All he wants to do is turn up
the dregs of the past.

1:03:07
Like the ragmen in the garbage heaps.
Yes, ma'am.

1:03:12
Something must be done,
Senen...

1:03:17
to stop Don Rodrigo
hounding me.

1:03:21
What I want...
1:03:25
is to keep him away from me...
1:03:29
from my daughters...
1:03:32
and, if possible...
1:03:37
never to see him again.

Pio is a name of little character,
don't you think?

1:03:49
Pio, Pio...
1:03:52
But it suits you.
It's a good name for you.

1:03:56
And then, as it's such
a short name, you save time.

1:04:01
Pio-- and that's it.
1:04:04
Which isn't the case
with Nebuchadnezzar, for example.

1:04:09
Have you read ''Life Is A Dream,''
Coronado?

1:04:13
Several times, your lordship.
1:04:16
And I've seen it performed too...
1:04:19
because I should tell you that
I was very fond ofthe theater.

1:04:25
-What do you think of it?
-A great play, your lordship.

1:04:29
Calderon reflects accurately
on the mystery of life.

1:04:35
And in some parts I see myself
very well reflected.

1:04:39
For example, in...
1:04:41
''Oh, how wretched I am,
how unhappy.

1:04:45
I yearn to know
why you treat me like this.''

1:04:51
''Oh, how wretched I am.''
I do like that, your lordship.

1:04:56
I don't like it at all, Pio.
1:04:59
I think it's a bore.
