- What did you find out?
- You're right.

He's still with Ana.
I saw them kissing.

My mother won't pay good money
for those photos, you know.

If your mother doesn't,
I'll find someone else.

Already done.

Your husband has a bed,
thanks to me.

I'm grateful.

If you want him to stay put,
come and see me here.

Otherwise, you'll just have to

give up everything
I've provided for you.

You decide.

- No more.
- It's too early.

What if she learnt
you're just a fraudster?

Tomorrow.

If I don't pay up,
they'll kill me.

- When do they want the money?
- Tomorrow.

I'll take care of everything.

I've never lied
or cheated on Pedro.

This is my secretary.

- Why do you love me?
- I just do.

It's a feeling and that's it.

- I think I made a mistake.
- Why?

If Pedro were my true love

everything would be clearer.

Shame you've a boyfriend.

I'm going to propose.

- You're rushing things--
- No, it's been six years.

A man came to speak to me,
he knows about Cuba.

Follow the example
of the deceased Rafael.

This will be enough
to never have to see me again.

Everything's there.

- Don't ever come back here.
- Or what?

Not here,
Don Francisco, please.

Doña Blanca.

He should design
the new collection.

Tomorrow, Don Alberto and De la Riva
are travelling to Paris.

They'll buy the fabrics
we'll use to make the new collection.

As his assistant,
you'll go to Paris.

- I'm taking her to Paris until Friday.
- What?

I said I was looking
for a special fabric for Cristina

and that you'd help.

The best thing is that
everyone thinks it's his idea,

so, I'm off the hook.

Clara, I wanted to ask you a favour,

it's to surprise Alberto.

Call the agency

and ask them
for the first flight to Paris tonight.

If Alberto calls,

don't say a word.

What do you think, Rita?

- You're a different person here.
- That's because I am.

Ana Guivega has arrived in Paris.

Doesn't it feel like it'll be
the best weekend ever?

If it's all right,
let's meet here in 20 minutes

because we're going to
my favourite restaurant.

Sorry, I don't feel well.

I think I caught a chill
on the plane, I'll stay.

What a great travel partner.
Ladies?

Well, I came to Paris
to work not sightsee,

but if I must...

- Ana?
- I'm a bit tired.

So, I'll stay here.

What a flop, Rita.

It's just you and me.

Well, Paris la nuit, right?

See you in 20 minutes.

I'll go upstairs.

- I seem to be feeling a lot better.
- Yes...

I've reserved a table for two
at the best restaurant in Paris.

Just in case
you change your mind.

I might just do that.

Meet you in half an hour?

In 20 minutes.

- Here you are, ma'am.
- Thank you, garçon.

Look, Rita.

Isn't it so romantic?

"Paris"

Alberto and I
dreamt of this 15 years ago,

and I can't believe
we're finally here.

- Hold on.
- Where are you going?

To make a call.

There's a phone here.

It'll be expensive,
I'd better go downstairs.

- Who're you calling?
- Never mind.

Rita.

Rita!

Pedro wants to propose
to Clara.

You want to talk him out of it?

I've already tried,
I want to warn my sister.

We're in Paris.

Forget Clara, Pedro and Madrid.

Live your life.

Let's get ready for our dates.

Dates?

I'll be with De la Riva all night.

Alone with him!
What will we talk about?

You're hardly shy.

He'll order wine
and that goes straight to my head.

I'm going to screw up.

What if I call Pedro?

Stop going on about Pedro.

Clara Montesinos Martín.

No, Clara.

Clara, may I propose to you?

Not that either.

Clara, what if
I asked you to marry me?

Clara...

- Would you marry me?
- You praying?

Sorry, I tripped.

But it never hurt
to ask God for help,

you never know with life.

I was practising,

but please, don't tell anyone.

- Are you proposing?
- Tonight.

- Does she know?
- No, it's a surprise.

I can't wait to see her face.

Well, good luck.

I shouldn't need it,
we've been together for ages.

It'd be very unlucky
if she said no, right?

Or very bad timing,
you never know with women.

- What?
- Nothing.

Have you finished?

- In five minutes.
- I'll wait for you.

Let me help you out.

You're going to stress me out.

- Sorry, I'm a bit stressed too.
- Why?

You'll see.

Come in.

Don Mateo,
if I'm not needed, I'm leaving.

I can't keep you
from your important day.

I'm only going to dinner with--

I was told something.

He told you that today
was an important day?

Yes, but it's between
the two of you.

You'll know tonight.

You probably already know
what he's going to ask you.

You'll have to answer.

I also wanted to ask you something,
"Clara with apparently more experience".

Pleased to meet you, I'm Rita.

What if you spent
more time with me?

Isn't ten hours a day enough?

I meant outside work.

- I'm not just anyone.
- I wouldn't ask just anyone.

What do you care
what happens in my relationship?

More than you think.

- Don't toy with me, sir.
- No need for formalities now.

How do you think I felt
when we were going to dine--

And I went with Lucrecia?

What about me

when I found out you had a boyfriend
and not through you?

Sorry!

Have you finished?

I don't think I can go, Pedro.

Don Mateo wants me to stay later

to file all the letters.

Don't worry, Clara,
it can wait until tomorrow.

- Have a good evening.
- Thank you, Don Mateo.

Yes, thank you very much.

- First thing tomorrow?
- Yes.

I've a personal matter.

So, if there's an emergency,
speak to Mercedes.

She'll be in charge.

All right,
I hope your personal matter

isn't anything important.

Thank you, Don Emilio.

About what you saw
in the changing room...

Did I ask for an explanation?

No, but I'd like to give you one.

I don't want you to think
I'm something I'm not.

I fired you for stealing,

and I only let you back
under Don Mateo's orders

and to look after Don Francisco.

The way you do that
is up to you.

Turn off the lights!

May I have your attention, please.

Listen to me for a moment.

Please.

As I told
the rest of your colleagues,

the missing jewelry
has been returned.

I said I wouldn't take action

and I'll stick to my word.

That does not mean
you have my trust.

You've lost it.

And I assure you that it'll take
a long time to get it back.

In the meantime, don't expect
to be treated the same as before.

I trust you understand
that to keep working here

you must hit your sales targets.

Whoever doesn't,
can consider themselves dismissed.

Good night.

Lucky the necklace reappeared.

So, we won't have to pay for it.

And you keep saving
to get away from your mother.

You make it sound bad.

It's hard to get it
when you've grown up without a mum.

And why would
someone with a good job

put it in danger by stealing?

I suppose
there must be a good reason.

You think I took the it?

I saw you looking at it.

Why didn't you say anything?

I'm not a snitch.

Yes.

It's all planned out.

She thinks it's urgent,

I assume
she'll go to the bank first thing.

Good.

I'll see you there.

Excuse me.
I'm looking for Pedro.

Pedro Infantes.

He runs errands here.

Yes, Pedro.

I think he's already left.

- Pepita, have you seen Pedro?
- Yes, he went to Pausa.

Sorry.

Pausa?

It's a bar round the corner.
I'll show you.

If you could...

It's really dead tonight,
we shouldn't have come.

It's early, it'll get lively.

If it doesn't,
that will mean more time for us.

- I'm going to the powder room.
- OK.

Juan, when she comes out

start playing the song.

Esteban, when Juan starts the song

take out the champagne and the ring.

Be careful,
it cost me an arm and a leg.

OK? Clara,

- Marry me?
- Pedro.

What?

Rosa María?

What are you doing here?

We need to talk.

Let's talk another day, I'm busy.

You know I'm dating?

I know, but it's important.

Could we talk another day?

I'm glad you're well,
but Clara's coming out and I have--

His name is Manolito.

- OK.
- It's my son.

Mine and yours.

My son?

It can't be, we only did it once.

That's all it takes.

See how much he looks like you?

Clara.

My favourite song.

Rosa María?
What are you doing here?

It's a small world, right?

That's what they say.

- Well, I'm leaving.
- No, no.

We barely see you.

Yes, but maybe
she has lots to do, right?

Ignore him, you're staying.

Fancy a little drink?

Nothing, really.

Yes, it's on me.

Vermouth and seltzer?

Two vermouths with seltzer

and a Manhattan for me.

If you have time

I'll leave you a guide of my Paris.

Cristina.

I'm ready.

Why all the people?

I want the whole of Paris
to know you exist.

What did you say?

That I love you.

I still can't believe we're here.

Do you know how much
I dreamt of this moment?

Was everything fine?

Your French is driving me wild.

Mon amour.

- Pardon?
- Mon amour.

Alberto.

Coco Chanel.

- I swear it was her.
- That's impossible.

All that was needed
for a perfect night.

I plan an entire evening,

and a Coco Chanel look alike
makes it perfect?

No, it was her.

Life is so unfair.

The perfect end to a perfect night.

End?

I'm taking you out dancing.

Here?

Have you heard
the song they're playing?

If only every day were like this.

It will be.

I promise.

They're closing in five,
so we must leave.

- I'm really glad I saw you.
- Me too.

- See you.
- You know where I am.

- Shall we go?
- Yes.

Let's meet tomorrow
at 10pm in Retiro park.

OK.

You're in a rush.

I wasn't going to
make small talk with her.

You're the one who
insisted that she stay.

You said tonight would be special,
it wasn't normal either, but...

Goodnight.

Sorry.

Shouldn't you be sleeping?

I could say
the same thing, Don Emilio.

You could if it weren't for
significant differences

between you and I:

one is that I'm old.

And with age,
you need less sleep.

You'll learn.

How long have you worked here for?

30 years and three months,

since it opened in 1928.

That's a long time.

Another significant difference.

Was Doña Blanca
here since the start?

Doña Blanca came a little later.

In 1935,
she took time out to train herself

as all of our employees should do.

30 years and one job.

I've had five in the last year.

The number isn't important,
it's the reason.

Maybe it wasn't the right place.

Do you think this is?

You tell me.

You're good, a bit insolent,
but that can be fixed

if this is the life you want.

Think about it.

Some decisions
stay with us forever.

Go to sleep.

Goodnight, Don Emilio.

Patricia.

You didn't seem
in a rush to get home today.

I'm a shop assistant, mother.

I was working.

I'm glad you take
your work so seriously.

Do you know why?

I've waited ages for you
to take the right steps

at the right time.

Do you know what, Mother?

I'm the one taking those steps.

Behind my back.

I'm now aware of that.

Do you know what this is?

Photos of your brother
kissing the seamstress.

The same ones
you tried to buy behind my back.

Don't act offended.

You never trusted me.

You shouldn't be surprised
that I tried to get what I wanted.

- Like mother, like--
- Be quiet.

You're not worthy
of your father's position.

If he were alive to see this,

he'd agree with me.

When your brother
comes back from Paris

he'll be held accountable.

Goodnight.

How long
have you been there?

A while.

I didn't know you snored.

I don't snore.

A bit.

A tiny bit, the noise is very...

- No.
- No.

Where are you going?

To shower? Get ready?

Work?

After five more minutes in bed.

I've been preparing breakfast
all morning.

Of course.

I'll stay for breakfast,
I'm starving.

- Is that the only reason?
- Yes.

Great.

Je voudrais...

make a call to Madrid,

Spain, oui.

To Velvet Fashion Store.

Yes? To Pedro.

Rita, what's up?
Are you that bored in Paris?

No, it's non-stop here.

But since yesterday you told me,

well, you know,

I wanted to know how it went.

Nothing happened last night.

But did you propose to her?

No, things didn't go as planned,
you won't believe--

I won't tell you then.

Rita.

If that's not a surprised face
I don't know what is.

I just wasn't expecting
to see you in Paris.

I'm happy to see you.

Do you know Alberto's room?

No, I don't even know my own.

Madame,

your breakfast.

What's wrong?

The worst thing,
where are your things?

Come with me!

Where?
I don't understand, what's wrong?

Hurry up!

- What's going on?
- She's here.

Who?

Surprise!

I wanted to surprise you, but...

I thought you'd be ready.

I was just going to shower,
we start in 30 minutes.

Come in, please.

I'll be five minutes.

I can't believe it.

I spent years waiting for this

and she has to show up.

But he loves you.

This will turn into the trip
where she showed up.

Well, today it'll be just us.

Remember we have to go
to all the textile stores in Paris.

How could I forget?

I'm here to choose
fabric for her wedding dress.

- So, hurry up.
- Rita!

Today it's Doña Rita,
main assistant to De la Riva.

Big-headed after one night.

What a night!
I'll tell you about it later,

but Raúl said I'd be speaking
like Victor Hugo in no time.

I'm guessing he must be important.

Stop thinking about Cristina.

I'm sure Alberto
will sort something out.

Let's go.

They brought breakfast for two.

Yesterday they brought me
dinner for three.

My French is rusty,
I try to make do

and they end up
bringing me anything.

Well, it's a breakfast for two.

Lucky, right?

- Shall we eat?
- Mais oui.

You got up early, mother.

I told you I'd help you.

Here.

20 years' worth of savings.

- I hope you understand the value.
- I do.

I always thought
it'd be put to good use.

I'd like to think that
you'll leave your old life behind.

I don't know what you must've done,

but I feel responsible.

It wasn't your fault.

You didn't have
the opportunities your sister had.

Or a mother.

But sometimes
we don't have a choice.

Trust me, I know.

What are you doing?

You were going to leave
without telling me?

- I need to be far from them.
- From me.

You can keep running,

but your problems won't disappear.

They just follow you.

Yes, I repeat:

two, six, five, seven,

five, eight.

- I'll be waiting.
- Morning, "Clara with experience".

Good morning.

I see he still hasn't asked you

or you said no.

That's my business.

- He didn't ask.
- That's odd.

Out of curiosity,
what would you have said?

That's too much curiosity.

- Unless you lied.
- Why would I do that?

Well, you wanted to know
what my answer would be.

Nobody proposed to me.

I found Pedro
in the lift down on one knee.

You could easily find out.

He must still have the ring.

I have work to do.

Get me this month's list of sales
when they come in.

OK.

Thanks.

Clara.

- Why are you here?
- Waiting for you.

It looks like I'm going
to have work

so we can't meet.

Never mind.

You're not mad?

No.

Things happen,

especially in relationships.

So, a partner should be
very understanding.

You think it won't happen,
but then...

it does.

So, you're fine, perfect.

- I thought you'd be angry.
- Why?

You said dinner would be special

and then she shows up.

But Rosa María turned up.

The night wasn't that special.

- No?
- No.

Just another night at Pausa.

Well, in that case...

- Perfect.
- Yes.

Perfect, everything
has been said, right?

- Yes.
- Very well, I'm going to work.

OK.

Everything's been said, everything.

Except that I have a son.

Didn't I say?
I didn't know either.

Seven-year-old Manolito.

I really love you, Clara.

I want to marry you.

I hope you don't mind me
having a son.

How wouldn't it bother her?
For God's sake!

I've been waiting for an hour.

I didn't want to be seen.

Have you got the money?

Half of Blanca's savings.
Your share.

What will you do?

Go as far away as possible.

To America.
You can come with me.

No.

What will you do here?

Start with a clean slate.

Wait for me outside,
I'm going to make a call.

Could I exchange money?

My wallet, it's been stolen.

It was him!

- He stole my wallet.
- Close the door!

-Stay still!
-Don't move!

I didn't do anything.

Did you steal 5,000 pesetas?

I didn't steal anything.

Explain where
this money came from,

along with the train ticket.

Take him away.

You bastard, you'll regret this!

You'll regret this!

Come here.

You were lucky to have noticed.

- It's a lot of money.
- Yes.

My mother's savings,

20 years of work.

You'll have to report it.

Of course.

Rita, Ana, how are you?

Fine, Cristina.
I'm surprised to see you here.

Well, I thought
it was an important trip

and that Alberto needed my support.

Actually, I thought of myself,

because a night
in Paris with Alberto

just seems so romantic to me.

A table's booked at Le Petit Point.

They say Coco Chanel is a regular.
Imagine bumping into her!

- How are you?
- Ready, ladies?

I hope you're ready
for what you'll see.

Especially if you're believers,

because the fabrics
are a mortal sin.

- Doña Rita.
- Mr. De la Riva.

Luisa, leave that.

Doña Cayetana and her husband
are waiting for you.

I feel poorly.

Could someone else go?

You know they always ask for you.

Off you go.

- Doña Angela's order?
- Yes.

I want it as soon as it's ready.

What happened?

I fell.

- How did this happen?
- I must have cut myself.

Go and attend to Doña Cayetana.

Come with me.

Quickly.

I said that this is unacceptable.

Is it this girl's fault?

- May I help?
- Why isn't Luisa here?

She had a slight accident.
A cut.

Consuelo is perfectly capable

of finishing it off.

Even if it's last minute.
The christening is tomorrow.

Consuelo will do it.

Excuse me.

Doña Blanca...

Luisa will give us the garment

when we pick it up.

Luisa had an accident,
she isn't available.

You don't understand.
That wasn't the agreement.

I understood you perfectly well.

Maybe you don't understand me.

You already have a seamstress.

If you want something else,
look elsewhere.

I'll talk to Don Mateo.

Do so.
Goodbye.

She turned up out of the blue?
I'm amazed.

I hope she doesn't expect
a weekend of trips around Paris.

Right...

Did De la Riva get what he wanted?
Without ruining us?

Just what I wanted to hear.

Hope you're being sensible
in my absence.

All right.
OK.

We'll be in touch.
Ah, one more thing.

Why not have dinner
with both of them?

Doesn't Cristina like Ana?

Maybe you'll turn a romantic weekend
for two into a wild one for three?

There's a more Solomonic option,
but you won't like it.

Just a second.
Yes?

Sorry to interrupt.
Don Francisco wants a word.

- It's urgent.
- Show him in.

Someone has to go take care
of the company

while you spend
what money is left.

Bring me something expensive.

Welcome to Velvet.

I'm Maximiliano Expósito.
Call me Max.

I'm here to help you.
Please follow me.

Thank you.

What a surprise to see you here.

- Fancy a drink?
- No thank you.

I'm in a hurry.

It was on my way
and I so wanted to congratulate you.

Congratulate me?

I read that the fashion store
has a new member.

Raúl De la Riva.

My brother must be turning
in his grave.

Of course I assume that Alberto

wants to make room
for fresh talent.

My stepson has his own ideas
about running the business.

Let's see if you can afford
his services.

I've always envied
your sense of humour.

I thought you'd say my money.

The last time
you almost begged me for help.

- Me, beg?
- No need to pretend, dear.

No, that's not it.

I just don't remember
the last time we met.

I have a wonderful memory.

I'm not the only one.

I understand if you'd rather forget
certain things.

You didn't tell me, but...

I was told
that you were blackmailed.

By someone who knows
about your past.

Things my nephew
would be interested to know.

I dare say you were able
to pay him.

As far as I know,

he hasn't revealed
your secrets... yet.

You wouldn't dream of it.

Have a lovely day, dear.

Doña Blanca.

- May I have a word?
- Of course.

Don Francisco made a complaint.
What about Luisa?

She cut herself
and couldn't attend to his wife.

He insisted he only wanted Luisa,
no one else.

With all my respect,
I choose the girls.

If I don't look after them,
who will?

Don Francisco?

He makes generous contributions.

If this workshop is running,
it's thanks to men like him.

They pay lots of money
to be treated properly.

I won't lose a special customer.

That's just what I thought.

- He's very "special".
- Meaning?

Nothing.

He's a very influential man.
Best keep on his good side.

All of us.

Do you think it's right to force
a girl to sew with a cut hand?

Eight women working
and I don't hear a single machine!

Thank you so much.

Don't waste your time.
Start looking for another job.

Excuse me?

I can't stick up for you
all the time.

- If you didn't agree to it--
- Of course not.

I was ashamed.
I could've gone to the police--

It would have been pointless.
He has contacts.

If you wish to stop him,
refuse his advances.

Go and see the doctor
about that hand.

A seamstress who can't sew
isn't much use.

Thank you, Luisa.

How are you?
I was told you had an accident.

It was just a cut.

I hope Consuelo
did a good job.

Yes, she did.

You're always so attentive.

- Doña Cayetana.
- Yes?

- May I have a word?
- Of course.

- I don't mean to be a nuisance--
- Not at all.

What's on your mind?

It's about...

Don Francisco.

He made me...

go and see him at a hostel.

I thought he wanted to help.

What with my job
and my husband...

I honestly don't know
what they teach young girls today.

Who gets something for nothing?

He has a crush on you.
So?

You won't be the first
or the last.

- But Doña Cayetana, how--?
- How can you be so ungrateful?

Is it too high a price
after all we've done for you?

You should feel lucky.

- But what your husband--
- If you don't like it,

you could have said no.

I've never seen you this serious.
Nothing to say?

I don't have a lot to say.

What is it?

Who is it?

Susú Miravelles,
one of my best friends.

Could have fooled me.

Don't be silly,
I don't want her to see me here.

None of my friends know I work.

Like it's something
to be ashamed of.

Being a shop assistant is.

There are worse things.

Do you have anything in pleats?
For a dress.

Naturally.
But if you wouldn't mind,

could you ask my colleague?

I have to run some errands.

- The platinum blonde?
- That's the one.

Her name's Patricia,
Patricia Márquez.

Patricia Márquez!

Susú Miravelles!
What a surprise.

I'm the one who's surprised.

I thought you took over
your father's business.

Owners must look after
their business.

Of course,
especially during hard times.

How dreadful.

You knew who she was.
That's why you turned her down.

What are you on about?
I was busy, she came over.

How was I to know
she's a friend?

- You did it to annoy me.
- You're wrong.

What does it matter?

Nothing to be ashamed of.

Here they are.

Perfect for that dress.

And for you, too.

Not many people use that size.

They'll make your legs look longer.

Not that you need it.

Expect me to do it?

You're carrying my bags,
how amusing.

Fancy that...

The girls at the country club
won't believe it.

I'll tell them all to shop here.
It's divine.

Anyway, you might as well
spend money helping a friend.

Lovely to see you.

It was a pleasure.

Twenty orders.

See?
I'm not such a bad salesgirl.

It's all thanks to Carmen.

- She turned down a customer.
- Who?

- It's not that I didn't want to--
- Ask Miss Miravelles if you wish.

Carmen was free,
but she didn't feel like working.

A pity, all those commissions.

Satisfied with the purchases?

Now I can get down to work.

When I do,
you'll be the one who's satisfied.

Aren't we changing fashion
in Spain?

But that's tomorrow.
Right now what I need

is a soak in the tub,
champagne, a feather bed...

Raúl de la Riva
having an early night in Paris?

I have to make up for last night.

This young lady wanted to see
all of Paris by night.

So, this humble designer...

is going to rest.

- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.

I'm exhausted too.

I'll give you one hour.

Then I want you ready
for a big night.

They say Paris never sleeps.
One hour.

Do you need a hand

- with that?
- Thank you.

I have an hour.
Any ideas?

You should get some rest.

You're spending the night with her.

I didn't expect this.
I didn't think she'd turn up.

I know.

I'll have dinner with her,
but I'll come to your room at 1am.

This will be our night again,
I promise.

I promise you...

Take it easy, Pedro.

Take it easy, take it easy...

All right, let's go.

- Pedro?
- Clara.

Very dapper.

Me? Same as usual.

No, not when you go to mass
with your mother.

- Weren't you staying in?
- What about work?

I had work, I did...

But then I realised I'd finished.
Isn't that lucky?

Very lucky.

I didn't say anything
because you were poorly.

You said poorly, right?

I did, but I feel fine now.
All of a sudden

I fancied taking a walk,
visiting my cousins.

- You're acting strange.
- You're tense.

Look who's tense.

Because you're tense, that's why.
What's up?

Last night I thought...

Weren't you off?

Yes, I'll be really late.

Clara.

I love you.

Pedro.

Rosa María--

We didn't arrange to meet here.

This is your father, Manolito.

Go on, say hello.

You asked about him
and now you're shy?

And what about you?

I'm Pedro.

What a pair!
I don't know who's more nervous.

Give him a little kiss.

- It's Manolito, right?
- Manuel.

- Manuel.
- They call him Manolito.

My name's Manuel.

Well, Manuel...

since I missed your birthday...

all your birthdays...

here's a little present.

If you don't like it,
we can change it.

Look, mummy.
A spinning top.

The house has changed
since I was last here.

That was years ago.

What is it I did to offend you?

Me? Nothing, madam.

That's what I thought.
I've been very generous.

- It was in your interest.
- Yes.

To keep my husband's secret.
I gave you what you asked for.

But now I find out

you're selling that
behind my back.

To my sister-in-law.

I didn't go to Pilar,
she came to me.

I don't care about who it was.

You're a businesswoman,
you should be used to it.

The highest bidder wins.

- Pilar is a good bidder--
- How much?

Twice what you gave me last time.

You're a rotter.

You may be right.

Why should I believe you now?

How do I know
you won't come back for more?

You don't,
but you'll have to accept it.

Otherwise,
I'll tell Pilar everything.

You have till tomorrow evening.

This is the one:
Harry's New York Bar.

Raúl says it's where
the Bloody Mary was invented.

I've never been in a place
where something was invented.

Sorry, I'd rather wait here.

You're going to say no
to this list of Parisian clubs?

OK, the exciting hotel room
awaits us.

- So why are we here?
- Ladies.

Good evening.

You look lovely.

You're the lovely one.

- Lord...
- Going out?

I wish.

See you at 1am.

Ana, take a look.

What a lovely dress.

It's so pretty.

Good evening.

- Hello.
- What do you think?

You look...

- That's just the reaction I wanted!
- It's lovely.

- Ready? I'll order a taxi.
- Let's go.

Have a nice night.

- Thanks.
- Thanks.

The dress isn't
that big a deal, is it?

What are you drinking?

I don't fancy anything,
but thanks.

No, I asked what you were drinking.

I don't like drinking alone.
Do you?

A San Francisco.

A Manhattan is better.

Why not?

Excuse me.
A Manhattan for the young lady.

Now tell me what's wrong.

- No.
- No?

- Just had a bad day.
- Looks promising.

I agreed to the drink,
don't tempt fate.

- That's my job.
- We're not at work, are we?

You look pretty tonight.

- I'm the same as usual.
- So you're always pretty, then.

Every time I see you
I want to kiss you again.

So why doesn't he do it?

It's one thing to have doubts
about marrying him,

but now he needs time to think.
About what?

I'm the one who's uncertain.
I don't understand it.

- Did something happen?
- That's what I'm wondering too.

I didn't think I'd see you
in uniform again.

I changed my mind.

I suppose I could say
that I'm happy,

but I'd rather wait a while
to find out if I'm really happy.

I made a mistake.

Doña Blanca.

Someone told me there are decisions
that change everything.

I didn't want this
to be one of them.

Good night, son.

You shouldn't be here.

I need to talk to you.

What is it?

My name is Maximiliano Expósito.

I'm 23, I was brought up
at the Virgen del Carmen orphanage.

My mother abandoned me there.

I never knew who she was.

She left me there in the middle
of the night

without any way
of finding her.

I met Eduardo
when I was seven.

He'd also been abandoned
by his mother.

He was determined to find her.

He knew her name.

Blanca Soto Fernández.

She put this pendant on him
before leaving him there.

I'm sorry I lied to you.

Where is my son?

He died three months ago.

He died?

He asked me to look for you.

And you decided
to benefit from it?

To change my life.
It hasn't been an easy one.

And do you think mine has?

Why are you doing this?

You can't start from scratch
by lying.

I don't care
what they say about you.

You're kind.

And you don't deserve this.

I see the cut is better.

They close soon.
Blanca mustn't see you.

I see she defends you
to the hilt.

We have unfinished business.

Especially after your talk
with my wife.

Did you think
she wouldn't tell me?

Sorry if I caused trouble.

What would you think
if I told your husband

about you meeting me
at the hostel?

Please, Don Francisco--

After what happened,
do you need to be so formal?

What would your husband think?

Please don't do that.

I'm begging you, please.

Do you think
I should do you a favour

after all that?

Please don't do it, please...

You seem surprised.

A bit too surprised.

- Isn't it fantastic here?
- It is...

but it's strange considering
this isn't your first time.

I didn't want to spoil the surprise.

I speak enough French
to understand what they were saying.

They said the gent is here again,
but with a different partner.

From the way they spoke,
it was a woman.

I don't need to be the first one
you've been here with.

For me it's enough to be
the first one you're in love with.

I bumped into an old friend,

- she suggested coming here--
- I didn't ask that.

- No.
- No?

No what?

I'm not in love with her.

Don't lie to me again, Alberto.

There's no need.

Even if it's so I'm not upset.
I'd rather be upset.

Let's order some wine.

They say they have
the world's best wine list.

Of course...

I'll be back before this gets warm.

I'd say this really
isn't cold anymore.

What time is it?

The more you look,
the slower time goes by.

I know that.

I can't stop thinking
about them.

That's the story of my life.

Always been in love with Pedro,
but he's in love with my sister.

It has only taken me
five years to admit it.

We're unlucky in love,
so now what do we do?

- Know what we'll do?
- What?

Ring for room service.

Didn't he say he'd treat me?
So we'll order.

And a toast, too.

- So you find another boyfriend.
- OK.

And so you don't think
about what he's up to.

All right.

Can I order the lobster?

- Whatever you want.
- Great!

Here's to my sister and Pedro.
May they be very happy.

Or perhaps not!

- Rita--
- It's OK.

She doesn't love him,
it's his lookout.

Me, worry?
I'm delighted to be here.

Aren't you?
Champagne is sheer joy.

Know the only thing missing?

- I'll ask the garçon to join us.
- Good idea.

I didn't mean it.
No, Rita!

Don't!
What time is it?

Two or three o'clock,
it's perfect.

I bet they're not back yet.

Dinners last for ages here.
They eat cheese at the end.

He must be having
an awful time.

Not like us.
We're having a great time, right?

I'll lie down a bit.

My head hurts... a bit.

What about the red one?
No...

The Tom Collins.
It was delicious.

I'd love to bathe
in Tom Collins.

If I go on like that,
I won't fit into my wedding dress.

See the waiter's face
when you ordered another?

It's the best thing ever.

Well, the second best thing.

Thanks for a wonderful night.

You arranged it all.

You get out here, miss.

"Mrs." Márquez.

We're not going to get worked up
about a little detail, are we?

No.

Cristina...

You've had too much to drink.

Better that way.

Where are you going?

Careful... careful...

Give me the key, please.

- Give me the key.
- No.

Come on, use your head.

That's the only part of my body
I won't be using tonight.

What happened?

Go back to sleep.

Can we talk, please?

You want to talk?
How dull!

Blah, blah, blah...

Where are you going?

- You've had too much to drink--
- Better that way.

No more drinks for today.

What?

No.

I'll be right back.

Ana?

Ana?

Ana?

Open up, Ana.

Ana, open up.

Ana!

Aren't you going to open it?

Ana?

Ana, open up.

Ana!

- Excuse me.
- Ana...

I'm not cheating on you.
I'm doing what you asked me to.

- I love you.
- Me too, but that's not enough.

I have to leave Cristina.
I'm confused.

Cristina is a beautiful, fun lady.

You can go anywhere with her.

- What if Ana didn't exist?
- News?

- Pedro was going to propose.
- Do you want him to propose?

Luisa, a visitor.

Juan?
It's you!

I got discharged.
It's in remission.

Nice of him to leave the hospital
when he's ill.

- Nice thought--
- He was discharged.

Is that what he told you?

Doña Blanca?
Are you all right?

Do you really want to get better?
You need to express what's inside.

We can carry on pretending
I don't know.

My advice:
do something.

- See you tonight.
- See who?

My cousin Roberto.

- Your cousin?
- Yes.

- Rosa María.
- Huh?

I'm not stupid.
Don't make sacrifices.

Are you making sacrifices
to be with me?

I really don't know.

- Who is he?
- Manuel.

- You can call me Manolito.
- My son.

If you don't want them published,

100,000 pesetas at 158, Alcalá.

Tonight at 10pm.

I can't take it anymore.
Say it and our problems are over.

I won't pretend to be marrying Cristina,
you won't have to hide at hotels.

It's over.
All over.
