Youre going to regret this.

Nina.

I dont agree, Luisa.

Besides, what do you know of

what the boy has been through?

It doesnt matter what they tell

you, you wont love him as a son.

Instead of thinking

stupid things like that...

...you should go get

checked by a good doctor.

Not like the quack

Agustin took you to.

Im going to have to speak

very seriously with your father.

That is child trafficking,

in case you didnt know.

And bringing those people here?

- What do I do then, goddamnit?

Luisa cant get pregnant again,

and adopting a kid...

...in this f***ing

country is a huge mess.

If what you want is

to have a kid...

...give your mother and me

a grandson, get another woman.

Youre too young to have to

do your life over, man.

That relationship has never worked.

Dont act dumb.

And a child wont make things better.

Itll just make them worse.

Most of all if hes not yours.

Ours.

Get what Im saying?

Youve got to help us

out with this, Tomas.

The kid has no school.

That boy is never going to

have a normal life, Jean Paul.

What he needs is

psychological assistance.

Yes, we know, but...

...he also needs...

...to go to school.

- That goes without saying.

But I dont know if this

is the best option for him.

I dont want to have to imagine

the faces the PTA will make...

...when I even suggest this.

They can all go f***

Themselves, cant they?

Honey, calm down.

Jean Paul...

...you know who the

PTAs members are?

Yes.

- You know how much they contribute...

...to this institution

in a monthly basis?

So then, Tomas,

youre talking about money.

I mean, come on. You should

have told us beforehand...

...and wed saved ourselves...

...a couple thousand words.

Money isnt a concern.

In your specific case

it isnt about money.

Then what is it?

- There are three variables.

For example, this is

a bilingual school.

We need to know the

kids academic level.

Tomas, please,

dont be ridiculous.

Hendrix isnt applying for college.

He only needs to see other people.

Get along with them.

Thats it.

I dont know.

Id have to do some heavy

convincing to do...

...with the PTAs members.

Theyre conservative people.

Tomas...

...well owe you one.

Maybe if you wanted to...

...contribute a

large amount of money.

I dont know.

Maybe itll help us...

...build a pool for the school.

Youre such a cynic.

- Im not a cynic. Im realistic.

The only way in which Hendrix

can come to this school...

...is if he represents

a benefit to the community.

Sweetheart, hes right.

Poor kids.

They come to this school...

...in their luxury import cars

with chauffeurs. Well fed.

I guess youre thinking that

for Hendrix, it might be better...

...if we enrol him

in a public school.

I mean, theres no need

to be bilingual there.

Economic contributions, right?

- Lets see.

If the problem is the PTA...

...why dont you let

us do the talking?

Why are you so afraid?

Well, if the members

have nothing else to say...

...then the most convenient

thing is to talk with Father Tomas...

...because I think this is

not our decision to make.

Hes the one with the final say.

One last thing,

for all of our sakes.

Avoid public displays of affection.

- You censoring us, Tomas?

Thats a way of saying it, yes.

So I wont be able to grab my

husbands butt in the school fair.

Not in any way or manner.

If you want to grab his butt,

grab it at home...

...without the kid seeing you.

No worries.

After ten years with him...

...public displays of affection

are well under control.

I dont even get any at home.

Thats bull.

- Tomas, relax already.

Oh. Right.

Hello?

- Listen to me, you a**hole.

If you dont want to

be in deep sh*t...

...you two need to get

the boy to me, now.

Who is this?

Youll meet me soon enough,

and I dont think you want to.

Dont you threaten me.

Its OK to need help.

When is mom coming out

of the hospital?

I dont know, Hendrix.

We have to be patient, okay?

Look at this one.

Its great.

Its OK to have a worm for a pet.

Its OK to have several moms.

Its OK to have several dads.

Its OK to be adopted.

Its OK to do something good

for someone else.

Its OK to be different.

Youre special and important,

just because...

...youre you.

Is it OK if mom comes

live here with us?

Maybe.

- Alright.

Hit the sack, alright.

- Come here.

We have to go to school tomorrow.

Your new school. Imagine that.

Little guardian angel...

- My sweet company...

...dont desert me...

...not at night, not by day...

...because if you leave me...

...Id be lost.

In the name of the Father...

- Of the Son...

...and of the Holy...

...and of the Holy Spirit...

Amen.

Come.

Come here.

Id like to introduce a

new classmate to you.

His name is Hendrix, and

from today hes going to share...

...the classroom with you, OK?

Welcome, Hendrix.

- Welcome, Hendrix.

I could give you the

son you want so badly.

That again.

I dont understand what

youre doing there.

Me neither.

I cant leave her.

Now less than ever.

Im not going to wait

for you my whole life.

I dont think its fair.

Okay.

Youve got the right to

do whatever you want.

Do I?

Yes.

If youd rather stick with Luisa,

then dont call me anymore.

How was your new school?

- Cool.

But I dont understand a thing.

Why speak English if were in Mexico?

Thats so you learn a new language.

No, no. No sticking your hands

into the plate, little boy.

Thats why there are utensils.

Why do you guys kiss

each other in the mouth?

Well...

...Chema and I are...

Good friends.

- No, no, no.

Jose Maria.

- Dont confuse him more, Jean Paul.

Jose Maria.

- Please.

Bear with me. The boy understands.

Jean Paul and I are a couple, OK?

And we kiss each other because...

...we love each other very much.

So youre boyfriends.

Yes.

Just like there are

men who like women...

...there are men who

like other men.

Jose Maria, enough.

- Come, Jean Paul.

Alright?

- Relax.

Lets see.

Its like with food.

Do you like liver?

- Dont know. I havent tried it.

And dont even try it.

You wont like it.

- There you go. See?

He doesnt like it.

- But I do.

And that doesnt make

one better than the other.

Not you...

...not him...

...not me.

But one things for sure.

Were different.

Gabino says youre

a couple of fags.

One more comment...

...and youre out of this house.

Got it?

Yes, young man.

Yes, boss.

Little brat rat.

I almost got the boot cause of you.

It just came out. Forgive me?

'It just came out'.

Just keep doing it, youll...

See if I ever take you

out to the wrestling matches.

These two are crazy.

They should be interned...

...theyre so crazy.

Another one.

- Why?

I dont know why

youre so freaked out.

Nowadays everything is possible.

That goes for you, darling.

Us, the men, remain screwed up.

It doesnt matter how much we f***,

he just wont get pregnant.

Who lives here?

No idea.

Id never been here.

Its easy to see you

have a lot of money.

I know Im a little...
