The Chavez (2024) s01e02 Episode Script
Episode 2
[cheerful music playing]
MEXICO CITY
My God.
[Myriam]
The Chávez family really travels a lot.
Tijuana, Culiacán, Los Angeles,
and Las Vegas.
We're constantly traveling.
We're going to Mexico City now
to visit Nicole.
-[Myriam] Vero!
-[Vero] Coming!
-[Myriam] Help me out, please.
-[Vero] Where's Luci?
Don't say a word about Luci.
-No, honey. Hold on.
-[Myriam] Hey, sweetie--
-She's going back. No.
-Look at all these suitcases.
-You had one job.
-[Myriam] Yes,
but I also had to get here.
How are you, Vero?
-[Vero] I'm good, ma'am. How are you?
-Are you serious?
I just couldn't bring her. I'm on my own.
I have your father's suitcase, mine,
and all the stuff you left over there.
Come on.
-"Mommy. How was your trip? How are you?"
-No…
-[Myriam] "How was your flight?"
-No. You're too much.
[Myriam sighs]
Nicole. Don't get me started.
I'm very upset that she left Luci behind.
I walk into the apartment
with all those suitcases like a mad woman
and the first thing she does…
She didn't even say hello to me
or even kiss me hello.
She just goes, "Where's Luci?"
Which happens to be a little dog.
I was wearing my sports clothes.
I literally decided to wear
my workout outfit to go out for a walk
with Luci so people would look at us,
but she didn't bring her.
That animal is almost 25 pounds.
LUCIFER, NICOLE'S LITTLE DOG
I came here all by myself. If I had come
with someone, I would have brought her,
but I left her literally
"clothed and rowdy."
You got me in a mood.
-[Myriam] Well, honey.
-I don't want to talk to you.
-[Myriam] Well, honey.
-Where's my dad?
[Myriam] Your dad is in Culiacán.
He loves it there.
But I don't. I pass.
I figured I'd just come straight here.
It's best for me to wait here for him.
[Myriam] Culiacán, for me, is really…
I really don't like it.
I don't like spending time
with Julio's family
because in all families,
of course there are issues.
So I don't like spending
much time around them.
THE CHÁVEZ
[lively music playing]
[Julio] I like Culiacán,
even though I was not born here.
I was born in Ciudad Obregón, Sonora,
but ever since I was a little boy,
we lived in Culiacán.
I grew up here, it's where I made myself
the boxer I got to be,
and I got married here.
Besides, my whole family lives here.
My mom
and my siblings live here…
although Myriam doesn't really like it
when I come to Culiacán.
But I don't give a fuck.
I get to Culiacán
and the first thing I do,
before anything else happens,
is that I go grocery shopping for my mom.
And I remember…
I go back to when I was a kid.
To when we couldn't afford food.
So I went for some grocery shopping and…
My heart is in my throat.
-The usual, champ.
-[staff 1] The usual?
Four pounds of…
You know, chicken, fish.
-[customer 1] It's nice to see you.
-[Julio] Thank you.
[staff 1] Here you go.
-[customer 2] Champ. How are you doing?
-[Julio] All good.
Good. I'm glad you're here.
-Nice to see you, Julio. Take care.
-Thank you, champ.
[Julio] And people get surprised.
They see me…
"Why is Julio grocery shopping here?"
[lively music playing]
-Done. Okay. Thank you.
-[staff 2] Have a good one.
[customer 3] Julio César,
a picture with my boy.
Hey. How are you, champ?
MEXICO CITY
-Let's go out for a nice lunch.
-You won't want to have sushi, so…
-No! I'm sick of sushi.
-[Nicole] Maybe some Italian pasta.
-[Myriam] Good idea.
-You'll have to pay for the groceries.
-Again?
-Yes, Mom.
The last time I went grocery shopping
was two weeks ago.
-There's nothing left, right, Vero?
-[Vero] No, there's nothing left.
That's why you wanted me
to come, isn't it?
Tone it down a little, honey,
or you'll pay for your own groceries.
[Myriam] Whenever I get to Mexico City,
she acts as if she's so happy
to see me there, but she's not.
She's just waiting for me
to replenish her fridge
and pantry.
As an independent woman,
I'm… kind of independent.
I check when she's coming and I go like,
"My mom should pay for the groceries."
I don't want to spend
that much money on food.
There are three things I hate
about being independent.
Going grocery shopping,
spending on groceries,
and putting my groceries away.
[Myriam] I see.
-I mean, what do you think I am?
-Our slave.
-Am I, honey? Who's the--
-Our little slave.
You guys are at my disposal,
but you all get confused.
[mellow music playing]
ISABEL'S HOUSE
-[Julio] Chabela!
-[Isabel] Yes?
-[Julio] How are you, Chabela?
-I'm here.
[soft chuckle]
-How are you?
-[Isabel] Good, my boy.
-What did you cook? Beans and rice?
-And chicharroncito.
-[Julio] And chicharroncito.
-[Isabel] Look.
-[Julio] Okay, let me try.
-[Isabel] Yes.
-[Julio] Here.
-[Isabel] Grab that.
Good!
[Julio] That's a habit of mine.
To go home with her groceries,
so she'll make chicharroncito for me
with my rice and beans
because that's what she always made
for us when we were growing up.
-[Julio] How are you, Mom?
-[Isabel] Good, my boy.
I've missed you.
I've been traveling so much.
I've had so much work.
Yes, much work.
Ever since I was a little boy,
my mom has been…
my muse.
That's why I come to see her
as often as I can.
Because you never know when…
when she might leave us, you know?
How are the boys, son?
I hadn't seen Cristian
in a long time and they threw me…
-a birthday party…
-I'm glad.
And I talked to him a lot there.
He's doing great, thank God.
I'm glad. He works so hard.
But you know how those assholes are, Mom.
[sighs]
-They're such a handful.
-Well, yes.
And later today, I'll come
-have some beans.
-[chuckles]
-And some rice.
-With rice and chicharroncito.
-Like the one you used to make.
-Yes, it was good.
I don't know who made it.
You can't cook anymore.
Yes, I can!
[both chuckle]
That hug my mom gave me, well, it's…
it's worth everything, you know?
Because I know that she…
It's with all her love.
Son, since you're here,
send a text to Omar.
Tell him you're going to see him
and that you're here.
That you really feel like seeing him.
I haven't seen that kid in a while.
I'll send him a text and see if…
He's doing great.
When his mom and I split up,
it was a very hard blow for them.
[Julio] Even though time has passed,
and years have gone by,
it always feels like they continue
to harbor resentment towards me.
They think that…
Myriam has taken
that love that I…
that I still have for them.
Because they're my children,
I will always care for them
and I will always love them.
-I already texted him.
-That's nice.
-Well done, sweetheart.
-God.
[Julio groans]
-[Julio] Look at that picture.
-Look, son.
-[Julio] I hadn't seen it.
-You hadn't seen it, had you?
-[Julio] I'm with--
-Look. There you are with Omar and Junior.
-[Julio] They were so little, yes.
-They were little kids. You were young.
[Isabel] Here you are with your mom.
-[Julio] You were so young.
-I was young.
Here you are with…
There are two brothers missing
in that picture.
My borreguito
-and Ariel.
-[Julio] Borrego, may he rest in peace.
There's a certain sadness within me
because every time I arrive in Culiacán
and I think about my brother, Borrego…
[somber music playing]
[Julio] Unfortunately,
my brother, Borrego…
died about three or four years ago.
He was always there with me
in every single training session.
And you won't believe me
when I say that I always walk in there…
with the illusion that I might see him.
Even though I know
I'm not going to see him, but…
Yes.
-I love you, son.
-I love you too, Mom.
I love you with all my heart.
You and all of your children.
-Thank you, Mom.
-[Isabel sighs]
-Take care, sweetheart. God bless you.
-[Julio] Okay, Mom.
-And Blessed Virgin Mary.
-[Julio] Thank you.
[lively music playing]
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
-Yes, I already--
-Look.
-[Cristian] What's up?
-We were just
-speaking ill of you.
-We were talking about you.
-I'm so hungry. What did you order?
-Me too. I swear. I have a headache.
-[Myriam] When did you get here?
-Earlier this morning.
Are you here because of your job?
Yes, my job. I have my certification
this Thursday. Unbelievable.
I came to Mexico City to get certified
as a financial consultant and honestly,
this is super important for me.
-But you have been studying?
-Yes, I've studied so much.
Literally, I just study, all of the time,
while you, honey…
-I work.
-Right!
-When I come back from work…
-I don't want to be embarrassed.
-…I rest and I travel, like right now.
-[Cristian] What…
I don't have the need to work, thank God.
But not having the need
doesn't mean that I don't want to
or that I'm not willing to work.
I have my older brothers as examples
and there are so many things
I don't want to repeat.
I don't like to hear
how my brothers call them
to ask them to work things out for them,
so they… No.
Hey, you haven't seen a thing
in the chat of wishes or what?
-Didn't you read anything my mom sent?
-No. I haven't seen it.
-[Cristian] What was it, Myriam?
-[Myriam] So serious.
Just a little drink and then I'll tell you
what this is all about.
-Excuse me.
-[Myriam] So?
-For real?
-Sir, is there really alcohol in this?
-[waiter] Yes, of course.
-Yes?
-Sweetheart!
-[laughs]
-Don't you ever get tired? Honestly.
-It tastes like water. I swear.
Sir, you have a video message
from Mrs. Myriam. Should I play it?
-From the witch?
-[Silva] Yes.
-[chuckles]
-Okay, play it. What does she want?
Let me show you the video that I sent…
-your dad. Listen.
-[Cristian] Okay.
Hello, everyone! It was up to me to use
for the first time this chat of wishes
-and my wish is for Julio.
-Chat of what?
Wishes.
[Myriam]
You remember that when we got married,
we got married wearing sweatpants at home?
Well, today, I want my pretty picture…
-My pretty wedding picture.
-[scoffs]
In this chat,
all wishes must be fulfilled.
Go get your tuxedo ready.
-No, Myriam.
-[Nicole] You didn't…
-I want a party.
-Like a wedding reception?
[Myriam] Of course!
I mean, I was in shock
because their reaction was to laugh.
They didn't believe me
and they kept asking, "Are you serious?"
I was like, "What's wrong with them?"
[Cristian] Myriam, at your age? Come on.
You're too much, really.
That's so embarrassing. Honestly, no.
-Quinceañera. That's ridiculous!
-[Myriam] Listen!
Listen!
[Myriam] When we decided to get married
for legal reasons,
about a week or two went by, I don't know,
after the date we had set,
and we forgot.
We were having lunch.
We got home and the judge
and witnesses were all there,
waiting for us, all dressed up.
The judge was wearing a long dress
and we were, literally,
wearing sweatpants, like pajamas.
We had no reception.
So I thought,
"I want my picture."
What's with that shit?
What is she… I don't get it.
I mean…
Such a ridiculous old woman.
What is she talking about?
-[driver chuckles]
-[Silva] She wants a picture.
That's really bullshit.
He didn't answer? My dad?
He opened the message.
What does it mean if he didn't answer?
-That your wish won't be fulfilled? Aw…
-No.
-All my wishes get fulfilled, sweetie.
-Thank you.
-You know my dad.
-Your dad is going to say yes.
-I mean, yes--
-He won't have a choice.
That bitch is crazy, I mean, fuck.
She wants…
She wants to get married to me again…
to tie me down even tighter, I guess.
[chuckles]
The only part I could support you with
-is if we throw a party.
-A huge party.
-A huge party.
-I want a party.
-The biggest party.
-That would be really nice.
-And--
-With everyone.
Yes, with everyone. I mean, literally.
With Julio, Omar, you, myself, Myriam.
[Myriam] Do you know how long it would
take for us to reach an agreement?
My mom, your mom.
-Say what? I mean…
-[laughs]
We should all have a table for 15 people,
-so we can invite our friends over.
-It's my wedding, not yours, honey.
But we're the ones
who are setting the mood, queen.
You don't want your wedding
to be a seniors' wedding
with just old people dancing to José José.
-Hold it. Myriam, but dressed in white?
-You're not pure anymore, honey.
-You can't get married wearing white!
-[Myriam] Okay.
-Okay.
-That's hilarious.
I'm the one who wants a party.
I'm throwing myself a party.
Mark my words.
[upbeat music playing,
NE1 "Keep Me Down"]
LOS CHÁVEZ GYM
[Julio] I manage my brother Rodolfo's gym.
This warmth feels horrible
when you get here.
[Julio] My brothers, Rodolfo
and Polo, the youngest,
are waiting for me.
[Julio] Well done, assholes! Keep going!
[indistinct chatter]
I'll go change to start the training.
I have my own hero, I'm telling you,
which is my brother,
Julio César Chávez.
[Polo] He's my role model
as a person.
He's a great brother.
He's always taking care of us.
I'm really proud of him
because he has that humility
to approach all the new kids.
What I admire about him the most
is how humble he is.
Once, I told him…
I told him, "Hey, what does it feel like
to be loved by so many people?"
It was just the two of us
and he goes,
"Just imagine what would happen
if I paid attention to my ego."
[yells]
It's so fucking hot, son of a bitch!
[yells]
Take the gloves off.
Motherfucker.
Since when have you been
taking my gloves off, dude?
[Rodolfo] Since I was 14.
And which was the biggest fight
that you took them off, Rodolfo?
-[Rodolfo] One was in the Estadio Azteca.
-It was one of the most…
-The most important, the most famous.
-[Rodolfo] It was
one of the most important fights.
It was breathtaking.
It was unbelievable. Just picture that.
[crowd cheering]
[announcer in English] Julio César Chávez
is a living legend in this country.
And while training for this fight,
even the President of Mexico
came to watch him spar.
[rock music playing]
[in Spanish] My brother's fight
against Greg Haugen at the Estadio Azteca
was mind-blowing.
And may the Earth tremble to its core ♪
To the resounding roar of the cannon ♪
[crowd cheering]
[announcer in English]
Here we go, round one!
[in Spanish] I was right next to the ring,
right under there.
[Polo] And that's where we watched
the whole fight. It was something…
It was really exhilarating.
[announcer in English] A straight right
that hammered Haugen to the deck.
[in Spanish]
There were so many people there.
[Polo] Over 136,000 souls yelling,
"Chávez! Chávez! Chávez!"
[announcer in English]
And down goes Haugen!
[crowd cheering]
[Julio in Spanish] To be standing there,
in front of 136,000 people
is insane.
It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience
that will not happen again.
[Polo] And the one with Taylor too?
[Julio] That fight against
Meldrick Taylor too. Absolutely, yes.
The years go by and that fight
is still a historical event.
It will remain a historical event
my whole life.
[commentator] It is not often, my friends,
that we have the chance to witness
-such an exciting fight.
-[crowd cheering]
Do you remember when you stepped
into the ring and told me,
"We won, brother!" He kept saying that.
[commentator] Julio César Chávez has won!
[Julio] "We won!" I mean,
I felt like throwing up and passing out.
-[Polo] From exhaustion.
-"I know we won, idiot, but take me…
Help me off the ring
because I'm passing out."
"We won!" He was still so excited.
[Julio] Yes. Son of a bitch.
[upbeat music playing]
I'm Omar Alonso Chávez Carrasco, a boxer.
And I'm the black sheep of the family.
[Omar]
I wanted to be like my dad in every way.
For many people, he is their idol.
Just imagine that.
I had him home. I watched the fights.
I thought, "I want to be like my dad."
I was his favorite, you know?
He arrived in the car and it was like,
"Your dad is here!"
And every kid in school just…
And I felt so cool.
He picked me up.
I felt so cool.
What's up?
-Son of a bitch. It's a miracle.
-[Omar] Well, you know.
Miracles do happen.
What's up, Dad?
It has been a long time, dude.
Yes. You tend to go missing.
[Julio] I went missing?
Or is it you who went missing, dude?
Sometimes it's me.
[Julio] It has been about a year
since I last saw Omar.
Because that bastard
has been hiding from me.
Because, unfortunately,
Omar likes gambling.
So I had to put him in rehab once.
Because of that very problem.
They turned my dad's house into a clinic
and I had lived there.
So I knew where to go and my dad started…
[Omar] Well, he strengthened everything
to the point that it got, well…
It literally got inhumane.
I was even sleeping
on the floor and all that.
What have you been doing?
Nothing. I've spent time with my mom.
I've been at ease.
-How is your mom?
-She's great.
Yes?
[Omar] Yes.
-Julio is in Los Angeles, isn't he?
-Yes.
[Omar] My beautiful brother,
Junior, to me,
is my favorite.
The one who always calls me
or tells me off and all that.
With him,
we've been through thick and thin.
I know he has been struggling for years
because of everything
we went through with my dad,
my mom, and all that.
I will always be thankful to him
because when my dad…
was not doing well,
thanks to my brother and Myriam,
he bounced back.
I'll try to go visit him in two weeks
if he'll have me.
We'll always have you.
You're so resentful, you know.
No, it's not that I'm resentful, son.
The thing is that…
Well, the child
is supposed to call their parent, right?
Especially when we get old.
It's like…
when my dad was…
He was about 70 years old.
It didn't matter what happened or
how I was, I had to go see him, you know?
And my mom too.
But anyway, look,
what matters the most is that…
that you're okay.
That Julio,
Cristian, Nicole, and you are fine.
You know, I have always told you, son.
As long as you're okay,
I won't pry into your lives.
And when you're not okay,
I will always help you, son.
Even if you hate me,
even if you reject me,
or even if you stop talking to me.
Well, I've made mistakes, as we all do.
So there has been some stuff.
I have made mistakes
that have bummed my dad out.
You already have a son, Omarcito.
If you saw him unwell or unhappy,
would you leave him alone?
No.
I'm glad to see you do the right thing.
Listen, later in life,
blessings come on their own, son.
They'll come on their own.
-With God's help.
-With God's help and if you want it.
"Help yourself and I'll help you," right?
I don't talk much…
and even less so to you.
You're always…
telling me that
and sometimes, I listen to you,
but some other times I don't.
You should always have the bad things
in mind and never forget them.
Like when your drinking got really bad,
you shouldn't forget about that,
so you don't start drinking again, I mean.
No. That's for addicts, son.
-Exactly. Talking--
-[Julio] Yes, but--
-But I'm talking about what you have done.
-[Omar] Okay.
-I mean, I'm talking about you, not me.
-Okay.
He has done things
that have bummed me out too,
but my dad doesn't like it
when I tell him that.
He's one of those people that thinks,
"I am your dad. I get angry, not you."
He can't be a guardian angel,
even if he wanted to be one, I mean.
I wish that…
Omar would go out jogging,
that he would stop gambling.
I wish they'd spend more time
with their kids.
For them not to take
the wrong path, right?
[Julio] When are you getting
your act together, you damn bastard?
Today I started walking with my mom.
-Should I believe you?
-[Omar] Yes.
I swear.
-From now on, let's give our all.
-[Omar] Okay, Dad.
-Okay?
-[Omar] Okay. I love you.
-Me too, son. I'll go get a shower.
-[Omar] Okay.
Or I'll get fucking dehydrated
with this damn heat.
I was surprised to see him
walk into the gym and say,
"Dad, I'll get my act together.
Forgive me. I'm sorry.
I'll give my all."
To me, that was a…
It made me really happy
and it was a great incentive, right?
[upbeat music playing]
[Nicole] Vero, can you pass me
my sneakers, please?
[Vero] I'm coming!
[Nicole] I need some socks
that don't have all these…
-Prints?
-Mm-hmm.
-[Vero] There you go, miss.
-Thank you, Vero.
You must have some.
And my dad?
Didn't he answer to your video?
If he says no, what are you going to do?
Honestly. I mean, in all seriousness.
Don't go all, "What I want, I get."
-No. Really.
-Okay.
I just don't understand
why do you all think it is so far-fetched.
-Because we are married.
-Mom, because you're…
It would be a reception for the elderly.
-Two people over 60 years…
-What the hell?
-…are getting married right now.
-Nicole.
-Nicole.
-I mean, it's not like it's trendy.
Okay, Nicole, do you know many people…
I mean, you even sound ridiculous.
So many people get married
in their 60's, 70's, and 80's.
There are no age limits for that.
Okay, who are we going to invite?
That would be the only reason
why I wouldn't go to your wedding.
It depends on who you're inviting.
-Yes.
-No. What are you talking about?
-I'll be at the entrance, like a guard.
-I'm inviting--
"You're okay, you're not okay,
you're okay, you're not okay."
-I'm inviting whomever I want.
-I'm not worried.
[Myriam] Your dad's family is huge.
-I have to invite them all, okay?
-No. I didn't say anything.
-I won't say anything.
-Besides,
it's a beautiful opportunity for everyone
to see each other again.
Look, I know
that my brothers will be invited.
But will they go?
[laughs]
Invite… Exactly.
-I'm inviting them. That's all I can do.
-That's a whole other thing.
-And Omar?
-Yes. Why not?
Of course it'll be shocking
to see him again.
Mainly because it has been three years
or more since the last time I saw him.
Our breaking point
was, basically,
that he once again disrespected my mom.
It was very public.
I mean, we both recorded and posted videos
about it on our own Instagram accounts.
Yesterday, I made a comment.
My dad called me very angry,
asking what bullshit I had been saying.
Now Nicole posts things about me.
I don't know
what his obsession is with my mom.
Why are you so mad? Because my mom
was actually able to save my dad?
Just keep talking about my mom
and I'll keep telling the truth.
If you heard how my dad has to solve
every single problem in his life.
He saved his house… Everything…
I'm not upset with Nicole because…
Well, what she says,
to begin with, is not true.
I've been working
since I was 16 years old,
thanks to the surname I got from my dad,
but I get up and train,
I go out for a run, and thanks to that,
I've earned my money.
I have never disrespected his mom
and not because I don't want to.
If you think
my mom had to go through some bad stuff,
his mom had it much worse. Poor thing.
It is so lame to be
the victim of your traumas.
Nicole said that and my dad…
He won't lock her away.
But if I keep saying stuff,
he comes and locks me up.
What's your problem?
That's my problem
and that's where all my anger comes from.
You might be my brother,
but I don't want to have anything
to do with you ever again.
I don't respect you whatsoever.
I don't care about that.
I care about
what they do to turn my dad against me.
That he could lock me away or say things
just because the people closest to him
don't like me.
We haven't talked ever since.
[tense pensive music playing]
I have nothing personal against Omar.
He has got so many things about me wrong.
I hope that he'll realize that with time.
It's just if I see anyone making a face,
I'll throw them out.
I just don't think they'll dare.
Look, honey. You never know.
It all depends on who you invite.
You know what?
I don't want to talk about this anymore.
-It's like--
-It's stressing you out.
-It's making me--
-It stresses you out.
And I don't want that.
[Omar] Nicole
came up with the idea
to start a group chat,
but she forgot
that no one talks to each other.
No, I mean, that's fine.
I hope it's all for the best.
[upbeat music playing]
[Omar] My dad used to be…
I said "used to be"
because they don't let him anymore.
He used to be so…
My dad gave us everything.
We were his everything.
Now, my relationship with my dad is…
well, very different.
He told me, "Myriam used to show me
your videos when you were around here."
She wanted to see us burn, I mean.
Work two, four. Come. Short ones.
One, two, three, four.
Why is your wife saying stuff?
[Omar] Nicole, our half-sister…
I love her so much.
Right now we're a little estranged,
but we've had our great moments.
[soft music playing]
Well, you know,
Christmas has great moments
when we all went to a room
and played hide and seek or…
[soft music continues]
I'm fine with Nicole.
It's her mom I have issues with,
but the girl…
Well, it bummed her out. I get it.
But I'm not a phony person.
I mean, I can't say,
"Oh, no, I wish we could mend things."
I'm a very proud person.
But I don't know.
I don't think it's wrong.
It's all right. If we mend things, good.
If we don't, that's good too.
If you want me with you,
well, that's fine.
You know what? Let me call your dad.
NICOLE'S APARTMEN
Right now.
What is that old man up to?
[line rings]
-Sir?
-[Julio] What's up, big guy?
That witch again?
You're happy without me, aren't you,
you damn fatty?
This is the life I like
and the life I deserve.
[Myriam]
What are you up to in your hometown?
Trying to survive
this damned hot weather we have over here.
But you couldn't wait to be over there.
Be happy there.
-Look, I'm with a chubby girl here.
-[chuckles]
I'll put a wig and a dress on Silva
and he'll sleep with me from now on.
-I always knew.
-Oh, no.
[Myriam] I always knew.
You'll turn 80
and Silva will continue
to sleep with you or what?
[Julio] I can't sleep on my own.
Such a curious thing, you see?
My aunt, Angelina…
She died there at home
in one of the rooms.
So when we acted out,
they would send us to that room.
Since then, I started
feeling scared of sleeping alone.
I'm starting to get worried.
[Silva] It's not true, ma'am.
All of a sudden, he tells me,
"Get on the bed, big guy."
[laughs]
[Julio] Hey, guess what?
-What's up?
-Omar went to the gym
and he surprised me there.
-Would you look at that.
-We talked. I think he's doing very well.
Thank God,
he seems much better.
And that…
You know…
-how I get.
-I'm glad, darling. That's great.
Hey, so should I add him
to the chat of wishes or what?
-[Julio] What?
-[Nicole] Is it the right time?
-There you go with your bullshit.
-Oh, no. Don't you start.
-Forget about all your bullshit.
-Yes. Don't start. I'll add him.
I'll add Omar right now
to the chat of wishes.
No, Omar will come up
with some other bullshit!
-Okay.
-Okay.
You know I don't like that shit.
-Omar will come up with some bullshit!
-Did you watch--
Did you watch what I sent?
Yes. All bullshit.
Okay, my love.
I'm not asking here.
You know I want that party.
-We want a party.
-[Myriam] We want a party.
[Nicole] We want a party.
I'm not all that convinced, really.
No. Don't fuck with me.
If I don't get my party,
you'll continue to sleep with Silva
for as long as you live.
[Julio and Silva laugh]
-[Silva] No! Why are you punishing me?
-[comical music playing]
No. Quit your bullshit.
Bye, Dad.
I'll put a skirt and a wig on Silva
-and that's it, you know?
-[Silva laughs]
-No!
-I'll start looking for your tuxedo.
That's what the chat of wishes is for.
Everything we wish for there
gets fulfilled.
[Julio] With all due respect,
stop it with your bullshit.
-You know I don't like those things.
-[Nicole] Get over yourself.
-You're wearing a groom's gown.
-[Julio] Bullshit!
Bye!
[Nicole humming "Bridal Chorus"]
What?
[laughs]
-Don't let him complain about a thing.
-Right…
Son of a bitch.
Let's go to bed already, Silva.
-[Silva] Did she hang up?
-She hung up, damn it.
[laughs]
[Silva] Damn!
-[Julio] But you're…
-What wig should I put on today?
You're sleeping on the floor.
You're an idiot. Quit your bullshit.
Out of love, my dad has always wanted
to check me into rehab.
[somber music playing]
But it didn't work.
[Julio Junior] I was just a kid
who had so many problems,
like my parents' divorce
and my dad's addiction.
Despite all that,
I did things
that no one expected me to do.
I went undefeated, I was world champion,
I earned millions of dollars,
and still have to hear my dad say,
"My son could have made it in boxing.
We should be like dad and son."
I'm Julio César Chávez Junior
and out of all the Chávez,
I'm the one people like the most.
[laughs]
[upbeat music playing,
NE1 "Nothing Is The Same"]
MEXICO CITY
My God.
[Myriam]
The Chávez family really travels a lot.
Tijuana, Culiacán, Los Angeles,
and Las Vegas.
We're constantly traveling.
We're going to Mexico City now
to visit Nicole.
-[Myriam] Vero!
-[Vero] Coming!
-[Myriam] Help me out, please.
-[Vero] Where's Luci?
Don't say a word about Luci.
-No, honey. Hold on.
-[Myriam] Hey, sweetie--
-She's going back. No.
-Look at all these suitcases.
-You had one job.
-[Myriam] Yes,
but I also had to get here.
How are you, Vero?
-[Vero] I'm good, ma'am. How are you?
-Are you serious?
I just couldn't bring her. I'm on my own.
I have your father's suitcase, mine,
and all the stuff you left over there.
Come on.
-"Mommy. How was your trip? How are you?"
-No…
-[Myriam] "How was your flight?"
-No. You're too much.
[Myriam sighs]
Nicole. Don't get me started.
I'm very upset that she left Luci behind.
I walk into the apartment
with all those suitcases like a mad woman
and the first thing she does…
She didn't even say hello to me
or even kiss me hello.
She just goes, "Where's Luci?"
Which happens to be a little dog.
I was wearing my sports clothes.
I literally decided to wear
my workout outfit to go out for a walk
with Luci so people would look at us,
but she didn't bring her.
That animal is almost 25 pounds.
LUCIFER, NICOLE'S LITTLE DOG
I came here all by myself. If I had come
with someone, I would have brought her,
but I left her literally
"clothed and rowdy."
You got me in a mood.
-[Myriam] Well, honey.
-I don't want to talk to you.
-[Myriam] Well, honey.
-Where's my dad?
[Myriam] Your dad is in Culiacán.
He loves it there.
But I don't. I pass.
I figured I'd just come straight here.
It's best for me to wait here for him.
[Myriam] Culiacán, for me, is really…
I really don't like it.
I don't like spending time
with Julio's family
because in all families,
of course there are issues.
So I don't like spending
much time around them.
THE CHÁVEZ
[lively music playing]
[Julio] I like Culiacán,
even though I was not born here.
I was born in Ciudad Obregón, Sonora,
but ever since I was a little boy,
we lived in Culiacán.
I grew up here, it's where I made myself
the boxer I got to be,
and I got married here.
Besides, my whole family lives here.
My mom
and my siblings live here…
although Myriam doesn't really like it
when I come to Culiacán.
But I don't give a fuck.
I get to Culiacán
and the first thing I do,
before anything else happens,
is that I go grocery shopping for my mom.
And I remember…
I go back to when I was a kid.
To when we couldn't afford food.
So I went for some grocery shopping and…
My heart is in my throat.
-The usual, champ.
-[staff 1] The usual?
Four pounds of…
You know, chicken, fish.
-[customer 1] It's nice to see you.
-[Julio] Thank you.
[staff 1] Here you go.
-[customer 2] Champ. How are you doing?
-[Julio] All good.
Good. I'm glad you're here.
-Nice to see you, Julio. Take care.
-Thank you, champ.
[Julio] And people get surprised.
They see me…
"Why is Julio grocery shopping here?"
[lively music playing]
-Done. Okay. Thank you.
-[staff 2] Have a good one.
[customer 3] Julio César,
a picture with my boy.
Hey. How are you, champ?
MEXICO CITY
-Let's go out for a nice lunch.
-You won't want to have sushi, so…
-No! I'm sick of sushi.
-[Nicole] Maybe some Italian pasta.
-[Myriam] Good idea.
-You'll have to pay for the groceries.
-Again?
-Yes, Mom.
The last time I went grocery shopping
was two weeks ago.
-There's nothing left, right, Vero?
-[Vero] No, there's nothing left.
That's why you wanted me
to come, isn't it?
Tone it down a little, honey,
or you'll pay for your own groceries.
[Myriam] Whenever I get to Mexico City,
she acts as if she's so happy
to see me there, but she's not.
She's just waiting for me
to replenish her fridge
and pantry.
As an independent woman,
I'm… kind of independent.
I check when she's coming and I go like,
"My mom should pay for the groceries."
I don't want to spend
that much money on food.
There are three things I hate
about being independent.
Going grocery shopping,
spending on groceries,
and putting my groceries away.
[Myriam] I see.
-I mean, what do you think I am?
-Our slave.
-Am I, honey? Who's the--
-Our little slave.
You guys are at my disposal,
but you all get confused.
[mellow music playing]
ISABEL'S HOUSE
-[Julio] Chabela!
-[Isabel] Yes?
-[Julio] How are you, Chabela?
-I'm here.
[soft chuckle]
-How are you?
-[Isabel] Good, my boy.
-What did you cook? Beans and rice?
-And chicharroncito.
-[Julio] And chicharroncito.
-[Isabel] Look.
-[Julio] Okay, let me try.
-[Isabel] Yes.
-[Julio] Here.
-[Isabel] Grab that.
Good!
[Julio] That's a habit of mine.
To go home with her groceries,
so she'll make chicharroncito for me
with my rice and beans
because that's what she always made
for us when we were growing up.
-[Julio] How are you, Mom?
-[Isabel] Good, my boy.
I've missed you.
I've been traveling so much.
I've had so much work.
Yes, much work.
Ever since I was a little boy,
my mom has been…
my muse.
That's why I come to see her
as often as I can.
Because you never know when…
when she might leave us, you know?
How are the boys, son?
I hadn't seen Cristian
in a long time and they threw me…
-a birthday party…
-I'm glad.
And I talked to him a lot there.
He's doing great, thank God.
I'm glad. He works so hard.
But you know how those assholes are, Mom.
[sighs]
-They're such a handful.
-Well, yes.
And later today, I'll come
-have some beans.
-[chuckles]
-And some rice.
-With rice and chicharroncito.
-Like the one you used to make.
-Yes, it was good.
I don't know who made it.
You can't cook anymore.
Yes, I can!
[both chuckle]
That hug my mom gave me, well, it's…
it's worth everything, you know?
Because I know that she…
It's with all her love.
Son, since you're here,
send a text to Omar.
Tell him you're going to see him
and that you're here.
That you really feel like seeing him.
I haven't seen that kid in a while.
I'll send him a text and see if…
He's doing great.
When his mom and I split up,
it was a very hard blow for them.
[Julio] Even though time has passed,
and years have gone by,
it always feels like they continue
to harbor resentment towards me.
They think that…
Myriam has taken
that love that I…
that I still have for them.
Because they're my children,
I will always care for them
and I will always love them.
-I already texted him.
-That's nice.
-Well done, sweetheart.
-God.
[Julio groans]
-[Julio] Look at that picture.
-Look, son.
-[Julio] I hadn't seen it.
-You hadn't seen it, had you?
-[Julio] I'm with--
-Look. There you are with Omar and Junior.
-[Julio] They were so little, yes.
-They were little kids. You were young.
[Isabel] Here you are with your mom.
-[Julio] You were so young.
-I was young.
Here you are with…
There are two brothers missing
in that picture.
My borreguito
-and Ariel.
-[Julio] Borrego, may he rest in peace.
There's a certain sadness within me
because every time I arrive in Culiacán
and I think about my brother, Borrego…
[somber music playing]
[Julio] Unfortunately,
my brother, Borrego…
died about three or four years ago.
He was always there with me
in every single training session.
And you won't believe me
when I say that I always walk in there…
with the illusion that I might see him.
Even though I know
I'm not going to see him, but…
Yes.
-I love you, son.
-I love you too, Mom.
I love you with all my heart.
You and all of your children.
-Thank you, Mom.
-[Isabel sighs]
-Take care, sweetheart. God bless you.
-[Julio] Okay, Mom.
-And Blessed Virgin Mary.
-[Julio] Thank you.
[lively music playing]
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
-Yes, I already--
-Look.
-[Cristian] What's up?
-We were just
-speaking ill of you.
-We were talking about you.
-I'm so hungry. What did you order?
-Me too. I swear. I have a headache.
-[Myriam] When did you get here?
-Earlier this morning.
Are you here because of your job?
Yes, my job. I have my certification
this Thursday. Unbelievable.
I came to Mexico City to get certified
as a financial consultant and honestly,
this is super important for me.
-But you have been studying?
-Yes, I've studied so much.
Literally, I just study, all of the time,
while you, honey…
-I work.
-Right!
-When I come back from work…
-I don't want to be embarrassed.
-…I rest and I travel, like right now.
-[Cristian] What…
I don't have the need to work, thank God.
But not having the need
doesn't mean that I don't want to
or that I'm not willing to work.
I have my older brothers as examples
and there are so many things
I don't want to repeat.
I don't like to hear
how my brothers call them
to ask them to work things out for them,
so they… No.
Hey, you haven't seen a thing
in the chat of wishes or what?
-Didn't you read anything my mom sent?
-No. I haven't seen it.
-[Cristian] What was it, Myriam?
-[Myriam] So serious.
Just a little drink and then I'll tell you
what this is all about.
-Excuse me.
-[Myriam] So?
-For real?
-Sir, is there really alcohol in this?
-[waiter] Yes, of course.
-Yes?
-Sweetheart!
-[laughs]
-Don't you ever get tired? Honestly.
-It tastes like water. I swear.
Sir, you have a video message
from Mrs. Myriam. Should I play it?
-From the witch?
-[Silva] Yes.
-[chuckles]
-Okay, play it. What does she want?
Let me show you the video that I sent…
-your dad. Listen.
-[Cristian] Okay.
Hello, everyone! It was up to me to use
for the first time this chat of wishes
-and my wish is for Julio.
-Chat of what?
Wishes.
[Myriam]
You remember that when we got married,
we got married wearing sweatpants at home?
Well, today, I want my pretty picture…
-My pretty wedding picture.
-[scoffs]
In this chat,
all wishes must be fulfilled.
Go get your tuxedo ready.
-No, Myriam.
-[Nicole] You didn't…
-I want a party.
-Like a wedding reception?
[Myriam] Of course!
I mean, I was in shock
because their reaction was to laugh.
They didn't believe me
and they kept asking, "Are you serious?"
I was like, "What's wrong with them?"
[Cristian] Myriam, at your age? Come on.
You're too much, really.
That's so embarrassing. Honestly, no.
-Quinceañera. That's ridiculous!
-[Myriam] Listen!
Listen!
[Myriam] When we decided to get married
for legal reasons,
about a week or two went by, I don't know,
after the date we had set,
and we forgot.
We were having lunch.
We got home and the judge
and witnesses were all there,
waiting for us, all dressed up.
The judge was wearing a long dress
and we were, literally,
wearing sweatpants, like pajamas.
We had no reception.
So I thought,
"I want my picture."
What's with that shit?
What is she… I don't get it.
I mean…
Such a ridiculous old woman.
What is she talking about?
-[driver chuckles]
-[Silva] She wants a picture.
That's really bullshit.
He didn't answer? My dad?
He opened the message.
What does it mean if he didn't answer?
-That your wish won't be fulfilled? Aw…
-No.
-All my wishes get fulfilled, sweetie.
-Thank you.
-You know my dad.
-Your dad is going to say yes.
-I mean, yes--
-He won't have a choice.
That bitch is crazy, I mean, fuck.
She wants…
She wants to get married to me again…
to tie me down even tighter, I guess.
[chuckles]
The only part I could support you with
-is if we throw a party.
-A huge party.
-A huge party.
-I want a party.
-The biggest party.
-That would be really nice.
-And--
-With everyone.
Yes, with everyone. I mean, literally.
With Julio, Omar, you, myself, Myriam.
[Myriam] Do you know how long it would
take for us to reach an agreement?
My mom, your mom.
-Say what? I mean…
-[laughs]
We should all have a table for 15 people,
-so we can invite our friends over.
-It's my wedding, not yours, honey.
But we're the ones
who are setting the mood, queen.
You don't want your wedding
to be a seniors' wedding
with just old people dancing to José José.
-Hold it. Myriam, but dressed in white?
-You're not pure anymore, honey.
-You can't get married wearing white!
-[Myriam] Okay.
-Okay.
-That's hilarious.
I'm the one who wants a party.
I'm throwing myself a party.
Mark my words.
[upbeat music playing,
NE1 "Keep Me Down"]
LOS CHÁVEZ GYM
[Julio] I manage my brother Rodolfo's gym.
This warmth feels horrible
when you get here.
[Julio] My brothers, Rodolfo
and Polo, the youngest,
are waiting for me.
[Julio] Well done, assholes! Keep going!
[indistinct chatter]
I'll go change to start the training.
I have my own hero, I'm telling you,
which is my brother,
Julio César Chávez.
[Polo] He's my role model
as a person.
He's a great brother.
He's always taking care of us.
I'm really proud of him
because he has that humility
to approach all the new kids.
What I admire about him the most
is how humble he is.
Once, I told him…
I told him, "Hey, what does it feel like
to be loved by so many people?"
It was just the two of us
and he goes,
"Just imagine what would happen
if I paid attention to my ego."
[yells]
It's so fucking hot, son of a bitch!
[yells]
Take the gloves off.
Motherfucker.
Since when have you been
taking my gloves off, dude?
[Rodolfo] Since I was 14.
And which was the biggest fight
that you took them off, Rodolfo?
-[Rodolfo] One was in the Estadio Azteca.
-It was one of the most…
-The most important, the most famous.
-[Rodolfo] It was
one of the most important fights.
It was breathtaking.
It was unbelievable. Just picture that.
[crowd cheering]
[announcer in English] Julio César Chávez
is a living legend in this country.
And while training for this fight,
even the President of Mexico
came to watch him spar.
[rock music playing]
[in Spanish] My brother's fight
against Greg Haugen at the Estadio Azteca
was mind-blowing.
And may the Earth tremble to its core ♪
To the resounding roar of the cannon ♪
[crowd cheering]
[announcer in English]
Here we go, round one!
[in Spanish] I was right next to the ring,
right under there.
[Polo] And that's where we watched
the whole fight. It was something…
It was really exhilarating.
[announcer in English] A straight right
that hammered Haugen to the deck.
[in Spanish]
There were so many people there.
[Polo] Over 136,000 souls yelling,
"Chávez! Chávez! Chávez!"
[announcer in English]
And down goes Haugen!
[crowd cheering]
[Julio in Spanish] To be standing there,
in front of 136,000 people
is insane.
It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience
that will not happen again.
[Polo] And the one with Taylor too?
[Julio] That fight against
Meldrick Taylor too. Absolutely, yes.
The years go by and that fight
is still a historical event.
It will remain a historical event
my whole life.
[commentator] It is not often, my friends,
that we have the chance to witness
-such an exciting fight.
-[crowd cheering]
Do you remember when you stepped
into the ring and told me,
"We won, brother!" He kept saying that.
[commentator] Julio César Chávez has won!
[Julio] "We won!" I mean,
I felt like throwing up and passing out.
-[Polo] From exhaustion.
-"I know we won, idiot, but take me…
Help me off the ring
because I'm passing out."
"We won!" He was still so excited.
[Julio] Yes. Son of a bitch.
[upbeat music playing]
I'm Omar Alonso Chávez Carrasco, a boxer.
And I'm the black sheep of the family.
[Omar]
I wanted to be like my dad in every way.
For many people, he is their idol.
Just imagine that.
I had him home. I watched the fights.
I thought, "I want to be like my dad."
I was his favorite, you know?
He arrived in the car and it was like,
"Your dad is here!"
And every kid in school just…
And I felt so cool.
He picked me up.
I felt so cool.
What's up?
-Son of a bitch. It's a miracle.
-[Omar] Well, you know.
Miracles do happen.
What's up, Dad?
It has been a long time, dude.
Yes. You tend to go missing.
[Julio] I went missing?
Or is it you who went missing, dude?
Sometimes it's me.
[Julio] It has been about a year
since I last saw Omar.
Because that bastard
has been hiding from me.
Because, unfortunately,
Omar likes gambling.
So I had to put him in rehab once.
Because of that very problem.
They turned my dad's house into a clinic
and I had lived there.
So I knew where to go and my dad started…
[Omar] Well, he strengthened everything
to the point that it got, well…
It literally got inhumane.
I was even sleeping
on the floor and all that.
What have you been doing?
Nothing. I've spent time with my mom.
I've been at ease.
-How is your mom?
-She's great.
Yes?
[Omar] Yes.
-Julio is in Los Angeles, isn't he?
-Yes.
[Omar] My beautiful brother,
Junior, to me,
is my favorite.
The one who always calls me
or tells me off and all that.
With him,
we've been through thick and thin.
I know he has been struggling for years
because of everything
we went through with my dad,
my mom, and all that.
I will always be thankful to him
because when my dad…
was not doing well,
thanks to my brother and Myriam,
he bounced back.
I'll try to go visit him in two weeks
if he'll have me.
We'll always have you.
You're so resentful, you know.
No, it's not that I'm resentful, son.
The thing is that…
Well, the child
is supposed to call their parent, right?
Especially when we get old.
It's like…
when my dad was…
He was about 70 years old.
It didn't matter what happened or
how I was, I had to go see him, you know?
And my mom too.
But anyway, look,
what matters the most is that…
that you're okay.
That Julio,
Cristian, Nicole, and you are fine.
You know, I have always told you, son.
As long as you're okay,
I won't pry into your lives.
And when you're not okay,
I will always help you, son.
Even if you hate me,
even if you reject me,
or even if you stop talking to me.
Well, I've made mistakes, as we all do.
So there has been some stuff.
I have made mistakes
that have bummed my dad out.
You already have a son, Omarcito.
If you saw him unwell or unhappy,
would you leave him alone?
No.
I'm glad to see you do the right thing.
Listen, later in life,
blessings come on their own, son.
They'll come on their own.
-With God's help.
-With God's help and if you want it.
"Help yourself and I'll help you," right?
I don't talk much…
and even less so to you.
You're always…
telling me that
and sometimes, I listen to you,
but some other times I don't.
You should always have the bad things
in mind and never forget them.
Like when your drinking got really bad,
you shouldn't forget about that,
so you don't start drinking again, I mean.
No. That's for addicts, son.
-Exactly. Talking--
-[Julio] Yes, but--
-But I'm talking about what you have done.
-[Omar] Okay.
-I mean, I'm talking about you, not me.
-Okay.
He has done things
that have bummed me out too,
but my dad doesn't like it
when I tell him that.
He's one of those people that thinks,
"I am your dad. I get angry, not you."
He can't be a guardian angel,
even if he wanted to be one, I mean.
I wish that…
Omar would go out jogging,
that he would stop gambling.
I wish they'd spend more time
with their kids.
For them not to take
the wrong path, right?
[Julio] When are you getting
your act together, you damn bastard?
Today I started walking with my mom.
-Should I believe you?
-[Omar] Yes.
I swear.
-From now on, let's give our all.
-[Omar] Okay, Dad.
-Okay?
-[Omar] Okay. I love you.
-Me too, son. I'll go get a shower.
-[Omar] Okay.
Or I'll get fucking dehydrated
with this damn heat.
I was surprised to see him
walk into the gym and say,
"Dad, I'll get my act together.
Forgive me. I'm sorry.
I'll give my all."
To me, that was a…
It made me really happy
and it was a great incentive, right?
[upbeat music playing]
[Nicole] Vero, can you pass me
my sneakers, please?
[Vero] I'm coming!
[Nicole] I need some socks
that don't have all these…
-Prints?
-Mm-hmm.
-[Vero] There you go, miss.
-Thank you, Vero.
You must have some.
And my dad?
Didn't he answer to your video?
If he says no, what are you going to do?
Honestly. I mean, in all seriousness.
Don't go all, "What I want, I get."
-No. Really.
-Okay.
I just don't understand
why do you all think it is so far-fetched.
-Because we are married.
-Mom, because you're…
It would be a reception for the elderly.
-Two people over 60 years…
-What the hell?
-…are getting married right now.
-Nicole.
-Nicole.
-I mean, it's not like it's trendy.
Okay, Nicole, do you know many people…
I mean, you even sound ridiculous.
So many people get married
in their 60's, 70's, and 80's.
There are no age limits for that.
Okay, who are we going to invite?
That would be the only reason
why I wouldn't go to your wedding.
It depends on who you're inviting.
-Yes.
-No. What are you talking about?
-I'll be at the entrance, like a guard.
-I'm inviting--
"You're okay, you're not okay,
you're okay, you're not okay."
-I'm inviting whomever I want.
-I'm not worried.
[Myriam] Your dad's family is huge.
-I have to invite them all, okay?
-No. I didn't say anything.
-I won't say anything.
-Besides,
it's a beautiful opportunity for everyone
to see each other again.
Look, I know
that my brothers will be invited.
But will they go?
[laughs]
Invite… Exactly.
-I'm inviting them. That's all I can do.
-That's a whole other thing.
-And Omar?
-Yes. Why not?
Of course it'll be shocking
to see him again.
Mainly because it has been three years
or more since the last time I saw him.
Our breaking point
was, basically,
that he once again disrespected my mom.
It was very public.
I mean, we both recorded and posted videos
about it on our own Instagram accounts.
Yesterday, I made a comment.
My dad called me very angry,
asking what bullshit I had been saying.
Now Nicole posts things about me.
I don't know
what his obsession is with my mom.
Why are you so mad? Because my mom
was actually able to save my dad?
Just keep talking about my mom
and I'll keep telling the truth.
If you heard how my dad has to solve
every single problem in his life.
He saved his house… Everything…
I'm not upset with Nicole because…
Well, what she says,
to begin with, is not true.
I've been working
since I was 16 years old,
thanks to the surname I got from my dad,
but I get up and train,
I go out for a run, and thanks to that,
I've earned my money.
I have never disrespected his mom
and not because I don't want to.
If you think
my mom had to go through some bad stuff,
his mom had it much worse. Poor thing.
It is so lame to be
the victim of your traumas.
Nicole said that and my dad…
He won't lock her away.
But if I keep saying stuff,
he comes and locks me up.
What's your problem?
That's my problem
and that's where all my anger comes from.
You might be my brother,
but I don't want to have anything
to do with you ever again.
I don't respect you whatsoever.
I don't care about that.
I care about
what they do to turn my dad against me.
That he could lock me away or say things
just because the people closest to him
don't like me.
We haven't talked ever since.
[tense pensive music playing]
I have nothing personal against Omar.
He has got so many things about me wrong.
I hope that he'll realize that with time.
It's just if I see anyone making a face,
I'll throw them out.
I just don't think they'll dare.
Look, honey. You never know.
It all depends on who you invite.
You know what?
I don't want to talk about this anymore.
-It's like--
-It's stressing you out.
-It's making me--
-It stresses you out.
And I don't want that.
[Omar] Nicole
came up with the idea
to start a group chat,
but she forgot
that no one talks to each other.
No, I mean, that's fine.
I hope it's all for the best.
[upbeat music playing]
[Omar] My dad used to be…
I said "used to be"
because they don't let him anymore.
He used to be so…
My dad gave us everything.
We were his everything.
Now, my relationship with my dad is…
well, very different.
He told me, "Myriam used to show me
your videos when you were around here."
She wanted to see us burn, I mean.
Work two, four. Come. Short ones.
One, two, three, four.
Why is your wife saying stuff?
[Omar] Nicole, our half-sister…
I love her so much.
Right now we're a little estranged,
but we've had our great moments.
[soft music playing]
Well, you know,
Christmas has great moments
when we all went to a room
and played hide and seek or…
[soft music continues]
I'm fine with Nicole.
It's her mom I have issues with,
but the girl…
Well, it bummed her out. I get it.
But I'm not a phony person.
I mean, I can't say,
"Oh, no, I wish we could mend things."
I'm a very proud person.
But I don't know.
I don't think it's wrong.
It's all right. If we mend things, good.
If we don't, that's good too.
If you want me with you,
well, that's fine.
You know what? Let me call your dad.
NICOLE'S APARTMEN
Right now.
What is that old man up to?
[line rings]
-Sir?
-[Julio] What's up, big guy?
That witch again?
You're happy without me, aren't you,
you damn fatty?
This is the life I like
and the life I deserve.
[Myriam]
What are you up to in your hometown?
Trying to survive
this damned hot weather we have over here.
But you couldn't wait to be over there.
Be happy there.
-Look, I'm with a chubby girl here.
-[chuckles]
I'll put a wig and a dress on Silva
and he'll sleep with me from now on.
-I always knew.
-Oh, no.
[Myriam] I always knew.
You'll turn 80
and Silva will continue
to sleep with you or what?
[Julio] I can't sleep on my own.
Such a curious thing, you see?
My aunt, Angelina…
She died there at home
in one of the rooms.
So when we acted out,
they would send us to that room.
Since then, I started
feeling scared of sleeping alone.
I'm starting to get worried.
[Silva] It's not true, ma'am.
All of a sudden, he tells me,
"Get on the bed, big guy."
[laughs]
[Julio] Hey, guess what?
-What's up?
-Omar went to the gym
and he surprised me there.
-Would you look at that.
-We talked. I think he's doing very well.
Thank God,
he seems much better.
And that…
You know…
-how I get.
-I'm glad, darling. That's great.
Hey, so should I add him
to the chat of wishes or what?
-[Julio] What?
-[Nicole] Is it the right time?
-There you go with your bullshit.
-Oh, no. Don't you start.
-Forget about all your bullshit.
-Yes. Don't start. I'll add him.
I'll add Omar right now
to the chat of wishes.
No, Omar will come up
with some other bullshit!
-Okay.
-Okay.
You know I don't like that shit.
-Omar will come up with some bullshit!
-Did you watch--
Did you watch what I sent?
Yes. All bullshit.
Okay, my love.
I'm not asking here.
You know I want that party.
-We want a party.
-[Myriam] We want a party.
[Nicole] We want a party.
I'm not all that convinced, really.
No. Don't fuck with me.
If I don't get my party,
you'll continue to sleep with Silva
for as long as you live.
[Julio and Silva laugh]
-[Silva] No! Why are you punishing me?
-[comical music playing]
No. Quit your bullshit.
Bye, Dad.
I'll put a skirt and a wig on Silva
-and that's it, you know?
-[Silva laughs]
-No!
-I'll start looking for your tuxedo.
That's what the chat of wishes is for.
Everything we wish for there
gets fulfilled.
[Julio] With all due respect,
stop it with your bullshit.
-You know I don't like those things.
-[Nicole] Get over yourself.
-You're wearing a groom's gown.
-[Julio] Bullshit!
Bye!
[Nicole humming "Bridal Chorus"]
What?
[laughs]
-Don't let him complain about a thing.
-Right…
Son of a bitch.
Let's go to bed already, Silva.
-[Silva] Did she hang up?
-She hung up, damn it.
[laughs]
[Silva] Damn!
-[Julio] But you're…
-What wig should I put on today?
You're sleeping on the floor.
You're an idiot. Quit your bullshit.
Out of love, my dad has always wanted
to check me into rehab.
[somber music playing]
But it didn't work.
[Julio Junior] I was just a kid
who had so many problems,
like my parents' divorce
and my dad's addiction.
Despite all that,
I did things
that no one expected me to do.
I went undefeated, I was world champion,
I earned millions of dollars,
and still have to hear my dad say,
"My son could have made it in boxing.
We should be like dad and son."
I'm Julio César Chávez Junior
and out of all the Chávez,
I'm the one people like the most.
[laughs]
