"Angel of the Night" "One ticket, please." "Thank you." "Good Afternoon." "Miss Ana?" "Please." "Thank you." " Good afternoon." " Good afternoon." "Please come in." "This way." "Excuse me, Madam?" "Wait a minute." "Please, this way." "Excuse me." "This is the lady." " Good morning." " Good morning." " What's your name?" " Ana." "I thought the agency would send the same girl." "She was nice." "She is traveling." "This is the deal, baby." "The teacher of the kids is in hospital." "She is very old and she gets worse every day." "I don't know what to do about her." "I have to go to a reception in Rio today." "And two others, Saturday and Sunday, in Brasília." "Those parties of the queen." "You must have read she's here." "I know." "I don't want to leave the kids without someone in charge." "Beatriz lives nearby but she can't sleep here." "She has a husband, children and her own problems." "And the other girls don't know how to deal with the kids." "They don't stay awake." "They're irresponsible." "Also, on Saturdays they want to hang around and have fun." "Anyway, I can't trust them." "I've called your agency many times." "I got used to this service when my husband was in the USA." "It's very good." "The kids always have more respect for someone they don't know." " Have you graduated, like the other girl?" " Not yet." "I'm still studying." " What?" "Psychology?" " Yes." "Good." "Then I'll feel more at ease." "Coffee, Beatriz." "You'll have to pay attention to something." "Marcelo sometimes has sleepwalking episodes." "If that happens, don't do anything." "Just go after him, he will get back to his bed eventually." "If he falls, you'll hold him." "Just that." "He'll go back to his room." "There's something else..." "Ah, wait a minute." "Coffee for the lady, please." "Beatriz will give you the girl's medicine." "She must take it at 8:30." "And sometimes she gets sick, you know." "Hello, Silvia!" "It's me." "I'm in a hurry." "It's completely crazy." "I will dress and be right there." "Both?" "How did you know that?" "It's impossible!" "What?" "Yes, we will drive right to Brasília." "Cuz Rodrigo hates airplanes." "He's a coward." "Oh, we'll sleep a little during the journey." "Dr. Rodrigo's baggage." "Wait, son." "It's Marcelo, he's here." "Well, it will be fun then." "Rodrigo hasn't mentioned that." "No, thank you." "I hope they haven't invited those tacky people." "That was awful!" "I don't know how such things happen." "Why is there a festival?" "Anyway..." "Ah, it's possible..." "Wait a minute, Silvia." "Son, let mommy answer the telephone now, please." "Hello?" "Ah, it's you." "Nice, I wanted to talk with you." "Silvia is going too, now listen..." "What will you wear?" "Well, I'll dress in black." "Black works for me." "Hello, Silvia?" "Wait a minute, I'm talking on the other line." "No, it will take just a minute." "Beatriz, take the girl to her room." "Later you can see the house and play with the kids." "Beatriz will inform you if there are any problems." " I'll talk to you tonight." " Alright." "Hello?" "Yes, you can talk now." "This is your room." "Telephone." "Water." " This is your bathroom." " Thank you." " Excuse me." " Good afternoon." "I am..." " I know." " Have you talked to my wife?" " Yes." " Do you want to sit down?" " No, thank you." "Excuse me." " Do you need something?" " No, thanks." " What's your name?" " Carolina." "My name is Ana." "And we will play a lot together." "Now!" "Don't forget to pay the bills." "And send the telegrams." "Ah, you also need to pay for having the gate fixed." " I will call you today to see if it's all right." " Ok." "Hi kid!" "Bye." "Stay cool." "Beatriz will write down everything you need to know." "Let's go, I'm late." " Bye, dad!" " Bye!" "See you later." "Behave, ok?" "Bye!" "I'll call you soon." "Don't forget to bring the stuff from the supermarket tomorrow morning." "Tomorrow at 7:30, right here." " Where do you live?" " In Rio." " Where in Rio?" " Far off." " Is it cool, there?" " So, so." " Do you go to the beach?" " Not much." "I can't." " Why not?" " I have to work." "Work on what?" "I'm a teacher." "And I do research, statistics." "What?" "When you finish serving you can go." "Where's your sister?" "She's watching TV." "She has to take this medicine at 9 o'clock." "Please, don't forget." "Ok, I'll remember." "Lady, it's time for me to go." "Can you come here for a minute, please?" "I want to introduce you to the night watchman." "He must be coming in a few." "Cool!" " Take care of the kids." " What do you mean?" "The kids are fragile..." " ...brittle." " They don't seem so." "Mr. Augusto." " Augusto, get me!" " Come here!" "Hold on!" " Faster, go!" " You are heavy." "That's enough." "Let's go." "Good night." "This is the girl who will take care of the kids, Mr. Augusto." " Good night." " Good night." "She has all the instructions, but if she needs something you can help her." "Yes Madam, no problem." "Hi!" "I'm at your service." "Good night then." "If there's a problem, Mr. Augusto knows where I live." "It's right after that house covered with ivy." "Tomorrow at 7:00 I'll be here." " Good night." " Good night." " See you later, Mr. Augusto." " Good night, Mrs. Beatriz." "It's time for bed." "Let's go!" " If you need something , I'll be outside." " Thank you." "Good night." "Will you stay with us forever?" "I can't stay forever." "Why?" "I have lots of things to do." "What?" "Work..." "Study..." "Statistics?" "Miss..." "Is everything alright?" " All right." " Hi, Augusto!" "Time for bed." "Let's go." "Go to sleep." " See you tomorrow." " Good night." " Can you tell us a story?" " No, no!" " Why?" " It will be the same bullshit as always." "Let's play chess?" "We can play tomorrow." "Now let's sleep." " Hi." " Ah, it's you." " It's good here." "It's very good for me." "I spent months in the middle of the noise and dirt." "Sometimes I forget there are places like this." "With me it's the opposite." "I think I forgot about the rest of it." "And I don't even want to remember." "I would like to live here." "In a place like this." " I've lived here for 23 years." " 23 years?" "That was when I was born." "Those trees..." "I planted many of them." "I used to be a gardener." "But then I got sick..." "Very sick..." "And then the boss put me as a night watcher." "And is it better?" "At first the night made me feel bad" "Now I'm used to it." "I used to have... chills..." "I sweat all night..." "Sometimes I wanted to cry." "And it wasn't fear." "It was some kind of sadness..." "I can't explain." "I'm fine now... but I always get eager before dawn." "Now the time passes quickly." "I keep walking through the garden, thinking..." "And it seems like it's my garden." "But I don't like the house." "I always say my boss' grandfather built the wrong house in the right place." "I prefer my little house 1000 times." "It's fine for me, my wife and the kids." "I don't even bring 'em here." " But it's a beautiful house." " It is." "But it's not "friendly"... like this..." "I already spent 3 months without entering the house." "Just patrolling outside." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Who are you?" "What do you want?" "Hello?" " Do you need something?" " No." "I'm just taking some air." "I'm making some coffee in the kitchen." "Do you want some?" "No, thank you." "It's fresh coffee." "Come in." "I use to bring my coffee in a thermos flask." "But now it's broken." "And while I don't buy another one," "Mrs. Beatriz told me to use the kitchen to make coffee." " Do you want some?" " No, thanks." "It's bread with cheese and guava paste." "Take some!" "My wife always gives me much more than I can eat." " You seem to be nervous." " No." "I'm just tired." " Why don't you rest?" " I need to study." "I have to finish some work for college." "I'll finish it while I'm here." " Excuse me." " Sure." "If you need something, just call me." "What happened?" "Are you alright?" "There's someone calling." "It's the second time." "It's an awful voice..." " Saying things..." " What they say?" "That they'll kill me." "Today." "It's a silly joke." "They used to do it all the time around here." "I don't know..." "I don't know..." "It's an awful voice!" "The first word I heard made me shiver." "I was frightened even before I understood anything." "It was awful!" "This is strange." "I don't know what's happening to me." "Forget about it, lady." "You're right." "It'llbe better if you try to rest for a while." "Yes..." "I must check the kids." "Come here!" "What are you doing here?" "This is my place." "I come here when I don't want to be found." "It doesn't scare you?" "Sometimes." "But I like being afraid." "It's good to stay in the dark waiting for the fear." "Do you want to see it?" "Listen..." "When everything is quiet, the chills come." "That's enough." "Let's get out of here." "Come." "Right, now go to sleep." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Someone laughed and hang up." "Who lives in that house?" "It's closed." "The family lives in Rio, they only come in summer." "The servants live there." "I know what you are thinking, but they're decent people." "What are you doing there?" "I can't sleep." "I want to play." "No way!" "Go to your bed!" "Can I play with my scooter?" "At this time of the night?" "Please?" "Hold it!" "Hello?" "Ah, yes..." "Sure!" "Yes, Mrs. Raquel." "She is right by my side." "Ok." "I'll give her the phone." "Good night." "Good evening, Mrs. Raquel." "Yes, it's all right." "We're in the living room." "The boy woke up and asked..." " Be quiet, Marcelo!" " No, he's going back to his bedroom." "You can keep calm." "Ah, you will call again." "Right." "You can call anytime." "Ok." "Good night Mrs. Raquel." "Forget about this joke and try to rest." "Nothing ever happened in this house, and it won't, with the grace of God." "Stay cool because I am here." "Besides..." "I am ready." "Come!" "You can't get me!" "Marcelo?" "What's wrong, Marcelo?" "Marcelo?" "It was just a joke." "Let's go to sleep, Marcelo." " Good night, Augusto." " Good night." "Sleep, Marcelo." "And try not to wake again." "You too." "Go to sleep." "Marcelo!" "What's that?" " You little bastard!" " It's a joke!" "Just a joke!" "Go to your room, go!" "Lets go." "Sleep, Marcelo." "And don't wake again, alright?" " Who told you to do this?" " Nobody, I just wanted to scare you." "I'm sorry." "I was just kidding." "Sleep."
