One day, Antonio,
in the straw house,

:32:04
is sittin' around,
pickin' his teeth,

:32:06
watchin' television,
:32:07
when he hears a knock on the door.
:32:10
It's a soft knock.
The door's made of straw.

:32:12
Outside he hears,
"Big Bad Wolf,

:32:14
"I'm here to collect
my protection money."

:32:16
This is money that the wolf charges
them every month not to eat them.

:32:20
Protection money.
They'd give money in an envelope.

:32:23
Antonio was just sick of it.
He doesn't want to pay the wolf.

:32:26
So Antonio says, "Forget it!
I'm not payin' you anymore!"

:32:30
Now, this of course,
makes the wolf very irate.

:32:32
So, he says, "I am gonna huff,
I am gonna puff,

:32:35
and I am gonna b-b-b-b-blow
your house down!"

:32:39
Antonio is very, very upset,
and the wolf huffs

:32:42
and he puffs... blows it down.
:32:45
Now, Antonio is losing
his little pig mind,

:32:47
running around
screaming and yelling.

:32:49
His house is ruined.
He's got no insurance.

:32:51
He runs
to his buddy Joseppi's house.

:32:53
Boom, boom, boom.
:32:54
Joseppi, let me in!
The wolf just...

:32:56
- "He blew it d..."
- "Yes, he blew it down!

:32:59
Come on inside, sit down,
have an espresso, relax."

:33:01
They're freakin' out.
:33:03
Next thing you know...
boom, boom, boom.

:33:05
Who do you think it is?
:33:07
Big Bad Wolf.
:33:08
Exactly.
The Big Bad Wolf.

:33:09
Joseppi says, "Forget it.
I'm not gonna give money either."

:33:13
Wolf says,
"All right, I'm a huff.

:33:16
I'm a puff, and I'm gonna...
b-b-blow your house down!"

:33:22
There's sticks all over the street.
:33:23
People are slipping and falling...
like a John Woo film.

:33:26
It's crazy!
:33:28
Now these two pigs are
out of their... minds.

:33:31
Don't know what to do.
:33:33
They run to their buddy Fredo's
:33:34
with the big brick house.
:33:37
Boom, boom.
:33:37
He blew down our house.
:33:39
Fredo says, "All right, come in."
:33:40
"Help. He's gonna cut us.
He's gonna eat us."

:33:42
Fredo's like,
"Please, have an espresso?

:33:44
"Calm down. Relax.
I'll take care of it."

:33:47
Fredo is as cool as a cucumber.
Walks over to the phone.

:33:51
He dials some associates
and hangs up the phone.

:33:55
The next thing you know...
big black Cadillac limo

:33:58
pulls up in front
of Fredo's brick house.
