Hello?
Hello! Ms. Hilda, it's me!
-Jota? -Jota!
Goodness gracious, you're awake?
Yes, thankfully I'm not calling from the Great Beyond.
-You're so silly! -He's awake!
Did you call Albeiro?
No, Ms. Hilda. I...
I haven't had a chance to see or talk to him because...
Ms. Hilda, he...
He... left.
What do you mean?
He's gone forever.
Don't worry, though. You're in great hands.
Our center has helped many people in your situation.
I guarantee your family will be happy with the results.
We've handled cases similar to or worse than yours
and everything has worked out.
So don't worry, okay?
Mr. Marin, come with me, please. Come with me.
Right this way.
It is necessary, Agent Santana.
Is it really?
Do you think I'm joking?
No, of course not, but it is hard to believe.
Is it?
The ingredient list on the new drug is what's hard to believe.
Fentanyl and the latest methamphetamine concoction.
It can cause serious harm to those who consume it.
That's not the worst of it, though.
There's more?
It seems it's highly addictive.
We were aware this drug was being developed.
It's being called XY4.
What can I say, Rubens? This is terrible.
And we've yet to find out what other components it has.
We need to get to work and do what we always do.
We need to stop this new drug from being trafficked.
That's precisely why I wanted to talk with you.
Of course.
Who, besides your daughter, do you think is behind
the creation of this new drug?
They will be hounding us like dogs.
You bet they are, Black Hand.
They were impressed by what XY4 can do.
They will surely ask for thousands shipments.
How could they not?
We already introduced the drug to the world.
The media did their best to try to hide it,
but our buyers witnessed it firsthand.
Hard to believe we presented the world's most powerful drug
right under the DEA's nose.
And they were unable to stop us.
It really is the US's most inept agency.
All the more reason to celebrate.
Cheers!
To the DEA!
To the fall of the DEA and my mother, Agent Catalina Santana.
And to the worldwide success of XY4.
Cheers!
Speaking of Catalina Santana.
Aside from her desperate desire to find us, how is she doing?
Not well.
She hasn't taken her daughter choosing the dark side well.
And she's desperately trying to figure out
what ingredients make up XY4.
At most, they'll find three of its ingredients,
but not its main ingredient.
That's where our strength lies.
And that's what we'll use to close deals with our buyers.
That's right.
They will be pleasantly surprised.
Aurelio Jaramillo, aka Titi,
is also responsible for the drug's creation.
Or that's what Colombian intelligence reports indicate.
Titi. An old acquaintance, huh?
An old acquaintance. That's right.
I don't have any more names.
Our investigation is still in its initial stages.
One of my agents is very close to figuring it out, though.
Can we trust this agent?
Well, she's more trustworthy than Agent Osman.
I guarantee that.
That was a low blow for the organization and me.
I'm sorry, Rubens, but I'm not one to beat around the bush.
You've gathered as much in our brief time working together.
And yes, you have every reason not to trust me,
but let me tell you something.
I've been at this for many years.
I experienced the world of drug trafficking firsthand
and I know exactly how to navigate it.
I don't doubt it.
I trust you,
but I want to teach you to doubt those working under you.
I don't want you to go through
what we went through with Osman.
From now on, I cordially ask that you not trust anyone.
Not even your own shadow. Understood?
Of course.
I'm sick of hearing Black Hand go on about his surprise.
I see I'm not the only one who doesn't trust him.
I mean, how could I?
He keeps bringing it up, but won't say what it is.
It's complicated, huh?
Think he wants to get us out of the business?
If he were, we'd get the short end of the stick.
But let me tell you something.
If he's capable of betrayal, I'll kill him.
I won't let him use us as bait.
Who could it be?
Relax, we're in Black Hand's hotel.
Exactly.
Who is it?
Room service.
Did you order something?
-Titi? -What?
You're not going to say it?
Welcome to Las Vegas!
How's my little girl's mother doing?
Close the door.
Has she been good? How's she doing?
What are you doing here?
I'm here and I'm here to stay. You know, the desert is hot.
Can I get a drink?
No.
The place smells nice.
Were you being naughty? Let's see what's over here.
I'm mostly worried about my children.
I haven't seen them in two years.
I'm mostly worried about my daughter, Mariana.
Is she very young?
She's legally an adult. She's a mother too.
Last I heard of her before being sent here
was that she'd gotten involved with some narcos.
That's strange. You're obviously a good man.
Kindness offers no guarantees in life, Shadow.
You're so wise, Doctor.
Right.
How has my kindness and wisdom helped me?
Where has it gotten me?
I understand.
Power corrupts man.
Unfortunately, the world turns on the good.
Powerful and corrupt people sent me here.
They stripped me of my dignity, life, family, and profession.
I know all about injustice.
Some day I'll tell you my life story.
You know something, though?
You can count on me.
I'm going to help you.
How?
Money, protection.
I'll help you hide so you can prepare your return
and above all your revenge, Doctor.
Thank you.
I accept your help, Shadow.
Anything to get my life and family back.
And you will.
-Doctor! -What is it?
It seems the patient regained the strength he had
-when he ingested the drug. -What do you mean? Why?
We can't subdue him!
Get the sedatives ready ASAP.
Right away.
Let go!
Get me out of here! I need to get out!
Jota, what's wrong? Calm down, Jota!
I need to get out of here! I need to talk to my friend!
You're not well and I can't let you leave.
-Here you are, Doctor! -Let me out!
No, no!
What are you doing to him?
Jota! Jota, it's Hilda.
It's so nice to see you, Ms. Hilda.
There, there, Jotica.
Yeah, very nice.
I'm doing great, Ms. Hilda. It's so nice to see you.
There, there. It's okay.
You're not alone anymore.
No, I'm fine.
There, there.
How do you feel?
I don't know.
Have some water. Your blood pressure dropped.
Yes, that's right. You'll soon feel better.
Please leave us alone.
Yes, Doctor.
I imagine you weren't ready to learn of the results, sir.
I thought...
I thought I was ready for this,
but I don't wish this on anyone.
I understand.
We ran an antigen test.
We should run another test to confirm the results.
Wait... does that mean that maybe I don't... have it?
What are you trying to say?
That's right.
We ran a test to detect the presence of antigens.
But it has three limiting factors.
First, the presence of antibodies
could give us a low level reading or a false negative.
"What I did was wrong, Hilda.
It was wrong and it hurts to accept it,
but it hurts more to say it.
Please know that loving you in the time we spent together
never felt wrong.
I'll always carry that time in my heart.
It's an indelible memory..."
Indelible?
"I'll never forget the memory of our time together, Hilda."
I don't understand, Jota.
Why is this happening?
It's all that bitch Diabla's fault.
Why does she hate us so much?
Jealousy.
She's never known true happiness
so she wanted... to take away our happiness.
Will this ever end, Jota?
Will we ever leave this hell?
Will we ever get to paradise?
Jota... what's wrong with Albeiro?
Huh? No...
No...
No, no...
I don't know how to answer your question.
I don't know how...
I'll tell you how.
With the truth, Jota.
Like you should.
Don't you think I deserve to know the truth?
No! Yes!
We all deserve to know the truth but don't pressure me.
Look at what you're doing.
Tell me, Jota.
I know you can do it.
I can't. You're making me nervous.
No, no.
Settle down. I understand.
Between you and me, it feels so strange to be back home.
Well, given how you described their relationship,
she's taken it rather well.
I'm not surprised, though. She's mature, smart, and sweet.
On the other hand, you should talk to your father.
Don't even bring him up.
Stop trying to fool yourself, Cata.
I know you love him.
You should give him a chance and hear what he has to say.
Sandi, I don't want to listen to anything he has to say.
Lastly, there's the test's low detection rate.
But I can't guarantee your next test will come back negative.
That's why you need to undergo a confirmatory test.
Do you understand?
Mr. Marin, I asked if you're willing
to undergo a confirmatory test?
Yes.
Allow me to explain what a confirmatory test is.
Its purpose is to find the infection HIV creates,
especially in patients like you
who have undergone presumptive testing,
testing which is twice as reactive.
This is a very specific test.
It looks for antibodies that fight HIV and its components.
That's why it's necessary to undergo a confirmatory test.
Do you agree to it?
Do it!
Cata, he's human. Humans make mistakes.
You, Ms. Hilda, myself, we all make mistakes.
You hit the nail on the head, Sandi.
I idolized my father.
I saw him as a hero.
I... didn't think he could make any mistake.
