00:02:15 Arturo, do you want to meet tonight? By the old hacienda.
00:06:53 I love to hear about it. Good, cause we hear about it often.
00:10:11 I understand that, but it can't continue like this anymore.
00:13:41 Run!
00:24:16 Rosa.
00:27:16 They will hunt you down and get you.
00:30:39 they're going to kill you.
00:33:54 I'm so afraid, Enrique. And money to cross the border?
00:37:39 Rosa, where are you going? Where are you heading?
00:41:56 Hey, idiot. Move your ass. That's the reason.
00:47:17 Come on. Get away! Leave them alone. Come on!
00:49:47 I'll see you later. I'll see you tonight.
00:54:51 Oaxaca, Mexico.
00:58:24 So it seems I have to help you.
01:00:40 I've eaten a fairly large lunch with Raimundo Gutierre.
01:12:47 You have a first class guide.
01:23:48 Look at the ladies. They are looking like they do in magazines.
01:26:55 Nacha, where are all the white people?
01:28:59 What's wrong with that? Nothing, but you look like a clown.
01:40:17 But he wanted more for me.
01:49:52 But mother. It's hard baking on this.
01:56:34 You'll have to take care of yourself here, or you'll be in trouble.
02:07:35 Like that day in San Pedro, when thought you would never come back.
02:09:49 And when we walk in the streets, people will envy us.
