What am I, Mexican or a foreigner?

Youre Mexican, like me.

Gabino says I have the name

of a foreigner hippy.

Why do you listen to

that ignorant dwarf?

Do foreigners sleep in the nude?

Stop asking that kind of questions.

Do Mexicans?

- Do Mexicans what?

Do they sleep in the nude and

kiss each other and stuff?

No, boy, Mexicans dont.

And neither do you.

With all due respect, youre

out of your freaking mind, sister.

Just imagine if the boy

comes out dumb, or crazy...

...or a druggie, or gay.

My God, whod be the father?

Youre crazy, Ivana.

- This is how it goes.

Let me explain it bit by bit.

Listen.

The egg would be Glorias...

...but I would have the baby.

That way the kid

runs no risks.

Got me?

Got it.

How modern.

How perverse.

Why all the bullshit, anyway?

At first we both wanted

to get pregnant.

Thats what I last learned.

And finally, I gave in.

- I see.

But after analysing the situation...

...I came to the conclusion

of wanting to be part...

...of the process too.

I told her. Shes not

very convinced yet...

...but Im sure shell

end up accepting.

Damn you, Ivana.

Youve got a few loose screws.

And whats my role

in all of this?

Thats the thing.

Lets suppose that,

for example...

...you were the donor.

Me?

The egg would be Glorias, but

the genetic part would be us.

It may even look like me.

Right. Im sure Gloria

thinks its an awesome idea.

For sure, she agrees. Ivana,

Gloria will have a sh*t-fit.

She doesnt know yet.

And, well?

I want to know what you think.

I think...

...I need more caffeine. Miss.

Thats why I wanted

to ask, Father.

I say it isnt right.

It may even be a sin.

This isnt a confession, Jesusa.

You need advice. Come out...

...join me out here.

OK, Jesusa...

...what sin is it you talk of?

Im surprised by your attitude.

How long have you

worked in that house?

I stopped counting years, Father.

Then you know your bosses.

You know theyre good people.

You know that kid couldnt be...

...in better hands than theirs.

Yes, Father, but...

...I dont know why, but I feel like

something wrong might happen to him.

What do think might happen?

That which you imagine,

has nothing to do...

...with your bosses

sexual preferences.

Dont mix things up, Jesusa.

- But Father.

If you only knew how many questions

the boy is asking me right now.

I dont know what to answer.

- Well, all you have to do...

...is see to it that the boy

respects your patrons...

...spaces of intimacy.

Thats it.

Got it?

- Yes, Father.

Go to sleep already.

Theres a lot to be done.

May God be with you.

Why do you have these ladies?

Theyre my family, 'Genrriz'.

Why cant I go into the hospital?

Because theres a lot

of sick people in there.

You cant make any noise.

- And if Im real quiet?

No can do, 'Genrriz', my man.

Stop thinking about that.

You just wait and see. Your

mom will get better soon...

...and send out for you.

But I dont want to be

left alone again.

She wont.

Thats why youre here

with us, arent you?

Whos your man?

- You are.

Wholl care for you?

- You.

There he is.

Hendrix?

Hendrix?

What are you doing here?

Come...

...Ive got a surprise for you.

We have to unload some

things off the truck.

Yes, boss.

Hey, little man.

Right.

Here.

Alright.

One...

...two...

...three.

What do you think?

I want to go see my mom.

Where do you know Fidel from?

He was a security in a joint

where I worked some years ago.

Im a DJ.

In case you have an event or party.

Is this what you do now?

Not at all, no.

No, Fidel told me

about your problem.

And I think we can help

each other out.

I know its a b*tch to

adopt here in Mexico, right?

Youll be looking at least three,

four years doing paperwork.

And that is if they

give you the baby.

Yes, thats what I learned.

Its a nightmare to adopt a baby.

I know, I understand.

But I know a boy whos amazing.

The best thing that could

happen to him would be...

...getting adopted

by someone like you.

How old is he?

Hes seven or eight.

Months old?

No. Years, years.

But hes a cutie.

Hes a white, like us.

Id think you and the missus are

looking for a fine boy, arent you?

No, we havent even

talked about it.

She has no idea of any of this.

But really, man, I was

thinking of a baby.

Can I give you a friendly advice?

What?

If youre going into this,

youd rather adopt a big boy.

Youll save up on lots of sh*t.

Hospitals, diapers,

vaccines, you know.

And the best thing is you know

right away what he looks like.

You wont get any surprises.

I mean...

...you dont have that

many options either.

The boy I told you about

is really something else.

In fact, a couple of Italians

just got in touch with me.

Theyre ready to

take him back home.

Where can I see him?

Yeah, hes pretty cute.

Told you. And besides

hes cool, this one.

Hes not dark skinned like most?

What do we have to do?

Relax, relax. One...

...then the other.

Very well done.

I dont want to.

- Come on, Hendrix.

Just see. You have to

learn how to swim, OK?

What would happen if

you fell into the pool?

Come on.

Relax.

Relax.

Relax already, Hendrix.

Dont talk to him like that,

he wont learn like that.

You mind your own business and

dont stick your nose into this.

Go check on the soup.

Ill be checking on you, son.

The soup. Its burning.

Hasnt something infected you?

- Something?

Syphilis? Gonorrhoea? STDs?

No, no, what are you saying?

Who does she think shes...

...talking with, Ioosey Goosey?

No, baby. FYI, Im not promiscuous.

Im just asking.

You men are something else.

Im just judging from the

circles you move in.

Gloria, there was no need for that.

I take pictures of celebrities...

...but I dont f*** them.

- Look.

Yet.

There are the results.

They just came in.

Hes a healthy boy.

Are you sure of what

youre about to do?

Sure.

Up to where I know,

Im nothing more...

...than a simple sperm donor.

If everything goes well...

...in nine months Ill

become the beautiful uncle...

...of a baby.

An uncle and thats that.

Gloria, relax already.

Give me your hand.

I swear to you, Im not

interested in becoming...

...anybodys dad, OK?

But anyway youd have to sign...

...a kind of contract...

...in which you desist

of any future claim.

Gloria, dont get all hung up.

Send me your girls with the...

...claim desisting thing...

...and Ill sign so

you dont lose any sleep.

One more thing. Its just...

Ivana talked of

economic compensation.

Because, yknow, lately

my sperm is rising on the market?

Its practically a luxury item.

So then...

...I wanted to know...

- Sure, Ill send you a check...

...along with the documents

youve got sign for us.

OK.

Dont even think of

sleeping around much.

Oh, no, of course not.

OK. Any other questions

or suggestions?

You have a visa?

And MasterCard, baby.

Which one is more aggressive?

The white shark or the bull shark?

I think it must be the white shark...
