FORBIDDEN WOMAN

[Fernán] María,
take this breakfast to Daniel's room.

-I don't want to see him here.
-Mr. Daniel's not here.

He didn't sleep here.

Oh. Could it be my miracle just came true?

Not a miracle
since his stuff's still there.

I think I know where he is.

Hmm.

I told you I'd get intel
on your son so he wouldn't

-catch you off guard.
-Mm-hmm.

Want in on the buzz?

Do you know who Kitty is?

Kitty?

My daughter's sister-in-law.

And she dated Daniel a long time ago.

Well, she came to town yesterday
and their relationship is going well.

You don't say. What's that about?

Don't tell me Daniel will bring her here.

Hmm, I doubt it.

She has a renewable energy project.

Oh, right.

Daniel studies that.

Well, it seems like she wants to kick off
the project and is looking for a place.

And someone in town is offering her
some land.

[dramatic musical stinger]

Who is it?

How much is the infrastructure worth?

Well… this is an initial quote.

[intriguing music]

[scoffs]

No, this is… too expensive.

There's no way I can afford it.

Mr. Eduardo, I know
it may seem very expensive, but…

keep in mind you'll never have
to pay for water or energy bills again

after the installation is done.

I understand that,

but I simply don't have that kind of money
to invest right now.

Take into account ecological implications
too, Mr. Eduardo.

We're running out of fossil fuel energy.

And its production devastates the planet.

A ranch that generates clean energy,
that doesn't pollute,

is the best legacy
you can pass down to your children.

It was precisely them
who told me about this project.

But I need to be practical.

And what's best for me,
at the moment, is to sell.

Yes, and believe me, we understand.

But you say problems with energy and water
affect the whole region.

Right, all ranches have the same problem.

Then, what we need to do is talk
to the owners of the other ranches

so it's less costly for everyone.

The owners of the other ranches
are in the same predicament as me.

Although I'm sure they'll be interested,
what they want to do is to sell.

Leave that to me.

No.

Who's going to put up
with this lady now? Hmm?

She already acts like the owner,

and now that they're having sex,
it'll be worse.

That woman knows when to take the reins
and when to sit back.

He'll move my bed
to the pigpen, you'll see.

No. Don't push her,
but don't let her push you around, either.

Isn't that what you taught me all my life?

To be quiet, look the other way.

No.

It's one thing not to cause any trouble.

But it's another thing entirely
to suck up to her.

It's not the same
because he's the owner and he's your dad.

But when it comes to her? No way.

[tense music]

[Fernán] María.

Fetch those dishes for me, please.

How is buying that land coming along?

Fifty-fifty.

What did Eduardo say?

He was very interested
in selling at first,

but since the last time we spoke with him,
it seems… he's backing out.

How come?

Why?

It seems he got a better offer to stay.

He doesn't know I'm the one buying, right?

No, sir.

No one knows.

It all goes through that lawyer
you appointed.

Why do you ask?

There goes Daniel
f*cking everything up again.

[tense music continues]

You know what?

Come with me.

[exhales]

[music fades]

[Karen] How are you?

[Doris] Truth is…

yesterday…

was crushing.

But today I'm fired up.

Why is that?

Because I know it was wrong
for me to sleep with that man.

[somber music]

But we all make mistakes.

And it seems unfair
that as a society we excuse

certain people, or certain mistakes,

all the while infidelity is seen
as a mortal sin.

Also, cases vary greatly.

Now, I'm not saying

that it's Esteban's fault.

Want me to talk to him some more?

No.

No.

He has been so dreadful.

Don't rush into anything, Doris.

Being married, to be with one another
means to rely on each other,

as a commitment to find true happiness.

It's not just for when things are okay,
then once they're not

and a mistake is made,
your first instinct is to leave. No way.

You're right.

Listen.

Yesterday… I had made up my mind…

about moving forward with this.

But not anymore.

I think it's time to sign those
divorce papers

and start a new chapter of my life.

Whatever decision you make,

know that you have my support.

Thanks.

[cell phone rings]

Speak of the devil.

Don't tell him you're here, please.

Hello.

Hey. When will you be here?

I won't be long.

Víctor is on his way
to sh**t the promos for the show.

[emotional music]

You don't need me for that.

Karen, you haven't appeared in a single
promo video for the foundation.

You're the director.

You must make an appearance.

[Víctor] I composed a new theme.

[Amalia] Ah, I heard it.

I listened to it…
until around 4:00 a.m., I think?

Why do you think I have this stuff
on my face?

I really like that song.

[Amalia] Hmm.

I'll add it to the new album.

-[dramatic musical stinger]
-[scoffs]

Are you serious?

Well, no wonder you were acting strange
during that interview.

It was like you didn't know what to say.
No, Víctor.

That album has been completed,
the art finalized.

All that's left is to release it. Done.

Then, we'll have to push the release date
to make space for the song.

Yeah, sure. If it were so simple.

It will be as easy as falling off a log.

That album is trash.

It is not trash, Víctor. Don't say that.

Compared to this song
and what I've been working on,

it is trash.

[laughs] Listen, Víctor.

All right, kid, how about this.

We're going to release
this album and begin work on the third,

where you can throw in your song
and any other songs you like.

-Huh?
-You know what it is, Mom?

This song will make the album worthwhile.

It just makes sense,
it stirs emotions in me.

Unlike the other songs,
which I created for the sake of it,

to be commercial products, nothing more.

Be serious, man,
all of your songs are good.

Besides, that's no reason
to put us in a bind.

-No.
-My whole life,

I have trusted you unconditionally, right?

Right.

Well… I need you
to do the same for me, okay?

See, Mom,
I have a superpower called intuition.

And I'm certain

this song will make the album
more than worth it. Trust me.

People will remember me
for this song, I swear.

That's it right there.

That's it, right?

People aren't the issue.
The real issue is Karen.

[dramatic musical stinger]

You just want to sneak this song in there
to dedicate it to Karen.

-Is that it?
-Of course not, Mom.

-Ha!
-Mom, I don't know

if Karen will even listen to it.

What truly matters

is that this song will be worth
the album's weight in gold.

-It will complete it.
-No, no.

It helps me make so much sense
of my life right now.

That's wonderful, my dear.
I'm happy to hear it.

I simply can't wait.

-But I'm also scared half to death.
-Why "scared"?

The entire area will switch to green
energy thanks to you.

The benefits will speak for themselves,
so more will follow.

Thanks to Daniel.

It was his idea, after all.

And you, too. You're too humble.

What if it all goes south, Karen?

South, how? You know exactly
what you're doing.

It's up to Daniel
to sell everyone on the idea.

I'm no good at that stuff.

I think you make a perfect team.
You complement each other perfectly.

And I see that
not only when it comes to work.

Really?

Daniel is a catch, Karen.

I know I shouldn't confuse kindness
for love,

but, I don't know.

I don't know.
I'm starting to like him again.

Well, you're a wonderful woman,
and Daniel is a great guy.

[Víctor] Hello, how are you?
How are things?

[intriguing music]

I have to go, dear. Keep me posted, okay?

Okay. Say hi to Esteban for me.

Will do.

[exhales]

Oof, man, come on.
Don't try to hide it, at the very least.

I've overcome challenges in life,
but this…

Hello.

Hey.

So where are we sh**ting?

[tender music]

Come again?

Will you be in it?

Yeah.

ORDUZ FOR PRESIDENT

I hope the information I sent you
has been of use.

Good morning.

You were right.

The foundation's accounting
is a hundred percent transparent.

If we want to make an ill*gal transaction,

we need to find a seemingly legal donor.

Don't you worry.

I got that covered.

That's today's schedule? What else?

We have a meeting with the oil group,

followed by a call with two
of the group's major businessmen.

All that matters is,

be yourself.

-Gotcha.
-Okay.

-Let's begin.
-Ready.

Go, action.

-[cell phone rings]
-Ah.

Oof, hold on a second.

I'm getting a call. I'll make it quick.

Well, all right.

[clears throat]

So, how did last night go?

It went well.

I'm sorry we gave you a hard time.

You weren't exactly comfortable, either.

Well, I was in the dark, too.

Seems Alexander likes to put you
in situations you don't like to be in.

To be fair, when it came to the photo,
he nailed it.

Can't hold that against him.

No, no. On the contrary,
I think it's a solid idea.

I even put it up on my social media
this morning.

Thanks.

Letting the public know there's nothing
going on between us is good, right?

Yes. It's for the best.

[gentle music]

Can you apply some blush on me?

Sure thing.

What's up with Karen and Víctor?

-Nothing. Why?
-She seems out of it.

No clue.

Is it all the gossip
about the two of them?

Could be.

Lidia, you're Karen's best friend.

-What's going on?
-Nothing is going on, Esteban.

It's business as usual.

-As always.
-That's really the line you're feeding me?

This is how people start talking.

By filling in the blanks
when nothing is there,

because two people sat next to each other.

Nothing is going on.

[tense music]

Okay, people. Sorry about that, I'm ready.

-Okay.
-We're ready.

Great. So, let's get started.

How about this, let's call Esteban.
He's a star.

-He can sit here, and make it snappy.
-You'll do fine.

You will see that you're a natural, Karen.

You're amazing.

I mean… how many sponsors
have you secured now?

But not like that, Víctor.

I feel like I'm in elementary school.
[laughs]

You know what? Let's try this.
Let's forget about all this and just chat.

Let's just chat.

Plus, I've been wanting to know something.

-What?
-I want you to tell me about your mom.

What for?

Tell me about her?

[cheerful music]

My mom was a wonderful woman.

She loved to cook.

She worked hard to prepare a different
breakfast for us every morning.

There were days we got fried eggs

with tomato sauce on top.

She would slice
each of our sandwiches differently.

She would cut up sausages
to make them look like little octopuses.

She used to say that every day

should start with something special.

She always did that.

[cheerful music continues]

She made me take self-defense classes

so I wouldn't go through what she did.

But, sadly, not everything can be solved

with techniques or karate moves.

We need to learn to ask for help.

To live among caring people,

who support us,

who look out for us.

I know it's hard to ask for help.

But it's crucial for us to learn.

Our foundation needs help.

Today, we need your help.

Víctor Rodríguez…

in an act of genuine kindness,
is granting us a show.

If you want to take part,

if you want to join us…

if you want to take part
in changing someone's life,

then get yourselves a ticket.

These five fingers of mine…
they move independently.

But together…

we are much stronger.

[Víctor] Cut!

There we go!

Wonderful! I loved it.

Perfect.

You see?

[cheerful music fades]

Thanks.

What did he say?

Your son is throwing around
that land deal.

Why is that?

He and his girl are getting people

for that renewable energy project.

If they convince everyone,
then no one will want to sell.

[groans]

Just what I needed.

[tense music]

[music fades]

María,

I need you to go to town
and fetch me what's on this list.

I'm very busy right now.

Well, whenever you can.

I'll head to town tomorrow, if that works.

No, I need you to go today.

Then, it will be up to you.

I'm working.

So am I.

María, don't forget
that you work for the ranch.

I work for Mr. Fernán, not you.

I am your boss.

I am old, weathered by time,
and have worked here far too long

to be bossed around by some poser.

Do what I say, don't start problems.

Do it yourself.

Don't you worry,
I'm used to dealing with problems.

[tense music]

Daniel.

What's up, María?

Don't tell me the staff is rebelling
against you.

Nothing that can't be fixed.

What's up with you?

You left me hanging for our nightcap.

[gasps] Judging by that face,
it seems like you had a good time.

I really did.

-Hmm.
-So much so that I'm leaving.

Off to Bogotá?

No, I'm staying in town.

With your girl?

Still a lot of unfinished business here.

So, don't you worry,
we will see more of each other.

[intriguing music]

[music fades]

-I loved it.
-Thanks.

That turned out great.
Thank you so much, really.

It's all thanks to her that we nailed it.

No, no. See you.

You. If it wasn't for you, I'd still be
babbling in front of that camera.

Don't say that. You were great.

I say we get some drinks to celebrate.

-How about it?
-No, no. I'll have to pass.

I have a lot to do
at the production company.

But I'll be sending you
the finalized video with music.

-Thanks.
-Sound good?

-Perfect. Take care.
-Be seeing you, Esteban.

-Bye.
-Bye.

You guys fighting? Something wrong?

No.

-Not at all.
-[Lidia] Karen,

they need you.

-See you around.
-Later.

I'm Adriana Torres, representative
of L'égalité de Femmes. My pleasure.

If you don't know us, we're an NGO
with a headquarters in France.

[emotional music]

Pleased to meet you. How can I help?

Well, each year we donate funds
to aid foundations

from developing countries.
This year, it's Colombia's turn.

After much analysis,

we believe this is the foundation
we want to provide aid to.

How did you hear about us?

We've been following you for a while.

Your ranking is far higher
than other foundations in the country.

Not just for yielding excellent results,

but also for your impeccable reputation.

What's more,

you should know that Víctor Rodríguez's
publicity campaign

has really helped you guys to get noticed.

And just between us girls,
I think it's wonderful.

[both laugh]

You don't fail to impress.

So sorry, I forgot to get you
something to drink. Tea, coffee?

Oh, sure. Coffee would be great.

-Got it.
-Shall we move on?

Yes, I'll be with you in just a moment.
Be there soon.

[suspenseful music]

[phone chimes]

[music intensifies]

We have our ticket in.

[music fades]

Daniel has this great idea.

If it works, it could turn
into a k*ller project.

Isn't that something.

I'm glad to hear it.

How are you doing?

I'm well. All over the place.
Got a lot of work.

I'm sorry to ask, Iván, but…

about publishing
that article on the project,

is that still on?

Of course.

Thing is, we don't have a lot of material,

and I can't put a single person
in the spotlight like that.

How can I help?

You could help me by arranging
a list of specialists on every subject.

To arrange some interviews
and all the material,

but do it over here.

No, Iván, I can't do that now.

I can't leave until the project
gets the go-ahead.

[clicks tongue]
Then we do it when you get back.

I could do interviews over video calls.

I can send the recordings,
a list of key points,

-and that's that.
-Kitty, the thing is,

that long-distance stuff
is a real mess. Trust me.

It would help us a lot
if you published that article, Iván.

I can take care of it from here,
seriously.

I'm truly sorry, I want to help you,

but… truth is, I just can't right now.

Election coverage is keeping
a tight leash on the paper.

Right, I understand.

We'll talk when you're back.

Deal.

Still, thanks for everything.

[sinister music]

DIGITAL COUNTERPOINT

[knocking on door]

[tense music]

How are you, Kitty?

I'm fine, you?

We love Autonomous Women's ideology

and all of its accomplishments to date.

Thank you very much.

We believe it's crucial
to support initiatives

that aid in fighting violence
against women across the globe.

This year, however,
we're focusing on Latin America.

We're flattered our foundation was chosen
to receive such a generous donation.

Mm-hmm. We hope it'll be the start
of a long and fruitful relationship.

It will be.

Anyway, Adriana will explain to you

the process behind receiving the funds.

We will clear up
any doubts you might have.

If you wish to speak to me again,

Adriana, can you give them
my phone number?

Great. Thanks so much, Emma.

Be seeing you.

-Well.
-[Adriana] So…

you heard it
from our legal representative.

-Emma Peeters, correct?
-Yes.

Here I have all the legal paperwork
that is needed to finalize the process.

Anything you need is here. Feel free
to ask us for whatever you need, too.

-[Esteban] Okay. Perfect.
-[Adriana] Well?

We can head to my office, if you please.

Very well.

[Adriana laughs] See you.

-This way.
-Oh, thanks.

[suspenseful music]

[sighs]

This is a godsend.

[exhales]

The NGO is real. This way,
Karen can verify their information

on the web and social media.

The only part that is made up
is them wanting to make a donation.

I need you to explain to me
how you intend to involve your wife

without legal repercussions for her.

We'll get Karen an account
in the Solomon Islands.

She won't be able to explain
how she's illegally receiving

a donation by way of a verified NGO.

That doesn't answer my question.

We won't give Karen a dime.

Unless she betrays me. Otherwise, no.

How can you be so sure
she will give into blackmail,

if it comes down to that,
that she won't denounce it publicly?

[tense music]

There are two crucial elements
to Karen's life,

our son and that foundation.

Karen won't run the risk of losing
either of them allowing an investigation

that will yield proof that implicates
her, and gets her locked up.

This is how I'll have Karen under my heel,
to make her do and say

as her husband pleases.

And so we don't have to put
a single dime into the account.

Surely no one will get in the way
of your goal to become president.

It's Adriana.

They had the video call
with the supposed NGO representative,

who is also our mole, of course.

Did they buy it?

It's all settled.

Now we open that bank account,
and we're set.

I need her signature and fingerprints.

You can count on your president.

Your future president.

[dramatic musical stinger]

[music fades]

Kitty?

[knocks on door] Kitty.

[sinister music]

[Kitty] So all of this land is yours?

[Fernán] Yes, ma'am.

Bought it a few months back,
I wanted to get into agriculture.

You can make good use
of it for your project.

How did you know about it?

Oh, everyone knows, Kitty.

No one can keep secrets here.

Tell me what you need, and I'll bring it.

Better yet, tell me,

why the kind gestures, Fernán?

I'd be lying if I said it was
out of pure kindness.

So?

Well, I'm interested
in the project succeeding.

Around here, we have a lot
of electricity, water issues,

yet if we can sort that out,
it's no wonder I'd be interested.

So, what would you want in return?

Well,

I am hiring you to do a job for me.

Obviously, you will have
a good salary, right?

You just get the ball rolling
on the project, that's all I ask,

and we're good.

You got your job,

and I can save up cash,
and we're both happy campers.

Is this because of Daniel?

[tense music]

Uh… [clears throat] listen.

Despite the bad blood between us,
above all, I'm a businessman.

I have an eye for good ideas.

And your project is a very good one. Okay?

It's really good.

Now that you bring up Daniel,

I'm sure he will convince you

that I have a dark scheme.

An evil plan to do you harm.

I'm sorry, Fernán,

but with the history between you two,

anyone would rightfully think that.

Daniel has become obsessed with enacting
some nonsensical revenge.

I need you to redirect his focus,

onto the important things, okay?

To be surrounded by people who can help
him move forward. To get motivated.

You are one of those people.

[tense music continues]

Daniel is still my son,
for better or for worse.

I'll tell you this.

Don't believe everything about me.

Get to know me first,
before drawing conclusions.

Hmm?

Think it over.

[music intensifies]

[music fades]

These are the cheapest available sites
I've found

for the foundation's show. Take a look.

[cell phone rings]

Hello?

-[Karen] Hey.
-How are you?

I have wonderful news.

Yeah? Lay it on me.

A French NGO is going to give us
a very generous donation.

For real?

They knew about us,
but we piqued their interest

when they saw your promo videos.

Well… that's great news. Wonderful.

The representative is a fan of yours,
and it was her who told us

you're to thank for us getting
the international spotlight.

I can't tell you how happy
I am to hear it.

That was the idea.

Víctor,

I know I shouldn't have called,
I did ask you to keep your distance.

But how could I hold in
that piece of news?

On the contrary, you made my day.
Thanks for telling me.

Thank you.

This wouldn't have been possible
without you.

In fact, we've been looking
at local venues

for the show.

We can go over them together
to make a decision, if you want.

I can't, Víctor.

[somber music]

This whole campaign with Alexander
has kept me very busy.

Not a moment to spare.
But meet with Lidia.

[sighs]

Right, of course.

Uh…

But… you will be at the show, right?

Of course.

Then, it's settled.

Bye.

-[Jair] The first one seems--
-Right? No, the second one.

-It's a good location.
-Right? The location.

It's more…

-[Amalia coughs] I like that one the best.
-I'm going…

to talk to Lidia about this, and…

we'll make a decision, okay?

[dramatic music]

My man…

can I ask you for a favor?

I have to head out now. Can you stay
with Víctor, try to raise morale?

Because he plummeted like…

[giggles] I'll see
what I can do, Mrs. Amalia.

No, no. You can do it.

-Right. Yes, I can.
-You can. Right.

-I can. Got it, got it.
-Good.

-Yes.
-I'm counting on you.

Okay, take it easy.

I don't mind doing it myself.

But wouldn't you rather
see the venues yourself?

-I absolutely trust your judgment.
-I know.

Okay. Thing is, you're swatting
Víctor away like he's the plague.

"The plague."

Lidia, you know perfectly well
that the less we interact, the better.

I get it. But I feel bad.

Why is that?

He keeps making up excuses to be near you.

I know.

Best to let it be.

-Over here, please.
-Thank you.

-[Karen] Ready?
-Yes, all set.

All we need is to get your paperwork,
for us to send ours,

and if you have no further questions,
we can get started.

-Perfect.
-Ooh.

It's been a pleasure.

Likewise. Like Emma said, "It's the start
of a long and fruitful relationship."

Exactly.

-Yes, I'm sure of it.
-Thank you so much.

-It's nothing. Be well.
-Thanks.

-See you soon.
-Thanks for everything.

-Go ahead.
-See you.

-I have to go, too.
-Where to?

Alexander asked me to work
on the campaign with him.

What a drag.

Not at all.

See, I've enjoyed my time with him.

Another honeymoon phase, huh?

We argue a bit, but I feel
like we're starting to be

like our old selves again.

Glad to hear it.

-Don't forget the NGO's documents.
-I'll send them as soon as I have them.

-Bye. Best of luck.
-Thanks.

You haven't told her, huh?

What for?

Don't you think she would want to know
you're starting the divorce proceedings?

She has enough on her plate
to worry about that right now.

Besides, I don't want her to convince me
to change my mind.

I'm going to ask you to do the same.

Not at all. I'll keep quiet.

Don't you worry.

Okay. Thank you.

[somber music]

-[Amalia] Thursday.
-What's up, Amalia?

What's up, girl?

There's something I need to know.

Go on.

-[counting]
-What is going on with Víctor?

-What do you mean?
-What do you mean? He's off lately.

He seems, like, sad or depressed, right?

No. He's just stressed
from working on the release.

Who wouldn't be?

Right.

Wouldn't it have something to do
with that Karen?

Why would that be?

Because I'm not stupid.

Rumors are going around
that the two of them are together,

and I believe it to be true.

Rumors are just that,
we won't be feeding into them, okay?

-Careful.
-Hmm.

[intriguing music]

I don't get it, then.

I mean, I don't get why he acted
so strange

when that broad was with her husband
at the show in the restaurant.

And why the kind gestures
towards the foundation all of a sudden?

Because Víctor wants to get his foot
through the door

by helping a bunch of women
with ungrateful husbands who only

ever touch them with a ten foot pole.

So, now Víctor is supposed
to be Mother Teresa?

Don't take me for a fool.

Girl, what do you want me to say?

[intriguing music continues]

You just said it all.

[tense musical stinger]

Víctor is head over heels for her, huh?

Betty…

you realize this is a conversation
you shouldn't have with me, don't you?

Close the door on your way out.

We still have time to find a lawyer.

No, my dear.

My dad made me the same offer,
and I refused.

Esteban and I agreed we would…

settle the division of marital property.

How are you doing?

I don't know.

[somber music]

I have mixed feelings.

Don't you think
there's something that can be done?

Good evening.

-Hi.
-[Esteban] Hello.

-Esteban.
-Iván.

-How are you?
-Good. You?

-All good.
-My dear, let us have a moment.

Let's talk, okay?

[sighs]

-Why wasn't I told it would be today?
-I didn't know.

Doris told me to come with her
at the last minute.

How is she?

She's devastated.

She's trying to stay strong, as usual.

I think she will definitely need our help.

You should come, Daniel.

No, Iván. I would have loved to accompany
her, but I can't leave Kitty here.

We're talking about our sister, Daniel.
This is important.

Yes, I know that.
But this is important, too.

I can't be there.

This is just the beginning.

Talk to you later.

[dramatic music]

[tense music]

See you, Kitty.

[music fades]

Why isn't Karen here?

She must be on her way.

Call Mrs. Karen again.

sh*t. We can't start without her.

-Sir, she's here.
-Oh?

Okay. Great.

That's great.

-Great.
-In a taxi?

I have no idea.

[Karen] Thanks.

Are we all set?

-The venue, all squared away?
-Yes, yes.

How are you?

Uh… where's your shirt?

I didn't get one.

You didn't?

Where's the lady's shirt?

Go, get her stuff! Get going!

-I'm going.
-Thanks, Carlos.

Bring the tennis shoes.

-f*ck.
-Thanks.

-Let's go.
-[mouthing] Relax.

Thanks for coming.

-With all my love.
-Okay.

Cross your heart and hope to die,

Mm-hmm.

Thoughts on the song?

Look, man,

hand to God, I think it's the sh*t.

-Yeah?
-Yeah.

-[Pedro] What?
-You don't think it's too mainstream?

"Mainstream"?

Why do you ask?

I'm feeling that way
about many of the songs on the album.

Nah, man. You're just
a bit nervous about the release--

No, I'm not nervous. It's not that.

Look, I did this album
to uphold my commitment.

To capitalize off
of my last album's success.

But, I don't know. I think…

it doesn't have anything
that speaks from the heart, you know?

Let me show you something I made.

Okay.

Uh, Pedro, start recording, okay?

Got it, boss.

-You were amazing, man.

So? New single for the album?

No way, man.

We're changing all the tracks
