Hello Barbara. I'm Pedro.

I guess the man answering

was your husband.

I've told him I'm from

your phone company, so try to pretend.

I couldn't find out

your cell phone number.

You'll tell me later,

so it'll be easier to get in touch.

I also looked for your credit cards,

but you don't have any.

That would've made everything easier.

Look, I'm very sorry about this.

I need 7,000 euros within a week or

I'll tell your husband everything.

I left the cell phone recorder on.

Everything is recorded.

Tell me you understand.

Yes.

Ok. Now give me your cell phone number.

I'll call you from a cell phone

so you have it.

Now I'm calling from a public number.

When the money is ready, call me and

I'll tell you how to deliver it.

Ok.

When you give me the money

I won't bother you again.

I'm sorry.

Me too.

I'm not interested. I rarely use

the cell phone. Thanks a lot.

Hello.

Hello.

Your face looks familiar.

Are you an actress?

- No.

- I am.

Ok. Do you know if Ada is at home?

Do you know my name?

- No.

- Sonica.

Fine. I'm Barbara Asuncion.

Is Ada at home?

- I'm asking if Ada is at home?

- Yes.

Thanks.

Hello Barbara.

Here's to reunions.

To reunions.

How are you doing?

Fine.

I'm glad.

I'm sorry how I left, Ada.

I didn't know how to do it.

You only had to say goodbye.

- It's not so easy.

- Yes, it is.

Do you know what offended me the most?

It wasn't you disappearing

without a word, that only worried me.

It was offensive to feel

that you were scared of me.

Because I have never done anything

for you to feel scared.

That's not the way I am,

and you know it.

I didn't want to offend you.

It's happened other times.

I'm used to it.

Anyway, I'm happy to see you doing well.

- How about you?

- Better than ever.

Business is a bit down, but I got married

four months ago and I'm very happy.

Congratulations. Who is the lucky one?

Juana.

Juana? I like that girl.

Well... what can I do for you?

I don't want to bother you.

I'm very sympathetic.

You've just seen it.

I need money.

- You don't need money.

- Pardon?

You don't need money.

Your husband has plenty.

I had to make sure you were fine.

It's a personal business.

I have to work it out on my own.

Good girl.

How much money we're talking about?

7,000.

If you give it to me now, I can pay you back

with a 15% rate in five or six months.

You know what I do and you've come to me.

If you want 7,000 you know what to do.

If you're not willing, we'll finish

the drinks and kiss goodbye,

this time like civilized people.

- There would be conditions.

- Which conditions?

No penetration... whatsoever.

That makes things harder.

Besides, I need the money this week.
