Cindy la Regia: The High School Years (2023) s01e04 Episode Script
Wet Dream
- [contemplative guitar music playing]
- [mirror squeaking]
[water running]
[gasps]
[man] Cynthia!
Cynthia!
- Present.
- [students laughing]
[sighs]
[Cindy] I guess you could say
I've been a little hormonal lately.
But that's normal.
Isn't it?
[slow, melodic guitar music playing]
The truth is, I finally feel like
everything is the way it should be.
Handball!
Don't mess with me! Clear as day!
That's a handball, period! Look!
Not fair.
That son of a gun's a pig. There it is.
[Cindy] For instance, my boyfriend, Max
has been so attentive.
[music becomes lively]
On our one-month anniversary,
he brought me a rose.
So cute.
He brought her a flower.
[Cindy] And on our two-month anniversary,
he gave me two.
[woman] Let me guess.
He gave you three roses
for your three-month anniversary?
No, uh, actually,
we'll be celebrating that this week.
Doctor, according to my research,
I read that
for this type of skin problem,
those little contraception pills
Ha! Cynthia Garza!
My dear!
There's absolutely no way
you'll be taking contraceptives, my love.
Well, in any case, we won't be treating
your rash with contraceptives, Cindy.
You have a case
of nervous dermatitis, dear.
I'm going to give you an ointment,
and in a few days
we'll check in and see how you feel.
[chuckling]
[Caro] Cindy, my love,
are you having sexual relations?
Uh!
No, Mom, you don't have to worry.
Mom, no, I swear!
Okay, my love.
Just, come here.
Baby, I want to trust you,
but you have to try to understand
that you have to be
very cautious, Cynthia.
And?
So how will I know how long to wait?
I mean, how about after,
say, you finish high school?
Or when you finish post-grad.
After your first doctorate.
When you buy a house, my love.
Your first home
and you're a wife and all that.
There's so much ahead, my love.
Hey, mom?
- You and Daddy
- [quiet, contemplative music playing]
You waited until marriage, right?
Obviously!
[scoffs]
Cynthia, what's up
with your questions, huh?
- Get in the car, dear.
- [laughing]
CINDY LA REGIA: THE HIGH SCHOOL YEARS
You're something else.
You're scaring me Cynthia Garza!
[dog barking]
[music stops]
Hey, Cuz?
All good with your flour tortilla?
Babe, when you have dreams
You mean wet dreams?
- [sighs]
- [chuckles]
Do you have any with Irene?
Oh, no.
Your mind is trying to play tricks
on you and your tortilla.
[chuckling]
[Latin music ringtone on cell phone]
[ringing stops]
You and Irene okay?
Okay.
We're both screwed.
We'll each carry our own cross.
You really need to stop
hanging out with Tere.
You brat.
[upbeat music playing]
- Lu!
- God!
Mmm.
No, thanks.
You don't even know what I'm gonna ask.
You want advice on what to give Cindy
for your three-month monthiversary.
Y Yeah.
Let's see.
[music stops]
No.
- [Max] This one.
- [chuckling] No.
- And this?
- No.
[giggling] Let me see!
- No Lu, wait! Wait stop!
- Uh-uh. Shh. Wait. Hey.
Jeez. You good?
- You wanna listen now?
- Yeah.
Well, then chill.
Ummm.
You might have good intentions.
Mm-hm.
But
So the lighting sucks big time.
- And this
- [upbeat music playing]
Add a little zing, yeah?
Try harder.
I'm joking. [giggles]
Or maybe I'm not. [giggles]
Four point five isn't bad, you know?
Wait, what?
I got minus 16.
[music fades out]
Oh. Bren! Bren! Bren! Bren! Bren! Bren!
[Brenda] What?
I meant the reservation
for the restaurant.
For my third monthiversary.
Cindy, our midterm's coming up.
I know, I know, I know.
I promise I'll book this
and then we can study?
Hey,
how about going to the Revelation?
Revelation?
Yeah, it's pretty awesome.
Five star review!
Perhaps I could get you a reservation.
- No!
- But
you gotta promise me
you'll start studying now.
- [school bell ringing]
- [upbeat music playing]
[Brenda] You promise?
- [Cindy] Yes.
- [Brenda] All right.
So then, what about this answer?
[Cindy] Why are people obsessed
with telling me to wait
for when I'm ready?
Why can't I just do things when I want?
I mean, it's not like the DMV
gives you a freakin' card
that grants you permission
or a license to be
Sexually active
with your boyfriend, am I right?
Lu!
- Lu!
- You asking me for permission or what?
I feel like every time I mention Max
you withdraw. It's weird.
[music stops]
I just don't appreciate
being a third wheel.
What?
Lu, you know better than anyone
that Max is the third wheel.
- You know that!
- [chuckling]
It's not the same, though.
Don't worry about it, yeah?
You might be finding the one soon.
Oh, God.
Bye to the one.
Just give me the best.
Cyn, I'm not gonna fall for the first boy
that sweeps me off my feet.
Okay.
If you don't want the one,
how about you get yourself a for now?
Ah, that's unlikely.
My standards are insufferably high.
You know me. Bye.
Hey!
[upbeat music playing]
[chuckles]
CHANGE OF PLANS: DOUBLE DATE THIS FRIDAY.
[music stops]
Babe?
I have a confession for you.
Babe?
Babe, are you sleeping?
[quiet snoring]
So I've, never
Cum.
Ah!
What?
So you were awake then!
[gasps] Holy fuck balls, babe!
You've been wanting to fuck your guy
and you've never experienced an orgasm?
Well, I know what it is.
Theoretically.
I just lack the experience personally.
So obviously, Max and I will work on it.
My mind is seriously blown.
But I love you.
[sighs]
[people chattering]
You all right? [chuckles]
I didn't sleep well.
Yeah, I was up studying all night too.
What, studying?
Grab one and pass them around.
You've got 90 minutes.
Fuck! The exam's right now!
[tense music playing]
- [music stops]
- Whatever, like,
the point is, Irene never understood
that I didn't just bail.
They made me.
[teacher chattering]
It's kind of a big deal
for your mom to kick you out of the house.
But what happened, if you don't mind?
Wait.
- Bro, hang on!
- What?
- I set my mom's boyfriend's car on fire.
- What?
- Shh!
- Angie!
[light, upbeat music playing]
[teacher] Try to contain it in the tray.
- That was it, nothing terrible.
- Nothing terrible.
- Yeah, so what?
- [teacher] Oh my God.
- It's not a big Oh, fuck.
- [teacher] No, no!
- I mean, everything's fine.
- [hissing]
[both chuckle]
Like, it was an accident.
Well, they said it was an accident
because they didn't press charges.
- So yeah, it's fine.
- [people laughing]
Okay, well stop looking all judgy.
He deserved it, then.
Yeah.
- Yeah, to be honest, he did.
- [chuckles]
Okay.
[teacher] Contain it. Contain it Ohhh!
[girl] Sorry.
[music stops]
Would it be okay if I got another chance?
[Esteban sighs]
Well, look,
for you, I will make an exception.
Just because I know you are capable,
but you have to fully commit, Cynthia.
Yeah.
Have you ever thought
about getting any tutoring?
Hmm. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Whatever it takes, yes.
Okay.
This stays between us, Cynthia. Okay?
[sighs] Yes.
Thank you.
Bye.
[light, pop music playing]
TUTORING ROOM 1
[singing in Spanish]
Have a seat.
- I was told you need some help in math.
- Yes.
- Yes. [chuckles]
- All right.
Well, show me what you got.
[music becomes more lively]
I have a boyfriend.
O Okay. [chuckling]
It's just, no, I, um
I'm not, you know, assuming that you've
been flirting or anything like that? You
- I mean you
- [chuckling]
Okay, okay. Don't worry about it.
Now it makes sense
why you hang out with Brenda.
Two trolls that found each other.
[music fades out]
[gasps faintly]
Ow!
Okay, uh-huh.
Okay, give me a sec.
- [girl] Mmm.
- I swear, I won't take long.
'Kay.
[both chuckle]
It's cute, no?
Cute?
What? Who are you,
and what did you do to my Angie?
No, I mean
I challenge you to coexist every day
with the it girls of San Pedro
and see if you don't end up
sounding like one after a while.
I'm sorry. I'm sure it's a pain.
Yeah, but honestly, they're great.
Even the biggest brat is a badass.
Deep down.
Mmm
Mm-hm. Whoa.
No fucking way.
Are you wearing makeup? [chuckles]
I'm sorry.
I I just think you looked better before.
I love you, you know that?
[emotional Spanish pop music playing]
Angie?
Thank you?
"Thank you"?
I think I need a little time.
What if it's time to end things, Angie?
Yeah, I guess.
Angie?
I guess it's time, then.
[sniffling]
- [music continues]
- [sniffling]
Not all's completely lost, you know?
- Well, that's the thing, though.
- [music fades out]
I don't know.
I had an idea of what I felt, and now,
everything's warped.
You know?
[Tere] Mm-hm.
[quiet, upbeat music playing]
- [inhales deeply]
- [music stops]
[Tere] Mmm.
Uhhh
When I get confused, I talk to God.
It helps me find some clarity.
You You really believe,
but for real, no?
More than some in this town.
I know it's different.
I'm going to study theology,
and then my next plan
is to go to a convent.
So you really wanna be a nun, then?
Okay.
But that's in the future.
This won't change anything?
Nah. No.
[breathing deeply]
I'm, uh, you know, going to the bathroom.
[Max] I found someone
for our double date with Lu.
That's Bruno Montiel.
He was offered a scholarship
at the University of Chicago,
a Political Science major,
and he's really great at sports.
And the best part is, he already agreed.
Oh my God! Max! You're the best!
[forced chuckle]
[quiet, upbeat music playing]
[sighing]
Max told us you're going
for a degree in Political Science.
Yeah.
It's just a fraction of my plan
for the next 20 years.
I'll study at Northwestern,
and I plan to build
my political career here.
Is that plan yours or your family's?
Because your uncle's
a representative, right?
It really must be a relief
to have that big an advantage in your, uh,
twenty-year plan?
And? Entire families
get into politics sometimes.
It's tradition.
Christmas
is a freaking tradition, sweetie.
Should we all get an entree
or go straight to the main course?
- Main course.
- Main course.
[whispering] Necklace.
[gasps faintly]
[Max] Cyn?
Happy anniversary, baby.
[gasps faintly]
Want me to put it on?
Sure.
Be right back.
Uh, me too.
[flutters lips]
So, do you like soccer?
I actually prefer golf.
Huh.
Dude, what's wrong?
Nothing.
Come on, Cindy, you wanting to double date
on your anniversary is not normal, dude.
It's not Max.
It's me, he's not the one.
I don't know how to handle this.
[quiet, contemplative
guitar music playing]
I mean,
I don't want to be alone with him.
Hmm.
And I promised him we'd go to
his place after having dinner
with you guys.
[inhales deeply]
Cindy, you don't owe anything to anyone.
And if Max doesn't understand that,
that's his problem.
All right.
Here's the plan.
[lounge music playing]
[gasps] I'm sorry.
Don't worry.
[chuckles]
What are you doing here?
Well, I work here.
Really?
How do you think you got this reservation?
[chuckles faintly]
Is there a back door?
[sighs faintly]
Um, I'm so sorry.
- Yeah.
- [chuckles]
[Max] Where's Cindy?
Female emergency.
And the idiot?
He left, but,
he paid the entire check.
Thank you.
[chuckles]
So the door is that way.
I I mean, in case you have to go.
Not because
How am I gonna repay you?
Don't worry. This happens a lot.
I meant the exam. [chuckles]
I got a nine point five score.
That's great!
Well, look, if you wanna
pay it forward for real then,
recommend me.
I'm going to need
to tutor as much as possible
to pay for my move to Mexico City.
M Mexico City?
Yep.
Um, got accepted to UNAM.
[chuckles faintly]
Congratulations!
- Thanks.
- Yes.
Well, I think I
- Uh, are you sure?
- Yeah, it's time to go.
- Well
- Okay.
- good luck.
- Same. Thanks.
- See you later.
- Bye.

MAX WHERE ARE YOU?
WE NEED TO TALK.
