HELP WANTED

SALES EXECUTIVE

Boss!

I kept an eye on your car, sir.

-All good?

-All good.

Great.

-Thanks a lot, boss.

-Thank you.

Drive safe.

What's up? How's it going?

Not much work, man. Where's Maya?

Still putting up posters of Lalo.

We're worried sick, man.

sh*t, dude.

It's from Querétaro.

Alexis?

That as*h*le? I doubt it.

Hello?

Yes, he's speaking.

Sorry, yes. I'm still here, yeah.

Yes, of course.

What happened? Everything okay?

My granny.

She's dead.

Are you ready?

I don't wanna go.

He's your best friend.

I doubt he wants to see me.

Plus, everyone will be there.

You can't hide here forever.

-They all think I'm a coward.

-No!

Sometimes it's necessary to feel fear.

It prepares you for bigger things.

Come on.

This roll is delicious.

What? I got the munchies.

You smoked?

Just a little.

Funerals make me nervous, bro.

-I'm so sorry, Charly.

-Good evening.

We're here for you.

-Thanks.

-Whatever you need.

Thank you, ma'am.

Congratulations, I mean…

Forgive me, I'm so sorry.

-Thanks.

-I'll put these…

Sorry for your loss.

-Right.

-Charly?

Charly.

I'm Charly.

I knew you were special,

but not what kind of special.

I'm Roberta.

The director of Sunset Nursing Home.

On behalf of everyone in the nursing home,

accept my deepest sympathies.

Thank you so much.

And we promise, as of now,

peanuts are banned in the game room.

I brought your granny's belongings and…

these flowers.

-Allow me.

-Thank you.

Thanks.

Charly, I need you

to sign these papers, please.

Over here.

Maybe over there.

What's up with you?

Not much. You?

Can we talk?

What's up?

In private.

Is that Johanna? You two back together?

No.

That'll be all.

-That's all?

-Yes.

Did she leave me anything?

Your granny?

No, did you think she would?

You have nothing to say to me?

About what?

About what?

That's it? You left,

and are never coming back?

Hey, he's not going back to you.

-What?

-He's doing fine.

You won't convince him.

What is your deal, Mr.?

We're just talking.

Remember, we're at a funeral.

You're a danger to him.

Alexis, do you think

we're a danger to you?

A little.

Maybe.

Alexis, nothing that you're implying

scares me.

Nothing.

What've you got to say, dude?

-Nothing?

-Say something!

I don't…

I don't know if I can do this.

That's okay.

You don't have to say anything.

You can do it, as*h*le!

Let's go.

Right, it's my grandma's funeral.

I'm not the one who should go.

What are the chances

that an ophthalmologist

and a photographer have a son who's blind?

These things happen randomly, Lolis.

But it happened to us.

And what did we do?

This.

What a good parent would do.

Try anything.

No matter how absurd or ridiculous it was.

That's what we both did.

Didn't we, Yuyo? In our own way.

I failed him.

Yes.

But not because

you didn't fix his problem,

but because you made him think

he had a problem.

And not only him.

It's their turn

to watch out for each other.

We need to let them, Yuyo.

That's the best we can do as parents.

Hi, crooked followers.

I know I haven't posted much recently.

I haven't had much to say.

Until now.

For some strange reason,

people like stealing my crutches.

It's been three pairs this year.

Anyway.

I can't afford to buy a new pair.

I made this video with a link

for those who want to chip in.

I'd appreciate it.

Thanks a lot, crooked followers.

Charly?

May I?

Pleased to meet you, my name is

José Humberto Gómez Gómez,

attorney at law.

I'm from Notary 266 in Querétaro.

Notary Zúñiga sent me.

This is concerning the matter

about your grandmother's,

Mrs. Carmelita's, will.

Will? I was told she didn't have anything.

Oh yeah, there was a mistake.

It's been sorted out.

Your grandmother

left you this bag of money.

And this letter.

I just need you

to sign some documents.

Here you go.

Do you happen to know

how much money it is?

It's only… 209,352 pesos.

But she left them to you

with lots of love.

Two hundred and nine thousand?

Plus 352 pesos.

Thank you so much, sir!

Well, congratulations.

Thanks.

I mean…

I'm sorry for your loss.

-Goodbye, then.

-See you.

So long.

Hello.

Hello. How much?

May I have two, please.

-Hello.

-She's talking to you, as*h*le.

To me?

The lady wants some candy.

Thanks.

Have a nice day.

I hadn't heard you speak before.

No?

But I feel like I know your voice.

Me too.

Where have I heard you?

I don't know.

Sorry, I don't hang out with blind people.

What's your name?

Alexis.

Hey, don't tell me you're Alexis Alexis.

Like Duran Duran?

Are you the famous Alexis?

Famous?

The one who went to Mexico City

and made it across Central Avenue.

The one who gave a conference

at a university.

And survived being hit by a car.

And fooled a bar owner

to hire him as a barman.

Wait, what?

I heard he participated

in a stand-up contest.

Yeah, and fell flat on his face.

That's me.

The one who went

to Mexico City and failed.

-What the f*ck, man?

-What do you mean you failed?

What you call failure

is something we can only dream about.

We're not like you.

But you make me feel

there are other possibilities,

that I can do other stuff.

How do you know all this?

We follow you on YouTube.

Well, not you, Crooked Charly.

-You haven't seen his posts?

-No.

All he talks about is his disability.

I'm sick of it.

Actually, all he talks is about you. Look.

The whole channel is about you.

Here goes our champ

on his first day of work.

Alexis never gives up

even in the worst of storms.

He's my best friend.

An ordinary person.

Or extraordinary.

All the videos are about me?

Except the last one.

-The last one? Why?

-Don't watch it. You don't need to.

Dad?

Son.

I thought

this was what was best for you…

to come home…

and live a peaceful life.

But…

it was only…

what was best for me.

I'm the worst dad in the world.

I'm the worst son, Dad.

We're made for each other.

Hey, I need help.

I need to talk to Charly.

I know.

That's why I brought your stuff.

Let's go.

How much is the candy?

Ten pesos each.

Here are 500 pesos.

Let's go, son.

It'll be fine here.

In the fridge?

It's fine here.

-Won't the money get wet?

-Of course not.

-It'll freeze.

-It won't.

At least it won't spoil.

-Okay.

-That's it.

Done.

Hello!

-What are you doing here?

-I came to…

I wanted to apologize.

I came to apologize.

-Thanks.

-Yeah.

Apologize for what?

For abandoning me here

or for being a jerk to Azul?

Or for betraying yourself?

That's easy. You can forgive yourself.

How about the other two options?

The second will be hard. Azul's gone.

-Where?

-To Spain.

She was invited to a freestyle contest.

She came back from Querétaro

and went to the contest.

Besides, she said she was going to vanish.

-What did she say? "Permanently."

-Yes.

That only leaves one option.

Am I exactly in front of you?

No.

Turn over to your left a bit.

I know the people

you trusted the most abandoned you.

I know it's hard for you

to trust me again.

But I promise

I'll never leave you by yourself again.

I thought the goal of our trip was

to know what was on the other side

of the fence, but no,

it was to jump over the fence,

to know that we could jump over it,

to show others that they can jump over it!

I can't even jump two steps, Alexis.

Metaphorically, idiot!

I know you're speaking metaphorically.

We got a few scrapes,

but we jumped over the fence, Charly.

We know that we can do anything,

and that's what we'll do.

We're a family, Charly.

We're not a team. We're family.

Forgive me, man.

Funny you came to say this,

because my granny

left me a letter and 200,000 pesos.

What?

Turns out my granny

had money stashed away.

She left it to me with a letter.

-Show me.

-Look.

Sit your cheeks down.

"Dear Charly,"

"If you're reading this letter,

it's because I'm dead."

"There's no need to feel sad,

such are the cycles of life."

"I know you lost your family once,

but you can always find a new one."

"And that new family

may be closer than you think."

"It's not a lot of money,

but I trust you'll know how to use it

when you find that family

to start something new together."

You're not exactly the family I expected,

but you're the family I have.

Besides buying some awesome crutches,

I know exactly how

I'm gonna spend this money.

Why the hell would I partner up

with you two?

Because you'll never be allowed

to open another bar in this city.

Do you know how many associations

and people are against you?

You need us on your side.

We know you can't even pay

that stack of fines you got.

We happen to have the cash.

We're talking about an 80/20 split, right?

Fifty-fifty is our final offer.

Plus, it's a different concept.

Different how?

Bravo!

Hello, sir. Good afternoon.

This is for you.

Brother! What's up?

Look, Disca Club is for you.

Completely disca-friendly.

Need a ride?

Hell yeah!

STAND-UP SHOW

DISCA CLUB - A CLUB FOR EVERYONE

A CLUB FOR EVERYONE

EVERY GENDER

Hey, stop!

MISSING: EDUARDO MARTÍNEZ GÓMEZ

FOUND

DISCA CLUB - ALL INCLUSIVE

That's right!

Yes!

Great!

-Let's get ready for the opening.

-Yeah.

Whatever you do,

don't fall off the f*cking stage.

You hear me?

Good evening!

It's a pleasure for me to welcome you

to this new space.

I must confess

that I didn't get it at first.

But…

now that I'm looking at all of you,

each one of you,

I think I'm starting to understand.

I never thought I'd say this,

but let me welcome a friend of mine.

Charly, would you do me the honor?

Let's go, Charly!

Sorry about the delay.

I'd like to introduce

the next comedian of the night,

tonight's star comedian.

The one and only

Alexis "Little Egg Eyes!"

Bravo!

Bravo!

Good evening, how are you all?

Good!

Thanks for being here.

It's great to see a full house.

I see lots of familiar faces.

Who's here for the first time?

-I am!

-Me!

You know I can't see, right?

I was asked not to improvise,

but that's all I know what to do.

It's what I do

all day offstage to survive.

When you have a disability,

you learn to improvise

in order to negotiate the simplest things.

Once I posed as a conference speaker.

I found the dumbest dog

to pose as my guide dog.

And I let him drag me

across the street to be hit by a girl.

All for a blind date!

Sorry.

Yeah, that's how we blind people flirt,

improvising along the way.

sh*t, I couldn't move for days.

But it was worth it.

Every scrape was worth it.

Going out on the street

is always an adventure.

I can't stand on a corner

without some b*stard

helping me cross the street.

But nobody cares where you're going

or if you even need to cross.

That's how I got to this city.

I was only going to the store

and ended up being groped by everyone,

and passed like a relay torch.

That's how I reached this place,

to learn that I'm neither Black

nor a good barman,

or even worthy of being mugged.

At first, this city terrified me.

But it's not that big

when you turn your back on it.

It also terrified me that I wasn't

extraordinary in what I wanted to do.

But the best part is

I discovered that I'm not extraordinary.

Because I discovered that you can't be

extraordinary without being ordinary.

That's what I am, an extraordinary person

with a missing piece.

Merely ordinary.

Very ordinary.

Extraordinary.

And that's fine.

Yeah, that's fine.

I see why it's funny.

I'm Alexis "Little Egg Eyes!"

And you're

the most ordinary audience ever!

Thanks and good night!

-Bravo!

-Thanks!

-See you soon!

-Bravo!

Little Egg Eyes!

I need to find Azul. Excuse me.

Hello.

Don't say anything.

I'm an idiot. Let's begin there, okay?

I got scared.

Losing you in the dark wasn't easy.

I don't know if you get it?

It's hard to walk fearlessly

when you know something's gonna hit you.

But I want this to hit me in the face.

Alexis.

You think I'm not scared?

All my life I've been pretending

that I'm not petrified inside.

What scares me about you is

that you don't feel the same way about me.

That's why I went away.

Because I thought

I'd get over you, but I couldn't.

Then I thought I had nothing to lose.

Maybe, if I came back

and asked you directly…

you'd feel the same way as I do.

Since the second I heard your voice,

I knew this was where I belonged.

You are where I belong.

Maybe we could be friends.

Or have a dog or something, right?

Or something.

It's not easy living with a disability,

living with someone who has a disability,

finding your place in a hostile world

when everyone says

you're missing something.

But when you find that place

where you fit in perfectly,

and understand that what made you find it

is what makes you unique,

you discover that it's truly incredible

to go out into a world

with a missing piece.

And the total money raised is…

Three hundred sixty-four million,

nine hundred seventeen thousand,

five hundred sixty-four pesos!

Congratulations!

I'm so happy for you!

Thank you.

That's not it. There's a funnier one

where they don't make their goal.

No sh*t!

There's one where they don't make it?

It's the saddest thing ever, dude.

The total money raised this year is…

I think I found it.

Two hundred fifty-four million,

five hundred eighty-five thousand

eight hundred pesos.

f*ck, dude,

I wish they could see our faces!

I had a vision last night.

-A vision?

-About us.

You can't see sh*t.

I saw us doing big things.

In Querétaro?

A blind guy and his cerebral-palsy friend?

Important things!

You and I are destined

to do big things, Charly.

It never occurred to me.

Let's conquer the world.

The world is ours.

Jeez!

We brought you a little gift, a surprise,

to heal the wounds, you know?

Lalo, give me a hand!

Help me.

There you go.

Here you go, as an apology.

-We stole it from a party.

-Yes.

You're still stealing?

We make exceptions for good causes.

We'll get you chairs later.

Cha-cha…

cha-cha, chairs.

Okay.

-Hey, have you seen Chocho?

-No.

No.

-Gimme that.

-Hey, wait.

You dogs!

-Do you know him?

-No.

Help!

Do you know where Chocho lives?

No.

Buddy, you can change.

Here, give me a call.

-No way!

-What the hell?

-Dude, what's wrong with you?

-Sorry.

-I didn't know you were here, sorry.

-Beat it!

I told you to leave

your walking stick at the door!

Hashtag.

Blind people can't see exploitation!

-That hurt!

-Sorry, Ale. I only saw the curtain.

Johanna? What are you doing here?

Hi! I came to rescue you, Ale.

-I'll help you grab your stuff.

-No, hey.

Joh, take it easy.

-We can't be here.

-Joh.

You can't do this, Alexis!

-We need to go right now.

-Johanna.

-What?

-Relax.

You're okay now? Listen.

I know you think

everything you're doing is for the best.

But it isn't.

One day you'll get it. I promise.

Are you ready to…?

to go see the show,

to see the show out there

with the audience.

Go on.

Outside, at the tables. Outside.

Out there.

Are you ready, bro?

-Always!

-That's the attitude!

Grab on to me.

Let's go.

You know what you're gonna say?

-I have my Braille cheat sheet with me.

-Good.
