Damn, check out her tits, man ! They're huge!

Not as nice as the Paraguayan's.

Don't say that.

I'm in deep shit with this taxi thing.

And the fucking lawyer said I won't get the money

till next month.

That's the corner of Talcahuano and Santa Fe.

It's the Cosmos Hotel on Constitucion.

Those Yankees are such assholes!

For them, the bad guys are always Latinos, Blacks, Tahitians...

Whatever!

You could be one too, you know.

But they're right.

The guys who go to the States are all strapped for cash.

They're starving. It's not like it is here, man.

Any asshole can come here and make quick money.

- Have you ever? - No, only the foreigners can.

We work like dogs all day long,

and we're still broke.

Do you have it?

- No, you do. - I do?

Leave some for me.

Can I give you a lift to the hotel?

I don 't know.

Are you tired?

No, I might go dancing.

Do you wanna go for a drive?

I don 't know.

Okay, go eat.

What are you doing?

Don 't you think this film sucks?

You don't like it 'cause you're a fag.

Take care of the kid, Mercado.

Switch back to the other channel.

What?

Good thing you're going back to your village.

Turn up the volume!

- Stop bugging him. - Here comes the boyfriend...

Don't talk so loud.

What are you drinking?

A soda.

Do you want me to get you a red wine?

Okay.

The food's ready.

The salesman has a crush on you.

What?

The salesman...

What about him?

He's a fag.

I don 't think he is.

I hear he's going out with the taxi driver,

Mercado.

Are you ready to pay?

Yeah.

I don 't want any trouble.

- What? - You know exactly what I mean.

I don 't want any trouble in here.

What do you mean?

Do what you like outside, but this is a restaurant.

If you stare at the staff, they get nervous.

I didn 't do anything.

Good.

That'll be 5 pesos.

Make sure you get your share.

Who do you live with here?

I live in a hotel.

Where?

Not far from here.

I need to find another one.

It's expensive here.

And there are always problems with the cops.

My hotel costs 8 pesos.

Is it far from here?

If we take the 96 bus, we'll be there in 10 minutes.

- Bye, Enrique, thanks. - Leave the door open.

Beware of her.

I mean it.

We're not taking this one?

It's full, we'll take the next one.

I'll leave, if you want, if you have things to do.

I never go dancing alone.

Do you need a lift?

No, I'm tired tonight.

I thought you wanted to go dancing.

No.

I'm going to the hotel. I'm really tired.

You don't want to, or you have other plans?

No, I just have to take him to the hotel.

Give him the address, we'll meet him there.

I'd rather take the bus. You're not mad, are you?

What's it to you? We'll go for a ride and come back for him later.

I'd rather take the bus.

Does that bother you?

See you.

What did you say?

Are we going soon?

Wait 'til I finish up, and we'll leave.

What did you do in Bolivia?

What did I do?

I worked in the fields, with a combine harvester.

Why did you come here?

Because I worked

picking coca,

picking fruit.

Then,

the Yankees came

and they burnt everything down.

They burnt the fields?

Yes, they burnt everything.

What are you doing?

- This doesn't work. - It works!

- No, it doesn't. - Stop it!

Leave it alone!

It works! What do you want? Are you looking for trouble?

- Okay. - Stop hitting it.

Okay, it works, but fix it anyway.

Forget it. It's late.

Be quiet, there are people here.

Okay.

Hold this, and my bag.

And the 2 pesos?

You 're asking me about the 2 pesos?

You 're the one who brought me here.

You should ask the doorman, not me.

Who is that stupid doorman?

Probably just an asshole!

No, he's a good guy. I know him.

Stop! You're a married man. You shouldn't kiss me!

Didn't you say you liked married men?

Think of your daughters.

My daughters are sleeping.

And I miss them.

Wait, I have to find the room.

Why not here?

Stop, I have to find the room.

Hold this.

I have to find the room.

It's not this one.

Where is it?

He said it had a blue door.

See, you're lost.

Come here.

Let's go to your room.

What room?

Why don't we go to yours?

We can't go to mine, my friend is there.

I live with friends.

With your girlfriends?

We could have a party.

So, now you want to meet my friends too?

Why not? Wouldn't you like that?

Shit, they're not the same batteries.

Did you change the batteries, Rosa?

It's about time you changed them.

The clock doesn't work.

Is your friend coming today?

He went to the car dealer to see if he could have a few more weeks.

He owes me almost 100 pesos.

He owes 400 on his car. They're going to repossess it.

On top of it,

he has to move because he can 't pay the rent.

Is he coming here?

He has to go see the Turk.

How is the Turk doing?

He's making money,

just like us.

He remembers you owe him money.

Here's the money.

- He didn't have change? - No.

Did you go dancing last night?

No, I told you I was too tired.

I thought I saw you at the Bolivian hangout last night.

You were mistaken. And I'm Paraguayan.

Here, take this. Leave that alone.

You don 't know anything about it.

Go to the grill.

Holy shit!

Are these people stupid or what?

They're a bit slow.

I think that they just play dumb.

But if we're not careful, they'll become our bosses.

I don't know, man, shoot myself

or somebody else, you know?

- Stop it! - Bring another one.

I just hope that the Turk's there.

I told him we're coming.

He's expecting us. Keep cool.

That fucking Uruguayan...

You know what he said?

That I should thank him for waiting a month to be paid.

They're taking the bread out of our mouths!

Don't let it get to you.

There's so much misery here!

So much misery!

We open our doors, they come here to work...

How can that be?

It's warm.

I can 't drink this.

I'll bring you another.

Calm down, man.

Easy for you to say.

I'll give you a hand. I'll try to talk to that guy.

That won 't help me.

Do you want to try it?

Were you hiding it? Colder, man !

Don 't you have a cold one?

I can bring ice cubes, if you want.

Ice cubes?

That's okay, pour it anyway.

- Sorry, man. - It's okay.

You two have had enough beer.

Don 't worry, let him drown his sorrows.

Drink, if you want to,

but not too much.

That's not very nice of you.

He helped you out when you needed it, remember?

He owes me enough as it is.

What's up?

How are you, Hector?

Did you see Mercado, that fatso?

I haven 't seen him for a few days.

He's having problems with his wife, they're getting divorced.

He's got a big mouth.

He said he'd come with me

to see the gypsies about the car.

He fucked me over.

I saw him the other day.

He hangs out in the Gallego's bar.

I saw him from the bus.

Do you still have problems with your car?

I'm in deep shit, man !

I need a miracle...

If only money grew on trees

or even fell from the sky...

He left you on your own too, huh ?

He tries to pass himself off as a nice guy.

He wags his tail and then he bites you.

Isn 't everyone like that in Buenos Aires?

Don 't worry about it.

If you see him, tell him I said he's a great guy.

Can I take this away?

Yes, wait a minute.

Marcelo, can you do me a favor, man?

If I can, I will.

I owe fatso some money.

You understand? He wants it back.

He wants his money back.

Can you lend me some cash?

We'll see if he stops bothering me.

Like I said, I've got my hearing next week.

I only have 50 pesos on me,

I've got to pay my rent for the taxi.

I don 't want to be stingy,

or anything...

It's on me.

I'm paying tonight. It's okay.

Thanks, man.

Let's have another round.

One for the road!

Hey you !

Give me a cold beer, this time.

Pay me now.

6 beers in all, that will be 12 pesos.

Okay.

What's the hurry, man?

Have we ever left without paying?

Enough already!

We're closing soon.

When is soon?

What's his problem? Why is he in such a hurry?

Calm yourself. He must not be getting enough.

All the fucking niggers spend their nights here

and he leaves them alone.

I work like a dog all day long,

and I spend all my money here.

And he treats me like shit.

What's your problem, man?

I don't have a problem.

You let any Paraguayan sleep here all night

and you make your living off all the money we spend here.

What's up with that?

I don't make anything with what you owe me.

You forgot what it was like to need help?

Cut it out!

I haven't said a word all day.

I know you've got problems.

I didn't say a thing. Drink your beer and shut up.

What's up with you, man?

You think that I'm like that fucking Bolivian?

A little respect!

Drink up and get out of here!

Watch what you say!

You dirty rat!

Marcelo, get him out of here!

Mother-fucking thief!

Stop it! I already told you I'd pay.

Get him out of here!

I can handle it.

Mind your own business!

I said mind your own business!

You think I need a Bolivian like you to help me?

I don't need help from anyone!

Okay, man. Let's go.

I'm not going anywhere!

I haven't finished my beer yet. I paid for it.

No fucking Paraguayan,

no fucking Bolivian is going to kick me out!

Tell him to calm down.

Finish that beer and leave, or I'll throw you out!

And you, get back to work!

Go clean the TV. We're closing.

What are you watching?

Chilavert the Paraguayan was right.

All Bolivians are assholes.

What the fuck are you doing?

Come here, asshole.

Come on !

Leave him alone, Freddy!

You 're stealing work from Argentineans.

That's it! Get out!

Get out!

You dirty rat!

You hire these fucking foreigners for peanuts

and won 't hire this faggot!

Get the fuck out!

Asshole!

And he's your snitch !

Who do you think you are?

Get the fuck out!

Can't you see he's drunk?

That's enough. Get him out of here!

- So, you're a tough guy? - Fucking foreigner!

Motherfucker!

Fuck you !

- I'm gonna kill you, asshole! - Get out!

Leave him alone, Hector.

Come here, Oso!

Let's go!

Stay there!

Come here, Freddy, enough !

Son of a bitch !

That asshole broke my nose!

Motherfucking bastard!

Stop it! That's enough !

Don 't be an idiot!

He broke my nose!

It's nothing, man.

I'm going to kill him, do you hear me?

Don't make things worse.

Are you saying I'm to blame?

No, what are you talking about?

Look at my face!

It's not your fault, come on.

Come with me.

Shit, come on, Freddy!

Keep cool.

Are you okay?

Don 't worry.

Motherfucker!

Taxi 134 to central.

I need a tow truck.

The license plate?

BNP 719, taxi 104.

What's the location?

Between Pasco and Estados Unidos Streets.

Stay in contact, just in case.

Let's go.

Let's go see the Turk, okay?

Can you open the window?

What for?

I'm hot, open the window.

We're going to see the Turk, don 't worry.

Yeah, let's go.

Tomorrow's another day.

Son of a bitch !

What are you doing?

It's always the same.

They pay, and you think they're gonna stay for 15 days,

and they don 't. You 're stuck with all their stuff.

You have to pack their clothes.

They leave all their stuff.

At least they pay up front.

Or else I'd make no money.

He even left his papers and photos of his family.

I couldn 't care less,

but what am I supposed to do with his things?

I have to put them somewhere. I already have a whole pile

of things people left behind.

I'll tell you,

Iast time, this guy from Salta came with his family...

Then he skipped town

and left me with his wife and kids.

I never saw him again.

Actually we worked...

We worked together.

He had no place to go,

so I brought him here.

You only knew him for 2 days,

and you brought him here!

You've been here for a while. We like you here.

Luckily he paid in advance.

What if I had trusted him because you brought him?

What would I have done?

You would have had to pay.

Do you make enough to pay for someone else's room?

Good morning.

Mr. Galmes, Enrique

and Ms. Rosa Sanchez?

I have a subpoena for you.

This is Ms. Rosa Sanchez.

You have to appear in court number 3 at 10 a.m. tomorrow.

We'll take your statements.

If you don 't come, you 'll be arrested.

I'll be there.

The man didn 't have working papers.

Right.

You 'll have problems.

Hello. Ms. Rosa Sanchez?

Here is a summons to appear in court.

You must come tomorrow with Mr. Galmes.

Okay.

Thank you. Goodbye.

- Do you want something to drink? - No thanks.

Have a nice day.

We'll go to court together on Monday. Meet me here at 9:30.

Don 't say a word about this to anyone, understand?
