"So you're hurried now?" "What are you doing here?" "Everything's wrong." "You're fucking up." "You do everything wrong." " Hey, listen, it was all fine" " No, it's not." "We can try and find a way to work it out." "There is no way to work it out." "Pick up your stuff, and get out." "Or you'll be in deep shit." "Hey, listen." "Can't we work it out?" "No, we can't work it out." "The way you are doing things..." "we can't work it out, so..." " But the machine works fine." " No, it doesn't." "The machine is bust, you didn't assemble it right." "A big fuck- up." "We left everything working..." "we'll just try to solve this." "Let's see if we can try and solve it with your boss... besides, you are a mess." "Look at you, the way you dress to come here." "It's not right, you don't have your shoes." "You have nothing, no tools... no way." "You leave your stuff lying around." " It's not working." " Listen." "One thing at a time..." "We'll solve the problem with the machine so we can go on working." "That's what we are here for." "Come on, Rulo!" "He's nuts!" "Give me a break!" "I left it in good working order." "He gave me all that shit." " He's just mad about something." " Mad?" "No..." " Something makes him nervous." " Maybe, yeah..." "What a mess!" "How can this be my fault?" " You can't work with this shit." " Easy, Torres, calm down." "That asshole Sanchez, he gave me shit, and this works fine." "MUNDO GRUA" " This is great!" " They're putting lots of dough in this." "Where are we going, Torres?" " What do you want with me?" " Cut it out." "Are you scared?" "Come on." "The terrace is here." "This is where it gets difficult." "Climb steadily." "Easy... slowly." " Is this safe?" " Yes." "It's a hard climb." "This is it, Rulo." "That's the crane there." " The building site is down there." " Amazing." " You have to be very careful." " I can see that." "I can see." "I'll introduce you to Coca." "This is great!" "Coca..." "Coca!" "Hi, this is Rulo, the man I told you about." " Hi, Rulo." "How is it going?" " Fine." "Nice to meet you." "He'll be working with us." "He's learning." " How do you feel up there?" " Like a bird." " Hello." " How are you?" "Fine, what can I eat?" "I have hotdogs, hamburgers and "milanesas"." ""Milanesas"?" "I'll take some "milanesas"." "Wait a second." " OK... want some tomato?" " Yes." " Lettuce?" " Yes." "And some salt as well." "The salad is dressed." " Smells good." " What a sandwich!" "Can't compare with the sandwiches you see around." "They leave them in the freezer for weeks." "It gets sticky." "You do your work well." " Congratulations." " Thanks." " Who is it?" " It's me, mum..." "As soon as I'll learn they'll give me a new category." " Then I'll get a better salary." " That's good." "You know what, mum?" "It's nice being 300 feet up in the air." "That's what you say." "I wouldn't say that." "You are in danger up there;" "your mother worries about you." "...they'll destroy the Germans finish with the nazi control over Europe and guarantee a free world." "Good luck!" "Let's pray for God's blessing..." " I think we made love." " Can you repeat that?" "I don't think that's necessary." "It's clear enough for me..." "I dont want to see you again." " You won't!" " Ever!" "I really don't get it." "Why did all this happen?" "The 2nd war?" "Everything." " Every time you came to me I said no." " Meaning yes." " No!" "I meant no!" " Well, somebody here said yes." "Because I felt sorry for you..." "Take the pans off your ass, you fag!" "Do you wanna marry me?" "Come on, give me your hand..." "Why don't you come with us?" "Let's go for a ride!" "Come on, fat- ass!" " Who is it?" " It's me... what's up, dad?" "What time is it?" "Is there anything to eat?" "I got a new job." " But I am still learning." " Learning?" "You know Torres?" " He got me a crane." " Well done, Torres." "You know those building cranes... 300 feet tall." "It's OK." "And once I get the hang of it..." "I'll be there on my own, I can listen to the radio." "If I feel like farting, I can do it." "It's far out." ""Far out", that's how junkies talk." " These spaghetti are good." " I made them myself." "We are... having trouble with the band." "We can't rehearse, we have no money for recording..." " we are not playing well." " You're not playing well?" "Man, I haven't played for 15 years." "But if I'd play the bass now I could still make it talk." " I would." " It's a beat now." "Beat?" "What's a beat?" "Which of these things can you eat?" " Plate, pencil, bread or phone?" " Bread." "Another example:" "Which of these things is round?" " Book, brick, envelope, apple." " The apple, of course." "Breathe deep, your mouth open." " Do you smoke?" " Yes, a little." " How many?" " Thirty cigarettes a day." " Does it hurt?" " A little." " Back here?" " And on this side also." "You can get dressed." "Tell me... when you eat and then sit down, do you fall asleep?" "Sometimes I do, doctor." "The thing is..." "I eat late." "But when you get up the sleep fades away." " Absolutely." " That's called Pickwick Syndrome." " What?" " Pickwick Syndrome." "The thing is, the intestine compresses the diaphragm... processing the gasses badly and producing more carbon dioxide... which in turn will make you feel sleepy." "It's what we exhale, and being compressed you hold those gasses... and feel sleepy." "The important thing is, my friend, you have to trim down." "You are overweight." "You have to reduce some 40 to 50 pounds." "40 to 50 pounds?" "Yes, you should be at 200 pounds and you weigh 250 pounds." "You must see a nutritionist... change your eating habits, and you'll feel much better." "It's all the same problem." "Will this be an impediment for my job?" "I'll have to make a report, then the company will decide." "With this I move it that way... boom, running gear..." " Boom only." " Oh, boom only." "Slowly..." "Move it very gently." "That's right!" "You must get used to the height." "Slowly." "This button here you turns it on and this one turns it off." "Slowly, this one also needs gentle movements." "Torres, you know anything about blinds?" "What is it?" "I have to fix one, you know anything?" "It has to be disassembled." "It's got a latch, could be the plate." " You need to see it." " But there is nothing special..." "No, why?" "Your blind broke down?" "No... that chick around the corner." "She's got a drugstore." "When I went for the "milanesas" her blind was down." "I asked her what happened and she said it broke down." "Being the asshole I am, I said I'd fix it." "You really are an asshole." "And you'll fix it for her." " What could I do?" " Are you going to charge her?" "I can't charge her, poor thing." "She only sells a few sandwiches, I can't expect her to pay." "You are a real softie." "I didn't know... you were into charity." " I feel sorry for her." " I understand, it's OK." "She's alone, she works all day..." "I told her I'd go later." "I'll do her a favor." "I know what favor you'll do for her!" "Good for you!" "You are a champ!" "I fixed trucks, sold spares, always odd jobs." "You were always in construction or mechanical jobs." "No, I was a musician once." "Hand me the lube." "But that was just for fun." "No, we did well." "At one point we were doing well." "Remember that song, "Paco Camorra"?" "How could I forget "Paco Camorra", la, la, la..." "That was my band." "No... excuse me..." ""My band"?" " What band was it?" " Séptimo Regimiento." "I can't believe you played there." "You've got to be joking." " How could I." " You are pulling my leg." "Don't be silly." "Why should I lie to you?" " What did you do in the band?" " I played the bass." "You couldn't be the bass player." "He was skinny." "Half your size." "That was me, only now I am different." " So you got laid?" " No, Torres." "I went over, fixed her blind, we talked a bit, and I came back." " What could be wrong with this?" " The collector." "That's already been tested." "I told her about the days I played with Séptimo Regimiento." " So?" " She almost fainted." " She knew the band?" " She was a fan." "She's all yours, Rulo." " Torres, you're always..." " But of course!" "She also knew me." " From the band?" " Of course." "She has such a good memory." "This lady must have been pretty when she was young." "What do you mean, "young"?" " She's quite a girl." " Not that much." "What are you doing around at this time, Torres?" " What are you doing?" " Working." " A friend, Rulo." " Nice to meet you." "What is it?" "Walter, we want you to take a look at this." "He's doing a job and needs to solve it urgently." "The way I see it, the gas doesn't come through." " You tried that." "It didn't work" " Let me talk to him." "I'm also explaining..." "But you don't know shit..." "What is it?" "So?" " Look at that." " Look at that, my ass." " This was at your place." " Give me... this is what I smoke." "These are yours." "You throw your stuff all over." " And this?" " You were fucking around with it." "I didn't touch that bushing." "Don't give me that shit." "I saw you trying to make a ring out of it." "It was you who was trying to disassemble this..." " You are a mechanic?" " No, but..." "No, he's a musician." "I can get by..." "This is... "Paco Camorra"?" "You tell everyone?" "You are "Paco Camorra"!" " Good one!" "Sing us a song." " Some other day." "You still have those records?" "God knows where they are." "Three tokens, please." "What are you doing?" "Four thirty!" "Today is Tuesday, right?" "What are you doing?" "Come on, lazy bastard." "Here... when you go home give this to your mother." " Man..." " What?" " You are going to work now?" " Yes." "Can't you spare some money?" "You're never going to work?" "Here." " Bye." " Bye." "Well, easy now." "Don't be afraid." "Slowly." " Is this safe?" " Everybody here does this." " Easy, easy, don't look down." " Get the fuck out of here!" " This is the job." " Think so?" "Come on, don't be afraid." " OK, there I go." " C'mon, Rulo." "There I go..." "Slowly!" "Don't look down!" "Go on, chicken shit!" " And now what?" " Come back." "Come back, until you get used to it." "Don't look down." "Come on." "See?" " Easy, you'll get used to it." " Fuck off!" "Hello, how are you?" "How is that blind?" "Working beautifully!" "You should see it going up... perfect." " Good for you... how are you?" " Fine." "How's work?" " I'd say not too hot." " Not hot." "A this time of the month people don't even buy candy." "You must get bored when there is no work here." "I do, I do get bored here." "I was thinking... how about going to see a movie one of these nights?" "If it doesn't bother you." "No, of course, it doesn't bother me." "Just tell me when and I'll pick you up." " Could be... what is today?" " Tuesday." "Tuesday... what about Friday?" "Apparently they were two robbers." "And what did they steal?" "The TV, the stereo..." "they got all their stuff... and took some money, an Italian pension." "Poor people, they had nothing left." " Mum, you'll be OK with this now." " Hopefully yes." " Dad... dad... what's up?" " What is it?" " We got a gig to play with the band" " Really?" " But something tragic occurred." " What happened?" " Someone stole Robert's bass." " Really?" " Can we use your bass?" " What?" " Your bass?" " Are you crazy?" "You out of your fucking mind?" "I need it only once." "You'll get it back right after we play." "It's just sitting there." "No, it's been sitting there for 15 years, leave it." " It's just one day I need it." " Claudio, I said no!" " Don't give me that shit." " Don't give me that." "You know how difficult it is to get somewhere to play." "Cut it out, Claudio." "You want me to get real mad?" "OK, take it, take it!" "What a pain in the ass!" "This is a fucking mess." "You can fix it yourself if you don't like it." "Don't bust my chops." "Where is it?" " Look at this... remember?" " Of course I do." " I kicked some ass with this." " Not mine." "I can't remember you ever beating me." "I beat you every day." "You party too much, and your memory is shot." "Beating me..." "The only thing I ask is please look after it." "Yes, don't worry." "You know who made this bass, do you know its history?" "It was made for me by a Luthier, piece by piece." "Every single piece was made by this guy." " Do you like it?" " Looks good." " When is the show?" " On Friday." " I want it here on Saturday..." " Yes, don't worry." "I'll beat the shit out of you." " Don't worry, want to see the show?" " Fuck off!" "You like the songs." "No..." "let's go." "It's late and I want to go to sleep." "You got a bass!" "It's not a piece of shit, this is really something." "It was made by hand, piece by piece, it's hot stuff." "No better than the last one made by a Lorenzo." "He's an instrument maker, never mind his name." "Who is Lorenzo?" "A guy who makes good basses." "Who is it?" "Hello Adriana, it's me, Rulo..." " I'll be right down." " Ok." "Fucking shit!" "We are working here, asshole!" "I can't believe it." "I can't believe you still remember." "How could I forget?" "Every Saturday we'd go to the club." "We were some 20 guys and girls." "Every Saturday?" "Yes, sometimes we would go to a club in Flores..." "Bamboche." "Bamboche..." "You really do remember." "There's something we would always discuss." "The band was called "Séptimo Regimiento" because you were 7?" " Why?" " Just being curious." "No, two of us did our military service in the 7th Regiment." " Cheers, Adriana." " Cheers." "I drink to this meeting." " Are you OK?" " Yes." "Look!" "Ever see something like it?" "It's really beautiful, that's the Malta Cross." "I give you our main band tonight, "Los Atragantados"." "Stop it, asshole!" "Stop it, asshole!" "It was cool, really." "It was a riot..." "too much of a riot." "Do you wanna come to my place?" "I don't know..." " We could have a few drinks." " OK." "Come on, take it off." "Wait, what's the hurry?" "Come here..." " You got me all dirty." " Eat." " What's that?" " Feeling thirsty?" "Fucking shit!" "Let's see..." "Fix this, it's all fucked up." "It's fucked up." "What do you think this is?" "A fucking bordello?" "Dad..." "I picked her up..." "This isn't a fucking cabaret!" "I picked her up at the concert!" "Concert, my ass!" "Don't fuck around with me!" "Do you expect me to let her go, or take her to mum's place?" " Instead, you fuck me up." " Did you see that chick?" "I'll be back in forty minutes." "Everything must be quiet then." " Way to go, dad." " And take care." "Ingrid!" " What's up, Claudio?" " What's up, dad?" " How was it?" " Good." " Good?" "You look wasted." " Yeah..." "Hey, listen..." "What..." " This can't go on." " What do you want me to do?" "You come in at all times, you get me out of bed." "I work every day." "I have nowhere else to go." "What can I do?" "You have to do something." "Something." "You can't be dragging me out of bed all the time." "Then I can't do my work right." "You can do as you please, just leave me alone." "I can't take it any longer." " That's good." " I am so happy!" "I am happy because I am going to have company." "Why did he leave his family?" "I guess he likes you best." "Because you spoil him." "And I am happy to have him." " Hello, grandma." " How are you, Claudio?" " Fine." " Welcome." " Come in, I'll show you around." " Where con I leave this?" "Come with me, your room is ready." "You look tired, with all this stuff..." "Your clothes must be all wrinkled." " So, how's everything?" " Everything's fine." "Thank God." "This is your room, and welcome home." "Come in..." "This is the bedroom." "What do you think?" "It's nice." "There's an attic." "This is my two way TV..." "I can see it from this side..." "and then I turn it... and see it from the other side." " What do you think?" " Very nice." "And this?" "My literature." " That's my workshop." " I see." "This is the sofa." "I'm sorry, it's a mess." "You mean the dishes?" "I don't like doing the dishes either." "But I do like doing the dishes." "Only I let them pile up and wash them all together." "And I have a surprise." " How cute." "You look after them?" " I water them every day." " Don't you talk to them?" " No, I don't." "This is where we have those barbecues with the guys." "We do real good barbecues." "Do you like it?" "This is the carburator, it feeds the cylinder." "This is a car engine?" "No, this one makes electricity, here are the terminals." " What?" " The two terminals." "With this we can use a light bulb." "This fits here." "No, that's a tap valve." " Is this your boy?" " Let me see." "How cute!" "He's beautiful!" "He was 14, my boy." "Very cute, and this one?" "That's my mum, she's nice, my old lady." "Nice woman, do you have any more photos?" "I'll get them for you." " You like watching photos?" " I love it." "And this one?" "That photo!" "Come, we'll be more comfy here..." "Come, Adriana." "You were at least 60 pounds lighter here!" "Y think I was about 165 pounds then." " Time does fly!" " What's this?" " You are messing my hair!" " Look." "Claudio... hello, Claudio!" "Wake up!" " Good morning, Claudio." " Good morning, grandma." " Did you sleep well?" " Fine, yes." "Good." "Here is your breakfast." "You are feeding the chicken." "Good for you." "You have more bread here." "Then I'll make lunch for you." " I'll go in soon." " I'll wait with lunch ready." "Easy, Rulo!" "Don't push the stick." "To your right, that's it." "That's it, slowly." "Come on, more." "Slowly!" "Easy, easy, you idiot!" "Slowly, easy." "Hello." " She's Adriana, he's Walter." " Nice to meet you." "Make yourself at home." " Thanks, hello Torres?" " How are you Walter?" " Torres..." "David Copperfield." " Show him..." "Nothing here, there..." "Red!" "I hope the bunny didn't drink it all." "Come on, come on." "This chicken smells good." "20 years younger." " You looked good!" " And 40 pounds lighter." "This one looks good..." " This one you already know." " With the band." "It was a trio then." "You look like the actor..." " Elio Gul..." " Gould, Gould." " And this?" " This is my boy." "Look at this!" "It's great!" " This is with your group." " It's on a plane." ""Séptimo Regimiento"." "What a band!" "How was it?" "This one they gave away after each concert." " They asked for autographs." " They would give photos away." " What's up, Torres?" " What's up, boy." "You are wasted!" "Cheers, Claudio." "OK pal, you can climb down." " Who is it?" " I am Rulo." " Why?" " This is my shift, pal." "No, this is my shift." "I just got up here." "Who sent you here?" "Armando sent me, see?" "Armando told me I started today." "No, look, Armando sent me here." "We can talk it over, but this is my shift." "There must be a mistake." " I'm staying up here." " You got it wrong." "Armando, I went to the crane and I found a Gustavo there." "What's up?" "Gustavo is the only man I have." "What do you mean, the only man?" "You told me I was starting today with the crane." "I said you were starting this week but the medical reports came in... and the insurance company doesn't want you." "It's been two months." "Two months." "That's how long it takes to get the reports through." "How is it, then?" "First you tell me to work, and then you talk about insurance." "You take me for an asshole?" "I was quite clear." "Pipe down, will you?" "What do you mean, pipe down?" "It's easy for you sitting there!" "Of course I'm sitting here." "I am out of a job and you ask me to calm down." "That's the way things are." "There's nothing I can do." "Is that so?" "What the fuck is going on here!" " Get out." " Get out?" " Get out, my ass." " Fuck off, will you?" "No, I'm not going away." "Why should I?" "Because you no longer have a job, it's that easy." "Go have a coffee and think what are you going to do." " How do we find a solution?" " I don't know." "You find it." "...great sale at the San Justo shopping mall... at Juan Manuel de Rosas..." "Who is it?" "Torres?" "What is it?" "I'll be down in a second." "Comodoro Rivadavia?" "Don't you have an ashtray?" "This is a pigsty." "I have my mind on other things." "Listen, is it a sure job?" "What?" "Of course it is." "Sartori owes me many favors." "You go down there and you'll be working next day." "Perhaps I get there, they see my belly, figure out I'm sick... you know that picke, pickue." "You go there, fill in the forms, and you got a job." "That's it." "With a crane?" "Yes, an excavator, the most modern machines." "The one that eats backwards." "What can I say?" "Just want to know." " A lot can happen in two years." " Oh, yes." "Us, what'll happen to us?" "Don't worry." "I'll be here every two months." "And I'll by phoning you." "What else do you want?" " What else I want?" " What's wrong with you?" "There's nothing wrong with me." " Do you know where I'm going?" " South." "It's 1.300 miles." "Come down every two months?" "Call me on the phone?" " You expect me to come every day?" " Well, not every day." "You just go ahead, do your own thing." "When you return, if I'm around we'll talk it over." "In a few moments we shall begin the great parade... of the "Gaucho National Day"." " Want some?" " No thanks, mum." " Come on." " No, thanks." " What's wrong, Rulo?" " Nothing." " You don't look good." " I'm concentrating on the horses." "Does grandma eat this?" " No, it's bad for her liver." " Really?" " Yeah, she's not well." " Try and look brighter, Rulo." " It's alright, Daniel." " Cut it out!" "Your mum and everyone is worried about you." "He's not being good." "He comes in late, disheveled..." " He wanted to bring a girl home." " Don't worry." "Sometimes he plays football." "On Sundays he comes in tired and untidy." "And he doesn't want to shower." "These things are a bit too much for a grandmother." "Rulo, you do what Sartori tells you to." "Make me look good." " Don't worry." " Take care." " Good luck!" " Bye, bye!" "Claudio!" "One more second and I was gone." "Be good." "You too." "Take care." "Look after my old lady!" "Bye dad." " Is Mr. Sartori in?" " Yes, come in." "Hold on, hold on...!" "Wait a second!" "You know who takes the rap?" "Them and me." "You have... to fix this mess!" "You have to take the rap!" "That's what you are there for!" "That's what we are here for!" "Calm down, calm down!" " I'll be with you, Rulo." " No problem." "I'd like to see you up there, freezing, with nothing to eat." "I've been there myself." "The machine is all fucked up and we have to do it by hand." "The machine will be fixed in a couple of days." "And how is my friend Torres?" "Fine, fine... he's a good friend of mine." "He's good." "Still working with cranes?" " Yes, he helped me with that." " Give me a cigarette." " What's wrong, David?" " Just a minute." " Take his bags to the kitchen." " Alright." "Excuse me..." "Let me show you around." "This is my room." "There's light in the mornings, that window there..." " the sun wakes you up." " Nice." " Not luxurious, we get by." " Looks comfortable." "This is Ramón." "He sleeps all day." "In a few days he starts work." "I got him a job." "And the other boy is here." "Not again..." "Smoking and wanking." "Stop partying, the boys need to rest." "They are sleeping anyway." "I'll stop smoking, that's it." " Good night." " Hi, how are you?" "Come in to the kitchen." "Boys, this is a friend who'll be staying a couple of days." "Good evening." "Mr. Llama, Pedro, Carlitos, he's doing painting jobs, he's good." "And he's Miranda, a good boy." "That's it, Rulo." "You'll be OK here." "The thing is to get settled here with the boys." " I'll do my best." " It's just for a couple of days." "This one is always used by the newcomers." "It's used by all who come for the first time." " It's for good luck." " Thanks." "Sleep well, Rulo." " See you tomorrow." " See you tomorrow." "What's going on, Gabriel?" " This is a friend of mine, Rulo." " Nice to meet you." "Show him how to use the 320." "He's worked on bigger machines." "You're in good hands, Rulo." "What happened?" " You didn't accelerate." " Oh, it needs accelerating!" "Be careful!" "Don't worry." " Full name?" " Luis Margani." " Age?" " 49." " Married?" " Divorced." " References?" " Leave it blank." "There has to be something in his file." "The boss will be here later and he'll fill in the blanks." " Alright." " He'll tell you what to do." " Everything OK, Rulo?" " Of course." "I was afraid to come all the way and not get a job." "We are all friends here." "Don't worry, things will work out fine." "Hi, mum... how are you?" "Fine, fine." "Beautiful." "Comodoro is really something." "The place where I sleep is OK, and the food is good." "Listen..." "Listen, I got a job already." " Good morning." " Hi, Rulo." " Did you sleep well?" " Yes." " We're having a few "mates"." " Nice." " Did you get a job?" " Yes, I start today." " You got lucky." " Thanks God." " Where?" " Near Caleta... boys..." " You've got connections." " No." " What of "Séptimo Regimiento"?" " How do you know?" " Paco Camorra." " It's been a long time." "I don't really remember." "I better be going." "Bye." " Good luck." " Bye, Paco Camorra." "Let me explain what you have to do." "The soil is very loose here because of the landslides." "I'm going to ask you to build a talus." "A talus..." "We need a talus to build up this here." "Make sure it doesn't hit the ground, the tip of the pipe... so it doesn't get dirty." " Be very careful." " OK." "Don't worry." "Here is your machine." "It's all yours... a 325." " Shall I start?" " Yes." "Fuck!" "Not even water." "Boys, look what I found!" "I got them from the bosses in there." "You know whose are they?" "Just to calm the hunger." "We got to do something." " Rulo, come along." " Yes, of course." "I've got some bad news." "There's nothing on your lunch pail." "I'm trying to get through to get information." "We haven't eaten since 7 AM, and it's now close to 2 PM." "We're not going on 'til we get the lunch pail; we won't work." "We're working since seven in the morning." "I'll call on the radio to see what's up." " I am not going to work." " Alright, no problem." "Tell the bosses about our decision." "OK, no problem." "Rulo!" "Rulo, how is it going?" " What are you doing here?" " What's up, Rulo?" "What the fuck are you here for?" "What a surprise!" " How are you?" " Walter, my pal!" "How are you doing?" "How did you get here?" " Look at this." " What's this?" "We didn't exactly walk here." "What a sled!" "You came in this?" "You must be out of your minds!" "Which way, Rulo?" "I don't know the place yet." "Can't you suggest a place?" "I heard of some place called Laguna Seca." "It's like Valle de la Luna." "Let's go!" "How do we get to Laguna Seca?" "Go down 2 miles, make a right and you'll find a junction." "Turn left and you'll find a road..." "Then you'll have to ask, I am not sure." " How's the road?" " You'll have to ask there." " How's the job?" " Fantastic." "I told you." "The only thing, every day we have trouble with the food." " At least you do have a job." " But still, it's a mess." " What an asshole!" " You could warn us this sinks." "How could I know?" "This is dangerous." "You can make a path with these stones." "Those are not stones." " What are they?" " Shells." "Shells?" "It's volcanic stones." " No, they are shells." " Don't be dumb!" "It's a stone!" "It's calcarus or something." " Something wrong, Rulo?" " No, nothing." " Are you sure?" " Yes." " Bye, Walter." " Bye, Rulo." "Bye Torres." " Take care." " Have a good one." "Walter, drive carefully." "The highway is bad." "Don't worry, pal." "They owe us an explanation." "They can't feed us when and if they feel like it." "And then we have to walk back on an empty stomach, no water." "Our situation is very bad." "We have to understand it, you can see it yourselves." "Otherwise, they should come and tell us:" ""The company is leaving, you're getting paid tomorrow, or not... "" "If the company leaves, where are we going to work?" "The situation is bad, and we must find a solution." "We can't just sit here, what are we waiting for?" "We cannot go on pretending." "We are all in this together." "We all have to keep together defending our jobs." "We have a family to look after, to support." "That's it, move your hand..." "if you don't the thread gets tangled." " Alright." " Yes, alright..." "Don't eat now, you'll get the butter on the thread." " But I have to eat." " No, you don't." "You should get up earlier." "You like your bed too much." "You get up late, and they say the early bird catches the worm." "You have breakfast at lunchtime." "Claudio, please!" "Hi, mum... how are you?" "What a nice surprise!" "How are your things going?" "Beautifully!" "I'm having a great time!" "Yes, mum... and how are you doing?" "Hurry up, the phone's eating my change." "How's Claudio?" "He's there?" " Put him on." " Bye, I love you." " Hey, dad." " What's up?" "How are you?" "I hope you haven't been bothering the old lady." "I'll be there soon..." " I don't want to find out." " What happened?" "It's all finished here, I'm through." "I'll explain later." "The line went dead." "Good." "We had news from dad..." "We're all happy now, of course." " Never mind, David." " It's done." " Have a good one." " Good luck!" "Rulo, come on." "I had the "Juan Camelo" record... but I lent it to a chick, and then never saw her again." "Once, playing that song in a club in Pacheco... we were coming from another club and were already wasted." " With beer and whisky, I guess..." " Probably ditch water too." "At the club the stage was round." "I was..." "I used to move a lot around the stage." "All of a sudden I ran out of stage, and fell." "And when I fell I hit a guy in the head with the bass." "What a pain in the ass!" "I had to go back on stage and keep on playing." "But this I found out later, the boys told me." "Imagine how drunk I was." "I have countless stories like this one." "And time went by." "With the mess we are in now, work, and all that..." "I seldom remember these things." "I don't feel like talking about things that happened to me." "The thing is, we make friends in these situations." "You came here, and you made friends." "That's what time leaves behind." "Yes, but still, the way things are you feel down." "I honestly don't feel like it." "I like partying" "I like having fun..." "but with all this mess." "What's up, José!" " This is the man I told you about." " Hi, nice to meet you." "Have a safe trip, Rulo." "Take care, you leave a friend behind." " We'll see each other again." " Good luck!" "Hey, how are you?" "Bye, Rulo!" "Have a good trip!"
