Not even your fortune can make up

for how disgusting I thought you were from the first time you kissed me.

I felt so sick…

PREVIOUSLY

…that I had to make an effort not to throw up.

[Esther] Someone stole that medication from my office. I know it was you.

So, either you tell Gracia everything today, or I'll do it myself.

[Gracia] My gynecologist.

She's found traces of a strange drug in my blood.

Someone must have been giving it to me behind my back.

The Molinas think that Carmen poisoned Gracia.

Miguel, it wasn't Carmen. I've talked to him this morning.

-[Miguel] "Him," who? -Tano.

-Goddamn bastard! -[grunts]

-[Tano pants] -[Miguel] Tell her.

Carmen didn't give you the pills. It was him.

[gasps, sobs]

I lied to you. I pretended I was pregnant.

I don't want to see you again.

RETURN TO LAS SABINAS

[birds chirping]

[baby crying in the distance]

[♪ calm piano music playing]

[crying continues]

Did he wake you up?

No, not at all.

Go back to bed, I'll take care of him.

Make sure to hold his head.

He knows how to hold himself, he's very smart.

Well, he takes after his mother.

I'm the luckiest man in the world.

-[♪ tense instrumental music playing] -[gasps]

[pants softly]

[keys jingling]

[engine starts]

[Núñez] We've reported that he has fled in his vehicle.

Neither Gracia nor your aunt have heard from him.

Council hasn't either.

The judge has issued an arrest warrant.

Yes. We've tried to track him down, but his phone is switched off.

So many hours have gone by, he could be anywhere by now.

Hm. We've reported his car's license plate.

It won't be easy for him to go unnoticed.

Do you know anyone who could help him hide?

Any friends or relatives?

He has a distant cousin in Donostia, on his father's side.

Your mother informed us. We've spoken to him, and nothing.

[sighs]

Would you rather take the day off?

Do you think I can't handle it?

-It's not that. Of course you can-- -Right.

It's because of Dani, Álex…

and now this.

I won't lie,

-it's hard. -[♪ reflective instrumental music playing]

To me, Tano has always been a role model.

And to see him become…

what he's become

hurts.

-[Núñez] I know, that's why-- -Sergeant.

I won't go home until we find him.

-[♪ music concludes] -It's personal, yes.

But don't forget that, above all, I'm a Civil Guard officer.

Very well. Let's get to work, then.

[♪ soft mysterious instrumental music playing]

I've sent Peña and Garrido here.

We could look for him around Mount Galó too.

We used to camp out there with my father when we were kids.

[sighs]

Let's go.

[♪ tense instrumental music playing]

[engine revving]

[siren wailing]

-[♪ music fading out] -[approaching footsteps]

-[Gracia] Hi. -[Miguel] Hi.

I thought you would be at home.

Me too.

It's better to keep our minds busy, right?

It's going to be difficult.

Yes.

Miguel,

-I… -[exhales]

[huffs]

…reported Tano.

[gulps] You did what you had to.

I spoke to Manuela. I don't know if--

Yes, yes. I spoke to her. She said he's run away.

It's crazy.

How didn't I realize?

[clicks tongue] Don't overthink this.

I think I'm the problem.

Why are you the problem?

Because history is repeating itself, Miguel.

-Antón put Lucas in danger. -[Miguel sighs]

And look at what Tano has done.

What am I doing wrong?

You have nothing to do with what Antón or Tano have done.

But if I'd realized…

Nobody did, Gracia, nobody.

I don't even recognize my brother. He's not my brother. He's someone else.

The only thing that helps me understand is that…

jealousy is an illness.

That's what happened to Tano.

What…

happened to Esther.

[♪ soft, tense instrumental music playing]

To Esther? What's the matter with Esther?

She was never pregnant.

What?

She thought she was losing me and made it up.

But the miscarriage?

She faked that, too.

[breathes deeply]

So, you see.

The two people we shared our lives with went mad right in front of us.

I also think I did something wrong.

What are you going to do?

[Miguel exhales] It's already done.

My marriage is over.

-I'm so sorry. -[clicks tongue] Forever.

[Paloma] I'm sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop.

What happened?

[♪ music concludes]

[birds chirping]

Lucía!

I wanted to see you.

You left home very quickly yesterday and you forgot a lot of things.

I'll pick them up with my father some other day.

I brought you some clothes.

And some T-shirts of mine that I know you love.

I don't want them, thanks.

[♪ soft, emotional instrumental music playing]

Honey, you know that to me,

-you've always been like a daughter. -What's wrong with you?

I'm sorry. I lost my mind.

Right. You lost it, and you didn't care that my dad and I suffered?

Esther, that baby was real to me.

And I could forgive that. But what I'll never forgive

is that you tore my father apart.

-Lucía, I felt like… -I don't care what you felt.

I don't want to hear it.

I can't even look at you.

[footsteps receding]

[automated voice over phone] The number you are calling is currently unavailable…

-[♪ music concludes] -[approaching footsteps]

[exhales]

[Emilio smooches] Good morning, blondie.

I didn't hear you getting up.

Have you been here for long?

-Since 5:00 a.m. -I see.

I've called Tano several times, but…

his phone is switched off.

I can help you with the bar today.

No. No, no, thanks. I'm not opening.

Well, I'm not good with people, but I know

how to use the coffee maker, how to serve draft beer… I think.

And who would want to come?

Everybody.

Everyone will understand that you have nothing to do with what Tano did.

I do, though.

No. You raised him in the best way you could. Same as Miguel.

No, Emilio, no. It's just that…

I knew things about Tano that…

What?

[hesitates] It doesn't matter. I don't feel like talking.

You have to let it out. Don't keep it in, it'll cause you more pain.

Mm.

[♪ soft mysterious instrumental music playing]

[Silvia] I knew that Tano

was convinced that Gracia's baby was his brother's.

He told me himself. He was deranged, you know?

I told him to go to a therapist, and he assured me that he would.

-That he had realized it was crazy. -Right, but did he go?

I thought he did.

When you gave them the crib,

and I saw how he took care of Gracia,

I thought that… he'd stopped believing in this absurdity. And…

I stopped worrying. [sobbing] I shouldn't have.

[Emilio] Hey.

[sobs]

[sniffles]

Tano has always been

so jealous of Miguel.

Especially when it came to his relationship with Gracia.

-No. Please, Silvia… -I… don't… I…

-[Emilio] Don't blame yourself like I did. -[crying]

I've been blaming myself my whole life.

And how did that serve me?

[crying]

I can't. I can't. [cries]

Of course, you can, Silvia. Of course…

Look at me. Look into my eyes.

Silvia. Silvia.

-[♪ emotional instrumental music playing] -[sobs]

-Look. Are you looking? -[Silvia continue sobbing]

You have me.

We'll get over this together.

How can I get over the fact

that my son is just like his father?

[gasps, sobs]

[♪ music concludes]

[♪ mysterious instrumental music playing]

We used to camp out down the end of this path.

Let's go get him.

[birds chirping]

[♪ music fading out]

I'm here, Paca.

Tell me what you want.

I've always admired how to-the-point you are.

Look, Paca, I've never needed you to kiss my ass, and now is no exception.

Tell me. I'm in a hurry.

I've been thinking, and although you and my daughter have parted ways,

you could continue working at El Acebuche.

Are you serious?

I don't see why not.

Like when you called off the wedding.

Sure. 'Cause the situation is exactly the same, right?

Well, there are some nuances…

Yes, of course there are.

Know which ones I mean?

Perhaps that you helped with this whole lie.

Put yourself in my shoes.

Esther is very important to me.

-I had to help her. -[scoffs]

-Do you know how you could've helped her? -[♪ tense instrumental music playing]

By telling her not to make up a pregnancy and a miscarriage.

Wouldn't you have done the same for Lucía?

No, Paca. Not like that.

You will never see me working here again.

You hear me? But I'm a man of my word.

I'll continue supporting you financially until your situation improves.

Thank you very much,

but I don't need your charity.

I think that with the sale of Gracia's share of Las Sabinas,

I can get by.

Good.

In that case, I won't insist.

Did you try to keep him working for you?

Of course.

Work and your relationship are two different things.

[sighs] I can't believe it.

Don't be so dramatic.

Besides, you heard him, he refused.

Mom, I'm tired of you always doing whatever you feel like.

Always thinking about you and only you.

Look who's talking.

[huffs]

What now?

-[♪ music concludes] -Esther!

Are you serious?

Yes, yes. Everything was a lie. The pregnancy, the miscarriage…

And she wants me to forgive her!

[exhales] I don't know what's wrong with people.

They are all nuts.

I will never forgive Tano.

When I think about it, I…

What? Stop talking nonsense.

Are you justifying what he did?

Of course not.

-I'm just saying… -Yes. You are.

What are you doing?

[Lucas] He is a bastard.

Lucas, don't do it.

-[over phone] The number you are calling… -Say something!

…unavailable. Please, leave a message.

[line beeps]

You're the worst thing that happened to my mother and to all of us.

I hate you with all my heart. I hope you vanish forever, bastard.

-[sighs] -[sighs]

Why didn't you say anything?

Because I agree. My uncle is a miserable person.

And Esther is no different.

They did terrible things,

-yes. -[♪ reflective instrumental music playing]

But we loved them until a few days ago.

-What's the matter with you today? -Yeah, why are you acting like a saint?

Because you are idiots.

Someday, we'll have to forgive them.

-[scoffs] What are you talking about? -Like Mom and Paloma forgave Grandpa.

Because that's what good people do.

Right now, we're angry and hating on Esther and Tano.

A lot.

But we're not bad people, unable to forgive anybody.

At least, I don't want to be.

[footsteps receding]

-[♪ music concludes] -[Manuela] I'm sorry I wasted our time.

No, we didn't waste time. It was a good idea.

Can you think of any other place?

No. And Peña and Garrido haven't found Tano either.

Goddammit. Where is he?

We have no choice but to widen our search area.

We are going back to Manterana.

[♪ tense instrumental music playing]

[door closing]

-[pants] -[♪ music fades]

[cell phone chimes]

[keypad beeping]

[Lucas over phone] You're the worst thing that happened to my mother and all of us.

I hate you with all my heart. I hope you vanish forever, bastard.

[breathes deeply, pants]

[birds chirping]

[♪ music fading out]

Leave it. Let me do it.

[Esther] I can do it.

I can do it! Didn't you hear me?

-[sighs] -[Paca] Honey, I know you are upset

about Miguel, but try not to worry.

-We'll get over it together. -But I don't want that.

Honestly, Esther, I don't know what's gotten into you.

What’s wrong is that a girl who I’ve watched grow up

doesn't want to see me anymore.

Oh, and that's my fault?

Mom, not only did you not stop me,

but you also covered up for me and encouraged me.

Let me get this straight,

are you blaming me for being a good mother?

No. A good mother would have never blackmailed Gracia into leaving Miguel.

You didn't complain back then.

A good mother wouldn't have let me marry a man who loves someone else.

-I told you not to do it! -If you'd been a good mother,

you wouldn't have let me get away with that fake pregnancy craziness.

Come on, Mom, couldn't you see I'd lost my mind?

Goddammit! I did! But you didn't listen.

-[♪ soft tense instrumental music playing] -What happened was that it suited you.

Right? You wanted to control me.

The more insecure I was,

the more I depended on you.

What are you saying?

-Everything I did was for you. -No, Mom. It was for you.

You don't care about anything other than yourself.

You don't mind stepping over anyone.

But it's over, Mom.

I'm leaving.

I'm leaving El Acebuche

and I'm leaving Manterana.

[scoffs]

What's that nonsense?

I can't take it anymore.

Do you want to leave?

Very well.

Then, leave.

Go away.

Let's see how things go when you are on your own.

[♪ music concludes]

No, no, no. We are closed today.

Come in.

[Nati] Any news?

No. [exhales] None.

Ah, Nati…

Do you remember when Tano was learning to walk?

I do.

He would fall down all the time.

But he would never cry.

He was so little…

so shy…

[soft chuckle]

I don't know what I'm going to tell Gracia when I see her.

I don't know if I'll be able to even look at her.

She won't hold anything against you.

But I do.

You and I know why Tano is that way.

And now we also know that he's capable of… anything.

[sighs]

Sister…

I got over being the wife of an abuser.

But I could never get over being the mother of a killer.

-[knocking at door] -We are closed.

It's me, Auntie.

[Silvia] Ah.

[door opening]

Give us some good news, honey.

We still don't know where he is.

Has he called you?

No.

He isn't answering my calls either.

He must have switched off his phone to avoid being tracked.

I know that if he calls you, you'll instinctively want to protect him.

But please, don't do that.

What do you think?

That I'm going to hide him?

Auntie,

I'm really sorry to have to speak to you this way.

I swear it's the last thing I want to do.

But you must understand that the longer Tano is on the run,

the more complicated his life gets.

[♪ reflective instrumental music playing]

I give you my word that I'll help you any way I can.

[Esther] All right.

Yes. Everything has been sorted.

Thank you very much for everything.

[muffled laugh] See you soon.

Thank you. Bye.

[cell phone beeps off]

[sighs]

This a bad time?

No. No, please. Come in.

[♪ music concludes]

What's this?

Mm.

Nothing.

How's Gracia?

Well, to be honest, she's stronger than I thought.

More than I would be.

You know what happened with Miguel, right?

Yes.

He told me.

I guess he must have told you everything.

He did.

And that's why I wanted to apologize.

Apologize?

Why?

Because you must've felt really awful to resort to doing something like that.

And I wasn't there to listen to you.

Paloma, I didn't tell you either.

I couldn't.

That's why I need to move on.

I'm leaving Manterana.

Really?

[Esther] Mm.

A few months ago, a colleague from university called me and…

made me an offer to work at a hospital in Tenerife.

-[Paloma scoffs] -Back then,

I didn't even think about it, but now…

I think it's a good opportunity.

[chuckles softly]

I don't know what to say.

That you are happy for me.

Well, I am, but…

I'm sad to see you go.

I will miss you a lot too, Paloma.

-[♪ emotional instrumental music playing] -[chuckles softly]

[sniffles]

But I've been so obsessed with the idea that my life was Miguel,

that I missed out on my own life.

I need to learn how to live without him.

And without my mother.

And does Paca agree?

I don't care about what she thinks anymore.

I understand that you must be having a hard time, but…

you seem excited and…

that is good.

May I ask you something?

Of course.

What about Tomás?

Nothing.

Shall we?

Well…

[♪ music concludes]

Come on, honey. Settle down.

I don't understand why they're looking for him at airports.

What's he planning? Leaving the country?

Hello.

I'm sorry to interrupt.

Emilio, you are here too, that's good.

What's going on?

Your mother.

Do you ever remember a time when she didn't want to open Casa Larrea?

Mm. No. I don't.

I tried to cheer her up this morning but it was no use.

Until Tano comes back, she won't relax.

Even if he does, she won't relax then either.

[breathes deeply] I'll go.

She shouldn't be alone.

That's what she needs right now. That we come together and support her.

I'll finish up and be right there.

Okay.

[Miguel sighs deeply]

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

[automated voice over phone] The number you are calling is currently unavailable.

Please, leave your message.

[line beeps]

[Tano] Hi, Mom.

It's me.

I need you to understand what's going on.

These past few months have been hell for me.

If I'm in this state,

it's not my fault.

It's Miguel's.

If he hadn't stolen my happiness,

none of this would have happened, Mom.

[inhales deeply] He…

has taken Gracia away from me.

[sobs] He took the love of my life away from me.

And he did it right before my wedding.

You hear me, Mom?

He didn't care that I was his brother. [sobs] Bastard.

[sobs]

He screwed up everything.

And now I'm the one who has to run away.

I'm the one who has to run away. It's not fair, Mom.

It's not fair.

[sniffles]

[breathing intensifies]

But it's over.

It's over.

All this will be over.

I'm going to end this once and for all, Mom.

[♪ music intensifying]

[♪ music concludes]

I have to go.

Tell your mother from me that I…

[exhales]

Never mind.

It was stupid. It won't fix anything.

This is unbearable.

As soon as the kids finish school, I'm moving to Madrid.

-[♪ nostalgic instrumental music playing] -Are you still thinking about leaving?

Mm?

There's no place in this town that…

doesn't cause me pain.

Manterana or Las Sabinas are no longer my home.

[clicks tongue]

I have to go.

I'm going with you.

If I stay here alone, I'll go crazy.

[birds chirping]

[♪ music concludes]

Are you really leaving?

[Esther] Isn't it obvious?

Come on, Esther.

You are not a teenager anymore.

Besides, every time you leave, you come back. Save yourself the trip.

It won't be that way this time.

Honey, forgive me.

Forgive me. I was upset.

You know that I don't want you to leave.

-Where else would you be better off? -[chuckles softly]

You mean, better off than with you, right?

[Paca] Of course.

That's exactly what I want to find out, what life is like without you.

No, Esther.

Please, don't leave me alone.

-You are already alone. -[♪ soft instrumental music playing]

You only think about yourself and El Acebuche.

That's not true. You are the most important thing in my life.

Look, Mom, if that were true,

you wouldn't try and stop me with your emotional blackmail.

I need you.

You can't leave now. I'm not well at all. [pants]

Everything that happened, Laura, and--

Mom, please. I know your manipulation tactics very well.

-They won't work this time. -I don't know what's going on,

-but this is not you. -Yes.

This is me.

The real me.

The other is the Esther you created.

Mom, you've suppressed my personality my whole life.

You've tried to mold me after you. And I don't want to end up like you.

I'll change. [pants] I'll do everything you ask me to do.

I beg you, Esther. Don't leave.

Let me go.

I have no one else but you.

And you have no one else but me.

You have no one else!

[♪ reflective instrumental music playing]

Do you think that a mother

who tells her daughter that is a good mother?

Sometimes I wonder how my life would have turned out

if you'd died instead of Dad.

[Paloma] I know about Esther.

I'm very sorry that she left.

[♪ music concludes]

It's her decision.

Mm.

-Don't look at me like that. -[Paloma chuckles softly]

-I'm not looking at you in any way, Paca. -[Paca] Mm.

You are looking at me with pity.

You are doing that because you know that I'm all alone.

I think you've done everything wrong, but…

I'm sorry that you are in this situation.

And forgive me if I'm bothering you.

I've always done what I wanted.

And I've always been my own person.

[♪ gentle inspirational instrumental music playing]

I admit it wasn't always easy.

Setbacks can defeat you.

But if you are strong,

you defeat them.

I've been able to build all this

and be who I am,

a powerful woman.

So, don't pity me,

because I lived the life I wanted to live.

[♪ music concludes]

[door opening]

What are you doing here?

I wanted to say thank you.

What for?

Because you always tried to open my eyes about Miguel and you were right.

I've finally realized that Miguel was not good for me at all.

Have you two broken up?

I'm leaving Manterana.

You don't have to leave town just because you are divorcing.

It's not just because of him,

I'm leaving because of my mother too.

I need to get far away from her.

That's why

I have accepted a job in Tenerife.

Well, I wish you luck.

Thanks.

Tomás,

if you want,

we don't need to say goodbye.

Would you like to come with me?

[♪ romantic instrumental music playing]

You said I would come looking for you and, look,

you were right.

[gulps] Why are you asking me?

Do I need a reason?

There's always a reason. Tell me.

You know it well.

[laughs] Right, but I want to hear it.

I don't know who I am, Tomás.

But the closest I've been to being myself was when I was with you.

I want to be honest, I don't know if I'll ever forget Miguel.

[inhales deeply] Well, you won't know if it's you or your mother's money I'm after.

[both chuckle]

As things stand between me and her,

she'll probably cut me out of her will.

Nah, there's a better chance of a meteorite hitting Earth.

So, what do you say?

Are you coming?

Where?

What's wrong with this place? Huh?

Everybody will know the truth.

What are you talking about, Tano? What truth?

I thought I was like Dad.

-No! -Don't you…!

-[Silvia] No. -But no.

I'm not like Dad. I'm not like him.

I can see it now, you are.

-No! No, Tano. -[all gasp]

He took my life away, Mom.

[in Spanish] Do we really need more money?

I'm not resentful, unlike you.

Esther Ruiz Utrera, will you marry me?

[Esther] Yes, honey. Of course.

If your father lets you go to the club, I'll come pick you up.

Take control of your life.

Don't you ever lose it.

It worked for me.

And I'll be here, waiting for you.

And now I know that will never change.

[Laura] I love you.
