In the after-credits scene of episode 2 of _91 Days_ , Nero questions Avilio
about the circumstances of Vanno's death. Crunchyroll translates the dialogue
as follows:

> AVILIO: He stole Vanno's gun. I shot Serpente, but it was too late.
>
> BARBERO: Your hands weren't tied?
>
> AVILIO: Serpente said he'd let me pray. Then he tied up Vanno...

Is that actually his alibi? It doesn't make a whole lot of sense that Serpente
would have to steal Vanno's gun if Avilio were already tied up. And why would
Serpente let Avilio pray _and then_ tie up Vanno? This doesn't make a whole
lot of sense.

What was Avilio's alibi during the after-credits scene in episode 2?


No! This is an egregious case of getting your implied referents mixed up. The
Japanese dialogue is:

> AVILIO: ヴァンノが銃を奪われて…俺がセルペンテを撃ったが、遅かった。
>
> BARBERO: 縄をかけなかったのか。
>
> AVILIO: 祈らせてくれと、セルペンテが。それでヴァンノは縄を…

Here's what this actually means:

> AVILIO: He stole Vanno's gun. I shot Serpente, but it was too late.
>
> BARBERO: **You didn't tie his hands?**
>
> AVILIO: **Serpente asked us to let him pray. Then Vanno untied his
> hands...**

This obviously makes a whole lot more sense. Avilio's alibi starts out the
same as what actually happened - Vanno captures Serpente during the
assassination attempt on Fango. But Avilio then claims that rather than
begging to be spared, Serpente actually asks Vanno to let him pray. When Vanno
unties Serpente's hands, Serpente presumably wrestles for Vanno's gun and
shoots him before Avilio brings Serpente down.
