1 That's the car Taiguer asked for.

It's open.

Hell yeah, man! Hell yeah!

Careful, Javo. You'll crash it!

Relax, man!

We'll each get at least 50,000 pesos.

TAIGUER'S JUNKYARD

Here, Taco.

Give Bolillo his share too.

Amazing, dude.

Thanks, Taiguer.

See you, brother.

What about my share?

Get to work.

You have to change the tires on Julián's car.

What the hell, Taiguer?

Bolillo and Taco were no help at all.

I did all the work.

You're a mechanic, Javo.

I don't want you getting into trouble.

I'm your uncle. I promised your dad I'd take care of you.

My dad is dead.

Exactly. That's why.

You are...

You, and Mike, and Heidi...

You're all I have left of my brother.

Heidi is turning 15 and without that cash, we need to cancel her party.

That's why I took on that job.

I'll give you the money later.

{n8}MEXICO CITY POLICE

You're dead, Santos.

What did you do wrong?

I let my guard down.

Never forget it!

Letting your guard down could cost your life.

WE WERE KINGS

What's up?

How are things?

What's up?

Want some beer?

No. I just came to say hi.

"I have to keep my body pure because I'm a Nazarene."

- Jackass. - It's the truth.

Come on. Even Christ drank wine, Santos.

I have to go. I'm meeting the Nazarenes.

Thanks for lending it to me. Here you go.

- Did my Saint Jude bring you luck? - Yes. Well, more or less.

You did well, Santos.

You got nervous at the end, but that's very common.

All right.

Dinner at your house!

That dude is crazy.

But we love him anyway.

A Nazarene police officer. Unbelievable, man.

What's up?

Thanks.

Ma'am.

Can I borrow it?

Hey, man.

Javo's always had girlfriends,

but this time it's different.

He seems totally smitten.

But I don't know who she is.

I know who can tell us, Norita.

Malena!

- Hi! - Hi! How are you?

- Can I have a flan? - Sure.

Me too, honey, please.

Yes, of course. Sure, girl.

It looks good.

- Listen, can I ask you something? - What's up?

- Do you know who Javo is seeing? - Why would I know?

What do you mean?

You're his godmother, and his best friend's mom.

Santos hasn't told you?

He hasn't said anything. Can you believe it?

You know how boys are. They stop telling you things.

He's been seeing this mystery girl,

but doesn't want to tell Nora who she is.

- Mom! - Hi, son!

Ofe.

Hi, godmother.

How are you?

What's up?

We're talking about your secret girlfriend.

Oh, really?

Spill the beans.

What are you doing?

For Heidi's party, right?

Okay. I have to go, I have to get back to work.

Bye.

{n8}Why is everyone asking me the same damn thing?

I already told Mom. Taiguer gave me an advance on my salary.

But now you have to invite Taiguer to the party, Mom. Okay?

What have you got against my uncle?

All he's ever done is try to help us.

I look ridiculous. I look like a piñata.

Hey, no.

Our princess looks beautiful.

Yes, she looks really gorgeous.

Javier Reyes, at your service.

You look lovely, princess. Really.

Seriously. That color looks great on you.

Hey, Santos.

How much do you think your mom would charge to bake the cake?

I don't know.

I'm sure she'd want to do it for free.

No, no. That would be asking too much.

No way.

- Who is it? Your girlfriend? - What?

- Don't play dumb. - You have a girlfriend? You didn't say.

No, man.

This young man here has been seeing a girl for a while.

He comes in smelling like hotel soap.

Don't listen to them. It was a message from Taco.

So you'll bring him to the party, right?

No, Mom.

- Why not? - His boyfriend will get jealous.

Okay, enough. When do you graduate?

He's changing the subject, see?

"When do you graduate?"

His ceremony's on Monday. You're coming, right?

Of course, son. We'll be there.

You're one of the family.

Santos, your mother must be so proud of you.

Yes.

I'm running late.

Listen, Mom, I'm looking for...

I need...

What? Why the long face?

I don't like having that thing here.

Mom, it's a tool of the trade.

If anything happened to you, I'd die.

Nothing will happen.

Mike's been an officer for years and he's never used his gun.

And his mom's fine.

But Nora is used to it, son.

I can pay our debt this way.

It's 200,000 pesos, Santos.

- I'm the one who owes it. I should pay it. - But we both live here.

Okay?

Don't worry.

I spoke to Mike.

He has sway with the higher-ups.

They'll help me get a loan from the credit union.

I didn't want to tell you until I was sure,

but have some faith, Mom.

Have faith.

That's why I'm a Nazarene.

The Señor de la Cuevita will grant us a miracle. Okay?

Go. You're going to be late.

Did you forget your keys?

What are you doing here?

Why aren't you answering my texts?

Because I can't. I don't have time.

Come on, babe.

What?

What?

We can't keep doing this, Javo.

How many times have we said that in the last six months?

True, but six months ago we had an excuse. We were drunk.

Maybe I haven't sobered up yet, and neither have you.

You know what this is called, don't you?

Don't even think about it.

I love you, dammit. And you love me. Why are we playing dumb about it?

You can't be serious.

I'm old enough to be your mother.

You're not my mother, Malena.

You are my girl. Get it?

I want to be with you.

Go be with one of those girls who throw themselves at you.

I don't want any of them. They bore me. They annoy me.

But it's different with you.

Being with you,

talking to you...

fucking you...

It's like nothing I've ever known.

{n8}NAILS... AND MORE

Didn't you notice how nervous she got

when I asked about Javo's secret girlfriend?

You better not say I'm seeing Santos.

Santos sees you as a mother.

You basically raised that boy.

They gave each other looks.

Stop it, Ofelia.

Enough already.

No, we already had breakfast. We're not getting that.

No jello.

Let's go and we'll eat there.

We already had breakfast.

We'll buy something to eat when we're there.

Hey! What are you doing?

Relax, babe.

No.

- What flavor? Strawberry? - No, young man.

Don't eat that. They don't have any money to pay.

Don't worry, ma'am. Today is a very special day for the lady.

They're a couple!

- They like each other! They kiss! - She's my girlfriend.

With their mouths!

Say thanks!

Thank you.

Thank you.

You are crazy, Javier.

I just lost a lot of money.

It was all I had.

Don't worry, babe.

I just fixed a car for a guy, and he gave me a very good tip.

I'll give you half.

Now relax.

Let me love you.

Enjoy our romantic outing.

See those little houses there?

I'd like us to live in one of those.

Get some chickens. Lots of cactuses.

A little doggie.

- A dog? - A little doggie.

How will you pay for it?

With the tips you might get?

For fuck's sake, babe. Let me dream!

Dream with me.

When you're in love, you do stupid things, okay?

- How is my fifteen-year-old birthday girl? - Granny!

- Hi, Mom! - Hi, love.

I'm glad you're here.

Can you keep an eye on the mole while I sweep?

I'll finish your hair in a minute.

- I knit some stuff for the baby. - Hi!

{n8}CONGRATULATIONS, HEIDI

{n8}Put it on the table. Here, let me help.

{n8}- Careful. - Right.

There you go.

- It looks great, Male. Thanks so much. - Glad you like it.

Let me pay for it.

Don't be ridiculous. We agreed the cake would be my gift.

Thanks. Come here.

A secret admirer sent Heidi a giant teddy bear.

- Wanna see it? - Yes.

- Where's Javo? - On the roof. He said to go up.

See you.

- Come. - Was it the baby's father?

In life, sometimes things happen that we cannot control...

Bro, your mother's been alone for a long time.

It's time she got together with a man.

A real man, someone who...

No way, I can't say that bullshit.

Are you talking to yourself?

What's up, dude?

Sit down, bro.

No, dude. You know I can't.

Come on, Santos. Dude.

We smoked our first joint together, right here.

Yes, but it was ages ago.

Things change.

You have a real talent, bro. Why didn't you keep at it?

- I have to tell you something. - I know.

What do you know?

The money for the party.

Taiguer gave it to you. In exchange for what?

Don't play dumb.

Everyone knows what Taiguer does.

Everyone who? Mike? Did my brother tell you to talk to me?

Don't be stupid. I'm worried about you ending up in jail.

Taiguer has friends in high places.

He gets more respect than your damn bosses.

- Sure. - With Taiguer, I'm protected.

Until he gets caught and takes you down with him.

I'm serious. Leave that business behind.

Why don't you leave the police force?

How is the pay there?

Is it the same pennies they pay Mike?

Oh.

Leave that holier-than-thou attitude for the procession.

Look. Do you see the amount of supports on all of these houses?

Do you know how long my mom's been saving for a second floor?

What's that got to do with it?

On this damn hill, people who are good and honest...

this is all they get.

Supports they never use.

The people who want more?

We only get two options,

politics or crime.

And guess what?

I can't fucking stand politics.

It's too risky. Think about your family.

I am thinking about them.

My grandma is 80. She shouldn't be working.

My mom, who works her ass off.

And Heidi.

I'm thinking about her baby.

Your mom too.

Stay away from my mom.

I'm dead serious.

I'll take care of her, okay?

Understood.

Okay.

Well, then.

I have to tell you something important.

More news?

I don't know if you'll understand.

Come on! Spit it out.

I love you so much, bro.

I'd never do anything to hurt you.

I love you too, man.

But stop smoking that shit.

You get too intense. You'll make me cry.

A round of applause!

Bravo!

Let's welcome Officer Miquel Ángel Reyes, the birthday girl's brother!

He's honoring us with his presence.

Look, honey.

Happy birthday, princess.

I love you. Have fun.

Giver of the first high heel!

Give her a round of applause!

Bravo!

- Happy birthday. - Thank you.

- A round of applause! - Heidi!

Give it up for the birthday girl's mother.

Bravo!

And now, let's make way

for Herminia, the grandmother!

And now a round of applause for Javo!

And now Heidi's eldest brother, Mike!

And now give it up for their family friend, Santos!

And now, everyone on the dance floor! You know this song!

Sing it, Javo!

- What is that? - Come on, son.

- Want a drink? - No.

- Come on. - You know I can't.

- Don't make a fuss. - I'm a Nazarene.

- No, no. - Come on.

It's time you have some fun. Go on.

Go on.

You have my permission.

Look, there are lots of girls here. Go on and dance.

Great job, Heidi! Amazing! Go on! You're doing great!

{n8}- There you go, my girl! Great job! - Give it up for Heidi's dance!

{n8}XV HEIDI

Is that the baby's father?

Ofelia...

Come on, Daughter. Don't you want to know?

Of course I do, Mom. But I'll find out. You'll see.

My poor granddaughter. Her dream was going to Medical School.

That's still her dream, Mom. She still wants to go.

- She's studying to sit the exam at UNAM. - Really?

And who'll take care of the baby?

Hello, ladies! Ofelia, nice to see you.

You too.

Can I have this dance, sister-in-law?

You and I haven't been related for a while.

- I'm getting another drink. Want one? - No.

Bro!

Just the man I was looking for.

You're really drunk, bro.

Didn't you say Nazarenes didn't drink?

Don't drink too much, graduation's tomorrow.

I talked to Captain Pedroza.

He says he will help you with the loan for your mom.

But we need her info.

- Really? I'll get her right away. - Yes. Sure.

It's Heidi's birthday!

DJ Gallina in the house!

NAILS... AND MORE

Someone's in h...

Jesus, babe!

You scared me, dude.

What is it?

"Oh, Malena. I can't live without you. I love you so much."

"I just want to be with you."

It didn't even take you ten minutes. You fucking child!

Why are you following me?

To tell you you're an asshole!

What about you?

"Oh, Officer Mike." Don't think I didn't see you.

- What? - "What?"

Didn't you say to find a girl?

How fucking obedient of you!

Herminia, have you seen my mom?

- I think I saw her go to the toilet. - Thanks.

What?

Mom!

Santos!

Bro!

Javo?

What's going on?

Let's dance, Reyes!

Nothing! I'll be right back.

That fucking traitor!

Santos.

Hey.

My mom, you asshole? You're fucking my mom?

I can explain. Put the gun down, it might go off, man.

It won't go off,

I'll shoot you in the face, you fucking traitor!

We grew up together!

I'm sorry, little bro.

You're not my brother. You are a fucking Judas.

You're right, man.

I know I'm shameless, but...

You're really drunk. Give me the gun.

Hey, hey!

Fuck you, Javo.

I love your mom, Santos!

I love her with all my heart.

She's your godmother, man.

She could be your mother.

You were going to tell me on the roof.

Yes.

But I was too embarrassed.

And now look how you found out. Fuck.

Forgive me, Santos. Sorry, man.

You can apologize, but you're still a traitor!

Hey, Santos.

I don't want you to fuck up.

I love you, brother.

Forgive me.

- No! - There, there.

It's okay.

Give me the gun, man!

I'll do everything right with your mom.

Don't say anything.

Give it.

I'll take care of her. You and I will be closer than ever.

- Shut up, asshole! - Santos!

Friends don't fuck your mom.

Give me the gun, man. Let go.

Hey.

Hey. Hey.

Santos.

Hey, brother.

Santos.

Hey. No.

No. Don't do this to me, man. Santos!

Hey.

No. Hey. Come on. Don't do this, Santos.

No.

Javier?

- Sweetheart... - What happened?

Are you okay?

What happ...

What happened?

How did this happen, Javier?

Who killed him? Who was it? Please!

Don't move!

Javo? Malena.

What happened?

Answer me, Javier!

Who killed my son? Tell me, please!

Santos and I...

We were talking and then...

They got mugged.

It's happened three times this week.

I saw him. The guy ran past my house.

He was wearing a camo jacket.

Right?
