Keeper

Faustino sits in silence, letting Gato remember his father. He uses the time to think about what he will do for the article. He decides that he will use the interview to get three feature stories: the first about the Keeper, the second about his father’s death, and the last about the World Cup. He will tell the story of the Keeper so that it is believable to fans, even if he himself doesn’t believe it.

Faustino then thinks about the way that Gato told the story of his father. He did it very matter-of-factly, without much emotion. Conversely, when he talked about leaving the Keeper, he was overcome with emotion. Faustino thinks it’s strange, but Gato begins talking again.

Gato asks if they are done with the interview. However, Faustino asks him to talk for just 45 more minutes, then they can eat breakfast downstairs. He asks Gato to watch the tape of the World Cup match, and Gato agrees.

Faustino asks what part of the match Gato wants to watch. He is surprised when Gato wants to see the goal that was scored against him. As they rewatch it, Gato praises the actions the other keeper took just before the goal.
