01x05 - You Know Something?

Post by bunniefuu »

In this twist of fate

I found myself

Always chasing a dream

I try my luck

And start walking

The coin keeps spinning

And here I am singing

I never stop

I never stop dreaming

I have no doubts

And I don't mind

I'm trying one more time

The coin's already spinning

And I'm out of here singing

I never stop

I never stop dreaming

If the future is already written

I'm not sure about that

But nobody is

We can just go on

I never stop

I never stop

Dreaming...

Rosendo Cuevas.

- What do you mean?
- Nothing.

Gavilán, I'm proud of you.

The concert hall was packed.

Do you already have my money?

I remind you
that you only have three days left.

I don't have it, Malaka...

Concerts aren't what they used to be.

We have to pay hall, union,

musicians, and taxes.

And the last thing is my payment.

But don't worry.
I'm going to pay you, Malaka.

Promoters are fighting for us.

They're planning the national tour,
show after show, show after show,

so I'm going to pay you soon.

Why the taxi? Why not on my motorcycle?

Now the way things are,
I don't want him to ride a motorcycle.

I'm ready.

Well, get on the car, dad.

- Why not on the motorcycle?
- It didn't start.

- Hurry up, don't be late.
- Let's go.

Hello, Mr. Rubén.

- How are you?
- I'm fine. And you?

I'm fine.

You've been in this industry
for a while no, Gavilán.

So you better calm down.

I can't calm down. I need more money.

Don't tell me
that any promoter is interested.

Isn't there any concert at the door?

Not exactly.

I've talked to many.

We've confirmed several dates
due to the concert.

So? What are you doing, b*stard?

We've confirmed several dates for Reta.

Everybody loves
your nephew and his band.

Where the hell is Pedro?

He's coming soon. He had a problem.

- I'm calling him.
- Thanks.

OK. I'm on it.

Look, Huevo. Your replacement is here.

Shut up!

I'm sorry.

You're late.

I'm here now.

Let's start.

In the corner of my memories...

Did you fall out of bed today?

Well,

it's a new day.
There are many things to do.

- Let's start.
- Good.

Drop by my office later.

I want to talk to you.

Of course.

- Come on in.
- Thanks.

Xoch is telling me about
Las Águilas Doradas and La Mariachera.

- Really?
- Yes.

I knew they know each other,
but not so much.

She and I?

Since she was born.

Really?

She is my baby.

If it wasn't for her,

I'd have thought about it twice
before returning you to your job.

Wow.

I'm the boss's daughter.

You have a meeting with Chava tomorrow
so that you can present your proposal.

- OK?
- Really?

Thank you.

So, have you forgiven me

for not telling you
that Chava is my father?

You have to forgive me.

I've been complaining
about your father for months.

Over and over again.
And you didn't say anything.

Well, you have no idea
how my mother talks about him.

She's not nice.

Well, "blah blah blah."

I know you have a lot to deal with.

But you are brave.

Because you're here. You don't give up.

And because...

You get up every day
to find something beautiful in life.

You're not alone.

No one is.

Thank you for calling
the "Échale ganas" helpline.

If we make all those changes,
we can lower costs by up to 30 percent.

If you have any doubts about anything,

feel free to ask.

We'd have to take a closer look
at these changes...

Yes?

But they can work.

Really? I mean, of course.

However, a person with your position

can't be in charge of supervising
all these details.

Why not? I made this.

- I got all that information...
- Let me finish.

I'm going to promote you.

Are you serious?

I know you're serious. You never joke.

Why don't you go out for a breath
and come back after you're more calm

and we'll see how we're going to work?

Sure.

Are you OK?

Yes, I think it was the food.

Do you need to talk about
what happened yesterday?

Everything's fine.

I'm leaving my confusion in the distance

Leaving my heart

In each mark

Once more without following what I feel

Thinking about being...

Huevo, what's going on?

Martín, can we stop? Please.

OK. Take a break to drink something.

What's wrong with you?

We've been rehearsing for years

to find our voice, our music,
and our identity.

You risk this to keep
your father in the band.

I understand why, but...

No, it's clear
that you don't understand.

It's as if my mother came
to make decisions for the band.

- Like this?
- What are you doing here?

- Hi, David.
- My name's Huevo.

- I'm your manager.
- You're not our manager.

- I can't hear you.
- You can go now. Bye.

- Hello.
- Go away, mom.

That has nothing to do with it.

Of course.

I'm going to get a coffee.

Hello, Huevo. Can I talk to you?

Of course.

It's just I feel you like... unfocused,
like you're upset with me.

Don't say that.

Listen, Huevo. I'm losing my memory,
but I'm not going stupid.

- I never said that.
- I was already stupid,

- but I have a good heart.
- I know that.

What? That I'm stupid?

No. In other words,
you have a good heart.

It's alright. I'm just joking.

I'm not joking now.

I know very well that
you also have a good heart.

That's why I want to talk to you
about what you feel for Pedro.

What I feel?

I think you must feel displaced

with all this that you started together.

It's not that.

I'm going to tell you something.

I have a great idea.

I want to fuse rock with mariachi.

I haven't said anything to Pedro.

If you don't like the idea,

I won't tell him anything about it.

Because no one knows better than me

what it feels like
to have your dreams cut short.

Mr. Rosendo. Believe me, it's not you.

- Not at all.
- So what's the problem?

It's just that... How can I say this?

I... It's hard for me to understand,
but I love your son.

- I know that.
- Do you already know it?

Of course I do.

Is everything OK, dad?

It's all right.
Your dad has a great idea.

Right, Gallo?

In the corner of my memories

I forgot hope in time

I paused and I never looked back

On the road of this adventure

I stopped doubting

And there's no doubt

That I want to start on

And here I go

Tracing my destiny

Reinventing myself

Having a dream
Like the first time


And here I go

Leaving my confusion in the distance

Leaving my heart

In each mark

Nobody escapes from so much madness

An oversight and everything ends...

Hello, everyone. How are they doing?

Doing great, brother.

Do you remember him?

Chucho?

Valentín.

It's an honor to have among us one
of the last great mariachi composers.

- Welcome.
- Thanks.

And here I go

Leaving so much confusion
in the distance


Printing my heart on every mark

Once more without following what I feel

Thinking about being
What everyone wants to see


And at nothing they do
It seem meaningless


But now I'm awake

And here I go

Mapping my destiny
And inventing myself


Building a dream

like the first time...

I think we could start with an interview
with my whole family,

to talk about the past
and how we are now.

It's a good idea.

People like to know
about the privacy of celebrities.

It could be at Gavilán's house.

No, your house doesn't look homey.

Your house is a rich bachelor's.

It may be at my brother's.

A family house.

That's better than the set.

The only bad thing is that I'm not sure

that my sister-in-law likes the idea
of cameras in her house.

You know better, Gavilán.

It's your career and your money.

Hi, Lucía. It's Gavilán.

Can we meet tomorrow?

It's important. Please.

Well, let's do it.

What are you doing?

Why didn't you call me?

Why?

To know that you were coming.

OK.

- What are you doing?
- Answer the cell phone.

- Why?
- Answer, dude.

You're very stupid, bro.

I'm not here to see you.

Why are you here? Wait.

- Well, well, well...
- What?

- What's going on?
- Aren't we friends or what?

Yes.

Well, as your friend, I'd like to know
you're dating my brother

I'm not dating your brother.

He's my friend. Bye, Jorge!

OK, bye.

- Hello. How are you?
- What's up, Xoch?

- I'll ride it.
- Do you know how to drive it?

- Yeah.
- This is a motorbike.

Your brother's so talented.

Yes, talent runs in our blood.

- Are you ready to order?
- Thank you very much.

I'm ready. What would you like?

I want a triple cheese torta, please.

A double cheese torta isn't enough.

I want a torta, too...

A special mixed torta.

Can you add
some avocado for mine, please?

- Sure.
- Is that OK, honey?

- Yes.
- Thanks.

It's so crazy.

It's weird to read the menu
from left to right

and not from right to left.

What?

I used to look at the prices
before ordering.

But there's no need now,

since I was promoted. Look.

Right?

Everything's alright now.

- I love you.
- I love you, too.

Xoch.

What?

Xoch and my brother are here.

Hey!

Bearded jerk!

Hello.
- What's up?

- Sit down.
- Sure. What's up?

- Hey, bro.
- What's up, guys?

Hi.

No. I don't want cameras in my house.

Lucía, try to understand.
It's for the good of everyone.

I'd like to release...

a song with my brother.

Don't look at me that way.

He asked me to.

Don't you understand that he is sick?

Look, think about it.

It's not only for Rosendo's good,

but also for your son's.

It would be great for Reta.

The concert was a success.

Don't tell me you
don't miss the cameras.

What do you know
about what I miss or don't miss?

OK. I had enough of this.

Excuse me.

Dear sister-in-law,

don't make me do it my way, OK?

So what are you doing here?

We're celebrating. What about you, guys?

We want to eat tortas.

What are you celebrating?

I got promoted.

Congratulations.
What's your new position?

Well, there's no exactly

a way to call my position.

You should be just proud of him, right?

Did you get a raise?

We haven't talked about it yet.

But...

Well, there are cuts in the company,
so getting a raise is complicated.

You already know that.

Weren't you very proud of him?

Waiter, no avocado. I don't want it.

OK, tell me. What's going on?

It's just band stuff.

Band stuff?

I'm your mother.

- I know something's wrong with you.
- I'm...

in love... with someone I shouldn't be.

That "shouldn't" in love is silly.

Love is love.

You don't understand.

I always knew, Huevo.

You called me Huevo.

I respect your decisions.

I love you, unconditionally.

How long have you known?

I always knew. But it's not important.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because I respect your times.

I never felt this before.

But now I'm in love.

Enjoy it, suffer it.

That's how love is.

Don't worry about what others say.

Come here.

No, it's not OK.

Honey, he has no problems.

How can you say that, Rosendo?

Don't you realize your brother
is using us for his interviews?

Everything's going to be fine.

I'm worried that you think that way.

We can't keep thinking that any decision
he makes is to hurt us.

It suits us.

Why don't you think
that the better it goes for him,

the better it will go for all of us?

- What's up, dude?
- What's up?

Didn't you see my messages?

- If it's because of my dad, forget it.
- No.

It's just...

I need to talk to you.

It's just...

I'm in love... with you.

I didn't know how tell you, but...

I don't understand, dude.

Give me a chance to process this.

Good afternoon, everyone.

- Good afternoon, brother.
- How's everything?

All good, guys? Great.

Hey, Fidel...

Yes, put a lot on him

so he doesn't look ten years older
than me on camera.

- Ignore him.
- Thanks.

Did you hear how his knees cracked
just as he sat down?

He's very old...

Don't go beyond the questions
that we've already agreed on.

Of course not.

Is there anything
that they can't ask about?

Well, due to his condition
he can't stress himself.

He doesn't look stressed.

Only the questions we agreed on.

We're ready. Five, four, three.

Rosendo and Jorge Cuevas, El Gavilán.

Two brothers who came out of poverty

to get the highest peaks of stardom.

Two mariachis
apart with different paths.

That today, after many years,

they meet again in a very special moment

that Rosendo is victim
of a cruel disease.

It's a pleasure to be here with you.

Thank you for the interview.

- Gallo, you can call me Gallo.
- What?

Yes, Gallo.

A long ago, when we used
to sing together

that's what I was called.

In fact, we were introduced as
El Gallo and El Gavilán.

El Gavilán and El Gallo.

Yes, it's the same.

We can agree on which bird goes first.

But, speaking of birds,

a little bird told me
about your new song.

Yes. It's really good, by the way.

Does that song talk about the reasons
for many years of separation?

No.

We've decided to leave all that behind
and it has nothing to do with that.

- Rosendo... I'm sorry, Gallo.
- Yes, Gallo.

Can you tell me about your wife?

Yes, of course.

Lucía...

Lucía is a wonderful woman.

And an excellent mother.

Undoubtedly,

the best thing that ever happened to me.

- They love each other a lot.
- Yes.

She was the host of this TV program
where you got your start, right?

Effectively.

I remember and people will remember

this TV program called:

"La canción que buscabas."

Money...

Rosendo...

What do I want it for

If I have

Your sincere love

Money

What do I want it for

My kingdom became true

Along with you...

Where are you going to work?

In a mattress store.

And they gave me this.

That's very nice.

Do not be sad.

I'm not sad. It's just that...

I don't want you to sacrifice anything.

Listen, I didn't sacrifice anything.

I changed one thing for another, OK?

There's no better dream
than spending life next to you.

Finally, we're going to sleep decently.

Yes.

Mr. Cuevas...

Gallo?

Mr. Cuevas?

- Mr. Cuevas?
- What? Yes?

- Are you OK?
- Yes, I'm fine.

It's a pleasure for us to be here
in such a familiar house.

Family is a very important topic.

Yes. Speaking of family,

I'd like to introduce my two nephews,
who are here.

That's Jorge, that's Pedro.
Please, come here.

Let them come here on camera. Please.

Let's show the strength
of this family's testosterone.

Of course. Go ahead.
Hurry up! Why not?

- Don't be shy.
- Don't go.

Don't be shy.

- Welcome, Jorge Cuevas.
- Hello. Here in the middle.

- Thanks. Hello.
- Have a seat.

- In the middle?
- Yes.

So you're Jorge.
The youngest brother, right?


No, I'm the eldest one.

Really?

Do you have your uncle's name
instead of your father's?


Yes. Well...

We are so very similar, right?

Of course.

Rosendo and Jorge Cuevas, El Gavilán.

Two brothers who came out of poverty
to achieve success.

A family with a big scandal.

There's mud in this family,

but there are not secrets.

After this interview, we have
tothank you for welcoming us


into your home...

That's why I didn't want your brother
to do the interview.

He took advantage of us.

It's alright, honey.

I liked being in front of the camera.

First of all, I want to thank you
for inviting me.


And, indeed,

I want to say
that after the meeting with my family,

I realized
that I can't continue to hide the truth.

So I want to share it with you.

I want to tell you that...

Jorge Cuevas is not my nephew.

No, wait. You always change the channel.

Jorge Cuevas...

is my son.

Let me talk to him.

- I will...
- No, leave him alone.
