[Lola] Are you crazy? The landlord
gives me the eye every time I see him.

- [laughter]
- Oh, yeah. Gotta have fun.

What would life be like without fun?

- [Carmen] How was it?
- [Lola] How was it?

[laughter]

- Here I am.
- [Lola] Hey!

- [Carmen] Some wine?
- But white, right?

No, no way. No, don't be a snob.

- The house wine that stains your teeth.
- Really?

- Mm-hm.
- Wait. Isn't Valeria coming?

She hasn't said a word in two days,
not since she sent this.

I'M STARTING THE SELF-PUBLISHING PROCESS!

- Look at her. She's really living, huh?
- [Nerea] Yeah.

Aaaah!

[sighs]

Is this all in Korean?

[chuckles] Of course, my love,
because it's the real thing.

Okay, but choosing a meal here is like
playing Russian roulette with food.

[laughs]

Look. I mean, I like all of it...

except for kimchi.

- Kimchi?
- Yes.

Where's kimchi?

Uh, well, it must be over... right here?

- Or here... Well... I'm not sure where it is.
- Sure.

But kimchi's always spicy.

Wow.

It's been ages since we went out
to lunch together, hasn't it?

We're both so busy. [sighs]

And... I don't know. By the way,

how's your presentation going,
for Joaquín Orta?

Uh, well, you know...

Mmm... No. [laughs]

No, I don't know.
That's why I'm asking you.

Well, the usual.
Compiling ideas and all that.

My love, if you're feeling stuck,
you can tell me.

- I'm finding it pretty hard myself.
- Yeah, well, but I'm not stuck.

I would even say I've made
quite a lot of progress with things.

Oh.

Okay!

What is it, then?
Do you think I want to copy you?

- Huh? No, no, no, no. Copy me?
- You...

- You do!
- No, I... No. Look, not that. Not copy me.

I don't want us
to get caught up in each other's ideas.

When have you ever influenced me?

- Uh... Hello.
- Hi.

Okay, I will have this, uh...
"bimbibra," is it?

And kimchi.

Ah, well, the same for me.

Thank you.

[chuckles]

- No.
- No?

- No. No, no, no, no.
- [laughs] Okay, well...

- Sorry, this doesn't prove anything.
- Oh, no?

No, because
the kimchi here is not so spicy.

- Yeah...
- Clever.

[Víctor senior] Virginia's been waiting
for you to start the meeting.

- You should know that.
- Uh... The meeting?

- The meeting.
- About the entrance design.

Right, of course.

- Right, yes. Yeah.
- [phone buzzing]

You look like you've been
out of it lately.

- Please excuse me.
- [chuckles]

- Hello? Yeah.
- Just a minute.

- Sorry, I was working on a project.
- The presentation...

A red-headed project who ran out
of your house the other day?

I never imagined you falling
for a married woman.

- She's not married anymore.
- I think I saw a ring.

[chuckles]

Come on, let's go.

[error beeps]

[error beeps]

[chimes]

[doorbell rings]

[groans]

- I'm coming!
- [banging]

I said I'm coming!

- [doorbell ringing]
- [thumping]

- Ugh! Rescue unit's here.
- What are you going to rescue?

- Uh, you.
- Me? From what?

- Your sad life.
- My life is not sad.

- Not at all.
- Have you seen yourself in the mirror?

You look like you haven't left the house
in weeks. Get this off.

- No! Hey, it's cold.
- Did you listen to the message you sent?

- You sounded like a crazy woman.
- The self-publishing is stressing me out.

- Sure.
- No.

- That's just part of what's wrong.
- No, I know it's not that.

- No? I know you.
- [door opens]

- Stop it!
- [Carmen gasps]

- [Nerea and Lola] What is it?
- This mess is a reflection of her life.

- Look on that side.
- Put on some clean pants.

These are clean.

- This?
- That's for summer.

- I don't wanna go out.
- A sweater. Pink or green?

- Green. It matches her eyes.
- Perfect.

- There's a yellow one I really like...
- No! Arms up.

Higher. Come on.

- Oof!
- When did you last take a shower?

[Nerea] You need to brighten up.
Get fresh air on your face.

- You're sort of haggard.
- Because the sun isn't shining.

- The rouge from Chanel!
- I cried when you gave it as a gift.

- I told you.
- Girls, just a minute.

- Let me fix this.
- I have no cash and a lot of work to do.

We're not asking you to go eat caviar
at the Ritz, just get outside for a while.

Don't worry. When you're back, your
first-world problems will still be here.

- Hey!
- Get up!

- Mm-hm.
- Let's see, uh, phone?

- Uh, I've got it.
- Purse?

- Oh, it's here!
- Perfect.

Pretty hot babe going for a drink

- with her friends, Valeria?
- [all] Mm-hm!

- Present?
- Let's go!

- [Nerea] Come on!
- [Carmen] Let's go!

- [Lola shivers] This sun is misleading.
- [Valeria] Please!

- [Nerea] It's cold.
- [Carmen] I'm so cold.

- Why are we standing in line?
- It's a big surprise!

If you think there's lots of people here,
you should have seen my last interview.

- Don't worry. Something will turn up.
- It's frustrating.

You were brave and you're still out
of work. I was brave and I have no book.

- Maybe being brave is overrated.
- You have your own home, at least.

- Hmm.
- Here we go again.

You can stay at my place
as long as you need.

If it's okay,
I thought I could use the mornings

to tidy up and help you with housework.

That's really considerate,
but you don't need to, really.

No, that's not it. It's not for you,
it's for me. I feel useless.

- Oh, well, okay, then.
- And how are things with Borja?

Well, right now,
I'm kind of really angry at him.

He wouldn't tell me
his ideas for the Joaquín Orta job.

- He doesn't wanna contaminate yours.
- This isn't about contamination.

I mean, we're advertising agents,
not Greta Thunberg.

- Did you tell him any of yours?
- Well, I would do that, if I had any.

- You've made no progress?
- No. I don't know.

I think it's because
I know Borja's my competition.

- It's like I'm... I'm frozen.
- Yeah.

- Have you heard from Víctor?
- No. I almost prefer that.

- Yeah.
- I wouldn't know what to say to him.

I'm not saying what he did was wrong,
but it wasn't what I expected.

I don't know. [sighs]

- And you? Did you talk to Sergio?
- Well...

[Nerea] Girls, we've been in line
less than ten minutes,

and Borja, Víctor and Sergio
have already come up.

What's wrong with you?

- We're professional...
- [Carmen] You're on Lola's couch.

- [Lola and Valeria laughing]
- We're not 15 anymore.

We like movies and books,
and we're interested in politics, right?

Let's please spend ten minutes
not talking about...

- Waffles! Yes!
- Mmm!

Mmm.

Tell me it wasn't worth it.
- 20 minutes in line. You're right, Nerea.

- We devote too much time to them.
- Ain't that true. [babbles]

- [laughing]
- Maybe we could help you with your novel.

- Do we know anyone who does layout?
- I don't.

- Mm. No.
- Mmm!

I know this amazing graphic designer.
I could ask him.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

- Okay.
- Olga's an illustrator, right?

The one who did that graffiti
at her house? No.

Yeah, she's an illustrator.
What the heck? She owes me.

- Sure about that?
- Mmm.

I can get a cool marketing plan
ready for the launch.

- Really?
- Of course I can.

You guys, I don't know
what I'd do without you.

- [all laugh]
- One for all...

And all for one.

Yeah.

[all laughing]

Don't say anything!

God!

- [Carmen] The Satisfyer?
- No.

- Bee-bee-bee-bee! It's so good.
- But...

- Very good.
- Like that!

I'll only bug you for a second.

Come in.

[Nerea] I didn't know you lived here now.

No, I don't.

I come here for work.

I have a photo sh**t with body paint
in an hour.

And since you're here,
you could help me finish

the back of the canvas.

- Excuse me?
- My ass.

I want you to paint my ass.

Oh.

My assistant is stuck
in a traffic jam for an hour.

It needs to be dry for the photographer.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Look, it's this area right here. Okay?

It's those two.
They need to be the same color,

- so it's not that tricky.
- Mm-hm.

All you have to do is make sure
you brush in the same direction.

Can you do it?

Sure. I mean, of course.

Well, why are you here?

Uh, um... Yeah, yeah.

- Do you remember my friend Valeria?
- Mm-hm.

She needs an illustration
for the cover of her book.

She doesn't have a lot of cash,
but she'll pay as soon as she can.

If there are only a couple
of illustrations, it's not complicated.

- I can have the layout in a few days.
- She's finishing some things,

but she can send them tonight.

I really appreciate it.
I know you're busy.

How do you know that?
You never call me anymore.

- [laughs]
- Did you erase me from your red book?

[laughs] I forgot about that thing.

I don't need it, anyway.
I stalk your Instagram.

- Stalk? You sound so hip. [chuckles]
- And you sound like a joker.

Well, I'm happy to see you. Honestly.

- No filters.
- [laughs]

Hey, Lola, years ago, you would have drunk
a beer factory by yourself.

Now look at you, with your wine.
You've become weak.

- No, actually, I became celiac.
- That's very trendy.

- Really? Do you think you're funny?
- Sh, sh. Look what I've got.

[chuckles]

- Look at the little treasure I've got.
- [gasps]

- Oh, they're from our trip to Vietnam!
- Mm-hm.

They're amazing, Carlos.

I can't believe we rode all over
on single-speed bikes.

We were really crazy.

I also have some from the trip we went on
right afterwards to Morocco.

Oh, my God. [laughs]

Oh! Do you still do that thing...

[makes popping sound]

- [chuckles]
- Yeah, the darts.

Oh!

- Siberian steppe, here we come.
- [laughs]

- [chuckles]
- Oh, I wish!

I miss going
on all of our last-minute trips.

I have to ask for my holidays
three months in advance now.

Growing old really sucks massively.

You look like you're on a roll.

- Is that your presentation?
- No.

I'm helping Valeria
with the marketing for her new novel.

- Oh. Why didn't you tell me?
- [chuckles]

Well, my love, I guess
I didn't wanna influence you, I suppose.

- Right?
- [sighs]

Carmen, the Joaquín Orta thing
is different, okay?

Hey, if we weren't competing,
you know I'd tell you everything.

I know.

Carmen, I love working with you.

And you know it.

[chuckles]

- [sighs]
- [Carlos chuckles]

- [chuckles]
- Tell me what you're thinking for Valeria.

- I miss our brainstorming sessions.
- It's nothing. I don't know.

A web page optimized for sales where
people can learn more about the author.

Okay. And you should start a social media
introduction campaign as well.

- Right?
- Mm!

Or, better...

I think we should.

Oh, should we?

Mm. How about we do this?

- I could do that favor for you.
- Are you sure?

Yes, but I don't want money.

What I want is an apology.

Excuse me?
If anyone should apologize here, it's you.

Oh, me? Why? What did I do?

You graffitied my parents' house
calling me a "d*ke."

- You almost forced me to come out.
- I didn't paint any graffiti.

You were mad
I wanted to do that protest with Gloria.

Well, me and half the association. And?

- It wasn't you?
- No. Of course it wasn't me.

And I'll find out who did it,
because that isn't okay.

[sighs] Well, I don't know what to say.

I thought I could use that as leverage
to make you do the cover for Valeria.

[both laugh]

You don't need any leverage.

No, I'll do it because it's you.

[Valeria] "Her gaze moved from my eyes
to my mouth, waiting for a response."


[door opens]

[door closes]

- I'm sorry. The M-30 was a parking lot.
- No, no. Yeah, I was just leaving.

Um, well, if it's okay,
I'll send you the book synopsis

- and you can find inspiration, okay?
- [chuckling] Okay.

[door closes]

"They stared at each other. The distance
between them was not important,


because their thoughts materialized."

Do you remember Amsterdam?

"They fell to the floor,
wrapping themselves in each other."


That was when we were
kicked out of the hostel, right?

Yes.

[chuckles] It wasn't fair.

- [laughs]
- We were just making out, and in our room.

In front of the four other bunk beds.

I think the audience was the least of it.

I remember it perfectly.

- We could hardly fit in that bed.

- No.

We work well together.

Take this off.

What about a presentation
in a cozy little bookshop?

Oh, I like it.

You're not the only one

And I see that you're not alone.

Uh...

Uh...

May I come in?

Yes. Yes, of course.

Did you really have to show up right now?

I show up at your place
and I find you smart but casual,

drinking wine with
an unbelievably stunning woman.

You come to my apartment
and you find me in my pajamas,

my hair in a bun,
and having a drink with my Satisfyer.

You do it on purpose, huh?

I needed to see you.

I've been feeling really bad
since you left the other day.

I don't think either of us
deserved how that went down.

No.

I'm sorry if I ruined your evening.

I didn't sleep with Virginia.

- Not that night.
- Mmm.

Actually, I haven't slept
with anybody else since I met you.

Because I can't stop thinking about you.

Wow.

- Wow.
- Hmm.

I... I would like to say the same too.

Mmph!

But I did have some company.

Mmm.

[clears throat]

I have always been curious about...

how this thing works.

It's very easy.

You set it to vibrate...

- Mm-hm.
- ...you move it towards the clitoris...

- [buzzing]
- ...and you keep increasing the speed.

[buzzing slowly]

- [buzzing intensifies]
- [gasps]

[buzzing speeds up]

- Like this?
- Yes, like that.

[moaning]

[all gasping]

[sighs]

Nice.

Good. [chuckles]

Very good, Jacinto.
It's just like my parents' firm.

- Thank you very much.
- [laughs] Thank you.

Oh, and, you know...

- Don't breathe a word.
- No problem at all, Nerea. See you later.

[both sigh]

Now I understand
why I like those pictures.

- [both laugh]
- Mmm.

- You're a pervert.
- Maybe.

Art is art.

Mm-hm.

Adrián took them.

- Well, I want one for my house.
- Mmm, we'll see.

[Víctor groans]

- What?
- [sighs] I have to leave.

- No.
- Yes.

- No way.
- Yes.

- Why do you have to work?
- I have an important meeting.

- No. I won't let you go.
- Yes, you will.

- No. No.

[Víctor chuckles]

- Shall we order a pizza?
- [sighs] I don't have time.

- Hmm?

- [chuckles] How could I forget it?

That book had a richer social life
than me at 29.

[laughs]

Why?

- Nothing. I'll tell you later.
- Who with?

- No!
- [Carmen] The Backstreet Boys?

- Okay.
- I'm sorry.

I'm not singing with somebody
who had a crush on Howie.

- Really?
- Sorry. There was more to them

- than just Brian and Nick.
- [both] No.

I don't blame her.
I had a crush on Victoria

- from the Spice Girls.
- And one by Ella Baila Sola?

- Mmph.
- What? They were considered feminists

- at the time.
- Marta and Marilia?

How many songs from the '90s do you know

where they talk so casually
about sleeping with a guy

then say, "Bye, honey,
I had a wonderful time"?

f*ck, how can anyone say no?

- Maybe "Amores de barra."
- Okay.

- No, can we do a different one?
- Seriously?

They talk about lipstick, and I've talked
about it enough because of Joaquín Orta.

- Come on, stop about that already.
- No, I can't. It's just... [groans]

I spied on his ideas. Borja's.

- What?
- How come you didn't do it earlier?

- Really?
- Isn't that what you were gonna say?

- Mm-mm.
- He's gonna screw up big time.

- Are they that bad?
- His ideas would be original

- if we were living in 1980.
- Got it! "Juntos," by Paloma San Basilio!

- Oh, yes!
- No, please.

Oh, my God. They are charging
for this by the hour.

It's just that it's the song Adrián and I
used to sing at karaoke.

You and 90% of people in Spain.
Sorry, darling, you weren't that special.

- He called me to meet with him.
- Poor guy.

He's probably missing you so much.

- Are you ready?
- I don't know.

But it feels really weird
not having him around.

And, I don't know,
he may not be doing very well.

Have you decided if you're gonna
tell him about the novel?

No. Never.

The last thing he needs is to know
that I cheated on him with Víctor.

I bet he lost a lot of weight.

I keep thinking
that he must be skin and bones.

The situation is a very delicate one.

It's too long.

You'd better meet for something short,
in case you both feel awkward.

- You can run off after ten minutes.
- Mm-hm.

Mm-hm.

- I'd better just have a beer.

How can you think about
asking how I'm doing?

Now what?

[all sigh]

- He'll obviously be feeling terrible.
- You have to be more assertive with him.

I can't. God, it'll be awful.

She said "assertive," not negative.
I'm sure it will be fine.

Hello.

Uh, sorry. I'm sorry.

How are you?

- Hello.
- Hi, there.

- Shall we grab a seat?
- Yes. [chuckles]

I'm glad to see you.

I already saw you,
the other day in the metro.

- When?
- No, no, no, you didn't see me.

I tried to reach you, but it was too late.
It seemed like an allegory for us.

How are you?

- Fine. Busy.
- Mmm.

- Uh, two... two beers, please.
- Yes. No!

- No.
- No?

No, uh, a tea would be fine.

- A tea and a beer.
- Okay, then.

[sighs]

- I'm preparing a photo series, and...
- Oh, yeah?

Yes. And I'm working

- for a travel magazine.
- That's great. Good for you.

- Thank you.
- I see you didn't lose any weight.

Uh... No.

Uh, I mean that you look really good.

- [laughs] Thank you.
- [chuckles]

Uh... Yeah.

Yeah, it's been so many years that
I feel naked if I take it off my finger.

I don't know.
With my wedding ring, I feel...

Safe.

Yeah.

I took it off before I came in.

I'm fully ready to move on.

[chuckles] I don't know,
the other day in the metro, I...

I realized...

Your train had left,
and I was still fine without you.

That's good.

Yes.

But before that, Val,
I'd really like to talk to you

about a couple of things
that, well, I've been thinking.

[sighs]

Uh, I was at the... the bank yesterday,
and I was talking to the manager...

- Val?
- I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, yes. Uh, to split our accounts.

- Is that fair?
- Yes, yes, yes. That's perfect.

- Okay.
- Yes.

Maybe, if some day this week
is fine for you,

you can text me and we can meet
and go do it together,

- if that's okay.
- Okay.

♪ But in the end ♪

[doorbell rings]

♪ I forgot to forget...

- What are you doing here?
- Hello to you.

Sorry. Hello, come in.

I came to give you the cover
for your friend's book.

[Nerea] It's beautiful.

- [gasps] I love it.
- Yeah?

- Thank you so much.
- You're welcome.

So, then, is this a bad time?

No. I was just doing some laundry.

Come on in.

Are you going to wash clothes
or make a Molotov cocktail?

[laughs] sh*t.

Nerea, it looks like you've never used
a washing machine in your life.

Oh, so you've never
used a washing machine?

- Didn't your parents teach you how?
- Well, my parents didn't use it either.

- It was Estela.
- Estela? [laughs]

- Please don't laugh.
- I'm sorry.

Don't laugh. I'm trying to be a little
more independent and a little less...

Posh.

- Oh, so you think that too?
- Let's see.

You're almost 30
and you've never used a washing machine.

But, okay. Don't let that discourage you
if you really want to learn.

Well, then, uh... The most important thing

is to separate
your light and dark clothes.

- Mm-hm.
- There.

All right. And...

what happens if I decide to mix
the whites with different colors?

[Olga laughs]

So, what happens is...

your blouses
won't be perfect anymore.

Uh-huh.

- Carmen.
- Hmm?

I thought that...

- Yeah?
- ...we could take this home.

- [laughs] What are you doing?
- Isn't it cool?

No! Will you stop, please?
This is embarrassing. Focus, please.

What do you think about this?
It's a color that may seem strange,

but it's fine,
because I put lipstick on for me,

not to please anybody else. [chuckles]

Then why do you care what I think?

Oh. Yeah, sure. [chuckles]

Yeah, no, I understand. But, uh...

Let me see... let me see this one.

Did you see it? This. This one here.

This one. It's more cheerful. More me.

Actually, I use lipstick
according to how I'm feeling,

not as an accessory.

- That's good to know.
- Uh-huh.

Let's see you try this.

My love, this is not even lipstick.
This is a highlighter stick.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

And, oh!

Look at this. This one here.
This one. This awesome lipstick.

See, this is so light
it just gives you a little shine.

But, I mean... wearing no makeup
is not the same as going naked.

You know? [chuckles]

- Yeah. I do know.
- Oh, nice one.

Because wearing makeup is an option
for a woman, not an obligation.

And reading my campaign file,
which one is that, Carmen?

Because you're knocking all my ideas down.

Yeah. Uh...

What?

[sighs]

- Look, Borja, you can't present that.
- See? See?

- That's why I didn't tell you anything.
- Yeah.

It's humiliating when someone
fixes your work.

- Yes. I know.
- And more if it's you.

- Talking about trust and working together?
- What?

- You spied on my computer.
- No. I mean, wait. Let me explain.

The last thing I want is this
to affect our relationship.

- No.I mean, I agree with that. Mm-hm.
- Okay.

But... What... what are you doing?

Borja. Borja! Where are you going?

Wait for me, please.
You can't leave like this.

Borja, wait for me, please.

Where are you going?

- You go to your place. I'll go to mine.
- Okay.

- We'll see each other at the presentation.
- No...

- This way, we don't mix things. Okay?
- What? Wait...

[sighs] sh*t.

Whatever. Fine.

[Sergio] You're so sexy
when you concentrate.

What are you doing here?

- I haven't heard from you lately.
- That was the intention.

I don't know if you understood,
but it's over.

What's this? Some kind of little trick

- to make me suffer, or...
- You really are a classic assh*le.

Come on, Lola. This is not the first time
this has happened.

- [sighs]
- You tell me it's over, two weeks pass,

I come here
and we have the best f*ck of our lives.

I'll tell you the new story.

I say, "It's over,"
and I don't call you again.

You look for me, and I ignore you
because I have work to do.

- And we can't meet later?
- No.

- You're that busy?
- So busy I had to buy a new planner.

And you know what?

There's no room for you.
