Elderly Woman: Eh. (to Maria) Go ahead.
Maria: Thanks.
Elderly Woman: The Republic is in chaos! Chaos! I'm 92 years old and I've never seen it this bad! I was born during the Monarchy! I asked them for some orange juice here, and there isn't any! I can't believe it! Are you a foreigner too?
Maria: Yes, but I understand Italian.
