-LETTY: Son! -Shh!

Yeah?

LETTY: Are you having breakfast here?

Hey! She seems sweet!

[QUIETLY] Shut up.

[IN NORMAL VOICE] No, Mom. Thanks.

Put your pants on quickly!

-Hurry! -Okay. Calm down.

What's going on?

Why are you so stressed?

What's the problem?

Doesn't she know that you're gay?

No, she does know.

My mom knows since...

-the day I was born. -So?

She gets intense.

She gets really intense.

She has a difficult temper,

she's a Scorpio.

You can meet her some other time.

Just get dressed quickly.

Please, put this on fast.

Oh!

Mom.

[SMILING, CHUCKLES AWKWARDLY]

Your sweater is inside out.

Breakfast is ready.

-DAVID: Okay. -I'll see you downstairs.

Mm! This smells delicious, Letty.

[MOUTHING WORDS]

LETTY: Come on, honey.

Don't look so upset.

We made fried eggs and salsa.

You can't skip breakfast.

I told him the same thing.

But apparently, Rodri doesn't eat a lot

in the morning.

LETTY: That's really unhealthy.

I told your boyfriend--[COMPLAINS] Ah!

What is it? Did you get scalded?

RODRIGO: Yes.

You got scalded?

LETTY: Anyway, I told Davidcito

that he could come over for lunch today.

He said he will, right? Heh, heh.

-Sure. -We're going to see

pictures of your childhood.

-All chubby! -Yes.

-Okay. -Always smiling.

[LAUGHS]

[LOCK CREAKING]

Ah! Hi, Cris.

Can you shower alone?

Or should I turn on the boiler?

-Just ask. -I'd prefer it

if you took faster showers.

I see.

Eh... Trust me, I'll try.

Do you need anything else?

No?

Ah! Okay. Sorry.

I'll go.

Eh... The water is really hot.

I don't think you'll have any problems.

Eh... All right, then. I'll go.

[♪]

Yes, sure.

Thank you.

See you later.

I got a job.

MARTA: No!

That's great, love!

-Really, Mom? -Yes!

Oh! As what?

As a free time manager?

Eh... Well, yes. Sort of.

That's exciting!

Yes!

Here, sit down. Sit down.

What is it? What does it involve?

Hold on, Mom.

What about us?

Uh... You're going to get a new car

and videogames much sooner.

CAMI: No, no, no, no.

If she gets a car, I get a motorbike.

It's only fair.

Camilo, don't be envious.

This is exciting!

My love!

Come, come, come.

Eh!

[LAUGHING]

You had to make coffee

with my coffee pot...

and leave some for me.

[♪]

[SIGHS]

Stop it, Rodo!

Seriously! I'm getting dizzy!

No, I'm the one who's dizzy. Ah!

I swear, I don't get it. Honestly.

Slow down, because this is...

First, you hoped for and desperately needed

a monogamous and exclusive relationship.

You got it,

he wants to meet your family,

and now: It's not cool anymore.

[GASPS] No!

Drunk Cristina isn't

this intense when texting.

Dude, it's too much. Honestly.

Text him back. Poor guy!

No, I'm not going to.

It irritates me, honestly.

Hey!

You used to be like David.

You used to!

Ah! But now it bothers you.

[CELL PHONE VIBRATES & CHIMES] See?

-Let's see. -Let's see.

What does he say?"Baby..."

-Jeez! -Um... "Baby."

[LAUGHING]

"Baby...

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel awkward."

See?

That's all?

Wait, he's typing.

That he can call your mom

and cancel today's lunch.

Son of a...!

Hey, dude! He's a good guy.

No, this guy's...

not right in the head, dude.

The one who's got issues is you, my love.

Yes, sir.

He's doing what you wanted.

Look, stop being dramatic.

All right, bye.

CRISTINA: Alejandro!

Cristina?

I sent you an e-mail.

An e-mail?

Cohabitation rules?

Yes. I expect a confirmation.

[SCOFFS]

"Kitchen use schedule."

"TV schedule."

"Do not walk around in a towel."

Really, Cristina?

There's also a bathroom schedule.

I see.

I guess the first two rules

prevent us crossing paths.

-But the last one? -Out of respect.

Seriously?

Am I laughing?

[CHUCKLES] No.

Well, you mention a dress code

to step outside the bathroom,

but...what?

Black tie and formalwear are fine?

Dress up as a mariachi.

As long as you do it in the bathroom.

Unfortunately,

if two human beings

are to share the same space,

there have to be certain rules.

Like no trespassing, no smoking...

No bugging, for example.

It's the only way this is going to work.

Ah! So it wasn't working before?

Well, it was working for you.

You got into a woman's house through lies.

It wasn't working for me, because I'm that woman.

Well, since we're doing this,

I'd like to propose

my new cohabitation rules.

Hm? Mm-hm.

What kind of rules?

You mean...

-one lie a week? -Hm...

Very funny.

I wasn't trying to be funny.

By your standards,

it's not enough.

Look, as long as you adhere

to those guidelines, everything's fine.

What did you want to set as a rule?

Um...

[♪]

No. Forget it.

This is fine.

-Ah! All right. -Yes.

Ah! I forgot one in the e-mail,

but you know it already:

Do not slam the door.

That's very important.

-Thanks, babe. -Yes.

CRISTINA: You're a sweetheart.

[DOOR SLAMS SHUT]

I'm ready

to devote body and soul

to this cause.

I know that after finding

harmony within my family,

I can help other couples

to...

To find their way, to...

To find the light within...

No, no, no, no, no.

Your mission doesn't involve adults.

No, no, no, no, no.

We want to use your potential

to help other souls.

[♪]

Ah!

Eh? Eh?

Them?

Okay.

Guys, this is...

This is Graciela.

Your new spiritual guide.

Let's thank the universe.

[GONG SOUNDING]

You shouldn't have come.

I could have gone to your office.

Besides, I love Guanajuato.

I met my ex there.

I love it, despite that.

And we love the first chapter

of your book.

That's why my boss sent me,

to take the next step.

Great!

We need you to sign this contact.

All right.

What? Do you need a pen?

Ah! Don't worry,

I'll ask the waiter.

Look, I'm Mr. Manuel's assistant.

Part of my job

is to make sure that writers

understand the contract.

Sure, sure. Yes, I can imagine.

What's the deal?

I don't... I don't... I don't get it.

Do you want anything else?

No, no. I'm fine, thanks.

Check, please.

I loved every line

of that first chapter,

that's why I went out of my way

to convince Mr. Manuel

of offering you this contract.

They want to give you a very hefty sum.

Yeah.

But just for the idea.

I see.

But my goal is to publish the book,

not to sell the idea.

Yes, the company is sold on the book,

but they don't want you to write it.

But why?

They read the first chapter

and they loved it, right?

What else do they need

to make sure that I can write it?

They would need to forget

that you wrote The Perfect Jerk.

I see.

I don't know. I could use a pseudonym

or something.

It's not about that.

Unfortunately, this is non-negotiable.

Think about it. It's a good offer.

Thanks.

The check.

Ah!

Dude, the druggie is here.

-Mr. Dougie? -The Colombian guy!

No, the druggie!

-Julio? -He's so hot!

The guy from the camp, dude.

-Shush! There he is. -Hold on.

There. Cute?

Let's go. Perfect.

Cool, cool, cool.

-Julio! What's up? -JULIO: Hey! That's me!

-You smell nice. -Sorry?

Nothing. What are you doing here?

I was in town, and I thought:

"I'll drop by to say hi."

Hey, are you busy?

Because they're...

There you go! Colombia!

Eh... Sorry. Have you had lunch?

No, that's why I came.

Let's eat and take a walk.

Look, I can eat,

but the truth is I've got

-a lot of work. -What? No!

Whatever, love.

No work. Not at all.

Hannah, two minutes ago

you said--Don't exaggerate!

Go get your handbag.

I'm watching you. Bye.

Change that face!

[♪]

Ready!

You have a lunch too, honey.

-A what? -A lunch date.

Crap! Yes!

Tina, wait![CHUCKLES]

GRACIELA: Why don't we start

with a relaxation exercise

to connect with the universe?

[GONG SOUNDING]

Ah!

TEEN: Do you have pot?

Eh?

To connect with the universe,

you need California sunshine, idiot.

All right, does anyone have California sunshine?

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Respect the instructor.

-Yes. -What?

California sunshine?

Why do you want that?

[ALL LAUGH]

Are you serious?

Look, we need California sunshine

to get high.

Not to sunbathe, lady.

Acid, yellow sunshine...

Pane... It's also called Zen.

-Dots! -Boomers.

-Loony toons. -Purple Heart.

TEEN: Heavenly blue.

Cid.

-Microdot. -Doses.

Trip.

-TEEN: Superman. -Tab.

Okay, okay.

The guru asked me to help you

connect with your inner self.

To become one with the universe.

Heh. Let's clear our heads, let's open our hearts

and consider that we've got two options:

You could hand over your stupid cellphones,

or I can ask the organizers

to perform a drug test

that includes all possible substances,

and give the results

to Mommy and Daddy.

[♪]

[LAUGHS]

[SIGHS] Thank you, universe.

Take us with you, Ale.

Yes, Ale.

Trust me, if I had another job,

I'd be happy to take you.

But my career as a writer

has come to an end. Yes.

-Ale, please. -Get us out of here.

-We're begging. -I can't.

But it's going to be fine.

Don't worry, you'll be fine.

Eh... Eh... It's lunchtime.

Eh... Let's go, girls.

It's like telepathy.

I mean, I think about you and you show up.

Oh! Well, stop doing that,

because I'm leaving.

Where? How?

I was just clearing my desk

for the next lucky person.

Now I'm going to drown my sorrows

and jump off a bridge.

As you can see, I've got

a pretty busy day.

Hm.

I know that face.

You got bad news.

That's all there is lately, yes.

Um...

We could blame Cristina,

-but it's not about her. -No.

No. I know you very well,

and this is not about love.

You know what you need?

A dose of brutal honesty.

And who better than me to give you that?

Come on, tell me what happened.

Well, Esther, I looked for publishers,

and I found one.

I wrote the first chapter

and took it all the way to Guanajuato.

It turns out, they liked it, they loved it,

and they want to pay me a bunch of money.

What's the problem?

Come on! There's no pleasing you!

Someone else would write it,

because they don't like the author

of The Perfect Jerk Manual.

Can you believe it?

Oh! Your past mistakes

keep coming back to haunt you.

Really, Esther? Thank you.

No. Hold on, Ale.

Ale, Ale, Ale, wait. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

You're right.

I mean, that book

may have been a mistake in your career,

but that doesn't mean

that you can't write.

You're very talented.

No one should come and tell you otherwise.

Don't be a fool.

Don't throw in the towel.

Being here is a big opportunity.

Are we ever going to go

to a restaurant with tablecloths

and all that?

You chose the restaurant!

It's just that this place

is very special to me.

I used to come here

with my buddies,

to get a drink, to eat and laugh.

-Delicious! -Did you study here?

-Yes, here, in Mexico. -Wow!

This place's ancestral.

Don't exaggerate. No.

-Thanks. -Thanks.

Wow! It looks really good!

-Right? -Yes.

On top of that, this place

reminds me of a special someone.

Really?

Did you bring your wife here?

Sorry, I forgot.

-No, no, no. -I'm sorry. Sorry.

Don't. Relax, relax.

Eh... And I didn't.

We never actually ate here.

We were supposed to, but...

she didn't make it.

No! Don't say that.

No! I'm sorry!

No. It's fine, it's fine.

I didn't know. I'm sorry.

This conversation is a bit much

for a first date.

Is this a first date?

Isn't it? I thought so.

Yes, it is.

In the short time we've known each other,

I've laughed more than ever in my entire life.

-Really? -I swear.

At least it's with me and not at me,

-like most people do. -Really?

Come here, tell me about you.

Where do you live?

Have you got a family? Kids? Pets?

A criminal record?

Tell me everything. Everything.

Ah...

I live not too far away from here,

I haven't got any pets, kids,

nor a criminal record.

I almost got married

at some point,

but obviously, that ship didn't sail.

What about your job?

Ah!

I started a company with my friend Hannah.

We do pretty well.

There are ups and downs,

but we do okay.

Okay.

Do you live alone or...?

Roomie.

Does she work with you at the agency or...?

It's... It's a he.

And...

He's gay.

His name is Alejandro.

Okay.

Do you want anything to drink?

-A beer, please. -And a napkin?

-Please! Yes! -I'll be right back.

Can I get a beer, please?

-They're so good! I swear! -Right?

Where are you spending Christmas, kid?

Mom!

No, it's fine. Don't worry.

I don't know, same as usual,

with family.

Ah! You're a good boy.

Do you want to have kids?

Hey.

Um...

To be honest, I hadn't thought about that.

Well, you have no idea what I got for dessert.

Let's see it.

-Right, son? -Mm-hm...

What?

What the hell is wrong with you?

I asked for one thing, and you didn't care.

Look, I couldn't be rude to Letty.

Leticia, okay? Not Letty.

All right, Leticia.

I asked if I should cancel,

and you said no.

Damn! I mean...

You weren't supposed to accept, okay?

I wasn't going to be rude to your mom.

Let's just end it. I don't want this.

Get out of my house.

[♪]

Okay.

You got it.

I thought

you and I could be great together.

RODRIGO: It was too much, Mom.

He was too intense, he was moving too fast.

And you didn't cooperate, you didn't help.

Look, honey.

You're always the one who gets ahead of himself,

the intense one.

What happened now?

He's a good boy.[ANNOYED] Ah!

You know? You know what, Mom?

I'm tired of people rubbing that in.

Enough.

I feel bad, let's not talk about it.

Are you afraid of getting your heart broken?

I need time to heal, please.

Be careful. You might regret it, sweetie.

[♪]

I don't know, man.

-Alvarito! Two beers. -Coming right up.

-How about here? -Yes.

Dude! I swear, Mike,

I don't believe a word from Esther.

-You know? -Oh!

Right when I'm leaving,

I'm a star, I'm wonderful,

I can write a best-seller.

Give me a break! Heh-heh-heh!

All women are crazy, bro.

-Not all of them. -No, please!

No way. No, no, no.

Ish! Uh!

Eh... Um... Who's that?

I have no idea.

He's not bad-looking.

He's stealing your girl, bro.

Thanks.

♪ Feels good, yeah... ♪

-Wait here. -Hey! What? Where are you going?

What are you going to do or say?

I don't get why she's with him.

I mean, it's fine, but...

I thought there was something

between us.

[LAUGHS]

-She stopped talking to you. -I'm giving her time.

More time to use the bathroom?

Mike, those rules are for everyday stuff.

It's what a mature couple would do

to live peacefully.

We're giving each other time.

Look, bro. Here's the thing.

She needs the money,

that's the only reason you're there.

That's why you're her roommate.

Or you'd be homeless.[CELL PHONE RINGING]

-Satan? -Yes.

Pick up, pick up.

-No! Why would I? -She's your boss.

What's the big deal? Do it.

Come on, idiot. Pick up!

It's cool.

Esther, hi. Hello.

ESTHER [ON PHONE]: Ale, it's...

I don't know, I'm still worried

about what we talked about.

I wanted to tell you that I called some friends

who own a publishing house and told them about you.

Ah! Esther, look, you really didn't have to.

In fact, to be honest, I'm not interested.

No, no. I'm not interested.

No, no, no. Hold on.

They're very interested in your book.

They want to meet you.

-What? -You heard me.

We've got a golden opportunity.

No one can tell you that someone else

is going to write your book, and if they do,

I'll be right by your side to tell them to go to hell.

Sounds perfect.

So where and when is the meeting?

I'll set it up for tomorrow, okay?

-I'll let you know. -Thanks.

Thank you very much, Esther. Bye.

[♪]

Bro, bro, bro, bro, bro! Hey, hey!

What happened? Thanking Satan?

Ha! That's not right.

What did she say?

No, it's like I said.

I don't get her.

She said that she's setting up a meeting

with someone who's interested

in me and the book.

-No. -Yes.

-No! Hell, yeah! -I swear!

We're going to be famous, bro!

Cheers!

Woo!

[MIGUEL LAUGHS]

And you dance?

Well, with the right partner, sure.

I'd dance any tune.

You know what I was thinking?

That the right partner is you.

Dancing partner?

Um... No.

Not just that.

Listen, I'll be honest.

I never imagined this.

I wasn't expecting something so...

Me neither.

I wasn't looking for a partner.

In fact, to be honest,

I thought I needed to be alone for a while.

Okay. Do you still... think that?

Because I enjoy spending time with you.

I have a lot of fun too.

Well, cheers.

Cheers.

I'm glad I can work anywhere,

because I'm considering staying here for a while,

in the city.

-Really? -Absolutely.

Absolutely.

Checking it until you hurt your eyes

won't make David text you.

-It's not that, dude. -Isn't it?

Rodrigo Alberto,

if anyone knows you, that's me.

Has Leticia told you that we both gave birth to you?

I don't know. Maybe this was for the best.

Hm. Why?

I'm terrified, Hannah.

I'm scared, okay?

I didn't want to rush in this time, I...

I'm tired of screwing things up.

Afraid of ruining things or of getting hurt?

Isn't it the same thing?

Seriously. Look what happened with Mauricio,

look what happened with Ale,

look what happened with all...

the men that have walked over me, dude.

And got under you.

Hannah![LAUGHING]

Come on! Don't be so sensitive.

Look, Alejandro is a liar,

Mauricio's an egomaniac, and you took a leap

without a safety net.

You didn't know they were bad people.

But this is a nice little man.

Oh! Don't get upset.

Come on, baby.

No.

Why don't you come over?

Bring a bottle of wine.

All right. I'll wait for you.

Kiss, kiss.

I'm done with the kitchen, if you want to use it.

Oh! Don't worry. I wasn't planning to.

Don't say I didn't let you.

Ah! No, I'm eating out.

I don't care if you use it.

-[SNORTS] Ha! Yes. -What does that mean?

Nothing, Cristina. Just that nothing's ever your fault.

Ah! Are you blaming me for--?

Yes! Yes, I'm blaming you!

First, you say I'm a stupid liar

who took advantage of you,

and now, I have to stay here

because of a contract? Seriously?

Come on, Cristina!

I remind you that you deceived me first.

First, you sleep with me,

and now you're cuddling with that guy.

-What are you talking about? -Ha!

Forget it, Cristina. You know what?

I don't care anymore.

You've made it very clear

that you just wanted to get even,

and now you have.

Congratulations. You've figured it out.

Look, you know what?

I want to establish a new rule, yes.

You can't set the rules.

Ah! But why not, Cristina?

I pay rent too. I've got rights, don't you think?

Listen carefully, I won't do it over an e-mail.

Okay?

As of now, we can't bring dates here!

[LAUGHING] Yes.

-You're crazy! -Oh! I'm crazy?

Looks who's talking, Mrs. Schedule

to use the bathroom, the TV, the kitchen.

What else, Cristina? What else?

Alejandro, it's simple: My house, my rules.

Okay, then. Enjoy the apartment

with Prince Charming.

You know what I'm going to do?

I'm going to send him the e-mail

and he won't be caught off-guard.

All these rules?

Since this is your apartment,

there's my room.

In case you want to use it.

For God's sake!

Good morning, guys.

It's nice to see you like this:

Talking, sharing, connecting.

I can even feel a different energy.

It's nice.

Well, I'm really sorry

to interrupt the conversation.

Let's... keep meditating.

Please, if you brought a cell phone,

-leave it in the...box. -Oh! Sure.

Hm?

Thank you.

[SIGHS]

Well, now that we've got rid

of everything that ties us to this cold and empty world...

...let's focus.

Just imagine that a purple light--

[ALARM BEEPING]

TEEN: Sorry.

It's just that I needed a reminder

to thank the universe.

Oh! You set up an alarm?

TEEN: Yes, of course.

Well, that's great.

It's... a good resource.

Don't worry, I'll... I'll turn it off.

There.

Great. Heh.

All right, then.

Let's remember to thank the univer--

[ALARM BEEPING]

That's mine, teacher.

-Yes. -Well, no problem.

Hey, watch your language!

That vocabulary isn't allowed in the temple.

Well...

As for you, guys.

This is disrespectful,

and I won't allow it.

Let's move on.

[GONG SOUNDING]

At the office?

-Hi. Yes, sure. Go. -Yes, yes.

[MUMBLING INDISTINCTLY]

[DOOR CREAKS]

Hi, handsome!

Good morning, Alejandro.

ESTHER: Hey.

Forgive him, it's just

that he hasn't had any coffee,

and geniuses are a bit slow in the morning, right?

Good morning, Dora.

Esther, I thought we had a meeting with--?

-It's almost time. -This is it. Sit down.

Ah! Thank you, I'm leaving.

Wasn't I clear?

No one else is writing my book.

-Thanks. -That's why I'm here.

I talked to Mr. Manuel.

It wasn't an easy sell, but I did it.

Here's the new contract.

If you're okay with it, you just have to sign it.

Look, Ale. Change that face. Sit down and listen.

She's saying

that you're going to write the book!

There's something that you need to explain,

because I don't get it.

You said

that it was a non-negotiable offer.

The key to any good business

is to say that it's non-negotiable.

Besides, it's not the same

to hear you say that you're a good writer

as to hear me say that you actually are.

Now give me a kiss!

-Esther, please. -Come on!

JULIO: Perfect, thanks.

Well, I asked them to send the papers I need,

so in a couple of days,

I'll be officially established in Mexico.

That's great! What about your family?

Your dog?

They can all live without me.

The good thing about my job is that...

I can be close

to what I really like.

The guru hates me too.

Look, let me explain.

Teenagers are like wild animals.

You can't go in and attack them,

because they'll fight back.

What you have to do is to become her friend,

act like an equal, and that's it.

Once you become friends, you can screw them.

Our kids are teenagers, Guillermo.

That's how I know.

What am I supposed to do?

Create a group chat?

Play videogames or what?

Well, if that wins them over, then yeah.

[SIGHS]

[♪]

Where are you going?

Ciela?

I know how to tame those beasts.

Cheers!

To the next best-seller!

To the manager I never thought I'd have.

-Cheers. -Me. Heh, heh.

One question, Esther.

Did you really tell them

that I'm a wonderful writer?

Are you serious?

Why would you doubt it?

I don't doubt it,

but I can't believe you'd think that about me.

Not so long ago, I was a mediocre writer

who could only review female products,

and now I'm Hemingway?

Look, it was vengeance.

It had nothing to do with your talent.

You mean that all this time,

you were just screwing with me?

[LAUGHS] It was calculated?

Come on! How can you be such a good writer

yet so stupid?

[LAUGHS] Well, thank you.

Look at that face.

I hadn't seen it in ages.

Which one? This stupid face?

No, the one with that beautiful smile.

Hm.

Perhaps I didn't have a reason

to smile.

That's all.

Ale, I need to apologize.

Yes, I need to apologize

for everything I did,

but try to understand, I needed to heal.

-Esther. -No! Really!

My heart needed to heal.

You really hurt me...

and my pride too.

Because you didn't leave me for another woman,

you left me because I wasn't enough,

and that's awful.

Look, Esther, you are enough.

So much so that

I had to run away.

That's why I fled.

Is that why you ran away from Cris?

No, no, no. Let's be clear,

I'm not running away from anybody, okay?

Okay, fine. Sorry. It's irrelevant.

Why did I bring that up?

-It's irrelevant. -I don't know.

Stupidity rubs off.

[BOTH LAUGH]

There.

Who's there? Cristina?

No.

The face I hadn't seen in ages...

with that cute smile.

Just because you don't want to.

If you wanted to, you'd see it more often.

Really?

Every morning, every night...

-All the time? -All the time.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

Hi.

Eh... Come in.

Thank you for coming.

Excuse me.

Eh... Would you like a drink?

There's beer, wine, milk...

No, no. Thank you.

I'd rather talk.

I came here because I need some clarity.

You push me away, you call me.

I don't understand what's going on.

I'm not sure I want a relationship

with someone who comes and goes.

-No. It's not cool. -Okay.

No, I understand.

I screwed up, okay?

I was rude to you.

I wanted to offer you an apology.

And I take it.

I'm not like the others.

I'm not going to hurt you, okay?

I know.

If you want to take things slow,

I've got no problem with that.

Actually, I'd like...

to match your pace,

if that's all right.

Sure.

But I move fast.

I can run.

[BOTH GIGGLE]

I'm invisible.

[COUGHS]

Mom!

Your timing is perfect.

LETTY: I'll make a few quesadillas.

-Are you hungry? -Okay.

Sure.

I'll help her, if you don't mind.

Go, handsome.

Letty, how may I help?

Eh... Let's make quesadillas.

Let's cook, let's cook.

One little kiss.

-All right. -LETTY: Let's cook, then.

I love you, guys.

DAVID: Okay.

Robert?

Valeria?

[TECHNO MUSIC PLAYING]

[MAN SINGING INDISTINCTLY]

Can I have one?

[BOTH LAUGH]

Don't tell me.

California sunshine?

Or what was it?

Yellow sunshine? Tab? Micro...something?

-It's the same thing. -GRACIELA: Ah!

Like that thing the hippies used in the 70s?

TEEN: What are hippies?

Look, they're like...

Like hipsters, right? But old and boring.

Heh.

No...

If you have to tell on us--

Now what?

Do you inhale it? Eat it? Smoke it?

What? Inject it?

-Like this? -ROBERT: Yes.

That's all?

What? Just one?

Well, I don't feel a thing.

You don't?

No, I don't feel a thing.

Should I feel anything by now?

I don't feel a thing. Not a thing.

[♪]

[LAUGHS]

ESTHER: I'll go get some water, okay?

ALEJANDRO: Eh... Sure.

Oh! Jeez, Cris!

You scared me!

-Esther! -What are you doing there?

Look, I grabbed your gown.

I hope you don't mind.

It's lovely, where did you get it?

You don't mind, right?

I saw it in Ale's closet.

What are you doing here?

Eh... In the kitchen?

I came to get a glass of water.

Eh...

Oh! Hi, Cris.

ESTHER: Hi.

Ale, look at Cris. She's so nice

that she had a glass for me.

We're so in sync.

Everything all right, love?

-Good evening! -ALEJANDRO: Good evening.

I didn't know you were all awake.

ESTHER: Hello!

Wow! It's a double date!

Unbelievable!

Well, enjoy your evening.

Bye. Don't make too much noise.

-Likewise! -Good night.

Thanks, love.

See you there, okay?
