MUTED
[brooding music playing]
[unzips purse]
[Ana] I was the one
who answered your message.
[distant thunderclap]
I can help you see her.
[tense music playing]
[locks door]
Can I have a towel?
[tense music continues]
[inaudible]
"Stay calm."
[exhales]
[door opens]
[door closes]
[Greta exhales]
He's here.
[Cabrera] What?
Does she want him to kill her?
[exhales]
[rain pattering outside]
[phone vibrating]
[phone continues vibrating]
[thunderclap]
Noa's my daughter.
[chuckles softly]
We adopted her shortly after
Sergio, I know that you want to see her.
But first I need to know
what you want from her.
I'm a psychiatrist,
and I worked with your mom.
You've seen me before.
Maybe you don't remember,
but it was here, at your house.
During the reconstruction.
[gasps]
[menacing music playing]
[breathing heavily] I don't believe that.
It's the truth.
How can I know that?
It's her.
Or not.
How do I know?
Let me call her and Noa will tell you.
[phone vibrating]
Noa, it's your phone!
[phone vibrating]
So you couldn't even stay
until the end of the concert?
- How's Noa?
- Annoyed, what did you expect?
I need to talk to her.
If you were so eager
to talk to her, you shouldn't have
dashed off to work, as always.
I'm not at work.
Ana.
Please, tell me.
What's happening?
[exhaling sharply]
Beñat.
If there was any other way,
I would do it, believe me.
But it's the only solution.
Where are you right now?
I need Noa to see her brother.
Is he there with you?
[Ana] I could've said nothing.
I could've just given him
the school's address, or ours.
And they would've met
without your knowledge.
But I wanted you to know first.
And to agree to it.
Noa is never going to meet with Sergio.
You hear that?
We have to let her make her own decision.
You're crazy. You're crazy.
Beñat, please let her.
I wouldn't ask
if it wasn't really important.
What are you doing with my phone?
Here, it's your mom.
[Noa] Hello?
Noa, I'm with your brother.
Sergio wants to see you.
Sergio?
Dad, wait!
[busy signal]
They hung up.
[tense music playing]
What are you doing?
Protecting you.
Like your mother should be.
Greta, we have to do something.
This is out of control.
Yeah, yeah, damn it, I know.
But we need to think very hard
about what we're gonna do.
And Cabrera, God knows what he'll do.
She's completely lost her mind.
[Aguirre] We're in luck, then.
Because I've just seen
the corpse of Sergio's tutor.
Here, at the greenhouse.
After this, he'll be locked up for good.
But was it him?
[chuckling] Does it matter?
His ankle monitor was found right next
to the body, so with that alone,
we have enough to lock him up.
Cabrera,
it's time for us to shut down
that psychiatrist forever.
How?
We are paid very well to respond
imaginatively to questions like that.
[exhales]
[sighs]
All right guys, show's over.
We're going to arrest Sergio Ciscar.
He's a suspect for Natanael's murder.
But Ana's still in there.
Cabrera, if the police burst in suddenly,
he could react violently.
Well, that was her decision.
[thunderclap]
He just wants to talk to Noa.
And once he does,
Ana will probably be able to leave.
Please, at least let me try to help her.
Listen, my people are coming.
What you do in the meantime is up to you.
Great. That's great.
[thunderclap]
- [tense music continues]
- [busy signal]
[breathing shakily]
[busy signal continues]
They turned it off.
Let's wait for a bit and and try again.
Noa's dad just needs
some time to accept this.
I had more time to prepare myself for you
coming back into my daughter's life.
- What do you mean, more time?
- I studied your case.
I know everything about you.
[scoffs]
- Give me back the phone!
- I won't.
- Just give it back!
- No, goddamn it. I won't do it.
[breathing shakily]
[phone ringing]
You can tell my wife to leave us alone.
You hear me?
I'm not with her, Beñat.
Is it true she's with Sergio?
Yes, but he's stable for now.
He just wants to talk to his sister.
- Beñat, I'm asking you to allow it.
- You too, huh?
- Is no one thinking of Noa or what?
- I want to go.
You don't know what you're saying.
- But why won't you let me?
- Because I'm scared, damn it.
I'm scared for you.
I'm not.
[exhales sharply]
[exhales]
[Sergio breathing shakily]
[Ana] Calm down.
Sergio, calm down.
Shut up! Shut the hell up!
Don't tell me to calm down.
[breathing heavily]
I'm gonna kill you.
I'm gonna kill you, crazy bitch.
I know about what your mom did.
[tense music playing]
When she was trying
to control your impulses.
How do you know that?
[Ana] I just do.
I also know that she tried
an experimental drug on you.
I'll call you later.
It must have been hard
to feel observed 24 hours a day.
Knowing that she would
analyze every movement
and every word.
Even your silence.
Let me show you something.
[somber music playing]
[door clicks]
[somber music continues]
She watched you from in here.
[exhales]
[clicking]
[music turns tense]
[gasps]
[breathing shakily]
[grunting]
[groans]
[panting]
[Sergio yells]
[breathing heavily]
[gentle, atmospheric music playing]
[both breathing heavily]
[gentle, atmospheric music continues]
[Cabrera scoffs]
Oh, sh
[Greta exhales]
[doorbell rings]
Noa.
No.
Yeah, it's Noa. It's Noa.
[breathing shakily]
[Ana] Sergio, wait!
[breathing shakily]
It's Noa.
I know that I've been mean to you.
- I just wanna explain that
- [grunts]
Someone leaked a sex tape of me.
- I thought it was you.
- Get out of here!
If we don't do something fast,
they're gonna end up dead.
She's really lost it.
[Cabrera] What's up? Where are you?
Then hurry the fuck up.
Please, just let me explain.
Marta, you'd better go.
[tense music playing]
Why are you here?
How do you know her?
How do you know her?!
She's a psychiatrist.
- No.
- She's been spying on you this whole time.
- [Ana] Marta, shut up!
- Your house is full of cameras.
- Shut your mouth!
- [Marta cries]
No. Sergio, I'm Noa's mother.
You're just a fucking liar, Ana!
There's one right there!
Look. Look!
- What's she doing?
- No fucking way.
[breathing heavily]
They're watching right now.
[suspenseful music playing]
[whispering] No, no, no, no.
- You see?
- Those fucking bastards.
- [grunts]
- [Greta] It's gone.
[Mikel] Shit.
I think there are more.
They're in your bedroom, I'm sure of it.
No. No, no, no!
[Marta] There was
a camera next to the mirror.
[Mikel] The owl camera. He got it.
There it goes.
Great.
[Marta] There are more in the bathroom.
Sergio, Sergio, Sergio
Over there. It faces the shower.
There's more in the living room.
[Greta] We're gonna lose them all.
[Marta] I'm sure there's one up there.
[breathing heavily]
[grunts]
This is what happens
when you work with kids.
[Cabrera] It's out of control.
We need the special operations team
in here right now.
We'll cordon off the area.
And tell them they need to send snipers.
I don't care if you have
to wake up the fucking secretary.
I need it now.
Come on!
Snipers, really?
Well, dead dogs don't bite.
I decided to help you
because Ana lost her way.
But you're no better than her.
- If something bad happens here
- What?
What?
I plan to tell them everything.
[chuckles]
You won't do anything. And you know why?
Because you're a coward.
[suspenseful music playing]
[exhales]
[Marta] They also watch you
when you're on the balcony.
[thunderclap]
Sergio, please stop. Please listen.
- Wait.
- Don't listen to her.
She manipulates everyone.
It's what she d
- [Ana] Sergio.
- [screams]
[Marta] Sergio
Please, listen.
Don't you dare touch her!
[Marta] What the fuck are you doing here?
You followed me here?
I didn't have to. I knew you'd be here.
I want you to get this
in your fucking head, we're over!
Marta. Please, wait.
[tense music playing]
Why don't you leave us alone?
Do you think I told her to come?!
Huh? Well, I don't care if she dies!
- [Marta exhales sharply]
- Marta.
Marta.
Sergio, I'm just trying to help you here.
- [yelps]
- You want to help me? Huh?!
Huh?! You want to help, right?
You're all listening, aren't you?
I'm only gonna say it once!
Bring me Noa right now, or I'll kill her!
I'll kill her!
We have to do something, Greta.
He's out of control.
I don't know what to do here, Mikel.
- [Marta cries]
- [Eneko grunts]
[both grunting]
[Eneko groaning]
[Marta] No! Sergio! No!
[panting]
[sinister music playing]
[Ana] Sergio.
- [panting]
- Don't do it.
Please, think of Noa.
Don't lose her again.
[brooding music playing]
[Mikel exhales]
Marta.
Marta, go.
[exhales sharply]
[ringing tone]
- [ringing tone]
- [clears throat]
Sorry to call so late,
but I have important information.
Cabrera bribed a researcher
to hack the hard drives
and destroy all the information on them
that was related to the laboratories.
This researcher, would they be
willing to speak with me on their own?
Yeah, he's already
speaking with you right now.
And I have evidence.
[suspenseful music playing]
I'll handle it.
[phone clicks]
[click]
[rain pattering]
[Eneko] Wait.
[poignant music playing]
Thanks.
Does it hurt?
Marta.
I know we've both done things
that we shouldn't have.
I
I've been a total asshole to you,
I know that.
But
But I love you, okay?
I love you, damn it.
We should just forget about
everything that happened and start over.
[poignant music rising]
[inaudible]
Marta.
[poignant music continues]
[cries softly]
[sobbing]
[thunderclap]
[Sergio] Noa's not coming, is she?
[Ana] I don't know.
They're not picking up the phone.
Neither her nor my husband.
[Sergio] Why don't you leave too?
[Ana] Because I've got nowhere to go.
[phone vibrating]
[Ana] Why did you hurt Blanca?
Yeah. Yeah, I'll open it.
[Sergio] You appreciated my mom, right?
[Ana] Very much.
She treated me better than my own.
[Greta] Hi.
[Sergio] You were luckier than me.
[door closes]
[Greta] Thanks for coming.
You're not the only one who insisted.
Is Sergio here?
No. No.
But you can see him.
[thunderclap]
[Ana] Sergio.
I need to understand you.
This is beyond me.
Why did you do it?
My mother started medicating Noa.
And I just couldn't handle it.
She could do whatever she wanted with me,
but not with her.
Noa was the only good thing I had.
I told her to stop,
but she wouldn't listen.
[thunderclap]
[poignant music playing]
And then my dad came.
And I told him.
He believed me.
So he demanded
that she stop the medication.
She just started screaming
and insulting him.
My dad finally told her no.
For the first time.
The argument became more and more violent.
[poignant music continues]
Until he pushed my mom off the balcony.
[Sergio] I couldn't believe it.
And my dad was saying, "What have I done?
What have I done? What have I done?"
[crying]
He just loved her so much.
And he knew
that he couldn't live without her.
So he jumped after her.
I could only think of Noa.
I couldn't let her come out
and see their bodies down there.
So I went to her room
until the police came.
Why didn't you tell them
what you've just told me?
Because they wouldn't have believed me.
My mom was a famous scientist.
And I was a kid with a bad reputation.
And I was still a minor.
So I knew
that I'd be able to get out soon.
And I could be with her again.
[voice breaks]
Noa's the only thing I care about.
[poignant music continues]
I hear you.
[exhales]
I'm the same as you.
I've never fit in either.
I've always been different too.
Everyone thinks I'm a little bit strange.
There are those
who don't understand that,
even though I'm different,
I'm still just a person.
I
I never found my place.
Not in school.
Not with my family.
I've always done
what I knew I was supposed to.
I got married.
I got pregnant.
But I lost it.
[voice breaks] And even then,
I didn't feel what I was supposed to.
I feel a terrible anguish.
[poignant music continues]
[sobbing]
I'm never going to hurt you.
I love you.
I love you.
[both sobbing]
[poignant music soaring]
I'm sorry.
[sobbing] I'm so sorry.
Mom is not okay.
She chose this path, Noa.
I have to go.
Noa, no.
Noa.
[police siren blaring]
[door opens]
Sergio.
[poignant music rising]
Sergio, what you said isn't true.
[young Noa] Okay, Mom.
I'll get a book and go to bed.
[door opens]
[door closes]
Hi, Sergio.
[door slams]
Sergio, don't you think it's late?
And you haven't taken your medication.
- I'll get it for you.
- No!
I'm not going to let
you poison me, never again!
[Blanca] We've talked about this.
You can't stop taking the treatment,
or only take it when you want.
You need to have a consistent schedule.
- Didn't you hear me?!
- Yes, I heard you perfectly.
Do you think I'll change my mind
if you raise your voice?
Yes!
[pounds door]
You scare your sister
when you behave this way.
[grunts]
So I have to let you torture me like this?
- [Javier] What's wrong?
- Nothing.
What's wrong?
- Sergio!
- Javier, please don't. Go with Noa.
[exhales]
[Noa] He's doing it again?
Yes, again, sweetheart.
You know he always gets over it.
- [Javier] I'm going to bed.
- All right.
Don't take the medication today,
and we'll lower the dose tomorrow.
[breathing heavily]
[loud, brooding noise]
[breathing shakily]
I'm done! You understand?!
[breathing shakily]
Give me that. [yelps]
[gasping]
[breathing shakily]
You see what happens
when you don't take your medication?
[Blanca breathes heavily]
- [Sergio grunts]
- [gasps]
[Sergio yelling]
[continues yelling]
Sergio, just breathe!
Just breathe, please!
Breathe!
- [Sergio screaming]
- [Blanca] Sergio, please!
Try to calm down.
- [Sergio screams]
- [gasps]
[intense music playing]
[music turns tense]
[gasps]
- [Sergio grunts]
- No, no! [yelps]
- [Sergio grunts]
- No!
[groans]
[breathing heavily]
[Blanca] Sergio, listen.
What you're experiencing
is just a mental block.
The absence of medication has caused
[grunts] a chemical imbalance
in the prefrontal cortex of the brain.
That causes rage.
[gasps]
- And violent impulses.
- [panting]
[Blanca] Please!
[groans]
[gasping]
[crying]
[Sergio breathing heavily]
Remember.
[panting]
You'll do the same thing to her,
won't you? [panting]
Do what to her?
You'll give her drugs
and study her like me, won't you?!
[screams]
[Blanca whimpers]
Javier!
[grunts]
Quickly!
Help!
Help me!
[Sergio grunts]
No! No!
No, no! No, no
- [Sergio grunting]
- No! No!
No, Sergio, please!
- [Sergio grunts]
- No!
[loud crash on car]
[car alarm blaring]
[breathing heavily]
[Javier] What have you done?
What have you done?
[blade clatters]
What have you done?
What have you done, you bastard?!
What have you done?!
You killed your mother!
- You killed her! [groans]
- [grunts]
- [Sergio grunting]
- [whimpers]
- [Sergio grunts]
- [screams]
- [body thuds]
- [girl screams]
[panting]
[car alarm blaring]
I was right there.
Noa.
She was giving me drugs.
And she was going to do the same to you.
She made our lives a living hell.
She was medicating you
because you were out of control.
We were scared of you.
That's not true, no fucking way.
What is not true is that Mom abused you.
She was cold and not very affectionate,
but she loved us. She even loved you.
And you killed her.
Then why the hell did you come?!
I'm not here for you.
Mom, let's go, come on.
[somber music playing]
He'll end up hurting you,
he's already started.
[police sirens blaring]
About fucking time, damn it.
[somber music continues]
[Noa, crying] Mom, please.
[somber music continues]
[sobbing]
[sniffles]
[door opens]
[door closes]
[somber music continues]
[sobbing]
[Ana cries]
[police siren blaring in distance]
[indistinct police radio chatter]
About time.
Subcommissioner Cabrera.
I'll go in with you.
You're not going anywhere.
That's not your decision.
Nope, it's our bosses' decision.
I've been ordered to arrest you.
Hey, hey, hey.
I know how this goes.
Noa!
Noa!
[poignant music plays]
[kisses]
Hey.
Hey.
[crying] Let's go home, Dad.
Come on.
[exhales]
[police siren blaring in distance]
[somber music playing]
What's he doing?
Sergio, no
Please, no.
[poignant music playing]
Where are you going?
[computer beeps]
[poignant music continues]
Ana, no fucking way!
[intense music playing]
[voices screaming]
[camera whirring softly]
[voices screaming]
[girl screams]
[police siren blaring]
[screams and sirens fade]
- [static buzzing]
- [sirens continue faintly]
[somber music playing]
