"A bit of affection, at least sometime." "Your dad loved this nonsense." "He always played it." "You can bring it to him." "Now, let's see." "Here." "Take this, but it's not for your father, it's for you." "This, for when you were tiny." "This, for when you were little." "This, for when you were a little bit older." "This, a lot older." "This, even older." "This, from uncle Federico." "This, from me and this from Granddad." "Are we quits?" "Don't put mine in there." "I don't give money for piggy banks." "My 5 pesetas is to be spent at once." "Saving is your mother's idea." "No, it's mine." "I'm saving." "Saving up for what?" "To buy something." "How much does it cost?" "5,000 pesetas." "What can a boy want that's so expensive?" "A car, a pedal car." "When you get the car, you'll drive us." "Kia patro, tia filo!" "For fuck's sake, Pablo!" "What's on your mind?" "That's a toy for rich kids, and you're not rich, or your brother and sister." "Ask your father about his car." "It was a bit of cardboard," "It went like lightning!" "And... zero pesetas." "Life is my teacher." "Dad, don't scold him." "He won't come back." "I'm not scolding him." "I'm talking to him." "And how's Angel?" "In England." "You don't know where he is?" "Studying." ""Pablito in Wonderland."" "Take that and come with me." "Dad!" "We'll do the job of your father." "Dad!" "Will you come to see the procession this year?" "Will you come to my house?" "Like before the business with Angel?" "Yes, she'll go." "Leave it to me." "Thank you, Cuca." "Pablito!" "Granddad couldn't find him." "He'll come back soon." "He won't sleep in the street." "He's scared, he surely hid somewhere." "What was my father thinking?" "You know how he is." "Why does he interfere with my life?" "Now let's look for the child." "We'll go with you." "No, don't worry." "Estrella will kill me." "For now don't tell her." "It's a kid's thing." "I'll sort it out, Federico." "Don't you worry." "Goodbye." "Pablito." "Pablito!" "Come down." "I don't want to." "Come with me." "You?" "You don't exist." "They didn't tell you because you were too little." "But they were going to." "One day, coming out from university he was arrested." "For failing his exams?" "No." "For handing out propaganda." "For being political." "What do I say in school?" "Well, say what you feel." "Look," "I feel that Angel is good." "For me, he's the best." "And" "I feel that" "I really want him to come back and that he'll be very happy that you recall him so much" "and that it will all work out, as dad says." "What do you feel?" "That I'm a fibber." "Pablito!" "He's asleep." "Pablito, don't pay attention to Granddad." "Go to sleep." "Tomorrow I'll do what I must do." "Good night." "Yes, Don Pablo." "The mechanism is fine." "But there's nothing special about this clock." "Antique is one thing, old is another one." "López, what is special is that it's a friend who asks for it." "It's only for a few days, until I get some money." "I can't give you any more." "They'll scold me." "Add this in, and raise the price a bit." "Another forty pesetas." "That won't solve anything." "You know what it cost me to get your handwriting straight?" "You'll get me annoyed." "I can't give you any more!" "Lackey!" "Try your luck today." "The draw is today at 8.00 p.m." "Try your luck today." "Bonan tagon, sinjoro." "Hello, Don Pablo." "What an invention!" "How can you keep going on!" "When I think that tomorrow they'll kill our Lord Jesus Christ," "I have no desire to laugh." "You could have played a different record." "We've still got 20 minutes." "Don't be a wet blanket!" "That's your aunt." "I'll get it." "Would you like a drink?" "It's wonderful to see you!" "I'm answering the door because the maid is on her annual leave." "Really, your father is..." "Hello!" "Dad gave us this for the balcony." "Fine." "Didn't Roberto come?" "Yes, he went parking." "And he wanted to talk to you I don't know what stuff." "Have you got the TV on, Pablo?" "The TV?" "No." "It's being repaired." "The picture was bad." "How nice to see you all!" "Hello!" "Hello." "Come along, we're waiting inside for you." "Help Pablo to hang the flag from the balcony." "We're fasting, so we haven't cooked anything special, but Marie biscuits for the kids and a little sweet wine..." "Of course not." "See how nice?" "You've taken the clock away." "What a pity." "It gave the house a certain touch." "What a pity." "Pablo!" "Can I come out?" "Not yet, the guys are restless." "I'll let you know." "The costs aren't here." "Another 1,240 pesetas." "You said nothing about costs." "I'll go to the court on Monday." "No." "Right now, I'm the court, and as the costs weren't paid" "I hereby seize debtor's assets." "The following goods are seized." "What shall I put?" "Roberto..." "Don't make it harder for me." "I'm going through bad times, too." "Tell me what to put." "What you may like." "The apartment." "We'll seize that." "Don't be funny, Pablete." "I can't seize it." "You rent it." "The typewriters." "The typewriters still are not fully paid." "The car." "Have you bought it?" "Almost." "Not yet." "Have you got a TV?" "Yes, a Grundig." "Grundig!" "Where is it?" "Being repaired." "Brother-in-law, don't act the wise guy!" "What the hell can I seize?" "You've got no property." "The family crypt." "Give me a break." "The deeds are in my name." "Some things cannot be seized, out of humanity." "What do you have to seize?" "What's happening?" "The pilot is passing by!" "You go and look." "No, go out on the balcony." "Yes, Estrella, please." "Please, what?" "Roberto, I let you blow your nose until I got tired of it and you never thanked me." "Do what you want, I'm used to your rebuffs." "All of them." "Don't worry about me now." "I always blew my own nose." "On my own." "Pablito!" "Look at him!" "You gave us a fright!" "Where were you?" "Hello, Roberto." "What a surprise." "Come in." "No, we're off, you're crowded." "Federico will be passing any moment now." "I brought some loquats." "I'm sorry." "No, no, wait!" "Not at all." "You'll see better from here and there's room for everybody." "Come in, Don Angel." "And the costs?" "Roberto, we'll sort it out next Monday." "Let's see the procession, for the kids' sake." "I'm on duty, and I'm not moving until this is cleared out." "Let's do this right." "What must I seize?" "One minute, Roberto." "Let me think." "Are we still alive?" "Cuca, who is this gentleman?" "Nobody." "You want to play processions?" "No." "I'm not surprised that you wear shorts." "He doesn't want to play!" "What a useless cousin." "I won't come over anymore." "Pablito!" "Ask your father if I can come out." "Children!" "Children!" "The Romans!" "Look, there's your uncle!" "Feel the drums beating." "Can't you feel them inside?" "Yes, I can." "Yes, I can." "Federico!" "Why the hell did you put up this flag?" "Cuca!" "We're leaving, I won't be with an atheist." "An atheist and very respectable." "Wait a minute, Roberto!" "Where are you going, cowards?" "Where are you going?" "We need people with balls in this country." "Don't mess with the law." "There are 1,240 pesetas missing for the costs, and I won't wait longer!" "Don't be such a pain." "I'm watching the procession." "Give me the deeds of the vault." "Long live Spain!" "Long live Christ the King!" "Hurrah!" "Most of all, long live the war!" "Long live Russia, dammit!" "Long live Lenin!" "Flute player!" "We lost the war but not our dignity." "Clown!" "Falangists!" "With your trumpet and band of terrorists!" "Communist!" "Iconoclast!" "Jew!" "Dickhead!" "Is Pablito there?" "We don't want any scandal here!" "Open the door, Pablo!" "Don Pablo, this run out of control!" "Long live Spain and the National Syndicalist Revolution!" "Is Pablito here?" "Who is this?" "Be careful with guns, the Devil loads them." "You're all talk, Roberto." "Do you know how it works?" "At this distance I guess you'll hit me." "Be careful!" "Do what you have to do, Roberto!" "There aren't any cats, mom." "You're as thick as Abundio. (Abundio=the dumbest possible guy)" "Are there no men here to help your mother downstairs?" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Wait for me downstairs." "Do you want an umbrella?" "Pablo, how much longer will they keep busting our balls?" "This money is yours." "Don't you want the car?" "No." "Then I'll keep it for you till tomorrow." "Don't you trust me?" "When you're young you don't understand half of the things." "When you're older, things get clearer." "You're not going to welcome Stumpy." "We'll tell the school you got a sore throat." "The priests don't care." "And we'll go for a walk." "Do you want the car or not?" "I don't want the car." "All the better." "We'll pay your school fees." "That's the main thing." "Don't worry." "And the costs of the trial." "For the taps." "What...!" "And we'll buy a lottery ticket on a joint venture, you and me." "You want to?" "The two of us!" "Look, look!" "Now that's..." "Look at that!" "That's really unlucky." "They're a lot more unlucky than us." "Dad..." "What?" "With us..." "Why do they bust our balls?" "Our balls?" "What do you mean?" "Granddad says that." "Granddad!" "He knows where it hurts." "Well, come on!" "Let's get going." "We have to do an errand." "It's men's business." "In the words of Calderón." "Come on." "Come on." "You're all under arrest!" "Fuck, Pablo, don't say that, dammit!" "What brings you here?" "I want my share too." "Listen, Pablito." "You stay here watching the toys." "Pablito picked a pickle." "I won't have less nerve than the clergy." "Well, sursum cordam." "Don Pablo!" "Here, Pablo." "Your share." "This is your place." "The tower." "The janitor will leave the door open." "He's one of ours." "And may the Lord have mercy on our souls!" "We have to separate them." "If you don't, they stick together and they won't separate." "You have to separate them." "So when they hit the air, they get..." "They get scattered." "An image is worth more than 1000 words." "Look at this." "Good evening, comrades." "Please accompany us." "Pablito?" "Pablito." "You're to run on home." "Tell your mom I'll get there in a while." "She's not to worry." "I met some of my students." "Run on home." "Tell your mom that she's to hand out the propaganda." "Your father can't do it." "At times, we have to swallow our pride." "You know that if a favor is needed, you'll get it done." "Anything I can do." "But the remedy may be worse than the illness." "Pablo needs a lesson." "What do you need, Roberto?" "What do you need?" "One, two." "One, two." "Now!" "Traitor!" "Long live Russia!" "Dad!" "Well, well, long pants!" "How are you?" "Don Pablo, my mother cooked a hare stew." "What number won?" "I don't know." "What's wrong?" "The pants are too big." "You look very handsome." "Hey, did you go welcome Stumpy?" "No." "Well, are we going to eat this hare." "Magaña." "You forgot this." "Sure." "Estrella." "As the inspector plays domino with me we won't summon the Public Order Court for a bunch of clowns." "Think of it as a favor, sister." "Thank you, Roberto." "Thank you." "I don't know what to say." "A favor for a favor." "Enjoy it." "Hell!" "You shouldn't have bothered." "It was no bother." "Really, it wasn't." "Thank you for everything."
