Hi, in the TV series Il Cacciatore they've arrested a man who's not very smart. This is part of the dialogue:
SAVERIO Lei ha ucciso almeno nove persone. C’è l’eragastolo per questo…
PIETRO ROMEO Quattordici. I conti me li sono fatti pure bene io. Ava assai dottore.
What I don't understand, is the 'ava assai'. He's Sicilian.
Could anyone help me?

Ava comes from Sicilian dialect. You can find the meaning here: http://ilovesicilies.altervista.org/parole-siciliane-da-cono...
However, since I'm not from Sicily, I cannot be sure that this is the appropriate translation...
