Judge: (Hammers three times) Court is now in session.
Guard: Case number 491, your honor. The people versus Luca Antonio Renaldo Geppetto Baldini.
Pinocchio: My papa! (hugs Geppetto)
Geppetto: It will be alright, Pinocchio.
Baker's wife: (enraged) There he is, your honor! That little mutilator! He ruined my cannolis! He ruined my fruit tarts!
Judge: Silence, woman!
Baker's wife: He even ruined my grandmother's torta della nonna with the pinoli and the chocolate...
Judge: Are you done?
Baker's wife: No, I am not done! I would... (the judge hammers loudly)
Judge: Arrest her!
Baker's wife: (the guards attempt to grab her and her husband) Now, I'm done. I'm done. (the bakers sit back down)
Judge: Now, since you, Geppetto, are responsible for this, uh, puppet, how do you plead?
Geppetto: Guilty, sir. (the crowd gasps)
Judge: You will pay twenty-thousand lira to the bakers and ten-thousand to the court.
Geppetto: I--I don't have it. That's--that's three years wages.
Judge: If you cannot pay, then you will go to debtors prison! (hammers hardly) Three years locked away!
Lorenzini: Your honor! I propose the court allow me to pay the fines for this poor, impoverished peasant.
Judge: This is most generous of you, Signore Lorenzini.
Lorenzini: Kindness is my weakness. Of course, no good deed should go without obligation, so all l ask is to keep Pinocchio in return.
Geppetto: Lorenzini, please, take any other puppet! l will work for you day and night the rest of my life!
Lorenzini: Geppetto, is it just money for you? Pinocchio needs a home. All you can offer him is table scraps and cold winter nights, but with me, he will have a family.
Pinocchio: What's a family, Papa?
Lorenzini: My goodness, such a heartbreaking question, one no one should ever have to ask. Pinocchio, l can give you a life other little boys only dream of.
Judge: What is your decision, Geppetto? (Geppetto looks around the court room. Without any thought or feeling, he looks down at Pinocchio)
Geppetto: Pinocchio...
Pinocchio: Yes, Papa?
Geppetto: Listen to me. You're going to go with that man now.
Pinocchio: But I want to be with you.
Geppetto: I know, but you see--you see, there--there's no other choice.
Pinocchio: You're my papa.
Geppetto: I can't be your papa! You're made of wood! You're not flesh! You're not a real boy! (snaps) NOW, GO! FOR EVERYONE'S GOOD!! (Pinocchio begins to tear up after hearing the harsh words from Geppetto)
Lorenzini: Let's go, son. (Pinocchio walks down the steps and Lorenzini picks him up) Good boy. (Lorenzini carries Pinocchio out of the court room as everyone watches sadly)
Pinocchio: I love you, Papa! (the scene cuts to Geppetto walking home)
Leona: (peeking from her window) Geppetto... I'm sorry.
Geppetto: Why does everything good get thrown to the beasts? (Geppetto continues walking home as Leona sadly watches him)
