This is good, Lyn. You did good.
I'll be right there.
The baby... it's coming.
I'm just looking out for my girl.
"My girl"?
- I don't want to see you. - He took advantage of her!
She is not welcome here.
Wash her out!
The husband is still alive.
Vidalia died still being married to that man.
Do the girls know he's not dead?
Mon Chou Chou!
She's my ex. Things are done with us.
I like you, Emma.
And you like me too.

Babe! Listen to this.
"Vida seems to have materialized overnight
into the epicenter of LA's Latinx SoundCloud generation"!
What is that?
It's, like, a legit review from Saturday.
Absolute rave.
"This neighborhood haunt
"is quickly reclaiming itself as a local fixture
with a reach well beyond the Sixth Street Bridge."
Do you die?
I'm so happy for you, babe.
I know, right?
And this is just the beginning.
Wait until I send them a press release
of everything that I have planned.
I am going to make Vida
into the spot of what's happening
and now in Latinx culture.
Oh, my God, feel my heart.
Doesn't it feel like I just did a superset?
Mm.
- I'm so proud of you. - Aww.
So proud that I want to show you off.
That's funny.
Because being shown off is one of my favorite things.
Do you want to be shown off
at my mother's birthday party, tonight?
Mm.
Well, okay, not show you off,
but is it too soon to bring you to a family thing like that?
I-I know that... Well, you made it clear
that you don't want me to call you my girl,
and I know that we haven't had the whole talk
about what we're doing,
but I really like what we're doing,
and I'd love to have you there tonight
to just, you know... oh, fuck.
Always, right?
Always out of line.
I would... so love...
to go and celebrate your mother with you tonight.
Also, who says I'm not your girl?
I just realized I don't know what I'm eating.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I would eat
Takis-flavored flan if you made it,
but this is what?
It's, like, your version of pitaquiles.
Am I gonna die?
I told you, I don't cook.
I just mix things together and reheat them.
Now, let me finish this.
Well, that was a very entertaining essay
about sexism in the military.
And how to make an adult woman cum in a bunk bed.
Is it autobiographical?
Kind of. It's about an ex.
- Zoe. - No.
Someone from when I was on duty.
And we sort of developed this sexist trauma coping bond.
When you're in the service, you-you cope weird sometimes.
For me, I guess I just always ended up
finding a shiny object to distract me.
Was Zoe a distraction too?
Something like that.
Except more complicated.
And what am I?
Oh, no, no, no.
I'm not falling in that quicksand.
Nope.
Hey, those are kind of good, by the way.
So...
Okay, do I have a pattern?
I don't know.
All I will say is that
I am very attracted to challenging women.
Oh, that's what you think of me.
- That I'm difficult. - Oh, girl.
You're not putting words in my mouth.
Okay.
Okay, we need to get out of this room.
Oh, my God, I'm fermenting.
Been locked in here in our own... Au jus?
I know, I like it.
That Emma funk... Oh, God, what?
I'm serious, let's get cleaned up,
and let's pick up this pigsty.
Please.

Yeah.

From The Princess Bride?
"Since the invention of the kiss,
"there have only been five kisses
"that were rated the most passionate,
"the most pure.
This one left them all behind."
I'm sorry.
I-I'm not into fairy tales.
You're fucked up.
Oh, shit, Mari, sorry.
Wait. Gotta knock at least, shit.
I brought you some champurrado.
Some tamales in there too.
Mm, thanks.
How was it?
- Last night? - Uh-huh.
Shit, I just kept thinking, like,
how long has this couch been here?
Since apá ran the shop, right?
Yeah, yeah, we were little chamaquitos since he had that.
Guácala, man.
I'ma have to put, like, triple sheets on it or something.
Hey, and since this seems like
it's gonna be my living situation till further notice,
I don't want my ass to fall into the dirty toilet water,
so can you finally add a damn toilet seat, please?
Yeah, no. I-I've been meaning to.
I'm sorry you have to stay here, Mari.
- How's the baby? - Oh, man.
I can't stop looking at her. She's so perfect.
You know, I used to make fun of people
who want to show off their baby pictures all the time,
but...
Mm, I just want to bite her little cheeks.
Right? I do too.
I wish I could've spent more time with her yesterday,
pero I had to get my bike fixed.
I started a new job, so I need it,
gotta make that money, you know?
Oh, which reminds me...
Thanks for spotting me for that Tdap vaccine.
Here's your change.
I didn't even know you needed a new vaccine
to see a baby... Never done it before.
Yeah, Carla is being super protective of Elenita.
Well, it seems like it's going...
I don't know, it seems like you guys are getting along, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, a baby changes you, man.
It changes your priorities.
Carla and I are making it work.
All right. Man.
Got this work orientation thing.
I don't want to be late.
I can't keep up with your hustle.
Well, if I want to get
my own place with my own toilet seat,
then I need to stay on my grind.
Hey, uh, don't forget to take apá
to his blood transfusion appointment.
He gets todo, like, woozy after,
so you gotta, like, sit with him for a minute.
You know when I told him
he had to get a shot to meet the baby,
he got all berrinchudo?
Such a fucking handful.
Yeah, I'll take him.
All right, thanks for breakfast.
Mm.
Boyle Heights se defiende, el barrio no se vende.
Seriously, having the cops arrest them
for almost blinding me wasn't enough?
Hey, babe, these antifa types
have nothing better to do que chingar.
Trust me, I know firsthand.
But, like, look.
That shared office space
that's opening up right behind them,
like, I get protesting that, but us?
Literally just turn around. Turn around.
Boyle Heights se defiende...
Should I call a couple of my sheriff friends, hmm?
To come keep the peace?
No. Can you imagine?
No, we would look...
No.
Look who showed up on the parking lot.
- Pito boyfriend. - Go ahead.
Basic ass whitetina.
Pinche arrepentida, ¿no te da vergüenza?
Get out of here, nobody wants you!
Coconut Barbie!
Parking lot pito!
And remember, it's cocktail attire.
I'll see you tonight, babe.
Nobody wants you, coconut Barbie.
Ooh, look!
- Yeah, I'll see you tonight. - Coconut Barbie!
Go back to Coachella.
Pinche coconut Barbie.
Go get a spray tan! Get the fuck out of here!
Coconut Barbie.
Nobody wants you here!
Oof, that cat pee's pungent.
Blanca, you got cats?
Nope.
I'll grab some trash bags.
Oh, from your BDSM days.
Needs un chingo de Clorox.
Remember Tetris?
I remember this guy.
I don't.
She got trapped under some pussy for eight years.
Oh, so now Vida was just some pussy?
Vida set you straight.
Uh, well, she set you right.
I just got all lost.
Carnala, this has got to go.
You're never gonna use a Raiders beer hat.
You don't know that.
All this shit has to go.
Rock, we came to grab some clothes, y ya.
See, this is why I didn't want to take a ride from you.
'Cause I knew que te ibas a poner all Marie Kondo and shit.
Well, I don't understand why you don't go back there and just get your clothes.
You gonna walk around toda apretada
'cause you scared of those two?
I'm not scared.
I just don't want to be the asshole that tells them
that their father's been alive and well all this time.
I'm sorry.
You know I'm not a fan of those two.
But it's shitty that you're gonna let them
stay in the dark like that.
Fucking Vida, man. This is not my drama.
This... this is Vida drama.
I shouldn't be all tangled up in this.
Fine.
But I'm not gonna tell them face-to-face.
I'll write them a letter.
Y ya, quit talking about this and help me find some chones.
"No one puts baby in a corner"?
I like reading.
- The Sandlot? - Are you talking to me?
You're killing me, Emma. Jesus.
What about Robin Hood: Men in Tights?
Come on, what were you doing between seven and now?
- Oh, hello, good morning! - What am I getting myself...
It's okay, no one has to thank me for staying away all weekend
so you two could have your finger fiesta.
It's fine.
Lyn, please tell me that you've seen "Princess Bride."
Hello.
My name is Inigo Montoya.
You killed my father. Prepare to die.
See? Case in point.
The only people that haven't seen The Princess Bride
are the Amish or serial killers.
Lyn, when did you see it? Not when we were kids.
Well, isn't it, like, always on?
Yeah. Saw it last week.
The first time I saw it, though,
was at Hollywood Forever with a picnic and some absinthe.
It was epic.
Okay, well, who knew this was...
Well, Emma, there are certain movies that are, like,
so iconic that if you don't catch up and watch them,
you'll be totally lost at parties when people are like,
"There's no crying in baseball!"
I mean, I know that one.
I should hope so.
What's that face?
- It's the only one I got. - Mm.
Hello, hi.
And we're back from Isle of Lesbos.
I need you undivided so that I can tell you
about my super amazing plan that I made...
Okay, who did you book?
Can you just not interrupt?
I have this, like, whole thing that I...
Okay, okay.
I'm trying to book Nancy Sanchez,
but I also think that we should start doing DJs with a following.
So, for tonight,
we are having Linda Nuves spin.
Oh, hmm.
And Emma, just so you know, it's a total get.
But...
Because we are now... a hit...
and have been put on the map...
Did you read this?
No.
Well, there's a whole slate of things I think we should do.
We are a bar, right?
Correct.
And bars need badass drinking game nights,
so I think we should start with this one.
It's called Tragos.
You buy a drink. You pay to play.
First question:
If you still fear la chancla, take five sips.
I mean, who doesn't still have nightmares about la chancla?
One, two, three, four, five.
- What are you doing? - Oh, my God, look at that.
I already need another drink. So fun, right?
There's, like, a million games I think we could play each night.
You know how I tried to do lotería night
and it didn't quite... It was a bust.
'Scuse you.
It was my first try, and I had the wrong approach,
but there's no reason that that can't become
drunken lotería.
Hmm.
50 bucks gets you all 16 shots for the board.
And before you say anything, Emma,
I did the math and if we use these, like,
baby, mini half-shots, at $2.50 a shot,
we would still make money and, like, $10 profit.
So, that's my plan.
Math checks out.
It sounds great. How can I help?
Oh, my God.
Okay, thank you.
Uh, well,
tonight you can help me by holding down the fort.
Once I set up everything for the DJs
and leave everything ready,
'cause I have to go to
my boyfriend's... Yep, you heard me...
My boyfriend's mother's birthday party.
Of course there was gonna be a catch.
You think it and I make it happen.
No, I'm... I'm gonna...
Get the fuck out, pinche vendidas!
Oh, hell, no.
Oh, no, no, no. Emma, Emma, Emma.
Leave it, leave it.
They... They didn't even break it.
You know, it's one thing for them
to shout their bad puns out there,
but I'm not gonna let them terrorize us.
I just witnessed them trespassing.
And I can very much call the cops.
- Oh, no! - Yep.
No, um, oh, my God.
Emma, you sound just like Rudy.
No cops.
Just let them chant their chants out there.
We're turning the cheek.
We're basically famous now.
So, please, no rascuacheness.
Turning cheeks.
Teacup got followed home for no reason.
If one of those pigs ever tries to arrest you,
remember to go limp, okay?
They can't accuse you of throwing a punch
if your whole body's slack.
Fuck, that's genius.
Well, well, well, look who showed up on Mari standard time.
What? I started a new job today.
Besides, the text didn't say this was a meeting.
No, but it did say it was urgent.
What are you walking around with an attitude like that, Mari?
- What? - Yeah.
Everyone saw you didn't do shit for Yoli
when she got led off in chains.
Just fucking stood there.
What was I supposed to do? I gave to her bail fund.
Besides, what the fuck did y'all do when Yoli was on the ground?
Not a goddamn thing.
And now you're over here trying to do a fucking TED Talk about resisting
when your ass has never even been arrested?
Get the fuck out of here.
Hey.
♪
- The DJ sounds unbelievable. - Mm-hmm.
And she has everything she needs,
so I think I'm gonna go get ready.
Okay.
Oh, also,
if it's gonna be this busy in here from now on...
And trust, it will...
We're gonna need an extra pair of hands.
Maybe Eddy's available?
I promise you, I mean it.
I didn't tell her where Vida was.
I didn't even tell her what the bar was called.
Bonjour.
I have been texting you and you keep leaving me on "read."
Thankfully, your location share's still on,
because otherwise, you know how freaked out I would've been?
Are you fucking serious, Zoe?
You got a tag on me like a dolphin in the fucking wild?
I was just worried.
We need to talk.
Well, I can't. I'm working.
I can wait.
Oh, concha tu madre.
Could I get a Muscadet, please?
I'm sorry, we don't serve wine.
Tequila, then.
Just nothing that starts with a J.
I'm really fucking sorry about this, Emma.
It's okay.
No hombre, jail was whatever.
But I had to answer to an even tougher authority
in the morning: my pissed off amá.
I feel you.
I'm glad you're good, Yoli. Talk later.
Bye, girl.
I made sure to call your amá so she wouldn't worry so much.
She told me.
Look, I'm so fucking sorry, Yoli.
It-it's fine.
It wouldn't do us both no good to end up jail.
I just... panicked, I guess.
I pulled out my phone
when they were putting you in the patrol car and I posted it.
I don't know why I didn't think to start recording earlier.
But look, it got a ton of views.
She came at me, man!
That's good money.
'Cause I'm not taking my foot off the pedal
with that bar and those two vendidas.
And it pisses me off so much that nothing happened
to that snooty-ass bitch who punched me.
And if that coconut Barbie
presses charges 'cause of the detergent
and fucks with my DACA?
I'm going scorched earth.

Ay, Rodolfo, qué grosero.
No le explicaste que era vestimenta de coctel.

Happy birthday.

Oh, she does, Mami. She understands it.
She was just born here, so she doesn't speak it that well.

Don't let her, okay?

You use us and you bring those little agitators to our...
No, no, no, hold on. I didn't bring them.
I tried to tell you, pero...
look, nothing that I say about that night
is gonna clear me in your eyes.
It was a very complicated and just fucked up night for me.
I messed up left and right.
Did you see what they did to Lyn?
Of course you didn't, you just stood there
while that bully put soap in her eyes.
Are you gonna press charges on her?
I should.
I know in your eyes she's a bully,
but Yoli... that's her name...
She's my best friend, and she's DACA.
And I don't know if you know about DACA,
but if she gets a stain on her record, she's fucked.
She threw detergent in my sister's eyes.
Is she gonna stop protesting us?
No, but you know, however bad the beef is with the neighborhood,
the shittiest thing you can do to your own people
is fuck with their status like that...
Oh, isn't that something?
No consequence for her, but she can keep fucking with us?
Well, maybe the vigilantes will get off your back
if you support some local groups or some orgs.
Maybe if you give back to the community
and make a thing about it, then they'll back off.
Don't come back here, Mari.
You really showed your true colors Saturday night.
You know, my father was undocumented.
And it didn't end well for him.
I would never go after someone's status.
I'm not a fucking monster.
Go ahead and slap me!
Slap me!
Go ahead! Just give me a fucking slap.
Nico, take her to the bathroom and put some water on her face.
Yeah. She's gotta get her ass home.

Oh, no, it's...
No, you're... you're fine.
I don't mind.
So are you Russian, or, like, Ukrainian?
I'm Polish.
Sorry.
I'm not so good at accents.
I can have a conversation in Russian if I focus.
I'm supposed to be bilingual too.
But it's all lies.
I can barely hold a conversation in English.
And in Spanish, I don't go past "Dora the Explorer" level.
- You are, uh, Mexican? - Mm, sort of.
No, I am.
But those people in there?
They might think otherwise.
I thought everybody inside was Mexican.
Oh, yes. The most.
But I don't know if...
they'd consider me to be Mexican.
Technically, I'm second generation,
so... I'm Mexican-American.
Chicana.
That's what my mami used to call us.
But I'm not so political, so I don't know if I'm that.
Wow, did... did that drink just hit me?
I'm confused by what you mean.
It's a confusing thing to walk around looking like this,
where everyone non-Mexican only sees you as Mexican,
but then, like, the Mexico-Mexicans are like,
"No, eh, not Mexican enough."
All these stupid tests.
Just because I was born with a broken tongue.
Broken tongue's our language.
That's how language becomes language.

You can tell a person's story with their tongue.

I adapt.
I survive.
