CHARACTERS AND SITUATIONS ARE FICTIONAL.
Hey, a beer?Yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
No, stop it.
Come here, dude. Come, come, come.
What are you doing? That's disgusting!
Does my breath stink?
Lend me your toothbrush.
No way. Why?Give me a break.
He likes me, dude. Alejandro likes me.
Why do you say that?Because
he let me touch his leg.
Ah! No way! When's the wedding?
Shut up, you're bitter.
He's not your target, okay?
He's mine. I'm going to kiss him.
Your breath stinks.Really?
Check under the sink,
there's some... washa, washa.
Mouthwash?Yes, that.
Okay, great! Dude, you'll see.
MIGUEL: Beer?
Yes!
ALEJANDRO:
What's up?
Hey, what's going on with Rodrigo?
What do you mean?
A little bird told me that they saw you
getting close at the bar.
Really?Yes.
No, no. We're just friends.
Like us or friends that like each other?
No.RODRIGO: Alejo.
Look, ha-ha-ha.
Anyway,
I don't want to interrupt
your conversation.
MIGUEL: Ah! Beer!
CRISTINA: Can I get one?
Is everything okay? Ha-ha-ha.
Man!What?
Man, I...
What?I wasn't expecting this.
It's...You weren't either. I know.
I don't know what you mean, Ro.
Okay...Yeah.
I really care about you.
You were a beam of light
in this point in my life.
I see.And we're friends.
I think that's...
vital for this to work.
You're beautiful, man.
Hold on, Ro. Ro, Ro.
Wow! Wow!
Look, Ro. I'm sorry.
I'm the one who's sorry.
Look, I love you, but...
As a friend.Friends. Sure.
I'll go.
No, don't go. We can talk.
Yes, Ro! Wait up!
CRISTINA: Wait! Ale! Ale!
Who wants drama? Going once,
going twice,
sold! The drama starts.

Don't worry.
I'll talk to him tomorrow.
I never meant to hurt him, trust me.
You were just being honest.
Me?Well, yeah. Right?
No, I mean... Yes, yes. I was
honest with him and everyone.
Look, Cristina,
Rodrigo is really cool.
I just can't like all men.
No. Of course not.There.
[SIGHS]
Come on.Yes.
He always does this. It's typical.
[♪♪♪]
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
Where are you going?
Me? Nowhere.
What's with the suitcases?
They're for your clothes.
Why do you mean, love?
That's crazy!Crazy?
Crazy would be to let you stay here
just like that.
Just like that.
Grab your stuff and go.
Hold on, hold on.
I slept on the sofa!
Poor thing!
Just explain what's going on.
When you and I got married,
we had an agreement, we exchanged vows
and I bought that!
I did too.
You promised me security, stability,
support.
You'll still get that.
[LAUGHING] From a recently established diner?
[IN ENGLISH] Are you kidding me?
[IN SPANISH] We've got responsibilities, Guillermo!
More than the ones we should.No!
Yes.
I won't tighten my belt for your...
adolescent dreams, got it?
Adolescent dreams?
How many times do I have to say
that this is my passion?
[LAUGHING] No, no.
Grow up and forget about you dream
of being a hippy chef
or starve to death somewhere else.
As for child support,
we'll resolve that legally.
What?
Are you threatening me?
No, love...
I'm reminding you what your role is.
Graciela...
[SIGHS]
You're nuts.
Wow! Wow, wow, wow!
Did I call you or...?
No, you didn't call me, Esther.
Is everything okay?
I had to free up space four times
after all those texts, pictures and stickers.
Are you all right?
Of course I am. I just sent that to let you know
that I was thinking of you.
[SCOFFS] I bet you were thinking
how to show off my head at your place.
Bravo!
No, trust me. I have good taste,
I wouldn't ruin my home with that.
Well, whatever.
Look, I'll save you the trouble.
I'm going to talk to Cristina,
I'm going to tell her the truth.
Hm! No, no, no, no, my love.
You're going to tell everyone the truth.
I've already got your next article's title:
"I Pretended to be Gay
to Move Into a Woman's
Apartment."
Boom! Success!
Really, Esther?
Trust me, you're worse than any horror scenario
I may come up with.
Any scenario.
I used to rule other types of fantasies.
Cristina deserves
to hear the truth,
but in person, not in public,
for the world to find out.
Don't you think?Hold on.
You're so ungrateful.
I'm giving you the chance
to fix this mess
in an incredibly poetic way.
Esther, this would crush her.
Do you think I'm that mean?
Do you really think
that I don't have a heart?
You're going to write under a pseudonym,
you're going to be able to tell your side, okay?
Ah! But write the truth, got it?
Don't write a happy ending,
because I know
all the details of this story.
[SIGHS]
Look, your secret
is safe with me, okay?
Thank you for being so generous.
Really, thank you.
[LINE RINGING]
Hi, Auntie.
Don't call me that,
you make me feel so old.
I could be your cousin.
All right. What's up, Cris?
Hey, is your mom there?
No, I'm not with her.
Who's taking you to school?
Is she okay? She hasn't picked up all morning.
Well, she's so pissed off.
Sof!
Ah! She's really mad.
Mom kicked dad out of the house
and started to cry.What?
Is your dad
taking you to school?
No, we're riding our scooters.
He had stuff to do at the restaurant.
What?
Look, Sofía,
send me your location right now.
Take care of your brother.
Cross the street carefully.Yes.
No one respects those scooters.Bye.
MIGUEL: I've got a cousin who's a surgeon,
he could give you any celebrity's face.
Look, Miguel...
Why would I want
a celebrity's face?
If no one recognizes you,
you can start over, ha-ha-ha.
He could also give Esther
Satan's face,
horns and all, you know.
Do you that'd help?
She'd be more effective. Trust me.
Don't worry. Look...
[SIGHS]
If you don't do it, you'll get fired.
If you do, Cris will find out
and kick you out.
But if you quit, I'm pretty sure
that Esther won't vouch for you
and she'll probably spill the beans to Cris,
who will kick you out. So, you'll lose your apartment,
Cris and your job.
No, no, no.
What now?You need my cousin's number.
No, why are you...?
No, it's fine. Forget about that.
I'm just trying to help.
No, no. I'm fine, thanks.No way.
Bingo!
I got it!
Esther said that you could tell
your side of the story, right?
Yes, but right now,
no version could save me.
I mean, a lie is a lie. It's that simple.
True, Pinocchio, but don't be dramatic.
Ale, this article
is your chance to come clean.
Just say that you were a real jerk,
that you can't sleep because you regret it.
That's true, Mike.You also have to write
that you didn't have to guts to tell her in person.
Dude, pour your heart out in that article.
It's free therapy.
Yes, good point. I'll give you that.
It's a good idea, but...
What if it doesn't work?
We'll call my cousin.Don't go there!
No, Miguel. I'm fine.Relax.
Guillo left.
Well, he didn't leave.
You kicked him out, didn't you?
But it still hurts, Cristina.
I thought you were crying
because your kids
had to go to school on scooter?What?
Didn't Guillermo take them?
See? He doesn't care about us at all.
Come on, they got there fine.
I checked before I came here.
They're getting good grades.
Ah!
Honey, this is what you get
for kicking him out.
Oh! My dear kids!
Can you work things out with Guillo?
Of course not.
Do you remember when we were little?
Mom used to ground us
without explaining
what we did wrong.
Mom did what she had to do,
and I did what I had to do.
Exactly, you're...
That's so smart of you.
You just say: "It has to be done,"
when in fact, you're falling asleep
and letting everything fall apart.
Okay. I've taken the first step.
I'm going to do everything possible and impossible
to go back to normal.
[PHONE VIBRATING]
Hello? What's up, Esthercita?
Hi! I'm back and I've got great news.
One of my clients is dying to work with you.
Really? Héctor Bermúdez.
Do you know him?
He's one of our biggest allies
and a mogul
that needs VIP treatment.
Of course!
He'll get all that and more.
But tell me, what does the client want?
He needs the best campaign
you have ever done.
I'm counting on you, Cris.
All right, thanks. Bye.

What's wrong?
Look at you!
You're a mess!
Agh! But your dad had the same effect on me.
You know what?
We could ask someone to beat up
the jerk that's got you like this.
Hm.Yes.
To kick his ass and all.
Idiot.A good beating, yes.
Idiot! I've said it.
Yes, a good beating. Ha-ha-ha.
No... Ah.
We can't blame him for not loving me, Mom.
He must be stupid

[PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]
MAN: Please,
I need you to send us these two.
Hi!Hello! Hi!
Go ahead, Tania.
How are you?How are you, Leonel?
Fine, fine.I'm fine too.
How are the kids?
Oh! All grown up!
They're growing up fast.
And your husband?
Actually, that's why I came.
Don't tell me he's gone off the rails.
I bet he's smoking pot,
dressing like a woman
and sleeping with someone younger.
Don't tell me, I've been there.
I know.
No, it's... It's not like that.
Come on. It is, he's an idiot.
We offered him a raise
and the little idiot said no.
No, Guillermo's not an idiot.
Of course he is.
He's got a taco stand now,
or so I've been told.
Hey! It's not a taco stand!
But this is a pitiful office
that lets its best men leave!
Be careful, Leonel.
Your rivals will find out
that he's a free agent!
Goodbye. And thank you for nothing!
Welcome, Mr. Héctor.
This is Lemon and Chili,
these are our offices.
We haven't got a big team,
but we're ready for this.
Here's the conference room.
I'm glad you're ready,
because I need a design
before noon tomorrow.
That's less than 24 hours.
I know it's short notice,
but my partners and I
trust Esther completely.
I know it won't be a problem.
Of course.
You'll get it before 8:00.Good.
Let's discuss the budget. This way.
It'd be a pitch, we'll just pay the selected agency.
What is it?
That's how this works.
I get several proposals
and I pick one.
So? Are you in? Or out?
Of course we're in.No, no...
Sir, please, go ahead.
Renata?
Show them in. Coffee?
Great. Coffee.
Are you nuts? It's a big opportunity!
What do you mean?
We'd be working for free.
Hannah, getting this client
would solve all our problems.
And we come highly recommended.
It's a weird recommendation.
If she had recommended us,
we'd already have the account.
He might go to a different agency
with our ideas.Hannah, we can get this client
because we're amazing.
What the hell?
So?We're in.
Great!
Give me that.
Will I get the designs tomorrow morning?
8:00 a.m. sharp.
Well, I think that's great.
The best of luck.
Bright and early, doll.
I'll gather the team.
CRISTINA: Guys!
This could be one of the best clients
we've ever had.
If we get this account,
we'll join the big leagues.
[ALL CHEER, CLAP]
There we go!
That's the spirt! Great!
But this is going to be tough. It'll be really demanding,
but we trust you, okay?
Rodrigo and his team
will take care of...What?
Sorry, has anyone seen him?
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
[KNOCKING]
WOMAN: It's Cristina!
[WHISPERS] Tell her I'm dead.
He says he's dead.Mom!
CRISTINA: Can you tell him
that this call will cheer him up?
Here. Take it.
Sweetheart! Hm!
Whatever it is the answer is no.
I need time to heal.
You had yours, and Hannah...
Hannah's heartless, dude.
Babe, I'm sorry,
but you weren't dating Ale,
so there's no reason to be sad.Allow me.
What do you mean? I had hope, I had a dream.
Mr. Rodrigo Alberto Flores,
please, get out of that bed
where you're probably eating pizza,
move that flabby butt
and come to the office
in the car I'm sending.There's no pizza
and my butt is not flabby!
[SIGHS] He's not coming.
Don't talk to him like that.
All right.
Enough. Too much drama.
I'm sick of love, heartache
and its consequences.
Guys, at least two designs apiece.
Get to work!
ALEJANDRO: What do you think?
I've never seen
so many synonyms of "sorry"
in the same text, bro.
I know, right?
Yes, this looks like
a universal manifest of pity.
I know that, Mike.
It's pathetic, pathetic, pathetic.
All right, hold on.
What now?
It's over.
To hell with everything.
I know what to do.
You'll see.All right. Go for it.
Cheer up.
Oh! Let's see now.
[♪♪♪]
ALEJANDRO: If you ever thought
that there are perfect people,
forget it.
You try to do the right thing...
Hi.
ALEJANDRO: But you end up lying
out of desperation, out of need...
Hello.
ALEJANDRO: Or when you're dazzled.
For me?
Yes.Welcome!
I have plenty to say
about Cristina.Do you?
ALEJANDRO: You try to fix
the mess, but you can't anymore.
Get out of here. Goodbye.
Can you see the lighter?
It's next to that.
ALEJANDRO: Life surprises you
with its twists and turns
giving you what you don't deserve.
Wow! Yeah!
Look, I don't want to date
anyone else ever again.Come here.
You're the only men I need.
ALEJANDRO: These lines might mark the end,
and justly so.
CRISTINA: Guillo crossed the line with the tequila.
ALEJANDRO: Lies are perverse illusions
that we come up with to get our way.
[♪♪♪]
But I won't regret telling this lie,
because I got to experience the best thing ever.
[BOTH LAUGH]
Unbelievable!
I know.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
HANNAH: The target isn't clear.
It's Héctor.What did he say?
He wants an update.What?
We're waiting. He has to approve
what we sent an hour ago.
That's what I said.And?
He wants an update.Ah!
No, I don't like that font.
Soy mochaccino and a relaxing tea.
Your sister brought coffee.
Am I hallucinating?
The coffee is not suspicious,
the weird happiness is.
The days of sacrifice are gone
for my family.
[IN ENGLISH] Cheers!
You've never sacrificed anything.
[IN SPANISH] I was anxious, I traveled to the future
and I saw it... It was dreadful.
Oh, no!
I'm doing what I can to avoid it.
What did you do?What I had to do.
I talked to Guillermo's stupid boss
to complain about everything.
You did what?
What?
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
You went in there, like a psycho,
to complain to your husband's ex-boss?
He's not the principal
at your kids' school!
Er... Like a psycho? No.
Yes. Like a psycho killer.
No. I went to stop him
from destroying my home.
Like you said I should.
I did not say that.
You're messed up.
You're worse than I thought.
Guillermo has to get his job back.
He's the breadwinner.
The breadwinner?Yeah.
The breadwinner?
What the hell, Graciela? This is 2020!
No, love. Grab a spear,
go out and hunt and drop that "breadwinner" nonsense.
You're a disgrace to our gender!
No, Guillo and I had an agreement:
I'd take care of the kids
and he'd work.
We were a team.
That's right. And now, as a team,
you have to figure out this new phase, together!
Yes, that's what I'm doing.
I got him a bunch of interviews,
and he's going to go,
because I refuse to give up my life
for a midlife crisis.
No and no!
Héctor.Héctor.
Héctor.
Sorry, guys.
Bye, bye, Alejandro.
Bye, Graciela. Bye.
CRISTINA: The logo on the back
could also go like this.
Hey, those shouldn't look that way.
The other way around.Hey! Hi.
Hi!
You brought breakfast! This will take ages.
How can I help? Tell me.
I could brush your teeth
while you work, to save time.
No. But if you can make
the client a bit less awful,
that'd be amazing.
I don't work miracles,
but give me his address
and I can try. Trust me.
I know you're busy
with all this,
but I need...HANNAH: Cris.
...to talk to you.Conference, five minutes.
We'll talk later, okay?
I need to get her a straitjacket.
Hey, where's Ro?He's brokenhearted.
First Mauricio, then you, then Hannah...
He doesn't get that the world needs him.
Cristina María Oviedo, help me
or we'll get sued
when I let out
the Colombian in me to deal
with that dirty old man. Hi.Later.
[♪♪♪]
Who's hungry? Have you eaten?
Hi.
Hi, love.
Ready for dinner?
What's up with you?
I brought sea bass
over a bed of lentils,
a bottle of cabernet sauvignon.

Are you all right?
Hm.
I'm doing better.
[CHUCKLES]
[SIGHS]
What's the occasion?
Your come-back to the employment arena.
Give me a break!
I knew you were up to something.
[SIGHS]
Your suit is in the car, the black one,
it's been cleaned and ironed. Your blue tie too.
Tomorrow you've got three interviews.
What?
Do you need a motivational speech
to understand that, at your age,
you have to support your family?
Isn't my family supposed
to support me too?
If you want to starve us to death, no.
I'm not...
Graciela,
this thing you see is my dream.
I'm sure that my dream
will be more profitable than my old job,
if that's the problem.Hm.
Well, I e-mailed you
the details for the interviews.
I'm making an effort,
I hope you do too.
What do you think I'm doing here?
[SIGHS]
A fool of yourself.
Er...
Rodrigo's taking his time, no?
Rodri...? Yes, yes. I think so.
He'll be here later.I see.
Well, it's fine.[CHUCKLES]
No.
RODRIGO: Ale.
Ro, er... I apologize
for dropping by like this.
Look, I'm sorry. I don't feel well,
I don't want to talk to anyone.
Come on, son, don't talk to him like that.
He came to see you. Come, sit down.
I've trimmed the plants, Mom.
Yeah?
RODRIGO: Can I get some milk?
Yes. Cold?
Yes. With sugar.All right.
Three spoons.
Coffee?
I'm fine, thanks.
All right.Thanks.
Ro...
Look, I wanted to talk to you.
I know that the other night,
things got a big confusing, right?
But you should also know
that there's no way I'm letting
that ruin our friendship.
I don't want to say: "It's not you, it's me,"
but...
I think you mistook
a fun night
for a night of passion.
That's the story of my life.
Look, Ro, here's the thing.
If I could,
I wouldn't think twice, trust me.
[♪♪♪]
Only a straight man
wouldn't want to be with my Rorro.
[LAUGHS]
No, Mrs. Leti.
Rorro's just out of my league.
Trust me.
Where was this handsome man

Héctor called seven times
and sent a bunch of messages.
HANNAH: Ah!
Yes. Hello? Héctor...
Hi.
First of all,
I apologize on behalf of everyone...
What?
CRISTINA: I understand. Sure.
No, and I mean it. Seriously,

Too bad I can no longer
write for The Turtle.
Not anymore.
Look, Esther. Thank you for everything.
I've got one more favor to ask.
Can you give me the chance
to tell Cristina the whole truth
before you publish this?
Who says I'm going to publish it?
[LAUGHS] Please, Esther!
There's no Santa Claus,
and you're not kind.
So don't worry.
Look, I did this
because it will be good for you
to face your demons.
It'll make you a better writer and person.
Wow! Wow!
Can I record that?
Can you say that again?
Please.Instead of that,
let's go out for drinks tonight.
You and I? Get real, Esther.Oh! Come on!
To put this behind us.
I swear, I promise that...
it'll stay platonic.
Hmm?
Come on! Don't be so stubborn.
Check, please.
Sure, one moment.
Thank you very much.

No, why?
Mr. Guillermo

GRACIELA: Mr. Guillermo. How are you?
Look, I'm here with Mr. Raúl,
who has kindly agreed
to do the interview over the phone.
I thought you were stuck in traffic.
He has an appointment,
but he went back to work.
He's so responsible and professional.
Well, Guillermo, we're very interested
in your work experience.
We liked your resume
and we want to hire you.
You won't find a better man than Guilli...
Mr... Mr. Guillermo.
Mr. Raúl, good afternoon.
First of all, I'm sorry.
You see...If you want,
we can send
all the required papers
and that's that.
Sure, Federica. That.Yes.
Federi... Mr. Raúl, that lady
next to you is not Federica.
She's not my secretary, but my wife
and she's behind this mess.
I apologize.
I don't want the job.
Hold on, Guillermo. We want to hire you.
My team might not be so pleased to know
that you married your secretary, but...
She's not my secretary, she's my wife!
Oh! He loves jokes!
Unbelievable, sir! He's got a nice sense of humor.
Hey, where's the cheesecake?
Young man! The cheesecake!
Graciela, for the last time:
I won't give up on my dream.
Give me a sec.
I lost the signal,
but I'll get him back.
The cheesecake, please!
Guillermo, Mr. Raúl wants to hire you,
so be serious, damn it!
Graciela Oviedo,
this is not the way to work things out.
Look, complete the interview with Raúl
like a responsible adult!
No. Graciela... Graciel...
Done!What the hell?
There. I got him back.
These phone companies are so unreliable!
They're worse than banks, am I right?
But he's right here.
All right. Hm? Go ahead, Guillermo.
Mr. Raúl, how are you?
Let me tell you a story. You're going to love it.
The woman next to you is my wife,
she's not my secretary. She kicked me out, why?
I didn't cheat on her, I don't drink,
I don't do drugs, no.
Why did she kick me out? Because I want to be a chef.
Ha! How's that?
Isn't it weird?
Do you think that's normal?
RAUÚL: Well, er...
That you were kicked out or the chef thing?
Look, Guillermo, I made an effort,
and you didn't even care.
This is over.
Unbelievable!
He's not usually this rude.
He's just very stressed,
because he's unemployed.
I wanted to get him a job, but...
Look, Miss Fede...
Graciela... Whoever you are.
I have to go. Excuse me.No...
But... If you want...
The cheesecake, damn it!
Why isn't the cheesecake here?
It's my fault.
I don't even know why we said yes.
I also
said yes, sweetie. Don't worry.
We're all to blame, team.
I could've helped and I didn't. I stayed in to cry
like a teenage boy.
Sounds like you.CRISTINA: Yes.
I don't even know when we fell asleep.
It doesn't matter, that's normal.
You were exhausted, okay?
Don't beat yourself up. It won't...
[PHONE CHIMES]
It's Esther.No way.
CRISTINA: A four-minute voice message.
Oh! A whole podcast to complain? Thank you.
ESTHER [VOICE MESSAGE]: I cannot believe it!
I mean, I vouched for you!
I mean...No, no. Turn that off.
She's typing.
She says we'd better have an explanation.
She wants to have dinner.
Do you really want to go?
I said yes. It's the least I can do.
[♪♪♪]
[SIGHS]
Oh! Enough! Cheer up, ladies.
Some juice...
Ooh!
What happened with Mr. Raúl?
Nothing. He ran away from the restaurant.
Like you from home.No.
I was kicked out. It's different.
Just because you want to cook?
This world is upside down.
I love my wife, I love my kids,
I love cooking. It's the perfect combo.
If one of those is missing, my life is pointless.
Well, you just have one of those things now.
Thank you for reminding me of that.
Dude, it's your home.
You haven't gone back
because you don't want to.
Yes, technically,
she can't kick you out.
Besides, this is
what you need to be happy.
Correct me if I'm wrong, Mike.
But, Guillo,
I think you should go there,
tell them that lovely thing
about the perfect combo
and make up.If it doesn't work,
can I use that on a girl?
Mike, don't.
But some friends...Mike, no.
[♪♪♪]
CRISTINA: We tried to handle
this big project,
but it was obviously
too much for us and...
We understand if don't want
to work with us again.
ESTHER: Look, Cris,
I've just met you,
but I feel like we're kindred spirits.
You're pretty, you're intelligent,
you're responsible.
The only difference is that I've got better taste,
more money and I'm blunt.
That was your mistake.
I mean, you should've called me
and say: "Girl, we can't do this,"
and that's that, it'd been cool.
I could've called to Héctor
to work something out.
Look, I like you,
so I'll talk to him.
No one can resist my charm.
Sorry.
Is that Ale?
It is Ale.
Yeah! I told him to come.
Do you mind? I need to talk to him.
Okay?No, no. But if you want,
I can leave.No, girl!
Help me convince him not to quit.
He quit?Yes!
ALEJANDRO:
Hi.
Hi, Cris.Hi!
How are you? This is a surprise!
I didn't know you'd be here.
Hi!
"Hi, Esther. How are you?"
Hi.
Ah!
Well, get used to it.
Because we're inseparable.[CHUCKLES]
Hey, I can't believe you didn't tell me.
What?
That you quit! You quit.Ah.
CRISTINA: Did you really quit?
Why?
Yes, it's... Cris, it's...
Trust me, it's a long story.
But I'm not going to let him go,
don't worry.
I can't let my best writer
work for the competition.
Name your price, go.
Esther, believe me,
it's not about that.
Really, it's not.
You know I can't say no to you.
How much do you want?
Come on, Esther! Please.
I've never heard you say the word "yes."
Ah...
Even though I practiced it
in front of the mirror every day...
"Yes, love!"
In case you proposed.
But you never did, right?
I guess I'm not meant to get married.
Sorry?
Does that mean that you...?
You were going to...?
No, no, Cris.Were you two together?
Cris, Cris...
Cris, Cris, Cris. It wasn't like that.
ESTHER: No.It wasn't.
I mean, we were, but...
Now I'm glad it didn't happen.
I get it now.
Sure. No, you're not my target.
I could never be with a guy I had to support...
Ah! Héctor! He read my mind!
I'll talk to him.
Look...
Any other detail
that you forgot to mention?
Anything important?
No, no. Look, Cris, trust me.
That was irrelevant.
Really?Totally irrelevant.
No. Sure, not relevant at all.
You and Esther getting married?
Irrelevant.Yes, yes.
Look, Cris, you're right.
It's very weird
that you're here with Esther
and that she's telling you...
ESTHER: I convinced him!
Thanks!
She's here.
She says thanks.
Thanks, Héctor! Thank you!
Talk to you later, Héctor. Later.
Kiss, kiss.
I should get up.
This is your place.
This little boy
has no manners, right?
I mean...
He doesn't, you're right.
Well, let's celebrate.
Look what I've ordered.
Come on! Don't look so sad!
I mean, let's celebrate
that you got a big client back
and that we're going to get
Ale to stay at The Turtle.
ALEJANDRO: Ha!
Thanks.
Well, then. Let's toast.

Have you grown up?
What would that involve?
Stop cooking?
Because I won't.
Ciela, love, I'm coming back home,
here, with you, with the kids.
Let's just enjoy
this amazing life we've got.
Did you go to the interview?
No, Graciela, and I won't.
You know that all this is for you, right?
[SCOFFS]You inspired me.
I want to enjoy what I do,
like you.
Don't I have that right?
You know what?
You have every right.
What are you doing, Graciela?
You're absolutely right,
Guillermo.
You have to fulfill your dream,
but I won't face the consequences of that.
No, sir!
Guillermo, the dreamer,
is going to explain the kids
what living here entails.
I won't!
Send.
Ah, ah!
Finally!RODRIGO: All done?
I want a drink.
I want a drink and a man,
and you need that too!
I'm not ready to meet anyone.
Ah!
Sorry! Nice to meet you, new Rodrigo.
Pleased to meet you.
Enough, dude. The old me is dead.
I used to jump
from one crush to the next,
like an idiot.
What? What did Alejandro say
that made you grow up this way?
That if he could, he'd fall for me,
but he can't.
Why would he say that?
I guess he meant that you can't demand love.
That... That you can't ask
to be loved back.
Hannah!
But you can demand a man.No, you can't!
You can't! Never!Let's just drink! Let's drink!
[♪♪♪]
[BOTH LAUGHING]You're my roomie.
I'm your... Easy, Cris.
Hey, where's Esther?
Esther?
Esther!No, no, Esther's not here.
Cristina. Hold on, it's...
I told her I have...You two
lost control of yourselves.
No, I'll call her.No, no, no, no.
What for, Cristina?
Stop it. Stop.
I know why you don't want her here.
She doesn't want to be with the runaway groom.
No, no, no, no. Hey, just to be clear.
Runaway.
Let's be very clear:
I've never, ever,
run away from anybody.
Ah! Ah!
[LAUGHS]
It's the truth.
Then she doesn't want to be
with the groom that stood her up.
No, no, no. I didn't stand her up either.
Stood up!
No, no, no, no, no.
Look, I admit...
I just...Stood up.
Esther and I... Well, yes,
we lasted longer than usual.
She thought I wanted to propose,
but... Like any normal couple,
we talked and the split was amicable.
I never got down on one knee and said:
"Esther, would you like to go steady?" None of that.
Never, never, never. No, no, no.
No.
The lesson is...
that after sex, always... Always,
choose your words carefully.
Dude! Right?
Yes, yes, yes.
Dude! I always used to say
the same thing to Eduardo.
What?
"That's it?
So quickly?"
[LAUGHING] I get it.
Listen, look at it this way,
I think he did you a favor, right?
Yes.What's your deal?
What is it? Are you gay, bi,
LGBT-T-T-T-T...
Cris, Cris, Cris, Cris. Come back.
I mean, if you're not gay,
then you're just another man
who moves in with me and lies to me.
Cristina "Victim of betrayal
by all the sexes" Oviedo!
Cris, er...
I'm not gay.
I'm not.
[♪♪♪]
Cris...
Cristina.
Did you hear me?
You're not...
