The Manny (2023) s01e01 Episode Script

[upbeat music playing]
You're just going to love
being their nanny.
I mean, they're absolute angels.
So well-behaved.
-[phone ringing]
-I'm sorry. Go ahead.
[sighs] I'm gonna be at least
15 minutes late to the presentation.
Stop it, Santiago! Leave me alone!
Santiago! San
Santiago, stop it! Santiago, stop!
What's the matter with you, Santiago?
Oh, come on! She started it
when she put my shoes in the toilet.
No! Mama, you know I wouldn't do that!
Okay, you're grounded.
Santiago, stop that now!
Don't, Santiago! Santiago! Ahh!
[grunting]
Oh, no, I'm sorry, it was meant for Sofía!
No, please, stay!
Don't take it personally.
He just wanted you
to try a piece of the cake.
I've gotta get to a meeting at work!
-[door slams]
-[boy] Mmm!
-Leo!
-Mmm!
[woman sighs]
So, I can't get there.
[whimsical music playing]
-[roars]
-[gasps]
-I'm sorry, my bad. I'm sorry.
-[panting]
Don't No, no, no, no.
[babysitter] You can tell your Mama
that I quit!
Uh No, no, no, please forgive me,
Señor Rizo, I'm on my way now.
It's just something that I had
to clear up at the bank.
Uh, yup.
[inhales deeply]
A little misunderstanding.
Um, so, do you have any experience
with children who are a little naughty?
[gasps, yelps]
I'm sorry.
I I swear it's only plastic. I swear!
[laughs]
Leo!
Señor Rizo, no, I can't go.
-I'm not giving it back! Nope
-Gimme me my phone!
Did all the board members confirm
they'll be at my papa's farewell lunch?
Yeah.
So, are you excited about
taking command of the company?
Almost. I still need to finish
my financial proposal
that I'll pitch to the board,
and I need a new nanny.
[gasps] Leo!
Oh! Leo!
Jeez!
Get out of that kitchen already!
I'll see you at the office, okay?
How many times do I have to say it?
You're gonna burn down the house.
It was just an experiment, Mama.
No one wants to live past forty anyways.
Well, you should.
But apparently you don't.
Because for two weeks now,
he won't eat his lunch.
No, now he only eats these sausages.
Have you seen the deli package?
And let me read you the ingredients.
-You can't even read yet.
-I learned over a year ago.
He used the text messages
on your cell phone to learn.
Traitor!
Santiago, I'm going to tell Mama,
I'm going to tell Papa
Oh, what am I gonna do with these kids?
[breathes deeply]
No, no, no, no, no,
I'm not into parenting.
And both of us know I don't like kids.
And if you try to force it,
you'll be looking into a new housecleaner
and a cook as well.
[scoffs] No worries, but thanks, Martita.
You remember the last time
you had the kids?
You let Leo sneak out
and forgot to pick Sofía up,
so we had to get her
from school at 8:00 at night.
-Hmm. [sighs]
-[doorbell rings]
So, that should
be our new nanny. [inhales deeply]
Please oh please, let her
be attentive and delicate.
Eh, eh, ah! Please don't tell her
about all the nannies
that didn't want to work for us.
Okay?
Okay.
[softly] We gotta tell her everything.
-[Leo slurping]
-No. Sh!
[happy music playing]
Good morning.
Oh, great. [exhales sharply]
Uh, I'm so glad you came.
I need you to work on my garden,
but then I
No, I was sent here by
your old nanny, Romina.
I thought the job was, you know,
taking care of the little children.
Romina told me that she would send,
uh, Gaby, her friend's goddaughter
Uh, godson. I'm Gabriel, ma'am.
Gabriel Padilla.
It's a pleasure.
[exhales sharply]
[theme song playing]
THE MANNY
Uh, I'm sorry,
but I was actually waiting for a
different person.
A woman?
That's okay. I get it.
But seriously, you've got
nothing to worry about.
I promise I have tons of experience.
Oh, and I helped to raise
all my own nieces and nephews.
Not to mention,
there's nothing a lasso can't fix.
Um, so wait, you tie the kids up?
[laughs] Yeah,
only when it's absolutely necessary.
And when the ranch's well is full.
A well?! Oh yeah! What an idea!
Don't you even think about it!
'Cause I'm claustrophobic!
Not sure I want to leave
my children with with, uh
someone like you.
But five other nannies said
they didn't want to work here.
Hey, that's not important.
I can't just open my house to some guy.
What would my friends say? [scoffs]
Your friends already know about
all the men you bring home.
That being said,
you've never brought home a cowboy.
-[gasps]
-[Gabriel laughs]
Mama, Santiago's gonna
post a pic of me in my bra!
Santiago, how many times have
I told you not to invade her privacy?
She's just mad 'cause I got proof
that she stuffs her bra, Mom!
Well, maybe you should
stuff some down below,
then you'll be man enough
to talk to the girl you like
because you're a loser
who'll never date anyone!
Sofía, don't. That's mean.
Who's this girl that won't look at you?
You know, not dating, that doesn't
make you a loser, it makes you selective.
Yeah, man. Who's the guy with the wisdom?
Romina's godson, Gaby.
And, you know, the smartest move here
is the opposite of that.
You can post
your sister's picture and all,
but, well, the girl you like
will think you're creepy, dude.
Well I think he means it's bad to
expose a person, especially your sister.
[Gabriel] Yes.
Uh, thanks, dude.
Well, hurry up, you have to get
to school or you're gonna be late.
Hey, hey, hey! Ch-ch-ch-ch!
So you're gonna take your sister's bra to
school to make you look cool, or what?
I swear, I had no idea that I had it!
This isn't what a woman wants.
You just gotta talk with them,
and listen to what they tell you.
Let 'em know what's in here.
Don't be afraid to say,
"You're the star that lights up my night."
Make her feel special, you know?
You don't want her thinking
you flirt with everybody.
You owe me one.
That would've been a bad look. Trust me.
Uh, and, thanks for
helping my son with the girl.
Well, I bribed him to
convince you to bring me on board.
-[phone rings]
-One second. Can you start now?
On probation.
Um, Martha, can you please
show him where he'll be staying?
Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes.
I'm coming. I'm on my way.
I need all the info
on the current accounts for the meeting.
Right this way, handsome.
[chuckles] All right.
-Just say where, beautiful!
-[Martha] Follow me.
[Mexican music playing]
-[woman] Yes.
-[man] Take care of those, please.
Cousin! You look gorgeous.
You really get prettier by the day.
[inhales deeply]
You can quit the fake compliments.
My Papa still hasn't decided
who will succeed him.
I'm aware. Do I have to remind you,
I'm an executive partner
just like you are?
Yeah, but, you don't
put in nearly as much work as I do.
Uh, so I wouldn't tell too many people.
[laughs] I do have one recommendation.
Try not to be so rough with everyone
or you'll never get married
[gasps] Oh, sorry! Forgive me, I
That's right, you already had Joaquin,
then he left you for Mich,
who's probably what, half your age?
Um, yeah, but that really
doesn't make any difference to me.
That reminds me.
Why are you here? It must be pay day.
Actually, your Papa called me in.
Apparently, he wants
to discuss some issue,
and he wanted me to come in to to help.
Oh, he must need the toilet plunged.
That sounds about right.
It's definitely man's work.
Shit that a woman as refined as you
wouldn't want to unclog,
But what choice do I have when,
and this is dead serious here,
your Papa could lose it all.
What are you talking about?
I really can't say.
See you around, cuz.
[phone ringing]
-Hello, Pa.
-Where are you?
What? I already told you.
I said I'd be in Guadalajara.
You kicked me out, right?
What choice did I have?
You're my one and only son, Gabriel.
I trusted you, and you blew it.
Yeah, I left so I wouldn't
make things worse.
And you didn't even take your truck.
I don't know what you're thinking.
Hey, Don Mario, if you want this,
go ahead and take it!
I just want to do things differently,
but you won't allow it.
What happened the last time, Gaby?
We went with
your alternative feeding nonsense,
the pigs didn't reach their proper weight
and I lost a lot of money.
And, oh, it's the perfect timing,
when the bank's trying to steal the ranch.
I assigned you one task
and you couldn't deliver.
I always make good on promises.
Okay, but I never agreed to
doing everything how you wanted.
However you want to keep score,
you screwed me over.
Listen, I have to go
before my pacemaker explodes.
Okay, Pa.
Love you much. You take care.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, bye.
[horse neighing]
[pensive music playing]
HEY! - EXCLUSIVE
JIMENA LEMUS - "WILL SHE BE THE NEW CEO
OF FINANCIERA LEMUS?"
I just ran into that stupid-ass Rogelio.
He told me that
our agency's having problems.
I thought that we were doing great since
you brought in all those new clients.
Well, honestly,
I don't know what he was saying.
[phone chimes]
[Gabriel] Waiting for the kiddos
to come back from school.
Oh, that's right.
God, I still have to get a nanny ASAP!
[woman] Another, already? Why?
This is why.
[gasps]
My former nanny said
she was sending her friend's kid.
And why would I think
she would send her godson?
Maybe he'll babysit me.
I'm not sure he should
be babysitting anyone.
This guy would tie-up
his nieces and nephews at his ranch.
He probably couldn't find a job,
so Romina stuck me with him.
You know, I personally think you should
have a man around your house more.
Especially when he looks that good.
There's my lovely daughter! [laughs]
-Hi, Papa!
-Mmm!
How's everything going
with my surprise farewell?
Ah, everything's ready,
but it's not a surprise now.
[laughs] That's my girl.
Did you write my speech down?
Uh, yeah, except you haven't
actually told us who the president
Who you're actually
appointing as president.
That part is a surprise. [chuckles]
Yeah. Um, I saw Rogelio.
[inhales deeply]
Is there something I should know?
No, he's taking over the account
for Dos Caminos.
They owe us quite a lot,
The future of the agency, and us,
possibly, depend on this payment.
It could even get violent.
Dos Caminos? What? That was
supposed to be my account though.
You just finish that speech, honey.
-I'll send it later on.
-Hmm. Well, thanks.
Thank you!
-You're gonna win, I can feel it.
-[phone chimes]
Oh, no, no, no, no, no!
Sofía posted something to Instagram.
So what?
What do you mean? Her posting
anything with some random guy
when I just got divorced.
I mean, it looks bad.
Who is this man I let into my house?
And what a man! [chuckles]
No, there's nothing wrong
with that manny right there.
Well, I tried to use
that "bright star" line on Tania today,
but I just made a fool of myself.
Tania doesn't even know he exists.
She'll probably be
at grandpa's retirement fiesta
because her papa works for Grandpa.
Hey, wait, how do you know?
Because she posted on TikTok,
said she'd rather die but has to go.
Sounds like we need to get you ready
to ask her out.
-No, no, no way.
-What?
In Tepa, you don't leave a party
without a girlfriend.
In where?
Tepatitlán, Jalisco.
Is that, like, on Maps?
Yes, of course it's on
That's not important.
We need some nice threads
for your brother.
Oh please, that's too difficult.
Even if you do, how are you going to
cover up his little sponge-bob arms?
At least my face
doesn't break out like yours does.
Oh, come on, my complexion is so clear!
-[both yelling]
-What are you doing?
How's that useful?
You guys are like two fighting cocks!
What's wrong with you?
You have to learn how to get along.
-Or you're gonna leave us in a well?
-No, come on, you guys.
But can I tell you something?
Some day when you're both old,
you'll want someone to push you around
in your wheelchair, hmm?
-[gasps]
-[sprinkler spraying]
-Leo!
-Leo! What are you doing?
I'm putting out a fire!
-No, no, buddy! Put that down!
-Leo!
[Sofía] Stop it now, Leo!
-[Gabriel] Jeez! Hold on!
-[Sofía] Leo!
-[Gabriel] Get the stuff!
-[Leo] I can't turn it off!
Let's see, Joaquín. Please, could you
please take our kids this evening?
Could you explain to me why
someone's choking out our son?
I mean, what is that?
We're not even legally divorced yet,
but you have some guy living there?
Listen, Gabriel was sent from Romina
with the sole purpose of being our nanny
but nothing more.
And besides,
you're already living with someone!
It's just for a couple of days,
just until I can find a new nanny.
Really wish I could help.
We both know I love our children.
Uh, but unfortunately,
I'm out of town with Mich
and we're opening up another gym.
Oh, a sixth that you're setting up
to help out Mich.
[chuckles] Uh, how many
can she really handle at once?
Said the girl who wouldn't enter a gym
even if her life depended on it.
Oh, hello, Mich! And, goodbye.
I don't understand what we're doing.
What kind of clothing
are we supposed to find in this place?
Other than aprons covered in flowers.
Oh, you'd be surprised.
But the other reason we're here
is so we can say hi to someone.
Are you ready?
-Ro-Ro-Ro-Ro-Romina!
-[all laugh]
What are you brats doin' here?
Let me guess. You ran away again?
I wish. Mama's been going crazy
ever since you left.
-Can you come back to us, please?
-Oh, I'm sorry.
Or take us with you.
You better get used to it
because I won't return.
I always dreamed of opening a store
that sold products from Gabriel's ranch.
-[gasps] Gabriel
-Wait a sec. You have a ranch?
Well, it's actually my papa's,
but I'd rather not talk about it.
Why's that?
Uh, let's just say Gabriel,
according to his papa, doesn't act right.
Are you gay?
No. Not that there's anything wrong
with being gay. [chuckles]
[sighs] Look, godmother
Oh, no worries, my son.
You're the greatest godson
in the whole world.
Mmm.
We're still gonna change the world, right?
Yep, that's the plan. So we will.
I know what it feels like.
My Mama hates that I always wear pink.
Pink comes in
thousands of shades though, right?
Well, maybe tomorrow
you could try a different color.
But first, let's find Santiago something
to wear to impress that future girlfriend.
-Wow, that's so disgusting!
-[Gabriel laughs] What's the matter, Leo?
That's how they make sausage.
-You've never seen them make sausage?
-No!
-Yes.
-You're makin' it up.
Maybe we can get a picture.
Can we take a picture?
Yeah, absolutely.
-Stand in front of it. I'll take it.
-Oh, no! My God!
So, how's it been going, son?
Sh. Jimena said we'll do a trial period.
She won't give me the job easily, but
Well, you're going to have to live there.
To make things right with your papa,
you'll need to do whatever it takes.
And I mean whatever.
[pensive music playing]
[woman] No, there's not a single nanny
available in the whole city.
Did you ask Joaquín to help you?
[gasps] Oh, no, no, no,
you two end up getting it on whenever
you're in the room together.
Ha-ha. You're so funny!
That only happened, like, one
Um, like, one time, okay?
No Two Three at the absolute most.
And no, no, he can't. Why's that?
Because he's on a trip with Mich.
Let it go and try to relax, yeah?
You're going to have to trust
the handsome countryman
to control your wildness.
That's exactly what the problem is.
He's a male nanny plus he's hot.
I can picture myself on the cover
of Guadalajara's Social Club.
"Yeah, Jimena Lemus moves a man in!"
And yes, he is very handsome,
but he's also a savage.
Who thinks it's a good idea
to show kids a corpse?
He's probably hog-tying the kids
to get them ready for bed.
[coughs intentionally]
[woman] Ooh, that sounds fun,
he can tie me up too.
-Oh, hey! Hey, Gaby!
-We'll talk later, Brenda.
Leo is already asleep.
I didn't even use my lasso.
Um, I'm sorry, Gabriel.
Sorry that you heard that.
-[inhales sharply] So
-Which part is that?
When you called me a savage or handsome?
[gentle music playing]
'Cause it's not the first time
I've heard that.
-Hmm?
-Mmm.
That I'm a savage.
But still, I wanted to apologize
for the photo earlier, Jime.
Mmm.
It's Well, um
It's just that, well, you have
you have to understand
You know, tomorrow's lunch
is super important to me
because, um, you see
Uh, I'm hoping my papa appoints me
as the finance agency president.
The president?
Oh, is that what you do? Financing?
-[cutlery clatters]
-Yup, that's it exactly.
Wow! You're not screwin' around.
It must be very important, what you do.
More than that, a finance company
can help the whole community out.
And that's what I dream about.
Though, most of the time
my papa doesn't really get it.
I've worked very, very hard to try to
have things handled with a different
In a new style.
Oh, I see.
I know perfectly how hard that is.
-And more than you'd imagine, I bet.
-Ah.
Well, then, what can I do for you?
Um, well, my kids are who need you.
Help me with them.
Because, um, you know, my work
takes a lot of time, so I can't be there.
Yeah, you won't have to worry
about the kids.
-I mean, that's why I was hired, right?
-Oh. Yeah. [laughs]
-And I am sorry about earlier.
-No, no, forget it.
I'm also used to hearing
that I'm a handsome guy.
[laughs awkwardly]
Well, goodnight. Um
[goofy music playing]
[Martha] Mmm.
[exhales sharply]
Mmm.
-Mmm?
-Nah. Well, okay! [laughs]
[Martha chuckles]
-[Gabriel] Mmm.
-[Martha] Mm-hmm.
[Mexican music playing]
[Santiago grunts]
I really don't think
this is going to impress anyone.
Let alone Tania.
Don't get desperate, okay?
You're doing it very well.
You're learning very quickly.
How about if this time
you think of the lamp as Tania
and you're going to catch her
with your love lasso.
But, you know, I'll probably miss Tania,
and she'll just run away.
Hey, don't underestimate your love lasso.
Here, try it again. Then we have to
get ready for our big lunch, don't we?
-Okay.
-Got it?
You get the hang of this,
I'll teach you the golden lasso.
-Two loops.
-[Santiago] One loop. Two loops.
There you go!
[sighs in frustration]
Ah. You almost got it.
[phone ringing]
What's up, Pa?
Arete is nowhere to be found.
The guys said you took her with you.
Of course I brought her with me.
You were gonna kill her.
Gabriel, if she can't breed,
she's useless.
And we can't keep animals
that won't produce, now can we?
It's bad enough those finance
agency bastards are hunting us down.
I don't care if they work
with the government.
They're not getting my ranch.
Papa, please don't do anything dumb, okay?
-If you need me to come back there
-[scoffs] No, no, no, no, no.
-Thanks. I can take care of myself.
-[disconnects call]
[whimsical music playing]
What the
You really think
this will get Tania to notice me?
There's no way she'll miss you now.
That's for sure.
Yeah, because you look awesome.
Don't forget, that what's important is
making a great
second first impression on her.
Just remember
[both] There is nothing you can't fix
with a lasso.
He knows it already.
-Do I really have SpongeBob arms?
-Totally.
Nothing wrong with that.
Long arms let you give Tania
extra big hugs, you know?
I'm gonna go see if Leo's ready.
[jazz music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[Jimena] How are you? How are you doing?
Nice to meet you. Pleased to see you.
-Thank you for being here.
-Yeah, great. Thanks.
-Relax. Everything's just perfection.
-Yes, it is.
Papa looks super happy.
[smooth R&B music playing]
Oh my, he looks even better in person.
Manny to your right.
I wanna tell you, baby ♪
What you mean to me ♪
-Hello!
-Hello! Everything looks really nice. Wow!
Nice to meet you. Call me Brenda.
So, are you single?
-Good to meet you, as well.
-Mm-hmm.
A bolo!
Uh, why did you all dress like that?
I thought I'd try a new color out.
I chose this.
And I want to make a good impression.
This is how I always dress.
Hey, kiddos. Sofi, Santi
-Hey.
-[Lemus] Leo!
-Nice to meet you, sir. I'm Gabriel.
-Ah. Good to meet you.
-Ernesto Lemus.
-Good to meet you.
I know that the kids were very excited
about coming to congratulate their mother
in her, you know, new position.
[laughs] Well, I see what you're doin'.
Good one, but I'm keeping it a surprise.
However, I'm so happy
our Jimena has met a guy
that can finally help her
with looking after the children.
Papa, Gabriel isn't my boyfriend,
and I'm not looking
for a boyfriend right now, either.
-Mm-hmm.
-'Cause, well, my work is everything.
Enough that this year
I took our company to the next level.
-And that is really great.
-[man] Don Ernesto!
I'm sorry, I've gotta run.
[whimsical music playing]
He's going to appoint that moron Rogelio.
-Who is Rogelio?
-[sighs] My cousin.
He's trying to get rid of me,
so he's sucking up to my dad,
and it's working.
Coming here just to say hello
seems sorta dumb.
I wanna wear black now.
It would go with the scene.
Kids, this is not your fault.
Grandpa doesn't trust me, okay?
Well, I'm just going to go greet
some more guests, then probably
throw myself off a cliff somewhere.
[whimsical music continues]
Tania just got here! Now what?
Go and greet her!
What are you waiting for?
Hey, if you want to look extra cool,
bro, just just lift up your chest,
grab ahold of your belt,
wear a hat.
[indistinct chatter]
There you go.
Uh, what's up, Tania?
Welcome to the party.
I had no idea it was a costume party.
Hold up, are you for real?
-[laughs]
-He looks like such a dork!
Wow, I seriously need a drink
right now, dude.
No, no, no, no, wait. Tania, Tania, Tania.
There's something about Santi
I need to tell you.
Oh yeah? Is he a member
of a Christian rock band?
-[laughs]
-No. Look, my brother's not normal.
And, I mean,
he'll never stop surprising you.
Pretty sure you're right about that.
Well, I'm gonna get a drink.
Thanks for at least trying to help me.
Let's just say that when we get old,
you're gonna be pushing my wheelchair.
[both laugh]
-[speaks indistinctly]
-Oh, thank you.
What happened, Leo?
We can't let Rogelio
take the job from Mama.
She deserves it more than anyone.
Maybe we could convince your grandpa
your mama is the best option for the job.
But how? Grandpa doesn't listen to us.
I don't know. We have to think
of a way to make him listen.
[Ernesto] Hello, everyone. Good afternoon.
[all applauding]
I want to thank you all so much
for being here.
This get together
is especially significant to me,
so I'm glad you're all here.
-As many of you already know
-Go on. Go on.
today, I formally announce my retirement
from the very same agency
that I just happened to start
when, one day, I decided to lend
my older brother my savings,
may he rest in peace,
all so he could get this bike
that was his dream.
[all applauding]
Today's special for my successor as well.
Since I'm retiring,
I had to be sure to choose someone
I could trust with this company,
which has been so integral in my life.
-And now
-Wait! Hold on!
-I have something to say
-[mic feedback]
Jimena, my mother,
is the most hard-working woman ever,
and she's also a really cool mom.
[guests] Aw.
-[all applauding]
-[man] Bravo! Bravo!
Which is why
she should be the new president
of the finance agency, not Rogelio.
-I like it!
-[guests cheering]
Very funny, you naughty brat.
Now get down from there!
Rogelio,
don't call my daughter a brat, okay?
[Rogelio] Get her down from there,
this is a serious event.
And thank you for your support.
Thank you, huh?
Such nice words
from my dear granddaughter.
Look, I'm sorry about this, Jimena.
I'm appointing Rogelio.
[lasso swishing]
-[grunts]
-[guests exclaim, laugh]
-[Rogelio grunting]
-Santiago!
[grunting]
Rogelio, right? Nice to meet you.
You all right?
You think you can just
boycott my promotion?
Well, there you have it, folks.
There really is nothing a lasso can't fix.
Good night!
[beeps]
Gaby!
Leo, no!
[beeps]
-[Jimena] No! No!
-[gusts clamoring]
No! Leo! No! Leo!
Turn that off! No, no, no!
-Please, stop, everyone! Oh God!
-[objects clatter]
Oh no! No, no, no! No, please!
-No!
-[guests screaming]
Uncle, look at the mess they all made!
Jimena, can you please do something,
for crying out loud?!
-[guests screaming]
-[gasps]
Santi, there's Tania! It's now or never!
Tania! You're the star
that lights up my night.
-[Jimena] They're going to turn off!
-[Gabriel] Leo, turn them off!
Right now, Leo, off!
[guests clamoring]
I'm sorry.
[whimsical music playing]
I understand
that you wanted to help me out,
but lassoing people is not okay, guys.
-And you soaked everyone!
-Jime, no, don't scold them.
You shouldn't blame them.
Everything was my fault.
How on earth could you let them
lasso Rogelio in front of everybody?
He was talking smack
about your kids the whole party.
Stop, everyone!
Everybody go to your room.
You're all grounded.
Not you, Gabriel.
I still wanna talk to you.
Jime, I really don't think it's fair
that Rogelio jerk gets to steal your dream
of being president of the company
your own father started.
And why? Huh? He's a man?
Of course, and my papa
won't want me to be the president
now that we've sent
the whole board home soaking wet.
Yeah, I know.
And that wasn't part of the plan.
It's unacceptable what Leo did.
Well, p-please don't take this personally,
but this just isn't going to work,
I'm sorry.
Could you please button your shirt up?
Your perfect abs are just
I can't exactly fire you
with your six-pack staring into my soul.
Wait, I'm getting fired?
[sighs]
I'm sorry, Gabriel,
but I'm sure you're a great cowboy,
um, but that's not what
my children need in a nanny.
I need someone that
A woman, right?
My children need someone maternal,
who will be attentive
to their needs, and affectionate.
To be the mother I'm not.
I did my best. It just wasn't really me.
Because work is what's important now.
["Simplemente Soy" by Ronroneo playing]
How strange.
Papa wants me at the ranch
taking care of pigs,
while yours wants you to stay at home
and take care of kids. What can we do?
I guess trying to change the world
is just asking too much!
I'm still gonna change the world though.
But what about the kids?
Don't they seem different?
And that's that's why
I love being a male nanny.
Because of the kids.
-Wait, are you crying?
-[sniffles] No.
-No, no, I'm not criticizing you
-[Gabriel] I'm not.
Because men don't, and I'm a man.
[song continues]
-May I come in, Santi?
-[Santiago] Sure.
So, hey
What does "you're so grounded"
actually mean?
I don't know. Gaby, you shouldn't
have tried to take all the blame.
Not true, 'cause we're a team. Right?
Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo! Yee-haw!
Tell me, was the cowboy attire
helpful at all?
It wasn't.
She hasn't even posted a single tweet.
And getting ignored is
worse than being trolled.
Just remember, it's probably just
'cause she's three years older than you.
-[Leo] I had a nightmare!
-[Gabriel] What happened, Leo buddy?
There's a pig-headed Rogelio hiding
in my closet.
Oh, yikes! You want me
to give you my lasso?
Soon as he shows up again,
you tie him up, all right?
-Are you leaving?
-[Santiago] Yeah, did Mama fire you?
Actually, she never gave me the job.
'Cause you don't wanna
stay either, do you?
Of course I wanna stay.
You guys are freaking awesome. Hmm?
But I have to go back to Tepa
because, well, it didn't work out.
Are you going back to your ranch?
I don't know, Leo,
because I kinda let my papa down,
and he's not happy with me at all.
But I promise you,
I will do whatever it takes
to come back here as soon as possible.
And, if you want, we'll all hang out.
We'll all miss you so much.
[Gabriel] I'll miss you too.
["Simplemente Soy" continues playing]
-[Leo] Avalanche!
-[all laugh]
[Sofía] No, Leo!
[all laughing]
-[Leo] Oh well!
-[all laughing]
["Simplemente Soy" continues playing]
[Jimena exhales]
[sighs]
Jimena
What brings you in so early, my girl?
I just wanted to apologize for everything.
My kids taught me a great lesson.
And more than my children,
it was their male nanny.
Male nanny?
I'll explain later.
There's something I need to say.
Look, I'm sorry that I'm not a man.
And I'm sorry I can't always
do things the way you say.
And I'm so sorry
that I love working and that
that sometimes I feel like crying
when I get frustrated, angry or
or anything.
But it's my dream to be
the company's president.
And you know that I'm the best option
for this kind of work.
I don't think it's fair what you're doing.
You won't give me the promotion
because I'm a woman.
No, that's not right.
I just don't want you
to stay single forever.
And a female exec like you,
it could scare the men away.
You don't get to choose
if a man is by my side.
-That's what you think.
-Still, it's my decision.
[phones ringing]
But you know what?
Either way, I don't want you
to worry about this because
I'm bowing out of the race.
I plan to look for
other opportunities elsewhere.
I love you, Papa.
[phone ringing]
Jimena
[sighs loudly]
I did everything I could think of
to get her to hire me.
I mean, I even cried.
But nothing worked, so
Oh, Gabriel, you can't give up so easily.
Your papa won't accept it.
I'm aware.
For now, I'll go back home to Tepa,
and I'll see what I can do from there.
I don't know who's trying to take
our ranch, but I'm gonna put a stop to it.
God bless you, my son.
-I'll give you a call when I get there.
-Hmm.
[gentle music playing]
-[Santiago] No!
-[Sofía] Eat it!
-[Santiago] You eat it!
-[Sofía] No. I
Hey, what are you doing home so early?
[Leo] Yeah, Mama. Are you sick?
Well, I just quit my job.
So, I'm unemployed.
Mmm.
[phone ringing]
[chuckles]
I told you so!
[chuckles]
So, I quit my job, and you two
are the best of friends now?
Tania just posted
that she had a blast at the party.
And I convinced her
to go out with me on a date.
And last week,
Tania wouldn't even look at him.
I'm gonna push your wheelchair,
like, every day.
What? A A wheelchair?
Martha, did you put strawberries
in my lunch today?
-I sure did!
-[Jimena] What
What was wrong with the lunch I packed?
It isn't always the best
for a growing boy like me.
-See you after school, Ma.
-[Sofía] Bye!
-Bye!
-Bye!
[chuckles]
Wow! I can't remember them being so happy.
Yeah, and that Gaby was
only here for one whole day.
[phone chimes]
[Ernesto] I decided to give you the chance
to compete for the presidency.
[gasps]
My Papa's actually considering
me for the position of President!
-Oh.
-[phone ringing]
Hey, what's up, girl?
You need to get your ass back
to this place, like now.
-Before your papa regrets
-Hold on, I'm not getting it.
You're going to compete
against Rogelio over the presidency,
So get that pretty little ass back here
while your Papa still wants
to have this little chat.
[sputtering] But I can't just
Because I
There isn't anyone
to take care of the kids.
-[sighs]
I just got rid of the nanny!
And he was so darn hot too!
[breathes deeply] I can't believe
I'm actually gonna admit this,
but it's true.
I need that manny to help me out.
-[inhales deeply] Know where he's at?
-Catching a bus, an hour ago.
Hey, you can still catch him.
His bus doesn't leave for another hour.
Can I afford
to keep Papa waiting for me?
Don't worry, I got it.
Bring back that manny of yours.
And say "Hey, everything's cool now"?
Um, honey, you can say anything.
Like, tell him it's your lady times
and that's why
you were emotional yesterday.
Oh, and the cowboy left
this crate full of his clothes here, too.
Anything will work.
Just make it snappy, Jimena.
Got it. Okay.
You're the best. Bye!
-[gasps] Oh! Thank you, Martita!
-Mmm.
[groovy music playing]
Thank you.
[indistinct announcement over PA]
[PA chimes]
[woman over PA] Passengers traveling
to Tepatitlán, please go to bay seven.
-Uh Hello, um, the bus to Tepatitlán?
-Yeah, it's leaving in just a minute.
Please, these belong to a passenger,
and if I can go around,
I swear it'll only take a second.
-Let her go ahead, Johnny.
-Oh, thanks so much.
Thank you. Thanks.
[bus horn blaring]
[bus engine whirring]
[sighs]
All passengers are now onboard. 3-7-4
[continues speaking indistinctly]
[breathing heavily]
You forgot to bring
your weird little crate of clothing.
Thought you might need it.
Yes, yes. I had to get off the bus
when I saw you running with all this.
My papa is going to give me the chance
to compete for the presidency.
["No Hay Nadie Más"
by Sebastián Yatra plays]
You know, I think
we might just be able to change the world,
if we work together.
I really need you more than ever.
And my children
really enjoy you as their nanny.
So, if you want to stay,
there's a place in the house
for your wooden box.
Thanks, Jime. I don't think
you're aware how much this box means
to Arete.
[song continues]
[squeals and grunts softly]
-[exhales sharply]
-[Gabriel laughs]
Can Arete come?
She'd really like to stay too.
Uh, yes, she can stay too.
She can come too, okay? She'll like us.
["No Hay Nadie Más" continues playing]
[magical tinkling]
[snorting]
Well, then, Arete, I guess
we'd better get back to work.
[snorting]
You burned down my warehouse.
Is that all you got, you motherfuckers?
If you don't pay us, then we're going to
burn your fucking ranch down too.
Go ahead, burn down the fucking ranch.
I won't let you take it.
So send everything you've got.
[pensive music playing]
Do you think Jimena will handle him?
[breathes deeply]
[fire crackling and blazing]
[sighs]
