and came up with this

great idea for your business...

- Fire him, Dad!

- You shut up!

Look, Javier, this is

your last chance.

I want you here

at 5 pm.

Well groomed, and

determined to succeed.

- He had to work the noon shift!

- You shut up!

Look at me.

How did I start?

- Say it, say it.

- Handing flyers.

- That's right. Where?

- At the City Hall Square.

I was a "sandwich man."

Look at me now. What do you see?

Success, Javi.

Success.

So... I want you

here at 6 pm.

Go, get some rest.

At noon!

Would you shut up?

Be a nice kid. Ok? Go, go.

And you? What are

you waiting for?

A ride home?

Get your lazy ass

out of here!

- Are you stupid?

- What's wrong, kid?

"Don Hector.

I have a great idea!"

What's your problem?

"Driving school and advertising

on wheels, all in one."

- You're so stupid.

- You don't get it.

Driving school and advertising on

wheels is a great business idea.

You get someone

to drive the car...

while you play the commercial.

Look.

This must be one of your ideas.

How do you know

it's mine?

Because it is a 25 Watts one.

A**hole.

F*** off.

Easy.

Square root of 77?

"Did you know hamsters

are very intelligent?"

''How are you doing, champ?

Hi, Mr. Duarte. ''

- How are you doing, champ?

- Hi, Mr. Duarte.

So, how's school?

School is all right.

So, how's school?

School is all right.

- Everybody's well at home?

'-Yes, luckily.

- Did you step on?

- Yes, luckily... uh?

Yeah... Some folks say

it's good luck.

The small farmers foundation has

started scientific research on apple,

...peach, orange and pear trees.

Next year the research...

...Will also include

berries and kiwi.

The foundation's steering

committee...

...Decided earlier this week

to fund new programs...

''Ale:
Im gone to the beach.

L'II be back on Monday.

Do your study and look after grandma, ''

blah, blah, blah... ''Kisses, Mom. ''

''PS:
Beatriz called to

cancel today's class. ''

F***!

F***ing dogs!

In an effort to help small

farming companies...

buy new equipment.

Union leaders met with

the Secretary of Agriculture...

I'm coming!

Grandma, did you

not hear the bell?

- Ale.

- Don't call me Ale. I'm Leche.

- I knew you were home.

- Yes, yes.

- Put on a record.

- No.

- "Manson."

- Manson has tits.

- I went out with my cousin yesterday.

- Really?

Good.

We drank beer.

You can't drink

beer, right?

Because of the pills.

How much did you drink?

One bottle.

I gave him pills and

he gave me beer.

- Who?

- My cousin.

We bought

a supermarket cart.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

- How much?

- I don't know. My cousin paid.

- You stole it.

- Yeah.

And it was a

very high place,

and my cousin would sing..."fly

birdie, fly, and the dog also flies."

What?

- What happened, Gerardito?

- I don't know.

What happened?

Have you seen

my dog Ulyses?

I know your dog.

What happened to Ulyses?

We don't know.

Remember what happened

to your other Ulyses? - Yes.

- You remember?

- Yeah.

- Did you like that?

- No, you didn't.

- Did you like that? No.

- Put on a record.

- What do we have to do then?

- I don't know.

- What do we have to do?

- I don't know.

- We should go look for him, right?

- Yes.

Let's go.

Kiss grandma.

So, what are you

doing now?

- We'll go look for Ulyses.

- You'll go look for Ulyses.

What happened to your forehead?

Nothing. I fell.

The lady downstairs

asks if this shoe is yours.

Yeah.

Thanks.

How's it going, grandma?

You really love this sh*t.

Son, open the door.

Open the door, Javier!

What were you doing?

Having lunch with "Alfonso".

You said you wouldn't

give it a name.

I named him Alfonso

because he's kind of slow.

You're eating dog food again, Javi?

It's not good for either of you.

This is "the ideal supplement

for an insufficient intake."

And it tastes good.

- Try it.

- I don't want to.

- Try it...

- Cut it, I don't want!

We need to talk.

We are talking.

Or this is playing golf?

I'm not in love

with you.

I just don't feel the same

I felt the other times.

- And what do you feel?

- Right now?

No, the other times.

I don't know. You know...

- No, I don't.

- Yes, you do.

Give me a metaphor.

Let me see... A roller coaster.

The way you feel on a roller coaster.

They closed

the roller coaster.

They reopened it,

a**hole.

Let's say you are on the

Big Wheel, high up there.

You know how

you feel...

Like floating.

- No, I never "floated".

- Me neither.

It's not like that, but

it's kind of like that.

So, what do you feel

for me right now?

I really care about you.

But it's not what

it used to be.

I do have feelings,

but... you know...

- Kind of a Mary go Round.

- F*** off.

- Kiss me.

- No way.

- C'mon... Kiss me.

- No way, Javi.

You smell like dog.

Ok, I'll brush my teeth.

And you, Javi?

What do you feel?

- Right now?

- Yes.

Dog smell.

CLOSED DUE TO DEATH

IN THE FAMILY:

F***!

"MY NAME IS ULYSES

AND I'M MISSING"

Two hundred...

Ready. 200 copies, kid.

Do you want a bag?

Hey, kid!

- Hey, Pitufo. All neat?

- Yup.

What was Gerardito doing?

Leche's neighbor?

He made 100 copies.

- What happened to Sandia?

- Why?

There's a sign

on the video store.

No, he went to

get hot dogs.

He has another sign:

"Sorry. We are experimenting

technical difficulties."

That's when he's

taking a dump.

Really?

Is he going

to be out long?

No. Wait around.

Do you know this?

The Guinness Book

of World Records.

I've got the book, the magazine...

Everything.

We'll be the first

Uruguayans in the book.

Who?

Kiwi and I.

"lo sono, tu sei, lui e"...

lo sono, tu sei...

...lui...

es...

"E".

lo sono. Tu sei. Lui...

Luis...

e...

- What's the record?

- Around 15,000.

But we'll beat it.

And that's just the beginning.

Then we'll do a couple...

of talk shows "Hola Susana"...

and "Sofovich"

in Buenos Aires...

Then "Don Francisco"

in Miami...

And then doors will open.

And finally the Guinness book.

Awesome...

Let me see... I want to see

if my uncle is here.

Your Uncle Alfonso?

Yes, he was a genius.

He ate 150 hard-boiled eggs.

Really.

Actually 149... He

swallowed them. Like this.

But the last egg did him.

He choked on it.

With all due respect, Seba.

What a dumb ass.

F*** you, Pitufo.

Hello, Beatriz? Uhh...

It's Leche, all neat?

No... Uhh... Beatrice?

Leche here. What's up?

Beatrice.

Beatrice, tutto bene?

Leche here...

I was thinking about...

My mom told me...

...Maybe you couldn't...

Grandma, only half of that one.

Beatrice... Ok, c'mon...

Sh*t.

Beatrice... uh...

+Hello.

- Hello.

Hey, Javi, what's up?

Who are you with?

Hamster.

- Oops. I'll call you later.

- Good.

Who was that?

Nobody. Some chick.

I can't find...

my bra.

Look under the bed.

It isn't.

Check if the remote

control is there too.

How long has it been

there, a**hole?

Cut it out, Javi.

It's over.

- Take "Alfonso".

- It's for you.

He likes you.

Take it.

I'm out of here.

Is Sandia coming

anytime soon?
