Selenkay (2024) s01e08 Episode Script

1
I'm Patrick. And your name?
Aurora.
Aurora.
PREVIOUSLY
Mind if I call you that?
What happened?
The Fénix boys. They attacked him.
- Why are we looking for Aurora?
- It is our mission.
He doesn't have to find her.
She has to be far away from Río Vivo.
He doesn't have to find out.
- We know your family is not real.
-They are like us.
Your family hides something.
We were here 15 years ago.
I'm not leaving
until you tell me the truth!
You're leaving,
whether you like it or not!
They are the ones
you should not trust.
We need to know
from whom we are protecting Sofía.
From her uncle.
You said you were going to introduce me
to the person who
Fire summons fire.
Tourist or traveler?
Is there a difference?
If you're a true traveler, there is.
I come from Río Vivo. Not far.
- Ah, neighboring town. Hmm.
- Yeah.
So just out for a walk,
or running away from school?
Uh Well, don't worry.
Your secret is safe with me.
Thank you.
20 HOURS BEFORE
Stop! Stop! Gael. Gael!
Fire summons fire.
Stop it now!
She's not Aurora! She isn't the one!
So, who are you then?
Let's go, Sofía!
I need to know the truth.
I can't go on like this.
I always thought I was the different one.
I mean, I always thought
my family was weird,
but this is a whole new level.
And the Fénixes perform rituals,
and control fire.
What's going on, Navera?
Who is this woman you talked about?
Do you remember when I told you
that I once knew someone like you?
This woman was simply extraordinary,
connected to everything that surrounds us.
Though very few people
were even able to see it.
-Why?
-Many look
but few see, Sofía.
The moment I first met her
it was like we were friends,
almost immediately.
How did you discover she had
a relationship with water like me?
We had many long talks.
She confided a lot of things in me.
That was just one, among many.
So then this woman
she's Aurora, right?
Yes.
And she's your mother, Sofía.
So you're saying,
Aurora is never coming back?
Where is she?
She's just no longer here.
I'm so sorry, Sofía.
And
my father, he never even knew
she was pregnant?
No. He continued his travels
knowing nothing.
Why didn't she tell him?
What if he would have wanted
to stay with me.
She also wanted to stay with you.
But it was impossible.
She couldn't tell Patrick anything
without endangering him.
And you as well.
Patrick
he was human.
He had no abilities to protect you with.
Unlike my current family.
I I always believed they were weird,
but I didn't have
others around to compare.
- Never imagined
- They're not normal humans.
They were created by Aurora
to take care of you.
She collected all the best of nature
and gave it human form.
The Fénixes. Are they also like them?
I think so.
There's no easy way
to understand these things.
There are more beings like this
living among the humans.
Your family has a specific mission,
to protect you from harm.
What do the Fénixes
have to do with all this?
I need you to tell me the truth, Navera.
There are two forces,
they command everything.
What you see
everything that surrounds us
was born of fire
and water.
Feeling better?
Thanks for your pity.
What's your deal with her?
Aurora, Sofía, whoever?
Nothing.
Exactly. "Nothing" is what you did
to contain her. You let her escape.
Because she's not Aurora.
We're supposed to believe
some lady we don't know?
I can feel it myself, Rafael.
Are you doubting me?
I'm the one that brought her here,
and the one that found her.
You always seem to defend her.
You're conflicted.
Really?
Aren't you the one that kissed Emilia?
If this thing has gone off track,
if things have gone wrong,
it's your fault!
How's that?
I told you
things had to be done differently.
But from the beginning you insisted
you had to be in charge of this mission.
That's enough!
Your mother, Aurora,
mastered the energy of water.
And the other force is fire.
Together, they have the power
to create or destroy.
But their powers are diminished
when in isolation.
Your mom was a being of great power.
So Aurora was like
She was like a goddess.
- I'm the daughter of a goddess?
- And a human.
You're part of both worlds.
You are unique, Sofía.
And you have a very strong,
special energy.
If you can learn to control it
you could do great things.
The Fénixes are not trustworthy beings.
They're up to no good.
Please listen to Iris and Pedro.
Right now, you must leave Río Vivo.
And the god of fire?
What do you know about him?
Not too much.
Just that he's dangerous.
He frightened your mother.
Everyone tells me something different.
My family, the Fénixes.
I hope you're telling me
the truth, Navera.
That I can trust you.
Trust I've told you
all you need to know for now, Sofía.
You two need to stop!
We need to stay united for the mission.
Then explain this to Gael.
Sofía has power over water,
or she couldn't have hurt me
like that the way she did.
Or are you blind to that?
I've seen her before.
That woman who barged in.
She was in the bar the other day.
We talked for a little bit.
She was strange.
She lives outside of town.
We have to find her.
Sofía will be with her.
Aurora, she cried a lot
the day she had to leave you.
This is the spot
where her tears fell
and pierced through stone.
Aurora.
Although there's much
I don't understand,
thank you, Mother,
for what you did for me.
And just as you had
to make your decisions,
the time has come for me to make my own.
To choose my own path
now that I know who I am.
- What are you doing?
-I should ask you the same thing.
You haven't been coming around to the bar.
Ever since you let Lupo snoop around
where you know he doesn't belong.
I was ill and stayed at home.
Roberto will tell you.
No problem. But now you're gonna
answer a few questions.
Do you know the woman
who lives up in the hills?
- Nave No, I don't know her.
- Nice try.
- Why's she your business?
- I ask the questions.
- Rafael.
-You have something to add?
- He's afraid of you.
- You know nothing!
I know plenty. I've seen things.
- And I'm going to tell everybody!
-Who would believe you?
Everyone thinks you're crazy.
Look at you talking to a dog
that doesn't exist.
Don't mess with him,
he did nothing to you.
I'll make sure everyone knows
about your rituals, your cult.
I know what you're about!
And I'm telling all of Río Vivo!
- We can't be exposed.
-No. I didn't
Rafael! Rafael, no! Rafael!
What did you do?
- You didn't have to use your power!
- You heard him yourself.
He was gonna put our mission in jeopardy.
Now let's go find that woman. Let's go!
I'll do it alone.
Sofía would never trust you. Go on.
I said leave!
I need an ambulance.
Please hurry, it's urgent.
Intersection of Amancay and Lupinos.
Just relax. Don't worry,
I called an ambulance. Stay calm.
Walk away.
You're not like the other two.
Just leave them.
Walk away. Walk
Lucio.
Lucio.
Lucio!
Well?
Getting anything?
- I have a signal.
- Really? Great.
What if she doesn't want to talk to us?
Hmm? Maybe we should wait longer.
Why wouldn't she want to?
We did nothing wrong.
- Now she knows we're not her parents.
- Yes, we are.
That's what Aurora created us for.
She created us to protect her,
nothing else.
Isn't that what parents do?
You're lying to me
just like you always have.
I don't believe you.
- Sofía, just help us pack up, it's urgent.
- I beg you don't do this right now, Sofía!
I'm not leaving
until you tell me the truth!
You're leaving whether you like it or not!
MOM
You.
I just need you to hear me out.
No.
I know what you are. You're a tracker.
I'm much more than that, Sofía.
I know
you're just looking for Aurora.
You're wrong if you think
I would ever trust you again.
You used me, Gael.
- Please, Sofía.
- No, stay back!
Sofía!
Sofía!
Sofía!
So where's Sofía? Hmm?
-Look. Hmm.
-All right.
How do I look?
Ah, well. You look like a real fugitive
of the law, in my opinion.
- Then my look is complete.
- Look.
This is for you.
For the keys to our future house.
It's
Thanks. It's exactly what I needed.
This is the place I talked about.
I like it.
We'll be fine here.
I'll light the stove.
I'll clear an area for our sleeping bags.
I can't believe we're doing this.
My brothers are coming for you.
I bought you some time by lying to Rafael,
but I don't want to leave
without saying goodbye.
Goodbye?
- Where are you going?
-I don't know. Anywhere.
I just have to get out of here.
Where my brothers can't find me.
Without me,
they probably can't summon him.
Him?
That ritual you were doing.
You were summoning the god of fire?
He's your creator.
I shouldn't say anything else about it.
Sofía, I need to get going
before they realize.
So you're afraid of them now?
You didn't seem worried when you
tricked me into going to see them.
- You're a liar.
- Rafael did something
terrible. I no longer trust him.
And if I don't leave,
I'm afraid he'll end up hurting you.
Answer this before you leave.
What do they want with me?
- Our mission is to find Aurora.
- But I'm not Aurora!
I know that! But Rafael is obsessive.
And he thinks
you could be the key to the mission.
I wanted to tell you who he was,
but I couldn't do it.
Believe me, I wish I could have.
It's what I wanted the most.
Us to know each other.
For you to really know me.
But time's up.
I'm glad I met you, Sofía.
Whoa! That's nice! May I?
Gael.
I'm coming.
Why'd you trust me?
I just learned to observe my surroundings.
And follow my instincts.
I knew you were telling the truth.
Why are you staring?
Well, can I say this
without upsetting you?
Sure, yeah, what?
It's just Well, you look
different without your hood up.
You thought that was going to offend me?
Does it look that bad? Seriously?
- Uh
- Uh?
I love your laugh.
I've never seen you smile like this.
I didn't even know I could feel this way.
I didn't even know I could feel anything.
But ever since
that first moment when we met
I haven't been the same.
Same with me.
Though you didn't
seem to like me at first.
- Oh.
- Like after we danced.
I'm sorry. I was confused
and didn't know how to act.
Can't explain where my head was at.
However, there is a way we could fix it.
By recreating that moment.
- Here?
- Why not?
Think this is a bad idea?
Don't know.
Gael's gone. He betrayed us.
What about that woman, Navera,
maybe she did something to him.
Sofía disappeared as well.
Gael betrayed us.
- Abandoned you and me and our mission.
-Hello!
Anybody there?
-Hello.
- Hello.
Is Rafael here?
Yeah. Come on.
- Am I interrupting?
- Not at all. I was waiting for you.
I'll leave you two.
You know anything?
I'm worried about Gael.
We've been looking all over town,
and we can't find him.
Don't worry. I have contacts, I told you.
Can they help me?
Of course. But
I think I should thank them, somehow.
Sure, whatever they want.
As long as we're able to find my brother.
Uh, I'm sorry. Uh, it's the only way
I knew how to get it lit.
You don't need to apologize
for who you are.
- I like the real you.
- I like the real you as well.
- What is it?
- Diana.
She says everyone's looking for us.
What are we going to do?
Take it easy! Relax.
It's nothing to panic about. Huh?
We knew they were going to come looking.
Let's sit down.
- We'll just keep moving.
- Always?
We should head north.
I've heard the mountains are gorgeous.
We change our names,
and we'll both go out and find a job.
I could be a waitress. Is
I don't know if it's something I could do.
Sure you can. You're so smart
you'll figure it out really quick.
Maybe we could work
in the same restaurant.
You'll be a waitress and I'll bartend,
I do have some experience.
And we could have lunch there
every single day.
- And we'll still be students, part-time.
- I'll study marine biology.
I'll be chef.
I'm good at cooking with fire already.
How hard could it really be?
It's Diana.
She's on her way and bringing us food.
You have a good friend.
I'll go get some wood, it's getting cold.
- I've never done this before.
- Just relax. Concentrate.
Just focus on sharpening
your senses even more.
Trust me. Let's start with what's nearby.
I'm sensing the tree tops swaying.
Wind blows from the east.
Follow it.
Water.
The currents of a stream
rolling over smooth rocks.
- Continue.
- There's a waterfall, a small one.
From there, the water continues its course
toward the lake.
Fresh dew-covered wildflowers.
Continue.
Wind
gusting.
It rocks rusty sheet metal
against a window.
Fire.
Its smoke drifting through the light.
Sofía.
Don't you dare try anything.
Over here.
Can't find him anywhere, he's not here.
Where's Gael?
Sofía.
Where can we find Gael?
What are we going to do?
- I lost the trail.
- Just our luck.
Can't you concentrate more,
try to get it back?
I am concentrating.
I'm not getting anything.
Let's try fanning out.
Right? We're out of options.
If we split up,
we'll cover more ground. Hmm?
- Yeah.
- Let's find her. Let's go.
So, your brother's been gone
for quite a while.
I hope nothing happened to him.
Rafael knows what he's doing.
He's powerful.
Sure, but the whole town's out
looking for both of us.
What if he had a run-in
with the neighbors or my family?
Or the police.
All alone. He's just one person,
no matter how powerful he is.
Oh, the neighbors! Oh, no, your family!
Not the police!
No, not the police!
Careful.
You could hurt your wrist
if you try too hard.
Dad! Dad! What happened?
Come on. Get up. Easy.
What happened?
- Good. Are you all right?
- Yeah. Don't worry about me.
- Go. Go find Sofía.
- But
- First we have to go get you checked
- Go find Sofía!
- I can't leav
- The Fénixes are very dangerous.
Go help her. She needs you more right now.
Don't worry about me.
Go on! Go on!
Sofía! Sofía!
Flox, look out!
- Momma! Momma! Momma! Are you all right?
- I'm all right. All right.
Sofía, we have to get Sofía.
I can't get out.
- Why are you here, you can't leave them!
- Rafael. I need your help.
Yeah. Don't worry,
I just need to catch my breath.
-Sofía!
- It's my momma!
Diana, we have to get
out of here right away!
Yeah, but how?
Gael!
- Please, help me get this undone.
- Are you okay?
You have to leave.
They're close, I saw them in the forest.
No, I can't, my family's in danger, Gael.
- Take Diana.
- I'm not leaving you alone with them.
Gael, you said
they're weakened without you.
- Go with her.
- I'm not leaving you, Sofía!
But it's the only option.
Diana can't defend herself
against the power of your brothers.
Please, Gael, we're out of time.
Leave with her.
Please hurry.
All right.
But there's something you don't know.
You have a potent power over us, Sofía.
Water hurts us.
- Yeah, I saw what it did to Rafael.
- It's much more powerful than you know.
Water is able to kill us.
Okay. Um Well, you have to go
before they get back!
Go on, go on, go!
Come on. Faster.
Stop it!
Leave my family alone!
Father.
Daddy.
No.
No. Dad, please.
- Pedro. Pedro.
- Dad! Dad! Are you okay?
Oh, Pedro. You're alive.
Everyone
Oh, my sweeties.
Oh. You're all right.
We're all right.
Oh, Dad. There. I'm sorry.
-Sofía, come and eat!
-I'm coming!
- Flox, will you get the bread basket?
-Sure.
-Yeah, looks good.
-Are you going to eat all that?
Okay now, where did
someone leave the potholders?
Wait, don't touch that, it's hot.
-It smells so good. I can't wait.
-Watch out! Careful, it's hot.
- No, don't touch it.
-All right, careful there.
Oh, look at this. Smells good, doesn't it?
Huh? What did I tell you guys?
Sofía, before it's cold.
- I got it.
- You good?
How much you want, hm?
Love you guys.
- Here, join in.
- Hey!
- Easy, easy, careful, careful.
- Sorry.
- It still hurts.
- Enough sentimentality,
I'm ready to eat already.
- Wow.
- I almost forgot about it.
All right, I'm starving too.
-What's this, Dad?
- I picked up the mail. One's for you.
Yeah?
- Who wants some?
-Salad.
-Me!
-Thank you.
- Ah Yes. Oh, better let it cool down.
-Need water?
Who's next?
All right,
this piece will be for Mom.
6 MONTHS LATER
Earth to Sofía?
I know exactly what you need
to get out of this melancholy
- you've been wearing for months.
- Melancholy, who?
There's no way I'm going to let you
try our new hair dye on me, Diana.
Just saying it would look great on you.
For your phenotype.
The last time I let you experiment on me,
I ended up with carrot-colored hair.
- Yes, but science is about trial and what?
- Error.
That's it.
Once upon a time,
there was a 16-year-old girl
who dreamed of having a normal life.
But along the way, she realized
that would be a little too boring.
She was unique and special.
Like her friend Diana,
with her connection to science.
Or her sister Flox, with her drawings.
And her family
I love this gift. Thank you so much.
Yes, it's a bit weirder
than she once thought,
but through it all,
they're still her family.
Sofía. Long time no see.
Sorry, Navera.
I've been meaning to come visit.
I have so much homework.
It's time for final exams at school.
Don't worry about it.
You don't need to apologize.
- Well, enjoy, then.
-Love you.
Oh, Sofía.
Worried about me walking alone? May I go?
- Yes. Yeah, it was nothing.
- Sure, yeah.
See ya.
This time, staying in Río Vivo
seems like the right decision.
Yeah.
Though I can't deny that
it does make me nervous.
Sure, those guys are gone now, but
I'm afraid something else
is going to happen.
Sofía's better prepared.
We can face whatever comes.
And besides,
she deserves her freedom. Hmm?
Gael? Gael?
Gael!
Gael!
Gael!
Hello, Sofía.
- Do you know me?
- No. But we make the time.
I'm Kiran
your uncle.
