but maybe he suspects something.

If he suspects, the more the merit.

Sweetie, though I'm younger,

I'm more developed up here.

If there's a problem,

the solution isn't screwing Nicholas.

Don't say that!

You said no one's eaten your p*ssy

or f***ed you like him.

It was a lie,

Ramn eats it just as well.

Why doubt then? Marry Ramn

and stop fooling around with Nicholas.

You're so basic!

And he's loaded. What more?

She pressed Nick's buzzer.

Think so?

Susana!

What are you doing here?

I expected a messenger.

Well, it's me.

May I come in?

I've looked for you for months.

How'd you find me?

By chance.

Saw your picture in a TV guide.

Didn't know you wrote

or that your name was Nicholas.

I know so little about you...

You have a lotto explain.

As you like.

Come in.

I'm exhausted, Juana.

ls Ramn home?

Not yet.

I'll run upstairs then.

I'm so tired...

Don't pull that face.

Sorry, it's the only one I've got.

Can't expect all women to be dykes.

It's no shame.

Neither is being crazy about men.

By the way,

it's not my business,

but have you thought

of shaving your moustache?

Why?

Men don't have a monopoly

on moustaches.

Men with moustaches are either

gay, fascist or both.

Speaking as a professional,

you'd be prettier without.

You'd pick up more.

I'll make you up,

you'll see the change.

I'm going upstairs, I'm exhausted.

She's so mistaken, but so charming.

Nick, it's Kika.

Pick up if you're in.

I have to talk to you.

Ramn asked me to marry him.

Let's talk about it.

You're not there.

Well, see you tomorrow.

I'm dead today, I'm exhausted.

There we are.

Look at you, don't you look great?

Do you like me better?

No comparison.

Now they like models with weird faces,

you could be one of them.

I don't see myself on the catwalk.

I want to be a prison matron,

surrounded by girls all day!

You're too much, Juana!

- I'm authentic!

- That's true.

What's wrong?

You've gotten me excited.

Juana, really!

I need some water,

to cool off the erection.

Have you ever been with a man?

Well, just with my brother.

You've committed incest?

Don't know if it was incest,

he was abnormal.

- Poor thing.

- Well, he is.

Like all abnormals, he liked to f***.

Not just abnormals do.

At first he did it with cows,

sheep and all the lambs in the village.

Then in the neighbourhood.

Before he raped the neighbours,

I let him screw me so he could steam off.

If that's the case,

it probably wasn't incest.

But that's why you're traumatized.

I'm not traumatized!

Nothing compares to good p*ssy.

Just because you haven't tried.

You're really asinine!

I'm authentic!

Pay Juana a compliment.

Juana, you look beautiful.

The seora disguised me.

I forgot to tell you...

Nicholas is moving to Youkali soon.

Weren't you selling it?

Until we do, he's better off there.

Great place for writing.

It's very messy.

We'll clean it up.

Do you want to keep him far from us?

Since you're asking... Yes.

- Is it because...?

- I can't forget.

Your mother?

Yes.

You can't keep torturing

yourself with her death.

I'm an orphan and don't spend all day

turning it in my head.

- It's not the same.

- How come!

You were small when your parents died.

And that makes it a small loss?

Try to understand!

I never stop, but you don't...

With time, couples resemble each other,

but we're more and more different.

I'm always chattier,

you're more hermetic.

That's not good.

I read introverted people

interiorize their emotions

like anger or self-contempt.

This interiorizing produces cancer.

You don't know the agony of cancer...

Enough already!

You don't let me talk!

You're the one who doesn't let me!

So go ahead, talk!

About what?

Lots... I don't mean Sarajevo,

Somalia and stuff.

I mean about you and me.

Wasn't this going to be a party?

I forgot!

I get out of hand if you don't control me.

That can't be,

I need lots of control!

Dab yourself, brings luck.

Behind your ears!

To us.

Whatever happens,

let's keep loving each other.

But let's hope nothing happens.

This week,

our popular section "Bloody Ceremonies"

had the pleasure to travel

to Villaverde de los Ojos

where every year

the Picaos procession is held.

How disgusting!

Even Juana, who's so coarse,

is affected.

In the masked group of repentants

was Pablo Mendez,

better known by his stage name,

Paul Bazzo.

Remember "Dickotherapy"

and "Spill the sperm"?

That's Paul Bazzo!

Famous porn actor was serving time

for crimes against public health.

Jail authorities granted him a permit

to fulfil a promise to his village Saint.

Once masked,

he took advantage of the confusion

to escape.

Due to the low IQ

of this famous porn actor,

ex-boxer and ex-Legionnaire,

one supposes his freedom

will be short-lived.

Let's do it the way I like.

Seriously, this has got to change.

Do it as a gift.

I gave you a ring...

It's my fault for encouraging this habit.

I don't mind,

I'm a liberal woman.

But once in a while

I'd like to do it the conventional way.

Look at me!

Shall I go on?

Finished?

No, one more.

Take one of me enjoying myself.

Again, in case it's out of focus.

It will be 'cause you don't stop moving.

No, that looks fake.

You're not enjoying it?

I don't know.

Can't concentrate with all these photos.

No more photos then.

Now concentrate.

I'm concentrating.

The lamp,

it's moving.

Look, it's moving.

We can stop if you want.

You don't mind?

Why should I mind?

Don't be angry.

We took lots of photos.

Nicholas, pick up, it's Andrea.

Come on, pick up,

I know you're there.

What you sent today

weren't the scripts.

It was the draft of a novel.

I hate people who say

"I know you're there."

Me too.

Am I disturbing?

Yes.

What do you want?

Instead of the chapters,

you sent something with a terrible title,

"A lesbian killer".

I mixed the envelopes up.

Wait.

Yours is here, sorry.

Will you send them tomorrow?

You can have them now.

Tomorrow I'm moving to Youkali.

Should I come to you?

I'll see you at the Bellas Artes

in half an hour.

An hour's better.

Killing is like cutting your toenails.

At first,

thinking about it makes you lazy.

When you out them, you discover

it's quicker than you imagined.

You think a long time will pass

before doing it again.

But when you least expect it,

they've grown again."

What a wonderful paragraph!

You can't define more precisely

the natural passion to kill.

Only one objection.

A woman is narrating,

and even though a lesbian,

a woman is never lazy about

her personal grooming.

You're right.

Could you postpone your novel

while you finish my work?

We're a little behind

and I still have to translate it

into Spanish.

I promise I'll work hard at Youkali.

Is this based on true events?

It's loosely based

on various unresolved cases.

They all had in common lack of motive.

I read them in the paper.

It wasn't the same person,

or necessarily a woman,

it's a license I've taken
