None of Mars laws stand

above Gods law.

Love God above all things...

...and love thy neighbour.

Before ourselves stands

a couple that has known...

...how to love and respect

each other in Gods eyes...

...and that after ten years...

...want to renew their vows.

Jose Maria.

Jean Paul.

Congratulations on ten years

of loving commitment.

A hand for the lovely couple.

Kiss, kiss, kiss.

Kiss, kiss, kiss.

LA OTRA FAMILIA:

Mom.

Mom.

Mommy.

Mommy.

Mom.

Damn b*tch.

Look, look.

I love you.

Mom?

What are you doing up so late?

Wheres your mom?

Shes not here.

How long have you

been on your own?

About three days.

Alright.

Where are you going?

I got the few

clean clothes he had.

You ought to see that house.

Its like a whorehouse.

Beer cans all over the floor,

joints...

... I even found a used condom.

Hello.

Hello.

Yes.

Now?

Doesnt he have a dad?

We dont know who it is.

Grandparents, an uncle

or aunt, any relatives?

He doesnt have anybody, Jean Paul.

I wouldnt have called otherwise.

Why me?

Dont be like this with me.

Why dont you keep him?

We cant, were

leaving for Houston.

Come on.

Give me a hand here, please.

Its just for a few days.

I have a job.

And tell me, what am I

supposed to do with a kid...

...of that age?

- Youve got Chema.

Oh, cmon.

Just come meet him.

Youll fall in love.

No, no.

No, Ivan, no.

Wheres my mom?

Excellent question...

Excellent question.

Shes... sick.

Shes feeling a bit

under the weather.

But as soon as shes better,

youll go back with her.

For now, youll stay with us.

Who is 'us'?

Youll see.

You hungry?

At least they fed you.

And they gave me a warm bath.

Good to know, son.

Good to know.

Are you my dad?

No.

No. I have no kids.

But lets say Im your...

...little guardian angel.

Its just for a while.

I wanna pee.

Can you hold it in?

Were almost there, OK?

No?

No.

Im coming.

Im coming, Im coming.

Come quick, come.

Merci.

Lower your pants.

Like that.

Meet Hendrix.

Can he stay with us

for a couple of days?

This is Chema.

Come, sit.

Is this a joke?

- No, it isnt a joke.

Were doing Ivana...

...a favour.

Is he her nephew or something?

Hes the son of a friend of hers.

Ill explain later.

Coming.

Who are you?

What do you want?

Where is Patrick?

- I dont know, hes not here.

Hold on, man.

Let me be.

I thought you guys

were having a great f***.

Yep, super great.

I dont know what you

see in that a**hole.

I have everything...

...you need right here.

Over my dead body.

- All you need, b*tch.

Over my dead body.

Relax. Relax.

Im so fed up with you, Caiman.

Tell that douche that he

has a week to pay up...

...the tab he has with me.

- You tell him and dont...

...get me involved in your sh*t.

- Move aside, goddamnit.

Move.

I warned you.

You know how I get

when I dont get paid.

Done?

Im going to get you.

Youll fall one day, you b*tch.

Im going to get you.

Screw you, whore.

Whatever were you

thinking, Jean Paul?

I couldnt say no.

Theyre leaving tomorrow.

What did you want me to do?

I really dont know, but it

isnt our responsibility either.

Just what we needed.

Hello.

And if the mother acts

like she didnt know a thing?

We dont know who it is.

Come on, dont be dramatic.

Its just for a short time.

When shes released,

well give him back...

...and if not, well give him to

Ivana and she can handle it.

Shell know. Period.

Youre so incongruent.

I thought we were done

with that subject.

Yes, a friend of mine

died around here.

Hendrix?

Hendrix?

Im home.

Do you think its OK?

I couldnt hold it in.

Youre not a doggie, are you?

Dont scorn him like that.

Ill change the sheets.

Who does the cleaning?

Me, right?

Prepare the bath, Mrs. Chuy.

And you, get out of those

clothes, you stink.

Come on, off with them.

Youll get worms coming

out your butt.

Dont tell him that.

Didnt you hear?

Prepare the bath.

Nina?

Nina?

Nina, wake up.

Wake up.

Wheres your son?

Come on, wake up.

Hes in his room.

- Up, Nina.

For Petes sake, Nina.

Wake up, please.

Come. Wheres your son?

- Where are we going?

Wake up already and come.

Come here.

Calm down.

- Who are these a**holes?

No, no.

Let me go. Let go.

Easy, easy.

Calm down.

- Help.

Theyre kidnapping me.

- Lets go.

Let me off.

- Lets go.

Let go of me.

Let go of me.

Let go.

Let go of me.

Who are you?

Hendrix.

'Genrriz'?

- Hendrix.

What the f***. Who

gave you that name?

Mom did.

- Whos your mom?

Nina.

Nina?

Well youve got some

f***ed up names there.

Come.

Wheres your lady mama?

In the hospital.

Why?

- Cause shes sick.

Sick with what?

- I think she had a breakdown.

Is she neurotic or what?

A little bit.

What are you doing hereabouts?

'Genrriz'?

Where?

- Here, this house.

Jean Paul told me Im

going to stay here...

...while mom gets better.

- That so?

So your mom is their friend.

Dont know.

Id never seen them.

Did they tell you

where to sleep already?

I slept in the guest

room last night.

Alone or with the men?

Alone.

How old are you, 'Genrriz'?

- Seven.

Seven. Youre getting some

little mars balls there, huh.

At your age, I had a girlfriend.

Not like other people.

- Who?

Other people just going around.

They cant stand women.

They just see them

and they throw up.

But youre a manly boy, right?

Whats manly?

Manly. It means you like

the ladies, dont you?

I like hanging around

with boys better.

What the....

You a sissy too?

What is a sissy?

Like... your relatives.

- What relatives?

Your uncles, don Chema

and don 'YoPolo'.

Theyre my uncles?

Heaven forbid.

Youre a little man, arent you?

Not like the kind of men who

get off on pushing up their beans.

I like beans too.

What the hell? Youre not

the brightest crayon, are you.

Just let me tell you. Dont hang

around with them for too long.

They say its contagious.

And if it is, Ill be seeing

you hang around the house...

...wearing a little skirt.

- What are you saying? Im not a girl.

Thats more like it.

Thats the way.

Come on, manly face.

Attention.

High five.

Thats it.

Leave.

Leave.

Hendrix, didnt they ever tell

you its not polite...

...to enter a room

without knocking first?

Chema?

Were off on the wrong foot.

Very bad.

And you, Mrs. Chuy,

be very careful.

I dont want to see the

kid hang around my room.

Got it?

- It isnt my fault.

Why leave the door open?

- All the more reason. Look after him.

Why me?

- Because I say so.

End of discussion.

Jose Maria, the boy isnt to blame.

- On top of everything I have to do...

...I have to guard the doors.

Hendrix, dont you want to

go out and play for a bit?

Come on, go.

Dont mind him,

hes having his period.

Ha, ha, ha.

Great sense of humour.

Funny man.

No, no, no.

Dont be nosy.

This isnt yours.

Whats up, Rafa?

Let me out, will you?

I have to go see my son, man.

Dont be an ass.

Dont insult me, you cookie.

Up yours, a**hole.

Why were they kissing?

Because...

...foreigners are like that.
