Hey, guys!

Coffee break!

Come on, come on!

What a bastard.

You were gonna end up single!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop!

Get him!

Hold still.

Bastards!

Hold still.

Come on, Fatso!

Hold still.

Let him go!

He's one of your own!

He ain't nothir of mine, a**hole!

- You give my country a bad name.

- Sell out!

Help a brother out!

If you got up at 2 A.M. Like me,

you wouldn't need any help!

No wonder your wife sleeps around.

You work so much

you forgot how to be a man!

Say that to my face, a**hole!

You see? I knew I'd seen

that rent-a-cop's face before.

That lady I told you about

had his photo in her bedroom.

Who do you think

the flowers are for, d*ckhead?

F***ing scum.

They'll get theirs.

Always giving us a hard time.

Those bastards

haven't heard the last of me.

"My dearest Nelson: I don't know

how to say this, but I can't..."

"We used to hold each other

to keep warm.

I came to this place

to find what was best for us.

That's what you said."

You see it?

That's the heart.

It had to be now...

It's been in there a few weeks now.

Have you had any interruptions?

Two years ago.

Everything is normal, Marcela.

Does it look like me?

It's still too early to know.

I need your info

to schedule an appointment,

Marcela.

Tell me where you live.

Where do you live, Marcela?

Where are you, Marcela?

MARCELA:

One, two, sixteen.

Six are missing.

That's sixteen, six are missing.

Not the white ones.

The white ones go over there.

Those are red, sixteen red ones.

These make eight.

Two bundles, six missing.

You gave me ten euros.

You're six euros short.

Sixteen for two bundles.

How are you feeling?

My stomach hurts.

Have you eaten?

You're not going out today.

You're staying home.

- Hi, Nelson.

- Hi.

You're late.

Marcela got the flowers ready,

they're in the fridge.

- Hi.

- Hi, Marcela.

How's your mom?

Fine, she said to say hi.

She says you haven't been to see her

at the restaurant for a while.

It's almost full, Nelson.

We need to be ready

for the holidays.

Gladis is always ready

for the holidays.

Marcela isn't feeling well.

You two have to sell her share.

Have you got the six euros or not?

Ever seen one like this?

Look, this one

is selling very well lately.

Automatic defrost

and door alarm.

It beeps if you leave it open.

You like it?

With financing it costs 450.

in installments.

Okay.

We haven't got that much.

It's only 150.

But we have to pay it off.

We haven't got that either.

You could get a summer job.

What about that job

Rosa mentioned?

Not now, Nelson.

- We can't.

- Why not?

Now is when we need it.

It's almost Christmas.

Our stash has already wilted.

Beside, we owe three months rent.

- We don't have any money.

- We'll find some.

You see?

It beeps.

He just needs a little help.

Someone to keep him company.

Have you ever done this before?

No.

Don't worry, I won't ask

for any qualifications.

We don't think training

is really necessary.

He was fine until recently.

Just one month, to try it out.

Every day.

See if you two get along, eh?

We'll pay you at the end

of the month. 500 euros.

Yeah, 500 is the going rate.

We can give you

a hundred up front.

We'll wire it to you

after the first week.

He doesn't talk or complain much.

He won't give you much work.

He's an easy man.

Daddy wants to know

if you'll be much longer.

Tell Daddy we're almost done, okay?

Now run along.

My secretary.

Have you got children, Marcela?

No.

They bring a lot of joy,

but they're also a lot of work.

I'm sure you'll get along

just fine.

We can't take care of him right now.

We're building a house out of town,

you know what building is like.

His medication is very simple.

Just pills.

It's all written down right here.

Dosage, hours...

When he runs out, the pharmacy

will give you more.

Just say they're for him.

They know us,

we have an account with them.

I'll give you my phone number

in case you need anything.

I'll call you from time to time.

We have to get going

or we'll get caught in traffic.

Did I tell you his name?

Can you make it 150?

The advance.

Yeah.

Sure.

Good morning.

It isn't much.

They're giving me an advance.

It's just enough for the first

installment on the fridge.

We can pick it up on Saturday.

I'll ask Oscar for his truck.

Spray this on them.

Is he a nice old man?

Why do we have to spray the flowers?

So they smell like flowers.

Otherwise they don't.

Flowers don't smell like flowers?

Exactly.

It makes me dizzy.

I like it.

It's from natural flowers.

I still don't get it.

People like flowers to smell good,

Marcela.

Why all the questions?

Who's the expert here?

And who found a job

to pay for the fridge?

You, my love.

When we have our own flower shop

I'll name it after you.

"Marcela's Flowers."

I'll put it

on the delivery trucks too.

On the delivery trucks?

We'll do okay.

For everyone to see.

You've put on weight.

A little.

What's your name?

Marcela.

Amador.

Want me to put him on?

Okay, ma'am.

Don't worry.

Your father is resting right now.

Don't worry, he'll understand.

I'll explain it to him.

Okay. I'll say hello to him for you.

I will, okay. Bye.

The sea is the hardest.

It's all the same.

Is there sea where you're from?

Is that why you left?

Well done.

The sky is hard too.

You've got sky there, right?

Sky, yes.

Do you like clouds?

You know what a friend of mine

used to say?

That God made clouds

so he could hide behind them

when he's ashamed of something.

How about that?

Of course my friend

was an anarchist.

What else would he say?

Well?

Was the father happy?

What did he say?

That I've put on weight.

Have you got the next size up?

You don't want to watch

the soap opera?

I don't watch series'.

You don't like them?

They last too long.

Of course.

You haven't got time.

You're so busy.

They're series'. They last.

Have you ever done a puzzle?

Never?

No.

I don't see why they go to all

the trouble of breaking a photo

into little pieces.

Why not just buy it with the pieces

already in place?

Then it wouldn't be a puzzle.

The photo would be the same.

It's not the same.

The photo is.

Yeah, but then

I wouldn't have done it.

You'd save yourself all that work.

The final result is the same.

It's the same, but different too.

Because if you do it yourself,

it comes out differently.

Puzzles and other stuff too.

Everything.

It happens in life too.

Before you're born,

you're given all the pieces.

You don't know you have them,

but they've been given to you

and it's your job

to put them all together.

That's life.

Putting all the pieces

in the right place.

It's as simple as that.

Nobody gave me any pieces.

Yes, they did.

You just don't know it.

But you have all the pieces.

It's your responsibility to find out

where each one goes.

Wiring money is cheap,

fast and safe.

Send as much as you want

to South America

for only 4,50 euros...

We bring people closer.

Is he okay?
