Sisters' Feud (2024) s01e19 Episode Script
The belly of the dragon
1
[wind blowing]
[Efraín] All right, so
THE GOLD MAFIA
Now, we know that Máximo
was El Compa.
[tense music playing]
And that Roberto
was the one leaking him information
about the police.
But, now,
Antonia
has taken over El Compa's position.
[screaming]
And our beloved governor
seems to be helping her along.
How else do you explain how Antionia
got the concession for the mine?
I'm sure that Antonia
paid this bastard a shit-ton.
And we know
he had direct contact with Maximo.
Sanabria is so fucking corrupt.
- But we don't have enough evidence.
- We'd better find it, Efraín.
Because if we don't,
we're screwed, the two of us.
There's something we're not seeing.
There's only one way I know
to get more information.
But it's very dangerous.
Are you in?
SISTERS' FUED
I can tell from the look
in your eyes it's bad.
And I can tell from the look in yours,
that you already knew.
I'm afraid that your body is, uh
Rejecting the new organ.
I wish you had come to see me sooner!
Well, the pain only started to get worse
after my fight with Lucas.
At least you called me.
I would've preferred not to.
I just
wanted to have hope.
That I did have a future.
[Antonia] Doctor Vidal?
[man on phone] That's the man
I saw leaving the house, boss.
- He was there for a long time.
- God!
That can only mean one thing, huh?
[sighs]
The transplant isn't working out.
What?
But they gave you Teresa's kidney.
The doctor said you were doing well.
- That you were fine.
- I know, I know.
But that was then.
[emotional music playing]
My body is rejecting the kidney.
I was already in pain,
it just got worse after the fight.
Okay.
Uh, okay, so what do we do now?
There's nothing to do.
No. No, no, no.
Uh, there has to be a medicine or
We'll figure it out.
We can get a second opinion
and start a new treatment.
Jacinta. Listen, hey.
I don't wanna leave you now.
You know that I don't.
-No. Pedro,
-But I can't do anything to change it.
You can't say that.
- Jacinta, baby. Baby, listen.
- No, please. No, no, no, no, no.
Listen to me, my love.
I promised to always stay by your side.
I wish I could keep my promise to you.
- Pedro, no
- I'm sorry.
Forgive me.
Forgive me.
[telephone line ringing]
[Efraín] I can't come
to the phone right now.
Leave me a message.
Hey.
It's me.
I'm sorry for
for leaving you this message
out of nowhere. Especially
after I walked away like I did.
It's just
[exhales] I need you.
And I don't want to cause you
any problems with Consuelo.
You're just the person
that I trust the most, and
Well, so many things have happened.
Antonia took the mine.
Pedro is very, very sick and
and Jacinta is about to give birth.
I'm just
completely in over my head.
I feel like I can't
I can't do it alone.
I need you, Efraín.
Down the stairs!
Keep moving, you bastard! Here.
[man whispering]
Who would've guessed?
The one and only Governor Sanabria.
[Sanabria] Who are you
and what do you want?
[groaning]
Don't try anything, asshole.
If you try to look at our faces,
I'll kill you!
- Come on, talk!
- [Sanabria] I already told you!
The mine thing happened years ago.
They ordered me to grant
the concession to the Zenteno family.
But I don't know anything else!
I was just the attorney.
Yeah, asshole,
and now you're the fucking governor!
- [punch landing]
- Ah!
- [groans]
- Tell me, asshole,
how much money did Antonia have to pay you
to make you turn over
the mining concession? Huh?
- How much!
- I don't know what you're talking about!
- You do know, you bastard!
- No, I swear I don't!
Who works for the Gold Mafia?
You and who else?
Is that your signature, motherfucker?
No that's not my signature. It's not!
What do you mean?
Of course it is, you piece of shit!
You're not leaving this place alive
unless you tell me
what's in that fucking box!
What were you and Antonia up to?
What's the encrypted information?
[Sanabria whimpering]
[Efraín] What's the password,
motherfucker?
What's the password?
FILE IS PASSWORD PROTECTED
[Efraín] Just tell me
the fucking password.
Let me go! I said I don't know anything!
This motherfucker's getting on my nerves.
- Ah!
- You better start cooperating.
You crazy? What's wrong with you?
- You?
- Yeah, that's right, asshole.
I'm Efraín, and I'm the same guy
that you messed with 20 years ago,
that you planted those drugs on.
The Efraín you got kicked off the force!
That's who I am, asshole.
No, no, no, no, no!
Don't Don't Don't kill me!
Man, you fucked up my life,
Now it's time I get even.
[sobbing] I don't wanna die!
Don't do this!
[whimpering]
Please, I don't wanna die! Don't kill me!
Who has the key to the cylinder?
Get us that damn key, asshole!
Antonia has the key. I swear!
- What'd you say?
- Antonia!
Where the fuck is it? Tell us where.
- I have no idea! I don't know!
- Yes, asshole, you do!
- You do know where she has it.
- I don't know!
So fucking tell me.
Antonia didn't do anything by herself.
Bernardo was heavily
involved in her business.
[dramatic music playing]
See, asshole?
See how much you fucking know?
Don't kill me, please!
[music fades]
[Jacinta] I really don't think
I can do this, Mom.
No.
You can.
You'll see you have the strength.
And the little person
who's growing inside here
will give it to you.
For them. For you.
For Pedro. Hmm?
You don't know what a mother can
No, you do know what a mother
is capable of doing for her child.
You know it better than most.
I know that you'll be able to do anything.
And you will have me right next to you.
I'll always be here for anything you need.
Hmm? Because you're not alone in this.
I love you both!
[both laugh]
Thank you.
It'll all be okay.
[mysterious music playing]
Just so you know,
I called Efraín.
[music continues]
I promised myself I wouldn't,
but with everything that's happened,
I felt overwhelmed, and
and I miss him.
What'd he tell you?
I got his voicemail.
I left a message.
- I know it was stupid.
- No, it's not that.
[door creaking]
You guys just need to face the truth.
You two are clearly
in love with each other.
So, don't let him get away.
Efraín adores you.
[music intensifies]
[tense music playing]
Can I do something?
What are you doing here?
Don't worry. It's me! It's Mom.
A mom always knows what to do
when her child is in need, huh?
- [Young Pedro laughing on TV]
- [toy car whirring]
[dramatic tone playing]
[Jacinta] You know,
that dragon's still in the house.
- Yeah?
- Mm-hmm.
Bernardo used to tell me
this story all the time.
He told Pedro the same story, actually.
What was the story about? How'd it go?
It goes
the dragon is hungry and
he always has to be fed because
the dragon has a belly full of secrets.
Or something.
- [chuckles]
- Yeah.
You sure you're not tired?
Wouldn't you rather lie down in bed
instead of sitting in
this uncomfortable chair?
Yeah.
Go sleep, I'll keep looking.
- Okay.
- I love you.
You too.
No, my love, it's not true.
Please tell me it's not true!
You can't die, my love!
How'd you know I'm sick again?
Just tell me what you need, okay?
Let me know how to help you through this.
You kidnapped Jacinta.
You tried to murder my child.
My love, I never imagined
you'd fall in love with Jacinta.
They betrayed me.
And yes, I'll admit that you're right.
I did also want to hurt Perla.
I wasn't thinking of you.
Forgive me, please. I'm begging you.
Jacinta was also your child.
You stole her from Perla just to hurt her.
No. No.
But you got bored with your daughter.
You wanted a son.
Why?
Why me?
And don't you lie.
For once, please,
tell me the truth.
They dropped off
this young boy a few months ago.
His mother is a drug addict.
[Antonia] From the first moment I saw you,
your little smile was
burned into my heart.
Hi there.
[emotional music playing]
You want it?
It's for you.
You opened up my soul,
while Jacinta rejected me,
I knew I was born to be your mom.
I already had a mother
and a father.
They were both alive.
[Antonia] Clara helped me
with the paperwork.
She helped me convince Teresa
that the best thing
was for me to adopt you.
She wouldn't have been able
to give you the life that I did.
What about my dad?
Hmm?
Did you convince him to give you his son?
I admit that
that he had a much harder time
accepting the adoption.
My son isn't for sale, lady.
You have to kill me
if you want to take him.
You asked for it.
[Pedro] I don't believe you.
You're a murderer.
Murdered both of my parents.
I saw it on the video.
No, I was just drunk then.
I don't even recall what I said.
I understand if you doubt me.
What you absolutely cannot doubt
is how much I love you
and everything that I've done for you.
Even if the transplant isn't working,
there's no need to worry.
I'll find another kidney. Okay?
What do you mean? Kill someone again?
No.
I have plenty of money now.
All the money in the world
couldn't save me now.
Why did you come here?
[emotional music playing]
I don't want a thing from you.
I want to be
with my family.
The one I chose.
Go away.
[sobbing]
No! No! No!
[sobbing]
[Perla] Thank you,
thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you!
As soon as I heard your message,
I had to see you.
- I feel like everything's falling apart.
- Hey, no, Perla; it's all right.
We'll manage.
- I'm here with you now.
- Thank you.
- I have some news though.
- What?
The key to open the metal box,
it has to be in this house.
- No.
- Yes.
It's not in the vault, or at the mine,
and Sanabria confirmed it has to be here.
It's not, I had the entire house
searched and we found nothing at all.
Look harder,
because it must be hidden somewhere.
I don't know.
We have to think,
whether it's in one of the books
or behind the paintings
or in some children's toy
or in the pantry or in the kitchen.
It has to be here.
"The dragon is hungry
and hiding many secrets."
What?
The dragon is hungry
and hiding its many secrets.
[sobbing]
Hey!
Did I wake you?
What's wrong?
[dramatic emotional music playing]
My mom came to see me.
What?
It's the only dragon in the house,
it has to be in here.
- What's this son of a bitch is hiding?
- Be careful.
Carefully, carefully.
Okay.
[dramatic music playing]
[Perla] Okay, carefully. Don't drop it.
Be very careful.
- Hold on, be careful!
- [Efraín] Okay, got it.
[Perla] Careful,
we don't know what's in here.
[Efraín] There we go.
- [Perla] There's nothing.
- It can't be.
[Perla] There's nothing? Wait!
- [gasps] Yes, there is!
- [metal clanks]
[dramatic music continues]
[Perla] I'm sure with this key
we'll finally get the proof
we've been looking for.
[music fades]
I don't give a damn about that key.
Are you here for your son?
By all means, go ahead.
All you'll find are nasty surprises.
Bernardo didn't hide
that key for no reason.
Antonia, give yourself up.
Move and I'll shoot this bitch.
- Stand back.
- Hey, hey, hey
Now, give me my gold.
You're gonna kill me?
With your own son dying in the next room?
[Jacinta] Mom, what's going on?
Go, Jacinta. Get out of here.
Both of you, stay in this room!
[suspenseful music playing]
- [grunts]
- Mrs. Antonia?
[Dolores yelps]
- Are you all right?
- I'm fine.
- Keep everyone in the house!
- Yes, I will. Be careful though.
- What? What happened?
- Please, Jacinta, I'm begging you.
- Go back to your room, lock the door.
- No way, Mom.
Protect yourself. Don't worry about me.
I'll be alright. Find somewhere to hide.
Be careful!
- Dolores.
- She went that way.
Just be careful, Perla.
[tense music playing]
[engine starting]
God fucking damn it!
- Hey! What happened? Where'd she go?
- She got away.
Pedro, sit down.
No! I can't just sit around,
not doing anything.
Please, go back to bed. Okay?
I need to know if Perla
and Dolores are alright.
What the hell was she thinking? Huh?
Coming here to cry over me
and playing the victim,
and making this big fucking mess?
Yes, I know, I know. But, Pedro,
you can't let yourself get worked up.
Okay?
So, come on.
They're all taking care of it.
I'm begging you, go back to bed. Okay?
Please.
[Efraín] Okay.
[Perla] Did it go in?
- [Efraín] Yeah.
- Okay, open it.
[Efraín] There we go.
How does it
[clicks, hisses]
Does it open here?
Why is it so heavy?
What could be inside this thing?
- This part has to open.
- How do I?
The bottom. Yeah, here.
What is it?
Let's see
[Efraín] What is it?
A token!
- What's a token?
- This is exactly what we need.
- And a memory card too?
- Okay. Yes. Hand me that.
This token here will give you a code
that I have to enter here.
But how do you turn this thing on?
Press right here, enter.
It'll give you a number, a code.
- Read me what it says, I'll enter it here.
- Okay.
-Twenty-three,
-Twenty-three.
-Forty-nine,
-Okay.
- [Perla] Seven, six.
- Seven. Six.
[beeps]
- Okay. Let's see here
- All done. It worked.
Let's look here.
[Perla] Title deed?
PROPERTY DEED
[both] "Public Registry of Commercial
Property for the State of Durango."
Wait, hold on.
On behalf of
DURANGO MINERS' COOPERATIVE
The Durango Miners' Cooperative?
What is that?
This is
This right here is exactly what
Bernardo and Antonia were trying to hide.
So this, this mine never even
belonged to the Zenteno's at all?
Like my father always said,
may he rest in peace,
without all you, this mine is nothing
but a useless stretch of desert.
Have we been fighting over a mine that
isn't even ours? Is that what this is?
It says here that the Zentenos took over
the concession from the miners by force!
We are not selling the mine!
[indistinct yelling]
And look! It says this whole thing started
with Rodrigo Zenteno, Bernardo's father.
And look who continued with the scam.
Bernardo.
And Sanabria.
The lawyer from when Antonia
opened the accounts.
- That's your signature, motherfucker?
- No, that's not my signature! It's not!
Bernardo was a thief all along!
Because his father stole
the concession from the miners
and Bernardo never did
anything in his power to give it back.
Antonia didn't either.
And on top of everything,
Antonia even wants the gold.
- [gasps] Look at this!
- What?
[Perla] Here are the transfers
to Sanabria.
- Let's see what else we find on this.
- Okay. Where is the This thing.
Yeah, that goes right in here.
I want to see what other
little surprises we'll find.
- Where is it? Here?
- Right there.
Okay.
Let's take a look.
[both] It's a video.
Okay, hit play.
Jacinta and Pedro,
if you're watching this video right now,
it's because you followed my clues
and found the key in the dragon.
Your father was a thief.
I was too ashamed to tell you.
I could have done things right,
but I always listened to my father.
Antonia knew as well.
She knew all about the concession.
And for all these years,
we've been holding onto
the mine illegally.
[Perla] What the
How is this possible? They did nothing!
How did no one do anything
to take the concession from Bernardo?
- I don't know. I really don't.
- Why didn't they?
I have no idea.
They must have silenced everybody somehow,
and if the people
didn't have the original documents,
there's no way
they could've claimed the truth.
He's just He's just an evil bastard.
He's always been an asshole.
Yes, he's a shitty person.
He was a very shitty person.
A criminal through and through.
MUNICIPAL PUBLIC SAFETY
OFFICE OF DURANGO
[Consuelo] Did you have any idea
that the original concession for the mine
belonged to the Miners' Cooperative?
You must have known.
After all those years and years
with Bernardo Zenteno.
Talk to me, Contreras.
If you're afraid of Sanabria,
you can rest assured that man
will rot in prison for corruption.
Yeah. Yeah, I knew about it.
I always knew that the concession
rightfully belonged
to the Miners' Cooperative.
I started working for Mr. Rodrigo and
and that's where I met Sanabria.
- He stuffed your mouth with gold?
- I mean
Bernardo was the boss' son, right?
And everything he ordered,
I had to carry out.
They threatened my family and
And you got used to the good life!
So you left your own people behind!
DAYS LATER
Today is a very important day.
One for the history books.
Today, we're ending
years of robbery and abuse.
I have here in my hands
the concession for the mine.
Which never belonged to the Zentenos.
It belonged to the miners,
and now it's back in their hands.
[cheering]
[joyful music playing]
Zorrito, thank you.
Without you, this wouldn't be possible.
I just did my job, Perla.
And I enjoyed doing it.
And you do it so well!
[both laughing]
Thank you. Really, thank you.
No, thank you.
Welcome back, Commissioner.
Thanks very much.
Congratulations, Commissioner Medina.
Congratulations, Co-Commissioner.
Thank you.
[music swelling]
[applauding]
Mmm. [chuckles]
- This is what we've been missing.
- Oh, yes.
I can tell you've really embraced
this new role of "Super Cop." Yeah?
Because you should be working.
No. I took the morning off
to be with my lady, huh?
Aw.
A Super Cop has to be
good for something, right?
Mm-hmm.
[both laughing]
[Perla] Hey.
- Can I be honest?
- Yeah.
I never
liked living in this house.
I never wanted to live here.
Even less knowing it
came from dirty money.
I think it's time I had a fresh start.
With you, of course.
- Of course.
- [Perla laughs]
Yeah.
- Together, we'll be a family.
- Mm-hmm.
But still
- until we track down Antonia
- What?
- I can't feel at peace.
- Perla.
I promise we'll catch her.
- Okay?
- Yeah.
With the help of the police, together.
- We'll do it.
- You're right, we will.
- Good.
- Mmm.
[emotional music playing]
I'll drink to that.
- Let's toast.
- With the champagne?
With the champagne.
[both laughing]
I can't believe that so much
has happened in so little time.
Yeah.
A lot has certainly happened.
But things are calmer now, at least.
Mm-hmm.
And the most
important thing is still to come.
How are you? How're you feeling?
We're good.
Especially since Lucas is behind bars.
Knowing that certainly helps.
Of course.
You deserve peace, Yeah?
Yes, and Sofía and Ana
have some important news to share.
Wait, Mom, this is
our moment, we wanna say it.
[Ana laughs]
Ana and I are getting married.
In two months.
[laughing]
- Wow! That's such great news!
- Thanks!
- Congratulations!
- Thank you!
- Congratulations! How nice!
- Thank you! Thank you, guys.
[Pedro] That's great! Congratulations!
- Yes.
- [Pedro chuckles]
Well, then
I have to get healthy.
Don't I?
I can't let you party without me.
We'd never dream of it.
You know what? It's decided,
you're going to be at the wedding.
- Hmm.
- [Sofía]You're gonna get better.
Yes.
[Lucas] Forgive me, Grandfather.
I didn't turn into
the good man you raised me to be.
But I swear I'm going to change.
When I get out of here,
I'll be someone
that everyone can be proud of.
So that's eight divided by two.
- Ah, okay.
- And the remainder is Exactly.
[woman clears throat]
Consuelo, I'm so glad you're here.
Um
I have an idea and I think
it will draw out Antonia.
Perla, Efraín is a cop again,
so he has to go by the law.
And now I have more power myself.
The best thing is
to just let us do our job.
- Exactly.
- Sure.
But I'm just as involved as you guys.
Maybe even more than you are.
And I think that Antonia might
be capable of doing whatever it takes
to get her gold.
Mmm.
So then why wouldn't we
use that very gold as bait?
Where are you keeping it?
[suspenseful music playing]
[Antonia] Bernardo screwed me.
You didn't even get
to enjoy the mine for long.
[cell phone ringing]
Perla?
[Perla] Antonia,
I have your gold.
If you want to get it back,
you'll have to come find it yourself.
Time to negotiate.
I'll send you a new location soon.
That fucker.
I should've killed her years ago.
Gather your men. We're taking the gold.
They've all left us.
They left as soon as they heard
about the mining concession.
Those motherfuckers!
Then I'll get it myself.
[suspenseful music builds, fades]
[dramatic music playing]
[wind blowing]
[Efraín] All right, so
THE GOLD MAFIA
Now, we know that Máximo
was El Compa.
[tense music playing]
And that Roberto
was the one leaking him information
about the police.
But, now,
Antonia
has taken over El Compa's position.
[screaming]
And our beloved governor
seems to be helping her along.
How else do you explain how Antionia
got the concession for the mine?
I'm sure that Antonia
paid this bastard a shit-ton.
And we know
he had direct contact with Maximo.
Sanabria is so fucking corrupt.
- But we don't have enough evidence.
- We'd better find it, Efraín.
Because if we don't,
we're screwed, the two of us.
There's something we're not seeing.
There's only one way I know
to get more information.
But it's very dangerous.
Are you in?
SISTERS' FUED
I can tell from the look
in your eyes it's bad.
And I can tell from the look in yours,
that you already knew.
I'm afraid that your body is, uh
Rejecting the new organ.
I wish you had come to see me sooner!
Well, the pain only started to get worse
after my fight with Lucas.
At least you called me.
I would've preferred not to.
I just
wanted to have hope.
That I did have a future.
[Antonia] Doctor Vidal?
[man on phone] That's the man
I saw leaving the house, boss.
- He was there for a long time.
- God!
That can only mean one thing, huh?
[sighs]
The transplant isn't working out.
What?
But they gave you Teresa's kidney.
The doctor said you were doing well.
- That you were fine.
- I know, I know.
But that was then.
[emotional music playing]
My body is rejecting the kidney.
I was already in pain,
it just got worse after the fight.
Okay.
Uh, okay, so what do we do now?
There's nothing to do.
No. No, no, no.
Uh, there has to be a medicine or
We'll figure it out.
We can get a second opinion
and start a new treatment.
Jacinta. Listen, hey.
I don't wanna leave you now.
You know that I don't.
-No. Pedro,
-But I can't do anything to change it.
You can't say that.
- Jacinta, baby. Baby, listen.
- No, please. No, no, no, no, no.
Listen to me, my love.
I promised to always stay by your side.
I wish I could keep my promise to you.
- Pedro, no
- I'm sorry.
Forgive me.
Forgive me.
[telephone line ringing]
[Efraín] I can't come
to the phone right now.
Leave me a message.
Hey.
It's me.
I'm sorry for
for leaving you this message
out of nowhere. Especially
after I walked away like I did.
It's just
[exhales] I need you.
And I don't want to cause you
any problems with Consuelo.
You're just the person
that I trust the most, and
Well, so many things have happened.
Antonia took the mine.
Pedro is very, very sick and
and Jacinta is about to give birth.
I'm just
completely in over my head.
I feel like I can't
I can't do it alone.
I need you, Efraín.
Down the stairs!
Keep moving, you bastard! Here.
[man whispering]
Who would've guessed?
The one and only Governor Sanabria.
[Sanabria] Who are you
and what do you want?
[groaning]
Don't try anything, asshole.
If you try to look at our faces,
I'll kill you!
- Come on, talk!
- [Sanabria] I already told you!
The mine thing happened years ago.
They ordered me to grant
the concession to the Zenteno family.
But I don't know anything else!
I was just the attorney.
Yeah, asshole,
and now you're the fucking governor!
- [punch landing]
- Ah!
- [groans]
- Tell me, asshole,
how much money did Antonia have to pay you
to make you turn over
the mining concession? Huh?
- How much!
- I don't know what you're talking about!
- You do know, you bastard!
- No, I swear I don't!
Who works for the Gold Mafia?
You and who else?
Is that your signature, motherfucker?
No that's not my signature. It's not!
What do you mean?
Of course it is, you piece of shit!
You're not leaving this place alive
unless you tell me
what's in that fucking box!
What were you and Antonia up to?
What's the encrypted information?
[Sanabria whimpering]
[Efraín] What's the password,
motherfucker?
What's the password?
FILE IS PASSWORD PROTECTED
[Efraín] Just tell me
the fucking password.
Let me go! I said I don't know anything!
This motherfucker's getting on my nerves.
- Ah!
- You better start cooperating.
You crazy? What's wrong with you?
- You?
- Yeah, that's right, asshole.
I'm Efraín, and I'm the same guy
that you messed with 20 years ago,
that you planted those drugs on.
The Efraín you got kicked off the force!
That's who I am, asshole.
No, no, no, no, no!
Don't Don't Don't kill me!
Man, you fucked up my life,
Now it's time I get even.
[sobbing] I don't wanna die!
Don't do this!
[whimpering]
Please, I don't wanna die! Don't kill me!
Who has the key to the cylinder?
Get us that damn key, asshole!
Antonia has the key. I swear!
- What'd you say?
- Antonia!
Where the fuck is it? Tell us where.
- I have no idea! I don't know!
- Yes, asshole, you do!
- You do know where she has it.
- I don't know!
So fucking tell me.
Antonia didn't do anything by herself.
Bernardo was heavily
involved in her business.
[dramatic music playing]
See, asshole?
See how much you fucking know?
Don't kill me, please!
[music fades]
[Jacinta] I really don't think
I can do this, Mom.
No.
You can.
You'll see you have the strength.
And the little person
who's growing inside here
will give it to you.
For them. For you.
For Pedro. Hmm?
You don't know what a mother can
No, you do know what a mother
is capable of doing for her child.
You know it better than most.
I know that you'll be able to do anything.
And you will have me right next to you.
I'll always be here for anything you need.
Hmm? Because you're not alone in this.
I love you both!
[both laugh]
Thank you.
It'll all be okay.
[mysterious music playing]
Just so you know,
I called Efraín.
[music continues]
I promised myself I wouldn't,
but with everything that's happened,
I felt overwhelmed, and
and I miss him.
What'd he tell you?
I got his voicemail.
I left a message.
- I know it was stupid.
- No, it's not that.
[door creaking]
You guys just need to face the truth.
You two are clearly
in love with each other.
So, don't let him get away.
Efraín adores you.
[music intensifies]
[tense music playing]
Can I do something?
What are you doing here?
Don't worry. It's me! It's Mom.
A mom always knows what to do
when her child is in need, huh?
- [Young Pedro laughing on TV]
- [toy car whirring]
[dramatic tone playing]
[Jacinta] You know,
that dragon's still in the house.
- Yeah?
- Mm-hmm.
Bernardo used to tell me
this story all the time.
He told Pedro the same story, actually.
What was the story about? How'd it go?
It goes
the dragon is hungry and
he always has to be fed because
the dragon has a belly full of secrets.
Or something.
- [chuckles]
- Yeah.
You sure you're not tired?
Wouldn't you rather lie down in bed
instead of sitting in
this uncomfortable chair?
Yeah.
Go sleep, I'll keep looking.
- Okay.
- I love you.
You too.
No, my love, it's not true.
Please tell me it's not true!
You can't die, my love!
How'd you know I'm sick again?
Just tell me what you need, okay?
Let me know how to help you through this.
You kidnapped Jacinta.
You tried to murder my child.
My love, I never imagined
you'd fall in love with Jacinta.
They betrayed me.
And yes, I'll admit that you're right.
I did also want to hurt Perla.
I wasn't thinking of you.
Forgive me, please. I'm begging you.
Jacinta was also your child.
You stole her from Perla just to hurt her.
No. No.
But you got bored with your daughter.
You wanted a son.
Why?
Why me?
And don't you lie.
For once, please,
tell me the truth.
They dropped off
this young boy a few months ago.
His mother is a drug addict.
[Antonia] From the first moment I saw you,
your little smile was
burned into my heart.
Hi there.
[emotional music playing]
You want it?
It's for you.
You opened up my soul,
while Jacinta rejected me,
I knew I was born to be your mom.
I already had a mother
and a father.
They were both alive.
[Antonia] Clara helped me
with the paperwork.
She helped me convince Teresa
that the best thing
was for me to adopt you.
She wouldn't have been able
to give you the life that I did.
What about my dad?
Hmm?
Did you convince him to give you his son?
I admit that
that he had a much harder time
accepting the adoption.
My son isn't for sale, lady.
You have to kill me
if you want to take him.
You asked for it.
[Pedro] I don't believe you.
You're a murderer.
Murdered both of my parents.
I saw it on the video.
No, I was just drunk then.
I don't even recall what I said.
I understand if you doubt me.
What you absolutely cannot doubt
is how much I love you
and everything that I've done for you.
Even if the transplant isn't working,
there's no need to worry.
I'll find another kidney. Okay?
What do you mean? Kill someone again?
No.
I have plenty of money now.
All the money in the world
couldn't save me now.
Why did you come here?
[emotional music playing]
I don't want a thing from you.
I want to be
with my family.
The one I chose.
Go away.
[sobbing]
No! No! No!
[sobbing]
[Perla] Thank you,
thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you!
As soon as I heard your message,
I had to see you.
- I feel like everything's falling apart.
- Hey, no, Perla; it's all right.
We'll manage.
- I'm here with you now.
- Thank you.
- I have some news though.
- What?
The key to open the metal box,
it has to be in this house.
- No.
- Yes.
It's not in the vault, or at the mine,
and Sanabria confirmed it has to be here.
It's not, I had the entire house
searched and we found nothing at all.
Look harder,
because it must be hidden somewhere.
I don't know.
We have to think,
whether it's in one of the books
or behind the paintings
or in some children's toy
or in the pantry or in the kitchen.
It has to be here.
"The dragon is hungry
and hiding many secrets."
What?
The dragon is hungry
and hiding its many secrets.
[sobbing]
Hey!
Did I wake you?
What's wrong?
[dramatic emotional music playing]
My mom came to see me.
What?
It's the only dragon in the house,
it has to be in here.
- What's this son of a bitch is hiding?
- Be careful.
Carefully, carefully.
Okay.
[dramatic music playing]
[Perla] Okay, carefully. Don't drop it.
Be very careful.
- Hold on, be careful!
- [Efraín] Okay, got it.
[Perla] Careful,
we don't know what's in here.
[Efraín] There we go.
- [Perla] There's nothing.
- It can't be.
[Perla] There's nothing? Wait!
- [gasps] Yes, there is!
- [metal clanks]
[dramatic music continues]
[Perla] I'm sure with this key
we'll finally get the proof
we've been looking for.
[music fades]
I don't give a damn about that key.
Are you here for your son?
By all means, go ahead.
All you'll find are nasty surprises.
Bernardo didn't hide
that key for no reason.
Antonia, give yourself up.
Move and I'll shoot this bitch.
- Stand back.
- Hey, hey, hey
Now, give me my gold.
You're gonna kill me?
With your own son dying in the next room?
[Jacinta] Mom, what's going on?
Go, Jacinta. Get out of here.
Both of you, stay in this room!
[suspenseful music playing]
- [grunts]
- Mrs. Antonia?
[Dolores yelps]
- Are you all right?
- I'm fine.
- Keep everyone in the house!
- Yes, I will. Be careful though.
- What? What happened?
- Please, Jacinta, I'm begging you.
- Go back to your room, lock the door.
- No way, Mom.
Protect yourself. Don't worry about me.
I'll be alright. Find somewhere to hide.
Be careful!
- Dolores.
- She went that way.
Just be careful, Perla.
[tense music playing]
[engine starting]
God fucking damn it!
- Hey! What happened? Where'd she go?
- She got away.
Pedro, sit down.
No! I can't just sit around,
not doing anything.
Please, go back to bed. Okay?
I need to know if Perla
and Dolores are alright.
What the hell was she thinking? Huh?
Coming here to cry over me
and playing the victim,
and making this big fucking mess?
Yes, I know, I know. But, Pedro,
you can't let yourself get worked up.
Okay?
So, come on.
They're all taking care of it.
I'm begging you, go back to bed. Okay?
Please.
[Efraín] Okay.
[Perla] Did it go in?
- [Efraín] Yeah.
- Okay, open it.
[Efraín] There we go.
How does it
[clicks, hisses]
Does it open here?
Why is it so heavy?
What could be inside this thing?
- This part has to open.
- How do I?
The bottom. Yeah, here.
What is it?
Let's see
[Efraín] What is it?
A token!
- What's a token?
- This is exactly what we need.
- And a memory card too?
- Okay. Yes. Hand me that.
This token here will give you a code
that I have to enter here.
But how do you turn this thing on?
Press right here, enter.
It'll give you a number, a code.
- Read me what it says, I'll enter it here.
- Okay.
-Twenty-three,
-Twenty-three.
-Forty-nine,
-Okay.
- [Perla] Seven, six.
- Seven. Six.
[beeps]
- Okay. Let's see here
- All done. It worked.
Let's look here.
[Perla] Title deed?
PROPERTY DEED
[both] "Public Registry of Commercial
Property for the State of Durango."
Wait, hold on.
On behalf of
DURANGO MINERS' COOPERATIVE
The Durango Miners' Cooperative?
What is that?
This is
This right here is exactly what
Bernardo and Antonia were trying to hide.
So this, this mine never even
belonged to the Zenteno's at all?
Like my father always said,
may he rest in peace,
without all you, this mine is nothing
but a useless stretch of desert.
Have we been fighting over a mine that
isn't even ours? Is that what this is?
It says here that the Zentenos took over
the concession from the miners by force!
We are not selling the mine!
[indistinct yelling]
And look! It says this whole thing started
with Rodrigo Zenteno, Bernardo's father.
And look who continued with the scam.
Bernardo.
And Sanabria.
The lawyer from when Antonia
opened the accounts.
- That's your signature, motherfucker?
- No, that's not my signature! It's not!
Bernardo was a thief all along!
Because his father stole
the concession from the miners
and Bernardo never did
anything in his power to give it back.
Antonia didn't either.
And on top of everything,
Antonia even wants the gold.
- [gasps] Look at this!
- What?
[Perla] Here are the transfers
to Sanabria.
- Let's see what else we find on this.
- Okay. Where is the This thing.
Yeah, that goes right in here.
I want to see what other
little surprises we'll find.
- Where is it? Here?
- Right there.
Okay.
Let's take a look.
[both] It's a video.
Okay, hit play.
Jacinta and Pedro,
if you're watching this video right now,
it's because you followed my clues
and found the key in the dragon.
Your father was a thief.
I was too ashamed to tell you.
I could have done things right,
but I always listened to my father.
Antonia knew as well.
She knew all about the concession.
And for all these years,
we've been holding onto
the mine illegally.
[Perla] What the
How is this possible? They did nothing!
How did no one do anything
to take the concession from Bernardo?
- I don't know. I really don't.
- Why didn't they?
I have no idea.
They must have silenced everybody somehow,
and if the people
didn't have the original documents,
there's no way
they could've claimed the truth.
He's just He's just an evil bastard.
He's always been an asshole.
Yes, he's a shitty person.
He was a very shitty person.
A criminal through and through.
MUNICIPAL PUBLIC SAFETY
OFFICE OF DURANGO
[Consuelo] Did you have any idea
that the original concession for the mine
belonged to the Miners' Cooperative?
You must have known.
After all those years and years
with Bernardo Zenteno.
Talk to me, Contreras.
If you're afraid of Sanabria,
you can rest assured that man
will rot in prison for corruption.
Yeah. Yeah, I knew about it.
I always knew that the concession
rightfully belonged
to the Miners' Cooperative.
I started working for Mr. Rodrigo and
and that's where I met Sanabria.
- He stuffed your mouth with gold?
- I mean
Bernardo was the boss' son, right?
And everything he ordered,
I had to carry out.
They threatened my family and
And you got used to the good life!
So you left your own people behind!
DAYS LATER
Today is a very important day.
One for the history books.
Today, we're ending
years of robbery and abuse.
I have here in my hands
the concession for the mine.
Which never belonged to the Zentenos.
It belonged to the miners,
and now it's back in their hands.
[cheering]
[joyful music playing]
Zorrito, thank you.
Without you, this wouldn't be possible.
I just did my job, Perla.
And I enjoyed doing it.
And you do it so well!
[both laughing]
Thank you. Really, thank you.
No, thank you.
Welcome back, Commissioner.
Thanks very much.
Congratulations, Commissioner Medina.
Congratulations, Co-Commissioner.
Thank you.
[music swelling]
[applauding]
Mmm. [chuckles]
- This is what we've been missing.
- Oh, yes.
I can tell you've really embraced
this new role of "Super Cop." Yeah?
Because you should be working.
No. I took the morning off
to be with my lady, huh?
Aw.
A Super Cop has to be
good for something, right?
Mm-hmm.
[both laughing]
[Perla] Hey.
- Can I be honest?
- Yeah.
I never
liked living in this house.
I never wanted to live here.
Even less knowing it
came from dirty money.
I think it's time I had a fresh start.
With you, of course.
- Of course.
- [Perla laughs]
Yeah.
- Together, we'll be a family.
- Mm-hmm.
But still
- until we track down Antonia
- What?
- I can't feel at peace.
- Perla.
I promise we'll catch her.
- Okay?
- Yeah.
With the help of the police, together.
- We'll do it.
- You're right, we will.
- Good.
- Mmm.
[emotional music playing]
I'll drink to that.
- Let's toast.
- With the champagne?
With the champagne.
[both laughing]
I can't believe that so much
has happened in so little time.
Yeah.
A lot has certainly happened.
But things are calmer now, at least.
Mm-hmm.
And the most
important thing is still to come.
How are you? How're you feeling?
We're good.
Especially since Lucas is behind bars.
Knowing that certainly helps.
Of course.
You deserve peace, Yeah?
Yes, and Sofía and Ana
have some important news to share.
Wait, Mom, this is
our moment, we wanna say it.
[Ana laughs]
Ana and I are getting married.
In two months.
[laughing]
- Wow! That's such great news!
- Thanks!
- Congratulations!
- Thank you!
- Congratulations! How nice!
- Thank you! Thank you, guys.
[Pedro] That's great! Congratulations!
- Yes.
- [Pedro chuckles]
Well, then
I have to get healthy.
Don't I?
I can't let you party without me.
We'd never dream of it.
You know what? It's decided,
you're going to be at the wedding.
- Hmm.
- [Sofía]You're gonna get better.
Yes.
[Lucas] Forgive me, Grandfather.
I didn't turn into
the good man you raised me to be.
But I swear I'm going to change.
When I get out of here,
I'll be someone
that everyone can be proud of.
So that's eight divided by two.
- Ah, okay.
- And the remainder is Exactly.
[woman clears throat]
Consuelo, I'm so glad you're here.
Um
I have an idea and I think
it will draw out Antonia.
Perla, Efraín is a cop again,
so he has to go by the law.
And now I have more power myself.
The best thing is
to just let us do our job.
- Exactly.
- Sure.
But I'm just as involved as you guys.
Maybe even more than you are.
And I think that Antonia might
be capable of doing whatever it takes
to get her gold.
Mmm.
So then why wouldn't we
use that very gold as bait?
Where are you keeping it?
[suspenseful music playing]
[Antonia] Bernardo screwed me.
You didn't even get
to enjoy the mine for long.
[cell phone ringing]
Perla?
[Perla] Antonia,
I have your gold.
If you want to get it back,
you'll have to come find it yourself.
Time to negotiate.
I'll send you a new location soon.
That fucker.
I should've killed her years ago.
Gather your men. We're taking the gold.
They've all left us.
They left as soon as they heard
about the mining concession.
Those motherfuckers!
Then I'll get it myself.
[suspenseful music builds, fades]
[dramatic music playing]
