Immigration Tango
[Mambo music playing]
[Pray For Rain singing
Baila Dineroin Spanish]
You're too beautiful
to wake.
I heard that.
You were speaking
in Russian.
What were you dreaming?
About you.
It would have been
in Spanish.
I dreamt I went back home
as an American.
I was with my family,
and they were all asking
about United States.
We were all very happy.
I made you some coffee.
Oh, it's so hot
for coffee, Carlos.
And I also made you
breakfast in bed.
Gracias, mi amor.
But I know something that
it's not too hot for, ever.
Do you know? Hmm?
[Alarm clock ringing]
You know what
I'm talking about?
Dej? Me sola!
Qu? Carajo!
Elena.
VANESSA BEGGS:
# You came to me #
# From far away
across the sea #
# I must concede
I now believe in destiny?
[Alarm clock buzzing]
# That we were simply
meant to be #
# It sounds nutty,
but I believe in destiny?
[Gasps]
What time is it?
Uh, it's almost 9:00.
How long were you at it?
Last time I looked,
it was almost 5:
00.I know.
I'm obsessing a little.
A little?
Okay, a lot.
But everything is riding
on this mock trial.
If I flunk, the only
thing I have to show
for the last five years
of my life
is a student loan
that rivals
the debt load of
Stop worrying
about it.
You'll pass.
I have to pee.
Can I have some privacy,
please?
Okay.
You were supposed
to wake me up early.
I did.
9:
15.That's early.
You were supposed
to get me out of bed,
not get in bed with me.
Hey, I can't help it if
I find you irresistible.
Weren't you supposed
to meet this guy
about managing his restaurant
this morning?
Olv? Dete.
Qu? Vas a ir?
Bueno.
Yo tengo raz? N.
I'm listening.
Actually, I'm not.
I'm late.
I'm gonna go get a real job,
one that pays the rent
on this boat.
I have a job.
Yeah, one that pays
minimum wage, no benefits.
Elena, I'm not management
material, okay?
I don't even own a tie.
I'm an artist, a chef.
That kind of job would
choke the life out of me.
What if you
get sick or hurt?
I won't.
You work in the kitchen
with fire, knives.
You'll take care of me.
You're impossible.
You're beautiful.
What do you think?
Good for an American company?
I would hire you
just to stare at you
all day long.
Wish me good luck.
Good luck.
Nice ass.
I need coffee,
Xanax, something.
Stress is
driving me crazy.
Easy for you to stay,
Mr. Full Ride Scholarship.
I got lucky.
It's not my fault
that I was
the only person
who applied
for that fellowship.
And to have parents that pay
your share of the rent.
It's a loan.
I'm gonna pay 'em back
when I get my PhD.
You know that.
What year might that be?
Ho. I resent that.
I'm sorry, honey.
How long have you been working
on this thesis now?
This dissertation?
[Laughs]
Yeah, it's not
about getting it done
by a deadline, but
getting it done well,
presenting
the English sonnet
in relation to
its form and history.
Must be hard to work up heat
for 14th-century novels.
[Laughs] You know what?
I agree with you.
Um, around here,
it's been hard
to work up anything,
period.
Ouch.
Well, what was the
last time we made love?
It will get better when I
getthrough this semester.
I feel like I heard that
last semester.
I'll make it up to you.
I promise.
Yeah?
By the way,
we need clean towels.
No, no. You're
laundry this week.
Mmm.
Until the 15th, I'm groceries,
garbage, dry cleaning,
and you are laundry,
cleaning and bills.
