♪ Ooh, oh, oh, yeah ♪

[Lidia] Like every new year,
everyone set a goal to achieve...

A personal challenge,
something to be improved

that he or she hadn't done
in the last 12 months.

But these are nothing more
than simple New Year’s promises.

HAPPY 1929

-[crowd counting down]
-[bell tolling]

[crowd cheering]

[woman] Happy New Year!

[Lidia] The year 1929 had just begun,

and we had the chance
to choose how it would get underway.

Would we leave our fates
in the hands of justice?

Or hide a body
to keep enjoying our freedom?

♪ Tired of our adoration ♪

♪ Honey, what's my destiny? ♪

[rustling]

What was that?

Did you hear that?

It was probably a rat. No one's here.

[Marga] What if someone saw us
putting the body in the car?

[Carlota] No one knows anything.
No one saw anything. Just us.

[Lidia] Our choice was made.

All we could do was wait.

♪ I wanted love the most ♪

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

♪ But it never stays long ♪

♪ A notch to my bedpost
Pretend they're mine ♪

♪ Sundress wrinkled on the floor
I'm naked, you're not here no more ♪

♪ To keep me warm, keep me warm ♪

♪ cr*ck the door with a trash bin
Maybe you will come back in ♪

♪ And keep me warm, keep me warm ♪

♪ My love, my love, my love ♪

[indistinct chatter]

Excuse me!

♪ In fields where they lay ♪

♪ Keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night ♪

Excuse me.

-Good morning.
-Good morning.

[Lidia] I owe you one.

Seriously, patience and that girl
really don't... go together.

Lidia. Lidia! The reports.

Thanks.

Good morning, Mr. Uribe.
I've got the reports--

[Carlota] You should stop
and take a breath once in a while.

CHAPTER 9: THE CHOICE

I thought you got promoted.
Why aren't you upstairs?

Upstairs... Of course. He's upstairs.

Here.

Thanks.

Lidia, the reports.

[Lidia panting]

[Lidia] Mr. Uribe.

[Uribe] Miss Aguilar.
[chuckles] About time.

Sorry for the delay. Here's your coffee

and the reports you requested on the rise
in subscribers thanks to automation.

Your suit is ready,

and Miss Millán has been told
she has to present you

with the best candidate
for the job of technical director.

Stop talking.

-I want you to be my pitcher.
-Your what?

You don't know baseball?
Have you never heard of Babe Ruth?

The greatest batter in the world.

Last year, he hit 60 home runs
in just one season.

[chuckling] You don't know
what that means either.

It means he's from another planet,
a total genius.

Arm back, elbow above your shoulder.

But do you know
what I like most about Babe?

That you wouldn't know it
by looking at him.

He's chubby.

His body's too thick
and his legs too thin.

It's proof that there can be a champ
where you least expect it.

-Now... pitch.
-What?

Throw the ball. I want to bat.
Throw it, for God's sake.

I have to go over the reports--

Shut up and pitch the ball.

-Pitch the ball!
-No!

This isn't what we agreed to
when we negotiated the rotary patent.

You asked me to keep the workers' jobs,

to rehire Miss Carlota Rodríguez
and the engineer Miguel Pascual,

-and you'd get--
-A position in management.

Isn't that what I did?

Aren't you an assistant manager?

Don't play dumb with me, please.

Six months. For six months I've been...

-All right.
-...at it nonstop.

This was supposed to be a promotion,

but I've become your trained monkey.

That's enough.

Stop with these delusions of grandeur.

If you want an opportunity,
you'll have to find it yourself.

It turns out you're a terrible pitcher.

-It's been a long time.
-Mm-hmm.

Long enough for me to realize
how long you'd been deceiving me.

"Errand girl" would've been
more appropriate.

I know I hurt you badly.

And I know you won't forgive me
for what happened.

But let me show you
it's worth taking a chance on us.

I love you more than anyone--

You only love yourself... Alba.

[Lidia] Carlos.

Carlos, please. Please let me explain.

Let me explain, please.

Why did he call you Alba?

Carlos, I didn't--

No, no, no, no, no.

Are you Alba? Yes or no?

So, it's her, huh?

The girl at the station
you always talked about.

-The love of your life.
-I tried to tell you, I swear.

But you fell in love with her.
I didn't want to hurt you.

I wish I'd never met either of you.

[Lidia] Carlos...

I love you.

I love you.

I'd really like to believe you, Alba.

-Don't call me that.
-Why not? It's your name.

That's not my name. My name is Lidia.

-Everything I told you is true.
-I don't care.

I don't care about your name
or anything else about you.

Because of you, this company
is in the hands of the Uribes.

If you hadn't stolen the rotary,
I wouldn't have lost everything.

I'm here to get back what is my family's.

-My father gave his life for this company.
-I didn't want you to lose the company,

but all those people
would've been out on the street.

Thank you for thinking of everyone
except me.

[Uribe] Mr. Cifuentes.

The new company director.

I'm glad to see you. Come in.

Come right in.

[door closes]

[kissing]

[Carlota sighs]

What's going on?

Since when am I not invited
to these tête-à-têtes?

I demand immediate payment
for damages incurred.

[Carlota laughs] You gave me a fright.

Why'd you push me away, Carlota?

I didn't know it was Miguel.

[Sara]
Are we going to spend our lives hiding?

That's Carlota. She took her time
to acknowledge it with me, too.

-And this is different.
-Different?

The world won't change
unless we change it.

-I think you're being hasty.
-Hasty?

I've been telling you for over two months

to tell your friends
we're in a relationship.

If they truly love you,
they'll accept who you are.

You don't understand. My family--

I don't give a sh*t about your family!

-What about me?
-[Miguel] Let's calm down.

That's easy for you to say.

You're being so unfair.

If people don't accept you
the way you are, then they don't love you.

And if you can't accept yourself...

maybe we should reconsider
our relationship.

[Miguel] I don't think this is the time
or the place for this.

Miguel's right.

It's getting late. I'm going back to work.

I’m so sorry you're leaving, Grandma.

Are you sure you can't stay
a little longer?

Until after New Year's Eve, maybe?

No, I have to go.

But before you go,

I'd like to treat you
and your granddaughter

to some delicious cream puffs
they make here. You'll see.

-[Marga] Grandma, you'll be late.
-There's time.

And you love them, Marga.

Then go on, get them.

He's nice, your boyfriend.

-I think he's the one.
-He's the only one.

That's exactly why.

[clears throat]

Enjoy, ladies.

Thank you.

Mmm!

Delicious. Mmm!

A little small.

You and your sweet tooth. Here, take mine.

No, no! [gasps]

Weren't you going to ask her to marry you
before I left?

-Yes, I was, until you swallowed the ring.
-What?

Grandma, we've got a taxi.

Give me a hug.

I’m... I'm going, I guess.

Of course, or you'll miss your train.

I didn't say goodbye
to your boyfriend properly.

Don't worry.

-Take care.
-I'll say hi to everyone.

-Yes, say hi to Angelines.
-Yes.

-Come on.
-Hello.

-Bye.
-Goodbye!

-Take care of yourself.
-You, too.

[sighs]

Deep down, my grandma's a sweetheart,
Pablo.

Yes, deep down.

Operator 48. Good morning.
How can I help you?

-[Ángeles over phone] Carlota?
-Ángeles!

I'm so glad.
I've been trying to reach you all morning.

Right. I had to leave the phone
off the hook because Mario's at home.

-He's not feeling well.
-It can't go on like this.

Oh, Carlota, what do you want me to do?

Mario threatened
to take my daughter from me.

I'd rather this than not have her with me.

-[Mario coughs]
-I have to go.

-Are you going to the auction tomorrow?
-What?

The auction the company holds every year
to raise money for the foundation.

I forgot all about it.

Ángeles, we really miss you.

Please try to come.

[Mario coughs] Who were you talking to?

It was a wrong number.

-Wrong number?
-Yes.

It wasn’t one of your little friends,
was it?

No. [gasps]

[Uribe laughing]

What you're saying sounds
like magic, Mr. Cifuentes.

It's called "wireless communication."

In Australia, they've been using it
for years in police cars.

Officers communicate via radio,

so they don't need a private phone
to pass on reports.

-Look at this.
-No, no...

I'm truly impressed.

[Carlos] Then you accept the proposal.
This is the future.

And what about the present, Mr. Cifuentes?

Developing this project
would cost a lot of money.

And to make a lot of money,
what do you need?

To make a lot of money
you need a lot of customers.

[scoffs]

But before that,
we need to popularize the telephone,

make it accessible
so that everyone can have one

and wants to have one.

Perhaps I can help you
with that, Mr. Uribe.

[Uribe] Excuse me?

I've been thinking for some time
about developing a project

that would enable everyone to communicate.

I could've used it
when I came to the city,

and perhaps it's time to bring it to life.

My goodness.

This is a pleasant surprise.

I'd like to show you that I can do more

than shine shoes at the front door.

I'm sorry, I think I missed something.

Do you think just anyone can come in
and propose a project?

No, not just anyone,
but both you and I know

that Miss Aguilar is not just anyone
in this company.

Fine. Tomorrow.

At ten o'clock.
British punctuality, please.

I'll expect you as well, Mr. Cifuentes,
to come with new ideas.

Delicious coffee, Miss Aguilar.

[clears throat]

Who do you think you are?

Do you think you can waltz in
and act like a top executive?

No, like the assistant manager
that I am.

Haven't you hurt me enough already?

I'm sorry if I hurt you.

I'm sorry if you think I used you.

-[scoffs]
-I want to be with you.

[sniffles]

♪ When I'm thinking of you ♪

I want the engagement ring back.

[Eulalia] Pablo,
I couldn't go back to the village

with this burden weighing me down.

What a blow.

The ring inside the envelope
is my engagement ring from Eduardo.

Marga always liked it,
ever since she was little,

and I promised her
that one day it'd be hers.

I don't know if it's as pretty as yours,
but I know my girl will love it.

-Good luck. Eulalia.
-I'll put you on hold, ma'am.

-[yelps, laughs] What are you doing here?
-Shh. Be quiet.

-We can't do this.
-I have to tell you something.

[Marga] But, Pablo, I can't just leave--

I've been trying to tell you something
all day and I can't take it anymore.

So, if I have to say it here,
then let everyone know!

But what, Pablo?

Shut your eyes. Shut them. Shut them.

-[Pablo] Okay, now.
-[Marga] Now?

-Yes, now.
-Let's see.

What?

Marga...

-[Marisol] I'm sorry to interrupt.
-Marisol.

Hello, Marisol.

Something happened.
Something very serious.

My father is dying.

What?

I'm so sorry, Marisol.

That's why I rushed here from Barcelona.

He's having
a life-or-death operation tomorrow.

And I have to ask you one last favor.

Of course, of course.
Whatever you need, tell me.

I need you to go with me
to the hospital...

[Pablo] Of course, anything.

[Marisol]
...and pretend we're still a couple.

What?

[Marisol] My father loved you.

And after our breakup...

I didn't have the chance to tell him...

It's been over six months.

Right. Right, but I got so wound up.

-How can I tell him now?
-[Pablo] Don't worry, Marisol.

Count on me. Count on me.

[train whistle blows]

Well, you see, Don Genaro
has been my lifelong teacher.

He taught me everything I know
about numbers.

I can't... I can't let him down now.

[clears throat] Uh...

-When's the operation, tomorrow?
-Tomorrow.

We're waiting for them
to confirm the time.

Sure.

Well, let me know, and I'll be there.
Don't worry.

-Thank you.
-[Pablo] No problem.

Pablo, I don't trust her one bit.

Marga, her father's dying. Please...

-She'd k*ll him just to mess with us.
-No! Don't joke about this.

-Please.
-All right.

Was there something you wanted to tell me?

Nothing.

[sighs]

MANAGEMENT OFFICE

Lidia, are you coming to the bar with us?

Doña Lola's gone back home for Christmas,
so we don't have a curfew.

Don't tell me
you're working overtime for Uribe.

On the contrary.

He's given me the opportunity
to present a project of my own.

I can't pass up this chance.

There are some loose ends,
and I want it to be perfect.

Who knows?

It could change
the course of my life overnight.

I wish mine could change, too.

-I haven't had a good day, girls.
-Neither have I.

Carlos can't bear to look at me.

He wants me to give
the engagement ring back.

[Carlota]
They won't get the better of us.

[Marga] Maybe you should rest.

Right.

I'm going to stay longer.

-See you tomorrow.
-See you tomorrow.

Girls, I've got an errand to run.
I'll be right back.

-Now?
-It's nothing important. See you in a bit.

What's he up to?

Don't you think he's been mysterious
these past two weeks?

Do you look at me like that
when I walk away?

What?

I don't know. You look at him like...

I look at you with more desire.

See? Nothing happened.

-Good morning.
-[Sara] Good morning.

-That was repulsive.
-Excuse me?

You and that tart.

You make me gag.
You two are degenerates.

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

Stay away from my wife.
Don't call her again.

Now do you know what I'm talking about?

Never again.
I know you call her every morning.

You're a son of a bitch.

I want you to do something else for me,

or tonight after the countdown,
I'll tell everyone about your perversion.

And what do you want?

I want your bitch girlfriend
to put me forward

as the only candidate
for the new technical director job.

Since Uribe's been here,
she does what she pleases.

I want that job now.

[coughing]

-I hope you die.
-Out of my way.

You only have a few hours.

Three months exactly.

I'm pregnant.

How do I know it's my kid?

[sighs]

Of all the men in the company,
I choose the nastiest of all.

What did you expect me to say?

"That's great, honey! Don't worry.

I'll leave my wife and my daughter
and live with some nobody."

I don't want a fairy tale with you.

But this child is both of ours.

Fine, Carolina. How much do you want?

What?

How much do you want to get rid of it?

[lighter clicks]

Mario, I'm not going to terminate
this pregnancy.

Do you know
what a back-alley abortion means?

The risk it entails?

You're on your own, then.
Don't count on me.

[scoffs]

Well, I'm afraid
I am going to count on you.

Especially because I'm out of a job
and I'll need money to raise the child.

So it's up to you.

Either give me a hefty sum
or I'll cause such a scandal

that you'll lose your family
and your job, too.

-You've always been a bitch.
-Yes.

You're right about that,

but that's what you liked most about me,
right?

Good morning, Mr. Uribe.

Miss Aguilar, I apologize.
We had to start early.

The Cifuenteses have to leave soon
because of the auction.

Carlos is showing me
a fascinating project.

It's telephone booths.

They'd be installed for public use
in the main streets of all the big cities,

so you can make a call at any time.

I think it's brilliant.

[Carlos] They've been in other countries
for years. It's time for them in Spain.

[Lidia] That was my idea.

You stole my project.

You tricked me last night
to steal the idea.

You're a cheat and a traitor!

-I don't know what you mean.
-Last night?

I won't allow this lack of respect
in my presence.

[scoffs]

Calm yourself, please, Miss Aguilar.

That's what I'm saying.
A bit of respect and calm.

You'd think we were in a market.

Doña Carmen, wait a moment
before pointing the finger.

I personally saw
how my son worked all night

in order to present this idea to you.

That isn't true.

[Carmen] Not only does she call
my son a thief,

she dares to call me a liar.

Doña Carmen, for me,
it's one person's word against another's.

-Mr. Uribe, I promise that I--
-[Uribe] Just a minute, Carlos.

Now you'll have to prove

which of you two
is the true creator of the project.

How? By developing it further.

You'll compete to defend your project.

And the winner will become
the company director.

That's crazy.

You have time to withdraw, Mr. Cifuentes.

In that case, I'll start working
immediately with Miss Aguilar.

[Carmen] That's ridiculous.

Please don't take
this company's future so lightly.

This young lady is totally incompetent.

You'd be surprised to learn
where I come from, Doña Carmen.

Very well.

May the best person win.

Carlos!

How could you?

-Everything last night...
-...was a lie.

An eye for an eye,

a tooth for a tooth.

How could you?

Seduce you and then steal from you?

Are you really asking me that, Lidia?

You're the expert.

If I lose my job,
it'll be on your conscience.

I don't care
that Francisco now works a car factory.

I won't care if you're fired.

Don't forget this.

[clatters]

You have become a despicable person.

[man whistles]

[Francisco] Hey, what are you doing?
Our shift isn't over for half an hour.

You're not the boss, newbie.
Mind your own business.

[Francisco] It's my business
if I have to stay to fix your shoddy work.

Shoddy work?

[workers clamoring]

[man grunting]

[Lidia] Francisco! Stop! Francisco!

[Francisco groans]

That's enough!

What were you thinking?
Fighting like kids.

Welcome to the real world.

Didn't take you long
to get used to the good life.

[groans]

Why did you come?

To find you.

I didn't know you were working here.

In fact, I thought you'd be in...

Do you realize your return
meant the end of my life?

Do you realize I ruined my marriage,

I lost my brother, my best friend?

I gambled on you, and lost everything.

Everything.

So, tell me...

why are you here?

I have to develop a project
for the company.

And I can't do it alone.

I need your experience,
your knowledge of the company...

to compete with Carlos.

Come to the New Year's
charity auction tonight.

We can start over again.

I'm very sorry...

if it's been so terrible to see me again.

I'm sorry.

Hello, Don Mario.

Do you need something?

Money, Pablito.

You and me both. [chuckles]

A few bundles like that
would sort out your life.

Well, we'll have to work very hard
to get one of these.

Pablo, you have to come.

-Hello.
-Hi, sweetheart.

Come on. It's just a minute.

-Give me a second.
-It can't wait.

-What is it?
-Pablo...

Sara has promoted me
for the auction tonight.

Aren't you happy?

Yes, of course I am.
But I'm still angry. Remember we're angry?

Yes, and you were right to be.

-I was a witch.
-Yes.

I know that man is important to you

and doing this will make you feel better.

That's true.

So I trust you.

Don Mario! Help!

-Don Mario! Don Mario!
-[Mario coughing]

[Pablo] Are you all right?

[Mario groaning] I just felt dizzy.

[Pablo] You don't look well.
You need a doctor.

[coughing]

Mario, what happened?

I got a call from the company.
What happened?

Calm down, ma'am. You can get dressed.

[coughs]

Sit down, please.

[coughing]

From our analysis,
everything points to poisoning.

But given the seriousness
of your symptoms,

it isn't a one-time thing.

You may have been in contact
with this toxic product for some time.

Excuse me.

What toxic product? I don't understand.

Well, it happens more often
than you think.

Foods can be contaminated
through containers

if not preserved properly.

Or you've been in contact
with a toxic product,

like rat poison, insecticide
or chemicals.

If after being in contact
with one of these products

you put your hand to your mouth,
you could be poisoned.

I guess that was it.

What do I need to do?

We're going to give you oxygen.

But you must change your habits.

The cyanide will leave your blood
over time.

But it's very important

to check your surroundings
so this doesn't keep happening.

And take these vitamins.
They'll help you recover.

Thank you, Doctor.

[coughing]

Thank you.

[doctor] And that's all.
Take care and get better.

-When we get home, I'll check everything.
-That's fine.

Doña Carmen,
nothing happened between Lidia and me.

And remember, Marga
will be coordinating all the operations.

Good luck, everyone.

Are you all right?

Yes, it's just nerves.

Come on, Marga. Everything will go well.

Everything’s going all wrong.

What are you doing here?

-Don't be a worrywart. I'm nervous enough.
-Come here.

What's going on?

-What's going on?
-Yes.

I'm missing an entire bundle of bills.

Marga, 5,000 pesetas!

It must be a mistake.
You must have miscounted.

It's not a mistake.

I've counted over and over,
and it doesn't add up.

All right. Let's calm down.

I have to concentrate on the auction now.

Just wait until afterwards
and we'll count it together.

-You'll see, it'll turn up.
-No. No, because I think it was stolen.

-Who would do that?
-Don Mario. [shushing]

You can’t accuse someone without proof.
That’s not how it works!

-Imagine if they accuse you of theft!
-I haven't done anything.

Marga, listen. Listen.

I saw how he was looking at it.

You have to trust me.

He came up and touched it.
"Pablito, money, money."

All right,
but even if someone took that money,

we can't do anything about it now.

So, please, trust me and tomorrow morning
I'll count it with you.

Promise me
you won't do anything until then.

Give me a kiss. Wish me luck.

Good luck, pumpkin!

Miss Aguilar.

You look beautiful.

Mr. Uribe, I'd like to contribute
something to the auction.

-[Uribe exclaims]
-It's a very valuable jewel.

Few women could dream of having
such a precious gem.

I'm speechless. It'll be a pleasure
to include it with the other items.

It's a lovely gesture.

I hope you aren't trying
to buy my approval,

because I'll be merciless
with the projects.

Miss Aguilar,
you know where everything goes.

Would you be kind enough
to put this in a bell jar

along with the other items?

Of course, Mr. Uribe.

And tell us its auction number.
We don't want it getting lost on the way.

Doña Carmen, how is your daughter?

Much better, thank you.
God willing, she'll be home tomorrow.

I'm delighted.

It looks lovely!

Are you feeling better?

Yes. I'm going to the washroom.

Ángeles!

This is wonderful!

The auction is about to begin.

-We'll see you later.

How are you?

[Ángeles] I'm fine. Um...

I'll go now.
I don't want to be in the way.

[audience applauds]

[Carmen] Ladies and gentlemen,

it's a great honor for me to host

this charity auction once again.

As you all know, the presidency
of the company is now held

by Mr. Uribe, whom I want
to thank personally tonight

for continuing to believe
in this foundation

which does so much
to help widows in this country.

And I thank you for being here tonight

and contributing
with your donations to this auction.

The pieces we have this year
are more valuable than ever before.

So this is a lovely way to start the year.

-And with that, enjoy yourselves and...
-[bell rings]

The lines are open. Let the auction begin.

Yes, indeed.

-I know Carlos' drink was meant for me.

[Ángeles] No, no, no! Mario, no!

Thank you, everyone,
for your collaboration,

but especially the girls

because thanks to them,
everything went impeccably well.

Ladies, come out and say hello.

I bid for the ring,
as you asked me, Don Carlos.

Perfect. Remember, no one must know

[Lidia] Just minutes into the new year,

and the promise of getting away

from the dark world to which I'd belonged
was already up in smoke.

The challenge would now be greater...

and the four of us would struggle together
to navigate our destiny.
