Las Chicas Del Cable (2017) s04e08 Episode Script
Chapter 32: Luck
1 [LIDIA.]
Eva! Some key moments may change your life forever.
Moments when you go all in.
Quickly.
The plane is taking off in half an hour.
[LIDIA.]
And they can make the difference between good and bad luck.
Don't be afraid, Eva.
We're going to have a really good time.
We're getting on a plane and flying through the sky.
Just like birds.
[LIDIA.]
Luck is unpredictable.
It can change in an instant.
Why are you stopping? - Keep driving.
- [LAWYER.]
I'd have to run him over.
[CARMEN.]
I don't care.
It's an order.
Keep driving! - Carmen, let the child go.
- [CARMEN.]
No.
- [FRANCISCO.]
Let her go! - Leave! Come on! I'm not leaving.
- Leave now, or I swear - What? - The child needs to be with her mother.
- Don't move.
- [CARLOS.]
Mother! Mother! - [FRANCISCO.]
It's not the child's fault.
Put the gun down.
Put the gun down! [GUNSHOT.]
- [EVA CRYING.]
- [CARMEN.]
Stop it.
No, leave the child alone.
No, don't take the child.
Leave her alone.
- Give me the child! Eva! - Eva! [EVA CRYING.]
There, there.
I'm here I'm not like this one here.
I won't hesitate.
Lidia, I should have done this a long time ago.
Life would be much better without you.
- I've lost everything because of you.
- [CARLOS.]
Mother Stop it, Mother.
Everything Son - I feel unwell, son - [GUN CLATTERS.]
[CARLOS.]
Mother! [THEME SONG PLAYING.]
A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES Are you sure of what you're doing? I have no other option, Francisco.
Carmen will never give up.
Eva is her only hope.
But now that Carlos knows what his mother intended, he won't allow her to come close.
Every time I trust Carlos, he ends up lying to me.
Yeah You know he's so manipulable, especially by his mother.
Francisco, it's hard for me as well but it'll be for a short time.
I need to get Eva far away from Carmen.
And if that means I have to get her away from Carlos, too [EVA BABBLING.]
- Madam, everything is ready.
- Thank you, Asunción.
Let's go.
The car is waiting.
- Are you coming with Mom? - [ASUNCIÃN.]
Yes.
- [EVA.]
Mommy.
- Come on.
[SIGHS.]
CHAPTER 32: LUCK Come on, sweetie.
Look, there it is.
Asunción, hold her.
Don't let anyone get close to her.
Please, look after her.
Don't worry, madam.
Everything will be all right.
I'll be extremely cautious.
I won't let anyone take her from me again.
Eva! Eva, my love.
You listen to Asunción and do everything she says.
You hear me? She's taking you to a beautiful place.
So beautiful.
In a couple of days, I'll be there.
Mom will be with you.
I promise.
- I love you.
- [EVA.]
Mommy.
Get in the car.
[EVA CRYING.]
- Mommy, I want to stay with you.
- [LIDIA SOBS.]
Yeah.
[CAR DOOR CLOSES.]
Here's all the money you'll need.
Don't stop until you get to Lisbon.
- [DRIVER.]
Yes, ma'am.
- Remember where you're meeting Victoria? [DRIVER.]
Yes, madam.
Good.
Be careful.
[ENGINE STARTS.]
- Sorry I'm late.
Miss.
- [CUEVAS.]
I was worried.
Have you learned anything new? She's in solitary confinement, the most heavily guarded area in the prison.
There are three guards watching the entire area.
Three guards? And they don't change posts at any time? Never.
They stay there until their shift is over.
No exceptions.
It's going to be extremely difficult.
Especially considering Sara is being executed in three days.
Unless, of course somebody or something compromised security at the prison.
A riot? - A riot would compromise all the security.
- Exactly.
We'll need some inmates to help us put this together.
I know someone inside.
Her name is Maite Serrano.
Candy.
Sure, I know her.
You and I both know that inmates do nothing for free.
Well, leave it to me.
Hmm? [ABEL.]
The other inmates respect her.
I don't know, Cuevas It's dangerous, but I can't think of any other inmate capable of organizing a riot.
You forget that woman works for Mirlo, and she's dangerous.
I'm well aware, but, please, let me talk to her.
I'll request a visit.
Hmm? A face-to-face visit in the prison.
Do I know you? [ÃNGELES.]
Mm-hmm.
More than you think.
Please, sit down.
- [CANDY.]
I thought it was someone else.
- Do you know Mirlo? What do you know about that? - I'm Mirlo.
- What? Don't play me for a fool.
[WHISPERING.]
When Guzmán was arrested, I took over the organization, and I pretended to be a man to gain respect.
Your husband was my contact to extort the marquis of Vargas.
I know the police are after your husband in an attempt to find me.
And I also know you're covering for him to protect him.
- You fooled us all.
- No one can know about this.
What do you want from me? I need you to help me organize a riot.
A riot? You're out of your mind.
- I'd be risking ten more years in prison.
- Right.
Only if they catch you.
What I'm proposing is that you break out with us and that you take charge of Mirlo's business.
That woman must be really important to you.
Very.
To me and my friends.
All right.
Let's organize a riot.
Have you planned a way to do it? - [DOCTOR.]
Mr.
Cifuentes? - I'm his sister, Elisa Cifuentes.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
- How is she? - She's better, but her health is fragile.
She just woke up, and asked about you.
You may see her now.
My children My kids, I knew you wouldn't turn your backs on me.
Family is the most important thing.
- Eva Is she all right? - [CARLOS.]
Stop pretending you care.
You only wanted to use her for your treatment.
I'm so sorry I lied to you, really.
But if you think this means that I feel no love for my granddaughter, you are wrong.
The treatment will not harm the child.
- However, it would mean so much for me - Unbelievable.
Even on your deathbed, you try to manipulate us, as you always have.
- [CARMEN.]
Elisa, please - Elisa is right.
You've ruined my life.
Because of you, I've done things that I regret.
Because of you, I have lost Lidia Be a man! I want no son of mine to be such a coward.
You are dead to me.
You are already dead.
[LIDIA.]
Each person has to make their own luck.
Carmen, with her actions, had driven her children away.
Now, it was our time.
While we headed towards the prison, I was thinking that it wasn't the first time we all risked our lives.
And together, we had always overcome all obstacles.
[CUEVAS SIGHS.]
It's here.
Hold this.
This is the spot.
It connects directly with the laundry room.
How thick is it? Like 100 centimeters? This isn't going to be easy, Cuevas.
Well nobody said it was going to be easy.
Move aside.
[LIDIA.]
Up until now, luck had been on our side.
The question was, would it be on our side that night, too? Come what may, we were about to find out.
Good evening, Officer.
We're with the theater troupe.
The rest of my colleagues are still unloading our materials.
[GUARD.]
Stretch your arms out.
[DOOR OPENS.]
Identification.
The trunk.
Open it.
You may go in.
[LIDIA.]
We had managed to get part of our plan to succeed.
[AGUSTÃN.]
AgustÃn Montes, warden of Ventas prison.
This is Abel Cano, from the Department of Reintegration Activities.
And you're the person with whom I closed the deal with your troupe, right? - Mister - Federico.
Nice to meet you.
I am grateful you've offered to replace the previous troupe on such short notice.
No need, it is our honor.
Everyone in this troupe believes that culture can transform the world.
No doubt.
We've done ten performances, which had great success among inmates.
[AGUSTÃN.]
Everything is ready and waiting for you to set your stage.
If you need my men to lend you a hand No, don't worry.
In this troupe, we do everything ourselves.
Mind you, we'll need some place to leave our props - and get ready for the performance.
- Of course.
- You haven't told me what play it will be.
- Life Is a Dream.
"And even dreams themselves are dreams.
" Calderón de la Barca.
[CHUCKLING.]
[FEDERICO.]
Shall we? If there is anything you need, Abel will provide it.
Of course.
I'm at your disposal.
Thank you.
[DOOR OPENS.]
[DOOR CLOSES.]
- Did you see the warden's keys? - Will you be able to get hold of them? Yes, I think so.
Yes.
Does Candy know what the signal to start the riot is? Yes, don't worry.
We just need to avoid drawing attention.
- Let's go help them.
- [LIDIA.]
Let's go.
[FEDERICO.]
Excuse me, could you take this backstage, please? Girls! We're almost ready.
The crowd is about to come in.
How do you feel? - [ÃNGELES.]
Good.
- Nervous.
I'll go get the warden.
[LIDIA.]
The die was cast.
That was the beginning of the end.
Once again, we were at a crossroads that was to be decisive in our lives but we didn't know that, this time, everything would change forever.
Have them sit down.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
We always like the theater manager to say a few words before the crowd.
This is far from being a theater, but if you insist, I'll be honored.
Though I actually don't - [KEYS RATTLE.]
- [GASPS.]
Forgive me, I'm sorry.
Aren't you performing in the play? I'm an understudy.
Yes, um Unless something unexpected happens, I just help with the props.
[CHUCKLES.]
That's a shame.
I'm sure you are a really good actress.
Thank you for the compliment, but I'm an understudy for a reason.
I can assure you this troupe has top-tier actors.
Well, don't lose faith.
If acting is your dream, you have to persevere.
Perhaps the next time you're here, I can see you onstage.
[INMATES WHISTLING.]
It seems they're calling you.
[INMATES CHANTING.]
Let it start, or the audience will leave! - Let it start, or the audience will leave! - [KEYS JINGLE.]
- Let it start! - [INMATES SHUSHING.]
[AGUSTÃN.]
Welcome! We're so honored to have such a fabulous theater troupe with us today.
Their reputation and quality are well-known, and their work bringing these plays to the furthest places is truly praiseworthy.
For this reason, I appreciate your involvement.
[LIDIA WHISPERING.]
These are the keys.
Abel said it's the one shaped like a hexagon.
[MARGA.]
This one.
Yes, here it is.
Why are you taking it out? We can take them all with us! No, if the warden notices they're missing, he'll raise the alarm.
- We have to put them back.
- All right, let's go.
- [ÃNGELES.]
It's - Come on, Ãngeles! - Ãngeles, for God's sake! - I can't! Don't push me! But I don't want to expand much longer.
I just want to tell you that I hope - [CARLOTA.]
Let me try! - [ÃNGELES.]
I can't! Girls, he's almost done.
- Done.
Here, take it.
- [LIDIA.]
Give it to me.
enjoy this great play and have a good evening.
[INMATES APPLAUDING.]
Mr.
Warden.
Congratulations on your speech.
It was fantastic.
- It was wonderful, really.
- [KEYS RATTLE.]
- Thank you very much.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Yeah.
- Ah! And break a leg! - What? That's what you tell actors to wish them good luck, isn't it? - Yes, it is.
Thank you.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE.]
[INMATES APPLAUDING.]
[DOOR UNLOCKS AND OPENS.]
You haven't eaten.
I need to talk to the warden.
- I've been framed.
Help me, please! - Don't be in such a hurry to get out.
- Your next destination is the garrote.
- No No No.
No.
No.
No.
[SOBBING.]
No! No! No! No, please! No No What's that noise? [ACTRESS.]
What can it be? From the besieged palace, an armed squadron is making a sortie, to resist and overcome fierce Segismundo's.
[GASPS.]
Then why am I standing here like a coward and not at his side, like a shock to the world, now that so much cruelty is closing in without order or system? Long live our freedom! Long live freedom! - Hurrah! Hurrah! - Let's go.
- [FEDERICO.]
Hurrah! - [CANDY.]
Hurrah! Hurrah! - [INMATES.]
Hurrah! - Long live freedom! Down with chains! Fellow inmates, let's show them that no one can take our freedom from us! - Good luck! - [INMATES.]
Hurrah! - Riot! Riot! - [INMATES CHANTING.]
Riot! - [AGUSTÃN.]
Who organized this? - [INMATES.]
Riot! Riot! - Sit down at once! - [INMATES.]
Riot! Riot! Shut them up! [INMATES CHANTING.]
Riot! Riot! Riot! [CHANTING CONTINUES.]
- [AGUSTÃN.]
What's going on in here? - I don't know.
Lead your men.
Are you crazy? - Carlota, good luck.
- Thank you.
[INMATE.]
Riot! Long live freedom! [CHANTING CONTINUES.]
[GUARD GRUNTING.]
[INMATES.]
Riot! Riot! Riot! - [AGUSTÃN.]
Guards! - [INMATES.]
Riot! Riot! Riot! Riot! Riot! Solitary confinement is that way.
[INMATE 1.]
There's a riot in the courtyard! Come out, everyone! [INMATE 2.]
Let's go get them! [INMATES CLAMORING.]
Let's go! Let's go! Come on! Run! [ÃNGELES SCREAMS.]
[CLAMORING IN DISTANCE.]
[FRANCISCO WHISPERS.]
Watch out! Marga, stay by the door.
Let us know if someone comes.
- All right.
- Let's use the commotion - and be quick.
- Yes.
Be careful, all right? I will.
[TOOLS CLATTERING.]
Help me! Come on.
Here.
[TAPPING.]
[MEN DIGGING AND GRUNTING.]
[CUEVAS.]
Shh.
- [TAPPING IN DISTANCE.]
- Did you hear that? [ELÃAS.]
Yeah.
Ah Did you hear that? On this spot.
[GRUNTING.]
What are you doing? - Huh? - Huh? - Come on, chip it! - Yes, yes! [BOTH GRUNTING.]
[LIDIA.]
With our plan up and running, luck was put aside.
Our actions would determine Ãscar's fate.
We had to fight for what is fair or remain among the unfair.
[LIDIA.]
Shh.
Solitary confinement is over there.
[CARLOTA.]
Why are those guards there? Shouldn't they be at the courtyard? [ÃNGELES.]
What are we going to do now? [ABEL.]
There's a riot in the main courtyard! What are you waiting for? Hurry up! [LIDIA.]
Fortunately, some honest people were fighting on our side.
- Let's go! Come on.
- [ABEL.]
She's in here.
You have the key? - [LIDIA.]
Yes.
- [ABEL.]
Quiet.
- Ãscar! - [ÃSCAR.]
Carlota! - How are you? - I'm fine.
- You sure? - Yes.
- Are you sure? - I'm so glad to see you [ABEL.]
What are you doing here? [GUARD.]
I have orders to stay here.
You may go.
- I'm sure they need - [GUARD.]
Why is the door open? - Stop right there! - [GUN COCKING.]
[BOTH GRUNT.]
- We need to leave now! Let's go! - Let's go.
- Thank you, Abel.
- Leave already.
Hurry up! Come on.
- You're here.
- Yes.
- Come on! - Come on.
Come on.
[LIDIA.]
This way.
Headquarters, we need backup.
Come on, girls, this way.
Follow me.
- Thank you, Maite.
- Thank me when this is all over.
Marga! - There she is.
- [MARGA.]
Ãscar! [CANDY.]
Come on, let's go.
Go.
- [LIDIA.]
We're ready.
How about you? - We're almost there.
[ALARM SOUNDING.]
- What is that? - They've sounded the alarm.
They are requesting external backup.
Come on! Come on.
- Go to the door and keep an eye out.
- [MARGA.]
Yes.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
Listen! Reinforcements are on their way.
If you drop your weapons now, I guarantee nothing will happen to you.
Go get them.
[DOOR OPENS.]
[OFFICER.]
Search all the cells and rooms! The police are coming! We need to hurry up.
We need to block the entrance.
Come on.
Let's push this one.
Push.
[FRANCISCO.]
We're almost done! Come on! [CUEVAS.]
We're almost there.
- I see a light.
ElÃas! - [ELÃAS.]
What? [CUEVAS.]
Hold this.
[DIGGING.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[FRANCISCO.]
Cuevas? [CUEVAS.]
This way! - [CUEVAS.]
This way! - [FRANCISCO.]
It's done! Come on, girls! [LIDIA.]
There.
There [FRANCISCO.]
Come on! Quick! Hurry up! Let's go! Careful.
Move, move! Come on, hurry up! [THUDDING.]
[ALARM SOUNDING.]
Come on! Move! [CUEVAS.]
Come on.
- [ELÃAS.]
Let's get out of here.
- [FLACO.]
Go! Go! [OFFICER.]
Halt, or I'll shoot! - [ÃNGELES SCREAMING.]
- [BULLETS RICOCHET.]
Cristóbal! Help! [OFFICER.]
We need backup.
It's too dangerous.
Move! [MARGA.]
Wait! Where are Ãngeles and Cuevas? - Let's leave now! We'll end up in prison! - [LIDIA.]
We have to wait.
[CUEVAS.]
Ãngeles! Are you all right? [ÃNGELES BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
Let me see.
I'm hit.
[GROANING.]
It's okay.
We're making it out of here.
No [BREATHING HEAVILY.]
I'm not making it out of here.
Of course we are.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Cristóbal, I need a favor.
I saved some money for my mother and my daughter.
[GROANS.]
It's in the Central Bank, in a safe-deposit box.
You can open it with this key.
No, don't leave me, Ãngeles.
[GROANS.]
Hold on [GROANING AND CRYING.]
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING.]
Cristóbal I want you to know that I am Mirlo.
What? I didn't tell you because I was afraid you wouldn't love me anymore.
I could never stop loving you.
Never.
[ÃNGELES GROANS.]
- [MARGA.]
Ãngeles - [LIDIA.]
Ãngeles! What happened? - [MARGA.]
Ãngeles - [LIDIA.]
Ãngeles, what happened? What happened? - Ãngeles, what's wrong? - What happened? - Ãngeles - [ÃNGELES GROANS.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
My daughter Promise me that, if anything happens to her, - you'll be there for her.
- Of course we will.
- Always.
- [ÃNGELES.]
Because I hope she finds friends as good as you.
Don't say that.
Thank you.
Thanks to you, I had a second chance.
[MARGA SOBBING.]
[ÃNGELES.]
Thank you.
- Ãngeles! - Ãngeles Ãngeles! Look at me! Ãngeles! Look at me! [LIDIA.]
Ãngeles! - Ãngeles! Please! - [CARLOTA.]
Ãngeles! Ãngeles! Please! Please [ALL SOBBING.]
Please [LIDIA.]
We never imagined one of us could have such an awful end.
At that moment, we all felt luck abandoning us and a black cloud hovering over our destiny.
[DOOR CLOSES.]
The die seemed to have been cast for us, and we all had to take drastic measures to escape a fateful destiny.
I'm sorry, Carlos, but as long as your mother lives, our daughter is in grave danger.
For this reason, I've been forced to make a painful choice.
I'm taking her away from your mother, to America.
I need a fresh start, to get away from the pain I'm feeling.
When we are settled, I'll write again so you can stay in contact with Eva.
And when it's not dangerous anymore, you'll see her again.
I don't intend to hurt you, but you need to see that Carmen always manipulated you, taking advantage of you, of your kindness.
And, Carlos, being a good son is keeping you from becoming the father Eva needs.
I'm only trying to keep our daughter away from the danger your mother poses.
I hope you understand me.
- Lidia.
- [BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[SNIFFLES.]
[EXHALES HEAVILY.]
[LIDIA.]
Luck had played a dirty trick on us, and we had to face it the best way we could, playing the cards we had been dealt, even if our hearts were shattered.
[INAUDIBLE.]
Even though we felt everything was lost, we never ceased repeating to ourselves that the last step of bad luck is the first step to good luck.
[SOBBING.]
[LIDIA.]
The bad luck that was forcing us to part ways.
After all our sacrifices, we couldn't afford to be caught by the police.
We needed to disappear for a while.
Start a new life, away from the others.
SUÃREZ AND SANTOS BUSINESS CONSULTANCY Start a new project away from the company that had brought us together.
The idea was to look forward, as Ãngeles would have wanted even though in such a terrible moment, not being able to be together was the worst possible luck.
What none of us could know then was that, years later, Ãngeles' daughter would bring us back together.
And this time, we would be forced to face the greatest of tragedies the Civil War.
["MY NIGHT" BY BEKUH BOOM PLAYING.]
Eva! Some key moments may change your life forever.
Moments when you go all in.
Quickly.
The plane is taking off in half an hour.
[LIDIA.]
And they can make the difference between good and bad luck.
Don't be afraid, Eva.
We're going to have a really good time.
We're getting on a plane and flying through the sky.
Just like birds.
[LIDIA.]
Luck is unpredictable.
It can change in an instant.
Why are you stopping? - Keep driving.
- [LAWYER.]
I'd have to run him over.
[CARMEN.]
I don't care.
It's an order.
Keep driving! - Carmen, let the child go.
- [CARMEN.]
No.
- [FRANCISCO.]
Let her go! - Leave! Come on! I'm not leaving.
- Leave now, or I swear - What? - The child needs to be with her mother.
- Don't move.
- [CARLOS.]
Mother! Mother! - [FRANCISCO.]
It's not the child's fault.
Put the gun down.
Put the gun down! [GUNSHOT.]
- [EVA CRYING.]
- [CARMEN.]
Stop it.
No, leave the child alone.
No, don't take the child.
Leave her alone.
- Give me the child! Eva! - Eva! [EVA CRYING.]
There, there.
I'm here I'm not like this one here.
I won't hesitate.
Lidia, I should have done this a long time ago.
Life would be much better without you.
- I've lost everything because of you.
- [CARLOS.]
Mother Stop it, Mother.
Everything Son - I feel unwell, son - [GUN CLATTERS.]
[CARLOS.]
Mother! [THEME SONG PLAYING.]
A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES Are you sure of what you're doing? I have no other option, Francisco.
Carmen will never give up.
Eva is her only hope.
But now that Carlos knows what his mother intended, he won't allow her to come close.
Every time I trust Carlos, he ends up lying to me.
Yeah You know he's so manipulable, especially by his mother.
Francisco, it's hard for me as well but it'll be for a short time.
I need to get Eva far away from Carmen.
And if that means I have to get her away from Carlos, too [EVA BABBLING.]
- Madam, everything is ready.
- Thank you, Asunción.
Let's go.
The car is waiting.
- Are you coming with Mom? - [ASUNCIÃN.]
Yes.
- [EVA.]
Mommy.
- Come on.
[SIGHS.]
CHAPTER 32: LUCK Come on, sweetie.
Look, there it is.
Asunción, hold her.
Don't let anyone get close to her.
Please, look after her.
Don't worry, madam.
Everything will be all right.
I'll be extremely cautious.
I won't let anyone take her from me again.
Eva! Eva, my love.
You listen to Asunción and do everything she says.
You hear me? She's taking you to a beautiful place.
So beautiful.
In a couple of days, I'll be there.
Mom will be with you.
I promise.
- I love you.
- [EVA.]
Mommy.
Get in the car.
[EVA CRYING.]
- Mommy, I want to stay with you.
- [LIDIA SOBS.]
Yeah.
[CAR DOOR CLOSES.]
Here's all the money you'll need.
Don't stop until you get to Lisbon.
- [DRIVER.]
Yes, ma'am.
- Remember where you're meeting Victoria? [DRIVER.]
Yes, madam.
Good.
Be careful.

- How is she? - She's better, but her health is fragile.
She just woke up, and asked about you.
You may see her now.
My children My kids, I knew you wouldn't turn your backs on me.
Family is the most important thing.
- Eva Is she all right? - [CARLOS.]
Stop pretending you care.
You only wanted to use her for your treatment.
I'm so sorry I lied to you, really.
But if you think this means that I feel no love for my granddaughter, you are wrong.
The treatment will not harm the child.
- However, it would mean so much for me - Unbelievable.
Even on your deathbed, you try to manipulate us, as you always have.
- [CARMEN.]
Elisa, please - Elisa is right.
You've ruined my life.
Because of you, I've done things that I regret.
Because of you, I have lost Lidia Be a man! I want no son of mine to be such a coward.
You are dead to me.
You are already dead.
[LIDIA.]
Each person has to make their own luck.
Carmen, with her actions, had driven her children away.
Now, it was our time.
While we headed towards the prison, I was thinking that it wasn't the first time we all risked our lives.
And together, we had always overcome all obstacles.
[CUEVAS SIGHS.]
It's here.
Hold this.
This is the spot.
It connects directly with the laundry room.
How thick is it? Like 100 centimeters? This isn't going to be easy, Cuevas.
Well nobody said it was going to be easy.
Move aside.
[LIDIA.]
Up until now, luck had been on our side.
The question was, would it be on our side that night, too? Come what may, we were about to find out.
Good evening, Officer.
We're with the theater troupe.
The rest of my colleagues are still unloading our materials.
[GUARD.]
Stretch your arms out.
[DOOR OPENS.]
Identification.
The trunk.
Open it.
You may go in.
[LIDIA.]
We had managed to get part of our plan to succeed.
[AGUSTÃN.]
AgustÃn Montes, warden of Ventas prison.
This is Abel Cano, from the Department of Reintegration Activities.
And you're the person with whom I closed the deal with your troupe, right? - Mister - Federico.
Nice to meet you.
I am grateful you've offered to replace the previous troupe on such short notice.
No need, it is our honor.
Everyone in this troupe believes that culture can transform the world.
No doubt.
We've done ten performances, which had great success among inmates.
[AGUSTÃN.]
Everything is ready and waiting for you to set your stage.
If you need my men to lend you a hand No, don't worry.
In this troupe, we do everything ourselves.
Mind you, we'll need some place to leave our props - and get ready for the performance.
- Of course.
- You haven't told me what play it will be.
- Life Is a Dream.
"And even dreams themselves are dreams.
" Calderón de la Barca.
[CHUCKLING.]
[FEDERICO.]
Shall we? If there is anything you need, Abel will provide it.
Of course.
I'm at your disposal.
Thank you.
[DOOR OPENS.]
[DOOR CLOSES.]
- Did you see the warden's keys? - Will you be able to get hold of them? Yes, I think so.
Yes.
Does Candy know what the signal to start the riot is? Yes, don't worry.
We just need to avoid drawing attention.
- Let's go help them.
- [LIDIA.]
Let's go.
[FEDERICO.]
Excuse me, could you take this backstage, please? Girls! We're almost ready.
The crowd is about to come in.
How do you feel? - [ÃNGELES.]
Good.
- Nervous.
I'll go get the warden.
[LIDIA.]
The die was cast.
That was the beginning of the end.
Once again, we were at a crossroads that was to be decisive in our lives but we didn't know that, this time, everything would change forever.
Have them sit down.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
We always like the theater manager to say a few words before the crowd.
This is far from being a theater, but if you insist, I'll be honored.
Though I actually don't - [KEYS RATTLE.]
- [GASPS.]
Forgive me, I'm sorry.
Aren't you performing in the play? I'm an understudy.
Yes, um Unless something unexpected happens, I just help with the props.
[CHUCKLES.]
That's a shame.
I'm sure you are a really good actress.
Thank you for the compliment, but I'm an understudy for a reason.
I can assure you this troupe has top-tier actors.
Well, don't lose faith.
If acting is your dream, you have to persevere.
Perhaps the next time you're here, I can see you onstage.
[INMATES WHISTLING.]
It seems they're calling you.
[INMATES CHANTING.]
Let it start, or the audience will leave! - Let it start, or the audience will leave! - [KEYS JINGLE.]
- Let it start! - [INMATES SHUSHING.]
[AGUSTÃN.]
Welcome! We're so honored to have such a fabulous theater troupe with us today.
Their reputation and quality are well-known, and their work bringing these plays to the furthest places is truly praiseworthy.
For this reason, I appreciate your involvement.
[LIDIA WHISPERING.]
These are the keys.
Abel said it's the one shaped like a hexagon.
[MARGA.]
This one.
Yes, here it is.
Why are you taking it out? We can take them all with us! No, if the warden notices they're missing, he'll raise the alarm.
- We have to put them back.
- All right, let's go.
- [ÃNGELES.]
It's - Come on, Ãngeles! - Ãngeles, for God's sake! - I can't! Don't push me! But I don't want to expand much longer.
I just want to tell you that I hope - [CARLOTA.]
Let me try! - [ÃNGELES.]
I can't! Girls, he's almost done.
- Done.
Here, take it.
- [LIDIA.]
Give it to me.
enjoy this great play and have a good evening.
[INMATES APPLAUDING.]
Mr.
Warden.
Congratulations on your speech.
It was fantastic.
- It was wonderful, really.
- [KEYS RATTLE.]
- Thank you very much.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Yeah.
- Ah! And break a leg! - What? That's what you tell actors to wish them good luck, isn't it? - Yes, it is.
Thank you.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE.]
[INMATES APPLAUDING.]
[DOOR UNLOCKS AND OPENS.]
You haven't eaten.
I need to talk to the warden.
- I've been framed.
Help me, please! - Don't be in such a hurry to get out.
- Your next destination is the garrote.
- No No No.
No.
No.
No.
[SOBBING.]
No! No! No! No, please! No No What's that noise? [ACTRESS.]
What can it be? From the besieged palace, an armed squadron is making a sortie, to resist and overcome fierce Segismundo's.
[GASPS.]
Then why am I standing here like a coward and not at his side, like a shock to the world, now that so much cruelty is closing in without order or system? Long live our freedom! Long live freedom! - Hurrah! Hurrah! - Let's go.
- [FEDERICO.]
Hurrah! - [CANDY.]
Hurrah! Hurrah! - [INMATES.]
Hurrah! - Long live freedom! Down with chains! Fellow inmates, let's show them that no one can take our freedom from us! - Good luck! - [INMATES.]
Hurrah! - Riot! Riot! - [INMATES CHANTING.]
Riot! - [AGUSTÃN.]
Who organized this? - [INMATES.]
Riot! Riot! - Sit down at once! - [INMATES.]
Riot! Riot! Shut them up! [INMATES CHANTING.]
Riot! Riot! Riot! [CHANTING CONTINUES.]
- [AGUSTÃN.]
What's going on in here? - I don't know.
Lead your men.
Are you crazy? - Carlota, good luck.
- Thank you.
[INMATE.]
Riot! Long live freedom! [CHANTING CONTINUES.]
[GUARD GRUNTING.]
[INMATES.]
Riot! Riot! Riot! - [AGUSTÃN.]
Guards! - [INMATES.]
Riot! Riot! Riot! Riot! Riot! Solitary confinement is that way.
[INMATE 1.]
There's a riot in the courtyard! Come out, everyone! [INMATE 2.]
Let's go get them! [INMATES CLAMORING.]
Let's go! Let's go! Come on! Run! [ÃNGELES SCREAMS.]
[CLAMORING IN DISTANCE.]
[FRANCISCO WHISPERS.]
Watch out! Marga, stay by the door.
Let us know if someone comes.
- All right.
- Let's use the commotion - and be quick.
- Yes.
Be careful, all right? I will.
[TOOLS CLATTERING.]
Help me! Come on.
Here.
[TAPPING.]
[MEN DIGGING AND GRUNTING.]
[CUEVAS.]
Shh.
- [TAPPING IN DISTANCE.]
- Did you hear that? [ELÃAS.]
Yeah.
Ah Did you hear that? On this spot.
[GRUNTING.]
What are you doing? - Huh? - Huh? - Come on, chip it! - Yes, yes! [BOTH GRUNTING.]
[LIDIA.]
With our plan up and running, luck was put aside.
Our actions would determine Ãscar's fate.
We had to fight for what is fair or remain among the unfair.
[LIDIA.]
Shh.
Solitary confinement is over there.
[CARLOTA.]
Why are those guards there? Shouldn't they be at the courtyard? [ÃNGELES.]
What are we going to do now? [ABEL.]
There's a riot in the main courtyard! What are you waiting for? Hurry up! [LIDIA.]
Fortunately, some honest people were fighting on our side.
- Let's go! Come on.
- [ABEL.]
She's in here.
You have the key? - [LIDIA.]
Yes.
- [ABEL.]
Quiet.
- Ãscar! - [ÃSCAR.]
Carlota! - How are you? - I'm fine.
- You sure? - Yes.
- Are you sure? - I'm so glad to see you [ABEL.]
What are you doing here? [GUARD.]
I have orders to stay here.
You may go.
- I'm sure they need - [GUARD.]
Why is the door open? - Stop right there! - [GUN COCKING.]
[BOTH GRUNT.]
- We need to leave now! Let's go! - Let's go.
- Thank you, Abel.
- Leave already.
Hurry up! Come on.
- You're here.
- Yes.
- Come on! - Come on.
Come on.
[LIDIA.]
This way.
Headquarters, we need backup.
Come on, girls, this way.
Follow me.
- Thank you, Maite.
- Thank me when this is all over.
Marga! - There she is.
- [MARGA.]
Ãscar! [CANDY.]
Come on, let's go.
Go.
- [LIDIA.]
We're ready.
How about you? - We're almost there.
[ALARM SOUNDING.]
- What is that? - They've sounded the alarm.
They are requesting external backup.
Come on! Come on.
- Go to the door and keep an eye out.
- [MARGA.]
Yes.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
Listen! Reinforcements are on their way.
If you drop your weapons now, I guarantee nothing will happen to you.
Go get them.
[DOOR OPENS.]
[OFFICER.]
Search all the cells and rooms! The police are coming! We need to hurry up.
We need to block the entrance.
Come on.
Let's push this one.
Push.
[FRANCISCO.]
We're almost done! Come on! [CUEVAS.]
We're almost there.
- I see a light.
ElÃas! - [ELÃAS.]
What? [CUEVAS.]
Hold this.
[DIGGING.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[FRANCISCO.]
Cuevas? [CUEVAS.]
This way! - [CUEVAS.]
This way! - [FRANCISCO.]
It's done! Come on, girls! [LIDIA.]
There.
There [FRANCISCO.]
Come on! Quick! Hurry up! Let's go! Careful.
Move, move! Come on, hurry up! [THUDDING.]
[ALARM SOUNDING.]
Come on! Move! [CUEVAS.]
Come on.
- [ELÃAS.]
Let's get out of here.
- [FLACO.]
Go! Go! [OFFICER.]
Halt, or I'll shoot! - [ÃNGELES SCREAMING.]
- [BULLETS RICOCHET.]
Cristóbal! Help! [OFFICER.]
We need backup.
It's too dangerous.
Move! [MARGA.]
Wait! Where are Ãngeles and Cuevas? - Let's leave now! We'll end up in prison! - [LIDIA.]
We have to wait.
[CUEVAS.]
Ãngeles! Are you all right? [ÃNGELES BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
Let me see.
I'm hit.
[GROANING.]
It's okay.
We're making it out of here.
No [BREATHING HEAVILY.]
I'm not making it out of here.
Of course we are.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Cristóbal, I need a favor.
I saved some money for my mother and my daughter.
[GROANS.]
It's in the Central Bank, in a safe-deposit box.
You can open it with this key.
No, don't leave me, Ãngeles.
[GROANS.]
Hold on [GROANING AND CRYING.]
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING.]
Cristóbal I want you to know that I am Mirlo.
What? I didn't tell you because I was afraid you wouldn't love me anymore.
I could never stop loving you.
Never.
[ÃNGELES GROANS.]
- [MARGA.]
Ãngeles - [LIDIA.]
Ãngeles! What happened? - [MARGA.]
Ãngeles - [LIDIA.]
Ãngeles, what happened? What happened? - Ãngeles, what's wrong? - What happened? - Ãngeles - [ÃNGELES GROANS.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
My daughter Promise me that, if anything happens to her, - you'll be there for her.
- Of course we will.
- Always.
- [ÃNGELES.]
Because I hope she finds friends as good as you.
Don't say that.
Thank you.
Thanks to you, I had a second chance.
[MARGA SOBBING.]
[ÃNGELES.]
Thank you.
- Ãngeles! - Ãngeles Ãngeles! Look at me! Ãngeles! Look at me! [LIDIA.]
Ãngeles! - Ãngeles! Please! - [CARLOTA.]
Ãngeles! Ãngeles! Please! Please [ALL SOBBING.]
Please [LIDIA.]
We never imagined one of us could have such an awful end.
At that moment, we all felt luck abandoning us and a black cloud hovering over our destiny.
[DOOR CLOSES.]
The die seemed to have been cast for us, and we all had to take drastic measures to escape a fateful destiny.
I'm sorry, Carlos, but as long as your mother lives, our daughter is in grave danger.
For this reason, I've been forced to make a painful choice.
I'm taking her away from your mother, to America.
I need a fresh start, to get away from the pain I'm feeling.
When we are settled, I'll write again so you can stay in contact with Eva.
And when it's not dangerous anymore, you'll see her again.
I don't intend to hurt you, but you need to see that Carmen always manipulated you, taking advantage of you, of your kindness.
And, Carlos, being a good son is keeping you from becoming the father Eva needs.
I'm only trying to keep our daughter away from the danger your mother poses.
I hope you understand me.
- Lidia.
- [BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[SNIFFLES.]
[EXHALES HEAVILY.]
[LIDIA.]
Luck had played a dirty trick on us, and we had to face it the best way we could, playing the cards we had been dealt, even if our hearts were shattered.
[INAUDIBLE.]
Even though we felt everything was lost, we never ceased repeating to ourselves that the last step of bad luck is the first step to good luck.
[SOBBING.]
[LIDIA.]
The bad luck that was forcing us to part ways.
After all our sacrifices, we couldn't afford to be caught by the police.
We needed to disappear for a while.
Start a new life, away from the others.
SUÃREZ AND SANTOS BUSINESS CONSULTANCY Start a new project away from the company that had brought us together.
The idea was to look forward, as Ãngeles would have wanted even though in such a terrible moment, not being able to be together was the worst possible luck.
What none of us could know then was that, years later, Ãngeles' daughter would bring us back together.
And this time, we would be forced to face the greatest of tragedies the Civil War.
