Daughter from Another Mother (2021) s02e05 Episode Script

[knocking on door]
- [knocking on door]
- [Ceci] Mom? Mom, are you there?
[Juan Carlos grunts]
I'm here, what's up?
[Ceci] Alta says breakfast is ready.
Yeah, uh
You go ahead. I'll come down in a minute.
[sighs]
Morning.
- [whispering] Let's go. You go that way.
- [grunting]
Jump out the balcony.
I'm their father.
Who cares if they see me?
This was a mistake, Juan Carlos.
Yeah, a wonderful mistake.
Don't get this wrong.
We were drunk and nostalgic. Hurry up!
[whimsical music playing]
[grunting]
- [yelps]
- [thuds on ground]
[sighs]
Juan Carlos, why are you here so early
and wearing the suit you wore at the prom?
I felt like having breakfast here.
I'm out of clean clothes.
My washing machine's broken.
[chuckles] That's the oldest excuse
in the book, Juan Carlos.
Shall we go in?
Yeah.
[Romelia exhaling forcefully]
Good morning!
Surprise!
Your dad came to get breakfast
and to use the washing machine, Alta.
Kids, no whispering at the table.
Ah! I missed this so much!
Last night was fun, huh?
- [chuckles]
- Thank you, Alta.
Ceci, what about that boy?
His name is Darío.
We're officially dating.
[gasps] That seems quick.
We could invite him over
for dinner, right?
Juan Carlos, do me a favor.
Let's go talk outside.
Bring your juice, come on.
[Juan Carlos] Your mom saw me.
What can I do?
Let's just tell them
their parents are back together.
- We're not back together!
- [sighing]
It was the booze.
Ana, we love each other.
We've been married 20 years,
of course we love each other.
I need to be alone to think. I need space.
We should only see each other
during couple's counseling.
Dancing to our song last night,
it dawned on me.
You still love me, Ana.
Oh please. Goodbye.
[door opens]

[bell tinkling]
How was your Sunday?
[inhales deeply] Oof.
Juan Carlos spent the night
after the prom.
So, you're not mad at him anymore?
He's a liar.
After all those lies,
I simply can't trust him.
I get it. Trusting again is very hard.
It happened to me with Pablo.
I'm so glad you're here.
I missed my friend.
[Mariana] I missed you too.
But I really miss Valentina.
How about a play date, the four of us?
Are you free tomorrow night?
We're doing a brainstorming session
for the app's slogan.
We need it done this week.
Okay, I'm on it, don't worry.
[Lorena] Don't be mad, okay?
Rorros is a spa concept for gentlemen.
I came up with the idea
while in the sauna.
Men need a quality service
that is also quick.
Quick? Not as quick as you
taking credit for my idea.
What the hell?
First, he makes us switch locations,
then he steals my concept.
What's next?
Him treating us like employees?
He's a guy.
He likes to puff out his chest.
What an asshole!
- Look on the bright side.
- [door opens, closes]
He got us 600 paying customers.
["Can't Take My Eyes Off You"
by Boys Town Gang playing]
This is a nightmare.
DANCE CONTES
[music stops]
Ro, why on earth did you sign up
for a dance contest?
You have no rhythm.
I play the recorder,
it's almost the same thing.
[sighs]
No, total lack of rhythm
is a social disease.
It's incurable and deadly.
[Romelia chuckling] No, no.
- [inhales] Everyone can dance.
- Everyone but you.
[Romelia] Believe it or not,
I studied jazz,
folk dance, ballet, and even disco.
Ooh! Hmm!
I'll set up your choreography
in the blink of an eye.
I taught my friends how to dance.
The only one I couldn't teach is your mom.
She's a lost cause.
Fine, you're hired, Grandma.
- Now, both of you, out of my room.
- [Ceci] What?
- But, uh
- We should practice Ro!
Isn't it weird Ro wants
to do something so suicidal?
- [scoffs]
- [woman] I'm here to help.
We can create synergies
for your app with other co-workers
who also focus on women.
That's great.
I told you you'd love working here.
[chuckling]
Oh, my boss is here.
Get used to the Ferrán effect.
[sultry music playing]
- Ferrán!
- Dora.
This is Ana,
the new partner I told you about.
- Nice to meet you, Ana.
- Likewise.
Sorry I haven't been around.
I like welcoming people myself.
- I was in Chicago for my niece's birth.
- Mmm.
- This is Cynthia, my marketing director.
- [Cynthia] Mmm.
- Hi. You have great taste.
- [chuckling]
- [Ferrán] May I?
- Sure.
- No.
- It's fine, I should settle in.
- [Ferrán] Yes.
- [Dora] I'll give you a hand.
Ana, I'd love to get coffee
and hear all about
how you became
so successful being so young.
- [giggling]
- [Ferrán chuckles]
Actually, I'm not as young as I look.
- [chuckles softly]
- Still, I'd love to get coffee.
- [phone chiming]
- All right.
Oh.
Excuse me, I have to take this.
Go right ahead.
What's up, sweetie?
I have a dance contest on Friday.
Dance contest? That's weird
I mean, great.
I didn't know you like dancing.
What song did you choose?
It's a surprise. Are you coming?
Of course, I'll be there.
See you.
[phone chiming]
What's up, champ?
Is everything okay?
Yeah, I'm great. I'm in a dance contest.
You must come. I sent you an invite.
Sure, count me in.
Though I'm curious,
since when do you dance?
Uh, I'm working on it, Dad. Bye!
[Mariana] You must be joking.
Car supremacist!
[clicks]
[sighs]
Bring it on!
You've been practicing.
Well, I have a console here.
How's your game going?
I'm pitching it to an animation studio,
but I can't seem to finish the demo.
With Manolo in the office,
I can't work on it.
Why not do it at home?
- [keys clacking]
- Oops.
- They've shut down my render ten times.
- You need a workspace.
And I have just the place.
[Chava] Now we're talking!
Free beer and foosball!
This is awesome, dude!
It's just for employees, you're a guest.
Here's your studio.
- Nice going, man!
- Nice.
[Chava] It looks so professional, man!
I can't accept this.
Why the hell not? They have foosball!
The rent must be so high.
I rent this place
while my office is being remodeled.
I'll hardly be here,
it shouldn't go to waste.
It would be a shame, man.
Fine, only until I finish the demo.
Juan Carlos?
The missus is here, guys!
[Ana] What are you doing here?
My office is under repair.
The noise is unbearable.
You couldn't find another place?
How about a coffee shop,
or your apartment?
Maybe one of the thousand
other co-working spaces?
I really like this one.
It's perfect for networking.
Networking? Your company sells screws.
Are you angry
because we're office neighbors,
or are you just playing hard to get?
I asked we only see each other at therapy,
and now you're here, invading my space.
You're right. I'm sorry.
Sorry, don't be mad.
I promise I won't come much,
and I'll leave when my office is done.
[woman] Spot? I don't get it.
This one.
That's Ferrán's car.
It's his parking spot.
So, where can I find this Ferrán person?
He is in office 831,
but you need an appointment.
He's cool, progressive, charming,
but he's also very busy.
Well, I just want to thank him
for a gift he left on my bicycle.
- Lucky you!
- Thanks.
[sighs]
[Ferrán] Yes, we'll do that. All right.
You thought you'd get away with it?
Damn, guys, come.
[Mariana] I can't believe you didn't care.
I'll call you back.
You're a car supremacist and a douche
who drove away after hitting my bicycle.
I can't use it now. Look what you did.
You could've at least left me
a note with your number.
- Well
- [Mariana] You know what?
I hope your car isn't keyed
mysteriously one of these days. Mmm?
That was a clear example
of sexual tension.
Dude, have you told Mariana
you'll be working here?
No.
Mariana.
What are you doing here?
Juan Carlos offered me a space
to work on my demo, right here.
[sighs] A little obvious, right?
I know. Ana nearly killed him
when she saw him.
I'll come in my free time or on weekends.
Yeah, no problem. Do what you have to do.
- I should
- [Pablo] Yeah, no worries.
[Mariana exhales]
[footsteps approaching]
[Pablo] Hey! What are you doing here?
I work here with Ana.
You didn't get fired, did you?
No, I quit.
I'm the marketing director for the app.
You'll do a great job. You're amazing.
[chuckles softly]
Cynthia, about the other day
That's all in the past. We're cool.
So, can we stay friends?
Sure.
Well, I should get back to work.
Sure.
[Romelia] Are you ready?
[Rodrigo] I'll play the song.
[in English] Alexa, play "Can't Take My"
[in Spanish] No, I'll choose the music.
- Alexa, play "The Fire."
- [Alexa in Spanish] Playing song.
[Spanish reggaetón music playing]
Well, I never learned
those particular moves.
[in English] Alexa, stop!
[Alexa in Spanish] Twerking stopped.
My little brother isn't twerking.
Plus, we agreed I'd choose the song.
You're my boyfriend.
- You do as I say, period.
- But
I'm not arguing in front of your grandma.
I'm leaving.
- Ro
- Paloma is kind of
Slutty.
And bossy.
- Hmm.
- [Ceci] Mm-hmm.
[Víctor] Here's a question.
Why did you decide to paint
the salon pink? That wasn't our plan.
Nor did we plan for you
to take credit for the idea.
It's reassuring for men
to hear it was a guy's idea.
- It's a marketing tool.
- [scoffs]
You sound like a tool.
Since renting the new place,
you call all the shots.
You don't trust me.
I insisted on that color
because Juan Carlos
had leftover paint from the office.
- Besides, it's a manly color.
- My opinion doesn't count?
[Víctor] Yeah, but we each
contribute our strengths.
You're a beauty expert,
but I know marketing.
I also have good taste.
So, now I have bad taste?
I'm just messing around.
You're a little high strung today.
I might be high strung or whatever,
but I don't depend on my brother.
Partnering up was a bad idea. Goodbye.
[call disconnects]
She'll get over it.
Trust me.
A peace offering.
It's calming tea.
[sighing] Thanks.
You look 20 years younger.
Careful!
One of these kids
could fall in love with you.
You know what?
Let's put it to the test.
[sensual music playing]
Mind if I try?
Not at all. Come.
Please.
- [chuckling]
- Wow!
Isn't the gentleman playing?
No.
The gentleman just brings me my tea.
Ah. You're good.
I'm good at everything I do.
Oh.
Did you know the way we play
says a lot about a person?
- Is that so?
- [Ferrán] Mm-hmm.
It can help determine
whether we're cautious,
or whether we're risk-takers,
aiming straight for the bullseye.
- Oh.
- [both chuckling]
[Ferrán] Look, Ana.
You may not take me seriously,
but there are games I don't like playing.
Hmm.
[clicks tongue] That's too bad,
this one was so much fun.
[whimsical music playing]
Why are you so nervous?
Is it because you saw Mariana?
- Or because you saw her with that hunk?
- Hunk?
He's a Greek god.
Like a spawn of Zeus himself.
Gorgeous guy.
You're crazy.
Besides, we're over.
Maybe you're not over her.
[phone chimes]
ARE YOU OVER YOUR EX?
STAR
Dude, those tests only work
in those soap operas you like.
Come on, dude, I don't watch soaps.
You don't?
- Fine, only to fall asleep.
- [laughing] Right.
Besides, if you're so sure
you'll pass the test easily,
put your money where your mouth is.
I'M SORRY!
"THE CAR SUPREMACIST"
Miss, you should park your bicycle
in the designated area next time.
- What designated area?
- Over there.
[Romelia] Don't take this the wrong way,
but it's not right for Paloma
to change your plans.
- Can I be honest?
- You're tired of carrying her bag?
This is why I signed up for it.
["Can't Take My Eyes Off You" playing]
[Ceci] Are those our parents?
[chuckling] I don't believe it!
[laughing] I had forgotten that!
Your mom was mad because
she couldn't follow my choreography.
[Romelia and Ceci laughing]
That song, really?
[Rodrigo] I want them to remember
how they felt back then,
so they'll get back together.
[Romelia sighs]
All right,
I'll help you with the choreography,
but you can't force Paloma
to dance with you.
Do you think if I explain my reasons,
she'll agree to the song?
Tell her why this is so important for you.
Love is about support.
If she doesn't agree,
tell her she's a bad girlfriend.
- [Rodrigo chuckles]
- Seriously, Ro.
[song continues playing]
I bet you didn't know
your moms are partners now!
Hey, I ran into Juan Carlos
at the co-work.
Don't even tell me.
I even flirted with some guy
to make Juan Carlos jealous.
Did it work?
I'm not sure.
But the guy did flirt back,
and I loved it.
Oh! [laughs]
That's great! You should go for it.
- What if he turns me down?
- Have you looked in the mirror?
You're hot, brilliant,
experienced.
[laughing]
Plus, forties are the new twenties.
[in English] Yeah!
Yes!
[laughing]
- Yes! Yes!
- [Mariana] Good girl.
[in Spanish] Yes, they are, sweetie.
Oh, Mom. I thought Víctor was different.
Honestly, that was something
you could've seen coming.
Why?
Mmm.
When things are going well,
you always mess it up.
[Tere] Whoa!
You think I always mess things up?
No. No, no, that sounded terrible.
[chuckles nervously]
I meant you don't always
make the best decisions.
You know what, Mom? Drop it.
And I'll tell you something else.
I'm sick of no one believing in me.
[Lucía] Tere
That's not what I meant, sweetheart.
[grunts in frustration]
- [whispering] I screwed up.
- Don't worry, Lucía.
She'll get over it.
I can't make it to Rorro's grand opening.
- Was the paint helpful?
- Hmm.
Is that why you invited me here?
To rub it my face
that you gave me the paint?
I invited you to wish you luck.
Why luck?
Because I need it,
or because I'm an idiot?
[laughing] Fuck, Víctor,
I'm being honest here,
you're going to do great.
Juan Carlos
I'm sick of you and our parents
thinking I'm a screw-up.
Your partner also thinks she's a screw-up.
Maybe you'll
cancel each other out. [laughs]
[both laugh]
That was so funny.
You're especially funny today.
See you later.
- [man] A lot.
- [Dora] Yeah, a lot.
- What's everyone looking at?
- [chuckling]
The owner of the co-work. He's so hot.
Damn!
Besides, he's so nice. He's perfect.
The guy in the black jacket?
- No I meant Ferrán.
- [Mariana laughs]
He's the owner.
The owner of the co-work?
Okay.
- [Pablo] Hey!
- Hey.
Is something wrong?
No, but I think I messed up bad.
Ah. [chuckles softly]
What? [sniffs]
- You're good.
- Okay.
DO YOU FIND HER SMELL IRRESISTIBLE?
NO
[Rodrigo] Believe me now?
- That's why it has to be that song.
- [school bell ringing]
You suck at reggaetón.
But '70s style clothes look great on me.
So, okay. I'm in.
We'll win, you'll see.
[gentle music playing]
[Conrado] "Do tiny little details
remind you of her?"
Well, yeah. Regina.
No, wait.
[sniffles]
"Do you unwittingly say your ex's name?"
No.
"Do you stalk her on social media?"
Not really.
Fine, you were right.
Since when do you like Otaku snacks, man?
- Mind your business.
- [laughing]
You've been acting so weird,
office boy. [laughs]
[Ferrán] Women are an undeniable force.
That's why we must fight
for gender equality.
Don't forget you can donate
to the women's shelter.
Yeah, there's a link.
My friend is here now.
Mariana.
- Mariana.
- [both chuckle]
I think we're having a beer,
so I must leave you.
Sorry for interrupting.
- Thanks.
- [Mariana] And for the way I reacted.
- I assumed you were a douche.
- No, I'm the one who's sorry.
We're installing clear signs.
Well, thanks.
And thanks for fixing my bike.
I depend on it to take my baby to daycare.
Funny coincidence.
I'm working on setting up
daycare here in the office.
Really? That would be amazing.
I haven't been working here very long.
I have a maternity app.
That's interesting. We're in sync.
[chuckles softly]
- Consider me your ally.
- Wow.
[chuckling]
[chuckling] Now I see why my partner
chose this co-work.
- She's amazing.
- Wow.
I wish that was said of me.
I can't wait to meet her.
Uh-oh. Sorry, but I have to run.
- But your beer?
- [Mariana] I know.
- Can I take a rain check?
- All right.
DO YOU HATE SEEING HER WITH ANOTHER?
YES
His name is Ferrán.
He's a womanizer.
[Mariana] We won't finish today.
Oh no. I hope we do.
Tomorrow is Ro's dance contest.
By the way
I met someone.
[gasps]
- So?
- Well, he's nice.
He has great ideas,
and we had a beer together.
Still, I'm not sure.
What are you waiting for?
Even I'm considering dating
the hot guy who flirts with me.
It's time to turn the page.
I won't sit around and wait to see
if things improve with Juan Carlos.
That sounds perfect.
Yes, perfect.
We can't sit around and wait.
That's our concept!
It's perfect for the app.
We wait, but we're active
because life goes on, right?
Today's moms don't sit around and wait.
I love it.
[laughs, squeals]
[laughs]
Now, promise me one thing.
You won't sit around and wait.
I promise.
- Way to go! Let's finish this up.
- [chuckling]
[Juan Carlos] It's late.
When's she getting here?
Where's your costume?
We're dancing flamentón.
It's a mix of flamenco and reggaetón.
What if I don't want to dance flamentón?
You know how many boys
would kill to twerk with me?
You're a traitor.
We had a deal.
Ro!
Wait, Mom. I'll go talk to him.
- Why do you let her walk all over you?
- I don't know.
Actually, I do.
Paloma is like a movie villain.
Everyone likes her.
Being her boyfriend makes me "the boss."
[chuckles softly]
You know you don't need
a popular girlfriend, right?
Says the one who's dating a cool gamer.
[Ceci chuckles]
I know.
Know why I'm dating him?
Because he's hot.
I like how good he is to me.
You deserve at least that.
Come on.
[inhales] Besides, this isn't over.
You didn't learn choreography for nothing.
I have a plan.
Isn't this strange?
What are they up to?
- I have no idea.
- [footsteps approaching]
Are you ready?
- Yeah.
- [Ceci] Come on, sit here.
Mom, you sit there. Dad, you sit here.
[Ana] What is this?
- Okay.
- [Ceci] Alexa, play the song!
["Can't Take My Eyes Off You" playing]
[laughs] Wow!
[laughs]
Well done!

- [Alexa] Message from Paloma.
- What is it?
[Paloma] Why didn't
you "like" my photo, Ro?
Is it 'cause I twerked with your friend?
That's toxic masculinity.
Toxic masculinity?
I'm always doing what she wants.
I danced better than Rosalía,
and he didn't come to support me
What a liar.
She wants a comment? Fine.
No. He's doing it.
What is he doing?
Mom, he's breaking up with her
on her livestream.
It's much worse than breaking up via text.
It's like breaking up with her
in public, but with emojis.
Are you sure?
WE SHOULD BREAK UP
I'm such a great teacher.
I'm telling Darío about this.
Wait.
Your moves were amazing and
Your grandma told me why you did all this.
Our problems are ours to solve.
You can't force things in a relationship.
[sighs] Yeah. Trust me, I get it now.
[sentimental music playing]
Hey! Wait up.
I owe you a beer. I mean, two beers.
One for the bike and one
for leaving the other day.[chuckles]
[chuckles] Okay.
Uh, I have a meeting now,
but I'm free after that.
My mom is having a grand opening
for a spa that caters to men. Wanna come?
Sure.
- Shall we meet up here?
- [Mariana] Yeah, I'll see you here.
All right.
- See you later.
- [Mariana] Definitely. [chuckles]
MARIANA: HE SAID YES!
ANA: IT WOULD'VE BEEN
SO AWKWARD IF HE SAID NO!
I'm sorry.
It was my fault Ro got confused.
I'm also to blame.
I let you spend the night.
We confused him.
And Ceci too.
- I don't want it to happen again.
- No.
[inhales deeply]
As soon as the remodel is done,
I'll clear out of the co-work.
I'm curious,
are you and the hot guy involved?
[laughs]
No.
I only flirted with him
to set boundaries with you.
[exhales]
Though, it made me realize
I want other things.
Other things or other guys?
Stop it, Juan Carlos.
I have to run.
Besides, we're not ready
to talk about these things.
[engine starts]
Okay.
[Chava] You're such an idiot!
He missed without a goalie, man.
[phone chimes]
I got a positive result.
For the test!
I'm still in love, but with Cynthia. Look.
Well, finally.
About time you realized it.
I think you lost something.
No, I left it in your office
to challenge you to a match.
Why don't we get coffee instead,
like you promised?
I don't want to be rude,
but I have a thing tonight.
Can we do it next week?
Of course.
- No worries.
- Okay.
[Pablo] Can we talk?
I just need to get something
off my chest, please.
Do you want to be my plus-one?
I can't.
I'm sorry, Cynthia. I get it now.
I was scared of risking my stability
with Mariana and Regina.
It's only fair to give this a shot.
I want to be with you.
[sighs]
Pablo, I can't handle you
changing your mind all the time.
Please.
Look.
I bought these
because I'm always thinking of you.
You eat them when you're stressed.
You can't fix this with Pockys.
I know, but it's a start.
Give me a chance.
I'll think about it.
- It's all I can do for now.
- Okay.
I'll text you the address
in case you decide to come.
- [car lock chirps]
- [indistinct conversation]
My meeting ran long. Can you believe it?
- [Mariana] Really?
- [Ferrán] Yeah, it was a horror show.
Now, at last.
- Please.
- [chuckling] Thanks.
- You look stunning.
- [Mariana] Thank you.
[gasps]
[car door opens, closes]
[engine starts]
What's with the champagne?
- Juan Carlos sent it. Look.
- Oh!
"I'm sure Rorros will be a success."
"You're the best, I love you, bro."
That's great.
[woman] Can I have an interview?
Of course. But she's
the one you should interview.
- Tere came up with the concept. [chuckles]
- [chuckles]
We'll do it in a minute.
I'll make a speech first.
[clinking]
Thank you for coming.
My partners and I are so excited
about this grand opening.
Remember, tonight anything goes!
- Hell yeah!
- [all cheering]
You'll make it big!
That dress looks great on you.
- [chuckling] I'm only here to show it off.
- Oh really?
- Mmm.
- [Pablo chuckles]
