FORBIDDEN WOMAN

Going in, I want to say that if this
has anything to do with Kitty…

No, let me explain. I apologize.

I shouldn't have said I procured
your relationship in that interview,

but I'm here if you need anything.

What interview?

I see, someone's okay with me
making a fool of myself.

-Isn't this about the interview?
-Alexander,

Víctor and Kitty's relationship is over.

What a pity.
Okay, official business, then.

I called you to talk to you about
my governance plan

and my strategies
for improving the country.

[puffs]

What for?

You and I can make a great team,

if you decide to support my candidacy
and join my campaign.

[tense music]

I can't stress enough
the importance you young people

have in the governance plan.

Tomorrow's families are in your hands.

-Let me interrupt you.
-Sure, of course. Go on.

The thing is,
I've never been interested in politics.

Of course.

I don't want to join up
with any candidate,

no matter what their philosophy is.

Let's get this clear.

This is bigger than you and me.

It's about the country.

And I understand perfectly.
Believe me, I understand.

However, no.

Thanks. I'm not interested.

[dramatic musical stinger]

Víctor, at the party you said
you were interested in getting

more involved in what happened around you.

I did.

But hold on,

I don't need to join politics
in order to help.

I agree.

Yet it's still one way to do it.

Obviously, for a first-rate singer
like you

to support Alexander's campaign
is beneficial to him.

That's undeniable.

But it's not about you
letting him use your image.

It's about you actively participating
in the campaign.

Look, a number of programs
could be put in motion.

-A bunch of them.
-For example, a musical program

to get young people off the street.

Or an art project to be able
to provide them with more opportunities.

I really…

appreciate it very much.

Thanks for taking me into consideration,
for thinking of me,

but again,

I'm not interested.

However, I wish you
all the best with your campaign.

And…

good luck with your foundation, too.

Goodbye.

[door opens and closes]

You know what else
I find difficult to believe?

What?

You being married to a politician.

Call on him again.

Insist.

Do it yourself.

You've established
a certain trust with him

after the assassination attempt
at the airport. You can convince him.

The situation forced me to support you,
and I didn't want to make you look bad.

But you put my back against the wall,
and I don't like you using me.

No one's using you.

I'm simply asking my wife for support.
Is that wrong?

Why didn't you ask me if I agreed?

-Why didn't you say why you called him?
-My bad.

I admit it, I improvised a bit.
I thought of it on the fly.

Of course. It's because of the interview
and the article.

You're losing points.

So you called Víctor
to help you get them back.

No.

I'm interested in what an artist
like him has to say,

his ideas, his contributions.

Thanks.

Víctor!

Karen, you should have dished out

the political discourse
after you told me off about Kitty.

And spare me coming here.

I didn't know Alexander had called you.

Much less that it was for a proposal.

It surprised me to see you walk
into the office.

-You really didn't know?
-I had no idea.

He called me here,
but I didn't know what he wanted.

Oh, so…

he set a trap for both of us?

Well, yes, but it wasn't as bad as a trap.

Alexander made you a proposal

and thought I could help him convince you.

Don't dismiss it right away.
Think it over.

Well, the problem is that…

Look, I like what Alexander says.

I find it very cool,
except it sounds too good in theory.

I don't see him actually applying it.

I don't get it.

Where does family start?

With the couple, right?

So, if he doesn't at the very least have
the mind to spend time with you,

to do anything with you,
to make sure you're fine…

well, then at the end of the day,
that's nothing more than a theory.

He's selling smoke,
it's like something that's utopian,

something that sounds great,
but doesn't happen.

Tell me how I can trust someone
who doesn't do what they say.

-It's not like that.
-[Víctor] Really?

That's what you said at Kitty's party.

Sorry, Víctor, but that's not what I said.

I said Alexander and I were going
through different stages in our lives.

It's unfair for you to talk
about a relationship you don't know.

But your opinion about what happened
between Kitty and me is okay?

[phone rings]

Pick up, please.

Hello?

Patricia's hurt.

We're off to the hospital.

-Which hospital?
-The usual one.

Was it the husband?
Did he beat her up again?

Worse than ever. She's in the OR.
Lidia and I are on our way.

Okay, I'm also on my way.
I just sent Carlos to the bank.

I'll call a taxi.

Okay, see you soon.

What do you mean you'll call a cab?
I'll take you.

-No…
-I can take you.

-Don't worry, Víctor…
-Don't be so stubborn.

Come on, I'll take you.
You'll tell me where to go.

-Come on, please. Hop in.
-Thank you.

The problem is you're not the only one
affected by those accusations.

Nationwide United Family
can't be stigmatized

as a far-right political movement.

We'd never win the election.

Horacio, you've been head of the party
long enough

to know the opposition won't stop
at anything to get slander in.

We had never been so close
to winning the presidential race.

You won't be the one who gets in the way.

If you want me to drop out

so you're the party's
only presidential candidate,

that won't happen.

You've been called sexist,

classist,

r*cist,

and h*m*.

Those accusations are not easy to forget.

The board agrees with me on that.

Politics are dynamic.

We're all susceptible to that.

-My résumé is impeccable.
-As is mine.

Except, no scandal precedes me.

Have you seen the memes of you?

They portray you as Hitler.

Drop out of the race.

Accept my offer.

You have a fabulous
governance plan, which,

combined with the one I have,

can help us, with all certainty,
to build an excellent administration.

And once I'm elected president,
you can choose whatever you want.

Any department.

Washington's embassy.

Or Paris's embassy.

And as soon as
my administration concludes,

I guarantee you I'll confirm you
as my successor.

The embarrassing scandal
will most likely be forgotten by then,

so you can become the next president
of this country after me.

I think you're celebrating prematurely.

The board will choose the candidate
who has the people's support.

Do you really think it'll be you?

I don't think so.

I know it.

Well, best of luck to you.

And I encourage you
to lower your expectations.

Accept my offer.

[softly] Horacio.

Patricia needs security
before the police arrive.

I'll send Diego Ruiz's photo.
He's the husband.

He can't be near her
under any circumstances.

Fine.

I'll stand by.

Thank you.

Yoana,

what about Patricia's kids?

Were they picked up?

Please, take them to the shelter.

Okay.

Turn right here.

[Karen] Hi.

Are they there?

And how is Patricia doing?

[exhales]

What's the prognosis?

Yes, I'm on my way.

Fine.

Of course, Mr. Lucho.

And can you imagine
Víctor Rodríguez attending

the Avocado Festival?
The king of spite!

It's just a matter of getting together
to seal the deal.

Oh, sure. I'll be there.

Two shots? That's it?

[laughs] Well, it's God's will.

See you there. Bye-bye.

Hey, what's up?

-Do you have five minutes?
-Yes, yes.

-Come on, spill it.
-Uh…

[exhales]

I'm leaving.

When? Where to?
When do you come back? "Víctor will…"

No, I'm leaving the band.

[intriguing music]

What?

What… do you mean? How come?
Why? Sit down, will you?

Yes, uh…

Nothing happened, it's just that…

No, tell me, did you have any problems
with Víctor or Jair? What happened?

No, no, no problems at all.

Listen, I'm really grateful
to you and Víctor

for giving me so many opportunities.
I really am.

But…?

But I feel stuck.

-"Stuck"?
-Yes.

Come on, girl. [laughs]

Oh, please, Betty.
We're releasing the second album.

The launch will be amazing for all of us.

Just bear with me, dear.
You got me there.

Well, yes, but it's Víctor's album.

And I don't want to be
a backup singer forever.

-Of course not.
-I'm capable of more, right?

Obviously, yes.

But the question is,
do you feel you have the pizzazz

to debut as a soloist?

I do, and I have the voice to do it.

-I know.
-What I don't have

is a manger as cool as you.

But is someone stealing you?

Has anyone approached you?

-[Betty] No.
-We can talk, dear.

It's not that.

Let's see if I understand.

Does Víctor have to do with your decision?

[melancholic music]

No.

Betty, we're both big girls, dear.

We care for each other because we never
beat around the bush, just how I like it.

Is this because of Víctor?

I know you still have the hots for my son.

Tell me.

Just a little.

But not entirely because of him.

[exhales]

[music fades]

[Karen] Thank you.

[alarm beeps]

Hello.

-I'm here for Patricia Arenas.
-Hello, my man.

-Hi.
-How's Patricia?

-Being examined.
-And where's Esteban?

Wrapping up the hospital paperwork.

[Víctor] Goodbye. Good day.

-How do you do?
-Hello.

Hi, I'm Víctor Rodríguez.

-Lidia.
-[Karen] Are the police here?

Lidia, are the police here?

Yes, they're trying to take Patricia's
statement, if she's willing to cooperate.

What do you mean? Isn't that a given?

It's not.

He's beaten her many times
and she still lives with him.

There are things
I really can't wrap my head around.

How can she still live with him?

Patricia's an abused woman.

And he's sick.

He's a manipulative narcissist,
and she totally depends on him.

That's so odd.

-I find this whole situation so odd.
-[Esteban] Karen.

Can you come along?

Thanks for the ride.

[woman cries]

So, how are you?

-[phone rings]
-Very well.

-I'll take this call.
-Yes.

Thanks.

Excuse me.

Hello?

My dear Víctor.

I'm listening.

Our conversation was cut short, my man.

Let's get a drink sometime.

I actually don't drink.

Oh, I didn't know.

But you can just talk to me now.

My schedule is completely full right now.

Well, listen, I think I was too focused
on what I had to say to you,

such as my governance plan,

but I failed to mention
how it would benefit you.

So…

how would it be beneficial to me?

I don't know.
With a deal that makes you happy.

What kind of deal?

You tell me what would satisfy you.

Sorry, Alexander,
but if you're offering me money,

I don't need it, thank God.

Therefore… I don't know.

How can you think that?

Who do you think I am?
What do you think I'm proposing?

Okay, then, what are you talking about?

What I'm saying is that, if you back me,

maybe you can extend your fan base.

Your popularity will grow.

Go on the road with me and play
at the best venues in the country.

Even where people don't know you.

Listen, I have someone in charge of that,

namely, my manager.

Sounds good, then…

we can set things up with her.

Listen, Alexander, I frankly
don't want you to waste your time,

and I don't want to waste mine, either.

Honestly, I'm not interested.

Many thanks. Goodbye.

-Good afternoon.
-Hello.

-How are you doing, ma'am?
-How are you?

-Let me hug you.
-I appreciate it.

Would you be a darling
and take a selfie with me?

Sure, it'd be my pleasure.
Come on, let's take a selfie.

-I'll take it.
-[shutter clicks]

It was such an awkward situation.
It was embarrassing with Víctor.

Well, I frankly find it very weird

that he'd want Víctor's help.

Because his own words were

that Kitty was way out of his league.

-Did he say that?
-Yes, he did.

At the party.

Still, he must be doing that
to get more votes, right?

It may be fine as long as he
doesn't use Kitty to try

to convince him.

It won't happen
because things between Kitty

and Víctor didn't end well.

Right now, Kitty has a bigger problem
to worry about with the bank.

What happened?

She invested money, which was stolen,
and she must pay installments.

No.

Good day.

Karen Arbeláez from the Autonomous
Women Foundation to see Patricia.

I'm Esteban Arbeláez,
Mrs. Patricia's lawyer.

-To your left.
-Thank you.

-[doctor] Mrs. Karen?
-That's me, sir.

-The patient asked to see you alone.
-Thank you.

-I'll be right back.
-Okay.

[monitor beeping]

[dark, dramatic music]

[sighs]

[music turns somber]

[music fades]

I finally made Fernán's dream come true.

-[Doris] Did you negotiate an increase?
-No.

Well, that was a given.

Dani, you're trying to buy love.
You know that, right?

No, I'm not trying to buy love, Doris.

I'm doing it because I want to help Kitty.

Besides, it's a loan.

I'm not just giving it away to her.

And it's only part of the ranch.
The rest, I'll get to yield.

Hold on, I talked to Karen,
and I explained to her what's going on.

Let them sort this out by themselves.
Please, don't interfere.

Doris, if Kitty needs the money,
I'll lend it to her.

And who… will guarantee
that you'll be paid? Who, huh?

You're living in Mexico.

I won't go back to Mexico. I'll stay here.

So, won't you finish your specialization?

-I'll finish it here.
-What about all your stuff?

Listen, what I'll do is go back
to surrender the apartment,

get my clothes,
talk to the university, and fly back.

Listen, I'm asking you
to reconsider, please.

You're putting your life and future
on the line

for someone who you don't even know
you'll have a chance with.

I thought it through already, Doris.
I'm at peace with my decision.

Okay then.

I'll call you when I'm back in Bogotá.
Big hug.

[soft, dramatic music]

[Gisela] That dessert looks good.

Looks really good.

Care to share?

Sure. Allow me.

Oh, what a gentleman.

Thanks.

[intriguing music]

[horse neighs]

[music fades]

You finally got this settled, huh?

Daniel bartered a cow for a sack of rice.

Unbelievable.

It's unbelievable that so many of my kids
are morons.

But the most moronic is Daniel.

Well, he thinks he's such a smart-a*s.

Stupid punk.

You'll help me make him aware of that.

How?

You'll feed him information so he realizes
what he did was stupid.

He shouldn't know it came from me.

[phone rings]

Today is "Moron Day."

Hello?

My dear Fernán.

Mr. Orduz, congratulations are in order.

I hear my son got you…

uh…

that online thing.

He got you trending.

[chuckles]

You kind of overdid it, huh?

Should the party opt for Horacio
as their candidate,

I'd love to see you deal with him.

These things involve risk-taking.

Unless you have a better idea.

I'll get your highway built.
I'll make it 5G, just as you want.

But tell your son to restore
my good standing

with an article that makes me look good.

Huh.

[suspenseful music]

Get the highway in your development plan,

and then we'll talk.

I'm pretty sure you finished high school,

since you're loaded,
but I'll explain it again.

It's not doable.
The plan has been approved.

I don't care.

Add a subsection, a paragraph
or an annex. Anything.

Those loopholes you like.

[mouthing profanities]

Until I see it as part
of your governance plan,

until I see the highway building plan
duly signed

by environmental authorities,
I won't move a finger.

Fernán, listen, that takes time.

Well, then get cracking on it, man.

Time goes by and you keep losing votes.

Huh?

Jeez, what a dumbass.

So, you travel all the time?

[Gisela] Yes.

You get to see places
and have a good time,

but it also gets old.

[Daniel] Why?

I want a permanent place.

Where I can put down roots.

Where I can have friends.

Or settle down?

[exclaims]

Except no kids.

That's not for me.

What about you?

Do you have kids?
Do you want to have them?

Yes, I'd like that.

I can't picture Fernán…
with grandchildren.

He'd be the last person I'd tell about it.

Why?

Because the further away I am
from him, the better.

Is he that bad?

Yes. Frankly, he is, Gisela.

He may not appear as such to you, but…

you don't really know him yet.

I find him a bit proud, stubborn.

One needs to find the right approach.

-You know what?
-[Gisela] Hmm?

He acts like that
because he's doing business.

And he's clearly
looking for something else.

He's a man.

A piece of advice?

Sell the young bulls

and make a run for it.

There hasn't been a single man
that's made me run away.

[man] Mrs. María.

How are things?
Can I have a coffee, please?

-María.
-Mr. Daniel.

-How have you been?
-How are you?

Very well. What about you?

Fine, sir.

What brings you here?

I was grocery shopping at the market
and felt like having a coffee.

-Do you know each other? Gisela. María.
-Sure.

-How are you?
-Fine, thank you.

[tense music]

Will you be going back to the ranch?

No, never again.

Don't say that.
You may have to go back on your word.

There's nothing there
that I'm interested in.

It's nice to see you, Daniel.

Same here, María.

-Take care.
-You too. Excuse me.

-Have a good one.
-[María] Thanks.

I am here.

I mean, for now.

While your dad buys the young bulls
from me.

Cheers.

Cheers.

One more?

[monitor beeps]

He was very drunk.

He didn't realize what he was doing.

He knows what he's doing, Patricia.

He drinks and gets like that,

but the next day he doesn't even remember
what happened.

Patricia, he knows drinking
makes him lose control,

and he still does it.

He's responsible.

This time, he broke your arm.

Next time, he'll k*ll you.

What about your kids?

Will they live with him?
They'll live without you.

And it's very likely
they'll end up taking after him.

No, that won't happen.

You must report him, Patricia.

That will make it worse.

Then leave him.

If he finds me, he'll k*ll me for sure.

Listen,

your kids are at the foundation's shelter.

You can go there with them.

You know we'll help with everything
you may need, Patricia.

Look, if you don't feel ready
to report him…

then leave him.

You must make a decision, Patricia.

You can't wait any longer.

Are you sure Patricia's husband
doesn't have a criminal record?

We're investigating, but until now,
no one has reported him.

Let's wait and see.

She won't do it.

If the victim doesn't file a report,
there's nothing we can do.

Could there be a neighbor

or someone who saw something
and can corroborate it?

That's the problem, they either didn't see
anything or simply won't talk.

That is what's happened
since the first time Diego beat her.

If there's no report,
witnesses or evidence,

it's impossible for us
to take any legal action against him.

How did you like it?

[Víctor] Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for listening.
Excuse me for a second.

That was a nice concert.

Well, you see, music makes pain
more tolerable.

That's what my mom says.

Karen, I…

wanted to apologize to you.

I thought about it and I went too far
with what I said to you about Alexander.

-I'm really sorry.
-No, no worries.

I did exactly the same with you and Kitty.

Does that mean we're good?

We are.

-We're even.
-Right.

-Do you want a ride anywhere?
-No, thanks.

I'll go back to Patricia.

Well,

I hope you can convince her
to report her husband.

I hope so.

The thing is,
many women don't do it, Víctor.

I understand them.
When the justice system fails them,

consequences are even worse.

Speaking of justice,

isn't there something similar
to the witness protection program

for battered women?

That's what we're trying to set up
at the foundation

with the Women Against Violence program.

Women Against Violence?
Hmm… And what is that about?

It's basically a program that would allow
us to relocate women to other cities,

ensure housing and jobs for them,
and education for their kids.

We've accomplished it several times.

The thing is,
we're receiving less and less donations.

And the few we get we need to divide

among the women that come to us for help.

That sucks.

-Well, I'll go back in.
-[Víctor] Okay.

Goodbye.

Víctor.

If I married Alexander

and support his campaign,
it's because I believe in him.

And I think it can improve
many people's lives.

I see.

That still won't convince me
to join his campaign.

[tender music]

Listen, it's not personal.
It's just that…

me and politics are not a good match.
That's why.

Relax, I'm not trying to make you do it.

-I just wanted you to know.
-Perfect.

Please, talk to Kitty.

-Don't leave things like that.
-Will do.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Mrs. Mercedes, I should go.
It was a pleasure to meet you.

-Don't get jealous.
-The pleasure is all mine.

-Okay, bye.
-Bye.

[Víctor] Goodbye. Have a nice day.

-Many thanks for listening.
-[Mercedes] Thanks.

[music fades]

[door closes]

I didn't like it one bit to see Daniel

talking to that woman Gisela
over at the hotel.

I hope he's serious about not wanting
to come back here for a while.

Well, I think we'll see him more often.

At least for a while.

Why do you say that?

This time, Dad really wronged Daniel,
and he wants to make him aware of it.

What happened?

It's about the inheritance.

But it's the same as always.

No, Mom.

This time, it's bad.

Daniel has endured a lot,

but I'm sure this time he'll try to find
a way to get back at Dad.

-And how?
-I don't know.

Because he hasn't found out.
But tomorrow, tops, he will.

Something tells me that this time,

he'll hit Fernán
where it hurts him the most.

-[Fernán] Is it all there?
-100%.

Those young bulls are yours now.

So, will you split that 50-50
with your partner?

Why do you ask?

Plus the cost of the cattle…
So, how much will you end up making?

Will you compete with me?

-No.
-[Gisela] Hmm.

I may offer you a job
where you'll earn more money.

I don't work for anyone.

[tense music]

You haven't tried it with me.

What do you propose?

You show me

how good you are at this.

I'll increase your workload
based on performance.

"How good" I am at this?

You need to know going in,

I don't milk cows, I don't clean
or serve coffee, either.

It's pretty clear to me
that you're meant for bigger things.

Hmm?

Well, so?

Are you in?

Persuade me.

It was a pleasure to do business with you.

Same here.

[suspenseful music]

Kitty, the worst part is
you kept us in the dark.

I know, Karen, but it's a problem
I need to solve myself.

So, are we completely useless to you?

No, but since I was the one who messed up,
I must find a solution.

Where will you get the money from?

I'm asking other banks for a loan.

And how will you pay for it?

I'll get investors.

I'll make it happen
for the renewable energy project.

You know that takes time, right?

You can't always save my life.

I appreciate your concern.
And if it comes to that,

I will have to ask you for help.
But not for now.

That's odd because this morning
you did ask for my help with Víctor.

[dramatic music]

And just so you know, he'll contact you.

Those are two totally unrelated issues.
Don't mix them up.

I promised you and Alexander
that I won't let you down.

And I'll do just that.

[music fades]

Okay, then we sell the cattle
we have left,

and leave this place.

What if we stay longer?

Stay longer? Why or what for?

Aren't you tired of traveling so much?

What I'm tired of is being
in the same place, and not doing anything.

Don't you want a house of our own?

A place to go back to every night?

No, Gisela.
Don't even waste your time.

I like living like this,
and you met me this way,

so I don't intend to change.

[intriguing music]

[sighs]

[phone rings]

Hello?

-Who?
-[intriguing music]

What is it, Marta?

Mrs. Gisela, this is from Mr. Fernán,

the man who is outside.

[music intensifies]

Marta, do me a favor.

Tell him I really appreciate it, but that
things don't work like that with me.

Yes, ma'am.

[suspenseful music]

Mr. Fernán,

Mrs. Gisela says
she really appreciates it,

but that things don't work like that
with her.

Excuse me.

[music intensifies]

And then, Julián's dad told us
a horror story

that ended up being funny.

-Was it good?
-Yes.

Well, maybe we can invite Julián over
for a sleepover.

Would you like that?

More or less.

Why's that?

Because Julián's dad
actually plays with us.

Thank you.

You're right, my boy.

Your dad has been very busy
with the campaign, right?

He's been busy for a long time.

That salmon will get cold.

You can tell me

-Julián's father's story.
-Yes.

[footsteps approaching]

What do you think?

Is the presentation better?

[dramatic musical stinger]

[Doris] Do you want more wine?

No.

Okay.

The key lime pie I made for you
is to die for, Esteban.

You'll love it. [giggles]

Did he also get salmon?

[dark, dramatic music]

Of course not.

Did you bring him home?

Did you have sex in our bed?

I can't believe it.

I cannot believe it.

How many times did you have sex?

Did you laugh at me
while you were in bed?

Stop it.

I wholeheartedly regret it.
I've said it a hundred times.

[screams] And will that fix things?

No, it won't. Forgive me.
You're attaching too much importance…

What does that mean?

That you'll do it again
because it's unimportant to you?

It is important.

You're impossible.

I mean it.

[music fades]

[Karen] We kept waiting for you
during lunch.

[mutters] I wasn't hungry.

At least to keep us company.

Right now, I have much more
pressing matters to tend to than…

Than to spend time with Sergio and me?

Sergio misses you, Alexander.
You've distanced yourself from him.

Well, sorry.

But from the beginning,
we knew we'd have to make

sacrifices for this campaign, all of us.

Yes, but your relationship with your son
can't be one of those sacrifices.

Please, Karen.

For once in your life,

support me, motivate me.
Is that too much to ask?

I'm supporting you, Alexander.

Even when you do things I don't like,
like what happened with Víctor.

But if your political career
involves hurting Sergio…

Becoming this country's president
means hurting Sergio?

Is that what you're trying to say?

If you stop being a father to Sergio,

I'll stop supporting you ASAP.

Unbelievable.

-"Unbelievable"?
-What you're saying is unbelievable.

Unbelievable that you want to be president
representing the United Family party

when your own family
is the least of your priorities.

[dramatic music]

[music fades]

[doorbell rings]

-[Kitty] Hi.
-Hi, how are you?

-Good, and you? Come in.
-Thanks.

I'm still hungover,
I feel like my head will explode.

I intended to cancel your visit.

Well, don't worry, because…

this won't take long.

I don't want things to end badly
between us.

You don't want anything serious either.

Listen,

you and I were seeing and calling
each other just to hang out.

I thought things between us
could actually work.

Then, what happened?

What happened is

I'm not feeling the way I should.

The way a woman like you deserves.

And I don't want to waste your time.

I feel it's unfair to you and to me.

Besides…

I don't think
you're in love with me, either.

How would you know?

Why…

when you introduced me to your friends,

you introduced me as Víctor Rodríguez,
the singer,

instead of, simply,

as Víctor?

[intriguing music]

Because it sounds cooler to say
I'm a singer, right?

There's your answer.

Is it possible this decision
has to do with my sister?
