Thanks.

No, I checked. It wasn't there.

But... I don't know...

I looked for it three times.

- Honeymoon?

- No, vacation.

But... you are married.

No. Maybe someday.

Beware, both love and Buenos Aires

can be dumbfounding.

If you are dumb enough, you can be fooled.

Have a great time. Come on, darling.

Did he say that because of me?

- Hi.

- Welcome.

- Hello.

- Did you have a reservation?

I have a million things here.

- Not bad.

- It's nice.

- Do you like it?

- I do.

I'm exhausted.

- Well...

- What about going a for a walk?

First, I'd like to take a bath

a change my clothes.

I mean, relax. OK?

- OK? OK?

- No!

- Come on!

- Come here, come here.

I'll ask the waitress

about a nice tango place.

We'd better ask at the hotel.

They'll send us to a tourist place.

I'd like a real place. I don't know...

something with a local image...

OK.

You've lost today, kid. Come in.

Be careful with bags

and cellphones on the table.

Thank you so much.

This is my girlfriend, Trini.

- He's Sub-commissioner Bonano.

- Nacho.

- Hi.

- At your service.

Thanks, Nacho.

Here, if you snooze, you lose.

You have to pay attention.

It's a tourist area,

there are a lot of people...

You're right. Thanks.

I heard you like tango.

Yes, I'd love to see a good tango show.

- Call me and I'll give you one.

- Really?

- Yes.

- Well, thanks.

- Let me pay for your coffee.

- No, no. No way.

Just enjoy.

Lovely, right?

- Buenos Aires is beautiful.

- I was talking about you.

- I love you.

- I love you.

- Are you done with everything?

- Yes.

Thank goodness

I'm done with the paperwork.

It was really...

a nice excuse to come here.

Yes. I'd like to live here.

Really? Live here?

Six months here during summer

and six months in Spain.

Also during summer.

OK.

- You have to work to do that.

- Yes.

- And what about the kids?

- What kids?

- We don't have kids.

- What do you mean?

- We'll have kids.

- In the future.

- I want to have kids.

- When?

Right now. Say yes.

This nose, this mouth...

this leg...

- Let's go to our room.

- What?

Let's go to our room.

OK, that's great. OK.

No. There's no need for that.

Really, Nacho, don't worry.

Yes, I'll take a taxi and meet you there.

Give me the address.

What time should we be there?

Ten? OK, great.

We'll meet you there at 10.

I'll tell her. See you.

Honey, I don't want

to go out with a cop we don't know.

Don't be prejudiced.

It doesn't matter he's a cop.

They aren't very well thought of here.

We met him,

he seems like a nice guy. It's OK.

- Go take a bath.

- I already have. In the jacuzzi.

Go take a bath!

Here.

I want you to keep this.

This is beautiful, honey.

But it belongs to your family.

Now you are my family.

- Let's dance.

- No, honey.

- I'll stay here.

- Why?

- I don't feel like it.

- I'll teach you.

- I feel too embarrassed to dance.

- Me too, but...

- Come on.

- No, no, no.

- Come on, I'll teach you.

- No. I don't want to.

If I stand up,

anybody will ask me to dance.

- Who will ask you for a dance?

- That happens here.

- No way. Kiss me and...

- You'll dance.

OK.

- Is that even a kiss?

- Come on. Let's go.

- Wonderful. Very stylish.

- Nice.

Great.

- Did you like it?

- I loved it.

You don't find a place like this

in Barcelona.

- Thanks.

- You're welcome.

How old were you when you left?

I was five when I left.

My parents

wrapped everything up and we left

to bum around the world.

My grandma stayed here

and she visited us a few times.

I settled in Barcelona,

and I met this girl from Buenos Aires.

The love of my life.

- I need to go to the bathroom.

- I'll go with you.

- OK.

- I'll be back.

I say something nice

and she goes to the bathroom.

- Nice girl. Is she your girlfriend?

- No, she's a friend.

- A friend? Come on.

- She's a friend.

- A friend with benefits.

- With benefits.

That's why you danced so close to her.

I saw you.

Trini?

Trini?

Good morning, honey.

- Where were you?

- At the spa.

- And?

- It's good.

- I didn't wake you up.

- Yes, thanks.

Look, it's 2 pm.

I don't know what got into me.

If we keep that up...

you'll kill me.

I'll be just skin and bones.

You missed breakfast.

What would you like to do today?

I don't know.

Dancing?

I ordered a sirloin strip steak for you...

so that you tasted

the real Argentine sirloin strip steak

before going back.

Don't you like meat? Are you a vegan?

I don't like vegan people.

I don't trust people who don't eat meat.

I'm not a vegan, but I am not hungry.

If he tells you to eat...

- you eat.

- No, no.

- Eat, or it will get cold.

- Are you all right?

No.

She's fine.

And it's up to you

whether she will be fine or not.

What do you mean it's up to me?

What happens? What this is all about?

Who the hell are you?

I'm Eric Le Blanc.

You are Mateo.

And this beauty here is Trini.

Yes, she's Trini, my wife.

What's happening here?

What the hell is going on here?

- Would you like anything else?

- What the heck is happening here?

Who are you? What do you want?

You live in Barcelona, don't you?

Barcelona is beautiful.

I prefer Barcelona to Madrid.

Did I ever tell you what happened

with the Spanish delegation

in a hotel in Amsterdam?

I arrive at an Amsterdam hotel...

and there was a Spanish man

yelling angrily.

I came close to translate for him.

I don't speak Dutch, I speak English.

And I ask him...

and the Spanish man says...

"In this hotel,

all the bathrooms are out of order."

Can you imagine what it was?

I asked the concierge.

It was the toilet seat band.

The Spanish man thought

the toilet was out of order.

Come on, come on, let's go.

No, no.

No, no. No weapons.

We are eating.

Besides, they are right.

We have to explain.

This is the thing...

tomorrow you are going to fly to Spain...

- My flight is next week.

- Don't interrupt me.

I'm talking about business

and I don't like being interrupted.

I'll continue.

Tomorrow you'll fly to Madrid...

and you'll take

some pounds of cocaine with you.

She'll stay here

waiting for you to deliver

the drugs to our people in Spain.

And when the drugs are delivered

she will board the first flight to Madrid.

- And how am I supposed to carry it?

- I'll tell you later.

What if I am caught?

If you do exactly as we tell you,

everything will be all right.

We are professional people.

We do it every day.

Now if you are caught...

you are f***ed.

Because we...

we will disappear.

But you will spend 20 years in jail

for drug trafficking.

You won't have a good time

with that lovely face.

And you start praying

that he isn't caught.

But right now you are my guests,

and I want you to finish your meal.

I am always very kind to my guests.

There's no reason

to have a worse time

than necessary, right?

Come on, eat.

Make yourself comfortable.

There is some water there.

If you need anything else, knock.

There's always somebody there.

These guys are crazy.

- How are you going to take the drugs?
