Movie quotes

  • (..) I'll be happy. You Latin boys are so cheeky. Do you know that? - Are you gonna show up? - I might, if you're lucky. Oh, no. Go and have a shower. You stink. It's time for a toast, I think. To your new home, may all your ups and downs be in the bedroom. Mom! You might want to be careful, Santi. (..)
