Original subtitles

I've never liked a woman this much.

PREVIOUSLY

Paloma is amazing in every sense.

-Your mother needs you right now. -I'm not moving to New Zealand.

-[♪ tense instrumental music playing] -[Gracia breathing deeply]

-[Paca] A few days ago… -I don't want to know.

…I started seeing--

Don't you hear me? Go away, dammit!

There won't be any more lies or secrets, Paca.

[Paca] I didn't know you were into my daughter that much.

Well, now you know.

Miguel has put up with a lot lately, and he's done it for me.

Now it's my turn to support him.

I don't know if it's crazy. Probably.

But marrying you is what I want the most.

I make her happy, that's why she wants to be with me.

You just punish her.

What are you doing?

You are second fiddle!

But I love you.

And I love you.

But we can't.

FOUR MONTHS LATER

[Gracia] I heard once that life is really unfair.

That we need at least two lives.

One for rehearsing and another one for our big show.

I've also heard that happiness is like fog.

You can't see it when you're surrounded by it.

[inaudible chatter]

[Gracia] Maybe that's why we always use the past tense for it.

"I was so happy," we think,

instead of, "I'm so happy."

It takes us a long time, too long,

to understand that we are just tiny specks of dust

floating right here, right now.

That that smile,

that gesture,

and that kiss were everything.

We just didn't value them as we should have.

And that instant slipped through our fingers.

[birds chirping]

-[♪ music concludes] -[sighs]

[Julia sniffles]

[♪ somber instrumental music playing]

[exhales] Bye, Antón.

I hope that, wherever you are now, you can rest.

Here, we'll remember you for the good things, and there were many.

We'll miss you.

[exhales]

A new phase begins.

And everything will be way better, I promise.

-[♪ music intensifies] -[kisses]

[♪ music concludes]

[Tano] Look who's here!

-[all cheer] -[Tano] Hey!

Come on, guys. Thank goodness you're not carrying banners.

I wanted one, but they didn't let me. [squeals]

I'm so happy to have you back home.

-[laughs] -Me too, Mom. I'm very happy.

-[chuckles] -Aw, honey.

We missed you so much. How are you?

Fine. Much better.

Well, well. The city looks very good on you.

-[all laugh] -My wallet disagrees.

Thank God the course ended. Otherwise, I'd be broke.

I'm tired of repeating it, there's only chaos outside Manterana.

[all laugh]

Seriously though, the change of scenery helped me a lot.

[Silvia] Right.

I've learned a lot,

I met colleagues again that I hadn't seen since the academy…

[Silvia] Mm.

…and I enjoyed Madrid as much as I could.

[all laugh]

Is it true that you can party 365 days without going to the same place twice?

Hey…

No idea. I prefer a couple of beers in the afternoon.

Tell me something,

are you going to Madrid to study or to party?

Lucía wants to study at a university in Madrid.

-Ah! -There's time for everything.

[Silvia] No, no.

Shush, Lucía. If your father hears you…

Speaking of, where's Miguel?

ECORANA CO-OP

Done. We just need to sell all this.

Mm. I'd increase the prices.

The prices? Which ones, exactly?

All of them.

We've been too cautious.

We have a high-quality product, and raising the price increases its value.

[Paloma] Mm…

Well, if you think so…

-[♪ gentle instrumental music playing] -I think you're a fantastic engineer,

and you don't even realize how good your product is.

Thank you.

Thank you for the compliment and for working with us on this project.

No. You saved my life.

Let me remind you that I had left El Acebuche and I was unemployed.

Together with my sister, the marketing expert, we make a good team.

-The best. Mm. -Yes.

[♪ music concludes]

-[sighs] -[laughs]

-Hi. -[Paloma] Hey!

-[Miguel] Well, well! -[gasps]

Look, sis!

-[Gracia] Is that what I think it is? -[Paloma] Yes.

[Gracia] My goodness! The packaging and labeling are perfect.

I love them.

They have the gourmet touch we were looking for, right?

[Miguel] Uh-huh.

I love it.

What if we increase the prices?

-What the… -[Miguel chuckling]

[laughs]

-What's wrong? -No, nothing.

I'll crunch the numbers and let you know, but I think we can do it.

[Gracia] Congrats, sis!

[laughs]

Congratulations on the work you did, Miguel, it was a lot.

Same. All this wouldn't have been possible without you.

[♪ somber instrumental music playing]

-[Gracia] What are the next steps? -[Paloma] Mm.

The permits from the Department of Health. The health inspector will be here today.

Don't worry, we'll take care of it. You are getting married in two days.

[Gracia] I have everything under control. I think.

-I want to be here when he comes. -Up to you.

I'll go get some champagne.

Let's celebrate that our co-op, Ecorana,

-is up and running! -[Gracia chuckling]

[♪ music concludes]

I didn't hear you coming.

That was the idea. [chuckles]

Mrs. Quiet… Good morning.

Not that good. I hate waking up and not seeing you by my side.

[chuckles]

I was starving.

Leave it, please. The new girl will do it.

-Uh… I like doing it. -[plate clattering]

Do you mind that I cooked?

-No, don't be silly. -[water running]

[Paca] I already told you, this is your home.

Or it would be, if you wanted.

[chuckles softly]

[Tomás] Good morning.

Hi.

You are early.

[Tomás] We need to sort out a few things.

-Okay, I've got to go anyway. -So soon?

No, stay for lunch. I can work with Tomás later.

No, no, no. I'm meeting my daughters. I have to see Gracia's dress.

-Tomás. -Laura.

Well?

Pilar has already received the payment we agreed upon.

Is she still with her relatives by the seaside?

Far from Manterana and near the prison

where her husband is being detained, pending trial. Yes.

And what news do we have from him?

Nothing new. He denies the charges, but he hasn't mentioned the suitcase.

He's adamant

that the killer planted the cell phone in his car to incriminate him.

What matters here is not being involved in it,

that Jiménez doesn't implicate us

in the reservoir poisoning.

He won't, Paca.

He needs us to get out of there. That part is covered.

But there might be another issue.

-Ecorana. -[Paca] Mm.

What stage are they at?

Ready. They just need approval from the health authorities,

but this afternoon, an inspector is visiting them.

I've been researching the guy.

I don't know his weakness yet, but everyone has one.

What do you mean?

[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing]

I'll find a way to stop the co-op production.

I don't give a damn about what Miguel and the Molinas do.

Ah… After what happened,

I thought that you would prefer to see them fail.

Not to mention, they are your competition, Paca.

Do whatever you think is best, but keep me out of it.

And if you want to mess with Miguel, don't use me as an excuse.

[♪ music concludes]

It looks better on you than on me, honey.

-Do you think so? -I do.

Aw, I'm so excited about getting married in your dress, Mom.

Thanks a lot.

You'll be the most beautiful bride in the whole history of Manterana.

[inhales deeply, chuckles]

What's that face?

I don't know. It's a bit scary.

-[chuckles] -Right.

But I'm happy.

Yes, mixed feelings.

But you've already gone through this.

You know.

Right. But it was different with Antón. It was beautiful,

but not all of you were there. This time will be special.

That's true.

I'm so happy I'm able to be with you on the day.

-It'll be really special. -[laughs, kisses]

[Laura exhales]

[laughs]

[inhales deeply, huffs]

[Laura] It looks great on you.

-Really? -[Laura] Yes.

-It's perfect. -[Gracia exhales]

[both laugh]

[Laura laughing]

-Mom. -Mm?

[Gracia] I've been thinking.

[♪ reflective instrumental music playing]

Why don't you invite Paca to come with you?

After everything she's done to you? What will your father think?

No, no, no, no.

It's your day. Only you must be the center of attention.

There will be time to smooth things over. No.

Okay, but if you change your mind, I'll think it'll be fantastic.

Thank you.

[laughs]

-Hi, Mom. -[♪ music fading]

-How are you, honey? -And the food?

Don't worry, I ordered it from the sushi place you like in San Luis.

You fired the new girl.

She was a disaster.

She cooked worse than me, and that is something.

Besides, she was very sassy.

Mom, how many candidates have you seen these past months?

Mm… seven?

It's not my fault that the service sector is wrecked.

You might need to accept that you won't find someone like Pilar.

What, a housekeeper who doesn't have a killer for a husband?

Anyway, let's leave it at that.

What is that?

Did you go to the drugstore?

Yes. Yes, I needed things for the first-aid kit.

And this?

I had time to go shopping for you.

[chuckles]

The ones you chose from the web catalog.

Mm. Thank you so much, honey.

I know. Thanks for getting them.

I was thinking how amazing Laura will look in them

on the wedding day.

-[♪ nostalgic instrumental music playing] -[exhales]

I wish you could go hand in hand,

as a couple.

She can still ask you to go with her.

If she asks, I'll say no.

I have nothing to do there.

Let's set the table.

Our sushi will be here soon.

Come on.

[♪ music concludes]

-[Laura] Look at these beauties. -[Gracia chuckling]

[Laura] How's that?

-Very… -[Gracia sighs] Ah…

They're more pretty than comfortable. I should've ordered a bigger size.

That's not okay. I'll go change them.

I'll call right now and order a bigger size.

Thank you.

[Laura] You're welcome, my love.

[♪ somber instrumental music playing]

[knocking on door]

Miguel, you scared me.

Sorry, I didn't mean to.

You are…

What are you doing here?

The health inspector called. He can't come today,

he's busy until next week.

It's okay.

We've waited a long time, we can wait a bit longer.

No, no. Of course.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know. More time for your preparations.

Although, I can see that you have everything under control.

Yes. Thank you.

You could have called.

Yes. But I have to talk to Paloma too. We have some matters to sort out.

She's downstairs.

What?

Paloma. She's downstairs.

All right… Uh…

See you later. Bye.

-[footsteps receding] -[breathes deeply]

Mm… So good.

-[♪ music concludes] -Paca, the agency has sent another girl.

She's here.

Hopefully this one won't be totally useless.

[Esther chuckling]

Do you mind?

[Esther] Go. I'll clear the table.

-And don't bark at her. -Only if she doesn't give me reason to.

Aw, poor girl.

Hopefully she lasts longer than the others,

which shouldn't be too hard.

You know your mother, she's a character.

Mm… [laughs] Quite a character.

I thought having a partner would soften her,

-because of love. -[laughs]

But I can see that's not the case.

Now that you mention it, it'd be great if you came to El Acebuche more often

to see your mother.

But I come here for lunch once a week.

And we talk almost every day. Why would you say that?

Don't get me wrong, please. I'm just worried that…

I don't know, that if you're not here,

someone might try to take advantage of her.

[laughs] Someone? Who? It's just you and Laura left.

What is it, Tomás? What's the matter with Laura?

[Tomás] Well,

maybe it's just me, but…

[inhales sharply]

…no one else has the influence she has over her, not even you.

-[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing] -But that's understandable.

They are in love and they are happy, aren't they?

Mm.

[Esther] Have you seen anything odd?

What I see is that your mother changes completely when she's around.

I don't know what that woman does,

but when she's with her, I don't recognize Paca.

I don't know, it's like she's her puppet.

Really?

I'm just saying that,

seeing what Paca feels for her, we should watch out.

That's all.

Thank you.

-[Tano sighs] -[cell phone chiming]

Oh… hold on.

-[♪ music concludes] -Just a second. I'll be right back.

Honey, this is too much. Can't you take a break?

Not even to try on your groom's suit?

A mayor is a mayor, full time.

[sighs]

You are made for each other.

Gracia manages Las Sabinas,

-the co-op, the consultancy. -[Tano] Mm.

-Such a pair of workaholics. -What can I do?

Just slow down a little, honey.

You won't even make it to the honeymoon at this rate.

[huffs] Of course we'll make it.

We are waiting for summer. We'll have more time,

and we'll be free to make plans.

All right, done.

Enough with the chitchat.

Well, how do I look?

Stunning, honey.

Gracia will fall off her seat when she sees you, won't she?

Yes, you look great.

Thank you, Miguel. Thanks.

My goodness, I can't believe I'm marrying the love of my life.

[Silvia] You deserve it, honey.

[Tano] What I don't deserve is a mother like you.

Without your help, it wouldn't have been possible to organize the wedding.

[sobs] Don't be silly…

I'm glad to do it.

And what about your speech?

I warn you that I want the best speech in the history of weddings.

Count on it. It's almost finished.

[♪ soft instrumental music playing]

[Julia] Thank you for the belt, Tano. It's really cool.

And the jacket.

If I have to dress like an idiot, at least I'll look cool.

[laughs] Not a problem. Thanks for accepting me into the family.

You did us a favor.

Now we won't have to move again. We're sick of that.

Indeed. Leaving now would suck.

Everyone is getting along, now.

Well, I promise you I'll do all I can to help you stay.

Promise us one last thing, Tano.

That you'll always take care of our mom and love her very much.

Yes. We've never seen her so calm and so happy.

Make it last, okay?

That's a lot of responsibility.

But, yes. I'll try…

to make her as happy as she makes me. Promise.

Let's give them the presents.

-Let's go. -[Julia] Yes.

Emilio, breathe.

Okay. Again, slowly. Without getting dizzy.

[coughs]

Very good, Emilio.

You are still as strong as an oak.

Am I? Well… [laughs]

It's nice to come for a check-up and hear only good things.

Although, I must tell you that you have to slow down a bit.

-Stress is not good for anyone. -But I'm as cool as a cucumber…

I guess your daughter's wedding must have disrupted your routine a bit.

And, knowing you, I'm sure that you are out there working hard all day.

I'm not! I'm not allowed to do anything. Laura and my daughters are taking care

of everything, and they look at me suspiciously.

I'm only arranging the garden for the event.

Dad, you are doing more than that.

You help a lot just by getting out of the way.

[Esther laughing]

The last thing we need is another opinion.

Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Biting the hand that feeds them. Anyway…

I'll finish getting dressed to go home and do nothing.

[Esther] Very well.

Why have you come instead of Trini?

I thought you had the health inspector's visit today.

Mm. You said it, we "had" it.

Miguel came earlier to tell us that it was canceled.

The guy can't come until next week.

And Miguel went to Las Sabinas?

Yes. Yes, yes. To tell us in person.

Well, and we talked about other things too.

[♪ tense instrumental music playing]

-[footsteps approaching] -[♪ music concludes]

Is this the place where they never stop fighting crime?

Damn! I missed your silly jokes so much!

[both laugh]

Deep down, you love them.

Yes! [laughs] You look great, look at you.

[both laugh]

Truth is that this break worked wonders.

I'm glad. I'm glad.

Anyway, when do you think you'll return?

No pressure.

I thought about… next week, if it's fine by you.

Perhaps you could use some time to acclimatize?

No, please, don't leave me at my family's mercy.

-[laughs] -I'm excited to work.

But they must be so happy that you're back.

A bit too much, I'd say.

Don't be such a grouch! They've missed you, it's understandable.

Yes. And here?

Did you miss me?

Here? No way.

Everything went smoothly.

Nobody has questioned my authority for four months.

So boring.

Admit it.

-[laughs] -[laughs] Yes.

[both laugh]

Well, joking aside, to be pragmatic,

what do you think about returning after your cousin's wedding?

Mainly, to let you recover from the hangover.

-I mean, you are not a kid anymore. -[chuckles]

What's wrong? You don't want to go?

No, no, no, no. [laughs]

I'm looking forward to seeing them all.

And to celebrating. And I'm so glad for Tano.

But…

Álex.

[♪ wistful instrumental music playing]

I think about him a lot. I can't help it.

You don't have to, Manuela.

It was very hard, and it's still fresh.

It's not that I'm crying all the time or anything,

but the wedding is bringing back a lot of things.

I can't help but think about how my life would have been if…

Come here. Come. Come here.

Thank you for listening, Pablo.

I can't talk to my family about this.

They've suffered enough.

No. No, no, no.

You are the one who's suffered the most.

And I'm here for you whenever you need me.

You know that.

[laughing]

Aw, Manu…

ECORANA COOPERATIVE

[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing]

[exhales]

[♪ music concludes]

[Gracia] Hi.

Hi.

Right on time.

-You insisted it was important. -[Miguel] Mm.

But I'm not sure why you've asked me to come.

I wanted to read this to you.

What is it?

The speech I wrote for your wedding.

I wanted to know what you think.

Isn't it best to wait and hear it on the day?

Just listen.

Please.

[chuckles softly]

"Gracia and Tano…

"you asked me to give a speech on your wedding,

"and you've put me in a tight spot.

"I was unable to remember the last time I wrote something about love

"from my heart.

"Until I recalled Miss Isabel from high school,

"and the day she asked us to write a paper on a Lope de Vega sonnet.

"And I wrote… I remember it as if it were yesterday…

"I wrote that being in love is being everything

"and being nothing.

[♪ somber instrumental music playing]

[Miguel] "Everything when you are with her,

"and nothing when she's away.

"That, when you really love someone,

"your whole body aches.

"And that looking into her eyes,

"holding her hand and kissing her mouth…

"is the only thing that heals that pain.

"The only thing you can think about day and night."

[inhales]

I don't know what this is, but we are leaving it here.

I am not finished.

I don't care. I don't want to listen any more.

Right.

[sighs] This is not a speech, Miguel.

Right.

It's just the stupid words of a besotted teenager.

Of a naive and hopeless kid who thought he had found the love of his life.

Who thought there's just one person for everyone.

And that he was lucky enough to have found her when he was so young.

With his whole life ahead of him, Gracia.

His whole life to love her as he loved her back then,

as I love you right now.

[sighs] Don't do this.

I couldn't forget you.

Not when you left, nor when you came back and rejected me.

I love you so deeply, Gracia.

I'm in love with your eyes,

with your lips,

with your hands when you talk to me, with your voice when you say my name…

I hate you.

I hate you.

-I love you. -I hate you.

I love you.

[Gracia] I love you.

[♪ romantic instrumental music playing]

[Gracia panting]

No. No, no, no.

Stop! Stop, stop, stop, stop.

[pants] What are we doing?

[pants]

Not again. Not again.

-[Miguel] Gracia! -[Gracia] No, no, no.

[♪ music concludes]

[birds chirping]

[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing]

[♪ music concludes]

[Richi] These are the options.

Because these are the only ties I own.

[Paloma] Uh-huh.

You think they are awful, don't you?

I don't know which one I should burn first.

[both laugh]

Very well. Done deal. No tie. Done.

-Thank you. Really. -No problem.

We've sorted out the tie crisis,

-so I'm off to work. -Okay.

I'll see you later.

Bye, Trini!

[Trini] Bye!

Listen.

They weren't cheap. Besides, they are not that ugly.

[chuckles softly]

What's wrong? Why are you staring at me like that? What did I do?

Nothing bad, for once.

Mm.

I'm glad to see that you've settled down

with someone as mature and pretty as Paloma.

Yes. I don't believe it myself. [chuckles] I was such a disaster.

[inhales deeply, huffs] Mom, I like her a lot.

Honestly. I don't want to sound cheesy, but… [huffs] …I'm crazy about her.

You can tell.

Don't be ashamed of that.

Who knows? They say one wedding brings another, right?

Richi… slow down. Don't rush.

Some things need a little time to develop.

[Richi chuckles softly]

Guess what I'm baking.

Apple pie.

Yes! [laughs]

[engine stopping]

[Esther] Should I wear the long or short earrings? What do you think?

Honey, you've had your head in the clouds all morning.

Sorry. I can't stop thinking about work.

[Esther] Tomás!

-Good morning, lovebirds. -[Esther] Hi.

How are you, Miguel? How's the co-op going?

-Fine. -[Tomás] Mm?

Fine. Honey.

See you later?

-Mm. Bye. -[Miguel] Thank you.

[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing]

Hey, would you like to have a coffee?

I'd love to, but I'm late.

Tomás, I don't want to be nosy,

but I can see the relationship between you and Miguel hasn't improved at all.

It's a shame, yes. But I think it's more on his side than mine.

-[♪ music concludes] -I see.

I thought that things would improve

now that you aren't working together, but it seems it hasn't.

[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing]

What's going on? Has something else happened that I don't know of?

I guess that, although Jiménez is in prison,

he still thinks that Paca and I have something to do with what happened.

He thinks we are hiding something else.

Look who's talking…

[clicks tongue, laughs]

Why do you say that?

It's nothing. It's nothing…

That was silly. Ignore me. I'm…

I'm such a blabbermouth.

Tomás, what's going on?

Are you implying that Miguel is hiding something?

Look, I don't usually poke my nose into other people's business,

and I wanted to give him the chance to be honest, but he didn't tell you, huh?

Tell me what? Please, talk.

I went by the co-op yesterday and saw Miguel and Gracia coming out and…

Esther, I'm really sorry to tell you this,

but they seemed to have been…

Well… you know.

[♪ music intensifies]

[♪ music concludes]

-[Paloma] Mm. -This is better.

Yes, it is.

-Thanks, Mom. You saved me from torture. -[chuckles]

-Leave them on, they need breaking in. -Yes.

I'd like to wear them for the ceremony and then change into flip flops.

-Is that wrong? [laughs] -[laughs]

[Paloma] Unbelievable.

It's unbelievable. You are marrying Tano Larrea.

I know.

It's amazing. I'm still wrapping my mind around it too.

But, honey, true love needs no explanation.

You feel it and that's all.

-[♪ somber instrumental music playing] -Right. I agree, but the thing is that…

I've always thought that each person can only have one true love.

-[Laura] I see. -Just one.

And that was a burden when I was married to Antón.

We were very happy, but I felt…

I don't know, as if we were missing something.

-[Laura] Mm. -Tano, on the other hand,

made me realize that we evolve and the way we love changes.

And that there are people that we need to leave behind.

And other people just come up and you walk down the aisle together.

-[laughs] -The heart is wise. It regenerates.

I adored your father,

-and now I'm with Paca. -[chuckles]

What about you? Is Richi a candidate for true love?

Gosh…

[laughs] It looks like you two understand each other very well.

Step by step.

We are getting to know each other.

-[all laugh] -[hums]

[laughs]

[♪ music concludes]

[sighs]

[birds chirping]

[Lucía] Hi.

Hi.

[Lucía] What's that little box?

[sighs] It's a present. For Laura.

Is it her birthday?

[chuckles softly]

I bought them for her to wear at the wedding.

Let me see.

[gasps] They are beautiful!

You'll be the coolest couple.

Well, besides the bride and groom.

[both chuckle]

Did I say something wrong?

No, it's okay, honey, it's just that… [clicks tongue]

I'm not going to the wedding. I haven't been invited.

[Lucía] What?

But…

you are together, right?

The ancient feud between the Utreras and the Molinas

is still very alive.

No, I won't have it.

I won't sleep a wink tonight, I'm so nervous.

If this continues, on the 15th, the bags under my eyes will be huge.

You… don't look so good either.

-I don't? -[Tano] No.

Are you having trouble sleeping?

-Yes, I can't stop thinking about work. -[Tano] Mm.

Look who's coming. Hello, sister-in-law.

-Hey. -[Tano] How is it going?

Hi, baby.

Didn't you have home visits today?

Yes, but I had some free time and came for a coffee.

You can have mine if you want, I haven't touched it.

Thanks.

You worried me with that co-op thing you mentioned this morning, honey.

Would you like to tell me about it?

It's your brother.

You trust each other, right?

I guess it's the same thing you were telling me about earlier.

Didn't it go well with the health inspector?

Mm, it didn't go at all. He stood us up.

-[♪ tense instrumental music playing] -Gracia and you?

Yes. Yes.

We waited for him for 20 minutes and, in the end, he called

and said he wasn't coming. Very unprofessional.

Mm. Sounds like it.

Anyway, I'm off. I have lots of work at the co-op.

See you later, Tano. Bye, honey.

Esther.

-[♪ music concludes] -Um, is it me or…

Maybe it's because I didn't sleep well,

but you two are acting weird.

Weird? How?

Come on, we've known each other since we were kids.

You are scaring me.

I don't want to hurt you, Tano.

[Tano] Me?

Does it have to do with me?

If it does, I have the right to know, don't I?

Miguel has just lied to us.

He knew the appointment with the inspector had been canceled.

Okay. And… and why is he lying to us? Why?

To justify what happened at the co-op yesterday

between Gracia and him.

[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing]

Are you telling me…

How could he do that to me?

I left my mother for him.

And two days before your wedding.

No, it's not possible. There must be an explanation.

[♪ music concludes]

[footsteps approaching]

Hey, Gracia.

Hi.

[mutters]

Hey, have you got a minute?

Yes. Let me finish this list of songs first, please.

Mm, okay. Done.

Sorry. I want to have some control over the music played at my wedding.

Yes, sure, I think that's great.

Wedding DJs are usually the worst.

-I totally agree. [laughs] -Yes.

How can I help?

-The bouquet. -[Gracia] The bouquet?

The bridal bouquet?

[Richi] Yes. That one.

Um… I'm not sure if that's still a tradition,

but if you can throw it

so that it lands directly in Paloma's hands…

-[laughs] -[Richi] …discreetly…

All right. You're serious about her, aren't you? [laughs]

Yes. Yes, yes, yes.

Yes. I really like her a lot.

Mm. I don't know why I should pretend I don't.

I've never been with a woman like her, and I wouldn't mind…

taking "the big step."

Well… [laughs] …my aim isn't very good, but I'll do what I can.

[clicks tongue] Great. Thanks.

I'm going to work.

Gracia, play some trap, please. It's the best for twerking.

[laughs]

[♪ cheerful instrumental music playing]

[huffs]

[Emilio] Hi, honey.

Hi, Dad.

[♪ music concludes]

[grunts]

[muttering indistinctly]

Dad.

-[Emilio] Mm-hm? -I…

I know Tano and I talked about an informal wedding and, maybe,

it's even old-fashioned, but…

what if you walked me down the aisle?

We couldn't on my first wedding, and I thought that, maybe, now…

If you wanted to, of course.

[♪ gentle instrumental music playing]

It's not that I want to, honey…

It'd make me the happiest man on the planet.

[laughs]

[laughs]

Thank you.

[water running]

[♪ music concludes]

[whispers] Have I told you today that I love you?

Not now, Laura.

What?

Not now.

[laughs]

I just want everything to be okay.

Well, it's not. It's not okay.

And do you know why?

Because it's not balanced.

I'm still second fiddle in this relationship.

That's not true, Paca.

It's how I feel.

You are ashamed of me.

How can you think that?

What do you want me to think? It's been months,

and we are still hiding like we're criminals.

And I don't even want to talk about the wedding.

-I'm going to talk to Gracia. -[♪ soft instrumental music playing]

[Paca] What for?

I'll tell her that we'll go to the wedding together.

-Really? -Really.

I want to brag about my earrings and my girlfriend.

-[♪ music concludes] -[laughs]

[Gracia laughs] I played along because I didn't want him to feel bad.

This morning, I had the feeling that you weren't on the same page.

No, to be honest. And… [laughs] …after what you've just told me

about the bouquet… It seems quite childish to me.

[laughs]

Enough to think twice about everything…

[Gracia] Really?

I'm comfortable with him.

I have fun, I laugh, but from there to a serious relationship…

I don't… I don't see it.

Well, he does, Paloma.

-[huffs] -[Gracia] He sees it.

What I see is an uncomfortable chat with him.

The best I can do is to throw the bouquet as far from you as possible.

-Yes, please, to the other end, Gracia. -[Gracia laughing]

[cell phone ringing]

It's Mom.

Mom?

Yes, tell me. I'm here with Paloma.

Right. I see.

Sure.

No, no, Mom. I said it was your decision, and I haven't changed my mind.

Don't worry. We'll add one more place setting.

Mom, I'm sure.

Okay.

Yes. No problem. Big kiss.

Bye, bye, bye.

Tell me it's not what I think it is.

-[♪ reflective instrumental music playing] -Paca is coming to my wedding.

Jesus, Gracia!

[huffs]

What was I supposed to do? It's for Mom.

But it's going to be hell for Dad.

-[Gracia] I know. -It's…

I know.

My turn to have an uncomfortable chat.

Mm.

[Tano] Good afternoon.

-[Paloma] Hi. -[Tano] How are you?

-[Paloma laughs] -[Gracia] Hi.

Do you have the list of songs?

I won't leave it in your hands.

I'm sorry, it's an amazing list.

Okay, great, but I'll choose the dance song, the…

Bride and groom freaking out and arguing.

-I'm off. -[Tano] What's the matter?

-Are you allergic? -[Paloma] Bye.

Go away, go away.

-[laughs] -[Tano] How is it going?

All good.

[Tano huffs]

Don't you trust me?

Of course I trust you.

[laughs]

How did it go with the inspector? You didn't tell me anything about it.

He didn't come.

I see.

What happened?

I don't know. I was waiting at the co-op with Miguel,

and he called to cancel. He'll come by next week.

[♪ tense instrumental music playing]

[Gracia] Everything all right?

Yes, fine.

Except that…

we can't get married.

[♪ music concludes]

What?

You've cheated on me.

You've lied to me.

-With my own brother! -[♪ tense instrumental music playing]

I will never forgive you.

You hear me? Never!

Are you all right, honey?

Huh?

Yes. It's just that I can't sleep lately, I don't know why.
