A NETFLIX SERIES
Watch out, my trouble's come ♪
Just like that one time ♪
Better get ready, I'm comin' in hot ♪
Don't care what people say
I'll do it anyway ♪
I'll do whatever, whenever I want ♪
Um, so we gotta go
to the Saint John's party, right?
To celebrate school's out.
Saint John's Eve? The festival of witches?
But wait, Javi.
The four of us should go in pairs.
Look, you and I should go.
And then you two.
And then we can switch partners.
What? Are we really not gonna go
to the party over this nonsense?
It's only nonsense to you, okay?
- Good luck with the exam.
- Mm-hmm.
- Shall we?
- Coming.
Oh shit. Irene.
Does she know anything?
Ugh, God. If Asier told her anything,
you're dead.
Well, let's see.
She can't kill you in school, can she?
- No. Huh?
- Amaia.
- Oh, hey.
- I'm still screwed.
Javi hasn't forgiven me,
and someone stole my cell phone.
Did you do what I said?
I apologized, and I'm being nice.
Do I have to, like, give him flowers?
Well, I don't know, Chivite.
Listen, we'll talk after the exam, okay?
Hey, no, no, no, no.
You're not scamming me, are you?
What? No. No, man. What a thing to say.
Yikes. Let's see
how you get rid of this pain in the ass.
Come with me.
Amaia, this is an art form
you've already mastered.
Do your magic.
Let me see your hand.
- Why?
- Give me your hand.
Is something wrong at your house?
Like what?
Like with your dad? Um, everything cool?
What's up with my dad?
- There's a problem with him, right?
- No!
No. Actually, a secret.
Yeah. A secret.
Look, unless you solve what's going
on in your house, you can't move forward.
I can't really help you.
Hey, good luck with the test.
You can start now, okay?
You have 45 minutes.
Uh-oh.
MEET ME IN THE SCIENCE ROOM LATER
You know that I ain't mad about it ♪
Come on now, that I've had it ♪
Because I love it, love, love, love ♪
Look,
they're gonna find your corpse right here,
right next to Patxi, the class skeleton.
So tacky, Amaia. And majorly decrepit.
- Hey, Amaia.
- Hi.
You don't know anything.
Just be like,
"What cards? Did I say what?"
"No, no, no. We were drunk."
When you're drunk, nothing you say counts.
- How's things?
- Bad.
I had an argument with Asier Saturday.
Hey, that could be good.
Or bad. Or mean nothing at all.
He showed up at my house unannounced.
And in a bad mood.
Asking why we argue so much now
and what changed.
And then he asked me
if I was still in love with him.
No fucking way.
Is that a joint? Seriously?
And I said no.
So we're done.
Holy shit.
That's fucking amazing, Amaia!
Fucking so great!
I told him that he's my best friend,
but I don't love him that way.
I feel like shit now because
Why do I have to hurt someone else
to be okay with who I am?
Um, so
you didn't tell him that
No way.
Still haven't told him I'm a lesbian.
So then, you talked,
uh, you ended it, and that's it?
You haven't spoken since?
Well, what's important
is that you're all right.
Because you are, right?
I'm relieved.
It's like, there's one less problem
occupying space in my head.
Yeah.
Amaia, you can't tell anyone
in town about this.
You're the only person I've told.
- No. Of course not. My lips are sealed.
- Okay?
- Come here.
- Why is she hugging you?
Thank you. You're a great friend.
And why is she so damn nice?
Amaia, a "for auction" sign
has just been hung on Asier.
And you're gonna bid.
You've been chasing his ass,
and now you're gonna act cool? No.
If something happens,
well then, all right.
You don't hook up with him,
someone else will.
Like me, girl.
No, but seriously,
why did Irene tell you all this?
Are you two besties?
- Hmm. I don't really know, trust me.
- Oh, you poor thing.
Hey, wait, I'm coming.
But that was slick,
gathering information by casting cards.
That's how you knew.
No. Look, I didn't ask her
for that information.
I mean, she just told me
well, because she wanted to.
"She wanted to." Yeah, right.
Weren't you the one
who said, "Talk to her"?
- Well, sure. Yeah, but I
- Hey, why does it even matter?
They'll have made up again
by Saint John's Eve, right?
- Later, hot stuff.
- See ya.
Now you blow right here,
on my knuckles.
Ugh, this asshole again?
In a month, he'll be living here.
- Where's the coin?
- Where is it?
- Where is it?
- Voilà.
Ah! Magic, huh?
Amaia, have a seat.
Throw your bag down. Come eat.
I got us a roast chicken.
No. No, I'm not hungry.
I'll be in my room.
I'll get chewed out
in three, two, and
- Amaia
- What is it?
Why can't the four of us
have a meal together?
You love chicken.
Not roast chicken.
He did it to butter me up or something?
- Amaia, he wants you to like him.
- What are you even talking about?
- He hates me. I failed his test.
- Why do you need to act like that?
Amaia,
tell her you're just like her.
He gets along great with Ona,
and I really like him. Understand?
But you've already decided
that you don't like him.
You know what?
You can't manipulate me into liking him.
Well, at least you could make an effort
for me.
- Why?
- I'm tired.
Amaia, you're older,
and you understand perfectly well.
It's been really hard for me to come back,
so just, please, would you help me?
Put yourself in my shoes for once.
I need to study.
September 2004?
Oh fuck. Oh fuck!
Bernardo Santesteban.
What if it's him?
What if he's your father?
Hey!
Hey!
Hey, you! Hey, wait! No!
Stop it!
Oh, thanks.
LAURA, I DON'T WAN
TO BEAT AROUND THE BUSH
JAVI, TODAY I'M GOING TO MEET MY FATHER
Come on.
Go in, see the look
on his face, and leave.
No, no, no, better yet, go in,
see his face,
tell him who you are, then leave.
- This is perfect for him, I think.
- Okay.
- How old is he?
- Almost ten.
- And what grade?
- Fourth grade.
- Okay, fourth? That's great.
- Mm-hmm.
Here's a schedule
of classes for all different levels.
So, he'll start here, probably,
and then he'll move up
to complete these levels.
Okay.
All right. Sound good?
- Looking for a specific violin?
- Uh, um, no.
No, I I'm just looking around.
It's just, um I need a gift for a friend,
but I'm not sure what to get him.
Well, have a look around.
And if you have any questions,
um, I'm here.
- Okay.
- Jeez, Amaia.
What do you mean, something for a friend?
Come on, it's not that hard.
Ask him about his son,
Bernardo Santesteban.
Use your imagination.
Right here is a bit of a higher level.
Um Okay, that's it.
Seventeen years ago,
the store was different.
Have you guys painted? Now it's blue.
Oh, well, years ago.
Like, um Like three or four.
- No. No, wait, wait. Even more. Hey, Asun.
- Yeah?
- How long ago did we paint?
- Uh, I'm not sure.
For our silver wedding anniversary?
Look at that.
It's been six years now.
It's just that I remember,
when I was last here,
I met a guy who was about,
like, 40 years old or so.
- I guess it was your son.
- No, we don't have any children.
Oh. Maybe a relative or an employee?
Impossible.
My wife and I have been here alone
for almost 20 years now.
No. No, it can't be.
How old was he 17 years ago? Like 50?
- Bernardo.
- Hmm?
Where did you move
the guitar picks? Again.
Over there.
Our time is coming ♪
That's why he broke up
with your mom.
Because he was married to this lady here.
That's him. That's your father.
Sweetheart, is something the matter?
Are you all right?
What? Um, no. Yeah.
It's just, I
I left my wallet at home, so
I I'll go grab it and come right back
We fall down ♪
We fix ourselves ♪
When we fall down ♪
There's no one else ♪
- The heat is on ♪
- What's going on with this thing?
It's all or nothin' ♪
I'm tired of ♪
Bein' anything but the best ♪
I break the noise ♪
I'm passing through ♪
'Cause what's fallen
Will never fall again ♪
This time we're breakin' through ♪
- Where you been?
- I was with Javi.
I was tryin' to cook ramen.
Since you really like it.
Can I help you?
- You want to?
- Yeah, of course I do.
- What do I do?
- Uh, peel the carrots.
- Okay.
- Be careful. That's sharp.
Mm-hmm.
And what about the leek?
You chop it, but first, you weigh it.
Here. With this, right here.
- Mom, you don't eat the green part.
- Oh, you don't?
- No.
- Well, then don't weigh that part.
Did you weigh the ginger?
Well, I'm waiting on a job.
They tell me tomorrow.
I'll tell you what they say.
- Good luck.
- A big kiss.
Moussa, I
No, it's just I love you.
Are you okay?
- Yeah, yeah. I'm doing great.
- Yeah? Are you sure?
Of course. I just, um
Well, I just wanted to let you know.
- All right. A kiss.
- Later.
HEY, ASIER
Hey, wait.
What are you gonna say?
Let's see. Act close but not too close.
You're just texting him,
well, because you're nice.
That's who you are. Nice.
You care about people,
about the planet, and about him.
HOW'S IT GOING?
Okay, now's when he asks you
to meet for a drink
and sends you a flaming heart emoji.
Okay, well, let's not go crazy.
Maybe just the drink thing.
And then, like,
a beer emoji or a coffee one.
Or know what? No emoji at all.
LET'S MEET TOMORROW,
AND I'LL TELL YOU THEN?
Well, he did text an emoji.
Hmm.
- It's cold today, isn't it?
- Yeah, I should have worn long pants.
- Mm-hmm. What are you gonna buy?
- Shit, it's that guy again, dude.
- Uh, what guy?
- Do you know him?
I saw him the other day at school.
I'd never seen him before. It's bad vibes.
Maybe he was just there with a friend.
Yeah. That's all I need this year,
getting followed by some dick
who wants to beat the shit out of my ass.
Don't be so damn dramatic.
- Can I please have some salami?
- Don't be dramatic?
Girl, do you watch the news?
There are countless homophobic attacks.
And they're mostly not even reported.
It's a small town.
You run into people here.
He's not following you.
And give me some bacon too.
Chivite did the same thing to me before.
He would follow me, then he wouldn't.
And in the end, I was scared every day.
- Maybe you'll never see him again.
- It's 10.50, Lucía.
- Mm.
- Sure.
And if he does anything,
we go to the police and report it.
And that's it.
Can you wrap it for me?
Hey.
I stopped by your house before.
Your mom said you were here.
I gotta go home.
I have some stuff to handle.
Mm-hmm.
Thank you. See you next Sunday.
I'm out too. I have stuff to handle too.
Are you just gonna run away?
You gonna do that when we see each other?
No, I'll say hi.
"Hi, Zhao." See? We're good.
What are you doing?
I just wanted to see you because
I wasn't trying to be a prick to you.
- That wasn't my doing. It was Jose Luis.
- Well, how convenient.
You didn't do anything.
It was all Jose Luis. That's great, Zhao.
Well, okay. It's my fault.
But forgive me. What can I do?
- I'll get on my knees.
- Don't even think about it. Seriously.
My God. Shit.
- Everyone's looking at us!
- Lucía, please forgive me, homie!
- Everyone's looking at us. Get up!
- Lucía, forgive me!
Zhao! Get up. Everyone's looking at us.
Fuck!
Are you still upset?
A little bit.
Man, I really don't care
if people think I'm a slut.
But for you to think so
I don't really think you're a slut.
I wish I was
half as much a slut as you.
- Okay, sure.
- It's true.
I wish I was more like you
and a bit less like me.
So, what? You just wanted to hurt me?
No, I was just fucked up,
and I wanted to mess with you.
Then Jose Luis took control.
Well, tell Jose Luis to calm down
and that real friends don't hook up,
because friends are forever.
And one-night stands are, well, just that.
I don't think you read
between the lines.
What lines?
She said that you're more important
than any other random guy
she might hook up with.
So?
Well, that's love, right?
She loves me like a friend.
No. It's that she loves you more
than Jokin or Mateo or anyone else.
I wanted to know if I made her
if I made her pool wet. Now I know.
Olympic-sized pool,
and not a drop of water.
Zhao, all right.
I think she likes you, but she's scared.
Because you're friends,
and if all of a sudden you guys hook up,
and it doesn't work out, that's fucked.
No, Amaia, you're losing it.
Well, I'm just saying,
don't give up so easily.
She told me no, Amaia. N-O. No.
- Well, it's just that
- Hey, no, Amaia!
What is this?
Well, a dying plant.
- And this?
- It's a cactus.
- And do they look similar?
- No.
Well, a yes and a no aren't similar.
And to me, she said no.
I dunno if it's happened to you.
You meet someone,
and then you can't get the person
out of your head ever.
Yeah. It's the first thing
you think of when you wake
and the last before you sleep, right?
Totally.
In Basque, if you're in love,
it's "maiteminduta."
And translated, that's like,
"wounded by love."
Well, but, that feeling eventually fades.
I was a dick the other day.
I'm sorry, really. I took it out on you.
Yet, here you are.
You're really fuckin' great.
Amaia.
I know Irene
didn't tell me the whole truth.
Why do you say that?
Is she with another guy?
Have you heard at all? I don't know.
Everyone in school
will know soon if it's true.
Let's keep walking.
- Why? You know something?
- Asier, it doesn't matter now.
Please, tell me.
No. No, no. She's not seeing a guy.
Then maybe if I talk to her
at Saint John's Eve, I can fix it.
Uh, no.
No, look
Asier, I'm going to tell you
because, otherwise, you won't let it be.
All right, she told me in confidence that
- Um
- Yeah? What did she say?
Amaia, please.
Well, she likes girls.
She told me that that she's a lesbian.
- That's That's impossible. No way that
- Fuck.
I told her
I wouldn't say anything.
Okay. Please, Asier, don't tell her.
- Okay?
- No, no.
- LUCÍA: WHAT TIME?
- ZHAO: IT STARTS AT NINE
I'LL BE LATE. SEE YOU THERE.
- Amaia!
- Yep?
Amaia! Guess what!
Ona, I'm busy.
We're moving back to Barcelona!
Well, what everyone is saying,
and pay attention because this is good,
is that Irene is a lesbian.
People get bored and make stuff up.
Andrea told me
that Jokin told her and Asier told him.
Seriously dude, it sounds like
your typical case of telephone.
Damn, Amaia, come on, man.
She's gonna be even later.
She's the new you.
Watch it.
Well, I still think Asier and Irene
are getting back together.
No way! Irene's all mine.
Yeah, right. You wish.
Seriously. We had sex a few months ago.
- Sure.
- Didn't I tell you?
Right, of course you did.
You totally had sex, yeah.
In your imagination!
You were jerkin' it, man.
Hey, It's DJ Chivite on the decks!
- Whoo! I love this song! Whoop, whoop!
- Well, let's dance! Hey!
And Mom knows about it?
I'm sure the three of us
will convince her.
Uh, well, it's true,
and Moussa said he's waiting on a job
Well, first,
he needs to find an apartment.
You have to be patient, okay?
I'm sure Dad
will get it together really fast.
Yeah, well, I don't know.
I'm just saying, we'll see what happens.
Besides, you know, Ona,
you've got some cool stuff going on here.
There's your friends and Íñigo.
You like Íñigo a lot.
ASIER: YES. I'M COMING!
REALLY? I'M HEADING THERE NOW
ASIER: SEE YOU SOON
This town has
some really great things about it.
What's the matter,
you don't wanna go back?
We'll talk about it tomorrow, okay?
I have to go, and I'm really late.
- Don't you wanna go back?
- Ona. Seriously, tomorrow, okay?
And that's how you enter a party.
When everyone else
is already here,
and you're the only one missing.
Then, when you get there,
everybody stares at you.
Because they were all waiting for you.
And why are they waiting?
Well, because you are
the fucking queen of this fucking party
and this whole fucking town.
I trusted you. I thought we were friends,
but apparently not.
Psst.
Are you here to say, "I told you so?"
"Who the fuck do I think I am?"
I am an asshole, that's who.
Well, an asshole, you say?
Nah, you're not.
I deceived everyone, Javi.
I don't have any power.
I just told them what I thought
they wanted to hear, that was it.
I even used what I knew about them
to get what I wanted.
I know you tried to tell me, I know.
But that's it, you know? It's done.
And I I'm done casting cards
and doing spells and potions.
No reading palms. I'm done.
Oh, you were reading palms?
- Yeah.
- Jesus.
But I'm scared.
'Cause if I don't cast cards,
then what?
Who am I then?
You're you.
Amaia, my friend.
I'm sorry.
It's strong, huh?
No.
Okay, don't panic, all right, girl?
I got your emergency kit.
Let's see.
Oh, sweetie.
What? Ugh, this is so gross.
I'm all sticky.
I'm like Carrie,
but like the boozy version.
Oh, well. Irene must've just found out
what happened at Chivite's party.
Jealous ex. That's all.
One time, this chick
threw a cell phone at my head.
- You remember, right?
- You dodged it like in The Matrix!
Why'd she do it?
She knew that her boyfriend had cheated,
but she didn't know who he did it with.
And I was completely wasted
and didn't know a thing.
Now, I admit I have a reputation.
But I don't know, man.
Ask me first
or something, right?
That's that.
- You're stunning, babe.
- Come on, let's go.
- Come on!
- Let's go.
Bury me in the ground.
No, Amaia, no!
We're having fun,
and nobody's going to ruin it.
- That's right!
- Okay, look.
Give me two minutes.
Um, I'll get fixed up real quick.
And then we'll have a toast, boo.
A dope fuckin' toast,
and no fuckin' cheap booze.
Okay.
Let's go!
- I'll just leave this here, 'kay?
- Okay.
See you soon.
- Let's go!
- To the bar, race ya!
ASIER: YOU HERE YET??
I DON'T SEE YOU.
Come on, Amaia.
You didn't come all this way for nothing.
Wipe that face off, and go for it.
- Hey, Asier!
- One more.
- What's up, guys?
- Hey.
Let's go find everyone else.
- Let's go, yeah?
- All right.
Hey, how's it goin'?
- How are you?
- I'm good.
- Should we go talk for a bit?
- Huh?
I said, do you wanna go talk?
- Yeah? Mm-hmm.
- Mm-hmm. Okay.
How are you?
Well, it's almost like the pieces
of the puzzle started to fit.
Have you talked again?
No. I avoid her every chance I get.
Anyway, we used to argue every day.
It was like being on a
I don't know, roller coaster.
Maybe it's just
it's the best thing for both of us.
Yeah, maybe so.
But hey, Asier. It's Saint John's Eve.
Let's not talk about your ex, huh?
Yeah, you're right.
Um, let's change the subject.
Um we can go have a drink with the guys.
Uh, I really don't feel like it.
I'm okay like this.
All right.
All right!
Yeah, DJ Chivite!
I'm sorry. It's just so much partying
and shouting, and everyone's wasted.
- Sorry, I know I'm boring.
- No. You're not boring.
Yes, I am.
No, Asier, seriously.
I think you're perfect.
No way.
What are you doing?
I'm sorry.
No, I'm sorry, it's just that
I thought that
What did you think?
Nothing. Nothing.
That's the problem.
I wasn't thinking. I'm really sorry.
Look, Amaia, I don't want to be rude,
but I don't want anything with you.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This whole Irene thing, it's recent, and
No, even if it wasn't recent.
No.
Was that why you outed Irene?
Huh? No, I told you
because you asked about it.
No. I asked
if she was seein' someone else.
And with the cards?
What about the cards?
Asier, I cast the cards
because you asked me to do it.
Now I get it all.
Another puzzle that's clear.
I don't get it. What puzzle?
Amaia, I have one question. Just one.
- Asier
- No, enough bullshit.
Did you do all of this to hook up with me?
Huh?
So it's true what they say.
- You are a witch.
- No, come on!
Asier, I did it
because you guys weren't okay.
That's what you said.
- Fuck you, Amaia.
- Asier!
Amaia!
Amaia?
What's goin' on?
I'm going to Barcelona.
Chivite!
It might piss you off,
but how good of a DJ is Chivite?
Oh, shit. It's that dude again.
Come on, you guys.
Oh, man! Damn, he's cute!
He's super cute, but so what?
He can't go around staring at people.
Dude, he's staring
in this general direction.
He and his little gang can't scare me,
because I'm not going to be terrorized.
- Javi, don't even think about it. Javi!
- Hey, you!
What are you looking at, huh?
If you have a problem, say it to my face.
It's nothing. I I've just seen you
in town and at our school.
Yeah, I noticed. Why am I being followed?
- What? You're not.
- He's not following me.
Do you think I'm an idiot?
You don't think I know what's going on?
Well, okay, yeah
yeah, okay, I'm following you a little.
But it's because I wanted
to tell you something,
but every time, I just
Well, here I am.
What do you want to tell me?
Nothing.
What do you mean, nothing?
I, uh
I'm into you.
Ooh!
What's in Barcelona, huh?
The weather's overrated.
Uh, my friends, for example?
Yeah, and you have us here.
Javi, Lucía, and me.
The Chinese guy, the fatty,
the gay kid, and the new girl.
It sounds like a bad joke without you.
No.
Besides, I mean,
why would you leave because of a guy?
- It's not because of him.
- Oh, come on.
Well, maybe.
And because I just embarrassed myself.
Twice in the same night.
That's a good enough reason.
Miriam threw up on a speaker.
It's covered in puke right now.
That's not the same, no. Mine's worse.
- No.
- Yeah.
- Hey, I need it way more than you do.
- Give it to me. Hey!
- Hey!
- Amaia!
Amaia, what?
Wait. Lemme see.
Dude. Jeez, man. What did you put in this?
Well Well, nothing. I lost my balance.
Okay, right.
Hey you and I? It's crazy, isn't it?
Yeah, we're a perfect match.
Yeah, for sure.
- Girl, you can't go.
- You can't tell me what to do.
I was gonna play a great song.
Hey, wait. You know what?
I have a rule, all right?
This is my party, and no one can ruin it.
All right, let's go!
All right. What's this great song
you're gonna play?
- I'll let you pick.
- Ah.
No. You definitely didn't message.
I would remember.
Yes, of course I did.
But I didn't upload pictures.
I didn't want anyone to find out.
Wait, you're Shy2005?
That's right, I'm the guy.
- I'm Javi.
- Uh, Romeo.
Yeah, I'm Juliet.
It's Romeo.
Seriously?
I know. It's crazy, right?
Plus, it's my grandma's
original recipe.
This will land you
your ideal man. Your Romeo.
Someone hit me up,
but he doesn't have a photo.
Shy2005 again. It doesn't matter.
I'll just leave him on read.
That's not how it works.
What happened
when we just trusted magic?
We want Fran Chivite to suffer
and to feel real fear.
Chivite. He crashed his bike.
He's in the hospital.
Zuri and Jokin made up
just after the spell.
You have a gift. You're special, chosen.
The chosen one.
Do you believe in magic?
Well no.
No, neither did I.
But I do now.
Oh, really?
I think so.
You want the headphones?
Wow. And who caused all this?
You, Amaia.
And you know what that means?
That you are the witch of this town.
And your magic has only just begun.
Well, hey, it looks like you are
a little bit special, after all.
I wanna go ♪
There's a darkness at the edge of town ♪
Everybody here gets warned about ♪
Hidden, like my love for you ♪
Forbidden, like my love for you ♪
There's a sadness
To this resting place ♪
Walls and flowers have decayed ♪
Risen like a midnight sun ♪
Risen and I know my time has come ♪
Blood is pumpin' through your veins ♪
You're lickin' your lips
And you're ready again ♪
Welcome to the night ♪
We're open to receive ♪
Welcome to eternal life ♪
To all those who believe ♪
Welcome, la, la, la, la, la ♪
Welcome, la, la, la, la, la ♪
Yeah ♪
Welcome to the night ♪
