01x09 - Wrap it up

Post by bunniefuu »

-I can't keep doing it.

-Come on, just once more.

I'm too tired, even my arms hurt.

Do it for me, babe.

No really. That's enough.

Let's stop.

Beautiful, it's only a photograph.

Yeah, but I don't understand

why I can't take a Polaroid

and just hand it to you.

-What did we agree on?

-Okay, but

can you explain it to me again?

One more time, and that's it.

Okay, ready?

You click on camera

and on "take photo,"

and then you select a contact.

Once it's selected, attach the photo

and click on "send." See how easy it is?

-Are you listening to me?

-Yes.

Okay, here.

There.

You're invading my privacy.

You can't take pictures of my butt.

-Oh, yeah?

-Yeah.

So what?

Are you going to sue me?

That depends.

What are you willing to do

to keep me from suing you?

-I plead guilty.

-Oh, you do?

Really? This is what you want?

HOW TO SURVIVE BEING SINGLE

Listen, Gonzalo.

I said it once, and I won't say it again.

This is the last time.

I wouldn't f*ck you

if I got paid a million dollars, okay?

I'm not calling for that, Fabiana.

I want to know if you're coming over

because you haven't confirmed

and I have to know

how much to buy.

I'll be there, I guess.

I don't know, I'll go.

Great, see you here. Bye.

We're an intergalactic f*ck away

from being unemployed again.

Well, at least

-Let me see.

-this movie will be better than Dumped.

Well, ready.

I wanted to say this.

I'd love to continue working with you.

I'm setting up a production company

with some friends,

and we're going to develop

a lot of projects.

We don't have a lot of money,

but we'd like you to participate.

We can run your errands,

keep your ledgers

You can count on me,

say no more.

-Really? We can't pay much.

-Of course.

-I can't wait to start my next project.

-And what's next in the world of Lucía Gamero?

A miniseries on the life of

Yolanda Saldivar, Selena's m*rder*r.

That's so lame.

Who would want to watch that?

-A lot of people.

-Sure, I was just saying

Guys, our director has been delayed.

Take a break.

-Okay.

-What's so funny over here?

-Very important.

-No one's going to watch that.

Selena is great, but her k*ller?

Fish!

Fish!

Oh, f*ck!

Hey, what's up, man?

I didn't know you were home.

Hey, Melodi will be staying with us

for a few days.

Come here, honey.

My nose hurts like sh*t.

Was she run over?

What the f*ck happened to her?

No, she took advantage

of Dr. Marquez's four-for-one sale.

She had a nose, a boob, a lipo,

and a butt job all in one operation.

It f*ck up your body,

but what a great deal!

It sucks because she can't lie

on her back or stomach, only on her side.

And I have to drain the wound.

-This bag is for blood and pus.

-Fish!

Please don't make a mess

on the furniture, it's new.

No, don't worry.

Your furniture is in good hands.

Help me

You know who else

is in good hands?

It's Dr. Tickle!

-No, no! as*h*le!

-Sorry, sorry.

-Excuse me, miss

-Where is he?

-Who?

-I know his games. Where is he?

-Who?

-Gonzalo and his bullshit.

Tell him to cut the sh*t.

Open it.

Go ahead. Is there a b*mb inside,

or is it full of glitter?

-Did you order a pizza?

-Does it tap-dance?

Go ahead, open it.

Okay.

-It's pizza.

-Yes.

Miss, 240 pesos, please.

I wish I were a millionaire

and had 240 pesos.

What--? What do you mean,

he's gone?

He can't simply disappear.

Who is he, Criss Angel or Jesus Christ?

Let me know when he turns up.

Where is he?

-I don't know, nobody does.

-Look, we have to do this.

This is the last scene

and we'll be done with the movie.

I know. But nobody knows where he is.

None of his boyfriends know.

And

In this world created by me,

you allowed me to draw

and paint my dreams

just like Hitchcock, Kubrick, Lynch,

Farré, and several other geniuses did.

That's why I am now obliged

to protect this work,

so that it's never corrupted

by ignorant audiences

or by the commercial industry

that devours all.

Because that's what it does,

it devours and devours.

The public isn't ready for this gem.

All I have left to say

to the producers and investors is:

Go f*ck yourselves.

Go f*ck yourselves!

When you see this video,

the film reels will already

be completely destroyed.

And, please, don't look for me.

I'm in a better place.

I'm in Cannes.

What?

I'm gonna talk to Lorenza.

Nobody can shelf me.

Nobody leave, nobody leave.

You know he puts on a suit every day

to "go to the office."

-Poor thing.

-I know.

-Oh, Fabi.

-Oh, no!

Daniel is doing the best he can,

you should give him that.

But it hurts to feel

that he's keeping me out.

-We're supposed to be a team, you know?

-Yeah, but it's Daniel.

He has the emotional intelligence

of a rock!

He's never been good

at asking for help.

-Leave it there.

-Really?

Yes, someone might see it.

They're all opportunities.

Listen. What if I talk to him?

No! No, no, no.

I'll call and pressure him to tell you.

-Yes, incredible.

-Yeah.

Thank you, Fabi.

-Let me know right away. Okay.

-Yeah.

-See you at dinner. All right.

-Fine.

Do you guys want couples therapy?

I'll take food and beer.

I love you!

I was serious.

Surprise, surprise!

Stop it, Gonzo! Enough!

Stop playing jokes on me!

What am I, your clown?

Your buffoon?

Come out of there!

Show yourself, coward! Is this anthrax?

What the f*ck?

What is it this time?

Show yourself, Gonzalo!

Oh, no

I mean I don't

I don't understand

why this sh*t happens to me!

Sebastián, how often do you see

a Mexican, Argentinean

or Latin American movie

in theaters?

Not unless they're romantic.

Good projects are yet to come.

Trust me.

Look, this project wasn't only for me.

It was an opportunity to do

something important in my career, get it?

Yes, I get it.

New things will come.

No. Good things don't fall

from the sky for me.

-You know what you need?

-What?

A vacation. To see things

from a different perspective.

Lie on the beach, look at the horizon,

do yoga, dance, capoeira, something.

The only thing I want is for once,

once in my life,

for things to turn out right for me.

-For me. Is that too much to ask?

-No.

-Is to too much to ask? So there. Why?

-No!

I'll leave you with your anger.

Go ahead and vent.

Grab a pen and write.

Write what's inside of you,

get it out.

Spit that venom out.

But don't dwell on it.

-Don't dwell on it?

-Whatever.

-Aren't you going to tell Mafer?

-Yes, of course I'm going to tell her.

After I resolve my work situation.

Mafer isn't your daughter,

she's your future wife.

You don't have to protect her,

you're a team. She's cool, she'll get it.

Fabiana, nobody asked for your opinion.

You asked me to lie to my best friend.

Come on.

It's my problem too now.

If you don't tell her, I might let it slip.

It just might slip out.

Okay, I'll tell Mafer.

Do whatever you want to, dude.

Fabiana.

He "shelved" you?

No, no, no. He shelved the movie.

That means it won't be coming out.

-It was your fault, right?

-It wasn't my fault.

Stop laughing, this is serious.

Leave me alone--

-Sebas? I told you he'd be here.

-Hold on a second.

I know it's f*cked up

and that this movie was vital to you,

-but you have to be strong, okay?

-Yeah.

I'll move heaven and Earth

to get you auditions.

-Yes, but

-Quiet. Don't say a word, please.

Take that sad look off your face.

-I need coffee and Wi-Fi.

-Okay, I'll come with you.

I'll ask the Yolanda producers

if they cast Selena's brothers yet.

-Excellent idea.

-Thanks, but actually

-Iñarritu

-It'll be fine.

tell Cuarón I need to talk to Del Toro.

This is awful!

I feel like I was hit by a truck.

But you know what?

I'm really stoked because I'm gonna be

hotter than the Kardashians.

That's great, my Kardashian.

-They've got nothing on me.

-Nothing at all.

-Poor thing.

-She looks terrible.

-She's clearly a victim of patriarchy.

-For real.

Sebastián. Today was the last day

of filming, wasn't it?

Yes, actually,

there won't be any movie.

What? Are you for real? Why?

Are you all right? Relax, Sebi.

I'm here for you, brother.

We're here for whatever you need.

-I'm fine. Relax, people.

-You can tell me your troubles.

I'm a good listener. Five hundred per hour,

I have to pay my electric bill.

Don't worry, I'm fine. It was a good opportunity,

and I had the Farré experience.

-Who are you?

-What did you do to my friend?

I put a spell on him.

Okay, everybody,

try what I made in my cooking class.

Is it gluten-free?

-Sebas.

-Thanks, excuse me.

I can't believe you're taking

cooking lessons.

-Not really.

-It's excellent.

I'm going out with a chef.

Well, it's cool

that you're dating people with abilities.

Yes, I realized it was time

to raise my standards. Want some?

Julieta, how's your band

coming along?

It's great. We're playing

for a foundation tomorrow.

-Fabulous.

-That's cool.

Sofi also does catering,

in case you need her.

Yeah, sure. We do.

If you want, I can help you.

-Sure, baby. Whatever you want.

-Okay

Hi. What's up?

Sorry, babe. Billy wants the report

on market closings.

So you're not coming?

I don't think so, I'm not done yet.

I understand.

You have to protect your job.

I'll call you later. Bye.

Once you know we can do it.

Okay? Do you like it, baby?

It's almost ready

Finally alone.

Stop it, Gonzo.

What's going on?

What's the catch to all this?

Where's the dramatic twist, the trick?

What's the catch?

-What do you mean?

-What's the trick?

It's a pinch of nutmeg

to give it fragrance.

Check it out.

-Gonzo!

-That must be Sofi.

Gonzo!

Hi. Nice to meet you, I'm Sofia.

Hey, nice top. I love it.

Hi!

-How are you?

-I'm glad you're here.

-Did you start?

-Yeah.

It's very balanced.

Can you taste the underlying spice

and berry flavors?

What else do you detect?

-Wood?

-Yes, a bit.

-Smoked.

-Pepper.

Good.

Fish!

-Coming! Love! Sorry, my friends.

-What the f*ck!

I beg your pardon.

My girlfriend just had a triple operation,

and she practically can't move.

She can't even wipe--

-Stop, Fish!

-That's enough!

Don't wait for me. Listen.

I loved your wine lecture.

Welcome to the group.

Let's continue.

This is a good pinot noir, or black pinot,

because these grapes are from Tuscany.

Sofi is one of the youngest

triple-platinum certified sommeliers

-in the whole world.

-I am the youngest.

Wow!

Did I tell you

that I'm doing my Master's?

That's not it.

-It's this one.

-Thanks.

-Careful, Fabi.

-Don't mix them, Fabi.

My master's on

-Carl Jung's thought?

-No! I did my thesis on Jung.

I can help if you need it.

I studied psychology

before cooking.

It really inspires me

when I create dishes.

sh*t. I was pissing

through my ears.

-Sorry, babe.

-Wake up, dude!

-Yes, dear.

-Mafer, is Daniel coming or?

No, he's working.

-Who's this?

-Easy. Stand here.

How many operations

have you had?

Operations? None. Why?

You're perfect.

How nice. What can I say?

It's genetic,

my mom's Swedish.

You know who could use

a pair of bubble boobs?

You.

She's right, Fabi.

You could use some breasts.

-Yeah, girl.

-A bit bigger.

-It's just a comment.

-Nah.

I'm perfectly satisfied with

my boobs.

I forgot, I have to study

for my Master's tomorrow.

-No way.

-Don't go, Fabi.

Stay and try another wine, Fabiana.

Sofia is just joining the group,

you can't go now.

I don't drive very well at night.

Fabiana!

She took the glass with her.

We're out of milk.

Can you buy some?

-After work?

-Sure.

I'll stop on my way home.

-Slim, lactose-free.

-Slim, lactose-free.

Isn't it getting late?

For work?

Billy Boy is going to k*ll me!

-Slim, lactose-free!

-Yes, sure.

Bye.

-What are you doing with that?

-I found it in a box.

No. You don't want to read that.

Stop it, I'm about to finish.

Wait, please,

I don't want you to

Wait a minute, Sebas! Leave me alone!

-What?

-Seriously.

Are you crying?

-No.

-You're sh1tting me. Is it that bad?

This is beautiful.

Why don't you make a movie

based on this screenplay?

No. It's

the corniest movie,

written by someone who clearly

doesn't know anything about life.

The industry needs screenplays like this.

Something innocent, sweet, romantic.

Nobody would produce such a movie.

How many producers have read

this screenplay?

It's not what they're looking for.

Someone's sabotaging himself.

Look, look, look.

I'm not sabotaging myself.

I just think there are

more important things in life.

Now I have you.

I want to give myself

the chance to enjoy life.

To go back to playing tennis

and visiting museums.

Eating good food.

Can we

enjoy life, period?

We can enjoy life

period.

The office is chaos right now, babe.

The Dow Jones is down.

That's too bad.

I swear, there are people running

all over the place.

We're on fire,

you wouldn't believe this

What's that?

It's Billy Boy.

He's trying to win over some clients

from the state of Tabasco.

Good, that's good.

Well

I'll leave you to it.

-Bye. I love you.

-Don't forget the slim, lactose-free milk.

I won't forget.

Slim, lactose-free. I'll get it.

Yes. Okay. I love you, dear.

Me too.

Hey. What are you doing

in the dark?

I didn't realize it was nighttime.

Really?

So you didn't play tennis.

I stayed and worked

on the screenplay.

Good. Do you want something to eat?

Yes.

Thanks.

I'm going to cook

for the first time in my life.

Believe it or not.

A pinch of nutmeg

to give it fragrance.

-Hi, dear.

-Hi.

That's not the milk

I asked you for.

-What?

-I said slim, lactose-free.

That's almond milk.

I said it several times.

-It's organic and vegan, you like this stuff.

-But it's not what I asked you for.

I think you're exaggerating,

calm down.

How can I calm down when I can't

trust you with a simple errand?

We'll try this. That's all.

The problem

is that this isn't real milk.

The carton says "milk,"

but everybody knows

that almond milk isn't real milk.

It's a lie.

You know the worst part?

In spite of knowing that it's not milk,

you still bring it home for me to drink

and pretend I love it

when I know that this isn't milk.

If I'd known that almond milk

offended you so much, I would have--

You would have brought

what I asked for?

It tastes like milk.

But don't worry,

I'll go out and get what you want.

It's not the milk, Daniel.

What is it then, Mafer?

The brand?

I can bring you a damn cow

so you can have real milk.

Or better yet, you can go and get it yourself.

Because quite frankly, I'm tired. sh*t.

Tired of what?

Mafer, don't start.

No, no, no.

Tired of what? Tell me.

-Tired of what?

-Yes.

Tired of what? Of all this

damn pressure on me all the time.

When it isn't you, it's my dad.

sh*t! When did anybody turn to me

and ask what I want?!

What do you think I do

all f*cking day at the office?

I don't know.

You tell me.

Because as far as I know,

you were fired last week.

What do you do?

What do you do when you tell me

you're going to the office?!

-Why didn't you say anything?

-The question is, why didn't you tell me?

You didn't tell me you were fired.

-I have a plan.

-What plan?

I'm setting up my firm,

we'll pay for the wedding with that.

You said your dad was helping you.

I don't need him.

This is our wedding, and I'll pay for it.

That's your problem, Daniel.

You don't need anybody's help.

But the real problem

is that you lied to me.

-I know about the coke too.

-Oh, no, not that.

That was a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

My presentation was great.

-I don't know what you mean!

-I was tricked.

Do you hear yourself?

I only wanted you to be happy.

When did you stop trusting me?

I've never stopped trusting you,

we're a team.

From the moment

you made decisions for both of us,

we stopped being a team.

f*ck.

That's why it's called Napolitan.

Because the king of Naples

couldn't decide on one flavor.

-You're making this up.

-No, I'm not!

I know things.

I went to the university.

Some bored Italian didn't know

what to call it, so he named it that.

What's up?

Sign, please.

Are you serious?

My contract?

A great contract.

Here.

You know where.

Yeah.

I'm leaving.

Hurry!

I'm going.

-Are you leaving without this?

-No, I'm not.

Good luck, I have faith in you.

They're going to say yes. Okay?

Thank you.

Okay.

I love you.

So do I.

I love you.

-Now. I love you. Bye.

-I love you.

Okay.

Thanks.

Hi. Sorry I'm late.

ALMOST AT THE END

BY SEBASTIÁN YBARRA

-You wrote a movie?

-Yes.

Darling, there's no reason

for you to write a movie.

I'm setting up auditions

with important directors.

I don't want to do my movie

with an important director.

I want to direct it myself.

But you've never directed

a movie before.

That's precisely why you are all here.

Rodrigo, I need your insight on set.

I'd like for your production company

to help us.

-Yeah.

-Lucía, you've always been honest to me.

Lorenza, you have all the contacts, and

And who's going to pay for all this?

I still have some money

from the Dumped chips campaign.

It's going to be an independent movie.

Yes, but we'll compensate

by making the movie we want to make.

Very independent.

You can count on me!

-Yeah?

-Yeah.

May I direct the second unit?

Is this the final screenplay,

or can we make suggestions?

This thing's delicious.

What's Vadhir doing here?

I'm waiting for Diego Luna, you know?

So we can read our parts.

Diego Luna isn't coming.

It wasn't Luna?

I get them mixed up.

It's Boneta.

Neither of them is coming.

No Diegos.

Isn't this the movie

with one of the two Diegos?

As I was saying,

this is Sebastián Ybarra's movie.

Who the f*ck is Sebastián Ybarra?

Me.

Nice to meet you. Sounds great.

Let me check my schedule.

-There is no date yet. We can adjust it.

-We can? Perfect.

Sounds super cool.

Something independent, kind of indie.

Do you have any problem if I stay here?

I already ordered a burger.

Yes, if you want. Stay and finish your burger.

And I'll tell them the story.

Santi, what a great guy.

-Sebastián.

-Let's have a brainstorming session.

More than a story,

it's a celebration of life.

Well, it's more than just a theme.

I'd like to tell a story about the loss

of innocence, in a certain context

Like in the movie Lolita?

The girl is throwing herself

at the old guy,

and he's freaking out.

Love, get the champagne.

Love?

Where are you?

I'm looking for you,

where'd you go?

I'm buying supplies

so we can stay in for three days.

-Here you go. You're welcome.

-Thank you.

That means I have time

to prepare a surprise for you.

You're going to surprise me?

Yep.

Actually, it's ready.

But since you didn't tell me you were

going out, you have to send me a selfie.

You're nuts if you think I'm going

to send you a selfie. No way!

I relented to using a cell phone,

but I won't betray my principles.

See? It's not so hard.

We have to solve this problem

with selfies.

I can't go too long

without seeing your face.

I want to look at you

from now until you're wrinkled.
