Vote for Juan (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 8 - Episode #1.8 - full transcript
VOTE FOR JUAN
Juan, I don't know how
many times I've phoned you,
I don't know if something's
happened to you.
I'd rather hope it has,
because the news
starts in 27 minutes
and if you don't turn up
something WILL happen to you.
- Have you found him?
- Two years stuck behind his ass
and you have to lose him today.
You've known him all your life,
you know where he likes going,
his habits, his routines...
We're looking for Juan,
not the Iberian lynx.
- Any news on the vote count?
- No, nor on the minister.
- How odd.
- Define "odd".
Juan suddenly disappears and the winner
should've been announced already.
- I don't like this.
- Define "I don't like this".
- Vallejo.
- You been to the loo?
Twice, I've got loose
bowels with all this stress.
To look for Juan.
- No, not for that.
- What are you waiting for?
Right.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Have you seen Juan?
- Yes, have you?
Where is he?
He's with the "couch"
preparing his speech.
The "couch"?
That's "sofa" in English.
- What's Juan doing with a sofa?
- A "coach" is a personal instructor.
Sofa is "couch".
You don't know where he is.
Quite frankly?
- Yes.
- He's with the coach.
Couch.
See you later.
See you.
Do you think he would've
gone without telling us?
Good idea, I'll
check the car park.
Where the hell is Juan?
- How are you? You look nervous.
- I'm not nervous, I'm angry.
How are you? You look angry.
The president has been in
his office for 20 minutes.
- Really?
- You didn't know?
Of course I knew.
Located!
- Your bag, Carmen, it's been located.
- Really? Great.
- Great.
- Yes.
Very good.
Tell your bag to be
with the president
within three minutes,
otherwise I'll take it to the
Alto de San Isidro district,
I'll open it, turn it upside
down and tip out its contents
so the junkies
can fight over it.
A very pleasant metaphor, Luis.
Three minutes.
- Where was he?
- In the toilets, he won't come out.
What do we do now?
Try to convince him he's capable
of facing this situation,
What situation?
We don't know yet?
You sure you're all right?
What's happened?
What?
- Nothing. The president wants to see me.
- I know.
Where did you dig out that tie?
It's my lucky tie.
- Do you want a mint tea?
- No.
Macarena,
the results aren't out
and the president wants
to see me in his office.
There's a name for
this in Logroño.
Meeting.
I think I've won the
primary elections.
Don't you want to be president?
- Of course we do!
- Hold on, hold on.
One thing is wanting, being
is a different matter.
- So then?
- What do I tell my wife?
We'll take it step by step.
We'll talk about this first,
and a possible divorce later.
But what do I do? I told
her I was going to Logroño.
You didn't know you'd win.
I haven't won though.
A bloody pen drive has won!
No, there was no ballot paper
to vote for a pen drive.
And for your information,
at the polling station
a couple said you're the best
thing that's happened to the party.
They had your T-shirt on.
Right!
They were my parents,
they've come to meet you.
Fuck.
- Juan. Juan.
- What?
If you go back to Logroño, there will
come a day, and it won't be a sunny day,
or at the weekend, more like
a shit Tuesday in February,
when you'll regret it.
And just remember,
every day in Logroño
is like a shit
Tuesday in February.
Right. Sorry, excuse me.
Besides, we still
don't know if I've won.
- What are you waiting for?
- Right.
- Talk to the president.
- Perfect, sure.
- Exactly.
- Sure, I'll just...
- Hey!
- What?
Don't sign anything.
- No.
- Consult us first.
- Do you want to go on your own?
- Yes, let me do it on my own.
I'll go with him.
- Please.
- Yes.
- Minster.
- Let go.
In the toilets, were you insinuating
we've won the primary elections?
I wasn't insinuating.
So then, that's good.
We're still with the party.
- Why are you following me?
- Did you catch the double meaning?
No, you didn't. I don't
mean still with the party,
- but still with the party.
- What?
Obviously, we're still with
the party but what's important
is the party.
Juan, where were you?
Not now, darling.
The journalists keep coming
and saying this is odd.
Our marriage?
Not announcing the winner.
You haven't won, have you?
Me? Won what?
The primary elections.
The primary elections?
How could I...?
The results aren't out and
no one is saying a word.
It sounds like you've won.
If you're so clever, why are
you doing vocational training?
- I know it's impossible, but who knows!
- Impossible? Why? Not totally.
There are people
out there saying
I'm the best thing
that happened.
- They don't sleep with you.
- Fifteen minutes, Minister.
- Fifteen minutes.
- Fifteen minutes for what?
For the news to
start. I have to go.
Fourteen minutes now.
With the couch?
The what?
Time flies, Minister.
- Thirteen minutes.
- Sorry.
Juan.
- You need anything?
- Sorry?
- Hungry? Thirsty? Tranquillisers?
- No.
- What are you doing here?
- My wife and daughter fear the worst.
- That you're going back to Logroño?
- That I'm not going back.
If I've won, I've
got a big problem.
If you return to Logroño, you'll
have two. One of them really big.
- Juan, eighteen minutes to go.
- Wasn't it thirteen?
Well...
Okay, okay!
- May I?
- Of course. Come in, Juan.
- Mr. President.
- Don't call me Mr. President, dammit!
- Call me Antonio.
- First of all...
sorry about the pen drive, perhaps
it was slightly misunderstood.
Why be sorry?
I like what you did.
I attacked and you
defended your position.
Besides, for the first time, I
saw that spark you'd been missing
to make it in
high-level politics.
You think so?
And the party members
have realised that too.
Now, I'd like you to manage
- to rise to the occasion.
- What occasion?
Look...
You've won.
The primary elections?
Congratulations.
- I demand a recount.
- He said you've won.
- So, I'm the Secretary General?
- No, I didn't say that.
I said you've won the
primary elections.
- You feeling all right?
- Yes, yes.
Yes, very well. Very well.
Are you two all right?
Look, I'll be honest with you.
I think the best thing for the
party is to maintain the status quo.
Of course, but for that you need
to have won the primaries, Toño.
They are just primary elections.
It's an internal party mechanism.
We audit them ourselves.
Strictly confidential.
- Of course.
- We have to find a way
for us all to come out on
top and feeling comfortable.
Of course. And what do I gain?
You'll continue as
Minister of Agriculture.
- I gain nothing then.
- Well, what do you want exactly?
To be president for three or four
months? Is that what you want?
The party won't take much
longer in finding a way
to get rid of you. They
could use a pen drive
or anything whatsoever,
but they won't take much longer.
Just one thing,
when you say the party, I
take it you mean you two?
Juanito, I wouldn't like
to be in your shoes.
No, I don't like being
in my shoes either.
It's just that...
I'm getting to like this.
This isn't quite like my shoes.
I've never seen you like this.
Like this?
You can't do away with me.
I was about to go to Logroño.
What do you want, Juan?
I've already got what I want.
The question is, Mr. President:
what do you want?
What I want is for you to take five
minutes to think it over carefully.
Twelve minutes to the
news, Mr. President.
I have to talk it
over with my team.
Where are you all?
What are you doing here?
The journalists are sniffing
around, we needed somewhere quiet.
I've won the primaries.
But the president wants to
carry on being the president.
They're threatening me
with blackmail even.
They're scared shitless.
I want to see them
like this a bit longer.
- We've nine minutes left.
- No, no.
Much longer.
Define "much longer".
A year and a half.
What's left of the
term of office.
Vice-president.
- They won't let you.
- They've no choice.
But first, I wanted to ask you
if you want to come with me.
Are you with me or not?
What do you think?
You're not?
Of course...
we're with you.
Eight minutes to go,
Vice-president.
We've drawn up a new electoral
act. All you have to do is sign it.
Vice-president.
That's non-negotiable.
I'm not negotiating.
Okay, Juan.
Just bloody sign it.
One more thing.
I want a house.
A house like yours with
three bedrooms and a pool.
That doesn't come into
the party's plans.
You winning the primary
elections didn't either.
Six minutes, Mr. President.
Sign it, I'll wait in
the conference room.
I'll tell you something.
It may seem strange,
but I need to tell you.
During the past two years
as minister,
when I got home I
had two options.
One:
recall how you humiliated me
in front of my team and cry.
- We've no time for this, Juan.
- Or...
This will sound ridiculous,
imagine it was me
who humiliated you.
Just think, how silly.
It helped me to relax.
And I'd sleep like a baby.
As of tomorrow, things will be
different between us, I promise.
You remind me of
myself with my wife.
Which is why I
don't believe you.
Sit down.
Sit down, man, please.
Don't take it the wrong way.
It may be nonsense to you, but
it will do me a lot of good.
Does it hurt?
I'm fine.
It will hurt.
Not now, but it will hurt later.
In a few years it
will hurt much more.
That's the trouble
with these things,
they have long-term effects.
Don't tell anyone about this.
- Don't worry, I didn't intend to.
- Good.
I'll be the one to tell.
I must go, I have a country
to "vice-presidentiate".
I don't think that's the
right expression, Juan.
Luis, get into the habit
of agreeing I'm right.
Minister?
Are you ready?
Not yet.
We've only got four minutes.
- Where's Macarena?
- There's no time.
I'm the vice-president,
there's time for whatever
I bloody well like.
I don't know, it just came out.
It came over well, right?
- She's on the roof terrace.
- Good.
- What are you doing here?
- I'm done.
I need you to write something.
- What for?
- For Paula and Eva.
- I only write political speeches.
- This is politics.
I don't know how to ask them to
stick with me. If they leave,
- it's all over.
- Juan, you have to be yourself.
I will, but with something
you've written for me, as always.
Sorry, I can't
help you this time.
- How much do you want?
- What?
I'll pay whatever you ask for.
I'll let you off
the car-park ticket.
You remember that?
If you write something,
I'll forget it.
- It wasn't even twenty euros!
- True, I'm the vice-president.
You can squeeze more out of me.
- No, Juan.
- Please.
No!
The adverts are on. The news
starts in three minutes.
- They're waiting for you.
- I need a minute.
- You've had a minute, Juan.
- Another minute.
- When are we going?
- That's what I wanted to tell you.
- Juan, don't scare me.
- What?
Tell me we're going to Logroño.
- We're going to Logroño.
- Thank goodness.
For Christmas.
No, Juan, please.
You can't do this.
- You promised the three of us would go.
- Please.
I promised
we'd be together.
I don't want to live here.
- This environment isn't good for her.
- Let's go, Mum.
- Yes.
- Sorry. Please, wait.
I've won.
I've won, but I
can't tell anyone.
Why not?
In two minutes, I'll tell the
whole of Spain that I've lost.
That's the same as losing.
Please, I swear, things will
be different from now on.
All the best, Juan.
You're right in leaving. This
is going to get very unpleasant.
- What is?
- Juan has challenged the party
and from now on they'll do
all the dirty tricks they can
to ruin him, you'll be better off
staying out of it, in Logroño.
We'll send you
what's left of him.
- What have you done, Juan?
- It doesn't matter.
I just asked them to arrange
things so I could be with you both.
I've asked for a big
house, with a pool...
The type you don't
find in Logroño.
Can I have a bodyguard?
- Only if you're an ISIS target.
- Can I be an ISIS target?
Is it true what Macarena said?
The news has started, quick.
Mr. Carrasco. I'd like
to introduce my parents.
- Juanvi and...
- Excuse me.
As soon as the summary is
over, we're on. Twenty seconds.
- Here we are, Juanito.
- That's right, I'm still with the party.
That tie?
Did you catch the double meaning?
I'm still with the party.
That tie isn't fit
for a vice-president.
Ten seconds, I'll let you know.
- Take it off.
- Seriously?
Yes, yes.
To be vice-president, you
have to look like one.
- Well groomed.
- What about you?
- I'm already the president.
- Of course.
That's better.
It may sound silly, but
just a moment ago, I thought
you wanted to be president.
Don't I want to be?
You signed the
papers, didn't you?
This is the start
of a year and a half
during which I'll do all I
can to wipe you off the map.
Five, four, three,
two, one. Let's go.
I'll get you, Toño.
Mr. President, you're on.
Thank you.
Hello and good
evening to you all.
It's a pleasure to
stand before you
to inform you of our
primary election results.
What is truly
important is the party.
In these primary elections...
to offer the Spanish people
the best of politics...
- Another?
- You sure?
Hey, buddy!
Come here.
Bring two more gin and tonics.
And...
This is shit, bring some
sugared cashew nuts.
- With cardamom.
- Yes, with cardamom.
Did you seriously think
we'd get this far?
We got lost on the underground
the first time we came to Madrid.
When was that?
You weren't even mayor.
Yes, some Peruvian guy playing
one of those flutes helped us.
Coming back from the Tourism
Trade Fair in La Rioja.
- I didn't even know who you were.
- Those Peruvians play the flute well.
That's quite something...
We've caused quite a stir, Juan.
Think about what
you're going to say,
toasts here end up coming true.
I'm sure about this.
In a year and a half,
we'll be in the Moncloa.
You'll go to the Moncloa
with your family.
- Thanks for lending me a hand.
- No worries.
You sometimes drive me crazy.
Almost always.
But here I am.
I like being here.
When we came to Madrid for the
first time, it was in 1999.
And it wasn't a Peruvian guy,
it was a junkie from Jaén.
I don't know what
would've become of me
if I hadn't got lost with you.
I don't know.
Nothing of any interest to
anyone has ever happened to me,
but it was important to me.
And in everything, everything,
you've been close by.
Thank you.
But sometimes the
most fervent promises
Only try to hide
That love is fading
Love, love, my love
You should accept me as I am
If you see I don't like talking
Learn to interpret my absence
Love, love, my love
It's all I can say
Loving is more than
making someone laugh
your life of love
Sometimes, words
are hardly needed
When it comes to talking
Simply about love
And a gesture may
even go unawares
It may be more important
Than an oath before God
Love, love, my love
You should accept me as I am
If you see I don't like talking
Learn to interpret my absence
Love, love, my love
Juan, I don't know how
many times I've phoned you,

Six minutes, Mr. President.
Sign it, I'll wait in
the conference room.
I'll tell you something.
It may seem strange,
but I need to tell you.
During the past two years
as minister,
when I got home I
had two options.
One:
recall how you humiliated me
in front of my team and cry.
- We've no time for this, Juan.
- Or...
This will sound ridiculous,
imagine it was me
who humiliated you.
Just think, how silly.
It helped me to relax.
And I'd sleep like a baby.
As of tomorrow, things will be
different between us, I promise.
You remind me of
myself with my wife.
Which is why I
don't believe you.
Sit down.
Sit down, man, please.
Don't take it the wrong way.
It may be nonsense to you, but
it will do me a lot of good.
Does it hurt?
I'm fine.
It will hurt.
Not now, but it will hurt later.
In a few years it
will hurt much more.
That's the trouble
with these things,
they have long-term effects.
Don't tell anyone about this.
- Don't worry, I didn't intend to.
- Good.
I'll be the one to tell.
I must go, I have a country
to "vice-presidentiate".
I don't think that's the
right expression, Juan.
Luis, get into the habit
of agreeing I'm right.
Minister?
Are you ready?
Not yet.
We've only got four minutes.
- Where's Macarena?
- There's no time.
I'm the vice-president,
there's time for whatever
I bloody well like.
I don't know, it just came out.
It came over well, right?
- She's on the roof terrace.
- Good.
- What are you doing here?
- I'm done.
I need you to write something.
- What for?
- For Paula and Eva.
- I only write political speeches.
- This is politics.
I don't know how to ask them to
stick with me. If they leave,
- it's all over.
- Juan, you have to be yourself.
I will, but with something
you've written for me, as always.
Sorry, I can't
help you this time.
- How much do you want?
- What?
I'll pay whatever you ask for.
I'll let you off
the car-park ticket.
You remember that?
If you write something,
I'll forget it.
- It wasn't even twenty euros!
- True, I'm the vice-president.
You can squeeze more out of me.
- No, Juan.
- Please.
No!
The adverts are on. The news
starts in three minutes.
- They're waiting for you.
- I need a minute.
- You've had a minute, Juan.
- Another minute.
- When are we going?
- That's what I wanted to tell you.
- Juan, don't scare me.
- What?
Tell me we're going to Logroño.
- We're going to Logroño.
- Thank goodness.
For Christmas.
No, Juan, please.
You can't do this.
- You promised the three of us would go.
- Please.
I promised
we'd be together.
I don't want to live here.
- This environment isn't good for her.
- Let's go, Mum.
- Yes.
- Sorry. Please, wait.
I've won.
I've won, but I
can't tell anyone.
Why not?
In two minutes, I'll tell the
whole of Spain that I've lost.
That's the same as losing.
Please, I swear, things will
be different from now on.
All the best, Juan.
You're right in leaving. This
is going to get very unpleasant.
- What is?
- Juan has challenged the party
and from now on they'll do
all the dirty tricks they can
to ruin him, you'll be better off
staying out of it, in Logroño.
We'll send you
what's left of him.
- What have you done, Juan?
- It doesn't matter.
I just asked them to arrange
things so I could be with you both.
I've asked for a big
house, with a pool...
The type you don't
find in Logroño.
Can I have a bodyguard?
- Only if you're an ISIS target.
- Can I be an ISIS target?
Is it true what Macarena said?
The news has started, quick.
Mr. Carrasco. I'd like
to introduce my parents.
- Juanvi and...
- Excuse me.
As soon as the summary is
over, we're on. Twenty seconds.
- Here we are, Juanito.
- That's right, I'm still with the party.
That tie?
Did you catch the double meaning?
I'm still with the party.
That tie isn't fit
for a vice-president.
Ten seconds, I'll let you know.
- Take it off.
- Seriously?
Yes, yes.
To be vice-president, you
have to look like one.
- Well groomed.
- What about you?
- I'm already the president.
- Of course.
That's better.
It may sound silly, but
just a moment ago, I thought
you wanted to be president.
Don't I want to be?
You signed the
papers, didn't you?
This is the start
of a year and a half
during which I'll do all I
can to wipe you off the map.
Five, four, three,
two, one. Let's go.
I'll get you, Toño.
Mr. President, you're on.
Thank you.
Hello and good
evening to you all.
It's a pleasure to
stand before you
to inform you of our
primary election results.
What is truly
important is the party.
In these primary elections...
to offer the Spanish people
the best of politics...
- Another?
- You sure?
Hey, buddy!
Come here.
Bring two more gin and tonics.
And...
This is shit, bring some
sugared cashew nuts.
- With cardamom.
- Yes, with cardamom.
Did you seriously think
we'd get this far?
We got lost on the underground
the first time we came to Madrid.
When was that?
You weren't even mayor.
Yes, some Peruvian guy playing
one of those flutes helped us.
Coming back from the Tourism
Trade Fair in La Rioja.
- I didn't even know who you were.
- Those Peruvians play the flute well.
That's quite something...
We've caused quite a stir, Juan.
Think about what
you're going to say,
toasts here end up coming true.
I'm sure about this.
In a year and a half,
we'll be in the Moncloa.
You'll go to the Moncloa
with your family.
- Thanks for lending me a hand.
- No worries.
You sometimes drive me crazy.
Almost always.
But here I am.
I like being here.
When we came to Madrid for the
first time, it was in 1999.
And it wasn't a Peruvian guy,
it was a junkie from Jaén.
I don't know what
would've become of me
if I hadn't got lost with you.
I don't know.
Nothing of any interest to
anyone has ever happened to me,
but it was important to me.
And in everything, everything,
you've been close by.
Thank you.
But sometimes the
most fervent promises
Only try to hide
That love is fading
Love, love, my love
You should accept me as I am
If you see I don't like talking
Learn to interpret my absence
Love, love, my love
It's all I can say
Loving is more than
making someone laugh
your life of love
Sometimes, words
are hardly needed
When it comes to talking
Simply about love
And a gesture may
even go unawares
It may be more important
Than an oath before God
Love, love, my love
You should accept me as I am
If you see I don't like talking
Learn to interpret my absence
Love, love, my love
