Senator, a few words please.
Hey, Senator! You're a child rapist!
To Senator Cummings, may he rest in peace.
I'm here because I'm going to be the father Charlie needs.
What?
Charlie Champ!
I have great news! Guess what!
We're going to be a family again.
What do you think?
I'm worried. Have you heard from Steve?
No. Why?
He isn't answering my text messages.
I'm afraid something might've happened to him.
Either way we have to find him.
You know where he lives or where his office is?
Did you find out why Alondra hit those girls?
It all started with a viral video.
You're not going to like what you're about to see.
Grab your crap. You're coming home with me.
Is that Ernesto's car? What's he doing here?
Where are you going?
He's taking my daughter! We have to stop him!
-He's kidnapping her! -There's nothing you can do.
He's her father.
I can kiss a woman or a dog if I so please!
-It's my life! -You are your mother's daughter!
What are you laughing at? What's so funny?
I find it funny that you're so alike
and that he's trying to reason with you, even when he'll fail.
And yes,
I found the psychologist to tame this shrew.
What's the matter with you?
What's the matter with you? Are you crazy?
Yeah, you should.
-To your room! -Let go!
-We'll talk in your room! -Let go!
Mr. Ernesto!
Let her go, Mr. Ernesto!
Mr. Ernesto...
-Mr. Ernesto... -Thanks for all your help.
Could we please talk like civilized people?
If you were civilized,
you wouldn't have dragged me out of Alejandra's.
Alright.
My methods aren't always the best,
-but I'm making an effort... -You should've done it sooner!
I'm trying to apologize here, but there's no pleasing you.
There's just no excuse.
You shouldn't have dragged me out!
Listen, you have to understand that I'm your father,
I'm emotionally invested in you,
I want to protect you and know what's going on with you,
but you won't let me get close to you.
You have to understand I was born in a different time.
I was very upset after I watched that video.
I felt an emptiness in my heart,
like I was having a heart attack.
Tell me, why the hell are you doing all this?
Are you trying to get back at me?
Are you trying to spite me or punish me?
Right, you think I kissed a girl to get back at you
and punish you
because everything I do revolves around you.
Someone has a huge ego.
Alright.
Alondra, please.
Maybe we should all go to therapy to talk it over...
You and Paula are the ones who need therapy
so you can stop being so sexist
and Paula can learn that being gay isn't a disease.
Oh, Alondra!
Hi, Alejandra.
-Let me talk to her. -Hold on.
Yes, we're talking right now and everything's fine.
Yes.
Don't worry.
We're finding the best way to sort this out.
See you soon.
Kisses. Bye.
I have to go out.
I'm going to talk about this
and some other things with Alejandra.
You have to stay here. You can't go out.
I can get out whenever I want.
No, you can't.
I gave instructions so you wouldn't be allowed outside.
So you're making me stay here against my will?
I don't care what you think.
And yes, you're staying here.
Margarita!
How did I know you were there? I must be psychic.
Look after her, please.
Yes, sir.
Honey...
Not now, Margarita. I want to be alone.
I saw you crying and I feel partly responsible
because I remind you of your mother.
Why?
I don't know.
I never met her and we weren't related.
I guess it's just... a coincidence.
You didn't miss much.
Do you also see her like everyone else does?
Why don't you tell me about her?
Maybe talking will help.
I don't even know you.
It's easier to talk about these things with a stranger,
someone who won't judge you for feeling the way you do.
Mom?
Damn that bastard!
So now he's a loving and understanding father?
-He dragged her out of here! -Please calm down!
Getting upset won't get you anywhere.
We've just enough time to get to the restaurant...
No, we should go to his house.
What for? So you can talk to him?
Of course not! It's too dangerous.
Until we learn whether he knows who you are or not,
you should pretend to be Alejandra Miranda.
Understood?
I feel bad for Raquel, but I love having you here.
Same here, kiddo.
I'd love it more
if I didn't find such chaos whenever I stopped by.
I hate seeing my beloved grandson suffer.
Oh, it's not that bad. It doesn't hurt as much anymore.
Are you still having nightmares?
Um... no. Not anymore.
Yeah, right.
Um... yeah, I believe you.
I don't!
Listen, Rodrigo.
Don't let your father or that witch hurt you again.
Is that clear?
No one made me do anything, Grandma.
I did it for Charlie.
If he needed more of my marrow,
I wouldn't think twice about doing it again.
-Max? -Hmm?
I have good news. Guess what?
What?
Dr. Pedraza got me an appointment
with the best psychiatrist around.
You know, because of my breakdown, remember?
Of course. That's great.
When's your appointment?
Today.
I was hoping you could look after Charlie for me.
Of course.
When will you be back?
I don't know.
I'll probably be there a while since it's my first time there.
Okay.
Take as long as you need.
You're so sweet.
I mean it.
Everything will be fine.
We'll work out all of our differences.
We were wrong to trust her.
What? So now it's my fault?
She fooled us both! She's been manipulating us!
Were you present during the procedure, yes or no?
Yes! Yes, I was there!
What'd you do to stop it?
This was Charlie's first real chance at survival!
And it was all thanks to Rodrigo's generosity!
-He's 10 years old! -And he has a huge heart!
Which you two took advantage of!
You even planned to take him from me.
Here stupid me thought you really loved us!
I do love you!
Get out!
Say you love me again and I'll bust your face!
Like you did to Jennifer? That's how you do things now?
Yes, and I don't regret it.
You ------- bastard!
No! Tomas!
Get back here!
Get out and don't ever come back here or to my house.
If you do,
I won't think twice about reporting you and Jennifer!
Get out!
Alejandra, I truly appreciate the support
and help you're offering Alondra.
No need to thank me. I'm happy to help.
How is she?
We had a cool chat.
I always say communication ensures a peaceful coexistence.
You sound like a politician.
You're absolutely right.
Sorry, it's just that... the same applies to family.
You have to hear everyone out,
so that you can come to an understanding
and a peaceful equilibrium.
I'm doing it again!
Sorry.
Thank you for being a supportive friend to her.
She needs that now more than ever during this critical time.
She's going to be fine, though. Everything will get better.
Richard, do you have signal? You getting the conversation?
Loud and clear.
We're set.
What's wrong with Alondra? Why did she run away?
I watched the video.
She wasn't expelled because of the video
but because of the fight
picked by the girls who uploaded it.
Alondra was bullied.
She was humiliated and put up on display.
They were very unfair to her.
Do you realize that?
Do you think she's gay?
Hello.
Can I get you something to drink?
Okay.
Yes.
