For Fernanda del Carpio,

it was the date she took as her true birth.

For Aureliano Segundo,

it was both the beginning and the end of happiness.

ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF SOLITUDE

The queen has arrived!

The Queen of Madagascar is in Macondo! She's here!

-Bravo! -We're married!

Long live the queen!

Buend�as!

Let Macondo celebrate!

The queen has returned, and she is now a Buend�a!

Cheers to the newlyweds!

Today, we celebrate!

Come on, come on. Let's go. I wanna see.

Who got married?

One of the Buend�as.

Looks like your Aureliano married his queen, didn't he?

Don't be so sure.

I blow that queen out of the water.

Aureliano! Aureliano! Aureliano! Aureliano! Aureliano!

Oh, they're here!

-Congratulations! -Long live the newlyweds!

Long live the newlyweds!

Welcome to the family, my dear. Welcome to your new home.

-You're glowing, son. Look at you. -It's all 'cause of my wife.

I thought they were lying when they said you got married.

Congratulations.

My brother, my wife.

Jos� Arcadio.

Fernanda.

Let's go. Why don't we have a drink?

Come on.

Hmm.

To the bride and to the groom.

�Salud!

To the future children they'll raise together.

Bravo!

Hey, don't be shy. Enjoy yourself.

Cheers to love!

They say it's bad luck not to toast to the newlyweds,

so let's get our drink on!

To love!

-To the bride and groom! -And for the beautiful bride!

Hey, hey!

And one for my friend!

Are you the queen of Madagascar?

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't realize there was someone in here.

-I should've knocked first. -Don't worry about it.

You're part of the family already.

Excuse me. I'll leave you alone.

You should consider locking the door. There are lots of people outside.

I tell my friends

Sing it, brother.

That my time has come

I'm going back to my little ranch

I'm not going to be sad

Because waiting for me there

Is my wife's love

The sun shines on us all

On everyone equally

On the man who does wrong

And on the one who does good things

Fernanda.

Fernanda.

Are you all right?

You must be so tired.

Why don't you go and get some sleep?

That would be disrespectful to our guests.

And I shouldn't leave my husband alone.

Does it seem to you like Aureliano is alone?

I feel really happy now

Wait.

Wait, wait.

What's the matter?

It's impossible.

What's impossible?

Consummating our marriage tonight.

We would be committing a mortal sin.

But how could it be a mortal sin

if we have your father and the priest's blessing?

You don't believe me?

This is the calendar Mother Superior gave me,

which lists all the dates for sexual abstinence.

With Holy Week, Sundays, holy days of obligation,

first Fridays, retreats, penances,

and her cyclical impediments set aside,

what remained on her calendar

were 42 days scattered among a tangled web of purple crosses.

What is this nonsense, Fernanda?

The first and most important duty of every Christian is to love the Lord.

We just have to wait for a date when nothing stands in the way.

Are you serious?

Well, good night.

Aureliano Segundo conceded,

convinced that time would break down that wired fence.

What's going on with you, son?

Hmm. He woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

He's never been an early riser.

-Good morning. -Good morning.

Good morning, honey.

Tell me what you see.

The real question is, what the hell are you seeing?

The blueprints for Macondo's first railroad.

-We'll finally have a train in this town. -Really?

What, sinking that raft of yours wasn't enough for you?

Everything's been perfectly thought out.

Time and the costs and materials, manual labor, all that.

It's unbelievable how time really does go around and around in circles

in this house.

The story repeats over and over.

Good morning.

You must be Aureliano's great-aunt.

I'm Fernanda.

Aureliano's told me so much about you,

and I have to say, you seem much nicer and younger than they made you sound.

Funny, I've heard so much about you as well.

The city girl that thinks she's a queen.

-My great-grandmother was queen. -Your lineage is irrelevant in this town.

I hate to break it to you, but in this family,

we're nothing but cattle rustlers and bastards.

Don't think that I've forgotten what you did.

I may not have any proof yet,

but I know that you had a hand in the attempt against my life.

I swear I did not.

You've obviously fooled my idiot nephew,

but not me.

I know exactly what you are.

-You're a spy for the Conservatives. -Fernanda.

Come here, child.

Stop right there.

Put that back.

Just know that I'll be watching you.

Don't pay him any attention.

He's just a grumpy old man, so�

I don't find him as harmless as you do.

He's so resentful.

He is.

You're not wrong.

But he does have his reasons.

He lost his wife at a young age.

Her name was Remedios.

That girl was an absolute angel.

She was poisoned to death by her own blood

with a pair of unborn twins stuck in her belly.

It was awful.

-That must've been very painful. -Mm.

-I'll keep him in my prayers. -Hmm.

Well, praying for him is a wonderful idea, as long as he never finds out.

Mangoes! Get your mangoes!

Sir, Macondo can have a train.

We could connect the railroad that goes to Fundaci�n

with a section that reaches our town.

Look. I found a route in my great-grandfather's maps.

This issue does not concern the mayor's office.

It's the department's governor

who's in charge of authorizing and also approving,

well, all the permits required to build new railways.

Hey, how ya doin'?

I'll go where I have to

and convince anyone I need to get that train to Macondo.

Now, are you with us?

It's your problem.

I doubt they'll help you get those permits and authorizations.

Hmm?

Things over there are not like they are here.

They won't applaud whatever idea you have because your last name is Buend�a.

Aureliano Triste, with the ash cross still on his forehead,

set up the ice factory that Jos� Arcadio Buend�a

had dreamed of in his inventive deliriums.

He had already begun to experiment

and produce ice made out of fruit juice instead of water.

ICE FACTORY

This is more refreshing than taking a dive in the river.

It's delicious.

It's good, isn't it?

But I want to diversify my business.

I'm not gonna spend my whole life making ice.

Speaking of that,

I'm working on something that's going to change Macondo forever.

Imagine you being able to sell your ice anywhere you like.

You know me, cousin. I'll find a way.

I just can't do this on my own.

You know we can't tonight. Stop insisting.

Listen, I spoke to Father Antonio Isabel,

and he said we can do it because you and I are husband and wife.

Mother Superior warned me you'd try to find a way

to work around every obstacle.

But I can promise you I will dutifully and rigorously follow

the calendar of sexual abstinence, whether you like it or not.

Where are you going?

Candy apples. Get it any way you want.

Cotton candy!

Cotton candy for sale!

Hey, sit down!

-Don't do it! -Hey!

-Don't do it! Don't do it! No! -No!

Hey! Hey! Get down!

Get out of the way! Get out of the way!

-Come on, move! -Get out of the way!

Do you have any respect?

What an idiot.

Don't do it. No.

I can't believe it.

No!

I can't meet anybody.

Turn around, turn around. Careful!

There, he's grabbing you! No! Do something!

-Hey! -He's hurting her!

No! Get away from her!

Jos� Arcadio Segundo crossed the mountain range,

determined to bring the railroad to Macondo.

And unlike his great-grandfather,

he never lost sleep or his appetite,

nor did he ever torment anyone with fits of bad temper.

Here is the list of procedures you'll need to follow

in order to obtain approval for the new railway line.

Once you have everything properly filled out,

you can come back.

Next in line.

In spite of the visible hostility of the family,

Fernanda did not give up her habits.

The grand dining table was adorned with fine linens,

candlesticks, and polished silver.

The doors of the house were closed during siesta,

under the pretext that the sun would overheat the bedrooms.

Hmm?

I can't believe they let you walk around naked like a wild animal.

When was the last time you confessed?

I don't remember.

Mama �rsula won't let me go outside.

-The last time we went to church I-- -Oh, dear God.

Nothing, absolutely nothing in the world should stand in the way of a Christian

and the holy sacrament of confession.

Mama �rsula doesn't like it when I leave the house.

She may have her reasons, but we are going to church.

Once you confess and are free of sin, you'll be able to take communion at Mass.

-Please! -Wait! Wait!

You're my queen!

Miss, please wait. Stop!

-I love you! -Don't go!

You're so beautiful!

What the hell are you doing with my niece?

Fernanda took me to confess, but we didn't make it.

Remedios has nothing to confess.

You are not to set foot near her.

She is the only person in this house with any sense,

and I refuse to let you fill her head with any of your superstitious

and Conservative ideas.

I just wanted to help her.

I found her wandering naked around the house

without the slightest bit of reserve.

And she'll keep doing it if she feels like it.

None of you seriously find it indecent that she's walking around flaunting her--

Her what?

Her parts.

She says you're one who can't tell their own ass from a mudhole.

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service to the Lord.

What are you whispering?

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service to the Lord.

He sees and knows everything we do.

There.

This might be the stupidest thing I've seen in my life.

I didn't realize I married an actual nun.

You're really gonna make me do it like that?

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service to the Lord.

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service to the Lord.

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service to the Lord.

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service to the Lord.

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service�

�to the Lord.

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service to the Lord.

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service to the Lord.

It's not for vice nor fornication�

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service�

All Aureliano Segundo found in Fernanda

was a deep feeling of desolation.

Sadly, she wasn't able to offer him the repose he had dreamed of

when he went after her to the city of 32 bell towers.

I have to go now.

They're waiting for me at home.

Don't you think you should maybe tell your wife?

Fernanda's from the city. She'll never understand.

What are you saying?

Aureliano.

I know about her, so she should know about me.

It's what's fair.

Don't make me do that, Petra.

You don't know her.

You can't even imagine.

Listen.

If you don't tell Her Royal Highness she's not the only one,

you're not welcome here.

And what would you do then?

All right, fine. I'll tell her.

Although no one in Macondo spoke any longer

of the carnival's tragic end,

Colonel Aureliano Buend�a was convinced that the Conservative government

was still looking for the right time and place to kill him.

They're saying that it was all planned by a group of fanatics

in the Liberal Party.

Hmm.

They're cowards.

They didn't have the guts to murder me themselves,

so now they gotta make up this bullshit.

And to make matters worse,

they've sent that woman to spy on me in my own home.

That girl doesn't know up from down.

If she is a government spy, I swear she doesn't know yet.

We should've never laid down our arms, Gerineldo.

I don't think the same way anymore.

The world is nothing more than complete chaos.

And yet you and I still lost out on so many things

because we were away at war.

So what is it that we lost out on, in your opinion?

Happiness, Aureliano.

And a family.

Growing old with someone we love.

I don't know what's worse, to be honest.

That girl from the capital playing stupid,

or you and all your sad old-man bullshit.

Careful.

That cart goes over here.

You've got it, sir.

Do you like your gift?

-I'll name him Jos� Arcadio. -Whatever you want.

I got what we needed, sir!

Whoa. Hey, boys. You gonna work for it?

Yeah, yeah.

Look at this mess.

It's a miracle.

Where are we going to store all this food?

Wherever, as long as it's visible.

Unbelievable.

Son, is all this for me?

So you can show off.

Thank you.

Thank you for the thread, Aureliano.

Next in line.

-Gerineldo. -Amaranta.

-How are you? -Fine.

APPROVED

It's not for vice nor fornication,

but to offer a child in service to the Lord.

Let's have another drink.

Right there.

Ah, got it. I see what you mean.

There.

Jos� Arcadio?

Approved.

You see? I knew we could do it. It's a miracle!

What are you doing up so late?

I was waiting for you.

We haven't had dinner together in a while.

Do you want me to warm it up?

No, this is fine.

I had a lot of work in the pens today.

And it took all night?

Do you really have to tend to them till midnight every day?

Look, Fernanda.

I have to be at the forefront of it all.

Getting the breeding back on track was tough.

You can't imagine what I had to do.

I can't tell you how happy it makes me that we're finally going to Mass together.

It's the sweetest thing you've ever done for me.

I'm going to ask Father Antonio Isabel about the catechetical schedule.

I wanna do it.

What's that look for?

No, I know what you're going to tell us.

Aureliano agreed to build a devotional room.

I'm going to have an altar for the Virgin and life-size saints.

It'll be like having our own private chapel.

I never thought I'd see the day

Aureliano Segundo would fund such devout projects.

I guess you never know.

The grace of God has finally come into this house.

And who the hell told you we were waiting for it?

Aureliano.

I understand that you haven't been happy since your wife's passing�

but that doesn't give you the right to torment the rest of us all the time.

You haven't even the slightest idea of what I've been through.

But let me tell you something.

I didn't bleed myself dry all those years fighting against the church

or holding off the Conservative regime

to die among a bunch of virgins and saints.

Aureliano, that's enough.

Enough of what?

You shouldn't test me, Fernanda.

You've been warned.

Just ignore him.

Fernanda, your father sent you something.

Dearest Fernanda.

I hope this letter finds you well.

Since your departure, I have been dedicating my time

to administering the family estate.

There is nothing new or worthy of reporting.

I ask that you keep me in your prayers.

Your father, Fernando del Carpio.

Dear Father. I'm glad to hear from you.

Thank you for the presents.

It's been quite difficult for me to adapt to the customs of this unique region

with its suffocatingly hot temperatures

or the disrespect and continuous discourteous conduct

that certain family members have shown, as they clearly have no fear of God.

-Thank you so much, ma'am. -My pleasure.

Mango, right here!

Hey, buddy. What you got today?

Help me out here.

These go over on that side. These are ripe, so let's put them here.

Where are you off to?

Around.

I swear I was gonna tell Fernanda, but you know how she is.

-Please. -Aureliano.

Really?

You know what you need to do if you wanna come back to my house.

I told you already.

Two for one! Two for one!

Come get your lemons. Lemons!

Come get 'em! Two for one!

So you found the turquoise?

You know the sewing basket better than I do.

What is it?

Are you all right?

I've been thinking a lot about the years I have left to live

and how I wanna live them.

And the truth is, Amaranta,

ever since I started visiting, I can't imagine being alone.

I never thought that, at this age, I could feel for someone

the way I feel for you.

That's why I wanted to come here and propose to you.

You don't have to answer right now.

Take as much time as you need to think it through.

I don't have to think it through.

You're so in love with the colonel

that you want to marry me because you can't marry him, right?

It's best if you leave and never come back.

We're far too old for this kind of nonsense.

There are men that suffer from a lack of love

and others from an excess of it.

You're fortunate though.

You're one of the latter.

I was until yesterday, Pilar.

You can't win a battle you don't fight, Aureliano.

That's also how battles are lost.

Only fools walk away

before they completely rid themselves of doubt.

I need you to listen to me.

But most importantly, just try to understand me.

Our life is beautiful.

I have so much love buried inside my chest,

while you have many forbidden dates.

I like to party and spend time with everyone I love.

And I have a business to run on top of that.

What are you trying to say?

I love you so much, Fernanda.

I swear I'm going to take care of you until the day you die,

just like I promised in our vows.

I need you to let me keep seeing another woman.

I had to do it so the animals would keep breeding.

It's Petra Cotes. She's the one that works miracles.

Miracles, Fernanda.

Her animals breed like there's no tomorrow.

And believe me, that benefits everyone here.

Fernanda�

Rot in hell, Aureliano.

This is the price I pay for marrying a vulgar,

godless, loose, and depraved man like you.

Please think it over.

-I just want us to be happy. -Listen to me carefully.

All right?

I will never� permit such a shameful act that is condemned in the eyes of God.

I would have rather stayed home, weaving funeral wreaths.

My love�

I imagine you already heard about the sinful offer

your great-grandson made me.

Thank you

for being the only person who showed me kindness in this house.

He'll never change, my dear.

He likes to party, that's true.

But he's a good man too.

Don't you think it would be best for the other woman

to fulfill his desires

so you can take care of what really matters in this life?

What could possibly matter more than upholding the values of a true Christian?

Giving a father and a real home

to the son you are expecting.

I'm never wrong, Fernanda.

You are pregnant, child.

And this baby is a boy

and the hope of this entire family.

Because you and I will raise him together to be the pope.

You are Aureliano Segundo's legitimate wife,

and you will give birth to the first Buend�a

free from the burden of sin.

And you will inherit this house which is full of old people now.

Fernanda, you will be the queen of this house.

And you will raise this child by your own rules and standards.

It's a little boy.

-My goodness, look at that. -Good for milking.

Great for pork rinds.

What happened to the horses?

They need a bath. Let's go, boys. It's getting late.

-Come on, boys. To the stable. -Yes, sir.

I accept your offer. All right?

Under certain conditions.

-Mm-hmm? -Right.

First of all, from now on,

I will be in charge of making all household decisions.

Mm-hmm.

I will no longer tolerate any more mockery or blasphemy from the Colonel or Amaranta.

You will have to be by my side, supporting me.

-I'm done with you playing dumb. -Whatever you say.

And secondly,

you are not to be surprised by death in the bed of your concubine.

You will die under our roof, with your family, as God intended.

I will die at your feet, my love.

There's one more thing.

From now on, we sleep in separate rooms.

I have to take care of myself because�

I'm pregnant.

You are?

You mean it?

Everyone!

I'm gonna be a father!

-Yeah! -That's great news, boss!

-Brother. -Yeah?

Slaughter a heifer.

Bring drinks and musicians because we're celebrating big tonight.

Right away.

Up the stairs, please.

Son, come quick!

Hurry up!

Hurry!

He's beautiful.

Look, son. It's a boy!

Go on. Go ahead.

Take him, son.

Hold him.

Don't be afraid.

He has your grandfather's eyes.

We will call him Jos� Arcadio.

Dear father.

Jos� Arcadio grows healthy under the care of grandmother �rsula,

in hopes that someday he'll become pope.

Who's the most handsome boy?

My second pregnancy progresses without issue.

Aureliano is always looking out for me, just like the rest of the family.

I am as happy today as the day I arrived,

and you are always in my prayers.

Fernanda del Carpio.

The circle of rigidity initiated by Fernanda

from the moment she arrived ended up closing completely.

She was the only one in the Buend�a household

who would determine the fate of the family.

Meanwhile, in Macondo,

railroad crews began laying ties and tracks,

but no one paid them any attention,

thinking it was just another trick of the gypsies,

who returned with stories of the genius inventions in Jerusalem.

Okay, let's go, boys!

Dig, boys, dig!

Faster, faster, faster, come on!

Pull the rope!

Don't stop for anything! Keep digging! Keep digging!

Don't stop!

Good, good, keep going.
