Povera Ketty! Listen! It’s her neighbor, the watchmaker. That old man is deaf! Bah! Poor Ketty! Joe: Pur troppo, Joe, ci son notizie, notizie tristi. Joe: (reading) But for Joe, there’s sad news. Tutte: Joe, che c’è? Brutte nuove? Su, coraggio! All: Joe, what is it? Bad news? Come on, be brave! Joe: E anche nonna se n’è andata! Joe: (expressing anger) Grandma has passed away! Joe dries his tears. Whisky! Whiskey! Nick: C’è fuori uno straniero. Nick: There’s a stranger outside. Minnie: Chi è? Minnie: Who is it?
Sonora: T’aspetto? Sonora: (to Trin) Should I wait for you? Trin: Vengo! Trin: (to Sonora) I’m coming! Happy: Gettoni! Happy: Chips! Sid: Un re. Un asso. Sid: A king. An ace. Bello: Maledetto!
