45 Revoluciones (2019) s01e13 Episode Script
The Last Song
NETFLIX PRESENTS We were about to be absorbed by Eugenio Vidal.
Which would've meant losing our jobs, but that didn't happen, and here we are.
- When will you tell him? - I don't know.
The only reason they gave Guillermo the loan is because you're the guarantee.
The future depends on you.
- Who are they? - He's Fraga's right hand man.
We want to use the festival's huge impact to convey a positive image of Spain.
We want you to present a candidate this year.
We're on it.
We want to use the occasion to present a new image of Fanny.
We have no objection to the girl being in the contest, but we want the boy, Robert.
What would happen is Robert's career didn't go well? Robert is the collateral.
If his career went badly it'd all go to hell.
Guillermo couldn't handle the debt and bye-bye Golden and Futura.
What if no one likes the new Fanny? How could they not? To me you've always been the prettiest girl in the world.
Every time I saw you in magazines I'd gaze at you, spellbound.
Today you kissed the hand of Franco's wife.
What will the kids who listen to your music think now, those who've confronted their parents to try to be free? You know what you said to those kids today? You have to bow your head and look the other way.
Carmencita has stressed that she'd love it if Robert won the competition.
And the Generalissimo couldn't refuse his granddaughter's wishes.
So it's rigged from the start.
Tonight, on Music Carousel, we'll find out who has the honor of representing us in the final.
Do you know why I never sang again? It reminded me of you, of us, of how much I loved you.
I thought that after so many years it was all dead and buried.
Robert, you have to calm down.
I don't want to calm down, I don't want to win the contest.
I don't want a photo with Carmencita or do interviews praising the Regime.
You know I think the same, and I know how hard this is for you, but you're going onstage with Los Truenos and doing the best concert of your life.
The artist who is to represent Spain in the next Eurovision is José Guardiola.
Excuse me, this isn't what we agreed on.
We're not taking a cretin to Eurovision who doesn't respect the Generalísimo or his country.
Or do you deny what you said? As of today, you'll find out how you do with the Regime against you.
- What? - We're banning you in the press, - radio and television.
- That's a little Your career is over, kid.
- Have you seen Robert? - No.
Didn't he sleep with you? - No, that's why I asked you.
- He didn't come home.
- Guys, have you seen Robert? - No.
No one's admitted with that name.
I don't know what's going on, but it must be serious.
I'm Guillermo, you can trust me.
Calm down.
What's wrong? - We didn't what became of you.
- I just needed to be alone.
- Maribel is overwhelmed.
- Where is she? With Guillermo, talking.
45 REVOLUTIONS Are you sick? Yes.
Are you dying? Fuck Since when have you known? Since I came to Madrid and sneaked into the Price.
- That's why we met.
- No, stop, Robert.
Don't tell me this shit has a bright side.
Put yourself in my place.
Why didn't you say anything? I tried loads of time, but I didn't know how.
By opening your mouth and telling the truth! It's not that hard.
I could've helped you, found a doctor, an expert to help you before it's too late.
Would you have signed me? Would you have made an album? - Kid, who am I? - Bullshit, Guillermo.
Of course I would've.
You would've patted me on the back, wished me luck, and we would've gone our separate ways.
I know I've been selfish, okay? But it was my only chance.
In all this time you never had the balls to say "Guillermo, this is happening to me.
" After signing, after recording the first single and album, after organizing a tour that could've killed you.
Shit, Robert I didn't want you pitying me.
Is that so bad? Yes, it is.
It's bad because you're dying and you shut me out, you both shut me out.
I don't get it, we're supposed to be a team and take decisions together.
Together.
Now I understand Sonora, I understand Eurovision.
I'm an asshole! I don't understand why you didn't trust me, because I've busted a gut for you, and you've lied to me all this time to my fucking face.
Let's calm down a little and talk this over, okay? Please, Guillermo.
Guillermo, don't go.
Please.
Guillermo, what's wrong? Guillermo, please, have you gone mad? What's wrong, Guillermo? What's wrong? Rosi, Juan, pick this up, please.
Let's go somewhere quiet.
The credit's linked exclusively to Robert's profits, right? The kid's dying, okay, Zabala? He's dying.
Can we talk for 5 minutes about something besides money, please? I understand the situation.
He's your artist and I'm really sorry, but honestly, I care much more about the future of my wife and son and all the people working here.
I don't know if you realize the trouble we're in, so I'll ask you again.
Is the credit linked exclusively to Robert's profits? Fuck! Then excuse me for having a drink with you, but I need it to take this in.
Look, I know you're right, we have to think about all this, but I don't know how to cope with this.
My head's racing, I don't know what to do.
- How is he? - Fucking great, fucking great.
How has he been all these months? I have no idea.
No idea.
Fuck I didn't even ask him.
Go home and rest.
You have to get this straight, you can't work like this, I'll look after the business.
- What are you going to do? - I don't know, frankly.
But I'll think of something.
Really, go and rest.
Listen, Zabala Guillermo, you'd do the same thing for me, right? What a blow.
Poor kid.
And instead of consoling him, asking how he is, I went at him for lying.
I'm an asshole, damn it.
Come on, take it easy.
Just apologize tomorrow.
Why don't you go home and get some rest? I don't want to.
You know what I want.
That's why I'm saying it.
- Pour me one, Tino.
- No.
Do you know why not? Because it won't be one.
One will follow another and another and - Pour me a drink, damn it! - No, I won't.
If you want to screw up your life, do it on your own.
- Right.
- But count me out.
Fuck! Fuck! Can I come in? Pedro told me everything.
How are you? Well, I've been better.
Why have you come, Ãngeles? I really don't know.
Sure you don't have anything stronger to drink? I don't know, I needed some air.
For some time things haven't been going well.
Pedro spends almost all day at the office and when he comes home we shout at each other all night.
I'm sorry, but I don't know what I can do.
You already did it.
I know I shouldn't be here, but since the kiss yesterday I can't think of anything else.
Ãngeles, if you stay we'll hurt the people we care about most and we'll regret it.
If only it were like this when we were together.
We never would've split up.
- Good morning, José Antonio.
- Good morning, Mr.
Rojas.
- How are you? - Fine.
And you? Well, we've been better.
Look, I'll tell you.
Have you ever had the feeling of being about to get everything you want and suddenly, it vanishes before your eyes? No? Good for you then.
- How's the press today? - Hot.
Do you want one? Go on.
SPANISH MUSIC STAR SERIOUSLY ILL What the hell is this? Please, don't start.
The meeting's over.
- How did this get in the press? - What do you think? So it was you.
I'll smash your face, bastard! Sure.
It was the only way to spin the story in our favor.
How the hell will you spin it in our favor? First, it'll boost album sales.
Second, we can kneel and beg to get the ban lifted and look at our options.
Maybe the kid can do his final concerts and cover part of the loan.
So that's it.
Making money from Robert's illness.
- You can't get any lower! - Yes, you can! You can beg in the street and sleep in the fucking park! - Fuck that! Where are you going? - To work to save this company.
You've crossed a line! Guillermo, I'm asking you, please Something has to be done, and now.
Do you have a better idea? I'm all ears.
You'd be doing me a favor.
Mr.
Zabala, excuse me.
- Have they arrived yet? - Yes, they're in the meeting room.
- Let's go.
- Go where? Guillermo, we need them to take the ban off us.
We have to swallow our pride.
The Vice-Minister is waiting.
- Fucking hell.
- It's the only way to save this.
- Fuck, Zabala.
- I'm begging you.
Give me a minute.
One minute.
We first want to apologize for Robert's words on the Regime.
It doesn't reflect the philosophy of this company, right? Anyway, we want you to understand the situation.
Robert was very ill and that's a tragedy, but especially for him.
Where is the boy in question? We were expecting to see him and get a personal apology.
Of course, but he's in the clinic getting all kinds of tests.
We're trying to reverse this situation, God willing.
He wanted to be here, but we said health comes first.
Country comes first.
Country first, then health, that's what I meant to say.
I want you to understand that when Robert said that, he'd just received the diagnosis.
In these situations one doesn't think, but he's very sorry and told us this so that we'd tell you, right, Guillermo? - Eh? - No.
What's that? He's not sorry.
Nor will he be.
Guillermo, can we talk about this for a moment? Look, Pedro, some time ago I asked Robert: "Hey, what's rock and roll to you "? Robert pulled out a cigarette and said: "This is rock and roll.
" I started Futura in order to work differently, with no one telling me how to do things, not even you.
If this is your way of trying to lift the ban on your artist, - it's looking bad for you.
- You still don't get it.
No one's stopping this.
Not your yelling, your threats, your censorship, your confiscation of records, or your bans.
Robert's music will be alive long after you've disappeared and there's nothing you can do to stop it.
Please, I'm begging you.
Guillermo Piss off.
Let's go.
Alright then.
- So that's rock and roll? - Yes, sir.
- What did the Vice-Minister say? - Baldie was struck dumb.
They won't lift the ban.
I'll be lucky if they don't send me the cops.
And the future of Futura and Golden? I have no idea, really.
But we can be proud, the three of us have made history.
Don't you ever forget it.
I wouldn't change it for anything.
Me neither.
Listen, Robert, about yesterday I didn't know how to take it, okay? I don't know how to now, actually.
- But forgive me.
- No, I have to apologize.
When we met I said we were going to do great things together and that I'd be there till the end.
We've done the first, okay? And as for the second I'm here for whatever you need.
Don't cry, hey.
Don't cry.
Thanks for everything.
Alright - Fuck, I have to go.
- Go where? I'm meeting the guys.
See you tomorrow.
Robert, are you alright? - Of course I am.
- Are you sure? Leave him, he's got a lot on his plate.
Maribel Guillermo Look, if we have to go down, we should do it in style.
How about we hold a farewell concert? Come on, guys, it's starting.
Come on, come in.
Come on.
Up you go.
Up, we'll be late.
Hi, girls.
- Hi.
- Hi.
See you later.
Come on.
If I may - Ready? - Since I was a kid.
That's the way.
- It's time, guys.
- Come on.
Come on, go.
Hands, eyes This show is going to be epic, epic! One, two, three rock and roll! Go, knock 'em dead.
What's up, Madrid? Now I understand Sonora, I understand Eurovision.
I'm an asshole! I don't understand why you didn't trust me, because I've busted a gut for you, and you've lied to me all this time to my fucking face.
Let's calm down a little and talk this over, okay? - Please, Guillermo.
- I'm out of here.
Please.
I'm sorry.
What did you want me to do? He had to find out sooner or later.
To wait for me to talk to Guillermo.
It's my life, my decision, you had no right.
And you had a right to vanish like that? I've been looking for you, nobody knew where you were.
Guillermo, please, have you gone mad? What's wrong, Guillermo? Are you alright? Guillermo, please.
Rosi, Juan, pick that up, please.
Come with me.
Let's go somewhere quiet.
I'm sorry I worried you.
I wasn't worried, I was terrified.
I thought you were dead.
- Maribel.
Zip me up, please.
- You're going out? Yes.
I'm meeting some girlfriends I haven't seen for ages.
They were widowed and we lost touch.
Now, I'm almost a widow too - Mom, don't be crude.
- It was a joke.
- Thanks.
- I like seeing you like this.
How? In evening dress? Joking, meeting friends, living your life.
Sometimes you have to follow the advice of people who love you, even though it's hard to hear.
- By the way, how's Robert? - Good.
We argued a little, but Look, I've never understood this mulish obsession with work, but now I'm proud of everything you've done on your own.
Even if Robert's a good boy, nice, handsome, I don't want any man to determine your life.
And much less wipe that lovely smile off your face.
Promise me? - Yes.
- I learned very late.
- Mom - I left you dinner in the kitchen.
- Mom - Who knows when I'll be home tonight? - Are you alright? - Yes, yes.
I'm fine.
Go to your widows, they'll be waiting for you.
Maribel, Maribel, wake up.
Look.
Have you seen this? ROBERT, SPANISH MUSICIAN, TERMINALLY ILL - How did they find out? - Is it true? Oh, my girl.
Maribel.
- What a surprise, Diego.
- Hello, Elisa.
Is Maribel in? Yes, but it's not a good time, Diego.
- It's a bit - Mom, leave us alone a moment.
Yes, of course.
I was going shopping.
- How are you? - What do you think? Did you know about all this? Yes, but I couldn't say anything, I'm sorry, Diego.
Maribel, I know it's a tough time, okay? It's a tricky time for everyone, for me as well.
I helped you get the loan, I did you another favor.
I had to answer to my bosses personally, - all to get you out of a jam.
- I didn't ask you.
You played the hero saving the situation, okay? For you, Maribel.
For you.
It was the only way to stop you going to London.
I couldn't stand the idea of you being far away.
But you're with Carmen, aren't you? Yes, but I keep thinking about you, okay? I act like I'm over it, but it's a lie.
- Diego, please - I can't forget that you're the most important thing for me and I'll always be here for you.
I'm sorry, Diego, I can't do this now.
I'm going.
Shut the door on the way out, okay? SINGER ROBERT, DIAGNOSED WITH TERMINAL ILLNESS - Have you seen Robert? - No.
What's going on, Maribel? Is it true? I can't talk.
Have you seen Guillermo? I think he's in the meeting room.
- How are you? - Fine, thanks.
Piss off.
I don't understand how the news got out.
I don't know, but everyone knows.
You should've seen people's faces.
If I hadn't said anything, this wouldn't have happened.
No, no.
There was nothing you could do.
If I catch the fucker who leaked it, - I'll smash his face in.
- It was me.
What? - How could you be so vile? - Can I talk to you? There's nothing to talk about.
Leave me alone with him for a moment.
I'm asking you, please.
I suppose you hate me right now.
Listen, about yesterday I didn't know how to take it, okay? I don't know how to now, actually.
But forgive me.
Don't cry, hey.
Don't cry.
Alright Fuck, I have to go.
- Where are you going now? - I'm meeting the guys.
See you tomorrow.
Robert, are you alright? - Of course I am.
- Are you sure? Leave him, he's got a lot on his plate.
Maribel Guillermo Look, if we have to go down, we should do it in style.
How about we hold a farewell concert? Where, if Robert's banned everywhere? Not in Pasapoga or Castelló.
They won't book him anywhere.
Who said it has to be a venue? You want to do it in the street? Arrested by the cops, just what we needed.
No, we have a better option.
The rooftop at Golden.
I like it.
I want entrance to be free, anybody who wants can come.
That's going to be a lot of people.
We have to organize a lot of things.
Put up posters in the streets, call the schools, the colleges.
- Like the old days.
- Yes.
I'll take care of it.
This is the number the lighting guy.
Tell him we want the best facilities.
Posters everywhere, concert halls, rehearsal rooms, everyone has to find out.
Go.
Isabel, 2000 copies of this.
Maribel, how are you? You must feel awful.
I can't believe it, he's so young.
That's why on the shoot he was taking pills.
I thought he was getting high.
How's Robert coping? - As well as he can.
- I imagine.
I know it's not the best time, but people keep asking me when the single's coming out.
So, when? It has to be mixed, sent to the factory and Clara's finishing the cover.
This is the photo we chose.
I know you're on something else, but it'd be good to ride the wave.
People are talking about me.
Can you stop for a moment? Thanks.
We need to speed it up, right? The main thing's already done.
- Maribel.
- Yes.
It's all sung and recorded, how long can the rest take? I'm sure Clara can speed up the cover.
Relax, we're all working on your single launch.
As you see, we care about other people.
Hello.
Hello.
I was looking for you.
We know where to do the show.
- Where? - The rooftop at Golden.
I love it.
- When? - Friday.
- I can't on Friday.
- Why? Are you feeling alright? Nothing's wrong.
Can't we do it sooner? We can change it.
If you feel bad, if it's too much, we can cancel it.
No, I can do it, I want to do it.
We'll do the best show the country's ever seen.
- Okay.
- I just ask that it's sooner.
Robert and Los Truenos, entrance free.
Tell your grandkids to come to this show.
Guys, Robert and Los Truenos, entrance free.
Robert's next show.
I'll leave them here, everyone come! Come with your friends, everyone.
Robert and Los Truenos, next Thursday.
I'll leave the flyers for you.
You're all invited next Thursday.
Put those in there.
Santi, how are you doing? Put it all in back.
Come on, guys, let's go.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Inside.
Hey! Girls? I hope you come, eh? I imagine Chimo's explained, but let's go over the details.
It's packed, Maribel.
There are crowds waiting to get in.
Everyone wants to see you.
Listen, I'm sorry I've been a bit distant with you lately.
It's fine, it's only natural in all this madness.
The biggest one.
But if you need to talk, I'm always here.
I know, you always are.
I'm a huge fan.
Can I get your autograph? Sorry, I'm a bit nervous.
I'll see you later.
Guys, it's packed, there's a crowd on the street.
- Guys Ready? - Since I was a kid.
That's the way.
- It's time, guys.
- Come on, come on.
Hands, eyes This concert is going to be epic, epic! One, two, three rock and roll! Go, knock 'em dead.
What's up, Madrid? Now I understand Sonora, I understand Eurovision.
I'm an asshole! I don't understand why you didn't trust me, because I've busted a gut for you, and you've lied to me all this time to my fucking face.
Please, Guillermo.
Please.
I'm sorry What did you want me to do? He had to find out sooner or later.
To wait for me to talk to Guillermo.
It's my life, my decision, you had no right.
And you had a right to vanish like that? I've been looking for you, nobody knew where you were.
Guillermo, have you gone mad? Guillermo, what's wrong? Guillermo, please.
Rosi, Juan, pick that up, please.
Come with me.
Let's go somewhere quiet.
- I'm sorry I worried you.
- I wasn't worried, I was terrified.
I thought you were dead.
Hi.
I'm sorry.
I don't understand how the news got out.
I don't know, but everyone knows.
If I catch the fucker who leaked it, - I'll smash his face in.
- It was me.
What? - How could you be so vile? - Can I talk to you? There's nothing to talk about.
Leave me alone with him, okay? I'm asking you, please.
- I'm listening.
- I suppose you hate me right now.
- I could kill you right now.
- I understand.
But I don't want you to think I have no scruples or feelings, because it's not true, I do.
- Really? - Do you think I like revealing your private life, telling the press you're sick? I expected it from Vidal, but you, Zabala? All you care about is fucking money.
I care about money, yes.
I care about paying off the credit and not losing my house, but above all I care about not losing this, that the people don't lose their jobs, Robert! Revealing your illness is the meanest thing I've ever done.
I know.
But I thought with this and Guillermo's apology we'd get rid of the ban and you'd be profitable, because we need that, until You know what I mean.
But in the end Guillermo told the Vice-Minister to piss off, so that's torn it.
- The play didn't work.
- No.
Only to make you hate me.
But I'll get used to it, everyone will hate me when they find out they've lost their jobs.
My wife too when she finds out we've lost her house.
- I'm really sorry.
- I'm sorrier.
But I'm especially sorry about you.
You're young and very good, you don't deserve this.
Look, I doubt this will stop you from hating me, but he's an excellent cardiologist.
He's only in Spain for a few days.
I spoke to him and he can see you this afternoon.
It's always good to have a second opinion, isn't it? Thanks, Pedro.
I'm really sorry, kid.
Alright - Fuck, I have to go.
- Go where? I'm meeting the guys.
See you tomorrow.
Robert, are you alright? Of course I am.
RICHARD FORD CARDIOLOGIS Thank you.
Look, Robert, I won't lie to you.
Your health is very fragile.
When Mr.
Zabala told me of your situation, I didn't think you had much hope.
- Thanks for seeing me anyway.
- Wait.
If I've learnt anything in my career it's that in Medicine there are no absolute truths.
Look, I've scrutinized your records and latest tests, and I think there's a possibility.
Can we have a word alone? - Yes, of course.
- Come.
I was talking to a doctor yesterday.
A doctor? Are you alright? No, I'm fine, Clara.
I just saw him.
He's very good, from abroad.
Zabala put me in touch with him.
And? He looked at my latest tests, did some more, and he says there's an operation.
It's a long operation, tricky, still in the experimental phase, but he says we can try it.
Then there's a chance you'll get better? A small chance, but there is.
- Well - But it can go wrong.
- How wrong? - Very wrong.
Clara, I have nothing to lose.
I'm dying.
Yes, maybe I have a month, or two, or I go out now and drop dead.
I have to have the operation.
Okay? Okay.
When's the operation? - Friday.
- That's not long.
Then let's make the most of the time we've got.
Have you told Guillermo and Maribel? No.
I haven't and I'm not going to.
I've told you because I'll need your help.
Clara, you said it, come here.
It's not long.
Yes.
I don't want tears or pity.
Okay.
If I have to say farewell, I want to do it my way, okay? Okay.
Hello.
I was looking for you.
We know where to do the show.
- Where? - The rooftop at Golden.
I love it.
- When? - Friday.
I can't on Friday.
Why? Are you feeling alright? Nothing's wrong.
Can't we do it sooner? We can change it.
If you feel bad, if it's too much, we can cancel it.
No, I can do it, I want to do it.
We'll do the best show the country's ever seen, okay? I just ask that it's sooner.
Come on, guys, cheer up! We have to make this show epic! - Are you a Trueno or not? - Yes, I'm a Trueno.
- You're a Trueno.
- Trueno.
Shit, Santi, cheer up.
This is rock and roll.
I don't know you can play with all you have to deal with.
I don't get why you didn't tell us anything.
We're supposed to be buddies and we find out in the paper.
I feel bad for getting mad at you the other day.
It's fine.
I let them turn me into the Regime's poster boy.
It's my fault.
Now you know why I did it.
Sure, but if I knew that - Ignacio, it's alright.
It's fine.
- Fine he says.
- You're dying.
- But I'm still here, right? So no more long faces.
I don't want one tear, okay? We've got work to do.
And I want your help with something.
Sure, Robert, whatever you need.
Right now Golden and Futura depend on the profits I make in the coming years, and there won't be any coming years.
What do you intend to do? I don't want to be a bummer, but it's looking bleak.
There's something that could save Golden from the embargo.
- A final album.
- A final album? No one is to find out about it, not Guillermo, not Maribel.
- This is between us.
- But why all the secrecy? It's a surprise, trust me.
You've written new songs? - Yes, I have.
- Okay.
Miguel, you wanted to produce? This is your chance.
You'll produce the album of the year.
But we have to do it today.
Today, tonight.
Record an album in secret and in record time? I don't know about you, but that rings a bell.
I know it's crazy and hasty, okay? For some time I've only done what I have to do and I'm always screwing up.
In the short time I have left, I want to do what I want.
And right now I want to get into a studio and record with my team.
With you, okay? So, who's in? Count on me.
Ignacio? Who could say no? - Good evening, Lucas.
- Thanks.
Good evening, Lucas.
Let's go.
In the end I'll get a taste for recording at night.
Guys, test it all out, okay? Keep the sandwiches handy, I haven't had dinner.
- Ignacio.
- What? Before we start, here.
- What is it? - A letter.
You didn't need to write me a letter.
You and I are fine, we didn't It's not a letter for you, it's for Maribel.
Okay.
Why do I have it? I don't know how to say goodbye to Maribel.
- Hey, Robert - I've been mulling it over and I don't know where to start.
The other day, when I disappeared, I wrote her this.
You're good at talking about people's feelings, so maybe you could give me your opinion.
I don't like the start and the ideas are jumbled, but It's wonderful.
I'm almost sorry it's not for me.
I'd love somebody to tell me such beautiful things.
Would you help me turn it into a song? Of course.
I think these things are better to say singing.
It'll be a good song and she'll love it.
- Do you think so? - I'm sure of it.
So? We're recording an album, right? Let's give it some rock and roll! One, two, three, four - It's time, guys.
- Come on, come on.
Hands, eyes This show is going to be epic, epic! One, two, three rock and roll! Go, knock 'em dead.
What's up, Madrid? ROBERT'S LAST CONCER MAY 1963 Robert! Robert! Robert! I can't hear you.
Do you want to dance? No, no, no! Do you want to dance or not? Yes! I'll be right back, I'm going to check everything.
Okay.
Only you guys would think to have the gig on the roof.
I bet the English will steal the idea.
Hey, thanks for coming.
Thanks for inviting me.
After our clashes, it does you great credit to have called me.
We needed the top photographer to immortalize the concert.
Nines.
- We're not making a cent on this.
- Not a cent, free entrance.
Some things aren't about money, and this is one of them.
- If you don't get it, it's your problem.
- Excuse me Watch out.
- Pedro, leave him alone.
- Leave him alone? That's enough.
No, no.
It's not.
Alright? Nines, you're leaving? And the rest of the show? - I have things to do.
- What's wrong? You don't want to talk.
You know what's wrong? I came around with some food the other day to keep you company and saw Mrs.
Zabala coming out, so I realized I wasn't the company you needed.
- Listen to me.
- I was just a nuisance.
And I'm not a nuisance.
Nothing happened between us, nor will it.
Are you sure? I think you drink like a fish because of her.
Ãngeles drives me nuts, I don't want to go back to her.
I don't know much about rock and roll and artists, but I have another kind of knowledge.
I can tell when someone is in love with someone, especially when it's someone they shouldn't.
I know because it's happened to me all my life.
And "water you can't drink, let it flow.
" Isn't she staying until the end? - Looks like it.
- Everything alright? Great.
Hey, we're going to miss the end of the show.
I'll be right there, I'll find Clara.
Sorry! Maribel, sorry, we were talking and No, sorry.
I'm going.
No, wait.
I've never done anything like this before.
Relax, the new Fanny does what she wants.
That was the deal.
No one tells you what to do.
Yes, I'm less and less scared to try new things.
I'm happy for you, both of you.
- Well, I'm going to the show.
- Okay.
Thanks for coming, everyone! Come on, guys.
Let's go.
Robert! Robert! Robert! Celia, Celia, the photo! Guys, come here! Excuse me, excuse me.
Celia, Celia.
I know we haven't seen eye to eye lately.
But I have one last favor.
- Tell me, whatever you want.
- Can I get a photo by tonight? - Of course.
- Yeah? Okay.
Thanks.
Guys, Guillermo, Maribel Excuse me, excuse me.
Guys, please, come with me.
He wants a photo with everyone.
I want a photo of us three.
The team.
- A photo of the ones who started it.
- Okay, but listen.
I want to ask a question first.
Go ahead.
If you could go back, would you change anything? No way, Guillermo.
If you hadn't believed in me, we wouldn't have gone through any of this.
Right now I'd be in my parents' restaurant, working and living my last moments.
I'd given up the ghost.
I stood up in that cell and thought "You tried, but you're going home.
" But you two appeared and I thought "Why the hell are they here"? Then we did the single, the album, the tour, the shows Would you change anything? - No.
- No.
Of course not.
It's been a fucking great journey.
You guys are the best thing to ever happen to me.
All thanks to you, Guillermo Rojas.
Come on, guys, let's go.
- Come on, go.
- What are you waiting for? - Come on.
With electricity.
- Smiles, everyone.
Rock and roll.
On three One, two, three.
Rock and roll! Well, you have to know when three's a crowd.
Robert, are you going to leave us alone for once, or what? Right, champ, a hug.
Come here.
Have fun tonight and tomorrow we'll discuss what the future holds.
Big things, Guillermo.
Don't you doubt it.
- See you tomorrow, Guillermo.
- See you tomorrow, you cuties.
Enjoy.
Hey, taxi, taxi! Need a lift? What are you doing here? I thought you'd gone.
Pedro left and I needed some air.
I thought I'd go to the house in the mountains.
I was going home, it's been a long day.
I'll take you, if you invite me to a drink from that bottle you're hiding.
Get in.
Are you going to tell me this mystery that had you so worried? - No.
- No? Very nice.
- I'll tell you tomorrow, I swear.
- Right.
- Now I want us to stay like this.
- Like what? Like this, you and me.
Wouldn't you like to stop time and stay like this forever? What's wrong? What's wrong? I didn't know rockers were so romantic.
For once I'm romantic, don't laugh at me.
Just kidding.
Of course I'd like to stop time.
You were very happy today.
- I like seeing you like that.
- I like seeing you.
Today was a perfect day.
Yes, it was.
I love you, honey.
I want you to call them when I'm in surgery, okay? - Yes.
- And give them this.
It's important.
Do me a favor, come out alive and give it to them in person, okay? I'll do what I can.
- Hey, no sobbing, please.
- No.
Lighten up.
Look what I've got.
Alright a coin Look.
Do you see? - Blow.
- No.
Blow.
Where is it? Where? Look, look.
It's been ages since you did that trick for me.
But you're still terrible at it.
I saw it in your other hand.
Lucky I became a singer and not a magician, eh? Roberto, please, shall we go in? Sure.
Let's go.
Come on.
Let's go.
Thanks for everything.
For always being there.
That's enough.
They'll have to separate us with a scalpel.
I don't think I've told you enough, but I love you so much.
I love you too.
- See you later.
- You'd better.
When you get out, dedicate a song to me, it's long overdue.
Done.
C44, remember.
- Robert Robert.
- Yes? What? In the hospital? Have you told Maribel? I'll be right there.
- Who's in the hospital? - Robert's been admitted.
Yes? - What's wrong? - Where are your car keys? - Your car keys, where are they? - I don't know.
I don't know Didn't she say anything else? - I don't know any more.
- I'll go with you.
What happened? He was admitted and asked her to call us.
The bastard's done it again, he didn't tell me anything.
He didn't say anything? I don't know why.
He's done it again.
- Guillermo, Guillermo! - What? Clara.
Clara.
- What's going on? - He's undergoing surgery right now.
What? He didn't want you or Guillermo to know until he was out.
I don't understand.
No, no He wanted your last memory of him to be good.
Last memory? No, no, no The chances of it succeeding are very small.
No, no, no.
He didn't want you to suffer or worry.
But maybe he wanted me to worry and be by his side, holding his hand and telling him it'd be alright because it will be, won't it, Clara? Yes, of course, Maribel.
There's something else.
He asked me to give you this.
I'd better leave you alone.
I'll wait for Guillermo at the entrance.
FOR MARIBEL My love, tell Zabala that I hope this helps to save Golden and Futura.
If the operation goes well, this will be the first of the albums I owe you.
If it goes badly, I guess it'll be great publicity.
I have so much to thank you for, I wouldn't know where to start.
I don't want to say goodbye, I've always been bad at goodbyes, I never know what to say.
That's why the last song is for you, Maribel.
Struggle of giants The air becomes natural gas A wild duel warns How close I am to entering A colossal world I feel my fragility What a nightmare Running with a beast behind Tell me it's all a lie A silly dream, no more I'm frightened of the enormity Where no one hears my voice Stop deceiving You don't want to hide You've passed without stumbling Paper monster I don't know whom I'm against Or if there's anyone else here I believe in terrible phantoms From a strange place And in my foolishness To make your laugh explode In a colossal world Stop deceiving You don't want to hide You've passed without stumbling Paper monster I don't know whom I'm against Or if there's anyone else here Let us pass Without fear My girl C44, remember.
Today's the saddest day of my life and all my body asks of me is to cry grab a bottle send it all to hell.
But if Robert taught us anything it's to do the opposite.
And if he were here he'd know how to cheer us up and turn this shit around.
And you must forgive me because I'm not a rock god and I don't hold a candle to him.
But I think he'd do this.
Free, as the sun at dawn I am as free as the sea Come, Maribel, come.
Free, as the bird who fled its prison And can fly at last Free, as the wind that gathers My sorrow and my grief I walk relentlessly behind truth And I will finally know What freedom is It's all been worth it.
It's all been worth it!
Which would've meant losing our jobs, but that didn't happen, and here we are.
- When will you tell him? - I don't know.
The only reason they gave Guillermo the loan is because you're the guarantee.
The future depends on you.
- Who are they? - He's Fraga's right hand man.
We want to use the festival's huge impact to convey a positive image of Spain.
We want you to present a candidate this year.
We're on it.
We want to use the occasion to present a new image of Fanny.
We have no objection to the girl being in the contest, but we want the boy, Robert.
What would happen is Robert's career didn't go well? Robert is the collateral.
If his career went badly it'd all go to hell.
Guillermo couldn't handle the debt and bye-bye Golden and Futura.
What if no one likes the new Fanny? How could they not? To me you've always been the prettiest girl in the world.
Every time I saw you in magazines I'd gaze at you, spellbound.
Today you kissed the hand of Franco's wife.
What will the kids who listen to your music think now, those who've confronted their parents to try to be free? You know what you said to those kids today? You have to bow your head and look the other way.
Carmencita has stressed that she'd love it if Robert won the competition.
And the Generalissimo couldn't refuse his granddaughter's wishes.
So it's rigged from the start.
Tonight, on Music Carousel, we'll find out who has the honor of representing us in the final.
Do you know why I never sang again? It reminded me of you, of us, of how much I loved you.
I thought that after so many years it was all dead and buried.
Robert, you have to calm down.
I don't want to calm down, I don't want to win the contest.
I don't want a photo with Carmencita or do interviews praising the Regime.
You know I think the same, and I know how hard this is for you, but you're going onstage with Los Truenos and doing the best concert of your life.
The artist who is to represent Spain in the next Eurovision is José Guardiola.
Excuse me, this isn't what we agreed on.
We're not taking a cretin to Eurovision who doesn't respect the Generalísimo or his country.
Or do you deny what you said? As of today, you'll find out how you do with the Regime against you.
- What? - We're banning you in the press, - radio and television.
- That's a little Your career is over, kid.
- Have you seen Robert? - No.
Didn't he sleep with you? - No, that's why I asked you.
- He didn't come home.
- Guys, have you seen Robert? - No.
No one's admitted with that name.
I don't know what's going on, but it must be serious.
I'm Guillermo, you can trust me.
Calm down.
What's wrong? - We didn't what became of you.
- I just needed to be alone.
- Maribel is overwhelmed.
- Where is she? With Guillermo, talking.
45 REVOLUTIONS Are you sick? Yes.
Are you dying? Fuck Since when have you known? Since I came to Madrid and sneaked into the Price.
- That's why we met.
- No, stop, Robert.
Don't tell me this shit has a bright side.
Put yourself in my place.
Why didn't you say anything? I tried loads of time, but I didn't know how.
By opening your mouth and telling the truth! It's not that hard.
I could've helped you, found a doctor, an expert to help you before it's too late.
Would you have signed me? Would you have made an album? - Kid, who am I? - Bullshit, Guillermo.
Of course I would've.
You would've patted me on the back, wished me luck, and we would've gone our separate ways.
I know I've been selfish, okay? But it was my only chance.
In all this time you never had the balls to say "Guillermo, this is happening to me.
" After signing, after recording the first single and album, after organizing a tour that could've killed you.
Shit, Robert I didn't want you pitying me.
Is that so bad? Yes, it is.
It's bad because you're dying and you shut me out, you both shut me out.
I don't get it, we're supposed to be a team and take decisions together.
Together.
Now I understand Sonora, I understand Eurovision.
I'm an asshole! I don't understand why you didn't trust me, because I've busted a gut for you, and you've lied to me all this time to my fucking face.
Let's calm down a little and talk this over, okay? Please, Guillermo.
Guillermo, don't go.
Please.
Guillermo, what's wrong? Guillermo, please, have you gone mad? What's wrong, Guillermo? What's wrong? Rosi, Juan, pick this up, please.
Let's go somewhere quiet.
The credit's linked exclusively to Robert's profits, right? The kid's dying, okay, Zabala? He's dying.
Can we talk for 5 minutes about something besides money, please? I understand the situation.
He's your artist and I'm really sorry, but honestly, I care much more about the future of my wife and son and all the people working here.
I don't know if you realize the trouble we're in, so I'll ask you again.
Is the credit linked exclusively to Robert's profits? Fuck! Then excuse me for having a drink with you, but I need it to take this in.
Look, I know you're right, we have to think about all this, but I don't know how to cope with this.
My head's racing, I don't know what to do.
- How is he? - Fucking great, fucking great.
How has he been all these months? I have no idea.
No idea.
Fuck I didn't even ask him.
Go home and rest.
You have to get this straight, you can't work like this, I'll look after the business.
- What are you going to do? - I don't know, frankly.
But I'll think of something.
Really, go and rest.
Listen, Zabala Guillermo, you'd do the same thing for me, right? What a blow.
Poor kid.
And instead of consoling him, asking how he is, I went at him for lying.
I'm an asshole, damn it.
Come on, take it easy.
Just apologize tomorrow.
Why don't you go home and get some rest? I don't want to.
You know what I want.
That's why I'm saying it.
- Pour me one, Tino.
- No.
Do you know why not? Because it won't be one.
One will follow another and another and - Pour me a drink, damn it! - No, I won't.
If you want to screw up your life, do it on your own.
- Right.
- But count me out.
Fuck! Fuck! Can I come in? Pedro told me everything.
How are you? Well, I've been better.
Why have you come, Ãngeles? I really don't know.
Sure you don't have anything stronger to drink? I don't know, I needed some air.
For some time things haven't been going well.
Pedro spends almost all day at the office and when he comes home we shout at each other all night.
I'm sorry, but I don't know what I can do.
You already did it.
I know I shouldn't be here, but since the kiss yesterday I can't think of anything else.
Ãngeles, if you stay we'll hurt the people we care about most and we'll regret it.
If only it were like this when we were together.
We never would've split up.
- Good morning, José Antonio.
- Good morning, Mr.
Rojas.
- How are you? - Fine.
And you? Well, we've been better.
Look, I'll tell you.
Have you ever had the feeling of being about to get everything you want and suddenly, it vanishes before your eyes? No? Good for you then.
- How's the press today? - Hot.
Do you want one? Go on.
SPANISH MUSIC STAR SERIOUSLY ILL What the hell is this? Please, don't start.
The meeting's over.
- How did this get in the press? - What do you think? So it was you.
I'll smash your face, bastard! Sure.
It was the only way to spin the story in our favor.
How the hell will you spin it in our favor? First, it'll boost album sales.
Second, we can kneel and beg to get the ban lifted and look at our options.
Maybe the kid can do his final concerts and cover part of the loan.
So that's it.
Making money from Robert's illness.
- You can't get any lower! - Yes, you can! You can beg in the street and sleep in the fucking park! - Fuck that! Where are you going? - To work to save this company.
You've crossed a line! Guillermo, I'm asking you, please Something has to be done, and now.
Do you have a better idea? I'm all ears.
You'd be doing me a favor.
Mr.
Zabala, excuse me.
- Have they arrived yet? - Yes, they're in the meeting room.
- Let's go.
- Go where? Guillermo, we need them to take the ban off us.
We have to swallow our pride.
The Vice-Minister is waiting.
- Fucking hell.
- It's the only way to save this.
- Fuck, Zabala.
- I'm begging you.
Give me a minute.
One minute.
We first want to apologize for Robert's words on the Regime.
It doesn't reflect the philosophy of this company, right? Anyway, we want you to understand the situation.
Robert was very ill and that's a tragedy, but especially for him.
Where is the boy in question? We were expecting to see him and get a personal apology.
Of course, but he's in the clinic getting all kinds of tests.
We're trying to reverse this situation, God willing.
He wanted to be here, but we said health comes first.
Country comes first.
Country first, then health, that's what I meant to say.
I want you to understand that when Robert said that, he'd just received the diagnosis.
In these situations one doesn't think, but he's very sorry and told us this so that we'd tell you, right, Guillermo? - Eh? - No.
What's that? He's not sorry.
Nor will he be.
Guillermo, can we talk about this for a moment? Look, Pedro, some time ago I asked Robert: "Hey, what's rock and roll to you "? Robert pulled out a cigarette and said: "This is rock and roll.
" I started Futura in order to work differently, with no one telling me how to do things, not even you.
If this is your way of trying to lift the ban on your artist, - it's looking bad for you.
- You still don't get it.
No one's stopping this.
Not your yelling, your threats, your censorship, your confiscation of records, or your bans.
Robert's music will be alive long after you've disappeared and there's nothing you can do to stop it.
Please, I'm begging you.
Guillermo Piss off.
Let's go.
Alright then.
- So that's rock and roll? - Yes, sir.
- What did the Vice-Minister say? - Baldie was struck dumb.
They won't lift the ban.
I'll be lucky if they don't send me the cops.
And the future of Futura and Golden? I have no idea, really.
But we can be proud, the three of us have made history.
Don't you ever forget it.
I wouldn't change it for anything.
Me neither.
Listen, Robert, about yesterday I didn't know how to take it, okay? I don't know how to now, actually.
- But forgive me.
- No, I have to apologize.
When we met I said we were going to do great things together and that I'd be there till the end.
We've done the first, okay? And as for the second I'm here for whatever you need.
Don't cry, hey.
Don't cry.
Thanks for everything.
Alright - Fuck, I have to go.
- Go where? I'm meeting the guys.
See you tomorrow.
Robert, are you alright? - Of course I am.
- Are you sure? Leave him, he's got a lot on his plate.
Maribel Guillermo Look, if we have to go down, we should do it in style.
How about we hold a farewell concert? Come on, guys, it's starting.
Come on, come in.
Come on.
Up you go.
Up, we'll be late.
Hi, girls.
- Hi.
- Hi.
See you later.
Come on.
If I may - Ready? - Since I was a kid.
That's the way.
- It's time, guys.
- Come on.
Come on, go.
Hands, eyes This show is going to be epic, epic! One, two, three rock and roll! Go, knock 'em dead.
What's up, Madrid? Now I understand Sonora, I understand Eurovision.
I'm an asshole! I don't understand why you didn't trust me, because I've busted a gut for you, and you've lied to me all this time to my fucking face.
Let's calm down a little and talk this over, okay? - Please, Guillermo.
- I'm out of here.
Please.
I'm sorry.
What did you want me to do? He had to find out sooner or later.
To wait for me to talk to Guillermo.
It's my life, my decision, you had no right.
And you had a right to vanish like that? I've been looking for you, nobody knew where you were.
Guillermo, please, have you gone mad? What's wrong, Guillermo? Are you alright? Guillermo, please.
Rosi, Juan, pick that up, please.
Come with me.
Let's go somewhere quiet.
I'm sorry I worried you.
I wasn't worried, I was terrified.
I thought you were dead.
- Maribel.
Zip me up, please.
- You're going out? Yes.
I'm meeting some girlfriends I haven't seen for ages.
They were widowed and we lost touch.
Now, I'm almost a widow too - Mom, don't be crude.
- It was a joke.
- Thanks.
- I like seeing you like this.
How? In evening dress? Joking, meeting friends, living your life.
Sometimes you have to follow the advice of people who love you, even though it's hard to hear.
- By the way, how's Robert? - Good.
We argued a little, but Look, I've never understood this mulish obsession with work, but now I'm proud of everything you've done on your own.
Even if Robert's a good boy, nice, handsome, I don't want any man to determine your life.
And much less wipe that lovely smile off your face.
Promise me? - Yes.
- I learned very late.
- Mom - I left you dinner in the kitchen.
- Mom - Who knows when I'll be home tonight? - Are you alright? - Yes, yes.
I'm fine.
Go to your widows, they'll be waiting for you.
Maribel, Maribel, wake up.
Look.
Have you seen this? ROBERT, SPANISH MUSICIAN, TERMINALLY ILL - How did they find out? - Is it true? Oh, my girl.
Maribel.
- What a surprise, Diego.
- Hello, Elisa.
Is Maribel in? Yes, but it's not a good time, Diego.
- It's a bit - Mom, leave us alone a moment.
Yes, of course.
I was going shopping.
- How are you? - What do you think? Did you know about all this? Yes, but I couldn't say anything, I'm sorry, Diego.
Maribel, I know it's a tough time, okay? It's a tricky time for everyone, for me as well.
I helped you get the loan, I did you another favor.
I had to answer to my bosses personally, - all to get you out of a jam.
- I didn't ask you.
You played the hero saving the situation, okay? For you, Maribel.
For you.
It was the only way to stop you going to London.
I couldn't stand the idea of you being far away.
But you're with Carmen, aren't you? Yes, but I keep thinking about you, okay? I act like I'm over it, but it's a lie.
- Diego, please - I can't forget that you're the most important thing for me and I'll always be here for you.
I'm sorry, Diego, I can't do this now.
I'm going.
Shut the door on the way out, okay? SINGER ROBERT, DIAGNOSED WITH TERMINAL ILLNESS - Have you seen Robert? - No.
What's going on, Maribel? Is it true? I can't talk.
Have you seen Guillermo? I think he's in the meeting room.
- How are you? - Fine, thanks.
Piss off.
I don't understand how the news got out.
I don't know, but everyone knows.
You should've seen people's faces.
If I hadn't said anything, this wouldn't have happened.
No, no.
There was nothing you could do.
If I catch the fucker who leaked it, - I'll smash his face in.
- It was me.
What? - How could you be so vile? - Can I talk to you? There's nothing to talk about.
Leave me alone with him for a moment.
I'm asking you, please.
I suppose you hate me right now.
Listen, about yesterday I didn't know how to take it, okay? I don't know how to now, actually.
But forgive me.
Don't cry, hey.
Don't cry.
Alright Fuck, I have to go.
- Where are you going now? - I'm meeting the guys.
See you tomorrow.
Robert, are you alright? - Of course I am.
- Are you sure? Leave him, he's got a lot on his plate.
Maribel Guillermo Look, if we have to go down, we should do it in style.
How about we hold a farewell concert? Where, if Robert's banned everywhere? Not in Pasapoga or Castelló.
They won't book him anywhere.
Who said it has to be a venue? You want to do it in the street? Arrested by the cops, just what we needed.
No, we have a better option.
The rooftop at Golden.
I like it.
I want entrance to be free, anybody who wants can come.
That's going to be a lot of people.
We have to organize a lot of things.
Put up posters in the streets, call the schools, the colleges.
- Like the old days.
- Yes.
I'll take care of it.
This is the number the lighting guy.
Tell him we want the best facilities.
Posters everywhere, concert halls, rehearsal rooms, everyone has to find out.
Go.
Isabel, 2000 copies of this.
Maribel, how are you? You must feel awful.
I can't believe it, he's so young.
That's why on the shoot he was taking pills.
I thought he was getting high.
How's Robert coping? - As well as he can.
- I imagine.
I know it's not the best time, but people keep asking me when the single's coming out.
So, when? It has to be mixed, sent to the factory and Clara's finishing the cover.
This is the photo we chose.
I know you're on something else, but it'd be good to ride the wave.
People are talking about me.
Can you stop for a moment? Thanks.
We need to speed it up, right? The main thing's already done.
- Maribel.
- Yes.
It's all sung and recorded, how long can the rest take? I'm sure Clara can speed up the cover.
Relax, we're all working on your single launch.
As you see, we care about other people.
Hello.
Hello.
I was looking for you.
We know where to do the show.
- Where? - The rooftop at Golden.
I love it.
- When? - Friday.
- I can't on Friday.
- Why? Are you feeling alright? Nothing's wrong.
Can't we do it sooner? We can change it.
If you feel bad, if it's too much, we can cancel it.
No, I can do it, I want to do it.
We'll do the best show the country's ever seen.
- Okay.
- I just ask that it's sooner.
Robert and Los Truenos, entrance free.
Tell your grandkids to come to this show.

I'll leave them here, everyone come! Come with your friends, everyone.
Robert and Los Truenos, next Thursday.
I'll leave the flyers for you.
You're all invited next Thursday.
Put those in there.
Santi, how are you doing? Put it all in back.
Come on, guys, let's go.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Inside.
Hey! Girls? I hope you come, eh? I imagine Chimo's explained, but let's go over the details.
It's packed, Maribel.
There are crowds waiting to get in.
Everyone wants to see you.
Listen, I'm sorry I've been a bit distant with you lately.
It's fine, it's only natural in all this madness.
The biggest one.
But if you need to talk, I'm always here.
I know, you always are.
I'm a huge fan.
Can I get your autograph? Sorry, I'm a bit nervous.
I'll see you later.
Guys, it's packed, there's a crowd on the street.
- Guys Ready? - Since I was a kid.
That's the way.
- It's time, guys.
- Come on, come on.
Hands, eyes This concert is going to be epic, epic! One, two, three rock and roll! Go, knock 'em dead.
What's up, Madrid? Now I understand Sonora, I understand Eurovision.
I'm an asshole! I don't understand why you didn't trust me, because I've busted a gut for you, and you've lied to me all this time to my fucking face.
Please, Guillermo.
Please.
I'm sorry What did you want me to do? He had to find out sooner or later.
To wait for me to talk to Guillermo.
It's my life, my decision, you had no right.
And you had a right to vanish like that? I've been looking for you, nobody knew where you were.
Guillermo, have you gone mad? Guillermo, what's wrong? Guillermo, please.
Rosi, Juan, pick that up, please.
Come with me.
Let's go somewhere quiet.
- I'm sorry I worried you.
- I wasn't worried, I was terrified.
I thought you were dead.
Hi.
I'm sorry.
I don't understand how the news got out.
I don't know, but everyone knows.
If I catch the fucker who leaked it, - I'll smash his face in.
- It was me.
What? - How could you be so vile? - Can I talk to you? There's nothing to talk about.
Leave me alone with him, okay? I'm asking you, please.
- I'm listening.
- I suppose you hate me right now.
- I could kill you right now.
- I understand.
But I don't want you to think I have no scruples or feelings, because it's not true, I do.
- Really? - Do you think I like revealing your private life, telling the press you're sick? I expected it from Vidal, but you, Zabala? All you care about is fucking money.
I care about money, yes.
I care about paying off the credit and not losing my house, but above all I care about not losing this, that the people don't lose their jobs, Robert! Revealing your illness is the meanest thing I've ever done.
I know.
But I thought with this and Guillermo's apology we'd get rid of the ban and you'd be profitable, because we need that, until You know what I mean.
But in the end Guillermo told the Vice-Minister to piss off, so that's torn it.
- The play didn't work.
- No.
Only to make you hate me.
But I'll get used to it, everyone will hate me when they find out they've lost their jobs.
My wife too when she finds out we've lost her house.
- I'm really sorry.
- I'm sorrier.
But I'm especially sorry about you.
You're young and very good, you don't deserve this.
Look, I doubt this will stop you from hating me, but he's an excellent cardiologist.
He's only in Spain for a few days.
I spoke to him and he can see you this afternoon.
It's always good to have a second opinion, isn't it? Thanks, Pedro.
I'm really sorry, kid.
Alright - Fuck, I have to go.
- Go where? I'm meeting the guys.
See you tomorrow.
Robert, are you alright? Of course I am.
RICHARD FORD CARDIOLOGIS Thank you.
Look, Robert, I won't lie to you.
Your health is very fragile.
When Mr.
Zabala told me of your situation, I didn't think you had much hope.
- Thanks for seeing me anyway.
- Wait.
If I've learnt anything in my career it's that in Medicine there are no absolute truths.
Look, I've scrutinized your records and latest tests, and I think there's a possibility.
Can we have a word alone? - Yes, of course.
- Come.
I was talking to a doctor yesterday.
A doctor? Are you alright? No, I'm fine, Clara.
I just saw him.
He's very good, from abroad.
Zabala put me in touch with him.
And? He looked at my latest tests, did some more, and he says there's an operation.
It's a long operation, tricky, still in the experimental phase, but he says we can try it.
Then there's a chance you'll get better? A small chance, but there is.
- Well - But it can go wrong.
- How wrong? - Very wrong.
Clara, I have nothing to lose.
I'm dying.
Yes, maybe I have a month, or two, or I go out now and drop dead.
I have to have the operation.
Okay? Okay.
When's the operation? - Friday.
- That's not long.
Then let's make the most of the time we've got.
Have you told Guillermo and Maribel? No.
I haven't and I'm not going to.
I've told you because I'll need your help.
Clara, you said it, come here.
It's not long.
Yes.
I don't want tears or pity.
Okay.
If I have to say farewell, I want to do it my way, okay? Okay.
Hello.
I was looking for you.
We know where to do the show.
- Where? - The rooftop at Golden.
I love it.
- When? - Friday.
I can't on Friday.
Why? Are you feeling alright? Nothing's wrong.
Can't we do it sooner? We can change it.
If you feel bad, if it's too much, we can cancel it.
No, I can do it, I want to do it.
We'll do the best show the country's ever seen, okay? I just ask that it's sooner.
Come on, guys, cheer up! We have to make this show epic! - Are you a Trueno or not? - Yes, I'm a Trueno.
- You're a Trueno.
- Trueno.
Shit, Santi, cheer up.
This is rock and roll.
I don't know you can play with all you have to deal with.
I don't get why you didn't tell us anything.
We're supposed to be buddies and we find out in the paper.
I feel bad for getting mad at you the other day.
It's fine.
I let them turn me into the Regime's poster boy.
It's my fault.
Now you know why I did it.
Sure, but if I knew that - Ignacio, it's alright.
It's fine.
- Fine he says.
- You're dying.
- But I'm still here, right? So no more long faces.
I don't want one tear, okay? We've got work to do.
And I want your help with something.
Sure, Robert, whatever you need.
Right now Golden and Futura depend on the profits I make in the coming years, and there won't be any coming years.
What do you intend to do? I don't want to be a bummer, but it's looking bleak.
There's something that could save Golden from the embargo.
- A final album.
- A final album? No one is to find out about it, not Guillermo, not Maribel.
- This is between us.
- But why all the secrecy? It's a surprise, trust me.
You've written new songs? - Yes, I have.
- Okay.
Miguel, you wanted to produce? This is your chance.
You'll produce the album of the year.
But we have to do it today.
Today, tonight.
Record an album in secret and in record time? I don't know about you, but that rings a bell.
I know it's crazy and hasty, okay? For some time I've only done what I have to do and I'm always screwing up.
In the short time I have left, I want to do what I want.
And right now I want to get into a studio and record with my team.
With you, okay? So, who's in? Count on me.
Ignacio? Who could say no? - Good evening, Lucas.
- Thanks.
Good evening, Lucas.
Let's go.
In the end I'll get a taste for recording at night.
Guys, test it all out, okay? Keep the sandwiches handy, I haven't had dinner.
- Ignacio.
- What? Before we start, here.
- What is it? - A letter.
You didn't need to write me a letter.
You and I are fine, we didn't It's not a letter for you, it's for Maribel.
Okay.
Why do I have it? I don't know how to say goodbye to Maribel.
- Hey, Robert - I've been mulling it over and I don't know where to start.
The other day, when I disappeared, I wrote her this.
You're good at talking about people's feelings, so maybe you could give me your opinion.
I don't like the start and the ideas are jumbled, but It's wonderful.
I'm almost sorry it's not for me.
I'd love somebody to tell me such beautiful things.
Would you help me turn it into a song? Of course.
I think these things are better to say singing.
It'll be a good song and she'll love it.
- Do you think so? - I'm sure of it.
So? We're recording an album, right? Let's give it some rock and roll! One, two, three, four - It's time, guys.
- Come on, come on.
Hands, eyes This show is going to be epic, epic! One, two, three rock and roll! Go, knock 'em dead.
What's up, Madrid? ROBERT'S LAST CONCER MAY 1963 Robert! Robert! Robert! I can't hear you.
Do you want to dance? No, no, no! Do you want to dance or not? Yes! I'll be right back, I'm going to check everything.
Okay.
Only you guys would think to have the gig on the roof.
I bet the English will steal the idea.
Hey, thanks for coming.
Thanks for inviting me.
After our clashes, it does you great credit to have called me.
We needed the top photographer to immortalize the concert.
Nines.
- We're not making a cent on this.
- Not a cent, free entrance.
Some things aren't about money, and this is one of them.
- If you don't get it, it's your problem.
- Excuse me Watch out.
- Pedro, leave him alone.
- Leave him alone? That's enough.
No, no.
It's not.
Alright? Nines, you're leaving? And the rest of the show? - I have things to do.
- What's wrong? You don't want to talk.
You know what's wrong? I came around with some food the other day to keep you company and saw Mrs.
Zabala coming out, so I realized I wasn't the company you needed.
- Listen to me.
- I was just a nuisance.
And I'm not a nuisance.
Nothing happened between us, nor will it.
Are you sure? I think you drink like a fish because of her.
Ãngeles drives me nuts, I don't want to go back to her.
I don't know much about rock and roll and artists, but I have another kind of knowledge.
I can tell when someone is in love with someone, especially when it's someone they shouldn't.
I know because it's happened to me all my life.
And "water you can't drink, let it flow.
" Isn't she staying until the end? - Looks like it.
- Everything alright? Great.
Hey, we're going to miss the end of the show.
I'll be right there, I'll find Clara.
Sorry! Maribel, sorry, we were talking and No, sorry.
I'm going.
No, wait.
I've never done anything like this before.
Relax, the new Fanny does what she wants.
That was the deal.
No one tells you what to do.
Yes, I'm less and less scared to try new things.
I'm happy for you, both of you.
- Well, I'm going to the show.
- Okay.
Thanks for coming, everyone! Come on, guys.
Let's go.
Robert! Robert! Robert! Celia, Celia, the photo! Guys, come here! Excuse me, excuse me.
Celia, Celia.
I know we haven't seen eye to eye lately.
But I have one last favor.
- Tell me, whatever you want.
- Can I get a photo by tonight? - Of course.
- Yeah? Okay.
Thanks.
Guys, Guillermo, Maribel Excuse me, excuse me.
Guys, please, come with me.
He wants a photo with everyone.
I want a photo of us three.
The team.
- A photo of the ones who started it.
- Okay, but listen.
I want to ask a question first.
Go ahead.
If you could go back, would you change anything? No way, Guillermo.
If you hadn't believed in me, we wouldn't have gone through any of this.
Right now I'd be in my parents' restaurant, working and living my last moments.
I'd given up the ghost.
I stood up in that cell and thought "You tried, but you're going home.
" But you two appeared and I thought "Why the hell are they here"? Then we did the single, the album, the tour, the shows Would you change anything? - No.
- No.
Of course not.
It's been a fucking great journey.
You guys are the best thing to ever happen to me.
All thanks to you, Guillermo Rojas.
Come on, guys, let's go.
- Come on, go.
- What are you waiting for? - Come on.
With electricity.
- Smiles, everyone.
Rock and roll.
On three One, two, three.
Rock and roll! Well, you have to know when three's a crowd.
Robert, are you going to leave us alone for once, or what? Right, champ, a hug.
Come here.
Have fun tonight and tomorrow we'll discuss what the future holds.
Big things, Guillermo.
Don't you doubt it.
- See you tomorrow, Guillermo.
- See you tomorrow, you cuties.
Enjoy.
Hey, taxi, taxi! Need a lift? What are you doing here? I thought you'd gone.
Pedro left and I needed some air.
I thought I'd go to the house in the mountains.
I was going home, it's been a long day.
I'll take you, if you invite me to a drink from that bottle you're hiding.
Get in.
Are you going to tell me this mystery that had you so worried? - No.
- No? Very nice.
- I'll tell you tomorrow, I swear.
- Right.
- Now I want us to stay like this.
- Like what? Like this, you and me.
Wouldn't you like to stop time and stay like this forever? What's wrong? What's wrong? I didn't know rockers were so romantic.
For once I'm romantic, don't laugh at me.
Just kidding.
Of course I'd like to stop time.
You were very happy today.
- I like seeing you like that.
- I like seeing you.
Today was a perfect day.
Yes, it was.
I love you, honey.
I want you to call them when I'm in surgery, okay? - Yes.
- And give them this.
It's important.
Do me a favor, come out alive and give it to them in person, okay? I'll do what I can.
- Hey, no sobbing, please.
- No.
Lighten up.
Look what I've got.
Alright a coin Look.
Do you see? - Blow.
- No.
Blow.
Where is it? Where? Look, look.
It's been ages since you did that trick for me.
But you're still terrible at it.
I saw it in your other hand.
Lucky I became a singer and not a magician, eh? Roberto, please, shall we go in? Sure.
Let's go.
Come on.
Let's go.
Thanks for everything.
For always being there.
That's enough.
They'll have to separate us with a scalpel.
I don't think I've told you enough, but I love you so much.
I love you too.
- See you later.
- You'd better.
When you get out, dedicate a song to me, it's long overdue.
Done.
C44, remember.
- Robert Robert.
- Yes? What? In the hospital? Have you told Maribel? I'll be right there.
- Who's in the hospital? - Robert's been admitted.
Yes? - What's wrong? - Where are your car keys? - Your car keys, where are they? - I don't know.
I don't know Didn't she say anything else? - I don't know any more.
- I'll go with you.
What happened? He was admitted and asked her to call us.
The bastard's done it again, he didn't tell me anything.
He didn't say anything? I don't know why.
He's done it again.
- Guillermo, Guillermo! - What? Clara.
Clara.
- What's going on? - He's undergoing surgery right now.
What? He didn't want you or Guillermo to know until he was out.
I don't understand.
No, no He wanted your last memory of him to be good.
Last memory? No, no, no The chances of it succeeding are very small.
No, no, no.
He didn't want you to suffer or worry.
But maybe he wanted me to worry and be by his side, holding his hand and telling him it'd be alright because it will be, won't it, Clara? Yes, of course, Maribel.
There's something else.
He asked me to give you this.
I'd better leave you alone.
I'll wait for Guillermo at the entrance.
FOR MARIBEL My love, tell Zabala that I hope this helps to save Golden and Futura.
If the operation goes well, this will be the first of the albums I owe you.
If it goes badly, I guess it'll be great publicity.
I have so much to thank you for, I wouldn't know where to start.
I don't want to say goodbye, I've always been bad at goodbyes, I never know what to say.
That's why the last song is for you, Maribel.
Struggle of giants The air becomes natural gas A wild duel warns How close I am to entering A colossal world I feel my fragility What a nightmare Running with a beast behind Tell me it's all a lie A silly dream, no more I'm frightened of the enormity Where no one hears my voice Stop deceiving You don't want to hide You've passed without stumbling Paper monster I don't know whom I'm against Or if there's anyone else here I believe in terrible phantoms From a strange place And in my foolishness To make your laugh explode In a colossal world Stop deceiving You don't want to hide You've passed without stumbling Paper monster I don't know whom I'm against Or if there's anyone else here Let us pass Without fear My girl C44, remember.
Today's the saddest day of my life and all my body asks of me is to cry grab a bottle send it all to hell.
But if Robert taught us anything it's to do the opposite.
And if he were here he'd know how to cheer us up and turn this shit around.
And you must forgive me because I'm not a rock god and I don't hold a candle to him.
But I think he'd do this.
Free, as the sun at dawn I am as free as the sea Come, Maribel, come.
Free, as the bird who fled its prison And can fly at last Free, as the wind that gathers My sorrow and my grief I walk relentlessly behind truth And I will finally know What freedom is It's all been worth it.
It's all been worth it!
