Alma (2022) s01e02 Episode Script

1
A NETFLIX SERIES
Our land has always
been the source of many legends.
Since prehistoric times,
it has been held that these mountains
are the hiding place of Therion
and his five shadows.
Therion?
A demon
from the depths of the earth.
An all-powerful being
capable of controlling the
forces of nature and all its creatures.
To summon him,
you had to gather the five carvings
of his different spirit animals.
But the ritual was risky.
For Therion to be able
to incarnate as a human,
the body had to be brought
to the verge of death.
Therion could then decide
to save the person by invading their body
or turn them
into one of his servants forever.
The entrance to the cave
collapsed centuries ago.
Nobody can go in there now.
And the other four pieces?
Where are they? Who has them?
Bárbara and I promised to guard them
and keep them all far apart
to prevent Therion
from being able to return to this world.
- They're just stories.
- "Just stories"?
These stories are important.
Sharing them separates us from the beasts.
Good morning.
Grandpa, great to see you up and about.
He's having one of his good days.
He's talking non-stop.
I'm making the most of it while it lasts
to collect his stories.
This is you?
No, that's my father.
- Your son.
- Mmm.
He never comes to see me anymore.
Are you going back to search the valley?
Dad's waiting for us downstairs.
I don't think we forgot anything.
Are you ready?
Adiós.
Your daughter has
been on the verge of death twice.
First in the accident
and again when she was bleeding out.
The hospital has been
a sterile environment for her.
She doesn't have a bond with it.
But the moment she leaves,
any stimulus could open the door to other
memories that are currently still hidden.
We should talk
about Lara before we get home.
It's very dangerous to
force something so painful into her mind.
It could create false memories.
She'll hate us for
hiding it from her for so long.
I know it will be hard
when the time comes,
but trying to speed up her recovery
could complicate things even further.
I gotta talk to you about
what happened yesterday.
Not here, not now.
Not so fast, please.
Hold on!
What's the matter? Alma.
Alma, look at me. Are you okay?
- Look at me. Are you okay? Look at me.
- Look out!
Alma!
Help!
Stop!
Please stop!
- Are you okay?
- It's the road.
Do you remember something?
No, it's like a feeling.
A fear.

- She's never been very friendly.
- What's her name?
Bessie.
Did I really live here?
You still do. We all live here.
And my room?
Upstairs.
We might have to wait until
Do you feel strong enough to try?
Yeah.
Give me your crutch here.
Hold on to this instead.
That's it.
If you don't feel strong enough to do it,
we can prepare a room for you downstairs.
- Of course she can do it, right, Ali?
- Yeah, I can do it.
Oh!
- Did you hurt yourself?
- A little.
It's still too soon.
You'll stay in the guest bedroom.
Here. Come on, I'll take you.
It's better than the hospital.
Here you can go to the bathroom
without going up and down the stairs.
It's only temporary.
You'll be back
in your actual room in no time.
I love this place.
I'm really jealous. I dig it.
Will you let me come here?
Here.
Just like I promised.
CONTACTS
ALMA
I thought it would spark something.
Give her time.
You were waiting for the first opportunity
to prevent her from going up to her room.
Why not carry her upstairs?
I'm scared.
11TH NATIONAL TROPHY OF OVIEDO
Now you're just one step away from the US!
Whoo-hoo!
Fuck.
Are you all right, Tomás?
I can do it. I'm not useless.
You're so stubborn, Tomás.
There's nothing wrong
with asking for help.
Yes, there is, Dad! There is! And it makes
me feel like a helpless asshole.
It's just a matter of time.
Come on, let's see how it's healing.
That's not where it hurts, Dad!
Here! This is where it hurts!
It's like a fucking iron bar
stabbing me right there!
Can you help with that?
- Morning.
- Tom, how are you?
Fine.
I told you everything I remembered
when we met after my surgery.
How can I help you?
We're here about a delicate matter.
The autopsies reveal that
most of the students had taken drugs
in the hours leading up to the accident.
And they also found
a bag of pills in Carlos' pocket.
That makes no sense.
In our first interview,
you told us about some
"lights that were
moving through the mist,"
and that "something jumped into the road
with a strange, intense buzzing sound."
Wait, are you implying
that those were hallucinations?
For fuck's sake, Arturo, you know me.
Was Carlos in any condition
to drive the bus that morning?
- Oh, this is just awesome.
- Tomás.
Maybe he was partying with you,
and when he got to the curves,
he lost control of the vehicle,
and he went off the road.
- The pills that you found were not his.
- Then whose were they?
I'm not gonna snitch.
I was just trying to stand up for Carlos.
Sorry, I wasn't expecting anybody.
Did you have a reservation?
I'm not here as a guest.
I'm here about Martín.
I suppose you're Bruno.
I've seen my brother's phone log.
I know his last message was to you.
If he's still alive,
he would have reasons to hide.
Is he here?
With you?
Why would he be here? No.
Did he do or say anything
out of the ordinary while he was here?
No, I thought he was a nice guy,
very sensitive.
I've been looking
for him since the accident.
There's a man.
An employee of my father.
I'm sure you've seen him.
He's looking for Martín.
It's very important
that he doesn't find him.
I don't understand.
Martín is in danger.
What happened
wasn't an accident.
If you find anything at all, any clue,
no matter how small
or insignificant it seems, call me
before the police,
and especially before my father.
We have to find Martín.
We're his only hope.
I guess
the police already went to your place.
Don't worry, you can relax.
I didn't say anything about the pills
or who gave them to Roque.
That's not
what I wanted to talk about.
I heard that you saw something
coming down the mountains.
Before the accident.
How do you know that?
It doesn't matter. I believe you.
I've gone through some wild shit.
I've seen people die.
I know what you've been through.
SCHOOL BUS ACCIDEN
INVESTIGATION CONTINUES
I went to see Ali at the hospital
but she didn't recognize me.
She has amnesia.
It's not amnesia.
After the accident,
did you see those shadows again?
Can you move?
Did you see them die?
All of them?
I'm not discussing that with you.
You're all in danger.
This has only just begun.
When you want to talk,
you know where to find me.
Bessie.
You want to play?
You know you're not allowed.
- The doctor will give you an earful.
- What would he know about life?
What is it, Bruno?
Do you see anything?
These caves
are full of lost animals.
It probably fell down a chasm.
There are tunnels all over the place.
It's fallen and now it can't get out.
Is it going to starve in there?
- Shall we rescue it?
- No.
No no way.
Okay.
That hole is too small for me.
And you always said that
you wanted to go caving with me, right?
Let's do this.
How's it going?
What do you think?
Fine.
- The tunnel slopes downward.
- Is it really steep?
Yeah, but I can keep going.
Hold the rope tight.
Bruno, I'm coming out!
Pull on the rope!
Are you okay?
Bruno!
Pull the rope!
Bruno!
Bruno!
Álex? Álex, are you okay?
What's going on?
Álex?
- Bruno!
- What happened?
Are you okay?
There was something.
A shadow.
I could see its reflection in the water.
Just like in Grandpa's stories.
It was chasing me.
I found this.
Diana,
I found Martín's bracelet in a cave.
He must have survived the accident.
He could still be alive.
Did you find it
in a cave full of red rocks?
Yeah. How'd you know that?
Delete this call as soon as I hang up and
don't share this information with anyone.
No, Diana, I've done everything
you asked me to. I called you first.
- But now we have to call the rescue squad.
- No, please!
I'm on my way. Wait for me to get there.
That chasm has a drop of over 20 meters.
Nobody could survive a fall like that.
- You know he's going to be
- I know he's gonna be alive.
When that happened to Mom and Dad,
Inés called me.
She told me that they were in an accident
and that she was on her way.
I asked her if they were okay.
She said yes.
But somehow I knew.
Something
inside told me they were already gone.
It was
like an emptiness I'd never felt before.
But, no, not with Martín.
But that was Mom and Dad.
You loved them.
And they loved you.
Was Martín that important to you?
You're too young to understand right now.
I haven't seen you like this since
the summer that guy from Australia came.
I was worried.
You seemed sad.
And I was scared.
Scared?
I thought
you were gonna leave with him.
I know that if you could,
you would have left a long time ago.
Álex, I'm not going to go anywhere.
I promise you.
Berta.
How's it going?
How's your brother?
Come on, don't scare me now. How's Roque?
They turned off his ventilator
for a couple seconds
to test his blood oxygen level.
There's nothing they can do.
They're gonna pull the plug.
Roque's real strong.
He's gonna wake up.
- And soon he'll be joking about it
- Tom.
No.
It's gonna be tonight.
I thought it would be
unfair if you didn't know.
I thought you'd wanna say goodbye.
Look. Tom.
Hello, Tom.
Thanks so much for coming.
We know it's not easy.
Hey, Roque.
It's me, Tom.
I wish I'd come to see you earlier.
It's all so complicated.
You might not know this,
but you've helped me a lot.
When
When they cut off my leg,
I thought about what you would have done.
I didn't cry at all
or try to blame anyone.
People try to tell me
"You're so brave."
But it's not me.
It's you.
Or at least
it's my best impersonation of you.
I imagine you
holding back your laughter,
about to open your eyes
and cracking up at the sight of my face.
And that's why you can't leave, asshole.
You have to fuckin' fight.
Open your eyes and tell me now.
Please.
You're the strongest guy that I know.
Please.
I hope a part of you
will be with me forever.
Wow!
Do we always have dinner like this?
It's a special occasion.
Don't get used to it.
Mmm! Finally, some real food!
You're the only one that feeds her from
the table, that's why she's coming to you.
I think she wants this.
I don't know why,
but I know this was important to me.
This and that tree house
are the only things that seem familiar.
They were special, no?
The tree house
was your favorite place.
- You want some salad?
- No, I'll take some chicken.
Can you pass me the bread?
Here you go.
It's delicious.
I love you so much, son.
Bessie!
Bessie, shut up! Damn it!
Is that it?
Yes.
Who are you?
Why did you bring me here?
