I Can Quit Whenever I Want (Lo dejo cuando quiera)

Hey! Excuse me!

Excuse me!

Kid! Seriously!

I'll go up and say something.

Yeah, ask if we can come.

No, don't. We have exams, boys.

So do they. But that doesn't stop them from fucking.

I'll say to turn down the music.

They'll turn it up even higher, like last time.

Yay, party!

Sorry, girls, the party is upstairs.

No, there's a party here too. Yeah, yeah.

Look, that's liquid ecstasy.

Hey, please! Look, boys.

We have three months to finals, let's focus a little.

If these girls want, they can stay and we'll organize a group study session.

Oh, yeah, great plan.

Eligio, philology.

Pedro, chemistry.

Arturo, economics.

Are you letters or sciences?

No... hey! Hey!

Tell them to turn down the music!

One of them was dressed like a tyrolean.

She only needed the milk jugs.

I'm going to the bathroom while the image is still fresh.

Wait.

All of this effort will be worth it, right?

Friends, romans, countrymen...

I guarantee it.

Come on.

Why does he think he can win?

Because he boasts of having put Spain in the top eight countries in the world.

The Spanish economy has entered the champions league of the global economy.

Ten years later

statistics say that 23% of teachers

make less than 500 Euros a month...

Investment in universities has dropped

by 5 billion Euros, affecting mostly...

We don't want any marketing.

It's your tutor.

We don't want tutors.

Open up, dummy.

Oh, sorry.

I can quit whenever I want

therefore we can confirm that the presence of alkyl polyglycosidic surfactants

does not interfere when measuring narrow-range ethoxylates

and alkyl polyglycosides. Any questions?

Then more tomorrow.

We're finished.

So you have a driver's license?

Of course I do. Cars, motorcycles,

trucks,

bicycles, scooters...

Anything that burns rubber is awesome. Totally.

Experience in the courier business?

I worked two years for a courier company.

It went under after a terrible legal diatribe.

Very sad.

- What did you say? - Very sad.

No, before.

The thing about the tribe.

No, diatribe.

No.

No university graduates here.

And the function of this derivative is...?

Hey, you!

Tonight... party.

It's Tuesday. So?

Put down your phone. You owe me three classes.

Talk to my mom. She's never here.

- She works a lot. - You could try it too, you know.

I'm your only student. What would you live on?

Keep your pants on, I know where she keeps the money.

You do?

Are you leaving?

Yeah, she left. The little bitch.

Pedro, how are you? How are your new students?

Great, very appreciative, but I think they don't understand a single word.

Yeah, none of them passed the language test.

Then why are they here?

A program with the university of Shanghai.

We need their money and they need our prestige.

What prestige?

Besides, my project has been on hold for months.

The vitamin complex, it needs funding.

Oh, right.

Look, do me a favor and correct these exams for me.

And cheer up, Spanish universities are among the best in the world.

My project is this close to getting green lighted.

- Really? - Really.

Sure.

Practically.

Not even close.

- I hate him. - No, you don't.

You hate yourself.

Gloria, please, don't start.

Years repressing yourself,

keeping it all inside, emptied you out.

Then I must be full.

- Excuse me? - Following your logic,

if I kept it all inside, then I'm full.

- You're empty. - I think I'm very full.

So empty. Full.

== === = = sas

you've given your life to science. What has it given you? Think about it.

When you're scared at night,

- what do you cling to? - To you,

until you left me.

It was a toxic relationship.

Arsenic is toxic, polychlorides are toxic.

- Relationships have ups and downs. - Pedro, open up to the world.

You see this? This is your comfort zone,

but out here is where the magic happens.

Did you read that on a coffee mug?

Maybe it was you're f...

You're right.

You're right, I think we should...

Yeah?

Stop seeing each other.

Sign the divorce papers finally.

That's not easy, my lawyer has to see them.

- You don't have a lawyer. - That's why it's not easy.

Daddy,

are you sure this is euro Disney?

Sure, this is their barrio del Pilar branch.

It was uncle Walt's dying wish.

Mom, did you tell him what he has to do?

- Yes, leave my comfort zone. - No, show some balls!

- Claudia... - You said it last night on the phone.

And that you were going to buy Ben wa balls.

It's so late! We're leaving.

Okay, I'll see you next week. I love you, be good.

Let's go.

You must have heard wrong, I never said that.

It was almudena, almudena said it.

You! You promised me funding.

I've spent years on my project

making squat when I would make triple in the private sector.

Why? Because I'm not a good scientist.

I mean, I am, the thing is, I'm very good.

The best, and I have balls.

Two, my daughter told me.

I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me.

No, it's okay, you're right. You're a great scientist.

- Thank you. - Yeah, the best.

Thank you.

Good luck in the private sector.

Excuse me? You're fired.

No, you got me wrong, I want to keep my job.

Oh! I'm sorry, I just hired someone.

- When? - Right now, linkedln.

Linkedln?

It actually works, you know.

What were you thinking? Under every rock there are five willing to do your job. Get out.

Get out!

- What a bastard. - It's my own fault.

Yeah, for listening to your ex-wife.

Wife. We haven't signed the papers yet.

Sic transit Gloria mundi.

"Thus passes the glory of the world."

How did we end up like this?

- This is your project? - Yeah.

It's a vitamin supplement. It strengthens concentration for studying.

- Like a drug? - No.

A medicine that strengthens perception? Sounds like a drug.

Look, all medicines are drugs.

- Like this one? - Yes.

What are you doing? Are you crazy? It's not approved, not even for rats.

Want some?

- It expired months ago. - It gets you higher that way.

I'm against stimulants.

Two majors, three masters and not a single cup of coffee during exams.

And not one fucking party. For what?

To end up like you, divorced and unemployed, or like you,

living with your parents, or like me, I studied economics to be a millionaire

and I'm a bum. I'll tell you one thing.

We wasted our twenties without partying. Let's not waste our thirties.

You're right, give me one.

What are you doing?

You said they were being tested.

Yeah. Yeah.

And now it's your turn, open your mouth.

- Not in a million years. - Come on, open wide.

- Hey! - Not in a million lifetimes!

Eat it, motherfucker!

- Do you feel anything? - It tastes bitter.

It takes a little while to hit you, right?

Great.

I'm leaving.

- Where to? - To get my things.

Okay.

Dalton's atomic model

allowed us to clarify...

Sorry. I'll come back later.

No, gather your things and get the fuck out.

His model allowed us to clarify for the first time

why chemical substances reacted in stoichiometric proportions...

You're leaving?

I got fired.
