Dark Desire (2020) s01e14 Episode Script

1 Two truths.
One lie.
That's the name of our next game.
Each one of you will tell three alleged truths about yourselves, of which one will be a lie.
The object of the game is that the others have to guess which of these alleged statements is the false one.
Who wants to start? - Brenda! The birthday girl.
- No - Yes, come on.
- No.
I suggest Leonardo Solares, - he's great at lying.
- Really? Leonardo! DARK DESIRE Do you know what the Bible says about the red moon? The Bible says that when the moon is red it's because the end of the world is close.
"The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood before the great and notable day of the Lord.
" For God's sake, Esteban.
The world has ended 20 times since I can remember.
But this time it could be different.
There's no reason we should miss the chance to see that amazing moon together.
Esteban, I really need to talk to you.
Alma, what are you doing here? I asked you to stay home.
Have you lost your mind? Don't you see how risky it is for you to be here? Well, that's my problem.
Besides, I thought it was very important to come talk to you in person.
I'll leave you alone, okay? Thank you.
Leonardo did go to Brenda's house.
It was Zoe's.
She lost it a few weeks ago, and I found it today at home.
I told you.
Yes, but that doesn't make Leonardo a murderer.
You came all the way here just to tell me that this jacket doesn't prove anything? Are you okay, Zoe? Yes.
Why don't you go rest? It's very late.
No, thanks.
I'm fine.
You can't stay.
Visiting hours are over.
Can't I stay a little while longer? No.
Get some rest.
He'll be fine.
Two truths.
One lie.
Who's the next contestant? Brenda? First truth: Leonardo Solares is my secret lover.
Hey, my friend! You have good taste.
Cheers, my love! Second truth: Esteban Solares is my secret lover.
- But on Tuesdays.
- Third: They're both my lovers.
Leonardo Solares, a murderer.
Besides sleeping with my best friend, he also murdered her and then made it look like a suicide? And all that for what? To keep up the image of being a great judge? Of course, that's why he went crazy when he found out that we wanted to investigate everything about Brenda and when he found out that Darío was following his every step.
Yes, that's why he asked for the body to be exhumed and disposed of.
Of course, and that's why he wanted to get rid of any evidence related to Brenda's murder and to make Vallejo disappear.
Does everything make sense now? No.
Nothing makes sense because Leonardo is not what you say.
Then what the fuck do you need? You have the fucking jacket that he's wearing in the security camera videos.
But it's Leonardo.
It's Leonardo, my husband! He's the honest lawyer the idealist I fell in love with.
He's Zoe's dad.
He's the man who was there when she was born.
The man who taught her to read.
He's the man who just planned our anniversary party.
He couldn't have killed anyone, Esteban.
It hurts me as much as it hurts you.
But we have to admit that my brother could be a murderer.
We can't run the risk of keeping this here, García.
Can I really trust you? If you move, I'll kill you.
Calm down.
- Take whatever you want.
- Shut up, idiot.
I'm so sorry about everything that you've gone through, sweetie.
Don't talk to me like that, Esteban.
How the hell do you want me to say it then? Let's see, my dear Almita, last night, someone almost slit Chief García's throat in order to take Leonardo's jacket.
Is it clear now why you and Zoe are in danger? And how the hell is Leonardo going to order an attack on Ms.
García from the hospital? Through telepathy, or what? You don't understand how this works, Alma! It's a machine, and once you turn it on, you can't stop it.
What machine? What do you mean, Esteban? Look, Alma, I don't have time to argue about bullshit.
All I ask, is that you and Zoe don't leave the house.
Please.
A suspect was detained with the evidence bag.
Okay, let's go.
Good morning, sweetie.
Your uncle Esteban just called and said it's not smart for you to go out.
Does my uncle Esteban know that you fucked Darío? What? What did you say? The truth? Don't worry, I know what happened between you and Darío.
Zoe, don't open it.
Come in.
What the hell are you doing here? I asked him to come.
Zoe - Your damn lies are over, assholes.
- Zoe - Look, sweetheart - Don't touch me! Stand over there and listen to me.
I at least have the excuse of having been your What was it? Your innocent victim? Your fucking collateral damage? What's your excuse, Alma? I don't have any excuses.
No? You don't need it, you just exchanged your husband for a 25-year-old ass.
Stop it, Zoe Of course! I'm sure the two of you colluded to fuck my dad up.
No, sweetie, how can you say that? Zoe, what you're saying doesn't make sense.
I'm the only one to blame for this.
Can you shut up, asshole? Really, I'm fed up with listening to the poor drowned boy talking about his innocent suicidal father.
My whole fucking life you've made me feel inferior, Alma.
I've always lived under the shadow of the great lawyer.
Of the fabulous professor.
Of the amazing wife and mother! You're the fucking perfect woman, Alma! You're always 10,000 feet above everyone else.
Always.
Sweetie, I'm not a perfect woman, and I've never claimed to be one.
That's good, because you aren't.
You're not even this much better than Brenda.
At least she wasn't a fucking shitty hypocrite.
Do you know what's the only thing I regret about all this? It's not that I fucked this idiot.
It's having even thought about doubting my father.
Actually having thought he was the motherfucker in all this.
Got to hell, both of you.
POLICE Chief Patricia García, police inspector in charge.
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.
Give me a report.
- Did he have weapons? - Yes, he was armed.
- This is what we found in the van, Chief.
- Thanks.
We'll take care of this.
Why do you have those things, asshole? Huh? Who do you work for? Who do you work for, asshole, huh? Who do you work for? I just got orders.
Orders from who, asshole? - Orders from who? Huh? - Esteban! - Esteban! - Tell me right now who you work for - or I'll blow your head off.
- I just followed orders.
Orders from who? I'll count to three, asshole.
One two Solares.
A senior judge from Mexico City.
His name is Leonardo Solares.
The time has come.
Come with me.
What's the matter, Leonardo? You don't have the courage that my dad had? What are you waiting for, coward? Do it! Leonardo investigated you when you submitted your job application.
And we discovered that there are two Darío Guerras.
One is the son of an Antonio Guerra who has an auto repair shop in the neighborhood of Teopanzolco.
And the other one is the son of a lawyer who died in Paris in 2008 called Alberto Guerra.
Which one of the two are you, Darío? Who are you? Alberto Guerra was my uncle.
I never met him, but he was my dad's cousin.
He paid for my education.
Well, that uncle registered you as his son.
What about that story you told Zoe about the woman in the nursing home and the baby that drowned? I don't know.
I don't know what's the truth and what's a lie.
Why did you go to Brenda's house that Sunday after I left? How do you know I was there? Because of the surveillance cameras.
There's proof you were there.
I went looking for you.
To ask her about you.
To ask her about me? What? You had already investigated everything.
Yes, but I didn't know you were friends.
Let alone that I would find you there with her.
So you went there to meet with Brenda.
Yes.
I had been following her for weeks.
I was supposed to approach her.
But then I saw you.
Judge Solares' wife.
And that's where my plans went down the drain.
But, by then you had already registered for the seminar.
You knew perfectly well that I was Leonardo's wife.
I told you that I made lots of plans that went down the drain, Alma.
I was going after Brenda, and ended up making love to you.
I registered for that seminar to fuck your husband up and I ended up falling in love with you.
I wanted to understand why she had testified against my dad.
I swear that I didn't kill her.
Then why did you go there? What did you talk about? We talked about you, Alma.
I was hoping that you were still there.
So, she didn't tell you her name.
No, she didn't tell me.
But I imagine you can tell me.
And give me her phone number.
And she also didn't tell you if she was married? Or divorced, or single? Is she married? No, honey.
If my friend didn't tell you anything, I won't either.
Hey, actually, where have I seen you? I don't know.
Maybe we saw each other before at that nightclub.
I don't think so.
I'd remember such a handsome guy.
Well.
So? Will you give me her name and phone number? If I were you I wouldn't get in trouble.
And if what you say about the videos is true, you know I wasn't at her house for more than ten or fifteen minutes.
It's absurd that you think I killed her.
I love you, Alma.
Don't say that crap again.
It's the truth, I love you.
How dare you talk about love after what you did to me and my daughter? I can't sleep thinking of you.
Shut up.
Each step that I take each thing that I hear Shut up, damn it! When I was with Zoe I imagined you through her.
You're sick, bastard! Each fucking moment of my life reminds me of you.
Let me go, damn it! Let me go! Forgive me.
Forgive me! Forgive me, Alma.
Forgive me.
Forgive me.
I swear that I swear that I never meant to hurt you.
Or Zoe.
I love you.
- I love you! - Let me go.
- Let me go.
- Please, I love you.
Let me go, damn it! And get out of my house! SUPREME COUR Don't insist, Esteban.
The evidence stays here.
Do you have the surveillance videos where Leonardo is wearing that jacket? Yes.
Can you give them to me? Is this all? That's all that Vallejo gave me.
Thank you.
Hi.
What's up? I'm going to the hospital later to visit your dad.
Do you want to come? No.
What's with that sword? Katana.
Karina and I are taking lessons.
What? If what worries you is that I'll slit my wrists like Brenda, you can relax, Mom.
I won't do it.
I'm not going to die for the love of Darío, that idiot.
Not for him or for any other asshole.
Zoe I love you.
And even if you hate me right now I love you, I'm very proud of you, and I admire you very much for what you just said.
What? That I won't slit my wrists? No.
That you won't die for love.
Cool.
Edith? What's up, how's Leonardo? Dr.
Oropesa really needs to talk to you.
Can you come to the hospital? HEFESTO - INCOMING CALL What are you doing, dude? What the hell is going on with you, dude? Dr.
Solares We have the results of your husband's tests.
And, well, the levels of blood sodium are unusually high.
Most likely, this caused the seizures.
And what caused the sodium increase? We suspect that it could be kidney failure.
We'll have to do dialysis.
- Dialysis? - Yes.
But I need your authorization.
Of course.
What do I have to sign? Come with me, please.
And if we bite each other, the pain is sweet.
And if we drown in a brief and terrible simultaneous absorption of breath that instantaneous death is beautiful.
I won't die.
You chose a good moment to ignore me.
Precisely now, when I have so many questions.
Am I the son of a mechanic or a lawyer? Lucinda, please.
Who was that baby that drowned? Answer me, damn it.
Who am I? Who the hell am I? Tell me the truth.
Stop Stop bothering me, Solares, I already told you everything I knew.
Now do your part.
Solares? Lucinda.
Lucinda, answer me, please.
I had a really long conversation with Edith.
I mean, after all, she knows perfectly well all of Leonardo's movements.
Hold on, you didn't talk with Edith about our suspicions regarding Leonardo, right? Yes, why not? Because Leonardo fully trusts her.
Edith is the only person with whom you shouldn't have spoken.
Why? They just found the hit man who killed Vallejo.
- Do you know who hired him? - No.
Leonardo.
Do you know where Leonardo wanted to send all the evidence of Brenda's case? To a store that's a few blocks away from Edith's house.
- What? - Edith and Leonardo are accomplices.
Two truths, one lie.
Let's see, first truth.
Brenda's murderer is my brother Leonardo.
Truth! Truth! Forgive me, my love.
I forgive you anything.
Second truth: Brenda's murderer is my sister-in-law Alma.
Truth! Cheers! Third truth: I am Brenda's murderer.
MOM - INCOMING CALL Mom? Mom? Who's there? I saw you! I'm warning you, I'm armed.
No, Zoe! No.
