FAKE IDENTITY
I have no reason to stay.
Isabel's back with her husband.
They're a family again. There's nothing to stop me.
What do you say?
-Not now, Porfirio. -Let's go to the bedroom.
-The kids are here. -But...
Tonight.
This has gone on for days
and they still haven't made a decision!
They could release her today.
-Honey! -About time.
There's no police report? No one's reported me?
No, nothing. You should come back.
I want my son's murderer to pay for what he did.
The guys who are going to the border with you are ready.
Alright.
They'll be waiting outside the capital.
He's leaving the country with Circe.
.
My daughter, Circe Gaona,
is Jose Arturo Hernandez's right-hand woman.
They're part of the biggest and most powerful gang in Sonora.
FAKE IDENTITY
Alright, ladies and gentlemen.
Before we take a recess to deliberate,
the court would like the record to show
that we've listened to the witnesses and the defendant
and taken their testimonies into consideration.
We've also taken into consideration
the prosecution's evidence, the defense's,
and the information Mr. Gaona provided for the prosecution.
This court declares a recess.
We will reconvene when we have a verdict.
All rise while the judges make their way out of the room.
How long will these fools take to deliberate?
A few hours. It's part of the protocol.
Good job with the last testimony.
You inspired me.
Mr. Augusto's right.
Your testimony against Circe was the cherry on top.
The entire country will be moved to tears.
You testified against none other than your daughter.
That doesn't happen every day.
I did it so she can't leave the country.
I want her here.
Close, so I can keep an eye on her.
How dare you ask me to give up something?
Did you give up your gym? Your women?
Mind your own business.
You're ridiculous.
-Hey. -Nuria.
Marlene told me what happened.
Do you need to see a doctor?
No!
Are you deaf or something?
Please take care of her.
Don't worry. Thanks.
What happened?
Did you drink too much or was it something else?
Every day I begged for everything to be a nightmare,
but I always got a reality check.
What happened the day you got here was terrifying.
Not just because I was arrested,
but because I was sent to Immigration.
Things looked really bad.
Did they torture you?
No, it's not like that.
But you know Immigration agents aren't exactly respectful.
We're all here illegally so we don't matter.
They'll offend you and laugh at you.
Some people cry, others are afraid, but they don't care.
They don't even let you use the restroom.
It's horrible.
I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
Isn't it tragic that we had to leave our country?
What about you?
- .
Well, I've been looking for work, but you were right.
It's tough when you don't have papers.
I had to ask Deivid for money.
I was so embarrassed because he's your boyfriend, not mine.
He shouldn't have to be responsible for me.
But what do I do without money.
Honey, don't worry. It's better this way.
Why?
I think my time in this country is coming to an end.
I won't go to Immigration to sign in every day
so they can send me back to Venezuela one day.
I'm going back to my original plan.
What plan?
I'm going to the US. We're both going.
I won't leave you.
What?
Don't do that. Tell me what's up with Nuria.
.
-Don't act like you don't know. -But I don't.
Don't play stupid. You know.
I barely recognize her.
We can't tell her she's screwing up the choreography,
because she'll lose it.
If we confront her because she's late,
she'll cuss you out.
And if you comment on her appearance,
she'll look at you all hostile.
It's awful, I know. You're gonna tell me?
Stop playing dumb!
I'm not.
Paloma, you two have gotten close these past few months
and you're always talking.
What about?
It's like you guys don't care about us anymore.
She didn't even ask about Gabriela
so I couldn't tell her she's been released.
She's out! When's she coming back?
Don't change the subject.
I'm not.
I just don't know what's going on with Nuria.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Yes, you do!
All this time I've been trying to get us to be a team.
We should be there for each other.
We all have problems.
You with your thing with Jim.
Isabel has her husband, who almost died.
I had my wedding drama and Gabriela's got her sister.
Nuria's not the exception. I'm worried about her.
She's not doing well and we're losing her.
So stop playing dumb and tell me what's going on.
Alright.
I'll tell you.
Okay.
You can't say anything.
Swear it!
I promise.
What?
Nuria's addicted to methamphetamines.
- .
I'm here to see Truchas.
Go on.
Don't play dumb.
He always hides the aces and his eights.
Thinks he's smart.
What's up?
Hey.
Do you have what I asked for?
Where's the money.
Take it easy. It's here.
------- it. You always pay me less.
You already owe a lot.
I always pay the rest when I get my paycheck.
I'll bring you the rest in a few days.
Come on, man. I need them.
Thanks.
I want all my money next time, whore.
Wait a second.
Didn't you say this country was the best in the world?
It is, but not for me.
This place isn't perfect and I'm marked now.
I'm not staying here to risk being deported.
What about Deivid? What'll happen to him?
He'll be fine.
He's Mexican and he has his business here.
I wouldn't ask him to come with me.
He wouldn't either.
But you love him and he loves you.
I know that.
You've no idea everything he did to get you out of there.
I won't risk a bright future for us in the US for anything,
especially not for a boyfriend.
That's cruel, Gaby.
I know it is, but I have to be realistic.
If you're not, life screws you over
and you know that.
When will we leave?
I wanted to do it now that he isn't here.
But I just can't.
I'll wait for him to get back and tell him.
How long have you known that Nuria's addicted
and hadn't told us?
I've known for a few months. She told me.
But she made Gabriela and me think she'd quit.
I saw her throw her pills down the toilet.
But she hasn't quit.
Otherwise, we wouldn't have found her in that state.
Yeah, but what could I do?
I only just realized she was skipping work
and acting all strange.
She's worse than ever. She's gotta be hooked.
We need to do something to help her.
Why don't we all talk to her tonight?
I promised I wouldn't tell anyone.
Paloma, her life is on the line.
This is life and death.
.
We can't help her if she doesn't trust us.
It's more important to talk to her about this.
You're right. This is more important.
It's her life.
So what do we do?
We talk to her tonight.
The sooner, the better.
Alright.
Girls... let's do this.
Yeah.
I hope she doesn't take it the wrong way.
No, we just want to help her.
There's something else you need to know.
Check this out.
Look.
-What is this? -Read it.
It's the address where Eliseo buried the Guevaras' bodies.
Ms. Fernanda gave it to me.
We're going to Alamos.
We're only missing a few things.
The kitchen is ready.
We're gonna hang some plants here and a then a sign here.
Sound good?
Yeah, it'll look great.
What's wrong? You look sad.
You've been like this for a while.
Oh, Zori!
I made a decision and I don't know if it was the right one.
What decision?
Is it about Salas? You're together now?
Oh, please! No.
Then what is it?
You've been beating around the bush for three months.
I know!
And he hasn't said anything.
He hasn't brought it up since that day we said
we'd try to get to know each other.
Then you bring it up.
-Me?! -Yes! What's the problem?
I thought you were free.
Liberated women do these things.
They take the initiative and are clear about what they want.
Or was that just for show?
You know...
I have to buy some things we still need.
I'll also stop by to see the sign...
and later... I'll take your advice.
I'll talk to Salas...
Don't wait up for me.
Unbelievable!
We both work here and we hadn't run into each other till now.
It's not that hard to believe.
We hadn't run into each other because I was avoiding you.
You're probably happy, right?
I'm grateful, actually. Me and the other girls.
You've kept your word. Your people too.
Jim is happy.
Yeah, that's because you judged me before you met me.
You're right.
Still, this'll probably be the last time we'll see each other.
I heard.
Who told you? Diego?
No, he didn't. Don't worry.
We haven't talked in a while.
-Then who did? -Your mother-in-law.
She said you two are really happy.
That you're in love.
All I can do is wish you well.
Thanks. You should try the same.
Huh?
You and Corona should leave too.
Be happy.
Yeah... I'll see what I can do.
Alright, ladies and gentlemen.
After much deliberation, this court has reached a verdict.
Judge Luis Mejia, you may proceed.
Thank you, Your Honor.
After analyzing the evidence submitted to this court
following standard procedures,
this court recognizes Eliseo Hidalgo Virrueta
was indeed murdered.
However, we must add that the prosecution failed
to provide sufficient information
about the crimes here committed.
Instead, it presented a subjective case
without the necessary depth needed to procure justice.
Henceforth, there does not exist within reasonable doubt
any shred of evidence tying Gavino Gaona
to the murder of Eliseo Hidalgo
or to activities related to the criminal gangs in this state.
Given these circumstances,
we uphold the principle of presumed innocence,
wherein an accused is deemed innocent until proven guilty
of committing a crime.
Therefore, this court rules in favor of Gavino Gaona
and orders his immediate release.
Silence in the courtroom. Silence, please!
