We're all just
passing through.

For what?
We don't know.

They say life
is what happens

while you're worried
about something else.

And that we're here
supposedly to be happy.

Frankly...

that sounds cliché.

And although there
are so many of us,

we're alone.

What am I doing with this sign
that says "FREE HUGS"?

Well...



I'm giving away hugs.

Why?

Because we're all
running out of time.

INTRODUCING LAURA

Whatever you do,
it won't stop.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

This envelope is for you.

It's information about the
person
who'll take care of you.

I'll make arrangements.

I have 30 days
to arrange certain things.

A life insurance policy,

and somebody it could help.

And certain promises
thatl have

to keep.



Okay, Sebastian, you know
how castings work.

Your name, to the camera.

Sebastian Ramirez.

Listen, what happened
to your mouth?

Stop getting
into trouble, man.

Right, profile.

I heard your latest movie
never opened, did it? Left.

Now, give us a spin.

Yeah, like we have all day, man.

Now, at the camera, smile.

As if you were doing well.

Gael's movie opened today.
Will you be going?

Sebastian was coached
by a true professional.

He now has four movies
in the making.

Listen. Excuse me.

That's not true!

We have to make you stand out,
you dunce. What part...?

Smile, boy. There's a camera
in front of you.

Go ahead.

Now we just have to get you
an award-winning role.

I don't know, a gay man,
a mentally retarded boy.

Better yet, a gay
mentally retarded man.

Wow. I'm brilliant, son,
what can I do?

- That's getting old.
- Hi, Sebastian.

Karla Jauregui
is Kawachi's cousin.

Excuse me, I have some
ass-kissing to do.

- Bye, dear.
- Bye.

- How are you, Katya?
- Karla.

I'd say I'm all right.
What do you say?

Yeah, you're fine.

What are you doing later?

Later? Right now.
This is boring.

Come on.

Sebasfian!

Come here, Sebastian.
It's the premier.

I feel fine, I feel fine

Louden

I feel fine, I feel fine!
I feel fine, I feel fine!

I feel fine, I feel fine!

I feel fine,
I feel fine!

I feel fine, I feel fine!

I feel fine,
I feel fine!

I feel fine, I feel--

Hold on,
let me see who it is.

- Yes?
- I can't get to sleep again.

- That's okay, come in.
- You don't get it.

When I rented this place
you said it was quiet.

- What are you doing?
- It's really hot in here.

You can write down your
complaint
and put it in the box.

Come in.
Go ahead, come in.

Welcome, make yourself at home.
Please, sit down.

How nice,
we have a new member.

This doesn't happen
every day.

Well, let's all
sit down, please.

Come in.
Please, sit down.

Write down what you want
us to solve for you.

Well, I read your
complaints yesterday.

Raise your hand,

whoever thinks they have
a truly serious problem.

See?

Total success

We all have our problems

But they're not problems,
they're opportunities for
change!

We're here because we're a group
of happy, joyful people.

We are The Optimists!

Excuse me, I'm leaving.

No, no, no. Why?

Are you happy already,
or what?

Stay.

Guadalupe, tell us your story.

Remember you're not alone.

We're all together!

I can't go on living like this.

My voice is too high-pitched.

I have a female voice.

The worst part
is that women

don't pay attention
to me anymore.

There, there, girl.

I mean, boy.

I want...

I want to be a singer.

Let's see, does anybody want
to say something to Guadalupe?

You're raising your hand.
What do you want to tell him?

Why don't you sing something?

Sometimes singing helps
when you're nervous.

Let's make a list of the things
we still have to do in life.

We got away from my
bodyguards! Like, yeah!

Watch that pothole,
I have brand-new boobs.

So, where are
all the paparazzi?

Aren't they always
following you?

It would be so cool if you
lost them now that I'm with you.

- Too cool.
- I know, listen.

We could be like Angelina Jolie
and Brad Pitt.

Well, third-world, obviously.

We could adopt a bunch of kids
from a village in Veracruz.

- Right?
- You're so funny, Katya.

- Karla, stupid. Karla.
- Karla, okay.

Listen.

Seriously, you and I have
this incredible connection.

You could fall in love
with me for real.

I mean, for real.

Well, if you let yourself go.

I don't really
believe in that, but...

What do you believe in?
What do you like?

I don't know.

Listen.

Why don't we do it in the car?
Do you like that?

Shit.

Shit, what a crash.

Help, help me!
Please help me!

Bust the airbag, bust it now!

Attempted homicide?

Stop busting my balls!

Sebastian was only
trying to save her.

Look, Charlie.
Under Articles 130 and 135

of the Mexico City
Penal Code,

all reckless crime
disputes are processed

where vehicles are involved.

Especially when the driver
is under the influence.

But darling,
in that kind of injury,

the offended party
can emit a pardon.

There was a red light,
it was his fault.

It was green,
damn it, green!

I was a bit drunk,
but it wasn't my fault.

My career is going to hell
on account of that Katya.

Karla!

How can you continue
representing him, Charlie?

What can I do?
I'm a professional!

Right, son?
Don't listen to her.

Look, I think it'd be best
for Sebastian

to apologize personally.

The kids are friends.

What do you mean friends?
I don't even know her.

Yes, but the girl is a doll.

It was love at first sight.

It happens sometimes,
you know.

Look Charlie, getting a minor
drunk
and risking her life

is punished by jail, Sebastian.
Your career is over!

Here are the documents, period.

Darling, come here, come here.

I'll see you
at the end of the month.

Son of a bitch!
We're going to trial!

Charlie, both of us know

it was the other car
who ran the light.

No, I don't know that, sonny.

You ran it, he did, or I did--
it's all the same.

What we need is for Karla
to testify in your favor.

Stay in from now
until the trial.

Sleep at a relative's
until the end of April.

April: my edible calendar.

One a day.
My victims.

This one is the 30th.

Tell me, egg,
how does it feel to know...

you're the last egg
I'm going to eat?

Oh, yeah.

I have calendars
all over the place.

Made of matches,
roulettes, buttons, Lego...

Made of...

everything.

And my wall: April 5th.

What should I do
in the time I have?

The Optimists said
we should make

a list of the things
we want to achieve.

Why not?

TO DO THIS MONTH
A list.

Number One:

Return the movies I kept.

Damn.
ls that all I can think of?

No. I have to think
of something better.

Find a purpose.

This is the first book
my mother and I wrote.

- Say you like the book.
- I like the book.

Give your brother a kiss.

I made the drawings
and Mom wrote the story.

How can you get angel wings?

Saving somebody.

Here the angels says:

"lf you save a life
and you take care of it,

you'll get your wings back.

Finding a purpose.

Save a life...

and take care of it.

Now that I have your lists,
we're going to work in groups.

Because problems are
no longer problems when...

You share them!

Yes, let's make that list.
I have a lot of things to do.

Yes, because remember
that you're not alone.

We're all together!

You and me.

You're a classic, mister.

Classics and newer models...

are a perfect fusion.

Mariana, didn't you want
to make a list?

Yes, I did.
But by myself.

Let's see, the atmosphere
is turning negative.

Everybody, stand up.
Go catch her, please.

Go on.

Let's all sing
"Woes Won't Kill Me."

Listen.
Why don't we try it?

I don't want to, Mr. Arturo.
I do everything by myself.

Why don't we do a lot of things
in the time we have left?

I won't live past April.

Really?

Well, if you die before me,

I promise I'll finish it up.
And if I die first,

promise you'll finish my list?

I can't.

"Save a life
and take care of it.

Shoutout
all the bad words I know."

It's incomplete.

No, don't. Listen, that list
is mine, give it to me.

"Laugh till my stomach hurts."

Don't! You can't write on it,
it's my list.

- Give it to me.
- It's both of ours.

We're a team.

All right. It doesn't matter.
It's not important anyway.

I won't move from here until
you promise to finish the list.

Life can leave us at any moment.

That's why we have to
live it to the fullest.

You have to find someone
to finish your list with.

Save a life and take care of it.

Shoutoutafl
the bad words I know.

Laugh until my stomach hurts.

See the Aurora Borealis.
Give a thousand hugs.

Jesus Christ,
he's going to jump!

Don'tjust stand there!

- I can't believe that guy!
- Go get a sheet.

Yes, if he jumps we'll
cover him with it.

Call the fire department!

Open up!

You're hot!

Excuse me, sir. How can
I go up to the roof?

Another stripper?
Another one?

No, no. How can
I get up on the roof?

- Boob? Bigger boobs!
- No, no, no!

A man up there wants to die.

He wants to...

- Harakiri?
- Yes!

What?

Where? That way?

A guy on the roof
is threatening to jump.

We have to help him, please.

- Help me!
' Hurry, hurry!

Climb up.

Holy Mother!

Oh, damn it, damn it!

Fucking shit!

Don't do it!

I've got to be out of my mind!

Listen, living is worth
the effort.

Okay, not always.
Sometimes it's really messed up

but you're only making it worse
with your indecision.

Will you do it?
Tell me the truth.

I can't believe this.

I bet 100 pesos you'd jump.

- What?
- You have to do it soon.

What do you need,
a little push?

I know. I'll count to three
and you'll jump.

Head first,
you can't miss. Okay?

One, two...

...and three!

No, no, no!

Are you going to do it or not?
You're so indecisive. Look.

Will you just leave me alone?

Tell me what the problem is,
we'll find a solution.

You, you're the problem!

The solution
is for you to go.

Okay.

Sometimes it helps to sing
when you're nervous.

Here I come.

Holy shit

Stop singing!
What do you want?!

Not to be
on this stupid ladder!

- Help me please! Help!
- Hold on to me!

They're finally here.

Give me your other hand.

What happened?

That creep
threw her off the roof.

- Help.
- Hold on!

Go ask for backup!

Hold on.

Okay, let's go up.
Move, move.

Hold on tight, come on.

- Hold on.
- It's going to fall down!

Come on, come on.

Stop right there!

What do you mean?
They're not moving.

I'm the authority.

Anything you say
can be used against you.

Come on, come on.

Okay, move. Move.

Good thing we
rescued you, right, miss?

Get up, you creep.
Now you're really f...

Hey, Chief. Don't use that
language
in front of the girls.

Don't move.

Under the authority
vested in me by law,

you're under arrest!

- Be quiet.
- Can't you see...?

Good, Chief.
It's a beautiful picture.

Move! What is it?
Are you all right?

Hey.

- Hi.
- Where am I?

In hell.

We jumped off
the fifth floor.

Welcome.

What are you doing here?

You were charged
with attempted murder.

What?

Who did I supposedly
try to kill?

- You?
- Yeah.

They couldn't find the keys...

...so they pulled
the handcuffs off.

You're not well.
You're nuts.

We both are.

I ended up in this wheelchair

and you're disfigured.

Come on! It's a joke, relax.
Your face is fine.

Your eyes are set apart,
and you have a wide nose.

That means you're honest.

People whose lower lip
is larger than the upper

are supposed to be
excellent kissers.

- What?
- One more thing.

Big feet mean something
entirely different.

What?

- Nothing.
- Who are you, anyway?

What do you want?

Something.

She took care of him all night.

How about a lollipop?

Thanks.

How are you doing, champ?
Get over here.

Your fake suicide attempt
was a great stunt.

It wasn't fake,
I wanted to do it.

You're shitting me.

This will generate compassion
amongst your public see?

Grandpa said that when you
save a life, it belongs to you.

But you have to take care of it.

We've been good to you,
haven't we?

Forget that,
just speed things up.

He has to get out
as soon as possible.

Would you like to be
an actress, dear?

No, she wouldn't.
Did you get my glasses?

Here. Listen, Sebastian.

I brought something that will
bring your career back to life.

Great, my movie's coming out.

No. These lollipops
are going to be re-launched.

They want you as their
spokesman. It's great.

What? Spokesman for lollipops?
Stop shitting me.

Will you stop moving the bed?

Look, Sebastian. Now we must
concentrate on the lawsuit.

We have a meeting at 5:00
with the lawyer.

- Can I go now?
- Yes.

No.

Not until I drop all charges.

Well, that's done.

Son, son. Lay low,
stop making waves.

Try the lollipops
and stop jerking around.

They're good.

Thanks for
seeing me home.

It's the least I can do.
ls this it?

Apartment four.

Will you take my wallet
out for me?

I have to pay the cab.

- I can't do it.
- Yes.

There.

Keep the money
from the bet.

No, I lost.

What's more,
you are free of all charges.

Good luck with your life.

Ybutoo.

Hey!

- Conchita.
- Yes, who were you expecting?

May I come in?
I need to check something...

It'll come off with thinner.

You fixed it up so...

SO...

beautifully.
You're really talented, girl.

I have an eye for talent.

Well, I'd like you to use
this desk as well.

Just don't write on it.

I got it from dad
on my 16th birthday.

- Where's your family?
- Out of town.

You should write to them.

A typewriter makes
you feel like writing letters.

Will you help me?

It's a biography
of one of my characters.

Will you type it for me?

On this?

"Roberta is
a 30-year-old nurse."

How nice, tea!

I love tea.

Who's Manuel?

I had a boyfriend named Manuel
once.
I got fed up with him.

He used to call me
every five minutes.

Sorry, did I hit you?

I don't see how you can live
with
just one plate, one cup and one
glass.

What do you do
when you have company?

I never have company.

Shall I stick the texts
under your door?

- Okay.
- You can take the tea.

No, you see,
tea is meant to be shared.

But, well, some other time.

Bye.

What now, Conchita?

- You have my wallet.
- What?

Done?

What did you...?

Now I'm done.

I'm done.
I said I'm done.

Wait there.

No, don't! Wait, wait!

I told you not to
get the furniture dirty.

Conchita will kill me.

She's my landlady.
Here, take this off.

Gross.

She's my neighbor,
but she's kind of crazy.

She talks to herself
and comes over to...

Come on.

Man!

Oh, shucks.

SAVE A LIFE
AND TAKE CARE OF IT

April 10th.

April 11th.

And tomorrow, April 12th.

Can I ask you something?

I knew you would.

Yes, it's me. But...

Let's just say I look
a bit different.

- It's too much, right?
- I only eat the whites.

I saved you, so I need to
ask you for something.

It's no big deal, and it's
quick.

- It's...
- Do you have a pen?

Yes.

Here.

What? Your autograph?

You think I climbed up
that building

and risked my life
for this?

- Nobody made you do it.
- No, but I did it anyway.

Who said I was
going tojump, huh?

"Once you're up there
you hesitate."

Sure you do.
Where are you going?

- I have things to do.
- You didn't eat your eggs!

Listen.

Thanks to me
you're not looney.

My neighbor tried
to commit suicide

and now he walks around
wearing a mask.

I told you.

- Are you leaving like this?
- I have stuff to do.

Listen, please. I need--
hey, listen up.

When somebody helps
somebody else,

that other person
is usually grateful

and sayshanks for helping me,
I've got goals to meet."

I'm that somebody who needs
help,
I have goals to meet.

I can't!

Why not?

Listen!

You have
something to do?

What do you have
to do today?

You were going to be dead
by now anyway.

Okay. What do you
need help with?

Now I don't want to anymore.

Can I come with you?

It's notjust
when you feel like it.

According to your theory,

I owe you my life,
so I'm coming with you.

Why?

Please?

- All day.
- All day. No, half day.

- Half day.
- Then, forget it.

Fine, all day.

- All day.
- Okay. Hop on.

Let's go, let's go, let's go!

Meme?

Mariana?

What about yourjob
at the Ministry?

My boss interrupted
my literary career, for the
moment.

Now, I'm a misunderstood poet.

Meme, Sebastian.

What's up with him?

- He's replacing Arturo.
- What?

Just hold on tight.

What are you guys doing?

- The green light is on.
- Bye.

Hey.

Do you work here?

No, we're shopping.

Where is everyone?

They're all gone.

- Hi, Andrea.
- Hi, Eva.

Eva?

This is my friend Sebastian.

He's interested
in your product.

They're ready,
over here please.

The best view is that way.

Let's get moving.

- What are they like?
- To die for.

On this side, water...

...heaven, and hell.

Here they are.
Aren't they gorgeous?

Of course, we have
several models.

This one, for example
has a silk interior,

which means it
doesn't cause chafing.

- I have sensitive skin.
- It's ideal.

- What about this one?
- Do you like it?

- What?
- No.

You'd look chubby in that.

But that one elongates
your figure.

Please, come over here.
Follow me.

I call this one
"Rest in Peace 5000.

It's the ultimate.

What's this button for?

In case you're buried alive.
Cool, huh?

There are five other songs,
one of them uplifts your spirit.

A Christmas tune.

Over here, please.

You wanted to die, didn't you?

This is the preparation room.

We have state-of-the-art
draining and refill technology.

Those are the clothes
we put on them.

This one just came in
for preparation.

It looks like your
friend saw a corpse.

- Did you hear me?
- Yes.

He looks like he saw a corpse.

- Are these really dead?
- No, they're not really dead.

They're asleep.

You have to wake them up
with a kiss.

Is your boyfriend available?

He's not my boyfriend.
I'm giving him a lesson.

He's my slave for a day.

- Sex slave?
- I need some air.

Well, he should be.
Sex liberates and exhilarates.

It gives you energy,
opens you up and motivates you.

- Sex makes you bigger--
- Andrea, Andrea!

He's going to hear you.

I'm practically
back to being a virgin.

What?

I've been so depressed,
I'm even growing a beard.

Look.Look!

I'll be damned!

- I'll be damned!
- I have too much testosterone.

I've tried everything,
used all sorts of injections.

I don't know what else to do.

Why don't you braid it?

That's really funny!

Have you heard
of The Optimists?

I don't need therapy.

Don't throw up on
Mrs. Gutierrez, no, no!

Andrea, is Mrs. Gutierrez ready
for the open-casket service?

Open-cas ket?

Is that her?

Thanks for cremating Pitillo,
he was the best hamster ever.

She's joking,
these kids are interested in...

Breathe, breathe.

Here, smell this, smell this.
Smell this.

Watch out!

Are...

are you okay?

Careful. Let's see.

I swear it wasn't me.

That one, I'm not so sure.

Wait a minute.

LAUGH TILL
MY STOMACH HURTS

ljust, ljust...

Well, I'll be going now.

I had a good time.

Me too.

That car has been there all day.

Hey, hey, hey!

Did you get the plate?

- Can we go into your place?
- Sure.

Hello, Veronica.

Thanks for typing
my papers, Mariana.

Listen, listen.

The nut called you Mariana,
thatjerk called you Veronica,

and the woman called you Eva.

Which is it?

- It doesn't matter.
- Yes it does.

I'm Sebastian Ramirez

and I'd like to know
who I spent the day with.

With me, nice meeting you.
I don't care about names.

But I do care about you!

What did that mean about me
replacing some Arturo guy?

It's really hard to explain,
you see.

Look, I didn't plan it.
I don't know how...

You want to sleep with me
for some strange reason?

- What?
- Are you from the press?

- Where is it?
- No, give it back!

- Why, why?
- Because I said so.

Why can'tl read it?

For your information,

Mr. Arturo was an old man
I was helping finish this list

before April was over.

He died because of me.

And no, I don't want
to have a thing with you.

SAVE A LIFE
AND TAKE CARE OF IT.

I'm a bit...

I'm kind of paranoid.
I don't know.

- It's okay, you didn't know.
- Look.

You've done two things
on the list.

I promised I'd finish it
in a team.

I'm not done yet. Look.

Give a thousand hugs.

See the Aurora Borealis.

That's impossible.
Who would have chosen that?

He did.

SHOUT OUT ALL THE
SWEAR WORDS I KNOW

Will you help me finish it?

Only if you tell me
your name.

At the end.

Can it be whatever I want?

It can't be anything
that hurts somebody else,

they have to be fun...

- All right.
- ...and nothing sexual.

- You said fun.
- Nothing sexual.

All right.

Take a look.
FLASH OLD FOLK

DANCE RIDICULOUSLY

No, not that. I can't.
Something else.

- You.
- Something easier.

CLIMB UP
THE ANGEL MONUMENT

- Can you sing?
- Not a single note.

WRITE A SONG

- Can you paint?
- Yes.

See that painting?

SELLA PAINTING

That's my latest one.

It's cool, because it can be
wherever you want.

Sell one of my paintings?

Are you going to buy it?

We have to finish
before April is over.

Only if you tell me your name.

Valeria.

APRIL

DANCE RIDICULOUSLY

OVERCOME OUR FEARS

CLIMB UP
THE ANGEL MONUMENT

FLASH OLD PEOPLE

With this, it's 365...

You're really committed
to the list?

Yes. Does that fat lady
count as two--

I ask you to hide
at a friend's house

and you go and show your ass
to some old folks?

Karla is here, if you're
not here in 30 minutes...

Okay, I'm on my way.
All right, bye.

I know how we can--

Your list is really
cool and all,

but I have important stuff to
do.
No hard feelings.

- Good luck, bye.
- What?

Where are you going?

- Good luck, take care.
- This is important, too.

Bye!

In showbiz news, it turns out
that now we've seen

more than
Sebastian Ramirez's back.

Aside from being sued
by Karla Jauregui,

he was seen exposing
himself in public

in front of elderly people.

What can I say, Charlie?

Say something nice.
I don't know, apologize.

- Apologize for what?
- Look...

they're giving the girl
a reality show.

And she wants you to be in it.

It's a good option.
We'd have sponsors, everything.

Sebasfian.

She's waiting.

I've been thinking, Katya...

I'm Karla, you idiot!

I don't ever want to see
you again, creep!

What's wrong?
What's this mess?

They had me followed,
they're spying on me.

That's enough, let's go.
See you soon, Charlie.

The trial is in a few days!

Can I stay at
your place tonight?

Listen, son.
If you're being followed,

where's the first place
they'd look for you?

- What? 15 years?!
- Like I said.

Accept the deal,
do the reality show

and you'll be her boyfriend
in the end.

What do you mean?
That's a lie.

A lie that will save your life.

Cut the crap. Look,
go into hiding and think it
over.

It's 15 years in jail.

I can't believe this bullshit...

So, you want to die?

We're going to make it quick.

Get some life insurance.

The beneficiary
must be Ramon Lopez.

I have someone
who will get the job done.

Write down the policy number
policy on this ribbon.

Hang it from the clock
on April 30th.

Then, there will be
no turning back.

All right.

We're going to be watching you.

This is not a game, Laura.

Whatever you do, it won't stop.

Here, please.
I need you to write down

your beneficiaries
in the case of your death.

Children with Cancer Charity,
care of Ramon Lopez.

Sign here, please.

That's fine.

Now, all I can do

is congratulate you.

We only live once, you know.

"Like James Dean,
the movie star accelerated.

The traffic light was as red

as the blood pumping
through his veins.

Nobody knew it would be
the last day of their lives."

It's excellent!

It's excellent!

Who did that happen to?

To some guy.
Whoever.

Have you thought
of publishing it?

- Well...
- You should finish a book

and publish it.
And you could

You could even call it:
"From Acts... to Actions"...

by Meme...

By Meme...

- By Meme, what?
- Wobbly.

Meme Wobbly.

What's your mother's
last name?

What?

Woodcock.

Meme Wobbly Woodcock.

We have to get you
a pseudonym.

No, no.

That'll do fine.

We have to be proud
of who we are.

Don't we?
Imagine if my name

were "Meme Uranus."

That's wobbly.

Listen...

would you write
something about me?

No, that's just for people
who are about to die.

I could improvise with you.

Look.

- Do you have some gum?
- Yes.

- Here.
- Take note, take note.

Look. I saw her coming.
It was love at first sight.

She had to finish her list,
and I offered to help.

What do those wounds hide?

What other stories
are hidden inside?

What regrets, what triumphs?

WHILE HE WAITS
FOR KARLA JAUREGUI'S STATEMENT,

SEBASTIAN RAMIREZ IS IN DANGER
OF SPENDING 15 YEARS IN JAIL.

Why did you want
to commit suicide?

You wake up and know what
the rest of your life will be
like.

Nothing makes sense.

You want to change something
in your past, but you can't.

The only thing
that won't stop

is time.

I'm alone.

So am I.

Do you like it?

What are you doing?

You know
what I was thinking?

Why don't you
write Karla a letter

and ask her
to tell the truth?

- No.
- Yes. You can type it.

That way you can think out
what you're going to say.

No. What for?
She just wants to be famous.

What about you?

Hi. I'm here to see Erica,
of Children with Cancer.

Hi. Hi, I'm Erica.

Hi, I'm Valeria.
I called you, remember?

Of course, it's a pleasure.

- Sebastian.
- Hi.

- Nice to meet you.
- You too.

Like I said, we want to raise...

...5 million pesos
for marrow transplants.

We have 20 kids,
would you like to meet them?

- Sure.
- Yes? Come on.

Wait here.

I'm going to make
a donation.

Let's go.

Will you lend me
your typewriter?

Katya.

Karla.

FREE HUGS

Yes.

Come on, don't be shy.

Oh, Sebastian!

I have a female voice.

I have some injections
that can help.

Bye.

DONATE CLOTH ES

GIVE A THOUSAND HUGS

We did it, we did it!

A thousand and one now.

Asshole!

Come on, do it right.
More.

- Loud?
- Yeah.

Asshole!

Son of a bitch!

Damn, shit face!

Bitchy whore with a dickface!

- Motherfucker!
- Motherfucker!

Motherfucker!

SHOUT OUT ALL
THE BAD WORDS I KNOW

Valeria, your name
isn't important

This moment is about
to escape into thin air

And in every glance
I feel my desire

Foryou.

WRITE A SONG
I didn't know you sang.

So badly.

Shut your eyes.

Go on.

Hold out your hand.

Open them.

Your wings.

You won them back.

No, leave the key on it.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Thanks.

Are you okay, Valeria?

- What's wrong?
- I have to go.

Where to?

Aren't you going to get that?

- Yes?
- We have an arrest warrant

for Sebastian Ramirez.

Where are you taking him?

To the D.A.'s office.

- Sebastian.
- Don't worry, I'll be fine.

Do you have any comments?

Please, a comment for the press.

Remember what I said.

Do that reality show,
and you're free.

Listen carefully, Mr. Ramirez.

I need you to observe
very closely...

this photo
of Miss Karla Jauregui.

Take a good look.

Do you acknowledge
that you ran a red light

on the corner of Mississippi
and Lerma at 3:45 a.m...

with Miss Karla Jauregui
in the car?

No.

Now we will hear Miss Karla
Jauregui's statement.

- I need to talk to you, please.
- Mr. Ramirez.

Please.

Officer, my client needs
to use the restroom.

Please, I can't
stand it anymore.

I have to go, too.

Both?

Bodily functions.

May l?

Did my lawyer
mention the deal?

I sent you some letters,
did you read them?

Which? The ones you wrote
while I was convalescing

and you were running around
with that other chick?

The paparazzi took photos.

Look, I want to tell you that

I don't care if it was you who
sent
the guy in the gray car.

I don't care anymore.

What happened was horrible,
I was irresponsible.

I shouldn't have taken you
away from that party, I'm sorry.

I really need to know
if you'll forgive me.

And I want to know if you'll
be in my reality show.

Meme!

I have to go, because

I wrote on Conchita's desk
and she kicked me out.

It was a family heirloom.

Don't go.
I've got it all figured out.

You can paint, I'll write.

I make 400 pesos
per traffic light.

And we have a place to live.

Plus, I'm getting a motorcycle.

- They're promoting me.
- I can't, I have to go.

Move in with me.

Karla Jauregui.

Tell us your version
of the facts.

It's true that we were
distracted. It is.

When we got to the traffic
light,
Sebastian accelerated.

Your Honor,
the traffic light was on red.

Young man.

No, wait a minute.

Hey, I'm not done yet, okay?!

You ignoramus.

Right before we crossed it,
the light changed to green.

Then this idiot came along
and crashed into us.

You can't imagine,
he rammed right into us.

He totaled the car.

Then, to top it off,
the whole country

found out about my boobs.

That's the only surgery
I've ever had.

Write that down, the only one!

You idiot!

Okay, in other words,
my statement

is that Sebastian Ramirez

is not guilty.

Resolution:
Sebastian Ramirez Gamboa is

not guilty.

Handcuff the guilty party.

Thanks, Karla.

I don't need you, huh?

I'm going to do my reality show
by myself.

Write that down
about my reality show.

And then a soap

and then,
I'm off to Hollywood.

Just like Salma.

LGPS 9Q!

Son, sonny.
Congratulations.

Why do you have to go?

I don't want to be found.

Over a desk?

Conchita won't look for you,
and I can file in your favor.

No, I don't mean Conchita.
It's Sebastian.

What? Did he do
something to you?

No, he didn't do anything.

- Then?
- I'm in love with him

and I can't tell him.

- Sebastian, just a few words.
- Security, please!

Everything is going
to pick up now.

I have a campaign for you
from the Canadian Scotiabank.

You'll be back in circulation.
Isn't that what you wanted?

No, Charlie,
I didn't know what I wanted.

Here.

Forget it,
I'm walking this time.

Take care of them, have fun.

Good, he might've crashed
and burst a testicle.

Sir, will you say something
for the press?

Sebastian Ramirez
needs worry no more.

His case is closed
and he is not guilty.

On another note, today was
the most polluted day in the
city.

The particles in the air will
cause meteorological phenomena.

So, can I stay at your place?

Yes. I'll do whatever
you want me to.

I want you to finish your book.

Good luck.

What about those flowers?

I'm diversifying.
I can't live off a street
corner.

I'll buy them.

Here.

Keep it, gotta go. Thanks.

Did you hear?

She forgave me.

Congratulations.

These are for you.

Thanks, Valeria.

Sebasfian,

there's something
I want to tell you.

- I've been thinking--
- Me too, me too.

I realized it
on my way over here.

- Where is it?
- What?

- Here?
- What?

It's incomplete.

Live?

With you.

Together.

For a long time.

I really like you.

I'm falling in love with you.

Please don't say that to me.

Valeria.

When I met you,

I thought you were crazy.

But I realized that...

I'm the one who was nuts.

No.

I'm really not well.

You taught me

that today's all we have.

You're right.

Yes.

Today is all we have.

Did you see that?

It's...

The most polluted city
in the world.

SEE THE AURORA BOREALIS

Manuel.

No, please don't.

Go away,
what are you doing here?

Laura, I care for you.
I need to know you're all right.

Okay, you saw me.
I'm fine, now please go.

And you're leaving now?
You're going to vanish again?

- No, Manuel.
- Why do you do that, Laura?

Please, move back in with me.

What for?
You were never there for me.

Who's this?

Tell me, are you
going away with him?

- No.
- What's this creep doing here?

- What's up, who is this creep?
- No, that's what I said.

He's nobody.
Please, Manuel.

Tell him who I am
so he knows you're not alone.

He can grab his things
and get the fuck out!

- Please.
- I'm not leaving

until you tell me
who this son of a bitch is.

The son of a bitch
who's going to kick your ass!

- What, creep?
- Stop, Manuel.

Manuel, stop!

What's wrong with you,
you idiot? Stop, stop!

Manuel is my boyfriend.

- Laura.
- Be quiet.

Your name is Laura?

I'm an idiot.

Don't worry, I'm the one
who's leaving.

No, Sebastian.

Sebasfian!

Why didn't you tell him
who I was?

Because, I don't want anybody
to find me, that's why.

Why are you leaving?

You move from one place
to another.

Next time I may not
get there on time.

I hate time. I hate it!

It's too late anyway,
can't you see?

No. Let's go,
let's go away together.

Everything will be fine.

It won't be fine.

It won't be fine, Manuel.
It's still here, inside my head.

I need, I need to be alone.

I need to think.

CONCHITA BEIS
APRIL 25TH

I have a surprise for you.

Thank you!

20 KIDS

FOR MY FUNERAL

It's all right.
It's all right to cry.

Have a seat.

You were right
about telling the truth.

I know, Charlie.

When you first walked
into this office,

you were
a seven-year-old squirt.

Your dad said, "Here's my son,
he says he wants to be an
actor."

Could I act?

Don't ruin the moment!
Listen, listen.

There was a certainty
in your eyes

that made me
want to help you.

Charlie, I want to
go back to acting.

That's great, son! Great.

I have something for you.

The distributor wants to
take advantage of this scandal

- to finally open your movie!
- Don't shit me.

I shit you not.

But, do me a favor.

Try not to crash
or run any lights.

- Okay?
- Thanks, Charlie. Thanks.

I love you, sonny.

Excuse me.
Please, step aside.

Laura vanished!

Wait! Security, security!

No! She's my sister!
Laura!

I don't know where she is.

- She said you're her boyfriend.
- She's always running.

She told me she was going.

- Is she with you?
- No.

What if something
happens to her?

Where are you going?

Sebasfian!

All right.

Hey, where's Laura?

I don't know.
She was staying with me,

but when I got home
she was gone.

She isn't here, either.

Why? What's wrong?

- Take me to your place.
- Sure.

- What are you looking for?
- I don't know.

Her brother says
she tends to leave.

She runs away.

I don't know from what.

"For my funeral"?

"Save a life
and take care of it.

"Shout out all the...

Laura! Laura!

- I'll check here.
- Laura!

Laura!

Children with Cancer Charity,

care of Ramon Lopez.

Who's Ramon Lopez?

I don't know.

She's not here, man,
I looked all over.

This is for you.

FOR SEBASTIAN
REMEMBER APRIL

FOR MY FUNERAL

What is it?

"April 30th,
the clock at the park."

"Right in the heart."

We have to finish
before April is over.

Shit!

Lend me your vest.

What should we do?

Go home in case
she stops by.

Whatever you do,

it won't stop.

Why?

I was driving.

We had picked up
my little brother

who'd spent the weekend
in the hospital.

I was distracted

and crashed.

I don't like to be Laura

because Laura killed
her family, don't you see?

My brother wasn't killed
by the cancer, it was me.

- No, it was an accident.
- It was me!

It was an accident.

Come, listen to me.
Forgive yourself.

Forgive yourself.
Here.

It was an accident.

I have to die for those
children to survive.

But I'm scared.

I'm so scared.

I don't want to die!

Come on, let's go.

What? What's wrong?

Relax, please, listen to me.

Don't. It's only me he wants.

I'm not leaving you alone.

If you're going to shoot,
shoot me!

No! Laura!
Laura, talk to me!

Laura.

Laura!

Because we're all just
passing through.

For what?

To accept ourselves.

To write our own story.

To achieve something
we've always dreamed of.

Cut!

- Did you like it, Mr. Director?
- It was great.

- What did you think, Charlie?
- Let's play that back.

Let's sing!

To help.

THE OPTIMISTS

To give somebody else
a chance to start over.

Thank you for your help!

Even to who least expects it.

DONATION GIVES
TRANSPLANTS TO 2O KIDS

To make a list of things
you want to achieve.

To achieve them.

Lend me your vest.

To take risks
knowing you may lose.

But also, that you may win.

I'd like to buy that painting.

Laura.

SELLA PAINTING

Hi.

I don't know if we're here
to be happy.

But we are definitely here

to live.
