- So we tell them we're sick.

- They're about to arrive, Bar.

So we don't open the door.

We make up an excuse.

Don't you mind looking bad to them?

You're a fickle and fool girl.

Oh yeah, you're a fickle and fool girl.

- And what else are you?

- Pretty.

- What time is it?

- I don't know.

It's 12:
15.

I can't go on like this. I can't watch

over you as if you were a little girl.

Look at me when I'm talking to you.

Thanks.

Do I have to watch over you

as if you were a little girl?

- No.

- No? I think yes.

- No.

- Yes.

If I ever find out you're lying to me,

I swear I'll leave and never come back.

- Do you take the pill every day?

- Yes.

Take it.

Open your mouth.

- Barbara, this is for your own good.

- Yes, I know.

I'm sorry.

Sorry, I'm a fool.

I don't want you to worry about me.

I just want you to be more responsible

with your medication.

Sorry for getting angry.

It's ok. You get angry

because you love me.

"The wolf has five cubs

white and black behind the groom."

"Five she raised, five she took care of,

And all five of them she nursed."

You've made up

the "white and black" line, haven't you?

No, that's the way my mother sang it.

- "White and black"?

- Yes.

It was "The wolf has five cubs,

five cubs behind the groom."

Not "white and black".

Javi, it's a nursery rhyme.

I also knew

the "white and black" version.

- You too?

- Yes.

So I'm the only one who doesn't

know this version. Come on!

Barbara, are you all right?

Yes. I had a little headache,

but I'm fine.

- Do you want an aspirin?

- No really, I'm fine.

Do you want to hold her?

I'm a bit afraid.

- She's not going to bite you.

- Right... I don't know how.

Look. Come. Let's go.

Like this. Be careful.

What's up?

Nothing, I was remembering something.

- What's up?

- No really, nothing.

Tell us so we can laugh.

I can't stop thinking of your face

if I threw the baby out of the window.

DEVIL:

It was a joke.

Take it.

- This is not the usual pill.

- That's right, it's not the usual pill.

- What is it?

- It's a sleeping pill.

A sleeping pill.

- Why do you give it to me?

- I want you to sleep.

I was going to take a nap anyway.

I want you to have a deep sleep.

- Rinse and swallow the water.

- What?

Rinse carefully

and swallow the water, please.

Open your mouth.

Thank you.

- What's going on?

- Nothing happens, my love.

Trust me.

"The moon kisses your pure tears"

"Like a promise of good fortune"

"People call you Fire Girl"

"And they are letting you die of thirst"

"Oh Fire Girl, oh Fire Girl"

"Inside my soul I have a fountain"

"So your guilt bends to drink"

"Affection is blind"

"I'm a good and sympathetic man"
