04x07 - Chapter 31: Happiness

[bunniefuu]

[Lidia] They say that human beings only
know happiness once they have lost it,

but that is not true.

Francisco?

[young Francisco] Run, Alba!
Let's go! Come on!

Run! Run! Run!

Give me your suitcase!

[Alba] I can't believe
we are going to Madrid.

I was thinking about all the things
I'm going to do when we get there.

- What are you going to do?
- Me?

I'm kissing that spot
you have on your neck.

[Lidia] What actually happens is
that when we are happy,

we are so busy enjoying the moment
that we don't even know we are.

My bag! Sir!

- Thief! That's my bag!
- No, listen, it's my bag! I...

Let go of me! Francisco!

Francisco!

I can't believe it...

I can't believe it. What...

What are you doing here?

This is a miracle.

I don't know.

[Lidia] But it wasn't my case.

The day I got Francisco back,
I felt my happiness was complete again.

I don't know who I am.

What?

I can't remember anything.

Just you.

[Lidia] But happiness is so intense
and so fragile at the same time

that it can vanish in a brief moment.

[theme song playing]

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

[Francisco] All I remember
is my childhood and you,

when we were children,
running to catch that train to Madrid.

[chuckles]

That and... all my feelings for you.

I'm glad you at least remember that.

[both chuckle]

I guess my feelings for you
are so strong that...

this mind didn't want to forget you, Alba.

My name is not Alba anymore.

My name is Lidia.

Oh.

[chuckles]

I guess we have been through a lot
after getting on that train.

[chuckles] We have.

Lidia...

It's nice. I like it.

What did they tell you at the hospital?

They think that I will remember again,
but they don't know how long it will take.

I don't know what I'm going to do.
This is...

It's normal. You have just woken up
after more than a year in a coma.

But you will remember again.
I am going to help you.

[chuckles]

Lidia, Alba... it doesn't matter
what your name is.

You are still the same stubborn girl
that convinced me to follow her here.

The same girl that believes
everything is possible.

[Eva crying]

CHAPTER 31: HAPPINESS

What's that?

It's my daughter.

Come.

Hello...

[chuckles]

Hello.

[grunts and chuckles]

[Francisco] Hello.

Her name is Eva.
She is alive thanks to you.

I know they sh*t me,

and that's why I was in a coma.
Carlos told me.

Carlos?

Yes.

I didn't know she was your child.

Are you together?

Asunción!

[footsteps approaching]

- [Asunción] Yes, madam?
- Take the girl, please.

- Come with me.
- Bye.

Bye.

Are you sure, Francisco? I...

You must be very confused
with all that's going on and...

I may not remember my past, but I remember
what I talked about with Carlos and when.

Apart from the doctor and the nurse,
I only saw two people, him and his mom.

- What?
- I am staying at Carmen's for now.

She said she would help me find you.

She told me she would take me to you,
but she got a lady and said she was you.

She tried to trick me, but I realized.

Then I passed by the company and...

I saw your photo.

A man gave me your address.

I still don't know
why she tricked me with that girl.

Lidia, are you okay?

It's too much information at once.

Francisco, I want you to come with me.

We will go somewhere quiet and...

and we will think of what to do.

Of course.

[Marga] But, Carlota, where are you going?

- Marga, I can't breathe in that room.
- But I don't think you should go out.

Carlota, after what happened,
what you have to do is rest.

Really, girls, I'm fine.
I just want to go for a walk. Don't fuss.

[doorbell rings]

How stubborn you are...

- Francisco...
- [Lidia] Come on in.

- Francisco, these are my friends.
- [Marga gasping]

[Lidia] Marga...

Carlota and Ángeles.

Hi. [chuckles]

How could you let Francisco
come to the company?

[Carmen] I didn't let him.
Don't be stupid.

I could give you the full name
of all the employees that saw him.

I had to take care of them.

Has anyone from the company told him
anything about Lidia?

[Carlos] How can I know

if he left before I could talk to him
and I don't know where he is?

Mom, you said
you would have him under control.

Son, you are losing your mind.

The future of my family is at risk,
and maybe you don't mind,

- but Eva and Lidia are my life.
- [Carmen] I know.

I told you I would take care of Francisco
and I'm going to keep my word.

You'd better, or I swear to you,
you will never see my daughter again.

[phone clatters]

- [Elisa] What happened?
- [sighs]

Where are you going?

To Doña Lola's. Lidia said this morning
she was going to visit Carlota.

- Carlos, let's talk about this. Let's...
- Not now.

If Lidia finds out that Francisco woke up
and I kept it from her,

- she won't forgive me.
- You're going to keep lying?

No, I'm going to keep trying to protect
my family and keep it together.

- I can't do anything else.
- Yes, you can tell her the truth.

It's better she finds out from you.
Please, don't make things worse.

Elisa, I'm sorry.

But I can't lose Lidia.

I love her too much.

That's not love.

I know what it's like to be obsessed
with someone who doesn't love you anymore.

I know what it's like
to believe one lie after another.

And I also know how that ends.

Or don't you remember
what Francisco did to me?

Carlos...

Lidia is not in love with you.

Accept it.

And nothing you do is going to change
what she feels for Francisco.

[breathes deeply]

[elevator dings]

[elevator door closes]

I can't believe Carlos
is lying to me about this.

Lying and hiding something
are not the same thing.

- Maybe Carlos is doing it to protect you.
- To protect me from good news?

He shouldn't have done it anyway.

What if Carmen is threatening him?

What if she blackmailed him?
That woman is capable of anything.

I think he did it
because he wants to marry you

and if you knew Francisco woke up,
you wouldn't say yes.

But Carlos is the father of my daughter.
He is my best friend.

Yeah, but love is blind.

Look, yesterday when you told me
you were getting closer, I supported you.

But I think that...

love makes you do crazy things.

I don't know how he could do that to me.
I didn't expect...

You are still brooding over it, right?

- We don't understand why Carlos did that.
- Yeah.

I spoke to him about Alba
and he said nothing.

And if he remains silent,
he has something to hide, right?

[door opens]

[Carlos] Hello, excuse me, do you know
if Lidia or Carlota are in the hostel?

[woman] Yes, I think
they are in Carlota's bedroom.

- Shall I let them know?
- [Carlos] Please.

[Lidia] Don't move.

Carlos, what are you doing here?

I wanted to see how Carlota is
after what happened.

More cheerful. But she is very tired.

- Can I see her?
- She has just fallen asleep.

- You know, she needs to rest.
- I will come back another time.

What are you going to do? Are you staying?

I wanted to go
and see Francisco in the hospital.

I think I need
to say goodbye to him, you know?

They called from the hospital
this morning, Lidia.

They called to say that Francisco
is going to remain isolated a few days.

- Isolated? Why?
- Nothing to worry about.

But it looks like there was
an infection in the hospital.

And as a safety precaution,
they will keep patients in quarantine.

Quarantine, of course.

But I thought
we could spend the day together.

Do you want to come?

I had thought to give
Carlota and the girls a surprise.

I wanted to take them
to spend the evening at the tailor's

to start with the measurements
for the wedding dress.

I don't know,
maybe we will go for dinner after.

Okay.

I really wanted to have
a romantic dinner together.

But I think...

it will be good...

- to cheer her up.
- Of course.

Have fun.

Bye.

[sighs]

You were right.

About everything.

Can you leave us alone
for a moment, please?

Of course.

Your worst fears have been confirmed, hmm?

Carlos is trying to separate us
at all costs.

- And I don't know what Carmen is planning.
- It doesn't matter.

- They didn't succeed. We are together.
- I know.

All I want is for us to go far away.

If I have to go to the end of the world,
I will come with you.

- And with Eva.
- [chuckles] The three of us, of course.

- First I need to help a friend.
- If you need any help, let me know.

While I sort everything out...

we need to pretend we don't know anything.

You will have to go back to Carmen's.

I think I could do it.

The girl that impersonated you asked me
not to say anything. She needed money...

- Do you think she will say anything?
- I don't know.

- If they find out we know the truth...
- Don't worry.

The important thing is
to be together, hmm?

My life right now is... [chuckles]
full of mysteries.

But there is a certainty
that beats everything.

The love I feel for you.

Thank you.

[guard 1] You must leave
your personal belongings here.

[Cuevas sighs]

- Are you going to search me, too?
- I'm sorry, Captain.

Rules are the same for everyone,
and here we enforce them.

Protocol.

- [guard 2] Why are you visiting?
- I need to talk to an employee, Abel Cano.

- Is it something professional?
- Personal.

Come with me.

- Excuse me, what's all this?
- A theater company.

They come once a month
and perform a play for the prisoners.

The new warden. For me,
it's like casting pearls before swine.

[door opens]

Well, Cristóbal...

Long time no see.
What are you doing here?

In order to see you, I had to come
to your work. Would you believe it?

[chuckles]

I guess good things come
to those who wait, hmm?

That's all, Officer Escobar. Thank you.

[clears throat]

[footsteps receding]

[door opens]

[door closes]

[exhales heavily] Well...

Tell me what you need.

- I need you to help me free a prisoner.
- [chuckles]

- Are you crazy?
- I know it's crazy.

But I can't trust anyone.
Just lifelong friends.

She is an innocent girl. The culprit
k*lled himself and she is paying for it.

Abel...

how long have we known each other?

[sighs]

A long time, Cuevas.

And aren't you tired of the system
always oppressing the weakest ones?

[Abel sighs]

- Who is she?
- Sara Millán.

Is there a problem?

If you want to let her out,
you will have to do it soon.

They want to execute her in a week.

What?

Are you warm?

- [prisoner 1] I'm asking if you're warm.
- [prisoner 2] Leave me alone.

This is my shawl.

- [prisoner 2] Leave me alone!
- [prisoner 1] Give me my shawl!

- Give it to me!
- Leave her alone.

[prisoner 1] Who invited you
to this party?

Get away from here or I will kick you out.

What's going on here?

Nothing, we are just chatting.

Chatting, yeah. Go.

Someone who loves you told me to help you.

Are you Candy?

That's what those beasts call me,
but my friends call me Maite.

They are going to move you to a cell
near mine. Don't worry, I got you covered.

Thank you.

I will come with you to the cell.
It's better they all see you with me.

- Ms. Millán.
- [Sara] Yes.

Come with me. You have a visitor.

Shall we go?

Cuevas...

you only have a few minutes.

Thank you.

Please.

How are you?

[whispering] We're going
to get you out, Óscar.

What?

Whichever way you look at it,

this is not fair.

[whispers] Thank you very much.

You have very good friends. [chuckles]

I will tell you how we are going to do it.

This is the old sewage system.

It goes from the laundry room to outside.

Years ago, there was a leak in these pipes
and they were sealed.

But we'll have to open them again
so Óscar can come out.

[Cuevas] Exactly.

I spoke with two burglar friends of mine,
experts in this kind of job for robberies.

They will open the wall from the outside
and I will do it from the inside.

I can go in easily,

but I need your help to pass the tools in

and get Óscar to the laundry room,
avoiding security.

And how are we going to get in?

[Cuevas] They put on a play once a month.

You could go in with the theater company
and go unnoticed.

You could go in the props trunks
with the tools.

Good, but how are we going to convince
the company to go with them?

That's the problem.

Well, I have a friend
who has a theater company.

He performs his plays in villages,
in neighborhoods, even in prisons.

All we need is for them to hire
my friend's company, right?

My contact can take care of that.
The only problem is time.

- We need to do it tomorrow.
- What? Why tomorrow?

Tomorrow night they will perform the play.

And they are going to execute her
in a week.

Carlota, that's not going to happen.

Tomorrow night
we are going to get him out.

Francisco, where were you?
I was looking for you.

I went for a stroll.
After seeing Alba, I needed to walk.

- You shouldn't walk around alone.
- Don't worry about me, Carmen.

I went to the company to see if I remember
but it was as if I was never there.

Seeing Alba didn't help you either?
How did it go with her?

Good, good.

Did you have doubts, Carmen?

No, I just wanted to know
if it helped you remember.

No, not really.

You should continue seeing Alba,
and memories will come back slowly.

You have been through so much together.

Anyway, next time you go out, let me know.

I want to know where you are at all times
in case you need help.

Don't worry.

From now on, I will do it.

- [phone ringing]
- Excuse me.

[Francisco] Yes.

- [Carmen] Hello?
- [lawyer] Madam, we have a problem.

- What happened?
- Francisco knows about the trick.

The girl tried to hide it,
but I realized she was lying

and, in the end, she admitted it all.

Wow, that...

- I didn't expect that.
- We should rush him to leave.

If Ms. Aguilar finds out, she won't
let you get closer to her daughter.

I totally agree with you.
You take care of it.

Let me know
as soon as you sort it out, okay?

[lawyer] Yes, madam.

Is everything okay, Carmen?

Yes, a friend of mine, Luján.

We wanted to watch La Traviata tonight,
but we have no tickets.

But she is good friends with the director,
so she will manage to get them.

She sure will.

And if you don't mind,
I'm going to have a rest.

Yes, I think you should sleep a bit.

[Salas] Mr. Díaz's case is closed.
Would you like me to file the report?

There are still many loose ends.

No one managed to explain
why Sergio kidnapped Carlota.

Well, that was in the hands of a judge
who passed a sentence.

- We cannot do anything.
- Not officially.

But Carlota heard Sergio talk to someone.

And I won't stop until I find him.

Someone innocent is in prison
and I'm going to prove it.

I don't think the inspector likes
his time to be wasted with closed cases.

If he knows you pay more attention
to this than the search for Mirlo...

Tell me something, Salas.

Why did you never show
enough interest in this case?

Is it just because you are a bad officer
or are you hiding something?

Let's not forget our manners.

My instinct tells me that you know
much more than what you are saying.

And I bet my badge that I will find out.

Be careful, because you are the first one
with things to hide.

For example, your extramarital affair
with one of Carlota's friends.

That's not your business.

Maybe that's why you've gone through
so much trouble with this case.

You know, when the owner whistles,
the dog moves the tail.

I'm going to destroy you, Salas.

I swear I'm going to destroy you.

[sighs]

You'd better be careful.

Or you might be the first one to fall.

Miss, with subscriber 277.

Abel, it's Cristóbal.

The plan is still on.

We have a new theater company.
Can you swap them?

[sighs]

Thanks a lot. I owe you one.

[footsteps approaching]

I'm short of time. My superior
will come soon and I must be in position.

I just want you to confirm
what you told me over the phone.

Yes, Captain Cuevas was here
visiting Sara Millán.

Good, do you want some extra money?

It depends.

What do I have to do?

[Lidia] In hard times,
the only thing that keeps us going

is remembering that we were once happy.

Stand up. On your feet.

Let's see
if there's a bladed w*apon hidden here.

- Here it is, sir.
- [Sara] That's not mine.

- I don't know who put it there.
- [warden] Take her to confinement.

No, not to confinement, please.

I'm telling you the truth, please.

Not to confinement, please!
Please, not to confinement!

[Lidia] Until lies crush
that illusion of happiness.

[Cuevas] Inspector, Warden,
is everything okay?

You are in trouble, Cristóbal.

- Did you want to speak to me?
- Yes, I wanted you to have a drink

- and keep me some company.
- Of course.

- Milk?
- Please.

Thank you.

[sniffing]

[exhales]

Do you know there are fortune-tellers
who predict the future reading the leaves?

I don't believe those things.

Sometimes you don't need
to read the leaves.

You just need to sense a touch of...

bitter almond to realize
that this tea is poisoned.

- Don't be stupid.
- You drink it.

Come on.

Even though you lost your memory,
you are still a very sharp man.

I think it's time to lay our cards
on the table.

Carmen...

the girl you introduced me to wasn't Alba.

Can you tell me why the f*ck
you don't want me with Lidia?

I don't care what you two do.

All I care about is my granddaughter.

Eva.

What do you want from her?

- That's none of your business.
- I'm not going to let you hurt her.

Either you tell me your intentions
or I will seek the answers myself.

I am very sick, Francisco.

They are going to operate on me
in America.

I need Eva's blood.

- It's a trial operation.
- Trial...

So you don't know if it will go well.
Or if Eva is at risk.

If the girl dies,
it will be collateral damage.

Collateral, of course.

But Carmen Cifuentes will continue living.

Do you know what?

You are a f*cking bitch.

And you're not getting out of here.

We have to go as soon as possible.

[Ángeles] How did it go?

[Lidia] Everything is ready for us
to go in the prison as actresses.

I found out what Carlos and Carmen
are planning.

It's because of the girl.

They made a deal so Carmen can see her

as long as she keeps Francisco
away from you.

Carlos wouldn't be capable
of doing that, Ángeles.

Lidia, Carlos is blind.

He is obsessed with losing you.

- They're meeting at your place tonight.
- And how do you know that?

- It doesn't matter.
- How do you know it, Ángeles?

I told one of my students
to listen to the calls.

Ángeles, that is forbidden.

It's not the first time
you've done it, right?

There are a lot of people
willing to pay...

big amounts of money for information.

It's something I learned with Guzmán.

You're using the school to listen to calls
and do your business.

You are Mirlo, aren't you?

That's why you were so sure
that he would help us.

And that's why you have been so close
to Victoria for so long.

[Ángeles sighs]

Ángeles, why did you do it?

I'm just trying to give
my daughter a future.

I want her to always be safe.

So she doesn't need to bear
an unhappy marriage to survive.

I want her free.

You must understand.

You would have done it for Eva.

You said that school was to educate women.

- And you lied to me, Ángeles.
- No.

- [Lidia] Yes, you used me.
- I care about the school, about the women.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because you thought
that I would judge you?

Did you think I would judge you?

Carmen is going to meet Eva this evening
at your own house.

Lidia, you have to stop this lie.

Do you want me to come with you?

No. It's something I have to do alone.

Pablo.

Marga, I cannot talk now.
I have to go to the archive.

- I have a lot of work.
- Are you angry?

No, I'm a bit confused.

- Well, it was just a misunderstanding.
- Marga.

Did you think...

- Never mind.
- No, let's talk about it.

- No, no.
- Hiding from problems doesn't solve them.

Marga, I cannot.
Really, I have to go to the archive.

Pablo...

Marga, sorry.

Sorry, I don't know
what went through my mind.

- I didn't mean to say that...
- Don't worry, it's okay.

Pablo, I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have talked
to Antonio about you

- and shouldn't have hesitated...
- It's fine.

- You don't have to apologize.
- But I want to do it.

When Antonio suggested it...

I found it easier to look for the fault
in something external rather than...

- than accept it could be my fault.
- No, Marga, it's not.

[sighs]

Marga, I always blamed you
for everything bad that happens to us.

And I have realized
that part of it is also my fault.

I wish that hadn't happened
with Julio, Pablo.

In a way, I'm glad.

Because the distance made me realize...

that if I had the chance...

to go back in time...

I wouldn't make the same mistakes.

That's what I wanted to tell you
at the inn.

I am afraid of something happening to you
and I wanted you to know the truth.

I am not going to stop you.

I love to see what you are capable of
for the people you love.

And now I feel stupid
for signing those papers.

[chuckles]

[Carlos] Lidia...

[Lidia] How could you, Carlos?

Asunción, take my daughter.

- Prepare her things. We are leaving.
- Yes, madam.

[Lidia] Get out of my house.

Lidia, my mother is very sick.
Doctors have declared her terminally ill.

Like Francisco, right?

- How could you be so despicable?
- Lidia, let me explain.

I don't want you to explain anything.
I don't want to hear more lies.

He is like his father, a coward by nature.
But it's my fault, I pressured him.

He owes me money
from the company's refurbishment.

What is she talking about, Carlos?

He stole it from me while I was in prison.

I told you not to touch a cent
of your mother's money.

It's better not to owe anything to this...

to this woman.

Now, get out,
before I kick you out myself!

Okay, dear, I'll go.
You have a lot to tell each other.

If I ever see her here again,
I will call the police.

I have nothing else to talk to you about.

- You are an assh*le.
- Lidia, forgive me.

How could you do this to me?

You lied and risked your daughter's life
by bringing her to that woman.

No, the child was always watched.
She wasn't at risk.

The night we slept together,
you knew that Francisco was awake.

You knew and you didn't tell me anything.

I tried to tell you, I swear.

Lidia, that night, sweetheart...

- This year has been hard for me, too.
- Are you the victim, Carlos?

Are you the victim?

Ever since you and I
have been living together,

I've always been honest with you.

I told you my feelings
and what you and I were together.

And what did I receive?

Lies.

You and I were a team.

I was mistaken.

The hidden side of happiness is
that for some to be happy,

others need to be wretched.

[Asunción] Madam, what are you doing here?

- Give me the girl.
- Let's go.

[Lidia] Happiness is not earned by feats
or good behavior.

[Carlos] You are very right to be angry.

Just tell me what I can do
to fix things, please.

Lidia.

Lidia, you and Eva are my life.

- I love you.
- Don't touch me.

[crying] You don't know
what love is, Carlos.

You don't know.

- No, please.
- I'm going to leave!

You are not going to see me again! Never!

You are right about everything.

[Eva crying]

[suitcase clatters]

- [Eva] Mommy.
- [Carmen] Let's go.

What's wrong? Allow me.

[Lidia] They've blocked the door!

- [Eva crying]
- [door rattles]

[Carlos] Asunción! Asunción!

- [Eva crying]
- Eva! Eva!

Eva! They are taking our baby!

Carmen was ruining my life again.
She was taking my daughter once again.

But there is something worse than knowing
that we're far from reaching happiness:

the fear of someone snatching away
what we love the most.

Eva!

Eva!
