FAKE IDENTITY

Head over and kidnap Fernanda.

If you wanna get back in the biz, I'm in.

I'm not up for it.

No that I'm on my own, why not start my own cartel?

That ------- hag is getting away, ------- it!

Let me go, -------! Let go!

You're both fired!

You said we stood a chance if I got out.

No, no... no. I never said that.

They're after Mrs. Fernanda.

You and Diego have to help me get her out of Alamos.

I know you'd like to have your own merchandise.

And I have all the necessary contacts.

FAKE IDENTITY

One more thing, Ramona. Have you heard from Circe?

All I know is she's missing.

Has she looked you up or called?

No.

Besides, I've always been loyal to Gavino.(Phm

And you, for the time being.

If I'd heard from her, I would've told you.

As far as your trial, it doesn't look promising.

The DA says he hopes you get at least 30 years.

What the ---- are you talking about?

- I told you to bribe the judge, - ------ it!

(P Believe me, I tried.

But I only managed to get them to halve your sentence.

Don't you realize I'll die if I spend 15 years here?

Find Joselito.

Joselito can't get you out. This isn't about money.

Joselito will get me out. He'll help me escape.

What?

Yes. Yes, you heard me.

Joselito has to help me get out of here.(Phm

What are you going to do about Gavino?

I'll pay you double what Gavino is,

but for him to stay here in prison.

Why are they after Mrs. Fernanda?

She's the only one who can lead them to Diego.

Where's Mrs. Fernanda right now?

She's hiding with me, but I'm worried(Phm

that someone will investigate and find us.

Talk to Diego and tell him his mother can't stay here.

I already talked about it with him.

Mrs. Fernanda was very upset after Eliseo's death.

But... you know they don't get along.

Listen, Zoraida, she's coming to the capital.

I doubt Diego will mind helping her if she's in danger.

Please talk him into it. He listens to you.

Tell him she's in danger and can't stay in Alamos.

Yes, and you get everything ready for Mrs. Fernanda's trip.

Thank you for everything.

Do we have any leads on the narcos?

What about Mrs. Fernanda? Did you find her?

What's going on, Piñas?

Think of a different strategy and find her.

We have to protect her. Understood?

Tell the guys we're gonna meet in 15 minutes.(Phm

- 15 minutes! - Yes, sir.

Hey. Why'd you ask me to come?(Phm

Come in, son. Have a seat.

Take this check for 6,000 pesos and have the bathroom repaired.

Alright.

Aren't you gonna ask about Isabel?

What for? She probably left town by now.

It's best she's far away from you and this damned place.

What in the world?

So now Chabela's a saint? Saint Isabel!

And we're human garbage, right?

Think whatever you want. I'll go run your errand.

Hey, son, have you had anything to drink today?

I don't drink anymore.

And he fell off the bench!

There's my sister. Bye!

How's it going, Ricas?(P

Real good.

- Mom's here! - Hi, kiddos!

How was your day?

- Great! - Really?

How was your day?

Awful, like always. The girls here are so annoying.

- Oh, honey. - I hate city snobs.

Why can't we go back to Alamos?

You know exactly why we can't go back.

How was your day?

Great. I've made a lot of friends.

Way to go!

See?

Little by little you'll make lots of friends.

You're a beautiful person.

It's always tough at first.

You just have to get used to it.

Salas is in the hospital.

He needs surgery, but he's alive.

Thank the Lord! I have to see him.

No!(Phm

The narcos want you to go visit him so they can catch you.

What should I do? Should I stay here?

What should I do?

Listen, don't take this the wrong way,

but I called Diego and Isabel and told them what happened.

Oh, Zoraida.

You're in danger. You can't stay in Alamos.

You have to join Diego.

- Zoraida. - He's your only family.

We've talked about this countless times.

You have no choice.

Right.

Now I'll go from being the mayor's mother

to being a burden on Diego.

Wash your hands and change out of your uniforms.

Hey, kids. How was your day?

Good.

Very good.(P

- Hey... - Yes?

Can we talk?

Sure. I need to talk to you too.

I'll go first. I have some bad news.

I was fired from work.

Is Marlene home yet?

No, she's not back from rehearsals.

What are you looking at?

You came back very dirty from school.

PE is my last class of the day and I sweat a lot.

You stink, you know. You should shower.

I'm home!

Is everything okay?

Uh-huh.

We were just talking. Smoothing things out, right?

We're a family after all, aren't we?

Yes. The three of us are a family.

The worst part is that I got Chucho fired too.

Don't worry. We can make do with what I earn.

- We? - Yes.

Forget it.

Maybe you can. I won't let you support me.

I'm gonna fix this.

I'll find a job.

I'll find something or think of something.

Where are you gonna find a job?

I don't know. Don't worry about that.

I said I was gonna do things right for you.

Don't do it for me. Do it for yourself.

For us, then. For everyone.

Maybe I'll work as a bartender at a restaurant or bar.

To get that tip money from the old ladies.

- At Babel? - Exactly!

What did you have to tell me?

- Nothing. - What do you mean?

No, I won't tell you after hearing what you had to say.

You shouldn't have to deal with more.

- You sure? - Yeah.

Show me some love. I'm upset.

- Are the kids close by? - No.

You sure?

That's it. No more.

Answer it.

- It's my mom. - Answer it.

Hello?

What?

She's crying.

Talk to her.

Yes, Mom. Please stop crying.

I promise to get a job right away.

Yes, I know,

but I told you 'cause I didn't want to lie to you

and because I can't send you money this week either.

I promise I'll be better off next week.

No, it wasn't my fault. I didn't do anything wrong.

Calm down, Mom.

I hate it when you get like this.

I promise to get a job right away.

I will.

Okay.

Give me your blessing, okay?

Thank you, Mom.

Hang in there, man. Was Emiliano fired too?

Yeah.

Listen, he's not a bad guy,

but I don't want to talk about that jerk right now.

Emiliano's cool and I like him,

but he keeps getting me in trouble.

I think I'm gonna set some boundaries, man.

Alright.

See you around.

Hang in there.

Zoraida.

Did you talk to Diego?

Yes.

Tell Fernanda to fly to Mexico City.

That's great! Thank goodness, sweetie!

I'll buy the ticket right away.

I think my savings will be more than enough to buy the ticket.

Let me know when her flight comes in

so I can pick her up at the airport, okay?

Thanks.

Oh, Sweet Virgin.

Well, it's easier to apologize than ask for permission.

FAKE IDENTITY

What do you say?(P

What can you do?

- Whatever you need me to do. - You sure?

I can work in the kitchen, mop the floor, wait tables.

I'll do whatever you need.

Where are you from?

Why do you ask?

I'm curious.

Up north.

Where up north?

- Very up north. - Right.

Alamos.

- Yes. - Okay.

Leave your number and I'll call you.

- You gonna call me? - Sure.

What do you say, chief?

Hurry, --------! You're late!

Huh? Help me out.

No, man.

- Why not? - I'm fully staffed.

Those guys were late.

I'll never be late. I'm a great mixer.

You can pay me half a day.

No, I don't know much about gardening,

but you give me a few days to study up

and I'll have this place looking better than Chapultepec Castle.

- Not interested! - Hey, wait!

Come back!

You can pay me half at first.

Hey!

Cool, huh?(P

It's the advert for the new show.

I can't leave Babel now, honey.

You're the prettiest one here.

What was that woman you introduced me to called?

Camila Guevara.

This is Paloma. She threatened to quit.(P

Can you imagine what'll happen if I leave too?

It'll be horrible for the show and Babel.

But I want you to spend more time here with me.

That's why I came.

Yes, but we can figure something out.

You loved to show off, say I was a dancer,(P

and that I was yours only.

Don't say I can't do this. It never bothered you before.

Would you rather I become a bitter, frustrated woman

like Fernanda?

Don't bring up Fernanda. She made my life hell.

What should we do then?

You can keep working there for the time being.

- Yes! - But...

I will stop by.

I want everyone to know this cutie is taken.

Thank you, sweetheart!

What's up?

How goes it?

Your friend Chucho just went out to find a new job.

He's very down, isn't he?

It's my fault.

He said you were fired.

He's sadder than a fat kid who lost his candy bar.

I know.

I hope he finds a job fast 'cause things are tough here.

I was turned away from the ten places I went to.

It's tough out there.

I told you we could make a ton of money...

Good afternoon.

We can make a ton of money doing what we know how to do.

And I told you that it wouldn't be easy here.

If we were caught in Alamos or Sonora,

we could take off into the open fields.

- We can't do that here. - Fine, it's tougher here.

- A lot tougher. - The cops are smarter,

but it's not that big a deal.

We can ditch them. We just have to...

What? How are we gonna do that?

By finding men we trust.

There's the problem, son.

We're surrounded by snobs. I don't trust anyone here.

Really?

What?

You didn't just change your name, did you?

I think Emiliano doesn't have the ----- to do the job.

Drop it.

I'm in a lousy mood and I don't want to fight.

You used to love danger.(Phm

My friend Diego was an adventurer and a badass.

(P What changed?

I told you. I fell in love.

I want to do things right, legally.

Is that hard to understand?

To doing things right! Cheers to that!

We'll have the best luck that way.

But...(P

Zoraida, how can we go to the airport?

I only have my bag with me. I don't have anything else.

You have nothing to worry about.

I've taken care of everything.

I'm going to give you some money I saved up.

We'll use this to buy the plane ticket.

We have to go to the airport

to find out when the first flight to Mexico City leaves.

This is all so ironic.

While I'm going through all this

I can't help but wonder where all my friends are now.

I realize you're my only true friend.

I treated you very poorly and that was wrong.

I'd like to apologize. Please forgive me.

Mrs. Fernanda, you...

You don't have to be formal.

Call me Fernanda. We're equals.

Ma'am...

You gave me a job and a place at a home with values(Phm

(P and other beautiful things.

Once you have that, you have it all.

Plus, I'm helping you 'cause I care about you very much.

Thank you. I will pay you back.

Let's just go.

I won't feel comfortable till I see you on that plane.

Okay? Come on, Fernanda.

It's a pleasure to see you here, Augusto.

Don't get used to it.

I don't want to be seen around here.

How can you say that after all these years?

How long has it been? We have a history together.

Ever since Gavino took an interest in your stepson.

I don't think he killed Eliseo.

I think he did.

Why?

Gavino's crazy.

And our partnership is over.(Phm

If it's over, then why are you in one of his businesses

with one of his most loyal employees?

Gavino's in prison, isn't he?

And his business won't be able to go on for long, will it?

You know what? These walls have ears.

So spare me your tests for some other time.

If you help me, you'll do very well for yourself.

Much better than with your brother-in-law.

Family-run businesses don't always pan out.

Get to the point.

What do you want?

I've saved up a large sum of money.

The fruits of your hard labor.

What do you want?

Well, you have contacts.(P

I need to put that money to work.

You want my contacts.(Phm

And your discretion.

Gavino wants you to help him get out of prison.

And you said "I'll get you out tonight."

No way, Sebas.

Gavino isn't getting out of prison.

Then what should we do? I kept up my end of the deal.

I kept him from being extradited

and got him a better sentence.

But if he finds out we've done nothing to get him out...

Calm down. I get it.

Who says we won't do anything to get him out?

If that's what the boss wants, then that's what we'll do.

We'll open the cell door and let the birdie out.

When he takes flight

we'll shoot his wing and throw him away.

That won't be difficult. We'll bribe a Federal agent.

Everything will end with Gavino's death.

What do you think? I'm gonna take over this ----.

Shower all you want, Gavino Gaona,

but you'll never be fully clean.

I thought you were a badass.

Let go, -------!

You're dead, man!

The Colombians send their regards, ------------.

FAKE IDENTITY

Man down in the showers! Send backup!

Get the doctor!(P

I can't leave without anything steady.

Mexico City's a tough place. Unemployment is high.

I couldn't help you out.

Alright.

Hey, think you have a friend who can hire me

or let me crash at their place for a few days?

Corona, you have no skills. What do you want me to do?

The money I have will only last me a few days.

(Phm Good day!

30.

(Phm Where's your mom?

She said she had something to do.

Did she say what that something was?

No, she didn't say.

Amanda, did she tell you anything else?

No.(Phm

She doesn't have to ask you for permission to go out, does she?

No, she doesn't have to ask for permission,

but she should give me a heads up.

We share a house and should look after each other.

What if she runs into your dad and he beats her...?(Phm

Don't talk about my dad. It's not your place.

Mom can look after herself.

Alright. Sorry.

Since everyone here needs your permission for everything,

I'd like to go to my room if you don't mind.

I don't want to argue with you.

Okie-dokie.

You upset her, Ricas.

No.

You're going to have to stay out of sight and hidden here.(P

Joselito's coming to check on Babel.

I can't believe it.(Phm

Will that man keep ------- with me wherever I go?

Well...

I can trust you, can't I?

What are you insinuating?

Who do you think you're talking to?

If you betray your own, you die.

We're family. That's above all else.

No, don't take it personally.

I haven't had the best experiences.

Gavino ordered your death and you're his blood.

He sent Death everywhere.

Blood bonds come from in here, Felipa.

Not the appendage that hangs between a man's legs.

That has nothing to do with it.

Only women and children know what a blood bond is.

True. You're right.

But you're not her mother!

Hey!

I have some news you might be interested in.

Guess who dropped by from Sonora.

Felipa, put that out. We're eating.

Who?

Augusto, stepfather to the mayor,

may he rest in peace.

You do know he was your father's partner, don't you?

Yes.(Phm

I got in a lot of trouble because of him.

Well, maybe he can help you get out of trouble.

How?

Listen, you have the contacts, but you don't have the money.

Augusto wants to do business in the city,

but he lacks the contacts. He only has the money.

The cards said it, sweetie.

If you screw your head on right,

the doors will open for you.

See? She's right sometimes.

Get him to give you the money, get your business going,

and once it's running,

everything will work out for you.

Zoraida?

Yes, I'm at the airport, but I can't find Diego anywhere.

I don't know what to do. Should I call him?(P

It's just that...

I don't think this was a good idea.

Mrs. Fernanda.

I'll call you back.

Yes.

Hi, Mrs. Fernanda. I'm Isabel.

Isabel Fernandez.

Oh, right.

You and Diego left Sonora.

You're the Chief of Police's daughter-in-law.

Yes, ma'am.

Nice to meet you.

Likewise.

I'm here to take you home.

What? What about Diego?

Diego doesn't yet know you're here.(P

FAKE IDENTITY

How rude of you!

What do you mean Diego doesn't know I'm here?

Who are you? You don't know us! You don't know me!

I really can't believe this.

I'm really sorry, ma'am.

I don't know if what I did was right or wrong.

I just wanted to help you.

I know I overreached and I apologize for that.

Look, Diego lost his job. Sit down so I can fill you in.

I understand.

You didn't want to tell him so as not to upset him more.

I know Diego sees me as a nuisance.

What are you doing?

Huh? I'm gonna clean this mess.

Hand me that light bulb. Hold this.

I'm gonna clean this room so we can have another room.

Do I flip the switch?

I'll tell you when to do it. Hit it!

Hell yeah!

Done! You wanna help out?

- Yeah! - Cool.

Get a broom, mop, bucket and some rags.

Operation Cinderella is on.

What is this?

A Frisbee. Throw it over.

- Don't hurt yourself. - Get the cleaning supplies.

You okay?

Yeah! I dropped the bucket.

What's wrong?

I dropped the bucket.

What are you doing up there? Exorcising the bedroom?(Phm

No, we're gonna clean it to make a new room.

Oh, okay.

Please hand me the bucket and the broom.

Please?

Yeah.(P

Here you go.

I had an accident.

It's okay. Ready?

Yes.

Let's go.

Operation Sweep-o-Matic is on.

Where should we start?

Put all that stuff against the wall.

Not the heavy stuff.

Mrs. Fernanda, he only said you don't get along.

Yes. I can imagine.

Diego and I have a difficult relationship.

Diego can't stand me. He definitely can't stand me.

Let's not talk about that.

Just know that's not true. You're his mother.

His mother.

He never refers to me as his mother.

He calls me "ma'am", as if I were a stranger.

I never told you, but I have two children.

They're very cute.

You'll get to meet them soon.

I know being a mother can be very difficult.

Our children aren't always grateful.(Phm

Parents make mistakes, don't we?

Yes.

Shall we go? Ready?

I am.

- Yeah? - Let's go.

We have to stop the bleeding. He's lost a lot of blood.(P

Get some antibiotics to stop any potential infection.

His heart rate is slowing.

How is he?

Some organs have been compromised

due to the stab wound.(Phm

We're doing everything we can to stabilize him.

You won't be able to treat him properly here.

We've asked the warden to have him taken to a hospital.

He'll die before you ever hear from him.

What's up?

Gavino's dying.

What do you mean?

The Colombians ordered a hit and he was stabbed.

It happened in prison.

You might get your way

and become the heir to the Gaona Cartel.

I like the sound of that. Thanks for the info.

Let me know when that bastard takes his last breath.

Have you seen the news?

Mr. Gavino was attacked.

Who attacked him?

Who else? The Colombians.

I'm leaving. I'm late, as usual.(Phm

I don't know how we'll pull off today's show.

Paloma's not coming. It's gonna be a mess.

Why?

She got jealous and quit. She's so silly.

See you later.

Okay. Marlene!

You got an email from the bank.

It says a deposit of one million pesos was made.

Is that right?(P

When you use the laptop, please log out of my email account.

Did you delete it?

I don't like to keep such personal info in my email.

Where did the money come from?

It's not mine. It belongs to Augusto.

He wants me to hold it

'cause he wants to avoid trouble

when his assets are divided during the divorce, Diana.

- Is that legal? - I don't know, Diana.

Don't look at me like that! I'm not a thief!

No, but if he did it to his ex-wife,

he can do it to you too.

We agreed you would leave Augusto alone.

Can you do that?

Yes. Alright.

- Okay. - I just worry about you.

Don't. There's no need.

I have a man who can look after me.

No, I don't think Augusto is trustworthy.

Look at all he did to his stepson.

What do you think he'll do to me?

You don't have many options.

Where will you get the money?

Why don't you loan me the money?

Sure, right away.

Don't laugh.

With what money?

When you needed money, Gavino never turned you away.

For your surgeries.

What surgeries are you talking about, you bitch?

I'm all-natural. This is all mine!

I've only ever had touch-ups done, and those cost pennies.

What you need are millions of pesos.

You can't go into Babel. Things are heated now!

I told you Joselito is coming to talk to the gringo!

Surgeries...

Sweetie, honey, you're smarter than Augusto.

Use him.

You can kick him to the curb after you're done with him.

You need him now, though.

Call him.

Yes!

There are no stars in the skies.

Pollution.

Death is coming for what's owed to it!

We're out of time.

What's going on?

Is he dead?

We've been authorized to move him.

The ambulance is here.

FAKE IDENTITY

Stay right there. Keep me posted.

Mr. Gavino's in the hospital

and according to his lawyer, in critical condition.

What are we waiting for? We should go get him.(Phm

There'll be fewer guards there.

What part of critical condition don't you understand?

You trying to kill him?

No, but what are we gonna do?

Get to work.

I'm leaving to Mexico City and you'll look for Mrs. Fernanda.

We have to find her no matter what.(P

Alright.

What is it now, ------- it?

What?

Are the news reports true? Is Gavino really dying?

He's in the hospital.(P

Don't get too eager, though. He's still alive.

So I guess you won't be stopping by anymore.

The plan continues.(Phm

As long as Mr. Gavino's alive, we'll keep going.

See you tomorrow.

It's true, honey. Your dad's on his deathbed.

I hope he croaks.

Circe, you can't fool me. I held you when you were born.

You know what?(Phm

He never loved me or allowed me to love him.

Poor thing.

He'll die before he can kneel and beg for my forgiveness.

Who was your partner before you decided

to look for new investors, Jim?

We've been asking ourselves that since our last meeting.

You keep that information closely under wraps.

My partner was a northerner, an entrepreneur,

but truth be told, he rarely showed his face.

Now that he's not willing or able to keep our agreement

I was forced to find new investors.

Have you two dissolved your partnership?

Look, this is the deed to the property,(Phm

trademark information,

and the necessary permits.

As you can see, only my name appears on all of them.(Phm

My partner and I had a verbal agreement of sorts.

But that agreement ended.

The paperwork is all in my name.

You can talk it over with your lawyer if you want.

Babel's been my dream

since this was nothing but an abandoned lot.

I promise you won't regret becoming a part of that dream.

We'll talk it over with our lawyer and return tomorrow.

Very well.

I'm sure your lawyer won't find any legal impediments

that could keep you from investing.

I'll have the contracts drawn up immediately.

Agreed.

Porfirio!

Porfirio?

What is it?

What do you mean by that?

Did you cash the check I gave you

so you could pay the plumber?

No.

The plumber couldn't make it today so I'll do it tomorrow.

Hey!

Hey, Chief.

You and I have some unfinished business,

and since you're not taking my calls, I had to come personally.

Dad, who were those armed men?

Men from the Gaona Cartel.

They're not to be messed with.

How do you know them?

- Go on. - Amandita!

What is it?

Give me that.

Don't you want to see how the room is coming along?

- No, thank you. - It's pretty cool.

I told Ricas we're gonna put up a few paintings,

make a window to let the light in, and make it very nice.

- Wanna see? - No, thank you.

How are you gonna do that? Mom said you lost your job.

You need money to do that.

Don't worry about that. I'll figure it out.

If you wanna take a look, go upstairs.

Mom!

Hi, sweetie.

- Hi, Mom. - We cleaned the attic!

You did? That's wonderful.

Where were you?

Why weren't you answering your phone?

Everything okay?(Phm

Yeah.

Where were you?

We need to talk about something important.

What is it?

What's this?
