"WHEN YOU ARE AFRAID, YOU TURN TO STONE AND DIE BEFORE YOUR TIME." CARL JUNG.

GREEK MYTHOLOGY

BÁRBARA IS BOTH BEINGS THAT'S WHY SHE MUST DIE

RESIGN

[dramatic sting]

[baby crying]

[sinister laughing]

[sinister laughing continues]

[eerie music fades]

[Jaqueline] That idea of yours to get closer to Bárbara was a disaster.

She ended up humiliating me.

The foundations still have a contract with Medusa until the end of the month.

Mm?

That's why we're moving all the money to offshore accounts.

We'll justify the income thanks to fake suppliers.

-Okay. -Right? I know.

Then you're already aware that we need Bárbara.

-Mm? -Yes, that's true.

[suspenseful music playing]

Now that Camilo is getting out of prison, we have to play on all three sides.

That's right.

Three sides indeed.

We have to think about ourselves first, before anyone else.

-Yes. -Yes?

Yes.

[suspenseful music continues to play]

Did you tell Bárbara what happened to you?

What, are you crazy?

She's already under a lot of stress. Why would I make it worse?

We need to find the guy who threw that shit at me.

Then maybe I'll tell her.

I'm just trying to say.

We should add more suspects to that list, not just members of the family.

Because, hey, I know it sounds bad, but…

we know the Bárbara she is now, but how about her past?

We don't know what kind of people she was involved with.

[melancholic music playing]

Hi, Mom.

Maya!

What a nice surprise!

Here. I have kibbeh with tahini.

Seriously?

I was guessing you'd forget to eat.

Ah! You're right. It's true.

Mmm.

Why was the company called Medusa?

You don't know the story?

Medusa is a monster who turned everyone who saw her into stone.

That's part of the story, but not all of it.

All right, Medusa was the guardian of Athena's temple.

She was a good woman, and she was beautiful.

But one day Poseidon raped her in the temple.

Imagine. Athena was furious about this desecration

and blamed Medusa for seducing the god of the seas.

She turned her into a monster with snakes to replace her hair.

[suspenseful music playing]

But the worst part

is that she lost her ability to love,

because her eyes turned everyone who looked at her into stone.

[dramatic sting]

Poor thing, but at the end she did become a monster.

No, she was turned into a monster. That's different.

But it's a bad name, whether she's a victim or a villain.

No, Maya, no.

Medusa represents empathy to victims of abuse,

and she's the feminine rage.

It's a symbol.

A symbol of strength and courage.

Do you know who chose that name for the company?

Your grandma.

[Danger] I've been thinking, man.

I don't know if I know the woman that I'm with.

Yeah. Hey, but don't overthink it too much, man.

You fell in love with the Bárbara you met after the accident,

not the one from the past.

Yeah, I know. But, you know, our past is important.

The Bárbara from before is also part of who she is.

I get it, but hold on.

You could leave your past behind. Why can't she?

Look how it's coming back to haunt me now.

-That's another thing. -Carmelo!

Look at this.

[suspenseful music playing]

Hair fiber.

Oh, wow!

You still got it. I can't believe it! I thought they put you out to pasture.

I'll send it to the lab to see if we have a record of this person,

and we'll see.

No, I'll take it home with me.

Hurry, by tomorrow it'll be too late!

Go pack it up!

Should I cut some lemons for the appetizers?

[Danger] Thanks.

[doorbell rings]

-Are we expecting anyone? -[Danger] I'm not.

Is it Nina?

Okay.

Everything's ready for lunch!

-Here's some dip to go with it. -[Esteban] Hello!

[tense music playing]

The house looks amazing!

What are you doing here?

He came to say hi.

That's right. I came to catch up for all the time I lost.

If you want to see Maya you have every right,

but please, not in my house.

She invited me to lunch. I thought it'd be a great chance

for us to have a conversation, about Maya, of course.

We can do it in private, and I'll go.

Two minutes.

We can talk out back.

-You're my guest. I want you to stay. -It's okay. Don't worry.

I brought you some wine for you.

It won't pair well with your appetizer. I'll leave it for you to have later.

Come on, we only have a minute.

Hey, did you change the living room?

Please, don't come back here.

I didn't want to. Maya insisted.

I know why you're here, and it's not because of Maya.

I'm asking you to stop badmouthing Danger in front of Maya.

So let me make something clear to you.

My life doesn't revolve around your little boy toy.

Prison changed me, Bárbara.

I no longer feel hatred or resentment.

That's why I'm here talking in a decent, responsible, respectful manner.

That's the least our daughter deserves.

-Don't you? -I agree, but this is isn't the time.

Please, I'm asking you to get out of my house.

Fine. I didn't want to make anyone feel uncomfortable or bother anyone.

I'm at peace with myself and with the universe.

-It's best if I leave now, honey. -You kicked him out?

If my dad can't be in my own house, I'm leaving too.

-Calm down! -Maya…

If you want, let's eat, and I'll take you wherever you want.

-You're not my father! -[Bárbara] Maya!

-No fucking way. Always the same shit! -Watch your mouth.

I don't want you talking to him like that.

You can take her with you.

Okay.

[music fades]

We shouldn't be here, Bárbara.

Honey, I'm convinced that Guarahí is gonna be a hit. I swear.

My work as Medusa's CEO is starting to pay off.

Soon the numbers will improve. I won't need to be there so much.

I've gotta go.

-You're not gonna eat? -No.

I just remembered I've got work to do.

-I'll eat later! -Danger!

Danger!

Our first encounter was a success.

I'm confident that it shook them up.

He stayed cool. He didn't blow up, as you know now,

Mr. Dumbass is acting like he's the fucking Duke of Barranquilla.

But that asshole is just a thug!

Well, it's time now to call in favors, my darling.

My family and I did our part.

Now it's your turn.

Yes, of course. I'll have news for you when we meet.

We can talk about it tomorrow.

Okay.

[suspenseful music playing]

[music fades]

Thanks for waiting.

Sorry, I already started. Where have you been?

I was on a call.

-Any good? -No way!

-You already have some! -I'm just taking a couple, Jesus.

[Maya chuckles]

Mmm, they're so good!

-Mm! -Yeah.

I'm sorry.

What for?

For being so unfair with you when they put you away.

It was my mistake.

I put you in a really difficult position.

But I was too hard on you. I was really mad.

Especially 'cause you let that bitch Tatiana wrap you around her finger.

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Maya! Don't speak ill of the dead.

It's no good to have hatred in our heart, honey.

I've already moved on. Done.

What matters is what you and me will do from now on.

Okay?

My baby girl!

[Cortizo] The results from the hair fiber.

[Danger] No, that's impossible!

This is wrong. It can't be.

[tense music peaks and fades]

It says that the hair you found belongs to Gabriel Chafir.

How did Chafir's hair get on the doll that was thrown onto my car?

What if the bastard isn't dead?

Remember that guy hanged himself in his cell?

Or was he hanged?

The thing is I've never seen his body after the fact.

-Did you see his body? -No, I didn't.

-Hold on! -I didn't see it.

Hey, wait, man!

[Giraldo] The answer's no.

Gabriel Chafir is dead and buried. That's all.

But what about the hair on the doll?

It was there!

Why do you like screwing up my life?

The past is the past, okay? It's over.

We need to make sure we're certain that the body is Gabriel Chafir's.

All you have to do is give us two medical examiners.

I'll be happy to take a picture for the record,

and Porras is good with a shovel.

What are you talking about? Do I look like a gravedigger?

No, man, I studied forensic photography, and now I'm a hacker.

I see, so you're lazy now, that it? Huh?

Listen to me, Coronel.

We need to dig him up, to completely rule out that possibility.

Help us.

[suspenseful music playing]

[suspenseful music continues]

[Bárbara] "If they kill me here, it'll be the demon Hidalgo"?

[Spanish song playing]

[song fades]

[birds chirping]

[Bárbara] It was hanging, just like Gabriel.

Danger doesn't know about this either?

If I tell him, he'll force me to resign. He's very tense lately.

I would tell him if I were you.

Hiding things is like lying, Bárbara.

What's up with you? Is there something else?

Is Guaraí safe for pregnant women?

[tense sting]

And why might you be asking me this?

Before we create the label, we need to know.

In my community, we've had no problems.

Most women use it to produce a stronger connection with their baby,

to relieve symptoms, but no, it should be safe.

[cell phone chimes]

But we need to do more testing.

DANGER: I DON'T WANT TO ARGUE WITH YOU, MY GODDESS

Okay.

Bárbara, please, listen. Rethink your decision, please.

Sometimes the cure is worse than the disease.

-All right. -Elu.

Mm-hmm?

Thank you.

We'll talk soon, okay?

[melancholic music playing]

[music turns sinister]

RESIGN

[music fades]

Hello, Jackie, what are you doing here?

Well, honey, I wanted to talk to you because I've been reflecting on this,

how should I say, new era you want to set for Medusa.

And I agree.

Although it has a negative impact on me, I have to say I understand. Yeah.

That's a surprise.

A pretty significant change.

Sweetheart, I did want to ask, please don't always be so harsh on me.

I've always supported you since you were a kid.

Yeah. It was very clear during the meeting with your vote.

Nothing to do with the vote. No, no. I'm sad about what happened with Cristian.

I see, but with thoughts and prayers, we won't be saving Medusa.

I know, sweetheart, but listen, I'm here for you. Right?

-And for Jacobo, right? -No.

It upsets me, but, uh, I accept that too.

I mean, Jacobo has never done anything on the board of directors.

I accept my responsibility because I let him do whatever he wanted.

It got out of hand, and now I'm facing the consequences.

-It's fine. -Thanks for your change of heart.

Camilo is getting out of prison.

Excuse me? But the charges against him were very serious.

Yes, but your father is getting him out on some sort of technicality,

lack of evidence, I'm not sure. You know what they're like.

Right. He needs him more than ever.

And they're planning something against you, so be careful.

-Stay alert. -Are you certain?

Not certain.

But I just wanted to tell you that I'm not involved.

Wait, are you planning to get back with Camilo?

Bárbara, you know as well as I

that we're not all strong and independent women like you.

Some of us do what we can with what we have.

Hm?

Well, then prove it to me.

[news music]

[newsreader] Good morning. Today's headlines.

The Energy Minister speaks out about high costs for users…

Where have you been?

Just exercising.

[moaning]

[newsreader] In other news,

there's a new development in the Hidalgo case.

Today, Camilo Hidalgo could be released from jail,

perhaps in the next few hours.

The DA's office confirmed the statements of new witnesses

in the case against Mister Hidalgo, which also seem to confirm

that the accusations made against him were paid for.

[Newsreader] The defense attorney highlighted Camilo Hidalgo's charity work

and all the support he has given to homeless young people

during the past ten years.

We'll continue with more on this…

Here comes your farewell gift.

…after the commercial break.

Stay with us.

[suspenseful music playing]

That's right, Cristian, Dad got Camilo out.

Jackie's checking out their planning. They're up to something.

Who, Jackie?

Jackie hates the sight of you.

But the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

We can't underestimate them.

Whatever they're planning, we'll have to face them in court.

Don't you worry, the only person they underestimate in this family is me.

Do me a favor and get changed.

Get ready. We'll talk to the attorneys. We have to set a new strategy.

I really don't care at this point. Fuck that. I'm over it.

You should care, unless you want to see Dad coming back to the company.

-We can't allow that. -Okay. You do it then. You!

-Oh? -It's your fight.

It's all on you.

My fight? I thought this was our fight.

I've supported your new policies, your new ideas, your changes too.

What more do you want? You're the one who wanted to be president, right?

-Here you go, the power is yours. -Why are you so upset?

At the end of the day, you got what you wanted.

Excuse me, what?

You're really gonna deny?

-You were relieved I replaced you. -Oh, wow!

You've really lost your mind now, haven't you? It's official.

You've been so scared since the attack. Look at you!

You're terrified of facing Dad in court.

I'll do it, because you're a coward.

[dramatic music playing]

The key witness in the case, Diego Salgar,

gave us the following statement.

Let's share the recording.

Listen, uh, I've been living abroad for a while.

I don't want anything to do with the Hidalgos.

I won't make any statement on the Camilo Hidalgo case.

How did you get that guy Diego to talk?

We didn't have to.

[newsreader] This confirms that Mr. Hidalgo…

-It's not his voice. -Yes, it is.

Didn't you hear it?

[newsreader] …always has done within the given parameters.

The witness's statement…

[Úrsula] What are you saying?

Humans are becoming less and less necessary.

[newsreader] Mr. Salgar has no interest or connection whatsoever with the family.

[Diego] I don't want anything to do with the Hidalgos.

I won't make any statement on the Camilo Hidalgo case.

[cell phone ringing]

Hi, Mom.

[Esperanza] Hello, Cristian.

-I thought you'd made up with your sister? -She ran straight over to you, huh?

She told me because I asked her… [clicks tongue]

…if you were heading to the hearing.

Honey, please, listen to me.

-We agreed to support each other. -I'm not responsible for Bárbara.

Listen, the problem is between her and Dad.

She should fix it herself, right?

No, it's my problem as well.

So that's why I need my children united to face it together.

Wow, I came to the beach to try to relax. Now I have to deal with the company?

I'm dealing with the family. There's a hitman who's coming after me.

Now you're asking me to stress over Bárbara?

Ma, please, no, let her sort that mess.

We'll talk soon. I love you.

-Love you too. -Okay. Bye.

Miss you.

Shit!

[Spanish melancholic song playing]

[song fades]

Could you go… Could you go a bit faster?

Just a tiny bit, thanks.

They're not biting you?

Oh, wow.

[soft, suspenseful music playing]

[grunts]

[exhales]

Sorry, I'm a bit late.

I can't even blame the traffic!

This place is incredible!

We can feel all the power of nature.

It's gorgeous.

Well, first of all, thank you so much for allowing me to visit.

I came here simply to state that the scales aren't balanced right now

in your favor.

You're good people. You're committed, and deserve to work with decent partners.

So believe me,

the proposal I'm bringing you today is way better than Bárbara Hidalgo's.

[dramatic sting]

How are you?

So you're gonna go? Together?

Stop there.

All good. It's okay.

-Yeah? -[Cristian] Yeah, please.

-You sure? -[Cristian] Of course!

-Can I sit? Everything's taken. -But of course. Take a seat.

-It's all yours. -Thanks.

Is it always like this?

-It's not all the time. -Yeah?

I'm Dalila Morón.

Pleased to meet you. I'm Cristian.

-Hidalgo. -Ah, nice to meet you.

-You're from Spain? -Yeah. Yep.

From Madrid? That's right. Exactly.

In Australia, there are waves three times that size.

Is that right? Yep.

-Did you live there? -Yes. I did. I lived there.

I also lived in some parts of Europe, but now I'm here.

I wanted to try the Latin flavor.

[both chuckle]

-You're in the right place. -Yeah.

No wonder you didn't recognize me,

or my name.

Why, are you famous around here?

No, no. I'd love to be an actor, a singer, something like that.

No, wait. Please, you have to tell me. Don't leave me hanging.

No, my family owns a company that's very well-known around here.

-Hm-hmm. -Well, around the world.

Now it's in the eye of the storm, so every time I say my last name,

people get a bit nervous.

Yeah.

Yeah, well, it's very interesting, but I have to leave. Excuse me.

It was nice to meet you. Thanks for sharing your table with me.

In Colombia, it's rude to leave in the middle of a story.

I'm just getting started. There's more to it.

[chuckles] Right, all good, don't worry. Here.

Perfect. Now we're connected.

Ah, and like they say here in Colombia…

I've got my eye on you, Cristian Hidalgo.

[guitar music plays]

Okay then.

Due to the state of decomposition of the body,

we had to run a fingerprint test.

Then we did a genetic and tomographic comparison

to determine if the remains are Gabriel Chafir's.

And?

Yes, they're Gabriel Chafir's.

Okay.

Now we know the man's dead and buried.

I don't know where to go now. We're back to square one.

Keep investigating the Gamboa case.

How about yourself?

I'm just gonna keep at it until we find Brito.

Let's get to it.

-Thanks, Cortizo. -Of course.

We absolutely refuse to come to an agreement.

We're at war. This is why you're hired.

Cepeda, I don't want any stone unturned. You've worked for my father before.

-You know him well and can use that. -This is Troy, Bárbara. We're well aware.

I know my father.

If he can't lead the Medusa he built himself, he's gonna destroy it.

Listen, from here on out.

I want everyone to see us as the united family that we really are.

[Úrsula] We are?

We are. We were. I don't give a fuck.

You can hate each other. I don't care.

We need to stop the sentimental garbage!

It's business from now on!

Don't be so cold, Damián.

Love is still alive for some people in this family.

Here's to the love we all share.

-Cheers. -[Úrsula] Cheers.

[Damián] Great.

I want to propose that we renew this alliance.

We're going to get Medusa back.

But let me be clear.

If one of you betrays me,

you're done.

[dramatic sting]

Cheers.

-[Úrsula] Cheers. -Cheers.

[Jaqueline] Cheers.

[music ends]

[Danger] Oh, shit!

How did I do?

-What do I call you now? "Anonymous"? -[chuckles]

Hey, I know Python now, which is like the bible for hackers.

Talk to me in English, enough with the bullshit, okay?

The Gamboa case is pretty heavy.

The man evidently associated himself with the most generous people.

There are people involved here from the Colombian jet set, bro,

politicians, big athletes, famous people.

I mean, these are people you'd least expect.

[upbeat music playing in the bar]

Get on with it. I don't have much time.

I don't give a fuck how you're doing either.

That's good.

-I didn't ask in the first place, did I? -Fine.

So what is it?

Let's work together.

You want to team up?

There's so much love between you and me.

Friendship and business, Jacobo, don't usually go hand in hand.

-Did jail teach you that? -Oh, hi, honey!

How are you?

What are you doing here?

If I told you, you wouldn't be here.

I want to screw over Bárbara.

[dramatic sting]

[Esteban] The three of us can take Eternals down.

Why I'd be an ally of the person who screwed us over?

Sweetie, you're much smarter than that.

Listen, my proposal could be very beneficial for all of us.

I have the financial backing to support this plan.

So you stole more from our family than we thought? Impressive!

The Lemaitres were responsible for getting me out.

They paid off almost all my debt with Medusa.

And they're putting up the money.

They're also pissed at Bárbara.

-Your money isn't really what we want. -Yeah, seriously.

Sweetie, it's one thing coming from money, it's another thing having it.

And you two haven't made any money yet. But the Lemaitres do have money.

These people have powerful connections.

Experience as well.

Because let's be honest now,

you two are just a couple of little shits here in Barranquilla.

Besides, I already have the contacts in Asia

for us to compete with Medusa.

The product is already sold.

But the most important thing, I've secured the key player,

someone who'll let us extract the same mushrooms

that Bárbara is selling.

So you told him my idea then?

He's many things, but he's not a gossip.

You know what though?

They say animals that wanna survive should always move as one.

[suspenseful music playing]

[music fades]

Ruiz, how are things out there?

-Hello, my love. -[chuckles]

Oh, that food you made was so good.

Seriously, I really enjoyed it.

I also made it for me. It wasn't just for you, my love.

Yeah, that's what I was trying to say.

Could you switch off now?

No, we have a new security setup, and everyone's messaging me.

But it's all good, honey. Leave it to me. Not even a cold will get in here.

[both moan happily]

Listen, I know that the last few days have been rough for us,

but it's all gonna be fine, okay?

Yeah.

I don't want… I don't want any more secrets between you and me.

-So I need to tell you… -[cell phone rings]

Oh, wait a second.

Porras is calling.

Uh-uh. Talk to me.

Brother, I need you to come to the station right away.

I found something important about the case, but don't tell Bárbara.

[tense music playing]

[Danger] No, don't worry about it.

No, no.

Yeah, I'm on my way.

Okay, see you soon.

[Bárbara] What, now?

Something came up at work.

-You know how it is. -What did you want to tell me?

Oh, uh… Nothing, it wasn't very important.

-I'll tell you later. Don't worry. -Come on.

-Tell me. -No, I really have to leave.

-We'll talk later. -Okay.

-I won't go to bed until you get back. -All right!

[Porras] Bro, what I'm about to show you and tell you it's kind of delicate.

I don't know how you're gonna take it.

And, well, you could get upset.

Uh…

But…

What's with all this bullshit? Talk to me straight. What's up?

Arnoldo Gamboa and Bárbara,

they were lovers before the attack on the yacht.

[guitar music playing]

Where'd you get this shit?

Well, the intelligence agency had been following Gamboa for a while,

but after he got killed, they just archived the files.

And I used a program to get into the matrix,

and it's all there.

The call logs are there

and all the chat transcripts.

Where they met, the time, everything.

[exhales]

Just what I needed in my life, fucking hell.

Around that time is when Bárbara was her father Damián's right-hand,

so she must have seduced him,

so he'd sign all the contracts Medusa needed to get.

That's right.

Listen, brother, anyway, don't tell anything to Bárbara

until we're sure that she had nothing to do

with this Arácnida mess or anything with Medusa.

[music turns tense]

Not a word to anyone, okay?

No, of course.

[reporter] Today is the start of the trial of the century. The tension is palpable.

Hidalgo vs. Hidalgo. The key figures in this trial are now arriving.

-[reporter] Could you give us a statement? -[reporter 2] A formal statement for NTB?

Will there be any kind of settlement with your family? Bárbara, please!

-Bárbara, can you please tell us… -[reporter] Just a few questions, please.

-Bárbara, here! -[Danger] Give her some space.

Thank you for coming.

[Danger] Let's give them some space!

-[reporter 2] Bárbara, ma'am! -[reporter 3] Please a statement.

Can I get a hand? Help me out.

-[reporter] A statement for NTB? -No, not now.

[reporter 2] Over here!

What's the settlement between you and your children?

A statement, please! Damián, sir!

[tense music playing]

COURTROOM

[judge] Mr. Hidalgo.

That way, please.

[cell phone vibrates]

UNKNOWN NUMBER FROM HERE. ONE SHOT.

[camera shutter clicking]

[tense music continues to play]

We're here today for the case of Mr. Damián Hidalgo

against Bárbara Hidalgo, representative of the Medusa conglomerate.

[tense music intensifies]

[judge] Okay, let's get started.

[tense music peaks and fades]

[melancholic Spanish song playing]

[song fades]
