01x03 - Marcos is Going to Love This

[bunniefuu]

HAPPY RETIREMENT
GREGORIO

[in Spanish] Gregorio started
at the hospital as a surgeon.

[Miranda] He was a great one.

[laughs] Years later,
he became a wonderful sports doctor.

That was like 15 years ago, or 100.
I don't remember.

Today, that rebellious doctor
and great colleague is retiring

as director of the hospital.

[Miranda] Bravo, bravo.

-Congratulations.
-Thank you, thank you.

[guest] We once had to operate,
and it couldn't be postponed

and Mr. Gregorio, in the flesh,
also couldn't postpone

watching Racing in the Super Cup final.

A 21-year dry spell. How could I miss it?

He had us grab a TV

from under a pile of stuff
in the nurse's room

while defending with a scalpel.

He had me go and get it.

[Gregorio] It's true.

[guest] Surgery lasted
as long as the game.

[guest 2] I was the scrub nurse,

and you had me hold on to the TV antenna
during the whole surgery. [laughs]

[guest] While I was sewing up,
he screamed, "Goal!" [laughs]

That day,
two of my many loves came together.

[spouse] Oh.

Doctor, how many loves do you have?

-Health...
-[spouse] Uh-huh.

...and my dear Racing Club.

And tomorrow I'll watch them win
another championship.

We'll see.

-Yes. Cheers. Thank you.
-[all] Cheers.

-[Gregorio] Cheers, friends.
-Cheers!

[guest laughs]

-[Gregorio gags]
-What are you doing?

-What's wrong?
-Quit clowning around.

It's not a joke. Gregorio, please. No!

-Gregorio, no. Oh, my God!
-[guest] Move over.

Call someone, call someone. Call!

-[cries] Gregorio!
-Come here.

Wait, let me move you.
That's it. Right there.

There it goes...

MARCOS IS GOING TO LOVE IT

We could text Clara, right?

No, I can't stay too much longer.

If we get this wedding,
we'll really need to be organized.

Actually, you know what?

I'll ask Arturo to help us
with accounting.

He is one of Dad's friends
and does everything perfectly.

Why didn't I think of him before?

If we don't make a single peso this time,
I'm going to start to worry.

We made a lot of money
with Kristoff, Malena.

-How much?
-Well, what we're putting together.

What are we putting together?
You're a mystery.

Are you here? Not here?
Are you staying? Not staying?

The wedding will be huge.
They want to do it outside Buenos Aires.

He's from Córdoba,
so maybe it'll be there.

But I just don't know where we're headed.

-Yes, that's why. Let's get the bill.
-I'm paying.

Obviously, I need to catch up
on all this, because...

-On what?
-...I'm behind lately...

-Nothing. Tomorrow.
-Mmm.

Send ideas to Sofía Kracht.

Drop a very obvious hint.
See what she says.

The whole team's waiting.

So we'll see.

-[cell phone chimes]
-Okay.

Mom - Call me back when you can.

Weird, it's so late.

What time?

Late. Let me know if you hear anything.

-Look at me, please.
-Yes.

-Let me know?
-Yeah.

-Okay. Perfect.
-Obviously.

[Malena] Okay.

[stranger] You want the bill
but I don't work here.

Just letting you know.

Hi, Ma. What's up?

What?

Ah, unbelievable.

That's awful. How sad.

That's bizarre too, right?

No, no, I get it...

No, with all due respect,
I don't think it's just because of the...

I'm sure it's something
I wouldn't know how to handle and...

It's a bit depressing.

A funeral home has to do that, not me.

No, Mom, forget it. Sorry, but no...

-[cell phone beeps]
-[Cali] I understand all your lies, Sofía.

But what you did is in bad taste.

I'm not offended, okay?

I'm hurt. I'm... I'm angry.

-And I'm offended too.
-[cell phone beeps]

f*ck you.

Sebastián?

Sebastián.

[cell phone vibrating]

Sánchez? What's up?

[whinnying]

[horse whinnies]

I can't believe it.
Cali Portman visiting her homeland.

-Eva! How's it going?
-Good!

[Eva] Oh!

Is this Tornillo?

-Tornillo.
-Hi! [kissing]

-[Eva] He's old, but he's my soldier.
-[chuckles]

Your dad called me. What's up?

Yes, we're a little worried.

He'll fill you in.
He's waiting for you at the stable.

-Okay, let's go.
-Let's go.

-[Cali] Can you hold this?
-Sure.

[equipment clattering]

[clicks tongue]

[cell phone beeps]

Cali, you drop this b*mb at 3:00 a.m.
and then don't answer?

Why do we talk about responsibility,
seriousness and certainty?

So many people are working on this.

Can you call me, please?
No, it's not a request. Call me.

[cell phone beeps]

What was a nightmare yesterday
is a great project today.

I wouldn't say a great project.

Death can't ever be a celebration, Mom.

I'll do it because I don't have a choice.

There are so many dumb ways to die,
but choking on an olive...

Spare me the autopsy details, okay?

No, no, there was no autopsy.

He spit it out when they were reviving him
in the middle of the event...

-I already regret this...
-...a tiny olive...

...and I'm leaving because I feel...

No, you can't go because I need you
and Gregorio needs you too.

You're the perfect person

for giving him a final farewell
in line with his great life.

Are you on something?

If he has a great wake, Male,

people will forget
about that stupid olive.

You're drugged,
and I have a feeling I can't do this.

I'm having a bad day, Mommy. No.

Look, Male, your day can't be worse
than Gregorio's, hmm?

So make the most of all your hidden energy

and use it for a noble cause like this.

You're great
at cheering people up, really.

I'm trying to make you react, Male.

If you don't do it for me or Gregorio,
do it for yourself.

Until that house is in your name...

No, don't start with the house again.
Please, not this again.

-Okay.
-Fine.

You'll make me look good.

[chuckles]

[Sánchez] Cali, I called you because
Lisandro doesn't seem well, you know?

He's been really nervous lately.

He went on about
the value of the drilling and the rig.

If it had electric fencing...

When he asked about the horses...

He can't touch the horses.
They're the only thing in my name.

Over the years, the mares had babies.

One was sold last December.

[horse whinnies]

Lisandro brokered the deal.

I think they'll be polo horses.

We might lease a neighbor's field

and see if they could take care of them
for a while.

Some of them owe your dad a few favors.

If you let me...

Yeah. Yeah, let's do that.

Sounds good to me.

Uh, Eva is cooking up something for lunch.
Can you stay?

-Should I, Hércules?
-[laughs]

I'll stay.

-Sounds good.
-Let's go.

[Sánchez] Let's.

-What is she making?
-Homemade pasta.

[Cali] Oh.

Well, the level of heartburn I deal with...

I've never had heartburn
quite like this before.

[on phone] Luciano really doesn't care.

He said it's going to happen.
He'll stop by later, but...

Is it wrong if I hate him for it?
I don't know. I want to separate.

[Ray] Listen, Julieta.

This party is for you,
your mom, your friends...

Yes, and for the dad.

Why don't you focus on what I sent you?

The decorations.
A lot of baby or not so much baby, hmm?

Okay.

Wait, I have to let you go.
I have to go. Ciao.

[Marcos] I wanted to take this opportunity
to introduce you to a new agency strategy.

We're going back to social media.

Okay.

I got a call... well, we got a call
to plan a very big wedding.

A splashy one.

But, as Flor said, we're slammed.

And Malena isn't here.

So, we need more planners.

That's why I want to hire
an essential person for this team.

Mm-hmm. Delfi.

-Hey.
-Hey.

-How are you?
-Fantastic.

Good morning.

Well, for those of you who don't know her,
this is Delfina Finisola.

I imagine you know her
from her social media.

Yes.

-And she worked with Coqui for many years.
-Of course.

This is Micaela, yeah.

-[Delfi] How are you? It's been so long.
-Mica.

-[cell phone beeps]
-I can't believe you won't pick up.

I want you to know
you're abandoning me with a dead guy.

-Guys.
-Yeah?

[snaps fingers] Okay. Uh...

Death can actually be a celebration.

Right? I mean, when someone passes away,

it makes everyone else value
their lives more... or something like that.

That's what Virginia Woolf said
in her stories.

-I like Virginia Woolf.
-Yes, I love Virginia Woolf.

What I'm saying is that if we
take a funeral as the last step in life,

it can become the most important event
in someone's life story.

Way more than a wedding.
Way more than a bar mitzvah.

-So our next big event is a funeral?
-Yes.

-[Toni] And the wedding?
-It was canceled.

[Arturo] I'm with you.

I'd like a funeral.
It's more interesting than a wedding.

-Yes.
-Is he the funeral home guy?

No! This is Arturo, our accountant.

I don't know why I thought
I had introduced you before.

I'm here for whatever you need.

I want to say that a wedding and a funeral
are all the same to me.

Yeah. Thanks.

Well, let's change our attitudes because...

It's sad.

We were supposed to do something else
that got canceled and this is what it is.

Because, it's a funeral. And I need you.

-I need you.
-Who's the dead guy?

Gregorio Ezcurra,
the director of Malvinas Hospital.

-No budget problems.
-How did he die?

-[doorbell rings]
-He choked on an olive.

Are you kidding?

Respiratory arrest. From an olive.

I swear that events will rain down on us.
This is going to be a success.

[Andy] Let's work.

[whispers] Yes.

-It needs air.
-Ah.

-It's that office.
-Mmm.

-Time to talk?
-Mm-hmm.

I want to tell you something.

What happened?

My friend Julieta's baby shower is
in two days.

-Uh-huh.
-I'm going to mess it up.

Oh, Ray, please.
You manage events for over 500 guests.

-How many will this one have?
-Twenty.

You couldn't mess it up if you wanted to.
What's up?

Marcos called Delfina...

What's her name?

-Who?
-Delfina...

-Finisola?
-...Finisola.

No.

-...Delfina Finisola to work at Gutierrez...
-No, no.

...because he just got a huge wedding.

I can't believe you. He's such a jerk.

She f*cked him over so many times.
Do you remember?

-Of course.
-What did we talk about? No way.

No, you have to be a planner.

It's what you want.
Why didn't you tell him?

-We agreed. That's your job.
-No, no.

-You know it.
-I don't...

Don't let him be a jerk forever and ever.

I don't want to beg!

I don't need to beg at all!

Not to Marcos and not to anyone.
No begging. I don't deserve it.

No.

I need a favor, please.

Please, I'm begging. I'm begging, please.

A place to host the baby shower, but here.

I don't want to be seen at Gutierrez
doing a job for a friend.

No problem. This is your home.
Quit begging.

-Stop begging now.
-Okay.

-You can count on me. I'm here. And smile.
-Yes.

-I love you.
-Thanks.

I'm going to visit his widow.

Delfina Finisola, how low...

-[cell phone beeps]
-Lisandro.

I just saw Sánchez.
He told me about your texts.

What are you doing?
And why do it all behind my back?

[cell phone beeps]

Are you f*cking with me?

[cell phone beeps]

[birds twittering]

[cell phone beeps]

[Paulina] Please.

Well.

-As you can see, this is Gregorio.
-Mmm.

-A huge Racing fan.
-[Malena laughs]

And a sports fan. Every sport.

-You know he was a sports doctor.
-Uh-huh.

He pretty much stopped practicing
when he became director of the hospital.

-But he still kept some patients.
-Mmm.

Both men and women really appreciated him.

Ah.

People loved him.
He was a noble professional.

I care about your parents
and trust you are just like them.

Don't worry,
we'll plan something simple and warm.

-I trust your discretion.
-Mm-hmm.

I want to ask you something,
and don't let my son find out.

I'd like to keep him out of this.

Of course.

[writing]

-Miranda Aguirre.
-Mm-hmm.

Head of the hospital's
gynecology department.

-Okay.
-I'd like you to talk to her.

She's not invited.

She's not welcome in this house.

Understood.

Mmm.

-Excuse me.
-Mm-hmm.

Yes, it's all loaded.

-All right.
-Malena.

Malena,
listen to the full story first, please.

Sofía went with another agency.

Malena?

[Malena] Don't tell me important things
over voice message.

Then, you don't answer.
Do you know how many times I called you?

I messed up.
I was dealing with something important.

I'm here now.
Can you tell me what they were doing?

-Do you care?
-Of course I care.

What was the name of that catering company
up north that had good pastries?

-Varsovia. Vicente Lopez?
-That, Varsovia...

-Ray works here?
-Mm-hmm.

-Do you work here?
-No.

Yes.

-I don't work here.
-You do now.

On this.

I'm working on a wake.

Yeah, you heard me right.
A wake and burial.

-Everything's on track. Don't worry.
-And me?

Want to do something?
Help Ray with his baby shower.

-[whispers] It's tiny.
-Okay.

I'll help Ray with his birthday party.

But I'll keep repeating:
this wasn't my fault.

I talked with Sofía Kracht
and told her who we are.

The wedding that fell through
was Kracht-Bertarelli's?

Mm-hmm.

[Marcos] White fish with black butter.
Caviar, excellent.

[Marcos sighs]

Okay. Where were we?

Ah, what a d*ck.

[knocks]

[Marcos] Also, lamb sorrentinos. So good.

-[knocks]
-[Malena] Ow!

[glass cracking]

[Malena] Can you come here?

[Marcos sighs]

[manager] We can repair it,
but it'll have to be replaced eventually.

-Yes, yes.
-You'll have to take care of it.

Of course, yes.

-Hold on, I'll be right back.
-I'm so sorry.

You know what?

If you hit a window again and again,
the glass eventually breaks.

Ah, no, Marcos.
Oh, please, just stop being so pathetic.

Well, do you have something to tell me?
I'm in an important meeting.

You tell me.

You stole my wedding.
Will this be normal now?

-Are you going to steal all my jobs?
-Oh please, Male.

I didn't steal anything.
Don't make things up. That's just silly.

Do you think that doing one event
makes you an agency?

No, doesn't work like that.

If your projects fall through,
don't blame me.

Do you know what people want?
Security and experience.

You're a good liar.

The number of lies you've told me
over the years...

You just broke a window.
I don't feel like dealing with you now.

I'm going to tell you something
I've never told you before,

but I feel like telling you now.

And now, miss, your information, please.

Yes.

Yes, uh, he's going to give you his.

-Good afternoon.
-[manager] Good afternoon.

-Hi.
-How are you?

I'm Malena. I'm here to see Paulina.

Nice to meet you.
I'm Diego, Gregorio and Paulina's son.

Mom is sleeping, poor thing.
She's coming to terms with everything.

Yes, I can only imagine.

I should be doing this with her,
but I'll do it with you.

She needs to sign these papers.

Malena, I need to talk to you
about a sensitive topic.

-I think you could help me.
-Of course. Tell me about it.

My dad used to sing in a choir.

And there is a woman we need to stop
from coming to the wake.

[opera music playing]

Malena?

Yes, Miranda. How are you?
Nice to meet you. Thanks for seeing me.

No, please.

As I told you, I have a small request
on behalf of the family.

Please, is there any way
for you to not make an appearance

-at tomorrow's wake?
-Is this from Paulina?

-I imagine how hard...
-No, no worries.

I won't go.

Thank you. Mmm.

[opera music continues]

[Malena] Laura?

Excuse me, I'm Malena Carregal.
I texted you.

Do you have a minute?

[Malena] Thank you.

[opera music continues]

-Malena, excuse me.
-Yes?

Uh, no flower crowns.
I forgot to tell you. I don't like them.

-Okay, no problem. I'll get rid of them.
-Yes.

Why don't you go rest a little?
It's going to be a long day.

Okay. Thank you, darling.

Get rid of the crowns.

-Listen, get rid of the crowns.
-What?

Take them away. She doesn't want them...

The people who sent them will want to see.

When I ask for things, listen, please.

-Yes.
-Do it. Tell the guys too.

[scoffs]

Thank you.

Malena, uh, Andy sent you this.

Ah.

Can you stay, please?
I have a problem. It's serious.

Yes, yes, I'm here.

Mm-hmm. Thank you.

[Julieta]
You know this person already has nails?

And hair. And two fully formed lungs.

There's no way it'll come out
without breaking me.

[Ray] What you're telling me
is fascinating.

Aren't you going to a class that
teaches you how to give birth pain-free?

Yes, I'm doing one.
They teach you how to breathe.

I know how to breathe.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be here.

-Listen.
-What?

I wanted to set up this living room

-at the back of the yard.
-Uh-huh.

-So now that you're sitting here...
-[laughs]

...like a complaining cow,

should I pick it all up and move it?

-Do you want me to leave you alone?
-[laughs] No.

What's up? Everything is going to be okay.
You're going to have a beautiful baby.

Okay. You're great.
I love what you are doing for me.

-It's nice.
-Yes, really nice.

Thanks, best godfather in the world.
I'm not the one saying it.

That's why you chose me,
so I'd organize everything for free.

-[Julieta] Maybe a little.
-[vibrates]

Listen, are there any snacks I can eat?
And by "any," I mean something starchy.

Catering isn't here yet?

Ah, he's orange.

Why would they do his makeup like this?
Does he look orange to you?

Yeah, he kinda looks like a clown.

Come on.

What should I do with...

[Malena] Okay. [groans]

And they put a red tie on him. Okay.

Okay. On the count of three.
One, two, three, go.

[grunts]

[assistant] When Andy told me to help you,

he told me that you didn't remember me.

-Did he tell you that?
-Yes.

Of course I remember you. [chuckles]

-Oh.
-No, no. This is as far as I can go.

You do the eyes.

Okay. Okay.

It's important to not think about it.
Mmm? Don't think.

[shouts] f*cking hell...

Amelia, listen, I'm still worried.

You won't answer my texts.
Are you running late?

Raichu. How are you?

Worried.

Something's missing in the vibes, man.

-Like what?
-A little life.

Life?

You hung that wrong.

I'm going to get something from the truck.

No, Dramón!

Poor Paulina.

-How are you? [clears throat]
-[Malena] Hello.

-How's it going?
-You okay?

-Uh, yes. Yes, I'm fine.
-Huh.

Verónica, my mom.
This is Andy. He works with me.

-Andy Garrison, nice to meet you.
-Ah.

-[sobbing]
-[gasps] Oh, no.

I thought this could happen.
She wasn't convinced. I'll be back.

[Laura whimpers]

[Andy] Do you know her?

-[Laura] I'm very upset. I need...
-[Malena muttering]

Well, let's see. Excuse me.

[Laura blubbering]

[Laura sobbing] Please, let me go in.

[Malena] Why don't you take a seat here?

[Laura sobs] Forgive me, I need to go in.

[Ray sniffs]

[birds twittering]

-Did you rob a flower shop?
-Something like that.

Does Andy know about your skills?

-[whispers] Hide this right now.
-[Julieta] I love all of this!

What beautiful flowers!

-See?
-I love it.

[Cali] What's this?

I love it! Look at that belly!

-[Julieta] Have you given birth before?
-[Cali] No. No way.

You gave Paulina quite a long hug, huh?

Uh-huh.

Listen, that's what
we psychologists call projecting.

[laughing]

We were so young.
Those were other times, right?

Well, from what I heard,
we're still young. Right?

[both laugh]

-I like this sharp side of you, Lito.
-Thanks.

Thank you.

Shh. [whispers] Cheers. [laughs]

-[glasses clink]
-[both laugh]

Thank you. [sobs]

-[Malena] Do you feel better?
-[whimpers] No.

-I don't feel good either.
-You either?

I don't know, I feel... [groans, gags]

Excuse me, I get how you feel.
The problem is that they asked me...

Oh, no.

-Why did that woman come?
-I'm leaving.

Paulina's not talking about you.
No worries.

Please, get everybody out of here
for a little bit. Okay?

Right away, yes.

[guest] Congratulations!

No!

What do you mean
the catering was sent to Pilar?

No, I'm not Gutierrez.

Yes. I am Ray from Gutierrez.

But it's not for Gutierrez. No, no, no.

-This can't be happening. This can't...
-What happened?

There's no catering.
They sent it all to an event in Pilar.

-Are you stupid, Ray?
-It's Gutierrez's! I look stupid?

-You kinda do.
-That's what I'm wondering!

-Why are people here?
-I don't know...

But there aren't
any cookies or anything to eat!

-Calm down.
-I can't calm down! I need to take action.

-If you don't calm down, I'll leave.
-Okay, you go! I'll fix it myself!

You know what? You'll always be like this.

No, no, eat something else.
I suggest you try this. It's so good.

[Miranda sighs]

I came to say goodbye.
I think that's fair.

I'm humiliated you're here.

-Paulina.
-Don't think about it.

Don't even try.

I came to apologize too.

You have no shame, do you?

[sighs]

[Lito] I don't want to laugh. No, I can't...

Please. Don't make me laugh...

[Lito mumbling]

Malena? Can I grab a few things inside?

-Why are you here again?
-I need to get something.

-What thing?
-Doesn't matter. So?

-Yes, go ahead.
-Thank you.

-Where do you keep it?
-I keep it in...

This is a disaster.
Everything's gone wrong. I don't get it...

Wait, calm down.
Do you need anything? What can we do?

Nothing.

It's great to see you both here,
I love it. And you're not fighting.

But the event is perfect.
What could you be so worried about?

If you knew who that woman was,
the one with the widow,

you wouldn't say that.

-Miranda?
-That's Miranda, Male?

Yes, Paulina's friend.
She was her maid of honor, Male.

-No...
-[both] Yes!

-Oh, no!
-Yes, yes.

-That's terrible...
-Shh.

When I found out about you two,
I destroyed a painting.

[Miranda] Hmm?

Now I see it wasn't worth it.
It made no sense.

[laughs] Losing the painting?

Losing the painting.

Ah, Paulina, let it go. It's over.

We're adults. We're mature. Hmm?

Time changes how we see everything.
Let it go.

Mmm.

Not everything.

You forgave him, and not only for me.

Mmm, we forgave each other
for so many things throughout our lives.

But you...

you were my friend.

I'd never do to you what you did to me.

He was my family.

The love of my life.

[Malena] Paulina?

It's time.

It's over.

Relax.

-[Ray] Sorry about earlier.
-[Cali] It's over.

I lost control and everything turned red...

I'm telling you,
you saved me with everything you brought.

I'm going to tell Malena.

Just don't tell her
where the food came from.

-Done. Come on.
-Come on. Let's go.

[birds twittering]

[guests chattering]

Oh. [groans]

Oh.

Ah.

Ow.

-[liquid trickling]
-[gasping]

My water broke.

What do I do now?

[thunder rumbling]

[door rattling]

[grunts]

What happened? Is something wrong?

It seems like the door's stuck, ma'am.

Play the music, please. Now.

[violinist playing "La Vie En Rose"]

[thunder rumbling]

[performer singing in French]

[singing in French]

[Miranda sobs]

-[Ray, in Spanish] Open up.
-Yes, yes.

[song continues]

Okay, okay. Be careful.

-[panting]
-Here you go. There you go.

[song continues]

[guest speaks indistinctly]

[Julieta groaning]

And we need a name. Now.
