What happened Cookie?

You hurt your poor little wing.

Now you can't even fly.

See? That's what happens when you play too rough.

What happened with your dad?

Did he leave you?

Caro.

Did he leave you in the park?

What happened Cookie?

Did you play badly? Did someone hurt you?

Watch out for the girl!

Caro, go play outside so the men can work.

That one in the passage, please.

Caro!

Do you like your furniture?

Mom and I chose them.

They smell like paint.

Don't go to the front of the house. You stay back here.

- Yes

Eat up, Caro.

- Thanks -You're welcome.

Do you like the house Carolina?

I used to live here when I was your age.

- Finished Mom! -Coming!

The prince took her hand and they danced all night.

When someone else asked her to dance, he said, she's my partner.

At dawn she left but the prince followed her to see where she went.

But suddenly she went into the garden behind the house.

There was a huge tree there, hung with lovely pears.

Cinderella climbed its branches and the prince couldn't see where she had gone.

- Mom! -What is it, Love?

It's gone in.

Yuck, Caro.

Leave that in the garden. I can't stand you picking up bugs.

- But this one doesn't bite. -You don't know which ones bite. Give it to me.

Bloody genes.

It's bad enough that there's stuff everywhere. Come here, I'm going to wash your hands.

Look, I don't care if you play in the garden and get dirty.

But I don't like you picking up bugs. There are very poisonous animals.

You only have to be careful with spiders and Jerusalem crickets and centipedes

You don't know! Some insects are very dangerous, and you don't know which ones are which.

Don't pick up animals in the garden any more, OK?

What time is the carpet coming tomorrow?

At three.

Carolina! Come down from there!

This is very dangerous!

At the bottom there's a hairy monster, he'll put you in a cage and you'll never come back.

- Understand? -Yes.

- Promise me you'll never go in.

- I promise.

- You can go no further than this tree. Got it?

- Yes

Go into the house

Good night, love.

Mom.

- Could you read me another story? - I already read you one, Caro.

- Mom. -Yes?

Do monsters exist?

- No, of course not. -And hairy monsters?

No, my love. Do you want me to open the closet?

- Mom -What is it?

Where's Mexico City?

It is...

In the North.

- We are living in the South. - And where's the North?

- That way. -Out the window?

Are you OK?

- Sure? -Yes.

Sleep well.

Caro!

Caro!

Did you wet the bed, Honey?

You haven't done that for a long time.

What's wrong?

Do you feel bad?

Don't you like your new house?

Do you dislike Felipe?

My love. Don't you like him?

You know it's very important to talk to me about your feelings, don't you?

Yes.

Alright, if you feel bad you'll tell me.

I will always help you feel better.

Come here.

What color are you going to paint the bird?

Carito?

What time will Mom get back?

She won't be long, she went to the supermarket.

Can I help you?

Thanks.

Don't you have another one?

Me first then you. Alright?

I'm going to put my pyjamas on.

How I wish I had a daughter whose skin was as white as snow...

whose lips were as red as blood, and whose hair was as black as ebony.

- Mom -What is it?

Don't I go to school anymore?

Of course you do love, but right now you're on vacation.

You'll go back to school in a month.

Although it won't be the same school.

Will it be a new school?

Yes, and you'll have lots of friends, lots more than in the other school.

Alexandra and the porcupine?

You'll have new friends my love.

Alexandra and her brother are at the school in Mexico City

I want to go to the same school as them.

You'll like this one a lot more.

You'll see.

Shall we go on?

Yes.

A short while later her wish was granted...

...when she had a beautiful daughter with white skin...

...red lips and black hair...

...and she called her Snow White.

Mom.

Could you get me a glass of water please?

What are glasses made of? Water?

Plastic?

Of plastic. You say, �A glass with water.�

- Thank you. -You're welcome.

Mom.

Could you paint with me a while please?

- Which color do you want? - Purple.

A purple lion?

What color are lions?

This one is purple.

OK, you paint the lion and I'll paint the grass. Alright?

You went out of the lines. Here.

Mom. Where's Dad?

He's in his house, love.

And when is he coming?

He isn't coming.

Why not?

Because he and I aren't together anymore.

Why?

Because he doesn't want to be with us anymore.

Doesn't he want to be my dad anymore?

Felipe is your dad now.

Hang on.

Hello love!

Good, and you?

That's good.

Here, painting with Caro.

Good. We were just talking about you.

Did you sleep well love?

.Caro? - Yes.

That's good.

Come on Love, bring your suitcase, we' re getting on the plane.

Yippee! Where are we going Mom? Where would you like to go?

Caro, come here.

Look what Felipe bought you.

So you can play dolls.

- What do you say? -Thank you.

You're welcome.

She loved it Honey! Thank you.

Would you like some cookies Caro?

No thank you.

- They're fantastic. - Aren't they the best?

And how's your mom in the new apartment?

Full of aches and pains. The same as she was here.

Did you say hi to her for me?

She'll end up loving you, you'll see.

And the girl? She hasn't come back.

Look.

- Who took it? -Caro.

What a great angle!

Let's take a photo! Come on, move over.

Caro, come here.

Come here, Love. We're going to take a photo. That's it.

Ready. Cheese.

Let's see.

No. Hang on, one more.

One, two, three.

Look.

It's nice.

Caro?

- What are you doing up? - I'm thirsty.

Go to your room. I'll bring you the water.

Hello my love, you're so impatient. I was just answering you.

It's your fault. You leave me here instead of putting me to good use!

I'm going to hold you to that, eh!

OK, OK. A couple just rang me who are interested in Tacambaro.

Tomorrow I have two for Las �nimas.

...to where her real family was waiting.

- And they all lived... - Happily ever after.

Honey, I've left you a glass with water in case you get thirsty, OK?

- Good night. -Good night.

- Mom -What is it love?

I don't want to watch the movie anymore.

But these programs are good, you team things.

I want to play outside.

When this episode finishes, OK?

Hi Mom Good. And you?

That's good... And Dad? That's good.

Well, very we�, thanks.

Great. We've got a really big garden and she loves it.

Good. No, not at all.

If you want, but Felipe would come too.

Then the answer is no... Because I said so, Mom.

I don't care! I can't believe you're supporting him!

Nothing's going to happen to him. And it pisses me off that he's manipulating you!

Don't even think about it! Hang on.

Caro, go out into the garden please.

Put them on outside.

You stay back here OK?

Please Mom, half the kids in the world don't live with their fathers, and they're fine!

Please Mom, half the kids in the world don't live with their fathers, and they're fine!

The females lay eggs, and the majority of the parents take care of their young as they grow.

If you had the chance to see inside an egg and observe the development of the little chicken...

you would witness one of the greatest marvels of nature.

Apart from that, there are three professors who've been here for 20 years.

And they're angry because they brought me in instead of promoting them.

Oh well, what can you do, my love, if it's for a job...

I guess.

Even one of them is not an economist, imagine that, he is a sociologist.

How much do you owe on the card?

50.

Give me your statement, I'll pay it.

No, I'll pay it as soon as the first house is sold.

No, there's a lot of interest.

Or what? Don't you want me to see your statement?

Of course not, it's not that.

It's because I feel embarrassed with you.

Give it to me, I'll pay it and later you pay me back.

Finished Mom!

Coming!

Today I'm going to read to you.

- Is this the book your mom reads you? -Yes.

- Which one do you want? - Whichever.

This one?

Do you like to be called Carito?

Or do you have another nickname?

My dad calls me Bug, because he's an entomologist.

You are missing him or what?

Do you miss him?

No...

What do you mean no? Then why do you cry when you see him?...

- ...when you see his photos. - No, no, no...

And why are these photos in the house'?

- He's her father. What do you want me to do? - What do I care, he's her father?

Aren't we trying to make a new life?

I know, but she can't forget him just like that.

That's not my problem. And if you're missing him too, you can both get out of my house!

- I don't miss him. Don't miss him.

- Fine... Are you with me or not?

- Of course I'm with you but try to understand my process.

- What do you mean 'process'? How long ago did you leave that idiot?

- What are you talking about? - It was a yellow Volkswagen.

- Did you see the plates? - No.

- I thought he was here inside, so I came in to check. -And?

I checked the house and garden. When I went outside the car was gone.

In any case he's not dumb enough to park outside.

He didn't call you?

Yeah, right. Do you think he'd be calling me?

After the fright the lawyers gave him he won't be coming near us. Believe me.

- He better not. -Love, it wasn't him.

This is our house. I don't want that idiot bothering us.

He had his chance with you and blew it.

If I catch him here I'll kill him.

Relax honey. I love you. Only you.

We'll be together for the rest of our lives.

- Goodnight. -Goodnight.

Mom.

Is my dad in Mexico City?

Yes, Love. I'd told you, remember?

But now you have a new dad.

- Goodnight. -Goodnight.

Mommy? Will all the kids wear uniforms to school?

Of course. Did you think you'd be the only one?

Turn around, let's see.

- Shit, and how much did they ask for ransom? -One million.

- Really? And they managed it? - Yes, but they sold their house for a song.

I don't understand why they didn't talk to the Federal Agency.

They have negotiators for this and they're very good.

They train them in Israel.

Yes, but they say that if you call the police, they'll kill your kid.

Shit.

That's why I'm happy we're here.

It's such a quiet place, the kid has the garden, she sees trees,

listens to birds.

We even get woken up by a rooster.

- Right, love? Seriously?

We almost never see her, she's always in the garden...

...playing with her dolls.

And later she can walk to school or wherever.

In Mexico City they can't even walk to the comer on their own.

Mexico City is screwed up. - Yes. It's scary.

- Wow, the garden's huge.

- This is only a bit of it.

You should see the rest. It's a jungle.

We're going to sort it out once we finish with the house.

- It's looking great. -Thank you.

It really is.

You can see it's going well with you two. It makes me so happy.

You can see he's a good guy.

Felipe is just great. And he loves Caro.

And how's Caro with the divorce?

She's doing fine. The truth is when we lived with Alejandro...

...he was always traveling

She almost never saw him.

The good thing is at that age they're still adaptable.

- Soon she won't even remember him. Exactly.

- And kids accept love from anyone. It's true.

- And how are things with Alejandro? - What was the last thing I told you?

- He lost his job. - Right.

And since he had nothing to do he started bringing the girl home from school every day.

Apart from Sundays, when he used to see her anyway.

It got to the point where I saw him every day.

You poor thing.

And naturally I started having problems with Felipe.

-of course. -Just imagine.

And then when he found out we were moving he went crazy.

He won't let me go from Mexico City.

But I have the right to move on with my life.

I shouldn't have to be asking for his permission.

And it was quick as that?

Yes, this woman is pretty good.

Actually she's not a civil lawyer, she does criminal law.

And that's another level. They have to be much more careful.

It isn't the same.

- So you haven't heard anything? - Only through the lawyer.

Although Felipe's always thinking he sees him.

Really? -Yes.

A few weeks ago he thought he saw him at the mall...

...and the other day outside the house.

What'd he be doing in Cholula for God's sake?

- Does Felipe know him? - From photos.

But it wasn't him.

I don't think so.

He doesn't know where I am.

How are you two doing?

To be honest...

...there are days I can't stand him.

- But are you going to split up or not? I don't know.

But I want to get pregnant.

I can imagine.

Shall we go inside?

Thanks.

- What's happening love? Finished? -Yes.

Addicts. -The garden is lovely.

- Just a little.

I'd like to talk to a psychologist.

Don't exaggerate. There's no need.

These are very delicate issues.

And she isn't stupid.

Soon I'll be showing.

It's true.

But if she loves her dolls, don't you think she'll love a little brother?

It's not the same, Felipe.

When Lourdes was born I became asthmatic.

Whats that got to do with it?

Caro!

Caro!

Carolina!

What are you doing? Get out of there!

Out! Get out!

Come on! Up!

What's wrong with you, you stupid little idiot!

You could have died in there, stupid!

Why do you never listen to me?

I'm your father now, and you're going to have to live with it!

Tomorrow I'm putting a lid and a padlock on this

and you're never going in again! Understand?

Felipe!

What happened darling?

Felipe!

Caro, what happened? What did you do? Why did your Dad get angry?
