Thank you.

I'm here today to tell you that life is an adventure.

It's an adventure that hides behind the look of others.

For many years, when reporting the news on my channel,

I was able to see the injustice present in our country.

So, I had to review the true meaning of journalism. Is this journalism?

Reporting the same news every day?

So, I thought I had to take a leap and get in touch with the unknown,

the mysterious.

Behind that leap, there is the unknown, the unexplored, mystery.

And I took the leap.

My daughter also took the leap, without considering the consequences.

And my husband...

involved our whole family,

because power is not built from ego, money or the media.

It is built from a look.

I see trust in your eyes.

And that is essential, because there is nothing without trust.

There is no power, no leadership, nothing.

We need to rise, we need to stand up and make this country

what it should always have been: a great country.

A great country...

with real ambitions.

As real as your looks towards me.

Thank you for being here today, and for always showing me...

such warmth.

Thank you.

We'll start the Q&A, then. Do you agree? Madam Deputy?

-Whenever you like. -Very well.

Be careful, these students can be harsh.

They can ask whatever they want.

Anything?

Anything, except for my age. Just kidding.

All right. Let's start.

Once you've asked your question, pass the mike to someone else.

-Go ahead. -Hello.

What's your opinion on your daughter's attitude in Reina's show?

She went through a very difficult experience.

It has to do with the leap we were talking about earlier.

You can't go through those experiences

without physical and emotional consequences.

Next, please.

Did you know Alfredo Santa Cruz, your husband,

would plead guilty to the murder of Larisa Torres?

3 YEARS EARLIER

Breaking news: Rosario Santa Cruz,

a reporter from this channel and a dear colleague,

has been just released.

We're live from her house.

-Please, guys, some respect. -How is your daughter?

Did you bang her?

What's it to you?

"What's it to you?" I'm asking you. Did you bang her or not?

Does anything change if I did?

I'm asking a question. I'm speaking nicely.

I'm not one of those hillbillies you're used to dealing with.

And if you blended in with them, it was because I ordered you to.

So, don't treat me like one, okay?

Yes, I fucked her.

"I fucked her"? You're funny, aren't you?

Why do you talk like that? I saved your life. I took you out of there.

Do you know where you'd be now? Imprisoned, fucked by some criminal.

Talk to me properly, okay? I'm not one of them.

She looked for me. I liked her, fucked her.

Rest assured, you're not one of those guys.

You're morbid.

You like mud, but you don't like to get muddy.

You need someone to get dirty for you.

How do you think you get things, Franco?

Filming videos and taking photos?

How much did it cost to get information out of Larisa? How many videos?

You think your way is better than mine. Is that it?

I needed and still do for Rosario to know that I'll protect her. Just like Larisa.

One question, I just remembered. Who saved Larisa?

You or me?

Right, my bad. I apologize while you have everything under control. You do, right?

Yes.

I need some money. How about that?

Half of it is marked, the other half I need to talk to my people. Give me time.

Two things. First, I have nowhere to go.

-Second, I need money to get around. -There was always money.

But we're no longer with those paupers, we're with a different kind of people.

Understand that with ingenuity and relaxation,

we could end up like Carbone.

-Right. Is that all? -Yes, it is.

-Okay, cheers. -Cheers.

I don't think this is the right time to talk about it.

It will never be the right time, Alfredo. You need to tell her the truth.

Please act like a devoted mother and make something to eat.

The more time that passes, the worse it will be.

They'll sell that information.

Bernal will manipulate us. Tell her the truth. She loves you.

I don't matter. I support you, I'll play offended, whatever's necessary.

-I feel ashamed. I don't think I can. -You are a hero to her.

We can't strip her of the only thing that supports her.

My reputation is on the floor.

Isabel, she's much better than us.

I can't. Believe me, I can't. I won't be able to.

I don't think you have any idea about what is at stake here.

We're going to lose much more than just Rosario's love.

Do you know what?

Rosario will learn of your relationship with Larisa from you, Alfredo.

You surprised me.

-You weren't expecting it, right? -No. No.

When you said, "I'm in command now," you surprised me.

But it wasn't the first time.

I'm used to it.

When you let the rope go in the river. At the pier, remember?

I drifted for 500 meters.

I crashed against the branches and the lily pads. Remember that?

-I was wrong that day. -No, you weren't.

You never did me wrong.

I don't know how to take care of you, but you always took care of me.

What will happen to us?

Are we always gonna be frozen in that moment...

when they took Anita away?

I know you love me.

Do you think I didn't see your face? That I didn't see your fear?

You're were trembling in panic when I was drifting.

I was drifting away and I saw your face. You're afraid of losing me, too. Right?

We are not to blame for what happened to Anita.

We need to be clear about that. Not to blame.

What are you looking at? Lost something?

-What? I'm not looking at you. -Never seen two sensitive men before?

Hey, hey. Stop it. Stop it. You shouldn't fight.

If I want to fight, I fight. I'll fight you, him, any army.

What is it? Did you lose something, I said?

-Easy, don't worry about it. -Sit down, man.

Sit on my dick. Why do you provoke me?

-Why doesn't he look somewhere else? -Take it easy.

If I wanna punch you, I'll punch you.

-Why don't you calm him down? -You calm down.

Who are you? Who are you? Wanna fight? Come here!

Go where? If I wanna fight, I'll fight today.

-Let's go, come on. -I won't be able to find him again.

-Here, take your trench coat. -Asshole.

Asshole? Motherfucker!

Why won't you let me fight?

-Why is he looking at me? -What's wrong with you?

Are you a badass now? Why do you pick fights?

-I'm a badass, bro. -What's wrong with you?

Is this a meeting or not? We're meeting. I ask you to trust me.

I'll trust you. I want to take care of you.

And as I want to take care of you, please stay low till I come for you.

Despite being drunk, you plot. You like plotting.

-Unbelievable. You're unbelievable. -I want everything to be okay.

Can we talk somewhere else? We can't be here. Or can we?

Can we?

Why don't we beat him up together, just like old times?

Why don't we vent ourselves on those two idiots?

Say yes. Say yes, come on.

-Did I wake you? -No.

-It was the smell of coffee. -You know I make the best coffee.

Yes, absolutely.

Here, Dad.

Rosarito, if something happened to you, I couldn't bear it.

But it's all over, Dad. There's no more danger.

You know you're the most important thing in my life, right?

And you in mine.

Now, it's important to support the cause

of the girls involved in this.

Rosario.

Even though I'm embarrassed, there are things I need to tell you.

What's up?

You know I love your mother. Always have.

But you know that we men have our weaknesses.

And sometimes...

we make mistakes, some more serious than others.

Don't pitch me the faithful love because I don't buy it.

Especially not from you.

Even though your mother is the love of my life,

and my companion in everything,

I was with other women.

Well, Dad, that's your guys' problem. I don't want to know about it.

Well, it's important for you to know.

Imagine a guy like me,

a producer, owner of a news channel, these situations...

And because of that,

I had to keep those relationships secret.

Until there was one who blackmailed me. So, I figured I had to be more careful.

And I resorted to... working women.

I... had already met Larisa.

I never believed in her disappearance. It seemed so dark.

But she worked...

in those places, VIP places.

I saw her many times, and we went somewhere else...

Until I found out about her disappearance when you brought the news to the channel.

-You could have told me. -Everything we built would have crumbled.

Even though you don't like it, it was for your protection.

-Let me ask you something. -Yes.

Did you meet her during the disappearance?

No.

When I found out she was gone,

when you started investigating, I didn't see her anymore, I swear!

How could you?

Believe me, Rosario, for God's sake.

You disappoint me so much, Dad.

And you embarrass me.

Forgive me, my daughter.

Did you have a good time last night?

Because you're never here when I need you, are you?

You know you can't appear like this. We'll have the media on us.

What happened?

I got drunk, but now I'm okay.

I'd like to know why you didn't tell me about the tattoos investigation.

Quite a morning you're having.

I would've told you when I thought you should know.

-And should I know anything else? -I've been working.

You don't believe it, but I've been investigating a lot.

I didn't think it was important, but clearly,

we need to follow that same path.

-Okay. -Paola came to see me the other day.

Chloe's friend, the girl with whom...

She told me she was gonna meet her, but she didn't show up.

I didn't think it was strange,

but days have passed and she hasn't called.

We're always in touch. I don't know, maybe something happened to her.

Are you kidding, Franco?

The woman you have something with, your student,

disappears and you don't do anything?

-Are you covering for someone? -What is it, Garrido?

-You don't trust me? -No.

That's fine.

When did I give you any hint not to trust me?

I hope it's not too late to talk with Paola.

Rosario, how do you feel following your release?

-We'll talk later. -Who is Agent H?

-We'll talk later, guys, please. -How do you feel?

-We always talk to the press. -Did they beat you?

Good morning, Rosario.

I want you to contact Monica and Larisa. I want to talk to them.

I understand you don't like hidden mikes or bugged phones.

I summoned you here to speak at ease.

I have everything you need.

With this data, we can attack your party friends.

They must've bought many people for this not to be released earlier.

You know what this is like, prosecutor.

What's the information you have for me?

I can give it to you.

My agent did a great job. You need to return his favor.

What do you want?

I've reached my limit in my position. I've been wanting to move forward.

-Do you want to be a politician? -And I want your media protection.

All right.

I can give it to you.

But in exchange, all those images of Alfredo will have to disappear.

What images?

I want nothing to stain my reputation.

Agreed. One more thing.

I want to be close to Rosario.

On one condition:

Don't hurt her.

Do you know how powerless I felt when they told me you'd been kidnapped?

Alfredo came and treated me like a fool.

I imagined my world without Rosario and I felt like dying.

Really, you know? Are you all right, Rosario? What's wrong?

-Juan... -You look distant.

-We need to talk. -Yes, tell me, what is it?

After everything that's happened, my head exploded, you know.

-Yes, of course. -I love you a lot,

but... I find it hard to think about us.

-Honey, you're killing me. -I love you and don't want to hurt you.

-Yeah, Rosario, you're sinking me. -No, I'm gonna help you in your job,

in your career. Nothing will happen to you, don't worry.

Did anything else happen that I don't know about?

Many things happened, Juan.

I can't talk now, I have a meeting. Let's talk some other time, okay?

Bye.

We're classifying...

We have to test the evidence...

Nico, call me. We have a body.

-Rulfo, we're seeing each other too much. -Yeah, this is a shitty job, isn't it?

The more blood that runs, the closer we become.

-How poetic. -The tragicomic absurdities of life.

Where's your little friend? That asshole Bernal? On TV? Dancing?

You're being unfair to him. Bernal does a lot.

Personal convenience, his own convenience, nor justice or solidarity.

He plays the avenger in front of the cameras, but we, Guerrido,

we are the ones who really get our hands dirty. We work hard.

Don't let him get you dirty. You're too valuable.

Hands off.

How are you going to do the interview?

She was taken by a trafficking network.

The idea is for the interview to be focused on what people want to know.

Who took her, where was she taken from,

how they forced her to be a prostitute, who were her clients, her release...

I think we need to be careful because we don't know who could be involved.

I think the questions are coherent, no matter who's involved.

-And what do you propose, Alfredo? -The approach should be different.

-This is all known. What---? -Sorry. Larisa is here.

Look, Rosario, you understand me, right?

I stopped. I stopped before.

Yes, Dad, I understand.

She can put pressure on you,

-she can manipulate you. -Dad, as you always say,

things are solved on the air.

I have to go to Makeup.

Welcome, how are you? Monica.

Nice to see you again. Larisa, finally, a pleasure.

-Thanks for having us. -You're welcome. This way.

When Rosario returned she resumed the investigation. She's very committed.

-We want the whole truth to be known. -Yes. We want the same, too.

Are you ready, Larisa?

-Can I see Rosario? -Yes, of course. This way.

Fuck me!

-Yes? -May I?

-I wasn't expecting you here. -I need to watch my star witness.

-How's your brother doing? -Well.

-He's fine. Why do you ask? -It's the least I can do.

He saved my life. I'm alive, thanks to him.

He'll be fine. He'll keep a low profile for a while, so he'll be fine. And you?

Better. I get better by the hour. But some things cannot be forgotten.

I know. But you had a hard time. You'll be fine, I know you're strong.

Thank you.

-Bernal. Don't mess with my daughter. -Talk to me, Alfredo.

-Do you want me to show her the photo? -It's not that. I have contacts, too.

I'm sure they'd be willing to ruin the life of a dirty prosecutor like you.

The only one who reeks is you. I came to see my witness.

-And now I have to go. -I don't want to see you here anymore.

Make TV and let me do my business, wherever and whenever I want.

Agreed? Why don't you ask your wife about what we agreed upon?

-What are you saying? -Start loving me. Treating me well.

Pretty soon they'll be welcoming me with a red carpet at this channel.

Anything you remember, please call me. Thank you.

You can go. I'm going to city hall to ask for the traffic camera recordings.

Son of a bitch.

Excuse me. Do you need help?

-They broke in and took everything. -Wait, take it easy and explain.

I came in and everything was a mess. They took everything, everything!

Who was it? Who was following you? How can you be so reckless? Deliberately?

No. Nobody was following me! I entered as usual. I don't know what happened!

This is the worst news. We can't do anything. Leave. Our money too?

Yes. Everything. Rest assured, I will get everything back.

-I promise. -I hope so.

Welcome to 24/7 News.

I'm sure many of you want me to tell my story, but I won't.

Today we'll talk about the story that kept us on edge for a year.

Fortunately, with the best ending possible.

Larisa Torres was found alive.

And she's here with us to tell her story.

-Thank you for coming, Larisa. -Thank you.

One year.

Where do you want to start?

With you.

My mom told me everything that you did for me.

Thank you. For searching for me.

I know you suffered, too.

It was nothing compared to what happened to you.

Tell me.

Tell me anything you remember, whatever you want to tell.

When they took me,

the first thing I lost was a sense of time.

Now you tell me it's been one year.

But for me, it was an eternity.

You can imagine the things they did to me.

Being there and living it...

I can imagine, yes.

LARISSA TORRES: "THE FIRST THING I LOST WAS MY SENSE OF TIME"

How did you find the will to go on, to--?

To stay alive?

I thought of my family.

Of my boyfriend.

Of what it would be like to go home.

And have a normal life.

Did you ever think about escaping?

Yes.

In fact, I tried.

What were your days like there?

My days were all the same.

"I ONLY THOUGHT ABOUT MY FAMILY AND MY BOYFRIEND"

Except when they took me out.

They made me wear makeup and dress up.

And they took me to parties.

"MY DAYS WERE ALL THE SAME, EXCEPT FOR WHEN THEY'D TAKE ME OUT"

They were full of foreign men.

Very powerful men.

Did they take you there alone?

There were many others.

They took the lives of many others.

"THEY TOOK THE LIVES OF A LOT OF GIRLS LIKE ME"

Are you aware that you were a slave?

-I'm sorry. -Take your time.

Being a slave to a man who can do whatever he wants with you is the worst thing...

that can happen to you.

That's right.

There are faces I will never forget.

Did you meet Roque Carbone?

Yes, I did. I saw him a few times.

Now that you tell me, I did.

I could recognize many of the clients.

Have they taken your statement?

"I COULD RECOGNIZE SEVERAL CLIENTS"

I have to expand upon my statement before the judge.

The one I started with Prosecutor Bernal.

And what would you like to do once this hell is over?

I want to--

I want to be happy.

I want to resume my life.

-And not be afraid anymore. -Of course.

"I WANT TO BE HAPPY AND NOT SCARED"

What would you like to be?

I always wanted to be a reporter. Like you.

-Thank you for coming to tell your story. -Thank you.

We'll go to commercial, then return with more news.

-Rosario... -Larisa...

I know there's a person close to me who was in that party.

And I want to ask for your forgiveness.

-Rosario, back in five. -Coming.

So, what will we do with the news? What's the layout?

The economy, politics, sports?

Or are we going to--?

-I need to talk to you. -Yes, may I have a minute, please?

Talk to me.

I need to tell you something. Take it as you will. It's my obligation to say it.

-I wanted to talk about this-- -You don't know what I want to tell you.

Maybe it's better if we talk somewhere else.

-My dad told me that after you-- -It's not about Alfredo.

Look, I once overheard a client talking at one of those parties.

He was a guy called Jimmy.

The TV was on and playing an ad from the channel with your photo.

And he made a comment.

How lucky this girl was that she was adopted by the Santa Cruzes.

If she ever knew what her biological mother was like...

That's all I could hear. I don't know whether it helps.

-I'm sorry. -No.

It's time.

It's all set.

Motherfuckers. Motherfuckers.

Motherfuckers! Fuck them all!

Motherfuckers!

-Hello. -Thank you.

What a bitch.

What a fucking bitch.

-Do me a favor. -Yes.

I left some folders upstairs, go and get them.

After everything that happened, we deserved a family dinner.

You went through horrible things, my daughter.

I also propose to harden sentences...

and take a firmer position in Congress.

-I think that's good, Mom. -Don't worry about your dad and me.

We have our arrangements...

and we love and need each other... and... whatever.

-I don't think it's necessary, Isabel. -I do think it's necessary.

I want her to know and understand

that we've made many mistakes. You made yours, I made mine.

But we keep choosing each other.

I put myself in his position,

and I understand it must've been very hard for him...

to acknowledge his relationship with this girl.

But surely it's very hard for you...

to understand these things since you're so young.

She's right about everything, and I'm determined to beg for forgiveness.

Larisa told me that at one party there was information on my biological mother.

Do you know anything about that, Dad? Did she say anything when you met her?

3 YEARS LATER

Mrs. Santa Cruz?

Mrs. Santa Cruz?

Isabel, do you feel all right?

Do you think this could be revenge from Agent H?

-What's he saying? -Who is Agent H?

-Isabel, are you okay? -Will you answer, Madam Deputy?

Gonzalo, I'm sorry, but... we didn't know.

We were afraid. Afraid of...

Afraid of losing control.

Are you all right?
