All language subtitles for Acapulco.2021.S02E02

Hugo,
do you know what day February 2nd is?

Sure. It's Groundhog Day.

Groundhog Day?

Groundhog Day?

Joe, stop the car.

No, I'm not stopping the car.

Okay. In Mexico,
February 2nd is el Día de la Candelaria.

And it is way better than Groundhog Day.

Because on our day,

whoever got the Baby Jesus

in their piece of the Rosca de Reyes cake
on Three Kings Day,

brings tamales for everyone.

Yeah, that kind of sounds complicated.

Yeah, that sounds way too complicated.

-Plus, groundhogs are cute.
-Groundhogs are lame.

Mexico wins. End of discussion.

Anyway, in January of 1985,
I found the baby.

So, on February 2nd,

I was bringing tamales
for everyone at work.

And that month

that month had been a busy one.

Memo was finally working at the pool
with me.

We made a great team.

The towels need to be rolled.

And best of all, Memo made work more fun.

Even dealing with Héctor.

I'd also started the job
Don Pablo gave me to get closer to Diane.

At home, I was still dating Roberta.

Or so my mom thought.

Meanwhile, that girl, Isabel,

kept bringing posole into the resort…

and taking other things out.

So, what'd you steal today?

A saltshaker, a tiny act of defiance.

It became our routine.

Every time I saw her,
I'd ask what she stole.

Héctor's hair spray?

Now you're playing with fire.

What can I say?

-I live on the edge.
-Where is it?

I'm losing volume.

Anyway, it was finally February 2nd,

and everyone was excited
because it was not Groundhog Day.

But I had other things on my mind.

URGENT
SETTLE OUTSTANDING BALANCE

Remember, last Christmas,
my mother got her eye surgery.

Thank you so much, Doctor.

My job is going to promote me this week.

I promise to pay it off by March.

Okay, but if you don't finish paying
in the next three months,

I'll put her cataracts back in.

It's only a joke.

We'll just seize all your belongings.

But I did not get that promotion.

In fact, I was making less money
after my deal with Héctor.

My family had no idea,

but we were on the brink of disaster.

We just got another notice

about the money we owe
for my mom's surgery.

We're in real trouble.

But it's okay,
I'll just have to push myself.

There's always a way.

Of course there's always a way!

You're Máximo Gallardo.

Thanks for reminding me of my name.

Ooh, can you also remind me
to pick up the tamales at lunch?

My mom's making them right now.

Of course!

I can't wait for the tamale party.

I barely see Lorena anymore since
I stopped working in the laundry room.

Lupe won't let you in there, huh?

Her exact words were,

"Set one foot in this room
and I'll cut it off."

I'm hoping she meant my foot,

but that's not where she was pointing.

Is that Fabián Solares? The gossip guy?

From Espectacular?

Yeah, it is. My mom watches him every day.

No, no, don't look at him.

Yeah, I don't want to get into trouble.

Hello, my handsome friends!

I hear you might have a certain famous
tennis player staying with you.

Any info you can give me?

Sorry, I don't know anything.

Well, can I ask for your names?

We don't have names!

Come on, Máximo.

We'll need six more
of your dresses with the shoulder pads,

but quadruple the size of the pads.

Isn't that too much?

I want a plane
to be able to land on these shoulders.

Hey, Julia.

I figured it out. Okay.

You remember the guy at the Olympics
who flew in on the jet pack?

That's how I want us to enter our wedding.

Your wedding plans
are chugging right along.

I am so… to hear that.

I could not be more… for you.

And I mean every word.

We're thinking about December.

This December?

She really wants to lock you in
before you change your mind, huh?

Well, it was actually my idea.

He really wants to lock you in
before you change your mind, huh?

We can get it organized on time.
It's just a small wedding, Diane.

Small. So smart. Fewer gifts to return
if it doesn't work out, right?

I'm kidding, of course!

Don't forget. Shoulder pads.

Máximo.

Are you a tennis fan?

Not really.

Are you asking
because you are getting me a present?

I've always wanted a motorbike.

I'm creating an opportunity for you.

When you give Diane
her coffee and paper today,

be a tennis fan.

Also, I believe your friend has arrived

for his exhibition match
against his tennis rival.

A world-class player
should get world-class service.

Maybe he should have a personal liaison.

I can do it. I'm a tennis fan.

Oh, really?

The biggest. I love drop shots,
the Eastern forehand grip.

I'm so glad Walter Wingfield developed
the modern version of the game in 1873.

Great.

And maybe don't talk too much
about tennis.

You got it.

If I help a star tennis player,

I might just get the tips
that we needed to survive.

Here we go. Héctor's Nectar.

I think those shorts
stayed in the drier too long.

Any smaller
and I get to meet "Héctorcito."

Making fun of the boss.

Love that, hey? Love.

Now, listen.

A very, very, very special guest

with a very, very, very, very,
very big wallet

has requested her favorite chair today.

So, I need you to keep it free
till she shows up.

-Can't we use our reserve sign?
-Those never work.

Our guests from the US
always plop down on top of them.

So, I need you to sit right on this chair.

So, my job is to sit here?

-You got it.
-On this chair.

-That's right.
-Just sit?

-Correct.
-Right there?

-Bingo.
-That's all?

That's all.

-I do what?
-You sit.

-I sit where?
-On this chair.

-Besides that.
-Not a thing.

-Okay, I sit here.
-Yes, again.

-On this chair.
-Are we on a loop?

-One more time--
-Just sit down!

Okay.

This is important. Do you understand?

I better not see you
standing up on the job.

-Wow.
-Hey. Hi.

-No pictures, please.
-Sorry.

Come on. I'm kidding.

Hi! I'm Máximo.

Diane assigned me to be here
for anything you need.

Sweet! All right.

Now, I'm gonna work you,
but there's a big tip waiting for you.

Okay?

First thing,
I need a pool cabana set up with a TV

and the video game system I brought.

It's in the bag on my couch.

Right away. I'm happy to serve you.

Serve.

Tennis pun. Good one.

Right! That's what I was going for.

Any messages?

Aaron Azzaro, but I know you knew that.

Not at the moment, Mr. Azzaro.
But I'll be sure to let you know.

You do that, sweetie.

God, what a jackass.

Nice front desk voice.

I don't know what you mean, ma'am.

Sara.

What are you doing here?

You said you were going to the butcher.

What's going on with you two?

Máximo broke up with Roberta this morning.

The poor girl kept crying,
so I was comforting her.

I know you think he's an angel,

but there is a side to him you don't know

he cheated on her with a red-haired girl…

who's very, very tall…

Her name is…

"Skye."

My Máximo?!

I was on my way to meet Aaron
with his video game, when--

Máximo.

This is my friend I was telling you about.

Your friend, the star tennis player?

Jann Berglund himself.

The Striking Viking.

The Speedy Swedey.

I don't care for those nicknames.

Please don't use those nicknames, Máximo.

Máximo here will take great care of you

and get you all ready
for your match tomorrow with Aaron Azzaro.

I'll see you at dinner.

So, Diane tells me
you will be devoted just to me. Correct?

Suddenly, I had a chance
to make twice as much money for my family.

But what was I supposed to do?
Be in two places at once?

I'm all yours.

There's always a way.

Good. Meet me in the gym in five minutes.

Okay. Not a problem.

I'm happy to serve you.

Like tennis.

Serve?

Okay. See you there.

Hey! It's on!

All right. Check out my new game.

Look, dude, it's me.

Wow, I feel like I'm courtside
at the Wimble-- man.

Come on. Let's play two-player.

The graphics are great.
They just nailed the hair.

Oh, no! The power mysteriously went out!

I'll go check.

Okay, let's pump some iron.

This music. It's too slow.

This is barley-growing music.

Our musicians just got here,
so I'll go have them change it.

Oh, good, the power's back on!
Thanks, guys!

Finally! Let's do this.

Yes! Right after I refill your drink.

Gotta hydrate for tomorrow's match.

This music is better. I feel energized.

Spot me for ten.

Or maybe we can see if you can hold
this weight up for two minutes?

Is that a new kind of training?

Yes. Very cutting-edge.

Ready? And…

-Here you go.
-Oh, thanks!

Okay, now sit your butt down
and get your ass kicked.

Oh, whoops! That's mine.

Yeah, let's just play.

How much longer?

You're right. Better not to know.

-"Bodacious."
-In your face.

In my face.

Whoa! Do not touch the hair.

Got it. You should go back to one-player
while I re-refill your lemonade.

Nice job!

You know what?

I was starting to think I couldn't do it.

But you were right. You're a good trainer.

Hey. You did the work.

I didn't even need to be here.

Water?

Can you believe your mom
doesn't want us to get married?

What are we gonna do about that?

Well, you know, keep in mind, okay,

she is a single mother,
and her only child is getting married.

That's a big deal.

We need to be patient and sympathetic
with her emotions,

and over time, she will come around.

-Promise.
-You don't wanna confront her.

Scared to death.

Okay.

Aaron's reviewing match tapes,
and Jann's at lunch,

so I can finally take a break.

Lucky. I haven't had a break all day.

What?

Sitting in the sun all day is tiring.

How are you gonna keep this up?

If they find out you've been working
for both of them, it's going to be bad.

It's gonna be worse
if I don't pay off these debts.

I have to do this.
I just need a little rest.

-You asked me to remind you about--
-The tamales! I forgot the tamales.

While you're up, can you get me a--
Okay, never mind.

Are the tamales ready, Mom?

Sorry, I'm in a hurry--

Um… hi, everyone.

Roberta! How are you, my love?

How is she?!

Her heart is broken!

-It is?
-Oh, my God, Máximo!

You act like you didn't just
break up with her this morning.

And that's why Mom
saw me comforting her in town.

Yes…

That's right… I did that.

Thank you…

Listen to him, it's like he's proud of it!

Unbelievable.

So who is this Skye?

Skye is… a girl?

A girl you've been secretly seeing
behind my back!

I can't believe it.

Oh, right. Skye. Yes.

My secret girlfriend.

Well, he said it.

In case there was any doubt before,

Skye is real.

Here-

…Because you're crying.

Máximo.

How could you have done such a thing?

It's not clear to me either.

I'll explain everything later… Maybe.

Sorry, Roberta. Thanks, Mom!

-Men.
-Why even bother with them?

The Roberta fiasco made me late,
but I was hopeful

I could still get back to Aaron and Jann
before anything bad could--

So why don't you and your stupid hair
find a different hotel?

Stupid? Joke's on you.

Sports Illustrated
said I look like a bird of prey.

Okay, this was bad.

But as long as they didn't both see me,
I could--

-Tell him he has to leave.
-Help me get rid of this guy!

Nope. This was gonna be tough.

Don't worry. I got your back.

Get out of here, you.

Wait. Which one of us are you talking to?

I think it's pretty clear
whose side I'm on.

So the other one, go on. Hit the road.

Wait. Whose side are you on?

-Well--
-Gentlemen.

Surely any differences you have

could be settled on the court tomorrow.

No?

Máximo.

What's happening here?

I'm sorry. I got confused.

I met Aaron first, then Jann.

I really need the money.
I served them both.

But I was cheating on them.

Just like I cheated on
my pretend-girlfriend Roberta

with my other pretend-girlfriend…

Skye.

Don't you know the saying of

"the dog with two sandwiches"?

You try too hard to have everything,
you end up with nothing.

You are lucky your story
won't end the same way.

Since you committed to Aaron first,

I'll find someone else
to take care of Jann.

Impressing Diane
will have to wait for another day.

And so would that second big tip.

Hi, Diane. May I?

Sure.

Chad and I
just wanted to thank you so much

for helping us plan our wedding.

Well, of course.

Unfortunately, at this time,
we feel we need to make our own decisions.

We appreciate your understanding.

Hold on.

Are you using
your front desk voice with me?

Again, your satisfaction is
incredibly important to Chad and me.

You don't know who you're messing with.

I spent 20 years in Hollywood.
I can play this game.

And I agree.

You two should make your own decisions.

I hope one day
you'll be mature enough to do so.

Well, as you may know,

wisdom doesn't necessarily come
with age, Diane.

You'd be foolish not to listen
to someone who's been married three times.

We're actually hoping to get it right
the first time.

Too late. Who gets married in December?

-You're competing with Baby Jesus.
-Good news then!

We just moved our wedding up to June.

What?

I don't know why, but you've
never liked that I'm dating your son.

Okay. Well, honestly, no.

But it has nothing to do with you.

Obviously, I like you.
We're business partners.

You two are just at different places
in your lives.

You're not the right people
for each other.

Well, you can't know that.

I can't?

Tell me,
is Chad really the love of your life?

Yes, he is.

And we're getting married. In June.

And we would really appreciate it if you
can just be happy for us and on board.

Please.

Okay. Maybe I went too far. I'm sorry.

I need to let you make your own decisions.

And I do hope
you're right about you and Chad.

Trust me, I want nothing more
than for the two of you to be happy.

Thank you.

And I told him,
"Not today, but maybe tomorrow."

Hey, Adriana. Looking good.

I think Pam Dawber has that outfit.

It's hard to remember.
We've hung out a bunch.

Anyway, I got something for you.

Just thought you would like it.

Cool. Thanks.

-So I was thinking maybe Saturday--
-Yeah, And I--

Yeah, that went well.

So you talked to her
and you convinced her?

I wish I would've had you around
when I was 15.

I could've got that cool tattoo
with dolphins crisscrossing.

Yeah, I'm with your mom on that one.

Isabel! Want some tamales? How are you?

Thanks, but I can't stay.

I'm just making my delivery

and thought I'd say hi to Máximo
if he was around.

Well, I-- I haven't seen him,

but it's weird 'cause he's the one
who brought us the tamales.

So, what's Máximo's deal?

I think he's Mexican.

No, I mean what do you think of him?

We love Máximo.

-Yeah.
-Are you thinking about asking him out?

Maybe. Julia?

You should.

She should, babe. You should.
You'd be really cute together.

Okay, maybe I will. I'll keep you posted.

Okay.

Some of these
just aren't as full as the other ones.

-Hey!
-Hey.

I didn't want you to miss out.

Oh, thank you! That's so sweet!

That guest still hasn't come?

You've sat here the entire day.

It's like some sort of torture.

Oh, my God.

The guest does not exist!

This morning
I made fun of Héctor's shorts,

so as payback,
he made me sit here all day in the sun.

It is torture!

That short shorts-wearing bastard.

Well, at least I'm free now.

Come on, let's get back to that party.

After a quick bathroom stop.

Maybe not so quick,

I drank eight glasses of water.

Wow, how could I have fallen for his lie
about the big tip?

Right this way, please.
Here we go. Watch your step.

Where did he…

Oh, well.

-Here you go, Miss Leonora.
-Thank you, Héctor.

You know you don't have to, but thank you.

I'll be right back
with a couple of mango margaritas.

Okay. So, obviously,
we need to be even more careful.

-Here's what I'm thinking--
-Sara.

I'll tell my mom
I'm volunteering at the library,

and she'll never go check
'cause she hates being quiet.

Sara…

What?

I can't do this anymore.

It's too much.

All the lying and sneaking around…

My parents are getting suspicious too,
and they…

I just can't risk them finding out.

Are you breaking up with me?

I don't want to.

Then don't!

We have to stop seeing each other
for a while.

Okay! That's everything you asked for.

Is there anything else you need?

No. That's it for today. Thanks. Hey.

Are you ready for your tip?

-You deserve it. You've earned it.
-Yes, sir.

Okay.

Now, the key to anticipating
your opponent's next move

is to watch their eyes
during their backswing.

-Okay.
-Awesome. Thanks again, buddy.

So, my tip?

Yeah, that was it.

People pay me thousands
for that kind of advice.

As great as that was,
I was really hoping for some actual money.

Wow. Not enough for you, huh?

You people.

Here you go. Five bucks.
I bet that's worth a lot down here. Right?

No, that's not fair.
You worked your ass off for that jerk.

Even worse, I needed that money.

My family was on the edge.
We were at risk of losing everything.

But then…

I remembered.

The graphics are great.
They just nailed the hair.

If you really stretch yourself…

Whoops. That's mine.

Do not touch

the hair.

…there's always a way.

The trick was
I had to stretch not what I could do,

but what I was willing to do.

"Espectacular!"

We escaped the guards

and we were able to get into Las Colinas.

Aaron Azzaro
will be coming out any moment.

There he is!

Thank you.

Aaron Azzaro.

Sources tell us
that this isn't your real hair.

Any comment?

What? That's-- That's-- That's a lie.

That's a hundred percent--
You know, it's--

Go-- This isn't what it looks like! Okay?

And that evening,

I told my family
we would finally pay off our debts.

For at least one night,

we got to forget all our problems
and celebrate.

Yes! You got the money
and you got revenge.

You won.

No, Hugo. I lost.

I had crossed a line
that I shouldn't have.

And soon, my deal with Fabián

would come back to haunt me
in ways that I never could have imagined.

A dark time in my life was approaching.

Oh, boy. Time for lunch.

-Come on.
-Joe, it's my treat.

Yeah, no shit.

Anyway, that night,

I had a feeling
that I just couldn't shake.

Who was I becoming, Hugo?

How could I still be proud
to be Máximo Gallardo?

It would be a long time
before I had the answer.
