That's not how you say cheers.

[sighs]

[glass clatters]

Ah, no?

[Daniel] What's wrong?

Next time, try knocking.

[Luis scoffs]

It'll be fine if you just don't
sing the chorus, okay?

Then why don't you do it?



If you can.

[man] Last week? I'll get tickets.

[Patricio in Spanish] He's almost done.

Almost done?

Relax. You're gonna be great.

[sniffs] Micky, look.

You're on after Tony Bennett.

- [man in English] Happy birthday!
- [both laugh]

[in Spanish] Little nervous, though.

[in English] Okay, kid. Are we okay?

- Yeah.
- Well, all right.

- Do me a favor, go kill 'em in there.
- [laughs]

- Right.
- [applause]

[Luis] I had the opportunity,
when I was a little kid,

to listen to all of Frank Sinatra's songs.

And I believe I learned
English through his songs.

And years later,

I had the opportunity to sing
on one of his albums.

Feels like a dream come true.

So, happy birthday, Frank.

Thank you very much.

And I hope all of you will
come fly with me tonight.

[applause]

[audience shouting]

[Daniel in Spanish] If you don't sing,
you don't get paid, Micky.

You know that.

Yeah, he presented you as a god.

So what, huh? Two years? Three?

- No, one year, max.
- Oh, come on. We gotta...

Just wait until you see
what we're planning.

[laughing] It's just... It's just crazy.

Something that's never been done
in Latin America.

You'll be famous in Patagonia.

You want your chance
to sing in Las Vegas? This is it.

And every one of your albums will...

Are you listening?

- Micky...
- [in English] Waiter.

[waiter] Yes, sir?

Send a bottle of Pétrus '75
to that table over there.

- Right away, sir.
- Thank you.

[Patricio laughs]

- [in Spanish] No way.
- You never learn, man.

[in English] A gift
from the gentleman at the table.

[Patricio in Spanish] What did you expect?

She's Mariah Carey. [chuckles]

[in English] Sorry,
but she's not taking gifts.

Ah, bullshit.

[waiter] Should I leave the bottle?

- Yeah, we're not wasting that wine.
- [waiter] Excellent. Enjoy.

[in Spanish] Okay, let's get going.
It's getting late anyway.

I want to go skiing tomorrow,
in the morning.

Come on, let's go.

[loud conversation and laughter]

[TV commentator] ...and you see
in the back by the racetrack,

we're actually in the enclosed...

They've corralled the ring right there.

And a few of the...

So what's happening with Macho?

He can't punch with Macho!

The only way he's gonna win
is cheating, man.

Like Trinidad.

Or like Chávez.

Fuck, that was some bullshit!

Travesty.

- You mind?
- Sit.

[TV] And to Macho's bodywork,
he's putting more power...

[man] He's gotta move.

There he goes! Come on.

- Let's go, Macho!
- [claps hands]

That's it! That's it.

He can't hit him.
Puerto Ricans are good boxers.

- The greatest.
- [scoffs]

Where are you from?

Uruguay.

José Pérez, good to know you.

Where are you from?

- San Juan.
- Oh, yeah? What a coincidence!

[in English] Bartender,
my friend, two beers.

One for me and one for my special friend.

[laughs]

ARIES PRODUCTIONS

[in Spanish] Honey, put this in my office.

Karla!

That's a pretty jacket.

- Wanna borrow it?
- [laughs]

Cousin! How's my aunt and uncle?

All right. On vacation.

Again? Oh, my gosh.

Okay, then. [sighs]

Do we have a firm date
for the video shoot?

On Friday.

Then we'd better send the jet
to go get Micky.

He insisted that
he wanted to stay in Aspen. Okay?

But we can't send the jet
anywhere right now.

Why not?

Let's just say we have problems with cash.

The office rent isn't free.

This past month, you had us pay
for a total remodel up here.

How about the chef you hired?

- All the private jet trips?
- I get it.

And you keep raising your salary.

Oh, no. [laughs]

[Karla] So, tell me, please.
How do we fix this?

What about this promo tour with Micky?

- That'll boost our liquidity.
- There isn't any liquidity.

I'm having trouble making payroll
for the next month.

And we don't want to be sued.

What did Warner pay us for the video?
Same as they paid last time, yeah?

Yes...

- Actually...
- Yes or no?

- [cousin] Yes, they paid a little...
- Okay.

Lily, get me on with Gustavo Garzón,
he's the director.

Relax, I got this.

Take it easy.

Hmm?

- How'd it go?

Great. I was at the bar till 3 a.m.
with that Puerto Rican.

He said she came here to purchase a house.

And she's been staying with a friend,
some actor.

- But she's only here for a few days.
- She's looking at houses?

No, she's not looking, she's obsessed with
one house with a view of some mountain.

- I know she offered a ton of money.
- Did he give you an address?

Yeah.

I got it.

[Patricio] It's like this, Gus.

You see what his schedule is like.

There isn't time for a long video shoot.

Mmm.

Why do you need
more days and a bigger budget?

To make another mess like the last video?

Gustavo, you're a director.

Go find a solution,

or let me know
and I'll bring someone else in for it.

Hey, great! [laughs]

I'll see you there. Bye!

There you go. There's your money
for this month's payroll.

What about next month's?

Are you gonna cut
the budgets for every video on the record?

The money's coming in now
off the promo tour.

That's gonna put us in front of this.

Relax, now, cousin.

- [phone rings]
- [sighs]

Yes, Lily?

Put him on.

Micky! [laughs]

You on your way?

A new house? What house?

In Aspen?

Why do you...

Okay. It's fine, Micky.
I have Julián with me, I'll tell him.

Tell José to get me
more information, okay?

Sure. Big hugs, bye.

[sighs] He asked me to make an offer
to buy some house in Aspen, today.

[music stops]

[jazz track plays]

- [Alex] Here he comes.
- Yeah, okay.

- Hi, Micky.
- [Luis] How are you, guys?

I brought the expenses for the office,
this bungalow and the house in Acapulco,

and your earnings for this past year.

- So you can get an idea where you stand...
- What do you want to listen to?

We got, uh... R&B,
or how about some jazz, huh?

And I have the child support as well,
and the tour with Fernández.

[music stops]

Who's that?

Oh, sorry.

The tour finances.

We have to cut some costs, Micky.

Don't tell me you came here
to talk about money.

- [Azucena sighs]
- No, Micky, no.

Of course not.

It's just that it's important that we...

Azucena, do you mind waiting?
We'll talk in a moment.

You know what?
You have all the costs, Micky.

Look them over, please.

- Thanks, Alex. Bye.
- [Alex] Azucena, please...

[sighs heavily]

Really, Micky,

it's important
that we look these things over.

- [jazz plays]
- [door closes]

And plus, we were meaning to talk to you...

about some candidates
for replacing your manager.

Who, then?
Another imbecile like that guy Daniel?

[sighs]

Someone has to represent you. [sighs]

Why not Azucena?

Azucena looks after your finances,

your promotion, your presence.

What?

Your socials, Micky, your presence online.

Facebook, Twitter, all the other stuff.

The point I'm trying to make

is that Azucena
is doing the work of five employees.

Well, then, tell me, buddy,
who do you wanna hire?

Well, everyone's favorite is...

she's a young Venezuelan woman.

Cristina Valecillos.

She's wonderful.
She has experience in TV and radio.

- She's perfect.
- Okay.

So how do you know Cristina?

She works here, with Balaguer.

She's just a few minutes away now.

So, she's working with Ambrosi?

She's... perfect for the position, Micky.

[sighs]

Did he recommend her?

[sighs]

- It doesn't matter who...
- Did he recommend her or not?

[sighs]

[ringing]

[sighs] Hello?

[Luis] Listen to me, you motherfucker.

If you ever contact anyone from my team,

I will make sure that you never work
in this industry ever again.

Micky, your brother Alex
got in touch with me.

All I did was give him a name.

I don't give a fuck if he called you or
if you ran into each other in the street.

Don't you ever get close to my people.

You don't have to worry about that.

I haven't talked to your people
in six years.

Let's keep it that way.

If I find out you've gotten close
to anything that's mine,

then I'll make sure you'll be sorry
for the rest of your life.

Are we clear?

[sighs]

[sighs]

[phone rings]

[Luis groans] I'm coming!

I'm coming!

[sighs]

[in English] Yeah? [sighs]

[man] Hi, I have a call for Mr. Gallego.

Oh.

Sure. Sure, um, put her on.

[sighs]

[woman] Is this Luis Miguel?

Mariah, hi!

Hi.

Listen, I heard you just put up an offer
to buy a house, here in Aspen.

I was wondering
if you'd be willing to reconsider.

How about this? I let you keep the house
if you have dinner with me tonight.

That's funny.

I mean it.

So, you'll back out on the offer
in exchange for having dinner?

Yeah, that's right.

[Mariah laughs]

So...

Where?

[chuckles] I know just the spot.

[band playing traditional music]

[laughter]

[in Spanish]
Sure you don't want any cheese?

It's the kind you like.

No, thanks, Mom.

So, what's new with you, my dear?

- You never call me.
- It's just, I'm so busy.

How's the job going? All right?

It's good.

I represent the biggest singer
in the Spanish market,

and invoice twice
what Dad's law firm does.

I'd say it's good.

Well, if you're satisfied,

then I'm satisfied.

- But come visit us more often.
- Welcome, my friend.

- That's the head of the Bank of Mexico.
- My friend!

- [laughs]
- It's so nice to see you here.

- Welcome to our home.
- Thank you.

- Forgive me for arriving so late.
- [father] Don't worry.

Let me introduce you.
Octavio, you know already.

- How are you, Octavio?
- Mr. Miguel.

- It's great to see you again.
- My congratulations for Grupo México.

- Much appreciated.
- It was in all the newspapers.

[Octavio] Thank you.

Gabriel, who has recently joined the firm.

It is really such an honor
to make your acquaintance.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Gabriel.

I'm happy the dynasty is expanding,

- so your old man can retire.
- Yes, indeed.

[laughter]

[father] And Patricio,

our youngest.

- [Mr. MIguel] Young Patricio, how are you?
- I'm well.

[mother]
Patricio is working on other projects,

but you already know that.

Ah! That's great. Very good.

[father] And this is Julián,
my brother Francisco's son.

- [Julián] We met at Yale.
- [Mr. Miguel] Of course!

- You're from the ITAM's company, right?
- [Julián] Yes, sir, that's correct.

[Mariah in English] So...

I heard you just sang at Frank's birthday.

I did.

Hmm.

- First time singing in English?
- Mm. Someone did their research.

- You bought my house.
- Mm, mm...

It's not your house yet.

Shall we order?

You look a bit nervous.
Maybe we should have a drink first.

[laughs] I think you're confusing
nervous with bored.

[laughs]

Are you always like this
when you like somebody?

- [chuckles]
- You're very sure of yourself, aren't you?

[Luis laughs]

So, what would you like to drink?

[Mr. Miguel in Spanish]
...in 1972, in Namibia.

Both Koreas.

- Carmen, I know my way around.
- [Carmen] Is that so?

- Then, they took me on safari.
- [Carmen] No!

- No!
- Yes, they did!

I've never returned there,

but that trip was something special.

Traveling in Asian luxury! [chuckles]

Black people serving us
in the middle of the jungle!

- [father] Sounds amazing!
- [Carmen] In the middle of it all?

- Or the middle of nowhere?
- [Mr. Miguel] Desert! Camping!

- [laughter]
- I'm sure we saw a lion.

And we went to one of those parks.

- A reserve, or something like that.
- [Carmen] Just amazing.

- [Mr. Miguel] You have to make an effort.
- [Carmen] I'm sure!

[Mr. Miguel] 'Cause you have
to travel on horseback.

And camels!

[sighs]

One more story about going to Korea,

and I'm going to shoot myself.

[chuckles]

[sighs]

We have to meet with Warner.

I wanna double the promotion budget
for the campaign on this one.

Pato, Julio won't give you one cent more.

Wanna bet?

Don't be a pussy, man.

[laughs, in English] Really,
when I started, I was this big

and I had this super sexy bowl-cut.

- Oh!
- You know, one of those.

- [laughs] No!
- Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah.

- My dad basically just forced me to sing.
- Really?

Gosh, I think I was
even younger when I started, you know?

Piano lessons every day
from four to eight with my mom.

- Uh-huh.
- Always the same tunes.

Over and over and over again.
It's... [sighs]

[sighs] Well, at least
you had mornings off.

What do you mean?

My dad and I
would start every day at 9 a.m.

Even on weekends.

Have lunch...

and then, um... rehearse
until I couldn't sing anymore.

Fuck!

Didn't your dad have a job or something?

[chuckles]

I was his job.

Hm.

But enough about me.
Your mom? You, uh, still get along?

Oh!

She... gets on my nerves,

but I owe her something, right?

I mean...

I even like playing the piano now, so...

Really?

See?

I listen to flamenco music and I just...
pyeow!

[both laugh]

I guess the point is just...

being okay with where you are.

You know?

- Cheers.
- Mmm.

Cheers.

All right.

Hmm.

You know? It's... it's not that I'm not...

okay with where I am now.

But sometimes... [chuckles]

It's not that I feel bored,
but I feel uninspired.

- Okay.
- Um, hi, excuse me. Sorry.

Um... Can I take a picture with you, please?

- Of course!
- [girl] Thank you.

- [chuckles]
- Um, actually, with her. Thank you.

Oh!

Yeah.

- And cheese...
- [both] Cheese.

[girl] Thank you.

- You're welcome. Bye.
- Thank you so much, bye.

[sighs]

[chuckles]

Hm?

I mean, listen, if you want a challenge,
then maybe you should come to the US.

Try to make it here.

[chuckles]

What? Your accent's, uh, fine.

- I know my English is more than fine, but...
- So?

Well, I... just...

don't wanna force it.

I want it to happen naturally

and have it be organic.

Well, have you ever tried,
like, the crossover thing?

Organically, I mean.

Well, I just did a duet with Sinatra, so...

[Mariah chuckles]

- Ah, I think so.
- Touché.

What about you?
Would you ever sing in Spanish?

Yeah.

If I had someone
to teach me Spanish, yeah, why not?

[chuckles] You know,
I think I know just the guy.

[laughs]

[man on radio] ...we covered
over 5,000 miles,

averaging 100 miles per day.

Manson says he wants to thank
all who donated to his cause,

and wants to remind us
that even though the journey is over,

the battle must continue.

[Doc in Spanish] Let's see.

It's really tough, this part.

Patience, it's a whole new language.

What do you mean, new?

I've been here
a whole year and I haven't learned at all.

Okay, time for dinner.

[Doc sighs]

I'm not that hungry.

It wasn't a suggestion.

So eat, it's getting cold.

[crickets chirping]

You really don't want your dinner?

I don't like it here.

[sighs] This is our home, Sergio.

Don't you want your brothers to come here?

[Gustavo] Cut!

[people start talking]

How was it, Garzón?

- [Gustavo] Divine, Micky, divine.
- Yeah?

You know, I think we should do
the last part one more time.

[Gustavo] No, no, we got it.
We're good. It's good.

- What do you mean, we got it?
- [Gustavo] Next shot.

Robles, come here.

José, hey!

Talk to me.

- All right?
- What's up?

One take, man? For real?

Micky, they're going to edit in
pieces of the cartoon, don't worry.

Pato, this is Disney.

- The budget isn't a problem here.
- The same thing I said to Gustavo.

But he said in these videos,

- it's important for the movie to shine.
- [laughs]

Man, you should have said something.

Here I am, thinking
it's a huge production, like a film, or...

Not a commercial.

- Gus didn't inform you?
- No.

He should've prepared you.

But you know, it's not for your single.
It's a video for the movie, man.

[sighs]

- I'm feeling bad for not letting you know.
- No, no, no.

It's not your fault at all. Come on, Joe.

[Gustavo] Great job, Micky. Ciao.

All good?

Yeah! You know how he can be.

[chuckles] You lying to me here, Patito?

- We still...
- It's a wrap till tomorrow.

All right.

[in English] Okay, guys! Wrap it up.

[Alex in Spanish]
He found out I talked to you,

and... you know.

I can't get him to take my phone calls.

[Mauricio] I'm sorry, Alex.

That's all I can say.

Don't be too upset.

He always does this. Stops talking to me.

- I guess I shouldn't ask about Cristina.
- No way, man.

No, no. He won't even consider her.

It's his loss. She would've been
perfect for him. Perfect.

Thanks for trying, though.

I don't know if I'd have done
the same if I was in your position.

- So, thank you.
- Yeah, no problem.

I still care about your brother, Alex.

Oh, yeah. One more thing, uh...

Who's with him?

[chuckles] Don't know.

His girlfriend?

I think she's his girlfriend.

Take care of him.

Don't leave him alone, Alex, please.

Don't worry.

It's gonna be all right.

Okay?

Sure. If you need anything,
you know where to find me.

You got it.

[sighs]

- [pop song playing]
- [Julio] Patricio!

- Come in.
- Hey, nice. Very nice.

- What do you think?
- Incredible. The best.

Beautiful studio, huh?

Yeah. So, now, then,
who's paying for all this?

[laughs]

Us, of course.

Perfect.

Just watch the finances, eh?

How's the video? All right?

Honestly, it's fantastic.

Glad to hear it. Congrats.

Yeah, thanks.

Julio,

I want Warner to put up
more to promote this record.

More? Hey, we're spending a lot
more on this than any other album.

I wanna double it.

You must be joking, right?

Look, Patricio, even if I wanted to do it,
Warner doesn't have the money.

Julio.

I don't know if you've heard,
but there's a financial crisis going on.

Ten percent more is all I can do.

Okay, 15, maximum.

I want double.

This record's going to be Luis Miguel's
biggest seller, and you know it.

Can't Aries put it up?

- Are you serious?
- No, I mean it.

Put up the money yourself
for the promotion,

and when the sales come in,
Warner will cover you.

We're not scared of a bit of risk,
unlike those at Warner,

but if the album doesn't sell,
it puts us right in the red.

But a minute ago, you were confident
it would sell, weren't you?

[sighs]

You want more money,
this is the only way, man.

[sighs]

[Luis] How's he doing?
How's it going at school?

[Doc] Well, he's been
having some trouble adapting.

And his private lessons?

Comin' along...

- [sighs]
- ...little by little.

Uh, put him on, okay?

We need to talk.

Micky, it's just that...

He doesn't want to.

- [footsteps]
- He what?

Uh... [sighs]

He... Just give me a second, okay?

It's Mr. Patricio Robles.

- I'll be right there.
- Yes.

Doc, I'll be there next week.

Tell Sergio...

I'm his brother,
and he can't stop talking to me now.

From Europe to Mexico to Latin America,

to the US in two weeks?

- Pato, this tour is just brutal.
- [chuckles]

I told you,
we've never done a promo tour like this.

[scoffs] Damn. This long? No. Never!

- And with these great musicians.
- [sighs]

And with all your own engineers,

so you can sound live just
exactly the way you sounded in the studio.

Uh, I don't know, it's... [sighs]

It's too demanding.

[sighs]

You wanted a challenge?

This is it, this tour.

[scoffs]

It's the first album being done for
Aries Productions, it's your company.

- It just has to explode now, Micky.
- Yeah.

And you're the CEO of my company,
so you should be a little more concerned.

[laughs]

That's why I convinced Warner
to give us more cash than ever.

[sighs] And they're not just covering
all the promotion.

They'll have the record on all the right
radio stations in Latin America.

You're gonna be number one regionally
in the first week.

What more do you want?

Julio approved this?

Yeah, but you have to do this promo tour.

[groans]

All right.

Say no more.

[sighs] Alex, I'm thinking
about moving to Los Angeles.

[laughs]

- For your new girlfriend, huh?
- She's not my girlfriend.

Not yet, she isn't.

[both laugh]

You should move to Spain.

Yeah, no way.

It'd be a brand-new start for both of us.

If I'm in Madrid,
I'll never see my brothers.

- And is that what you want?
- Yeah.

Yeah.

Then that's what's important.

Thanks.

- I'll miss you, though, man.
- You too, bro.

[sighs]

[Luis sighs]

Um...

[sighs] He won't come.

Why not?

[sighs]

All right, I'm staying
until he agrees to talk with me.

Want me to go up and try to convince him?

We talk all the time.

You should go up there, Micky.

I think it's best
if you talk to him alone.

Just you two.

Okay.

[knocking at door]

[Luis] Hey, Sergio, can I come in?

[door creaks]

Hey, look.

I brought your World Cup album
with the stamps.

You left it in Mexico.

[sighs] Sergio,
I know you're still angry with me...

but... [sighs]...you can't just
ignore me when I call,

or act this way when I come to visit you.

If you really wanted to be with me,
you wouldn't have sent me here.

[sighs]

Sergio...

you know perfectly well
that it's more complicated than that.

You didn't have to come, not really.

I wanted to come, to see you. I miss you.

You must know that my job is...
It... it's complicated.

Then just don't come and visit here,
and that's that.

You want that?

That's fine, Sergio.

You got it.

[door slams]

Try not to be too upset about Sergio.

He'll get past this.

I'll come by and talk to him this week.

- He's gonna forgive you.
- No, he doesn't have to do a thing.

I'm the one who's paying
his schooling, his clothes, and a house.

Yeah, but he's a kid, right?

- He doesn't understand that.
- He's gonna have to soon.

[sighs]

[Patricio] Julio suggested
that Aries pay for promotion.

[Julián] Please tell me you said no.

[Karla] Were you listening
when we talked about this the other day?

We barely have enough
to cover payroll, Patricio.

[Julián] Where are we going to get
millions of dollars to promote the album?

Shut the door, please, would you?

From the account of Luis Miguel.

We have access, don't we?

- So you're talking about stealing?
- No.

We're talking about simply borrowing money
to promote this record.

- What's the problem?
- [scoffs] Where do I even begin?

Karla,

we all better be on the same damn side,
or this will never work out.

[Karla sighs]

[Patricio] So I repeat,

what is the problem?

He won't even notice.

Take the money he was going to use
for the house in Aspen,

and buy spots on television,
on radio, and in the press.

I want it to be everywhere.

This is gonna be the number-one seller
in the career of Luis Miguel.
