THE POWER OF BEAUTY
"THIS STORY IS A WORK OF FICTION,
BASED ON AND INSPIRED BY
REAL-LIFE EVENTS."
So, what was happening with Berny?
He was not good.
He even asked for vacation time at the gym
and didn't want anyone to see him.
[romantic ballad plays over radio]
Honey, aren't you going to eat?
I can't remember the last time
you had a bite of something.
Mom, I'm not hungry.
Not even for one of Mrs. Gilma's
empanadas?
Because I can go
and bring you back a couple.
I have to go out anyway, and you must eat.
You're not just going to stay there
and waste away.

CALL PEDRO
-Who's sending you so many messages?
-Someone who's a fan.
[radio jingle] M Radio ♪
Did you send the message, Jessica?
I've sent seven messages with no answer.
Seven messages! [laughs]
Pedro, do you think your strategy
is working?
Why would some girl who's 17,
18 years old,
be dying to go out with an old man
who colors his roots?
[laughs]
But who's successful.
-Ah.
-Well, then.
And who can also place a bet if he has to.
-But I understand if you're scared.
-How about a bottle of gin
says that she won't answer?
-Let's make a bet.
-Perfect, we'll bet, then.
Fine, but it has to be today.
She shows up or she sends a message.
Today, not tomorrow
or the day after tomorrow.
Gentlemen, you're on air.
-Today.
-Today.
Today.
Today we're going to choose songs
for lovely ladies.
You tell me: What song would you dedicate
to the woman you consider
out of your league?
[Carlos] For that woman who should answer,
let's say,
-seven or eight messages from her friend.
-[Pedro] By the way, Carlos,
you shouldn't make fun of love.
You sound like me.
I'm not making fun.
I'm bringing a little sense of reality
into the mix.
Honestly, Carlitos, we've all experienced
this at some point.
We've all fallen under the spell
of sensuality, of beauty.
I've found there's a name for it
Stendhal Syndrome.
It's an intense emotional reaction
to contemplating beauty.
I think that happened to your friend.
Who knows?
Maybe that woman is interested in him.
I believe so, but let's hear
what our audience thinks.
[Carlos] The phone lines are open.
And don't forget,
this is "Cayendo la Tarde."
-[song begins playing]
-[Pedro laughs]
What did I tell you?
-Oh, you're leaving already?
-[radio jingle] M Radio ♪
[laughs] Yes. Another glass?
-No, no thanks. I'm fine.
-Okay.
-I do have to go. Excuse me.
-[laughs] No.
Don't be long.
I was going to tell you
to make yourself at home.
Well, I'm happy to see you here. Welcome.
You made me send you nine messages.
I don't think I've ever been
so humiliated.
No, I just don't have a cell phone.
So I had no way to call.
Rather, I preferred to come.
And now what should we do?
A little restaurant, a bar?
Have you tried sushi?
I can't go out today. Not today.
I came to thank you for those lovely words
you wrote to me
and to ask for a favor.
I want you to help me dedicate a song
to a friend.
Ah?
He's very depressed because his girlfriend
married someone else.
Ah, you're here because of your friend?
Yes, he seems really down
and I don't like seeing him like that,
and this song will help him.
Is there any way
you could play it at 9:00 p.m.?
I'll make sure he's listening
and that he hears
-this message that's written here.
-Let's see.
So, let's say that I do
this favor for you.
We do this for your friend,
he stops being depressed.
How do I escape the depression
of not going out with you?
No, I'll see you one of these days.
-Sure, of course.
-Okay.
-Is it possible?
-The two of us going out?
As many times as you want.
Let's go now, get it out of the way.
-No, the song thing.
-Yes.
Let's do this.
I'll tell my engineer
See him there? Say hi.
I'll tell him to play this song
and read this message at 9:00 p.m.
And you tell your friend to be there
beside the radio.
I'll be waiting for you to let me know
when we can go out.
Wow, thank you so much.
Honestly, thank you so much.
-No, no.
-I'll see you around.
[romantic music]
-When?
-One of these days.
You have my beeper, right?
You can send me nine more messages.
Oh, is that how we're playing it?
Okay, I like it, I like a challenge.
So if that's how it is, okay.
Bye, 'til next time. Okay.
-All right.
-Thank you. Excuse me.
[romantic music continues]
[laughs] Yes, at 9:00 p.m.
[sighs]
Afternoon, Doctor. Hi.
Hi. I was afraid. Are you okay?
No, no don't leave anymore, please.
-I'm here, it's okay.
-[doctor] Are we ready?
Yes, Doctor. We're ready.
[whispers] It will be okay.
[comically suspenseful music]
[Shaio] Nicolás?
Nico? Doctor? Nico? What do we do?
Don't worry. It's normal.
Happens a lot. He'll sleep through it.
[gentle instrumental music]
But were they able to get the sample,
yes or no?
Yes, yes.
They came out to let us know it went well.
Good.
I'll wait until he wakes up
and stay with him a while.
What do you mean, "a while?"
Shaio, you have to stay
and take care of Nicolás.
What do you mean?
After everything he's done.
Ask for a cot or stay on the sofa.
Ask for some blankets.
You're staying there with him.
He's your husband.
And he's been nothing but generous
and loving toward us.
Yes, ma'am.
I'll stay.
Okay, bye.
[sighs]
[Elver] Miss Kelly.
Elver, this place is closed.
It's always open for you, Miss Kelly.
Follow me.
[suspenseful music]
Hello.
What's all this?
-Hi.
-What's up?
You deserve these, Kelly.
Sit down.
What's with the special treatment?
What is it that you want?
I want this.
[intriguing music]
What is this?
You want a pretty woman?
A blonde, sophisticated woman,
who speaks perfect English,
knows how to manage a home,
how to behave in a club,
on a yacht, on a trip.
A woman worthy of the life
I will offer her.
I'm willing to share everything.
All this my house, my businesses.
But in exchange, I want this.
I know you can do it,
but you have to earn it, work for it.
I thought this was a romantic invitation.
It is.
If you achieve this, Kelly,
I'll be head over heels for that woman.
Or, you could say no,
and we can still be friends.
But if Laura is all of this,
why not go and pursue her?
Ah, no. I'll try to get her,
but another way.
I'm very clear about all this, Kelly.
That's why I'm making this offer to you.
[romantic music]
And could I keep working?
Of course you can.
Yes, I want you to be famous,
for everyone to see you
and admire you,
take your pictures for magazines.
I want everyone to desire you,
but you'll only be with me.
Well, let's celebrate.
[Kelly laughs]
[romantic music continues]
-Shall I help you?
-No, I can do it. I've got it.
-[in English] I'm ready.
-Okay.
Okay.
Tomorrow morning
start looking for English classes, eh?
Look, look.
-[laughing]
-Hooray!
Now it's time to celebrate.
To us.
[romantic music continues]
-Hi.
-Hi.
-How are you? How did it go?
-Oh, I'm alive.
Lots of questions, huh?
Everything went very well.
He just needs a little rest.
Oh, that's good. What about the results?
They'll come in early tomorrow.
That's the only thing left.
The other tests came out fine.
-Oh, Doctor, thanks.
-Okay.
Thanks.
-My darling, my love?
-I'm here.
Can you cuddle with me a little?
I'm very cold.
Nico, I'm afraid I'll hurt you.
Come huddle up.
[instrumental music]
Okay, but carefully.
Yeah, carefully.
-My love?
-Mmm?
Whatever happens,
can you tell your dad
that I did everything?
I don't know if I'm compatible or not,
but I swear that I did everything I could.
I want him to live.
[instrumental music continues]
I know.
I know.
[horns honking]
[pop music playing on radio]
Psst!
[laughs]
How did you know that this is
exactly what I need right now?
Because I know how you feel.
Yeah?
And how do I feel?
Wait.
[muffled radio sounds]
-[radio jingle] M Radio ♪
-Listen.
[Carlos] And when the clock
strikes 9:00 p.m.,
we have a very special musical treat.
A gift from Andrea Vanessa
for someone whose heart is broken,
who's suffering from a love
that wasn't meant to be.
["Aquí Me Tienes" by Adriana Ferrer plays]
Life tests us
Without asking for permission ♪
Listen, listen, listen.
And it's so cruel
That it sticks a thorn in our side ♪
[tempo slows, then increases]
But fear not
You'll see it will all be over ♪
That wound will heal ♪
It's about starting over ♪
[sighs]
I wish it were that easy
or there were a way
to be able to start over,
like the song says, right?
Well, I have a way,
but I don't know if it'll work on you.
Yeah?
[song continues in background]
What is the way?
Is your mom home?
We are lovers without playing at love ♪
Here I am, I give you my life
Take my body and my passion ♪
Hey, promise me
that you won't fall in love.
I swear.
We are lovers without playing at love ♪
I know you want to know what happened
after the big fuss Nico made.
So I'll tell you, because I went
to pick up Shaio and Nico myself
at the clinic that day,
and it was a feast for the eyes.
But first, I'll finish telling you
what happened.
[instrumental music]
In the hospital,
Shaio and Nico were spooning.
But a very concave spoon,
to avoid touching Nico's wound.
Like drunken spoons.
Far away from his wife,
so she wouldn't kill him.
Berny, for his part, was dead tired,
exhausted,
after so much
How can I avoid mentioning Nico's wound?
Let's just say he was exhausted
after his therapy session.
How could he not be?
He just spent the night
with the sexy bombshell, the It Girl.
The one who everyone wants
and no one can get.
How did he get her?
The delicious fury of revenge sex.
And, of course, with lying promises.
Here I am, I give you my life
Take my body and my passion ♪
While you enjoy me,
I beg you to forget that love ♪
[Vanessa] Hey. We're clear, right?
It's a story of passion ♪
Don't think that I'm confused,
that I fell in love with you
We are lovers without playing at love ♪
[Berny] Look, that won't happen. I swear.
I give you my life
Take my body and my passion ♪
While you enjoy me
I beg you to forget that love ♪
It's a story of passion ♪
Poor Berny. Now that I think about it,
it must have been very hard.
Erasing Shaio's memory
by sacrificing himself with Vanessa.
The colonel also had a bad night.
Listen to me, let's go somewhere else,
a place that's cooler than here.
Look, we'll be alone there,
we'll have another drink.
It's a super nice place, good ambience.
They're like little cabins,
but here in the city.
Ah, are you talking about
going to a hotel?
Hey, you're well-informed, eh?
Who would have thought.
No, I pass by those little cabins
every day.
Oh, really?
Well, why don't you slow down a little
and we'll get to know each other better?
Tell me about your life,
about your friends.
By the way, what happened to Hollman?
He's disappeared.
[suspenseful music]
Hollman doesn't
That friendship is over.
I practically had to bury it
because the guy just disappeared.
Mmm, that's what Kelly said.
What about your life?
My life practically started
when I met you.
Before that, nothing important happened.
Oh, don't be humble.
You must have all kinds of stories
from the army.
So, cheers.
Yeah, I guess I have some,
but they're boring.
But you, on the contrary,
with all the work you have,
I bet you have a lot of stories.
Tell me what you do to stay so busy,
tell me.
So, now you know, right?
If the guy asks how much work you do,
make it up, honey.
The photos, the catalog,
the catwalk, whatever you think of
the busier he thinks you are,
the more he'll want to date you, got it?
-I know what I'm talking about.
-What does that get me?
[laughs] What does that get you?
Oh, Jessica, whatever you want, honey.
Whatever you want.
That's the way things work.
You ask, just ask.
Jessica, Jessica?
-What were you thinking?
-[laughs] No, no.
I'm so bored.
Today I checked on the price
of a cell phone, and it's impossible.
Oh, well.
I'll have to wait until they're cheaper.
If I help you get a cell phone,
I can call you? Take you out?
If you get me one, I swear that
you'll win a lot of points with me.
[laughs]
-Mmm.
-What?
-Over there. Is that?
-Where?
There. No, no, it's not.
I thought it was a friend.
What's this?
This is a gift I want to give you
-so that I don't lose you again.
-For me?
Look, here's my name in the first slot,
so you don't forget it.
Jessica had no idea how much power
this would give him.
Hey, and that thing with Nicolás
and Joaquín, what happened?
The next day, I had a phone call,
bright and early.
Guess who was calling?
A desperate voice.
[instrumental music]
[Shaio] I need you to come help me
take him home. I can't do it alone.
I didn't sleep a wink all night.
Did you get the results?
They'll be ready by the time you arrive.
We're in the ward. Hurry.
Hi.
Is my boyfriend? Husband.
Is he ready for discharge?
Can you help me with the paperwork
or whatever I have to pay, please?
Thanks.
[instrumental music]
I swear, last night you should have
dressed up like a nurse
and I would have loved it.
Don't be silly. You were in too much pain.
Fine.
It didn't happen last night,
but it'll happen tonight.
[Nico chuckles]
With our situation,
today will be complicated too.
Why?
We'll have to sleep at my parents' place.
No
That's delicious. Of course, love.
Sex in your single-girl room.
I've always dreamed of that.
Can you imagine? Pure porn, so erotic.
It'll be crazy.
Bed, chair, bathroom.
[romantic music]
[Nico] Shower shower sex, oh, yeah.
Weak in the knees, huh?
[romantic music continues]
Uh, can you put on your socks
or do you need my help?
No, love. I can do it.
But help me out by closing the door.
Okay? Please.
[zipper unzips]
[intriguing music]
-Oh, Nicolás.
-We're ready.
-Are you serious?
-Yes.
-Please get dressed, because
-Oh, what is this?
-What's wrong? What do I do?
-What's this pain?
-Should I call the nurse?
-No, come here.
-Straighten my foot, it's cramped up.
-How?
-Oh!
-Oh, Nicolás!
[laughs]
Love, what would happen if I go lame?
-Would you still love me?
-What are you talking about?
Love, this is one of those issues
that all couples need to discuss.
Hey, enough. Get up, get dressed,
and let's go.
Of course. Whatever you say.
I have the donor results.
Are we talking about
"Mr. Don't You Know Who I Am?"
How sad that someone's life
depends on an idiot like him.
So, did it work, or didn't it?
Are you sure that what they gave you
will make you feel better?
It hurts so much. I can't even move.
It's completely frozen.
-What should we do?
-Go find the doctor.
My love, I can do it alone. Don't worry.
-Are you sure?
-Yes, I can do it alone.
The thing is, it's asleep.
Not in a funny way. From pain.
[sighs]
-Are those the test results?
-Yes, here they are.
I spoke to the medical team,
and it's complicated.
[suspenseful music]
Complicated how?
The lab said
they'd never seen something like this.
What's wrong?
After taking the sample from the femur
and letting him walk like a frog,
-they studied the cells and
-What did the doctor say?
He said he'd never seen
lazier cells in his life.
Yeah, such slackers,
like they've never worked before.
Only you, eh, Nico?
[reads under her breath]
-My love?
-Oh, my God.
My God, what? Don't tell me he's right
and they're lazy cells.
-Really? Love?
-No.
[laughs]
-[laughs]
-What?
They're compatible!
[emotional music]
-My love!
-I knew it.
I knew it. Warrior cells, my love.
-You'll be able to save my dad.
-Surprise.
[emotional music continues]
Óscar, how could you do that?
-What?
-Don't joke about that.
-Where's your sense of humor?
-Grow up.
That's awful.
You can't even take a tiny joke.
We need to celebrate.
[all laugh]
I'll set this here to finish cooling
and I'll get the glasses.
-Where's Dad?
-In the study with Nico, thanking him.
We've been so blessed, Shaio.
Your husband, my love.
-I know.
-It's wonderful, my dear.
[laughs]
We'll see.
Well, at least this situation
saved your marriage, right?
And don't worry.
You'll forget all about Mr. Sweater.
[instrumental music]
That won't happen.
Nicolás just saved Dad's life,
and you say you'll leave him?
No, I didn't say that.
I said that
I wouldn't forget about him, about Berny.
Oh, Lau,
you can't imagine the night I had.
Nico kept saying he wanted
to start our honeymoon and
and I know that I should feel
something more for him.
I'm thankful for what he's doing for us
and for Dad, but
I don't feel like doing anything with him.
Nothing. Nothing at all.
You may be able to delay it a little,
but it has to happen sometime.
Look. Nobody gets married
to be best buddies.
What you're doing is heroic.
Giving me time with my family
letting me see my grandkids grow.
Honestly, it's priceless.
I'm doing it for my own dad, practically.
This is very important to me
and I want to apologize to you
for the argument we had with Edgar
at the wedding.
I'm sorry. It won't happen again.
I didn't think it was that serious.
-Let's leave that behind us.
-Yes.
But I want to ask you a favor.
The next time you need something,
whatever it is, just ask me.
Since you mentioned it,
there is something I want to ask.
Our television sales business
is going well.
We need to get the ball rolling.
All we need is for you to contribute
your part, and that's it.
You've seen the business plan,
marketing, it's all good.
Yes, that all looks very good
and we're going to do it.
-We'll get it going.
-Yes, very good, yes.
But all in due time.
Priorities.
Nico, go on your honeymoon, enjoy it.
And when you get back,
I'll back you, okay?
Yes, that's good, the honeymoon.
I want to give my Shaíto
the honeymoon that she deserves.
One that's memorable, beautiful.
The thing is,
I've been investing in the business
and I'm a little
Guys, let's stop the chitchat.
We have a lot to celebrate.
-Come on.
-Yes, let's celebrate. Come on.
Uh, yeah.
-I pulled a muscle.
-[laughs]
Oh, I'm sorry.
-A nerve.
-[Joaquín] My God.
Are you sitting here?
-Oh, Nicolás.
-Be careful.
Okay.
Well, let's open this.
Mrs. Shaio, there's a call for you.
-Dr. Gálvez.
-Why?
I don't know.
Excuse me a moment. Thanks, Tuli.
[suspenseful music]
-That's strange.
-Could it be possible?
Hello?
Is there any way
we could do the surgery tomorrow?
Tomorrow? So soon?
Since your dad's condition is so delicate,
I don't want to wait any longer.
Okay, okay, perfect. Thank you very much.
Uh, do you think there's anything
I can give to Nicolás
to take before the surgery?
What do you mean?
I mean that lately,
he's been acting hyperactive,
he's really restless, and wants to
move a lot.
And I know it's because of nerves
and anxiety,
but if I tell him the surgery's tomorrow,
he won't sleep a wink.
Write this down, please.
I need him strong and rested tomorrow.
Wait, wait, stop.
You haven't given a toast yet, right?
-No.
-No.
Neither of you can take a sip.
-Why not?
-What?
Dr. Gálvez just told me
that he can do the surgery tomorrow.
[cheering]
That's great news!
What do you mean, tomorrow?
And why did he call you,
if I'm the patient?
Dad, I know.
Look, he'll call you to explain
absolutely everything.
He'll call to tell all of you everything.
I just spoke to him
and I'm giving you the news. Not one sip.
I think it's a little premature,
don't you think?
At least a month.
Enough time to properly organize it.
Look, I know it's soon,
but it's what we all wanted, right?
Besides, he's going away
and wants this done first.
I guess that's it then.
-But us ladies can still toast.
-Of course we can!
-How exciting!
-This is great.
[all] Cheers.
[emotional music]
-Hi.
-My love, I thought you weren't coming.
Come and cuddle with me, okay?
Yes, uh
-What?
-Nico
-What's wrong?
-First I wanted
-Careful.
-Tell me.
Thank you for everything
you're doing for my dad.
I'm doing it from my heart,
with all my love.
But you should touch me. Touch me here.
Oh, I can't deny that
I'm about to climb the walls, seriously.
-But
-I'm going crazy. Crazy.
-I don't know what to do.
-I didn't want
Wait, wait.
Wait, wait,
I've been running around all day.
I want to shower, okay? I won't take long.
-Oh, love.
-Look. Look what I brought you.
And it's delicious.
Drink it and I'll come
and cuddle with you, okay?
What's in this juice?
What?
Oh, is it spiked?
Love, what is this?
Fruit, like passionfruit.
Smells like peach palm. Oh, love.
I'm a little afraid,
because what happens next?
-No.
-I'm ready, I'm ready.
Yes, drink it. I already drank a full one.
A full one, and it was delicious.
-I won't be long. Drink all of it.
-But don't be long.
-Don't be long, please.
-I won't be long.
We're finally going to christen this room.
[children cheer]
[traffic noise]
Everything's gonna be alright, honey.
If anything happens,
take care of them, okay?
They think they're old enough,
but they still need guidance.
That's not necessary,
because you'll be there.
[emotional music]
[whispers] Everything will be fine.
Excuse me.
[emotional music continues]
-My Laura
-Excuse me.
My darling Wait a minute, please.
Come here.
Hey, if anything happens
in the operating room,
I want you to promise
you won't get back with that guy.
Nothing will happen.
They've already run all the tests.
But you know what?
Anything could happen. Promise me.
Nico, you go in there,
save my dad's life
and I will be grateful my entire life.
There's something I haven't told you.
What did you do?
-Well, uh Just a minute.
-Darling, are you ready?
When you took so long in the bathroom,
I had to handle myself.
-What?
-Three times.
Then I drank that juice you left me
and it was delicious.
-Nicolás?
-I feel weak.
Sorry to interrupt. May I take him now?
Oh, yes, please.
My love, remember
what you just promised me, please.
Goodbye, Nico!
-[Nico] Bye, dear Pauli, bye.
-Good luck!
I'm doing this with all my love.
[exhales] Joaquín?
If anything happens to me
and I don't make it,
I want you to know
that I'm doing this with lots of love,
Dad.
[doctor] Are we ready, gentlemen?
[sentimental music]
Edgar?
What's all this? Who are we praying for?
This light is for my neighbor, Joaquín.
He's having a bone marrow transplant
and I want it to go well.
What do you mean?
Don't we hate that pompous old man
because of the photos and the magazine?
Yes, of course we hate him, dummy.
But I want him to be well.
A dead enemy is no fun, Elver.
I need him alive so he can suffer.
[suspenseful music]
So, tell me how you're
going to get your revenge,
so I can see how I can help.
I'll hit him where it hurts the most.
Ugh, no, Edgar, don't be so base.
Don't go and off Miss Laura.
That kid isn't bad.
Why would you think I'd hurt Laurita?
I'm not a killer.
Aren't you?
What about the Caletas, Tanga, Maniquí?
Hollman.
I'm not a killer.
Get that picture out of your head.
-Okay?
-Sure.
I forgot it already.
But explain, because I still don't get it.
We're betting that the Domínguez girls
will fail at their agency, right?
But we're screwed,
because the agency is taking off.
No, no, no, Elver.
To the contrary. I hope they do well,
I hope they rise to the top,
so they're famous here and abroad.
If they do well, I'll do well.
But you aren't a partner.
When they least expect it,
they'll be implicated
by everything they hate
and reject so much,
and Edguitar will be clean as a whistle.
Then I'll be the one spurning them.
I'll refuse to acknowledge them.
And in that moment, Elver,
I'll erase them from my life.
[Edgar] Well, well.
So the gentlemen deign
to show themselves in my club.
Joaquín thought that erasing Edgar
from the wedding photos
had erased that guy's presence
from the wedding.
Edgar Trejo, interior designer.
Here, take my card.
Anything you need.
Can we take a quick pic?
[Óscar] The journalist Pedro Suárez,
who had never even bothered
to greet Edgar, understood that night
that it might be good to be friends.
-Evening, gentlemen.
-Edgar.
I'm glad to see you around here.
With everyone talking about this place,
we had to stop by and see for ourselves.
I love that you love it.
-What do you want to drink? Whisky?
-Great, thanks.
Lucí, whisky.
So, Edgar, I won't waste your time.
Let's get to the point.
I need you to tell me things.
Do you know her?
-Andrea Vanessa?
-Yes.
Basically, I want you to tell me
everything you can.
I want to know everything: if she studies,
what she studies, if she has a boyfriend,
if she works,
and when her next jobs will be.
He wants to know when
they can get married.
Exactly. Yes.
You're moving quickly, Pedrito.
I'll tell you. Look.
-Giselita and I are close.
-Giselita?
Andrea Vanessa's mom.
I got Andrea Vanessa started in modeling
with my ties to the Domínguez girls
and contacts with foreign agencies.
But does that mean she already
works with foreign agencies?
I love it when she swings her hips ♪
[Edgar] We've almost made it.
I've had very serious conversations
with my friend.
That kid is very classy,
and she's gorgeous.
Come here.
[Pedro] I want to keep her close
because we're already friends.
But sometimes she seems
very strong-willed.
Which I love, don't get me wrong,
but she seems a little slippery.
Why don't we do this. I'll talk to her,
see if she's interested, how interested,
and how she sees things.
I'll wait. Whatever's necessary,
because my intentions toward the kid
are the best.
If she wants me to leave my wife, I will,
if she wants me to marry her, I'll do it.
Another thing:
What kind of ring does she like?
[Carlos] You just won't learn, eh?
So, to sum it up,
what you miss is swimming in the river?
-Going just to splash around.
-Yes, I loved going to the river.
There's one there in Barranca
that's ice-cold when it's hot outside.
-Yeah, it's great.
-There's nothing better.
Hey, why don't we go?
Yeah, we could go somewhere,
maybe with a pool.
You can even the score a little.
Now that you mention it,
my mom's part of a social
compensation fund,
and through it she can
schedule a trip to Melgar.
I've never been there.
They say it's great because it has a pool.
Those things that look like lakes,
but they're actually pools,
-and they're awesome.
-Yeah, yeah.
Wherever, as long as we leave the city.
It's very big and all that, but boring.
Well, I'm sorry I'm so boring that
I can't compete with Barrancabermeja.
I didn't say that. But why not go?
And we'll see if you lose that sad face
that makes you look like
a soap opera star.
-Is it that obvious?
-It's pretty obvious.
I thought I had the cure,
but I'll have to try harder.
Just don't fall in love, okay?
Oh, you're convinced, aren't you?
Now he's confident.
There isn't a man alive
who makes me lose sleep.
[romantic music]
Hey, why are you staring at your phone?
As if Mr. Muscles is going to call.
Look, Laura, Dad is in there with Nicolás.
-I can't think about anything else.
-I wonder.
Why are you squabbling?
Hi, are you finished?
Yes, the procedure is over,
but we had an unfortunate problem
with a heart attack.
[suspenseful music]
My God, my dad can't die!
Your dad is fine. It's your husband.
-Hey! Nico is
-I'll keep you updated.
Well, excuse me.
[whispers] Oh, dear God.
-Nico is dying.
-He won't die.
Oh, my nerves can't handle this.
I'm going to get a drink.
[announcer over P.A.]
Dr. García, please come
Damn it, this is my fault.
How? Why?
Because yesterday,
I gave Nicolás a sedative.
I'm sure that's what brought him so low.
-No, Shaio.
-This is all my fault!
That doesn't cause a heart attack.
Don't be so hard on yourself.
-Nobody dies from a sedative.
-It wasn't only that, Laura.
[whispers] Last night Nicolás
came about three times.
You Shaio, what did you do?
It wasn't me, it wasn't me.
He was so desperate to have the honeymoon
and I didn't want to.
My God, if anything happens to Nicolás
I can't live with the guilt.
Nothing will happen to him. Nothing.
Calm down, okay?
[sighs]
My God, I swear,
I swear that if you save his life, I'll
I'll take this marriage seriously
and I won't say no to anything again.
Doctor, what happened?
Your husband is very generous and noble,
-but his heart is very weak.
-But
It's a miracle he's alive.
-Oh, thank God!
-See?
-Mom, he's okay.
-What?
-Yes?
-Yes.
Did you give Nicolás anything
other than the sedative?
I don't know it's as if
it's very strange.
How strange, because I just gave him
the sedative. I don't understand.
Okay. Thank you.
Thanks.
I need to say something.
We owe Nico everything, Shaio.
No only did he save Dad's life,
but he risked his own,
so I hope you're aware of that.

-Someone who's a fan.
[radio jingle] M Radio ♪
Did you send the message, Jessica?
I've sent seven messages with no answer.
Seven messages! [laughs]
Pedro, do you think your strategy
is working?
Why would some girl who's 17,
18 years old,
be dying to go out with an old man
who colors his roots?
[laughs]
But who's successful.
-Ah.
-Well, then.
And who can also place a bet if he has to.
-But I understand if you're scared.
-How about a bottle of gin
says that she won't answer?
-Let's make a bet.
-Perfect, we'll bet, then.
Fine, but it has to be today.
She shows up or she sends a message.
Today, not tomorrow
or the day after tomorrow.
Gentlemen, you're on air.
-Today.
-Today.
Today.
Today we're going to choose songs
for lovely ladies.
You tell me: What song would you dedicate
to the woman you consider
out of your league?
[Carlos] For that woman who should answer,
let's say,
-seven or eight messages from her friend.
-[Pedro] By the way, Carlos,
you shouldn't make fun of love.
You sound like me.
I'm not making fun.
I'm bringing a little sense of reality
into the mix.
Honestly, Carlitos, we've all experienced
this at some point.
We've all fallen under the spell
of sensuality, of beauty.
I've found there's a name for it
Stendhal Syndrome.
It's an intense emotional reaction
to contemplating beauty.
I think that happened to your friend.
Who knows?
Maybe that woman is interested in him.
I believe so, but let's hear
what our audience thinks.
[Carlos] The phone lines are open.
And don't forget,
this is "Cayendo la Tarde."

Don't be long.
I was going to tell you
to make yourself at home.
Well, I'm happy to see you here. Welcome.
You made me send you nine messages.
I don't think I've ever been
so humiliated.
No, I just don't have a cell phone.
So I had no way to call.
Rather, I preferred to come.
And now what should we do?
A little restaurant, a bar?
Have you tried sushi?
I can't go out today. Not today.
I came to thank you for those lovely words
you wrote to me
and to ask for a favor.
I want you to help me dedicate a song
to a friend.
Ah?
He's very depressed because his girlfriend
married someone else.
Ah, you're here because of your friend?
Yes, he seems really down
and I don't like seeing him like that,
and this song will help him.
Is there any way
you could play it at 9:00 p.m.?
I'll make sure he's listening
and that he hears
-this message that's written here.
-Let's see.
So, let's say that I do
this favor for you.
We do this for your friend,
he stops being depressed.
How do I escape the depression
of not going out with you?
No, I'll see you one of these days.
-Sure, of course.
-Okay.
-Is it possible?
-The two of us going out?
As many times as you want.
Let's go now, get it out of the way.
-No, the song thing.
-Yes.
Let's do this.
I'll tell my engineer
See him there? Say hi.
I'll tell him to play this song
and read this message at 9:00 p.m.
And you tell your friend to be there
beside the radio.
I'll be waiting for you to let me know
when we can go out.
Wow, thank you so much.
Honestly, thank you so much.
-No, no.
-I'll see you around.

-When?
-One of these days.
You have my beeper, right?

yes or no?
Yes, yes.
They came out to let us know it went well.
Good.
I'll wait until he wakes up
and stay with him a while.
What do you mean, "a while?"
Shaio, you have to stay
and take care of Nicolás.
What do you mean?
After everything he's done.
Ask for a cot or stay on the sofa.
Ask for some blankets.
You're staying there with him.
He's your husband.
And he's been nothing but generous
and loving toward us.
Yes, ma'am.
I'll stay.
Okay, bye.

You deserve these, Kelly.
Sit down.

What is it that you want?
I want this.

What is this?
You want a pretty woman?
A blonde, sophisticated woman,
who speaks perfect English,
knows how to manage a home,
how to behave in a club,
on a yacht, on a trip.
A woman worthy of the life
I will offer her.
I'm willing to share everything.
All this my house, my businesses.
But in exchange, I want this.
I know you can do it,
but you have to earn it, work for it.
I thought this was a romantic invitation.
It is.
If you achieve this, Kelly,
I'll be head over heels for that woman.
Or, you could say no,
and we can still be friends.
But if Laura is all of this,
why not go and pursue her?
Ah, no. I'll try to get her,
but another way.
I'm very clear about all this, Kelly.
That's why I'm making this offer to you.

And could I keep working?
Of course you can.
Yes, I want you to be famous,
for everyone to see you

take your pictures for magazines.
I want everyone to desire you,

Well, let's celebrate.

That's the only thing left.
The other tests came out fine.

Yeah, carefully.

what happened.

In the hospital,
Shaio and Nico were spooning.
But a very concave spoon,
to avoid touching Nico's wound.
Like drunken spoons.
Far away from his wife,
so she wouldn't kill him.
Berny, for his part, was dead tired,
exhausted,
after so much
How can I avoid mentioning Nico's wound?
Let's just say he was exhausted
after his therapy session.
How could he not be?

It's a super nice place, good ambience.
They're like little cabins,
but here in the city.
Ah, are you talking about

No, I pass by those little cabins
every day.
Oh, really?
Well, why don't you slow down a little

By the way, what happened to Hollman?
He's disappeared.

What about your life?

when I met you.
Before that, nothing important happened.
Oh, don't be humble.

but they're boring.
But you, on the contrary,

make it up, honey.

Of course. Whatever you say.

Are we talking about
"Mr. Don't You Know Who I Am?"
How sad that someone's life
depends on an idiot like him.
So, did it work, or didn't it?
Are you sure that what they gave you
will make you feel better?
It hurts so much. I can't even move.
It's completely frozen.
-What should we do?
-Go find the doctor.
My love, I can do it alone. Don't worry.
-Are you sure?
-Yes, I can do it alone.
The thing is, it's asleep.
Not in a funny way. From pain.
[sighs]
-Are those the test results?
-Yes, here they are.
I spoke to the medical team,
and it's complicated.
[suspenseful music]
Complicated how?
The lab said
they'd never seen something like this.
What's wrong?
After taking the sample from the femur
and letting him walk like a frog,
-they studied the cells and
-What did the doctor say?
He said he'd never seen
lazier cells in his life.
Yeah, such slackers,
like they've never worked before.
Only you, eh, Nico?
[reads under her breath]
-My love?
-Oh, my God.
My God, what? Don't tell me he's right
and they're lazy cells.
-Really? Love?
-No.

-What?
They're compatible!

-Surprise.

Óscar, how could you do that?
-What?
-Don't joke about that.
-Where's your sense of humor?
-Grow up.
That's awful.
You can't even take a tiny joke.
We need to celebrate.

I'll set this here to finish cooling
and I'll get the glasses.
-Where's Dad?
-In the study with Nico, thanking him.
We've been so blessed, Shaio.
Your husband, my love.
-I know.
-It's wonderful, my dear.
[laughs]
We'll see.
Well, at least this situation
saved your marriage, right?
And don't worry.
You'll forget all about Mr. Sweater.

That won't happen.
Nicolás just saved Dad's life,
and you say you'll leave him?
No, I didn't say that.
I said that
I wouldn't forget about him, about Berny.
Oh, Lau,
you can't imagine the night I had.
Nico kept saying he wanted
to start our honeymoon and
and I know that I should feel
something more for him.
I'm thankful for what he's doing for us
and for Dad, but
I don't feel like doing anything with him.
Nothing. Nothing at all.
You may be able to delay it a little,
but it has to happen sometime.
Look. Nobody gets married
to be best buddies.
What you're doing is heroic.
Giving me time with my family
letting me see my grandkids grow.
Honestly, it's priceless.
I'm doing it for my own dad, practically.
This is very important to me
and I want to apologize to you
for the argument we had with Edgar
at the wedding.
I'm sorry. It won't happen again.
I didn't think it was that serious.
-Let's leave that behind us.
-Yes.
But I want to ask you a favor.
The next time you need something,
whatever it is, just ask me.
Since you mentioned it,
there is something I want to ask.
Our television sales business
is going well.
We need to get the ball rolling.
All we need is for you to contribute
your part, and that's it.
You've seen the business plan,
marketing, it's all good.
Yes, that all looks very good
and we're going to do it.
-We'll get it going.
-Yes, very good, yes.
But all in due time.
Priorities.
Nico, go on your honeymoon, enjoy it.
And when you get back,
I'll back you, okay?
Yes, that's good, the honeymoon.
I want to give my Shaíto
the honeymoon that she deserves.
One that's memorable, beautiful.
The thing is,
I've been investing in the business
and I'm a little
Guys, let's stop the chitchat.
We have a lot to celebrate.
-Come on.
-Yes, let's celebrate. Come on.
Uh, yeah.
-I pulled a muscle.
-[laughs]
Oh, I'm sorry.
-A nerve.
-[Joaquín] My God.
Are you sitting here?
-Oh, Nicolás.
-Be careful.
Okay.
Well, let's open this.
Mrs. Shaio, there's a call for you.
-Dr. Gálvez.
-Why?
I don't know.
Excuse me a moment. Thanks, Tuli.
[suspenseful music]
-That's strange.
-Could it be possible?
Hello?
Is there any way
we could do the surgery tomorrow?
Tomorrow? So soon?
Since your dad's condition is so delicate,
I don't want to wait any longer.
Okay, okay, perfect. Thank you very much.
Uh, do you think there's anything
I can give to Nicolás
to take before the surgery?
What do you mean?
I mean that lately,
he's been acting hyperactive,
he's really restless, and wants to
move a lot.
And I know it's because of nerves
and anxiety,
but if I tell him the surgery's tomorrow,
he won't sleep a wink.
Write this down, please.
I need him strong and rested tomorrow.
Wait, wait, stop.
You haven't given a toast yet, right?
-No.
-No.
Neither of you can take a sip.
-Why not?
-What?
Dr. Gálvez just told me
that he can do the surgery tomorrow.
[cheering]
That's great news!
What do you mean, tomorrow?
And why did he call you,
if I'm the patient?
Dad, I know.
Look, he'll call you to explain
absolutely everything.
He'll call to tell all of you everything.
I just spoke to him
and I'm giving you the news. Not one sip.
I think it's a little premature,
don't you think?
At least a month.
Enough time to properly organize it.
Look, I know it's soon,
but it's what we all wanted, right?
Besides, he's going away
and wants this done first.
I guess that's it then.
-But us ladies can still toast.
-Of course we can!
-How exciting!
-This is great.
[all] Cheers.
[emotional music]
-Hi.
-My love, I thought you weren't coming.
Come and cuddle with me, okay?
Yes, uh
-What?
-Nico
-What's wrong?
-First I wanted
-Careful.
-Tell me.
Thank you for everything
you're doing for my dad.
I'm doing it from my heart,
with all my love.
But you should touch me. Touch me here.
Oh, I can't deny that
I'm about to climb the walls, seriously.
-But
-I'm going crazy. Crazy.
-I don't know what to do.
-I didn't want
Wait, wait.
Wait, wait,
I've been running around all day.
I want to shower, okay? I won't take long.
-Oh, love.
-Look. Look what I brought you.
And it's delicious.
Drink it and I'll come
and cuddle with you, okay?
What's in this juice?
What?
Oh, is it spiked?
Love, what is this?
Fruit, like passionfruit.
Smells like peach palm. Oh, love.
I'm a little afraid,
because what happens next?
-No.
-I'm ready, I'm ready.
Yes, drink it. I already drank a full one.
A full one, and it was delicious.
-I won't be long. Drink all of it.
-But don't be long.
-Don't be long, please.
-I won't be long.
We're finally going to christen this room.
[children cheer]
[traffic noise]
Everything's gonna be alright, honey.
If anything happens,
take care of them, okay?
They think they're old enough,
but they still need guidance.
That's not necessary,
because you'll be there.
[emotional music]
[whispers] Everything will be fine.
Excuse me.
[emotional music continues]
-My Laura
-Excuse me.
My darling Wait a minute, please.
Come here.
Hey, if anything happens
in the operating room,
I want you to promise
you won't get back with that guy.
Nothing will happen.
They've already run all the tests.
But you know what?
Anything could happen. Promise me.
Nico, you go in there,
save my dad's life
and I will be grateful my entire life.
There's something I haven't told you.
What did you do?
-Well, uh Just a minute.
-Darling, are you ready?
When you took so long in the bathroom,
I had to handle myself.
-What?
-Three times.
Then I drank that juice you left me
and it was delicious.
-Nicolás?
-I feel weak.
Sorry to interrupt. May I take him now?
Oh, yes, please.
My love, remember
what you just promised me, please.
Goodbye, Nico!
-[Nico] Bye, dear Pauli, bye.
-Good luck!
I'm doing this with all my love.
[exhales] Joaquín?
If anything happens to me
and I don't make it,
I want you to know
that I'm doing this with lots of love,
Dad.
[doctor] Are we ready, gentlemen?
[sentimental music]
Edgar?
What's all this? Who are we praying for?
This light is for my neighbor, Joaquín.
He's having a bone marrow transplant
and I want it to go well.
What do you mean?
Don't we hate that pompous old man
because of the photos and the magazine?
Yes, of course we hate him, dummy.
But I want him to be well.
A dead enemy is no fun, Elver.
I need him alive so he can suffer.
[suspenseful music]
So, tell me how you're
going to get your revenge,
so I can see how I can help.
I'll hit him where it hurts the most.
Ugh, no, Edgar, don't be so base.
Don't go and off Miss Laura.
That kid isn't bad.
Why would you think I'd hurt Laurita?
I'm not a killer.
Aren't you?
What about the Caletas, Tanga, Maniquí?
Hollman.
I'm not a killer.
Get that picture out of your head.
-Okay?
-Sure.
I forgot it already.
But explain, because I still don't get it.
We're betting that the Domínguez girls
will fail at their agency, right?
But we're screwed,
because the agency is taking off.
No, no, no, Elver.
To the contrary. I hope they do well,
I hope they rise to the top,
so they're famous here and abroad.
If they do well, I'll do well.
But you aren't a partner.
When they least expect it,
they'll be implicated
by everything they hate
and reject so much,
and Edguitar will be clean as a whistle.
Then I'll be the one spurning them.
I'll refuse to acknowledge them.
And in that moment, Elver,
I'll erase them from my life.
[Edgar] Well, well.
So the gentlemen deign
to show themselves in my club.
Joaquín thought that erasing Edgar
from the wedding photos
had erased that guy's presence
from the wedding.
Edgar Trejo, interior designer.
Here, take my card.
Anything you need.
Can we take a quick pic?
[Óscar] The journalist Pedro Suárez,
who had never even bothered
to greet Edgar, understood that night
that it might be good to be friends.
-Evening, gentlemen.
-Edgar.
I'm glad to see you around here.
With everyone talking about this place,
we had to stop by and see for ourselves.
I love that you love it.
-What do you want to drink? Whisky?
-Great, thanks.
Lucí, whisky.
So, Edgar, I won't waste your time.
Let's get to the point.
I need you to tell me things.
Do you know her?
-Andrea Vanessa?
-Yes.
Basically, I want you to tell me
everything you can.
I want to know everything: if she studies,
what she studies, if she has a boyfriend,
if she works,
and when her next jobs will be.
He wants to know when
they can get married.
Exactly. Yes.
You're moving quickly, Pedrito.
I'll tell you. Look.
-Giselita and I are close.
-Giselita?
Andrea Vanessa's mom.
I got Andrea Vanessa started in modeling
with my ties to the Domínguez girls
and contacts with foreign agencies.
But does that mean she already
works with foreign agencies?
I love it when she swings her hips ♪
[Edgar] We've almost made it.
I've had very serious conversations
with my friend.
That kid is very classy,
and she's gorgeous.
Come here.
[Pedro] I want to keep her close
because we're already friends.
But sometimes she seems
very strong-willed.
Which I love, don't get me wrong,
but she seems a little slippery.
Why don't we do this. I'll talk to her,
see if she's interested, how interested,
and how she sees things.
I'll wait. Whatever's necessary,
because my intentions toward the kid
are the best.
If she wants me to leave my wife, I will,
if she wants me to marry her, I'll do it.
Another thing:
What kind of ring does she like?
[Carlos] You just won't learn, eh?
So, to sum it up,
what you miss is swimming in the river?
-Going just to splash around.
-Yes, I loved going to the river.
There's one there in Barranca
that's ice-cold when it's hot outside.
-Yeah, it's great.
-There's nothing better.
Hey, why don't we go?
Yeah, we could go somewhere,
maybe with a pool.
You can even the score a little.
Now that you mention it,
my mom's part of a social
compensation fund,
and through it she can
schedule a trip to Melgar.
I've never been there.
They say it's great because it has a pool.
Those things that look like lakes,
but they're actually pools,
-and they're awesome.
-Yeah, yeah.
Wherever, as long as we leave the city.
It's very big and all that, but boring.
Well, I'm sorry I'm so boring that
I can't compete with Barrancabermeja.
I didn't say that. But why not go?
And we'll see if you lose that sad face
that makes you look like
a soap opera star.
-Is it that obvious?
-It's pretty obvious.
I thought I had the cure,
but I'll have to try harder.
Just don't fall in love, okay?
Oh, you're convinced, aren't you?
Now he's confident.
There isn't a man alive
who makes me lose sleep.
[romantic music]
Hey, why are you staring at your phone?
As if Mr. Muscles is going to call.
Look, Laura, Dad is in there with Nicolás.
-I can't think about anything else.
-I wonder.
Why are you squabbling?
Hi, are you finished?
Yes, the procedure is over,
but we had an unfortunate problem
with a heart attack.
[suspenseful music]
My God, my dad can't die!
Your dad is fine. It's your husband.
-Hey! Nico is
-I'll keep you updated.
Well, excuse me.
[whispers] Oh, dear God.
-Nico is dying.
-He won't die.
Oh, my nerves can't handle this.
I'm going to get a drink.
[announcer over P.A.]
Dr. García, please come
Damn it, this is my fault.
How? Why?
Because yesterday,
I gave Nicolás a sedative.
I'm sure that's what brought him so low.
-No, Shaio.
-This is all my fault!
That doesn't cause a heart attack.
Don't be so hard on yourself.
-Nobody dies from a sedative.
-It wasn't only that, Laura.
[whispers] Last night Nicolás
came about three times.
You Shaio, what did you do?
It wasn't me, it wasn't me.
He was so desperate to have the honeymoon
and I didn't want to.
My God, if anything happens to Nicolás
I can't live with the guilt.
Nothing will happen to him. Nothing.
Calm down, okay?
[sighs]
My God, I swear,
I swear that if you save his life, I'll
I'll take this marriage seriously
and I won't say no to anything again.
Doctor, what happened?
Your husband is very generous and noble,
-but his heart is very weak.
-But
It's a miracle he's alive.
-Oh, thank God!
-See?
-Mom, he's okay.
-What?
-Yes?
-Yes.
Did you give Nicolás anything
other than the sedative?
I don't know it's as if
it's very strange.
How strange, because I just gave him
the sedative. I don't understand.
Okay. Thank you.
Thanks.
I need to say something.
We owe Nico everything, Shaio.
No only did he save Dad's life,
but he risked his own,
so I hope you're aware of that.
