Nails (2025) s01e05 Episode Script

1
Hey, I'm not
Shit!
Yeah, man, I
They let you bring dogs into
the shelter now.
And now you don't have to sleep
with Canela in the park.
Fucking hell.
Sure, man.
Ay, ay.
Ay.
Ay.
Well, well, well.
But, what is this?
Things to restore.
-You’re gonna restore this?
-No, I’m gonna wash it.
You have to stop picking up trash.
It's not trash,
it's useful stuff.
The planet needs us to recycle.
Oh my God, are you crazy?
I'll gonna call your daughter
right now.
Don't get her involved in our stuff,
okay?
Bertina, your mother
is out of control.
Yeah, I'll send you a video
so you can see.
how she's got all this junk from
the street.
Yes, yes, yes,
she picked up more trash.
You have to come talk to her.
Sir, this thing
which pile do I put it in?
How should I know?
No, no, it's just that she's
completely useless.
She can't do anything right.
All curves and no substance.
Nature is always unbalanced.
Well, tell that to your mommy.
She held a casting call
just to screw me over.
Hey, since you're getting along now
with the kids,
you could come back to work with me.
Oh, Tiago,
I didn't want to tell you,
but Alex kicked me
at the school door.
What?
And all those gossipy moms
were there watching and saying
that it was my fault for leaving him
with Guada when he was little.
And the worst part is that
they're right.
Damn Alex.
So, don't even dream
about me going back to work with
you.
I mean, I need my kids to love me.
My love, what if you went to
the Course for Perfect Mothers?
I know my mother gave it to you
and you can't stand her, but
If you open your mouth
and say anything to your mom,
I'll cut your balls off.
Both of them.
But I already called
and I'm gonna try.
Great!
Giving in isn't losing, it's taking
a step towards understanding.
If you open your mouth,
I'll tear you to pieces.
and I'll put you
in the trunk of my car.
What's your obsession with
the trunk?
Hey, you'll have to give me a prize
for keeping your secret, eh?
I'm going to school.
You're not going to school.
She was washing in the river,
washing in the river.
She washed in the river
and she carried a brush.
She washed in the river,
she washed in the river.
She washed in the river,
and threw away the brush.
I washed in the river,
I washed in the river.
What are you doing?
Huh? I'm scrubbing.
It gets the grime off
the joints better.
Mom, you know there's something
called a mop, right?
Yes, yes, I know.
But an old-fashioned housewife
destroys her knees scrubbing.
I didn't say you were
an old-fashioned housewife.
But you think so.
You're really gonna carry on about
this, aren't you?
If you don't think so, say so.
Say you're happy with my decision.
Say it.
Come on, honey, you're the one
who has to be happy, not me.
He's just incapable of saying it.
Okay, enough. I'm going to work.
The therapy isn't helping at all.
-We should stop.
-Over my dead body!
In this house we finish
the therapy we started.
Did you throw the brush at us?
No, no, it just slipped out of
my hand.
Can you pass it to me, please?
You're crazy!
What a temper!
If you keep looking at me like that
I'm gonna lose my boner again.
If you want, I'll close my eyes.
Okay.
I was kidding!
Okay, I'll close them.
Wait, wait, I'm almost there!
Sorry, sweetie.
Richi, man!
I'm expecting something important.
Damn, I thought the most important
thing in your life was me.
Ouch.
What’s this?
A vertical iron?
It's another campaign, sweetie,
for 3,000 euros.
I'm gonna make a fortune!
Are we going to get rich?
Honey, in this house everything
belongs to both of us.
Sure, sure, sure.
But why do they ask you
to advertise these things?
I have no idea.
Oh, maybe it's because you have
a lot of female fans.
Jealous again?
We should follow each other on
social media, I'm getting miffed
Wait, wait.
Sweetie, sit down.
It's just that
It's just that if we start breaking
our agreements,
this is going to go to hell.
Because you
and I are different, aren't we?
Yeah.
I've always liked you
because you're confident.
Don't end up like those bitches
who spy on their boyfriends.
Okay, okay, okay.
Our love is above our paranoia.
Yes, honey. Forgive me,
I'm being silly, you're right.
-I'm crazy about you.
-And I'm crazy about you.
Sweetheart, I’m crazy.
-I'm crazy.
-Me too.
I'm crazy.
I'm crazy.
-I'm crazy. I'm crazy.
-Me too.
PERFECT MOTHERS COURSE
That's why you shouldn't ask
yourselves
how to be perfect mothers,
but how to accept that you aren’t.
Is it going to be like this all
the time?
Because this idiot hasn't said
one thing that’s useful.
Do you have any questions, Marilis?
Oh, no. It's just
that I'm in a bit of a hurry.
and I feel like we're not making
any progress, Olga.
Being in a hurry
and motherhood don't mix.
If we want to have
a better relationship
with our children,
they should be our priority.
No, they are, that's why I'm here.
But I also have things to do.
Okay, let's continue with
the agenda.
so Marilis doesn't get antsy.
The first thing to work on in
the bond is to give some leeway
to our children
in their daily routines.
In other words, don't stress them
out by insisting
they follow them to the letter.
Let's show them
that we are flexible mothers.
Allow your child to express
their feelings
and validate their feelings.
We can do this by drawing together
basic emotions such as anger
and sadness.
Would you like to share something,
Marilis?
It's just that, how are my children
going to draw something
when they don't even know
what the hell it is?
Forgive me,
but we've been here for three hours
and you haven't said anything
useful.
Maybe you don't have
the right attitude.
Or maybe you don't know
how to communicate it well.
Because she hasn't stopped yawning.
The other one is on her cell phone
and she's been to the bathroom
three times.
Either she's a cokehead or she's
just as bored as everyone else.
I won't let you question
my professionalism.
If you're not comfortable,
you're free to leave.
Oh, I'll leave all right,
this stupid fucking course.
Well, good luck, ladies, eh?
Are you bored too?
No, no, don't worry.
May I?
Ah, very good.
I'm glad you're back.
Have a seat.
Ah.
Let me know how much it is.
Very good! Very good!
Oh, sorry, ladies, for being late.
But I just got a massage.
Oh, delicious!
You should go, huh?
A massage at this hour?
Who took the kids to school?
-Tiago.
-Weren't you fighting
with your mother-in-law about taking
them?
Oh, ladies, I have to confess
something really embarrassing.
I've realized
that I can't stand my kids.
I just don't like them, man.
I've done everything I can
to get along with them.
I even went to
the perfect moms class,
but I thought it was stupid.
And I went to get a massage.
I'm a shitty mother, right?
Marilis, don't beat yourself up.
If you go from never being with them
to being with them every day
it's normal that it's hard for you.
-Really?
-Of course, woman.
There are days when I could kill
my daughter.
Just because you gave birth to them
doesn't mean you have to like them.
Convince your mother-in-law to leave
you alone
and pretend you're going to class.
That way you'll buy some time
and little by little
getting to know the kids.
Oh, that's a great idea.
Awesome, awesome.
It's just that sometimes
we commit ourselves to things
that we're not capable
of following through on.
That doesn't mean we're betraying
those we love.
It's just that being loyal to
that commitment
makes us very anxious,
feel terrible, and devour
-whatever we can get our hands on.
-What are you talking about?
Richi is cheating on me
and I'm going to gain 15 kilos
if this keeps up.
But are you sure about that?
He says I'm paranoid, but
he's hiding something from me.
-I know him.
-What are you waiting for?
For the Virgin of Guadalupe
to visit you or what?
-Check his phone!
-Ah, no, no, no.
Don't pay any attention to her.
Learn from my mistake,
that damn surprise party.
But she'll have to do something.
Living like that is unbearable.
And you can't keep eating.
Why? Do you think I'm fatter?
What did she say?
We need to order nail polish
remover.
She has to learn Spanish.
What did she say?
She says she's going
to sign up for classes.
Very good.
Hello, family.
Ursula, now it's me who
has a little surprise for you.
Oh, really?
I went to the class you gave me
as a gift.
Really?
And how did it go?
Great, thanks.
The truth is that it helped me
a lot.
Of course, woman.
There's nothing better than
admitting our limitations.
if you're not a good mother,
it's okay.
You learn to be and that's it.
Well, I am a good mother.
I just have to fix a few things.
The important thing is that
you went.
-But didn't you tell me that?
-Could you take them to school?
The class starts really early.
Yes, take us, Dad.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!
See what I mean?
They have no bond with you.
Will you help me bathe them too?
Sure, my love.
I'll finish this episode of Cat
Patrol and then I'll be right there.
Really?
Ah, let it go, let it go, let it go.
Don't let your movements
be predictable, Veronica.
Looser. We're not dancing, Inigo.
No, let go, let go.
Oh, the sound.
More, more.
There, there.
Yes, yes, yes, but really.
From the center, from the center.
Anger, stop.
I can't believe I'm doing this.
Veronica, don't laugh.
You're spoiling the mood.
I'm sorry, but my father looks
more constipated than angry.
He's just emotionally constipated.
Interesting. Let's explore that.
No, let’s not go there.
He's embarrassed by my decision.
That's not true. But if it were,
I embarrass you too.
Don't you remember
when you told your friends
as if it were a crime
that I dye my gray hair?
Really?
Dad, that's tacky.
-Right?
-Doctor, can we stop this?
This doesn't make any sense anymore.
If anyone here decides what makes
sense and what doesn't, it's me.
Continue with the exercise.
Are we going to let her talk to us
like that?
I'm a housewife, all I know how to
do is iron and cook.
Don't look at me.
Notice how, when interpreting
the emotion of anger,
you end up getting angry
with each other for real.
and venting some of the issues
you have stored up inside.
-And is that a good thing?
-Great.
Great.
It involves communication
and honesty,
two basic pillars of the family.
Do you really dye your hair, Dad?
-Wow!
-Veronica.
But didn't you tell me
not to say anything
to her about the course?
Yes, but I realized it's not worth
fighting with her.
Well, I think you should stand up
for yourself
as a mother and tell her that you're
not going to keep going.
But, didn't you want me to go?
Yeah, yeah, but I think she gave it
to you to bother you.
Maybe you're right, and my mom
can't stand you.
Don't be so cynical.
She loves me a lot, doesn't she?
Well, I don't know.
Good night, my love.
Good night.
Shit.
Well, if there's no war,
I'm not fucking.
Daddy, what's fuck?
No, no, no, no.
I said duck. Ducking.
Come on, honey, time for bed.
You're acting strange.
Well, yes, it's because
of the Cat Patrol.
I wish I had seen another episode.
We'll watch it together tomorrow,
Daddy.
All right, sweetheart.
I love you very much.
And I love you more.
Come on, time for bed.
Did you enjoy the workout?
Yes, a lot, but I've used up my
transport pass
and I'm not coming back.
-Your house is just too far.
-Oh, right.
I love you, girls,
thanks for helping me today.
You're a traitor, Vanesa Gutiérrez.
Richi, honey,
I keep getting your voice mail.
I'm going to see you at the bar,
honey.
I miss you so much,
and I can't eat like this.
See you there in a little while.
I love you.
-Is the soup good?
-Very.
Rosario is a good cook, isn't she?
What are you doing?
I was watching the news.
-What's this?
-Read it.
Acknowledgment of debt
Mr. Arturo Venegas Bóveda
for Mrs. Irene Sánchez Miranda.
What?
Irene, what is this?
A debt acknowledgment.
I want you to pay me what
you owe me.
But what do I owe you, Irene?
My salary for all these years.
-150,000 euros.
-What?
And I've given you a discount,
which my lawyer didn't want to do.
but I don't like being like Xiaomi.
-Like who?
-Should I bring you the flan?
No.
Who is it?
No, Mom.
The trash thing isn't normal.
You have Diogenes Syndrome.
Come on, you guys love to
exaggerate.
And the worst thing is
the acknowledgment of debt.
It's those friends at the nail salon
who brainwashed you.
-No, it was Lorena.
-Who's Lorena?
What do I know?
Come on, Mom.
Mom, honey, listen to me.
Are you taking your medication?
Mom.
-Mom?
-No, I stopped.
I don't want to live numb.
I want to be happy.
And on and on about being happy.
That doesn't exist, Irene.
But you can't stop taking
it just like that!
It could cause anxiety,
depression, hallucinations.
Of course, that explains everything.
The debt is a hallucination.
I don't have Diogenes Syndrome,
nor am I hallucinating.
This is the new Irene.
So get used to it.
I'm not sleeping with your mother
tonight. I'm going to your house.
Dad, you can't run away
every time you argue with her.
Besides, she's not well.
-Should I bring you the flan now?
-No!
Mamma mía.
-Huh?
-You scared me!
Son of a bitch!
Hey, what's up, guys?
Today my girlfriend made me a cake
with cookies and custard.
It was fucking awesome.
She says she feels fulfilled
taking care of me and cooking.
I mean, that's weird.
But if she's happy
Just like your mother.
What's gotten into them?
-Bye!
-I don't know.
I watch him because he’s hot.
They were washing by the river,
washing by the river.
They were washing by the river,
they had a brush.
-What is she singing?
-Copla.
What's that?
A musical genre that
Never mind, you wouldn't understand.
Lina, we're watching videos.
Okay.
And me folding clothes and singing.
Mom, this is getting
really pathetic.
What's pathetic, honey?
What, folding clothes like an old
housewife or singing folk songs?
Everything.
Can you behave like adults?
It's her!
Say you like me being a woman.
like the old ones
and stop acting like a jerk
-Yes.
-Yes, what?
What you just said.
It's just that it's incredible.
No, what's really incredible is
all of this.
I grew up in daycare centers.
We never went together
on vacation for more
than three days.
You haven't bothered to find out
who my friends were until now.
But at least you didn't argue.
I always thought you were
a happy couple.
and I'm just asking you not to take
that away from me.
Either you make up right now
or I'm flunking the whole quarter.
-You start.
-No, you go first.
Please.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Maybe I pushed you a little too hard
to hear you say
what I wanted to hear.
I feel the same way.
I should have said yes.
and accepted your decision
and not been so stubborn.
See how easy it is?
Come on, I'll show you another video
of the hot guy.
They were washing by the river,
she had a brush.
-Really?
-Sorry, sorry.
Wake up, you son of a bitch!
What happened?
I almost had a heart attack.
Oh, honey, sorry, I dropped a plate.
How was work last night?
Fine, but I was waiting for you.
I heard your message saying
you were coming.
Yeah, love.
I was feeling lazy and ended up
watching a show.
That's a shame, I wanted to
introduce you to my friends.
Yes, it's true, what a shame.
I'm gonna take a shower
and do the ironing.
Okay, honey.
Do you want to take a shower
with me?
I can't.
I have to go shopping.
we're out of kiwis.
I don't know what it is about them
Hey, it must be the fiber.
See you later.
I'll catch you, you bastard.
You haven't told me how you're doing
in school.
Great. To be honest,
I'm learning a lot.
I'm glad.
Hey, we could do something with
the whole family on Sunday, right?
Oh, I can't.
I'm going to the salon with
my friends.
On Sunday?
But, isn't it closed?
Yes, but they're meetings to discuss
how we feel about the decision
we made.
Yeah, my mom already told me
you wouldn't want
to do anything with her.
-She said that?
-Yes, yes. I promise.
I'm telling you, she hates you.
In the end, you've opened my eyes.
Bitch!
That’s right.
But you know what? I forgive her.
No, don't forgive her.
-What?
-I mean, don’t back down.
Tell her to mind her own business.
Besides, I support you.
and that way we'll be a team,
just like you said.
-You want us to get along badly?
-Me?
By the way, what was I going to say
I could come to one
of your meetings sometime
-to give a motivational talk.
-No.
-Why not?
-Because we're all women.
You wouldn’t fit in there.
But if women are fighting
for equality,
it doesn't make sense to leave
us men out.
True empowerment shouldn’t
separate us
because we shouldn’t be a threat
to you women.
-What a bore.
-What?
Take the kids to school,
I'm going to class.
So early again?
It's a special seminar
about parents' empathy
with children's tantrums.
Right.
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
-How was your night?
-Fine.
-Have you thought about it?
-I don't need to think about it.
-I want my money.
-Come on!
I'm going to make you an appointment
with a psychiatrist.
I'm not going.
-I'm not paying it either.
-Fine.
Then I'll go with plan B.
What plan B? Huh?
What plan B, Irene? What plan B?
-Would you like?
-No, no, I don’t want any flan!
I was going to ask you about
the coffee.
Ah, yes, yes.
Excuse me, yes, Rosario.
Thank you very much.
DIPLOMA MR. EUGENIO DIAZ
RUBIO. BALLISTICS COURSE
PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECURITY
MEASURES COURSE
Sorry, I haven't had breakfast.
Do you mind?
No, no. I'm hardly one
fit to scold you.
You want to know if your boyfriend
is cheating on you.
I don't want to, but I need to know.
Most of the time when you suspect
something, it's because it's true.
-Eh Don't fuck with me.
-Well, yes.
85% of the cases of infidelity
I investigate are true.
Ah. Well, that's just great,
isn't it?
Come on, show me a photo
of your boyfriend.
He's cheating on you for sure.
-Excuse me?
-He's handsome.
He can't be faithful.
Especially if he works at night.
I'm getting stressed out here.
And I haven't even shown you
the photos of him messing around.
Okay. I'm going to ask you not
to talk to me like that, please,
or else look what happens.
As long as he doesn't give you
a venereal disease,
what does it matter
if he has fun out there?
You should do the same thing.
This isn’t helping me at all.
Instead of paying me
why don’t you just look at his phone
like everyone else does?
We have a pact not to invade
each other's privacy.
We don't look at each other's phones
and we don't follow each other
on social media.
Right. So why did you hire
a detective?
Follow him isn't an invasion
of privacy?
No, because you're not going
to follow him,
but rather the bitch
who's screwing him.
And does that subterfuge work
for you?
I don't know what it is, but it
works for me. OK, go ahead.
I don't understand a thing.
I'll explain it clearly.
I have a boyfriend who is
way out of my league.
who is really hot and fucks me
like a queen.
I can't show him that I'm jealous.
Or he’ll fall out of love with me
for being so annoying.
So I need you to tell me if
what I suspect is true or not.
Because if it's true, I can't just sit
around doing nothing
while he falls in love with someone
else. Do you understand?
Crystal clear.
Who's the girl?
Take notes.
-She's his coworker.
-Oh.
Let me tell you.
Oh.
Just a second
I see in you
No, no, please, Veronica,
don't laugh.
This is hard enough for me, please.
Okay, Iñigo, continue.
Tell her that you see immaturity
and a lack of commitment to family.
Come on, it's not that bad, is it?
The thing is, the exercise is lame.
It's stupid, like everything we do.
-Honey.
-No, I'm right.
You argue more since
we've been in therapy
than you have in your entire life.
That’s true.
Very good.
Two adults letting themselves
be manipulated by a teenager.
Et voilà.
Here's a summary of why
your family is in crisis.
Look, I'm a little tired of the tone
you use with us.
I talk to you like that
because you're spoiled
and used to getting your way.
It's part of the therapy.
You know what I say?
My daughter is right.
This therapy is crap, and we're
not gonna continue with it.
What a shame. Your ship is sinking.
and you don't have a captain
to save it.
No, it's not sinking.
In fact, it's a battleship that can
withstand rough seas
waves, tornadoes, and tempests.
What it can't withstand
are irritating stowaways.
So please, when you can,
get out of our house.
Very well.
I'll send you the bill.
With the VAT.
Honey,
I loved the marine metaphor.
-I know, right?
-A movie and popcorn?
A movie and popcorn.
Please.
150,000 euros!
Is that a lot?
Congratulations, Irene.
That's what I call having guts.
Maybe I'm going too far.
I hired a detective to follow Richi.
Way to go, girl!
In cases like this, you have to spy,
right?
No, I considered myself modern
and feminist,
and here I am doing things
from the 18th century.
Are you sure he's cheating on you?
Yesterday I went to see him at the
bar and he was flirting with this
coworker of his at the bar.
Sometimes things aren't what
they seem.
Sometimes they're worse.
Vanesa, I'm not going to be the one
to give you relationship advice.
because I've got enough
problems at home.
But I don't like the detective idea.
Me neither.
You should talk to him.
Tell him you feel bad,
that you need him to reassure you
and tell him to tell you
what he's hiding from you.
I still think you should check
his phone.
Oh, she doesn’t want to.
Oh, girls, come on, okay.
You're right, I'll call
the detective.
and tell him not to do anything yet.
-Let's see.
-I hate seeing my friend like this.
We have to do something.
Yes, that's why we started the club,
isn't it?
It's crystal clear
that we have to go.
on a mission to Richie's bar
tonight.
And I can take off my apron for
a while I’m at it.
Just what I needed,
I’ll get kicked out of my house.
The two things I like doing most:
spying and dancing.
Hi, is this the Free Women's Club?
That's right.
We need your help.
This is spinning out of control.
