Relax, then, there's no danger.

Believe me.

Right, are you listening?

Ass whore!

Sorry, my friend has a problem.

Did I ask for an explanation?

Since I've worked here, I see,

hear and shut up. I'm immune to it.

Don't get mad at me.

I apologize for the IT error

in the clinic today.

I tried to handle the doctor's

appointments with my Excel,

but they sold us on

updating the technology.

This new software

does what it wants,

but my Excel did

what I wanted it to.

Total war on progress.

We lose a lot of fares

with this car-sharing sh*t.

These days you can't have

a normal conversation,

everyone gazing at their phones.

I don't get it.

What are they looking for?

To get away from things, maybe?

I can't get in touch

with Dr. Palomero either.

His flight from London was delayed

because of Hurricane Demetrius.

- Oh, he's coming from there.

- Sure, he's a worldwide authority.

The news says that

Demetrius is abating.

Praise the Lord!

Are there many victims?

Look, there are magazines,

books, even games.

- What are you doing with them?

- Ordering them by date and genre:

gossip, health, psychology, cars,

the supernatural... Is that bad?

Have you ever considered

getting in on a time share?

I can tell you all about it.

Just what we needed!

That'll be him on the phone.

I'll keep you informed.

- Why don't you introduce yourselves?

- Miss,

this isn't group therapy, is it?

Thanks a lot.

Is it me or is that girl

incredibly irritating?

What a relief.

I thought it was just me.

This is a disgrace.

If he sees us one by one

-we'll be here all afternoon.

- And all night.

With my taps running

my bills will be sky high.

- Shall I calculate the expense?

- No!

"No!

- Roughly - No!

- No.

Do you mind if I open it?

What for?

Six people in one room,

with so much flu, bronchitis, pharyngitis,

laryngitis, to say the least,

-is not every healthy.

- It's not exactly warm,

so you'll make us all sick.

Two minutes and I'll shut it.

A**hole!

Thanks.

- Jesus! He never lets up.

- He's held on for some time.

- Looking for something?

- No, no, I'm giving

harmony to the whole.

Isn't anyone annoyed by disorder?

I'm annoyed that

they're taking us for idiots.

Where's the disorder?

It's not symmetrical.

This takes the cake.

What's your problem

with group therapy?

I don't like them.

I don't like group therapies.

They always laughed at me,

and the older I get,

the less I can handle it.

Personally, I'm not here

to laugh at anyone.

Neither am I. I assure you.

See, Federico? Relax.

I've done lots of group therapy

and no one made fun of anyone.

- Why don't we do what the girl said?

- What?

Introduce ourselves.

Go on then. Who starts?

Go on.

My name's Otto.

-"Oto".

- Otto.

Ilotoll-

O-T-T-O.

Get it?

Get what?

It's symmetrical.

My name's really Manolo,

but it's what my family

and close friends call me.

- Tell me something.

- Yes?

I'm kind of confused.

I don't understand

how someone like you...

You have a brain, right?

And you do sport, right?

Me? Sport?

It's genetic. Gee, that's lucky.

How can someone with

such great genes be unlucky in love?

Sorry.

I can't find it, as usual.

I can never find anything.

It's there, it's just a big bag.

Sorry.

I got a tip-off that the scanner

at an optician's was broken.

I'm selling these for 2O euros.

Want one?

My boss.

Hello, Nuri.

The signal's bad here. Hold on.

Yes, coming.

I have to work tonight.

I don't know if I told you, but...

Sorry, I'm going to the bathroom.

I'll be right back.

I won't be a sec.

I've had OCD since adolescence.

You've got what?

OCD. It stands for:

obsessive compulsive disorder.

OCD, OCD.

Unfortunately, it's what

we all suffer from here.

Excuse me, I don't have that.

I'm here to pick up some prescriptions

for a sick friend

who couldn't come herself.

Sorry, can you close the window?

We're all going to get pneumonia.

No, on the contrary,

that's how you get rid of microbes.

Alright, from now on

no more interruptions, okay?

- D*ckhead!

- Well, apart from Federico,

-who can't help it.

- What's the sense in that?

This way we break the ice

before the doctor comes.

No! I'm not interested in anyone's life

or people finding out about mine.

And if this is a con

to sell us time-shares,

we're in big trouble.

A niece of mine in the Canary Islands

got conned with all of that.

Fine, one less. Go on, Otto.

Awesome. My main OCD

is that I can't tread on lines

and I'm obsessed with order

and symmetry.

- And you are...?

- Otto.

Oh, and I'm a draftsman.

It's a bit absurd, but...

I also live with my mother.

- Is that an OCD thing too?

- No, it's a consequence.

My longest relationship

with a woman was...

three days.

They don't understand it.

And...

do you realize how often you say...

the word..."awesome"?

Really? I don't think so.

Really? I don't think so.

Yes. "Awesome, awesome".

"Awesome"? Are you sure?

- Awesome, awesome.

- Is that OCD too?

No. It's more like...

a lack of conversation.

Can I make a suggestion?

You see... a psychologist

told me once that

the color we choose

has a lot to do with...

our general mood.

For example, if you're...

depressive, your color's black,

but if you're an optimist,

what would your color be?

Pink?

That's stupid!

Did you read that in the Bible?

I've got it!

My color is green.

Green! Awesome. Why?

- He rubbed off on you.

- What?

- He rubbed off on you.

- What?

It's the middle color in a rainbow.

There's red, orange

and yellow on one side,

blue, indigo and violet

on the other... And in the middle?

Green.

And that isn't stupid?

Explain that to me.

What, lady, what do you want

explained to you?

The meaning of life, for example!

Why are we born where we're born?

Do we choose it or is it "barbitary"?

I don't understand!

Arbitrary, arbitrary.

- What did I say?

- Ask...

that invisible friend

you talk to all the time.

What invisible friend?

I only talk to the Lord.

That's right:
"Lord invisible".

I'm leaving!

You're rude, you know that?

There's no respect in this country,

no foundations.

I just remembered,

I need to buy a lettuce dryer,

-one that works.

- Don't buy it at the Chinese store.

- Where else then?

- A hardware store, maybe.

Relax, Ana Maria,

they're teasing you.

I'm relaxed,

I don't know what you mean.

Why? Tell me!

Then lighten up, lady.

Is that blond hair real

or is it dyed?

Another one!

Something offended her.

And she tells me to relax!

Explain that to me.

I always wanted to be a lawyer,

but with this symptom,

imagine the judge's face

if I had an attack in court.

"Your Honor, with all due respect..."

Sorry.

Sorry, I'm a real joker.

Sorry. I can't help it.

You'll get to know me...

So here in Spain

I decided to devote myself

to something...

I could do at home,

so I started selling birds.

Whore.

Shut up!

All the parrots I sold

got returned,

they said they were too rude.

What could I do?
