Mr. Ambassador?

Spanish police.

- The reason for your detention is...
- How did you get here?

Bribery, abuse of power, use of relationships,

Stealing property...
- You can't arrest me.

I have diplomatic immunity. - Not anymore.

Please stay away from the computer.

Give me your phone.

What are you doing there?

What's wrong?

Hope you do your job well.

Louis!

what happened? Where are you taking him?

- I'm sorry, ma'am.
- What do you regret?

But he did nothing. - We have an order.

- Leave them, Claudia.
- Louis, no.

Go home and talk to Montero and ask him to hire a lawyer.

- No, Louis...
- Anyway,

No matter what, don't talk to anyone.

- Please go away.
- Let him go.

Please go away.

Otherwise I will have to detain you too.

Go away.

Impact of new corruption scandal

Spain. Ambassador of Spain to Thailand,

Luis Salinas

Arrested on charges of bribery, abuse of power, trafficking in relationships, etc.

and money laundering and theft of government property.

The ambassador, who had served for about a year, was deported to Spain and is currently

His colleagues and family members testified before Supreme Court Judge Corrales.

Is this all your testimony?

- My husband is a dignified man.
-Or so you think.

Do you know what he kept?

Do you have $300,000 in cash in your office?

They found a stash in his home containing twice that amount.

I invite you,

When Louis finds out what happened at the embassy, all he wants is

It is to eliminate corruption.

You arrived a week after he did, didn't you?

I work as a reporter in Washington,

I took a month off to help my husband settle.

I got there that day...

No, I don’t remember, but it was Sunday.

I can't wait to get there.

I've heard a lot of good reviews about Bangkok.

a year ago

Welcome to Bangkok, the city of angels.

But one of them is missing. you. - Did you come alone?

Work took its toll on me.

They only left me alone when I was sleeping.

Our new nest.

what do you think? - Can't it be bigger?

I like.

- Welcome, ma'am.
- very nice.

Elena Ferran, Embassy Counselor.

Julio Carretero, my assistant.

- very nice.
- mutual.

I said it loud, don't laugh. - More or less.

- thanks, thanks.
- Thank you (English).

let's go.

I love.

Considering the house you chose, it's pretty good.

Have you organized a reception?

We will have a formal dinner tomorrow.

But he will be at the embassy.

In traditional Spanish style, drinks and snacks are a must.

Come on, I want to show you something. - etc.

- let us go.
- Now.

let's go.

This was the idea of the former ambassador.

I purposely didn’t post a photo so as not to spoil the surprise.

Shall we give it a try?

- Now?
- why not?

No no no.

I have to answer.

I'm so sorry.

Yes, yes, I'm listening.

Yes, it's me.

Thank you (English).

- Do they all live in the house?
- Only butler and cook.

During the working period, four ambassadors have been replaced. - Do any of them speak Spanish?

The butler explained.

You can give him orders and he will communicate them to others.

Do you want someone to cook you something to eat?

- No, no, thank you.
- Anyway, Julio,

Go to the kitchen and say that the Ambassador's wife and I are here now.

Dear, I must return to the embassy immediately.

- everything is fine? - More or less.

Elena will stay here with you and show you around the house, okay?

- Is the embassy far from here?
- No, what are you talking about?

But Bangkok often suffers from traffic jams.

Don't even think about driving yourself.

They have absolutely no idea how to drive here.

This is very dangerous.

I know the previous ambassador died in a car accident.

Such a tragedy, poor man.

There are only four months left before his new appointment.

I don't understand, you don't even look at your passport before boarding a plane in Spain?

I already go to the airport more than a taxi driver.

I'm going to do a background check and then get your passport, okay?

Did the ambassador's wife arrive on the same flight?

- Yes Yes. All hope goes to you, Matt.
- So what to do!

where are they? In my office?

Sorry, it's impossible to reach the city on time.

It's okay, we totally understand everything, it's normal.

Your deputy just gave me an update.

My name is Paco Cardenas. This is Ambassador Don Luis Salinas.

- Very good, Mr. Ambassador.
- mutual. very nice.

Look, you and I should probably cross paths.

At some party in college, after all we are all graduates.

As a result, I graduated two years later.

You graduated in 1982, right?

This year is the World Cup in Spain. --It seems like a century has passed.

- Yes.
- Minister it is possible

Thailand's Transport Ministry will make a decision on Friday.

Construction of another highway has begun; what is important now is the signing of rolling stock contracts.

Mr. Cardenas struck a deal with the former ambassador…

Okay, okay, that certainly doesn't force you to do anything.

A new era has arrived. That's what they're saying in the news now.

By the way, congratulations on your great success

in the last election. - Don't get me wrong.

I have nothing to do with politics, I am a career diplomat.

Ah, I see. But congratulations anyway.

I was told this was your first embassy.

Nothing again. This is my first time as an ambassador, that’s true.

Wow, I doubt this is true.

Listen, is your wife here?

Because I ordered something for her arrival.

Ham, it's expensive to get it through customs.

Well, of course, the Thais have tried it...

Excuse me while I go to see if the head of the trade mission has returned to the ministry.

It would be nice if she came to this meeting too.

Look, Mr. Cardenas, we're on your side, but there are three Spanish companies vying for this contract.

I shouldn't be biased against any of them.

Yes, of course, you should back the best offer.

I just want to save money. My offer is the best.

Then two other companies would accuse me of aiding and abetting. They are right.

Mr. Ambassador, you have just arrived, so you may not know how to solve these problems here.

High-speed trains depend on government companies.

Here, state-owned enterprises cannot function without influence.

I don't know if I explained it clearly.

I know that corruption is serious in Thailand, but our embassy has nothing to do with it.

And what do we get?

Would you give the contract to a Japanese company or a Chinese company?

You are here to defend our interests.

This is not profitable for Spain.

We invite you here and pay your salary with our taxes, right?

Sorry, I have a question. Have you received a call from Madrid yet?

The problem is not within your capabilities.

listen

Cadenas, I know you spent a lot of time and money on this project, but don't worry if it's really the best,

Then I have no doubt...
- You, from the left direction,

You don't like entrepreneurs. You don't trust us.

I repeat, I am neither a leftist nor a rightist.

And even so, it won't affect work at all.

Yes Yes. Also, I have nothing to do with politics.

I'm just running a business.

We all understand that it would be better if the contract was with a Spanish company, right?

I'll try my best to keep it that way.

Yes. But you can always put in a little more effort.

If necessary.

Everyone can push themselves when necessary.

The meeting is over.

The ambassador remains "friendly". What did he tell him this time?

login.

Mr. Ambassador.

Within 5 minutes of meeting me he tried to bribe me.

As you know, sir, this is not his first attempt.

But try it here at the embassy

In my opinion, this is the pinnacle of arrogance. regret.

If we file a complaint, they will automatically lose their license.

We will not file a complaint.

It doesn't seem so obvious that he's not an idiot.

These people think they can buy everything

But we are not for sale, we are not politicians.

What time is the reception tonight?

Don't tell me you changed your mind about going to the welcome reception.

No, I'm just warning you that I'll be busy with work issues.

You don't have to go if you want.

I don't know, is it always this hot here?

No, only summer. It's usually 1-2 degrees cooler in winter.

But you won’t stay for the winter. - Yes.

- Do you already have a return ticket?
- Yes, 25 years old, Louis.

By the way, I got a full five weeks off.

Thomas is generous. - What kind of Thomas?

Thomas Garrido, my new editor.

he was sent to washington

Replaced me while I was here. - Clear.

Well, he'll definitely get half your salary to replace him.

Thomas would be happy if you stayed here and extended his replacement contract, wouldn't he?

You will love Thailand.

If you want to stay and work here...

- Louis, we've discussed this.
- Okay, we can talk about that some more.

Another day, as you wish.

This is not a literal reception, but an informal one.

Just dare to leave me alone tonight.

I didn't expect her to be so beautiful, I don't know why.

Maybe it's because you don't have much imagination, admit it.

Have you already talked to her?

Did you know she flew directly from Washington?

Wow, he's walking here alone! - Are you going to give a report?

Did the reporter take no breaks at all? - I'm different from you

Not so lucky with wages. I get paid for materials.

- Today's protagonist is the ambassador's wife?
- Yes.

Then why don't you ask her yourself?

Claudia, how are you?

I am Fatima, Eduardo's wife, the second person in the embassy today who stole your husband.

I am also here alone and decided to come up and introduce myself.

Well, welcome. - I don't want to drink anymore.

The flight was not smooth and I still felt a little seasick.

- When will your daughter arrive?
- tomorrow.

She and her fiancé.

She needed to resolve paperwork issues and obtain a work permit.

That's right, Eduardo told me.

It seems that she was hired by a French company, right?

- French.
- She is a lawyer.

- Do you have children?
- Yes, little daughter,

But we decided not to take her to the party. - The right solution.

We did it a few times, but she hated it.

Now that she was older, she hated them even more.

How can you love them? Do you see how these people are dressed?

They looked bored...I saw the same faces night after night for six months.

Have you been told what the difference is between diplomats and ordinary people?

- No. which one?
- No, but they don't know.

I've heard a lot of jokes about diplomats. This is cruel.

After the death of the previous ambassador, did your husband take over all affairs of the embassy?

Yes, if he were allowed, he would take over the affairs of the entire country.

He lives to work.

Well, what do I tell you?

Eduardo lost his parents at a young age and had to become the head of the family.

Therefore, everyone present is like family to him.

He just wants the best for everyone.

- how long have you been here?
- It's been 3 years.

God, time flies so fast! I don't even know if that's good or bad.

In fact, I'm going to be here for a little over a month.

Then I have to leave and go to work. - Yes, I know that too.

There is no other way to live but to learn from the examples of others.

Look, she's coming towards us. It's Olga, the consul's wife.

She will be insufferable to you at first, but later you will become friends.

Olga, have you been introduced to the ambassador's wife?

No, I will remember that. Olga. Very nice.

- Claudia. mutual.
- Congratulations to your husband.

Finally, choose a worthy wine for such a reception.

It used to feel like pouring rat poison into a bottle, labeling it French and done.

Fatima, can you take me to the women's room? - Yes.

It's just that when I see myself in the mirror alone, I feel uneasy.

Don't worry.

For you. (English)

for me? OK, thanks. (English)

Claudia, I want to introduce you.

Eduardo Marañón, Ministerial Advisor

And the second person from the embassy. Patricia Segura

(Patricia Segura), Sales Office Director.

Who is that person over there?

Hey, Sarah. Sarah Domingo, Secretary...

- You are a bastard.
- Nice to meet you.

Is that why you asked me to come? For God's sake!

You've only been here alone for a week.

- what are you saying?
- You've cheated on me and you've done it again!

- where are you going?
- Go somewhere you wouldn't go.

And don't follow me!

Claudia, it's been half an hour since I called you.

Please pick up the phone.

Claudia, I don't understand what's going on.

But I thought I deserved an explanation. Please give me a call.

Yes, Claudia. The city is not safe.

You shouldn't go out alone at night. Call me, okay?

Did you see her leave?

taxi.

Yes, we called the company and they told us they sent her to the red light district.

(English)

In the red light district. Call security and ask them to find her.

Yes, sir. (English)

Let me go!

Are you Spanish?

Next time you come to the red light district,

Wear something a little more modest. - There won't be a next time. Thanks.

What did you tell them?

The property cannot belong to them because it belongs to me.

Wow. I never thought such a sentence would make me happy.

Do you live here? - No.

- But do you speak Thai? - Yes.

Do you want me to take you somewhere? I have a car.

Thanks.

beautiful beach.

I just arrived yesterday and haven’t set foot anywhere yet.

That makes sense, doesn't it?

Of all the beaches here, this one is my favorite.

Are you crazy? Do you know how much trouble you could get into for this?

From the age of 35 to death.

This seems crazy to you, right?

have no idea. It seems you don't care.

You have to do the wrong thing from time to time.

Have you ever wanted to be a different person?

Someone without prejudice. People who just do what they want to do.

is that you?

Today, yes.

And you?

Today, yes.

Now we are officially two criminals.

tomorrow?

Can I give you some advice?

If there's something in your life that you don't like, fix it.

That's what my dad always said.

Your father is an idealist.

Life is not that simple. - I didn't say it was easy.

Nothing is that hard, it just is.

It's my turn. suggestion.

Never think more about others than yourself when making decisions.

Do you know what I would do right now if I was only thinking about myself?

Ask me how old I am.

- No.
- Yes.

I don't care, especially since you won't tell the truth.

you are wrong.

I won't lie. I'm old enough to be your mother.

But you are not her.

And you don’t regard me as your son.

I thought today was the day we forgot to do the right thing.

Good morning.

where are you from?

How are you?

We've been looking for you all night.

Well, you found me.

Claudia, we called all the hospitals, police stations...

We didn't know where else to call.

What are you doing?

I am leaving.

I will pick up my daughter from the airport

We're leaving here today.

Claudia, I have no idea.

- Do not touch me.
- and then explain what happened.

Claudia, why are you leaving?

Why did you run away from the party last night?

How long are you going to fool me?

You made me come all the way here.

for what? Come to humiliate me?

What's this?

These photos are fake.

go to hell!

Claudia, I swear to you, it wasn't me, it was my face, but it wasn't me, I swear to you.

Who gave it to you? - who cares?

waiter.

Someone doctored these photos

They replaced my face, but not my body.

Claudia, you know me. Please look carefully.

Claudia, look, do I have a scar like this?

Take a look.

Who did it?

Someone wants to hurt us.

- Who is that?
- have no idea.

- Is she okay?
- No, I'm not good, I'm not good either.

I'd like to see you all at the embassy in an hour.

I'm listening, Eduardo.

Yes.

I'm going to Hong Kong soon.

Now?

Yes, I could put it off, but what happened? everything is fine?

Alright alright. I'm going.

Good morning, crazy cute.

What are you doing in my office?

I can't find my phone charger.

Don't waste your time, Romero, all my drawers are locked.

I hid the key in the safe when you came.

The safe in your room or the safe hanging behind the painting?

Any questions about the new ambassador? - No. The interview is over.

Yes, a foreigner, that's understandable, but where did he give it to you?

If he is at the embassy, that means he is one of the invitees.

Yes, that makes sense.

There are surveillance cameras hanging on the front of the building.

Maybe they recorded something unusual.

I checked the recording. Only guests arrive,

They set out a few hours later. - I'm sure this was one of the invitees.

Do you have a complete list? - Yes, embassy staff,

Some family members and waiters.

They were all hired through agencies.

I can check for fingerprints, but fingerprints are enough:

Waiter, your wife, yours. - certainly,

If we knew everything beforehand, we would wear gloves.

Thanks. - This will make my task easier.

- Mr. Ambassador, do you want to see me?
- Yes, Sarah, sit down.

- Something happened? - Yes.

Last night at a party someone sent my wife

Envelope with photo attached. These.

I'm sorry, but you have to understand that I can't just let this go.

-Where did this come from?
- have no idea.

But someone was trying really hard to penetrate my face

Not the face of the person you’re with.

I don't know anyone who can do this.

These photos were taken from the building opposite.

Do you know who he might be? -Who took our photo?

No. No, I swear to you, I don't know.

Who is with you in the photo?

This is none of your business, this is my private life.

I have nothing to do with these photos. You have to believe me.

Hello!

- Mom, I'm already here.
- I am coming.

Esther?

Esther, where are you?

Esther.

We hadn’t seen each other in three months and no one greeted me at the airport with sad eyes.

Let me see you.

You are such a beauty.

Oh My God.

I was going to pick you up at the airport. - It doesn't matter.

Yes, I should meet you.

Dad told me you're not feeling well.

Well, he was busy and just wanted a change of mood.

It's great to have you here.

To be more precise, we're already there.

- let's see.
- No, don't try.

stand right here.

Quiet.

Carlos, meet my mom.

Carlos, Claudia. Claudia, Carlos.

Didn't you even say hello?

- very nice.
- Hello.

Oh my god, what a formality.

Please kiss, you are already a family.

Please mom.

OK

- Did they tell you what it was called?
- "Machi" Hotel.

Isn't it a bit far to spend the night there?

Thank you, Matt. I will inform the Ambassador.

The police took the ambassador's wife's passport.

He was found in a hotel room in Hua Hin.

It's almost two hours from here. - Did she report it missing?

The police didn't tell me anything, but I could find out more.

Go check it out.

Ask them to tell you who the number is registered to.

She probably took it off herself and just forgot about the passport.

Or maybe it was stolen and a thief took the number.

Call to clear your concerns. I'll talk to the ambassador.

I have never been so humiliated in my life, especially in front of everyone.

You make it clear to him that you have nothing to do with this.

He's been here less than a week and he's already starting to annoy me.

He thought he was a big shot because his friends appointed him ambassador,

But he forgot that he was at the bottom of the world.

Well, you know, being an ambassador here isn't the worst thing.

I can't stand this upstart trying to restore order everywhere.

And those of us who have been working here for God knows how long stand idly by?

Hey, relax, okay?

It's easy for you to say.

Now in the office, they look at me like I'm the last piece of trash.

And what should I do now?

What if these photos end up on the internet?

You would then report it to the police and accuse the ambassador of allowing the photo to be circulated.

Who do you think took these photos?

Why were they sent to the ambassador's wife?

I think this has nothing to do with you, and it has nothing to do with me.

Won't you do anything to find out who's behind this?

If he gets more nervous than we do, he'll screw up.

Will you stay here with me? Or do you have any plans?

Someone is waiting for me. Today I am a chef.

How tempting is all this, right?

Let's order Pad Thai. Here he is unrivaled.

whatever you want.

How long have you been here, Carlos?

A month ago, he was interning here,

made some friends

So he decided to come and see them earlier now.

Oh, friends. How amazing. So where?

They run a hotel in South Beach.

Yes, this is where WhatsApp cannot be connected.

- Wi-Fi is not available everywhere. - It's okay, but now I know

If I suddenly want to leave you, where should I go?

Sorry for the delay.

My dear, you are beautiful. - Thank you, Dad.

- You must be Carlos, right?
- Very good, sir.

Esther told me a lot about you. Now, we finally meet.

Dear, how are you?

how are you dear? - great.

I'm starving.

I'll call the waiter, otherwise I'll have to wait until it gets dark.

Here they have a completely different rhythm.

I'm going to the toilet for a while. If you can.

Well, who would have thought that all three of them would be in Bangkok.

- Four.
- Four.

How did it go? everything is fine? How is the situation at the embassy?

Very good to me.

The benefits of being a boss.

you know.

You know, know who I am.

- of course not.
- I do not believe you.

How can you be such an idiot?

If I knew who you were, I wouldn't come near you.

So is this a common thing for you? Does Esther know?

I swear this is the first time.

What's more, I don't believe it either.

What I know about you is that you are a liar.

——But you didn’t tell me the truth either. - I didn't tell you anything.

For the last time, you looked at me like this next to my daughter.

- How do you look?
- Last time.

What happened yesterday was a mistake and will never happen again.

- Claudia.
- No, no Claudia. listen to me.

Yesterday I didn't know you were my daughter's fiancé

now I understand

I spent last night with a completely different person.

You can make a mistake once, but not twice.

I wanted to help him but it was impossible.

I'm not here to hire right away.

One of your relatives. - Carlos is not your relative.

He is a great expert. Have you seen his diploma?

He is one of the best graduates. "Then it won't be difficult for him to find a job."

But that's not what he wants. I hope you can lend a helping hand.

- Or does he hope?
- I told him you could help.

I thought I taught you not to make promises to other people.

It's best not to talk about commitment.

Why are you telling me this now?

One interview, I only ask for one interview.

It's over, I made the call.

They will come up now.

So, what should we order?

As a result, the embassy dinner was cancelled?

If we do not contribute to the contract in any way...

Dinner remains in effect, but ambassador remains neutral

And no entrepreneur will be singled out.

It's the same. This is how I imagined him. I was told,

He spent two years with the Left Forces Alliance. - Nothing in common.

He was as anti-communist as the PPP ministers.

For 20 years, they have wanted to change the world.

- You spent a lot of money.
- Okay, so this is an accessory.

I like it but it's a bit big for me.

what are we going to do? - Let's exchange.

Your wrists are like baby's wrists. - Just noticed?

Leave me alone with him, let's go.

- Can you give me a car?
- No.

You prefer sports cars.

Okay, take the key from the table. - Okay, I'm leaving.

Keep up the good work, chef.

gentlemen. - Roberto, dear.

My dear friend, I love you so much.

Are you OK? - Paco.

What are you cooking?

Looks good.

Your brother is so elegant, I didn’t even recognize him today.

How fragrant.

You told me you would negotiate with the ambassador.

So what do we do with this woodpecker?

Break his mouth to get him to agree? - Yes.

First, it will be decided

most. Calmness and patience are key.

Yeah, but I don't have time, I've been tinkering with this damn train for so many months.

Now this bastard says he won't support me.

I don't believe that you spent the entire evening eating at the embassy, with the Minister of Transport there, and you didn't say anything to him.

Are you trying to fool me with a joke?

So I'll tell you one.

I'm broke, I'm taking Lucia to Spain and nominating her for the elections.

I've called Genoa, Firassa.

Now it's your turn to call from the other side.

That's why you do this photo trick.

- What picture?
- Why did you send them?

- What are you doing?
- Why did you do that, Paco?

Oops!

He cheated on me, and I cheated on him.

I opened his wounds so we wouldn't have to cry,

We've been doing this with you. - You spy on me, Paco.

You took pictures of me on purpose. Are you trying to blackmail me?

- You are crazy.
- And then you're out.

Forget high-speed trains.

- What?
- I can't believe you.

I won't let you mess it up twice.

And I messed up?

I invested a lot of money in this stupid train.

Are you going to tell me I'm out? - Don't raise your voice in my house.

You won't get rid of me. Count me in.

You don't know what I'm related to.
- Yes, I introduced you to most of them.

What happened?

I want you to return all gifts to Cardenas immediately.

Why?

The table was set and I had everything ready.

No, this does not need to be credited to the embassy account.

Sorry, this is a family dinner. I pay here, okay? (English)

You must forgive me, but I must return to the embassy.

again?

Carlos, would you mind coming with me?

- certainly.
- You arrange your evening time in an orderly manner,

A reception will be held at the Embassy. - tonight?

If she doesn't want to, don't let her go.

I really hope you can come.

What does this celebration commemorate?

Today there will be a dinner with representatives of the Spanish companies selected for the high-speed train contract.

Impressive event.

- excellent.
- You can't miss this.

goodbye.

What is your academic qualification?

Management and business administration.

- Why did you choose this particular major?
- I have always been interested in economics.

This is the engine of the world. - What do you think about economics knowledge

Is it useful for your work at the embassy?

- Is this a job interview?
- No.

You must be selected by the embassy committee like other candidates.

This is a conversation to have with your possible future father-in-law.

Understanding economics is very useful. Money is always relevant.

I also completed postgraduate training at the School of International Relations,

I have been working in a bank for the past six months. -Have you ever done anything illegal?

Yes.

Okay, you're honest.

I hope this isn't something too serious.

Imagine you are a judge. How much are you willing to sell it for?

- No, I'm not selling.
- Come on, everyone has a price.

So what is yours? How much are you willing to sell it for?

This question makes no sense.

If they try to bribe me, I will leave the court.

Are you sure what you are doing?

Mother.

You are still so young. Esther, for God's sake. - So, what?

have no idea. You two, leave your hometown and start a new life...

Where is my home?

Tell me where, because I still don't understand.

The house we live in together, or rather the house

You go off in every direction from there. - Okay, Esther.

We worked hard to adapt and it was the best thing that ever happened.

I know, but that's why I make the choices I do.

I don't want to conform.

I don't want him to be in Washington and me in Thailand.

Should I continue?

No no no. Wait a moment.

You would compare a marriage of 25 years or more to an ongoing relationship…

How many? - six months.

- Wow, a whole six months!
- Yes, we have been living together for six months.

Do you think after six months you had a good understanding of him as a person?

I know Carlos very well.

certainly?

Let's get started

Have I introduced you to many people?

not one.

Because none of them matter to me.

Mr. Ambassador, can we talk?

- Yes, of course, in my office.
- No, it's better outside the embassy.

It only takes 2 minutes.

You can't destroy me.

You're not going to destroy me like Superman saves the world.

I am always ready to assist you, but within the limits of the law.

Laws can always be changed if necessary.

Just like the first time. - I never take bribes.

Taxpayers are not being robbed here.

Here, if I cry, then I tune out. That's life, isn't it?

Or do you think I'm the only one?

Here, in this embassy, the previous ambassador did this, the ambassador before him, and the ambassador before him, and so on.

Have you ever looked at the tax curve?

So it's not crooked at all, but it's pushing upwards at an amazing speed.

Everyone is happy. - This charge is very serious.

You think you're smart, but everything is tied up here.

There are many rats and one big rat.

Everyone takes a bite because it’s good for everyone.

Hey, they didn't tell you.

Haven't you looked at these documents with superhuman eyes?

As always, Mr. Ambassador, it's a pleasure talking to you.

Elena, I'd like to see the financial statements for the past two years,

Property inventory, invoices, copies of our signed contracts,

Report on rent, personnel. all!

Patricia. - Yes.

I need a copy from 2010

List and reports of Spanish companies with which we have transacted since 2016.

Where is the consul now? Where is Bernardo?

He is going to have lunch.

Find out where Bernardo is from the locals.
Where did they last see him? (English)

do you understand me? - Yes. - Just do that. (English)

no answer.

I need a list of visas granted last year.

Carlos, what happened?

Sorry, she didn't tell them what you asked.

She translates for them so they don't worry that you won't be in this position for long and have little time left to suffer.

I swear that's what she said.

- Do you understand Thai?
- Yes, sir.

beautiful.

follow me.

You've achieved your goal, you're hired.

Let's see if we can get something for you. Maybe it's official

There are no jobs available for you. But I need you nearby.

I want you to go over all the files with me.

There are too many Thai documents here, if you don't help me,

I don’t think I’ll come up with anything. - certainly.

I can't trust anyone.

You have seen that anyone can deceive me.

I can only trust you.

The ambassador is talking to Cardenas outside. They just told me.

What did he say to him to put him in such a mood?

Where the hell did he get this guy who speaks Thai?

clam down.

He would look at us under a magnifying glass and it wasn’t funny at all.

And I'm not the only one who thinks so.

Bernardo requested a transfer. They gave it to me.

But he asked not to tell anyone. This is killing me, Eduardo.

If you press Bernardo hard, he will sing loudly.

I'll talk to Bernardo. Go back to your office.

I don't want to be seen talking in the middle of the hallway.

The ambassador will not find anything because there is nothing to look for.

- Yes.
- Fatima, it's me.

- what do you want?
- Are you OK?

Eduardo, what do you want?

I hope you can become friends with the ambassador's wife.

Invite her out shopping. All you want.

Do you want me to know where she was last night?

No. I want to know what's going on in the ambassador's mind

and what instructions Madrid gave him.

You don't expect her to tell me everything today, do you?

No, of course not, but something will be mentioned.

You have a week to get to her.

Did you return the gift to Cardenas?

Yes, of course, no need to worry.

It's time for you to go, right? - No. Why?

It's a pity that you are always in such a hurry.

Sorry, I won't walk you to the door.

- Do you want to see me?
- Yes.

What news did you get from the hotel where the ambassador's wife's passport was found?

The number was registered in
the name of Claudia Cernuda.

She paid with her credit card.

Why did she come so far?

Call the hotel again. Find out how she got there.

If driving, find out if it was a taxi or someone brought it.

OK I'll try it.

Bernardo, why did you ask for a transfer?

I?

I can't do this anymore.

I think it would be better for everyone.

I swear to you I have no intention of telling you anything. I do not know anything.

You are too nervous. I don't think it's the right time to make a decision.

No, no, I'm going to start from scratch.

Start somewhere else and forget everything.

look...

Recently I was told that the Ambassador was asking about me.

It gave me chills. I have to take sleeping pills to sleep.

Eduardo, I can't take it anymore and I'm quitting the game.

No, Bernardo, you can't go out.

If you want you and your family to be able to sleep peacefully, you need to do what I tell you.

You know that, right?

And you still have the strength to keep going, of course.

No matter what happens, you will remain calm in front of the Ambassador and do not say anything unnecessary.

Agree?

We will now go to your office and cancel your transfer request. agree?

Bernardo, we are like family. We must unite.

I'm sure they found something.

Mayte, do you have the authority to send encrypted messages?

Assuming that scheduling should be done through government communications,

But now, yeah, that's what I do. - Send this report to Madrid.

Now.

Met.

What did he tell you? - This is confidential.

certainly. And you should not show this message to anyone.

But until the formal appointment comes, I remain ambassador.

How is your sister? Has she had surgery?

Whatever it is, he will continue to be tested.

I spoke to her via Skype last night. At least the pain is gone.

But my legs are still swollen.

Good luck with the surgery. Do what you have to do.

And keep doing your job.

You need to make a good impression on your new ambassador.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

General Administration of Foreign Affairs. Confidentially.

Today I will report this report to my superiors because I have reason to believe that the management

The embassy may be involved in very serious conduct that requires reporting.

Missing documents, visa stickers, provider invoices,

Quarterly reports. This only leads to an idea,

Someone is trying to hide information.

I don’t know if it is played by one person or several people.

But I know I won’t stop until I have it all figured out.

I come here three times a week.

Sometimes four.

I really don't know why I don't come here more often.

This will become your habit.

By the way, our container was stopped at customs.

This is the norm.

Is it normal for them to tell you that the problem will be resolved within at least a week?

They need to say something.

That's how everything works here.

So you better relax.

Do you know what’s good for you? have a nice trip.

Why don't you come to the Maldives with us?

No, don't laugh.

This way your husband will at least relax a little, otherwise he would have been a little nervous last night.

Yes.

But this is his first week as ambassador.

He wanted to change the world in one week.

You don't have to say anything.

All men.

I don't know, they seem to be trying to prove something.

Well, that's important to him.

Spain has changed now and this must be reflected in the embassy.

All embassies are the same, absolutely everything.

Isolated.

It has been so for centuries. You should know this.

They don't change overnight.

Do you like diving underwater?

crazy. Yes.

Then you will love this place.

Thanks. (English)

- Chin Chin. For your trip. - Chin Chin. For us.

Can you hold on? be right back.

This is the women's room. (English)

I am Ms. Cernuda, a Spanish woman. I was at the embassy last night.

- Do you mind talking outside?
- I object.

I'd rather no one see me talking to you.

I'm also a journalist. Didn't Thomas talk about me?

- No.
- we work together

in the Chronicle a few years ago. Didn't he say anything?

- No, he didn't tell me anything.
- My name is Javier Romero.

I have been living in Bangkok for several years. I work in an agency.

- and?
- I just want you to listen to me.

Did they tell you how the previous ambassador died?

- Got into a car accident.
- This is the official version.

leave.

There. - No. wait.

The ambassador was dead when the car fell into the water.

I saw him being pulled out of the water. He was present at the first autopsy.

certainly? Make a statement.

The body was cremated. The autopsy results have disappeared.

But I managed to read them before they disappeared.

I didn't know where to turn. Are you a journalist?

And Madam Ambassador, maybe you can find evidence from within... help me.

- sorry?
- Yes Yes. sorry. (English)

And be careful. The embassy is really a hornet's nest.

So what if I still dream about changing clothes?

No, no, I didn't see anything.

Where? From the United Nations?

Wait a moment. I'll come in now.

Yes. Oh my God, you're going to die from the heat in here.

Yes.

Yes, I already am. get ready.

Look, don't be so nervous, I'm only here for a month.

Thomas, I have a question.

Do you know Javier Romero?

He said he worked with you.

Can I trust him?

very interesting.

No, that's not what I'm talking about. It's nothing, don't pay attention.

Okay, let me take a look at this and call you back, okay?

Come on, see you later.

Why don't you share this information now?

Who should I share with?

Spending time with the former ambassador's family.

with the Foreign Minister.

With the Spanish police. Why didn't you say anything?

Because this is just suspicion, not reliable information.

We have no evidence.

Thomas Garrido, my editor-in-chief

Said I could trust Romero completely.

But at the same time, everyone around him in Bangkok viewed him negatively.

But you also didn’t tell your husband or daughter anything.

Why?

I don't want to scare them.

This is a big night. For Louis, it's...

First official reception as ambassador.

No one expected that this night would turn into a tragedy.

What will happen is what has happened.

Yes?

Good evening.

Look, there they are.

The shoes are in your pocket.

The new ambassador's right hand is also his future son-in-law.

Everything is so transparent.

They are here to change things.

Okay, let's give them some work then.

Excuse me, Mr. Ambassador, the Chairman of the Railway Association of Thailand is here, he is outside.

Yes, one minute.

Carlos.

He said that visiting the Spanish Embassy was always one of his great pleasures.

Tell him that happiness is mutual.

It’s no exaggeration to say that Spanish people are famous for their hospitality.

You're the only person here that I haven't met yet. I have to solve it. Are you OK?

I'm Roberto. - Hello. I'm Esther.

I don't know anyone here.

Is there any?

Come on, this is just the first night.

Although in the end they all took the exact same path.

look,

See that over there?

The diplomats were too pretentious to be interested in the place, but they continued drinking glass after glass.

Only when all the alcohol is gone do they leave.

As for the entrepreneurs here, they can only talk about cars and clothes...

They come here for free food.

Yes, I know, I'm the ambassador's daughter.

Calm down, it's okay, you represented them well.

Where does so much criticism come from? Why are you here too?

I am because of you. I didn't realize it, but there was no doubt that I was here because of you.

OK, I'm Roberto, Eduardo's brother, special envoy from the embassy.

- Look again.
- Sorry, your name is not here.

Look again. Sarita, my dear, we have known each other for a long time.

But I'm sorry, I can't let you in without an invitation.

You are not on the list.

Eduardo, my dear friend, told this girl that we must be on the invitation list.

Hello Lucia, how are you?

Paco, you are not on the list. You know

And shouldn't have come. - Because you're here?

It's not your responsibility here!

Mr. Ambassador.

You can tell that idiot he can't kick me out of here.

Considering your behavior, I'd rather agree with him.

My behavior was appropriate to the situation and purely diplomatic.

I'm here to do business.

You know, I still do things that I don't plan on,

I will talk to the Thai Transport Minister and yes advise him not to sign the contract under any circumstances

With you, Mr. Cardenas.

What?

Don't you dare touch me!

Could you please leave this reception?

When you eat my ham, you become less principled.

Either you exploit this comrade, or we both hit rock bottom. You will be the first.

let's go.

Fucking idiot.

But you know what? He is right.

Just tell me and I'll do it.

Don't worry, I'll do everything myself.

Roberto.

Why don't you take the ambassador's daughter to heaven?

She doesn't seem to like it here very much.

let us.

Be careful with the car.

We have been invited to a party nearby, can we go?

There will be diplomats there too, but at least most will be younger.

Carlos!

- I'm sorry, but your father needs me.
- Yes. Me too.

I know, but I can't now, if you want, you can go alone.

No.

why not?

Go ahead and relax, and I'll pick you up after the reception here, okay?

Please leave me a message with your address.

- Do you agree?
- Yes.

- You promised me.
- Yes.

OK

- Can I leave it with you?
- let us.

Thanks.

- let's go?
- Yes, Carlos will come later, he promised.

Where do you want to go?

I don't know, in a place where no one knows me.

No one here knows you, but you get a lot of attention.

is this real? So it seems that I am not a local?

- No, I didn't mean that.
- Oh no? Come on, get started.

Hide it, the embassy pays for it.

- Is Thailand really dangerous?
- You what.

Just don’t walk around the neighborhood alone, don’t ride in unfamiliar cars, don’t drink bottled water,

Don't carry around too much money, and don't discuss the royal family or political power with anyone.

And it's not worth it...

gentlemen.

The embassy's emergency phone suddenly rang.

A Spanish citizen was detained. She has drugs.

I think this is your daughter Esther.

- Esther?
- dad?

Dad, is that you?

- Yes, it's me, what happened?
- I don't know, I don't understand anything.

They said they found drugs in my wallet.

You have to get me out of here.

Esther, listen to me, we'll get you out of there.

- Dad, please get me out of here.
- Esther, Esther!

Esther!

It broke.

what will you do?

In the next episode...
