GC: SPEAK UP BELLO! I CAN HARDLY MAKE OUT THE WORDS!

BE: ((Blank stare))... ((Louder)) Miglior cuccagna Per un barbiere Vita piu nobile No non si da. La ran la lera, La ran la la.

GC: Sweet Mother of Hestia! I still can't make out the words.

LK: I think it's Italian.

GC: ((Blank stare))... I don't see what difference that makes. And don't you think it's a bit rude to call Bello an "it"?

LK: That's not what I meant. They're singing in Italian.

GC: Why, that's absurd. I'll hear no more of your wild speculations, bard.

LK: But...

GC: ((Glares at Leicky)) Not. A. Word.

Figaro agrees to get Count Almaviva into Doctor Bartolo's home so that the Count can meet Rosina. Rosina (Trancer) steps out to the balcony.

GC: Hey, that looks like...

Trancer (TR): Non e venuto ancor. Forse...

WI: O mia vita, Mio nume, mio tesoro. Vi veggo alfine! alfine...

TR: Oh che vergogna!... Vorrei dargli il biglietto.

GC: ((Blank stare))

LK: (So, our little Miss Firefighter can sing)

GC: That can't be Trancer. ((Mutters)) Must have had too much Frapuccino before I came here.

LK: ((Shocked)) Goddess! Not you too!

GC: ((Quietly)) Yes, I've succumbed to the siren lure of Starbucks.

Doctor Bartolo comes out and puts a stop to the incipient romance. Rosina drops a note to Count Almaviva. Later, Doctor Bartolo leaves his home to see his friend.

Michael Rudy (MR): Fra momenti io torno; Non aprite a nessuno. Se don Basilio Venisse a cercarmi, che m'aspetti. Le mie nozze con lei meglio e affrettare; Si, dentr'oggi vo' finir quest'affare.

[He mentions he intends to marry Rosina, his niece.]

GC: What?!? I thought only Greek Gods were into that!

LK: ((Blank stare))

GC: Like you don't know what I'm talking about!

LK: ((Blush))
