Vida perfecta (2019–…): Season 2, Episode 3 - Cuando quieres lo que no tienes - full transcript

Gari wants his driver's license; Pablo isn't comfortable with the open relationship.

So, in summary,

- a vintage wedding.
- Mm-hmm.

With some big
neon lights, yeah?

- Yes.
- Full-on country?

- Yes.
- All right, great.

And at the end, dun-dun-dun,
the great performance

- of DJ Luna.
- Looks great.

He's the most sought after DJ
in Montseny.

- Success guaranteed.
- Oh, really?

Yes, people end up
jumping around and dancing.

- An open-air dance.
- Yes.



Sort of karaoke.
You choose, he plays it.

So, let me crunch the numbers.

Nine thousands euros.
Nice and round.

- What do you think?
- Well, that would be great.

- Right?
- Pretty busy schedule

right now, you know.

Don't know why,
but it seems like

lately everyone's
getting engaged.

It's like the song says,
"love is in the air."

Anyhow, I'm gonna
make the call.

In the meantime,
think about it.

- Sure thing.
- Okay?

Thanks.

He's pretty weird, huh?



What's the matter?

I mean, if you think
it's too much...

- What?
- We can have a civil wedding,

serve small bites
at Jaime's bar, that's it.

Yeah, right.
What are you saying?

I want a country style wedding.

I mean, who wouldn't
with DJ Luna

and the whole effing thing.

Then, I guess we need
to hire him now,

'cause he might go to Japan.

I could lick your tits
right here and now.

- Playing hard to get?
- Potentially.

Can you imagine actually living
in a big house like this?

Waking up to all
these little bird sounds?

- Oh, yeah.
- Nature all over.

-
- A river nearby.

- Please stop.
- God, a river nearby.

What if we bought a house?

Yeah, two, and a palace
in Scotland.

Okay, no,
but a small version.

Huh?

What?
We leave my place

and apply for a mortgage
that lasts 30 years,

and we definitely get it.

That's a joke, right?

I don't know.

And what about
your commune of hippies?

It doesn't make sense, does it,
to start a new project

with you and my friends
simultaneously?

Come on.

We can have
a vegetable garden,

and plant some tomatoes.

And eggplants.
I love those.

And eggplants.

If you love them,
all the eggplants.

- You know what?
- What?

I could eat your pussy
right now.

You need anything?

No, we're good.

- Okay.
- Thanks. Bye.

Fuck, what a pain in the ass.

Oh, fuck,
he got us.

All right,
come on, time's up.

Let's correct them, okay?

All right, bye.

Sorry.

See ya.

Uh, Gari?

I wouldn't take
the test this Friday.

But there's still
three days left.

Yeah, but you're still getting
many of the answers wrong.

Maybe you could--
you could take some tutoring.

I'm not implying anything,
just lots of people do it.

Look at Antonio--

10 wrong answers,
two more than you.

I mean, at least
you got an excuse.

- You're an idiot.
- All right.

Bye.

Okay, so...

Well, okay, uh...

I won't take it on Friday,
but in two weeks, I will.

- Okay.
- I don't wanna wait anymore.

- Perfect.

- Okay.
- Well, goodbye.

- All right, bye.
- Have a good day.

- See you later.

What?

Hi.

- Xosé, how are you?
- María?

I can't talk right now,
I'm in a bind.

A teacher left
us stranded

and I have to fill in
for him.

I'll stop by later,
but I gotta go now.

- Okay, okay.
- All right, bye.

Bye.

Crossroads are the...

- MARÍ
- Hi, Gari,
I was calling to see

if you wanted to give
Juanito a bath.

It's been days
since you last came by,

and I know you're busy

with the test,
but I don't know.

My therapist said
it'd be good for us

to take swimming classes
together with Juanito.

So, please, let me know.

I'd like for you
to come along, all right?

-
- Aren't you gonna reply?

- No.
- That's a shame.

Going to the pool is awesome.

Yeah, yeah, I'm...
I'm really bummed.

But the test is in two weeks,
and it's not going well.

But you can stop for an hour
to spend time with your kid.

Imagine it, the two of you
swimming like this.

Imagine it.

Can't you imagine it?

Yeah, but...
I'm not joking, you know.

If I don't get my--
my driving's license,

I can't be a good dad.
Do you understand that,

- you know?
- I know.

- I do understand.
- Okay.

I know you wanna go.

I know it
because I know that look.

-
- I know it.

Okay, fine.
Okay, I'm going.

I'm going, but now,
will you let me study

- for a little while?
- Yes.

Okay, thanks.
Thank you.

- MARÍ
- Hey, you know
you have a nephew, right?

Uh, María, I'm up
to my eyeballs, dude.

Well, anyway, that's not
why I'm calling you.

You're on speaker.

Hi, Xosé here.

- Oh, hey.
- Listen, how would you like

to come and give
painting lessons where I work?

So, painting for
the handicapped?

Dude.
We say neurodiversity

or people who are neurodiverse--

Okay, okay, I'm sorry.

I'll say people
who are neurodiverse.

It's just for three weeks
when the teacher's gonna be out.

You can't tell me no
because of the store.

- You don't work Fridays.
- I'm not sure about it, María.

Besides, you know
I've given up painting now.

MARÍA:It's teaching to paint.
- XOSÉ:
- Right.

MARÍA:It's just three
Fridays. - Yeah, no.

How's María?

- Fine, she's fine.
- Yeah?

Esther, will you come
and see us dance?

- Excuse me, it's a performance.
- Performance, huh?

- Yes.
- No, it's not like that at all.

Don't exaggerate like that.

- It's not a performance.
- I think it is, it's outside.

No, the teacher said
we could have an outdoor lesson

- in the Parc de la Ciutadella.
- That's cool, right?

- There's about 40 of us.
- Forty, yeah, you know.

I mean, that's a lot,
you'll see.

There'll be three
other groups there.

- Yeah, and when is it?
- At 7:00.

- On Friday.
- At 7:00.

- Mm-hmm.
- Shit, you know what?

- What?
- I just agreed

to teach a painting class
on Friday for people

- who are neurodiverse.
- Really?

- Oh, that's great.
- That's wonderful.

Mm-hmm, that's why
my sister called me, babe.

- Hey, that's great.
- Mm-hmm.

Social conscience
is important.

- That's amazing.
- Of course, honey, I got you.

Well, part of it is that
my nephew's father

has a disability,
so that made me aware of it.

It's really made me connect
with altruism, doing good.

I mean, I'm really affected

- by it now.
- I know.

That's great.
Hear, hear.

To sensitivity.

May it always
be there for us.

Morning.

Morning.

Mind if I take advantage of you?

- Okay.
-

Will you watch
Juanito for a sec

while I take a shower?

Not what I expected you to say.

Mm.
No, thanks.

And if he cries?

With you,
he never cries.

Don't worry,
I won't be long.

XOSÉ: Hey, it's already
pretty late.

MARÍSure you don't wanna stay
for breakfast?

I don't have time.

I have to meet with students.

And I wanna talk
to Gari.

- Why?
- I'm gonna tell him

we're seeing each other.

- Oh.
- Okay?

- Yeah.
- I don't want him

to imagine things.

What things
would he imagine?

Well, he's really touchy

about the driver's license
and he obsesses.

Right.

Well, I'm sure
it'll be okay.

- Tell me how it goes.
- Yeah.

Don't want coffee, do you?

Good morning,
my beautiful wife.

Morning.

Thanks for letting me
sleep in.

- Pay me back next week.
- Mm.

I can pay you
some other way.

Yeah, right, that's bold.

Paula.
Paula, let's go.

What's up?

What did we say about
the volume of the music?

- That lower is better.
- Mm-hmm.

Come on, go get your backpack,
go get it.

Yes, Mom.

- What is this?
- You look beautiful today.

What is going on?

Hey.
Hey, I'm running late.

- I love you, honey, that's it.
- I love you too, baby.

- I love you too.
Bye.

Bye, sweetie.

Mwah!

Come on, hurry.
- Okay, got everything?

Yeah.

Here we go.

One, two, and...

Ouch, ouch.
God.

- Paula?
-

- Can you hear me?
-

MARÍA:Hi.
- Mary.

Remind me why I can't meet
the Wallapop guy again.

It'd be cheating accordingto
the pact you have with
Pablo.

Yeah, but see, what happened
was we didn't screw last time

because we had no condom,
so that doesn't count, right?

Uh, he made you squirt.
That's sex.

If we're late,
it'll be your fault.

No, darling,
we'll be okay.

Was Paula there
the whole time?

- Call you later, okay? Bye-bye.
- You're crazy.

So, 30...

Thirty years.

Six times five.

- And how is work?
- Fine.

But, well, yesterday I bumped

into a customer's
chlamydia plant and broke it.

They reprimanded me, but, good.

- That's normal, though.
- No big deal.

- A lot of plants get broken.
- And the driving test?

- It's fine.
- Yeah?

Know how many tests I do a day?

- How many?
- At least 50.

That's a lot.
Fifty, really?

- Whoo...
- And?

- Uh, I still make mistakes.
- Yeah?

I have to study
a lot more.

The exam is still
two weeks away.

There's a support group
at the center.

- You can go.
- Yeah, but I don't need it.

- I can manage.
- You sure?

Yeah. Absolutely.

You know, it's always fine
to ask for help.

You're a pain, you know that?

I know I'm a pain,
but you get too stressed out.

True, but you're a pain anyway.

- You're right.
- I don't get

so stressed out, okay?

All right,
I have to go.

- Can I go?
- No, wait.

I need to tell you something.

What's up?

You've got a call.

Is that my son's toy?

Why do you have
Juanito's cuddly toy?

- No clue.
- Do you see Juanito?

It's what I wanted
to tell you, yes.

But only because
I'm seeing María.

You see my son
more than I do?

- Listen to me.
- I gave him that.

Can I have that back now?

- Give it to me.
- Here, man.

- All right, thanks.
- But can we talk?

- No, I'm going to study.
- Gari.

- Hang on.
- I'm going to study.

Don't go yet.
Gari. Gari!

Hi, it's Gari.
Is Lidia there?

Just want to say
that I'm finally ready

to take the knowledge test
next Friday.

Okay, but put me down,
all right?

♪ If you're happy
and you know it ♪

♪ And you really
want to show it ♪

♪ If you're happy
and you know it ♪

♪ Clap your hands ♪

Come on, pick it all up, honey,
and grab your backpack, okay?

- Okay.
- Otherwise, you and Papa

- will be late.
- All right,

because today I have
lots of contracts to sign

because I'll be a great lawyer
like you.

Right, you sign your contracts,
and Mom and I...

will sign ours.

- Come on.
- All right, I'll go get

- my backpack.
- One, two, three.

Maybe I can make it
to the gym.

All right, shall we leave
the book here?

- No?
- And our contract?

- What about it?
- Well, how's it going?

- Fine, and you?
- Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine.

- Mom, need some water?
- No, honey, I don't need water.

- Okay.
- I'm off, okay?

- I'm already late, so...
- Okay.

- We'll talk more tonight.
- Yeah, sounds good.

- Bye, sweetheart.
- See you later.

- Bye.
- Bye, Martina.

Hey, Papa, do you want
a glass of water?

Yeah.

Remember, you can check
the results online

after 6:00 today.

You may begin.

-
- You've got 10 minutes left.

MARÍA:Hi, Cris.
- Hi, hon.

- What?
- Green light, baby.

- Green light for what? - To
see Wallapop guy again.

Oh, hey!
Don't post any stories tonight

because I told Pablo
I'd be having dinner with you.

Didn't we agree
that was a one-time thing?

Honey, I know it's hard
to understand, okay?

But Pablo and I have been
together for so long.

We agreed on this together.

He's doing it too.
We're both doing it.

You think Pablo's not doing it?

Why don't you try
couples therapy

instead of doing experiments?

Come on, Mary.

I go to his house,

he puts it in me
for a little while,

and then I go home,
and that's it.

- [laughing]- There you
go with that giggle.

- What giggle?
- The one you get

when you obsess
about a guy.

It's not an obsession,
I'm just having fun, that's all.

I'm gonna go to his place,
fuck him,

- then have dinner with you.
- That's not happening.

Just wait.
You wanna bet on it?

Dinner, Japanese.

- All right, okay.
- Five star.

I'll be here
to catch you, my friend.

Okay, hon.
I love you.

Love you too.

Hello, good morning.

I'm looking
for an indoor plant.

Something nice and leafy,

doesn't need much watering,
and likes bright light.

- It's...
- So sorry.

Excuse me a second.

Where's Carlos?

Who are you?

Uh, hey, how are you?
I'm Esther.

I'm your new teacher,
so come in if you want, and...

- Hi, where's Carlos?
- Carlos?

Carlos isn't here right now.

- He'll be back.
- He's sick.

No, he's not sick,
he's okay, just...

Esther!
What are you doing here?

Hey, Richi, surprise,
I'm your new professor, dude.

- Hey!
- Hi, where's Carlos?

- Carlos isn't...
- He's sick.

All right, guys,
truth is Carlos

went to Turkey to get
a hair transplant, okay?

He went to Turkey
so he could get dreadlocks

like Bob Mayler.

I wish, dude.

Your classmates
are lame asses.

Not coming out

to celebrate the first day?

I don't drink.

If I do, I end up
getting epileptic fits.

Oh.
Well, in that case,

I guess I'll just
drink both, huh?

How come you keep
checking your phone?

My boyfriend,
he won't answer.

Why not?

- Don't know.
- Spit it out.

Artist to artist,
let me tell you

I'm a fucking awesome listener.
Go on.

I love Julia, dude.
I'm in awe of her.

I totally love her.
We have the most incredible sex.

She restores stuff.
I like watching.

I get all wet
when I'm watching her work.

What are we doing
in the country, I mean...

Just look at her all day
and make, like,

embroidered cushions, or...

Mortgage.
A 30-year mortgage.

Have we lost our minds entirely?

Don't you think
the word "mortgage"

is super disgusting?

Well, it's a word
that comes from--

No, no, no, no.
No, no, no. No, no.

Just let me get
a word in, all right?

You mortgage your life.
You mortgage your car.

You mortgage your pussy.

I mean, who even
invented that word, dude?

Marriage, mortgage.
Then there's a lawnmower...

Hang on.
Do you wanna tie the knot?

Because it's important
that you know.

And it's also
important that she knows.

You need to talk to her.

She needs to know
what you want.

You're exactly right.
I'll talk to her.

I'll tell her.

- Hello.
- Hi.

Wait, wait.

- I have to watch the rice.
- What?

Yeah, I'm cooking you
a delicious meal today.

- Are you?
- Uh-huh.

I am preparing a selection
of typical Indonesian dishes.

I'm making cap cai,
nasi campur,

and gado-gado.

I think we could have
something else, right?

Save that for dessert.

By the way,
I made you kolak,

which is banana
with coconut milk.

Today, I want you to have
all sorts of orgasms.

Mary, I won't make it
for dinner, okay, hon?

So, I'll talk to you later.
Love you so much.

- MARÍ
- I knew it!
You told me

you'd just get there,
fuck him, and leave!

Then we went into a café,
there was a sign,

"pulled pork from Léon."

- Okay.
- I look at my buddy

and say, "But who is actually
gonna eat this?"

I mean, who's gonna have
to drag the pig?

- No. No!
- That was the day I found out

"pulled pork" doesn't mean
dragging a pig.

So, you were taught
by priests, or what?

Yes.

And they taught you
how to make a girl squirt?

No, no.

That, I learned
in the school of life.

- Ah, the school of life.
- Yeah.

- Are you cold?
- A bit, yeah.

I'll get you a blanket
and bring dessert.

Here you go.

Hey, I'm gonna
head out, okay?

One of the kids
has a fever.

I'll feel bad if I stay.

Okay.
Want me to come?

- No, it's fine.
- You sure?

Yeah.

Okay, well,
we'll be in touch.

Mm-hmm.

What are you doing
in bed already?

I really did my back in.

It-- it hurts a lot,
and so I took two, um...

two diazepam.

- You what?
- Doing line dancing and...

I left you
an eggplant pie

in the-- in the oven.

And a surprise
for your painting class.

But you said
your back is hurt.

Do you want me to give you
like a massage

- or something, or...
-

Julia?

And, you know...

Hey.

- XOSÉ:
- Gari, it was
a misunderstanding.

We were gonna tell you.

Oh, come on, Gari,
we're buddies.

Quit saying that.
We're not buddies!

We're not friends, you're--
you're just my counselor.

I'm the disabled person
you're counseling, okay?

- Gari...
- I don't wanna talk

to you anymore,
because I'm drunk.

Goodbye.

Fuck.

Come on, drink.
Want it?

Just a little.

Hi, hon.

How's María?

A mess.

I fixed dinner
and put her to bed.

- And you guys?
- Good.

They decided to play
with each toy for five minutes

so they wouldn't be sad.

Sad?
Who, the kids?

- No, the toys.
- Oh.

We'll tidy up tomorrow, okay?

No, I don't mind.

It'll help me
clear my head.

María was super intense.

Hey.

Yeah?

I want to end
our agreement.

Paula's growing up,

and it's very hard
to hide it from her

so it doesn't affect her.

She asked me
if we had more partners.

- She asked you that as well?
- Yeah.

So, this is about Paula.

No, Cris.
About us as well.

All day long
I'm picturing things.

It's really getting to me.

How about you?

I don't want this
to end up hurting us,

and I'm suffering.

No, I don't want you
suffering.

Should we be
a normal couple again

and cancel the contract?

Lawyer?

Okay.

Yes.

Yes?

I love you.

No, I'll go.
It's my turn today.

You okay?
