TWORK
I know what you want.
That's what I'm here for, Mr. Armando.
Betty?
Betty? You're dreaming of Betty?
No, it was just a nightmare.
It's unbelievable I have to put up with that woman
in our bed too.
It was just a nightmare, honey.
I'm just really worried about the next board meeting.
Please don't be upset with me.
You have to relax, Armando. You can't let V&M consume you.
Besides, we've already postponed our wedding.
I know, and let's not talk about that anymore.
It's just you and I,
and you're the most important thing in my life.
I don't want you saying that woman's name ever again.
Whose?
That woman's, especially not here... in our bed.
You're the only one here.
Wait.
Wait, wait, you're drinking wine?
No, obviously not. Sorry.
Force of habit.
Have some oysters.
They're from a fantastic restaurant
and come highly recommended.
No, no, no!
What's the matter with you?
Sorry, but you can't eat that.
Why not?
Pregnant women shouldn't eat oysters.
I read on the Internet it's really dangerous for the baby.
Oh.
Aw!
You're taking care of me.
Well, taking care of us.
Know what else is great for pregnant women
besides being cared for?
Sex.
It stimulates the child's motor functions
and strengthens the cardiovascular system.
I can't.
I don't know what's wrong with me, but I...
I just can't.
You can't?
It's not you, it's me.
Obviously!
I'd better go.
I also read that sleep is essential for pregnant women.
So good night and get some rest.
I know my way out.
No...
What am I going to do now?
I have to get pregnant somehow.
Damn worthless oysters.
How did my chilaquiles turn out?
Very tasty.
Sweetie, what are your boss' plans for BAR?
Because that company's profit margins are exceptional.
I'm not that well informed on that
because I manage that with Nico.
Why don't you two have a real office?
Something befitting BAR.
That company's mail is even arriving here.
Because it's not necessary yet.
It's... to lower costs.
That Mr. Armando sure is cheap.
He's pocketing the money
and getting a free office out of us.
Why would you want an office?
If Mr. Armando authorizes it,
you'd have to go to Manhattan every day and leave Mom alone.
That's true.
Know what? I'm running late.
See you tonight. Love you.
Take care of yourself.
Men with big hands are better.
They hold you tightly and know how to spin you around.
I love when...
Bertha, what happened to you?
I had an accident while investigating in the field.
Don't worry, though. It was worth it.
I've got some gossip for which we'll have to interrupt
our regularly scheduled programming.
I'm glad you're all together. I brought you a surprise.
Donuts!
I can't eat any sugar. The doctor forbid it.
I don't want any, thanks.
I already had breakfast.
Sofi, I'm on a diet. Excuse me.
Oh, dear, they might reject this, but I won't.
Excuse me.
Wait, wait.
Nobody's being nice.
They're all mad at me.
Well, you'll have to try harder to get them to forgive you.
You really messed up.
Look at it.
Well, well. We'd better get out of here.
All of a sudden I'm getting negative vibes.
Retreat. Retreat.
Mr. Armando.
Hi.
Need something?
Yes, Betty.
Did you get the lawyer like I asked?
I think so, but there's just one problem.
He's not from Manhattan but from Jackson Heights.
He's also not part of any prestigious firm.
No, even better if he's not well known.
Well, he's not unknown like me,
but he's not super famous either like Lady Gaga.
Is he discreet?
He seems like a good lawyer,
but the best part is he's cheap.
We really don't have time to find another.
If you trust him, so do I.
Tell that lawyer to begin the seizure process
because I think we're very close to doing it.
What's wrong?
Still thinking about the company Betty's running?
There's something strange going on.
Those kids are managing millions,
and they don't have to answer to anyone.
They're even allowed to invest at their discretion.
What's so bad about that?
Look, Betty and Nicolas are kids.
They're young and they don't have experience.
Don't freak out. They went to school.
They're better equipped for that than you and me both.
Oh Julia, they might know a lot,
but all those wolves in Manhattan worry me.
Sometimes I fear...
someone wanting to take advantage of Betty.
Like her boss?
I don't know, but I believe a father's role
is to protect his children regardless of their age.
Right?
Ready for the gossip of the year?
Patricia Fernandez is not pregnant.
What?
That's a serious accusation.
-Do you have proof? -Yeah, do you?
No, but I'm getting it,
but that kind of intelligence work isn't easy.
My boss, Ricardo, is the father of that child.
Yes, and Mrs. Marcela is quite convinced of that pregnancy.
How can you be sure about all the things you've said?
She's not taking care of herself.
I'm certain she was drinking,
and what she had yesterday was a killer hangover.
I caught her about to take some painkillers
forbidden for pregnant women.
What's more, yesterday she was -listen to this- kickboxing.
-No way! -Are you sure?
Hold on, Bertha.
Where are you getting all this information?
How do you know that?
Because yesterday I followed her.
Be careful you don't get in trouble.
Yeah!
Like someone else around here that I know.
At my 3 o'clock.
Who's that?
What's over there? You lose something?
What are you looking at?
Yes, I know, my outfit is amazing.
It's new, and never in your lives can any of you afford it.
Is that so?
What if I said...?
Why don't you have some more delicious donut?
You are so weird.
And you're so worm.
Whatever, keep eating your donut.
Marianita, my best friend, can you make me
one of those delicious teas of yours?
Of course... not.
I'm obviously very busy. Excuse me.
She's not your servant.
I get it now.
What do you get?
Talk about a lack of solidarity in this office
for a pregnant woman.
Unbelievable. That's fine, though.
When any of you need a helping hand,
we'll see who gives it to you.
I'll lend you a helping hand.
A donut with your coffee?
Jordan, why won't you answer? Where are you?
Please respond.
Will you help me with the money?
Oh, Patri, if you only knew that I was closer
than you thought and had less money than you think.
Lord, what can I do to stay in contact with Patri
and not have her dump me?
I brought you milk and cookies.
Thank you, ma'am.
Hey, do you know where Demetrio went?
He went out a while ago without telling me where.
No, I don't know. Did you call him?
Yes, but he's not answering.
No kidding?
Nicolas, is everything okay with BAR?
Of course!
I'm generating lots of money for BAR.
I think I know where Demetrio went.
He's so stubborn, and I know him so well.
At last you pick up!
I have something urgent to tell you.
What happened? Are you okay?
I'm fine. You? I'm not so sure.
I think your father went to V&M to speak to your boss.
Oh, no. To Mr. Armando? Mom, why'd you let him leave?
You think I can stop him?
You know what he's like when he gets an idea in his head.
Besides, I'm not completely certain that's where he went.
It's just a gut feeling.
Oh!
Your gut feeling is probably wrong.
Don't worry about it. I'll call you later.
President's office.
Betty, girl, your dad is here.
