1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,680
MESS WITH THE BULL

2
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:13,040
Once upon a time, in a small village on the edge of Seville, there lived a great matador

3
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:15,640
named Don Fernando.

4
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:21,040
No one far and wide for his bravery, his charm and of course his glorious mustache.

5
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:25,240
His son, little Pablo, admired him more than anything in the world.

6
00:00:25,240 --> 00:00:31,680
Pablo wanted to grow up just like his father, strong, brave and with a mustache as thick

7
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,640
as his.

8
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,640
One evening, as the sun set and the cool breeze of the evening swirled through the

9
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,640
window, Pablo climbed into bed.

10
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:46,320
Papa, he asked, what does it really mean when you say, if you mesh with the bull, you're

11
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,680
going to get the horns?

12
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:55,680
And Don Fernando smiled, his eyes twinkling.

13
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:56,680
Amigo, that phrase is muy importante.

14
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:03,320
It means that in life, if you challenge something powerful without thinking, like a great bull,

15
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,120
you are bound to face some consequences.

16
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:11,200
But let me tell you more, because life is como luchar con otro.

17
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,320
It's like fighting a bull.

18
00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:15,760
Pablo's eyes widened.

19
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,920
Like fighting a bull?

20
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,600
Don Fernando nodded seriously, then leaned in.

21
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,280
See Pablo, life will throw many things at you.

22
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,640
Kindness, love, bullies, difficult choices.

23
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,440
It's all, todo, like fighting a bull.

24
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,680
Pablo's eyes sparkle with excitement.

25
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,320
Tell me more, Papa.

26
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:41,440
Don Fernando chuckled, let me tell you about the time I fought el tormentoso.

27
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:47,280
The stormy bull, he was our muscles and bad attitude, just like that kid Diego, who never

28
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,280
shares his churros at school.

29
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:55,040
You see, el tormentoso charged at me, thinking he could wing with brute strength.

30
00:01:55,040 --> 00:02:00,680
But I stood my ground and said, if you mess with the bull, you're going to get the horns.

31
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:06,240
And then orlé, I stepped aside, because Pablo, standing up to bullies is like fighting a

32
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,240
bull.

33
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:12,320
You don't have to charge back, sometimes you just need to stand aside and let them rile

34
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,440
of steam.

35
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:20,120
Pablo laughed, imagining Diego with a bull's head, steam blowing from his ears.

36
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,880
Nadalus, talk about love.

37
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,440
Don Fernando continued, his voice softening.

38
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:32,240
Falling in love, adios mio, is like fighting a bull too.

39
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,120
Pablo frowned, love with a bull?

40
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,760
Don Fernando raised his eyebrow.

41
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:43,680
Oh yes, have you ever seen me fight Corazon Fierro, fierce heart?

42
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:48,680
A bull so wild and passionate, she was impossible to predict.

43
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:54,040
One moment she would charge, the next she would turn away and flicker tail.

44
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:59,640
Just like love, my son, you have to be brave, you have to be kind, and sometimes, sometimes

45
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:02,560
you have to be ready to get trampled a little.

46
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:09,280
But remember, when love is wild, if you mess with the bull, you're going to get the horns.

47
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,720
But it's worth it, simply.

48
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,000
Pablo's face scrunched up.

49
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,600
I think I'll wait on that one.

50
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,480
Don Fernando laughed heartily.

51
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,360
Voice, trace me, you ho.

52
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:28,320
Now the hardest lesson of all, his father said, growing serious, choosing the right path,

53
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,200
showing mercy.

54
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:37,080
Even when it's hard, you see, I once faced a bull named El Dilema, he was massive, with

55
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,960
horns as sharp as the kitchen's knife like the ones your mama would let me use.

56
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,720
I could have defeated him easily, but as I stood there I saw something in his eyes.

57
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,280
He was tired, he didn't want to fight anymore.

58
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,760
And in that moment, Pablo, I chose mercy.

59
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,520
I like him live.

60
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:58,560
Because sometimes, even when you can win, the right thing to do is to step back and

61
00:03:58,560 --> 00:03:59,960
let go.

62
00:03:59,960 --> 00:04:02,080
Life is like fighting a bull.

63
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,680
You must know when to show mercy.

64
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,520
Pablo thought hard about this.

65
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,520
But what if the bull doesn't deserve it?

66
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,400
Don Fernando nodded sagely.

67
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,200
Ah, but that's when it's hardest.

68
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,960
And most important, if you mess with the bull, see, you're going to get the horns.

69
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,960
But sometimes, it's better to walk away with grace.

70
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:23,920
No horns needed.

71
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,320
The room felt quiet for a moment.

72
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,800
Then Pablo looked up, eyes wide.

73
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:33,520
Papa, can you tell me the story of El Borito Flaco?

74
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,520
Don Fernando groaned, chuckling.

75
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,960
El Borito Flaco, huh?

76
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,720
Oh, you mean the time I fought the laziest bull in all of Spain.

77
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,040
Pablo, that bull moves so slowly.

78
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,360
I thought he'd fall in the sleep at the feet.

79
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:49,960
I waved my cape.

80
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,720
El Borito Flaco just stood there, chewing grass.

81
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,480
I could have charged him myself.

82
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,320
But in that moment, I learned a very important lesson.

83
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,040
What was it, Papa?

84
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,960
Sometimes in life, you'll face challenges that don't even care about you.

85
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,240
They won't bother you to fight at all.

86
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:13,280
And you realize some battles aren't even worth fighting, like when your mama asked to fold

87
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:14,780
the laundry perfectly.

88
00:05:14,780 --> 00:05:18,160
Sometimes it's better just to let it go.

89
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:19,480
Pablo giggled.

90
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,240
But mama won't let you mess with the laundry, right?

91
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:23,240
Don Fernando sighed.

92
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,760
They're allowed me, son.

93
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:25,960
They're not.

94
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,440
If you mess with your mama, you're definitely going to get your horns.

95
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:34,840
Pablo snuggled into his blanket, still giggling as Don Fernando kissed him on the forehead.

96
00:05:34,840 --> 00:05:38,920
Good night, mito reo pequeño.

97
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,680
Remember, life is like fighting a bull.

98
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,880
Full of surprises, challenges, and moments to be brave.

99
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:51,080
And always, ALWAYS, she'll mercy when you come.

100
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,200
As Don Fernando turned off the light, he whispered one last thing.

101
00:05:55,200 --> 00:06:01,760
And remember me, hijo, if you mess with the bull, you're going to get your horns.

102
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,420
Pablo finished with a grin.

103
00:06:03,420 --> 00:06:06,400
His eyes closing into sleep.

104
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:12,600
And with that, Pablo dreamed of bulls with funny names, brave matadors, and all the lessons

105
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,840
his father had taught him, wrapped up in capes and horns.

106
00:06:15,840 --> 00:06:19,520
Lay your head, my little one.

107
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,440
The day is done.

108
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,920
The moon has won.

109
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,520
Lay your head, my little one.

110
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,520
The day is done.

111
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,520
The moon has won.

112
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:46,520
Close your eyes and drift away to where the bulls and matadors play.

113
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:53,520
The cape is light, the stars are bright, the bulls are rest in the cool of night.

114
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,200
No need to charge, no need to fight.

115
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:06,000
In dreams we dance in the soft moonlight.

116
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,800
So hush me, hijo, don't you fear.

117
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:18,600
The world is calm and I am near.

118
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:25,560
If you mess with the bull, remember it's true.

119
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:45,840
I'll be there to guide and protect you.

120
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:50,480
No sleep, sleep, my brave little star.

121
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:57,120
Tomorrow you'll dream of who you are kind and strong with mercy and grace.

122
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:05,920
The heart of a matador in every place.

123
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,640
Good night, good night.

124
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:12,200
The world is still.

125
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:18,520
Rest now, need a more with love you will.

126
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:25,240
For the bull will bow, the stars will glow.

127
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:53,040
And in your dreams brave matadors grow.
