Original subtitles

-Good morning! -It didn't even work!

-It had no effect! -I'm still itching!

I can't take it anymore, I'm desperate!

Look how bad it is!

I lost my job because of you!

Guys, calm down!

Calm down, I'm going to help you!

There she comes.

What do you have to say in your defense?

-We'll fix all the problems. -At least she showed up.

-I'll let you know when. -Okay, guys. I'll keep you updated.

I need a solution for my money problems. I gave you free publicity

thinking it would fix everything, but in reality...

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

BASED ON THE NOVEL "YO, BRUJA" BY ISIDORA CHACÓN

You said your grandmother died when you were a child, right?

-Yes. -I see you as a grandmother instead.

I see the future instead of the past.

Every spell and potion I'm making is coming out wrong.

That's not right.

Let's find an answer in the Book of Shadows.

-That's a good idea. -What's this for?

Is it a drink?

Carmen!

He's my cousin, he's visiting from Spain. Sorry, I forgot to introduce you, guys.

He's from a very remote town, he's staying a few days with me.

Nice to meet you. I'm Carmen.

-Hi. Mi name is-- -Mauricio!

-Mauricio. -Mauricio?

Mauricio.

I need some rum with my breakfast.

He has an alcohol problem. Excuse him.

Mauricio, let's go. I told you, no alcohol in the morning.

I told you to stay in your room.

And not to come out until you cleaned everything, everything is dirty!

I love it when you get like that.

-You're good at being the boss. -Get inside, go!

-Your wings are here. -Hi, Tony.

-Miguel! -How are you buddy?

-Hi! -How are you?

-Are you excited? -Yes.

We brought something for your first challenge.

-Already? -Yeah, let's put this plan on action.

We're blindfolding you.

I won't be able to see anything, though, of the challenge.

In Mr. Hyde...

Cameras are our eyes.

Tomás will record you, and we'll all see you later.

Are you having second thoughts? We can put everything away--

No, no.

I'm ready. Let's do this.

That's the right attitude to make it far in the game.

-Great, right? -That's true.

Come on, Tommy.

Do you really know what the challenge is?

I want this guy to end up so scared that he'll never want to see us again.

Trust me. In the end, he'll beg us to help him get out of the game.

That's what I want to hear.

-That elixir is great, right? -Very powerful.

I told you.

-Are you ready? -Yes.

-Let's go. -Give it your all.

Bye.

So cute.

May the knowledge be revealed.

Can you read it?

No.

I'm sorry, Carmen. I can't.

But if you're not in your right mind, none of your spells will work.

Are you sure you can't read it?

No, Alicia.

All the letters look backwards.

I got it!

What if you use this, Carmen?

Every witch or sorcerer of white, green, red, or golden magic,

could have their powers reversed

due to a powerful black magic curse.

Black magic?

Someone performed black magic against you?

That's what we have to find out.

Kobo, I know you really like being in the future.

I mean, your future, because this is my present.

I mean, your future.

And I know you like T.V., cars, motorcycles, sodas.

But you can't keep living at Alicia's or my expense anymore.

You need to go back, right away.

Did you hear me? I'm talking to you.

I want those clothes.

Your pants are too tight where they shouldn't be.

Kobo, those clothes are for women.

Apparently, women have better taste than men nowadays.

If you want them, you need to buy them.

You see that motorcycle? Do you like it? Then you have to pay for it.

You see that huge house? If you want to live in it, you need to buy it.

And how will you buy it? With money that neither of us have,

and even if I had it, I wouldn't give it to you. It's money we don't have.

I'll get it anyway, Johnny.

Right now the store had too many clients.

But I'll get in tonight through the balcony and steal them.

Besides, the amulet you gave me protects me.

You... can't... do that here.

Besides, the amulet won't work for that.

I mean, it's powerful, but not against the police.

Kobo, take that chip out of your head, you can't be a pirate in 2020.

If you want to continue stealing,

you need to go back. Which is the best option anyway.

Stealing, but in the past. Not here.

I'm not going back.

And I don't know what that "chip" thing is, but I'm not giving it to you.

Fine.

If you don't want to go back, stay.

But do it on your own. I won't work for you nor give you money.

Get your own job.

Find me one then.

What did I do?

I'm totally ready.

Pass that egg all over my body.

Concentrate. If there's black magic

the egg will recover all that bad energy.

Remember our last class.

All spells have a cost because energies are unique pieces,

and everything in the universe has it's own place.

I'm ready.

-Done. -Good.

Okay. Now break the egg in the water.

We'll know the truth depending on what comes out.

Carmen, what's that?

Alicia, someone put a dangerous curse on me!

The first lesson in magic should be to be brave when dealing with black magic.

-That's right. -So...

-Are you cleansed now? -No.

We need to figure out what's the curse they placed on me.

You're going to have to trust me now.

Go up the step. There. One more.

-It feels great! -It's amazing, right?

The first challenge is always simple.

-What do I do? -Keep moving forward.

-Straight ahead? -Yes.

You'll get lots of likes.

-Yes, many likes. -Recognition.

-Yes. -Are you glad you joined Mr. Hyde?

This challenge is pretty simple.

Of course, we'd never give you a dangerous challenge.

Have you figured out where you are?

Of course not, you idiot, I can't see a thing.

Nothing.

We're looking at it the wrong way.

If you're upside down, and the stars are shining down,

that means you don't look down. You look...

-Do I keep going straight? -Yes, keep at it.

Tomás?

Hey, Tomás. Tomás! Don't do that!

-Don't be such a coward. -Do I keep going?

Yes.

-Are you sure? -Very much so. Trust me.

-We're almost at the end. -Of what?

There's a surprise at the end. You'll love it.

-Are you sure? -Yes.

Are you ready?

It's only ten more steps and the challenge is over.

Ten steps? Tomás, stop fucking with me, this isn't the challenge anymore!

...two, three, four, five.

Six... seven. You're doing great.

Eight, nine. At the last step, take off your blindfold and look at the camera.

-What? Now? -Go.

Yes. Go ahead.

And that's how you trick someone.

For now let's concentrate on the important thing.

Let's find the sorcerer that did this.

Carmen, what if we don't? I have an even better idea. Look.

If everything you do is reversed,

when someone comes for something to sleep, give them something to wake up.

If they want something to forget, give them something to remember.

Ali, if you're afraid, don't worry.

-You don't need to help me. -But it's black magic.

Exactly.

So, start practicing everything you learned.

-I wanted to dye my hair red. -That idiot's coming.

Where were you? Why didn't you go to class?

We were doing some research. What are you doing with her?

We have a project together for class.

Be careful. She's dangerous.

Me, dangerous? You're the one sending people to the hospital.

-Don't mess with me. -Or what?

Are you going to try to kill me too?

If you're not guilty, you have nothing to fear.

May I remind you that you've been banned from doing magic in the university?

-I'll see you later. -Okay.

Be careful. We mean it, she's dangerous.

Dangerous? How so? I don't get it.

Besides, if you two went to class, I wouldn't be paired with her.

What are you involved in now? You haven't told me.

It's best if you don't know.

Yes? Yes, honey?

Now?

What the fuck is your problem? You could've killed me!

We knew you were a coward. Sorry, you're out of Mr. Hyde.

He peed himself!

Who's the coward now!

Tell me! Who's the coward now?

You hit like a girl!

Part of the material used to build this wall

was the blood of slaves that died under the terrible heat,

working in inhumane conditions, something terrible for that time.

These walls, part of the one you see here

covers part of the naval museum, as it is...

All done. You start tonight.

Tonight?

Tonight. It's only six hours, and it's the best shift.

No heat, with tourists in love that just want to kiss under the moon.

Which means there's good tips. It'll be good for you.

We talked about easy money and you want to put me in there for six hours?

Well, you have to start somewhere.

You could have your own carriage in a few years.

Johnny, did you forget who I am?

I'm Kobo, the most dreaded pirate of my time.

I won't be anyone's driver.

These walls were built after the attack by Sir Francis Drake,

a British pirate that besieged the city for six straight weeks.

He asked for an immense ransom,

a ransom of 107 thousand ducats,

-an amount that was-- -He wanted 150 thousand, but he got 107.

Excuse me?

Why are you following this guy? He's a liar.

-What's your problem, buddy? I'm working. -I'm sorry, sorry.

He's a tourist guide, he charges foreigners to tell them stories.

-I'm sorry. Let's go. -He charges money to lie to them?

I told you not to call me a liar, I'm working.

They didn't use slave blood to build this wall.

They used mortar, sand, and water.

I lived with Drake.

And anyone could invade a city with 1200 men and 70 caravels.

Right? Give me a fleet that size and I'll be king of the world.

You said you lived with--?

Don't listen to him,

-he obviously didn't live with Drake. -Yes, I did.

He had a relative that lived with Drake.

-Let's go. -One of my relatives lived with Drake.

But if someone knows about pirates, that's me.

Since you know so much, what did pirates do to their enemies?

Where did they throw them?

-They didn't throw them anywhere. -What did they do, then?

Pirates preferred to leave their enemies in deserted islands, so they'd suffer.

Do you want to hear real pirate stories?

-Stories unheard of? -Yes!

These are my tourists, they're not going anywhere.

Besides, I have my license, I can tell the official history.

But I have the official version from the pirates.

And I assure you, it's much more interesting. Right?

-Kobo-- -Follow me.

They can't follow you, they haven't paid me yet!

Hey, brother, don't.

-That dude is crazy. -But I--

-Here's some change for a soda. -This isn't enough, he took my clients!

Sorry, I can't do anything about it.

No one was able to conquer it because he knew the city perfectly well.

What do you think?

It's amazing, but I didn't know you liked bikes.

It's not for me.

-It's for you. -For me?

It's a gift.

You always said you wanted one of these. Right?

Yes, I mean. Yes, I love it.

-Yes? -I love it. And I love the color, but...

But...

Can we really afford something like this right now?

-You didn't get a loan for this, right? -No, of course not.

Honey. León.

I got promoted.

-What? -Yes.

-You got a promotion? -Yes.

Honey, congratulations!

I'm so proud of you, I know how hard you worked for this.

This bullet was going straight towards Kobo's head.

But he deflected it with his sword towards this wall.

Careful.

He was ambushed by fifty of the king's men.

Against Kobo and five of his men.

But do you know who escaped with all of the loot?

Who else, ma'am? Kobo.

What happened to the treasure?

They hid it in a nearby house.

But the owner of the house was a snitch.

Kobo and his men had to spend a few months in the open sea.

That's the story of the great pirate Kobo and his life in Cartagena.

Way to go.

You deserve it.

-Thank you. -Thanks.

You see? You can start making money again.

I didn't think they'd pay me, so I took the money from them already.

Kobo, what did you do? Put that away!

I told you, you can't steal from people!

Don't worry, Johnny, I made sure there were no cops.

You're never going to change, are you?

I hope this medicine man can help us.

"Nabatare Site Obanni."

What does it mean, Carmen?

Welcome, from the heart.

For a place that does black magic, they're very polite.

No, Carmen. I think it's a trap. It's a trap.

Are you sure you want to go in with me?

It's closed. It's closed!

We're locked here! This place is dangerous.

Good afternoon. It's just a security measure, don't worry.

How can I help you?

I'm here for a tattoo.

Look, I'm going to be honest with you.

I did everything in my power so you'd leave.

But I guess I have to get used to you being here.

What are you trying to say, Johnny?

Do you want to make some money? I have a business proposal. 50-50.

35-70.

Okay.

But that adds to more than 100. You don't even know my proposition.

Johnny, pirates always get the best part.

50-50, or I'll tell the witch you're still here.

She'll put a spell on you and return you to your time.

Who do we have to rob?

To be honest, no one.

I propose something first,

to put our partnership to the test.

Let's practice our tolerance.

I don't understand you when you talk like that.

It's simple.

I'll tell you something that maybe you won't like.

But you can't get mad. Got it?

As you can tell, I have no tolerance for traitors.

-Let me explain, just once, please. -Explain what?

That I--

Stealing is stealing. Now and four hundred years ago.

But 400 years ago we didn't have such an established friendship.

I mean, at least I told you the truth.

If I hadn't stolen that map, you'd never find the treasure now.

You're right about that.

That information just saved your life.

But our partnership is over.

Okay.

How are you going to find the treasure then?

You'll need someone that knows the codes nowadays.

Someone who can move around without raising suspicions.

Are you going to trust a stranger?

Or someone you know?

-You stabbed me in the back! -That was before, brother!

You have to admit it. One way or another, we're good for each other.

Bravery. Smarts.

Don't get any closer.

We're like ying and yang.

Who's that?

Better the devil you know than the devil you don't, right?

Can we start over?

Can we continue our partnership?

-But 60-40. -55-45.

60-40, Johnny.

Deal.

I want this protection tattoo against evil energies.

Against black magic and vengeance.

Why something so powerful?

I really need that protection.

Where do you want it?

Here. In the shape of a bracelet.

But I want the knot to be continuous.

My tattoo methods are old-fashioned.

Needles against your skin, and then the color is inserted later.

It's a more traditional method.

-However, it hurts twice as much. -I can handle the pain.

To tattoo that on you, I have to be sure you haven't drank alcohol for 24 hours.

I haven't drank at all.

It can take us over three hours to make that tattoo.

-We have all the time in the world. Right? -All the time.

And it won't be cheap.

-Why don't you want to help me? -That's not it.

It's part of my job to let you know all the risks involved.

You know a lot about magical protection tattoos.

Where did you learn to do them?

It's an old family tradition.

How do you know about the tattoo you picked?

You know the answer.

You saw it.

Why did you do it?

I didn't know it was for you. They lied to me.

Who?

I can't tell you that.

You know the rules. A son of Oaha never snitches on friend or foe.

I need you to do a cleanse.

And remove this curse.

Sure. But there's something you must know.

If I remove the curse against you, it will backfire against the person that made it.

That person asked for it. It's karma.

That's what I think.

A reversed witch is one thing.

But it's something different for a human to deal with the curse.

Are you sure that's what you want for your enemy?

...from my mother. I'm here.

Asking for this water to take all the evil away.

To cleanse something that should've never been sullied.

Go ahead, I'm sure.

I undo what I did to free Carmen from the curse.

Let the person who wanted her cursed deal with the burden herself.

What's your problem with Carmen?

-None. -What bothers you so much then?

I don't get it, you and Alicia are learning an exact science: biology.

Why would you believe in Carmen's pseudoscience?

I believe that science can learn a lot from that pseudoscience.

People are allowed to believe in unicorns, if they want.

That's true.

But if I were Alicia's friend, like you,

I'd tell her not to follow Carmen and stop getting in so much trouble.

I think we can finish this some other time, Amanda.

Are you really leaving?

-Yes. -That was an innocent comment, really?

Don't worry. We can leave it for some other time.

Mayte, wait, please!

Mayte, wait, please! I'm sorry.

For what?

For sticking my nose where it doesn't belong.

Can we start over, please?

I'll go get some beers for us. Yes?

Okay.

Amanda!

-Are you okay? -Yes, that stupid bird made me fall.

Which bird?

The one that attacked me. That's why I fell.

But there was no bird, Amanda.

Yes, there was! It was a huge black bird.

My leg!

-What happened to you? -Nothing, Tomás is an asshole.

-I won't sell him the elixir anymore. -That sounds great.

I don't want to sell it anymore.

-What are you talking about? -I don't want to lie to Mayte.

But there's a lot of people waiting for it. Don't you like the money?

Of course, but not like this.

So now you're feeling unethical?

You didn't feel that way when you spent the money we made together!

I said I'm out!

We're together in this, like it or not!

You can't force me.

Grab it! There you go!

-Wait! -Watch out. Try it again.

What the hell is going on here?

-Stop, Alicia! -What are you doing?

Let me introduce you to the newest tour guide superstar of Cartagena.

Johnny Ki, can we talk? Alone, please.

-Careful. -Johnny Ki!

Be careful.

Don't drink it all. Leave me some. Yes?

I told you to convince him to go back! I don't want him here.

And now he's becoming a tour guide?

Johnny Ki, Carmen has her powers back. She could recognize him!

That's not a problem. Just keep him locked in here.

-No, no, no. -Look, wait.

I made a decision. We're going to use Kobo a bit.

-And we'll become millionaires! -Of course.

How so? Telling pirate stories?

Yes and no.

Turns out there's a treasure. Buried here, in Cartagena.

-Gold, jewelry. Lots of money. -Of course.

It's Kobo's treasure. He buried it in the past. And me, unknowingly,

brought the map to the treasure.

And the tourist guide thing will be our cover,

so we can get in, disguised, and recover the treasure.

-Got it? -That's the dumbest idea you've ever had.

But we'll become millionaires! It's a lot of money!

-For the three of us. -Stop it with your crazy stories.

-And don't count me in. Forget about it. -That's what you say now.

What are you doing?

I always wanted one of these. I'll get it once we get the treasure.

Carmen... you need to accept it.

You need to protect yourself. This can't happen again.

Carmen!

I had a revelation last night.

Nothing will happen again to me with this magic formula.

-Okay. Are you ready, my assistant? -I'm ready.

The smoke from the incense will cleanse my spirit.

Carmen, can you teach me how to clear evil energies from spaces?

If you tell me the truth, maybe.

I know you're hiding something. I've felt it since yesterday.

I knew it was just a matter of time.

Carmen, that cousin I introduced you to...

He's not my cousin.

-He's Kobo. -Kobo?

-Kobo, the pirate? -Carmen, I swear. It wasn't my fault!

Johnny Ki.

I knew it! I should've closed that portal!

I swear, Carmen. We're sending that pirate back, I swear.

The moment there's any trouble, I'm sending him back myself.

It's enough that I have to find the one who cursed me.

Well, they'll pay for it. But Antares warned you.

Still, I was surprised you'd try to hurt someone.

Even if that person hurt you first.

Alicia, I didn't return the curse to that person to make them pay.

I did it to find out who they are.

How are we going to find out?

-Hello. -Hello.

Amanda!

You did it.

-Why do you hate me so much? -What are you talking about?

You have a bad omen bird flying over your head. Don't try to deny it.

Carmen.

-What did you do to me? -I returned the spell you put on me.

Why do you want me to look bad?

I think there's a reason in particular you despise me.

Carmen, please. You're not the center of the universe. And you don't scare me.

I'm not afraid of you...

Or your stupid bird.

You can't escape your bad luck without my help.

Are you okay?

You split your head open.
