FORBIDDEN WOMAN

Daniel knows how much I've worked
on this project

and what it means to me.

And he understands
that I'll work hard for it.

Again.

Third time's the charm.

So, he agreed?

-Yes, he's okay with it.
-Hmm.

Well, that's strange.

Well, I guess that's the way young people

sort things out.

-Exactly.
-Hmm.

Here's the contract I made.

Read it, and read it well.

This defines the agreement
between the two of us.

I'm going all in, Kitty.

I'm going to invest the money
and buy the land you need.

This is not for charity.

It's not out of generosity.

I'm interested in this project.
It looks good, promising.

What worries me
is your relationship with Daniel.

It could end up in trouble.

[suspenseful music]

You must be responsible.

I mean for everything.

-Understood?
-Understood.

All yours.

Take all the time you want.

[suspenseful music continues]

[cell phone ringing]

-What's up?
-[Daniel] Kitty is here.

And she's here to stay.

I have no idea what to do.

That photo was taken 12 years ago.

The date was written on the paper
the investigator brought,

and by that time,

Débora is the manager of PRONUEVA,
one of those government foundations.

-Is he the one?
-Yes. The one on the corner, that's Henao.

-He worked with Débora?
-Mm-hm.

He was the Assistant Manager
of Legal Affairs for that entity

while she was in charge.

To anyone unfamiliar
there might be nothing there,

but for us…

It's proof that if Henao

is working for the guy who messed
with Víctor,

it's because of her.

Mm-hm. That's how it has to be.

Otherwise, it would be
too much of a coincidence

that the lawyer at the time,

who was working with the presidential
campaign advisor,

wants to defend a guy like Chaparro,

who, even if he owns the insurance company
he works for, can't pay him.

[suspenseful music]

The election day has come to an end.

I'm at the campaign headquarters
of the Nationwide United Family party

of candidate Alexander Orduz.

The votes of the Colombians
are already at the polls,

and we are seconds away from the countdown

that will send us to a second round

or give us the name
of the country's new president.

We have an advantage on the coast
and downtown.

And the other districts?

There are two that may belong to Sonia.

And you say it just like that.

My people and I have done the impossible.

I hope it's enough, Orduz.

Because I've invested a lot of money
in you and your campaign.

A lot of money, and I don't like to lose.

I'm a born winner.

I don't lose.

Pray that you don't.

Goodbye, then.

[scoffs]

[chuckles]

No. You can't solve that
in the second round.

That's the first lap and we're out.
Well, nice to see you.

-Sergio?
-He's outside watching the cameras.

-He's with Sara.
-Perfect.

Víctor's mom called me.

[clears throat]

Mm-hm?

She asked me to meet
to talk about Víctor and his process.

-And you agreed?
-Yes.

So what?

-She has a theory.
-What is it?

She feels there's someone behind

this legal and media
scandal being made on Víctor.

-Why are you telling me all this?
-She blames you.

What's the reason?

She knows something
happened between Víctor and me.

She also knows that it's over.

And she assumes that at some point,
you found out.

Did someone tell her?

No one had to.

You exposed yourself

when you took me
to the restaurant to see Víctor.

She put two and two together,
and the answer was clear.

That woman is smart.

She's a woman who knows

that you're using your influence
and power to make Víctor pay

for getting involved with me.

[music sting]

I know Jimmy helped you.

You sent him everywhere

with the sole task of making Víctor
look like the only one to blame.

But she went beyond that.

She talked about the legal part.

The lawyer.

And why is that?

What's that?

The evidence Amalia needs

to drag your name into the case
against Víctor.

I can show this to any media outlet,

tell them she suspects,
and we'll fall into a media scandal again.

That's Débora.

And that's Chaparro's lawyer
on the corner.

I'm just giving you the heads-up.

Where did you get that?

Not from Amalia.
She has no idea that exists.

I found it.

After we talked, I did some research

and I swear it wasn't hard to find it.

Mm-hm.

If Víctor, Esteban, or Amalia
get on with it--

So you're blackmailing me.

I'm helping you.

You don't say.

I want to avoid a media scandal.

If that woman, to save her son from jail,

goes public,

your reputation as an honest man
will be gone.

If that woman talks,

her son will suffer a lot more.

She's willing to live with that.

She'd rather have her son not speak to her

than visit him every two weeks in jail.

I told you when we talked about
Jimmy, and I'll say it again:

Víctor is just a
victim of a decision I made.

[dramatic music]

The responsibility is mine.

Mm-hm.

Making his life miserable
won't help at all.

How do you know

what I get from this situation?

Víctor is not to blame
for the failure of our marriage.

There's a bulletin.

Candidate Sonia Ramirez,

National Progressive Party,

is leading this latest bulletin

from the National Registry.

While Alexander Orduz
of the Nationwide United Family Party

follows closely with 642,332 votes.

You see? The other candidate is winning.
All good.

You think that b*stard
will let himself go to a second round?

Especially in this country.
It's not normal.

What about you?

-How do you feel?
-Fine.

-Are you sure?
-Yes.

If you're not feeling well,
I have no problem taking you home.

Oh, no. No, Víctor. I don't want that.

It's not like I can go dancing,
but I don't want to--

No? Oh, man.

I thought you wanted to dance,

light up the whole room,
and bust out your secret moves.

Why are you so silly?

Well, I won't bust out my secret moves,
but I do want to say hello.

Well, in that case,

let's say hello.

Uh-huh.

But first, let me get the car. [chuckles]

Let's see, then. Shall we?

-Víctor.
-What is it?

-Thank you.
-For what?

For worrying so much about me.

You're so cute.

No, I'm sorry, but I'm not cute at all.

-You're not?
-I'm sweet.

-Let's see.
-I'll take this bag.

[Betty] Thank you.

-Careful, please.
-Yes, this door.

Step by step.

-There.
-That's it. There. Okay?

-Yes.
-I'll put it here.

-Okay.
-Step forward.

Mm-hm.

-Excellent. Let's go.
-Víctor.

-What?
-I don't want to go in like this.

Like what?

Like this, like an old lady.
No, I don't want to.

Betty, the doctor said
it was important for you to--

I know.

I'm better, and I don't feel comfortable
with this.

And I was able to walk alone
at the hospital.

Betty, it's important

-that you use this.
-No, no.

Besides, I know your mother, Víctor.

I know why your mom didn't go
to the hospital

and why she sent you here.

Why?

-That place must be full of people.
-You think so?

-I know and I'd rather die.
-No.

-How can you think that?
-No.

Come on. Please.

Help me, will you?

Okay, we'll leave without this,

but if you're shaky,

I'll come back for it.

-Okay?
-You hold me.

-I'll help you. But use this.
-Okay.

Great. Please be careful,
don't freak me out.

-I won't.
-[Víctor chuckles]

Okay.

-Let's go.
-Víctor.

What?

[sensual music playing]

In the Pacific region, the candidate
of the National Progressive Party,

Sonia Ramírez, is ahead only by two points

of her most direct rival,
Dr. Alexander Orduz.

-Hmm.
-Go ahead, back to you in the studio.

I wish she would win.

I like her, I think she's convincing.
It's a very good option.

I listened to her speech,

and she's going to invest money
in the Department of Culture

-to support the artists. Great.
-Well, yes.

Yes, maybe. If she wins, of course.
I don't think so.

Now that I know how far this as*h*le
can get, I don't think she'll win.

Per the bulletin, there's hope.
We have to wait.

Let's wait.

This guy will do anything, Jair.

He must have bought off the elections.

-Countess?
-What's up?

-Víctor's here, they're coming in.
-What's up?

-Nothing.
-Víctor.

-There's nothing.
-Ouch.

That's it. Slowly.

We're coming.

-We're almost there.
-What's up?

We're almost there. And a one, and a two,
and a three.

-[snare drumming]
-[all scream]

Welcome!

Betty! Betty!

Betty, Betty, Betty!

Hit it! Hit it! Hit it!

Careful with the girl! Careful!

[Latin music playing]

-[man in a singing voice] Hey, hey.
-[man whistles]

[indistinct chatter]

[musician hooting to music]

[Betty] Oh, no.

[Débora] I talked to Ismael.
They're keeping the agreement.

The party leaders gave the order

to vote for us as a group.

If that's the case,
we have more than 50,000 votes.

Have you talked to Henao?

-Henao?
-The lawyer, your friend.

After the trial, when he told me
about the fake video, why?

Tell them to get Víctor behind bars.

Ask what he needs to have him committed.

I'll get him whatever he needs.

[somber music]

NATIONWIDE UNITED FAMILY

Thank you for everything, Amalia.

Thank you, Jair.

Thank you to all
who have been watching over me

during this tiresome process.
Thank you, Víctor.

Although, I already thanked Víctor
in private.

[all] Oh!

[Amalia] Oh my! There you go!

-[all laugh]
-[Amalia] Kindergarten!

No, but really, thank you

for your support,
otherwise, I wouldn't be standing here.

That was you. You were brave enough
to stand on your own two feet.

But you gave me the strength,
don't take credit for it.

Well, I propose a toast.

-What do you think?
-[Amalia] Yes.

-Yes.
-A toast, to Víctor.

Because now we have to support him

just like you have supported me.

We'll let him know he's not alone.

[man] He's not.

-Cheers.
-Thank you.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

[reporter] We've just received

the latest bulletin, the 26th bulletin.

With a total of 63% of the votes

and a total of 9235 reporting tables,

the results are as follows.

The candidate from the
Nationwide United Family Party

has reached 4,542,897 votes.

The National Progressive Party's
candidate adds up to 1,498,520.

3,044,377 votes

put the National Progressive
Party's candidate in second place.

At this rate, it's likely there will be
no second round,

and that the next
president of the Colombians will be Orduz.

Ironic, isn't it?

That the only candidate
who was always on par in the polls

is getting those results.

And the necessary votes
not to face her in a second round.

What's ironic is that the future
president's wife doesn't congratulate him.

"You did a good job, Orduz.
Congratulations."

I'm not stupid.

-Do you think I'm going to fall for that?
-Oh, no.

No need to take it straight

but whisky's off the table,
he has ruined it for you.

You'll be investigated.

I love your innocence, Karen.

Laws are not for those who rule,
but for those who are ruled.

Cheers.

[suspenseful music]

The country has just written
a new page in its history

by choosing Alexander Orduz
as their new president.

Now they really let the wolf
into the sheep's den.

No, but people aren't stupid, man.

Those who voted for him need to realize

the sh*t they chose.

It's not about that, Mom.

The thing is, the guy's clever,
he knows how to blend in.

[man on TV] Long live the president!

It's an honor, Mr. President, of course.

-Okay.
-[crowd chants] Orduz, Orduz!

We'll see you at the ranch.

Of course.

[audience cheering and whistling]

Nothing to say?

-[man] Hurray!
-[crowd] Hurray!

From the bottom of my heart,
I hope you become a good president,

and work towards
the well-being of the country.

I will.

Because I have the best
First Lady by my side.

We still have to discuss
the First Lady thing.

You'd rather celebrate at a bar

than here with everybody, right?

-We're ready for the broadcast.
-Yes, we're coming. We're coming.

Can you drop that face for five minutes?

Show a little joy.
You're the president's wife.

[music sting]

Hi, Mom. I'm here.

Oh.

ALEXANDER ORDUZ
FOR PRESIDENT

[crowd cheering]

[whistles]

NATIONWIDE UNITED FAMILY

[crowd chants] Orduz, Orduz!

ALEXANDER ORDUZ
FOR PRESIDENT

The new president of the Colombians

has just entered the auditorium,

Dr. Alexander Orduz,
in the company of his family.

This is the worst scenario.

ALEXANDER ORDUZ
NEW ELECTED PRESIDENT

Or the opposite.

This job as president might
keep him so busy,

absorb him so much,

that he leaves Karen and Víctor alone.

If Karen was so important to the campaign,

she'll be more important
as the First Lady.

And we have to add the Department of Women
you want me to advise.

But now he has to be more cautious.
All eyes are on him.

Alexander as president will be
much more powerful than before.

Colombia, from now on, will change

to a country that won't allow corruption.

Where the family comes first.

A family without hunger.

A family at peace.

Because this
is where love-driven politics begins.

[crowd cheers]

Well, is it just me or Karen
is not as happy as she should be?

Maybe because now that her husband
is the president,

she's not getting much attention, huh?

Yes, maybe.

[Alexander on TV] …freedom and order.

Discipline and authority

will allow the entire society
to be unified.

[crowd cheers]

You gave your vote

to an independent party.

That party will work tirelessly
not to let you down.

[crowd cheers]

We are committed

to working tirelessly

to end corruption and political scheming

in government institutions.

We're going to have four years

that won't be enough

to get the country back on track.

However, we'll work tirelessly.

And we'll not only do
what's humanly possible,

but we will also lay the groundwork

so that the new generations
can carry on our legacy.

[knock at door]

I'm coming.

[crowd on TV] Orduz, Orduz!

Come in, Mr. Daniel. Come in, man.

Congratulations
on your candidate's victory.

Thank you.
Now it's time that he keeps his promise.

Keep his promise to whom?
The country or you?

I'm part of this country, aren't I?

I'm celebrating with my wife.

Why didn't you tell me that Kitty
suggested implementing the project here?

Well, Kitty assured me
that you guys could be here

even if you weren't a couple.

-Aren't you as mature as she is?
-We're not talking about maturity.

Daniel,

If I agreed to sponsor this project,
it's not to ruin your life.

I'm really interested in the project.

If you can't tell one from the other,
the doors are open.

The doors of my mom's house,
because this is her house.

Let's see,

we settled that matter a while ago.

You lost all rights to this property.

If I let you stay here,

it's so that we can sort things out
between us.

You should do the same, don't you think?

You don't make it easy, Fernán.

Look on the bright side.

Maybe you two get back together.

That's what I want for you, to be happy.

That's my spirit.

Well, get some rest.

[suspenseful music]

[crowd cheers]

Thank you. Thanks to my wife, Karen…

[crowd cheers]

…to my son, Sergio…

[crowd cheers]

…who have accompanied me

on this monumental task

of transforming Colombia.

And who will continue to accompany me,

illuminating my vigils,

knowing that I'm going to devote myself
to serving this country

so that we can
transform our Colombia together!

Very good!

[somber music]

[crowd cheers] Orduz, Orduz!

[crowd whistles and cheers]

All right.

May God have mercy on us, right?

This is so wrong.

All right, let's go.

Let's go, honey.

I'm going to stay here and work, okay?

Me too. Yes, I'll go with you.

Me too? No, ma'am.

No, you've had enough for today. Uh-uh.

You should rest. I'll walk you out.

We can't risk a relapse, dear.

-You wanted a manager?
-[Amalia chuckles]

-Serves you right.
-Well, I'll be right there.

-Okay, yes.
-Partner, see you tomorrow.

-[Víctor] Yes.
-Don't take long. I'll walk you out.

-[Víctor] Bye.
-Let's go, handsome.

Help me.

-Want to sit down?
-Yes.

You had your feet there.

Bummed about the new president, are you?

[sighs]

What really gets me is seeing
the wrong people succeed.

I don't like that.

I don't know how well a president can do.

They always start
with a bright face, and end up old, bald,

and wrinkled.

That's true, isn't it?

I wanted to talk to you
about the kiss I gave you at the entrance.

-Well…
-Talk about what?

There's nothing to talk about.
It's all good.

No, but…

It's not the first time I've tried
to kiss you lately.

But…

it's the first time you haven't
stopped me.

And I know.

I know you're still not over Karen.

But also know that I'm not indifferent
to you.

Am I wrong?

Betty,

seeing you on the floor,

with a b*llet in your stomach,

was one of the worst things that happened
to me.

Just imagining…

You're very important to me.

Much more than you can imagine.

Look, Víctor, I can't compete
with a memory.

And I don't want
to keep begging for love, really.

It just makes me angry that
you're still suffering for a woman…

who's not worth it.

You deserve to be happy.

And so do I.

That's why I've kept insisting,

even though you've
told me everything you've told me.

Because I know that deep down

there's hope and…

I also know that you feel that.

-[Amalia] Let's go, dear.
-Yes, I'm coming.

I don't want you to do anything
because you feel you have to

or because you feel pressure.

I mean, this has changed me a lot.

You don't know when you're going to die.

And I want to enjoy every second
I have left in this life.

If you want to hold on to the memory
of Karen, go ahead.

But I won't be there, Víctor.

I'm going to move forward.

Think about it.

[Amalia] Let's go.

I have to go.

-I'll go with you.
-No, I can do it.

Don't worry.

We're evaluating the agenda.

Don't worry.

We are going to work very hard.

-Alexander.
-That's right.

-Huh?
-Excuse me.

Please.

It's late. Sergio and I are going home.

No.

We are going to…

They're inviting me,

insisting that we go to the party's
headquarters to celebrate.

-Shall we?
-I'm tired.

Sergio fell asleep in the car
and has school tomorrow.

What else is new?

When are you not tired?

I want you to be with me. I need you.

That celebration is for you and your team.

I won't be missed.

Besides, it'll look bad if Sergio
falls asleep on a chair.

And I don't have the strength
to keep pretending

that we're a perfect couple.

No.

I understand. Don't worry. Um…

Go home.

Get some rest.

I have to tend to people.
I have to sacrifice myself, okay?

Okay. We'll talk later. Go.

Very good.

What's on your mind?

-About?
-The divorce.

[dramatic music]

Is the phone still wiretapped?

Yes.

I need the recordings.

Not the transcripts.

I want the original audio files.

[Alexander] Gentlemen! Who's the winner?

Orduz!

What are we doing now?

Within 12 hours
of the presidential election

being held,

the election monitoring platform
has reported a rise in complaints

concerning the purchase of votes
in various districts.

Election authorities reported

the ill*gal funds distributed
for financing…

-Here's your tea.
-Thanks.

…of Alexander Orduz,
the newly elected president,

and his main opposition, Sonia Ramirez.

The party presidents
haven't made a statement,

-but we'll keep an eye out…
-Hello, Claudita.

Pour me a coffee, damn it.

Has Sergio left for school?

Yes, Julián's parents took him today.

They congratulated you.

They were surprised and very happy

that you decided to stay at home

instead of going to the Palace
during your term.

I'm glad his friend can come to visit.

Are they good people?

I'm leaving. Meeting with the president.

Alexander, we need to talk.

-Claudita.
-Ma'am?

-Can you take a break, please?
-Okay. Yes, ma'am.

Alexander, we need to talk
about our separation.

When're we going to make it public?

What're we going to tell the press?

And above all,
how are we going to tell Sergio?

There's nothing to tell him.

You and I are not going to split up.

No.

You and I had an agreement.

When you became president,
you would leave me alone

and sign the divorce papers.

You gave me two conditions.

That I wouldn't talk publicly
about what you did to me

and that I wouldn't look for Víctor again.

Did you do it?

Going to the clinic was a mistake,

but I already apologized.

That's it?

You think an apology can get
you out of this?

It was an impulse, Alexander.

Besides, it didn't get worse.

On the bright side,

Víctor told me he didn't want
to see me again.

-That should have eased your mind
-Not really.

Not really, because it turns out
you asked your brother

to represent Víctor at the trial.

And I explained to you why.

Look.

Listen to me.

At least the elections are close,
so I'm getting a divorce.

Do you think he'll
keep his promise to you?

I can expect anything from Alexander.

I highly doubt that
Alexander will give you a divorce…

-You tapped my phone?
-No. Wait.

Wait, here's the good part.

The best part. There it is.

When he becomes president,

the first thing he'll do

is to get the anti-corruption law rolling.

And I'm trying to figure out
what I can come up with.

At least, for you not to be the first one
to use that fancy law.

I'll do my best to protect Sergio.

You told me that Lidia was the only one
who knew about this.

And it turns out that your brother
is against my government plan

so his sister doesn't spend
the rest of her life in jail.

How long have
you been listening to my calls?

How did you get a wiretap court order?

Illegally? Like all else?

What country do you live in?

They wiretap magistrates illegally,
nothing happens.

Do you think anyone
cares about your privacy?

What worries me the most
and what I ask myself

is whether your word means anything,
to me or Víctor.

Because he was very clear:

he didn't want you by his side
or for you to pursue him,

but you were there,

so desperate.

Look,

here it is. [mumbles]

That's it. Here it is.

Look.

[Víctor] Karen, didn't we have a deal?

You stay away from me,
I stay away from you.

I don't understand
why you can't keep your word.

I don't want you to meddle, please.

Go back to your life and leave me here
alone with my problems.

I don't need you.

You asked me to help you become president,

that's where you're right now.

You asked me not to see Víctor

and if you've listened to my calls
judiciously, you know I haven't.

You still love him, don't you?

My feelings are irrelevant.

Not to me.

I care about what you feel.

And you told Esteban

and he told you that Débora and Henao
knew each other from before.

Right, and when I found out about Henao,
I told you.

If I wanted to use it against you,
I would have.

Alexander, I just want you
to leave me alone.

Give me the divorce, and
I can go with Sergio in peace…

No, no, no.

You and Sergio are mine.

Why do you want us?

We're just chips
in a game you already won.

Because you… you…

Can't you get that through your head?

You…

stay by my side

because I won't let you be happy.

Because you

don't deserve to be happy with anyone

until I see you there on your knees

begging for my forgiveness,

begging me to end your life
with my own hands.

Did you hear me or not?

You're a psychopath, you're sick.

You idiot!

You're an idiot!

What do you think?

That I'll let you go?
That I'll let you escape?

Please!

I'm such an "idiot" to have married
a guy like you!

-Idiot? Idiot?
-[screams]

Not the face.

No. Look.

Deep down, you must have feelings
for me, right?

You're so aggressive.

That's exactly why I won't let you go.

You're not leaving.

I'm not afraid of you.

Because you still don't know who I am.

You still don't understand

what I'm capable of.

-I'm also capable of a lot of things.
-I know. That's why I'm telling you.

Make the guidelines
for the Department of Women.

Look for a replacement at the foundation.
I need you here.

Focused.

Let's calm down.

Let's calm down,

otherwise, it's clear
how this ends, right?

You go to jail, like this. [snaps fingers]

Not until you pass that damn law
you've promoted so much.

Oh, yeah?

You're not going to jail?

Is that what you think?

I'm setting up a process for you…
[snaps fingers] like this.

And they'll take you there right away
to testify. And what will they say?

"Mr. President,
we need to know what is going on here.

What do you think?" And what will I say?

"She is a traitor, a rat."

"She's the worst thing this society has."

While they sentence you,

I go, call my contacts

and you'll end up in a cell block
accompanied by scum

and the worst of this country,
the traitors, all of them.

Any jail will be better than this one.

Yes, you're all determined in there.

And you don't care what I do
with your son when he stays by my side?

He's your son, too.

A son I never asked for.

[music sting]

From the beginning, you said,
"No, I'm taking care of myself."

And now, looking at your records,

I'm not sure.

Why don't you do something?

Talk to Amalia, the nosy old lady.

And tell her, "Keep your mouth shut."

"Don't tell anyone about Víctor and I."

I don't know what it is, I don't care.
I forgive you.

But you stay here, because if you don't,

he'll not be the only one paying
for all this,

your son will too.

[dramatic music]

[exhales]

[Débora] Good morning.

Is everything okay?

-Nothing unexpected.
-Did you talk about the divorce?

Divorce?

What divorce?
No one is getting divorced here.

Karen will still be a risk to you
and your presidency.

You're my presidential advisor,

not my relationship counselor.

Don't get confused.

[dramatic music]

[suspenseful music]

Oh.

[scoffs]

Well, Betty has to testify.

She's nervous,
but I'm preparing her for that.

Do you have any other witnesses?

No. None that want to talk right now.

Doctor,

It's Dr. Karen. She
needs to talk to you urgently.

-Why didn't she call on my cell phone?
-She didn't call here from hers, either.

Hello?

Alexander wiretapped my phone.

Oh, no.

I don't know how long he's been
recording and listening to my calls,

but it's very likely

that yours, Lidia's and Víctor's phones
have been wiretapped.

We have to be wary of everything.

He told you?

He showed me.
He showed me recordings, Esteban.

He knows you know he's blackmailing me.

He knows you're planning

to go against the law he wants to enforce.

And he said he'll never give me a divorce.

He'll make my life impossible.

I can't believe it.

Look.

Please,

don't call from your cell phone

or from the office, anything
that has to do with me or Víctor.

Please, tell Lidia.

-Where are you?
-At home.

I'm going to the foundation. We can't
talk about anything other than work.

That monster could have installed
microphones everywhere.

No, don't worry.
Ciro and I will take care of that now.

Thank you.

Esteban,

Alexander is going to destroy Víctor
in that trial.

I'm afraid of what he might do to Sergio.

What do you want to do?
We can find a way to go for him.

No. No, it could be worse.

We need evidence, Esteban.

Evidence to prove what he's doing,

so we can put him in jail
and he can't hurt anyone else.

Yes, we have to do that before
he becomes president,

otherwise, he'll be untouchable.

Esteban, this is too much.

I swear, I feel I'm going crazy.

-Do you want me to pick you up?
-No, I called a taxi.

-I'll see you there.
-[Esteban] I'll wait for you here.

Okay.
