[radio presenter] It's 5:14 a.m.
right here in Mexico City,
and, believe it or not,
you can already feel the heat.
We'll be experiencing
high temperatures today in the city,
so to cool things off,
let's start the day off fresh
with some refreshing music.
You're listening to La Primera on 95.1 FM.
["Esclavo y Amo",
Los Pasteles Verdes playing]
[Marcus, sighs] You should have
let me charge them.
[Marigaby] Why?
So you could flirt with them, bro?
[Marcus] What's wrong with that?
Shit. You're gonna be a doctor soon.
But I still need these flirting talents
I'm blessed with.
Besides, I'm doing it for the family.
Imagine if I didn't.
- You know I'm faithful, like a dog.
- Mm-hmm.
Especially now that Crisis she's
Crisis is what?
- Hmm?
- Cris is what?
No, nothing.
Dammit, man.
- Fuck, bro.
- For fuck's sake.
I mean, shit, aren't you guys careful?
Yeah, we are, all the time.
Well, usually.
- No, man. What?
- Listen
Are you gonna have it?
I don't know, Doc.
I just know I don't wanna do
the same thing our parents did.
You know?
That's the market
where they have the giant quesadillas
that Julio likes so much.
I'll see if I have any cash.
- Where are you going?
- I'm seeing if I have any money.
First off, they're called machetes, okay?
And second,
I'm trying to talk to you here, dude.
But you're being a little hard
on Mom and Dad.
I mean, they weren't that bad.
Come on, they did raise Doctor Tamayo, eh?
They were a mess.
Don't be an ass, especially
now that Dad is recovering well.
[rumbling]
- Oh, shit.
- What the fuck?
- Earthquake!
- Fuck! It's an earthquake, man!
[groans]
- What's happening?
- Get out. Get out now!
Okay.
- [Marcus] What a mess.
- [drivers clamoring]
- Oh, shit.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah. You?
- Yeah.
That was a pretty violent earthquake, huh?
I didn't hear the alarm.
I didn't hear the alarm.
No, I didn't hear anything.
Let's calm down.
- What's up with those clouds?
- Wait, sis, stay here.
- Hold my hand, bro, please.
- Yeah, sure. Take it easy, Doc.
What about Julio?
[electricity crackles]
- [people screaming]
- [crashing, rumbling]
[car alarm blaring]
[Marigaby] I don't know if you know this,
but Mexico City
has some big-ass earthquakes.
But, really, what did anyone expect
after building it over a body of water?
And being in a high seismicity zone?
In short, it shakes a lot,
and it shakes hella ugly.

No one is dead, okay?
The devil looks after his own.
[grunts]
But we can't stay here doing nothing.
Pop, Doctor Raúl told us
that you need to stay in bed now.
It could be bad for you.
No, no, I've rested for two days.
It's plenty.
There's no signal.
We need to go find your brother
and sister. Let's get out there and help.
Okay, but only if you sit.
Come on.

Return to your rooms until
you're requested to leave. Remain calm.
Return to your rooms

Have you heard from them yet?
I'm trying to track them, but
there's no signal.
- What are you doing out here?
- Hey, I'm okay.
No, no, no. You need to rest
so that your heart can get better.

Not breathing.
In hypovolemic shock probably.

Is that you?
Yeah. You can help me here, Bernie.
We're gonna need some oxygen.
You see the ambulance over there?

in the side door. Can you get it?
Go! Please, Bernie.

I'm gonna call security. Hear me?
Take it easy. Take it easy. Take it easy.

Of course. Don't worry.
I can let them know you're okay,
but you have to look after your father.
Okay, Julio? Take care of him.
Don't let him get excited.
Yes, I'm taking care of him.
I left him resting.
- Okay, inhale, and now exhale.
- [wheezing]
Hmm.
- Are you a doctor?
- I'm a paramedic.
- Come closer. Smell her breath.
- Huh.
[wheezing]
- Please, Doctor. I
- Give me room, please.
Are you checking for diabetes? I detect
an odor of apples on her breath.
You just let us do our job here,
if you don't mind.
It's a panic attack. I want you
to give her five milligrams of diazepam.
- Yes, Doctor, but
- Just do what I tell you.
Look, it's been a really long day. If you
wanna save lives, start with your own.
Lie down in your bed and rest.
[wheezing continues]
Relax. I'll be back.
How's my actress?
One day I'll make you watch my film.
- Just tell me when you're free.
- Alright.
I didn't wanna go to the festival anyway.
But my girlfriend
was pretty thrilled about it all.
And now I wanna go.
[grunts]
So, where does it hurt now?
[groans] I don't know. All over.
I'll give you some medication
for the pain.
When do you think I'm going to be better?
Don't worry about that now, okay, Nalle?
[woman] Excuse us!
Coming through! Coming through!
[groaning]
I'm gonna help out.
Yo, handsome.
Take care of yourself.
Huh. You too.
Have some water.
You've been inhaling debris.
How's your hand?
The same.
- We're gonna find your mom.
- [man] Over here!
Over here! He needs help!
Hey. Guys, get out of here.
It smells like gas over there.
- Come on. Let's go.
- We have to find my mama.
Let's go. I smell the fucking gas, okay?
- We'll find your mom.
- Do you promise?
I swear, but we'd better get out,
I mean it.
- Give me your good hand.
- Yeah.
Come on, let's hurry.
- Relax.
- [man] The roof's unstable!
- The roof's unstable!
- This way.
[first responder] Everyone out!
Gas leak! Everyone out! Gas leak!
- [yelling]
- Hey, hey, this way.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
[screaming]
Just stay calm, alright?
Take it easy. Easy.
You alright? There's a space there. See?
Stay calm.
Right there. There. Find room.
Let's see. Are you good?
- You okay? Hey, wait.
- My mama.
- No, hold on. Wait. Listen to me.
- My mama.
We can't stay here, okay?
Come on. Come on.
Marcus! Marcus!
Hey. What's happening? Are you okay?
I'm still here.
There's a shit load of gas.
Can you look after this kid?
His mom is still trapped inside.
Yeah, but where's Bernie?
- Fuck, I have no idea.
- Find him, please.
We better go.
Go look for Bernie. Be careful!
Stay with her. She's my sister.
I'll go find your mom
and I'm coming right back, okay?
Stay with her. Alright?
[coughs]
Doctor, we're out of IVs.
I have a few. Look after the girl.
- Need anything now?
- No, thank you. Take care.
[exhales]
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
You got this.
Come on, come on, come on, come on, now.
[Carmen] Tamayo Ambulance 36. Tamayo 36.
Message for Ambulance 36.
Your father and brother are alright.
Respond if you can, please.
- Message for Tamayo Ambulance 36.
- [man] Hey, we need you now!
Your father and brother are safe.
- Lupe! Take these, Lupe.
- [coughing, wheezing]
What's wrong, Nalle?
Back. Lie back.
I'm fucked.
Anybody know her blood pressure?
Swabs and needles over here, please!
Sweetie, try to stay with me now, okay?
Nallely? Give me a swab.
Sweetie, sweetie, sweetie, sweetie.
Nallely?
[Martin] Canela!
Canela!
Canela!
[Ramón] Did you get ahold of Carmencita?
Yeah, she said she'd try to reach
Marigaby and Marcus.
Are they coming to get us?
- No.
- [gasping, wheezing]
No? Why not?
[sniffs]
She's hypoglycemic.
She needs an injection of insulin.
Go get a nurse now!
[wheezing]
[electricity crackles]
[woman] Help us! It's too heavy.
- Mama?
- [first responder] Quiet!
- Mama?
- Hey, you shouldn't be here.
I have a kid here. Someone help me out.
[man] Clear the building now.
I have a kid here, guys. Help me out.
Stay out here.
Mama!
Mama!
- Mama!
- [man] Yeah, just keep searching.
Keep going. Just in case. Keep going.
[man 2] I'm over here!
- What happened?
- They're all too fucking busy.
They ignored me. Here's the insulin.
[sighs]
Shit.
[Ramón grunts]
I'll do it.
Pull it out slowly
so you don't get air in it.
Slowly. No air.
Steady. Just relax, Julio.
You wanna get the muscle. Steady.
Perfect.
Very good.
What are you doing?
[Ramón] She was hyperventilating.
We gave her insulin.
[Julio] Is she okay?
- You saved her.
- [chuckles]
You were right. She's stable now.
[Ramón] That's my son.
[Ramón chuckles]
[man] Come on, let's do it! Come on!
We have one right here! Come on!
- [man 2] Alright, everyone, come on.
- Let's go! Let's go!
[Nico] Please help her.
My mom is under there.
- [man] Coming. But you can't stay here.
- I just wanna help find her.
[man] No, I understand,
but you need to get out.
What are you even doing here?
Stay out of the way.
My mom is stuck in there. Please help her.
- [man] Okay, what's your name?
- Nico. Please save her.
Please, mister.
[man 2] Listen, Nico,
you need to leave here. It's unstable.
No! I just wanna help find her.
My mom is under there.
Listen to me, Nico. You have to clear out.
Nico! Hey, buddy, hold on!
I know that kid!
- [man 2] Nico, it's gonna collapse.
- Mama!
- Hey, hey, can you help this boy out?
- I know him! Nico, come over here, buddy.
I left you outside.
What are you doing here?
- Can you hear my mom?
- Nico, it's very dangerous.
- That's why I left you with my sister.
- You have to go, Nico.
- Watch it, buddy. Get him out of here.
- You need to get out.
[Marcus] What are you doing? Nico, come
on, man. We're going to find her, okay?
- But you have to go now.
- I can hear my mom.
[whistle blowing]
- [woman] Quiet, please!
- [man] Quiet!
- [woman] Please, I need quiet.
- [man] Please. We're trying to hear.
[man] I hear someone! Over here!
[patients coughing]
[paramedic] Breathe.
Relax and just breathe.
What's my color?
- Excuse me?
- What color do I have?
It's black.
[Marigaby] Can you fix this?
Those assholes wanted to sell it to me.
Can you believe that?
How's my star now?
Shit, Nallely, you are so strong.
I I know my color.
[Marigaby] Sometimes it's fucking hard,
but I don't get to decide who lives.
Even though I want to with all my heart.
[man] On three! One, two
- [man 2] Okay, pull back!
- [man 3] All together! Center!
- [man 2] Yes, sir!
- [dog barking]
- How's it going?
- [woman] All good! Looking good!
- It's stable. Guys, stay right there.
- [man 3] In the middle now, please!
Center it up!
- [woman] Almost there. Come on.
- [dog barking]
Yeah, that's it.
[man 3] Okay, okay, just a little further.
- [woman] Good, good. Feels safe.
- Yeah, feels good. I got you.
- [woman] It's more stable.
- A little more.
[woman] Good, good.
- Guys, be careful, please.
- That's great.
[woman] Hold it tight.
[Nico's mother] Ah!
[woman] Slow it down. Slow down.
[man] Pulling up!
[man 2] Slowly!
- [man] Pull!
- [Marcus] Yes, sir!
- [man] Got it?
- [man 2] Yeah, yeah.
- They're pulling her out right there. See?
- Yeah!
- Don't worry.
- [man] Pull!
[man 2] Keep going! Slowly!
- Mom! Mom!
- There she is.
- Mom, it's Nico!
- She's okay, thank God.
[woman] Doing great. Don't worry.
- [man] Got her!
- [Bernardo] Just stay here. It's okay.
[woman] She's out!
Paramedics, get ready to transport her.
- [man] We got her!
- [man 2] She's out! They got her!
- [cheering, applause]
- She's okay. She's out. We did it.
Wait, wait. You have to stay here.
Stay here. Try to be calm.
Just wait here a minute, Nico. Stay here.
- [Nico] Mom!
- [Bernardo] They did it.
- Mom!
- Wait. Hey!
Mom, I'm coming!
Hey, pretty boy!
- Take this. Put it around your waist.
- Like this?
- Yeah, that's it. Now pull it.
- [man] Yeah, that's right.
- [man 2] That's it!
- [man] Good work.
[man 2] Come on!
I was asking how you were doing,
and I'm told you were a hero?
No, Doctor. The only hero here is Julio.
- [Dr. Luna] Really?
- You nailed it, my boy.
- Yeah.
- Well done, Julio.
Now you have to make sure
your dad stays in bed, okay?
Or else your sister is gonna kill us both.
Hear me?
- Mm-hmm.
- [cell phone chimes]
Gotta go. Yes?
[giggles]
[Marcus] Nico!
Nico!
Nico!
- [Nico's mother whimpers]
- Mama!
Careful. Careful.
My baby!
Careful.
Are you the doctor who's in charge here?
I'm not a doctor, I'm a medical student,
but so many of us made it work.
- Great job.
- Thanks.
[whimpers]
[Crisis] Oh, my love. My love,
I called you like a thousand times.
Are you okay?
Damn, Cris. It was pretty hard, babe.
I saved a mom and her kid, and
I swear I won't leave you two.
Never.
I love you. Cris.
Hey, baby, don't worry.
I really love you.
I love you, Marcus, so, so much.
Be careful.
[Marigaby] For fuck's sake.
This one's left us out of ammo.
Whatever. In the end, we got it done.
As you could see, every little bit helps.
Did you notice all the hands
that came together for this shit?
Firefighters, paramedics, volunteers,
rescue teams, even dogs,
girls, boys, senior citizens
All doing their best
to help any way they could.
Everyone doing their part, not worrying
about how different we all think
or that we don't know each other.
It's a shame that we tend to forget
we can always be this way.
Are you okay? I'm going to the hospital
Everything okay around here,
text whenever you can
Hope you're okay,
your dad and brother are fine
I'm okay
Tired, but okay
Tamayo.
[sighs]
I still can't believe it.
I respect you, really.
Thanks.
I guess the city had to collapse
so I could get to know you better.
[giggles]
Yeah, okay, but next time
we could be hit with a tsunami,
so bring lifesavers and everything.
For real.
A few hours ago, I lost track of you
I was scared.
Well, I'm here.
What's this?
- [applause, cheering]
- [man] Way to go, everyone!
[woman] Good work.
- [woman 2] She's gonna make it.
- [man] Great job.
[woman] That's amazing.
Congratulations, everybody.
- [woman 2] Bravo.
- See you, Nico.
- Thank you.
- Take care.
- You too.
- Take care of your mother.
[dispatcher]
Unit 236, I'm gonna need some help.
- I didn't think we'd find her.
- It was fucking tough, bro.
I've never felt an earthquake like this.
- No?
- No.
You kick ass, pretty boy.
- Really?
- You're not a softie.
[soldier] Check for a response first.
Confirm they're dead.
Don't use the black card unless
you confirm they're deceased. Go now.
Hey, bro? Over here.
Two sitting, one lying down.
Okay.
Careful with the ones in uniform.
This girl, that guy, and that one.
What? Doc, she's a black cross.
I said take her too, okay?
Let's go.
Come on. Let's move over here.
- Okay, lower it.
- How?
It has a lever thing.
- Right here.
- Okay.
Two
- Help me here.
- Yeah.
Look. Don't let her move, okay?
Slide your hand underneath
and grab both sides.
[Bernardo] Okay.
Doc?
I just told you. Please.
Excuse me. Right here?
Not you. Sorry.
You, bro.
Put Stretch her other leg.
[siren wailing]
[groaning]
[Marigaby]
Remember what you said to me, Nallely?
You said you're an actress.
[chuckles] I'm almost done, love.
Here you go.
I told you you're my star, right?
I know you can hear me now.
Even unconscious,
I'm sure you're listening,
and I need you to fight.
because you're almost at the hospital.
How about it, Doctor? How is she?
Better. I'm giving her oxygen.
[Marigaby] Okay.
- Grab it here, bro.
- Okay.
[Marigaby] Careful.
She's in critical condition, okay?
- Come on.
- Hey, stay with them, okay?
I'll check her in
and then we'll come back.
- Good. Let's go.
- Come on.
- [Marigaby] Emergency!
- Help us!
Female patient in shock
with a fracture exposed.
Take her straight in!
Take her straight in!
- She won't make it.
- Easy, Doc, easy.
Hey, your friend.
- Let's go, Doc.
- Okay.
Hey, I'm shitting my pants, Doc.
I'm gonna be a dad.
[sighs] No, bro.
It's not the best day
to make that decision, alright?
Just take a breather.
Auntie Marigaby.
[scoffs]
You dumbass.
[line ringing]
Don't say anything yet.
- [Ramón] Baby girl, how are you?
- We're fine.
Kicking big ass, Ramón. Haven't stopped.
Where were you during the earthquake?
Did you rescue a lot of people?
We did everything
we could possibly do, Pa.
I saved a lady,
and I'm not scared of blood now, guys.
[Marigaby] How are you feeling, Dad?
Weren't you stressed
because you couldn't do anything?
No, no, no, not at all. I knew you two
would show us all what you're made of.
It is important that you take care
of yourself and get some rest.
You better rest up now as well.
You've earned it.
I'll be alright.
Yeah, we'll be alright.
Call your mom,
just to let her know you're okay.
[Marigaby] Your turn, dude. You do it.
I'm not calling that woman.
- Please. Call her.
- I said call her.
- Make sure she's alright.
- Yeah, I'll call in a minute.
- [siren wailing]
- What happened?
Wait a minute, Pop.
- Marigaby?
- What is this?
Dad, we'll try to see you later, okay?
- Alright.
- Okay.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye.
Hey, what's going on?
[resident] They told us
we can't stay here right now.
They need to see how much
structural damage has been done.
- That's our building.
- Sorry. I'll be back.
- [Marigaby] What happened?
- I'm sorry. It's cordoned off.
