The Girl in the Mirror (2022) s01e09 Episode Script

A NETFLIX SERIES
[soft music playing]
[Nico] What's this?
- This here?
- Mmm-hmm.
This is the mark of my clan.
[Nico] And this?
This marks how many lives I've lived.
You're an old soul then.
Oh, I'm a very old soul.
I think I would like that.
What?
Living many lives.
- I'm not enjoying this one.
- No way.
Why not?
[man] You wouldn't like it.
What the fuck would you know?
Come on. No one's gonna miss me.
- Tell me what I need to do.
- Do you wanna know?
Yeah.
[whispering]
[scoffs] You're fucking crazy.
Well, it will require
a long time in solitude.
I think I'm going to miss you.
I will stay here forever.
If only you let me.
Right here.
[man] Living under your skin,
it would be a perfect disguise.
[foreboding music playing]
Will it hurt?
Oh, yes.
It hurts every time.
Do it.
Make me immortal.
Are you sure?
- [flames whooshing]
- [Nico screaming]
[menacing music playing]
[music fading]
[Tom] I have to kill her, you mean?
[Aurora] If you want to help her,
you need to push her body
almost to the point of her death.
That's the only way
that she can get her body back.
[ethereal music playing]
[Alma] This is the perfect spot.
The common point on all our maps.
I can't think of a better place.
Deva
when Tom first brought us to the island,
I said it made perfect sense
to give the island your name.
Inaccessible,
mysterious,
and a bit fucking crazy too.
We shared a lot of things together,
but I have the feeling that you left
without anyone really getting to know you,
that you still hold so many secrets.
So I've brought them back
with just this one certainty.
We all loved you, Deva.
You will always be with us.
[Lara] Come on, let's hold hands.
We can relive this moment as
many times as we need. It's not the end.
[somber music playing]
[Tom] No.
What is it?
This isn't a memory I want to have.
Lara asked
may we treasure beautiful moments.
And why can't a farewell be that?
You could try and say something.
She could be listening.
- Shut up.
- Deva loved you.
Which is why I never let us be together,
because I knew how she felt
and I didn't want to hurt her.
But also because you were leaving.
The real Ali knows that I would
never leave if she asked me to stay.
Aurora warned me
and now I know who you are.
How could you lie to me
Deva?
You've been manipulating me
from the beginning.
I didn't want to lie to you, Tom.
- I didn't know who I
- You saw Alma's ghost!
It's her ghost
that appeared the other night.
Aurora told me
what I needed to do to bring her back.
Are you planning to kill me?
I thought you had
become one of those shadows.
One of those demons.
And I would have done it.
But now I can't.
You were my friend, Deva.
[bittersweet music playing]
[eerie humming]
I'm sorry, Alma.
Forgive me.
I can't do it.
[expectant music playing]
[Efrén on recording] The shadows
need to possess five youths.
Only when the five
have been fully incarnated
can Therion finally be summoned
by gathering the five carvings
that represent the attributes
of their animal spirits.
The wisdom of the bear,
the strength of the lion,
the cunning of the wolf,
the freedom of the eagle,
and the snake's ability
to shed its own skin.
We aren't doing anything?
It's happening, Bruno.
- You can't pretend it's not.
- [phone vibrates]
MARTÍN MONTEAGUDO FOUND ALIVE
A PRIVATE RESCUE TEAM
LOCATES THE YOUTH IN A CAVE.
HIS PUBLIC REAPPEARANCE
IS EXPECTED AT THE TRIBUTE TO THE VICTIMS.
Martín will be at the memorial.
You have to warn him.
He's still in danger.
[somber music playing]
Hi, Deva.
I'm supposed to forget who I was
but you keep using my name.
Well, what should I call you?
- Do you mind?
- It's nothing I haven't seen already.
[Nico] Fine.
How are things going at home?
Your mother's gotta be happy
that you've recovered your memory.
I can't stand being there
after everything I've done.
I meant Lucía.
- You really are a fucking bitch.
- Don't say I didn't warn you.
You forget who you were
and the first place you go visit is
What are you, a stalker?
ALMA VISITS TOM
[Nico] Been following you
since the first day.
ALMA HOSPITAL
ALMA AND TOM AGAIN!
- Why?
- [Nico] To understand who you were.
And be sure you're protected.
And now that you know everything about me,
I gotta protect my identity.
Your little friend, Roque, I needed to
make sure that you two aren't in contact
or he'll find out what I am.
And if he does,
I'll have no choice but to run away.
With you or without.
You think I'd go anywhere with you?
I mean
Then why did you come?
I put myself in danger for you
and you're still treating me
like an enemy.
Why would Roque want to try and hurt me?
Because until now
you weren't a big priority in his agenda,
but at some point,
you're gonna be essential.
And then they'll come for you.
At that point, if not sooner,
they'll also come for me.
- Who will?
- You didn't answer my question.
What did you come here for?
I came here for
the same reason I always come.
So that I'm not alone.
I remember your salty taste.
- [somber music continues]
- [indistinct chatter]
[indistinct chatter continues]
[mic whines]
[man on mic] Let's take our seats, please.
The memorial is about to begin.
Tom, whenever you're ready.
When I was first asked
to say a few words about my classmates
I wanted to turn it down.
Nothing I could say
could make things better.
I've been to all of their funerals,
and all of them have been painful,
because any comforting words
for something so unfair and senseless
seemed wrong and false.
And dishonest.
A big lie.
Nothing hurts more than a lie.
The pain over the deaths of our friends,
students, family members,
has spread throughout the community.
Something dark has settled among us.
The memory of those we loved
was replaced by this false sadness.
Because the time
we spent together wasn't sad.
I figured the only thing I could do
was to give you the gift of the truth.
The real memory of each of them.
Telma had asked me for help editing
a video for the end-of-school party.
I thought it was lost,
but thanks to Bruno, here it is.
[projector whirring]
[on video] Guys, say hi for Insta!
[all] Hey!
[student] We're with the horses.
[Tom] It's the last day
that we're all together,
so it's a bit special.
[laughs] How could I not miss you?
I'm gonna miss you all a lot.
But we'll see each other around
and we'll still hang out.
Come on, this isn't over.
These days have been amazing.
I'm super bummed to say goodbye.
- [student] Guys, say hi.
- [all] Hi!
[student laughing] Everything's great.
If you had to leave a message
to your future self
to look back on ten years from now,
what would it be?
To go with the flow. Have my life.
Be more relaxed.
- [wistful music playing]
- [Deva] Okay.
If I could tell my future self
anything ten years from now, I'd say,
"Take care."
Love yourself more.
Have faith and stop living in fear.
[wistful music continues]
[student on video] Don't let anyone
look down on you ever.
Okay?
Remember how much vitality you have.
- Remember how hard you fight for things.
- [indistinct chatter on video]
Laura, are you happier now
than ten years ago?
I hope the answer is yes.
I have faith in myself.
Did you finally leave town
and go see the world?
How are your parents?
How are Grams and Gramps doing?
Are they both well?
Do they still have their animals?
[student] Alma, what would you ask
your future self ten years from now?
[Alma] I would ask her where she is.
Where she's gone and if she's at peace.
I'd ask if she's forgiven me already,
if she's changed,
if she's not a brat anymore,
if she's a better person than she was.
[student] To remember
to say thanks to his parents
for everything they've done for him.
And to make sure
they know how much you love them.
- [student 1] Hurry!
- [student 2] Come on!
Ready?
[all] Hey!
- [all laughing]
- [wistful music continues]
[music fading]
[Tom] I've uploaded the video
to the school website.
I hope that the next time
you're missing them all,
you can watch this and remember
how lucky we were to have met them.
There's something else.
Another lie has consumed our whole town.
Yesterday, I went to see Nieves.
She told me
she still had a message from Carlos.
She was worried that it was a farewell
and she didn't want to open it
fearing that if she listened to it,
Carlos would feel free to leave.
We listened to it together
and I asked her to send it to me.
Forgive me for this, Nieves.
[phone chimes]
[Carlos breathing raggedly on recording]
Honey, it's me.
We've been in an accident.
Something crossed the road.
There was so much fog.
I don't know where we are.
I can't move.
I can't get out to help the kids.
[Carlos groaning softly on recording]
I hope they get here quickly.
But, sweetheart, if they come,
they need to take me last.
These kids have their whole lives
ahead of them.
I'll wait and make sure
they get 'em all out.
If I don't make it back to your side
I want you to know I love you both.
I love you.
Tell Daniela that I wish
I could have seen her grow up.
[coughing and wheezing on recording]
I'm going to think of you two.
I'll dream by your side.
I love you so much, my sweet Nieves.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Thank you too.
Your father was a wonderful man.
Remember that, okay?
- I'm so proud of you, son.
- Thanks. Really.
[in tongues] Where are you? Answer me.
- Where are you? Answer me.

- [music fades]
[panting]
[eerie humming]
PLEASE ENTER SECURITY CODE
TELL ME WHEN YOU'VE DONE I
IT'S DONE. BOTH OF THEM WERE TOGETHER.
[in tongues] We'll have to hurry.
YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT.
MAYBE I SHOULD GO WITH YOU
[phone vibrating]
WHEN DO YOU WANT TO GO?
[phone chimes]
AS SOON AS I SORT OU
SOMETHING I LEFT UNFINISHED
WARNING! NO LIFEGUARD ON DUTY
[dramatic music playing]
- [keys clatter]
- [in English] Fuck!
- [engine starting]
- [dramatic music continues]
- [thud]
- [Nico mutters]
Come on, fuck!
Come on, fuck!
- [door opens]
- [gasps]
Ahh!
- [Roque] Hey, how are you?
- [indistinct chatter]
Hi, Roque.
[warbling]
Emilia.
How's Laura doing?
Still the same.
I think of you and it gives me hope.
And you shouldn't lose it, Emilia.
Laura's gonna live.
There's no doubt about it.
Emilia,
may I have a minute alone with her?
Course.
[menacing music playing softly]
[in tongues] Brothers, awaken.
[eerie humming]
[bell ringing]
[in English] I'm sorry for
what happened to your grandfather.
Where's Martín?
I need you to take off the patch.
I need to be sure.
Bruno.
Is this is your secret hideout?
The horrible place
you wanted to escape from?
I don't even know
how to start apologizing.
I've been losing my mind for days.
- Why not answer the phone?
- Because I thought I was still in danger.
I'm sorry about your grandfather.
You have to understand, we were so scared.
I've been so out of it.
My father was trying to protect me.
I thought you were one of those shadows.
Now I know that wasn't real.
It was all in my head.
And the things I saw with my own eyes?
Were those in your head too?
Martín, my grandfather's dead.
You haven't answer any of my calls.
You gave up on me without even seeing me.
- [angrily] You're a coward!
- You're not getting what I'm saying.
Look, we've said goodbye
too many times already.
- Please just spare me this one.
- Bruno
Bruno, please wait. Bruno.
Please don't go.
I was just scared. Please, Bruno.
- I'm so sorry.
- [somber music playing]
Are you all right?
[grunts softly]
[car starting]
NUBERU HOUSE
[sinister music playing]
- [mysterious music playing]
- [eerie humming]
[Román] I mean it.
Every day, it was the same thing.
- They'd go running around and
- [Pilar laughing]
[Román chuckling] I was wearing slippers,
so I couldn't, well, really do anything.
I was stuck on the porch
and you could hear it everywhere.
I mean, I didn't know
if it was the squirrel
that was making that crazy sound
or if it was just the little dog barking.
- [Román imitating dog yapping]
- [Pilar laughing]
What is it? You okay?
I have something that had been lost,
but I was able to find it.
Lara left these for the two of you.
She spent her final days working on it.
You should have gotten it a long time ago.
[sweet music playing]
I don't know if I broke it.
No, it's two maps.
One for each of you.
They can be joined or separated
in many different ways.
It's a map of memories.
A journey through all of the moments
and places that we shared with Lara.
This was her farewell then?
Not at all, actually.
This was her way of letting us see
that we can always find her.
In our memories.
Lara didn't want her disease
to be all-consuming or to transform her.
She didn't want that last image of her
to replace the memories that we had.
That's why she left.
She left to not disappear entirely.
So she could always be here.
So then you
Deva helped her.
And then she hid the maps.
She thought that once you got these,
then you'd know
that it had all been planned
and that she would
face the consequences for helping Lara.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
I'm so sorry you didn't get it
when Lara wanted you to have it.
What matters is that we have it now, hmm?
Thank you, sweetie.
- You said we could put them together.
- Yes.
How?
Like this.
- [sweet music continues]
- [Pilar exclaims softly]
[Román] Look.
It's a journey.
THE DAY WE ARRIVED HOME
"The roads to the end of the world."
- The cliff.
- [Pilar laughs softly]
[Román] Let's see
Sailing classes.
Giving names to the cows.
- [sweet music continues]
- [both crying]
[Alma crying]
[keypad clicking]
YOU DESERVE SOMEONE BETTER.
[phone buzzes]
DEVA
NEW MESSAGE
YOU DESERVE SOMEONE BETTER.
[Deva on video] Here we go.
- [singing softly]
- [playing simple melody]
[singing and playing continue]
You have to knock, you know that.
Get out.
[man on video] Why don't you
just keep playing?
[playing resumes on video]
I can't. You're making me nervous.
Is that song for me? Hmm?
- [Deva] Ricardo.
- [Ricardo] I love the way you tease me.
Ricardo, get out. I said leave.
[Ricardo] I think of you all day long.
I've seen how you look at me.
I know you want it.
- [Deva] Stop it.
- Mom doesn't have to find out, okay?
You know that Mom
doesn't have to find out. Shh.
- Shh. Calm down.
- Stop it!
- [video turns off]
- [sobs]
[discordant music playing]
You asshole.
[sobbing] Forgive me.
[narrator on TV] It can travel
up to 80 kilometers
in 24 hours in cold climates.
- [sobbing] It was all true!
- [indistinct chatter continues on TV]
[Lucía sobbing] It was true!
It was all real!
It was all true and I didn't believe her!
- Stop!
- I didn't believe my daughter!
- What are you doing?
- It was all true and I didn't believe her.
Give me that. Lucía
[indistinct chatter continues on TV]
- [objects clattering loudly]
- [Lucía and Ricardo fighting]
[Lucía yelling]
[intriguing music playing]
I don't know if you can hear me.
If Nico is telling the truth,
then you're trapped here now.
You're gonna be
stuck in this place forever.
[intriguing music continues]
I came to say goodbye
to you
and Lara.
To Tom,
to your parents.
I don't know if you could do that for me.
I, um
I've never loved anyone
as much as I loved you.
The thing I did for Lara,
and for you
was to take care of you.
I'm sorry.
Goodbye.

- [metal creaking]
[tense music playing]
- [menacing music playing]
- [dog barking]
[yelps softly]
[door slams]
[Ricardo] What's your game?
Where did you get her phone?
Deva didn't want me with Lucía.
I was seduced, she did it all.
So she could film me, blackmail me,
and force me to leave her mother.
She was a liar and a manipulator.
And you know it.
You're disgusting.
Who else has seen this video?
It's been sent to all her contacts.
You're screwed.
If I were you, I'd get out of here
as soon as I could.
If I scream,
my parents get here in seconds.
[grunting and screaming]
[screaming] Mom!
[groaning]
[struggling]
Son of a bitch!
Get off me!
Get off me!
[choking and gasping for air]
[Alma weakly] Help me.
No one will help you here.
No one can hear you.
- [eerie humming]
- [Ricardo grunting]
- Ahh!
- [groans loudly]
[eerie rasping]
[Deva yelling]
[peaceful music playing]
Ali.
Alma.
I'm so sorry.
I never meant to steal your life.
Everything happened
the way it was supposed to.
[Deva] I just wanted to protect you.
I didn't want to leave your side.
In the mountain.
[Lara] You had me.
It was you I came looking for.
Because you helped me.
Alma still has a lot to live for.
There's still life in her body.
We need to help her come back.
- [eerie humming]
- [peaceful music continues]
[peaceful music swelling]
I love you.
[hopeful music playing]
Save your strength.
They're almost here, okay?
I'll see you, Ali.
[Pilar] Alma!
Alma!
Ali.
Ali.
What happened?
Ali, sweetie, are you okay?
Oh, Mom.
[peaceful music playing]
I'm always by your side.
[tranquil music playing]
[chimes tinkling]
[bell ringing]
[Diana] May I?
So are you really
gonna let it end like this?
In a month, I'll be in Switzerland.
Before I know it,
I'll have forgotten this ever happened.
Important people
are never forgotten, Martín.
They become part of who we are.
Forever.
For your entire life, you've wanted
to be able to make your own decisions.
Now you can, but nothing will change?
Fix it.
It's in your hands, Martín.
And I only ask that you
don't make me regret doing this.
Go ahead.
[Diana laughs]
[sweet music playing]
[breathes deeply]
[Alma] Sometimes we go through things
that make us forget who we are.
When Lara got sick,
I became my own shadow.
I think that's the reason
Deva was able to do it.
I don't know.
Have you decided what to do?
It seems pretty selfish that my dad
would have to sacrifice it all for me.
Have to sell the sawmill and everything.
And after everything we've been through,
I'd be an idiot to leave you.
It's important to know who you are
and what you want to do.
To know your path.
Even if it's not marked on a map.
And you've always known that, Tom.
You shouldn't give up on that.
[sweet music continues]
Apparently, leaving makes you closer.
Go.
Go and fill your life with memories
and then share them.
And if we're meant to be together,
then we will be.
No matter how far away you are.
- It'll be a long time.
- And time doesn't matter.
[sweet music continues]
[wind chimes tinkling]
[expectant music playing]
ASK ME FOR WHAT YOU WAN
I'LL GIVE YOU ANOTHER LIFE
WE'LL BE TOGETHER FOREVER
SHE'S THE STRONGEST PERSON I KNOW
[Deva indistinctly] Alma
[Deva indistinctly] Deva
[mysterious music playing]
Why do I feel like this isn't over yet?
[Aurora] My dear
your journey has just begun.
But get some rest now.
You are home at last.
I've waited for this moment for centuries.
This is the flower of water.
My teacher gave it to me a long time ago.
Now you will help others
the same way that I've helped you.
Are you ready?
[majestic music playing]
[Martín] I spent such a long time
living in fear
that everything written here
would come true one day.
I've had to do terrible things
just to protect Martín.
Someday I'll be able to tell you,
but I just hope
you'll be able to forgive me.
Forgive me too, then, Dad.
I shouldn't have doubted you.
[majestic music continues]
Hey, you.
"A member of his own family
will send the chosen one
to the five shadows
so that Therion can be incarnated in him
during the third moon of the year"

Laura?
[eerie humming]
[menacing music playing]
[laughs dryly]
[menacing music continues]
Diana?
[Diana] Where are the carvings?
This isn't a three.
It's a six.
It's tonight's full moon.
We've been expecting you.
