ROOM TO RENT FOR RELATIVES
OF HOSPITAL PATIENTS

- Here.
- It's 105 pesos.

- 105?
- Yes, it's already gone up five pesos.

It's not worth 105.

There you go.

- Do you have a trash can?
- No.

Good afternoon.

OUT OF ORDER

- How bad is the pain, from one to ten?
- Nine.

You need nail surgery.

Nothing serious.
A quick procedure.

I'll patch you up
but you definitely need surgery.

3,000 pesos?

It includes local anesthetic
and subsequent treatment.

Fine.

Bird, bird, bird!

Put me down!
A bird!

Hello!

I'm calling about the room.

So before we bury him,
we stroke him a little.

I'm coming!

- Mrs Mendoza?
- Tulio González?

The fee is 550 pesos.

You can't use the kitchen.

You can use the bathroom,
but don't take forever.

The closet in the room stays closed.

I don't want to hear
about your sick relative.

Any questions?

No, everything's clear.

Right there.

Excuse me.

That's it.
Your turn.

I'll get the American cheese.

Like this?

Put mayonnaise on it.

Get the ham.
I'll spread this.

Come on, put the ham here.

It's missing a corner.

Put it on top.

- Like this?
- Yes.

Double decker!

It's ready.
Eat it now!

That's it!

It's good, right?

Look.
See that apartment up there?

- That's where we'll sleep today.
- Today?

We're renting it
while Mom is in the hospital.

Cris!

Cristian!

Come on.

See the structure
that looks like a spaceship?

- Yes.
- Count the windows next to it.

One, two, three. You see?

The second one?

Look closely.
There's one with the lights off.

Mom is in the one next to it.

Do you think she can see us?

I'm sure she can!

- I have an idea.
- What is it?

Wow!
Where did you get that lamp?

- Mom got it for me.
- She did? It's really nice!

When I was your age,
your uncle Luis and I

used to play with flashlights.

- Really?
- Yes. Want to see how?

Look. Tilt it up.

We used to send signals like this
from house to house.

- Wow!
- Look.

Here!

We used to do it like this.

Send signals to Mom!

Send them to her!
Look.

Hey, Mommy!

- We should go to bed now.
- No!

Yes, my love.
Let's go.

- We have to get up early tomorrow.
- Okay.

MOMMY

Good morning.

- Good morning, Mrs Olga!
- Good morning.

Hey!

You can't pee there!

I'm almost done!

Hey, kid!

This isn't a public restroom!
Hey, kid!

WELCOME TO VALLE PHARMACY

From Tehuantepec to the world!

100% MEXICAN

I'm Cristian, nine years old.

I play Cosmic Defenders Pro.

I'm the best defender.

Excuse me, here's your medicine.

It's 809 pesos.

And without this one?

435.

Four...

- There you go.
- Thanks.

I bet the black car over there will win.

The blue one.

I'm betting on the white one.

Deal?

Ready...

steady...

No!

- No!
- I beat you!

No!

She's in bed 603.

Six, three!

January, February, March...

When's Mom's birthday?

- Sixth of March!
- Right!

Did she ask about me?

Of course!

She asked if you were
brushing your teeth.

I said you are.

You even count the strokes,
like she taught you.

Look, look, look.

Dad... I need to pee.

- What does this thing do?
- Turn it on!

- How much does it cost?
- 100 pesos.

- And what does this one do?
- Turn it on.

- How?
- Push the button.

- What button?
- On the remote.

- How much does it cost?
- 350.

- What's this?
- A speaker.

How much?

How much you got?

Two mints.

You can buy this.

Choose one.

I want the one from space.

Alright, you rascal!

This is a satellite.

- And this one?
- That's Mars.

- What about this?
- A shooting star.

Very good!

Miss?

How much?

Hey!

Good afternoon.

Look, Dad, a heart.

Show me... wow!

It's pretty.

Come on.

Let's go.

Wow!

No way!
A Cosmic Defender Pro!

Like the one at Mrs. Marcela's store.

Dad, let's play a game!

No, it's a waste of money.

Come on, Dad!
I'll break the record!

- Please, Dad!
- I said no. Come on.

Fine.

PRESIDENT ALEMÁN URBAN HOUSING PROJECT

Wait.

Hello?

No...

I can't go.
Estela hasn't been discharged yet.

Yes, it's been tough,
but the chemo seems to be working.

Geez, I'm not sure.
Look, I'll let you know, okay?

Thanks.

Hey, damn kid!
Get off!

I can't wrap my head around this.

I let you into my home,
and this is how you repay me?

- I'll pay for the child.
- Yes, you'll pay me.

And you'll leave right now.

My wife is in the hospital.

We need time to find another place.

You have until the day after tomorrow.

The whole week?

Gone by the weekend,
or I'll call the police.

Kid, you're getting the glass dirty!

It's 1,189.

- And just this one?
- 60.

Thank you.

Can you hear me?

Ship 35, ship 35!

- The signal's cutting out!
- Calling Dad!

Ship 35!

Hello, Pepe.

Hey, is the job still available?

I can't hear you.
The signal's cutting out!

How many days?

And how much per day?

I'll be there by noon.

See you there.

- Okay, Pepe!
- I can fly!

I can't hear you, Captain Cristian!

- Five pesos!
- Do you copy, Captain Cristian?

Do you copy?

- Five pesos, Dad!
- What is it?

I found five pesos!

Look, with this lever
you move from one side to the other.

And with this button you shoot
these little creatures called invaders.

- They want to kill you.
- Wow!

- You're obviously really good, huh?
- I am.

- Your turn.
- Let's see.

No, with the third button!
Use the lever!

Wait!

- Your turn.
- That was the last life.

We made a good team, right?

799.

Is it the cheapest one?

399.

Two, three... four.

Hey!

I'm almost done!

Hey, kid!

This isn't a public restroom!

Hit "Menu."

Now go to "Contacts."

Now "Enter."

Now press "Add contact."

The phone icon.

- Type in "Daddy."
- "Dad...

- ...dy."
- That's it. Press "OK".

Now the number: Nine...

seven... one.

- Zero, eight...
- Zero, eight...

zero.

Six, two...

two...

three.

Okay.

Press "OK".

Now call me.

- There it is.
- That's right. Look.

Right, let's see.

Hey there, troublemaker!

You see?

Call me if anything happens.
I'll get here fast.

Yes, Dad.

- Bye.
- Bye.

GAME OVER

- My turn.
- No, you've already played two hours.

Time to sleep.

Don't you dare
spend the money I'm leaving you

on that Cosmic thing.

Defenders Pro.

Dad, what's wrong with Mom?

Your mom is fighting
some bad cells in her body.

What are cells?

Like in that Cosmic game.

Imagine that there are invaders
inside her body.

There are some powerful defenders

fighting against the invaders.

I'm sure she'll win.

Come on, come on.

Come on, come on.

I grabbed another one.

You rascals!

Come on, come on.

- Here's your juice.
- Thanks, Dad.

- Okay, your banana.
- Thank you, Dad!

Come on!
Oh, I grabbed an apple.

You heard me.
Room, diner, diner, room.

- Room, diner, diner, room.
- That's it.

Right.

- Can I go to the hospital?
- I told you!

They won't let you in.

Room, diner, diner, room.

The money I left is for food.

Not for playing that Cosmic thing.

If the lady asks about me,
you know what to say?

Are you listening, Cristian?

What will you say if she asks?

That you're not here
but the rent is already paid.

That's right.

Give me a kiss.

- I love you.
- Me too.

- Be good.
- Yes, Dad.

Bye.

- Bye!
- Bye, Dad.

Come on!
I keep losing! Come on!

I'm bringing these sleepers to my mom,

Estela Reyes Ramírez.

- She's in bed 603.
- Kid, no! You can't come in.

Children are not allowed.
Move. Next, please!

Patient in bed 235, please.

- Your ID, please.
- Yes.

Thank you.

Who's next?

- Dad, you have the stool sample, right?
- I forgot it.

Dad, I told you not to forget the sample.

I forgot.

I reminded you before leaving, Dad.

Now I have to call Carmen.
Where's my phone?

It must be at the bank.
I told you to remember the PIN.

- That was all you had to remember.
- I forgot it.

Here.
For the stool sample.

- You just had to remember your PIN.
- I forgot it.

Here it is.

Carmen!
I don't know...

Bean soup
and chicken fajitas or something.

Okay, bye.

Come on, Dad.

Let's see if we've missed our turn.

Thanks.

Dad, I'm talking to you.

- Thanks.
- You're welcome.

Kid!

Do that once more, it goes in the trash.

Move.

Come on.

Come on.

I wasn't into them,
but one day Lupis said:

"Put some sleepers on, Isaac."

I told her, "It's slippers, not sleepers.
Besides, they're for women."

And she was, like, "If you say so, Isaac.

But without sleepers...

...you'll get bunions."

And I said, "Oh, those bunions...

I told you it's not sleepers,
it's slippers.

Besides, I don't get bunions."

Know what she said?

"Just wait and see."
And I said, "So be it."

And guess what?
I got a goddamn bunion.

What's a bunion?

You can tell me about yours
when you're older.

I have to give the sleepers to my mom.

It's slippers, not sleepers.

She's going to get a bunion.

- I'll take them to her.
- No, no!

- I have to give them to her.
- If you say so.

I don't think you can get
into that room anyway.

Wait here.

With this lamp you can face
the end of the world.

- It's for you.
- No way!

Take me to bed 603.

Not for 100 flashlights.

My mom will think we forgot about her.

- Where's your dad?
- I'm in charge.

Kids aren't allowed.

- I'll get fired if caught.
- My flashlight.

Use your peripheral vision
so you know where it's coming from.

Move in a straight line.
Straight!

Have you played Cosmic Defenders Pro?

It's pronounced dee-fenders.

If I win,
you'll help me get into the hospital.

- What if you lose?
- I'll give you my flashlight.

Alright.
But don't come crying later.

On Earth, justice prevails!

Check out the score.

There it is!
Here they come.

Take that!

Even with a bad finger!

Give me five pesos.

Good afternoon.

- She's not my mom.
- This is bed 603.

But she's not my mom.

Where's my mom?

Where's my mom?

- She wouldn't leave without me.
- Of course not.

- See you tomorrow?
- I won't work here anymore.

Where's my mom?

I'm sorry,
you'll have to wait for your dad.

- What bed is my mom in?
- Kid, you can't come in.

She was in bed 603 and now she's gone.

I can only give information
to adult relatives.

Please!

Move over!
Move over, kid. Next, please.

Next!

Can I get a stamp here?

That's it.

Here you go.
Next, please. Thank you.

- Hello.
- Sixth floor. Cardiology.

Okay, name and floor you're visiting.

Specialty department.

- You never learn.
- And you're stone-hearted.

Another stamp here!

Thanks.

I'm telling you:
if the boss sees him here,

I'm staying out of it, okay?

He just wants to know
where his mom is. Here.

I need five minutes to ask Gladys.
Cover for me.

First floor, Traumatology,
Dr Daniel Giménez.

- Your name and floor.
- Five minutes?

Yeah.

Just five minutes.

Sorry, here you go.
One moment.

- What's your mom's name?
- Estela Reyes Ramírez.

- Got it.
- Go.

- Hello.
- Hi.

- What floor?
- Third floor, bed 310.

- Your registration, please.
- Yes.

- Morning. Which floor?
- First. Dr Giménez.

Stop! We need this for our work.

Leave this here.

Please.

- Hello, which floor?
- Fifth floor, Dr Cabrera.

- May I have your documents?
- Good morning.

- Good morning. Floor?
- Fourth floor.

Bed 404.

Sign up, please.
Thank you.

- Good morning.
- Oh, thank you.

- Gynecology.
- Okay, your registration, please.

Thank you. Go ahead.

- Morning.
- Hi. Nutrition.

Okay. At the back, first floor, please.

- Good morning.
- Radiology, please.

- Bow your head!
- Okay, one moment, please.

Oh, how lovely!
Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Stamp, my love.

In the back to the right.
First floor, please.

- Good afternoon.
- Which bed is my mom in?

I can't help you.
We need an adult family member.

Which bed is my mom in?

Which bed is my mom in!

Assholes!

In the trash.

I'm not washing that.

And your dad?

He's working.

What?

He's working.

Call your dad right now
and let me talk to him.

I'm talking to you.

My phone was stolen.

Use this one.

His number was on my phone.

You don't know it?

No.

Did he tell you when he's coming back?

When he finishes work.

I don't know which bed my mom is in.

And they can only give information
to an adult.

They'll notify your dad when he comes.

Go to your room.

The rent is for the room,
not the whole house.

Do that once more and see what happens.

Can I watch TV?

No.

What's going on?

You can't be here.
Go to your room!

I have to close up now.

- Kid, we're closed.
- Just 60 more points.

You said that 30 minutes ago.

Who's next?

I'm asking about Estela Reyes,
who was in bed 603.

- Relationship?
- Friend.

Only family members.

- Her son's outside.
- Not possible.

Mrs Olga!

Azucena Soto.

I helped with your son's transfer.

My dear!

I'm sorry, Mrs Reyes was transferred.

We can't see where to.

We've been trying to locate her husband.

- I'm sorry, I can't help you.
- Don't be.

- Thanks, dear. Take care.
- Take care.

But she's still there, right?

I told you,
only your dad can get reports.

That's the hospital's policy.

Close it, please!

It was the club sandwich for sure.

- What does it say?
- Let me see.

It doesn't work.

But I can take your temperature.

What are you doing?
That's not how you do it.

That's how my mom takes mine.

You're fine.

Big fart incoming!

Cristian!

- What?
- Go get me an electrolyte drink!

What flavor?

Anything but coconut.

There's money on the table by the door!

- Alright!
- Bye. Take care.

Hey, dude!

Where were you?
I'm getting dehydrated.

I had to go to lots of places.

They only had coconut
and the elevator was broken.

I'm tired.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

I only had one life left.
It was all or nothing!

And I went all out.

The invaders swept in.
About 100 of them.

No! Like 200.

I couldn't even blink
or I'd lose everything.

All of a sudden, my eye started to itch!

If I blinked, I knew it'd all be over!

The worst thing was
this finger getting stiff!

The one that fires.

Without a trigger finger
you can't kill invaders!

What place did you come?

Third.

R.M.T.

How do you know who's in first place?

Don't just see it as a simple coin.

It's a way to get into
the guts of the machine.

It's the first step in defeating it.

Blow on it.

It's how the energy
gets into the machine.

Lift it up.

Repeat after me:

- Invaders from space.
- Invaders from space.

I honor and respect you.

As the most fearsome enemies.

- Agree to fight me.
- Agree to fight me.

Let the battle begin.

Pace yourself.

Let them go through.

You're managing your energy.

You're almost there.
The rest is a formality.

Let your mind and your fingers
become one.

If you think, you lose.

They're everywhere!

Your eyes are playing tricks.

Don't let fear take over.

- Here's to our first place.
- Our first place.

You should feel very proud.

For years no one was able
to dethrone him.

"R.M.T."

Rodrigo Mendoza Torres.

Who is he?

The number one Cosmic player.

He was a friend whom I loved very much.

And where's your friend now?

Not here anymore.

No one was able to
knock him off the top spot.

Only you.

My mom taught me how to play.

Her combat name is Estela Power.

- Here's to Estela Power!
- My mom.

To your mom.

Do you like to dance?

Cristian.

Cristian!

Get dressed.

Get dressed.

Cristian.

Let's take those slippers to your mom.

- Name for your ID?
- Olga Reyes.

- Second surname?
- Your mom's second surname?

- Ramírez.
- Olga Reyes Ramírez.

- Good morning.
- Morning.

I'm here to request a pass for a minor.

- Patient's name?
- Estela Reyes Ramírez.

Relationship between them?

I'm her son.

And your relationship to the patient?

She's my aunt.

Your ID, please.

Write down your name and phone number

in case of any emergency.

Here's your ID.

- Your pass.
- Thanks!

My mom won't get to see me looking neat.

You still look very handsome.

You can come in now.

Why don't you leave her the slippers?

Can we leave?

- We can stay a little longer.
- No, let's go.

- Who are they?
- I'm the one with the flag.

You're the one with the eye patch.

My mom's the one with the headscarf.

These are the invaders.

They're Cosmic Defenders Pro pirates
who rescued the queen.

Cris...

The pirates can't always
rescue the queen.

These can.
They're Cosmic Defenders Pro pirates.

She will always be here.

Because the people we love,

who leave...

I don't understand.

The people we love...

always stay with us.

I don't get it.

Your mom...

What?

What?

Idiot!

You're an idiot!

Cristian!

Cristian!

Cristian, stop!
