Synopsis: Water levels are rising, and Venice is disappearing bit by bit. Carlo has a small boat and can bring divers to the good places in the neighborhood, where sculptures (mostly) are just sitting there, unobserved. It's better to move them to a new position, where they can be admired. This time the destination is Japan. And Carlo ends up shouting at his customers.
