FORBIDDEN WOMAN

I'm glad you support me.

Yes. And you don't buy just any piece
of news published in… Horacio!

Please.

You know you have my direct line number.

Of course I will. Say hi for me.

[mouthing]

Count on that, sure. [laughs]

My pleasure. It's my personal number.

Okay, then.

I'm sorry about the article.

[tense music]

I told you.

First, they come for me.

Then, for you.

It's a conspiracy,
and it comes right from the opposition.

It's possible.

We can't allow these sharks
to do as they like.

You're right.

We should legislate the press

to institute journalism
that is both respectable

and responsible. Let's join forces.

I'll be standing by.

Sounds good.

Great, okay.

[tense music continues]

[music fades]

Betty wanting to leave
makes me very upset.

It makes me really sad.

But it also makes me angry.
At times, it makes me more angry than sad.

It upsets me a lot, too.

And we can find a replacement for her.

I looked into it and found good
candidates, but I don't want to do it.

Betty is actually committed.

She's talented, and her voice is good
enough to make her a soloist.

I know, and that's what she's wanted
for a while now.

[somber music]

Did you know?

-What?
-She wanted to leave to be her own boss.

Well, I mean, she… [mumbles]

[imitates mumbling]
Why didn't you tell me, Jair?

Well, it's not my place.

-She had to tell you.
-No, sir.

If you tell me,
I can have time to do something about it.

Where is your damn loyalty, Jair?

What about my loyalty to her?
To her confiding in me?

-I didn't know if she would regret…
-Regret it? Come on, she left already.

-[phone rings]
-And now, the icing on the cake.

Hi, where are you?

My dear mother.

Are you coming?

I'll go visit the woman I told you about
at the hospital,

and then I'll be on my way.

Come on, Víctor, that's shameless.

You stood up everyone at the rehearsal.

Just so you know, Mom,

you're on speaker
and Karen can hear you, okay?

Oh! Karen, dear, hi! How's it going?

How are you, Amalia?

Fine! Listen,
I love what you do with the foundation.

Count on me, huh?

We just need to set specific hours,
because

Víctor has to show up here
to work and honor his commitments.

Right, my man?

I know.

Well, he's the one
who doesn't seem to know.

Did you talk to Betty? That girl
hasn't shown up here all day.

-[exhales]
-And did you go to the bar?

You're playing there tonight
and haven't seen the place.

I know you always do fine,
but work with me. [scoffs]

We can talk later, okay, Mom?

Thanks for making me look so good
with Karen.

Okay, kisses. Take care.

Drive safely. [kisses]

Ciao.

[sighs] Sorry about that.

My mom and my manager, huh?

[Fernán] Are you threatening me?

[Daniel] I'm frankly tired of you.
I have endured enough.

-Should I be afraid?
-Yes.

Be afraid. And this time, very afraid.

-That's why I called you here, Officer.
-I'm glad you did.

You see, my son is a resentful,

ambitious, and depressive person.

He can go off at any moment.

And I wouldn't be surprised
if he showed up here wanting to k*ll me.

Well, I suggest you tighten up security
at the ranch

and request a restraining order.

Well, didn't I tell you?

Daniel wants to k*ll me.

[tense music]

I'll go get lunch.

Alexander, I need to know
where the construction

of this highway came from,
as it wasn't in the original plan.

What do you want me to say?

Politics are a creative discipline.

The thing is, building this highway

would involve the pointless purchase
of plots of land.

Besides, it'd be in an area

that wouldn't benefit
the local population.

It would only benefit one person,
and that's Fernán Caballero.

[tense music]

[clicks tongue]

-You know what I think?
-Hmm?

That Fernán asked you to build
the highway and you refused.

So he published that damning article
about you.

What do you want me to say?

Politics are dynamic.

Does it put you out?

It depends on how far
you are willing to go.

As far as the presidency,
like I've said before.

However,

I don't need to clarify to someone

as intelligent as you are

that it doesn't mean
I will be building

the highway with a Jacuzzi
Fernán wants.

Then what?

I need his money for the campaign.

And I'll make him believe
he has me under his thumb.

[intriguing music]

[Alexander clears throat]

Sacrifices in politics are great.

But rewards are even greater.

So, decide which side you want to be on.

But most importantly…

which side offers you more.

[dramatic music]

I mean, I love my mom with all my heart.

After you.

But I just feel like
she has to dial it down a bit,

because she's too intense. [laughs]

Oh, no. Sergio will say that about me
one of these days.

About you?

No, how can you say that?

You don't know my mom.

For kids, their moms are always
the most intense people.

No.

My mom is the crown jewel.
She's intensity in the flesh, really.

-Sorry…
-[man] Víctor!

Hi. Sorry for butting in,
but would you take a photo with me?

-Yes, of course.
-I'll get going.

Okay, yes.
But there's better light over there.

-Good morning.
-Good day, how are you?

Karen Arbeláez,
from the Autonomous Women foundation,

to see Patricia Arenas.

Oh, Mrs. Patricia. Sure.

She is…

-[nurse] Hey! Don't hurt her, sir!
-Are you the b*tch who fills

my wife's head with nonsense?

[dramatic music]

Hey!

[grunts]

You feel like a macho man hitting a woman?
Let's see if you can fight a man.

Stand up! You want to keep hitting women?
Let's see if you can.

Get him!

Are you okay?

Are you okay? Did he hurt you?

-No?
-I'm fine. How are you?

I'm also fine. All good.

Iván.

Of course he knew what I inherited
from my mom in the US,

and has managed it from here.

Did you talk to him?

He won't renegotiate.

Legally, there's nothing I can do.

Since nothing can be done,
it's not worth feeling bitter about it.

Better to just think of the money you got,
which may help you

start a business or something else.

Oh, no.

I won't leave things like this.

I'll make him pay dearly.

-What will you do?
-The less you know the better.

Dani, don't make decisions
in the heat of the moment, bro.

Relax so you don't do anything
you end up regretting.

All I can say is it's not me
who will end up with regrets.

Mark my words. Talk to you later.

[unsettling music]

This guy leads an average life,
at least based on what's out there,

because he's very private.

Víctor Rodríguez, son of Amalia Rodríguez
and a completely absent father.

Is there anything on him?

He's never mentioned.

He had a very… humble childhood.

Amalia, his mom, used to sell bracelets,
lottery tickets, perfume, you name it.

What do you know?

Four years ago,
the mom had a mariachi boyfriend,

with whom Víctor sang in public
for the first time.

He won a regional competition and kicked
off his career recording for two labels,

but in the end, it was the mom who became
his manager of sorts.

Uh-huh.

Weak spots?

I found some articles that suggest
Víctor had problems with alcohol,

but nothing that's confirmed.

Is he married? Any children?

No, but here comes the best part.

Lidia told me that in addition to holding
the concert, he'd become the image,

the face of the foundation.

Which means…

He'll help them by getting them publicity
so they can get more sponsors.

But Karen is already going
a bit crazy, Fernán.

How come?

She's starting to have occasional
wet dreams about the singer.

A moment of weakness
can make any dream come true.

Precisely.

[Iván] Jimmy!

Well, duty calls.

-Talk to you later.
-Jimmy!

Coming!

Yes, Iván?

I just sent you some links
to renewable energy projects currently

-active in Colombia.
-I'll take a look right away.

Interview people you find interesting.

And place particular emphasis
on Kitty's project.

-Will do.
-Something else.

-Something else, Iván?
-Something else, Jimmy.

Explain in detail
what the project's about.

She needs investors for it to work.

Do it fast, please,
because this should be published ASAP.

Okay.

[tense music]

Hi, Kitty.

I need to talk to you. Are you available?

Wherever you want.

Are you okay?

Yes.

You know what gets me?

Just to picture
the possibility of that guy

having done to you
what he does to Patricia…

makes my blood boil.

I understand.

Well, how long do you think
he'll be in jail

-for what he did today?
-Not long at all.

They simply reprimand him, that's it.

What do you mean?

You're joking, right?

Lesions were minor.

And it's the first time
someone has reported him.

I can't believe this.

So, basically, what we did here
was completely useless.

At least there's a precedent now.

That's why it's so important
for Patricia to report him.

The blows Diego gave her
are so serious that he can end up in jail.

-Good afternoon.
-Hello.

You two are here again?

That's right, ma'am.

Welcome.

[Víctor exhales]

[clears throat] Gisela.

[suspenseful music]

Well, you can't complain, huh?

I even had a TV installed.

The bathroom?

It's in the hallway.

You have to share it.

This is a tiny closet. It won't be enough.

I will need a closet
where I can hang clothes.

And a full-body mirror.

[grumbles]

You're asking for quite a bit, huh?

If I'm leaving my own business
to work with you…

this is the minimum.

-What else do you need?
-I don't share the bathroom.

I'll set that up.

What else?

For now… I'm good.

For now.

[intriguing music]

[phone rings]

The partner reacting?

It seems that way.

Won't you answer?

No.

Tell me, Mr. Fernán.

Is this it?

The welcome is

alcohol-free?

[intriguing music continues]

I thought you'd never ask.

[Karen] Well, I'm off to the foundation.

Do you want to grab a bite?

You have to work.

-Hmm.
-Didn't you hear what your mom said?

Regardless, I have to eat.

Besides, look how late it is.
You must be starving, and,

since we're already here,

why not?

Let's go.

["Venga a Esta Mesa" plays]

I'm sure you'll love the food here.

Hey, man, how are you?

-Hello. Thanks.
-Come in.

-How are things?
-Fine, how are you?

Super, dude. Excellent.

-Come in, please.
-Thanks.

This way, please.

-Sandra, dear, how are you?
-How are you, Víctor?

-Your table awaits.
-Thanks.

-Nice to see you.
-Compadre.

Hey, this is Karen.

-Nice to meet you.
-It's an honor. Pacho.

-Thanks.
-My pleasure. Please.

-Excellent, many thanks.
-Sandra.

I don't know if you like picadas,
but they have the best ones here.

-Sandra.
-Here,

-this is the menu.
-Is there blood pudding?

Yes, and it's delicious.
One of the best.

-And chorizo sausage?
-Yes, that too.

-Is it spicy?
-We make it spicy.

Super. And crunchy.

-Sure, okay.
-Or could you bring a picada

-with a bit of everything?
-Yes, the mega-supreme picada.

Sounds good?

-The mega-supreme.
-One of those.

-That one's hot.
-Yes.

-We can share one.
-Okay. Excuse me.

-Great.
-I'll bring the order soon.

-Thanks.
-Thank you so much, Sandra.

Blood pudding?

What do you think?

I only eat lobster and caviar?

Maybe not only that. You can also eat…
foie gras.

Well, something more gourmet.
Your diet must be more gourmet.

Not really.

[phone chimes]

Just a second.

No worries.

-Patricia will be discharged tomorrow.
-Really?

That's good news, right?

She may go back to Diego.

That'd be unthinkable after what happened.

Diego is manipulative, Víctor.

He has power over her.

Well, but… I'm sure she will realize.

You would think so.
But it's not that easy.

A manipulative man systematically
destroys his victim's self-esteem.

Until he makes the victim feel
they're worthless without him.

How can he do that?

A manipulative man beats her,
and then he's sweet to her.

Behaves like the person
she fell in love with.

That's why she stays,
she thinks he'll be who he used to be.

I can't believe it.

A few happy days go by…

and then he beats her up again.

When he realizes she's fed up,
he goes back to acting really sweet.

It's a never-ending vicious cycle.

A vicious cycle alright,
and they both seem to be sick.

Yes.

And the saddest part is… the manipulative
man doesn't want to get help.

And, it's not manipulative men only.

There's also manipulative women.

[Sandra] Okay, excuse me.

Your order's here.

Thanks.

-Wow, it looks delish.
-This is pretty big.

-Looks amazing.
-Bon appétit.

-Thanks.
-Many thanks, Sandra.

Okay.

[Víctor] Okay.

-Let's see.
-Sandra?

-Sandra, yes.
-Sandra!

-One beer, please.
-Coming up.

-And water for me.
-Right away.

-Thanks.
-Ice-cold.

-Okay.
-Thanks.

Dig in, please.

-Get started.
-Oh.

Where do we start?

ALEXANDER ORDUZ FOR PRESIDENT

Are you with me or against me?

I need an answer.
Will you be my campaign advisor?

Yes or no?

Only if you're willing to go all the way.

I don't like to repeat myself.

I already told you.

Whatever it takes to get it?

Where are the cameras?
Are you recording me?

-I have something better.
-[suspenseful music]

Where did you get it?

I also have my sources.

[music intensifies]

[music fades]

Daniel must be devastated.

I don't get why your dad
does that to him.

Thanks.

It's not like Dani has been
the best son either.

Don't be fooled.

I know you don't get along because
of what happened with Daniel's mom.

Elvira was a depressive, bipolar woman.

She was a handful.

My dad had a hard time
when he was married to her.

But he cheated on her, right?

That's how Gerardo was born.

Wasn't that what made her k*ll herself?

Can you imagine?

She k*lled herself because she found out
her husband had a son

out of wedlock.

She was very unstable.

But your dad was also very mean
to your mom, right?

[tense music]

I mean, according to everything
Daniel told me.

What he's told you is biased
due to the rage

and hate he feels for my dad.

That's why I'm worried about him.

I'm afraid his mom may have passed
her condition to him.

Why do you say that?

Because he's paranoid, obsessed with
getting revenge on my dad. You've noticed?

Well, after everything
your dad's done to him…

-You know what? I get it.
-Kitty…

Daniel is not okay.

[intriguing music]

You want me to talk to him?

No.

I doubt that'll help.

I want you to take care of yourself.

I feel like anyone who's near him
right now is in danger.

[tense music]

[phone rings]

Excuse me, please.

Hello?

Is this Iván Caballero?

Uh, yes, speaking.

This is Débora Lozano,
advisor to Mr. Alexander Orduz's campaign.

What is it?

Well, the candidate wants an interview
with you.

Can you do it?

[suspenseful music]

[Víctor] Oh, God, that was delicious.

What's with the chicharrón?

[Karen] You ate most of it,
but didn't want much.

[Víctor laughs]

[Karen] Hey, I really appreciate it.

It's been a while since I had
such a great meal.

For me, too.
But I honestly need an antacid.

Jeez.

Listen.

I talked to Kitty.

And I think we clarified things.

Yes, she told me.

That conversation helped her.

Not only her, it also helped me a lot.

It was Patricia who I couldn't talk to.

You'll do it tomorrow.

What was it you did to Diego
at the hospital? I didn't quite get it.

With your fingers. How did it go? [laughs]

It's an Asian technique
I learned a while ago.

Frankly, I didn't think I would ever
have to use it in real life.

Where did you learn it?

One of the many things I owe my mom for.

[emotional music]

She got me into self-defense classes
so I'd never let anyone hurt me.

She inspired the foundation.

So, was the foundation her idea?

When the Autonomous Women
foundation started,

my mom had been dead for a while.

Well, then…?

She was a battered woman.

[emotional music continues]

Well, thank you.

Have a nice day.

You too.

[music ends]

Once again, Víctor Rodríguez
came to Karen Arbeláez's rescue,

just like a few days ago at the airport,
which you may remember.

Turns out Víctor posted a video
on his social media the previous night

where he invites his fans
to a charity event

for the foundation led
by Karen Arbeláez herself.

I recently had the chance to see
the work of an incredible woman

named Karen Arbeláez.

Along with her foundation,
they guide and assist

women who are in this situation.

What a tremendous display
of generosity, huh?

The closeness between Víctor and
the amazing Karen is making tongues wag.

There's already speculation

about them having something else.

[tense music]

[Alexander clears throat]

Changed your office?

Is this information real?

[laughs] You guys really are…
a plague, right?

Confirmed, of course. How disrespectful.

Why give it to me?

I'm giving you a real scoop.

"A real scoop"?
Which would benefit you if published.

What about you?

More traffic to your digital newspaper.

It's all about likes now.

Carlos.

[tense music continues]

[music fades]

[reporter] There's already speculation
about them having

something else.

I can't believe it.

And what they'll make up
as soon as they realize

Víctor's starting to promote
the foundation.

It will bring about misunderstandings
with Alexander.

I don't know how much
this can affect his campaign.

Okay, listen. If you want,

we can delay it
for a couple of weeks.

Actually, for a month, if you'd like.

Yes, Karen, I agree.

We can wait as long as you want,
no rush. We're here to support you.

Because of malicious gossip?

It's just not fair, Lidia.

We need the support now,
not in a few months.

Listen, whatever you decide…
is fine with us.

Our women come before anything else.

And if Víctor can help us
get funds for them,

the press and the media
can say what they want.

They can besmirch my name. I don't care.

What about Alexander?

He'll have to understand. It's gossip.

Suspicions went public, right?

Some things are beyond my control, Fernán.

Don't worry, my man. That's good for us.

You'll be in charge of finding proof
that the infidelity is real.

Nothing has happened
between Karen and Víctor yet.

But it will.

O ye of little faith.

The doubt alone suffices
for you to become

Alexander Orduz's main aide.

I don't get it.

Listen, my dear Jimmy.

Approach him.

Talk to him.

Tell him everything you've told me.

Show him what you investigated
about Karen and Víctor.

Also, tell him about his dear wife's
forbidden dreams.

And then you offer your services
to work with him.

What for?

What do you mean, "What for?"

To make him believe
you're watching his back, huh?

Make him feel confident
that if she cheats on him,

he'll be the first one to know.

Perfect.

Though I'll be the first one to know,
obviously.

Okay.

[suspenseful music]

[exhales] Jeez.

[music fades]

[Daniel] Good day.

Good afternoon, can I help you?

-I want a room, please.
-Yes, sure.

For how long?

Undetermined.

-Do you have an ID?
-Yes, of course.

Daniel Caballero.

[tense music]

Are you one of Fernán's sons?

Yes.

[tense music continues]

[music fades]

Where did you get that information
you sent?

Alexander gave it to me.

I don't know where he got it.
It was a well-kept secret.

What do you know,

the politician is better than you
at journalism.

If we publish that,

I doubt Horacio Carrera has any chance

to become the presidential candidate.
You tell me.

Let's do it, yes.

I have Alexander under control.

If he defies me again,
I know how to rein him in.

Are you sure?

Yes, I am.

It's time to make his aspirations
come true.

Okay, goodbye.

["Más de lo que Debería"
plays on cell phone]

♪ But I promise this mouth ♪

♪ Will not be calling your name ♪

♪ Ever again ♪

[song stops]

So, tell me.

You wrote the lyrics?

Yes, and the music, too.

Why? Didn't you like it?

Betty…

It's amazing.

What?

It's beautiful.

-[exhales] I almost had a heart attack.
-It's really good.

Those are two more reasons
for you to stay.

[uplifting music]

But I told your mom…

You didn't want to be a backup singer
all your life, and… that's fine.

I support you.

But look around you.

Here, you can advance your career
as a soloist very easily.

At this production company?

Of course.

Betty, we're on the same team here.

And we're here to grow together,
and it'd be amazing to watch you grow.

I really appreciate it, Víctor,
but I'll pass.

[uplifting music ends]

Why?

Because I still have feelings for you,
and you know it.

But that can be settled.

-How?
-Think about it.

If you get your project going,

technically, we wouldn't be
working together.

I mean, we would,
but on different projects.

And we wouldn't have to see each other
for rehearsals and stuff.

And we can have
different work spaces allocated

at different times. Look, it's okay.
We'd find a way around it.

Plus, you won't find
another manager like my mom.

I know, but it's not
like she's the only one either.

She's not the only one,
but she's very good.

Here's the deal.

I don't want you to end up
with a manager

who will exploit you
or make you sign a contract

that you'll be tied to for good.
Or that…

you must do things you don't want to do,
or change your style.

What I went through initially.

Think of something else, think of money.

Normally, production companies
tend to keep a high percentage,

and they pay a pittance to artists.
It's not fair.

You won't have to go through that here.

I know.

Well, then?

Don't jeopardize your career.
Much less, for me.

Just a minute, Víctor.

I'm not stupid.

I won't jeopardize my career
for you or anyone else.

But what can I do if…
it hurts to see you?

Give it time.

-Yes.
-And you know what will happen?

Betty, you'll be a huge success.
I can see it.

You'll be a huge success. You'll do great.

And you'll have tons of guys
at your feet.

-I don't want any guy.
-It will happen.

And you'll have to turn down
many opportunistic guys.

But there will be one.

One who will be a hell of a guy.

Who will be the man you deserve.

Betty…

think about it.

Please.

If you decide to stay,

the one thing I'll ask from you is…
to complete what we already started.

To continue with the tour,
with the new album's launch,

and when that's done,
we'll focus 100% on your career.

I promise.

I'll think about it.

[Fernán] Gerardo!

Do me a favor.

Gather everyone at the kiosk
so I can introduce Gisela to them.

But Gisela's not here.

Where is she?

That, I don't know, sir.

But…

[tense music]

-Let me go!
-You're not going anywhere, Gisela.

Let go, I said!

-What's wrong? Will you hit me?
-I'm serious.

-Bring it on.
-I'll do it if I have to.

I'm done with you, don't you get it?

-You're not going anywhere…
-Hey!

Leave her alone.

Don't butt in. It's none of your business.

Now I'm making it my business.

I feel like kicking someone's a*s.

-Will it be you? Come on.
-No.

-Álvaro.
-What will you do?

Don't end up at the police station again.

Will you go with that geezer?

That's my problem.

[tense music]

When you get him into bed
and he has a heart attack,

don't come crying,
because I won't be here anymore.

[dramatic musical stinger]

Good luck.

[Álvaro screams]

All good?

Thank you.

Want a drink?

It wouldn't hurt.

I need one.

Oh, me too.

[Gisela chuckles]

Want to tell me what happened?

It's decided.

I'll proceed with the concert and other
promotions Víctor will be carrying out.

-Did you talk to Víctor and Alexander?
-I'm not sure they know.

But I don't want to make a big deal
out of this.

But don't play down
the implications either.

An infidelity…

or at least a suspicion of infidelity
can bring any marriage to an end.

If a suspicion brings my marriage
with Alexander to an end,

it would mean
it had been over for a while.

I don't know about that.

Our mind can play tricks on us
and become our worst enemy.

Look at what's happening to me.

What's happening to you?

[tense music]

What?

What's happening to you?

Doris cheated on me.

What?

When?

Before your birthday party.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because it's not like I'm dying
to talk about it.

-But is it true?
-Of course. She told me herself.

And what will you do?

I don't know. Right now,
I don't have the slightest idea.

Will you split up?

Is Doris in love?

Well, she's not in love,
but she had sex with another guy.

Well, then it's not that serious.

What do you mean, Kitty?

Well, those things do happen.

They shouldn't happen,
but they do happen.

Doris cheating on you
doesn't mean she doesn't love you.

Oh, so now I'm the one to blame, or what?

Of course not.

But if you're building something
with someone,

you could overcome those things.

That's what I've been telling him.

Just like you and Alexander.

He can't let gossip
poison his relationship.

Especially because it's a lie.

Right?

[tense music]

[music fades]

[man on loudspeaker] Monitors, check.

Oh, so you can't even breathe
without it being posted on social media?

-What a drag.
-People are gossipy like that.

-How did you like it, dude?
-It's good.

-I'll start on it.
-Okay.

Look at it. If you'd like to add anything,

-let me know.
-Will do.

Okay, then.

Hey, we can't deny you've been spending
a lot of time with that woman

since you first saved her life, right?

But that's something that has happened
organically, bro.

It's not like we planned it.

-It just happened.
-[laughs] Very organically?

I don't think the concert was something
you spontaneously came up with.

Just admit it.
You're falling for that woman.

-Huh?
-I'm not going to lie to you.

I'm captivated, fascinated by her.
I admire her.

I don't think I've met
anyone like her before.

But to go to extremes and say

-something will happen, no way.
-That's better.

-"Better"? Well, yes.
-[Jair laughs]

-Nothing will happen.
-[Betty] Hi, sorry for being late.

-Betty!
-[Betty] Ooh!

If you came, that means
you made a decision, right?

Let's see.

Is your offer regarding my career serious?

Of course it's serious. Why would I lie?

-Well, then I'm staying.
-Yes!

Hold up. On one condition, okay?

What condition?

Forget about how I feel about you.

I'll also try to forget.

It can't affect our friendship.
Much less, our work.

Listen, so…

how do you feel about me?

I'll go change. Ciao.

Hey, the same applies to you.

Forget about what I just said about Karen.

Though I may like her very much,
that's it.

Nothing will happen.

Karen? What Karen? You're nuts.
I don't know any Karens. What's your deal?

-I'm nuts, exactly.
-Betty!

I went mad.

-How is the song going?
-Pretty well.

How did it go?

♪ You should have let me be ♪

Oh, oh, oh!

♪ Right where I was ♪

Tell me what your family is up to.

-My parents are in Tunja.
-Uh-huh.

A brother in Villavicencio,
a sister in Bogotá.

So, around.

I guess you get together
for special occasions.

Christmas, New Year's, birthdays…

Very rarely.

Why?

Because I'm the black sheep
of the family.

I love that. Cheers.

-Cheers.
-[Daniel laughs]

[Daniel] Hmm.

Are you serious?

I am.

Catholic, apostolic, and Roman.

Those who think women should get married,

have kids, and look after their home.

Those who are boring.

But you told me you wanted to have kids.

And I do.

I do. But you know what?

I don't want the typical woman

who stays home looking after the kids,

or doing housework.

I don't want that.

What, then?

I want a life companion…

[intriguing music]

…with whom I can travel,

do crazy things…

have good times.

I like that.

Me, too.

-Cheers to that.
-Cheers to that.

What are you looking for in a man?

Everything you just mentioned.

So, you haven't found it?

I found one…

who lifted me to heaven…

and at the same time,
dropped me into hell.

I want to hear that story now.

Please, share it with me.

[dramatic musical stinger]

I think this story is to be continued.

They're here for me.

Daniel.

Why are you here?

[tense music]

You said you wouldn't be back.

I'm not.

Well, so?

I have a suggestion.

Let's meet again.

You tell me your story,
I'll tell you mine.

Are you sure?

Very.

[tense music continues]

Cheers.

Cheers.

Thanks for everything.

Thank you.

Come on, Gerardo.
