- Diego: When you were waiting at the roundabout, for a car to pass on your left, Lena and you kissed.
- Mateo Blanco: We kissed? I don't remember that.
- Diego: It's a normal kiss, the kind couples give each other out of habit.
- Mateo Blanco: The last kiss.
- Diego: Yes. Lena didn't die in your arms, like you'd dreamed, but the last sensation she took from this world was your mouth.

- Ray X: That's what we've got re-edited.
- Mateo Blanco: Do you think it's worth carrying on, or is it crazy?
- Diego: What? I pissed myself laughing. I'm dying to see what happens.
- Judit García: It's wonderful, Mateo!
- Diego: It's hilarious. You have to re-release it.

- Modelo: What's your name?
- Mateo Blanco: Harry Caine.
- [voiceover]
- Mateo Blanco: I used to be called Mateo and I was a film director. I was always tempted by the idea of being someone else, as well as myself. Living one's life wasn't enough, so I invented a pseudonym, Harry Caine, an adventurer who, as fate would have it, became a writer. I had him sign all the scripts and stories I wrote. For years, Mateo Blanco and Harry Caine shared the same body, mine. But a moment came when suddenly I could only be Harry Caine. I became my pseudonym. A self-made writer made by himself. There was just one unforseen detail. Harry Caine would be a blind writer.
