PROJECT MEDUSA CASE 001 - SARA GUZMÁN
ATTENDING PHYSICIAN: DR. ALANÍS
I want you to tell me about yourself, Sara.
My…
My name is Sara Guzmán.
When will I get out of here?
Who do you live with?
With my mom
and my brother.
What can you tell me about them?
They're my family.
A normal family.
And what is a normal family, Sara?
A mom.
Children.
We don't need anyone else.
Do you trust them?
Do you trust your family?
Yes.
A lot.
If you had to choose a single person in the world,
who would it be?
My brother, Álex.
He takes care of me.
He protects me.
I love him a lot.
Who else do you love?
My mom.
When's my mom coming to see me?
What hurts the most?
Being born…
Being born this way.
Like this.
With…
With all this.
When will I get out of here?
What do you want to do when you finish your treatment?
Do you have
any particular dreams?
I want to go far away.
Away from here.
As far as I can.
Do you want a family of your own?
Yes.
I want to have a happy family.
I want to be happy.
A NETFLIX SERIES
Now you know the truth.
Now you know what happened to Sara.
Say something.
What's going through your head?
No, Álex, no!
Untie me, please. Don't leave me here.
Help me, please.
Álex.
Please, help me, Álex.
Álex, help me!
Álex!
Move, asshole!
We're not moving.
What happened to that woman?
I'm talking to you, damn it.
Álex, did she tell you where Sara is?
-Álex! -Álex!
Álex!
I'm hungry.
Does it arouse you?
Does this pleasure you?
-I can't hear you. -No.
-I can't hear you! -No!
It doesn't pleasure me!
No!
I don't like men anymore!
I don't like them!
Not anymore!
Floor it, Rodolfo, we can't lose him.
Don't worry, we won't lose him.
Doctor.
Sara found a weapon.
Don't misunderstand, José María.
I love people
like you and my daughter Daniela.
I don't reject you.
I want nothing but the best for you.
But you have to understand that being the way you are
is a negative feeling
caused by an event,
a trauma in your childhood.
And that
must be plucked at the roots.
And I also need you to understand
the immense pain you cause your family by being what you are.
You won't spend
the rest of your days like this.
Alone, bitter.
Living in hell
because of your bad choices.
José María, trust in me.
I know how to help you.
Álex is the only one who can help me.
Only Álex.
It is time to straighten out what's been twisted.
You will make love for the first time today.
Like a real man.
What is he doing?
I have no idea,
but we have to trust him. Álex knows what he's doing.
Álex!
What are you doing?
What the fuck are you doing here?
-Get out of here. -No, Álex.
-No way. -Just leave!
We're staying with you.
Fucking hell.
Fuck…
Close the door.
All right, assholes!
Everyone on the ground! Nobody move!
Put the gun down, man! Put it down!
On the floor!
Come here!
Is Sara here?
Is that why you came here?
It's time for you to finally know the truth.
I'll tell you where Sara is.
Talk.
Are you sure you want to know?
Talk!
Sara…
Sara!
Rodolfo, take him over there.
Over there! Let's go!
-Elisa, get the gun. -Yes.
Back up more.
Keep going back.
Get down.
Tie them up.
-Hands behind your back. -Rodolfo.
-Your hands. -Tie them all.
I'm gonna ask you a simple question.
And you'll answer if you want to get back home.
Hands.
Where is Reinaldo?
All right, you.
Where the fuck is Reinaldo?
Where?
Nobody gets out.
-Stay here. -Álex.
I want to find Sara too.
Stay here.
Take care of Elisa.
Nobody gets out, okay?
Listen to me.
You're not alone in this.
I'll help you, okay?
Hands. Give me them.
I'm sorry.
Don't move.
Rodolfo.
-Dad's outside. -I'll go get him.
Nobody move.
What's happening?
What the fuck?
Sara!
What happened?
Sara, what did you do? What happened?
-She was your best friend, motherfucker! -She was my sister!
Marifer.
Why are you fucking up your life?
And after all I had to go through when I was 18.
You're too old for this bullshit.
Don't let me down, Chema.
This isn't you.
You were always brave, man.
Get up.
I just want to be happy.
You are happy.
I was always proud of you.
I always admired your courage.
You're unique, Chema.
Why change that now?
You're a man now.
Time has been merciless to us all.
If you kill me, you'll never know
what happened to Sara.
Here's the whole truth.
Drop the gun, and I'll give you the evidence.
-Where's Lucía, asshole? -Álex.
Álex.
Sara, what did you do?
The only thing you need
is me.
And you'll never have me.
Chema, what the fuck are you doing here?
I was stupid.
It was a mistake. I just wanted to stop suffering.
Help me.
Daniela.
Help me get out of here.
Daniela, let's go!
It's good you came.
-Thank you. -You have to get out of here.
Elisa and Rodolfo are in the lobby. Go now.
They came to see me?
Yeah, and you'll leave with them.
-Get going! -No!
I'm not leaving you alone.
-I'll stay here with you. -I need to find Lucía.
-Do you know where she is? -No, I don't know. She's not in her room.
I have no idea.
Chema, I need you to go, man.
-Go to the lobby. -No way.
I'm not gonna make the same mistake again, Álex.
I won't leave you alone again. I'm staying with you.
Listen to me.
I need you to get Elisa out of here. You can help me that way.
Please.
Go.
-Get going. -Let's go.
Chema. Go, man.
Come on.
This isn't good, Rodolfo.
The guards that Álex wounded outside are moving.
Why is he taking so long?
We can't do anything. We have to wait here.
It'll be okay.
Think about it.
If we stay here wasting time,
we'll end up in jail.
Nobody's going to jail while I'm alive.
Sara.
Lucía.
Lucía, it's okay.
What is it? Are you okay?
-I'll go get Álex. -Rodolfo.
Stay with them. I'll go.
Chema? Are you okay?
What are you doing here?
Are you okay? Do you want to sit down?
He thought that he could change by committing himself.
That he'd stop being gay.
Your homophobia fucked up your son's life too.
He was tortured for days.
They almost killed him.
But what do you care?
All he wanted was to become a man and feel proud of it.
It's over. Are you okay?
If there's anyone to blame for me liking men,
it's you and Mom.
Why don't you commit yourself here?
We didn't choose to be born this way.
I wanted to be free, and I couldn't.
They didn't let me.
Álex!
I know you're in there, asshole!
Come out!
Álex!
You're guilty too.
You should've protected your brother.
There's nothing to cure here.
Álex.
Álex, I know you have a lot of questions. Plenty.
But if you kill me,
there will be no one to tell you where Sara is.
-No one. -I know.
I know the whole truth.
Do you really want to know?
Talk!
Sara is dead.
Sara!
She couldn't take the treatment.
She never recovered after her trepanation.
She chose suicide
over being Reinaldo's lab rat.
The only thing you need is me.
But you'll never have me.
No.
No. Sara.
Sara, what have you done? No.
Wait.
Why did you…?
You've lost what you wanted the most.
No!
I need you for the medication.
Don't die. No.
Help… Help me!
No, don't go.
And I tried to save her.
You don't know how valuable your sister was to me.
Sara!
And is that why you cracked her head open?
Is that why you tortured her
and took her daughter away at birth, asshole?
Is that why you locked her up here
and made us all think she was dead?
-It was for the sake of science. -Science, my ass.
Your sister…
Sara made a great contribution
to science.
That's why I did what I had to.
Don't!
Don't do it. Please.
If you push that button,
you'll go back to jail.
I spent 18 years in jail for a crime I didn't commit.
You think I give a shit
about going back in for avenging my sister's death?
I don't give a fuck.
You planned all of this, you son of a bitch.
César was just your puppet.
You screwed up my life.
Mine and so many others.
And now you're going to hell, you son of a bitch.
Get out before the police get here.
What bank account do you want your money in?
Keep it.
I always knew you'd steal my money.
It was the only way to get me back in Mexico.
I also knew my money would be safe with you.
And that through you, it'd reach my children.
Keep it.
And share it with them.
It's my last wish.
I want to leave.
I have nothing more to do here.
Okay, wait.
We have to wait for Álex. He'll tell us what to do.
He's not coming. He's busy with my dad.
Calm down.
No. Don't touch me!
Rodolfo!
Let go of me! Rodolfo!
Let go of me!
Let me go!
Rodolfo!
No!
Call a doctor! Don't just stand there!
Help me!
Rodolfo!
Don't die, Rodolfo, please.
-Rodolfo. -Please.
Sara…
Rodolfo.
Are you willing to confirm your testimony, Mr. Lazcano?
I'm solely responsible for all of this. There's nothing to hide.
I murdered Reinaldo.
And I was the one
who murdered and buried Abel Martínez 18 years ago.
Take him away.
Wait.
Based on the evidence
and for the crimes of human trafficking,
tax fraud,
swindling, and the falsification of documents,
as well as the first-degree murders of Abel Martínez Osorio
and Reinaldo Gómez de la Cortina,
this court sentences César Lazcano
to a total of 40 years of imprisonment.
What's wrong with Dad?
I don't recognize him.
It's like he doesn't care anymore.
He's really gonna take the blame for everything?
He's really gonna go to jail?
Álex.
It's time to say goodbye, Álex.
I was proud of you all my life.
Don't let me down now.
Make my daughter happy.
Lights!
Two months.
We found it too late.
Fucking pancreatic cancer.
That bastard hid well. It's like me that way.
Slippery, stubborn, unexpected.
I'm sorry, Mr. Lazcano.
There's not much we can do.
You're wrong, Doctor.
I've always preferred to fight.
I've got a fortune,
and I'll spend it to buy my life.
-But there's nothing-- -Thank you, Doctor.
Believe it or not, I've always been proud of you.
Yeah.
What about me?
Son of a bitch.
You know what he's capable of.
We can try another procedure.
I'm willing to do whatever it takes.
César,
there's no money that can help you.
There's nothing left to do.
Where are you going?
Don't go without me.
Where are you going?
You can't go.
You can't leave me. You can't go without me.
Sister.
When you're done in the garden, go clean the bathrooms.
How do you feel?
I'm all right.
You did the right thing, Álex.
The police needed to know where Reinaldo buried his patients.
These people needed a proper burial,
not what that bastard gave them.
And now Sara will rest with her mom.
Like you always wanted.
Thank you.
You know you're not alone, right?
I do now.
Lucía.
