hijo de puta
son of a bitch / bastard (strong insult expressing rage or contempt)expressionvulgarOne of the most common strong insults in colloquial usage. Intensity varies enormously with tone: it can express pure fury, but between close friends it sometimes softens to affectionate teasing. In this episode it consistently signals genuine hostility.
Cuando me enteré de que me habían engañado así, lo primero que pensé fue: ¡hijo de puta!When I found out I had been deceived like that, the first thing I thought was: you bastard!tonto del culo
complete idiot / utter fool (emphatic, contemptuous)expressionvulgarA reinforced form of 'tonto'. The addition of 'del culo' (literally 'of the backside') is a fixed intensifier with no literal meaning. Used to dismiss someone as deeply stupid, often in frustration. Always contemptuous.
No me puedo creer que hayas firmado sin leer el contrato, eres un tonto del culo.I can't believe you signed without reading the contract, you complete idiot.
