6 MONTHS LATER…
Good morning, my love.
So, brioche,
organic watermelon from our garden,
which I used
to make my favorite breakfast,
Happy Watermelon à la Pablo,
and we've also got organic eggs
from our farm in Xicotepec in Morelos.
-[smooches]
-[smooches] Mm.
-Good morning.
-[Pablo] Good morning.

BETWEEN WALLS
[sighs]
How come no one told me that
starting a business means working 24/7,
barely sleeping,
and watching the money disappear
as fast as it comes in?
[chuckles]
Well, that's business for you, Marga.
Think of it like this.
Out of the revenue
for every hundred guests,
eighty percent goes back
into the business,
twenty percent is profit, but all of them…
Hang on, all of them are free advertising.
For each one of those guests,
you'll get
at least three new clients minimum.
Mm. And when will I be like Sofía,
with a thousand employees,
-and going to the spa…
-[chuckles]
-…getting massages, living luxuriously?
-Yeah, well, it's all about patience.
That's how I handle things
with Filomeno too.
Eighty-twenty. You've got to reinvest,
but you've also got
to enjoy the day-to-day.
Right, and when do we start enjoying life?
Every day. [chuckles]
It's not all about money, Marga.
Do we have any more jam?
Oops. I forgot the jam.
Yeah, you're right.
You know what?
I'll ask our neighbor for a bit.
-Sure?
-[Marga] Yeah.
All right, organic, please.
[indistinct chatter]
[doorbell ringing]
-[Marga] Hey! [chuckles]
-Hey! How are you, Marga?
-Oops, did I wake you?
-No, I was already awake.
-I just wanted to ask for some jam, okay?
-[Claudio] Oh, yeah, yeah.
-Come in, come in.
-Okay.
-[sighs] Sh…
-[Marga] Uh. Everything all right?
-[Claudio] Yeah, you know, just here…
-[slow whimsical music playing]
-…enjoying the single life. [chuckles]
-[Marga chuckles] Yeah.
-[Claudio] Oh, look, here's the jam.
-[Marga chuckles]
This one's amazing, huh?
You'll love it, okay? [chuckles]
Oh! Uh. Yeah. It's strawberry, right?
-[Claudio] Mm-hmm.
-Yeah.
It's just that I'm kind of allergic
to strawberries. [chuckles]
-[Claudio] Oh, okay.
-Sometimes. But it's fine, don't worry.
[chuckles]
Are you sure you don't need help
with anything at all? Are you okay?
Well, now that you mention it, there is…
there's something really important
I wanted to tell you.
Whatever you need, tell me. I'm here.
[clicks tongue]
Can I borrow Pablo's new vacuum?
That amazing one he just got.
It's just that…
it's time to clean up, right?
Now, move on to the water tanks, okay?
First, put this product on it,
-wait a few minutes…
-Mm-hmm.
…and then you apply this one after,
all right?
-Got it?
-Mm-hmm. Understood.
-[Jaime] Go ahead then.
-Someone's looking for you.
Huh? Oh! All right, go ahead.
-[chuckles] Hey, sweetie
-[Kari] Hey, Jimie.
-[smooches]
-[Jaime smooches]
-How are you?
-[Jaime] Good, and you?
Great.
-What?
-[Kari] Sweetie…
-[slow funky music playing]
-Oh, the shoes. [chuckles]
Uh. Hey, aren't you afraid of falling?
Because you're, like,
six feet tall now, huh?
-Aw.
-[Jaime chuckles]
As long as it gets me closer to your lips.
-[Jaime] Mm-hmm. [smooches]
-[smooches]
-Mm.
-[chuckles]
Hey, um, so… You know what?
I got you something.
-Really?
-[Kari] Yeah.
-Here.
-What is it?
[Kari] I hope you like it.
[Jaime] Oh, what?
Do I really smell that bad or what?
No, don't be silly.
It's really nice. Go on, try it.
-[blows, sniffs]
-[sniffs]
-[grunts] Oh, yeah. Yeah. Smells nice.
-Yummy, right?
Yeah, I agree, yeah. [chuckles]
-You didn't like it?
-No, yeah, I loved it.
-Yeah, thanks.
-[Kari] Use it, okay?
-This is expensive, right? Yeah.
-[Kari] Very, but that's not important.
-You're worth it.
-Okay.
Hey, babe, so, what's the plan for today?
Oh! How about we binge-watch
all episodes of Roses of Fire? Okay?
Oh, babe. Now, don't take this
the wrong way. It's good.
I love it,
but I already watched all five episodes
-after you fell asleep, remember?
-Well, that's because I was tired.
You know what? Yeah, but even better,
what about making a reservation
for that restaurant,
the one with the… Right?
The one with the grasshoppers…
-[Jaime] Yeah.
-…and the rose.
If you want, I’ll make the reservation.
Let's go, yeah. Sounds good. Yeah.
-I love you. [smooches]
-[smooches] I love you more.
-Use that a lot, use that a lot.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah. [chuckles] Bye.
[sighs deeply]
Delivery!
The jam has arrived at your doorstep.
Oh, girl, thanks,
you saved me with this jam.
Look, babe, jumbo size,
so you don't run out.
I mean, if I do
all the grocery shopping for Claudio,
the least he can do is bring you,
my partner, a jar of jam…
-For God's sake.
-[chuckles] All right.
-Hey, Pablo, how are you?
-Great, and you?
All right, perfect.
I'm just gonna borrow her for two seconds.
I promise she'll be back in no time.
Yeah, sure.
I'll let you two work in peace.
-[Kari] Okay, perfect.
-Thanks for the jam.
[Kari] I've already confirmed
the three-course menu
with dessert included.
-Mm-hmm.
-Uh. So that's all set.
And… Oh, guess what?
-Girl, Brenda called me.
-[Marga] Mm.
And she asked me to add five more guests.
I know.
-Come on, Kari…
-I know.
…we agreed that you'd tell her
the venue only fits a 110 people.
-And we're already at a 120.
-Yeah.
Now, we're at 125.
So, that means we need to cut 15.
-Exactly. Your math's good.
-Just tell her no.
-No, I know. The thing is…
-Tell her no.
Yeah, well, I was gonna tell her,
but I was stuck deciding
between the crème brûlée…
-[Pablo] What's wrong with the water?
-…and the panna cotta, and…
-What happened?
-No idea.
-What happened, babe? You okay?
-What the hell?
-[Kari gasps]
-[Marga gasps]
-[Kari] Hold on.
-[Marga] What's that?
[Kari] Don't worry, Pablo.
I’m calling Jimie right now, yeah.
-Just… Calm down, babe.
-What the hell?
Uh. Jimie! Hey.
[chuckles] Yeah, same here.
Hey, listen, I don't think
the water tank was fixed properly.
[crowd clamoring]
No, the thing is, kids these days
have nothing but all that virtual stuff,
or whatever it's called, in their heads,
so they don’t listen to anything,
and they can’t remember anything.
Check this out.
-[Trini] Right.
-See?
Plus, it's a health hazard.
My daughter almost got poisoned.
Hey, babe, I think
you're running late for work, right?
And besides,
it doesn't even show anymore.
-You can leave like this.
-Okay, don't worry.
-I'll handle it, all right?
-Okay.
I'll call you in a bit
after I figure out how to fix this.
-[Marga] Okay, babe.
-Your problems are our problems.
-Aw! [smooches]
-[Pablo smooches] Bye.
-Bye.
-[Pablo] Bye, Kari.
Well, just go wash your face, okay?
-Neighbors, your attention, please.
-[Kari] Yeah. [shushes]
We're cleaning out
the pink stuff in the water tanks…
[Paty] "Pink, pink."
…so I have to ask you not to turn on
any faucets until further notice please.
Jimie, Jimie, don't say "pink."
It's more like fuchsia.
-They meant fuchsia, right?
-Okay, yeah.
-[Kari] It's more fuchsia.
-Sure, babe.
All right, hold on,
but what exactly happened?
Nothing. Well, it’s just that
Alafita went overboard with the cleaner
for the water tanks.
No, well, I just put in
what Ms. Trini told me to use.
No! That wasn't the same brand
as the one Jaimito brought.
It's only what we can afford
with the maintenance fee you pay.
[crowd clamoring]
All right, all right.
Hey, hey, calm down, please, okay?
In his defense, you all voted for Alafita
to handle it instead of a professional.
Now, if you want water,
you'll have to hurry,
and get it from the water tank
within the next two hours.
[Jaime] They'll cut the water off after,
and it won't be turned back on
until tonight.
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
I vote to suspend Alafita's punishment.
I think he’s already paid his dues.
It's time to forgive him. Hey.
What's really stressing me out is that
new clients are about to show up
-while this place is a circus.
-Yeah.
-I mean, what are we gonna tell them?
-Well, it’s simple.
You stay here,
and I’ll take them to the meeting room,
discuss their budget,
and chat with them, and…
-[Martín] Hey, what's up!
-[Ramiro] Hey, Martín!
-[neighbors] Martín!
-[soft pensive music playing]
[heart thumping]
[echoes] Hey.
Does Martín already know
you're with Pablo?
-[Alafita] How'd it go?
-[Martín] Yeah, well, good, good, good.
Great, thanks a lot.
-The clients are here. Know what? I…
-Oh.
-Good afternoon, Karina Molina.
-Hey, nice to meet you.
-[Marga] Hi. How's it going?
-Nice to meet you.
-[Kari] Go on. Straight ahead.
-[Marga] Yes, this is just…
It's great
to have you back here again. [laughs]
What's up? You're here early.
Hey, yeah, tell us
how it went, Martin, my boy.
Yeah, tell us.
Yeah, well, basically, it was one
of those life-changing experiences.
Honestly, it was so awesome, for real.
-[Trini] Of course.
-Very, very, very…
Hey, is it true that
you can spot celebrities on every street?
Yeah, that's totally true, hmm?
You can even run into them
at the grocery store.
It's basically like being
in a Hollywood movie every day.
[Trini] Like what?
In fact, before I forget,
I brought you guys little gifts.
-[neighbors gasping, cheering]
-It's just a little something,
-but here you go.
-Show me, show me, show me.
-[neighbors cheering]
-[Martín speaks indistinctly]
Oh, perfect. Look, look.
This is for you, Lauro.
-Really?
-[Martín] Yeah.
-This one's for you. Look at that.
-Oh, thanks.
[Martín] Very special, huh?
With lots of love.
[Alafita] So, what's up with work?
When are we gonna see
your big Hollywood production?
Yeah!
I mean, I wouldn't say
it's a big Hollywood production.
I'd say the production's a little more,
more deep.
Let’s say it’s more of an indie film,
something made by an auteur.
-[Jaime] Oh, but that's also nice.
-[Martín] Yeah, right.
It's a movie
that might premiere at festivals, right?
-Let's go to Los Angeles, Paty.
-There? No.
Yeah, as you can see,
it's a pretty spacious lounge
with some interesting nooks.
And, well, the decoration
is up to each client.
This is the lobby.
We already let your partner know
that there are 120 of us.
There's no problem with that, right?
It's just… There's a little issue
with that number, but…
we'll discuss it, we'll discuss it, yeah.
Something I really like about this venue
is it's very… It has a… a…
-[breathes heavily] Phew! Oh!
-[speaks indistinctly, hums]
[breathes deeply]
-What's wrong?
-Something's wrong with me. It's like…
-You're having trouble breathing?
-Mm-hmm.
-That's a panic attack.
-Oh, really?
-We're used to it.
-How great.
[client 1] We see it
all the time at the office.
-Let me.
-Yes. Yeah, I'll sit down.
-Uh. Breathe, breathe in for four seconds.
-Okay.
-One, two, three, four. Hold it for four.
-[inhales deeply]
-[muffled] Okay.
-One, two, three, four.
-Now, exhale for four.
-[exhales deeply]
-One, two, three, four.
-He just showed up out of nowhere.
I don't understand why it happened.
[breathes heavily]
My ex… Well, no, he wasn’t my ex.
I don’t even know what we were,
but right now, we’re nothing.
I don’t get why
he came back from Hollywood.
Hollywood is amazing.
I mean, what’s he…?
There’s nothing to do here.
There’s really nothing.
There’s nothing here.
He had no reason to come back,
and besides, he didn’t even tell me.
I’m with Pablo.
And Pablo, uh, I care about him a lot.
Pablo's a great guy.
-And…
-Doing great.
And now, I don't know, he just showed up,
and I think
I still have a lot of feelings for him,
but no, no, I don't like feeling
this much for him. It's just… [sobs]
-Ooh! Oh!
-Whoa.
-Wait, wait.
-It's all right.
-[exhales] It's so hot in here, huh?
-Need help?
-Huh? Oh, hot. Are you hot?
-You know what? I'm fine now. [laughs]
-Very hot.
-I'm fine.
-I was just hot.
-Really?
I was just feeling really hot,
but now, I'm okay.
If you want,
I can show you the other lounge.
-Yeah.
-This way.
-Ah!
-Yeah.
-Sorry about the mess, Martín…
-[Martín sighs] Okay.
…but you told me
at the very, very, very last second
that you were coming.
I was about to start cleaning up,
and then you just showed up, man.
"Start cleaning"? [chuckles]
For the first time
in six months it seems, huh?
No, I cleaned like three weeks ago…
like a month ago, but…
-Hey, it's all right.
-…the mess piles up real fast, man.
-[Martín sighs]
-Anyway, tell me. How was it over there?
You know, nothing out of the ordinary.
Hey, what's been happening here?
Like, what's new?
Anything interesting or what?
Oh, well, everything's normal here,
the usual stuff, you know.
And what happened? Why'd you come back?
I mean,
it's great to have you back with us,
but you were doing so well, man.
You were editing movies,
doing what you love.
Well, yeah, man, it was good.
I mean, we finished the movie,
and then, well,
they offered me another one,
but I had to turn it down.
I would've had to stay there
for another eight months…
-[Claudio] Sure.
-…and I just couldn't do that, man.
I was over there for almost six months,
but my place,
my home, my friends are here.
So, I told them no, man.
-Six months flew by, right? Wow!
-[Martín] Yeah.
Damn, Claudio, I know you too well, hmm?
Are you gonna tell me
what's going on with Marga,
or are you just gonna keep playing dumb?
-Uh. Marga… Marga…
-Yeah.
What? So, you…
you haven't talked to her at all
since you left?
-Nothing at all?
-Not once, no.
All right. [chuckles]
Well, I think it's better
if she tells you herself, man.
Stories are always better
when told firsthand, right?
Hey, is this shirt yours or mine?
Because I don't remember anymore, hmm?
You keep it, man. Looks like you liked it.
-Really?
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, thanks, man. Hey,
I'm gonna start cleaning.
Sorry… Really sorry, man.
Sorry, sorry. Yeah, I messed up. [sighs]
-[Claudio grunts]
-[cutlery clinking]
[gentle piano music playing]
-[exhales deeply]
-[knocking]
[exhales deeply]
[exhales, sighs deeply]
-[indistinct chatter]
-[birds chirping]
[breathes deeply] Okay.
I mean, right now he’s all sweet,
saying he loves her and all that,
but tomorrow,
he’ll be off with someone else.
Trust me, I know.
And when they check their phones,
oh, it'll be a big mess.
No, honestly,
I'm more of a Martín fan, hmm.
Forget about Team Martín.
Pablo got me a reservation at Filomeno.
Honestly, he's such a great guy.
Because you don’t know everything
Martín did for her.
Exactly.
Ramiro, Ramiro, where are you going?
-Uh. We're training for the triathlon.
-"Triathlon"?
I didn’t know you were into that.
-[Ramiro] Yeah, he invited…
-Oh, Tito!
-Let's go!
-[upbeat instrumental music playing]
-Hmm. Okay. Uh.
-See you tonight?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
See you later tonight, right?
-Yeah, see you later tonight. Oh. Bye.
-Okay, bye. Bye.
-[bells dinging]
-[Ramiro] Let's go!
Hey Jimie, about the reservation,
my schedule's fully booked for the month,
so I was thinking maybe, I don't know,
a short break instead?
-Oh, it'd be amazing…
-[Kari] Yeah. [chuckles]
…to take a little break, yeah.
Well, I don't wanna get ahead of myself,
but let's see if you like it.
Let's see. I was looking at this spa.
It has hot stone massages, Thai massages,
Scandinavian massages, and acupuncture.
-You interested?
-Mm, it looks really good.
-Uh.
-Yeah, right?
Although I was thinking more of…
I don't know…
-What?
-…going camping somewhere,
watching the stars,
you know, making a campfire.
-Campfire, right.
-Uh. Well, but it's up to you, um. I mean…
-No, no way?
-[Jaime] I'm just saying, hmm?
-A campfire would be nice at the spa.
-Yeah. Right. Let's go. Sure.
[chuckles] Uh, uh.
-Jimie, I'll help you.
-[Jaime] I'll keep putting these up.
[soft instrumental music playing]
-[indistinct chatter]
-[player 1] Harder, harder!
[player 2] Pass it, pass it. Quickly!
[player 2] That's it.
Doing great. That’s it. Whoa!
-Go, Nacho!
-[player 1] Block him. Block him.
[Martín] What's up?
-[chuckles, whistles]
-[player 2] All right!
[Nacho] But look who's back.
None other
than the Hollywood star himself.
-I knew I'd find you here. [laughs]
-[pants]
-So, how was it? You did well?
-Yeah, did great.
You know gringos, right?
Over there,
well, the industry is just different.
-Yeah.
-[Martín] Yeah.
What? You're not playing?
-Oh, no. I just stopped by to say hi.
-[Nacho] Sure?
Yeah, yeah, sure.
And anything new happen around here, hmm?
As always. Look. Same old faces here.
And why did you come back so soon?
How's everything going?
Oh, no, it's just that
I'll be coming and going now.
-In short, I'll just be freelancing.
-[Nacho] Freelancing.
So, you know,
if you have any work available,
-let me know, hmm? Yeah.
-[chuckles]
Oh, man,
things are pretty messed up around here.
-Oh.
-[Nacho] If I were you, I'd go back.
Yeah. Uh. But…
I mean, if something comes up,
you'd let me know, right?
-I'll call you. Yeah.
-[Martín] Yeah? All right.
-It's good to see you.
-You, too.
-[upbeat whimsical music playing]
-[sighs]
[guitar playing quick tune]
Fucking piece of shit!
[breathes deeply]
Okay, Marga, Marga, Marga,
the black envelope
isn't for this invitation.
It's for the purple one.
-Black, purple, black, purple, black…
-I don't get it.
He left me just to go away for six months?
[Kari] Yeah, no, it's awful.
I thought
he was gonna be gone for a lifetime,
-or at least a few years. At least, right?
-Right. Yeah.
And then he dares to come back
to this building, to his apartment
without even warning me?
He didn’t even warn me.
He could've let me know.
-All done, miss.
-Don’t you think?
You could have… Just breathe now.
Yeah, the plumber finished. He's done.
-Yeah. How nice.
-Yeah. [chuckles]
Why is that…
Those faucets didn’t need to be changed.
Mr. Pablo asked me
to change all the faucets here.
-The ones you had were all rusted.
-Mm. Thanks a lot.
-They look nice, right? They’re pretty.
-Okay. Thanks. Yeah, they're great.
-Yeah, they look like copper, right?
-Thanks.
Okay. Uh. You can go. Thanks.
Uh. Hey, no, we need to pay him.
Um. What… How… How much is it?
I'll work it out with Mr. Pablo.
-Okay, perfect.
-Okay. Thanks.
-How nice of you.
-Great. Thanks so much.
-I'm going to pick up my tools. Excuse me.
-[Kari] Sure.
I don't understand
how I'm going to tell Martín
that I'm living with Pablo now.
-I'm not going to…
-You don't need to tell him anything.
-That's the good part.
-He's going to think I'm crazy.
No, Marga,
no one is going to think anything.
Know what? You don’t need
to give any explanations, okay?
'Cause he went off to rebuild his life,
and follow his dream,
and you stayed here
living your own life, right?
And besides,
you found someone who’s amazing,
a great guy who takes care of you
and loves you.
He missed his chance,
and you’re in a different place now,
right?
-Pablo is great because…
-[Kari] Pablo is fantastic.
Besides, Martín left because he wanted to.
I didn't mess up.
-No, of course not.
-Do you agree? I didn't do anything.
-He just left.
-No, sure, he left. Perfect.
Now, give me a second.
Let’s talk about the presentation.
This is the one I prepared.
And I feel like we should add
a few more orchids
because these people
are a bit of show-offs,
-and they like… I don’t know…
-Besides, I started seeing Pablo
-only after Martín left.
-[Kari] Yeah.
I mean, a few days later,
but it was after. Right?
So, it's not like
he has anything to complain about.
-Do you agree?
-He can't complain.
And besides, he probably hit
on tons of old women in Los Angeles.
Hey, please, not the black one,
not the black one.
The red one, the red one, please.
The plumber's gonna wonder if we're okay.
I'm gonna go say bye to the plumber.
-[Marga] I'm doing fine.
-He totally thinks we're crazy.
[Marga] Oh, no!
You think he has a girlfriend?
[Kari] Yeah. I'll open the door for you
in a moment, sir.
You think he has a girlfriend?
[Kari] No,
I don’t think he has a girlfriend.
and relationships
in Los Angeles don’t last, girl.
They really don’t.
And remember,
you have an amazing boyfriend, Marga.
-Probably. [chuckles]
-[Kari] Sir, this way. I'll let you out.
-[elevator dinging]
-[crickets chirping]
What the hell, man? Why are you here?
I forgot some things at the apartment,
and since I left you my key,
well, I couldn't get in.
-Are you sure?
-Yeah, yeah, man. I'm fine, I'm fine.
-Okay. Let's go.
-Let's go.
[sighs]
-Come. Well, come on.
-Hey, so what’s up with you?
Are you going back
to your old job or what?
Well, we'll have to see, yeah. Why not?
-[Claudio] Really?
-Yeah, yeah.
Hey, how’s everything going
with Nacho, huh?
-[sighs] Good, everything's all great.
-[Claudio] Really?
Yeah, you have no idea
how much work is coming in, huh?
-So, I'm really happy about that too.
-Well, then that’s awesome, man.
Yeah, it's really cool.
-[chuckles] Yeah.
-Wow, dude.
Oh, it’s just that
I left a ton of stuff here, man.
-[Claudio] This… Hey, Martín.
-[Martín] Mm-hmm?
I think I'll need to come back later
because, yeah, there's so much stuff,
and well, it'll be hard
to pack up properly now, right?
I'll need a bigger suitcase.
I know I told you to leave, but…
I mean, that's what we agreed on.
-Uh-huh.
-[Martín] But I've been thinking,
and if it works for you,
and you're interested,
-it'd be good to split the rent, right?
-[upbeat quirky music playing]
-You sure?
-Yeah.
If it works for you, then it's cool.
I mean, while you're looking
for a job and all, right?
Yeah, no, no, no.
I'll find a job really quickly,
no problem.
-Totally. It's hard out there. [laughs]
-[laughs] Yeah.
Hey, and… what's up with Ramiro?
Everything's great with Ramiro, man.
It's… [chuckles]
…it's better than ever, man.
Right now, with the space,
everything's going fine,
and if I explain things to him,
he'll understand. No problem.
-Are you sure?
-Totally.
-It's just…
-Well, then, so… roomies?
-Roomies.
-One more thing.
I'll need you
to be very, very organized from now on.
[Pablo over cellphone] Hi, beautiful!
Hey, I just talked to my family,
and they said we can stay at the ranch
while we sort out this water issue.
You're gonna love it.
It's right in the middle of nature.
If you want,
we can even go horseback riding
if you're up for it.
What time do you want me to pick you up?
No, babe, it's just that… [sighs]
…I'm currently confirming
floral arrangements,
and later… tomorrow,
I have a meeting with Brenda and Ro.
It'll be better if I stay here.
Don’t worry.
[Pablo over cellphone]
No, don’t worry about it. I’ll talk to Ro.
He’s my friend, so he’ll understand.
I’ll tell him to postpone.
And they’re also my clients.
And I really do need
to go to that meeting, okay?
It’s better if you go.
Know what? That doesn’t sound too bad.
A little bit of "me time."
Can you pack
my lavender shampoo for me please?
-Okay, bye. [smooches]
-[Pablo over cellphone] Thanks.
What's that?
-[gasps] Oh, hey, Jaime.
-[Jaime] Hi.
It's just that I saw you slipped this
under the door.
Oh, yeah. [chuckles]
-Do you know what it is?
-Uh. No.
-Look.
-Let's see.
[Jaime] Oh, it's about the venue.
The neighbors from the building across
probably complained.
-[soft whimsical music playing]
-So, do you think they'll shut us down?
Well, let Kari know.
If I were you, I’d make sure
to stay on top of things, hmm?
Oh, no, Jaime, what are we gonna do now?
[Jaime sighs]
-[Claudio] Thanks.
-Great.
Mm, mm.
-Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm.
-[sighs]
-What's this, man?
-Nothing important.
[sighs]
-[Claudio] Man, no way!
-[Martín] Ha!
This is really, really awesome.
Now, we can actually play poker
like professionals! What…
I mean,
we just need the players now, right?
[Claudio] Yeah, right?
Hey, by the way, did they reply?
What'd they say?
Uh. No.
And I think we should forget about them
because Jaime's with Kari all day,
-and Alafita is busy…
-Okay.
…either studying
for the university entrance exam,
or doing jobs for Paty, Trini, or Lauro.
It seems like they went
a little overboard that punishment, huh?
That's exactly what I said, man.
-[gentle instrumental music playing]
-[Marga] What?
-Hi.
-Hi.
[Lauro] Fucking piece of shit!
-[chuckles]
-[Marga chuckles]
-Some things definitely haven't changed.
-I know.
Um.
-That new haircut looks great on you.
-Oh.
Thanks. [chuckles]
Yours looks great too.
Uh. [sighs] It really suits you.
[chuckles]
[Martín] It goes well
with everything. Yeah.
-[sighs deeply]
-[sighs]
So, did your life change
a lot over there? Yeah? Hmm?
Nah. I mean, yeah, it was cool being there
and working,
seeing some new places, but…
No, I'm still the same.
-Yeah. [chuckles]
-[Marga] Hmm.
Hmm. And you? How have you been?
Uh. How's the lounge going?
Uh. I imagine it's going great, right?
Well, some issues, the usual.
-[chuckles] But it's going well, you know.
-[Martín] Hmm.
Hey, how about we have dinner?
From balcony to balcony,
like in the old days.
-It’d be a good chance to catch up.
-I have a lot of work in the morning.
So, I can’t right now. But, uh…
we'll see, okay? [sighs]
-[Martín] Yeah, yeah, we'll see.
-Yeah.
-Maybe one of these days, right?
-Hmm. Mm-hmm.
Uh. [sighs]
It's just…
Well, I need to tell you something.
Yeah?
[chuckles]
I don’t know how to tell you, but…
I mean, during the months
you were away, well…
-lots of things changed in my life.
-Yeah, mine too.
I mean, actually, while I was there,
I did so many things, and…
each of those things
reminded me a lot of you. Actually…
I’m seeing someone.
And he lives here, I mean, with me.
Well, ha… welcome back,
and have a nice evening.
[elevator dinging]
[grunts] Hey, uh, good evening.
Kid, you shouldn’t hold onto anything
in life.
Everything you don’t let go of
will come back to haunt you.
-Yeah.
-That's enough.
-[sighs] Good night.
-Go ahead.
-Good night.
-Good night.
[breathes deeply]
-Poor thing, right?
-Why?
-He looks lost.
-Oh, well, he's gotta deal with that.
-You think?
-Oh, yeah, Paty, you're so sentimental.
-But why did they drift apart so much?
-Well, how should I know?
[Paty] I thought they were so in love
at the beginning.
[Trini] Well, seemed like it,
but now, just look.
[soft sensual music playing]
[Paty] Poor thing.
[Trini] Why pity him? He's young.
[soft sensual music continues]
