TELEMUNDO PRESENTS
LADY ALTAGRACIA
I'm free?
Really?
Yes, you're officially free.
You're really going to shoot me?
That's your plan?
Eye for an eye until we're all blind.
Don't try me.
He's not like other men.
He's different.
No!
Officer Gabino Dominguez.
At your service.
Monica.
Don't kid yourself, Altagracia.
Don't be ridiculous.
You can't stop talking about Saul.
You obviously care about him...
because you like him.
Ma'am, can you please check up on my house?
My mom's in danger!
Sweetie... your house went up in flames
with your mother still inside.
Margarita? What are you doing here?
She just arrived from Veracruz.
-What? -Yes.
Saul!
It wasn't enough for this bastard to torture me
and have me arrested.
He just killed my mother, too.
I'd be working on having that rapist arrested
if I didn't have to come deal with you.
Relax. Calm down.
Oh, God!
We need to take her to a hospital.
Jorge, bring my car around.
Wait.
I can take her in one of my cars.
Transporting her will be easier that way.
Thank you, but we don't need your help.
You'll waste time if you take her to a local clinic.
I have connections at a nearby private hospital.
Let's go. Time is of the essence.
Lady Altagracia's right, Saul.
My dad and I had to wait in a really long line
when we went to the hospital.
Thank you, sweetie.
Finally, someone realizes I only want to help.
Let's go.
Alright.
Emiliano, honey.
What?
About that boy you brought home earlier.
What was his name again?
Marcos... Beltran, I think.
Is it true he's on a scholarship?
Yeah. Why would I lie about that?
Hey, Diego.
You and Isabela are close friends, right?
Does she spend a lot of time with Marcos?
I mean, knowing Altagracia,
I'm surprised she allows her niece to spend so much time
with someone who's on financial aid.
I asked you a question, Diego.
Does Altagracia know
about Isabela's friendship with Marcos?
Enough, Mom. Leave him alone.
We're playing a game! Can't you see?
Alright, fine. I'll leave.
Bye, Diego.
Diego!
Why'd you leave that on your ear?
Aren't you worried about your parents finding out
that you smoke?
Diego, please.
You saw how my mom is.
She only worries about herself.
Her viewers, her fame,
and who Isabela hangs out with, apparently.
As far as I'm concerned...
my parents are far too busy to care about me.
That's that.
I shouldn't have left her alone.
I knew this could happen.
I knew this bastard would strike again.
Saul, enough already.
You did your part by getting her out of jail.
You don't need to act like you're her husband or father.
What was the point of getting her out of prison
if that sadist keeps trying to hurt her?
Are you Saul's girlfriend?
Yes, I am.
Are you the infamous Lady Altagracia?
I wouldn't say infamous,
although I'm sure Saul's told you a lot about me.
Yes, he has,
especially about all the conflicts you've caused
at the tenement.
We don't keep secrets from one another.
Get away from me.
It's the devil's mark!
Leave me alone!
Calm down.
She fainted again.
Is this the same girl you told me about?
-The one from Veracruz? -Yes, this is her.
You two talked about that?
I thought the only thing you spoke to her about
was about your dad's case.
Am I missing something here?
The topic came up
because he mentioned that he had to leave this girl
to come free his father.
What was that about the devil's mark?
During trial,
Margarita declared that the man who raped her
had a tattoo on his chest.
If I'd I known things were going to get this complicated,
I would've thrown the party another day.
We're not psychic.
How were we supposed to know
that Lady Altagracia would show up?
I think she's bad luck!
Don't say that, Magda.
She came to make peace with us.
She even brought a tree.
Not only that,
she took the girl that fainted to a hospital.
I agree with Mr. Jaime.
I think she's just trying to win points with Saul.
You should've seen the looks she was giving him.
She wasn't just looking at him.
She was devouring him.
It's like she was on the hunt!
She only came to make amends.
She isn't to blame for the attack on the tenement,
that engineer guy is.
That engineer was her employee.
They're on the same team.
Nah.
She has no motive to hurt us.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have apologized to the Aguirres.
Why would she come all the way here to do that, anyway?
Oh, girl...
Give her the best treatment available.
I'll cover all of the costs.
Very well, ma'am.
Get me Doctor Labastida wherever he is.
He's in the OR, ma'am.
I don't care.
He's the best doctor here.
Find him.
I want him to treat her personally.
Who was she talking about?
Who kidnapped her?
Some pervert.
He locked her up and raped her.
Not only that,
he would tell her all about the atrocities he's done
to other women.
What kind of atrocities?
I don't know.
Horrible things in general.
He's been killing women all over Veracruz for over 20 years now.
20 years?
Yes.
It appears that psychopath's been able to dodge the police
for over two decades.
But who is he? What is his name?
Lady Altagracia, look.
You've helped us more than enough.
I wouldn't want to take up any more of your time.
Pardon me.
I should've gone with them to the hospital.
Don't worry, sweetie.
Saul's going to make sure she receives good care.
It's not Margarita I'm worried about.
It's Lady Altagracia.
I don't trust her.
Don't worry, Jaime.
She came on good terms.
Good terms, my foot.
Didn't you see the way she was looking at our son?
She was undressing him with her eyes.
Well, what do you expect?
Our son is very handsome.
It's normal for women to stare at him.
However, I don't think she has her sights set on him.
What if she wants to seduce and ultimately manipulate him?
You know what else I'm worried about?
Our son is a man.
Lady Altagracia may be a corrupt, heartless witch,
but she's still a beautiful woman.
She's gorgeous...
but I don't think Saul will fall for her charms.
Besides, Saul would never betray us or Ximena like that.
He'd better not.
I'd never forgive him if he did.
Altagracia.
I'm happy you're home early.
You've been coming home late lately.
I wasn't aware I had a curfew.
Nonsense. That's not what I meant.
I just think it's odd...
I know I promised not to ask any more questions,
but is everything alright?
More questions?
I'm glad you held back on asking.
I'm not going to ask any questions
regarding your business or how you manage it.
I'm really just worried about you.
You don't seem well.
I have things on my mind.
I need to speak to Regina.
Hey.
I just want you to know
that I think you're handling the tenement situation
with that man Jaime Aguirre quite admirably.
I'm glad you're trying to do things the easy way.
That's what worries me.
What?
I never do things the easy way.
What's the matter, Altagracia?
What is it?
I think I've found one of them, Regina.
One of who? What are you talking about?
One of the bastards who raped me.
The same man who killed Cesar... and our parents.
Altagracia ordered me to free Jaime Aguirre.
I don't want to talk about it.
I'm a judge, Braulio.
I can't keep making orders and going back on them.
It's bad for my image!
Are you listening?
Yes, I'm listening!
You bore me.
You won't stop whining about Altagracia.
I'm trying to make you see...
Quit talking about her. You're not Altagracia.
You wouldn't understand her motives.
She gives the orders, and you follow them.
What about you?
Do you follow her orders, too?
You're nothing more than another one of her dogs.
Oh, am I?
If it bothers you so much, you should get away from her
and get closer to me.
I'm not like her.
I don't like dominating men.
I like being dominated.
Altagracia has never cared about you.
I, on the other hand, know how to value you.
You decide, Braulio.
Who's the woman you truly want?
Wait.
So she's also a victim of the Monkeys?
I don't know.
All I know is, she's from Veracruz like us.
The man who kidnapped her has been raping and killing women
for over 20 years.
That coincides with the dates we were attacked.
Altagracia, you know what the statistics are
regarding crimes against women in this country.
I read countless articles online every day!
I don't care.
I want revenge for what they did to me.
Just last year,
there were over 100 women killed in Veracruz.
Do you think that was all the work of just one person?
It's too odd.
It can't all be a coincidence.
That girl spoke of the mark of the devil.
She said he had a tattoo on his chest...
just like the bastards that raped me.
Doesn't that apply to most rapists, though?
Lots of them have awful tattoos and scars.
What if I go to Veracruz and hunt him down?
You can't!
Their faces may have been covered,
but I haven't forgotten the look in their eyes.
Theirs mouths... that stench.
What if I recognize him?
Please, Altagracia.
You can't do this.
A portal has been opened
and I'm not going to ignore it.
I'm going in.
My life won't have meaning
until I've gained vengeance on all of them.
Understood?
I love feeling you.
I love having you.
Oh, Altagracia...
Mother. Father.
Cesar...
I think I've found him.
I found him, honey.
He's one of them, alright.
I'm almost sure of it.
Spirits of the night...
you were present the day my life was ruined on that pier.
You constantly send me messages.
Tell me he's one of the rapists.
Don't sneak away again, Altagracia.
The devil is always on the hunt for victims.
The devil!
There was a bird like you there that night.
You're the sign I was asking for.
I'm right after all, Cesar.
That man is a member of the Monkeys.
LADY ALTAGRACIA
