Post by bunniefuu »

-Get in!

-No, not me!

-I said, get in!

-No!

Help!

This has to be a mistake, please.

I don't have any money

or anything. Please.

Shut up!

Please! Please!

Cut!

He wasn't believable,

let's do it again.

-From the top.

-Okay.

Untie him for a minute.

HOW TO SURVIVE BEING SINGLE

So are you excited about your wedding?

I'm more concerned

about what it's costing me.

We can still sabotage

Operation "Jaw Berry."

Jaureguiberri. Say it right

or Mafer will get pissed.

I keep forgetting it.

Pretend you like girlie things for 10 minutes.

Don't screw this up.

I won't screw this up!

I'm Team Dafer until the apocalypse.

I just think there are

other wedding planners out there.

No way. Mafer's heart is set on him,

and I'm not going to k*ll her dream.

I'm giving her that wedding,

whatever the cost.

You're such a warrior.

"Whatever the cost."

SUCCULENT GIRLS

KINKY ALICE

Oh, man.

-Oh, man!

-Hi, guys.

What do you feel like

doing to me today?

I'm

I'm all wet.

Who wants a private session

with me today?

Me, me. Coming!

Coming! Coming!

The Gonzo.

Gonzo.

Sorry about this, Gonzo.

You'd get it.

Okay, okay, okay.

Thank you

Big Fish!

You're welcome.

Thanks to you,

this schoolgirl will be able

to go back to school.

Is this what you do to pay

for your schooling, Alice?

Yes.

A good education is the foundation

for a better future, Alice.

What scene was this for?

Because I didn't see it in the script.

No. It's a projection exercise

that Farré likes to do

to awaken your animal instincts.

The blood is so realistic.

Congratulations, the effect is excellent.

It's lamb's blood.

Are you all right?

-I understand the process

-Good.

but I would have liked

to know beforehand

so I could prepare.

-Then there's no point, really.

-Right.

m*therf*cker!

-Rats, dude!

-Yeah.

-I hate rats!

-Yeah, we knew that.

Yeah.

Hello?

Hi, Sebastián, it's Julieta.

Julieta? How are you?

I'm sh1tting you, idiot.

Poker night at my place tomorrow.

Are you coming?

-f*ck you, Gonzo!

-Is that a yes?

-See you tomorrow.

-Bye.

Thanks for coming with me, buddy!

It's fine.

I like to study self-oppressive patterns

in Mexican females.

-Study this self-oppressive pattern!

-Okay, sorry.

-I won't f*ck it up, I swear.

-Thanks.

I don't know what I'll do

when the book is finally in front of me.

-What book?

-Jaureguiberri's catalog.

It's basically the wedding bible.

Follow his Ten Commandments

or you may as well call off the wedding.

Tell me a commandment.

You can't serve chicken.

-No!

-Really.

They served roasted chicken

at the best wedding I ever attended.

But the smell

Jaure

Hi, girls, I'm glad you're here.

I was expecting you.

How beautiful.

You must be María Fernanda.

How beautiful.

You must be María Fernanda Azpe

Fuentes-Niño.

Are you related to the Fuentes-Niños

from Monterrey?

No.

So follow me.

I have to evaluate your profile.

Evaluate your profile?

Yes, evaluate her profile.

We don't have the luxury

of participating in just any event.

Of course.

Have a seat.

What would you like to drink?

-A brewski.

-No. There's no brewski.

-Two champagnes, please.

-Thank you.

This event is of the utmost importance.

-My boyfriend and I are

-Excuse me.

This is about the connection I have

with the bride.

I can create only if we are in sync.

Of course. You'll see that I know the book

practically by heart. I know all the

Just a moment.

This book is only for a few select brides.

-Is that supposed to be a compliment?

-Fabiana, please!

Forgive her, forgive her.

-She knows nothing about wedding planning.

-Coaching.

Why should I choose you

over that insufferable Bertha Salazar?

Because I'm not insufferable?

Do you know why

you aren't insufferable?

-No.

-Because your ideas are stale,

you're not evolving.

I don't think you're ready.

You'll stay in your comfort zone.

-You need to step it up

-Shut up, you turd.

-Fabiana!

-Sorry, you have to relax, asswipe.

You should be flattered

that she chose you.

Mafer's dreamed of her wedding

ever since she was 5.

For her, a wedding is the celebration

of a lifelong love.

It's intimate, personal,

not some industry or audition,

which is what you're turning it into.

Sorry, sorry. I didn't want to say it,

but it's too late now. I said it.

Finally, someone who understands

the essence of marriage.

María Fernanda Azpe Fuentes-Niño

are you ready to experience

the best day of your life?

Yes? Together, all the way

to "trash the dress."

What diet are you doing?

Daniel is doing keto, and I'm doing

the Peruvian celery detox and fasting.

-Yes. Okay.

-Add nopal cactus to it.

Okay? Good. My assistant will give you

the quote, okay?

Hans. Give them the quote, please.

Francesca, let's go.

Damn you.

You're an as*h*le!

But I love you.

I've been a very bad girl lately.

My parents kicked me out of the house,

and I feel so lonely.

Shucks, shucks.

It's funny sometimes how fate

brings two people together

who can get along so well so soon.

I had to move out

of my house too. I get you.

Feeling lonely is horrible.

-You know something? I think that

-What?

I deserve

a spanking.

No! No way, you don't.

Don't even say that.

-I don't?

-No. I'm not that kind of guy.

Believe me.

I follow a completely different road.

Really? Then how do you plan

on punishing me, professor?

Why would I punish you?

I really like you, Alice.

Oh, yes. I'm totally wet

from excitement.

I can't wait until you take me.

All right. I'm kind of

a little bit wet.

A little drop, perhaps.

Naughty.

You're naughty!

I know this may sound a bit weird, Alice,

because we've never met, but

I'm going to help you.

Yes, yes, yes.

Let's elope

and f*ck like crazy.

-"f*ck like crazy."

-First you have to make a deposit.

Cry, Sebastián. You have to connect

with your inner child.

What would you tell him

to draw out the inner child?

If I were the director,

I would tell him

What?

What? Please, tell me.

-Good one! I was thinking about it!

-Good one!

-Let's leave him like that!

-What?

-Welcome! Thank you so much!

-See you!

Director, sir?

-Take him out in an hour.

-Ferré?

How would you react

if I asked Lucía on a date?

What are you talking about, brat?

How old are you?

Easy First, I've lived

much more than you have.

And I have to tell you something,

good luck with Adán He is crazy.

San San-- San!

Get me out of here.

When is this exercise ending?

We've been here four hours.

Adán?

Don't worry. Talk to Daniel,

explain the quote to him.

I can't, he's going to k*ll me.

He'll k*ll me.

I'll plan it.

A small, intimate wedding.

-Tiny.

-Look.

Nothing would make me happier

than you not paying that phony.

But you know Daniel,

he'll do everything he can

to give you the wedding

you've always dreamed of.

I don't want it to be

more about the money than about us.

Finally, someone who understands

the essence of marriage.

-Okay, who saved you in there?

-You!

-Who saved you?

-Big time!

For f*ck's sake.

Thanks, doc.

What happened to you?

Nothing. I was lying down in the trailer

and a rat bit me.

What?

What do you mean,

a rat bit you?

Adán put rats in my trailer.

You know Adán's methods.

What methods?

The kidnapping?

The rats in my trailer?

The cage, the virgin lamb's blood?

Nobody else?

Really? I'm

I'm the only one?

He hasn't done that to you?

No.

You think he doesn't like me?

No, he probably demands more from you

because you're the main actor

and he knows you can handle it.

Of course.

Yes, yes, that must be it.

Relax. You're doing a good job.

YOU ARE NOTHING!

I told you, we can't pay for it.

Forget it.

I'll plan it,

I'll design everything,

something small, intimate,

only friends.

-Who needs a tent with vines dropping down

-Dear.

-a carpet of roses

-Dear.

the choir of schoolboys singing

in French and Swahili?

-It's so pretty.

-We can do it. Okay?

We have some savings,

I'm expecting excellent commissions,

and I'll borrow the rest from my dad.

You've never asked him for money.

You're not going to start now.

This is different, it's a loan.

No

There will be

a lot of strings attached.

Why go there now?

You've always avoided it.

Let's say that could be

his wedding present to us.

-Seriously?

-Yes.

Make the first payment,

we'll schedule the rest and have fun.

You're going to be the prettiest bride

in the neighborhood.

Hi, sweetie. How are you?

Can you talk for a second?

Of course I can, captain!

What should I do

to go up to the bridge?

Captain? Wasn't I your professor?

Whatever.

The plan is practically done,

I just need to turn in some papers at the bank,

-but we're practically set.

-What for, dude?

I love you, Spocky.

Alice, this is serious,

for God's sake. Listen to me.

DrSpocky69!

You're so generous today!

Listen.

Alice, who is that idiot DrSpocky69?

Are you talking to somebody else?

There are a lot of other sailors

on this ship, captain.

It really turns me on

when you call me captain.

I know.

Alice, we're off to Cartagena,

just like I promised. You and I!

Oh, no. That's enough.

See you later, captain.

No! What do you mean,

"see you later"?

Don't go, we're talking about

something important for our future!

Hi, son.

Hi, Dad, how'd it go?

Fine. We beat them.

Very good.

So, what's up?

Nothing, I came to tell you

that Mafer and I are engaged.

Really?

How are you paying

for the wedding

on the sh*t salary you get

from those clowns, the Arizas?

Aren't you going to congratulate me?

Of course, son.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Did you know that with a bonus from our firm,

you could pay for the wedding,

the honeymoon and even place

a down payment on an apartment?

I came to ask you for a loan,

but I realize you'll throw it

in my face for the rest of my life.

Listen, son.

I'll lend you the money

just as long as you quit working

for my competition and come work here.

Here we go again, Dad.

The same old story.

I don't know why

it's so hard for you to accept

that you'll have your life settled

working for me.

You wouldn't have to worry

about bullshit.

And I don't know why it's so hard for you

to understand that I don't want to.

I'm not responsible for the legacy

of the Lebrija name.

Why do you insist

on living through me?

sh*t, I'm here to share my engagement

and my joy with you, and it doesn't sink in.

Don't worry, Dad.

I'll send you your invitation.

-What's up, honey?

-How'd it go?

-He's excited about the wedding.

-Really?

Okay. So, what did he say,

is he going to help us?

Who's going to have

a Jaureguiberri wedding?

f*ck yeah!

You're the best.

You're incredible, seriously, the best.

Thank you so much.

The best for the best bride.

You're incredible.

I love you. Bye.

Did you check my credit history?

No, f*ck. You're sinking in debt,

give me back my cards.

-Mine too, dude.

-Okay, okay.

Sebastián, this is a good time to tell you

that I took 100 pesos this morning.

Come on, man.

Sorry, sorry, man.

I really need to help Alice.

Kinky Alice.

The cam girl you jack off to?

You have some serious problems.

-That's what the credit is for? To jerk off?

-Dudes

That's not what it's for.

I want to get her out of that lifestyle.

She hates having to put up

with all those sickos every day.

Why can't you see

that all I want

is to give her what her parents

couldn't give her?

Did she ask you to take her out of that

or to pay for her tuition?

No. Not in so many words,

she didn't ask me for that.

But, man,

I know she isn't happy there.

I know her,

she's my girl, dude.

If you pay to see her boobs,

she's not your girl, dude. You're her client.

-Boom!

-Okay.

Did "Jaw Berry" accept you

as clients?

Jaureguiberri, dude.

Say it right, Mafer will get pissed.

-Mafer isn't here.

-But yeah.

The son of a b*tch sent us a quote

as if he were doing Luis Miguel's wedding.

I told you, weddings last

eight short hours

and then you regret the expense

for the rest of your boring life,

living in a cardboard box

in a damn suburb.

I get anxious thinking

about your future.

But I'm going to have the best time

at your wedding,

even if it's the stupidest decision.

Let me tell you what a wedding is.

It's not a fancy party where you get bombed

and wear your best clothes.

It's the celebration of two people

who decided to stay together

for the rest of their days.

It's of huge relevance.

They choose to assume

that commitment

in front of all the people

who are important to them.

Do you realize what it is?

It's not a celebration

between two people,

it's a celebration of love, for love.

It's a celebration of life, you idiot.

-No, dude.

-That's not it.

It's just that Mafer has her heart

completely set on Jaureguiberri.

I'm not taking that dream

away from her.

Okay. You can look at it

that way too.

But can you write that down for me

to read at the wedding?

-Right!

-Of course!

Is Mafer bitching again?

What did we say about calls?

No, it's from the office.

I have to go back.

-You're sh1tting us!

-Come on, dude!

-Yes, whatever I can get.

-This is our poker night, you can't go.

I need all the overtime to pay for it.

See what I mean?

Weddings destroy friendships. Damn traitor!

ARIZA STOCK EXCHANGE GROUP

Ariadna, what's so important?

The investors from Monterrey

will be here early tomorrow

and Billy isn't answering his phone.

-What do we have to do?

-We have to polish up the presentations

and add the five-year projection.

Fine. I'll take care of it.

-Thanks a lot, Daniel.

-You're welcome.

Call me if you need me for anything.

Don't worry, no problem.

-Thanks.

-So long, Dan.

-Thanks. Bye.

-Likewise, bye.

-Hi, honey. Is everything okay?

-Hi, sweetie.

Fine, but I'll have to stay

at the office all night.

Hey, I just made a considerable donation,

it's nothing huge,

but I can promise to donate

that amount every month

until you have enough money

to get out of this line of work.

I told you I'd give you

what your parents couldn't.

My parents?

Let's see.

What are you talking about?

When we met, you said

that you were sad and depressed

because your parents kicked you out

and you had to quit school.

So I said I'd help.

That's what I'm doing now.

-That was just role-playing, idiot.

-What?

Role-playing.

I played along,

which is what I do with all my clients.

-Maybe I haven't made myself clear.

-I do this out of choice. Okay?

I studied marketing and acting,

I got a boob job,

all so that I could create my own brand

and be my own boss.

I make 50 times

more than what you donated, don't fret.

What are you saying, Alice?

I feel like I don't know you, Alice.

Come on.

I bought two tickets to Cartagena.

What do you mean? I'm broke.

Alice!

You can't do this to me.

I'm deeply in love with you.

I'm doing this to help, come on!

You're the one who needs help here.

Find a f*cking psychiatrist.

KINKY ALICE

OFFLINE

What a crazy guy.

Fifty times?

That's a lot of dough, f*ck.

Daniel! Did you stay all night?

Yeah.

-The investors are coming.

-Is Billy here? He never answered his phone.

It was Dealer Wednesday,

he must be strung up.

The presentation is ready,

and we'll close the deal today.

-Sorry, but you look terrible.

-Thanks a lot.

I keep an extra suit for Billy

for emergencies.

-Come, you can wear it.

-Sure thing.

Time is a mirage.

Space is nothing.

The vortex is

the root of acceleration

Cut. Try it again, from there.

Yes, sir.

Any observations, maestro?

You're right there,

you tell me.

Time is

m*therf*cker! Cut, please!

sh*t, this guy just doesn't get it!

Get him a cup of coffee or something!

m*therf*cker! Cut, please.

He can't do it. Get him a cup of coffee.

More overtime,

thanks to Sebastián.

What's wrong?

I don't get it.

I tried every version

I could think of.

Withdrawn, sad, solemn, agitated,

and Christian Bale.

I don't know,

do something different. That's all.

Take the time to record some ADRs

while I talk to the maestro.

Let's go to the trailer,

it'll be quieter.

Who should I give these to?

Who should I give these to?

Weapons!

Who should I give these to?

One, two, three.

Talk to me.

One, two, one, two.

Hello, hello.

One, two. One, two.

I'm a jackass.

One, two. I'm a disappointment,

nobody likes me.

I don't know

why I'm in this movie.

It's just a job, Sebastián.

This is my first important project

in several years, and

-Louder

-with a good director.

-Okay.

-We've done 44 takes

and he hasn't said a word.

Don't whisper.

-He hates me.

-Okay. He doesn't hate you.

The whole crew hates me.

Not everybody is watching

what you do or don't do, come on.

Everyone has their own problems.

I'm a sound technician, I hear everything.

Really? Like what?

Android 2 has diarrhea.

He's sh1tting in my ear.

Man! Oh, no,

it sounds like a river!

-Here. Don't listen to those things.

-Heavens.

-Enough, enough. Let's get to work.

-Yes.

Okay.

Here we go.

-Can I tell you something?

-Sure.

But you can't tell anybody.

Okay.

-Between me and you.

-Me and you.

Farré, the famous Farré,

made me put microphones

all over the set.

In the kitchen.

-The hallways, bathrooms.

-Is this for real?

-Yes.

-Why?

He wants to know

people's opinion of his movie.

Are you serious?

He's a lot more insecure than you.

But a lot more insecure!

When I say insecure

He can't be more insecure than me.

There's no way.

Let's see if I'm in luck.

Two seconds.

Here it is.

Yeah.

It's all yours.

Welcome to Adán Farré's podcast

with Adán Farré and today's guest,

the many-times-awarded director

Adán Farré.

Tell us, Adán,

do you consider yourself a genius?

No. Tarkovsky was a genius.

You're not far from him, Adán.

I do what I can, that's all.

What would you say

to your critics, Farré?

I'd tell them

that I don't read their reviews.

-No way.

-That's the real Farré.

-Really?

-Really.

Okay, we're going to continue, silence.

Let's do this, let's do this.

This is the good one.

Yeah.

-How are you doing, sound?

-Ready, sir.

Sebastián, tell them all to f*ck off.

Come on. Ready.

Come on, audio ready.

Scene 89, take 46, set action.

You don't say "action"!

Sorry.

Action.

Time is a mirage,

space is nothing.

The vortex is the root

of Tetra-11's acceleration.

We made an inverted temporal turn,

which doesn't make sense

because the kinetic well

should be liquid.

Let's rescue Gala and Magneta

because this is a trap.

Genius!

Okay.

Well, thanks, everybody,

and sorry that I took so long

to get it right, but I did.

Maestro Farré, thank you.

Nobody has ever called me

a genius before.

How did you get there?

After all those takes,

who got you there?

Who's the genius?

Very good.

Who's the f*cking genius?

-Genius.

-Genius.

-Genius, genius!

-Genius!

Genius!

-Genius!

-Genius!

Okay, everybody,

it's a wrap. It's a wrap.

Remember, our director wants us

to come in dressed in purple tomorrow.

We don't get it, we're mere mortals,

but he knows why he wants it.

It's a wrap, everybody!

How did the chick

with the giant boobs go?

Ginger Boy!

-Thank you.

-So long. Thanks for coming.

Thank you so much.

-See you. It was a pleasure.

-Thank you, goodbye.

Well done, Daniel.

I'm going to tell Mr. Ariza.

-It must have been the suit.

-Perhaps it was the suit.

-The investors from Monterrey?

-Yes.

-We have a meeting with them.

-We had it.

They went away happy.

They're sending us the signed contracts.

It's a done deal.

Why the f*ck did you have

the meeting without me?

-Why did you do that, Danny Boy?

-That's so uncool, Danny Boy.

You broke the p*ssy broker code.

Billy, I called you all night,

we had to do something.

-Ari Girl, please bring me my emergency suit.

-Billy, the thing is

I stayed here overnight.

-I thought it would be best

-I didn't have clean clothes here.

to lend him your suit.

You stole my meeting with them

and my custom suit,

which is like Ray Liotta's suit

in Goodfellas.

-That suit is so cool.

-Word.

You were my boy.

You were my boy!

Roleplay, I'm a rocker.

Roleplay, I'm a rocker. Yeah, I'm a rocker.

I have a band.

Yeah, I have a band.

I'm a rocker.

Wow, sure thing.

A private room.

Fish, you're selling

like hot tamales.

Sure, let's do this.

You wanna see my band?

You wanna see my band?

sh*t, no!

f*ck, this job is hard!

Really, wow.

Oh, what the hell?

Hello?

What's up, Sebastián?

This is Julieta, from the flyer.

Sure! f*ck you, Gonzo.

-What?

-Stop calling me.

Sebastián, can you hear me?

What the hell?
