Let's visualize what we want

to obtain with this victory.

Concentrate...

...and charge that

image with energy.

Tomas! Tomas!

-Are you talking to me?

-Aren't you Tomas?

-May I help you?

-And your motorcycle?

I sold it... To bet on Lefty.

-Then, come with me.

-Wherever you say, Miss.

-Where's Julian?

-He's under arrest.

Why is he under arrest?

Commander Romo

arrested him.

-But why?

-He took Lefty to the quarry.

-He had kidnapped him.

-What nonsense!

He was also looking

for him!

-He's not here.

-Where is he?

I don't know. The Commander

arrested him.

Where's that bas...

commander?

I don't know, Tomas!

He hasn't reported in.

He's very busy now.

We must speak to

Commander Romo!

The problem is that

he's not here now.

-Oh, no!

-We came to report a theft.

Of what?

Cocoon, they stole

the festival's money.

-What?

-Just what I said.

The Wizard! The Wizard!

The Wizard!

-Commander Romo!

-Yes, Miss?

We want to know

where Julian is.

Oh, the guy who wanted

to kidnap our champ.

Don't be stupid!

Hey, hey, I can

arrest you too.

For disrespect to the

authorities. How about that?

We are very proud

of this boy's talent.

I'm going to have

an op... operation.

Yes, yes, son.

I want to do some repairs in

the temple, it's falling apart.

Oh, so you bet.

I caught you.

Oh, yeah! My boyfriend,

my boyfriend!

Of course he's my boyfriend.

You're just envious!

Me, envious?

I almost beat him!

Beat him?

He always whips you!

Stop quarreling, kids.

He's my pal.

Liar, you were always

fighting with him.

-What do you know!

-Shut up!

If he doesn't win,

what are we going to do?

Don't be so stubborn!

I told you he's going to win!

Think of the confidence

in Lefty.

The bets are three to one.

-Really?

-Yes.

Who's that?

The stranger.

The Wizard's manager.

What's going on?

We have an issue with them.

Don't worry.

They'll be right back.

Wizard! Wizard!

Wizard!

What's that child

doing there?

-Leave her alone.

-You're too indulgent!

He's going to be

our champ.

-Where were they?

-By the quarry.

-Where did they take him?

-I don't know.

What do you mean?

He must be somewhere!

-Let's go to the quarry!

-I can't leave the office.

The commander left me

in charge.

Besides, I'm not authorized.

Please Cocoon, take us!

But I have other matters

to investigate.

I can't leave this

place unattended.

Either you take us

to the quarry...

...or we'll raise a scandal.

And the ones charged with...

...kidnapping will be

you and your commander.

Hello.

The lady is

Lefty's mother.

Ladies and gentlemen...

...let me introduce this

evening's contenders!

They will face each other in

a match never before seen!

So he's your son.

To my right...

...from Santa Maria...

The Wizard!

He's 11 years old.

To my left...

...from Buenaventura...

Lefty!

I couldn't tell you because

you never showed up.

Wizard!

Wizard!

I didn't show up because

I had an accident.

Later I looked for you

but you had already moved.

Wizard!

Wizard!

Wizard!

Wouldn't you prefer

the Centennial?

No, thanks.

The match is about to begin.

They will play up

to sixty points.

Go, go back to your place!

Let me see my son! Go!

-We need to talk.

-Later... later...

Wizard!

Wizard!

Wizard!

Lefty! Lefty! Lefty!

The Wizard's an ass!

Lefty! Lefty! Lefty!

Wizard:
00

Lefty:
01

It's yours, Lefty.

Yes!

Lefty! Lefty! Lefty!

It's yours Lefty!

Yes, Lefty!

Fifteen minute recess.

Where are you going?

My kids stay with me.

-You're doing great!

-Did they find my uncle?

No, son. But they're

looking for him.

You're doing great, Lefty!

Yes, but I need to go

to the bathroom.

Let's go, then.

Get the hell out of here,

snot nose!

And I warn you, Lefty...

If you're thinking about

winning... you'll regret it.

Oh, and congratulations.

Your game is excellent.

Didn't you want

to take a leak?

I don't feel like it anymore.

Lefty! Lefty! Lefty!

Julian!

Julian!

Julian!

Do something!

Do something!

Julian!

I don't know what

Romo said to you...

...but everybody in here

is with you.

So shoot a ''Hit and

Hand-spread''.

Lefty:
59

If he makes that shot...

we win.

Is he alive?

Lefty! Lefty! Lefty!

The winner is Lefty!

Lefty! Lefty! Lefty!

Good, Lefty!

This is the hand-spread

of a man, murderer!

Watch out, Lefty!

Let him go, Romo!

What's wrong?

Why aren't they here?

They're coming.

He's your dad.

How long are you going to

stay with your dad?

The whole vacation.

It will go quickly.

Want to play, Lefty?

No, thanks.

I mean, you could shoot with

your right hand, couldn't you?

Not as well as

with the left.

It's a present.

Thanks.
