- Gunter keeps saying your husband will be here
any minute now.
- And I'm afraid they're not just empty threats this time.
- Who are these guys, Gunter? What are they doing here?
- They're here for you, Rosario.
- You need to come with us, ma'am.
- No.
- Why don't you admit you're hiding something
to protect that woman?
Norma: Oscar!
- Oh!
Norma: Stop it! Enough!
- I'll admit that things have gotten out of hand
and that this has become a problem for the whole family.
We all have to help each other.
We're going to settle this.
We're going to face this as a family.
[Glass shatters]
Hey!
Hey you!
- You want to get rid of me and force me to leave that property,
which belongs to me.
- Ma'am, I don't want to hurt you,
especially not if Duvan is there.
- Take this so you'll learn! Calixta: Crazy bitch!
[♪♪♪]
- What's your problem, crazy bitch?
Let go.
Ms. Jimena, please open your eyes.
Mr. Oscar!
Ms. Jimena, please open your eyes.
Calixta: Mr. Oscar, Mr. Oscar!
Oscar: What's going on? Calixta: Come quickly!
[♪♪♪]
Natalia: Cosme, what happened?
Cosme: Ms. Jimena...
- Cosme!
Start talking!
- Romina.
- What do you mean Romina?
[♪♪♪]
- Yes, sir, right now we're heading north of San Marcos.
Yes, sir.
- Ms. Rosario says it's a very large area
with lots of haciendas and country houses.
- Bastard. Let me talk to him!
- Yes, sir. - Sit down!
- It'll take us about two hours to get to
Ms. Sara Elizondo's hacienda.
Of course.
We'll keep you posted.
- How do you feel, honey?
- My head... - Easy.
- My head hurts a lot.
- Natalia, call a medic.
Cosme, how are you?
- Yes, sir, and Dr. Alvarez too.
He lives nearby and may be able to get here sooner.
- Oscar...
- What is it?
- The person who did this to me is Duvan's mother.
She's a bad woman.
[♪♪♪]
[Panting]
- Are you okay, ma'am?
Don't worry.
We're almost getting to where your daughter is.
[♪♪♪]
- Do you feel better after taking those painkillers, honey?
- Yes, I feel better. It hurts less.
- Just be a patient.
The doctor's on his way. Don't worry.
- What'd they do to you, Jimena?
- Oh, sis, what happened?
- The doctor's on his way.
Fortunately, she's better.
Thank you all for coming.
- Of course.
- Did you see who attacked you?
- The woman from the millhouse.
She also attacked Cosme.
The staff saw everything.
Erick: Hm.
Let's investigate.
Excuse us.
- Juan.
Did you talk to the captain?
We all agreed to meet at the millhouse.
Romina won't have enough rocks and much less bullets
to welcome all her visitors this time.
- Oh, Juan.
[♪♪♪]
- Dear God, what are you saying?
This is a complete disaster, Quintina.
What does that woman want? What's she thinking?
I'm glad everyone's going over to confront that lunatic.
- I'll be over to see Jimena soon.
Okay, thank you, Quintina.
- What happened, Mom?
More problems at Uncle Oscar's house?
- Apparently, the same woman who shot your grandmother
has now attacked your aunt Jimena
and hit her over the head with a rock.
Can you believe that?
- I'm so sorry. Poor Jimena.
- Shouldn't we be there to help with something?
- No, honey, we'll only be in the way.
They're already confronting that psychopath.
- I'm guessing Juan David is with them.
- Yes, he is.
He always takes charge in our family problems.
- I'd like to see Aunt Jimena.
So would I, but help me right now by going to school.
Okay?
We'll go later.
- Okay, bye.
- Bye.
- Keep me posted. -Okay.
- This is where Ms. Jimena went down
when that witch hit her with the rock.
She wasn't satisfied and tried to finish her off,
but Cosme stopped her.
- Didn't you stop her? You let her get away.
- Who could stop that lunatic?
She hit Cosme with a rock too.
- How'd she get in and how'd she leave?
- How else, sir? There, through the woods.
Instead of leaving through the parking area,
she went that way, back into the valley.
- Huh.
You see?
That hag comes and goes as she pleases through the woods.
Let's check it out.
We might even run into that stone thrower.
Where'd this witch get in through?
- Of course.
There's direct access from the woods.
[Whistles] - Look.
Let's go.
It's got to be through here.
Leon: Of course.
[♪♪♪]
[Brakes hiss]
Gonzalo: Whoa.
[♪♪♪]
- Is this Ms. Sara Elizondo's hacienda?
- Yes, it is and I'm the foreman.
How can I help you?
- We're here for Ms. Muriel Caballero.
- Who wants to see her?
- Rosario Montes, her mother.
- The owner of the ranch isn't here right now
and no visitors are allowed in her absence,
much less a vehicle like this.
- It's fine if we can't come in.
Call Ms. Muriel.
We'll be happy to wait for her.
- Sorry, but I'm not calling anyone.
- Just give her this card.
She'll decide if she wants to see us or not.
We're not moving from here.
Thank you, young man.
[♪♪♪]
Erick: Batting a thousand.
That's right.
Romina Clemente!
[♪♪♪]
Open the door!
- We're the nephews of Oscar Reyes and Jimena Elizondo,
the owners of this house!
[Knocking] [Rattling]
Open up!
Erick: We know you're in there.
Don't hide, princess.
[♪♪♪]
- Erick.
- Hm?
[Chuckles]
- We need a ladder.
[♪♪♪]
- We don't need one.
- Go ahead.
[♪♪♪]
There you have it.
[♪♪♪]
I'm going in.
[Clattering]
[♪♪♪]
- Erick!
Did you find anything?
- What are you doing?
Why are you in my house?
- Who are you?
- Leave my mom alone.
Get out of here!
- Erick, come down.
We've got one angry kid down here.
- Get out of here!
Now!
[♪♪♪]
Muriel: Who's here, Gonzalo?
- I couldn't tell you, miss.
They said your mother wants to see you,
but they're in a big truck.
I didn't even see her.
- I don't understand and I'm getting scared.
- One of the guys sent you this card.
- I knew this would happen.
They're at the entrance, right?
- Yes, they're there waiting.
- I'm going to see them.
- No, miss.
You're not setting foot outside of here.
It could be dangerous.
- I know what all of this is about and I have to see them.
- Fine, if that's your decision,
there's a horse waiting for you outside.
You know it's a good way.
Excuse me.
- Thank you.
[♪♪♪]
Duvan: No one's allowed to come into the house
without permission.
You can't come in. Leave.
- Relax, shorty.
Erick.
- Where'd this shrimp come from?
- It seems he's the son of the woman who lives here
and he's angry because he doesn't want us to be here.
- Why were you in my house?
- The kid's got guts.
I like that.
We need to talk to your Mom, though.
Where is she?
[Vehicles approach]
[Sirens]
[♪♪♪]
- Mom!
Mom, please open!
There are a lot of people out here!
Everyone's here!
[♪♪♪]
- Ms. Muriel.
- Good afternoon, Ms. Muriel.
- Dimitri, Octavio.
It's strange to see you here.
- Your father sent us with very specific instructions.
We had no choice...
- I don't need any explanations.
I just want to know one thing:
Is he in San Marcos?
- No, miss, not yet.
And what does he want,
for me to duck my head and leave with you two?
- No, miss, we're not here for that.
It's best if we tell you everything inside the car.
- Don't worry, Gonzalo.
- You sure?
[♪♪♪]
- Ms. Romina Clemente, we're the highest authority
in San Marcos and we order you to come out immediately!
- Mom, please!
Oscar: Duvan, get over here. Listen to me!
Duvan: Mom!
[♪♪♪]
- You're all against me.
Of course.
None of you dared to come alone
because you're too scared to take on a woman.
- I'm not afraid of you, ma'am.
I faced you and look, you attacked me like an animal,
in a such a cold, evil way I've never seen before.
What have I done to you?
Tell me.
Why did you attack me? I don't even know you.
- You've hurt me a lot,
much more than you can imagine.
You've taken what's mine.
- Stop fighting, Mom.
You're staying here by my side, by your mother's side.
I don't want you near that evil witch.
I forbid you.
- Oh, you want my son?
You want to take him away from me, Jimena Elizondo?
Are you going to take him or what?
[♪♪♪]
- Did they hurt you, Mom?
- No.
I'm fine.
They just brought me here to see you.
- Ms. Muriel, your father's orders are for you to go back
to Ms. Rosario's house.
You shouldn't live in this place away from her.
- He can give whatever order he wants,
but he can't force me.
I'm not a child he can manipulate at his whim.
- You'll have to discuss that with Mr. Caballero, Ms. Muriel.
- We're only here to do our job.
- And how do you expect me to go back to my mother's
after she kicked me out?
Hm?
- If you can't stand me, you can stay here.
That's your decision.
Oh, come on, Mom.
Don't play the victim.
You're the one who can't stand me
and who obviously won't change.
You were forced to come here.
- She was forced, but we didn't hurt her.
- And if you don't come to an agreement,
and you insist on staying in this place,
this will end badly.
- Are you threatening us, you moron?
- Ms. Rosario, we already told, we don't make threats.
We're simply following orders.
- Ms. Muriel, if you insist on staying at this hacienda
away from your mother, that's your problem.
- Please, get out. Visiting time is over.
I'm not leaving without talking to my mother alone first.
Get out of here.
Didn't you hear me?
Get out of the truck!
We can have an honest conversation
or let everything end here.
It's your call.
[♪♪♪]
- Why did this happen to me?
- How are Oscar and Jimena?
- They're fine, Mom.
Apparently, it was an accident.
A hunter in the area.
You know we live near the woods.
He was very irresponsible.
- Sara.
Hunting is forbidden in this area.
- I know.
That's exactly why they're investigating.
Promise me something, though.
Don't die on me.
I need you here with us.
- I promise, Sara.
- Hello.
Sara, what a pleasure to see you.
Sara: Demetrio.
- Oh, my friend.
I haven't stopped thinking of you.
I've been counting the minutes until I get to see you again.
How do you feel?
- Oh, Demetrio, you're always so sweet.
Thank you.
- Allow me.
I was telling my mother that this was an accident
caused by a hunter who made a mistake.
He was in the area and, well...
- Yes, it was an unfortunate accident, Gabriela,
but don't worry.
Sarita, her children, and I
are taking care of your hacienda.
- Thank you.
I've been very worried about everyone's safety.
How are Oscar and Jimena?
How's my little girl?
- Fine, Mom.
Everyone's fine. No problems.
[♪♪♪]
Officer: Ms. Romina Clemente,
you're under arrest
for aggravated assault against Mrs. Jimena Reyes
and Mr. Cosme Morales.
- You're also a suspect in the attempted homicide
and lethal injury of Ms. Gabriela Acevedo.
- Not you, Mom.
- I don't give a damn if you accuse me of throwing
a few pebbles,
but not of shooting that woman.
I don't even know her.
I've never even seen a gun.
You even came here the other day, tore everything apart,
and never found anything.
Juan: The attack against Jimena and her worker are enough.
Right, Captain?
- So, you're arresting me
for throwing a few pebbles, Mr. Reyes?
Norma: You're so shameless.
A few pebbles?
Look at my sister's face.
And not to mention what you did to her worker.
Or are you going to deny that too?
- What do you want, ma'am?
For me to sit still like an idiot while you people
come here to harass me, tear apart my house,
and snoop through everything?
No, ma'am.
I was only defending myself
and giving you what you deserve!
You're not going to throw my son out on the street like some dog.
I have rights.
- What rights are you talking about?
This house is our property.
- For your information, Ms. Elizondo,
Oscar let me live here.
Tell her, Oscar.
- I let you live here,
but now I'm asking you to leave right away.
I've offered you a much nicer house several times
so you can live there with your son, but you refused.
- Why the hell would you do that?
What do you owe that woman?
- Tell them, Oscar.
Tell them why I won't accept the crumbs you threw at us.
- Crumbs?
That's what you think?
You don't even deserve that.
- I deserve a lot more than your frigid sister.
I have a lot more rights than this woman.
I deserve to live at your hacienda
as the lady of the house and you know it.
- You don't even know what you're talking about.
- Do you know why I'm saying this?
Because this fine gentleman, this man with airs of a king,
your husband...
is the father of my child.
- Oscar.
- Are you going to deny it, Oscar?
Tell her.
Are you going to deny it in front of your son?
Talk!
- I won't deny it.
I've never denied it, and I never will.
This boy here...
is my son.
[♪♪♪]
[♪ Theme song ♪]
- We're headed towards the station.
- What do you think of that, Jimena?
Still think you have rights?
- No, just a minute.
My son is coming with me.
- Don't worry, ma'am.
The boy is also coming with us.
- Let's go.
[♪♪♪]
- You don't have to go.
Come with us. I'll take you home.
- I'm going to the station.
I want to.
[Whimpers]
Don't come near me.
[♪♪♪]
Muriel: You'll never escape Dad, okay?
He's been watching you this whole time.
He knows where you go and who you talk to.
You've been surrounded by spies this whole time,
starting with that idiot Gunter.
- Yes, I know.
I always knew that cretin wasn't my ally, but a warden.
Bastard.
- Dad hasn't come here because he's using me to convince you
to go back to him.
He never imagined I'd stay here.
That's why we have to come together to stop him
and give him time to reconsider
and understand that he has to let us be free.
- What are you suggesting?
That we fake a reconciliation?
- Do you realize what you're saying?
I'm your daughter, not your enemy.
If I go back, it's under the condition
that you'll respect my decisions
and my personal life
and you'll stay out of my relationship with Juan David.
And if you can't do that,
then there's nothing else for us to talk about.
[♪♪♪]
I love you, Mom.
Despite everything, I do love you.
And I wish you the best of luck.
- I accept.
I accept all your conditions, just please come back to me.
Please.
- We insist that you didn't have to come here.
You should be at the hospital or at home
being taken care of, Ms. Jimena.
- I'm not moving until the entire process is over.
- We'll take care of Jimena.
If something happens or if she doesn't feel well,
she'll come with us.
- I think we've proven the assault charge
against Ms. Jimena and Mr. Cosme.
Ms. Romina, you're under arrest until further notice.
- This is an outrage.
- We're also going to start an investigation
for the attempted homicide of Ms. Gabriela Acevedo.
- Where are the weapons?
- We have testimonies and witnesses assuring
that you have firearms in your home.
Trust me, we're going to conduct a thorough search.
- You can't detain me.
Who's going to take care of my son?
Who's going to make sure he's safe?
- Obviously me.
I'm that boy's father. I'll take care of him.
- Sir, I understand that you claim you're the minor's father,
but we have no legal evidence of that.
He'll remain under our care until social services
ensures his protection.
Regarding Ms. Romina Clemente's trespassing case, that's closed.
Mr. Oscar Reyes gave her permission
to live on that property.
- I'd like to intervene there.
I'm also part owner of that property
and I not only allow this woman to live there,
I also insist that she stays there as long as necessary.
It's not the child's fault.
It's his right to live somewhere safe and decent.
If it were up to me, he would live in my house.
- Aw, so sweet.
Look at the weakling crying. You hypocrite!
- Shut up! Let go of me!
- Calm down. - Don't touch me!
- Enough!
- That's enough! All of you!
Damn it!
[♪♪♪]
[♪ Theme song ♪]
[Creaking]
[♪♪♪]
- I can't believe this, Rosi.
You brought back Muriel, but look at you.
- You look exhausted, ma'am.
- Don't say another word.
Be quiet and help me, please.
- What do you need?
Would you like anything in particular?
- I need a shower, water, and food.
- Blanca, please prepare a bath
as well as something to eat and drink.
- Yes, ma'am. - Thank you.
- I need to regain my strength to face what's coming next.
[♪♪♪]
Norma: How do you feel?
- Better.
I can barely open my eyes, though.
I feel very heavy.
- Don't worry, that's normal.
They gave you a sedative so your head won't hurt
and so you can rest.
- I want to die.
[♪♪♪]
Sara: When did this happen?
I can't believe Rosario took back her daughter.
- I got a terrible feeling
when I saw that big truck arrive.
That's why we didn't let it in.
- You shouldn't have let her leave, Gonzalo.
- She wanted to after I gave her the card they sent.
I couldn't stop her from seeing those guys.
- I'm scared they took her by force or under threat.
- I don't think so, Ms. Gaby.
She knew those men and handled the situation very well.
- The problem now is, what do we tell Juan David?
He has a lot on his plate right now
with everything happening with Oscar and Jimena.
What do we say? How do we tell him she left?
- I called Uncle Juan's house and everyone is running around.
Let's call Andres.
Maybe he's heard from Muriel.
- My phone.
- It's right here, ma'am.
- Thank you.
[Cell phone rings]
- Hello?
Muriel.
Muriel, how are you? Are you okay?
- Sarita, I'm sorry for the way I left your house.
I'm fine, but I had no choice.
I had to avoid any drama between my parents.
I'm so grateful to all of you.
I had a wonderful time with you and Gaby
and I promise we'll keep seeing each other.
You're all part of my family now.
- Okay, sweetheart, thank you for saying that.
I'm just worried about Juan David.
How do we tell him you left?
What will we tell him?
No, he hasn't called or been by, but he won't be long.
I'll let you know.
- Ms. Sarita, your nephew Juan David just arrived.
- Okay.
[♪♪♪]
[Engine shuts off]
Sara: Hi, honey.
Juan David: Hey.
- Good morning.
- How are you?
- Fine.
- Looking beautiful.
- Thank you, sweetie. - What's up?
- How are things?
- Well, it's a hairy situation,
and there are big problems to come,
but I hope we can handle them.
- How's Aunt Jimena?
- Fine, she's better.
It was a hard blow, but you know how stubborn she is.
She wanted to go down to the millhouse, so she did.
- Did they arrest that lunatic?
- Yes, they did.
It doesn't end there, though.
My mom will probably call you soon to explain everything.
- I want to go in and see Muriel.
May I?
- She's not here.
- Where'd she go?
- Well, she went home.
She decided to go back to her mother.
[♪♪♪]
[♪ Theme song ♪]
- I would love to stay here tonight.
Want me to stay? I'll stay.
- Thank you for being such a good sister, but don't worry.
Juan and your kids need you.
- Are you sure?
Okay.
- Am I interrupting?
- I'm heading out.
Sis...
remember what I told you.
I'm only a phone call away if you need me.
- Norma, thank you for your unconditional support
and for worrying about your sister,
and for being here.
- You should rest too.
Get some rest, sis.
[♪♪♪]
- Jimena.
- Don't come near me, please.
- I need to talk to you, even if it's just a few words
and then I won't bother you anymore.
- I don't want to see you.
All I need to do is leave this house.
- Please don't say that. I beg you.
- I need to be alone, Oscar.
- That's fine.
Look, I promise I won't bother you.
I'll go to the guest room and wait for you there.
But please, for the love of God...
don't leave me.
I know I don't deserve to even ask you for this,
but please, let's not split up.
Take your time.
I couldn't bear it, honey.
I couldn't.
[Sighs]
[♪♪♪]
Norma: I wanted to stay with Jimena tonight.
- Why didn't you?
She didn't want me to.
Plus, I think I'd be in the way.
She probably wants to talk to Oscar.
What would I be doing there?
- More than talking, those two need a good fight.
A good fight so they can let out
everything they're holding in and calm down.
- They're not up for any kind of discussion right now.
They're not okay.
Jimena is emotionally traumatized and so is Oscar.
- Yes, it's not the right time.
- I feel bad for my brother.
- You feel bad for him?
Are you defending Oscar now?
- Of course not, honey,
but I feel bad for that dummy.
He's suffering over Jimena and his son.
- I can't believe he has a son.
- How did he hide it for so long?
He completely shocked us with the news.
- All of us.
[♪♪♪]
- Coz!
I'm so glad to have you here. What brings you?
- Have you seen Muriel?
- I'm guessing she's at the hacienda.
Why?
- Because your mom told me she was here with Rosario.
- What?
- Now I'm really shocked.
I didn't even know Rosario had come back.
I thought she was still missing.
- So did I.
I need to talk to Muriel and find out what happened.
Will you help me find her?
- Of course, come this way.
Come on.
- Go back to rehearsal. I want to talk to her alone.
- Don't leave without telling me what happened.
- I won't.
I'll be back. Thanks.
[Knocking]
- Hey.
[♪♪♪]
What happened?
Are you okay?
- I'm fine, are you?
- Why'd you leave my aunt's house without telling me?
- I know.
- Was it your mom?
- No, let me explain.
- What was it?
- Who gave you permission to come in here?
- You're the one who's coming in without permission, Gunter.
- You just got here
and you're already receiving secret visitors.
- You'd better show some respect.
- I'll say the same.
You're no longer with people who'll cover all your whims.
- Shut your damn mouth before I break your face.
- Let go of me.
- Juan David, put him down.
Enough, leave him.
Let him.
And leave my room, Gunter.
[♪♪♪]
- What are you doing?
- What am I doing?
Should I have let him talk to you that way?
No way.
We're leaving to my house right now, you hear me?
- All of this was orchestrated by my dad, Juan David.
It's my dad.
Stop.
Stop, stop.
[♪♪♪]
- Juan David is here?
Are you sure?
- In Muriel's room, to be more specific.
He couldn't wait to come get her.
I didn't want to tell you,
but seeing as how others stayed silent,
I had no choice.
I know I can't trust anyone anymore.
Not even you.
- I've helped you.
I've always been your loyal servant.
- You're only faithful to the monster of my husband,
who pulls your strings like a puppet.
Stop meddling in my affairs, would you?
- I'll take care of Juan David.
[♪♪♪]
- Sweetie.
- Hm?
- It's true that things have changed a bit,
but we'll keep seeing each other.
- Changed a bit?
Everything has changed.
I have to come see you at this house.
- It's a matter of adapting.
- Adapting.
To what?
To your mother's disgusting attitude?
- Honey, people don't change.
People don't change overnight.
People who are trash keep being trash.
- Yes, but this time we came to an agreement
for both our sakes
and I honestly don't think she'll let me down.
- What kind of agreement?
Any minute now she'll come and start trouble.
