The Alcazár of Madrid
Friday
- Philip, put it on. - No.
- Yes. - I do not want to.
- Do it for me. - No.
Yes. Your Magesty...
No, I refuse.
- I am not going to sleep in that shirt. - It is clean
- and freshly ironed. - It is poisoned.
- Again with the... - They want to kill me.
This again?
Give me it.
You see? I am still alive.
The shirt is perfectly fine.
Play something softer, a "Marionas",
to lull his Magesty to sleep.
- Feel better? - Yes.
- Good night. - Good night.
You can take off your masks.
Stealing paintings from a king,
one of my life's dreams.

Chapter 17 Oil on Time
Goodbye, Sitges 2010. Any closer in time
and we could have used a travel agency to get there.
There is one thing that I still do not understand.
Don't tell me you don't understand love between two men.
That is just... no, let us leave it. No, it is with regards to that conclave...
- The Bilderberg Club. - Yes. They have been meeting for
more than 60 years to try and better the world and nothing.
- Why do they not stop meeting? - That's not a bad idea.
- You've solved it. - I should go, boys.
It's my father's Saint Feast Day and if I'm late my mother will kill me.
Oh, I had invited you to sup in my humble abode.
- I forgot, I'm sorry. - Count me in.
I'll see you Monday. Have a good weekend.
- See you Monday. - How strange.
Amelia is not one to forget an invitation.
Have you been spending a lot of time with her lately?
Yes, she has come over and Pacino, she and I
entertained ourselves doing modern things.
- Modern things. - Mmhm.
- I won't ask. - Yes, well, we ate popcorn,
watched television, it was nice.
Esteemed Mr. Salvador Martí,
I am writing this letter to inform you that I am renouncing my post
as Official Portrait Artist for the Ministry of Time.
What lovely handwriting, Don Diego. Rotunda?
More like mongrel.
You seem tense.
- Yes, I am going to resign. - Again?
No, this time I am serious.
Yeah, like the last seven times.
I am fed up. They treat me like a common pencil pusher.
- I want to return to Italy. - You can't.
You won't go back to Italy for 12 more years,
when you turn 50. Anything else would change history.
I do not care.
I feel stunted, Angustias. I want to grow as an artist.
More?
It can not be. This painting does not exist.
Is it a copy?
No, I did paint it.
But... it was lost when the Aclazar of Madrid burned down.
In 1734.
- You've seen, too? - Of course.
Google lets me know when my name appears on the internet.
As always, your ego is insatiable, Velazquez.
- Are you sure it's not a copy? - Completely sure.
Then we have a problem.
Yes, inter-temporal art traffickers.
We've seen this before. We have to go immediately
to the court of Felipe V and find out what they know.
It won't be possible to send someone immediately.
- I could go. - No. Are there no available teams?
- What about Amelia and her guys? - Just got back from Sitges.
They've been working months without a break and this weekend they have off.
- Really, I could go. - I said no.
And Ortigosa's team? Aren't they on call?
No, they're fixing some trade problems with the Phoenicians.
- Was there only one team on call? - The rest had already gone past 40 hours.
- We compensated them with days off. - And later they'll say we're not in a recession.
I can go. I don't mind traveling again.
Fine, but you can't go alone.
- I can accompany her. - I said no.
Why not? They are my paintings! You know what I say?
It would be helpful if Velázquez came with me.
He knows all the paintings by memory
that were destroyed when th Alcázar burned.
- That is true. - Fine, both of you go.
- You're letting me go on a mission? - Yes, I'm letting you go.
You owe me a portrait.
Velázquez, where are you going? Where are you going?
To get ready.
Please, go with him, don't let him out of your sight.
Don't let him get into trouble. Look around, see what's going on,
- but don't intervene. - No, don't worry.
There are three days until the Alcázar burns,
so that leaves us two nights to work.
- And how many pieces? - 40.
In the king's gallery and part of the chapel.
We won't make it.
- What's that? - Eh... Nothing.
One of Berruguete's saints fell on me.
- Whose? - For God's sake.
- It's impossible to say that name. - Come on, try, "Berruguete".
Lola, you have to ask Ferguson for reinforcements.
Yes, I don't know why he still hasn't sent anyone to replace Cooper.
By the way, do you know if Walcott is still out?
- Yes, he's sick. - Oh.
I hope he gets better soon because we sure could use him.
Is something wrong?
Walcott won't ever leave the hospital again.
I had no idea.
I'm sorry.
Oh, pardon.
I'm sorry, miss, I didn't think anyone was here.
Wait, don't tell my...
Mother.
It's exquisite, mother. As if she made it herself.
- Enric. - It is a joke, woman.
The cook does what she can.
Your "suquet de peix" is unsurpassed.
Thank you.
- Shall I remove the plates? - Yes, Enriqueta.
- What is for dessert? - Buñuelos de Ampurdán
- and "carquiyolis" with the coffee.
There is nothing like celebrating your Saint day. I just remembered, Enriqueta,
- it's your Saint day too. - Yes, Don Enric.
Well come on, bring a bottle of wine with the sweets
and sit with us to celebrate.
You like it, eh?
My recipe for boar with chesnuts is very good.
- It's good, yeah. - Yes.
Although a little strong for a late supper, yeah?
- No, why? - No?
I do not know.
It is a shame Amelia did not come.
I would have liked to hear her opinion.
On what? On the food?
And... and also other things.
Don't you value mine?
You are not a woman.
Well, no one is perfect.
Come on, let's go over the plan.
Have you brought the list of the paintings that were lost?
- I know it by heart. - Very good,
but if you bring a list, better.
- You are my guardian angel. - You go too far.
Look, someone's left a camera.
Excuse me, is this your camera?
No. I paint, I do not cheat.
- Oh, look at you. - If you take a look
at the pictures that are on the camera it might give you a clue
- as to who is the owner. - Ah, yes.
- Well, good night. - Have a nice weekend.
Back to us. Who will we be passing ourselves off as?
Yes, we are a married couple,
originally from Almendralejo,
that has amassed a great fortune in the Americas.
Exactly, what else?
We are visiting the King so that he can grant us a noble title
- in exchange... - In exchange for a painting by Velázquez,
that is to say, one of yours,
that has been in our family as long as we can remember.
- Juan, can you bring me a coffee, please? - I wanted to speak with you about that.
We are investigating the theft of one painting, why take them another?
Only one of your paintinge with gain us Philip V's favor.
There is no other way to gain an audience.
Do you want them to steal that one too? It is a Velázquez.
I had an idea.
Queen Elisabeth was a lover of fine food.
She loved the cheese from her homeland. They called it Parmesan.
- So? - Your coffee.
Thank you.
In place of a painting we could take her a cheese,
one of those enormous ones that weigh a ton.
She'll make us lords.
Are you pulling my chain, Velázquez?
Tomorrow I want you here with your painting and without any cheese, understood?
Tell me, Enriqueta, are you happy in this house?
Yes, sir and excuse me, it's just that everything is so good
and I prefer not to speak with my mouth full.
Relax and eat, Enriqueta.
Amelia, it has been a while since you've received a letter from your fiancé.
Any word from the front?
No, mother.
Don't they allow him to write?
Sunday remind me to light a candle for Saints Cosmas and Damian.
Yes, wife, every little bit helps in Cuba.
Well.
- And now, dessert. - Very good.
- Did you make it, too? - No, they are from the supermarket.
They were on sale.
I see you're adapting well to this time.
- In some things, yes, but in others... - Others terrify you.
- How did you know? - Womanly instinct, obviously.
You've met a woman, right?
Not exactly, it is not about that.
- Damn it. - I'll grab it.
- Yes? - Alonso Entrerrios?
Yes, I'll put him on.
It's for you.
Yes, hello.
Hi, it's Elena, the lawyer, do you remember me?
- Remember you? Upon my soul I... - Just say yes.
Yes, yes.
Sorry for calling so late.
Do you remember the eviction of Josafina Pérez?
Yes.
I was just working on the defense for the protestors
and I would like to know if you have a little time free tomorrow
- to ask you a few questions. - Tomorrow. Tomorrow?
- Tomorrow, It will be my honor... - Yes, yes.
- Yes. - It does not matter, she hung up.
Oh so, it wasn't a woman, it was... a goat, a rabbit.
That is not exactly what this is about, I would never lie to you.
And what is it about?
This Elena
is Blanca, my wife.
- You're saying they look alike, Alonso. - No, she is identical, Julián, identical.
I can not prove it because in my time photographs did not exist,
- but I swear to you, it is her. - I believe you.
Does anyone else know?
Pacino.
I did not want to mention anything to you, because I feared that my distress
would reopen your old wounds.
There are wounds that never heal, nor should they.
We have to move forward, Alonso.
I learned that in Cuba and the Philippines.
You do not know how happy it makes me to hear you say those words.
Come on, let's get those desserts.
And you can tell me everything,
Saturday
Hey, careful, that's a Velázquez.
Ay... I am a painter, not a porter.
This way, follow me.
Here it is.
I smell cheese.
I brought a little parmesan, just in case.
You first, Don Diego.
1734.
Here we come.
So you are from Almendralejo.
And how did you find the place after all these year?
- The same. - Changed.
The first challenge in a marriage
is staying united with someone who thinks the opposite of you in everything.
How very true.
Tell me, what brings you here?
We wish to celebrate Christmas in Spain
- and stay here until Easter. - A Godly person
- will always be wealthy. - That is true.
I have heard that you bring a painting by the great Velázquez.
I see that you admire Velázquez.
The greatest painter this kingdom has seen.
Even Rubens said so.
Yes, Rubens admired the works of the distinguished master from Seville.
- Did you know they met? - I believe that the queen
would prefer to see the painting than continue talking
- and talking about it's painter. - Ah, yes, of course.
Eh...
It has been in our family ever since we can remember.
It is a portrait of a woman with a fan.
Oh, it is beautiful.
The king will love it.
It reminds me of his favorite.
The portrait of a woman with a handkerchief.
I must confess that he loves it so much
I have even felt jealous of that painted woman from time to time.
We would love to behold that painting
- even just for a moment. - Impossible.
It is in the King's private chambers.
I will make sure this painting reached the King.
We would like to present it to him in person so that we can pay our respects.
The King is indisposed and is not receiving guests.
What a shame.
We were so looking forward to it.
In Almendralejo we have a large collection of Velázquez's works
and we had thought to present them to his Magesty
since they could deteriorate on our voyage back to America, is that not so?
Yes.
Fine, let us go.
You must know that the king has been rather restless.
He suffers from meloncholic vapors that cloud his spirit.
Lt us hope that my painting will cheer him.
- The painting, our painting. - The one... the family one.
Are you certain that you would not like a coffee or anything else?
No, thank you, I don't want to be a bother.
I've called you a few times and you don't answer your phone.
- I needed to speak with you. - Yes, it is just that...
I must travel often for my job
and sometimes the telephone does not function.
You must travel far.
I never leave Spain, truth be told.
Lope, Calderón, Cervantes.
You don't have a lot of books, but they're all from the Golden Age.
It is my... my favorite time period.
I can tell. I love Cervantes, but the others not so much.
I'm more of a 19th or 20th century woman.
I am from Seville.
Great.
And...
and you?
I'm from here, Madrid, but my parents are from Córdoba,
Andalucians, like you, although you don't have much accent.
No, no, but... because... for work,
I have to spend a great deal of time away.
Yeah.
- With respect to testifying... - Don't worry about it.
I know you aren't going to do it.
If they got you out of jail that quickly
it's because you have important contacts, that don't want you involved in this.
You got into a fight with the Police to defend me without...
worrying about getting into trouble, why did you do it?
Because I do not like to see a lady being abused.
I could not control myself.
Thank you for helping me.
Well, I'm going, I don't want to be a bother.
You did not come here to talk about testifying.
You knew that I would not do it.
- Yes. - Then why?
I wanted to thank you for defending me without even knowing me.
You are the strangest man I have ever met, Alonso.
- And I'd like to know more about you. - Know?
- What do you mean? - Go out to dinner, have a drink.
- Oh. - But only if you want.
I'm not pushy.
If you need me, just whistle.
And you say it is a Velázquez?
Without a doubt, your Magesty. The palette of warm colors
and the light, smooth brushstrokes are undeniably those of the master.
If you say so, good man.
Your Magesty has always been more of a handkerchief person than a fan one.
That is exactly what I though. A good handkerchief is all you really need.
Isabel, put it in a safe place.
Lately...
there are spirits in the Alcázar.
They watch me, they keep me awake.
And they take down the paintings without rhyme or reason.
Spirits, your Magesty?
I am hungry!
- Bring me my boiled chicken. - Right away.
- Do you want broth with the chicken? - Has it been cooked...?
- Fake. - Are you sure?
Anything else will make me ill.
It would be best if we let his Magesty rest.
The servants have done everything so that your stay here
will be as pleasant as possible.
Who are you?
I'm Lola.
Lola Mendieta.
Lola Mendieta.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
I didn't want to wake you.
I'll soon have plenty of time to sleep.
Thank you.
- Why are you here? - How are you?
I've told Fergusson
that I'm going to make everything public.
My wife has taken all the documents to a lawyer,
the documents that prove...
You don't know anything.
What should I know?
The radiation is killing me.
- What radiation? - From the tunnel.
The system... the teletransportation system.
It gets inside our bodies
and poisons us.
We're lab rats.
One day you'll start to bleed
and clumps of your hair
will fall out.
That day you'll know I'm right.
Help me.
Please, help me.
Travel to the past.
Travel to the past and destroy them.
Destroy them before they destroy us all!
- Relax. - Destroy them, please!
Help, help me please.
Please do it.
Help.
Please, leave.
Lola, do it! Please, do it!
Do it!
Mendieta! Do it!
If you want all the originals, we need more workers.
Whatever we don't have time to get out tonight and tomorrow
- will be lost forever. - I'll assign two more people.
I am planning on holding the auction next week.
That won't be enough time to catalog all the pieces.
It'll have to be. Our clients aren't accustomed to waiting.
They want the total experience.
Time-travel and the auction in the 18th century, okay?
Okay.
I went to visit Walcott in the hospital this morning.
He's convinced that he's gotten sick...
because of us.
The cancer has metastasized in his brain.
It's terrible.
All of his theories have no basis.
But he can't be reasoned with.
And what about the radiation?
The emissions are within international standards,
much less than are produced by a simple x-ray.
Would you like to see the reports by our engineers?
Please.
Come in.
I brought your milk.
Thank you, you can leave it there.
- Good night, miss. - Wait.
Thank you for not saying anything to my mother.
No, it is not important.
Is something wrong?
If you have a fiance, how can you like women?
Why do you say that?
You wear trousers like some of those women of Saint Madrona.
It's a long story, but I like men.
Well.
- If you don't need anything else... - Yes, actually...
I wanted to give you a present for you Saint Day.
It's just a small thing.
It's beautiful.
Thank you so much, Miss.
- No one's ever given me a present. - Well, it is about time.
You are a very good person.
Your fiancé will return soon and you can get married.
- You'll see. - My fiancé.
- Has something happened to him? - No, no, he's just...
far away.
My mother says that distance kills love.
But I believe that if you truly love each other, the love never dies.
One day I will also find the love of my life.
And I'll love him forever.
How will you know the difference between the love of your life and someone who isn't?
That can't be explained.
You just feel it and know.
It's like... butterflies in your stomach.
And it only happens once and it lasts forever.
- That's what they say, yeah? - Yes.
That's what they say. Have you ever felt that way?
The only butterflies I feel are when I'm hungry.
My mother says that one day I'll have a young man by my side too.
And we'll have many children.
Like you.
You'll see.
Is it truly necessary to wear the night clothes?
We are man and wife and if that nosy Queen
sends a servant to spy on us it's better if she doesn't suspect anything.
Tell me, what have you found out?
The majority of the paintings in the palace are cheap copies.
Is there any place where the paintings could be originals?
In the Hall of the Mirrors.
The "Apollo", and "Adonis and Venus" are there
- and the "Psyche and Cupid" that I painted. - Those will be the next ones they steal.
We should watch them tonight.
- What a disaster. - What's wrong now, Velázquez?
They could not have let me come on a sadder mission.
I must make sure that my paintings are not stolen so that they can become fuel for the flames.
Do you know how much time I dedicated to them?
- The love that I painted them with? - I understand, really,
perfectly, but you know that the Ministry's main objective
is that history doesn't change.
I understand history, but
this is art history, they are peintings that do not hurt anyone
and that the whole world could see in museums.
What's wrong?
Does my sorrow...
bore you?
Sunday
Don Diego.
Don Diego, Don Diego.
- What? - Eh?
- Oh, sorry! - Eh? No, no.
- I was not trying... - No, no, no, no...
I know, I know. Uh...
I think they knocked us out.
They will have stolen more paintings last night.
- How? - With gas.
This is a well organized effort and we're going to need help.
- But where are you going? - To see which paintings are left.
Good idea. Ernesto.
Yes, I know it's Sunday.
This mission is a difficult one. We're going to need help.
Irene and Velázquez are in 1734
investigating what seemed like the theft of a single painting,
but the situation has become more complicated.
We have reason to believe that it's a a large-scale robbery
designed to clean out the Alcázar of Madrid.
- That's the year of the fire, right? - Yes, causing it's total destruction.
As a matter of fact you are going to arrive only 24 hours before the fire.
What a disappointment.
The fire is the key to this perfect crime.
Perfect no, Ernesto. There is no perfect crime.
- just inept police. - Fine, almost perfect.
Night after night someone is replacing the originals with copies,
which will burn without a trace.
So we have to trap the thief
and recover the originals so that they can burn
- in place of the copies, right? Yes.
- Do you have something to say, Miss Folch? - Yes.
It bothers me that we are working with a imbicile like Felipe V.
They say that he ordered that the Alcazar be burned.
Damn. I see that you're not a fan of Felipe V.
I would like him better if he hadn't ordered a year-long seige on my city
and systematically bombed it.
- When you put it that way... - Anyway,
I understand that by that year he wasn't doing much ruling.
It was Queen Elisabeth of Parma who wore the pants.
- Why? - Well, because the king was...
How do I say this... off his rocker.
Well, as a matter of fact, I have his medical file right here.
Let's see.
"Type 1 bipolar disorder,
hypochondria, manic episodes, paranoia
eating disorders, hallucinations,
nihilistic delusions..." Not a pretty picture.
Mmhm, exactly. Just to be safe, try not to upset him too much.
You leave immediately.
When you arrive at Alcázar, report to Irene for orders.
Your Magesty, it is an honor to present to you my daughter, Amelia
and her fiancé, Don Alonso de Entrerríos.
My future son-in-law served with honor under the former viceroy of New Spain
- Don Juan de Acuña. - And young Amelia, did she know Spain?
I barely remember it, I was very young when I left.
I hope that you like it.
Not many from the Americas receive an invitation from the King.
I know. It is very generous on his part, Magesty.
I can not wait to see the paintings by the master Velázquez.
- They have not arrived yet, Magesty. - I thought that your son-in-law brought them.
Eh... Yes, yes.
It is just that the road from Almendralejo
is not very easy... it is very steep.
We came on horseback, the servants are bringing the paintings on foot.
I would never forgive myself if the works of such a great master
suffered any incident.
I hope they do not take long.
It would be a shame
if this were to slow the process in the Supreme Council.
For your noble title.
Do not worry, Magesty.
The paintings will arrive at the palace in a few days.
And who is this young man, so handsome...
- and so quiet? - Doctor Julián Martínez,
a close friend of the family, recently arrived from Sorbonne.
- Martínez? - Mmhm.
Are you be related to Doctor Martín Martínez,
- God rest his soul? - Uh...No.
No, I do not think so. I do not think so.
Martín was our most loved royal doctor, a great surgeon.
What is your specialty?
Balancing the humors,
the cure for melancholic vapours.
You mean to say that... they can be cured?
The vapours arise from an excess of blood,
causing the gases to ascend into the brain,
obstructing the blood flow.
Perhaps you could examine the King.
His Catholic Magesty is not feeling very...
Catholic?
What did you say?
Uh... It would be an honor to examine him.
Magesty, the King has escaped.
Again?
Lord, why do you test me so?
Philip, for the love of God!
- Ah! - Help the King!
Relax! Relax!
But, what is wrong with him?
According to historians, his magesty sometimes believed himself to be a frog.
Get him out of the water!
Magesty, you should drink this.
"Forfosi. Larreson, le carrange..."
Robin Williams has nothing on you. Make an effort, Magesty.
What have you given me, doctor?
It is a medicinal mixture, it comes from France.
- Just like me. - I know, Magesty, I know.
I loved France.
And Versailles.
"Oh, lá, lá".
With her fantastic gardens.
- Have you been? - No, no, no.
The Alcázar of Madrid, is the only palace I've known.
I am sorry for you.
This is a hut compared to Versailles.
I do not think you've visited many huts.
And why would I?
- I am the king. - Of course.
Take another sip.
My grandfather Luis forced me to leave.
He did not want me to be a rival to my older brother.
The last time I saw him he said: "Be Spanish.
That is your one and only obligation".
What insanity, me, Spanish, when I could be French.
- And the Queen? - Waiting outside.
- I'll have them call for her. - Wait.
I am tired.
As you wish, Magesty.
No.
You do not understand.
I am tired of being King.
What do you mean?
I gained the throne a decade ago.
But God...
has not allowed me to enjoy that blessing.
He took my first-born son.
A tradgedy.
And then, the Queen...
made me return.
Sometimes our responsibilities are bigger then ourselves.
Sit.
And you, have you never felt the urge to just leave it all behind?
I do not need an empire to be happy.
I only need two things in life,
a Bible...
and a woman.
- And the palace at Versaille. - Ah...
That... too.
- One more sip? - Yes.
Thank you.
What is bothering you, Magesty?
My husband can not stand to be closed away in the Alcázar.
He hates Castilian architecture.
In one of his worst times I started the Royal Visits,
almost five years travelling around Andalucía
to make my husband happy.
- Not even that helped. - And music does not calm him?
I want to bring Farinello to sing for him.
Oh, "il castrato".
As a young woman, when I arrived at court, they laughed at me because I was uneducated.
I was chosen because they believed I was an obedient princess,
incapable of controlling the intrigues of court.
But you are not.
If I were, this empire would be mired in absolute chaos.
The only thing I need is to make my husband happy...
so that I can continue to govern.
"... Moriscos".
"The Expulsion of the Moriscos", done.
- Don Diego, we have to go. - One... one more minute.
We can not be here standing around.
Tell me, would you give up the opportunity to see once more
something that you had given up for lost?
If it were something that I loved very much, well I do not know, I would try to get it back.
As loved as a child... or a wife.
Do you know the story of this painting?
No, but I fear you are going to tell me.
Do not worry, I will be brief.
Let us hope.
In 1627, there was a tender in the court of my king, Philip IV,
and various artists bid to paint the subject.
None of my stature, of course.
One of them was this Italian charlatan...
Carducho, a well-connected idiot.
The prize was rich:
the position of Gentleman Usher
and enough qualifications to obtain a title and land.
- And two years salary, a dream. - Yes, and?
As it could not have been otherwise,
my sketch was chosen by his magesty.
Months later,
when the king could gaze upon it in all it's splendor,
he knew that he had made the correct selection.
All this talent,
all this effort will be lost like tears in rain.
- It... - Yes, Don Diego, but...
but now we have to get back to our people.
- Good-bye, my son. - Good-bye.
Good-bye. Come on, let us go, Don Diego.
Let's go. Let's go, let's go.
There are only two areas left with paintings in the Alcázar:
the chapel and the king's gallery, inside the great hall.
And my painting, "The Expulsion of the Moriscos"
- Yes. - The goal is
not to tip off the theives.
We have to intercept one without the others knowing.
- Or they'll all come up. - Exactly.
Amelia will watch the great hall, me, the royal bedchamber,
and you two, the hallways that lead to the chapel.
We don't know what their plan is.
The first one to see the thieves,
- should advise the rest. - And what shall I do?
We can't put you in any danger, Velázquez.
- Salvador's orders. - I am supposed to stay here,
and miss all the excitement, the adventure?
Useless, like... like Goya's "Puppet".
On the contrary.
You will be in charge of communications,
- a vital part of this mission. - Wonderful.
Take these.
Make sure that the batteries are always charged.
And remember: our lives are in your hands.
Uh... How do these things work?
Then... Am I still alive, Doctor?
Yes, your Magesty. You can sleep unpreturbed.
Sweet dreams, my king.
Your remedy is a miracle.
You are a medical genius.
We should let him sleep.
Amelia here, in position. Awaiting instructions.
Irene here. I'm in position. They've all left.
Alonso here.
I have nothing to say.
- This... - My God, Don Diego.
For the love of God. Tell me how this goes?
- In your ear. - I'll be there in a minute.
They're inside.
- I repeat: they're inside. - Copy
Follow me.
They're speaking English.
It's Darrow.
ALonso, Julían, on alert.
They're headed toward Amelia.
They're here. Wait for my signal.
They're starting.
Copy.
"Velázquez here. Have they taken any of the Velázquezes?".
- Velázquez? - "Advise me when they take my painting".
"Don Diego, get off the intercom".
"I can not. I am in charge of the communications".
Well be quiet, please.
The gas has already dissapated. You can take your masks off.
Heads up, one's leaving. - "He's all yours, boys."
The bird is in the nest.
Stop talking about birds, you confuse me.
Help me. He weighs a ton.
Come on.
- Is he dead? - Unconscious.
Bring some water.
Good morning!
What are you doing here?
We know that you're replacing the original paintings with copies.
Better they're in a museum than in ashes, right?
- I completely agree. - We know they're not going to a museum.
- And what do you know? - Fine, enough.
- Where are the paintings, ruffian? - I'm not going to tell you anything.
We'll see about that.
I am not afraid to die.
The sooner, the better.
You'll save me some suffering.
What are you talking about?
Our method of time-travel
it's less elegant, but without a doubt more reliable.
I have no idea what the hell he's talking about.
Enough beating around the bush.
Where are the paintings? - Yes, exactly.
Enough beating around the bush.
Come on, run!
What was that? Can you hear me?
He pulled the trigger.
But, why did he kill himself?
Darrow's men are escaping. "Can you hear me?"
There's no time, we have to follow them.
You no. Someone has to watch the dead guy.
Damn. We are too late.
- Shit. - Like always.
- Hold on. Let's open this door. - Ghosts!
You are ghosts!
No, your Magesty. It is me, the doctor.
Alonso, give me some light.
Open your mouth.
Go on, swallow.
Now.
Now, now.
My God.
All right, ladies first.
- And Amelia? - Wait for her.
This way.
There is no sign of the enemy.
But we've found what we're looking for.
How magnificent.
- Astonishing. - Extraordinary.
Fan-fucking-tastic.
Congratulations, team. Good work.
- You recovered the paintings. - But we haven't finished with Darrow.
Catching those dolts will not be an easy job.
Don't worry too much about them.
Surely they'll cross our path again.
And my portrait, "Woman with Fan"?
True. What happened to that idiot in the selfie who bought it?
Well, Ernesto is taking care of recovering them at this very moment.
Why?
I would rather a millionare in Wisconsin have it than for it to burn.
When you look at it that way...
Isn't that the fate that awaits it?
Like the rest of my works, they... they are going to burn them.
Could you all go out for a moment, please?
You too, Irene. This deserves a private conversation.
If it makes you feel better we aren't going to burn just your paintings.
Ah, yes.
Misery loves company...
I thought that you wouldn't dare after all.
- Put yourself in my place. - Put yourself in mine.
I know how you feel.
But since the beginning of the mission you knew this moment would arrive.
History says that more than 500 paintings burned,
- and that's how it has to be. - And it will be.
The 500 copies that are in the Alcazar could burn.
Yes, of course, man. And we're left with the 500 originals free and clear.
This time, you can fix this tradgedy without changing history.
It is a great opportunity.
Bosch, Tiziano, Rubens, Leonardo... They deserve it.
I am sorry, Diego.
Sooner or later you will regret this.
- I'll be back. - I'm sure of it.
I have never met anyone more annoying in all my life.
Come on, who's up for last call?
- Last call? What does that mean? - No idea.
Who feels like a drink before going home?
I can't, they're expecting me. Take care.
Is it just me or is Amelia avoiding me?
I would not know. I have enough problems of my own.
The cafeteria is closed.
Shall we sit here a while?
Any excuse not to go home.
Domestic problems?
Yeah, yeah, they're still...
The memories are still there and they're a bitch.
It's not easy to escape them.
In fact I'm thinking of selling the house.
I, if you wish, can offer you a cot.
It is not very comfortable, but at least it would be a change of scenery.
Thank you.
- May I ask you a question? - Shoot.
Pacino always said that.
You miss him, yeah?
It was nice to have company in the house.
What did you want to ask me?
The drink that you gave to Philip V to calm his nerves,
- what was it? - And anti-psychotic and benzodiazepine.
- Tranquilizers. - Oh. It is just...
I think that I should take something like that.
Huh?
- Elena. - Elena, Blanca
and all the souls in purgatory.
- Not even in battle have I suffered such fear. - And what did you do then?
Well I closed my eyes, steeled my will,
- and commended myself to God. - Well that's not a bad plan.
Better than the tranquilizers, I assure you.
Who's there?
Good night, Miss.
What are you doing awake?
I was hungry and I couldn't resist the temptation.
I beg your pardon.
Give me one?
You're stealing?
Out of necessity, miss.
My mother is very ill and we don't have money for medicine.
You could have asked me for the money.
- I was ashamed. - And you're not ashamed to steal?
It would be best if when my parents awake you are no longer in this house.
- You're throwing me out? - You've broken our trust.
I lied for you.
That is very different.
You mother would not like to know that you wear trousers under your skirt.
Tell her.
And also tell her that you tried to take the silver.
What will I do now?
What will happen to my family?
Take this.
The rest of your monthly pay.
And now, leave.
Come in.
Boss, you have a visitor.
They must be very important for you to announce them.
You aren't going to believe it.
Long time, no see, Salvador.
You haven't aged.
You either, Lola.
How did you get here?
Through a door.
I know of more doors than you at the Ministry.
Yeah, of course.
- Coffee. - No thanks, very kind of you.
Being kind is the least I can do...
since I'm going to imprision you for life later.
No you won't.
You seem sure of yourself.
I'm going to make you an offer you can't refuse.
I'm sorry, but...
your nose is bleeding.
Thank you.
- Are you well? - Perfectly.
I think I'll accept that coffee.
And why should I believe you?
I want to end Darrow.
And I'm offering you Ferguson's head on a plate.
Sounds too good to be true.
And why would I lie to you?
I've entered into the lion's den.
But knowing you long history of many betrayals
I am not surprised you want to end your own people.
They are not mine... just like I am not anyone's.
Right.
But why risk your life to help us?
I've been risking my life for many months now.
Also, I want to ask a favor in return.
Ah, of course, I understand.
Don't destroy the original works of art from the Alcázar.
Do you want them to decorate your living room?
I want them to stay here, in the Ministry,
under your care.
Fine, I accept.
You liquidate Darrow... and I'll save the paintings.
- Just one more thing. - Name it.
You know that I wasn't happy
that you copied part of the Book of Doors
that burned in the synagogue.
Those unregistered doors...
have caused us more than one problem day in and day out.
I propose a treaty with respect to them.
From now on, if you don't mind, it will stay in my posession.
One never knows when if might be useful.
Mmhm.
I hope I don't regret it.
- You won't. - Mmhm.
And when do you plan to end Darrow.
Right now.
If you're not too busy...
May I use your desk, please?
What else?
And I'm sorry, but I don't think you should be seen on screen.
Where have you been? I thought you had died.
That would make your life easier, right?
What happened to the mission? Do you have the paintings?
"I'm going to answer your second question first.
The paintings are here, in the Ministry of Time."
And the mission...
- is over. - "What are you talking about?"
You promised me the art.
What am I going to tell the buyers?
You can tell them that Darrow is done,
that the trips in time are over...
and you won't be sacrificing any more employees.
"No company is worth more than the life of a human being"
Look at the reports, for God's sake.
I told you that Walcott was loco, crazy
"All he told were lies, lies."
- What will I see next? - "Are you still there?"
You are the liar, you son of a bitch.
Lola, Lola. No, no, no!
"You won't lie again.
I held up my end of the deal.
Now it's your turn, Salvador."
Shit.
I said I would return and here I am.
- A man of your word. - I resign.
- Find yourself another sketch artist. - Listen to me...
- It is irrevocable. - No, sit down...
- I do not belong here, I am no one. - LIsten to me for once, damn it!
Let's see.
I've been considering your petition to save the artwork
and after some serious meditation on what you said
I'm convinced, you're right, Velázquez.
We aren't going to destroy them.
Are you being serious?
Of course. They will stay at the Ministry.
So that paper is worthless now.
I am happy that my arguments have made you change your mind.
Once again
you have been essential to the history of art.
Elena?
Well, here's the place.
As you can see, it has ample light.
Through here we have, the master bedroom.
Mother of God in Heaven. But, what are you doing?
What do you think, silly?
The Hatless Ones.
Women belonging to the Generation of '27.
Forgotten by history.
You followed me to the Ministry?
I borrowed your book of the doors
and I've made a grave mistake.
Who left this open?
"Until next time, Bye from Nexus 6"
Is that him?
There are many things about my past that I do not know.
In Madrid, in the '80s there was
a rash of babies being stolen shortly after birth.
I've treated you like a queen, little girl.
We are traveling to your time and your city.
Is there no danger of running into another you?
How is it possible that the young woman we've seen
will end up changed into such a monster?
If you don't let me go, I'll kill the boy. I'll kill him.
Agents, time is running out and we've got nothing.
Do you have children?
Or cooperate with us,
or you are going to experience sensations you have never felt before.
The Entrerríos Method never fails.
It could be my fault that the vampire exists.
I can forgive you any mistake except giving up.
We need you.
Ah!
To seperate a child from it's own mother is the worst of all crimes.
It's a subject I know about first hand.
- Tell me your name. - Salvador.
What the hell is this Nexus 6 thing?
