The Secret in Their Eyes

THE SECRET OF THEIR EYES

June 21st, 1974...

was the last day that Morales had breakfast with Liliana Colotto.

And for the rest of his life

he would remember every detail of that morning.

They planned their first holiday, with some tea and lemon

because of the cold, that he drunk with some sugar.

he will always remember that real jam, that he would never taste again.

the tiny flowers on her dress

but mainly.. her smile.

that smile just awaken

mixed with that ray of sun in her cheek

and that...

-Hee hee, what a mother f***er...

-Less legs than a passport picture

-The gates of heaven must be op...

-Your highness...

-What a surprise!

-How are you?

-Nothing. I just came by to talk a bit. Are you busy?

-No, i was just looking over a speech, but i know it by heart. Coffee?

-I was asking, because maybe in your priestly life, you decided to take care of yourself.

-Mariano

-Yes, Doctor?

-Go to the coffee shop and bring us two coffees

who has this elderly problem

wait..you wanted me to say something important?

-No, well...think not

-Leave it open, kid. Come, sit down

so what do you know about writing books?

-What? i spent all my life writing.

I can show you all the files

-Ah, the files

and how many pages will you have in your new file?

does it have a title?

-a bit of help would be great

what do you want me to do?

to behave like someone retired?

asking if you need help, a coffee?

i want to write

what's wrong on that?

and i want to write about the Morales case

I don't know why

i was thinking about it

we never talked about it... why didn't we?

-With your handwriting

this is going to be a great mess

-ah, wait...look

-anyway, we will not have problems

at the pace I'm at...

...i couldnt finish the 5th line

I'll end up spending all my money on paper

-Come, come here, give me a hand

-cant believe it

-its really heavy

-cant believe it, the old Olivetti

-it was stocked with the case of

heary dwarf

-the "a" was fixed?

-hah, how funny, with the "a" anybody can write

take it, you two dinasours

will come to an understanding

-i think that now, i won't have any excuses.

i will have to write

but where can i start?

-Start where you remember the best

it was 20 years ago, what is it?

what do you think most about?

-guys, allow me to introduce you to

your new boss...

just come from Harvard

Miss Irene Menendez Hasting

-Hasting, it is Hasting, its scottish

-i'm sorry

-Hasting, new secretary of judge

-subofficial first, Benjamin Esposito

-in fact i went to Cornell, not Harvard

-A pleasure, Pablo Sandoval

official, but first, at your service

-Che, whats up?

are you here?

-Yeah

no, its that I can thin of many ways to start.

But I'm not sure that

they're connected with the story

-then start with the beginning

and don't f*** with it

-blood bank, hello?

-Mr Esposito

-secretary 18th, it's their shift

-but they say its rape-murder

-secretary 18th!

-good morning

-good morning

-miss secretary

Did a saint die?

-why?

-well, because angels are wearing black

-ah, no, its a trick we angels use

to look 3 kilos slimmer

bring the things on the Chavez case

we have to start with them

-of course

-you are such a tender kid

-why?

-why? A chick comes and you already

have a sentence for her?

-thing is... I may look like a frog

but I'm really a charming prince

-Mr Esposito

-What?

-they say that Dr Romano said

this case is for us

-Dr Romano? Tell him that

General Esposito is going to kick his ass

-ok

-where are you going, a**hole?

she comes, and i'm a blank

-forme is easier, Benja

i'm not in love

-me either, jerk

go on

-what i say is, you took the files

and put them right there

not too complicated

-Che, Romano, what did you

say to 25th? its yours

-we agreed to make on you

one us, whats the deal?

-a robbery, not a murderer, cheater

one and one if its the same

-what can i do? ask him to

Dr Fortuna Lacalle

-im asking for a solution

not 2 problems

-excuse me, my dear

why a problem?

-no, Dr. i meant, it would be childish

to bother you with this

its something we can solve

by ourselves

-by the agreement, the case is yours

and hurry up with it..

..or instead of a murder scene

you'll find a funeral

-how are you, Baez?

-here i am and you

-tired of being so happy

-i can see the joy in your face

-like a dog with two tails

if there's one thing i love...

it's that the a**hole Doctor

sends me to see a dead woman

-watch out, there are thousands of a**holes

like the easy a**hole, never bothers

he knows he's an a**hole

never f*** with anyone

-how are you inspector?

-hah, talking about you

-and we have the a**hole

that think he's a genius

screwing it all the time

and we must clean up their sh*t

like that, i dont have one

i have two:
judge and colleague from the 18th

i dont know if he's a jerk, a mother f***er...

or a clever combination of the two

this was his cause, thats why i ask you

if you can, talk with the judge, explain to him that...

-Liliana Colotto. 23 years old, teacher

married since the beginning of the year

to Ricardo Morales, from National Bank

-the old woman says that she didn't see anyone.

the two workers hadn't shown up for days

-sure about that?

-she said she hadn't seen them

-im going to see the husband at work

-im going with you

-Ricardo Morales?

-yes, that's me

-Inspector Baez, federal police

-somebody else had keys for your house?

Have you seen any strangers around recently?

A neighbour told us that you came home

every midday. Isn't that far to go?

sorry, i didnt understand

-we had a habit, to watch The Three Stooges together

at midday. She had so much fun...with them

-well, you will have to come with us

to the morgue. We'll try to make things fast

-che, whats the problem with the "a"?

please, take it away from here

-but where do i leave it?

-i dont know, but i cant even look at it

-hey, Benja. tell me if you like it:

by this i state that, I, the judge in criminalistic

Dr Fortuna Lacalle, declare myself...

..completely insane and incapable of acting.

-No, no, no. That's not the way.

let's see

no, no, its like this: because of articles number

i state, big letters, that Raimundo Fortuna

Lacalle, is a crazy man

demented, in juridical meaning
