Hello. We haven't met before.

"Hello. We haven't met before."

- My name is Els. - "My name is Els."

- Nice to meet you. - "Nice to meet you."

- I live in Zwolle. - "I live in Zwolle."

My hobbies are hiking and deep sea diving

"My hobbies are hiking and sea...

Dive... diving."

"I am... most..."

"I am most grateful to you."

"I am most grateful to you."

Okay.

Congratulations, you found me.

Let's get it over with, shall we?

Take the picture because I would like to eat this while it's still hot.

- Oh, no, that's not why I'm here. - Oh, no?

I'm with the Dutch Royal House.

- You're not with the press? - Do I look like press?

I apologize Miss Zorreguieta, an email was sent to announce my arrival,

I'm here to help you with your integration.

My name is Thomas Wagenaar.

Wagenaar, yes, of course, I'm sorry, Alex told me, yes, I'm...

Do you like fries?

So how was your first weekend in Brussels?

Cold.

But the city is much bigger than I expected,

it kind of feels old and new at the same time

and the buildings, the people...

- Ketchup or mayonnaise? - No.

Everything looks so different from Buenos Aires.

I had planned on being here upon your arrival

but unfortunately something urgent came up.

Well, you're not the only one.

Well, you must know these are demanding times

for his royal highness, but he sends his regards.

Enjoy your meal.

I thought I might as well start.

Excellent.

Now, in the meantime, you'll be studying history and culture of The Netherlands.

You have a tight schedule.

The mornings are committed to the Dutch language,

speaking, reading, writing, of course.

Now this, will be your Bible,

I suggest you have it with you at all times.

Bear in mind that from now on all eyes are on you, Miss Zorreguieta,

so be careful of the things you do and say.

Nobody knows me here, so...

No alcohol or smoking in public.

Everything. Your hair, your clothes,

even the way you walk will be under a magnifying glass.

You're going to teach me how to walk?

I've been told you love movies,

so I took the liberty of selecting a few Dutch films,

and they are as entertaining

as they are insightful in the Dutch history.

The afternoons will be dedicated to the state law

and the Dutch cultural history.

We'll conclude our days by practicing etiquette and protocols.

Well, I grew up in a world of etiquette so that won't be a problem.

Oh, no, no, it's fine, you don't have to do that.

It's fine.

Well, leave you to it then.

If there's anything I can help you with, don't hesitate to contact me.

You can reach me at this number, day and night.

Welcome to Brussels, Miss Zorreguieta.

One more thing.

Fridge.

"Fridge..."

Dulche de leche for my cookie. Hopefully you feel home soon. Love, A.

I have just renounced from the government

I hereby introduce Beatrix...

Your new queen.

Compatriots.

Today we are all starting...

A new phase for Argentina.

We know that these are hard and difficult times.

But there is no doubt whatsoever

that we Argentinians will start all over again.

- Turn off that sham. - Dad.

Have you seen the Plaza de Mayo?

Come on, we should go!

Why? To listen to that impostor Alfonsin?

After seven long years of military dictatorship, it is now up

to the new democratically elected President Alfonsin

to come clean and put an end to oppressio and allow justice to prevail.

The new Defense Minister...

Finally, we're going to school on our own.

Don't forget your lunch.

Why can't I just buy lunch at the cafeteria like all my friends?

Because money doesn't grow on trees, chiquita .

- Do you know what I cooked for you? - Schnitzel.

- Bye, Tincho. Be careful, darling. - Bye, mom.

Come on, guys, hurry, you're late.

Máxi.

Bye.

Come on, girl.

- What? - They'll kill us if we're late again.

We'll be fine.

Did you study?

- Did you? - Obviously.

Máxi.

- Máxi. - Dad.

You'd forget your head, if it weren't stuck.

And remember, today is Tristana's first day at school.

I promised her father you'd look after her.

- Sure. - Okay?

- Have a nice day, ladies. - You too, Jorge.

See you tonight, dad.

And no cigarettes for Tristana, she's asthmatic.

- Languages are easy for you, math for me. - Right, go on and prove it.

- No. - Girl, brackets.

- Hey girls. - Hey Sammy.

- How are you? - Hi Sammy.

- How are you? - Hi.

Tristana.

- Hi. - Hello.

- I'm Máxima Zorreguieta. - Right, hi!

- These are my friends. Vale, Flo, Sam. - Hi.

- Will you join us? - Yes, sure.

- How are you? - Good.

Miss Maccio, I see you've already made friends, good.

- Welcome, dear. - Thank you.

Welcome, Máxima will show you around and explain everything, okay?

I'll take good care of her, miss.

In the seventeenth century,

the English trade in India expanded rapidly

leading to the establishment of many trading posts and factories

across the country.

However, by the end of the century,

the relationship with the Mughal rulers had worsened significantly.

Any further British requests for trading privileges had be...

Miss Maccio, would you like to share your thoughts?

Yes, I would like to know why we are discussing the British colonies...

At this moment.

I mean, we're the ones writing history right now.

The election of the new president is causing a landslide.

Out there.

I must say, I'm quite disappointed.

Your classmate hasn't taken the responsibility

to point out the most important rule we abide here at Northlands.

Miss Zorreguieta?

We must always speak English

within the walls of Northlands.

However, this being your first day at Northlands,

I'll forgive you your ignorance.

As I was saying, these so called conflicts...

I'm sorry.

...came to be known as the Anglo-Mughal War.

Hello.

Turn the television off.

I want to watch.

For Christ' sake, Maria, why? It will only upset you more.

It's just a bunch of lying crooks. It's just an ordinary rabble-rousing.

I don't care, I want to know. Turn it up. Jorge, please.

You stubborn woman.

On his first day, president Alfonsín directly made clear his political agenda.

He stated that the Junta criminals will receive the punishment they deserve.

He will personally appoint a committee...

To investigate the disappearances of thousands of our loved ones.

Perfect.

Then they'll see half of them are back already.

Miss Zorreguieta.

Or may I call you Máxima?

May I offer you this on behalf of the Dutch people, please?

No, thank you.

You must be very happy with Willem Alexander, right?

I'm not allowed to say anything, thank you.

You're going to be our new queen.

There's quite some commotion about your father, who...

Was a minister in Videla's regime.

Quite some murders were committed back then, huh?

Do you want to distance yourself from your father's past?

Thank you.

If you hold this, I'll help you with your bags.

- No, no. - You don't want the flowers?

We think that is very unfriendly.

Thank you.

- That's it, then. - Thank you.

I have to go to my work.

Good luck to you. You're a beautiful woman, though.

So, that concludes The Week of Willibrord

Mister Frequin is quite famous for his somewhat direct method of approach,

but don't worry about it.

How did they find me?

It wasn't me.

Given the situation, it would be wise to wear this,

from now on.

Shall we?

Thus the young republic was able to find allies.

In this respect the diplomatic initiatives of the republic's new leader,

Johan van Oldenbarnevelt,

were more successful than those of William of Orange.

Both men were superb diplomats,

but Oldenbarnevelt just had more to offer.

You know what?

Change of plans.

I can't take your hand.

You've worked against me my whole life.

Or cooperated.

- Or cooperated? - "Cooperated"?

Cooperated.

It won an Oscar for best foreign film.

Fedja van Huêt, he's one of our most talented actors.

My father made us watch lots of movies.

So, if I say... "You're gonna need a bigger boat"?

Jaws .

- "Well, nobody's perfect". - Some Like it Hot.

- "Life is like a box of ch..." - Forrest Gump.

- You'll have to do better than that. - Okay, okay.

"Life moves pretty fast,"

"if you don't stop and look around once in a while you could miss it".

- I have no idea. - Seriously?

Ferris Bueller's Day Off .

- Classic. I'll bring it next time. - Okay, my turn.

Your turn.

"Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads".

Back to the Future .

"I'll have what she's having".

When Harry Met Sally .

Meg Ryan was phenomenal in that movie.

- "Phenomenal?" - Phenomenal.

- As in phenomenal? - M-hm.

Okay.

Wait for it, ah.

"Now, I wanna dance, I wanna win,"

"I want that trophy, so dance good".

Then I would say...

- Pulp Fiction. - Pulp Fiction. Good.

"Nobody puts baby in a corner".

Dirty Dancing.

Patrick Swayze, loved it.

- "What's in the box?" - Seven.

"Um, you had me at..."

- "Hello". - "Hello".

Jerry Maguire.

"Show me the money".

I paid very close attention.

Evidently.

You're making leaps in progress.

- My Dutch stroopwafel . - Those are tasty.

- "Tasty". - "Tasty".

Very tasty, I know.

How do you do the "aul"?

- The "ui", you mean? - "Ui".

- "Ui". - "Ui".

So, you do it too far in the back of your mouth,

do it more in the front like "ui".

- "Ui". - "Ui".

Yes.

So, how's Thomas?

- Not as stiff as he looks. - No?

Just a couple more months.

But first you have to pronounce the "ui" properly.

I've got tickets for the theater tomorrow,

and Thomas recommended this great Italian restaurant that we can go to.

Well, I have to leave this afternoon.

I have to go to Japan earlier than expected.

I thought you knew.

Sorry.

No, it's-it's fine.

- Hello, Máxi . - Hi.

How is everything going in Brussels?

I spend 24 hours a day submerged in books.

That's what you're good at.

How are things there?

Your mom has a new hobby, gardening.

The house is full of pots and plants.

We had to do something, now that everyone has left the house.

- Is the press still bothering you? - It's not too bad.

If I'd known they'd be so interested in me,

I would have gone to Pablo for a new haircut.

We won't let what they say get to us.

Right?

No.

Your mom has been asking all day

if Alex and you will come to Las Escobas for Christmas.

Yes, we're looking forward to it.

So are we.

Sweetie...

- Tell me something in Dutch? - No...

Come on, tell me something.

I miss you.

"I miss you."

I miss you.

I'm so proud of you.

Well, we all are.

I miss you, Dad.

- Is she here already? - Yes.

Loli?

- Your boots. - Where is she?

Your boots, honey.

- Hi. - How are you?

- Did it hurt? - A little.

- Your mom let you? - She never said anything.

My mother would never let me.

Máxi!

It's your body, your life. No one has a say about that.

Well, your mom is different.

- And? What do you think? - I preferred your previous work.

At the academy, we learn to make real art.

Art with a message.

So, what's the message?

What do you think?

Personally...

It gives me the creeps.

Hey!

Life isn't all fun.

Next up is Barbara. The K.

Koala. K-O-A-L-A.

Cooking. C-O-O-K-I-N-G.

Clamp. C-L-A-M-P.

Willem Alexander is not allowed to marry Máxima,

and if he does, he'll have to abdicate the throne,

according to Mr. Maurik, former ambassado of The Netherlands to UNESCO.

Why do you think that?

If this was a marriage between two ordinary people,

I wouldn't have any issues with that, that would be up to them.

But now, we'll end up with a queen...

Whose father is complicit in mass murders

mass rape, mass torture.

He cannot have been unaware of the crimes of the Videla regime.

In fact, there is evidence that shows

that he was not merely a complicit,

but a propagandist of the regime.

What does it mean?

Really it means nothing.

Maurik is not going to get far.

Yes, but if it does go to court,

can he go to jail?

Yes, I'm coming. Sorry I've got to go, so I'll call you in a few hours.

No, no, Alex, please, please, I need to understand.

What's going on?

Baby, I will call you in a bit. Yes? I love you.

Alex!

Stop all this, Dolores.

No, why can't I ask questions?

Questions? You're not asking questions.

You're accusing me... and talking about things you know nothing of.

I'm not making this up, it's in the report.

Here it is, read it!

Jorge! My God.

The kids are inside.

Read it?

Who are you to talk to me like that?

You never want to listen.

No, you repeat everything that your leftist mother says.

You son of a bitch!

- Guys, just play 'truco'. - What's up?

- Leave my house. - Nothing, that's your father's business.

Dolores is leaving, mom.

Martin, let's play a game.

Loli!

Why are you going?

I love you, but I can't anymore.

What happened?

- Lola, why do you have to leave? - Ask him.

THE SHOCKING "NUNCA MÁS" REPORT

Cool place, this.

You work here?

Every night?

It's time for some fresh air, Miss Zorreguieta.

Hey!

Are you her dad?

How did you find me?

You called me.

Chop chop.

Bye-bye.

You have a bad influence on my eating habits.

I'm so embarrassed.

No need at all.

At least I get the experience of being called a dad.

My godchild.

She has a mind of her own but she's a sweetheart.

Beautiful.

Who is that?

My husband.

For 25 years.

- Hm? - Twenty-five years.

- You're a lucky man. - I am indeed.

Who do you see me as?

Does it matter?

Yes, it does.

To me.

Do you see me as a girlfriend of his royal highness?

Do you see me as a member of the Argentinian elite?

Do you see me as a daughter of a war criminal?

I see an intelligent, ambitious young woman,

who's about to make the most important decision of her life.

Let's get you home, dear.

Chop chop.

Finally! Where were you guys?

Who is that?

No idea.

Who is that?

Tiziano Iachetti, one of James' friends.

Sure you're having another one?

Just saying, there has to be enough for everyone.

I hate Cynthia.

- They say her parents bought her exams. - Really?

Yes.

- Hey, girls. - Hi.

- How are you doing? - Good.

Girls, meet Tiziano.

Tiziano, these are Vale, Tris, Máx and Flo.

My sister's friends.

I call them the archbishops.

- I'm the president. - And I'm vice-president.

Great.

- Have fun. - Thanks.

Bye.

Stay cool, right?

Let's dance?

- Máxima, do you know what time it is? - I'm sorry.

What are you wearing?

Just leave me alone, mom.

- I was worried about you. - I'm fine.

Where are your braces?

You lost your braces again, you idiot?

I can take care of myself.

As long as you keep losing your braces, you'll listen to me.

It's my life.

They're my teeth and it's my body!

Go to hell.

Fucking go to hell!

Sam, your turn.

- Pedro. - Yes, Pedro.

Everything he said, all that flirting... Bye Pedro.

- I'm over you. - What an idiot.

Bye, Pedro.

As for me, I'll leave my doubts behind.

All my dark thoughts.

I'll start with a clean slate. London, here I come.

For me, it's the hockey field, girls.

I'll never again force myself to train, to score goals, it's over, bye.

Well done.

- I can't think of anything to say. - Come on.

I don't know what to say.

Sometimes, I feel like...

I have to leave, too.

Like something is out there, waiting for me.

But I don't know what.

I have no idea.

I don't want things to change.

I want us to stay here.

Together.

Forever.

- The archbishops will always be together. - Yes.

No matter where we are, we'll always be together.

Wherever we are.

Fox and Hare are in Owl's nest.

Owl has an egg.

Whose egg is it?

Owl doesn't know and Fox doesn't know.

Hey, princess.

- Hey. - Tell me, how's life in Brussels?

You first.

Well Christmas holidays are coming up so it's crazy here on the slopes,

and I'm teaching children too now, so it's hell on earth.

What's up, Máx?

I don't know if I can stand it here much longer.

I wake up alone, I go to work,

I come home, study like an idiot and then fall asleep. Alone.

I live the life of a nun.

Listen, I've been listening to you naggin about Europe for years,

how much you wanted to go there.

And now you're there, what's happening? You're going to enjoy it.

You know what you should do? Turn it into something fun.

Go out, have a good time, go into town,

buy something nice and sexy for when your prince comes.

I'm serious Máx, you deserve it.

- Sweetie, I need to go, I love you, bye. - Bye.

Miss Zorreguieta.

- Thank you. - One question, please.

I'm enjoying my time in Brussels.

Have a nice day.

Any comments on the rumors about the prince and Emily Bremers?

WILLEM ALEXANDER SPOTTED INTIMATELY WITH EX EMILY!

I'm not available right now. Please leave a message.

Hello, yes, this is Máxima Zorreguieta,

I would like to reschedule a flight to Buenos Aires.

Yes, as soon as possible.

Yes, I'll wait.

Good afternoon.

You can come in, but I'm leaving.

- What? - I'm done.

I'm done with the press, with Brussels, with Alex, with 'Olden-Vanbarnevelt'.

You said that I was about to make

one of the most important decisions of my life?

I just did.

Thank you though.

For everything.

Oh, and would you be so kind and call me a cab?

Thank you.

Surprise!

It's a surprise.

I thought I'd come a day early.

What are you...?

I'm going home, that's what.

And don't even think of coming for Christmas.

Go to hell.

I'm sorry, Máx, you really have to help me out here.

You have no idea what's going on? Not a single clue?

No?

This is what's going on.

Okay.

Fuck.

Listen, she just came to pick up some stuff, okay?

- Do you think I'm stupid? - I don't know, do you believe this?

What else have you been doing while I'm stuck in this place?

So that's what you think?

- What else are you thinking? - Who the hell do you think I am?

- Who the hell do you think I am? - Well, I don't know, tell me!

So all of a sudden you start believing the press?

Fuck you.

- Fuck you. - Okay.

Don't even think about following me.
