BETTY LA FEA, THE STORY CONTINUES

HUGO LOMBARDI
COPYING FILES

STEALING IDEAS
IN FASHION AT ECOMODA

"Ecomoda, thieves, plagiarism."

They're calling us thieves
even within our own walls!

Hugo Lombardi
stole Ángel Pulido's collection?

And I won't even tell you
what's happening on social media!

From Ángel Pulido?

"Lombardi, from tailor to disaster."

The situation is very complicated,
but let's try to keep a cool head.

"He shouldn't have done that." Oh, my God!

"Stealing ideas,
the new trend at Ecomoda."

-What?
-"Canceled?"

The one who has to clear things up here
is Hugo Lombardi!

But princess didn't even
bother to show her face.

Beatriz, is the Holding-Serrano
alliance at risk?

That's why things need to be
cleared up quickly.

TODAY

THE TOWER

WHEN EVERYTHING'S SHAKING,
SEE WHAT'S LEFT STANDING.

Girls!

-What?
-What?

THIEVES

Oh, no! They're beating
Mr. Hugo Lombardi to a pulp!

If only it was just Mr. Hugo,
but it's also Ecomoda.

Seems like we're no longer
trending in fashion.

We're trending on social media!

-Excuse me, I have to take this.
-No, no! Betty, wait.

You need to take a plane today
and find Serrano

so they don't cancel our tour.

Excuse me, Nicolás.

My love…

Nicolás!

What, what happened?

What is it?

-The nanny called me!
-Is the baby okay?

-The baby!
-What?

-Steffy.
-What's wrong with Steffy?

She won't eat her baby food.

Oh, come on.

My love, pick up!

You're the only one who knows
where my computer is.

He's fixes everything in the house.

But well, flew, flew! He flew away!

Help me find my computer.

It's the one with the pink case.

I think Ángel is becoming
more of a devil every day.

Don't you agree, Freddy?

It's become absolutely clear

that he's the material author
of this intellectual theft.

And since this idiot can't seem to reason,
he's going to fall back on valerian.

What's strange to me is
that I always leave it here.

You know what? That's…

Oh, that divine Ángel!
He put it in the safe for me.

He's always thinking
of what's best for me.

Hugo, excuse me.
Did you give the code to Ángel?

My God! He gave him the key to his heart,
he surely gave him the code to the safe.

What an idiot! He's a damaged designer.

One, two, three, four… And there,
that's it! It has to be here…

What is it?

I've been robbed!

All my designs have been stolen!

All the original sketches from all
of my collections have been stolen!

-And the computer?
-That too!

Man!

There it is, don't you see?
Hugo, it's obvious.

You have to understand.
It may his first name, but he is no angel.

You need to understand
that he is represented

by the lawyer who came in yesterday.

Hold on.

What are you trying to tell me?

That that man is capable
of doing something like this to me?

-Yes.
-Yes.

And that means that he, this man,
is not in love with me?

-No!
-No!

Which means that he used me?

-Yes.
-Yes.

Don't touch me with that thing!

That's disgusting!

You touch me, Armando, here.

Closer.

-Caspirola!
-Hello, young lady.

Oh, man! Someone went a little overboard
with the cologne.

Is Mom okay?

-Did something happen to Betty?
-What?

Well, no, but why else would you be here?

To see your mom!

Well, she left kind of mysteriously.

Okay, if you don't mind, go change
and meet me back here again.

She left the meeting very mysteriously.

Where was she going?

Tell me a little bit more about yourself.
What are you looking for?

Well, the thing is that my friend Esteban

recommended that
I start a therapy process with you.

Did he tell you that my therapies
are not conventional?

Look at this beauty!

Don't worry, you can move.

That's exactly what's happening to me.

I'm feeling paralyzed.

I'm having a hard time making decisions,

and life right now is
demanding that I make them.

I'm always prioritizing others.

And whenever I try to think about myself…

I can't. My head won't stop.

All the problems at the office,
at Ecomoda, come to me.

My daughter Mila,
Armando, the Hugo scandal…

I'm always prioritizing others
and not myself.

Okay, Betty, calm down, calm down.

If you calm down, they'll calm down too.

I feel pathetic!

If you believe that,

others will too.

I've never done therapy,
but I think that I need it.

You came here thinking of yourself.

You took the first step,

and the opposite of courage
is not cowardice, Betty,

it's conformity.

I feel like I need to be happy.

Then be happy.

Betty, what are you doing?

-Is it hot in here, or is it just me?
-No!

Betty!

Betty, please, calm down! Breathe.

They're not going to hurt you.
Betty, please!

Inhale, let's breathe.

There, Betty, let's breathe together.

Betty… Betty, breathe!

Betty, calm down!

Oh, no!

She definitely needs therapy.

And why not, my high-definition candy?

Why not?

Around how much would the rent
for such a palace be?

Oh, my delicious coochie-coochie!

There's no rent to pay here.

Can't you see that I bought this palace
for my king and his queen?

What a cruel way to hurt
my fragile masculinity.

I want to tell you, Ms. Fuentes,
Ms. Capitalist, I can be anything…

but a kept man.

What do you mean?

I don't understand.

I bought this palace for both of us.

I'd rather be dead
than lose the sphincters of my dignity.

And if we are going to live together,
it will be in a place I can afford.

-And if you don't like that, this is it.
-No, no, my coochie-coochie! Come on,

this is going to be our little love nest!

That's not the marital image
I have in my nuptial hypothalamus.

I want our love to be a true love,

a real love.

Not a… love montage.

Idiot!

You have the right to be poor,
but not conformist!

What you are lacking is focus!

And you, what you are lacking
is a locksmith!

Because if that door breaks,
who's gonna fix it?

Just what I needed.
Having to come here to this…

That's not my motorcycle.

What if he was somehow drugged?

That happens to us a lot, in our comm…

-Really?
-Of course.

It always happens to us!

That must be why he's doing things
he doesn't usually do right now,

because… Ángel can be
whatever you want him to be,

but he's not like this.

The only thing I don't understand
is why he won't reply

to my messages.

-And he's not going to reply.
-What did you say?

What did you say?
Why are you looking at each other?

-He's not going to reply.
-Why not?

Because Ángel deleted all his photos
with you on social media.

What?

All of them…

He deleted…

He deleted our New York photos?

He deleted the photos
of our trip to Dubai?

Oh, no! He deleted the photos
of the Borromean Islands!

All of them, Hugo.

Oh, no.

Look, you two didn't look
that good together.

In fact, you looked really old
next to him.

Can you do me a favor?

If you're going to pour salt in my wound,

let it be pink, crystallized,
and Himalayan!

Huguito!

Huguito!

Huguito, sorry, but I don't have…

-I don't have…
-What?

My battery died.

I have the latest news,

the trending topic.

I mean, everyone has seen this video.

Except you, Huguito.

Look.

No, it's not fair.

It's not fair for admiration
to be abused like this.

It's not fair
that I gave Hugo absolutely everything

and trusted him so much,
and he stole from me like this.

And that's why, my friends,
today I want to raise a complaint.

Today I want to raise my voice loudly
to tell you

that powerful people won't ever step on

those of us who are just starting out.

Join me.

Join me, please.

-Okay, that's enough.
-My hands are cut off.

-Poor thing!
-What a shame, Huguito!

Oh, no.

Betty!

Where were you?

I'll tell you later.

-What happened to you?
-What happened?

Mariana, I need you
to gather everyone here.

I have an important announcement to make.

Sure, sure, Betty, but… are you okay?

-Yes, yes, call them.
-Okay.

Really, is everything okay?

Yes, I'll tell you later.

-Mommy, I was looking for you at the…
-Yes, darling.

-What happened to you?
-Nothing serious.

Are you okay?
Hey, what's wrong with my mom?

What happened?

Huguito!

Huguito, Betty has injected her…

lips.

What's going on here?

Betty, what…

You're like… Betty Jolie.

Calm down, I'm fine.

Oh, Betty, it's great that you're staying,

now you can help us with the podcast!

And with Nicolás!
Can you tell he's been hitting the bottle?

I wanted to tell you about a conference…

I can show you my ideas for Ecomoda.

Betty, they made fun of me!

It's just that Hugo won't let me
propose anything.

I don't know how to reason with
someone of Freddy's vintage.

A reversed card came up. You should leave.

I don't intend to be a kept man.

Beatriz, the house feels empty
without you.

-Couples need to talk.
-My queen! We must save the hive!

-Pati won't give me anything!
-Let's mate!

-I'll pollinate! My honey crystallized!
-You have to…

I need to hand over the position.

I think it's lovely
that you're staying here, Betty.

I want to use that time…

That way, you could be
the godmother at our wedding.

Stop it!

It has not been an easy decision.

But since Armando and Marcela
have done an incredible job

over the last year at Ecomoda,

I've decided…

to prioritize myself.

-And I wanted to announce that…
-Why's the lawyer making that face?

Mr. Hugo!

Listen, folks, help me out here,
make yourselves useful. Mr. Hugo.

Mr. Hugo! Mr. Hugo!

-Everybody duck!
-Thank you, sir.

-Thank you very much.
-I'm here.

Now, stand up.

Let's see, my dear genius,
answer this question.

Have the police already taken
your statement?

Yes, I've already filed a report
of what was stolen from my safe

which were the original sketches
for my "Tribute" collection,

as well as my computer.

But we have not been able to prove

that Hugo made those sketches
because his computer was hacked

and they had access to all of his emails.

But, sir, the only thing I'm sure of

is that it wasn't Ángel!

Oh, come on, my friend!

Listen, sir.

This is Mr. Pulido's complaint

for what he claims is the theft
of his designs. Here you go.

There's your damned fallen angel.

-How much are we talking about?
-Look.

A lot of money.

It's a lot.

Let's go to the meeting room.

-Okay.
-Let's go.

-Where are you all going?
-Where?

-Who are you yelling at?
-Them!

-Make them work!
-Get to work!

What he said!

You know what? Tell that Pulido guy
that we'll see him court!

No, that's too hackneyed.

-I was overacting a little, wasn't I
-A lot. Yes, sir.

Betty!

If you could… Betty!

Let's move on.

Well, after listening to Sánchez

and given the seriousness
of the situation,

it is best for me to stay.

Sounds good to me.
You have my full support.

I know we'll be able to sort out
the whole tour issue and this man, but…

I want you to know everything
will be okay and I'll back you.

Thank you, Armando.

Betty…

What's wrong with your mouth?

Well, that's a long story.

-I had to go to…
-Betty takes over the presidency.

And she's not going away.

We can get married and officially
officialize our official things.

Pascual, please. Can't you read the room?

-We have to postpone the wedding.
-What?

Who said anything about postponing?

No, it's already been paid for!

Don't even think about it.
I'm getting married for sure.

Preferably to you.

Personal matters
should be discussed in private.

Oh, jeez!

We're going to get through this,

but we have to stick together.

-Yes.
-Marcela, please, suppliers.

They're concerned about the situation,
protecting their brands.

-Press.
-Only bad reports, Betty.

We're like this country's Congress.

Mom, it's bad on social media too.
They haven't stopped making memes.

Hugo is being canceled,

and that makes people
lose trust in the brand

Armando, what do we know about our sales?

They're going down.

There are protests
at all of our points of sale.

Well, Mr. Sánchez has already informed us

that the counterclaim against Ángel Pulido
has been filed.

A long and difficult lawsuit
that could seriously affect

Ecomoda and Hugo awaits us.

Huguito…

is there something you want to say?

Betty, listen,

these lawsuits are a huge financial drain.

We could even go bankrupt.
We need to be careful.

Yes, I agree with Nicolás.

But besides the counterclaim,
we have to do something. Something else.

Yes. What, though?

Is your motorcycle downstairs?

The girl's always steady.

She's never unsteady.

I want you to get on your motorcycle
and go to wherever Ángel Pulido is.

And follow him to the ends of the earth.

-You mean…
-I want to know…

who's behind Ángel.

Happiness in a couple,
is it an urban myth?

Let's see, let's see, we're listening.

Is there life after bed?

Can one mix horizontal labor
and labor horizons

Yes or no?

The emotional fiasco
of a friend and designer

invites us to reflect.

It's very easy to get confused
about our own feelings,

but it's easier to play
with someone else's feelings.

Because at the end of the day,

the difference between loving and lying
is just two letters.

Hey, Microlax,

don't you think that Sofía
has a very interesting voice?

No, I don't.

Every time she talks to me,
it's only to scold me.

No, for me it's like…
listening to an angel from heaven.

She makes me feel things.

Stop right there, 1800. Stop, because

thinking of you as a sexual being

is the most disgusting thing
I've ever heard in my life.

Shut up, you bloodsucker!

The devil may be a pig, but her…

She…

She makes my mind race.

Hey, old man! Please.

Erotic dreamer,

why don't you go daydream elsewhere
and let me work?

And today's dessert, ladies and gentlemen,

will be sweeter than usual.

Let's see what Mariana's
tarot cards tell us.

Oh, Marce, what a terrible crisis.

Although I've felt this way
for a long time, Marce.

I'm very hurt due to my postpartum,

because I'm practically a single mother.

Really? Come here.

He doesn't arouse anything in me at all.

Like the other day, I woke up
in the middle of the night…

Marce,

I thought I was seeing Pachito's ghost.

It was horrible, Marce.

-Good afternoon, Ms. Marcela.
-Good afternoon.

Ms. Marcela.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

-Good afternoon, Ms. Marcela.
-Sofía.

Yes, Mr. Hermes?

I listen your program faithfully.
It's very good.

Thank you very much,
but it's not only mine.

We all do it together.

No, of course. It's just that your voice
is like a balm for my ears.

And if you would allow me to treat you…

Treat? Treat.

I know that things have been tense here
at Ecomoda the last few days,

but I also know a way to relax the body.

-Right.
-And that is by dancing. Dancing tango.

Have you ever done that before?

"Dear family and friends,

the time has come to get off…"

Boss!

Boss, so…

-Are you ready? Let's see.
-Yes.

-Everything okay?
-I think so.

Nicolás, thank you. None of this
would have been possible without you.

That's what friends are for.

I had to hurry because you moved up
the plan we had a year ago, though.

So am I getting ahead of myself
with this decision?

I think it's a little rushed.

It took us 52 years.
That's nothing, right?

Don't worry,
you never make decisions lightly.

It's not going to be that hard to say,

don't worry.

-Oh, my God. I'm nervous.
-No.

-Oh, Nicolás.
-It's for the nerves.

There you go.

-Good.
-Good morning.

-Hi, Mom.
-Take a seat.

-Thank you, kiddo.
-Yes.

All that accumulated genetic material
came out, didn't it?

What a mystery, Beatriz!

I asked you to come
because I wanted to tell you something.

I wanted to say…

"Dear family and friends,

a train is a great metaphor

when we are talking
about the journey through life's seasons."

"The time has come for me to get off
at this station

to embark on a new journey."

She is going to tell us
something bad, isn't she?

I don't know,
but that train is going slowly…

During the year I was traveling,
I realized that…

that personal space

is very important.

Although the space is mine,
it's also yours.

What's another's is yours, right?

What's yours is mine,
what's mine is yours, but…

So, like, in the same way,
but in the opposite direction?

Okay, okay.

"These are…"

-These are…
-The keys.

The keys…

To my new…

To my new…

House.

-House?
-House?

At 52 years of age, I have decided

that I'm going to live alone.

-Beatriz!
-What?

ALONE, BY HERSELF?

I'm so proud of you! Congratulations!

I'm so proud of you!

-Congratulations, Mom.
-Thank you, darling.

You're going to have your own room
for sleepovers only.

Betty, I don't get it.
When did you buy a house?

I had already decided,
I just went ahead with it.

But why, Beatriz Aurora?

Does my house smell bad or something?

-Life today is very dangerous today.
-Oh, Grandpa.

Remember, electrical plugs, gas, thieves,

-artificial intelligence…
-Dad, it's not that big a deal.

This is something I need.

Sure, you, but what about us?

-I mean…
-Grandpa, come.

-No. You're not taking me into account.
-Grandpa.

Really?

This is a very important change
for my mom,

and everyone needs to be happy for her.

-We have to support her.
-I see the writing on the wall.

This is a very important decision.

-What's going on?
-Stop, Mr. Hermes. Breathe.

-What's wrong?
-No.

What is going on here?
It turns out, I'm in the way.

What do you mean?

Condemned to ostracism by my own blood!

This is how the filthy devil repays
those who serve him well.

-You have to let the little bird fly away!
-Or the big bird, Mr. Hermes.

-Calm down.
-Laugh all you want. You're an accomplice.

-Mr. Hermes, are you okay?
-Lie down with dogs…

-Lie down with dogs…
-Get it off your chest!

So that's a no on the tango?

Are you thinking
of going to live in that house

alone, really alone?

Well,

yes,

I think it's great
that you bought a house.

Congratulations, Betty.

Sincerely,

Armando Mendoza.

My mom is very brave,

and together we are going
to organize a housewarming

for the single lady's new house.

-Because Betty's becoming independent!
-No!

Bravo!

I love this!

Here comes Beatriz Aurora Pinzón Solano,
independent woman!

-Bravo!
-Bravo, Betty!

-Bravo, Betty!
-Betty.

Betty, this is wonderful!
I'm so proud of you.

Girls, this means
we have new headquarters!

Oh, yes!

-Long live empowered women!
-Long live!

Thank you, girls.
I can't wait for you to come visit.

Of course!

Oh, Betty, if you need any help
decorating your house,

I've become an expert.

I think we have our next topic.

Independence after 50.
A topic for the podcast.

-Sounds good.
-It's hardly been talked about.

-So cool.
-So important.

There's something
that I've been thinking about

that has me very worried, Freddy.

It's that she's going to move
to a place by herself.

-Do you get it? A house.
-Yes.

We have to do something, take care of her.
And I was thinking, who could do that?

My right hand,

my left hand, my foot, my everything.

Why don't you get on your motorcycle

and follow her…
No… Watch her, so we can stay calm.

And keep me posted.

Armando, I don't understand.

I mean,

do you want me to follow Betty
or the devilish Ángel?

I'm saying this because I'd be abandoning

my duties as a sales advisor with Ecomoda.

And on the other hand,

I also have to resolve
my pseudo-sentimental situation

with that wild capitalist, Aura María.

Believe me, my progressive heart
is also destroyed.

-But who is your boss?
-Betty.

-Mr. Armando.
-Armando.

-"Mr."
-Armando.

-"Mr."
-Armando.

Okay! Look, I'm giving you a chance,

something so you can grow, so you…
Speaking of capitalism,

so you can make more money.

Bring me information,
and I'll double that.

The offer. I'll double the offer!

What do I have to do?

Hey, Aída, call Mancho.

What is it?

Mancho, I can tell you that Betty
just entered an unmarked location.

Very strange.

Okay. Give me…

Hold on a second, Freddy. Don't hang up.

Voice mail system…

She's not answering, Freddy.

So I want you to become her shadow.

Relax, Betty.

It's just sensations.

Take a deep breath… and connect with that.

You can make noise if you want.

Good.

And I surrendered myself to a company
full of Valencias and Mendozas

not being a Valencia or Mendoza.

Well, I did surrender myself to a Mendoza.

We're not talking about that though.

What are you feeling?

I feel that…

Ecomoda is like a black hole…

where…

nothing will ever bloom.

Not even love.

See how wonderful that is, Betty.

We've reached the point we wanted.

Love.

Aída, call Mancho.

This is as clear as day…

I'm… Mancho?

Mancho, listen.

As your anger management coach,

I need you
to take this information very calmly.

Betty just had a close encounter of sorts.

I'm absolutely sure it was
with the guy from the day

when thing that happened, happened.

Marge…

Marge, I'm all screw…

What's wrong now?

It's not just now.
It's everything that's going on.

Why did Ángel do this to me?

Why? I just loved him so much.

I love him. And he loves me. I'm sure…

that he loves me too.

Why is he doing this to me? Son of…

You know what I want? Do you?

I want to hibernate with a bear
or spend seven years in Tibet.

You know what? Donate me to one of those
one-way manned flights to Pluto.

I want to go there. Oh, Marge!

Don't cry, honey! No…

Your activity break starts now! Come on.

Stand there.

Stand there. Come on. Do you remember?

Two to the right,
two to the left, and turn.

Two to the right, two to the left,
and turn.

One, two, three.

-Hello.
-Hello.

-You okay?
-You okay?

-Yes.
-No.

Didn't you check your phone?

I kept calling you, but you didn't answer.

Why aren't you checking your phone?

-I called nonstop.
-Excuse me?

This is not going to work, Betty.

It won't work because, I mean…

we were married for a long time,
loved each other a long time.

There was passion.
That's not why we broke up.

I can't be your friend.

It's not that I don't want to.

We are friends, but it doesn't come
naturally to me, understand?

It's difficult for me to say,

"The boss is late, our president

comes in with her hair wet,
the lady of the house, the single lady,

has her hair all wet."

What can you do? That's life.

"The single lady of the house…"

Are you jealous, Armando?

No.

Should I be?

Should I be?

Should I be jealous?

Because you're free, and I'm also free.

Each of us has our things…

What if there's an emergency here?

What if something happens to the girl
and you don't answer?

Armando, don't play dumb,
I know you sent Freddy to follow me.

Freddy?

Freddy? Why would I send Freddy?

You're independent. You do your own thing.

Tell me it wasn't you. Tell me.

Tell me.

Tell me.

What do you want me to tell you?

But what can I say?

That you weren't the one who sent Freddy.

It wasn't me.

Excuse me.

Mila!

Betty.

I'm not lying to you, Betty.

if you think I'm lying to you,

which I swear to God that I'm not,
then let a ton of clothes fall on me.

No! Something's going to happen to me!

What are you trying to do, k*ll me?

-My God! What happened? The apocalypse?
-Help!

Huguito's gone crazy,
and he's throwing away all the clothes

because people are returning them.

Armando, why do you have
a bra on your head?

I put it on my head because I want
to dance the Mambo, Patricia.

Liar.

ON THE NEXT EPISODE

I need you to take advantage
of this Big Apple trip

so you can win back
the gorgeous ex-ugly one.

Nice to meet you. I'm Camila.

Román Duarte. How do you do?

I'll go change and meet you
back here in half an hour.

Is everything ready?

Are you sure of what you're going to do?

New York, work your magic.

BETTY LA FEA, THE STORY CONTINUES
