Santita (2026) s01e07 Episode Script

[soft music playing]
[Santita singing indistinctly]
[in Spanish]I still had hope
At the bottom of my soul ♪
That one day you’d stay with me ♪
I still had a dream
That kept my heart from falling ill ♪
But now that we’re just friends
It’s falling quick ♪
And even though I was in love
And totally wrong ♪
It’s fine by me ♪
[intriguing music playing]
[Verónica] She's still here.
-[man] Fixed.
-[Verónica] Look who's tripping!
[man] The whole thing's fixed, I swear.
Looks like someone's spaced out
over there.
What's up?
You guys are still here?
Look, I don't have your money. I'm sorry.
Oh, take a chill pill.
Tonight's just about
enjoying the party with family.
You get a stay of execution.
But now that you mention it,
when can I expect the money?
I've been trying to sell some land
to pay you back, but it hasn't been easy.
You can have my car.
It's an old piece of shit, but it runs.
Or I could prostitute myself.
There's a kink for this, right?
[chuckling]
Listen to this woman.
You can calm down.
Your daddy's gonna pay your debt.
You've got a lot of people who love you.
Even if I don't understand it.
[Santita] Fucking hypocrite.
Go on, go after your boss.
[chuckling]
[Santita sighing]
[brother] How's Alejandro doing,
by the way?
[Santita] He's hanging in there.
For now, anyway.
Ooh, oo-ooh, ooh.
He's got a flair for the dramatics.
[brothers laughing]
I'm only here because of Dad,
so I wouldn't be fucking with me
if I were you.
-Lía took him home.
-We didn't think you were coming back.
[Santita] Might've been nice
to let me know, save me the trip.
If you hadn't come all the way out here,
you wouldn't have chance
to make yourself center of attention.
-[brother 1] Take it easy, Juan.
-[Juan] I'm sorry, but it's true. Come on.
Remember our mother's funeral,
when she insisted on wearing
that stupid pink dress,
and we all just had to accept it?
-Oh my God. You and the dress.
-[brother] She was six!
Just drop it with the fucking dress.
I told you, Mom sewed it for me.
-What's your problem?
-[Juan] I'll tell you.
My problem is that you don't give a fuck
about anyone else.
-Juan, stop.
-It's always about you.
That's enough! You've both made
your points now. Can you drop it?
-Okay, okay, I'm done.
-Good.
You just don't get it, huh?
Blind as a bat.
A bunch a shit happening right
under your nose, and you don't notice.
Thought about why your son
didn't want his sister at his wedding?
Don't.
[Santita scoffs]
Hey, Armando.
Anything you wanna add to this?
Anything to share with the group?
No. I don't know why you're asking me.
-So, where's your wife tonight?
-She didn't come.
Apparently, she was too tired.
And Lía? She say when she'd be back?
What are you talking about? Huh?
-You're pathetic.
-[Juan] What do you mean?
-Hey! What do you mean?
-[Sierra] Let it go.
You know what I mean.
-Hey, hey. Please, stop.
-What does she mean?
Calm down. She's insane.
You know that better than anyone.
-Tell me right now, asshole!
-Take it easy. Breathe, will you?
-[Sierra] Stop! No! What the fuck?
-There ya go. Place your bets!
-[Juan] You son of a bitch!
-I'm betting on you, Juan Antonio.
-Juan! Stop!
-[Armando] You've lost your mind!
-Back off!
-[Sierra] The fuck? Stop. Now.
-[Montse] Dad, please.
-[Lía] What the hell is going on?
-I can't believe you!
-I'm okay.
[Juan] What the fuck did you do?
-[Sierra] Let's talk at home.
-What did she say?
[brother] Go sleep it off.
You'll feel better.
-[Juan] No. I won't, dammit.
-[brother] Seriously.
-Your daughter's an incredible woman.
-Don't defend me!
Bastard!
How would you feel
if she was your daughter?
You're disgusting!
Pathetic excuse for a man!
-Sick pervert!
-Hey! I know what I'm doing, okay?
This was my decision.
I'm the only one responsible for it.
I should get going.
[brother] No, stay. Please.
There's no need to go.
I'm sorry, but I can't be
in the same room as him.
-Disgusting.
-He's fine. He'll be okay.
[David sighs] What's the matter with you?
Armando, I'm so sorry about that. Please.
You can find another investor.
No. Please, don't go.
Let's talk about this.
Come on! Let's not make
a rash decision that we'll regret!
Just couldn't shut up, huh? No.
You'll only be satisfied when
everyone's life is as fucked up as yours.
Oh, you think it's not?
It already is.
You just didn't want to accept that.
But now you don't need to pretend.
All you care about
is that stupid fucking business.
And I don't give a shit.
You can all split my share of the land.
I don't want it.
Make your wine all you fucking want,
and sell it to tourists.
Please, just keep me out of it.
Yeah.
[dance music playing in distance]
[Lía] Santita!
I trusted you.
No. You were caught in a public place
by me. That's not the same thing.
And that makes what you did tonight
okay to you?
Of course not.
But I'm sick and tired of all of you, Lía.
Your brother already found out
because you were careless.
It was only a matter of time
till the rest did.
Yeah, well,
despite what everyone else thinks,
you were never my enemy.
But I guess I was wrong.
You're just as self-centered and cruel
as they always said you were.
Welcome to the club.
You're still here?
[Sierra] Well,
my husband was so pissed off,
he left without me.
Can I have one?
[Sierra sighs]
[Santita] Thanks.
Didn't peg you for a smoker.
I'm better at keeping secrets
than my daughter.
So you knew about it?
[Sierra] I know you think I'm naive,
and maybe I am.
But I can read my daughter
and I'm not stupid.
I know my children well.
And I knew my daughter wouldn't take
any advice about this from me.
I hoped maybe you could help,
but I guess
I was barking up the wrong tree.
It was really stupid of me to think that.
I did try.
I don't understand why
you keep expecting things from me.
[sighs] Yeah, I'm starting
to wonder that myself.
I think it's because
you're so good with your patients.
That's not the same though.
[Sierra] Of course not. You only screw up
the lives of those who love you, right?
[Sierra sighs]
[door closes]
[breathing heavily]
[sighs]
-[machine beeping rhythmically]
-[dance music fading in]
[music fades]
MAURICIO: CAN WE TALK?
PASCAL, I NEED YOU TO COME GET ME.
I'm still looking into
the construction site,
but I haven't found
anything useful for you yet.
I'll keep looking through.
Don't. It doesn't matter.
It's not important.
[Pascal] Sorry I didn't come through.
No, please. You did your best.
I'm just done with it.
[melancholy music playing]
[Santita sighs heavily]
[Alejandro sniffs]
[machine beeping rhythmically]
[Santita] Still breathing, I see.
-You don't need it anymore?
-[ragged breathing]
No.
Now I just wanna close my eyes
and fall asleep.
Is that too much to ask?
It is, unfortunately.
I know you'd help me
if I were someone else.
You're too important to lose twice.
I need a miracle, Santita.
[Santita chuckles softly]
I'll be back soon.
Okay.
I promise not to move till then.
SACRED HEART OF JESUS
[Pascal] Dr. Santita.
-Let me help you.
-Great. Thank you.
You okay? You look a little tired.
Let me take you home
so you can get some rest, all right?
There's too much going on for me to sleep,
but I appreciate the thought.
[Pascal] Okay, are you sure?
[Santita] Yeah.
I'm sure, thank you.
Pascal.
You're gonna make a great father.
[breathing heavily]
[cell phone buzzing]
[buzzing stops]
[cell phone buzzing]
So where would you like to go, Doctor?
Take me to the horse tracks.
[indistinct yell in distance]
["Jefe De Jefes" playing]
I don't have any leads today. I'm sorry.
Pascal, would it be okay
if you gave us a minute?
-Of course, Doctor.
-Thanks.
I need some pentobarbital.
What the hell are you gonna do with that?
[Santita sighs]
I'm gonna grant a miracle.
I don't follow.
What would you do
if one of your patients was suffering?
You'd help them out.
Right?
[Agustín sighs]
Are you talking about a horse
or a chihuahua?
Probably more like…
a Saint Bernard.
[Agustín sighs heavily]
-[Santita sighs]
-[horse nickers]
[melancholy music playing]
Well, that should do the trick.
Thank you, my friend.
Yeah, good luck with that.
[cell phone buzzes]
[zipper opening]
[outgoing call tone]
[Santita sighs]
[cell phone buzzing]
Hey, you.
I called to tell you
you were wrong.
You said I'd do this for anybody else.
That's not true.
I'll do it for you, nobody else.
So you'll do it?
[Santita] Call me when you're ready.
But don't take too long,
or I might change my mind.
My doctor and Ceci are on their way.
I'll be in touch when they leave.
Hm.
Okay.
Your big butt and I will be
all on our own.
You and I,
and a good dose of pentobarbital.
[crowd shouting, whistling]
[horse hooves pounding]
[mixture of cheers and groans]
[Pascal] You win?
[sighs] No idea.
Is my goddaughter around?
[Pascal chuckles softly]
Yeah, sure, we can see her.
[baby Santita crying]
[Santita] Hey, Roseline.
It's good to see you, Doctor.
I wanted to see little baby Santita.
-Thought she could maybe lift my spirits.
-Hey! Yeah, come on up.
-[Santita] She always makes me smile.
-Oh, it's okay. I got you.
-Beauty.
-[baby Santita fussing]
Come here, sweetheart.
-[Pascal] She wanted to visit the baby.
-[Roseline] That's sweet.
She okay? Feels a little out of the blue.
Something's going on. I'm not sure.
Well, she's welcome anytime.
Especially after everything
she's done for us.
[Pascal] Of course.
I do my best to help her with everything.
You just want the world
to know you're here, don't you?
I do too.
[chuckles softly]
Something we have in common, I guess.
This is for you.
It'll bring you luck and protection.
-What is that?
-[Pascal] Just a little gift for the baby.
We can't take that. It's too much.
No, Doctor, uh…
No, please we can't accept that.
Please, I want you to.
It's important to me that you take it.
Thank you.
[Pascal] Let me help you.
[baby Santita crying]
[Pascal] Oh, hey.
-Shh, shh, shh. Okay, okay.
-[cell phone buzzes]
[Pascal] It's okay. [chuckles]
It's okay. It's okay, sweetie.
Mm. Shh, it's okay.
ALEJANDRO: THE COAST IS CLEAR.
[Pascal] You're okay. It's okay, Santita.
[elevator dings]
[melancholy music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[Mauricio and doctor chattering]
[Mauricio] She's in there.
[machine beeping rhythmically]
[kissing]
[Alejandro sobbing softly]
[Alejandro sighs shakily]
[Santita sighs]
Can I buy you a drink?
[Santita sighs]
[Santita sniffles]
To your health.
Yeah, cheers.
Oh, that's good.
[Alejandro grunts weakly, sniffs]
Another one?
Yeah, but let's do it.
Spike this one.
[solemn music playing]
Think you weigh roughly the same
as a Saint Bernard?
Probably. And Saint Bernard? Cool dog.
[Santita sighs]
[Santita sobbing gently]
[glass breaking]
-[Alejandro sniffles]
-[Santita sighs shakily]
We'll meet again. I know it.
I hope we have better luck.
[Alejandro sniffles]
Yeah.
Thank you.
[Alejandro sighs, sniffles]
[Alejandro groans softly]
Thank you, Mari.
[Santita breathes shakily]
[Alejandro groans softly]
-[machine beeping steadily]
-[Santita gasps]
[Santita sobbing]
[footsteps approaching]
What happened?
[tense music playing]
What's going on?
[Cecilia gasps]
[Cecilia] Doctor!
[Santita gasps, sniffles]
[nurse] He's unresponsive.
-Get him a dose of adrenaline, stat.
-[nurse] On it.
Starting CPR.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
[nurse 2] Clear!
[shock thumps]
[nurse] Four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten.
[shock thumps]
[doctor] I'll use the other one.
-[rhythmic pumping]
-[shock thumps]
[doctor] Doctor, call it.
-[doctor 2] Time of death 7:24 p.m.
-[Cecilia sobbing]
[doctor 2] I'm so sorry.
[Cecilia sobbing]
[Cecilia sighs]
[Cecilia sobs]
[Cecilia] What did you do?
-Huh?
-What's going on?
-What happened?
-[Cecilia] Tell me!
You did this! [breathes shakily]
What happened?
[Santita] Nothing.
[Mauricio sighs]
Santita, I need you to tell me.
You need to tell me.
No, it has nothing to do with you.
It's got everything to do with me.
Did you ever care about me?
[elevator dings]
Gimme a break.
[elevator doors closing]
[Mauricio sighs]
[trunk closes]
Please, take me to the dock.
I wanna look out at the ocean.
I don't know how to get there.
Don't worry. I can direct you.
Is everything okay, Doctor?
At the first exit, make a left.
[engine starts]
[cell phone buzzing]
[cell phone buzzing]
[cell phone buzzing]
[cell phone buzzing]
[waves crashing]
There.
Uh, Doctor? You're not supposed to--
It's fine.
[melancholy music playing]
[Pascal] Please, be careful.
Doctor. Come on, let's go.
[Santita sobbing]
Don't stop. Drive, drive!
-[Pascal] What? Why?
-Go, go, go!
[Santita sighs] You're kidding me.
[doorbell rings]
[doorbell ringing]
Doctor, um… You don't usually
make house calls this late.
Alma, it might be a lot to ask, but I need
a place to sleep tonight, if that's okay?
It's important.
Your place is a no-go, tonight?
Alma, don't make me beg you.
Please.
Yeah, okay.
My mom's sleeping
so you'll need to keep it down, okay?
Of course.
Pascal.
For the trouble.
If you need to call a taxi or…
But can't I just wait for you?
It's no problem, Doctor, honestly.
I'm happy to wait.
No, it's okay. I'll be fine.
Thank you for everything.
[Alma] How was the wedding?
Um…
-Your nephew's wedding, how'd it go?
-Hm.
Already feels like forever ago.
Thanks for this.
So am I allowed to know what's going on?
No.
Okay.
Get some sleep.
[somber music playing]
[rooster crowing]
[chimes tinkling]
[ship horn honking]
[rhythmic beeping]
[cacophony of noise intensifying]
[wings fluttering]
[music becomes ominous]
No!
[Santita gasps, breathes heavily]
[upbeat music playing in distance]
[sighs]
[sighs]
[rooster crowing]
-[cell phone buzzing]
-[sighs heavily]
[sighs]
[sniffles]
[sniffles]
[sighs, sniffles]
-[sighs]
-Can I make you a coffee?
[sighs] Thank you.
[Alma] Just got a call
from a friend of mine at the hospital.
Tell me now. Is it true?
[Santita sighs]
You piece of shit.
You're going straight to hell.
And you know what?
You deserve it.
Hm.
[sighs] See yourself out.
["El Traidor" playing in distance]
[cell phone buzzing]
[cell phone buzzing]
[cell phone buzzing]
[uneasy music playing]
[Lucas] Hmm.
Hey, uh, my daughter just walked in.
Do you mind if we finish playing later on?
-Ah, yes, for sure.
-[Lucas] Thanks.
[Silvia] Doctor.
I've heard a lot of rumors.
I can imagine.
[Lucas sighs]
You've got a real talent
for stirring up trouble, you know that?
Are you surprised?
-No, I just wouldn't be bragging about it.
-I'm not, Pa.
[Lucas] So, Alejandro?
Is that what he wanted?
I tried to talk him out of it.
Not to do it, but…
But he asked you for help, didn't he?
And you had to.
You could never say no. Especially you.
[Santita sniffles]
I told myself
he was better off without me.
[Lucas] That's a lie you've been
telling yourself for a long time.
And lying to yourself is worse
than lying to other people.
[Santita] I didn't wanna
abandon him again.
Listen to me, right now.
Your greatest gift, Mari,
is that you're always willing
to do the right thing.
No matter how incredibly hard
or ugly that may be.
Unfortunately,
even things done with good intentions
have consequences.
But luckily, you're better than most of us
at starting over.
[man] Lucas.
Dr. Cano.
You're under arrest
on suspicion of murder.
-[melancholy music playing]
-[Santita sniffles]
So a patient with advanced
metastasized cancer passes away,
and you think I killed him?
I had nothing to do with it.
Go fuck yourselves.
-[cop friend] Don't do this.
-No, no, no. No!
Get your hands off me! Don't touch me!
I said no! Get off! Pa!
Tell them I didn't do it!
Let me go, bastards! Let me go!
-Ah!
-[Lucas] Hey! Be careful with her!
-[cop friend] Pick her up!
-No! Stop it! Stop! Get off! No.
Get the fuck off of me. I need my chair.
No, let me go!
Get off! You can't just do this!
Pa! Pa!
No! Get your hands off me!
Please, don't do this.
I didn't do it! Stop! No!
[applause, whistling]
[applause continues]
[melancholy music continues]
[applause stops]
