All language subtitles for Betty.En.NY.S01E039_English

I'd like to thank everyone
whose talent and creativity

made this night a success,

especially a woman
who has been essential,

the love of my life,
Marcela Valencia.

Tell me the truth, Betty.
Did you fall for Mr. Armando?

I respect him very much,

and I can't believe
you're saying this.

I'm the biggest idiot
that ever lived.

Is that Nicolas, the guy running all
of BAR's finances and investments,

just her friend
or something more?

Are you and that Nicolas
really just friends?

He's been my best friend
since high school.

Is it true you're madly in love
with Mr. Armando?

Yes, I'm in love.

But not with Mr. Armando.

With Nicolas.

We recently became
boyfriend and girlfriend.

I trust Betty
to return the company to me.

I don't, especially now
that her boyfriend

is in charge of finances.

I told you,
they're just friends!

Congratulations, Ms. Rincon.

You are the new owner of V&M.

Betty, these flowers
just arrived for you

from your boyfriend, Nicolas.

Nicolas is with Beatriz
for her money, for your money.

You can't prove that.

I will.

Betty's boyfriend's name is Nicolas.

He's pretty rich.

Is that so?

Beatriz has many responsibilities.

Plus, she's got a social life.

She's got a boyfriend, don't you?

Answer us.
Is he your boyfriend or not?

Betty told my mother
that she didn't have a boyfriend.

Ask Betty to show you a report
on BAR's finances.

To make sure
everything is hunky-dory.

I need a complete report on BAR.

So your boss is questioning
my integrity.

No, but he has the right
to look out for his interests.

Just what I needed.

They're about to meet
the real Nicolas Ramos.

-Betty.
-Hmm?

Is everything alright?

Yes, why?

Because it doesn't seem like
my asking for a report on BAR

is inconveniencing you.

No, not at all.

This is my job
and you're the boss.

It's your money, and you have
every right to ask.

Don't worry, as soon as Nicolas
sends it, I'll bring it to you.

Now if you don't mind,
I have a lot to do.

Excuse me.

Can you believe that harpy Jenny?

Rubbing Sofia's divorce
in her face!

I'm glad they put her in her place.

Yes.

-Hi, girls.
-Hi.

What's up?
Who are we talking about?

Jenny.

My boss gave her quite the scolding
for messing with Sofia.

For real?

Ms. Marcela defended Sofia?

Know what?

We've got to keep an eye on her.

Sofia probably had an awful night.

Poor thing.

Sofia.

Hi there!

How's it going, squad?

Hi, Sofi.

How are you this morning?

Me? Fine.

How about you?

I, for one, am famished.

I'm in the mood for donuts
and hot chocolate.

Anyone else want?

Anyone? No one?

No, thank you.

Your loss.

Our loss?

She seems fine to me.
Not at all like you said.

Poor thing is in denial.

I think the pain transformed her.

Something's not right.

There's something fishy going on.

No, Patricia Fernandez,
I won't lend you another dollar!

No!

Please.

Marce, I now owe five months
of association fees.

What?

I loaned you money
when you only owed four months.

Yeah, but the money got spent
when I thought I was pregnant.

I spent a lot, Marcela!

On vitamins, minerals,
folic acid, diapers...

You have no idea the fortune
I spent on diapers.

You don't know this,

but kids cost you money
before they're even born.

Know what I think?

That you should find
a realistic solution to your situation.

You earn a good living here,
but you insist

on living someplace very costly.

Hold on.

First, you send me to shop
at Mogollon's Market,

and now you want me
to move to the slums?

What's wrong with you?
I'm your best friend!

Exactly!

I want you to get your head out
of the clouds.

Forget about finding
a millionaire to fix your life.

That'll never happen.

It will, Marcela!

Look at me.

All of this has to lead to
a family of noble ancestry.

Hi.

Ms. Patricia Fernandez,

it's Wilson, commander-in-chief
and head of security

of this grand building.

Why are you calling me, Waldo?

Who gave you my phone number?
You're a stalker.

I got your number
from Human Resources,

and I'm calling because
your car's being towed.

You parked in a no parking zone
and facing the wrong direction.

What?

Oh no. No, no.

Wilson, darling, I'm on my way.

Please don't let them take it.

It's your job to take care of it.

I'll explain.

I had to park there
because of an emergency.

My mother found my sister
with her boyfriend

and almost killed them.

Okay, no.

We're cool, right?
We're fellow countrymen.

How much do I have to bribe you
to not tow my car?

Guess what, blondie,

you'll have to go to the impound lot,

pay the fine...

What?

and then you'll get your car.

To the lot? Are you crazy?

They're going to ruin it.
I'm talking to you!

I'll have your job for this!

You don't know who I am,

but I'm friends
with the mayor's neighbor's cousin!

Wilson, do something.
That's why you're here.

-Don't take it.
-Don't take it?

-He didn't listen to me.
-My car!

So?

What?

I told you nothing happened.

I don't believe you.

You saw Efrain last night
and things happened.

Yes or no?

You really are too much.

It's a little early for you

to start with your nonsense.

Why do you look the same
as you did

when you'd go
on vacation together?

You showed up today
smiling from ear to ear,

you've got red lipstick on,

and you're dressed like
you're ready to get plowed by a bull.

Oh my!

You don't need to be a detective
to figure out

that something happened
last night.

Did you bump uglies?

Make the beast with two backs?

No way.

You're something else.

What?

-I'll tell you the truth.
-What's up?

I put these clothes on
so that that snake

will stop making fun of me.

I got dressed up so that Efrain
and that idiot

don't notice my sadness

because while I am very sad,
it's deep, deep down,

and nobody has the right
to mock me.

What's more, with everything
going on with me,

which you know
better than anyone,

do you think I'd be in the mood

to do the horizontal mambo
with anyone?

To take a trip to Poundtown?

No, way. Not at all.

Enough!

Okay, fine.

Yes, a woman gave me
this hickey, so what?

I knew you were shameless.

So, do I know the guy?

No, you don't know her.
She's not from here.

I'd like to meet her.
We can all double date.

Maybe she and Jenny
can be friends.

No, that's not going to happen.

She's very shy
and doesn't like big groups.

She's not even on Facebook
and she only comes to New York

to see me.

You paid her?

How dare you?

She's a very respectable woman, okay?

Fine, don't get offended.
You were with a saint.

Saint Dracula.

Look at what she did to you.

Did it hurt?

Okay, but seriously,
I need a huge favor.

For real.

Help me out with Sofia.

Nope. Not Sofia. No way.

But I haven't even asked
for the favor yet.

The answer is no
to whatever you ask.

I don't want to be involved
in your marital problems.

Please understand.

I can't go near her.

I just want to make sure
she signs the divorce papers.

She said she would this morning,
but she was acting very weird.

Plus, she values you.

She thinks you're smart
and all that.

She said that?

That and more.
She's got you on a pedestal.

Did you know she once told me
she thought you were gay?

But by the looks of it,
you're into the ladies.

Glad she doesn't
think that anymore.

Huh?

Uh, yeah, I'll help you.

What do you want me
to tell Sofia?

That we sort all this out
and get divorced

without fighting about it.

-Okay, I'll help you.
-Yeah?

So long as you don't take advantage
of Sofia or the kids

because then you'll have me
as an enemy.

Yeah, yeah, that's not going to happen.

Call her and tell her
to come to the office

when she gets out of work.

I'll help you up, Ms. Patricia.

Come here so I can pick you up.

Take your hands off me,
you incompetent loser!

You let them take my car!

Okay, okay.

No, Wilson, don't leave me here.

My car. My baby.

How much is this fine?

I don't have the money
to pay it.

What the hell do you want now?

Aren't you tired of ruining my life?

Now you're going to mess with me
every hour every morning?

Uh, Sofia, it's me, Charly.

Charly?

This isn't your cell phone.

Yes, it's Efrain's.

Sofia, we need to talk.

About what?

About what happened last night
or what happened even later?

Efrain's right in front of me.

He asked me to call you to offer you
my unconditional support

and I'd like for you to come here
this afternoon. Can you?

Yes, I'll head there
when I get out of work.

Okay. See you then.

She's going to come.

Yes?

Nothing, you just seemed
very chipper.

Inesita.

He's not here. Come.

Hugo took the day off to go
to Martha's Vineyard with Fabio.

Thank you so much for the suit.

Thanks a lot.

I'll pay for the dry cleaning.

Don't worry about it.

How did it go with the Mendozas?

Fine.
At least I didn't spoil it.

They're very kind and very decent.

Yes, I've known them many years
and hold them in high regard.

They've always been
very sweet to us.

So what did you talk about?

Nothing.

What did you talk about?

Everything, especially Armando
and Marcela's engagement.

Apparently, Mrs. Margarita
wants them to marry

as soon as possible
so she can have grandchildren.

Ms. Marcela's in-laws
sure do seem to love her, right?

Of course,
and why wouldn't they?

They saw her grow up.

Marcela was the hardest hit
of all the Valencias

when their parents died.
She really suffered.

And Margarita is very close to her.

I can tell.

Do you think Mr. Armando
and Ms. Marcela...

...are really in love?

I don't know, but yesterday
I got the impression

that it was one of those
arranged marriages.

I don't know.

No, I doubt the Mendozas are forcing
Armando to marry Marcela.

In spite of how shameless
he can be,

I believe that he
truly loves Marcela,

and she's always been crazy
about him. So no.

They're going to get married
for love,

and with all the pomp and circumstance
they can muster. Look.

Look at this.

Huguito's knocking it out
of the park with this.

Isn't it a gorgeous dress?

Yes.

Marcela will look like a princess in it.

We have to do something different
for the next collection.

What are you thinking?

Mr. Armando Mendoza!

Hello. Nice to meet you.

I heard you wanted to talk to me,
so here I am.

Who are you?

Nice to meet you.

I'm Nicolas Ramos,
VP of Finance for BAR Fashion.

Thank you very much.

Mr. Armando, I'm here
because I spoke to Betty

and she said you wanted
a report on BAR

and I thought it'd be a good idea
to personally bring it in,

and well, here I am.

This is Ricardo Calderon,
VP of Commerce and V&M shareholder.

Nice to meet you, sir.

Nice to meet you, Nicolas.

I've heard a lot about you,
and let me tell you,

you're doing a great job with BAR.

Get out of here!

It's a shame not everyone thinks
the same as you.

Isn't that right, Mr. Armando?

If you look at the report,
you'll see all of BAR's growth

as well as the debts
we've paid off.

Yes, I can see that.

We do have some liability,
of course,

but that's thanks to the loans
BAR has made to V&M.

He is aware
of the financial problems, right?

Yes, Ricardo's aware of everything.

Then sit down so we can talk
without all the mystery.

Everything that's happening
is because of the loan

that BAR made to V&M.

I think this report and
BAR's great performance

calls for a celebration.
How about a drink?

No, I don't want any doubts
about my work.

I'm a serious person.

There's no doubt at all.
Quite the opposite.

It's normal for a company
to ask for a report, right?

Yeah, right.

I'm really happy
you came all the way here

so we could formally meet
in person.

No kidding? That's great.

Pour more.

Nice computer.

Thank you.

I want one like that.
Mine's old.

Cheers.

I have a question.
Do you work from Betty's house?

Yes, from her father's office.

The office...

I was going to say
it resembled this one, but no.

It's cool because
we're saving money.

We don't pay rent,
electricity, or gas.

And when it gets dirty...

Look, this is dusty.
You should speak to custodial services.

Nicolas, I've never seen
a company perform like BAR has

in such a short a time period.

It's really incredible.

You're going to make me blush, Ricardo.

And I'm just getting started.

If you give me a little more time

and stop forcing BAR
to take out loans,

I believe the sky's the limit.

I'll drink to that. Cheers.

Damn!

Woo!

-You want another?
-What'd you think?

It burned my throat.
What is that?

Damn.

Are you trying to get me drunk?

You'd better not be trying
to take advantage of me.

Nice fall! I'm glad.

I hope she had a nice trip.

I didn't know snakes could fly.

And on top of that

the boss gave her one heck
of a scolding.

That's what she gets
for being a bad person.

The cherry on top is the fine
she has to pay for parking illegally.

Not that it's that expensive,
but she's always so broke.

I wonder where she'll get
the money from.

Don't you know that
she's the Princess of Manhattan?

Plus, she knows the mayor's
neighbor's cousin

or something like that,
didn't you hear?

That video's a sure trending topic
if it ever gets on social media.

Yeah, for sure.

-Should I play it again?
-Yes.

Look at when she...

We can all rest easy
after this report.

The investments are solid,
the financial strategy is incredible.

Cheers.

Cheers.

I can assure you that BAR's
in better financial shape than V&M is.

Nicolas, where did a person
with your abilities work before?

Well, Mr. Ricardo,
I used to work as a salesperson

at an electronics store.

What?

A salesperson with your résumé?

It's not easy for a regular Joe
like me to land a job

in the business sector.

But what would wealthy people
like you know about that

with your well-to-do names.
Mendoza. Calderon.

Way to go!

Betty was smart to hire you.

Cheers.

He's running low.
Pour him another.

-Want another?
-Of course.

There.

Drink another. Cheers.

Cheers.

Betty is a terrific person.

She's loyal to her friends and family,
which I think you know.

-Nicolas.
-What's up?

This stuff's strong.

Are you and Betty
more than friends?

Whoa, hold on there.

Are you kidding me?

I thought I was coming here
to deliver a report on the company

not to be interviewed
about my personal life.

Relax, it was just a question.

We didn't mean
to make you uncomfortable.

We just thought it was weird
that you sent her flowers.

Oh, I get it.

What's so bad
about sending her flowers?

What's so bad about it?

Can't I send flowers to my friend Betty?

You know what?

I'm outta here.

Bye.

I'm leaving.

Bye, everyone!

Son of a...!

Damn.

Nicolas, what are you doing here?

Betty, where were you?

I came to deliver the report
on BAR to Ricardo and Armando.

-You smell like booze.
-Me?

You've been drinking.

I laughed so much.

When the tow truck driver
tried to give her the ticket...

Hey, was that Betty?

Who was she with?

I didn't see.

Anyway, where were we?

Mrs. Hell in Heels has no wheels!

Yeah, double pepperoni
and hold the onion.

Thank you.

Come on, Nico.

Wait, Betty.

Mind introducing me
to Patricia Fernandez?

I feel like I'm in
the right state of mind to meet her.

Bastards!

Betty, I feel like
I'm floating on air.

That's great.

-Is that you, Patricia?
-No!

Need help, Betty?

No, everything's fine.
You didn't see anything.

-Is that you, Patricia?
-You didn't see anything.

I see Patricias all around me.

But I did see something.

Told you, bro,
and you refuse to believe me.

You still have doubts?

Nicolas Ramos is a very dangerous man.

Yes, but everything
in this report is good.

You're going to believe a guy

that up until two months ago
was selling TVs?

Those numbers could be fake.

Didn't we do the same thing?

This financial report is real.

That's why BAR is able
to take out loans.

Nicolas turned out to be
a good stockbroker.

Yeah? Are you sure it's him?

What if Betty's behind all this?

We know she's smart, right?

She could be doing all the work,
and he's just a figurehead.

You think he's getting instructions
from her through his earpiece?

No, you saw him. He's a geek.

Yes, a geek not worth a damn.

He's a freeloader.
Didn't you hear him?

"My relationship with Betty..."

"She's a very interesting woman."

What does that mean, bro?

Nicolas doesn't just have
his hands on Betty,

but on our millions too.

No. You're right.

This is very serious.

But I don't think Betty
would be careless enough

to favor a friend like that.

Boyfriend, Armando, boyfriend.

Get that through your head.

You saw how he strolled in here,
like he owned V&M.

Haven't you wondered
how he got in?

How?

Betty obviously helped him get inside.

You know full well that a woman in love
is capable of anything.

Nicolas, you shouldn't have come.

You can't just show up
at V&M like that.

Ricardo and Armando
were questioning me.

That's why I personally delivered
a financial report on BAR to them.

That's all.

I can't believe it.

You've been drinking, haven't you?
You're drunk!

I can't believe you're drinking,
especially this early.

But it's not my fault.
It was their bottle.

They kept pouring me drinks

and I even think they wanted
to do something to me.

Poor baby.
You could've said no.

Don't you know how to say "no"?

What did you tell them?

The truth.

That BAR is doing well
and that I love you

and will defend you from anybody,

my little Frida Kahlo.

It's not funny, Nicolas!

You've caused a serious,
serious problem for me.

Moi?

Nein, nein, nein.

In English, Spanish, and German,
it's your fault.

You've given Armando your soul

and compromised
your ethics for him.

But you're so crazy about him
that you haven't noticed.

Of course!

That's not true!

Plus, we agreed we'd stay out
of each other's private lives

because they're private,
and you're not respecting the deal.

You know what, Betty?

It hurts me to see everyone
running over my best friend.

But okay.

Fine.

Ingrate.

You're just like them,

just like these Manhattan millionaires.

You don't appreciate
all the nice things I do for you

and what I feel for you.

Then don't do it anymore!
I don't want you to anymore!

Fine, Betty.

From now on,
there's no more Mr. Nice Nico.

No.

One, two, I'm leaving.

I went the wrong way. Bye.

He thinks he's so powerful
because he manages BAR's money,

but he's a total loser, bro.

He can't hold his liquor
and he doesn't have a clue.

I have to handle this delicately

because Nicolas
is very close to Betty.

You're BAR's real owner, Armando.

That idiot can go back
to selling computers and TVs,

don't you think?

Betty.

Hello.

Was Nicolas here?

Yes.
He delivered the report.

Your friend is very nice.

Yes.

Betty, could I please speak with you
in your office for a moment?

Excuse me.

The report Nicolas gave us
is very good.

Very good.

But I don't think we'll be
needing his services any longer.

What?

Yes, I think it's not good
for someone so close to you

to know so much about V&M.

You understand, don't you?

Mr. Armando,
are you asking me to fire Nicolas?

Uh-huh. Exactly.

From this point on,
Nicolas no longer works for BAR.

No.

I'm not going to do
what you're asking.

I will not fire Nicolas.

Did I hear that correctly?
You're not going to do it?

Yes, you heard correctly.

Nicolas is my best friend.

I trust him completely.

Plus, you can't deny he's done
an excellent job with BAR.

Yes, yes, of course he has,
but you're a very smart woman,

and I think you can handle
both companies.

If you like, we can give him
a little extra money

using BAR's finances.
I'll take care of it.

It's not about money.

I understand you want to
help your friend out.

Help my friend out?

Uh-huh.

No.

He's the one helping us.

Thanks to his strategy,
he's positioned BAR on the market.

All our earnings we owe to him.

Yes, but the thing is,
Nicolas is a stranger to me.

You understand that, don't you?

But please understand me.

Nicolas is essential.
We're a team.

I need Nicolas.

Without him,
I can't continue here.

This is what I was referring to,
Patricia. This!

How could you park in the middle
of the road as if you owned it?

Do you have money
to pay this fine?

Obviously not!

Now you really can't refuse
to lend me the money

or else my poor baby is going to be
all alone in that lot

without his mommy.

It's going to get so dirty.

I'm going to give you the money
to get it out,

but on one condition.

As soon as you get it out,
you sell it immediately, okay?

No way!

I'd rather sell my kidneys
on the black market.

Stop talking nonsense.

I'll give you the money,
you pay your association fees

and then pay me back
everything you owe.

Everybody's happy.

I mean, you don't want your baby
remaining in that lot.

Who are you, Marce?

You've changed so much.

You're made of stone now.

Be more realistic!

Stop coming up
with all these schemes!

See?
See how she defends him?

She's a woman in love, bro.

-Get it through your head.
-So what if she were?

Besides the fact
that she lied to me,

she has every right to fall in love
with whoever she wants.

Not when the entire company's
capital is at risk.

Don't you get it?

What's the only reason a man
would be with someone so ugly?

Money.

Nicolas is with her for BAR's money.

If we don't do anything,
she'll take V&M from us too.

-We'll be out on the street.
-Alright, I've heard enough.

Go be productive
and let me work.

Oh, you've heard enough?

Okay.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Wilson!

Wilson, my dear.

You're aware of the tragedy
that's befallen me.

Please help me.

Lend me money to pay the fine.
I'll pay you back.

Oh, how convenient.
Now you know my name.

That's a lot of money for me.

That's like a new car lease for me.

You're going to abandon me?

I regret to inform you that I am.

I thought you were different,
but you're just like the rest, Waldo.

-You're a good for nothing.
-It's Wilson!

Oh, Giovas, Giovas, Giovas!

My adorable handyman.

Hey, I need a favor.

I know this sounds weird,

but you know I never ask you
for anything.

Will you lend me a little cash?

I promise I'll pay you back
with interest.

Nothing would bring me
more pleasure, my elegant lady,

but all my liquidity is set aside
so I could buy a used car.

-Giovas!
-What's going on?

-What big arms you have.
-I mean, just look at me.

Do you lift weights?

Not really, but since I work
so much, I keep fit.

I have a confession to make,
but please don't judge me.

I've always wanted to be
with a man like you.

Big and strong with thick arms

that can hug me.

Will you hug me?

-You want a squeeze?
-Uh-huh.

Hold on.

Like that?

-A little harder.
-A little harder?

Like that.

Yeah! Oh my God!

Oh, Giovas, you rascal.

Amazing, isn't it?

Where were we?

You were about to give me
your account number

so I could lend you some money.

I know.

What's this?

No, that's too small.

This is missing a piece.

Why can't I find anything
in my size?

Tiger print?

Devil-red.
This is the one.

Hey, where's Sofia?
Why isn't she with us?

I don't know.

She's been like this since yesterday,
the poor thing.

I should perform some Reiki healing
and align her chakras.

What you've got to do
is align her jaw.

Who?

That potato face Jenny.

Oh!

How mean.

Hey!

Why don't we go partying?

There's nothing a good party can't fix.

Don't start, Aura Maria.

Partying, let alone alcohol,
gets you nowhere.

Only time can heal Sofia.

There's something more.

I think she's hiding something from us.

Betty, why are you so quiet?

You haven't said anything
all lunch.

Are you still upset with me

because of the bouquet
you received from your boyfriend?

-Bertha.
-Yes?

I asked you not to talk about that.

-I know.
-Not here.

Leave her alone, girls.

If Betty doesn't want to discuss
her private life at work,

then don't.

But only Bertha's doing it.

Way to throw me
under the bus, Sandra.

You're going to fall and hurt yourself

and then complain that you
have to buy medication.

It's just a short circuit.

I should have fixed this before
but I kept putting it off.

Hand me the pliers.

Here you go.

Mr. Deme.

Mrs. Juli.

How are you?
I'll take over.

Here, dealing with this man
that decided to fix a light bulb.

I'll hold this.

Demetrio, please call an electrician.

As if we had money
to waste on nonsense.

This is nothing major.
It wouldn't be worth it.

No, it's not worth it.

We're born on this giant rock
only to suffer, aren't we?

Have you been drinking, Nicolas?

No!

Of course you have.
I can tell.

No, I'm just wearing
a strong aftershave.

Smell me.
I buy it by the liter.

Alright, alright.
Aren't you a fancy boy?

Come on and help me.

Pass me the electrical tape.

Let's see.

That one right there.

Hold on.

Thank you.

Should I come up?

Yes, carefully. Don't shake it.

Hold on.

I've got you.

Don't grab the leg!

Thank you.

Oh my goodness.

-Look.
-What?

Today's the last day to meet
our obligations with the bank.

Do we have enough cash flow
to cover the overdraft charges?

-No.
-No?

No, we need to take out
another loan to pay our debts.

But don't worry.

I'll request an appointment
with the bank manager.

Great. We'll go together.
Go get ready so we can go.

Yes, sir.

Shut up already!

You sound like a bunch
of neighing mares.

You're hurting my ears.

Oh, Patty, the only horse face
here is you.

Why are you even here, receptionist?

Go back over there,
you big-bootied stripper.

Know what?

You've given me an amazing idea.

I'm going to check for an email
that I've been dying to receive.

Here she goes.

My car!

Who did it?

Who did what, darling?

Did you have a nice trip?

That feels so good.
What a relief.

Feeling better?

I wasn't feeling bad.

-No?
-No.

I know that, but you seem
a little tense and stressed out.

Right here.

-Here?
-Yes.

You have no reason to be.

The board meeting was a success
and so was the fashion show.

Honey, is something
going on that I don't know?

What do you mean?

Not at all.

What about last night?

What?

You had a nightmare about Beatriz.

It was nothing.

-Armando.
-What?

You were very worked up
in the dream,

and you were telling Beatriz
about something she couldn't do.

-What was that nightmare about?
-I don't know.

Probably nothing important.
Office stuff.

She's been stressed out lately.

Oh, and can't you get Beatriz
out of your head lately?

It's the second dream
you've had of her.

What?

Yes.

-Let me tell you something.
-Yes?

You have to learn to separate
your work from your free time.

Otherwise neither of us
will have a life.

Yes.

-That's no kind of life for us.
-No.

You're right.

-Do you promise?
-Yes, I promise.

All set.

I think it's done.

Just turn it on a little
to make sure everything's fine.

Let's see.

Oh my God!

I killed him!

Hi, Mom. How are you?

Oh, honey.
Nicolas had an accident.

What happened to him?

He got electrocuted
and fell off a ladder.

We are taking him
to the hospital.

Which one?

Okay, I'm on my way.

Ready to go to the bank, Betty?

I can't.

What happened?

Nicolas is in the hospital.

-What about the bank?
-Nicolas is more important!

Fine, I'll take you.

There they are.

Mom, Dad, what happened?

It was my fault.
I killed him.

Nicolas is dead?

No, no. Heaven forbid.

But he did hit his head really hard.

And you calm down
before you have a stroke.

Even though the kid
is intense, annoying,

and never stops eating, I...

I see him like a son.

Relax, Dad.

I'll go talk to the doctor
and find out how he's doing.

Relax.

-I'll wait here.
-Okay.

You'll never believe
what happened to me.

It was ugly. It still is.

Be careful, though.

After what happened
I now have electric superpowers.

I'm glad you're okay, Nico.

I got really scared
when I found out what happened.

Don't worry. Everything's fine.

It was just a shock,
but I'm used to it.

Things always happened to me
in elementary school.

I'll never forget the time
you climbed a tree to save that cat.

Remember the bruise I got
when I fell?

I was calling him,
"Kitty, kitty, kitty."

But then he attacked me!

He scratched me up good.

Do you think we should notify
Nicolas' grandmother?

No, let's wait.

That woman's been
at death's door for a decade.

Let's not trouble her.

You're right.

But if we don't notify her,
how will we pay the hospital bill?

Nico doesn't have insurance,

and this will cost
an arm and a leg.

Plus, I'm the one that signed
to have him admitted.

If that's the case,
maybe we should tell her.

Don't worry about that.

Nicolas is my employee.
I'll cover the bills.

God bless you, sir.
Thanks very much.

It's the least I can do.

I'm going to see if Betty
managed to speak to the doctors.

Yes, go ahead.

He's got such a big heart.

For God's sake, woman.
Don't be so naïve.

He's avoiding a lawsuit.

Nicolas suffered a workplace injury.

It was in our living room.

The living room in which BAR
also operates out of.

Hey, now that I think about it,

I'm an employee
of the company too.

I've been wanting a check-up
for a long time.

Maybe I'll just get it here.

I don't believe you, Demetrio.

You don't believe me?
What about my pain here?

Doctor!

Where are you going?

It hurts when I touch here!

-Hey.
-Yeah?

I'm sorry about
all the bad things I said.

You know I don't mean it.

I love you. More than a friend.

Oh dang, Betty.
What do you mean?

Don't be dumb.

Like a brother.

Oh!

My blood pressure
was dropping again.

Oh, Betty, I'm going to have
to electrocute myself more often

so you can talk nice to me.

-Love you.
-Love you too.
