FORBIDDEN WOMAN

Did you really ask for a car?

I could have given you a ride.

We could have given you a ride.

I'd rather you stay
and take care of Daniel.

And I'd rather you didn't overreact.
Look at everything you've done today.

Honey, we won't be long.

I'll tell you if I come back
or if we meet in Bogotá.

Please. Let me know
as soon as you get there.

I love you.

[suspenseful music]

I love you too.

Take care.

Iván, thank you for everything
you're doing for us.

Your future partner will be very lucky.

Take care of him.

Hey, I love you.

["Venga a Esta Mesa" theme on the radio]

Could you turn up the volume a bit?

Thank you.

♪ …But come over here, buddy ♪

♪ And your bitterness
Will be out the door ♪

What happens now?

I want to sell the ranch
as soon as possible.

You are offering it to my dad?

That's not what I want, Iván.

But you know what? I'll do it for Kitty.
I want us to go to Mexico soon.

If anyone else wants to buy it
for a lower price,

I'll take it.

I'll sell it.

So, it's definitely Mexico.

Yes, that's the idea after we get married.

Wasn't it a bit early to propose to her?

Do you think so?

Daniel, are you ready
to let go of the fight

you're having with my dad over Kitty?

Yes, Iván, I am.

I'm willing to do anything for Kitty.

What?

Iván.

I discovered something serious
about my dad.

If you're going to say
he hired the two th*gs who attacked me,

that's no news to me.

So, what is it?

Then what is it?

You've always been right.

Your mom didn't commit suicide.

My dad k*lled her.

[music sting]

I love this one.

I think this dress
would look great on you.

No, I don't like the cut,
and I don't like that belt either.

Okay, okay. Hmm…

Siren cut.

You have a beautiful body,
it would look fantastic on you.

I can't choose any.

She told him she had
the original coroner's report

and the coroner's confession,

and that she would make it
public if anything happened to her.

I had to get away,

because if I stayed longer,
they'd know I was there.

When did you find out, Iván?

Yesterday, the day before.

I was going to tell you.

I thought it was only fair
that you found out,

but there's the wedding and Kitty,

so I didn't know when to tell you.

Besides, I didn't know how to
behave, and I didn't think I should…

Daniel, Daniel. No, no. Hey, hey, hey.

Okay, wait, wait.

-What are you going to do?
-What do you think?

Keep it together, man.

This way, you're giving my dad
a head start.

He doesn't know you know.

-I don't care. Move!
-He'll have questions.

[upbeat music]

[alarm beeping]

Daniel, he's not going to… Daniel.

No, hey. Oh, Daniel. Daniel, Daniel.

[Iván grunts]

I'll call you to arrange the measurements.

Yes, thank you, Ágata.
I really liked that one.

-I love it.
-See you.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Well. How did the lady do?

Fine. I chose one.

Yes? Tell that to your face.

It looks like you have a toothache,

not like you're choosing a wedding dress.

What's wrong? Aren't you happy?

Your children aren't happy.

-It's just Doris.
-Hmm.

Doris is more than enough for me.

I don't know what Iván or Daniel think.

No, no. Don't worry about them.

I talked to Doris, and
she said she'd do her part. Hm?

But I know she's faking it.

Look, just being able to get along
is enough.

It's more than enough for me.

Fernán, don't you understand?

I won't just marry you,
I'll marry your family.

I don't want to put up
with their bad attitude.

I'm justifying my actions
and defending my position.

Okay, Gisela. Listen.

I don't live with my children.

Doris will leave once I get married.

Iván?

He comes here only when someone dies.

You know how things work with Daniel.

He's only at the wedding by chance.

So, what's there to worry about?

Doris will make an effort.

So, please, do the same.

You flare up at the slightest thing.

As long as they don't provoke me.

Be patient. Think before you answer.

Can you do that for me?

-Mom. I can't stand this.
-Oh.

I could do this on social media,
at my own pace, with no one around.

No, we'll do it in the interview.

-Should we rehearse again?
-No, no. Enough.

One more thing.

Go back to therapy.

Therapy, Mom?

Therapy? I don't need therapy.

Yes, you do. You need to go.
At least for a while, Víctor.

You opened a door that
I thought would never be opened again.

This is distressing for all of us,
for me, and for all of us.

This can't happen again.

[cell phone ringing]

What's up, Dani?

She went up already?

Yes. She's fine.

Karen is on her way here.

[suspenseful music]

-Amalia.
-[Amalia] Karen, how are you?

Hi, Víctor.

Well, I'll leave you to it.
Please, don't take long.

-I won't.
-Please.

I'm sorry to barge in.

I know what I'm doing is horrible.

I wish I could explain
so you'd understand…

No, I got it.

What are you doing here?

I heard about your interview.

They'll ask about me.

[Víctor] I can't believe it.

That's what you care about.

That,

and you, drinking again.

Karen,

I'm asking you, please,

to stay out of my life.

I'm sorry.

You're right.

Víctor,

I'm begging you.

Don't mention me in that interview.

Why not say it?

It's not that.

In fact, if you want to say
that I'm the worst woman in the world,

I wouldn't care.

I deserve that.

I don't care what people think of me.

Actually, I agree.

Then what?

I need you to do this

for the foundation and for Sergio.

-I wish you understood why I'm doing this…
-I do.

It's because you're just like Alexander,
or worse.

You're not the person I knew.

The decision is yours.

-[door opens]
-[Amalia] Shall we go?

-Yes. Let's go.
-I'm going to get my things.

I have things to do. Please.

[suspenseful music]

[voicemail] The cellphone
you are trying to reach

is turned off.

[suspenseful music continues]

-Did the interview start?
-[Lidia] In a bit.

How did it go?

I think I made the biggest mistake
of my life.

[cell phone ringing]

Karen's not answering.

It's starting.

Good afternoon to all our viewers.

We have a special guest
who's been at the center of attention

for the past few weeks

not only because of his talent.

It's a pleasure to welcome

the singer Víctor Rodríguez
to Conversations with Martina.

Víctor, welcome.

Hello, everyone who's tuning in.

And thank you, Martina.

Thank you for having me.

Thank you for accepting my invitation.

Well, a lot has happened lately,

and I have a lot to ask you.

That's why I'm here,
to answer all those questions.

[Iván] Daniel. Daniel. Daniel.
Dani, Dani, Dani.

-Don't touch me!
-You can't do anything now!

Calm down. Calm down, Daniel.
Please calm down, Daniel.

You can't do anything.
You'll get thrown in jail.

I don't care!

Daniel, damn it, come to your senses!

He'll only get away with this, as usual.

Daniel, don't be an idiot. Listen to me.

-[Doris] Daniel!
-[Iván] Help!

Dani!

María, quick! Help!

-[María] What happened?
-[Doris] What happened?

-[Doris] What's wrong?
-Help.

[Doris] Help!

Gerardo!

He's been on the news
because of the surprising decision made

to stop the release of his second album

for a full redesign.

As I mentioned last time
when I was on the show,

I felt that… it wasn't complete,

that something was missing,
and I was doing something

just to get it done
and I wanted to take care of it.

And now, are you satisfied
with the result?

I'm more than satisfied, I'm happy.

But anyway, the audience
has the last word.

Hmm.

Speaking of the public,

your last public appearance raised
a lot of controversy.

I know.

Your fans were very upset

after they saw you drinking,

knowing that you had
an addiction problem in the past.

Not just my fans.

Me too.

I feel terrible, I had a relapse,
I made a mistake.

And what happens after a relapse?

You start again with a different attitude,

and do your best
so it doesn't happen again.

That's what I'm doing.

It was clear you were heartbroken
over a woman,

and you wrote her songs.

Yes, that's right.

It's hard not to think that this woman

who you dedicated songs to

influenced the redesign of your album.

That's right, but she wasn't the one
who suggested it.

What do you mean?

I mean, thanks to what I've been through,

because of everything I felt,

I've reconsidered a
lot of what I believe in today.

And, I felt that I had to write songs
about it all.

Well, who's that amazing woman?

She…

She's an amazing woman,

she's talented,

she's… remarkable,

she's good at everything she does,
even her work is… She's amazing.

Well, but Wonder Woman must have a name.

Who is it?

Given the fact that
you've been on the news because of her,

that these things you're feeling
started when you met her

or should I say, when you saved her life.

That woman has to be
Karen Arbeláez, right?

Yes,

it's true that Karen
is an exceptional woman,

but she and I think very differently.

We have very different views on life,

so I'm sorry to disappoint you.

It's not Karen.

Hmm.

The facts say otherwise.

Let's talk about the facts.

It's true that we met
in an extraordinary situation

and I got to know
her work with the foundation.

I was interested, in fact,
I wanted to help them, but that's it.

Those are the facts.

The rest are just interpretations.

It's hard to believe you.

Because you already have
your own interpretation.

If it's not Karen, then who is that woman?

Beatriz Bermúdez.

Betty.

She's a very talented singer.

She's k*lling it.

I'm sure she'll win the hearts
of all the Colombians.

She’s the reason I’m like this.

Víctor?

I saw Karen leaving.

She asked me not to mention her
in the interview.

-Can you believe that?
-But were you going to do it?

What for? Of course not,
but I hate that she asked for that.

Not long ago, she was willing
to get a divorce

and fight for what we had,

and now she's
telling me not to tarnish her name?

Can you believe that?

What are you going to say?

I don't know.

I'll just say it's someone else,
and not mention any names.

It's obvious it's her.

Look, Víctor.

It's obvious.

And you know how this journalist is.

She won't leave you alone
until you tell something.

Then what?

Say it's me.

How can you think I'd involve you in this?

You and I have a history,
don't we? They'll believe it.

Look, I'll back you up if they ask.

I don't know.

Víctor, this can help both of us.

It helps me with the album release.

We both win.

-Betty, you're putting yourself at risk.
-Oh.

I don't know if gossip is a good idea

right before launching your career.

Oh, Jair. Stop nagging, okay?

You know the saying: "Talk well or bad,
but talk well."

Yes, but what for? To be Víctor's shadow?

People will remember you as his ex,

and the one who broke his heart,

but not because of the artist you are.

I wasn't going to abandon him. Okay?

-Thanks again.
-Yes.

Greetings to the director.

Guys, thank you again.

How did this happen?

Don't worry, Betty knew.

-Actually, it was her idea.
-But she should have told me.

Yes, it occurred to me
when I was on the show.

-I thought it was a good idea.
-But you had to tell me, Víctor.

I manage both of you,
and this can affect you.

-You're right. We didn't think about that.
-No, you didn't.

Screwed and stupid. Great!

Well, look on the bright side.

We can put an end to you-know-who, right?

Yes, I hope so.

God willing. But you did scare me.

-Mission accomplished.
-It was a miracle.

It could have been worse.

Karen knows what's at stake.

We can forget about that
and focus on what's important,

on the campaign.

So she can keep playing house.

Opinions are divided into one…

Sixty-forty.

A 60% believe Víctor,

and a 40% insist that the woman
he's in love with, is you.

Oh, Lidia.
I need this gossip to pass quickly.

And it will.

It will because
you won't see each other again.

[melancholy music]

I feel so bad.

It hurts so much.

I feel so guilty to see Víctor like this.

I understand you feel that way,

but it's to protect him.

Oh, Lidia.

What I told Víctor is true.

I was willing
to ask Alexander for a divorce.

Face the consequences
and live our relationship fully.

I saw a future with him.

I imagined a family.

Víctor, Sergio and me.

I thought it was possible.

And beautiful.

Víctor doesn't deserve
what I'm doing to him.

Neither of you deserve that, Karen.

There won't be a honeymoon.

Why?

Because I can't leave
this ranch alone for so long.

-That's Gerardo's job.
-[Fernán laughs]

You wanted Gerardo's job,
and now you want to dump him.

No, it's just for a few days.
We can't miss the honeymoon.

Are we going to love each other there
more than here?

No, but I want us to have a few days
just for the two of us.

Don't worry,

as soon as my kids leave,
we'll have all the time in the world.

What you should do
is move your things to my room,

that's our room now.

Look at that.

What's Daniel doing here?

It's about one of your patients,
Daniel Caballero,

he just had a relapse.

Tell him to call us as soon as possible,
okay? It's urgent.

Thank you.

What happened?

What happened to Daniel?

Don't ask me to calm down, Iván.

I want to destroy Fernán.

Take a look at yourself.

You can't do anything.

-Calm down.
-He k*lled my mother.

If you keep acting like this,
you'll never see him pay for that.

I want to see him dead.

Oh, death is enough for you.

For what he did to my mom?

It's not death, Daniel. It's jail.

That's where he should go.

Now, I don't know
if a death certificate alone

will be enough
to open a case against Fernán.

We need to see that coroner's confession.

No, no.

No, we need to find both things,

and you don't know
who Fernán talked to about all this.

We'll find that. Give me some time.

I don't have time.

Daniel,

don't insist on attacking my dad.

You can't face him now,

otherwise he'll find
the evidence first and destroy it.

Or do you want to ruin
the best chance you've had

to get back at him
just because you're in a hurry?

Why are you helping me?

[music sting]

-You've always been on Fernán's side.
-Because you've always told the truth.

I never believed you.

[knocking on door]

What happened?

Those who made the attack
planned to return to finish him off.

But fortunately,
someone called to warn him.

What do you mean?

Who told you?

We don't know who called, but…

fortunately, they told him
to get out of there as soon as possible.

Gerardo, something very serious happened.

-What exactly?
-I didn't understand.

Daniel was frantic and looking for Fernán.

Iván tried to stop him.

They argued and then Daniel collapsed,

and we helped him get into the house.

-What was it?
-I've never seen him like that.

He was furious. He was out of his mind.

Who knows what's wrong with him?

I don't have a good feeling about this.

What do you mean, Mom?

I don't know, Gerardo.

I think a tragedy is going to happen here.

-The doctor will be here in 20 minutes.
-[Gisela] What's wrong with Daniel?

It's just that…

-Daniel was threatened again.
-What?

-Why didn't anyone tell me?
-Honey, we didn't want to worry you.

Dad, I live here. I could have found out.

What matters is that they're here
safe and sound.

-We have to call the police.
-I'll take care of that.

Gerardo, will you come with me?

Has Daniel been threatened again?

What? Who?

Who else knows we sent
someone to scare him?

Ramiro's friend,
the one he did the job with.

How do we find him?

-I don't know.
-What do you mean?

You hired these people.
I need you to find them.

But I don't think they did it.

Why would they threaten Daniel again?

Do you know why?

They want money. Yes, they play dumb.

They're fishing in troubled waters.

What I don't understand
is who made the call.

Who else knows what we did?

No one.

It could have been someone
who had nothing to do

and is taking advantage
of the opportunity, or a corrupt cop

who found out about Daniel's complaint
at the station and wants something.

What do I know?

Look, Gerardo,

I need to know what happened.

Hmm?

Try to find out.

[Doris] Why didn't you tell me
about the threat?

Didn't you see how Dani was?

Why did you come in different cars?

To bring them both at once.

Hmm.

Why were you arguing?

-No, we weren't.
-Yes, you were arguing.

Before Daniel fainted, I saw you.

Why?

Why?

There's something else here.

It was Dad, Doris.

Dad did what?

The one who hired the guys
who almost k*lled me.

It's hard.

It's hard to go over this again.

I'm really sorry, but it's the truth.

Is that true?

It's not.

It's not.

No, this isn't true.

No.

No, it can't be true.

Go to the police station

and ask Ramiro if he made the call

or if it was one of his cronies,
or who's f*cking up our lives.

Remind him he's dealing with
Fernán Caballero

and what happens to people who mess up.

Call me when he's out.

Thank you for going to the interview.
I know you didn't feel like it.

But sometimes you have to deal
with problems like that, Víctor,

straight to the point, right?

-Yes, that's better.
-[Amalia] Mm-hm.

Oh, no.

It makes me sad to know that
I brought this sadness into your life.

What are you talking about?

I was the one who introduced you to Karen.

Oh, no. Wait a minute.

Please don't blame yourself, okay?

Guilt or no guilt, I screwed up.

Who warned me from the start
not to go there?

But you know what?

The more I think about it,

I don't regret anything that happened.

Karen made me feel things
I'd never felt before.

She made me think,
she made me write like never before.

I think she changed my life.

You're a badass.

But even if we get help
from some of the sponsors,

we'll have to cancel some of the programs.

Which ones?

"Woman Against Violence."
That's the hardest one for us.

It's the most important one.

Yes, Karen, but relocating women

with their families in other cities,
is costing us a lot of money.

That one stays.
It's the one with the best results.

Yes, but we don't have the budget
to keep doing it.

We still have Alexander's offer.

[Esteban] You rejected it yourself,
and for obvious reasons.

Look, I need Alexander
to stop seeing me as his enemy,

to lower his guard and make a mistake.

Alexander, in his madness,
wants us to get along again,

to be the same as we used to be.

I need him to trust me again,

so the best is to accept
the help from the foundation.

Karen, you know that's crazy.
In fact, it's dangerous for you.

Alexander will take the foundation
and get it into legal trouble.

He'll do it to manipulate you.

Esteban,

we won't take any money
from Alexander or the party.

Alexander won't get involved
in the foundation.

Then what?

We'll accept the help of our contacts.

[Kitty] Hello.

-[Karen] Oh!
-[Esteban] What a surprise!

[Kitty] How are you?

We almost had to do a second surgery.

That's why we ask the patients
to rest and avoid the strain.

Next time, you won't be so lucky.

Take care, please.

[dramatic music]

See you later.

[Iván] That's what they told Daniel,
but that doesn't mean it's true.

-[Doris] Did you hear the call?
-[Iván] No. No.

[Doris] So, what he's saying is true?

I don't think Daniel would lie
about something so delicate.

I don't know, Iván.

He always blames my dad
for everything that happens to him.

What if this time he's making it up

to prove that what he's saying is true?

No, I do think someone told him that.

What?

That my dad is responsible?

Yes, but that doesn't mean it's true.
I insist.

Let's think about it.

They caught one of the criminals
who tried to k*ll Daniel.

I'm sure the others are scared to death

and they're looking for someone to blame.

[Doris] Well, yes. Maybe.

Iván,

are you telling me the truth?

I can't think of any other theory
right now.

Because you're acting weird.

Or is it related to everything
that's going on?

Doris, this just happened.

Don't say anything to my dad, please,

until we get some clarity.
I beg you, Doris.

Is the doctor out?

The person who made the anonymous call
to Daniel

is blaming you for the attack.

Really?

Huh? Now they’re just making stuff up.

Why would they make it up? Who made it up?

I don't know. What for?

To mess with the investigation,
to complicate things.

Our past makes me look suspicious.

Those rumors are just corroborating
the hypothesis.

That's what I told her.

No. Then it's a drag.

Are you sure you're okay?

I don't know, you sound agitated.

You were right. I think I went too far.

You have to take care of yourself.

You have to be perfect
for when we get married.

Hello?

Yes, I'll be careful.

I promise.

Hey,

we're not telling Kitty about
what's going on with Alexander yet.

But she'll find out.

Yes, I know,
but I don't want to ruin her moment.

Besides, Kitty can't do anything about it.

Or she'll end up making a mistake to help.

Honestly, I don't feel like I
can face reality in front of Kitty.

Well, then let's wait.

Let's do what I told you about Alexander.

We need the money,
and I need some peace in my house.

Whether it's for strategy,

for my mental health,
but mostly, for Sergio.

[clears throat]

How late are you going to work?

We're almost done.

That's great. I'm starving.

Can I stay at your place?

Why don't you stay at your apartment?
I can sleep on the couch, no problem.

No, don't worry.

There's no problem.
Besides, you're all settled there.

I want Sergio to tell me
everything about the trip.

[Iván] So, you're not saying anything?

I promised that I would stay away
from my dad

and that I'd choose
her over everything else.

I can't do the opposite.

But you're not going to Mexico like this,
are you?

Not until justice is served, Iván.

What about the wedding?

I imagine you're going to
get married anyway, or…

Why did you make up that warning call?

It was the first thing that came
to my mind before you messed up.

You shouldn't have told Dad
that the attack was his fault.

Why not?

I know he's guilty, Iván.

You got me involved in that lie.

And the truth will come out.

You can't give my dad an advantage.

Remember that, Dani.

I know.

But one thing
has nothing to do with the other.

I assure you he'll pay for both things.

[knocking on door]

[Daniel] Come in.

Your dad needs to talk to all of you.

He's waiting for you.

Thank you, María.

[Fernán] Are we all here?

Gerardo!

Gerardo, hurry!

Listen to me.

From now on,
no one can leave the ranch alone.

That's an order.

Iván and Doris, I know you had a trip,

but please, do it after the wedding.

Daniel.

Your room is over there. Please, stay.

We need to be united and alert

until we find out who
is behind these threats.

-Why won’t you drop the act, Fernán?
-Daniel.

Why?

[dramatic music]

Because we all know it was you.

Just tell us what you know.

Be a man,

and tell us what you did.

What?

You couldn't stand that I bought
Mr. Eduardo's ranch,

so you offered Kitty some land
to do the project there.

Are you going to blame me?

Of course.

But since you couldn't do it,

you offered the other ranch owners' money
to buy the ranches.

More money than they're worth.

Why do you want so much land, Fernán?

That's my problem.

Why didn't you make the offer directly?

Why did you use middlemen?

I repeat, that's my problem.

Yes, you're going to make a lot of money.

That's why you wanted to buy
Mr. Eduardo's ranch

but I got ahead,

and I ruined your business.

That's why you wanted me out.

By k*lling you?

No.

By threatening me.

They were burning down the house I was in,
right as I got there.

Hey, that's a nice theory.

Yeah, it's a great "theory."

The person who called me knows you did it.

They found out, Fernán.

They found out.

I didn't do anything, man.

Why didn't you call the police?

Hmm?

Doris said you would call them

to tell them about the warning call.

Yes, well.

They haven't come because they're busy.

They'll eventually come and investigate--

I talked to Officer Restrepo.

I talked to him.

He didn't know anything.

You didn't call him.

Is it true, Dad?

Didn't you talk to him?

[Daniel] Of course it's true.

Do you know why, Fernán?

Because you want to find out
who made that call.

Because you have to find out.
If you don't, they'll tell on you.

That's why.

Is it true, Dad?

I never had him k*lled.

So, is it true?

That wasn't the order.

That was it.

The order was to scare him.

I never had him k*lled.

It didn't have to end like this.
