Original subtitles

- How did she get out of her room? - Don't know.

- You gave her her pills? - Yes. At 6:00, like I do every day.

Alice.

Don't worry. Everything's all right. Bring a wheelchair.

Calm down. Everything's all right. Don't worry.

There you go.

- Take her to her room. - Are these words?

They're just scribbles. They don't mean anything.

Take her to her bed.

- But, boss, they're letters, look. - Just do as I say!

She's never had an episode before like the one she had last night.

What did you say to her?

I... I talked about my father.

About your father?

The thing is that I need to know him.

I need to know his name, and she's the only person who knows it.

Alice suffered a very serious brain injury.

Her face just changed.

I saw it.

I know my mom is there somewhere in her head.

- This is Pérez. - Anything to report?

Everything's in order here.

Good. Remember, you gotta keep an eye on her.

All right.

If she suspected something, she would've left.

She hasn't been out all evening, boss.

Still, make sure Romero doesn't let her out of his sight for a second.

I sent Pérez, sir. He replaced Romero at 7:00 this morning.

I've told you, I don't want anyone else involved in this!

Nobody knows why she's under surveillance, sir.

Romero needed a few hours off.

- Señor Bernardo is here, sir. - Send him in.

I must go now.

- Simón. - Bernardo.

Simón.

How are you doing? It's good to see you. What's up?

The president is going to announce your official nomination this afternoon.

- Mm. - Congratulations.

That's great.

I need you to look for more information.

What position did they hold after Conaculta?

Did they have family? Where did they live?

- Is Valentina de la Paz here? - She's over there.

Thank you.

Thanks, Gregorio.

There's 58 guys on the list. Seriously?

What are you doing here?

Val.

Listen to me.

That wasn't cool. You had no right to do that.

I won't say anything else.

You have my word.

There's an operation tomorrow.

You can come if you want.

Is it Chango again?

He went back to his old ways, but we intercepted his communications.

- How? - Thanks to Teresa.

Sorry. Just wanna get some coffee.

Gregorio Robles. I'm Valentina's assistant.

This is Detective Lorenzo Márquez.

- Is this about the investigation? - Investigation?

No. He's here for something else.

Let's go to my office.

Nice to meet you.

The Senate has 30 days to make a decision.

During that time, they will put your life and work under a microscope.

People will come here.

Others will contact your son, your wife, Rogelio.

They'll make it look like a social call, but don't trust them.

They're just hounds looking for a weak spot.

Hey, I've already told you. I have nothing to hide.

Now what's important is that...

I'm sorry. Go on.

Right. As I was saying, it's important to take care of yourself.

Simón Marroquín. Please leave your message.

Simón, it's Susana.

Catalina gave me your number,

and, well, you said I could come to you if I needed anything, and...

It's about Manny.

Please call me when you can. It's urgent.

I'm sorry. I can't tonight. I'm having dinner with my mom.

How about tomorrow?

I've got an important meeting at work. How about Wednesday?

I have to go to Puebla for a business thing.

You can come with me.

I really wish I could, but I can't get off work.

When will you return?

Not before Friday.

Let's go to a hotel.

Okay.

The Urbano?

Eight o'clock.

No phones,

no laptops, no tablets, or anything like that.

Please make sure you tell the front desk not to interrupt us

even if there's an earthquake.

I'll just make sure destiny doesn't get in the way this time.

See you Friday, Federico.

See you Friday, Valentina.

Whoo-hoo!

Is the story on the reform ready? Congress goes into session tomorrow.

Yes, I've got it. It's right here. I'm coming.

Oh, hi.

I talked to my grandma.

She didn't say anything about the police warrant,

but she did talk to my mom.

Where in the world is she now?

I don't know.

She didn't say, but she asked about me, and they told her I'd traveled to Mexico.

Did you tell her about your sisters?

What do you think, Pocho? I can't tell her about my sisters.

I'm sure she'd have a heart attack.

But it's weird. I don't understand why my mom starts calling me now

when she always used to send letters.

And what if she's been watching me for all of these years, huh?

You know what I think sometimes?

That it was her who planned for me to come to Mexico.

That's impossible.

Well, look, Pocho. How did Papá Antonio suddenly get all this money?

The store makes barely enough to live on. He was the one who told me to come here.

He said, "You just fly to Cancún, and when you can, go to Mexico City."

The postcards...

What about the bastard who attacked you? That was also part of the plan?

Look.

It's okay if you wanna believe these stories,

but you're not alone anymore, Mati.

You have me.

And you don't need your mama or your grandparents or anyone else.

Okay?

Okay.

Thanks.

- The food is gonna burn. - Stay here a little longer.

No, it's just...

I have to tell her now, Claudio.

No. Wait, Daniel. We agreed you'd wait until you knew each other better,

gain her affection, gain her confidence.

Yeah, but I didn't know she had sisters at the time.

Look, if you tell her the truth now, she'll see you as a traitor.

Can't you see?

As long as Matilde doesn't learn the truth about her mother,

we can protect her.

Okay?

What time is the announcement?

- You're not going dressed like that. - Sorry, I'm not going with you.

Of course you are. You're my wife.

Yes, but I'm not some decorative piece of furniture.

Anyway, I've got plans for dinner tonight.

- If you told me earlier... - Ah, please don't start.

I didn't know till now. Your lady friends can wait.

Damn it!

No, Simón. You don't need me.

Rogelio and you are more than enough.

- Let's see. - I'm not done yet.

Mm.

No. The blue looks better on you.

Did you see Alice?

Yes. It's just that last night,

my mom had an anxiety attack, and she's sedated.

The head nurse told you that?

Listen, Caridad, your mom got up on her own

and tried to write something on a canvas.

Did she tell you about the pills?

What do you mean?

We found some pills your mother was hiding.

That's not anxiety.

Hugo.

Tell me what's going on.

That's all I know.

But if I were you, I'd take your mother somewhere else.

MENTAL HOSPITAL - MANAGEMENT

Hello?

Hello. What's wrong?

Simón, I was calling about Manny.

She's disappeared. I haven't heard from her since yesterday.

Well, what do you mean?

She must be with a friend or her boyfriend.

No, no!

She doesn't have a boyfriend.

She hasn't called me, and she's not answering her phone.

I think something's happened to her.

Look, Susana, Manny knows how to defend herself.

Don't you think you might be worrying over nothing?

No. No, it's not just that.

Some guy is parked

outside the building since this morning, and he keeps looking over here.

- Do you recognize him? - No.

I'm scared, Simón.

I'm gonna call the police. What if he knows Manny?

Get moving. Move out of there. I'll call you later.

I wouldn't worry about it.

It's probably someone's driver is waiting.

Waiting all day?

No, I'm sure she's in danger, Simón. Please, what can we do?

Look, I'm just about to attend a very important event.

As soon as it's finished, I'll call you, okay?

Are you in Manny's apartment?

Yes.

Okay. Stay there in case she comes back.

And calm down. There must be a logical explanation for all this.

All right, then.

Thank you, Simón. Goodbye.

I've got the rent money right here, doña Julia.

Look, if you wanna get more clients,

I'd be more than happy to give you a good discount

on fliers, business cards,

or a nice poster that you can hang on the front door.

Whatever you'd like, my dear.

Well, I was thinking of trying digital advertising.

I just opened an Instagram account.

I have 16 followers.

Well, I'm sure if you keep posting cool stuff here every day,

it won't be long before your account gets more popular.

This is the place. Check in there. I'll go in on the other side.

- Okay. - I think I'd better go and hide.

Have you seen the old lady from the print store?

Someone told your wife everything.

She's going to kick you out tonight.

Let's go, Martínez.

Bautista, thank you so much for not ratting me out.

So tell me,

you... you can see the future, for real?

Let me get that.

Excuse me. Excuse me, but I'm looking for Manny.

She hasn't shown up.

Customers from the bar are not allowed in here.

No, I know. Just tell me if she's working today.

Would you, please? I'm her mom.

Listen, do I look like her babysitter or what?

Get out of here. Come on!

Tell me. What's the matter?

Goddammit! I'll be right there.

Is it true? You're Manny's mom?

Yes.

- Nina. - Hello. I'm Susana.

So how much do you need this time?

This time I need

fifteen thousand dollars.

But this is the last time I'll ask you for money.

Really, the last time.

Please, Mom.

The last time.

Without your father finding out, maybe eight or nine. No more.

Okay, okay. Anything's good.

Actually, what I really need is an investor.

In fact, I was thinking about Uncle Ignacio.

He already has two bars in California.

I think he might be interested in the deal. What do you think?

- But if your dad finds out... - I know, I know. He'll be mad at me.

But if you don't say anything... Hm? I won't say anything, that's for sure.

Okay.

But you have to tell me who's the girl that's driving you crazy.

- I knew it. You're so nosy. - Come on. Who is she?

- No, Mom. Right now... - Come on.

I'd rather wait and, you know, see how things are going.

Yeah, but tell me her name, how you got to know her!

Well, okay, I'll tell you.

- Don't laugh. - Mm-hmm.

It was destiny.

- Mom, you said you wouldn't laugh. - I'm not laughing.

Actually, this woman, she saved my life.

Oh, are you serious?

Yes.

I actually thought I'd die before this day came.

But we're 30 days away from your nomination.

Thirty days is a pretty long time.

Ah, it's one month.

Besides, I'm in perfect health.

Bernardo says that they're going to launch an in-depth investigation

into my private life and that of my family.

Well, we already knew that.

And we have don't have anything to worry about.

No, you don't. Never.

Neither do you.

That's unless there's something I don't know about.

Simón, you finally arrived.

Susana is here. She is stressed out over Manny.

She's convinced that someone hurt her.

And why are you whispering?

Because she's in the living room.

She was waiting at the door when I arrived, bawling like a child.

She also said she called you.

Susana?

Yes. My sister. She's in Mexico.

She came back from Spain. Didn't Simón tell you?

Please, can you come with me? I can't cope with this alone.

Is that the Susana that...

This is Pérez.

Pérez, where the hell are you, idiot?

Manny's bartender friend told me she hasn't seen her

and that she doesn't know anything.

She only said that she was really upset that day and hasn't been back.

But, Auntie, didn't Manny tell you some guy had hit her the other day?

Well, no, she doesn't tell me much about her work

because she knows I worry.

So that guy possibly threatened her or followed her.

And someone is watching her apartment too.

Anything missing from her apartment?

The question is, is there a sign or any evidence to show

that someone really did take her by force?

Well, let's see.

One bag, her laptop computer are missing. Some clothes also.

No, no, no. She didn't go on vacation.

Look, she's not responding to my calls or my text messages. This is not normal.

Well, in that case, we should wait.

And let's say that if by this Thursday

we haven't heard anything, then don't worry,

I promise I'll file the report myself at the police station. You have my word.

Besides, Manny will be fine, Auntie. I know it.

She's tough. She can handle herself.

- She'll be all right. - Yes, yes.

- You want some? - No, thank you.

Drinking alone is boring.

What's your name?

I've seen you go out and come back alone.

And that body. Mmm.

I can imagine it naked.

Where's your man, huh?

What? Tonight he's not gonna give you your shot of... Mmm.

The walls in this building are paper thin.

And the doors are even worse. It's better than porno.

Let me come in.

Come on! Let me come in!

No! No, no.

What happened?

I simply just couldn't do it.

I was going to stab him, but then I remembered Matilde.

You must report that asshole to the police, Bautista.

Why?

So that when I go to the police, they ask me why I smiled at that scumbag?

Or why I was wearing a miniskirt?

In their opinion, it's always our fault. You should know that by now.

Okay.

Then we must talk to Lorenzo.

Maybe he can give that scumbag a good scare.

And when he sees me alone, what?

Moving from there is my only option.

And you...

you didn't foresee this was gonna happen?

That he was gonna rape you?

It's impossible for me to see my own future.

I can't read my tarot cards either.

It's like the universe doesn't allow it.

But you saw the accident.

That's a memory, and it's strange.

Okay, I'll get your bed ready.

Valentina.

Thank you.

It's really good to know I've got someone to go to when I need some help.

That's the least you can expect from your sister.

Bautista, you can stay here for as long as you need.

Good morning.

The guy I'm looking for had sex with five women

and got them all pregnant.

Did he... did he rape them?

I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised.

They didn't say anything to anyone, not even their daughters.

I found out from one of them

who is determined to know who her father is.

And where are the women?

Two of them passed away.

One has brain damage from an overdose.

Another one disappeared, and no one knows who the other one is.

I can't wait till the day when men finally take responsibility

for what they do with their pricks.

What's up, bro? How are you?

Couldn't be better.

Hey, do you have any time to meet up today or tomorrow?

I don't think I can, man. I have a ton of work.

The attorney arrives on Wednesday.

I have the mayor of who knows where today and tomorrow.

Okay, no problem. We'll use what we have.

Yeah, do it with whatever you have.

- Okay. Well, let me know when you're free. - Okay.

Uh, I gotta run.

I'm sorry, sir.

- Do they have women in there? - No, this is their meeting place.

They're all mid-level gangsters,

but they're the quickest way to get to the heads of the network.

So who are all those guys on the list you gave me the other day?

Beneficiaries of the business.

Who's that?

I don't know. Never seen him before.

Look, I don't think anyone is trying to harm Alice.

The only thing the foundation has done is take good care of her.

But why?

In exchange for what? They didn't know her.

Mother, please tell me the truth.

I need to know what happened.

All we did was

include her in studies to investigate new treatments.

It was her only hope, Caridad. What else could we have done?

Dr. Zapata? Good evening.

I'm calling because you told me to report anything out of the ordinary

with Alice McAllister.

Apparently,

she is reacting.

How nice of them.

That explains why your mom's mental health hasn't improved in 20 years.

Let's start by figuring out who the owners of the foundation are.

What did you say it was called?

That's really the worst part of it.

On top of that, it's named after a woman.

The Eloísa Santisteban Foundation.

What's this?

Bautista, what happened?

Tell them.

IS THIS FATE AGAIN? VALENTINA'S MARKET

Valentina, the session starts in 40 minutes.

- I'll be in the car. - I'm coming.

I'll be at the House of Representatives all day until dawn.

I need you to look for information on a foundation called Eloísa Santisteban.

Okay? I need to know who works there,

who the owners are, board members, everything. See you.

- Does this have to do with the list? - I just have a feeling.

She just has a feeling. Let's see...

- Good morning. - Are you here for the bags?

- This has just arrived for you. - Oh, thank you.

Mom, I hope you're all right. Don't worry about me. I'm fine.

I can't explain much right now.

It came a while ago.

Do you still think there's something that could give us a clue in there?

I don't know.

What I do know is that it's all that's left of my mom.

"Eloísa Santisteban. The Marroquín family."

WHO IS SIMÓN MARROQUÍN?

Simón Marroquin. Please leave a message.

No.

Don't you like that?

Señora Catalina, what are you doing here?

Everything is a lie, Grace.

All of it.

This.

And this.

Valentina.

Someone else knows who your father is.

Did you know he had a daughter?

No, you didn't. Of course not.

And he doesn't know either.

Look. This letter arrived a year ago, but I didn't give it to him.

He hasn't seen it.

"Simón, you never would have heard from me..."

"...but I'm about to die."

...and my daughter Valentina, your daughter,

will be alone in the world.

Ah, you bastard!

You bastard!

That's right, Simón.

I didn't have an abortion as you told me to do

because I loved her ever since I knew she was inside me.

Valentina doesn't know you exist and never will

unless, after all these years,

you finally find a place for her in your heart.
