01x03 - Culpable hasta que se demuestre lo contrario

[bunniefuu]

Sorry, did I interrupt you?

-I can go inside. I'll finish later.
-No, it's fine.

Practicing in front of others is good,
so I can get used to it. Yeah.

I play too much at home anyway.

Do you always play the same piece?

Well, it sounds different to me, but sure.

How's Armando?

Doing better, thank you.

They're saying
all kinds of things at school.

They just wanna gossip
about the private lives of other people.

He's fine.

And he'll be even better soon.

What is that?

Vivaldi.

Aren't you freezing?

A little bit.

C'mere. I might have something for you.

Here, put these gloves on.

Warm you up.

Thank you.

This will make traveling between the towns
via highway significantly faster.

Officials have announced…

…as well as to create safer conditions
for all future construction work…

Weather today in Bariloche
is predicted to be sunny,

with lows of five degrees Celsius…

Thank you.

This right here is your statement.

Read it, then sign it.

Then you should rest.
It's been a long night.

-No. No, that's not what I said, though.
-What's wrong?

It's just…

Well, I went up to the road.

I was gonna call you guys for help,
and that's when I heard the g*nsh*t.

So, I ran back. I looked down,
and I saw Leo Mercer sinking in the water.

You realize the implication?

Yes, but I can only say
what I saw and what I heard.

That's not the version of events
you have written down.

We'll change it. No problem.

Amend this and bring it back to me.

Yes, sir.

What you did was pretty dangerous.

You could've gotten yourself k*lled.

Be careful.

I began as a broadcast journalist.

And on my very first day at work,

my boss sent me to cover
a bank robbery with hostages.

Suddenly, I was in the middle
of a shootout.

When I finally got home,

I swore I'd do anything
as long as it wasn't journalism.

But here I am.

Read it and see if it looks correct.

-Sign there.
-This is good.

Can I ask you a question?

Are you sure that Leo Mercer
really mentioned Martina Schulz?

Yes, I'm positive. Why?

Her family reported her missing.

This scarf is hers.

We found it in a drifting boat.

We're searching the lake.

Take pictures
of this section before finishing.

Come on.

Let's go.

No, wait.

Hey, dumbass.
We need to get back to class. Come on.

-Shouldn't we tell them?
-No, let's go.

Fine. But I'm going.

Hey, let's wrap up the pictures…

Hey, honey.

Hi, Mom.

Why are you here?

Martina goes to my school.

Oh.

Are you two friends?

No, she's in a different class,
but, um… I know her.

-Anything new?
-No, not much. No.

She's been missing for two days.

They think she went out in the boat drunk
and fell into the lake.

Seems she was at a party
the night she vanished.

Yeah, I was at that party.

Costa,

where were you
between 11:00 and 12:00 last night?

Let me repeat that one more time.

Facundo, I want you to tell me
what happened last night,

if you could, in your own words.

What happened just before midnight
at Ñirihuau Bridge?

We have a witness and they're saying
that you m*rder*d Leo Mercer.

What was your relationship
with the victim like?

The victim's my daughter.

Fine, I see you're exercising
your right to remain silent.

The state attorney
has been informed of your detention.

You will be detained until the trial.

Yeah?

Excuse me.

It's the journalist.

She wants to enter the house
where the party was held.

Garay?

Who's there?

-Gutiérrez.
-Alright, give her 15 minutes.

I'm not here to pass judgment.

I'd have done the same in your shoes.

But you better find a good lawyer.

Do it for your daughter.

Did you notice anything strange
about Martina the night of the party?

Strange how?

I don't know.

Was she really high or drunk, you know?
Had she been drinking?

Yeah, like everyone else.

Like everyone else?

I don't know, Mom. She had a few drinks,
maybe she took something.

I wasn't paying attention.

Does she have a boyfriend or a girlfriend?

No idea.

Did you see her with anyone at the party?

Am I being interrogated?

A little, yeah.

Did she ever mention Leo Mercer?

How should I know, Mom?

Do you have her number?

-Whose? Martina's?
-Yeah.

Maybe in a group chat, yeah.

Please, check.

Yeah, I have it.

Send it to me.

Just sent it.

You see the video
that's circulating on social media?

-You have reached…
-Martina.

This number is unavailable
or out of coverage.

The one where Martina's leaving the house
and walks towards the lake.

Yeah, of course I saw it.

And the boat was tied up here, wasn't it?

I think so, yeah.

Think there could be another video?

One of her getting into the boat?

No, we were trying not to go outside,
so the neighbors wouldn't catch us.

So I doubt anyone recorded her leaving.

But there has to be one.

It's possible.

I have an idea.

♪ Hey, ten o'clock, down to monoblock ♪

♪ El show block, f*ck the opps
We're going to the top ♪

♪ Never stop, sin h*', he is in shock ♪

♪ What the f*ck?
Do you wanna dance or what? ♪

Hey.

-What's up?
-Chillin'.

That's cool.

You recorded your set
at that party, right?

-Can I see the original video?
-Why?

Um, I'll take it from here, hun.

This is my mom.

We're trying to find out
what happened to Martina Schulz.

The police think she got into a boat,

that she was so drunk she fell
into the lake, but no one saw her leave.

If you share your full set, maybe
we can figure out what happened to her.

I didn't see anything,
and can't give you the set.

Right, I'm gonna be honest with you.
All I care about is Martina.

I understand why you're worried,

but I promise I don't give a sh*t about
what anybody snorted, drank, or shot up.

Not you, not my son.

So can we have the footage?

Bindi, bindi.

What's that?

Bruno,
why are they drawing on their faces?

Uh, the party was a "Bindi Party."

The dot is supposed to be the third eye
that allows you to see beyond reality.

-Is that the boat?
-Yeah.

Was it there when you got there?

Yeah, of course.

You're looking fit, dude.

Ema, can we talk for a minute?

Please.

Good news. I spoke to the guys at Tando.

They're waiting to see the material
from your Caught piece on Mercer.

-Good, so we weren't that bad, huh?
-It's huge. Can you finish it by tonight?

-Not for tonight, there's no way. I can't.
-Why? What is it?

My investigation's still open.

You needed a suspect. You had him
in front of you till his very last breath.

-What more do you need?
-I need more material to finish the piece.

After that, you'll have it.

Ema. Ema, come here, we found her.

Ema. Ema, this is important.

It matters for you, for me, for everybody
that we close this deal with Tando.

-It's a huge opportunity.
-I need more proof before I accuse Mercer.

Wait.

Let me see if I'm getting this right.

You do realize that you publicly accused
Leo Mercer from your own account?

-I mean--
-Yes, I know that.

I know. You don't have
to keep reminding me.

I'm still investigating.

Ema.

Come here.

-Is that Martina?
-Yes.

The one standing outside. Her.

Oh, move it. Come on.

-What's that?
-Wait a sec.

-There she goes.
-What time was it?

2:09 a.m.

Let's see, just go back.

There.

Who's that?

-Who's who?
-Just zoom.

There. In the boat.

She left with someone.

The CDR report
for Martina Schulz's cell phone data.

These reports always take forever.

Can you translate this for me?

Sure.

I got the map right here.

As you can see, there's a cell tower here.

That night,
between 11:00 p.m. and 2:18 a.m.,

Martina's cell phone
was registered at this tower.

The party took place in this house here,
and as you see,

it's within that tower's coverage area.

Yes.

And later, between 2:43 and 5:48 a.m.,
it was activated in this other tower.

Okay.

Here's Martina's house,
and here's the school.

Apparently, her phone
was turned off after 5:48 a.m.

After that, nothing.

Alright, so, Martina, or at least
Martina's cell phone, it left the lake.

And headed towards her house.

Seems like it.

Have them cross-check all their phones.

Martina's, her father's,
her boyfriend's, and Leo Mercer's.

I'm on it.

-You have reached…
-Martina.

This number is unavailable,
or out of cover--

Coffee?

-Where's Bruno?
-He left a while ago.

Thank you.

So, my contacts at the courthouse
have screenshots from the computer

that they seized from Leo Mercer.

And your chats, they were all there.

Every single one.

I don't know what Leo meant,

claiming that Martina asked him to
meet her at the house with the red door,

but he agreed to meet you.

He was talking to you.

I also checked the map to see
the possible routes he could have taken

after leaving his car at the foundation
to go to the party to meet Martina.

There are three possibilities.

And then he got on the boat with her
all before 2:09 a.m.

Still, I… need more than that.

Ema.

That silhouette could be anyone's.

I read she had
a boyfriend in the statement.

Yeah, I'll check.

Gael Benítez.

He was at the party,
but then he left for El Bolsón.

-Benítez? Gael Benítez?
-Ema, what's going on?

I mean, you went to see him alone.
You nearly got yourself k*lled.

And now you're second-guessing
everything I say. What is it?

I… really believed him.

Leo Mercer, I did.

Bruno?

CEM #48 HIGH SCHOOL

This is my job, Bruno.

I'm sorry that you don't like it,
but I have to do it.

-That's not it.
-Then what's bothering you?

-Nothing.
-No, it's not nothing.

You think I should handle it differently?
Fine, but at least tell me why.

I know it isn't easy. If you get a comment
that isn't meant for you--

Mom, you want Gael's number?
Fine, I'll give it to you.

I told you, I saw him leave the party
at 3:00 a.m. with a friend.

There you go. That's all I got.

Tell me why you wanna know that.

Because I'm trying to understand
what happened to Martina.

I imagine you'd want to know that too.

Go ahead.

Nothing.

When we feel like it, we hook up.

Other kids said they saw you two
fighting at the party. Is that right?

Everyone loves gossiping.

Yeah.

Alright, once that was over,
did you immediately leave then or…?

Yep.

Was it a big fight?

No.

Martina seemed distracted.

What do you mean she seemed distracted?

She does her own thing.

She's messing around…

with someone else.

Yo, Gael, you tell the police that?

They dragged him to the station.

Actually, I'll take some of that tea
you offered me, if you don't mind.

Sure.

-I'll get it right away.
-Thank you.

Can I show you a video?

From the night of the party.

She's leaving with someone else.

Yeah, I already saw it.

Is it possible this guy's the one
Martina was spending her time with?

I have no idea.

But I think she was screwing around
with an older guy.

Why do you say that?

She was different

It was like everything she used to like,
or enjoy or… I don't know.

She hated it.

MARTINA SCHULZ
HAVE YOU SEEN HER?

-Let's hand these out.
-Alright.

-Here. We need to wallpaper the city.
-Okay.

-A friend disappeared four nights ago.
-Flo.

This is her.
Her name's Martina Schulz. She's 17.

-If anyone knows anything--
-Seriously?

-No way we'll find Martina like this.
-You're a real as*h*le.

I'm not, I'm realistic. We need to do
something more than just posters.

Then why don't you go do that?

-You hear from Gael?
-I texted him, but he didn't respond.

Where is he?

-Put these up in your neighborhood.
-Yeah, sure.

I already did the classroom.

Hey, Lu. Can you put these up?

Thanks.

Hey, girls.

Can you put these posters
up in your neighborhood?

Fer.

What? We're doing the posters.

-I'm telling my mom.
-No, you can't!

-No, no, I have to.
-Don't do anything. Wait a little longer.

Do you think she's gonna turn up alive?
That she just left without telling anyone?

Seriously?

Telling your mom about the boat's
not gonna change anything.

It's not gonna help.
It'll just screw us over.

Don't worry about it.
I'm gonna tell her it was just me.

That I acted alone. That it's my fault.
That's it. I'm telling her today.

Or tomorrow at the cemetery.
I'll tell her.

-The anniversary's tomorrow?
-Yeah, it's settled. I'll tell her there.

Hey.

Was there anything she said
or anything about her general demeanor…?

Was there anything that seemed
a little strange about how she was acting?

Any possibility that Martina
was seeing someone older?

How much older?

An adult.

Martina? No.

-No.
-No, no, no.

Do you know if she ever went
to the Fronteras Foundation

where she would have had contact
with Leo Mercer?

Leo dated our neighbor
for a number of years.

But that's really it.

Oh, yeah. I knew that.

Leo gave Martina…
he gave her a pair of gloves once.

Not long ago.

I remember it. I saw her wearing, um…

gloves that were too big for her.

First, I thought they were mine.

She told me Leo had given her
those gloves to wear.

Why didn't you tell me about that?

Didn't seem important.

It was just that one time.

Martina never said anything to me, so I…

I didn't see anything weird about it.

I remember that the police
also asked about Leo.

They cross-checked phone lines
but didn't find anything.

I don't get why Leo told you
he spoke with Martina.

Neither do I.

Come in.

Thank you.

Uh, may I take some photos?

Uh, sure, that's fine.

Does Martina have a personal diary?

Somewhere where she writes
about how she's feeling?

Martina…

she plays the violin all day.

This is her diary right here.

And when she's not playing the violin,

she's on the computer, or her phone.

The police took everything
and analyzed it,

but they haven't found anything so far.

I don't know.

I guess I thought that…

we were closer.

That I knew her better.

I should've paid more attention
to what she was doing.

No, please don't think about that.

It's not your fault.

Uh… I'll leave you with Germán,
he's in the other room right next door.

If you have any other questions,
you can ask him. Thank you.

COLÓN THEATER
VIVALDI - THE FOUR SEASONS - FEBRUARY 10TH

She's dead, right?

My parents won't tell me anything.

But she's dead.

All I know for sure is that
a lot of people are looking for her.

And they won't rest until they find her.

MARTINA SCHULZ
HAVE YOU SEEN HER?

Oh, fell asleep. Didn't even realize.

Is it late?

Yeah, it's late.

I'll make some coffee.

I made some tea.

Oh.

I love you.
I don't know what I'd do without you.

I was thinking we could go
to the cemetery this afternoon.

You forgot?

I think of your father every day.
I don't need to go the cemetery for that.

-Well, I do. It's good for me to go.
-No, of course.

Of course. You should.

And I want to go with you.

It's good for me too, right? Hmm?

Okay.

Inspector! We found something.

This guy set up
quite the little camp here.

MISSED ALARM - FIRST REHEARSAL

-What time the phone was activated?
-8:00 a.m.

The alarm turned it on.

Guys, we found it!

Put your jackets on.
Let's head up there. Let's go, please.

This way, please.

Come this way for further instructions.

Everyone take it easy. Remain calm.

Firefighters, police,
right this way for further instructions.

Let's go.

Let's go up there to get our instructions.
Firefighters too. Let's go.

-My partners are over there.
-Please, let's walk carefully.

-Focus on the south area.
-Let's go. Let's go, slowly.

Slowly.

This way, please.

All the way up.

Let's go, let's go. Firefighters, police.

All volunteers, gather here.
Let's have everyone make a circle.

Come closer, please. Closer.

-Let's go. Careful.
-This way.

-Come on.
-Slowly.

Alright, the area we need to comb
is large, wooded, and steep.

We are gonna form a wedge.

The agent in the orange vest
is the tip of the wedge.

Everybody else will follow behind in a V.

The neighbors who showed up to help,
they're gonna be the outer edges.

And with this formation,
we'll cover to the edge of the water.

-Move out!
-Let's get going.

Volunteers,
please follow these instructions closely.

Are you coming, hon? Everyone's here.

I don't think I can go today.

Let's go tomorrow, okay?

Torres, check over there.

Martina!

Martina! Martina!

Martina! Martina! Martina!

Martina!

Martina! Martina! Martina!

Martina!

Martina!

-Can we access it? At the lake?
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Martina!

-No, just follow along for now.
-Okay.

JUAN MELLER
REST IN PEACE

Hi. Excuse me. Can I come with you?

Sure, no problem.

Martina!

Martina!

-Martina!
-Martina!

Hello.

-How's it going?
-Fine.

I saw you talking to Herrera.

Yeah, he asked if I knew this area,
and I said I did.

There's a path leading to the lake

where Leo and I used to play
when we were kids.

Do you think Leo might be involved
in Martina's disappearance?

You really want to know?

I wish Leo were here
to explain what really happened.

I don't think he's a monster
like everyone else does.

This place must have been a paradise
to play in when you were kids, huh?

Yeah.

It was probably
one of the happiest times of my life.

The freest, that's for sure.

We could go days
without seeing another soul.

We were brothers.

More. More than that.

Some family you get to choose.

And Leo and I chose each other.

We chose each other 35 years ago.

He was my best friend.

Martina!

Martina!

I'm sorry
to have to tell you this, but…

we found her body…

Well, forensics is still wrapping up.

Yeah, go ahead and send your guys over.

That's right…

Herrera called--

Commissioner Herrera called me
and asked me to come here to help out.

Tell them to come here
as soon as they can.

Yeah, get them down.

I'm sorry, can I help you?

I emailed it.

Yeah, I have it here.

You did a good job, Ema.

-Get some rest.
-Thank you.

Ema, if you give me ten minutes,
we can grab a coffee.

Don't worry, I'm okay.
Let's talk tomorrow.

Hello.

Wait, what?

Thank you.

I wanna know what you were thinking.

Coming here all alone like that.

All alone.

Don't even think about doing this again.

If you don't want to call me,
then call Vicky, but don't go on your own!

-Why didn't you tell me before?
-I wanna leave.

Yeah? That's not up to us.

We have to wait for Herrera
to get here to fix this whole mess.

-Do you really not trust me?
-You don't listen.

No, you know that's not true.
When have I not listened?

All the time. You're always
wrapped up in your own world.

That's not true.

You're the one who's in their own world.

-Are you serious?
-Yeah.

-Really?
-Yes. Help me understand.

What is going on?

Why wouldn't you tell me about the boat?
That's just so stupid. So stupid!

-I don't get it, Bruno. I really don't.
-Of course you don't.

You've never put me first.
You're always focused on something else.

If it's not Vicky, it's work,
or finding the person who k*lled Dad.

-Or any of your stupid cases!
-Hey, this is not stupid!

-You have no idea what--
-What? Seriously?!

She even went to the cemetery
while you were busy with this bullshit!

I'm going!
