[Carpado] We always have these guards in our heads

telling us what to do and not to do.

[woman sobbing]

[Carpado] How many lives have you taken?

Because you don't look like a savior.

[Jhon] Hey.

Hey.

Are you okay?

Yes.

Yes.

The room looks nice, right?

Do you think he'll like it?

Hmm.

Yes, I'm sure he'll love it.

Thank you so much for doing this.

And I'm sorry I couldn't help you.

That's all right.

All that matters is that you're okay.

Let's go back to bed.

[therapist] Jhon, can I ask you about your love life?

What do you mean by love life?

Well, I mean your sex life.

[Jhon] No. I think that's very personal.

That's my private life, right?

[therapist] Jhon, silence won't help.

You're no less of a man for talking about this.

When you've been away for long, and then come back,

it's hard to get back on track.

It's hard to be normal again.

Have you talked to Verónica about this?

[Jhon] No, we don't talk about those things.

[therapist] It's very common for people who experienced

isolation and violent situations,

to find it hard restart their emotional lives.

I promise I'll be here.

I'll be here.

We'll show people why we are...

DANIELA LEÓN CANDIDATE TO PRESIDENCY

...the best option for this country.

That's all that matters.

Because in Colombia,

you can become president with honesty.

And we will set an example!

[people cheering]

Words are gone with the wind.

But not the ideas.

[Ernesto] Tell that to her.

[Daniela] Don't be so hard on her, Ernesto.

She's doing her job.

Plotting?

Backstabbing? Scamming?

Winning.

[Jhon] I understand, sir. But maybe you have a job in something...

Okay. Thank you very much.

Have you tried this one? Look.

Supermarket shelf-filling.

You're funny today.

I fell in love in a supermarket.

"I fell in love in a supermarket."

That sounds like a sad song.

Maybe you want to see me in a parrot outfit again?

[scoffs]

Maybe it's easier to look online?

Surely, but the thing is I can't use that thing well yet.

I'll help you. Tonight, if you want to.

Look, bouncer for a club. Can you imagine me doing that?

So you can take me dancing every night.

-Dancing? -Yes.

Vero, I need you in Trauma 1.

-Yeah? Let's go. -Yes. Doctor, this is Jhon.

Well, my love, I have to go.

Bye.

And think about the neighbor's barbecue

They've asked me again, I feel sorry for them.

Mmm.

Bye.

[Jhon] "Night guard in a parking lot."

The job's pretty easy.

You give them the receipt with the time on it, and charge them.

When they fill up those spaces, you ask for the keys and park them.

You can drive, right?

Yes, sir.

We're open 24 hours,

so you better beware, because there are a lot of burglars.

And what...

was your previous job?

In a supermarket.

In security for the supermarket?

No, sir. Not security.

Hmm. But have you worked in security?

Yes, something like that.

Look...

-Jhon. -Jhon.

I could give you the job right now.

But I'm not that stupid.

We get cool rides at night here

because there's a high-end brothel filled with Venezuelans nearby.

But if you don't bring some references, I'll never let you in again.

Because someone must vouch for you, right?

Hmm.

[door opens]

[dog whimpering]

[dog continues whimpering]

Mallarino?

Good morning.

I'm Carmen Caicedo, advisor for Daniela León. Welcome.

I'm sorry, but there must be a misunderstanding.

What do you mean?

I thought the interview was with the candidate.

At the moment, the candidate's agenda has no room for personal interviews.

But I assure you I'm the right person to answer all your questions.

And I'll be glad to do so.

Thank you. Thank you, you've been so nice.

Did you get the campaign's agenda?

The candidate gives a press conference every day.

Yes. Yes, I know.

But it's not the campaign I want to discuss with her.

You can speak freely, I'll convey the information.

I wanted to ask her some questions

about the bulletproof vest she wore the day of the attack.

She'll know exactly what I'm talking about.

Tell her to call me.

Of course.

Have a good day.

[Jhon] There. Don't worry, I'll be gentle, see?

I know what I'm doing, though it may not seem like it.

Here.

Smell this leaf.

No! Don't eat it. It's not food.

I'll place it here. No, don't eat it!

I'll tell you something.

When I was up there, in the jungle,

I had a dog.

His name was Mako.

But he wasn't pretty like you.

He was an ugly fucker. And so stupid.

But I loved him anyway.

Some fucking paramilitaries killed him.

But don't worry, girl. I got them, too.

What will your name be? Let me see.

Kora! You like it?

Kora! [chuckles]

[repeatedly] Kora!

I like that name, too.

Kora is nice.

I'll pick all this up later.

And whose is it?

No one. I found her on the street.

How will we take care of a dog, Jhon?

Don't worry, I'll find a good home for her.

But after her paw heals, I don't want to leave her like that.

[doorbell ringing]

I'll get that.

Come, Kora! Let's go.

[Verónica] Hello, Kora!

Hi, beautiful. Hello.

Hey, Jhon!

Hey, Mario.

What's up!

-Hello, Mario! -Verónica!

Weren't you coming in two weeks?

Yes, but life is full of surprises.

I finished some papers earlier and I could change my flight.

Finally on vacation!

You even have a dog. What a pretty house.

[Verónica] Um...

Did I interrupt something?

-No, no. -No, not at all.

No, Mario, how can you think that? Did you have breakfast?

-No! -What do you want me to cook?

Can you heat that?

Kora! Come here.

How did you get home from the airport?

[Mario] I took an Uber.

My grandad gave me a credit card.

How is your grandfather?

How's grandma?

As you know, she wanted to go to the country and live there again.

You didn't ask her to live here?

-Yes. -Yes! Of course, we did.

But you know her, she never liked the city, so she preferred to go back.

How do you pay for this big house?

The government helps us.

Do you have a job?

Yes. Of course, I do.

I'm actually changing jobs right now.

[Mario] That's good.

Okay. I'd better organize my stuff.

Daniela, there's someone here to see you.

[Daniela] What is he doing here?

Just listen to him.

Maybe he has something interesting to offer.

[Mérida] I want to congratulate you on the results of the first round.

No, spare me the flattering, Mérida.

Tell me, how is Cardona?

Did he go underground?

Cardona is no longer our problem. His wife and the party left him.

It's his problem who he's sexting with.

What concerns us both right now is our voters.

Your voters are smart.

They'll choose wisely in the second round.

Yes. But we can make them even smarter.

-At what cost? -The vice presidency.

From your people, who is better than Ernesto?

At being mediocre? No one.

Do you think it's good for me to be associated with an era

of corruption and inequality?

Let me tell you, things are going to change.

No more political favors.

That's what the new guys say every time before starting, Daniela.

They come in full of rebellion.

But it's not long before they realize the tide is stronger than you.

You ever think you'd be more successful as a writer rather than a politician?

We, as politicians, write the history.

Let's write it together.

A coalition with the right wing?

Where would it takes us?

Try me.

Guarantee the universal rural access to school.

Yes, but increasing the cost.

A plan to eradicate coca farming.

The kids would go to school

knowing someday they'd earn more money than their illiterate parents.

I can see that cost won't be affordable without the rise to the military expense.

Close all the mines that don't have the independent quality requirements.

No, and you know why?

You'd be the first one that won't want to close them.

Oh, really?

33% of Colombian energy comes from fossils.

Do you want me to raise the electric bill to the voters?

And the sick leaves? And the chronic diseases?

The miners prefer the sick leaves and the chronic diseases to hunger.

Look, Daniela. My party has governed for a long time.

Don't confuse realism with cynicism.

I understand you.

Your party won't be in power,

and you fear the winners will look under the carpet.

Right?

But Cardona's voters don't have a candidate anymore.

And they won't let Navas win.

So do the math,

and tell me if I actually need you right now.

This isn't just about the voters, Daniela.

We have the majority in Congress and... [clicks tongue]

You know a president is nobody without the Congress.

Think about it.

I have nothing to think about.

Accept defeat.

And take the time to get back on your feet.

Because we will need you as the opposition.

[Daniela] It's not a clean alliance.

If I join Mérida and his court, Carmen,

I'll lose all my principles.

Principles come and go. Votes don't.

I'm warning you one last time, Daniela.

If you adopt a radical position, it will cost us the presidency.

What's so radical?

Closing a polluting mine?

Access to university for everyone?

Those mines generate jobs, right?

Yes, poorly paid.

So don't close the mines. Improve them.

You don't get how far fear goes.

It's fear that votes on election day.

Fear of losing a job,

and that there won't oppotunities for anybody.

Every time you talk about closing a mine, there's thunder. Can't you hear it?

It's panic spreading through millions of voters.

Today I saw Mallarino, the journalist.

She mentioned a bulletproof vest from the day of the attack.

I was wearing a vest.

Every high-risk target wears one.

What is the news in that?

Neighbor! Don't forget the barbecue!

See, Kora?

When your paw's better, we have a barbecue.

[Caldera] Nice dog.

Bitch.

Did she get hurt?

Yes.

For not minding her own business.

Did you bring the reference letter?

You haven't finished your previous job.

That family man role doesn't suit you.

Did you bring the letter?

There are six lost missiles in Bogotá.

You're not sleeping well.

[hip-hop music playing]

Hey!

I didn't know you were here.

I flew in this morning.

What about the "gringos"?

They're not very nice.

And your grandfather?

He wanted me to be like my mom. And I never met my mom.

Why didn't you tell me you were coming?

You never answered my messages.

My father.

That's your new boyfriend?

Yes, we've been dating for two months.

Are you going to stay?

It was great seeing you.

Mario...

Mario.

Vero, I found a job!

You don't say hi?

Why are you here?

Where are your manners?

That's how you greet an old friend?

I even brought you some moonshine.

Did you decorate the house?

[chuckles] Eh?

A man does anything for his family, Yei Yei.

For example, buying a house like this

with the money you stole from me.

[door unlocking]

[chuckles]

I know who'll drink with me. Cheers, kid!

[Jhon] Leave.

[door opens and closes]

I don't want to cause a family problem--

What the fuck do you want?

What do I want?

I'm just visiting a friend.

When you are alone in life, no family, no one to talk to,

you come to your friends and ask for favors.

But I'm not sure if you owe me or I owe you the favor.

Look, sissy,

I kept you out of jail.

Don't fuck with me.

Tomorrow, we're meeting here.

I don't do that anymore.

Even with six fucking missiles out there and lord knows who the fuck has them?

How do you know about that?

I have contacts, too.

Yei Yei, I want to be with the good guys.

I want to be on the right side.

I've had it, man. I'm done. For real.

Being on the run, living like shit.

I want what happened to you.

What your friend did for you.

Getting a clean file. I want that, too.

I want my sins forgiven.

Take your mask off,

stop lying.

I know what a motherfucker you are,

as I know you won't be able to sleep

knowing the missiles being on the street is your fault.

Ah.

My moonshine.

Since I know you're not having any, I'll drink it on my way.

[fire alarm ringing]

NAME - DANIELA SURNAME - LEÓN

ADMISSION REGISTRY 2018 DANIELA LEÓN

PATIENT - DANIELA LEÓN

Go.

Kora!

Kora!

What's up?

I wanted to apologize for what just happened.

Some things never change, Jhon.

That's okay.

Do you have something to say?

No. It's okay.

-Did you hang out with your friends? -I'm okay. Really.

But tell me, where are you going?

-To work. -With that guy?

No. I got a job in security for a parking lot.

[scoffs]

Very good.

[Mario sighs]

Did I tell you already that I like Verónica for you?

Well, I like her.

So take care of her.

If you can.

Hey,

-are you finally staying here? Or-- -You want me to leave?

No. It's not like that. Don't say that.

It's just you come here out of nowhere, you don't tell anyone,

but I'm your dad, and I want to know what you want to do. If you have plans.

Go to college? Something like that?

I just wanted to see grandma.

You and your grandma are the most important thing for me.

You are my family.

And that's why Grandma went back to the country, right, Jhon?

Why are you saying all this?

How did it go down?

Did she decide to leave?

Or did someone give her a little push?

[dog whimpering]

[Jhon] Stay here quietly, yeah?

Where did you find her?

I'm very sorry, but she wouldn't stay home.

She follows me around, so I brought her.

"Stay home"? This fucker's mine.

What do you mean, yours? I found her outside, and her paw was hurt.

She escaped! Alexis!

Alexis!

Look who showed up.

Take her to the back. No food so she'll learn to behave.

Why won't you feed her?

None of your business.

I don't think you should treat her that way.

Come on, man, fired on the first day? Really?

Come, I'll explain about the receipts.

[Alex reading] "Date of entry: March 22nd, 2018, 6:53.

Check out date: March 22nd, 2018, 9:47.

Observations: Stable patient at arrival.

First gunshot wound stopped by bulletproof vest.

Second gunshot wound, clean wound on right thigh

representing no risk for patient."

Here you go, sir.

-[woman] Where are we going? -[man] Don't ask so many questions.

[engine revving]

[dog whimpering]

PRIVATE SECURITY

[car horn honking]

I never thought you'd want to talk to me.

I don't believe in closed doors.

I didn't know there was a door.

We open any door, for the sake of the country.

For the sake of the country.

[both laugh]

Why are we here?

No one thinks we would support you.

People expect us to be on Daniela's side.

But unfortunately, her interests are not aligned with ours.

And though we have our differences,

deep down we are on the same side.

Which side is that?

The side that understands things are a certain way.

There's cables, gears and levers.

The side who understands it all changes so it all remains the same.

Look, we're coming out against Daniela.

With all our influences.

It's your opportunity to keep your votes.

Stop the bullshit with your property seize.

Distance yourself from Venezuelan government.

And use your people to attack Daniela.

My people? With what?

Please, candidate, don't insult my intelligence.

[Verónica] How's it going with Mario?

Fantastic.

Tell me.

I don't know how to talk to him.

It feels like walking a mine field. It can explode any second.

Like every teenager.

And how are you?

I don't know. The thing is...

Sometimes, I don't know what to do with all this.

With what?

The house, the bills, Kora, the cars, Mario.

The barbecues...

All of this.

That's life, Jhon. Those everyday things.

One has to learn to enjoy them.

Those little moments of happiness that come out of nowhere.

And appreciate what you have.

Look, Jhon. I love you.

I want you to do what you like.

I'm very good at something.

But if I do that, I won't make you happy.

And the only thing I really want is for you to be very happy with me.

Do you know how you can make me happy?

Go. Do what you have to do. And get home for dinner.

Spend some time with me and with Mario.

And change that long face.

Mr. Jhon! Good to see you! So, tell me, did you make up your mind?

I'll take this one.

Perfect, we just need to figure out the credit details,

and start the paperwork.

In cash.

[reporter] This is the picture some don't want us to see.

The authorities have conducted a long investigation

against Daniela León, one of the most corrupt women in Colombia.

The former prosecutor, who dismantled the Bogotá urban plan for 2030

to benefit her family business, is accused of 13 crimes

which include various counts of corruption.

It has 15,000 views, with just half an hour uploaded.

-We can't stop this? -This is like a virus.

In an hour, everyone with a smartphone will see it.

No one will believe this! I put these people in jail!

They'll believe if they want to, Daniela.

[cell phone ringing]

It's all a lie.

I was working on a video on our government plan,

we could publish it and try to smooth the blow.

Anything we put out now is overshadowed by this.

Fuck! We can't do anything?

They slander me and I can't defend myself!

[cell phone continues ringing]

NEW MESSAGE I NEED TO TALK TO YOU

Let's publish a similar video against Navas.

Another lie?

[Ernesto] Have you seen the news?

Oh, no!

[reporter 1] What do you think of the video

that links the candidate with corruption and the Bogotá 2030 case?

24/7 NEWS "I'M NOT SURPRISED"

I'm not surprised.

When you enter this game, you need a clean conscience and a clean home.

And starting with her marriage, this is not the case. Good day.

[reporters clamoring]

[reporter 2] Mr. Candidate. Mr. Candidate!

What's your opinion on the video that links

the other candidate with a corruption case?

Well, these images are truly disturbing.

I don't know where the video came from...

THE VIDEO SEEMS TO BE TRUTHFUL

...but it seems to be truthful.

In any case, I believe

it's the candidate who should show her face to the country

and explain all this. Thank you. That's it.

[reporters clamoring]

[indistinct chatter]

[sighs]

Idiots!

[Carmen] They're in this together.

Never interfere when the enemy makes a mistake.

A mistake?

With Mérida's help, Navas is heading directly to the presidency, Ernesto.

Voters don't believe everything.

What planet are you on, Ernesto?

There won't be a Navas-Mérida photo.

It's all happening behind closed doors.

The voter won't notice. This is serious.

Carmen, voters are not stupid.

I don't need grandpa's advice.

What do you mean?

I mean you don't help, Ernesto.

If you haven't noticed, we're in a shit storm,

and you tell me voters will understand?

And you think you're helpful?

Okay, there. Stop it.

Are you done?

Or are we fighting each other?

Stef, get in touch with Cardona's voters and see what they think.

Ernesto, look for your contacts, please.

Now!

Ernesto is a problem. Let's change him.

That will focus media attention. We may get out of this one.

No.

Go. Take a deep breath. Take a walk and we'll talk later.

What the hell? What is this motherfucker doing here?

[Alexis] Hey, bro! You can't come in here!

[man] What the fuck are you doing here?

-Huh? -[dog whimpering]

I hired you to watch the fucking cars!

Not to snoop around! What are you doing?

Chill, Jhonny!

Sissy! Attack him!

[man] Motherfucker! You asshole!

Motherfucker! You don't know me! You don't know who you're messing with!

Help me, prick!

Done.

Motherfucker! I'll get out and I'll kill that fucker.

I thought you'd be hungry.

They feed me here, as you can see.

How did you get in?

Did Carmen see you?

No.

I saw her. We didn't bump into each other.

I told the doorman I was a delivery man.

You? A five-star delivery!

[chuckles]

[grunts softly]

I saw the video.

So I wanted to see how you were doing.

That's precisely why I don't want rumors, Omar.

How will I explain you being here, for example?

Okay, sorry. I just wanted you to know that...

I'm by your side.

Maybe in this moment I don't need you by my side.

I'm sorry, I don't think that I'm ready for this.

I feel all messed up here. And you and I--

Messed up with what, Dani?

I believe in you, Daniela.

I want to help you, however I can.

That's to begin with.

The rest can wait, if that's the issue.

That's the problem.

You are expecting something that I...

Yei Yei, man!

-Good to see you! -Hmm.

[Apache] Hello, Yei Yei.

How are you?

Birds of a feather flock together, right?

[Apache laughs]

Good evening, sir, how are you?

Yei Yei told me what you want.

Okay.

So I imagine that it's a done deal, right?

Do you know where the missiles are?

Yes.

But you have to swear you'll erase even my birth date.

[door opens]

[door closes]

I guess that's a yes! Or not? What do you think?

Okay, let's get to work.

[man 1] Are you okay?

[man 2] Just a flat tire. It's okay.

-[man 1] Okay. Bye -Thank you.

[muffled crying]

[muffled screaming]
