02x04 - The Watch

[bunniefuu]

PREVIOUSLY ON

Who are you?

Don't remember me?
I'm Pedro, your dad's friend.

Why are you here?

You just gave me a brilliant idea.

We have to remodel the bar.

-[Amelia] To make what?
-A concert café.

I'm a musician.

Ah...

[metal scraping]

[clinks]

If you promise me that the text
won't be touched, I'm willing to continue.

Okay, Marco. Wait.

-I'm... I'm not lying.
-His name isn't even Fausto.

You called him "Marco."

[Bárbara] I can't believe it.

It was Cocó!

[Allegra chuckles] It's a little cat.

[buzzing]

[cat yowling]

-[both laugh]
-[Caterina applauds]

-Very good, lovely.
-Really nice.

So, the idea is that, obviously,
the Sharp ladies will have their moment

and shortly after, more voices join in.

And by the end,
everyone's singing together.

[Cocó] Right on.

And Diego's about to arrive.
I'm sure he'll love it too.

Oh, well, we have to get going.

Yes. Um, I'll e-mail you the song later.

[Caterina] Okay.

But mailing it will take forever, Allegra.

[laughs]

[whispers] Guys, guys,
I know what we have to do now.

Come, come.

But I told you it's not like that.

Cocó doesn't have the watch.
I looked for it, but I couldn't find it.

What good does it do us anyway, sweetie?

There must be a thousand of those watches.

[Pedro] No.

There's not a thousand more.

And how do you know?

There was a time
when Cocó and I were very close.

I know her better than anyone.

I'm doing my part.

You do yours.

What if the answer to our questions about
the travels, the cat, and the bracelet

is in Light Years,
the novel written by Caterina?

It could be. It's in the library at home.

[Bárbara] I need to talk to you right now.

[chuckles] I can't right now, I'm doing...

I'm sure that can wait, sweetie.
But this can't.

Okay.

You guys go on.

Uh... Okay.

Uh, I did a lot...

I really doubt it...

So, listen to me.

[sighs]

I'm about to tell you...

something heavy.

And if you find it odd
that I'm telling you

it's because you're the one
who made me trust Cocó.

And if I'm still working here,
after I sold you all the theater

it's because you...

told me that you were
going to be my new family.

Bárbara, why are you telling me all this?
Get to the point. What you want?

Okay, sweetie.

Cocó set the theater on fire.

And I'm going to report her.

INTERTWINED

You look over there.

What?

Nothing. Nothing.

Why are you helping me?

Because I want to resolve this
as quickly as possible. [sighs]

PRIDE & PREJUDICE

I honestly didn't know that you

and Allegra were...

"LIGHT YEARS"

Look, here's something.

[sighs]

You really are
always prepared for everything.

Yes, for everything

except an interdimensional traveler
who came to complicate our lives.

Well, let's just say
you don't make it easy neither.

Want me to help or not?

"Luz took note of everything
she was learning in the new world.

She feared that what she was living
would vanish from her memory.

Her diary was a big book of adventures."

The diary!

There has to be more information!
[chuckles]

The diary!

-What diary?
-Lucía's.

-[sighs]
-And where is it?

In the past.

The producers want something in advance,
and I don't know what to tell them.

-[phone rings in the distance]
-[inhales]

Cocó, I need to be at today's reading
to see how the changes are implemented.

How did you know about the reading?

Well, uh...

I just ran into a cast member
and she mentioned it to me.

Sorry, but what's the problem?

-Nothing.
-Then see you at this afternoon's reading.

-[door closes]
-[sighs]

So? What happened with Bárbara?

She thinks Cocó set the theater on fire.

-What?
-You heard it.

She showed me
the security camera recording.

-The ones you mentioned.
-Yes.

Why didn't you tell me
the watch was just like Cocó's?

And how was I supposed to know?

Wait...

How does she have that recording...

if the VHS tapes are at my house?

Maybe she has a copy.

[scoffs] Or maybe she stole them from me.

Well, that doesn't matter anyway.

Bárbara wants to find Cocó's watch,
so she can report her.

You know Bárbara will say anything.

Yes. But she seems very determined.

Ugh, and this time she's right.
It's the same watch.

Wait, wait... it doesn't make sense.
Wh-Why would Cocó set the theater on fire?

Exactly. She's not capable
of doing something like that.

Well, Cocó did betray Tomás
to defend Caterina, too.

-Don't forget that...
-Okay, but that's another story.

This is much more serious.

I'm gonna figure out what happened.

While you figure that out,
Bárbara's going to find the watch.

No.

She won't find it.

[applause]

Here.

You said you wanted to sing together
to hear me out. You're phat. [chuckles]

[scoffs]

No, no, no, what I mean
is that you're incredible

and you've got the talent to do it solo.

Ah. [chuckles]

Yes, but I can stand out more with you.

Amelia, do you have time to go for a walk?
I want to talk about...

No-no, not right now, hmm? I have to go.

-Talk later, okay?
-I thought we'd talk about...

[Amelia] No, I can't right now.

-[steps approach]
-[both sigh]

-Do you need help?
-[Paloma clicks tongue]

-Give it here. I'll take it.
-Thanks.

[sniffs]

-Are you upset?
-No.

No, something's up. I know you.

[puffs]

[chuckles]

I can't lie to you. [inhales sharply]

I don't want to lie to you.

You and I have been friends
for many years.

And lately, something's been changing.

I... I can't stop thinking about you.

Mmm...

I think of you almost all day.

And at night...

I think of you...

and me...

together.

Wow, I don't know what...

You don't have to say anything.

I feel guilty because Amelia is my friend.

But well, I had to get that off my chest
before you leave.

[scoffs]

Sorry, but leave for where?

For New York.

With Amelia. [chuckles]

I saw the savings jar she has
for you two to go to Broadway.

You didn't know?

No.

Forget it. [clicks tongue]

-Forget it. I said nothing, okay?
-No, no, no. Stop, stop, stop...

Paloma.

I don't get it...

Where do you and I stand in all this?

[inhales]

We'll always be together.

[sighs] One way or another.

[chuckles]

Huh...

Are you okay?

Uh... I have to go.

Where are you going?

I'm going to Amelia's house.

[claps] I'll go with you.

[birds chirping]

What's this?

A gift for you. Open it.

Wow.

[Pedro] It's so that every day,
at 11 o'clock sharp

you can remember our big project.

[laughs] What project?

Well, with your artistic talent
and my producing skills

we can put together Argentina's
first musical theater company.

I mean, only if you want to.

-Yes. [laughs]
-[laughs]

Yes, obviously.

But why 11 o'clock?

Eleven o'clock is
the most important scene in a musical.

It's the number where
the lead has a big revelation.

Well, I'm sure you already knew that.

That's what happened to me
when I heard you sing for the first time.

It was a revelation.

[Amelia chuckles]

I love it. Thank you.

Who do you love?

The watch.

The project.

Everything.

Okay, if we want to be first,
we have to hurry.

If the reopening goes well

then in a year I could be...

on Broadway.

And then I'll have time to send
separate applications to each school.

No, you don't have to send
an application to any school.

Amelia, you're more than ready.

I told you, right? I'm working
in production for a workshop there.

Yes.

Well, I got you an audition for a musical.

You won't do it on Broadway, just yet.

But it's in New York.

Seriously? What do I have to do?

Pack your suitcase.

Rehearse.
We have the audition on Saturday.

[laughs nervously] No, no, no.

Uh, look, I haven't saved enough money
to pay for the ticket yet, so...

[Allegra] I'll take care of that.

I have my savings.

[gasps]

Yes, but I still can't.

And there's Paloma and Franco...

And the reopening. I can't fail them.

[sighs] The era of us women putting
everyone else ahead of our dreams is over.

You finally have
the chance you've always wanted.

If they're really your friends

they would understand.

[doorbell rings]

Excuse me. I'll get it.

Your grandma's right, Amelia.
Listen to her.

[door opens]

[Allegra] Hi, Franco! Come in, come in.

What's he doing here?

He, uh... came to bring records.

[Pedro] Sure...

And I was just leaving.

What are you two doing here?

-Uh, I was wondering if...
-[door opens]

-[door closes]
-...if I could use the bathroom.

[Allegra] Come. It's this way.

I need to talk to you.

You were saving up to go to Broadway?

[scoffs]

How did you know?

So it's true.

-Yes...
-Are you going or not?

Yes.

-Yes, but the idea is to go together.
-[sighs]

-Hey, it was a surprise.
-Hmm...

I've been saving up
to buy our tickets for a year.

So, you planned a trip with me
and you didn't even ask if I wanted to go?

How could you not want to go?
It's New York!

Imagine us. Alone. There.

You'll achieve your dream, and me?

My dream is here.

[sighs]

Mine is not.

[Franco sighs deeply]

What did you want?

Did you want me to stay here?

No. No... But I would've appreciated
if you let me know.

You know I'd support you.

[chuckles]

[scoffs]

You don't care if I leave.

Yes, I care. Of course I care.

But I'm not gonna make you
give up on your dreams.

And it seems like,
no matter how much I ask you

you won't give up on yours either.

It seems that the best thing would be...

for us to go our separate ways.

I don't know if it's for the best.

But we don't have another option.

[chuckles]

I can still count on you
for The Grotto's relaunch, right?

Uh... Yes. [chuckles]

Yes, of course.

Okay.

[door opens]

[door closes]

[footsteps approaching]

[papers rustle]

What are you doing here?

Who are you?

I'm Amelia's friend.

No... I'm looking for the bathroom.

And why didn't you use the one downstairs?

No, uh...

The house is really big and I didn't...

I got lost. [chuckles]

Hmm...

The bathroom's this way.

Come on. Let's go.

But, what happened with Tomás?

Do you remember if they found evidence
that he set the theater on fire?

Hmm. Allegra, Cocó explained everything.

And on top of that, this happened...

-well, a very long time ago.
-Mm-hmm.

Why are you suddenly obsessed with this?

No, it's just that...

Félix is...

He's making a documentary.

He's, um...

-looking for conceptual history.
-Uh-huh.

And he asked me, with a formal invitation,
to help research the theater's history.

-Ah...
-Hmm.

Okay. Okay, we'll talk later.

-And hurry because Cocó's waiting.
-Mm-hmm.

[clattering]

-[barking in distance]
-What was that?

Nothing. Nothing.

[stutters] Uh...

Ah, silly me. I left my TV show on.

I paused it and looks like
it restarted out of nowhere.

Okay, turn it off, Allegra,
and hurry because they're waiting.

Yes, see you. [chuckles]

Hmm...

[door opens, closes]

And?

I found it.

And did you see your mom again?

-Yes.
-[gasps]

-She told dad she loved him and...
-[gasps]

...I realized something.

They had to end up together.

Just like us.

Yes, well, we don't know
how our story ends yet.

I already know.

Allegra, we're from different timelines.

We don't have anything in common,
but even so...

look at us.

There's something that'll always unite us.

It doesn't matter how much time passes
or how far apart we are.

We'll always find each other.

It's our destiny to be together.

Well, I want us to be together, but close.

So, let's go back to Lucía's books.

[snaps fingers]

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE

Marco Resco.

Huh...

Look! It's the same cat.

Yes, there are other things too.
Look here...

We'll take this to Félix.

Can you go? I have something to do.

[knocking]

[gasps]

What are you doing here?

Hi. They...

At the club, uh, they gave me directions.

-You give fishing lessons, no?
-No, no, no...

Must've been a mistake.

Ah! Oh, no!

No! No, don't say that.

I just got this fishing pole as a gift
but I don't know how to use it.

Uh...

Well, ask someone
at the club to explain it.

It's very easy.

Well, if it's very easy, you can show me.

I already told you I don't give classes.

Just tell me how to use it, that's all.

Well, I can't just tell you.
I have to show you and...

[sighs]

Where did you get that case?

I had the same one, but it broke
and I couldn't find another one.

It was sold out.

Where did you get it?

[sighs] I'll tell you on the way.

No-no, I haven't said yes yet.

-Well, you haven't said no either.
-[scoffs]

You're not going to stop, huh?

That's right, come on.
I've got the day off.

You know, it's not fun fishing solo.

Hmm...

Or you have
something better to do at home?

[chuckles]

[sighs] I'll be back with my pole.

May I have a glass of water?
I'm so thirsty...

Uh...

-Yes...
-What a nice house.

Come in, come in.

And how did they meet? Fausto and Allegra?

And why do you want to know?

'Cause I'm helping with the documentary,
so I have to know everything...

-I don't need help, thanks anyway.
-Oh, please!

-What's wrong?
-Uh... Nothing, nothing.

I'm just not used to your...

style, heh.

You want to talk about style?

DRESSING ROOMS - STAGE
BATHROOMS

I told you,
I think Fausto has to tell his story.

It's part of Allegra's life.

[Allegra] Who's part of my life?

Me. Me.

Exactly. That's why I was looking for you.
We need to talk.

Ah, yes. [laughs] Of course, I'll go.

Um, let me know when you finish

so I can tell you my ideas
for the documentary and all that.

-Sure, sure.
-Yes. Okay!

-Bye!
-Bye...

That girl is so odd.

Didn't know she was helping
with your documentary.

Me neither. [chuckles]

-He got them!
-I think they might work.

For sure. Uh, I mean, I have to
review them but I can't right now.

Cocó will k*ll me
if I'm late to the reading.

Hmm...

No.

She won't because now
we have an assistant.

Clara!

Yes?

You appear just when I stop looking.
I feel something...

I have to learn it can't be controlled.
I think the best...

[floor squeaks]

[door opens, closes]

[footsteps approaching]

What up?

I was, um, looking around. [exhales]

Who is...

Paloma?

[Cocó]
Welcome to the reading of Light Years.

[Bárbara] Here you go.

[Cocó] We'll take...

LIGHT YEARS

...this show to the next level.

Please, I ask that everyone
keeps an open mind at this reading.

-[Bárbara] Mm-hmm.
-[Caterina] Yes.

[papers rustling]

Hmm...

Act one. Scene one.

"Luz enters the bedroom"...

I'm sorry.

This...

Scene one isn't like this.

It is now.

"Luz enters the bedroom"...

I knew I couldn't trust you.

[coughs]

It's not a big deal, Caterina.

It is to me.

I clearly told you that I wouldn't accept
any changes to the text.

Nothing matters to you.

I'm out.

[sighs]

If anyone else disagrees,
now is the time to withdraw.

Don't follow your mother's whims.

It's not a whim.

It is when it affects your career.

Allegra...

[inhales deeply]

Clara, please...

Take a seat and read the character of Luz.

[sighs]

-Let's go.
-[inhales deeply]

Act one, scene one.

[seagulls squawking]

[fishing rod spinning]

[sighs]

Paloma was my wife.

[sighs] She was the love of my life.

She loved to cook...

to make up new recipes.

[laughs] And everything
she made was inedible.

But her voice...

When she sang, the room lit up.

And she didn't like
to sing much in public, but...

when she did, it was magical.

She died a few years
after the birth of our son, Marco.

[inhales] And...

-Well...
-Sorry, I...

-I didn't...
-No, no, no. No need to be sorry.

It's fine. I...

I like talking about her.

It's good for me.

I couldn't even say her name for years
because it hurt too much.

Now I feel different.

It doesn't hurt anymore?

It does.

It'll hurt until my dying day,
but you know what?

I realized that
when something so strong unites us

in spite of time and all the years,
it's not worth it to keep quiet.

It's not worth it to hide it.

[chuckles]

[inhales]
Well, let's see how this is going.

-Yes.
-[Franco inhales]

[grunts]

[squawking continues]

EXIT

[footsteps approaching]

Sweetie?

[sighs]

Do what you have to do.

[ticking]

I came as soon as I could. 'Sup?

Sit down. This is a lot to process, okay?

Lucía documented all of her experiences
with the bracelet and the cat.

She knew a lot more
than what she told Allegra.

However, um, it's like she was never able
to complete her research for some reason.

And...

these pages...

seem to be old pages taken from somewhere.

But, I can't understand it yet.

Look.

Lucía wrote that purple is
associated with danger.

DANGER
LEARNED

RESULT
DANGER

See all these purple dots?

They're travelers who, like you,
defied the bracelet before putting it on.

[Lucía] It's very dangerous!

In contrast to the green ones,
like Allegra,

who had something specific to learn...

LEARNING

...you all also have
a very important mission.

What mission?

I don't know. I don't know.

But what I do know
is that all the purple travelers

stayed in the year that they traveled to.

They never returned to their original time
after finishing their journey.

And so, if I accomplish this mission

I'll be able to stay here?

Uh... Uh, yeah, we don't know that yet.

It might not be so easy
for you to accomplish.

Your cell phone?

The last difference between
the travelers you see in green

is that the ones you see in purple
only have 12 days to achieve everything.

And you have five days left.

But I don't know what I have to do yet.

Time's running out.

30 DAYS

5 DAYS
