High Heat (2022) s01e18 Episode Script

POSSIBLE NEW VICTIM OF THE REYNOSA BUTCHER
25 YEAR OLD WOMAN DISAPPEARED
[indistinct chattering]
Hugo, please leave that. It's important.
Someone's been stalking Flor.
Why are you so sure of that, buddy?
She told me. She's very scared.
Women always exaggerate.
She's not exaggerating.
I saw footsteps outside my house.
[sobs]
[Flor gasps]
Well, we can have an officer
watch your house if you want.
But it will be one fewer officer
chasing drug dealers.
So, what should we do?
Done. I'll send you the copies later,
I have to leave now.
Really?
Yes, I have to work.
OK, take care.
- Thanks.
- See you, babies.
- Thanks.
- I'll be right back.
[Flor] Yes, honey.
Hugo, thanks for everything.
You really took care of every detail.
That's the way I am, you know that.
We've known each other for years, Ricardo.
Yes, everyone needs a Hugo in their lives.
Yeah. The world would be better, right?
Hey, I want to ask you a favor.
Another? Who's being stalked now?
No, I want you to be Poncho's godfather.
I mean, Flor chose Daniel's godparents,
and now I'm choosing you.
Of course! Sure, count on me.
I didn't plan to be a father.
He'd be like my own son.
Of course!
WATCH YOUR PREGNANCY
[Priest] Do you have
the names of the children?
Alfonso.
- [Ricardo] Daniel.
- [Priest] Alfonso Urzúa Luján,
you are baptized in the name of the
Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Amen, little Poncho.
[baby coos]
[Poncho grunts]
You damn son of a bitch!
You killed them! You killed my brother.
Listen, kid I'm not here
to answer your questions.
You ruined our lives, asshole!
Why did you do it? Why did you kill them?
Do you believe in God?
If you believe in God or in anything else,
this is a good moment to start praying.
I'm convinced
that Hugo González is still alive.
Who are you? Are you Hugo?
Are you my godfather?
What are you talking about? What Hugo?
What are you talking about?
Here's your godfather.
The famous Hugo González.
If you're not Hugo, then who are you?
Who the hell are you?
The chat is over!
I warned you many times
and you didn't listen. If you were
anyone else, you'd be six feet under.
I told you to start praying.
All of this is happening because you stuck
your nose where no one invited you.
[breathes heavily]
The last thing he told her was that he'd
change the tickets to fly back to Mexico.
When she came out of the bathroom,
the door was open
and Poncho had disappeared.
Did he board his plane to Mexico?
I called the airline.
He didn't board his plane.
I called the hotel too,
but they have no security cameras.
We're forced to believe her.
We have no choice.
Leonora!
I just got this message. It says,
"September 16 Street and Route E-99."
I don't get it.
Those streets are in Reynosa's
industrial area, near the airport.
I received a message like that
when Poncho was in a metal barrel too,
telling me where he was.
I don't get who's sending those,
or why he chose me.
I want all your available units
in that address, now.
- [Officer] Got it.
- You're coming with me.
I had never seen Gerardo like this.
He's sad, like he's dead in life.
I don't recognize him.
Gerardo? Your brother just called.
Camila's in labor.
In a few hours, you'll be an uncle
and I'll be a grandma.
Gloria made you some soup.
No, I'm not hungry.
Well, too bad.
I won't leave until you eat it.
- [cell phone beeps]
- [line rings]
Why the hell are you not picking up?
[ringing continues]
[police sirens blare]
His mom says it's not my fault,
but I'm his girlfriend.
I'm supposed to make him happy.
Gerardo's happiness doesn't depend on you.
It depends on him, just him.
But I love him. I love what we have.
And what do you have?
Tell me, what do you have?
Your dad will have a fence built
around the pool,
so little Ramón can walk around it.
It would be nice if he had
a cousin he could walk with.
Enough, Mom.
Stop it with that whole cousins story.
Leave me alone, please.
Do you and Mayte have
any issues I don't?
I'm the one with the issue.
[Rosario] Fabio told me about your mom.
That she's in jail,
and what she did to your dad.
Yes, I asked her to say that.
I'd rather everyone knows it already.
It's still better than hiding secrets
from people I
- [phone rings]
- Oh, it's my agent. Hold that.
[phone line ringing]
[sighs]
Where the hell are you?
Where the hell are you?
- Dammit.
- [phone beeps]
Where the hell are you?
Gerardo and I have many things in common.
We love each other, we get along,
both of us like watching movies
and eating sushi.
[Gerardo] Why the hell
do you pressure people
to get married and have kids?
Well, all I want is for you to be happy.
Well, don't tell me
how the hell I need to live my life.
Yes, I feel better than ever.
OK, I'll be there. Yes.
I'll bring my clothes and all my stuff.
Thanks for calling. See you tomorrow.
- Bye.
- [phone beeps]
Why have you followed me?
Why don't you shut up?
You followed me to McAllen.
You stayed in the same hotel I did.
You hit me in the back of my head, right?
Where's Olivia?
Where's Olivia?
[police sirens blare]
What you just mentioned
is stuff 99.9 percent of people like.
Have you gone shopping while hungry?
It's a terrible idea, right? You'll buy
anything just to calm your belly.
The fear of being alone is
like buying groceries while hungry.
But it's your heart that's hungry.
Hey! The girl that was with me
Where is she? What did you do to her?
[grunts, groans]
[Poncho groans]
I told you to shut your mouth.
No, no, no.
Save it. I have a photo session tomorrow.
It's my job.
But you're still weak.
Well, I look healthier than you.
Is it so terrible
to want someone to love you?
What's terrible is to not realize
how things are.
You should fall in love with someone
who feels his life is better
because he's by your side,
and you don't have that.
She asked.
Yes, I'm much better. Thanks a lot.
[sirens blare]
[Poncho whimpers]
Dammit, I got back-stabbed.
[Officer] You can't pass.
Please! Let me in, officer!
I'm an idiot!
Sorry, kid.
I swear this isn't personal.
Who am I kidding? It's very personal.
No, no, no, no, no, no!
Poncho!
Follow him! Don't let him escape!
Poncho!
Poncho, are you OK?
Yes.
What did he do?
- He shot my arm.
- Anything else?
No, that's all.
Call an ambulance.
[gunshots blast]
[panting]
It's him!
It's him!
[Olivia] Leonora!
He just escaped in a black pickup.
Chase him! I want all available units
chasing that black pickup.
- What about that ambulance?
- He's losing too much blood!
The wound isn't deep. Calm down,
he'll be OK. The ambulance is coming.
- Calm down.
- I thought he had you too.
- No.
- [Poncho pants]
Are you OK?
You're unbelievable.
I saw the city was a disaster
and felt I had a duty to help here.
Well, the mom and the baby
were taken to the hospital.
You did your part. You can leave now.
And are these blackouts related
to your robberies?
Listen, call me a thief again,
and I'll stop being diplomatic.
I don't care about your feelings,
but I care about this station.
The boys are coming.
I'll leave, but I promise you something.
What will you promise me?
That you can trust me, Ángel.
Leave everything to me,
I know how to help you.
So? Don't you think you're too old
for filth like this?
- [EMT] Watch your head.
- [EMT 2] This way, Miss.
What's wrong? Are you OK?
I love you. I love you.
Lie down.
AMBULANCE
[siren blares]
[dance music plays]
[music continues]
[both] Hey!
I can't believe I found through Instagram
that my friend is out partying.
- What a jerk!
- Where were you all this time, man?
You know, I had lots of work
and studying to do.
No way. If a man forgets his friends,
it's because he's in love.
Is he handsome? Is he a good kisser?
There's no one, dude.
Well, the guy I was seeing
was just curious, you know?
But who needs an indecisive guy
when we're in a place with handsome guys
who've made up their mind?
Right. I'll introduce you to someone.
- [knock on door]
- Come in.
[Gloria] Can I cook you anything?
You haven't eaten anything today.
Besides, the city welcomed you back
by raining on you.
Don't worry, I'm OK.
Won't you tell me about your trip?
Going back to Reynosa
must have been intense.
Fine. Everything was fine.
Well, I have all night
to hear your stories.
Gloria, I'd like to talk
about that kiss from the other day.
Yes?
I'm rebuilding my life.
My past, my present
It's like I'm being born again,
and I realize I've lost
many years of my life.
Yes, I understand that.
Actually, I'd like it if we could
In this moment, I can't love anyone.
The only thing I can think of
is recovering what's mine.
I need to get my mind straight.
Everything else has to wait.
Yes, sure. I completely understand.
Of course I do.
Yes, that's the way it should be.
I get it.
No, don't worry. I'm an adult woman,
I know what this is like. I understand.
Don't worry. Really.
If you need anything from the kitchen,
just go get it. Good night.
I'm sorry, Raúl. This happened
because I stopped thinking about you.
I promise that, from now on,
I'll be the most devout wife in the world.
I won't think of anyone else but you.
Rest well.
Fabio is my classmate. This guy's a nerd.
Tell him about the web contest you won.
He appeared on a YouTube show.
Yes, but that got pulled quickly.
Do you want anything to drink, Fabio?
Bring him a raspberry gin.
A raspberry gin, dude?
Dude, you won't get a boyfriend
with this little enthusiasm.
I don't want a boyfriend.
Well, someone to forget the curious guy.
You never say no to a few kisses.
Besides, he's a barman.
You'll get free drinks, guaranteed.
[chuckles]
A special drink
for the most handsome guy in the party.
Oh, I think someone's calling me. See you.
It's lovely. Thanks.
Not as much as you.
Dude, no!
I don't want to!
[Poncho, voiceover] Who are you?
Are you Hugo? My godfather?
You damn son of a bitch!
You killed my brother.
If you're not Hugo,
then who the hell are you?
[gun blasts]
The girl that was with me
Where is she? What did you do to her?
- [gun blasts]
- [Poncho yells]
[thinking] Dammit, I got back-stabbed.
[Poncho] No, no, no, no, no, no!
I still don't get why you insisted so much
on me joining you.
I don't like hospitals. What can I say?
I don't like prisons,
but I don't ask anyone to join me.
Damn. Why would you visit a prison?
Forget it. It's not something
to discuss in a hospital.
Well, you should tell me sooner or later.
You go. I'll wait for you here.
Wait, what? The baby is already family.
You have to meet him.
Slow down, dude.
That baby has a dad already.
Well, I brought him to the world.
It's pretty similar.
Come on.
Yes, no problem.
I can pay the first installment
and get a signature for the IOU this week.
Right now?
No problem. I'll be there in an hour.
[phone beeps]
Do you want to join me?
Me?
Yes. I have to do some errands.
It takes time and they might be boring,
but it should be fun with you there.
Well I can do it, for the station.
We need to save the station.
Who's better than you
to join me in this mission?
Can you give me a few minutes?
I won't take long. I need to do something.
Yes, sure. Go ahead.
Raúl, sorry about what I said last night.
There's a change of plans.
I was a devout wife already.
I want to be a fun girlfriend now.
Honey, wish me luck.
Help me.
Does it look like him?
Yes, a lot.
Are you sure? Could you see his face well?
Of course. It's the same man
we came across in McAllen.
We saw him in the hotel, remember?
The man with the mug.
I met him on the street later,
and I thought it was a coincidence.
So, he's been following you for long.
So it seems, and I didn't realize it.
Did you find him last night?
No. The guy disappeared, just like that.
We'll go back to Mexico City. Don't worry,
you'll be protected all day.
This will be very useful, Poncho.
We're getting closer to him, I feel it.
Do you need help?
If I needed help, I'd ask for it.
Hidalgo's wool order just arrived.
Cool.
They're happy to have partnered with us.
At least someone is happy.
Can I check something on the PC?
Right now?
Not if you need it.
Oh, yeah, yeah. I got distracted.
Just use it, all right.
- You know, I can use it later.
- Is anything wrong?
You know exactly what's wrong.
Let's not do this to each other, Fabio.
Do what? You're the one
who pretends to care about me
to tell yourself a man can like you.
Does it boost your self-esteem?
Enough, man. You were curious.
You kissed a guy. Leave me alone.
People like you hurt people like me.
Look at that, champ.
You have your mother's eyes.
That's what everyone says.
You'll have to be nice to your mom.
She worked a lot yesterday
to get you here.
We worked. It was a team effort.
What about you? Are you OK?
Do you need anything?
I need to sleep.
Maybe we should let her
get some rest, right?
Hm-hmm.
Should I?
Let me. It's almost time to feed him.
Bye, champ.
We'll be here for two more days,
in case you want to visit Julia.
[Julián] Sure.
If you need anything
Thanks.
Goodbye. Let's go.
This is what the boys gave me
for the calendar.
And these are my savings for my father.
Well, I can start renegotiating our debts
with this. Let's go.
- Yes.
- [cell phone buzzes]
UNKNOWN NUMBER
INCOMING CALL
Hello?
Hello?
Is everything fine?
Yes, it must be just some bored kid.
I'll keep you informed.
Please, tell me if the power comes back.
OK.
2023 CALENDAR SALE
[man] Who said me? Come on, show me the
cash! Show me the cash! That's it.
[Ricardo] That's great.
This was a real success.
If these boys keep going at this rate,
they'll become stars soon.
Yes. That's great.
Ana! What a surprise.
Is there anything else left?
No. No, no, no.
I just came to say goodbye to the house.
Don't worry, I understand.
Take all the time you need.
[both giggling]
Do you like it?
I love it.
[Gerardo] Mayte, we need to talk.
There's something I need to say.
Listen, I know
I've been pressing you a lot.
And I swear that I know
you can't force love, and
maybe I won't be
the woman to make you happy, but
Who said you don't make me happy?
You didn't look happy at the hotel.
Yes, because I'm an idiot
who doesn't value the woman by his side.
Here, sit down.
Listen, I've been thinking a lot.
I think it's time to formalize things.
I know things haven't been OK lately,
but I don't want to think things anymore.
It's time to take this to the next level.
OK?
I thought
I thought you were breaking up with me.
[Mayte laughs]
I'll make you so happy.
We'll be the happiest family in the world.
Well, that covers half of the debt.
What can we do about the rest,
so that the interest rates
won't smother us?
Do you know who you're talking to?
He's a firefighter.
Yes, he's a firefighter in his heart.
You know how they are.
Men of their word.
OK.
- Is it complete?
- Yes, sir.
- Thanks.
- Excuse me.
All right, moving on
You have to bring this signed by tomorrow.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Line 8
Let me help you.
Are you ready to join your mom
and your brother in hell?
What's wrong?
- Are you OK?
- Yes, everything's fine.
- What's wrong?
- It's OK.
This isn't personal.
Who am I kidding? It's very personal.
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
Is everything clear?
[all] Yes, sir!
Captain Linares, where were you?
I was waiting for you.
I was solving some personal issues.
My apologies.
I see those personal issues are frequent.
I was talking to the acting Lieutenant,
but I didn't want to state my decision
until you were present, Linares.
Tell me.
The Committee decided to reinstate
Captain Ricardo Urzúa to this station.
As you might remember, he helped
successfully solve two emergencies.
He's an experienced, useful asset.
He made mistakes,
but we can't afford to lose him.
Listen, he's an impostor.
He lied to us all.
My second decision is the immediate
return of firefighter Olivia Serrano.
She filed a complaint, and the Committee
didn't find any evidence of wrongdoing.
[firefighters clap]
Then, what will happen to me?
[cell phone rings]
Officer Robledo here.
No. We haven't taken off yet. Tell me.
What?
Are you sure about that?
Send me all that info immediately
to my mail, please.
Thanks.
What's wrong? Is everything fine?
No.
The remains we dug up
don't belong to Hugo González.
What? But the tombstone had his name.
Of course, because they buried someone
to make us think Hugo González is dead.
Your godfather is alive, Poncho.
If you were anyone else,
you'd be six feet under already.
I knew it. Hugo González was
the one who kidnapped me.
I was face to face
with the Reynosa Butcher.
