in life was there...?

- Are you okay?

- ? another love...?

No no no no! Not on the sofa.

Not on the sofa.

- Okay.

- Okay?

- Mm-hmm. Okay.

- Okay.

- Come on.

- Okay.

Come on.

Are you okay?

- Ooh. Okay.

- All right.

- All right?

- Mm-hmm.

Tell me your name,

baby.

Come on.

I don't want you to die

without knowing your name.

- What's your name?

- Uh, Hector.

- Hector. Hector what?

- Huh?

- Hector what?

- Perez.

Hector Perez.

Okay.

Well, don't die on my birthday,

Hector Perez, okay?

Oh, man, I woke up

in her arms, man.

It was beautifuI.

It was beautifuI, man.

It was like-

I don't know, you know.

I just took care of business.

Yeah?

What kind of business?

Oh, man, just- just-

she gave me life back.

- That good, huh?

- Damn, no.

Actually,

it was that bad.

We drank,

we smoked, we danced,

and then I threw up

all over the poor girI.

I was so high

and so dizzy, man.

I never wanna do

that sh*t again.

I didn't know

where I was.

I didn't know

who I was.

Oh, man, that's the best

impression you can make

with Puerto Rican girls-

is being sick.

Marriage, brother,

marriage.

You vomit,

you marry.

They're naturaI-born

nurses, man.

I think

she liked me, man.

Jerry used to be a cop,

became a lawyer.

Now he's a-

now he's a thief,

robbing every

Latin musician blind,

but he's all we got, man.

That's all I gotta say.

Hold on, let me look at you

for a second, man.

Let me see.

No boogers-

- you look good, man, decent, you know?

- No way.

Now, hey, we gotta be carefuI

in there, though.

You know, we just-

we'll just play it off

and, you know,

see where it takes us.

- It's a big day.

- It's a big day for you.

- Oh yeah, oh yeah.

- Big day for us.

First we cut a record

and then we do a tour.

It'll be a '60s approach...

...you know,

but Spanish.

Now we are a young company,

but, you know,

we're looking to do bigger

and better things, you know,

more mainstream things,

you know.

The black musicians

have, uh, Motown,

Stax Records.

Now the Latin musicians

are gonna have their own labeI-

- Fania Records.

- Fania Records, yeah.

I know. I-I-I- I buy-

I buy your records, man.

Then you know

what you're getting into.

- Now, Hector, do you have a lawyer?

- Yeah, we have a-

- We have a good lawyer.

- Yeah.

- Oh, okay, good good.

- Very- he's- he's-

he's very good. Yeah.

He's very good.

He's- he's-

but you're an honest guy,

so I didn't bring him,

you know?

I'm the only guy.

- Mmm.

- There's one more thing-

and we all gave this

a lot of thought-

It wasn't me.

Me neither.

No no no, it's something

someone suggested

and I agree.

That name's

gotta go, man.

- Who gotta go?
