-Hello. Hello, Clari, hello… -All right, sweetie. All right.

-Go and play, Clari, 'kay? -'Kay.

While I take care of this here.

-Hello. -Hello.

Hello. Hey, hey. Aren't you forgetting something?

Mm? Juancito?

He's over there by the river. You didn't hear it from me.

-Good morning. -Good morning.

-Sorry for being late. -No,

-they were happy to keep waiting for you. -I figured.

-Hello, kids. -Hi!

-What are you doing? C'mon! -Let go of it. It's mine.

-No, it's mine. -Give it!

Oh, for the love of God.

Malena, can't you give me a minute of peace?

This dummy here was the one who stole my doll.

You're the dummy! It's my doll.

-You stole it from me. -Enough, girls.

Here, we share everything. Everything.

So, give the doll back, and go get vaccinated.

Go on now!

Juan!

Hey! I got the stuff for the tattoos.

-Okay. -This bag has everything we need.

-I brought the dental floss, the needles. -Perfect.

Have you heard anything from Correa Llorens?

Because I've heard that he's closer to my boss

-than he is to us. I'm not sure if... -Yeah, it's been pretty bad

for a while now.

Mm. Well, so? You know that I respect your decision,

but I think that what belongs to the girl

belongs to her.

I was talking to the lawyer who works with my sister, that…

-What's his… That Martiniano guy? -Yeah.

Well, he told me it'll be very difficult. They took everything.

-Those people are too powerful, Carmen. -No!

They've taken it all. I don't know how…

But men can't just go leaving children all over the place anymore.

We have DNA tests now. And there's no escaping DNA.

-I don't know. -And besides,

where would they hide such a big fortune?

We're doing fine.

We don't need anything.

God fucking dammit, Araujo. Give him something to shut him up, please.

-I gave him morphine half an hour ago. -And does it look like it's working?

Can't you hear him squealing like a pig?

-Fausto. -Give him something to knock him out…

-Shh. Calm down. -…for God's sake. What?

What's your worry? Him overdosing on morphine?

He's gonna die anyways. At least make him shut up.

He can't feel pain. All that groaning you hear is purely reflexive.

-He isn't in pain. -I am, I am.

I feel it, huh? It's drilling into my brain.

Make him shut up.

Okay, there. Now, it's my turn.

Wait. Are you sure the tattoo will last this way?

Yeah, for sure. My brother gets all his tattoos like this.

-Ouch. -Just relax. Think of something else.

-Like what, for example? -Going on a vacation.

My mom says Córdoba is really pretty. Have you been to Córdoba?

-You'll see it someday. -That's not it.

-Then what is it? -I'm gonna miss you a lot.

Sweetie!

Clari, come on!

Behave yourself. Get inside, get inside. Bye.

-All ready. -Where were you?

-Nowhere, just playing with my friends. -Mm.

What's up with Juancito?

All right, sit down, let's go. Buckle up now.

Hey, buckle up, come on.

You can't smoke here. How many times do I have to tell you that?

How are you, Father?

-Good morning. Excuse me. -This way.

-Your sister's quite a handful, huh? -She's not my sister, she's my wife.

You have the same last name. Are you cousins?

Pedraza, Pedraza… There are lots of Pedrazas.

Not really.

All right.

-Get some firewood, sweetie. -'Kay.

And cover up the rest 'cause it's gonna rain.

-Why'd you run away? -I wanna see my family.

And where are you going now?

To the station. I'll try to sneak onto a bus, I dunno.

-But we're so far away from town. -I don't care. I'm going anyway.

-No, just wait! -What's going on?

What are you doing here, Male?

-Excuse me. -How are you, Father?

-Thank you for coming. -Please.

Father, thank you so much.

Looks like we'll be burying him in the middle of a storm.

No. He wanted to be cremated.

Didn't he?

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Through this holy anointing…

And in his loving mercy…

May the Lord, with the grace of the Holy Spirit,

-help free you from sin… -The bastard.

-What? -Clara.

Find my daughter.

Go on, go on.

Fausto. Fausto.

Hey, look at me. This can't be happening.

He just said, "The bastard." He's asking for his daughter.

He's just pumped full of morphine. He's delirious, Marichu.

Exactly my point.

He's asking for his daughter as he's dying.

You understand that what we do now

will stay with us for the rest of our lives?

We still have time. We have to stop this. We...

This can't stop here, Marichu. We can't stop.

That old man never cared about the girl. Why the hell did he bring her up? Huh?

What's wrong with you? What, you're having doubts now?

You're having doubts after you've messed with my head my whole life?

You torture me by saying that old man treats me like a slave,

and now, you act like this?

Look, I didn't waste my time working like a dog for him,

covering up his shit, and giving him my life so that some whore,

and the kid she wants to shove onto him can inherit it all. You understand? No.

Correa Llorens doesn't have a family, okay?

He died single and childless and left everything to me,

his right-hand man, the son he never had.

You got it?

Marichu…

I want you with me.

I want you without any doubts.

I need you to have my back. Are we clear?

Yes?

I'm with you…

-Together. -Yes.

Osvaldo?

-Can you trust these people? -Of course, Saavedra.

All right.

Go on now.

Why would you run away like this, sweetheart?

You have everything at the home. You have food, shelter, friends.

But I have a family.

I'm not like those other losers there who don't have anything.

-I wanna be with my brothers. -No.

You're gonna stay here with us tonight, and tomorrow,

I'll take you back to the home, okay? Come on, let's go.

-Let's go. -I'll make dinner in the meantime, 'kay?

Well, if everyone is in agreement…

-Then I'll proceed. -Will that make him suffer less?

He will enter a state of deep sedation…

-That will help him pass away. -How long will it take for him to pass?

There's no set time. It depends on how strong his heart is.

For some, it takes minutes, for others, hours. It varies.

What if we make a bridge with a log?

Girls!

-Come down and wash your hands! -Wanna go eat?

No, no, no. Go get the log, and we'll build the bridge, okay?

Then, we'll eat. Yeah, get it, get it, get it.

-Well… okay. -C'mon, go, go, go.

Go, go, go. C'mon, c'mon, c'mon.

Be right back, Mom. I'm going outside.

Children's home.

Hello, who is this?

Hello, Carmen. Can you... Carmen, can you hear me?

I can't hear you. Who… who's speaking?

Bring the gas cans.

What is this, Sosa?

Did you think you were gonna save yourself by fucking the old man?

-No, no… No, no, no, no! -I'm gonna...

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

Go find the child!

-No! -You fucking bitch.

No!

No!

No!

No! No!

Go outside now and douse it all.

-No, no, no. -One less whore.

-What the fuck happened? -Are you okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

What the fuck are you looking at?

-Call an ambulance. -Is she okay?

I don't know. Call an ambulance.

Hello, emergency. Yes, we need an ambulance.

I'm at the intersection of Enebros and Rosalía de Castro.

Yes, yes, we need you now.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Why'd you bring her here?

Let's take her to a decent clinic. Please.

She needs urgent medical attention.

Later on, when she's stable enough to be moved,

we'll transfer her elsewhere.

Is this her?

-Yes, doctor. -Let's go. Hurry.

Who?

Excuse me, sir, you can't go in.

We'll have to call the police, and inform them about the accident.

I'll have to ask you to stay here for that.

-Yes, yes, of course. -Mm.

-Bill me for any charges, okay? -Mm. I don't think she needs your money.

And how would you know?

-You don't know her? -No.

That's Letizia Zubiría Escobar.

The heir to one of the largest fortunes in Málaga.

-Wait, not just Málaga. In all of Spain. -Yeah? I'll tell him.

-Fausto? -Yes.

Fernando's calling.

-Excuse me. -Sure.

Fernando.

Man, you mind explaining where the fuck you are?

The Spaniards got here, like, 15 minutes ago.

I got into an accident.

What do you mean an accident? What happened?

An accident, Fernando. Don't make me say everything twice.

I'm fine anyway, don't worry. But, well, let them know

that I'm held up here, so they'll have to wait a little while.

Okay, I'll take care of it.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Don't take care of anything.

Just offer them coffee.

Tell them I'm held up here, so they'll have to wait a little while.

But how long will that take? I can't leave them here waiting.

When people want to make money, Fernando, they'll wait as long as it takes. Bye.

Listen, I was driving. He doesn't need to stay for this. He's a very busy guy.

-He's got an important meeting... -No, no, no, no, no. I'll stay here

-until the police arrive. -But, Fausto, I crashed the car,

are you really gonna take the fall on the police report too?

-No problem at all. -C'mon. I'll call you a car,

and when I'm done, I'll let you know. I'll take care of it.

-I have to go to a meeting. -Sure.

I'll be back when it's done. He's in charge now, okay?

-No problem with me. -I'll be back.

Keep me posted on this, okay?

And then regarding the animals, you can have total confidence, okay?

They do tests every year.

Patagonia is free of foot-and-mouth disease. Right, Dad?

Sorry?

No, I was just telling these gentlemen that Patagonia

has been free of FMD… for several years now, without using vaccinations.

These gentlemen already know that, Fernando. There's a reason they're here.

For the quality and traceability of Patagonian meat.

Now, if I'm not mistaken,

the only thing left to agree on is when you'll all come to spend

-a few days with us in the south. -And eat lamb.

Yes, of course.

My old man makes a lamb that's finger-licking good.

-That's nice. -And it's FMD-free.

-Thank you so much. Thank you for coming. -Anything you need…

Thanks very much. We'll be waiting for you, yeah?

My pleasure, hmm?

Well, we'll see you there sometime this winter.

-Of course. -Are your knees good enough for skiing?

They're good enough to get me to the mountaintop bar.

I'll watch you guys ski while I eat some French toast.

No. No, I don't ski anymore, but I'll have a whiskey there with you.

-Sounds good. -All the best, and thanks, huh?

Hey, man, we're gonna get tired of sending gift baskets

-to these Spaniards, aren't we? -Why'd you bring up the disease?

What were you thinking? The only thing you couldn't talk about,

and you mentioned it twice!

But… they asked about it. I made it very clear to them

that Patagonia's an FMD-free zone. What's wrong with that?

If you keep being this stupid, Patagonia will be a Fernando-free zone too.

Where are you going? We have to pack up and leave soon.

What do you need? For me to do it for you? To pack your underwear? Pack your socks?

So?

I already talked to the police, and everything's been resolved.

The girl was transferred a while ago, and is doing well.

Good, thank goodness. Where is she now? I wanna see her.

I'll find out for you.

Hey, man.

Do you know where they transferred that girl from the accident?

Patients are usually transferred to Marañón.

But everyone knows that she lives in a hotel in Madrid.

-She has a suite all to herself. -Which hotel?

-Good evening. -Good evening.

I'm looking for Miss Letizia Zubiría Escobar.

There's no one here by that name.

Look, I know that lady lives in this hotel.

Please put me through to her.

I'm very sorry, but there's no guest here by that name.

-Have a good night. -Have a good night.

-Excuse me. Letizia Zubiría Escobar? -Mm-hmm.

My name is Fausto Saavedra,

I was in the car that was involved in your accident today.

Ah! The one who gave me this necklace.

That's right.

Actually, my chauffeur was driving,

but since I rented the car, I wanted to know how you were doing.

And to let you know I'm at your service if you need anything.

Mm. Thank you.

I only got whiplash, so, I just have a bit of a sore neck and a headache.

-Hmm. -Hmm.

I shouldn't say I'm happy about that,

but I'm relieved that it's nothing serious.

-May I, please? -Of course.

Pardon the intrusion, but… I noticed you don't have a Spanish accent.

It's because my mother was Argentine,

so, I inherited her accent. And her curse words too.

I brought you truffles. I hope you like them.

Thank you.

How did you find me?

Well, I did my research.

Mm.

-Sir? -Yes.

Will you be dining?

-No, he was just leaving. Thanks. -Thank you very much.

Well, I'll give you my card. Feel free to call me if you need anything.

And I hope you enjoy the truffles.

-Good night. -Good night.

Excuse me?

Yes.

Right now, I'm too tired.

I just wanna finish eating and go to sleep.

But I'm free Saturday.

You wanna explain to me why the fuck you changed your plans?

We were supposed to go to Los Cóndores tomorrow.

Aren't you always asking for more freedom, Fernando?

So, here's your wings. Go take care of everything till I join you.

No, but I won't leave you alone here, Dad.

Take the wings I gave you, Fernando, and fly off.

-C'mon, get outta here. -Does Mom know?

Don't worry about your mother. Go on, take care of everything.

All I ask is that you don't fuck up. Can you do that?

-Okay. -Bye.

Bye.

-I bet she stood you up. -No, no, no.

-We can come back later. -No, we agreed on six o'clock.

She knows she's a woman worth waiting for.

Look, there she is.

-Hello, Letizia. -How are you?

-How are you doing? -Good.

Good?

Don't tell me that's the driver who tried to kill me.

Don't say that. Poor David's already mortified enough, isn't he?

A thousand apologies, Miss.

We can use first names now, right?

No, no, let's keep things as they are. I don't like things too casual.

Mm. Do you always treat everyone like this?

No, first names are for friends or lovers. And right now, we're neither of those.

That's true. Shall we?

-Try not to bump into anyone, David. -You used David's first name.

-Is he your friend or boyfriend? -It slipped my tongue.

You did your research on me. You know I like truffles, flamenco.

You're wearing my favorite cologne.

What else do you know about me?

Well, that you and your last boyfriend split up about a year ago, for example.

Mm. That's right.

You, on the other hand, have been married for 25 years.

I did some research on you too.

We're separated now.

Well, I have never heard a man say that before.

Are we drinking or what?

-Cheers. -Cheers.

…hey, you look beautiful.

Thanks, you look quite handsome yourself.

I need to go back.

I have a couple things to take care of in Argentina.

I don't know why you're saying bye already.

The day isn't over yet, Fausto.

Hold on, we're using first names now?

Yes, and you're staying the night.

Well, now it's your turn. What should we toast to?

I would like to toast to David.

To David? Can I ask why?

If he hadn't been so reckless, we wouldn't be here together.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

Perfect, thank you.

Thank you.

Sorry.

You're amazing.

You're making it so hard to leave.

You have to go, but to your wife, and we both know that.

That's over now.

I'm a free man.

I can fall in love and marry again whenever I want.

I didn't know that.

THREE MONTHS LATER

Officer Romero, we need you at the Saavedra farm.

Copy that. What happened?

Looks like trouble with the wife.

People heard yelling and gunshots.

All right, on my way. I'm close by.

WELCOME TO VILLA iOS CÓNDORES ARGENTINIAN PATAGONIA

Open up, Marichu!

I'm gonna break the door with an axe. Open up!

The only way I'm leaving this room is if I'm dead,

-you son of a bitch! -No!

Look what I'm doing to your shirt!

You're ripping up that... Don't rip that shirt, Marichu!

-Wow, watch this… -Don't rip that shirt!

-…what happened to the shirt? -Mari...

Dad, stop, you're making it worse. Let me handle it.

What are you gonna handle? You can't even handle a wheelbarrow, Fernando.

-Just go, let me handle it, please. -Goddamn son of a bitch.

Mom, can you hear me?

Don't do that, you're gonna hurt yourself.

You're hurting yourself, 'kay?

Let me in, and we'll talk it out.

Remember, deep breaths.

She's breaking everything!

She's breaking everything in my room! And no one could stop her?!

-Who let her in? -Mom, let me in and we'll talk,

-I'm begging you. -I got 20 people working here, for what?

-Useless idiots! -Don't yell, you'll make it worse.

Open the door...

Goddamn bitch.

You can come on in now, huh?

You want me to leave? Come here. Come on, come here. Try to make me leave.

I'll go out this way, huh?

I'll take you with me, you fucking traitor.

I bought you the house you wanted.

I gave you everything you asked for.

You're loaded now, Marichu. What else do you want?

What house did you buy me?

You're gonna throw it all away just for some fucking whore.

-Juancito, thank God you came. -Where are they?

-Upstairs. -Upstairs?

-Upstairs, at the back. -Okay.

How long do you think she'll keep fucking you?

How can you even fuck? You can't get it up.

Your tiny, impotent dick.

I'll have you committed, you crazy bitch.

Look, the police are here. You'll see.

I was told there were shots fired.

Oh, yeah. She found my dad's gun, already shot it a few times.

Any friends we can call to help calm her down?

How can this crazy bitch have any friends, she can't even stand herself.

Let them come, let them come. Let the police come.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.

Well, I'll call an ambulance in case she needs to be sedated.

She better be sedated.

Shh!

1-21, this is Romero at the Saavedra residence.

I need an ambulance. Urgently.

Why are you yelling at her? Huh? Why the fuck are you yelling?

Rosa's Fashion Corner

Rosa?

-Rosa! -What's going on?

An ambulance just passed by.

Oh, what could have happened? First the police, now this.

Sandra told everyone that it seems like Marichu lost it.

We saw it coming. Marichu wasn't gonna leave quietly.

If she's like this now,

I can't imagine what she'll be like when that Spanish girl shows up.

Oh, he's bringing her here.

-Yeah. -Mm.

She's coming today.

She's flying in on Saavedra's private plane.

Sandrita was the one who told me since her boyfriend works at the airport.

I don't even wanna say anything. No.

You know I respect women too much for that.

I always told you that sooner or later, Saavedra was gonna leave Marichu.

But… I thought he was gonna leave her to be with you.

You think too much, Walter. You have to learn to talk a little less.

What are you doing with those fabrics? Come on. Take 'em to the back.

-Be right back. -Go, go, just go.

Want some tea?

Ungrateful.

That's what you are.

After everything, everything I did for you.

-Ah! -Relax, Julia,

no one's gonna hurt you.

Please stay calm. We're here to help you.

Saavedra's kiss-asses, slaves, and puppets are all on that piece of shit's side.

But they used to kiss my ass too.

"Blah, blah…"Marichu… Blah, blah, …you're gorgeous, so divine."

All my friends, all nice. Now that he's dumped me, I can't even...

Stay calm, ma'am.

-Don't hurt her. -Let go of me! Don't you dare... No! No!

Ma'am, it's okay. Calm down, calm down.

-You'll be fine. You'll be fine. -And you! Oh, you, Fernando!

Traitor, slave!

-A traitor like your father! -It's for your own good, Mom.

-Your own good. It's for your... -It hurts.

Calm down, calm down, ma'am.

And you…

I'm never talking to you again. You don't have a mother, okay?

Your mother is dead.

Your father killed her while you did nothing.

Mom… I will… I will never let you be alone.

No, you… you don't do this to the woman who taught you everything.

You…

You don't do this to the woman who knows how your shit smells.

You're gonna regret this.

That's enough, Marichu. That's enough.

You're bringing nothing but misfortune to this town, Fausto.

-Take her away. -I warned you.

Welcome, sweetheart.

-It's so wonderful that you're here. -Hello, sweetheart.

I can't believe I'm here.

-You've talked about it a lot. -You'll never want to leave.

If you tell me that, I'll get on the plane and head back.

It's a joke.

You won't leave because you won't be able to.

This place will grow on you. You'll see.

-Hello, David. What's up? -Good afternoon, Miss.

It's beautiful, Fausto.

Now you see?

Hey, my love. You seem moved.

I was really looking forward to seeing this place.

Villa Los Cóndores, you've talked about it with such love.

But I was anxious to see the place

-that you like more than me. -Are you crazy?

Mm.

Have you told your son about our wedding?

Yes.

He didn't take it very well.

He's very attached to his mother, and he's worried about how she'll react.

Anyway, don't worry. He'll come around.

Don't worry, honey.

If we need to postpone it, we'll postpone it.

No, that's crazy.

-I'm so desperate to marry you. -Did you tell him yet?

No, I wanted us to tell him together.

-David. -Yes?

Letizia and I have something to tell you.

You know the small house I have just past the farm,

-the one with the little cellar? -Yes, yes, of course.

Well, it's yours, David.

-What do you mean? -It's yours.

I still have to sign the deed in a couple days, but it's yours.

For real?

Yes, sir.

Thanks to you and your shit driving, I met the love of my life.

-My love. -So, this is my way of thanking you.

I'm very glad that you don't have to spend another 30 years

pinching pennies to buy a ranch.

This will change your life, my friend.

I don't know what to say, Fausto.

Well, say what anyone would say in this situation, right?

-"Thank you." -Yes, of course. Thank you.

Truly. With all my heart.

Thank Letizia too, because it was her idea.

Thank you, Letizia.

You're gonna drive the car through here.

And I'm gonna cross in front of you there.

SIX MONTHS EARLIER

No, no, no, no, no. I don't see it.

It's impossible for this to work.

There are a thousand other ways to fake a meet cute.

I know him well. He's a jerk. He'll fall for you the moment he sees you.

I don't want a simple meet cute. I want him to fall madly in love with me.

And for him to fall in love, we'll need something out of a fairy tale.

A story. We met when his car crashed into mine.

I'm not gonna crash into you, come on. I'll kill myself if something goes wrong.

Nothing is gonna go wrong. We'll rent a super safe car.

If we need to, we'll install triple airbags.

And we'll rehearse this a thousand times with the stunt woman. It'll be fine.

I don't wanna go after him. I want him to come to me.

Make him believe he has to chase me in order to win me.

Arriving at the intersection…

…in ten, nine, eight, seven…

…six, five…

David, this is Luis. This is Jordi. They're gonna help us.

You're gonna call the ambulance.

Hello, emergency. Yes, I need an ambulance.

And from there,

they'll take me to the medical clinic.

You, Luis, will be in charge of telling him my name.

That's Letizia Zubiría Escobar,

the heir to one of the largest fortunes in all of Spain.

Okay, it's done.

Thank you.

You and I will bring Letizia to life.

LATEST NEWS STORY

Let's fill up her socials with photos, memories, trips,

-family, everything. Okay? -Okay.

If everything goes well, he'll want to see me.

And I'm gonna bribe you in front of Fausto so that you tell us where to find her.

Which hotel?

This is the best room we have in the entire hotel.

It's perfect, Sofi.

I was only able to get it for five days. I hope that that's enough.

-It's more than enough. -Great.

Wait, I'll give you the money.

-Here you go. -Thanks so much, Clara.

Mm-hmm.

-"Letizia." -Oh. That's right.

-Thank you. -And you.

You were right.

It's beautiful.

This is it.

Welcome to Villa Los Cóndores.

Mm.

I've been planning this moment for 20 years.

I've thought of every option, every possibility.

I've played out every scenario in my head.

Fausto Saavedra, the man who destroyed my life,

will be the one who leads me by the hand back to that lion's den.

I'll get my revenge on him…

And on everyone who planned and covered up my mother's death,

and took my life away from me.

What goes around comes around.

I will destroy everything they love.

We'll be right back…

Look at me…

-Talk about me, hate me… -Let's go.

…and be afraid of me.

Because I am the daughter of fire who they tried and failed to kill.

I am the bastard child who's here to destroy them.

Because to steal my inheritance from me,

they took the only valuable thing in my life…

love.
