EPITAPHS
What did he do to him?
He performed an autopsy on him.
You could say that Dr. Paz died
in the middle of an autopsy.
He didn't drink,
didn't smoke
it's a tragedy.
Why?
He had a very strong heart,
he was conscious
the whole time,
he had to have suffered
horribly.
That will not happen to me.
- Thank you.
- Don't mention it.
Thanks for washing my clothes.
No problem.
Hello.
Good morning.
How are you?
A little confused.
Shall we go?
So what's the strategy?
Wait for him.
I put an officer
in my house with my dad.
- Which one?
- Roca.
He's good. What else?
Three at the door,
and a patrol car patrolling
the area every 30 minutes.
How about you?
I'm by myself.
I want that son of a bitch
to come straight for me.
You're a little naive
to think you can choose
what he'll do next.
I make the decisions
in my life.
Thanks for taking me home.
I'll walk you in.
- What's wrong?
- Nothing.
First me, then you.
Slowly.
What's that?
My card house.
I make one for each case.
wants you to tell me.
I know him, there's a reason
he didn't pick me up.
He doesn't like to be
the bearer of bad news.
You're off the case.
He can't do that to me.
Yes, he can, he can
Because you're involved
emotionally,
because you just had
a horrible experience.
- And you're not?
- It's not the same.
My God, it's not the same.
Okay.
off the case,
but don't do it,
please.
I know him better than anybody.
I was there-- right there.
Watching him plan out
each step he was going to take.
If you take me off the case
you're giving him an advantage.
He won't strike right now.
He knows they're waiting
for him.
He'll let time go by, he'll let
everyone get comfortable,
and he'll look for company.
He's terrified of being alone.
That is his weak spot.
I'll do what I can.
off the case.
I want to go to my office.
- Is it necessary?
- In order to breathe? Yes.
- Sorry.
- It's okay.
I just want my computer,
because Nico learned how
to send emails.
That's fine.
Should I tell Roca?
No, I want Roca here,
Gomez will go with you.
Roca here? Why?
To take care of me?
Get real.
I'm not going to argue, Dad.
- I love you.
- I love you, too.
- Goodbye.
- See you later, Laura.
- Hello.
- What's up?
- We need your statement.
About what?
The murder of your mother.
WHAT DOESN'T KILL ME
MAKES ME STRONGER.
I love that phrase.
Is something wrong?
Can you help me?
I can't believe it.
The gun had
your prints on it.
I already told you.
No one here is accusing you
of anything.
We just want to know
what it was like.
Terrible.
I can imagine.
And?
And the gun?
In my hand.
Shoot.
Shoot.
Shoot.
Come on, Marina.
Now.
Shoot. Shoot.
Shoot.
And he tried to make me
do it on my own.
And did you?
No.
No, no!
And I don't remember
anything else.
Marina, I need to know.
Am I under arrest?
Am l?
Leave me alone.
Don't be afraid.
- You don't get it.
- Yes I do.
He went into your office
and tampered with your computer.
I got it.
But what does he gain
by doing that?
All my patients' personal
information is in there.
PATlENT'S PERSONAL lNFORMATlON
Your share.
- So?
- Thank you.
Anyone else?
Some advice.
You've just won two in a row,
go celebrate.
Because I highly doubt
you'll do it again.
Surprise.
Last I heard,
you were in a hospital.
I'm out. Do you have someone
for me to play?
What a coincidence.
I just asked him
the same thing.
What's your name?
It doesn't matter.
I was just trying to be nice.
Does that bother you?
I don't play to meet
nice people.
How much is there?
5.000.
You in?
I understand it all.
You don't care if you live.
You're right, I care if I win.
Hey, I have something for you.
I double the pot.
It's your call.
A lot of guys must fall
for this trick, huh?
Right to the floor
bullet to the head.
You're crazy.
That's what they tell me,
but I'm alive.
Yeah, I understand.
Okay, does she have a cell phone
where I could--?
Of course.
If you see her,
tell her to call me, please.
Don't worry, everything
will be okay.
Goodbye.
How did it go?
I got through to all but one
of my patients:
Gustavo Echevarria.
He's a coke addict.
He hasn't been home
in three days.
His mother is going insane.
He'll be hard to find because
he doesn't work or go to school.
The only thing he does
is to get money.
When he spends it all,
he goes home.
That boy will show up.
WATCH YOUR AIM
Thanks.
Maybe you have a little extra
so that I can take a hit, too.
- Hello.
- Hi, this is Renzo.
Do I have to turn myself in?
No. Bruno broke in
Laura's office,
and tampered with her computer.
You're right,
that bastard wants company.
I agree.
- Where's Gustavo?
- Ask them.
Police.
Bingo, boys,
now it's my turn.
- Where's Gustavo?
- What Gustavo?
Check his pockets,
maybe he's got him in there.
- No, wait.
- Where's Gustavo?
Last night he left with
some guy.
Did he look like this?
That's him.
Are you going to tell Laura?
No, not yet.
Should I keep playing
For now, yes, Marina.
Okay.
We'll talk.
STILL HEARING
YOUR MOTHERS' SCREAMS?
- Hello.
- Hi.
Everything okay?
Yeah, fine.
I was at the bar
you told me about.
- He called me.
- Who called you?
Gustavo Echevarria.
He called you?
Yeah.
What did he say?
He yelled at me and told me
to leave him alone,
that he was going on a trip,
and he hung up.
On a trip?
What trip?
I don't know, why?
It's fine.
You did what you could.
What do you mean?
Everything you could
to find him it's fine.
It's done.
- Hello.
- Son of a bitch.
I swear I didn't mean
to knock down your house.
I didn't kill my mother.
Denying reality
is not recommended.
I didn't kill her!
If it makes you feel better
to believe that, go ahead.
I was only calling you
to apologize
for your card house
and to tell you that
you are partly responsible.
You shouldn't have hidden it
from me.
I walked in, took two steps,
and it fell down.
But I swear it was not
my intention to make you suffer.
Asshole.
You can enter my house,
go through all of my drawers,
you can even kill me,
but you won't manipulate me,
never.
Never!
Why are you so upset, then?
those places
are marked in yellow,
and the bars where Gustavo goes
are marked in blue.
Don't mention Dr. Santini,
is that clear?
Don't even mention her.
You'll all get a photocopy
with all this information
including the bars
and the subject's picture.
Any questions, men?
- No, sir.
- No questions.
- Is everything clear?
- Yes, sir.
Okay, let's get to work.
- Mom, do you like my room?
- I love it, baby.
Where are you?
In Renzo's house,
he's a friend of mine.
Renzo, Nico wants to say hi.
Hey, Nico,
how are you?
Is that your dog?
It's beautiful.
His name is Shaggy.
I had one named Alonso.
Alonso?
But he was a lot smaller
than yours.
He was this big.
Well, gotta get back to work.
Bye. Nice to meet you.
Does he have the same job
as you?
No. What are you going to today?
He's terrified.
What did the doctor say?
The blood on his hands
and clothes isn't his.
He's in deep shock.
- What did he say?
- That he killed Bruno Costas.
- What else?
- That's it.
What do you mean," That's it."?
For Christ's sake.
Can I go in?
I just gave him a sedative.
- Hello, Gustavo.
- Doctor.
How are you?
I killed him because that
son of a bitch tried to kill me.
I know.
I just wanted to go out.
Of course.
I hadn't been out
in two weeks, Doctor.
If you leave, I'll kill you.
I'll kill you.
I need to know
where you were, Gustavo.
Relax, relax.
Gustavo, please.
Where were you?
I don't want to back there.
You don't have to.
You'll stay here with me,
I promise.
Where were you, please?
Hi, Marina.
We have the place.
We found Gustavo Echevarria
alive.
Gomez, I don't want anyone
to go in.
Surround the whole block first.
Sir.
- Sir!
- What?
Let her through.
What's up?
Echevarria stabbed him in the
leg with a piece of steel.
He's bleeding like a pig.
We're ready.
No, I want you to wait here.
No one's here.
He must have gotten away
in a bus or a truck.
Look at the print,
the blood ends there.
How much blood did
this bastard lose?
A lot.
Yeah?
I want a DNA comparison
with that blood
and Bruno Costas' father.
Go to the bus terminal
where this bus passes,
- see if you find anything.
- Okay, got it.
Go to all the hospitals
and spread his picture around.
Yes, Sir.
Did they find money?
No, I don't think so.
We have to wait
for the DNA results.
And if his body never turns up?
That can't happen.
Renzo?
He knows he made a mistake,
that he couldn't finish
what he started,
and that he has
very little time left.
How can screw us
after he's dead?
By making his own body
disappear.
That won't happen.
None of that will happen.
Who is it?
What happened?
An accident.
Tell me about it.
Well, he escaped
in a garbage truck,
they found some of
Costas' hairs,
now we have to wait 48 hours
for the DNA results.
They couldn't identify
the print on the truck?
What's the matter, Renzo?
An escape in a garbage truck?
For real?
Maybe he didn't want to escape,
but rather disappear.
That's his way of screwing us
after he's dead.
Yeah, it's one possibility.
What's the other one, Renzo?
We have to wait.
We have to wait.
Do you want something to drink:
tea, coffee?
Wine if you have it.
I do.
DNA SAMPLE ANALYSIS
Well done, boys.
Renzo, we found the body.
My God it's over.
What happened, honey?
It's over.
They found that bastard's
blood and body.
The analysis was positive.
Oh, God.
Oh, God.
- What about Marina?
- She'll be back tomorrow. Why?
I'd like her to work with me.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- We'll have to see.
- Okay, let's see it.
If you like, we can keep
the same schedule we had before.
Yeah, Tuesdays at 3:00 PM.
Same as the last two.
A bullet to the temple.
What kind of gun?
We'd have to wait
for the report, but
I bet it's a.38.
- Where did they find him?
- In his car, dead.
- Morini.
- Hi.
So?
Same as the cases before.
A.38 caliber bullet
to the right temple.
He's been dead
about 10 days.
Gunpowder residue test?
Came up positive.
He had gunpowder residue
on his hand.
- But no gun?
- No.
What we do know
is that it's the same gun
as in the previous cases.
- Goodbye, thank you.
- See you next time.
I've come to be cured
of my hate.
The problem is that
four people
kill themselves with the same
gun that doesn't show up.
Morini has a plausible
interpretation
about some
Russian Roulette club.
- Not a bad idea.
- No.
Do you want me to handle it?
This is Marina.
Did he die?
Due to?
Heroine overdose.
We'll talk later.
Gustavo Echevarria died.
Yeah, love?
It's been so long since
someone has said that to me.
What?
It can't be, Renzo.
It can't be!
He can't be alive!
Deep down, a human being
is like a child.
No one really believes
that a man can fly on his own,
nevertheless, thousands
and thousands of people
fill up the theaters
to watch him.
They're not stupid, eh?
No, no.
They need to believe in that,
they need to believe
that there's something more
than just their mediocre lives,
their jobs, their schedules,
their commitments.
Similar to that, Renzo
because you too are a child,
you needed to believe
that I was dead, right?
How did I do it?
It was easy,
very very easy.
I just needed a syringe,
a piece of rubber
a half a liter of blood
every 48 hours,
a body to throw you off,
and a dose of luck
to reinforce the final act.
Oh, and an smart plan,
of course.
The money?
Here it is.
Good.
I have a going away gift
for you.
Good luck and thanks.
Everything else,
absolutely everything else,
was contributed
by the three of you.
You, Marina and Laura.
And your need
for everything to end,
once and for all,
your desire to be magically,
from one day to the next,
safe from the terror.
I have very bad news
for you, Renzo--
Men do not fly
and you don't have
the slightest idea
of what horror is.
Sleep tight, Renzo.
