Original subtitles

I picked you up I took a bite out of you

You laugh and make my head spin

Come over here, I'm thirsty and I want your cool water loving

I picked you up I took a bite out of you

You laugh and make my head spin

Come over here, I'm thirsty and I want your cool water loving

I picked you up I took a bite out of you!

You're so silly!

I can help, right?

Come here.

"Double bed, Mrs Aida's room."

This is for senhora Aida's room.

It doesn't go here.

They're all the same.

That's what you think. Everything's marked, look.

Even the ones for the children.

"Double bed, Mrs Manuela's room." This is the one.

Things have to be done the right way.

- They wouldn't even notice. - That's what you think.

No, the other way round.

Things have to be done correctly, and that's that.

That's how it's always been done here

and how it will always be.

Is that good?

Come on.

Put some effort into it.

The blanket.

It's old, but it's really warm.

Isn't it?

Yeah, I guess.

Of course it is. Can't you feel it?

Nice and taut.

You do it right when you want to.

What did the bosses say about you leaving?

They know it's just temporary.

That's what you think.

When people leave, they never come back.

As for me...

I've never wanted to leave,

I like living here.

This is wrong.

It should be tucked in.

Give me a hand, please.

There.

That's good.

Thank you.

Those damn dogs. Quiet!

They give me a headache.

They must have smelled the stew.

Feeding them stew isn't good!

You should give them dry dog food.

Dry dog food, you say?

Never.

Don't you dare give them any!

I don't even want to think about it, you hear me?

Yes.

Go on, you got things to do!

That's good!

Will you all come back here? Or do you want to live in Porto?

When you're old, you'll come back here.

I'll never be old.

That's so stupid!

- You don't know. - The things you say.

I think you need to live in the moment.

Now, my life is in Porto.

The thing is, you live in the moment

but your parents don't.

They're thinking about the future.

My father's working like crazy, but what for?

It's not like that.

He'll make money working abroad and blow it all here.

Why would he do that?

My brother and I won't touch anything.

What should he do? Give you his money?

I don't know.

Go travel with my mum.

She's coming with me this time.

- We're both going. - That's good.

- A man on his own out there... - It's no life.

You going by car or plane?

By van with some others.

Are you taking some chouriço?

Charcuterie?

Some ham, some cod.

- What doesn't kill you, makes you fat. - True.

- Go get napkins. - Wipe yourself.

It got on your jumper!

Where's the bottle? Is it already empty?

There's not much left.

Is there any left?

Are you taking some to France?

Wine? Well, I have to.

The wine there is terrible.

It might go bad on the trip. You should bring it in your belly.

- I'll take it now, then. - It stains your tongue.

Drink up.

You have to work too.

- I'm not doing any more! - There's still a lot to do!

I'm not washing the cement mixer.

I'm going with Ana.

Just the two of us.

We'll get an apartment.

Good for you.

And your children?

They're are all grown up now.

You'll have grandkids soon.

My kids will get degrees, so they won't live like us.

Stay.

Milinha?

Milinha?

...Thy kingdom come,

Thy will be done

on Earth as it is in Heaven.

What's wrong, Milinha?

...and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those who trespass against us.

Lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil, amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord be with you.

Blessed art thou among women.

Blessed be the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners,

now and at the hour of our death...

Here, Milinha.

I don't want that!

Blessed art thou...

Get that away from me!

Go!

What's that smell?

I won't be making jam this year.

Did you smell it when you arrived?

I could smell it from downstairs.

I could only smell the dogs' stew.

Nice and golden.

Just the way senhora likes them.

Senhor likes them a bit browner.

Turn off the stew, please.

Hello, Zé.

I've brought last year's rent money.

I'll make a note for the senhores.

- I pay my dues. - Alright.

I've been a tenant for over 70 years.

Yes, Zé! The senhores know it too.

Alright then, all the best.

God be with you. I have a lot to do.

The two of us shared a wild night of passion

The love we made was magic under the glare of darkness

It was a well-kept secret one to be repeated

I don't know your name and with a smile I call you

Black Rose, my sign

Ana!

Ana! Turn that dreadful music off!

Black Rose, you will be

My palace...

Ana,

have you seen this tablecloth?

Don't you think it needs to be ironed?

Are you blind?

Go take care of it.

Ana!

- Ana! - Yes, Milinha?

Look. The bosses aren't coming after all.

You can take the muffins home.

Just leave one or two for me.

What will I do with all those muffins?

Feed them to the dogs, they'll eat them right up.

Feed them to the dogs...

And then what?

That will poison them.

There was a fair and fireworks

The people filled the streets

Joyful as they used to be

Singing:

If it's the king's birthday

Let him come meet us...

This shirt is really cute.

It looks good on you.

- Is it new? - No.

I've never seen you wear it.

I haven't worn it in ages.

Wear it like this.

It looks great on you.

It's really cute.

You like it?

Yeah!

Then it's yours. Keep it.

Thanks, it's really cute. I love it!

It looks better on you. I don't wear it any more...

It's cute just like this, right?

You wear something basic, and the look's complete.

Yeah, it looks great on you.

Just don't wear it with sweatpants.

Of course I won't!

But it looks great.

Yeah, I love it.

It goes well with your skin tone.

It makes you look more...

different.

Yeah, I like it too.

I wish we could go to a party now.

Another one? We're still getting over the last one!

We got over it hours ago.

I'm kidding. But there's nowhere to go here.

We could listen to some music...

Trance music.

We could ask...

to borrow speakers.

We could organise a trance party.

- I'd be cool. - No one would come.

They would! People like you who live in Porto...

But who still stick around here!

And they just happen to be here.

You've got friends here.

Yeah, but I don't think...

Even if it's just the two of us, it'd be fine.

We have had some cool parties, just us two.

That's true.

A few, but yeah.

We don't need anyone else!

You're all nice men,

but I don't need to go to the hospital.

I'm feeling better now.

I'm fine. I don't want to go.

- These straps are a mess. - It'll be quick.

I'm tired of tests. There's nothing wrong with me.

Come on, Milinha, do as they say.

It was quite a fright.

There's no need, I'm fine now!

You called us here.

Let's go to the hospital for a quick check...

- Are you a family member? You coming? - Yes.

Ms Emília never had any of the prescribed treatments.

She said they'd be putting her in a home.

But apparently...

Treatments?

She's not in a home.

Okay.

She has a multiple myeloma.

Which is a disease

where the sick plasma cells cause lesions in the bones.

Her antibodies are already very weak...

Ana!

Let's go!

Come on!

Why the long face?

I didn't like that doctor one bit.

Do you have anything to drink?

Do you want water, juice?

Juice.

So good!

Look, Aunt Botica's muffins.

I love them!

- Do you have ice cream? - I do.

Get some for us.

Is Aunt Botica a cook?

No, she's a housekeeper.

She's not a cook, no.

She lives in Botica.

My mum works with her, they take care of the house.

But why?

You said that no one lives there.

The owners live in Lisbon.

But if the house is empty...

Oh crap. I'm sorry.

Be careful.

But if the house is empty,

why do they take care of it?

The owners are not there.

This way everything's in order when they come back.

They take care of the hens, the house.

My mum works there with her.

It's like the time of the kings, you know?

You're so cruel, sometimes. Seriously.

Hey, Mum.

Hey.

Hi.

You came.

I did.

Mónica invited me. She said you're going to France.

How are you, dear?

You okay, Mum?

You know how late it is?

What've you been up to?

Milinha wasn't feeling well.

Everything all right?

It will be.

Eat up. I'm going to bed.

"A handbook on how to communicate with horses"?

"Lesson number one:

"Always look where you want to go.

"Lesson number two:

"Don't hold your breath, so you're more relaxed.

"Lesson number three:

"When holding the reins,

"imagine you're holding a small bird..."

Hush! Keep it down.

...a small bird in your hands!"

Can you picture that?

Riding like that!

"Lesson number four:

"Hold on but not too tight or you'll hurt the horse."

That's what we have to do with...

With our boyfriends! You're so stupid...

Seriously, Mónica!

- I was kidding. - Anyway.

Father?

Father?

Father?

Father?

Ana, come in, my dear.

May I?

Yes.

Hello, Ana, I'm sorry.

I got a lift at the last minute.

I had a feeling you were coming.

I got your shopping done.

Just missing a loaf of bread, but I'll get that later.

That's what I like!

Is senhor better?

My sister called,

he's back home now.

Have you talked to Milinha?

I saw her when I arrived,

but we haven't spoken yet.

Why is she sleeping upstairs now?

Does my sister know?

Maybe I overstepped, Father.

It's been very cold.

They say this winter will be even colder.

So, I moved her upstairs.

But I will let senhora know.

What are you doing?

I'm removing this poor crocodile.

If the Jesuits see I bought this shirt,

I might get scolded.

And I've had my fill of sermons.

Let me see, I'll help you.

Poor little crocodile.

What would I do without you, Ana?

You know what?

If my sister twists an ankle, I'll be alone here next summer.

Oh my goodness!

That's not very priestlike!

So, the shopping I did...

What about it, Ana?

Who's going to pay for it?

You know I'm poor.

My sister will pay you back later.

It eases my mind to know you're taking care of Emília.

"They all wound, but the last one kills."

What?

The hours.

The hours going by.

My father had that inscribed on a pocket watch.

All done.

Here you are.

Your scissors.

Excuse me.

Thank you, Ana.

You're an angel.

There's no work for me here, Ana.

Together, we could have a good life and some money.

We could finish the house.

I won't clean French folks' shit.

You'd rather clean Portuguese folks' shit?

It's the same thing.

I can't leave her.

I know, Ana.

What should we do?

Give me a kiss.

What I want is...

I want you to come with me.

You're coming with me. And that's it!

Right?

We talked it out and now this?

I don't want to go either.

You want me to go alone is that right?

Okay.

I don't know what to do.

Give me the jugs.

Excuse me.

Pass the basket.

Is the box inside?

Put your box in, we'll pack the jug after.

Is there room for this?

- Safe travels. - See you soon.

Mind your heads!

Cool it, man!

Safe travels.

Listen to your mother.

Is there something wrong with you?

Ana is taking care of me.

She overdoes it.

Emília!

Where are you going?

Do you need anything?

Emília!

It's cold.

It's not just you.

It's colder here in Légua.

It wasn't this cold in Braga.

It doesn't feel right being in the children's room.

Let us look after you.

We're your family.

Thank you.

Where is Father?

He left.

Get me some water, please.

Thank you.

Mónica, come on!

- I'm coming. - Let's eat!

Wait a minute, wait.

Hold on to me.

Wait.

I've made a mess.

Slowly.

Mind her cane!

Thank you.

Did you buy your tickets?

I'll do it later.

You taking the bus or train?

- The train, Mum. - You need to buy them now!

I know, Mum! Come on.

You're stressing me!

They're good, Milinha. They're the sweet kind.

Come on, eat this orange.

They're tangerines.

They're oranges, Milinha, from the garden. The sweet ones.

They're tangerines!

Here we go.

Milinha...

These are oranges, Milinha.

You're right.

Why do you have to insist?

You can see they're oranges!

The robot rotates...

Some robot...

It must be broken.

It won't peel itself.

What, isn't it true?

The knife, Milinha.

No need.

I'll use my nails.

Here, I'll help you.

So, how is it?

Has everyone been served?

I'll fix her a plate.

Move over, dear.

- It's really good. - I told you!

Eat up!

Give me some of that, dear.

Just a little bit.

Like that, she'll like it.

Shall we eat a little?

- Mum, is there cake? - There's cake and pudding!

Me, in pink? Spare me!

Purple could work for you.

No pink or blue,

you'd have a trendy purple one.

It would look great on her.

You never know!

I always wore a miniskirt to the party.

It's "pinscher", right? "Pinscher" or "pincha"?

Pinscher. What "pincha"?

She's making no sense. Oh, my God!

Well, if it's a male, it's got a "pincha"!

- That's right, Soraia! - Yes, it is.

- Hey, sis! - How are you, bro?

Let me say hi to him!

Wait, it's my turn now.

- Say hi to Ana Cláudia. - Hi, cuz, how are you?

- Wow, your hair! - Do you like my look?

Okay, moving on.

Look.

- Everyone's here. - Let me speak to him.

Here's Mum.

Hi, dear!

Happy birthday, Mum!

Oh my! What a beard!

He looks good.

Thank you, dear.

- Are you okay? - Happy birthday!

- Thanks. - Wish you were here.

He looks like a goat!

Bye, dear!

Kisses!

Let me set this down there.

Bring over the cakes.

That's it.

Go, Ana Cláudia!

Happy birthday to you!

I'm a Portuguese woman

And I know for certain I want a party for me

I live life my way, I kick up my heels

I'm so happy this way

Come over, on this lovely night

It's still very early, together we'll dance

The band plays, the people sing

The fireworks are in the air

In the procession, even the sexton, everyone wants to party

On the day of the feast, all night and all day

Everyone wants to party.

The single and married, blessed one and all

Everyone wants to party

And on my own, I'll go hoping that my love

Wants to party too

Oh, my God! Why do you make me do these things?

Senhora doesn't want them anymore!

Where will you put them? At our place?

No, I'll send them to Lisbon on the bus.

Wait! She's coming out.

Come on.

Come on, out!

Come on, out!

Come on!

Testing my patience.

Alright, get the box.

Mum, look at this.

You're doing the others' work.

You should be with Dad.

Milinha isn't your responsibility.

You're taking care of a haunted house!

She should be in hospital or a home.

Not here, relying on you for everything.

- Plus, she's mean. - Quiet!

I can't abandon her!

She helped me raise both of you!

And besides, it suits me.

I work less and I earn more.

The day you're old,

what will you do?

Or me?

You all talk and talk...

Get in the car.

There you go! Proper dog food for you.

There you go!

Eat up, here you go!

What's wrong?

Here.

She brings her laundry here to wash.

She won't call her mother.

Why does she come here?

- What? - She adds to the workload.

What's Mónica studying?

Engineering.

Why is Vítor working abroad?

You see? Your test results got worse.

That's not good.

That's not good at all.

It really isn't.

Did you hear the doctor? You can't be on your own.

We've already talked about this, but you won't come to my home.

You have to help me, Milinha!

Something has to change.

You're going to have to cooperate.

I can't leave you on your own.

No way!

From now on, things will only get worse.

This isn't good at all. It really isn't.

Just mind the furniture, please.

Careful.

Over here. Let's put it down.

There.

Let's turn it.

Take the railing out.

Will you connect the cables?

Put that here.

The bed is very easy to use, there are pictures on the remote.

This button raises the head of the bed.

The next one makes it go down.

This makes the legs go up.

With this one, they go down.

And this button does both at the same time.

The main control over there monitors

the heartrate and does CPR.

I don't think we'll use that.

No, I don't think so.

It looks comfortable.

That one raises her head.

- Can I control it from here? - It works through the bars.

Very good.

- That one's for your feet. - The feet.

The lower button does both at the same time.

This is comfortable!

The memory foam mattress adjusts to your body.

I could sleep here.

Milinha, here's your soup, nice and hot.

Don't let it go cold. I'm leaving now, alright?

Can't you stay?

No, I can't.

See you tomorrow!

- Mum? - Yes, Mónica?

Hello? Wait a minute.

Is everything alright?

- Yes. Can you hear me? - Yes, I hear you perfectly.

I need your help.

Haven't you eaten yet?

I just got home, I'm about to eat.

How do I cook this? Should I wash it first?

You want to wash a steak?

No! You just have to season it.

What do you use?

A little lemon, some salt, a clove of garlic.

And a bay leaf, it's very good.

I don't have any of that here, Mum.

You look very nice in that jumper.

You like it?

I do.

It was there on the chair.

I took it. It's warm.

It suits you.

I'll cook the steak but no lemons or bay leaves.

At least I've got gas.

But add a pinch of salt, come on.

- Salt, of course. - Oh, my God.

Are you alright?

Yes, dear, I'm fine.

It's very cold.

They say worse weather is coming.

That's pretty much it.

- Well, try to keep warm. Kisses. - Look...

Milinha?

Oh, thank God you're here!

What happened?

Why was I left on my own?

I'll take care of it, don't worry.

Just my luck.

It wasn't me! It was the hot water bottle!

I thought it was something else.

Luckily you didn't get burned.

Let's get you out of here.

It'll be dry tomorrow. There's a bed in another room.

Not in another room!

You'll forget by tomorrow where you slept.

The bedrooms are here to be used.

It'll be dry by tomorrow.

Come on, Milinha.

Easy does it.

I don't know what would've become of me if you hadn't turned up.

There.

A bit further back.

That's it!

Right.

You're too tough to break.

I don't believe it!

You got these for me?

I can't eat all this sweet food.

It's just a little sin, Milinha. Some days are special.

Today is the day for São Gonçalo penis pastries!

These plates.

This tea cup.

That was senhora Aida's favourite teapot!

Was it?

Ana, this is wrong.

We shouldn't be using these.

But they're so pretty.

And they were smiling at me.

Things are meant to be used.

Come on, eat up.

It's so good!

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

I'm sorry, Milinha.

It's all right.

Up!

Wait just a bit more.

Just a bit, Milinha. Wait.

Now.

There.

- Is that good? - Yes.

- It's not too hot? - No.

- Are you okay? - Yes.

Do you prefer this one?

Here.

Give me your arm, Milinha.

Would you like to lie back and relax?

I'll help you.

Yes?

There.

Hi!

I'm Cátia Ribeiro, this is the Botica house, right?

Yes, senhora.

I'm from Marão Homes, the real estate agency.

I've come to take photos for the sale.

The sale?

Senhora Manuela didn't mention anything!

I know nothing about this. And they're not here.

I've been speaking to a Luís...

Mr Pedro?

Exactly, Mr Luís Pedro.

He's the one who asked me put it on our website.

He doesn't own this place!

Come back when senhora Manuela says so.

Wait! Can't I come in?

Didn't they tell you I'd be coming today?

Or if it's really like this

There's always music in me

Don't you cry when sorrow hurts

Raise your voice and sing a song

Any song is magical

There's a joy in music

That resonates inside you

There's always music between us

No, don't cry, raise your voice

We'll sing until the break of dawn

There's always music between us

When we sing, we're not alone

We'll sing until the break of dawn

You've been here for several days.

Shouldn't we get some air?

Shall we go out?

Come on, Milinha,

let's get you up!

Can we do that?

I'll change the sheets, make the bed nice and fresh.

Do you need to pee, Milinha?

How about we go to the bathroom?

That way, we can get you up.

Shall we?

Ready?

Let's go.

I'll be right back, Milinha, okay?

Let me just close the door.

Milinha,

look who's here.

Ms Emília?

Ms Emília?

Hello, dear friend.

How are you?

I've come to pamper you, Ms Emília.

We'll wash your hair.

It'll make you feel much better, Ms Emília.

A whole lot better.

Well, Milinha?

Lu came especially from Marco... Come on!

Look, Ms Emília...

You remember our massages?

When you'd to come to the salon,

we'd chat and joke.

Oh, my dear friend.

Let me take care of you!

Right, Ms Emília.

Ms Emília, it'll do you good. Look what I brought.

Just like the old times!

Come on, Milinha.

Look, let's try it like this.

I'll go, all right?

And when you're feeling better...

Okay, dear friend?

Ana can call me again.

Alright?

Kisses.

Oh, Lu, I'm so sorry about this.

Not at all.

- I'll pay for the haircut. - No.

The money's not the issue.

I just had no idea she was so ill.

Thank you, Lu.
