Distrito Salvaje (2018) s01e02 Episode Script

Infiltration

1 Your new life begins today, Jhon Gómez.
Remember that you don't exist to us.
You will work in a supermarket.
Your money will come from that.
You'll live on that.
You will have a boss.
Please cover that mark on your arm.
I don't want you to scare off my clients.
- You may even have a friend.
- Nice to meet you.
I'm Alvarito.
- I'm Jhon Gómez.
- Welcome to paradise, man.
But don't forget the most important thing.
This is an operation and I am in charge.
Tell me if you're in or not.
Because If you're not, don't worry.
I'll take you back to that crappy motel you were staying in with your family.
Two months, Jhon, and your mother and son will be smoking crack under a bridge.
And you'll be rotting in prison.
Tell me.
Are we in on this or what? When do I start, sir? Your direct superior is Giselle.
You'll only report to her.
And she will be your shadow.
Your target is Apache.
Apache isn't a regular guerrilla fighter.
He has been demobilized for 20 years.
He's gotten used to the city.
He is camouflaged in the city.
Apache is a guerrilla fighter in a suit.
We want to know all his contacts and connections.
What we want to know the most is who he is working for.
We have information that he was with Block 4 at Meta.
But we haven't been able to find him in Bogotá.
Apache may seem approachable, even nice.
When you find him, get close to him and gain his trust.
Become his friend.
But be very careful, Jhon.
Don't be reckless.
Don't let yourself be tempted.
Apache is an unstable mercenary.
He is totally unpredictable.
A murderer.
Last but not least, Jhon Gómez the most important thing is don't ever forget which side you're on.
Never.
My house is not part of our deal.
Nothing is left out of our deal, Jhon.
What do you want? From now on, our deal will be different.
What kind of deal? You'll help me, and I'll help you.
That kind of deal.
And what kind of help will it be? Well, we'll decide as we go along.
What about the cops then? You'll keep working with them as usual.
But we'll have our own communication channel.
How are you going to help me then? I'll keep your identity hidden.
And I'll warn you if Aníbal is coming to kill you.
Does that mean that the son of a bitch is here in Bogotá? Good night, Light Footed.
I'll be in touch.
Why are you looking so grim? We're on duty.
Stop making faces, this is serious.
You're too serious, Light Footed.
Take off that scarf, you pussy.
We're paramilitary, not guerrillas.
People can't tell the difference here.
Hello there! How are you doing? Which one of you was running? You? Were you running? - Were you running? - I'm not doing anything.
What were you doing? Relax, relax, relax! Don't worry.
What ? You! Did you see that? Did you see that, motherfucker? Tell everybody that this is a message from Self-Defense Ulysses Block.
You got it? What are you looking at? What are you looking at, motherfucker? Speak! - No, please! I'm begging you! - Please, don't! Please, I'm begging you! Walk! Those weren't our orders, Raúl.
Our orders are to turn the townsfolk against the paramilitary.
- They were children.
- They were targets! Don't call me Raúl again.
My name is Aníbal.
Let's go, the police are coming! Hey, Jhon, this is fast.
Just compare the price there and here.
And you stick it on to the item.
Fast.
Now you try.
Oh, mate, there are things that are just priceless.
PROSECUTOR - There are some flowers for you, ma'am.
- From Ramón? No.
- Did it have a note? - Yes.
"In memory of Daniela León.
We'd like to invite you to the funeral of this tireless and excellent prosecutor.
The funeral will be held in Bogotá " - When? - Today.
Thank you, Sandro.
- Hello? - She's here.
Okay, let her in.
- Madam Prosecutor.
- Please.
Thank you.
- Flowers.
- Oh, my fans They love me.
It must be difficult to be you.
- Álex.
Can I call you Álex? - Sure.
I admire your work.
I'd been wanting to meet you.
Thank you, but I don't understand what I'm doing here.
As you may know, I was assigned the case of the Deputy Treasury Inspector's murder.
And as you may also know, she had been investigating some corruption cases related with Bogotá 2030 Plan.
It's a very complex issue.
Exactly.
I'm under a lot of pressure around this case.
And I know that I'll disturb a lot of people with this investigation.
Plus, the fact that I'm a woman What I mean is that I need to be surrounded by the best.
- Madam Prosecutor - Daniela.
Daniela.
- I'll be honest with you.
- Please.
I don't care if you're a woman or the Queen of the Savannah.
I'm a journalist.
I have no allies.
The only thing I'm interested in is facts.
That's all.
Okay.
Look, Álex.
I come from a family of peasants.
My brother was killed No, he wasn't killed.
He died because he stepped on a landmine and he couldn't read the sign.
Nobody has given me anything for free.
Never.
I've had to earn everything.
Well, except for my parents, God rest their souls.
Just like you, I also seek the truth.
I look for it, find it and you tell it.
Before anyone else.
Am I clear? It's not a sign of weakness.
I want to make that clear.
Depression is a real illness like typhoid fever or leishmaniasis.
That's why it is important to know its symptoms in order to treat it.
Sadness, lack of energy, insomnia, anxiety - You and I have already met, right? - I don't think so.
I think it was at Meta in Block 4.
Who knows.
I've met a lot of people.
Well, I'm looking for work.
The kind of work you and I know how to do.
I've heard that you have good connections.
- Who told you that? - It doesn't matter.
Look, boy, I don't want any trouble.
No, believe me, I'm not looking for trouble either.
I just want to work.
Tell me where I can find it.
I repeat that I don't want any trouble, boy.
Son of a bitch, who are you mistaking me with? Motherfucker, I'm not your guy.
I'm not your guy.
Hey! Stop! Your partners from Block 4.
Where can I find them? I don't have a fucking clue! I don't know what the fuck you're talking about! - Did you remember? - Stop! Stop! In the South There's a neighborhood called Fontibón.
And the company is called Total Security.
But if I were you, I wouldn't go there alone.
Those people are evil.
I'm telling you, man to man Don't tell them I told you.
Otherwise, they'll kill me.
Thank you.
Carmelo, let's go.
Come inside the house for a moment.
Ramón wants to give you something.
Thank you, madam.
Darling? - Hello! - Hello.
- Is he still taking his lesson? - Yes, he's still being tortured.
Look, Carmelo.
I have this for you.
The best Colombian chocolate, you can share it with your family.
Thank you, Ramón.
The children will be very happy.
Yes, and it comes from your country.
It is very much appreciated in Europe.
Really? Thank you so much.
- Another box? - No, it's okay.
- Are you sure? - Yes, totally.

Madam Daniela, have a good night.
- See you tomorrow, sleep well.
- Yes, madam.
- Thank you.
- Bye, sleep well.
Hey, are you Are you okay? Yes, it's just Today was one of those days.
Lately, every day has become one of those days.
Who's there? Hello.
I'm looking for a job and I'd like to talk to your boss.
Who sent you? No one sent me.
I was told that I could get a job here, so I decided to come.
- Hello.
- Hello.
How can I help you, my friend? - Can I talk to your boss? - What for? Who sent you, scumbag? Let him go, asshole! Drop the gun.
What the fuck is going on here? - Jhon Gómez at your service, sir.
- What do you need? - Fuck! - Work.
Shut up! How did you find out about us? Well Some friends at the Home of Peace told me this would be a good place to find a job.
I have a family to support.
I've tried lots of other things, but This is the only thing I'm good at, sir.
Do you know the paper factory on Caracas Avenue? No, sir, but I can find it.
I'll wait for you there tomorrow.
At midnight in the underground parking lot.
You gonna let that motherfucker join us? Shut up or I'll break your other arm, asshole! Misury.
Find out where that pussy came from.
We ask Thee, o Lord, to keep in Thy glory the young and innocent soul of Lucas Salerno, who was taken from us at a very early age one month ago today, because of the cruel violence that is plaguing our society.
However, we know that Lucas is now enjoying Thy presence and that brings us peace and joy Are you sleeping well, Duque? What's wrong? - Nothing.
- Nothing? Do you think I'm stupid? Mrs.
Salerno I'm so sorry for your loss, I'd like to express my condolences.
I don't give a fuck if you're sorry.
Lucas is dead because of you.
I don't want to see you again.
Why did you go to the funeral of the Salerno boy? Are you a masochist? His parents want to be left alone.
Their grief is overwhelming, you have to understand.
I want to tell you that we did all we could, - everything that we could do - Leave us alone.
We shouldn't have paid the ransom.
They were going to kill him anyway.
Had we paid or not, they were going to kill him.
You did everything right, Duque.
You followed the protocol.
- Lucas is still dead.
- But it's not your fault.
I'll tell you something, Giselle.
If your father was here, he'd be very proud of you.
Eat something, come on! Welcome, good afternoon.
Why did you choose this school? We heard that it's very good and it delivers top-quality education.
Top-quality.
Some of the most important public figures in Colombia attended this school.
Yes, we know about that.
These are our fees and modes of payment.
But first you'll have to pass an entrance examination.
A lot of candidates want to be enrolled here.
We must take in only the most well-prepared.
- Okay, thank you.
- Where's his mom? My mom is at home preparing lunch.
No, Mr.
Gómez.
Mario's mother.
Where is she? - Well - They say my mom died.
She was an American woman who came to Colombia on a humanitarian mission.
But she was kidnapped by guerrillas, and that's where she met my dad.
But it was forbidden for guerillas to have kids, so my dad sent me to my grandma.
That's why I never met my mom.
And that's why we chose San Pascal.
We know that you want to collaborate in the Colombian peace process.
What you just said about your mom It's true.
She is dead.
What's wrong? In an exclusive statement made to this program, Prosecutor León shows that she is determined to solve this case.
When asked how she will get to the bottom of the Deputy Treasury Inspector's murder.
This is what she had to say.
Using all the legal tools at the prosecution's disposal.
Let me tell you this.
Days before the murder of the treasury inspector, she had started an exhaustive investigation on the Bogotá 2030 Plan that disturbed some people.
Coincidence? I'm sure that this will uncover one of the biggest cases of corruption in Bogotá right now.
I won't stop until I prove it.
A strong statement from the prosecutor.
What was the reaction in Congress? We're going to talk to Senator Ibargüen.
He belongs to the reformist group of new senators.
Senator Ibargüen, what is your reaction to the prosecutor's statement? Good morning, Álex.
The first thing I must say is: "Hats off" to the commitment of Prosecutor León, not only to the law, but also to the Colombian people.
We've been working for some time in the Senate to do things differently than they have been done before.
- Thank you very much, Senator.
- Thank you, Álex.
Times of change for the Senate and the prosecution.
Can all this be possible? For the sake of our country, let's hope it is.
I'm Álex Mallarino, always bringing you the latest news.
How can they ask for so much money? Do they think money has no value or what? Who can afford to pay for that? I think a lot of people can afford to pay.
You have to talk to Mario.
I was just thinking that maybe Maybe you could talk to him.
If you want him to see you as his father, you'd better start being one.
But he'll see me as an enemy because of this.
That won't happen because I haven't raised him that way.
Tell him that you can't afford that school and end of story.
He's going to be upset, but he will understand.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- How are you doing? - I saw you on TV.
- Really? - Yeah, you were the star all day long.
- What did you think? - You were great.
But I don't think that Eduardo will like that much publicity.
Well, the Deputy Prosecutor wants results and this prosecutor will give him that.
No, darling.
- What? - I'm all sweaty.
- And this underwear is awful.
- What's the problem? I know you'd look better in lingerie, but for now Hello.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Could you tell me the price of this? What is this for? - It's for burns.
- Did you burn yourself? Yes.
The problem is that this is totally useless.
Follow me.
Look.
Take these two aloe leaves.
Follow me.
You take those aloe leaves and cut them open with a knife.
They have aloe gel inside.
Remove the gel and grind it until you get a sort of cream.
You apply it to the burn and leave it overnight.
Then, the next day, you wake up, and boil this calendula.
Then remove the aloe with calendula water and it will heal very quickly.
- How long do I have to use it? - All night.
Okay.
Thank you.
It's my pleasure.
The prosecutor is investigating a contract that the mayor of Bogotá signed when he received another contract Hello.
How was your day, son? Fine.
I'm still training.
Where's Mario? In his bedroom studying for that exam.
- He didn't have dinner with you? - No.
He says he needs to focus.
He has it in his head that he's going to enroll in that school.
You have to talk to him.
May I go to the restroom? Come in.
Come in! Have you eaten? Yes.
I don't like you leaving Grandma alone.
I'm studying to get into that school.
Look, I I've been thinking about that school - I don't think I can - Don't worry.
Don't worry.
I'll get in.
But that school is for the oligarchy, for people with money.
I told you I'll get in.
I'm sure I can pass the exam.
Don't worry.
Okay Keep studying, then.
May I go to the restroom? Mom.
Oh, my son! What's wrong? - Nothing's wrong.
- Why are you here? What ? - What ? - Don't worry.
Go to sleep.
- Is it the people at the hostel? - No, it's not that.
Please go to sleep.
Sleep? Tell me once and for all if we'll have to live with you as a ghost in this house.
If that's the case, we'll leave.
No, I swear nothing's wrong.
- Tell me.
Do we have to leave? - Look, it's just that I I was just checking around the house.
It's a habit I've had for years.
Go to sleep.

With justice and truth Along with the people Who the fuck are you? There's a couple of things you need to know, guerrilla.
First Nothing happens without us knowing about it.
Second, we have no mercy.
Kill him.
Get that piece of shit out of here.
Don't do it, sir.
Don't be afraid, guerrilla.
I'm not afraid.
It's a warning.
Stop him! Get him! Where the fuck is he? Where is that motherfucker? Get him and bring him here! I told you.
This is the only thing I'm good at, sir.
Who the fuck are you? May I remind you that it is totally forbidden to uncover the test until I tell you to start.
It's comprised of 50 quiz type questions.
- You'll have to choose - Look, Mario, it's just answer A, B, C or D.
Whatever happens in that exam, your grandma and I are very proud of you.
You're talking as if I wasn't going to pass.
No, it's not that.
Then what is it? Look, the truth is that I I don't have the money to pay for this school.
Not even working two or three shifts.
- Then why the fuck did I have to study? - Mario - I didn't want to disappoint you.
- Go to hell! Sir.
Don't you want to know Mario's score? I've been thinking about it and this isn't the best school for him.
- He had the highest score.
- What? Your son was the best.
- My son? - He will receive automatic enrollment.
We offer two full scholarships every year.
One is for Mario.
You're too old to throw those tantrums.
Grandma, you should agree with me this time.
He should have told me before.
Mario! - He's in.
- He is? I'm in! - He's in.
- I'm in! - We have a new recruit.
- Where did you find him? In the street.
He's special.
