Ingobernable (2017) s02e03 Episode Script

The Weight of the Crown

Good morning, sir.
- Morning.
- Please, come on in.
This way, please.
- Good morning.
- María, the swimmer.
Simon, the journalist, right? Nelly, I'll let my mom know.
Hey, why are you in such a hurry? - Give me a kiss.
Give it - No.
Mom, he's here.
He's here already? Didn't I have 20 more minutes? Let's see Why do you care so much? The interview? Simon Chase is a very successful foreign journalist.
Successful? Successful.
What's wrong? Are you okay? Yes, I'm fine.
Carry on with your work.
Hey, come here.
You are what matters most to me.
You're nervous about the move, right? I know it's a big change in a short time.
Just consider this, it could be a great opportunity to change things.
It's okay, Mom.
Emilia.
I feel very privileged to be invited into the home of the prospective First Family.
Or as people say, "The change Mexico needs.
" Simon.
The privilege is mine.
It's not every day we have a Pulitzer Prize winner round.
Come with me.
- Do you mind? - Please.
I have an idea for a headline, and I would like to ask your opinion.
I think it's a little bit conceited, don't you? I suggest we dig a little bit and see if it's true.
Okay.
A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES - Chela? - Yes? "THE WEIGHT OF THE CROWN" Chela.
Ovni.
And Juventino? Come on.
My General! I hope you're here to give me an explanation.
Look.
Let's set aside aggressive emotions.
Let's think rationally, so we can talk, okay? Very well.
What proof do you have to confirm that my organization, and not yours, is responsible for Emilia Urquiza's escape? My organization is Mexico's Armed Forces.
"Mexico's Armed Forces.
" Sounds fantastic.
But I want to ask you something.
What do your soldiers die for? For honor? A couple of cents? Because I imagine you don't give them many incentives, right, General? My men are soldiers.
Really fucking poor soldiers, thanks to you.
Let me ask you: Do you think that, thanks to that need, they might be capable of selling themselves to a higher bidder? What higher bidder? If what Almada wants is to extend military power across the nation, he'll face some obstacles.
The Army is slow, heavy, big.
Every step they take is very expensive.
That's right.
And that's where my father comes in.
I've been thinking about it and I still don't understand a few things.
Look, I don't know how and since when, but I do know why.
If my father invests, it's because he knows he's gonna win.
War is a business.
And it's clear to me that my father only cares about two things: money and his legacy.
We're gonna make him confess.
Wait, Emilia.
That bastard came after you just to screw you.
And now you want to go after him? I have to do it.
- If I don't go, he won't speak.
- Wait.
You want to go see your father to see if maybe he feels like talking, so you can maybe get a confession from him, then maybe you'll blackmail him to find out where your daughter is.
Okay, yes.
But in exchange for not making that confession public, we ask him to turn all his partners in.
All of them.
I'm talking about Almada, the X-8's leader, that fucking bitch who has my daughter.
We cut off heads.
They'll grow back again.
So we find a way to cut them off at the roots.
All at once.
Look, General.
You can keep on playing emperor, or circus master, waving your flag and wearing that fucking retro uniform.
No problem.
But to maintain our deal, a deal which allows you and your organization to stay afloat, you need to get your act together.
Do you want to find yourself in such an expensive and ugly world without any friends? Okay.
Then get things under control, my General, and find Emilia Urquiza.
Now! The chances that Congress makes a decision quickly enough for the response to be effective, are very low.
Even zero.
But I have a contact in SEDENA.
He told me there's a group of generals who don't support the war against drug trafficking.
He also told me that, right now, tensions among these generals and Almada's are very high.
I think it's a good time to join them.
Do you have someone in mind? Divisional General Raúl Mejía.
I think an alliance would be very positive.
Or it could start a war.
Another one? All right.
Change your clothes.
Are you okay? I'm okay.
Rest.
You need it.
There'll be time for that later.
This is a very bad idea.
I have to talk to him.
He's my father.
He owes me an explanation.
All I'm saying is it's almost impossible for just the four of us to take on the narco-state, at least without dying in the process.
That's why the other day I said that you should go if you want to.
Go.
No, it's not that, Chela.
I want to be with you.
And we now go live to the Urquiza family home.
We're broadcasting live from the home of Tomás Urquiza.
The old geezer is on! Father of the fugitive Emilia Urquiza, alleged murderer of President Diego Nava.
We're expecting some answers from her father regarding his daughter's whereabouts.
Wait.
Get back.
Step aside.
Mr.
Urquiza, who helped Emilia escape? Where is your daughter? Mr.
Urquiza! Where is your daughter? Mr.
Urquiza! Please! Emiliano, come here.
Now.
My father gave me this letter.
And I gave it to your uncle Manuel.
Now, it's yours.
What's going to happen with my mom? Your mom is in serious trouble.
It's nobody's fault, just hers.
Do you understand? Yes.
All right.
Thank you.
Close the door behind you, please.
Is this how it'll be with her? Are you going to drop everything every time you think she needs you? The bedroom door was open.
You can go wherever you want.
- Are you hungry? - No.
Rosa.
Make her a sandwich like these, please.
I'm not hungry.
I just want to leave this fucking place.
You are a guest.
Please, it's the least we can do.
Please, have some breakfast.
- Rosa! - It wasn't her fault.
Please, let her do it.
She can do it herself.
Come, join me.
I'm not going anywhere with you.
Okay, I'll leave you alone.
Hey, do you know how we can get out of here? Leave this to me.
He's right, I can do it myself.
You'll cut yourself.
They got you real bad this time.
Thanks, Chela.
I would be dead if not for you.
Canek told me that man was important to you.
Juventino knew he could end up that way.
Canek.
Ready, guys.
Here.
This is it.
- Bring bullets.
- Yes.
MEXICO CITY 221 SOTO STREE Miss Vargas-West, the President wants to talk to you.
"She didn't even have tits and she already had a reputation.
" That's what my men told me when they found you.
 Is it true? They also told me that before all this chaos, you were good at getting some of my favorite toys in Tepito.
Then I said, "No fucking way.
If this damn orphan and dirty street rat went on to become an arms dealer, I definitely have to meet her.
" Your men are feeding you bullshit.
I'm not in that business anymore.
And I did live in the streets, but I'm not an orphan.
Now, tell me what the fuck you want.
First of all, for us be amicable.
And for you to thank me for the clothes I bought for you.
Did you like them? You're welcome.
Look, Chanya Chanja… - Zyan.
- Zyan.
Got it.
In this business you have to be intuitive.
Contrary to what people think, you don't learn intuition at school.
And someone like you, with that natural talent Natural talent? It's called being poor and hungry, you asshole.
Okay.
Someone like you knows that in order to pave the way to success, you have to negotiate, acquire, and, yes, sometimes you have to crush the competition.
But sometimes it's better to acquire it.
Do you understand? So, you want me to be your new acquisition, right? Yeah.
I don't expect it to be easy, much less cheap, but I know you still have connections in your neighborhood.
And I'm about to open a new operations center in a very strategic location for my business.
- Tepito.
- Exactly, Tepito.
I want to be very honest with you, Zyan.
I'm looking for an equity partner.
Someone local.
Someone like you who can feign otherwise.
I'm sorry.
A strategic partner means I know perfectly well what it means.
Okay.
What can you offer me in exchange? Now we're getting somewhere.
Cheers.
Do you remember that story you'd tell Diego when you were his professor in law school? The one about your uncle in Oaxaca, who left.
Because he was going to be killed.
All right.
Yes, it's fairly urgent.
Call a press conference.
- What the fuck is this man doing here? - What? Today at 6:00 p.
m.
, the President will address the country to announce a state of emergency.
The transfer of all executive power to the armed forces under my command.
Effective immediately.
I will do no such thing.
The country is on the edge of an abyss, and you are considerably discredited.
Emilia Urquiza's escape was particularly well executed.
Brilliantly planned.
And it seems that someone knew something.
Did you stop to consider what the public reaction would be? The shock this would cause You're overstepping your bounds.
So, I command you to obey me.
Get out of here immediately.
Military intelligence analysis of the events that led to Emilia Urquiza's escape suggests that the President and his Chief of Staff are, at the very least, suspects and are perhaps even guilty of treason.
If the President refuses to cooperate, he shall be arrested.
For what? For treason, and complicity and aiding an enemy of the state.
Every one of Emilia Urquiza's accomplices will be pursued and captured, and you are first on my list.
So, you decide whether you give an address from this beautiful office or if you want to join your Chief of Staff in her cell.
You can't do that, General.
Don't worry, Pepe.
He's trying to intimidate us.
Everything will be fine.
Get me a lawyer.
Prepare your speech.
What the fuck is your father doing in this area? I know where he's going.
Turn right here.
We'll get there before him this way.
A well-trained soldier knows that resisting an interrogation is bad for you.
Torture is very simple.
It starts with a pain in the shoulders, then, it goes up the neck.
Shrugging your shoulders helps, but, not for so long.
General Almada.
Can you tell me what the fuck is going on with this little piece of theater? You wanted your mole, right? We paid for all this.
Right? Starting from there and making a thorough inspection, no, my General, I can't let you kill one of our most valuable assets.
So Show's over.
C'est fini.
Lovely little soldiers, please withdraw.
General.
Can you explain to all these idiots what would happen to you, to them and their entire families, if some imbecile fires even just one tiny bullet at me? Go on.
Put your guns down.
Put your guns down and withdraw.
You too.
Now.
What is this place? It's an orphanage.
My father spent most of his childhood here.
Why did he come here? To seek forgiveness? Who are you? Pleased to meet you.
I'm Santiago.
But hot girls can call me Santi.
What do you like to be called? Ana? Or Mónica? Why did you kill Vázquez? Do you think you know everything about me because you read my file? If you really knew what's going on, you'd ask me the right questions, Santi.
And the right questions are about Almada and his unofficial relationship with Vázquez.
I wouldn't be surprised if Almada had sabotaged the plot to murder Emilia.
And why would he do something like that? So he can hold her prisoner and use her as a bargaining chip for Urquiza.
Ready.
Okay.
I have to leave, but don't worry, a five-star cab will pick you up.
Someone you'll be very pleased to see.
Yes, it's me.
The business is going well.
I think we can do it.
Hey.
Do you know where we are? I'm not allowed to speak to you.
That asshole is here.
I want a Tepicar like that.
It wouldn't be a bad idea.
Lord.
You who know everything.
You know how much I love you.
I'm listening, my son.
Father, when I arrived here, I didn't have anything.
Everything I have today, my businesses, my fortune, I built everything from scratch.
With my own hands, by myself.
In Luke 12:15, the Lord warns us, "Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
" Is that your only source of pride, Tomás? My parents are dead.
My wife is dead.
And my son is dead.
What about your daughter, Tomás? I lost her too.
I've lost everything.
- The call will be charged after the beep.
- Fucking hell.
Grandpa? Grandpa, I don't know where I am.
I'm in a very big house with someone who says she's your friend.
Please, come for me.
I don't know where the fuck I am.
There's a forest and mountains.
I don't know where I am.
I don't even know how I got here.
Please, come for me.
God is all-knowing.
Do you want His forgiveness? Yes.
I absolve you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
No, you don't deserve it.
- My daughter.
- Don't call me that.
- Okay.
- Where's María? - Where the fuck is María? - I don't know.
Why did you do it? Because when your brother was killed, I lost my mind.
I started making mistakes, making bad choices.
We were about to lose it all.
I had to look for new investors.
Which investors? Kelly Crawford? Thanks to her and her contributions, we stayed afloat.
What the fuck does she want with María? What? - To punish me.
- Why? Because I underestimated you and you screwed up her plans.
Let's go.
What does she want with María? What? She wants the last thing I have.
Urquiza Group? Tell her you'll give it to her, understand? What if I don't do it? I'll destroy you.
To all citizens of this great country Thank you for your patience.
- Turn it up, please.
- Okay.
It won't be easy to express what I'm about to say.
JOSÉ BARQUE PRESIDENT OF MEXICO And it won't be easy for you to hear it.
Our country has been taken over by dark and sinister forces.
And I can say unequivocally, that those forces, that were behind Diego Nava's murder and the incrimination of an innocent woman, Emilia Urquiza are the same that prevent me from properly fulfilling my duty as president.
Mexico deserves a peaceful and real democracy.
President Diego Nava's administration was a ray of hope for the Mexican people.
Laws proposed by President Nava through the recently leaked video are evidence of his fair leadership.
Regarding the project… that Emilia Urquiza and Diego Nava conceived for their country.
I pledge to honor the vision of President Diego Nava and Emilia Urquiza, and to enforce Diego's laws as executive orders.
The first demand is that Mexico's Armed Forces return to their bases.
Peace and democracy cannot be found in the barrel of a gun.
To the sinister forces, that have violently taken over our country, I only tell you one thing.
We the citizens will be able to defeat you.
We'll take back the peace you've taken from us, and we'll make sure justice and the rule of law prevail.
It's time for all of us to take responsibility in this fight.
I've decided to call a special and urgent election so I can step down as President of the Republic.
So, it's time to hand over this chair, the presidential chair, to the one who is endorsed with the vote of the citizens.
I need answers.
Not today.
I need you in Los Pinos.
CRAWFORD SAT PHONE OUT OF AREA VOICEMAIL Grandpa? Emilia! Quick, it's María.
Grandpa, I don't know where I am.
I'm in a very big house with someone who says she's your friend.
Please, come for me.
I don't know where the fuck I am.
There's a forest and mount Here you are, sir.
Enjoy your flight.
Is he already in the air? It's been hours and he hasn't moved a single meter.
LOW BATTERY 10% Sorry, Simon.
Family matters? - Is everything okay? - Yes.
- Shall we? - Yes.
I guess you want to talk about my father.
- Does it make you uncomfortable? - No.
I'm used to it.
"Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.
" Right? Do you mind? How about we talk about the peace plan Diego and I designed? An exclusive? I'll give you exclusive access to phase one of the plan.
We want to take the army off the streets.
We want them to go back to their bases.
