01x03 - El hater

[bunniefuu]

What were Martina

and Rodrigo fighting about?

Um, I don't know.

Uh, she didn't tell me.

Well, why did you keep talking to Rodrigo

instead of going to look for Martina?

- Irene

- Is that Martina?

Martina! No!

Martina!

Martina!

m*therf*cker!

Martina.

Are you all right?

You b*stard!

- Let go of her!

- Get off them!

Get out of here!

You pervert!

You filthy pervert! as*h*le!

- You b*stard!

- Martina?

Martina!

Fer, watch out!

PACT OF SILENCE

Silence.

- Hello!

- Hi.

- How are you?

- Great. How are you?

Good, thanks. Come in.

I love your place.

Ah, thank you.

Want a drink? I'm making tea.

- That's perfect.

- Okay.

Where's your family?

Thought I might meet them today.

Uh, well, I told them to walk the dogs

so we could have a bit of peace and quiet.

Aw, that's sweet. But, yeah.

Maybe that's better, since I'll be talking

about my life and might need some

Well, a bit more of an intimate space.

Well, it's intimate, if not a bit small.

- But it's what I can afford to rent.

- Right.

- Here you are.

- Thank you.

- Let's sit over there.

- Okay. Let's do this.

I'll just grab these.

This book is gonna help you so much, Sofi.

You'll be able to buy a place,

and you won't have to worry anymore.

Buy?

- Do you own your own place?

- Yeah, I do.

But, I mean,

I still don't have what you do.

Age?

No, um family.

You've got years of memories,

pictures, paintings.

A real home.

All you need is to own the building.

But you'll have that soon. You'll see.

That's my biggest dream,

you know?

- Hello.

- Great. You're here.

- Almost done. Give me a second.

- Wow. Would you look at all these flowers!

I know, it's embarrassing.

Rodrigo doesn't send me flowers.

- Mm!

- Grab some.

They're beautiful, all right.

But who's been sending them to you?

I can't tell. One of my many suitors.

Mm-hmm. Well,

you should hold on to this suitor.

Flowers alone are worth it.

- Are you hungry?

- Yes.

- Me too.

- What are we eating?

- Sushi?

- Oh yeah, sushi.

There's a great place nearby.

You don't wanna get that?

Um, no.

It's just a suitor.

Uh, I'm so sorry, Sofía.

I'd rather you didn't record it.

It'll be like I'm giving an interview,

and I'd rather it be

more like a conversation

between two good buddies.

No. That's fine.

But let me take some notes instead.

- Yeah, of course. Yes.

- Okay?

Why don't we start

with your childhood,

what it was like for you as a kid?

Well, my mother was really beautiful

and pretty young.

I watched them leave you.

They were four little rich girls.

Oh, yes. They had lots of money.

They could've kept you easily.

But they didn't want to.

My dad was my hero.

We were very close.

No! Mommy!

Mommy, wake up, Mommy!

But none of it lasted.

My parents had a lot of money.

And because of that,

they were kidnapped and then k*lled.

Officer, help me!

She's getting away!

My aunt and uncle

ended up taking me in.

Keep walking!

And cared for me.

They gave me lots of love

and a home.

I was happy back then.

Whenever I look

in the mirror, I can see my mother.

The two of us were so similar.

I'm just so impressed by that.

You get ideas, and somehow,

you make pages appear! It's, uh

I don't know.

You know, it's not fast or simple.

- I'm always searching for inspiration.

- Mm-hmm, I'm sure. I guess.

- Hello!

- Hello!

- Hello there.

- My husband, Manuel.

- Hi. Nice to meet you.

- Hello. I'm Brenda. Nice to meet you.

- How are ya?

- Hello!

Hey, you!

- What's your name? Aw!

- My name is Camila.

- Hi! Oh wow! Your doll's pretty.

- Thank you!

Well, you're very pretty too.

- How old are you?

- Thank you. I'm seven.

You know what? I'm not going

to the campaign closing with you guys.

I'd rather the two of you go alone.

What's happening?

Nothing, sweetheart. You know your father.

I'll just be in everyone's way.

Lupita, can you bring me

some water, please?

Yes, ma'am.

I'll be there in a moment.

Darling, are you serious?

Just forget it. I'd rather not be there.

But you're not just my husband,

sweetheart, you're my mentor.

I can't do this without you.

They haven't seen you in ages.

They're always asking after you.

Ricardo.

Don't you think it's time to let everyone

know what you've been going through?

No, I don't, Irene.

I haven't spent my whole life

earning the respect of my peers

so that I can watch them pity me.

- It's all right, Dad.

- No!

No. I don't want them

to see me like this. I'm not ready.

- Thank you, Lupita.

- Ma'am.

It's all right, love.

We'll do whatever you want.

Whenever you're ready.

And we'll be there to support you,

as always.

Come on. Where's that smile?

Oh, hi!

How are you? Oh, what a beautiful kitty.

Want a sandwich? Hang on.

- There you go.

- Thank you.

- Hi!

- Hey! How are you?

- Good, you?

- Working hard.

Itzel.

What's up?

Sniffing?

Yeah, we're all just hanging out,

you know?

Mm-hmm.

So we should talk

about what happened yesterday.

Oh yeah. What happened? I forget.

Or was it because I said hi to you

while you were with someone?

That was stupid of me.

Forgive me, Brenda, I'm really sorry.

No, dude. I'm the one who's sorry.

I don't want it to seem

like I'm ashamed of you, you know?

Look, I know you got all of your plans.

And your fancy friends.

And you're famous now, right?

And nobody knows

that you used to live here.

Itzel, just relax, okay?

I don't wanna argue when you're like this.

Like what?

I get it, Itzel.

You don't feel like forgiving me now.

And I know you hate hearing this,

but you don't have to keep living here.

Look, you know I'd never force you

to do anything.

- It might be a good idea to go to rehab

- Don't start with that!

Well, why don't you move into my house?

Itzel I know this is the only world

you've ever known. Trust me. I get it.

But I want you to know

that I'm here for you. I've got you.

The second I wanna put myself

into a clinic, you're gonna know.

But I don't need you

to bring me your stuff.

It's embarrassing.

You don't wanna have

a little peek?

Did you bring me

that paint that I like?

Brenda, Martina's not answering

any of my calls.

Did you honestly think

you could get her with flowers?

Martina is a boss.

You won't be able to impress her

with material things.

You've gotta earn her trust.

Okay, but how do I do it?

She doesn't wanna see me.

Martina's obsessed with her socials

and tags herself

in every place she ends up at.

Great.

I can track her down that way.

What should I do after that?

How well do you know your coworkers?

Well, I guess I know that guy pretty well.

He's my roommate.

He's actually the one

that got me the job here.

Don't mention my name,

but why don't you ask him if he's looking

to make a little money on the side?

How?

You want him to also date Martina?

No. Just the opposite.

Your friend is gonna help you

get Martina to finally start trusting you.

What's wrong, Mommy?

HOUSE FOR SALE

- You know what, sweetheart?

- What?

Now that I have this big,

exciting book project to work on,

we'll finally be able to have

the beautiful life I want for us.

I know I have to get over it.

All the stuff with Sofía.

Well, I'm starting to feel

a little bit bad.

What?

This was your plan.

Get her to publish the book,

and then sue her for defamation.

It was, but

I wasn't thinking about her kid, and now

What if I crush her

and end up hurting her daughter?

Brenda, I know

that you're trying not to think about it.

But I think you know that deep down,

you're worried that Fer

or Sofía's kids are your siblings.

What do you think

will happen when this is over?

Do you think

you can make them love you if you

if you destroy

their mothers' lives forever?

You've always longed for a family, Brenda.

I'm not sure I would call it "longing."

But you're my family, Alex.

I know. But it's not quite the same.

Hey, hey, hey.

What's wrong?

Why don't you get down from there, okay?

You can talk to me. Come on!

- No, I'm worthless.

- No, no, no!

No, that's not true!

I'm begging you to come down

so we can talk about this.

Israel kept telling me

I was worthless.

He said that to me when he left.

I'm nothing without him.

I'm not attractive or smart enough.

Israel sounds

like he was an as*h*le

and he shouldn't have treated you

like that.

Do you really wanna throw your life away

for an as*h*le like that?

Listen. I know we don't know each other,

but people have been treating me

like sh*t since the day I was born.

But I'm never going to k*ll myself.

I won't give them that satisfaction.

Please, come down.

I've got you. I'm here.

Welcome, everyone.

It's so good to have you all here with me.

Today, we're gonna be making

a delicious green juice

for detoxification.

So before we begin,

I can see you all here.

Thank you for your comments.

I'm reading them all.

BP: FRAUD!!!!

And wow. My queens,

my kings, what's up with you?

This is You know I always treat you

with respect and love.

I'm not super into this. 'Kay?

BP: WHERE DO YOU REALLY COME FROM?

Don't pay attention to them.

Haters will always exist,

and we just have to learn

to deal with them.

BP: TELL YOUR FANS WHO YOUR MOM IS

BP: WHERE DO YOU COME FROM?

You know what?

I'm gonna stop. We're gonna address this.

I'm not bothered by this,

but since you're all upset,

we're gonna block them.

Because you guys are right,

the truth is that this is a safe space

with no bad vibes allowed.

I'll just I'm gonna block them.

BP: YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO YOUR MOM IS

SAY HER NAME IF YOU KNOW I

That hater was someone who knows me, Alex.

I mean, they were asking me

about my birth mother.

That's a typical online insult.

Everybody insults mothers.

No, no, no! This person was unrelenting

and challenging me on who my mother is.

Why the f*ck

would they insult me that way?

It's really messed up.

They're trying to scare me.

But I won't let them win.

Today, it is with some sadness

that I leave behind

my role as your deputy.

But I'm excited for this next chapter

as I enter the race

for which I've been preparing.

But we're not saying goodbye

because I promise

that I will be your next mayor!

Long live Mexico!

Irene!

Irene! Irene! Irene! Irene!

Thank you! Thank you so much!

Irene! Irene!

Your Honor, thank you so much

for being here.

- Thank you.

- Deputy! The feed is live right now.

How do you feel now that you're

a candidate to become mayor?

Well, I'm very happy, especially since

I have the support of the new generation.

And personally, is there anything

you wanna share?

Well, I can say that I know how difficult

it can be to find job opportunities.

But my government

will facilitate that for youngsters.

But is there a secret

that you might be able to share

with all of my kings

and queens who are watching this?

Wow. Mm For me, this is all a dream.

A dream I've had all my life,

and it's finally coming true.

So you have to work very hard

to achieve your dreams too.

Wonderful. We're gonna be

with the candidate for a while.

So, if you have any questions,

leave them here.

- All done.

- Perfect.

That was fun!

A little secret? Something personal?

Well, those are things

that interest my followers.

But it distracts from my campaign,

so don't pull something like that again.

It's my first day,

and your mother is gonna fire me.

Don't worry about it too much.

She's just very private

about her personal life.

Do you think maybe

the two of us could get together

and you could explain

the campaign to me a bit more?

Sure, I could.

Okay.

All the principles of her campaign

are based on honesty.

My mother's reputation is impeccable.

That sounds like every politician,

you know.

But it is true in our case.

My mother's never been involved

in any kind of scandal or corruption.

Okay. Fair.

I hear you. But even though your mom

won't like it,

I think people are gonna connect

more with the human angle.

Look.

- I'll show you the live stream.

- Hmm.

Twenty-two thousand views.

After that, we made

a little video from it,

and that video now

has almost two million views.

And it'll just continue

to go up and up and up.

You know what it's taken

for me to generate this kind of following?

Hard work?

And experience.

Now I know what my followers like.

Like for example, tell me

what's Irene like as a mom?

- She's very generous.

- Mm.

We aren't blood relatives.

But she's always treated me as her own.

I didn't make things easy for her.

When Irene met me, I was a bitter kid.

I was wild.

My mother had just passed away.

And my father

was never around.

Irene took care of me when I was sick,

was always devoted to me.

She was always kind, even when I wasn't.

Are you okay?

Just thinking about my parents.

You're very lucky to have her.

Each other.

You want a coffee?

Uh, sure.

I'll be right back.

DATA TRANSFER

TRANSFERRING DATA

TRANSFER IN PROGRESS

TRANSFERRING DATA

TRANSFERRING DATA

Hang on,

I'll help you with the coffees.

Oh sh*t, I'm so sorry.

That was all my fault.

- Let me grab that. I'll help you.

- Yeah. No, don't worry.

- Does it burn?

- Yeah, a little.

Are you okay? Oh, sorry.

No, no. Adriano, no. No.

- We can't do this.

- Why not?

I got carried away.

This isn't right.

I just I don't wanna make trouble.

Don't worry. I'm gonna clean myself up.

TRANSFER DONE 100%

TRANSFER FINALIZED 100%

FERNANDA: WHY AREN'T YOU ANSWERING?

RODRIGO: I'M IN A MEETING.

FERNANDA: AT THIS HOUR?

RODRIGO: YES. I CAN'T CHAT.

SEE YOU AT HOME.

FERNANDA: AT WHAT TIME?

Damn it.

Are you feeling okay, Mom?

Honey, would you do me a favor and grab

the sleeping pills from the bathroom?

Where's your brother?

Probably out with his friends.

Of course, in this house,

everyone just does whatever they want.

Thank you.

Tomás? Tomás.

I'm okay, Sam.

Not again.

I'm fine, I swear.

Tomás, come on.

Put on your pajamas

and go to sleep before Dad gets back.

Tomás, listen to me.

Yeah.

Why are you wearing my clothes?

Shut up.

If you don't, I'm gonna tell Mom

and Dad that you got home drunk.

Don't worry about it.

I won't tell.

I'll make a deal with you.

Will you sing me a lullaby?

No, Tomás. Go to sleep.

The one about the spider.

The spider

That one.

Oh, Manu.

- Our lives are finally gonna change.

- Yeah.

Thanks to your talent, Sofía, my love.

And thanks to Brenda.

Yeah.

I swear, when I saw that house,

I could imagine us living there.

Ah.

We'll still probably have to ask

for a loan, but

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Whatever it takes,

that little house already belongs to us.

- Yeah?

- Yeah?

Mm.

What are you doing,

calling me at this hour?

No. What if they find out?

What would I do then?

Honey, I told you

I didn't get home that late,

but those sleeping pills you take

make you forget everything.

And where were you last night?

I went to the movies with friends.

And don't even start

'cause I got home early, all right?

Oh, that's nice.

"Good morning, Mom. How are you?"

Isn't that true, Sam?

- Morning.

- See what a nice table I set?

- Gorgeous.

- I'm gonna take a little photo.

- Let me fix this.

- Sweetheart. Come on.

- Hey. One.

- We're trying to have breakfast.

- I'll be quick. Just one.

- Fer

- Hey

- Mom.

- Move over. It'll be quicker.

- Take off that necklace.

- Move a bit so we can all be seen.

- Come on.

- It'll be quick. Come on. Look here.

- Yes, boss.

Smile.

There. All done.

Thanks, honey.

- This breakfast is bullshit.

- You should eat something.

No f*ck' way.

It's gorgeous out.

We should do something all together.

I'm busy.

Dad's driving me to soccer practice.

Yeah, that's true. You know what, though?

I've just been called to a meeting.

I'll drive you first

and head straight there.

- Gotta go.

- Drive me to the bookstore?

- Sure. We've got to go.

- Okay.

- Good. Otherwise, I'm gonna be late.

- What? Leaving?

- No one's eating?

- Everything was delicious.

Yeah, I've gotta buy this book.

It's for a project at school.

I'm sorry, Mom.

Sweetheart, I'm really sorry.

But this meeting just came up, okay?

What's up, Fer?

Hey, Martina. Are you up

for brunch and mimosas in a bit?

Oh, I can't. I'm sorry.

I have a work meeting.

Fer, are you there?

Will I see you next week?

Um, wait. One of the guys

I'm seeing is calling me.

- He's calling you now?

- Gotta hang up. I'll call soon.

OMAR CALLING

You didn't sleep again?

No. I can't find anything

to mess with Irene.

I'm pretty sure Adriano deleted everything

because he's complicit

in whatever they're doing.

Well, I hope not.

Because if it turns out Irene is corrupt,

I really wouldn't want him

to be involved in it.

Well, what? I think he's sweet.

He seems like a good person.

I'm not even gonna ask

if you like him because it's obvious.

All right.

- He is hot. He's intelligent.

- Yes.

- Mm-hmm.

- What? Am I not supposed to feel anything?

Sure, except for one small little detail.

He's essentially Irene's son.

Yes, I know.

If I don't find any dirt on Irene,

what could be better

than stealing her son?

Buy you a drink?

Thanks.

Thank you.

Hi, gorgeous.

Thank you.

I don't believe in God, but if I did,

you'd be the answer to my prayers.

Really?

Why don't you try a better one than that?

Bye.

What do you mean,

you haven't sent the budget?

No, I don't care how late it is.

Yes, it's your fault

for not doing it in time.

I need you to do it right away.

- Hey.

- You think you're better than me?

- Huh?

- What are you doing?

- No! Relax! I'm not gonna hurt you.

- Let go of me!

I just want

- No! Stop it!

- Shh! Shut up. Shut up!

Just shut up and listen.

I'm not gonna hurt you.

I'm not gonna hurt you.

Hey.

Help me!

- I said just shut up and relax.

- Hey! Let her go, man!

Let her go!

Get out of here! Go!

Are you all right?

Martina. Martina!

Look!

Your big, beautiful face

will be everywhere.

At the supermarket,

at garages, in convenience stores.

Even in the subway.

Oh.

That's great, Alex.

Hey! This is a huge moment

in your career.

ADRIANO'S ACCOUN

TRANSACTIONS

Before,

you were just an influencer.

But now, you're an icon.

And very soon,

you're going to be a superstar.

When are you gonna stop?

I can't believe there's nothing on Irene.

I mean, it just seems absurd to me.

There's not a single incriminating email

or even a dirty money transfer. Nothing.

BOARDING SCHOOL TEACHER

ARRESTED FOR ABUSING STUDENTS

A teacher?

"A Teacher at La Victoria Boarding School

was arrested for abusing his students."

sh*t.

Why would Adriano

have saved this article?

Learning to Love. Sofía's book is

about a romantic relationship

between a teacher and a student.

I bet she lied to me,

and it actually is autobiographical.

But the article says that the teacher

abused a bunch of students.

I mean, she was 16 years old.

He was an adult. That's manipulation.

I'm sure she thought it was love, but

But why did Adriano

save this article, then?

He's got nothing to do with Sofía.

Well, maybe Irene was also involved

with the teacher.

BRENDA: HI, ADRIANO.

CAN WE MEET RIGHT NOW?

- Who are you texting?

- Adriano.

I have to try

to get information out of him.

ADRIANO: SURE. I'LL MEET YOU AT MY OFFICE.

Are you calling from her place?

Brenda, Martina passed out.

What? Why did she pass out?

Antonio.

That as*h*le completely lost it.

Brenda?

Omar! Omar! Call Alex!

What's happening?

Someone's trying to k*ll me.

Call the police!

- Are you okay?

- Omar! Help me!

- Omar! Help!

- What's happening?

Brenda!

They're running me off the road. Omar!

Brenda, answer me!
