Original subtitles

- I got lost. I'm sorry. - Hello. Come in.

The room upstairs is locked.

I'm leaving my stuff there.

It's your home now.

Thanks.

Lukas will give you my old keys.

- Lukas from the e-mails? - Yes, that Lukas.

I'm sending this gift to replace the one I left.

I wrote to him, but he never answered.

My other gift should be taken down.

- What's this gift? - A painting.

Make sure he throws out the other.

- Will I have to leave a gift? - Yes.

You have to leave something intimate about your time at the Institute.

- Intimate? - Yes, intimate.

What did you leave them?

I didn't have much time to think about it.

And now I don't like what I left. It's hanging there under my name.

-I wouldn't worry. - I'd rather they change it.

You'll be the improved version of me.

After me, I'm surprised they took you.

- It wasn't good? - Others seemed to like it.

I'm always suspicious of fellowships.

But I wanted to follow in your steps.

It didn't change me.

- And your project? - I'm almost done.

- You didn't finish? - No.

- Don't they say anything? - No.

When I'm finished, maybe I'll feel different.

- I hope to finish there. - Translations are easier.

As long as you don't get distracted.

I'll come back and start rehearsals.

Your project requires you to come back.

I could have stayed there writing indefinitely.

It's more than long enough for me.

A year wasn't enough to change me.

I'm still single, the same job, same friends, same problems.

But you've met people.

No one interesting.

You didn't have a good time?

I'm just telling you how it was for me.

I almost canceled.

- Why? - I'm happy here. So why should I change?

I could translate sitting right here.

So, why didn't you cancel?

I thought they would never accept me.

When they took me, I couldn't even think.

I had just started going out with Leo, so it didn't seem like a big problem.

But between the idea of departure and the actual departure,

things with Leo got serious.

And when I wanted to cancel, it was too late.

Anyway, I'm always up for contradiction.

Don't worry. Go and come back.

I did so, and everything is the same.

That's a relief.

Just be careful of Lukas.

Your contradictory nature might draw you to him.

I don't like Americans.

Well, me neither.

But you also don't like to travel and today you travel.

- Did you “contradict” yourself with him? - No, I'm more of a liar.

- Did you sleep with Lukas? - No.

You'll see he resembles the guys from here.

- Should I take a message to him? - Yes. “Throw away my old gift.”

- Look, a gift from Leo. - They have a hole.

I now feel this Lukas is one of the Institute's traditions

and that I won't be able to resist him.

- And he's very professional. - So am I.

I'll finish my project early and return in less than a year.

- Or contradict yourself again. - We'll see.

- Be sure to touch his hair. - He'll think of you.

And like it twice as much.

- Leo's at the door. - Let's go.

Let's begin. Camila, where to?

To Barbara's.

And after that?

To my mother's.

- Then we'll pick you up from Barbara's. - And then to Mariana's.

To pick up a mattress. Then we'll come back here.

And then, to the airport.

- Come for dinner after, Leo. - Okay.

You drive, Carmen.

- The keys? - In the truck.

Call us if you need anything.

Okay.

I'm going there a lot, to finish the translation.

Send me a photo of you not working.

Any photo?

Something not at home or at the Institute.

Why would you want that?

So you do something different.

Fine, I will.

What are you doing today?

I work, then meet with Sergio and your sister.

Are you seeing them a lot?

Yes, he called me yesterday.

Oh, it's late.

I have to go to work.

Fine.

You look very cute.

Thank you, babe.

Send you a big kiss.

- Bye. - I love you.

- Bye. - Bye.

Sorry, I'm late.

- When did you arrive? - A few hours ago.

You're okay?

- Your gloves. - What a shame.

- You're an awful girlfriend. - Was he upset?

He asked me to bring them to you.

- Coffee? - No, I have to go to the airport.

- Can you take a picture of me? - Sure.

Have you seen Carmen?

Yes, she moved your furniture.

She did?

Yes, it looks good.

I like that you're friends.

She thinks we should all live together.

I'd rather we rent a place by ourselves.

Carmen is boring.

I haven't saved much.

Don't worry. Concentrate on work.

We'll figure something out.

Look.

Another postcard for Carmen.

From her secret friend?

Yes, and it seems she's coming to visit.

The wildest hath not such a heart as you. Run when you will.

The story shall be changed: Apollo flies, and Daphne holds the chase.

The dove pursues the griffin. The mild hind makes speed to catch the tiger.

Bootless speed, when cowardice pursues and valor flies.

I'll run from thee and hide me in the brakes,

and leave thee to the mercy of wild beasts.

“Fieras”?

I don't know.

The wildest hath not such a heart as you...

As you.

Run when you will, the story shall be changed:

Apollo flies, and Daphne holds the chase.

“Caza”?

“Follow,” yes, very good.

The dove pursues the griffin.

The mild hind makes speed to catch the tiger.

Yes, a lot.

No, it's okay.

It's four classes, so that would be 400.

Don't worry. Pay the rest next class.

In Spanish?

Uh, finished with your translation?

No, not yet.

I know what to give the Institute.

Already thinking about that?

Yes. I want to get it out of the way.

And the translation?

It's there.

Have you finished it?

Almost.

I need a break from work.

I want to finish with this gift thing.

What is it?

I'm not exactly sure, but I think it'll be good.

Tell me.

I have to wait a few more days.

It'll be good.

Could you repeat the exact address?

Of Barbara's house.

4-5.

Okay.

Will you stay long?

I just need to pick up some things.

She invited me to tea with her wife to say good-bye.

I'll be fast.

I'll go with Leo to pick up some other stuff.

We'll call when we're near. How long will you be?

How long do you think you'll take?

Half an hour, 40 minutes.

Half an hour.

Worst case, you'll wait a bit.

Tell Leo to come up front.

He will.

- Camila? - Yes.

Are you happy you're going to be a mother?

Of course I'm happy.

Maybe you see the dark side.

But today, I'm happy.

What's the baby's name?

We don't know yet.

I don't want you to leave.

It will go fast. Some distance now will make us closer later.

- Will you bring that to Gregg? - I don't know.

- Have you spoken? - No.

- But he knows you're coming? - We haven't talked.

- Nothing? - Uh-huh.

I had no idea things ended so bad.

We didn't end it. Just froze things until we meet again.

- Nothing since he left? - Nothing.

How long were you together?

- Six months. - His entire exchange.

- And they lived together. - Three months.

No messages?

All writing and no touching is a bit of a farce.

- You've really thought this out. - Very much.

You've lived last year as if you'd never met.

So we pick up from where we left off.

- Back to his last day. - Something like that.

- He has no idea you are coming? - No idea.

And everything in between?

It all adds up.

- Haven't you wanted to see him? - That's why I'm flying tonight.

Have you told Leo?

If Leo knew about Gregg, we wouldn't have this box.

We're accomplices.

- It's not about you. - No, it's about Leo.

If someone was betrayed, it was Gregg not Leo.

That's debatable.

If I think of Leo, I won't leave, and I have to leave.

You're okay with that?

Gregg is there. It's harder to avoid him than to see him.

Do you regret leaving?

No.

You might.

You're leaving for this fellowship in order to see Gregg.

Who knows if you'll find him, or touch him, as you can touch Leo.

Don't fall into the trap of running away from the people you love.

Are you trying to tell me you'll miss me?

Maybe, but I'm happy you are going.

I see.

Take this gift to Gregg.

I just finished it.

Pass me the pen.

Gregg, If you are reading this, it's because we found you.

You know you have our best friend.

- How will you find him? - He left me his address.

- What if he moved? - He left me several.

Here's the list of his addresses.

- Did you do the same? - He has mine already.

- What's “secret”? - Maybe the girlfriend's place.

I'll leave him my address, in case he ever returns.

- Is that Leo? - Yes, at the door.

I got you a gift.

- What? - Something useful.

So much pressure!

- You like these for writing. - Thanks.

- You'll do fine. - Send us whatever you write.

On my return, you'll be Hermia, and you, Helena.

- We'll start working right away. - That's the plan.

I won't be pregnant anymore.

A shame. A pregnant Helena wouldn't be great.

- Maybe you'll come back pregnant. - From my American?

- Why not? -I am not acting.

Leo needs help. Can you come with us?

I can't, but maybe Lucrecia?

- Lucre, can you? - Sure.

Thank you.

I'll apply to your eyes, gentle, lover, remedy.

Is your sister still living in the same house?

Yes, she hasn't moved.

I took a couple of wrong turns, but I think I know where I am.

- Should I let her know? - Yes.

- Don't touch the floor. - Careful.

- Where's Carmen? - Hi.

One block away.

- Got the keys? - Yes.

- What are you doing? - Have they finished?

There's still the basket.

I didn't know you had this here.

Can I take?

Take whatever you want.

Take one of me.

I'll take this one.

I found a very funny letter that you wrote to Mom.

For friendship day.

“Truly, I'm not your friend.

I think I am much more than a friend.

Am I right or not?

- Bye, love.” - “Bye, love.”

How dreadful all those hearts.

Rather serious and violent.

Look. The cousins.

Cute.

- Did you call them? - No, I had no time.

- Call them. - Yes, I will.

I remember this summer.

- I wrote to Horacio. - What Horacio?

Horace.

- What did you write? - That I would be there for a few months.

Just that?

And that if he would like to see me, that we could meet.

- So? - He answered back.

Weird.

I wrote to him a few months ago, and he wrote back a few days ago.

He thought I was already there.

- Does he know about Mom? - Yes, I told him.

- You think it's wrong. -I guess not. Do as you like.

- I'm not so sure. - I don't know if it's necessary.

It seems so.

Imagine that you have your child without Sergio,

who doesn't want to be part of it and never will.

You dedicate your life to that child. You get married. You have other children.

And one day you die and that child is left alone.

- With his brothers and stepfather. - So, you would mind.

I'd be dead. I wouldn't care.

Do it and that's it.

I know he's only Mom's lover.

Do you really want to meet her lover from 30 years ago?

- From whom I took his name. - So, he gave you his name.

- How did you find him? - Google.

He's an accountant. He has an office.

- You saw a picture of him? - No, too many appeared.

I couldn't associate any face to him or me.

- And this? - Take him this one.

Nice.

- I have a gift for you. - What?

They won't have these flowers there.

- Plant it on my delivery day. - In this?

Take what your sister gives you.

I already closed my suitcase.

Open it. Don't be a pain.

I also brought you something. For the child.

- Open it the day she is born. - Good.

- Do you see him as a father? - A young one.

- I still don't, but I like him. - Here he comes.

- I have some money for you. - Thank you.

- What's up? - Nothing.

- Leo invited us to dinner. - Let's go.

- And you? - On the plane.

But come and help me with the last things.

Have you seen Leo?

Yes, I saw him just the other day.

How was he?

He seemed well. You aren't talking anymore?

- No, we're not. - Ah.

What was he doing?

He was visiting Mariana and was leaving to work.

It was very brief.

Uh-huh. Will you see Mariana again?

Yes, maybe next week.

Okay, tell her that I'll meet Horace tomorrow.

Tomorrow I'll call her and let her know.

Perfect. I haven't been able to get in touch with her.

She might be tired.

I imagine so.

And Lukas? How is he doing?

He's okay. He's there at the Institute.

Yes, I know, but... how's he doing?

I don't see him much.

Um, I saw him a lot during the first weeks.

Now I'm not going there much.

I am working at home more.

In fact, I'm doing pretty well, I think I'll come back soon.

- Really? That's great! - Yes.

Send him a kiss from me. Send him a kiss and tell him I hope he's well.

Yes, I think he's fine.

Hi, Mariana.

Carmen told me the baby was born.

Beautiful.

I tried to call but the phone was off.

It rang but you must be out of reach.

So, I am at Horace's.

Actually, in a room next to Horace's.

It was okay. I liked him.

Well, I'll call you back. Tomorrow morning.

Send me a photo of the baby.

And send Sergio a big hug.

You must be really happy.

I love you.

Bye.

Here we are.

- How did the truck behave? - Well.

Coming down?

- I'll plug it here. - Fine.

Did you cry?

- What did you do when you left? - I took a taxi. Alone.

Very professional.

Did you go to the door?

Yes, door, police, passport. Some people leave, others stay.

You'll have to go visit.

I don't know.

It'll be fine. You always knew she would leave.

- But she kept postponing it. - Maybe you liked that.

I think it was bad timing.

In what sense?

She should have left before or after.

Not just as our relationship was getting serious.

Earlier, we never would've met.

Later, would be the same.

Would you have preferred to break-up in the middle?

No.

But it's true. She didn't want to leave.

I also had that feeling.

On our way to the airport, she looked at me strangely.

Don't worry. Time flies.

She might even come back earlier.

I thought she would stay and have dinner with us.

Well, life is disappointing.

Indeed, it is. Why those gloves?

They were on the ground.

- Aren't they yours? - Yes.

Mail them to her.

She'll get others there.

Or next time you meet.

Next time I'll be more of an uncle than a boyfriend.

- But she'll be back. - And the same as today.

- You think so? - Yes, don't you?

No, I don't think so.

We'll see.
