"I hereby declare my wish that Zoé Robles

will guarantee the continuity of the purposes and ideals

of Robles and Associates

in every project, partnership, and venture

that this corporation undertakes from this year forward."

Well, enough with the show already,

or are you going to read the whole thing?

Sorry, don't take it so personally,

but this seems a little excessive to us.

All right,

-but not to my dad. -Okay.

He trusted me to protect his legacy.

I mean, as you can imagine,

Lithiotech is one of the projects I have to oversee.

Do you want me to tell Juan or do you want to tell him yourself?

I have to check that first with my lawyers.

-Whenever you want, of course. -Good.

Then this meeting is adjourned.

When is the next meeting?

Tomorrow. We will discuss the mine issue.

If that was your father's legacy,

I'm with you all the way, Zoé.

Thank you.

I got you, I got you.

All right, I want to close that damn case.

Come on, then, hand it over.

COLLISION

EVIDENCE, SEARCH NO. 2 MR. GENARO SÁNCHEZ

I already put that back where it was.

COCKPIT PANEL

It just doesn't add up that Sánchez had this at his house.

Besides, only an idiot would keep it after the crime.

Yes, totally.

This smells like planted evidence.

But who?

Why?

This is evidence found in a police raid.

A raid that neither of us attended.

What a coincidence.

Very convenient, especially for Chief Hernández.

Excuse me?

Hernández is an upright man.

Really?

Has he always been that way with you?

What's wrong with you, Camacho?

-Nothing, boss. -Don't mix things up.

Hernández has an impeccable career, and that deserves respect.

Put all this away and put it back where it belongs.

Yes, boss. Sorry.

You're not pulling my leg, are you?

-Of course not. -Okay.

It's evidence from the police raid.

We have it. It was on his home computer.

Okay, you know I can't do anything from inside Robles and Associates.

-I have to do it from outside. -Well, do it wherever you want, man.

-But do it, do it. -Okay.

I got you. I got you, jerk.

I got you, jerk. I got you.

Let me go, damn it. It's Sánchez, not me.

-Let me go, damn it. -Hey, hey, hey, what happened?

-Calm down. -He lunged at Sánchez.

I didn't lunge at anyone, just to be clear.

Calm down, I'll take care of it.

Officer, you know full well this idiot lied about my father

over and over, you know it.

-Sánchez owes me an answer. -Don't make things worse, González.

-Calm down. -Hey, give us some space, Camacho.

Come on.

Sit there.

If you calm down, I'll take off your handcuffs.

Okay?

Okay.

-Do you want water? -No, no, no.

What I want is to talk to that damn guy,

and make him confess who killed my father. That's what I want.

And you think you'll get that by showing up like a madman, shouting

outside the prosecutor's office, with a criminal record to boot.

I have to arrest you, you know that.

Is that for real, officer?

Why don't you start investigating instead

and tell me who killed my dad?

Calm down, damn it, or do you want to spend the night in a holding cell?

Look, Ikal.

I know you were treated unfairly.

I just want to know who killed my father.

-Was it him? -I don't know.

So it was those damn pigs. Genaro has to tell us who they were.

Why don't you go and ask that jerk?

-That idiot knows! -Look me in the eyes.

I'm looking for the same thing as you,

justice for your dad,

for your family and for you.

I promise you I'll do everything I can to find out who killed your father.

But give me time.

You have my word.

Yes?

You're staying here to give a statement, okay?

-Are you serious, officer? -Well, it's just that...

You are serious, aren't you?

PRISON SECURITY

It's not as pretty as your house!

SHUT YOUR MOUTH

SHUT YOUR MOUTH OR YOU'LL END UP LIKE THIS GUY

I'll take care of you, I'll take care of you.

-Did you call the police? -No, no sir, not at all,

-I'm not crazy. -Don't look at me.

All the money is here. I don't know if...

if you want to count it.

You are a very intelligent woman,

You won't risk your daughters' lives or your own

for a little money.

-Or are you? -No.

Who are you, and what kind of business are you doing with my husband?

Believe me,

it's not in your best interest to ask.

The less you know, the better off you are.

Excuse me.

HEART RATE

INCOMING CALL: AITA

Hey, sis.

Hey, what are you doing?

Look.

No way, this is so cool.

Hey, you made it with the...

Those are the ones your great-uncle gave you, right?

Made to fit Zoé perfectly.

Take it to her, please.

No, it's... no. It's...

-No. -It's for her to wear on TV.

And everyone can see the beautiful things we have in Sonora.

Look, the gesture is really sweet

and I don't doubt that Zoé is going to like it.

In fact, she's going to love it, but...

I mean, just so you understand,

she and I aren't in a good place right now

for me to be the one to give it to her.

How silly!

You can see it in her eyes. She's in love with you.

Paloma.

You know I read things, right?

Yes, I also know that you make shirts.

Love is for the brave.

But don't worry, okay?

I'll figure out how to do it.

And I will give it to her.

-You're silly. -So this is how we are now?

Yes.

Silly, silly, silly, silly.

We have a meeting at nine, so, we have to...

Thank you, Ramón.

Good morning.

Hello.

You look really good.

I mean, a little more serious, but...

but it suits you. It really does.

I feel like an impostor, really.

No, not at all. Look, your dad knew exactly who you are

and that's why he included you in those documents.

I guess the news is already out.

Well, it's everywhere, so it was hard not to hear about it.

I can't believe I spent all that time

trying to get into the board of directors

and now that I finally made it, I...

I'm panicking.

Well, everything is a little nerve-racking at first,

but, well, you just need some time to adjust. That's all.

I don't think so.

It's...

It's different. It is.

I'm a documentary filmmaker, I mean.

What am I doing here?

The truth is, if I make a bad decision,

it's going to affect a lot of people, you know? I mean...

No, no, no, Zoé. Do what you do best,

go after the truth.

And believe me, if you do that, you won't hurt anyone.

I also want to find the truth,

for my dad.

I've owed him that for a long time.

This is where we made that pact, right?

Yes.

Yes. Go after the truth.

No matter the consequences, remember?

No matter the consequences.

Everything's going to be fine. Come on.

Are you okay?

Yes, yes, it's just...

a lousy antacid.

With Zoé joining the board today,

and Belén in the plan going forward,

this is going to be our Waterloo.

Zoé should've joined the board sooner.

Rules are rules.

And you love them, right?

I'm the only one who cares about this company's rules.

It seems to me that you hide behind the rules,

because you're afraid to fight.

-Son, are you okay? -Yes, yes.

-I know I was hard on you. -Yes. On me. Only me.

With everyone else you're lukewarm. You're always proper.

That's why we're going to do terribly at the board meeting.

Because even that moron Juan steps all over you.

But don't worry, Dad. I'll take care of it.

Sir.

Are you okay?

I need something for my anxiety.

-Like what? -I don't know.

I don't know. Call a pharmacy.

Wouldn't you prefer that we call a doctor?

No, no, it's okay. Thanks, forget it.

Excuse me.

Lourdes?

-Yes? -What's wrong? Isn't he feeling well?

Yes, I asked him if I should call a doctor, but he refused.

What happened to him?

-Anxiety. -Anxiety?

He's just like his dad, with the same heart problems.

What a shame.

-Thank you, Lourdes. -Excuse me.

Go ahead.

The truth is, I don't want to argue with you about mining.

I want us to debate it on the channel. That's what it's for.

Well, since that's what you do best,

which is hosting a live program with the Coyotes.

No. No, I mean having specialists,

and listening to people.

Doesn't that just seem like common sense?

The power of the fifth estate. Bravo, Zoé.

What is he doing here? This is a shareholders' meeting.

Look, I called him because Zoé is against the mining company.

-I'm not. -I need the director of Lithiotech

to be here, and don't interrupt me.

I'm not against mining.

I just want this to be fair, it's what my dad would've wanted.

For me, this is nonsense, everything that needs to be discussed

will be discussed here and not on the channel.

Finally, we agree on something. For God's sake.

Let her do it.

Excuse me?

Did you invite me to the meeting to give my opinion

as the president of Lithiotech?

Let her do the program.

But only if I'm there.

Excuse me.

Romero, what do you have for me?

A bombshell. Should I send it to you?

Yes.

You can only watch it once, okay?

Wait, his face looks familiar, but I can't place him.

I took the time to check it out.

He's a high-ranking police officer.

Should I keep digging up dirt on Juan, or stop here?

Because this could get serious, okay?

We don't know what's going on between these two.

Let's keep going, let's get to the bottom of this.

Thank you.

-Can I? -Hey, how are you?

Very well.

It went really well.

Really?

Finally, I'm going to fight using what I do best.

With words.

I'm going to do a Focal Point special and I'm going to invite Juan.

-And will he accept? -Yes.

It's really strange, but it was practically his idea.

I don't know. Everything went perfectly, really.

I HAVE SOMEONE WHO KNOWS JUAN BLANCO WELL.

I'LL KEEP YOU UPDATED.

Mati, I'm talking to you.

-What happened? -Nothing.

Is it about yesterday?

No, no, no, let's just not bring it up again, okay?

Come here.

Let's see.

They censored me,

they took me off the air,

they forced you to follow an editorial line,

they made us fight,

and today we have the chance to speak freely,

and to seek the truth.

To honor why you and I studied journalism,

and I want you to direct the program.

-Me? -Are you in?

-Of course I am. -Really?

Of course.

Hello, am I interrupting?

What are you doing here?

There's my secret weapon.

You'll see.

Calm down, Belén, I have everything under control now.

No, you're playing right into Zoé's hands,

you're helping her gain influence in the company.

First the bylaws, and now she's the star of Focal Point again.

What the hell is this?

It's the other way around, my love, it's the other way around.

Your daughter is going to do that darn program,

whether you like it or not, and if not today,

she'll do it tomorrow and it's better if she faces

someone tougher

than the clowns from the Coyotes

who only tell her what she wants to hear.

Let her face me.

Enjoy seeing me on television.

It's time I made my position clear.

Well, you'd better make sure it goes well.

Lau.

Tell me.

I just wanted to talk to you.

Can you help me compare the price of copper with lithium?

Because we're saying lithium is more expensive,

but I want to verify it.

Yes, exactly, this is it. I'll check it and send you everything.

Okay.

Hello.

Do you have that file you owe me?

Let's see.

Click where it says budget, please.

Can you enlarge it so they can see it better?

Zoé.

-Hi. -Hi.

Um,

-I wanted to ask you about the makeup. -Yes.

Does it have to be formal, like for a gala or a wedding?

Just normal.

Yes. Any other questions?

Well, a lot, actually,

it's very different from what we usually do, but well,

you are the director now.

Yes.

You know what, Barbi? Honestly,

I do believe in you.

And I think you're really good at what you do

and you've been underestimated.

But I think you're going to do really well.

Let me know if you have any other questions besides makeup.

Okay. Thanks.

Where were we?

Yes, I would like you to add a comparative column

because it's not clear.

Miss Zoé, excuse me. Your driver says she knows you.

Hi.

Yes, thanks, Jorge. You can leave.

What are you doing here, Paloma? Are you here to see your brother?

He was just around here.

No.

You.

Is this for me?

Look, I brought you this.

It's for you to use on TV.

But you don't have to wear it if you don't want to, okay?

Let's see.

I'm getting all tangled up.

It's just that I know there's a lot going on,

and I want to help my grandfather.

And to show there are good people and beautiful things in Sonora too.

You are absolutely right. It's beautiful, actually.

-Isn't it? -It's beautiful.

Actually, look.

No, I don't want to talk to my dad. I already know he's traveling.

I need some figures.

Get me the transport volume for the Lithiotech units

and how many have been used so far.

Yes, yes, it's private information.

Otherwise, I would have looked it up on the internet.

Email it to me, please.

Aitana. Tell me the truth, what are you doing here?

What's wrong? Why are you talking to me like that?

Speak.

Nothing, I just came to help Zoé

with some things from my family's company.

And you? Do I need to make an appointment with your secretary

-to see you or what? -Not here.

We said nothing was going to change, but you don't answer my texts,

you don't answer my calls, you don't tell me anything.

I just want to know how you're doing, but you...

Me?

You toss me aside as soon as you don't need me anymore. That's great.

Come on, Aitana. That's not like you.

Go to hell, idiot. What do you know about me?

Matías, they're looking for you.

-Everything okay? -Yes, I'm coming.

But Zoé, are you still against the mining company?

Well, I'm not against the mining company.

Actually, I'm in favor of hearing all sides.

Sorry, but we don't hide information from anyone, Zoé.

Engineer Ramos, can you give us an overview

of the risks of lithium mining?

Basically, so that everyone understands,

it's turning Sonora into even more of a desert.

Lithium extraction requires large amounts of water.

I mean, imagine what that will do to the rivers.

That risk, Zoé, has been fully assessed.

The engineer is just speculating.

In Sonora, the lithium lies beneath mountains of clay.

The investment is extremely costly.

Yes, that's why we're Robles and Associates,

one of the largest companies in Mexico

and we have an alliance with our Spanish partners.

Bárbara, I have a live feed from Sonora.

-Thank you, thank you, Engineer. -Thank you.

We have a live feed from Sonora.

Good afternoon, we are live from the Lithiotech mine.

We are with Dr. Velasco,

head of toxicology at the hospital in Sonora.

Doctor, tell me, what could happen to the health of the residents?

Well, it's not what could happen, but what is happening.

Tests were conducted on the river, and they revealed severe contamination.

Thank you very much, doctor.

Reporting for Zero to Zero News, Victor Mejía, from Sonora.

And that's only the beginning of the extraction process,

imagine what it'll be like afterward.

Look, I don't know who did that analysis,

but we submitted our own analysis and there were no objections.

That information is publicly available, Zoé.

Okay. So what about the children with eye and throat irritation?

-Are we going to ignore them? -Children?

-Yes. -Which children?

-What do you mean, which children? -How many are there?

Come on. Do we know that for sure?

Belén, tell me.

Listen, can they stop keeping Zoé on camera all the time?

For God's sake,

they have the director of Lithiotech sitting right there.

-What happened? -Nothing, nothing.

Nothing's changed. Everything's the same.

Your son agrees with Zoé about everything.

He just doesn't have an ounce of character.

Either he does have one,

or he's tired of being pressured.

Zoé.

Maybe the doctor is the Coyotes' personal doctor.

People's lives are at stake,

I don't know if you understand, but I don't find it funny.

Sorry. Control room, please put up the images.

Those are the positive effects of lithium.

Men working on construction projects,

like roads, hospitals, schools, bridges, buildings.

Lithiotech means jobs and progress.

Matías.

I found some charts that might help.

-I need to talk to Bárbara. -Aitana, what is that?

Zoé, I have a report.

The amount of lithium isn't what they claim. It's much lower.

The number of trucks they have is ridiculously low.

It would never be enough to transport that much lithium.

Only three?

And you, Zoé Robles, can keep siding with the Coyotes

and the people who stand in the way of progress,

condemning thousands of people to poverty forever.

Thank you. Zoé, there's one more report that you contributed to the program.

Yes.

Thank you. Thank you.

Juan, look. First of all,

it's not about whether I'm for or against anyone.

Of course I'm interested in people's progress, okay?

What's important here is

that for the progress Juan Blanco is talking about,

would require an amount of lithium that simply isn't in that mine.

Good!

Good, damn it.

I have evidence. Look at the numbers.

We can clearly see the truck fleet being used is tiny.

If there were as much lithium as you claim,

you would need many more trucks.

So this means we're not looking at a mega-deposit

that will make Mexico rich.

All we'll end up with is sick people.

Look, I think we're focusing on the wealth below ground.

And I understand that, but we're forgetting the wealth

above ground.

People like you at home, and people like us.

And the only thing we're doing is putting these people at risk.

Thank you.

Thank you for watching.

See you next week on Focal Point.

-Cut! -That's a wrap, damn it!

Good, very good. Great job. Great job, everyone.

-Really, congratulations. -Thank you.

Audio.

Very well, thank you very much.

Honey, you were amazing.

Amazing.

Hey.

-That was intense. -Yes.

Yes, yes, yes, but very good.

-They told me Paloma came... -It's okay. Thank you.

She brought you something. A shirt or something.

I told her no, but you know how she is.

Yes. She's stubborn, like you, when she wants to be.

She was actually around here,

watching the program. You can go look for her if you want.

Hey, great job.

And congratulations. You won.

-Thanks. -I'm going to look for her.

-Good. -Thanks.

Damn Zoé Robles.

Weren't you supposed to handle Zoé?

Didn't you have the truck data?

I don't know where those darn trucks are,

and I'm not an expert in mining either.

You put me there to manage the darn money!

-Why don't you go ask that idiot Marc? -And where the hell is he?

How the hell should I know where Marc is?

Isn't he still in your bed or what?

NATIONAL POLICE

Armed robbery at a clothing store.

Unbelievable, damn it.

The forensic team arrived with the evidence.

And it looks like there's more on the hard drive.

What?

-I don't know. -Well, go find out.

I can't, boss. I almost got caught snooping around.

The baby is moving a lot.

She's angry.

Like us.

Look, here he comes. He's up to something.

Boss.

I'll call you back in a minute.

Okay.

I need to talk to you.

Let's go to the office.

I'll be right back.

If you cooperate.

The city really is beautiful.

Yes, very beautiful.

Also, these tall buildings make you feel so small, don't they?

Very.

Yes.

And what do you think?

Well...

In a lot of things, little sister. But mostly I keep thinking,

well, about Dad.

You know what I'd like?

To see where Dad died.

Little sister, I think we shouldn't be here.

But I wanted to see.

Alright.

Here?

Apparently, yes. It was here.

I don't understand

how someone can hurt another person

and leave the children

without their dad.

Believe me, I don't understand it either, little sister.

But I promise I'll do everything I can

to find out what happened, okay?

-Yes. -I promise you.

And most of all, so dad can rest in peace.

I wasn't expecting your call.

Get ready for a bombshell.

What?

We're going to publish a story that implicates them.

You went to work for the competition. Why should I believe you?

I've known you for many years. And believe me, I respect you.

Get ready. Seriously.

-What's wrong? -We have a photo of Genaro Sánchez

with the helicopter mechanic.

What?

Come on, is this for real?

I think so.

It looks like official police evidence,

but it's a copy, I can't be sure.

But come on, where the hell did this come from?

It was an anonymous tip.

They want this to get out.

It could've been an expert or anyone involved in the case.

How much time do I have?

Half an hour.

-We're going to hit them hard. -Thanks.

It was Juan.

Let's see, Matías, give me two minutes because I can't...

Aitana, sorry, I can't. I have things to do.

Hey, what's wrong with you, idiot? Don't talk to me like that, okay?

Are you drunk? What's wrong with you?

Someone higher up pressured you, right?

Who? The prosecutor's office? The president's office?

What the hell did I uncover in the investigation

that got me kicked off the case?

Will you let me speak?

This investigation is still ongoing.

But I'll tell you this much.

We did find a lot of evidence at Sánchez's house.

We got him.

-He's going to trial. -Great, isn't it?

I'm taken off the case,

and suddenly they find all the evidence, just like that?

Stop, Marina.

You know me very well.

What are you insinuating?

I took you off the case myself.

-I want to protect you. -Please. Don't use that line on me.

Look,

I know I've behaved very badly, but

I want to make things right.

-I want to protect you. -Stop talking nonsense

because I didn't come to talk about that.

I can't stop thinking about you.

I see you and...

All I want is...

To feel our son.

"Our son"? My son! Did you forget that you told me

that you didn't want to know anything about him?

Yes, but I was a jerk, an idiot.

But I'm sorry.

I love you. I love you. I miss you so much.

Let me back into your life.

Delicious.

Sublime, incredible.

Belén.

Did we have plans?

-What is this? What's going on? -That's exactly what I'm wondering.

I just found out in the middle of the debate on the mining company

-that you blatantly lied to us. -This is what lies.

I don't want you in my business. I want you out.

Come on, Belén, please calm down.

-Sit down, let's talk. -Why would I sit down?

That's not what the logistics report says.

Even though the number isn't the one initially presented,

the difference isn't significant, Belén, please.

-That's not the point. -Marc, you were wrong.

You underestimated me.

And you lost. It's that simple.

-We have things to settle! -My lawyers will handle that.

Darn it!

Matías, this thing with Aitana is a bombshell.

Andy, we're in trouble.

-Why? -Where is Zoé?

I don't know, she said she was going to celebrate with...

I need you to go get her. Okay, okay. Go get her.

Okay.

Let's see.

Everyone, I need you to get to work. We're going live.

-Matías, we need to talk. -Wait a second.

-Seriously, Aitana, we're... -I don't care. We need to talk.

Let's see, please, where is Zoé?

I don't know where Zoé is. Zoé this, Zoé that.

-I matter too, idiot. -Congratulations, really. You were great.

Now we really deserve some tequilas.

Actually, yes.

Stop bugging me. You have no idea what I'm dealing with.

Don't you realize that I'm in love with you, idiot?

What are you painting, Mom?

A vase.

NEXT TARGET: ZOÉ
