01x03 - El Robo

[bunniefuu]

ALL THE CHARACTERS, PLOT, SITUATIONS AND
STORIES OF THE SERIES ARE PURELY FICTION,

ANY RESEMBLANCE TO REALITY
IS PURELY COINCIDENTAL.

(siren)

(distant traffic)
(dog barking)

Oh, but this guy’s Uruguayan.

MAN:
It's all I have.

(door sliding)

What are you up to, Farelli?

I got you that bank job and
now you’re cutting me off?

It’s not like that.

This is not for me.

Come here… you know the rules.

You also know what happens
when someone breaks the rules.

Chill, man.

(mutters) m*therf*cker. Piece of sh*t.

LUCHO:
When Wally and Barbara walk into the hotel

they are going to find out
where they keep the Cup.

I'm going to check-in with the
false ID Fafa is going to get me

and we are going to set up
our headquarters there.

Once inside, Hugo and Fafa will conceal
themselves and get rid of security.

-I owe you one.
-CLERK: Slay it, babe!

LUCHO:
The moment that room is unattended,

we will use the guard’s
key to get into it.

We take the Cup out of there.
Moira will be waiting for us outside.

Darío, you are going to have
the cameras disconnected,

-to make sure everything runs smoothly.
-You know how to disconnect them, right?

-Yes.
-Good.

THE STOLEN CUP

(plane droning)
(funky music)

The Cup is here.

(engine starts, revs)

(indistinct crowd)

They’re about to get into
the hotel. Should I go now?

Yes, Moira. Go to the headquarters.

(calls) Sebastián, will you
hurry up? Son, come on!

-But, I'm ready.
-LUCHO: Oh, ok. Go. Go.

-Hello.
-Hello.

-I have a reservation.
-Under which name?

-Washington Roger Pereyra.
-Excuse me?

Washington Roger Pereyra.

BÁRBARA (hushed):
Give it to me! Give it back!

(hushed) Would you rather I smoke
a joint? I'm very nervous.

-Love, give me the drops. Please.
-BÁRBARA: Don't even think about it!

Enough! No, you make me nervous. I'll
have to… calm down! Hey! (hushes)

Room 405, it is to
the left of the elevators.

-That’s very kind of you. Thank you.
-Don’t mention it.

-Julieta. Welcome. Pleasure’s all mine.
-Mónica. How are you? It’s a pleasure.

This is Dylan, my assistant.

-Hi, Dylan. Yes.
-Hello. How are you? Nice to meet you.

Today’s a chaotic day here.
Have you been waiting long?

-No, we just got here.
-MÓNICA: Oh, good. Follow me, please.

Thanks.

Go ahead.

(elevator whirring)

(elevator ding)

(simultaneous phone dings)

(laughs)

(heavy breathing)

ANDRÉS:
How is everything?

Manage your anxiety, Andrés, I'm asking
you, please. Keep it under control!

I'm trying to, Lucho. I'm trying.

Ah.

-Good morning.
-Hello.

FARELLI: Huh, we have… an appointment
with Mr. Washington Roger Pe-pe-pe…

HUGO:
Pereyra, Roger Pereyra.

-(sighs) Regarding?
-Business. He is waiting for us.

MÓNICA: 180 square meters,
seating capacity of 400 people.

Believe me, the silver room
will be perfect for your event.

-And is it used exclusively for weddings?
-Mostly.

-What about security?
-MÓNICA: Don’t worry about it.

We are very well equipped with cameras at
all sectors, monitoring 24 hours a day.

Can I?

-Hi, how are you?
-How are you?

They are putting together
a wedding ceremony

for a very important person in the hotel.

They want to make sure security’s
not going to be an issue.

-GUARD: Of course, it happens.
-Thank you.

-BÁRBARA: Excuse me.
-MÓNICA: And your partner?

He’s probably double checking
it, he is the obsessive type.

(laughs) Oh!

(sneaky music)

EXIT

(sighs) What the f*ck are we doing?

Guys, I can't find it.

Sir, you cannot be on this floor.

-What? Say it again.
-You can't be on this floor, please leave.

Oh, yeah, sure. The
thing is, I'm lost. (chuckles)

Hugo.

Fafa.

(sighs) I have a bad feeling about it.

You're supposed to be the professional,
right? You should bring us peace of mind.

Yeah, well, I just thought we were
going to assemble a talented team.

-And we did it!
-Stop f*cking around.

We have a hacker who doesn't
understand a thing about hacking.

A delivery girl will drive us off with
the Cup, and to make matters worse,

we must rely on a couple who
don’t know the first thing…

about what they’re doing.
I'm just being honest.

(phone chime)
(Lucho sighs)

NEW MESSAGE FROM WALLY
ROOM 1850

LUCHO: We know where the Cup is. Room
1850. What were you saying, Fafa?

Take it. This is yours.

MANILA: Yes, of course, it's here.
Everything is under control.

Tickets for the show are sold out.

That's why I'm telling you…
There is no anger here, just conformism…

You know how the Argentines are, easy to
be tamed. They’re all bark and no bite.

After the tour, we should
make the announcement.

Expectations are high about who will
replace you after the World Cup.

BÁRBARA: We have thought about
it a lot. He's got this idea where…

…But well, what I mean with that is…

MÓNICA: I imagined that you were
going to tell me about the rehearsal.

BÁRBARA:
The only issue is…

whether we could try it out
on two different days or not.

MÓNICA:
I'll have to ask about it.

Hello. Hi, I'm sorry. Do you
have a table with an outlet?

-HOSTESS: Yes, that one.
-Thank you.

You're welcome.

BÁRBARA:
The difference is huge. It's huge.

Does the hotel spread ozone
through the ventilation ducts?

What?

To cheer the guests up and keep them
awake. I’ve read it somewhere.

That’s a myth.
(All chuckle)

BÁRBARA:
Back to what really matters.

The Silver room is fine, but I'm
wondering about the Golden room.

I mean, if you have a Silver room, I
believe you have a Golden room as well.

We have a Golden room, but
it's for a different kind of event.

I would love to see it.

How many people will be
attending this wedding?

A lot! A lot. Loads.

Um… It's not about quantity, but
the high caliber of our guest list.

MÓNICA:
I understand.

It just so happens that today
there's an event in the Golden room.

-WALLY: What kind of event?
-MÓNICA: A welcome c*ck party.

-A business one, let's say.
-Well, we could go see it now, then.

No, they're getting it ready for it.
It's scheduled for 4:00 p.m.

Well… yet another reason for
us to see it, all ready for action.

It would be so helpful.

I don't think I'll be authorized to do so.

We don't need to go into it.

We can take a sneak peek through
the door, no one will notice it.

And if you let us see the room,
we'll tell you who's getting married.

(Bárbara laughs)
WALLY: You won't believe it.

(laughs)

It’ll be just a minute.
We won’t bother anyone.

MOIRA:
What the hell!

Moira? Moira, are you okay?

(phone chimes)

NEW MESSAGE FROM BARBY

LUCHO: Now we have to be more focused
than ever. Let's go over the plan again.

c*ck AT 4 P.M.

When the c*ck party starts,
most of the security team

will be with Manila and his entourage.

At that moment, Hugo, you are
going to go up to the eighth floor,

using the stairs, and you are going to
hide in the emergency exit.

When Darío cuts the cameras off,
Fafa, you go down the hall,

distract the guard,
and Hugo, you put him to sleep.

Then we get in using
that access card. Sorry.

(phone rings)
(sighs) Sorry.

Hi? …Yes, it's me… What happened?

I’ll be back before the
c*ck starts. Stay put!

-Lucho!
-LUCHO: What are you doing here?

I came to interview
Manila for the newspaper.

Our little chat from the
other day inspired me.

What about you? What are you doing here?

-An electronics… convention.
-You have to make up lost ground, right?

-Exactly! See you!
-Hmm.

-LUCHO: Hi.
-TEACHER: How are you?

-I'm sorry I made you rush here.
-No, no, that’s okay. How are you, son?

TEACHER: It seems the best
thing to do is to take him home.

-Oh. What happened?
-TEACHER: Nothing, they…

They made fun of me because
we aren’t going to the World Cup.

Look, I'm aware of what
Seba is going through,

but you understand I can't let a
thing like that go unnoticed.

No, yeah, of course. Nothing
justifies violence against anyone.

(hushed) What do you mean
you can't? I'm going to k*ll you!

(hushed) I’ve never told you I could.

What are you wearing? Did
you arrive on sailboat? as*h*le!

They’re tourist clothes!

HOSTESS:
Excuse me, would you like something else?

(normal) No, no, no.
Thank you. (sighs)

Darío, keep trying. m*therf*cker.

(sighs)
(keyboard typing)

(beeping)

(suspenseful, funky music)

He's a jerk! How could he
just leave right now?

Without a leader, there's no robbery.

-WAITER: Yes, what can I get you?
-Hum… a coffee.

(knocks)

-VICKY (calls): Who is it?
-LUCHO: I'm Lucho, your neighbor.

-VICKY: Hello.
-LUCHO: Are you busy?

-I was just training a little bit.
-Okay. I need to ask you a favor.

-VICKY: Go on.
-Could you keep an eye on him for a while?

If you could, that’d be amazing,
but in case you can’t, don’t worry.

Huh, yeah, yeah, I can do it.

You’re a lifesaver, I’m working, and he
had to be taken home earlier today.

They sent me home, but they didn’t
do anything to the other dude.

It's really unfair.

-You broke his nose, Sebastián.
-He started it.

If he hit you first, it's okay
if you broke his nose.

-Write down my number.
-LUCHO: Sure.

-Can you write it down for me, please?
-VICKY: Yes, of course.

-(keys jangling)
-Here.

I'm going to leave you the keys to the
apartment in case you need something.

Don't worry, huh?
You've had enough action for today.

-I really appreciate it. So… Bye, buddy.
-Don’t mention it. Shall we?

SEBASTIÁN:
Bye, dad.

And do they have more than one wife?

If they want to. But
that wouldn't fly with me.

And they are forced to get
married and have children.

Oh! In my family, things kinda
work the same way, y’know?

Are you sure you're still into
this motorcycle thing now?

-(thickly) Wouldn’t it be dangerous?
-Are you okay, Andrés?

It feels like this part of my face’s
going numb, that's all.

But don't worry, eh?
It’ll get back to normal soon.

Come on. I'll take you to a hospital.

No, I’ve had an injection,
just give it a minute.

You have no idea how your face looks like.

(phone rings)

-ANDRÉS: Leave for the hotel.
-I'll drop you off at a hospital first.

No, no, I don't want to
go to a hospital. I'm going…

I don't care, I'm not leaving you here
alone. Come with me, Andrés.

Fine, that's over. Now,
listen, change of plans.

Stop right now with the change of plans
thing. Let’s wait for Lucho to come back.

-FARELLI: What if he doesn't?
-If that happens…

-…We'll have to go through the vents.
-BÁRBARA: Babe!

-WALLY: What?
-Enough with the vents.

I'm leaving. I can't risk
my reputation with you guys.

You must know when to hold
them and know when to fold them.

We’ve failed before we’ve
started it. I've…f-f-family.

WALLY:
Can you calm down, please? Chill!

-LUCHO: What happened?
-Bad news.

The c*ck party is about to start,

your high school buddy
wants to boycott everything,

and Darío can't turn off the cameras.

Can't you cut the cameras off?

No, no, it's impossible. This
system is ancient. I can't code it.

Oh, sh*t.

(beeping)
(keys clacking)

-DARÍO: But there is something I can do.
-LUCHO: What?

I can erase the images
as the cameras record them.

That's something! Let me
think about it and I'll call you.

There is a slight change of plans.

Darío can't cut the cameras off,
but he can erase the footage.

Now, we gotta figure out a way to
get rid of the guy who monitors them.

How?

I can handle it.

-Hi. How are you?
-Hi.

BÁRBARA: Do you remember me?
I was here earlier with Monica.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. What's up?

BÁRBARA: Uh… I want to ask you
a couple of questions because,

you are the expert and
I want to be able to explain…

Hmm. Where’s Monica?

Uh… She's at the c*ck
party, the one for the Cup.

-Yes, come in.
-BÁRBARA: Hey, thanks.

First, remind me of the name
of the system because…

-(chuckles) It's a classic CCTV.
-BÁRBARA: Uh-huh.

We have cameras in all shared spaces.
Hallways, stairs, elevators, lobby…

BÁRBARA:
Uh-huh…

The system is old but
gold, it's highly reliable.

Yeah. (laughs) It's incredible, and
you’re always here overseeing everything.

-It must be fun, right?
-Hmm… It’s somewhat bitter at first.

(laughs) Yeah, always!

(indistinct chatter)

-BÁRBARA: Mh-hmm.
-Do you like it?

BÁRBARA:
Now we're talking!

-Can I take a picture?
-No. No, it's a private event, no.

(both laugh)
BARBARA: Can you send me one, then?

Sure thing.

(applause)

(in English) Thank you, thank
you, thank you for being here.

(in Spanish) Hi, everyone. It's an
immense honor for me to be here,

representing the highest
soccer organization.

(applause)

All right, all right. (exhales)

-Who are you?
-I'm here for the shift change.

-GUARD: Which change?
-Yes, yes, I'm here…

It's my turn. No, because…
(Guard yells)

MANILA:
As you already know, unfortunately,

Argentina will not take
part in the next World Cup.

Still, we have decided to make
a stopover here out of respect

for the long-lasting soccer
tradition this country holds.

-Give me the card.
-Calm down.

-WALLY: Go ahead.
-Breathe.

MANILA:
All of us who passionately love soccer,

know that the Cup is our
greatest symbol, our Holy Grail.

This trophy can only be touched by a
privileged few. The world champions.

Thanks to this tour, you'll have the
chance to see it up close.

So, we can all feel like world
champions, at least for a moment.

I'm inside. They threw
a huge party in here.

-I don't see it.
-(in English) What the f*ck?

(chuckle) Bruce!

(grunts, muffled) Bruce!
Bruce, you sick f*ck!

BRUCE: Wanna fight me, b*tch?
How the f*ck you get in here?

Where ya going, dipshit?

Bruce?

And why are you in this?
There's no money in this.

A warrior does not do things
for money, Fafa.

Stop talking like a samurai,
you're from Lanús.

-Avellaneda.
-Same sh*t.

(clattering)

What happened?

You're not going to believe me,
but that wasn't the Cup's room.

LUCHO: I saw everything,
you must delete the footage.

We have to get out of here right
now. We gotta go now, come on!

I know where the Cup is.

Huh?

Look, we Costa Ricans will
never win the World Cup

because they always screw us over. It's
down here. In the presidential suite.

Now let me go, okay? Before
they kick me out. I'm not ratting you out.

-(snorts) No way.
-Untie him.

-Lucho.
-LUCHO: Fafa, untie him.

We'll do it…

We'll use the vents.

Lucho, today… you become a hero.

-Lucho, tell me what you see.
-Hold on, Wally, I just got in.

It's hot in here.

Well, at some point you're
going to have to go down,

then keep going in the same
direction you came from.

What about your assistant?

Uh… I had to send him to
get a few things.

-Oh… He was right.
-BÁRBARA: About what?

The ozone. We release it through the
ducts, so you never feel like leaving.

(indistinct chatter)

-Are you ill?
-LUCHO: No. I feel happy.

It's the adrenaline talking.

Excuse me for the indiscretion.
(indistinct chatter)

-What?
-Are you a thing?

-(camera clicks)
-You and your assistant?

-No! (laughs) He and… No, no way.
-(laughs) Really? I thought so.

No, no, no, no, no… my assistant…

-And are you married?
-Hmm, uh… No…. No, I’m not.

And are you free tonight?

Um, we could grab a
bite or… (laughs) go for a drink?

Oh, I… I have dinner plans
with my boyfriend.

Ah.
(applause)

(Bárbara chuckles weakly)

Thank you. Enjoy your stay.

Alright folks, alright folks,
no questions.

Manila, a picture with the Cup?

It would do wonders for you.

A picture?

It's not a bad idea… Let's go get it.

What are you doing?
You’re like a kleptomaniac.

(thunk)

I guess that’s it.

DOMINATRIX: Spanking? Do
you like that? I know you like it.

Do you feel like having a good time today?

Do you feel like suffering a little bit?
Aren’t you a bad boy? Come on.

WALLY:
Can you see it?

No.

(hushed) Manila’s heading to the room.
Manila is going to get the Cup.
