And this is Reinaldo's office.
[Mariana] Ah.
Decorated by me, obviously.
[Mariana chuckles]
Fit for a president.
No, for a king.
[chuckles]
-The king of the psychiatrists. -[Mariana chuckles]
Well, you know, Frida, that I'm not about power or titles.
I'm just a humble researcher, you see?
Who dreams of helping many people.
[scoffs] Why in Cuernavaca?
Well, to me, it seemed important that the Medusa Center was outside of Mexico.
Far away from the traffic, the smog, and all the noise.
And I, uh,
I wanted my patients to… to have to put in some effort to get here.
[Mariana] Hmm.
For them to feel…
isolated and simultaneously protected.
Is the idea that it's hard to get in here or that it's hard to get out?
-I'm surprised at the level of security. -[Reinaldo chuckles]
Guards, and electric fences, bars on the windows, two access controls.
Do all psychiatric hospitals feel like Alcatraz?
[Mariana chuckles]
Doctor. Excuse me.
Ah, this is Tonya.
Come in. I'd like to introduce you to my dearest friends.
César Lazcano and his wife Mariana.
-It's a pleasure. -Tonya Calderón.
My liaison to Dr. Alanís.
She's the one who receives and administers,
well, all of the information about this place.
A pleasure, Mr. Lazcano.
Likewise.
[dramatic music playing]
[car alarm beeps]
[dramatic music continues playing]
Mr. Lazcano.
[tense music playing]
[both breathing heavily]
[zipper unzips]
[Tonya moans softly]
You have my permission to call me César when we're alone.
Okay.
[music builds]
[music fades]
Tell me why you came to see me, César?
I'm not allowed to visit with an old friend?
[chuckles softly]
The same exact week that Sara's daughter goes on the run
and Nicandro dies.
[sighs]
I may have quit working for Reinaldo many years ago,
but as you can see,
I still keep up with everything to do with him and the case of Sara Guzmán.
So get to the point and tell me why you're here.
Why wasn't I told that Sara was still alive
and that she has a daughter?
[Tonya sighs]
[gun cocks]
Tell me where the fuck Sara is.
[exhales]
Doctor, the MRI is scheduled for 4:00 p.m.
Perfect.
Let's let the baby sleep until then.
-We need her nice and calm and… -[telephone ringing]
Hello?
[suspenseful music playing]
-What? -Doctor?
Sara got her hands on a weapon.
[music builds]

-Álex. -Hey!
Hey, so you're not dancing?
With who dumbass? My damn sister?
[Elroy] All right, enough. Stop, Chema.
Your mom says you're too drunk. That's it.
No way, man. Elroy, come back!
["Blue" continues playing]
♪ I have a blue house with a blue window ♪
[dramatic music playing]
[sighs]
Hey!
What the fuck, assholes? You have to hide.
You fucking idiots.
Okay, what we're going to do
is take the boat out to try Rodolfo's new parachute.
Make sure no one sees you guys, all right?
[Rodolfo] Nic!
And, uh, tell my dad that I'll call him tonight. Thanks.
What the hell? Who were those dudes?
Uh, just some bullshit.
My papa sent them to see how I was.
Just because I haven't called him for two days.
Yo, what's up with the parachute?
I told Chema that he should have Elroy prep the boat.
Should we go?
I have to use the bathroom.
Oh yeah. Cool, cool.
[suspenseful music playing]
Ch! Ch! Ch! Ch!
Come here.
Yo, be careful, they could see you. No one can know you're here.
Wait a sec.
Come on.
Where is Sara?
Don't fuck around. You lost her?
Isn't my papa fucking paying you to follow her everywhere she goes?
She got away. I was distracted.
Rodolfo's mama took her for a walk.
-Mrs. Mariana? -Mm-hmm.
They went over there. I think they're climbing the hill.
Look, I'm only doing this because you're papa is paying.
For the cash.
So that my sister can live a little better.
But you?
Why the fuck are you doing this, I wonder?
You'll start showing pretty soon.
But we don't have to hide it.
That's why I really think you should do all the things you want.
And have fun before you start growing.
[Mariana chuckles]
You want to know a secret?
When I was expecting my first son,
I went up the volcano in Toluca.
[Mariana chuckles]
Yes, I did make it up to the top. I just wanted an adventure.
And I can say, I've never been so proud of myself.
Try to do everything you won't be able to do later.
Like scuba diving.
And ride Rodolfo's new parachute for the boat.
Do everything while you still have the freedom.
-[Álex] Sara! -It's breaking!
[screams]
[indistinct shouting]
[panting]
[grunts]
I'm sorry. It's nothing personal, a simple precaution.
I will not allow you to escape from here ever again.
-[grunting] -You look exactly like your mother.
[breathing heavily]
Where is she?
You never seemed interested in her before all this.
I saw photos.
And saw my uncle.
Where is my mother? [grunts]
Thanks to Sara, we've been able to create a pioneering medication.
It's unique in its class.
The first.
Where is she?
What did you do to my mother?
Would you mind explaining what is all this?
-There's nothing to explain. -Oh no?
The guns and ammo? The bag?
[zipper zips]
It's obvious after everything that's happened, Elisa.
Álex wants to defend himself.
All that I want
is to rescue my niece and find Sara. That's what they're for.
Álex.
Álex, try to understand. You're not thinking straight.
-I don't like seeing you like this. -Yeah? Like what?
Like this. The way you are.
I'm ready to do whatever it takes to find my sister and the truth.
So what now?
You're gonna go over there and shoot the place up?
Kill everyone? What Álex?
I've already lost everything.
Really?
[scoffs]
So I'm nothing?
And apparently, I'm not important enough to keep you
from being a crazy-ass murderer and ending all of this shit, right?
[knocks on door]
Álex, you have to come with me.
What the fuck are you doing here?
How did you know where I was?
I called him, bro.
If you want to find Sara, you have to come with me.
[dramatic music playing]
[brakes screech]
[keys jangle]
-[key clicks in lock] -What is this place?
Can you guys wait here?
I need to go in there, Papa.
[electric whirring]
You have to fly her to Mexico City. She won't survive here.
All right.
Get a helicopter, the fastest one available.
We'll pay for everything.
Make sure you prepare the intensive care unit.
Call Dr. Alanís, so he's up to date on it all.
And he can, uh, support us if necessary.
But the most important thing is to activate the protocol
to confront the family.
[helicopter powering on]
[somber music playing]
How's my sister?
-How's Sara? -In critical condition.
-I need you to stay here. -I want to see her. I want to see Sara--
[doctor] Not possible. Non-authorized people can't come in.
-Let go of me! -Álex!
-Let go of me! -Hey, relax. Calm down.
[Álex] Motherfucker!
[Álex grunts]
[door slams]
[Reinaldo] We must do everything possible to avoid any questions about the body.
And the mother can give her a funeral.
The official story is that Sara died because of the fall from the parachute.
The accident caused by Marifer.
I'll take care of the rest.
PSYCHIATRIC UNIT
[doctor] I'm sorry. There was nothing we could do.
-Unfortunately, she didn't make it. -Where's my sister? I want to see her!
-[doctor] We did everything we could. -[José] Álex, hey.
-Álex, Álex. -[Álex sobbing]
[sighs]
[sirens wailing in the distance]
[Marifer] Nicandro. Nicandro.
Lower your fucking voice.
You want everyone to know you're in Valle?
What happened to Sara? Where is she?
They took her away.
No one will ever see her again.
Go to Mexico.
Help her mom any way you can.
From now on, your friend is no more, understood?
Sara died today.
[Marifer breathing nervously]
[whimpering]
Sara!

[indistinct whispering continues]
[both] …at the hour of our death.
Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee…
[whimpering]
Why do this to yourself?
[whimpering]
You're suffering.
Anyone who does what I do must suffer.
I want to be saved, cured, please.
Who said that to you?
Oh please, I have to forget.
You're confusing me.
I want to be cured.
I don't want to suffer anymore.
I don't want…
Please leave me alone.
Leave me alone!
Leave me alone.
[Daniela] Chema.
-Please leave! -[Daniela] Chema.
Why are you here?
Get out of here.
Run away.
You were born to be free.
Daniela.
What are you doing here?
This has barely begun.
And it gets much worse.
You don't know the pain it brings me
to see my own daughter,
the child that I gave birth to and raised,
become twisted in this way.
I can't take it.
Mariana, no.
-It can't be. -[Álex] Chema.
Come on, your burger must be ready.
[suspenseful music playing]
[César] Tonya Calderón.
Right hand to Reinaldo for over 20 years,
and his liaison to Dr. Alanís.
She received the numbers of all the information at the Medusa Center.
If there's anyone who knows where Sara is, it's her.
Let me speak with her.
Take Elisa, Rodolfo.
Are you crazy, Papa?
You just left her here?
All this time? Did… did you beat her?
Something's wrong with you.
-Álex knows what he's doing. -Enough!
-Come on. -Stop it.
-I want to go. -[Elisa scoffs]
Go on.
[Elisa scoffs]
Son of a bitch.
We need to talk about my money.
[Álex sighs]
You only care about your stupid cash, right?
That's why you did this, you asshole.
Huh?
I wasn't aware my other daughter was still alive.
I also went to find her.
Do what you have to do.
But we need to talk about my money.
Elisa, where are you going?
What fucking world are you living in, huh?
Why do men always think they can fix things in this way?
With bullets and with violence.
And you?
What the fuck?
Did you enjoy it? Mistreating these women.
And now what? You're abducting and gagging them?
-Hey, please calm down. -I don't wanna calm down. Don't touch me!
It feels like all of you have forgotten what I had to live through in my life!
I don't know you, Rodolfo.
And I don't recognize Álex.
And then, Papa, seriously?
Elisa, listen to me.
I don't know about you, but I've decided
I'm gonna do what I want. And you know why?
Because I wanna be the owner of my life. It's what I deserve.
To own my life.
We deserve to be happy.
That's why we can't care about any of this.
That's the greatest difference between us.
For me, it's important to care about this.
Do you understand me?
You should.
Elisa.
I've always been proud of you, whether you believe it or not.
Always.
[scoffs]
And me?
[door closes]
You son of a bitch.
[door slams]
I'm sorry, Alanís, but with Álex, there are too many questions.
I need to close a few mouths.
Nothing personal.
[Frida] Reinaldo?
[Frida breathing heavily]
I want to know what you did to my son.
You are responsible for the murder of Nicandro.
You took both of my children.
[huffs]
The two people I loved most.
I thought I was the one that you loved most.
He told me everything.
That Nicandro showed up armed
and attacked them.
Because?
You forced it.
You forced him to. What have you become?
[dramatic music playing]
[breathing heavily]
I was the one who you loved the most.
[muffled screaming]
[straining]
I was.
[music builds]
[music ends abruptly]
[Álex sighs]
[sighs]
[gasps]
Tonya, where the fuck is my little sister?
Well, finally, Álex.
You don't know me,
but I know you very well.
I got to know you intimately
18 years ago.
I did.
You and your sister.
And your mother.
I need to know if Sara is still living or if she's dead.
Your mother.
Poor woman.
She was abused, and her daughter was very sick.
And her son, well,
he was more worried about his millionaire friends
than his own family.
What was your plan?
Advancement?
Thanks to the Lazcanos.
You need to answer my question.
You know, your sister, she had many dreams.
She told me several times about her desire to be a teacher.
To teach little kids how to read and to write.
What?
Didn't know about that either?
It seems like you didn't really know her at all, Álex. Not one bit.
Do you know what kept her from reaching all of her goals?
Her own mind.
Those voices in her damn head.
They wouldn't leave her alone, Álex.
And the only one capable of reaching her at that moment
was Reinaldo, no one else.
Not anyone else, Álex.
So where the fuck are they keeping my sister, God dammit?
Do you really want to know?
[whimpering]
[breathing heavily]
It won't open.
It's locked.
But why?
Open it!
[voice breaking] I want to see my daughter one last time. Open it, please!
The car is here.
[doctor 1 sighs]
What are you doing?
[sobbing] No, wait.
Just wait. where are you taking her?
No, wait, please!
I want to see my daughter one last time. Please don't take her!
[alarm buzzing]
Let's go.
[heart monitor beeping]
[Reinaldo] Creating a new medication is no easy task.
From the beginning of the research
to the point it's made available to the patients
can take 12 to 15 years.
Or more.
If what you're looking for is a drug
capable of curing homosexuality
and schizophrenia.
But me, I always think much bigger than that.
It's why I'm here today in front of you all now.
Open your mouth.
Tongue to the right.
Turn around.
Take off your boxers and hands up on the wall.
Spread your legs.
Oh no, Sara!
[Marifer] Lucía.
Sara. No!
Lucía, Lucía…
Sara! [crying]
[crying continues]
Come on, Lucía, please, come on.
Oh, my girl!
[music building]
[breathing heavily]
Where am I?
[groans]
[Tonya] In the best place for you to recuperate.
Just relax, Sara.
Everything is under control.
Your baby is healthy and strong.
I… I want to see Álex.
Where is Álex?
Look.
You need some time, okay?
And you'll learn all that became of your family.
But now,
the only thing that matters is that you're well and recovering, okay?
Take it easy.
My mother will be worried.
Help me. I want to see her.
No, no, no, don't leave me, please.
I don't want to be alone. Don't go.
Please just come back!
Thanks to the discovery of a patient who was very special,
we have been able to cut out various steps of the process.
So let's meet
Sara Guzmán.
After subjecting her to a multitude of tests,
we've managed to identify the best route for continuing the research.
Little Sara was the light at the end of the tunnel.
Spread more.
I said, "Spread 'em!"
[grunts]
[Reinaldo] Sara Guzmán's case allowed us
to experiment directly with the same patient.
[straining]
I need help!
[screaming] Ah! Ah!
[officer] Turn around.
Turn around, now!
[whimpering]
Someone help! Help!
-[Sara whimpering] -[Álex yelling]
Thanks to Sara Guzmán,
the very first medication
capable of curing homosexuality and schizophrenia
is now in phase one.
And now, we are administering it to a group of volunteers and patients.
And it's only a matter of time
before it will be approved by the authorities.
Thanks to Sara Guzmán,
we've made history.
Thanks to Sara's generosity,
we have completely changed the course of psychiatry.
[applauding]
[bangs on door]
I'm coming.
What… what are you doing here?
They let out Álex Guzmán. He's free.
They reduced his sentence for good behavior.
The bastard even behaved in prison.
The first thing he's going to do is find out what happened to Sara.
What can I do?
Pack your bag.
You're coming with me to Mexico.
[grunts]
I need you to keep Álex off of my back.
Find a culprit.
Get someone to serve as a scapegoat. Like that little whore friend of Sara's.
-Marifer? -Yes, did you stay in touch with her?
No, I… I mean, uh…
Find her immediately.
Trick her.
Use her to divert the attention away from us both.
You have no idea the chaos that Álex caused in the casino.
He's coming with everything, and he has nothing left to lose.
You have to be one step ahead of him.
If Álex finds out what we've done,
then you're going to end up in prison.
-Understand? -Okay.
Get moving!
All right.
[tense music playing]
[music ends abruptly]
[dramatic music playing]
[Marifer] Seriously, Clara? I haven't been here in fucking forever.
[sighs] And I feel really guilty.
The girl is very lonely and needs company once in a while.
Well, it's the least I could do, am I right?
[indistinct chatter]
I have to go, okay?
I'll call you when I get back to the city.
[muffled children's song playing]
[cell phone ringing]
Hello?
Yeah, who's speaking?
Hey, what's up? It's Álex Guzmán.
I know that this call must seem weird to you.
Especially because, uh,
well, we haven't talked in a really long time, but, uh…
we need to see each other.
You have something that I need, and, uh…
Um, can I call you back in… Call you back in a while?
All right. No, no, no, no. I'll… I'll call you.
Yeah, sure.
Okay, thanks.
All right, bye.
What does he want then?
[Marifer] I don't know.
We're gonna meet at a café,
but I thought it was important that you know about it.
And how is it going as Diana the Huntress?
Fine.
He doesn't suspect that I'm her.
And your idea was very useful in finding out what Álex thinks
and what his next steps are.
That's how I like it.
Looks like it was worth it, those classes on the computer I paid for.
Keep feeding him info and fake it.
Figure out what he wants.
Not a word about Sara or her daughter.
Sure, don't worry about it.
I murdered Sara.
I cut the cords on the parachute.
No one will know the truth.
[call dialing]
Nicandro,
Álex has finally reached out to Marifer.
This is more serious than I imagined.
The time has come to blame
Marifer.
[dramatic music playing]
[Nicandro] Closer.
Yeah.
Marifer?
You know what that means, right?
Marifer was in Valle that day that my sister died.
Man, what the fuck is she hiding from?
Can I please ask one last favor?
Can I see her room?
I just need to get some closure, you know?
And Sara is part of the story.
Five minutes.
[dramatic music playing]
[Nicandro] Papa,
everything's identical, same as it was 18 years ago.
I can't find the fucking diary.
And don't worry, nobody knows about Sara.
We're definitely home free now.
You're right, Álex.
It's finally time for me to explain what happened.
And I'm going to tell you.
I'll tell you where to find Sara.
