"That this is not hungarian!" "It's an joke." "This guy, he is amusing!" "He's clever!" "You Spaniard, you have to be a little lighter." "You're very slow." "Well, I'll wait for you." "If anything, I'm downstairs." "Oh, I was forgetting!" "A gift from the house." "What's this?" "The change, the change!" "Oh, the change!" "Ay, ay, ay!" "Well, if anything..." "There you have one." "I'll be downstairs, call me." "Rest, see you later." "It's okay." "I don't know how to read, but I know how to count." "I don't know how to read, but I know how to count." "In Buenos Aires." "In Buenos Aires, that we are here, fuck!" "That we are here, fuck!" "I know it's not a beautiful situation." "Fabrizio, let's speak Spanish so the girl doesn't understand."

"I'm not saying it in a racist way, because, come on, I'm not." "If not, look at me, here I am." "In love with a sudaca." "Sorry, Ernestito." "Did you ratify your degree?" "Tomorrow, tomorrow I'll put myself onto it." "Careful, that without papers you can't do a thing." "The Mother Country made child abandoment." "No, no." "Definetely, definetely." "And what, do you have a place to stay?" "Well, I was thinking of staying with you for a days, without abusing." "Till I put myself onto it a bit." "Tomorrow, I was thinking of doing the papers." "Tomorrow you will take care of everything, the papers, the degree?" "How many hours does tomorrow day have?" " 24." " 24, it's a normal day." "It won't be enough." "You need a day of 200 hours, Ernesto, you're going to die." "Let me fall, and I put myself onto it." "Rest easy." "What a loss, hey!" "What a loss for the country!" "The great argentinian architect Ernesto... has to leave his motherland for lack of opportunities." "has to leave his motherland for lack of opportunities" " I didn't break." " Yeah, you broke." "I'm searching for options only." "No, you broke." "You think I don't know what it must be to you to ask me a favor to me?" "Humilating." "So humilating, but, what are you going to do?" "Life is this way." "You know what I remember, I remember perfectly the day I showed you the project of the multisport and you laughed your ass off on my face, Ernesto." " I didn't laugh my ass off." " Yes, yes." "You laughed your ass off on my face." "Well, what do I know?" "We were kids." "You know how it is." "One thinks that you take on the whole world." "Life changes, well, it changes you." "It brokes you, and the same guy that you laughed of years ago now the guy could laugh of you." "But he doesn't do it because he shows to have integrity, to have elegance." "And doesn't want to humilliate the guy in his failure." "Though he could." "Cheers, darling." "Cheers, my love." "Sorry, but..." "This was a mistake." "Eh!" "Sebastián!" "Eh!" "What's the matter with you?" "Where are you going?" "I'm going to take my stuff and look for an hotel." "Oh, the mister got offended now, sorry!" "But look, I don't want to speak of Argentina to a guy that left 15 years ago." "And thank God I left!" "Nobody cared a shit I left!" "And now I have to save the life to every starved to death Argentinian that comes to Spain." "You don't have to save me nothing, you heard me?" "If you're escaping from Argentina because it doesn't give you money." "You come to look for money to Spain." "You don't have a feeling for Spain." "What a crap of a feeling did my old man had when he went to Argentina?" "If he didn't knew where the shit it was." "He went to look for a life, not create a country." "Bravo!" "Bravo, Salvatore." "For the Spanish inmigrants that come to this capital searching for liberal professions the best they can do is to process as soon as possible the ticket to Spain." "And what are the liberal professions?" "Liberal, liberal is the... the naked dancers." "Naked." "Like, like black chicks." "Black, white, naked." "I'm leaving, guys."

"Juliusz, liberal." "Good, good." "Mr. Olaya!" "Mr. Olaya!" "Yes?" "I'm sorry but they can't receive you today." "I've been waiting for two hours." "Yes, I'm sorry." "Have they informed you of the equivalences for the degree?" "No, well, not here." "Then it's that it's complicated." " Come in, please." " Excuse me." "With this price you won't find anything better." "You should hurry because this loft is going to be rented fast." "When you want it, it will be gone." "With the romantic air, perfect for the newcomer." "Besides, besides, besides..." "You can see the roofs of Madrid." "The roofs of Madrid or two roofs of Madrids?" "They're tiles, aren't they?" "And they are in Madrid." "Well, as I said." "Here's my card." "And when you've decided you go to my office with the documentation and we make the contract." "What documentation?" "The papers, the papers that prove that you're in Spain legally." "Because, are you argentinian?" "Yes, yes." "What a shame!" "A country so big and rich and they're killing themselves there." "Anyways, this way please." "Long queue, isn't it?" "Argentina." "Argentina." "Kwaiku." "Oh, yes, no..." "I don't know it, sorry." "What zone of Africa?" "No, Kwaiku me." "Oh!" "Sorry, Ernesto."

"I'm talking seriously." "And what do I know?" "For how they treat them, he must be." "This one everytime he comes, comes to see González." "How everytime he comes?" "I've been a month here and I've never seen him." "But for you a month is a day, a day is a month." "You keep talking the same as if you were a piece of coal, you don't change." "I can't eat this shit." "You have to come with me to some place." "What did you say?" "If your food is crap it's not my fault, I have to eat." "I helped you a lot of times." "Can't you do me this favor?" "It has to be now?" "Stop, stop." "This is no way to occupy the lunch of a person." "You owe me one." "Where are you going?" "Where are you going now?" " You leave." "You leave." " No, no." "If you have problems at work, say it's my fault." "The mother that birthed me!" "You are insane!" "Come here." "What are you doing?" "I don't know, you leave." "No, listen to me!" "Don't mess with these people." "Let's go, come on, I'm leaving." "Morning." "No, darling, to beg to the church." "Gemma!" "Gemma, I'm going to church, are you coming with me?"

"You look nice in the uniform, you should be proud." "Only in the most refined homes girls have an uniform like this." "And you leave this, that when I return I fix it." "Yes?" "Kiss to the aunt." "In the other one." "Good." "The principal told me that I decide." "They get out of it and throw it to me, because I get things done." "But today I can't confirm anything, because I'm up to here with work." "Besides, I don't thing you have many chances to get the job." "A man here it's not normal, the things they would say." "Well, this is the courtyard." "And this is the dining room." "And the kitchen." "How are you doing, Carmela?" "How are you?" "Hello, Leticia." "Are you in La Boca?" "Yes, yes, we're in La Boca."
