Pulling Strings Page #5

Synopsis: Rachel is an intelligent, modern-day woman constantly on the move. Primarily focused on her career as a diplomatic consul for the U.S. embassy, she's literally lived her life on the move, globe-trotting from city to city. Currently working in Mexico City and set to leave for London, Rachel's world turns upside down on the eve of her own goodbye party when she gets drunk and passes out on the street. Saved by Alejandro, a handsome Mariachi singer and single father, Rachel wakes up in his apartment with no recollection of how she got there. Nor does she remember that she rejected his visa the day before, which he desperately needs for his daughter. Romance unexpectedly blossoms between the two, but either sparks or fists will fly after she finds out his secret.

I'll leave you.

I'll go make some public relations.

Mr. Margarito.

Cosme and Mr. Gus sent us.

Thank you.

My friend here lost her computer.

Right? And we have to find it.

It is very important.

Order two more shots of the good one.

You want...? Yes, sure.

Are you gringa?

Yes.

Here's the good one.

You are Alejandro Fernandez, right?

- Yes.

- You are the good one.

- There you will find what you want.

- Thanks.

You need to stop being afraid.

Your destiny is to return.

We're leaving now. Thanks!

Order two more.

The good one this time, cheap bastard.

- We need elephants.

- I know, right?

Where should we put them?

Not next to the lions.

They would eat them.

Lions don't eat elephants.

And our lions eat chocolate,

or they would have eaten...

- ... the weird jellyfish...

- Chocolate.

...that horrible monkey...

...the owl, and of course the ladybug.

I have to sign this, right?

CITATION:

PARENT OR GUARDIAN

What's this? Another report?

- What did you do now?

- I pulled Susie Rosa's hair.

Why did you pull Susie Rosa's hair?

She called me "Maria chis"

because you are a mariachi.

Awful joke. But, Maria...

What? You hit a guy

with your guitar the other day.

Wait a second, young lady.

I hit him with the guitar...

I know, I know...

...it was the one who came

to request money the other day.

And I was thinking...

Look.

What's this?

All my jewelry. You give it to him

and you don't have to break your guitar.

But if he keeps bothering you...

...we kick his ass,

like Uncle Canicas says.

Antique Store - My White Illusion.

EVERYTHING FOR YOUR COMPUTER

maxestor.

Good morning.

Good day.

Welcome to the "maxestor. "

I'm Max. How can I help you?

Max, we're here because

we heard you're good with computers.

So? Yeah, I'm good. I know it all.

If it's got keys,

I know how to play them.

My friend here lost a computer

near Cuauhtemoc.

They sent us to you. Mr. Margarito.

Mr. Magos.

He's my godfather. PC or Mac?

Of course.

Yes, of course.

It's a MacBook...

It's a 13 inch MacBook Pro.

- Yes.

- Blue polycarbonate cover...

- ... and it comes in a briefcase, right?

- Yes.

- Yes, that's it.

- Yes, I have it.

- But it's not here. Not here.

- What?

What did you want?

This place is just for service.

- What? - It's in the warehouse

with the luxury stuff.

But my cousin Proton

is the warehouse manager.

I can call him and tell him to bring it.

When will your cousin bring it, Max?

Tonight.

He's not there now. He went to a fair

to install light and sound.

We have to go. Max, I'll see you tonight.

- Okay, gracias.

- Cool, Ale.

Applause...

...for this great impression...

...of Michael Jackson.
