While Ezio Auditore and Leonardo da Vinci were in Romagna, they planned on sailing to Venice by boat. Leonardo had a pass, however, Ezio did not, and had to obtain one quickly before the boat set sail.
Ezio searched for a boat to help the screaming woman.
Caterina:Dio del Cielo! Aiutatemi! (For Christ's sake! Help me!) Qualcuno mi aiuti! Non so nuotare! (Somebody help me! I can't swim!) Aiuto! Qualcuno mi faccia scendere da quest' affare! Aiutatemi! (Help! Someone get me off this thing! Help me!)
Caterina was astounded at seeing Ezio simply swim across to her.
Caterina:What the hell is this?!
Ezio:I'm rescuing you.
Caterina:Without a boat? What are you going to do, carry me? Go get the boat!
Ezio arrived with the boat.
Ezio:Madonna.
Caterina:Oh, you're good. The ladies must like you.
Ezio:I wasn't looking to impress. Only to help someone in distress.
Caterina:Which is exactly WHY you impress. And you are Messer...?
Ezio:Auditore. But, please, call me Ezio.
Caterina:I'm Caterina. Now, Ezio, we must find you suitable reward... Do you have any suggestions?
Ezio:There is—perhaps—something you could help me with...
Caterina:I'm all ears...
Caterina spoke with the captain.
Caterina having a talk with the Captain
Captain:Yes Signora... Whatever you say Signora...
Caterina turned to Ezio.
Caterina:He won't trouble you any more. I... took care of it.
Ezio:Thank you, Caterina.
Caterina:Perhaps we'll see each other again... Should you ever find yourself in the city of Forlì, it would be my pleasure to welcome you...
Ezio:I look forward to enjoying your hospitality.
Caterina left.
Captain:Please accept my most humble apologies, Messere. (Sir.) Had I known...
Ezio:It's quite alright, my friend.
Ezio and Leonardo set sail for Venice.
Leonardo:Be careful, Ezio. Do you know who that was?
Ezio:My next conquest?
Leonardo:I don't think so, Ezio! That's Caterina Sforza, daughter of the Duca di Milano. Her husband -
Ezio:Husband?
Leonardo:Si. (Yes.) Her husband is the Lord of Forlì. That woman is as powerful and dangerous as she is young and beautiful.
Ezio:Sembra come una donna per me. (Sounds like my kind of lady.)
