:25:01
- It is?
- Yes.

:25:03
And now... would you
like to see the house?

:25:05
First, we open an account.
Then you transfer the money.

:25:09
Here is the legal description.
"Two oxen, two days."

:25:12
- I'm sorry.
- It's old-fashioned.

:25:13
The land is measured by
how long it would take two oxen

:25:17
to plow it.
:25:18
Oh.
Oh, that makes sense.

:25:28
Just like that?
:25:30
Before the money's
been transferred?

:25:32
It's a house, not a Vespa.
:25:34
What are you going to do,
steal it?

:25:37
Besides, Signor Martini
likes you.

:25:54
Okay. We'll take care
of the rest later.

:25:58
Normale.
:25:58
Normale?
:26:00
Normale.
:26:00
Normale.
:26:05
I have bought a house
in a foreign country.

:26:08
A house and the land it takes
two o xen two days to plow.

:26:12
Not having a plow or an o x,
:26:13
I'll have to take their word
on that.

:26:16
Buyer's remorse is
a very common affliction

:26:19
among new homeowners.
:26:20
Just because you have
a sudden urge to weep,

:26:24
that doesn't mean
you've made a mistake.

:26:26
Everybody knows old houses
have their quirks.

:26:31
Especially 300-year-old houses.
:26:35
I have inherited 10, 000
empty wine bottles, one grape,

:26:42
every issue of "La Nazione"
printed in 1958,

:26:46
and assorted previous tenants.
:26:50
Ugh!
