[Older M�ximo] Hugo, do you know what day February 2nd is?

Sure. It's Groundhog Day.

Groundhog Day?

Groundhog Day?

Joe, stop the car.

No, I'm not stopping the car.

Okay. In Mexico, February 2nd is el D�a de la Candelaria.

And it is way better than Groundhog Day.

Because on our day,

whoever got the Baby Jesus

in their piece of the Rosca de Reyes cake on Three Kings Day, huh,

brings tamales for everyone.

Yeah, that kind of sounds complicated.

Yeah, that sounds way too complicated.

- Plus, groundhogs are cute. - Groundhogs are lame.

Mexico wins. End of discussion.

Anyway, in January of 1985, I found the baby.

So, on February 2nd,

I was bringing tamales for everyone at work.

And that month...

[chuckles] ...that month had been a busy one.

[Older M�ximo] Memo was finally working at the pool with me.

We made a great team.

The towels need to be rolled.

[Older M�ximo] And best of all, Memo made work more fun.

Even dealing with H�ctor.

I'd also started the job Don Pablo gave me to get closer to Diane.

At home, I was still dating Roberta.

Or so my mom thought.

Meanwhile, that girl, Isabel,

kept bringing posole into the resort...

and taking other things out.

[in Spanish] So, what'd you steal today?

A saltshaker, a tiny act of defiance.

[Older M�ximo, in English] It became our routine.

Every time I saw her, I'd ask what she stole.

[M�ximo, in Spanish] H�ctor's hair spray?

Now you're playing with fire.

What can I say?

- I live on the edge. - [H�ctor, in English] Where is it?

I'm losing volume.

[chuckles]

Anyway, it was finally February 2nd,

and everyone was excited because it was not Groundhog Day.

[sighs]

[Older M�ximo] But I had other things on my mind.

URGENT SETTLE OUTSTANDING BALANCE

Remember, last Christmas, my mother got her eye surgery.

[in Spanish] Thank you so much, Doctor.

My job is going to promote me this week.

I promise to pay it off by March.

Okay, but if you don't finish paying in the next three months,

I'll put her cataracts back in.

[laughs]

It's only a joke.

We'll just seize all your belongings.

[Older M�ximo, in English] But I did not get that promotion.

In fact, I was making less money after my deal with H�ctor.

My family had no idea,

but we were on the brink of disaster.

[M�ximo, in Spanish] We just got another notice

about the money we owe for my mom's surgery.

We're in real trouble.

But it's okay, I'll just have to push myself.

There's always a way. [Chuckles]

Of course there's always a way!

You're M�ximo Gallardo.

[chuckles] Thanks for reminding me of my name.

Ooh, can you also remind me to pick up the tamales at lunch?

My mom's making them right now.

Of course!

I can't wait for the tamale party.

I barely see Lorena anymore since I stopped working in the laundry room.

Lupe won't let you in there, huh?

Her exact words were,

"Set one foot in this room and I'll cut it off."

I'm hoping she meant my foot,

but that's not where she was pointing.

[Memo] Is that Fabi�n Solares? The gossip guy?

From Espectacular?

Yeah, it is. My mom watches him every day.

No, no, don't look at him.

Yeah, I don't want to get into trouble.

Hello, my handsome friends!

I hear you might have a certain famous tennis player staying with you.

Any info you can give me?

Sorry, I don't know anything.

Well, can I ask for your names?

We don't have names!

Come on, M�ximo.

[in English] We'll need six more of your dresses with the shoulder pads,

but quadruple the size of the pads.

Isn't that too much?

I want a plane to be able to land on these shoulders.

- Hey, Julia. - Hmm.

I figured it out. Okay.

You remember the guy at the Olympics who flew in on the jet pack?

That's how I want us to enter our wedding.

- [chuckles] - [Diane] Oh!

Your wedding plans are chugging right along. [Chuckles]

I am so... to hear that.

I could not be more... for you.

And I mean every word.

Hmm, we're thinking about December.

- This December? - Mm-hmm.

She really wants to lock you in before you change your mind, huh?

Well, it was actually my idea.

He really wants to lock you in before you change your mind, huh?

We can get it organized on time. It's just a small wedding, Diane.

Small. So smart. Fewer gifts to return if it doesn't work out, right?

Oh, I'm kidding, of course! [Chuckles]

Don't forget. Shoulder pads.

M�ximo.

Are you a tennis fan?

Uh, not really.

Are you asking because you are getting me a present?

I've always wanted a motorbike.

I'm creating an opportunity for you.

When you give Diane her coffee and paper today,

be a tennis fan.

[Don Pablo] Also, I believe your friend has arrived

for his exhibition match against his tennis rival.

A world-class player should get world-class service.

Maybe he should have a personal liaison.

- Hmm. - I can do it. I'm a tennis fan.

Oh, really?

The biggest. I love drop shots, the Eastern forehand grip.

I'm so glad Walter Wingfield developed the modern version of the game in 1873.

Great.

And maybe don't talk too much about tennis.

You got it.

[Older M�ximo] If I help a star tennis player,

I might just get the tips that we needed to survive.

Here we go. H�ctor's Nectar.

Whoa. [Chuckles] I think those shorts stayed in the drier too long.

Any smaller and I get to meet "H�ctorcito." [chuckling]

[chuckles] Making fun of the boss.

Love that, hey? Love.

Now, listen.

A very, very, very special guest

with a very, very, very, very, very big wallet

has requested her favorite chair today.

So, I need you to keep it free till she shows up.

- Can't we use our reserve sign? - Those never work.

Our guests from the US always plop down on top of them.

So, I need you to sit right on this chair.

So, m-my job is to sit here?

- You got it. - On this chair.

- That's right. - Just sit?

- Correct. - Right there?

- Bingo. - That's all?

[smacks lips] That's all.

- I do what? - You sit.

- I sit where? - On this chair.

- Besides that. - Not a thing.

- Okay, I sit here. - Yes, again.

- On this chair. - Are we on a loop?

- One more time... - Just sit down!

Okay.

This is important. Do you understand?

I better not see you standing up on the job.

[chuckles]

[sighs]

- [guest] Wow. - Hey. Hi.

- No pictures, please. - Oh, sorry.

Come on. I'm kidding.

Hi! I'm M�ximo.

Diane assigned me to be here for anything you need.

Oh, sweet! All right.

Now, I'm gonna work you, but there's a big tip waiting for you.

- Okay? - Mm-hmm.

First thing, I need a pool cabana set up with a TV

and the video game system I brought.

It's in the bag on my couch.

Right away. I'm happy to serve you.

Serve. [Chuckles]

Tennis pun. Good one.

Right! That's what I was going for.

Any messages?

Aaron Azzaro, but I know you knew that.

Not at the moment, Mr. Azzaro. But I'll be sure to let you know.

You do that, sweetie. [Clicks tongue]

God, what a jackass.

Nice front desk voice.

- I don't know what you mean, ma'am. - [chuckles]

[chattering]

Sara.

[in Spanish] What are you doing here?

You said you were going to the butcher.

What's going on with you two?

M�ximo broke up with Roberta this morning.

The poor girl kept crying, so I was comforting her.

I know you think he's an angel,

but there is a side to him you don't know

he cheated on her with a red-haired girl...

who's very, very tall...

Her name is...

- "Skye." - [gasps]

My M�ximo?!

[Older M�ximo, in English] I was on my way to meet Aaron with his video game, when...

[Diane] M�ximo.

This is my friend I was telling you about.

Your friend, the star tennis player?

Jann Berglund himself.

The Striking Viking.

The Speedy Swedey.

I don't care for those nicknames.

Please don't use those nicknames, M�ximo.

M�ximo here will take great care of you

and get you all ready for your match tomorrow with Aaron Azzaro.

I'll see you at dinner.

So, Diane tells me you will be devoted just to me. Correct?

[Older M�ximo] Suddenly, I had a chance to make twice as much money for my family.

But what was I supposed to do? Be in two places at once?

I'm all yours.

[Older M�ximo] There's always a way.

Good. Meet me in the gym in five minutes.

Okay. Not a problem.

I'm happy to serve you.

Like tennis.

Serve?

Okay. See you there.

Ugh.

- Hey! It's on! - [M�ximo chuckles]

All right. Check out my new game.

- Look, dude, it's me. [Chuckles] - [chuckling]

Wow, I feel like I'm court side at the Wimble... man.

- Come on. Let's play two-player. - [video game beeps]

Ah, the graphics are great. They just nailed the hair. [Chuckles]

Oh, no! The power mysteriously went out!

I'll go check.

[sighs]

[instrumental music plays over speakers]

Whoo! Okay, let's pump some iron. [chuckles]

[sighs] This music.

It's too slow.

This is barley-growing music.

Our musicians just got here, so I'll go have them change it. Hmm?

[singing Donna Summer's "She Works Hard for the Money" in Spanish]

[video game beeping]

Oh, good, the power's back on! Thanks, guys!

Finally! Let's do this.

Yes! [Chuckles] Right after I refill your drink.

Gotta hydrate for tomorrow's match.

[song continues]

This music is better. I feel energized.

Spot me for ten.

Or maybe we can see if you can hold this weight up for two minutes?

Is that a new kind of training?

Yes. Very cutting-edge.

Ready? And...

[Jann grunts]

[breathes heavily]

[song continues]

- Here you go. - Oh, thanks!

Okay, now sit your butt down and get your ass kicked.

Oh, whoops! That's mine.

[clears throat] Yeah, let's just play.

How much longer?

You're right. Better not to know.

[laughing]

- [video game announcer] "Bodacious." - In your face.

[chuckles] In my face. [Chuckles]

Whoa! Do not touch the hair.

Got it. You should go back to one-player while I re-refill your lemonade.

Nice job!

[Jann grunts]

[breathing heavily]

You know what?

I was starting to think I couldn't do it. [Inhales]

But you were right. You're a good trainer.

Hey. You did the work.

I didn't even need to be here.

Water?

[song fades]

Can you believe your mom doesn't want us to get married?

What are we gonna do about that?

Well, you know, keep in mind, okay,

she is a single mother, and her only child is getting married.

That's a big deal.

We need to be patient and sympathetic with her emotions,

and over time, she will come around.

- Promise. - You don't wanna confront her.

Scared to death.

[M�ximo sighs] Okay.

Aaron's reviewing match tapes, and Jann's at lunch,

so I can finally take a break.

Hmm. Lucky. I haven't had a break all day.

What?

Sitting in the sun all day is tiring.

How are you gonna keep this up?

If they find out you've been working for both of them, it's going to be bad.

It's gonna be worse if I don't pay off these debts.

I have to do this. I just need a little rest.

- You asked me to remind you about... - The tamales! I forgot the tamales.

While you're up, can you get me a... O-Okay, never mind.

[in Spanish] Are the tamales ready, Mom?

Sorry, I'm in a hurry...

Um... hi, everyone.

- Roberta! How are you, my love? - [all gasp]

How is she?!

Her heart is broken!

- It is? - Oh, my God, M�ximo!

You act like you didn't just break up with her this morning.

And that's why Mom saw me comforting her in town.

Yes...

That's right... I did that.

Thank you...

Listen to him, it's like he's proud of it!

Unbelievable.

So who is this Skye?

Skye is... a girl?

A girl you've been secretly seeing behind my back! [Scoffs]

I can't believe it.

Oh, right. Skye. Yes.

My secret girlfriend.

Well, he said it.

In case there was any doubt before,

- Skye is real. - [chuckles]

Here-

...Because you're crying.

- [cries] - [Nora] M�ximo.

How could you have done such a thing?

It's not clear to me either.

I'll explain everything later... Maybe.

Um...

Sorry, Roberta. Thanks, Mom!

- Men. - Why even bother with them?

Hmm. Hmm?

[cries]

[Older M�ximo, in English] The Roberta fiasco made me late, but I was hopeful

I could still get back to Aaron and Jann before anything bad could...

So why don't you and your stupid hair find a different hotel?

Stupid? Joke's on you.

Sports Illustrated said I look like a bird of prey.

[Older M�ximo] Okay, this was bad.

But as long as they didn't both see me, I could...

[lid rattles]

- [sighs] Tell him he has to leave. - Help me get rid of this guy!

[Older M�ximo] Nope. This was gonna be tough.

Don't worry. I got your back.

Get out of here, you.

Wait. Which one of us are you talking to?

I think it's pretty clear whose side I'm on.

So the other one, go on. Hit the road.

Wait. Whose side are you on?

Uh...

- Well... - [Don Pablo] Gentlemen.

Surely any differences you have

could be settled on the court tomorrow.

- No? - Ugh.

[M�ximo sighs]

M�ximo.

What's happening here?

I'm sorry. I got confused.

I met Aaron first, then Jann.

I really need the money. I served them both.

But I was cheating on them.

Just like I cheated on my pretend-girlfriend Roberta

with my other pretend-girlfriend...

[in Spanish] Skye.

[in English] Don't you know the saying of...

[in Spanish] ..."the dog with two sandwiches"?

[in English] You try too hard to have everything, you end up with nothing.

You are lucky your story won't end the same way.

Since you committed to Aaron first,

I'll find someone else to take care of Jann.

Impressing Diane will have to wait for another day.

[Older M�ximo] And so would that second big tip.

- [knocks] - Hi, Diane. May I?

Sure.

Chad and I just wanted to thank you so much

for helping us plan our wedding.

Oh, well, of course.

Unfortunately, at this time, we feel we need to make our own decisions.

We appreciate your understanding.

Hold on.

Are you using your front desk voice with me?

Again, your satisfaction is incredibly important to Chad and me.

Oh, you don't know who you're messing with.

I spent 20 years in Hollywood. I can play this game.

And I agree.

You two should make your own decisions.

I hope one day you'll be mature enough to do so.

Well, as you may know,

wisdom doesn't necessarily come with age, Diane. [Chuckles]

[chuckles] You'd be foolish not to listen to someone who's been married three times.

We're actually hoping to get it right the first time.

Too late. Who gets married in December?

- You're competing with Baby Jesus. - Good news then!

We just moved our wedding up to June.

What?

I-I don't know why, but you've never liked that I'm dating your son.

[stammers]

Okay. Well, honestly, no.

But it has nothing to do with you.

Obviously, I like you. We're business partners.

You two are just at different places in your lives.

You're not the right people for each other.

Well, you can't know that.

I can't?

Tell me, is Chad really the love of your life?

Yes, he is.

And we're getting married. In June.

And we would really appreciate it if you can just be happy for us and on board.

Please.

[chuckles]

Okay. Maybe I went too far. I'm sorry.

I need to let you make your own decisions.

And I do hope you're right about you and Chad.

Trust me, I want nothing more than for the two of you to be happy.

Thank you.

And I told him, "Not today, but maybe tomorrow."

Hey, Adriana. Looking good.

I think Pam Dawber has that outfit.

It's hard to remember. We've hung out a bunch.

Anyway, I got something for you.

Just thought you would like it.

Cool. Thanks.

- So I was thinking maybe Saturday... - Yeah, And I...

Yeah, that went well.

Whoa, so you talked to her

- and you convinced her? - Mm-hmm.

I wish I would've had you around when I was 15.

I could've got that cool tattoo with dolphins crisscrossing.

- Yeah, I'm with your mom on that one. - [scoffs]

[in Spanish] Isabel! Want some tamales? How are you?

[both chuckling]

[in English] Oh, thanks, but I can't stay.

I'm just making my delivery

and thought I'd say hi to M�ximo if he was around.

Oh. Well, I... I haven't seen him,

but it's weird 'cause he's the one who brought us the tamales.

[chuckles] So, what's M�ximo's deal?

I think he's Mexican.

[chuckles] No, I mean what do you think of him?

Oh, we love M�ximo.

- Yeah. - Are you thinking about asking him out?

Maybe. Julia?

Uh... You should.

She should, babe. You should. You'd be really cute together.

[chuckles] Okay, maybe I will. I'll keep you posted.

[Julia] Okay.

Ah, some of these just aren't as full as the other ones.

- [in Spanish] Hey! - Hey.

I didn't want you to miss out.

[chuckles] Oh, thank you! That's so sweet!

- That guest still hasn't come? - [chuckles]

You've sat here the entire day.

It's like some sort of torture. [Chuckles]

[chuckles]

Oh, my God.

The guest does not exist!

This morning I made fun of H�ctor's shorts,

so as payback, he made me sit here all day in the sun.

It is torture!

[in English] That short shorts-wearing bastard.

[sighs]

[in Spanish] Well, at least I'm free now.

Come on, let's get back to that party.

After a quick bathroom stop.

Maybe not so quick,

- I drank eight glasses of water. - [both laugh]

Wow, how could I have fallen for his lie about the big tip? [Chuckling]

[in English] Right this way, please. Here we go. Watch your step.

Where did he...

Oh, well.

- Here you go, Miss Leon or a. - Thank you, H�ctor.

[gasps] You know you don't have to, but thank you.

I'll be right back with a couple of mango margaritas.

[speaking Spanish]

[sighs] Okay. So, obviously, we need to be even more careful.

- Here's what I'm thinking... - Sara.

I'll tell my mom I'm volunteering at the library,

and she'll never go check 'cause she hates being quiet.

Sara...

- What? - [sighs]

I can't do this anymore.

It's too much.

All the lying and sneaking around...

My parents are getting suspicious too, and they...

[gasps] I just can't risk them finding out.

Are you breaking up with me?

[gasps] I don't want to.

Then don't!

[Sara sniffles]

We have to stop seeing each other for a while.

[crying]

[crying]

[in English] Okay! That's everything you asked for.

Is there anything else you need?

[breathes heavily] No.

That's it for today. Thanks. Hey.

- Are you ready for your tip? - [chuckles]

- You deserve it. You've earned it. - Yes, sir.

- [chuckles] - Okay.

Now, the key to anticipating your opponent's next move

is to watch their eyes during their back swing.

Oh. Okay.

Awesome. Thanks again, buddy.

S-So, m-my tip?

Yeah, that was it.

People pay me thousands for that kind of advice.

As great as that was, I was really hoping for some actual money.

Wow. Not enough for you, huh?

You people. [Chuckles]

Here you go. Five bucks. I bet that's worth a lot down here. Right?

[Hugo] No, that's not fair. You worked your ass off for that jerk.

[Older M�ximo] Even worse, I needed that money.

My family was on the edge. We were at risk of losing everything.

But then...

I remembered.

[echoing] Ah, the graphics are great. They just nailed the hair.

[Older M�ximo] If you really stretch yourself...

[Aaron] Whoops. That's mine.

Do not touch...

[distorted] ...the hair.

[Older M�ximo] ...there's always a way.

[Older M�ximo] The trick was I had to stretch not what I could do,

but what I was willing to do.

[no audible dialogue]

[announcer, in Spanish] "Espectacular!"

[in Spanish] We escaped the guards

and we were able to get into Las Colin as.

Aaron Azzaro will be coming out any moment.

[gasps] There he is!

[Aaron, in Spanish] Thank you.

[in English] Aaron Azzaro.

Sources tell us that this isn't your real hair.

Any comment?

What? [chuckles] That's... That's... That's a lie.

That's a hundred percent... You know, it's... it's... Oh!

Go... Um... This isn't what it looks like! Okay?

- [laughing] - [Older M�ximo, in English] That evening,

I told my family we would finally pay off our debts.

For at least one night,

we got to forget all our problems and celebrate.

Yes! You got the money and you got revenge.

You won.

No, Hugo. I lost.

I had crossed a line that I shouldn't have.

[Older M�ximo] And soon, my deal with Fabi�n

would come back to haunt me in ways that I never could have imagined.

A dark time in my life was approaching.

Oh, boy. Time for lunch.

- [sighs] Come on. - Joe, it's my treat.

Yeah, no shit.

Anyway, that night,

I had a feeling that I just couldn't shake.

Who was I becoming, Hugo?

How could I still be proud to be M�ximo Gallardo?

It would be a long time before I had the answer.
