[Flor sobs]
[panting]
[sobs]
Dani.
Ponchito.
I'm gonna have to take you away from here

better care of you.
You're no longer safe here.
ADMISSION CERTIFICATE
CHILD REGISTRATION
[Isabel] I need you to
take care of them for me.
Ma'am, women like you come here every day.
We don't have the means
to accept any more children.
Please.
I'm begging you.
[Nun] Maybe
if you could come back next week,
during office hours,
you can fill me in on your case, and
Sister, I can't come back later. I can't!
[Hugo] Isabel.
Let's go. It's late.
I can't. I'm in the middle
of something here.
We're going now.
Excuse us.
Easy.
It's all right.
Please, help me out.
Feed them.
[baby continues crying]
WITNESSES
DON'T LET HUGO GONZÁLEZ
COME NEAR THE TWINS
A NETFLIX SERIES
[Olivia gasps]
We were here,
at Flor's grave.
- Poncho?
- [Leonora] No, Ricardo. This is Leonora.
- I'd like
- I can't right now, Leonora.
I'd like to talk about Hugo González.
I know you were friends years ago.
Poncho is missing.
This is not a good time.
Where are you? What happened exactly?
I just got a message.
From Poncho?
From a private number.
RICARDO KNOWS WHERE PONCHO IS
What's this, Ricardo?
"Ricardo knows
where Poncho is."
- Is that true?
- Of course not!
I have no idea where my son is.
Who sent you this?
I don't know.
Ricardo, can you hear me?
- [Leonora] Where are you?
- I just got another one.
What does it say?
"Poncho is where Ricardo
stole a mirror for his car."
What's this?
Is it a riddle, a game, or what?
No, no, no.
Leonora, are you still there?
Yeah, I'm here.
[Ricardo] I don't know
whether you're still at the Journal,
but I need you
to call the Reynosa Police Department
and tell them
to go the junkyard north of town.
It's the only junkyard there,
but please
tell them it's really urgent!
Come on, let's go!
No! You don't have to talk to anybody.
This is between Gerardo and me.
- Nobody else!
- That's not true.
Because Mayte is in the middle of this.
And you'd rather protect Mayte
than your own son.
For the first time, a man takes
a real interest in me, Mom.
For the first time
in my whole fucking life.
Now because of you,
he won't even see me.
[Gloria sighs]
Tell me how to make this right.
Leave me alone. Leave me alone!
What What is wrong?
[sobs] I made a mistake.
I screwed up.
My son hates me.
That's not true.
Please talk to him.
Yes, tell him I made a mistake
and I can do anything he wants.
I'm sorry, but
nothing I tell Fabio now will do any good.
I'm the worst adviser
he could find right now.
- What were you writing about?
- Nothing.
Er
Nothing.
[sobs]
[Mayte] Is that the price
for just one night?
What if we removed the dinner for two?
No big change, then.
BANK
You know what? Yeah. I'll take
I'll take the luxury room with dinner
for two and massage sessions at the spa.
Yeah, I'm positive.
It's the most important
decision in my life.
Sure!
You don't dare to see in public the same
you see at home and on your computers.
- The human body and sex are natural!
- Drop it.
Since when are you
such a liberal? Chill out.
I have always been, dude.
A calendar, ma'am?
Ma'am.
- Is that you?
- For sure.
What a good photo!
It's much better than others I've seen.
Although it's easy to go vulgar,
but you
We can do special pricing
if you take more than one.
Starting on four.
My husband's gonna love it.
Your husband. Wow, so modern.
Emilio Mota Velazco, with the news.
Maybe you've seen him on TV.
And maybe you're gonna see him here.
I haven't watched TV since, like, 2008.
The Internet beat TV.
Thank you.
I don't know who you are.
Don't you recognize my hands?
Never mind.
I'm just here to tell you you have
a date in the best company today.
- Today?
- Yeah.
Is Poncho here?
Ricardo, what are we doing here?
[young Ricardo] Hurry up!
I'm sure we can find
something useful here.
Look!
This one could do.
Help me out.
It's just like the one on my car.
Ricardo.
What did you see?
Ricardo! What the fuck is going on?
What? What is it?
[retches]
- What?
- It's Betty, they've killed her.
[gasps]
Five hundred thousand.
That's what I need.
Here's my monthly income.
It's not a lot, but
I'm a firefighter.
And I'm getting promoted.
They're about to confirm
I'm gonna be a station captain.
I see.
But I can't approve a loan
based on future income.
It must be based on the current one.
Five years ago, you requested two loans.
And I see some of the installments
were in arrears.
Yeah my dad was very ill.
Well He's still ill, so
The second loan hasn't been cleared yet.
And the next-to-last installment came due
at the beginning of this month.
Besides, I see you keep debts
with other financial institutions.
Based on this credit record
I'm sorry.
There's nothing I can do for you.
[exhales sharply]
[sighs]
[sirens blare]
[Olivia] Hurry up!
Hurry up!
Get him out!
"Get him out?"
Stand back.
This could be dangerous. Tools!
- Let me go!
- Help him.
- No!
- Help him.
Two Three!
[Ricardo] Poncho!
Poncho!
- Let me fucking go!
- Careful.
- Poncho!
- [officer] His head
Poncho, Poncho!
Poncho, are you all right?
Call an ambulance, please!
Breathe, Poncho.
Breathe.
Breathe. Are you okay?
[dance music plays]
If smiling doesn't come naturally,
don't smile.
There's something in your eyes
that intrigues me. Something like
- assumed sadness.
- [Ana laughs]
That's funny, considering
I've been more optimistic lately.
Does that optimism have something
to do with Molina and me?
A lot.
Cool.
- Although you called us horny brats.
- [Ana laughs]
- Gabi.
- [Gabi] What?
You're in deep, aren't you?
With what? Being a horny brat?
With Molina.
I guess as much as you are.
And how long
is this experiment gonna last?
I guess it doesn't have to end
as long as we're having a great time.
I don't want it to ever end.
What's on your mind?
Take a picture, and I'll tell you.
- [knock on door]
- [door opens]
Dinner is served.
I heard what happened.
Life isn't fair, Fabio.
You should get used to it.
It isn't easy
to be the kid who falls
in love with a classmate,
on whose locker they write "fag,"
or the one who dresses up as Madonna
for his best friend's 15th birthday party.
I know very well life isn't easy or fair.
But nobody made you dress up as Madonna.
That's not the point.
The point is that, if I had to put up
with that shit to meet Gera,
it was totally worth it.
But being this close
to starting something with him
And everything goes
down the drain? No way.
I can't deal with that.
Give him time.
Maybe he'll reconsider and reaches out
tomorrow to make things right.
[knock on door]
Dinner is ready.
I'm not hungry.
- Neither am I.
- [Rosario] Or me.
It looks like today
is not our brightest day.
At least Mayte is having fun for us.
She spent a shitload of dough
to spice things up with Gerardo, and
Based on how confident she was,
she must be having the best sex ever.
Where are you going?
I'm having the best party ever.
No, no, no. Listen to me, please.
Okay? I've already talked to Dr. García.
Everything's in place for surgery.
Precisely, I'm only asking
for an extension.
No, no, no. I can't pay up front.
This is about my father's life, okay?
But you're supposed to help people.
How can money
be the only thing on your mind?
- Please, breathe in deeply.
- Yeah.
- One more time.
- Yeah.
[sighs]
- How is he?
- [Ricardo] Better.
They were finishing up examining him,
but he looks fine. Thank God.
Have they returned your cell?
No.
The Police has it now.
They're still trying to track down
the person who texted me.
Are you gonna explain
why they texted you?
No fucking clue.
But that's not the question.
The real question here is
why you knew where they kept Poncho.
I found it out thanks to the text.
Many years ago,
Poncho and Daniel
hadn't even been born yet
One of my car's mirrors was stolen. So
[young Ricardo] No way. I'm not spending
money on a new mirror
if I can find one here.
Look at you.
And honorable firefighter
becomes a filthy thief.
This is a dump!
Why don't you better help me
find a mirror for my car?
"Poncho is where Ricardo
stole a mirror for his car."
The text was clear, wasn't it?
Who else knew about that mirror?
Only Hugo. He went there with me.
It was him! He took Poncho, he texted you!
But how could Hugo have your phone number?
I don't know.
[cell phone rings]
Hello?
Ricardo, this is Leonora again.
How are things there?
Better. More calm.
Poncho is calm and in good hands.
But I need to find answers.
And, for that,
I need to find somebody from my past.
That's precisely what I need
to talk about, Hugo González.
What do you know about Hugo?
He was
on Daniel and Elías Solorzano's sight.
I know you were old friends,
so I've been meaning to ask
Hugo González is precisely
the person from my past
that I need to find.
The guy's dead, Ricardo,
and I need to know where he's buried.
Wow!
This is amazing.
It's what we deserve, honey.
So, what's the plan?
Well
Champagne, dinner for two,
massages at the hotel spa
Will we be able to do all that?
There's time until tomorrow at noon.
Can you help me out with the champagne?
I'll get changed in the bathroom.
I have a surprise for you.
Another one?
Anything can happen tonight.
[crowd chatters]
You look beautiful.
It felt like my first kiss.
I'm sorry.
That's okay. Don't worry.
Anyway, I just came here to say
your new apartment was booked.
Now you just need to pay
a month in advance, the down payment.
Don't worry about the guarantor,
because that will be me.
Besides, it could also be under my name
Rosario, are you listening?
I don't want to leave here.
It's so comfortable.
I thought we were over that.
I'm over you making decisions for me.
You're so ungrateful.
Don't you realize
all the sacrifices I make for you?
Instead of doing my own stuff,
here I am, with you.
I didn't ask for anything from you.
I still gotta do it. I'm your mom.
Why don't you wait until I ask for it?
You never give me that chance.
You know what?
You don't have to do anything.
Don't worry. I'll show myself out.
Mom! Mom, I need you to know something!
Mom! Mom!
Mom!
[Rosario] Julián.
What are you doing here?
I'm in. I want to start tomorrow.
I'll be there.
I can't even say the word.
"Chemotherapy."
The more you say it,
the less important it will be.
I don't get it.
If Hugo's dead, who texted you?
Somebody who knew the story.
Somebody Hugo told about it.
Yeah, but there's so much
I don't understand.
Why did he take Poncho,
put him in that metal barrel,
and then texted you
so we could rescue him?
What did you want? Did you want him dead?
Would that have comforted you?
No, no, no.
That's not what I'm saying. Look
If a son of a bitch like The Butcher
wants to kill somebody, he just does it.
He doesn't go through all this trouble
or coded texts
Why the fuck would he do that?
I don't know.
I don't know. I can't think right now.
I'll go get some coffee.
Olivia.
Thank you
for being here with me.
With Poncho.
Yeah, right. With Poncho.
Don't you like the idea?
I like it, but it scares me.
I mean it's not that normal.
Normal? Really?
Running into a house in flames
because you want to isn't normal to me!
This would be a new way of being together.
But, if it's going to work,
it must be a free, unpressured choice.
I guess
we'd have to find a way
that accommodated the three of us.
But at least I know I have the ability
to love more than one person at a time.
And trust me, it rocks.
And, since there are no written rules,
we can come up with our own way
to make it work.
So?
What do you say?
Right on!
Come here.
Thank you so much.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
I'm doing overtime just so we can sell.
I'm also here because of that,
but you don't hear me whine about it.
Actually, I'm about to leave.
Just so you know.
Hey. Speaking of money,
I need to discuss something important.
Did they book you for a modeling agency?
No, Molina.
This is serious, dude.
What is it?
Linares is in a tight spot,
and, even though he's a fucker,
I think we should help.
Fuck him.
Molina, being a firefighter
is being part of a team.
We don't know who could be screwed next.
It's something about his dad.
I think we should help him.
[humming]
[Penélope] Good morning.
Good morning.
We're gonna need two fewer plates.
Fabio left early, and I'm not eating.
What? You left me all alone at dinner,
and you're not having breakfast today?
Don't tell me I've lost
my magic touch for cooking.
No, that's not it, Glorita. It's just
we all have so much on our minds, so
Sweetie, I'm worried about you.
You've been sad for days now.
If you need a shoulder to cry on
I don't cry, ma'am.
Well, you should, sweetie.
Because you should cry
your blues out of your body.
Otherwise, it will stick to your soul.
It's not so much sadness as anger.
Who did something to you?
Tell me who it was. You're not alone.
- I'm
- Thanks.
But there's no need.
I didn't know you'd be here.
We're still partners, right?
Of course. Personal issues
stay at home, don't they?
- Sure.
- Yeah.
Nice scarf.
It's my sadness scarf.
How was the five-star hotel?
The hotel was great.
Everything else was fucked up.
That's what happens
when you try to be something you're not.
Fabio, I said this wasn't easy for me.
What? Accepting that you like me?
Or being with Mayte
out of fear of coming out?
A word of advice from somebody
who came out the day he was born:
don't let fear fuck up your life.
I don't want to do any harm.
Everything passes.
When you think your life
will go to shit that passes, too.
And the world keeps turning.
It looks lovely!
You made it.
Is it too early?
No. I was waiting for you.
This is Fabio,
my partner.
[Mom] Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too. I'm his partner.
My pleasure.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
These are my parents.
[Mom] Yes, his parents.
They will call out your name in a moment.
Thank you.
Let's go.
Ready?
[sighs] No.
When you come out,
you will realize you were always ready.
I don't know whether you'll feel better
or much worse.
But you'll be different.
And I'll be here. Okay?
Rosario Sarmiento?
- [Rosario] Yes.
- You can come in now.
Here. I brought this for you.
This way, please.
Please come in.
Have they said when I can leave?
No. But I can get the doctor.
I'll be right back.
- Hey.
- What?
Where's Ricardo?
In the cafeteria. Why?
I can't stop thinking I got kidnapped
the moment we were not with him.
Poncho, will you go on with your doubts?
What? It's too much of a coincidence.
I don't believe in them anymore.
What's your theory?
Ricardo shoved you into the barrel
and then texted me to rescue you?
Isn't it too much of a coincidence?
It makes no sense!
No, but
What?
What happened? Why that face?
[Leonora] Thanks.
Leonora?
- What?
- [Leonora] Hi.
I'm on duty right now,
so call me Officer
Robledo.
What?
You're a cop?
- You're kidding, right?
- No.
I came to Reynosa because I was ordered
to exhume your godfather's remains.
Hugo González's.
I'm gonna need your statement,
as well as his.
