Nails (2025) s01e06 Episode Script

Episode 6

1
My God, we look like
the grandmothers of these kids.
Irene, don't get me down now.
Poor thing! Stick your fingers in
her mouth so she throws it all up,
she'll feel better.
These kids are pathetic,
they don't know how to drink.
Ah, I love this song!
-The air isn't clean in here.
-It smells like chives.
That's Richie.
That must be his damn lover.
We still don't know
if they're together.
It sure looks like it.
Hey, what if he recognizes us?
Maybe Vanessa showed him
a picture of us.
He won't,
he only has a brain
for serving shots.
No, Irene's right.
-Turn around.
-Okay.
But we'll attract more attention
that way.
Hi, are you going to order a drink?
Do you have green tea?
No, man, three tequilas.
And a good one,
because I'm Mexican
and I can tell the difference.
-I don't drink.
-Today you do.
Yay!
What did you say this was?
Agave!
From the Algarve?
Awesome!
Long live Portugal, girls!
Agave!
Hey, we're not exactly
keeping a low profile here.
He's looking at me.
Well, let's go now.
After all,
we already know that bastard
is involved with the pretty one.
Or maybe not.
Hey, hold on to the bollard,
it’s moving.
Shut up and throw up,
I want to go home, Irene.
Okay, okay.
I'll throw it all up.
Tomorrow you'll be as good as new.
The good thing about tequila
is that you don't get a hangover.
Oh, I feel awful.
Oh, I feel awful.
Would you like me to make you
another one?
No, it was a miracle
I could eat this one.
Good morning, Irene.
-What's Dr. Elías doing here?
-Since you don't feel like going,
I asked him to make a house call.
Irene, you look really terrible.
A hangover. From tequila.
-Rosario, shut up.
-You drank?
You see, doctor?
She's not herself.
Well, well
And you should see the trash
she brought off the street.
It's not trash.
There were some cute shoes
for Rosario.
-Two sizes too small.
-But they were like new.
They were cute, though.
Come on, Irene
Arturo told me that
you've stopped taking your pills.
That can't be.
It's very dangerous.
A letter from the courts
for the gentleman.
-For me?
-Yes.
That's a fine.
I keep getting those.
Impossible.
40 years driving and
I’ve never been fined.
I can't believe it!
What's going on?
-She sued me.
-I told you
I had a Plan B.
I want you to pay me
what you owe me.
Do something, doctor.
And what do you want me to do?
I'm not a lawyer.
Well, I don't know,
give her a shot of something.
Listen to me for a minute.
I've got two years left before
retirement
and I don't want any trouble, okay?
-Shall I see you out?
-Yes, please.
-Ah!
-Ouch!
-Ouch, ouch, ouch!
-Arturo?
Arturo, what's wrong?
-Are you okay?
-It's the stress.
Blood pressure.
Rosario,
the blood pressure monitor!
Yes. That's it.
Now pretend you care about me.
-I do care about you.
-Then withdraw the lawsuit.
Never.
Our relationship is based
on honesty, dear.
Then let's both be honest.
-I can't wait any longer
-Good morning, sweetheart!
Good morning, love!
How was yesterday? You got
home really late, didn't you?
It was just one of those nights
There were three older women
there causing a huge scene.
They got wasted, on tequila.
Ugh
Richie, I need you to be honest
with me.
If you're involved with
your coworker, I'd rather know.
Again?
I'm not involved with anyone.
Honey, I didn't tell you,
but that day
when I was gonna go see you, I did.
And when I got there,
you were clearly with her
and I left.
And you left without saying
anything to me?
Look, this girl here
is María, my coworker.
And this is Nuria, her girlfriend.
Ah
-Ah
-Ah
-What is
-Yes, Vane, she's a lesbian.
Oh, my God!
Oops, sorry, sorry, honey,
I messed up.
No, I told you not to go there.
My God, Lina,
what did you drink last night?
-You smell like an Irish pub.
-Well
More like a Mexican cantina.
Damn!
Where are you going?
To work. I'm closing
a very big deal today.
Organic fertilizer in South Africa,
tons.
Uh Do you remember
how horny we used to get
after a night out?
Eh Yes.
Well, I'm hung over today.
Lina, I can’t.
Just a quick one, in and out.
Honey, it's a big deal,
lots of money.
Yes, with South Africa,
you already told me.
I'm sorry, honey, I can't.
I have to go, I can't.
Hey, you weren't such a bore before,
were you?
Before, I didn't have to make twice
as much money
because we both worked,
remember?
Oh!
You got home really late yesterday,
didn't you?
She was talking to you, honey.
Oh, yes,
I went out with my friends.
-The kids asked about you.
-Not me.
Me neither.
Oh, how they are
They pretend not to care.
The truth is that arriving at 04:38
when you have to get up early,
I just don’t
Don't supervise me, man.
Am I awake
-or am I awake?
-Yes, yes, but
Come on, you have to take
the kids to school.
I'm going to class,
it's interesting.
Oh, really?
What are you going to learn today?
The umbilical cord
and stem cells.
But they also teach you biology?
Everything that has to do
with motherhood.
Come on, enough already.
-Stop interrogating me.
-Well, at least
pick them up after school,
because between one thing
and another
Yes, Ursula, I'll pick them up
after school.
I could give a talk in your class.
Always wanting to be
the center of attention.
What did she say?
I don't know.
Are you thinking
the same thing I am?
Yes.
What an ass she has.
No, that wasn't it.
God, what a hangover.
And she said tequila
doesn't make you feel sick.
Well, I'm as good as new,
look at me.
-Hello!
-Oh, Vanessa
-Good morning.
-We have some great news.
Richie isn't cheating on you
with the waitress.
Yesterday we went to spy on him
at the bar.
-and the girl has a girlfriend.
-Of course.
They were kissing.
Were you the older women
making a scene there?
What do you mean, older?
Damn, you could have told me that
before.
I talked to Richie
and he's pissed off
We wanted to tell you,
but we were drunk
and couldn't talk.
Very Irene threw up.
-You want a kitchen robot, right?
-Yes.
Buy robot from Vanesa's boyfriend
and he'll be happy again.
Xiaomi, thank you,
but Richie doesn't sell them,
he advertises them.
And money can't fix everything.
You're very money-minded, Xiaomi.
Um What are you doing here?
-I'm here to talk to your friends.
-Arturo, I'm begging you.
My wife isn't well.
She's been hoarding trash
at home for weeks
and she stopped seeing
her psychiatrist.
Eh sorry, what treatment?
You haven't told her?
She has depression.
She's been taking pills for years
and can't just stop
-just like that.
-Arturo!
This place is sacred to me.
Leave, please.
And she sued me.
We know that.
We’re with her on that.
-I knew it was you women.
-Arturo!
Go away.
If you really are her friends,
help her.
Relax.
-There you go.
-No, I'm fine.
I'm fine.
It's not depression, it's dysthymia.
Irene, please, you don't have to act
strong around us.
Why are you picking up trash,
honey?
I don't know.
I used to take care of
my granddaughter, dress up,
did the housework, but
But with our rebellion,
my routines have disappeared.
There are days when
I think I'm useless.
So I've started picking things up.
But you're very useful here.
We're helping a lot of women.
Yes, but that doesn't take
much time.
The rest of the day
Five women called today
for the club.
Did you write down the numbers?
No, club is only on Sundays.
-For God's sake, Xiaomi.
-Irene,
you need to find yourself a hobby.
What did you like to do
before you married Arturo?
Did you study or work?
I was studying. English translation.
I loved it.
Well, there you have your "ikigai."
-"Iki" what?
-Your purpose in life, Irene.
Go back to school.
But, Mom,
how many kiwis have you eaten?
Son, they're really good
and they're very healthy.
Well, you sure won't
be constipated
They're already asleep.
They gave me some great tips
in the course
to get them to fall asleep quickly.
What a great gift I gave you.
You're right, Úrsula,
thank you very much.
When does the course end?
Because I take them to school
every day.
Uh, no, my love,
there's a lot more to go.
-I'm going to do the next module.
-Liar!
Excuse me?
I called the course and they told me
that you only went on the first day.
-and that you ran away from there
like a bat out of hell.
But Marilis
Why?
I mean, spying on people
is the lowest thing there is.
I didn’t spy on you.
I called to make the last payment
and they told me.
You only make one payment,
you meddler!
-You're a liar.
-No, you're a meddler.
-Liar! Liar!
-Meddler!
-Calm down!
-Shut up!
I want you out of my house,
Ursula.
I'm sorry, honey,
but apart from the fact
that this house is mine,
I'm not leaving here
until I see that my son
and my grandchildren
are in good hands
and, for now,
I'm not convinced.
Aren't you going to say something?
Come on, say something.
Mom, you've gone too far.
You can't keep spying on
Marilis like she was a little girl.
And besides, she's right.
I think
it's time for you to go home.
Well, to your other home.
You mean your wife is
getting off the hook?
She shirks her responsibilities
and you throw me out?
I didn't expect this from you, son.
-Mom, try to understand me.
-No.
I don't understand you.
I'm going to my room.
And start packing your bags.
Don't leave a bracelet
or something there.
Damn bitch.
Poor thing.
Fuck her.
Hey, why don't we go to bed
and screw?
Maybe we'll get over it.
Thiago, get serious.
I'm going to watch a show
to see if I can calm down.
Hey, I'm also really offended.
You lied to me.
If I beat you off, will that help?
What?
A handjob?
Ah, yes, yes, yes.
I don’t hold grudges.
Come on!
-I can't do it anymore.
-Yes, you can, come on. One more.
Honey, what are you doing here?
-And you?
-It's not what it looks like.
What is it then?
Because it seems like it is.
You wanted to be like
your grandmother
and now you’re working
on the sly.
Hi, I'm Monica. I won’t give you
two kisses because I'm all sweaty.
-Should I stop?
-No.
It's because I'm anxious.
My nutritionist recommended it.
Calling me a liar, and you,
oh, come on, giving classes here.
-It's not that simple, love.
-That's enough, sweetheart.
That's enough.
Oh, your boyfriend is hot.
Do you mind if I call him if
he leaves you?
He’s not gonna leave me.
Push-ups.
Plank for five minutes.
Come on.
-This one is really cool.
-Let me see
-That's a piece of crap.
-But it's cool, it's kind of vintage.
Yeah, but it doesn't have
a steamer, the other one did.
It was more complete.
Make up your mind, Mom,
it's just a fucking food processor.
Shit, watch your language!
Look, I'm going to check out the one
that Vanessa's boyfriend advertises.
Let's see
Here he is. Richie.
But that's the guy I told you about.
The one who talks about
his girlfriend,
who's a housewife like you.
He's been ripping on her
on social media.
No way.
It doesn't have a steamer either?
What the hell is this?
Come on, I'll buy the old one,
the vintage one.
That's really cool.
What? Go ahead, shoot.
No, I was just thinking
Why did my wife lie to me
about the course?
Oh, because it was unbearable.
Because the teacher was a boring
goody-goody
-who just spouted nonsense.
-My love,
haven't you thought that
maybe your decision
to devote yourself to the children
isn't turning out the way
you wanted?
Don't tell me
Well, maybe you have to admit
that being a mother 24 hours a day
is too much for you
and that you were happier before,
when you worked for me.
Don't talk to me like
a public speaker
or I'll tell you to fuck off.
No, I'm just saying that maybe
it's time
for us to go back to like before.
We can hire
a babysitter and you could come back
to work with me again.
-We weren't doing so badly.
-Oh, yes, you
Because you were always the star
and because giving talks is fun,
but I always got stuck with all
the boring stuff.
Plus, I had to put up with
your mistrust.
I swear I won't question
you anymore.
All this time with the hottie
has made me appreciate the work
you did.
How sad that they have to lose us
to appreciate us.
You know I don't believe in gender
generalizations,
but in this case, yes,
I'll admit my mistake.
Thiago,
if I go back to work for you,
it means accepting
that I'm a shitty mother
that I can't get my children
to love me.
Honey, don't be so hard on yourself.
There are many kinds of mothers.
Who says the best mother
is the one who is most present?
Oh, everyone!
Books,
doctors, psychologists!
Well, think about it, my mother
would leave, wouldn't she?
If she sees that you're going back
to work with me
and there's a babysitter,
what business would she have here?
That bitch will make something
up to stay.
No, I swear I'll make sure
she leaves.
Marilis, I won't let you down.
If you come back to me,
I'll kick her out.
I can't give you an answer right
now, I'll think about it.
Well, yes, of course.
Take all the time you need.
Just don't take too long because
No, for my mother, so she'll leave.
Eh?
Well, I finished my part, eh?
Well, maybe I'll study too.
Sure, Rosario.
Do you have a degree?
-I finished elementary school.
-You'll have to take a test
-and that's it.
-Oh, then no.
Yes, you can.
It's very easy.
A Spanish exam
and a personal interview.
I'll help you prepare for it.
Good morning.
Good morning, sir.
-Coffee?
-No, thank you.
I'm just picking up a few things
and then I'll be on my way.
All right.
By the way, just so you know,
I've hired a lawyer.
-Ah
-I'm not going to take
this lying down
while you bleed me dry.
-Anything else?
-Huh?
Yes.
Where's my burgundy dressing gown?
I couldn't find it.
In the white wardrobe,
on the top shelf.
Thanks.
Ma'am, why are you smiling?
-This is getting ugly.
-Yes, Rosario.
But it's the first time
I've had some say in this house.
-Wow, this arrived fast.
-Oh, yes! I'm so excited!
Oh my God, it's a food processor.
Do you know what I can do with it?
Steam cooking,
grilling, crushed ice,
-kneading, Íñigo, kneading!
-Yeah, yeah, that's impressive,
-but let's see
-Dad, what do you want?
Housewives get really excited
about this kind of thing.
Very funny.
Later we'll check out the recipes.
But vegan ones, I want to give up
meat, like my bestie.
Oh my God
But, why does it bother you so much?
Give it time.
What you're doing
is really something.
Wow, more than 300 recipes!
How exciting!
Good morning!
Hi.
Your coffee is all ready.
Would you prefer chocolate
or poppy seed?
I don't feel like anything sweet,
thanks.
Honey, don't punish me,
I'm having a hard enough time
as it is.
It's just that
I can't believe it.
Yes, I went completely crazy,
but it's over now.
I know you’re not hiding anything
from me.
Actions have consequences.
You taught me that.
Well, forget it,
sometimes I say stupid things.
If you pull something
like that again,
our relationship will fall apart.
Don't say that, I'd die.
Come on, let's have breakfast.
Come here, kiss me.
Girl, girl, girl
Yes, damn it.
He shared intimate details
about Vanesa on social media.
That's why he's doing so well.
He's followed
by a bunch of feminists
who hate her and rip on her.
Why do they rip on her?
Because she's a housewife?
No, because he portrays her as
if she were a submissive housewife,
who glorifies scrubbing.
He's made up a story
to stir up controversy.
I told Vanessa.
That guy’s an idiot.
What should we do?
Should we tell her?
I don't know. I've been thinking
about it. All night long.
Vanesa is very much in love.
If we tell her,
we might ruin their relationship.
Are we going to let her stay
with that monster?
Come on,
"monster" is a bit much.
He's just a kid
who wants to be famous.
But she seems happy with him.
I think we should keep quiet.
It'll come out sooner or later.
How long can she go
without anyone telling her
what Richie is doing
on social media?
Vanessa's family
and friends can't stand him.
If they haven't found out yet,
it's because they don't follow him.
So, what?
Do we keep quiet?
We keep quiet.
What bad friends!
There's no other bar in Madrid,
is there?
Madrid is full of bars,
but she has to come to this one.
How annoying.
She's coming.
Remember, don’t say a word.
-Okay, girl.
-Okay.
-Hello.
-Hi.
Girls, everything's sorted
with Richie.
I was convinced
he was hiding something from me.
He told me that he's had
a terrible time.
He even considered ending
the relationship.
-That bastard is cheating on you.
-What?
-What did we agree on?
-That we'd keep quiet.
But, are we going to let him
manipulate her like that?
Vanesa, I need you to check
his social media.
Have you been spying on him?
No, no, no.
Vanesa, check them out.
-I don't want to.
-Come on.
Come on.
No, no, no.
I got here first.
I was outside, but I didn't know
if it was here.
Sorry, I was outside.
Is it time?
We're here for
the Free Women's Club.
We can't help you right now,
because we have an emergency.
No, no, we can.
Are you sure?
Sure.
Well let's get to it.
If you want to stay,
you do nails.
So, I've been putting up with
this bunch of brats
drinking, with the music blaring
until the wee hours.
And the police
they don't do anything
And the worst thing is that they
leave a bunch of broken glass.
There are kids and dogs around.
Girls, tonight we're going on
a mission.
But no tequila, okay?
Lina!
What are you doing?
That's wasabi mayonnaise!
It's going to curdle, Iñigo!
And I’m going to slit my wrists.
if you keep using this contraption.
How can you stand that thing?
It makes an unbearable racket.
There were quieter models,
but your daughter insisted
on this one.
Is this going to be
what our lives are like?
You cooking and me trying everything
so you don't get upset?
-and getting fat as a pig?
-You're fit as a fiddle.
But listen to yourself:
"You're fit as a fiddle."
That's what Ozores used to say,
for God's sake.
You’ve changed.
Marcos was right.
It's as if they'd swapped you
for someone else.
Well, I'm sorry to say that
it's just the opposite.
-That wasn't me.
-I don't know.
I look at you like that, with
your apron on, in slippers,
cooking and singing folk songs
Damn, Lina, copla.
It's grotesque.
The copla is a genre that has been
unjustly disparaged.
It's not given the recognition
it deserves.
I don't care about copla.
It's just that when I look at you,
I see Gracita Morales.
She was a very good actress.
I'm sorry you don't understand
but I'm happier than ever.
So, I think it's up to
you to decide
if you want to take this journey
with me or get off here.
Where are you going?
We're talking.
I have a mission.
What mission?
What are you talking about?
Here comes trouble
Honey, let's talk things over.
We can't go on like this.
Son, do you really want me to leave?
No, I don't. But you went too far.
-You can't embarrass her like that.
-But she lied to you.
Yeah, but she's not ready for
all this stuff about kids.
She wants to do nothing.
She should get a babysitter
and go back to work.
I'm working on it.
I'm this close
to getting her to be
my assistant again.
-Would you like to help me?
-Sure, that's why I'm here.
And that's why I'm telling you, Mom,
you’d better respect my wife
and don't meddle in her life.
You can't come here
and try to control everything.
I know you love Marilis very much,
but the only way she'll react
is to keep bothering her.
Can you do that?
Of course I can.
Anything for you.
All right.
All right.
That woman isn’t what she used
to be. She used to be so pretty.
Her husband was a scoundrel,
and took everything from her.
Come in, Ramon.
Arturo, what are you doing?
It's 10:00 p.m.
An inventory of what I bought,
to see how much you'd have
to give me for the furniture.
What are you talking about?
Are you out of your mind?
Ramón is an auction specialist.
He assesses furniture.
Nice to meet you, ma'am.
I know your husband
from the post office.
Yes, he's been buying Christmas
cards for over 20 years.
I collect them.
The ones from 1996
were the prettiest.
Yes, Induráin was dressed
as one of the Three Wise Men.
Since he retired that year
Those are from '97.
The ones from '96 were the ones
with gold stars around
the Virgin's cloak, in relief.
I bought those too.
I don't care about Christmas cards!
Can't you do the inventory
in the morning?
No, I work to earn the money
that you want to take from me.
-It's mine too.
-And everything here is mine.
No, my mother gave me the bureau.
Can I help you?
No!
Start here, Ramon.
Sir, would you like some soup?
-What is it?
-With little noodle stars.
Oh, like the Virgin Mary's cloak!
What's up, guys?
Same old, same old,
my girl is happy.
She's not here today, I had to
Hi, honey.
What are you doing?
Nothing, watching a game
to upload live.
Oh, I thought selling my life
was enough for you.
What?
You're a son of a bitch.
I saw your social media pages
and I can't believe it.
Who the fuck are you?
I don't know the man I live with.
-You went on my social media pages?
-No, honey, not me.
It was my friend Lina, to buy
the robot you were advertising.
Thanks for making me look like
a doormat.
Have you been spying on me?
No, now you're going to try
to turn this around.
You used me.
Aren't you going to apologize?
No, because you broke our pact.
Richie, when you have
the guts to accept
that what you've done is despicable,
we'll talk.
Until then, don't even look at me.
Looks like I arrived
at the perfect moment.
No, my love, I don't have time.
I'm going on a mission.
-What mission?
-One.
What mission?
What mission?
Communication is the foundation
on which love and respect are based.
She doesn't get it.
-Guys, look, look.
-Check it out.
Oh, son, let me go to my room
to sleep.
No.
Mom, Marilis is Mexican
and you offended her.
She told me she has a mission
and that is that she’s obsessed
with you
-and the trunk of the car.
-With what?
You're staying here tonight
and sleeping with me.
until she calms down.
Come on.
Go to sleep, go to sleep.
Come on.
