High Heat (2022) s01e14 Episode Script

Let's see
I didn't ask you that
so you'd stay there looking at me.
If you want to work here, you need
to work at our same pace. Come on, move.
I came here prepared to work.
I don't come here at night to
have a social life.
You said you'd tell us
about Daniel's aunt.
Oh
The famous Isabel.
Another woman who came here
to complicate things.
Poor woman. I was barely
a simple apprentice.
I was naive, just like you two.
I didn't know anything at all.
[Isabel]
A journalist for Red Global?
Elías Solorzano.
How can I help you, sir?
I'm looking into the Reynosa Butcher.
I'm sure you've heard about him.
Everyone has in this town,
unfortunately.
Well, get ready. I have serious suspicions
that he's closer than you think.
I don't know any murderers.
- Listen, I'll ask you to
- [Elías] Are you sure?
Do you trust your boyfriend, Hugo?
Of course.
He's a policeman.
Why wouldn't I trust him?
Do you make a good couple?
We're just like any other.
We have issues, he has his character,
but I can manage it.
Does he tell you everything?
Do you have time?
I need to take you somewhere.
I want to show you something.
- [Isabel] What's wrong?
- [car doors close]
Why are we here?
Why are you being so mysterious?
This storeroom belongs to Hugo,
your boyfriend.
Has he ever told you about it?
He told you nothing? I figured so.
Damn.
Let's leave. There's no way.
Maybe it's better this way.
STOREROOM FOR REN
Let's leave.
[Elías]
This storeroom belongs to Hugo.
Has he ever told you about it?
Does he tell you everything?
He was a policeman.
A NETFLIX SERIES
I remember the day he came looking
for her. He was wearing his uniform.
And he took her.
Yes, your godfather was a policeman.
There was something strange
about that Hugo.
Isabel never told me,
but I'm sure she was afraid of him.
Did he tell you anything else?
Was there someone else?
Flor.
Her sister-in-law.
What did she tell you about Flor?
That she was killed.
That they made it look
like she died in a fire.
But it wasn't like that.
That they blamed her brother,
who was in prison.
But she was sure that you were innocent.
I could see it in her eyes as well.
In this job, thanks to God's grace,
you learn to realize when a person
is lying or telling the truth.
So, according to Isabel,
Hugo killed Flor?
No, she never said that.
But I'm sure that was the case.
Why are you so sure?
Because that man
was the devil.
You could realize it
just by seeing how much he hated women.
[Flor]
I don't like staying alone.
For weeks, I've been feeling
like someone is following me.
Like someone's observing me.
What's wrong?
I didn't listen to Flor.
I'm missing a pair of panties.
I'm sure they just fell when you were
gathering the dirty laundry.
I know where I leave things, Ricardo.
Let's see.
They're not with the dirty laundry either.
Come on, Flor. It's not like some weirdo
came in and stole them.
I didn't understand your mother.
I should have stopped everything
back then.
I didn't do what I should have.
I recognize that I've never been the kind
who takes the initiative in the bedroom,
and maybe that has pushed him away.
You think so, dear?
I don't even know anymore.
I took the initiative and
what did I get from it?
I can't look him in the eyes anymore.
You never know.
If I were you, I'd go for it.
Honey, for that, both need to agree.
When it comes to the heart,
you can't force things.
I don't mean you should force things,
Gloria, but give them a little push.
It's what I'm trying to do with Gera.
Honey
when you've spent a lot of time
trying to push a car that won't move,
it's time to change cars.
But I don't want to change cars.
It's hard to be in love
when it's unrequited.
It's sad.
But Gerardo loves me back.
And, if you wanted it,
Ricardo could fall in love with you, too.
It's just a matter of trying harder,
Gloria.
Well, I'll give Gerardo
a surprise he won't ever forget.
I couldn't sleep at all last night.
I didn't sleep much either.
Do you regret it?
Quite the opposite.
I feel like I had a huge weight
taken off my shoulders.
Listen, Fabio
it's the first time that I
I know.
I'd like to take things slowly.
There's no rush.
Thanks.
What?
It felt like it was my first kiss ever.
All those things
you're supposed to feel
I felt them when I kissed you.
What did the Commissioner want?
He wanted some reports.
Routine stuff, nothing to worry about.
That's great, sweetie, but
Don't call me sweetie.
Okay, Leonora.
Is that better?
What did you do with the car I gave you?
I parked it in a place
that's even safer than this station.
Are you serious?
That's what you're worried about? The car?
Not putting an end to police corruption,
which could make you a national hero?
When I'm that hero,
be careful not to steal my spotlight.
That's exactly the problem.
You care about recognition too much.
I'm here for justice.
Did the Commissioner suggest anything?
We didn't get so far
hiding from national authorities.
He said nothing. He trusts me.
[sighs]
You could help me,
so he'd trust me a little, too.
I'm one of the good guys too, but
I also have my own goals.
We are all the good guys here.
I became an officer because I'm decent
and I wanted to be one of the good guys,
with no personal goals in mind.
Possible brain deterioration?
What are you telling me?
I don't understand.
We need to remain calm.
What matters most now is his surgery.
We need to reprogram it.
For when?
Tomorrow.
I can schedule an OR if you want.
When should we pay for it?
Immediately?
Can't we pay in installments or something?
I'm sorry.
I need to see other patients.
You can stay and look after him
if you want, but just until six o'clock.
Excuse me.
What will we do?
The first kiss of his life.
His first kiss, and it was mine.
Okay, wait. Let me see.
He took the initiative, right?
Yes, he did. I didn't pressure him.
What now?
Now, I'm going to enjoy it, Lupita!
- No, Fabio! Fabio!
- Yes!
Wait, wait, wait. Listen.
He's still with Mayte, right?
We need to give him time
to solve his issues.
What if he doesn't?
There's no turning back after this kiss.
He had doubts before,
but now he's certain.
No, wait. He might be certain,
but he's still in the closet.
No, Lupita. That closet was opened
a long time ago, and nothing can close it.
- Fabio! Why?
- No, really.
Clean bed sheets!
- Is anything wrong?
- No.
Fabio, is there a problem?
Fabio?
Tell me what's happening right now.
Just good things, Mom.
Gerardo and I kissed.
It's the best thing
that's ever happened to me.
[church bells toll]
[Ricardo]
The one missing here is Hugo.
Then, you were very close.
Imagine that.
He was a godfather to one of my sons.
You think you know your friends,
until they betray you.
You can't imagine how happy I was here.
Right here
during my first days as a firefighter.
When I still had her.
Before everything else.
Now, pull this. Frame it properly.
- Frame it
- And push the button.
Okay, great.
I'll steal your photographer job.
I'll steal your firefighter job.
- Okay.
- Ready?
Smile!
[Poncho]
Who do you think ripped the photo?
I have no idea.
For a long time,
I knew nothing about this picture.
I can't believe Betty had it.
It was Hugo.
I think it was him, because he didn't want
to be linked to any of this.
Yes.
No, it must have been Flor.
She was very suspicious about him.
If I had only paid her more attention,
if I had listened to her more,
maybe she'd be here today,
and this whole story would be different.
Hey, it wasn't your fault.
Listen, of all the apartments we visited,
I liked the last one the most.
I mean, it has the best view.
But the bathroom was claustrophobic.
It had no windows!
Anyway, of all the ones we visited,
it was the best one.
What do you think, honey?
That I'm happy living here.
Are you fine? Do you feel okay?
Yes, I'm just a little dizzy.
Oh, no, Rosario! No pregnancies!
Your career is just starting!
You can't ruin your beautiful body!
I'm not pregnant, Mom.
Then?
It's cancer.
I went too far with my diet,
I'm on an empty stomach.
Ah, okay. Then, let's go eat something.
But just "something," okay?
You're never too thin
for the fashion industry. Just look at me.
WE SELL 2023 CALENDARS
SIGNED BY THE FINEFIGHTERS
I don't understand
why we ordered so many boxes.
Don't get mad.
I'm not mad, but they're too many.
[firefighter]
I don't get why we made this.
For money, dude. What else?
I don't know.
Are you okay, dude?
It's a nice day, man.
I feel full of energy.
I'm learning a lot about life.
That's great, man. That's great.
Come get your calendars!
Irresistible firefighters!
Full-color sex-appeal, fire, and danger!
Hey, Miss!
Miss, take a look at this calendar!
Stop it, Molina.
The right balance
of power and tenderness!
Molina, stop, dude!
Tell me what your favorite month is!
[indistinct radio chatter]
REYNOSA CITY POLICE STATION
TAMAULIPAS STATE SECURITY
[Officer] Hugo González?
It doesn't ring a bell.
Like I told you,
he was this station's Captain.
But, well, that was in the early 90s.
I'm sure you weren't even born yet.
I'd have to search the registry,
but it will take a while.
Yes, no problem. Thank you.
Okay.
What was your name?
Ricardo Urzúa.
Ricardo Urzúa.
Partner, that man is looking
for some Hugo González's file.
Who is he?
Ricardo Urzúa, he said.
Ricardo Urzúa?
Okay, let me see.
What exactly do you want to know
about Mr. González?
I haven't visited this city
in a long time,
and I've had one doubt for a long time,
about whether he was somehow involved
in the death of someone dear to me.
Your face looks familiar,
from somewhere else.
Allow me.
Yes.
IN LOVING MEMORY OF FLOR LUJÁN ROCHA
It's strange.
Why does it hurt so much to visit a grave
of someone I didn't know?
Because it's your mom.
Of course, it hurts.
Olivia
I want to meet your dad.
I want to know where you come from.
I want to know everything about you.
I care about you, a lot.
You've been with me since the beginning,
and now you're here with my dad and me.
You're the one who knows me best.
I want to be that to you,
I want to be part of your life.
I want you to be part of my life, too.
Of course, I'll introduce you two.
Of course.
There's someone over there.
- What? Where?
- Hey!
What the hell?
- Don't let him escape!
- Poncho!
Poncho!
You! The lady with the black bag!
- Come and see.
- Relax, you're scaring them!
It will brighten your day.
What do you think?
Come on, it will make your day better!
I warrant it! I swear!
Hey, there! The man with his girlfriend!
This could be a good gift for her,
or for yourself!
Listen, I support your enthusiasm, but
we haven't sold anything all day.
We need to change strategies, now.
Pedraza!
How are you?
- Fine, and you?
- Fine, man.
It's a pity I couldn't be in the calendar.
I could have boasted these arms.
- For sure!
- Oh, you got it easy!
Pedraza.
I'm glad you're here, man.
I'm glad you're better.
We won't work together anymore.
Why?
I don't think I can return.
I need at least one year to recover.
But they'll keep bringing me here
to see you.
Besides, she wants some calendars.
You know I'm not jealous.
Yes, I'll take a few for my friends.
Okay, come and see them.
Look how great they look.
How many friends do you have?
- Gerardo.
- Some
Hi, kids!
Hi.
I'll bring you a tray of fries later.
Miss Gloria, is anything wrong?
No.
I just wanted to tell you
that I love you a lot,
and that you have my blessing.
Your blessing?
Love is love. You're my son-in-law.
I want to tell you that, as a mom,
I feel very proud of having a man like you
as my son-in-law.
You need to talk to Mayte.
It's not nice of you to lie to her.
You need to talk to her now.
Please.
Poncho, I wasn't very lucky.
See you at the hotel's entrance.
I think it's a bad idea for Poncho to go
to McAllen, and especially to Reynosa.
What's behind all this is not a game.
I know what I'm telling you.
Who are you? What the hell do you want?
The famous Reynosa Butcher is afraid!
You've been following me for a long time.
Well, here I am!
Hugo?
Is that you?
[bat thuds]
Are you crazy?
Yes, about you.
Why the hell did you tell everyone
what happened?
I only told my mom and
You shouldn't have, dude! Fabio
It was our thing!
Sorry, I was just so excited that
That you outed me in front of everyone?
You went through your process,
and you have a supporting mother,
but I have a girlfriend, and parents
that would rather die than have a gay son.
Gera, I want things to be okay between us.
That's it.
Gera Gera!
You screwed up, dude.
You screwed up.
Move.
What do you want?
I'll ask no questions.
You have your reasons not to tell me.
What are you talking about?
In any case,
you'll start chemotherapy
as soon as possible, Rosario.
Even if I have to take you by force.
Who told you?
It doesn't matter.
It was that damn Penélope, right?
Hey, Rosario! Who cares?
What matters is that I know,
and I'll be with you.
Anything else doesn't matter.
Will you listen to me?
I won't leave until you say yes.
I just don't want to do this alone.
You won't be alone.
I'll be there
where I have to be. You're not alone.
Okay?
- [cries]
- Come here.
You're not alone.
I came as soon as I saw your message.
What's wrong?
The harder I try to improve my life,
the harder it gets for me.
Now, my dad is in hospital
and I don't know what to do.
How can I help?
The way you know best.
I told you he'd say yes.
How I'd like my son Fabio
to have a partner like Gerardo,
instead of those boys
that have only made him suffer!
But not this way, not with lies.
Gerardo should talk to Mayte
and clear things up already.
That poor girl is obsessed with him.
She's the only one who hasn't realized
that that boy likes men.
It's not that obvious, either.
Maybe
but I have a very good radar. I'm a mom.
But before anything else, I'm a woman.
I won't let any of you to get hurt.
Why does love have to hurt like this?
Because it's not love if it hurts.
Who taught you that?
What's wrong?
[sobs] I just remembered something.
But it's getting late, I better leave.
[Leonora]
The famous Hugo González.
From officer to commissioner of Reynosa,
Tamaulipas, between 1992 and 1998.
He was quite young
for such an important role.
He had a meteoric rise
and he was a very controversial guy.
I know very well how those meteoric rises
happen here, in the police force.
But, how did you find out about him?
Researching, and reviewing information
over and over.
The first person
who told me about him was
that old sexist journalist,
Elías Solorzano.
He thought that Hugo González
was the rotten apple
that ruined many officers in Reynosa.
Then
your theory is that Hugo González is
the Reynosa Butcher?
What I know for sure is that González
was friends with Urzúa
and with his wife. Actually, he's
godfather to Poncho, Urzúa's son.
What happened to that guy?
Did he retire? Was he fired?
I just requested that information.
It wouldn't surprise me if Hugo knew
I was undercover,
trying to remove his rotten apples.
Or if he was the one
following me in that car.
Or if he was the one following Poncho.
This can't be.
"Hugo González died one year
after Urzúa was sent to prison."
That's it.
My main suspect is dead.
Ricardo! Ricardo, we need to help him.
I don't know where he is. I swear,
I tried to follow him but I couldn't.
Wait, I don't understand. What's wrong?
Poncho! I went with him to the cemetery.
He wanted to bring his mom flowers.
Then, he told me someone was spying him
and ran after that man.
Poncho is in grave danger,
but he doesn't even know it.
We need to help him. If anything happens
to him, I won't forgive myself.
[groans]
[grunts]
What the hell?
[panting]
Damn it!
Dear God!
[screams] Hey!
Help me!
Is there anyone out there?
Hey!
Help me!
