[exhaling]
[inhales deeply]
-[laughs]
-[Matías] Mmm.
[kissing]
My gorgeous girl. So pretty.
[chuckles]
[yawning]
[gasps]
Leo.
Honey, what happened?
-What are you doing here?
-[grunts]
What's wrong, sweetie?
I had a nightmare last night,
so I came to keep you guys company.
Oh, what time did that happen to you?
When did you come in here?
When you turned off all of the lights,
then I thought, "Oh good,
they're going to sleep."
Ah. Oh.
Um, all right, come with me, shorty.
Let's go put you in bed.
You better stay there.
-Right there. Don't move.
-[Matías] I'll be waiting for you.

COPYING ELEMENTS TO "MATÍAS"
[computer beeps]
[Jimena sighs]
Forgive me.
-My love.
-You know children.
-[chuckles]
-Is he all right?
-Yeah, he's fine.
-Mmm.
-I'm gonna go shower.
-Mmm.
Wouldn't you like to join me?
You know I'd follow you
to the ends of the earth.
Anywhere, darling.
-Don't keep me waiting.
-Right away.
-I'm waiting.
-On my way.
[door slides open]
Be right there.
[shower running]
[Jimena] Baby!
[Matías] I'm coming.
I'm coming, my love. Wait for me.
[theme song playing]
THE MANNY
[Gabriel] We're going to return
the necklace to Jimena, okay?
So, what do you think, hat or no hat?
-[snorts]
-You're right, no hat.
Let's go for a ride.
You just remember to be cute,
and loving, and beautiful, as always.
-Leaving already?
-Yeah, there's something I have to go do.
Okay. Well, don't forget that we have
that call with the electric company
to check the final details
on the public bid.
-I'll stop by the office later.
-Okay.
-And after that, let's get a drink.
-Well, why not two?
-Even better.
-And some carne en su jugo.
Shh! Poor thing.
[Arete snorts]
[Gabriel laughs]
-See you later.
-Bye.
Oh, hey, whose necklace is that?
Ah. It belongs to Jimena.
She, uh must've dropped it on accident.
Panchito is going to Guadalajara
to run some errands right now.
If you want, he can deliver it,
so we can go to the office.
No, it's on the way anyway.
Besides, Arete's dying
to go for a walk. See?
-Yeah, I should go.
-Yeah, okay, okay.
I'll see you later.
[teacher] Don't make that face.
This is not an exam.
After all the sessions
you've completed this year,
I think you should be ready
to answer these questions.
Then we'll meet and talk one-on-one
to see what your interests are
and the career you might prefer.
[students groaning, murmuring]
Also, this week, I want you
to interview a person that you admire.
Like someone that can help and
guide you on this career path later.
-[students groan, murmur]
-[student] What?
Oh, Gaby, you know
you can always come eat here.
You know I like trying to fatten you up.
Yeah, thanks, Martha. I'm thrilled,
but I don't have time for all this.
Hey, I don't buy the food.
So you can relax, all right?
-All right, then.
-Yes.
[Arete snorting]
-Arete!
-Mmm!
-Are you leaving her with me?
-Yes.
[Martha chuckles]
Hey, wait a minute.
Shouldn't you be attending school, Leo?
I don't know.
There was a field trip today
Leo didn't want to go on.
I'm in the middle of a case I'm working,
and no good detective
would let his investigation fall apart.
-Can I take her to play in my room?
-Yeah, of course. Go ahead.
[chuckles]
I'll take care of her.
What do you have there?
-It's Arete.
-What's that?
[grunts softly]
[Gabriel] Hello.
Gabriel, what are you doing here,
besides eating all that food?
-Well, I came to drop off Arete with Leo.
-[Jimena] Okay.
But good morning.
-Good morning.
-[chuckles]
What's this that the school went
on a trip, but Leo didn't want to?
Lately, he's afraid of everything,
you know?
He didn't want to go to the school thing.
His friend had a sleepover. He didn't go.
I honestly think it's because
of all the changes.
[tapping on cup]
Excuse me one second.
-Sure.
-Look at this.
-Eh?
-Wow!
-Hmm.
-Well, thanks.
[whimsical music playing]
[exhales]
-You have a little foam.
-Oh.
[chuckles]
Oh yeah. I brought you something.
[gasps] You didn't.
Thank you. I thought for sure
I would never see it again.
-I found it by the lake.
-No.
[sighs]
Thanks.
I'll have it fixed immediately
so this never happens again.
Good morning.
Morning, my love.
Honey, do you think
we could change the pillows?
Because yours are so hard
I feel like I've sprained my neck.
Yeah, we'll swap 'em out.
Matías was telling me that
you're developing a real estate project,
and it occurred to me
that maybe it could benefit
from a sewage treatment plan.
That's what my partner Violeta
and I are doing.
In fact, why don't you stop by
the office here in Guadalajara,
and I'll show you what we can offer you?
-[Matías] Hmm.
-Oh, yeah, yeah.
Are you sure we won't be too busy later?
No. Yes, yes, yes,
we have time at twelve o'clock.
Okay. Then, after twelve o'clock,
we'll figure it out and go.
[Gabriel] Hmm.
[Jimena] Okay, great. Bye.
-Tasty breakfast?
-It's really delicious.
Bye.
Bye.
[whimsical music continues]
[sighs]
[Nadia] You haven't eaten at all.
What's wrong, Sofía?
Ever since my birthday,
you've been acting kinda weird.
We're starting to worry.
Abel kissed me at the party
without my consent.
And I still don't know
how I feel about it.
Obviously, what he did, it was bad,
and that's why I pushed him and he fell
into your mother's tulips, Nadia.
But I think I wanted to kiss.
He still should've asked
for your consent first.
I know, right?
Anyway, he can't have feelings for me.
We're good friends.
Yeah, but what's that
have to do with these?
It's a protest against the male gaze.
To make Abel realize that he has to see me
on the inside and not just the outside.
And it's really clear to me that
oversize fashion is trending right now.
[chuckles]
-[knocking on door]
-[Romina] I'm coming, Gabriel. Calm down.
-How did you know it was me?
-Because I'm a witch. You knew that.
Mmm.
[sighs] Come in.
-I got everything you put on the list.
-That's great, son.
Put it on the table.
Huh?
What's with the pictures?
Again with those? They weren't there
when I was here the other day.
Things change sometimes, my son.
And that's what I'm seeing now.
-It had been a while since I saw Jimena.
-Right.
Because, for starters,
Violeta comes back as if
she had never left in the first place,
and then, once I'm perfectly happy,
and no longer controlled by
all of these thoughts about
Jimena.
[sighs] Let's just drop it.
Oh yeah, the other day,
Matías threatened me too.
Hmm. I don't trust that guy even a little.
-[laughs]
-What?
-It's not jealousy.
-Hmm.
It's just that even Leo
said he distrusts him.
Ah.
Would you stop with all of that?
This guy isn't the person who he says
he is, or he's hiding a secret.
Look, I have a bad feeling about this guy.
I think he's the shadow
I'm seeing between you two.
I don't know.
I don't believe in all that stuff.
Ah.
Believe what you want.
But trust me, you're incredibly jealous.
I better go start the broth,
otherwise the meat won't be done in time.
[Santiago] I have no idea what I wanna be.
Well, I don't need to do
a stupid questionnaire.
I'll go into advertising, same as my papa,
same as my mom, and my brother José Luis.
I don't know either, but I'm going to
go do an interview with my aunt Tata.
She's a journalist,
which sounds kind of cool.
These questions!
Do you have anything
you're passionate about,
that makes you lose track of time?
I have no clue what that would be for me.
Andrés never lets Coco in bed with us.
[scoffs] That's so not true, Pedro.
He is the one that refuses
to wash Coco with her bubbles.
So she stays with me.
-[ringing]
-[Joaquín] Oh, that's my son.
He's real though. Um, not a pet son.
Please excuse me. I won't be long.
[scoffs]
-What's up, Santi?
-[on phone] Hi, Dad.
Can you help me
with an assignment from class?
Santi, buddy, just to be real with you,
I was never good at school.
I know you can handle this.
It's just an interview.
Ah! [laughs]
-[men arguing]
-Okay, okay. I'm a natural at that.
You want to come by the office today
when school gets out?
-M'kay.
-[Joaquín] Okay, see ya.
[Santiago] Let's go.
You guys are lucky.
Dogs don't need help with their homework.
-Right?
-Right.
So who's keeping Coco?
-Me, obviously.
-I will.
-No, no. You got the truck.
-Oh, come on. Why not?
You don't even want her
to sleep in the bed.
-"I want my space."
-Right!
Besides, you're allergic, right?
-"Move, I need to sleep."
-Go cry to your mommy.

ECOSOLUTIONS
TO CHANGE THE WORLD
CHANGE YOURS FIRS
-[Jimena] That quote is very true.
-[laughs] Yes.
Gaby likes that line as well,
but I came up with it.
-Really? That's not true.
-Well, sure.
-We both came up with it
-When?
in biology class.
[Violeta] Okay. He helped with the idea,
but I thought of it. [laughs]
Well, let's be honest,
Violeta has the best ideas.
And the best connections.
We can help you get
the technology and the tools.
Plus, we do all the installations.
Well, that all sounds
very interesting to me,
but right now, we're focusing on the land.
No. No, no, no, no, no, no.
This is exactly the kind of thing
that we need to convince investors
to enter the project.
Send them the plans
and, well, everything they need
to put together a budget.
And, well, welcome to the project.
[Gabriel and Violeta laugh]
-Well, thank you very much.
-This is great.
-Congratulations.
-[Violeta] Thank you.
-[Matías] Congratulations.
-Thank you.
I'm sure you're aware
Jimena gets what she wants.
-That's why she's marrying me.
-[all laugh]
[phone ringing]
-[Jimena] I need to take this.
-Oh, sure, of course.
-Hey. What's up, Pop?
-Hi, sweetheart.
Leo thinks the piglet ate some metal thing
that was in your room.
I don't know. Should I be worried?
It was red. It looked like a candy.
Uh, okay. Um, I'll let Gabriel know.
I gotta go. See you.
[snorting]
Um, Gaby, my dad just told me
that Arete ate a little red metal thing.
Apparently, it was in my room.
My dad wondered if he should be worried.
No, no, no.
Arete, she's eaten worse, believe me.
But still, I'll go to the house
and check on her.
I think that red thingy
was my flash drive.
-What flash drive?
-The one I had in my pocket.
I know I put it in this jacket.
It's too important to lose.
[sighs] Gabriel,
I really need to recover that drive.
-Guess I'm going with you.
-Let's go.
Sure, let's go.
-[door opens]
-Uh
-[Gabriel] Go ahead.
-Hold on a sec.
I'll come with you guys. [chuckles]
[teacher] Good morning, everyone.
I want to introduce you to the new student
joining your classroom.
Her name is Claudia Sánchez.
-[teacher] Thank you, Professor.
-[professor] I'll leave her with you.
[indistinct chatter]
[whimsical music playing]
Why'd she have to be in this class though?
-Hi!
-Hey.
Oh, how cool. We're in the same class.
-Yeah, it's totally the best group here.
-Perfect.
We're doing an activity
if you want to share my book.
Okay, thanks.
I lost Arete. She escaped
when someone opened the door.
The gardener came earlier,
and he was always leaving the door open.
Or maybe it was someone else
who left the door open.
Look, Leo, no need to worry.
Piglets are very adventurous.
Yeah, they're always
sniffing out new adventures
and trying to explore the world.
But that's why I don't go out,
because I might get lost.
No, that'll never happen because
your mom always knows where you are.
That's my job.
So don't you worry.
I'll do everything possible to find Arete.
With tiny legs, how far could she go? Hmm?
Well, let's find that pig.
There's no point in wasting time.
Yeah, you're right about that.
Eh, you and I will go one way,
and you two go the other way.
We can stay in touch by phone.
And we need you here, Leo,
in case she returns.
Okay.
I'll follow you, then,
since you know her best.
Right. Let's go.
-This'll be fun.
-Yep. Let's go.
[whimsical music playing]
So, how long
were you and Gabriel together?
[scoffs]
No. Uh, why do you think that?
He was on the payroll.
He was my kids' manny. [chuckles]
How'd you get that idea?
[sighs] Just a thought. My mistake.
But I I believe you.
And I think that, to be honest,
you're not really his type.
How do you know I'm not?
Oh, come on. Really?
Look what you're wearing,
with your cute little dress
and high heels on and all.
[inhales sharply] Ah, you know what?
All those trees are exactly
what a pig wants.
Drop us off right here. We'll walk.
If you want, you can stay in the car
while I go check real quick.
No, no, no, no, I'm not staying.
I'll I'll go with you.
Okay.
[door alarm pinging]
[Gabriel] So, what's on the flash drive?
The latest version of my project.
-You didn't save it on the cloud?
-God, I wish. I forgot to back it up.
[sighs]
What?
Hopefully Arete hasn't gone potty.
There's not much time left.
We have maybe about 30 minutes to find her
before your flash drive
and her breakfast end up on the
No, no, don't even say it.
-Let's go.
-All right.
[whimsical music continues]
This way.
So, how did you and Jimena meet?
We met at a work party.
The first time I saw her,
I was head over heels.
And ever since that night,
we've been inseparable.
[Gabriel] Hmm.
[kids chattering]
[snorting]
There she is.
Ah, kids, kids, please move along.
Out of the way. Out of the way.
Come on, move it, move it.
[sighs] She's gone.
She probably got spooked.
-Thanks to all these kids.
-[kids] Boo.
Okay. She has to be around here
somewhere. Let's take a look.
[kids laughing]
[Violeta] Are you sure you wouldn't
rather stay in the car?
You know, since you're in those heels.
Can't they get ruined or something?
-[insect buzzing]
-No, I'm fantastic. I don't need anything.
If you say so.
Pigs tend to nest,
so I think Arete is probably looking
for somewhere comfortable and safe.
Especially if she's sick
from what she swallowed, so
[whimsical music playing]
Uh, why don't we try there?
Arete.
Arete!
Nowadays, children have
no respect for adults.
And they don't pay attention.
But didn't you say the other day
children are the most important thing
in the world?
Man, I did say that. [laughs]
You got me there, Gabriel.
I'm not into kids, to be honest with you.
So, how do you manage
with Santi, Sof, and Leo?
Well, those kids are already well-trained.
They don't need an old man.
I plan to get hitched to Jimena,
not to her kids.
Fortunately. Hmm?
[Claudia chuckling]
I think it's time to explain
how things work in this school.
-[Claudia] Yeah, you're right.
-Really?
-Oh, hey, Claudia.
-My friends call me Curly.
Oh yeah, of course.
Look, I came here to tell you that
in this school,
it's really important
to choose your friends carefully.
-Sofía.
-[Sofía] Shh.
Because some people seem like
they're nice, and they're not. Like Abel.
So I'm supposed to hang out
with you instead of him?
Exactly. At least we won't be the ones
who stab you in the back.
Well, listen up, scarecrow.
I don't know what terrible story
you're trying to tell,
but, believe me when I say,
I really can't stand
getting bossed around.
So I decide who
I'm going to hang with or not.
Is that clear?
Now, excuse us. We were trying to talk.
[whimsical music playing]
[exhales deeply]
So, how's a guy like you
come to be a manny for Jimena?
Well, it's kind of a long story.
But let's just say, I wanted independence,
instead of working for my papa.
[curious music playing]
Oh, hey, we lost our piglet.
Have you guys seen a little pig?
[music continues]
-[sighs]
-[phone ringing]
You're not going to answer that?
Go ahead. [chuckles]
It's the bank, you know?
I'm a bit nervous,
so I don't want to talk right now.
Okay.
You mean you owe money?
We all owe somebody, don't we?
And the more you ask for,
the more you then owe to banks.
-Sure.
-And the more you eventually have.
Didn't you know that?
-No, I'm just a manny, so
-[Arete snorting]
There she is!
Arete!
Where have you been?
I've got you.
-[squeals]
-[Gabriel gasps]
-[body thuds]
-[Arete squealing]
[Gabriel] Matías.
-[tense music playing]
-[grunting, panting]
Matías.
Help us, please.
Matías!
Matías!
[exhales deeply]
Relax. I don't think
he'll leave us here, Arete.
Or will he?
It's time for us to start thinking
about the entrepreneurship projects
you're going to develop.
You're going to get together
in teams of two or three.
Begin coming up with ideas
of a real business you'd like to create.
This assignment won't be easy,
but I think you guys will have fun.
Again, I'll let you all choose your teams,
but remember,
you all need to work really hard together.
So get creative, and think about
who you can work with the best.
Remember, it's important
to get good grades on these projects
I cannot believe you did that!
I told you
to choose your friends carefully,
or you'd end up making enemies.
What's your problem?
-No, no, no.
-What's your problem?
-Don't touch me!
-Stop it! Stop it!
You, to the nurse's office!
You, to the principal's office!
Everyone else, class dismissed.
Don't you ever touch me again!
Now thanks to your classmates,
no one will be choosing their own teams.
I'll assign them later.
[students groaning, murmuring]
[Arete squealing]
-Just grab the hose. We'll pull you up.
-[man 1] Throw it down.
-All right.
-[man 2] Here.
[sighs]
Don't hurt Arete!
Harder. Come on, pull, guys.
[men grunting]
-[Gabriel] Here, grab her.
-[Arete grunting]
-You grab that.
-[man 1] Here, I got it.
[Gabriel exhales]
-Here, piggy. Come on.
-[man 2] I got you, sir.
-[man 1] There you go. All right.
-[man 2] Grab my hand.
[Matías laughing]
-[Gabriel grunting]
-Huh.
[panting] Thank you.
[laughing]
[sighs]
Come on, we'll head back.
-[Jimena grunting, panting]
-This way?
Um, no. No way.
Jimena, don't blame me
for you dressing like a princess
when we're in the wilderness on a hunt.
Is it my fault I'm a threat to you
so you need to humiliate me?
[scoffs]
[phones chiming]
Well, at least they found her.
WE ALREADY FOUND ARETE!
-[both sigh]
-[Jimena whimpers]
[whimsical music playing]
Why don't you and I go grab a coffee,
and we can discuss
the elephant in the room?
[music continues]
[band playing]
[Santiago] No, stop!
You guys, we're playing worse than ever.
Dude, I pulled an all-nighter again
to study for calculus.
And I still failed my test today.
We both had that test today,
but I'm still here trying my hardest.
True, but you, like,
always get an A in calc.
Man, we can't let outside problems
affect our rehearsals.
We need a new song,
and we need it to be a hit.
Let's try again.
Ready? One, two, three, and
Santiago, your dad called three times.
He said he was worried.
I guess you missed
an appointment with him.
Dang it, I totally forgot.
Grandpa, you mind giving me a ride?
All right. Let's go.
[Santiago] Bye, guys.
[whimsical music playing]
[plays punchline sting]
I have no intention
of stealing Gabriel from you, Violeta.
In fact, I'm going to marry Matías.
[laughs] No, no, I didn't think that.
Jimena, come on. You don't even know me.
-It's true, I don't know you.
-I've known Gaby ever since we were kids.
Mmm. And he left town
to study at university,
and when he left, I was too scared
to stay in Tepa alone, so I went away.
And we both moved on with our lives.
We've just always been best friends.
And that's all,
so there's nothing to worry about.
Okay, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I understand.
I don't know,
I just feel that the two of you
have a lot of, well,
interests in common, right?
Like the love you two share
for wearing boots and hats,
as well as all the cowboy stuff
you do, right?
And I admire you for moving abroad.
I sometimes think that I should have been
a little more adventurous
and left my comfort zone more and
and tried new things, like
you know, like the way that you did.
[gentle music playing]
Thank you for the coffee.
You're not coming back with me?
I can't. I really have to get back
to the office.
But, uh, okay, I'll see you around.
[music continues]
[Joaquín] I've been waiting for you
for over an hour.
You know, I have a life too, Santiago.
Sorry, Dad, I was practicing with my band.
I already told him
that music's never gonna pay his bills.
I'm afraid your granddad is right.
Although, maybe it would
if you were the lead singer.
Because you want to get the girls,
and be able to make a solo album later,
and make a lot of money.
But, anyways What were you assigned?
Okay, so the interview,
it can be with anyone.
Anyone who I admire because of their work.
And you think you'd like to be a lawyer?
Are you sure?
I thought you were into finance.
I don't know yet.
Okay, but listen.
Being a lawyer is very cool. Hit me.
When did you realize
that you wanted to be a lawyer?
Ooh. To be honest,
life made that decision for me.
I was studying engineering,
but the girl I was dating
wanted to study litigation,
so that's when I decided
I would study law as well.
[laughing]
I wasn't making a joke, old man.
That's what happened. It's the truth.
And besides,
I connected with law in the end.
And I'm doing well.
I'm glad you're considering
being a lawyer, Santiago.
I mean, just look around us.
One day, all of this, Santi,
it could be yours.
[Ernesto] Excuse me, Joaquín.
Santiago is going to need to learn finance
because he is going
to be inheriting my business.
Oh yeah? I guess we'll see then.
[whimsical music playing]
You didn't seem open to it.
For a moment I thought
you had left me there.
[scoffs] Who would do that?
What kind of person do you think I am?
[sighs] I don't know, Matías.
The other day, it didn't feel like a joke
when you threatened me.
I was just messing with you.
Come on, Gabriel.
Do you have to be so serious?
[phone ringing]
[Gabriel] What's up, Santi?
Everything okay?
Hi, Gaby.
So, hey, when did you know you wanted
to work in renewable energy?
I have an assignment to pick a career,
but I don't know what to do.
[sighs] The wind farm
is something I just started,
and I've changed direction multiple times.
That's life.
But you know what, Santi?
It's okay to find yourself.
Thank you, Gaby.
No way. That can't happen.
I can't believe you would say that.
-I don't care. It's not important.
-How could you say that to Santi?
[dog barking]
Doctor.
I had to induce vomiting,
but she's already better.
We saved the items she swallowed,
which makes these yours.
-[laughing] Excellent. Thanks, Doc.
-Look, it's your flash drive.
Uh, well, put it back in the baggie.
-Again, thank you. I really appreciate it.
-Yeah, no worries.
-Take care.
-I'm outta here.
-[Gabriel] Yeah, yeah.
-[snorting]
Arete! There you are, Arete!
You feeling better? How are you, my love?
Oh, thanks, Doctor.
-[snorting]
-Why must you scare me like this?
Oh, Doctor.
Think you could spare one of those?
The spyglass. [chuckles]
I assure you, it's for a very good cause.
-Yeah, sure. Why not?
-Really?
-Yes.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
-[chuckles]
-Ready, Arete? Time to go.
-She is adorable, isn't she?
-Thanks, again.
-Oh, it was nothing.
-[Leo] You found Arete!
-I did.
Sometimes you have to get lost
to find yourself, my Leo.
He's right, Leo.
Hey, you ready for this? Huh?
For your investigations.
Cool! It's just what I needed.
And I was only able to get that
thanks to Arete's misadventures.
So, you see, Leo? It's not always
a bad thing to leave the house.
I need to go investigate something
with this. Thank you.
[Jimena chuckles]
Thanks for bringing Arete to Leo.
You're welcome.
Luckily, we were able to find her.
I almost forgot how good you are
with the kids.
I don't know, Jimena,
you might have it backwards.
I've really missed them.

-Yeah.
-But I'll see you soon, won't I?
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah. See you.
Later.
[Jimena] Bye.

-[sighs]
WHAT DO YOU LOVE?
MUSIC
-[Jimena] Hey, sweetheart.
-Hey, Mom.
How are you? Need help with anything?
Uh, no. I just have to fill out
a questionnaire for school.
And what's it about?
What I want to be when I grow up.
But I think that I already
know the answer.
Mmm. And the answer is
That I actually don't need to decide yet.
I think I have to try a bunch of things
before I will know.
[inhales deeply] I think
you're the wisest kid I know. Hmm?
And sometimes, you have to get lost
to find yourself. Hmm?
[gentle music playing]
Y'know you can come to me
with problems like these?
-Yes.
-I'm always here, no matter what.
I love you.
Mmm. [kisses]
-I'll see you later.
-Bye, Mom.

-[music ends]
-[phone dings]
[video call tone]
So you already heard, then?
Yeah, we know. We're not allowed
to pick our own groups for the assignment.
Yeah. Boo.
At least you don't have
to partner up with Curly.
Tell me, what kind of teacher does that?

[furtive music continues]
Hi, sweetie.
-Did you come to sleep with me?
-[Leo] No, I'm here to supervise.
A good detective always makes sure
everything is right where it should be.
[Jimena] Ah.
Okay.
-Tell me, what did you investigate?
-Let's see.
Me?
I haven't seen that wrinkle before.
Must be new.
-A wrinkle, what?
-[laughing]
I don't have any wrinkles.
Why would you say that?
Time for bed, honey.
You can sleep now.
Everything is in the right place.
Ah, wonderful. I love you.
I love you too.
-See you tomorrow.
-Good night, my love.

I still don't understand why you need it.
Don't you know

I had a nightmare last night,

Oh, what time did that happen to you?
When did you come in here?
When you turned off all of the lights,
then I thought, "Oh good,
they're going to sleep."
Ah. Oh.
Um, all right, come with me, shorty.

-Mmm.
-I'm gonna go shower.

THE MANNY
[Gabriel] We're going to return
the necklace to Jimena, okay?
So, what do you think, hat or no hat?
-[snorts]
-You're right, no hat.
Let's go for a ride.
You just remember to be cute,
and loving, and beautiful, as always.
-Leaving already?
-Yeah, there's something I have to go do.
Okay. Well, don't forget that we have
that call with the electric company
to check the final details
on the public bid.
-I'll stop by the office later.
-Okay.
-And after that, let's get a drink.
-Well, why not two?
-Even better.
-And some carne en su jugo.
Shh! Poor thing.
[Arete snorts]
[Gabriel laughs]
-See you later.
-Bye.
Oh, hey, whose necklace is that?
Ah. It belongs to Jimena.
She, uh must've dropped it on accident.
Panchito is going to Guadalajara
to run some errands right now.
If you want, he can deliver it,
so we can go to the office.
No, it's on the way anyway.
Besides, Arete's dying
to go for a walk. See?
-Yeah, I should go.
-Yeah, okay, okay.
I'll see you later.
[teacher] Don't make that face.
This is not an exam.
After all the sessions
you've completed this year,
I think you should be ready
to answer these questions.
Then we'll meet and talk one-on-one
to see what your interests are
and the career you might prefer.
[students groaning, murmuring]
Also, this week, I want you
to interview a person that you admire.
Like someone that can help and
guide you on this career path later.
-[students groan, murmur]
-[student] What?
Oh, Gaby, you know
you can always come eat here.
You know I like trying to fatten you up.
Yeah, thanks, Martha. I'm thrilled,
but I don't have time for all this.
Hey, I don't buy the food.
So you can relax, all right?
-All right, then.
-Yes.
[Arete snorting]
-Arete!
-Mmm!
-Are you leaving her with me?
-Yes.
[Martha chuckles]
Hey, wait a minute.
Shouldn't you be attending school, Leo?
I don't know.
There was a field trip today
Leo didn't want to go on.
I'm in the middle of a case I'm working,
and no good detective
would let his investigation fall apart.
-Can I take her to play in my room?
-Yeah, of course. Go ahead.
[chuckles]
I'll take care of her.
What do you have there?
-It's Arete.
-What's that?
[grunts softly]
[Gabriel] Hello.
Gabriel, what are you doing here,
besides eating all that food?
-Well, I came to drop off Arete with Leo.
-[Jimena] Okay.
But good morning.
-Good morning.
-[chuckles]
What's this that the school went
on a trip, but Leo didn't want to?
Lately, he's afraid of everything,
you know?
He didn't want to go to the school thing.
His friend had a sleepover. He didn't go.
I honestly think it's because
of all the changes.
[tapping on cup]
Excuse me one second.
-Sure.
-Look at this.
-Eh?
-Wow!
-Hmm.
-Well, thanks.
[whimsical music playing]
[exhales]
-You have a little foam.
-Oh.
[chuckles]
Oh yeah. I brought you something.
[gasps] You didn't.
Thank you. I thought for sure
I would never see it again.
-I found it by the lake.
-No.
[sighs]
Thanks.
I'll have it fixed immediately
so this never happens again.
Good morning.
Morning, my love.
Honey, do you think
we could change the pillows?
Because yours are so hard
I feel like I've sprained my neck.
Yeah, we'll swap 'em out.
Matías was telling me that
you're developing a real estate project,
and it occurred to me
that maybe it could benefit
from a sewage treatment plan.
That's what my partner Violeta
and I are doing.
In fact, why don't you stop by
the office here in Guadalajara,
and I'll show you what we can offer you?
-[Matías] Hmm.
-Oh, yeah, yeah.
Are you sure we won't be too busy later?
No. Yes, yes, yes,
we have time at twelve o'clock.
Okay. Then, after twelve o'clock,
we'll figure it out and go.
[Gabriel] Hmm.
[Jimena] Okay, great. Bye.
-Tasty breakfast?
-It's really delicious.
Bye.
Bye.
[whimsical music continues]
[sighs]
[Nadia] You haven't eaten at all.
What's wrong, Sofía?
Ever since my birthday,
you've been acting kinda weird.
We're starting to worry.
Abel kissed me at the party
without my consent.
And I still don't know
how I feel about it.
Obviously, what he did, it was bad,
and that's why I pushed him and he fell
into your mother's tulips, Nadia.
But I think I wanted to kiss.
He still should've asked
for your consent first.
I know, right?
Anyway, he can't have feelings for me.
We're good friends.
Yeah, but what's that
have to do with these?
It's a protest against the male gaze.
To make Abel realize that he has to see me
on the inside and not just the outside.
And it's really clear to me that
oversize fashion is trending right now.
[chuckles]
-[knocking on door]
-[Romina] I'm coming, Gabriel. Calm down.
-How did you know it was me?
-Because I'm a witch. You knew that.
Mmm.
[sighs] Come in.
-I got everything you put on the list.
-That's great, son.
Put it on the table.
Huh?
What's with the pictures?
Again with those? They weren't there
when I was here the other day.
Things change sometimes, my son.
And that's what I'm seeing now.
-It had been a while since I saw Jimena.
-Right.
Because, for starters,
Violeta comes back as if
she had never left in the first place,
and then, once I'm perfectly happy,
and no longer controlled by
all of these thoughts about
Jimena.
[sighs] Let's just drop it.
Oh yeah, the other day,
Matías threatened me too.
Hmm. I don't trust that guy even a little.
-[laughs]
-What?
-It's not jealousy.
-Hmm.
It's just that even Leo
said he distrusts him.
Ah.
Would you stop with all of that?
This guy isn't the person who he says
he is, or he's hiding a secret.
Look, I have a bad feeling about this guy.
I think he's the shadow
I'm seeing between you two.
I don't know.
I don't believe in all that stuff.
Ah.
Believe what you want.
But trust me, you're incredibly jealous.
I better go start the broth,
otherwise the meat won't be done in time.
[Santiago] I have no idea what I wanna be.
Well, I don't need to do
a stupid questionnaire.
I'll go into advertising, same as my papa,
same as my mom, and my brother José Luis.
I don't know either, but I'm going to
go do an interview with my aunt Tata.
She's a journalist,
which sounds kind of cool.
These questions!
Do you have anything
you're passionate about,
that makes you lose track of time?
I have no clue what that would be for me.
Andrés never lets Coco in bed with us.
[scoffs] That's so not true, Pedro.
He is the one that refuses
to wash Coco with her bubbles.
So she stays with me.
-[ringing]
-[Joaquín] Oh, that's my son.
He's real though. Um, not a pet son.
Please excuse me. I won't be long.
[scoffs]
-What's up, Santi?
-[on phone] Hi, Dad.
Can you help me
with an assignment from class?
Santi, buddy, just to be real with you,
I was never good at school.
I know you can handle this.
It's just an interview.
Ah! [laughs]
-[men arguing]
-Okay, okay. I'm a natural at that.
You want to come by the office today
when school gets out?
-M'kay.
-[Joaquín] Okay, see ya.
[Santiago] Let's go.
You guys are lucky.
Dogs don't need help with their homework.
-Right?
-Right.
So who's keeping Coco?
-Me, obviously.
-I will.
-No, no. You got the truck.
-Oh, come on. Why not?
You don't even want her
to sleep in the bed.
-"I want my space."
-Right!
Besides, you're allergic, right?
-"Move, I need to sleep."
-Go cry to your mommy.

ECOSOLUTIONS
TO CHANGE THE WORLD

-[Jimena] That quote is very true.
-[laughs] Yes.
Gaby likes that line as well,
but I came up with it.
-Really? That's not true.
-Well, sure.
-We both came up with it
-When?
in biology class.
[Violeta] Okay. He helped with the idea,
but I thought of it. [laughs]
Well, let's be honest,
Violeta has the best ideas.
And the best connections.
We can help you get
the technology and the tools.
Plus, we do all the installations.
Well, that all sounds
very interesting to me,
but right now, we're focusing on the land.
No. No, no, no, no, no, no.
This is exactly the kind of thing
that we need to convince investors
to enter the project.
Send them the plans
and, well, everything they need
to put together a budget.
And, well, welcome to the project.
[Gabriel and Violeta laugh]
-Well, thank you very much.
-This is great.
-Congratulations.
-[Violeta] Thank you.
-[Matías] Congratulations.
-Thank you.
I'm sure you're aware
Jimena gets what she wants.
-That's why she's marrying me.
-[all laugh]
[phone ringing]
-[Jimena] I need to take this.
-Oh, sure, of course.
-Hey. What's up, Pop?
-Hi, sweetheart.
Leo thinks the piglet ate some metal thing
that was in your room.
I don't know. Should I be worried?
It was red. It looked like a candy.
Uh, okay. Um, I'll let Gabriel know.
I gotta go. See you.
[snorting]
Um, Gaby, my dad just told me
that Arete ate a little red metal thing.
Apparently, it was in my room.
My dad wondered if he should be worried.
No, no, no.
Arete, she's eaten worse, believe me.
But still, I'll go to the house
and check on her.
I think that red thingy
was my flash drive.
-What flash drive?
-The one I had in my pocket.
I know I put it in this jacket.
It's too important to lose.
[sighs] Gabriel,
I really need to recover that drive.
-Guess I'm going with you.
-Let's go.
Sure, let's go.
-[door opens]
-Uh
-[Gabriel] Go ahead.
-Hold on a sec.
I'll come with you guys. [chuckles]
[teacher] Good morning, everyone.
I want to introduce you to the new student
joining your classroom.
Her name is Claudia Sánchez.
-[teacher] Thank you, Professor.
-[professor] I'll leave her with you.
[indistinct chatter]
[whimsical music playing]
Why'd she have to be in this class though?
-Hi!
-Hey.
Oh, how cool. We're in the same class.
-Yeah, it's totally the best group here.
-Perfect.
We're doing an activity
if you want to share my book.
Okay, thanks.
I lost Arete. She escaped
when someone opened the door.
The gardener came earlier,
and he was always leaving the door open.
Or maybe it was someone else
who left the door open.
Look, Leo, no need to worry.
Piglets are very adventurous.
Yeah, they're always
sniffing out new adventures
and trying to explore the world.
But that's why I don't go out,
because I might get lost.
No, that'll never happen because
your mom always knows where you are.
That's my job.
So don't you worry.
I'll do everything possible to find Arete.
With tiny legs, how far could she go? Hmm?
Well, let's find that pig.
There's no point in wasting time.
Yeah, you're right about that.
Eh, you and I will go one way,
and you two go the other way.
We can stay in touch by phone.
And we need you here, Leo,
in case she returns.
Okay.
I'll follow you, then,
since you know her best.
Right. Let's go.
-This'll be fun.
-Yep. Let's go.
[whimsical music playing]
So, how long
were you and Gabriel together?
[scoffs]
No. Uh, why do you think that?
He was on the payroll.
He was my kids' manny. [chuckles]
How'd you get that idea?
[sighs] Just a thought. My mistake.
But I I believe you.
And I think that, to be honest,
you're not really his type.
How do you know I'm not?
Oh, come on. Really?
Look what you're wearing,
with your cute little dress
and high heels on and all.
[inhales sharply] Ah, you know what?
All those trees are exactly
what a pig wants.
Drop us off right here. We'll walk.
If you want, you can stay in the car
while I go check real quick.
No, no, no, no, I'm not staying.
I'll I'll go with you.
Okay.
[door alarm pinging]
[Gabriel] So, what's on the flash drive?
The latest version of my project.
-You didn't save it on the cloud?
-God, I wish. I forgot to back it up.
[sighs]
What?
Hopefully Arete hasn't gone potty.
There's not much time left.
We have maybe about 30 minutes to find her
before your flash drive
and her breakfast end up on the
No, no, don't even say it.
-Let's go.
-All right.
[whimsical music continues]
This way.
So, how did you and Jimena meet?
We met at a work party.
The first time I saw her,
I was head over heels.
And ever since that night,
we've been inseparable.
[Gabriel] Hmm.
[kids chattering]
[snorting]
There she is.
Ah, kids, kids, please move along.
Out of the way. Out of the way.
Come on, move it, move it.
[sighs] She's gone.
She probably got spooked.
-Thanks to all these kids.
-[kids] Boo.
Okay. She has to be around here
somewhere. Let's take a look.
[kids laughing]
[Violeta] Are you sure you wouldn't
rather stay in the car?
You know, since you're in those heels.
Can't they get ruined or something?
-[insect buzzing]
-No, I'm fantastic. I don't need anything.
If you say so.
Pigs tend to nest,
so I think Arete is probably looking
for somewhere comfortable and safe.
Especially if she's sick
from what she swallowed, so
[whimsical music playing]
Uh, why don't we try there?
Arete.
Arete!
Nowadays, children have
no respect for adults.
And they don't pay attention.
But didn't you say the other day
children are the most important thing
in the world?
Man, I did say that. [laughs]
You got me there, Gabriel.
I'm not into kids, to be honest with you.
So, how do you manage
with Santi, Sof, and Leo?
Well, those kids are already well-trained.
They don't need an old man.
I plan to get hitched to Jimena,
not to her kids.
Fortunately. Hmm?
[Claudia chuckling]
I think it's time to explain
how things work in this school.
-[Claudia] Yeah, you're right.
-Really?
-Oh, hey, Claudia.
-My friends call me Curly.
Oh yeah, of course.
Look, I came here to tell you that
in this school,
it's really important
to choose your friends carefully.
-Sofía.
-[Sofía] Shh.
Because some people seem like
they're nice, and they're not. Like Abel.
So I'm supposed to hang out
with you instead of him?
Exactly. At least we won't be the ones
who stab you in the back.
Well, listen up, scarecrow.
I don't know what terrible story
you're trying to tell,
but, believe me when I say,
I really can't stand
getting bossed around.
So I decide who
I'm going to hang with or not.
Is that clear?
Now, excuse us. We were trying to talk.
[whimsical music playing]
[exhales deeply]
So, how's a guy like you
come to be a manny for Jimena?
Well, it's kind of a long story.
But let's just say, I wanted independence,
instead of working for my papa.
[curious music playing]
Oh, hey, we lost our piglet.
Have you guys seen a little pig?
[music continues]
-[sighs]
-[phone ringing]
You're not going to answer that?
Go ahead. [chuckles]
It's the bank, you know?
I'm a bit nervous,
so I don't want to talk right now.
Okay.
You mean you owe money?
We all owe somebody, don't we?
And the more you ask for,
the more you then owe to banks.
-Sure.
-And the more you eventually have.
Didn't you know that?
-No, I'm just a manny, so
-[Arete snorting]
There she is!
Arete!
Where have you been?
I've got you.
-[squeals]
-[Gabriel gasps]
-[body thuds]
-[Arete squealing]
[Gabriel] Matías.
-[tense music playing]
-[grunting, panting]
Matías.
Help us, please.
Matías!
Matías!
[exhales deeply]
Relax. I don't think
he'll leave us here, Arete.
Or will he?
It's time for us to start thinking
about the entrepreneurship projects
you're going to develop.
You're going to get together
in teams of two or three.
Begin coming up with ideas
of a real business you'd like to create.
This assignment won't be easy,
but I think you guys will have fun.
Again, I'll let you all choose your teams,
but remember,
you all need to work really hard together.
So get creative, and think about
who you can work with the best.
Remember, it's important
to get good grades on these projects
I cannot believe you did that!
I told you
to choose your friends carefully,
or you'd end up making enemies.
What's your problem?
-No, no, no.
-What's your problem?
-Don't touch me!
-Stop it! Stop it!
You, to the nurse's office!
You, to the principal's office!
Everyone else, class dismissed.
Don't you ever touch me again!
Now thanks to your classmates,
no one will be choosing their own teams.
I'll assign them later.
[students groaning, murmuring]
[Arete squealing]
-Just grab the hose. We'll pull you up.
-[man 1] Throw it down.
-All right.
-[man 2] Here.
[sighs]
Don't hurt Arete!
Harder. Come on, pull, guys.
[men grunting]
-[Gabriel] Here, grab her.
-[Arete grunting]
-You grab that.
-[man 1] Here, I got it.
[Gabriel exhales]
-Here, piggy. Come on.
-[man 2] I got you, sir.
-[man 1] There you go. All right.
-[man 2] Grab my hand.
[Matías laughing]
-[Gabriel grunting]
-Huh.
[panting] Thank you.
[laughing]
[sighs]
Come on, we'll head back.
-[Jimena grunting, panting]
-This way?
Um, no. No way.
Jimena, don't blame me
for you dressing like a princess
when we're in the wilderness on a hunt.
Is it my fault I'm a threat to you
so you need to humiliate me?
[scoffs]
[phones chiming]
Well, at least they found her.
WE ALREADY FOUND ARETE!
-[both sigh]
-[Jimena whimpers]
[whimsical music playing]
Why don't you and I go grab a coffee,
and we can discuss
the elephant in the room?
[music continues]
[band playing]
[Santiago] No, stop!
You guys, we're playing worse than ever.
Dude, I pulled an all-nighter again
to study for calculus.
And I still failed my test today.
We both had that test today,
but I'm still here trying my hardest.
True, but you, like,
always get an A in calc.
Man, we can't let outside problems
affect our rehearsals.
We need a new song,
and we need it to be a hit.
Let's try again.
Ready? One, two, three, and

He said he was worried.
I guess you missed
an appointment with him.
Dang it, I totally forgot.
Grandpa, you mind giving me a ride?
All right. Let's go.
[Santiago] Bye, guys.
[whimsical music playing]
[plays punchline sting]
I have no intention
of stealing Gabriel from you, Violeta.
In fact, I'm going to marry Matías.
[laughs] No, no, I didn't think that.
Jimena, come on. You don't even know me.
-It's true, I don't know you.
-I've known Gaby ever since we were kids.
Mmm. And he left town
to study at university,
and when he left, I was too scared
to stay in Tepa alone, so I went away.
And we both moved on with our lives.
We've just always been best friends.
And that's all,
so there's nothing to worry about.
Okay, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I understand.
I don't know,
I just feel that the two of you
have a lot of, well,
interests in common, right?
Like the love you two share
for wearing boots and hats,
as well as all the cowboy stuff
you do, right?
And I admire you for moving abroad.
I sometimes think that I should have been
a little more adventurous
and left my comfort zone more and
and tried new things, like
you know, like the way that you did.
[gentle music playing]
Thank you for the coffee.
You're not coming back with me?
I can't. I really have to get back
to the office.
But, uh, okay, I'll see you around.
[music continues]
[Joaquín] I've been waiting for you
for over an hour.
You know, I have a life too, Santiago.
Sorry, Dad, I was practicing with my band.
I already told him
that music's never gonna pay his bills.
I'm afraid your granddad is right.
Although, maybe it would
if you were the lead singer.
Because you want to get the girls,
and be able to make a solo album later,
and make a lot of money.
But, anyways What were you assigned?
Okay, so the interview,
it can be with anyone.
Anyone who I admire because of their work.
And you think you'd like to be a lawyer?
Are you sure?
I thought you were into finance.
I don't know yet.
Okay, but listen.
Being a lawyer is very cool. Hit me.
When did you realize
that you wanted to be a lawyer?
Ooh. To be honest,
life made that decision for me.
I was studying engineering,
but the girl I was dating
wanted to study litigation,
so that's when I decided
I would study law as well.
[laughing]
I wasn't making a joke, old man.
That's what happened. It's the truth.
And besides,
I connected with law in the end.
And I'm doing well.
I'm glad you're considering
being a lawyer, Santiago.
I mean, just look around us.
One day, all of this, Santi,
it could be yours.
[Ernesto] Excuse me, Joaquín.
Santiago is going to need to learn finance
because he is going
to be inheriting my business.
Oh yeah? I guess we'll see then.
[whimsical music playing]
You didn't seem open to it.
For a moment I thought
you had left me there.
[scoffs] Who would do that?
What kind of person do you think I am?
[sighs] I don't know, Matías.
The other day, it didn't feel like a joke
when you threatened me.
I was just messing with you.
Come on, Gabriel.
Do you have to be so serious?
[phone ringing]
[Gabriel] What's up, Santi?
Everything okay?
Hi, Gaby.
So, hey, when did you know you wanted
to work in renewable energy?
I have an assignment to pick a career,
but I don't know what to do.
[sighs] The wind farm
is something I just started,
and I've changed direction multiple times.
That's life.
But you know what, Santi?
It's okay to find yourself.
Thank you, Gaby.
No way. That can't happen.
I can't believe you would say that.
-I don't care. It's not important.
-How could you say that to Santi?
[dog barking]
Doctor.
I had to induce vomiting,
but she's already better.
We saved the items she swallowed,
which makes these yours.
-[laughing] Excellent. Thanks, Doc.
-Look, it's your flash drive.
Uh, well, put it back in the baggie.
-Again, thank you. I really appreciate it.
-Yeah, no worries.
-Take care.
-I'm outta here.
-[Gabriel] Yeah, yeah.
-[snorting]
Arete! There you are, Arete!
You feeling better? How are you, my love?
Oh, thanks, Doctor.
-[snorting]
-Why must you scare me like this?
Oh, Doctor.
Think you could spare one of those?
The spyglass. [chuckles]
I assure you, it's for a very good cause.
-Yeah, sure. Why not?
-Really?
-Yes.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
-[chuckles]
-Ready, Arete? Time to go.
-She is adorable, isn't she?
-Thanks, again.
-Oh, it was nothing.
-[Leo] You found Arete!
-I did.
Sometimes you have to get lost
to find yourself, my Leo.
He's right, Leo.
Hey, you ready for this? Huh?
For your investigations.
Cool! It's just what I needed.
And I was only able to get that
thanks to Arete's misadventures.
So, you see, Leo? It's not always
a bad thing to leave the house.
I need to go investigate something
with this. Thank you.
[Jimena chuckles]
Thanks for bringing Arete to Leo.
You're welcome.
Luckily, we were able to find her.
I almost forgot how good you are
with the kids.
I don't know, Jimena,
you might have it backwards.
I've really missed them.

-[Arete snorting]
[music resumes]
[Jimena laughs]
[Gabriel laughs]
-I better go.
-Yeah.
-But I'll see you soon, won't I?
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah. See you.
Later.
[Jimena] Bye.
-[door closes]
-[sighs]
WHAT DO YOU LOVE?
MUSIC
-[Jimena] Hey, sweetheart.
-Hey, Mom.
How are you? Need help with anything?
Uh, no. I just have to fill out
a questionnaire for school.
And what's it about?
What I want to be when I grow up.
But I think that I already
know the answer.
Mmm. And the answer is
That I actually don't need to decide yet.
I think I have to try a bunch of things
before I will know.
[inhales deeply] I think
you're the wisest kid I know. Hmm?
And sometimes, you have to get lost
to find yourself. Hmm?
[gentle music playing]
Y'know you can come to me
with problems like these?
-Yes.
-I'm always here, no matter what.
I love you.
Mmm. [kisses]
-I'll see you later.
-Bye, Mom.
[gentle music continues]
-[music ends]
-[phone dings]
[video call tone]
So you already heard, then?
Yeah, we know. We're not allowed
to pick our own groups for the assignment.
Yeah. Boo.
At least you don't have
to partner up with Curly.
Tell me, what kind of teacher does that?
-[sighs]
-[furtive music plays]
[breathes deeply]
[music ends]
[furtive music continues]
Hi, sweetie.
-Did you come to sleep with me?
-[Leo] No, I'm here to supervise.
A good detective always makes sure
everything is right where it should be.
[Jimena] Ah.
Okay.
-Tell me, what did you investigate?
-Let's see.
Me?
I haven't seen that wrinkle before.
Must be new.
-A wrinkle, what?
-[laughing]
I don't have any wrinkles.
Why would you say that?
Time for bed, honey.
You can sleep now.
Everything is in the right place.
Ah, wonderful. I love you.
I love you too.
-See you tomorrow.
-Good night, my love.
[music ends]
[inhales deeply]
[keypad clacking]
[Jimena] Leo isn't afraid anymore,
and I get to sleep soundly.
Thank you.

[tense music playing]
[man] I've been waiting for you
for over an hour.
And look at the mess
you've turned my apartment into.
If you only knew what it took to get
this little thing you asked me to get.
[laughs]
I still don't understand why you need it.
Don't you know
most of these people already?
[man] People's finances change every day.
With this
you'll get what you're owed,
and Jimena will realize she needs me.
