The Fury of a Patient Man

Let's go! Let's go!

Start her up! Start her up!

Let's go! Let's go!

- Cops! Go, go!

- F***!

Let's go!

God!

Jesus f***ing Christ!

THE FURY OF A PATIENT MAN

Afternoon.

What can I get you?

I'll get it.

You call the beer people.

You haven't called them yet?

What'll it be?

White coffee, please.

- Something wrong?

- No.

- Afternoon.

- What's up. Charo?

I left you a tray,

it's meatballs today.

- No, thanks, I had a bite.

- Everything alright?

Yeah, fine.

THE BAR:

Two high and one low,

three, plus two pair, five.

Two of mine, seven bids...

Come on, one left.

If you put that low again

I'm outta here, man!

You're obsessed!

All the time!

- It's my hand. What can I do?

- Shut up.

- Can I take this?

- A short coffee.

- High and low, no looking.

- You've already had three.

Never mind, they're paying.

- Any pork scratchings left?

- Pork scratchings now?

- Jos?

- No, thanks.

Come on, pairs.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- No.

- Pass.

All of them. F*** it.

- Hit me.

- Son of a b*tch!

Now who's bald?!

What do you want me to do?

F***ing nice! Whoah!

If you're no good at it,

go back to your plumbing.

- Your deal, f*** it!

- A f***ing winning streak!

You've got two pair now?

Don't sh*t me!

Jos! What a thrashing

we gave them, eh?!

Hi! I'm leaving you

Lucky Luke here.

Wow! That's looks great!

He wanted to dress like a cowboy

and I can't get it off him.

Tell your dad what you asked me for.

What's up, Jos?

- Hi, Pili.

- What's my girl want?

- A miniskirt.

- A miniskirt?

I'm buying a leash for you!

C'mon, Daddy, I'm so cute.

- Anything else, Jos?

- No, thanks.

- Pass me my bag.

- Ok.

That hairstyle suits you.

Thanks.

Here.

Juanjo, the kids are staying.

Keep an eye on them.

Let's go.

- See you.

- See you, handsome.

Your sister looks sad.

She's got a temper,

she's real hard to put up with.

What we talked about yesterday,

the statement and all that...

Don't worry,

you'll have it Monday.

Thanks a lot, Jos.

I owe you big time.

You're taking a load off us,

my head's...

- It got tricky, huh?

- What did?

Your brother-in-law.

If it's not next week,

it'll be the one after.

What can we do? Nothing.

Right.

But my sister gets so nervous,

no one can handle her.

It'll be out of the frying pan

and into the fire.

You look like crap.

Hello.

Can't you sleep either?

I was finishing some stuff.

At two in the morning?

I've got no time.

There's not enough hours in the day.

I see you never stop.

You always look wound up.

Sure. I've got a lot on my plate.

But I don't like complaining.

Get on with it,

that's what we all do.

Not all of us.

THE FAMILY:

Afternoon.

Hello.

Your aunt left you a bag

with a bottle and things.

She says she can never

get you on our cellphone.

She's invited you

to dinner with them.

Forgive me for meddling, Jos,

but I know you, okay?

You should get out more,

meet people, have fun,

- be with the family...

- Thanks, Charo.

Hey, Jos!

I thought you weren't coming.

I said:
"It's late, he's not coming".

- I brought a bottle...

- You didn't need to!

Jos, you fag! Lucky you've come

or I'd have stopped talking to you.

- I got this for the girl.

- Really?

I won't kiss you

because I'm married.

But whatever you want,

I'm your man.

- You want a drink? Women?

- He's a pain when he drinks.

Come meet Pili's sister,

she just separated.

She's as big as an ox,

but nice and warm...

- Are you a moron, or what?

- But honey, is it true or not?

- Stop goofing around.

- I love you when you get mad!

You get all silly.

Get off me, you idiot!

It's so hot.

My bracelet's too big for me.

It'll fit when you're older.

Last year,

Rubn Gmez from 4B

gave me a bracelet

his ex gave back when they split up.

- You've already got boyfriends?

- I did.

But don't tell my dad,

he'll get mad.

- Do you have a girlfriend?

- No.

8 years in October.

After my brother-in-law's thing,

my sister wanted to move away.

And I met her here.

I think it was fate,

I got her pregnant straight away.

I've got Pili right here

in the palm of my hand.

That woman's done so much for me.

Sometimes I think:

"Am I missing out on

stuff with my buddies

and screwing up big time."

You know what I mean?

But then I get home

from working like a bastard

and my girl's waiting for me,

that's just the greatest.

I wouldn't change that for anything.

Your buddies are around,

they are what they are,

but family?

Family is blood, Jos.

That's the way it is.

You're a great guy. Sh*t!

You're really great.

Good evening and thanks for coming

to our daughter's communion.

It's so exciting for us parents:

her first communion.

Wasn't she beautiful?

No, stunning!

I don't care how much

the dress cost.

I love you all,

but especially you, honey.

Come on!

Hey, Jos, having a good time?

- Nice communion, huh?

- Yes.

Isn't it nice?

And how about Anita?

How does green suit her?

She looks pretty, huh?

And your brother-in-law?

Juanjo said he's out in a week.

Him? Do you want to ruin

the communion for me?

- Don't you get on with him?

- No opinion either way.

I don't even know him.

Everyone says he's a good guy.

Eight years he's been in jail.

He can't be that good, right?

I really love Anita, Jos.

I love her a lot.

Inside or outside of jail

he's been trouble for her.

You look a bit tense too.

Don't look at me like that, Jos,

we're not 15 years old.

And out of sight...

Hey, mum's the word.

Come here.

You listen to me.

What's wrong? Jealous?

You're so short!

That's better.

Where'd you come from?

How come you hang around

my neighborhood so much?

I like it.

You like what?

The neighborhood.

Get outta here!

You live in a f***ing nice area

in a house that's...

The living room's bigger

than my whole place.

How could you like this?

I like it.

You do?

You're kind of weird.

What else do you like?

What do you do?

I rent out two flats I inherited,

a garage, a store.

The house in the village,

I'll never sell that.

Maybe Pili's got a point,

you're a catch.

Anyway, man,

if you've got any spare...

The house in the village,

is it your parents'?

It was.

Is it nice?

The usual, I never go anymore.

And...

what if I go with you

and fix up the place?

We could both live there.

I could take care of you.

You could wake me up

in the morning with breakfast.

And we could hang out

like this all day,

doing nothing else.

Well, you could take me out

to dinner sometimes.

Or I could bring you dinner in bed.

What?

What about your boyfriend?

And your girlfriend?

I don't have one.

How long have you been with him?

Since I was 16.

You've been alone a while, huh?

What's the time?

I'm sorry.

I didn't want to bug you, sorry.

I've been alone for 8 years,

since he went to jail.

I got pregnant during a visit.

I know.

Juanjo told me.

What did he tell you?

He was the only one caught

in a jewelry store robbery.

And that someone died.

And he didn't know

who they were,

they just hired him
