"In the meantime, try to come up with another title." "Here we go again." "It sounds boring, Ginés." ""Madrid Under Siege or French Treachery." I think it's powerful." "When have you ever seen a movie with two titles?" "There are plenty of classics with two titles." "It was a custom." "Well, not anymore." "Bye." "Congratulations." "Thank you." "You see?" "You wanted a car and there it is." "It's a miracle!" "I'm going to tell Victoria." "What for?" "She loves cars." "We can take her out, she's bored in that hotel." "Look!" "We can go out some time." "Girls' night out." "I'd have preferred the next model up." "The next model up cost 3 thousand euros more." "I like it." "It says a lot about you." "You've reached your first goal on the first try." "Where there's a will and a little free time..." "There's a will, but free time..." "If she clings to that mattress store..." "Do you work for a large American company on the Stock Exchange, or a pathetic mattress chain?" "I'm going to try it out." "You can't change your mind?" "I can't hold down two jobs." "So you were serious about becoming a millionaire in 30 days." "We're working on it." "But I'm doing well, yes." "You're unrecognizable, Encarna." "Did you really kick out Paquitín?" "Beatriz." "My name is Beatriz now." "Next stop, the psychiatric ward." "You've been brainwashed, gorgeous." "and that's when you turn into a human magnet, attracting people..." "Do you mind?" "I can't fit any more at home." "You can sell all of this?" "Of course." "The bigger the order, the bigger the commission." "That's the trick." "Last year a girl in Cincinnati made Senior Sapphire Manager in one month." "Why not me?" "Okay, then." "Get to work." "Hey, what about tomorrow?" "Two o'clock sharp." "Wouldn't it be better to leave things as they are?" "I saw you and thought you have potential charisma." "Would you like to join my sales team?" "No strings attached." "You could join my sales team." "I don't ask just anybody." "You keep 25%." "It's always nice to make a little extra money." "The universe is mental, you know." "You attract what you think about." "Take this and call me." "And don't wait too long..." "Call me." "Okay, thanks." "Bye." "25% of what you sell..." "Are you sure you're not interested?" "Take a sample and try it." "Okay, thanks." "If you don't want to be happy, I can't force you." "Thanks anyway." "Too bad." "Why were these on my bed?" "They're yours." "Do you like them?" "They have an air chamber." "You've been buying things non-stop lately." "Are you making that much money?" "When money flows, it's like a boomerang." "Later it comes back to you tenfold." "It does?" "What do I do with the other one?" "Keep it as a souvenir." "They're very cool." "And expensive." "We deserve the best." "Since you like running so much, use the best." "Thanks, sweetie." "You really have changed." "Before you treated me like dirt." "You set the table for three." "No more lies." "Look." "He's right on time." "What?" "You heard me." "I wish I hadn't!" "This is not a fling." "Since when, you pig?" "Since high school?" "I knew it." "I knew it!" "I told you this was a bad idea." "You wasted your youth on an old man!" "Dad was 30 years older than you!" "Exactly!" "He's over the hill!" "My intentions are good." "In fact, we got married ten years ago." "Didn't we?" "This can't be." "I didn't see this one coming!" "Mom!" "Where are you going?" "Stay away from me!" "Mom!" "Mom!" "Leave me alone!" "I can't even look at you!" "Where are you going?" "Don't cross!" "I can make it!" "Sure you don't want to pee?" "No!" "You shouldn't have bothered coming to see your sick sister." "This is worse than finding out about the old man." "Why did you call them?" "Move on already." "I have a lot of work." "I can't be here all day to look after you." "That's what sisters are for." "Take a look at the catalogue after." "They're really great products." "My mother looks younger, doesn't she?" "In what sense?" "She's still as proud as ever." "Nobody kicked you out." "You left because you wanted to." "Because I wanted to?" "The record company didn't want a gimp in the group." "A dyslexic gimp!" "You said it." "How did they get rid of me?" "Have them dance!" ""Let's add choreography."" "And you all loved the idea!" "I liked to dance!" "Why should I sit there stiff as a rod?" "Hey!" "Stop shouting." "I'm glad you didn't get picked." ""You're sick" was a shitty song." "Selfish!" "You're selfish!" "Please!" "Please!" "You're acting like the real Supremes!" "Stop shouting!" "This is a hospital!" "She's been jealous since the day she was born." "It's true." "It was a shitty song." "I can't talk right now." "Unbelievable." "Encarna, can you hear me?" "Beatriz." "I thought we said Beatriz." "Shitty coverage." "I can't talk right now." "Where is she?" "I'm at the hospital visiting my mother." "What hospital?" "The hospital here in Mostoles." "My mother got hit by a car." "An accident." "Your mom's in the hospital?" "Mes." "But she's okay." "I bought her a sneaker..." "She likes playing chicken with cars, I don't know why." "She usually makes it, but with the new sneaker..." "What about the empanadilla?" "Encarna!" "Don't give me shit right now!" "I said sneaker!" "Encarna!" "What?" "You're laughing at me?" "No, silly." "The signal is lousy." "You're nominated!" "Me?" "For what?" "You sold over 8,000 euros in one month." "That's unheard of for a Bronze Junior Manager." "How did you do it?" "You know, I'm good at sales." "Who would have guessed?" "Nominated for a Successful Award." "The Oscar of the business world." "Are they both related to Hollywood?" "Totally." "Careful what you wish for." "Ambition is very powerful and you're taking giant steps." "You know who you remind me of?" "Myself." "This one doesn't convince me either." "Can't I wear my suit coat?" "It is my work uniform, after all." "A suit coat for the red carpet?" "Girls from Mostoles are unbelievable." "For ceremonies we also have this turquoise green with a mermaid cut." "I love it." "I'm not trying on any more." "No good." "Where did you bring us?" "La Paloma dressmakers." "And if you don't like it, buzz off." "Excuse me?" "No need to be nasty." "That's Victoria Abril." "Who!" "YOU?" "No, me." "Yeah, right." "Victoria Abril would shop in this store." "We're leaving." "You do not know how to treat a customer." "I let you try on everything in the store!" "Let's go." "We'll never find anything decent in Mostoles." "Hey, I can't spend a fortune on this." "Ms. Cheapskate is back." "With the money you're making on commissions!" "That's still a month away." "I'll pick out my own outfit." "I can't wait to get out of here!" "What's she saying?" "That this town sucks." "What do you think?" "It's not a town, it's a city." "More like another planet." "You used to like it here." "You were the coolest girl in town." "What happened?" "I saw the world, that's what happened." "True Grit, why are you by yourself?" "What are you doing here?" "He got away from me." "He saw you and went crazy." "Ginés, do you remember me?" "I was in your class too." "You didn't attend very often." "That's true." "He was our history teacher, and he's also..." "He's writing a screenplay for a movie and I sometimes help him with the typing." "What's the movie about, may I ask?" "It's about the huge role Mostoles played in the uprising against Napolean's troops." "How interesting!" "But believe me, if they'd stayed home that day, another rooster would have crowed in this country." "We'd be speaking French." "Lafayette Productions is looking for a co-production with Spain." "Remind me to pass on their contact info." "You never know." "What's going on today?" "Are they shooting the movie already?" "No, they're rehearsing to recreate the historical event." "Right Ginés?" "I won't disturb you any longer." "Say hi to your mother for me." "I hope she gets better." "I thought you two were out of the closet." "What do I know?" "Ginés!" "Ginés..." "Wait a second." "I'm late." "I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me." "I'm going through a lot of stress right now." "I'm in big trouble." "You shouldn't come over for a while." "What do you mean?" "Take care of your mother." "She needs you, I'll be fine." "Where is this coming from?" "I can't even make love to you anymore." "When have I ever cared about that?" "Come on, mutt." "You're taking the dog to the rehearsal?" "There were dogs back in 1800, weren't there?" "I'm here to return the merchandise." "I sell nothing." "I quit the business." "Do you start the conversation with a compliment?" "That's fundamental." "Ladies won't even open the door." "Can I have my money back?" "MY MILLIONAIRE AWARENESS GROWS WHILE I SLEEP" "Three panties for one euro!" "Come here, gorgeous!" "Take a look!" "Three panties for one euro!" "Come and get it!" "Hi, girls." "How are sales going?" "Awful." "It's like ladies are wearing panties from last year." "Otherwise I can't explain it." "I mean... our thing." "When people see they're pills they change their minds." "Keep trying with the creams." "People always want more." "And before you place another order from headquarters, order from me and I'll give you a 5% discount." "Okay, girls?" "I'm a money magnet." "I'm a money magnet." "I'm a money..." "Feli!" "Feli!" "Sweetie!" "Stop calling me Feli." "You slept here?" "It looks like I did." "How silly of me!" "What time is it?" "Buy me a cup of coffee?" "Can I take a shower at your place?" "At my place?" "Sure." "The hotel is too far." "Yeah." "Come in." "Wow, you are moving a lot of product here." "Keep this up and you'll be an international sales executive" "in Phoenix, Arizona." "You think so?" "I'm about to close another distribution arm." "I can see that." "Maria Dolores." "I don't deserve the nomination." "What are you talking about?" "I'm accumulating product to reach the equitable potential voucher." "It's okay." "I wanted to be a sales leader and make the commissions." "You know how much I've spent?" "But the truth is, I really haven't sold very much." "You overdosed on ambition, that's all." "Just don't place any more orders for a few months." "But they'll notice I went from a Senior Sapphire Manager to a Junior Bronze Manager again." "What do I do?" "People in the neighborhood avoid me like the plague." "Move to another neighborhood." "Do you make money doing this?" "Be honest, it's me." "Of course I do." "Well, right now I'm only a recruiter." "When I've recruited 300, I'll go up a level." "That's where you make money without doing anything." "When will that be?" "You still don't get it." "My boyfriend Marcus doesn't exist either." "Well, he does, we just haven't met each other yet." "But I tell my brain he's real, that way my mind attracts what it thinks it knows." "Don't you see?" "It's madness." "Be patient." "Visualize." "Money flying in your bedroom window." "Everything in due time." "EMERGENCIES" "Hi, this is Ginés." "Leave me a message after..." "What?" "Heel like getting shitfaced like in the old days." "Are you in?" "If you don't feel like it, why come?" "I do feel like it." "You should see your face." "You had a bad day." "I have a right to be in a shitty mood today, that's all." "She must be talking to her boyfriend." "I've heard them arguing before." "Should we knock?" "Sure." "We said we were going out." "He hung up on me!" "I feel like having some fun tonight." "So do we." "My boyfriend just left me for a woman much older than me." "What is wrong with men?" "What is their problem?" "What is life trying to tell me?" "What'?" "What?" "Alone again!" "Why did I fall for such a fucking asshole?" "Are you ready?" "Because tonight the drinks are on the house!" "Shouldn't you put that in the safe?" "I can't fit any more money in the safe!" "I don't know where to put it!" "And the maids are stealing from me." "Wouldn't a bank be safer?" "Give me 5 minutes." "He doesn't feel the way he used to about me." "And he just comes out and says it, 4 thousand miles away!" "You tell someone these things to their face!" "You can't break up with someone on the phone!" "And he's the jerk who got me into all this bullshit." "It screwed my rep as an actress and my career is in the toilet now!" "What are you doing?" "She can't put it in a bank!" "You are so clueless!" "Hopefully people won't recognize me like this." "People drive me nuts taking photos with their cell phones!" "Look, like Paco Rabal used to say:" ""Fuel for the ride."" "Now you're talking." "You're exaggerating." "No, I'm not. 300." "You know how to say "tacky" in Greek?" ""Demostoles"." "I have a hunch, I'm going to win a lot of money tonight." "I know it." "Unlucky in love, lucky at gambling." "Black, odd number." "Those guys are checking us out." "One keeps staring at your tits." "Great." "Let him." "I'll buy them a round." "The suckers might bring us luck." "Go for it." "You've never cheated on Ginés?" "Ginés the grandpa?" "Never." "The bandolero?" "Well, well." "You sure kept that one quiet." "Does he still fuck you?" "He fucks my brains out." "Better than anyone's ever fucked you." "Right!" "Or you." "It's possible, old men are great lovers." "What's your record for orgasms in one night?" "A lot." "How many?" "More than ten." "You beat me." "Mine is 13, but on a weekend." "Nine." "Red, odd number." "This means Morgan still loves me." "Otherwise I can't explain it." "Who are you?" "Hey, your friend reminds me of..." "What's her name?" "Victoria Abril, she gets that all the time." "And what was your name again?" "Beatriz." "And where are you from?" "Madrid." "Beatriz from Madrid." "I know my psychology..." "And something tells me you're a very smart girl." "You know what?" "It's no coincidence you and I met here tonight." "I'd like to... tell you about a business I have going that could make you a lot of money." "Sorry, baby, but I have to go." "I know my psychology too." "That is no way to hit on a girl or especially do business." "Save some cash for the ride back, your taxi is leaving." "And you!" "I lied to you." "My name isn't Beatriz, it's Encarna." "And I'm from Mostoles." "And I'm proud of it." "That bitch!" "What is your fucking problem?" "I don't want to be rich anymore, that's what." "How many drinks have you had?" "Less than you." "Then what's the big hurry?" "Look." "No matter how hard we try, life is what it is." "One big acid trip we can't control." "It gets away from us." "Okay." "Breathe from your stomach." "I don't want to." "Nobody chooses for things to go wrong, they just do!" "Sometimes things work out and sometimes they don't!" "This is a typical reaction, denial and resisting change." "Open yourself to the change." "The problem is you're scared." "You're the one who's scared." "I'm perfectly fine." "My feet are on the ground." "You're totally demented!" "I helped you believe in yourself and climb out of your hole." "You were a caterpillar, now you're a butterfly." "Fuck you." "How can you talk to me like that?" "Beatriz!" "My name is Encarna, damn it." "And I'm pissed off." "I have a right to be!" "Just give me 5 minutes." "We need to talk." "Urgently." "I have another deal going that might interest you." "Fine, you'll never get rich selling the pills like they say." "The real money is in the conferences." "You have no idea how much dough they pull in." "Of course I do." "All illegal cash, you saw it." "I quit my job, remember?" "Ginés mortgaged his home to get the fucking loan." "Do you have any idea what that means?" "Listen, I never lied to you." "The Law of Abundance follows its course." "The money is there, you just have to take it." "How could I be so stupid?" "I could punch you in the face right now." "She's promised a thousand times to pay me a commission for the people I bring in, but there I am, sleeping in a car." "It's true, I don't make a penny off the commissions." "The bitch keeps it all for herself, she trusts nobody." "She uses her popularity and the fact that she is or was going out with one of the bosses." "This is irrelevant, but this Morgan guy is totally hot." "Anyway, she's totally set up." "So she is the real Victoria Abril, the one from the Almodóvar films?" "You still doubt that?" "How should I know?" "This whole thing is so surreal, she could be her look-a-like cousin from Albacete!" "Well, it's her, I swear." "The people in Arizona are totally clueless." "She's been telling them that it's not working here." "If I told them the truth, she'd shit in her pants." "The Regional Corporate Leadership Convention is in two weeks." "In Mostoles." "I was thinking of swiping a big chunk of the proceeds and I need help." "Nobody reports illegal cash stolen." "Well?" "What do you say?" "Are you in?" "That's the night they give out the Successful Award!" "Who knows, you might win!" "Hi, this is Ginés." "Leave a message after the beep." "Thank you." "Hello?" "MADRID UNDER SIEGE OR FRENCH TREACHERY" "He left." "He had 3 suitcases, dragging that mutt behind him." "He didn't even say goodbye." "By the way, I've been taking the pills." "Five a day." "But I still look old." "I'll help you." "But I only want back what Ginés owes the bank." "Great." "We'll each take the amount we need." "Why don't you want us to go?" "What for?" "I'm not going to win." "But we were excited." "No." "It's really nice to see the four of you together again." "We declared war on negativity, like you." "We're sick of being pressured by the record companies." "It's a dark world." "And what the hell." "We miss the street parties and local festivals." "And I want you to explain the SayLife thing to me." "We're thinking of becoming distributors." "Okay, we'll see." "Bye." "You're so naive!" "You need an education for that." "You think we're illiterate or what?" "We went to school." "A degree!" "They don't look skinnier in person than on TV." "I studied my ass off." "So Encarna's finally out of the closet, huh?" "That's her girlfriend, right?" "It's a huge moment for a SayLife distributor." "I'm not nervous at all." "And there's no rivalry between us." "We've become great friends, haven't we?" "I'm not nervous at all." "Is it true Antonio Hidalgo is hosting the gala?" "I'm a super fan." "We don't take credit cards." "We're cashing out when we shut the doors." "Before the event." "Perfect, thanks." "Okay." "Enjoy the conference." "I'll try." "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome" "Antonio Hidalgo." "Good evening, everyone." "It's a pleasure to be here." "I admit it, I'm a newcomer." "I just had this business explained to me and I'm seriously considering quitting television." "Trust me, you make a lot more doing this." "Now it's time to greet this quarter's sales leaders, the three nominees for the Winning Business Academy's Successful Award to be given this evening." "How are you, girls?" "Are you nervous?" "Not again!" "I'm not nervous at all." "So much money!" "We could split it three ways and never look back." "We wish." "But Vicky insisted on leaving for Andorra tonight." "Like I want to go to Andorra." "The cash from the last few months." "We don't even know how much." "Why are you telling her?" "I didn't tell her anything." "What do you mean, you didn't?" "No." "You can tell me anything you want." "You could come to Andorra." "What for?" "To get rid off this guy." "We can leave him at a gas station." "Victoria Abril!" "Long live Mostoles!" "How many millionaires are there in Mostoles?" "Victoria, what's that outfit?" "Goyesca bandolera." "To fight the French." "Victoria has them eating out of her hand." "You know, Antonio Hidalgo." "He worked with Ana Rosa Quintana." "He worked with Hermida." "He made a record, it was a hit." "How old does Nieves look?" "Yes, I know." "Everyone thinks I'm 35, but I'm over 50, I swear!" "And all thanks to the SayLife pills!" "My daughter and her friends can't stand me!" "She is so annoying!" "Yeah, a little." "You didn't sell anything either, did you?" "They say you have to put up with life, and that it's crazy to think dreams are real." "But there's a way to win which today I am going to reveal." "Inside of you there's..." "I have to step out for a moment." "It's almost time!" "I'm so nervous I need to..." "Me too, but I can hold it." "Are you two having fun?" "I told you not to let the redhead out of your sight!" "Where is she?" "How's it going?" "I'm shitting in my pants!" "There's more than I thought." "We're going to jail." "Spread it out!" "I'll keep watch outside." "Is there a problem?" "No, why?" "You see?" "I have to order a taxi for Antonio Hidalgo." "I already ordered it." "Do you mind?" "Ladies' room, take a hike!" "Who are you?" "It's time to hand out our prestigious award." "The Winning Business Academy's Successful Award goes to..." "Antonio, I forgot my glasses, you read it." "Wait, I forgot mine too." "Flea is the best dealer here in Mostoles." "What else do you think three girls in a bathroom are doing?" "You've got some?" "Invite us to a line." "They snorted it all." "They're greedy." "I needed it." "I have pills and other stuff in my car." "I'll hook you guys UP..." "You think I'm stupid?" "Shh." "One second." "What a beautiful name!" "The Winning Business Academy's Successful Award goes to..." "Beatriz Orange Blossom!" "Go get your award!" "She's temporarily indisposed or something." "I'll accept it in her name and I'll give it to her when I see her." "Sorry!" "I'm back!" "Thank you." "Sorry, it's not easy getting around in this dress." "Especially in the bathroom." "I want to thank my new family, the SayLife Corporation." "Thank you very much." "If I did it, you can too." "It's that way, I'd better go that way." "Here, keep it." "I'm sure you're more excited about it." "And don't believe what they say!" "Nobody really knows anything!" "It looks like our winner is in a hurry to celebrate her award." "In the meantime, I'd like to tell you a few things about SayLife." "Son of a bitch!" "the business community and the financial press." "So thank you and congratulations for belonging to this big family!" "We'll see you at the next gala." "Who knows?" "Any of you could be the next winner." "Stop!" "See you soon!" "The goody-two-shoes is smarter than she looks!" "Orozco!" "You've never seen Victoria angry." "I mean really angry." "Take off the skirt." "Let's" "Orozco, take it." "What a mess!" "What did I say?" "A zipper!" "Not buttons, a zipper!" "I tried every shop in Mostoles!" "They didn't have zippers that long." "Open that." "What are you doing here?" "Where have you been?" "We have to hide." "The French are coming." "They're everywhere!" "What are you talking about?" "There's a firing squad in the square." "Get me out of here." "Don't let them catch us." "Come on." "A FEW MONTHS LATER" "Hello, my love." "There's something I haven't told you, although... you might already know." "I'll leave it there so you can take a look." "I highlighted the set-up and strengthened the plot beats." "They're more implicit than explicit now." "Well, basically, I cut out a lot of stuff we didn't need." "And just so you know, we both signed it." "Like I said, the title still doesn't convince me, but..." "I don't know, that's your call." "You're still here?" "It's New Year's Eve!" "The boss wanted me to finish the inventory." "Aurori's in the square, I'm on my way over." "I hear it's nuts." "Sorry." "I'll be right over." "Hello?" "Hello?" "I'm calling from Lafayette Productions." "From where?" "You'll never believe what happened!" ""Surprising, moving and thrilling."" "That they hadn't read anything like it in ages." "They want to shoot it in French." "And with who?" "Who?" "Victoria Abril!" "As the mayor of Mostoles' daughter." "Really?" "She got me the contact." "She's dying to do another Spanish movie." "Gorgeous!" "START YOUR OWN SILKWORM BUSINESS" "Excuse me." "You don't know me at all, but I know you." "You don't say!" "And you know what?" "I was angry with you for a long time, and now you're right in front of me and I don't feel angry anymore." "Anyway..." "Nice meeting you." "Take this every 8 hours." "Wait." "Look, I respect you as an artist." "You've made me and my family laugh a lot." "Until that empanadilla thing." "That's when I gave up on Martes y Trece." "I got pretty sick of it too." "What are you doing in Mostoles?" "Are we in Mostoles?" "That damn freeway!" "Watch out, someone may see you and throw rocks at you." "Yee-haw!" "Another bottle!" "Good lord." "I sort of got cynical this last year because it felt like the universe had turned against me." "Everything went wrong." "But finally I realized that if you try hard enough, you get what you wish for." "It's no coincidence that you and I met tonight." "Excuse me?" "I mean... you had unfinished business with me and the whole universe conspired to produce this encounter." "Phew!" "Why phew?" "No reason, it's a long story." "Okay." "Hey..." "Can you do me some Gloria Fuertes?" "You're kidding." "Listener requests!" "Please." "Always the same." "Look, because I like you." "Since I have my glasses..." "How did it go?" "The bird thing." "Oh, yeah." "Birds chirp, cats meow, spiders bite you and you say "ow."" "It's not as funny in person." "What do you mean?" "In the encyclopedia of Spanish humor there will be a profile and six pages about us." "Well, even a color photo!" ""Bicycle without a seat."" "Want to hear a secret?" "Okay." "The bicycle didn't have a seat." "Nati Mistral, Nati Mistral." "It was like..." "Look at the reflection of the moon on the river!" "I'm going to the river to wash my asshole!" "My husband told me to after he stuck in his pole!" "His pole in the river!" "And Rafael..." "Rafael." "Who knows...?" "Massiel." "It's easier to find roses in the sea." "Tina Turner." "If somebody had told me years ago" "I'd spend New Year's in Mostoles... talking all close to you," "I'd have peed all over myself." "By the way, what's your name?"
