00:
01:03,542 -- 00:01:06,333

Kites.. fly in the sky..

2

00:
01:07,292 -- 00:01:08,541

free..

3

00:
01:09,292 -- 00:01:10,874

dancing in the wind..

4

00:
01:11,250 -- 00:01:12,499

with no worries..

5

00:
01:13,584 -- 00:01:16,083

like two lovers..

they meet, they fight..

6

00:
01:18,334 -- 00:01:20,458

..they embrace..

7

00:
01:21,250 -- 00:01:22,916

they almost become one..

8

00:
01:24,834 -- 00:01:28,249

but it is not the will of the

kites.. that makes them dance..

9

00:
01:29,375 -- 00:01:31,833

'cause someone else..

always holds the strings..

10

00:
03:36,042 -- 00:03:38,583

May God be with you, son..

11

00:
03:39,875 -- 00:03:41,083

Thank you.

12

00:
03:46,625 -- 00:03:47,999

Mr. J..

13

00:
03:48,000 -- 00:03:50,499

I hope you find..

14

00:
03:50,500 -- 00:03:52,666

the love of your life.

15

00:
05:00,042 -- 00:05:03,333

Las Vegas. City of dreams.

16

00:
05:05,042 -- 00:05:08,458

Here, you'll find a lot of taxi

drivers who were once millionaires..

17

00:
05:08,917 -- 00:05:12,249

and lot of millionaires..

who were once taxi drivers..

18

00:
05:13,000 -- 00:05:15,749

Everyone here is

looking for the same thing.

19

00:
05:16,292 -- 00:05:19,083

That one life changing roll of dice!

20

00:
05:19,375 -- 00:05:20,999

One lucky break.

21

00:
05:22,125 -- 00:05:23,416

So am I.

22

00:
05:25,875 -- 00:05:28,499

Can I have a beer, please?

- Okay.

23

00:
05:29,667 -- 00:05:31,124

Often people fear God..

24

00:
05:32,000 -- 00:05:33,166

but I don't..

25

00:
05:34,292 -- 00:05:36,624

- One beer and

change for 100. - Thanks.

26

00:
05:37,334 -- 00:05:40,249

'cause my God is.. money!

27

00:
05:44,542 -- 00:05:46,874

As of now, however, I'm

earning only 100 dollars per week..

28

00:
05:46,875 -- 00:05:48,999

teaching at the Leko Dance Academy..

29

00:
05:53,750 -- 00:05:55,999

I might have already been rich..

30

00:
05:57,709 -- 00:05:59,999

but my timing sucked.

31

00:
06:01,500 -- 00:06:03,833

Every time Lady Luck came knocking..

32

00:
06:04,625 -- 00:06:06,583

I'd be in the shower.

33

00:
06:11,375 -- 00:06:13,541

The things I did, to earn a living..

34

00:
06:13,834 -- 00:06:15,333

sold popcorn..

35

00:
06:15,334 -- 00:06:16,916

performed death defying stunts..

36

00:
06:17,209 -- 00:06:18,749

resorted to piracy..

37

00:
06:19,375 -- 00:06:21,208

and when things got really tough..

38

00:
06:21,209 -- 00:06:22,708

I got hitched.

39

00:
06:23,000 -- 00:06:24,666

Yup.. fake marriages..

40

00:
06:25,125 -- 00:06:26,916

Green card scam!

41

00:
06:27,709 -- 00:06:29,749

They got their citizenship..

42

00:
06:30,000 -- 00:06:31,541

and I got hard cash.

43

00:
06:33,667 -- 00:06:34,833

How much this time?

44

00:
06:34,834 -- 00:06:36,541

Poor little thing, she

can't afford to pay.

45

00:
06:36,542 -- 00:06:37,791

1000 dollars..

46

00:
06:38,000 -- 00:06:39,333

and extra for the honeymoon.

47

00:
06:41,000 -- 00:06:42,333

And, Robin had a knack of finding..

48

00:
06:42,334 -- 00:06:44,083

these women, over and over.

49

00:
06:44,084 -- 00:06:45,916

I found you a husband.

50

00:
06:46,084 -- 00:06:47,791

He wants 700 dollars..

51

00:
06:47,792 -- 00:06:50,208

and I want 250 dollars as advance.

52

00:
06:50,209 -- 00:06:51,333

Who is he?

53

00:
06:54,709 -- 00:06:56,374

She can't speak English..

54

00:
06:56,375 -- 00:06:58,166

and you can't speak Spanish.

55

00:
06:58,167 -- 00:07:00,249

How exactly did you fall in love?

56

00:
07:00,250 -- 00:07:01,791

Well, love and music, sir..

57

00:
07:01,792 -- 00:07:03,083

have no language.

58

00:
07:03,375 -- 00:07:04,583

Our love..

59

00:
07:05,125 -- 00:07:06,499

it's more than words.

60

00:
07:25,500 -- 00:07:27,374

Happy Valentine's Day.

61

00:
07:29,375 -- 00:07:31,374

Where did you.. how did you?

62

00:
07:34,000 -- 00:07:35,874

Hey..

63

00:
07:36,417 -- 00:07:38,083

One second.

64

00:
07:39,084 -- 00:07:41,916

What are you doing here?

How did you get in?

65

00:
07:42,209 -- 00:07:45,624

I stole the key from your locker..

66

00:
07:45,625 -- 00:07:47,499

and made a duplicate of it.

67

00:
07:48,542 -- 00:07:49,624

What?

68

00:
07:50,500 -- 00:07:52,791

Where do I keep this?

69

00:
08:01,417 -- 00:08:02,999

What are you doing?

70

00:
08:03,250 -- 00:08:04,791

Tidying up your place.

71

00:
08:06,000 -- 00:08:07,208

Why?

72

00:
08:09,959 -- 00:08:12,499

I can't live in a

dirty house, right?

73

00:
08:14,625 -- 00:08:17,916

Okay, look. You're

freaking me out now. Alright?

74

00:
08:17,917 -- 00:08:19,833

Sit here. Come.

75

00:
08:19,834 -- 00:08:21,583

Are you crazy or something?

76

00:
08:22,250 -- 00:08:23,583

I love you, J.

77

00:
08:23,584 -- 00:08:24,791

Okay, that's it!

78

00:
08:24,792 -- 00:08:26,624

You got to go. Get the

hell out of here. - J.. J..

79

00:
08:26,625 -- 00:08:28,333

- You gotta go now! - J.. listen!

80

00:
08:28,334 -- 00:08:30,541

I know you love me, J.

81

00:
08:30,542 -- 00:08:32,249

The way you touch me, I can feel it.

82

00:
08:32,250 -- 00:08:34,374

You've lost your mind! Just leave!

83

00:
08:34,375 -- 00:08:36,374

Or I'll inform the cops on you.

Just get the hell out of here.

84

00:
08:36,375 -- 00:08:38,041

- J.. - Just go!

85

00:
08:56,292 -- 00:08:57,708

I.. I'm sorry.

86

00:
08:58,584 -- 00:09:01,041

I shouldn't have been so rude.

I'm really sorry.

87

00:
09:02,709 -- 00:09:04,333

But the thing is..

88

00:
09:05,000 -- 00:09:06,791

I don't love you.

89

00:
09:09,000 -- 00:09:10,541

Do you have a girlfriend?

90

00:
09:10,834 -- 00:09:11,916

No.

91

00:
09:12,834 -- 00:09:14,166

Boyfriend?

92

00:
09:16,959 -- 00:09:18,791

Go home, I'll hail a cab.

- I don't need a cab.

93

00:
09:18,792 -- 00:09:20,958

I'll call a cab. It will take a

second. - I have a car waiting.

94

00:
09:34,000 -- 00:09:35,416

I am sorry!

95

00:
09:35,417 -- 00:09:37,166

I'll never bother you again.

96

00:
09:44,334 -- 00:09:46,499

There.. like I said..

97

00:
09:47,167 -- 00:09:49,208

Lady Luck knocked..

98

00:
09:49,417 -- 00:09:51,499

but the shower

drowned out the sounds.

99

00:
09:53,125 -- 00:09:55,874

I had missed one vital

piece of information.

100

00:
09:56,459 -- 00:09:58,333

Gina was the daughter of Bob Grover.

101

00:
09:58,584 -- 00:10:01,208

Owner of one of the

biggest casino's in Vegas.

102

00:
10:03,792 -- 00:10:04,958

Hey!

103

00:
10:09,042 -- 00:10:10,958

Look, I just want

to say sorry again.

104

00:
10:16,500 -- 00:10:17,791

May I ask you something?

105

00:
10:20,125 -- 00:10:21,749

Would you like to be my partner?

106

00:
10:23,000 -- 00:10:25,624

I mean, in the dance

competition next week.

107

00:
10:33,542 -- 00:10:35,583

It wasn't difficult convincing Gina.

108

00:
10:36,875 -- 00:10:39,958

We kept getting closer. I

think we made a great couple.

109

00:
10:41,209 -- 00:10:42,458

And I knew..

110

00:
10:43,417 -- 00:10:45,416

that I was about to hit the jackpot!
