3 idiotas (2017) - full transcript
A group of friends embark on a fun adventure determined to find a college roommate who disappeared without a trace on graduation day.
Ladies and gentlemen,
please be advised, all electronics...
- Hello?
- ...and cell phones must be turned off.
Sir?
Sir, I need you to
turn off your phone.
- Give me a second. It's important.
- I need you to turn it off now.
Yes?
What?
Everything okay?
Still?
I have to get off!
- Stop the plane, please! I must get off!
- Sir, I need you to sit down!
Sir! Sir! Sir!
Please, there's an emergency...
Let us through!
Let us through! Excuse us!
Where am I? Where am I?
I'm allve!
I feel fine!
- Alert! We have a situation!
- Sorry!
Hey! Hey!
My taxi!
- Hello?
- What's up? What are you doing?
- Here, working.
- They found Pancho.
What?
See you later!
- Your breakfast!
- Your pants!
- See you!
- Pull your pants up!
Beto? Beto?
- And this taxi?
- I stole It.
- What do you mean, you stole it?
- At the airport, with a family inside.
- Yeah! Where's Pancho?
- Pancho? I don't know.
- But you told me you found him!
- I'm not the one who found him!
Who found him, then?
Stinky Isidoro.
- Stinky Isidoro found Pancho?
- Yup, so prepare your nose.
Welcome. Come in.
Thank you.
- Is it here?
- Yes.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah. He sent me this address.
It looks like he's doing well.
Wow!
Excuse me. Thank you.
Look!
Stinky McToilet!
It's been a while since I smelled you.
Isidoro Velasco Campilllo, losers,
founder of Ibeca,
about to fuse with Teltech,
the largest technology company
in Latin America.
That's all.
You don't know what it is, right?
You like it?
$1.3 miliion!
And with the exchange rate...
Okay, and where is Pancho?
You've got such bad memory.
What's today? November 12.
Five years ago today,
I challenged Pancho
to see who would be more
successful with the years
And look!
Look around you.
Diplomas, awards, magazines.
Where am I?
Way up high, daddy-o!
Right, Mari?
She doesn't understand.
So where is Pancho?
You don't know?
Do you know where he is or not?
Let's go.
- Where is Pancho? Tell us!
- At a ranch, where else?
What did you expect?
- A ranch?
- Yes.
And we'll have to drive a lot to
find him, bring him out in the open.
Why all the mystery?
You'll see. There's much you
don't know about him. Lots.
What could be better than seeing
him again, all together?
How much did you know
about your friend?
You may wonder who Pancho is,
who can interrupt someone in the
bathroom, or got me off a plane.
Before you meet him, let me
tell you some of his qualities.
He's a good friend, stubborn as a mule,
brilliant, and from a good family.
This is our good Pancho.
He had it all to make it
and from one day to the next,
he disappeared.
Some say he went to another
country with his family,
others that he got married,
or was forced to marry,
and yet others claim he got an operation
and now calls himself Miroslava.
No one has heard from him to this day.
His disappearance affected everyone,
and especially her.
- She is Mariana.
- Come on! It's really late!
This is Felipe, the pride of Milpa Alta,
nopal district, and his whole family.
Felipe! Felipe! Felipe!
He's the first to go to college
in his family.
And this is me.
My dad decided I'd be an engineer
since the day I was born.
- It smells like the future.
- It doesn't smell like anything.
If you graduate with good grades,
you'll have the world in your hands, son.
3 IDIOTS
And as Felipe's uncle used to say:
"Friendship always starts
either with a good party,
or when the party’s over."
Catch it! Catch it!
Get it! Get it! Get it!
- I'm not doing anything to you!
- What's this?
Yuck! You really think this
brings you luck?
Give it back to him!
Give it back to him!
- He wants to cry!
- He won't.
He wants to cry!
- Look what I found!
- Hey, give me my phone!
Don't take his phone!
Hey, don't get violent!
Okay, enough! Give him back his stuff!
- Or what?
- Or what?
What's wrong with him?
My phone!
Your keys! Let's go, let's go!
What are you doing?
After them, come on!
Come on, shorty, move!
- Run, run!
- It's closed!
- Here! This way!
- Run, run!
- Go! Go!
- No! My backpack! My backpack!
Tell them something!
Come on!
- Here, this is yours.
- Thanks!
My camera's inside my bag!
- All is well, all is well.
- What do you mean: all is well?
- It's all right.
- Nothing's all right!
- Come out of there or I'll...
- What?
- What?
- I'll piss on your backpack!
- Good!
- I'll poop on it!
- No. Better.
- Okay, I'll piss on your bag!
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
- You have ten...
- Ten.
You'll see.
...eight...
- What's this?
- We tie it up here.
Hold on. When I tell you...
you turn it on.
- Get back!
- ...two...
- Hold this.
- Okay.
- Are you ready?
- Here come the Niagara Falls!
Turn it on.
- Turn it off, turn it off!
- What happened?
Let's get out of here! Come on.
Oh, Lord!
- Oh, no!
- No way!
I hope my camera didn't get wet.
After that, Isidoro never ate
another hardboiled egg.
He made the whole corridor
smell like burnt chicken.
Straight ahead.
- There's the infirmary!
- Wait, wait!
With her!
The one with the lab coat!
- Let's go with her.
- Where's the infirmary?
To the right.
- What happened?
- Up we go!
What's wrong?
- He got electrocuted.
- Electrocuted?
- Yes.
- With what?
It's a long story.
- Hello, Mariana.
- Hello, Beto.
Being the children
of prominent engineers,
Mariana and I had known
each other for a long time.
You did what to his what?
Maybe you could...
check him out.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm!
His scrotum is scorched.
We thought maybe you'd have
more experience in that area.
- Oh, my God.
- Since you're a doctor and all.
Biomedical engineering
and medicine student.
All new students, please gather
at the auditorium
for the Chancellor's welcome.
I think we have to go.
- Yes.
- Let's go.
I haven't washed my hands.
I'm not scorched.
That's bad luck, I pass.
Ah.
Tsk.
No way, they're your friends.
- See you.
- What?
- Bye! Thanks!
- So mean!
- Good morning!
- Good morning.
I'm very happy to see
each and every one of you
on your first day of school.
And for the official welcome...
We want to introduce you
to our beloved professor,
- Mr. Escalona.
- Hi.
Thank you, Doctor, Ma'am.
Gentlemen, good morning.
What's the definition of perfection?
Anyone?
The state or quality of being
devoid of defects, sir.
That's correct.
A bridge is a symbol of perfection.
Each step in its construction
must be perfect.
- Is that clear?
- Yes!
Yes, sir, Mr. sir, right, sir.
Unlike the lies
your parents have told you,
not all of you are geniuses.
Look to your right.
Look to your left.
This is the competition
you will have out there.
For example, this bridge...
is perfect.
Perfection is what we
demand from you.
Perfection is what you
must demand from yourselves.
- Excuse me, Mr...
- Escalona.
Escalona.
To build that bridge, didn't the engineers
have to make several mistakes
before finding what is perfect?
I took this piece
from a very beautiful bridge.
Can you tell me how I got
this piece from a bridge
where each piece,
each beam, each stone
Is supposed to be
perfect and unmovable? No!
You don't know.
This is what happens
when you break the rules.
Do you know how many lives
depend on you?
Don't make mistakes.
Unless you want to belong
to the losers' club,
- like Mr...
- Pancho Kuri.
And no, sir, I always want to improve.
I just believe we can learn
from our mistakes.
Oh, my, the loser's theory.
It's not my theory,
but Thomas Alva Edison's,
the inventor of electricity.
Whoo!
Not everyone clapped.
- Well, almost.
- Almost.
- Almost everyone.
- Pretty much everyone.
Whoo!
The semester was just starting
and we noticed Pancho was taking
all the classes he could,
which, curiously enough, happened to be
the same classes Mariana took.
Biochemical engineering.
Who enrolls in that, for God's sake?
Professor, it's almost finished.
I tested it this morning
with a couple of seeds.
- It's going to work! Well...
- But does it work now?
- Let me talk to your father.
- What for?
Let me talk to him.
Hello? Dad, I'm with
Professor Escalona...
Mr. Valtierra! Good morning.
I have news.
Your son will not be graduating
because he was late
in delivering his invention,
so don't worry about getting tickets
to the graduation.
Have a nice day. Bye.
No! But... Professor!
One week, please!
No!
I was late because my mother
had to be hospitalized.
My wife died on a Sunday afternoon,
and on Monday I was back here teaching.
Rules are rules.
No functioning invention,
no diploma.
Hey!
What do you have there?
Let's see. Come on!
Oh, ho, ho...
- What is it?
- Wi-Fi seeds.
- What?
- When there's an emergency,
you plant them, water them,
and a router comes out.
- What do you need?
- I need to generate a magnetic field.
- I already have a catalyst. Yeah.
- The water!
You have to contain
the generated energy?
Direct it.
- It's a great invention!
- It sure is.
- He flunked him?
- Big time.
Who says "big time" anymore?
Okay, who touched my charms?
Mm-hmm!
Hold on!
- You took these?
- Yes.
- They're pretty good.
- My dad either hates them
or they piss him off.
No, no, they're pretty good.
- Amazing.
- For real?
-Yes.
- Sorry to interrupt, but...
these wi-fi seeds don't
sound very real to me.
And did Skype, WhatsApp, drones
sound real?
Landing on the moon or Mars?
I don't think either of us can help him.
We have our own project to work on.
- Right, Beto?
- Yes!
Besides, Escalona's out to get you.
- You better not mess with him.
- Yeah.
You are blaming me because
Valtierra's no longer here?
- No.
- Sit properly, please!
I'm not blaming anyone,
but what's the use of a modern school
If you have a rigid
and old-fashioned system?
With my system, my class
is still number one.
But according to what scale,
Professor?
The world is no longer
the one you studied in.
We students are getting increasingly
more creative and proactive,
but we have to face professors,
with all due respect, like you.
Your teaching doesn't change.
There's no talk about innovation,
only about grading, winning, overcoming.
There's nothing about
imagining, creating...
You are going to teach me how to teach?
Come on, let's go.
- But...
- Let's see.
- We'll see...
- Careful with the stairs, Professor!
- You'll hurt your knees!
- You should've thought of that before!
You're in great shape,
I'm surprised.
Ms. Molina, please take a seat.
This self-proclaimed teacher
says he's better than our staff,
so go ahead, Mr. Kuri, teach.
Come on, we don't have all day!
- Forgive me, Ma'am.
- Okay.
These two words should
have an effect on you.
And this effect has the power
to help millions.
Even to save lives.
Whoever tells me their meaning,
passes the class.
- Oh, no, you can't...
- It's all right, let him.
You can use your books,
notes, Google...
but you have only 30 seconds, and...
We're on the clock!
Give me your book.
Mr. Velasco...
The definition must be here...
Come on, look for it!
Lend me your notebook.
What's that?
Time!
Mr. Escalona, time Is up.
No one has the answer, right?
Go back 30 seconds in time,
to the moment I asked the question.
How did you feel? Mm?
Surprised? Nervous?
Curious about learning something new?
Because robots are programmed
to repeat concepts,
patterns, to follow rules,
but there is a difference
between being a robot
and being the robot designer:
curiosity, ingenuity.
This is not a philosophy class.
Can you give us the definition
of those words?
These words don't exist, sir.
They're the names of my friends:
Beto and Felipe.
And this is how you plan to teach
engineering?
No, sir, I could never.
I'm just teaching you how to teach.
And I know that you'll learn,
because I never abandon
my slower students.
- Silence.
- He called him a fool!
Silence!
You better invent
as well as you talk, Mr. Kuri.
Because without an invention
that actually works,
you won't graduate.
And I'm the one
who signs the diplomas.
Time went by and
we became inseparable.
We were the three best friends.
Or, as Escalona called us,
the three idiots.
Stop studying, man, come on.
We all lived in the house
my aunt rented to me
and were known around campus
for having the best barbecues.
And Pancho, who claimed
he knew everything,
still didn't dare speak to Mariana.
Let's go.
Okay, how do we make
a nanopill?
We'll need the school's AFM
plus someone who knows more
about human biology than us.
That's true.
It's from Beto.
Check it out!
We're going to a wedding tonight.
- Hey, so...
- But how will we get in?
I was going to say,
we don't have invitations.
Great! Beto's aunt just saved us.
- What?
- To the storeroom!
Good evening.
- Hello, good evening.
- Hello. Your invitations?
We don't have them, but we're here
for the aerial gymnastics show.
And juggling.
- One second.
- Sure.
Juan, the aerial gymnastics
guys are here.
What's up, dude?
Where did you find those costumes?
- Be right back.
- Those sure are tight, yo!
These are very nice.
- Let's take a selfie.
- Yes, yes.
- There we are.
- Ready?
- It's really nice!
- Pedro, come here a sec, please.
- See you later.
- Yes.
- Seriously?
- What?
Where's the Cartier watch I gave you?
- Well, I...
- You didn't like it?
Er, I...
You didn't like it, because if you had
you'd be wearing it!
No, the thing is...
The thing is what?
- Are you serious?
- Smile for the magazine.
Thank you.
Hello? Oh, hi Mom!
No, I just didn't have-
What a catch!
What are you doing here?
I'm here to bring you these.
And for the show.
They're identical to the ones
on the tables, of course.
You can't hide good taste.
May I have your glass for a second?
Why?
I don't want you to break it on my head
after I give you a piece of advice.
Your boyfriend is not good.
He treats you like an object,
he only cares about money
and he'll make you miserable.
Did I ask for your opinion?
I bet you a date to the movies
that in under a minute he'll tell you
the price of his shoes.
Deal.
Come on, Mom, it has to be white,
don't be ordinary.
Tell me, idiot!
What's your problem, man?
Careful with my shoes!
They're $600!
$600! Ever earned that?
No, right?
Goddammit!
So, what are you doing at this party
with that arrogant boyfriend?
It's my sister's wedding.
- So you're here with your family?
- Yes, I am.
In fact, that tall man over there
is my dad.
Please tell me you
take after your mom.
- That's what they say.
- I'd love to meet her.
- Where is she?
- In the graveyard.
- At this hour?
- She's dead.
I'm sorry.
What about that?
Come check it out,
I was just looking at it.
What do you think?
I just found her.
She's gorgeous! I mean, she's perfect,
anatomically speaking.
- Everything's in place.
- In place!
Hug her, like she was
your ice girlfriend.
Okay!
- Cool, dude!
- Yeah.
- It's awesome.
- It is.
- No.
- Yes, dude.
- No, no way.
- Yes, do it!
They won't see you. Do it!
You haven't told me what you're
doing here dressed as Jiminy Cricket?
Some high class friends invited me.
No one says "high class friends".
- They don't?
- No.
Who was it? Beto?
Do it!
Cool!
Look at this, dude!
This is-
What?
It's stuck?
You sneak into my sister's wedding,
dressed like in Swan Lake...
Hold on!
...and you criticize my sister's wedding,
my family, and my dad.
Hold on, one...
What else?
Who do you think you are?
- ...two...
- Bond.
James Bond.
Jesus!
Trust me, man!
Remove yourself!
Oh, shit!
- Shit!
- Put it out!
They ruined my wedding, Dad!
Oh, shit!
Let's go, let's go!
Security!
That was the first time Pancho
approached Mariana.
- Grab those three idiots!
- Run!
And as far as I remember,
it was terrible!
As you can see,
it's a beautiful structure.
You must emulate it.
Good morning, Ms. Molina.
Good morning, Professor Escalona.
Pop quiz. Hand it out.
- What?
- Silence!
But nobody told us!
Silence! It's quite easy.
No buts!
You can thank these three idiots.
As you know, if you don't pass the test,
you have to repeat the semester.
Come on, man!
What did you eat?
- What's that, Isidoro?
- What? It wasn't me!
Silence!
- Who's rotting?
- Professor, please!
Leave the classroom!
Cowards!
Finish the test!
We're sorry about what happened
at the wedding, Professor.
You're all expelled.
- What?
- How?
Only the three of them!
You are all expelled.
You heard me!
Let's see what other weddings you ruin.
I only have one daughter left.
I'm sorry, Professor,
but you can't expel us.
It was a private event
outside the campus.
So what?
Rules are rules.
The board wouldn't agree.
- Damn you all.
- Not that, either.
Go finish your test.
Sir,
if you'll excuse me,
Pancho is a terrible student.
I can keep an eye on him for you.
You'll be the first to know
the next stupid thing he does.
- One last thing, Mr. Isidoro Velasco.
- Yes?
The next time you need to pass gas,
don't do it indoors.
Look for an open space.
Yes.
I'll keep you posted.
- Stop here!
- Here! Stop now!
Okay, I'm stopping.
- It's horrible!
- No, no, no!
Open up!
You should at least warn us!
It smells like rotten fish!
It wasn't me.
You're responsible for global warming,
you stinker!
What? Global warming?
After my appointment
with Teltech's CEO.
I'll have enough funds
to solve that problem.
That and the extinction of polar bears.
And helping the penguins.
You know how many penguins
up in that mountain need your help?
You know how many?
What the hell-
Who- What?
He has an appointment with
the president of Teltech.
The greatest company, I told-
You didn't read Expansion?
Go ahead, take a gander.
Culture.
- Here's your magazine, okay?
- What?
Jealous? Look at me.
Success! Pancho's not even
featured in the horoscopes.
Isidoro was right,
and I don't get it.
I was sure Pancho would be the one
of magazine covers.
Halfway through our studies,
he had shown all of us his genius
and his hunger for success.
Can someone tell me how this is
related to AFM,
that is, atomic microscopy.
- Pancho?
- Yes.
Nanotechnology works with atoms,
and atoms are energy.
The cool thing about the little pill
is that it has nanomagnetic particles
that merge with
cancer cells in the blood.
This will help us
detect cancer way sooner,
and with more precision
than any other technology.
We only have to do some tests.
- That's all?
- That's all.
But we have a digestive problem.
How do we stop gastric acid
from destroying the transmitter?
How's your robot going?
Quite well! Want to see it?
- It's right over here.
- Sure!
- Can I take a picture?
- As many as you want.
You mind if I take a picture?
Okay, a bit more to the right
and grab the apple.
That's it.
It's absolutely incredible.
What's the helmet for?
The helmet is so you can
move it with your thoughts.
- I don't get it.
- Thanks!
He means the brain's electric impulses,
whenever you think.
Imagine just thinking about taking
the picture and then it takes it.
- That's the idea.
- Cool!
Oh, geez.
- Why's the Finder-
- What is this? Copy?
And that's
how another semester ended.
Here we are!
We're top in our class!
First, second and third place!
I knew we'd worked hard!
Let me take a picture.
Yeah. A selfie.
You were not first and second,
you were last and next to last.
What's the big difference
between last and first?
We were 200 students.
- I barely made it, I'm the last.
- And I'm next to last.
Here I am, 6.2.
Why is he so mad?
Because he came in second.
Imagine that.
- Who's in first?
- Pancho.
He can do that, I can't!
My family's on my case,
they'd never forgive me.
Not my mom, nor my dad,
my uncles, my cousins,
my siblings, my nephews,
no one would forgive me!
Felipe's family was so happy about
their son finishing the semester
that we threw a celebratory barbecue.
Come in! Welcome!
And he got so mad!
But I went for it.
- Your cousin is really cool!
- What cousin?
That guy over there.
- What are you playing?
- No, no, no, that's a she.
That's Chela, she's not a guy.
- You thought so too, didn't you?
- I'm not talking!
Hey! Pitch in, pitch in!
Come on!
Come on, don't play dumb!
Over here!
What's it for, Grandma?
We've been doing this
since my Felipe was a kid.
We all pitch in to pay
for his tuition, right, son?
- That's right, Grandma! Thanks.
- That's cool.
- You're welcome.
- I'm not opening!
- No!
- I'm not opening the door!
- Me neither.
- Who else is coming?
-Who is it?
- Hi, it's Mariana.
Hi! How are you?
I saw on Facebook you're
having a barbecue?
Yes, you want to come in?
- May I?
- Of course!
- You brought dessert! Delicious.
- Thank you.
Make yourself at home.
Wow, so much famiiy!
That's great!
...and the ant said to the elephant:
"I've got him, I've got him!"
The joke about the ant,
that's a funny one!
- You know what's funny too?
- What?
That's funny!
It's funny having to console your sister
because a jerk
like you ruined her wedding!
- Hey!
- No, hold on, dude!
Where I come from,
you don't interrupt women.
Mariana, she's not a dude,
she's a girl and she's my cousin.
This is my family,
not Pancho's family.
Why didn't anybody stop me?
Because I don't interrupt women.
Bring her some water!
Are you okay?
- Take a sip!
- No, take it away!
- Mariana!
- Mariana knows about this.
- An ambulance!
- There's no time for an ambulance!
Let's move her together!
Let's take her to the truck!
- Be careful!
- Call an ambulance!
- Watch out! Watch out!
- This way.
- Come through!
- Come on, cousin!
- To the truck!
- To the truck! In the back!
Please, I need an ambulance.
Quickly, please! Someone is choking!
What do you mean
you don't have an ambulance?
Why isn't the truck starting?
We won't make it! The ambulance
won't make it on time!
Yes, we will! Felipe!
Some rope! Bring her here!
The keys!
- Hold on! Hold on!
- All is well.
- How are you?
- She just fainted!
No, no, no, wake her up!
We're going to fall!
Take that exit!
- Which one?
- That one!
- You missed the exit again!
- Which one? I didn't see it!
- Can you please tell me in advance?
- Can you stop arguing?
- Mariana?
- What?
This is the beginning
of a beautiful friendship.
EMERGENCY
Please!
Here.
Mom! Mom!
It's "the mummy".
- Your family's great!
- Thank you.
- And yours?
- What?
Your family.
Where are they?
- Traveling, as always.
- Ah.
Look!
Well, we had to perform
a tracheotomy.
Fortunately you brought her in time.
It saved her life.
Now she's in a good mood,
she's cracking jokes with the nurse,
one about an elephant, an ant..
"Strangle him, strangle him!"
Thanks.
You too, Mariana. Thank you.
The important thing Is
that he's all right.
- She!
- She! Yes, she!
You're very good
at insulting people.
Sony, I feel horrible.
A movie would make up for it,
and you owe me.
I can't.
Mr. Moneybags would scold you?
- No one says "moneybags." No.
- They don't?

True.
Who was the second?

Anybody?
No one?
Exactly.
No one remembers

So, guys, do you think it'll work?
It has to, because I'm this close to
being kicked out of school.
I know all the answers, but as soon as
I'm sitting in front of the test,
I don't know what happens.
If you keep on leaving it up to luck,
it's going to get worse.
- How many lucky charms do you have?
- Thirteen.
The Atlante bottle opener also counts.
One for fear, for the test,
for money, work, your family,
who are amazing.
How can you live here and now
if you fear what's coming so much?
It's easy for him to talk because
he has his life figured out. I don't.
- I have to work twice as hard as you.
- We don't all have your brain.
It's not about the brain.
It's about passion.
I do well at school because
I'm passionate about learning.
I'm passionate about inventing.
It's about doing it right,
Mexican style.
What about you, dude?
Give me your backpack.
- What?
- What is it?
No, don't mess with my camera!
Pancho, be careful, dude!
Ah, the best nature photographer
ever is teaching a course in Portugal,
and he won't send the letter.
- The problem's my dad.
- No way!
- It's not your dad!
- The problem is you.
You're not an engineer,
you're a photographer,
and a good one.
Imagine Chicharito's dad saying:
"You're going to be a singer,"
or Juan Gabriel's mom telling him:
"You, son, will be a soccer player."
We're not all good or bad at everything,
we're born with a specific talent.
You want to do well?
Follow your passion.
You don't take success, money
or fame to the grave,
but you do take the pleasure of
fulfilling your passion.
- Cheers to that.
- Cheers.
Don't play, though.
You're scared too.
Scared of what?
Hey...
Mariana, sucker.
You're scared of Mariana!
- He's scared of Mariana.
- That's a different subject!
No, It's not!
Tell Mariana you're crazy about her.
Tell Mariana you think about her
all the time.
Tell her you want her to be
the mother of your little Panchos.
- Tell her!
- And I'm the corny one!
If you tell Mariana
you're crazy for her,
I'll tell my dad I want
to be a photographer.
- Beto, do you mean it?
- I mean it.
If Beto does that,
I'll throw away all of my lucky charms.
Huh?
- He's quiet now.
- Silence.
Total silence, he's at a loss for words.
Okay.
- The cat got his tongue!
- No, no, no.
You'll see I'm not scared of her.
Come on, let's go.
- Wait, where are you going?
- Where else?
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
- Let's follow him.
- Let's go.
Who's going to pay?
Mariana! Mariana!
Psst! Psst! Mariana!
Hello.
- What are you doing here?
- Oh, you know, just looking at the stars.
- Are you crazy?
- Yes, a little bit.
Do you want to go out with me?
- What?
- Do you want to go out with me?
- You're an idiot.
- Do you want to go out with an idiot?
- And if l don't?
- Then I'll die trying!
No, no, no, come up!
- Come up!
- Did you say yes?
- Okay, yes.
- Wow, you sure took your time.
Whoa!
Pancho! No way!
Pancho!
I need mouth to mouth.
Are you all right?
You really scared me!
- It was good.
- Yes, it was good, okay.
- Okay, go home.
- Come with me.
- No, go.
- Come with me.
No! No way!
Are you all right?
- Yeah, I didn't get hurt, I'm fine.
- You sure?
Okay.
- It looked more dramatic than it was.
- It looked very dramatic.
If my dad knew I was here,
at this hour, in my pajamas, with you?
- He'd kill me.
- He would. Your father hates me.
You know, you and my dad have
more in common than you think?
- Yeah, right.
- Seriously.
- No way.
- Yes!
You're both obsessive,
you strive for excellence...
Yes, but he's military style.
I understand about the bridge,
about mistakes and all that.
- Look.
- No, you don't get the bridge thing.
I don't? Why not?
Um... we were going on vacation
to Acapulco
and my mom was driving.
She was on the phone with my dad.
And then...
A tension cable became loose,
and then another...
and then another one.
My dad heard everything because
they were on the phone.
I'm so sorry.
He became obsessed
with all his students being perfect.
Of course...
- Those metallic pieces are...
- From the bridge, yes.
Oh, God.
- I'm sorry, I didn't know.
- I'm getting too intense now.
But that's what it was all about,
so we could know each other better.
- And what's up with you?
- About what?
Yes, what's up with your family?
What's your dad like?
My family, my dad.
Let's see...
My dad is...
My dad is always traveling.
That's how it is.
What makes you happy?
Right now?
Well, yeah.
I don't know, right now this...
No, no, no, you want to get me wet, right?
Let's go together!
- Yes!
- No way! Your dad!
What?
You fool...
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Get a room!
Stop singing.
- Here?
- Yes, it's here.
- Come on.
- I'll stop here.
- Let's go!
- Super!
- I forgot my keys!
- What?
I didn't bring my keys!
- We'll jump.
- Let's jump.
Stand on me!
- I'm sorry.
- Yes, yes, yes.
- I can't!
- You're so heavy!
- Ready?
- Yes!
Be quiet!
Come this way!
That's my dad's room!
I can't believe this!
Look!
- Another fountain!
- No!
Why don't you jump in
and kiss again?
If you go...
- Now, now.
- This way.
Climb up and you pull her up.
I'll push.
- You want me to climb?
- Yes!
- No.
- Here.
One, two and...
Look at his hand!
That's cheating!
- Let's do this more often.
- Don't speak so loudly.
It got tangled!
Okay, you did it.
Give me your hand,
you can do it, trust me.
I'm scared!
- Don't be scared.
- You did it!
What a nice view!
Mariana, is that you?
Marianuchis!
- Come on!
- Go!
- Come down!
- Careful, Beto!
- You got me?
- Yes! Felipe!
I'm coming, my rabbit's foot
fell!
Mariana, is that you?
Felipe! Come down, dude!
We'll see you outside.
I don't know, Dad,
it was a possum or something!
- A possum?
- I mean...
- Ochoa?
- Professor Escalona.
Hey! You ruined my car!
Come here!
- What's this?
- Diana?
She-
She wouldn't stop throwing up,
I had in take her to the hospital.
- Are you all right?
- Yes.
I'm pregnant.
- What?
- Yes!
You're going to be a grandpa, Dad!
How exciting!
Check it out.
- Silence.
- I caught them all on Omega Ruby.
I have gathered all the engineers
to let you know that the Chancellor is
arriving two weeks ahead of schedule.
What do you mean, two weeks?
So the presentation of your inventions
will be two weeks earlier.
The question here Is:
Who has an invention ready
to show the Chancellor right now?
Me. I have one and I'm ready
to show it at any time.
Yeah, sure.
Very well, Mr. Velasco.
What is it?
Well, it's a pill-sized device
that works with an app.
- Hey, that's our invention!
- He stole it!
I've been working on it for months.
Okay, let's see.
Mr. Kuri, do you have a way
to prove it's yours?
Yes, yes, yes.
We haven't patented it yet,
but this guy's always spying on us.
Do you have proof?
No, professor.
Mr. Velasco, what do you have?
A prototype?
Because the Chancellor wants to see
that your invention really works.
I can make it work,
but not in two weeks.
I can have it ready.
Of course not! You don't know what
you're doing! It's not ready yet.
Of course I know what I'm doing,
it's my idea.
Now I'll get him!
Enough! That is enough!
Whoever the impostor is,
I'll get to the bottom of this.
You can go back to your classes.
Mr. Ochoa, I'll see you in my office.
- In your office?
- We have to talk about this.
- Write.
- Yes, sir.
- I want to apologize for last night...
- Write.
- Yes.
- "Dear Mr. Ochoa,
I regret to inform you
that your son, Felipe Ochoa,
has been expelled from school."
- Write!
- You can't do this to me.
My whole family
works hard to see me graduate.
I have your grades, Mr. Ochoa.
You've failed many tests.
Sir, I beg you.
Give me another chance.
Yes.
Delete you name...
Write Francisco Kuri's,
and the two of us will write together
the letter that expels your friend.
If someone deserves
to graduate, it's Pancho, not me.
I see.
Okay.
That's all.
You're the first Ochoa
to go to college.
And what a college, son!
You're going to make it far!
I'll let your family know, man!
All is well!
How is he?
The blunt force trauma and brain swelling
have resulted in a coma.
Will he be all right?
Well, that depends on him.
He can hear us.
Let's tell him things that'll wake him up.
Miss, do you sell
timeshares in this place?
We'll need some
for the Ochoa family.
Hi, see what we brought.
Don't make us use it on you!
Come on, wake up!
Come on!
Felipe!
Felipe's coma
got all of us thinking.
It gave me the courage to ask the
photographer I most admired for a job.
Hello, Ernesto, I'm very interested...
You can't expel students
at the drop of a hat.
Those kids arrive at this school
full of hope.
Just because you lost yours,
doesn't mean you have
to take it away from them!
Our philosophy is excellence,
and compassion, as well.
And If you don't agree,
you can resign.
Escalona cancelled it,
you're not expelled!
Here it is, cancelled!
So there's no excuse, move
that skinny behind and come back.
Felipe, wake up!
Wake up, Felipe, wake up!
Blow out the candles!
Blow! Very good!
Congratulations!
Go, Felipe! Go, Felipe!
Felipe, wake up!
Atlante made it to first division!
Atlante won?
Yes, 3-2 at the last minute,
it was amazing,
Herrera takes it, everyone attacks,
he runs to the other side,
gives a great kick and what a pass,
Doctor! It was perfect!
Uscanga has it, eludes one,
eludes another,
It's like a Sweet Sixteen ball!
He leaves the defense behind,
only the goalkeeper is left,
he dances with him, what a play!
- He kicks it and...
- Goal!
Goal!
- He woke up!
- He woke up!
You're such a liar.
Shh! What?
You're such a liar.
Uscanga hasn't scored
a goal in two seasons.
Thank you.
I'll take your picture.
Look this way!
And the day of the job
interviews arrived.
Turn!
It's a dangerous turn!
You promised you'd get rid
of your charms.
This white Ganesh is for good vibes.
This is for good luck.
This is for abundance, here.
The main lady. Here.
This is for protection.
This is my favorite, my Buddha.
Ta-da!
It arrived at home.
What does it say?
"Humberto Cervantes Del Rio."
Here. Open it.
Come on, open it!
Open it!
I'd like you to be my assistant
while I'm In Portugal...
Holy crap!
He liked my pictures
and wants me to go to Portugal with him
as his assistant!
You see?
- Good.
- What am I going to tell my dad?
Remember our promise?
Well, now you have to go back home.
All is well.
Good luck.
Congratulations!
Go on, guys.
- Come on.
- Are you ready?
Turn here.
- All is well.
- Thanks!
While Felipe faced the most important
challenge of his career,
I was facing the most important
challenge of my I life:
Telling my dad the truth
and opening my heart to him.
What happened to you?
I...
I had been expelled.
I was walking down the street
and a car hit me.
Why were you expelled?
Because I got very drunk and ruined
the Dean's car. That's why.
Even though you have a scholarship,
your grades are not the best.
Why is that, Mr. Ochoa?
Fear.
I've always been a good student,
but I'm also the first in my family
to go to college,
and the truth is that it really scared me.
I was scared of letting them down.
But seven broken bones gave me
enough time to think about everything.
I'm no longer afraid.
Quite the opposite, I'm happy and grateful
that I'm here, with you, alive.
Your candid demeanor
is not necessarily what we're looking for
in this company.
Hmm.
We need someone more diplomatic
to handle the clients.
However, if you're willing
to change your attitude,
we can consider you for the company.
Look, sir,
It took two broken legs for me to stand up
and have this attitude.
Believe me,
I won't change it for anything.
You know what? Keep the job.
I'm wasting my time here with you.
Mr. Ochoa.
I have interviewed thousands
of candidates over the years.
The truth is that they all become,
please pardon my French,
ass-kissers to get the job.
I see.
- Where do you come from?
- From my family, sir.
Welcome.
Thank you.
Dad, have you heard the saying:
"Turn your passion into your profession
and your job will feel like a game?"
That Pancho guy
put ideas into your head!
It's not that, Dad.
I don't want to be an engineer.
I'm really bad at it.
But when I grab a camera, Dad,
when I grab a camera,
I can spend eight or ten hours...
And I don't feel them.
And you'll drop out of college
a year shy of graduation?
What will Escalona say when he hears
you're going off to photograph
streetcars and birdies?
The Dean didn't take me
in the zoo, Dad.
He didn't carry me on his shoulders
after working 12 hours straight
so I could see the elephants.
It was you.
Dad, you gave me my first camera.
It was you, no one else.
But you'll starve as a photographer, son.
So what If I don't make much money
or I have a smaller home
if I'm happy doing what I like, Dad?
Dad! Dad!
How much is that trip to Portugal?
Thank you!
Pancho!
What happened?
- About what?
- With Isidoro.
Nothing, everything's the same.
I'm so angry he's presenting
your idea,
and you're so calm?
Look, yesterday a friend got
out of the hospital and got his first job.
The other will finally be a photographer,
and today you're here with me.
What more can I ask for?
Ta-da!
Open it, don't break it.
You're a wonderful corny man,
Pancho Kuri.
Me, corny?
Life is corny. It gave me you...
Let's go.
- You made this?
- With my own two hands.
Don't ask!
Thank you, everybody. It's an honor to be
here presenting my project.
You have been a column,
a pillar in my education, a great teacher.
Thank you, Chancellor,
for being here.
You two are the most important people
in my life...
right now.
Let's begin.
Here it is.
The pill.
For the morning after?
A technology that can save lives.
All I have to do is drink some water...
...and wait a couple of minutes
for it to start working.
What you see here is an app
that works with the nanopill.
A pill with nanocircuits
that can send out
my heart rate,
my blood pressure,
all of my vital signs...
Wow! I know.
You're all wondering: "Isidoro,
what's this wonderful pill for?"
To prevent diseases
before it's too late.
Goodbye, cancer, dengue,
chikungunya,
athlete's foot, erectile dysfunction.
I'm saving the worid!
That's the goal.
At any moment all the data
will be transmitted,
my heart rate, all my vital signs.
What we're starting to see
here on the computer...
What we're starting to see here in the
computer at the top...
It's a normal-
They're coming... they're...
It's a technical error.
Stinky McToilet!
- Stinky McToilet!
- No, no, no!
Stinky Isidoro!
Stinky Isidoro!
No, no, no! Silence!
Oh, God! I'll see you in my office,
Mr. Velasco.
It was him! He ruined my invention!
If it was yours,
you would have tested it!
Silence!
Do you think this is a circus?!
It's a respectable institution!
You both have until tonight
to tell the truth,
otherwise you'll be expelled
before the finals.
And you, change your clothes,
you stink!
Get out!
- What are you laughing at?
- Yuck!
We ask everyone to stay
inside and not go out.
The city has collapsed.
When does your shift end, Mariana?
I'll be in the hospital until 6:00 AM.
I won't make it to see Dad.
I'll give him his present later.
I have to hang up, we're swamped.
Yes, Mariana.
It's beautiful, darling!
Come on, blow out the candles.
Bravo!
I love you.
- Dad!
- What is it?
My water broke!
Take me to the hospital!
Professor Escalona...
Professor Escalona, I...
I...
- Dad!
- I need an ambulance!
Come on!
- Ah!
- Oh, no!
Come on, come.
Put me down.
Come on, Diana.
Come on!
Hello! Hello,
I need an ambulance!
What do you mean
you don't have one?
- My daughter is about to give birth!
- Dad! Dad, no!
Wait, Diana!
I'll go get a taxi!
Hello! Hello! Hello!
Hello?
Mariana... Mariana, I'm giving birth!
What?
- Do you think you can hold on?
- No! I'm giving birth!
Diana! What is it?
- I'm Pancho.
- Here's Mariana.
- Mariana!
- Okay, Pancho, listen to me.
The city is flooded, you won't make it.
You'll have to help her.
- To give birth?
- Yes!
Okay, okay, okay.
Let's go. No...
Breathe.
Don't leave!
No way!
Okay, I have an idea. Let's put
the phone magnet close to the seeds,
see If they work. Okay?
Help!
Help, please!
Diana's giving birth in the parking lot!
- What?!
- Felipe, prepare the room!
Let's help her!
Bring the raincoats.
Help me!
- We're here.
- We're here, come, relax.
Relax, relax!
- You wait here for Escalona!
- Okay.
All is well! All is well!
All is well!
Escalona!
Where is Diana? Where is she?
- Pancho took her.
- What are you doing here?
- This way.
- God dammit!
Grab her.
Mariana!
Get on Skype.
Skype with Mariana,
connect with her.
- There she is. Mariana, Mariana!
- Let Diana see me!
- Mariana, I can't do it!
- You can! I'm here with you!
What are you doing here?
Dad, you have to trust us!
There's no choice!
Beto, go get scissors and hot water!
Pancho, cover Diana.
What is this?
It's a nightmare!
- Dad, you either help, or you leave!
- Help, Dad, help!
Okay...
Jimena, come closer. I need you
to measure the dilation.
- Okay.
- Let's see.
A lot of dilation, a lot of blood...
No, no! Take her away!
With all due respect, sir.
Mariana!
I see nothing, no head, nothing!
I can't see anything...
- Diana! Diana!
- No, no, no!
She fainted!
What do we do?
What do you mean?
Wake her up, she has to push!
- Diana, please wake up, please!
- She needs a surgical vacuum.
- A surgical vacuum!
- What?
A surgical vacuum,
you place it on the baby's head...
Yes, the vacuum will
pull the head out!
Okay, I can- I can make one.
Bring a compressor,
a hose, a flask, cork, a funnel!
Come on, let's get it done!
Come on!
The cork.
Hold it, hold it.
Insert this.
No, no!
What-
No, no, no!
Mariana!
- What happened?
- There's a power outage!
Yes, I'm working on it. Wait.
- Batteries! I need batteries!
- Okay!
From your cars, from the lab!
Bring me batteries!
I'll be right with you!
All is well, sir. It's okay.
- Here are the cables.
- It's okay.
Coming through!
Okay, okay!
Help me make a circuit.
Put those on the chair, Miguel!
The red ones...
Take this end.
We'll close the circuit.
- You have it?
- Let's see... here.
Cross your fingers.
And... one, two, three!
It's back!
Perfect, get on the computer!
Felipe, Skype, again. Skype!
- Wait, wait, wait!
- Turn it on!
- There she is. Mariana!
- Hello!
- I love you, Pancho.
- I love you more.
- Sorry, sir.
- Go on!
- How much suction?
- How much suction?
Not more than .5.
Not more than .5.
.5, we've got it.
Stand back.
- Give it to me!
- Give it to him.
More cable!
Okay, okay, okay.
Dad, please, I need you to push
on Diana's belly like this!
Push on it like this! Like this!
One, two...
Push, Diana,
with all your strength! Push!
Push!
It's coming out!
No way! No way!
Push! Here it comes! I can see it!
I love you, I love you!
You have it?
Watch the head.
It's my grandchild!
Welcome to the world of engineers!
You can be whatever
you want in life!
- Here.
- Dad!
Congratulations, Diana!
Hey!
Where are you going?
I'm not finished with you!
I've kept this since my wife died
and I promised myself I'd give it
to an extraordinary student. Here.
No, Professor, I'm sorry, but...
I'm not your extraordinary student.
That was the last time
anybody saw Pancho.
We never heard from him again.
Then, college was over
and we all graduated.
Well, almost everyone.
Felipe Ochoa Arce.
Felipe finally did it.
The first Ochoa to graduate.
His family couldn't contain their pride,
or the auditorium, his family.
Isidoro Velasco Campillo.
Isidoro Velasco also graduated,
in spite of his gas and his cheating.
The biomedical engineer,
my daughter
Mariana Escalona Muñoz.
Mariana graduated
with honors.
It could have been one of
the happiest days of her life...
Dad!
...but not without Pancho.
Everything comes to an end
and while graduation is the end
of your studies,
but it's also the beginning of life.
They were starting
their lives as engineers,
and me, as a photographer.
There we go!
- That's good luck! It hit you.
- It is?
Cheers.
I met my friends at this school.
- I learned a lot...
- Cheers, Pancho.
...but my greatest lesson
was to follow my heart,
to follow my passions, and to be
what I want to be in life.
And I owe that to Pancho.
We thought he would suddenly make it
with a stupid surprise,
but he never came.
- Well, cheers.
- Cheers.
What I don't understand
is why he left us, Beto.
Why disappear like that,
without saying goodbye?
I don't get it.
I know why.
- The night I snuck into your place...
- I knew it, you rat!
You want me to tell you or not?
While I was copying a file,
I decided to go through your things.
And guess what?
I found he had two almost
identical birth certificates.
One under the name Francisco Kuri,
and the other one under Alfonso.
No way!
I obviously took a picture.
And I skedaddled out of there,
I didn't want you to find me.
No? Okay.
There was only one way
to find out the truth.
Ow!
Good afternoon,
where are you traveling?
To Tlayacapan.
God dammit...
TLACAYAPAN BRIDGE
Excuse me...
- The registrar's office?
- The building with the arches.
Damned miserable floors!
I'm looking for Francisco Kuri.
The best known Kuris around here
were Mr. Francisco and Mr. Ezequiel.
They died in the fire
of the Hacienda San Gabriel.
It was really ugly, even their little
ranch hand was heartbroken.
Their ranch hand?
What was his name?
Hold on... Pancho... no...
Panchito... Ponchito!
- Ponchito Perez, that was his name.
- You don't say.
Mr. Ezequiel and his family
wanted to adopt him.
That's why he stole the identity,
to get into the college!
Stinky Isidoro! Stinky Isidoro!
Remember that day everyone
humiliated me in the auditorium?
You're a moron!
Me, a moron?
You're a fraud, Isidoro.
- A fraud?
- You stinky.
Fraud?
Don't forget this day!
It's called karma!
You'll remember this day too!
Five years from now, we'll see
who is more successful!
A stupid, cow-milking farmer,
or me, Isidoro Velasco Campillo!
Mr. Ezequiel Kuri!
Ring a bell?
It's your dad, isn't it?
Don't play dumb!
Pancho Kuri is dead!
You stole his identity!
And that's fraud. It's illegal.
Your life, buddy?
That's the real fraud.
It's coming!
Shh!
- I love you, Pancho!
- I love you more!
I'm sorry, Professor, but I'm not
that extraordinary student.
He didn't have the guts
to tell you all the truth.
He was a liar, a fraud.
An identity thief. A charlatan.
- Okay, pull over.
- What are you doing, dude?
Stop it! What's the matter?
- I said stop!
- What's the matter?
You're going to kill us!
My car, dude!
- Get out!
- You're a jerk!
- What's wrong?
- Get out!
Why are you angry with me?
Your friend was a fraud!
He wasn't a fraud,
he was our friend!
Your friend? You didn't even
know who he was!
- I'm going to hit him.
- Go ahead, please.
You're going to start?
- You broke my tooth, jerk!
- You want me to break another one?
- Get in the trunk!
- Let's call Mariana!
I'll call Mariana.
- Relax! Now!
- Yes!
Hello, it's Felipe, a friend from school.
Is Mariana there?
Yes, but she's a bit busy today.
- She's getting married.
- What?
Where?
We don't have time to go get Mariana.
- Don't listen to him.
- Okay.
Okay, fine, I give up.
We'll go see Pancho,
but we have to be back by 9:00
for my Teltech meeting.
- Okay?
- Hold on, let me.
- I think I knocked him out.
- Ha!
Picture?
Beto, come!
Excuse me, do you know where
the bride's room is?
- It's that one.
- Okay, thank you.
Photographer...
I'll take care of Mariana
and you take care of Mr. Prada.
- Deal?
- Deal.
- Is it time?
- I don't know.
Hello.
- Felipe?
- Please let me in! Let me in!
- Hello, Mariana.
- Hello.
Three things.
First of all, you look beautiful.
- Thank you.
- Secondly, I'm very offended
that you didn't invite me
to your wedding.
I'm sorry, Emiliano didn't want me to.
I knew it. And thirdly,
we found Pancho.
- What?
- What?
Darling, is everything all right?
All is well, Emiliano!
Okay.
Thank you!
You can't marry him!
He's a chauvinist loudmouth
who only cares about money.
Emiliano has changed a lot, Felipe!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
Really, jerk?
You know what this is worth?
$3,000, you idiot!
That's a lot!
Is that changing a lot?
If you leave, everyone
will remember you, and this day,
but if you get married,
every day you'll remember
you already had the answer
and you took the easy road
out of fear.
Your answer is here.
Mariana, "all is well".
- All is well.
- All is well.
- Yes.
- No!
- Okay.
- Okay, what do we do?
- Is she okay?
- Yes, she's okay.
Come on, Mariana!
- Come, Mariana! I'll catch you!
- Okay.
That's it. Be careful.
Just get a good hold there!
Careful, Mariana!
- Almost, almost!
- Come on! I'll catch you!
- We'll catch you!
- It's my shoulders!
Hey! What are you doing?
- Ouch! Mariana!
- It's okay, it's okay.
- Let's get out of here!
- Where are you going, Mariana?
Come on! Let's go!
Come!
This way, Mariana!
No, no, no, no!
Pedro! Help me, Pedro!
- This is it?
- Let's go!
Help me!
Father-in-law, help me!
- What's the matter?
- Help me!
They found Pancho, Dad.
What? Leave the baby,
get In the car!
Follow me! Quick!
This can't be happening!
Twice in my life! I can't believe it!
Dad!
Please stop hitting me!
- What's Isidoro doing here?
- He knows where Pancho Is.
There's one thing, Mariana,
- we don't know Pancho's status.
- What?
- If he's married or not, for example.
- What?
- He won't be married.
- What if he is?
Don't worry, we'll go back
to your wedding and that's it.
- You morons!
- Ow!
He won't be married, I promise!
He won't be married.
- Hurry!
- I'm going as fast as I can!
Hurry, Dad, we can't lose them!
You're so stupid!
You were ready to get married,
but you'd rather live in poverty,
with Pancho, milking cows.
Shut up or I'll bury this ring
In your balls!
Go faster!
- Oof!
- Good Lord!
- Looks like it's here.
- Here?
- We're here?
- Looks like.
Here are your keys!
It's coming, it's coming
The sowing, the sowing
It's coming, it's coming
The sowing, the sowing.
All right, all right!
Let's talk about the seeds, okay?
All right, okay...
The seeds face the sun.
All right, now...
The magnets.
Now, tum the cell phones on.
- They work?
- They work!
Very good, kids.
- Very good. Wi-Fi...
- Who are they?
- What are you doing here?
- We're looking for Pancho.
I knew this day would come!
- You mean Poncho.
- No, Pancho.
No, Poncho. Alfonso Perez.
I knew it, he'll love it!
Come, come with me. Wow!
But...
Walt for me. Poncho has bought
all your photography books, Beto.
We took the children to visit
the bridge you built, Felipe.
- Where is he?
- This way! This way!
- But where?
- You came from a party?
-Yes.
- He must be with the robotics guys.
There he is, with the robotics kids.
There it is. There it is.
Let's see it.
Great, kids!
Go on.
Kids, you're all geniuses!
Pancho?
Oh!
All this time...
All this time...
You never said goodbye.
Are these your kids?
Mm-mm.
Are you married?
- No, you?
- Almost.
I ran away.
Do you want me to go back?
You mean you only disappeared
because of a name?
- You know how long we looked for you?
- No!
- You don't?
- A lot! A lot!
- A long time!
- Come here!
Idiots!
Look!
- Isidoro?
- From engineer to nanny.
Like a pedophile Peter Pan,
surrounded by children in a ranch.
Five years, like I told you.
With a huge bank account
and an appointment at 9:00
with the president of Teltech
for a merger.
Huh?
It means to get together,
so your Totonacan friend can understand.
Wait a second.
Oh, It's Teltech.
Engineer Velasco.
- Yes.
- How are you?
Everything's ready for our dinner.
Just a question, out of protocol.
Of course, of course.
How does it feel to have
your scrotum electrocuted?
Here is the president of Teltech.
Come now, Isidoro, all is well.
I've waited for this moment
for a long time.
Not content with ruining one,
you ruined the weddings
of my two daughters,
but I don't hold a grudge.
I have learned that our personal
fears must stay in the past.
- Oh!
- Oops!
I've been wanting to thank you
for a long time.
Thank you.
Sir,
I apologize in advance.
Bravo!
- Whistling and clapping, please.
- You hush! No one stop me! No one!
In addition to being
the president of Teltech,
Pancho invested his money
in his own hometown,
in children curious to learn,
and his inventions were changing
the whole region.
The meaning? Anyone?
I want you to go back
30 seconds in your lives.
How did you feel? Nervous?
Excited?
Curious?
But what do those words mean?
It's the name
of an extraordinary student,
who made me learn that not only
do I come here to teach,
but also to learn from all of you.
Let's welcome our recent graduate,
the engineer Pancho-
Poncho Perez.
- Thank you.
- Mr. Engineer.
Thank you, Professor.
Three things.
One, follow your passion.
Two, question your teachers.
- And three...
- Well...
And three,
be happy.
Live for today.
Bravo!
THE REAL ROBOTIX CHILDREN...
Demian and Esteban are
students at ROBOTIX,
created by Roberto Saint Martin,
where robotics experts
help children develop these abilities.
The model is taught throughout Mexico
and has expanded
to Latin America and the US.
In 2014, the "Robotix children”
won 1st and 2nd place In NASA's
International Air and Space Program.
In 2016 they were also acknowledged
at the World Robot Olympiad, India.
And, in Mexico, there are many others
who have dared to be an "Idiot"...
Yuvia Lopez, Valeria Sanchez,
Andrea Garcia and Monica Lopez
created PROTRASH, where they
help 37 million Mexicans
who live in overpopulated urban areas.
Innovating in the struggle
against poverty,
they exchange trash for incentives:
1 kg of trash for 1 kg of food.
Fernando Mier-Hicks, a 27-year-old
Mexican engineer,
designed a technology that simulates
the conditions in space
to test nanosatellites.
A constellation of these devices
could take the Internet
to the whole world.
Approximately 50% of the crops
for human consumption
go to waste every year.
Enrique Gonzalez and Flavio Siller
created GENIUS FOODS,
turning this waste into natural nutrients
that improve the quality
of processed food.
Fernando Ortiz Monasterio is a Mexican
architect, founder of VERDEVERTICAL,
a project that intends to improve
the environment,
the quality of life
and the urban landscape.
He covers concrete surfaces with plants
in one of the most populated cities
in the world: Mexico City.
If you follow your destiny
And don't leave the path
If you have a motive
And you don't give up
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
If you trust in your talent
This is your best moment
Make your heart pay attention
You're free as the wind
You'll make it on your own
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well.
Thank you, India, for inspiring
us with this story.
NAMASTE!
please be advised, all electronics...
- Hello?
- ...and cell phones must be turned off.
Sir?
Sir, I need you to
turn off your phone.
- Give me a second. It's important.
- I need you to turn it off now.
Yes?
What?
Everything okay?
Still?
I have to get off!
- Stop the plane, please! I must get off!
- Sir, I need you to sit down!
Sir! Sir! Sir!
Please, there's an emergency...
Let us through!
Let us through! Excuse us!
Where am I? Where am I?
I'm allve!
I feel fine!
- Alert! We have a situation!
- Sorry!
Hey! Hey!
My taxi!
- Hello?
- What's up? What are you doing?
- Here, working.
- They found Pancho.
What?
See you later!
- Your breakfast!
- Your pants!
- See you!
- Pull your pants up!
Beto? Beto?
- And this taxi?
- I stole It.
- What do you mean, you stole it?
- At the airport, with a family inside.
- Yeah! Where's Pancho?
- Pancho? I don't know.
- But you told me you found him!
- I'm not the one who found him!
Who found him, then?
Stinky Isidoro.
- Stinky Isidoro found Pancho?
- Yup, so prepare your nose.
Welcome. Come in.
Thank you.
- Is it here?
- Yes.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah. He sent me this address.
It looks like he's doing well.
Wow!
Excuse me. Thank you.
Look!
Stinky McToilet!
It's been a while since I smelled you.
Isidoro Velasco Campilllo, losers,
founder of Ibeca,
about to fuse with Teltech,
the largest technology company
in Latin America.
That's all.
You don't know what it is, right?
You like it?
$1.3 miliion!
And with the exchange rate...
Okay, and where is Pancho?
You've got such bad memory.
What's today? November 12.
Five years ago today,
I challenged Pancho
to see who would be more
successful with the years
And look!
Look around you.
Diplomas, awards, magazines.
Where am I?
Way up high, daddy-o!
Right, Mari?
She doesn't understand.
So where is Pancho?
You don't know?
Do you know where he is or not?
Let's go.
- Where is Pancho? Tell us!
- At a ranch, where else?
What did you expect?
- A ranch?
- Yes.
And we'll have to drive a lot to
find him, bring him out in the open.
Why all the mystery?
You'll see. There's much you
don't know about him. Lots.
What could be better than seeing
him again, all together?
How much did you know
about your friend?
You may wonder who Pancho is,
who can interrupt someone in the
bathroom, or got me off a plane.
Before you meet him, let me
tell you some of his qualities.
He's a good friend, stubborn as a mule,
brilliant, and from a good family.
This is our good Pancho.
He had it all to make it
and from one day to the next,
he disappeared.
Some say he went to another
country with his family,
others that he got married,
or was forced to marry,
and yet others claim he got an operation
and now calls himself Miroslava.
No one has heard from him to this day.
His disappearance affected everyone,
and especially her.
- She is Mariana.
- Come on! It's really late!
This is Felipe, the pride of Milpa Alta,
nopal district, and his whole family.
Felipe! Felipe! Felipe!
He's the first to go to college
in his family.
And this is me.
My dad decided I'd be an engineer
since the day I was born.
- It smells like the future.
- It doesn't smell like anything.
If you graduate with good grades,
you'll have the world in your hands, son.
3 IDIOTS
And as Felipe's uncle used to say:
"Friendship always starts
either with a good party,
or when the party’s over."
Catch it! Catch it!
Get it! Get it! Get it!
- I'm not doing anything to you!
- What's this?
Yuck! You really think this
brings you luck?
Give it back to him!
Give it back to him!
- He wants to cry!
- He won't.
He wants to cry!
- Look what I found!
- Hey, give me my phone!
Don't take his phone!
Hey, don't get violent!
Okay, enough! Give him back his stuff!
- Or what?
- Or what?
What's wrong with him?
My phone!
Your keys! Let's go, let's go!
What are you doing?
After them, come on!
Come on, shorty, move!
- Run, run!
- It's closed!
- Here! This way!
- Run, run!
- Go! Go!
- No! My backpack! My backpack!
Tell them something!
Come on!
- Here, this is yours.
- Thanks!
My camera's inside my bag!
- All is well, all is well.
- What do you mean: all is well?
- It's all right.
- Nothing's all right!
- Come out of there or I'll...
- What?
- What?
- I'll piss on your backpack!
- Good!
- I'll poop on it!
- No. Better.
- Okay, I'll piss on your bag!
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
- You have ten...
- Ten.
You'll see.
...eight...
- What's this?
- We tie it up here.
Hold on. When I tell you...
you turn it on.
- Get back!
- ...two...
- Hold this.
- Okay.
- Are you ready?
- Here come the Niagara Falls!
Turn it on.
- Turn it off, turn it off!
- What happened?
Let's get out of here! Come on.
Oh, Lord!
- Oh, no!
- No way!
I hope my camera didn't get wet.
After that, Isidoro never ate
another hardboiled egg.
He made the whole corridor
smell like burnt chicken.
Straight ahead.
- There's the infirmary!
- Wait, wait!
With her!
The one with the lab coat!
- Let's go with her.
- Where's the infirmary?
To the right.
- What happened?
- Up we go!
What's wrong?
- He got electrocuted.
- Electrocuted?
- Yes.
- With what?
It's a long story.
- Hello, Mariana.
- Hello, Beto.
Being the children
of prominent engineers,
Mariana and I had known
each other for a long time.
You did what to his what?
Maybe you could...
check him out.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm!
His scrotum is scorched.
We thought maybe you'd have
more experience in that area.
- Oh, my God.
- Since you're a doctor and all.
Biomedical engineering
and medicine student.
All new students, please gather
at the auditorium
for the Chancellor's welcome.
I think we have to go.
- Yes.
- Let's go.
I haven't washed my hands.
I'm not scorched.
That's bad luck, I pass.
Ah.
Tsk.
No way, they're your friends.
- See you.
- What?
- Bye! Thanks!
- So mean!
- Good morning!
- Good morning.
I'm very happy to see
each and every one of you
on your first day of school.
And for the official welcome...
We want to introduce you
to our beloved professor,
- Mr. Escalona.
- Hi.
Thank you, Doctor, Ma'am.
Gentlemen, good morning.
What's the definition of perfection?
Anyone?
The state or quality of being
devoid of defects, sir.
That's correct.
A bridge is a symbol of perfection.
Each step in its construction
must be perfect.
- Is that clear?
- Yes!
Yes, sir, Mr. sir, right, sir.
Unlike the lies
your parents have told you,
not all of you are geniuses.
Look to your right.
Look to your left.
This is the competition
you will have out there.
For example, this bridge...
is perfect.
Perfection is what we
demand from you.
Perfection is what you
must demand from yourselves.
- Excuse me, Mr...
- Escalona.
Escalona.
To build that bridge, didn't the engineers
have to make several mistakes
before finding what is perfect?
I took this piece
from a very beautiful bridge.
Can you tell me how I got
this piece from a bridge
where each piece,
each beam, each stone
Is supposed to be
perfect and unmovable? No!
You don't know.
This is what happens
when you break the rules.
Do you know how many lives
depend on you?
Don't make mistakes.
Unless you want to belong
to the losers' club,
- like Mr...
- Pancho Kuri.
And no, sir, I always want to improve.
I just believe we can learn
from our mistakes.
Oh, my, the loser's theory.
It's not my theory,
but Thomas Alva Edison's,
the inventor of electricity.
Whoo!
Not everyone clapped.
- Well, almost.
- Almost.
- Almost everyone.
- Pretty much everyone.
Whoo!
The semester was just starting
and we noticed Pancho was taking
all the classes he could,
which, curiously enough, happened to be
the same classes Mariana took.
Biochemical engineering.
Who enrolls in that, for God's sake?
Professor, it's almost finished.
I tested it this morning
with a couple of seeds.
- It's going to work! Well...
- But does it work now?
- Let me talk to your father.
- What for?
Let me talk to him.
Hello? Dad, I'm with
Professor Escalona...
Mr. Valtierra! Good morning.
I have news.
Your son will not be graduating
because he was late
in delivering his invention,
so don't worry about getting tickets
to the graduation.
Have a nice day. Bye.
No! But... Professor!
One week, please!
No!
I was late because my mother
had to be hospitalized.
My wife died on a Sunday afternoon,
and on Monday I was back here teaching.
Rules are rules.
No functioning invention,
no diploma.
Hey!
What do you have there?
Let's see. Come on!
Oh, ho, ho...
- What is it?
- Wi-Fi seeds.
- What?
- When there's an emergency,
you plant them, water them,
and a router comes out.
- What do you need?
- I need to generate a magnetic field.
- I already have a catalyst. Yeah.
- The water!
You have to contain
the generated energy?
Direct it.
- It's a great invention!
- It sure is.
- He flunked him?
- Big time.
Who says "big time" anymore?
Okay, who touched my charms?
Mm-hmm!
Hold on!
- You took these?
- Yes.
- They're pretty good.
- My dad either hates them
or they piss him off.
No, no, they're pretty good.
- Amazing.
- For real?
-Yes.
- Sorry to interrupt, but...
these wi-fi seeds don't
sound very real to me.
And did Skype, WhatsApp, drones
sound real?
Landing on the moon or Mars?
I don't think either of us can help him.
We have our own project to work on.
- Right, Beto?
- Yes!
Besides, Escalona's out to get you.
- You better not mess with him.
- Yeah.
You are blaming me because
Valtierra's no longer here?
- No.
- Sit properly, please!
I'm not blaming anyone,
but what's the use of a modern school
If you have a rigid
and old-fashioned system?
With my system, my class
is still number one.
But according to what scale,
Professor?
The world is no longer
the one you studied in.
We students are getting increasingly
more creative and proactive,
but we have to face professors,
with all due respect, like you.
Your teaching doesn't change.
There's no talk about innovation,
only about grading, winning, overcoming.
There's nothing about
imagining, creating...
You are going to teach me how to teach?
Come on, let's go.
- But...
- Let's see.
- We'll see...
- Careful with the stairs, Professor!
- You'll hurt your knees!
- You should've thought of that before!
You're in great shape,
I'm surprised.
Ms. Molina, please take a seat.
This self-proclaimed teacher
says he's better than our staff,
so go ahead, Mr. Kuri, teach.
Come on, we don't have all day!
- Forgive me, Ma'am.
- Okay.
These two words should
have an effect on you.
And this effect has the power
to help millions.
Even to save lives.
Whoever tells me their meaning,
passes the class.
- Oh, no, you can't...
- It's all right, let him.
You can use your books,
notes, Google...
but you have only 30 seconds, and...
We're on the clock!
Give me your book.
Mr. Velasco...
The definition must be here...
Come on, look for it!
Lend me your notebook.
What's that?
Time!
Mr. Escalona, time Is up.
No one has the answer, right?
Go back 30 seconds in time,
to the moment I asked the question.
How did you feel? Mm?
Surprised? Nervous?
Curious about learning something new?
Because robots are programmed
to repeat concepts,
patterns, to follow rules,
but there is a difference
between being a robot
and being the robot designer:
curiosity, ingenuity.
This is not a philosophy class.
Can you give us the definition
of those words?
These words don't exist, sir.
They're the names of my friends:
Beto and Felipe.
And this is how you plan to teach
engineering?
No, sir, I could never.
I'm just teaching you how to teach.
And I know that you'll learn,
because I never abandon
my slower students.
- Silence.
- He called him a fool!
Silence!
You better invent
as well as you talk, Mr. Kuri.
Because without an invention
that actually works,
you won't graduate.
And I'm the one
who signs the diplomas.
Time went by and
we became inseparable.
We were the three best friends.
Or, as Escalona called us,
the three idiots.
Stop studying, man, come on.
We all lived in the house
my aunt rented to me
and were known around campus
for having the best barbecues.
And Pancho, who claimed
he knew everything,
still didn't dare speak to Mariana.
Let's go.
Okay, how do we make
a nanopill?
We'll need the school's AFM
plus someone who knows more
about human biology than us.
That's true.
It's from Beto.
Check it out!
We're going to a wedding tonight.
- Hey, so...
- But how will we get in?
I was going to say,
we don't have invitations.
Great! Beto's aunt just saved us.
- What?
- To the storeroom!
Good evening.
- Hello, good evening.
- Hello. Your invitations?
We don't have them, but we're here
for the aerial gymnastics show.
And juggling.
- One second.
- Sure.
Juan, the aerial gymnastics
guys are here.
What's up, dude?
Where did you find those costumes?
- Be right back.
- Those sure are tight, yo!
These are very nice.
- Let's take a selfie.
- Yes, yes.
- There we are.
- Ready?
- It's really nice!
- Pedro, come here a sec, please.
- See you later.
- Yes.
- Seriously?
- What?
Where's the Cartier watch I gave you?
- Well, I...
- You didn't like it?
Er, I...
You didn't like it, because if you had
you'd be wearing it!
No, the thing is...
The thing is what?
- Are you serious?
- Smile for the magazine.
Thank you.
Hello? Oh, hi Mom!
No, I just didn't have-
What a catch!
What are you doing here?
I'm here to bring you these.
And for the show.
They're identical to the ones
on the tables, of course.
You can't hide good taste.
May I have your glass for a second?
Why?
I don't want you to break it on my head
after I give you a piece of advice.
Your boyfriend is not good.
He treats you like an object,
he only cares about money
and he'll make you miserable.
Did I ask for your opinion?
I bet you a date to the movies
that in under a minute he'll tell you
the price of his shoes.
Deal.
Come on, Mom, it has to be white,
don't be ordinary.
Tell me, idiot!
What's your problem, man?
Careful with my shoes!
They're $600!
$600! Ever earned that?
No, right?
Goddammit!
So, what are you doing at this party
with that arrogant boyfriend?
It's my sister's wedding.
- So you're here with your family?
- Yes, I am.
In fact, that tall man over there
is my dad.
Please tell me you
take after your mom.
- That's what they say.
- I'd love to meet her.
- Where is she?
- In the graveyard.
- At this hour?
- She's dead.
I'm sorry.
What about that?
Come check it out,
I was just looking at it.
What do you think?
I just found her.
She's gorgeous! I mean, she's perfect,
anatomically speaking.
- Everything's in place.
- In place!
Hug her, like she was
your ice girlfriend.
Okay!
- Cool, dude!
- Yeah.
- It's awesome.
- It is.
- No.
- Yes, dude.
- No, no way.
- Yes, do it!
They won't see you. Do it!
You haven't told me what you're
doing here dressed as Jiminy Cricket?
Some high class friends invited me.
No one says "high class friends".
- They don't?
- No.
Who was it? Beto?
Do it!
Cool!
Look at this, dude!
This is-
What?
It's stuck?
You sneak into my sister's wedding,
dressed like in Swan Lake...
Hold on!
...and you criticize my sister's wedding,
my family, and my dad.
Hold on, one...
What else?
Who do you think you are?
- ...two...
- Bond.
James Bond.
Jesus!
Trust me, man!
Remove yourself!
Oh, shit!
- Shit!
- Put it out!
They ruined my wedding, Dad!
Oh, shit!
Let's go, let's go!
Security!
That was the first time Pancho
approached Mariana.
- Grab those three idiots!
- Run!
And as far as I remember,
it was terrible!
As you can see,
it's a beautiful structure.
You must emulate it.
Good morning, Ms. Molina.
Good morning, Professor Escalona.
Pop quiz. Hand it out.
- What?
- Silence!
But nobody told us!
Silence! It's quite easy.
No buts!
You can thank these three idiots.
As you know, if you don't pass the test,
you have to repeat the semester.
Come on, man!
What did you eat?
- What's that, Isidoro?
- What? It wasn't me!
Silence!
- Who's rotting?
- Professor, please!
Leave the classroom!
Cowards!
Finish the test!
We're sorry about what happened
at the wedding, Professor.
You're all expelled.
- What?
- How?
Only the three of them!
You are all expelled.
You heard me!
Let's see what other weddings you ruin.
I only have one daughter left.
I'm sorry, Professor,
but you can't expel us.
It was a private event
outside the campus.
So what?
Rules are rules.
The board wouldn't agree.
- Damn you all.
- Not that, either.
Go finish your test.
Sir,
if you'll excuse me,
Pancho is a terrible student.
I can keep an eye on him for you.
You'll be the first to know
the next stupid thing he does.
- One last thing, Mr. Isidoro Velasco.
- Yes?
The next time you need to pass gas,
don't do it indoors.
Look for an open space.
Yes.
I'll keep you posted.
- Stop here!
- Here! Stop now!
Okay, I'm stopping.
- It's horrible!
- No, no, no!
Open up!
You should at least warn us!
It smells like rotten fish!
It wasn't me.
You're responsible for global warming,
you stinker!
What? Global warming?
After my appointment
with Teltech's CEO.
I'll have enough funds
to solve that problem.
That and the extinction of polar bears.
And helping the penguins.
You know how many penguins
up in that mountain need your help?
You know how many?
What the hell-
Who- What?
He has an appointment with
the president of Teltech.
The greatest company, I told-
You didn't read Expansion?
Go ahead, take a gander.
Culture.
- Here's your magazine, okay?
- What?
Jealous? Look at me.
Success! Pancho's not even
featured in the horoscopes.
Isidoro was right,
and I don't get it.
I was sure Pancho would be the one
of magazine covers.
Halfway through our studies,
he had shown all of us his genius
and his hunger for success.
Can someone tell me how this is
related to AFM,
that is, atomic microscopy.
- Pancho?
- Yes.
Nanotechnology works with atoms,
and atoms are energy.
The cool thing about the little pill
is that it has nanomagnetic particles
that merge with
cancer cells in the blood.
This will help us
detect cancer way sooner,
and with more precision
than any other technology.
We only have to do some tests.
- That's all?
- That's all.
But we have a digestive problem.
How do we stop gastric acid
from destroying the transmitter?
How's your robot going?
Quite well! Want to see it?
- It's right over here.
- Sure!
- Can I take a picture?
- As many as you want.
You mind if I take a picture?
Okay, a bit more to the right
and grab the apple.
That's it.
It's absolutely incredible.
What's the helmet for?
The helmet is so you can
move it with your thoughts.
- I don't get it.
- Thanks!
He means the brain's electric impulses,
whenever you think.
Imagine just thinking about taking
the picture and then it takes it.
- That's the idea.
- Cool!
Oh, geez.
- Why's the Finder-
- What is this? Copy?
And that's
how another semester ended.
Here we are!
We're top in our class!
First, second and third place!
I knew we'd worked hard!
Let me take a picture.
Yeah. A selfie.
You were not first and second,
you were last and next to last.
What's the big difference
between last and first?
We were 200 students.
- I barely made it, I'm the last.
- And I'm next to last.
Here I am, 6.2.
Why is he so mad?
Because he came in second.
Imagine that.
- Who's in first?
- Pancho.
He can do that, I can't!
My family's on my case,
they'd never forgive me.
Not my mom, nor my dad,
my uncles, my cousins,
my siblings, my nephews,
no one would forgive me!
Felipe's family was so happy about
their son finishing the semester
that we threw a celebratory barbecue.
Come in! Welcome!
And he got so mad!
But I went for it.
- Your cousin is really cool!
- What cousin?
That guy over there.
- What are you playing?
- No, no, no, that's a she.
That's Chela, she's not a guy.
- You thought so too, didn't you?
- I'm not talking!
Hey! Pitch in, pitch in!
Come on!
Come on, don't play dumb!
Over here!
What's it for, Grandma?
We've been doing this
since my Felipe was a kid.
We all pitch in to pay
for his tuition, right, son?
- That's right, Grandma! Thanks.
- That's cool.
- You're welcome.
- I'm not opening!
- No!
- I'm not opening the door!
- Me neither.
- Who else is coming?
-Who is it?
- Hi, it's Mariana.
Hi! How are you?
I saw on Facebook you're
having a barbecue?
Yes, you want to come in?
- May I?
- Of course!
- You brought dessert! Delicious.
- Thank you.
Make yourself at home.
Wow, so much famiiy!
That's great!
...and the ant said to the elephant:
"I've got him, I've got him!"
The joke about the ant,
that's a funny one!
- You know what's funny too?
- What?
That's funny!
It's funny having to console your sister
because a jerk
like you ruined her wedding!
- Hey!
- No, hold on, dude!
Where I come from,
you don't interrupt women.
Mariana, she's not a dude,
she's a girl and she's my cousin.
This is my family,
not Pancho's family.
Why didn't anybody stop me?
Because I don't interrupt women.
Bring her some water!
Are you okay?
- Take a sip!
- No, take it away!
- Mariana!
- Mariana knows about this.
- An ambulance!
- There's no time for an ambulance!
Let's move her together!
Let's take her to the truck!
- Be careful!
- Call an ambulance!
- Watch out! Watch out!
- This way.
- Come through!
- Come on, cousin!
- To the truck!
- To the truck! In the back!
Please, I need an ambulance.
Quickly, please! Someone is choking!
What do you mean
you don't have an ambulance?
Why isn't the truck starting?
We won't make it! The ambulance
won't make it on time!
Yes, we will! Felipe!
Some rope! Bring her here!
The keys!
- Hold on! Hold on!
- All is well.
- How are you?
- She just fainted!
No, no, no, wake her up!
We're going to fall!
Take that exit!
- Which one?
- That one!
- You missed the exit again!
- Which one? I didn't see it!
- Can you please tell me in advance?
- Can you stop arguing?
- Mariana?
- What?
This is the beginning
of a beautiful friendship.
EMERGENCY
Please!
Here.
Mom! Mom!
It's "the mummy".
- Your family's great!
- Thank you.
- And yours?
- What?
Your family.
Where are they?
- Traveling, as always.
- Ah.
Look!
Well, we had to perform
a tracheotomy.
Fortunately you brought her in time.
It saved her life.
Now she's in a good mood,
she's cracking jokes with the nurse,
one about an elephant, an ant..
"Strangle him, strangle him!"
Thanks.
You too, Mariana. Thank you.
The important thing Is
that he's all right.
- She!
- She! Yes, she!
You're very good
at insulting people.
Sony, I feel horrible.
A movie would make up for it,
and you owe me.
I can't.
Mr. Moneybags would scold you?
- No one says "moneybags." No.
- They don't?
We're taking a break.
He's been my boyfriend all my life.
Well, at least you can wear
your mother's watch.
- I missed her that night.
- I don't doubt it.
Okay, well, I have to go.
- Bye.
- Bye.
How did you know
It was my mom's?
I'm good at paying attention
to what I like.
Who are you, Pancho Kuri?
-Who am I?
- Yes, who are you?
Who was the first
man on the moon?
Neil Armstrong.
True.
Who was the second?
Buzz Aldrin.
Anybody?
No one?
Exactly.
No one remembers
who came in second.

No, wait!

So, guys, do you think it'll work?
It has to, because I'm this close to
being kicked out of school.
I know all the answers, but as soon as
I'm sitting in front of the test,
I don't know what happens.
If you keep on leaving it up to luck,
it's going to get worse.
- How many lucky charms do you have?
- Thirteen.
The Atlante bottle opener also counts.
One for fear, for the test,
for money, work, your family,
who are amazing.
How can you live here and now
if you fear what's coming so much?
It's easy for him to talk because
he has his life figured out. I don't.
- I have to work twice as hard as you.
- We don't all have your brain.
It's not about the brain.
It's about passion.
I do well at school because
I'm passionate about learning.
I'm passionate about inventing.
It's about doing it right,
Mexican style.
What about you, dude?
Give me your backpack.
- What?
- What is it?
No, don't mess with my camera!
Pancho, be careful, dude!
Ah, the best nature photographer
ever is teaching a course in Portugal,
and he won't send the letter.
- The problem's my dad.
- No way!
- It's not your dad!
- The problem is you.
You're not an engineer,
you're a photographer,
and a good one.
Imagine Chicharito's dad saying:
"You're going to be a singer,"
or Juan Gabriel's mom telling him:
"You, son, will be a soccer player."
We're not all good or bad at everything,
we're born with a specific talent.
You want to do well?
Follow your passion.
You don't take success, money
or fame to the grave,
but you do take the pleasure of
fulfilling your passion.
- Cheers to that.
- Cheers.
Don't play, though.
You're scared too.
Scared of what?
Hey...
Mariana, sucker.
You're scared of Mariana!
- He's scared of Mariana.
- That's a different subject!
No, It's not!
Tell Mariana you're crazy about her.
Tell Mariana you think about her
all the time.
Tell her you want her to be
the mother of your little Panchos.
- Tell her!
- And I'm the corny one!
If you tell Mariana
you're crazy for her,
I'll tell my dad I want
to be a photographer.
- Beto, do you mean it?
- I mean it.
If Beto does that,
I'll throw away all of my lucky charms.
Huh?
- He's quiet now.
- Silence.
Total silence, he's at a loss for words.
Okay.
- The cat got his tongue!
- No, no, no.
You'll see I'm not scared of her.
Come on, let's go.
- Wait, where are you going?
- Where else?
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
- Let's follow him.
- Let's go.
Who's going to pay?
Mariana! Mariana!
Psst! Psst! Mariana!
Hello.
- What are you doing here?
- Oh, you know, just looking at the stars.
- Are you crazy?
- Yes, a little bit.
Do you want to go out with me?
- What?
- Do you want to go out with me?
- You're an idiot.
- Do you want to go out with an idiot?
- And if l don't?
- Then I'll die trying!
No, no, no, come up!
- Come up!
- Did you say yes?
- Okay, yes.
- Wow, you sure took your time.
Whoa!
Pancho! No way!
Pancho!
I need mouth to mouth.
Are you all right?
You really scared me!
- It was good.
- Yes, it was good, okay.
- Okay, go home.
- Come with me.
- No, go.
- Come with me.
No! No way!
Are you all right?
- Yeah, I didn't get hurt, I'm fine.
- You sure?
Okay.
- It looked more dramatic than it was.
- It looked very dramatic.
If my dad knew I was here,
at this hour, in my pajamas, with you?
- He'd kill me.
- He would. Your father hates me.
You know, you and my dad have
more in common than you think?
- Yeah, right.
- Seriously.
- No way.
- Yes!
You're both obsessive,
you strive for excellence...
Yes, but he's military style.
I understand about the bridge,
about mistakes and all that.
- Look.
- No, you don't get the bridge thing.
I don't? Why not?
Um... we were going on vacation
to Acapulco
and my mom was driving.
She was on the phone with my dad.
And then...
A tension cable became loose,
and then another...
and then another one.
My dad heard everything because
they were on the phone.
I'm so sorry.
He became obsessed
with all his students being perfect.
Of course...
- Those metallic pieces are...
- From the bridge, yes.
Oh, God.
- I'm sorry, I didn't know.
- I'm getting too intense now.
But that's what it was all about,
so we could know each other better.
- And what's up with you?
- About what?
Yes, what's up with your family?
What's your dad like?
My family, my dad.
Let's see...
My dad is...
My dad is always traveling.
That's how it is.
What makes you happy?
Right now?
Well, yeah.
I don't know, right now this...
No, no, no, you want to get me wet, right?
Let's go together!
- Yes!
- No way! Your dad!
What?
You fool...
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Get a room!
Stop singing.
- Here?
- Yes, it's here.
- Come on.
- I'll stop here.
- Let's go!
- Super!
- I forgot my keys!
- What?
I didn't bring my keys!
- We'll jump.
- Let's jump.
Stand on me!
- I'm sorry.
- Yes, yes, yes.
- I can't!
- You're so heavy!
- Ready?
- Yes!
Be quiet!
Come this way!
That's my dad's room!
I can't believe this!
Look!
- Another fountain!
- No!
Why don't you jump in
and kiss again?
If you go...
- Now, now.
- This way.
Climb up and you pull her up.
I'll push.
- You want me to climb?
- Yes!
- No.
- Here.
One, two and...
Look at his hand!
That's cheating!
- Let's do this more often.
- Don't speak so loudly.
It got tangled!
Okay, you did it.
Give me your hand,
you can do it, trust me.
I'm scared!
- Don't be scared.
- You did it!
What a nice view!
Mariana, is that you?
Marianuchis!
- Come on!
- Go!
- Come down!
- Careful, Beto!
- You got me?
- Yes! Felipe!
I'm coming, my rabbit's foot
fell!
Mariana, is that you?
Felipe! Come down, dude!
We'll see you outside.
I don't know, Dad,
it was a possum or something!
- A possum?
- I mean...
- Ochoa?
- Professor Escalona.
Hey! You ruined my car!
Come here!
- What's this?
- Diana?
She-
She wouldn't stop throwing up,
I had in take her to the hospital.
- Are you all right?
- Yes.
I'm pregnant.
- What?
- Yes!
You're going to be a grandpa, Dad!
How exciting!
Check it out.
- Silence.
- I caught them all on Omega Ruby.
I have gathered all the engineers
to let you know that the Chancellor is
arriving two weeks ahead of schedule.
What do you mean, two weeks?
So the presentation of your inventions
will be two weeks earlier.
The question here Is:
Who has an invention ready
to show the Chancellor right now?
Me. I have one and I'm ready
to show it at any time.
Yeah, sure.
Very well, Mr. Velasco.
What is it?
Well, it's a pill-sized device
that works with an app.
- Hey, that's our invention!
- He stole it!
I've been working on it for months.
Okay, let's see.
Mr. Kuri, do you have a way
to prove it's yours?
Yes, yes, yes.
We haven't patented it yet,
but this guy's always spying on us.
Do you have proof?
No, professor.
Mr. Velasco, what do you have?
A prototype?
Because the Chancellor wants to see
that your invention really works.
I can make it work,
but not in two weeks.
I can have it ready.
Of course not! You don't know what
you're doing! It's not ready yet.
Of course I know what I'm doing,
it's my idea.
Now I'll get him!
Enough! That is enough!
Whoever the impostor is,
I'll get to the bottom of this.
You can go back to your classes.
Mr. Ochoa, I'll see you in my office.
- In your office?
- We have to talk about this.
- Write.
- Yes, sir.
- I want to apologize for last night...
- Write.
- Yes.
- "Dear Mr. Ochoa,
I regret to inform you
that your son, Felipe Ochoa,
has been expelled from school."
- Write!
- You can't do this to me.
My whole family
works hard to see me graduate.
I have your grades, Mr. Ochoa.
You've failed many tests.
Sir, I beg you.
Give me another chance.
Yes.
Delete you name...
Write Francisco Kuri's,
and the two of us will write together
the letter that expels your friend.
If someone deserves
to graduate, it's Pancho, not me.
I see.
Okay.
That's all.
You're the first Ochoa
to go to college.
And what a college, son!
You're going to make it far!
I'll let your family know, man!
All is well!
How is he?
The blunt force trauma and brain swelling
have resulted in a coma.
Will he be all right?
Well, that depends on him.
He can hear us.
Let's tell him things that'll wake him up.
Miss, do you sell
timeshares in this place?
We'll need some
for the Ochoa family.
Hi, see what we brought.
Don't make us use it on you!
Come on, wake up!
Come on!
Felipe!
Felipe's coma
got all of us thinking.
It gave me the courage to ask the
photographer I most admired for a job.
Hello, Ernesto, I'm very interested...
You can't expel students
at the drop of a hat.
Those kids arrive at this school
full of hope.
Just because you lost yours,
doesn't mean you have
to take it away from them!
Our philosophy is excellence,
and compassion, as well.
And If you don't agree,
you can resign.
Escalona cancelled it,
you're not expelled!
Here it is, cancelled!
So there's no excuse, move
that skinny behind and come back.
Felipe, wake up!
Wake up, Felipe, wake up!
Blow out the candles!
Blow! Very good!
Congratulations!
Go, Felipe! Go, Felipe!
Felipe, wake up!
Atlante made it to first division!
Atlante won?
Yes, 3-2 at the last minute,
it was amazing,
Herrera takes it, everyone attacks,
he runs to the other side,
gives a great kick and what a pass,
Doctor! It was perfect!
Uscanga has it, eludes one,
eludes another,
It's like a Sweet Sixteen ball!
He leaves the defense behind,
only the goalkeeper is left,
he dances with him, what a play!
- He kicks it and...
- Goal!
Goal!
- He woke up!
- He woke up!
You're such a liar.
Shh! What?
You're such a liar.
Uscanga hasn't scored
a goal in two seasons.
Thank you.
I'll take your picture.
Look this way!
And the day of the job
interviews arrived.
Turn!
It's a dangerous turn!
You promised you'd get rid
of your charms.
This white Ganesh is for good vibes.
This is for good luck.
This is for abundance, here.
The main lady. Here.
This is for protection.
This is my favorite, my Buddha.
Ta-da!
It arrived at home.
What does it say?
"Humberto Cervantes Del Rio."
Here. Open it.
Come on, open it!
Open it!
I'd like you to be my assistant
while I'm In Portugal...
Holy crap!
He liked my pictures
and wants me to go to Portugal with him
as his assistant!
You see?
- Good.
- What am I going to tell my dad?
Remember our promise?
Well, now you have to go back home.
All is well.
Good luck.
Congratulations!
Go on, guys.
- Come on.
- Are you ready?
Turn here.
- All is well.
- Thanks!
While Felipe faced the most important
challenge of his career,
I was facing the most important
challenge of my I life:
Telling my dad the truth
and opening my heart to him.
What happened to you?
I...
I had been expelled.
I was walking down the street
and a car hit me.
Why were you expelled?
Because I got very drunk and ruined
the Dean's car. That's why.
Even though you have a scholarship,
your grades are not the best.
Why is that, Mr. Ochoa?
Fear.
I've always been a good student,
but I'm also the first in my family
to go to college,
and the truth is that it really scared me.
I was scared of letting them down.
But seven broken bones gave me
enough time to think about everything.
I'm no longer afraid.
Quite the opposite, I'm happy and grateful
that I'm here, with you, alive.
Your candid demeanor
is not necessarily what we're looking for
in this company.
Hmm.
We need someone more diplomatic
to handle the clients.
However, if you're willing
to change your attitude,
we can consider you for the company.
Look, sir,
It took two broken legs for me to stand up
and have this attitude.
Believe me,
I won't change it for anything.
You know what? Keep the job.
I'm wasting my time here with you.
Mr. Ochoa.
I have interviewed thousands
of candidates over the years.
The truth is that they all become,
please pardon my French,
ass-kissers to get the job.
I see.
- Where do you come from?
- From my family, sir.
Welcome.
Thank you.
Dad, have you heard the saying:
"Turn your passion into your profession
and your job will feel like a game?"
That Pancho guy
put ideas into your head!
It's not that, Dad.
I don't want to be an engineer.
I'm really bad at it.
But when I grab a camera, Dad,
when I grab a camera,
I can spend eight or ten hours...
And I don't feel them.
And you'll drop out of college
a year shy of graduation?
What will Escalona say when he hears
you're going off to photograph
streetcars and birdies?
The Dean didn't take me
in the zoo, Dad.
He didn't carry me on his shoulders
after working 12 hours straight
so I could see the elephants.
It was you.
Dad, you gave me my first camera.
It was you, no one else.
But you'll starve as a photographer, son.
So what If I don't make much money
or I have a smaller home
if I'm happy doing what I like, Dad?
Dad! Dad!
How much is that trip to Portugal?
Thank you!
Pancho!
What happened?
- About what?
- With Isidoro.
Nothing, everything's the same.
I'm so angry he's presenting
your idea,
and you're so calm?
Look, yesterday a friend got
out of the hospital and got his first job.
The other will finally be a photographer,
and today you're here with me.
What more can I ask for?
Ta-da!
Open it, don't break it.
You're a wonderful corny man,
Pancho Kuri.
Me, corny?
Life is corny. It gave me you...
Let's go.
- You made this?
- With my own two hands.
Don't ask!
Thank you, everybody. It's an honor to be
here presenting my project.
You have been a column,
a pillar in my education, a great teacher.
Thank you, Chancellor,
for being here.
You two are the most important people
in my life...
right now.
Let's begin.
Here it is.
The pill.
For the morning after?
A technology that can save lives.
All I have to do is drink some water...
...and wait a couple of minutes
for it to start working.
What you see here is an app
that works with the nanopill.
A pill with nanocircuits
that can send out
my heart rate,
my blood pressure,
all of my vital signs...
Wow! I know.
You're all wondering: "Isidoro,
what's this wonderful pill for?"
To prevent diseases
before it's too late.
Goodbye, cancer, dengue,
chikungunya,
athlete's foot, erectile dysfunction.
I'm saving the worid!
That's the goal.
At any moment all the data
will be transmitted,
my heart rate, all my vital signs.
What we're starting to see
here on the computer...
What we're starting to see here in the
computer at the top...
It's a normal-
They're coming... they're...
It's a technical error.
Stinky McToilet!
- Stinky McToilet!
- No, no, no!
Stinky Isidoro!
Stinky Isidoro!
No, no, no! Silence!
Oh, God! I'll see you in my office,
Mr. Velasco.
It was him! He ruined my invention!
If it was yours,
you would have tested it!
Silence!
Do you think this is a circus?!
It's a respectable institution!
You both have until tonight
to tell the truth,
otherwise you'll be expelled
before the finals.
And you, change your clothes,
you stink!
Get out!
- What are you laughing at?
- Yuck!
We ask everyone to stay
inside and not go out.
The city has collapsed.
When does your shift end, Mariana?
I'll be in the hospital until 6:00 AM.
I won't make it to see Dad.
I'll give him his present later.
I have to hang up, we're swamped.
Yes, Mariana.
It's beautiful, darling!
Come on, blow out the candles.
Bravo!
I love you.
- Dad!
- What is it?
My water broke!
Take me to the hospital!
Professor Escalona...
Professor Escalona, I...
I...
- Dad!
- I need an ambulance!
Come on!
- Ah!
- Oh, no!
Come on, come.
Put me down.
Come on, Diana.
Come on!
Hello! Hello,
I need an ambulance!
What do you mean
you don't have one?
- My daughter is about to give birth!
- Dad! Dad, no!
Wait, Diana!
I'll go get a taxi!
Hello! Hello! Hello!
Hello?
Mariana... Mariana, I'm giving birth!
What?
- Do you think you can hold on?
- No! I'm giving birth!
Diana! What is it?
- I'm Pancho.
- Here's Mariana.
- Mariana!
- Okay, Pancho, listen to me.
The city is flooded, you won't make it.
You'll have to help her.
- To give birth?
- Yes!
Okay, okay, okay.
Let's go. No...
Breathe.
Don't leave!
No way!
Okay, I have an idea. Let's put
the phone magnet close to the seeds,
see If they work. Okay?
Help!
Help, please!
Diana's giving birth in the parking lot!
- What?!
- Felipe, prepare the room!
Let's help her!
Bring the raincoats.
Help me!
- We're here.
- We're here, come, relax.
Relax, relax!
- You wait here for Escalona!
- Okay.
All is well! All is well!
All is well!
Escalona!
Where is Diana? Where is she?
- Pancho took her.
- What are you doing here?
- This way.
- God dammit!
Grab her.
Mariana!
Get on Skype.
Skype with Mariana,
connect with her.
- There she is. Mariana, Mariana!
- Let Diana see me!
- Mariana, I can't do it!
- You can! I'm here with you!
What are you doing here?
Dad, you have to trust us!
There's no choice!
Beto, go get scissors and hot water!
Pancho, cover Diana.
What is this?
It's a nightmare!
- Dad, you either help, or you leave!
- Help, Dad, help!
Okay...
Jimena, come closer. I need you
to measure the dilation.
- Okay.
- Let's see.
A lot of dilation, a lot of blood...
No, no! Take her away!
With all due respect, sir.
Mariana!
I see nothing, no head, nothing!
I can't see anything...
- Diana! Diana!
- No, no, no!
She fainted!
What do we do?
What do you mean?
Wake her up, she has to push!
- Diana, please wake up, please!
- She needs a surgical vacuum.
- A surgical vacuum!
- What?
A surgical vacuum,
you place it on the baby's head...
Yes, the vacuum will
pull the head out!
Okay, I can- I can make one.
Bring a compressor,
a hose, a flask, cork, a funnel!
Come on, let's get it done!
Come on!
The cork.
Hold it, hold it.
Insert this.
No, no!
What-
No, no, no!
Mariana!
- What happened?
- There's a power outage!
Yes, I'm working on it. Wait.
- Batteries! I need batteries!
- Okay!
From your cars, from the lab!
Bring me batteries!
I'll be right with you!
All is well, sir. It's okay.
- Here are the cables.
- It's okay.
Coming through!
Okay, okay!
Help me make a circuit.
Put those on the chair, Miguel!
The red ones...
Take this end.
We'll close the circuit.
- You have it?
- Let's see... here.
Cross your fingers.
And... one, two, three!
It's back!
Perfect, get on the computer!
Felipe, Skype, again. Skype!
- Wait, wait, wait!
- Turn it on!
- There she is. Mariana!
- Hello!
- I love you, Pancho.
- I love you more.
- Sorry, sir.
- Go on!
- How much suction?
- How much suction?
Not more than .5.
Not more than .5.
.5, we've got it.
Stand back.
- Give it to me!
- Give it to him.
More cable!
Okay, okay, okay.
Dad, please, I need you to push
on Diana's belly like this!
Push on it like this! Like this!
One, two...
Push, Diana,
with all your strength! Push!
Push!
It's coming out!
No way! No way!
Push! Here it comes! I can see it!
I love you, I love you!
You have it?
Watch the head.
It's my grandchild!
Welcome to the world of engineers!
You can be whatever
you want in life!
- Here.
- Dad!
Congratulations, Diana!
Hey!
Where are you going?
I'm not finished with you!
I've kept this since my wife died
and I promised myself I'd give it
to an extraordinary student. Here.
No, Professor, I'm sorry, but...
I'm not your extraordinary student.
That was the last time
anybody saw Pancho.
We never heard from him again.
Then, college was over
and we all graduated.
Well, almost everyone.
Felipe Ochoa Arce.
Felipe finally did it.
The first Ochoa to graduate.
His family couldn't contain their pride,
or the auditorium, his family.
Isidoro Velasco Campillo.
Isidoro Velasco also graduated,
in spite of his gas and his cheating.
The biomedical engineer,
my daughter
Mariana Escalona Muñoz.
Mariana graduated
with honors.
It could have been one of
the happiest days of her life...
Dad!
...but not without Pancho.
Everything comes to an end
and while graduation is the end
of your studies,
but it's also the beginning of life.
They were starting
their lives as engineers,
and me, as a photographer.
There we go!
- That's good luck! It hit you.
- It is?
Cheers.
I met my friends at this school.
- I learned a lot...
- Cheers, Pancho.
...but my greatest lesson
was to follow my heart,
to follow my passions, and to be
what I want to be in life.
And I owe that to Pancho.
We thought he would suddenly make it
with a stupid surprise,
but he never came.
- Well, cheers.
- Cheers.
What I don't understand
is why he left us, Beto.
Why disappear like that,
without saying goodbye?
I don't get it.
I know why.
- The night I snuck into your place...
- I knew it, you rat!
You want me to tell you or not?
While I was copying a file,
I decided to go through your things.
And guess what?
I found he had two almost
identical birth certificates.
One under the name Francisco Kuri,
and the other one under Alfonso.
No way!
I obviously took a picture.
And I skedaddled out of there,
I didn't want you to find me.
No? Okay.
There was only one way
to find out the truth.
Ow!
Good afternoon,
where are you traveling?
To Tlayacapan.
God dammit...
TLACAYAPAN BRIDGE
Excuse me...
- The registrar's office?
- The building with the arches.
Damned miserable floors!
I'm looking for Francisco Kuri.
The best known Kuris around here
were Mr. Francisco and Mr. Ezequiel.
They died in the fire
of the Hacienda San Gabriel.
It was really ugly, even their little
ranch hand was heartbroken.
Their ranch hand?
What was his name?
Hold on... Pancho... no...
Panchito... Ponchito!
- Ponchito Perez, that was his name.
- You don't say.
Mr. Ezequiel and his family
wanted to adopt him.
That's why he stole the identity,
to get into the college!
Stinky Isidoro! Stinky Isidoro!
Remember that day everyone
humiliated me in the auditorium?
You're a moron!
Me, a moron?
You're a fraud, Isidoro.
- A fraud?
- You stinky.
Fraud?
Don't forget this day!
It's called karma!
You'll remember this day too!
Five years from now, we'll see
who is more successful!
A stupid, cow-milking farmer,
or me, Isidoro Velasco Campillo!
Mr. Ezequiel Kuri!
Ring a bell?
It's your dad, isn't it?
Don't play dumb!
Pancho Kuri is dead!
You stole his identity!
And that's fraud. It's illegal.
Your life, buddy?
That's the real fraud.
It's coming!
Shh!
- I love you, Pancho!
- I love you more!
I'm sorry, Professor, but I'm not
that extraordinary student.
He didn't have the guts
to tell you all the truth.
He was a liar, a fraud.
An identity thief. A charlatan.
- Okay, pull over.
- What are you doing, dude?
Stop it! What's the matter?
- I said stop!
- What's the matter?
You're going to kill us!
My car, dude!
- Get out!
- You're a jerk!
- What's wrong?
- Get out!
Why are you angry with me?
Your friend was a fraud!
He wasn't a fraud,
he was our friend!
Your friend? You didn't even
know who he was!
- I'm going to hit him.
- Go ahead, please.
You're going to start?
- You broke my tooth, jerk!
- You want me to break another one?
- Get in the trunk!
- Let's call Mariana!
I'll call Mariana.
- Relax! Now!
- Yes!
Hello, it's Felipe, a friend from school.
Is Mariana there?
Yes, but she's a bit busy today.
- She's getting married.
- What?
Where?
We don't have time to go get Mariana.
- Don't listen to him.
- Okay.
Okay, fine, I give up.
We'll go see Pancho,
but we have to be back by 9:00
for my Teltech meeting.
- Okay?
- Hold on, let me.
- I think I knocked him out.
- Ha!
Picture?
Beto, come!
Excuse me, do you know where
the bride's room is?
- It's that one.
- Okay, thank you.
Photographer...
I'll take care of Mariana
and you take care of Mr. Prada.
- Deal?
- Deal.
- Is it time?
- I don't know.
Hello.
- Felipe?
- Please let me in! Let me in!
- Hello, Mariana.
- Hello.
Three things.
First of all, you look beautiful.
- Thank you.
- Secondly, I'm very offended
that you didn't invite me
to your wedding.
I'm sorry, Emiliano didn't want me to.
I knew it. And thirdly,
we found Pancho.
- What?
- What?
Darling, is everything all right?
All is well, Emiliano!
Okay.
Thank you!
You can't marry him!
He's a chauvinist loudmouth
who only cares about money.
Emiliano has changed a lot, Felipe!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
Really, jerk?
You know what this is worth?
$3,000, you idiot!
That's a lot!
Is that changing a lot?
If you leave, everyone
will remember you, and this day,
but if you get married,
every day you'll remember
you already had the answer
and you took the easy road
out of fear.
Your answer is here.
Mariana, "all is well".
- All is well.
- All is well.
- Yes.
- No!
- Okay.
- Okay, what do we do?
- Is she okay?
- Yes, she's okay.
Come on, Mariana!
- Come, Mariana! I'll catch you!
- Okay.
That's it. Be careful.
Just get a good hold there!
Careful, Mariana!
- Almost, almost!
- Come on! I'll catch you!
- We'll catch you!
- It's my shoulders!
Hey! What are you doing?
- Ouch! Mariana!
- It's okay, it's okay.
- Let's get out of here!
- Where are you going, Mariana?
Come on! Let's go!
Come!
This way, Mariana!
No, no, no, no!
Pedro! Help me, Pedro!
- This is it?
- Let's go!
Help me!
Father-in-law, help me!
- What's the matter?
- Help me!
They found Pancho, Dad.
What? Leave the baby,
get In the car!
Follow me! Quick!
This can't be happening!
Twice in my life! I can't believe it!
Dad!
Please stop hitting me!
- What's Isidoro doing here?
- He knows where Pancho Is.
There's one thing, Mariana,
- we don't know Pancho's status.
- What?
- If he's married or not, for example.
- What?
- He won't be married.
- What if he is?
Don't worry, we'll go back
to your wedding and that's it.
- You morons!
- Ow!
He won't be married, I promise!
He won't be married.
- Hurry!
- I'm going as fast as I can!
Hurry, Dad, we can't lose them!
You're so stupid!
You were ready to get married,
but you'd rather live in poverty,
with Pancho, milking cows.
Shut up or I'll bury this ring
In your balls!
Go faster!
- Oof!
- Good Lord!
- Looks like it's here.
- Here?
- We're here?
- Looks like.
Here are your keys!
It's coming, it's coming
The sowing, the sowing
It's coming, it's coming
The sowing, the sowing.
All right, all right!
Let's talk about the seeds, okay?
All right, okay...
The seeds face the sun.
All right, now...
The magnets.
Now, tum the cell phones on.
- They work?
- They work!
Very good, kids.
- Very good. Wi-Fi...
- Who are they?
- What are you doing here?
- We're looking for Pancho.
I knew this day would come!
- You mean Poncho.
- No, Pancho.
No, Poncho. Alfonso Perez.
I knew it, he'll love it!
Come, come with me. Wow!
But...
Walt for me. Poncho has bought
all your photography books, Beto.
We took the children to visit
the bridge you built, Felipe.
- Where is he?
- This way! This way!
- But where?
- You came from a party?
-Yes.
- He must be with the robotics guys.
There he is, with the robotics kids.
There it is. There it is.
Let's see it.
Great, kids!
Go on.
Kids, you're all geniuses!
Pancho?
Oh!
All this time...
All this time...
You never said goodbye.
Are these your kids?
Mm-mm.
Are you married?
- No, you?
- Almost.
I ran away.
Do you want me to go back?
You mean you only disappeared
because of a name?
- You know how long we looked for you?
- No!
- You don't?
- A lot! A lot!
- A long time!
- Come here!
Idiots!
Look!
- Isidoro?
- From engineer to nanny.
Like a pedophile Peter Pan,
surrounded by children in a ranch.
Five years, like I told you.
With a huge bank account
and an appointment at 9:00
with the president of Teltech
for a merger.
Huh?
It means to get together,
so your Totonacan friend can understand.
Wait a second.
Oh, It's Teltech.
Engineer Velasco.
- Yes.
- How are you?
Everything's ready for our dinner.
Just a question, out of protocol.
Of course, of course.
How does it feel to have
your scrotum electrocuted?
Here is the president of Teltech.
Come now, Isidoro, all is well.
I've waited for this moment
for a long time.
Not content with ruining one,
you ruined the weddings
of my two daughters,
but I don't hold a grudge.
I have learned that our personal
fears must stay in the past.
- Oh!
- Oops!
I've been wanting to thank you
for a long time.
Thank you.
Sir,
I apologize in advance.
Bravo!
- Whistling and clapping, please.
- You hush! No one stop me! No one!
In addition to being
the president of Teltech,
Pancho invested his money
in his own hometown,
in children curious to learn,
and his inventions were changing
the whole region.
The meaning? Anyone?
I want you to go back
30 seconds in your lives.
How did you feel? Nervous?
Excited?
Curious?
But what do those words mean?
It's the name
of an extraordinary student,
who made me learn that not only
do I come here to teach,
but also to learn from all of you.
Let's welcome our recent graduate,
the engineer Pancho-
Poncho Perez.
- Thank you.
- Mr. Engineer.
Thank you, Professor.
Three things.
One, follow your passion.
Two, question your teachers.
- And three...
- Well...
And three,
be happy.
Live for today.
Bravo!
THE REAL ROBOTIX CHILDREN...
Demian and Esteban are
students at ROBOTIX,
created by Roberto Saint Martin,
where robotics experts
help children develop these abilities.
The model is taught throughout Mexico
and has expanded
to Latin America and the US.
In 2014, the "Robotix children”
won 1st and 2nd place In NASA's
International Air and Space Program.
In 2016 they were also acknowledged
at the World Robot Olympiad, India.
And, in Mexico, there are many others
who have dared to be an "Idiot"...
Yuvia Lopez, Valeria Sanchez,
Andrea Garcia and Monica Lopez
created PROTRASH, where they
help 37 million Mexicans
who live in overpopulated urban areas.
Innovating in the struggle
against poverty,
they exchange trash for incentives:
1 kg of trash for 1 kg of food.
Fernando Mier-Hicks, a 27-year-old
Mexican engineer,
designed a technology that simulates
the conditions in space
to test nanosatellites.
A constellation of these devices
could take the Internet
to the whole world.
Approximately 50% of the crops
for human consumption
go to waste every year.
Enrique Gonzalez and Flavio Siller
created GENIUS FOODS,
turning this waste into natural nutrients
that improve the quality
of processed food.
Fernando Ortiz Monasterio is a Mexican
architect, founder of VERDEVERTICAL,
a project that intends to improve
the environment,
the quality of life
and the urban landscape.
He covers concrete surfaces with plants
in one of the most populated cities
in the world: Mexico City.
If you follow your destiny
And don't leave the path
If you have a motive
And you don't give up
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
If you trust in your talent
This is your best moment
Make your heart pay attention
You're free as the wind
You'll make it on your own
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well
All is well, all is well.
Thank you, India, for inspiring
us with this story.
NAMASTE!
