The Manny (2023) s01e03 Episode Script

1
I'm not sure if Jimena deals
with the ranches' accounts.
I think her cousin, that Rogelio guy,
is the one in charge of that.
But, you know,
I'm glad I opened those files,
because there was a picture of me
with my dad.
Can you imagine if she'd seen it?
Listen, what if I tell Jimena
I saw the papers?
No. You can't do that!
She could be in on all this treachery.
You're absolutely right, godmother.
As usual.
I love you.
[kisses]
I love you, and I
[kisses] love you.
-Bye, you little cuties.
-Bye!
-I'll see you later!
-Bye!
Oh, hey, tomorrow is Valentine's Day.
Did you plan on going out?
No.
Because you three are my Valentines.
See you all later!
-Bye!
-Bye, Mama!
[phone chimes]
[sultry music playing]
[woman on app] Hello, Jimena.
We've got the perfect hunky stud for you!
Do you like him?
[chimes]
[gasps] No!
No, no, no. What did I do?
-[phone chimes]
-[panting]
[man on app]
Hey, buddy, a hot chick liked you!
Is she serious?
[panting]
-Aah!
-What's the matter? You okay?
Yes, yes, yes.
Ev ev everything is perfect.
Uh, okay, see you all later!
-Oh, I'm so sorry!
-Oh! [chuckles]
-Oh! Wow! Hi!
-Hey there.
Oh! Yeah, no, no, I'm all
I'm in such a hurry. I better keep moving.
-Of course
-I'm leaving
-And, uh Bye!
-Have a great day. And good luck.
[sighs]
[theme song playing]
THE MANNY
And what plans do you have
for Valentine's Day, huh? Huh? Huh?
Uh, I don't have any, Martha.
-Uh-huh.
-No.
When it comes to love, I have no luck.
Oh please, come on!
Manny, could you explain love to me?
I don't think I get it.
[Gabriel] Yikes! Sheesh, Leo!
I'm just as confused as you are,
but I'll do what I can to help.
Ask away.
It's just that my homework is
to give a Valentine's present.
And I don't get what the difference is
between love and friendship.
[phone chimes]
[man] Hey, this chick
will slip through your fingers.
-Why don't you tell her you like her?
-Whatcha doin' there?
[Gabriel] Jeez, bro.
You always this nosey?
[Santiago chuckles]
I guess I got a super-like
or whatever it's called
Something tells me though,
it it was a mistake.
-Who is it?
-No! I really can't say.
That means that we know who that was!
[whimsical music playing]
Tell us who she is!
Uh We're getting off subject, okay, guys?
But I can talk about friendship.
For example, back in Tepa,
is one of my very best friends,
my hawthorn tree. It's great!
I give it water and care for it,
and in exchange, it gives us the biggest,
juiciest hawthorn berries
that we then use in making a pie.
Yeah, you're obviously
avoiding our questions.
So, who's the broad?
But trees are easy. Tania's the problem.
What would Tania like, do you think?
Flowers, chocolates What else? Duh.
No, that kind of stuff you give to anyone.
I want to give her
something really special.
No idea what you get someone
with no sense of fashion.
-[snorting]
-Leo, I think she's hungry.
-I'll feed her, don't you worry!
-[laughs]
[Arete squeals, grunts]
[phone slides open]
As you can see in the presentation
that I sent you,
um, the Zamora account
was successfully paid.
[woman on app] Jimena,
your super-like hasn't replied.
What happened? Don't lose your chance.
Upload another pic! Switch up your
Um, I'm sorry.
My cell phone hasn't been working right.
Pretty sure it's a virus.
Oh yeah, of course. It's one of
those cell viruses going around
that gives you a notification
for every super-like, right?
[men laugh]
Anyway, let's focus
on our current business,
as we're able to see
in the Dos Caminos account
-[man on app] Wow, a lobuki likes you
-Gentlemen, stop horsing around.
[men laughing]
We're listening Jimena, please go on.
Uh, so, um, as I was saying,
each of the ranches is late in their
down payments and legal protections.
Therefore, it's been, well,
impossible to proceed with the seizure.
But that's being looked into
by the legal team, right?
Sure, but the protections are worrisome,
even for the lawyers.
There's nothing there
to worry about, cousin.
Truly, Judge Guerrero is going
to decide in our favor.
Well, we better hope.
Is that everything?
Yeah, um, sure. I have nothing to add, so
[Ernesto] Great.
-Excuse me.
-Okay, man.
Did you forget that
the Dos Caminos account is my account?
Course not, sweet cuz.
[clicks tongue]
Hey, you led that meeting quite well.
Mm-hmm. No thanks to
Rogelio's impoliteness.
Oh, hey, so what are you doing
for Valentine's Day?
Oh, Papa,
you know perfectly well, nothing.
No, that's great, I was hoping
you could meet up with Judge Guerrero.
Uh, yeah, of course. Yeah, um, absolutely.
Wow! Thank you
for taking me into account. I mean
Finally!
[laughs] I'm gonna pretend that
I didn't hear that one.
Oh, but there is
something I want you to hear.
You don't need those
ridiculous cell phone apps for dating.
You don't!
[Tania] Okay.
CUPID IN YOUR CLASSROOM
[Spanish music playing faintly]
Let me guess.
You're here to buy some flowers
for yourself.
-Please just move.
-Don't see any other girls in this line.
Do you, Ana Lau?
Um, nope.
But I hear Sofi is super desperate.
Don't be desperate. Someday,
someone will like you for what's inside.
How many, dude?
No, no, no, no. That's so embarrassing!
So embarrassing! I swear it was a mistake.
A mistake, huh?
Freudian slip, I think it's called.
Which indicates
you may super-like Gabriel.
Of course, I like him. He's handsome,
and he's good with the kids.
But not enough to super-like.
You can't tell me lies.
And you can't lie to Vocal Cupid either.
[inhales] I know what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna reach out
to Vocal Cupid's customer support.
-Uh Why?
-Why? What do you mean "why"?
So that they they can remove it,
so it's like I never even sent it.
Trust me, that just won't happen.
[phone ringing]
The super-like is irreversible.
Oh no!
Hey, but not if you can get to his cell
and remove the super-like yourself.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
What's the matter?
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day.
It's your favorite holiday, isn't it?
That was old Sofía.
All it is, is a day that was created
to reinforce generic
and consumeristic stereotypes.
Mmm. I vote Sofía for class president.
Come on, I'm being serious right now!
All this "Cupid in Your Classroom"
is super discriminatory.
See all those roses? Who gets them?
High school girls,
since they all have boobies,
Someone like Tania and all her friends.
Yeah, what about the girls our age?
I'd like to get a rose.
It's all simply too humiliating.
We have to do something to stop it.
I propose a "Cupid-boycott."
[friends] Awesome! A "Cupid-boycott."
Do you think you can help me find
a Valentine's Day present for Tania?
Aw, that's so cute!
Yes. of course, and that's super sweet!
I'll totally help you.
I mean, I've already told her that
you're so worthy of being her boyfriend.
Thanks, Ana Lau, but, um
What about a gift for her?
Ah, yes, so, um
I don't know what to say.
Look, I don't want you to be scared.
No, I don't know.
It's just that Tania is
super, super picky about gifts.
And you can't get her a lousy present
'cause then she's gonna blame it on me.
No way, dude.
She still hasn't shut up about
how bad the gift exchange was
at her mom's last party.
Ah. All right, well, I just thought
you'd know her better than I do
because you're her best friend
and everything, but it's cool.
Oh, okay. Sure, we're best friends.
But, no nope. Sorry. You're on your own.
And this conversation
never happened, okay?
Thanks, bye!
So, did you reply
to the super-like yet, huh?
No, Martha.
Mmm.
You're wasting your opportunity,
I hope you know.
And at your age, with your good looks,
you really should spend
more time taking care of her
and less with your piggy.
[chuckles]
Oh, come on, at least let me see
the girl you're ignoring
-Hey, no-
-Ooh, and let me give her a like for ya.
Have you always been such a snoop, Martha?
[chuckles]
I'm not sure how to handle the super-like.
All I know is that
this woman
[sighs] Martha,
this woman's absolutely ideal.
Aw! [laughs]
But she's also the wrong one,
and that's the problem.
-Mmm
-Want me to help?
You sound like a character on a soap.
"The nine o'clock manny soap opera."
-[chuckles] Or a country song.
-[Martha] Mmm, that works too.
If you reconsider,
if you do want to go out, I can take Leo.
Oh yeah?
And take into account
that's not an offer I make very often.
Hmm?
You should think it over.
Hey! Ever wondered how
the Valentine's Day tradition was born?
Well, stop wondering,
because it's awful, okay?
We should celebrate friendship every day
because everything else is junk
and meant to crush our spirits!
[girl sighs]
-Like having to shave your legs!
-Yeah!
Right! But you can help our cause
with a signature. Arturo!
Aurelio!
Yes, I'm talking about you.
When was the last time you got a flower?
Well, never. By the way, my name is Abel.
Well, there you go!
If you give us your signature,
we'll get rid of
"Cupid in Your Classroom," Armando.
-Abel.
-[Sofía] What?
-You want to end up like Abel?
-No, that's me!
No, don't say that, Armando.
You're cooler than Abel.
Everyone will be if they sign.
This is historical.
-[Tania] Agustín, don't sign it.
-Hmph!
Anyone who would sign
that is a total loser.
-Tania, stop meddling in our business.
-The only losers here are you guys.
-[Leo] Martha, what does love mean to you?
-[Martha] Love is sacrifice, mijo.
It's tending to the needs of others
by cooking their meals, and cleaning
Or doing whatever it might take
to improve someone else's day.
I think that's what love is.
And every day I show my love
[Sofía] There's no way we'll beat them.
We don't have enough signatures.
[Tania laughing] I can't believe it!
-Five hundred orders! No way!
-I know. Me either, right?
I've finished tallying.
Thirty-six people isn't enough to make
them cancel "Cupid in Your Classroom."
-[girl] We couldn't even get Aurelio!
-[indistinct chatter]
I guess we failed, right?
-[Tania] Oh yeah. A lot are for me.
-Yeah
-Um, a lot are for me as well.
-No.
No, no, no, no, no!
Because desperate times call
for the most extreme measures!
And I've just come up
with a very extreme one.
Listen, bring it in.
Martha, do you know
where the manny is right now?
Oh, uh, I think he said
he was gonna take a shower.
Ah.
-You need help with something, hon?
-No. No, thanks. I appreciate that.
[Martha] All right.
["Tú" by Sabino playing on phone]
[Gabriel singing along]
[song stops]
-[Gabriel] Hmm?
-[mutters]
[laughs]
He caught me snoopin' on his cell phone
while he was in the shower.
Okay? God, I keep
looking more like a teenager!
And don't even ask what I saw in there.
Oh! You don't want to tell me
the size of your cowboy's lasso?
No way! He lives with my kids now.
To make matters worse,
I have to tell him I have a date
with Judge Guerrero.
Well, then you'd better go get ready,
and stop spinning your wheels.
Besides, who knows?
Maybe the manny will super-like you back.
I don't want any part in that.
You can't lie to me about this.
Plus, I see your strategy.
You're waiting for his reply.
[Jimena] I'm not! Stop!
But I just had a great idea.
[Arete snorting]
Mommy, can you tell me,
does friendship mean love,
or are those two different things?
Whoa, okay. Uh, well, uh,
friendship is just another type of love.
Those are two different kinds of love,
sweetheart.
So how are they different then?
Well, the the difference is that, uh
When you're in love with someone, um,
they're actually your your best friend.
Yeah, you might love your best friend.
Okay, so if you have a best friend,
you're in love?
No. No, no, no, no, no.
No, I explained that wrong.
Liking someone
isn't the same as being in love.
You can have a friend,
well, who's, uh, very, very attractive,
and they might, um, even work for you,
but, uh, if they work for you,
you're not supposed to date.
Well, what kind of gift
do you give a friend,
and what do you give to someone
that you're in love with?
That I'm in love with?
No! I I'm not in love with anyone.
Eh, but you have to be very careful
with what you give
uh, give to that person
because that person may think that
that that you want something else.
So what if you get it wrong then?
Oh! No, no, no, it's not good, trust me.
[phone chiming]
[man on app] Hey, buddy, are you gonna
make your move, or what?
[door closes]
["Can't Get Enough Of Your Love, Babe"
by Barry White playing]
Oh, oh, babe ♪
Oh, babe ♪
My darling, I ♪
Can't get enough of your love, babe ♪
-I was just coming
-Oh, hey, I
-Sorry, go ahead.
-to see if
-What? [laughs]
-What? Oh!
Forgive me, you you can speak first.
Uh, I, yeah. Yes, I'm going out later
because I I have, uh, a date.
And, well, you know,
because it's a date, I won't be
I might be home late 'cause, you know
[chuckles] Uh, what were you gonna say?
No. Mmm, nothing.
It wasn't that important
because I already forgot.
But But have
but have a good time going out.
I'm going to text you where I'm going
in case you can't get me
and there is an emergency.
-Um Send and done!
-Sure, okay.
[laughs] Well, I better run.
[door opens]
Oh! Uh, by the way,
it's a great place to eat
if you're ever looking to
take someone to a, you know
Like a really a romantic spot.
Try it! [laughs]
Bye!
[door closes]
You freakin' idiot!
Would you stop talking
to me already? What now, huh?
[man on app] Hurry up, buddy!
[Mexican music playing]
By the way,
Ernesto spoke of you very highly.
I think you'll find
we have a lot in common.
[chuckles]
Shall I order for you?
Or would you like to see the menu?
I'll be fine with a uh, like a salad?
A salad?
No, really, if I eat a heavy meal,
I kind of can't concentrate on
on the business, you know?
[Guerrero] Work?
I mean, who wants to talk about that?
Oh, and speaking of work,
it would really help me out
to focus on Dos Caminos,
just for a few minutes.
I'm gonna stop you with me.
I only ask two things:
Don't be so formal.
Call me Ric.
Okay?
And two, I want this meal to sustain us,
so I'll order for the table.
Sound all right?
-Mm-hmm.
-Salad. That's funny.
Are you ready for dinner?
No, thanks, Martha.
I've got that event at school.
Oh, yeah!
Martha, I was hoping I could
take you up on your offer?
Martha's your super-like? [laughs]
[laughing]
No. Don't get confused, hmm?
-Of course, I'll watch Leo.
-[Gabriel] Thanks, Martha.
I'll see you dudes later.
[gentle music playing]
[kids chattering]
Now's the perfect time to do it.
-You know what you have to do.
-[girls] Yes.
Very good.
Don't forget we don't have a lot of time
to get things started,
so we have to be fast, and
Hey. I want to help.
I heard you yesterday.
I seriously wanna help you.
Everyone should be included.
Okay. So, let's get down to business.
Come on!
FLOWERS VALENTINA
Roses in the flower pot.
I repeat, roses in the flower pot.
Copy.
-All the orders are in?
-Yes.
You're gonna receive them
from the florist, right?
-Because we have to organize
-Oh!
-Who did this?
-Ugh!
-Samantha, Samantha, Samantha!
-Let it go!
Phase one, complete.
-It's your turn now, heart-breaker.
-Cupid's in sight.
Copy that.
Jaime, what's up dude?
Hey, I could take those for you,
no worries.
[clattering]
[insect buzzing]
Wha!
Hey, Santi, what's something you can give
to someone you love a lot?
That's what I've been trying to figure out
for 24 hours now, dude.
Everyone's answer is different.
Sorry, I don't know
what else to say, kiddo.
Martha says that knowing what
the one you love needs is what matters.
[Arete squeals softly]
Come on, are you kidding, Leo?
She pooped! I told you,
Arete can't be in my room!
She has a wooden cage, doesn't she?
Hurry, Leo. Clean it up.
Get in there, girlie, it's time to go.
God, Leo! It still smells! Ugh!
[Guerrero] Happy Valentine's Day.
If I get this ranch I'm looking at,
I'd love for you to see it.
I'll cook you something so delicious,
like something you've never eaten.
So you're buying a ranch?
Yes, well, I already bought it,
but I can't move in 'cause the ranchers
are being stubborn and all.
So, everything's slowed to a halt.
But as soon as the seizure is performed,
they won't be able to do anything
about it.
Uh, you must be talking about one of
the Dos Caminos ranches, am I right?
Yeah, oh, tell me about that.
It sounds super interesting to me.
No, that bores me.
I don't want to talk about work.
I'd rather hear about you.
It's not every day, you know,
that I meet such a lovely lady.
Um, would you mind if I just went
to the restroom?
-[Guerrero] Of course. Allow me.
-Thank you.
Sure.
What are you doing here?
Well, you said it was a nice place to eat,
so I made a date.
But her her grandma got sick, so she
Well, she's not coming anymore.
Ah, he doth protest too much!
You ever heard that?
-Huh?
-[Jimena] Ugh, forget it!
And who's got Leo?
Oh, he's okay. He's with Martha right now.
[scoffs] Look, I don't want to
have Martha watching my kids.
-She's really not good with children.
-Okay, fine, I get your point.
I was just heading back anyway. Okay?
You know what?
I I'll tell you what we'll do.
Since you're here,
will you help me to get away?
[Sofía] Mission Rose Hunt was a success.
Well done, soldier.
I've got this thing from here.
[chuckles]
[gentle music playing]
[tinkling music playing]
[sighs]
I was thinking in your absence,
would you maybe like to
have dessert over at my place?
Um Why don't we speak a bit more
about that ranch instead?
That sounds like a pretty great thing
to get into.
-Who was the agreement with?
-Seriously?
Are we still talking about work?
Well, I guess I should've made it clear,
but I'm here to talk work.
Me too, but then
you walked in looking like that.
Not to mention, I saw you
You have an account on Vocal Cupid.
So, why don't we just be honest
and we can call this meal
what it really is?
It's a date.
I'm sorry, but you're completely wrong.
And just because I dress nice
and use a dating app,
it doesn't mean
I'm here to go home with you.
Honey, I'm sorry!
I was lagging so I didn't interrupt
your work thing, and now I'm super late.
-How was your day? I missed you.
-I'm fine.
Happy Valentine's Day.
["Quiero Que Seas Tú"
by Dulce y Agraz playing]
[Guerrero] And you are?
This is my boyfriend.
And And we're leaving.
-Great. Guess what? I have a surprise!
-[Jimena] Mm-hmm.
[Gabriel] Excuse us.
Kissing was not supposed
to be a part of the plan!
I mean, are you crazy?
Well, I just wanted to show that guy
that you're not here to flirt, you know?
I could see what he wanted
when I walked in.
And you don't treat a lady that way!
I'll see you back at the house.
[engine turns off]
Brenda, I need you to check all the papers
that have to do with Dos Caminos.
Apparently, the judge made an agreement
with someone at the agency
to keep the ranch.
I'm sure it's Rogelio.
[Tania] There's something fishy
going on, dude.
Hey! Hey, hey, hey!
I just talked to the florist.
He said he already delivered the flowers.
They can't deliver twice,
and they're not gonna reimburse us.
Then we'll just make something up
and keep searching, dude.
[Sofía over mic] Hello!
Valentine's Day is a day
full of contradictions.
And it's not only meant for those
who have a boyfriend or girlfriend.
It's a day where everybody deserves
to receive a flower and feel special.
Because it's really not about
who's the best looking
-I don't get it.
-or the most popular.
And it definitely shouldn't be a contest
to see who can get the most.
Because today is about being
the best versions of ourselves.
And that's why this first rose
is for Abel.
[gasps]
["TQB" by Kirnbauer playing]
[chuckles]
And the second is for you.
Because I know how much you like flowers.
And for being a great sister.
[all] Aw.
Thanks, Santi.
I love you so much.
Well, does everyone have their flower?
[all] Yeah!
Tania
This flower is from Santi.
He's still trying
to find the perfect present for you.
Thank you, Sof.
You're welcome.
[Santiago] Tania, come here.
So, I got you something.
I hope you like it.
As long as you have one of these,
no matter where you are,
you can hear the sea.
[conch whooshing]
That's so cool.
Santi, thanks.
I love anything to do with the sea.
["TQB" continues playing]
Dude! Check out what he got me.
Since when is polyester delicate?
Oh! Jime, what would happen if
I mix colored clothes
with white clothes with a little color?
[chuckles]
Um
I really want to apologize
for earlier, Gabriel.
-Here.
-Oh yeah?
Well, hey, we should have
complicated days more often
if they end with us taking shots.
[Jimena] Oh!
I made a huge mistake at dinner.
All that guy wanted was to get me in bed.
It's like a woman has no right
to dress well for a work dinner
and have an account on Vocal Cupid.
Yeah, for real. It was so obvious that
dumbass wasn't taking you seriously.
What I don't get is why you would
even go out with that kind of guy.
My papa didn't want his little girl
to be alone on Valentine's Day.
Except he said it was a work thing,
and when I got there, I suddenly realized
that it actually wasn't.
Oh, and I've been wanting to,
um, talk to you about something
[whimsical music playing]
Uh, that super-like
that I gave you. [chuckles]
Uh, see, it was an accident,
and well,
my finger slipped on the phone, so
-One of those
-Yeah. Gotcha.
Um, you think you're doing one thing
and then suddenly you did something else.
I mean, I, um And I'm sorry.
I swear it didn't mean anything.
I I didn't want you
to get the wrong idea.
I don't want you to think
that I was hitting on you.
No, no, don't be silly.
You know, I was pretty sure
it was a mistake because [chuckles]
You can't date an employee.
Right. You're our nanny now,
which means, you work for me
Oh yeah, that would be inappropriate
It would be a mistake
'cause there's nothing going on.
I mean, how? I can't
-Between us?
-Right.
-No, it can't happen
-Mm-hmm.
So
No.
No.
[gentle music playing]
Um, hey, have you been in love ever?
Yeah, sure. A long time ago.
And then, you know, stuff happens
and it was done.
Well, there's a good reason to drink.
Cheers to all of us
alone on Valentine's Day.
-Right?
-[both laugh]
[gasps] I'm so sorry.
My goodness, I'm so clumsy. I'm so sorry!
-There.
-I can do it.
-Oh, jeez
-Don't worry, it'll dry.
-I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
-Uh What for?
["Corazoncito De Melon"
by Gabacho playing]
-[phone ringing]
-One second.
Hi, Papa!
[Ernesto] How do you
suddenly have a boyfriend?
Judge Guerrero called me to tell me
your boyfriend showed up
in the middle of your work thing.
-Now he wants nothing to do with you.
-Look, there's no boyfriend.
It was Gabriel, the male nanny.
And yes, he was pretending
because the guy you set me up with
was harassing me.
He harassed you? What?
Well, it's stupid,.
He didn't do anything actually.
He didn't do anything to me.
Except for hitting on me the whole time.
Well, sweetie, you should have just
cleared the air with him about it then.
Now everyone will think that
you have a lover living with you already.
You're the only reason
I went on this horrible date
that you set up on Valentine's Day.
You told me that we were gonna
discuss work. So, don't play dumb!
I didn't intend
for your dinner to be romantic.
I just the thought
the judge was a good man.
Very successful, pretty decent.
That way, anybody that's critical
of your personal life
would have to reconsider.
Papa, please stop worrying
about my reputation.
Okay?
-Bye.
-Yeah, b
But

Is there anything I can do?
No, there's nothing you can do
about the overprotective father
that I've got.
But he's mine.
Oh well. It's time I go to bed.

[Tania] The best Valentine's present.
-[Arete snorting]
-Look what I did, Arete.
Happy Valentine's Day, my piggy friend!
No, godmother, I don't think

But no way can you tell her
what we're doing.
Okay, then, I won't.
