00:00:00Cut it out.
00:00:26You got this.
00:00:27Sorry to keep you waiting.
00:00:30Oh, no worries.
00:00:31Abril Torres.
00:00:32Greg Patterson.
00:00:33Sit.
00:00:35So, Abril.
00:00:37Great name.
00:00:39My father was from Argentina.
00:00:41Ah, I've always wanted to go there.
00:00:43It's beautiful.
00:00:44I spent every summer there when I was a kid.
00:00:46Lucky you.
00:00:47Listen, Abril, I'm gonna cut straight to the chase here.
00:00:50Your resume's great.
00:00:51Dual MBAs, senior consultant at Davro,
00:00:54running a team at McKinner Financial.
00:00:56You've, um, developed strategies for some of the biggest Fortune 500 companies on the planet.
00:01:01And then, nothing.
00:01:04For a year.
00:01:06Why?
00:01:07Greg, I'd rather focus on the future and what I can do for you and your clients.
00:01:13Paradigm shifts, visionary thinking, disruptive innovation.
00:01:18That's where my strengths lie, not in the past.
00:01:21Hmm.
00:01:23Listen, Abril, um...
00:01:27I know who you are.
00:01:28I mean, you're sort of a legend.
00:01:30You're the business consultant who almost drove a billion-dollar corporation into bankruptcy.
00:01:35I need to know what went wrong.
00:01:40Greg, I would be good at this job.
00:01:43I live, breathe, eat business strategies.
00:01:47It has been my entire adult life.
00:01:49And my track record of success far outweighs one little hiccup.
00:01:54Come on, Abril, give me the inside scoop, okay?
00:01:59I can use it to scare my junior consultants into working weekends.
00:02:04You're like the ultimate cautionary tale.
00:02:07Thank you for your time.
00:02:09Please let me know if opportunities arise in the future.
00:02:13Thanks.
00:02:20Hey, Mom.
00:02:21Well, the interview didn't go great, but don't worry.
00:02:26I still have savings.
00:02:28Yes, I'm eating.
00:02:31Not exactly oat cuisine, but I'll cook tomorrow.
00:02:35How are you?
00:02:37Oh, actually, Mom, could I call you back?
00:02:40Belinda's calling me.
00:02:41Bye.
00:02:42Bye.
00:02:44Hola, cuz.
00:02:45Hola, amiga.
00:02:46¿Cómo te fue la entrevista de trabajo?
00:02:48Okay, come on.
00:02:49You know my Spanish isn't that good.
00:02:51I asked how the dub interview went.
00:02:54Well, I'm eating toaster pastries out of a box at four in the afternoon.
00:02:59You decide.
00:03:00Oh, I love toaster pastries.
00:03:04Not the point.
00:03:05I'm sorry about the interviews.
00:03:07Okay, enough about me.
00:03:08How are you?
00:03:09How's the ranch?
00:03:10Sorry, la estancia.
00:03:11See, I remember some Spanish.
00:03:13Well, that's actually why I'm calling.
00:03:15I got an offer.
00:03:17Someone wants to buy the ranch.
00:03:20What?
00:03:21I think we should take it.
00:03:23It's a good offer.
00:03:25Bell, why would we ever do that?
00:03:27You love it there.
00:03:28I love it there.
00:03:29I loved our summers there.
00:03:31You haven't been here since you were 18 years old.
00:03:34When el abuelo passed and left the ranch to us, you were in America living your dream and I never folded you for life.
00:03:44But I was here.
00:03:46And it's just been me for all these years.
00:03:49I think it's time for me to live my dream.
00:03:52I could use my half of the sale to finally open a restaurant.
00:03:55Okay, there's gotta be a way that we can, I don't know, have our toaster pastries and eat them too?
00:04:03How?
00:04:05I don't know yet.
00:04:07But Bell, this is what I do.
00:04:09I look at companies and I find ways to make them better.
00:04:13I can get you your dream without selling the ranch.
00:04:16And maybe in the process I can add another successful story to my resume.
00:04:20Maybe this is the ticket I need to get my dream back here in Boston.
00:04:23Please, let me try.
00:04:26Okay, what do I need to do?
00:04:30Clean out a guest room?
00:04:33Wait, what?
00:04:35Are you coming to Argentina?
00:04:39Yes.
00:04:40Yes!
00:04:41Why don't you make toaster pastries?
00:04:45Deal.
00:04:56Come on!
00:05:13Avery!
00:05:15Hi!
00:05:16It's so good to see you.
00:05:18Are you going to a meeting?
00:05:19Why are you dressed like that?
00:05:21What is wrong with the way I'm dressed?
00:05:23Did you forget it was summer here?
00:05:25Over here, it must be at least 32 degrees.
00:05:28OK, what's the conversion to Fahrenheit again?
00:05:30Take it times two at 30.
00:05:32Close enough.
00:05:33OK, you can change back the range.
00:05:34But first, we have to salute the national flag,
00:05:37which means drink some Malbec and eat a steak.
00:05:41You've been gone too long, Amiya.
00:05:55You ordered a whole bottle?
00:05:59It's lunch.
00:06:00If it was dinner, we'd get to...
00:06:03To my cousin, mi mejor amiga.
00:06:05Ah, I remember that.
00:06:07Best friend.
00:06:08Mmm.
00:06:10OK, so, tell me everything.
00:06:14Are you seeing anyone?
00:06:16I live in a ranch.
00:06:18I live in a ranch.
00:06:19I live in a ranch.
00:06:21I live in a ranch.
00:06:22I live in a ranch.
00:06:24I live in a ranch in the middle of nowhere.
00:06:27The dating pool, it's not exactly deep.
00:06:30Well, what about that guy?
00:06:31He worked at that restaurant a few towns over.
00:06:33I mean, you guys had a lot in common.
00:06:35He spent all his time watching soccer matches on his phone,
00:06:39including while we were on dates.
00:06:41No thanks.
00:06:43Just once.
00:06:44I want to date someone who owns a tie.
00:06:47I spent the last 15 years dating guys who own lots of ties.
00:06:51I promise you, it does not make them grown-ups.
00:06:54Whatever happened to romance?
00:06:56Passion.
00:06:57Your heart fluttering every time you see each other.
00:07:01Viva el amor.
00:07:02Long live love.
00:07:03Oh.
00:07:05I haven't heard that since...
00:07:07Diego.
00:07:09Oh, Diego.
00:07:13It's a blast from the past.
00:07:14I thought the two of you would last forever.
00:07:17Until that last summer.
00:07:20And that he broke your heart.
00:07:22Oh, no, no, no, no, let's not give him that much credit.
00:07:26He was a childhood sweetheart.
00:07:28My romantic idea of a gaucho complete with a guitar.
00:07:32And then he just rode off into the sunset,
00:07:36never to be heard from again.
00:07:38And I haven't thought about him in years.
00:07:41He moved to Mexico.
00:07:42Mexico City.
00:07:44Yeah, he went into finance, and then he just...
00:07:49Okay, I looked him up on social media a few times.
00:07:53But then he fell off the grid.
00:07:54I have no idea where he is.
00:07:55Well, I'm...
00:07:56Oh, come on, look at that.
00:08:01I really have been trying to eat less red meat.
00:08:03Mmm.
00:08:09Okay.
00:08:10I have been gone way too long.
00:08:12Yes, you have, amiga.
00:08:13Oh, it's delicious.
00:08:33I have never seen someone so happy to be bucking a horse stall.
00:08:57Love your work, and I will love you right back.
00:09:00Who taught me that?
00:09:01You did, Papa.
00:09:04And this is good on its work.
00:09:06It's its own reward.
00:09:07Well, I'm glad to hear you say it now.
00:09:09It took you a while to understand it.
00:09:11What I don't understand is why we're speaking English.
00:09:15Well, you know, I want to practice.
00:09:16For what?
00:09:17Well, you should know.
00:09:18Belinda's coming back from Buenos Aires.
00:09:21And?
00:09:22With our very special guest.
00:09:24Who's that?
00:09:26Abril?
00:09:27Abril.
00:09:28No, she arrives on Tuesday.
00:09:30Well, today is Tuesday.
00:09:31Therese, you say?
00:09:34What?
00:09:35No, no, no, no, no.
00:09:36I'm not ready.
00:09:37I can't see I really like this.
00:09:38I gotta change this.
00:09:39Oh, you still have feelings for her, huh?
00:09:41No, that was a teenage romance thing, and we both went different directions, literally.
00:09:47Then what should it matter what you look like when you meet her, no?
00:09:50Dad, this is business.
00:09:52My first impressions are very important.
00:09:54Come on, Diego.
00:09:55You're doing a good, honest job that you love.
00:09:57I'm sure she will understand that.
00:09:59Yeah, I gotta change.
00:10:00Andres!
00:10:01Andres!
00:10:02Meli!
00:10:03Abril!
00:10:04Que bueno verte!
00:10:05So good to see you!
00:10:06Oh, mi amor!
00:10:07Oh, I've missed you!
00:10:08And what do you think?
00:10:09Is it everything you remember?
00:10:10Oh, and more.
00:10:12Who's that?
00:10:13Oh, that's Diego.
00:10:14No, that's not Diego.
00:10:16Diego?
00:10:17He was here?
00:10:18Why didn't you tell me?
00:10:19Yeah, about that.
00:10:20I got distracted by lunch.
00:10:21Well, the Malbec may have played a play, but I'm sure he was here.
00:10:24Andres!
00:10:25Andres!
00:10:26So good to see you!
00:10:27Oh, my love!
00:10:28Oh, I've missed you!
00:10:29And what do you think?
00:10:30Is it everything you remember?
00:10:31Oh, and more.
00:10:32Who's that?
00:10:33Oh, that's Diego.
00:10:34No, that's not Diego.
00:10:35Diego?
00:10:36He was here?
00:10:37Why didn't you tell me?
00:10:38Yeah, about that.
00:10:40I got distracted by lunch.
00:10:42Well, the Malbec may have played a part.
00:10:47Avil!
00:10:48So nice to see you.
00:10:50Diego, hi, Doug.
00:10:52It's good to see you.
00:10:54So you're back.
00:10:56So you're back?
00:10:58Yes, I work here with my parents on the ranch now.
00:11:01Really?
00:11:02Well, that's good to know.
00:11:03Would have been good to know a little earlier.
00:11:06Would you like me to give you a tour?
00:11:08Oh, Diego, come on.
00:11:09I practically grew up here.
00:11:10I know my way around.
00:11:11That was many years ago, and there's so many changes, like the news tables.
00:11:15You need to see that.
00:11:16Want to come?
00:11:17Sure.
00:11:18No toaster pastries for you.
00:11:23This is going to be fun.
00:11:27So, when did you move back from Mexico City?
00:11:30I told you I lived there.
00:11:31Oh, I guess I heard it.
00:11:33From Belinda, probably.
00:11:34I mean, it's not like I looked you up online or anything.
00:11:36Of course not.
00:11:37But yes, I worked in finance, and I didn't like it.
00:11:40Why not?
00:11:41Because I realized I don't like having a boss.
00:11:43So I sold everything, and I traveled the continents.
00:11:45And I worked in ranches.
00:11:46I played music.
00:11:47I talked to people.
00:11:48I wanted to be free.
00:11:49And I was free.
00:11:50Who's playing you in this movie?
00:11:51Oh, sorry, sorry.
00:11:52I just, um, I wanted to be free, and I was free?
00:11:53Yeah.
00:11:54What is all that?
00:11:55What do you mean?
00:11:56Well, what do I mean?
00:11:57We grew up together.
00:11:58We...
00:11:59You were this funny guy who liked American TV and hip-hop and read poetry.
00:12:04He never took this whole gaucha thing too seriously.
00:12:09Well, how about you?
00:12:10Well, what about me?
00:12:12You were running around here pretending to be a gaucha with your knees scraped and muddy
00:12:30clothes.
00:12:32You were...
00:12:32What's that word?
00:12:34I'm trying to...
00:12:36Free.
00:12:38I'm still free.
00:12:40Your expensive suit would say otherwise.
00:12:43I just got off the plate. I haven't had time to change yet.
00:12:46I think a lot has changed.
00:12:48Come on, I'll show you.
00:12:50Makes a good day.
00:13:03That's me.
00:13:06My abuelos.
00:13:08Did you... did you put up all these photos here?
00:13:11Yes, and upgraded the paints, expanded this table so we could board more horses.
00:13:16Oh, I can see that.
00:13:19So, uh...
00:13:21Tell me about your life now.
00:13:23Uh, in Boston, right?
00:13:27How did you know that I was in Boston?
00:13:31Belinda must have told me.
00:13:33Oh.
00:13:34Yeah, I'm still there.
00:13:36I was working as a business consultant for a long time, but now I'm...
00:13:40I don't know, I'm looking for new opportunities.
00:13:42In Argentina?
00:13:44No, no, no, no. Just, no.
00:13:46I'm only here because Belinda's talking about the...
00:13:50Well, it's just a long overdue visit.
00:13:52I haven't been here since...
00:13:54That summer?
00:13:56Yeah.
00:13:58It was a good summer.
00:14:01They all were.
00:14:04I looked forward to them.
00:14:07Me too.
00:14:10Uh, how long are you staying?
00:14:12Maybe a couple weeks.
00:14:14Then...
00:14:15Iguazu falls on my way home.
00:14:17I still have never been.
00:14:19Yeah, we were going to do that together.
00:14:22Yeah, we were going to do a lot of things together.
00:14:32Okay, so I have to ask.
00:14:34You left...
00:14:37Home.
00:14:38You left home.
00:14:39And now you're back.
00:14:41How do your parents feel about you freeing yourself from your...
00:14:47Finance degree and successful career just to...
00:14:50Come back here and take over your father's job as a caretaker?
00:14:56My grandfather worked for your grandfathers.
00:14:58My father after that.
00:15:01We built this place, we birthed the calves, we trained the horses.
00:15:05My people have been out just here for centuries.
00:15:07I am here to preserve their traditions, their legacy.
00:15:10So no, I'm not just a caretaker here.
00:15:13Diego, that's not...
00:15:15You know, I think we should get you back to the main house.
00:15:19You probably want to change out of your clothes.
00:15:23Sure.
00:15:24Yeah.
00:15:27Mmm.
00:15:28Oh, Belinda.
00:15:29Everything is so good.
00:15:31Good enough to be served in a restaurant?
00:15:33Good enough for a chain of restaurants.
00:15:35Okay, so have you figured out how it's going to happen yet?
00:15:38Well, I'm going to sit down with the financials after dinner
00:15:41and run some numbers, dig into the offer.
00:15:44We're going to figure this out.
00:15:45Okay.
00:15:46Did you tell Andres and Feli that you were considering selling?
00:15:50Oh, well, actually, Diego...
00:15:52Oh, let me guess.
00:15:53I gave you the whole speech about the life of a gaucho.
00:15:56Well, you know, he loves it here.
00:15:59Yeah, I get it. I do too.
00:16:01After my parents divorced, it was always two households,
00:16:06two cultures, two different versions of me.
00:16:10Too American to be Argentinian, too Argentinian to be American.
00:16:14But when I was here, none of that mattered.
00:16:19Here I felt like I had solid ground under my feet.
00:16:23And why did you stop coming?
00:16:26Well, I always meant to come back and even retire here.
00:16:32But in the meantime, I got busy.
00:16:36I found solid ground back home.
00:16:40My career was, well, was being the operative word.
00:16:46It'll be an is again, starting here.
00:16:50Thank you, Belle.
00:16:52Thank you, Belle.
00:16:54And then the assets minus amortization, but then the market position...
00:17:06How do you move?
00:17:09Amiya, did you not sleep at all?
00:17:17No, no. I've been up all night trying to sort through all of this.
00:17:20Most of it is in Spanish, so I hadn't, depending on translation apps.
00:17:23But I think I'm getting really close. I can't quite...
00:17:27Did you drink all this mate?
00:17:29Yeah, well, it's basically herbal tea.
00:17:32It's basically rocket fuel.
00:17:34There's enough caffeine in this to keep you awake for a week.
00:17:37Oh, is that why I'm saying strange colors?
00:17:39Okay, you need to get some sleep.
00:17:40No, something just isn't adding up.
00:17:42Yes, the papers are upside down.
00:17:45Oh.
00:17:47I mean, um...
00:17:48No, I'm so close.
00:17:50I just...
00:17:51I just, I can't quite figure out something.
00:17:54Why don't you take a walk, clear your mind?
00:17:58Maybe that will help.
00:17:59Okay.
00:18:00And leave those here, please.
00:18:02Go, go, go.
00:18:15Oh, oh!
00:18:20Shouldn't sneak up on people.
00:18:21Sure I wear a belt?
00:18:22Yeah, I'd appreciate that. Thanks.
00:18:24Okay, what is it? You seem a bit... jumpy.
00:18:30Yeah, no, I'm fine. I just, um...
00:18:33Well, I...
00:18:35There's a problem. I just...
00:18:37I can't figure it out.
00:18:39Can I help?
00:18:40No, it's business stuff. It's just financial statements and proposals and...
00:18:44I worked in finance before I became a caretaker, so...
00:18:47Right. Sorry.
00:18:48Okay, listen, I know that Belinda told you that there's an offer to sell the ranch.
00:18:52Yes.
00:18:53But this company that wants to buy it, this DTM, is offering a lot less than what the property is worth based on my research, and I just...
00:18:59I can't figure out why.
00:19:00I mean, am I missing something? Is there something about this property that would account for that?
00:19:05No, the property's fine. Also, they're offering a very fair price. It's just below market value. And if it's all they have, and Belinda wants to sell...
00:19:19Yeah, but Belinda doesn't want to sell. She just wants to open a restaurant. And I don't want to sell.
00:19:24You don't?
00:19:25No. No, what I want is to eat the toaster pastries I have. It's a metaphor. I'm sorry. Uh, never mind.
00:19:37Maybe instead of buying, they invest.
00:19:39Well, what if they don't want to invest? What if they want to own the ranch?
00:19:44Well, then we don't call it an investment. We can just take on a partner.
00:19:47But they don't want a partner. They want to own the ranch outright.
00:19:50How do you know?
00:19:52DTM, Diego, Teodoro, Mendez.
00:19:59You? You want to buy the ranch?
00:20:01Yes. I thought that's why you were here, to sell it to me.
00:20:04No, I'm here to find a way so we don't sell the ranch to anyone.
00:20:08Well, then we have a problem.
00:20:10Yes, we do.
00:20:13What are we going to do about that?
00:20:15Well, I don't know. Yet.
00:20:18But I am going to go convince Belinda that the best idea is to keep the ranch.
00:20:22No. I'm going to go and convince Belinda that the best idea is to sell it to me.
00:20:27Really?
00:20:28Yeah.
00:20:31Really?
00:20:32Hey! Hey!
00:20:35What if I sell my half to Diego and then you two can own it together? I mean, partners.
00:20:39No, no, I don't want partners.
00:20:40No, he doesn't want a boss.
00:20:41Listen, if I had a partner, you would never be my boss.
00:20:44Oh, so you would be the boss of me.
00:20:46Belinda, I know that I can solve this. I need to solve this.
00:20:51You said you'd give me a chance to figure out a way to get you your restaurant without selling the ranch.
00:20:55Will you please still give me that chance?
00:20:56Yes, of course.
00:20:57No, Belinda, you said you'd sell it to me.
00:21:00I said if Abril agreed.
00:21:02Abril doesn't agree.
00:21:04You will.
00:21:05I won't.
00:21:06We'll see.
00:21:08Yes, we will.
00:21:10Is everything okay?
00:21:12No!
00:21:13No!
00:21:17Remember how I said this was going to be fun?
00:21:20I was wrong.
00:21:27Hey.
00:21:35Did you sleep?
00:21:36I did.
00:21:37I'm totally refreshed and ready to get back to work.
00:21:39Abril, I don't want this to cause problems between us.
00:21:42It won't.
00:21:43What about Diego?
00:21:44Well, what about him?
00:21:46I was including him in the us part of I don't want this to cause problems between us.
00:21:50Well, that I can't promise.
00:21:53He's obviously got this grandiose vision of him riding in like a heroic gaucho to save the ranch.
00:21:59And you know what?
00:22:00The ranch doesn't need saving and neither do we.
00:22:02And I'm going to prove it.
00:22:04How?
00:22:05Well, we need to start fighting fire with fire.
00:22:10I don't understand.
00:22:12The first rule of business consultancy is to fit into your environment.
00:22:17Make it seem like you belong there.
00:22:19Okay, so?
00:22:21So?
00:22:22So?
00:22:23We're going shopping.
00:22:47Nice boots.
00:22:52Who do we have here?
00:22:54Megan.
00:22:56This is a stallion?
00:22:58So, he's Megan the stallion?
00:23:01Yeah.
00:23:02You're doing, I suppose.
00:23:03I will introduce it to Ross and Rachel later.
00:23:06So, these boots, are they your business strategy for the ranch?
00:23:11No, I'm still reviewing documents so I can understand how everything works.
00:23:16I love Belle, but organization is not exactly her strong suit.
00:23:20Well, that's why she relies on someone who understands the ranch without having to read a bunch of documents.
00:23:24And that, my friend, explains the boots.
00:23:27To have a good business strategy, you have to do research.
00:23:31And I'm not too proud to admit that there are things that I need to learn in order to make an informed recommendation.
00:23:37And who are you going to learn all this stuff from?
00:23:43It's me?
00:23:46What's so funny?
00:23:48So, you want me to help you convince Belinda not to sell the ranch to me?
00:23:54Why would I do that?
00:23:56Well, I still own half this ranch, and you are an employee, so technically...
00:24:02Don't say it.
00:24:03I'm your boss.
00:24:04Good morning.
00:24:05Good morning, Andres.
00:24:06How are you?
00:24:07I'm well, how are you?
00:24:08Look at you.
00:24:09You're coming on the ride today, right?
00:24:10Oh, uh...
00:24:12Today, we take the horses to the Pampas.
00:24:15You want to learn about the ranch?
00:24:16The trail ride is the best place to start.
00:24:19Well then, yes.
00:24:20I'd love to.
00:24:22Wonderful.
00:24:25Let's do it.
00:24:29So, how many rides do we do a day?
00:24:31Let's see, we do one every morning.
00:24:33Well, that seems like a missed opportunity for revenue.
00:24:36Shouldn't we be doing multiple today?
00:24:37No, it's too hot in the afternoons.
00:24:39And difficult for the horses and the tourists, because it can get above 30 degrees.
00:24:44Times two at 30.
00:24:46Got it.
00:24:48What about nighttime rides?
00:24:50Campfire tours could be fun.
00:24:52You know what?
00:24:53That is a great idea that I've already implemented with Belinda's blessing.
00:24:57Yeah.
00:24:58But there's so many things that need to be taken care of around here.
00:25:01The fence line needs to be checked.
00:25:02Every month.
00:25:03Supplies reordered every quarter.
00:25:05Then the horses and the cows need to be fed and watered daily and vaccinated every year.
00:25:12And we have to make allowances for all these repairs that come up all the time.
00:25:15On top of that, you have the group bookings and seasonal hirings.
00:25:19But I can save you some time if you want.
00:25:22And, you know, just explain my business plan.
00:25:25You have a business plan?
00:25:28What?
00:25:29Are you surprised that the caretaker can make one?
00:25:31Oh, come on.
00:25:32You're gonna have to let that go.
00:25:34I never meant it to be.
00:25:35My family have been here since before I was born.
00:25:37Oh, here we go.
00:25:38Diego, I checked with Belinda.
00:25:40You've only been back here a few months.
00:25:42You've been gone almost as long as I have.
00:25:45The only difference is I never wanted to leave.
00:25:46Well, you always left.
00:25:47You remember when we used to race to the other side?
00:26:15And you almost drowned I had to carry you?
00:26:18No.
00:26:19I pretended to drown so you could take care of me.
00:26:21Oh, yeah.
00:26:22You're telling yourself that.
00:26:24Would you mind taking a photo?
00:26:27Of course.
00:26:28Of course.
00:26:29Thanks.
00:26:34Perfect.
00:26:38So this is your daily life, huh?
00:26:40Just ride horses to the river, take pictures of people.
00:26:44No.
00:26:45Sometimes we ride horses to the lake and take pictures of people.
00:26:49Why?
00:26:50What's your day like?
00:26:51Well, if I'm working, I'm sitting in front of a computer for 12 hours until I remember to eat.
00:26:57And if you're not working?
00:26:59I worry about why I'm not working.
00:27:00I just send emails, check my phone.
00:27:01So you're working even if you're not working?
00:27:03Yeah.
00:27:04And, uh, how's your family?
00:27:05Well, my mom lives in San Diego, but we talk all the time.
00:27:06And after dad passed, he...
00:27:07Oh.
00:27:08Sorry.
00:27:09He was a good man.
00:27:10Yeah.
00:27:11Yeah.
00:27:12Yeah.
00:27:13Yeah.
00:27:14Yeah.
00:27:15Yeah, he was.
00:27:16He thought about coming back here and running the place.
00:27:17But since he was gone and Belle's parents didn't want it, Grandma and Grandpa left it to us.
00:27:23Sometimes I wonder what they were thinking.
00:27:24That they loved you.
00:27:25I'm sorry.
00:27:26That first picture didn't turn out very well because you were a good guy.
00:27:27You know what they were thinking?
00:27:28Ah, and I love you.
00:27:31Yeah.
00:27:32And now you're on the phone.
00:27:33I don't know what I'm doing.
00:27:34I don't know.
00:27:35I don't know what I'm doing.
00:27:36I don't know.
00:27:37I don't know what I'm doing.
00:27:38I'm a good man.
00:27:39Yeah.
00:27:40Yeah, he was.
00:27:42He thought about coming back here and running the place.
00:27:43But since he was gone and Belle's parents didn't want it, Grandma and Grandpa left it to us.
00:27:46Sometimes I wonder what they were thinking.
00:27:47That they loved you.
00:27:48I'm sorry.
00:27:51Sorry, that first picture didn't turn out very well.
00:27:53Could you take another?
00:27:54I'm sorry, yes, but you know what?
00:27:56Let's go to this spot over here.
00:27:58It's much better, it's more beautiful.
00:28:12You okay?
00:28:14Yeah, yeah, thank you.
00:28:15I could have done that myself.
00:28:17Okay, she wasn't looking for a knight,
00:28:19she was looking for a sword.
00:28:21You still read poetry?
00:28:23Well, yeah.
00:28:25Well, I guess not everything has changed.
00:28:27Seems so.
00:28:29Well, thanks for the trail ride.
00:28:32I think that will really help with my research.
00:28:34Anytime, boss.
00:28:37Ha!
00:28:46Hey, Belle.
00:28:47Um, I need you to explain something to me.
00:28:50Oh, do you need a translation?
00:28:52Oh, no.
00:28:53How about I hold and you read?
00:28:56What's this?
00:28:58Oh, that's a loan.
00:29:00What loan?
00:29:01What loan?
00:29:02Do you remember when we were kids?
00:29:04There was all that flooding?
00:29:06El abuelo had to put in new irrigation to repair the damage to the old stables.
00:29:11So, he got a loan.
00:29:13Well, was it ever repaid?
00:29:15There was a financial crisis in 2001.
00:29:18The banks collapsed.
00:29:19The loan was bought by somebody and then was bought by somebody else and eventually just went away.
00:29:26Belle, loans don't just go away.
00:29:29We still owe this money.
00:29:30To who?
00:29:31I tried to find out.
00:29:32And I was told,
00:29:33Más vale dejarlo estar.
00:29:34Like, it's better to let it be.
00:29:36Well, letting things be is a great way to get in trouble later.
00:29:40I learned that the hard way.
00:29:42Oh, that must be Antonio.
00:29:45Antonio who?
00:29:47Tenaglia.
00:29:48He used to live at a ranch a few miles down the road.
00:29:52He was one of the kids that would hang out here in the summer.
00:29:55Yeah, I remember him, but why is he here?
00:29:57He's a lawyer in Buenos Aires.
00:29:59And we're friends on social media.
00:30:00I asked him to stop by and look at the paperwork.
00:30:02Antonio's a lawyer?
00:30:04He was such a troublemaker when we were kids.
00:30:06I figured by now he'd need a lawyer.
00:30:08That's good.
00:30:15I'm guessing that means you can't believe I'm here.
00:30:22Oh, I must be dreaming. Look at you.
00:30:24Antonio, what is it?
00:30:25Diego, querido.
00:30:26How are you?
00:30:27How are you?
00:30:28It means, how are you?
00:30:29Yeah, I got the gist.
00:30:30Antonio, how are you?
00:30:31Belinda.
00:30:32Hey.
00:30:33Look at you, all grown up.
00:30:34You look amazing.
00:30:35I mean, how are you?
00:30:36Yeah, I got the gist.
00:30:37Antonio, how are you?
00:30:38Belinda.
00:30:39Hey.
00:30:40Look at you, all grown up.
00:30:43You look amazing.
00:30:44Oh, thank you.
00:30:46Wow.
00:30:47It's hard to believe, right?
00:30:49All of us together again as if nothing has changed.
00:30:52Avril and I were just about to sit down to a light lunch.
00:30:56You're welcome to join us.
00:30:57Oh, no.
00:30:58No, I don't want to intrude.
00:31:00Oh.
00:31:01Please, come on.
00:31:02We are all friends, right?
00:31:03Yeah, that's true.
00:31:06After you, friend.
00:31:07Thanks.
00:31:08I mean, I still can't believe you thought it was a good idea to ride a horse standing
00:31:15up.
00:31:16We were playing gauchos.
00:31:17You have to make an entrance.
00:31:19You were lucky you only broke your arm.
00:31:22It could have been your neck.
00:31:23It was Diego's idea.
00:31:24Well, I was 15.
00:31:25I was very stupid.
00:31:26I had a lot of stupid ideas.
00:31:28Yeah, like trying to cross the river in your father's truck?
00:31:31No, that was your idea.
00:31:32It was not.
00:31:33Avril, you suggested we drive.
00:31:35I was joking.
00:31:36I didn't think you'd actually do it.
00:31:38Avril, you know when we were kids, we would have done anything, the two of you asked,
00:31:41right?
00:31:42I don't know about that.
00:31:43Come on.
00:31:44It's true.
00:31:45We both had terrible crashes on you.
00:31:46You did?
00:31:47Of course.
00:31:48You never said anything.
00:31:49Well, I was too young.
00:31:51Diego was the only one smart enough to do anything about his crash.
00:31:58Okay, I have to go.
00:32:00I have a tour group I need to take fishing.
00:32:03So, see you later.
00:32:04We shall go with you.
00:32:06What, fishing?
00:32:07Yes.
00:32:08We used to do it all the time when we were kids.
00:32:11It'll be fun.
00:32:12Avril is only here for a short time and who knows when the four of us will have another
00:32:17chance to relive old memories.
00:32:19You?
00:32:20The more the merrier.
00:32:21Come on.
00:32:22Of course.
00:32:23Okay.
00:32:24We're out of your shot.
00:32:25What is going on with you and Antonio?
00:32:26I don't know what you're talking about.
00:32:28Who knows when we'll have another chance to relive old memories?
00:32:29Okay.
00:32:30He grew up well.
00:32:31He's a successful lawyer.
00:32:32He's funny.
00:32:33He's cute.
00:32:34Well, yes, that doesn't hurt.
00:32:35But I don't know.
00:32:36Maybe now it's not the right time.
00:32:37We're the ranch, the restaurant, and…
00:32:38The right time.
00:32:39Is when you want it to be.
00:32:40Don't let anything else get in the way.
00:32:41Is that what happened?
00:32:42I don't know what you're talking about.
00:32:43Who knows when we'll have another chance to relive old memories?
00:32:48Okay.
00:32:49He grew up well.
00:32:50He's a successful lawyer.
00:32:52He's funny.
00:32:53He's cute.
00:32:54Well, yes, that doesn't hurt.
00:32:57But I don't know.
00:32:58Maybe now it's not the right time with the ranch, the restaurant, and…
00:33:03The right time is when you want it to be.
00:33:06Don't let anything else get in the way.
00:33:08Is that what happened with you and Diego?
00:33:11No.
00:33:12Diego didn't want it to be.
00:33:15We were gonna go to college, but I wanted to go somewhere nearby,
00:33:18so we can both stay on the ranch together, but…
00:33:21He wanted to strike out on his own.
00:33:23Make his mark.
00:33:25So I went back to Boston.
00:33:28Which is fine, because I…
00:33:30Found a new life.
00:33:32Friends, career.
00:33:35You're both here, though.
00:33:37Oh no, I've tangled my line.
00:33:43Antonio, could you help me?
00:33:46You won't catch anything like that.
00:33:51I was never really good at this.
00:33:52Wow.
00:33:53Okay.
00:33:54There you go.
00:33:55Thanks.
00:33:56Okay, so listen.
00:33:57I've been thinking a lot about your business plan.

00:38:35no i never made it there
00:38:41okay
00:38:51thank you so much for coming my pleasure and por favor it's tomas well i'm abril and this is my
00:39:03cousin belinda and we own la rambla well just driving in your property's gorgeous gracias are you hungry
00:39:10i fixed a small snack and by small snacks she means enough food to feed most of south america
00:39:15thank you i just had a little lunch okay then why don't we start with a tour of the property
00:39:21wonderful maybe work up an appetite well sure
00:39:29so this is where we exercise and work the new horses to get them ready for trail riding with guests
00:39:35and also our guest hi hi i'm diego mendez i'm one of the caretakers here
00:39:40tomás compañero so have you worked here long yeah well i grew up here so i know all the complexities
00:39:46of this place what kind of complexity why don't we go see the staples all right oh well you know how to
00:39:53manage the fields and the animals how to irrigate from the river how to deal with the droughts and the
00:39:58fires are there fires yeah all very manageable well i mean and then there's the issues with the guests
00:40:07i mean the marketing insurance don't you have a tour to lead somewhere far away from here no
00:40:15not for two hours oh well guest experiences are specialty so we might be able to lend a hand with
00:40:22that oh yeah yeah how so well like utilizing the undeveloped acreage you have to build
00:40:28more amenities for a more modern clientele well that's a lot in the face of an economic downturn
00:40:34in the agri-food and tourism sector but what do i know i'm just a caretaker here anyway full
00:40:39disclosure i'm sure they told you about um the property's haunted haunted yeah let me show you the
00:40:46stables you mean like proper ghosts and well there's an energy around the whole property
00:40:52i don't like that luke what are you thinking right now just trying to decide whether or not a jury
00:41:02would convict me
00:41:03that was not funny i thought that was very funny what were you thinking because of you we probably
00:41:15blew that deal and how can you be so selfish selfish me that's funny excuse me you come in here and you
00:41:24pretend to be everyone's savior but you know what belinda doesn't need to be saved and neither do i
00:41:30you're doing this to prove something to yourself and once again it's all about what's good for you
00:41:35once again oh is this about what happened when we were 18 years old do you really want to have
00:41:41that conversation now we're here now sure yeah say what you have to say okay fine
00:41:50you were my best friend i mean we only spent summers together but i lived for those summers together
00:42:01and then i fell in love with you and i naively thought that you felt the same way but instead you just
00:42:07you left you left we were both going to leave i just did it first maybe it was just a summer romance
00:42:21maybe
00:42:23and just like summer it had to end at some point no right right
00:42:37nothing makes me feel more argentinian than eating an entire pound of provolone
00:42:45you're truly a special culture
00:42:50okay i have a question
00:42:55do you actually want to keep the ranch
00:42:59i mean uh i know my answer should be a resounding yes but the truth is
00:43:03you and diego went off and had all this success in the world and i i was stuck here
00:43:12i think i'm ready to see what the world has in store for me
00:43:17and besides this place is too much to be run by myself yeah i can see that
00:43:22that we should sell it to diego
00:43:31you don't want to sell it
00:43:34i finally read his business plan and it makes sense it sort of felt like something i would have written
00:43:40i want this place to be in good hands hands that will care for it and if it's not ours then
00:43:53oh oh it's an email from tomas
00:43:57oh no no no no no no what is it no
00:44:08well you remember that loan that you thought just went away
00:44:15tomas found it and guess whose bank owns it now what how is that what does it mean it means that he
00:44:23doesn't want to invest in la rambla he wants to take it
00:44:37hi um i need your help
00:45:07what did you find out it's not good guys i don't know how campanero knew about the loan
00:45:13it was in the information packet i gave him i had to disclose it you did the right thing that his
00:45:20bank is very big and has a lot of connections it wasn't hard for them to find it in the assets of
00:45:25another bank that had failed so he can just buy it and demand they will repay it now i'm afraid so yeah
00:45:32with interest and penalties paying it will take everything he'll own the ranch they want to
00:45:38incorporate it into a resort at our financing there's nothing we can do to stop him well i
00:45:44talked to the bank's lawyers and threatened to tie them up in lawsuits until we are old and gray but
00:45:50i don't know if it will do any good to be honest they said they would talk to campanero
00:45:55this is all my fault no it's my fault i should have taken care of the loan years ago no it's my
00:46:01fault if i didn't want to buy it this wouldn't be happening hey hey guys this is not anyone's fault
00:46:09okay listen i'm gonna make some more calls and go over the paperwork in more detail maybe there's
00:46:15a solution i'm not thinking of yet why don't you three go relax enjoy the city and we can meet back
00:46:22here later thank you antonio what are old friends for i think i'll stay here in case antonio has any
00:46:31questions will you call me if anything comes up i will okay what would you like to do when was the last
00:46:40time that you were in motor science not since i was a kid then allow me to be your tour guide okay
00:46:55how will you ever go back honestly i don't know may i ask
00:47:20what happened with your job oh it was i was working for this big corporation that wanted to buy
00:47:28another big corporation and it was my job to figure out if it was a good idea and um figure out a way to
00:47:36make it happen sounds complicated it was what i was good at i spent months researching and trying to
00:47:43figure out a way to make it happen without a lot of people losing their jobs and i did it made sense
00:47:50but but but turns out there were a lot of background dealings going on behind the scenes at my company
00:47:57and certain reports were changed before they got to me but if i had known i so they blamed you yeah
00:48:07i was a fall guy i don't know maybe i was just too focused on proving myself that i just didn't see what
00:48:14was really happening sort of like i'm doing with the ranch i mean your business plan is smart i should
00:48:21have listened to you i should have realized that you had a lot more things to worry about than what i
00:48:26wanted i wanted to be free and i was free there's obviously more to that story i hated my job i was good
00:48:35at it but i hate it there's no soul in it every day i was going to meeting after meeting making rich
00:48:41people richer one day my father called he said that he was thinking of retiring he explained how
00:48:48much it he loved the ranch and la rambla the life of the gaucho that he instilled in that place for so
00:48:53long all about soul yes soul and i wanted more of that soul a purpose you know so the next day i quit
00:49:07you were right when i was younger i didn't care about being a gaucho
00:49:11it's true but now i i do you take it very seriously i do it's like what is it that they say in your
00:49:19country go big or go home and you did both i did both you did both do you want to dance
00:49:36i can't dance tango dance something else you're argentinian you could try i'm only half argentinian
00:49:42the other half is content to watch did you dance with anyone in boston are you asking me about my
00:49:54romantic history we are in a romantic park people dancing it seemed like a natural segue
00:50:03i've had a few long-term relationships i'm not in one right now which will tell you how the previous
00:50:09ones went your choice or theirs mutual mostly i traveled a lot for my job always in a different
00:50:17city for months at a time makes it difficult to stay connected to someone
00:50:25does it get lonely yeah occasionally it also makes it exponentially easier
00:50:31i don't remember you liking things easy ha what about you my romantic history yeah
00:50:43i was with someone for a couple of years when i lived in mexico city we worked together
00:50:49she wouldn't have moved to a ranch she loved her fancy shoes too much the suits i don't think she
00:50:56would have given them up well she should because these boots are much more comfortable do you want
00:51:02to give them a rest yeah did we ever dance together i'm sure we have although you were pretty busy
00:51:20playing that old guitar you still have it yes i'm a bit rusty i need to practice how very gaucho of you
00:51:37is it okay to say that i've missed you
00:51:44only if it's okay for me to say that i've missed you too
00:51:50when i got to mexico city i almost came back a dozen times i actually even wrote you a letter
00:52:02did you send it ground because 15 years later i still haven't gone it
00:52:11i never sent it
00:52:15why not
00:52:16i thought you wouldn't answer
00:52:27well for the record i would have
00:52:33you would
00:52:38oh oh
00:52:39oh
00:52:42oh um it's belinda antonio wants us back at the office
00:52:47okay
00:52:48yep okay
00:52:53i'll see like you
00:52:54hey what's going on
00:52:57campaneros lawyers got back to me to avoid a lawsuit they're willing to forgive the law
00:53:02just like that if you agree to sell them the ranch and this is their final offer
00:53:12this is less than what i offered
00:53:13a lot less
00:53:15it's not even close to what the land is worth
00:53:17i know and so do they but if you don't accept it they will press the issue of the loan and
00:53:24you'll get nothing i'm sorry guys
00:53:36may i join you andres yes of course
00:53:42wow you're up early yeah i couldn't sleep
00:53:46you
00:53:47well over the years i've been here i've tried to find a way to make horses and cattle sleep till late
00:53:53but they're set on their ways
00:53:55yeah they can't be stubborn
00:53:57i'll have a talk with them
00:53:58i appreciate that
00:54:01so diego tells me you were thinking about retiring
00:54:05diego should learn to keep his big mouth shut
00:54:07that was mine to tell you i apologize
00:54:09no no there's no need to it seems as though it's moot at this point anyway once we sell the ranch to campanero
00:54:22i'm gonna miss it here
00:54:25i was born on this ranch raised my family on this ranch
00:54:29you put up with me every summer on this ranch
00:54:31when i said family i was including you
00:54:33i'm sorry i messed everything up oh no this is not your fault
00:54:40and even if it was i would forgive you just like i forgave you for sinking my truck in the river
00:54:47diego was driving but it was your idea
00:54:52i was joking and besides he didn't have to listen to me oh of course he did
00:54:57you would have driven that truck off a cliff had you asked
00:55:04i guess i was bad influence
00:55:06oh no you were good influence
00:55:10you always made him
00:55:15you connected him to the ground
00:55:17i suspect that's why he's back here
00:55:20i always thought it was this place that gave him that feeling
00:55:23and now we're losing it
00:55:28i should have trusted him
00:55:30and he should have trusted you
00:55:32but he is like the horses and the cattle
00:55:35very stubborn
00:55:38but don't worry i'll have a talk with him
00:55:42i appreciate that
00:55:53hey hey
00:55:57that was the papers from the bank
00:56:00they are
00:56:03did you sign them
00:56:05no we have until friday at five
00:56:08i told belinda we should wait till last minute
00:56:13you're hoping to get a brilliant idea so you don't have to sign them
00:56:16no i just want to hold off as long as possible just to be difficult
00:56:19you're good at that thank you
00:56:24are you uh leading the horseback ride today
00:56:26yes uh where you have the gaucho camping trip

00:56:51just to be difficult
00:56:52got it all right i'll see you later
00:56:58you're going camping with him with him and a dozen tourists let's not make it a thing
00:57:11but i think it is a thing are you and antonio a thing oh we're not a thing
00:57:15well then we're not a thing okay i need to set the table yourself
00:57:20antonio is coming over
00:57:23he wants to review the contracts before we sign them
00:57:26mm-hmm
00:57:28antonio and i are not a thing
00:57:30neither are diego and me
00:57:33have fun camping have fun at dinner
00:57:45something that i think i also belong to you
00:58:03hey get off your phone
00:58:09it wasn't business i swear it's just dumb
00:58:11um i was uh looking at flights to iguazu
00:58:17oh when are you leaving
00:58:20well if we sign the papers on friday then
00:58:24sometime next week
00:58:25oh
00:58:27didn't your abuela used to tell a story about the legend of iguazu
00:58:31you remember that yeah well i remember there's a story just not exactly what the story is
00:58:36yeah the legend of the iguazu falls
00:58:41there once was a beautiful girl naipi who lived in a village by the iguazu river
00:58:49she was so beautiful that a god wanted to marry her
00:58:53not realizing that she was in love with a mortal
00:58:58tarua
00:58:59a great and noble warrior i remember that yes
00:59:02yes so to escape the marriage tarua and naipi fled in a canoe down the river
00:59:11enraged the god decided to slice the river in two separating the lovers and creating the false
00:59:21turning naipi into a rock and tarua into a palm tree on the other side
00:59:27so they can see each other but never touch
00:59:30exactly
00:59:32but one day a rainbow appeared a rainbow that's still there today linking rock to tree
00:59:43bridging love for eternity
00:59:49do i sense dissatisfaction with the myth
00:59:52just why does every love story have to be about two people who can't be together
01:00:01well because if they could be together there would be no story
01:00:05do you know that letter i wrote for what it's worth i wish
01:00:33i'd sent it
01:00:38do you think it would have changed anything
01:00:42i guess we'll never know
01:00:48do you still have it
01:00:52i don't think so
01:01:03how was camping
01:01:08it was good
01:01:10that's all i get
01:01:11i was dinner with antonio
01:01:13it was good
01:01:15what are you working on
01:01:18plan b
01:01:19or c maybe d i'm not sure what we're up to now
01:01:22i don't understand
01:01:25well the problem we have is money
01:01:27plain and simple
01:01:30even if diego invested we still don't have enough to pay off the loan and keep the ranch afloat
01:01:36all right
01:01:37so
01:01:39so we need another investor
01:01:42okay i have one hail mary
01:01:45kevin murphy
01:01:45we used to work together when i got fired he knew who was really at fault but never came forward
01:01:51he opened his own private equity firm i'm hoping that he'll have mercy on us
01:01:55and what if he doesn't if he doesn't then we have no choice we have to sell to campanaro
01:02:03i don't know
01:02:05i'm sorry

01:02:22my half of what campanaro is offering it's not going to be enough

01:10:54We used to sing that all the time by the campfire when we were kids.
01:10:57You know, we just need to turn every conversation into a song.
01:11:00Oh, no, no.
01:11:01We all heard Andre singing.
01:11:03Oh, we always sing together, honey.
01:11:05I know.
01:11:06So, Diego, now that you own the ranch, why don't you tell us all your grand plan for
01:11:11it?
01:11:12I don't know about grand, but the first thing I want to do is expand the ranch house
01:11:18so we can host overnight guests.
01:11:20Oh, well, that'll be great for the sunrise trail rides.
01:11:23Yeah.
01:11:24I love this song.
01:11:27Do you remember?
01:11:28We used to sing it by the river.
01:11:31Yeah.
01:11:32Yeah.
01:11:33Yeah.
01:11:34We used to sing it in the sun.
01:11:35Yeah.
01:11:36Yeah.
01:11:37Yeah.
01:11:38Yeah.
01:11:39We used to sing it.
01:11:40Yeah.
01:11:41Yeah.
01:11:42Yeah.
01:11:43We used to sing it by the night, but the night is a big one.
01:11:46de mi largo caminar.
01:11:51Le canto porque ya sabe
01:11:55de mi largo caminar.
01:12:00Mayunita tucumana,
01:12:04tamborcito calchaquí,
01:12:09compañera de los gauchos
01:12:13en las sendas del Tafí.
01:12:18Compañera de los gauchos
01:12:22en las sendas del Tafí.
01:12:26He perdido las cerrazones
01:12:31y sabe mi vida y por donde andaré.
01:12:35Más cuando salga la luz
01:12:38No, no, no.
01:12:41No, no, no.
01:12:43Just, um, it's been a long day.
01:12:45Was it my singing?
01:12:46No.
01:12:47No, I loved it.
01:12:49I loved all of it.
01:12:51This is, um,
01:12:54this is my solid ground.
01:12:57My family.
01:12:59What are you saying?
01:13:02I-I don't know if I want to let go of this place.
01:13:08You don't want to say it?
01:13:12What if?
01:13:13What if?
01:13:14You can still buy out Belinda,
01:13:17but then you and I could be partners?
01:13:22I-I know that I don't know much about the gaucho experience,
01:13:26but I know a lot about business,
01:13:28and-and I think that we could be a good team.
01:13:33Do you want to stay?
01:13:35Do you want to stay?
01:13:39Well, not full time.
01:13:42I-I-the job back home would get me very busy,
01:13:44but I can still provide value.
01:13:46I can-I can help with business plans,
01:13:50and figure out ways to save money,
01:13:52and maximize synergies and-
01:13:54I'm back in Boston.
01:13:56Yeah.
01:13:58I mean, I would come visit.
01:14:01I can even work remotely.
01:14:03It's only an hour difference,
01:14:04and I can spend summers here.
01:14:09What do you think?
01:14:13No.
01:14:15No.
01:14:17I'm sorry, Odin.
01:14:20I don't want a partner,
01:14:22and I'd rather do it myself.
01:14:25Yeah.
01:14:26Yeah.
01:14:27No, of course.
01:14:28I-I understand.
01:14:29It was just an idea.
01:14:31It probably would not have worked anyway.
01:14:36I will sign the papers in the morning,
01:14:38and then head to the airport.
01:14:42Yeah.
01:14:47Come.
01:14:48Yeah.
01:14:49Yeah, I'll-I'll be right there.
01:14:50Okay.
01:14:52I think I'm ready to-
01:14:54Okay.
01:14:55I think I'm ready to-
01:14:56What did you do?
01:14:57I made some snacks for the plane right home.
01:14:59Pastelitos, alfajores, arrallado,
01:15:00Okay, I think I'm ready to...
01:15:21What did you do?
01:15:23I made some snacks for the Plain Bright Home.
01:15:26Pastelitos, alfajores, arrollado y churros de dulce de leche.
01:15:30And the flan is in the outlet.
01:15:32Belle, I only have the one suitcase.
01:15:36You can borrow one of mine.
01:15:38Belle, you are kind and generous and more than a little loca.
01:15:45And I love you.
01:15:52Stop, you're gonna make me cry.
01:15:54No, you're right, you're right. No crying.
01:15:56In the business strategy world, we call this a net positive outcome.
01:16:01Take the win.
01:16:03Okay.
01:16:04But you will come back to visit?
01:16:06Yes, I will.

01:19:31Let's go.
01:20:01Let's go.
01:20:31Let's go.
01:20:33I didn't want to come by myself.
01:20:36Oh, and, um, I wanted to deliver this in person, finally.
01:20:43Before you open it, it's in Spanish.
01:20:48Well, then I guess you'll have to translate.
01:20:51I...
01:20:52Come home.
01:21:03That's a long letter to say just that.
01:21:08I paraphrased.
01:21:10You're the one that left.
01:21:15I wanted to stay.
01:21:17I didn't think you would.
01:21:22Every time you left, it broke my heart.
01:21:26And I was young, I was too proud, too scared to tell you how I really felt.
01:21:34But now...
01:21:35I'm not gonna make that mistake again.
01:21:39Come home.
01:21:41I thought you didn't want a partner.
01:21:44I thought I had to do it alone, to be strong.
01:21:49But I realized that I know that it would be stronger if we would be doing it together.
01:21:55And, you know, not every love story has to be about two people who can't be together.
01:22:01Some stories are about us.
01:22:09I love you.
01:22:14And I have loved you since the day we met.
01:22:31And the other day we went to go.
01:22:32They wantù did that same building.
01:22:46How do you gust the sound of my mind, dear?
01:22:49And the rest of it.
01:22:52How much сложно is it?
01:22:55What do you want?
01:22:56He can't move his head around.
01:22:58Come on, Gaucho.
01:23:16We have a sunrise trail to lead.
01:23:20Yeah.
01:23:21Let's go.
01:23:22Let's go.
01:23:28Let's go.
01:23:58Let's go.
