Original subtitles

-Alberto, what is it? -Don Alberto slept with Sara?

And now he feels like an idiot,

because he lied. He's in a terrible state.

-Still talking about them? -Who else?

I gave you what you wanted

and you don't tell anybody that I live here.

-No, but Miss Patricia... -No. I'm sure that you understand.

I have plans.

-Valentín Alcocer! -Enrique Otegui!

Is that your plan? To fix your life with the Alcocer's money?

Ana wasn't enough for you? You still have to go behind my back?

I guess you bumped into Enrique?

I'm the director, don't you forget that.

-This isn't the time or place. -You stole the sketches

and let me take the blame.

I'm back at the store now and I won't stop until I expose you.

That was the plan? Work at Velvet for this? What does my father think?

Or is he doing the same thing?

You've been giving your sister details about the store behind our backs?

I'm sorry, Blanca.

Go.

So you haven't seen her since last night?

You promised me that you'd look after her.

I'll not wait one more minute.

-I'm calling the police.. -Just wait?

-Wait? -We must remain calm.

-Do you want me to stay with you? -There's no need. Good night.

You're the one who has done everything wrong right from the beginning.

You cheated on me.

-You cheated on Ana... -I said, get out.

My co-designer has disappeared. Nobody knows anything,

and Don Emilio is beside himself.

Please, I'm asking for some compassion.

-I'm going to be a father? -Don't you worry about him.

-He won't even find out. -But it's his baby.

But, Cristina, don't you love Alberto with all of your soul?

With this child you'll get him back.

If my niece is hurt, it won't matter to me who did it.

I will hold you responsible.

Ana.

What happened, dear? What happened?

What happened?

Sorry.

But, are you OK?

Forgive me.

You're back.

I'll go and tell everybody that you're back.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I didn't want things to happen this way.

I thought I'd lost you forever.

I didn't come back for you, Alberto.

I did it for myself.

-Ana, forget about Sara, please. -It's not Sara.

It's everything.

My whole life I've dreamed about being somebody I'm not.

Waiting for you to come back,

to turn me into a princess like in a fairy tale.

While you were living,

traveling, meeting other women.

My life makes no sense without you, Ana.

I love you, I swear I do.

I love you too.

-I do, too. -But I can't take it anymore, Alberto.

We're hurting each other.

We can't go on like this.

You loved me, but you also lived your life.

I didn't.

I don't want to feel sorry for myself.

I don't want to spend my life hopelessly waiting

for happiness to arrive.

Ana, you're being hasty.

Maybe not hasty enough.

Ana, I said it then, and I'll say it again now:

let's leave here, please.

You're going to be a father.

You can't disappear.

You must trust me, we're going to be happy.

Just not together.

I need to complete my life, life you've done.

-I'm sorry. -Listen to me, please.

I'm sorry.

Don't go, please.

Ana!

Where were you?

Are you OK?

-Who is it? -Lucía.

I've left home.

-But Lucía... -Can I stay here?

-Here? -Just for a little while,

until I can reorganise my life.

Please, Blanca. Now I've taken the leap, I don't want to go back.

You're the only person I can turn to.

Come, give me that suitcase.

I'll find you a room.

Thank you.

Ana?

Wait for me upstairs, Lucía. I'll be right there.

You had us worried yesterday. I thought you were responsible, Ana.

Your uncle can't take these shocks.

I know. I'm sorry, Doña Blanca.

Ana, you mustn't let your personal life interfere with your work.

Don't worry. It won't happen again.

It's over between Alberto and I.

Excuse me.

You're going to be a mother, Cristina. We're going to be parents.

-I'll be a good father, Cristina. I'll... -Víctor!

Hello.

I've come because...

I hope you don't mind,

-but you were so upset yesterday... -It was a horrible day.

Thank you for your help.

Are you pregnant?

I saw the test results.

I wasn't snooping, it was on your desk,

-you dropped them, I saw. -Víctor.

I just want you to know that I'm

an honourable man, you won't be alone.

-I'll face up to Alberto. -Víctor.

-We can get married. -Víctor!

It's not your baby.

Alberto is the father.

Good day, Clara.

Good day, Víctor.

Cristina.

Cristina. How can this be?

Don't I know who I sleep with, Victor?

I was already pregnant when I slept with you.

I put a 15 year relationship at risk for you.

Nobody asked you to.

Yesterday I thought I would be a father. Imagine the night I've spent.

-When were you thinking of telling me? -Why should I have?

I think I should go.

Víctor.

-Are you OK? -Yes, no... kind of.

I'm going to Valladolid.

-Really? -Yes, the city is not for me, Clara.

I'm better off there with my cats, my things, my mother's lamb.

I'm not used to working with women.

-Or at least with those two... -Females in heat.

Yes, yes. I know what you're saying and I understand.

Don't you worry, because those two are hardly women.

Thank you.

Have a good journey.

You know where to find us. You never know,

maybe one day I'll come and try

your mother's lamb.

But be sure to call me first. You never know...

Good bye.

Still angry?

No, Mateo. I'm not angry, I just...

If you'd disappeared, I'd have died.

I wouldn't be able to take it.

-I know that I can be... -A compulsive liar.

-No, and a little... -Immature.

-And I only think... -About yourself.

Because you'll never grow up and you like the idea of being

-a bachelor for the rest of your life. -No.

I'd be crazy to let you go.

I don't want to lose you.

Yesterday when we were looking for Ana,

I was afraid.

I don't want to feel that way, I need you by my side.

I promise you'll never catch me lying again.

I promise, I'm crazy about you.

And now you know that,

Clara Montesinos.

No, wait, wait, wait.

I was about to lose you and therefore have to live

in eternal darkness.

I want to ask you

to love me once again.

To love me once again as if it were the last time in my life and I promise...

I promise that it will always be that way.

There's so much fabric to cut.

The sooner we start, the sooner we finish

and I have too much riding on this, to fail now.

Can I help?

Well I never. Who are you?

What have you done with Lucía Márquez?

Show me your hands. What are you hiding?

Rita, Rita, please, Rita.

Everybody deserves a second chance.

Especially with a neck like that.

Play with my collection, you're done for.

It's a joke! I wouldn't do you in, she would!

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

I love working in a team!

And we're the best team.

Come on girls. We have two collections to finish in three months.

Get to work!

Don't tell Raúl that you've got the best girls.

What about the gloves?

They're almost done. They'll be ready for the rehearsal.

-My tape measure. -Don't worry,

it's going to be OK.

In the end it'll be the new girl who puts things in order.

And that sweet voice I hear?

Must be my wife.

What are all these things, husband mine?

I want the Phillipe Ray fashion show

to be a success, it's giving me a hernia.

You've complained all morning.

How can he take charge of all the shows?

So much to do, and you're grumbling already.

Thank you, boys.

Keep it up, please. I need you now more than ever.

Don't worry. I'm in it for the long haul. I know today's my last day alive.

Lucía, a letter arrived for you.

Who's the lover, then?

If only Luisa wrote to me as much as people write to you,

we'd be married by now.

But it's not getting me down. There's no stopping me with women.

Who is it, then?

It's nothing.

Excuse me, I'll see you in the workshop.

She's a mysterious one.

She told me that they're from her father.

He wants to contact her, but she doesn't want him in the picture.

Life's so complicated, isn't it?

Yes, it is. I'll see you later, I have to go.

-So do we, Raúl's waiting for us. -Come on, Cousin. I'll help you.

Come on.

Why the smile?

Excuse me for enjoying my job, but somebody has to, dear.

Look at yourself: neurotic, controlling,

drama queen. Just like me in the old days.

Happy face, come on. Just look how this cape has turned out.

And the dress, it's perfect.

And those adjustments aren't half bad. Not bad at all.

It needs ironing. Congratulations to the winners.

-Lucía! Where's Lucía? -Here, Don Raúl.

"Don Raúl".

No more "Don Raúl". Don't call me that again, Don, Don, Don.

It makes me sound old.

Doña Blanca likes it. Doña Blanca!

Yes, Don Raúl?

Come here, please,

What do you think of this dress?

It's perfectly executed.

She loves it.

Congratulations, Lucía. You did a great job.

Phillipe, this means that it'll be a success.

Raúl, stop making me nervous.

You're so jumpy.

Let's go and see the mighty boss. We'll explain it all.

Then the music stops and

Raúl de la Riva, Phillipe Ray.

Two collections that melt into one.

An amazing result, never before seen at Velvet, or the rest of the country.

Well,

fabulous, isn't it? What do you think?

Very good work, Raúl. Just marvellous.

You keep outdoing yourself.

It's good.

I like the lighting throughout the collection.

I'm sure it will work.

In that case we need to have a meeting with the lighting director.

-Mateo will do it. -What?

Talk to him about everything from now on.

I'm too busy with the press and clients.

You won't supervise the final details?

I trust Mateo.

You don't need me.

Mateo, take care of it.

Excuse me, I have a personal matter to attend to.

Great, guys. Don't worry, Ana,

I'll organise a meeting about the lighting.

Raúl: bravo, bravo, bravo.

Thank you.

-What was all that about? -Nothing.

I'm busy. A man's coming to discuss the annulment.

A man? You're a mystery to me recently, Alberto.

It's no mystery, Mateo.

My decision to leave my wife stands,

whether I'm with Ana or not.

How is this man going to help you?

Alberto, your wife is pregnant.

You've been asking her for an annulment for seven months.

Is he a magician?

It's none of your business, Mateo.

Don Alberto, your visitor is here.

Let him through, please, Clara.

Good day, Mr. Barbé. Can I offer you a drink?

These situations are delicate, so I'd prefer not to stay too long.

Of course, take a seat.

You have the money?

I'd like to see the document first.

Now I'm a single man?

Well, once I've counted the money.

Go ahead.

Now I can congratulate you on being single.

Thank you.

Shopping?

You must be the only one who has time to test the perfumes.

You could always buy me one, you've been stingy recently.

Me, stingy? I give you presents every day.

What have you given me since we've been together?

Is this not enough? You're becoming very materialistic, Mateo.

We've been together for over a year, and you've never given me anything.

Not even a box of sweets. Nothing.

In that case, tonight I'll give you the surprise of your life. Keys?

Is desert included?

I like the one on the left.

Ten o'clock.

Cristina.

-Bárbara, what are you doing here? -We have a meeting with Valentín.

-Do we? -Yes, why do you think we're here?

I don't know, we always seem to have so many things to do.

I was supposed to show him the new ring collection but...

I can't have empty hands.

Don't worry,

Cristina and I will handle it.

But it doesn't mean that you can push me out.

Please, you're everything to me.

You're getting on well.

If you're going to discuss that, I'd better leave.

We spent the night together, again.

There's nothing like jealousy to reignite the flame.

He's at my service, my slave. In every sense.

I'm exhausted.

Bárbara, he's my brother. I don't want details.

Cristina, your bump is twisted.

Bárbara, this is absurd. I have a cushion underneath my dress.

I'm three months gone, I have no bump. What am I doing?

That's normal in new mothers, remember me?

When I was pregnant with Lourdes, I didn't show for five months.

You're six months pregnant, anyway. Let's get this right.

There. Cheer up. Good luck with your meeting with Valentín.

Ciao, ciao.

I don't know why you don't like it, I think--

It's not as discreet as the other.

-But I'd close the show... -Hello everybody.

Hello.

-What a ring! -Nothing is too much for...my future wife.

No!

Seeing is believing. You kept that very quiet.

I can be very discreet.

That's definitely one of your virtues.

When's the big day?

Well...

As soon as possible. We've already started preparations.

There's nothing stopping us.

-Right, my love? -Yes, petal.

Congratulations, Patricia.

-Valentín! -Thank you.

Congratulations! You seem very in love.

I hope we will be as happy as Bárbara and you.

-How many years have you been married? -Three! Five years together.

Although it's like yesterday.

We'll have to take notes for the future.

Indeed.

How's everything going here? Everything planned for the show?

Swimmingly.

I must confess,

I had my reserves about becoming involved in

the family business and this project,

but Velvet has given me much more than I could ever have hoped for.

My love.

Yes, you've got a real gem there.

Excuse the pun.

No, no, I've got a real gem.

-Can you update me, please? -Of course.

Rita, come here. Too much cleavage?

No, It looks perfect. Like it was the seventh time you asked.

But if we take it in here.

-How are the preparations going? -She's driving me crazy. Do something.

I just want it to be perfect. After waiting so long, I can't fail now.

You'll see, dear. All artists... painters,

musicians, writers, designers,

can take an age to finish a work

and when they do, what happens? Then it belongs to the public.

This is a finished piece, and the public are out there

waiting to see it. Don't make them wait any longer.

-Thank you. -Don Mateo is

arranging the lights. It's looking marvellous.

I wish Alberto was more involved.

Ana,

it was you that made the decision, now's not the moment for regrets.

Nobody moves forward by looking backwards.

This time tomorrow, the show will be about to start.

My dance teacher says

that you have to know how to enjoy

every step that you take.

Will you grant me a few steps, please?

That woman's changed your life.

I want dance lessons too.

With Pedro and his snake hips.

No.

Rita, no. No way.

I like your husband and his cousin,

but my dance classes are mine. Both my teacher

and I know what our stance on the

Infantes is.

Not again!

-It's nice to see him happy. -Yes.

I wish I were too.

I can't believe that he won't be by my side

at one of the most important days of my life.

Ana.

I know that I broke it off but,

-I hope I wasn't mistaken. -It'll be OK, you'll see.

-Is the stage ready? -All under control, Doña Blanca.

Pedro and Jonás have been setting it up for a while

and we've arranged the lighting with Mateo.

Mr. de la Riva is stressed and won't leave anything until the last minute.

What about you?

How are you?

-Me? -Yes.

Excuse me saying, Doña Blanca, but for some time now

I've been missing something... something sort of light,

that you used to have and...

Many months of hard work, Don Emilio.

I hope it's just work, and not some sort of sadness

lying beneath the surface.

As you know, I'm not at my best.

It's not easy to regain high spirits.

I'm hardly a fine example but,

here I am.

Doña Blanca, I know that you and I

have had our differences on occasions, but

I wouldn't want for you to lose trust in me.

Thank you, Don Emilio.

See you later.

Congratulations.

I can tell that you're used to working against the clock.

It had to turn out well, if not it wouldn't be Velvet.

Will you come to the show?

Of course. We wouldn't miss it for the world.

But we'll leave early, as in the morning we're flying to Nice.

-Yes, that's true. -Mr. Alcocer.

Valentín, please call me Valentín. We're going to be family after all.

Excuse me?

-Your sister and I... -We're getting married.

Congratulations.

What did you want?

Nothing. It's not important. We can talk another time.

Are going to the gynaecologist later?

Yes.

I'll come and we can talk.

What is it, my love?

Nothing.

It's not important.

Are you worried about the show tomorrow?

No, I've just been with Ana and Don Emilio in the workshop

and it all looks amazing.

So?

It's just that...

I got my period again.

But Rita,

I said that it wasn't going to be easy.

I know.

You can't just order it, like in the Pausa.

I was getting excited

and I didn't want to say anything, Pedro,

but I was a few days late

and I thought that,

that you and I...

But no.

Is my princess sad?

-We can try again right now if you want. -Pedro,

I'm scared.

Scared of what?

That I can't have children.

Maybe I'm barren!

Remember my Auntie Rosita?

She spent her whole life thinking that she was pregnant every month

and she never did have children.

Rita Montesinos Martín.

What?

Don't talk rubbish.

You're my wife,

and the mother of my children.

Don't talk rubbish anymore, please.

What would I do without you?

And me without you?

I'm so happy, Alberto.

We won't believe it when we see it's face.

Excuse me for being happy, Alberto.

-I'm happy, too. -You wouldn't know it.

You've been unrecognisable for months.

I know it's over with Ana.

It's got nothing to do with it.

I think it does.

Alberto, I'm willing to forgive,

especially as there's a baby on the way.

Like Enrique and Bárbara,

-we could be like them. -Them?

That's your model for happiness?

We're going to be parents, Alberto.

It would be convenient to be together.

For you. Convenient for you.

Here.

-What's this? -The annulment.

I wanted to give it to you before, but there were a lot of people.

How can you be so insensitive?

Have you no shame? Giving me this here and now?

How did you get this?

The Otegui's taught me that money can buy you anything.

You're a son of a bitch, Alberto. I'm having your child!

And I'll take care of it, but not you.

-I don't love you. -I'm going to finish that bitch.

Watch your mouth.

Go. Go!

Get out!

Madam, are you OK? Please come with me. Sit down.

Breathe.

At such an advanced stage you should avoid tension.

Yes, I know.

-Could I make a phone call please? -Of course.

Thank you.

Could I have a glass of water?

Hello, is that El Crónica?

It's Cristina Otegui.

I have an exclusive for your society pages.

One, two, cha cha cha. Two, three, cha cha cha.

Two, three, cha cha cha. Two, three. Very good.

Good evening.

-Always so punctual, Don Emilio. -I've even done my homework.

That's why you're my best student.

But don't show off, the others will lose heart.

-Please, Inés, please. -Shall we?

-Let's go. -Let's begin the class.

Everybody in position. Everybody ready?

Feel the rhythm.

Two, three, cha cha cha. Two, three, cha cha cha. Two, three.

On to the next, girls move round.

And repeat.

One.

Two.

Cha, cha, cha. Two, three, cha cha cha.

Two, three, cha cha cha.

That's how to dance. Very, very good class. Thank you.

Inés, I appreciate your infinite patience with me.

See you next class.

Emilio!

-You're leaving? -I have to get up early.

Tomorrow is the big fashion show.

Shows, shows and more shows.

What can I do to have a drink with you

after class?

Inés, I appreciate the gesture, I really do.

But I'm sure you have much better things to do,

than to waste your time on an old man like me.

You're not the one who's wooing me, it's me that's inviting you for a drink.

Unless you don't care for my company.

In which case, I'll have to take no for an answer.

I wouldn't like to lose my best student

for being insistent.

Shall we?

I'll get changed.

You're so annoying, Cousin. Rita shouldn't be alone today.

And now she's, well she's really upset.

But she told you to come right away.

Tonight Margarita wanted to read, and not...

believe me, I know all about it.

Two vermouth's.

You're like a broken record. Always on about the same thing.

Rita's having some days that women have.

She's got her period?

Thank me then, you managed to escape it.

That's why you were angry this morning.

It's not work, it's Margarita.

No, it is to do with work. I'm absolutely worn out.

Every year there's a show. Every show, seven separate problems...

-I'm tired, Cousin. Tired. -Of what?

Tired of not being valued.

The fool from Porrillos never gets promoted.

I'm very happy with my work post.

Are we discussing you or me?

I want to have a family,

to give them a good life. I want my children to be proud of me.

I don't understand, but if you want a change,

fight for that change.

Become a dressmaker. I can show you.

I can't, Cousin. You know that I'm afraid of needles.

But I am going to talk to Don Emilio tomorrow.

I'll tell him, "Don Emilio, I want this".

Why wait for tomorrow. He's just come in the door.

Look at him with the dance teacher,

that's why he's so happy.

Not one word. I must plan my speech.

-Don Emilio! What are you doing here? -Gentlemen.

Good evening, teacher.

Sorry for the scandal again.

That was ages ago. It's a shame you never came back, having paid

the registration.

You know, the Infantes and perseverance

-just don't go... -I'm very persistent,

I learn very quickly.

Depends on what you call quickly.

We're going because tomorrow we have to go to work.

-Yes. -Pedrito.

-Have fun. -Thank you.

They look like good boys, but they're insatiable

when it comes to testing my patience.

Just like me, with you.

A mint julep, then?

I'm sorry, Miss, but my loyalty lies with chinchón.

Make that two.

I'm going. Do you need anything?

Rest up, Mateo.

Haven't you done enough work for today?

It has to be perfect.

Why don't you come for dinner at my place?

I want to get this done for tomorrow.

You said that yesterday, the day before,

the day before that. Look at me, Alberto.

You've tortured yourself every day for three months.

Where's my friend? I don't know how to behave around you.

-I'm here. -Then come for dinner.

You can't say no. Let's go!

Aren't you having dinner with Clara?

It's not a formal dinner, just the two of us. I'm so late.

She'll be mad. I need you.

-Let's go. -Are you sure?

Of course, she'll be happy.

I thought I was going to have to dine alone.

Hello, Clara.

Don Alberto, what a surprise.

-We brought this. -Thank you.

Mateo, can I talk to you. Alone.

Yes, go on in.

-No, wait. It's better that you stay here. -Yes.

-I'll kill you. -He was all by himself. What could I do?

Ignore him? Mateo, it was supposed to be our night.

It will be. Just later.

-We'll see. -Look at him.

Poor thing. He's a broken man.

-You're dressed as a sexy chef? -Mateo.

Look, three months have gone by.

-Poor thing. -What about Ana?

-He started the whole thing. -He was trying to help a friend.

I'd kill you if I could.

Bring me some clothes, at least.

No.

Give me a minute.

Raúl! Why are you still here? I thought you'd gone a long time ago.

At least I'm occupied here.

If I go home I'll be tossing and turning all night.

My mother and father are coming tomorrow.

As it's such a prestigious event, they're going to come.

It's the first show they've been to.

You have no idea what my father's like, Ana.

I can't believe it.

All my life waiting for this, and now I don't know if I want it to happen.

Will they like it?

What if they're embarrassed?

That's fear talking, it's not Raúl de la Riva.

Raúl de la Riva is the biggest coward that you'll set eyes on.

-I don't believe you. -It's true, Ana.

It's much easier to run away to Paris, than to face your father.

Or to throw yourself into your work,

rather than fight for love.

I've suffered a lot, too.

You are a coward then.

But the second biggest, because first prize goes to me.

-You're still here? -We'll be here for a while.

Shouldn't you get some rest?

If we weren't enough already!

-What are you doing here? -I couldn't sleep.

-That makes two of us. -Four.

My first show, how nerve wracking.

I can't believe it.

Very good work, Lucía.

It's true.

-Your hands are worth gold. -Come on now.

Well, they've got nothing on mine, but...

Take no notice. Compliments from her are far and few between.

You'd think that after years of this, I wouldn't get so nervous

in the days running up to it.

It's the first time I've been accompanied home.

It makes me feel old.

Don't be silly, Don Emilio.

Many younger men would kill for your good spirits and energy.

I assure you, if I had what a younger man has in his youth,

we wouldn't be going home now.

What a shame I didn't meet you then.

It's been a lovely evening, it's time to go.

Tomorrow's the show, and there's still a lot to do.

Your work must be incredible. All those models and rich clients.

I can't complain, but to tell the truth,

in there are many magnificent boys and girls who

give their all day after day so that everything goes well.

That's what motivates me and the reason I haven't yet retired.

I could listen to you for hours.

It's difficult finding somebody you feel like that about.

Inés, one day,

when you least expect it, they appear.

A person, no, not a person. The person.

That's when the music starts again.

The feet start to glide across the floor

and the dance continues.

They'll appear, I promise.

My life is complicated.

I didn't mean to be tactless.

Don't you worry, Don Emilio. I'm a big girl.

I'm in no doubt of that.

Class tomorrow, right?

Don't stand me up for your show.

Plus, I'm going to show you some new steps.

I'll be there.

I mean it, you should have seen my Auntie Angustias

embarrassing me in front of everybody.

-I'd pay to see that. -No, you wouldn't. I promise you!

Poor Clarita.

Poor you, poor you.

It was a wonderful dinner, Clara.

-You're leaving already? -Yes.

Thank you.

Sorry for ruining your evening.

No, of course not. We had a great time.

Congratulations.

It's not easy, but you've managed it.

What luck to grow old next to the person you love.

Come on, Alberto,

melancholy doesn't suit you.

No, Mateo. I mean it. That's what I wanted and I didn't manage it.

It's a tough time, that's all.

-It's not easy for Ana either. -No Clara.

No, Mateo. Clara's right.

Ana's probably having a tough time,

but she was the one who ended this relationship.

Not me.

See you tomorrow.

What was that comment for?

It just seemed that only one person was having a tough time

and, excuse me for saying, but Ana's the worst off.

She has to watch Doña Cristina parading her bump around the store

and accept that while he declared his love,

Alberto was sleeping with Airsa's man-eater.

Why are you laughing?

-You really are a man-eater. -Me?

Compared to her, I'm an amateur.

-Where's my present? -We weren't talking about that.

There's no present?

Yes, you do. But you don't deserve it.

Maybe you do, a little.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

-Good night, girls. -Good night.

Thank you for letting me be a part of this, Ana.

Thank you, you've helped me so much.

What is it?

-Nothing, I... -Rita.

It's just been a while since Pedro and I got married

and well,

I want to have a baby.

That's wonderful, Rita.

Yes, but it's not

happening and,

this month I thought I'd have some good news to give you all.

Because I was late,

but

today I got my period.

Rita,

you have to remain calm.

These things happen when you least expect them. You'll see.

But what if I can't, Ana? If I can't have children?

No, no, no. I don't want to hear that.

We're very tired. These last few months we've had lots of work.

Don't give up.

I'm the one who cries all the time!

Not you.

You're right.

Come on, Phillipe. Tomorrow's going to be a big day.

I'm so nervous!

Don't be silly. I'll come by for you at eight o'clock,

it's so late you might oversleep.

-Are you OK? -Yes. Thank you.

So much.

Get some rest.

You too.

-See you tomorrow. -See you tomorrow.

Ready for the big day?

What is it?

I'm so afraid.

Afraid? Afraid of what?

You've been working like mad.

Whatever happens,

I want you to know that I'll always be so proud of you.

I just can't believe that Alberto and I are so distant.

I miss him.

Tomorrow your dream will come true.

Your dream.

Promise me that you'll enjoy it.

Promise me.

Now.

Now get some rest.

Good grief. Good grief! Pedro!

-What? -We've overslept!

We've what?

Wake up! The one time I ask you to wake me.

The alarm didn't go off and you...

-We had such a night that... -Don't shirk it off.

You can complain later. It's going to be a long day!

For Phillipe Ray.

I know, I... good morning.

She'll still be sound asleep.

-Sorry, sorry... -You were supposed to come for me.

It's a good job we know each other.

-Are you ready? -Yes.

-It'll be the best day of your life, Ana. -And I'm going to enjoy it, let's go!

-I'm so nervous! -You'll see, it'll all turn out OK.

What's all that?

I don't know. Let's go and see.

What's going on?

All these people?

Excuse me, are you Ana Rivera?

Are you Phillipe Ray?

-Are you? -Are you Alberto Márquez's lover?

What's happening?

-All those people? -I don't know, Rita. I don't know!

-They know everything. -Yes, yes. What now?

-Leave my friend alone! -Are you Ana Rivera's friend?

-Did you know about her affair? -I won't say anything!

Let's go.

It'll all be OK, you'll see. Don't worry, Ana.

Ana Rivera, Alberto Márquez's lover.

What vultures.

No, Rita, no.

Ana and Alberto knew exactly what they were doing when it all started.

We broke up months ago.

Whoever sold this wants to bring Phillipe Ray down.

To bring us down, Ana. It's a joint collection. Joint!

Why? What does this have to do with the show?

Because it has nothing to do with fashion, only scandal.

Nobody will want to wear a mistress's dress.

Ana, can I see you in my office please?

Of course.

Let's go.

I've spoken to my contacts and it was an anonymous call.

Anonymous? Alberto, it was Cristina. Darn...

Ana.

Yesterday I did the annulment

and she went crazy.

I'm sure it was her, but there's no proof.

I didn't know that you were still going to do it.

You annulled the marriage?

Yes.

Am I interrupting?

No, we were just talking about you.

About me? Or the biggest cheater in Madrid?

-Look, Cristina, I didn't... -I'll only ask you once:

Did you speak to the press?

You've no shame. This is the last straw.

The last straw is you mixing personal with professional.

It's not just my collection,

it's supposed to feed all of Velvet's families.

I'm not taking good Samaritan lessons from you

when everybody knows that you've destroyed a family.

Shut up!

Either we cancel the show, or we continue.

You're a perfect target for the press.

It's your collection, you decide.

We go ahead.

You got her good.

-I don't know what you mean. -Don't you?

I have a friend at El Crónica.

The same one who you called to give the exclusive to.

Alberto managed to annul our marriage,

of course I'm going after her.

Are you crazy?

You want to bring us down? We're not only showing the collection today,

but the jewellery too.

It's already done, Enrique, so don't lecture me.

As you wish. Let's see if you're so clear with Alcocer.

What's this?

You're going to have to ask your brother, Patricia.

Good morning, Valentín.

Let me say, that is shameful.

Cristina, I'm sorry about everything, but our jewellery business

is associated with aristocracy and we can't

be seen to be involved in such a scandal as this.

We've decided that our jewellery collection

won't accompany Phillipe Ray.

What? That's crazy. The whole of Madrid is invited.

Who will also be at our wedding.

I won't allow for my reputation to be ruined.

-Our reputation. -Yes.

How could we forget the wedding.

I'm sorry, Cristina, but this wasn't part of the deal.

With all due respect, Valentín,

if we don't show the collection today, we can't put it on sale.

A lot of money is at play, and this will cost us even more.

-You heard, Enrique. -Wait, Patricia.

Maybe Enrique is right and we shouldn't delay the sale of the collection.

Let's go ahead with our arrangement,

but only if our jewellery is to be

the protagonists of the whole show.

But there's no time to organise it.

Enrique, I won't back down on this.

Imagine my mother if the press talks about the circumstances,

and not the collection, please!

You heard.

Jewellery collection, but as the only protagonist of the show.

Discus it with Alberto.

It's not very serious to change our plans

at such short notice.

Not serious?

What's not serious is you convincing Valentín

to be a part of the store, and now

we have to face this.

-Shall we go? -Yes.

Here, in case you want to take a look.

I won't be making a statement, not to anybody.

I'll face them all at the show.

Are you sure you want to do this?

If you're worried that the store will suffer...

I never said that. I'll support Phillipe Ray to the end.

What about Ana?

Will you support her too?

I don't recognise you. You're like a different person.

I am a different person.

You made it clear, Ana.

You want a fulfilled life, like mine.

But my life was fulfilled, because you were in it.

I see that you understand,

don't you?

Want to go ahead with the show?

Then you'd better get back to work. There's still a lot to do.

Miss Rivera, please. Can I ask you a question?

When did your relationship start?

Please answer my question, it'll only take a minute.

You can't be here. This is a reserved space. Please go.

I'm simply doing my job.

Your job. Get out or I'll call security. Out!

OK?

-Thank you. -How are you doing?

Not good, I won't lie. I've spoken to Alberto, it's so difficult.

Do you still love him?

This might be it then, dear. Welcome to the club.

Ana,

you've done a lot of fighting to get here.

Tonight you can't, nor should you, think about anybody else.

This night is about you.

You've earned it. Very well done, by the way.

Thank you.

How does it look?

It looks like those drinks from last night are weighing you down, right Pedro?

Don't start with that, Don Emilio. I've put the stage up,

I've loaded, unloaded and as I've done all that,

maybe I could deal with the supply papers.

The suppliers are my responsibility, as you know.

Yes, but I could do it. I'm saying it's something that I...

I've seen you do it loads of times,

and don't I deserve some responsibility?

Responsibility? You just want to get out of cleaning the store room.

It's probably in a terrible state.

No, no, no. I don't mean that, Don Emilio.

Pedro, Pedro. I know what you're getting at.

I'm very familiar with it.

-With what? The store room? -The store...

Pedro, we're wasting time. When you've finished all this,

please go and tidy the store room.

No, Don Emilio.

No, this is going to annoy you, because

it's going to be an annoyance... when I say annoy, I mean...

every time.

How long have I worked here?

Ten years.

Loading and unloading boxes.

Nobody can say that I'm a bad worker, and you don't.

But just answer one question:

will it always be like this?

Because I don't...

Pedro. Pedro this isn't the best day

to ask for a complaints form to fill in.

I honestly don't know what that means.

But just one more minute.

Remember when my son Manolito left?

He was happy because he thought that,

that his father had a very important job.

And look, I'm...

I'm nothing and that's embarrassing.

Very embarrassing to tell your son.

If you can't help me improve,

I'll have to look for another job.

Because I need to improve, not for me, but for my family.

So that my children are as proud of me,

as Ana is of you.

I imagine that you'll retire one day.

Pedro.

Finish that, for now,

tidy the store room and then we'll talk.

Cristina! Thank goodness, I was worried.

-Have you brought the pieces? -No, Raúl.

The Alcocer's have cancelled their participation in the show.

-There will be no jewellery tonight. -What?

They won't be associated with the scandal.

I did all I could to convince

-Valentín but there's no way. -I'm sure.

-I'm sure you did. -Look little lady,

seeing as all of this is your fault,

you must suffer the consequences.

It was you, Cristina. You won't bring me down.

The show will be a success, with or without jewellery.

I can see the headlines tomorrow:

"Excellent collection by Alberto Márquez's slut."

-But... -Ladies!

I won't allow shouting in here.

Nor anything that takes the limelight off

the models in the show.

Sorry, you're right.

Yes, Little Miss Perfect.

That's enough, Cristina!

Get out of here.

Get out, now.

Back to work.

Apologies, Don Alberto, the telephone won't stop.

That's to be expected. Many cancellations?

No, the opposite. More people want to come.

The controversy has increased interest.

This is Spain; scandal sells. Thank you, Clara.

-Are you OK? -Yes, don't worry.

Mateo, I'll take care of the press...

but we can't let the paparazzi in.

-Yes. -Tonight, fashion is the protagonist.

I want to protect Ana.

Ana can handle this, Alberto.

I doubt it, Mateo. The public can be very cruel.

But she wants to go ahead, so that's what will happen.

I'll be waiting.

It's more full than ever... It's going to be OK after all.

Relax... enjoy the moment.

I'm going to let Ana and Raúl know.

I'll handle public relations.

-Did you see them? Have they come? -Who?

-My parents, Mateo. My parents! -No, not here yet.

-Oh my God. -Calm down, Raúl.

It's my recurring nightmare:

I turn up to a party fully dressed.

You mean naked.

No, fully dressed. It's a nudist party.

Raúl, calm down. Your father will be proud of you, you'll see.

Don't be tacky, please. Tell me if they arrive.

Hello, how's it going? Hello.

Raúl... Raúl.

-Sorry, I'm busy at the moment. -But... Raúl.

I wanted to wish you good luck. Lots of people have come.

Yes. Things didn't go according to plan for you.

What?

It was you.

Ana told you that, right?

No.

Ana didn't tell me.

Ana is a lady. Not like you.

-No, Raúl, wait. -Cristina,

you wanted revenge.

And you didn't care about my collection,

or bringing me down with it.

Just like your wedding day.

The only thing in the world you care about is yourself.

No, but Raúl...

Welcome. Your seats are just here, this row.

Victoria, you're beautiful.

Which is my seat?

What is it?

Remember me?

Michelle...

-What are you doing here? -My boss sent me.

The director of Paris Match wanted the exclusive,

especially with the Phillipe Ray scandal.

Of course.

Long time no see!

-The moustache looks good. -I know.

-How long has it been, Mateíto? Ten years? -Seven.

-Seven? Wow. -We're getting old.

Don't get sentimental.

Where's my seat?

Press over there.

Thank you.

I didn't expect you.

No wonder... how shameful, Alberto!

It's not the best time to discuss that.

I find it disrespectful of you

to remove your pieces at the last minute.

Really?

We're getting married soon, all eyes are on us.

Always thinking about yourself.

Let's go. Good luck, Alberto.

-Where's Ana? -She's checking a model.

-She's beside herself. -That's normal.

Everybody's here. We must all support her.

It's going to be a success. Don Raúl, they're looking for you.

Who is?

Mum!

You look beautiful.

Thank you, son. It's all so beautiful. So many people.

I hope they're still there when it's over.

I suppose father didn't come.

-Yes, he did. -You can't be serious!

He's out there sat down. Shall I call him?

No! No, no, no, no, no. I still need to do a few things.

Afterwards.

Son,

I'm so very proud of you.

Go to your seat, it's going to start.

-It's starting. Good luck, my dear. -Thanks, mum.

-I love you, son. -I love you too.

Me too.

You're perfect, let's go.

Hello Ana.

-You look beautiful. -Oh Raúl,

I don't know... I have shivers running up and down my spine.

First night nerves. When you don't have them, you're done for.

Know what the best thing is? Having my teacher here.

No, your friend.

Ready to dazzle them?

Ready.

-Let's go then. -Let's go.

Welcome to Velvet.

The new collection is especially controversial this year...

Never before have two fashion geniuses united

to work on one collection.

I ask you to open your minds,

and put all prejudices aside.

What you are about to see is cutting edge,

and you may not be prepared for it.

But I assure you that when you leave, you'll be proud to have witnessed

an historical evening.

Historical because two incomparable talents are united.

One the one side,

an acclaimed genius: Raúl de la Riva.

Designing since he was small,

from the first moment he could hold a pencil.

He did have to leave Spain because...

What did you do, Cristina?

When I heard about the annulment, it was all that I could do.

What a brave son of a bitch.

I'll bring that bitch down, just like she's done to me.

That's all very well. But you must be more careful, Cristina.

You almost lost the store's jewellery project,

and without that, you're out of the game.

They'll kick you out of Velvet.

Revenge is a plate best served cold.

I won't be able to take it.

The scandal has certainly created excitement.

So... it might be your great failure, or your great victory.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you: Night and Day, by Riva and Ray.

Are you OK?

-Yes. -Really?

Bravo, bravo.

They liked it.

Bravo.

-Let's go! -Let's go.

Yes! They liked it!

Uncle! They liked it!

I knew it, I knew it.

-Thank you. -I knew it, dear.

-Thank you, I'm going to celebrate. -Very good.

Pedro, Pedro. Pedro, congratulations. A lot of this is down to you.

Thank you very much, Don Emilio. But I...

Know what, Pedro? I'm starting to ask myself...

what retired life would be like.

Excuse me. I didn't... if it's because of what I said earlier...

I'll have to do it someday. Not right now, not right now.

But when I do, I don't think there's anybody better than you

to take my place. As long as

you're willing to learn everything that you need to.

I'll learn.

And I'll have the best teacher!

Thank you.

Ana Rivera,

it's time to present Phillipe Ray.

Let's go.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you: Phillipe Ray!

I considered you a good person, Cristina. You disgust me.

I'm like this because of you, Alberto!

I heard the clients.

They're always right. You've always told me that.

I bet everything on Phillipe Ray, and I lost.

Ana, wait...

Dead, Rita. Dead as a doornail.

We're very upset.

You didn't really like him either, mum.

No, upset about the inheritance.

-The press keep calling. -My uncle is dead.

I'm going to the funeral tomorrow.

I told you this was strictly work.

And I'm telling you that the night is still young.

Shouldn't the bride choose her own...

We must erase the scandal, not create a new one.

I can't stand him or his mother. I'm sick of pretending.

I don't know why I ever created Phillipe Ray.

He's all we have left.

What the hell is going on here?

Velvet's diamond in the rough this year is Phillipe Ray.

I want to buy the store.

You have three days.
