Original subtitles

Excuse me, but I don't quite understand, Mr. Cadenas.

Ambassador Salinas,

Did he mediate or not mediate for you to get the award?

I didn't see it, Your Honor.

In front of me he did not move a paper or make a call,

but it is clear that something did.

Why is it so clear?

Well, he arrived and they gave me the concession.

And I tell you one thing, Your Honor: If he did it, well done.

Those embassies cost taxpayers a penny,

a fortune

And for what, if not to help the Spaniards

who are trying to break through abroad?

What mechanisms did the ambassador have to influence the

concession of the work? With few, I suppose, Your Honor.

What he can do is put obstacles, ask for papers...

Play cool. These mamandurria love

to touch the noses of entrepreneurs...

You can save yourself the little speech, Mr. Cadenas.

Summarizing. Ambassador Don Luis Salinas helped him get

the concession. The project was impeccable, Your Honor.

All the money I earn in Thailand is thanks to the

sweat of my brow and the sacrifice of my workers.

Do you recognize that image? Of course.

Ambassador Salinas and a server.

I lent him that money, and by the way, he hasn't paid me back.

What did he give it to you for? I do not know.

If a friend asks me for money, I don't ask what it is for.

Can you ensure that this loan is not related to

the final concession of the high-speed train?

Well. I'm going to tell you one thing, Your Honor, with all due respect.

The ambassadors pass one after the other

and the Cadenas Group is still in Bangkok, and do you know why?

Because I am very stubborn and when I want something, I get it.

And thanks to people like me, Spain has risen.

Malai, is the ambassador in his office?

Yes, "madame", but he is in a meeting.

But can I or can't I pass?

Oh sorry. I thought you were done.

No no. Claude, stay. She closes the door.

No. A "D".

The last letter is a "D", for Denmark.

If that is. Please, I ask you to handle

this with the utmost discretion, okay?

Good. I'll wait for your call.

Verónica, I am going to inform Claudia about

the content of the encrypted message. OK? No.

I can't agree, Luis.

Don't be offended, Claudia. This is sensitive information.

Claudia is aware of everything. I prefer that this does not spread.

It is not a personal matter. Unfortunately,

the embassy's dirty business is also personal.

They welcomed me with a photo montage and

we still don't know who is behind Ester's.

Claudia, Verónica has in her possession the last encrypted

message that the previous ambassador sent to Madrid.

She assures that at the Embassy there is someone involved in

a crime of capital evasion. Are you talking about Edward?

No. It says that the money leaves Thailand camouflaged

with the merchandise that a Spanish company exports.

It only indicates a container number and a shipping date.

I have called Madrid to keep track of the container since

it arrived at its destination. Is there any other message?

Well. If there is, we don't know.

The previous ambassador died three days after sending this one.

It may not have been an accident.

Romero told me that the autopsy said that he was dead

before the accident. Then the autopsy disappeared.

That told me when I got here.

And then the Ester thing happened.

Who is Romero?

(Mobile)

(Mobile)

(Mobile)

(Mobile)

Javi?

Javi? (ROMERO) I'm here.

(Door bell)

Where is? In bed, it's not good.

I must speak to her. Didn't you hear me?

She must rest, she is upset. we all are.

Don't fuck with me! -Javi, please!

Can you tell your dog to leave us alone?

Javi, please.

he pulls.

We are about to lose everything and you with it.

What about the Cadenas partner? We have Richard.

He is a scammer. We can pay you.

He does not give time to look for another. We'll pay that and he'll want more.

I know him. You are with me?

I'm with you. Please go easy.

I will continue to make calls. I'm going to find it.

We've been at this for a year. I need it for today, for now.

(ROMERO) Leave her! -Leave me please.

He told you to go. You should ventilate the house.

If the police come in here, you'll be in trouble.

I guess he's a threat. I don't care about your assumptions.

-Please go. Go away.

Thank you.

Thank you.

(MAITE) I have no doubt that you love each other.

If you say so, I believe it.

-So what is the problem?

How do you want me to show you that we love each other?

We are husband and wife. Is he going to give us the visa?

- It's not up to me.

I'll pass it on to the consul's signature and I'll let him know tomorrow, okay?

Please, if you are so kind, fill out the application.

Right here.

It is one thing to collect a commission, steal, even

for large sums, and another is to end someone's life.

The ambassador had discovered something and was going to denounce it.

They put Ester in jail without having done anything.

We don't know who is behind it.

Please... Do you still doubt it?

If you continue investigating, do so discreetly.

Claudia, Verónica is the only help I have left in the ministry.

You don't have to explain to me. We're separated.

Maite, can you come to my office? Yes, ambassador.

(IN ENGLISH)

Maite, you command all the ciphers.

Also with the previous ambassador?

Yes of course.

Do you remember the last one that he sent a few days before he died?

Yeah.

Are you aware of the serious accusation contained in that message?

I'm sorry, Ambassador, but I'm not authorized to reveal

information regarding... I know. Calm down, Matt.

I'm not asking you for anything irregular.

The content of the message remains confidential.

-In fact, you didn't discuss it with anyone, right?

-Of course not. I have it forbidden.

And do you know if the ambassador discussed it with someone here?

If someone was aware of the seriousness of the message?

I just sent it. I don't know anything else, I promise.

Something has happened? No.

We're just going over the ambassador's activities.

-By the way, do you remember who visited the ambassador the last few days?

before the accident? -No. Don't know. I don't usually pay attention.

-And the ambassador did not tell you anything

when he asked you to send that message?

- I would remember.

Thanks, Matt.

Maite.

What I would ask you is

discretion about what we just talked about. Could be?

Of course. Thank you.

I got along well with Ambassador Schultz, as with you,

but I'm an administrator and I just do my job.

The truth is that I don't know what the others are doing either.

And less in these corridors. Thank you.

Maite, how did it go with the ambassador?

Have you talked about Schultz's last message?

He asked me if I told anyone, but I didn't tell him anything.

Do you think she knows? Do you know that I told you?

Peaceful. You did well to tell me.

I was the senior diplomat here,

still am, and you have to trust me.

But...why did he ask you about that message?

Do you think he knew the content? No good...

Don't know.

Don't worry. It no longer matters.

Unfortunately, Schultz is gone.

What bad luck he had.

An accident like this can happen to anyone.

Tell me Claudia. "Romero, we have to talk."

About what?

"Of the death of the previous ambassador".

Because? Is there any news?

There is no record of another vehicle or that it ran over anyone.

The official car fell into the river, that's all we know.

But the driver's body was never found.

It is assumed that he also drowned, but they only

rescued the corpse of the ambassador. The autopsy said

that he had no water in his lungs. He was dead

before the accident. Who changed the autopsy?

Does he know?

I tried to find out, but the one who changed her

he has much more money than me to bribe them.

A lot of trouble has gone to make it look like an accident.

I told him the day he arrived. Why is this rush now?

Why has he called me? He has found something, right?

Could you accompany me to the embassy... and tell the ambassador

the same thing that he has told me? What do they know?

Alright.

We know that Schultz, the previous ambassador,

denounced someone from the embassy who was involved

in a matter of corruption. Just a few days later, he died.

Happens. Forward. Come in.

Close the door please.

I saw how they took out the car with his body.

He was dead before the accident.

He was still wearing the belt.

I got to see a preliminary autopsy report and it

said he didn't drown. And why didn't you report it?

to Spanish justice? Because... I can't prove it.

The police investigation was closed long ago.

If you haven't been able to find a test in all

this time, I don't think it's easy to reopen it.

Unless there is a new certainty that makes it

reopen, for example, a reason for him to be murdered.

Schultz denounces corruption at the embassy and

three days later ends up at the bottom of the river.

We don't have any proof that he was killed, and we

don't have anything to support your accusations either.

For now. It is clear that there is corruption

and that there was when the previous ambassador was there.

-It's not enough to blame anyone.

We don't know who came here before his death.

-Because? Why don't they know?

The visits are public, right?

Who did Schultz talk to just before he died?

(SPEAKS IN ENGLISH)

As his second, I must know what kind of research they do here.

What investigation? Stop theaters.

What are the three of you doing here?

He canceled his schedule for today and didn't show up at the consulate.

Is the house informed of what they do?

Are you telling the press and not me?

So I have to tell you what I do in my working hours.

What is it you want?

What do you want, throw dirt on the previous ambassador?

We're still firing Bernardo and he's not even

going to respect the one who sat there before you.

Get out of my office.

It's the first time I see him nervous.

We'll be doing something right, right?

(EUGENIO) Nobody told me anything, but it's a matter of hours.

I can't go back to the office, Fatima.

-No, of course you can't come back like this.

You have to calm down. -Yeah.

-Take a few days off.

-I have already done it, but they discovered me.

When I got to my office, my computer

was gone and no one has told me why.

They know that I was the one who gave you the passwords to Eduardo's accounts.

They know it, dude! They know!

I'm sorry, Fatima. Very sorry. -You don't have to say that.

You have done me a favor that I cannot return.

-Yes, come with me.

-Ha, what do you say?

-Yeah. I've been thinking about it a lot. Let's go you and me

And the girl, of course. Let's go out of the country, away.

Do you want to go to New York, South Africa? Where you want.

It's a little hasty, don't you think?

I have lost my job, my career.

If I stay here, who knows what can happen to me.

-I've been putting up with Eduardo for a long time, now I won't leave the field free.

It will make your life miserable. -Can't.

He owes me half of what he has, I won't give up what's mine.

-He doesn't love you... and you don't love him either.

Think of this as an opportunity.

I wish you the best, Eugenio.

Your wife is very lucky and you are very generous,

but I don't suit you.

The personal visits of the ambassador,

when they were endorsed by him

were not always recorded on the computer

for confidentiality.

Did the ambassador ask that they not register?

That's how it is.

Villar, did you have a good relationship with the ambassador?

The usual in my position.

If you tell me what you want to find out, maybe I can help you.

Did Schultz have enemies?

Who doesn't have them?

Yes, but I suppose that you, as head of security,

should have known what ground the ambassador was on.

I don't understand what he means. If you know if in the last few

days he had any relationship with a particular Spanish company,

whose name might have been on the pages someone tore out.

I was only in charge of his safety.

I imagine that he informed his superiors in the ministry

from time to time about his professional activity.

Already.

What a pity about the accident, right?

A disgrace... for everyone.

The Royal Police collaborated in everything.

They spared no means to get the car out of the river as soon as possible.

But it was human error, right?

I want to say that the car came out in perfect condition.

Yeah.

We assume that the driver suffered a blackout,

but his body did not appear, we have not been able to verify it.

Tell me.

Have they found the boy, the son-in-law?

(VILLAR) "Carlos Guillén? Not a trace."

Sir, you asked me to keep you informed of the arrival of

the new consul. (VARGAS) "Yes, Verónica. Tell me about it."

-He told me that he came to calm the waters,

but I have the impression that he does just the opposite.

-What does he mean?

-"She and the ambassador are engaged in investigating

the last movements of the previous ambassador".

Are you investigating Schultz? Because?

I was hoping you could explain it to me.

-"What am I going to know about Schultz? I saw him once in my life.

A couple of months before his

accident in Madrid, at a meeting."

Let's see, I don't want one more problem in Bangkok.

If Veronica doesn't calm things down, I'll revoke her

appointment if it's the last thing I do at the ministry.

Keep a close eye on the ambassador. - I'll do my job, don't worry.

That's right, Your Honor, the appointment of Luis

Salinas as ambassador was a political decision.

-Do you mean that they named him by finger,

that he was not meant to be an ambassador?

-When the new government entered, some embassies were renewed.

All governments do it. -And among them the one in Bangkok.

-It was a much-discussed decision in the ministry.

-What decision?

The one to renew the embassies or

the one to name Luis Salinas ambassador?

-Salinas had been in the corridors for a long time,

without assignment, because of some unfortunate statements and

had resigned from his last assignment due to a mess of skirts,

but he had a lot of support in the party because

he collaborated with us during the campaign.

-And, in exchange, they rewarded him with a position.

-That is.

Honestly, it didn't take us long to

regret it, his appointment was a mistake.

His son-in-law's contract,

his daughter's drug problems,

spying on colleagues from the embassy.

Who would have thought that he would behave this way?

-Very good. Mr. Vargas, thank you very much. We're done.

-Your Honor, I would like to add something to my statement.

-Be brief, please.

-Those of us who named him knew of his inexperience.

Bangkok was his first destination as ambassador,

but we were far from

suspecting that Luis was corrupt.

Men like him do a disservice to the image of diplomats.

Luis Salinas represents exactly what the voters

want to banish from public life once and for all.

Don't bother, Claudia searched all over Bangkok for

Zambrano Invest and the addresses she found were fake.

Somewhere there must be the real one, the place

where they physically loaded the tea with the money.

to get him out of the country.

The message says that it is a lot of money;

It's not a gray backpack, it's a container.

We make a good team, just like old times.

Don't exaggerate, not that old.

Is it always so warm? He's going to give me something.

You have been very generous coming to help me.

I'm one of those who run into the storm

instead of running from it, you know me.

In Mexico...

I left without saying goodbye, you didn't deserve it.

On that we agree. You behaved like a bastard.

If I could travel back in time...

Would you do it again or worse.

But I already cried all I had to cry.

It doesn't make me happy that you regret it.

did you cry? Of course I cried.

What do you take me for?

Do you know the name that is repeated the most?

the person who came to visit the ambassador the most times?

Let's see if you guess it. Chains.

Paco Chains.

(IN ENGLISH) "Few workers here, we need more men.

Look them up, okay? Fine, do it. Do it!".

Paco.

This is what I do with my free

time, create things, produce.

Do you like it? Do I have to like it?

Well yes. This gentleman is Buddha, he

is very popular in this part of the world.

This will come to see people from all over the country.

If it's what they want, I give it to them for free.

I don't do business with people's beliefs.

yes, yes,

if you want to get to the top, you have

to cross all this wonderful shopping mall,

where you will find everything you need to remember your visit:

food, t-shirts, key chains, whatever.

It's the host. Congratulations.

What the hell have you come for?

I have told Patricia that I am not going to give a penny more.

Has she called you? Yes, sure, 10 or 12 times.

Let him close with this Richard, who can't find another.

Forget about Patricia.

You already want to get rid of her, don't you?

Of course, that of sharing commissions like no.

You are more Spanish than the Osborne bull.

I called the king's cousin's contacts again and

asked to see them today. And if they say no?

So tomorrow I'm going to the palace. Tomorrow.

That's the problem with you, it's always tomorrow.

Tomorrow is not worth it because tomorrow they are going to say who gets the train,

and I have nothing and you

are screwing my life together.

I'm going to call the ambassador. He has no contacts.

The ambassador owes me 600,000 bucks, he's going to have to do something.

I'll get you the train. What the hell train?

You who told me that you were going to be an

ambassador, the other hung who is never there?

That guy is the ambassador and

he's out of cocktails and canapés.

I put him to work for my balls, because he owes me a lot of money.

Have I been touched by the only fool who has not been spread?

If I tell it around, they won't believe it, damn it.

You're going to get the train... You know where it starts.

Malai, put me through to the king's cousin's secretary.

(IN ENGLISH) Yes, now!

Richard, it's me again.

Richard, you can't do this to me, you owe me.

I have Cadenas waiting.

We can reach an agreement, but it must be tonight.

As?

You've gone mad?

You know I can't give you that amount.

Richard. Richard, wait! Wait!

Fuck!

Shit. Shit.

(A door closes)

How are you?

Better not?

I have brought you dinner.

-I have work, you have dinner if you want.

What are you doing? Give me that. (JOKE) -Hey!

Work can wait. A few hours, a while.

-I screwed up, Romero.

I screwed up, but okay.

- Do you know where I come from?

From the ambassador's office.

Patricia, I... I don't want to visit you in jail.

-Would you do that?

Would you come visit me if I'm arrested?

-Yes of course.

I'm the only thing you have, the only one you can trust.

-It's true.

But there's one thing you don't understand.

Anything I tell you about

Eduardo takes me to jail with him.

-If you keep quiet, you are an accomplice to murder.

-Oh, you're at that again. Schultz died in an accident.

Eduardo is not capable of doing such a thing.

-Are you sure? Are you really sure?

-You can't prove anything, because nothing happened.

-The ambassador has discovered something and has called me.

Schultz denounced Eduardo in a coded message,

that's why they killed him. -Schultz did not denounce anyone.

He had the same commissions as us.

He was corrupt.

How is he going to be so stupid as to denounce?

-Maybe you didn't find out, but Eduardo did and he got rid of him.

If you're not his partner, you're his enemy. That's Eduardo, according to you.

Now don't believe anything.

OK.

Schultz did not report.

Eduardo is not a murderer.

Keep it up, Patricia, keep telling me nothing.

He is still complicit in everything.

Get out of my house, okay? -Because?

Why am I telling you the truth? I don't want any more questions.

I don't want to listen to you.

If you continue here you will also be an accomplice, don't you understand?

-Leave.

But I won't leave you alone.

-I'm alone.

I have always been alone.

How's it going, ambassador? She didn't want to

disturb him, but she would need to see him tonight.

No, it won't be possible tonight, I'm sorry.

Yes, it's urgent, ambassador.

Let him buy you a drink, dinner or whatever.

I need to see it.

Look, I don't want to deceive you, I have to ask you a favor.

Why don't you come over to the house for dinner tonight?

"Ambassador, is that you?"

Yes. He comes with his wife and we talk calmly.

Great, we'll be there. He doesn't know how happy he makes me.

Thanks for the invite, huh? "See you later".

Until tonight. Why have you invited him?

Because I knew the previous ambassador, Schultz.

And I'm sure you can tell us a lot about him.

He needs a favor, let's take advantage of it.

(He opens and closes the door)

Last night was very good, but it won't happen again.

-Because?

Because I'm not comfortable.

Roberto, don't look at me like that, you know I'm not well.

-Is it because of Carlos?

It's not just for Carlos.

I want to kill him for disappearing, but...

Well, I guess that doesn't help either.

-Already.

I understand.

-I have the feeling that he watches us all over the world.

-My fault. -You're my boss. I don't like mixing.

-I promise you that in the office we only talk about work.

-I don't know if I came here to work because I want to

or because I want to be with you.

It seems to me that the same thing happens to you.

We'll talk later, okay? Hey?

-What is this about Zambrano Invest?

-It is an investment group.

We keep the accounts of your companies.

Because? Do you know them?

Do they have something to do with your brother?

-I don't know, I don't carry your investment portfolio.

But no, I don't think so, my brother is not a businessman.

I'll send you what we have on them and you'll take a look.

-Yes if you do not mind.

Who are you kidding today?

You're not staying with your friend today, huh?

The one you had dinner with yesterday.

I know it? I don't think so.

His name is Eugenio Sanchís.

Until a few hours ago he worked running my affairs.

He gave you the keys to my accounts.

Our accounts.

He has only given himself away by going on the run.

You will have given him something in return, right? The fact that?

I don't think he'll get very far.

There is an international search and capture order.

And when he gets caught and talks, I figure he'll implicate you.

Are you coming to sleep?

If you're not coming to sleep, I'll take advantage and change the lock.

Do it.

I never use keys, that's what the service is for.

I also have lawyers, Eduardo.

And they say what you do is called leaving home.

If you want we make it official.

I change the locks, tell the service not to open you

and we talk about our daughter's visitation regime.

I suppose you'll be able to see her once every two weeks.

Are you threatening me?

No.

I'm asking if you're coming to sleep.

(Message to mobile)

Good night. How are you? Welcome.

Thank you. Lucia, a kiss.

gorgeous.

Here you go. Thank you.

Caramba! A detail. This might look more like a bribe.

Well, let's open it before the prosecution finds out.

Come with me.

This wine is a spectacle.

Although with this heat, it makes you want to put ice on it.

Yes, she is getting very hot these days, yes.

AHA.

Well, we have already talked about the weather and the wine.

Are we going to mess? I'd like to get everything discussed

before dinner, talking at the money table is in very bad taste.

Forward. Concession problems?

I would need you to make a call.

The prince, the minister, what do I know.

Stop fussing and pick up the phone at once.

Here I don't know if an ambassador can do much more than

what I have already done. I can't promise you anything.

You all say the same thing, right?

Do they teach it in diplomatic school?

Schultz was the same.

He always objected, objected.

What if I don't know, what if I can't... Blah, blah, blah.

Of course, in the end he always complied.

What do you mean he complied?

Don't play innocent with me.

You want to know about Schultz.

Well, make that call and I'll tell you about Schultz.

Quid pro quo. We are?

A deal is a deal, you make that call first thing tomorrow morning

and I'll tell you everything you want to know about Schultz now.

Alright.

But I'm not going to do anything illegal.

Sure, he's just going to call on the phone and ask what about mine.

Schultz. Arthur Schultz. Let's see, where do I start?

His 6% commissions, his taste for

young women, not to mention girls,

Or the ball he gave a week before hitting it?

Choose.

(Mower engine)

He came to talk to the king's cousin.

The excellence of him. (IN THAI) "Good morning."

Tell His Excellency that I am speaking on behalf of the

ambassador and, therefore, on behalf of the Kingdom of Spain.

(SPEAKS IN THAI)

But you have to understand that this... is a delicate matter.

This is not a formal meeting, which is

why the ambassador has not come in person.

His excellency would like to know what the ambassador wants.

He already did what was in his power.

The Cadenas group generously thanked him for his efforts,

but we need one last effort, in the name of good relations.

2% of the budget in the tax haven of your choice.

-Ku Log... the factory.

Excuse me, do you know where the tariff contract is?

It has a mistake, I just saw it.

I change it and print it for you again. Where is?

-You didn't give it to me. You sent it to me by "mail".

-Oh really? -AHA.

I could look it up.

Well, now I'm sending you a copy.

Good night. A pleasure.

Lucy. Many thanks for everything.

Thank you.

Let's go, Paco.

By the way, ambassador, remember about the call, huh?

We have a deal.

(door opens and closes)

So Schultz was corrupt.

For Cadenas, everyone is corrupt, it is normal.

Let's see, if Schultz was corrupt,

Why did he denounce corruption?

It's just that he didn't report it, Luis.

Think wisely. He gave the container number

and maybe he was calling Eduardo's attention.

Maybe they were fighting over commissions.

And Eduardo found out in time and thus he was able to prevent her from reaching the top.

Are you going to do what he has asked you?

Are you going to call the minister?

No.

I have lied to you.

That will be my crime.

He gave it to me when he took me to the factory.

There were a lot of boxes like this one,

they packed them to export them to Spain.

Ester, have you been in this factory?

The factory is in the name of Zambrano Invest.

I've seen it on Roberto's computer.

As? What have you entered into his computer?

Without telling him? For non-existent concepts.

Black money that Eduardo and Roberto exchange every week.

I wanted to stay in the legal part of the company.

Ester, this factory... doesn't just export tea.

This is the excuse to take black money out of

the country camouflaged in a tea container. As?

Do you know where the factory is?

This is the balance you can have.

You just have to choose the quantity.

Olga can receive the money tomorrow in cash.

Well, or if she prefers, in euros, in Spain.

As?

I transfer the money between accounts without leaving Hong Kong.

The one who receives the transfer gives it to us by hand, we have done it before.

Leave me alone.

Leave me alone, host!

We are not going to continue being a team with what you do behind my back.

I should be the one who gets angry.

I don't want to see that fucking journalist in my fucking life! Leave me alone!

(door opens and closes)

-"It costs you, huh?".

It doesn't cost you so much.

Eduardo, it's not that hard to be generous.

Even you can be.

You are not as bad a person as you make others believe.

Hey, how did the previous ambassador die?

Even now I can't figure it out.

Leave me please.

Come on, you owe me. You killed me, didn't you?

No no. You killed yourself.

It's not my fault. You lost your nerve.

You killed yourself.

Oh yeah?

And why can't you get my blood off your head?

Are you sure it was here?

Sure, I was working. She was putting the tea in the boxes.

They've taken everything.

And they have left the door open so we could check it out.

Esther, let's go. Here we have nothing to do.

Come on.

We have moved everything to a garage in Khao San.

We have given people a month's salary.

There will be no problem there. Already.

You invited the ambassador's daughter there, you

showed her your office... But there will be no problem.

Eduardo, I swear I'm sorry. It's no use complaining.

You always do the opposite of what I tell you.

I hope it serves as a lesson to you.

Ester has only seen some invoices.

She has not made copies or sent them by "mail".

Are you sure about that?

If you can be sure of anything.

The location had to be changed.

Not only because of Ester, that warehouse was already burned.

And why haven't you done it? We have done it now.

I have already found a buyer.

You just have to change the papers and everything is solved.

No one will associate the ship with Zambrano.

Do you know something else, something I should know?

I did not say anything.

What's wrong, you don't believe me?

Of course I believe you, Roberto. That is my weakness.

I hope I won't regret it one day.

But of course I believe you because you are my brother.

I love you and I will not change you.

Ester is not going to cause any problems. She will guarantee it.

I know.

Now forget about this and relax.

Have a good breakfast and don't go to work like this.

You are very tense.

I'm sorry.

Hello, I will not have woken you.

No, it's better that you don't come through the embassy.

The new consul is not tamed yet.

It's for you to talk to your friend the judge.

About the extradition of the girl.

The ambassador's daughter, yes.

The time has come.

(PATRICIA) Good news.

I have spoken with Richard. He is willing to accept 3%.

I'm glad, how did you get it?

Negotiating, as always.

Already. I told you not to negotiate with Richard.

He just wants to rip us off.

Call him and tell him we don't need him anymore.

I spoke with the king's cousin, everything is already settled.

I have had to pay a little more, but anyway,

I prefer to pay whoever is in charge.

So... is he already?

Yes, Patricia. And not exactly thanks to you.

Because of you we almost lost everything.

Where are you going? To my office.

Sit down. There.

You have work to do.

He prepares the documents for the sale of the Ku Log ships.

Then I want you to close Zambrano.

It's not that easy.

I know it's not easy, start today.

He liquidates all funds and property in his name.

Then divide everything into small amounts and

repatriate the money to Spain little by little.

Like Mario Conde did, but good. You understand?

Everything was already running.

When Zambrano's name began to circulate, I

took the liberty of starting the paperwork.

But we depend on a lot of legal bureaucracy.

I also want you to settle the accounts we have halfway.

It is the best. I know it will take weeks, that we will

have to look for figureheads even under the bridges.

But we have to do it at some point, right?

Very good. I can start with the Macao funds.

They expire at the end of the month. It will be easy to convert them into actions.

And that the name of Zambrano disappear from the council.

Don't tell me, Patricia, I trust you.

Because I can trust you, right?

Look, Eduardo, you need me.

Even if I erase the trail, we're still in the same boat.

We have done too many things together.

(WHISTLES) Hello.

(WHISTLES)

Malai, pearl of the Orient!

A little detail.

Thank you so much. Is the ambassador here?

busy ambassador Tell him I'm here.

Then I'll go see it. OK.

Consul, I have something for you too.

I don't want long faces today, huh?

I don't want to sound rude, but I'm not going to accept it.

Oh, sure, how can I think of bringing jewelry

to a lady like you. I pray next time.

(WHISTLES)

Little friend! Man, Patri, it's great that you're here.

Give me a hug.

Give me a hug.

Oh...

Well, well, well, well.

Don't you know what I bring?

Hey? Don't you know what this is?

The concession signed by the Minister of Transport.

The Cadenas group will build the third section of

the high-speed line between Bangkok and Chiang Mai.

Congratulations, Paco, you deserve it. Yes, the truth is that yes, huh?

Look, we've had a bad time.

But hey, in the end, the ambassador has behaved.

Because if it's for you... -The ambassador?

Yes, the ambassador. Since you didn't move your

ass, I went to dinner with him, at his house

and he promised to make some calls.

And "voila", huh?

I did what I had to do from the beginning.

Instead of trusting you two, of course.

I'm afraid, Paco, that things weren't exactly like that.

How not? In the ministry they say that if it is not for him...

He didn't make any calls, I assure you.

And then?

So, last night I was with the king's cousin,

It cost us extra, but don't worry,

Patricia's commission will go to him.

I guess you don't care.

How much are we talking about?

2%, it does not affect you, you continue to pay the same and it

has officially been thanks to the ambassador, as it should be.

Oh brilliant.

Very good. Did you know? I don't care who did it.

Paco Cadenas does the little job, leaves

Thailand and never returns in his fucking life.

And besides, now I'm going to Spain to organize everything.

Well, I'll still be back to lay the first stone.

Is that done here? Clear.

Yeah? I know of people who made a living by laying the first stones.

And it was the only one they put.

Well, I'll send you the auction, right? A little gift that I leave you here.

And don't throw it at your head. Hey, see you later.

Thank you Paco, see you later.

What the hell are you talking about?

I don't know if you understand me, Patricia.

There is no commission for you, you are out.

Finish the Zambrano thing as soon as possible and without making noise.

You have lost a lot of money, do not lose your dignity too.

And be careful not to play tricks, I'm watching you.

(Message to mobile)

Esther, come, please.

Come on.

Carlos?

No. Your lawyer is here.

(LAWYER) The extradition has been rejected.

She is going to be tried by a Thai court.

The ministry has not lifted a finger in all these

months, nobody has done anything to solve it.

(BABBLING) -The extradition is granted to... serve a sentence.

I thought we had applied for release without charge, right?

Am...

innocent.

Yes, that's what I requested.

Appealing to immunity from jurisdiction due to his

status as a direct family member of a diplomat.

Is there no possible recourse? Of course there is.

We'll exhaust all avenues, won't we?

Yes Yes. If in the end there is a sentence,

they must abide by the immunity from execution.

-And what does that mean?

-That he will serve his sentence in Spanish territory.

-In a jail in Spain? Not in any way.

We are not going to allow it to go to trial.

-It will be difficult for the press not to find out

and turn this into a show.

The daughter of an ambassador accused of drug trafficking...

Because?

Why drug trafficking? Why don't I consume?

In Thailand, the Law makes no difference between trafficking and consumption.

Neither between hard or soft drugs.

Sometimes the penalty is the same for a couple of grams or for 50 kilos.

-I'm dead.

Daughter, Esther, listen to me. Listen to me.

Listen to me.

I will do everything possible, I will go to the Zarzuela if

necessary, but I will not allow anything to happen to you.

No...

If they put me back in jail, I'm dead.

It doesn't matter if they give me five months or five years, it doesn't matter.

Because I'm not going to resist it.

He has achieved it.

Why have you moved up the date?

You told us that we couldn't expect news so soon.

-These are the usual deadlines,

but suddenly the judge brought forward the decision, I don't know.

Do you think you have received pressure?

She is the ambassador's daughter, it is not an easy matter.

But I sure do.

What do you mean, pressures from Spain?

Don't know!

Right now that it seems that we are achieving

something, it cannot be a coincidence.

(ESTHER CRIES)

Is there something we can do?

Are you a believer?

-Ambassador, I'm sorry.

The Ministries of the Interior and Public Health have released

a statement. If there is something that is in my hand...

Check that my phone line is secure, I

have to make official calls. Mister.

I'm going to talk to Zarzuela.

His line is safe,

but I'll check again anyway.

I'm so sorry, ambassador, I just found out.

The attitude of the Thai government deserves a strong response.

Denying extradition makes no sense.

They insult international agreements.

We may have our differences, but what is

happening to your daughter turns my stomach.

She is not to blame for anything. Indeed.

She is not to blame for anything, but someone is.

And she's going to pay.

Sooner or later, but she's going to pay.

(VARGAS) Of course we move, Luis.

It has also been a surprise for us.

The Thai government promised us a solution

and now the judge comes up with this, why?

You have allowed them to laugh at us, that has happened.

Aren't you going to file a formal protest?

-"I don't know, it's not up to me".

Are you not going to bother or raise it with the undersecretary?

I don't have time, we're going headlong, the press doesn't stop calling.

This has to be stopped.

"Calm is needed."

I would like to be calm.

I am informing you so that you know, I am going to call the Royal House.

I want to personally tell Her Majesty about it.

"Don't break protocol. Don't do it."

What do you want me to do? Let us work, dammit!

Stop making everyone in the embassy dizzy.

I know you're interrogating everyone with Veronica's help.

"Why do you insist on being a problem, Luis?"

If I'm trouble, why don't you fire me?

Right now. "A simple statement and it's over.

Why don't you kick me out?"

Because I don't even know how to tell the minister.

How am I going to dismiss an ambassador the

day they deny the extradition of his daughter?

"Everyone would think I'm accusing you of something."

Do you want me to leave you alone?

Get my daughter released and the

next day she stopped making noise,

I forget everything. I turn into a little lamb.

But as long as my daughter continues to be in danger, I'm not going to stop.

I'm going to be your fucking nightmare 24 hours a day.

Luis, I don't allow you to talk to me like that.

They're not going to do anything.

Don't be so negative, Luis.

You never have been.

You see how it has served me to be positive.

My daughter can't go back to that hell.

Not again.

You are going to save Esther.

And I'm going to help you.

I'm going home.

I want to be with her.

In the documentation of the case, there is,

in effect, the transcript of a telephone call

of the President of the Government and the Prime Minister of Thailand.

Secretary, please. No no. Yes... Yes, I have tried.

Yes, yes, sure. But...

Understand, Your Honor.

It was my daughter in Thailand.

It was my life that was about to go down the drain.

But that's a politician.

we are screwed

Ambassador.

What do you want now?

Fatima is making it very difficult for me.

Logical. One of my lawyers is helping her clear

out her accounts for me. I have money elsewhere

but at the moment I can't have it.

And why are you telling me all this?

Are you going to ask me to forget about the house?

No. I have a thing for you.

It's called "Aras", it's your name backwards.

Do you like it?

And why does he put my name here?

Because this company is yours.

You do not have to worry.

As the sole administrator there is a figurehead.

You just have to sign here and here.

I don't know why you needed a company.

What do we need for, Sara.

Now I am liquidating mine, I am reorganizing everything.

This company will be our start, first you buy

the apartment and then you rent it to us. Good.

What's happening? I do not understand any of this.

You gave me the contract for the house in both of your names.

Why don't we buy it? We need a company.

Trust me, I know what I'm doing. I don't want to get involved in anything weird.

I wouldn't make you sign something that would get you in trouble.

I don't know, but Fatima told me that you would

arrive and make me sign and then I would be lost.

It is the only way to dispose of the money.

If there is no signature, there is nothing.

(Knocks, door opens)

Roberto, please, wait outside.

-I want to talk to you. Wait outside.

No, it has to be now.

Sara, take the documents and...

You go through them calmly, okay?

Don't go in like that again. Have you been? About the extradition.

You have sent Esther to jail.

Don't accuse me of something I didn't do, okay?

Have you been, yes or no? I have not done anything.

Are you stupid or what's wrong?

You are a bastard. As?

(Door bell)

I want to see Esther.

-Immediately she announced her visit. Please wait. You can not...

What do you want?

I know about the extradition, I want to see Ester.

So that? I want to help her.

I was with her the night that happened with

her bag, when they put the drugs in her.

I want to help her.

Please.

Wait here.

Ester.

I just figured out.

There has to be something that can be done.

You can't get discouraged, huh?

I can talk to whoever she is.

I have money to grease whoever is needed, do you hear me?

They can't do this to you.

They can't do this to you.

-Thanks for coming.

Go away please.

We must try to leave the country. -What are you saying?

-To the border with Burma.

There are people who pass you to the other side.

Then we'll see what we do.

-Why have you moved the Zambrano factory?

You told me a movie and then you took it all away from there.

-I don't know if they have changed it or not, I don't deal with that.

Sometimes they change ships, but...

-You're lying to me.

What bad luck I have, right?

I don't know how I do it, but I have a magnet for liars.

I don't like being lied to.

Nothing.

-Ester. -Go away.

The Royal House is not going to do anything.

If you don't have the go-ahead from Foreign Affairs, and Foreign

Affairs won't do anything for me if you don't force them.

I guess I've earned it.

How hot.

The ministry has to help you because it is their obligation.

And because they can't let Ester be sentenced.

I hope you are right.

I swear I don't know where I have more enemies, here or in Madrid.

Vargas is only concerned that there are no scandals, for

which he is willing to let criminals continue in his position.

He doesn't give a shit what happens, as long as it doesn't splash him.

sounds familiar

They are shocked when they see it on the

news and they blame the journalists, but...

Corruption has always been there, even if we don't talk about it.

As soon as...

As soon as they release Esther,

I will stop being an ambassador.

No.

Louis, look at me.

No.

Don't let them get away with it.

Do not give up.

This fucking heat.

Will this never work or what?

What is this?

Carlos?

-Hello.
