THE POWER OF BEAUTY
"THIS STORY IS A WORK OF FICTION,
BASED ON
AND INSPIRED BY REAL-LIFE EVENTS."
Well, tell me what you know.
Alright.
When Kelly and her mom
came to the store,
I almost had to tape their mouths shut,
they were drooling so bad.
Yes, Hollman came to the store,
but he didn't dare come in.
No, that's not what happened.
[tense music]
[Edgar] We're here.
[Hollman] Stop here. Stop.
[Nayibe] Oh, thanks.
Please, go ahead.
[Nayibe] Sorry. Thank you.
[Edgar] Welcome, come in.
Oh, it's so pretty.
Go on, go ahead.
Wait here for me.
Good morning, man. How can I help you?
Hollman wanted to come inside,
but Elver didn't let him.
I came to look at some furniture.
Oh, I'm sorry, but today we are only open
for an exclusive event.
Exclusive clients.
What exclusive clients?
I just saw two people go in
They are exclusive clients.
No, they are not exclusive clients
Look, I don't know
how to make you understand
that today we're only serving
exclusive clients.
[snaps fingers]
[Hollman] Okay.
[Elver] Have a good day.
Goodbye.
[tense music]
[Juanita] Hollman made him leave,
but he went to hide
so he wouldn't lose their trace.
The guy waited outside
until Kelly left.
Look, wait, wait.
We should talk about what the Domínguezes
were doing in the meantime.
Now you're gonna tell me
how to tell my story?
My idea?
Look, Juanita, let me explain something.
I don't know what you're doing,
or why you want to tell my story,
but I risked a lot,
I won't lose because of you.
Capisce?
Let me explain something to you.
You need me
if you don't want Kelly
to come and kill you.
Capisce?
Besides,
I want to tell the story right.
I want to divulge
what happened to Kelly, Nayibe,
and, above all, what Nicolás did to you,
to me, to Berny, and everyone else.
What do you want?
To tell this story together.
And to tell it right.
You edit your book,
I'll authorize the publication
and everyone's happy.
Deal?
Deal.
[intriguing music]
While Edgar was trying to figure out
who Kelly and her mom really were,
the Domínguezes were looking for
the mansion that would make them famous.
[upbeat music]
[Shaio] We're stopping?
[Shaio] Tell me what this is!
[exclaims]
[Moni] How are you?
What is this, Moni?
No.
[laughs]
What's going on? How'd it go?
Good.
Hey.
I needed you to come see this.
It's crazy, right?
Can you imagine our sign out there?
Klass 95.
And this room's perfect for makeup,
wardrobe, everything, with all the light.
[Shaio] I love it.
It'll be legendary.
Moni, this is just spectacular.
Wow.
Are you guys thinking
of robbing a bank or?
[Moni laughs]
You don't even have your first deal
and you're already setting up.
[Shaio] Oh, no, look at this.
[Moni] Huh?
-No, this house is gorgeous.
-Yes.
But first we have to win
over the campaign, because then
We can do the casting here. Come.
The owner is one of the guys
who danced all night
with Paola at the release
and he's head over heels for her.
He told us we could try the house out
and if we liked it, he'd rent to us
without a guarantor or anything,
just our signature.
On the condition
that we invite him to everything.
He's invited, alright.
Well, what a hit.
We can do meetings here.
The office would be perfect here.
Okay then, now for what we came for.
Take out the pictures, please.
Let's pick out who we're going to call.
Some are gorgeous.
The thing is, the photos don't help.
[Óscar] She's pretty.
But you're right, look.
Who told her she looked sexy
dressed like that?
You should see how the girls
look when they come to my mom's house
and how they leave.
No, I don't think anyone is ugly,
just ill-advised.
Well
Let's do some photos and a video
that will blow our client away.
I hadn't considered that.
With what camera?
And what photographer?
Well, I was thinking Agustín.
Santi's friend.
That guy does well.
Hmm.
You know him, why don't you call him?
Me?
Let Laura call him,
she's been his platonic friend for years.
Well, that is true.
So then, he's your contact. Call him.
Yes? Great. Moni found the mansion.
Okay, and what do you think we should say?
That it's also a casting for him
to see how well he does?
Shaio, I swear,
he's the best photographer in Colombia.
He's not working for free.
Well, he might be
the best photographer in Colombia,
but he's never worked with Klass 95,
right?
Besides, aren't you always saying
you have to be unreachable?
-[Laura] Yes.
-Make him beg.
Or use your charm.
Just like you did with Edgar
to drive him crazy. [laughs]
[laughter]
Well, Elenita, I need you
to call all these models
and tell them we're doing
photos and a video tomorrow,
and to bring bathing suits.
I'm sure with the girls we have here
and the ones we're calling,
we'll find the right one.
I'm just worried about one thing.
-Edguitar?
-I'll think of something.
Yes.
Accept it.
You lost that fight a while ago.
Edgar's riding the Klass 95 bus
and no one is kicking him off.
Let alone when he sees this house.
He'll even want to decorate it.
That's not gonna happen.
Or I lose the American partner.
There's no chance,
Edgar can't be a partner at this agency.
Miss Shaio, I'm sorry for interrupting,
but I just realized your concern
and I took the liberty,
not because I'm a gossip, no,
but I paged a friend from the agency.
They gave me information on Edgar.
I'm sure it'll help you out.
[intriguing music]
I couldn't be happier.
[laughs]
What is it? Tell me.
Listen to this.
It's three messages, okay?
One says: "All set, the appointment
for the US visa is at 7:00 a.m."
The next one: "Consul, my friend,
see you at the embassy."
And this one says:
"Consul, SOB, you're gonna pay."
Huh?
He's going to kill his friend, the consul.
No, genius.
They denied his visa.
Edgar doesn't have entry into
the United States. And if this is true
Elenita! Come, you don't know
what you've just done!
Can I hug you?
[laughs] Give me a hug!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
You're the president of this agency,
the house, the mansion, if you want.
-Thanks.
-Wait, wait.
How can you be so sure?
What if the consul didn't want
to help him directly or?
What are you saying, it means nothing?
Yes, or
or that he screwed up something else.
Why don't you call the consul?
It wouldn't hurt.
Elenita, do you have the phone book here?
Of course, Miss Shaio.
INTERIOR DESIGN
The girl has been preparing
for modeling for a long time.
That's why it's so important
that she wins tomorrow's casting.
And since you own the agency,
I wanted to see
if you'd maybe give me a hand
and find out if Kelly
is all set for the photo thing.
I don't want you to pick
and have her left out.
So? What do you say?
Why don't you give your partners
a little call and help us out?
And also maybe to see how it went,
how they see her,
if they maybe see her as
[sound drowns out]
[sensual music]
[Nayibe] Sir
Hello!
The girl is really pretty, no?
You did hear me, right? [laughs]
Do me a favor, see,
it won't cost you a thing.
I figure if you brought me here
for a drink
and the way you're looking at me,
you find me very pretty
and photogenic, right?
Very
So then, don't act like you didn't hear
my mom and help us out.
You're a partner at the agency, right?
Tell your partners to call me.
I need to win this casting
and take the photos
so I can do the campaign.
And be a model for once and for all.
[sensual music continues]
Hold on. Here you go.
[telephone rings]
Hello.
Edgar. How are you?
What a coincidence,
I was just thinking about you.
I'm sorry I wasn't able to call you
earlier, I was working out some things
for the trip we have.
What trip?
Well, I spoke with Brandon
and he wants us to sign in Houston.
You have everything ready, right?
We are obviously busy with everything
for the campaign and the casting,
but the Tuesday we present the casting,
we can travel that same day.
Is that okay with you
or is that a problem?
No. No, no.
No problem. No, no, no.
There is no problem. It would be
a matter of checking the schedule
and canceling meetings,
and we're all set.
Um Edgar
You know you need a visa
to travel, right?
Your documents have to be up to date
Don't worry, I have everything prepared.
Shaio, since you called,
I wanted to ask you something.
I saw an amazing girl at the agency.
I think she could be the one.
I wanted to see if you
called her for the casting.
Her name is Kelly Sepúlveda.
[Shaio] Um
Yes, yes, yes. I
Kelly. It's this one.
Uh Yes. Kelly, of course.
But, why? Do you know her?
Is she your friend?
Let's just say I think she'd be perfect.
Alright.
I love it that we think alike.
That's why we're partners.
See you at the casting.
I'll plan for the trip
and I'll call you if I need anything. Bye.
[intriguing music]
[Kelly] What'd he say?
-The casting is yours, Kelly.
-[both scream]
The guy has a visa.
And what's more, he recommended
Kelly for the campaign. His favorite.
Well, she is gorgeous.
Just the right one.
But far from the best.
-Goddamn it.
-Shaio, wait.
Don't tell me you're gonna reject her
just because she's his friend.
It's not her fault.
What we need to do is win that casting
no matter what.
That's what I'm worried about,
I want to win this casting.
But I don't want
Edgar involved in this.
Yes, you're right.
Elenita.
Call them all. Let's see
if we can find someone better.
[Elenita] Of course, miss.
-Of course.
-At least for this campaign.
It's about time, no?
Are you starving?
Hmm.
And Andrea Vanessa?
I never understood
how she got into casting.
It was all thanks to Ángelo.
Hmm I don't know anything
about Ángelo's life.
You tell me. Explain.
Ángelo is very important
in this story.
He created artificial intelligence
before it existed.
[man] Morning, Angelito.
What's up, Johncito? How's college?
Good, man. How's it going?
-All good.
-What can I do for you, man?
Look, I need you
to please make a photocopy
from page three to twenty-eight.
But not page nine, eight, or fifteen.
I need three spiral copies, please.
Three copies. Okay.
-Okay?
-Come back in 45 minutes.
Go on. Thanks.
Go ahead.
[Óscar] Come back in how long?
He didn't write notes or make much sense.
But the guy, listen to me, never,
never made a mistake.
[upbeat music]
What does that
have to do with the story?
It has everything to do with it.
Just like all those books
he photocopied,
Ángelo finished stringing together
this story.
Berny had promised
to bring a model to Shaio,
but in reality,
he didn't have anyone.
You came with your model friend's info?
We're about to call her.
Not exactly, I came to take you out.
I want to show you something.
Berny, you can't take me out.
I thought you had your friend's info.
Seriously, we're doing the casting now.
Come on, let's go for a while,
it won't take long.
You don't have any models, do you?
Look, not only do I have a model,
I have the model.
The best, look.
-Gorgeous.
-Give me her info.
Send me a page
with the exact time for the casting,
and she's all yours.
Bye.
What happened?
Nothing, he was giving me the info
on his model friend
for the campaign.
Pretty?
Yes, yes.
Okay.
The louder the bike,
the tackier the driver.
Let's go inside. I'll show you
what I thought of for my business.
Or should I buy a bike?
Yeah? So you can notice me.
Don't be dumb, Nico.
A very tacky one, like the one
He didn't have anyone.
He just did it
so he could see her.
And now he has to play it cool.
[upbeat music]
-See you later.
-All the best.
Well, and?
I have to find a model.
You must have a lot of gorgeous girls
who train at the gym.
Think about who could help.
The problem is that
the ones who could be a model
know her or are friends with Shaio,
they won't work.
I promised I'd bring her someone amazing,
someone perfect.
Ángelo, I need a favor. Um
Can you help show me
how to get to college tomorrow?
-Of course.
-I have to go really early
to pick up the registration form.
It's easy. You go to the corner,
go up a block and take the bus
that says "Timiza Central."
Ask someone which one is Caracas.
Get off,
then take the direct bus to Caracas
up to 72nd, go up two blocks
and you're there, done.
And which one is Caracas?
[whistle blows]
Oh my God,
this girl doesn't know anything.
They're gonna eat you alive.
What time do you leave?
I can't help you
because I have to be here all day
at the shop. If I let you go alone,
you'll get drugged.
-What?
-You are very pretty.
[Berny] Yes
If you want, I can come with you.
I mean, I have to do some things
over there.
[Ángelo] I haven't introduced you.
Berny Gómez, my close friend.
This is Andrea Vanessa,
she just came from Barrancas
and she's staying here
with her cousin, her aunt, and her mom.
A pleasure, Andrea Vanessa.
I know how hard it is
to come to a new city and get used to it.
If you want, I can take you on my bike,
it's no problem.
I mean,
you'd have to come with me
to a meeting afterwards,
but I have my bike.
[Ángelo] No, relax.
He's been a friend all my life
and we take our bikes out every day.
I trust him, you can trust him.
And you can get up early?
We have to leave here at seven.
-I'll be here at ten to seven.
-Done.
[soft uplifting music]
And so the two missing pieces
came together.
INTERIOR DESIGN
Shaio said
you have to bring a bathing suit.
It has to be amazing, okay?
Oh, no.
What? That's going to be hard
since it's so soon.
The designer, my sister,
won't be able to make one in time.
Maybe you might know someone
who could get us one or two. Besides,
if you want, she can model them for you.
Right, baby?
-Still, if you know anyone
-That's enough.
I won't do that again.
How about you model them?
I'm sorry. Kelly!
Kelly!
You're leaving? Are you crazy?
Life brings you a guy like that
and you run off like this?
What's wrong with you? Come here.
Come here. Enough.
Calm down!
I will never do that again. Never again.
Do what again?
You told him about the casting.
What's wrong?
I didn't offer an exchange.
You offered me up in exchange
for a bathing suit. Are you crazy?
Listen to her. What are you saying?
I didn't offer anything, don't lie.
Do me a favor and apologize.
-I won't apologize.
-Yes, ma'am.
-[car honking]
-[Kelly squeals]
[intriguing music]
[Nayibe] You almost got yourself killed.
[dramatic musical sting]
Hollman's alive.
[Edgar] What's wrong?
I think I saw Hollman.
-What happened?
-How can that be?
[Edgar] What happened?
Are you okay?
Yes, yes, no.
She didn't eat breakfast,
and she went and had that mimosa,
and her blood sugar dropped.
Look at her.
I didn't offer her any food.
I didn't know she hadn't eaten.
-Come, come.
-[Nayibe] Help me.
[Nayibe] Let's get her up.
Hollman's alive. I saw him.
No! No.
-It was just hunger.
-What hunger?
Oh, my God. And nerves.
You have to calm down, Kelly.
You're about to accomplish
what you've always wanted.
Please, don't think about that anymore.
-[whispers] I swear I saw him.
-Enough.
Well,
you have to eat,
or how else will you work?
-She's just a little dizzy, that's all.
-Yes?
Here are some cheeses, manchego.
Thank you.
-How do you feel?
-Thank you.
Want me to call a doctor?
No, no, no. Relax,
I'll feel better with all this.
-Are you sure?
-Yes.
Okay, I solved the problem
with the bathing suits.
I spoke with a designer friend who has
an amazing shop and she'll give you
anything you need.
No, relax. I can get them myself.
I can figure it out.
How polite.
We will pick out the best ones
with your friend.
-I swear, okay?
-[Edgar] Kelly,
if you're gonna be in my agency,
you need to shine.
Why do you think I'm doing all this?
To win you over?
Or so I can ask you for something
in return?
No, I do it for my agency.
Okay?
And if you want, you can go here, too.
It's my hairdresser, so they can
fix you up for the casting.
The best in the country.
Hmm?
That's who does your hair?
Yes.
And is it very expensive?
The agency covers the costs.
I'll tell Elver to take you.
He'll pick you up first thing tomorrow
so you don't have any issues.
Okay?
Well, God bless you.
We don't know how we're going
to thank you for your kindness.
I have a couple of ideas, Nayibe.
Come, I'll tell you.
Eat.
Go on.
Mom.
First of all,
I want to tell you one thing.
The only way I can repay you
for your kindness is with work.
I know we just met,
but I have business experience.
I've done inventory management,
I've worked with suppliers,
-I've done customer service, everything
-Nayibe.
I do want you to work for me.
And do you have more businesses?
-The agency.
-Oh.
I saw you deal with my partners.
I saw you get what you wanted
in under a minute.
And how can I help you there?
I never worked in a modeling agency.
I have no experience, but I can learn.
I want you to be an informant.
I want you to infiltrate the agency
and report everything you see.
Everything they do.
You're here to support your daughter,
but you report everything that goes on.
And I mean everything.
The books, ideas, everything they say.
Public life, private life.
I want you to be my eyes and ears
and earn the Domínguezes' trust.
Nayibe, you do a good job
and I swear you'll get everything
you want.
You and your daughter will have it all.
But aren't they your partners?
Oh, no, they are, but they're like a team.
And meanwhile, I'm all alone.
If I don't have anyone
looking after my interests,
someone who has my back, I'm screwed.
No, well, yes, you're right.
You and I are cut from the same cloth,
Nayibe.
Deal?
But we haven't spoken about
I already said you'll have
everything you need with me.
Deal.
Good.
[Juanita] Those two
were peas in a pod.
Nayibe sold her soul again,
but it wasn't just hers,
Kelly's as well.
And she couldn't be happier.
How can you think you saw Hollman?
He's dead and buried.
Mom, you wouldn't believe his face.
-I'm sure it was him.
-Lower your voice. Look.
That's the guilt.
Just stop thinking about it.
Instead, think about how you'll
start your career as a model tomorrow.
And with a chauffeur.
And Edgar was trying
to save his own skin.
[in broken English] Yes. I'm a friend
of Shaio's, and her sister and cousin.
I'm a very important designer
here in Colombia.
-And I'm an agency partner.
-[Brandon in Spanish] Well, sir, please.
Can you speak clearly? I don't understand.
You are a what of Shaio's?
Thank God you speak Spanish, Brandon.
I'm a friend of Shaio's and a partner
at the company, the agency.
And you are calling about?
How can I help you?
I'm calling to invite you to Bogotá.
Well, I was thinking,
if we're going to be partners,
I wanted to surprise my partners
by bringing you here,
and obviously they can't know.
[laughs] No, but I don't know anything
about you. No one has told me about you.
Which partner are you?
The investor, Brandon.
I'm the one financing the operation.
How strange Shaio hasn't mentioned me.
[Brandon] Me too,
because Shaio only told me
about her sister and cousin.
We agreed that it was just them.
Don't you see, Brandon?
That's why you have to come here.
You can't open an agency
with the most gorgeous models in Colombia
and not be here.
Let me talk to Shaio first.
She'll just say no, man.
She'll say she's doing it all alone.
It's obvious she doesn't want you here.
You would take away her shine.
Brandon, Shaio doesn't even mention you.
If you come here, I can offer you
one of those women,
many of those gorgeous women
you saw in the catalog.
And everything
that's illegal where you live.
Everything. I mean everything.
Nothing is off limits.
Parties, clubbing, food, women.
Anything you want.
Are you being serious?
This is how I talk to partners
and friends. Completely serious.
Brandon, this will be
the best trip of your life.
I swear you won't regret it.
Colombia is waiting, my friend.
[telephone beeps]
[chuckles]
[Óscar] The next day,
the Domínguezes and everyone
they called took over the mansion.
Those go in the room
named "Makeup," please. The chair too.
[upbeat music]
Next.
[Shaio] For this campaign,
I think we better use this corner.
We have windows,
all the natural light, right? Plants.
-Life. That's what we need.
-Yes.
-Yes, the truth is
-Good afternoon. Laurita, my love.
-We can't take the photos here.
-Look, Nicolás.
We know exactly what we want, okay?
Well, no, it seems like it.
If I learned anything
from my major in sales at Boston,
it's that people want
what they can't have. An aspiration.
-What happened?
-Like how Berny sees my life.
Something like that.
-And this isn't aspirational
-Thanks, Nicolás.
Nico, why don't you go and tell this
to Óscar, the lighting guy?
-He's in charge.
-Thanks, Nico.
Now, will you admit
what it is you did to get Agustín
to do this for us for free?
I told him that tonight,
after the casting,
he could take me out somewhere.
-[laughs] Okay. He's taking you out?
-Yes.
Lau, he's the cheapest guy in the world.
Rolling. Here's what
we're going to do next.
We're going to start rehearsing
with these stills
and then, we'll do photos with your
camera, okay?
-Yes. Okay.
-Alright.
Did Berny's recommendation get here yet?
No, not yet. And number 2403, Kelly,
hasn't either,
the one Mr. Edgar recommended.
I'll page her.
Of course, Edgar's choice.
You must be very good if you know Edgar.
-And he's a partner at the agency.
-What?
-Then the casting is yours.
-[laughing]
No. Listen.
You know what?
I think that, after this casting,
all the bad things that happened
are gonna stay in the past.
Hopefully.
Okay, it's time.
-Let's go.
-Let's go, baby. Let's go.
Yes, my love. Good luck at the university.
-You hear?
-Yes.
-The Virgin Mary is with you.
-Amen.
[yelling and cheering]
Shine, my love.
Oh, and why is this closed?
Oh, let's go, let's go.
-[Elver] Miss Kelly. Miss Nayibe.
-[Nayibe] What's up?
[Kelly] Oh, let's go.
[Nayibe] Oh, thanks.
-[Nayibe] The window, my hair.
-[Kelly] Oh, Mom.
[bike engine rumbles]
[Giselle] So, everything's all organized.
If they ask,
this is your birth certificate.
If they ask if it's certified,
here it is.
Certified, okay?
Here's the other one.
-Take the photocopies.
-[Berny] Good morning.
How are you? Good morning.
Well?
-[Giselle] Hello.
-Nice to meet you.
Drive carefully,
I want her back in one piece.
Don't come back saying
she lost a knee, an elbow.
Hold those papers tight
so they don't blow away.
[Berny] Don't worry, I'll go slow.
I hope you get a spot.
You're so sweet, introducing her
to that special and handsome boy.
Berny is smart, he's very polite.
I have to go to the store
to buy something.
Can I get you something?
Well, if you brought me a coffee,
I wouldn't be mad.
Any sugar?
Extra sweet.
[romantic music]
[upbeat music]
Have you been to this part of the city?
No, I haven't been anywhere.

[upbeat glamorous music]
I think we can use her for the magazine
or maybe for a mid-season campaign.
But not for the runway.
She's not tall enough.
-Of course.
-Yes, but she is registered.
[Laura] Perfect.
-[Shaio] Great body.
-Yes.
-Next.
-Gorgeous.
-Next one. Margita.
-Óscar, lower the flex a little.
Good afternoon.
I knew you guys were the right ones.
[Moni] Excuse me.
[Edgar] So this is the mansion.
-Edgar.
-[Edgar] Keep working.
And the one I recommended?
Who is the one you recommended, Edgar?
[tense music]
[Agustín] That's good.
A little more.
[Agustín] Done. Next, thank you.
Next.
Oh, that girl's a bombshell ♪
Good afternoon.
She likes to dance, she likes to party ♪
She sweeps up everything in her path
Like a hurricane ♪
You are left dripping
You are left empty-handed ♪
Come over here. You can make a line there.
Mom can wait over here,
if you'd be so kind.
And where did this gorgeous girl
come from?
I can find out if you want.
-Hmm?
-Mmm.
Baby, here comes the photographer.
[Agustín] Hey.
Have we met?
What brand have you worked with?
Answer, baby.
Uh, no, I
This is my first job.
I haven't worked yet.
I thought you were experienced.
Let's see what you've got.
-Let's continue, please.
-He thought you were a model.
[Agustín] Place the flex.
Very good.
Let's see.
[Vanessa sobs]
[sniffles]
[Vanessa sobs]
[Berny] What happened?
What's the matter?
What's wrong?
Did someone disrespect you?
Did they mistreat you?
If that's the case, I'll go get even.
No, relax.
Relax, it was nothing.
Well, then?
I'm the dumb one.
For thinking that just wanting things
and being a good student would be enough.
Look.
Look how much it costs.
Damn it, I thought getting here
would be the hardest part.
How old are you?
Seventeen.
You're seventeen years old.
Everything's going to be okay.
Look, relax.
You can go to university
next semester or next year,
don't worry.
You don't understand.
This is all I want.
[Berny] Alright, look at me.
I'm not saying you shouldn't study.
I'm just saying there are many paths
to get to your goal.
This university will always be here.
How old do you think it is? 100?
It'll be here for another 100 years,
and you're only seventeen.
There's still time.
Yes, it'll be here another 100 years.
But even 100 years of working
won't get me the money I need.
Want me to help you get that money?
Well, come on.
I'll show you how to get that money.
Hold on, how? What are you talking about?
Trust me, it's nothing bad.
There's a simple way to do it,
and I can show you.
Let's go.
Get on, get on.
Let's do a more fierce expression.
But don't lose that softness in your eyes.
[Shaio] For me, with the ones we have now
-I like this one.
-Number 18.
[Agustín] That's it,
let's do one last one.
That's it, next, please.
[Agustín] Gorgeous.
Ooh, perfect.
-Wow.
-[Agustín] Look.
Perfect. Look at me. I want you like this.
Serious, but also outgoing. Understand?
So, one, two, done.
That's gorgeous.
Perfect.
Fierce look, but soft. Fierce, but soft.
[camera clicks]
So cute. Real bitchy,
but also very gentle, my love.
That is gorgeous. Now, three quarters.
Look at me, in position. That's it.
Beautiful. Last one.
Next, please.
That's gorgeous.
-Of course.
-It's the color.
I don't like the color palette very much.
-No, not at all.
-Hello.
Can I go change?
I'm just a little cold.
[Shaio] Yes, go ahead, it's okay.
We're gonna start developing
the photos tonight.
When we make a decision,
we'll let you know.
-[Shaio laughs]
-Oh, we're not leaving.
We're staying. She's going to change
because she's cold,
but we're going to stay.
-Oh, okay.
-And wait to hear what you say.
Yes.
-Bye.
-[Agustín] Bye.
[Moni] Odd, right?
[Shaio] Okay, and this one with the hair
[brakes hissing]
[Berny] Look, I brought you some
[Vanessa] Son of a bitch!
What an idiot.
Screw you!
No, you tell him, too!
How can he splash you like that?
Tell him what?
I'd better help you get dry.
Come, come, let me help you.
Kelly is definitely the best of them all.
She's the prettiest. I don't even
have to look at the photos.
I know. She's gorgeous.
Oh, I just can't believe that
Edgar's recommendation is the right one.
[Shaio] Did you see his face?
Yes, they are all gorgeous.
But not for a soap campaign.
The one who doesn't have stretch marks
has cellulite,
acne, fat rolls.
We would have to look for more models
and we don't have time.
I think it's time to accept
that Kelly's the best one.
[door creaks]
What was that?
I don't know.
But, you know what? I want
to know what happened to the other one.
-Yes, yes, yes.
-Let's go.
[sighs]
[Berny] It's nothing.
[Vanessa] Hey, what's this?
It's a modeling agency.
Inside is a friend of mine, Shaio,
and she's looking for a girl like you
-for a really important campaign.
-What? No, no, no.
I'm sure it's the campaign
my cousin is doing.
No, you should have told me.
Have you considered
that if you became a model,
you'd be able to pay for college?
That's what my cousin does.
She's the one who's a model.
I want to be a manager.
You should've told me,
we could've saved ourselves the trip.
Let's go.
You know what? Wait for me here.
Where are you going?
If you see Shaio,
tell her I sent you, okay?
Uh-huh.
[theme song plays]
MAINTENANCE
Sir, can I borrow the hose for a moment?
Yes, of course, ma'am.
[theme song continues playing]
[Moni] No, we did really well.
[Shaio] But the one he suggested
is missing something.
The one Berny suggested?
Oh, honey, give it all to me ♪
Don't be so mean
You're the death of me ♪
Hey! Hey, one second!
No. Don't leave. Don't leave.
Who are you?
Shaio said something
that started World War III.
Look, I don't know how you got here,
but I'm positive
you're the model we're looking for.
No, I don't think so.
Just let me take a couple photos.
That's all.
-Just a couple, okay? Come.
-Yes.
[Shaio] Hey, please.
It's just a couple photos.
It's for a registry, that's all. Okay?
[Kelly] No, no, no.
She's not doing any photos
or any casting because she's leaving.
[Nayibe] Kellycita, wait.
-[Nayibe] Wait.
-You know her?
What do you mean, wait?
[Kelly] What are you doing here?
Well, I didn't come here to take
any photos. I just came to rinse off.
Look at me.
[mockingly] Oh, she came to rinse off.
To strut around for them to see.
[Berny] What's this?
A wet T-shirt contest?
Why are you being so shitty?
What have I ever done to you?
Well, I haven't done anything, either.
I just came with Ángelo's friend.
Well, get going.
It's getting late, sweetie.
Well, I don't want to go.
-No?
-You're so arrogant.
And I'm sick
of everything being your fault,
that we're on the run because you killed
[Nayibe] No, no, no.
-Careful!
-[indistinct yelling]
[Nayibe] So sorry. Excuse us.
Um, this is all just a misunderstanding.
The girl doesn't want any photos,
right, baby? Tell them.
She doesn't want any.
She doesn't even like it.
Go home, we'll fix this.
Fix what?
Why leave when I haven't done anything?
[Nayibe] Look
do me a favor and go back to Caracas.
You know what it took
for Kelly to get here.
So stop it.
When she gets the job,
she'll help you out.
But go now, don't be silly, okay?
What do I have to do? I'm ready.
-Oh, Óscar.
-A couple photos.
Everyone, places.
[indistinct yelling]
Let me go!
You rat!
Shaio, I think we should wait a minute.
Edgar, I don't care
what you think right now.
That girl is a bombshell.
And I'm sure
I'm going to win the campaign.
-Yes, but I
-Excuse me.

THE POWER OF BEAUTY
"THIS STORY IS A WORK OF FICTION,
BASED ON
AND INSPIRED BY REAL-LIFE EVENTS."
Well, tell me what you know.
Alright.
When Kelly and her mom
came to the store,
I almost had to tape their mouths shut,
they were drooling so bad.
Yes, Hollman came to the store,
but he didn't dare come in.
No, that's not what happened.
[tense music]
[Edgar] We're here.
[Hollman] Stop here. Stop.
[Nayibe] Oh, thanks.
Please, go ahead.
[Nayibe] Sorry. Thank you.
[Edgar] Welcome, come in.
Oh, it's so pretty.
Go on, go ahead.
Wait here for me.
Good morning, man. How can I help you?
Hollman wanted to come inside,
but Elver didn't let him.
I came to look at some furniture.
Oh, I'm sorry, but today we are only open
for an exclusive event.
Exclusive clients.
What exclusive clients?
I just saw two people go in
They are exclusive clients.
No, they are not exclusive clients
Look, I don't know
how to make you understand
that today we're only serving
exclusive clients.
[snaps fingers]
[Hollman] Okay.
[Elver] Have a good day.
Goodbye.
[tense music]
[Juanita] Hollman made him leave,
but he went to hide
so he wouldn't lose their trace.
The guy waited outside
until Kelly left.
Look, wait, wait.
We should talk about what the Domínguezes
were doing in the meantime.
Now you're gonna tell me
how to tell my story?
My idea?
Look, Juanita, let me explain something.
I don't know what you're doing,
or why you want to tell my story,
but I risked a lot,
I won't lose because of you.
Capisce?
Let me explain something to you.
You need me
if you don't want Kelly
to come and kill you.
Capisce?
Besides,
I want to tell the story right.
I want to divulge
what happened to Kelly, Nayibe,
and, above all, what Nicolás did to you,
to me, to Berny, and everyone else.
What do you want?
To tell this story together.
And to tell it right.
You edit your book,
I'll authorize the publication
and everyone's happy.
Deal?
Deal.
[intriguing music]
While Edgar was trying to figure out
who Kelly and her mom really were,
the Domínguezes were looking for
the mansion that would make them famous.
[upbeat music]
[Shaio] We're stopping?
[Shaio] Tell me what this is!
[exclaims]
[Moni] How are you?
What is this, Moni?
No.
[laughs]
What's going on? How'd it go?
Good.
Hey.
I needed you to come see this.
It's crazy, right?
Can you imagine our sign out there?
Klass 95.
And this room's perfect for makeup,
wardrobe, everything, with all the light.
[Shaio] I love it.
It'll be legendary.
Moni, this is just spectacular.
Wow.
Are you guys thinking
of robbing a bank or?
[Moni laughs]
You don't even have your first deal
and you're already setting up.
[Shaio] Oh, no, look at this.
[Moni] Huh?
-No, this house is gorgeous.
-Yes.
But first we have to win
over the campaign, because then
We can do the casting here. Come.
The owner is one of the guys
who danced all night
with Paola at the release
and he's head over heels for her.
He told us we could try the house out
and if we liked it, he'd rent to us
without a guarantor or anything,
just our signature.
On the condition
that we invite him to everything.
He's invited, alright.
Well, what a hit.
We can do meetings here.
The office would be perfect here.
Okay then, now for what we came for.
Take out the pictures, please.
Let's pick out who we're going to call.
Some are gorgeous.
The thing is, the photos don't help.
[Óscar] She's pretty.
But you're right, look.
Who told her she looked sexy
dressed like that?
You should see how the girls
look when they come to my mom's house
and how they leave.
No, I don't think anyone is ugly,
just ill-advised.
Well
Let's do some photos and a video
that will blow our client away.
I hadn't considered that.
With what camera?
And what photographer?
Well, I was thinking Agustín.
Santi's friend.
That guy does well.
Hmm.
You know him, why don't you call him?
Me?
Let Laura call him,
she's been his platonic friend for years.
Well, that is true.
So then, he's your contact. Call him.
Yes? Great. Moni found the mansion.
Okay, and what do you think we should say?
That it's also a casting for him
to see how well he does?
Shaio, I swear,
he's the best photographer in Colombia.
He's not working for free.
Well, he might be
the best photographer in Colombia,
but he's never worked with Klass 95,
right?
Besides, aren't you always saying
you have to be unreachable?
-[Laura] Yes.
-Make him beg.
Or use your charm.
Just like you did with Edgar
to drive him crazy. [laughs]
[laughter]
Well, Elenita, I need you
to call all these models
and tell them we're doing
photos and a video tomorrow,
and to bring bathing suits.
I'm sure with the girls we have here
and the ones we're calling,
we'll find the right one.
I'm just worried about one thing.
-Edguitar?
-I'll think of something.
Yes.
Accept it.
You lost that fight a while ago.
Edgar's riding the Klass 95 bus
and no one is kicking him off.
Let alone when he sees this house.
He'll even want to decorate it.
That's not gonna happen.
Or I lose the American partner.
There's no chance,
Edgar can't be a partner at this agency.
Miss Shaio, I'm sorry for interrupting,
but I just realized your concern
and I took the liberty,
not because I'm a gossip, no,
but I paged a friend from the agency.
They gave me information on Edgar.
I'm sure it'll help you out.
[intriguing music]
I couldn't be happier.
[laughs]
What is it? Tell me.
Listen to this.
It's three messages, okay?
One says: "All set, the appointment
for the US visa is at 7:00 a.m."
The next one: "Consul, my friend,
see you at the embassy."
And this one says:
"Consul, SOB, you're gonna pay."
Huh?
He's going to kill his friend, the consul.
No, genius.
They denied his visa.
Edgar doesn't have entry into
the United States. And if this is true
Elenita! Come, you don't know
what you've just done!
Can I hug you?
[laughs] Give me a hug!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
You're the president of this agency,
the house, the mansion, if you want.
-Thanks.
-Wait, wait.
How can you be so sure?
What if the consul didn't want
to help him directly or?
What are you saying, it means nothing?
Yes, or
or that he screwed up something else.
Why don't you call the consul?
It wouldn't hurt.
Elenita, do you have the phone book here?
Of course, Miss Shaio.
INTERIOR DESIGN
The girl has been preparing
for modeling for a long time.
That's why it's so important
that she wins tomorrow's casting.
And since you own the agency,
I wanted to see
if you'd maybe give me a hand
and find out if Kelly
is all set for the photo thing.
I don't want you to pick
and have her left out.
So? What do you say?
Why don't you give your partners
a little call and help us out?
And also maybe to see how it went,
how they see her,
if they maybe see her as
[sound drowns out]
[sensual music]
[Nayibe] Sir
Hello!
The girl is really pretty, no?
You did hear me, right? [laughs]
Do me a favor, see,
it won't cost you a thing.
I figure if you brought me here
for a drink
and the way you're looking at me,
you find me very pretty
and photogenic, right?
Very
So then, don't act like you didn't hear
my mom and help us out.
You're a partner at the agency, right?
Tell your partners to call me.
I need to win this casting
and take the photos
so I can do the campaign.
And be a model for once and for all.
[sensual music continues]
Hold on. Here you go.
[telephone rings]
Hello.
Edgar. How are you?
What a coincidence,
I was just thinking about you.
I'm sorry I wasn't able to call you
earlier, I was working out some things
for the trip we have.
What trip?
Well, I spoke with Brandon
and he wants us to sign in Houston.
You have everything ready, right?
We are obviously busy with everything
for the campaign and the casting,
but the Tuesday we present the casting,
we can travel that same day.
Is that okay with you
or is that a problem?
No. No, no.
No problem. No, no, no.
There is no problem. It would be
a matter of checking the schedule
and canceling meetings,
and we're all set.
Um Edgar
You know you need a visa
to travel, right?
Your documents have to be up to date
Don't worry, I have everything prepared.
Shaio, since you called,
I wanted to ask you something.
I saw an amazing girl at the agency.
I think she could be the one.
I wanted to see if you
called her for the casting.
Her name is Kelly Sepúlveda.
[Shaio] Um
Yes, yes, yes. I
Kelly. It's this one.
Uh Yes. Kelly, of course.
But, why? Do you know her?
Is she your friend?
Let's just say I think she'd be perfect.
Alright.
I love it that we think alike.
That's why we're partners.
See you at the casting.
I'll plan for the trip
and I'll call you if I need anything. Bye.
[intriguing music]
[Kelly] What'd he say?
-The casting is yours, Kelly.
-[both scream]
The guy has a visa.
And what's more, he recommended
Kelly for the campaign. His favorite.
Well, she is gorgeous.
Just the right one.
But far from the best.
-Goddamn it.
-Shaio, wait.
Don't tell me you're gonna reject her
just because she's his friend.
It's not her fault.
What we need to do is win that casting
no matter what.
That's what I'm worried about,
I want to win this casting.
But I don't want
Edgar involved in this.
Yes, you're right.
Elenita.
Call them all. Let's see
if we can find someone better.
[Elenita] Of course, miss.
-Of course.
-At least for this campaign.
It's about time, no?
Are you starving?
Hmm.
And Andrea Vanessa?
I never understood
how she got into casting.
It was all thanks to Ángelo.
Hmm I don't know anything
about Ángelo's life.
You tell me. Explain.
Ángelo is very important
in this story.
He created artificial intelligence
before it existed.
[man] Morning, Angelito.
What's up, Johncito? How's college?
Good, man. How's it going?
-All good.
-What can I do for you, man?
Look, I need you
to please make a photocopy
from page three to twenty-eight.
But not page nine, eight, or fifteen.
I need three spiral copies, please.
Three copies. Okay.
-Okay?
-Come back in 45 minutes.
Go on. Thanks.
Go ahead.
[Óscar] Come back in how long?
He didn't write notes or make much sense.
But the guy, listen to me, never,
never made a mistake.
[upbeat music]
What does that
have to do with the story?
It has everything to do with it.
Just like all those books
he photocopied,
Ángelo finished stringing together
this story.
Berny had promised
to bring a model to Shaio,
but in reality,
he didn't have anyone.
You came with your model friend's info?
We're about to call her.
Not exactly, I came to take you out.
I want to show you something.
Berny, you can't take me out.
I thought you had your friend's info.
Seriously, we're doing the casting now.
Come on, let's go for a while,
it won't take long.
You don't have any models, do you?
Look, not only do I have a model,
I have the model.
The best, look.
-Gorgeous.
-Give me her info.
Send me a page
with the exact time for the casting,
and she's all yours.
Bye.
What happened?
Nothing, he was giving me the info
on his model friend
for the campaign.
Pretty?
Yes, yes.
Okay.
The louder the bike,
the tackier the driver.
Let's go inside. I'll show you
what I thought of for my business.
Or should I buy a bike?
Yeah? So you can notice me.
Don't be dumb, Nico.
A very tacky one, like the one
He didn't have anyone.
He just did it
so he could see her.
And now he has to play it cool.
[upbeat music]
-See you later.
-All the best.
Well, and?
I have to find a model.
You must have a lot of gorgeous girls
who train at the gym.
Think about who could help.
The problem is that
the ones who could be a model
know her or are friends with Shaio,
they won't work.
I promised I'd bring her someone amazing,
someone perfect.
Ángelo, I need a favor. Um
Can you help show me
how to get to college tomorrow?
-Of course.
-I have to go really early
to pick up the registration form.
It's easy. You go to the corner,
go up a block and take the bus
that says "Timiza Central."
Ask someone which one is Caracas.
Get off,
then take the direct bus to Caracas
up to 72nd, go up two blocks
and you're there, done.
And which one is Caracas?
[whistle blows]
Oh my God,
this girl doesn't know anything.
They're gonna eat you alive.
What time do you leave?
I can't help you
because I have to be here all day
at the shop. If I let you go alone,
you'll get drugged.
-What?
-You are very pretty.
[Berny] Yes
If you want, I can come with you.
I mean, I have to do some things
over there.
[Ángelo] I haven't introduced you.
Berny Gómez, my close friend.
This is Andrea Vanessa,
she just came from Barrancas
and she's staying here
with her cousin, her aunt, and her mom.
A pleasure, Andrea Vanessa.
I know how hard it is
to come to a new city and get used to it.
If you want, I can take you on my bike,
it's no problem.
I mean,
you'd have to come with me
to a meeting afterwards,
but I have my bike.
[Ángelo] No, relax.
He's been a friend all my life
and we take our bikes out every day.
I trust him, you can trust him.
And you can get up early?
We have to leave here at seven.
-I'll be here at ten to seven.
-Done.
[soft uplifting music]
And so the two missing pieces
came together.
INTERIOR DESIGN
Shaio said
you have to bring a bathing suit.
It has to be amazing, okay?
Oh, no.
What? That's going to be hard
since it's so soon.
The designer, my sister,
won't be able to make one in time.
Maybe you might know someone
who could get us one or two. Besides,
if you want, she can model them for you.
Right, baby?
-Still, if you know anyone
-That's enough.
I won't do that again.
How about you model them?
I'm sorry. Kelly!
Kelly!
You're leaving? Are you crazy?
Life brings you a guy like that
and you run off like this?
What's wrong with you? Come here.
Come here. Enough.
Calm down!
I will never do that again. Never again.
Do what again?
You told him about the casting.
What's wrong?
I didn't offer an exchange.
You offered me up in exchange
for a bathing suit. Are you crazy?
Listen to her. What are you saying?
I didn't offer anything, don't lie.
Do me a favor and apologize.
-I won't apologize.
-Yes, ma'am.
-[car honking]
-[Kelly squeals]
[intriguing music]
[Nayibe] You almost got yourself killed.
[dramatic musical sting]
Hollman's alive.
[Edgar] What's wrong?
I think I saw Hollman.
-What happened?
-How can that be?
[Edgar] What happened?
Are you okay?
Yes, yes, no.
She didn't eat breakfast,
and she went and had that mimosa,
and her blood sugar dropped.
Look at her.
I didn't offer her any food.
I didn't know she hadn't eaten.
-Come, come.
-[Nayibe] Help me.
[Nayibe] Let's get her up.
Hollman's alive. I saw him.
No! No.
-It was just hunger.
-What hunger?
Oh, my God. And nerves.
You have to calm down, Kelly.
You're about to accomplish
what you've always wanted.
Please, don't think about that anymore.
-[whispers] I swear I saw him.
-Enough.
Well,
you have to eat,
or how else will you work?
-She's just a little dizzy, that's all.
-Yes?
Here are some cheeses, manchego.
Thank you.
-How do you feel?
-Thank you.
Want me to call a doctor?
No, no, no. Relax,
I'll feel better with all this.
-Are you sure?
-Yes.
Okay, I solved the problem
with the bathing suits.
I spoke with a designer friend who has
an amazing shop and she'll give you
anything you need.
No, relax. I can get them myself.
I can figure it out.
How polite.
We will pick out the best ones
with your friend.
-I swear, okay?
-[Edgar] Kelly,
if you're gonna be in my agency,
you need to shine.
Why do you think I'm doing all this?
To win you over?
Or so I can ask you for something
in return?
No, I do it for my agency.
Okay?
And if you want, you can go here, too.
It's my hairdresser, so they can
fix you up for the casting.
The best in the country.
Hmm?
That's who does your hair?
Yes.
And is it very expensive?
The agency covers the costs.
I'll tell Elver to take you.
He'll pick you up first thing tomorrow
so you don't have any issues.
Okay?
Well, God bless you.
We don't know how we're going
to thank you for your kindness.
I have a couple of ideas, Nayibe.
Come, I'll tell you.
Eat.
Go on.
Mom.
First of all,
I want to tell you one thing.
The only way I can repay you
for your kindness is with work.
I know we just met,
but I have business experience.
I've done inventory management,
I've worked with suppliers,
-I've done customer service, everything
-Nayibe.
I do want you to work for me.
And do you have more businesses?
-The agency.
-Oh.
I saw you deal with my partners.
I saw you get what you wanted
in under a minute.
And how can I help you there?
I never worked in a modeling agency.
I have no experience, but I can learn.
I want you to be an informant.
I want you to infiltrate the agency
and report everything you see.
Everything they do.
You're here to support your daughter,
but you report everything that goes on.
And I mean everything.
The books, ideas, everything they say.
Public life, private life.
I want you to be my eyes and ears
and earn the Domínguezes' trust.
Nayibe, you do a good job
and I swear you'll get everything
you want.
You and your daughter will have it all.
But aren't they your partners?
Oh, no, they are, but they're like a team.
And meanwhile, I'm all alone.
If I don't have anyone
looking after my interests,
someone who has my back, I'm screwed.
No, well, yes, you're right.
You and I are cut from the same cloth,
Nayibe.
Deal?
But we haven't spoken about
I already said you'll have
everything you need with me.
Deal.
Good.
[Juanita] Those two
were peas in a pod.
Nayibe sold her soul again,
but it wasn't just hers,
Kelly's as well.
And she couldn't be happier.
How can you think you saw Hollman?
He's dead and buried.
Mom, you wouldn't believe his face.
-I'm sure it was him.
-Lower your voice. Look.
That's the guilt.
Just stop thinking about it.
Instead, think about how you'll
start your career as a model tomorrow.
And with a chauffeur.
And Edgar was trying
to save his own skin.
[in broken English] Yes. I'm a friend
of Shaio's, and her sister and cousin.
I'm a very important designer
here in Colombia.
-And I'm an agency partner.
-[Brandon in Spanish] Well, sir, please.
Can you speak clearly? I don't understand.
You are a what of Shaio's?
Thank God you speak Spanish, Brandon.
I'm a friend of Shaio's and a partner
at the company, the agency.
And you are calling about?
How can I help you?
I'm calling to invite you to Bogotá.
Well, I was thinking,
if we're going to be partners,
I wanted to surprise my partners
by bringing you here,
and obviously they can't know.
[laughs] No, but I don't know anything
about you. No one has told me about you.
Which partner are you?
The investor, Brandon.
I'm the one financing the operation.
How strange Shaio hasn't mentioned me.
[Brandon] Me too,
because Shaio only told me
about her sister and cousin.
We agreed that it was just them.
Don't you see, Brandon?
That's why you have to come here.
You can't open an agency
with the most gorgeous models in Colombia
and not be here.
Let me talk to Shaio first.
She'll just say no, man.
She'll say she's doing it all alone.
It's obvious she doesn't want you here.
You would take away her shine.
Brandon, Shaio doesn't even mention you.
If you come here, I can offer you
one of those women,
many of those gorgeous women
you saw in the catalog.
And everything
that's illegal where you live.
Everything. I mean everything.
Nothing is off limits.
Parties, clubbing, food, women.
Anything you want.
Are you being serious?
This is how I talk to partners
and friends. Completely serious.
Brandon, this will be
the best trip of your life.
I swear you won't regret it.
Colombia is waiting, my friend.
[telephone beeps]
[chuckles]
[Óscar] The next day,
the Domínguezes and everyone
they called took over the mansion.
Those go in the room
named "Makeup," please. The chair too.
[upbeat music]
Next.
[Shaio] For this campaign,
I think we better use this corner.
We have windows,
all the natural light, right? Plants.
-Life. That's what we need.
-Yes.
-Yes, the truth is
-Good afternoon. Laurita, my love.
-We can't take the photos here.
-Look, Nicolás.
We know exactly what we want, okay?
Well, no, it seems like it.
If I learned anything
from my major in sales at Boston,
it's that people want
what they can't have. An aspiration.
-What happened?
-Like how Berny sees my life.
Something like that.
-And this isn't aspirational
-Thanks, Nicolás.
Nico, why don't you go and tell this
to Óscar, the lighting guy?
-He's in charge.
-Thanks, Nico.
Now, will you admit
what it is you did to get Agustín
to do this for us for free?
I told him that tonight,
after the casting,
he could take me out somewhere.
-[laughs] Okay. He's taking you out?
-Yes.
Lau, he's the cheapest guy in the world.
Rolling. Here's what
we're going to do next.
We're going to start rehearsing
with these stills
and then, we'll do photos with your
camera, okay?
-Yes. Okay.
-Alright.
Did Berny's recommendation get here yet?
No, not yet. And number 2403, Kelly,
hasn't either,
the one Mr. Edgar recommended.
I'll page her.
Of course, Edgar's choice.
You must be very good if you know Edgar.
-And he's a partner at the agency.
-What?
-Then the casting is yours.
-[laughing]
No. Listen.
You know what?
I think that, after this casting,
all the bad things that happened
are gonna stay in the past.
Hopefully.
Okay, it's time.
-Let's go.
-Let's go, baby. Let's go.
Yes, my love. Good luck at the university.
-You hear?
-Yes.
-The Virgin Mary is with you.
-Amen.
[yelling and cheering]
Shine, my love.
Oh, and why is this closed?
Oh, let's go, let's go.
-[Elver] Miss Kelly. Miss Nayibe.
-[Nayibe] What's up?
[Kelly] Oh, let's go.
[Nayibe] Oh, thanks.
-[Nayibe] The window, my hair.
-[Kelly] Oh, Mom.
[bike engine rumbles]
[Giselle] So, everything's all organized.
If they ask,
this is your birth certificate.
If they ask if it's certified,
here it is.
Certified, okay?
Here's the other one.
-Take the photocopies.
-[Berny] Good morning.
How are you? Good morning.
Well?
-[Giselle] Hello.
-Nice to meet you.
Drive carefully,
I want her back in one piece.
Don't come back saying
she lost a knee, an elbow.
Hold those papers tight
so they don't blow away.
[Berny] Don't worry, I'll go slow.
I hope you get a spot.
You're so sweet, introducing her
to that special and handsome boy.
Berny is smart, he's very polite.
I have to go to the store
to buy something.
Can I get you something?
Well, if you brought me a coffee,
I wouldn't be mad.
Any sugar?
Extra sweet.
[romantic music]
[upbeat music]
Have you been to this part of the city?
No, I haven't been anywhere.

[upbeat glamorous music]
I think we can use her for the magazine
or maybe for a mid-season campaign.
But not for the runway.
She's not tall enough.
-Of course.
-Yes, but she is registered.
[Laura] Perfect.
-[Shaio] Great body.
-Yes.
-Next.
-Gorgeous.
-Next one. Margita.
-Óscar, lower the flex a little.
Good afternoon.
I knew you guys were the right ones.
[Moni] Excuse me.
[Edgar] So this is the mansion.
-Edgar.
-[Edgar] Keep working.
And the one I recommended?
Who is the one you recommended, Edgar?
[tense music]
[Agustín] That's good.
A little more.
[Agustín] Done. Next, thank you.
Next.
Oh, that girl's a bombshell ♪
Good afternoon.
She likes to dance, she likes to party ♪
She sweeps up everything in her path
Like a hurricane ♪
You are left dripping
You are left empty-handed ♪
Come over here. You can make a line there.
Mom can wait over here,
if you'd be so kind.
And where did this gorgeous girl
come from?
I can find out if you want.
-Hmm?
-Mmm.
Baby, here comes the photographer.
[Agustín] Hey.
Have we met?
What brand have you worked with?
Answer, baby.
Uh, no, I
This is my first job.
I haven't worked yet.
I thought you were experienced.
Let's see what you've got.
-Let's continue, please.
-He thought you were a model.
[Agustín] Place the flex.
Very good.
Let's see.
[Vanessa sobs]
[sniffles]
[Vanessa sobs]
[Berny] What happened?
What's the matter?
What's wrong?
Did someone disrespect you?
Did they mistreat you?
If that's the case, I'll go get even.
No, relax.
Relax, it was nothing.
Well, then?
I'm the dumb one.
For thinking that just wanting things
and being a good student would be enough.
Look.
Look how much it costs.
Damn it, I thought getting here
would be the hardest part.
How old are you?
Seventeen.
You're seventeen years old.
Everything's going to be okay.
Look, relax.
You can go to university
next semester or next year,
don't worry.
You don't understand.
This is all I want.
[Berny] Alright, look at me.
I'm not saying you shouldn't study.
I'm just saying there are many paths
to get to your goal.
This university will always be here.
How old do you think it is? 100?
It'll be here for another 100 years,
and you're only seventeen.
There's still time.
Yes, it'll be here another 100 years.
But even 100 years of working
won't get me the money I need.
Want me to help you get that money?
Well, come on.
I'll show you how to get that money.
Hold on, how? What are you talking about?
Trust me, it's nothing bad.
There's a simple way to do it,
and I can show you.
Let's go.
Get on, get on.
Let's do a more fierce expression.
But don't lose that softness in your eyes.
[Shaio] For me, with the ones we have now
-I like this one.
-Number 18.
[Agustín] That's it,
let's do one last one.
That's it, next, please.
[Agustín] Gorgeous.
Ooh, perfect.
-Wow.
-[Agustín] Look.
Perfect. Look at me. I want you like this.
Serious, but also outgoing. Understand?
So, one, two, done.
That's gorgeous.
Perfect.
Fierce look, but soft. Fierce, but soft.
[camera clicks]
So cute. Real bitchy,
but also very gentle, my love.
That is gorgeous. Now, three quarters.
Look at me, in position. That's it.
Beautiful. Last one.
Next, please.
That's gorgeous.
-Of course.
-It's the color.
I don't like the color palette very much.
-No, not at all.
-Hello.
Can I go change?
I'm just a little cold.
[Shaio] Yes, go ahead, it's okay.
We're gonna start developing
the photos tonight.
When we make a decision,
we'll let you know.
-[Shaio laughs]
-Oh, we're not leaving.
We're staying. She's going to change
because she's cold,
but we're going to stay.
-Oh, okay.
-And wait to hear what you say.
Yes.
-Bye.
-[Agustín] Bye.
[Moni] Odd, right?
[Shaio] Okay, and this one with the hair
[brakes hissing]
[Berny] Look, I brought you some
[Vanessa] Son of a bitch!
What an idiot.
Screw you!
No, you tell him, too!
How can he splash you like that?
Tell him what?
I'd better help you get dry.
Come, come, let me help you.
Kelly is definitely the best of them all.
She's the prettiest. I don't even
have to look at the photos.
I know. She's gorgeous.
Oh, I just can't believe that
Edgar's recommendation is the right one.
[Shaio] Did you see his face?
Yes, they are all gorgeous.
But not for a soap campaign.
The one who doesn't have stretch marks
has cellulite,
acne, fat rolls.
We would have to look for more models
and we don't have time.
I think it's time to accept
that Kelly's the best one.
[door creaks]
What was that?
I don't know.
But, you know what? I want
to know what happened to the other one.
-Yes, yes, yes.
-Let's go.
[sighs]
[Berny] It's nothing.
[Vanessa] Hey, what's this?
It's a modeling agency.
Inside is a friend of mine, Shaio,
and she's looking for a girl like you
-for a really important campaign.
-What? No, no, no.
I'm sure it's the campaign
my cousin is doing.
No, you should have told me.
Have you considered
that if you became a model,
you'd be able to pay for college?
That's what my cousin does.
She's the one who's a model.
I want to be a manager.
You should've told me,
we could've saved ourselves the trip.
Let's go.
You know what? Wait for me here.
Where are you going?
If you see Shaio,
tell her I sent you, okay?
Uh-huh.
[theme song plays]
MAINTENANCE
Sir, can I borrow the hose for a moment?
Yes, of course, ma'am.
[theme song continues playing]
[Moni] No, we did really well.
[Shaio] But the one he suggested
is missing something.
The one Berny suggested?
Oh, honey, give it all to me ♪
Don't be so mean
You're the death of me ♪
Hey! Hey, one second!
No. Don't leave. Don't leave.
Who are you?
Shaio said something
that started World War III.
Look, I don't know how you got here,
but I'm positive
you're the model we're looking for.
No, I don't think so.
Just let me take a couple photos.
That's all.
-Just a couple, okay? Come.
-Yes.
[Shaio] Hey, please.
It's just a couple photos.
It's for a registry, that's all. Okay?
[Kelly] No, no, no.
She's not doing any photos
or any casting because she's leaving.
[Nayibe] Kellycita, wait.
-[Nayibe] Wait.
-You know her?
What do you mean, wait?
[Kelly] What are you doing here?
Well, I didn't come here to take
any photos. I just came to rinse off.
Look at me.
[mockingly] Oh, she came to rinse off.
To strut around for them to see.
[Berny] What's this?
A wet T-shirt contest?
Why are you being so shitty?
What have I ever done to you?
Well, I haven't done anything, either.
I just came with Ángelo's friend.
Well, get going.
It's getting late, sweetie.
Well, I don't want to go.
-No?
-You're so arrogant.
And I'm sick
of everything being your fault,
that we're on the run because you killed
[Nayibe] No, no, no.
-Careful!
-[indistinct yelling]
[Nayibe] So sorry. Excuse us.
Um, this is all just a misunderstanding.
The girl doesn't want any photos,
right, baby? Tell them.
She doesn't want any.
She doesn't even like it.
Go home, we'll fix this.
Fix what?
Why leave when I haven't done anything?
[Nayibe] Look
do me a favor and go back to Caracas.
You know what it took
for Kelly to get here.
So stop it.
When she gets the job,
she'll help you out.
But go now, don't be silly, okay?
What do I have to do? I'm ready.
-Oh, Óscar.
-A couple photos.
Everyone, places.
[indistinct yelling]
Let me go!
You rat!
Shaio, I think we should wait a minute.
Edgar, I don't care
what you think right now.
That girl is a bombshell.
And I'm sure
I'm going to win the campaign.
-Yes, but I
