'Til Dawn

A NETFLIX SERIES
[line ringing]
- [intense rhythmic music]
- [Jana] Damn it, Esteban. Pick up.
[Dixon] Jana!
- [automated voice] You've reached
- Calm down.
- [Jana] It was you, asshole.
- What?
You sabotaged us.
Jana, stop being so paranoid.
Paranoid? You've been
screwing with us from the start.
If you're accusing me,
I hope you have proof.
Like your confession?
The video had to be uploaded
from a school account.
[intense rhythmic music continues]
Who uploaded the video?
I told you, Jana.
Be careful who you keep close,
because they'll betray you.
[school bell ringing]
- Did you do it?
- [Luka] This again.
Why don't you go ask
your country bumpkin boyfriend?
Oh wait, he ran away.
Esteban wouldn't do that.
[chuckles sarcastically]
Do you know that for a fact?
Or is it because you fell for his
"poor but noble" act?
We all know
Esteban never told us the truth.
But that's okay. I don't judge.
We all have our secrets.
Or do you still think that Dixon here
is from a rough part of Bogotá?
You know nothing, bro.
You think a poor guy
could afford that haircut?
And what about his watch or his sneakers?
Cut the shit.
Look at him.
What about you, Selena?
The devout Christian girl,
but with parents in the US
who are so "liberal"
they sent her to Mexico
to become a pop star? Really?
It worked for Taylor Swift,
but she's one in a million.
You know nothing about me, Luka.
Maybe not, but I know that Jana
brought us all together for her benefit.
[Andi] And you, Luka?
You're here running your mouth,
but you're hiding something.
I'm an open book.
You have a lot of nerve.
[Luka] Everything I said is true.
You can't get far in life by being naive.
I'm the only one telling the truth.
We're not friends.
We were pretending.
[theme music playing]
My name's not Dixon.
[in English] Really?
[in Spanish] My parents are two
of the most renowned lawyers in Colombia.
They never had time for me, so I grew up
with my grandpa near the coast.
He put me in a Catholic school.
I wasn't exactly famous
for being a rapper.
I was an altar boy.
[Andi chuckles] No way.
Why did you lie?
My dream was always to be a rapper.
That's why I came to this country.
But who would ever respect a rapper
who wasn't from the streets?
I lied to my parents.
They didn't want me to come to Mexico,
or EWS.
So I told them
that I was studying
at a religious music conservatory.
[in English] And so far, we're here.
[in Spanish] They trust me a lot.
[MJ] Andi.
What?
You don't have anything to say?
You're among friends.
We won't say anything.
What? The thing with Emilia? [scoffs]
- What thing?
- [MJ] They're dating!
[Andi] No, no, no.
We just hooked up, and that's it.
- So, you're sleeping with the enemy?
- The enemy, really?
- She's with Sebas.
- [Andi] And?
Besides, I don't have to tell anyone
what I do.
But how did you find out?
[laughing]
[chuckles]
[MJ] Your turn, Jana.
Do you want to tell us anything?
[snickers] Like what?
Do you think we'd be friends
if it weren't for the band?
[rhythmic instrumentals]
[Emilia] Mm.
I can't.
What? Why not?
The choreography is easy.
Your perfume. You smell like my mom.
If you don't want to rehearse, say so.
But don't make things up.
[music stops]
This isn't the rehearsal room
for disqualified contestants.
[chuckles sarcastically] Is this where
your band meets to wear animal costumes?
Let's talk about that.
Can you give me a minute?
- We're in the middle of
- [Sebas] One minute.
No. You can't order me around.
You're not the boss.
Love, can you give me five minutes?
I have to talk to Luka.
Love, you should use those five minutes
to get rid of that horrible smell.
[Luka exhales loudly]
I don't get it.
You forced me to do all of that,
and now Without Name is disqualified.
You said I'd win the Battle of the Bands,
now you're icing me out.
What about what you promised me?
- You went quiet.
- You don't give the orders.
Be patient. We're not on your time.
[laughs softly] Really?
[clicks tongue]
I don't have patience.
So, you know what?
I'll go to Celina's office.
I'll show her the video
If she asks [sucks breath through teeth]
I'll tell.
Your lame costume party will be over
in two seconds.
[tense music playing]
Why don't you try that.
Tell me how it goes.
- [students chattering indistinctly]
- [birds chirping]
We would be friends.
I mean, obviously,
if the circumstances were different,
maybe we wouldn't have even spoken.
But that's life, right?
For whatever reason, you move out,
you end up in a classroom
where you meet incredible people,
super talented people.
People you grow fond of.
That's what happened to us. Right?
The Battle of the Bands gave us that.
Do you really think Esteban betrayed us?
The video is from his account.
What if someone made him?
- [intriguing music playing]
- You don't think he did it on purpose?
Who wanted us
out of the Battle of the Bands?
The Lodge.
Sebas.
Is there any chance he'll confess again?
Obviously not,
but he's not the only member.
We need to find someone else.
And who else does he hang out with?
[chuckles] Only idiots.
[Dixon] Only idiots and?
Who is he always with?
[Andi] No way, Dixon.
I'm not saying Emilia's part of The Lodge,
but she's the closest person to Sebas.
It's just for show.
Emilia hates him.
You have nothing to lose by asking her.
Sure. "Hey, Emilia.
Are you part of The Lodge?"
"I wish you'd told me before.
It really would've helped us out."
Please.
If you're so sure,
there's nothing to worry about.
[MJ, in English] True.
[Dixon] True.
[dramatic music playing]
Do you really think
I'm some dumb rich girl
that spends her time playing
with a dumb secret club?
And with that idiot, Sebas?
I thought you knew me better.
It's just you're always with him.
[Emilia] Rehearsing!
That's when he's not throwing fits
and kicking me out like trash.
Are you really doubting me?
[chuckles] No.
It's just
Fucking Sebas.
He's the reason we're disqualified,
and now we have to find out
who's behind The Lodge.
And you thought I was?
Do you have any ideas?
Honestly,
I always thought he was sleeping
with someone.
[chuckles] Okay. Who?
I don't know, but she smells bad.
Her perfume smells like my mom's.
So he's sleeping with someone older.
[Emilia] Mm.
Or at least someone with bad taste.
Dude, Sebas is banging some lady.
Yeah, I saw a used condom in his dorm.
No, like he's banging an older lady.
[Jana] Ew.
An older lady as in
like my grandma?
[laughing] No, not that old.
Emilia thinks it's someone older than him.
[Jana laughing]
Like our biology teacher?
- [Jana chuckles]
- I don't think she's really his type.
- Anita.
- [Andi] What?
Anita!
I saw her last night
going into a classroom.
What kind of assistant
stays at school that late?
And what would she be doing
in a classroom so late?
- Hooking up with someone.
- Exactly.
How do we know it was Sebas?
It makes total sense for The Lodge
to have someone in the administration.
Anita's the perfect candidate.
I'm sure she could get the key
to the RBD uniforms.
And even if it's not her,
we could still expose her.
It's against the rules
for an employee to sleep with a student.
But we don't have any proof.
It's always the same.
I might have a plan.
[intriguing music playing]
Need something?
Celina's busy right now.
That's fine, I'll wait.
[Anita] She'll be a while.
If you want,
I can tell her you stopped by.
No, don't worry. I have time.
Let me explain.
Her afternoon is swamped.
Between the finale,
your friend's disappearance
He's not my friend.
[Anita] No, no, no, of course not.
A friend doesn't betray
those who trust him.
But anything you want to tell Celina,
you can tell me. Okay?
What's wrong, Luka? You seem worried.
Nothing.
Okay.
Okay, I'm glad.
I mean, what could a Colucci
be worried about? [chuckles]
Things always work out for you.
Right? [chuckles]
[intriguing music continues]
All right. I'll come back later.
Great.
Esteban took his things
and won't answer his phone.
What kind of school
lets its students just leave?
Believe me when I say
I'm very concerned about your son.
[sighs]
He wouldn't have left if he hadn't been
accused of something so ridiculous.
I want to give your son
a chance to explain himself.
What matters now is finding him.
Do you have any idea where he could be?
[sighs]
Maybe.
[sultry lounge music playing]
[woman singing indistinctly
in different room]
[woman] Hi.
[Esteban] Hi.
[woman] Do you work here?
[Esteban] No. I'm here to see Rocío,
but I'm early.
[woman] It's worth the wait.
Really?
Are you?
[woman chuckles]
A fan.
Rocío's one of the best singers I know.
Seriously.
Why is one of the best singers you know
in a place like this?
You need more than talent to make it.
[Esteban] Like connections?
It always helps to be in the right place
at the right time,
but it's not everything.
I think it has a lot to do
with who you know.
That's true.
For better
and for worse.
[dramatic percussive music playing]
[Jana, through phone] Anita's leaving.
She's heading for the dorms.
[phone chiming]
She didn't stop by Sebas' room.
[Dixon, whispering] She's headed
toward the basketball court.
No way.
She's gone.
What do you mean? Where did she go?
[Andi] I don't know. She turned a corner.
She must be meeting Sebas somewhere else.
Where else could they be hooking up?
[Andi] The janitor's closet,
the music room,
the kitchen, behind the kitchen.
Aren't there dumpsters behind the kitchen?
[Andi] Pretty much anywhere after 10 p.m.
The chapel
Since when is there a chapel here?
[Anita] It's too late.
I mean, to be out of your room.
I know. I couldn't sleep.
I understand.
It happens to me all the time.
If you want, we can take a walk together
until you get tired.
[sighs] Sure.
Sleepwalking?
I've never heard that excuse before.
It's a real condition. It's serious.
Look, another sleepwalker.
There must be an outbreak.
Maybe if we wait five minutes,
La Llorona will show up.
Go straight to your rooms. Now.
I bet those two won't finish out the year.
[Anita] Mm-mm.
By the way,
what are you doing here so late?
The same as you.
Keeping the school in order.
The only one who keeps order here is me.
UNKNOWN
ANYONE? ANSWER ME.
I FOLLOWED YOUR INSTRUCTIONS.
WHAT'S NEXT? ANSWER. HELLO?

No, that won't work.
She'll be extra careful.
She'll even stop screwing Sebas,
just to be safe,
which she should've done eons ago.
Do you have a better idea?
Do any of you have a better idea?
You don't need to be like that.
Sorry. I'm trying to fix this and it seems
like you guys don't give a fuck.
No, you're trying to prove
Esteban's innocence, which doesn't
Because Esteban is innocent.
[scoffs]
Well, he uploaded the video.
And I don't get it either.
But all we know is he's gone,
he's not answering anyone,
and he left us with this goddamn mess.
Maybe it was you.
[dramatic sting]
- [chuckles]
- Come on, Jana.
- What?
- I'm serious, maybe Emilia swayed you.
Wouldn't be the first time you lied.
Wow.
You're fucking crazy.
Luka was right.
We're not friends.
We're just pretending.

THE LODGE MADE ME FORCE ESTEBAN
TO SWITCH THE VIDEO
[haunting, emotional music playing]
MESSAGE TO JANA
I
I MADE ESTEBAN DO I
[sighs heavily]
[phone chimes]
6 A.M. BE ON TIME.
[haunting music fades to silence]
What's wrong?
[Jana] You and Esteban
are hiding something.
I saw you.
[sighs] Esteban isn't what he seems.
That's all I'll say.
Stop trusting people so much.
Not everyone is what they seem.
[somber music playing]
[Esteban] Hi, can I talk to you?
[woman] I'm on my way out. Excuse me.
Wait, wait.
I'm your son.
You're confusing me with someone else.
Your real name is Rocío García.
[melodic piano music playing]
- I wrote that for you when I was five.
- [piano music stops]
No, actually
I wrote it for you.
[piano music resumes]
[piano notes fade to silence]
But I never finished it.
I guess you were meant to do it.
You had years to look for me,
if you were interested.
Did you want me to show up
out of the blue?
Like I just did?
What do you want to know?
[Esteban] I have this
I want to know why Marcelo Colucci
told you to stay away.
Why did he offer you money?
You can tell me, or I can ask him.
Your call.
[tense music rising]
Marcelo is your father.
["Lo Jodiste" by Babi playing]
POSTS
JANA POP OFFICIAL
[line ringing]
- [Jana's mother] Jani.
- Mom?
Marcelo was only a fling.
Or at least I thought.
I was already married to Chava.
I didn't tell him anything.
Or Marcelo.
I needed a job.
So I went to Marcelo,
and he offered to hire me
as Luka's music teacher.
[laughs]
It was a shock.
Seeing all that his son
had made me think of you.
I thought of the life you could've had
that I couldn't give you.
That was when I told Marcelo
the truth.
I regretted it as soon as I told him.
Because I understood,
despite everything,
I didn't want you to suffer
the way Luka did.
What the fuck does that have to do
with you abandoning me?
[somber music playing]
You wouldn't understand.
- [Chava] What's going on here?
- [Esteban] Why not?
- Why did you leave me?
- What did you tell him?
What happened? What did she say?
[Esteban sobbing]
[Chava] It's okay.
[Luka] Am I winning
the Battle of the Bands or not?
[masked student, with distorted voice]
Patience is a virtue.
The fortune cookie advice is boring me.
Let's be clear.
[masked student]
Remember who you're dealing with.
Remember how powerful we are.
So,
what happens now?
[masked student] Do you trust us?
[Luka sighs]
[intriguing music playing]
I hate this thing.
You know, I didn't see that coming.
I mean, I know all of these guys.
They all have golf club memberships,
but what kind of membership do you have?
A loyalty rewards card?
Idiot.
Welcome to The Lodge.
Do you want to win, Luka?
You have to win,
and we're your only shot, Luka.
[Esteban] You knew, didn't you?
Yes.
I'm guessing you're angry.
There are only two things
that need to happen right now.
First,
you need to know
you're my son, and I love you.
[gentle music playing]
And nothing will ever change that.
Ever.
And the second thing?
[sighs]
I need to know where we're going.
[emotional piano music playing]
I walk♪
I'll follow you♪
Until I find myself♪
I give you my wings♪
I'll always shine on you♪
What do you feel, my heart? ♪
Are you tired of hurting?♪
Of being lied to?♪
Dark shadows♪
Hiding the truth♪
My voice is my own♪
It can't be controlled♪
And I promise my heart will withstand♪
I'll hold on because I need to wake up♪
I don't forget the past♪

[song continues]
[birds chirping]
[song fades to silence]
Thank you.
Sweetie.
Don't look so sad, Janucha.
In the end,
we always knew this school wasn't for you.
Hmm? Let's go.
