[water bubbling, splashing]
[eerie music playing]
[father, muffled] Ready? You have to do it on your own, okay?
- Don't panic. Focus, Julia. Come on. - [Julia] No, I don't want to! No! No!
[father grunts]
[Julia screams]
SWIM TO ME
[father] Let's go again.
Come on. You can do it. Swim to me.
Very good. Keep your legs straight. Kick harder. Come on.
Quicker. Use your legs. There you go. Yep.
Straighten your legs.
- Kick harder. - [Julia grunts]
[father] Give me your hand.
- Okay. Come here. Let's go. - [Julia panting]
[coughs]
[father] Good. Let's do it again.
- Last time. You ready? - [Julia] No.
- Mm-mmm. - Don't worry. I learned the same way.
[Julia panting]
- [father] Give me your hand. Come here. - [Julia breathing heavily]
[father] See? It's okay.
[mother] Come on, Cristóbal. She needs a break.
[maid] Let's go?
[water bubbling]
["Ramo de Flores" by Álvaro Scaramelli playing]
[singer singing in Spanish]
[music continues on headphones]
[maid humming along]
[lighter clicking]
[mother] Estela.
Estela!
Estela, are you there?
[music stops]
[Estela] She's not trapped. She's holding on.
Julia, this isn't amusing.
[Estela] Julia.
Okay, I've had enough. Yeah.
Not funny. Let's go.
Let's go. Ow! You hurt me.
Okay. Yeah.
Yeah. I have work to do.
And I'm exhausted. Estela can braid your hair.
[Cristóbal] Hello?
Yeah. Connect me to Pediatrics on the fourth floor, please.
Yes. The patient is seven years old. She has scoliosis.
I was told she has a slight fever.
Okay. Let's request a consult from Infectious Diseases. Thanks.
[Estela] Come with me. We'll clean you up with cotton swabs.
You don't want cotton swabs?
Then no complaining.
[piano music playing]
- [mother] That's all getting thrown away. - [Estela] Okay.
- [mother] All of that. And that box. - [Estela] Okay.
[mother] He hasn't thrown away his mother's clothes yet.
Hey, look.
Look what I found. The swim cap.
[Julia groans]
[mother] I promise I'll buy you a new one, my love.
Julia. Sweetheart. Look at me.
I wanted to go with you, but I'm too busy. Got it?
But Estela's gonna be with you.
[Julia] But it's vacation. Can I start another day?
No. There is only one spot left, and I had to act quickly and take it.
- Try it on her, okay? - [Estela] Mm-hmm.
[mother] Sweetie, look at me.
In Caburgua, you and I will practice together.
But how long until we go?
[mother] Have you been outside today?
Have fun. Learn something new.
Don't stay cooped up all day in the house with Estela.
Can I sit down now?
No.
- [employee] Have a nice day. - [visitor] Bye.
[turnstile beeps]
[employee] Yes?
Well, I'm with her.
[employee] With her?
Hmm.
[children crying]
[instructor 1] Okay, class. Ready to swim?
We blow out...
And when our friend goes like... I mean... closes his eyes,
we dip them in and lift them out. Ready?
Here we go.
Very good. Just like that. Very good.
- [child cries] - [Julia] It hurts.
Stop that.
[Estela] Listen. This pool is filled with lice.
Who's getting them out of your hair later? Me? No way.
It hurts less if you tug it down from behind.
[instructor 2] Vicente.
[Estela] Hold on.
[instructor 2] Faster now. Okay, everyone. Let's watch Miss Natalia.
Okay? Everyone.
All of you need to watch. And no running. Okay? Slowly.
Moms and dads, you can wait in the cafeteria.
We have a real nice breakfast there.
- [Estela] Good. Okay, go. Go. - [instructor 2] You ready, Julia?
Take your time. When you're ready. At your own pace.
[Estela] You can do it.
[instructor 1] Okay, who's ready? On my count. One, two, three.
[instructor 2] Who's ready to swim?
Now you, Julia. It's your turn. Ready to go in?
You can do it. It's easy.
Okay. The rest of you, get in, please. Let's go, friends.
What's wrong?
Don't you wanna get in? It's okay. We can jump in together.
Don't you wanna swim with everybody?
It's really easy. And it's how you learn, right? Come on.
Should we jump in together? On the count of three. One, two, three.
[emotional music playing]
[instructor 3] Oh, excuse me. You can't come in here.
No, you can't just... But, ma'am?
[instructor 2] Let's give it a try, okay?
[instructor 1] Okay, that's really good. Kick with the legs.
Yes. I like it.
Very nice. Very nice. Again.
[Estela] Julia, are you okay? You wanna leave?
Should we go? Let's go.
Uh, ma'am?
She can't leave until the end of class.
[instructor 1] Let's try it again.
What's the purpose of swim lessons?
That was a waste of time.
Now you'll have to come with me on my errand.
- [phone clicks] - [scoffs]
What am I gonna tell your father?
But I don't wanna learn.
[Estela] Hmm.
You have to learn how to swim. All kids can swim, you know.
Did they make you learn it too?
Who made you learn?
[clicks tongue] All this drama for nothing. [groans]
I'll have to teach you, then. One more thing to do.
What about ice cream?
You didn't even get one foot wet.
Let's go.
Stay right here, okay?
SOLUTIONS CENTER
- Hello. - [cashier] Good afternoon.
[Estela] It's for María Rosa Torres.
[cashier] Got it.
The funds will be available at the Castro branch by tomorrow.
They will need to give the number on that ticket.
[Estela] Thanks.
- [cashier] Excuse me, miss? - [Estela] Yeah?
[cashier] Your ticket.
- Next. - [client] Good afternoon.
[cashier] Hello. Good afternoon.
[siren wailing in distance]
[Estela] Julia!
What did I say about wandering off?
Let's go. Let's move.
Julia. Come on.
[kiddie ride melody playing]
[dolphin squeaking on speakers]
[kiddie ride creaking]
[Estela] Last ride.
It's time.
I'll buy you something. Only one, though.
It has to be useful.
Put that down. I said you can get one thing.
["Jingle Bells" playing on speakers]
- [Estela] Let's go. - [Julia] Light blue for me, pink for you.
- [Estela] I don't like pink. - Me neither.
[eerie music playing]
[mother] The first class is always like that.
[music fades]
- It's always hard doing something new. - It's horrible.
But you gotta learn at some point.
[sighs]
Tell me, Estela. I'm not clear on what happened.
The water. It was almost freezing.
The pool instructor had too many kids to watch.
- [mother] Mmm. - Could've been dangerous.
[mother] That club has been going downhill for a while now.
They swore there would only be five kids in a class.
[Julia] There were way more. I'm thinking 43 or so.
You'll be able to swim... at the lake, love.
[kids' music playing]
[narrator] Once they're confident enough to get in the water,
the idea is to keep it shallow so they can still touch the bottom.
In this case, you can use support platforms.
The best way to learn to swim begins with dipping your head underwater
and exhaling through your nose or mouth.
[rustling]
[Estela] You're on video, Mom. I can only see your hair.
- [Rosa chuckles on phone] - [Estela] Turn the camera around.
[Rosa] Look. Can you see it?
[Estela] I can't eat the vegetables here. They don't taste like anything.
[Rosa] Aren't they beautiful?
[Estela] Aw!
So pretty.
Have prices for tickets gone up yet?
Oh, no. Don't buy tickets during the holidays,
because they're pricier.
Why are you coming for such a short visit?
What's the point?
It's all because Sonia is at the fishery.
She says it's not that bad.
Don't worry at all about it. I'll be fine.
Your cousin gets very little pay there.
- That is, if she even gets any pay at all. - [news music plays on TV]
[Rosa] Then if you get sick, you get fired.
[interviewee] ...other day, and these four guys came in.
Burglars who pretty much, uh, looked like trouble.
A-And they came in quickly, before I could...
- They robbed where I shop. - [TV continues]
You get used to everything eventually.
They'll kill you over a phone. Sneak into houses in the night.
That's how it is.
That's not who we are, Mom.
[horn honks]
[nanny] No running!
[boy] Look. A boat.
[girl] Wow! That's cool!
[nanny] Hey, kids! We need to go back home!
- Hello, Estela. - [Cristóbal] Estela, can you help me?
Yes. Of course.
[Cristóbal] Where did these pirates come from?
Why does he always get to go first?
Easy. Take it easy, now.
[Cristóbal] This is where we'll be, Estela. Look. Two weeks at Lake Caburgua.
[boy] It's like a bus.
- [girl] It's nothing like a bus. - [Cristóbal] Like it, kids?
[girl shouts]
[nanny grunts] Here we go.
[grunts]
[water splashes]
[Estela] One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven, eight.
[Julia gasping]
[Estela] Okay. Rest.
[Julia sighs]
I'm getting better, I think.
- A little bit. - I'm better than that.
Keep trying.
[Julia] I did it five times... ten seconds...
Uh, five... No, wait. Ten times five...
- [Estela] Mm-hmm. - [Julia] Um...
Twelve times, uh, thirteen...
- Twelve, uh... Thirteen hours. - [Estela] Yes.
Plus, it's... it's getting longer each time now.
["Ay Amor" by Myriam Hernandez playing on radio]
[singer singing in Spanish]
[Estela singing along in Spanish]
Okay. We have to heat this up for a while.
Once it gets warm, you'll feel much better.
[music continues]
Feel anything?
[Julia] Uh, yeah.
ENTRANCE
["Tu Cárcel" by Enanitos Verdes playing on radio]
[singer singing in Spanish]
Smile. You're not being filmed.
[Estela chuckles lightly]
- Are you new here? - No, I'm 40.
Not so new, not so promising.
[Estela chuckles lightly]
I'm kidding. [chuckles] Um, I just began last week.
Ah.
The red ones, please.
[barks]
- [Estela chuckles] - He doesn't like when people smoke.
[Estela] He thinks he's a doctor.
[cash register closes]
- You work around here? - [Estela] Mm-hmm.
- I do as well. [chuckles] - [Estela] Mmm.
Mmm. No, I guess if you come back, maybe we'll see each other again.
Nice to meet you. I'm here all week.
[dogs barking in distance]
[Estela] Shoo. Go back.
[dog barking]
[barking continues]
[dog sniffing]
[munching]
[Estela] Slow down there. Chew.
Enjoy it. Don't wolf it down.
Take your time, you stupid little dog.
[dog barking]
You stay quiet, though.
Go. Now.
[barking continues]
[Estela clapping hands] Now, shoo. Go on!
[mother groans] Estela, I'm exhausted. If I could, I'd even miss the opening.
[Cristóbal sighs] Mara, it's your friend's event.
You told me to hurry.
It's 7:30, and it takes 47 minutes to get there,
and then I have to find parking.
Julia, please stand up. You have feet. Stop crawling.
- So, no TV if she doesn't eat. - Okay.
[phone ringing]
[Mara] Curator?
Or artist?
- That one. - [Mara] Okay.
[melancholy piano music playing]
[Estela] Julia.
Julia.
[birds chirping]
[music continues]
[crickets chirping]
[dogs barking in distance]
[music ends]
[Julia] Even if I move, she keeps staring at me.
There. Aha. That's much better. Upside down. She can't see you.
Okay. It's time to sleep.
[objects rattling]
[toy melody plays]
- [rattling continues] - [mice squeaking]
[Estela] Okay. Time to rest. Go to sleep. Night night.
[phone camera clicks]
[Estela clicks tongue, sighs]
[phone camera clicks]
[phone ringing, buzzing]
[Estela sighs]
No, I can't speak now, Sonia. I'm too busy.
It's about your mom.
What happened?
I don't really know what happened, but... I mean, I couldn't talk to her.
- She broke a bone. - So, where is she?
And they sat her down. They shouldn't have done that.
And what, um... [stammers]
- Did you speak with her? Who saw her? - I didn't. The neighbor did.
- And how does she seem to you? - I don't know. They found her...
- Yeah, but were you there? - I wasn't there.
Did you check where? What did she break?
She grabbed a branch, and the branch broke.
She fell off her chair and broke her... her hip.
She's in a hospital. She's having surgery.
Can you be with her until I get there?
[Sonia] Yes, I can stay with her. No worries. Until you get here, of course.
Yes, I'll have a talk with, uh, them, and I'll see what I can do.
[Sonia] Fine.
- ["Fe" by Jorge González playing on TV] - [Estela singing along in Spanish]
[singer singing in Spanish]
[toy melody plays]
[toy] Can we play together? Can we play together?
Is smoking any fun?
Why are you here?
No, no, no. Go back to bed.
Kids are banned from my apartment.
And your parents don't like you coming here.
But I'm scared. Those things on the roof are still there.
Do you mean the stars?
Seriously?
[Estela sighs] It's the mice.
Hmm.
Can't even smoke in peace here.
[narrator on TV] Why are they called the antlers instead of horns?
- Because they continually... - Close your eyes, now.
[narrator] Fawns are born without any. It takes...
Only owls can stay up late.
[narrator] In the meantime, the parents protect the young from predators.
Also, their spots allow the newborn
to camouflage incredibly well in their natural environment.
But those spots only last for about three months.
- By the time they're about... - When I was your age, I slept very well.
- [narrator] Outside of their natural... - I couldn't be moved.
...and Argentina, they're not found anywhere else in the world.
Just like the puma, the condor...
Me and my siblings shared a bed with my mom.
...so interspecies often band together to become true...
[Estela] Today my mom had a fall, and she was all alone.
[narrator] And then, a multitude of changes came to their ecosystem.
- About five years ago... - That's how she is.
[narrator] Today, people are more aware that the natural habitats must be left as...
You never know.
[narrator] Hunting them for food quickly depletes their stock
and alters the food chain.
She says that I shouldn't visit,
but she wants me there.
["Cuando Estoy Contigo" by Armando Manzanero playing]
[singer singing in Spanish]
[music continues]
[music fades]
[Estela] Hey, you.
Hey.
Hey! Hey!
- [shower running] - [person whistling a tune]
[whistling continues]
[thud]
Are you much older than my mom?
[Estela] We're about the same age.
Will you both die at the same age?
My grandma died first.
Nana.
After that, up next will be my... father,
and then my mother, after that, you,
then it's Julia.
No.
The girls who annoy everyone live a full life.
Only the good pass away young.
[crickets chirping]
[Mara] Just a minute.
[excercise machine whirring]
[Mara] Cristóbal.
[Cristóbal] What?
[Mara] Hey. Estela needs to talk to us.
[Cristóbal] Huh? What about?
[Mara] Apparently, she wants to visit her mother.
- [Cristóbal] So your mother had a fall. - Yes.
- [Cristóbal] Hmm. - [Mara] Will you have to go see her?
Yes. She's having surgery tomorrow. She's getting a hip prosthesis, so, uh...
[Cristóbal] Well, good thing that hip surgery
is a routine procedure these days.
There are rarely complications. So, you know...
Also, I'm busy, Cristóbal. I need to lock myself in the workshop.
I have to wrap a ton of orders. I have a large delivery on Monday.
[Cristóbal sighs] Yes, yes, yes.
How about we fly you out when we're past the weekend?
Monday or Tuesday. That might work better.
[Cristóbal] Yes.
Uh, it's better to arrive after the operation.
[Mara] Mm-hmm. Good point.
[Cristóbal] You can be there for her recovery and rehab.
Because, um...
[muffled] If you go now, they probably won't let you see her anyway.
You see...
[haunting music playing]
[Estela sighs]
[music fades]
Don't touch my drawer.
They're performing the surgery right now.
[phone chimes, buzzes]
[phone clicks]
[Estela tapping]
- [ding] - [Sonia] Hi, Estela.
She woke up from the anesthesia.
She's a little depressed, but they say that's normal.
- [ding] - [Estela sighs]
Um... Are you okay?
[Estela] Mm-hmm.
["Hoy Tengo Ganas de Ti" by Miguel Gallardo playing on TV]
I WANT TO DRINK FROM YOUR LIPS TO QUENCH MY SOUL'S THIRST
- [music continues] - [singer singing in Spanish]
What's this?
A little trinket that brings luck. For protection.
Protection?
A charm to keep you from falling in love.
But why stop falling in love?
Because love can be hard.
I like it. Can I have it, though?
No. It's mine.
[Julia clicking mouth]
[doorbell rings]
Can you go open the door for them, huh? I'm not in the mood.
[boy] No! Don't touch it.
No! No!
- Go away! - [Estela] Stop it. I mean it. Stop.
No, no, no.
Give me another.
[Julia whispers] I want them to leave.
[girl] I heard you.
[knocking on door]
Julia. Don't be like this. You need to come out.
[door lock rattling, clicks]
[Estela sighs]
Are you gonna go see your mommy?
Who's gonna take care of you?
Let's go.
[Rosa on phone] Your brother called me this morning.
[Estela] Wait. He showed up?
[Rosa sighs] Don't start now. You're both the same.
[Estela] No, Mom. I didn't disappear. I came here to work.
I'll be there once Sonia can't take time off work anymore.
That way we're not both bothering you.
[Rosa] I already told you. I'm doing fine. Save those days for your vacation.
[both chattering, laughing, muffled]
[Estela] Okay, Mom.
I'll talk to you tomorrow. Kisses. Bye.

[worker clicking mouth]
Oh, yeah?
- Look what you get, you lucky dog. Huh? - [Estela] Mmm! Mmm.
- Here. For you. - He asks about you every day.
But we haven't figured out your name yet.
Estela.
Carlos. A pleasure.
[Estela] Ah...
Does he go to your place too?
Yes, but it's not my house.
- He begs a lot, doesn't he? - [chuckles]
He lives anywhere he wants.
[dogs barking]
- Where's your hometown? - Chiloé.
[Carlos] Oh, Chiloé?
What's it like there?
Uh, more trees than anything.
[Carlos chuckles]
Oak. Maple. Ulmo. Myrtle.
Laurel.
- [Carlos] Uh-huh? - And where do you live?
Round here. I house-sit for a friend nearby.
For a few months.
Hey!
- Give me a second. - Okay.
This way.
[Estela] When I first arrived in Santiago, I thought the air smelled like dust.
It was so very hot, and there were only two colors. Brown and yellow.
Brown mountains, yellow trees. Yellow buildings, brown town squares.
[Carlos chuckles]
[lighter clicking]
Hey, what are you doing? No, no, no, no. If they catch you smoking, I'll get fired.
They can't fire you. Where are they gonna get a replacement this time of the year?
[lighter clicks]
"Oh. Hey, boss."
"Am I working on the Day of the Dead?"
Ugh. Really?
[Carlos chuckles]
"So you happen to be dead? No? And then what?"
"Come on. Get back to work."
[chuckles]
Funny.
[eerie music playing]
- I'm the maid. - [Estela] Take that off.
- [Julia screams] - Take that off right now.
- I mean it. Take those off. - [Julia screaming]
[Estela] Right now!
[screaming continues]
[Estela] Hey. Julia. Listen to me.
[music continues]
One, two, three, and down. One, two, three, and up.
One, two, three, and down. One, two, three, and now up.
One, two, three, and down.
Yes. Puff like a pigeon.
But pigeons aren't swimmers.
I've been here for like an hour. Is it time for me to take a break?
[Estela] Mom, you are so stubborn. You're already up and walking around.
[Rosa on phone] Oh, don't worry. I'll lie down soon.
I was just feeding the cat.
- [Estela] Merry Christmas, Mom. - [Rosa] You doing anything tonight?
[Mara] Estela.
Mom... I've gotta go now. I'll call back later, okay?
- [Rosa] Bye, sweetie. - [washing machine whirring]
[doorbell rings]
[Estela] Yes? Good evening. Is everything okay?
Good evening, ma'am. Were you the one who saw someone prowling around?
Did you call us?
[Estela] No. And I wouldn't even know which number to call. Everyone is asleep.
Call 1818.
[Estela] 1818. Thank you.
- [dogs barking] - Let's check the front gate.

- [Cristóbal] What is it? - [Estela] Look! It's so pretty!
- [Mara] Oh! Hello! - [Cristóbal] It's a parrot. Look.
- It does something. What is it? - Look. What's that?
- What is it? - Look, my love.
- [Cristóbal] There. Let's see. Look. - Jingle bell!

[toy] You're a bad singer.
- [all laugh] - [Mara] Julia!
- [Julia] Say something. - [toy] Hello! Hello!
Julia is pretty.
[toy] Julia is pretty.
[all laugh]
You like it?
- Oh, right. Estela... - [toy laughs]
[Mara] Don't forget Estela's present.
- Ah, no! You shouldn't... - [Cristóbal] "For Estela."
- [Mara] What could it be? What is it? - Thank you so much. Thank you.
- [Mara chanting] Time to open! - [Estela] Let's see. Oh!
- [Julia] Oh! - [Mara] Oh!
[Estela] Oh, look! It's a towel! So gorgeous.
There's a gift receipt there. In case it doesn't fit.
- [Estela] Oh! And a bathing suit. - Or you wanna exchange it.
It's perfect for Caburgua.
- It's such a lovely color. - [Julia] I love it.
But there's no way I'm getting in the water. Even if you tied me up.
[Cristóbal] I'm heading out so I don't get stuck in traffic. Okay?
- [Mara] Mm-hmm. Mmm. - [Cristóbal] Yeah?
Estela, go with him. Last time I asked him to bring a cake, it totally fell apart.
- Okay. - [toy] Okay.

Shh, shh.

Okay. First you go right, then a left.

Then I don't know. That way.

[Cristóbal] No! No, no. Please.
- [Mara] Oh, sh-- - Take everything. It's all yours.
Whatever you want!
Cristóbal, it's Estela. Estela! It's Estela! Open up! Open the door!
[Estela] He's gone.
- [Mara] Close the door. - [Estela] Yes, yes.
- Are you okay? - Are we okay now?
He came from the house next door.
- Listen to me. Did you lock the door? - Yes. Everything is locked.
[Mara] Call the police. Now.
Yes, I'm trying. But he cracked my phone, and I can't see anything.
- [Mara] Call security instead. - [Estela] Yes, yes. I'm calling.
- So what do we do now? - It's just that I can't see anything.

- [officer 2] Tell me what's going on? - Yes. Come with me, please.
[police chatter on radio]
[people chattering]
[Estela] Your neighbor...
They tied her up in the bathroom alone.
The husband and the kids were together, but in another part of the house.
[groans] That's awful.
What monster does something like that to a mother?
It's so brutal, Estela.
Or confusion.
That burglar still had a child-like face.
[Mara] You can't feel safe in your own house anymore.
- [sighs] - [dogs barking]
[Mara] I don't know where you found the courage to leave the room.
I mean, you were really brave.
Something could have happened to you. You're very lucky it didn't.
[sighs]
Is there still hot water?
[Estela] Yes. Would you like some tea?
- Yes. Herbal tea is fine. - [Estela] Of course.
[Mara sighs]
- [thunder rumbling] - [Sonia on phone] Hi. You okay?
Fine. I just wanted to talk to her.
[Sonia] You sent me less than what we agreed.
[Estela] I know. I haven't been paid yet.
[Sonia] They know your mom is sick and they still won't give you an advance?
[Estela] How long is your leave?
[Sonia] Ten days. That's all I get.
[Estela] Okay. Okay. I'm trying to sort things out.
[Sonia] And it's not leave. It's my vacation days.
You know I'll pay you for those days.
[rain pattering]
Can you let me know when she's awake tomorrow?
[Sonia] She might sleep in.
She didn't eat. She didn't want anything.
- [dog barks] - [dogs barking in distance]
[dog barks]
[barks]
[whining]
[Estela chuckles]
Yeah?
[dog whines]
So, no barking around here, okay?
Go leave those in the closet over there.
- It's for security. - [Estela] Mm-hmm.
- Julia can't come in here, okay? - [Estela] Mm-hmm.
[Cristóbal] This is about her white blood cell count.
Yes. I-I ordered an MRI,
which shows the localized hematoma on the surgical side,
and there's also an edema around the area.
Which, uh... this is why I suspect it is infected.
She also has been experiencing increased pain,
and, uh, she has a fever.
[Estela] Julia?
- She's not here. - [Estela] Julia.
[wooden wind chimes tinkling]
Did that man frighten you?
No.
He was much more scared.
Imagine. Entering a house where you don't know anyone.
It's night, and it's completely dark. Everyone is scared and screaming.
Someone calls the cops. No.
He was scared, and screaming too.
This house is spooky.
[Estela] Good thing that thief didn't go into your parent's room,
or he would have run into the painting of your grandmother.
- [Julia] My grandma. - [Estela laughs]
[Julia laughs]
Because she'd make this face.
[Estela laughs]
[both laugh]
- My grandma sure scares me. - That thief would have been terrified.
[dog barking]
[Julia] A doggy!
[Estela] Huh!
Come. Come.
What's his name?
His name is Dadú.
[Julia] Is that why you keep your door locked?
Yes. Shh.
He reminds me of a dog that belonged to the Jameses.
From when I was a young girl.
[Dadú panting]
My neighbor had kids who were about my age.
One was named James, and he had a twin brother.
We also called him James so we wouldn't get confused.
And I really liked the Jameses. I kissed them.
- Well, I kissed one. - Ew. You kissed him?
- [Estela] Mm-hmm. Just like this. [kisses] - [Julia] Ew.
And after that, I gave the other James a little kiss. [kisses]
And then both of the Jameses,
they smooched each other like a make-out mirror.
[kisses]
I'm just being silly.
- [Julia laughs] - It was fun.
[Julia] It's my turn to drive.
[Estela] Sure. [grunting]
- [Julia] Where do you want me to take you? - To my house.
Weren't we gonna meet at eight? [chuckles]
Yeah, but it is eight.
Oh! The time changed, didn't it?
It's just that I'm not a big fan of daylight savings.
- I didn't change my clock. - [chuckling]
[Estela] Mmm.
So, I guess it's time to leave. Bye-bye.
- [Carlos kisses] - Okay then!
- What? "Okay then" what? - What was that?
[Carlos chuckles]
[kissing]
[Estela] Mmm. What a lousy first kiss.
Wait, what? What do you mean?
[both grunting]
[Estela moaning]
[Cristóbal] Estela!
- Can you give me a hand? - [Estela] Yes.
- [Cristóbal groans, exhales] - That should do it.
That's all I needed.
Great.
[exhales]
[sighs]
[doorbell rings]
- [electronic music playing on speaker] - [Cristóbal] How did it go, Iván?
Good. I already talked to the security company.
After New Years Eve, they'll install the cameras.
[Cristóbal] Got it.
After then, they'll begin installing the electric fence, you know?
The cameras will cover any vulnerable spots.
- Thank you so much. - [Iván] Of course. My pleasure.
- [Cristóbal] Finally. - [Iván chuckles]
Oh, yeah. Your daughter, uh... Did she finally learn how to swim?
She can swim to the wall, and she knows how to get out.
[Iván] That's great. Before you know it, she'll represent us
in the 100 meters freestyle in the Olympics. [laughing] Big winner!
What did you see when you were on the street?
- [children] Nothing. - "Nothing"? No.
There's always something in the streets.
And that's where the danger is. That's where criminals love to hang out.
[Estela] Okay, okay. Don't traumatize them any more.
Okay, kiddos. Back to the house. Let's go home. Let's go.
[Iván chuckles]
- [Estela] Mmm. - Fantastic. Thanks.
- Oh, Iván. - Yeah?
Um, can you add me to the security group, please?
Sure.
What's your number? Uh... Give it to me.
- [Estela] Four. - Four...
- [Estela] Four, two, two. - Four, two, two...
- [Estela] Nine, two. - Nine, two...
- [Estela] Eight, nine. - Eight, nine.
[Estela] Estela García.
- I'm with the Jensens. - Estela.
[Estela] What do you feel?
[Rosa on phone] A feeling like a chill running down my spine.
[Estela] So what did the doctor say?
[Rosa] Estelita... They know what they're doing.
[Estela] Well, I'm sure you'll feel better tomorrow.
It's all because you just had surgery.
Is the girl with you?
Hi there, Julia!
Hello.
[Rosa chuckling] The dog also watches TV?
Yeah. This man's body was totally on fire.
[Rosa] Estelita! Don't let her watch those things.
She'll have nightmares.
Well, she wants to watch.
She's stubborn, like you.
That's why I worry about you. All alone.
No, I'm not.
- [Rosa] Really? - Mm-hmm.
[Rosa] Don't lie to me.
[Dadú barks]
GATED COMMUNITY
Steady, steady, steady. Put your foot down.
And now we make a wall.
Now, don't move.
Hold it. That's it!
[Estela] I wanna take Dadú with me to Chiloé.
He'd have a great time, bothering the pigs.
Capturing a bunny. [chuckles]
[Julia laughs]
- So, when are you leaving? - [Julia clears throat]
No, it's... It's that it's possible my mother is doing better.
When we talk, sometimes I don't think she is.
It's not really that clear.
[teenager 1] Can we buy some beer?
[Carlos] What did I tell you last time?
Oh, come on, man. Chill.
- [Julia] Dadú! - [Carlos] I already said no.
- Just sell them beer. And then they'll go. - [Julia] Come here! Dadú.
They shouldn't be out and about this late.
- [Julia] Dadú. Good dog. - [Dadú barks]
[Julia] Dadú.
- [teenager 1] Awesome! - [teenager 2] Thank you, boss.
[Estela] A nun once yelled at me,
and with all of my strength, I took a bowl of veggie stew,
and then I threw it in the face of the Mother Superior. Bam.
[both chuckling]
[Julia] How did I do?
So of course, the same afternoon, the nuns sent for my mom.
- [Julia] Do you have a dog? - [teenagers chattering, laughing]
So for the entire ride home, she didn't speak a single word.
[Julia laughs]
And when we got home, she totally exploded laughing.
- She just laughed on, and on, and on. - [car engine starts]
"All of that veggie stew in her face," she said.
She's dying.
[Julia] Oh, no. I didn't know that.
So then my mom had to go back to her job,
and she said, "Estelita, you'll need to be independent."
[car departs]
She left me on my own.
Just thirteen years old. About to turn fourteen.
Alone.
- [Carlos] Evening, sir. - [Julia] Dadú.
- [Carlos] How can I help you? - [Estela] It's late. Time to go.
[motorcycle departs]

If you're finished with it, give it to me.
What do you want it for?
I don't think love is for me at all.
Yeah. Me neither.
Yeah, but why are you shaving your legs then?
Because you never know.
And besides, it's for grown-ups.
[Julia] Do you have a boyfriend?
Who said I had a boyfriend?
[Julia] I want to go with you.
Uncle told me we're going horseback riding today.
[Mara] Bad news. Your uncle won't be able to take you today.
I don't care if he's in the hospital and crazy.
[Mara laughs nervously] And who told you that your uncle is crazy?
Where did you get that from? You're not deaf, that's for sure.
- Come on. Go play with your father. - Let's go see your dad.
[Cristóbal] Estela?
I have to go out.
But today is my day off.
[Cristóbal] I have 18 minutes to get to the hospital.
My patient was just rushed to the OR, and it's critical.
I'll be gone all night. We'll sort it out later, okay?

- Can Julia sleep over today? - [Estela] Uh...
- We got pizza. We can eat it together. - [chuckles]
Yes. We are making pizza today.
Unfortunately, Julia has to stay home today.
Her mom is coming back from a trip.
- But let's do it another day. - [nanny] Sure.
- [girl] No! Today! - Thank you.
We'll arrange it later. For sure.
[nanny] Which day is better for you this week?
[girl] She's lying.

[Cristóbal] Morning.
[dishes clattering]
[Cristóbal] That little girl had complications during her surgery.
Septic, uh, embolism.
Died during the operation.
She died?
[Cristóbal] Uh, we attempted to resuscitate her
for over 30 minutes after the surgery.
But she didn't make it.
[Estela] I'm sure you did everything you could.
Um... I need to sleep now.
Tell Julia not to wake me, please. Okay?
Of course.
[Julia] I want him to come back.
It wasn't his fault. The mouse was the reason.
We won't talk about it again.
[Julia] But I want him to come back.
There's no more dog. Listen to me. It never existed.
Come here.
- You wanna watch TV? - I don't want to watch TV.
How about my trinket?
[Julia] That's for grown-ups, not for me.

[Julia] Mom?
[Mara] I'm home.
Where is my sweet girl? Where is she?
- [gasps] Hello, my love. - [Julia laughs]
I brought you something.
Still in one piece. It's from your grandmother.
[kisses]
Wait a second. Are you wearing perfume?
[Cristóbal] Hey.
- Hello. - Hello.
- [Mara] Were you still asleep? - Yes.
Did you take my alprazolam?
- Just two. But I'm feeling much better. - Good for you.
How did everything go with you two?
[Mara] Pretty good. We had breakfast together at 7:00 a.m.
Just like when we were kids before school started.
- [Cristóbal] Mmm. - [chuckles]
[computer mouse clicking]
Prefer aisle or window?
Lower level. And away from the bathroom.
And done.
I'm very grateful.
With this small a screen, I wasn't able to select "next."
You slept here?
[Carlos] Mm-hmm.
The owner of the house came home. So while he's back...
It's just for a little while. They lent me a little room here.

Have you seen Dadú?
Not yet. But he'll be back.

Thank you.

Yeah. Write this down.
So, above, we have three lines. And one below. Twelve thousand volts.
- How many volts? - Twelve thousand per line.
- Twelve thousand? - Yep.
- No one is getting through that. - Oh yeah.
- [Cristóbal] As long as it's done right. - It'll be good. Really good.
[inhales sharply] But it hurts.
[Estela] I know. But that means it's healing.
You'll be up and running at the lake.
[Julia] What do you choose?
A cruise... with phantoms and spirits, and you're the only one left,
or the beach with your favorite person,
except you both are surrounded by enormous evil killer sharks.
You know, I'd rather be with you. At the lake.
First, I will visit my mom, but when I'm back, I'll be with you.
I already have my ticket.
Deal?
[sighs]
I'm looking forward to getting tons of rest.
We'll get so overloaded on sleeping.
We'll just float on the boat until it's very late.

I know. You understand.
What was the name of the one who worked for you?
Oh, she's the sister of the one who works for you. She subbed in once. Remember?
She was nice. Very quiet.
Her. Yeah, that's her.
- [Julia] Wait. Estela isn't coming? - No. She's not, love.
- But she told me she was. - She's not coming, love.
She doesn't want to, so we're gonna give her some space.

- How do you know this dog? - Because he bit me. Right here.
- That dog bit you? - Yes.
