Siempre Bruja (2019) s01e02 Episode Script

Dear Cristobal, this was the first time I saw myself in the mirror, and this was me smiling.
This was me worried and this was me looking for the way to bring you back to life.
But if Ninibe didn't show up, all I'd have achieved was getting stuck here in the future, my love Miss, are you all right? They are waiting to interrogate you.
Carmen, according to security videos, you were the last person that was with Professor Ninibe before she disappeared.
I was asking her how I could study biology.
If the professor left the office, why did you stay inside? Because she said to wait for her.
Look, Carmen, I advise you to tell me the truth.
If you are accusing me of anything, do it before a priest.
A priest? Yes, the authority.
What are you talking about? Isn't this a trial? Won't you call more witnesses? Listen, I ask you not to waste any more time nor make me waste mine trying to mislead me, because you won't be able to, because if there's anything that works perfectly for me, Carmen, it's my memory, and I never forget a face, and I saw yours when you ran away from the hospital's emergency room.
I've never been in a hospital.
Listen, Carmen, you arrived with both feet burnt and disappeared just like that, as if by magic.
You are confusing me, my feet have never been burnt.
Look my feet are perfect.
You may leave now, Carmen, but believe me, I will be keeping an eye on you.
I really don't understand what I'm doing here.
We are calling all those who saw the course director before she disappeared, and the videos show you arguing with her.
So, I'll ask you a series of questions.
Go that way, please.
Why do you knock like that if this is Is that my t-shirt? I need to speak to your grandmother.
Is that my t-shirt? You've got a lot of nerve.
I'm sorry, I thought it was mine.
I'll give it back to you.
You better give me a new one.
Thank you.
Dig in, please.
This is delicious, child.
I am a cook, healer, laundress.
I can cut hens' throats, pluck them, bring you your mail, and if you want, I can be your grandson's nanny.
What? We don't need a babysitter.
Please believe me.
I can help a lot in this house.
I can make the beds, I am an expert scorpion hunter, and don't really have a place to stay, or gold to pay you.
Gold? Where did she come from? From a black-and-white film? Please can I stay in the back room? No, my love.
That's the storage room.
And it is full of old furniture and clothes, stuff left by tourists, junk, no.
It doesn't matter.
That's okay for me.
I'll clean and organize it.
Give me a chance, please.
Well, it would be nice to organize that room and get rid of some of the stuff.
Where is your luggage? I don't have any.
You're welcome then, and if you find anything useful there you can keep it.
Thank you.
Bon appetite! This is delicious! Being in my room felt strange.
So much had changed.
However some things stayed the same, like my witch chest.
And despite Aldemar warning me about how dangerous it was using magic in the world where Lucien lived, I was so lost that I tried to summon him.
I want to communicate with the wizard Aldemar, the Immortal.
I want to communicate with the wizard Aldemar, the Immortal.
I want to communicate with Aldemar.
Damn! A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES Without Aldemar's guidance, and with Ninibe gone, I was now on my own, hundreds of years away from my time.
I didn't know or trust anyone here.
And although I was sure that Alicia was the witch Ninibe had talked to me about there was something weird about her, and I feared that she had betrayed her.
So before asking for help, I had to find out if she was on Lucien's side or on ours.
If she was evil, or if she was my only hope.
I'm going to put it like in that littoral.
Do you see it is kind of Please Hi, Alice.
- Hello.
- Good morning.
Hey, this seat is taken.
There are more at the back.
- Hi baby.
- Hello.
- How are you? - Fine, you? Good.
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
Quite good! Everyone probably knows what happened with Professor Ninibe and her students would know she wouldn't want them to miss any of her classes.
So, I'll be covering biology until we have more information.
Have you heard from her? No, but let's hope this is a misunderstanding, and she'll show up soon.
In this induction week, she would have talked to you about the importance of the environment, and the relationship between biodiversity, and the short-term future.
Ah, so you came to study biology.
Yes.
Remind me of your name again.
Carmen Eguiluz.
Eguiluz you are not on Ninibe's list.
What list? The attendance list or my list.
Go to the admissions office to register.
For the time being why don't you tell us something about you? Like what? I don't know, why did you decide to study biology? Why did you decide this late? Where are you from? You're not from around here, right? Your last name, Eguiluz, is not that common.
I come from far away.
And I decided to study biology because Because I have a special connection with plants and animals.
And like you all, I hope Professor Ninibe will show up soon.
That's what we all hope.
Let's start.
Get your books out, please.
FACULTY OF BIOLOGY Come on, do you really want to go to the welcome party? With all this about the course director's disappearance, there isn't much of a party mood.
Yes, of course, my love.
My father is a member of the board of directors.
If there was something to worry about, they would've told us.
Don't you think? You don't want to go 'cause you don't know how to dance.
Ready for the party, Carmen? Shall we go? I don't think I can.
Why not? If you don't go you'll never fit in.
Look, you arrived eight days late, and to be honest, newbies are always bullied.
- Bullied? - Ready? Let's go.
That's the spirit! Are you going? Of course, in Daniel's car.
I'll go too then.
Tell me, Carmen, when did you arrive in town? A few days ago.
And didn't you know classes began a week ago? No, I didn't.
Oh, well.
If you need a guide, you found one of the best.
If partying, dancing, or the beach is your thing, I'm your man.
But if you're interested in studying, competition, reading and good grades, that's Alicia's department.
Alicia! What's wrong? You don't leave that cell phone alone! Who are you talking to? I was just checking something.
I was telling the new one here that you're brainy, and you'll be the best student throughout the semester, not to say the nerd.
She was my sister in law for one year.
Yes, Dani was my brother's boyfriend.
But don't think he was a big deal.
My family still can't stand the sight of him.
You are unbearable! What did they do to you at the police station? Did they change you or what? They probably discovered a little devil hidden behind all that perfection.
What? Did they blame you for the professor's disappearance or what? Oh, Dani, you know all policemen are inept.
They don't even notice what's in front of them, and meanwhile, I could be the next victim.
Why you? Because we all are in danger.
Carmen, me, everyone.
All right, ladies, here we are already.
This is boring! It's just freshmen that have just left high school, and have no idea of what they want.
Like us, or like you, because I left school a couple of years ago.
Nothing exciting anyway.
Well, maybe one here or there - Hey, let's take a photo, come on.
- Carmen! - Smile! - Pose! Hey, hey, wait, wait.
Ready? Smile.
Let me see.
I look awful.
Carmen, you look strange, blurred, look.
Yes, you came out blurred.
Let me see.
Take another one.
Hashtag, too bad, hashtag, I uploaded it already.
Hashtag, get lost.
Hashtag, you are stupid! Come, I have a surprise.
Alicia, Alicia, Alicia, I need to talk to you about Ninibe.
What's wrong? I feel I am in hastag-danger, too, and hastag-Ninibe needs us.
But before I want to know what side you are on, hastag.
Listen, it's "hashtag.
" I didn't understand anything.
You're strange, Carmen.
Girls, come here! And I thought you could only drink beer.
That's what the people at college say.
But this is what I say.
- Bottoms up, guys! - Cheers! What's wrong? Did you choke? Guys, this is strong, it tastes like anise medicine.
It's a medicine that cures every illness and relaxes you.
- One more, straight down! - Okay, carefully, right? Is the brainy one a chicken? Cheers! Someone was looking at you.
Guys, I feel kind of strange.
Don't you feel as if the world is spinning around? This one will level you.
Here.
No, no more.
Okay, okay, water then? Thank you.
Let's leave her here and go EMERGENCY ROOM before the police turn up.
Was it you? Was it you what? Alicia, let's go dance, because this chit-chat thing bores me a lot.
- Let's go.
- Let's go, love.
The bottle! Carmen, come with us.
Let's go.
Good evening.
Can I have your attention for a moment, please? I won't be long.
On behalf of the Caribbean Littoral University, we welcome you to what will probably be the best time of your lives.
It is sad that this party won't be as fun as our dear course director's disappearance overshadows this lovely celebration.
I didn't want let this moment pass without remembering Ninibe.
But let's trust her strength and hope she'll be here with us soon.
Welcome! Alicia, can we talk for a moment? Yes.
Before Ninibe left, she told me something.
It was evident she was quite worried about you.
I don't know what she told you, but it was nothing important.
That's not what she thought.
Everything was a misunderstanding.
Besides, she didn't have to tell you anything.
It was something between her and I, that's all.
If something's wrong or you need anything There's nothing wrong, thank you.
Alicia, Alicia! Alicia! - I don't want to do it, period! - We can't let him win.
- I don't want anything to do with it.
- You can't avoid it.
Did I sign a contract? What's wrong? Let go of me! Alicia, I must confess something to you.
Alicia! Oh, miss, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Sir.
Start the car, I'll tell you where to go.
Come on, come on, come on! Come on.
Thank you for the ride.
HARASSMENT REPORTS Alicia! Carmen? What are you doing here? I could ask you the same.
Where is Ninibe? How should I know where Ninibe is? - Alicia, whose side are you on? - Mine above all.
Did Lucien send you? Who is Lucien, Carmen? Listen, I'm very busy and you're scaring me.
The last thing I need is another stalker in my life.
If you were not sent by Lucien, the two of us can find Ninibe.
Ninibe? The police are taking care of that, Carmen.
Alicia, I know you had a discussion with Ninibe, and she said you should go into battle.
You're going to leave her alone now? Carmen, how do you know? - We've got to go! - I can't leave yet.
There's no time.
Let's go! Is there anyone here? What were you doing in Ninibe's house? I need to know about the relationship between you two.
Alicia! Listen to me, please! Damn! - This is your fault.
- Yes, I know.
Aldemar warned me, but I haven't learnt how to control myself.
Who is Aldemar, Carmen? Why are you following me? Did Angel ask you? Is this another of his ideas to drive me crazy? Angel, what Angel? I followed you because I need to find Ninibe, and I think I know where she may be.
Look, sorry, but I can't help you.
I have my own problems right now, I can assure they're worse than yours.
I needed this entire file, Carmen, and if I don't send it now to Angel, he'll post my video on every network.
What networks? All of them: Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat, all of them.
If Angel uploads that video, my reputation will drop like mad and my parents will kill me.
I don't understand anything.
I did something stupid, Carmen, I did something stupid! Angel and I were drinking at the bar where he works.
It was closed already, there was no one around, and we ended up having sex.
He started to record it on his phone, and I found it normal, even funny.
But now, for being so naive, and for not being more intelligent, that crazy guy is telling me that if I don't go back to him, - he will post my video all over the web.
- Sex? What should I call it, making love? Oh, my God! How could I be so stupid? That's what infuriates me more.
That me, Alicia Dangond, fell into this cliché.
I, the most cautious woman on earth, didn't see this coming.
These types of things don't happen to me, Carmen.
I don't make these mistakes.
But why did you argue with Ninibe then? How do you know that? Because she told me something.
I argued with Ninibe because when that madman told me that if I didn't go back to him he would post my video on the web, I obviously reported him.
But I regretted it, Carmen.
I regretted it.
Because I'd rather go back with him, than become the talk of all of Cartagena.
They'll call me stupid, and they're right.
I ruined my life, and all because of a stupid man that got obsessed with me, doesn't leave me alone, pursues and presses me all the time.
And I don't know if you understand me.
Yes, I know something about persecution.
If I could only make him forget about me, and return the video.
If you want him to forget about you, I think there is something I can do.
I must be pretty desperate to accept using witchcraft, Carmen.
It is not witchcraft, it's a family recipe that my uncle taught me to escape from slavers.
From slavers? Carmen, you're scaring me.
Don't tell me your family is involved in human trafficking.
No, no, it's just stories that have passed from generation to generation.
Five drops in water, and he'll forget about you.
Well, I don't have any other option.
And what happens if it is more than five drops? Depends on the person, but you must be very careful.
Alicia, five drops, okay? I need two caipirinhas.
Move, move, move! Angel! I've thought about it and I'll come back to you.
I don't believe you.
Why don't you pour us both a drink, and we'll toast to it? Alicia, what are you looking for? The video? No, I really want to come back to you, Angel.
No! I don't know, I don't know.
How can I believe you? Alicia, I love you with all my heart, but I swear that if you're lying to me, I'll kill myself, but will publish the video first, okay? I know.
Will you get me a drink, please? - Same one as always? - Same one as always.
Beto, two drinks, buddy, please.
Here.
And the other one? Thank you.
Well, make it count! I toast to the most beautiful woman in Cartagena de Indias! And to me being an idiot for letting you go.
Cheers! I don't know.
I still don't fully believe you.
Oh, you're right, Angel, you're right.
I don't know why I thought it would be easier.
I was such an idiot! Forgive me.
But we can dance to the last song.
Why not? Bravo! That! Well, let's toast! But wait, wait.
I will relax a bit more, stop working, and will commit one hundred percent to you.
Is that okay? Yes.
Good.
What shall we toast to? We toast to our coming back together.
- Cheers! - Cheers! Hey, bro, we need some here too.
Count on that, bro! Wait, I'll be back soon.
But wait, wait.
Don't leave me with the drinks.
Let's toast to the two of us.
- Cheers! - Cheers! She levitates? What do you mean that girl levitates? I swear.
My grandmother's new guest levitates.
I don't believe you.
Let's go out and I'll show you the video.
Ah, is there a video? Don't tell me.
Really? Ready.
Two for two.
Thank you.
Cheers! Are you feeling okay? What's wrong? Buddy.
Hey, bro! What shall we do? ALBUMS PRIVATE NO PHOTOS OR VIDEOS Damn! Ninibe! In the vision I had at Ninibe's house, I had seen an unmistakable landscape.
Ninibe! It was the same forest of our meetings, but there was nothing romantic about it this time.
Now I could feel that evil and pain were filling this place.
Something very close to what I thought it would feel like to be caught by Lucien.
No, no, no, I can't believe it.
Do you want to watch an awful, dirty and scandalous video? Before this favor for you, I have to make it clear that the police and we musicians, don't get along.
Well, this would be like betraying my principles.
- Please.
- Are you sure about what you saw? Yes I have important information about a crime.
Our correspondent is at the place where several burnt bodies were apparently found.
Oh no, please! I don't want to hear this awful news.
I prefer to listen to my music.
- No.
- No! Let's listen, Grandmother.
What we know is that after an anonymous call, the police made the gruesome discovery.
The police have kept total secrecy about the discovery.
But our exclusive sources said that two completely burnt bodies were found.
Please, any statement? Detective, Detective, please.
Behind the line, behind the line.
This would indicate that there may be more victims of the so-called "Fire Killer".
There is speculation that one of the victims could be Ninibe Lopez, a university professor who recently disappeared.
Are you all right, Carmen? Excuse me.
All reptiles have a protective layer that fully protects them from water, under the epidermis.
Hello, hello! Why the faces? Did something happen? Alicia, don't get upset, but we received this.
I feel lonely, Cristobal.
Trapped in a world I don't understand.
Full of appliances that freeze life or accelerate movement.
Surrounded by powerful spells called cell phones, and nets that are not like our fishermen's.
Everything I discover would be more exciting if I were advancing in my mission.
But if Ninibe is dead, what do I have left? How will I free Aldemar and get back in time to save your life? What will happen if Lucien finds me before I finish my mission? I will probably be his next victim.
Is someone there? Carmen? Sir, come back.
You are too weak now.
What are you doing in my bedroom? I was thinking and investigating, and concluded that you are a witch.
I'm not a witch.
I saw you levitating while you slept.
I don't levitate.
I recorded it, and you can't deny it.
Look.
Is this a recording? Yes.
You still don't know how this works? Tell me the truth.
Are you a witch? No, I said no! No? How do you explain that protection tattoo on your arm? If you don't do what I ask, I will tell everyone who you really are.
