Did you like it?

-Very much. It was fantastic. -I'm so glad!

Wasn't it great. It was one of those epiphany moments.

The perfect collection for a new type of woman.

A woman who is sure of herself, but feminine at the same time.

Refined and discreet.

One like me, now I think of it.

Imprudent, vulgar, inopportune. I'm referring to the collection.

Especially presenting it at a gentlemen's club.

What do you mean?

Treating those girls like meat for the pleasure of these men.

-You've become such a prude, Clara. -This has nothing to do with being prude.

Really?

So a woman isn't free to wear what she wants and feel good about it?

-Elena didn't mean to offend you, Clara. -Relax, it's not like she has any tact.

This is absolutely pointless. Can we leave it for another time?

I think that's for the best. See you tomorrow.

Think about it.

She's calling me inopportune and vulgar

when she's the most unpleasant woman in Barcelona?

What did you expect?

You did this behind her back, you were asking for this.

She doesn't need an excuse.

-What about me? -What about you?

-You didn't tell me anything either. -I wanted it to be a surprise.

Well, it was.

Especially you being in business with Godó.

I can't do anything right. I don't know how to please you anymore.

Don't forget you allowed her to reject my proposal.

Tonight is my night, Sergio. I won't let anybody ruin that.

You're leaving?

-Yes, I was... -Leaving without saying goodbye?

-Not here. -I don't care. What about you?

I'd prefer it if we were discreet while we're doing business.

Fine.

-The dress will be finished soon. -Yes.

We'll have to celebrate with an unforgettable dinner.

-When? -Tomorrow.

Or should I wait till you come to Iran again?

No, tomorrow would be perfect.

You're amazing.

Thank you.

Congratulations on a fabulous show.

-That's just what I needed to hear. -Has something happened?

No, it's just nerves from the presentation.

Don't let anything dampen this unique moment.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

Eduard.

Omar.

Allow me to introduce His Excellency the Ambassador of Iran,

Omar Ahmadí.

-My sincerest congratulations. -Thank you.

Not many women would dare present a collection like that

in such a masculine environment.

-Some people think I lowered the tone. -Well...

I think it was brave and self-assured. And I'm sure it will be a success

I appreciate it.

Do you supply internationally?

I'm surprised. I didn't think you'd be interested in the lingerie business.

Anything that's worth it, Eduard. Could I see the whole collection?

Now?

You have to be quick off the mark in this life.

Why wait until tomorrow?

Of course. It would be my pleasure.

Come with me.

I'll just check none of the girls are in here.

Hello?

-Come in. There's no one here. -Ladies first.

Sure.

Okay... Let's see.

We could actually take them upstairs and look at them there.

We're good here. It's more private.

Sure.

-It's beautiful. -Yes.

Though I'm not sure this would be well received in the East.

-It's another world. -One that I know well.

One I could show you.

Right.

Where have you been hiding?

Elena.

Hi.

I've been looking for you.

His Excellency was very interested in the lingerie collection,

so we came up here to take a look at it.

Right.

But what His Excellency maybe didn't know is that you and I are getting married.

And that expanding into new markets will have to wait.

-Congratulations are in order. -But that won't change my career plans.

-I'm still very interested in advancement. -Don't worry, miss. My offer can wait.

If you'll excuse me.

-Can you explain what you're playing at? -Can you explain why you were with him?

Excuse me?

Doing business, Sergio. Something I don't do with you or Clara.

No, Cristina.

I'm only speaking to you right now, because I want to know if you have Elvis.

Fine.

See you tomorrow then.

Congratulations.

-We did a great job. -The Cava campaign has to be even better.

Don't doubt it.

I was thinking that when Elvis comes, we could do something else for marketing.

Get one of those stolen photos, so people talk about his link to Godó.

-Let me have a think about it. -Shall I call you tomorrow?

-Yes, I'm sure I'll have a clearer idea. -Great. I’ll speak to you tomorrow then.

-Dad? What happened? -Nothing, don't worry.

-It's nothing. -What happened to you?

-This is all my fault. -Can someone explain what's going on?

-You know the girls who came to Manresa? -Yes.

-Well, one of them is Diana's daughter. -Okay.

They didn't see each other for a long time and I tried to bring them together.

Well, it turns out her father wasn't very happy.

-Your husband? -No, they were never married.

Pedro, I'm sorry. I...

I was selfish to let you help me. Look what he did.

Everything happens for a reason.

You're delirious, Dad.

You need to see a doctor and have a check-up.

Take it easy, Manolito. I'm going to report that scumbag.

-For assault. -That'd complicate things.

-Don't do anything, please. -The police have to arrest him.

Let them interrogate him and then we can apply for custody of Marta.

-And do you think they'd grant me it? -I don't know.

But we have to at least try.

Manolito, son, go to your uncle's office

and get the phone book. I'll call a lawyer in the morning.

-Shouldn't we go to the hosp-- -Please.

That's it.

That's great news, Stephanie.

I'll call you tomorrow. Great, bye.

My sister has secured a place for Juliette in another fashion school!

-This calls for a celebration! -It sure does.

-Juliette. -What?

-Honey. -What is it?

You're going to Paris to study fashion. You got into Saint-Benoît.

Aren't you pleased?

Yes, of course.

-It's just very sudden. -These things are but it's fantastic!

-I'm really happy for you. -Thank you, Aunt Marie.

She doesn't seem happy.

It's a lot to take in with everything that's happened.

-I guess that must be it. -Sure.

She deserves a bit of luck.

And you and I deserve to get back to our routine, don't we?

-Sergio. -Mateo asked me to be here.

Me too.

Listen, Clara,

-last night... -I know, I'm sorry. It was inappropriate.

It's not that.

I'm not even sure myself if this makes sense.

Are you talking about Elena?

Good morning.

Last night I realized we've made a mistake.

We can't keep going in circles with Omar. We need a new strategy.

So this show I'm performing for him is all for nothing?

Let's keep our heads. What's done is done.

We can get to Omar a different way.

-Godó. -That's right.

I need you to get any papers your father has on Omar.

You don't have to.

We need your help to stop this coming back on Velvet.

I think I know how to.

Julia, hi, it's Sergio.

I'm not calling for my dad.

Could I speak to Godino, please?

Godino.

-Good morning, how are you? -Good morning.

So this is the famous Club Godó.

-Thank you for coming. -Don't mention it.

Though I was surprised you called, to be honest.

Especially as you wanted to see me without your dad.

Right.

I'll get to the point, Godino.

I know my dad used mine and my siblings' names on contracts

his name didn't appear on.

I don't know where you got that idea, but it isn't true.

Sure it is.

My father, your boss, admitted it.

The same time he told me that he'd make my name disappear off one.

The one for transporting oil

from the Iranian Ambassador Omar Ahmadí. You know which one I mean, right?

Sure you do.

I'll only ask you this once, Godino.

Did he take my name off that contract?

Yes. I did it myself.

Good.

Though I'm sure you'll understand I want to see it myself.

-You'll have to ask your father. -Or you could just give me it.

-You have access to the bank's safe. -Yes, but it isn't there.

Mr. Godó keeps those kinds of documents on hand

in the office safe at his home.

-Very well. -Good luck.

You've gone too far.

Do you see now?

All you care about is getting the credit for your news articles.

-You always put your own interests first. -That isn't true.

You have the merc and we didn't get arrested. What more do you want?

Did you forget about the jewels in your case?

No.

But we deliver the dress tomorrow and then we can forget about the guy.

Who's putting their personal interests first now?

I hate it being this way between us.

So do I.

-We used to be a more-- -More what?

Forget about it.

Thank you so much, Don Ricardo. I wouldn't have known where to begin.

No, they're here waiting.

-Thank you again. -I've been looking for you, cuz.

What's up?

-What happened to you? -I just had a run in with Diana's ex.

I said it wasn't a good idea helping her.

I totally disagree.

-You reported him. -This morning.

I was just speaking to Ricardo Lozoya,

we're going to take advantage and request custody of Marta.

Are you sure about this?

Totally.

Diana...

has had no luck.

And you're in love with her.

-You've no need to be ashamed. -I'm not ashamed...

but thank you.

-Come on, then. -The front hasn't been stitched together.

I can't breathe with this thing.

And that brocade isn't finished. Can't you see that?

And it's not only this one, there's at least another three.

Are you blind?

The cape should be done.

We needed it yesterday. I don't get it.

Miss, come over here. Come here, please.

Where is the fur? Why isn't it being put on?

-It should be sewn on by now. -We're doing what we can.

It's not enough.

Where are you going? Go get the fur.

-Raúl! -Careful with your stick, Mr. De la Riva.

Sorry. Please, forgive me.

This pain is killing me. What do you think?

-It’s very pretty, right? -Tell me she doesn't need the cape now.

Irrespective, she has one. Isn't that right?

She has one.

So here we are with you dropping hints at me.

And, by the way, it's a seven-meter cape.

Seven meters. Look at this--

-Please, Mr. De la Riva. Sit down. -My God!

-There you go, -What happened?

-What happened? -Be careful!

Let me do some stretches with him.

Touch me and I'll kill you. There's no way I'm doing any stretches.

-Bring my drops, please! -What drops, Mr. De la Riva?

-Where are they? -Inés has them. She rations them for me.

Mr. De la Riva, we'll do some stretches and then I'll get the drops.

Listen to me.

Bring my drops or I won't be responsible for my actions.

-I don't know where they are. -Look in my office.

In a glass bottle in my desk drawer.

-Hurry! -Go on, run!

-No, not you. -Not you!

Get Inés.

-She probably has them hidden. -I'll go.

There, there, Mr. De la Riva.

-There, there. -What happened to your face?

I had a problem last night... But don't worry about that.

-Did they hurt you? -A little--

I don't care!

-I really don't. -Neither do I.

They should be back soon. There, there.

Have you seen Inés?

Have you seen Inés?

Hi.

Hi. Were you looking for me?

Yes.

What is it?

-You look like you've seen a ghost. -You look beautiful, Inés.

Thank you.

Mr. De la Riva told me to find you because he needs his...

his drops, because he's...

He's pulled something. Let's go. He's in the studio.

Sure.

-Just stay still. -Oh, hallelujah.

-Hi. -Now, then...

Hi.

Yes, she looks great, but where are my drops?

-Okay. -Only three.

-Right, okay. -More!

-No! -No!

-You can have too much of a good thing. -No!

What a pain!

You're a pain in the ass. I'll take as many as I need!

I'm not hooked.

It was the cape's fault.

-Take it easy. -Give them here.

What are these?

-Where did you get them? -From the desk drawer.

No!

-No. -What is it, Manuel?

There's a very important order I forgot all about.

I'll be right back.

-Manuel. -Those kids do what they like.

Just leave them, that boy...

What's that?

A bruise.

-You have a light on your nose. -What? No. It must be a reflection.

-Are you alright? -Yes, I'm fine.

Let me rest, you're annoying me.

-Are you sure, Raúl? -Yes, I'm tired. Let me rest.

-Sleep well. -Leave me alone.

-What's going on? -Nothing.

I'm inundated with orders, the customers have--

-I know you, Manuel. -Right.

Look...

-If you want to make things right... -Yes.

...stop lying and tell me what's wrong.

Those drops, they're not...

-Mr. De la Riva's. -I now. Whose are they?

Mine.

-Yours? -Yes.

-Why do you need them? -I got them from Patty Samira's retreat.

Patty Samira's retreat? Why did they give you them?

Don't try and find logic where there is none.

I haven't stopped doing stupid stuff since we split up.

-For the love of-- -Listen to me!

I've been looking for peace...

-But only you give me that. -Africa!

Africa!

Oh, Tinkerbell!

Tinkerbell?

Come on, Manuel.

-What are those drops? -They're to connect with other worlds.

But they aren't drugs, right?

-They're hallucinogenics. -What?

I'm going to kill you, Manuel.

I'll kill you.

What's he doing?

Mr. De la Riva?

-What's happening to him? -What's he going to do?

-Please, don't, Mr. De La Riva. -Please!

Please, Mr. De La Riva.

Oh, Manuel!

-Manuel! -Mr. De la Riva!

-Please, get down. -Oh, my God.

Please!

No!

Lord, are you okay, Mr. De la Riva?

-Call a doctor. -Mr. De La Riva?

-Someone call a doctor! -Mr. De La Riva.

A doctor!

-How is he, doctor? -I had to give him a tranquilizer.

The young lady is with him.

How did he get like that? -The effects of a hallucinogenic.

-What? -That's not possible.

I have no reason to lie.

He must have taken LSD.

We just gave him some soothing drops.

I'd check where those drops came from. He could have killed himself.

Let him rest, he'll be fine soon. Just a little hungover.

-We'll walk you out. -Thank you so much.

How could this happen?

It's all my fault.

I know.

-I'm a disaster. -Manuel...

I'll go talk to him.

Manuel.

What's wrong?

-You were right, Dad. I'm useless. -I didn't say that.

All I do is disappoint you. I never get anything right.

Everyone makes mistakes.

And we Infantes men tend to make a lot.

-I should have thrown the drops away. -It's my fault, Dad.

If I'd only listened in the first place.

-All I ever do is ruin your life. -Don't talk nonsense.

That's why I'm going back.

Going back where?

To Germany.

So you can have a quiet life and not have to worry about me.

Look at me.

Don't ever say you're going back again.

Ī wouldn't have made it without all your help.

Being a dad isn't easy.

You need to know that.

Even more so when life deals you the hand I've had.

You're the best thing I have.

And it doesn't matter if you make mistakes.

There are always solutions.

You should never run away though.

Please, forgive me.

-Please. -There, there.

There, there.

I want Carmela in gold,

I want The King in gold, golden bubbles,

-but the backdrop can't be gold. -Good morning.

-Why bother with doors? -Oh, sorry.

Get to work.

Be here first thing for the set up.

-Let's go. -See you tomorrow.

And?

I got Elvis.

No... Really?

We're brother and sister.

It's crucial you bring him here tomorrow at 11:30 a.m.

Hold on, not so fast.

-Why? Is something wrong? -I'd say so.

I'll get you out of this awful mess that you're in,

but I want to be part of your agency.

And I want an office on Madison Avenue, but we don't always get what we want.

It's your choice.

But I think you need me more than I need you.

Wait.

How do I know this isn't a scam?

10%.

For 20% you have a deal.

-How can I be of help? -We have to welcome Carmela.

So little pride to bring us here.

-Bringing us here, Carmela... -Stop milking it, man..

I think there's a lot of dough to be had here.

And one other thing: don't screw this up for me.

You'd better not be getting any ideas of picking a fight again.

-Please. -We'll see, Carmela.

Carmela.

Don Francisco.

-This is Cristina, my sister. -And his partner. Charmed.

Patchy just looked at me.

Get away.

Why don't you come with me to the meeting room

-and I'll show you something unique. -With her?

-She can't see. -Except the future.

You have no culture, Paco.

This is a revolution in the publicity world.

Nobody has ever done anything like it.

A commercial which is like a movie, wishing all of Spain a Merry Christmas.

I'm not sure.

-Without a flamenco dress? -They're dressing you up as a bubble.

Carmela...

-This will make you huge. Trust me. -I'll tell you what will make me huge...

The check, Enrique.

How much are we talking?

-Yes! -How much?

-Come on, Enrique. -How much?

Show me the money.

Olé, the dough, man.

-That's enough! Please. -What a drag.

-Thank you. -Okay.

As you'll see...

what we're offering is more than generous.

Let's go, Carmela. We have no business here.

Wait a minute, we haven't told you everything yet.

There's something more important than money.

You know the value of art more than anyone.

What would you think if I told you...

that The King will appear in this commercial with you.

-The King of Spain? -Right.

A King is less than an empress. Please, Carmela.

No, The...

My sister means The King of Rock, Elvis Presley.

-He'll do. -Elvis?

The one with the flicked back hair who shakes his ass?

That's the one.

-That gorgio is very flamenco. -An artist.

An artist on your level.

He's world famous, he's made it.

Why wouldn't you be interested?

-Hello? -Don Mateo.

-This is Farah Diba's personal bodyguard. -Hello.

I'm calling to confirm if you have proof yet.

-Not yet, but we're close. -Close isn't good enough.

Do you realize the magnitude of this?

The queen's revealing her dress to the press in the morning.

And you want to arrest him after?

But we need concrete evidence against him

-You'll get it. -Okay.

Make sure that Omar doesn't suspect a thing, Don Mateo.

We don't want him to warn his guys.

A desperate man will do anything and we can't put the queen at risk.

My wife will be there. I also want everything to go smoothly.

I'll keep you informed.

Where are you, Julián?

For the most important woman at Velvet Department store.

I'll let Miss Montesinos know, right away.

Don't underestimate yourself, Paloma. These are for you.

-Really? -Of course they are.

-They're beautiful. -Here.

-Thank you so much. -No problem.

Hi.

-Hi, Clara. -I'm sorry, I didn't hear you.

Don't worry, it's what love is like.

It makes you deaf, blind, everything.

-Give me a second? -Sure.

-I think something's wrong. -Don't worry.

They're lovely.

Clara...

you're not okay.

I'm not at my best, no.

You know, I've been where you are.

And one day, out of nowhere, everything changes.

This is all too much for me.

Farah Diba, Omar, Iran...

And Mateo too, right?

You're still in love with him.

And I feel a fool.

You have no reason to, he's still in love with you too.

You're mistaken. He'll always be in love with himself.

My mom always said never-ending love does exist,

just so long as you accept and love the other person just as they are.

-Julián. -Don Mateo.

I've been looking for you all morning.

Sorry, but it's three weeks today since...

it all started with Paloma and I and I wanted to get her something.

But how can I help you?

Coordinate with the Queen of Iran's security detail.

They're presenting the dress at Velvet

and we need to know which are her people and Omar's.

-Has something happened? -They just want to be ready to arrest him.

-They're arresting him already? -It's time.

I'll get right on it then!

Could you tell Paloma I had to leave?

And to put the flowers in water.

-Julián, wait. -Yes?

One thing I've learned is how important the one is.

Tell her yourself.

Paloma.

-Hello. -Hi.

I'll leave you alone.

-Have you heard from Sergio? -No.

-Mateo... -Clara...

I know I'm driving you crazy, but I want to start over.

What?

I wish you hadn't signed those papers.

We're...

going to start over, okay?

With being civil, I mean.

I want much more. I want to start again.

Sure.

Great idea.

Mateo.

Call me if you hear from Sergio.

Of course.

What can I do?

I need to get into the safe, Mom.

You know how things are with your dad.

But you keep jewelry in there.

He'll think it's weird if I suddenly ask him for them.

Leave it to me, I'll see what I can do.

-Are you sure? -Yes.

Macarena. I didn't expect to see you here.

-That's because you never invited me. -What do you think?

Do you like it?

Elegant.

Simple.

It has style.

But I'm not sure it fits with the Velvet philosophy.

It can't be perfect.

Whiskey on the rocks and a Martini for the lady.

I don't want anything. I'm here for something very brief.

-I see it's nothing to do with the club. -Of course not.

I want my mother's rings and jewelry back.

If you need money for your new project you can ask me.

I'm not selling them.

-So, why do you want them now? -Must I explain myself?

Firstly, they're mine

and secondly they have huge sentimental value

and I want them close.

Can you give me the key card?

I'd like to help but there's a small problem.

They're not where you think they are.

Sorry?

I had to move our valuables to the safe at the bank.

You have authorization there. Godino will open it for you.

Authorized? They're mine!

What I don't get is why you're authorized.

Let's not talk about this right now.

-Why didn't you tell me before? -I'm sorry.

I had to use the safe for other business.

Fine. I'll speak to Godino.

-Blanca. Blanca, I need your help. -Excuse me.

Sure, has something happened?

This will sound strange but I need to open the safe at home

to help Sergio get ahold of some papers.

-And how can I help? -The thing is...

I need to get ahold of a magnetic keycard Eduard has.

A magnetic keycard?

Yes, he installed a very complex new security system

and that card opens the safe. I need to steal it.

-But, Macarena! -It'll only be for a few hours.

I tried to go about it a better way asking for my jewelry,

but he's moved them somewhere else and wouldn't give me the card.

-Why not take it while he's sleeping? -We've been separated a long time.

He'd be on alert as soon as I came in.

Maybe I spoke too soon. I'll fix this.

No, wait. I think I know how to do it.

-Is he in the club now? -Yes, will you help?

I'm going to try.

-Another surprise visit. -Mr. Godó.

-I'm sorry, I don't mean to bother you. -Please, Doña Blanca.

-Macarena just left, that's what I meant. -Oh, I didn't see her.

And I'd rather she didn't know I was here.

Of course.

Let's have a seat.

-Please. -Thank you.

The thing is, Mr. Godó,

I've wanted to talk to you for a while but never found the time.

It's about a delicate matter.

You can trust me. My lips are sealed.

I need help with my jewelry collection.

Macarena has promised to sell it in the new franchise,

but I'd like to produce a more extensive collection

and she doesn't have that kind of money.

I heard in the studio today,

that you have gotten behind Elena's new lingerie line.

-Is that true? -It is.

Okay.

I'd like to do something similar with you.

Bravo. For a minute there, I thought this was bad news.

Lord, no.

Bring some Vi Blanc, please. I have a very special guest today.

It's not every day I can toast a new business.

-Especially not with someone like you. -So, is that a, "yes"?

This is a, "let's start talking".

-What exactly do you need from me? -So we're done with the niceties?

-If that's okay with you, Blanca. -Of course, Eduard.

Okay, the situation is my collection is aimed at young, dynamic, happy women...

-Diana, the lawyer's here. -Sorry.

-How are you? -Me?

-Yes. -Happy.

-Sorry. -Don't worry.

-Let's go inside. -Sure.

We're going to do this.

Don Ricardo, this is Diana.

-You're the mother? -Yes.

-It's a pleasure. -Likewise, take a seat.

Don Ricardo has been here a while and I've told him...

what's been happening.

That's right and I'm afraid the situation isn't exactly what you thought it was.

Excuse me?

After what happened and the report Pedro made,

I'm sure we can have his custody taken from him.

But?

There's a legal objection to you taking care of your daughter.

Given your circumstances, you not being married,

-she'd be taken into state care. -Sorry?

In cases where the parents aren't considered fit,

the children are put in orphanages.

-I don't want Marta to go to an orphanage. -What do you mean by fit?

She's her mom, what more does she need?

I totally understand you, Pedro.

But legally Diana is a single mother with an unstable personal situation.

I'm truly sorry.

We also have another problem.

From what I've been able to find out,

the father accused Diana of abandoning the family home.

-Is that correct? -No, it isn't.

I had to leave because he was hitting me. I tried to take her with me.

-Diana-- -They took her from me.

Don Ricardo, you're here to help us.

And that's what I'm trying to do

by telling you all the issues we're facing.

-Come here. -But what...

-You took Eduard's jacket? -He bought a bottle of Champagne

when I told him I wanted him to invest in the collection.

-I then threw my drink over him. -What did you say to get his jacket?

I told him to give me it so I could wash it with rose water,

or the smell wouldn't come out.

He tried to say no but I almost took his arm off with the sleeve,

and he had to give in.

-Get the card, I have to go back. -Wait.

It's here. Oh, that's the sleeve.

-Hurry up. -Sorry, just a second.

-I've got it. -Done?

Here it is.

-The rose water. -Right!

Hold it.

-There. -Get back.

-I can now. -Here.

Here it is. Forgive me.

You didn't need to go to any trouble, it's happened before.

When you're helping me?

I'll look at the figures tomorrow and let you know.

I'll give you my card so that...

-Is something wrong? -I couldn't find my wallet.

Thank you so much. And not a word to Macarena, please.

Of course not.

Let me know if you want to take this forward.

-We'll give you a call. -Nice to meet you.

-Don't worry, we'll call another lawyer. -No.

We're not calling anyone else.

Look, I really appreciate everything you're doing,

but we're fighting a losing battle.

Please don't say that.

It was beautiful.

For the first time in my life, I've felt like the most special,

most loved woman in the world,

but it's not reality.

It's best we don't see each other again.

Diana, wait.

I don't want to lose you, ever.

Marry me.
