-Don`t say a word to Mario. Not a word.

-What now?.

-Well, don`t you see?.

Mario won`t know anything about it.

Tomorrow will be Iike any other birthday.

And then, suddenly, someone comes to him

and says:

""Mario, there`s a gentleman

to see you from Mexico City.

A Senor Maximino Contreras,

about the music you sent him.""

Oh, it will be the greatest moment

in Mario`s Iife.

And in yours.

Yes, darling, it will.

Everything is Mario.

Mario and his music.

Mario and his bullfighting.

-Mario this. Mario--

-Darling, it`s only natural. He`s my twin.

I know that, but I`m marrying you.

AII of you, but only you.

I Iike Mario. He`s a wonderful guy.

He`II be the best brother-in-Iaw

I ever had in my Iife.

But there`s one thing

I want you to understand.

After we married, you`re not gonna take

an aspirin every time he has a headache.

[LAUGHING]

Yes, Pepe.

AII right, now about us.

I received an offer

from the Institute of Research of New York.

-We`re gonna have to Iive there for a year.

-Darling, that`s wonderful.

But there`s something else.

I don`t know when I have to Ieave.

We may not be able to wait months

to get married.

-It might be three weeks.

-Three weeks?.

Maybe Iess time.

It depends on when they need me.

Well, darling, that sounds grand,

New York for a whole year, but--

Well, suppose Mario needs a--

Oh. Mario again.

What, darling?.

The only time you seem to be happy

is when you`re doing something for Mario.

Pepe, wait a moment. I`m sorry.

AII right.

Will you Ieave on short notice

if we have to?.

Any time you say.

Pepe.

-It`s good to see you.

-Thank you.

-Hello, maestro, you`re Iooking well.

MORALES:
Thank you.

Put it down. Tomorrow is your birthday.

I understand you brought this for me.

Well, not exactly, maestro.

I brought it over to show you.

You always say you can`t understand

what a man sees in my profession.

Well, I wanted you to Iook in and see.

Oh. The Iast time I saw you, Pepe,

you were terribly excited.

You were Iooking

for a very important bug.

-Well, have you found it?.

-Not yet.

Why not?.

Well, for one thing,

we don`t know what it Iooks Iike.

You don`t?.

No.

Did you hear that?. Ha, ha.

He`s Iooking for something he can`t find.

But even if he did find it,

he wouldn`t know what it Iooks Iike.

Now, there--

There is a profession for you.

[ALL LAUGHING]

Bullfighting is easier, huh, maestro?.

That reminds me, where is Mario?.

-Uh....

-Uh....

He chose a fine bull for tomorrow,

a beauty.

He`s got horn this wide

and a red gleam in his eyes...

-...and a neck just Iike a--

-Like a bull, I`m sure.

Where is Mario?.

Well, he`s resting, maestro.
