FORBIDDEN WOMAN

It's just that I loved the look
on Kitty's face.

She was on cloud nine. [laughs]

I don't understand why Daniel
proposed to her.

Why was he in such a hurry?

Look, Iván.

For centuries,
Daniel has lived and died for Kitty.

And it's the first time
I feel like she's really interested.

They're getting married,
the dilemma is over,

they want to try their luck
in another country.

What other reasons do you need?

Daniel should have waited.

[scoffs] For what?

-For you to take her from him?
-[dramatic musical stinger]

[tense, dramatic music playing]

I saw the look on your face
when Daniel proposed.

It was a rash decision.

Daniel is not in his right mind.

He's still upset, hot-blooded,
and that's no way to make decisions.

He can't think clearly
when he's like that. That's all.

But they love each other.

They're moving to Mexico,

and they want to celebrate
their marriage with us here.

I don't understand what the problem is.

You don't understand.
That has nothing to do with them. No.

You like Kitty, admit it.

-I like her.
-Hmm.

-And I'm glad Daniel's happy.
-[huffs]

If you don't believe me,
that's your problem.

If it's not for her,

tell me what's bothering you,
what's troubling you.

I already told you, Doris,
those decisions are not made lightly.

Or are you going to tell me
that marriage is a very simple thing?

[chuckles]

-[Fernán] What's up, guys?
-Hey, Dad.

Where have you been?

We were at Daniel's,

he asked Kitty to marry him.

-You don't say.
-Mm-hmm.

Another one who's in a hurry.

Good.

I'm happy for him.

Yes.

I need a favor.

Father Santiago is asking me
for two of our best,

and it sounds to me like
it could be the two of you?

[chuckles]

No.

-No, this isn't for real, right?
-Yes. Why not?

I think it's perfect.

Yes or no? I'll tell him to mark it down.

But…

[Fernán] Ready, Father.

[feigns laughter] No.

It can't be.

[Lidia] This brochure contains
all the services we offer.

So if you need us,
don't hesitate to call us, okay?

-Thank you.
-Okay.

Honey.

Tell me what's going on.

I want to end this relationship.

[tense music]

Why? What happened?
Did I do something wrong?

No. It's not you.

So?

I'm done, Jimmy.

I don't feel well.

I don't feel fulfilled
by this relationship.

Are you serious, Lidia?

Yes.

And it hurts to say this,

but instead of staying
in a relationship where I'm not happy,

I'd rather break up.

And tell you the truth.

[man] Well, what is it?

[crowd clamoring]

[Pedro] People, calm down.
He's coming, Víctor's coming.

This is a mess.

Yes, I know.

-It's tough.
-If he keeps this up,

I'll have a heart attack.

Why don't you call Karen
to see if she knows where he is?

Betty, if this continues, you should sing.

Me? What do you mean? No.

Why not?

You have a couple of songs ready,
at least, I don't know.

Jair, can't you
hear them shouting "Víctor"?

Yes, the people who paid to see him
will make a scene.

That's not a bad idea.

You prep a couple of songs
while I look for this idiot.

And if he doesn't answer, I'll call Karen.
What else can I do?

-[grumbles]
-No. Why would you do that?

-You're thinking of calling whom?
-Víctor.

Where were you?
Why don't you answer your phone?

-Why?
-Were you calling me?

-[mimics Víctor angrily]
-I don't know, I had it off, that's why.

But I'm here now. It's not a problem.

-What?
-No, man.

Hey, what's with that dress?
It looks cute on you.

-Thanks.
-It's like the one I saw on my mom

-a while ago…
-Víctor, you…

-What?
-Are you drunk?

-No. You…
-You smell like booze.

You smell like booze, Víctor.

But I just had a little drink.

I was in the neighborhood,
and I ran into Pipe.

-How can I say no?
-What Pipe?

Pipe, my foot.

You know you can't drink.

-Don't f*ck with me, Víctor.
-Don't be so dramatic.

-I'm fine now.
-I'm not dramatic. I can't believe it.

Besides, which Pipe?

-You were with Karen.
-How can you say that?

Yes, sir. She called you and you ran away.

-For a change.
-I was with her for a while.

Then I went to Pipe's,
and then I came here. What's the problem?

-Mom, stop being so dramatic.
-You can't go up

-on stage like that.
-Like what?

-It's irresponsible.
-I'm fine.

I don't have a problem. Look, I'm fine.

I can go anywhere.

Why are we here? To sing.
What are we going to do?

-Work.
-Víctor.

Let's go! [hoots]

-[Víctor] What do you say?
-[cheering]

Because we came to sing.

Hello. Good evening.

[Víctor exclaims]

Good evening, everyone. How are you?

[audience cheers]

What a pleasure.

What a pleasure
to be here with all of you.

Thank you, thank you for joining us.

Uh…

Are you going to film the show?

No, don't worry.
No need to hide it. On the contrary.

I want you to record, and anyone who wants
to take out their cell phone, record,

do a live performance, whatever you want,

please do that.

Because I want the people
who couldn't make it to the concert

to have the opportunity to see it,

and to know what a real show is.

[audience cheering]

Now,

another important question.

Is that guaro you have there?

[tense music]

Because if it is,
I'd be happy to accept one.

-Can I have a drink?
-[crowd cheering]

That's it!

Cheers!

[hoots, laughs]

-[woman] Víctor.
-Hmm.

[Víctor] To you, too.

[grunts, shudders]

[laughs]

I want you to raise your hand.
Where are you, where are we,

all the heartbroken ones?

[hoots] Make some noise!
Make some noise! [chuckles]

Well, there are quite a few of us.

Betty, why are you looking at me
like that? No, come here.

Pour me a drink. That's it.

Thank you so much.

Well, now Víctor Rodríguez is here.

Hey. [chuckles]

Have a drink, Betty, please.

[chants] Take it, take it, take it!

She won't run away from singing tonight,

and you don't know the treasure
that woman has with her voice.

And we're all going to hear it today.
Yes or no?

[audience] Yes!

[tense music]

They're looking at me
like we have to sing,

because that's why we're here, right?

And I think they're a bit angry. I'm not.

Are you angry?

[audience] No!

Okay!

So, I want you to have fun tonight.

I want you to stand up,
I want you to sing.

Because sorrows…

[audience] "Are drowned by singing!"

You know how it is.

I'm going to dedicate this first song

to all of us who are on the rebound.

Of course I'm not on the rebound.

I'm f*cked up.

[crowd cheering]

[Víctor mumbles] I'm going to get
some water and I'll be right back, okay?

[tense music]

I'll get off the stage, don't worry.

I'll be right back.

[Víctor coughs]

[hoarsely] Give me some water.

Did you see what happened back there?
You almost died in that stairwell twice.

But nothing happened. I'm fine.

-Yes, it did, Víctor.
-Thank you.

And it's serious,

because everything that has
to do with you and drinking is serious.

You can count on it.
You did well over there.

Just because you didn't mess up
on the way in,

doesn't mean I'll risk you screwing up
on the way out.

Stop nagging, Mom.

Everything's fine. I feel fine.

-We'll do a good job.
-Don't you get what I'm telling you?

You're not getting back on that stage.

What do you mean? I came to sing.
I have to finish the concert.

Of course I'm getting on.

Víctor.

For the love I feel for you,
which is the greatest thing,

if you get back on that stage,
I'll quit being your manager.

[dramatic stinger]

For real.

[tense music]

[Amalia sighs]

Betty, get ready, you're closing.

Let's go.

Daniel wants to exchange it.

He says we should buy another
one when we get to Bogotá.

But I like it.

It's not the biggest diamond,

but it tells a story,
and that's what's important.

I'm so happy for you, Kitty.
Daniel is a great man.

You have to help me with the trip

and the wedding when I get back to Bogotá.

Of course.

Hey, you never told me
what happened with Alexander.

[dramatic music]

Are you getting a divorce?

I'm not so sure.

Why?

Honey, so much has happened.
I'll tell you when you're here.

I'm worried about you.

No, don't worry.

You start celebrating

and prepare for what will be your life
from now on.

It's not every day
that you commit to marriage.

I'll talk to you later.

See you soon.

At least one of us
is with a man like that.

[Karen sighs]

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

[music fades]

When you were in the hospital,

Karen told me she was having a hard time
with Alexander,

that you were going to separate.

Then something came up with the foundation
and she had to run away,

and that was it.

Mm-hmm?

And since then?

No, well…

I was so focused on you
that I barely remembered to ask him.

But I have a bad feeling.

I think something's going on, but…

-I don't know what it is.
-Mm-hmm. Come here.

Nothing happened. [groans]

I swear.

[soft intriguing music playing]

Kitty will need all the details,
and if I don't give them to her,

she'll go looking for Esteban.

[Lidia] Wait until she comes back.

You have enough going on with Víctor.

Oh, Lidia.

I'd like to call him,

to see him,

to know how he's doing.

[Alexander] To what do I owe this miracle?

I haven't seen you around here
in a long time.

-How are you?
-Hello.

[clears throat]

What are you doing?

I asked Lidia to come by to give me
a heads-up on the foundation.

A little gossip.

I'm going to get some wine
and we can hang out.

No, Lidia is about to leave.

[Alexander] Oh…

Where's Sergio?

He's upstairs.

I was just about to tell him
to stop playing with that thing.

-He's been on it since he got here.
-Don't worry.

Relax with your wine, you need it,
and I'll take care of it.

I love seeing you.

See you later.

[dramatic music playing]

What was that?

I'll show you the lie
I've been living with all this time.

[music fades]

[Víctor] I don't know, I don't understand.

No, it's just…

-Mom.
-[Amalia grunts]

She chose him.

[somber music playing]

After everything she knows, she chose him.

I can't believe it.

What's more, I thought…

she left me for another reason, but…

No, I saw her so happy
with her husband and her son.

You know what?

What she needed was some time.

She needed some time
and she ran into this guy.

And when she didn't want me anymore,
she told me to go to hell.

[Amalia sighs]

Víctor, try to sleep, try to rest, man.

[somber music continues]

And yet, I don't know how
I'm going to get her out of my heart.

I don't know what to do.

[scoffs]

No. Can't we reschedule
the press conference?

I'm not in a good place right now.
I'm exhausted.

-Yes.
-[footsteps approaching]

We'll talk tomorrow.

And Lidia?

She left.

[clears throat]

You told her, didn't you?

-What do you care?
-[tense music playing]

What did you tell her about us?

Answer me.

What did you tell her?

Of course, you're always gossiping.

You tell her everything.

I could tell by the way she looked at me.

Lydia has nothing to do with it.

Why is it so hard for you
to tell the truth?

She was the one who realized
that the NGO's money hadn't arrived.

And she was the one who helped me
find out what was going on.

She realized it was a scam.

She was going to call the police
and report it.

-Who else knows?
-No one.

Esteban?

Kitty?

Víctor?

No one knows anything.

Esteban had to find out, he works there.

Yes, of course. Esteban realized
that the real NGO never made a donation.

He doesn't know it was you.

It's so tiring having to remind you
all the time

about how the rules work.

You don't have to.

If you keep sleeping with Sergio,
he's going to notice.

[Karen] If you don't want me
to sleep here, tell me.

No, I like you spending time with me.

I love sleeping with you.

We had a good time tonight, didn't we?

What do you think?

Yes, it's been a while
since the three of us spent time together.

[somber music playing]

That's true.

I wish Dad would stop being…
angry all the time.

[dramatic music stinger]

[cell phone ringing]

[tense, dramatic music playing]

[cell phone ringing]

[grunts]

[grunts]

[sighs]

[exhales sharply]

[grunts]

[Alexander] Good morning.

How did you sleep?

Please, for the boy.

Sergio isn't here.

No, he was changing. He'll be right down.

[Karen sighs]

I was thinking about
what you said about Lidia.

-The donation…
-I told you to leave her out of this.

But are you waiting for that money
for something special?

Why do you care?

Well, sometimes…

money is compromised
or used before it's arrived.

So?

If you need to… fill that financial hole…

-Are you going to help me?
-Of course.

Are you serious?

Of course I am. It's an act of good faith
to show you that I want to try.

"Try" what?

To make up for your blackmail
with good deeds?

Alexander,

nothing you do will fix
what you've already done.

I'll never forgive you.

[dramatic musical stinger]

[cell phone chimes]

Look.

[Víctor] Well, this next song

is very special to me.

It's… I can tell you
that it's my favorite right now.

Because it's part of… a change,

something I'm going through.

And I dedicate it to that person
who's making me feel that way.

And while Víctor Rodríguez
has already claimed

on both his social media
and in his appearances

that his drinking problem
is a thing of the past,

last night, in the middle of a show,

he was seen drinking
and accepting liquor from fans.

Who could it be
that's got him suffering so much?

Could it be the one we suspect?

This has to stop now.

I did what you asked.

I broke up with him.

Gossip like that can hurt
the campaign at this point.

[tense music playing]

From the bottom of my heart, Alexander,

I hope it does.

Sergio!

Honey, what do you want for breakfast?

[music fades]

I'm arriving at Dani's ranch.

Why didn't you tell me? I wanted to go.

I got up early to buy her some
medicine that she needed,

and I want to be here
because Kitty is leaving today.

All the more reason to tell me.

Now that you're not doing much,
go with your stepmother

to prepare for the wedding.

Don't even joke about that.
I don't like it.

You hate her that much?

And you don't?

I'm indifferent, to be honest.

Brother, you shouldn't be indifferent.

She's capable of leaving us
without an inheritance.

That's not it.

That's not it?

Don't tell me
you think she's with Dad out of love.

[chuckles]

-[Iván] Why not?
-Oh, poor thing.

Don't be so naive.

If she's with Dad, then she's by his side,
puts up with him, takes care of him.

Don't you think he deserves that?

Well, let's see how well
she takes care of him.

-[María] Doris.
-Yes?

-Breakfast is ready.
-Thank you.

I'm going to have breakfast.
Please give Daniel a kiss for me.

Tell him I'll be there later.

Okay. See you later.

Okay, bye.

[sighs]

[Gisela] It's time to saddle them up.

-[María] Gisela.
-Hmm?

This is the list of what to buy in town.

I'll give it to the person in charge.

Where's Fernan?

He's finishing up having breakfast
with Doris.

I hope he takes it down a notch.

Doris is serious.

[tense music playing]

So am I.

If Doris insists,

your marriage and your relationship
with Fernán will be over.

We'll see, María.

-[Doris] Good morning.
-[Fernán] Good morning.

-Where's Gisela?
-She doesn't get hungry at this hour.

That's exactly who
I wanted to talk to you about.

[Doris chuckles]

-She's already complained to you.
-[chuckles]

She told me about the fight you had.

Sweetie,

I'm not going to ask you
to be best friends,

but I will ask you to accept her.

She's an opportunist, Dad.

Show some respect, Doris.

She's the woman I want
and the one I'm going to marry.

You have to get used to that idea.

Dad,

do you really
think she's in love with you?

Let's see.

I think right now
she has the necessary motivation

to be with me for the rest of my life.

What do you mean by that?

I have the money I have
because I've taken care of you.

-Right?
-Mm-hmm.

Well, I don't want to be alone.

No, but I don't want you
to be alone either, Dad.

But her?

It is what it is.

And I like what it is.

It's like when you were with Esteban.

I didn't like him, but I accepted it
because you were in love with him.

-Those comparisons, Dad.
-Doll,

I'm just asking you to accept my decisions
as I accepted yours.

Befriend her, I don't know.

At least accept her.
Will you do me that favor?

I'll try.

[suspenseful music playing]

Iván.

What are you doing here?

I don't understand.
I don't understand what else

has to happen to you
for you to take security seriously.

Anyone could have gotten in.

Yes, I know. It's my fault.

Your medication.

Oh, thank you.

You're a lifesaver.

What time are you leaving?

I have to take a shower. I'm late.

Thank you.

I don't get it, really.

Iván.

That woman is the only thing
I care about in life.

María, do you have coffee?

-Sit down, it won't take long.
-Thank you.

-Would you like some rice bread?
-No, thank you.

I had enough breakfast.

Are you staying for your dad's wedding?

Hmm. It's my turn.

How's the new stepmother?

So tacky.

[tense musical stinger]

I don't understand
what my dad sees in her.

And you?

I hope that when your dad opens his eyes,
it won't be too late.

Why do you say that?

Why do you think that woman is here?

The thing is, my dad takes better care
of his money than his own children, right?

Yes.

But she has the advantage
of being a woman.

I wish you could
convince him not to screw up.

-That's difficult.
-Mm-hmm.

If you need help…

How?

That woman is not good
for the ranch or the family.

And you're not the only one
who wants to see her far away from here.

I'll be right back with your coffee.

[tense music playing]

No, but a lot of people
criticize Víctor for coming home drunk.

And since he talked about
the drinking problem he had in the past,

they beat him up here.

Look, they say he's a hypocrite.

-No.
-Yes, but it could have been worse.

-It went well.
-[sighs]

Mm-mm.

The best way to stop gossip is
to talk about it,

up-front. That's what we'll do.

[suspenseful music playing]

Hello.

Well, Mrs. Amalia, if you'll excuse me.

-I have work to do…
-I'll see you later.

Víctor.

I know it was wrong.

But it's not that serious.

At the end of the day,
the concert went on.

Of course it's serious, Víctor.

Don't you remember
how much you and I suffered

with your drinking problem the first time?

I remember.

It won't happen again.

I also thought it wouldn't happen again.

But you were drunk
when you arrived, Víctor.

And you downed half the people's drinks.

-You're k*lling my head.
-Oh, that's too bad!

I said it won't happen again.

Yes, you said that many times before too.

-Many times.
-It'll be different this time.

I broke up with Karen,
and I was f*cked up.

[solemn music playing]

What happened?

She said she'd give it another chance

with her stupid husband. I don't know why.

Because it was what was going to happen,
Víctor. That's all.

You know what she told me?

That she was following an impulse.

That she couldn't leave her husband…

for someone like me.

Karen has a family
and you don't belong, Víctor. Period.

Why did you say all that?

Because I think she was going
to do what she told you.

But she changed her mind.

And it was the right thing to do.

One of us had to make that decision.

[music fades]

I put myself on the line with Alexander.

I can't hide my anger toward him.

But what he can't know
for the world is that Esteban knows too.

The other one I'm worried about is Kitty.

Are you going to tell her?

I don't know.

She'll find out because I told her

I had something
to tell her when she gets here.

And she's going to see
the video Víctor uploaded.

That's if she hasn't already seen it.

No, she hasn't seen the video,
she would have called me by now.

But I have to tell her something.

Have you thought about what?

That's what I don't know.

[Amalia] It hurts to see you like this.

And you're not gonna like what I'm about
to say, but Karen did you a favor.

Right now, even more so.

You just saved her a lot
of pain and problems.

Don't judge her.

I'm telling you as a woman,
Víctor, don't judge her.

I'm sure Karen felt everything
she said she felt for you.

And she thought she could do it too,
but she realized she couldn't.

[sighs] Are you taking the day off?

-No.
-If you need it.

What I need right now is to work.

Good, Betty is waiting for you.

Víctor… [sighs] One thing.

We have to face this, right?

And face it.

Publicly.

[dramatic music]

-[music fades]
-Hi.

Any news on the potential investors?

Well, we're going to have support.

It won't be much. It won't even be enough
for 30% of what we need.

Alexander offered to help.

-I didn't know it was a secret.
-It's not a secret,

-but it's not an option either.
-What do you mean?

-Financial help?
-Yes.

For the foundation.

A very generous donation.

-He's so cynical.
-It's crazy.

Can you imagine if the foundation ends up
involved in who knows what tax issues

because of what Alexander comes up with?

Well, yes. It can happen.

Let's have a meeting with the whole team

and we'll all decide how to
get funds for the foundation.

Yes.

Did you hear about Víctor?

-About last night? Yes.
-No.

About the interview.

[suspenseful music playing]

And this afternoon,
on Conversations with Martina,

we have Víctor Rodríguez,

with whom we will discuss
several important issues,

like the controversy that arose last night
after his show,

the possible relapse
of his drinking problem,

and who the woman is that broke his heart.

Could Víctor Rodríguez's confessions

add some spice
to the presidential campaign?

We'll find out.

[tense music playing]

I don't understand
why you act like nothing happened.

We know Víctor has had
serious drinking problems.

Jair, that's enough.

That's how addictions are.

People fall off the wagon
and you have to stay alert and help,

not criticize things.

Besides, he sang beautifully.

What he did yesterday was irresponsible.

-Say it wasn't.
-I'm going to tell you something.

Instead of criticizing

and throwing what you already know
in Víctor's face,

-you should be there as a friend.
-Friends tell the truth.

I can't be an enabler.

-Hello.
-What's up?

How are you?

I'm very sorry
about what happened last night.

No, don't worry.

No. Don't say that. It was wrong.
It was disrespectful.

What's up, partner?

Look, I know this isn't an excuse.

But I…

broke up with Karen.

[dramatic music playing]

Really?

Why? What happened?

Well, she made a decision.

Do you want to…
I don't know, get some coffee,

get some fresh air, or talk?

Betty, no. Thank you very much.

What I need right now is
to keep my mind busy.

So, I'm going to apologize
to the rest of the team,

-and I'll be back so we can work, okay?
-Okay.

What? Oh, come on. Get a grip, Jair.

What a drag.

I think what you said to him
was very harsh.

I know, Esteban.

And I feel terrible.

But I had to say something
to drive him away for good.

Yes, but they're going to ask about you
in the interview.

And if he's on the rebound,

he can say something.

No.

Impossible.

Especially if he comes home tipsy
like he did last night.

Talk to him.

I think it's even more despicable

to ask him not to mention it
after what I said to him before.

At least ask him what he's going to say,
so you can be prepared.

Look,

I can't break his heart when it suits me

and go to him when I need him.

Hey, look.

When Doris and I were splitting up,
all I felt for her was rage,

and I wanted to hurt her.

I started badmouthing, I did
foul things that I regret and I'm sure

I'll have to apologize to her
at some point.

But I'm telling you all this
because I want you to understand

that when you're angry,

the only thing you want is revenge.

Talk to him.

[cell phone ringing]

What do you want?

Do you know about your friend's interview?

Yes.

I guess we won't have any problems.

I don't know.

I don't talk to him, remember?

Karen,

if he says a word,
he won't feel like singing.

I don't know what he'll say.

But if you're so worried,
ask him yourself.

Are you worried?

Yes.

And I'm very worried too.

Look, if Víctor tells anyone
that he had an affair with you,

I don't want to imagine
what Alexander will do.

He's going to carry out his threat.

And this is really
going to be a blow for you,

for the foundation, for Sergio.

I don't even want to imagine
what he will do

to bring you down and clear his good name.

Talk to him.

Look, this may be scandalous,

you may feel miserable, whatever you want,

but please, talk to him.

[tense music playing]

No, what do you mean?

I told you what we were going to do.

Well, that's why I thought of uploading
a video, doing a live.

I won't stop to do an interview.

-Let's do the interview.
-How can an interview be better?

So they can get information out of me,
and start gossiping?

This has already become gossip, Víctor.

What we have to do is face it.
It's happening.

-I'm not going.
-I'm not asking.

[dramatic musical flourish]

I'm telling you that you're going.

Why? Because you made this problem
for yourself. You're going to solve it.

And you'll make
people forget about it quickly,

before it becomes a problem
for your career,

for the production company,
and also for Betty's career.

Is that clear?

Get ready because they're going
to hit you hard in that interview, right?

Yes.

Anyway, we already rehearsed
a few things with my mom.

-Yes?
-Mm-hmm.

Do you want me to go with you?

No, Betty.

I don't want you involved in this.

I wouldn't mind.

[grunts]

-This guy is everywhere I look.
-Who?

[Alexander] The future is full of promises
and dreams.

But it's in the present
that we make them come true.

I invite you to put the corrupt in jail

and set a course for this country.

Vote for me.

[all] Vote!

My God, what a bummer it'll be
if this guy wins.

According to the polls,

he's going to win.

[dramatic musical flourish]

Karen did her part
and broke up with Víctor.

What we didn't foresee
was how he was going to react.

They're going to ask him about Karen.

And if he admits
that they're having or had an affair…

NATIONWIDE UNITED FAMILY

You can still talk to him.

No.

That would be showing him that I need him,

-or I'm afraid of him. It's neither.
-Then put pressure on him.

I already took away what he wanted most.

Attacking him again instead
of weakening him could empower him.

If this gets out of hand,

we'll need to take more drastic measures.
