"My name is Anina Yatay Salas, I'm 10 years old and I'm in deep trouble." "At school many of my classmates call me 'capicúa' (palindrome) with a mocking face because my name is read the same forward and backward." "One day I told them what my dad had told me:" "That the word 'capicúa' comes from Catalan, 'cap' means head and 'cua' means tail." "But it was worse, because they made fun of me" "Telling me that I'm 'capicua' (palindrome) girl" "Because I'm just a head and a tail." "My dad constantly reminds me that I have no reason to be ashamed of my body" "Or of my name Anina Yatay Salas," "He tells me that I'm well-proportioned" "And that a triple palindrome name brings three times luck." "I hope it is true, otherwise," "I have no idea how I'm going to get out of the mess I'm in." "Anina!" "Recess is responsible for everything." "There are good teachers at school, like Teacher Aurora" "And bad ones like Agueda..." "Pablo!" "Pablo!" "Slow down, you're going to fall!" "One day you're going to fall and you're going to bleed so much the playground will flood" "That's what you're expecting to happen so you learn that you can't play like that, like crazy" "There are also classmates, who I love, like my friend Florencia" "Oh, careful!" "You're it!" "And others I can't even see like Yisel, the elephant" "Let's trade, I'll give you the 'Little Bull' and you give me the 'Forlín'" "Huh, are you crazy?" "The bull is easier to get" "And the Cat, Pablo?" "You're it!" "You spilled my snack, capicúa girl" "I didn't mean to, and I don't like being called capicúa!" "Capicúa, capicúa, capicúa, triple capicúa!" "Just so you know having a capicúa name brings good luck" "Always the same tone of voice, sorry, I forgot your name was better than everyone else's." "You parents couldn't come up with something that wasn't a capicúa?" "At least I'm not an elephant!" "Who did you call an elephant?" "They're going to fight!" "Fight!" "Fight!" "Fight!" "Watch out!" "The teacher's coming!" "Excuse, let me through." "What is this, girls?" "What's going on?" "They were fighting!" "Shame on you, go to the principal's office immediately." "Anina, how come you can't go to school tomorrow unless one of us goes with you?" "You better answer your dad before he gets really angry" "Do you hear me Anina?" "You're going to get caught" "Deep down, Mom wants to know why the principal wants to meet with one of them" "But Mom is good at waiting, after working on her patience while frying sandwiches she learned that one can always wait a little longer." "It's great to give drops a little more time" "So they start jumping." "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls" "Now, for all of you, Anina, our "capicúa" acrobat," "She will jump on a pan full of boiling oil!" "Anina, weren't you listening?" "Now?" "Yes, now." "I mean, before you start talking." "Capicúa one, capicúa two, capicúa three" "Let him have a fried sandwich right away" "Well, ok." "Anina, once I eat this we're going to have a serious talk." "Mmm, they are delicious sweetie" "The problem is that I got this crappy name" "What crappy name?" "Mine, what other name could it be?" "Anina, a crappy name?" "Yes!" "You see?" "I told you she would reproach us one day" "What?" "Don't you like it?" "Anina is a beautiful name" "Yes, it alone isn't ugly but..." "But?" "...but not together with my last names!" "Why not?" "Because it seems like it is there to complete my palindrome last names, that's why." "Anina" "Anina Yatay Salas, Anina Yatay Salas" "All palindromes, three times a palindrome, it's like a joke!" "I have a name that's a joke" "So you don't like it?" "No." "You have to understand your dad, he likes your name so much, he loves it" "It's not that I hate it either, the thing is that..." "Yes, I know, it sounds like a joke, it's clear for us, especially for your dad" "It's just that sometimes he's so stubborn" "You know what; he's like that ever since I met him" "Where did you meet him?" "At a cinema" "Oh, tell me the story" "What are you finding?" "What am I finding?" "Something I'm not searching" "And you?" "What are you looking for?" "It looks like I found my handkerchief, thank you" "What's your name?" "María Salas" "María Salas, that's nice" "And yours?" "Sergio Yatay" "Sergio Yatay, that's a cute name" "Good night." "Does the husband know?" "I think he doesn't." "He wouldn't let her" "She should take care of the house" "That's what I'm saying." "People know less and less about moral these days." "Classes about moral is what they should take" "Good morning ladies" "Good morning" "Good morning." "Jum, we heard about the trouble you got into young lady" "See if you can behave, huh?" "To be such old ladies you're very well informed, aren't you?" "Good bye" "Those things never happened when I was a teacher" "Capicúa one, Capicúa two, Capicúa three" "Excuse me" "Good afternoon" "And Yisel?" "She wasn't there, that seemed like a bad signal" "If she wasn't there it was because I would be the one held responsible for everything" "But she finally arrived, didn't she?" "Yes, yes but the weird thing is that she didn't show up with her mom or her dad" "Girls, this is a school not a boxing ring" "It's unacceptable that girls behave in such uncivilized way during recess, a cat fight like people call it" "You have to learn that we can't treat one another like that because if we do the only thing we are going to get from life will be that...hard punches" "And the teacher, please, you're there to keep an eye on them, to keep an eye!" "We can't have these things happening during recess." "So it was heated." "Yes, yes no one got away." "And what was the punishment?" "Girls, approach." "As of today you're going to keep these closed envelops for a week." "Closed!" "See?" "This is called sealing wax, it is a special seal for envelops, if you open it, I will find out, because the sealing wax will be broken." "In exactly week, not a day longer or day before we're going to get together and we're going to talk about this matter." "If you open it before the due date you will be assigned a lot of tasks, difficult ones, extremely difficult, super difficult, so very difficult like there have never been before" "I can't tell about the punishment, because it is a secret actually" "It's a weird one, the weirdest punishment in the history of weird punishments" "Anina, please hurry, your classmates already left" "Well, do you like it?" "Yes!" "I'm glad" "What does it say?" ""Dábale arroz a la zorra el abad"" "How cute, what's an "abad"?" "It is a very important person at church." "Oh, what was it again?" ""Dábale arroz a la zorra el abad"" "And what did that mean?" "Nothing special, but it can be read forward and backwards" "Really?" "Like my name?" "Like your name" "What does it say?" "Something a about a fox eating rice" "And why did you put it there?" "It's was gift from my dad." "It can be read the same forward and backward." "What a weird gift" "I'm going to put it in my room" "What for?" "So it can join me in my dreams, my departing and arriving ones" "Departing dreams and arriving dreams?" "Of course!" "The departing ones are the ones" "I picture before falling asleep and the arriving ones are the ones I remember when I wake up" "You're a little crazy, aren't you?" "Happy Birthday!" "I feel embarrassed" "You stay here, I'll go tell him" "No, Florencia come here" "Hey Natan, did you know that Anina is crazy about you?" "Help him, help him" "Somebody please squeeze his belly" "Bring some water" "Excuse me, excuse me" "Sometimes I wonder what Jonatan would have done if he hadn't choked with that sandwich, but I never asked him so I'll never know" "Go away, you've betrayed me" "Why are you saying that Casilda Cornelia?" "Flogisto Rolando, please, stop lying" "You have to forgive me." "That was a crazy night with brandy and confetti, I wasn't myself" "Never, you'll never see my face again Flogisto" "'Amor sin cuartel' will be right back" "The ugliest names in the world Flogisto" "Once I told my grandmother I had an awful name" "She didn't say anything." "She climbed her house's roof and came back with a list of the ugliest names in the world." "Ajuga, Aquilegia, Arujo, Filodendro!" "Luckily, my name wasn't on the list" "Gustavo?" "Present" "Anina, what was your punishment?" "Anina, come on, tell me, just me, I won't tell anyone" "Anina, come on, tell me, just me, I won't tell anyone" " Is she being kicked out of school forever?" " Is it true they're going to make her wear a funny hat so everyone can make fun of her?" " Is it true they're going to throw some chicken on her head?" "You can't say what it is about, right?" "I can't say anything, I can't." ""Anina y Yisel are bad clasmates because they won't sey about how they were puniched"" " The Abengers de 5th B." "Who wrote this?" "It's full of grammar mistakes" "'Classmates' is spelled with double s, 'say' goes with an a, 'punished' with an s and" "'Avengers' with a v." "Something even more important:" "it is not ok to bully your classmates." "I wasn't going to assign homework for the weekend, but since grammar is a weak aspect." "I'm giving you some exercises so you can improve your writing skill, this is for all of you except Yisel and Anina." "Now, take out your homework notebook and write it down" "Anina, Anina come" "What happened?" "I have a present for you" "What is it?" "Listen." "One, two, one, two, check, check, yes, yes, yes, listen to this:" ""A mamá Roma le aviva el amor a papá y a papá Roma le aviva el amor a mamá." (palindrome sentence)" "What is that?" "It's one of the longest palindrome sentences in the world." "Dad, I'm fed up with palindromes." "Can you please show me something that isn't a palindrome?" "Well, I can give you a song" ""I look in the mirror and I see myself a little old to be singing a rock song," "I've been a rocker for so long that my leather jacket got bored in the closet" "Rebellion, everyday, that was rock n' roll," "Remember "Barral" when everything went wrong and we played in days of blues..."" "Anina!" "Dear Comrades, welcome to the Ugly Names International Organization, UNIG." "Today the people with the most disgusting names are here with us, they are: the honorable Colúmela, the gentle Filodendro," "the beautiful Corimba, the mysterious Inducio and the young Gluma." "Today is a special day;" "we've found the ugliest name ever..." "Anina." "Hi Florencia" "Hi, who is this?" "It's me, Anina" "Oh, hi, how are you Anina?" "So-so, I'm calling you because I want to tell you about the punishment," "But you have to promise you won't tell anybody" "Ok, go ahead, let's go to the square" "No, no, promise me" "Ok, yes, I promise" "What's in it?" "I don't know, I have no idea" "I have a plan." "The principal said you couldn't open it, for no reason at all" "Yes, I know that" "But she never said you couldn't open Yisel's envelope" "Are you talking about stealing the elephant's envelope?" "Stealing, stealing?" "No, but to open it to see what's inside of it?" "Yes!" "What are we going to do?" "We have to investigate" "Investigate what?" "To see if she goes out with the envelope or something." "Or to see if she connects with any suspicious person." "Suspicious like who?" "I don't know, suspicious" "I don't know how to recognize a suspicious person" "Anyway, we're going to find out" "My mom asks if she can pay you later" "Of course sweetie" "Ok, let's go" "Hands up, this is a robbery!" "What?" "Give me your cookies" "Don't bother us, go away!" "We are busy." "Hi Yisel!" "She got away" "I bet she's at the bakery" "Let's go take a look" "Do you see her?" "No." "I'm going to check around the corner" "Florencia?" "Hi Yisel, I didn't know you were at the bakery" "I was buying some bread, bye Florencia" "By-bye" "Yisel!" "Did you already do your homework?" "I wasn't assigned any homework" "Right!" "I had totally forgotten." "Have a good one." "Betrayal" "Without any respect or sense of behavior, fighting" "But it's not the children's fault, it's their parents'" "Don't blame the pig, blame those who feed it." "Good afternoon" "How can I help you?" "I was cleaning up my bookcase and I found this book, it's the one I used to use when I was teacher, before I retired." "We know your daughter is having behavior problems at school" "The book has some advice that could help" "Be careful because it has some loose pages, but don't worry they are in the right order" "I appreciate it but I don't think this is necessary" "Keep it." "Listen to me, it's essential, essential!" "It's a shame that people don't give values, moral and discipline the same importance they had before" "What is that?" "I don't know, a manual to educate you" "To educate me" "Yes, did you swallow a parrot?" "Why?" "Don't you know how to do it?" "Don't push your luck, Anina" "Are you going to read it?" "I'm curious; it might give us some kind of recipe" "Anina give me that!" "Never!" "You'll never have a recipe to raise me" "What a disgrace, no wonder I was giving margaritas to the pigs" "Excuse?" "What did you say about the pigs ma'am?" "I said that pigs shouldn't be given margaritas" "Oh, I don't know what you are talking about ma'am, oink oink, oink, oink" "My mom and I spent all Sunday afternoon fixing the book to give it back in good shape to the neighbor."

"Stars will kiss the sea this world will silence its whisper when you come to me" "Beneath the crystal moon will go togethe on sidereal trip when you come to me."" "You're it!" "...And you Jonatan, do you promise to be faithful in good times and bad, in sickness and in health, to love her and respect her till death do you part?" "I do" "I know pronounce you, husband and wife, you may kiss the bride" "Thank you, I'm glad you liked it; if you want to make a contribution it's ok" "Thanks ma'am." "I'll be right there, sir." "The chlorophyll is a green substance that gives vegetables its color." "Thanks to her, plants are capable of catching solar energy and turn it into chemical energy..." "Hey, Flor!" "The process is known as photosynthesis." "What?" "Photo means light, the plants synthesizes solar light to turn it into energy." "The green color that you can observe in the shoots is precisely chlorophyll." "Did you see anything?" "Like what?" "The envelope, what other thing could it be?" "I don't know but there was something there." "But did you see how nervous she got when she saw me staring at her?" "I'm sure she has her envelope in her bag" "Are you listening to me?" "Sure" "We have to get advantage and break in the classroom to get the envelope to know what her punishment is." "I don't know" "Everyone's here, it's the perfect moment" "Anina are you ok?" "Yes" "Ok, I'm in, let's go" "They're not going to let us in just like that" "Well, we're going to have to find a way to do it, don't we?" "How?" "We need something to distract them" "Mateo, come here" "What is it?" "I heard you know how to impersonate a very scary monster" "Yes, a vampire with breadstick teeth" "Why don't you show Sofía?" "But what if she gets scared?" "If she gets scared it's because the monster is really scary." "Later we'll let her know we were just playing." "Ok, fine" "What happened, Sofía?" "Breathe" "Avampire" "Excuse me Principal; have you seen anyone going up the staircase?" "No, there's no one on the top floor." "Shouldn't you be keeping an eye on the children at the playground?" "I'll be there in a minute;" "I forgot something in the classroom" "Ok, but don't take long" "Oh my God!" "We're going to get busted" "You stay here" "Where are you going?" "Can you please tell me what you're doing here" "Reading" "Reading in the dark?" "Well, at least I'm reading, right?" "Kids are not allowed in here young lady, could you please go back to the playground immediately?" "What a rogue my grandma was, the list of the ugliest names in the world was a list with names of plants." "You all know we have a first-aid kit in case of any accident." "So far I've been in charge of making sure it has basic things such as water, band-aids, hydrogen peroxide etc." "But we need someone else do take care of it, someone we can all trust, and I came up with a couple of names for this task." "I thought about assigning such an important responsibility to Anina and Yisel, what do you think?" "Don't you think it's a great idea?" "2 packages of gauze, 3 band-aids, 1 and a half packages of cotton." "What's missing?" "Iodine and alcohol" "I'm going to ask the teacher" ""Australia"" ""Yisel, I miss you"" ""I look in the mirror and I look a little old to be singing rock, I've been a rocker for so long that my leather jacket got bored in the closet rebelliousness, all day long, that's what rock n' roll used to be"" "Just like that, between one thing and the other the whole week had gone by."

"Pablo fell" "What do you mean he fell?" "I asked a question, how did he fell?" "He just fell, he fell." "It was an accident." "Can you give me a hand?" "Hand me the alcohol" "Why are you groaning?" "We didn't even touch you" "You see Pablo?" "It's like I always say, you never pay attention and always do what you please and so you have to fall so you can understand?" "I can't believe it." "You're impossible." "Don't worry, this will heal you" "That's it, spare the rod, spoil the child, it's the only way they'll learn, do you understand?" "Spare the rod, spoil the child, just by suffering they will learn, that's why you have to punish them." "I don't want that" "It's for your own good" "We don't want to learn that way!"

"Where is it?" "Which envelope Anina?" "Anina, what are you talking about?" "The one the principal gave to me" "Look!" "It's right there on the floor" "Oh no" "What is it?" "It's open, the sealing wax is broken!" "You must have gotten up while you were asleep and opened it without realizing" "I don't understand, it's empty, the principal is going to kill me, she's going to assign me millions of difficult tasks" "Anina, Anina stay calm honey" "Sweetie, go to sleep now." "Tomorrow I'll help you look for whatever was in it." "Now rest Honey, good night." "Good morning sleepy head" "Dad, I feel terrible, I don't think I'll be able to go to school" "How curious, precisely today when you have to meet with the principal" "My stomach hurts" "Oh, your stomach?" "Well, you won't be able to eat the escalope breaded steak with French fries and fried eggs I was going to cook today." "Oh I know, I can make some noodles without any sauce, just noodles so won't feel any worse..." "I don't think it's my stomach Daddy, I think it's my head what really hurts" "Your head, Anina?" "Yes, but it's fading already" "Oh, well, we need a volunteer to go bring a kilogram of breadcrumbs and a dozen eggs to make some delicious escalope breaded steak." "Can you think of anyone?" "Me!" "I never thought it could happen," "I had opened the envelope and what was worse," "I hadn't found anything, but that wasn't the only thing that happened to me that morning." "Bye, thank you" "Bye, see you later" "Leave that, don't worry I'll clean that up" "Here, here, let me replace that" "Sorry, I didn't see you" "It's all right" "César, I'm taking these noodles" "Ok Yisel, take them, I'll write them down" "Bye, thanks" "What a difficult situation for that family, huh?" "Ever since the father had to go to Australia things have gone from bad to worse." "The mother doesn't work, does she?" "She does, but the main issue there is that they're far away from each other" "Right there I realized the trouble I was in." "Suddenly, I didn't care about my punishment, about Jonatan liking me, or about an open and empty envelope, my Yisel wasn't the elephant..." "Wow, do we have a cook in the house?" "So you love and want to help me all of a sudden?" "Yes" "What are you going to ask me?" "Dad, is Australia far from here?" "Yes, it's in the opposite side of the world" "Have you ever been there?" "What is it with Australia?" "Do you have geography homework?" "No, but I heard Yisel's dad went there to go work" "Sometimes people have to go to other countries to work for a while" "Do they come back?" "Some people do" "So he might not come back" "I don't know, he might" "Will he come back or not?" "I don't know Anina, what do you want me to tell you?" "I want you to tell me that Yisel will live with her dad again." "That's what I want you to tell me" "Anina, I'm sure Yisel's father doesn't want anything else but to come back." "I have an idea, why don't we invite her over to eat escalopes breaded steaks?" "Who?" "Yisel?" "Yes, Yisel why not?" "Mom, I didn't find what was in it" "Don't worry, take it and explain the principal what happened" "Anina!" "Good luck my friend" "Who is it?" "Anina Yatay Salas" "Come in." "Hello Anina" "Hello Anina" "Hello" "Sit down, please." "Girls, take your envelopes out, break the sealing wax and open them." "Anina, your envelope?" "I opened it" "Before the due date?" "Yes" "But Anina, why are you crying?" "Because I opened it before the due date" "Don't worry, I knew this could happen." "I gave you those envelopes so you could reflect on what had happened." "But mine is empty" "Mine too" "Exactly." "The mystery around the content of the envelope was intentional so you would wonder and look in you." "So you could learn that it is always good to put yourself in the other person's shoes." "The envelope was for you to fill." "The principal didn't want to punish us." "She just wanted us to fill the envelope with anything we could learn from this experience." "I learned that, just like my name, important things come and go." "Here, it's a gift" "Thanks" "You're it!" "But please, don't run in the playground because you're going to fall" "Subtitle ripped and corrected by luqui89"
