THE FOLLOWING IS A WORK OF FICTION

Good afternoon everyone.

Thank you very much

for sharing such an important moment
for me and my team.

Today I have to say thank you.

First of all, to Luciano,

my right hand, as I like to call him.

He's responsible for this outsider

having faced this adventure of politics.

What can I say
about my partner in the ballot?

He has consolidated
a large part of our alliance.

Thank you, Noriega. It was worth it.

Ana, without your unconditional support,

we would never have won the elections.

Another speech
written by your wife, Mr. President.

A very special thank you as well

to all of you who supported me

since I said to myself:
"I will be President of this country."

Especially those who encouraged me
to believe that it was possible.

Cheers!

- Cheers!
- Cheers!

- Thank you for taking this time.
- No need to thank me.

Most of the times,
it was the other way around.

Victor, I have to tell you something.

I've been thinking...

I'm not in a...

Do you know why you are here?

Do you know why I invited you?

Why?

Because you helped me
much more than all of them.

More than any advisor or minister.

Victor, can you listen to me
for a second?

The President's psychologist.

It should be an official position.

These are all wolves here.

Most of them are more enemies
than friends.

You are the only one inside my head.

Today, the real challenge
begins, Marcos.

Everything we did
up to this moment was crucial.

But from now on,
I need you more than ever.

I came here to make history, Marcos.

Let's make history.

So good...

Must you eat like that every day?

I barely eat lunch,
I need energy for the day.

You need to control
your cholesterol, Victor.

Saturated fats and double coffee,

that's the key to success.

I should put that in the book.

Are you really going through with that?

It's not a book about you.

It's about the campaign.

About my campaign.

If you're that worried about it,

I won't publish it
until after your term is over.

But it's a shame, really.

Because it says
all nice things about you.

I need you to support me,

to be on my side.

Only then, if you have some time
to spare, you can write.

Yes, Mr. President.

You know you can't smoke in here.

You know I'm more and more convinced

I don't believe in psychologists.

You are constantly
contradicting yourselves.

Besides, to be talking about
your problems with a stranger...

What for?

Therapy is a tool.

Perhaps what you
should be asking yourself

is what you expect to get out of it.

On the other hand,

some things you can only talk about
with a stranger.

Between the corporate traveling

and meetings, I am always
surrounded by strangers.

You had never mentioned your job before.

Have you ever felt so much rage

that it just eats your insides?

That the only thing that matters
is to find some way to numb it?

Even if it's just for one moment?

You feel rage?

Those are the stages in grief. Rage...

Denial, bargaining...

That's when you want to believe
that if you do this or that,

everything will be fine.

Then you realize that feeling
will never go away.

And then comes depression.

But then comes acceptance.

The pain doesn't go away.

That you can learn that,
for the most part,

life is unfair.

That's why I think I'm always
going to be stuck in denial.

If you didn't believe
you can get better,

you wouldn't be sitting here,

despite your opinions
about psychologists.

You idiot.

I don't care.

Do you know what would help me
to open up?

To smoke.

While I talk.

It relaxes me.

But yesterday, on national broadcast,

they said they would open dialogue,
that's good.

Same thing happened four years ago
and then?

The dialogue never happened.

It's OK if we don't trust this guy.

Victor Noriega will hand over
our natural resources, that's a fact.

He's a friend of the mining companies,
all the companies,

that group, we know
how this is going to end,

we can't just wait
during the first hundred days.

He needs to know it won't be that easy.

The good thing here
is Saenz' group is with us.

- That's good.
- But are they really?

They voted against the forestation law.

I just hope they won't hand over
the North region, I'm worried.

- Let's hope.
- They won't.

Let's talk to other parties.

Hi, honey.

- How are you?
- Fine.

You get a little line here
when you talk, I love it.

Come.

- You keep going against Noriega.
- Sure.

As long as you don't tell anyone
my dad works for him.

Your friends will kick me out.

It's not your fault
your dad is Noriega's psychologist.

- You're not even interested in politics.
- No.

I'm interested in you.

Let's go upstairs.

- Are you crazy? I have to go.
- Five minutes.

- I have to work, I get in...
- Just a moment.

- Shall we begin?
- Sure.

Figueroa is outside.

He says the transition team
in his Ministry

left a big mess.

What did he expect?

- What does he want?
- More money.

He should earn it first.

The Transport Union
called for a meeting.

Seems Palacios is eager to announce
some sort of action.

Leave that to Ramirez.

What we need to do now is push forward
with the reform concept.

I don't want to spend the first days
in office putting down fires.

This week the Environment Minister

should make some public statement

with the new legislation.

So soon?

You'll start your term
forcing the Congress against you.

Here...

Focus groups say that law
could be quite unpopular.

Here. Even among the young people,

who were so important
during the campaign.

They are saying we will become
the world's dumpster.

I was elected to lead,

not to listen to some focus groups

and carry on with the same system
of bargaining and accommodating.

I agree.

But you will need
some sort of bargaining.

Why don't we just wait a bit and see
how the general picture evolves?

Fine.

Tuesday press conference.

The Minister should talk on Wednesday

and lay it all out, that way
we can make some internal evaluation.

You will have to put me in touch

with every Governor
one by one this week.

Let's start with Gringo.

- Sure.
- And we move on to the North.

Perfect.

Figueroa will be key for that.

No, I'm fed up with Figueroa.

Put Sosa on this.

He was out of line the other day,
but he's good.

With bargaining.

What no one is talking about

is that even though the reform law
has not been officially announced...

This guy will screw us.

That's great.

Another box.

You will love this one. Look.

Did your dad get back to you?

- You wrote to him, right?
- Yes.

Yes, but he hasn't answered yet.

Can you tell me
who his celebrity patients are?

My dad doesn't have celebrity patients.

His patients are important people.

- Important...
- Yes.

Business owners, executives,

- that sort of people.
- People who have money.

Yes. With big responsibilities
and big problems.

But I don't talk to him that much.

He doesn't know we moved in together?

He doesn't even know

I have a girlfriend.

- Are you ashamed of me?
- No.

No, how could I? No.

I'm just worried
about what I might think of him.

He's changed a lot.

He's a complicated guy.

There's something you're not telling me.

He's not the same

ever since my mom...

They were like one single person.

Something in him just went away

with her, I feel.

Everything will be OK.

- You'll see.
- Sure.

I would like to meet my father in law.

Even if this is a big mess.

You get better every day, Carmona.

Thank you for the compliment,

but without the pool
I couldn't handle the stress.

Have you thought about taking
a vacation?

There's never time for that.

Perhaps not time,

but you definitely have the resources.

I'm a humble servant.

Do I have to talk
directly with Saenz then?

No, Renata is spotless.

She wouldn't accept a bribe
for her life.

That's why I'm thankful
for every day I can meet you

and not her.

How may I help you, my friend?

We can help each other.

You know they call lithium
the "white gold."

If this law can move forward,
there will enough for everyone.

I can tell you right now Renata
won't like the coalition's support.

But?

But I can give you Carranza,
Martinez and Sosa.

- What about Reggiani?
- Reggiani?

Reggiani is a vegan.

Vegan? Fuck me.

Without Reggiani
I don't have the numbers.

So...

You'll need to find some tofu
for the vegan.

I'll try.

Ana hates to ride shotgun.

It's like she enjoys challenging me.

Remember when in the first polls

they had you in fourth place?

I don't get it.

Ana told you not to read
the newspapers,

that you had the streets.

Yes, that's true.

That's what a good partner does,

they can solve the chaos.

I remember a lot of people
gave up on you then,

but not Ana.

I feel...

I feel Ana is here

just because of our agreement, you know?

I don't know if there's something real
between us yet.

Ana is driven by ambition.

And you're not?

Victor, Ana knows
more about you than anyone else.

All that which is eating you up

I'm sure is hard for her too.

Perhaps even harder than for you.

At one point, you stopped being a couple
and became partners.

The problem is you don't know
how to share that partnership.

I need to meet
with the President of the Supreme Court.

I need to talk
about something important.

I wanted to tell you
the other day in the inauguration,

but well...

It wasn't the right time.

I can't keep on seeing you.

I know an excellent colleague
I can refer to you.

No, Marcos, this is not the time.

The decision is final.

Right now you need someone

who can devote himself
exclusively to you.

I can't neglect my other patients.

This colleague specializes
in leadership therapy.

After all these years of mutual trust.

I can't talk about my shit
with just anybody.

Least of all now.

I understand but...

I'm not a man of politics.

I'm not the right one.

You need to set
your priorities straight.

This is my decision
and I'm asking you to respect it.

We'll talk about this next time,
I don't have time now.

Hi, honey...

Fuck.

Honey

I would love for us to meet.

We can meet at the bar
we went last time.

ROME

You only have 1448 days left in office.

What a wonderful motivational phrase.

Did you go
to the Women Entrepreneur's event?

You are wasting my talents

by having me do these things.

- Ana, I'm exhausted.
- I can see that.

My head is elsewhere.

Darling.

Help me.

Darling...

I need you.

Hi, dad.

How are...?

I would like to have you
over for dinner.

Are you free on Sunday?

Let me know, I can send
the address for the new place.

By the way, I want you to meet someone.

Let me know.

Hi, honey.

It's so good to hear from you.

I would love to see you.

I have some news as well.

And I would love to meet that someone.

Sunday is perfect.

Kisses.

Hello?

Hi Marcos, how are you?
Sorry about the time.

I want to schedule a meeting
for early tomorrow.

I explained to Victor
he needs to continue his therapy

with another professional.

I sent you the references
of a colleague that...

Yes, but now, as President,

he has to accept your resignation first.

I'm not an employee,
I'm his psychologist.

Look, you can talk to him
tomorrow during the session.

We'll come pick you up at 6 am.

Hello?

I don't like your tone, Luciano,
and I don't give last minute sessions.

Are you calmer now?

I swear someone was following me.

You're delirious.

What?

You're in politics now.

All eyes are on you.

No, it's not that.

Sure you didn't notice anything strange?

My husband? I don't think so.

He can't afford a private detective.

Be careful Marcos,
you're in a dirty atmosphere now.

Did you bring my stuff?

Did you know Elizabeth Taylor said
a diva should never arrive on time?

She left instructions that they should
take her late for her own funeral.

I didn't know you admired her.

It's a stronger dose than the last one.

Be careful.

Now you are the one

who is going to have to wait.

What would I do without you?

Manipulate another poor victim.

You're a poor victim now?

I don't know how you did it, Marcos.
You got into my head.

Hey, when you want us to stop, we stop.

Shut up and fuck me.

PRESIDENT'S OFFICE

I don't have much time
and I like to make the most of my day.

This isn't right, Victor.

I have this Minister
who's an idiot, Figueroa.

The one who made that remark
at the toast.

No, not now.

The problem isn't Figueroa.
That's just an example.

It's the space I give these guys.

Perhaps they'd respect you
if you didn't make decisions like this.

You sent people to look for me
at my house.

You're being dramatic.
It's just one moment.

It's not like I kidnapped you.

You are free to leave whenever you want.

I'm listening.

But this is our last session.

When we finish, a car
will leave you at your door.

No politics or religion
to break the ice.

- Don't you dare.
- I know.

What if I ask about his patients?

Professional secrecy.
He won't tell you anything.

Are you ready for this?

I'm a bit nervous. But yes.

You think he'll like me
as daughter in law?

I'm not nervous because of you.

It's because of him.

Is this everything?

These are the documents,
including the ones for the reform.

OK.

- I'll look at these later.
- Sure.

Thank you, Rocio.

Thank you.

Figueroa to Haiti, really?

I've been talking to him for weeks,
now I have to tell him this?

Don't worry, if you can't do it,
I'll get someone else.

We both know why you're doing this.

Figueroa's been
in the political system for years.

We don't want him against us.

He's practically an organ
in the body of power.

He's a cyst.

If I see a cyst, I take it out.

President Noriega is firing
a shot on his own feet.

Rumors say his decisions
have a high political cost.

Environmentalist organizations
have issued a statement

that implicates the government.

His campaign promises,

which earned him a high level
of social acceptance,

seem to be forgotten
in some government office.

The people who elected me
are now getting in my way.

The liberals look the other way.

And Granetti's party is laying low.

Even your friend got off the boat.

Marcos?

He referred me to a psychologist.

Can you believe that? Right now?

Another traitor...

We put up with worse things to get here.

If we have to dismantle
to reassemble, we'll do it.

As many times as it takes.

Let's go that way.

Let's go this way.

Let's go this way.

Slowly.

One.

And this way.

Hello.

Marcos!

- How are you?
- How are you doing?

Good.

Here, with the Goddess.

Hello.

Look, she's a little anxious.

Nobody wants to ride her anymore.

I brought the payment
for the last two months.

- No, that's not...
- Come on.

Okay...

- Thank you.
- Hello.

Have you thought about selling her?

No.

None of this really worked.

What?

Of course it did.

Camila has always been very happy here.

Yes, maybe.

Right?

Shit.

Put Victor on the phone.

The President is busy.

This has to stop, you hear me?

Put Victor on the phone.

I can't put you through.

The President is busy right now.

SOFIA INCOMING CALL

We can have dinner just the two of us.

I'm not hungry.

Will you turn down
my romantic dinner idea?

With all this risotto,
we can have ten romantic dinners.

I know what you're going to say.

It's very late, you need to rest.
Come to bed.

I can't go to bed because
of this piece of shit they wrote.

The reform?

I can't announce it with this speech.
They'll hate me.

Do you need some help?

I need not to be surrounded
by useless people.

You're stressed.

Why did you leave, Dorrego?

I don't know who wrote this,
but you should fire him tomorrow.

The problem with this speech is
it tries to convince people

that the reform is a positive thing.

You are the President,
not a car salesman.

Should we start from scratch?

From scratch, yes. Son of a bitch.

What are you doing here?

How did you get in?

Don't worry, Marcos.

The men outside are with me.

You can't come here like this,
we didn't have a session today.

From now on, I decide
when we see each other.

Take a seat.

You need to work

with those who have the knowledge
and experience.

That is the only way for the country
to grow in a sustainable way.

What are you going to do with that?

Is it because of the antidepressants?

Or because of the opioids you take
to calm down the side effects?

Are you spying on me?

I know everything about you.

Your addiction to pills, Veronica.

I know everything about Camila, Sofia.

What do you want?

I want you to take a seat.

We are not selling cheap
nor are we giving anything away.

The lithium is ours.

And it will be us,
our children and grandchildren,

who will benefit from that wealth.

Marcos...

I'm not here to take therapy sessions.

The sessions were just an excuse
to get closer to you.

Because I know you're the right one
for the work we need.

What work?

You helped Victor get to power.

You're in a privileged position
to access him and manipulate him.

You're going to do exactly
what we tell you to do.

What if I refuse?

Sofia doesn't have to pay for all this.

Don't mess with my daughter.

We know what you did.

You have a lot to lose.

Don't force me to get them in.

Victor is no longer my patient.

Get him back.

See you soon, Mr. Psychologist.
