-Bonsoir. -Bonsoir.
-How are you adjusting? -Better.
Good.
Congratulations, de la Torre.
-She’s a very lucky woman. -Not as much as I am.
Monsignor. A pleasure seeing you.
Your father would be proud. It’s what he wanted for you.
I would like to think so.
Don Felipe, always a pleasure seeing you.
You should come by the house.
I have some new cigars I think you’ll enjoy.
You don’t say.
Excuse me.
Ignacio.
Carmen, it turned out exquisite.
I’m glad you came, Ignacio.
Amada is waiting for you.
Modest.
It belonged to Ignacio’s mother.
Poor woman.
If only she knew where it would end up.
On your sister’s hand, Luz.
Half sister.
Don’t worry. You too will soon find husbands.
Sure.
I hope he is a foreigner.
Like Romain.
Lorenza and Romain.
Will you excuse me?
Ladies.
I hope you have no objection to me stealing Amanda.
Just in time.
And to think, in my hometown, all I wanted was a little sister.
You look lovely.
Félix!
Ignacio.
I knew something was missing from this party.
Mr. President, I apologize for being late.
Félix.
So effusive, as always.
Congratulations, Ignacio.
I heard you finally got appointed to Congress.
What a nice wedding present.
No doubt that Mr. President is quite generous.
Only to the deserving.
Thank you for your trust, Mr. President.
What is given can also be taken away.
So you better honor your part of the deal.
To make my daughter happy.
That’s all I want in life.
But Villada is one of the president’s men.
And now, so am I.
Does Díaz know about this?
I wanted to consult with you first.
If he found out, he’d consider it treason.
Do you…
or do you not want to replace Villada?
Of course.
But why with you?
If the president were to change the official candidate…
who else would he choose?
Perhaps my memory is failing me, but I don’t think I’ve seen you before.
I just started here.
Evaristo Rivas.
Ignacio de la Torre.
-Nice to meet you. -Likewise.
Do you usually stay here so late?
A bad habit.
One I share.
May your union be fertile.
May the both of you see your children’s children,
and after a happy old age, may you arrive at the pearly gates
to be met by Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
It’s almost a miracle everything turned out so well.
The dance floor was crowded when we left.
Even Luz congratulated me.
The Limantours left early.
I hope it wasn’t because of the food.
Don’t you think we’ve toasted enough?
It’s never enough.
This is Dolores, your personal maid.
Socorro and Francisca are the two other maids.
Doña Gertrudis, the cook.
Marco is the valet.
Doroteo,
Francisco, Roberto, Aníbal…
and Lucas.
Isidro is the cook’s assistant, as is Juan.
And Mateo is the stable boy.
I was about to leave, and…
I thought you might want a drink.
I was going to work for my father, but that wasn’t going to end well.
So I came here instead.
Is your whole family still in San Luis?
Let’s say that the distance does us good.
When my father was alive…
I volunteered to visit the estates.
The farther the better.
“The farther the better.”
And what does Mrs. Rivas think?
There isn’t one.
Waiting for the right one?
And waste my time?
-Yes? -Mr. Congressman.
I was about to leave. Do you need anything else?
No, thanks. You can go and rest now.
-If I may? -It’s okay.
You were playing well.
You need to relax your wrists.
So your fingers fall on the keys with their own weight.
I may not know how to play piano,
but I bet you don’t know another woman who can clean, load, and set up a rifle.
Luckily.
What were you doing up so late?
I was waiting for you.
I don’t like you losing sleep on my account.
It’s the only way to see you.
Amada, it’s not proper for you to be like this in the living room.
Everyone’s asleep.
I haven’t finished my work for today.
-Can it wait till tomorrow? -It’s for your father.
Senator Téllez.
-After you, please. -Always so kind.
A box of El Buen Tono, please.
Good luck in the session tomorrow.
Wow. The nation’s son-in-law honors us with his presence.
Show some respect, please.
Ignacio.
My dear.
Mr. de la Torre!
Tell your wife we ladies all loved her dress.
It was divine.
-Who made it? -Enough.
-I’ll get you the tailor’s name later. -No, don’t give her any ideas.
Good evening.
-Good evening. -Good evening.
How’s married life?
Some duties are more difficult than others.
I met someone who could fit in well here.
Let me guess. You’ve already invited him.
Ignacio.
What do we have rules for?
For everyone else.
Nacho.
If you ever do this again,
-I’ll kick you out. -“I’ll kick you out.”
Listen, gentlemen. Who will--
I’m an old fox!
Thank you, Doctor.
Some rest will take your anxiety away.
She won’t forgive me for not inviting her to the wedding.
Dad and Carmelita didn’t let me.
Even though everyone knows she’s Indigenous.
How long has it been since you’ve seen her?
Six years.
Ignacio…
You and Dad are all I have.
Rest up.
You must take off your shirt.
Excuse me?
You may still leave if you wish.
Evaristo Rivas.
Have you come of your own free will?
Yes.
And do you know what unites us in brotherhood?
Socratic love.
And do you, Evaristo Rivas, confess to being eligible to join our society?
I do.
I’m a queer.
Do you swear to keep secret what occurs here, even under pressure?
I do.
Evaristo,
welcome to the Club of, now, the 42!
Welcome!
Gentlemen, let’s raise our glasses to our newest member.
Cheers!
I’ve never seen so many queers in one place.
I knew you’d appreciate it.
Did you go through this as well?
Who introduced you?
Don Felipe.
He was a close friend of my parents.
He invited me as a present for my 18th birthday.
Maximilian passed on the club to him before he was executed.
You’ll love it.
That’s Aristeo.
He’s the only founder left, but unfortunately, he rarely comes now.
Cheers!
Those two are senators.
That one is Agustin.
The newest member until you arrived.
Gabriel introduced him. They both like to wear women’s clothing.
Carlos is a board member of the Bank of London.
He’s a very interesting guy but sometimes a bit complicated.
Gustavo is a bit of an introvert, but he’s great.
And you’ve already met Rafael.
-Welcome. -Thank you.
-Where were you? -My dinner ran late.
-With whom? -Friends.
-You left me worried. -I’m sorry.
I didn’t have time to let you know.
I sent a message to Dad’s house.
They’re looking for you.
Why did you do that?
You didn’t show up. I assumed something terrible happened to you.
Next time, don’t worry so much about me.
I wouldn’t want you to faint again.
What’s going on here?
These gentlemen are asking for you.
Excuse us, sir. We were told something had happened to you.
-Well, now you see I’m okay. -We apologize.
-It’s a beautiful apology. -Do you accept it?
Wouldn’t it look better with a bracelet?
Maybe a pair of earrings?
If something was to happen for real,
at least we can count on my dad.
What a relief.
Did you think I wouldn’t find out?
Pardon me?
You’re conspiring against me.
Mr. President, I wouldn’t even try.
Then what do you call going behind my back to promote an agenda I oppose?
It’s no secret the ranchers are displeased with Villada.
They think I could defend their interests better because I share them.
And they suppose I’ll support you.
Are they mistaken?
You don’t even meet the criteria to be governor.
You need to grow up.
You’ve never hesitated to adjust the law to benefit the people, Mr. President.
How is my daughter?
Happy.
As always.
This conversation is over until you reach the legal age.
-Mr. President-- -Ignacio!
De la Torre. It’s your turn.
My wife wants to have a little suit made for him.
But I don’t think it’s a good gift for a boy.
He won’t be excited about it.
-How old is he now? -Ten.
A bicycle.
-Aren’t they dangerous? -They’re terrible.
On cobblestones, you get jostled around so much you could die.
I think there’s a new model with inflatable tires.
What will they invent next?
Well, if that’s true, I’ll buy him a bicycle.
And have the suit made too to avoid problems with my wife, right?
How modern of you!
I don’t mean the tires, but for giving in to Carolina so much.
When you’re part of a family, you have to compromise.
That’s something you’ll never understand.
Do you live here?
Since I was kicked out of my house.
You need to go out. Meet more people.
I think you’re in the right place.
Do you want to have fun?
Gentlemen, I sincerely apologize for having to leave you like this.
One more. A rematch.
And you?
Can’t even say hi?
How are you, Mr. Congressman?
I thought we had a deal.
And I thought you had more important things to do.
Ignacio.
-Stay a little longer. -No, it’s late.
He likes to ride his mare in the mornings.
Come with me.
Eva.
Put the chair in front of the mirror and the candle closer to the bed.
Ignacio.
What are you doing?
I don’t want you staying up because of me.
Please don’t change rooms.
We haven’t even been married for a year.
The doctor said you need to sleep well.
Did I do something wrong?
-Something that bothered you? -No.
Nothing.
This is a better arrangement.
For your health.
They agreed to leave us alone in the box.
When he gave me the ring, all the audience clapped.
I want a story like that!
There are plenty of stories like that. The problem is what comes next.
And how is it, Amada?
What comes next.
Well, I can’t complain.
The other day, Ignacio gave me a diamond necklace.
I couldn’t say no.
Has he had more dinners that last until the next day?
Luz.
Don’t be so thoughtless.
No, Luz.
No, no more long dinners.
Well, enjoy it while it lasts, dear.
These things disappear when you least expect.
One day, you’re his sun,
and the next, he’s gone to get warmed up in another place.
Isn’t that right, Carmelita?
-Elena, would you like a glass of water? -No.
-Anyone else? -No, thanks.
What a good time, right?
Did you like the gift I sent?
I didn’t think you would get so many signatures.
Now we’re just missing the most important one.
Álvaro, Manuel.
I want an in-depth report on this boy’s political viability.
Of course, Mr. President.
Thank you.
It’s not a “yes,” Ignacio.
It’s a “we’ll see.”
Excuse me.
What position?
Governor of the State of Mexico.
You have dishonored the woman.
En garde!
What a tragic penetration.
He had gonorrhea!
Since you’re all here, I would like to announce
that the annual ball will take place on November 17th.
In the immensity
Of the waves, floating, I saw you
And going to save you
The whole thumb, I stuck in
Your sweet vision Eternally engraved on my soul…
-I like that. I liked it. -You are tired.
Ladies, I think I’m going to turn in now.
Party pooper!
-But why, Nachito? -I have to plan my campaign for governor.
-Of what? -What else? Of Sodom!
-Of the State of Mexico. -Even worse.
I think you could become president, Nachito.
Evaristo would be the First Lady.
-Indeed! I like that. -Miss Blondie de la Torre.
Gentlemen, can you imagine?
Our next orgy could be at the Chapultepec Castle.
Yes! I’ll wrap myself in the flag.
-Ignacio de la Torre for governor! -Long live Nacho!
Shut up already!
Mr. de la Torre!
Don’t forget about your girls when setting up your cabinet.
Hey.
That’s what you get for encouraging them.
What’s going on, Félix?
People like to talk, Amada.
I AWOKE WITH THE SHIVERING OF YOUR KISSES ON MY BACK. EVA
I’m new at the bureau. They treat me very well.
My husband treats you very well?
Well, actually, I work with various senators, and…
I invited Eva to spend the evening with us.
You’ve been reading my mail.
You leave me no other option.
-I should come back some other time. -Sit down.
My husband is exhausted from working so much.
You must know better than I.
I was telling Amada about the work I do as your lawyer.
-Eva and I were talking about spending-- -It’s Mr. Rivas, Amada.
Talk properly. You’re not in your village.
Do you mind me calling you Eva?
No.
Eva and I talked about spending Saturday in the country.
I don’t think Mr. Rivas can.
He’s very busy with some contracts.
-I thought it was a bill. -That too.
Why did you come?
Because the invitation was in your name. “Mr. and Mrs. Ignacio de la Torre.”
Please, don’t come again.
Give it to me.
I won’t ask again.
Give it to me.
I’m not stupid enough to keep them there.
Amada!
Amada, what are you doing up there?
Amada!
Leave me alone!
Don’t slip.
Since when do you care what happens to me?
Get in the house.
You, go away!
Amada!
Go away!
Ignacio, you have to give me a child.
If you don’t, I’ll share what I know.
What will they say about you?
We’re married, Amada.
The least you can do is keep up appearances.
For me.
Doesn’t everyone think we’re…
deeply in love?
He probably won’t come today either.
Evaristo, it isn’t wise to behave like this.
Like husband and wife.
It won’t end well.
COME BACK, I MISS YOU. EVA
I’m afraid the electorate doesn’t have the best opinion of you.
I’m sure you can find a more favorable sample.
With all due respect, Mr. Congressman, your lifestyle is the talk of the town.
How do I know the results are not biased?
Because I guarantee it.
Who do you think advised the president on his last three reelections?
I advise you not to run.
You have no chance of winning.
And the general doesn’t like to lose.
Doña Carmen, Mr. President.
Ignacio.
I’m glad you could find the time.
-Did Álvaro and Manuel deliver the report? -Porfirio. Not now.
Not yet.
There will be time to talk about these issues over dinner.
…duality a little extreme.
-It was a bit more restrained. -Yes, not like now.
Now it seems like social encounters like this are much lighter.
Yes.
-More enjoyable. -More relaxed.
What a lovely house.
Thank you, Carmen. A pleasure to have you with us.
Red snapper with ravigote sauce, Dad.
Just how you like it.
Look at you.
Soon you’ll teach Luz how to be a good hostess.
It’s a little dry.
It’s delicious.
All you need now is to be a mother.
Porfirio.
What?
I can’t say that?
I want grandchildren.
How long have you been together?
-Ignacio. -We’re working on it.
That’s what I wanted to hear.
Did you know where the term “ravigote” comes from?
-No. -From French.
It means “vigor.”
This sauce invigorates the diners’ appetites
from its making to the time of ingestion.
How are you today?
What are you doing here?
A wife can’t visit her husband?
What are you doing?
I’ll cure you.
God free you of your sin…
Touch me again, and I’ll have you locked up in an asylum.
I’m not afraid of you. I was born in a battlefield.
Get out.
Not until you give me a child.
Let go of me!
Ignacio, give me a child.
Ignacio.
Amada, open up.
It’s for your own good.
Amada, open up.
Amada! Open up.
Open up!
Amada!
What is it, my daughter?
I’m worried about Ignacio, Dad.
Whatever you need, Amada.
-What’s wrong? -I’m being followed.
-By whom? -I don’t know, but I know who sent them.
Were you followed?
No. No, I don’t think so.
Let’s get out of here.
Where?
Out of the country.
That’s crazy.
I know.
We were starting to worry about you, Nachito.
-What is this? -Your new bodyguards.
-I don’t need them. -That’s not your decision.
Very well.
-So have them watch over Amada. -No.
They’re for you.
You don’t have the authority.
You’re mistaken, Ignacio.
I have all the authority.
And if you don’t like it, speak to the president,
Nachito.
Have them keep watch outside, Teo. They can’t be here.
Thank you, Teo.
-Who is it from? -Amada, this is unbearable.
Who is it from?
The tailor.
-They’re pressuring us, sir. -I get that, but what do they want?
A meeting with you.
No, I can’t. Tell them--
Mr. Congressman?
Tell them I have postponed running until the next cycle.
There we go.
You look gorgeous.
Turn around.
There we go.
You’ll look gorgeous in this dress.
Forty-two tickets, only one winner.
Who’s feeling lucky today?
-Whose idea was this? How great. -Midnight raffle!
One ticket per person. Don’t be greedy.
You look beautiful.
Forty-two tickets, only one winner.
May I?
You want one?
No.
-Me, please! -Midnight raffle!
The train leaves at seven.
Shall we?
-Good evening. -Good evening.
Thanks.
Cheers.
What is it?
There was a raid on a party on La Paz Street.
At first, it seemed normal, but then I realized there were only men.
Get to the point, Félix.
Those who seemed to be women were men in dresses.
We arrested 42, sir.
I only see 41.
My son will find out.
I’m going to die.
My son will find out, and I’m going to die.
Get this faggot out of here.
-Pigs! -Get out of here, sickos!
Those here are an example of the putrefaction
that must be eradicated from our society.
May the lesson of these sick men serve as an example
for all those who seek to go against the principles of morality.
Let it be clear.
Rotten weeds will be uprooted without any hesitation.
For the good of our society and the safety of our families.
I asked my dad to let you stay at home.
Did you tell your dad about Evaristo?
What for?
God sees all.
Amada, please.
If you help me get Evaristo out of jail, I promise--
He was sent to Yucatán.
At least he can atone for his sins.
Mr. Congressman.
The president wants to know if he can count on your vote on the floor.
Tell him he can.
La bohème is opening at Teatro Principal.
Can we go?
If you want.
Or would you rather go to Tacubaya for the weekend?
Ignacio.
Sorry, what?
Would you rather go to the opera or the summerhouse?
I don’t care.
Evaristo died.
I don’t know anything else. I just know he died.
So, La bohème or Tacubaya?
