[Intriguing music playing]
But why would you give approval
to run a DNA test
without getting my permission?
[doctor] The babies' genetic makeup
came back,
and there are some concerns.
Some irregularities in the analysis.
You told me you had active
sexual relationships
with both your husbands, right?
So one of them, Alejo Valdés,
authorized the use of his sample
for the investigation.
And because that result was also atypical,
it… it forced us to run a second test.
A comparative test.
So not once did it cross your mind
to first get my approval
before you proceeded
with the paternity test?
Can't believe this.
-I haven't finished, Alice.
-I have.
You're having two boys.
[tense music playing]
They're in perfect health,
the both of them.
[Susana] Hey!
How'd it go?
What?
Two boys.
Oh, Ali! That's adorable!
I mean, how cute!
What's this? What's the matter?
You wanted two girls, or what?
They performed a DNA test
without getting my permission.
Ah sh*t.
That's the dad on the paper.
No. No! Is this possible?
-Yeah.
-[chuckles] No!
[intriguing music playing]
What am I gonna do now?
Girl, write a book.
JUST ALICE
EPISODE 19
HAPPY END
And so, the people of Colombia
will be choosing their next president
as we report on the finer details
of this election day.
We are about to link
with one of our colleagues,
who is in one of the most important…
-Hey. Seriously, Alice.
-No.
This is exhausting. For real.
Jesus. We have been listening to this…
this damn election day stuff all day.
Put on some headphones or something.
You're gonna wear all this?
Oh, I don't know.
Let me see. Help me choose.
I don't like anything.
What should I wear? Do you like this?
-You look great. Yeah.
-I feel like a balloon.
But a little pretty red balloon though.
Yeah, thanks. Hand me the white one.
[Susana laughs]
I mean, look at this, Su.
And I've still got two months.
I mean, in a week,
I'll be wearing a tent or something.
Ugh, girl, you are hot.
You look gorgeous. Come on.
Okay, I think this is the one.
I'm into it.
Well, I am taking off to go vote.
Then I'm going to the hotel,
because, can you believe it,
Laura didn't give me the day off.
-Mm-hmm.
-She's seriously exploiting me.
-Wait, you're picking me up afterwards?
-Unbelievable.
-Um…
-Right?
No, because I got a thing
I gotta take care of.
Susana, I know you.
Do not try to interfere
with Rita's wedding. Look at me.
I don't know who Rita is.
Ah.
Hey, so speaking of,
are Pablo and Alejo going?
I think so, yeah.
I have a bunch of people helping me, so…
[upbeat pop music playing]
Okay, well, you look really cute.
I'm leaving. See you at four.
-Don't be late.
-Yeah, yeah. I know. Bye.
[Alice] Ladies, hi.
The launch starts at 4:00,
but please try to get there earlier, okay?
I'm nervous,
and I want you all there with me.
[moans]
[moaning continues]
[both chuckle]
-[music ends]
-[both laugh]
I can't believe that,
after the year we've both had,
we're having such a good time.
Well, to be fair,
we've never had this much fun at all.
[both laughing]
I think we're doing better than ever.
I think you're doing better than ever
because someone is into
having a piece on the side.
-No, no. Don't say that.
-Mm-hmm.
-No, Lau. No.
-Mm-hmm.
[scoffs]
Lau, we're… we're married to each other.
Legally married to each other.
-Mm-hmm.
-We never got divorced.
[Laura] Mm.
And this thing that we're doing
was a mutual decision.
-No.
-Yes.
Nuh-uh. The decision was
you would speak to Eva.
-I will speak to her.
-When?
-W… When she gives birth. I told you.
-Oh, Martín!
-What?
-[chuckles] There's still a month to go.
-Well, yeah. That's… that's nothing.
-That's a whole lot.
That's a long time,
depending on how you look at it.
-Lau…
-Oh, yeah.
-Zip me up.
-[phone chimes]
[Alice] Ladies, hi!
The launch starts at 4:00,
but please try to get there earlier, okay?
I'm nervous,
and I want you all there with me.
-Everything okay?
-Sure, sure, sure.
So meet you at Alice's launch
in a bit. Yeah?
Ali, of course.
We're all gonna be there with you.
And, Caro, just let me know
if you still want me to come get you.
I'm heading there now.
Have you seen my panties?
[laughs]
[whimsical music playing]
See ya!
[sighs]
[Carolina sighs]
How's the baby, Doctor?
Congratulations. It's a baby girl.
[gasps]
[laughs] A girl?
-Very nice!
-[woman] Cut!
-Nice job, guys. We've got it.
-Thank you.
Thank you.
All right. Wardrobe!
Thank you.
Okay.
Amber.
Is that my coffee? Thanks, my love.
Do you know how many scenes we have left?
Don't forget to email the producer
to tell him that next Saturday
is my Saturday off,
and they better not forget.
-Yes, ma'am.
-Thanks, my darling. See you in a sec.
[exhales]
[Laura] Ali, of course.
We're all gonna be there with you.
And, Caro, just let me know
if you still want me to come get you.
I'm heading there now.
Hi, friend!
How are you?
Listen, I brought my outfit
for the event to the studio.
So then, I'll send you a message.
I'm gonna change here in a bit.
Soon as I'm done filming,
just come pick me up. Yeah?
[kisses]
[emotional music playing]
Fran.
I can't thank you enough for understanding
that I needed this for myself.
Bye now.
-[doorbell ringing]
-[Alice] Susana?
-You're enormous! My God!
-[exclaims] No!
-Yes!
-Mommy!
Come in, come in, come in!
-What are you doing here?
-What do you mean?
I had to change my schedule.
How could I miss
your book launch and the days
after the birth of your babies?
-Thank you!
-[squeals joyfully]
Oh! How are my angels?
They're great.
-Yeah?
-But kicking.
Oh, just like their mother.
-Really? Did I kick a lot?
-Oh, yeah. You were something else.
From the very beginning, you wanted
to break out and take over the world!
Uh, what's that?
There's two.
Well, it's the same one,
but Pablo and Alejo.
Ah. Did you, uh, invite them?
Yeah. Well, not personally,
but everyone's helping me
to get them there.
Well, then. Ready?
Almost? Should we go? Yes? Come on!
[Alice] Help me! Help me! Mommy! You came!
[upbeat pop music playing]
In the name of the Father,
and of the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Friends, those of you who have not voted.
I'd love it if you would.
Don't forget, this is our Christian duty
as citizens of Colombia.
You may go in peace.
[all] Amen.
-Ducros.
-Welcome to Colombia.
-How are you? Everything okay?
-Yes, sir.
-How are the elections going?
-The polls are closing.
Things are quiet right now,
except for Beltrán,
who's insisting there's voter fraud.
I'm sure he's noticed
he's gonna lose by now.
Yeah, a blow he never saw coming.
Father Juan, Pablo,
I wanted to share this with you.
I went to the notary today to claim
the deeds to the land, and, well, look.
-I was able to legalize my home.
-What a blessing.
-I'm happy. Such good news.
-Just wonderful.
Thank you so much, Pablo,
and I wanted to apologize to you
because I wasn't supportive of you, and…
and it's because of you
that the neighbors have rightful ownership
of our land in our hands.
Don't thank me. No. Thank God above all.
-Yes.
-Yeah.
And Mancilla, who also helped us.
Hopefully, if Mancilla wins,
then Beltrán's little project
to demolish our houses and build the metro
through our neighborhood
will just up and disappear soon.
-Uh-huh.
-Yes, sir.
Hope so. Let's hope that's the case.
That's right. God willing. Right?
I'm really pleased.
That's wonderful news. I'm so happy.
[tense music playing]
Monsignor, how are you?
-Monsignor!
-How you doing?
Are you aware a deacon can't,
according to the church,
perform mass under any circumstance,
as it is considered heresy?
INCOMING CALL
[smooth pop music playing]
Yo, Ben, hey.
Like, right now?
Oh. Okay.
Okay, okay. I'm… I'll be there.
And with the blessing
of all those present,
I now declare you partners in life.
[laughs]
[guests cheering]
-I love you. I love you so much.
-I love you. Thank you. Thank you.
[romantic pop music playing]
[giggles]
[breathes deeply]
Hey.
I, um…
I came to… to break this on Vicky's head,
but… but I felt bad for the plant.
[both laughing]
No, I was actually gonna give you
a… a snake plant,
but, um, that seemed a bit too aggressive.
You're ridiculous.
You look beautiful, Rita.
You look very happy.
Thanks.
I'm very happy.
This is what I'd always dreamt of,
and I found Vicky
who wanted the same thing, so…
-You know I wanted all of this with you.
-I know.
-You do?
-I know.
But we both knew that… that really,
you never wanted any of it.
That's very true.
And you'll always be the same.
Maybe it's okay
to stay the same after all.
And the point of everything is just
accepting ourselves for who we are.
-Mm-hmm.
-Thanks, Rita.
First of all, for loving me so hard.
And for deciding to be happy.
[sniffles] Seriously.
Here.
I wish for you two to be happy, always.
I'm so pleased for you.
Uh, Susana.
Thanks for everything.
See ya.
[romantic pop music continues]
[Rita laughs]
Who's ready to party?
[guests cheering, clapping]
[sobbing]
[exhales]
What I don't understand
is how you found out every detail
about what I've been doing
in the neighborhood.
Oh, all of God's angels
have a way of spreading
whispers of hope and good news, my son.
To those believers he deems worthy.
Angels, right.
Well, then, son.
I'll be seeing you before the trip, yes?
Amen.
[church bell rings]
Thank you for coming.
Amen.
-What trip is he talking about?
-Sh! Wait!
[whispers] What trip is he talking about?
Well, the amount of faithfuls
that come here
caught the attention
of some members of the Archdiocese.
And apparently, some people higher up
wanna meet me.
Higher up?
The pope.
[both laughing]
To be honest, I'm not surprised, Pablo.
What you're doing in the neighborhood
is just marvelous.
You've increased
the foundation's programs,
and all of the boys and girls
are simply ecstatic with your workshops.
And you're innovating with those masses
in the street. You deserve it.
Yeah.
You're the angel who told him.
-Aren't you? Yes.
-No. No, no. No. Seriously, brother.
It wasn't me. I swear.
-Who was it, then?
-[phone ringing]
Hmm. Who knows?
Well, that's strange.
-One sec.
-Yeah.
Sup, Samuel?
[Benjamín] All right, guys.
Your room number is 206. Okay?
If you need anything,
anything at all, we're here 24/7.
-Great, thanks.
-[Benjamín] Sure thing. Have fun. Bye.
Ben.
-Hey, Dad!
-Hey!
How are you?
What's so urgent? Are you all right?
Uh, could we maybe
sit and chat over a beer?
I'm here for one day.
I mean, I'm here for the elections
and to pay off the debt
with the publishing house.
Just one beer, dude.
-One.
-Deal.
Wait for me out back. One minute.
-Yeah. Hurry, okay?
-I know. I know.
Yeah?
He's here with me.
You tell me when,
and we'll head over.
What's so urgent? What happened?
[laughs]
Just wanted to see you, man.
So we can celebrate
that I've been absolved,
that I have no pending charges.
I can't even believe it, Pablo.
What's that look for?
-Mancilla called in his favor, didn't he?
-No.
It's the first time
I've seen a politician act selflessly.
Well, cheers.
Cheers.
So are you happy
that this former black sheep
is now trotting freely?
Obviously, I am thrilled.
The problem is, I'm thinking
about the elections today.
The neighborhood residents
are all confused and worried,
and I wanna be with them.
Don't worry.
Mancilla will win.
Just wait for the reports. They're coming.
Let's hope to God.
And you?
You and Benjamín ever talk again?
[melancholy music playing]
No.
Well, he stopped by the foundation
and asked about you.
Why'd he come back from New York?
For him.
I spoke to Pablo and asked
where I could find him, but…
He played dumb. Didn't wanna say.
I'm sure Samuel told him not to tell me.
Ben, don't give up, son.
Says the expert.
You gave up on Alice immediately.
-[scoffs]
-[phone ringing]
Well, uh, Simón's waiting for us
at the publishing house. Let's go.
Come on. Let's go.
[Alejo] Sure. Quickly though.
[Alice] I don't know. I'm freaking out.
And you just made me realize
I won't have anyone in the delivery room,
writing down my contractions, like Dad.
Well, I'll be there.
-Thanks, Mom.
-Of course, my love.
The truth is, I would have loved it
if they were there with me.
So why didn't you say that?
I really don't know. At first,
I thought it was best to keep it a secret,
but I've changed my mind now, and no…
I want them both to know
who's the father of my kids.
-All right.
-They deserve it.
And I want it too. I need it. I need it.
I think your plan is perfect.
And if that doesn't work,
there's plan B or C.
-No.
-Right?
There is no plan B or plan C.
They're coming. I know it.
Benjamín will convince Alejo,
and Samuel will convince Pablo.
I'll be able to speak to both of them
because I need to tell them
at the same time.
I have to make the most
of their time in Bogotá.
[breathes deeply]
How's the photographer life treating ya?
[laughs] No, not "photographer."
It's actually "filmmaker."
Okay, sure.
You wouldn't believe it.
I've made progress.
-I speak English now.
-Wonderful.
That's wonderful,
and I'm proud of you for everything.
Brother, I'm off.
They're texting me from the Archdiocese.
Really? What for?
Well, listen to this.
The pope wants to meet me in Italy.
To meet me at the Vatican! He heard about
what I'm doing in the neighborhood
with all the people,
and I caught his interest.
Whoa, the pope himself summoned you?
That is really something, bro. I mean…
-I know, I know, I know.
-[laughs]
-I love you, bro.
-Yeah.
Hey, wait.
Maybe go to the Archdiocese another day.
You can come with me
to an event I'm taking pictures at.
-You need me to come?
-Alice's book launches this afternoon.
I heard something about that.
Why don't you come along?
And you can thank her for the money
she donated to the foundation.
No, I messaged her already.
I took care of that.
You know Alice was the one
who spoke to the archbishop?
Well, they didn't really speak,
but she did send them a portfolio
with a summary of all the work you've done
in the neighborhood with the foundation.
How did you find out?
The day she hired me for her book launch,
she mentioned it to me.
She said, "Please don't tell Pablo,"
but the thing is,
I do think you should know.
Especially because I think
you should go thank her in person.
[wistful music playing]
[chuckles]
Afternoon.
Hello there.
[laughs]
How have you been?
Really good.
For a second there,
I thought I wouldn't see you.
If I hadn't insisted on him coming,
he would've left without seeing you.
No. Not true.
I just have a really packed schedule,
and I don't know if I'm gonna
follow through with everything, but
I'm happy this worked out.
Mm-hmm. Same here.
What happened with New York?
You're going to New York?
You're not going?
Oh, it's just that my schedule
is very packed.
I don't know how
I'll follow through with everything.
-Okay.
-[both laugh]
The truth is, this book has generated
a great deal of anticipation.
We can already predict
that it's, um, a bestseller at this point.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah. It's wild.
Bookstores have almost sold out
of the first edition already.
-And today's the book launch.
-[Simón] That's right.
I have to head there in a bit.
I think you should come too.
Well, I think you owe me an explanation.
You told me you had an emergency.
I went to the hostel and nothing.
Then you told me to come
to the editorial house.
Now you tell me you think I should go
to Alice's book launch event today?
I don't know. I mean,
is there something you need to tell me?
Simón, go ahead.
I want you to go to Alice's book launch,
primarily so you can thank her.
[Alejo] What is this, Simón?
That is your freedom.
[melodic music playing]
With her royalties from her first book,
Alice took care of your entire debt
with the editorial.
Alejo,
you are debt-free.
[melodic music continues]
[Samuel] It hurts me
that you don't accept who I love.
Maybe someday, we'll hug each other again.
I love you so much, Pops.
[reporter on TV] Attention, Colombia,
we now have the first report
from the presidential elections.
I swear to God, if we miss her…
Laura, I am sure we are not late.
-[Laura] Oh! [laughs]
-[Carolina] There she is.
-Oh my God, you look amazing!
-[Susana] You almost missed it.
Hi!
-You little cutie!
-Hi!
Verónica!
-How are you?
-Great to see you here.
Hey, babe.
-Hey, Su.
-[Laura] Oh, I'm sorry we're late.
This new diva of Colombian television
had to finish filming her show.
-Yeah, I'm sorry.
-[all laugh]
[Carolina] Hey, girl, listen.
I brought you this for good luck
and so everything goes smoothly.
-[Alice] Thank you.
-I love you.
And Beltrán is winning by the way.
Shut it, Caro. My God.
-Sorry, I'm worried.
-[Alice] Hey, relax. Relax.
-I'm relaxed. Everything is fine.
-Enough.
Let's not make her even more nervous.
-Okay, let's go.
-[Laura] Yes.
Come on. You are gorgeous.
Now's not the time to think about Alejo,
or Pablo, or Beltrán, or anyone.
Don't tell me that. It doesn't matter.
Samuel told me he was with Pablo.
He'd let me know if he was coming,
but he's not answering my messages.
Okay, put that thing on
'cause you're gonna need it. Let me see.
-[Alice] Mm.
-Throws off your entire outfit but…
-Hey. How are we doing?
-[Alice] Simón!
Where's Alejo?
Uh, he stayed with Benjamín.
He's not here?
[tense music playing]
Try not to overthink it.
Just go inside. But whatever.
-I gotta work.
-Yeah. Go, go.
I'll see you in there.
[tense music continues]
[Simón] Today is a very special day.
Today, we are here
to present the first book
by an author who already promises
to become the next bestseller.
[cheering]
[Simón] But we are also here
to listen to a woman
who has taught us so much by example.
Let's give a round of applause
to Alice Fernández.
[cheering, clapping]
-Go girl!
-Woo-hoo!
-Thank you.
-[both laugh]
[cheering, clapping subside]
Thank you all!
Thank you so much.
It fills me with such joy
to see this room full of people,
to see you all here.
And above all,
to have my loved ones with me today.
Mom, thank you for coming such a long way.
-To my friends.
-[Laura] Yeah!
I love you!
They've put up with me
through so freaking much.
Thanks, girls. Thanks again.
Even my doctor is here.
I brought him just in case, you know?
[laughter]
I gotta keep him close
because you never know at this stage.
Anyway, I'd like to share that
this book rose out of
uh, of intense hurt.
The intense hurt of losing everything.
Everybody had an opinion about my life,
and I had to share my personal truth.
Even beyond all of the harsh looks,
beyond the "morality"
which many use to judge.
And despite the persistent criticism,
I was able to stand,
look forward,
and embrace this wonderful gift
that my choice left me with.
My two sons are
my greatest strength.
[emotional music playing]
[cheering, whistling]
A few months ago, I gave an interview
that caused so much commotion.
People started talking, and I received
countless messages on my socials.
So I decided to start writing.
Those who know me
know that I am a go-getter.
And, yes.
It's true.
I follow my desires, my impulses,
and I go for what I want.
But I can't deny that,
at times, I wondered,
"Has pursuing my needs and desires
made me overlook what matters
to those who support me and love me?"
And so, little by little,
a horrible guilt emerged.
The type that doesn't let us breathe.
Guilt that makes the good things
in our lives unenjoyable.
And us women are experts in guilt,
aren't we?
[audience laughs]
So true.
[Susana whistling]
Everything makes us feel guilty.
If we focus on ourselves
a little too much, we're selfish.
But if we do something
that society doesn't expect from us,
we're crazy.
And that's how we can end up
condemning ourselves.
We start to live
according to the desires of others,
not our own.
[rock music playing]
It may seem as though
the only option we have
to not feel that guilt
is to have no desires.
If we fully adapt to exactly
what society wants from us,
no one suffers.
Nobody has problems. Everyone is fine.
I decided…
to live guilt-free
and embrace absolutely everything
that makes me Alice head-on.
[cheering, clapping]
I've gotta tell you,
I love being able to say these words,
and I'm very nervous,
but I'm happy to share it.
To be able to speak freely, face-to-face,
with the two men who were the reason,
the impulse,
and the desire.
We had something unique.
Something special.
A deep love.
[cheering, clapping]
[music fades]
I have to give you
some important information.
I hope you enjoy this book
as much as I have,
and I wanna tell you an anecdote.
Turns out, the editorial…
-Oh, hang on.
-Let me…
[both laugh]
Thanks, Simón.
Let me choose between two book covers.
I think Simón was starting to become
impatient with me.
-[Simón] A little bit.
-I'm sure you're aware by now.
-I can't pick just one, so…
-[laughter]
You can choose whichever
you like the most.
-And I know…
-[yelps in pain]
[audience exclaims]
[lively rock music playing]
-Gastón, Gastón, Gastón.
-Sweetie, you have to calm down.
Right here. Right here.
I'm right here. Relax.
-Are you okay?
-Relax. You're okay.
Oh, wait. I can't breathe.
Sandra, hey.
Please get the OR ready for me.
I'm with Alice Fernández. Her water broke.
-See you soon.
-It's gonna be fine, girl.
[Alice screams] No, the diaper bag.
-The diaper bag. I need it.
-I'll get it. Just breathe.
Okay. Okay, yeah. Go, please.
Alice, just focus on breathing.
Listen, I'm gonna go get the car. Okay?
-Yeah, go!
-Can't breathe.
Wait, I… I need to speak
to Pablo and Alejo.
Now's not the time
to focus on Pablo or Alejo.
[Alice] I need to think about them.
I need to talk to them.
Where are they? Where are they? Samuel?
[Pablo] Alice, we gotta keep it…
-You all right?
-What happened?
Thanks. Thank you for coming.
It was so important that you hear me out.
I have gifts for you.
-The books!
-Hey, hey, hey!
-[Alice] Get the books!
-[Susana] Martín!
-Oh my God!
-Grab the books in the dressing room.
-Come on. Come on. Let's go.
-The books. The books.
[screams]
-Alice, you all right?
-What?
-What do we do?
-[Alejo] I don't know!
It's just a contraction.
Settle down. All right?
-Settle down.
-[Susana] Breathe.
How long has it been
since her last contraction?
-A few minutes?
-I can't remember.
Enough! God, so dramatic.
Oh, it's over.
-Great.
-It's over.
-Let's go.
-Done?
My love!
They sent me to get these books,
but I don't know if these were them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got 'em.
Go to the hospital,
and we can all talk there.
-Okay.
-Eva will also be joining.
-Which Eva? Why? What do you mean?
-[chuckles]
-What's Eva got to do--
-We'll talk later. Alice is coming.
-Gastón.
-I'm here. Breathe.
-Okay. The car's right here.
-Okay?
Go ahead. I'll get everything ready
for when you arrive.
-Alejo, you come with me.
-Wait. Don't leave me.
[clamoring]
-Wait! Alejo. Pablo.
-They'll make it, Alice. It's fine.
-Don't worry about it.
-Come on.
You have to breathe. Okay, relax.
-Susana? Susana. Susana.
-Yeah?
She went to get her bike 'cause she can't
leave it, but she's on her way.
-The most important thing is you.
-Okay.
So why don't you breathe
and try and relax, Alice?
Mm. Don't ask me to calm down.
Don't ask me to relax.
-That's fine, but--
-Two babies are leaving my body.
Okay. Everything will be fine.
Breathe. Breathe. Relax.
-I'm breathing.
-[clamoring]
-What the hell is all this?
-What is it?
What is that?
What? No!
Hey! Let us through, please!
-Let me through!
-Out of the way!
-I have a woman in labor here!
-Get out of the way! She's giving birth!
-She's giving birth!
-Guys, come on! Come on!
Are you f*cking serious? This guy's
still screwing with me when I'm in labor?
[Laura] No, wait. I got this.
-What are you gonna do?
-I'm getting us through somehow.
All right, come on, ladies.
Let me see some female solidarity.
We'll give Beltrán our vote, but, please.
I have a woman in labor.
Show some consideration.
-Please, move out of the way. Please.
-Alice Fernández?
I shouldn't support you
after what you did to Beltrán.
[clamoring continues]
[crowd chanting]
But the truth is that it was about time
one of us ladies
did what men have always done.
Everybody move out of the way.
Let's let them through.
Let them through.
Good luck.
[lively music playing]
[woman] Make way! Make way!
Beltrán for president!
Beltrán for president!
Beltrán for president!
Beltrán for…
[lively music continues]
-Afternoon.
-Afternoon.
-[woman] Hello.
-We're with Alice Fernandez.
She's being treated by Dr. Estrada.
-Yeah, she's in maternity.
-Yeah.
[woman] Will her husband be going in?
-Yes.
-Yeah.
Husband's last name?
-Uh, Valdés.
-Guevara.
-Well, the thing is, we're two.
-Right. Yeah.
Alejo.
Hi.
-How are you?
-I'm fine. You?
Fine.
-Uh…
-[Verónica] Pablo? [chuckles]
Um, I'm Alice's mother.
Oh, it's a pleasure.
-Uh, I'm gonna…
-Yup.
Okay.
-I have to fill out paperwork for Alice?
-You okay?
[woman] Yes.
Come here.
Uh…
Samuel.
I came back to Bogotá because I miss you.
[tender music playing]
At the time,
I don't know.
I left because I believed that was best.
But I shouldn't have left you on your own.
Please forgive me.
I f*cked up bad.
[Alice screams]
-Ow, ow, ow!
-Alice!
-It's okay. What do you need?
-Alice. All right. It's okay.
-Calm down.
-Alice? Are you okay?
-Yeah.
-[Alejo] Hey. Yeah?
-I'm fine. I'm more than fine.
-Good.
Listen, thank you. I heard about
what you did at the church. I'm grateful.
And thanks for the thing
with the editorial.
[Alice] No. No.
I don't want you to thank me for anything.
I'm just happy that you're here with me.
-Of course.
-Hello.
-I'm moving you to the delivery room.
-Now?
[nurse] Yes. Dr. Estrada
is on his way there already.
-Already?
-Let's get you on this chair. You ready?
-Already?
-Can we help you?
-[Pablo] Let's see.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
-Yeah.
Eva, I'm sure you're wondering
why I called you.
Lau, please.
We're, uh… we're about to become parents.
I don't think now's the best time.
Well, it might not
be the best time for it,
but the place could work for us.
[Martín] No, that's exactly it.
If we don't know
if it's the right time or place,
then it's best to leave it at that
and not say anything. Am I right?
That's the point. I don't think it will
ever… ever be the right time for you,
and I've waited a long time, Martín.
Listen, this whole situation with Alice
has really got me thinking
about everything.
The last thing I want
is to repeat a story similar to hers.
Which is why I told you that I want us
to speak openly and truthfully.
Eva, you're in a relationship
with Martín, right?
-I am. Yes.
-I am too.
And since we're already in this game,
in this trio,
I was wondering if we could
maybe consider an open relationship.
What are you talking about?
I… I don't know.
I mean, I don't… I don't know
how it could work.
I don't understand what the dynamics are,
but maybe the three of us
could give it a shot.
It's not that complicated. I mean,
I've always wanted a child with Martín.
You wanna be with Eva and with me too.
And I want to be with you, Martín.
So, why not
try to be a family?
A really weird one, but…
but a family.
[Martín sighs]
So… uh, mull it over
because I know what I want.
[man over PA] All volunteers,
please report to room 304.
Don't hate me. Okay? Please, love.
No, no.
I do hate you,
and I'm this close… this close
to telling you to f*ck off.
But you know why I won't do it?
Because to do
what that woman has just done
takes some real f*cking courage.
And
it might not be a terrible idea
to get to know your wife, you know?
[intriguing music playing]
[Pablo] You nervous?
-Why wouldn't I be?
-Yeah.
I'm glad you came from New York
because doing this alone…
-…would've sucked.
-I'm glad you're not giving mass now.
-Come on.
-Wait.
Uh, best to start with the right foot.
[Pablo] What do you mean?
I'm not superstitious.
[Alejo] Well, I'm not religious,
but I'm sh1tting myself.
-We should do a blessing, right?
-Yeah.
-In the name of the Father, the Son…
-Right side.
-Whatever. Same thing.
-Okay.
[Pablo] Well, excuse me.
All right.
How are you feeling?
Well, first of all,
everything is absolutely fine, okay?
Did you want to do a natural birth?
-Yeah.
-[Gastón] You sure?
-Yeah.
-Well done, Alice.
As for you gents,
stand by in case we need you.
Um, for what?
[emotional pop music playing]
[Alice breathing heavily]
-[Alejo] Sh.
-[Alice grunts]
[Alice screaming]
[baby crying]
[emotional pop music continues]
I really missed you so much.
So much.
I missed you too.
I won't deny that it hurt
a lot when you left.
But… I think it was good for us
to step away and distance ourselves.
No.
No, because I lost you, Samuel.
You think so?
[emotional pop music continues]
'Cause I don't.
[Susana] Mm, just a little harder.
Oh, a little harder. A little harder.
Hello.
-Oh! Eliseo!
-[Eliseo chuckles]
-How are you? Um…
-Pleased to meet you. I'm Alice's mother.
Pleased to meet you. Ah, you know my son.
-[Eliseo] How are you doing?
-Oh! Are they here?
-How is Alice?
-Don't worry. Everything's fine.
Alice had two healthy boys.
One's blond, the other's brunette.
Both are gorgeous.
Their weight is optimal,
and we'll keep them incubated.
Alice is doing awesome.
-Thank you so much.
-[all exclaim]
-[nurse] Excuse me.
-[Susana] Yay!
This is so exciting!
Wow! I can't believe it.
Well, looks like our family got bigger.
[laughs]
[emotional music playing]
Two.
[laughing]
[Alice] And when can I see my babies?
[Alejo] Now.
They're bringing them in right now.
Yeah. Don't… don't worry. They're fine.
They're really cute.
Yeah, they're very beautiful.
They both look so much like you.
I feel so incredibly at ease
having you here with me.
Imagine if you hadn't
have made it there today.
We couldn't miss the launch.
Yeah, it's true. I'm… I'm sorry,
but why'd you want us
to be at your book launch?
[melodic acoustic guitar music playing]
You'll find your answer
inside these books.
Wait a minute.
There's an envelope inside
that'll explain it all.
We are a part of the global 1%
of cases of heteropaternity.
-Let me explain.
-Hmm?
I gave birth to
babies with different fathers.
I promised that my sons would always know
who their father was.
And, well…
The truth is obvious.
Those are the results.
I wanted to tell you sooner,
but you both had your own plans.
And I didn't want this to deter you
from doing anything.
You, Pablo.
If you'd known, you probably
wouldn't have had the confidence
to follow your religion
or to work at the foundation
and do everything you do.
And you, Alejo. You most likely
wouldn't have returned to New York.
To pursue your dream
of being a cultural attaché.
I kept this a secret
all of these months and…
They're here now. Our family's here.
You had to know.
You wanna open it?
Um…
We don't need to.
[upbeat feel-good music playing]
Dreams do come true.
[sighs]
[chuckles]
ONE YEAR LATER…
[Alice] Alejo and Pablo knowing
who the father of each of my children was
didn't change a thing.
Blood doesn't determine
what is driven by love.
Every other weekend,
the twins get a visit from Father Pablo
and Ambassador Valdés.
I take responsibility
for the decision I made.
To walk my own path together
with my two sons
and their two fathers.
-I lost Alejo and Pablo as husbands…
-What are you doing, huh?
…but my sons have gained
two fathers instead of just one.
I can't see. Oh!
-I still miss them. Both of them.
-He's trouble, isn't he? You're trouble.
Especially on rainy Sundays
or sunny Saturdays.
But still,
I feel happy to have had the courage
to take the risk of loving them both.
And when all is said and done,
when I see how things turned out…
Whoa!
…I think I did quite well.
