[doorbell rings]
[upbeat music plays]
Uncle, come in, please.
Esteban, it's a pleasure to have you
at my place. Whiskey?
Of course. Please, come in.
-Dear Edgar.
-The famous Edgar.
Who invited this guy?
-How embarrassing.
-Your boyfriend, Nico, who else?
The night of the party crashers.
Who invited that criminal?
Who else?
[intriguing music]
Uncle, why won't you come to the party?
You have to come.
[upbeat music plays]
No, it doesn't matter
if it's Edgar the decorator or not.
Plus, you have no idea
about the commotion here, just for you.
[upbeat music plays]
[Óscar] Nico's uncle and candidate,
the eternal candidate.
[Óscar laughs]
The one who everyone thought
would be president.
He rushed to the party
to try and find his first lady.
[upbeat music continues]
-Come in.
-This is your famous mansion.
I knew you were a terrific decorator,
but this goes beyond all expectations.
I like fine things.
And there's money, good money.
Edgar, come here. Um
How much are we talking about?
How much is buried here?
Two million dollars?
[comedic music]
What? I haven't buried anything here.
What my uncle means
is how much money did you invest
in decorating this place?
Oh.
I've done the math,
it's quite a bit of money, yes.
But the interior design business
makes you more than politics.
I've worked hard, my friend.
Anyway, we're not here to talk
about decor or furniture, right?
[comedic music]
[Esteban] Excuse me.
[upbeat drum music plays]
-[Esteban] Good party.
-Yes.
-How are you?
-Very well.
Better now.
Uncle, this is Andrea Vanessa,
one of our Klass 95 models.
I'd say she's probably one
of the country's most promising models.
You're a babe, my God.
Nico said you were stunning, but
Nico is a little liar.
You can never trust him.
Wait a second, what are you doing?
-Let go of me. What's wrong with you?
-Easy.
-What's this?
-Easy.
I guess he also told you
that she's been swamped
and can't talk to politicians.
How come she doesn't have time?
I even showered to come here.
Yes, she's swamped.
Uncle, come here, please.
Oh my.
Uncle, don't act desperate.
-You'll scare them all away!
-No way!
They're dying to be with me.
The thing is, Nico,
I can't just date anybody,
because when you least expect it
-"I'll be at Nariño's place"
-Uh-huh.
"and I can't be
with someone who's ugly,
or especially someone
who's not up to par."
I like that you learned the lesson.
So, what about all these women?
Friends of the designer? All of them?
Hey, did you notice
that all the women here
are the same models who did the casting
-for our campaign?
-[Laura] Shit.
Yes, I knew I had seen them already, but
I didn't notice.
Can you tell me how they got here?
No clue.
Even if I tried,
I couldn't have gathered them all.
[Shaio] They didn't just gather them.
This is super strange.
They're dressed up, makeup on
And they were trained.
According to Elver,
not a single man could be alone
for a single moment that night.
Neither sad nor bored,
nor without a drink.
These women were paid
sums they had never seen before.
Who gave the models' contacts to Edgar?
His partner. Nayibe.
[suspenseful music]
But Nayibe wasn't at the casting.
Not on that day,
but she went to the photo shoot.
[indistinct chatter]
[Nayibe] So pretty, yes.
Okay, come.
[suspenseful music]
[Agustín] That's great.
Good. Next. Thank you.
[Juanita] Edgar ordered Nayibe
to break into Elenita's office
and steal all the models' information
in the most ingenious way.
Their names, numbers, everything.
[tense music]
She kept everything in an agenda,
do you remember?
I thought she slept with it.
-Wow!
-Is it gone?
Mm-mm.
-I told you to get two bottles.
-Hmm
Perhaps you have something at home.
I'll check.
[comedic music]
What is it?
-I haven't been to that place in a while.
-You're scared?
I'll come with you.
No way, scared?
What are you talking about?
You're talking to a man.
I'll be right back.
[comedic music]
[tense music]
[tense music continues]
[thud]
[thud]
What happened with the paper
that Shaio signed for Edgar?
[sighs] Yes.
-Well
-Here, I'll open it.
-Oh!
-Tell me.
She heard Laura didn't get it
and rushed over to confront him.
And to tell him the truth.
If he insisted on being a partner
at the agency, it was a lost cause.
-Hmm.
-She was begging to get that back.
That she would be indebted to him.
In other words,
she was willing to do anything.
Hold me here, tight.
[upbeat music plays]
Turn.
Turn now.
-That's it!
-[woman laughs]
Do you like to dance?
Are you, perhaps, hungry?
What do you feel like?
What do you want?
Maybe some roasted chicken?
Maybe some empanadas?
Or?
Hey, this is getting out of control.
I knew it.
-Get whatever you want, it's on me.
-I'm not hungry. Thanks.
No? That's good.
It doesn't have to be today.
It could be any day.
I said no already.
[laughs]
Is dancing what you like?
Let's be honest.
Have you been to Cartagena?
-Ever been to the sea? Do you want to go?
-Look, I don't know who you are.
But I never needed a father,
especially now that I have money.
Andrea Vanessa? Do you have a minute?
-Unbelievable.
-Here.
That was rough. Hey!
But sexy.
[comedic music]
Edgar, come here.
Edgar, come.
I don't know how
or what you'll come up with,
but I need to get a date with that woman.
Ask me for anything.
Tell me what you need.
But get it.
-[tense musical sting]
-Ask me for anything.
Count on it.
-[upbeat music plays]
-[Esteban laughs]
Here, let me show you something.
But don't worry about that. One second.
Edgar, do you have a minute?
In a second. I'll be right back.
[tense music]
[Óscar] Imagine how happy Edgar was.
He's spent his whole life
trying to be noticed.
Then a guy like Esteban
greets him by his name.
And it only took one,
one night full of women
and getting rejected by Andrea Vanessa
to have Esteban in the palm of his hand.
What happened in the bathroom
that night also helped.
[suspenseful music]
There's your consul, Edgar. [laughs]
What?
Do I bring him in and settle the score?
Wait.
[tense music]
Oh, this man has a love for sniffing.
Don't bother the consul, Elver.
Stay. Don't say a word to him.
The consul already knows.
He'll never give you a visa like that.
Now the visa doesn't matter.
[tense music continues]
Not a word.
You hear?
How about that? Did you hear
how arrogantly she talked to me?
-To me.
-Right.
The future president of this country.
Huh? Who does she think she is?
You'll make sure I go out with her.
Yes, count on it.
-I'll have her eating out of my hand.
-That's right, eating.
Wait, eating? Eating from what?
-From what?
-Your hand.
I saw her first, asshole.
[scoffs] Incredible.
[upbeat music plays]
Edgar, I need to speak to you,
it's urgent.
I can't right now.
I have an announcement to make
-about our agency.
-No. It's just
That's exactly
what I need to talk to you about.
You're not,
and won't ever be a partner at the agency.
Otherwise
that agency won't exist.
[tense music]
Edgar. Ed
I have an announcement.
Good evening, everybody.
-I need your help.
-No, I'm in a business meeting here.
-I need you.
-Honey, I'm in a meeting.
-We're screwed.
-[Edgar] An important announcement.
-What is it?
-If you want to help me,
don't let him make that announcement.
-But why?
-Quickly!
Brandon, my friend,
how is Colombia treating you?
Edgar, is he taking care of you?
Are you enjoying yourself?
You're about to enjoy more,
because a party isn't a party in Colombia
without doing the train.
Yes!
Right, Laura?
You're the host, you have to go first.
-Right, Laura?
-Yes!
Put music on!
The train is super important at a party.
The train, Edgar?
The train, man.
[all scream, cheer]
[upbeat music plays]
[all cheer]
The train couldn't stop it.
Edgar kept talking
and he made the announcement.
[upbeat music plays]
[all whistle, cheer]
[Berny] Great!
Nice!
Congratulations. Great train.
[Berny] That's it!
And now, the announcement.
[tense music]
I want you all to know
that I'm very happy to have you all here.
Especially [in English] You!
Brandon, my friend, my brother.
[in Spanish] This is for you.
Edgar, why bother with formalities?
Edgar, let's keep partying.
Let's party!
[all cheer]
Even though I'm happy that you're here,
I have to be very honest
because you have to know the truth.
[tense music]
-[Laura] Edgar
-The truth is that
I am not and will never be
a partner in this agency.
Edgar, those are big words!
[tense music]
I had a previous conversation with Shaio.
But I found out later
that you had a previous agreement
and I wanted to honor it.
I wanted to clear all this up,
but don't think you'll get rid of me
so easily, ladies.
No.
No.
Because from now on,
I'm the official sponsor of Klass.
[Laura laughs]
I wanted to clear that up,
and to not affect
this baby that is being born.
A success.
[Edgar] Keep enjoying the party,
the bar is open.
Cheers!
[all cheer]
["Una Mirada Tú" by Bananas plays]
With your left hand.
[in English] Music!
[in Spanish] Come here, consul.
Let's dance!
Let's get this party started, bro!
Hey!
-I'm so confused.
-Me too. Let's toast.
I admire you, buddy. That's it!
Hey!
[woman] It's hot!
[Berny] Good!
[Laura] Cheers!
["Una Mirada Tú" by Bananas continues]
[indistinct chatter]
Vanessa. Will you have a glass?
Come on. Take it.
Look at that poor man.
All alone,
on a bitter path and depressed.
-Dance with him. Is it too much?
-You know what?
Tell him to find a forest and get lost.
I'm done and I want to take my shoes off.
He's a presidential candidate,
you're missing your chance.
You shouldn't say no to a man like that.
He's a great catch.
Vanessita.
That agency is going to be a success.
All you need is real love. That's it.
-And here it is.
-No, Nicolás is here.
Where's that future husband
who is nowhere to be seen?
He doesn't even care
on the most important day. No way.
He's busy with his uncle.
He can marry his uncle then.
That's it.
-Oh!
-What is it?
-Are you okay?
-[groans] My heel broke.
-Are you okay?
-I'm fine, nothing happened.
[Brandon] Okay. What happened?
Let's toast to my adorable partners.
Let's toast.
Where is?
-Lau.
-[Laura] I'm coming!
Oh, be careful.
We're
about to make a toast to Klass 95,
and to beauty pains.
-Cheers.
-Cheers.
Cheers!
It'll be a success.
-It'll be a success.
-A success!
[all cheer]
All right, come on, let's dance.
[Juanita] I don't know
why Edgar changed his mind.
That's because he discovered
the new El Dorado that night.
Having an idiot like that criminal,
a guy who was supposed
to become president,
begging him to help him
get a date with Andrea Vanessa
made him realize that partnering
with the Domínguezes wasn't necessary.
No?
So?
He had to partner up with the owner
of the models' agenda.
Nayibe.
Being close to those gorgeous women
gave him power.
Of course.
So Nayibe had the oil?
Not only that.
She was Kelly's mom,
Andrea Vanessa's aunt.
She was already part of the agency.
She had the names of all the models
they had and future ones.
Oh, one more thing.
Edgar knew Nayibe was one of his own.
[upbeat music plays]
[woman cheers]
[indistinct chatter]
[Óscar] The agency began that day.
As well as the other one.
The one they were building
with Nayibe's agenda.
[tense music]
A shadow agency.
One that wasn't planned,
but that was here to stay.
[intriguing music]
Hey, I love the concept, Edgar,
everything.
When will you help me
decorate my apartment?
But with all the bells and whistles
I see here.
Hmm?
Whenever you want, Esteban.
Next week, I'll stop by your shop,
we'll do some numbers
and then we can also finalize
that little pending business.
Vanessa.
[comedic music]
I have a friend
who has all the money in the world
and who just bought an apartment that is
huge! And you know what?
She needs a lot of furniture.
Lots of furniture.
[tense music]
I'm sorry.
You know, for not being able to do
what you asked for with the gringos.
No, dear Kelly.
You have nothing to be sorry for,
this night went perfectly.
Perfectly?
You're not a partner anymore, so?
Not being a partner
doesn't mean you won't continue
at the agency.
Or that you and I
won't keep doing things together.
We already get along so wonderfully,
you know?
Yes.
[dramatic music]
Just keep behaving
and I'll be even nicer to you.
Partners?
Partners.
Listen, rest up tomorrow
and buy anything you want.
I'll ask Elver to take you.
Okay?
-Thanks.
-No, you're welcome.
-Rest well.
-Elver.
Take Miss Kelly home.
Miss Kelly.
Rest well.
Bye.
Hey, I almost sliced my foot open.
I want to leave now, please.
That's terrible.
I'm glad you didn't,
the party would've been ruined.
We're so lucky.
I mean, we've been so very lucky.
Can you do me a favor?
Pour me another one?
-Or two. Do you want one?
-[in English] Sure.
-[in Spanish] But honey
-Bye.
[Brandon] Don't worry.
[Nico] Honey, I'll see you at home.
[Nico] Hey, Teach.
Stop drooling.
Can you get me a drink instead?
Huh? A scotch.
Can you get me a drink too, please?
-Give me that.
-Sure. Thanks.
I'll refill it.
He's a physical education teacher
at the gym.
-He does weightlifting and all that.
-[in English] Like PE?
-Physical Education?
-[in Spanish] But in school.
-In school or I don't know.
-Okay.
-Enjoy.
-Thanks.
All right, cheers.
Come on, dude. The kitchen is that way.
[suspenseful music]
[music turns comedic]
[comedic music continues]
[Shaio] Yes, it went great, Mom.
But can I tell you tomorrow?
I'm exhausted.
[gasps]
No, put me down.
-Put me down, please. [moans]
-Okay.
Whatever you say.
[sighs] Oh, are you for real?
[moans]
[romantic music]
No, no.
My mom is here and she's awake.
If she finds out, she'll kill me.
Then don't talk so loud
so she doesn't hear us.
Do you really think
I'm going to miss my chance
to be here with you?
[moaning]
[whispers] Oh, please no.
Do you realize that
you achieved almost everything tonight?
A fantastic campaign.
You signed the partner.
And above all you have me.
Here.
[romantic music continues]
[sighing, moaning]
Oh, no, please.
-Please don't do this.
-What's wrong?
Shaio.
[suspenseful music]
Did Laura stay here?
Mom, um Yes, but she stayed
to see everyone off.
I don't think she'll be long.
[whispers] Berny, no. Hey.
I'm going to shower!
[suspenseful music continues]
[emotional music]
[both chuckle]
Well, these girls didn't make it,
and honestly,
I'm dying to get some rest.
I'm going on a bike ride early tomorrow.
So I think I'm going to go to bed.
I can wake up energized tomorrow.
Thank you so much
for staying up with me so late.
They won't be long.
It's nothing.
Because you didn't want to.
[emotional music continues]
See you tomorrow.
-What? What happened?
-Nothing.
-What did I do?
-I mean, nothing.
Um
Sweet dreams.
Please, I'm serious. Go.
[heavy breathing]
I don't think you really want me to go.
Seriously, can't you see
that no matter how much we try,
we can't be apart?
Hmm?
I'm getting married.
No.
No, you're not marrying that fool.
Shaio, please. Look at you.
[romantic music]
You're too good of a woman for that guy.
And I can't stop thinking about you.
And wanting you even just
a little bit ever since you left.
Not one bit, you know?
No. A lot of time passed
and we never saw each other, and
We didn't because I couldn't travel.
Otherwise
trust me, this would be a different story.
Travel?
To see you. To get to you.
To tell you that
I don't care.
I'm capable of doing anything for you.
I swear. Anything.
[romantic music continues]
Why didn't you ever do it?
Why didn't you ever look for me?
Because Nico, that fool, framed me.
And I couldn't get the visa.
You have no idea
how hard it's been for me
to get over this.
Now that you're here,
and I can look into your eyes,
I can kiss you, touch you, feel you,
I swear I won't ever let them
separate us again. You'll see.
[romantic music intensifies]
[door opens]
Honey.
-[Laura] Hi.
-How did it go?
Your sister came home and went
in the shower, she didn't say anything.
Mom, it was crazy.
You won't believe it,
but Edgar didn't ruin anything.
-Oh, thank God.
-And Brandon is happy with us.
Oh, honey, that's great.
I'm so glad. I'm going to bed.
I'll heat up some water
-for my feet
-Go ahead, sweetie.
[tense music]
-Please, you have to go.
-I'll go, don't worry.
Easy, it's all right.
But you have to promise me one thing.
-Shh!
-That we'll meet tomorrow.
-Otherwise, I'm going to
-Yes. I said yes.
[suspenseful music]
[whispers] Go.
-Hold on.
-What?
[whispers] Okay, let's go.
[whispers] Bye.
-Bye.
-Bye-bye.
-Bye.
-I'll really miss you.
I love you.
Bye.
Bye.
[suspenseful music continues]
[Paulina] Shaio.
I need to talk to you
as soon as you wake up.
So don't leave.
Yes, ma'am.
See you tomorrow.
What could it be?
[emotional music]
[sighs]
-Oh, it looks like it's done.
-[sighs]
[chuckles]
The last toast.
There's nothing left.
Oh.
I don't think I need more.
Oh, really?
[romantic music]
[telephone rings]
Oh.
[telephone rings]
-Good evening.
-[man] Good evening, madam.
I wanted to let you know that Mr. Óscar
left his apartment door unlocked.
Oh, okay. Very well, thank you.
Óscar.
Mm-hmm.
Did you leave
your apartment door unlocked?
I'm sure I locked it.
[tense music]
[Óscar screams]
Shit, they're looking for me.
They won't find you in those drawers.
They're looking for something.
[Kelly] Show me the agenda
or you'll disappear.
Your choice. Kisses, Kelly.
They left you a note.
What agenda?
Well, the agency's. Which other one?
What?
You know what? Pack your stuff.
Get a suitcase and pack it quickly.
We have to leave right away.
[soft piano music]
[Joaquín] The cancer spread.
It's metastasized.
I don't think there's much we can do.
[exhales]
[Shaio] What could Mom want?
[Laura] I have no idea.
I have a feeling she noticed
Berny leaving your room
last night after showering.
-I think they'll disinherit you.
-She would've done that last night.
No?
-I don't know.
-No, I don't think that's it.
-What else?
-[sighs]
Hey, Shaio
Stop it, okay?
-What?
-Stop fixing yourself up.
Anybody can see that you went
to bed right after the shower
-and right after
-Enough, shush.
What is going on?
-That's all I'm going to say.
-All right.
I'm leaving, this is your issue.
No, where are you going? Sit down.
Didn't you hear Mom?
She clearly said both of us.
[doorbell rings]
[Joaquín] That must be Nico.
Tell him to come in, I'm coming.
-Shit.
-Nicolás?
-They'll rat you out, Shaio.
-No.
-They'll tell Nico everything.
-Laura, grow up, seriously.
Oh, but poor Nicolás.
His plans are once again ruined.
I'll get the door.
Oh.
-[Laura laughs]
-[Shaio sighs]
Guess what I remembered.
You used to be so good
at prayer in school.
"Water of Christ, wash over me.
Passion of Christ, cleanse me."
-What are you? Shut up.
-[laughs]
-Hey!
-Ow!
[door closes]
[melancholic music]
[Joaquín] Hopefully,
they'll find a treatment
to buy some time.
It must be incorrect.
[Laura] Dad, I think
you should find a second option.
I know Juanpa's father,
he's the best oncologist in the country.
That's the second option.
That's why we agreed with the doctor
that it's best to go to the US.
And look for a better treatment there.
And try to prolong things a little more.
Well, then I'm coming with you.
[Joaquín] No, no way.
Honey, that won't change the situation,
or improve my health.
On the contrary, if you go to Miami,
you'll have to cancel
what you're doing at the agency.
That's something that I'm proud of.
I won't be the one to cause a failure.
[sniffles]
[melancholic music continues]
So when are you leaving, Dad?
If we sort everything out
in two or three weeks.
-When will you be back?
-[Joaquín] I don't know.
I mean, everything could go well in Miami,
but it could get complicated, too.
Terribly so.
That's why I need
a special favor from you.
You know I'd do anything for you.
Move the wedding date up.
[tense music]
That's something I would not
want to miss in my life.
If I don't walk you down the aisle,
that'll really be the death of me.
No, don't worry.
We'll move it up. Tomorrow, if necessary.
We'll do it low-key, it's okay,
but we'll get married.
Didn't you hear what I said?
I don't want to miss it for anything,
Nicolás.
I'm walking my daughter down the aisle.
-Is that so hard to understand?
-No, sir.
No, wait a second
I want to travel with you.
I truly want to.
The wedding isn't important.
You have to get better.
Everything else can wait.
Honey, I don't think you understand.
This is your dad's wish.
[melancholic music]
You'll marry Nico.
You'll marry soon.
Your dad will walk you down the aisle.
No arguing.
Understood.
[Nico sniffles]
No matter what happens,
you can count on me, okay?
Besides, I'm sure your dad will help us
and I'll give you everything you deserve.
I'll treat you like a queen.
Oh, Nico.
Are you going to start with that
after what we just heard?
No, honey, I'm sorry.
I just got excited.
Don't you see?
We're going to get married.
Finally. Soon.
You and I forever.
Forever.
[tense music]
Yes, I know how you feel.
We're all feeling the same about the news.
We're processing it.
I am dying inside. This is a living hell.
But I'm sure
that we'll overcome this together
as a family.
Which is what we are.
A family, okay?
Nico, please go now.
-Okay, honey.
-I don't want anything.
-Get some rest.
-[sighs]
[emotional music]
-[Berny] Hi!
-[Shaio] Shit!
Berny!
-[laughs] How are you? Good morning!
-Oh, you scared me!
What are you doing here?
We said we'd meet,
so I decided not to leave
and I stayed right here.
I can't believe that
we'll finally start a life together,
-it's us against the world.
-Stop.
Please, stop for a second.
We can't do this anymore.
[emotional music]
We can't be together.
This is already over.
What are you saying?
The best is just about to begin.
No.
The worst is about to begin.
My dad is dying.
He just told us and
[sighs] He asked me
to move up the wedding
because he wants to be there.
He wants to see me get married to him.
There's nothing we can do.
Please. Please.
I'm so sorry to hear
you just learned that. But you know
I'll be here for you.
-We can handle this together.
-You're not listening.
We can't keep doing this, it can't go on.
This is the end, the end of the mission.
Get out and close the door, please, Berny.
Don't make it harder for me.
Don't touch me.
Don't look for me, don't come close.
Please leave.
No, wait a second.
-Oh, please.
-Shaio, wait.
-Shaio, please. Come on.
-Please, I beg you, go away.
Are you really going to let them
do this to us again?
-They want to separate us.
-What are you saying?
What are you talking about, Berny?
Look, I don't know who saw me
leave your place last night.
I guess your mom or whoever.
But they're doing this to keep us away
from each other, don't you see?
Are you saying that my dad
is making up his illness?
No, I'm not saying that.
He's forcing you to marry
to keep you away from me.
It doesn't matter who saw you,
if it was my mom or someone else.
He's my dad, it's his last wish.
I can't do anything.
Wait, you still can.
You have to stand up for yourself.
Show them what you're made of.
I'm sorry, but
you can't be unhappy for the rest
of your life just to please your dad.
-It's not fair to you.
-Listen.
[sniffles]
This isn't about being fair.
Did you forget
what you told me last night?
[Shaio] Everything will be different now,
I told you.
And people will have to understand
that it's you and me now.
