It's all we can afford.

But it'll do for now.

No, it's not perfect,

but it will be when we fix it up.

What's on your mind?

I was thinking about the future.

It has a nice view.

Seems the bulb's on the fritz...

What are you doing?

- Should I stop or can I keep--?

- Shh.

See?

You're hallucinating again.

Shut it!

And not because

someone might hear you.

Yell all you want

but no one will hear you.

You see, we are older men

and we find yelling to be greatly perturbing.

Do you know what

"perturbing" means, dear?

Do you know or not?

Something that is tiring,

exhausting

This one may be able to help us.

- What is your name, dear?

- Ali.

- Your full name.

- Just Ali.

I should have expected as much.

The degradation of the language...

If you were a man

your name would be...

Jonathan, with a "Y"

Or Jacqueline.

Don't worry,

I know it's your parents' fault.

I 'm going to ask you something,

but stay very still.

What's that?

It would not be good for you if it falls,

my dear.

Not good at all.

Oh, don't worry, it doesn't explode.

You're both crazy.

Us?

You were the one who came here

not knowing what to expect.

Sorry, but for someone as naive as you,

finding us was a gift.

You know, we used to have to chase down

people like you. But not anymore.

You kids come here of your own accord.

It's good for us.

We don't have the energy like we used to,

you know?

No, don't answer just yet.

I need you to keep your face

very, very still.

This is very unstable, dear.

When I say, "very unstable,"

you'd best believe me.

And it does explode.

It's similar to nitroglycerin

but much better.

I made it myself.

I extracted it from

many sticks of dynamite.

It could remain on you for ages,

if I could stay here with you for so long.

That being said,

we will have to skip some parts.

I'm going to ask you one question,

and that question has but one answer,

and you can't ask anything.

You're a smart girl,

so I 'm sure you'll be of assistance to me.

I 'll ask only once:

What is this?

Just a second... One second...

- Such a pity...

- It's not an equation, right?

specifically told you,

"No questions"

It's a statement, not an equation.

It's not math.

It's...

"Kiss me if you can read this"

Perhaps... Perhaps...

"Kiss me if you can read this"

We can never be so sure with you.

I 've spent my entire life studying

the Spanish language.

I know the definition of 1 50,000 words.

I estimate that there may be

three times more to learn.

Can you imagine

how many words that is?

Do you know how many words

are commonly used by a girl your age?

Two hundred.

Two hundred words.

There were many hypocrites in my generation,
