All language subtitles for merli S01E05

I told you I like Marc.

No time is more precious

than what I'll give you.

There's no service

except the dictation for your caprice.

You're a heavy burden in every sense

Are you calling me fat?

Yes, I am.

You're a fucking fatso who doesn't stop stuffing your face.
A fat pain in the neck.

Out there is the world of the living.

Don't forget that you're also a part of it.

Someday you'll have to come back.

I'll help you with Monica.

You have to memorize this.

Tell me, Gerard.

Is it worth saving?

If the end justifies the means,

What justifies the end?

It is the most intelligent reflection
that a student has ever made.

I'm attracted to you.

This has become surreal, Merlí.

Why don't you admit that you like me, too?

I... won't answer that question.
Please.

So neither of you entered the staffroom

to steal Eugeni's test.

You have any idea who it might be?

It has been dicided.

I can't keep working here.

The culprit has appeared.

I've talked to him.

You stole the language test.

Don't tell dad.

He'll know anyway.

I don't want to be a jerk with you.

But I will do anything to not let you go off the track.

In a few years, when you're a lawyer,
you'll thank me.

About what you've done,
forget about hanging out with friends.

Mireia, this week you do the photocopies.

Sorry.

It's ok.

I only say this so you can keep in mind.

Today, those expelled will come back.

They will soon have the philosophy test.

Good.

Today, your savior is back.

My savior?

What are you talking about?

You seem to not understand.

What's wrong?

You haven't taken your pill today?

You earn the kids' trust.
Then they stand up for you.

It's logical to remember that you are quite popular.

No, you're more well-known.

The students call you Hitler.

You have done a shitty test.
A disaster.

No, my students, you don't deserve the name "Peripatetics".

Berta, 1.

Tania, you have a 4.
Pity.

Marc, 5
Barely.

Come in.

- 5?
- Come in..

Man.

Three of you remember the test that you will take on Thursday.

Monica, 7.

Good.

Great.

Gerard, you deserve a 3 but I put down a 4

4?
It is impossible.

Sit down.

Don't ever write down that Aristotle is Plato's father again.

Man

You said so.

I said he was his disciple, not his father.

You didn't fail for that.

The concepts are not explained well.

Oh Lord!

The philosopher that I present to you now
is one of the greats.

Socrates.

With this, you'll have a hard on.

A couple of evenings. Bye.

- Good morning, Jaume.
- Hey, what's up?

- Sit down.
- Thank you.

You're welcome.

What's up?

How is Joan?

He's repent.

I still don't understand how he thought of stealing the test.

I wanted to talk to you and I want you to know that to me, Joan is till one of the best students we've had.

I don't get why he took one copy of the test.

Thank you.

I hope this would end up become an anecdote.

I appreciate that you only expelled him for 3 days.

We teachers considered his academic record

We decided the punishment for him and his friends.

Friends, friends...

His friends are bad influence.

I don't think the bad influence is them exactly.

It's not?

Then who?

I don't know.

At this age, they are rebelling.

They get used to changes faster.

What kind of change?

No, everything here is the same.

Just that there's new philosophy teacher.

Merlí.

Ah, Merlí.
Yes.

Joan talks a lot about him.

- He is Bruno's father, isn't he?
- Yes.

He teaches differently.

He makes friend with the students.

He's not limited to be just a teacher.

And he is able to guide them to following his thinking.

It's just an opinion.

I don't like it.

This means he puts ideas in their heads.

The kids love it.

It makes the class enjoyable.

He makes them think.

It's good, Jaume.

But I think the ethical issue needs discussion.

I hope he doesn't indoctrinate them.

Do you think that it's right for parents to make you think what's best for you?

Do not let anyone impose their way of thinking on you

you are old enough to think
for yourselves.

Bruno, this applies to you, too.

Merlí.

When you say don't let anyone impose your way of thinking on us,

- You impose your thinking on us.
- No, excuse me,

I'm asking you to think for yourselves.

What if I don't want to think?

Do I have to do that?

Then no.

No, it's ok.

You're not obliged to think if you don't want to.

It's ok.

Okay.

Very good.

Socrates was sentenced to death and was accused of corrupting the young ones and doubting Gods' existence.

When the only thing he did was questioning idea that they had filled his head with.

More than 2.000 years ago that "Power" tells us
what we must do and think

They want us submissive and silent.

They can go to hell.

Very good.

Right.

You did all of this?

Did yoiu learn how to cook?

My mother made them.

Today, I saw that you're very attentive and interested in Socrates lesson.

Do you know that he had a chance to take back his words to save himself from being sentenced to death?

He didn't do it.

He followed it till the end.

He drank a glass of poisoned hemlock.

That gesture
made him go down in history.

What if your gesture is useless?

Is your sacrifice for me worth it?

In the end, I didn't do it for you.

I did it for myself.

And when Marc saw that I got a 4.

He looked at me with a sad face.

I just want to eat him.

I was thinking:

"Come comforting me, boy."

" Come comforting me and we can freak out together."

Wow.
I didn't know you like Marc that much.

No, I don't like him.

Really?

It's ok if you don't want to talk about it.

- I like him a bit.
- A bit...?

Yes.

- But don't say anything.
- No, I won't.

- I like him since the beginning of course.
- Really?

On the first day, I thought:

" I would fuck him."

Girl.

If he likes you, then it would be easy.

- Because he comes on really strong.
- He is?

I know he does.

But I think he has a super profound background.

- I like that he does theater.
- Tania?

Tania, thank you for giving me the answer.

If I wasn't for you, I would have failed philosophy.

Whatever I can do for a friend.

But you got 4.

I don't care.

Lucky that she helped you.

Yes.

I owe you one, cutie.

Bye.

Bye.

What if he wants something?

I don't know.

- He hugged you.
- It's true.

Yes, but he hugged me to thank.

not because he wants something else, not with this hair.

Don't you like your hair?

I know how to do hair cut.
If you want.

You do?

yes, my aunt is a hairdresser.
She taught me.

Come on.
I've save a lot of money.

Approved.

- Ok, go. But don't you overdo it. I don't want to scare him.
- Ok. I will surprise him.

Ok.

He said he gave me 4 but I deserved 3.

As if he did you a favor.

He got nerve.

You helped me study.
What do I know?

I repeated the lesson a thousand times.

Eudaimonia.

"The myth of the cave", about men tied up in a cave.

Yes, you knew them so well.

You deserved at least 8.

He laughed at my test in front of everyone.

Just because I made a stupid mistake that I don't know that it was not right.

I can imagine what tone he used.
I don't know what you see in that teacher.

At first, he was so friendly with the students.
But when it's time to grade them, he forgets it.

This time, it happened.

If I could, I would tell you something.

Calm down.

- I won't talk to him
- I will talk to him.

Because if it was you,

what would you say to him?

Gerard told me you humiliated him in front of the whole class.

- Sorry. I have never humiliated any student.
- You laughed at his test.

I find it funny that he wrote down Aristotle and Plato are father and son.

Okay, I admit that it was funny.
I find it funny that he wrote down Aristotle and Plato are father and son.

Okay, I admit that it was funny.

But he doesn't deserve a 4.

He deserves 3 but I score him higher.

I asked him the questions the night before and he knew them all.

Plato, Aristotle, the cavern...

He didn't know how to express those on the test.
Plato, Aristotle, the cavern...

He didn't know how to express those on the test.

I have seen him study a lot in my life.

He aims for the best mark.

He was excited.

He at least deserves from 7 to 8.5.

Do you know what I think, Merlí?

That the grade has something to do with us.

Us?

Sorry but did I miss something?

You understand me.

Because Gina doesn't say what I want to hear,

I don't give good mark to her son.

Don't tell me that's not true.

Are you telling me that what grade I give Gerard depends on whether I can hook up with his mother?

Yes.

It seems so.

You can calm down.

Notable: grade between 7 and 8.5 on a scale from 1 to 10.
Gerard get a notable.

So fast?

No, no, no.

I want you to check the test again...

No.
I want you to check the test again...

No.

I will check.
I tell you in advance that I will put a 7.

And now you let me go to work.

Even though I don't accept your interference

you still turn me on.

Tania.

What do you want?

Hey, the other day, I was nervous.

So what?

- You said harsh things to me, too.
- Now you're the victim?

- No, I don't play the victim, Tania.
- No, no, bullshit.

Leave me alone.

Pol doesn't talk to me and neither do you.

Am I really an asshole?

Look, today the fatso has a nice day.

I prefer to be with people who respects me, Bruno.

Leave me alone.

The beer is coming.

Even though it was the last minute.

Come in.

Bye.

There's food in the fridge.
If anything happens, call me. I'll come running.

Don't spend your day on the internet.

How is your cold?

I'll turn up the heater.

What time do I give him the porridge?

What newspapers do you read on the internet?

Everything.

Sport, too?

I hate football.

I hate Barca.

They talk about it like it's important.

Do you know anything about politics?

I think they should go back to the guillotine.

I don't understand why kings exist.

If we can put them up, we can eliminate them, too.

I'm sick of politicians who earn 3 times more than my mom who works all day at the bar.

I'm sick of the fucking TV.
The more stupid you are, the more famous you get.

But if you have two jobs, you have to go outside.

I'm well informed.

I don't need to leave the house to know what's going on.

Great.

But it's necessary.
Let's go.

What?
No.

Everything is ok, Ivan.

but you're a coward and you have to go out on the street

and face reality.

You won't do anything to change the world form here.

I don't want to change it.

And I don't want to go out.

It will be just one minute.

You know Socrates spent the day going to Agora?

Do like him. Learn from him.

I don't want to go out.

Because I can't.
Damn it.

What do you want?

You want to grow old isolated from the society like Kaspar Hauser?

Or like the animals in cages.

I don't care what you say.
I don't leave here, dammit.

Then go to the psychologist.

Neither.

Your mother would prefer that you stay
in the enclosed cave,

Nothing happens to you.

Don't pity me.

Ivan,

The longer you wait to get out on the street
the more scared you get and it'll get bigger.

Don't tell me stories.
I don't want to know anything.
The longer you wait to get out on the street
the more scared you get and it'll get bigger.

Don't tell me stories.
I don't want to know anything.

Ivan, look at me.

Look at me.

Look at me, dammit.

I'll stick to you.
Nothing will happen.

No one will hurt you.

Just 10 steps.

We'll go home right away.

Just 10 steps.

Ten steps and that's it.

Do you trust me?

It is only fifteen steps to the tree.

You said ten.

Alright, 10.
Little by little.

Try to lift the head
and look forward.

Come on.
Head.

I'm feeling dizzy.

We're almost there.

Hey, Ivan, where are you going?

Calm down.

Calm down.
We're here.
We're here.

A little.
Come on, little by little.

There's a step.

Be careful.

What did you say?

Milk coffee?

Black coffee

And water.
Right?

Come on.

Excuse me.

Ivan.

You are better?

No.

What did you do?

Oh my, what a drag.

You took him out without my permission.

If I wait for your permission, your son will stay home for 30 years.

How are you?

How do you want him to be?

Intact?

Sit down.

Calm down.

Wait a moment.

Who do you think you are?

From what I see,

the only person who think Ivan can do it.

How dare you take him out of the house?

Miriam, you're overprotective.

- Can't you see?
- He's sick.

Was it not clear from the beginning?

- Is that how you help us, jerk?
- If you don't let me do this, I can't help him.

Never come back to my house.

We're going home.

Come on.

Slow.
Calm.

After what happened, we should be glad that you were expelled for only 3 days.

They understand that it was a one-time thing.

Joan made a mistake and he's disciplined.

Not everything.

You don't let me go out with friends.

With Pol and Bruno?

Those are your friends?

It's obvious that I can't let you hang out with that rabble.

Jaume.

Are you having a test soon?

Yes, philosophy.

Merlí let me do it
after tomorrow.

You want more coffee?

They speak very highly of Merlí.

They do?

He's the best teacher I have ever had.

Why is that?

Because...

Because he's funny.

He explains thing well

and makes me like the subject.

Everyone likes him.

It's great, isn't it, Aurelia?

Of course.

It's nice to have a teacher who makes friends with the students.

No, we're not friends.

He just teaches us.

There'll be a child who doesn't pay attention to the explanation.
But it's ok.

There are many.

Time is against you.

You read it and we'll talk later.

Come on.
Thank you.

What are you doing here?

Hello.
Shall we have dinner?

No, no, no and no.

I am working.

You suddenly came.

Ok. I'll do the same.
Is it about Gerard?

Great.

Are we having dinner or not?

No, no way.

You're going too far.

I already told you no the other day.

No, you didn't say no.

I asked you if you liked me.

And you didn't reply.

To me, it was a yes.

You got nerve.

I thought we could celebrate Gerard's grade.

You raised Gerard's grade so we can have dinner, right?

No, sorry, no.

I didn't do it for that.

Besides, Gerard will ask me to fail him again.

Impossible.
You already gave him a notable.

You'll see.
He'll ask me to give him back the 4.

Are you sure with what you are saying?

I don't know. I'm nervous.
What do you want to say?

Then, will we have dinner or not?

Not.

You want to stay with this?

Don't trust him.

To him, everything is relative.

He's worse than me.

- No, Merlí. I've ended a relationship.
- Right.

"And I'm not ready. I need more time for myself,

They hurt me,
I suffered a lot. "

Yes, it's true.

All right, we'll see.

What are you doing?

I'm going.

Yes, yes, go, yes.

Goodbye, Merlí.

"Socrates was Plato's teacher.

He opposed the popular ignorance
and those who were considered wise themselves.

In the contrary, Socrates was not considered a sage.

He was a man who doubted everything.

Who cares about what our parents put in our heads?

Do you agree with what you have received at home?

You are free to leave them behind."

Jaume.

Hey, have Toni come yet?

I don't know.
Is there any problem?

Yes, with Merlí.

I read some of my son's philosophy notes.

Merlí tells the students what they have to think.

- Jaume, I don't think so.
- I don't care.

I have to talk to Toni.

I think that you'd better speak directly with him.

He's over there.

It's him?

It's him.

Merlí.

You're Merlí, right?

Yes.

I'm Jaume.

Joan Capdevila's father.

- Great. I have a few visiting hours.
- Yes, I know.

But I want to talk with you now.

Great.

Joan has been weird lately.

Something happens.

The test thing.

His performance is getting worse.

But I've read his philosophy notes and I figure everything out.

You question the values learned at home.
And that's indoctrination.

- Explaining philosophy is indoctrinating?
- Yes, your way of explaining is.

You say what parents have taught them doesn't matter.

You gave him some idea to go against what we have planned for him.

Have you ever thought that it'll be better if Joan has his own plans?

He's too young to decide.
And you have nothing to do with it.

I just want the students to think freely.

And that freedom has led him to the staffroom to steal a test copy.

He was expelled for 3 days for that.

- Forget about it. Turn the page.
- I don't want to turn the page.

I have forbidden him to hang out with his friends.

- He has been punished here. Why do you have to punish him at home?
- Can't you see?

- Don't stop giving him lessons.
- There's no lesson.

- I just wonder why you have to crush your son?
- You don't crush him. Just brainwashing.

Understand?

You asked what happens with Joan lately.

I'll tell you what happens.

He's happy.

He is happy...

Yes, it looks great.

Yeah.

Wow, girl.

- You look fucking great.
- I do?

You like it?

I have to give her credit.

- She sure has one hell of a house.
- Come on.

Really?

What is that girl's name?

Monica.

Oh, right.

Monica.

Sometimes you can invite me and comb my hair.
Ok?

Anytime.

My mother is a hairdresser, but I trust you more.

Look who's coming.

- Damn. What did you do?
- Nothing.

- Wow, you're beautiful.
- Yes, she is.

- Of course.
- Not that much.

Monica helped her.

You can do a haircut and nailed it.

Sure.

Hey, handsome, we're going to have philosophy class.

Thank you.

You also are beautiful, Berta.

You too, Monica.

Three of you are natural beauties.

Man, I like how you recite Shakespeare.

-Thank you.

You do it really well.

Yeah, well...

I have memorized many monologues.

Sure. Recite me one someday. Ok?
I have memorized many monologues.

Sure. Recite me one someday. Ok?

Sure. I like having audiences.
Sure. Recite me one someday. Ok?

Sure. I like having audiences.

Everything. Comedy, tragedy.
Romeo, Juliet. Whatever.
Sure. I like having audiences.

Everything. Comedy, tragedy.
Romeo, Juliet. Whatever.

Julieta, Romeo. Eh?
Everything. Comedy, tragedy.
Romeo, Juliet. Whatever.

Julieta, Romeo. Eh?

- Sure.
- Sure.

He accused me of brainwashing his son.

Oh my.

I just encourage them to have questions

so they can think by themselves.

I accompany them, Toni.

Isn't it what we teachers should do?

What?

Nothing.
I used to be like you.

I was closer to the students.

I wanted to encourage them.
I don't know.

Eventually I lost energy.

And you've become a boring teacher.

- I didn't say so.
- But you think so, don't you?

Do you think you are boring?

In any case, I'm respected.

One thing.

Ivan's mother called me.

If the kid doesn't want to go out, you can't force him.

Okay, we won't go to the street.

- I'm going. I have class.
- Wait.

What's about Gerard's mother.
She came to visit you one day and the other?

Ah, a big question.

- She demanded that I gave her son a notable because He knew everything well at home.
- No way.

Yes. It's unbelievable, unbelievable.

What are we doing with the teaching, Toni?

Damn, I have been dedicated myself to this for years.

What the fuck is happening when now parents dare to tell a teacher what he should do or what grade he should give?

Someday,

this will not be for students but for parents.

It's for shit.

Gerard's mother demanded me a notable.

Ivan's mother is angry because I want to take her son out of the cavern.

Joan's father accuses me of corrupting his son.

Damn, Herod was wrong.
It's not the children that he had to kill. It's the parents.

Hi.

Hello, how are you?

Fine.

You want to meet tonight?

What?

I can't. I have thing to do.

Pity.

But hey, maybe you can call me.
And if I finish, we can meet.

Okay.

Really?

Okay.
Goodbye.

Hi.

You know that in the end, he gave me a 7 for the philosophy test?

He made a mistake?

Well, I told Merlí that I wanted more.

It's that I like philosophy and I asked for more.

He saw that I deserved a 7.

Then, congratulations.

Silence.

Sit down.

Okay, we'll talk about Socrates.

Remember he was the one who was accused of putting ideas into the young's heads

when the only thing he did was ask them to question.

I asked you the same thing.

Be distrustful.

What if we distrust you?

Great. Perfect. No problem.
Distrust me but I know it'll cost you.

All right.

When Socrates was told that he was the wisest among the Athenians,

he also doubted.

Then he asked other wise men what knowledge consisted of,

and he saw that they didn't have any idea.

And what did Socrates do?

Then he concluded that at least, he knew he didn't know anything.

"I know that I know nothing, but at least I know something."
Understand?

Athens killed Socrates because he was a pain in the ass who kept making irritating questions.

It's no surprise that Plato, one of his disciples, distrusted the democracy

which you know was invented by the Greeks.

That's the problem we have today.

I mean...

That democracy is not perfect.

I won't answer you.

Wow.

What's wrong?

I've already given you the grade you wanted, a notable.

But from now, to me, as if you're not in the class.

What system did Socrates use to make
people find out that they knew nothing?

Maieutics.

Maieutics

Gerard made a face.

Girl, I think he likes you.

He's talking with you all day.
He's looking for you.

I noticed it.
Just like you look for Marc, right?

In class, I didn't hear anything.

I only think of him.

Hey, where is Berta?

I don't know.

- What's with you and Bruno?
- He overdid it when he called me fat.

Yeah, guys are bastards.

Hey, someday, tell me your romantic stories.

Do you have a boyfriend?

Why don't we go inside?

Oh my.
Tania.

Tania.

Let me be.

Merlí, wait.

I want to talk to you.

Merlí.

I want you to fail me.

Give me a 4 again.
I won't ask for a notable.

In other words,
you plan to leave the state of "I want my mom to save me"?

Yes.

I didn't hear you.

- Merlí, man.
- No, don't call me "man".

Okay, I won't ask my mom to save me or demand another grade.

Okay, you got a 4.

- But you're back in class like the rest of your classmates.
- Okay.

I don't like that most of you failed.

That's why I make a work which serves as a test for those expelled.

But everyone will do it to raise their grades.

Fucking great.

Thank you.

My dad came to see you, didn't he?

Yes.

I guess he doesn't like your philosophy notes at all.

Yeah.

Joan, I'm glad that you like my lessons.

And what we discuss in the class makes you think about your life.

But the key is that you don't know very well about what you want your life to be

But at least you know what you don't want.

I'm also not old enough to decide anything.

They make you think that?

I don't know.

- My father thinks so.
- No, I care about what you think.

Yeah, but...

But what?

I'm not yet at the age to...

I don't know.

Come on.

Look.

What is this?

A bill.

How much is this?

50 euros.

How much is this now?

50 euros.

How about now?

The same, 50.

Then you're like this bill.

No matter how many times you're stepped on or crushed, you're worth the same.

And I think you're worth so much.

You're a Greek hero, Joan.

For you, I would sacrifice 10 bullocks

and organize the Olympic Games
throughout Polis.

All right.

Girl, I was told that you saw Marc and me.

We kissed very little.

I didn't want to.
I swear he approached me first.

Berta, you two were making out.

And you know that I like him.

It was just 2 - 3 kisses.
And I made it clear that I don't want anything to do with him.

He wants it but I refuse because I know you like him.

Berta, you're a bitch.
He wants it but I refuse because I know you like him.

Berta, you're a bitch.

Leave me alone.

- Tania, really...
- Berta, please, leave.

I told you Berta was unreliable.

But you didn't listen.

Why do you care about what happened to me?

To you, I'm just a fucking fatso just as you told me the other day.

Tania.

My mother says that to me, ok.

But you?
You're my best friend.

I swear...

What?

You're not fat.

Lie.

Lie.
Yes, I am.

Yes, I am fat.

I have flesh, I have fat.
I have more fat than you.

It's not ok to tell a person who has fat that she isn't fat.
Because I am.

- I'm fat and you compared me to that bitch Berta.
- Okay.

What do you want me to say?
Because I don't know what you want.

Okay, you're fat.
That's it.

Happy now?

Yes, I'm happier.

Do you know what you are, man?

A fucking fag.

A repressed fucking fag.

You won't ever do anything with a guy because you're a coward and a hypocrite.
Look at me. You're a hypocrite.

Fucking faggot, dammit.

Take it, what I owe you.

Ivan is in his room.

Say goodbye and go.

I won't say goodbye to him because I will keep coming.

You don't understand anything.

Go away.

You're Ivan's main problem.

You pity your son

and look at him like he's a weirdo.

Enough, get out of here.

I don't pity him.

I get him to move on a bit.

I make him laugh.

And I downplay the anxiety attack that he had on the street.

Is that a little to you?

He vomited. He couldn't breath.
And he can't leave the house.

Until when?

Tell me.
At what age would you let him leave the house?

Now is too early.

What about you, Miriam?
Did you see?

From home to bar, from bar to home.

Do you do anything else during the day?

Apart from lamenting and working?

You're a pitiful soul.

You and I are the only ones that Ivan has.

We're the positive two.

We have to trust in him or within a year, we will have the same conversation.

You are isolated, surrounded with your job.

But you're a beautiful woman and could take on the world.

Ivan has to see that you're dedicated to taking care of him.
Distract yourself a little.

You're choked up even here at home.

Free yourself from your child.

Ivan will feel stronger.

And I assure you that eventually, he will go to school by himself everyday.

Hi.
Hey, handsome.

Are you lost from your group?

Are you Gina?

Yes.

A gentlemen told me to give you this.

-Thank you.
- Good-bye.

I wait for you at the entrance of the flooded forest.

You are not okay.

Hello.

I just saw a fish that looks like your son.

Skinny, hectic with the "everything goes wrong with me" face.

You make a joke of him?

Like I said, he asked me to fail him.

But he can do work to raise his grade.

And that depends on us having dinner together.

For example.

Then fail him.

Forget about Gerard for a moment.

You and I are here.

You don't want dinner?
Ok.

I want to spend the afternoon with you.

Walking, trolling, going around then drinking something.

Then you go home.

You can't invite me to your house.
You don't live alone.

No, Bruno is doing after school activity until evening
and my mother goes home late.

I'm like a teenager who knows when the house is empty.

You always get away with it, don't you?

You send me a note through a child.

You definitely have something wrong with your head.

The one who have something wrong with his head is your ex.
He left you for another woman.

Hello.

What is it?

Open it.

100 pesetas (Spanish currency)

The first payment of my father.

He always kept it like a treasure.

And when I graduated law major, he gave it to me.

It was a symbolic prize for my effort.

I want you to keep it.

I know that you will try as hard as your grandfather and me.
And you'll have your own lawyer office.

But...

But what?

I don't want to.

What?

I mean...

I don't want to lose the bill.

I trust you.

Keep it well.

Will you do it?

- Enough. I have taken 2.
- So what?

I have to say this is not a real date.

No, of course not.
It's a fake.

Excuse me.

Your mother works?

- Great actresses never retire.
- Actress? Who?

The Calduch.

Carmina Calduch is your mother?

- I've seen her acting. She's great.
- She's the best.

You didn't tell me that.

I want you to appreciate me as myself not for my mother.

You're a little actor.

You send a note through a kid.

If Gerard was as skillful as you are, he would already have dated that girl.

- Monica?
- Yes. She's pretty.

I think she smells nice, too.

Smell?

- Yes, women have a scent.
- Men, too.

But men are like wolves.

All have the same smell.

No nuances.

You women give off a special kind of pheromone.

Come on.

What scent do we have?

Sometimes, it's hard to know a woman's scent.

The perfume spoils it.

Hot chocolate, for example.

I don't want to keep up this conversation.

Today I don't wear perfume.

Merlí will return.

But we won't go out any more.

- Ivan.
- Don't make me go out. I can't go out.

Until now,

we were alone in this.

Merlí is helping us.

You wanted him to be your teacher.

Inside the house, yes.
Not outside.

You saw how I was.

I couldn't breath.
- I know. I know.

But I want to ask you a question.

Are you better now than the day Merlí came?

I'm terrible, mom.

- You and everyone see that.
- You are not answering me.

Are you better?

I'm better here at home.
Calm, no attacks, no fucking panic

Please, Ivan. Only answer yes or no.
It's a very simple question.

Are you better now than when Merlí came?

Yes.

Don't move. Don't move.

Stop, stop, stop.

Macadamia nuts.

Macadamia nuts.

Come on, please.

You're Gerard's teacher and you're smelling me.
It's surreal.

It's not what teacher do with students' mothers.

I'm going.

What are we doing?

Live, baby, live.

We were friends, or so I thought.

I don't know.

She wants me to believe that he started it.

She likes flirting around.

Yes. When a guy approaches her, she snuggles up to him until she fucks him.

You've been with many guys, right?

Some.

But I only have one serious boyfriend.

That's enough for me.

What happened?

Nothing. I don't care, Tania.

But if you care about your friend, what you should do is to fix things with her.

Yeah, you're right.

I'll talk to my best girlfriend.

What a bitch!
I went out on the street and Eugeni caught me.

Monica, I wait for you in the canteen.

It's the other day, you did something with Marc.

Someone hurt you and you keep silent.

Who hurt you, Berta?

Merlí is the master.

No wonder he is dating the English teacher.

What?

Yes, with Laia.
Pol told me.

Yes, beautiful and super young.

She could be his daughter.

What about we do the philosophy work together?

Yes, I'd love to.

Then tomorrow afternoon, I'm free and no one is home.

Okay.

Today is my day.

Monica is waiting for me at home at 5.

Today you fuck her.

There's a new girl in class, right?

Yes, Monica.
If you see her, she's a bombshell.

You like her?

- What's wrong? Can't I like Monica?
- I thought you were a fag.

I'm shocked.

It's alright, Bruno.

The world is full of fags.

- Dad, you're crazy.
- You shouldn't give a shit about what people think of you.

Shut up, shut up!! No no!!!
