The Boss (El encargado)

I heard a new character moved into your building.

IN THE PREVIOUS SEASON

The cost of maintenance fees surprises me. Where's all the money going?

He says that having an owners' association president...

- With some discretion... -...encourages corruption.

I think you and I, Doctor,

have a common problem.

-Hi. - Hi.

Good morning.

Don't you have a charity foundation?

The Ayudando Foundation.

I've never liked people whose work is being a good person.

They're the worst.

Hey, man! Who do you think you are?

Dear Uncle, I finally found you.

I want to offer you a job.

What time is it?

-Phew! -

Fuck me!

Beba, it's me.

Beba!

- Beba left me everything? -Everything.

At the next owners' association meeting,

vote for me to be on the owners' council. Are we clear?

Is anyone else interested in running for the position?

I think there's the perfect guy. Matías Zambrano.

-What do you need? - To inspect your apartment.

Get in, please.

The owners' association considers you might have

an illness that may be dangerous for everyone.

- -

A Valencian paella.

Too many peas for my taste.

We conclude that the patient

does not show any signs compatible with a psychopathological disorder.

Dr. Zambrano

not only blackmailed the providers to inflate the budgets,

but he threatened me too.

-Why are you here? - To tell the truth.

To say you're obsessed with Eliseo.

Can we talk outside?

Get the maid to comfort you, asshole.

I'm sad you're leaving, Doctor.

-Go fuck yourself. -You're angry.

I know perfectly well you're a dark and dangerous guy.

You don't fuck with Eliseo, motherfuckers.

It's all good! It was just a joke.

Have fun, watch, comment.

I'll take care of living.

ARGENTINA'S SUPERINTENDENTS' UNION

MR. ELISEO OMAR BASURTO

Comrade Eliseo, good morning.

Hello. How can I help you?

Your day has come, Eliseo.

We have something for you.

An official notification from the union.

What's this?

-Open it and take a look. -No, I'll read it later.

Go ahead, read it now.

INVITATION

"Dear Mr. Basurto.

"We are pleased to cordially invite you to participate as a speaker

"in the 7th Inter-American Convention of Horizontal Property Superintendents

"organized by... blah, blah, blah.

"The convention will be held...

"in Rio de Janeiro."

-Okay, perfect. -Are you going?

It's all expenses paid.

I don't know. I have lots to do.

I have to go back to work. Anything else?

No, that's all.

-All right. Thank you. Goodbye. -Okay.

And don't ever park the car in the driveway again,

-or the owners won't be able to exit. -Okay.

Thank you.

What's that letter?

It's an invitation I just got.

A superintendents' convention?

I can see that the older you get, the dumber you become.

Don't tell me you've joined a union.

No, Bebita.

You know I'm against all those groups that claim to represent people's rights.

There's no one better to represent you than yourself, Beba.

You could use a vacation after 30 years of scheming and plotting,

you dirty rat.

You're wild today, Beba. Yes, very aggressive.

I still miss you, though.

Son of a bitch.

What you miss is that shitty ricotta cake I used to make you.

Why don't you use the trip as an opportunity

to shave that military officer's moustache?

You look like Videla.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Maybe. Yes.

Yeah, that I could do.

THE BOSS 3

So, is this supposed to be nice?

No, I don't like it.

Relax, it's only a few days, Eliseo.

At least try to enjoy it.

God damn it.

-Yes. Room number, please. -Yes.

Dois, oito.

Yes, how can I help?

Yes, eu don't want anyone to come into my room,

not even the maids.

I propose that you provide me with basic cleaning products,

and eu will take care of everything. Tá bom?

I'm very sorry, sir,

but due to our hotel policy, I can't satisfy your request.

But I assure you that our cleaning staff is very thorough.

You and I must have a different idea of the meaning of the word "thorough".

You offered me a 30-square-meter room.

And, according to my measurements,

the room is 27 square meters.

-Sorry, Mr. Basurto. -Basurto, yes.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I believe those are rough estimates.

What we can do to compensate you for the misunderstanding

is to give you a one-hour kayaking trip and a Zumba class for free. Is that okay?

No, I think it's muito bad. There's no misunderstanding.

Thirty square meters is 30 square meters, here and anywhere in do mundo.

Do you understand when eu fala?

-Yes, I understand. -Okay.

Ah.

You left the Holy Bible on my bedside table.

-Yes. -I don't want it. I don't need it.

Got it?

I apologize.

Eliseo.

My friend.

Garrido, what's up?

Here I am, supporting this very good initiative.

I didn't know there were others here.

I'm not the only one.

Look.

Aren't you hungry?

Yes, I am.

But I don't have that voracity you guys have.

Not even a python eats that much. What are you mixing in there?

Pork, feijoada, couscous,

Roquefort, some other cheese, some ham slices,

and alligator picadinho.

I have feijoada, chicken, spaghetti...

Don't know what this is, but it looks good.

Tomatoes, Roquefort, ham, a bit of everything.

"A bit of everything." Frankly, that's obscene.

That's why we came, to treat ourselves.

That's not a treat, it's disgusting. You're ravenous lions.

Don't listen to him. Did you see his beard?

Eliseo is having an existential crisis. He's talking shit.

Finish eating and go screw yourself, Gómez.

"To whom it may concern.

"I've decided to clean my own room,

"so vocês understand the standard I expect to find.

"I invite you to imitate it. Cumprimentos, Eliseo Omar Basurto."

The water is beautiful.

You know, I understand, Gómez,

that at your age, you look in the mirror and say,

"If I have to see this every day of my life,

"I might as well let others see it too", just because you're so bitter.

But it's very unsightly, Gómez. Cover up, please. Don't be such a bumpkin.

Don't look at me if you don't like it.

I have to keep my chestnut tan.

Dear God. To top it all off, there are no sewers here.

Where do you think all the shit goes?

Into this sea you love so much.

You're the life of the party on vacation, aren't you?

You're the very image of happiness, Eliseo.

Do you think I need to flee my home and go to a beach to have fun?

No, sir.

I just need to be with myself, that's all.

I'm not like those poor devils

who wait for a whole year to have 10 days of vacation

and then they spend the remaining 355 days feeling like shit.

I spend my vacation right here, Gómez.

- -Where are you going?
