you might've fallen in love with me.

Me with you,

surely.

I haven't been very selective, Ramn.

I've shacked up in the worst joints.

I wonder what's with me,

I always get the weirdos.

A good heart and a good dick

and I fall in love.

I can't help them.

I try, but I don't get them.

Your stepfather

is another ball-game.

He's so strange...

But he's American and a writer.

Great in bed though, very sexy.

He called me today.

I came here thinking

I was going to get laid.

Honestly, I mean...

I'm making up a corpse.

That's okay 'cause I like you,

but then

I don't know if I'll get laid or not.

There's no atmosphere,

no wake, no family, no...

I don't see a deadly atmosphere.

It all seems very American to me.

He's getting warm.

What's wrong?

Something strange,

the skin is getting red.

What skin?

Ramn's.

That's impossible.

Maybe he's allergic to make-up.

Dead people don't have allergies.

I swear, I'm not lying.

His skin's got colour!

Doesn't he have better colour?

Must be the make-up.

No, I just made up this side.

Keep going.

I'll stay with you.

He's alive!

Do you feel better?

Much better!

You gave us a big fright!

- How are you, Ramn?

- Fine, and you?

Fine.

Let me help you.

Thanks.

What have you done all this time?

Contributing to "Field and Stream",

but basically bummed around,

which is what I like best.

Could you lend me

some money for a few days?

I don't even have enough for the hotel.

Of course.

I could live in Casa Youkali,

but I'd have to rent a car.

The house in unliveable.

No worries, I'll lend you the money.

Thanks. I promise to return it.

What will you do in Madrid?

Work. What else!

I have lots of ideas.

I'll write a novel inspired

by Latin America.

And you?

How's your heart? You taking care?

I'm perfectly fine.

I'm delighted.

- Sorry I'm late!

- What happened?

- You look terrific.

- So do you.

Lack of responsibility,

nothing suits me better.

He's so cheeky!

A woman sets herself on fire

in a bank director's office,

after having been refused a loan.

A member of the Bishop's Court

tried for misdemeanour.

Juana T. reported to have been object

of "indecent proposals"

while trying to get her marriage annulled.

Military commander kills his wife,

then commits suicide.

Argument began over

daughter's bad grades in school.

His neighbours described him

as an enchanting man.

Rapist commits suicide in jail

incapable of facing the shame

of being repeatedly raped

by various prisoners.

Angel Maya,

condemned to four years of jail

for prostituting invalids.

Five skinheads slay

two Moroccans and one Dominican.
