Original subtitles

It was Lucas' idea to come live with me, not mine.

PREVIOUSLY

I give you my permission to go to Barcelona.

We'll call you every day.

I'm staying here with you.

The phone was next to the reservoir that was poisoned.

[Manuela] The kid that works at Las Sabinas found it buried in the mud.

No one can move any evidence if you don't give the order.

It's been stolen.

-[♪ tense instrumental music playing] -I brought you a gift.

-Your offer has been very generous, Paca. -I'll tend the land as it deserves.

Paloma, I haven't complained

about the green conversion.

But if it's not possible…

If we want to be competitive, there is no other way.

That land loses value each year.

Right. And you would buy it as a favor?

I have enough resources to make it thrive. But you…

I've asked Paca to hire me as an agronomist. She's accepted.

I would tread carefully.

I'm such an idiot. You can't imagine how much I regret what I've done.

[♪ theme music playing]

RETURN TO LAS SABINAS

[♪ theme music concludes]

-[birds chirping] -[♪ soft piano music playing]

[exhales]

[both chuckle softly]

Are you staring at me while I sleep?

-No. -[laughs]

I caught you red-handed. Don't lie.

Don't be so full of yourself.

[chuckles] It's a bit creepy that you stare at me while I sleep.

All right, I'll admit it. I was staring at you.

You make me so happy…

that I can't stop staring at you.

Not convincing. Still creepy.

Stop messing with me.

I love it when you stare at me. I do that too.

[♪ music intensifies]

[alarm beeps]

[gasps, breathes heavily]

[door opens]

[birds chirping]

[footsteps approaching]

[♪ music concludes]

How are you feeling?

Better. The stitches don't hurt anymore,

and I managed to sleep through the night.

Did you have your checkup?

No. This afternoon.

But I'm sure everything's fine.

-Glad to hear. In fact-- -Miguel. I'm sorry, but…

-[♪ melancholic piano music playing] -Why are you here?

I mean, I understand and appreciate yesterday's visit, but…

you could've sent a text if you wanted to know how I felt.

There's nothing between us.

-Don't say that, please. -[Esther] But…

You broke up with me. We've canceled our wedding. Yesterday--

Esther, I just want to show you something and talk.

Show me what? Talk about what?

Please.

[♪ music concludes]

[footsteps approaching]

[Tomás] I was waiting for you.

I've brought the pay stubs for you to sign.

You forgot we had a meeting.

No. I'm just late.

You know what? I've been with Paloma Molina. I was surprised.

That girl really is… a very decent agronomist.

Hmm. Yes. Hiring her was a good idea.

Besides, that'll help you to get a hold of Las Sabinas, right?

Just don't waste too much time on that agricultural productivity charade.

We have other plans.

Half a minute sitting in my chair, and you think you're the mastermind.

We must avoid loose ends if we want our project to succeed.

If that means a charade, as you called it, here and there,

-we do it. Period. -[knocking on door]

Come in, Pilar.

I've brought some coffee.

Is my daughter in her room?

-[Pilar] No. She left with Miguel. -Where to?

[Pilar] I don't know. I just saw them leaving together.

-Thanks, Pilar. -[Pilar] You're welcome.

Should I find out where they are?

No.

You take care of my businesses. I'll take care of my family.

[♪ gentle piano music playing]

Is this necessary?

Well, you'll see for yourself.

Ready?

Yes, ready.

-[♪ music concludes] -Did you hang this?

Yes.

It broke years ago and…

[birds chirping]

…nobody has hung another one since.

I know you have very happy memories of this swing.

There is something I must say, and I needed it here again.

-I love you, Esther. -Miguel, don't…

Let me finish, please.

I'm really sorry I hurt you.

You have no idea.

I was such an idiot.

I want to go back to what we had.

We had so many plans, very good plans.

Remember?

-[♪ melancholic piano music playing] -Our house on the hill,

breakfasts in bed, walks in the fields.

Our adopted dog.

-Children… -Miguel, don't this to me, please.

We always talked about children. It was our dream.

I know you'll be the best mother ever. Just like you've been to Lucía.

Esther…

I want our children to play here and be as happy as you were.

This is our future.

I swear I'll give my life to make it come true.

So, forgive me.

And agree to marry me again.

[♪ music concludes]

I don't know. Perhaps it's lost. Have you looked for it thoroughly?

I looked everywhere. The cell phone is not there. It's been stolen.

[Dani] Hi.

I don't want to interrupt. Please, carry on.

I'm sure that, if it's been stolen,

it contained something incriminating. I don't know…

I'm starting to believe that Óscar was murdered.

[exhales]

What?

Nothing.

Your face says otherwise. Spit it out.

We've talked about this plenty of times, Manuela.

Álex, I'm sorry, I hate talking about this in front of you.

Whenever a new lead comes up, you consider it "the crucial lead."

Do you know why? Because you decided it wasn't an accident from the beginning.

Don't you think stolen evidence is suspicious enough?

It might have been some childish prank.

Right. What a coincidence that they took our evidence.

Dani, we only found Civil Guard fingerprints on the drawer.

So, the thief took the time to wear gloves and avoid leaving their own.

The window they allegedly used was not forced. Worst still,

the security cameras were switched off.

Do you still think it's some childish prank?

There are no images of the thief before breaking in through the window?

No. They switched the cameras off first.

But the CCTV system must have a password.

They knew it, then.

Then why did they use the window?

What if they didn't?

What if they left it open to make us believe they did?

-[inhales] -[Álex] Hmm…

Manuela, I bet it was someone from the station.

No. No way.

Dani, can anyone switch off the cameras remotely?

-Not anyone. -[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing]

But someone proficient in IT can.

[♪ music builds, fades]

[Amparo] Where are you going?

To run some errands in town.

You are not home very often.

-What? -Nothing.

What have you promised Julia to make her change her mind?

[scoffs] My daughter has her own opinions. She doesn't need to be bribed.

No offense. I didn't mean that.

What I'm saying is that the kids need close supervision

to continue on the right path, and you are never here.

There is no doubt that Julia would be better off with me.

That's what you think, is it? That's enough.

Don't you dare tell me again how to take care of my children.

That's what I mean, you're not taking care of them.

Says Antón Rivera's mom. Such a model citizen.

If I'm not with my children more often,

it's not because I don't want to, but because I have to provide for them.

Meanwhile, your son is living it up in Jamaica.

With the money from your grandchildren's home,

whom he abandoned without hesitation in order to flee with his lover.

Is that the son you took care of so well?

No. Don't say anything else.

-You are… -[♪ tense piano music playing]

I'll stop there because you are my kids' grandmother.

I've come to help you. Is this how you thank me?

Not that trick, Amparo.

I know it well now, after so many years.

Don't push it, because I can tell Lucas to stay and he won't leave.

Now you are threatening me.

When it comes to my children, I'll do whatever is necessary.

[♪ reflective instrumental music playing]

[birds chirping]

Esther, I can't stand this silence.

I thought you would like the swing.

I liked it. It was a beautiful gesture. Really. And what you've said as well.

But?

But I'm scared. I can't help it.

I understand if you can't forgive me, it's only logical, but…

ask yourself if you still love me.

Because that's what matters.

I do, and if you love me, we can get over this.

It's not that easy, Miguel.

Think about how fast our relationship was ruined.

-How can I know it won't happen again? -'Cause I swear I'll never let you down.

If you give me a chance, I'll show you that you can trust me again.

Tell me what to do, I'll do it.

But I won't give up, Esther.

What we had happens once in a lifetime. We can't let it go.

-Esther, I'm begging you-- -Perhaps…

Perhaps, with time. I don't know.

Everything happened so fast that I didn't have time to process it.

Sure…

Take all the time you need, hmm?

What matters is that I do.

I do still love you.

[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing]

-[bag rips] -[groceries thud]

Oh dear!

Hi.

-Gracia… -[sobs]

[♪ music concludes]

I didn't like that shit you tried to pull with Julia.

Nice to see you too. And I don't know what you're talking about.

You tried to convince her to leave her mother.

-I heard you. -Ha! [laughs]

Are you spying on people now?

This is my home, and I listen to whatever I please.

I just want the best for my grandchildren.

And their mom doesn't, hmm?

I can see right through you.

Are you "Grandfather of the Year" now?

Unbelievable. Where were you all these years?

Where were you when Lucas was three years old

and fell from a slide and broke his arm?

Or when Julia was admitted to hospital because of bronchiolitis?

Or birthdays, Christmases…?

And your daughter…

Antón and I have been her only family for the last 20 years.

It's true that we've been estranged from each other.

[laughs] You didn't even speak on the phone.

-We are fixing it now. -The damage is already done.

Your son did that, that bastard,

-when he left them in the street. -Don't insult him.

Are you really going to defend him? Seriously?

If you do, you are both scumbags.

I'd be gutted if my grandson were to live with someone like that.

You're horrible.

-It's my last name. -Right.

-[sighs] -[birds chirping]

-Are you feeling better? -I am.

Thank you so much.

I'm sorry about the scene. So embarrassing.

Crying over a tomato can. You probably think I'm a nutcase.

-[chuckles] -Don't worry. I'm not thinking that.

I know what you're going through.

I heard about your father.

I would have liked to come by, but I didn't want to be a bother.

You wouldn't have been a bother.

Well, I owe you a visit then. And that coffee we didn't have.

Guillermo, my husband, says your sister will work with him at El Acebuche.

That's right.

That's also one of my worries. She will have to double her efforts.

We really need her at Las Sabinas.

There are more problems than money there, Pilar.

We've been trying to reach an agreement with the suppliers

in order to delay some payments for seeds and organic fertilizer,

but, since nobody knows us, they don't trust us.

I'm so sorry.

But I'm sure there is a solution.

For that, I'm sure there is one.

But have you got any more problems?

[inhales]

[chuckles]

I divorced my husband.

But that's obvious, right?

No. I didn't know.

The problem with it is that Lucas, my eldest,

is going to Barcelona to live with his grandmother.

-And that really hurts. -[♪ somber piano music playing]

I understand.

-But that's life, isn't it? -Yeah.

Children fly the nest,

especially if they live in a small town like this.

You did it as well.

Yeah. [sniffs]

But so many things have happened to me since I got here and…

these last few days have been really tough.

I'm sorry. Sorry.

First, I cried, and now I'm bothering you with my problems. It's not fair.

You aren't. When we were young and had problems, we'd tell each other.

[chuckles] Right.

Pilar,

I know it's been a while since we last saw each other,

but do you think I'm a bad mother?

Never.

Never.

They even made me doubt that.

[tuts]

[exhales]

[♪ music concludes]

-Let me help. -[chuckles] It's fine, Mom.

I've got plenty of time to get to the checkup. There's no need.

Yes, there is.

You should have continued resting, even if you think you are fine.

[chuckles]

Have you forgotten I'm a doctor?

Of course not, but you might've. You're overconfident.

No. I assure you I haven't done anything detrimental to the recovery process.

Are you sure?

What are we talking about exactly?

I know you've been out with Miguel.

Yes. Yes.

We've seen each other. So?

What did he want?

To get back together and carry on with the wedding.

Hmm. What did you say?

Nothing, Mom. I said nothing.

So, you have doubts.

Wouldn't you?

-You know what I think about him-- -Yes, Mom.

I know everyone's opinion very well.

You haven't let me finish.

You said you were like me.

That you wouldn't give up until you got what you wanted.

Well, you got it.

Miguel is at your feet again.

Look at you.

You haven't smiled since you two broke up.

What are you waiting for? Can't you say yes and be happy?

This is just like with the jacket, right?

You see that I have a problem and you help me.

[Paca] What?

Mom, you had something to do with Gracia dumping Miguel, right?

-[♪ tense instrumental music playing] -Yes.

You are my daughter. I won't let you be unhappy.

And how did you do it?

It doesn't matter.

The outcome is what's important.

Mom…

You don't want to know, Esther.

I'm serious. You don't want to know.

What if Gracia tries to get back together with Miguel?

She won't.

An asteroid will hit Earth before that happens.

Believe me.

Thank you, Mom.

Thank you.

[♪ music intensifies]

-[♪ music fades] -[birds chirping]

May I come in?

Sure. How are you?

Manuela told me that you helped arrest the guy who attacked Esther.

I'm fine. Esther, on the other hand… Bless her.

But all turned out well in the end.

Thank God that beast will rot in jail.

All those stories should end up that way.

They shouldn't even begin.

I wanted to say sorry. Gracia had just broken up with me and…

I took it out on you.

Lately, I screw up with everyone.

-Sorry. -[Tano] It's fine.

I didn't measure up either.

I should be more empathetic about the things you're going through,

not starting useless fights.

[chuckles softly]

Brothers?

Brothers. [chuckles]

Sorry, man, but Elena is about to arrive, and I've got to prepare for the meeting.

It's fine. I've been doing nothing all day, I have to work.

Are you telling me that you've been slacking off?

No.

There's something you haven't told me.

I've been with Esther.

Ah. Does that mean…?

It means I've hurt her a lot, and that she's scared.

Right. Well, that's normal.

But I'm sure you'll get over it.

-You are Miguel and Esther. Mm? -[laughs]

I hope so, Tano.

The Larreas are lucky guys, right?

Lucky?

We've found two amazing women.

[♪ melancholic piano music playing]

-[grunts] Goddamned wheelchair. -[♪ music fades]

[inhales sharply]

Grandma told me you've been really rude to her.

Look at the old hag, trying to turn you against me as well.

-Of course, behind my back. As usual. -She didn't tell anyone, just me.

Look…

I might not be very subtle, but I say what I see, face to face.

I'm sure that emotional blackmailer didn't tell you

she tried to make your sister change her mind.

Huh?

Your face confirms it.

I'm sorry, but I don't… No.

I don't like her.

You judge her without knowing her.

She's always been there for us. She's never let us down.

Despite living far away.

Unlike me, right?

Good. You got it.

That's why I'm glad your sister's staying and why I'm sorry to see you go.

I would have liked to…

to get to know you both better.

Right.

But what's important here is what you want to do.

That's what your mother decided, right?

That's why it pissed me off that your grandma tried to convince Julia.

But if…

you don't mind her meddling, I won't say anything else.

This is a trick, right?

You act nice, I soften up, and you convince me to stay.

What a wild imagination. I'm not that twisted.

The only twisted one here is your precious grandma.

Are you really sure you want to leave?

Yes. I'm sure.

I wouldn't like for you to make the same mistake I did.

[♪ emotional instrumental music playing]

I abandoned my daughters and I had to live with that mistake for 20 years.

It's been hard, you know?

Now I've got a second chance, but…

all those years we weren't together…

I won't be able to get them back.

You see? Your grandma was right about that.

[grunts]

[♪ music concludes]

[sighs]

-[♪ soft pop music playing over speakers] -[indistinct chatter]

If you're here because of the insurance, I'm not done with the numbers you needed.

No, it's not that.

What are you doing with Esther?

I don't think that's your business, Tomás.

Miguel, you don't deserve her.

Haven't you hurt her enough already?

Aren't you listening? You're not the one I have to talk to about this.

-[♪ tense piano music playing] -What? Are you going to hit me?

What, do you care about Esther?

Esther is my friend. If she gets hurt, I'll stand up for her.

Look, Tomás. I messed up. I did.

But I'll do everything I can to get another chance.

Because, despite everything that's happened, we love each other.

And I'm sure that has nothing to do with you.

Or do you think that, if we stay broken up, you have a chance?

[whispers] Goodbye.

ESTHER, THERE'S SOMETHING YOU SHOULD KNOW. TELL ME WHEN AND WHERE.

[♪ music concludes]

What's wrong with you? You are somewhere else.

I talked to my brother earlier about the man who stabbed Esther.

And…

I remembered my father.

I don't talk about him often because…

he was abusive.

I don't know. At the beginning, he wasn't like that. Uh...

But then, he lost his land, started drinking,

more and more, ended up being an alcoholic…

[inhales deeply] …and took it out on us and my mom.

In fact,

he turned her into his punching bag.

[♪ emotional instrumental music playing]

I remember that, in the mornings,

we could cope, but at night…

Miguel and I wouldn't sleep

because we were afraid of leaving Mom alone with him.

We didn't know if she would get up the next morning.

Tano, my love, I'm sorry.

No, don't. Anyway… [sniffs]

[exhales] What I meant to say is that what we've done with Atenor…

-Hmm. -…is amazing.

But the fact that in my town

there's been a domestic violence victim

has got me thinking.

Do you think we could help women like Lourdes?

Yes, of course. But what exactly do you mean?

I mean, we could…

set up a safe house in Manterana or San Luis.

We could ask Social Services to manage it. What do you think?

You never cease to amaze me.

Inside you…

there is so much more than a great mayor. There is an even better man.

[♪ reflective piano music playing]

Thank you, Tano. You are very generous.

-What are you thinking about? -Hmm?

Nothing.

Just about what you said.

Come here.

[♪ music concludes]

I'll be right back.

All right. And Arana, did he see anything?

No. He went to San Luis with his girlfriend's family that night.

[cell phone buzzes]

[♪ tense piano music playing]

PACA COME SEE ME THIS AFTERNOON. MY HOUSE.

[Núñez] There was nobody here, and the thief took advantage of it.

It must have been a coincidence. They couldn't know we'd go help Esther.

They didn't improvise.

Switching off the cameras was premeditated.

Whoever it is is close. They know our movements and know what to do.

[cell phone buzzes]

I'll have to take the afternoon off. A private matter. Can you cover for me?

-Sure. No problem. -[Núñez] Thanks.

Give me a minute. I'll be right back.

[Tomás] Paca.

What happened?

-Nothing yet, but you can stop it. -[♪ music concludes]

Miguel wants Esther to forgive him so they can get back together.

You must do something to stop him.

Do I? What would you do?

Show Esther the pictures of Miguel with Gracia.

Right. The pictures.

Come on, Paca. He's a bastard.

-Let it go. -What?

I tried to show her, and she didn't want to see them. We'd better leave it.

-What? Leave it? -It's her life.

It's not your job to make sure she's happy. It's mine, I'm her mom.

I insist. It's not your business.

Sooner or later, Miguel will hurt her again.

If you won't lift a finger, fine. I will.

If you dare to do anything, you are out of the project.

-[♪ tense music playing] -No. You won't do that

-It's yours as much as it's mine. -Right. But I'm the boss.

Let me remind you…

that without me, you wouldn't have the Egeas' land.

Life is tough.

But don't worry, pain will make you stronger.

You might be surprised. Money isn't everything.

All right, I'll add something else.

I'll end your contract

-and ruin your reputation as a lawyer. -[laughs]

[Paca] Come on, Tomás. If you love her that much,

let her be happy.

You can wish it with all your heart, but it'll never happen.

She'd rather be with a monkey than with you.

If I'm out, I can ruin your project. Hmm?

Do you know what I am capable of if someone goes against me?

No.

No. Because nobody's dared yet.

[footsteps receding]

[♪ music concludes]

What's all this?

This is Lola, Gracia. From the cooperative.

-[Lola] Pleasure. -Same.

She convinced the supplier to sell us the products.

-The seeds. -It wasn't just myself.

The cooperative handled it and we acted accordingly.

We wouldn't leave you high and dry.

The best part is that the supplier charges us 5% in advance,

but postpones the rest until after harvesting.

Thank you so much, Lola.

How did you make this miracle possible? They weren't willing to change their mind.

We suggested that the cooperative might stop buying from them.

-Nice strategy. -[Lola chuckles]

Did you tell them about our situation? Or was it Richi?

No. It was Pilar.

And everyone lent a hand.

Hey, Lucas.

[Lucas] What's up?

Well, the whole town's pitching in to help them. Cool, isn't it?

But, hey, I won't carry those bags on my own, right?

Gracia and myself will help. Come on.

[Lola laughs]

[♪ reflective instrumental music playing]

Hi.

[Tomás] You shouldn't be here.

You should rest and recover.

[chuckles] I know. But I wanted to work, and the doctor said I was fine.

You haven't been discharged yet, am I right?

Tomás, my patients need me.

A substitute you don't know is not the same as your own doctor.

They think about what's best for them, and you should think what's best for you.

And that's exactly what I'm saying.

I think that going back to my former life will be useful in order to…

put everything that happened behind me.

He was in that life.

You wanted to tell me something?

[♪ reflective instrumental music continues]

If you dare to do anything, you are out of the project.

It's nothing. I heard about a new hotel in the mountains

and I thought you could go there and rest.

You could have just told me that on the phone, couldn't you?

-True. -[chuckles]

Tell my mom I don't need to be monitored.

All right? I'm fine.

You got me. [laughs]

Anyway, thank you.

For the hotel and for worrying about me.

Well, I have to go.

-See you around. -See you around.

[♪ mysterious note plays]

-[birds chirping] -[♪ tense piano music playing]

Good afternoon, Paca.

[Paca] Hi, Núñez.

-Would you like some coffee? -[Núñez] No.

[breathes shakily]

[phone ringing]

Yes, Manuela?

I'm sorry to bother you, but José Fernández, the guy on the hill,

is complaining about his neighbor's goats breaking down his fence again.

And he only wants to talk to you.

Well. That's unfortunate. It'll take me a while to get there, I'm in San Luis.

No problem. I'll try to calm him down. All right, bye.

[Núñez] Bye.

[breathes heavily]

[♪ music concludes]

Promise me that you'll study in Barcelona.

Also that, once in a while, you'll go to a museum or to the theater.

I sound like a mom, a pain in the ass, but take advantage of being there.

Will you miss me?

No.

I won't, because I'm not going.

Not after seeing how some strangers helped us with our land.

And not just that, Mom. There is a lot going on.

You need me by your side, and I need you by mine.

You'll have to continue being a pain in the ass.

-[laughs] -[♪ lively instrumental music playing]

[kisses]

-[Lucas] Dammit, Mom, stop it. -Deal with it. [kisses]

-[♪ music concludes] -Before I forget,

sign the water authorization for Las Sabinas.

Will you allow them to use your water?

Yes. I'm not gaga yet. It is a favor for Paloma.

Thank you, Mom. You know Paloma means a lot to me.

Hi. I didn't know you were here too.

Why the mystery?

Silvia, I called you because I want the three of you to listen to me.

These have been…

very tough days for me.

But, in all this time, I didn't feel alone for a minute, for a second.

Nor neglected or not protected enough.

You all took care of me.

And now I understand that being together is bigger than Miguel and me.

We are a family, and families don't give up.

So, I don't want to give up either.

And, Miguel, that's why…

-I want us to be together. -[♪ gentle instrumental music playing]

And I hope that empty swing stops being empty someday.

[chuckles softly]

Nothing to say?

What about this?

Does this mean we'll have a wedding?

Silvia, yes! We always have to explain everything.

Yay! I'm so happy! Not only because I had paid

for the dress already.

Me too. I had already paid for the reception.

Anyway, we'll need to push back the date a bit.

I'll let the catering know. I don't think it'll be a problem.

I'm the happiest man in the world right now.

The fact that you trust me again is…

I'm speechless.

[♪ music concludes]

[footsteps approaching]

You haven't forgotten anything? God forbid you should come back.

I double-checked everything. I don't want to see you again either.

Well, I'll carry the suitcase.

I don't know what you've done in order to change Lucas' mind.

But you haven't made me change mine.

It's a mistake that the children stay here,

in the middle of nowhere.

Haven't you understood yet? It's their choice.

Not you, not me, not their mother. Nobody else but them.

Well… I should go.

I hope you take care of them this time.

I will. They are my only grandchildren. They are my family.

[Amparo chuckles]

Well, Amparo, have a nice trip.

I hope you understand what I did. I just want what's best for the children.

Right.

I'll call you once a week, even if it's just to see you on a screen.

-[laughs] -[Amparo] Hmm?

[cell phone ringing]

Esther?

Yes, she must be in Las Sabinas, but there are areas with no signal.

Yes, thank you.

But both of us? Paloma and myself?

Yes. All right.

Thank you. See you later.

[♪ reflective piano music playing]

What's wrong? Why the long face?

It's Núñez.

I think he has something to do with the cell phone theft.

How? Why?

He lied.

Yesterday, he told me he had to leave due to a private matter, but instead,

he went to see Paca Utrera.

When I called him…

he said he was in San Luis.

But that doesn't link him to the phone.

That doesn't, no. [inhales deeply]

But when I spoke to Miguel about Paca and the reservoir poisoning,

he took me off the case.

What if Emilio was right and she poisoned the reservoir?

What if Óscar discovered something or had anything to do with it?

Paca is very powerful.

Perhaps Óscar had something in his phone that incriminated her

and Núñez covered it up.

But then…

your sergeant would have been covering up a crime.

Shit.

Núñez…

taught me everything I know.

-[♪ somber instrumental music playing] -He's been like a father to me.

I can't doubt him.

But do you think he could be behind my brother's death?

No.

It can't be.

[sniffles, breathes heavily]

[sobs]

Thank you very much.

[♪ music concludes]

Blasco.

See you around. Bye.

I've talked to Esther.

-I'm glad to see that greed won over love. -[chuckles]

What I said wasn't personal. It's just that I don't like to mix

family and business.

In fact, Miguel will be out of ours.

Really?

Let's say it's my little revenge for what he's done to Esther.

What did Blasco want?

He's confirmed the Egeas' land is rich in rare-earth elements as well.

We can speed up the mining development.

Microchip companies will love us. [chuckles]

Everything indicates that Las Sabinas will have similar characteristics.

So, when you get hold of that land, we'll have all the pieces of the puzzle.

-[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing] -[inhales deeply] Who would have thought

those cheap concessions would be so beneficial?

-We are a family of visionaries. -[chuckles]

But Blasco is worried about Atenor Forest.

It looks like the seam runs through the whole forest area.

And since it has been declared a protected area,

it won't be easy to get more concessions.

Don't worry. Everything is under control. And look,

you won't need to sleep with anyone this time.

Manterana will change a great deal.

Hmm. This green place with clean air will become arid,

full of pollution and toxic waste.

Are you reconsidering?

Not at all.

[chuckles] Right.

-This world is unfair. -Exactly.

That mine will make me richer than I could have ever imagined.

-[♪ music concludes] -[Paloma] It is exactly the same.

I can see us here, with our mothers.

Mom would push us and say we would touch the sky and the sun.

And my mom would sit there, on the grass, always smiling.

-She was so happy… -Yeah. And…

how did you go about hanging it again?

It wasn't my idea. It was Miguel.

He hung it and brought me here to ask me to go ahead with the wedding.

Does that mean that…?

I said yes.

[♪ gentle piano music playing]

-I'm so happy, I really am. -Thank you.

-Congratulations. -Thank you.

I realized that I can't imagine my life without him.

And I can't imagine it without you either.

I need you in my life. Like…

when we were kids.

[♪ hopeful instrumental music playing]

It's time to leave certain things behind.

And look towards the future. Don't you think?
