Say who you are!
-Tell me who the fuck you are!
-Your slut!
"THE MEETING OF TWO PERSONALITIES
IS LIKE TWO CHEMICALS INTERACTING."
"IF THERE'S A REACTION,
THEY'RE TRANSFORMED." CARL JUNG
Your wife is like a cockroach.
I mean, who survives an explosion?
Bárbara doesn't remember anything.
Only what suits her.
They did a bunch of tests.
I've tested her.
It's true.
The sea should have taken her.
Whatever. She's different now.
Either because
she doesn't remember anything or…
because having a near-death experience
changed her.
Don't be stupid, Esteban.
Snakes can shed their skin,
but their poison doesn't change.
Be careful.
In case you don't remember,
you can count on us
as part of the family
and as part of the board of Medusa.
We are "Team Barbie."
Exactly.
Well, what's your plan?
For now, to fully recover.
And the presidency?
Yes, the presidency of Medusa.
What are we doing?
My brother is the CEO now.
Won't you take the position back?
Remember you're "Poisonous Barbie."
I lost my memory, not you.
Have you forgotten
I almost died before taking up the post?
I can't take back what I never had.
I've arrived with guests.
I brought your favorite food.
-Girls!
-Jackie.
Let's serve the food.
We're hungry.
-You didn't say you were coming.
-My love.
Úrsula.
-It's nice to see you.
-Likewise.
I brought you a little something.
We didn't tell you we were coming,
but we couldn't wait to see you.
We can leave.
-No, don't worry. You are welcome.
-Thanks.
Vivi.
Won't you give me a kiss?
Come here.
You look so pretty.
-This is wonderful!
-I'm glad you're okay.
The Hidalgo family
will only die of old age.
Why are you here?
Well, old and loaded, right?
That's right!
Speaking of which, is my uncle coming?
He hasn't been feeling well
the last few days.
Cristian apologizes for not coming.
He's got this whole CEO thing going on.
Were you offered drinks?
No!
Whiskey? Let's eat outside.
-Outside?
-Let's go outside.
-The breeze is wonderful.
-Thank you.
Let's go, please.
Go ahead.
Thank you. Go ahead.
WHAT'S UP, HONEY? WHEN CAN WE MEET?
WHO ARE YOU?
What's up, baby?
I was just replying to a message.
Okay. Is everything all right?
-Yes. It's all good.
-Okay.
Well, almost good.
Don't worry.
The finger can be fixed with surgery.
No, no, I mean…
Tell us about the Indigenous woman
who rescued you, sweetheart?
You were brought back to life
with potions.
Witchcraft stuff scares me.
I don't like it.
It isn't witchcraft.
It isn't?
What, then?
The way selective memory works is amazing.
It's strange, isn't it?
It isn't strange.
Did you guys know
only 4% of the brain has been studied?
Wow! Really, cuz?
Jacobo won't get it.
His brain's development is limited.
Do we have Bárbara's poison back?
Wild. It means she'll mistreat us
like she always did, like the old days.
That's enough.
Honey, you have homework to do.
Do as I say, sweetheart. Say goodbye.
Who planned to bury me
a week after I vanished?
I understand my brother's appointment.
Dead queen, new king.
But an express funeral ceremony
is a bit too much.
My love,
no matter how much we insisted
to the police, they stopped the search.
We begged them.
I wanted to talk to your dad.
But we were told it was better
not to give him false hope.
He felt bad, the poor guy.
The ceremony was a desperate move
to close something that was destroying us.
This was a total disaster.
As they say, they gave us no hope.
We did it for our child.
Do you understand?
Would you have missed me?
-Of course!
-Oh, Barbie!
How can you say that?
It's a joke, Barbie. We love you.
-They tried to kill you.
-Are you after me?
My love. Barbie.
I thank the Lord that you're alive,
that you're here.
So you can thank Him.
Amen.
Thank you.
Honey.
-Amen.
-Excuse me.
Let me see this.
CAN I CALL YOU?
Texting the resurrected woman?
She's texting me.
Hey, bro!
Don't be nosy. Let go of it.
Am I nosy?
Her family arrived
when I was talking to her.
Shit!
There's something going on.
She lied to them.
She said I was there
because the case was closed.
She won't tell them
someone tried to kill her.
I don't know. I guess.
Do you suspect any of them?
This family has more skeletons
in the closet than a graveyard.
You missed the old man's first wife there.
You're right.
You're right, man.
Her name was Esperanza.
-Did she die?
-She went missing.
She abandoned her kids.
Happens in the best of families.
She doesn't remember she was an asshole.
Barbarita has forgotten everything.
What? Explain it to me. "Barbarita"?
What's wrong with you?
I know you! You like the rich girl.
No way.
But she is a bombshell.
There's something going on,
and we'll find out what it is.
Well…
You'll get into trouble.
DON'T CALL ME. DELETE THE MESSAGES.
SEE YOU TOMORROW. HIDE WHAT I GAVE YOU.
THE EXPLOSION ORIGINATED
FROM A SHORT CIRCUIT.
GRAPHIC EVIDENCE
They left.
Finally.
I said you were tired.
They understood.
Thank you, baby.
I'll check on Mayi.
I miss you, honey. Sneak off!
Come on. Is that why you called?
No.
The supplier wants 5% more.
He can go fuck himself.
Esteban, no.
We can't trust anyone else
to fudge the numbers.
You offer him 3%. And that's it.
Okay, bye.
Problems don't keep to office hours.
Someone taught me that phrase.
Was I really that intense?
In that and…
much more.
Sorry, baby. I'm exhausted.
-Seeing everyone today was…
-I know, I know, I know.
It was too much.
All I want to do is rest.
Let's go and rest.
No!
-You're going to school.
-No, no.
Don't try to convince me
with that pretty face.
WE CAN MEET HERE. D.
-Please, Dad.
-Maya.
No, Maya. Don't give me that look.
-You awakened the Kiss Monster!
-No!
-No, Dad! I'm not going!
-Kiss Monster.
-You're going!
-No, Dad!
Come here! Lend me that monster foot.
Give me that foot!
-No, Dad!
-Yes, Maya!
-No! No!
-Hey, Maya. Your foot stinks.
-Maya, what's that?
-Good morning.
What are you negotiating?
-I didn't want to go to school but I lost.
-You lost.
Mayi, rules are rules.
Yeah, of course, you didn't forget that.
Maya.
But rules are also made to be broken.
Really?
Why not?
Mom is just kidding.
Baby, it's not a big deal
if she misses a day of school.
Don't undermine me.
You're going to school.
You're going to school,
and I'm going to work.
Like the two responsible girls we are.
-Already mad?
-"Already mad?"
Don't talk to me like that.
I'll spank you. You still live here.
Hey.
It's too soon to go back to work.
If I stay one more day here,
I'll lose my mind.
Sure. I'll drive you.
I want to exercise.
See you at Medusa?
Okay.
It wasn't an accident.
There's strong evidence
that the ship was bombed.
If that's true, why was the case closed?
The order came from above.
That's what worries me the most.
Don't you have AC?
No, the air conditioning is busted.
But I can roll down the window
with this trick using a screwdriver.
It's broken too.
Breathe.
Take it easy.
Look, I don't want to pressure you,
but we have no time to waste.
The person who tried to kill you
can try again.
No matter how much I think about
who might have wanted to kill me…
I think you should answer.
Esteban.
I thought we were meeting at Medusa.
Are you all right?
I'll see you there.
I have to go.
Yes.
If anything happens,
even if it's small, tell me.
One more thing.
Go on with your life
as if nothing's happening.
Live life normally.
Thank you.
Under my leadership, we'll take
medicinal mushroom production
to another level.
The conquest will begin in Barranquilla.
With my expansion plan,
we'll start in Asia,
which has been leading
the holistic market.
But no more.
Their leadership ends today.
With great pleasure and honor,
I present to you
our new line, Eternals.
Turn that off.
Sorry for the interruption.
We have a guest.
It's none other than Bárbara Hidalgo.
Good morning.
Welcome back, madam.
Tatiana Mendieta, Purchasing Manager.
Tatiana.
Mrs. Hidalgo, Laboratory Manager.
How are you? Honey.
-How are you?
-Fine.
Thank you.
Welcome, Mrs. Hidalgo.
I'm Gabriel Chafir, Technology Engineer.
Great, Gabriel.
I'm glad to see you all.
Thank you for this warm welcome.
At Medusa, we are all family.
I'm committed to helping
my brother's management excel.
Let's leave them alone
and go work out there.
-Excuse me.
-Let's go.
Just as my dad left it.
I guess you're mad at me, huh?
No. Not at all.
As if I didn't know you.
Let's make sure everything is clear.
I don't want any trouble.
Go on.
I'm happy you're back.
I'm happy you're okay.
Yes, but you didn't visit me.
I knew you wouldn't be away
from Medusa for long.
Of course.
You wanted me to come to you.
Makes perfect sense.
They said you were a different person,
but you're still a pain in the ass.
Cristian, I meant what I said before.
I'm here to help with whatever you need.
That's great,
but I'm the captain of the ship now.
At your service, Captain.
Welcome back! Welcome!
Little sister.
Thank you. See you.
Okay.
-Hello.
-How did it go with your sister?
Good. She’s on board.
Good.
Focus, Esteban. He isn't negotiating.
That's a lot of money.
Let's look at the bright side of this.
That's another year
of under-the-table profits for us.
We're taking too many risks.
Come on!
It's like taking a snake
from Medusa's head.
Relax.
I'll help you
get rid of that anger tonight.
No, no, no.
I don't want Bárbara to get suspicious,
especially now that she doesn't remember.
What a shame. I bought toys to play with.
Really?
No.
Are you sure?
Use it whenever you want.
I'll be wearing it all day long.
UNKNOWN:
WANT TO KNOW WHO TRIED TO KILL YOU?
SEE YOU IN AN HOUR AT NIÑA NEQUE'S PIER.
-Gabriel?
-Mrs. Hidalgo?
How do you…?
How do you know someone tried to kill me?
There's something you must know.
I wasn't working exclusively for Cristian.
I also worked directly for you.
-For me?
-Yes.
There's some information…
Let's see how I can explain it to you.
I played a key role in your becoming CEO
before the so-called accident.
How do you know it wasn't an accident?
There were people very close to you
who wanted you dead.
Be clear. Who were they?
Your entire family.
What's this?
You gathered very important information.
Some kind of evidence.
You asked me to keep it.
It's the only copy.
It isn't connected to any network.
You told me
that if anything ever happened to you,
we'd find the person responsible
in these files.
You never gave me the passwords, though.
-I've started decrypting file by file.
-Wait, wait.
Are you telling me I spied on my family?
Yes, you did some sort of espionage
on every family member
who had a say on the Board.
Why did I do that?
So they would vote for you
to become the new CEO.
Allow me.
For example, your Uncle Camilo,
apparently the most conservative person
in the family, but…
My Uncle Camilo
has lived a double life for years.
With his hidden sexuality.
He goes to places
where he won't be recognized.
Are you happy?
Then let's be happy together.
Why the fuck are you here?
With this information,
you made him change his vote,
and vote for you.
I also have some files about Jacobo.
What about him?
Look at me.
Bye.
Yes, yes, yes.
Come on in.
-I wired you the money, love.
-Bye, love.
Don't let anybody see you.
What part of "Do not disturb"
don't you understand?
Hi, cousin, what's up?
My cousin Jacobo is useless and arrogant,
trying to maintain his lifestyle
with minimal effort.
When his father cut him off,
Jacobo started going after old rich women.
He'll bleed one dry,
then go after another one.
I need a strong drink.
Mrs. Hidalgo.
Open the next one.
There are more files,
but I'm still decrypting them.
I'll need more time.
Unless you remember the password,
and we can move on.
No, I just…
I can't remember any passwords.
Don't worry. I'm here to help you.
I'm working on that.
But I need time.
It seems I was just like them.
You are a warrior.
The perfect CEO for Medusa.
But at any cost?
You always did what you had to do
for your family's company.
I have to go.
-Are you sure?
-Yes.
RAMIRO: BABY, ARE WE MEETING OR WHAT?
Thank you, Gabriel.
You can always count on me, Mrs. Hidalgo.
ONE NEW REMINDER
REMINDER: SUPPORT GROUP MEETING
Mrs. Hidalgo.
I need to see you, detective.
Sure. Tell me where, and I'll be there.
What was so urgent
that you wanted to talk about?
I think…
I think that I'm solely responsible
for my attack.
It seems for quite some time,
I gave my family reasons to want me dead.
I blackmailed them into voting for me.
I don't know…
What was going through my mind?
Don't be so hard on yourself.
You are a hard-working, intelligent woman.
Do you know what you need?
A cold beer to relax.
Why don't we go somewhere else?
My place is close by.
Don't go to your place. Let's talk.
Let's drink some beer and relax.
How about that?
Let's go.
We're very close.
You just need to talk and relax.
Hello.
The girl of the house.
What's her name?
Her name is Bandolera.
I found her during an operation.
She belonged to a gang.
They were going to take her to a shelter,
but I brought her here.
I never imagined you could find
something so beautiful with gangsters.
Of course you can.
That's how you showed up.
Why did you collect all this information
if the case was closed?
I never thought it was an accident.
I feel something strange about you.
Really?
What could that be?
I feel you aren't lying to me.
Don't worry. I'm not flirting with you.
Damn it. That's a shame.
I'll reopen your case
to investigate and find out who did this.
That would tip off the possible killer.
We won't find them.
-"We"?
-Yes, I'll help you from the inside.
-That isn't a good idea.
-Yes, think about it.
It's the best way.
I'm close to the suspects.
We must use that to our advantage.
I need to get my life back.
You'll get it back. Don't worry.
I have to go.
You told me to stick to my routine.
This may seem crazy…
but the accident did you good.
I mean it.
And not just physically.
Then how?
You're different.
You're someone else.
And I love it.
I love it.
Is my husband on your list of suspects?
Is he on yours?
Stop.
Want me to stop?
Should I stop?
-I'm telling you to stop.
-Okay.
I said no.
-I thought you were playing.
-What?
That's what we do.
I'm sorry.
-It's okay.
-You're right. Sorry.
It's okay.
It's strange, but…
Today I feel like I miss her.
EUDAMONIA
SUPPORT GROUP
Today I would have made
a different decision.
I'd be a mother.
I'm not the monster I thought I was.
Although I still feel guilty
about many things,
I no longer identify with her.
Thank you.
Thank you, Clara. Thank you very much.
Well?
Does anyone else
want to share a testimony?
Danger, are you next?
No.
No, thank you.
It's nice to meet you. I'm Miguel.
Hi, Miguel.
I had a shitty day.
When I thought the storm had passed…
Hey, Mommy.
I'm off to see my dad.
-Bye.
-Bye.
Let go of it.
Let go of it.
Let go of it.
Ramiro.
-Hey, baby.
-Hello.
So, you still don't remember us?
No, I don't remember it.
And I'm here to--
What we had
was unbelievable.
Ramiro, whatever it was, it's over.
-No way.
-Yes. Listen.
Don't call me or look for me.
I don't want my husband
to find out about this, okay?
Your husband knows all about it.
What?
Yes, you have an open marriage.
Each of you has your own relationships.
You told me you did that
to keep the spark alive.
I said that?
But…
if you don't believe me…
Look.
Eluney.
