A NETFLIX ORIGINAL LIMITED SERIES

- Where were you? - On a job with pigface.

- You're so lucky. - I always get the biggest bores.

- Let's go. - No, wait! Let's get a drink.

- Can we? - There's nothing around here.

- There's the Stein. - No way they'll let us in there.

Let me handle it.

What did you tell him?

I promised him ten minutes in the bathroom.

- If Aníbal finds out… - Fuck him.

I can do whatever the hell I want on my night off.

Two tequilas.

Thank you.

It's their signature drink.

What's that?

Just try it.

For Mom and Dad.

Do you know her?

Would you like to?

What do you think?

Go over there.

What about you?

Yeah? Will you hold my wedding ring for me?

Come on, go over there.

Girl, there's a super-hot guy over there who can't stop looking at you.

He's so hot.

- Come on, go. - No.

- Wow, he's so sexy! Oh my God. - No, come on. Today's for us. Stop.

Okay, I'll drop it.

Death to men.

Death.

She's with another girl.

Talk to both, politely ask the other one to leave...

I don't know what I'm doing. Been inside a year…

I'll go pay my debt.

If that hottie comes to hit on you and you need me, scream.

- Okay. - Very loud.

- I should go. - Yes.

Now or never.

Come on!

May I?

It's free.

And your friend?

- Is she… Where is she? - Getting into trouble I'm sure.

Do you come here often?

- You serious? - What did I say?

Sorry, sorry, I mean…

I didn't think anyone used that pickup line anymore.

I'm sorry.

Is it that obvious?

Yeah.

I've been out of the game for a while.

It's okay.

It's just like riding a bike.

Horses.

Lots of horses on an enormous ranch

with snowy mountains.

Right? No! Not horses, they're cows.

- Cows. - I know.

- You're a cattle herder in the wild, yeah? - You're right. I'm a cowboy.

- Seriously? - No.

I think you'll have to practice a bit more.

Okay, my turn.

- Shit! That's a lot. - If it's bad, I don't wanna know.

I only see good things.

I see parties,

laughter, a fun girl with lots of friends.

People want to be near her but also she needs some time on her own.

Come on. A toast, for fuck's sake.

Because I think behind the facade there's a girl nobody knows.

An undiscovered treasure.

- Sorry, I'm boring you. I didn't wanna... - No…

Did I say something? I'm an idiot...

Shall we go?

- What do you mean, go? - Let's go.

By the way, my name's Mat.

What's yours?

People've been calling you Olivia Costa for years,

but your real name is Cándida Isabel Russo.

Isa to your family, Candance to the clients.

You were born in the poorest neighborhood in Mexico.

You've always thought three names were too many

for someone who didn't deserve one.

Mom, please get up.

You don't know your dad, and you've no memories of your mom.

Mom! Mom!

Sometimes you give thanks to God you don't.

When you're five…

SPANISH ORPHANAGE

…you realize you'll be happy if you have a family.

Four-eyes! Four-eyes!

But the orphanage reminds you daily you'll never have one.

For years,

a postcard from some distant cousins is your only hope.

You swear you'll do whatever it takes to make it to them.

BEST WISHES FROM SPAIN! YOUR COUSINS

♪ Move your hands Across this promised land… ♪

You run away from the orphanage and manage to get to Spain,

believing the worst is behind you.

But it has only just begun.

Paco?

♪ Please fall in love with me… ♪

With no family, no money, no papers…

you're a ghost to everybody else.

Two years later, you're still sleeping on the streets.

And then, you get a glimpse of the abyss.

You see you're going to be deported.

You'll go back to the place you ran away from.

And when you're sure the end is near…

♪ We may be strangers here… ♪

Beautiful.

…you're offered a way out.

- What's up, boss? - Evening.

Go on, count it. It'll take you a while.

Aníbal Ledesma prevents you being deported.

- Her ID. - A pleasure.

Take care.

Great. This is a big family.

- Isn't that right, honey? - Yes.

Yes, babe.

You'll feel at home here, you'll see.

He promises you documents to remain in Spain,

and he makes you believe you'll finally have a future.

What you don't realize,

is that future will come at a price, one you'll never be able to pay.

That day, little Isa dies forever.

You turn into Candance Russo, Aníbal Ledesma's slave.

But in the darkest hole,

Kimmy becomes like a mother and she'll always be there for you.

♪ Please fall in love… ♪

And she'll give you the only advice that helps you survive.

To stop being yourself out there, with the clients.

You have to put on a mask,

become a character that serves as a shield against the pain.

But it's not always enough.

You know what comes after that applause.

And you feel miserable.

Until one day, a guy looks at you with the purest eyes you've ever seen

and he asks you what your name is.

By the way, my name's Mat.

What's yours?

Olivia.

I'm still Olivia, Mat.

The same person you met at that bar,

that you've been with all this time.

You've been lying to me for years.

I thought all that was behind me. I'm sorry.

You should have told me.

- I was too afraid. - Afraid of what?

I swallowed my fear and my shame to be honest with you.

I told you everything about me, Olivia.

For me it wasn't that easy.

- You think it was for me? - I'm sorry. That's not what I meant.

I didn't know any better.

Until I met you, I'd only known so much fear.

You, this life…

All of this was a dream I never thought I could have.

And… …I couldn't lose you.

I couldn't put Emma in danger.

Maybe it's the police.

- Mara, was that you calling home just now? - Yes, it was me.

To tell you I'm leaving now.

- What about Jorge? - He didn't ask, and won't say anything.

- I'll be there in about 40 minutes. - Okay, try to hurry.

It was Mara. She's coming.

You know, I spent my first… night of freedom in this house.

Isma and Mara took me in.

Thanks to them, I had another chance.

Though I didn't deserve it.

I don't know what I would've done if I hadn't met you.

I feel the same.

That night we saved each other.

You said you didn't deserve the good luck of meeting me.

While I was thinking it was the other way round.

That's why I didn't show up to our date either the following day.

But we found each other again.

There's something I never lied to you about.

I love you.

I love you more than anything in the world.

How did you manage to get out of all that?

Thanks to Emma.

That's why I had to protect her.

- It's kind of a long story. - We've got until Mara gets here.

Aníbal booked us every single night.

He made quite a lot of money using us.

But he didn't think it was enough

so he wanted to use us for another project.

Why are we here?

That was the beginning of his fall.

And that's where Emma comes in.

Honey!

This is your temple.

A place without any rules, where you'll be my squires,

my custodians.

Whoever enters here will have no name, they'll be a number.

And only I will know the real identity of that number.

If that rule is broken, there will be consequences.

What do you mean, your custodians? Custodians of what?

Show them, honey.

You know how I feel about all this.

Just do it.

Ladies…

…my newest recruits.

The most valuable merchandise.

And you will take care of it.

They were little girls.

Aníbal recruited them same as he had done with us,

keeping their passports and threatening them.

Our job was to oversee those wild orgies.

Word started to get out,

and there were more and more bastards paying a fortune to get in.

We knew they were important people.

Getting in there had a price tag most people couldn't pay.

What we didn't know

was what a man is capable of doing when he's freed from his identity.

For months, those beasts raped those poor young girls.

They tortured them, and we couldn't stop them.

Especially one son of a bitch who couldn't stop his brutality.

That day was the point of no return.

Don't leave me alone with him, please.

Why don't you take me instead?

- We have to stop that psycho. - What can we do?

Let's get Aníbal. Don't worry.

Somebody help me! Please!

You're safe.

It's over, don't worry. You're okay.

You okay?

Calm down, let us see.

What happened?

Lavanda!

Candance!

Lavanda!

Get out of there.

Lavanda!

Lavanda!

Open up, asshole!

Kimmy, we have to call Aníbal!

No!

Lavanda! Open up!

They never came out of there.

We called Aníbal, but he didn't let us see what happened.

Emma told us later.

I'll keep this brief

'cause I spent the night on the boat and my voice is hoarse.

This is Cassandra.

From now on, she'll live with you and fill Lavanda's spot.

For you that's all she is, right? Just a spot.

It's a business, darling.

We don't have time for sentimental feelings.

It's over.

- No more orgies. - What did you say?

You heard me.

Candance and I fill this club, and never complain,

but this is no good.

We aren't going to let those savages abuse those girls anymore.

You are going to do as I say, as always.

If we all say no, I'd love to see how you open the club tomorrow.

All right.

We have a union representative.

What else do you want, Kimmy?

A 35-hour week?

Paid vacations and holidays?

Hmm?

- Just a little dignity is enough. - You know what, Kimmy?

To ask for something, first, you have to be very sure you deserve it.

You think you deserve it?

Kimmy! Kimmy! No!

Let me go!

You fucking bitch!

Kimmy!

You're a fucking bitch!

Kimmy!

Do you deserve it or not? I can't hear you.

- Well, bitch? You deserve it or not? - Let me go, asshole!

- Aníbal. - I can't hear you, Kimmy.

- What now? - Stop it.

- Fuck you. - Stop it!

Look at me. Look at me! She has to work tomorrow.

That is true.

I'm sorry you had to see that.

They were asking for it.

It'll be okay, love.

Should we call a doctor?

No.

- I don't want to get you in trouble. - And the new girl?

She's a total bitch.

- Be careful with her. - Emma.

Why are you with him?

Me being with him doesn't mean I'm any freer than you all.

Don't cry, sweetie.

Aníbal has to pay for this.

And he's going to.

I swear.

Come.

I never dared to use it.

But I think we're gonna need it now.

Kimmy…

I promise we'll get out of this place.

Aníbal has our passports.

We'll buy others.

I have some money saved, not much,

but after some time, we'll have more.

Trust me, Candance.

We'll get out of here, you know?

We danced for him. We fucked for him.

We were his slaves,

but we also got tips.

We stole small amounts, so we wouldn't get noticed.

Emma always knew it was us.

Who's stealing from me? Fucking hell!

But she protected us.

She protected us from everything,

except for her.

That's it.

Oh, I can't believe it.

You realize with all this we have enough to start over?

TAPE 27

What's wrong? Don't know how to fucking knock?

If you want, I can go. Just telling you Kimmy and Candance are fucking you over.

So you've been saving up a little egg-nest?

How much do you have?

Count it.

A thousand.

Two thousand.

Five thousand.

Kimmy!

Candance! Candance!

Kimmy!

Stop!

Kimmy!

- Come, motherfucker, come! - Let me go, you bastard!

- Kimmy! - Candance!

Kimmy!

Emma decided to rebel against Aníbal

and put an end to his reign of terror.

She crafted a plan for the three of us to run away.

I'll give the information…

Once before,

the police'd offered her a deal in exchange for information about Aníbal.

They thought they could finally put an end to his operation.

Aníbal had another business going alongside the orgies.

Minors bring money, but blackmail brings more.

I don't know their names,

becauseAníbal hides their identities on tapes

and catalogs them with numbers.

They're married men in high positions.

You can't imagine how much money he gets from them.

Know where he keeps the money?

I have no idea but the tapes are in the safe at his office.

I know the combination.

Maybe we can get those tapes and blackmail Aníbal.

Threaten to destroy them if we can't get free.

If he doesn't have those tapes he'll record new ones.

We don't care about all the tapes. Only one we're interested in.

Aníbal fucked up and blackmailed the wrong person.

A powerful man who could destroy him and his business.

The son of a bitch that killed Lavanda.

Lavanda!

His tape is number 27.

If we get it, we'll have Aníbal by the balls.

- When is he giving it to him? - Thursday at midnight.

We need to get him out of there so I can get the tapes.

On Thursday I'm with a client all day in Puerto Banús.

I'll do it.

I'm not gonna let you do that.

- It's now or never. - Stay out of this.

Kimmy, listen to me. What if this is our last opportunity?

Everything will be fine.

I managed to convince Kimmy, and we went ahead with Emma's plan.

Girls, the ones that need makeup, go to the dressing room.

We used the time Aníbal took his usual round

before opening the club

to carry out our plan, so Emma could sneak into his office.

We had to steal that tape before his meeting with number 27,

so Aníbal wouldn't have any leeway and would be forced to accept our demands.

He had to give us back our passports,

which he kept in a compartment inside his safe,

and enough money to disappear and leave that life behind.

Then, that morning,

Kimmy got ready to go to Puerto Banús.

I still remember how she looked at me when we said goodbye.

I didn't know then,

but that was the last time I would see her.

Sure you don't want me to stay?

Not now. Finish your drink and leave, okay? I have a meeting.

No, no, no.

This can't be. It can't be!

What's up, my love? Did you lose something?

TAPE 27

What's wrong? Don't you know how to fucking knock?

It was you.

You took it.

Took what?

You're the only one who saw me put it in there.

Fucking tape number 27. Where is it?

He sent you, right?

- You work for him, don't you? - I swear I didn't take anything.

Shh.

Don't worry, okay? It's fine.

It's fine.

This was your plan from the beginning.

That's why you've been showing your pussy around here.

- No, my love, I just want to be with you. - Sure. So do I.

- I want us to be a team. - We're already a team.

So tell me where is it?

Where is it?

Aníbal, please.

Where is it?

Shh!

Come here, bitch.

Fucking bitch!

Come here.

What have you done?

She stole from me.

This bitch took…

She didn't steal anything.

You mean this tape?

Listen to me and do exactly what I tell you.

If you think I'm gonna obey two treacherous whores,

you're in for a surprise.

I don't think you have much of a choice.

- My guys are out there. - Your guys are enjoying the show.

You're on your own. In half an hour you have to deliver this tape. Choose.

What do you want?

Our passports and 100,000 euros.

No way. You know I don't keep that amount in the safe.

Not in the safe, but we both know you have it.

Let us go and I swear you'll never see us again.

Fucking bitches.

Very well.

You win, I guess.

We want Kimmy's too.

I think that's all of it.

Shh!

Drop the gun or I'll blow her head off.

Don't listen to him!

- Drop it! I'm warning... - No!

If you don't shoot him, he'll kill both of us.

- Shut up! - Just shoot him!

- Candance, please! - No…

This is how you thank me for all I've done for you?

You bitch!

You're just a fucking whore like all the others.

Are you all right?

I don't know. And you?

What do we do?

Let me think.

Take off your clothes.

- What? - Take your clothes off.

Get dressed, fast.

Why do you want my passport?

When the police identify the body, they'll think it's yours.

Honey, look at me.

You'll be able to become the person you always wanted.

- They won't look for you. - No, they'll look for you.

No, they'll look for Aníbal.

They'll think I couldn't betray him and we ran away together.

We'll both be able to start over.

And Kimmy?

We have to leave Kimmy.

What the fuck are you talking about? I'm not leaving her.

Now that Aníbal is gone, Kimmy will be able to start over.

We need someone to tell the police the clothes belong to you.

You and I will disappear, and Kimmy will be our alibi.

But… But she'll think I died.

- I can't do that to her! - You have to do it.

Or they'll kill the three of us.

This will be our life insurance.

We have to think of how to get rid of him.

Son of a bitch.

Don't worry, we'll find someone to help you.

Candance.

You'll be all right. I swear, everything will be all right.

How are you feeling, honey? How are you? Let me see that.

Look at me. Look at me! Look at me now!

We're going to dump him and go. It'll be real quick.

You take that side.

Hurry up and grab your things.

Be strong, honey, we're almost done.

Hello, Kimmy. This is Emma.

Honey, we're aborting the plan. Everything went wrong.

Aníbal caught Candance looking for the tapes

and he went completely crazy.

He killed her, Kimmy. Aníbal killed Candance.

I wish I could've done something, but it all happened too fast.

Aníbal's really worried Cassandra may go to the police

and tell them everything.

He's threatening me.

I have to leave with him. I have no option.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry I got you into this mess.

I never thought it would end like this.

I hope you can forgive me someday.

Good luck, honey.

FORGIVE ME

I never forgave myself for abandoning Kimmy.

But I didn't know how to reach her without betraying Emma.

I had to decide in a split second.

And that decision has haunted me all this time.

So, your scar…

It wasn't an accident from when you were little.

No.

They couldn't take me to the hospital.

They stitched me up as best they could.

We came to Barcelona because Emma knew someone at a boarding school.

A distant relative who could get us fake birth certificates

to go with our new passports.

Candance!

- She's wounded - Wounded?

Why didn't you tell me?

- Candance? - What's wrong with her?

What are we gonna do?

Please, you have to take us in. We don't have anywhere else to go.

It was her who took care of me.

And weeks later, she had arranged everything.

Emma, are you aware of the step you're going to take?

If you stay with us, you'll have to follow our rules.

You'll live your life inside these walls.

That's what I need right now.

Very well.

Then from now on, your name will be María Luján Calvo.

MARÍA LUJÁN CALVO WAS BAPTIZED IN THIS PARISH

And you, dear?

What will your name be?

By the way, my name's Mat.

What's yours?

Olivia.

Emma and Candance had died forever.

Or so we believed.

We hid those tapes in the safest place we could find.

I kept one key and Emma kept the other.

In Candance's whole life, you were the closest thing to freedom.

So when I rebuilt my life…

I was lucky to do it by your side.

Hurry up!

There were some things from Candance I knew I couldn't erase.

And some others I chose not to.

All these years, Emma and I never lost touch.

Sorry I'm late.

No problem.

We met every Monday at the zoo

and we forced ourselves to call each other by our new names.

- I'm pregnant. - What?

Poor Emma.

She was always afraid that someone would find us.

I'm sure she was killed because of the tapes,

number 27 or any of the others.

The men in the tapes would do anything to prevent them from getting out.

What's your trip to Berlin have to do with it?

- It's Zoe. - The police took her.

Mat, they released me an hour ago, and they took everything from my office.

Won't be long until they find out where you are.

Tell me how I can help you.

I'm gonna go call her.

Mat.

- Are you okay? - We're hiding. What can I do?

Turn your phone off, don't use credit cards,

and tell me where you are, so I can help you.

We're hiding at Mara's. She's on her way and she's gonna lend us the car.

Mat, things have gotten complicated.

I know the police have requested a warrant to tap your phone.

Also while they were holding me,

I heard your court order's already been issued in Madrid.

- Be very careful, okay? - Okay, thanks a lot.

Good luck.

Zoe can't do anything. We're on our own.

Olivia, why did you tell me you were going to Berlin?

Tell me.

Why did you disappear like that?

This part is the most difficult.

I've got a daughter.

Her name is Paula.

What am I gonna do?

Everything will be all right.

I got pregnant while working at El Paraíso.

I wanted an abortion, but Aníbal wouldn't let me.

Push!

With time,

I learned to love the life that was growing inside of me.

Push, push.

When she was born,

I felt so much love

- I thought my chest was gonna explode. - She's so pretty.

Suddenly, there it was. The family I always wanted,

me, Kimmy and Paula.

At that time, that was my future.

But Aníbal had other plans.

I didn't want to give her up, but what could I do?

Condemn her to grow up in that hell? To have my life?

I had to give her a chance for a family and a future.

I couldn't be so selfish.

So Emma took her and she was saved from all that.

I HEREBY TRANSFER CUSTODY OF PAULA…

She was safe from me.

I never knew anything about her until the day we went to see the house.

- Yes? - Is this Olivia Costa?

Yes, that's me.

I'm calling you on behalf of Paula's parents,

the daughter you gave up for adoption.

There was never any work call, no trip to Berlin.

That day, my past came back to haunt me.

I made a deal with them that they'd take me to Paula

in exchange for 50,000 euros.

I'd like to withdraw 50,000 euros, please. Can you put it in here?

She had a problem, and I was the only one who could help her.

If I've learned anything,

it's that your past never leaves you alone.

No matter how deep you think you've buried it.

You look really well for a dead woman,

Cándida Isabel Russo.

How did you find me?

I'm the detective who investigated your murder at El Paraíso Star.

I have to hand it to you. You had us all fooled.

The disfigured face, the DNA we found in the other girl's room…

Nobody saw anything strange.

Just a whore beaten to death by her pimp.

But then, some years later, some very worried parents

hired me to find their adopted daughter's biological mother.

But something didn't add up.

According to the autopsy, the dead woman had AIS,

a genetic condition that prevented her from having children.

And after that,

bingo.

How do I know she's mine?

Genetics are amazing, aren't they?

She looks just like you.

You could have… forged all of this.

They told me that Paula has a genetic disorder.

She needs a kidney, or she's going to die.

That's why her parents were looking for me.

How do you know that's true if all you saw was a photo?

It's her, Mat. I know it.

How can you be so sure?

And the videos you sent? What was that about?

- I didn't send you anything, I told you. - What do you mean

you didn't send anything? It was your phone.

I don't know, Mat. I don't understand it, either. I…

I don't know.

I waited a long time while they arranged a meeting with my daughter's parents.

I fell asleep. I don't know, Mat, maybe they drugged me.

Olivia, this doesn't make any sense.

If it was a lie, I wouldn't have received this.

Her father sent this to me.

This is real, Mat.

TOMORROW 11:00 P.M. SANTA EUGENIA SQUARE, MARBELLA

My daughter's waiting in Marbella.

Your daughter's in Marbella and now you gotta go there?

- What can I do? Abandon her again? - Can't you see they're fucking with us?

- Who, Mat? - I dunno You tell me.

Olivia, what?

It can't be.

Tell me.

Look at me.

Look at me. We'll dump...

He moved before we threw him into the sea.

- It's over. Let's move him. - Careful!

Come on!

He was alive, Mat. He was alive.

But it's impossible he survived.

It's Mara. Turn your phone off.

Done.

Turn around!

Hands on your head.

Hands on your head.

Turn around.

Get down on your knees.

Get down on your knees.

Get out.

Come on out.

Mat.

They released me an hour ago, and they took everything from my office.

Won't be long until they find out where you are.

Tell me how I can help you.

I know the police have requested a warrant to tap your phone and…

Also, while they were holding me,

I heard your court order's already been issued in Madrid.

It was her. That detective wants to fuck me over.

- What do we do? - I don't know.

but I'm being framed for the murders of Sáez and Gallardo.

If I tell them everything I've told you...

They won't believe you. They have me as their scapegoat.

Take her and let her go, as we agreed.

Why me?

Because from now on, we're handling this case.

No, this is my case too.

It's not.

Mateo Vidal and Olivia Costa,

- you're surrounded. - Come on, let's go.

Make this easy and come out now.

Last warning.

Come out now!

Hold on, we're coming!

Listen to me. Mat, listen!

You're right. They are looking for you. Not for me.

- What? - Listen carefully.

- It's important you remember this. - No.

Tomorrow. Marbella.

- Santa Eugenia Square, 11:00 p.m. - I'm not going.

Listen to me, Mat!

They have nothing on me.

- I won't go... - They have nothing at all.

Trust me. Please listen.

Final warning.

You have 30 seconds to come out, or we will enter the house by force.

Let's go.

Come out with your hands up!

Hands up, come on!

Get down.

Vidal hasn't come out. We're going in.

No trace of Mateo Vidal anywhere inside.

Where is he?

Where is who?

Inform all units.

Nobody sleeps tonight until we find Mateo Vidal.
