He's married.

So who was that guy?

That's just an idiot that I use

for money now and then.

No, we haven't asked for anything else.

The guys at the bar bought you them.

- No, but we don't want--

- Excuse me, but they've already paid.

What's wrong with you? It's free beer.

Just put on your best smile.

- Karen, Karen.

- Listen...

- Well, thank you very much.

- We can come in for awhile, no?

The sun is rising.

Come on, just a little while.

- We had a good time, didn't we?

- No, no.

Really. That's enough.

- Karen.

- I'll have a last sip.

Karen.

Well, thanks a lot. Really.

- Keep in touch.

- I'll call you.

- See you later.

- Bye, Karen.

- We had a good time. No complaints.

- I'll never be able to get rid of him.

Look, honey, lesson one.

You never give your real number.

Otherwise, you can't shake them off.

Come on, that's shameless.

Just a little bit.

And Horacio?

He's at work. So it's not a problem.

No, miss. Thank you.

I haven't even asked you yet. Please.

No, thanks.

Not at the moment. Thank you.

Thank you.

At the moment, no.

- Good afternoon.

- Hello.

The lunch options are Ajiaco, Mondongo,

vegetable soup and the main course.

I'll have the vegetable soup

and the main course, please.

Sure.

One order of vegetable soup

with main dish. Hurry up, girl!

- Something wrong, ma'am?

- My bag has been stolen.

- You're sure it was here?

- I'm sure.

I arrived, and I hung it here

when I sat down.

It was a big, black leather bag.

I have no money to pay you.

What?

And so?

What do we do?

Look, I'll leave you my ring

as a guarantee

and tomorrow I'll come and pay, okay?

- Until tomorrow only.

- Yes, sir. I promise.

"No money to pay."

- Thank you very much.

- Eating for free.

I know that's the rules,

but you told me one thing

I know that's the rules,

but you told me one thing

and now you're saying another.

Now I need to sell two more courses?

This is a scam.

You're misleading people.

I'm going to sue.

Stay here if you want to be ripped off.

Now you'll fly over there.

Oh, you broke your back.

- Hi!

- Hi.

- What's your name?

- Karen. And yours?

- Sergio.

- How old are you?

- Five.

- Guess how old I am.

- 16?

- Don't bother the lady.

- I'm not bothering her!

- He isn't bothering me. Don't worry.

- Bye, Sergio.

- Come on, son. My apologies.

- Alejandro, some cigarettes, please.

- Sure, Mr. Enrique.

I'll give them to you right away.

Hello.

Excuse me. My bag was stolen

and I have no money to take the bus.

Can you help me out?

- No. I don't have any money.

- Thanks.

- Look. Take it.

- Thank you so much. Really, thanks.

Hi, ma'am, excuse me. My bag was stolen.
