Original subtitles

Hi, Uxía, uh, Uxi…

I don't know what to call you, I'm sorry.

It's just that, well…

seeing you the other day brought up a lot of memories and…

I wanted to talk to you,

and let you know that, well, I'm alone, and…

I'm not with anyone.

Watch where you're going, asshole!

Jesus! You almost ran me over!

Sorry, I just…

That's it, and I know you probably don't care,

but let me know if you'd like to hang out. Yeah. Bye.

Well, that was my ex-boyfriend Miguel. What do you think?

-Seems like a good guy. -Yeah?

I think he wants to get back together.

It seems that way, doesn't it? And what do you think?

-Well, I'd do it. -But he slept with a pianist.

Come on, girl, sleeping with someone…

It's not as big a problem as it seems.

Of course, I'm pretty old. Have some chorizo.

So sleeping with someone isn't… isn't that bad?

-So should we meet up? I don't know. -Which chorizo? Iberian?

No, uh, I want advice, please, Quiroga.

Come on, chorizo has minerals in it.

Look, for me, it's too early for chorizo.

You know I can tell that you're not okay?

Oh, for God's sake, Sabela, I am perfectly fine.

You are not fine.

You look like a panda on his way to the slaughterhouse.

You think I look like I have two black eyes?

No, maybe more like a raccoon.

Yeah, but raccoons also look like they have two black eyes.

Time to start the day.

The day starts whether you want it to or not.

Today is gonna be wonderful.

-Today is gonna be amazing. -Of course it is.

OLD DOG, NEW TRICKS

Falsifying a public document, uh, ongoing swindling…

…embezzlement of, uh, public funds,

and belonging to a criminal organization.

I mean, do I look like I'm criminally organized?

You know? Do… do I look like someone who organizes themselves criminally?

-I mean, do I? -Uh, well, no, of course not. No, no, no.

It looks… It looks pretty bad, like, really bad.

I mean, it sucks.

Yeah, I agree, yeah.

But you can fix this, right?

Oh, no, no, no. I just… I don't know this sort of thing.

Well, it's…it's… I know about sadness, anxiety, depression, but you're, uh…

You're going through something… that's more of a… a lawyer thing.

Someone who does law, so…

Hmm?

-I'm just feeling so, so sad, you know? -Well…

We're all sad. It's normal to feel sad, Antón.

It's just what life is.

Oh, and my friend said that I look like a raccoon.

Leslie, Leslie, Leslie, Leslie, Leslie, Leslie…

Did you know a guinea pig in the wild

will live approximately half as long as you?

Isn't that ironic, Leslie?

That losing your freedom…

…can make you live much longer.

Leslie, Leslie, Leslie, Leslie!

-Ángela. -I'm sorry, Antón, I'm sorry.

Don't be, everything's normal here.

I'm just having a relaxed conversation with Leslie,

who's about to give birth very soon.

Everything's normal. So what's up, Ángela?

Well, clients are out there,

and we're running behind and there's a lot of clients.

Leslie, there are more clients than grains of sand.

This business is a gold mine, huh?

-Víctor. -How are you?

-Did Carmiña's limp get worse? -No, no. She's recovered well from that.

It's my wife. She wants to put her to sleep.

As in permanently?

These things are always hard, Víctor.

But there's no doubt about it.

Unfortunately, it is an osteosarcoma.

Your wife's vet made the right diagnosis. Hmm.

Okay then. That's great.

I'm gonna have to get a third opinion.

-Víctor. -Let's go, Carmiña.

Víctor. Víctor.

Let's be rational. Carmiña's not doing great.

What does your wife think?

That Carmiña is really suffering.

But it's not a problem for her…

…putting her to sleep.

'Cause that way she doesn't have to see me every two weeks.

You've separated?

No, no, we're not separated. It's just some space.

-How much space are we talking about? -Just some space.

-Are her clothes gone? -They are. Everything's gone.

But we're not separating.

She's confused. She needs to find out what she wants and…

So do I. I have to find out what I want.

Víctor, she took her clothes, you think she's coming back?

She's coming back with her clothes and… everything. Most likely.

Sure she is, yeah.

I've got a minute, shall we grab a coffee?

-You break it, you buy it. -Uh, right.

-Is it a dog? -It's a sex doll for dogs.

Two hundred euros.

Well, some animals are just, uh, very desperate and under a lot of stress.

-Miguel, I got your message. -Yeah. About that…

-I have a problem and… -Yeah, you have a problem and…

you feel alone.

Yeah, I am super alone.

You're alone and it's not easy to be alone, but you…

But you should know that I don't give a damn, okay?

I mean, I really don't give a damn, at all. Okay?

And things are different now

so you can't just show up here expecting me to solve your issues, okay?

'Cause I'm different. Understand?

And, well, that it…

-It won't be easy. -No, it won't be easy.

It won't be, but maybe…

Uh, what won't be easy?

-Well, fighting, Miguel. -Um…

It's not gonna be easy.

Fighting.

Hmm.

-Miguel. -Hmm?

Uh, why are you here?

Well, I want custody of Chusky.

Uh-huh.

-Custody of Chusky? -Sh… shared custody.

We adopted him together, and he's my cat too and…

I just feel really alone and I… I really miss him.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

-Well, but only if it's okay. -No, no, no.

Look, I'm gonna have to think about it because…

-Think about it. -It's not that simple, Miguel.

Don't get the wrong idea about me, you know?

-So there wasn't anything else? -Nope.

…your pet to Kawanda.

Chusky.

Chusky.

…our satisfaction survey…

Uxía, do you remember Víctor, Carmiña's owner?

Carmiña.

-I'm going, let me know. -I will.

-Hello, Miguel. -Antón.

Best of luck with all your final exams.

Hope you took enough notes.

Well…

-…it's time to have the talk. -♪ Kawanda, Kawanda ♪

"Life is a circle."

"It begins and ends in the same place: with nothing."

"And it's important to properly close the circle to be able to overcome

and move……and move on."

-But they're… They're right. -Uxía.

Okay, let's move on to the signature.

Well, Víctor, uh, welcome to Kawanda.

It's…… it's the final walk.

And… if you sign, we'll help you to close the circle.

Don't cry, Víctor. Please, I'm begging you, do not cry.

I don't want to get divorced. I… I… I don't wanna lose Carmiña.

Of course, you don't. She's a very beautiful dog.

She really is.

So beautiful, yeah.

When you find something that… that's… that's worth it,

you have to fight.

Yeah, there are wars that are worth fighting

and wars where you have to surrender, and…

I agree with you.

We have to fight. Don't you fight for Sabela every day?

Oh, every day, Uxía, even public holidays.

No, come on.

So if Sabela cheated on you, would you not fight for her, Antón?

Uxía, we're here to sign the certificate and choose a pretty urn, this is not…

I'd forgive her.

I would forgive her.

For all of it.

Maybe this is what love is.

Because I got a cat with Miguel.

We've a cat, we're a family. You can't ignore that.

Víctor, this is what we're going to do.

You're going to sign for Carmiña's sedation

so that Carmiña can go to Kawanda heaven while the three of us,

unfortunately, stay in this world,

living in fear…

-Unable to face the destiny… -You're right.

…that's coming toward us like a high-speed train.

Therefore, we need to embrace the idea that, just like your marriage,

life ends and you need to think of Carmiña and, I mean… You need to sign.

You gotta sign it, Víctor.

-Sorry. -It's time to sign.

You know, you're very brave for closing the circle.

-Thank you. -Hmm.

Okay, I'll leave you both.

-You're being super brave. -Thank you.

-Chusky. -Sorry?

-Chusky. -Huh?

Chusky.

Miguel is Chusky's father, so he has the right to share custody.

-Of course. -Right?

-Yeah, yeah, go fight, go fight. -We have to fight.

I'm gonna fight as well.

-Antón, I'm borrowing your car, okay? -Okay.

Hey, why?

I understand it now. I gotta take Chusky to Miguel and fight for it!

Hey, second gear doesn't work!

Hello, Miguel.

Uxía, you came!

And you too as well, Antón!

-And good old Chusky. -That's great.

Thank you.

Here, have Chusky.

-You guys want some coffee? -No, no.

Um, I'd prefer wine, Miguel.

What a beautiful place you have.

Chusky, it's been so long!

Do you already know the date for… for your finals?

Mm-hmm. Yep.

Hey, buddy.

Would you say that you… are a good lawyer?

No. Well, I've never practiced.

You gotta pass the bar to do that so…

Oh, I'm just asking for a friend who needs a lawyer and, uh…

Yeah? What type of lawyer?

Well, that's a very good question.

I don't know, like a really fucking good one?

No, I mean, like, criminal or civil…

Yeah? You don't know?

He didn't tell me. That's a very good question.

Miguel, can you come here?

Go, go.

No, thank you.

Well, then. Um…

I'm gonna be real clear. Why were you really at the store?

Uh, for Chusky?

Seriously? For Chusky?

-So you don't want to fight for me? -No, yeah, yeah.

-Seriously? -Yeah.

-Do you want to or not? -Yeah, yeah. Yes.

"Therefore a punishment of three to six years in prison should be given

to anybody who falsifies a public document,

or alters an existing one." Jesus, you really are assholes.

Uxía, I want to get back together. I do.

-Well, me too, I… -You do?

I think so.

But… but we gotta do it right.

-Yeah. -Look, I get that…

I mean, I get that…

that with me, you won't get that initial excitement.

No.

Miguel, if you like someone, just say.

-Don't fucking lie to me, okay? Don't! -Yeah. No. Uh-uh.

-And you're gonna do the laundry. -Yep.

I don't want to go to your parents' on Sundays.

-We won't go, we won't go. We won't go. -No. I don't want to.

-We won't go. -One last thing, Miguel.

So, in answer to your question before, he would…

he would need a criminal lawyer, okay?

I'll just visit them on my own.

-Yeah? -Mm-hmm.

Hmm.

-Okay. -Wow…

No. Um…

-If we're gonna do things the right way… -Mm-hmm.

-Uh, I gotta close circles. -Mm-hmm.

Uh…

Uh, Chusky, you're staying with Dad. Antón, come on.

Miguel, Miguel, Miguel!

He's gonna need a criminal lawyer.

But what are the charges? What has he done?

-No, he hasn't been charged yet. -So then what does he need a lawyer for?

The thing is… Listen, my friend is just stupid, Miguel.

-Antón! -Let's go.

Hey, you know, the piano guy isn't actually that stupid, huh?

-Of course he's not. -Right.

Antón, why do you need a criminal lawyer?

I don't need a criminal lawyer, I was asking for a friend.

Which friend?

You shouldn't be so nosey. Some things can't be talked about.

It's just, you have so many friends, don't you?

Is it for Sabela?

It's for Sabela. But do me a favor and don't say a word.

Poor thing. Antón!

Uxía, I'm not gonna say anything else, okay? So, please, drop it, all right?

I need the car keys, please. I know, don't worry.

I'll be 30 minutes, okay? Or an hour, maximum.

"All your pet needs, all you need. Kawanda family."

"Family."

It's a hell of a word. Like, it's so deep.

Please, don't start this, Víctor.

-But it's true, it's a very deep word. -Yeah.

Think about it.

Now that we're an orphan family.

Maybe that's it. Something's missing.

Another Carmiña, a girl.

Or a Carmiño. Or a Carmiñe,

I… I don't care, you know I'm real modern.

I've met someone.

He's a pilot. He flies airplanes.

He's called Jessy, and we've gone on quite a few dates.

-Uh, we met on Tinder, know what I mean? -Okay, okay, okay, I get it.

-I know what you're saying. -What?

You're trying to say that you're polyamorous.

Right? And that you wanna be in a throuple with liquid love and all that shit.

-You're unbelievable. -What the hell is wrong with you, Víctor?

Oh, man…

Hi, guys, I'm so sorry for being late today.

Antón.

We're getting there, Víctor, we're getting there, okay?

I know all this is very difficult, so…

It's difficult but you're doing the right thing for Carmiña, okay?

And that's it. Now do you wanna…

Do you wanna come with me into the operating room

or would you rather stay out here?

-We'll come in with you. -No, I'll stay here, I can't watch.

We'll stay, Antón. I think that's better. Thank you.

Okay, then, well… Well, let's do this.

Darling.

Thank you.

You can do this, stay strong.

Thanks.

Let's go, Carmiña.

-Come on, Carmiña. -She knows.

Come on.

Come on.

Hey, it's okay.

Life will always end.

'Cause it's a circle.

It opens and it closes.

Or… or it might not close. Right?

Oh, asshole!

Hey! Hey, Nuno.

Hello.

-Uh, thanks for coming. -Oh, that's all good.

-You want coffee or…? -No, because… Well, this won't take long.

So, first of all,

I wanted to apologize 'cause I got a bit nervous the other day.

-And I left. -Don't worry about it, I understood.

Really, you did?

Yeah.

That's good, because…

I'm gonna be very clear. I'm gonna be really honest, okay? Um…

I'm in the process of closing circles.

-Did you finish early, or…? -No, I'm gonna go back.

-Where's Antón? -Antón's at Kawanda.

-Closing circles. -Closing circles.

Do you know what's wrong with him? Something's wrong but he won't say.

He's worried about you, but in a good way, you know?

Why is he worried?

'Cause of your thing with the criminal lawyer.

He thinks I'm cheating with a criminal lawyer?

Seriously? I'm talking here. Thank you.

Closing circles.

Closing circles.

Is it because of my dad and the council? Did he tell you!?

He hasn't told me anything, not a single thing.

Don't defend him, Uxía. Don't defend him.

Um,

Uxía, look, I've got some problems to deal with.

Some problems?

Well, yeah.

-Um, uh, could we go somewhere outside? -Yeah, sure.

Can they do that?

Sure they can.

They can do what they want. The Andrades are crooks.

Your uncle was right.

They've bribed half of Galicia.

Well, they are pretty shady.

Yeah, but… I'm not like that. I can't be bought.

And because I won't help them, they'll… fire me.

What will you do?

Um, go to Vigo.

I'll get a job as… anything.

Oh. And… you'll move on?

On… on to another career or…?

Uh…

That's good, wow.

Um, you wanted to say something about circles?

Uh, yeah. I did.

Well, the thing is…

You know, we can't leave circles open, Nuno.

Do you see? We can't just go around living our lives,

leaving circles open.

Like, it… it's time to make decisions and you have to sacrifice things, okay?

So get your head straight!

-My head straight? -Just figure it out!

-Wait a minute… -Get it together, okay?

I have to go.

Wait, Uxía…

I really don't care, Víctor, what don't you understand?

You can't just not care. She's your dog, your responsibility.

And I've paid for my half, but there's nothing more to say.

But how can you be so cold and…?

What, you don't care anymore?

Carmiña is gone. It's over, okay? She's dead, that's it.

You're unbelievable.

Well then,

anyway, the eco-friendly urn might be the best choice.

-I guess, yeah. -I guess, yeah.

Or this urn here, that… that plays a song when you open it.

Uxía, could you take over? I've got work deadlines.

-Yeah? Thank you. -Thanks, Bernardo.

Sorry for your loss.

-I don't know. -Hmm.

Eco-friendly? It… it seems the best.

I really don't care anymore, Víctor.

Well…

Well, Víctor…

How are you doing?

Not great.

We wanted to spread her ashes in… in the countryside somewhere.

Oh, but that's beautiful. What a great way to close the circle.

-Antón told me you're coming. -Uh, really?

-Mm-hmm. -That so?

-That's cute. -It is. Antón's wonderful.

Such a good man.

He knows how to listen, and… and he's very patient.

-Yeah? Wow. -You feel like you can tell him things.

-Hey! -Hey!

Miguel, why are you here? I'm working.

I… I just wanted to say I'm feeling a little confused.

Hmm, right, but Miguel, I'm pretty busy right now.

I messed up. I really did.

I behaved like an asshole, but I'm really sorry, Uxía.

-I really can't talk right now. -I'm just not sure how you feel.

-Uxía? -Seriously?

Um…

Yeah, I'll… I'll be there in a second.

Miguel, I have to go help some clients. I'm sorry, okay?

Come… come over here, and you can tell me… why you're here.

Because I'm working, Nuno. Do you understand?

Well, I got it together, like you told me to.

-Right. -And I bit the bullet.

-I reported them. -I'm sorry, what are you talking about?

The Andrades, those crooks have even bribed people

in the regional government.

Oh… oh, well that's great, but now is not the time, Nuno.

-Wait a second. -What?

I… think I love you, Uxía. I really think so.

-Uh, Nuno… Now is not… -Uxi, is everything all right?

-You know each other? -She's my girlfriend.

-Uh, well… -Your…?

We're not exactly, we… we're closing circles, big circles.

Uh, is it the same circle as me?

-It's not the same circle. -Is this man bothering you?

-He's not bothering me. -Is he bothering you? What is this?

Let me introduce you. Miguel, Nuno, Nuno, Miguel.

-Did you just call me an idiot? -No, calm down…

-Stop being an asshole! -You're the one being an asshole.

That's enough, you two!

But Miguel, yes, you're totally right. You're a fucking asshole,

and you really hurt me.

But you know what, Nuno? To be honest, you're a fucking asshole as well.

And both of you can just go to hell! So get the fuck out of the store!

Back to work, okay?

The circle of life.

What a circle, right? Because it's not a perfect circle, no.

It's an imperfect circle. And deformed as well.

But at the end of the day, it's a circle.

-Víctor, come on, now. -What?

-So today Carmiña… -Are you totally fucked?

…leaves us, to close her circle.

I'm pretty fucked, yeah.

She's going…

Are you choosing the piano guy?

Hmm.

-…play at the dog park. -Numero Nuno?

-Alone. -To eat her…

-I chose to be alone. -…bone-shaped biscuits.

-Better to be alone. -I'm done adopting strays.

Nuno reported the Andrades.

-What? -They're involved in loads of scams.

They're total crooks.

Like, a lot of shady shit, but I don't really know.

But they're going down, Antón. One by one. All of them.

And so, Carmiña, you're leaving us today

so you can fly.

Although… …you never liked flying, did you?

Víctor, would you just…?

Anyway,

Carmiña,

spread your wings, and go to doggy heaven.

And above all, be happy.

Well, it's over.

It's over.

It's over.

In this type of situation,

there's only one place where we can go with dignity.
