[Mónica] Welcome
to a new Inter-American Convention

of Horizontal Property Superintendents.

IN THE PREVIOUS EPISODE

-My friend.
-I didn't know there were others here.

Don't tell me you've joined a union.

I've had enough.

You've done nothing but whine.

I thought you'd be here tomorrow.
Did you decide to return earlier?

What's this?

Now I know exactly what I have to do.

I hope you're ready for war.

Welcome to Eliseo's empire.

[Beba] What a son of a bitch.

[machine beeping]

Can you make me an assortment of these
for some presents?

[deli worker] I can make you a board,

like the ones some companies give out
as gifts.

-Okay.
-Yes?

We can add some Santa María salami.

It's amazing. Pure pork.
It's from Colonia Caroya.

No, they won't appreciate it.

These are gifts for people with no palate.

So it should be quantity
over quality, you see?

Give me the discarded bits, the rinds.

I'm sure you have around
some ham and cheese ends leftover.

Put together something nice with that.

And add a can of mixed vegetables
and legumes to each board.

I have to return those. They're expired.

I'll buy them from you.
Give me a discount.

Look at this.

"To be consumed preferably
before April 2024."

That's just a suggestion.

It doesn't say they're expired,
so you can add them.

On the board, make a little nest
with kraft paper balls.

Crumple them like this
and place the products on top.

It'll look fantastic. Okay?

Okay.

THE BOSS 3

[María] Your housemaid María,
do you know if she has any days off?

We're kind of desperate.

[Romina] No,
María no longer works with us.

Since I moved back here, I have a new maid
and I don't think she's available.

Mario, it's time.
Can we start? I want to leave soon.

Yes, sure.

Well, the only item on the agenda today
is the comprehensive budget review.

Hmm.

Many homeowners approached me

to express their concern
about the high cost of maintenance fees.

So we decided to hold this meeting

to see if together we can
think of some cost-cutting ideas, okay?

Who would like to start?

As both owner and superintendent,
I would like to start.

I did some numbers, Messina,

and came up with some proposals
to protect everyone's pockets.

Please, Doctor, can you pass these around?

You too, Mrs. Romina.

Basically, I propose three points
to save us some money.

The first one is to get rid
of the superintendent's assistant, Miguel.

How long has he been working here?
Do we have to compensate him?

No, we don't have to.

I'll offer him a voluntary
resignation plan with many benefits.

Which brings me to the second point.

We can do the same with Gabriel Marchetti,
the security employee.

And the third point to save us money.

Given the relationship I have
with all our suppliers for over 30 years,

I'm going to sit with them to renegotiate
and ask them for a 35% monthly discount.

Thirty-five percent, Eliseo?
Who's going to accept that?

The supplier that doesn't
will be replaced.

On those sheets I handed out,
you'll see the savings are significant.

-Ah! How thorough, Eliseo.
-Well.

I really can't imagine
what we'd do without you.

[chuckles softly]

PROBLEMS WITH YOUR SUPERINTENDENT?
BIS HAS THE SOLUTION

Good morning, Eliseo.

Sorry, Eliseo, you wanted to see me?

Come with me.

[door opens]

Sit down, please.

[Miguel sniffs]

All right, I don't think
the situation merits an introduction.

I will try to be clear and concise.

As of right now,

you're completely relieved of your duties
as superintendent's assistant.

-Eliseo, I--
-No, let me finish.

Do you know what hurt me the most, Miguel?

It's not the fact that you used my house
to perform a primitive act with that girl,

and I don't even want to picture it,

but the fact
that you were caught so easily.

After everything I taught you,
and the way I trained you,

how couldn't you think of something
to fool me?

It was such a big disappointment, Miguel.

A huge disappointment.

Because you knew rule number one.
You knew it perfectly.

What's rule number one?

Deny everything,
even if you're caught red-handed.

But you'd already seen the girl.
What could I do?

-I don't know...
-You still deny it.

Okay. I'm sorry. You're right.

I'll get better.
I'm going to be just like you. I promise.

It's too late.

You're going to hand in
your resignation letter,

because if I have to disclose
to the owners' association

the reason why I fired you,
you'll feel very humiliated.

Here's the telegram.

You just have to take it
to the post office.

Hmm?

Thank you.

Miguel.

However, I don't like being responsible
for ruining anyone's livelihood,

so I have a proposal for you.

Really?

I need an employee for my new company,
Basurto Integral Solutions.

What kind of company?

Superintendents management.

That way, the owners' associations
can save the fixed cost of an employee.

So it's like a janitorial service.

No, not at all.

Those companies just send two guys
who clean and are out in an hour.

We manage superintendents
and we make them work full-time.

Good. So what?
Can I be one of your superintendents?

No, dear.
You're not qualified, unfortunately.

I'm offering you an administrative job.

But rest assured,

you'll earn a lot more money
than you're earning now.

In fact, you can start today
handing out flyers in the neighborhood.

Are you interested?

MAILBOX

[Gómez] Okay, Dad.

Come on.

Open your mouth, come on.

Come on! Open your mouth.

There, there. There we go.

Good job!

Very good.

But do you know what you eat this with?
A little bit of mashed potatoes.

-[cell phone ringing]
-Okay, one sec, Dad.

Silva.

No, I didn't see anything.

What? You mean right now?

[scoffs]

No. What do I know?

Nothing about Eliseo surprises me anymore.

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

[engine revving]

What a son of a bitch.

[doorbell buzzes]

-Good morning, Miguel. Come in.
-Excuse me.

SUPERINTENDENT

Okay, this is the call center and HQ
of Basurto Integral Solutions.

That's my desk,
for my exclusive and personal use,

and this slightly smaller one is for you.

-What? I have my own desk?
-No, it's not yours. It's the company's.

But it is your work station, yes.

You must also remember this.

The glass door is the boundary.

My house is behind that door.
You can't go in there.

Everything else is the office
and you can walk freely.

If you need the bathroom,
use the bathroom over there,

in the service quarters,
behind the kitchen.

-Understood?
-Yes.

[telephone ringing]

First call. Be calm. You'll take it.

"Basurto Integral Solutions,
how can I help you?"

Come on, come on.

[breathes deeply]

-Basurto Integral Services.
-Solutions.

I mean, Basurto Integral Solutions.
Sorry, it's my first day.

Yes, tell me, how I can help you?

Perfect.

Yes. Sure. Can you give me
one second, please?

Thank you.

The owners' association president
at Arismendi and Virrey Loreto building.

She wants to know
what services the company offers.

Hello?

Hello, how are you?

I'm Eliseo,
CEO of Basurto Integral Solutions.

Well, I'm so glad.

Would you like to have a personal meeting
so we can go over our services?

At your building. Perfect.
That's wonderful.

Give me a second to check our schedule
because we're swamped.

[chuckles]

Dear member.

It is our pleasure to inform you
that you have been selected

as the winner of a delicious
charcuterie board for four people

that includes various
high-quality cured meats.

No, "cured" is with a "C."

Sorry.

Keep going. Good.

To claim your prize,
which is personal and non-transferable,

we ask you to go to Migliora Deli,

located at Coronel Ortiz 1327, Quilmes.

-Quilmes?
-Yes.

It's like an hour away. Why so far?

I need the area to be clear
to talk to the owners' associations.

-You just write what I'm saying.
-Yes.

Where were we?

"We ask you to go to Migliora Deli,
located at Coronel Ortiz 1327, Quilmes,

"Tuesday, October 9, at 7:00 p.m."

"Wednesday, October 10, at 7:00 p.m."

"Thursday, October 11, at 7:00 p.m."

"Friday, October 12, at 7:00 p.m.

"We hope you enjoy this well-deserved gift
with your loved ones."

That's great.

[elevator clanks]

Clarita, my love, wish me luck.

If this goes well,
no one will be able to stop me.

[breathes deeply]

You probably think your superintendent
is costing you a lot of money

and spends all day fooling around.

And you may be right.

The truth is nobody wants to spend money
on someone who doesn't deserve it.

However, nothing will be solved

by leaving a building adrift,
unprotected and unsupervised.

Awful things happen in the world
when no one's looking.

Very awful things.

By hiring Basurto Integral Solutions,

you can rely on the seriousness

and support from a professional
with over 30 years of experience

in managing high-end buildings.

Our pillars are efficiency, security,

promptness, neatness, trust,

and, above all, low costs.

In the folders I gave you,

you can compare a budget
especially designed for this building.

As you can see,
the difference with what you spend today

is considerable.

Yes, but we would lose
the savings you propose

by compensating
the current superintendent.

Garrido's been working here
for over 30 years.

Garrido won't have to be compensated
because he won't get fired.

He will resign.

It's simple.

The owners' association will cease
to employ the superintendent,

and he'll be absorbed by my company,
Basurto Integral Solutions.

Right, and who
will convince him to quit? You?

If so you decide, yes, I will.

-What if he won't join your company?
-He will.

The power of persuasion
is my company's forte.

Besides, he'll earn a much higher salary
than the one he gets here.

Don't worry. Study the proposal.

Thank you very much for listening
and call me when you're ready.

Good afternoon.

-Afternoon.
-Afternoon.

[chattering indistinctly]

[whistles]

Miguel.

Ah! Hi.

Come here one second.

So how's the new job?

Well, I don't know.

Honestly, it's not what I expected.

With Eliseo,
nothing is ever what you expect.

I was preparing to be a superintendent.
It was my dream.

And now, I don't know,
I feel like a secretary

who answers the phone
and hands out flyers.

You're not looking at the big picture.

You lack vision.

I don't get it.

-Didn't you want to be a superintendent?
-Yes. So?

Well, to be a superintendent,
your boss has to go.

You're in the lion's den.

You have access to sensitive information
that can help us both.

You want me to spy on Eliseo?

No, I don't want anything.

I'm giving you a piece of advice.
You decide if you take it or not.

You'll miss your bus. Go. See you soon.

[hinges creak]

[glass clinking]

Eliseo, you scared me.
What are you doing here?

How long
have we known each other, Garrido?

Over 30 years, right?

Yes, 30 years. A lifetime.

And we've always got along, right?

Yes, of course.

-Why? Did something happen?
-No, nothing.

I have a proposal for you.

It's cold outside. Let's go inside?

-Yes.
-Okay.

It's very simple.

You hand in your resignation letter
and I hire you in my company.

Tell me, Eliseo, why should I accept that?

Because the owners' association
already decided.

A dismissal for just cause would be worse.

-There is no just cause.
-There's not?

-But you told me yourself.
-What?

Look.

Article 24
of the collective bargaining agreement

says that the superintendent
can only occupy his living quarters,

and I quote, "with his wife and children,

"being strictly forbidden to house,
even temporarily,

"people not related
to his immediate family."

In Rio, you told me
that you have a boy living with you.

[seagulls squawking]

-You went shopping, Garrido?
-Yes.

-I bought this shirt.
-Okay.

And for Claudito,
a Christ that changes colors, look.

Who is Claudito?

The son of a friend from Cipolletti
who came to Buenos Aires to study.

He's staying with me.
I love him like a son.

You mustn't love him much
if that's the gift you'll give him.

What does it have to do with anything?

Claudito came to study.
He has nowhere to stay.

I was just helping him.

Garrido, a friend isn't a relative.
The agreement is clear.

Besides, how long has Claudito
been staying with you?

A year or so.

Then it's worse
than what I imagined, Garrido.

You can't use your house as a hotel.

It's grounds for dismissal.

[Pelusa panting]

Garrido, I'm glad I found you.

-Sorry to interrupt.
-No, please.

Can you take Pelusa for a walk? It's late.

[Pelusa barks]

I propose a reorganization.
You'll still do the usual work.

-Would I still get the same salary?
-No.

Under my wing,
you'll make more money, Garrido.

Everyone wins.

The owners' association
saves in social contributions.

Have you seen the money
that the union takes out of your pay?

That'll go right into your pocket.

And if you add up the profits,
all the bonuses, extras, and prizes,

you'll get a good deal, Garrido.

[Pelusa barks]

I wouldn't mind earning a little more.
Things have been hard.

Besides, I'd still have a job
as a dependent employee.

Not with me.

No, because my employees
are service providers.

So-called entrepreneurs.

Also, the term "dependent"
means submission.

See what I mean?

Instead, the word "entrepreneur"
means self-reliance.

It's completely different.

No need to give me an answer now.
There's no rush.

But I do need your answer by tomorrow.

-Okay?
-Yes.

Bye, cutie. Bye, my love.
Take her back, poor thing.

[Pelusa barking]

[door opens]

I can't believe it.
Are you General Salustri's granddaughters?

Paulita and Laurita?

I can't believe it.

You're so big!

I've known you since you were little.
You look beautiful.

How lovely.
So are you living at Grandpa's?

[both] Yes.

Yes.

I was so sad when your grandparents
moved to a care home.

Do you go visit them?

-Yes.
-We're on our way to see them.

That's important. That's wonderful.

-[machinery clangs]
-There's the elevator.

[Eliseo grunts and sighs]

What a nice trip.

-How's Grandpa doing?
-Good. Same as always.

Lately, he seemed a bit lost.
He'd tell me all kinds of weird things.

He says what many cowards
are afraid to say.

I wish more men
had my grandfather's balls.

[elevator clangs]

Well, if you need anything, ring my bell.
I'm always home, okay?

Okay, see you.

Have a nice day.

Look at the twins.

They're more army-loving than Grandpa.

Huh!

[car horn honking]

What's wrong? You look mad.

I think you're going too far, Eliseo.

Have you been handing out flyers
in my building?

So what? There's nothing wrong with that.

I'm offering alternatives
to the owners' associations.

They're free to choose,
and I'm free to start a new business.

I'm not making anyone do anything.

Many people in the neighborhood think
you're a son of a bitch with no morals.

And you're among those people, aren't you?

There's no need to point fingers.
They're many. It's like a general feeling.

Do these people know
that everyone benefits with me?

Or they're just the feeble-minded
who can't do the math?

I mean, I love to see you make progress.

I'm telling you for your own good
because you still have time to stop.

If you go down that road,
it can end up badly for you.

[chuckles] I love seeing
those who stand in my way.

Nothing makes me happier
than seeing people fail.

Bye, Gómez.

-What's up, Morales?
-What's up, Eliseo?

-All good?
-Good. And you?

Good.

How does it feel?

-Good? Just...
-Yes.

Move the way you normally move.

Huh?

-Yes.
-Is it comfortable?

-Yes.
-Turn around.

-Let me see.
-It's light. I like it.

-It's light.
-Yes, yes.

You now represent a brand, Garrido.

This uniform has to be clean and pressed
all times, as it should be.

-Count on it.
-Okay?

-No problem. It's great.
-Okay.

-Bye. See you next time.
-See you next month.

Have a good one.

Who is that?

That's Muñoz. He cleans the water tank.

And he leaves just like that?

Just like what?

-He doesn't pay you a fee?
-What?

Garrido, you have so much to learn.
I can't believe this.

No service provider of this building
can leave without paying the access fee.

I keep 30% and you keep 70% of that money.

What if a supplier doesn't want to pay?

He will never work again.

But all these guys know it.
The superintendents should get something.

They're obviously fooling you,
but no more.

Now I'm here to have your back.
Your life has changed.

Come on!

Tell me, does the building
currently have a superintendent?

Okay. How long has he been working there?

Ah! That's a long time.

No, we'd take care of everything.

You're very kind.
Thank you for contacting us.

We'll talk soon. Bye.

[Miguel chuckles]

This is amazing.

I booked you five meetings
with owners' associations.

-Good.
-How did it go with Garrido?

How do you think it went?

-I don't know. Did you convince him?
-Of course I convinced him.

I can't believe it!

And I can't believe
you doubt my abilities.

I have to say,
if you don't fully trust the project,

you have to step aside, Miguel.
Is that clear?

-Yes.
-Thank you.

[door clicks]

[keys jangling]

All right.

Which will be my next conquest?

BELGRANO NEIGHBORHOOD

[laughing]

Froilán Ravarotto. Mmm-hmm.

Good morning, Froilán.
How are you? Have you got a minute?

Not for you. I'm working.

Ah! But I came to talk about work.

I know what you're doing.
Get out of here before I kick your ass.

Oh, my! Do you always behave
with that level of old-fashioned violence?

No, only when a vulture comes by
wanting to take what's mine.

Beat it, you son of a bitch.

I'm being serious.

I'm not here to take anything from you.

I come to offer you something
that can make you lots of money, Froilán.

Eliseo, you were always
an opportunist son of a bitch,

but at least you used to prey
on people like them.

Now you're coming for us?
You crossed a line and I won't allow it.

Beat it or I'll smash your face in.

Oh! All right. Perfect.

-Good morning.
-Hi, good morning.

-Froilán, how are you?
-Fine, thanks to God and my work.

How can I help you?

I'm expecting a couch delivery next week,
but I won't be here for 10 days.

Can I leave you my key
and you take care of it?

Yes, of course.

Where are you off to? Rome? New York?

Dubai this time.

Oh! Take care and cover yourself up.
They're very strict there.

Yes, Froilán, don't worry.

Here you go. Thank you.

-Perfect. Have a nice trip, Guadalupe.
-See you.

-Bye. See you later.
-Bye.

I'll open for you, miss.

I believe you're not thinking straight.
I really mean it.

I don't care.
I don't want to hear you anymore.

Okay, whatever you say. It's fine.

Careful.

Don't try any of your tricks
because I know you well, you sleaze.

Relax, stay cool. See you soon, dear.

So they leave you their keys?
You're done for, man.

"Careful.

"Don't try any of your tricks
because I know you well,

"you sleaze."

[insect buzzing]

Now you'll know how sleazy I can be,

asshole.

[Eliseo yells]

[dogs barking]

Shit.

Eliseo?

Eliseo, is that you?

It's me.

Clarita?
