00:00Welcome to Buenos Aires.

00:02Anything to declare?

00:03Uh, no.

00:06Stop, sir!

00:07What is in your bag?

00:08Show me now.

00:13Where is he from?

00:14Is he your pet?

00:16I rescued him from an oil slick,

00:18and now he thinks he's my friend,

00:20but he's not my friend.

00:21Why did you save his life?

00:23I was trying to impress a woman I wanted to sleep with.

00:25Go and be free in the sea.

00:38Welcome to a St. George's school.

00:40Argentina's in chaos.

00:42The coup is imminent.

00:44Whatever opinions you have,

00:46keep some to yourself.

00:47And no smoking, no pets.

00:50If you keep this between ourselves,

00:52I'll let you all feed him some fish.

00:54Deal?

00:56Yes, yes, he's okay with that.

01:02What is he doing here?

01:04I have to take him to a zoo.

01:06Why do you want to lock him up?

01:08Just obeying the rules.

01:09And you always obey the rules.

01:12What's your story?

01:13I find people so interesting.

01:15Don't you?

01:17Uh, no.

01:25I used to be young and idealistic like you,

01:28but I lost something.

01:32And I was scared.

01:34Life changes you.

01:35Then I look forward to being all cynical.

01:38What do you think?

01:42Everyone is looking for something.

01:44What are you looking for?

01:49I want to make a difference.

01:52I had you as a head-down sort of fella.

01:55What happened to you?

01:57I met a penguin.

02:03You have a penguin in there?

02:05A penguin.

02:06A penguin.

02:10Yes.
