Mozart in the Jungle

Mr. Pembridge?

Mr. Pembridge? Mr. Pembridge?

I'm just a little delicate.

- How was your flight? - Oh, which part,

sitting on the tarmac in New York for three hours

or spending the night on a marble floor in Houston?

Morning, darling.

Did you sleep well?

Like a princess.

Mm, that's not what it sounded like.

Why, was I snoring?

- Mm, yeah, just like a little squirrel I had when I was child.

It was like-- - Oh, no. Come on, stop.

Oh, it's so embarrassing.

No, don't be. Mm-mm, you're adorable.

You're just-- You are adorable.

- Hmm, and you are a wonderfully unexpected surprise,

but you probably should get going before somebody sees you.

- Well, if I'm such wonderful surprise, why should I sneak

out of your room like a peasant leaving his master's dacha?

That's ridiculous.

There's a--oh, God, oh, hide.

Hide under the bed.

- I'm a man, I'm not gonna hide under the bed.

Then--then--then get in the closet.

Pavel, Pavel-- - No, okay, will you--

Please, we'll talk about it later, okay?

All right, come--coming.

Oh, Thomas, you made it.

Oh, tell that to the hotel.

They've given away my fucking room.

You know, I haven't bathed or slept or had a decent meal

in the last 48 hours.

I'm totally shagged out.

I mean--and to boot, they lost my suitcase.

I'm sorry, darling, but do you mind if I just

put my head down for five minutes?

I don't--oh, I'm so tired.

Yes, yes, you should rest.

Get some rest because our meeting with Delgado

is not for three hours.

- Oh, well. - Yeah.

- Not good form to keep a billionaire waiting, huh?

No.

Don't forget to wake me.

Nope.

Hey, meet me in the lobby at 6:30.

We got a cab to the restaurant.

- Perfect, can't wait. - Maestro.

"Hai Lai," awesome playing last night.

Thank you.

- It was sexy, but it was not together, not together, eh?

And well done for not eating those carnitas, Bob.

Yeah, that was also not together. Dee Dee, what's up?

Checking out the Frida Kahlo museum.

Man, that lady does some tricky shit.

- Yeah, yeah, check out-- check out the.

- Whoa, baby.. - How are you doing?

Good, yes. Hey. Muy bien.

Do you want to hear what we're doing today?

Yes, tell me. "Hai Lai," tell me.

- Okay, first we have a press conference until 11:00.

Then you have a photo op with Miss Cancun.

- Is that Miss Cancun? - That is.

Then you have the big meeting with Juan Luis Delgado.

Then you have the--

Gracias, gracias, mucho gracias.

- Then you have the meet and greet with the Pumas soccer

team, and then you have dinner the mayor.

- Hey, hi. "Hai Lai," do you know how to make God laugh?

You tickle him.

- No, no, you don't tickle him because he's not ticklish.

Everybody knows that.

I'll show you how.

Come, come, come, come. - Wait, where are you going?

Come, "Hai Lai," come, come, come.

"Hai Lai, Hai Lai."

You're getting on the bus?

yes, yes, yes, come, come, come.

"Hai Lai," you're just seeing the little tip of the iceberg.

Mexico's this amazing, vast country,

so rich, so transversal, so contradictory,

full of mythology, full of an amazing narrative.

I think you will appreciate it. Look, look, that guy, that guy,

for example, the chubby guy?

- Yeah. - He's Tlaloc, the god of rain.

- Oh, he reminds me very much of this god we have in my country,

the great god SpongeBob.

- Oh, it's so good to see you smile, "Hai Lai."

I smile.

No, you've been a little bit,

you know, grouchy recently.

Yeah, it's my fault, okay? I put you to work a lot,

but today I'm taking you to a very special place.

Where?

Home.

Well, how's my favorite hard-ass lawyer?

How's it going, world traveler?

- You know, honestly, I can't wait to get home to you,

but the show last night was amazing.

Oh, I know.

The Latin rhythms, I mean, you totally nailed it.

I was smiling the whole time.

Right, what are you talking about?

I was there.

What are you doing for lunch?

Where the hell is Rodrigo?

You've got to be patient, Gloria.

It's hard to be king.

No, I think I'll rock the track suit one more day.

- Apparently Virgil saw Rodrigo and Hailey leave the hotel

over an hour ago.

They jumped on a bus?

- Oh, great. - Well, that's okay.

It's just you and me, baby.

Come on, let's go, just like the old days.

- Hello.

Welcome, Ms. Windsor. This way, please.

- Wonderful. - Oh, God.

Come, Thomas.

- You don't think we're gonna be whacked, do you?

Señora, where are you taking us?

- Mr. Delgado will join you in under one minute, Madame.

- So Maestro was too busy to join us? Unfortunate.

Oh, he sends his deepest apologies.

A matter of urgent personal importance came up.

Of course. Tell me, what is her name?

Oh, you know the Maestro?

- I want to thank you, Juan Luis, for meeting with us.

As you know, we have a proposition.

It's a beautiful country, yes?

You know, Ted Turner has about 2 million acres,

which is nice if you didn't have 3 million like I do.

Oh.

Okay, you see that down there?

Do we have a choice?

- That is where I'm creating the largest mestengo sanctuary

in the entire world.

It is my pride and joy.

You call them mustangs.

Wild horses.

"Couldn't drag me away."

Ah, you like the Stones, huh?

They played at my daughter's quinceañera.

Well, Mick played at my wedding

with half the bridesmaids.

Definitely got a bit of satisfaction there.

Not to drag you two wild horses away,

but, um, everyone knows that MexiMundial

is looking to penetrate the American market,

and if you should decide to buy the naming rights

to our new symphony hall,

we could create a very lucrative synergy between our two brands.

Yes, si, no, what you are saying is--

it's very practical.

My marketing team will be very pleased.

Oh, yes, of course, what--

but the cross-promotional opportunities--

Gloria, shh, please stop.

Quit while you're behind.

You're right, wild horses need sanctuaries,

but so do wild artists.

Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, they were all geniuses, sure,

but they needed men of great vision

to bring their genius to the rest of the world.

Do you mind if I plug in?

See, you don't buy bloody naming rights

for some cross-promotional bullshit.

You do it to let the music live.

"La Boheme."

"La Boheme," beautiful,

and your name should take its rightful place

along the great patrons in history,

Emperor Franz-Joseph,

Cosimo De Medici,

Juan Luis Delgado.

Juan Luis De Medici, I like it.

Oh, fucking A, you do.

You're pretty crazy, huh, Pembrook?

Yeah, Pembridge, actually, but yes,

crazy like a fox.

You know what?

I say we make this beautiful music together.

Yes.

- I thought that you grew up in Mexico City with Manu.

Yeah, I grew up with Manu,

but then, you know, we would get into so much trouble,

and my parents send me here to my grandmother's right here.

Is she still alive?

Ho, she's so alive.

You'll see. She's, like, incredibly alive.

Okay, I got it.

- It's so beautiful. - You like it?

- Yeah, it's, like, from another time or something.

Yeah, it's like this since I was a kid.

Hey. -

I didn't have the courtesy

to tell you that I was coming.

Ah, perfecto.

- I wish that we'd come here before the performance.
