-Cheers.
-[glasses clink]

I could fall asleep like this.

But I'm pretty sure my belly
wouldn't exactly like that. [laughs]

That's not a problem, I've got a solution.

Here, I'm nice and comfortable.

So we just move the pillow
over here and voila,

an exceptionally cozy bed for the lady.

Please, be my guest.

All right.

So? Five-star experience, right?

It's not bad at all.

We also offer a lullaby service
for the baby,

so it can have sweet dreams.

♪ Hush little baby, don't you cry ♪

-How's that?
-[gentle music begins]

Don't look at me like that.

-Like what?
-Like that.

So I noticed something.

When you're feeling happy,
your eyes start to sparkle.

I love seeing you like that.

I love feeling this way.

-But there's so much more.
-Oh?

What do you mean?

There's so much about you
I'll miss when this is done.

It's probably best
if we don't think about the future.

That we don't think about saying goodbye.

Because right here and right now,

it's you and me and we're together.

Maybe you're right.

[gentle music continues]

[theme music playing]

THE SURROGACY

[Cuca] I can't come
to the phone right now.

Please leave a message.

Grandma, please call me back.

Nothing.

Sonia, why don't you call the woman

who was interested
in purchasing the cleaners?

Neither of us have her number.

No, my grandma wrote on the sign

that potential buyer
should ask her neighbor.

[tense music]

Maybe she forgot her cell
at the neighbors.

I went over there and she said
Cuca and the buyers left together.

[phone ringing]

She's calling.

Grandma, what happened? Where are you?

[dramatic music]

The thing is, your grandma is fast asleep.

I had her take a little nap
so we can talk.

What? Who is this?

I'm a friend.

A friend just as long as
you stay on my good side, you know?

Because I'm also tight with Carlos.

What do you want?

There, now we're talking.

Miss Cuca wants you to leave the paperwork
with the neighbor, you got that?

Everything from the dry cleaners
and your house too.

Transfer the electric
and the water bills. Understood?

I'll have everything ready in a few hours.
Just let her go, please.

We'll have to see, won't we?

Hey. Hey.

What happened? Who was it?

What? What did they say, Sonia?

Carlos had someone kidnap Cuca.

Something terrible happened.

The police officers that
searched Ochoa's house

accidentally killed his son.

Beatriz was locked in her room.

She wouldn't let the cops inside.

They warned her they were
going to break down the door,

but she didn't listen, she didn't move.

And now Beatriz is going
to be a victim yet again.

No. No, that simply will not do.

The press and the public can't get enough
of depressing tear-jerking stories.

They'll be all over this one.

Mom, please tell me you're not going
to send that christening gown to her.

Of course, I am.

Along with a heartfelt condolence letter
that you're going to write.

I will also speak to the priest
and have him prepare a mass

for the eternal rest
of that poor creature.

[tense music begins]

You're going way too far, Mother.
I won't have any part in it.

-I--
-No?

But there, you sent two sets
of infant clothes

to Julia as a gift after
the supposed death of her baby boy.

What's the difference?

Not only that, you admitted
you aborted her embryo.

I have to hand it to you, Fer,
you're playing both sides very well.

Apparently, Arturo,
you forced her to abort it.

[tense music continues]

Under no circumstances

are we to make a statement
or respond to the media.

We simply cannot afford to
give Beatriz more attention.

Now, let's move on
to something more important.

-Carlos has spoken to Yeni.
-Yes, I talked to Balo.

His mother saw Carlos
after he argued with Yeni.

Apparently, he was upset.

Do they know if Carlos saw the boy?

Yes. But some guy named
Francisco was holding him.

That must be the man
Navarro saw her with at the hospital.

He probably wanted to help
and reunited them.

But Yeni didn't give Carlos the boy.

No, no, no. That's good.

At least she kept her part of the deal.

But she went and revealed secrets
we won't be able to deny.

Who knows what her plan is.

I bet she can't stand the idea
of being around Carlos.

We need to make
that woman disappear, Arturo.

Fer, we'll need you

to make a thorough search
of Irene's office.

And as for you, Briseno will
help you access his department

to find a copy of the contract
Irene made with that woman.

Wait a minute, Mom.

What are you planning to do
with the second gown?

Don't worry, I'll make sure
that gets to Carlos

in time for his son's burial.

[dramatic music]

Yes, I did tell Yeni
that you planned it all.

Oh, so then it's true that you and Hugo
are responsible for setting her up.

And so what?

-How could you, Julia?
-What?

You're upset that Yeni now feels
as betrayed by your actions as I do?

No, no, no. This is completely different.

We spoke about this. I made a mistake.

Oh, come on, don't you dare pretend
that you never meant to hurt us, Carlos.

-That's ridiculous.
-No, I never did, Julia.

And it makes all the difference.

I never wanted to,
my intention was not... it wasn't,

I never meant to hurt anybody, I swear.

What matters are your actions,

not what your intentions are.

[melancholy music begins]

I never claimed to be
a kind and good person, did I?

I told Yeni the things that
I did because I wanted her

to feel just some of the pain
I was going through.

-Wow.
-She isn't just some victim.

No, you know,
because if she was, she wouldn't

make you believe that
she still has your son.

Seriously. How is she not a victim, Julia?

We're the people who upended her life.

We took advantage of her.

And look, if she is lying
about having my son,

you don't have to worry about it.

I'll be looking into it.
I'll get to the bottom of this.

That's good, that's good.
You go and find the truth.

I hope you and the truth
are happy together.

Wait, Julia, just stop. Please stop.

We keep going around in circles
and I just want to,

I just don't want to fight anymore.

You listening to me?

You're not really gonna go
to your parents' place, are you?

You know how I feel
about my parents, Carlos.

Yes. So what?

I'd still rather be with them
than with your,

than with your pack of hyenas.

I'm like fresh meat to them.

Wait, Julia, when I married you,
I promised I'd always take care of you.

You don't have to go anywhere.
I'm not just gonna abandon you.

Carlos, if only you kept
your promise, Carlos,

our marriage wouldn't be falling apart.

[music continues]

-And Tessa...
-Wait. No, no, no, no.

Hang on. Don't even bring that up.

The girl is staying with me. Period.

That's fine. It's for the best.

[music continues]

Hey, come, sit.

[tender music]

I wanted to thank you because... [sighs]

because you registered her under our name.

I'm not the one to thank.

Nora was prepared to register Tessa
as her own daughter.

And you know what?
I don't want her to control us.

Your mother's manipulated you for years.

-Maybe this will help.
-Hey, I'm... [sighs]

[door shuts]

[tense music]

[Marcela] What did they say?

Why did they take Beatriz
to Navarro's Hospital?

I don't know, Marcela.

I followed the ambulance here.
No one told me anything.

All of this is Nora's doing.
You see that, don't you?

It is. I know it. [groans]

This is getting out of hand, Nora.

First, you get me involved with Yeni

and now you're roping me into
this thing with Ochoa's wife.

Yes, I will continue to
call upon your services

for as long as I require.

You have your own hospital, thanks to me.

But I can kiss all of that goodbye
if people find out what we're doing.

No one will find out.

Nora, we're both under increasing amounts
of scrutiny from the authorities.

I can't keep taking these risks.

[scoffs]

[tense music]

-How are you?
-[Francisco] Where is my daughter?

I had a question, actually.
They told me you let my in-laws take her.

That's correct.
I'm not sure what the problem is.

Buy why?
You had no right to do that, Doctor.

I'm not continuing this conversation
until you calm down.

Hey, Francisco, Francisco, calm down.

No, no, I'm not going to calm down.

Not until this man brings me
my daughter back

so I can take her home where she belongs.

Sir, I told you myself that
she was ready to be discharged,

but you questioned that decision.

I don't understand you.
What are you playing at?

No, no, no, no, no, Doctor.

I'm the one who gets to ask questions.

What are you playing at,
letting my daughter just be taken?

I'm going to sue you.

I can't wait to watch you try.
Now get outta my hospital.

Not without my girl.
I'm not moving until I get her.

So do whatever you have to do
to make it happen.

There's no way I'm leaving her
with a corrupt doctor like you.

I know everything you've done
and I know what you did to Yeni.

[Navarro] I think you'll find
you've no proof.

Stop, Francisco. What are you doing?

Calm down. Just look at me, look at me.

-Calm down.
-He's unconscious.

Nurse, we need a gurney here now.
Right away.

Francisco, what on earth happened here?

My... my daughter.
He told me that you took my daughter.

What? Of course not.

We brought her outside
so she could get a bit of fresh air.

[dramatic music]

[tense music]

There had better be a pretty good reason
you told Julia about her embryo.

What was I supposed to say?

Arturo, I didn't tell my mom
that you forced me into anything.

It was Julia... but the result remains.

You made me feel like a bad man.

Remember what you always say?

If you mess up, why should
I take the fall for you?

And besides, it's not like Mother
has any faith in you and me.

We're not the favorites.

You taking over,
it would be over her dead body.

She'd never leave
the pharmaceutical company

to a climber like you.

Her heir, it won't be me. It won't be you.

Not Carlos or Nico.

Mom's new favorite is that girl, Tessa.

[siren sounding]

Excuse me, Officer.
But could I get a quick moment?

-[Officer] Sure.
-Thanks.

Just stay calm.
I'll get you a lawyer, okay?

No, that's not necessary.

Just please look after my daughter, Elvin,
protect her.

Navarro's up to something.

What if he's severely injured?

Excuse me, but I'm a lawyer
and I can assist.

All right, we have to take him in,
you can talk later.

I don't know exactly what happened,
but we'll talk soon.

Elvin, just tell him what happened.

Can you do that? Thanks, thanks so much.

[somber music]

[siren sounding]

[sighs] Francisco just had a disagreement

-with the hospital director.
-I see.

Hopefully the man's injuries
will not be too severe.

Then perhaps we'll get away
with a fine or a formal apology.

My card.

I'll inquire about his condition
and see where we stand.

If you want, I'll wait for you
and we'll see Francisco together.

-All right. Be right back.
-Thank you.

[Arturo] At least Nora didn't register
the girl as her daughter.

She was stopped before she could, sure.

But both of us know
who holds the power. It's Julia.

She knows it. She told me herself.

Don't worry, time's still on our side.

It'll be years
before the girl inherits anything.

And lots might happen
between now and then.

Sure, but Julia mentioned something.
It completely freaked me out.

She accused my mother and me
of destroying all of her embryos.

But Yeni's son and Tessa,

they were one of her embryos, right?

A split embryo, yes.
We spoke about this, Fer.

But only one of the two
was born with clubfoot, the boy.

Plus of course,
all the children of the women

taking the medication
we've been testing at the company.

Yes, but she's accusing us of stealing
her one and only chance of being a mother.

Because those children aren't really hers.
You understand?

No, she didn't mean that.

I know what I heard, Arturo.

And besides, you don't think that Julia
wouldn't fight to keep that boy with her?

Well, we'll just keep
investigating them, won't we?

If we got rid of her embryos--

If we did, then where did
Tessa and the boy come from?

[dramatic music]

What happened?

They're keeping very quiet
about the condition of Dr. Navarro.

But I did manage to get hold

of the hospital's legal department,
and they told me

that they won't tolerate
any sort of violence there.

They're going to sue most likely,
but they're open to an agreement at least.

So then what does that mean?

It can potentially be
settled with compensation.

An apology may even suffice.
We'll have to see.

Francisco didn't mean to hit the doctor

but things got outta hand
when Navarro said

that his daughter had been
taken from the hospital

-and no one notified him.
-I understand.

Unfortunately, the authorities
don't see it as just cause.

It's almost certain
that the law will side with Navarro

in this because it concerns
the safety of the hospital staff,

but there's no need to worry
unless things escalate.

What do you say we go and visit Francisco?

-[Elvin] Of course. Let's go.
-All right.

[solemn music]

Is that your son?

I've been in your shoes. I guess.

Not a single day goes by in my life
where I don't miss my son.

Only a mother who has had to bury her boy
can understand

what kind of pain
you must be going through.

You can't deny that.

I know you're struggling to accept
that you'll never see him again.

I'm not going to accept anything.

My precious boy was stolen from me.

[Sonia] A car's pulling up.

[Keyus] A taxi.

[dramatic music]

It must be that Balo guy.
I have to see it.

No, no, no, Sonia,
just wait, you obviously can't go.

I have to.

No way can we risk Cuca getting hurt.
Stay here.

-[Balo] Good evening, ma'am.
-Good evening.

EXPRESS DRY CLEANER

[Balo] I'm here to pick up
those documents.

Here you go.

All right, thanks.

[tense music]

Get down. Get down.

All right, let's go.

Okay, he's gone. Come on, hurry up.

[dramatic music]

[buzzer sounding]

FOR SALE. INFO HERE.

Thank goodness. I thought that
horrible man had come back.

Did he say anything about my grandma?

No, nothing. I just gave him the papers.

We knew it was possible this might happen.

Just call her, okay? Take it easy.

Thank you.

[tense music begins]

Hello.

[Sonia] We did what you asked.
Now let my grandma go.

[tense music continues]

You do realize this is revenge, don't you?

No, I don't understand.
You got your revenge.

Your own son took Yeni's father from her.

It's not enough.

My pain hasn't gone away.

[tense music continues]

It will continue to grow.

As long as you continue to blame others

instead of looking at yourself,
the hurt will fester.

Trust me.

[music continues]

I've been there before.

When we have a child,

-we become mothers forever.
-[monitor beeping]

If we lose our child,
we don't stop being mothers

even when they're no longer with us.

[dramatic music]

[brace rasping]

[Beatriz whimpering] Ow, ow.

[dramatic music continues]

My son.

[Roberto] I'm sorry to call at this hour.

There was a man in prison
I was trying to help.

His name is Francisco,

and he's another one of
Navarro's victims like Yeni.

Tell me about him later.

What did you find out
about the boy and Beatriz?

I'm not close family,
so it was tough to get much information.

But I'm afraid the baby didn't survive.

[dramatic music]

[thunder rumbling]

[head thudding]

[sobbing]

[tape rasping]

[nurse] Stop, no, no no, please, miss.

You can't remove that.

-Where is my baby?
-[monitor beeping]

Let me get the doctor.

[dramatic music continues]

[monitor beeping]

I've got her head.
Let's lift one, two, three.

And the baby.

The baby didn't make it.

What'd he say?

[Beatriz whimpering]

My baby?

[sobbing] My baby boy.

[Beatriz sobbing]

-[bandage rustling]
-[groaning and whimpering]

[nurse] Calm down, ma'am.

[Beatriz screaming]

Ma'am, please breathe.

I'm here. Just breathe.

-Where's my baby?
-It's all right. It's all right.

You're gonna be okay.

Here, why don't you lie back down?

It's okay, shh.

[Beatriz sobbing]

[Roberto] Are you still there?

I'm sorry.

It's all my fault, Roberto.

Of course, it's not.

-Don't say that.
-[exhales deeply]

The... the baby had birth defects
because of the protocol pill.

The parents and babies who suffered,
I'm responsible.

And now, after everything,
their baby's gone.

He's gone because I told Beatriz
not to open the door for anyone.

[sobbing]

[phone clatters]

[woman sobbing]

[music continues]

[bowl clattering]

What's going on?

[whispers] Uh, sorry, sorry,
just turn that off, please.

[Keyus] You okay? What's wrong?

I just, I don't know if Yeni's asleep,
and I didn't wanna wake her.

[gentle music]

I have to stay up in case they call me
to pick up my grandma.

[Keyus] I still think
we should consider calling the police.

No, Keyus, we can't do that.

I have to keep her safe,
and we know Carlos' family did this.

Hey, Sonia, slow down, Sonia.

It's okay.

[Sonia sobbing]

It's all right. It's all right.

[Sonia sobbing]

We're gonna be okay. I promise.

Okay?

Yeah?

-I'm so sorry.
-No, no, it's fine.

It's all going to work out, okay?

Everything will be all right.

Thank you so much, Keyus.

I don't know what I'd do without you.

No, I don't know what I'd do without you

Trust me.

I wish that they'd taken me
instead of your grandma.

No, please don't say things like that.

I mean it.

I wish things were different.

Look, there's something I wanna say,
and it's going to come out of nowhere.

Look, please.

-No, Keyus.
-Let tell you.

Please let me say it, Sonia, Sonia, Sonia.

With everything that's happened,

it's got me thinking

wondering what my life would be
if you weren't in it,

if something happened to us. [sniffs]

And you know what?

[gentle music continues]

I don't want a life without you.

I don't wanna live without you.

I don't wanna live without you.

[lips smacking]

[Sonia whimpering]

[baby cooing]

[dramatic music]

[pills rattling]

HUIZAR PHARMACEUTICAL

[bag clattering]

[baby cooing]

[dramatic music continues]

[keys jingling]

[latch clicking]

Hello, Nora.

[Nora] How are you doing?

Good, I had an absolutely
terrible headache last night,

but I told 'em I was doing much worse,
so they blamed Francisco.

Hmm, well, I imagine
that will work. [laughs]

It's turned out so well
it's almost like we planned it.

This is the perfect opportunity
to stop him meddling in our affairs.

We'll get rid of his in-laws, too,

although I'm still worried
he knows about Yeni.

I can't believe
she's still causing us problems.

But at least we have an idea to stop her.

And Beatriz?

Hmm, don't worry about her.

You make sure she's sedated
for her health and for our peace of mind.

They told me
there's somebody asking about her,

a man, uh, Roberto.

You're under no obligation
to tell him anything.

Uh, Nora, if anyone finds out
that we brought her here--

No one will find out.

Trust me.

The focus will be firmly

on something that is
much more interesting.

I promise you
Francisco and Beatriz will do exactly

as we tell them.

Mm-hmm.

[dramatic music continues]

At least they better.

ANDRES OCHOA'S SON DIES

[Briseno] This terrible accident
occurred because the woman

in question intentionally hid the firearm
inside of their baby's crib

in an attempt to keep it
from the officers.

We will be conducting ballistics
and DNA tests to determine

whether this weapon was
involved in the death

of Irene Aviles Nieto.

[reporter] Chief Briseno, Chief--

-That's it.
-Just one question.

I will take one question at this time.
Go ahead.

[reporter] What about the
allegations of police brutality?

I believed that at first
to be exaggerated,

yet after investigating, the officers
in question have been dismissed.

As chief, I cannot permit
any allegations to go unpunished.

[dramatic music]

Yeni?

Keyus, Keyus, wake up.

-Mm.
-[Sonia] Wake up.

What is it?

-Did you hear from Cuca?
-[sighs]

No, but Yeni's gone,
and she left the baby here.

Are you sure?

Maybe she just went out or...

No, last night was bad.

She said she felt responsible
for what happened to Cuca.

She said she'd handle it.

[dramatic music continues]

Pull over.

[Nora] I didn't even have to
go looking for you.

Well, well, you walked straight
into the mouth of the wolf.

[dramatic music continues]

If you're here to apply
for the maintenance job,

the entrance is on the other side.

No, that's not the reason I'm here.

Ah, in that case,
the clinical trials are over here.

No, I didn't come for that either.

I'm here to speak
to the owner of the building.

You'll need to sign in
at the reception desk.

[dramatic music continues]

Good morning,
and how can I help you today?

I'm here to speak with Nora Huizar.

Please give her my name, Yeni Santillan.

I assure you
she's going to want to see me.

[tone beeps]

-[knocking]
-[door opens]

Ma'am, reception is
requesting authorization

for the woman you told me about.

Send her in.

Call Fer and let her know
she's on her way.

Yes, ma'am.

Tell my daughter
that if she hasn't sent the gift yet,

she should bring it
and deliver it personally.

Yes, ma'am.

[dramatic music continues]

[Arturo] Yes, Nora.

All we needed was
the right kind of incentive.

The trap is laid,
and that woman is on her way here.

With no leverage.

She has no proof and nothing
she can use to denounce us.

I know for a fact that she never received
the surrogacy contract.

You didn't find the document at Areni's?

No, but I'm with David right now,
and he confirmed it.

Excellent, I want you to make sure

you've settled the transfer
of the laundromat.

I should do this before you meet her?

She's probably come to beg me
to free her friend,

this Cuca, but I don't find
myself in a bargaining mood.

She's going to have to do as I say.

I hold the cards
and I want her to disappear

with that monster of a child
once and for all.

[dramatic music continues]

If you would follow me.

[Arturo] Did Balo give you
the laundromat document?

No, he picked everything up last night.

I thought that you were
bringing them here,

that that's why you visited them.

When we get them,
they need to go to this notary.

Now, if you don't mind me asking,
who has the contract right now?

I do.

Then, hand it over.

[laughing] Why? It's not
like they have valid legal--

I know that, but I wanna make sure
the evidence is gone.

Well, you know, I could,

but your men gave me
quite the beating the other day.

I figured it would be good
to have some insurance

to protect myself a bit.
Pretty smart, huh?

So, the contract is
already with another notary

who will be opening it
and making it public

if anything bad happens to me.

You know, I figure she went to see Carlos.

Maybe she asked him to help Cuca.

[dishes clattering]

-[sighs]
-What are you doing?

Hey, Sonia, don't.

Just stop. I mean...
I mean, what if she isn't there?

I'm calling my grandma.
Maybe she'll pick up.

[phone beeps]

[dramatic music]

[cup thudding]

I need to use the bathroom.

I'll go with you.

Careful, we can't have you falling.

INCOMING CALL SONIA

[phone ringing]

[dramatic music continues]

[Cuca whimpering]

-[door clattering]
-[phone ringing]

Cuca, open up now.

What are you doing?

Come on, Cuca.
Don't do anything stupid now.

There's no way out. You can't escape.

Cuca, open the door.

Well, if you won't help me,
I'll be forced to speak to the doctor.

Unfortunately, sir,
he isn't authorized to provide

information to anyone
outside of the family either.

Her husband, Andres Ochoa, is in prison.

I'm not some nobody.
I'm her husband's lawyer.

Well, I apologize, sir, but as a lawyer,
I hope you'll understand our policies

in regards to confidentiality.

Then, why not ask her
if I can be admitted?

No, that's not possible.

Why not?

Is she unconscious?

I can't disclose that information, sir.

[sighs] Then, I'll speak
to your supervisor,

or send me someone higher up
because I'm not leaving

without an update on Beatriz's condition.

Please, would you?

Let me see what I can do.

Thanks.

Excuse me, sir.

[dramatic music continues]

-Follow me.
-What are you doing here?

[knock on door]

Hey, Ma, did you hear?

They murdered Beatriz's son.

I read about it in the paper.

[dramatic music continues]

Go on in.

[phone ringing]

-Yes?
-[Nora] I'm busy.

Do not let anyone in until I tell you to.

[Carlos] How far are you
willing to go, Mom?

[dramatic music continues]

Gonna get you out of here, Beatriz,
but you have to help me.

I'm waiting for you to finish
the call with your in-laws.

If you move an inch, I'll kill you.

What do you want in exchange for Cuca?

I don't know what you're talking about.

I'm going to make them pay
for what they did to me.

If you let her go,
I'll disappear from your life.

[Nora] I won't give you any more chances.

[Yeni] It was a surprise.

There's something I have to tell you
about the boy Yeni has.

I don't want you anywhere near my family.

That's exactly
what you have to stop doing,

putting yourself
and the rest of us at risk.

-I won't let you do it anymore.
