Can you believe a husband would do that?
Marry someone else? That's crazy.hMhM
This man said he'd marry my wifehMhM
and help us get our papers so we could live here.hMhMM
Fraud on both sides. Very nice.hMhMhM
They grew close.hMhM
You brought him into my bed. Of course there was affection.M
He thinks that because he's Cuban,hMhM
he's the king of God knows where.hMhM
Adam in the Garden of Eden.hMM
I was married to two people. It was his idea.hM
You're an idiot. You're a really dumb guy.hMhM
My family's very close.hMhMM
We try to eat together at least every Sunday.hMhM
And Fridays and Saturdays too.M
Did you ever think he'd want to take part in family events?M
I'm out of excuses to tell my daughterhMhMhMM
why her father is never with usM
He's antisocial.hMhM
These people take advantage.hM
I'm here as a victim of this person's attitude.hM
What do you do when you stay home?hMhMhM
Watch soccer.hMhM
I brought a gift for the gentleman to see.hM
May I show you a video?hMhM
Roman Emperor Julius Caesar once said,hMhM

We lived together in ArgentinahMhMhM
Things got complicated over there.hMhMhMhM
We didn't have much money so we decided to come to the US.hM
Can you go into detail about what exactly was complicated?hM
I'll tell you.hMhMhM
You had financial troubles.hMM
Yes.hM
There are also social issues over there like crime.
I wanted to start a family.hMM
I wanted to save some money to have kids down the line.hMM
M
Both of us decided to come to the UShMhM
and live the American Dream.hM
You came with a tourist visa.hM
That's right.hM
What happened?hMhM
It was rough in the beginning.M
We couldn't find work.hMhM
I found a low-paying job as a personal trainer.hMhM
Did you find out about conditions here?hMhMM
Did you research what your outlook might be in the US?hMM
M
The problems here and the strugglehM
plenty are going through?hMhM
I didn't know that much.hMhM
In Argentina I was told that I look like an AmericanhM
and so things wouldn't be difficult for me.hMhMhM
Because you're blonde and blue-eyed,hMhMhM
they said you'd blend in among them.hMhM
As if there were that many fair-skinned people here.hMhM
That's how it was.hMhMhMM
People said there were opportunities herehM
and things would go well for me, so we decided to come.hMhM
We brought everything we'd saved and came to the US.hMhM
So you arrive here and have trouble finding work.hMhM
What happened?hMhMhMhM
I found a job as a personal trainer day and night.
I was able to save some money.M
I only charged five dollars an hour.hMhMhM
Not much, but enough to get by.M
We rented an apartment until our tourist visa ran out...hMM
M
We began trying to figure out a way to stay.hM
We liked it here.hMhMhM
As we researched how to do that, we discoveredhMhM
the only way was to marry an American or a Cuban.hMhMM
To a resident or to a citizen is the advicehMhMhM
you must've been given.hMhM
Sure.hMhMhM
Continue.hM
I met a Cuban girl at the gym and I suggested to my wife
that I marry her.hMhMhMhM
Can you imagine?hMhMhM
One's husband asking to marry someone else.hM
You two weren't married. hM
You were boyfriend and girlfriend.hM
Right.hM
We wanted to get married and start a family.
I understand.hMhM
Can you imagine?hM
That was our only chance.hM
I had a stable job and we were doing alright.hMhM
I brought up the idea of marrying a Cuban...hMhMhMM
M
I introduced them.hMhM
Did she know what the plan was?hMhM
Of course she knew. She asked for money for it.hMM
It was a plan.hMhMhM
She asked for money...hM
She brought up $!#@ all the time.hM
I didn't know what it meant, so I looked it up.hM
What did she say?hMhMhM
She said she wanted to $!#@ him.
I didn't know what it meant and had to look it up.hM
Can you believe a husband would marry someone else?hMhM
M
It was a complicated situation.M
Complicated?hMhM
She's saying that word in a way that shouldn't be said.hM
Sorry. I won't say it.hMhM
It's a vulgar word used to refer to sex.hM
It's just that this Cuban lady had a certain personality.hMM
"Hey, let's $!#@!." Can you imagine?hMhMhM
I know... don't say it anymore. It's a very dirty word.hM
I don't even know what it means.hMhM
I told you what it means. It means sex.hMhM
It's a vulgar word.hMhMhM
You proposed that. What happened?hMhM
A guy at the gym hired me to be his trainer.hMhMhMM
He was fat and lost a lot of weight working with me.hMM
M
I explained my situation to him and he told mehM
he'd just arrived from Florida.M
-Not from Florida. -I meant Miami.hMhMhM
We lived in California.hMhM
Oh, you live in California.hMM
Over there, you'd blend in better with the blonde hair.hM
He said he'd move in with us and marry my girlfriendhMhM
and help us with our paperwork so we could stay here.hMhMM
He brought that guy into our home.hMhMhM
You found a woman for you and a candidate for your girlfriendM
with the idea of both of you remaining in the US.hMhM
M
Genius. Brilliant.hMhM
Imagine what kind of guy would do that.hMhM
What happened? Why are you here?hMhMhM
Make it quick because you haven't told me.hM
I'm suing her because I want her out of my house.hMhM
I also want $2O,OOO for all the time I wasted on her.hM
M
Yes.hMhM
-You broke up? -Yes.hM
Why?hMhM
Because of this man.
She's with him for real?hMhM
Yes. I think so.hMhM
-What do you mean you think so? -I have evidence that they are.M
Explain.hMhMhM
But make it quick. You're being too slow.hM
I brought him into our home.hM
He cleans and irons and said he'd help with everything.hMM
He said he was a nice guy, and at the beginning, he was.hM
We decided they'd get married..M
All this for papers.hMhMhM
I had to provide pictures of them together as proofhM
that they were a real couple.hM
They set all this fraud up.hMM
Right! I get it!hMhM
I get it.hMhM
Then what happened?hM
They started growing close.hM
You brought him into my bed. How could I not?hMhMhMMM
I didn't bring him into your bed.hMhMhM
All I did was take a picture of the two of you in bedhMhM
so that immigration wouldn't deport us.hMhMhM
I was risking my life just like she was.hMhM
You brought the guy into our home.hMhM
We could've gone to jail. I'm a hard-working man.hM
I'm doing this because I want to stay.hMhMhM
And now you're suing me!hMhM
You said you just took a picture,hM
but she's making it sound like the guy slept with her.hM
No... it was just a picture.hM
I was sleeping in my underwear,M
and the guy got into bed with me.hMhMhMhM
And all for our papers.hMhMM
So you had the guy get into bed while she was sleepinghM
to photograph him.hMhMhM
It wasn't like that.hM
People are crazy.hMhMhMhM
Why do they do things so terribly wrong?hM
The thing is, I took a picture...hMhMhM
This guy...hMhMhM
Why do you think she's cheating on you?hM
Up to now, you haven't told me.M
They became close.hMhMhM
After a while, I asked him to get our papers.hMhMM
How long have they been marriedM
-Us? -Them.hMhMhM
Six months.hMhM
It was his idea.hMhM
Then what?hMhM
I asked him for the papers so she could get her residency.
Then, after they divorced, I could get them too.hMhMhM
That was the idea at the beginning.hMhMhMhM
Did she grow close to the fat guy?hM
Apparently.hMhM
That's why you want her out.
I think they're having an affair.hMhM
So you want her out and you want $2O,OOO.hMhMhM
Sure, for everything I wasted on her.hMhM
It was your idea!hMhMhM
We'll take a short break.hM
When we return, hM
Yessica will respond to her ex-boyfriend's suit.
We'll be right back.hMhMhM
Have you had sex with the fat guy?hMhMhM
Yes.hMhM
The man saw your tarantula.hM
He asked me to undress in front of him.hMhM
She's my girl. That guy's a $!#@.hMhM
So are you leaving the house?hMhMhM
I'm not.hMhM
He brought him into my house and my bed.hM
He created this situation.hMM
Life's different than is used to be.hMhM
It's all messed up.hMhM
I have a record...hMhM
Bring me the plaintiff's evidence.hM
-What's that? -You'll find out.hMhM
CASE CLOSEDhMhMhM
