[officer, echoing] Rocío Owono Durán. You can go.
[tense music continues]
[tense music fades]
Rocío's all right. They let her go.
Why don't you have clothes on?
Dude, if you don't come out, my dad'll be pissed.
He can go fuck himself.
What's that smell? What did you do?
- Eric, what did you do? - Get outta here!
[birds singing]
[Alfonso] Where's your cousin?
Okay, yeah. I've had enough.
Dad, he's not feeling well.
Let him stay home just this once. Relax. It's not a big deal.
When he's like this, we leave him alone.
María, he can't just do whatever he wants.
That's not how this works.
Good morning, family.
Good morning, honey. How are you? You all right?
Yeah, Auntie. I'm great. Why?
- [Eric singing] - [engine starts]
[Nico sniffles]
[speaking inaudibly]
[Virginia on PA] Good morning.
ARE YOU COMING TO SCHOOL?
[Virginia] And welcome to the first Pan-African Gathering for Excellence.
[Eric] Hey, Chloe!
[Virginia] As part of the Excellentia Academic Global League,
today Las Encinas is proud to present its exchange scholarships
with the two best private schools on the African continent.
The Lua Jean school in Maputo, Mozambique,
and Parkhurst College in Cape Town, South Africa.
Thanks to the initiative of the Catalina Durán
Hispanic-Pan-African Foundation.
I can't keep pulling strings
to get you out of this sort of situation, Rocío.
I'm sorry, Mom.
The pressure on women that look like us is triple.
You can't change things through squatting. Whereas as a judge, I can do something.
[sighs]
Take advantage of the education we're giving you
to try and learn to change things in an intelligent way.
And a civilized one.
Your gear for the match and your dress for the gala are in the trunk.
Get them and go inside.
C'mon. Let me skip school.
I'm exhausted. I need a shower.
You can shower and change at school.
[Rocío sighs]
I've been organizing this with Virginia for a while.
[Rocío sighs]
[trunk opens]
[indistinct chatter]
What's up?
Morning.
I keep texting, and no response.
Am I smothering you?
[sighs] Look, Iván, you said you'd be fine with just friendship.
So we can be friends and also classmates.
But ultimately, we've got our own lives to live.
Did you talk to Omar?
[sighs] See you in class.
Guys, this is Fikile.
She's a student from Parkhurst. Um, Cape Town.
- Hi. How are you? - Hi.
[Virginia] So you guys can talk a bit about the exchange.
Okay? Have a seat. Have fun.
- Nice to meet you guys. - [both] Nice to meet you.
Uh, and you can call me Fiks.
Okay.
Are any of you guys gonna apply for the exchange?
- I don't think so. - Mm. Not for now, no.
Ah, okay.
[crowd cheers and applauds]
- [camera shutter clicks] - [crowd whistles]
Holy shit! What the fuck is wrong with you?
Just come down here.
- Why? - I got something to show you.
Yeah, I'm good.
[clicks tongue] You're goddamn annoying.
Come down. Pretty please.
Now what?
["Alala" by CSS playing on speaker]
[Eric] It's on our playlist.
Don't you ever get tired of degrading yourself to get some attention?
[laughs] You make sex tapes. You tell me.
[quietly] Wow.

Sorry. I'm just trying to be cool with you, but you keep locking me out.

- [song stops] - For real? That's awful.
They arrested me, and he did nothing.
- He confuses me. - [sighs]
After that and walking in on me, he came home, head covered in blood.
And this morning, he was impossible to deal with.
Five minutes later, he's singing like nothing was wrong.
You know one of his tattoos is a semicolon, right?
I don't know. He has so many bruises, it's hard to tell what's what.
- Why? - [Eric] Go, Rocío! Let's go!
Was that him just now?
Rocío! Rocío!
Listen, dude.
I'm gonna have to keep him at arm's length.
- I hope you understand. - No, yeah. I do. I get it.
[Eric chanting] Rocío! Rocío!
- Are they asking for help or something? - No, he's excited.

[Isa] Are you sure?
I'm fine. Thanks.
[Fiks] Come on.
Let's go.
[music grows somber]
[crowd continues cheering]
[music fades]
I never imagined that a casual match would have that effect.
You must've had an inkling. Otherwise, you would've played.
- Right? - [Fiks] Mm-hmm.
Why don't you apply for the exchange?
Go to South Africa. That way, you can get a break, you know?
Time and distance really are the best medicine.
[tense music pulsing]
How do I apply for this exchange?
I'll show you.

TALK REPORTS
[Omar] 90% of people who kill themselves show warning signs beforehand.
People think they're cries for attention. And they're not. They're reaching out.
I'll pass your reports on to the Psychology and Pedagogy Department.
And that's it?
They're the experts, Omar. Whereas you just do the paperwork.
[Omar sighs, scoffs]
[speaking inaudibly]
[Luis] Was there anything else?
Yeah.
A list of students getting scholarships for tuition.
That's confidential, and you know it.
[somber music playing]
[under breath] Son of a bitch.
Okay. I sent you the app login.
So you can read and reply if you see anything out of the ordinary.
I can't handle this alone, and that idiot Luis is useless.
Is that why you haven't responded?
You don't think you're capable?
And because I once said those same words myself.
It's just too much for me.
How'd you pull yourself out?
[thunder rumbles]
[somber music playing]
[Omar breathing shakily]
[Joel] Omar?
Omar!
It's Joel from the association. Do you remember me?
Get outta here.
Omar, please, don't do this.
Go away, please.
Omar, look at me.
[crying] No. I can't anymore.
No. I just can't.
Omar, please, look at me.
- [panting] - [Omar] Please.
Don't do this.
Please, Omar.
- [Omar exhales] - [Joel] That's it. There you go.
- That's better. - [emotional piano music playing]

IF YOU CAN'T DO IT ALONE, I'M HERE TO HELP WITH WHATEVER YOU NEED.
I KEEP MISTREATING PEOPLE WHO SHOW ME AFFECTION.
I FEEL LONELY, AND I'M TO BLAME.

Wanna take over?
Do you think some people are evil?
I mean, born that way?
I think there are people in lots of pain.
SEMICOLON TATTOO ANXIETY, DEPRESSION, SUICIDE ATTEMPT
[Eric] Hey. I'm so sorry for leaving you in the lurch.
I'd blow me off too. I was a coward.
[sighs] Well, you've apologized now. Thanks. See you.
[Eric] Please don't be mad at me.
- It's not like we're super close friends. - Yeah, but we could be, though.
After that moment we shared in the squat house, it was fuckin' great.
- Until it all went to shit. - I gotta run. Sorry.
[Rocío sighs]
I know I'm a piece of shit who disappoints everyone.
That's why I always end up alone!
[quietly] Eric, not right now.
What else could it be?
Fear? I scare you? Just tell me.
Tell me I scare you and that you'd rather ghost me entirely.
'Cause I'm not worth it.
You don't get my actions, and it's scaring you away.
Like my parents.
[somber music playing]
Or don't say anything.
So I can stop thinking that you were ever worth it.
[somber music intensifies]
[muffled] Hey! Eric! Hey!
Eric, look at me. Breathe.
Breathe.
Come on, breathe.
That's it. You got this.
That's it. Calm down. I'm here.

SARAUL.GOALS HAS HIGHLIGHTED A STORY.
[Raúl on phone] Tonight, we've seen a lot of bling-bling,
but one more gem's gotta shine.
Sara...
will you be my wife?
[girl laughs]
[heart thumping]
- [background sounds fade] - [heart beats faster, echoing]
- [beating stops] - Baby, are you okay?
Yeah.
I mean, I think your boyfriend was being a bit extra with that proposal,
to be honest.
We're too young to be putting all of our eggs in one basket.
How's it going with Dídac?
Fine.
Yeah, it's going all right.
I'm still trying to forget about him, but it's fine.
Anyway, nothing that a good party can't cure, my darling.
Okay, guys!
Let's show our African friends how we throw a good party here, right?
Oh no, honey.
It is us who have come to show you.
Oh, honey. We'll see.
Oh, yes, we will.
["Mama dey Party" by Bryte playing]
C'mon, party! Whoo!
Are you sure people are not gonna hate us for this?
This is not cultural appropriation?
Girl, what? No. We are the organizers, okay?
We gave you this dress code
because we want you to have a full, immersive party experience.
Love it. You guys are in charge. This is your home.
- You can do whatever you want. - Thank you.
Whoo!
[girl cheers]
[song stops abruptly]
[keys jangling]
How is he?
He took the pill, calmed down, and went to bed, but he was a wreck.
Coz! Why aren't you dressed yet?
- What are you talking about? - They're all at the party.
Well, maybe you should stay home tonight.
[Eric] No. I'm in the mood to get turnt.
Plus, the African kids are here. We gotta be good hosts.
Listen to your aunt.
- You got three minutes, Nico. - I don't think you should go out.
- You're not coming? Then I'm out. - [María] Eric.
- Later. - Eric, dear. Wait a minute--
[door slams]
Nico. Nico, honey. Tag along.
Please keep an eye on him.
Shit, María. He'll take Nico down with him.
Dad, don't worry about me. I can handle it.
[woman] Can you think of a better idea?
Are you serious?
Tell me you're not serious right now.
You know who they remind me of?
- Who? - My parents, when they're fighting.
I see. [chuckles]
My parents fight all the time too, to be honest.
Do you think you and I will be like that 20 years from now?
Hysterical, frustrated, and loud?
I mean, I think that the worst snake oil they try to sell us in life
is the urge to grow up.
Because when you do, and life just knocks you down,
then you're like these two morons.
And then, all you want to do is to be our age again and immature.
[Dídac chuckles softly]
Let's make the most of it while we're young.
- [Isa] Mm-hmm. - [cell phone chimes]
- What's up? - I'm not sure.
- Ooh. - What?
Something's up with the music. That's weird.
- No. - I gotta go.
- No. [sighs] - Yeah, I gotta fix it. I'll see you later.
- Yeah, from afar. - [man 1] For heaven's sake.
[woman] I'm leaving.
- Get away from me! - [man 1] Jesus fucking Christ!
- [dramatic music plays on laptop] - [door opens]
[man 2] I truly appreciate you meeting with me again.
- [door closes] - [man 2] Seriously, I'm telling you.
It's really wonderful, the way that you've been working, Cata.
Thank you. Again, please forgive me for rushing you so much.
[on headphones] With this eviction, it would cause us to lose time.
Luena, don't leave yet.
[man 2] While they gain opportunities. Don't you get it?
Huh? Huh?
There. Two hundred.
Feel free to count it, Catalina. Take your time.
I trust you.
But this is the last favor, Martín.
- It's always the last one. - [Catalina] No.
When I moved the social center's eviction ahead, my daughter was arrested.
I'm not putting myself at risk anymore.
She says she moved the eviction up. Find me judges named Catalina.
- We don't have a warrant for it, though. - Well, he's bribing her, so fuck that.
[ominous music playing]
- Oh shit. - What?
Her daughter goes to school with Isadora and Dídac.

I just wanted to see the look of surprise on your face.
[Isa] Oh, I missed you so much.
- Yeah. I'm so happy to be here. - Hi, Isa.
- [Isa] Mm. - I'm going.
- Talk later. - Yeah.
- Sweetie, you are gorgeous. - What was Rocío's mother doing here?
- Don't worry. I'll explain it in a bit. - Talking about exchange scholarships.
Ultimately, we pay a ton of money for them.
And us parents have to deal with everything. It's not fair.
Mom, if I wanted to be lied to, I would've asked you, but I asked Papá.
- See how she treats me? All the time. - Can we please... Yeah.
Let's, uh, try to play nice and have a drink. Us three.
- It'll be so nice after all this time. - Come on, dear.

Okay. Why's a teacher texting a student?
Just class stuff.

What are you talking about?
Here's to Sara and Raúl.

- Hey. What's up? - - Look, here we are with Saraul. - Goals.
Yeah! And also with the African exchange students,

- Here's to all you beautiful people. - [laughs] Yep. Hello. See you later.
- [Joel] All together! - [Dalmar] Have you seen this?
- [Joel] Come on. - [Dalmar] He wants to be an influencer.
- He's in for a rude awakening. - [Omar] What makes you say that?
[Joel] The drinks, the lights, the music, everything...
Well, since he has a few thousand followers,
he says that he can live off that if he puts in the time.
- He'll quit working? - [Dalmar] He better not.
I can't pay more for this apartment
'cause he wants to scratch his dick and post stories.

In the end, I'm hurting both of you.
But the thing is...
the thing is, I need to do right by Omar.
Because I love him, and...
and I feel like... I feel like I'm letting him down.
And we don't deserve this.
Not you, me, or him.
Work things out with him.
And tell him he's a lucky guy.

He wants to do the exchange program. So he can get a fresh start.
[Carmen] Where to?
South Africa.
- Where? - Yes. And we're gonna leave him alone.
'Cause what he needs is time and space to find himself again.
Not to have a dopey mother show up. Much less me as a sister.

I'm in your debt, really.
There's nothing to repay.
Great. Neither of us owes anything.

Okay. Aren't you his mother?
Think what's best for him.
He doesn't need you, Mom.
He doesn't need us. Not now.
Okay?
- Please, I said no. - [doorbell rings]
[quietly] Jesus Christ.
- Hi. - [Carmen] Hi, sweetheart.
I came to thank you for how nicely you treated Chloe.
No worries. She needed a friend.
See? You're such an angel. Can we come in?
I'd also like to talk to you about something important.
- [Iván] Is something the matter? - No.
Can I tell you in there?
Sure, come in.
Coming or not?
- Hello. - [Chloe] Hello.
Why are you here?
Well, I came to see you, but... but I can leave if you're busy.
No, you're good. I swear.
You can come in 'cause we were just leaving.
Mom, you and I are going home.
Hey, are you all right?
[Joel sighs]
So you know, for me, it was also one of the best nights in a long time.
[both chuckle]
Now, let's go.
Iván deserves a good time, okay?
I'm going to tell him, Chloe.
Okay. But how 'bout another day, all right?
