All language subtitles for Betty.En.NY.S01E005_English

This would be your office.
It's beautiful, isn't it?

Look, you have a view of Manhattan.

Yeah... Why are you offering me this?

You know I work for Mr. Armando.

I do, but I also know that
he doesn't know your true value.

What you did today in that meeting

isn't something secretaries do.

You'd start at 200,000,

but you could go up to 500,000
if you worked hard.

You'd also have two annual bonuses

and medical insurance
for you and your family.

What do you think?

I think it's too much
for an entry-level position.

It's not too much if you're
to be my right-hand woman...

What do you say?

Betty, where the hell are you?

-Everything all right?
-Yeah.

Let's go.

Mr. Valencia, I appreciate the offer,

but I like my job.

Besides, I still don't understand
why you're making me this offer.

I don't want you to waste your time
with someone as incompetent as Armando,

who can't tell that you're
more than a secretary.

I'm sorry, sir,
but I don't think any job is degrading.

Maybe you think
a secretary's job is meaningless,

but I think the work I do is important.

Are you declining my offer?

I thought you were a smart woman,

but you're stupid to reject this offer.

I'm not stupid.
That's why I'm turning it down.

I can tell you're not interested in me.

You just want to sabotage Mr. Armando.

I have to decline. Excuse me.

Beatriz.

You've just missed out
on the opportunity of a lifetime.

We both know Armando
isn't fit for that job.

He will crash and burn,
and I'll make sure you do, too.

See you tomorrow, mariachi.

-Bye, baby.
-Bye, Smurf.

-Hey, hey!
-Bye.

See you.

So, would you mind if a versatile vocalist

walked you to your humble abode?

You're so poetic.

No, thanks. I'm going home.

That's not a problem.
This mariachi has GPS.

Where to, babe?

I can go on my own. Bye.

Wait...

Bye. I'm in a hurry.

I wish I could sing to you
every day when you wake up.

My beautiful dames...

-Look. Look!
-It's Efrain.

Relax. Play it cool.
Answer, but act natural.

Maybe he wants to get back together.
Things might go back to normal.

Hello.

Hi, Efrain.

What?

Bertha...

-He's moving out.
-What?

He's leaving me forever!

Oh, sweetie!

-You said no?
-I did, Nicolas!

That man just wants to hurt Mr. Armando.

Besides, he treats people terribly.

-I can't imagine him as my boss.
-I can.

I'm already treated terribly,

and I don't make a sixth
of what he offered you.

It's not just about the money.
I'm loyal to Mr. Armando.

Even if I have been ignoring his calls.

-Call him.
-What do I tell him?

What if he knows I left with Mr. Daniel?

Even better, maybe he'll get nervous
and give you a raise.

Betty, you missed out
on your chance to be pretty.

-What?
-You know how that saying goes.

There aren't ugly women, only poor.

She's not picking up.

Do you think she's with Daniel?

I just hope she's not telling him
what we left out of the report.

No, she wouldn't do that.
Betty's loyal, honest...

-And ugly.
-So what?

What do you mean "so what?"

When an ugly woman falls in love
there's nothing she won't do.

Are you suggesting
she's in love with Daniel

and is spying for him?

No, I'm saying that Daniel
would do anything

to take away your job.

I wouldn't be surprised
if he told her sweet nothings

so she'll tell him what we're doing.

You killed her!

You'll pay for this as if she were pretty.

So she's ugly and has slow reflexes.

Are you all right, honey? Get up. Easy.

Yeah, I'm fine.

It had to be you!
Be more careful next time.

Sorry, Betty. I didn't see you.

Which is strange,
because such beauty stops traffic.

Hey, hey! Take it easy.

Respect the lady.

Are you really OK? Nothing hurts?

I have a friend who's a nurse.
I can call her.

I'm OK.

Are you sure? Should we drive you home?

Don't you dare!

If her dad finds out, he'll kill us.

Besides, her house is around the corner.

If you need anything, just ask.

I'm Ignacio, but they call me Nacho.

You can call me Nacho, Nachito,
whatever you want.

Up you go.

I just got here from Venezuela,
and we've already run over someone.

Serves me right
for staying with these crazies.

It's fine.

-You OK?
-Nice to meet you. Bye.

What? Did you like Frankenstein?

Of course not!

Don't mistake my kindness for weakness.

All right.

What do you think Efrain
would want to take from this house?

A self-respecting man
will only take his underwear.

Efrain can be anything you like,
but I don't think he's a freeloader.

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

But I will say this.

If he tries to take anything
from this house, I'll kill him!

Then I'll bring him back
only to kill him again.

Calm down. Stay calm.

Remember what we said.
We need to behave like ladies.

Look, he has to realize
what he's missing out on.

Let him suffer for leaving you
for that hussy.

You're right.

Good. You look great.

-Oh, my.
-It's him.

He's here.

Let's do it. Do I look good?

Yeah.

-You sure?
-Go.

-Shake that thing.
-Here I go.

-Check you out.
-Yeah.

You didn't open the door for me.

Just a waste of time.

We won't be here long. It'll be quick.

It's OK.

You know I'm with you in everything.

-That's right.
-Kiss me.

Again.

Again.

You piece of shit!

You'll pay for this! I swear to you!

Bastard!

You'll see! Bastard!

Bastard! You fucking piece of shit!

Crazy bitch.

Sofia! Calm down!

-You son of a bitch!
-You're insane!

You're crazy!

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Are you upset?

No.

I'm just worried because of your brother.

He's still outdoing himself
to undermine me.

He took Beatriz today.

That's why you're upset?

What does it matter?

Maybe he drove her
to a subway station or something.

-Are you jealous?
-Oh, please!

Daniel's never taken a secretary anywhere.

You know that's bull.

He's probably trying to screw me over.

I'll talk to him tomorrow
to find out what he wants.

Great. Talk to him.

But also talk
to your star employee, Beatriz.

Ask her why she was with him.

Dad, you need to promise
you'll go to the doctor.

Don't tell me you don't need to.

And don't worry about
the money for the lawyer.

I'm taking out a loan.

-How will you pay for it?
-I have a salary.

It might take awhile,
but I know I can do it.

Right now, you need to get better.

The last thing I need
is for my daughter to pay my bills.

You're right. I'm your daughter.

That's why I want to help you.

You and Mom
are what's most important to me.

Get some rest, grumpy.

Betty.

Hey, Nacho. What are you doing here?

Ramon told me where you live.

I wanted to know if you were all right.

Does anything hurt?

-No, I'm fine. Thanks.
-I'm glad.

I also wanted to apologize for my friends.

They're bastards.

I don't like the way they ragged on you.

-The way they what?
-Oh...

You call it bullying, or whatever.

You know, their mean jokes.

Oh, yeah!

Don't worry. I'm used to it.

Well, I brought you this
to make you feel better

and so you know
that I know a lady when I see one.

And I can treat her well.

Well, I have to go to work. Bye.

Hey, don't you want the chocolates?

Bye.

Sir, you scared me!

Betty, I want you to tell me

what you were doing
with Daniel Valencia yesterday.

How long have you been working for him?

Did he send you as a mole?

No, sir. I swear I don't work for him.

He offered me a job, but I declined.

Oh, really? You gave up a good salary?

Yes, 200,000 a year and two bonuses.

Why did you?

Because I knew he just wanted to hurt you.

He's not interested in my abilities or me.

I wouldn't have lasted long.

Sir, you gave me an opportunity
and I'm grateful.

I'll never betray you.

Betty, call all the department heads.

I want everyone in the
conference room in ten minutes.

OK, sir.

-Betty.
-Uh-huh?

You're going to the meeting.

OK, thank you.

Betty.

Where are you going? This is your office.

I'm the one who leaves.

Oh, right. I'll call everyone now.

Go ahead.

You met with Armando's secretary.

And don't deny it,
because I won't believe you.

Yes, I did.

I even offered her a job
and a great salary.

-What do you want with her?
-She has an excellent résumé.

Well, the right question is...

why is someone so well prepared
working for that idiot boyfriend of yours.

-She could easily do Mata's job.
-I don't know.

There's something strange about her.
I don't like her.

Besides, Armando and I
have had issues because of her.

-What'd she say?
-She said no.

What?

The idiot rejected me
to stay working with your idiot boyfriend.

Marcela, be careful.

Maybe Armando promised her
something at the company.

-What is this?
-It's an invite.

There's a new gallery in Tribeca.

You can take any of the models.
They're all so pretty.

None as pretty as you.

Thanks.

Urgent meeting?

I'll be in the conference room
in case anything comes up.

Ines!

You left the front desk.

It's just that... Mr. Ricardo
had important mail.

Honey, that man's no good for you.

He just wants to have a good time.

You need a man who loves you
and is supportive of you.

You and your son.

Ines! Gossip runs fast in V&M!

I don't like Mr. Ricardo.
How can you think that?

I wonder why I don't believe you.

Patty. Patricia.

Do you know
what the urgent meeting's about?

-No.
-Did something happen?

No idea.

The gargoyle's the one who set it up.

The gargoyle?

But if you give me half an hour,
I can find out for you.

Half and hour?

The meeting's in less than ten minutes.

Oh, well.

I guess you'll have to find out for me.

You tore everything in half?

Everything. Even his socks.

What was I supposed to do?

Give him everything we both worked for

so he can enjoy it with that... skank?

He's a son of a bitch!

I would've done the same.

I would've kicked his ass and scalped her.

No, girls. Away with that. Forget it.

Violence breeds bad vibes.

I would've gotten a lawyer.

The other day I saw an episode
of Case Closed

where a woman had an affair
with a married man

and ended up getting the house,
the car... even the kids.

No... no, no, no. I mean...

Efrain wouldn't do that to me.

Oh, come on!

He'll do anything.

Didn't he take her to your place?

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

I mean, yeah, but no.

Look, he knows that we both
built that company from the bottom,

that the house belongs to me. Besides...

the money we've saved
is for the kids, for college.

He'd never use a cent of that money.

I'm so excited, sweetie pie.

I don't know.

We opened that account
when Junior was born.

It's to pay for his college.

Well, you need to be on top of things

after what she did to you yesterday.

You have to be ready to fight.

Close all your joint accounts.

Closing that account was the
best thing you could've done.

Think about it.

-But Sofia's not like that.
-Yes, she is.

She could take all your money.

But she's always been very responsible
with our finances.

Well, I wouldn't be so trusting
if I were you.

You know why?

I had a neighbor who got revenge
on her husband

by buying a house using his credit
then led him to bankruptcy.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Except me.

-This should be up here.
-OK, sir.

Fix it.

Come along.

All right, Armie. Stop being so cryptic.

There are lots of us who here
who actually have to work.

Thanks for honoring us
with your presence, Hugo.

I called this meeting to inform you

that starting today,
all banking transactions

will be consulted and managed
by Ms. Beatriz Rincon.

-What?
-What!

This thing will supervise
all our finances?

I'm sorry, Armando,
but you promised me autonomy.

And you'll have it.

Betty's only going to help me
keep the budget under control.

Help her control the effervescence

you've suddenly got bubbling
inside your pants.

She won't control me. Not at all.

Since this young lady
is an attack on the beauty,

the aesthetics, and the glamor
of this company,

if she stays, I'll quit.

What about me, sir?

As Vice President of Finance,

now I need her permission to do my job?

Working with this bum is bad enough.

This is humiliating! This is... ungodly.

Let me tell you...
you're driving me me to quit.

No, I'm not.

But if having Betty
supervise your work upsets you,

you're free to do so.

That's not a problem for me.

I'll accept your resignation
with pleasure.

I know you always supported
Daniel's business plan anyway.

You were against mine.

So keeping you here
is like having an enemy around.

It wasn't personal...

Anything done to undermine my tenure
as president is personal.

One more thing.

Give all your information to Ms. Beatriz.

That's all. Please leave.

Mata, what happened?

Hugo's fuming.
He wouldn't tell me anything.

Here's what happened.

Your boss just essentially,
basically, practically

and maliciously took my job
and gave it to that Betty girl.

What? And you're letting him do it?

No, no. no. I'm not letting him.

He's the boss, the president.
He's free to do what he wants.

He is! But she's not.

Aren't you going to do anything

after what she did to you at the meeting?

I mean, she belittled you.
Made you look this small.

No, hey, just a sec. I'll tell you this...

-that's now how it went.
-It totally did.

I saw it with my own eyes.
She tore you apart.

But you're not the only victim here.

Look at me, I'm just as screwed
because of that bride of Chucky.

But,

I think you and I can do something.

We can't allow this woman to get rid of us
to take over the company.

What do we do?

I have no idea,
but we'll think of something.

We just have to stay calm.

We'll get an opportunity.

You've really done it now, Armando.

Beatriz, I suggest you wear
a bulletproof vest for a while.

All right, my dear revolutionaries.

I should go before this place
turns into Pearl Harbor.

See you later.

Here's your lime blossom tea.

Thank you, Ines.

Can you bring me my Bach flowers?

I have a terrible headache.

What the hell is going on?

Hugo, you've left me a bunch of messages.

I'll tell you what's going on.
Armando's lost his mind.

-He's going to destroy this company.
-Where were you?

Will you tell me what's going on?

Listen, Armando just hand
all the power to that thing he hired.

Turns out we now need her
permission to even buy pins.

Can you imagine? With her horrible taste?

She'd have us buying polyester,
nylon, and terlenka

just to get revenge
on those of us who are beautiful.

That's impossible.
We have a Vice President of Finance.

We used to.

Armando fired him

and basically had the gargoyle
take his place.

He's giving her power.

This isn't over yet. Wait and see.

You know, I've seen
my fair share of telenovelas.

When someone says, "This isn't over",

it already is.

Sir, I wanted to take this moment

to thank you for your support
and for trusting me.

Nevertheless, I don't want
to have any problems with Ms. Marcela,

Mr. Mata and specially not with Mr. Hugo.

Betty, you've shown me you're honest,
loyal, and transparent.

I need someone like you
to always be by my side.

You saved my life yesterday.

I couldn't thank you
because of all the excitement.

My dad wanted to congratulate you too
for your wonderful work.

You did a really great job.

Thank you for being so efficient
and loyal.

Really. Thank you.

-I mean it, thank you.
-Armando, can we talk?

-Sure.
-In private.

I'm in this mess
because I followed your instructions.

Look, Mendoza hates me,
he finds pleasure in humiliating me...

Mata!

He prefers that stupid girl to me.

I can't continue under these conditions.

Please let me work for you. I beg you.

Forget it, Mata.

I need you in V&M now more than ever.

Armando can't keep this up for long.

And remember, Mendoza isn't your enemy.

Beatriz Rincon is.

She's the one who wants your job.

If you quit, she wins.

-Is that what you want?
-No.

Not at all.

So you don't forget Nacho,
the guy from Caracas.

They've been telling you
for over a month, Sofia, look!

The moon, bad omens, bad vibes.

Plus you got the queen of clubs reversed.

A woman in the shadows working
to take what belongs to you.

Honey, it couldn't have been clearer.

Of course. You're right.

But what was I supposed to do?

Stalk Efrain 24/7?
When would I have come to work?

You doing tarot readings?

These poor souls love
wasting their time on silly things.

Hey! It's far from silly, OK?

Mariana's our cyber-witch.

Besides, she's great.

Mariana,

you should read...

-Betty's cards!
-Yes!

-Better her than me.
-I don't believe in that.

-But we do.
-Come on!

Betty, you're our new friend.
We want to know about you.

Besides, you're keep things to yourself.

Let the cards tell us. All right?

All right?

So tell us, Betty,
what are your interests?

Family, business... or love.

Love, love!

-Love.
-All right.

Pick a card. That'll be your present.

Right now,
the most important thing to you...

-is a man.
-That's good.

And he's very important.

Really good.

-That must be wrong.
-All right, sure.

Pick another one.

Come on.

OK. This is you.

Look, you're sensitive and noble.

And you're next to the important man.

Seems like he's really close to you.

Pick the other one.

-The lovers!
-No, no...

Betty, sweetheart!

You're desperately in love with this man.

-No, I'm not in love!
-Yes, you are.

It says this man just came into your life.

Oh, my.

It says he'll change your life

and you'll change his.

If the cards say so...

It's ridiculous
that you're putting your secretary

in charge of making financial
decisions for the company.

What about the Vice President of Finance?

You're humiliating him.
Do you want him to quit?

If he wants to, that's his problem.

Serves him right for siding with Daniel.

So you're getting revenge on him?

I simply don't trust him.

I can't believe you don't understand.

You warned me about Daniel yourself.

You want to hear something
about your beloved Betty?

What?

Daniel offered her a job as his assistant.

-I know.
-Really?

Yes, and Betty figured your brother
just wanted to screw me so she said no.

That's called loyalty, babe,
and it's a concept Mata's unfamiliar with.

Now please stop questioning my decisions.

-Are you listening to yourself?
-Yes, clearly!

I'm asking you not to question
my every decision.

Fine, Mr. President.

Does his majesty want some coffee?

No, thank you.

Who's that important man?

Who is it?

The only important man
in my life if my father.

Oh, please!

It's not your dad.

The card with the lovers
is a confirmation.

It's a couple.

Besides, you really like this man

and he's very, very, very close to you.

OK, OK.

What if that man is Mr. Armando?

No! No! No way!

It's not Mr. Armando. I don't like him.

-Besides, he's getting married.
-Thank God.

That's a weight off our shoulders.

He's engaged with Marcela

and we wouldn't want you to suffer
the same fate as Luisa.

-Oh, my!
-The poor thing!

Who's Luisa?

Luisa was Mr. Armando's old secretary.

She fell deeply in love with him

and when she found out
about his engagement...

She went crazy.

She quit and we never
heard from him again.

Oh, my! And where is she?

We don't know.

Thankfully that won't happen to me
because I'm not into him.

-Good.
-Great.

So who's this man that's so close?

-Yeah, tell us.
-We are all ears.

-It's...
-Yeah?

Nicolas.

-Nicolas?
-Who's that?

-Who is that?
-Nicolas?

Nicolas.

Are you dating Nicolas?

Dating as in dating dating...

as in going out... no.

But we're neighbors
and we see each other often.

Is he handsome?

There's something there.

Your neighbor...

We had another fight.
Marcela's super mad at me.

Lately all we do is fight.

And you still want to marry her?

It's not about what I want.
It's about my obligations.

Although, recent events
have me questioning

whether I'm doing the right thing.

I just downloaded an app that helps
you find the perfect girlfriend.

It's called Perfect Match. It's amazing.

I'm not looking for a girlfriend,
I have a fiancée.

Who's pretty imperfect if you ask me.

Bro, aren't you even
the least bit curious about how it works?

-No.
-Come on. You'll like it.

What for?

Give it back!

No... Nicolas, hide.

Careful, Betty!

Nicolas, what are you doing here?

-What do you mean...?
-Let's go!

I thought we agreed I was
to pick you up in my limousine

to take you to the Hamptons.
We agreed on that.

No, really. What's the matter?

Are you hiding from someone or something?

No... well, yeah.

I just want to leave earlier.

Wait, but promise me
you'll tell me the truth.

Swear it!

You're not hiding me
because I'm ugly, right?

No, silly!

If that were the case,
we'd both have to hide.

You're right.

Try it. It's hibiscus tea.

It's very refreshing
and it has a lot of vitamin C.

My mom wants to know if you liked it.

It's very good. Thanks, ma'am.

Thanks, ma'am!

Sweetie, I'm glad you're home!
Look who's here to visit.

Hey, Betty.

Hi.

-Who's this?
-I'm Nacho, buddy.

Put her there!

Ouch!

You don't have to squeeze so tight.

I dropped by to see you,
but since you were MIA,

I had a nice conversation
with your mom and grandmother.

They're really sweet.

I just wanted to tell you a few
of my buds and yours truly

are having a kickback.

It's gonna be lit, boo.

I'm sorry, but what language
are you speaking?

Well, I'm Venezuelan
if that's what you mean, buddy.

Oh, that's great.

So Betty...

don't play hard to get.

It's just that...

I don't know how to dance
and I barely go out.

That's because you haven't danced with me.

Once you dance with me,
you won't want to stop.

I'm like Happy Feet.

You and I
are gonna have a great time, boo.

Boo.

Marce, I think I found the solution.

To what?

To what? My financial issues!

My extreme poverty.

I've come to terms with the fact

that I won't have what I used to have
with my millionaire

when I lived in Fifth Avenue.

I could get used
to a nice apartment in SoHo.

I don't understand.

Marce, I found him! I finally found him!

I've got him... right here.

Eating out of the palm of my hand.
Come on!

He's smitten with me.

The man!

Can I know who this man is?

No, Marcela. I won't tell you.

You're always bursting my bubble.

All right, I'll tell you, but only
because I love you. Ready?

Yesterday, I spent an amazing night

with a man who appreciates me,
especially for my brains.

That man is...

Ricardo!

Ricardo?

Calderon?

Obviously. Who else?

You haven't learned anything

after your fling with the masseuse.

You're insane.

Ricardo's the worst man in the world.

He'll never ask you to marry him.

Ever!

You see why I never tell you anything?

It's not like I want him to marry me.

For now.

I just want him to move in with me
so he can pay my bills.

You two fought again?

I want to hear the end of Patty's Tales.
It's much more fun.

Cuquito, I don't know
what it is about him.

Everything's changed since I met him.

What do you think? Is it bad?

-Betty, are you awake?
-Come in, Mom.

-Hey.
-What?

That Venezuelan boy's handsome, isn't he?

Yeah, he is.

I mean, I barely understand him,
but he looks nice.

Oh, Mom.

You should give it a try, honey.

That boy's very nice.
He even came to your house.

Mom...

After what happened...

Honey, it's been years.

Give your heart a chance.
You're so beautiful.

-Oh, please.
-You are.

Even if you don't believe it.

If only you saw yourself
the way your father and I see you.

You deserve to be loved more than anyone.

You deserve a family.
Think about it, honey.

Just don't tell Dad about this.

Of course not. It'll be our little secret.

OK.

-Good night, honey.
-Good night.

Say yes, babe.

Betty, I don't understand.

In the meeting, you said
my plan was perfect,

and now you're telling me it's all wrong.

Well, sir.

If we want to reach the goals
you originally set up for yourself,

we need to cut down on costs.

In other words, if we stick to the plan
in its current form,

it could be very risky for the company.

What should I do? How can I fix this? How?

You could cut down on supplies...

or on fabrics,
which are way too expensive.

No, I can't.

I promised Hugo he'd have
total freedom in his new collection.

I can't do that.

Besides, our motto is
"Quality above all else."

I guess. I mean, I'm not really sure,
I don't know much about fabrics.

You asked me to come up with a new plan,
and this is what I did.

Does another way come to mind?

Not from a financial point of view,
but it's your choice.

Well... no one can know this.

From now on, all the department reports

will be strictly confidential, OK?

OK. Yes, sir.

Yes. Bye.

Here I am following the orders

that were given, enforced,
and imposed on me

during our last meeting.

Here are the reports
of this week's expenses.

Thank you. Anything else?

Yes, I'm going to ask
that once you're done

consolidating that information,

that you please
share it with me via intranet.

I can show you how it's done.

Hey, hey. Slow down.

What's delivered
to the president's office,

stays in the president's office.

What? Look, Ms. Finch...

-Rincon.
-Whatever.

I need that information.

My department needs that information.

-We can't just work blindly.
-I'm working blindly.

You have your department's information,

and I can't share information
about other departments.

Who do you think you are?
You're a secretary.

You can't just keep all that information.

Should I talk to Mr. Mendoza?
I'll talk to him now.

Go ahead if you're in a mood
to waste your time.

You think you're so smart,
don't you, secretary?

Listen to me, you greedy, inexperienced,
fresh-faced girl.

Do you know how many girls
like you I've seen?

Well, not exactly like you,
but I've seen been plenty.

You think Mendoza
will protect you forever?

Dream on. And one more thing.

I'll be keeping an eye on you.

Hi, Ricky.

Hey,

you're not standing me up
like yesterday, right?

Where were you last night?

No, I'm talking to your painting.

Look,

I'm not a possessive woman,

but I think that when we're not together,

you need to send me your location
through your phone.

It's the least you can do
so I don't worry.

Wait.

Why should I send you my location?

What do you mean?

Because we're in a relationship.

It's very special to me,
and I think we should be careful.

-Especially the first few weeks.
-The first few weeks?

Patricia, let me explain something to you.

Here at V&M, we have very strict rules.

One of them says employees
can't date each other.

Wait. You're not an employee.

You're a shareholder, and I'm like family,
so that doesn't apply to us.

You know, I forgot
I have a conference call.

If you'll excuse me...

Thanks. Bye.
