Juan David: Hey!
- Sir, you were taking pictures of us.
- No, ma'am, I don't know what you're talking about.
- I don't like that guy.
He looks at me in the weirdest way.
And his attitude...
I don't know, I don't trust him.
- I don't know how it happened, sir.
I don't know how he ran away.
We lock all the doors here at night
and only the watchman has the key.
- The kid didn't just vanish into thin air.
He had to have escaped somehow.
- We know who the Reyes brothers are.
They have secrets.
For one reason or another, they always keep things from us.
That's who they are.
- Do you think Demetrio could replace Franco?
- Never.
Franco is irreplaceable.
- Knocking it down? On whose authority?
This isn't your home, Demetrio.
- I know it isn't, but your mom Sarita gave me permission.
- But you don't have mine or my sister's,
and we own this place too.
This is my father's study. It's not to be touched.
- I know somebody who would send photographers
to out of the way places.
- Who?
- My father.
[¶¶¶]
- After careful study and evaluation
of the testimony of the people implicated in the case,
we have concluded
that we cannot detain Ms. Romina Clemente any longer.
- What do you mean? What are you saying?
- They're going to let her go.
- Given the lack of evidence that would keep her here,
I have no choice.
- Lack of evidence?
Doesn't my statement mean anything?
- Of course it does, Mrs. Norma.
We considered it and evaluated it
and searched for the alleged weapon, but it was never found.
Furthermore, nobody saw Ms. Romina Clemente
shoot at your mother.
It's just a theory.
- The attack on Berta, who works for my client Mr. Reyes,
was real, chief.
It's no theory.
- Uh-huh, that's right. So, what know?
- She was violently attacked by that woman.
She tried to strangle her, but that's not all.
She threw her off the terrace of Mr. Reyes' home.
- Angie, let Berta have another look
at the pictures of the suspects.
- Ms. Berta, can you identify which of these women
was your assailant?
- I'm not sure.
I don't know.
I can't recall her face.
She was in a hood and wearing strange clothes.
- Now do you understand, sir?
If Ms. Berta cannot identify her attacker,
there's no case.
- Chief, all I care about is what'll happen
to my son Duvan.
- Mr. Reyes,you have to sort out your paternity issues
and prove your blood ties.
In the meantime, the boy will remain with his mother.
- What?
Sir, you can't leave a child with a woman like that.
She's dangerous.
She attacked my sister and her employees.
We have witnesses and evidence...
- Ms. Norma, your sister Jimena dropped the charges
against Romina Clemente.
- Jimena did what?
I can't believe this. What a waste of time.
- Yeah, bro.
Things don't always work out how we'd like,
but you can't lose hope.
- Of course not.
We may have lost this battle,
but we're going to win the war.
- Brother... be smart about how you deploy your pieces.
You can't let your impulses control you.
Don't fall for that witch's tricks again.
- Believe me, Juan, things will be different this time.
- What you're reading must be very interesting.
- Some documents belonging to Oscar's brother.
That's why I wanted to give him all this personally.
- He just called and talked to Orlando.
He said he was at the police station
and was going to be a while.
- Let's do something.
I'm entrusting this to you.
Please deliver it to Oscar personally.
Only Oscar.
- Of course, Mrs. Jimena.
- Thank you.
- When will you be working together again?
- We are working together.
I come in the morning, he's here in the afternoon.
Now that we're separated, that's how we do it.
Have a nice day.
- Bye, Ms. Jimena. - Bye.
- Yes, Santiago, I got them this afternoon.
Good work.
Yes, the pictures are great.
Nice and clear.
But the important thing is how they felt
when they discovered they were being photographed.
Especially my daughter.
According to what you've said, you accomplished it.
Have your phone handy.
I'll probably need you again.
- Ma'am.
Ms. Muriel just arrived. She's in her room.
- Thank you, Blanca. Give me some privacy.
- Excuse me.
[¶¶¶]
[Knock on door]
- Back to your old habits, Muriel?
You disappear again without telling me
and refuse to answer your phone.
- We agreed that you wouldn't try to control me.
- It's not about that.
- Then?
I'm free to see Juan David when and where I want.
Didn't we agree to that?
- It's not about me, it's about your father.
You know he doesn't like you spending the night out.
Did you know he's watching us again?
- If he has something to tell me he can do it himself.
- You know that his reproaches go beyond the norm.
His methods are as aggressive and dangerous
as they were last time.
Please, Muriel, don't expose yourself and don't expose me!
- You think he's watching us again?
- Of course he is! He always does.
Worst of all, he uses dangerous people unafraid of anything.
For example, we've got one here that watches us day and night
and won't leave us alone.
What do you want?
- Lower your tone. I come in peace.
I brought this. It was delivered for you.
- Wait.
To be continued.
- Mrs. Jimena left these documents.
She asked me to deliver them to you personally.
- Leave them right there. I'll go through them tomorrow.
I have a lot of work right now.
- They're not business-related. They're personal.
She emphasized that you should look through them.
- Then I'll check them out tonight.
Now go home and get some rest.
And thank you.
[¶¶¶]
- Who sent this?
- I have no idea. It was just dropped off.
- Gunter, listen up.
Right now it could be unwise and very dangerous
to accept suspicious packages such as this.
This has all the makings of one.
- You think it's a bomb?
- Don't be an idiot.
It could be something worse,
and I don't want to be alone when I open it,
so you're coming with me.
[sighs]
[¶¶¶]
- What is it? What did you receive?
Simply splendid.
- It's the necklace I gave back to Samuel
that he made me wear on special occasions.
- Berta.
- Mr. Oscar, how did it go?
- Fine, but I just received a last-minute call
from the police chief.
We're meeting with Romina tomorrow at the mill house.
I'm taking my lawyer just in case.
- Does this woman plan on returning there to live?
- It appears so.
She refuses to live anywhere else.
Don't you worry, though. We won't let her get close.
We'll be ready so that she can't hurt you again, okay?
- Don't worry, sir. It won't happen again.
I can promise you that.
- Yeah.
- Are you hungry?
- No, not right now.
I'm going to look through some documents.
- Excuse me.
[¶¶¶]
- Excuse me, Mr. Oscar, but it's very late.
May I serve you dinner?
- Yes, I'll be right there.
- Excuse me.
- Juan, listen carefully.
I have something urgent to tell you.
Let's meet tomorrow after the meeting I have
at the mill house.
Trust me, it's urgent.
[¶¶¶]
- What did you have to tell me that was so urgent?
- It has to somewhere we won't be interrupted.
And yes, Juan, it's something we've avoided discussing
for a long time,
but the time has come.
- Alright. Let's go.
- Thank you.
This is fine, thanks.
- Look, Sarita.
I'm not an aggressive individual
and I don't usually fix my problems with violence.
But sometimes one must demand respect.
And that Demetrio Jurado or whatever his name is
isn't as harmless as he makes himself out to be.
- He's an idiot.
Whenever he opens his mouth, he's trying to offend somebody.
- But, boys, we don't know him.
- Sorry, but you're the one that doesn't know him.
Or, I thought you did thanks to Gaby.
I don't get it. What made you change your mind?
- He's right, Sara. He's not a good person.
That guy is a total hypocrite.
- I'm sorry to interrupt, but I can't believe
you haven't realized how homophobic he is.
- No, Andres, I haven't seen him behave that way.
He hasn't shown me that side.
- He did to me when I demanded answers for that wall
he's knocking down in the house.
- Is that what's troubling you and Gaby?
That I'm remodeling the hacienda?
- It goes way beyond that.
I'm telling you that he messed with me, Mom.
- No, Andres, you're just annoyed that it's Demetrio
doing the remodeling.
- Yeah, that too.
What kind of remodeling is that?
Destroying Dad's project?
You want to eliminate every last trace of him?
You call that remodeling?
- Where were these found?
- Somewhere in Franco and Sara's house.
- Does anyone else know about these papers?
Did you talk to Jimena?
- No, I didn't dare.
With the problems I'm having with Romina and my son,
I didn't think of it.
- Don't worry. I get it.
- What are we going to do, Juan?
- We have to take action immediately to help Franco.
There's no time to waste.
- What do you propose?
- Let's meet with the lawyers and discuss the case.
If we need to travel, we'll travel.
- And go find him?
- For that bum...
for that bum we'd go to the ends of the earth.
This is the perfect opportunity to help him.
