I'm talking to you, it's like

you haven't aged a bit

since we first met. Remember?

Yes, I do.

And if I close my eyes when I'm

talking to you, it's like you've

never changed... you still have

the stink of other women on you.

I'd leave her in a heartbeat

if you'd take me back.

Don't worry,

she doesn't speak english.

Chinga su madre.

Wait! Wait! Look, you gotta wait

and say goodbye to Blanca.

Just tell her bye for me.

No, don't let me do your

dirty work for you again,

damnit!

Is it gonna be okay?

Oh, it's gonna be fine.

The car is just old...

like us.

It just got too excited.

Why didn't you warn me?!

I would never have driven

so fast!

Calm down, mujer.

The car's going to be fine.

All we have to do is

let it cool down.

How would you know?

You're just a gardener.

So, the car is the only thing

that matters to you!

This is all

so unnecessary.

If we would have just given her

a little bit more time, it would

all be fine.

Don't blame me.

My uncle sent us

to get you guys.

But I'm sure you're right...

About the car.

Whenever they act up, all you

need to do is give 'em

a little time and love.

And before you know it, they'll

be purring like before.

What were you two

doing out here?

What were you two doing

earlier speeding down the

street, hmm?

How have you been treating

my Nana?

Young man, have you been

treating her right?

Nana!

I'm just worried about

your reputation, darling.

Worry about your own.

Will you be going to

the reception?

Beat it, would you?!

You guys are so mean.

Come on, Carla,

give him a chance.

Please.

What's going on between

the two of you?

We just talk and stuff.

Sure.

Hmm.

Did you ever have one?

No. I think they're

a little weird, you know.

It's like you're supposed to be

a woman at fifteen.

I mean, I'm seventeen, and

I still don't feel like...

Anyway, it's just like

practicing for your real

wedding, and I don't ever

intend to get married, so...

you can't know that.

Trust me, it's one of the

things I do know.

It's just like this big setup

for disappointment.

I mean, I've never met anybody

who's ever been happy

in a marriage.

What about your grandparents?

Hmm... I don't think they were

ever really in love.

I mean, if they were,

they sure as hell hid it.

And they were always fighting.

Just like my parents.

Just because your parents

didn't seem to get things right,

doesn't mean that we're gonna

repeat their mistakes.

You really believe that?

God, I hope so.

Are you going to keep on

walking back and forth like

that, or are you coming in?

Hmm.

I didn't know you can make

a soup like this.

I make my soup

the way I like it.

No.

The car is not the only thing
