LUCKY STAR

You don't want any steaks?

Gallician beef.

Forget the Gallician beef.

It's the end of the month
and my customers feel it.

-I'll take some pork loin.
-All right.

See you later.

-Rafa!
-Yeah?

-We sharpened your knives.
-Thanks a lot.

-Here...
-No, no problem. Really.

-Thanks, kid.
-Bye.

THE ONE-EYED GIRL

-Come back!
-No!

Come back, you whore!

You'll do what I say.

-You'll do what I say...
-No, leave me alone, please.

You'll do what I say,
you fucking whore.

Fuck off!

You're fucking me over.

You're fucking me over.
Don't cry,

Goddamnit!

I told you I'll do

whatever I feel like!

That's enough, man.
Leave her alone!

I'll do what I want to you,

understand?
You whore!

I said leave her alone.

It's cool, man.

It's cool, no problem.

Come on, out of here.

Get out of here!

You fucker, I'll remember you!
I know where you live!

I can find you!

-How are you?
-Okay.

No, I'm not.

Come on, I'll take you home.

-Do you have someplace to go?
-No.

Leave me alone, please.
Leave me alone.

Get in, get in.

Here.

Give me that.

Careful. It's over there.

Come on.

Go on inside.

I'll heat up some milk
for you. Sit down.

It's all right. I'm okay.

Is this house yours?

Yes.

It's cool.

It belonged to my parents.

Where are your parents, sir?

Look...
Marina, right?

You're staying here a few days,
don't call me ''sir''.

Staying here?

Well, if you want to.

The hospital people said
you need to rest a bit.

Sit down.

You know you're expecting
a child, don't you?

Of course.

He wants me
to have an abortion,

but I want to keep it.

I never want to abandon it,

ever.

Yeah.

Want some chocolate milk?

Here you are.

Why are you so good to me?

I don't have any choice.
I couldn't just

leave you in the street.

Why not?

Anyone else would.

Drink that,
I'll go check the bath.

Why don't you sit down?
You're making me dizzy.

All right...

Want to do it?

Pardon?

Do you want to do it?

Do you want to fuck me?

-Don't worry, you don't have to pay.
-No, no.

Thank you, but no.

You don't like me?

No, of course I do,
you're very pretty.

Me eye grosses you out.

Some men like it.

Is it from birth?

No, it's not.

It happened
when I was a kid.

There was this girl named Raquel
in the orphange.

She threw a fork at me.

She was a nasty kid.

That was after my dad
brought me back there.

You haven't been
very lucky.

It wasn't that bad.

There were kids there
that never had visitors.

My father came
for me one summer.

We spent the whole
fucking day on the beach,

we ate in restaurants,

slept in hotels.

I don't know why he
took me back there.

Yeah.

Did you see him again?

My dad?

No, he disappeared.

Come on,

finish that
and get in the tub.

I have to open the store.

Rest up and call me
if you need anything.

Raquel.

Where could she be now?

Marina?

Are you okay?

Yes.

If you need anything,

I haven't left yet.

Two and two,

four...

And that's a thousand.

-Thanks very much.
-Goodbye.

Excuse me,

just a second.

One second.

Hi, Paco?

What are you doing?

Marina...

Marina!

-Hello.
-Hello.

I couldn't sleep,
so I went shopping.

There was nothing
to eat in the kitchen.

I cleaned up a bit,

and I left your wallet
in the drawer by the TV.

I took some money,

do you mind?

-Well, you shouldn't...
-Sorry, sorry.

I thought you'd like it.

I didn't buy myself anything.

Well, I did.

This.

It's all right.

You can do
what you want here.

Slow down,
slow down, wait...

That's it...

This only happened
with Daniel.

It never happens to me.

It's strange, you're
not at all like Daniel.

One day,

she asked me if I'd
ever felt abandoned,

and I said yes,

when my mother died.

She looked at me,

and she said I was wrong,

that I'd never felt abandoned.

We never talked about it again.

Of course,

how can you know what happens
in another's heart?

''Well, Paco,

thanks for taking care
of the store,

and forgetting
your parochial duties.''

-Sorry, it's just...
-Don't worry about it.

That face!

What about it?

It's the face
of a fresh sinner,

happy, satisfied,
and without a sign of guilt.

You're lovely.

Right there.

HIV antibodies

negative.

Great,

now you know
that your baby

will be all right.

What should we do?

Should we have dinner
to celebrate?

No.

Now that you know I'm okay,

let's go to your room,

take off our clothes,

and get into your bed.

And afterwards let me stay
there to sleep, okay?

Marina,

I told you before

that I can't.

Don't worry,
leave it to me.

You make me feel good,

I want you
to feel good, too.

But I can't do it.

Just let me try.

You like it, don't you?

You see?

Of course I like it.

Give me your hand.

See how excited
it makes me feel?

Did you come?

I don't know.

It doesn't matter.

You were right.
It felt very good.

She called me
''Sleeping Beauty'',

because I was so unaware.

She said I was dumber
than Sleeping Beauty.

They all laughed.

And I did, too.

Psychologists
are full of it.

So she did all
these tests with me.

She showed me these prints

and asked what I saw.

I looked at them and said

''lots of different
butterflies,

all of them black and ugly.''

When they talked, I listened
from behind the door.

I couldn't hear very well,

but I think they said I had
lots of emotional deficiency.

I remember that because
they kept repeating it.

I bet you don't know what

''emotional deficiency'' means.

It means no one loved me
when I was little.

That's why I'm going
to love my baby,

so it's smart
and has a good life,

and not be lost like me,

not knowing
why I do what I do.

Sometimes smart people

don't have such good lives.

That's true.

Because Daniel thinks he's smart,
and his life is awful.

I think it is.

Where did you meet him?

He's an orphan, too.

He never met either
of his parents.

He says they threw him
in a garbage can,

wrapped in a plastic bag.

But he lies a lot,

he's hopeless.

He's in the joint again,
without bail

because he skipped it
last time.

How do you know?

Someone told me.

A least

you're free of him.

He'll be back,

sooner or later, he will.

I don't know

what will happen to me.

And you...?

Me?

I wouldn't move from here.

If I had a house like this,

I'd have lots of kids
and be happy here.

I can't have kids.

I can't have this house.

That's nothing.

The worst is

to see everybody with their family,
their wife and kids,

when you can't have one.

You never get over that,

you just resign yourself.

Yes, but to go ahead
and adopt it?

I won't adopt it,

I'll recognize it.

As if it were yours?

Yes.

It's not yours?

No, how could it be?

Then whose is it?

She doesn't know.

She does.

He doesn't want it.

Not now,

but he might change
his mind tomorrow.

He's in jail.

In jail?

I know, I know.
Don't say anything.

I know it's crazy,

but I don't care.

I just want be with her.
You know why?

She makes me happy.

It's crazy.

Crazy?

If you knew
how much I think

of you alone in that

dark house,

growing old

alone...

Crazy?

It's a miracle.

Push...

Come on...

Come on... Come on...

-Push.
-Come on.

Push, push, push...

Push, push, push...

Look!

Take quick breaths!

''Star''.

Star Marina.

You mean Stella?

No.

No, first name Star,

middle name Marina.

Star.

That's a strange name
to give the poor little girl.

Miss, my mother's

name was Star.

PRETTY FACE

This way, please.

You're free.

See you later, kid.

See you later,

and fuck you
if I see you again.

Hi, Dani.

I knew you wouldn't
let me rot in there.

Get in.

You're luckier
than the devil.

Athletic,

Athletic Madrid Soccer Team!

What are you going
to do now?

What now?

I'll take advantage
of my lucky star,

go on a trip and disappear
from the country.

What do think about Brazil?

Look, Daniel,

you've worn out
your lucky star.

You'll get in trouble.

You're not happy
to see me, lawyer?

Your old friends won't
be happy to see you,

so listen to me

and be careful.

Where to?

To my neighborhood.

As you wish.

Look, lawyer,

I just turned thirty,

and I've spent my life
in those places.

Juvenile delinquent halls,
jails, prisons.

It's all the same.

And I'm still a virgin,

no one's buttfucked me.

I can take care of myself,

nobody fucks with me.

Nothing scares you.

Daniel Exposito's three ''Ns''.

Never, Nothing, Nobody.

Well...

Here we are.

You don't want
to go somewhere else?

No, you've done
enough for me.

You really want
to help me?

That's my job.

I'm broke, man.

It's like the joint.
Nothing's free.

Call me later on.

I'll call you.

Don't forget to see
your parole officer.

All lawyers
should be chicks.

Chicks!

Have you heard

anything about ''One-eye''?

You're an asshole,

man.

You have no heart.

Vaccination on her birthday.

That's why. She turns three,
she gets vaccinated.

-Well...
-Give daddy a kiss.

See you later.

Goodbye, Star.

Goodbye.

-Goodbye.
-Bye.

Bye.

Hey...

You know that chick?

Which one?

The one with the kid.

She looks familiar.

It's Rafa's wife.

Rafa the butcher.

Is the girl his?

That's right.

I made a mistake.

The butcher's daughter, huh?

'''Leave her alone, girls.'

said Peter Pan,

although she was having
as much fun as they.

'Who are they?'

Wendy was visibly angry.

'Listen,' said Peter Pan,

'Voices from the harbour.'

He flew up to a rock,

from where he was able
to see Captain Hook...''

That's enough,
it's bedtime.

No.

Just tonight,
it's her birthday.

Because of that.

She has to get used
to sleeping in her own bed.

Give me a kiss.

-What's wrong? You're nervous.
-Nothing's wrong.

I'm not nervous.

But her teacher said she's
too spoiled and that's not good.

Shit!

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I'm just a little tired.

Come here.

Come here.

Sorry if I'm
a little nervous.

It's probably my period
or a storm that's brewing.

It's a weird night.

Asshole!

You fucker!

Bastard!

-Get him!
-Let go of me!

Stop, stop...

Stop...

A car! Run!

Hey!

What's going on?

Faggots!

You need help?

I need a taxi.
What a fucking question!

Goddamn you,

you'll bleed
all over my car.

Don't worry,

I'll bleed a little,
but I won't fuck up your car.

Goddamn you.

Open up, goddamnit!

Open up!

Help!

Open up!

Police?

Hello.

There's someone at my door
who may need help...

Marina!

Marina, help me.

Fucking open up!

Don't do it.

He'll go away.

Fuck, open up!

Jesus, ''One-eye'',

you look great.

Like a queen.

My God, Dani,

what happened
to you?

Dani...

You live here?

Nice house. So this
is what you wanted.

Shut and let me
clean you up.

Take your pants off.

Who did this?

Five fucking black guys.

They crept up behind me
and tried to rob me.

But I got pissed off.

You should see them.
I think I broke someone's arm.

I need a couple of days
before I go.

I got some business
in Salamanca

but it'd better for me
not to be seen until then,

because these black guys
really hold a grudge.

Two or three days.

I'll ask Rafa
if you can stay.

I put the kid in our bed.

She's asleep.

Tell me if you need anything.

I don't need anything,
thanks. You can stay.

Hey...

I could use a little whisky.

The joint, man.

It's like the orphange,
but more comfortable.

There's no bullshit,

no priests or nuns that fuck
you over ''for your own good''.

So, he's a butcher.

How do you know that?

I know everything.

He's good.

He's very good to me,

and to my daughter.

Careful, the good ones
are the worst.

The girl that fucked your
eye up was your friend.

By the way,
your eye looks great.

Rafa gave me a contact lens.

He gave you it?

And what did you give him?

-So it's a girl?
-That's right.

-What's her name?
-Star.

Star, fuck,
that's really hippy.

That was Rafa's
mother's name.

Okay, go to bed.

Cut it out! Cut it out...

-You want it.
-That's over, all right? Over.

What's wrong?

Marina,

he can't stay here.

He's got to go.

He'll go, don't worry.

He never stays
anywhere long.

I'm the only one he has.

He makes it sound
like he's got a harem.

He thinks that,

but he's just a wretch.

I know him very well,

for a long time
he was my family.

Until I met you.

Rafa, Rafa,

it's very late
and besides, Star's here.

What's up?

You've got a fever.

-Let's go to the hospital.
-No, no.

No hospitals,
I don't want any problems.

You got an aspirin
for the pain?

I feel like shit.

Here.

What's that?

Effervescent aspirin,
to keep your fever down.

Wow, what a house.

You've got everything.
Effervescent aspirin,

stereo, video player...

Sit down.

Sit down,
I won't hurt you.

Hey...

What's the little girl like?

I don't know.

Normal.

Serious, but they
say she's bright.

Serious and bright.

Yeah, like ''One-eye''.

Yes, like Marina.

I have to go.

Hey, hey, hey...

Get this straight.

The kid is yours.

I told her I didn't want kids.
They tie you down.

I don't get tied down
by nothing or nobody and never.

Fine.

Rest, we'll talk tomorrow.

Finish up,
I'm taking you to school.

What? I always
take her to school.

No, he may need something
when he wakes up.

Don't be stubborn,

you can stay here today.

I'll get by alone.

-What about the deliveries?
-I'll take care of it.

I don't want him
here alone.

Give mommy a kiss, Star.

Let's go.

Wait for me!

-Where are you going?
-With you.

-Marina, I told you...
-I know.

I don't want to be
alone with him.

If you don't trust him,
he leaves.

I trust him.
It's me I don't trust.

See you.

Come on, hurry.

This is ready.

-Should I take it?
-No, I'll take it later.

Whatever.

Dominguez's butcher shop.

Hello.

There's coffee in
the cupboard by the fridge.

Hey, hey...

Where did you get
the number?

Yeah.

See you later.

He says from a card.

What card?

From the desk drawer.

The bank papers.

-Good morning.
-Good morning.

What will it be?

-Hello, Carmen.
-Hi, Rafa.

-Where's Star?
-Star?

Your wife's brother got her.

He's really a riot...

I don't want mussels.

Come on.

Where's the ball?

Where's the ball?

Very good,

one more time.

-Where's the ball? Are you smart?
-Here.

Where?

No.

Wrong again.

And that means...

you eat another mussel.

No?

What are you feeding her?

Canned mussels.

Turn down the TV,
Star's asleep.

I'm going
to hang up the wash.

Fuck...

She's got a hell
of a character.

Always bitching
about something.

-She has her bad days.
-Her bad days?

They're all bad
with me here.

Are you...

in love with her?

Me? With who?
With Marina?

You're nuts, man.

We're pals,
we understand each other.

Women are okay
for a short time.

Most of them are fucked up.

All of them.

Hell,

like everyone else.

Sure.

You must know
a lot of women.

Who, me?

I've lost count.
You know what?

All the women I've gone
to bed with were fucking beautiful.

Yeah.

But some I've gotten up with

were uglier than sin!

-Have you seen my knife?
-Which one?

Mine, the good one.

I'm sure I left it here.

Where is he?

He went out this morning.

He took 10,000 pesetas.

Who does he think he is?

My knife, my money.

Fucking hell!

Does he think it's all his?

You said he'd stay 3 days,

it's been two weeks.

I can't throw him out.

-Why not?
-It's what's always happened.

That's why he's like this.

I can't throw him out.

You do it, but I can't.

Let's go.

The traffic
will be awful later.

Rafa...

The first time we did it,
I was very young.

I was so excited
I said I loved him.

He said
''Don't say that, it's a lie.''

I never said it
to him again.

Do you love him?

What you don't say
isn't real.

Yeah.

Rafa.

Have you ever
felt abandoned?

Yes.

When my mother died.

Things can't
go on like this.

Like what?

Waiting for him
to be arrested

so that we can relax.

Why can't we now?
He's bound to leave soon.

I don't give a shit
if he leaves or not...

Shhh, please. You don't
have to shout, I can hear you.

What's the problem?

You can't be alone with him.

I don't have to be.

I have to know which
of us you love.

What? You want me to stay here
while you go to the country?

Yes.

Rafa...

You're an idiot.

See you tomorrow night.

Rafa! Rafa!

What bad luck!

I just missed him.

This is such a cool knife
I thought

he'd like this sheath
so he can

wear it on his belt.

Don't worry. He'll be back

tomorrow.

What are you doing here?

I don't feel well.

And I've got a lot to do.

Hey, ''One-eye''.

You know,

I don't even remember
the last time we did it.

So what?

You don't like me anymore?

Leave me alone, I'm ironing.

Since I got here,

I can only think about fucking you
the way you like it.

Why didn't you tell me?

You idiot!

It's not that big a deal.

Good God, the things you
come up with!

Get in your car and go back
to Madrid right now.

That's enough bullshit.

That's ridiculous.
How could I go back now?

Besides,

-what about Star?
-She'll stay here.

Of course.

Why are you so quiet?

I don't have anything
to say. To each his own.

Men! If you knew
how pathetic

your dramaticism is...

You don't know
if she loves you?

She tells you she does,
doesn't she? Cut the bullshit.

When did you get here?

A while ago.

Last night.

You...

You can't do that!

He was down there
all night.

Where's Star?

With Ana Mari and Ram�n.

Pack your bags, I don't want
either of you here tomorrow.

Take whatever

you want to.

You shouldn't have left.

Nor come back.

What can I do?

I don't know...

I'm very confused.

The best thing

would be for you to go.

No it wouldn't.

It wouldn't?

You've made up
your mind, so...

Rafa, I love you.

But you sleep with him.

Yes.

You know why?

Because I love him, too.

Marina, that's impossible.

What's impossible?

You can't love us both.

Why is it impossible?

It's happened to me.

Well...

I'm leaving.

Wait, I'll go with you.

You don't have to.

I'd rather go alone.

Rafa.

Star's my daughter, too.

That's okay.

It's too hot.

They just brought it.

-I'll go pay...
-I already did.

Daniel gave me the change
from that money.

He went to buy you
this sheath.

I won't thank the bastard.

You want us to leave
with him?

I want you to stay.

The idea of losing Star

tears me up.

But what can I do?

You two

are all I care about in
the world, but I'm confused.

I don't know what to do.

I'm a man.

A wounded man,

a mutilated man,

but a man.

When he was
five or six years old,

a couple adopted him and then
returned him to the orphanage.

That happened a lot,

but he never knew why.

Because when
he was with them,

every night at bedtime
they told him they loved him.

He knew why they threw him
out of the other houses.

He was a little monster.

He insulted everyone,

broke things,

and once he took a shit
in his adoptive parents' bed.

My years with you have
been the best of my life,

but when you want me to go,

I'll still think you're
the kindest man in the world.

Hi.

Hi.

I fixed the TV.

The picture was bad because

of an exposed wire.

Do you mind?

No, I don't mind.

And thanks for this.

You like it?

Yes.

But don't touch my stuff.

Turn down the TV.

Well...

What now?

Hey, don't...

Don't worry about me.

I've got some business
in Pontevedra.

But they have to call me.

It'll just be
two or three days,

then I'm out of here.

Two or three days?

Don't bullshit me.

Two or three days
more or less.

If Rafa doesn't mind,

come help me out.

You can't stay here
doing nothing.

I do what I can.

You hear me?

You just stand there?

What's up?

I'm going to fix up
the room in the basement.

Star should sleep alone.

Everyone will have
their own room.

Here.

There you go.

How much is it?

-How much, Rafa?
-1,025 pestetas.

A thousand, beautiful.

Goodbye.

Come in more often,

I miss you.

-All right, bye.
-See you.

Listen,

we don't talk to our customers
like that in this shop.

That's a mistake.

I know nothing about packages,
but about women....

That's my specialty.

And look...

Music, like
in a department store.

Hey, we've a got
a chess game

in progress.

And it's your move.

I'll call you.
I've been busy.

Well, well. I see
the disgusting capitalist

has finally decided
to create a job.

It's Daniel,
Marina's brother.

I didn't know she had one.

Lots of people
have brothers.

I heard even
Jesus had brothers,

and his mom was a virgin.
Isn't that strange?

Yeah...

Well, give me a call.

-I hope to see you around.
-Bye.

See you.

I hope I don't see him.

Crows make me sick.

You have no respect.

Respect? Look,

when I hear that,
I know I'll be fucked over.

I don't even respect

my own mother.

Well, I never even met
the poor woman.

How can you watch this?

Give daddy
a kiss, sweetheart.

One for Daniel,
and let's go.

You should have been
asleep an hour ago.

I don't want to.

You first, and then mommy.

Goodnight.

I'm going out.

Turn off the lights later.

Where are you going?

To have a drink.

And I need some fresh air.

Dress warmly, it's freezing.

Okay. Bye.

Rafa!

Rafa, wait for me.

What are you doing here?

I need fresh air, too.

Your house is great,
but it's softening my brain.

''Good night, dress warmly,
don't stay out late''.

Too much, man.

A best I take the kid
to see a Disney movie,

as if I cared...

Yeah. And what about Marina?

Didn't you hear?

She said

she was going to sleep.
That was it.

If my balls were cut off...
I'd rather just die.

I couldn't deal with it.

You got dough?

-Two more, man.
-Be quick, I'm about to close.

What about your dick?

-What?
-Your dick, too?

No, no.

Because I've heard
some things...

They can say whatever
they want, I don't care.

Does it work?

-What?
-Can you get it up?

Ask the people
who know so much.

Yeah.

The only one I could ask

would be Marina.

You know her.

I'd rather

ask her for money.

-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.

What do you do with
the salary I pay you?

I just paid for the fucking
swimming pool in my country house.

It's a lot for what you do.

A lot? Don't bullshit me.

I'm not spending my whole
life chatting with old women.

So what do you what to do?

-Me?
-Yes.

What do I want to do?

Five, four, even
two million pesetas, man.

Marina says that's
nothing for you.

If it works,
you'll never see me again.

If it doesn't?

Either way, I go.

Let me be honest
with you, man.

You want your
little wife and kid,

you know, that whole
happy family shit, right?

Well, you can have it.

It makes me want to puke.

-Everything does.
-No.

Give me a bag of dough
and my lucky star will shine.

What do you want
the money for?

Fuck, I don't know, man.

So I don't have to fuck
with jerks like you.

Hey, remember that this jerk

puts food on your table.

Food on my table...

So did the priests,
and the prisons.

Cut the bullshit, man.

You missed, man.

You missed, you really suck.

If you'd let me...
Let me try. Give it to me.

I wouldn't give

you more than a train ticket.

I wouldn't lend you my shotgun
even if I were drunk.

Why?

You afraid of me?

Yes.

More so if you were armed.

What are you doing?

Why are you staring at me?

I was thinking

how easy it'd be
to shoot you and bury you here.

Nobody'd find you,

because nobody

would miss you.

The cops!
The cops would miss me.

The cops...

Don't worry, I won't do it.

Not because
I don't want to,

but because
I can't lie like you.

I'd have to be careful
not to give myself away.

Understand?

Me? Sure.

Well, no.

Look, if what you want
is to get rid of me,

my friends called me
yesterday and I said yes.

But I'll need a little capital...

How much?

200,000 would be fine.

What about 100,000?

So would 100,000.

Fucking hell...

It's ready.

Careful,

and serve it now, you have
to eat it while it's hot.

I don't want any.

Serve Ana Mari first,
and then me.

Of course.

First Ana Mari,

then Marina...

And then the girls,

of course.

Ladies first, right?

I don't like rabbit.

Me neither.

It's good.

I'll miss the chow here

when I'm gone.

You're going?

Tomorrow.

It's small time,

but it's a start.

I have to be ready,

this is going
to be my year.

He's going
to the big time!

-This is how you like it?
-Yes... Yes...

Like this?

Gentler, my love.
Slow down, that hurts.

Since Daniel left,
it's like you want to do

what you think he did to me.

That's ridiculous.

You have no idea
what he did to me.

Mommy, I want to go
to the bathroom.

Rafa...

If something
happened to me,

you wouldn't abandon Star?

No.

Why would I?

She's my daughter.

Swear it.

I don't have to.

We're a family,
and we're here

to take care of one another
when we have to.

Rafa...

I'm leaving.

Sit down.

Dani needs me.

Star needs you, too.

And so do I.

You two have each other.

That's why she'll stay,

to look after you
till I come back.

And if you don't?

I'll come back.

I always will,
if you let me.

When are you going?

Stay here, all right?

Tell her whatever
occurs to you.

You're smart,

you'll think of something.

I hope you understand.

I'll be thinking of you both.

THE MILD ONE

The Spanish Finance Minister,

in Germany for
the Economic Summet,

stated that the peseta
would not be devalued

and that interest rates
will not be lowered.

These three men

were arrested after today's
bank robbery,

in Fuenlabrada,
in which

Rufino S�nchez Prados

was shot and killed.

What is it?

The suspects,
all with criminal records,

have been brought
before a judge.

A handgun and two sawed-off shotguns
were recovered

by police, as well
as the stolen money...

-Where are you going?
-To look for Marina.

Paco, do me a favor
and take care of Star

-until I get back.
-Where will you look?

Fuenlabrada, at first.

Then in hell if need be.

No, Rafa.

Stay here with your kid
and leave it to me.

I'll go to the parochial
office and put on

my habit.

People tell priests things

they don't tell reporters.

Be strong, brother,

and God bless you.

Don't worry,
she's not implicated.

-Where is she?
-At your house.

You don't look too good.

Well you're fatter.

A least you look it.

How are you?

Fine now.

But it's been terrible.

I'm pregnant again,

you know?

Rafa, I love you.
I love you.

I never want us
to be apart again.

They can't keep me
locked up here too long.

I know.

They're a lot of Basque
terrorists here, you know,

but they don't fuck with me.

How's Marina?

Fine. She's fine.

We have another daughter.

Another daughter?

Fuck,

that's cool.

Girls get in less trouble.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

Need anything?

Need...?

What do you think?

A fucking helicopter.

Don't worry about money.

-Marina will bring some next time.
-No, no.

No way.

I don't want her...

to see me like this.

Rafa...

You're the only decent
guy I've ever met.

If all the guys who act

so tough had half your balls,

things would be different.

But you're an original.

That's why I can tell you

that they've done it.

They finally beat me.

Don't say that.

Remember:

Who can defeat you?
Nothing, never, nobody.

Have you seen a doctor?

Fuck doctors.

They don't know shit.

Say goodbye, time's up.

Time's up.

No shit, time's up.

And not just time.

See you later, pal.

Take care of our women.

See you, Daniel.

Fuck...

This flu is killing me.

They've broken my ass,

I'm less man than you now.

-Hi.
-Hi.

-How is he?
-Fine.

Kisses for
all three of you.

No, he's not fine.

He's in a hell of a state,

I told him we'd send him
some money.

I can go next time.

If you want to,

but he doesn't
want you to see him.

Do you want me to go?

Marina,

you may not remember,
but once

I told you
I want what you want.

I love you,

whatever you do.

I know that now,

and that makes me happy.

Nothing else matters.

Come on.

Come on kids, let's have
some cake. Who wants to cut it?

-You want ice?
-No.

No ice.

Tell me
if you need anything.

What a beautiful sky!

What a beautiful window!

Dani...

My God, what's happened?

Marina, please.

Here I am, ''One-eye''.

It's good to have a family.

If it weren't for you,
they'd leave me to die in the joint

like a mangy dog.

Rafa...

Come closer.

Closer.

In the infirmary,

there was a guy

who told me about
some business in Cuenca,

but I need you
to lend me a hand.

Could you do it?

I could, but you couldn't.

The big time...

What?

Nothing.

We'll talk later,
she's coming.

You know how she is.
I'm counting on you.

As you like.

Rafa...

if that job

I told you about works out,

promise me

you'll do me a favor.

Whatever you want.

Come closer...

Don't ever ask me
to do that. I can't do that.

I'll take you
to your ''meeting'',

but then I'm bringing
you back here.

I want to die like a man,

not like a piece of shit.

You have no idea

what this is like.

Don't ever ask me
to do that again.

You don't want to eat?

At least have a drink.

Let's go.

Paco's come to see you.

Paco?

My friend the priest.

He wants to see you.

For Christ's sake, Rafa!

Talk to him,

then do what you want.

You owe me a favor.

Daniel Exp�sito

never

owes nobody nothing.

Go on,

have him come in.

Come in, Paco.

You two stay.

I don't want to be alone

with

one of those.

To receive the Last Rites,

you have to have
been baptised.

I suppose I was.

But I don't want
any priest shit.

I have enough

to worry about already.
Nothing personal.

Look,

priest,

if there is a God,

I don't think He and I
can be friends

at the last minute,
no matter how much magic powder

you sprinkle on me.

If He's as good as you say,

He's not going
to fuck me over

like everyone else has.

And if He doesn't exist,

Why are we going

to waste our time
with this bullshit?

Daniel,

let him do his job.

It's important for us.

Well, go ahead.

May the Lord bless this oil,

and the man
who is to be annointed.

By this Holy Unction
and His Mercy,

may God help you with
the grace of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

''One-eye''...

Yes?

I'm afraid.

I'm here with you.

Let me see you

one more time

like you used

to be.

Like this?

There has never

been another

as beautiful as you.

Help me...

Help me...

Help me!

Daniel used to say

that just as he had
been born in a trash can,

he would be buried in one.

He would say that,

though not even the most
desperate person knows

their destiny.

Marina never went to court,

she died soon after.

They said it was
an embolism.

It doesn't matter.

She died of sadness,

thinking of Daniel being alone,

wandering somewhere
by himself.

I'd die of sadness, too,

if I didn't have
to take care of our girls.

Because maybe that way

they can find the lucky star
their parents never had.
