It's temporary.

- Is there nobody here?

- No, we're all alone.

Make yourself at home.

- Does this become a bed?

- Yes.

Yes, it does.

We could open it out

and watch a film or something.

Yeah, we can lie down.

OK.

You want a drink?

A beer or anything?

If I take anything

I wouldn't like to drive after.

Well, you can always sleep here

tonight, if you feel like it.

Yes.

I want a beer!

Where's the kitchen?

At the end of the hall.

Jose Mari!

Christ! What is this?

It's a surprise.

We didn't come out sooner...

- A surprise?

- Your cousins are here from Elche.

Happy birthday!

- Can we come out now?

- No!

Thank you.

Please, hang on.

Don't do this to me, please.

- What'll we do?

- Anything, but don't make noise.

Miss Begoa will have to go

to the bathroom.

Hasn't she got incontinence pads?

Baby!

Is this your mom?

She's pretty!

Isn't she?

Now I understand what you said

about your uncle.

I don't remember anything

about uncles.

Shall I put on the TV?

You know, the man

with the camera store.

No, I don't remember

and I'll never remember.

What about the...

He's in love with your...

Surprise!

Happy birthday!

Wow, thank you!

Look, my cousins!

This is great!

I wasn't expecting this.

Thank you.

Good Lord!

Leave me alone.

It's not my fault

I saw you fall.

It's not my fault I saw...

You're between two lands

and you've got no air

left to breathe.

You're between two lands

and you've got no air

left to breathe.

You were great.

I didn't know you liked

the "Hroes del Zodiaco" too.

Sorry about earlier on,

but your Ecuadorian friend

was about to spill the beans.

It doesn't matter.

I'm thinking about telling her.

I've decided.

When it's the right moment,

I'll say it.

Who's your mother's

favorite singer?

I don't know.

Think, I'm singing next.

I don't know,

she likes the usual stuff.

Hello.

- Chema, one thing...

- Hi, Oscar, how are you?

Fine, it's just...

My mother told me

you had kidney problems.

No, I just had a few little stones,

I'm fine now.

You and Claudia...?

- Me and Claudia...?

- Are you...?

Oh, no, not at all.

We're...

We're friends, we get on great.

OK, because I'm going to try

to score with her.

You don't mind?

Me, mind? No way.

Not at all, I don't mind.

Do whatever you want.

Great, because she's a real looker.

She won't want to.

She'll say no.

But it's up to you.

Your family's really neat.

Yeah, they are, aren't they?

Really neat.

Yes, nearly all of them.

Nearly all?

Did you notice my cousin, Oscar?

Yeah, the handsome one.

No, he's not handsome.

And what's more,

he just got out of prison and...

- He was in prison?

- Yes, to do with drugs.

He was handing out drugs

at the school gates...

What?

- He's a son of...

- No, say it.

He's a son of a b*tch!

But I don't want you

to get a bad impression of him.

He's a nice guy at heart,

but, you know, 10 year old girls...

- How are things?

- Don't come near me.

- What?

- Chema told me everything.

- What did he tell you?

- That you're sick.

Because for me,

that's what you are.

That was ages ago.

And I had treatment for it.

What f***ing treatment?

You can never be cured.

Isn't she exaggerating a bit?

Well...

In Argentina, people like you

rot in prison.

- But they were very little...

- You son of a b*tch!

Jose Mari!

It's all right, I'm fine.

I got in the way, it's my fault...

Forgive me, I got very nervous.

I've never seen

a drug trafficker.

- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

- No, it's OK, I'm all right.

- Really? Maybe you're dizzy.

- No, I'm all right.

If you're dizzy, sleep here.

Well, maybe I am still a bit dizzy.

Then, stay.

You never stay.

You can sleep with me

or on the couch...

I'll sleep with you.

That way, you won't have

to make up the couch.

That's great!

I thought you'd never stay.

I'll get you something to sleep in.

No, don't worry.

Isn't it great?

We should do it more often.

Next time I'll bring my pajamas.

If I hug you during the night,

don't worry, I don't mean to.

Don't worry,

do whatever you want.

You're at home.

The word "lemur"

comes from the Latin "lemures"

which means "spirit of the night".

Nocturnal animals,

lemurs are known

for their large staring eyes

and their static posture.

The wide open eyes

and night time rigidity

relate the lemur

with the behavior of a boy who

sleeps with a girl who attracts him

but fears he'll be rejected.

Therefore he stares,

but he doesn't touch.

The behavior is known as

"doing a lemur".

Morning.

Are you awake?

I've just wakened this minute.

Wasn't this nice?

We'd have a great time

if we lived together.

Yes,

it might be nice.

The sofa-bed in your house

seems really uncomfortable.

Well, yes,

it might be nice.

Mom, my boxes! I'm leaving!

I said it was temporary!

Hello, Chema.

Elisa, what are you doing here?

Your mom called me.

I invited her to lunch,

you haven't met in ages.

She told me

about your Mexican friend.

She's Argentinean.

She isn't just my friend.

I'm going to live with her.

- She hit you with a bottle!

- I'll take this.

Uncle Jaime'll bring his van

for the rest.

Love, are you sure?

I'm happy,

and that's what matters.

- Hello.

- Sorry, wrong door.

You must be Chemita.

I'm Sebastian, come in.

Baby, look who's come

from Buenos Aires.

We've made it up.

We've made it up several times.

Now I've got my two guys here.

How about some limoncello?

OK.

- I've got everything.

- You're mistaken.

What apartment did you want?

- You're such a joker.

- I've don't know who you are.

Sorry, wrong apartment.

- Who was it?

- Someone made a mistake.

I want to thank you

for how you behaved with her.

Anyone else would have

taken advantage.

Taken advantage? No.

I'm not one of those.

I thought that thing of being

her friend was a way to score,

but she told me that

between you two there's no kind of

sexual tension.

No, well,

Claudia doesn't attract me.

Otherwise, we'd have

hooked up long ago.

I'm just the opposite.

She drives me crazy.

I've never seen anything like it.

She's the kind of woman

who doesn't mind doing

any kind of filthy stuff.

That one there

is the Great Bear constellation.

Inside it is the Whirlpool Galaxy,

some 37 million light years away.

So the light we have tonight

took 40 million light years

to reach Earth.

40 million years...

isn't that incredible, baby?

It's not so...

- You like the stars?

- Yes, well,

like everyone does.

And what's your favorite

constellation?

In the Milky Galaxy, you mean?

Well, the Great Bear.

And the Little Bear is nice too.

Is that all?

Well, there are lots more.

The star of Bethlehem.

Of Bethlehem?

Which is it?

Maybe it's got a different name

in Argentina.

Yes, maybe. But point it out.

Which is it?

Well...

That's it, there.

Yes, the red one.

The one that's moving?

It looks like a plane.

No, it's an amazing star.

I don't know how many millions

of light years it's got.

Yes, but it is moving a bit,
