[BOTH LAUGH]
[TENDER MUSIC PLAYING]
Should've asked me to pick
up your severance for you.
You could've spared
yourself some embarrassment.
[OMAR CHUCKLES]
- [NADIA LAUGHS]
- [OMAR LAUGHS]
Why are you here?
Do Baba and Mama know?
Yeah, I called Baba.
He said you'd be here.
So I figured I would
come and keep you company.
- Hmm?
- [BOTH LAUGH]
And see if Baba had mellowed out.
Mm. Yeah, spoiler? No.
- [BOTH LAUGH]
- Yeah, I can tell.
["BRAND NEW ME" BY HOMEGROWN
PLAYING ON MONITORS]
- [ENERGETIC POP CONTINUES]
- Now, that's new.
What the fuck is that?
The logo for Alumni.
What?
Attention, seniors.
Virginia has given all of you permission
to skip class and spend the next hour
checking out the new
and revamped Alumni,
the association for former students.
Attendance isn't mandatory,
but it is highly appreciated.
Meaning we will be taking roll call.
This is my brother, Héctor, and
I'm Emilia. We're expecting you.
- [HÉCTOR] Hurry up. Don't miss out.
- They're doing what?
[STUDENTS MURMURING]
Okay, I'm a former student. Why
haven't I heard about Alumni?
'Cause the invite doesn't
extend to kids on scholarship.
How would you know?
Lu had to pull strings in
order to get me accepted.
If you get in, the contact
network is incredible.
I mean, I got my internship
at the UN through Alumni.
Despite those two.
It didn't look good,
being on scholarship.
For Las Encinas abroad, I
wasn't the ideal representative.
They tried to boycott
me in every way possible.
They're miserable jerks.
Steer clear of those two.
[BRIGHT MUSIC PLAYING]
Did you really have to
remodel an entire wing?
Our agreement was that you could
change the furniture in here.
Well, Alumni needs a space
suitable for its new activities.
Wait, what new activities?
You're against it, Virginia?
I don't see why you need a
dedicated social club area
when Alumni is managed perfectly
well in a folder on my computer.
- That right there is one of the reasons.
- With a
You're not in charge anymore.
Pardon?
And the other is that
this is a generous donation
from our parents to Las Encinas.
Hm
You don't have a say, so it
doesn't matter what you think.
Not that she ever had a say.
- [SCOFFS]
- [VIRGINIA] Uh
I'm sorry, what was that?
Give me a sec so I can ring up my
parents and get them on the line.
I'm sure they'd love
to hear what you think.
I think it turned out pretty great.
Super appealing, wouldn't you say?
- No?
- Yeah, appealing.
[EMILIA SIGHS]
Well, it's that time. Excuse
us, but you'll have to leave.
The senior students will
be here any second now.
And it'd be super awkward
to have you here, you know?
Should I walk you to the door?
Won't be necessary, but thanks.
[DOOR CLOSES HEAVILY]
We have to make it clear no one
comes in without an invitation.
Not her, not anyone.
[HÉCTOR] I'm president
of the Alumni club.
Completely renovated.
Completely renovated.
And my sister is vice president.
Before you know it,
you'll be graduating, or we hope,
and you will leave Las Encinas.
But the school doesn't want this
to be a "see you never" sorta deal.
Rather, a "Mm, whenever."
We have invested a ton of
money and even more effort.
Alumni was worth it.
Alumni is worth it.
It was super worth it to build a space
where we can all come
to relax, be ourselves,
spend our free time vibing
with people on our same
wavelength, network, et cetera.
An exclusive space only
open to a privileged few.
We'll be opening up the
selection process for new members.
The pillars of Las Encinas are
discipline, excellence, and merit.
Ours are pleasure,
liberty, and contacts.
[EMILIA] To enter, you're gonna
need one of us to sponsor you
and decide if you're Alumni material.
Only one candidate per sponsor.
So, look for one now.
Don't forget. We want Las Encinas
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Héctor?
We want Las Encinas to always
remain a part of your lives.
[ISA] Part of my life, she says.
Sounds like a bunch of horseshit.
I mean, that's literally
the last thing I need.
To hang out here with those
cringy Alumni douchebags
when all I want to do is escape
this school once and for all
and never again set
foot inside these doors.
[CHLOE] Yeah, same.
[SONIA] I'll miss it, though.
[CHLOE] Nah, trust me, you'll
get over it the moment you leave.
[SONIA] Dalmar!
Hi. [GIGGLES]
Hi.
- How are you? [GIGGLES]
- Good. How are you?
Huh? Oh my God. Did you
know those two were together?
Looks like it.
Bet you're sorry you let her
get away, aren't you, coz?
I guess you shouldn't
have jerked her around
and played her like a flute, huh?
[SCOFFS] This, coming from you?
- After you went and
- What? After I what?
C'mon, we need to talk.
About Sonia?
C'mon, Nico. Leave it, bro.
I'm taking her.
- Can you survive without her?
- No.
- No.
- Don't think so.
- Me neither.
- Yeah, come on. Let's go.
- [WHINING] No!
- [ERIC SIGHS HAPPILY]
Stop worrying about your papers.
Said the privileged, pretty white girl.
I do care, you know.
I just want you to stop freaking
about the same thing all day long.
'Cause, one, it won't make the
papers rain down from the sky.
And two, you're gonna
give yourself an ulcer.
[INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
- [SONIA] What if we got married?
- [DALMAR] What?
[SONIA] For the papers,
dude. I'm not insane.
[DALMAR] Uh, this
isn't like in the movies
where you sign and that's
it, you're a citizen.
[QUIETLY] No.
[SONIA SIGHS]
Uh, sorry.
I'm sorry I I interrupted
whatever it is you were doing.
It's true, then.
That you go here.
We know each other?
I know you.
From Instagram.
I don't know why I didn't
connect you with Las Encinas.
And when I saw you at Alumni,
I flipped out.
Okay, yeah. Yep.
Well, nice to meet
you. What did you want?
Don't get defensive, man. I mean well.
Yeah, you mean well, and
you're half-naked. I don't know.
Oh, I'm only really naked
from here
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
to right here.
[CHUCKLES] For real. I want
to sponsor you for Alumni.
Uh you what?
Well, candidates need to have someone
who's willing to vouch for them.
Who better than the president?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah,
yeah. [INHALES SHARPLY]
But wouldn't I, um, first probably
need to be interested in joining?
You already are.
[JOEL] Haven't thought about it.
There's no reason why
you shouldn't want to.
Gimme one.
Because it's not a place for my people.
Who are your people?
I just meant it's not
a good club for me.
[BELT BUCKLE JINGLES]
- I think it's perfect for you.
- [PANTS UNZIP]
A little shower?
I mean, with this heat
What's this?
You can look.
I'm into it.
What's that tattoo mean?
[HÉCTOR] It's a university thing.
Stop by the club, 'kay?
I'll show you around so you can
get a feel for what it's like.

INCOMING VIDEO CALL
[VIBRATING STOPS]
- This is ridiculous. Do you hear yourself?
- I'm serious. Just think about it.
Do you hear yourself?
What kind of favor is that?
No! I won't leave Eric. Especially
when we're doing fucking great.
But he needs stability now,
and you can't give him that.
- I'm sorry. And how would you know?
- Chloe!
We have to go down to the
police station with them.
This isn't over.
[INTROSPECTIVE MUSIC PLAYING]
[CHLOE] Really, Mom?
[CARMEN] Your cell phone was off, okay?
[METAL DETECTOR BEEPS]
[INTROSPECTIVE MUSIC SWELLS]
If the cops keep bringing
them in for questioning,
their story must not be very clear.
WHAT HAPPENED, SARA?
YEAH, WHAT HAPPENED?
Who killed Raúl? It's
obvious who did it.
Chloe, no doubt.
She pushed my Raúl,
literally or mentally.
But either way, she did it.
Do I have proof? Of course not.
[OVER PHONE] I don't have proof yet
'cause if she did it, she'd be in jail.
But I also don't have any doubts either.
I know someone must've
seen how it went down.
If anyone witnessed the fall and
you're watching this video right now,
please, please, say something.
[SIRENS APPROACHING]
[CHLOE] How many times will they
ask us the same thing? It's nonstop.
- We've gotta get out of town.
- No, no more moves.
Other options?
You're abandoning Iván?
But he wants nothing to do with us.
Besides, I promised him I'd leave, so
When did you promise that to him?
Before he left, I think.
What did you get? Huh? You
never just promise things, Mom.
- What did you get out of it?
- I swear to you, it was nothing.
If my son wants me to leave
the country, then that's that.
- To Buenos Aires, I'll go.
- Mm. Why are you still here, then?
All right. Because I was just hoping,
if I gave him a little more time,
that he might come back.
- Hm.
- Stop looking at me like that.
See, to me, that doesn't
sound like nothing. No?
Well
I don't know why I even bother with you.
Chloe! Wait, wait.
Haven't you stopped to think
that maybe this whole thing
with your ex-boyfriend's
free-fall record could be
a sign we should leave
sent from the universe?
Think about it.
Look, Mom.
I fit in here for the first time.
And things are going
great with this dude.
You and I are tolerating
each other for the most part,
so I'm not going anywhere.
[CARMEN SIGHS]
What about that lawyer
who repped Ivan's father?
- [CARMEN] José Luis?
- Yes!
Please, you have no idea
how expensive his fees are.
He might give us a discount if
you spread your legs for him.
- [SIGHS]
- [CARMEN]Hey!
[ISA] I asked the people at
the Lake Club for referrals,
and they had nothing but
wonderful things to say about you.
So I would be proud to have you
as Isadora House's head waiter.
Not much pride in that salary.
There'll be raises. I promise.
And in the meantime?
I'll get paid with exposure?
Yeah. It's the same old story.
So, tomorrow, then?
Really taking advantage of the needy.
[PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]
You are most welcome, sir.
[OMAR SIGHS]
[DOG BARKING IN DISTANCE]
[NADIA CLEARS THROAT]
[DOOR SLAMS]
You don't have to come back
if you're not ready, you know.
We're in no rush.
No, no. I want my normal life.
You can have normal,
but you're not ready now.
I am. Mateo said so.
That shrink of yours is, uh
You don't like him, Baba.
You're so annoying.
- Look at that. Father and son.
- [YUSEF SIGHS]
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
What?
- We're all together. The four of us.
- [NADIA LAUGHS]
- [OMAR SCOFFS]
- At each other's throats, but
But together.
[IMÁN AND NADIA CHUCKLE]
I hate that I'm going back to New York.
There you go. We only have a few
days. Let me enjoy this moment.
[IN ARABIC] You don't allow me to
be happy for even a minute, do you?
[SIGHS, CLICKS TONGUE]
Come on, now. We're
here to help out Omar.
Come on.
Here.
- [NADIA SCREAMS]
- [SPLUTTERS] What's goin' on?
- [IMÁN] Goodness, I
- Jesus, Omar!
Hey! What are you doing here?
Um
Nadia?
Yes. Nice to meet you in person.
Dammit!
[JOEL] Omar, wait.
Excuse me. Sorry.
Omar!
I just can't find anything
cheap right now, okay?
And since you were crashing with
your parents, I asked Dalmar.
[OMAR] It's my room, and
you didn't bother to ask me?
I know. I know. I
didn't wanna bother you,
and you were still at
your parent's house.
Why not move into Ivan's room if
you didn't wanna bother me? Huh?
Why here?
- [SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
- [YUSEF SIGHS]
Uh, because it still
feels like home here.
You guys are my home.
[NADIA] Come on, Omar.
Um, Nadia? Just keep it to yourself.
- Please.
- Nadia?
- It's such a pleasure. I'm
- [OMAR] Dalmar, fuck!
[DALMAR SIGHS]
So I've been paying for the room,
while you've just been
in there freeloading?
Um, don't don't worry, okay?
I'll get all my things and
crash on the sofa. Done.
That's what you said before
I went to my parents'.
- I know, I know. But
- Yeah, well, forget the sofa. Sorry.
Omar, enough.
- Dude, listen to your sister.
- Stay the fuck out of it!
Joel, I love you.
You know I do.
But this is my home.
And I need to feel at ease here.
And having you around is
just gonna pretty much fuck
with my head and my heart
and all the work I've
done this past few months.
I'm protecting myself.
You get that, don't you?
[JOEL EXHALES]
[QUIETLY] Okay.
Okay. I'll I'll leave now.
Have a little empathy, dude.
What about some empathy
for me? Right, Dalmar?
Hey, kiddo. You heard my son.
[NADIA] Baba.
- Get out of here.
- Okay. I'm leaving.
- I'll get out of here. Sorry.
- No fucking way.
You crazy? At this hour?
You can sleep in my room.
It'll be a tight squeeze, but Okay?
Give me a fucking break!
It's my room. I call the
shots there. Problem with that?
[OMAR SIGHS]
[YUSEF] Can you believe that?
[DOOR SLAMS]
[ROBERTA] You really shouldn't
have opened the venue.
It's a money pit.
Well, not for long, Mama.
Why don't you accept the fact
that we are completely broke?
Just sell everything, and
let's get the hell out of here.
I'm gonna get it up and running.
- Watch me.
- Oh, yeah? How?
Oh, with all of your degrees in finance?
Or your revolutionary business vision?
You don't have a fucking clue.
On top of that, you're so proud
that you'll never ask
me for help or feedback.
- I'm heading down.
- I'm just saying.
Mwah, mwah, mwah Mwah.
Oh my God. They're so weird.
- [ENERGETIC ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
- [CARMEN] These are the Krawietzes?
Don't tell me you know these guys.
They go to my school.
Well, did. Now they're running
this, uh, association for old alumni.
Uh-huh.
- Are they, like, famous or something?
- The Krawietzes?
They're one of the top ten families
many people consider the
de facto owners of Spain.
They amassed their fortune in the '60s,
with a little help, mm, from you know.
No, I don't.
Oh, baby. Come on! Videla?
[CHLOE] I don't know who
you're talking about.
Seriously? Didn't your school
teach you about the Civil War?
No. We haven't made it that far yet.
Well, that explains it.
This guy was like
Voldemort. He's the equivalent.
- Mm-hmm.
- Ruled this country for many years.
During his dictatorship,
several families raked it in.
Even more so after his death.
Wanna guess who was
one of those families?
The Krawietzes.
That's right.
They own construction companies, banks,
hotels, airlines, investment funds
Supermarkets, soccer teams, law firms.
Yet you date a squatter when
you have a Krawietz next to you?
I would say you need to get
your priorities in order.
Like, sell myself to him for 100 camels?
A hundred camels?
He would pay at least 100 billion.
- 'Cause he's rich, and you're worth it.
- Yeah. Yeah.
[CARMEN] This guy is loaded, I
assure you. Also, he's super cute!
And gay.
- Super cute and super gay.
- I mean, just look the other way.
So he's a pansy. His
money's just as good.
Don't call them "pansies."
Okay, my love. "Gays," "homosexuals."
- Did you say they had law firms earlier?
- Mm-hmm! Mm.
- Investment funds

I don't understand why
we can't be friends.
I don't feel like it.
There's no point 'cause I don't want to.

I'm going to class.

I said you can stay with

No. No, I don't
I don't want to keep getting

Iván said I could use

As the owner of Isadora House,
I'll give you access to places,
obviously, in addition to the club here,
to get together, relax, and
just have a really good time.
Pleasure, liberty, and networking
in the greatest nightlife
empire out there.
All will be available to Alumni.
And it's always at your disposal.
Okay. Thank you, Isadora.
Chloe?
Yep?
What would you offer Alumni?
Well my eagerness
to be part of the club.
I will do my best to
generate great vibes.
And do whatever I can
to help the club grow.
Alumni will be my priority.
That's all rather unclear.
How do you measure or test
whether it's your priority?
It's intangible.
So it's hard to tell if you
keep your promise or not.

He's not hurting anyone.
Look at him. Poor guy.
Yeah. Poor. Correct. Is he

He's probably on scholarship

Emi, enough. Go home.

Isadora was left with nothing.
- She's broke?
- [SONIA] I swear.
You're sure?
[ISA] I can take out loans.
More loans? You have five.
I'll apply for as many
as it's gonna take.
I can look for investors through Alumni.
Wait, you talking about that
former student club? That?
Yeah. Don't look at me that way.
You can't imagine how fancy
the club is they have at school.
It's the cream of the crop. I can
get a lot of good investors there.
But how do you know?
Well, Dalmar told me about it. He
said that Omar had mentioned it.
Because, apparently, he's
worried that he's gonna get fired.
Because without money,
she can't afford staff.
Isa always goes around
bragging she has this empire.
Don't trust a word. It's all an act.
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
Know what you're gonna do?
We're upgrading this thing.
You're gonna hire a ton of workers.
You know? I want waiters. I
want dancers. I want security.
I want cleaners. That
one's very important.
Isadora House is gonna be incredible.
I love you!
Uh, Is
["CHANGE MY MIND" BY EMMA PLAYING]
- Hi.
- What's up?
Can we move to a different table?
There a problem where you are?
Yeah, we'd like an area
that's more well-lit.
[SCOFFS] If you're just
jerking each other off,
don't you want less light?
Uh, I'm sorry.
I went overboard. That
was totally unprofessional.
I'll send someone over now.
No, Omar. Not "now." Right away.
Uh, Chloe? Please.
I've got a lot going on.
What if I gave you 100?
What then?
[UNDER BREATH] For fuck's sake. Okay.
Thanks.
No, just leave it.
Go. I'll take care of it.
You'll only be a second.
- 'Kay.
- Yeah.

What?
Hey.
What are you doing?
Hey! How'd you sleep, stowaway?
Mm? Told you it was cool. Here,
you can do whatever you want.
You can even make
yourself right at home.
Ah
Yeah, you don't have a home.
Or were you looking for me?
- Huh?
- [JOEL SIGHS]
- Tsk, tsk, tsk.
- Let me by.
See all this here? It
has everything you need.
On the house.
Freely accessible to members.
So if you want a sponsor,
you know who to call.
Stay and spend the
night. You're invited to.
[EXHALES]
In exchange for?
Why would you want to do this for me?
Huh? What do you want?
I just wanna see you enjoy yourself.
That is the purpose of
Alumni. For us to have fun.
Meeting people like us
and having a great
Yeah, but we both know I'm not like you.
But you can be like us when you grow up.
[ISA] Good morning.
Good morning, Isadora.
Here.
Thank you very much. Is it
the papers to join Alumni?
Your finances.
Red numbers, more red
numbers, and more red numbers.
Your bank statements look
like a list of missed calls.
Where did you get these from?
From the truth.
Not from that lie you
pitched me yesterday.
Unfortunately, bankrupt liars aren't
the demographic we want in alumni.
Have a great day.
Anything to get in the club.
Exposing a classmate.
Congratulations.
- I'm your sponsor.
- Thanks.
- You two weren't friends, were you?
- I'm sorry?
I have no problem
selling out a classmate.
But a friend? No way.
At the club, we're seeking an
atmosphere of goodwill and unity.
We don't want
backstabbing or toxic shit.
- You want me to be a waiter?
- Because you need the money.
You don't want us living together,
but it's okay to work together?
Just trying to help.
I'm not saying I don't need it,
but, look, I don't wanna help you
feel less bad, dude, to be honest.
Oh, Joel, get over yourself, would you?
- [JOEL SIGHS]
- [TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
[OMAR] What's the matter?
[MUSIC GROWS GENTLE]
- I'll I'll think about it. Later.

[IVÁN] Thanks.
[TENDER INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC SWELLS]
[BIRDS SINGING]
[SOFTLY] Hey what's the matter?
Nothing.
Come on. You can tell me.
We definitely have a
lot to talk about, huh?
We do, but can we save
it for some other time?
Right now, all I want is this.
What? What's up, Iván?
Why did you leave me there?
What're you talking about?
Weird, you don't remember that day?
Not showing up, not letting me know,
not answering my calls.
Christ.
Well?
It's just the truth.
Right now?
This couldn't have waited till
later? Fuck, I asked you to table it!
I could have, but it's
been tearing me up inside.
And me? I'd been looking
forward to seeing you for weeks.
Don't get me wrong. I've
missed you like crazy too, Joel,
but I wasn't comfortable by myself
I just don't want to
be your carry-on item.
- Okay?
- What?
What the fuck would I have done there?
I would've had nothing to do except
hang out with you in your free time
like a kept man. Nothing else.
Joel, you could have
done whatever you wanted.
Literally whatever.
Studied a language so you
could learn something new.
- Do you hear yourself?
- You could've traveled.
- It's there.
- Africa is nice.
Do you hear it? You
wanted to be your kept man.
All right? Forgive me if I would've
rather stayed to finish school.
Make a better life for
myself without anyone else.

Without anyone else? I
pay your tuition here.

- Fuck you, Iván. Fuck you.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
Great. Fuckin' great.
[JOEL SNIFFLES]
What's wrong?
Please be my sponsor.
I wanna join.
Okay. Come on. Let's
talk it over. All right?
[PATS ENCOURAGINGLY]
- Come on.
- [JOEL SNIFFLES]
He may get your dick hard, but you
need to put him through the process.
Yeah, sure. What are you
gonna do with your sponsee?
I want to have fun. That's
why we started the club.
Let's play a little. Come on.
Play what?
Pushing them to the limit.
They're so hungry to join.
One sold out her classmate.
And the other came
begging you to sponsor him.
No. No. There wasn't begging.
Let's put them through the
wringer. Put them to the test, Hec.
Let's see exactly how
eager they are to join.
Let's see how far they're
willing to go to be one of us.
[JOEL] Héctor!
- [CHUCKLES]
- To the limit.
- If he gets in, you can do what you want.
- Whatever I want?
I can do whatever I want, and
you won't get in the middle?
Perfect, then.
To the limit. Go on.
Hey!
- Can I walk with you?
- [HÉCTOR] Want a ride home?
- No, that's okay. Don't worry.
- Oh. Right.
You don't have a home, or do you?
- You never told me why you snuck in.
- Wanna get a drink?
[HÉCTOR] I don't know.
Why all of a sudden?
