Anel, I'll have them get the car so we can leave.
I should leave that life behind.
What I had with Jose was very special.
Jose met somebody.
Seeing him with someone else hurts.
The Anel I know takes matters into her own hands.
I need your private eye skills.
You've only got eyes for Pepito.
I've got a tryout with Necaxa.
Really, sweetie?
Yeah.
I'm going to need more money before you go.
As soon as I pass the tryout and sign the contract,
we'll go to Acapulco.
You should reflect, Maria.
Your temperament isn't the most suitable for taking vows.
I'm here for whatever you need.
For Mr. Jose Jose.
Pepe's a hero, but alcohol is a demon
that ought not be trifled with.
Take it away.
Why do you say that? You speaking from experience?
Cheers, Chumo.
What'd you give me?
I told the waiter to put rum in it to liven you up.
-That's drugs, isn't it? -It's medicine.
It's dangerous, and I don't want you having regrets.
But this isn't witchcraft. It's magic.
It's all in the name of love.
How do you feel, dear?
Not good.
My heart's racing, like I've got tachycardia.
I can't settle down.
You're just tired, Pepe.
When was the last time you took a break?
Tired?
Those are amphetamines, aren't they?
How long have you been taking them?
I've got a prescription for them.
Look...
I'll throw them away if you want.
Yeah, do it.
Let's look for Chumo.
He can help us find a doctor, okay?
Let's go.
Kiki, don't forget that my methods never fail.
What if this time it doesn't work?
It will work. Relax.
Didn't we get rid of the unwanted ex?
Didn't I find a partner for my restaurant?
Don't beat yourself up over it.
I want Anel out of Pepe's life.
Maybe we can do a little something to her.
Good thing Pepe's on tour soon.
That way that whore can't see him.
I felt a stabbing pain in my heart,
like I'd been stabbed by a needle.
I was worried sick, doctor.
What's wrong with him?
Absolutely nothing.
You're just working too hard, the cure for which is rest.
Thanks very much for coming.
Chumo, please walk him out.
This way, please.
You heard the doctor.
What you need is rest...
and a little TLC.
I think it's your fault.
You be quiet.
It is, and the least you can do is stay with me
until Chiroldi stops playing hard to get
and signs that contract.
But I'm a terrible nurse.
I only play a good one on the big screen.
You'd be a big help if you stayed.
We thought the signing would happen soon,
and I can't stay longer.
I have other things to do.
I can't, Chumo.
I've got an important movie audition
that Mauricio got me.
Reconsider, Anel.
You can't leave Pepe alone.
Especially now when he needs you the most.
Wait, Chumo.
What?
Forgive me about the rum.
Look, you're very close to Pepe, and it's important to me that...
Let me tell you something.
I'm Pepe's friend and manager, but I'm not his babysitter.
So you two do whatever you want, okay?
That's not what I mean.
I want Pepe's friends to be my friends too.
Yeah.
Are you feeling alright?
I'm fine.
You should see a doctor.
Do me a favor.
Worry about Pepe and yourself.
I'll worry about me, got it?
And please, not a word of this to him?
But...
Please.
Just worry about Pepe.
Fine.
I'll be back.
You had a bit too much to drink last night, didn't you?
What do you care?
Don't you think things are moving fast with Minerva?
So what?
-It keeping you up nights? -No.
But I think giving her money so early in the relationship
isn't very normal, don't you think?
Because she's my lady.
It's so obvious you've never had a real man by your side.
Don't get like that, Gonzalo.
Believe it or not, I'm worried.
I think she could ruin your plans to play soccer.
On the contrary.
Once Necaxa signs me, she's moving here.
You can't even get your stuff together.
I'm a grown man, and I know how to treat a lady.
Not like my brother the mariachi
who traded you in for the first woman he came across.
Boys, I've got news.
What is it?
I was able to reschedule all of my appointments
except for the audition for the movie.
Thank you.
Don't worry about it.
I'll speak to Mauricio personally when I go to Mexico.
Thanks, Chumo.
I'm leaving.
-Where are you going? -I'm leaving.
Where are you going?
You haven't even touched your food.
Sit down.
Bon appétit. I have to go.
Chumo...
Know what's wrong with him?
Who knows?
He didn't eat a thing.
I'm starting to worry.
-I came as soon as you told me. -I'm glad you're here.
-Everything okay? -Yes, come here.
-I've got good news. -What?
I'm moving to Brazil.
Brazil?
Forever?
My husband was offered a job over there,
so it's a great opportunity.
That's good, but you're going to leave your life here behind?
Your friends? The café?
For now.
It's an adventure, and it's now or never.
What I need is somebody to run the café.
I think I know somebody who can help.
Eleven pesos.
Not even praying to Saint Jude would do me any good.
What do you need?
Women stuff.
Oh.
What comes next?
Chop the onion, then the peppers,
put it in the pan, fry it, then crack the egg in there
and you're done.
You're a quick learner, coz.
I didn't know nuns could whistle like that.
What about it?
Here, you've earned it.
Really?
Sorry it isn't more, but it's all I've got.
Thanks, coz.
I'll pay you back when I get used to life as a civilian.
You can pay me back by doing me a favor.
What is it?
Look, there's Chumo.
Thank you.
Where could he be going?
Anel is in Puerto Rico with Jose?
Are you sure?
It's what my sources told me.
<i> I can't believe it.</i>
<i> Do whatever you must,</i> <i> but I want info on that whore.</i>
Hello?
<i> Hello.</i>
Mr. Jose Sosa's room, please.
Mr. Sosa just left. Care to leave a message?
With whom?
You'll have to excuse me, but I'm looking for my sister.
It's a family emergency.
She's an attractive redhead that ought to be with him.
Oh, yes. Mr. Sosa's girlfriend.
Yes, like I said, they just left.
If you'd like to leave your information,
we'll give her the message.
You're suggesting that I leave him the workshop?
Why not?
Maybe what Gonzalo needs to grow up
is to have his own space
and for you to stop being so overprotective,
which I say with nothing but respect.
He has his own space: His bedroom.
And as far as being overprotective,
he was always a sickly boy.
Tell me something.
Did he ask you to speak to me?
Yes, and I agreed to it because I feel he's right.
He's been very conscientious lately.
He even lent me money.
Oh, sweetie, I haven't paid you a thing since you got here!
No, no, I don't want you to. Letting me live here is plenty.
-But how will you make a living? -With God's help.
So... about leaving the workshop to Gonzalo?
Where'd they find all those guys?
Off a construction site it looks like.
Did they ask their foreman for permission?
Look at this one. What a weakling.
What's your problem?
What?
My dad spoke to Coach Reina.
We'll play with this sorry team for a couple of years
before moving on to the national team.
Just imagine, Lopez Garza on the Mexican national team
playing in Germany in '74.
Let's go!
Let's see if you can back up that big game you talk.
Who gave you permission to talk to me?
You were informed correctly.
Thank you.
This is the best talent agency in the business.
What are you looking for?
A pretty brunette or redhead between 20 and 24 years old.
You want someone young.
These are my best girls.
Some of them even studied in Bellas Artes.
You don't say!
What company did you say you represent?
No, I haven't told you.
So you're not a producer?
Let's just say a friend of a friend
referred me to your agency.
I'm looking for actresses with certain...
special abilities.
All of my girls are very talented.
Ms. Valles, I think we both know what I'm referring to.
Here.
And there's much more where that came from.
Money is no object.
I understand.
You want a specific list.
You should've said so sooner.
You could make good money doing what you know, Maria.
Cooking and administrating.
Are you talking about that café where a bunch of Bohemians
get together to listen to rock and roll?
No way.
Far too cosmopolitan and liberal for me.
It's a very good opportunity, and you need the money.
Think about it.
No, of course I won't.
Don't you see it?
This is your mission.
That place needs your prayers!
Yes.
You're absolutely right, Margarita.
Those hippies need your guidance.
This is our chance. Don't you forget it!
Many were left on the sidelines.
All of you here on this field are the fortunate ones,
and it's up to you to make your dreams a reality!
Everybody knows we've got a stacked roster.
In fact, our bench would beat several teams!
I want to see you playing the game of your life!
Don't forget, this is your chance!
Come on, boys!
Pass it.
Pass it to me! I'm open!
I'm open!
I'm open!
Again?
Pass it to me, damn it!
That's the second time you did that.
I recognize some of them from their brief appearances on TV
and in movies.
Yes, some of them are actresses too.
As you know, it's not an easy business,
and sometimes it could be years before they get
their first big break.
So they find other ways to supplement their income
with other kinds of gigs.
Do you follow?
Like sleeping with businessmen or politicians.
Nothing vulgar like that.
This is a first-class escort service.
These girls aren't like the poor women
hanging out on street corners.
You can take these to Europe or on a business trip
or to dinner at the best restaurant in the city.
Of course.
Although, for safety reasons,
I'd like references from some of those clients.
That's not going to happen. That's confidential.
I can't give you any of my sponsors' references.
That's what you call them?
Sponsors?
Let me make you an offer.
