How did you know? Is that on my file?
- Lucky guess.
- Fate.
Actually, I have a whole bag full of them.
For my kid.
- You have a kid?
- Yeah.
- Chico or chica?
- Chico.
Jim. His name is Jim.
I bet he's very special.
He is special.
Everybody's children are so special.
all the ordinary grown-ups come from.
These are good.
You wanna come to a club?
Don't you have to meet someone?
- Come. I want you to.
- Why?
Because I want to corrupt you.
If you come, there's a definite risk
that you'll have a good time.
And if you don't come with me,
then you'll regret it.
Come on.
Come on.
- Drink?
- Vodka, rocks, please.
- Would you like to sing?
- No.
- Are you sure?
- No. I'm sure.
You don't wanna hear me sing.
- I was actually hoping to hear you sing.
- Why?
Someone told me
that you have a very distinctive voice.
What else did they say about me
behind my back?
You can take a virus
to make you more musical.
Gives you perfect pitch.
You sing like an angel.
I tried a virus once for Mandarin Chinese.
Chinese people knew what I was saying,
but I didn't.
It was weird. I didn't like it.
an empathy virus.
I take an empathy virus
to help with my work.
I don't like that, that's weird.
That's like you could pick up...
- all sorts of stuff about me.
- Yeah, I can.
That's like wearing x-ray specs
to look at girls' underwear.
- I bought x-ray specs, they don't work.
- But you bought them?
- Yeah.
- You wanted them to work.
I was 6 years old. I was interested
in skeletons, not underwear.
I thought you were
Would it make any difference?
- Claro.
- Really?
- Maria.
- Damian. Hello.
William, Damian. Damian, William.
Darling, you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go
Hi.
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here till the end of time
William is helping me celebrate
my birthday.
- It's your birthday?
- Yeah.
- I didn't know.
- That's okay.
William is okay.
William knows about our secret.
That's the one that will take me.
You should kiss William, too,
because he helped.
If I go there will be trouble
Tell him what you're going to do with it.
I'm a naturalist. I study bats.
The finest quality of bats in this world
is in this cave in Delhi.
I wanted to see that since I was a kid.
You couldn't get cover in the normal way?
And only now am I going.
Usually if you can't get cover,
there's a good reason.
Yes, "The Sphinx knows...
- "best."
- "Best."
- Doesn't know what I know.
Some things in life can be worth the risk.
Anyone who has ever
wanted something knows...
you have to be prepared
to take a risk to get it.
I think I'll be okay.
- Good luck.
- Bye.
If I go there will be trouble
Why did you do that?
- What?
- All that, in front of me.
You know what I should do?
Arrange to have his cover withdrawn...
and I should put him
al fuera and you, too.
But you're not going to, though. Are you?
Why are you being so nice to me?
Are you hoping for a reward?
How do you get the papeles out?
At the beginning of every new batch
we do a test run.
Then we destroy the papel.
I go in to work
and I have a fake papel under my tongue.
I destroy the fake one
and put the real papel under my tongue.
I then go to the bathroom,
put the papel into a pill, swallow it.
A couple of days later, I have the papel.
Impressed?
Come on, be impressed.
Thank you for bringing me home.
It's very kind of you.
Come in.
Beautiful. You have green fingers.
Everything is controlled scientifically.
Do you think that sunlight
is as dangerous as they say?
I hope not.
- Would you like a drink? A glass of water?
- Sure.
One of my fingers
is younger than the others.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- Which one?
- This one.
Do you like it?
Very much.
It's much better than the other fingers.
Definitely.
Maybe I should get them
to grow me a younger face.
No.
I love the sorrows of your changing face.
Or whatever it is.
I haven't seen this book in a while.
one's best enemy...
"and you should be closest to him
when you resist him."
Look.
It's all I've got left from my childhood.
I keep my special memories here.
- Who are they?
- My father and mother.
Before we left Shanghai.
These are people like Damian,
when I give them the papeles.
Now you know all my secrets.
I love to look at their faces.
They're so beautiful.
Look at their eyes.
They have a look
that the rest of us don't have.
You look like them un poco.
You should go to sleep.
I don't want to go to sleep.
Please don't let me sleep.
I'll make you some coffee.
Coffee.
Said I remember
When we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
And Georgie would make the firelight
Logwood burning through the night
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
I was just gonna torture the song
and now you're murdering it.
I'm tone-deaf.
You find that attractive?
Are you leaving?
- What time's your flight?
- 11:
00.What will happen to Bikku?
He'll lose his cover.
That's bad.
I know it's bad.
You giving out fake papers is bad.
Me letting you off is bad.
Have you ever lived outside?
I was outside for 10 years.
Lo siento.
I have to go.
- I need to stop at the entry checkpoint.
- Why?
I need to get more sherbet fountains.
Hi, mister.
I found this.
I thought you could put it to good use.
Thank you. Gracias. God bless you. Go.
Sorry.
Leave him alone. Thank you, God bless you.
If we had enough information...
we could predict
the consequences of our actions.
Would you want to know?
If you kiss that girl,
if you talk to that man...
if you take that job or marry that woman
or steal that papel?
If we knew what would happen in the end...
would we ever be able to take the first step,
to make the first move?
Hello, I'm home.
- Did you have a good trip?
- It went all right.
Daddy! Where have you been?
They'd be pleased to see you.
Your wife, your special boy.
They'd want to know all your news...
and will be glad to have you home,
safe and sound.
- Want me to guess what you're thinking?
- Yeah.
- Bicycle.
- Si.
so leave a message.
It's William, call me.
Just to let me know you're okay.
Bye.
- Are you tired?
- Yeah.
Did you think about me at all?
Did you try to imagine
what was happening to me?
Does an empathy virus work long-distance?
