"Hello." "I have pushed forward the trip." "I'm going to Rome today." "Company's stuff." "Could you stay with Bruno starting from today?" "It was only 3 weeks before what we had agree." "Fuck." "Let's sit down." "Nothing happens in three weeks." "Bring Bruno to me today." "I don't expect this but I have the idea." "No, I will talk with my parents." "He will stay with them until you are ready to care for your child." "I'm ready." "We've talked about it." "What are you afraid of?" "Anyway, Merlí, let's leave it as it was: within 3 weeks" "You'll take him to my parents." "I call them." "Listen, this freaking dog have been licking my shoe for a while now." "You know how that pisses me off." "I was about to say 4 things to its owner but I haven't done it" "Because I want you to see that I can control myself." "Just like with Bruno, I also know how to control myself." "However, you're upset as if I don't care enough about him." "And I'm upset." "Clearly." "You'll feel better with a good company, right?" "I don't have boyfriend in Rome and don't meddle with my life." "Is it that hard for you to tell the truth?" "His name is Salvatore." "Ah." "Don't tell Bruno." "The job has nothing to do with him." "But I help you find him." "You know that they don't give me a charge like that here." "I have to prepare." "Will you give him pension every month?" "I have never failed my son." "Fuck." "Hey, listen." "Can you make your best friend shut up for fucking once?" "Tell Bruno that his room will be ready." " I'll wait for you two at home at 15:00" " Great." "See you." " Bye." " Bye" "I'm the one you're looking for." "I'm Merlí Bergeron." "I guess when they told us that we had to do an eviction" "They must have thought: "Shit." "How offensive."." "They don't suffer." "It's been a long time since I assume that I will have to live in my mother's house." "Come in, come." "That's what this city has there is room for tourists, but not for those who live here." "You move to your father's apartment from today." "It's the best thing that could happen to me." "Bruno..." "I might be luckier:" "I could break my leg while dancing and singing "bingo"." "Deep down, you two are alike." "Don't worry about the dance class." "I will still pay for them." "Wow..." "What a change." "You used to complain about it..." "Bruno!" "It must be very good job..." "Yes, it is." "And it cost me a lot to accept it." "HA!" "What?" "You have a boyfriend there." "I looked at your phone." "You saw my mobile phone?" "Going to Rome for a shitty job was weird." "It isn't a shitty job!" "As if it was the most normal thing." "I offered you a change to go with me." "I'm over... roman adventures." "I can't go if you're mad." "Maybe when you get to Rome, I would get over it." "Wait a minute." "You have been banished." "Tell me." "Yes." "Yes." "But..." "Oh." "Yeah." "But How old is that director?" "Oh, 27." "Then tell him on my behalf that when he was born," "I was already doing Antigona on stage." "I'm not just any actress!" "I'm the Calduch!" "Let me know what you get." "I love you." "Representatives." "You turned down a job with which you could have paid the rent." "I won't do any job which is not teaching." "And Bruno?" "He was not going to live with you?" "Ah, three here." "Barbara asked me stay with him this afternoon." "That director, I'll have to tame his ego." "He makes a "Hamlet" with the characters dressed in military." "and he believes it is transgressive." "I like Bruno." "He has talent." "Just one thing." "He believes that you have a job and doesn't know you have been evicted from your house." "Tell him the truth or you won't live here." "20 minutes late..." "The first "merlinada"..." "I'm going to miss you." "Really?" "Of course." "Why did you change plans at the last minute?" "I would have been even later if we had met at home." "Staff meeting got longer." "What do you want?" " So?" " Hi." "Ready to argue daily?" " Merli, please!" " Just kidding, woman." "I'm sure we'll have fun." "Right?" "Do I have to answer?" "Are you going to walk with all that stuffs?" "Taxi!" "Thank you." "Bye, honey." "Don't cry." "If you hug me, I won't." "Come on..." "Come on, goodbye." "Bye." "Go." "You're going to miss your plane." "Yes." " Stop, stop, stop, stop!" " What's wrong?" "Nothing." "We have to get off." "I'm sorry." "What?" "We have to take our bags." "Get out." "What are you doing?" "We must save money, kid!" "Could you try not to embarrass me?" "I'm shocked." "Save energy." "You'll really be shocked now." "You've lied to Mom and me." "You neither have a house nor a job." "What will we do?" "Go to a hotel?" "Bruno, I don't want problems, I want solutions." "Do you know why we came here?" "Is this a solution?" "Living with "the Calduch"?" " This is chaos." " Hey, the only one who can get dramatic here is me." "You're in my house." "And I'm in charge." "What are you saying?" "Regarding my son, I'm in charge." "No choice but to adapt." " No, excuse me." "Mom hasn't got on the plane yet." " Do you know why I didn't pay the rent for a year?" "Because your pension was my priority." "Your father may make a lot of mistakes But he has never failed this." " If mom knew, she would never have left me with you." " Don't talk to her." "Let him be." "How can you let him be?" "Yes." "He does what he wants." "SHUT UP!" "You, shut up." "Do you really want to screw her travel?" " Do you know that she has a boyfriend there?" "I don't care!" "I don't want to waste my time arguing with kids." "He said it to me." "Yes?" "Yes, it's me." "Mom?" "We didn't go to dad's house, but grandmother's." " What are you doing?" " Shut up." "They've just called me." "I have a job." " Ah, you have a job." " What job do you have?" "Damn, son!" "Don't you remember?" "I'm a teacher." "That's a lie!" "You don't have a job." "You make it up." " You've caused me a headache." " That's your brain, which tries to understand your nonsense." "Now you've done well." " If this is a lie..." " I have a job." "Ok!" "Son, that's a lie, isn't it?" "No, they've called me." "I'll cover for a sick leave." "Starting tomorrow." "You don't look very happy..." " Hello." "You are Merlí, philosophy's teacher?" " Yes." "How do you do?" "I'm Toni, institute's director and math's teacher." "How are you?" "Welcome." "The previous teacher have been sick for some months now." "I can't not say what I feel." "You will teach high school freshmen." "Can I have an extra for me to go out occasionally?" " I will present you to the other teachers." " Is it strictly necessary?" " I will present you to the other teachers." " Is it strictly necessary?" "Man, of course." "Always the penance." " Gloria, art and drawing teacher." "He is Merlí, new philosophy's teacher." " How are you?" " And Santi, her husband, language teacher." " Nice to meet you." "You, too." "We are married, but it doesn't seem so, eh?" "Shut up." "Come on." "Excuse us." "And Eugeni Bosc, head teacher, Catalan language and literature." "How's it going?" "Welcome to the trenches." "You're the new Aristotle, eh?" "He was the first to shout out that philosophy would no longer be underrated." "I was the first one to publish an article about that topic." "Interesting." "No, Eugeni has a literature blog." "It's ok." "You could do an interview for the blog, really, talking about philosophy." "Mireia, Latin." "He is Merlí, replacing David." " How are you?" " Hello." "Nice to meet you." "Mireia is one of the promising teachers of the institute." "You are exaggerating." "No, no, you're a diamond in the rough." "If you let yourself advised, you'll end up being a great teacher." "Is there any sink nearby or do I have to vomit right here?" "Here are the schedules." "Come on." "Good luck on your first day." "Thank you." "Hello everyone!" "Hello." "Hello." "I'm late." "I had to go to the vet." "My dog have been sick all night." "Poor thing." " Hello." " Hello." "I've made a mess." "Gloria, you have my photocopies?" " Yes." "Here they are." " Thank you." "Merlí, philosophy." "How are you?" "Your name is Merlí?" "Yes." "I like that name." "I am Laia, English." " I'm late for class." "Bye." " Goodbye." "Sorry, but she is dating Albert." "He's the P.E. teacher." "I gotta go." "I have a class for first year high school." "Uh, what a way to start!" "Be careful with Pol Rubio," "He is impertinent." "Never takes notes." "He has repeated two years." "You'll recognize him because he is always glued to Berta Prats' lips." " Um." " Luck." "Joan, you have any spared pen?" "Did I give you back the one I borrowed the other day?" "It's ok." "Bruno!" "I'm so lucky." "Why?" "I'm not just going to live with my father, but with my crazy grandmother too." " Damn!" "Are you kidding?" "!" " Bruno!" "man!" "Hey!" "You didn't come yesterday." "Were you sick?" "So, so..." "Yes." " The new Philo teacher comes today, doesn't he?" " Yes." "Yes?" "The new Philosophy teacher?" "The substitute." "What's up?" "Nothing." "Don't worry." "Bye!" "Good morning, kids!" "It's him!" "My father!" " Really?" "Is he your...?" " Shut up." "Shut up." "Okay." "My name is Merli." "and I want you to "get hard" with Philosophy." "Marc comes with a boner every day." "Shut up, asshole!" "I mean I'll try to pass on you my interest in Philosophy." "You!" "What's your name?" "Bruno." "Bruno what?" "Bergeron." "What the hell is that surname?" "It's French." "Ah..." "Do you think that Philosophy is good for something?" "Yes." "That's what I wanted to hear!" "I'm fucking sick of people who say that Philosophy is useless." "It seems that the educational system has forgotten the questions:" "Who are we?" "Where did we come from?" "Where do we go?" "Now, they only care about what company we create, how much money we'll earn..." "Philosophy serves to reflect." "Reflect on life, on human beings," "And to question things." "Maybe that's why they want to kill it." "They find it dangerous." "Philosophy and Government have an unresolved sexual tension." "What is Philosophy?" "No idea, right?" "Philosophy is not just a set of profound questions and absolute truths." "Philosophy is to turn what we take for granted." "Jesus." "You all look surprised." "Not all, eh?" "Contrary to what many people think, teenagers are not fools." "He is." "That's how you get revenge on me, right?" "What happens is that you are sleeping." "You don't move your ass from the chair if it's not because they have taken your phones." "I want to see you awake." "Listen and pay attention to what's going on around you." "Be prepared to take the contradictions and doubts set out by life..." "And to face with adversities." "On top of that," "Since in this life, you don't always win So, learn about defeats." "I know a bit about this topic." "Yesterday, for example, I was kicked out of my rented flat." "Yes." "They kicked me out of the house because I didn't pay." "I got nerves, right?" "Now I think about it, you and I have 2 things in common:" "We live in our mothers' houses and don't have a dime." " You says it so calmly, as if it doesn't affect you." " What do you want me to do?" "I burst out crying?" "No." "I prefer to laugh at adversity." "Come on, tell me some personal problem while laughing." "Who wants to start?" "You." " Tell me your name." " Tania." "Very good, Tania." "My father has been caught cheating the Treasury." "Oh, man." "I swear." "Now he has to pay a fine." "My father can't lie." "He's shabby." "I don't know." "Send him my regards." "Ok." "Not bad, but I'm asking you your own things." "Come on, cheer up." "Who else wants to?" "Come on." "Now." "You." "My name is Joan Capdevila." "and my problem is..." "Well, I don't know if it's a problem." "But I'm very shy." "Yeah, but tell me that while laughing." "I'm very shy." "But you dared to raise your hand and speak in front of everyone." "Maybe you're not that shy." "Someone else?" "Tell me." "Always..." "Well, my name is Gerard." "I always like some girl, but they... never notice me." "How do you know it?" "Are you a mind-reader?" "Maybe in this school, there's a girl who always thinks of you before going to sleep." "He'll believe that." "Come on, now me." "I don't take notes." "I'm warning you so you know." "I can't listen and write at the same time." "And no teacher understands it." "No, I do understand." "Well, in philosophy, you only have to listen and learn to think." "I don't care if you don't take notes, Pol Rubio." "How do you know my name?" "Ah!" "I've been told that you like studying so much that you've taken the course twice." "Act like you don't know him." "No, I don't know him." "I don't know." " I can't say the same." " Yeah." "Hey!" "Bergeron!" "A moment." "You should be happy." "You see, I have a job, it was true." "Now you'll see how your father teaches." "Did you ask to work at my school?" "No, this goes by number." "I can't turn down this job, or else I wou;d be out of the list." "Fucking great...!" "You teaching and mom in Rome with a man." "She went to Rome to work, not to fuck." "Can you save the word "fuck"." "Especially here." "Mom will freak out when I tell her I go with her." "I'll save money and look for an apartment." "I had enough seeing you twice a month." "Now I have you here everyday as a teacher." "This is not my ideal adolescence." "Bruno." "What?" "When you were a kid, I abandoned you and your mother." "It's true." "I made a mistake." "Are you never wrong?" "Now I would like to help you not make too many mistakes." "I've only seen you a couple of weekends a month for years." "When your mother told me she was going to Rome and I would stay with you, I was glad." "Yes, yes, I know, I know I'm very used to live alone." "But I'd like to live with you." "Dad, are you getting sentimental or what?" "I'll give you my bedroom." "It's bigger than yours." "If you want to be in peace, we won't tell anyone I'm your father." "I don't know how long we will make without anyone knowing it, but yes." "We'd better not say anything." "Dad... you are... weird." "[Tania:" "Everything's okay?" "]" "This mobile phone isn't cool." "Ok, I'll buy you a new one." "Ok." "What a fucking adolescence is this that a father is worth the price of a phone?" "The vet has made him some tests and all good." "After the night I spent, at least a joy." "Maybe he eats something spoiled." "Yeah, I guess." "Do you want me to come to your house tonight?" "I'm very tired because I have not slept last night." "As you wish." "Well, come on." "Come and stay over." "Ok." "Hey." "How are you?" "Hello." " How was your first class?" " Good, good." "Very good." "This is Albert, P.E. teacher." "He is Merlí, philosophy." " Hello." " How do you do?" "I'm going, I'm late for class." "Ok" " See you then?" " Ok." "Goodbye." "Is he your boyfriend?" "Yes." "How old is he?" "27." "You're attractive enough to be with some one older and experienced." "Why do you say that?" "No, nothing." "I did not want to bother you." "See you around here." "I don't know why he talk with Joan, man." "He's bitter." "I couldn't stand David." "I went to talk to him once..." " He was an asshole." " I went to talk to him to his office..." "You can't talk to him." "He became very serious, didn't he?" "A lot, huh?" "You can't talk to him because..." "I like Merlí." "He's fucking awesome." "I like him." "At first, I thought:" ""What a moron."" "But then, he's cool." "I can't stand fat Santi." "No way!" "Santi's cool." "I think the lesson was interesting." "What's up?" "You think all lessons are interesting!" "But what are you doing, man!" "I think that Merli has sniffed something before coming to class." "Something strong." "I told him I don't take notes and he understood me." " I understand you better, honey." " Don't call me "honey"." "Jerk." "Do you want some grass?" "It will get into my sandwich." " Are you vegetarian?" " Merli is my father." "What are you saying?" "Come on!" "Shut up!" "He really means it, huh?" " But you don't have a father." " Of course I have a father, silly." "he asked you your name." "It's true, and he laughed at your surname, "Bergeron"." " Exactly, he said it to make him a joke." " Tania, it doesn't matter." "Damn!" "There's a guy going to guitar lessons with me" " He was so horny that he put a watermelon in the microwave and made a hole..." " No." "And then:" "PUMBA!" "PUMBA!" "PUMBA!" "He fucked it hard, man." "A friend, you say?" "And why do all melons at your home have holes?" "I'll never eat melon at your home again!" "Merlí" "Yes?" "Listen." "I don't understand what you said about my boyfriend earlier." "Could you explain to me?" "Sure." "I said that he was too young." "It has surprised me." "Attractive women like you often date more mature and experienced men." "Right." "Like you, perhaps?" "I won't let you come this way." "You have just come." "I didn't give you any reason to hit on me." "Are we clear?" "Transparent." "You really are beautiful." "But how dare you?" "Did I offend you?" "Is it that strange that I tell you what I think?" "That's how I am." "When I meet an attractive woman, I tell her that." "It doesn't mean I want something more." "I simply show my admiration for beauty." "Thanks, but..." "But nothing." "You're beautiful and that's it." "What I said doesn't hurt anyone, right?" "My problem was the tone." "The tone?" "The tone is right." "Sincere but correct." "Look, I don't care." "Just leave it here." "See you tomorrow, Merlí." "Of course." "Do you see how the curriculum isn't necessary?" "I love you." "Will you help me to memorize the text?" "Where is Dad?" "I don't think he's late." "Do you like your bedroom?" " I've always dreamed of sleeping near Dad and granny." " You'll get used to it quickly." "Yeah..." "The classes, not so much..." "Yeah..." "Parents shouldn't be their own children's teachers." "I'll endure stoically." "Poor you!" ""Stoically", a strange word Dad has put in my head." "[Mom: [All great in Rome!" "How are you?" "]" "[Bruno:" "I couldn't be better...]" "[Mom:" "I'll call you tomorrow." "Take care!" "]" "[Bruno: "Ok :)"]" "Don't you want some fruit?" "No, I'm not hungry." " Hello." " Hello." "How are you doing?" "Good." "Want dinner, son?" "Yes." "Give me the newspaper." " You were singing." " We will start rehearsing next week." "Listen." "Is it true that people give away dogs because they can't take care of them?" "Yes." "There're many advertisements on the internet," "You can't stand dogs." "He wouldn't do that." "Don't you abandon him." "Bruno?" "Bruno, I'm leaving." "Where so early?" " I have things to do." "Bye." " Dad..." "Bye." "Dad." "There's no teacher who tells his life in class." "And don't try to befriend students." "It's pathetic!" "Look, Bruno." "I teach like that." "And I didn't see that bothered your classmates." "Okay?" " Bye." " Wait." "If you want, tell them you're my father." "But don't say I do dance." "Bullshit." "Fuck them if they don't like." "Dad." "Yes, ok." "I won't say anything." "It's very good." " I really like your personal opinion about the novel." " You do?" "Yes." "I've already told you" "You have great capacity of criticism, Joan." " Thank you." " You have..." "Well, I'm going to class." "Ah, yes." "Hello." "I come a little late." "What you got there?" "Last night, a friend called me." "He told me that they were forced to sacrifice some dogs." "Here we are." "Yes, it often happens." "I have friends working in kennels, too." "He gave me one." "I can't resist it." "How wonderful!" "Look." "It is really cute!" "And they were going to kill him?" " Yes, yes." "I think so." "I don't know." " Why?" "And they were going to kill him?" " Yes, yes." "I think so." "I don't know." " Why?" "He's quiet." "I have talked with the caretaker." " I'll take care of him until I finish my class." " Ok." "Take him to the vet first." "I know a good one." "You want his phone number?" "Perfect." "It's really insane, because I can't handle the responsibility." "Does that vet take emergency case?" "Do you want me to go?" "Uh?" "I know him well." " Tomorrow, I have a free hour." " Perfect." "I appreciate it." "Come on, all to class, it's late." "And don't turn on all the lights of the department." "You have to save." "I'll leave it in the query of my friend and call me when you see it." "As you like." "You, quiet." "So confident." "So cute, eh?" "Yes." "So is the dog." "Because Matias is very annoying." "He spent all day ..." "Silence." "Everyone back to your seat." " I'll tell you later." " Ok." "Let's see." "Is there anyone not present in the class?" "Ivan - the Freak" "Ivan?" "Ivan, Ivan Blasco?" "He is a moron." "He hasn't been coming for 2 months now." "The freak." "All right." "This is my surname." "Really?" "Yeah!" "It was true!" ": he is Bruno's father!" "I can't believe it!" "Bruno: if you're annoyed, you'll stay home without going out next Saturday." "Let's see, today I have no desire to stay in class." "Follow me." " What do you think?" "That I'm kidding you?" "Follow me!" " Where?" "Come!" "Come on!" "Follow me!" "Come on!" "And so we come to one of the most important Catalan literature playwrights of twentieth-century." "Does anyone know his name?" "Does anyone know what his name is?" "Playwright bo..." "Ha, ha!" "Does anyone know what his name is?" "Hi, good morning." "How are you?" "Hi." "Well..." "I've brought you here because this seems like an inspiring place." "The brain could be human being's kitchen." "And also to explain to you that more than 2,000 years ago, there were some students of Philosophy named "peripatetics"." "Pathetic!" "What are you saying?" "No, no, no, "peripatetics"." "They were students of Aristotelian school," "We'll talk about Aristotle." "They were named that because they philosophized while walking." "Walk." "Walk!" "Come on!" "Walk!" "Come on!" "Walk!" "Follow me!" "Come on!" "Peripatetics used to wander whille reflecting." "I don't know if you get it." "Come on, reflect while you walk." "If anyone has any interesting reflection, you can say it." "I'm peeing." "I said "an interesting reflection"." "Take off your dick!" "You'd freak out with my big dick." "Yeah..." "Merli, I have a question: is everyone able to philosophize?" "Your father is getting freaky." "You shut up." "What's wrong." "He doesn't say anything." "I've been silent for two reasons:" "to think about the answer and to show that when one is thinking, people look at him badly." "Why thinking is frowned upon?" "Shouldn't it be the other way around?" "Isn't it the people, who don't reflect on things, are more reprehensible?" "In philosophy class, you can show that you're rational animals." "In the others, you can remain just animals." "Come on: walk!" "Group of bipeds!" "Come on!" "Walk!" "If when you were younger kids, you would be the Penguins' class or Dolphins', now this class will be the Peripatetics' class." "Merlí, I'm mad at you." "Oh, really?" "Yes, you haven't answered me: can everyone philosophize?" "What do you think?" "Me?" "I think, if philosophy serves to put doubt on the think we know, everyone can do it." "But they don't give a damn." "Not everyone wants to do it." "You've just become my favorite student." "Come on, man!" "But, but that doesn't mean you can't fight to steal him his title." "Yeah..." "I'm coming for you, kid." "Keep calm, keep calm, keep calm everyone." "Lucky I don't mind what Catalan teacher thinks about you." "He said I should be careful with you because you are an impertinent." "Come on!" "Walk!" "Reflect!" "Walk and reflect." "Fucking Eugeni Bosch...!" "Reflect." "Very good." "Send it to me by mail and I'll tell you something, ok?" "Hello." "Eh, what's up?" "I've been told Eugeni Bosch criticizes me in the staffroom." "Come on, that's not true." "Sure..." "And you say that you don't have mania on students..." " Eugeni doesn't hold it against you, Pol." " He said to be careful with me." "And you say that you don't have mania on students..." " Eugeni doesn't hold it against you, Pol." " He said to be careful with me." "He insults me." "Who told you that?" "Merli Bergeron." "Come on." "What?" "How was it in the kitchen with the kids?" "Good." "What we need" "All institutes have the typical teacher that teaches creatively." "May God save me from being orthodox." "Right." "I'm more of a classic." "I admit that." "No, I won't make friend with the kids." "I think..." "I think it is important to maintain distances between teacher and students." "I'm more interested in the distance between teacher and teacher." "Right." "Bruno must not have much fun having you in class." "He is delighted." "Eugeni" "Eugeni" "Ivan Blasco still doesn't come." "Who is monitoring him?" "I am." "I have volunteered." "Ivan Blasco?" "What's wrong with that kid?" "He has agoraphobia." "He doesn't want to leave home." "He seems a bit weird but he's a good student." "I will do everything to get him out on the street." "Who knows?" "Like when he sees you enter the house, he will want to leave." "What's wrong with him?" "Nothing, nothing." "Laia likes puppies a lot, right?" "A lot." "A lot." "It's so difficult for you having a normal lesson, isn't it?" "The "normal" concept could lead us to an endless discussion." "For you, what is normal?" "Normal is normal, Dad, normal." "Dammit!" "What a profound son I have." "Listen." "What is considered normal today wasn't so years ago." "It's a Foucauldian lesson." "You see how you say weird things?" ""Foucauldian"?" "What does "Foucauldian" mean?" "Why are you acting like this with my friends?" "You were silent for 3 minutes and that bullshit about thinking." "You are jealous of Pol!" "Oh, yeah..." "I'm dying of jealousy..." "Pol is very pissed off with Eugeni because of what you told him." "It's natural." "Why did you tell him?" "Look, Bruno." "Eugeni is the kind of teacher that I detest." "Because he thinks students are his enemies." "When he comes to class, everything bad comes to him." "To me, they disappear." " Bruno!" "I'll wait for you outside." " Ok, I'm going now." "Ok!" "I only ask you to not get yourself noticed." " You'll have to get used to having me as your teacher, ok?" " Bruno!" "Champion!" "You see?" "You will make more friends by being the Philosophy teacher's son." "Dad." "I don't understand about peripatetics." "Will you explain it to me at home?" "Wikipedia, son." "Wikipedia." "We can talk a minute?" "Yes, of course." "Sit down." "Listen out." "Toni" "How do you let Eugeni come to a agrophobic's house?" "It's cruel, it's like Dickens." "Geez" "Have you seen yourself?" "You come into my office and talk to me like that as if we were so close." "Merlí, I do not like your attitude." "You came just 2 days ago, yet you are already making trouble." "You told Pol Rubio that Eugeni had criticized him?" "It's the truth." "He did criticize him." "You must not tell the students the private conversation between teachers." "Toni, I can not stand that kind of mediocre teacher." "I have known so many like him and they piss me off." "Eugeni is a very good teacher." "No, he only know how to sell." "He doesn't have talent." "Eugeni is a very good teacher." "No, he only know how to sell." "He doesn't have talent." "Bah, let's leave it here." "Leave it." "Forget it." "Hey, can you explain to me what exactly happened to that Ivan Blasco?" "Ah, it seems that the boy feel left out of the group." "From time to time, he did not come to class or came late." "Eventually, he stopped coming." "His mother brought us the medical report." "He was diagnosed with early agrophobia." "He doesn't leave home?" "No, he doesn't want to." "He doesn't want to see psychologist, either." "She is a single mother." "She works all day." "And eventually, she can't handle all of that." "I promised her I would find a voluntary teacher to monitor him and Eugeni offered his help." "This will lead to his sickness getting worse." "It has already been decided, Merlí." "Eugeni will be the teacher who helps Ivan." "Starting tomorrow." "Obviously without payment." "Oh, how generous." "Yes." "Yes, I'm looking at it now." "One second." "Ah, great." "Well, thank you very much, eh?" "Bye." "Merlí, I just talked with the vet." "The dog is perfect." "Good." "Damn, what a relief." "You can pick it up anytime." "Right." "But I had to leave my flat and now I'm temporarily living in my mother's house." "I haven't talked with her about it." "What will you do if she doesn't want it?" "Then I don't know." "Discuss, I guess" "I'm not going to abandon the dog on the street." "I have been thinking" "And if you can't keep it" "I won't mind taking care of it." "But you already have one, right?" "Yes, but I've fallen in love with that puppy and..." "I wouldn't mind having two." "You have to ask your partner." "Why?" "I live alone." "Oh yeah?" "Yes" "I think it's nice that you keep it." "In fact, you have done me a favor" "Because I'm being stuck in a mess." "But I'm delighted." "What if the two dogs do not get along?" "I think they do." "Listen." "Why...?" "Shall we take them to a park?" "To check." "Ok." "Ok." "We'll go later?" "Yes." " Good." " Perfect." "Bye." "Open, please." "Ivan, I have to go back to the bar." "Don't make me call the police, please." "[Elevator out of order]" "Ivan, open, please." "I have to go back to the bar." "Open, please, Ivan." "Ivan." "Hello, excuse me." "Are you Ivan Blasco's mother?" "I am." "I'm from Ángel Guimerá institute." "I am the teacher of reinforcement." "We expect you to come tomorrow." "I..." "My name is Miriam." "Merlí." "Isn't it a Eugeni who should have come?" "No." "It must be a confusion." "Anyway, you coming is good." "Ivan has locked himself inside and he doesn't want to open." "I'll talk to him." "Ivan, a teacher has come to help you." "Open." "I have to go back to the bar." "I work in a bar in front of the building." "I left a moment and I have to go back." "Relax." "I will replace you." "Thank you." "Toni told me that I wouldn't have to pay but I insist we agree on a price per hour." "We have talked about the fees." "Relax." "Toni told me that I wouldn't have to pay but I insist we agree on a price per hour." "We have talked about the fees." "Relax." "Ivan, I'm going to work." "You stay with Merlí." "Thank you." "If you need anything," "I'm in the bar." "Yes, go." "Don't worry." "Ok." "Go." "Don't worry." "Ivan," "I know you're listening from the other side." "Hereinafter," "I am your tutor while you don't return to school." "You open the door for me?" "Oh!" "I'm sitting on a teacher's couch." "Your mother is a teacher too." "And what?" "At least your mother doesn't work in our high school." "Your father rules." "If I were a teacher, I'd like to be like him." "Hi!" "Hi, grandma." "Huy!" "Who is this pretty girl?" "Tania." "Ah, well." "I'm Carmina Calduch." "Yes, I know." "You're an actress on that ad, aren't you?" "Baby, believe me:" "I've done better things than that "pate" ad." "Of course, of course." "You are one of the best actresses in our country." "Ah, really?" "And who are the others?" "Theater people are a bit... unbalanced." "Sure she gave birth to my freak father." "What's wrong with you?" "Is it just because of Merli?" "Yeah..." "Yeah, you are lying." "Tell me, are you hiding something from me?" "Let's see..." "I think..." "Well, I don't think so." "I'm in love with someone." "Dumbass!" "You hadn't told me!" "Aren't we best friends and we tell each other everything?" "Who?" "I'm not telling you." "Why?" "You never come to dance with me." " I can dance with you whenever you want, but tell me who!" " No!" "I'm not going to tell you." " Who?" "Come on, tell me, please." "Tell me!" " No!" "Stop!" "No!" "Girl, girl, girl!" "That cushion is a souvenir of "Cyrano"!" "Sorry." "I told you I'm in love with Marc." "Marc is dirty-minded!" "When I get a boyfriend I may be a bit nasty..." "Actually, your volunteer teacher" " Eugeni Bosc - is supposed to come tomorrow." "I've come first." "You must be like those cynical philosophers who believed that they could only pursue the virtue out of the society, eh?" "I am a professor of philosophy, you know?" "I'll tell you an anecdote." "When Diogenes was a slave," "His owner asked him: "What do you do best?"" "You know what his answer was?" "He said:" ""I can command and I command you to set me free."" "Then his owner granted him his freedom and made him the guardian of his children." "Did you like it?" "I guess you consider it as shit." "but Eugeni wouldn't tell you these anecdotes." "Ok." "Very good." "Goodbye." "You stay there." "We have a ton of work." "Cutie." "It's obvious that they get along." "Yes." "In the park, everyone looked at us." "Pispa!" "Do you get along well with...?" "What will you name him?" "Eh?" "Descart." "Descartes." "The philosopher?" ""Oui, Descartes"." " I like how it sounds in France so much." " Yes." "Yes." "I used to live in Paris." "In Paris?" "When my mother worked there." "Let's see." "Speak French." "What do you want me to say?" "What should I talk about?" "About philosophy." "About Descartes." "For example." "Bon." "[In France]" "I'm a thinking thing" "[In France] that is, a being who doubts, affirms, "qui nie"?" "denies." ""Qui aime"." "Wait." "I'll feed the dogs." "[In France]" "I think, there for I am." "[Tania:" "Wow." "You hasn't told me yet...]" "[Bruno:" "Haaahhhahah]" "[Tania:" "Are you going to tell me who you are in love with or not?" "]" "[Bruno:" "Yes, someday]" "So, how you doing?" "What?" "You come to talk about profound things?" "Damn, you have basically the same humor sense as your father." "I like it." "I see you happy..." "Yeah!" " Today I got a small bonus." " From what?" "Ivan Blasco." "I'll give him private lessons at home." "He didn't speak much..." "No, no..." "But he opened the door, it's a start." "Take this." "New mobile phone..." "It's Chinese." "An imitation of good ones." "No, no, no, no, excuse me: good mobile phones imitate this one." "It's better than the one you had, isn't it?" "Yes." "Ah, ok." "You are welcome, huh?" "Thank you." "Peripatetics were students of Philosophy..." "I already know it!" "I've looked it up on Wikipedia." "It's faster than "Merlipedia"." "Goodnight." "Dad..." "I'm... afraid... of what you could do in class." "Admit you are... weird." "Complicated." "Yes, yes, yes..." "Yes, I'm complicated, yeah." "But the world in which you live is even more complicated, son." "Everything is done shit." "But I don't want you to fall into neglect nor pessimism." "I want you to involve yourself in things, to be critical of what surrounds you." "Yes, I know it's boring thinking of these issues, but I don't think that teenagers only have in your head sex and getting drunk." "You also have fears, don't you?" "You want to experience new things, but you're fucking scared." "You're like..." "like amateur actors before going on stage for the first time." "Oh, I don't know..." "Look:" "You may fall in love one day and you may not be loved in return." "That's life." "You're not always loved by the one you love." "Yes, Bruno, yes: you have a complicated father and whatever you want." "but I'm the best teacher you've ever had and with time, you'll see I'm right." "Be patient." "I know I'm difficult, but... you'll have to take it philosophically." "Merlí, you are at the institute service Not the instutue at your service." "Do me a favor of not skipping any more standard." "Who wants to cheat in the literary contest?" "What is this turkey saying?" "It's crazy." "What's wrong?" "My period hasn't come yet." "What?" "It was just sex." "But you liked it, right?" "You know what I told you?" "There will be nothing between us." "I have written some verses for the poem." "You're going to read in front of your father?" "All right." "You are revolutionizing the henhouse." "It was very quiet until you came along." "Oh, shit." "But you told me he wouldn't be here." "Oh, shit." "But you told me he wouldn't be here." "Give me." " Son." " Son, no." " Put on your clothes." "You're naked." " Alright." "Relax." "Ivan, look at me." "Look at me." " Shut the fuck up." " Marc, let him be." "I know what happens."
