01x11 - El pasado me persigue

[bunniefuu]

You shouldn't have come, Elías.

Should I have waited forever instead?

Don't make me beg. Come with me.

No. I don't like this one bit.

It's just because I trust you.

Do I look like I can't be trusted?

Anyway, let's go.

[sighs]

[car engine turns]

Some big fish must be behind all this.

Big enough to keep your firefighter friend

in jail for 25 years.

I'm telling you he's innocent.

Right.

In my line of work, everybody is guilty

until proven otherwise.

Still,

being innocent doesn't pay.

Picture that cover, "Innocent." Bah!

The culprit was right under our noses,

and we never saw it.

Make a right turn here.

Aren't you gonna tell me

where we're going?

God damn it. Just do as you're told.

Here?

Unless you want us to go to Garibaldi,

but it's safer here.

[Elías speaks indistinctly]

I want justice, but I also want to forget.

They're not mutually exclusive.

That's my job.

We journalists decide

what's to be forgotten and what's not.

The agenda is run by the brainiacs.

What about justice?

That's administered by them.

Relax. They won't bite.

What you're giving me is in here?

Don't get ahead of yourself.

Patience is its own reward.

Here.

Are you gonna count it?

I'm old-school, man. I keep my word.

I'm still doing it.

In that case,

I hope that helps you to solve

the station's financial hardships.

We'll take care of the rest later.

Let's go, hurry up.

I just can't understand you journalists.

Don't even try. We're merely the tools.

The really dangerous ones are out there.

Let's go. There's stuff I gotta do

besides wasting my time here with you.

A NETFLIX SERIES

[Olivia] Poncho!

What's going on?

The Butcher was here.

He left that.

I don't know what to do. I'm calling

Leonora, but she won't pick up.

She's missing. I told you she was a victim

and was being followed, too.

We're going to open it.

Everybody please stand back.

Sure. Come.

What happened?

Leonora?

Where were you?

Having dinner with a friend.

What happened?

I was calling you like crazy!

Why didn't you pick up?

[metal clangs]

It's a dog.

What?

[Poncho] But

Of course, it was a threat.

The Butcher was right in my doorstep

and put up the same show as with Betty

in McAllen with that metal barrel.

They've k*lled her.

Do you realize

it couldn't have been Ricardo?

He was with us at Fabio's opening.

"The Butcher" isn't just one person.

I'm sure they're accomplices.

They must work together.

Didn't Daniel ever mention the possibility

that was the case?

[Leonora] Yeah.

It's a theory by Elías Solorzano,

but your brother never believed in it.

What?

He said so.

He didn't trust him. He had suspicions.

What kind of suspicions?

Maybe he wasn't really honest,

maybe he was a snitch.

Did he believe Elías worked

with The Butcher?

And the Reynosa Police Department.

[Olivia] Poncho.

Do you realize everything Betty said

in McAllen was true?

Ricardo is innocent.

Someone very powerful is behind all this.

[Poncho]

I want you to sleep here tonight.

Sure.

I don't want you

to be exposed out there. Okay?

Sure.

And you should at least tell me the next

time you have dinner with a friend!

Or at least text me or answer my calls.

I'm sorry. You left me alone

at the opening. I didn't realize you

You know what? I have to be alone

and think things through.

Poncho!

Didn't you listen? He wants to be alone.

Are you sure

you were having dinner with a friend?

Or were you with the guy

who just dropped you off?

I want to be alone, too.

Lavender essence to sleep well.

A five-star experience at a family

boarding house. The best of two worlds.

Why are you doing this?

I don't know.

Maybe because

hosting is my calling.

But You've done much more

than anyone else for me.

Because you're worth it.

Someone should put their money on you.

I wouldn't be so sure.

I've screwed up many times.

But it's never too late

to make things right.

I swear I will pay you back

for everything you're doing for me.

Do you know how you could?

By being happy

and leaving the past behind.

The thing is my past haunts me.

In that case, stand up to it,

tell it a few things, and keep running

so it doesn't catch you.

Okay

Good night. Let me know

if you need anything.

Sleep tight.

Good night.

[sing-song] I'm so hungry!

Honey, be quiet. Ricardo's sleeping.

[in English] Love is in the air.

[in Spanish] Don't speak to me

in languages I don't know!

Let me put it this other way.

Are you so much into him

that you watch over his sleep?

Is it that noticeable?

[chuckles]

That's the thing about being in love.

Even your eyes give you away.

I see. You're in love with Ricardo, too.

Easy, boss. Elder men I leave to you.

Oh, Son

Don't tell me

I never thought

I'd feel that for somebody.

Gerardo is everything

I've ever dreamed of.

Can't you dream of a g*y guy,

or somebody who's single?

You don't choose

who you fall in love with.

And if I could choose

I'd still choose him.

[Daniel] "Although we've been writing to

each other for some time now,

you'll understand I can't call you 'Dad'.

This has been weird for me, new.

I finally begin to fill a void in my life.

The big question regarding my origins.

I guess that's why I became a journalist

and basically live where I work.

I was obsessed with truth."

It's cute how you write

about you to your dad.

It sucks to be the son of a psycho.

We should understand psychos. Will you

tell him you know why he's in jail?

I wish you wrote a letter to me, too.

We will never need letters

because we'll never be

away from each other.

What if you have to cover

some w*r over water in 2028?

[Daniel] Writing keeps getting harder by

the day. How can I write

to a guy that k*lled my own mom?

Anyway

It's sent.

Now what?

You go to McAllen and meet him in person.

I'm not ready for that.

What if I come with you?

Would that make things easier?

[Ricardo] "Daniel, of course

you can call me 'Dad'.

But I get it if it doesn't come naturally.

A dad's the guy who raises you,

but they didn't let me do it.

There are things you should know.

Look how Aunt Isabel took care of you

and Poncho when I was locked up.

She did her best

with all the love in the world, but

She's not there to tell you either.

You grew up in an orphanage

not because she wanted you to,

but because somebody took her life.

The same person who took your mom's.

And the same one who used all his power

to put me in prison."

Hello.

It's It's me.

I hate leaving voice mail messages.

I don't know if you listen to them.

I know it's late, but

I'd like to talk to you.

I

[sobs]

Call me when you can, and please

I need you.

I need you, Mom.

Please call me when you can.

I need somebody to tell me

everything is going to be all right.

I'm so afraid.

[phone beeps]

[Olivia sighs]

I got scared when I woke up

and you weren't there.

I'm sorry.

Isn't it a little bit late

to be reading those letters?

We gotta go to Reynosa.

I want to visit the orphanage and find out

more about my aunt and my mom.

What's there that you don't already know?

Olivia, I want to know who I am.

What's wrong about that?

Fine.

Fine.

I'm going to bed. I'll wait for you.

Okay.

Don't go to the wrong bedroom.

[laughs mockingly]

ESTEBAN:

ARE YOU AWAKE?

Poncho.

You shouldn't be here.

It's not good for you.

I'm sorry to sneak in.

I just wanted to check up on you.

Anyway

Sleep tight.

Everything's going to be alright, sweetie.

Your dad will be here. Yeah, he's coming.

[Ricardo] Flor!

Get away from the door!

No, Poncho. Don't come out.

Please.

[Flor]

No, no. Don't go out. Please don't.

[Leonora] Calm down.

He will save your mom.

[gasps]

[Olivia]

Hey. What's wrong?

[man]

He was violent, aggressive.

Once I even saw him

torturing animals.

He buried them alive. He was a psycho.

He even burned his own house down.

[Olivia] Are you okay?

Yeah.

What is it?

Nothing.

[man] My highest virtue is

I'm always willing to learn and improve,

and I'm not brought down by criticism.

I've traveled the world

in search of my passions.

My name is Jesús

and I'm experienced in customer care.

I've always been an artist at heart.

I was a Sherpa at Mount Everest

and a shepherd in Patagonia.

I feel my hands have the power to create

art and I identify as gender fluid.

Okay.

Thank you all. Er

I take it you know basic knitting notions

are required to work here.

Besides

in order to knit,

it is actually fundamental

that you have strong, toned arms.

No. Not true.

It's not fundamental. Don't listen to her.

I know what I'm doing.

I'm getting Gerardo

out of your head no matter what.

So, the next step

to find the most suitable candidate

is to measure your biceps.

So please remove your shirts.

Oh, boy. What's this?

Lupita volunteered

to find an assistant for the store.

It's my birthday present for Fabio.

Is it your birthday?

It's tomorrow, but I don't like it,

so please don't remind me of it.

That way, Fabio won't pull all the weight,

since you have so much on your plate.

An assistant won't be necessary.

Why not?

I already hired one.

Who did you hire?

Mayte. She will be our assistant.

Thank you. You can get dressed now.

- Mayte?

- Yeah.

I put his show on. He missed the previous

episode because he was in the hospital.

I'm going to get your dad

something to eat.

Sure. Thank you, Tina.

Hey, Dad.

I'm gonna tell you something

that will make you so proud.

I'm about to be officially ratified

as captain of the station.

How about that?

You're

my only son.

All you need is a woman.

Don't worry about that.

I want you to understand

that Tina and I can't be with you

for the rest of your life

or 24/7.

You should give Ana a chance.

That happened so long ago.

I assure you

my sister isn't having a nice time.

Even though she denies it.

Hey! Stop looking that way.

That guy is not coming back

to the house. I'm positive.

[Ana]

What are you doing?

They should know you're a wh*re!

Leave them out of this!

What are you doing?

You can't come through!

Get out!

Dad!

Dad, Dad, Dad! Are you okay?

Listen to me. Wake up, I'm here.

- [Ana] Are you okay, Dad?

- [Ángel] Enough.

No more drama.

- Dad, you should better watch this.

- [TV plays indistinctly]

Listen. Dad!

Look that way, please.

[phone rings]

Hello?

Yes, Rosario lives here.

But she's away now.

Maybe you can call her cell phone

Okay. Leave a message,

and I'll pass it to her.

Hospitalized? Why?

Are you sure, Doctor?

Yes, I'll let her know. Thanks.

Did you get the tickets to Reynosa?

Yeah. I booked tickets for three people.

Why three?

We need a journalist.

No.

Why not?

Because that would be going

into the lion's den. I'm not willing to.

I think that's

the most sensible thing she's said

ever since she came here.

You should listen to her.

Bye, baby.

Take care.

Leonora, I need you to be there.

No.

I've already told you

that you have to wait.

Unfortunately, this is a slow process.

Emergencies are fast processes.

My station will not keep abreast

if there is no management.

You mean to take legal action

in a personal capacity

against Ricardo Urzúa.

No!

I demand that the Chief's Office does.

I know the rules.

Even though I am acting captain,

- I'm entitled to

- Answer this, Linares.

But be honest. Do you hold

a personal grudge against Urzúa?

No, sir. I would feel the same way towards

anyone who stained the station's name.

Whether they be

of an inferior or superior rank.

[Penélope] Rosario!

We need to talk.

[Rosario] I can't right now.

I gotta get ready for a sh**ting.

You should be getting ready

for something else and you know it.

No, I don't know

what you're talking about.

You must start chemo.

Why didn't you tell us you were sick?

Because I'm getting better soon.

Rosario, nobody gets better from cancer

without undergoing treatment first.

Cancer?

Don't look at me as if I'm sentenced

to die! Pity is the last thing I need!

I've already brought you enough trouble.

I put your home upside down,

as well as your relationship with Olivia.

Somebody wants me dead, Poncho.

Do you realize that? Bringing me

will only put you in harm's way.

I don't want that.

You're the only one who can give me

Daniel's side of the story.

He didn't go deep in his investigation.

He had more questions than answers.

I watched the video he recorded,

where he said The Butcher k*lled our mom.

I was right.

My biological mother was k*lled

by The Butcher of Reynosa.

That son of a b*tch unknowingly

ruined our lives forever.

He said it because

He knew nothing! Just drop it, Poncho.

Listen. You said it yourself

when I pulled you out of the fire.

We need to avenge

your brother Daniel's death.

I need to tell you everything

the dead can no longer say.

I was in shock.

I didn't know what I was saying.

[phone buzzes]

I gotta take this call.

Esteban. I've told you

a million times not to call me.

Yes, I'll be there. Of course not.

Yes, it's clear you need me

to save your butt

in too many ways. I'll call you back.

I'm in the middle of something.

We're doing this on my terms.

- There it goes!

- Wow!

He shoots to the goal!

Here they are.

Make room.

Coming through. Make room.

Wow!

- Here. Let me get that.

- Are these our 15 minutes of fame?

So, you're armed now?

There.

[all cheer, applaud]

I think we should show Fabio.

So he checks the printing.

What are you doing here?

- Come, come.

- Look here. You're the creator.

This looks amazing!

You're all so handsome.

So who's taking them to Ángel?

Olivia?

No, don't look at me.

Hey. We should give him a chance.

He's learning to be a boss.

He's an arrogant misogynist

with an obvious inferiority complex.

And when you stay silent while he

abuses me, you're being an accomplice.

For real. You should demand more

from your fellow men.

Olivia's right.

I think it's about time we

Yeah? What is she right about?

What is the little lady

whining about this time?

Olivia.

Why aren't you in your posts?

What were you talking about?

We were getting organized

to sell the calendars.

I'll see you in my office, Olivia.

What did I do?

Now.

Thank you.

Well

What did I do now?

What were you talking about?

Private stuff.

Private?

I'm the captain here, and

- Acting captain.

- Yes.

For now. I need not remind you

the firefighting corps is ruled

by traditional subordination, right?

You're my subordinate.

So tell me what the hell

you were talking about!

Your problem is not

what I was talking about.

Your problem has always been

that I'm a woman.

No, my problem is with people

who still don't understand

that there are officers

and ranks in this institution.

Honor, valor, loyalty, and sacrifice,

even over rank and your machismo.

I've had it!

Consider yourself suspended.

Get changed and go home

for a few days to cool down.

Why are you doing this? Because I'm on

This conversation is over. Get out!

And don't weep, sweetie.

[sighs]

Olivia, I'm glad I

I can't right now, Poncho.

What happened?

Ángel has just suspended me.

What? Who the f*ck does he think he is?

I'm sorry, I can't talk right know.

I'm going home.

You were right.

I shouldn't have trusted Leonora.

[exhales sharply]

I'm glad you realized it.

I heard her talking on the phone, and

I don't know. There was something

about what she said Something was off.

Poncho, I don't want to say it, but

- I told you.

- I know.

I'm accepting it. Forgive me.

You're the only one I can really trust.

Let's go.

Let's both go to Reynosa. f*ck Leonora.

What are you doing?

What?

I just got suspended.

Do you want them to expel me?

Let's go home, then.

We have so much to plan.

Yeah. Let's go

before I break Ángel's face.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to talk to Ángel.

He's unbearable. I advise against it.

Whatever. Can we go now?

We have so much to do.

What's the hurry, Poncho?

Will you keep avoiding talking to me?

We have nothing to talk about.

Poncho, Poncho

Get your hands off me!

What's your problem with me?

You know that perfectly well!

No, I have no idea!

I've just tried to be your friend!

I know everything about you,

Ricardo Urzúa!

I know you're my father,

I know you're The Butcher,

and I know you k*lled my mom, you f*ck.

I know everything about you.
