(MESSAGE)

Melenas, don’t stress if you’re late
because of the painting thing.

We’re already getting started.

Hey, beautiful.

Say hi to the best girlfriend
in the world.

Hi, best girlfriend in the world.

(GASPS)

Picasso, don’t mess with me.

We look amazing, dude.

JON: Here comes the h*m* theorist.

ASIA: I LOVE YOU!!!

(ERASES MESSAGE)

"Yuri Manga is about love stories.

Well, and sex, but between girls.

One of the coolest mangas is Naraniki.

It was the first one I read
because my friend recommended it,

and honestly, it was a total revelation.

In it, Nara, the protagonist, meets Tetsu."

They’re coming.

ASIA: What a pair of... hot guys.
See you soon!!!

(GIRL) I’m freaking out.

- That’s insane! Oh my God!

Hey, I know I’m hot,
but chill out a bit, okay?

You okay?
Totally. Why?

There’s a video going around the school.

Weren’t you quitting the pills?

- Yeah. The shrink’s lowering my dose
little by little,

like with junkies.

- But are you feeling better?
- Yeah.

Relax, relax. What were you
gonna tell me about Jeremy?

- Oh, right. There are two options.

Either Jeremy’s hyposexual,
which is a delay

in sexual hormones.

- It’s possible he has some kind of delay,

but I’m not sure if it’s that.

- Well, the second option is that
he’s into someone else.

- Okay, let’s see.

- Look, I’ve studied it.

These are the girls who might
have something

with Jeremy.
- Oh, Iria,

stop with the presentations already.
- Vega.

I don’t wanna say it because
I don’t wanna sound sexist.

- They’re acting like sluts.
I’ll say it.

But it’s not her.

It’s someone who’s definitely
not in that presentation.

- Dolores, the bald girl from 1st grade?
I’ve got her.

- No, no, no. Let’s go.
Let’s go, Iria.

- I’m telling you, I’ve studied
it in detail.

- We’re already late.
- Jeremy.

- What’s up? Did you change
your hairstyle?

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

My hair’s just dirty today.

- Have you seen the video?
- What video?

How the hell did a video of us
end up going around

on the posh kids’ phones?

Some joker sends it to their
friend to watch,

Relax, it’s not porn. It’s just a couple
of make-out sessions.

It’s a hidden phone in the room,
and I made sure

to pick it up at the entrance
and put it in the drawer.

Maybe someone slipped it in.

Someone who knows the tricks
because they sneak it into school.

You’re freaking out if you think
I get off on

seeing myself screw
and seeing this guy less.

Look, you’d better.

Recording that with a damn hidden phone
is a crime.

And spreading it could land you in jail.
How would I spread it?

Asia, how would I spread it? Damn it.

I’m the last person who wants
this mess to get out,

especially with Hamza calling me a f*g.

That’s what you’re worried about, Koldo?

I can’t believe you, mate. I just can’t.

Instead of fighting among ourselves,

we should be going after
the one who planted the phone.

You tell me who.

There was no camera, Carlota, relax.

They definitely recorded it themselves.

They’re into mermaid threesomes,
that weird stuff.

Cayetano, are you the as*h*le
who spread our video?

What the hell are you talking about?
I didn’t even have my phone.

I left it in the box, like everyone else.
- My a*s!

Yeah.
When I went to get it, it was gone.

With all the police chaos,
some smartass took it.

We didn’t record anything.

We’re freaking out thinking there might’ve been
a camera and we got recorded.

- Let's just leave it, guys.
So, a camera just appeared out of nowhere?

Maybe your gross boyfriends planted it there.

Shut your f*cking mouth! Shut the hell up!

(TALKING OVER EACH OTHER)

Do you want to go to the principal’s office?

You know what? For the first time, I actually want to go
to the damn principal’s office.

Didn’t you say you had your phone
in your jacket?

Well, yes.

Did Asia tell you they were hooking up?

Since when?
-It started in the summer.

Asia doesn’t want to admit it,
but it’s more than just a fling.

It’s a relationship.

-But how can it be a relationship
if there are three of them?

Are they also...?
-No, Koldo’s straight.

-Well, I’m not so sure he’s that straight.
-Things aren’t just black or white.

There are shades of gray.

-No, I mean, I don’t care

if people are into whatever they’re into, but...

I don’t know, there’s no need to hide it.

-Good morning.

Let’s take our seats, please.

-Esteban’s looking hotter every day.

-This week is the finals
of the Math Olympics.

The winner gets the scholarship
from the Statistics Foundation.

-Have you graded
the last tests yet?

-Yes, and I’m really happy,
you’ve finally stepped up. Well done.

-If they’re giving out free cash,

you do your homework.

-It’s a scholarship, not free cash.

Guys, this is important.

Only two finalists can be chosen.

They’ll have to pick a topic
and present it to the judges.

Okay?

Alright. Let me announce the winners.

They are Pelayo Castro and Asia Pons.

-Nice.

-Are they not here?

I’m going to take attendance,
there’s a bit of chaos

with all the empty seats.

Alright, Lele Aguado.

Not here either?

He was the first one I read,
my friend Ikatu recommended him.

And honestly, it was a real discovery.

In it, Nara, the protagonist, meets Tetsu,

a mysterious girl who’s new to her class.

And it’s just wonderful, honestly.

Anyway, if you like it and want me
to tell you more...

-I’m going to pretend
I didn’t see that phone.

I don’t know why we even have that rule
if you all break it anyway.

-It’s just stupid.

As if there aren’t teachers
addicted to their phones too.

Alright. What did you want to talk about?

-Look, Lele,
I’m going to be clear and direct.

You and I will never be anything
more than teacher and student,

patient and therapist,
minor and adult.

Is that clear?
-Yes.

The message I sent you
was because I was at a party,

I was wasted and... Well.

-Is that why you quit therapy?

You should’ve told me
so we could work through it.

What’s happening to you
isn’t what you think.

It’s called positive transference.

Freud explained it
over a century ago.

You think you feel desire
for your therapist, but in reality,

you’re projecting onto me
what you wish to be.

It’s not me you like, Lele,
it’s yourself.

-I’m not so sure about that.
-I am.

Psychology is a science.

Look, maybe it’s a good idea
for you to resume therapy.

We can talk to a colleague.

Lele, you’ll figure it out
when you find someone

you like and who likes you back,
no transference involved.

-Someone liking me?

From where? School?

If they’re not looking at me weird,

they’re not even bothering
to ask about my pronouns.

-Sweetheart, the world for someone
your age isn’t just school anymore.

You have a phone
that makes it much bigger.

The right person will come along, Lele,
you’ll see.

And you’ll know it’s them
because you won’t be afraid to tell them

how you feel.

-Are you sure none of you
posted the video and regretted it?

Oh, come on, we’re not into porn,
Brianda, for God’s sake!

Yeah, you’re into other things.

-Let’s drop it already.
No, no, not me. Damn it!

What happened was a one-night thing.

We were drunk...
What do you mean, one night?

What are you saying?
Don’t mess with me.

Look. Alright. Damn,

it’s not like we’re the ones

who committed the crime.

Do you know who could’ve recorded it?

-Pelayo. That’s why they fought.

Wait. Pelayo was with Carlota
in that room earlier.

But I think
Carlota had no clue.

That’s not proof.
What more proof do you need

than talking to Pelayo
and having him laugh in my face?

Chill, chill.
You know that’s not proof.

And the thing is, there’s not
much we can do

because it happened
outside of school.

Fine. Let’s see if the police
take us more seriously than you lot.

Cops. Just what we needed.

-Asia, from what you’re saying,
it’s not exactly an 18+ video either.

-If you want, at most,
we can talk to your parents.

This isn’t about parents,

we want you to expel Pelayo from school.

You know we can’t expel someone

for what happened at a party.

-If you play with fire,
you might get burned.

Now it’s our fault? No.

Let me remind you, our damn
privacy was stolen.

What privacy, Asia?

The one you share all the time
on social media?

Look, I’m just blown away by you, Brianda.

Seriously?

I don’t get the thing with your phone.

Koldo.

Damn.

Come in.

The room is clearly visible
in the video.

If there are more videos from the party,
I don’t even know.

Oh, wait.

Maybe in one of them, Jeremy’s with
the girl he likes.

-Yeah, maybe there’s one
where he’s making out with me.

Look, girl, with that stupid ice game,
he stuck his tongue

down to my uvula and now
he says he’s into me.

But I didn’t do anything.

If the guy has bad taste,
it’s not my fault.

Don’t go getting all snarky with me.

-So then,
you’re the one he likes.

That’s cool, girl.

-But you were dying to kiss him.

Just a heads-up,
his tongue’s rough.

-What I was dying to do was hook up,
you already know that.

But whatever, I’ll find myself
another candidate.

This one’s for you.

-No, no, I don’t like him.
Don’t get it twisted.
I don’t like him at all.

Zero, zero.

-Jeremy, come here.
Sit next to Bárbara.

-Hi.
-Hi.

-Good morning, class.
Let’s all sit down, please.

In groups of three, in trios.

(LAUGHTER)

Don’t you know
about artificial intelligence?

That damn video was uploaded by a robot.

That’s it.

Alright, let’s see.

You have specimens of cephalopods,
like Octopus vulgaris.

We’re going to dissect them.

They’re your regular octopuses.

You remove the lid.
Keep it under the box.

Go on. Very good.

Octopuses have three hearts.

Two are branchial.

Their function is to pump blood
to the...

Someone.

-Gills?
-Thank you.

Thanks for paying attention.
To the gills. Very good.

-Bro, that g*y sh*t with Jon, huh?

-A guy who’s completely
independent from the systemic

and whose role is to nourish
the one in the center

completely independently,
without interacting with each other.

From your faces, I can’t tell
if you’re understanding any of this.

-I’m not.
-I am.

Those two hearts don’t even touch.

And forget about exchanging fluids.

See?

(LAUGHTER)

Yeah, yeah. We’ve all seen it.

You say that so proudly?
- Shouldn’t have recorded it.

Yeah, that’s what I tell the b*stard
who did it and the jerks

who kept sharing it.
Don’t drag us into this.

Shut up!
Calm down,

this isn’t a fish market.

Haven’t you ever gotten drunk?

We had a few drinks
and hooked up. That’s it.

But no g*y stuff.

Damn it!

She threw an octopus at you, bro.
-Let me see.

Asia, damn it.

Please, that was a living being.

And we respect school property.

Another one gone.
Alright. Okay. Very good.

Let’s focus.

Octopus vulgaris.
Don’t be vulgar yourselves.

A little respect.

-Outside of school, it’s not
our responsibility, but...

-If they’re doing threesomes,
that’s their problem.

We don’t cover that
in the curriculum.

-A threesome isn’t a problem.

They were recorded
and shared without their consent.

They’re minors.
Even if it’s just kissing,

I’m not sure
it’s not a crime.

-It’s a crime that these kids
share their whole lives

on social media.

They go to class? They post it.
They get wasted? They post it.

They have a threesome? They post it.
Nothing fazes them.

-I don’t think
the solution is to demonize

social media.
It has a lot of good things.

We should educate them about it, instead.
-Oh, again with this “we need to educate” spiel.

We’re their teachers.
We’re here to teach.

-But we’re not here
to ban things either.

Confiscating phones
doesn’t work.

In every class,
I take them away from a couple of kids.

-If it’s not our responsibility,
we should talk to the parents about it.

-We’ve literally been told
to leave them out of this.

Well, I think
it’s better to wait and see

what consequences all this has.
-Oh, the usual ones.

The guys come out looking like studs,
and Asia gets called a sl*t.

-She's got the Math Olympics final
this Friday against Pelayo.

-I hope all this doesn’t
affect her.

-No matter what happens,

I’m telling you,
they’ll post it on social media.

-Well, let’s leave it here. We all
have a lot of things to do.

-So, you’re not so into
banning

everything now, huh, bro?

-What I’m proposing
is that we do this right.

Signal jammers.

We put them in class. I’ve seen them
online for really cheap.

Come on, push it. Five more.

-Hey, you can talk to me.

-I can’t breathe if I talk
and run at the same time.

-Look, I’m just saying,
I know the reason we hooked up was

because you were high on M.

-Did I say that?

I don’t remember. Sorry.

That stuff messed me up bad.

-Have you told your boyfriend?
-No.

What about you?
-Me? No way, that’s your business.

-It wasn’t a problem.
It was just ‘cause I was wasted.

But thanks.
I don’t remember the hookup.

But I remember what we talked about.
And you were a good friend.

Did I say that right?
-Yeah.

-Okay.

-Let's go!

What are you looking for, bro?

You scared me, man.

You haven’t seen my phone, have you?

I left it in the room
where Carlota and I were.

And it’s got some of my stuff on it.
With all the police chaos,

when I went back for it, it was gone.

And it’s passcode-locked, man,
no one can unlock it.

Did you make a dirty video
or something?

No. Nothing.

Hey.

-And the rest of the group?

-They’re sick.

-What’s wrong with them?

-Their period and stuff.

I told them
I’m no good at lying.

-Look, Iria, calm down.

Tell me what’s going on.

-Asia, Jon, and Koldo
aren’t talking to us because of the video.

Pelayo and Carlota
don’t even want to see us for the same reason.

Dani says if the others aren’t coming,
he’s out too.

And Marina, I don’t know. She was acting weird.

Maybe she’s actually on her period.
Who knows.

-Okay.

Why did you stay?

Well, something happened with a friend,
and I think

I would’ve talked to Silvia about it.

Since I don’t really have
many other friends.

-I think you do have more friends,

but you can try talking to me
about it.

What’s the guy’s name?

-How do you know?
-There’s always a guy.

-Well, he likes my friend,
and not me.

-Look. If you’re asking me if it’s worth
fighting with a friend over a guy

at my age, I’d say no.

At your age...

I don’t know what I’d say.

-It’s just that it’d be great for her.

She’s been through a rough patch,
you know?

And, well, I didn’t really like him
that much anyway.

-Look, Iria, sometimes we deny
a problem until we minimize

its importance to fit our desires.

I guess you want
your friend to be happy.

-Well, there are plenty of guys
out there.

And true friends are harder to find.

-Friends like you, for sure.

I’d want a friend like you.

-Thanks.

Jon has sent you a video

Here are 10 things
I love about my boyfriend.

One: he’s really handsome.

Two: he’s really sporty, like me.

Three: he’s great at math.

Four: he has lots of friends.

Five: he’s there for me
through thick and thin.

JON: We should be just as proud
of what we have.

ASIA: Jon, meet me at the park?
I’ve got an idea.

Run, run, come on, come on.

Back.

How to win Barbara?

Did you really make a
presentation about this?

-I do it for everything.
A bit of OCD I have.

Let’s see.

One: Total black look.

No patterned shirts or checks.

- So, she likes classy guys.

- Vampires.

Two: Humor.

She loves jokes that no one gets.

Can’t help you there.

And three: She’s obsessed with TV shows.

- I’m watching Los Protegidos ADN.

- No way, not a chance.

She’s more into true crime,
serial K*llers.

But then again, she’s such a romantic—
she goes to watch the sunset

at Parque de las Siete Tetas.

- I don’t think this is gonna work.

But thanks.

It’s cool to talk about this stuff with you.

I don’t know. I thought you might get mad.

I mean, we’ve hung out a few times.

- Well, it’s because you were new and alone.

But it was just as friends.

- Yeah, me too. Just friends.

(MESSAGE)

ASIA: Bestieeeee, can you come
to the crappy park?

- Hey, can you wrap this up? A friend needs me.

Oh, and one last thing.

See if there’s any soap to soften
your tongue or something.

- Why?

- Never mind. Don’t listen to me.

And hey, if it doesn’t work out,
just be yourself.

The way you are is pretty cool.

- You’re the cool friend.

- Come on, let’s go. Let’s head to 14.

Yeah, I messed up.

I freaked out when I found out
people knew

and I said some dumb stuff.
-A couple—no, a lot, Koldo.

We’d already moved past how weird
our thing was, man.

We were better than ever,
but if people find out,

we’re back to being freaks.

Damn, but people don’t get what
it’s really about.

That’s why we called you,
to explain it to them.

They’re gonna talk anyway,
so why not do it ourselves, right?

Look, we don’t owe anyone
an explanation,

but we can totally use this to our advantage—
get followers or something.

I’m not following, babe.

What are they doing here?
-Did you get the good camera?

Yeah, but if we mess up my sister’s aspiring
influencer lighting, she’ll k*ll me.

- Oh. Didn’t know we were all meeting up.

- What’s this about, Asia?

Today's topic:

Videos.

"Are you looking for the best way
to unlock your phone

without losing data?

At Saul House, we’ll show you
the best step-by-step method.

The first thing you need to do
to unlock your phone

is download an Unlocker program.

I’ve left the one I use in
the video description.

Once the program is installed,

connect your phone to the computer.

The program will..."

PELAYO: Have you gotten over
your freak-out? I love you.

We just need to trick the
algorithm into pushing

our videos into the trending couples section
and boom—we’re set.

Cool idea, right?

Wait, let me get this straight—
I’m kinda freaking out.

You’re saying that because you
know some equations,

we can get tons of likes by talking
about our throuple drama?

Yes.

No, you’ve lost it, Asia. No way,

but I’m so done feeling like crap

when half the school calls me a sl*t.

And if I’m a sl*t, I’m a damn proud one.

Besides, people on social media are way
more open-minded.

Look at what’s trending online.

Normal? Nah.

Unique? That’s what people want to follow.

If this works, I’ve got a k*ller topic

for the Math Olympics. I’m screwed against
Pelayo, though.

He’s an idiot at everything except numbers.

And what are we doing here?

These videos need to look amazing,

like, really amazing.

You’re great at editing.

You, Iria, can help with scripts—

you ace Spanish class.

And Silvia, you always helped her with that.

Yeah, but I’ve got 43 followers online,

and 20 are second cousins from the village.

Don’t stress, that’s our problem.

Marina, we’ll need a Community Manager.

And I’m swamped with the Math Olympics.
And you...

I’ll share it online because I’m an influencer,

and you’ll gain followers.

Don’t get ahead of yourself, though—

you’ve got followers from nearby schools
because you’re cute.

But yeah, we could use the help.

You know what?

I only share stuff from my friends.

Damn, my bad!

Thing is, you might owe us a favor.

Look, I really think you didn’t know

about our video, but I bet Pelayo did

and he’s messing with you.

My boyfriend has nothing to do
with your damn video,

and I want nothing to do with you.

So, when do you want to do this thing?

Hi, I’m Asia.
I’m Jon.

Koldo.
And we’re a throuple.

Like a couple, but with three.

Yeah, we go out together,
and we do everything together.

Well, not everything. I mean, not everything.

Let’s clear this up
so everyone’s on the same page.

I’m bi,
but Koldo’s super straight.

So, he and I don’t even touch.

And on this account, we’re going to tell you
what it’s like to be a throuple.

First, the rules
have to be crystal clear,

like in any relationship.
Second, communication.

No one-word answers,
express everything.

Yeah.
Exactly.

And third and most important,
love.

These three are so pathetic.

-Look, they’re already there.

-Hey, you’ve got tons of likes.

It’s been shared by two accounts
you follow.

They’re all a bunch of perverts.

Well, the script makes it clear
this isn’t about the perversion.

-Everyone’s watching it.

Then let them watch this too
and tag us.

Me gusta = Likes

WEDNESDAY

THURSDAY

And being at the same school,
Zurbarán High,

have things ever happened
in the bathrooms or common areas

of the school or not?

This is being watched, you know.

I hope the teachers don’t see it.

I hope not,
because there’s class tomorrow.

They should cover their ears.
I’m neither confirming nor denying.

That’s it.
-That’s a clear yes.

Teachers at Zurbarán, you know
you’ve got to be careful

with these three.
-Great.

-"We’ve got to give them some space."

-Now we’re the school
of The Throuple.

-Well, I admit I don’t understand
much about these modern relationships,
FRIDAY

but we can’t interfere.
It’s their life.

-The parents’ cooperative

thinks we should
get involved.

-I disagree.
It’s their business.

If they’re fine with it,
the rest of us can’t say anything.

-Tell that to Carmina,
who’s already made sure

the Math Olympiad Foundation

hears about it.
-Okay.

So her son can score points.
Nice move.

Her son doesn’t need it,
Pelayo’s a brilliant student,

even if you don’t like him.
-Asia is too.

And she’s been studying here
on scholarships for years.

It’s been a bit harder
for her, though.

(SIGHS)

I haven’t seen your follow
on The Throuple account.

I’m more into being followed
than following.

But the videos are good.

Well, coming from you,
that’s a real compliment.

You know what Silvia
used to tell me?

That you and I were alike.

That we were
just as proud as each other.

She was good at reading people, huh?

She said she wanted
to be a psychologist.

I don’t know. Sometimes...

I walk down the street
and feel like I see her.

She’d been saying she wanted to be
a psychologist since she was little.

And she also said Pelayo was
a real as*h*le, a total as*h*le.

She never wanted to tell me why.

But I know she tried to tell you,
and you didn’t want to listen.

Enough, Asia.

Silvia wasn’t my friend anymore.

And you never were.

What happened with Pelayo
is my business.

And it’s not like that, damn it.

Well, I hope so.
Because of him,

you lost the one who was
your real best friend.

And those who were starting
to be, too.

(WHISTLES)

(BOTH) What?

The geometric representation
of the golden ratio

is the Fibonacci spiral.

What’s interesting
is its application in the stock market.

Though I’ve adapted the model
to my generation

with the purchase
of online cryptocurrencies.

What the hell is he saying?

Biology has revealed...
-I don’t know.

I don’t care either.
-What a jerk.

That topic’s university-level.

There’s no way he can win.

But you don’t need
to reinvent the wheel.

You need to take your presentation slides
to the control room.

You’ve on at five minutes.

Okay.
What’s the topic?

The social media algorithm.
Well, more or less.

It turned out f*cking great.
Your friends are going to give her

this scholarship and next year’s too.
You’ll see.

Good luck.
Thanks.

...an incalculable advantage...

You’ll win for sure.

What Pelayo’s talking about
doesn’t even make sense.

-Girl, I’ll handle the presentation
and the video stuff, okay?

Good luck.
Thanks.

What we need to do is create
an equation to validate the date.

And with this, we could already know
whether to buy or sell.

♪ No one who idolized
the edge of nothingness. ♪

♪ I let them be the ones
who validated me. ♪

♪ For weeks, I’ve been pretending
that nothing gets to me. ♪

♪ That’s what I always aspire to... ♪
-Bárbara.

-But what are you doing on my boob?

-I didn’t know you had a boob here.

Nothing. I came to watch the sunset.

I love how the city looks.
I come here a lot.

-Well, I’ve never seen you.

-Well, now you’ve seen me.

Look, I was reading a bit.
Ted Bundy.

He k*lled women
between 15 and 25 years old.

So, you could be his type, huh?
(LAUGHS)

No, no. It was a joke.

One of those jokes
that no one gets, you know.

-Well, I’m off.

You should make very exclusive sales,

targeting established companies
to avoid overuse

that could render it obsolete.
But first, testing.

I’ve been analyzing the value charts
of ten currencies

and found identifiers...
Hey.

...that show
I’m on the right track.

-Do you have the projector stuff?
-Yeah. I’m doing

audiovisual practice
because I started late.

I switched electives.
I dropped Philosophy.

-Oh. Why’s that?

-Nothing. Just a mix-up.

But anyway, it’s all good now.

-I brought Asia’s presentation,
it needs to be downloaded.

-Okay.

...the last five years

and mark the trend
accurately for me.

-Can you hand it to me?
-Yeah, sorry. Here.

We found the trend,
the formula.

We need to create an equation
to determine

if it’ll be valid in the future.
That’ll tell us whether to buy or sell.

All we need to do
is adjust everything.

Hey, you like manga, right?

I saw you with one the other day
that I’m obsessed with.

-It was a friend’s. Not mine.

So, shall we test the presentation?

...the information
is easily detectable.

And this is how this equation
achieves something

that’s one of the hardest things
in mathematics.

Changing the formula.

Thanks.

(APPLAUSE)

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Well done, Pelayo. Hey.

-Your boyfriend’s really smart.

Maybe too smart, huh?
-Excuse me?

He must be really clever

to convince you
he deserves to be with you.

You know who’s not dumb? Me.

So stop treating me
like I’m head over heels, okay?

Thanks a lot, Pelayo.

-If we’re all telling you, girl...
-It’s Asia’s turn.

-...take the hint.

I’m going to talk about
the social media algorithm.

The social media algorithm.
Well, go ahead.

Dulceida probably earns more
than crypto guys.

Lately, I’ve been trying to see
if you can mess with

the famous algorithm
behind social media.

And well, I didn’t do it alone.

This is Koldo and this is Jon.

And we’re a throuple.

You might be wondering
what this has to do with math.

But if I tell you we’re like
three elements of combinatorics,

it sounds a bit more familiar, right?

Well, using the multiplication principle,

we went from 3 to over 10,000 followers,

who follow us on our account.

In a less theoretical approach
than Pelayo’s,

I decided to experiment a bit
with my social media.

If you don’t try new things,
you become a square.

(LAUGHTER)
At first,

the data from the platforms
I used

seemed super arbitrary.
No one really knows how it works...

-Oh, what a girl.
...or what’s in it.

(VIBRATION)
After doing some research

on the uploads we’ve had,

I managed to spot some patterns

that can explain
how this whole thing works.

It was like reverse engineering

to figure out
why the algorithm works well.

Bárbara. Bárbara.

Bárbara.
-Oh!

-Sorry. Sorry.

-It’s me, not Ted Bundy.

-What do you want?

-Can I have some sunflower seeds?

Did you know you can make ratatouille
with sunflower seeds? You’d love it.

I won a young chefs’ competition
with this recipe.

I put spaghetti in it.
- I don’t eat spaghetti.

I’m gluten intolerant.

- Oh.

♪ I try to act tough, but it’s no use. ♪

♪ Little sparkle, lots of drama. ♪

♪ I wish I could say goodbye. ♪

♪ Savor you. ♪

♪ Before everything… ♪

There are a thousand tricks to mess with the algorithm.

(VIBRATION)
One is the format of the photos.

PELAYO: Hello, Carlota
(People think editing their photos
makes them blow up more,)

but the truth is, it’s the complete opposite.

CARLOTA: Who's this?
(The most natural photos are the ones that
get the most reach.)

This connects to math for two reasons.

One, because when you edit photos,

PELAYO: I'm not Pelayo. Found his phone at the party
(you’re following the JPG compression algorithm. )

By editing photos, you lose valuable information

that the algorithm uses to decide
who these photos are meant for.

CARLOTA: What do you want???
(To put it simply, the algorithm
is like a toxic boyfriend)

PELAYO: Pelayo recorded you, but not only you
(who, if you don’t give him what he wants,
will ghost you hard.)

(LAUGHTER)

PELAYO: Don't worry, I won't publish them. Sorry
(The way it works is just like school.)

There are groups that are all over the place.

You’ve got the posh kids, the cool kids, the nerds.

Well, they all see things differently.

We, as three elements from different systems,

have managed to capture the attention of diverse users

who are actually more alike than you’d think,

because between a chav and a hipster,

the only difference is the haircut.

(MOANS)

Oh, Carlota.

I love you.

(MOANS)

Son of a b*tch.

Silvia.

(CRYING)

I love you, Pelayo.

We did the same with the videos. We made sure they met

what the algorithm wanted so we could blow up.

And you can see that on our public account.

(MURMURS)

(TYPING)

This account has been terminated
for displaying obscene and offensive content.

sh*t.

They’ve banned the account.

(MURMURS)

Well, we can’t see it because our haters

managed to get the account banned.

Wait, I might know another equation

that explains a bit of what’s happened with this mess.

It’s one that also went viral online.

It’s from our buddy Dirac.

He said that if you bring two systems together
for a while and then separate them,

they’re different systems,
but also the same.

They’re connected forever.

That’s why they call it the love equation.

And who says two systems?
Why not three, right?

For those who don’t get it,

I’m talking about me and my boyfriends,

like we’re systems of equations.

And about many other systems
we’ve interacted with.

Even if it’s just online, we’re all connected
somehow, right?

Even the ones who don’t like us.

It’s cool to think that this connection

has changed those systems forever

and that everyone’s discovered
new ways to interact.

This is ours.

And we’ve discovered it also works

to solve the love equation.

Thank you so much.

(APPLAUSE AND CHEERS)

Damn, Asia!

Bravo!

- Gorgeous!

(WHISTLES)

Sorry. My bad.

I got carried away by what you said

about taking risks.
- No, no, no. It’s... It’s fine.

Look, I don’t make boob jokes
to just anyone.

It’s clear I like you.

But, well... You’ve got a boyfriend.

And I’m telling you seriously,
I’m not into

getting into messy situations.
- Yeah, sorry, sorry.

I’m just all mixed up.

- Chill, well...

When you sort yourself out,
we’ll talk.

But I think you should talk to Dani, right?

First of all, I want to thank the finalists

for this amazing lesson on
math and life.

Alright, well...

The result...

Well, it was really, really close.

There was only one vote difference.

And the winner is...

Pelayo Castro. Congratulations.

(APPLAUSE)

- Well done, love. Well done.

- Bravo!

- Pelayo, you legend.

What the hell is this?

It’s a f*cking fix.
Whatever, I already knew it.

You’re worth more.

- Well. Congratulations.
Enjoy it.

Thank you so much.

Thank you all so much,
really, for this award.

It’s an honor to be here.

And I couldn’t prepare anything
because, well,

I was focused on preparing
the whole presentation.

Hey. Are you watching?
It’s a real luxury to win.

Can we talk?

Especially since it was so close.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Of course.

Really, thank you all for coming.

I hope there are more occasions like this.

Tell me now.

Marina.

I know you want to break up with me,

but you don’t dare
because of Silvia.

That’s it, isn’t it?

- Daniel, I need you to promise me
you won’t shut yourself away

and spend all day on the PlayStation
without talking.

- Why are you saying that?

- Because that’s what you always do
when there’s a problem.

You don’t want to talk about it,
like with what happened with Silvia.

This manga is about two girls

who go to the same school

and one of them has a boyfriend
and she loves him so much.

You can’t imagine how much.

And...
she knows he’s an amazing guy

and there’s no one else like him.

But actually...

she likes girls.

And I’ve been trying for a long time
to understand what’s happening to me

and I didn’t know how to tell you.

Dani. Dani.

(BACKGROUND NOISE)

Listen, screw the jury.

No way! I won.

Jeremy!

I’m sorry.

I was a bit of a jerk earlier.

- A bit, yeah.

But I shouldn’t have told you
I like you.

- Why do you like me?

Is there a specific reason?
I’m not pretty.

I’m not nice.
Why did you like me?

- Look, when these things happen,
they just happen.

There’s no reason.

Like gluten intolerance.

(LAUGHS)
- Right.

I guess I like you
for the same reason

that you don’t like me.

Come on, go, go! Go, go!

Go on, go on.

Hey, Dani, are you sure

Are you okay?

‘Cause your sister’s the type

I’m fine, seriously.

I just can’t believe it’s already happened.

Damn, it’s crazy that your girlfriend
of over a year dumped you

‘cause she’s a l*sbian.
I’ve realized that breaking up

was for the best.
- But I wasn't cheating on you.

- But there must’ve been
some girl you liked.

- Lesbians are girls
who like other girls.

- You’re not a girl. Sorry.
My bad.

Silvia didn’t care
that I was your boyfriend.

You know she wasn’t a good person.
- And you’re better, huh? You recorded it?

I’m embarrassed to tell people
my boyfriend’s a freakin’ pervert.

What the hell are you on about, you freak?
Freak about what?

(EVERYONE YELLS)

- Hey! What’s going on here?
- Just some friendly vibes.

- Why do you hate Marta so much?

- And why do you like her so much?

- I thought this was working.
That it was helping you guys.

This has only helped us
be the only losers

stuck at school at this hour.

I don’t want you here out of obligation.
Who wants to stay?

- Be careful.
Good, because it’s my birthday.

- Hi, I’m Bárbara,
and this is my third drink.

- It’s your fifth.
- It’s her sixth.

- Yeah.
- Ooh!

- Oh! Sorry!
- You’re being a bit annoying, aren’t you?

Why don’t you go hang out
with your little therapy friends?

- Dani!

Dani... He’s not breathing!

I’m calling an ambulance right now.
- Dani!
