PREVIOUSLY
-Ever since we got here,
I feel like there's something weird
going on with the water.
After fifteen years we finally know
how she's special.
We have to go with Iris and Pedro, okay?
We have to contact her,
that's why we came back.
We can still protect her.
And there's no one
who can tell us anything else?
You're not thinking
about going to see her.
We all have a gift, Sofía.
Sometimes I feel lost,
different from others.
Why is this happening to me?
- Where do you hide her?
-Far away. Difficult to reach.
Sofía.
It's her.
The time is near.
There's some things
we need to tell you.
Things you don't know about.
Uh, what kind of things?
This is not the first time
we've been to Río Vivo.
We were here 15 years ago.
What?
This is where Sofía was handed over to us.
And where the four of us were created.
That's why we came back.
So, you were already aware
of her power over water.
No.
All we know is what you just told us.
We were told we needed to protect her
by taking her away from Río Vivo
and raising her in a normal way.
That was it. Our orders.
So, you're saying
you weren't told anything else.
- Is that really true?
-Yes, it's true.
We had to keep some things from you
because you're still so young.
So, now we're back
because we feel it's time
for us to learn more about it.
I contacted the person who asked us
to take care of Sofía,
but I still haven't heard back.
Oh. And those brothers
Fénix, are they the ones
we're protecting her from?
Is that why they were able to do
whatever they did?
I guess, some kind of hypnosis?
'Cause it seems like they must have
some sort of power.
And the only explanation
is that they're like us.
But that's impossible, right?
Um
No more secrets!
You might be right.
You told us we were unique.
That our talents were for taking care
of Sofía.
You kept us in the dark
because we were young?
What else are you hiding?
- We did the best we could.
-Hmm.
Let's focus on the fact
that we're answering your questions now.
Yes, there are others like us.
With their own skills and missions.
We know that our mission is to protect
a balance between the humans
and the natural environment.
Maybe these guys do have some
mission related to Sofía.
What I don't know, is why.
That is why it's important
that we contact Navera.
She's the one who gave us the mission.
I met someone like you,
a while back.
Someone who also had
a strong connection to water.
- What'd they do?
- That story was different than yours.
It's important that you accept it
as part of who you are.
It really is a gift.
Then why does it feel
like a curse?
I just really need to know
what's wrong with me, Navera.
I'm afraid. I'm afraid of hurting someone,
or or cause an explosion one day.
And what am I going to tell my parents?
You you have no idea
what my parents are like.
They're overprotective.
If they knew I had something
I couldn't control anytime I got nervous,
they'd never let me leave the house again.
The mind cannot still
that which the heart doesn't understand.
I don't think I follow.
I won't have an answer
for all of your questions.
However, what I can do is make
that which burdens you easier to carry.
I just went to study
with a friend after school.
I didn't need my bodyguard.
-Something wrong?
- No, nothing.
We were waiting
till you got here for dinner.
This is weird.
Okay, so my family
is normally weird, but this
Yeah. This is weirder than usual.
I told them. Had no choice.
Flox! We agreed to wait.
We made a siblings' pact.
We agreed to 24 hours.
This isn't something to hide.
Sofía, our focus right now is,
to understand more about this ability.
Yes? So, you understand yourself.
- So, you two believe me?
- Sure.
Of course. Yeah,
why wouldn't we believe you?
Well, I didn't think it was normal
for a daughter to have magical powers.
Could you give us an example
of what you do?
If you feel like it. Hmm?
Maybe, you could
pour this water out.
Not that you have to prove anything.
I'm still trying to learn
how to control it.
We believe you.
You don't have to prove anything.
- It's fine.
- But
I don't get it.
I've done this before.
I should be able to do it.
Mm-hmm. It doesn't matter. Just relax.
Did you learn anything
about Sofía or her parents?
- I told you I'm on it.
- Hurry it up!
We have to report to him soon
and I don't think he'll be
as patient with us as he was last time.
- Why doesn't he come do it himself, then?
- He can't come so easily, as you know.
Time is running out.
We need an answer quick.
Is that why you've started
a new investigative technique?
Trying to suck the answers directly
out of a girl's mouth.
Micael saw you kissing Emilia.
- Are you questioning my methods?
- I wouldn't dare.
Sofía was here
when the tree caught on fire
and Diana was with her.
Doesn't mean anything.
They were both at the party
when the sprinklers went off.
- It might be related.
- Okay.
I'll investigate it, then.
Yeah, Diana may know something,
but I'm interested in Sofía.
I don't think it's a coincidence
that her brother wanted a job here.
Micael is right.
That family is hiding something.
Is there anything you're not telling me?
Why are we looking for Aurora?
- It's our mission.
-I know.
But what will happen when we find her?
Instead of worrying about things
that don't concern you,
take care of Sofía.
There's something I didn't tell you.
I met a woman who seems to know
something about this stuff.
Who is this lady?
Tacu's aunt, my friend at school.
She understood me and gave me confidence.
But what what do you know about her?
- What's her name?
- Navera. That's her name.
She lives up the hill.
Hmm.
Well if she gave you confidence
If you think she's a good person,
you have our support.
What's up? Why are you staring like that?
I didn't expect that answer. It's weird.
Weird? No, it's not. No, of course.
We always worry about you.
So, Mom. Navera says that
what I have is a gift,
and that she can teach me
how to handle it.
She asked me if I wanted to stay
with her for a few days,
but I know what you and Dad will say,
so it doesn't matter.
No, no. Don't rule it out.
I don't get it.
You never let me do anything,
and when a stranger invites me over,
that's all right?
No, no, no. It's not like
she's really a stranger.
You said yourself, she's Tacu's aunt.
If she can help you
Sofía, what you have
it's special.
This time, I don't know if we
I don't know if I know how
I don't want you to feel alone.
Are you all right, Mama?
Never saw you like this.
Yeah, yeah. No, I'm fine, it's just
I think some pollen got into my eyes.
I can't wait to meet this Navera, was it?
Navera, right?
Yeah. Navera.
NATIONAL SCHOOL
Yeah, Lupo. I'll look for Sofía
in her classroom. Chill.
Last one to leave?
Yeah. I like chemistry.
Me, too.
We should get together sometime.
Exchange experiments.
- Yeah, sounds nice.
- I'm surprised.
- I expected you to say no.
- Well, I didn't say yes either.
I mean, how would I even know
if you're good at it.
How about,
what's your favorite way to experiment?
- With cold? Or with heat?
- And yours?
Do you like ones that cause
allergic reactions or dizziness?
Gotta go.
What?
Let me go!
Go ahead.
What? I know.
You like talking to me, right?
Then tell me. Your family?
You
- You are
- What?
Intelligent?
Good looking?
Out of my way!
She says you have a special
connection to nature?
Don't tell me you believe that.
I could have told you that
if you were looking for
a pseudo-scientific explanation.
I know what you're going to say,
"Not everything
has a scientific explanation."
But you know, that's what the crazies
who believe in horoscopes say.
- Diana, is something wrong?
- Me? Why? What could be wrong?
You brother and I are friends now.
I'm in the friend zone.
What?
Don't worry, I'll tell you later.
Gotta go.
You gonna tell me what's wrong
or keep spying on me?
- I'm the one spying? What about you?
- Really? Why would you say that?
- Are you mad at me?
- No!
- All right. Guess I better go.
- Hey, wait up.
You seem different, last few days.
- Something happen?
- So, you were spying on me, huh?
What?
- Does that hood help you sneak around?
- Sometimes, maybe.
You all right? You can tell me
anything you want.
I'm a good listener.
Don't think you'd understand, Gael.
Try me.
Sofía, I was looking for you. Wanna go?
We're going to study.
- Can I join you?
- Another time. Let's go.
You contacted Sofía before talking to us.
It was my duty.
You should never have come back.
You don't know the danger
you are exposing her to.
That's exactly the reason we came back.
How can we protect her when we don't know
what we're protecting her from?
We need to know the entire story.
Navera, you're the one who chose
not to tell us this 15 years ago.
- Iris is right. Sofía is going rebellious.
- Very.
- She was running away all the time.
- All the time.
We don't know what to keep her away from.
You left us with no other choice.
She wants to have friends!
- She wants to be with people
- Yes.
- like any teenager.
- She is not just any teenager.
Our missions require great sacrifices,
you know that. Still you disobeyed.
What else were we supposed to do?
What if she ran off?
What if she left and didn't come back?
You don't realize the consequences
of your return.
Your simple charge was to protect her.
By coming here,
you did the exact opposite.
Who are these guys called Fénix?
You know anything about them?
They came to town at the same time we did,
and they're not human.
At least not normal humans.
They used some kind of power
on Flox and Lupo.
They they said they were hypnotized
with heat.
- What? What is it, Navera?
- Let me worry about them.
But right now, it's imperative
that Sofía learns
about what's happening with her.
- Get her ready.
- Get her ready for what?
All good?
Yeah, we know.
I'll miss you a lot, you know?
Dad. Please take it easy.
I'm only going to be away from home
for a few days.
Okay then, Sofía.
Let's not waste any more time.
- You ready?
- Yes.
Eventually
you will be able to do many great things
with your power.
And I don't just mean controlling it.
Please close your eyes.
Let us feel the softness of the breeze.
We notice the sounds surrounding us.
The aroma
that this tree offers us.
And water? Isn't that our focus?
For now, let's not worry about it.
You know, Sofía, this tree here,
this particular one.
It bears a fruit that's very delicious.
When I was a child,
my grandmother used to tell me a story
about a little girl who lived here.
Not far away, down in the valley.
She wanted to taste the fruit.
It was all she could think about.
She couldn't wait for them to fall.
So, she came and plucked one.
It was sour.
It wasn't ready. Wasn't ripe.
So, you're saying
do not gather fruit before it's time?
Sometimes, we need to be patient
with ourselves,
with our development, with our emotions.
We are a part of a process.
We have to change the way
we view the world. Our thinking.
Only then, will we be able to really call
what's in our mind.
And then, we connect with everything
that surrounds us.
This teaches us to coexist with nature,
and thus, we have achieved balance.
What if I can't?
It's not something you're expected
to do right away.
You'll learn when you're ready.
They sleep here?
That fire is burning at all times.
Day and night.
They never let it go out.
- The fire.
- Ah.
I think something's
making them nervous lately.
They seem confused.
They are arguing with each other.
I don't understand
why you're telling me this.
Why are you here?
The place needs some repairs and painting.
I was just showing the kid.
Uh the roof.
Some boards need to be replaced.
Get out. Now.
When it snows in the winter,
the roof is gonna
Out! Now.
So, now you're a carpenter?
Well, there was nothing to do at the bar
so I thought I should stay busy.
I'll just go.
Incredible!
Where is Gael?
How would I know?
- Don't trust him?
- Why would you say that?
I don't know what Flox did to me but
it won't heal.
I know.
If Gael won't take care of Sofía,
I'll do it.
But first, we have to deal
with the other issue.
Let's go.
- Roberto always knows when to behave.
- What are you still here?
What about you? Why the hide and seek?
None of your business. Just go.
I've been kicked out enough times today.
What are you hiding from?
Nothing.
Ah. Roberto always used to hide
every time there was going to be a storm.
Look.
If you don't like the way
your brothers do things,
- you can always go your own way.
- I know that.
So, then why why are you hiding?
Get me a drink.
Were you ever in a situation
there was something you had to do,
but you had doubts about it?
I'm old, you know.
I wouldn't even remember.
- This is about the girl, right?
- No.
The one where the family
doesn't like you?
No.
Your brothers don't approve
of her either, do they?
I'm not talking about that.
- I'm talking about obligations.
-Oh.
This reminds me of a movie
I saw a long time ago in black and white.
Listen. He was in love with the girl,
but if he stayed with her,
he was letting his country down.
- How?
- You relate to this one?
It was something political, you see?
The man had to make a choice.
He had to choose
what was more important to him.
Was it his love or his obligation
to something higher,
his homeland, his country.
- What'd he choose?
- His obligation to his country!
Staying with the girl
would have been a betrayal to himself,
what he believed in.
You're too young,
you wouldn't understand.
Hmm.
Roberto says he agrees.
Lupo is waiting on the forest trail.
Thank you.
I still have so many questions.
I know,
but those answers will come in time.
Just stay in tune with your instincts,
and be careful, Sofía.
- Always be wary.
-Of what?
Whatever you do,
stay away from the fire.
WEST TRAIL VIEWPOIN
Lupo, where are you?
Navera told me you'd be
on the Eastern trail.
I'm already here. Are you coming or not?
I don't know if I should wait or go on.
NEW MESSAGE FROM GAEL
WE NEED TO TALK.
I NEED YOU TO KNOW SOME THINGS ABOUT ME.
