but she's not aggressive.

Stop! Stop!

Marilina, that's enough. Stop!

Lzaro, take the dog to the patio

and feed it.

Help the gentleman, darling.

I'll be right back.

I'm sorry,

I didn't introduce you. Well...

this is my mother,

and this is Miguel.

- And his mother.

- Are you Miguel?

Pleased to meet you, darling. Sorry,

the poor thing's been traveling...

...for way too long.

- This is Magda, my mother.

- Magda, I'm Ofelia. How do you do?

- How do you do?

I'm impressed with the hotel, Magda.

I'm dying to see the room.

We don't allow dogs.

- I beg your pardon?

- I'm terribly sorry.

- What am I going to do with her?

- There are dog hotels.

- We can find one in the phone book.

- No! I can't leave her.

I tried once, and she got depressed.

- Maybe you could make an exception.

- No, I cannot.

We have rules, and I must be

the first to keep to them.

- Mom, she's only staying a week.

- A week?

Who, me?

Didn't you tell Miguel that I'll be

staying for three months, ducky?

Get out! Get out!

You're stomping on my plants.

Come through the back door!

- Get going!

- Leave it to me, Jacinto.

- Did you see what a mess they made?

- It's late.

I thought you'd left to clean up.

I don't like to leave things

unfinished.

Do you mind if I freshen up here?

No.

I called my son and told him

to bring my clothes.

- I can use the pool shower.

- No way, it doesn't have hot water.

Use the guest room bathroom.

Do you know where it is?

- No.

- Come with me.

- Excuse me. May I help you?

- Yes, thanks.

- Ftima, see to the caterer's boys.

- Yes, ma'am.

I ordered Japanese food.

You don't like it, do you?

Yes, I do.

This way.

I'll take off my boots,

so I won't soil the carpet.

Top of the stairs, second door...

...to the right.

- Okay.

Mom?

- Can you lend me this?

- You have over 50 shirts, darling!

Does it look good on me?

Maybe if we adjusted the waist...

- I want to look good.

- You are good-looking.

No, he thinks

that I'm good-looking.

That's him.

- There were three today.

- What?

Heart attacks.

Now! Back off!

- Guess who was the last?

- Who?

The justice who was going

to marry us on Sunday.

We had just had coffee.

- I love you.

- I do, too.

I know. I just don't know why.

You said "second door to the right".

To the left.

FRIDAY 9:
30 PM

He was lucky for a second-timer.

- May I see him?

- He's sedated. Come back tomorrow.

- Okay. Thanks, doctor.

- That was scary.

You're never ready

for this kind of thing.

Much less for what

I am about to tell you.

You're going to have

to postpone your vacation.

- No, no! No, way.

- You'll perform the famous wedding.

- You're his only substitute.
