Shh.
I need your help.
But in order to help me,
I need you to be sneaky.
- Are you two little fools sneaky?
- Yes.
- How sneaky?
- Very sneaky.
Okay, then.
I need you to go out back
and blow up these fireworks.
- You can do that for your tío Julio?
- Yeah.
You know how to use a lighter?
- Yeah.
- You do?
- Yeah.
- Okay, here.
[WHISPERING]
Alright, get the hell outta here.

Oh, shit, uh

You should probably go check it out.
I gotta bounce.
Why? Where you going? What's the rush?

Wah, wah.
It's funny. Nobody did anything
for my birthday last week.
Hey, what's Julio's problem?
I would have killed to have celebrated
my birthday while I was locked up.
ANA:
He's not happy with where he's at in life
because he doesn't know what he wants,
and so he, like, hates himself for it.
So instead of celebrating his birthday,
he literally thinks he deserves to suffer.
Okay.
I'm gonna make sure he suffers
by celebrating
the shit out of his birthday.
Good luck finding him.
Every birthday he disappears all day.
I bet he even called in sick to work.
- Pinche huevón.
- Hey, hey.
Maybe he's out doing something fun.
[DRILL WHIRRING]
BARRY THE DENTIST: Good morning, Mr. Lopez.
I, uh, I'm reviewing your paperwork here,
and I noticed a little mistake.
It says here that it's your birthday.
Oh, uh, it's not a mistake.
Today is my birthday.
Oh. Well, in that case,
we should reschedule.
You shouldn't have to be here
on your birthday.
- Oh, no, that's okay.
- Thanks for offering, though.
- You sure?
- Yeah.
I specifically scheduled this for today.
- You wanna be here?
- I wanna be here.
- Oh. Okay.
- Yeah.
Mr. Lopez, then I guess, uh, open wide.
JULIO: Yeah.
[BARRY SIGHS]
BARRY: Oh, okay. I just I can't do this.
I'm sorry. I cannot do this.
But it's your job.
What are you, into BDSM or something?
No. BARRY: You like getting punished?
No. BARRY: Naughty birthday boy.
I went to dental school
and they warned me about people like you.
Hey, you wanna get weird with a doctor?
You go see a podiatrist. Okay?
Don't you ever
come back here again, pervert.
And I'm still charging you for today.
Pervert.
- Fuck

Hey, Minister Payne, what's up?
MINISTER PAYNE: [OVER PHONE]
Fabian got arrested.
For what?
Public nudity at a Jewish temple.
He was screaming to be converted.
- What?
- Julio, are you listening to me?
Fabian is tweaking again.
I need you to come down here and run things
while I work on finding him a good lawyer.
But I specifically took today off.
MINISTER PAYNE: Julio!
JULIO: Tsk. [SIGHS]
[CELL PHONE CHIMES]
Goddamn it.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Oh, hey, Julio.
I hope you're having
a very nice and special day.
Oh, um for no particular reason.
Thanks. You too.

Oh, yeah, I'm making this cake
extra special for this motherfucker.
That fool told me
his birthday was on Christmas.
That's why I didn't buy him anything.
Which is fucked up,
'cause he always go hard for our birthday.
Last year, that motherfucker
got me some fancy-ass soap.
Somehow he knew
the exact kinda soap that I wanted.
Shea butter.
FABIAN: He thinks we're a charity case.
Martyr-ass bitch.
Make a wish, bitch.
'Cause your birthday's getting celebrated.
Damn, that cake looks bomb!

Luis told me everything.
You fuckin' lied to me.
We just wanna celebrate your birthday.
You made me do this.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

- Maggie?
- Shouldn't leave your window unlocked.
There's a lot of perverts
and sick fucks out there.
You didn't text me back.
About that earthquake that didn't happen?
You're so pathetic.
Now move over, loser.
What are you doing here?
- We broke up again.
- I know.
But it's your birthday.
I had to come by and give you your gift.
- I don't want anything.
- Bullshit.
So you think you know me, huh?
I'm the only one who knows you.
And I know exactly what you want.
Oh, yeah? What is that?
You wanna lie here and stare at the ceiling
and think about how much
you fucking hate yourself.
[JULIO SIGHS]
Because you're 31
and you still live at your mom's house
because you chose a career path
that doesn't lead
to financial independence.
- Oh, yeah? Fuck.
- [RUMBLING]
And also because you broke up with me,
because you're scared of commitment.
So you're all alone.
Oh, shit, this is good.
But guess what, sucio?
I'm here now, and I'm gonna
let you have your cake and eat it too.
- Oh, fuck, yeah.
- [RUMBLING INTENSIFIES]
So we're just gonna lie here
and be fucking miserable all night long!

LUIS: I'm sorry that I told everybody
it was your birthday.
I know you don't like
to make a big deal out of it,
but, you know, you've done
a lot to help me out.
I know you had good intentions.
It's all good.
LUIS: Hey, listen, I really think
you should come out tonight.
I promise we'll do it up right, primo.
I'd rather kick it by myself.
LUIS: Come on, dawg.
We don't even gotta go out anywhere.
Just come out and have a pisto with me.
You didn't hear me? I said no!
LUIS: Alright, then, you fuckin' pussy.
Have it your way.

You've made a difference in their lives.
They're better people because of you.
LUIS: Oh, damn, oh, I'm pregnant.
Ay, Mira, look, it's a baby Julio.
[GRUNTING]
Bitch.
You're totally right.
I need to change my attitude.
How about this?
I'll stop being a little bitch
if you bowl a round with me.
Loser has to lead group hug tomorrow.

Luis invited you to this stupid thing, huh?
What stupid thing?
Who the fuck is this?
Th This This is my date.
Hey, what's up, man? Cool shoes.
This guy is my friend Julio Lopez.
Hey, cool name, bro. I'm Julio Tambien.
Oh, great. Another Julio?
What's your last name?
I just told you, bro. It's Tambien.
What kinda stupid-ass last name is that?
I dunno.
How was I supposed to know you'd be here?
You usually just stay at home
and stare at the ceiling on your birthday.
You don't know me
as well as you think you do.
I'm actually having
a fuckin' blast right now.
You were just trying
to escape your own party.
- I don't wanna argue on my birthday.
- It's a special day.
- Aw.
- Also, how'd you meet that fool?
- I met him at a work event for my firm.
- He's a lawyer.
A lawyer? Pfft. What a douche.
An international human rights lawyer.
[SARCASTICALLY] Oh, what a great guy.
- Fuck off.
- Ugh.
Isn't there like a law against
dating one of your coworkers?
It's funny how you work at a law firm
and I know more about the law than you.
Oh, my God, just shut up, okay?
Look, I am happy to go somewhere else.
I fucking hate bowling.
JULIO: No. Just stay.
We're all adults here. I'm 31 now.
Mature enough to handle this
complicated situation with ease.
Okay. If that's what you really want.
- Yeah.
- Hey, babe. Let's go bowl.
Hey. Nice meeting you, Julio Lopez.
Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.
Game on, Tambien.

- Thank you.
- Let's fuckin' do this.

- [INDISTINCT CHATTER]
- Oh. Oh.

Hey, my boy.
Maggie's there with some other fool.
I know.
Well, how does that make you feel?
It's my birthday. I feel fucking great.

That's right, my boy!
Welcome to the party!

Can't let that fool win.
Guess I gotta use the other Manuela.

That's not how shit works.
You could have at least texted me back.
Why? Did you want to hang out with me?
No. It's just friends should
text friends back on their birthdays.
Just admit it.
You miss me.
I didn't say that.
Stop being such a little bitch
and admit what you want.
I don't want shit from you.
I know what you want.
You wanna kiss me right here
in this dirty-ass bathroom.
Admit it, slut.
Okay. I miss you. There.
And?
