[crickets chirping]
DOCTOR BELDA GUZMÁN
GENERAL MEDICINE
[gasping]
[Dr. Belda] Uh-huh.
Yes.
Yes, I understand.
There was no other option, was there?
Of course.
Yeah, yeah. Don't you worry about a thing.
Uh-huh.
Yes.
The best thing to do
was to get her to the hospital.
Thanks for letting me know.
I'm the one he chose!
[squeaking and hissing]
[buzzing]
[Pablo] This is the door to the kingdom.
Only a perfect one can open it.
It requires the blood
of a human sacrifice,
and lifting the fifth veil…
[stone scraping]
[Pablo] Invoking the Solitary King.
-[air hissing]
-[Guillén] Fucking great.
[Pablo] There are some seams
with smoldering coals.
The gases they emit are like poison.
[Cuéllar hyperventilating]
[man] Cuéllar. Cuéllar, take it easy.
-[wheezing]
-Put your mask on.
Listen to me. Put your mask on.
-I can't breathe!
-You're wearing an oxygen tank.
If you put the mask on, you can breathe.
-[gasping]
-Cuéllar.
-Cuéllar.
-[continues gasping]
Iruña, keep an eye on Pablo.
Come on, let's go. Let's go, let's go.
-[Guillén] Cuéllar.
-[Cuéllar gasping]
[Guillén] Just calm the fuck down.
Cuéllar.
-Cuéllar!
-[choking]
Are you all right?
-My head's gonna explode!
-Calm down, Cuéllar.
Are we all here?
Don't let anyone stay inside!
-[whimpers]
-[high-pitched squealing sounds]
Somebody please stop this noise!
Somebody stop it!
[loud screeching]
[screeching intensifies]
[bird calls echoing]
[church bell ringing]
[Sofía sighs]
[breathing shakily]
[sighs]
I'm sorry.
Really. For not believing you.
It's okay.
You've always been there.
In the end, I was wrong too.
[sighs]
But that thing we saw,
it's gone, it won't come back?
If not Dekta, there are others.
Umma,
Khiaram,
Brantas…
Any of the powers
that command the kingdom. [gasps]
It's too late now, Eva.
They're gonna take me to the temple.
There must be a way to stop them.
[Sofía sighs]
Why didn't you do it?
Why didn't you stab me?
Because I love you.
They won't be able to beat us.
Mom told me from the beginning.
"Go away, Sofía."
The first time I saw her was
the night of San Juan.
Where'd you see her?
It was on the way to the kingdom,
but I didn't know it yet.
Then the others appeared.
Samuel,
Blanca.
They were telling me
that the kingdom was the only reality.
and that I had to open
the door in order to be with her.
And, Eva, there was Mom.
[sobs]
[sighs] Dekta's been inside me all along.
It brings nothing but pain.
It's like a fire.
It burns.
I would look at you, and that burning
fire made me hate you with all my might.
He was using you, Sofía.
[Sofía gasps]
[sniffles] There's no better place.
Mom is trapped in hell.
And there's nothing I can do to help her.
If Dad told us the truth,
she's the one who decided.
She threw herself in there for us.
So that we'd be okay.
So we owe our lives to her, okay?
-We have to be all right.
-Mm.
-Together.
-Mm.
[sobs]
-We're two peas in a pod.
-[laughs]
Here. Relax.
[Estrella] "Men think that the kingdom
has come to sow peace in the world."
"But they do not know that it has come
to sow division on Earth."
"Fire, sword, and war."
[breathing shakily]
[bed clanks]
Why am I strapped down?
We don't want you to hurt yourself again.
[gasping]
How are you feeling?
It's not in me.
There's nothing in you. Blanca.
Who told you you had it?
Was it Samuel?
He's in custody, like the others.
They can't hurt you anymore.
I… I wanted to have Dekta.
Very few can be the vessel,
and he chose me.
And I thought
it would end my pain, you know?
I thought it would
make me forget who I am.
And all that I've lost.
Where are you from?
I should've stayed with my daughter,
and I let her die alone.
[gasping]
I let her die alone.
-I let her die alone--
-Calm down. Blanca.
-I left her alone--
-Calm down.
-Calm down.
-I left her alone.
-Everything will be all right.
-I left her alone.
-I'm going to call the doctor.
-I left her alone.
[hyperventilating]
I left her alone.
-I left her alone!
-[thumping]
[gasping]
[breathing slows]
[crackling sounds]
[squeaking]
[creaking]
[chittering and hissing]
Twenty years ago, we thought
we were done with the cult.
I blew up the mine galleries.
But they came back.
They must've been working
for a long time to reopen the tunnel.
Elena had been getting letters for years.
There were still believers.
They threatened our daughters.
And running away wasn't an option.
You can laugh at me if you want.
But the power the kingdom possesses
would have found us anyway.
Elena knew that if she performed
the rite, the gates would open.
Everything on the other side
would come to this side.
That's why she crossed the altar.
She killed herself.
She was the key.
And if she wasn't there,
no one could open the door.
But she was wrong.
Sofía is like her mother.
She's a perfect one.
[echoing] Cuéllar?
What are you doing without a mask?
Come on, man. You better come out.
Cuéllar? Can you hear me?
Hey! Hey, what are you doing?
No, no! No, no!
Don't! No!
-Fuck! Stand up. Right now!
-[Cuéllar grunts]
Come on. Get up! That's it. Yeah. Come on.
Give me my gun!
I have to give it my blood.
-Calm down.
-I have to give it my blood!
[chittering]
[crashing]
[loud thumping]
[deep growling]
[roaring]
[snarling]
[hissing]
[deep growling]
[shrieking]
[gasping]
Sofía, what's wrong? What's wrong?
Sofía, it's me. What's wrong with you?
He's coming for me! He's coming for me.
The blood has opened the door.
-[whimpering]
-It was a nightmare.
-[crying] No!
-Calm down.
-No!
-Calm down.
To the left of the hospital entrance
is the laundry loading area.
Not hard to enter.
Okay, when?
[squeaking]
He will tell us.
What if there's nothing?
Goran wrote me a message
telling me to run.
I don't know what he could see, but…
what if it's better
if those doors stay closed?
There is no greater crime
than for him who's had knowledge
to despise it.
You're gonna be a traitor.
[crowd cheering]
[man] Lieutenant, the results of the tests
they did when you came out of the mine.
Where are my results?
Hey, can someone turn off that radio?
[man] Apágala, apaga la radio.
-Going back to the temple?
-No. To the hospital.
I'll try to get something out of Blanca.
Estrella spoke to her. She's lost her way.
She says if Sofía opens the doors,
it'll be the end of the world.
And she believes it. Like Pablo.
-You have a call from the hospital.
-What do they want?
They said it's personal.
I'll put it through to your office.
[ringing]
-Yes?
-Hello. Good morning. This is Dr. Alba.
We have the results of the tests that
were done when you came out of the mine.
In the rest of the agents,
there's no alarming data, but…
but in your case, well,
there are some values
I would like to talk to you about
in person.
It wasn't what we were looking for,
but it would be best
if you came to the hospital.
Lieutenant?
Lieutenant, are you still there?
[Estrella] Where are they?
In the bathroom.
Sofía had a nightmare
and needed to clear her head.
[Juanjo] You were right
when you told me to tell you the truth.
I've tried everything but that.
The truth, I mean.
-[sighs]
-Where was I adopted?
I met a priest in Madrid.
We paid 300,000 pesetas, and he…
Candela spent a few months out of town,
and came back with you.
[sighs]
And why did it take you
so long to tell me?
Uh…
When your mother was young,
she joined that Cult of Light
you've heard of.
I also attended a few ceremonies.
It was a religious group.
It didn't differ much
from what the priest said at Mass.
Was Mom still into the cult?
In a ceremony…
[sighs]
It's hard for me to tell you this
because… [sighs]
…I don't know what was true,
or what was a vision.
There was something
that was not of this world.
It got inside Candela,
and when the doctor saw her,
he told us that she lost her uterus.
I'm not lying to you.
Trust me.
Uh, I know.
We were alongside the devil.
That devil is back.
You have to stay away from Eva.
Her family was there at the beginning,
and they're still there now.
No. Talk to Sofía.
Tell her everything you know.
-Please do it.
-[sighs]
She has to listen.
[crackling]
[squeaking]
When are you gonna quit smoking?
Do you really think
that this is the best time?
It's either a smoke or a pill.
You tell me what's better.
[door opens]
-Fuck, Mar.
-[door closes]
-You gave me a heart attack.
-I'm sorry.
My dad's in the hospital.
Maybe he can help you.
I don't know how.
-I'd rather not see him, Mar.
-Eva, listen to him, please.
It won't be long.
What are you doing?
Wait outside.
A while ago,
before your mother was in the cult,
there was your grandfather, Valentín.
He was the one
who discovered the temple of the mine.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
Lozano, you can't be here.
I've been to that temple.
The black altar is like a door.
But it has a lock
that can't be opened by just anyone.
Not even Valentín could.
It has to be a woman.
A perfect one.
Like my mother.
Like you, Sofía.
And this is the only way
to keep it closed.
-[gasps]
-Dad, what are you doing? No!
This is not what I want.
-But it is what God wants for me.
-Dad, no!
[whimpering]
[Eva] No!
Don't do it. I'm begging you.
-She's just a girl.
-[Juanjo] I'm sorry.
But you are the key.
[yells]
[Mar] No, no!
-[screams] Let him go! Raúl, please!
-[thudding]
No!
[girls sobbing]
-[crunch]
-[Mar] No, no!
No, no, no!
-[crunching]
-[Eva gasping]
[Mar screams] No!
[thump]
-[thump]
-No!
[Mar sobbing]
Dad! Dad!
[Raúl panting]
[high-pitched squealing]
[screaming]
-[gasping]
-[Mar] What have you done?
Why won't the noise stop?
-[screeching]
-[panting]
Why won't it stop?
[radio bleeps]
[radio chatter in Spanish]
[Guillén] No one questions him
until I arrive tomorrow.
[officer] Affirmative, Lieutenant.
Come on, kid. Watch your head.
In the back.
[engine starts]
[siren wailing]
A guard will stand at the door
of your room to keep people out.
-Where's Mar?
-With Estrella.
She had to fill out some papers,
but she's in good hands.
You can see her later.
How are you?
Tired.
We all are.
What you're going through is…
Sometimes, I think it's
like when you're little
and you have one of those high fevers.
Over 100 degrees.
I'm sure you've had one, right?
You don't know what's true and what's not.
Your whole body hurts, and you think
it's gonna be like that forever.
But it's not.
No, the fever ends one day,
and things go back to the way they were.
Life wins.
-What if I don't want life to win?
-[tuts]
Don't talk like that. Please, Sofía.
My mother is dead.
Chisco is in a coma.
And my dad's in jail.
Today, it was Lozano.
But tomorrow,
someone else will come for me.
[gasps] Because it seems
like everything is my fault.
-[sniffles]
-[Guillén sighs]
But why would it be your fault?
You've lost a lot of things.
It's too much for your young age.
But look beside you.
Look at your sister and tell me
she's not worth fighting for anymore.
-I don't know if I have any strength left.
-Well, of course you have.
Sofía…
-[Sofía sobs]
-…I've never met anyone stronger than you.
Why don't you come to my office?
Let's talk more calmly about the results.
-I--
-Which room is Blanca in?
I'd like to know if she's woken up yet.
[officer] They've brought you dinner.
Please don't call the guards.
Please listen to me first.
Please listen to me.
-Fuck that.
-[Halid] Please.
[Sofía] Eva!
Wait.
[sighs]
He wants me to take you
to the temple to end the path.
Belda. The doctor.
-[Eva] Belda?
-He's been in the cult from the beginning.
We gotta tell the lieutenant.
And what can he do?
Arresting him is useless.
[gasps]
Sofía.
Why did you say sorry to me in the temple?
So my brother is dead, isn't he?
No one crossed that door.
It was for the best.
On the other side, there is only hell.
[Cuéllar] Séller.
Have a good night.
Where's Blanca?
What?
-I said, where's Blanca?
-I swear, I haven't moved from here.
-Not once.
-Where's the patient from this room?
Holy shit.
Blanca!
No! Freeze!
[gasping]
Get out of the way!
Stop!
Fuck!
Fucking stop already!
[panting]
[grunts]
[grunts]
[yells]
-Don't touch me!
-Blanca, I don't wanna hurt you.
-Blanca!
-[gasping]
Blanca!
-Stay still, damn it!
-[gasps]
We're going back to the hospital.
I'm going to cuff you.
Are you gonna behave yourself?
[groans]
Hey, okay. Calm down.
[slithering]
[screeches]
[screeches]
[screaming]
[Blanca] Hold me.
Please hold me.
Don't let him come back. Please. [sighs]
What the fuck was that?
[breathing shakily]
You're dying. Dekta can't touch you.
Don't let go of me.
I'm here. Take it easy. Hey, take it easy.
[both breathing shakily]

[door squeals]
[slam echoes]
[sighs]
I should be satisfied, you know, Pablo?
After so many shots in the dark,
I understand.
I know what you did in the mine.
And I know why Sandra killed Ezcaray.
[sighs]
However, I think I'd rather not know.
And what's your explanation?
Same as yours.
[laughs]
Those demons exist.
And…
how'd you convince yourself?
I was tested after going down
to the temple, like everyone else.
Um, uh…
It has nothing to do with this, but…
I've been diagnosed with leukemia.
I'm dying.
I'm sorry.
Dekta, or whatever the fuck his name his,
he can't come near me
because I'm dying.
I'm like some kind of poison to him.
[laughs]
I don't know what happened to him,
but I think he's dead, he's finished.
It never ends, Guillén.
Don't you understand?
When Dekta is gone,
others will follow.
And they will be worse.
His power is infinite.
Let me see Sofía.
[thumping]
[snarling]
[roaring]
[sobbing]
He was my father. I loved him.
Of course you loved him.
And your mother too.
I won't even be able to go home.
How am I gonna face
all the memories there?
From now on,
all you will have are those memories.
[whimpers]
Maybe my mother will get better.
No, Mar.
Candela is not going to recover.
And that connection you have with Eva
won't last either.
You're just an orphan.
And as of now, no one cares about you.
What do you mean by that?
[weeping]
[gasps]
[gasping]
[echoing] Hello?
[whimpering]
[gasps]
[sobbing] No, no, no, no, no, no…
[crying]
[screams] Eva!
Did you hear Mar?
I didn't hear anything.
Dad.
[sobbing]
-They released you.
-Yeah.
Guillén brought me here.
Where's your sister?
In the room.
There should be a guard here.
I don't know why he's not.
Well, listen.
We need to talk.
A million things have happened.
I saw it.
-That thing was inside Sofía.
-Will you shut the fuck up?
You are the shame of this family.
Your mother and sister are perfect.
But you? What are you?
Huh? What?
A squeaky fucking voice
that won't stop nagging.
But, Da--
[yelping]
[whimpering]
[distorted cries]
He's here. There's something near.
[Sofía gasping]
Umma.
[distorted growling]
I don't know how I know his name.
[rumbling]
[Sofía sighs]
I can't keep running away.
[gasping]
[thumping]
[snorting]
[sniffing]
[grunting]
[snorting]
[squeaking]
-Kill me, Halid.
-[growling]
Do it, Halid! Please! Come on.
Don't let them take me to the temple.
[huffing and growling]
If you don't, I will.
[snorting]
[gasps]
[woman] ¿Estás bien?
¿Te ayudo a levantarte?
-Anda, ven. Agárrate, que yo te ayudo.
-[man] Eh, señorita, ¿se encuentra bien?
¿Se ha desmayado? ¿Sí?
¿Seguro que se encuentra bien?
-Mar, are you okay?
-I don't know what happened.
Sofía!
[gasping]
-What happened?
-My sister's gone.
-What?
-My father turned up at the hospital.
What are you talking about?
Pablo's in a cell at the station.
Halid. Halid took my sister.
He must have taken her to the mine.
Get in. Now.
[car door opens]
[car door closes]
-[whimpers]
-[Dr. Belda] Hi, officers.
Why did you bring me here?
-What is happening?
-[Dr. Belda] They're from--
they're from the television.
They're here to take some pictures
and record…
-It won't take long.
-If I lift the veil, what happens?
[Dr. Belda] …journalists have a right to…
Hell is coming.
Do you have the strength to run?
Umma was in the hospital.
We couldn't do anything then,
but we can now.
He's not here.
Do you have the strength to run or not?
[gunshots]
-[gasps]
-I'll take care of Belda. Come on.
Come on!
Belda! Belda, please, listen.
Please, it's all right.
-[Dr. Belda] Running away is useless.
-Please, just listen to me!
The kingdom is here.
[snorting]
[gasping]
[snarling]
Stay where you are.
Halid.
He took Sofía to the temple.
I-- I swear I didn't want to.
He took Sofía to the temple.
He took Sofía…
Sofía…
[car door closes]
Stay with him. Put pressure
on the wound to slow the bleeding.
Where's Sofía?
[gasping]
[Mar] Eva! Eva! Eva, stay here!
[Dr. Belda] Don't give up, Sofía.
The end of the road is here.
Umma will protect us.

[Eva] Sofía!
[panting]
Eva? No, I told you to stay outside.
-It caved in. We can't get through.
-Where's Sofía?
-On the other side. We have to get out.
-What?
-No, no, no! Let me go!

-No! No!
-We have to get out, all right?
No, no! [crying]
Okay. That's it. That's it, Eva.
-No! No, please!
-It's okay. Calm down, it's okay.
-Help me!
-Shh, shh.
-It's okay, Eva.

Eva, calm down. Calm down.
No, no, no! Don't leave me!

I love you.
Don't leave me.

I don't know what
the kingdom will bring us,

We'll be together.
I need to hug my daughter.

Come.
