FORBIDDEN WOMAN

[Fernán] That was the order.

That was it.

Just to scare him.

So, is it true?

I never had him k*lled.

It didn't have to end like this.

[suspenseful music]

I had no idea about the other call.

I'm looking into it.

[suspenseful music]

I know this doesn't change anything, but…

this is all I can do.

I made a mistake.

And I'll always regret it.

But I swear I never wanted to hurt you.

[suspenseful music continues]

[sniffles]

[Iván] Don't go, please.

No, I just can't look at him. I can't!

-Look what he just did.
-But we all make mistakes.

No, this isn't just any mistake.

Think. Think that…
this can be for the best.

Are you serious?

Yes, it could be the end of their fight.

No.

This is the beginning of a worse fight.

Look what he just did. Look!

That's exactly why you have to stay.

You're the one who can intercede

so they don't really k*ll each other.

I'm not going to defend dad. No way.

Doris, who's asking you to do that?

Daniel has every right to report him.

In fact, he can count on us, but…

-if he hasn't done it, there's a reason.
-Daniel won't forgive him.

And I won't either.

It's not going to happen.

[sad music playing]

My dad screwed up.

He really messed up,
and we're not going to discuss that.

But it's one thing
to send someone to scare him,

and another, to have him k*lled.

There's a big difference.

They're both terrible.

Yes.

And you're absolutely right.

But this is our dad we're talking about.

We're talking about our brother.

You can't leave me alone
because you're the only one

they'll listen to.

You're the only one

who can mediate this situation.

I'm speechless.

[suspenseful music]

Didn't you want to know
what I didn't tell you?

Now you know.

I didn't want to tell you
so you'd stay out of this mess.

But what's the point? It was time.

This is the man
you're going to marry, Gisela.

[suspenseful music]

I'll leave you to think about it.

Hmm.

[suspenseful music ends]

-What did Doris say?
-She's really upset.

When she finds out how my mom died,
it'll be worse.

[exhales]

I don't think it's appropriate
to tell her that now.

That's the best way for my dad
to find out that you know.

What are we going to do?

Because, yes, we can send him to jail,

-but he has money--
-And he'll buy off the guards.

And he's going to come
and go as he pleases.

He'll be treated like a king.

No, Iván.

Jail is not an option.

I'm going to destroy him.

How?

Alexander admitted
that he was acting wrong.

That he got carried away
with a suspicion, and he felt betrayed.

He didn't call me out about Víctor.

He took responsibility

and asked for another chance.

What did you say?

We have a family, Kitty.

But you're not happy.

Happiness is also learned.

No, you're resigning to happiness,
that's very different.

And Víctor?

We broke up.

But you love him.

Honey, what I feel for Víctor

is real.

I've never felt this way.

But I can't sacrifice my family.

You're sacrificing yourself.

Marriage is…

constant negotiation.

One has to concede,

forgive.

Love is not what you think it is.

Like it's all rosy, nothing happens
and it's pure happiness.

You can't end things

when you think you've found
something better.

Yes, but you marry someone to be happy,

not to put up with them.

When you get married, you'll see it.

To gain something,

you let something else go.

[door opens]

Alexander's here.

[whispers] Look, Kitty.

Don't tell him anything
about what I told you.

Why would I tell him anything?

But Karen,

don't make the same mistakes
as the women from the foundation,

who stay for the kids with the wrong guys.

It's not fair. You don't deserve it.

Look who's here!

How are you?

Honey, is there milk?

[clears throat] When did you arrive?

A while ago.

Kitty's going to stay with us

while she's organizing the wedding.

Oh, yes, Karen told me. I'm so glad.

He's at your level.

He's great for you. You'll be very happy.

I hope so.

This is your home.

You're always welcome.
Sergio will be very happy.

He's so happy that he's organizing
the guest room with Claudia.

I'm going to see if she needs help.

-Okay.
-See you soon.

Of course.

[suspenseful music]

Your sist--

I hope her visit doesn't give you
bad ideas.

Kitty doesn't know.

And I'm not telling her.

Hey, I was really surprised.

In the interview, Víctor seemed
more than a gentleman.

I liked it.

I'm going to see Sergio.

-Alexander.
-Hmm?

The proposal for the foundation…

The one you so firmly rejected.

Is it still on?

["Señales" ends]

Good one!

Very good, guys.

Yes. Can we do another one?

I think we're good for today.
We'll continue tomorrow.

-Yes?
-Cool. Thanks, guys.

-See you tomorrow.
-Thanks, guys.

Excellent. Thank you. It was great.

Thanks a lot.

-Yeah?
-Yes, it was great.

I think we'll push it
a little harder tomorrow.

-What do you think?
-Yes. Okay.

Hey, Betty, I…

I wanted to thank you
for the interview proposal.

What? You don't have to thank me.

No, of course I do.

Because you'll be in the eye
of the storm for the next few days.

That's going to help me too. You'll see.

-Okay.
-No worries.

Anyway,

thank you, okay?

It's a favor you don't just do.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

Hey, are you hungry?

-I am, yes.
-Great.

Should we order something?

-Sure.
-Sure.

What should we order?

-It's on Kativa.
-It's on Kativa, okay.

That's better.

[cell phone ringing]

sh**t.

Karen's coming to the meeting
with the Cocoa Association

So soon?

I'd wait a little longer before taking her
to public events.

Politics are kind.

We need a nice face that people
can relate to.

Besides, she's willing to collaborate.

-Really?
-Mm-hm.

The foundation needs
sponsors and the campaign still needs her.

It's a mutually beneficial relationship,
as they say now.

[suspenseful music]

Be careful.

Always.

[ominous music]

How's Daniel?

Better.

I'm so happy we're going to Mexico.

Oh, Kitty, Daniel adores you.

Thank you for insisting that we go
to Mexico.

Well, I'm very happy for you both.

Hey,

I was thinking…

What if I have the wedding here?

In Bogotá?

No, here…

here at your house.

Really?

Yes. I want to go to Mexico quickly.

I want to avoid the stress of renting
the church and the venue.

Besides, we're only a few guests. I think…

-I love the idea.
-You do?

Of course.

Thank you.

Do you think Alexander will mind?

No, don't worry about Alexander.
I'll take care of it.

We only just moved in together.

She's cool, easygoing,
she doesn't cause trouble for anything.

Wait until you start actually living
with her.

[chuckles] Don't say that, Víctor.

I'm joking.

My mom is awesome.

And you know what?

I think it's great
that you're going to live together.

Well, yes.

But you know what? I don't like
living alone.

What a drag.

Okay.

Your chips.

When are you going to show me
the apartment?

Well, Amalia wants to have a housewarming.

-A housewarming?
-Yes.

What's all the mystery?

Oh, there's no mystery.

It's just that she wants everything
to be perfect

for when you come to visit.

What did she say about the interview?

It was okay.

-Yes?
-Yes.

And that I was the woman?

It obviously took her by surprise.

-Of course.
-But, well,

she's right that we should have told her.

-But she thought it was a good idea.
-Good.

-Hey, Betty.
-I'll put this here.

Thanks again, okay?

[chuckles] I mean it.

This will calm things a bit.

-Thank you.
-No worries.

I'm here for whatever you need.

[idyllic music playing]

[exhales]

Betty, please.

Víctor.

I know there's nothing between us.

It's okay.

I don't want to confuse you.

And I don't want to confuse myself.

But no one is going to get involved.

We both know what's going on, don't we?

Let's have a good time.

[idyllic music continues]

[Víctor sighs]

No. No, no, no. This isn't right, no.

No, man.

I'm not available
to anyone right now, Betty.

Right now?

And later?

No?

We had something and it didn't work out.

No, other things didn't work. This worked.

Didn't it?

Beatriz.

-Look…
-Hmm?

You're so important in my life,

I love you so much,

I don't want to ruin what we have…

well, for trying things to work out again
and fail.

I love you very much as a good friend.

Okay.

Look, I know I'm hurting you.
I'm sorry, okay?

All good.

You're not hurting me.

You're the one who's all tangled up.

I'd rather be honest.

As you wish.

Your loss.

[Betty] Hm.

I have a meeting tomorrow
with some very important people.

They're willing to make

a donation to the foundation
of the future president's wife.

You think you can convince them?

Of course.

I'll be waiting for you.

-Thank you.
-Mm-hm.

[clears throat]

Give me that.

What about you?

Are you going to Sergio's room today?

No, I'm not.

[suspenseful music]

I think it's time for things to go back
to normal.

What's up?

How did it go?
I'm going to have an arepita, want one?

-No, I already ate.
-How'd it go? Any progress?

Yes, a lot.

What happened? What's wrong?

Nothing.

No, something happened.

-What happened?
-Nothing happened.

I'm tired, Amalia. I'm sorry.

I'm tired. I think I'm going to bed.

-We'll talk tomorrow, okay?
-Okay.

[sad music plays]

Hey, this Beatriz person, Betty,

the replacement Víctor
mentioned in the interview, who is she?

A singer.

But she's much younger than you.

Do you know her?

So do you.

The day you took me to Víctor's concert,

she was there.

Oh!

Only one of Víctor's friends

would go along with a lie like that.

-Alexander.
-Hmm?

[exhales] If we're making an effort
to keep the peace…

Mm-hm?

Please, let's not talk about Víctor.

Is this really…

an effort we're going to make together?

I'm tied to you.
I'm forced to live with you.

What's the point of fighting all the time?

[dramatic music]

That's not good for any of us.

A truce?

Truce.

Sleep well.

[dramatic music continues]

[dramatic music ends]

[Víctor] Well, to end the night,

I want us to sing together.

You sing there, I sing here.

We all love this song.

It goes like this.

♪ You should have let me be ♪

♪ Right where I was ♪

[chuckles]

♪ I didn't know you and wasn't looking ♪

♪ To be turned over, upside down ♪

♪ Did you have to do it? ♪

Okay.

I want to see

where's everybody from.

Tonight, I want to see where you guys are,

where you're connecting from,
my beautiful people.

There we have the first flags.
Flags, flags.

Laura Guzmán.

Laura Guzmán is asking,

"Víctor, when are you coming to Canada?"

First of all! Ua! Ua! Ua!

I hope you can hear that
in Canada, Laurita.

I'm just kidding. I say this with great
affection and respect

on behalf of Víctor Rodríguez.

I send you lots of kisses.

Hmm.

Oh! Well,

Let's… What does it say?

Chuchito77

is asking if I'm drinking alcohol.

No, buddy, how can
you think I'm drinking liquor?

This is the water of life.

Drink water, don't drink alcohol.

-It'll hurt you.
-[music sting]

♪ My hate for you will expire ♪

Try to sleep, Dani.

See you tomorrow.

Iván.

I meant what I said about
destroying my dad.

And you'll have to take sides
at some point.

My dad always made us
believe Elvira was crazy.

And that you took it out
on him because of her illness.

Instead, you always tried to tell us

how he behaved with her.

And also, you tried to tell us

how he behaved with our mom.

And I can't believe
you don't remember anything.

We…

Doris and I were very young when she left.

If she left.

Because at this point,
I'm thinking the worst, Dani.

With Fernán, anything is possible.

Anything.

[music sting]

You can count on me.

Are you sure?

Yes.

[suspenseful music]

Maria, good morning.

Good morning. Do you need anything?

Yes, I'll take a glass of water
to take these pills.

Thank you.

María, I have a question.

Does my dad have many visitors?

You know your dad
doesn't have many friends.

Yes.

Anyway…

I imagine you welcome
everyone who comes here.

Usually, yes.

That means you know
who always comes to the ranch.

And after the attack, has anyone
come to visit my dad?

[suspenseful music]

People come here every day.

Yes, but I mean an unusual visit.

Someone you don't like so much.

Or someone who worked here
when my mom was alive.

[suspenseful music]

Not that I know of.

You know my dad was the one
who tried to k*ll me, right?

Turning my dad in would be a pretty
heartless thing to do,

but I think the people who made

the attack should be punished.

The police caught one of them, right?

They're working hard. They'll catch
the rest soon.

I hope so.

[suspenseful music continues]

María.

I also hope you can help me identify them.

[hesitates] I haven't seen anyone strange
around here,

but maybe, I didn't notice.

Try to remember.

Any help, no matter how small, will help.

-Yes, sir.
-Thank you again.

[suspenseful music]

-Hello.
-Coffee, sir?

Thanks, Claudita. Yes.

Bread or arepa?

I can't stay for breakfast.
I have a meeting.

Should I tell Carlos to pick you up?

No, I have some things to do
today with Kitty.

The wedding?

Yes, we're looking for wedding dresses.

[exhales]

I'm happy to know that
she'll get married here, in our house.

And I'm happy that you're back
in the room.

And we're sleeping together.

[suspenseful music]

[Alexander gasps]

-See you later. Bye, Claudita.
-See you later.

-Hi, sweetie.
-How are you?

Fine.

Did you take your pill?

I just took it. I'll take the other one.

Have you eaten well?

Yes, sweetie, I've eaten well.
How are you?

Fine.

I found someone who can help us
with the apartment in Mexico.

[music sting]

That's great.

And Karen will help us with the wedding.

That's wonderful.

You should come now.

What about the ranch?

Iván can help us, or we could get someone
to take care of it.

I miss you a lot.

I miss you too.

Well, then come now.

Look, I have an idea.

I have a couple of people interested
in the ranch.

Let me talk to them to see
if I can negotiate.

And I'll leave, so I can solve everything.

Okay.

But don't take long.

I won't.

Kisses.

Bye.

We have to hurry up with Betty's launch

before we end up in a bad situation.

By the way, speaking of which, do you…

Why don't you go and listen?

That's looking good.

-Is it?
-Yes.

I'm glad.

Did something happen with Betty
last night?

She got there all hot and bothered,
and went straight to her room.

Hm!

With Karen out of the picture,

I think Betty can get her hopes up again.

-She's already there.
-Really?

[exhales] Oh.

[no sound] Oh, man.

Do you see yourself with her again?

I don't.

And I told her that.

-That's why she was sad.
-Oh…

It's for the best.

Those things need to be said.

You have to be clear, Víctor.

But, of course, be ready.

We know how she is.

The rudeness, the long face.

Don't let her get to you,
be patient with her.

-Hmm?
-I promise.

Betty is important.

Very.

[Amalia kisses]

I'll stay here.

So handsome.

How are you?

I'd rather not say, you'll get worried.

You can say anything
except that this family is boring.

-Bad news keeps piling up.
-[grunts]

That's our thing. Proud of it.

Will you be at the wedding?

Are you still
thinking about marrying my dad?

Yes.

After everything he did?

He didn't want to k*ll you.

But he sent two guys
to burn down my house.

-He did that to his own son.
-I'm not condoning it.

But apparently, you don't think
it's a big deal.

We all make mistakes, Daniel.

I've made mistakes, too.
If you hadn't given me a chance,

-I wouldn't be here.
-That's not a mistake,

That's attempted m*rder.

It takes courage to recognize that.

And Fernán did.

Especially, in front of the person
he hurt.

So you also admire him.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be marrying him.

Why are you here, Gisela?

To ask me not to turn him in?

You won't do that.

-No?
-No.

You'd have done it.

You have plenty of evidence and time.

Take care, please.

Because if my dad was able to get
rid of me,

he'll do it to anyone.

The only thing he needs
is for that person to bore him

or become a problem for him.

That's not going to happen to me.

My dad is a bad person.

Believe me, this is just the beginning.

[dramatic music]

[music sting]

What's with her?

Who?

Your stepmother.

Ha! This cake is really expensive.

How many people are coming?

Only 50.

The family, the other guests,
and the workers.

I'm not paying four million
for a piece of cake.

Hell no.

It's the distance.

It will be sent from Bogotá.

What do you mean? Why?

Because that's the cake
your future wife wants.

What about my cake?

It's too expensive!

There are really good bakeries in town.

But it's the one I want.

That's a waste of money.

Oh, Fernán.

Don't be stingy.

I'm saving by doing the wedding
here at the ranch.

And we won't have a honeymoon.

Leave us alone.

[music sting]

Did you talk to your kids?

No, I haven't.

None of them wanted to have breakfast.

Then what?

-What're you going to do?
-Nothing.

Wait and see what happens.

I don't think Daniel will turn you in.

[suspenseful music]

You talked to him?

You should, too.

-What for?
-What do you mean, "what for?"

So that he doesn't change
his mind and send you to jail.

He'll take longer to turn me in
than it takes me to get out of jail.

Wouldn't you rather save the effort

and the money it could cost you?

Besides, you'll have a record,
and that's not good.

[grunts]

You're right about that.

Eat your heart out, hmm?
Stop being so proud.

Make peace with your children,
and avoid problems.

Hmm?

I'm not the kind of woman
who visits her husband in jail.

Hmm?

[music sting]

I didn't know you were so close.

But it's not like we're that close either.

What do you think of her?

I like her.

How much?

Just average.

She's pretty.

She has a temper.

And she's really hot.

Oh, you like her?

No, I don't.

I thought you would like her.

No, I just

have eyes for one person.

Suppose…

Kitty doesn't exist.

If she wasn't here.

Well, I would tell her that she's a very…

pretty person.

That…

she's intelligent,

great to talk to,

and has an overwhelming personality.

But that's it.

What gets me

is that she's involved with
someone as awful as my dad.

Why do you ask, Iván?

Oh, no.

No particular reason.

I talked to María.

About what?

I asked her if someone came to the ranch

to find out who the blackmailer was.

Did she tell you?

[suspenseful music]

No.

No, I told her I wanted to help the police

to find the person behind the attack.

I thought Gisela was going to run away
when she found out about my dad.

Uh-huh.

It's the best way to win him over.

Unbelievable.

They're shady, they get each other.

Marrying someone who's capable
of burning down his son's ranch?

You and I also live in
that person's house,

and we didn't run away when you
found out what he did.

No, that's different.

Do you think so?

Did you know?

About what?

About your dad's little tricks.

What about the call you made yesterday?

Who did you have to remind
about the deal with Fernán

and what would happen to him
if he failed him?

[music sting]

That was not my idea.

But you were part of it.

Were you there when Daniel was shot?

No, ma'am.

I'm not what you think.

And if the police keep asking,
will you end up involved?

Nothing will happen to me.

What did you do, Gerardo?

You can't become a criminal.

You can't get your hands dirty
for your dad!

That's all he wants me for.

When I can show him what I'm capable of.

The only thing I'm better at
than my brothers.

[music sting]

[Fernán clears throat]

Can I come in?

You're already in.

Look, son.

I talked to Venancio.

The neighbor who's a doctor.

He'll keep an eye on you
in case you need it.

What are you waiting for?
For me to thank you?

[suspenseful music]

-I'm just letting you know.
-Let him know

that I'm like this because of you.

Look, Daniel.

I'm not proud of what I did.

I'm very sorry.

But I can't go back in time either.

[tense music]

What's your game, Fernán?

Hmm?

Are you apologizing or earning points
so I won't turn you in?

You have every right
to do whatever you want.

And I have the right to defend myself.

We'll see who does better.

Look.

If you're trying to punish me,
you succeeded.

Nothing worse for a father
than disappointing his children.

I'm so touched by your speech.

I'm simply trying to build
a bridge between you and me.

Cross it if you want or not.

[Débora] Here's the report on mines
and energy you requested.

The statistics too.

If you have questions, don't hesitate
to tell me.

Hi, Karen.

Ouch.

Give me a second, please.

I'm glad you're here.

Alexander is upstairs taking a call.
I'll walk you there.

I want to know what goes through
a woman's mind

when she helps a man fabricate
a crime to blackmail his wife.

Excuse me?

To come up with such an elaborate
and perverse plan,

Alexander needed help.

Who else but the right-hand lady?

His campaign advisor.

I don't know what you're talking about.

An advisor should make
his boss realize his mistakes,

not be an accomplice to his crimes.

[dramatic music]

[chuckles] Let the secretaries
work it out.

Please say hi to Estelita.

We'll talk later.

Kitty's not coming?

No, she's organizing her things.

Oh.

You look beautiful.

They're waiting for you.

-Shall we?
-I advise you to present

your business project first.

Listen to them, attend to their needs,

and leave the foundation topic
for the end.

-Very well.
-You're right, Débora?

[Alexander] Hmm.

I'll help you present the project.

I know it by heart.

You don't need to come.

Your wife accused me of being
her accomplice.

What did you expect?

She's being passive-aggressive.

Really? Wouldn't you do the same?

[suspenseful music]

María.

Sir.

Daniel told me you were talking.

[suspenseful music]

What he didn't tell you is
that he's looking

for the person who's blackmailing my dad

by telling the truth about Elvira's death.

What I didn't tell him
is that you're that person.

[music sting]

And I won't tell him either.

-What are you talking about?
-Don't play dumb.

I was there and I heard you just fine.

My dad doesn't know I know.

In the long run, no one wants
that information to go public.

Or do they?

Why did you tell Daniel?

Because he's my brother, he deserved
to know.

Right now, I'm not convinced
it was a good idea, but…

-If Fernán finds out that--
-Ah, ah, ah.

Shut up, María.

I told you.

Daniel doesn't know you're blackmailing
my dad,

and that you have the evidence

that Elvira's death wasn't a suicide,

as we've been led to believe.

-And you--
-Let me finish.

Neither you

nor will I say anything.

Do you think Daniel will keep quiet

knowing that his father
was the one who k*lled Mrs. Elvira?

No, you've just got me
in big trouble, Iván.

You keep your mouth shut.

I'll do exactly the same.

Don't worry about my brother.
I'll take care of him.

[suspenseful music]

[suspenseful music ends]

[tense music]

Are you okay?

Yes.

Want something to drink?

No, thank you.
