How cute is this?

Wow.

Oh, come here.

- Hola.

You know, we're close to that river

that used to be

Argentina's main trade route

into Paraguay.

Apparently it used to be

a pretty happening town.

A lot of smugglers

and rough types.

Really?

I like it already.

Pick one.

Uh...

- This one?

Thanks.

Here you go.

You can keep the change.

You have a reservation?

Luca.

You stay only one night, yes?

Yes.

Actually, we leave tomorrow.

Do you know what time the bus

At 8:

And it's the only one of the day.

Please tell me that's 8:00 PM.

I'm sorry.

It's 8:
00 in the morning.

Figures.

- Your passport, please.

- Oh yeah.

Ellie.

"Assport"?

Ellie.

That's a good one.

You are not traveling alone,

are you?

Um, well, yes and no.

We were traveling with a bike tour

but we kind of went AWOL

after the first day.

Yes, I see.

Well, please let me know

if you need anything.

- Cool.

- Thank you.

Okay.

- Ciao.

One key.

Oh, gracias.

- Ah.

- Weirdo.

Cute.

Yeah, this is cute.

Hmm.

Whoa!

First shower.

Ugh, this is gross.

Ugh.

Hey, Steph.

There's no towels.

Yeah, coming.

Here are your towels.

Danke schoen.

What did you say to those guys?

Nothing, just that you're single.

Gee, thanks, El.

Okay, I like the potential.

Yeah, it's nice.

Oh, excuse me.

Two cervezas, por favor.

Gracias.

Is that Nick?

Seriously?

He's such a dick.

I know.

But maybe I should

just talk to him.

No. No no no.

Don't even think--

it's so not worth it.

I know, but...

You know I'm not--

I'm not good

at being alone.

I know, but I'm right here.

Okay?

- We had fun.

- Yeah, absolutely.

We're about to have more fun too.

Gracias.

Um, disculpe.

We didn't order these.

Don't be rude.

Mmm!

Whoo!

All right!

- No no.

- Yeah yeah.

- Ellie, no. Seriously, I'm done.

- Just shut up and drink.

Tomorrow's gonna suck.

Yes, but that's what Advil is for.

Come on, it's our last night.

To you and me.

Salud.

- I can't--

- That was hard.

Whoo.

What about him?

I don't know.

You think he's my type?

Totally.

He looks...

Responsible.

Should I invite him over?

I can totally invite him over.

- No. El, stop. Sit down.

- Im gonna do that for you.

Jesus, sit down! Sit down!

He's gonna look over here, Ellie.

- Stay.

- Isn't that the point?

Oh my God.

Are you hearing this?

Do you hear this? Please don't

tell me you're not hearing this.

- What are you doing?

- I'm doing us all a favor.

Oh no no,

you cannot play that song.

- Ugh, Ellie.

My friend wants to know

why you don't like the song.

Well, 'cause there's a fine line

between irony and just plain bad.

Kind of like...

Your shirt.

All right.

No.

Nope.

Okay.

This one's for you, baby.

# I want you to love me #

# When I feel down,

I want you above me #

# I search myself,

I want you to find me #

# I forget myself,

I want you to remind me #

# I don't want anybody else #

# When I think about you #

# I touch myself, ooh #

# I don't want anybody else... #

I'm always laughing... #

Hey, where are you going?

Um, el peepee.

Girl emergency.

Sorry.

# I'd do anything for you #

# I don't want anybody else... #

# Oh, I don't want... #

You're not from around

Performance anxiety?

You should stick close

to your friend.

Wow.

That backfired.

# I honestly do,

I touch myself #

# I touch myself. #

Let me take one of you.

Now you're my prisoner.

Really?

Not with that one.

Mmm.

Ooh!

Oh my God.

You'll wake her up.

Your place?

No no no. We can't.

Who says?

- Me says.

Yeah, me...

- Come on, you're gonna love it.

- I know I'll love it.

I know.

I just can't.

My friend, she's in...

Well, tell her to come.

Tell her to come.

I'm not gonna tell her to come.

Come on.

I live really close to here.

- I don't... we can't.

- Okay?

- I told you I can't go.

- Come on, you're coming with me.

I'm not gonna come with you.

Okay, all right.

This hurts.

Ow, stop!

What the hell?

- Hey!

- Let me go!

- Get away from me!

- Come inside!
