01x44 - Episode 44

[bunniefuu]

I need you to help me

investigate this person, please.

I want to know

if he has a criminal record,

if his ID is at least authentic.

Before you say no,

here is my ID.

It's nice to meet you.

I'm Matilde Azcárate.

If you want to k*ll me so badly,

why don't you do it yourself?

Mosquera!

Mosquera!

Hey! Has anyone seen Mosquera?

What's up, Medina?

They need Mosquera.

Have you seen him?

No. No, I haven't seen him.

They're releasing him.

I'll look and go get him.

What? You want better odds?

Are you waiting for

one of your friends to rescue you?

Or a g*n to sh**t me with

like that day in the river?

Coward.

You were always a coward, Benítez.

It's not cowardice, Mosquera.

I just don't want you to see me coming.

Joaquín, where were you?

They're looking for you.

-What happened? Are you okay?

-I'm fine. Yes.

-What did they do to you?

-They tried to k*ll me.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

Well, it's superficial, not serious.

I'm an idiot.

I had him right there and I let him live.

Don't worry about that. You're a good man.

Trust me, it's better to bear

that burden than a death.

No.

I really don't know

how much more time I can take.

It won't have to be much.

Your lawyer's waiting outside.

Looks like the judge signed

your release papers.

-What?

-Yes. You're a free man, Joaquín.

-Are you sure?

-Man, you can

Mosquera.

What happened?

Is it true?

-He told you?

-Of course!

Medina and your lawyer need you.

The time has come.

I'm happy for you, Joaquín.

I'm so happy for you!

But promise me one thing.

That I'll never see you in here again.

But who will come visit you?

What? Don't waste your time with that.

Don't worry about me!

The important thing is justice was done.

And I promise you something.

You're not going to run any more risks.

Okay, now look at you.

You can't leave like this.

Go wash your face.

Get that blood off. Change.

Get them to put antiseptic on that gash.

Outside they

They're waiting for you.

Go. Get your life back.

Go ahead, Aguilar.

It's okay. Your mom paid ahead.

Great. I'll let you know

What happened?

Is Carlos Mauricio here?

Yes. He's in his room.

Up the stairs. It's the first room.

You, stay here. You, come with me.

But

Can you tell me what's happening?

Carlos Mauricio tricked us.

He's not Primitiva

or my aunt Mariana's son.

He's a con man.

Apparently, he's been in prison

multiple times for fraud,

and his actual mother,

who's still alive, got him out.

These are copies of his public record

and birth certificate.

Ignacia took advantage of us both.

When they came to you

to find out about the lost boys,

he remembered the Azcárate name.

We all fell for it.

We got sympathetic, let our guard down

and couldn't be bothered to look into it.

But you were the one who figured it out.

Yes, but too late.

-Did you find him?

-No.

He's not here.

Looks like he took his things, too.

At least he didn't hurt anyone

or steal from us.

Are you sure?

Oh!

Stay here.

Oh, God.

Oh, no. My money!

What money?

Did you have money saved in there?

No, a It doesn't matter.

I was just keeping some money there.

No, no, no.

"I'm very sorry things ended like this."

"It's not personal, it's business."

"Some win and some lose."

"No matter what, I appreciate how

you treated me. It was special."

"I have the fondest memories."

"If it's any comfort,

the boys you're looking for are alive."

"I don't know where, but they're alive."

"If it's any comfort,

the boys you're looking for are alive."

"I don't know where, but they're alive."

What happened?

The door was open

and I saw the police car.

Well, Carlos Mauricio

Stay calm, Primitiva.

The important thing is

that the boys are alive.

Stay calm, Primitiva. Come.

Come here.

All right!

Good, good!

Good!

Good!

Thank you!

Welcome to freedom.

Here's the order.

Let's go. You're free.

Thank you.

Honey!

Okay.

You're you're out. You're free.

Life is giving us a second chance.

Thank you.

She's not coming.

And Lucy?

Wait, what are the plans?

We have no plans.

Life is a constant improvisation.

Seriously?

We'll go to Bogotá.

Are we going on foot?

No! Of course not.

I'm sure someone will pick us up.

But we're too many. We stink too much

for someone to stop and pick us up.

Well, then we'll go on foot.

And where will we sleep?

What do you mean, "where"? On the ground.

The Earth is our mother.

She welcomes us with love.

What's important is that we get

to the airport in Bogotá,

so you can go to the U.S. with the goods.

Are you still in?

Yes, of course.

I honestly can't wait to get back

to my country, but with money.

Very good. Well said.

Lucy,

can we talk?

Yes, of course.

Smile! Smile, Luis.

I'll leave you here.

So, what's the plan?

No plans.

Life is a constant improvisation.

Ah!

Whatever you say, Luis.

Okay, fine. We're going to Bogotá.

Are you sure you want to do it?

Yes You?

I have to stay. I have to finish

the documentary, turn it in.

I have a lot to do. But

I don't want you to be alone.

Then stay with me.

I can't.

I have a project in Cali,

a lot of work to do.

Come on, your mom is here,

your family is here.

What'll you do in Bogotá?

Go back to my country.

Really?

Yeah. I don't think

this country is for me.

All my friends are in the U.S.

But your family is here.

Yeah, but they have a lot

to get through without me.

Either way, I don't want you to be alone.

Then

I really don't want you to go,

but we have different plans.

Take care of yourself. Promise?

I promise.

And if you want to go to the U.S. someday

It was nice to meet you.

Yes. It was nice.

Bye!

Bye! Be well!

-Bye, everyone! Thanks for everything.

-Love and peace.

-Bye, Luis!

-Peace and love.

Peace and love.

Bye.

Dad.

Rogelio is in prison.

-What?

-Yes.

They put Rogelio in prison.

He tried to strangle a woman,

Sara's biological mother.

She was able to prove that Rogelio did

actually try to k*ll Joaquín.

It was all laid out in a letter.

Can you believe it?

What else did the letter say?

Oh, Dad, please!

Don't you think that's enough?

Is it authentic?

Dad, please! Stop defending Rogelio!

Rogelio is a criminal. Open your eyes!

And Sarita?

Does she know?

I don't know.

She left because she wanted

to be away from all of us.

And you let her go?

Dad, she's 20. What could I do?

How could I keep her here?

Times have changed.

That girl really doesn't matter

to you at all.

All that matters to you

is that n*gro criminal.

Dad, please! What do those things

have to do with each other?

Her being gone doesn't mean I'm not

looking out for her or caring for her.

I already asked someone

to check on her for me.

Who?

Someone who can be trusted.

You have no information

about the young people

who were camped out at El Albor plains?

Look, they had an eviction order,

but then they left, sir.

They were trespassing on private property.

Yes, I know.

The issue is that Mrs. Azcárate's daughter

had been staying with the commune,

before they left.

I'd like to know if she went back

to find them at some point.

Look, when we went to inspect the property

around there, it was already empty, sir.

But a group that big can't go unnoticed.

No one knows where they went? Really?

Passengers for Santa Marta,

please board the bus,

we are departing!

Go ahead.

Last call for Santa Marta! Departing now!

Could this truck take us?

Sir.

Are you going to Bogotá?

Can you take us? We're not many.

No, no, no. I'm not going to Bogotá.

I'm looking for Sara Benítez.

Her mother, Mariana Azcárate,

is worried about where she could be

and wants to know if she came back

to you all or told you anything.

She was here, but she left

to find her own purpose in life.

Now she's a free spirit.

Oh

While she was with all of you,

she never said anything?

Lucy!

Do you know what became of Sara?

No.

No. She didn't come back

and didn't tell us her plans either.

You're Lucy?

Yes. Yes, sir.

I'm Joaquín Mosquera's father.

You're my grandfather?

Oh! I can't believe it!

Oh!

I have a grandfather!

And I have a granddaughter.

You're so lovely.

And very intelligent.

Your dad was released.

He just got out of prison.

For good?

For good.

They proved he was innocent.

And you should come see him.

He deserves to share

this happiness with you.

With family.

I I don't

He's your father!

Let's load your things onto the truck

and go back to the estate.

He'll be so happy to see you.

We have plans.

-What a joy to have you at home.

-Thanks!

Welcome.

Hey guys!

-Morning!

-How are you?

-Good morning.

-Good to see you!

-How are things?

-Very good!

-Sir!

-Welcome.

-How's it going?

-Well.

-Hey!

-So good to see you, sir!

But we'd like to know if,

now that you're back,

you might want to take your family

back to the U.S.

And who said that, huh?

No, no, no. That won't happen.

I'm a man of my word.

And I will keep my promise to you

when I came here.

We'll get this estate off the ground

for everyone's benefit.

Bravo!

Great!

She hasn't eaten anything.

Primitiva,

are you okay?

Should we call a doctor?

I don't need a doctor.

Leave me alone, please.

Oh, dear. She's still in shock.

She needs more time.

Let's go.

So

you're not going back with us to the U.S.

Let's sit down.

No.

There's still a lot to do here.

Plus, the court order says

I can't leave the country for a year.

You're never coming back, are you?

Admit it.

It's not the courts. It's Mariana.

Because it's always been Mariana.

Carla.

Yes.

It's because of Mariana too.

I swear I don't want to hurt you.

-But you are.

-I know.

I know. Please forgive me for not

loving you like you deserve.

No!

You were always honest.

The problem was me.

For always hoping

for something you couldn't give me.

No. It's my fault for roping you

into my tragedy. I shouldn't have done it.

I could've left the whole time,

but I never did. I stayed!

But don't worry. I'll be leaving soon,

so you can live the life

you always dreamed of.

No, no, no, Carla.

Please don't be mistaken.

I had an amazing life by your side.

I was happy. You gave me a daughter.

We built a business.

Without you, I wouldn't have

been able to move on.

I always thought

that, over all these years,

I'd been preparing myself

for when this moment would come.

But no, no I'm not ready.

As soon as Lucy comes back,

I'm getting us ready to leave first thing.

Carla, please.

Let Lucy stay with me, please. Okay?

Don't take her away.

-Daughter!

-Dad! Mom!

My love!

Dad, it's so great that you're free.

Yes, to make up for lost time.

Thank you, Dad!

Lucy, I thought you weren't coming back!

I had to come back and see Dad.

Plus, the plans changed a little.

I didn't come alone. I came with friends.

Lucy!

Oh, Mom. Be glad not all of them came.

Some went to Bogotá.

-What?

-Dad, can they stay here?

-Sir, don't worry. We won't bother anyone

-No.

and we can put

our tents up in any pasture.

No.

It's okay.

Welcome.

-How great! Thanks!

-Thanks, old buddy!

Thanks, Dad.

"Old buddy"?

Are you sure you don't need help?

Can I do anything for you?

No.

There's a telephone over there in case you

want to call someone to get you.

Thank you.

Hello?

It's Sara.

I had no one else to call and

and I need your help.

So, you couldn't find Sara.

I tried to track her down.

But the last person who said they saw her

said she bought

a bus ticket to Santa Marta.

Santa Marta?

Well, at least she went to the sea.

They say it cures everything.

What if she doesn't come back?

No. Children always come back,

Mrs. Mariana.

Sooner or later, Sara will need her mom.

Well, in the letter she left,

she said she needed time,

and that she would call, but

why is there no complete happiness?

Joaquín is free now,

but my daughter is gone.

I'm missing my other half.

Lucy is sure Sara will show up soon.

You met your granddaughter, huh?

Yes.

I don't know which makes me happier,

meeting her or Joaquín's release.

It's wonderful

to see the family whole again.

What do you mean? Is Lucy at El Búcaro?

Yes, I picked her up on my way back.

Oh, how great! Joaquín must be so happy.

He deserves to be happy,

to be surrounded by his family, by

by the people he loves.

Yes. That's why he can't wait to see you.

Tonight.

Sara.

-Thanks for coming.

-Oh, please!

Aguilar.

What's going on with Benítez? Where is he?

The cell block downstairs.

He pays four guys to guard him

and doesn't leave the cell. He's a coward.

Wait, wait. Don't go.

The guy's pretty cramped down there.

And there's an extra bed here.

You want him transferred up here?

Thanks again for coming.

I didn't know who to call.

Well, it's the least I can do.

I suppose your mom has no idea

about this plan.

No, because there's no plan.

The only think I had clear in my head was

I wanted to get away from her, my family,

because, Eliana, there are

there are just so many things to process.

It turns out my dad's a criminal.

I'm sorry, Sara.

I wanted to know the truth

about my life to, I don't know, to have

at least some clue of who I am

who I should be.

And now, I don't have the slightest idea.

No. You are you.

Besides your family, you are you.

I know from experience.

I don't even know what I want. Well,

-I've never known.

-No.

Eliana, you of all people know I tried

with all my heart to find my calling.

But apparently there isn't one.

Well, you reached out to me for a reason.

And how did you get here?

What are you looking for?

I don't know. To get away.

Go to the sea. I don't know.

And then everything seemed so absurd.

The sun, the beach, the sand are all nice.

Then what?

Mm-hmm.

I understand. You want to escape,

but in the end, you have to go back.

Go back? No.

Go back to where? The estate?

The university?

I have nowhere to go back to.

Do you know the artist Mazuera?

-The sculptor?

-Yes, yes.

Of course I know who he is.

Okay, I have an idea.

Listen,

I believe you have exceptional talent.

You're very good at what you do.

You're very good at photography.

If you want

to deeply explore your identity,

immerse yourself in that talent.

You must believe in yourself.

He has a workshop for young talent,

for young students like you.

It's a form of education that has nothing

to do with academics, but it's very

it's very honest, but also very strict.

If you don't give all of yourself,

you must leave the workshop.

I think you should go there.

I can help you. Say yes.

Okay, but what if

I don't have the talent for this?

Oh, of course you have it!

You can't feel defeated

if you haven't gone to battle.

Let me help you.

Primitiva, at least have some coffee.

Stay awake? What's the point?

Sleeping is better.

You weren't the only one they tricked.

Both of us lost something.

You'll recoup your money.

But I can't recoup a son.

The police will find him.

Why do I need them to find him?

Carlos Mauricio is nothing.

He was never anything.

Losing a son is hard.

But losing him twice? It's dreadful.

But the letter said the two boys

were alive. We could look for them.

And how do you know that's true?

Um, we could find Ignacia

and force her to confess.

Ignacia's not there. She fled.

The police confirmed it.

It was all a scam.

A farce.

They tricked us.

And I

have a pain in my chest

that keeps getting worse.

My heart

keeps hurting more.

It's like I have a wall

that won't let me breathe.

-I can't breathe.

-Primitiva.

Oh, this woman is not well.

I'm calling a doctor.

Primitiva, breathe. Um

Was the food good?

Delicious!

Thanks so much.

They really cook well here.

Yeah, they really do cook well.

Are you sure none of you want to go in?

You can take showers,

and there are enough beds for everyone.

No, we're honestly very happy here.

Maybe we'll shower tomorrow.

Oh, no, Luis. I'm thinking

of sleeping in my little bed.

Oh! You're returning

to your bourgeois life so fast.

Is it so bad to have a family?

No, but it's a little bad that you

only just arrived at your parents' house,

and they're running your life.

That's not true.

What happened to the adventurous girl

who wanted to make her own way?

I'm here!

Lucy, I won't judge you.

It's not your fault. The system trapped

you and won't let you go.

Stay here, happy, on your parents' farm.

The path to freedom isn't for everyone.

So

it seems clear to me that

the trip we'd planned

for you to go to the U.S.

to seek your independence

isn't going to happen.

Oh yes, it is.

Really?

You're willing to leave

your mom's warm little bed?

Yes.

Okay, get the money, but it

has to be tonight. We leave tomorrow.

Sleep well.

I can't believe you're here.

That you're alive.

That you're here with me.

Always, we'll always be together.

I promise.

I dreamed about this moment for so long.

Me too.

And if I told you that

I was with you in my dreams,

would you believe me?

I could always feel that you were alive.

I could always feel you near.

-We've lost so much time, haven't we?

-No.

It doesn't matter.

It's not worth thinking

about something we didn't have

because now we have each other, and

we have a life,

the most important thing, Mariana.

And I'm going to make it up to you.

Till we're old and gray?

Yes, till we're old and gray.

And?

Where will you start?

Here.

-Did you sleep well?

-Yes.

Okay. Let's make breakfast.

Is something wrong?

Sit down.

Your father and I are going to separate.

You saw it coming, right?

It's important for people

to do what they must to be happy.

Sacrificing freedom doesn't make sense.

Like it also doesn't make sense

to love someone

who doesn't love you back the same way.

You gave your whole life to him, Mom.

What for?

Honey, it was

my decision.

And I don't regret it,

and I want you to know that.

You know,

it was the most wonderful decision

I've made because

because you're here.

You got carried away by convention, Mom.

-Why have a marriage for appearances?

-No, dear.

It's possible your dad and I were mistaken

for many years,

but we loved each other.

We always loved each other in our way.

It was never artificial.

We've never been enough for Dad.

He's always been distant.

Lucy, he's always been there for you!

He adores you.

You know that. He loves you.

-No.

-Yes.

If it weren't so, he wouldn't have asked

me to let you stay.

Really?

Yes. He doesn't want you to go back

to the U.S. with me.

He wants you to stay here with him.

I believe that if you

tell your dad that

it's better if he comes back

to the U.S. with us,

maybe he'll listen to you and

he'll come with us.

He'd leave Mariana?

Yes, I think so.

But I wouldn't

I wouldn't ask you to do that.

Know what?

I want you to get to know Sara.

I mean get to know her for real.

What else could I want? Except

for you to get to know my daughter too.

I don't want her to leave.

I know it sounds selfish

to ask Carla to leave her here,

but I want her to discover my home,

where I grew up, my people,

to get to know my sister and father,

everything I've missed so much.

Oh, yes. It's understandable.

She's important to you.

She matters most to me in this life.

And you.

I understand you perfectly, my love.

I'm a parent, too.

Love for our children is

enormous, but it's a different love,

isn't it?

And in a way, they've kept us alive.

That's right.

And someday I want us

to be one united family.

No rush.

We're not kids anymore, right?

-Oh, no?

-No.

We have a life now.

And you have an estate, and your daughter.

And Carla.

And I have my dad and

and Sara and the estate.

In the end, what separates us?

-A fence?

-I'll take it down.

What do you want me to say?

That I'm happy to see you

after what you did to me?

Viche, I know I backed out of the deal

with your partners.

That's the problem with all criminals.

If they betray one person,

they'll betray anyone.

-I'm not a criminal.

-Oh, no?

You were in prison all those times

for not being a criminal, then?

Unjustly.

Okay. Why'd you come?

I assume it wasn't to drink with me.

I don't have a job

-or a girlfriend. Imagine that.

-Ah!

Know what I learned in this business?

If you're going to be loyal to something,

it has to be the money.

Not the women.

Money knows how to treat you.

It doesn't betray you.

Okay. Cheers, then.

I'm taking this.

Cheers.

What?

So, I guess you're looking for work,

and not waiting tables, I'm sure.

Put me on something.

What about your brother? I heard

you were working together. Are you not?

Let's say his calling is not my calling.

There's something you need

to understand, okay?

Look, in life there are two types of work.

-One is hard work.

-Mm-hmm.

Low pay, you don't live well.

Low risk.

The only problem is, at month's end,

not knowing

if you'll have enough for groceries.

And there's the other path,

which you already know.

You earn a lot, you risk a lot.

You have to stay sharp.

The pay comes fast.

But you have to get used to

living under the radar.

You know this. Choose.

Thanks.

Hello?

Mariana?

This is Eliana Ospina.

Not sure if you remember me.

Of course, of course. The exhibit.

Um How are you? How can I help you?

Okay, well, I just wanted

to talk about Sara.

You know where she is?

Yes, I know where she is.

In Bogotá?

Um Well, she's near Bogotá.

At the studio of an artist named Mazuera,

a friend of mine.

She's studying. She's taken care of.

Your daughter is exceptionally talented.

Thank you so much

for keeping an eye on her.

And

Thank you for letting me know.

You really set my mind at ease.

Well, you can rest assured

she'll come back.

But she'll do it

when she's at peace, when

when she feels able

to forgive herself and others.

But I think you should prepare yourself

because you saw her leave a girl

and she'll come back a woman.

She's already a woman.

Mariana, Sara will make her way.

Do you know something?

I don't know if I should

be saying this, but

I know Sara isn't your biological

daughter, but you have a lot in common.

Thanks so much, Eliana.

Be well.

Bye.

-You really want me to stay with you?

-Yes.

Yes, really.

I want to share my life with you.

I want you to know where I come from.

Because, sweetheart, my homeland,

my history,

you carry it in your blood, too.

And if I tell you I don't want to stay?

If I ask you to come back with me?

I've never asked you for anything.

Maybe it's time you sacrificed for me.

I'll go with you.

I'll do what you ask me to.

You'd really sacrifice

your love for Mariana for me?

No, because there's no reason

to compare the two.

You're my daughter. I love you.

I love you,

and if you really need me right now,

I'll be there for you. I

I know Mariana will understand!

I know she'll come and

visit us anytime.

I didn't know you loved me so much.

I love you, dear.

And I really feel ashamed

seeing that I,

I didn't tell you that enough.

You didn't waver at all.

Look, if if all this time

I've been seeking justice,

it's been for you.

Because when people talk about your dad,

I want them to say

he was always a decent man.

I love you, Dad.

And I love you.

And I'll be so happy,

so happy to be wherever you are.

So, I'll stay. I'll stay here with you.

-Really?

-Yes.

So, then Sara's okay?

Yes!

Get this, a friend of hers,

Eliana, called me

and told me she's in Bogotá.

And she's studying

in the workshop of a famous artist.

Oh Thank you, God.

It's true. She needs time.

She wasn't prepared to hear all that news.

Yes, I would've liked

for things to have come out differently.

Me too.

But it's okay. I pray for her every day.

Your family gave her the artistic side

because mine has none of it.

Well, as far as I know, no.

Maybe an uncle liked to sing, but

Okay, Jazmín, if I hear anything else,

I'll call you back.

Please do.

God bless you. I'll pray for you both.

Amen.

What happened?

I know where Sara is.

Oh! Blessed be the Lord!

Is she okay?

Hello?

Mr. Arias. Yes, it's a pleasure.

Head of the Bank of Cali.

Yes, yes, yes. Tell me.

No, no, no.

No, wait a moment. This can't be.

But please verify what you're telling me.

Yes. I'll call you back.

What happened?

This morning I wrote out

a bunch of checks to pay the workers,

and the accounts are empty. No money.

What?

But that can't be, Mariana.

Well, it was Rogelio, Ofelia!

It must've been him.

My dad gave him access to the accounts.

I can't believe even while he's in prison,

he can keep hurting us!

Oh my God, your dad's going to die

when he finds out.

No! Tell him nothing.

You can't tell him.

-Okay.

-I'll see what I can do.
