She hates me. I'm being set up.
Don't you see, Saul? We're both being lied to.
Calm down.
Emiliano and I aren't doing anything.
No one's even noticed.
We don't even hug. Tell him, Emiliano.
Isa, I don't...
I don't care.
Know why?
You and I got together
to get our parents off our backs.
From now on, do whatever the hell you want.
I will do the same.
Would you kill the man who raped you
if he were here now?
What would you do
to the man responsible for your parents' death?
Miguel Preciado disappeared the day after he met with you.
Recently, a colonel named Alejandro Cespedes went missing.
I don't know who that is.
I've been investigating
and it seems they were members
of a gang known as the Monkeys.
Twenty years ago, they were known in Veracruz
for raping and killing young women.
You were one of their victims, weren't you?
What are you talking about? Who are the Monkeys?
I've never even heard about them.
So you're not one of their victims?
Of course not.
I came here looking for answers and all I have are questions.
Trust your instincts like you always have.
Trust me.
I met with Yesenia for personal reasons.
We chose...
If you were trying to make amends,
why is she lying about meeting you?
I don't know.
Why is Felipe saying that you killed the woman
whose death is now used to extort him?
Why did Margarita say you'd threatened her?
Why does Ximena say you blackmailed her
so she'd leave?
As you can see, I have too many questions.
I can only trust someone blindly for so long.
I have one more question.
One that's tearing me up inside.
Why is my father dead?
I don't know.
I don't know what happened to us or why we're through.
But there's something I'm certain of...
We're through.
Call your boss and tell her that it will be worse for her!
It will be nothing compared to what will happen to you.
Out.
You must tell everyone
we were together when Jaime Aguirre died.
You just have to tell the truth.
No, sweetheart. If I did, then I'd have to say
I was there so I could be paid
to keep your marriage to Lazaro a secret.
The man you abandoned along with your daughter.
A daughter who died while you were living it up.
Shut up. Be quiet, you idiot.
I don't care if I'm blamed for your death.
People like me don't go to prison.
Do it.
Make sure your aim is certain.
I'll never help you. Know why?
Because you don't deserve it.
When I lent you a hand, you threw me out of your house.
So go ahead and shoot me.
Show Saul and yourself that you'll never change.
Altagracia!
Ma'am, we found your sister.
Regina, I'm here! I'm being kept here!
Stop it.
Altagracia, what are you doing?
I know what Yesenia is doing is terrible, but...
I'm doing something terrible?
She's the one with the gun!
What?
So you're proud about what you're doing, Yesenia?
You know perfectly well that Altagracia didn't kill Jaime.
She's lost Saul because of you.
He's the man who's made her a better person.
Altagracia, please.
Let her go.
You'll get to leave because I'm letting you
and because Regina came here to save you.
That's all.
You're no good to me dead,
because you wouldn't be able to talk.
But you know what?
I have other ways to make you squeal.
Leave before I change my mind.
Get out!
Don't touch me.
I'm so sorry, Azucena. I'm really sorry.
No, please. I beg you.
-I'll give you a name. -Really?
But please don't do this.
What's the name?
Llamas.
Daniel Llamas was another one of the Monkeys.
Saul...
I'm very sorry.
Thank you for coming, Daniel.
So you are Daniel Llamas.
My father was pushed,
and when I find out who did it,
I'll make them eat the same dirt onto which my father fell.
Are you talking about justice or vengeance?
What's the difference?
All I can see right now is how many hands...
How many people...
Are trying to stop the murderer from paying.
I'm alive today because Daniel pretended to kill me.
He let you live on purpose?
Yes, but he raped me, too.
He didn't stop any of it, so...
I'm getting revenge on him, too.
To be honest,
I came because I never formally told you
I was resigning.
When I went to your office, Mr. Cabral had them fire me.
Which he never should've done.
I want you to continue working for me.
I need someone I can trust.
Everyone's turned on me.
Why would I be that someone?
Because you don't judge people.
You try to see beyond the surface.
That's what you did with me.
When Jaime died, you were the only person
who didn't think I was guilty.
We only saw Mr. Jaime fall.
She was up there,
but we don't know if she pushed him or not.
You were the only person to defend me.
That's why I want you to help me
make Saul understand that I'm innocent.
I need for him to believe me.
Please help me, Monica.
Altagracia is surrounded by very dangerous people.
Perhaps one of these people
had my father killed without her knowledge.
When my dad was attacked the first time,
there were three people who helped her.
-Monica. -Lady Altagracia.
What are you doing here, Altagracia?
We fell asleep.
I didn't realize it was morning already.
-Is this a habit of yours? -No.
I just lost track of time. We were exhausted.
Wait, Monica. Don't.
You don't owe her any explanations.
How's my mother going to react if she realizes you're here?
I made sure I wasn't seen.
Unlike you two. You left the door open.
-That's why I came in. -This makes no sense.
-When I went to your house... -You left without believing me.
That's why I didn't attend the funeral.
Yet I still felt guilty for not supporting you
in your time of need.
I brought you this as an apology.
It's a rose.
I hope it lasts a while.
Certainly longer than your loyalty, Monica.
We can resume this later.
And this?
What is it?
Are you trying to prove my involvement
in your father's death?
All the contrary.
I'm trying to prove it wasn't you
to find who did it.
I'll find a way to prove that I'm being framed.
I must warn you, though.
By the time I prove it, it may be too late.
And I'll be the one
that doesn't want anything with you.
Are you getting away from Lady Altagracia?
More or less.
One of my friends has offered to help me.
He's a client I once helped to win the lottery.
He was guided by my predictions.
Now he wants to help me out, because he has a ton of money.
Anyway, he's going away,
so he's decided to let us stay in his apartment.
All three of us.
Braulio Padilla.
-He's Altagracia's attorney. -Yes, I know who he is.
He took Altagracia before I got to her.
He arrived in an instant.
Did Altagracia call him? At what point?
I don't know.
I detained her when she came downstairs.
She never took out her phone.
Then she must've called him when she was upstairs.
That must have happened
before or right after my father's death.
Right.
That leaves us with two questions.
First, if she called him beforehand,
it's because she knew she was going to need him.
Secondly... Think about it, Saul.
She witnessed your father fall to his death.
You're supposed to be the love of her life,
yet the first thing she does is call her attorney?
It makes no sense.
What's wrong with you?
You got a problem?
You knew Altagracia was in that building!
Or you wouldn't have arrived
at the exact moment of her arrest.
Let go of me!
Altagracia called you right when my father died.
Did she tell you what she did?
I was worried.
I arrived right as she was being arrested.
I don't believe you. It's far too coincidental.
I couldn't care less.
Say, Aguirre. What hurts more?
The death of your father
or the fact that you can't keep doing her because of it?
Say that again. Go on!
What?
Want me to shoot you right here just like Felipe did?
In case you haven't noticed...
I'm serious about seeking justice for my father.
And in case you haven't noticed,
we have the police on our side.
Who's we?
Your mother needs you, Aguirre.
Do you really want to go to prison for this?
Are you going to abandon her?
This doesn't end here.
I want you to investigate Monica.
Remember Monica the girl who used to work for me?
The one who sold sandwiches outside the office?
Do you seriously want to waste time on that?
All I know so far is that she lives in the tenement house.
She's friends with Yesenia, and her father is ill.
Perhaps he's her weak point.
Why do you want to target her?
She always seemed to be mentioning her father.
Find out who he is, and not only that.
I want you to find out every last detail about Monica.
Well?
I can't look at it. I can't!
Valeria...
I'll look at the results.
It's positive, Valeria.
You're pregnant.
No...
What do you know about jealousy, love and passion?
-Don't talk to me like that. -It's the truth.
You don't know what true love feels like,
and that's why you can't understand.
You think my life is so pathetic
that no man has ever truly loved me?
You never leave the house.
Men who are truly worth it are like a needle in a haystack.
-Like Saul. -Yes, like Saul.
I lost him due to lies, because I was set up.
You've never lost anyone though,
so what makes you think you can talk to me about men?
You know what? You're completely right.
I can't talk about men with a woman
who only sleeps with them
out of greed, power or vengeance?
What did she say this time?
She said that no man has ever loved me.
And that I would never experience that...
She's wrong though.
You know what?
Neither Altagracia nor anyone else
deserves me sacrificing my happiness for them.
You are my happiness.
Hi, good afternoon.
I represent a construction company.
I'm also their attorney.
It's a pleasure. What can I do for you?
Our company is always interested in supporting social causes,
like what you do through your organization.
In this case, our support would be
a million pesos donation.
That's a lot of money.
We'd give you the check at an event
we want to invite you to.
Hi.
What are you doing here?
Do you two know each other?
Yes, unfortunately.
He works for Lady Altagracia Sandoval.
I don't understand what you're doing here.
War is about to start...
Altagracia thought she could get rid of me easily.
I'll be the one to get rid of her.
I want to see that bitch's face
when I point her own gun at her.
Who's there?
If you don't speak up, I'll scream!
Whoever you are!
Leave me alone!
These walls aren't soundproof!
I'm going to scream!
I'm calling the police!
We have no money!
Leave me alone! I have nothing to offer you!
Let go!
No! Please!
Let go, you idiot!
Let go of me!
Let me go!
Leave me alone!
What are you doing? Get off me!
Get off me, idiot!
Gabino! It's you!
I swear to God...
Gabino! It's you!
Gabino, you bastard!
Let go!
Leave me alone, please!
