Jenni: where is your mom? Where is rosie, mom?

What do you mean you don't know? Rosa: she's always switching boyfriends.

Right now i don't know where she is or with who. I've lost count already.

Jenni: and she leaves the girl just like that? Rosa: the only thing she cares about is partying.

She doesn't care about the girl. Jenni: ♪ baby don't leave me ♪ well, dad, did you like how i sang in english?

Don pedro: i don't know why you try so hard to be like a gringa. Do you want to be like jlo or those ladies?

That's not your audience, sweetie. Don't ' try to appear what you're not.

Jenni: ladies. Chris.

He's my personal assistant. Let's go!

Babies! Kids!

Where are you, babies? >> it was chris, ma'am.

>> you know that we don't ask who hires us. We come to do our job and that's it.

Jacob: i don't know, my love, but this gives me a bad feeling. >> don't worry.

Well, guys, we're here. Jacob: jenni, what if they're narcos?

Jenni: what i said was that mariana is where she is because of her influences and not her talents. >> yes, well, that.

I want to interview you for "el gordo y la flaca" so you can clear that up via satellite. >> besides, that can distract the issue on your divorce.

Jenni: so i don't like people putting words in my mouth that i never said. >> i know.

>> they took you off. Jenni: what?

>> they just took you off the air, jenni. Jenni: why?

>> i don't know, let me find out. >> they're making fun of you here on the show.

Jenni: i'm going to go out for a moment. >> at this hour?

Look how tired you are. Tomorrow morning everything will be fixed.

Fernando: well... I relapsed.

After being clean for months i relapsed. I got my bicycle and i went from hollywood to east l.

A. To buy crystal.

The sensation of having it in my hands is... The effect only lasted for a few hours.

Not enough. It's never enough.

Sometimes i blame my girlfriend for what happens to me. I feel that everything i do is for her.

I don't know, i become insecure. She's changing, she's becoming a different person, i don't know, she's driving me crazy.

Sometimes i do a lot of stupid things because at first it feels good, but... In the end i end up regretting it.

I know it's not anyone's fault. Each person makes their own decisions.

You know? I don't know, sometimes i think that...

That everything i'm doing is because i want to lose her. I don't know.

>> one feels blessed by god, right? >> what, man?

>> well, here playing with you. >> for real.

We don't even have time or patience, i use it all on my kids. >> yes.

We heard that your kid's mom works a lot. She even works more than you.

What does it feel like to appear on tv for your big talent of having your wife take care of you? >> he even receives prizes.

I wish i was that lucky. Juan: stop.

Everyone thinks that. >> well, you are, right?

Juan: as if it were that easy. >> that's enough.

>> see you tomorrow at six. Be on time.

I have a good job for cinco. There's lots of money.

Without any buts. Juan: cinco no longer exists.

He's forgotten. >> you wouldn't do anything for your kids?

Juan: i'd do anything for my kids. >> that lady of yours has a lot of people who work for her.

I'm sure she's going to get tired of you and kick you out so think about it. Eric: sold out, man.

I'm telling you, everyone is crazy about her. Listen.

Jenni: are you having a good time? The next song is a new song dedicated to all those guys who are leeches.

They suck. You and i know what i can give.

The doubt is in what you can give me. >> where?

Chiquis: we're with jenni rivera. We're her kids.

>> where are your passes? Chiquis: i don't have them, but if you let me pass-- >> you can't pass.

Eric: hey, hey, hey. They're ms.

Rivera's kids, let them pass. Jenni: go to the truck.

Be careful. Let's go.

Thank you. Let's go, sweetie.

>> mom, he helped us. Jenni: wait for me, okay?

Hey, you, troublemaker. Eric: hey.

Jenni: my kids told me what you did for them. Eric: oh, it was nothing.

Jenni: how can i pay you? Eric: really, it was nothing.

Jenni: no, tell me, how can i pay you? Eric: jenni, it was nothing.

Jenni: how about you call gabo my representative and tell him about those presentations you wanted to do? Eric: oh, okay.

Jenni: yes? Eric: yes.

Jenni: write down his number. Call it.

Eric: right now? Jenni: yes, man, call.

Eric: okay. Jenni: that was so easy.

You're very innocent, troublemaker. Thank you.

Chiquis: hello? Yes, i want to make a reservation for dolores m.

Alandrina. Yes.

Thank you. Jenni: eric: what are you doing, beautiful?

Do you have a photo shoot? Jenni: it's for a studio here in calabasas.

Eric: really? I live around there, what a coincidence.

Are you following me? Jenni: you wish.

But if you're so close why don't you come talk to me in person? My room is under the name dolores m.

Alandrina. What do you say?

Eric: i'd love to, beautiful, but i'm tired and i have to wake up early. So i guess i'll see you around?

Jenni: okay. Oh, jenni.

Gigi: what's wrong, jenni? You don't look excited.

Jenni: i miss pelon, friend. I swear that i thought that he was the one.

That the search was over. I was very happy with him, but now...

Gigi: now you're not sure? That happens, believe me.

Especially when they are 10 years younger than you. Jenni: it's not that.

Or it is, i don't know. The point is that the arguments and the jealousy have started and believe me, gigi, that as hard as i try the situation doesn't change.

Gigi: oh, sweetie. Don't worry.

Another one will come. Jenni: i'm going to make a call, okay?

Gigi: okay. Jenni: hey.

How are you? Fernando: i thought you weren't going to talk to me again.

Jenni: how could you think that, i even miss you. Fernando: i swear that i'm trying to change my life.

And forgive me, i don't want the same thing to happen like last time. Jenni: and you'll accomplish that, okay?

I'm sure about that. Fernando: where are you?

Jenni: about to be jenni montana. If only you were here, elvira, because all of this was your idea.

Fernando: hopefully i was there, montana, to see you shoot many communists. Too bad i can't be close to you when you're a superstar.

Jenni: i'm not a superstar yet. Fernando: that's what you think.

Jenni: i have to go. I'll be back at night.

Fernando: good luck. Jenni: bye.

Doctor: mr. Salgado.

Mr. Salgado.

Your mother's cancer is very advanced. Although there's still other options to treat it.

But the situation could be worse. Pete: sorry.

If it's necessary to take my mom to another hospital, maybe a specialized clinic, whatever is necessary, i'll do it. I don't care how much it costs.

Jenni: oh, i swear that if i hear another lady talking about her diet i'm going to punch her. Starting with me.

Pete: you look pretty, gangster. It's a good idea.

Jenni: and where were you? Surely with a hoochie not authorized by me and we're here waiting for you.

Pete: i took michael his video game. He was at home the other day and nobody was waiting for me.

Jenni: thank you. He's the one who needs a paternal figure, peter.

Pete: manager and babysitter. Jenni: sometimes i don't know what to do.

I swear that i'd like to be with my children more, but i also know that if i stop doing this i won't be able to give them everything they need. Pete: i know, i know.

How about we hurry. It's very late and we better hurry.

Jenni: okay, but we'll talk about this later. Peter: of course.

By the way, what happened with the intellectual author of jenni montana? Jenni: you want to play with me?

You want to play with jenni montana? Say hello to my little friend.

Do you want to have dinner with me? Yes.

Eric: i think it's time for the question. I guess...

Jenni: what question? Eric: are you dating someone?

Who is pelon? Jenni: he's someone, yes.

I won't deny it. Are you dating anyone?

Eric: i had something, a very long story, but i think it's over now. Jenni: okay.

Look, i don't know what i have with pelon. After my divorce i wanted to handle things calmly, but it seems like that's not my thing.

Eric: it's also complicated for me. The one who said that love lasted a long time-- jenni: lied.

Eric: cheers to that. Jenni: cheers.

>> jenni, will you give me your autograph? Jenni: yes, guys, calm down.

One by one. Here it goes.

>> you're very pretty. Jenni: oh, you're very handsome.

>> thank you. For martin.

Jenni: for martin. Thank you.

Sorry. Eric: you never get tired of that?

Jenni: of my fans? No, never.

Cheers. Eric: cheers.

Jenni: to this night. Eric: to this night.

Okay. Jenni: okay.

Oh. What was that?

Eric: what? I can't or what?

Jenni: yes, you can. They're waiting for me at home, okay?

Eric: okay. Will i see you soon?

Jenni: yes. Bye.

Eric: be careful. Jenni: bye, troublemaker.

Fernando: i don't want what we have to be ruined. I swear that i'm trying.

I try so hard. It's not easy.

It's not easy that jenni rivera is my girl. Jenni: ferny, you know that i love you, okay?

I opened my home and life to you. But i can't let you cause these scenes, pelon.

Fernando: it won't happen again. Jenni: and the drugs?

Fernando: i'm clean, baby. Jenni: really?

Fernando: yeah. Jenni: oh, pelon.

Fernando: jenni: what's wrong, my love? Fernando: the gun.

Where is the gun? Jenni: what gun, pelon?

What are you talking about? Fernando: you hid the gun.

You hid the gun! You want me to get killed.

Jenni: ferny, calm down. What's wrong, baby?

Fernando: your brothers... Jenni: what?

Fernando: are waiting for me to go to sleep to kill me. Jenni: ferny, my brothers aren't downstairs.

Fernando: your brothers are downstairs. Jenni: no one is downstairs!

Fernando: they're hiding! Jenni: no!

Hey, shh. Hey.

There's no one downstairs, pelon. Okay?

I wouldn't let anyone hurt you. Okay, baby?

Trust me. Fernando: really?

Jenni: yes, really, i swear. Fernando: are you going to stay here with me without turning the light off?

Jenni: yes. I'm going to stay here without turning off the light, okay?

I won't turn it off. Okay?

I won't let anyone hurt you. Trust me, baby.

Come, pelon, lay down. Trust me.

Calm down. No one will hurt you.

Shh. Calm down.

Jenni: what happened last night? Fernando: i don't know.

Jenni: what do you mean you don't know, ferny? Why would they come kill you?

Who wants to kill you, pelon? Fernando: i don't know.

Jenni: you lied to me. You're doing crystal again, right?

Those paranoia attacks only happen to people who do drugs. That's what my friend's cousin told me.

I need time away from you. Fernando: but-- jenni: but nothing.

My kid's safety and mine come first and i promised myself not to be in a relationship like this again. Fernando: i understand.

Jenni: you mean everything to me, okay? I love you, pelon.

But i can't. Rosie: shake it, jenni!

Shake it, shake it! Shake it, shake it.

Who are you looking for? Jenni: a special friend who was going to come.

Rosie: no, no, forget about it. The choreography.

Jenni: no. Rosie: no, please.

Do the choreography. Jenni: ready?

Rosie: here we go and... Both: i love you!

Rosie: hey! What are you doing here?

I'm dancing with my sister. Jenni: rosie, calm down, he's with me, okay?

Rosie: what do you mean he's with you? I thought you and i were alone out like sisters.

You promised me. Jenni: shut up.

Eric, my sister rosie. Eric: hi.

Rosie: whatever. I don't understand why you brought him here.

Go and get more drinks. Jenni: calm down, rosie.

Calm down. Ignore her, please, she's drunk.

Rosie: no, what? Am i supposed to be the third wheel all night?

Jenni: no, there are guys that you can hit on. There, there, look.

Rosie: no, can you make him leave? He's scaring away all the guys.

Eric: i'm leaving. I don't want to be a problem.

Rosie: bye. Jenni: rosie.

Rosie: what? Eric: see you later.

Rosie: okay, bye. Challenge fulfilled.

He's gone! Good-bye!

Jenni: why did you do that, rosie? Rosie: what?

What is that guy doing here, who is he? Jenni: what do you care?

Rosie: oh, my god, you don't waste time, do you? Jenni: oh, look who's talking.

Rosie: seriously? I don't understand why he has to be at our party.

This is our party. Jenni: shut up, rosie.

You ruined my night. Rosie: sisters party!

Oh, my god. Jenni!

Eric: who's there? Who's there?

Jenni: answer your phone, man. Eric: wait, wait, wait.

How did you get inside, woman? Jenni: what do you mean how?

I hopped the fence. Eric: what?

Jenni: you wouldn't answer. What if you fell in the bathtub and i didn't know?

Eric: let's see, wait. You drove more than an hour from the valley all the way here, you bought some beers and you jumped the fence to come see me?

Jenni: i was going to buy the beers either way. Don't feel so important.

Eric: you really are crazy. Jenni: i'm not crazy.

I'm jenni rivera. Eric: hey.

What time is it? Why are you leaving?

Jenni: i have lots of things to do. You troublemaker.

Eric: but it's dawn. Why don't you and your beautiful legs come play a little more?

Jenni: no. It's my birthday party and i still need lots of things.

Eric: is it a quinceañera or what? Jenni: no, i wish, i was pregnant at 15.

Today is just my party, but i'm going to do everything. I still have to get the cake, the drinks, the snacks, the dj, security...

Eric: one of my homies can help you with security. He's a big boy and he's pretty good.

Actually, he's security at the radio station. Jenni: okay, call your friend and come with him.

But answer your phone. Bye, baby.

Eric: rosa: hey, the cakes over here, to the kitchen. Rosie: no, thank you.

Hey! Eric: i don't want problems.

Your sister invited me to the party. Rosie: i know, i know.

Listen, sorry about yesterday. I behaved badly.

Let's say that the tequila was talking for me, not me. Eric: no problem.

Look, he is my friend john and he's going to help with security. Rosie: hello.

Rosie. Why don't you go get jenni?

She loves birthday surprises. Eric: oh, yes.

Where is she? Rosie: she's upstairs, second door to the right.

Eric: okay, thank you. See you later.

Rosie: you're at home. It's eric.

Oh, jenni. Jenni: it makes me very happy that you came, juan.

The kids miss you. Juan: and i miss you guys.

Jenni: did you get a job yet? Juan: don't worry.

Jenni: hi, eric. Eric: sorry, i see that you're busy.

I came to the wrong party. Jenni: wait for me a second.

Eric! Eric, wait, man!

Eric: i'm an imbecile! Jenni: eric!

Eric, wait, please. Eric: no, it's not right.

I don't want to be where i'm not wanted. Jenni: what are you talking about?

What are you talking about? What are you talking about?

Eric: have a good time. Jenni: he's my ex!

He's my ex! Eric: yeah, sure.

Have a good time. Jenni: you're not going anywhere.

Your work is disappointing me. Pete: i wasn't the one who insulted univision.

Jenni: oh, please. That's in the past.

Pete: no, it's not in the past. You messed with the big guys and we need television.

Now we have an enemy. This is all we can do.

Jenni: and what do you suggest? Pete: i already told you, a public apology in newspapers, in the press.

A public apology and everything is fixed. Jenni: no, pete.

Happy, happy because it's been a wonderful concert with a pretty, beautiful public. I'm the first woman who sings with a band at this theatre!

>> look, madam! What do you want to tell your fans?

Jenni: i want to tell you that we hit the record of alcohol sales! All: >> baby!

Oh, i love you! Jenni: i love you.

All: jenni: i love you, i love you. Pete: jenni rivera, the one and only!

All: yeah! Jenni: hi, good morning.

First of all, thank you all very much for being here. I want you to know that the more people find out about it the better.

So, if you're listening to us, please, tell your neighbor, your friend or whoever you want, okay? A week ago, i met this prince, this little angel who's just two years old and emanuel and his family need us today.

So, i want to ask all my people from la to please join this auction and i want you to know that every cent you give us will be destined for this beautiful prince's operation who's really smiling and playful. I, jenni rivera, will put some jewelry for our beautiful queens.

And for my kings... This really cool harley!

All: gabo: you'll see she'll love it. She'll be happy, delighted.

You'll see. Yes.

Jenni: i've been looking for you. Where are you?

Gabo: who's a gun? Jenni: i am, dear.

Gabo: no, no, no. Who's a gun, a king, a genius?

Jenni: oh, come on, gabo, don't play the fool, what are you up to? Gabo: guess who has just got you to sing in one of the best stockades.

Jenni: one of the best? Gabo: we're going to guadalajara!

All méxico will be there. The only ones who can sing there are vicente fernández, joan sebastian and jenni rivera!

Jenni: oh, gabo, you're so cool, darling! Both: gabo: you've finally stopped starving, dear.

>> hi. Fernando: hey, j, the man's supposed to pay, not his woman.

Jenni: oh, bald, please, stop saying that, dear. Fernando: yes, but-- i don't like that you pay for my rehab.

Jenni: this is not about money. Okay?

It's about your health, about you being okay, bald. Fernando: no, wait, wait, wait.

Jenni: what's up, bald? Fernando: i--i--i can do it myself, okay?

I don't need this clinic. I can be clean alone.

Really. Jenni: come on, we've already talked about it.

Okay? Fernando: yes, but-- but i can stay with my mom and go to every session and-- i'll be fine, really.

Jenni: you have to accept when you need help. And you need it now.

Thank you. You'll be fine, bald.

Fernando: hey, j! You have to accept when you need help too.

Radio: listen, listen, pay attention! The nominees for the awards of the radio 2005 this year are los tigres del norte, lupillo rivera, los tucanes, la tijuana and, as the feminine artist of the year, jenni rivera!

Jenni: oh, thank you, god! Thank you for so many blessings!

Gabo: congratulations, darling. We did it.

Jenni: oh, my pretty gabo, dear, i feel my heart is pumping out of my chest. Gabo: no, no, no.

We're waiting for you here to go to méxico. Relax.

We'll celebrate here, okay? Jenni: okay.

Bye! >> i just wanted you to know so that you can be prepared for what's coming, juan.

Juan: isn't there anything you can do? >> i've already used up all my resources at the court.

The most probable thing-- juan: kids, come on, it's time to have a snack, come on. Leave your toys there.

Come on, darling. Come on, dad has to talk seriously.

Sit down. Eat it up.

Serve some milk to your brother, okay? And don't make it such a mess because i'll have to clean it later.

Sit down. Here you are.

>> the most probable thing it that you don't get the child support. Juan: god.

>> haven't you saved anything? Jenni has given you a lot of money.

Juan: save? The ones who were born without a single peso don't know what that word means.

It's like chinese to me. >> well, look, all this can take a long time.

This trial can go on like this, this and this for years. Maybe the best option is to find another solution.

Juan: yes. And you don't say anything if you don't have a good idea in mind.

>> look. Maybe you should look for an arrangement with jenni out of court.

It can be good for your relationship. It's less stressful.

And it's also good financially. Juan: what matters is that my children are fine.

And if it's good for them, it's good for all of us. >> oh, they'll be fine.

They'll be fine. Jenni: thank you very much!

Public: jenni: you really liked it, didn't you, guys? >> now we can say you're in the big leagues!

You're respectable now. Jenni: a respectable woman, man.

>> and what a hot woman. Jenni: the hottest woman!

Gabo: you can see they did like it. Here you are.

27. Jenni: 27?

Gabo: count them. Jenni: no, they were 30, gabo.

Gabo: and the tithing for security? Jenni: tithing?

What's that? Gabo: 10 percent is for "la maña".

That's how they handle here. I know it sounds bad, but-- don't worry.

Jenni: no. "la maña", no.

I haven't sung for 4 hours for them, okay? This money is for my children.

Gabo: listen, how can i explain it to you? Things work like this here.

We're not in america here. Things are different here.

Or how do you think i got to get these stockades of the major leagues? Jenni: neither in america, in your ranch, in china or anywhere will i give a cent of my money to drug traffickers.

Understood? Gabo: wait, wait, easy, wait.

Jenni: wait? This isn't negotiable, gabo!

No "maña", there's no drug trafficking, there's no money, there's nothing! I don't work like this!

Okay? Gabo: do you want to stop working in méxico?

Because things are like this here. You know?

Miracle's not in the constitution. Everybody does it.

Jenni: listen, i don't give okay? I'm not everybody.

Jenni rivera's not everybody, dear. And i don't do that.

Otherwise, i'll report them. End of story.

>> look, darling, nobody will give us that amount of money anywhere else. Things work like this here.

And gabo's right. This is business.

You win, everybody wins and they even take care of us. Jenni: okay.

Enough. Okay?

I mean it. I won't talk about it again.

Solve this, gabo. That's what i pay you for.

It's your job. Gabo: okay.

I'll see what i can do. I'm just telling you to be careful.

Pete: let me tell you something. I can assure you that jenni rivera is a wonderful singer.

She's very complete. She's destined to become an international star, not only latin, international.

>> okay, pete, but why us? Why do you think we're interested in your artist?

Pete: look, look, please. Read this brochure.

She's the first latin artist with a show of regional mexican music who performed at the kodak theatre and--and all the tickets were sold out. Sold out!

Besides, there was a record of alcohol sales. >> that's good.

Pete: and--and she's succeeding really fast thanks to the impacts the radio has. That's a big approach with fans.

>> pete, pete, we like jenni. We really do.

We see a lot of potential in her. >> so--so, that means you're interested-- are you interested?

>> yeah, we are. Pete: let me tell you something.

In only two years, she'll get to the moon. >> exactly.

She's a star, but she's not up there yet. You have to understand that.

She's still going up. Pete: but she can do it.

She really can do it. She has-- >> we know that.

That's why we're talking about jenni now, but we think more people should know her music. Maybe she should perform in places with more prestige.

Maybe--maybe a tour. A tour around all casinos of america, you know?

All over america. Pete: i--i got it, i got it.

Let's do it this way. Let's do it that way, but-- first, we see how that works and then we talk again.

I want to tell you. There are a lot of artists in the usa, but there's only one jenni.

One and only! >> pete: and she's the best.

>> okay. Pete: let's eat something.

>> okay. Pete: tequila?

Do you like tequila? Juan: jenni: hi, babies!

Mom's here! Where are you, sweethearts?

Child: mommy! Jenni: oh, my prince.

Oh. >> i missed you, mom.

Jenni: you missed me? Juan: they missed you very much.

They've been asking about you all day long. Jenni: but mom's here now.

Will you bring me a slice? Come, my prince, the most beautiful one, the man of this house.

>> jenni: come here. Oh, it looks delicious, doesn't it?

Next time you're coming with me, okay? >> yes.

Juan: okay, i'm leaving now. I've been looking for my motorbike.

And i haven't found it. Where is it?

I need to sell it. Jenni: what are you talking about?

Juan: my motorbike. My harley.

Jenni: oh. The noisy big motorbike i bought you?

Juan: the noisy big motorbike i bought. Jenni: with my money.

Juan: whatever. Where is it?

Jenni: if you don't know, how can i know, juan? But i do recommend you, dear, to watch the news, you know?

Juan: yes. Take care, prince.

Both: bye, daddy. Juan: bye, honey.

Bye, jenni. You're welcome.

Jenni: bye. Bye.

It looks so delicious. Chill out, my children.

Don't you think it's a bit late to be playing here? >> mom, you're never with us and we can never show you anything.

Jenni: on your face, jenni. >> what did you say, mom?

Jenni: nothing, i said nothing, princess. >> and we're wearing the costumes daddy gave us.

Jenni: wow. And you saved the world?

>> yes! And i shot her like that!

Jenni: what else did you do? >> and we turned into snoop dogs!

Jenni: oh, my god! >> jenni: next time you'll wash your mouth with soap, you know?

>> yes. Jenni: my children are the king and queen of the world!

They're the king and queen of france! Who are the king and queen of england?

Both: we are! Jenni: can i have a kiss from the king and queen?

Both: yes! >> >> look, look.

Jenni: oh, my god! Popcorn rain!

>> pete: hi, jenni, surprise. Jenni: hi, pete.

Both: jenni: whose birthday is it, dear? Pete: nobody's birthday.

It's your non-birthday. Jenni: oh, pete, but why do you bring me pizza?

I can't eat that although i love it. Last night i ate some and i almost threw it up.

Pete: listen to me. Listen very carefully.

Live nation wants you. They think you can make it.

They want to take you to a lot of important places of the usa, with prestige, so that you can meet a lot of people and you'll become an international artist soon. Do you understand me?

You'll be number one. Both: jenni: what is that pizza made of, pete?

Pete: cheese, cheese. Whatever.

Jenni: yeah! Give me five!

The one i like. Pete: what's the matter with you?

Focus. Focus.

And--and, please, be serious every now and then. Jenni: oh, come on, pete.

Don't go crazy on me, okay? Tell me what we have to do.

Pete: they want us to do some tours around the casinos all over the usa. Jenni: when?

Pete: now. Tomorrow if that's necessary.

Jenni: i can't. I have a lot of dates for stockades.

Pete: of course you can. Cancel the stockades.

Jenni: i can't cancel stockades. I won't ruin gabo's work.

Do you know how much i earn at the stockades? It's my babies' patrimony.

Come on, pete! Pete: you gotta be careful about it.

It's not good to be at stockades in méxico right now. No.

No more stockades. It's too dangerous.

Jenni: oh, well i like danger. And it follows you anyway, dear.

So-- pete: there's a lot of insecurity in mexico right now. Jenni: oh, pete, come on, imagine this.

Chente, joan, alejandro and jenni rivera there. I like how it sounds.

I like that. Okay?

Imagine that. Pete: you won't even think about it?

Won't you think about it? Jenni: no.

I can't, dear. Pete: you know what?

Do whatever you want. Swallow that pizza yourself.

Jenni: thank you. Pete: gabo: oh.

>> the tithing. Gabo: yes.

That's why i bought this. We have to take advantage of a good amount of money in this life.

Right? >> what are we going to do with jenni's problem?

Gabo: look, buddy, if we don't pay them, we'll go on having only silly performances. She'll win less, we'll win less and we'll never make it that way.

>> but she told you not to pay them. Gabo: yes.

And she also said she trusted in me to handle her performances because i'm the one who knows about this business. Right?

>> and how are you going to convince her? Gabo: i won't do it.

I'll take the risks. Buddy.

Yes, i'm just calling to confirm jenni rivera's performance on saturday. Hey.

Yes, buddy. I just wanted to ask you for a little favor.

I'll need you to give me two invoices. Let's say that i want one of them to be official, where the commission for the bad boys of the movie is already deducted.

And i want another one with the full payment which will be mine. Yes, buddy, because then she gets really crazy.

Let's hope she doesn't make a scandal and we don't end up all dead. Oh, buddy.

Thank you very much. Of course, sure, buddy.

Oh, god. >> what if jenni finds out?

Gabo: don't you want to go on being alive? Easy, buddy.

It's gonna be all right. >> you'll get into a big trouble.

Gabo: do you have a better idea? We sometimes have to make sacrifices to get ahead.

You'll see jenni will thank me one day. You'll see.

Rosy: chiquis. Let me help you-- chiquis: oh, get out of here!

Rosy: okay, i need three tickets. Chiquis: you're lucky if you can get one.

Go away. Rosy: why?

Chiquis: let me work. Let me work!

Rosy: can you tell her that--? Don pedro: rosy.

Calm down, dear. Rosy: okay.

Chiquis: okay. The list of the awards of the radio 2005.

I have a ticket for my grandma. Perfect.

Pete: hello, everybody! I've come for mikey!

Um--i'll take him with my kids. We're gonna play basketball with my children.

Chiquis: um-- i have another ticket for my grandpa. Pete: jenni gave me--gave me-- chiquis: one for uncle gus.

Pete: she gave me permission to-- chiquis: i have another one for tere. Tere: thank you.

Chiquis: uh-huh. One for rosy.

Rosy: thank you. Chiquis: and that's it, guys.

I don't have more. Pete: hey.

Chiquis: oh, hi, pete. I didn't see you coming.

What do you need? Pete: um, well, um--i've come for mikey and i take the advantage to get my tickets for the awards.

Chiquis: oh, i'm so sorry, but my mom hasn't even written you on the list. Pete: no, no, no.

It's not possible. Lupillo: by the way, pete, mikey has enough uncles to take him to all the sport clubs he wants to go.

Pete: oh, but i do it with pleasure. It's-- it is my pleasure.

Lupillo: really? Look, how can i explain it to you that--?

You don't need to come. Don't misunderstand me.

You understand me, don't you? Pete: yeah.

Yeah. I understand.

Well, nice to see you again. Rosy: bye, pete.

Pete: bye, rosy. Don pedro: you're carrying one.

Lupillo: cheers, dad. Pete's mom: what time is jenni coming on tv?

Pete: i--i don't know, mom. Pete's mom: i want to see when they give her the award.

Pete: i don't even know if she's going to win or not. I--i don't care.

The truth is i don't care. Pete's mom: and now why did you argue?

Pete: we didn't argue. Look, mom, i spend all day long working with jenni.

All day long. The truth is i don't want to come home and go on talking about jenni, jenni, jenni.

Okay? I--i'll bring a glass of water to give you your medicines.

Pete's mom: pete. Pete: breathe, breathe!

Breathe, mom. Mo--mo--mom!

Answer, answer. Breathe, breathe, breathe.

>> jenni rivera! Public: jenni: oh, my god!

Public: jenni! Jenni: thank you.

Thank you very much! Thank you!

Public: >> rosy: artist of the year! Jenni: oh, my god.

A big to all those who said the fat wouldn't make it. Just look at this!

Don pedro: a bit of tequila to celebrate. Jenni: daddy, don't, they'll tell you off if they catch you.

Don pedro: oh, this girl doesn't turn out so fierce as they say. Let's toast.

Rosa: the queen of long beach! Jenni: thank you, mommy.

Chiquis: the queen! Don pedro: cheers!

All: cheers! Pedro: long live the riveras!

All: doctor: mr. Salgado.

Pete: how's mom? She was perfectly fine yesterday and suddenly-- i don't--i don't know what happened.

Doctor: your mother's cancer has metastasis. Pete: metastasis?

Doctor: that means it spread. I'm so sorry, but i must tell you that the most probable thing is that she only has a few more days.

I know this is hard news to receive, but-- there's not much we can do. Pete: i know, i know.

I know. >> god.

It's you, right? Jenni: open the door!

>> come in, girl. Jenni: well done.

Shut up, baby. Calm down.

Uh-huh. Oh, yes.

That was hot, baby! >> it was good.

Jenni: why do you say it like that? >> because you get me confused.

Jenni: oh, god. I'm sorry.

>> oh, come here, crazy girl. Jenni: i like you.

>> i like you too. Jenni: no.

I like you, i really like you. What do you think?

>> you and me? I don't think it can work.

Jenni: don't say that. >> yes, i do.

We're so different. I can't consider you seriously.

I don't see you as-- my wife, you know? I think we should go on like this, without any commitments, right?

Jenni: >> jenni. Jenni, at least, get dressed.

Jenni: >> jenni: this is weird. Chiquis!

Chiquis! Chiquis: coming!

Jenni: some money is missing. Chiquis: no.

I haven't touched anything. Jenni: i haven't spent it either, darling.

I mean, i'm not sure, but-- chiquis: i'm sure that was what happened, mom. You've had your head who-knows-where lately.

Jenni: could be. Um--where's the money from the t-shirts at kodak?

That's what's missing. Chiquis: i don't know.

Yanalte was the one who dealt with that merchandise. Jenni: okay.

Can you fetch her, please? Chiquis: yanalte!

Jenni: well, chiquis, if that's you doing me the favor, i'll do it myself next time, you know? Thank you.

Yanalte: yes. Jenni, what's up?

Jenni: how much did we get from the t-shirts at kodak? Yanalte: kodak?

Jenni: yes. Yanalte: let me see.

You got 800 dollars. Jenni: wow.

Look. That's exactly what's missing.

Yanalte: missing? How?

Jenni: yes, missing, yanalte. That money is missing here, okay?

I can't find it anywhere! It isn't here.

Where is it? Yanalte: jenni.

Hasn't pete given it to you? Jenni: pete?

Yanalte: yes. Jenni: why pete?!

He wasn't in charge. You were!

Yanalte: oh, jenni. I don't know how to tell you this, but-- pete gave me his account number so that i could deposit it there.

Maybe he thought that-- jenni: what, yanalte? What?!

Yanalte: i trusted in him because you trust in him, honey. Chiquis: what?

Did pete steal it? Oh, god.

It's unbelievable that he thought we wouldn't realize. Jenni: chiquis.

You know what? Both of you, leave me alone, okay?

Get out of here. I said out!

Yanalte: okay. Pete: sorry if i'm late.

Jenni: where's my money? Pete: excuse me?

Which--money? Um--money?

Jenni: yes, money, pete. The money from the sale of the promotional articles at the show i host at the kodak theatre.

Remember now? Pete: i remember.

The kodak theatre. Jenni: yes.

Yanalte told me you had asked her to deposit it in your account. Pete: one moment.

Listen to me. Unfortunately, you were in méxico and we didn't have your account number.

So--so, i--i asked yanalte if she wanted to deposit the money in my account at that time and-- it was urgent. Jenni: uh-huh.

And why haven't you transferred it to me? I mean, it's strange that you haven't given me my money.

Pete: wait a moment. Are you accusing me?

Honestly, um-- i like people being direct. I don't like gossip.

Jenni: i just want to know why you haven't given me my money, pete. Okay?

Pete: i have a lot more things to think about in my life. I can't just think about your life's details or much less about only a few dollars!

You drive me crazy sometimes, woman. Jenni: perla: how was your day, jenni?

Jenni: oh, perlita, i only want to sleep for 20 hours, darling. Late payment with interests, okay?

Perla: thank you. Jenni: no.

Thank you, sweetie, for putting up with so much, okay? Go to sleep now.

It's late. Perla: don't worry.

After all, i've already missed the bus. I'll have to stay and sleep with my uncle who lives near here.

The girls are sleeping now. Jenni: okay.

Perla: see you tomorrow. Jenni: take care.

Perla: bye. Jenni: bye.

Hey, princess, why aren't you sleeping? You won't want to wake up then.

Come on. >> how was your day, mom?

Jenni: guess how much i earned. >> ten dollars?

Jenni: more. 100 dollars, sweetheart!

>> wow. I could even buy food and those pizza rolls you like so much.

>> can i eat one? Jenni: sure.

>> um--you should give it back to the shop and you can pay perlita with that money. Jenni: that's not necessary, darling.

I've already paid perlita. And i even have more to go to the park tomorrow and buy some ice ream.

Would you like that? >> yes.

Jenni: yes? Go and make one.

Hurry up. Pete: hello.

I'm still here! Jenni: you know what, pete?

I thought you'd understand what a few dollars mean for somebody who knows what it feels like to be starving. Pete: come on.

You're not starving now. I just forgot to transfer that.

I forgot it. This is not a crime!

Jenni, jenni. I don't know--i don't know why you react like this, why you get so angry with all this.

It's just about this damn money. Jenni: no, it's not about the damn money, pete!

It's about trust, okay?! Pete: so, you don't trust me?

You think i'm stealing from you? Let me tell you i have other things in my mind.

I have a life too! Jenni: what things, pete?

Tell me. What things?

Because you say and say you have things and things, but i don't know which ones! Tell me, buddy!

Which things?! Pete: forget it.

Jenni: see? That's how you want me to trust you?

Pete: i don't care if you believe me or not, if you trust me or not. I've already told you!

There are much more important things in our life. I can't just think about this.

And i'll tell you another thing. From now on, find a business manager because i don't want to go on working with you.

Jenni: are you leaving me? Listen to me carefully.

Okay? You can't come and quit in my house!

Pete: you are crazy. You are impossible!

You're a basket case! Have they ever told you that?

Jenni: all my life. Pete: you know what?

Think whatever you want. I'll transfer you the money as soon as i get home, but from now on, we're finished.

Jenni:
