"An elephant." "Very good!" "What about this one?" "Horse." "And this?" "Car." "I'm going to drive in my car and get on the plane." "Then I go by car." "Yes!" "Look what I got for you." "I love you." "I'd do anything for you." "I mean it." "I'd do anything for you." "And you..." "Would you do anything for me?" "Anything at all?" "Tell your chick that every day, and you'll brainwash her." "I love you." "I'd do anything for you." "Anything." "Negrito..." "Say it like you mean it, bro." "What's the matter?" "You seem absent-minded." "What's the problem?" "I'm not sure anymore." "Sure about What?" "I feel weird." "What do you mean?" "About Sofia." "Son of a bitch!" "Don't worry, bro." "It's normal." "You always fall for them." "You need to chill out." "Now, eat." "Aren't you going in?" "Won't you come with me?" "No." "Please?" "Are you OK?" "What's the matter?" "Tell me." "I don't want anything to happen to you." "What do you mean?" "What could happen to me?" "I'm going to take care of you." "I won't let anyone touch you." "You were going to be my first." "Your first what?" "Your first what?" "My dad and my brother make their girlfriends work as whores." "You were going to be my first." "But I don't want to." "I'm sorry." "You've been lying to me all this time?" "Just in the beginning." "Not after that." "I don't believe you."

"Who told you to stop?" "Can you walk?" "Ulises..." "Don't ever do that again." "We're your family." "Here you go." "Have some water." "Did they beat you?" "I won't let anyone hurt you." "Take it easy." "I want to go home." "Well, that's not possible." "Why not?" "Because you're staying here to work with us." " No." "Andrea, you'd better do it willingly." "From now on, your name will be Andrea." "Ok?" "Son..." "Ulises?" "Go with your uncles and cousins." "I don't want to go." "Why not?" "Help me see Sofia." "Eugenia!" "Please, go!" "EUGENIA!"

"But If I find out you've seen her, the deal is off." "Got it?" "500 pesos for a fuck." "Anal sex is 100 more," "Same thing for a blow: 100 more." "You have to make at least 6,000 a day." "At the very least!" "Do all you can to get that money." "Or you'll have problems." "And don't even think about keeping the extra cash." "Do you know how to use a condom?" "This is the tip..." "You squeeze it." "You put it on." "Like this." "If there's air left, you smooth it down ...with your fingers." "OK?" "Don't worry." "Later you can watch me and see how it's done."

"Take one every day before coming here." "What for?" "So that you can forget." "Marcos can't find out we were here." "How have you been?" "Same old thing." "We're leaving." "Negrito, now that you're picking up more chicks, you gotta be smarter and faster than them." "remember this." "It's like a fight." "Always attack first." "We have to get you some nice merchandise, like that one." "Settle down." "Don't let them see you cry." "Oh my God, I've fallen in love again." "Look at all these beautiful ladies." "Wow." "Look how beautiful." "Oh, you're so pretty." "I love your smile." "Thank you." "Open the door!" "It's open!" "Open it." "You see?" "You can leave whenever you want." "Just remember: they know where your mom and brother live." "You don't want anything bad to happen to them." "Do you have the time?" "Sorry!" "I'll buy you another one." "No, that's fine." "Thank you." "It won't take long." "Be right back." "Can I have an ice cream, please?" "Thanks." "Thank you." "Are you waiting for someone?" "A girlfriend." "My name is Ulises." "What's yours?" "Marta." "Thank you for the ice cream." "I have to go." "Why?" "My friend is here." "Hey... would you like to go out with me?" "I can give you my number, or you can give me yours." "As you wish." "Ulises!" "Here's my number." "I'll leave so you can talk." "Welcome, guys." "I'll bring you some drinks." "Take care, Tomasito." "How are you doing?" "Great." "It seems Negro got a girl." "Really?"

"What money?" "The money that asshole owes us." "Stay out of this." "I'll handle it." "Let me go see him." "I said no Hector." "I can make him my bitch." "I know, but leave it to me." "Someone is looking for you." "Sir." "I'll be right back." "Gotta check on business." "Why are you like this in front of dad?" "Cut the bullshit!" "Really, cut this bullshit!" "Once you start making money, you'll love it." "I know what I'm saying." "Check out these babes!" "I'm gonna get you some booties." "Hurry up!" "You're late!" "Hurry up!" "They're waiting for you!" "What's wrong?" "Why aren't you changing?" "I have a problem." "What is it?" "I got my period." "Don't worry!" "We can fix that." "This will stop the bleeding." "But it burns, eh!" "You fold it like this  and then, you slowly stick it in." "Alright?" "Are you OK?" "It hurts a lot." "Yeah, I know." "Do you want me to help you with your hair?" "What are you thinking?" "My family." "I miss them." "I miss mine too." "My brother Diego is the one I miss the most." "How old is he?" "Three." "I have a one year old son." "His name is Luis." "Where is he?" "He's with my pimp's family." "They take care of him, and let me see him once a month if I'm good." "How did you end up here?" "I was working at a jewelry shop in Tijuana, and I started dating a guy..." "Then, one time..." "I don't like people who smoke." "Sorry." "I'm sorry I didn't know." "I was kidding." "Come on!" "Don't be like that." "I was kidding." " So, can I smoke?" "Yes." "It doesn't bother you?" "No!" "I mean it." "Do you have siblings?" "One sister." "Do you work?" "What do you do?" "I'm working at a stationary shop." "I graduated from high school, but I don't know what I want to do." "What about you?" "I dropped out of high school, and now I help my dad with the business." "What kind of business?" "He sells cars in the States, and I help him in Tijuana." "Do you like cars?" "Sport cars." "I want to get out!" "Not yet." "I'm all wet." "Me too." "It's cold!" "Do you come here often?" "Yeah." "Do you?" "No." "Why not?" "My parents never want to..." "I mean they are never together, so we never go out." "I'm all wet, look!" "Me too!" "I look taller than you!" "Look that one!" "No!" "Very good, Jessica." "Andrea?" "Karla?" "Karla..." "Karla, come here." "What's wrong with you, cunt?" "Where's the fucking rest!" "?" "Don't you realize I'm responsible for you all?" "Fucking cunt, why are you doing this to me?" "What are you doing, Negro?" "Have you called Marta?" "No." "What are you waiting for?" "Get me the phone, you're so fucking slow." "She has to read a message from you when she wakes up." "Let's see..." "Good... morning... beautiful." "I spent... the whole... night..." "thinking... of... you." "Send." "There we go." "Guess what?" "What?" "I've got something for you." "It's the money Sofia made this month." "This is your share." "Congrats, Negrito." "What?" "Don't you want it?" "Fuck man!" "Cut the bullshit!" "It's your money!" "You earned it!" "She earned it." "I'll save it for her." "Where's mom?" "Outside." "Well, this is Ulises... a friend." "This is my sister." "Hi." "Nice to meet you." "Wait here." "I'm gonna get my mom." "Nice to meet you, I'm Francisca Avila." "Ulises Camargo, my pleasure." "I'm here to ask your permission to date your daughter." "Earn her trust." "Treat her like no one has ever done." "Once she is hooked take her out of her comfort zone." "Move to Rosarito, so you can start working her there." "I like your shirt." "I just got it." "The sneakers, too." "Finally, you got rid of the old ones!" "They were all worn out!" "I got a watch, too." "Yeah!" "I was looking at it!" "So beautiful!" "And a chain!" "You gotta make her share your opinions." "Get her used to the good life!" "Do you like it?" "May I?" "Yeah." "After a week or two, you'll have brainwashed her." "That's when you make your move." "...don't let her think for herself." "I'd do anything for you." "Anything." "And you would you do anything for me?" "Do you live with your parents?" "With my mom and my sister." "My parents split up." "What do they do?" "My mom has a cybercafe at home." "And my dad works at a repair shop." "That's great!" "Look, Hector is here!" "Son, I'm glad you're here!" "Hi Dad." "Fabiolita, you look gorgeous as always!" "How's the baby?" "Look, this is Martita." "Hey, how are you?" "Fine." "I've heard so many things about you!" "Is Negrito treating you right?" "Yes." "Really?" "Great!" "I'm glad." "Bravo!" "54 years old, can you believe it, sweetie?" "I don't seem 54, do I?" "You don't!" "I was a kid just yesterday!" "Dad... you're quite old!" "Shut up!" "He's so rude, isn't he, Martita?" "Sweetie, do you like dogs?" "Sorry I was feeling sick." "I don't know what came over me, but I'm ok now." "I'm sorry I didn't call you before." "Yeah, Ulises was busy." "He's not here right now." "He's working." "I told you already, he sells cars." "Why do you want to talk with him?" "I'm happy." "I don't know." "Soon I promise." "Why now?" "I can't now." "Right now is difficult." "Mom, gotta go." "Love you both." "Bye." "Andrea..." "Five minutes, Jorge." "If I'm not here, go pick me up." "Sofía..." "Do you like it?" "My dad and my brother say it's better for the business if I stay in Rosarito." "They say we can make more money here." "But... are you gonna be here for long?" "I'll go to Tijuana every weekend." "Or you can come." "It's not so far." "Dunno." "Why?" "Don't you think it's too little time?" "I can visit you in my free time." "Or you could stay here with me." "Marta!" "Marta!" "Do you want me to take you home?" "I don't want to go." "What about your mom?" "She's never home." "And when she is, she sleeps all day." "I'm sick of it." "With Dad it's the same." "I don't want to live with him anymore." "Do you want to stay here?" "No, no, no." "Get dressed." "My name is Daniel." "What's your name?" "Andrea." "Look, Andrea..." "I'm looking for her..." "Have you seen her?" "Her name is Cristina." "She's my daughter." "Please." "Are you sure." "Yes" "Someone saw her at a bar, downtown, a few days ago." "It's been over a year since she went missing." "How old are you?" "18." "Are you sure?" "Yes." "Do you have your I.D.?" "No, but I'm of age." "I swear." "For real." "Don't go!" "My name is not Andrea, it's Sofia." "And I'm 14 years old." "No, man." "Nothing was missing, dumbass." "I gave you all the documents, asshole." "What do you mean a document is missing?" "Look, asshole, you got three days to fix this shit." "Three days or I'll kick your fucking ass." "What happened?" "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "What do you mean nothing?" "Come on!" "Tell me!" "I got ripped off here at Rosarito's shop." "I lost some fucking serious cash." "What are you going to do?" "Dunno." "Can you get some back?" "No." "Hi." "Hi." "How come you're so happy?" "This weekend I finally get to see my son." "Let's hope they let me have him longer." "Hey..." "Can I tell you something?" "Today is my birthday." "Really?" "Take this." "Thank you." "Come on guys, choose." "It's gonna be fine!" "Chill!" "it's fine." "Hi." "Hi there!" "Fine, what's your name?" "Hi, babe." "What's your name?" "America." "You can call me John." "You're gorgeous." "Thanks." "Hi." "Hi, babe." "Hi." "Come in!" "Your mom came to Rosarito with me." "How is she?" "At first she didn't believe me." "I had to show her your pictures." "She wanted to go to the police, but I told her that was dangerous." "So?" "I don't know." "But we're not leaving you alone." "They're watching me all the time." "Everywhere." "I'm gonna come more often to see you." "I'm gonna help you talk to your mom." "Luisito, look, the ocean!" "I think he likes it!" "That's more than enough." "Come here." "I got you something." "Wear them!" "We should go now." "Say goodbye." "Bye, Luis." "What was that?" "What's that?" "Hello?" "I still don't know." "Yes." "Listen, asshole, you ain't threatening me." "You ain't touching her, motherfucker." "If you get close to her, I kill you, motherfucker." "What?" "Yeah." "No, no." "Yeah, I'm coming." "What happened?" "Where are you going?" "I'm gonna talk to the folks I owe cash to." "What!" "?" "Now?" "Who are they?" "Some dudes I know." "But... why now?" "They wanna talk to me." "Be right back." "I'll just say I'll pay them soon." "Stay here." "Don't come out." "Is it Marta?" "Don't answer." "Let it ring." "Almost every day I go out in the morning." "Before they pick me up." "Some guys from the neighborhood watch us all the time." "They get paid to watch us closely." "They are not the only ones." "People in the neighborhood know we are there against our will." "But they do nothing about it." "For fear." "Do you think someone can help us?" "The landlady is really scared." "Plus, there's always someone watching her at night." "Where do you go when you go out?" "I just go out to pick up groceries and do laundry." "Maybe the lady at the grocery store" "Maybe she would help me." "It's $54." "They don't always follow me all the way to the store." "Sometimes I go out and there's no one outside." "Usually I go back to the hostel all alone." "How far is the hostel from the store?" "It's about... 5 blocks away." "Why?" "If I don't pay tomorrow, they'll kill me." "How much you owe them?" "Too fucking much." "Can someone lend you some money?" "Maybe just some of it." "Your dad?" "Your brother?" "They don't have money." "I don't know what to do." "I gotta give them some tomorrow." "What are you thinking?" "Would you do anything for me?" "Yes." "I ran into a buddy..." "Pedro." "He's doing really great." "He's making lots of money." "I told him the problems I'm having." "You know what he told me?" "He said his girlfriend worked as a prostitute once." "He told me about the place she went." "They made some serious cash." "What do you think?" "About what?" "Would you do something like that to help me pay off?" "Are you for real?" "Yes." "No." "It would be only once!" "Absolutely not." "If you don't do it, they'll kill me." "I help you out with anything but this." "Are you sure?" "Marta..." "Help me." "Please." "Come on, Negro!" "Cheer up." "Those fucking cunts never accept at first." "You gotta do a better job at brainwashing them." "You gotta make them feel the danger, for real." "With Marta it'll be fucking hard." "Nah, bro!" "Put pressure on her, and you'll see." "I don't wanna wait." "I waited too fucking long, man." "Bro help me out, man." "You gonna go to the store, as always." "There, a cab will be waiting for you in the back." "We paid the lady to help us." "Got it?" "Yes." "Calm down." "What if something goes wrong?" "Everything will be fine." "Marta... what happen?" "Ulises..." "I want to go back to Tijuana, with my mom." "Move aside!" "Walk!" "NO!" "HELP ME!" "WALK, BITCH!" "You're fucking working!" "NO, HELP!" "You think you're running away!" "?" "Stupid whore!" "Teach her a lesson." "Ulises..." "HELP!" "Don't stop, Negro." "No, please." "Don't stop." "Dad..." "I took Marta to work at Pedro's hotel." "I kept my promise." "I want you to give Sofia back to me." "Why do you want her?" "You could have any other bitch." "No, dad." "She is different." "I'm going to marry Sofia ." "But you disobeyed me." "I told you I didn't want you to see her." "You really thought I wasn't going to find out?" "But I brought you an another one." "I'm going to miss you." "Me too." "Come with me." "I can't leave my son." "But one day..." "My real name is Ines." "What's your name?" "Sofía." "Here..." "So that you can remember me." "Andrea, come here!" "Someone is looking for you." "We're leaving." "Why?" "Dad is releasing you so you can live with me." "You're gonna help my wife with the chores and the children." "Know that you'll be there all day long, eh!" "I want you to help Ulises with everything he needs." "Do you understand?" "HEY!" "I'm talking to you!" "Yes." "We're gonna be watching you." "Ulises, if she screws up, we'll send her back to the whore house." "Don't leave her alone." "Do you understand?" "Come here." "I bought this house for us." "Don't you like it?" "My son bought this house with his money." "Thank him." "Say 'thank you'!" "Thank you." "What can I do to make you happy?" "What do you want?" "I'd do anything." "I wanna see my mom." "We can't do that right now." "Why?" "I don't want you to go back to the whore house." "Now that you're out..." "You should be grateful to my son for everything he's done for you." "Do you really think no one took your place at the brothel?" "You know what we need here, Dad?" "What?" "A few motorbikes." "No, dear!" "I'm scared of those." "Eugenia, you're scared of everything!" "No, I'd like to buy a Jeep, for example" "You want a Jeep for what?" "To go uphill, to hang out." "You should go uphill walking, Eugenia!" "It's for exercising, what do you call it, 'hiking'?" "What are you talking about?" "Cut the bullshit!" "You mean rappel?" "Climbing!" "Do you like climbing, Fabiolita?" "Fabiola wants a bike." "We're building our ranch here, what do you think?" "I like it." "For the kids..." "It's beautiful." "The thing is to be in touch with nature." "You'll see when we have the ranch," "..." "Fabiolita, you'll see!" "Our home!" "When will we have it?" "Soon, my son, we just need to make some time, off work." "When there's work, you gotta make the most of it." "Now we have too much work, so..." "We'll have time later." "I dream of having my house!" "A ranch with animals and all that?" "Fabiola, a ranch with no animals ain't a ranch!" "Where did you hear that?" "I love animals!" "Don't you like animals, Fabiola?"
