- Yes.

You said you were an hour away.

Yes, but after we talked, I fell asleep.

Why do not you answered the phone?

I was unsigned. No battery.

Duarte. My condolences for your loss.

I'm sorry to meet you under these difficult circumstances.

How was the trip?

Long.

This does not delay. You just have to recognize them.

Identification, please.

O bucket.

That will be difficult. Uncover them.

Way.

Ready. He has recognized them.

Notes the document number and I do a scribble.

It's ok.

- And burning them. - Sure.

This is for you.

- Molina is ready? - Yes, there is.

Quick, go get him.

Sent cremate them, as you told me.

No, this is Molina.

Thy will be ready tomorrow.

Poupas at the wake and funeral.

Who is the Molina?

It's the guy that killed your mother and your brother.

Tomorrow you have to come get the ashes of your family and sign some papers,

to end the proceedings.

Now we have to go to the police station.

One thing is right.

On 11 February,

retired Air Force sergeant, Daniel Molina,

here represented by Mr Duarte,

shot on his partner ...

With a semi-automatic rifle.

But you is the killer?

Yes, to be faster. I explain later. Continues.

With a semi-automatic rifle,

causing the death of Mrs. Amelia Suarez

and his son, Emilio Cetarti,

suiciding-is followed.

What is not clear is why.

Any idea?

I?

No. I had almost no contact with them.

We are of Tucuman.

I went to Buenos Aires with 18 and barely had contact since.

I did not even know my mother

He had remarried and was living with my brother.

No, your mother lived with Molina. Your brother was visiting.

Also do not know if there were problems between his brother and Molina?

Do not know.

Tell-me, because it represents this as Mr. Molina?

Right. I am the executor of his will.

An executor is responsible for fulfilling the will of the deceased.

I and Molina are ...

I am, he was a retired Air Force sergeant.

In the military, is appointed as executor always a companion,

to help the family in all dealings and all that.

If I had happened to me,

he would have done the same for me.

He spoke of some insurance? Life insurance?

Here's what's happening.

Molina had a life insurance policy on behalf of your mother.

Twenty-five thousand pesos of the social background of the Air Force.

Because of what happened,

we can treat that you may receive that money.

It will not be easy.

But, if I can,

we share the money fifty-fifty. What do you think?

I think we can go prisoners.

Do not worry, I know the right people.

Wait.

You do not have any disability?

What?

Yes, mentally.

No, why?

What a pity. I could withdraw more money.

Good...

I got it and I will keep you informed.

One thing,

how did you find me?

Your data were in your mother's notebook.

It was necessary to deal with the paperwork.

To do everything as it should be.

It's strange she have my data.

We can go in the house to see if I can find something useful?

Yes we can.

But there is the ex-wife of Molina.

- Because? - The house now is it.

It was on behalf of Molina, but as he did not marry your mother ...

It's there.

Duarte, what are you doing here?

I brought you this.

I came up with the son of the deceased.

The other her son.

Yes it's me. Javier.

I'm so sorry.

He came to see her mother's things.

What a disaster! It is not, my dear?

I had nothing to do with it,

but here I am, to clean up this mess.

I've always been the most foolish.

Take a look.

Talvez encounters something.

Taking.

Are the keys to your brother. They must be his house.

We can go there to try them.

Find anything?

- Already. - have you finished?

I follow you home from your brother.

I did not know him, but I know where he lives.

Where he lived.

Come on.

Marta, let's go.

It's ok. Let me the keys.

Excuse? What?

The keys of the house.

Bye.

I'm so sorry.

It seems abandoned.

Sim,

but your brother lived here.

Listen ...

... because you stay not here a few days?

To treat the insurance papers.

It's cheaper than a hotel or returning to Buenos Aires

and then return.

Yes. It only takes a few days to get the money, is not it?

Do not.

First you need to prepare and submit the application.

Then you have to wait.

Maybe we can go home. You'll see.

Do not be anxious. If you had not called,

the insurance money would have been for the state.

I thank you for that.

You're welcome.

I forgot to ask. You want a ride back?

Do not worry.

If I am walking, certainly arrangement ride.

Buns!

Can you let me in veterinary?

Again to eat sh*t.

Feed you properly.

Ever eaten. This is dessert.

You have to take me to the cemetery.

For what?

They are my things.

Come and go the same day.

I'll talk to Duarte.

Because you have to ask permission to Duarte?

I have to ask permission,

but we have things to do.

He pitched in silly with the keys.

We have to take the furniture of your father ...

... burn everything

and then we'll live there.

I do not mind being in this house.

I do care.

Because we live in a borrowed house?

I dream of the day you will not have to return to see the Duarte.

Will you help me, will not you?

Doing what?

The burn the furniture.

Sim.

Your mother has not given the pills to dogs?

I think so.

Perhaps they are as people.

They may gain resistance to tablets.

Toma. It tells you to increase the dose.

But not too much. The sleep are useless.

I brought you some weed.

That lasts for two days, at least.

You did well?

Do you have something to look at this?

- Thank you. - Bye.

I spoke to the staff of the social background and sergeants club.

There's no problem.

But they want a bribe.

Do you understand?

It would weights 32 000.

Twelve for you, 12 for me

and eight for bribery. Can be?

They were told that they were 25 000.

And I thought coming here to receive.

But I told them that incapacitated ages

I was half paralyzed and you had a delay.

It's very good. You can receive more.

It will take longer, but you can expect ...

Sim.

Can I get some time.

Very well.

Toma. You can have this.

Sim.

It is a mess, but you can live.

Sign here.

Sim.

Some of these things

They may have some value.

How am broke,

I would ask around ...

You know someone who might be interested in buying?

In buying this garbage?

I know everybody.

I do not usually smoke ...

... but this is good stuff.

When you want, I always have.

- Accepted 600 pesos? - Yes.

Done deal.

Very well.

The money is all there.

Very well.
