Bia (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 13 - Episodio 13 - full transcript

Following Carmin's advice, Alex posts a mock video about Bia's situation, causing her to start receiving thousands of offensive reviews and comments on her personal profile. Because of this, Manuel decides to offer support to his ...

-Did you talk to Alex?
-I did more than that.

I helped him make a video
to show his vulnerable side.

It's not bad, but you need
more emotion, more intensity.

-What's that?
-It's a little trick to help you cry.

A girl with that kind of light inside
wouldn't hurt anybody on purpose.

You speak as if you knew her.

Delete that video right now.

I don't get it, Bia. What's wrong with it?

It's personal. I can't explain it.

CELESTE: Has everybody gone mad?

PIXIE: They're upset
because of Carmín's video.



Even several web stars commented
and joined the hashtag against Bia.

I know how you feel.
I went through something similar once.

-Hi.
-Hi.

What were you watching?

♪ This is what I am ♪

-What were you watching?
-What?



What were you watching?

Uh...

Nothing important.

-All right. I believe you.
-Me too.

I mean, regarding the video about Alex.

Oh.

Yes, I don't know
why they're calling me a hater.

It's nonsense.

It must be horrible
to be attacked like that.

-Especially because of a misunderstanding.
-Yes, I don't know what to do.

You shouldn't trust
everything you see online.

Focus on your friends,

your family and the people
who know who you are.

Thank you, Manuel, but...

They won't stop posting comments.

One friend is worth more than
a million anonymous comments.

Are you my friend?

(CHUCKLES)

I am.

And I'd like...

What?

I'd like to do anything in my power
to see you happy.

-Anything?
-(CHUCKLES) Anything.

But... Really.

Don't pay attention
to those hiding behind a screen.

They're cowardly.

Thank you. But it hurts all the same.

You have to learn
what and who to listen to.

True.

Really, thank you.
Your words make me feel better.

-Then I won't stop talking.
-(CHUCKLES)

-Maybe while we take a walk?
-Okay.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

-No, I won't go.
-Mariano, be reasonable.

I can't see the Gutiérrezes again.

-I really can't.
-I understand, honey.

I don't like the idea
of facing them again either.

I don't want to stir up the past.

Coming to terms with what happened
was hard enough.

-It still is.
-Exactly.

But we have to go. Come to an agreement.

That's what Helena would have wanted.

To come to an agreement with those people?

To talk to them,
to look them in the eyes

after the awful things
they said about our daughter?

Maybe by now
they realized they were wrong.

You know that's not the case.

Honey...

-Please.
-I'm not going.

-I think I made myself clear.
-All right. Don't go, but I will.

What are you saying?
You can't go by yourself.

Yes, I can. I'm going. Period.

-Breathe. Breathe.
-(GASPING)

ALEX: ...I thought my friend,
but who ended up being just a hater.

Well, there's no question.

This moment is a turning point
for Alex Gutiérrez.

You were right.
Using menthol was a great trick.

For a star, to inspire tears
is as important as inspiring laughter.

And right now, given the circumstances,
you want to be pitied. Trust me.

To seem approachable,
but above all, to look fragile.

-Pretend you have problems like everybody.
-Mm-hmm.

It always works.

Hey.

-Are you all right?
-Yes, don't worry.

It's just I can't seem to concentrate.

Okay. Bia?

-She went to get some food.
-Ah.

Are you sure there's nothing
you want to talk about?

It's just... I can't do it on my own.

I lied to the girls
that I passed the test.

But no, I didn't pass.

And now they want to help me,
but I can't. I'm a mess.

-Chiara, I know you well.
-(SIGHS)

I know you're not a mess
and you can do it.

Maybe you're just tired or blocked.
It's not uncommon.

The question is why you lied to them.

-Well... I didn't want them to worry.
-Mm-hmm.

And also because
they always get good grades.

Very good. And I don't.

We are all good at different things.

That does not make us
better or worse, just different.

And you're free, spontaneous, creative.

That's probably why you find it hard

to study things that are
more structured. You know?

-CHIARA: Thank you.
-Mãe...

Chiara was supposed to be studying
what I explained to her.

Oh, sorry. I'm distracting your student.

-I'll leave you to it.
-Thank you.

(CHUCKLES)

-Break is over.
-Mm-hmm.

What were the names of the gods
who created the world

according to the Maya?

Okay. There were four gods.

Two?

-You're close.
-Three. There were three. Right?

Yes, now tell me their names.

One had a perfect name. It was Gale.

Gale? I've never heard that before.

But close enough. Hurakan,
or "Hurricane".

Hurricane. Gale.
They mean almost the same.

Almost. I find it funny.
But the teacher won't.

-No, she has no sense of humor.
-But we have to do something.

We've been studying for almost two hours
and we are stuck.

I'm sorry, Bia.
I don't know why I can't concentrate.

And I like this,
but I get lost in my thoughts.

I see. Wait.

I have an idea.

Are you going to pretend to be me,
take the exam

and get me an excellent grade?

No, I have a much better idea.

-Come on. Let's get to work.
-Okay.

All right.

A long time ago,

there was only darkness in the world
and an enormous area of water.

In that darkness, there lived three gods,
Hurakan, Kukulcán and Tepeu.

These gods wanted the waters to recede.

And that gave origin

to the first plants
and fertile lands for crop.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

But the gods thought
there was something missing.

That's why...

They filled the trees with...

Confetti.

-What do you mean "confetti"?
-(LAUGHS)

Very good. I wanted to see
if you were paying attention.

The gods filled the world with guardians.

Those were the animals.

But since animals could not move,
the gods said,

-"Bird, you will live in the air."
-(CHIRPING)

-(HOWLING)
-"Wolf, you'll sleep in the caves.

"Man, you'll walk on four legs

"and then you'll walk
more and more erect until...

"You get a cell phone."

(BOTH LAUGHING)

BIA: No, that's not right.

That's better, isn't it?

(GIGGLES)

And that's how the world was created
according to the Maya.

Wow! This way, it's much more interesting.
I think I got it all.

-You earned a break.
-Great.

-Now, can we take a selfie?
-Yes.

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

-(CELL PHONE CHIMES)
-(CHUCKLES)

A new video by Alex.

Hello, Mega People.

First of all, I want to
thank you all for your support.

This is a very difficult moment for me.
Nobody deserves this, not me, not anybody.

I don't understand why some people
find it funny to hurt others.

I shared her art on my account.

She's the queen of the arts.
Her hands are magic.

I present to you, Bia.

(SNIFFLES)

People tell me I should be more selfish.

But that's not who I am.
I don't have it in me to hurt anybody.

Not even a hater I thought was my friend.

(SNIFFLES)

I know I'll get through this.

Thank you for standing by me.

(SNIFFLES) I love you all.

One of my best videos so far.
I'm learning a lot, to be honest.

"Learning"?

In the past, I wouldn't have been
able to act like that.

But look at me now.

Why did you do it?

Because I'm trending right now.

I don't get it.

No, I didn't think I'd pull it off either.
Truth be told, I owe it all to Carmín.

I don't like this path
you're taking, Alex.

I'm not surprised, cousin.
Lately, you don't like anything I do.

No, I don't like you hurting people
to get followers.

And that you cry fake tears
in your videos.

What are you becoming, Alex?

A winner.

Alex is going crazy.

He didn't even let me explain.

I don't think this is about
the Cobra's video, Bia.

He must be angry because you rejected him.

But how can he say those things about me?

He's taking revenge.

And I don't know how far
he's willing to go.

(SIGHS)

I don't know.

Manuel always helps him with his videos.

Do you think he helped him
with this one, too?

Manuel is different.
I'm sure he had nothing to do with it.

But Alex has gone too far.

I don't think he's capable
of doing this on his own.

He must be under Carmín's influence.

Yes. It's clear that there's more
behind this video.

-Go ahead. Scare me some more.
-I'm sorry, Bia, but this is serious.

Alex might be hurt
because you rejected him.

But he's also taking advantage of that.

Look what I found in your sock drawer.

How could you
hide these letters from Victor?

-It's not important.
-And from me.

It's nothing important.

-Don't give me that. The label sent it.
-I know what it is.

I'm getting tired of all the secrets
we have in this family.

Paula, it's not what it seems.

-Don't give me that. Please.
-(SIGHS)

I wanted to spare you the pain.
You, Victor and everybody.

Imagine that. And what did you think?
That you could do that by lying to me?

No, I thought, I still think,

that seeing the Urquizas again
would cause you pain. Actually...

I don't need you to decide for me.

I was thinking about
the well-being of my family.

Alex told me we needed to...

-What? You got Alex involved in this?
-No, I didn't.

-Actually, well... I...
-Listen to yourself, Antonio.

Mom, what's all the fuss?

Nothing, son. Nothing.

So there's nothing going on. (SCOFFS)

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

(LAUGHING)

What's so funny?

Nothing. Just a video I made.

I'm glad you can laugh at yourself.

Ha-ha.

Actually...

That's not it. I had an idea and...

It's not funny if I explain it.
I'll show you.

PIXIE: Let's see.

(LAUGHS)

(BOTH LAUGHING)

It's hilarious.

It's perfect for the humor section

Villalobos wants to include
in the channel.

A humor section?

-Yes. He wants to call it "LOL."
-I love it! (CHUCKLES)

He only told me yesterday.

How about I create something
to launch the section?

-Get on it! (LAUGHS)
-Excellent.

-I'm on it.
-Great.

Jhon suggested I create my own channel
to post more about myself.

-It's a great idea, don't you think?
-I don't know.

I feel comfortable in the background.
I feel safe, protected.

-I'm afraid of trying it on my own.
-I hear you.

But there's no rush.
You'll do it when you're ready.

-Yes, you're right.
-Yes. (CHUCKLES)

-Hi.
-Hi.

-BIA: Hi, guys.
-How are you doing?

-Fine.
-I didn't like what Alex did in the video.

DAISY: He's being unfair.

People are saying some terrible things.

I get messages all the time.

What are you looking at?

He really looked hurt.
For a moment there, I believed him.

It's just a marketing strategy, Daisy.
A digital strategy.

And it's working.
His followers keep rising.

What if he's the Cobra?
Didn't it occur to you?

Maybe he posted the video.

And it wouldn't be the first time
someone resorts to that.

So Alex made a video mocking himself
so he could play the victim?

-You don't think he's capable of that?
-I no longer know what to think.

I do. Let's think about
something positive.

Pietro's sampling and master class.

-Yes!
-I hope Chiara makes it.

If she doesn't pass the make-up test,
she'll be grounded for a month.

The three of you need to be there.
I want you to see the residency.

Besides, Thiago is super nice.
And Ana, the piano teacher, is lovely.

I'm dying to meet them!

-You'll love it!
-(BOTH GIGGLE)

I'm getting better, right?

-ANA: Indeed. Congratulations.
-(GLASSES CLINK)

This is the base sauce for the croquettes.

-ANA: Mmm. Let's have a taste.
-THIAGO: Let's have a taste.

-Wow.
-Mmm.

It's like a melody
that's soft but intense.

Great. I'm going to name it that.

Now all I need to know
is how many people will come.

I want everything to go smoothly.

Yes, relax. It can't possibly go wrong.
You are a great organizer.

You have to make this your daytime job.

I'd love to.

But I think it'd be very hard
for me to become a chef.

Just a few succeed, and the rest...

I don't know.
That's why I decided to study law.

-It's going to be a success.
-ANA: For sure.

Thank you, guys.

I'm going to the market
to see if they have my sage.

I understand him. It's hard to do
something out of the ordinary.

Like cooking or making art.

How did you end up doing what you do?

It's not easy to make the decision.

That moment...

Ana?

-Are you here?
-Sorry. (CHUCKLES)

Well, in my case, it wasn't easy.

But for Victor and Lucas,
it was even worse.

Their parents didn't want them
to be musicians

and they blamed me
for taking them down that path.

CHIARA: Look how cute!

CELESTE: I know!

CHIARA: I'm a genius!

Hey! Are you the Cobra?

The Cobra wouldn't be so obvious, Chiara.

Don't worry, girls.
I'm taking some shots for a new video.

And don't worry. You'll look great.

-ALL: Thank you!
-Well, some more than other.

Jhon, we were just talking
about the master class.

What do you think if we make
a special song for that day?

Well, if it includes me,
I think it's a fantastic idea.

-I also think so.
-We all think it's fantastic.

-(CELESTE LAUGHS)
-Great, then... Hey, you know what?

-There's someone else who should be in it.
-Don't worry. Celeste will be in it too.

I know that. Celeste can't be left out.
But I meant to say Manuel.

Manuel? Good idea.

And I think someone here thinks
it's the best idea ever.

CHIARA: Right.

(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)

Yes, he is a great musician.

(CHUCKLES)

-CELESTE: Right.
-JHON: All right, then.

-I'll let him know.
-Please do.

-Hey, ready to fly the drones?
-Right now?

If you don't feel like it,
I'll go by myself.

Yes, sure. Whenever you want.

-Are you sure?
-Absolutely.

-I'll let Manuel know and we'll go.
-Yes, yes.

JHON: All right.

Pietro, I have an emergency.

-I need you.
-PIETRO: No way. I can't.

What do you mean you can't?

I'm getting everything ready
for the master class.

Oh, no. My knight in shining armor
invited me to fly.

To fly the drones, I mean.

And what do you need me for?

Did you watch the videos I recommended?
Did you learn the basics at least?

No, Pietro.
I only learned how to unbox it.

Can you help me, please?

Nice shot.

-Ah, Marcos, I was just...
-Trying my new toy.

Alex is breaking records.

(LAUGHING)

For him to become a real star,
we need to get rid of his cousin.

Carmín told me he was the only one

-who didn't like the video.
-That guy doesn't get our business.

And we're done
giving him chances to get it.

I want him out of here, Guillermo. Today.

I'll get him to leave of his own volition.

Well, well. It seems like you're learning.

"Seems" being the key word.

(SNICKERING)

What a shame your drone broke.

Yes, a total pity.
I lent it to a friend and he destroyed it.

Maybe I can fix it.

Don't worry. I took it
to the repair shop... for drones.

Did you remember to put in the batteries?

You mean charge them, right?

Yes, that's what I mean.
Sorry, I'm a bit distracted.

You, distracted? I can't believe it.
(CHUCKLES)

DAISY: Wow!

What a launch!

-Take-off.
-Right. The take-off.

As we experts say it, right?

You are funny today.

So, your drone, how long can it fly?

Uh... Um...

-It depends.
-I mean, with a full charge.

Do you know the joke about the drone
that got stuck in a tree?

It's not my favorite,
but it's definitely up there. (LAUGHS)

Um, very funny. Here.

You want me to pilot your drone? No.
No, no. These things are very delicate.

You must have it configured
the way you like it.

Come on, it's easy. Fly over the trees.

Then surround them. And bring it back
as fast as possible. Like in a race.

-No, I can't.
-Why?

Because I'm a dancer.

-I have to be careful with my hands.
-You dance with your hands?

Naturally. I dance with my whole body.
Did you see Maya Plisetskaya in Swan Lake?

When the swan dies,
she does this with her hands.

She shakes them as if they were
a swan's wings. See?

(CHUCKLES) Very good, Daisy.

Yes. In conclusion,
my wrists hurt because of a move I did.

-(SIGHS)
-Hey. What do you have written there?

Oh, nothing. Just some things
Pietro asked me to get for dinner.

I promise you that as soon
as my drone is better...

I mean, my wrists,
we'll fly our drones together.

Okay?

Watch out!
You're outside the flying space.

BIA: (ON PHONE VIDEO)
♪ And a new world I'll create ♪

♪ And if I'm born again ♪

♪ I'll be there with you ♪

(VOCALIZING)

(MUSIC STOPS)

What were you doing?

Nothing.

You fell under the mermaid's spell
once again.

I was watching my video of her singing.
I wanted to hear it one last time.

-What do you mean "one last time"?
-I'm going to delete it.

Really? But you're obsessed with her,
with her voice. I don't get it.

It's not that I want to.
But I have to do it.

-She asked me to delete it.
-But why?

MANUEL:
I don't know. She said it was personal.

Okay. But...

Before you delete it,
can I at least listen to it once?

She must have a very special voice
after everything you told me.

MANUEL: You can't.

I'm sorry. I...

She said she doesn't want
people to hear her sing.

It's something important to her
and I respect it.

I think it's great
that you respect her decision.

Music is something very personal.

It's our way of connecting with the world,
showing our real selves.

And if she doesn't want to show it,
she must have a reason.

MANUEL:
I hope someday she changes her mind.

Her voice is truly unique.

I don't know how else to put it. She's...

She's special. Different.

You're crazy about this girl, Manuel.

I never heard you talk like this
about anybody. (CHUCKLES)

I don't know.

Well, I suppose with Alex in the way,
it can't be easy for you.

No, not at all.

Especially after his last video.

I still haven't watched it.

(SIGHS) I don't know. It's not like him.

But ever since he's been in LAIX...

Is it that bad?

I don't know. I'm worried about him.

Maybe you could try talking to him.

(CHUCKLES) Well...

I don't think he'll listen to me,
but it can't hurt to try.

And... I need one last favor.

I might start charging you. (LAUGHS)

It's just that I'm writing
a song with a friend

and I wanted an expert's opinion.

And you want me to find an expert for you?

-(SCOFFS)
-(VICTOR CHUCKLES)

Let's hear it...

(PLAYING SOULFUL POP TUNE)

-Eh?
-I like it. I like it a lot.

Now, if I may,

I'd try a small variation
in the melody. Like this...

(VOCALIZING)

-That's good.
-Mm-hmm.

(VOCALIZING)

Okay.

-(BOTH LAUGHING)
-(CELL PHONE CHIMES)

I have to go. But thanks for your help.

You're welcome.

-See you around.
-Bye.

♪ I never thought love would find me ♪

♪ And I finally met you ♪

♪ My night changed of tone
And in an instant ♪

♪ I fell in love with you ♪

Hey, why did you stop playing? Go on.
I love it when you play.

-You get better every day.
-I don't think so.

But I do. You have to trust
your number one fan.

(CHUCKLES) Thank you, Thiago.
You're a very good friend.

I love that melody.

It's like a three-pointer
from the middle of the court.

-(LAUGHS) Is that good?
-Very. (CHUCKLES)

All right. Shall we start the class?

-(GRUNTS)
-Hey. What's wrong?

I was thinking.

-Sometimes I feel it's pointless.
-The piano lessons?

-(SIGHS)
-I thought you liked them.

You were so excited
and you were getting better.

I am.

But I don't think I have a talent for it,
to be honest.

Um, you know what I think?

THIAGO: Hmm?

That's your insecurity talking.

Thiago, you can play guitar.

And you need to be patient
with the piano. That's all.

You're only just beginning.

And besides, all that matters
is that you enjoy it.

Like a three-pointer
from the middle of the court.

(LAUGHS) You're right.
But I'm not gifted like you or Victor.

Didn't you tell me he had
a rich inner world

and he could express it through music
like no one else?

(SIGHS) The thing is...

Victor was different.

He was very sensitive.

-And his music was deep.
-Just like his gaze.

How would you know?

Manuel. Hi. (GIGGLES)

Hi, Mara. You're coming to FUNDOM?

No, I was just passing by and I saw you.
I wanted to see how you were doing.

-Well, a little bit worried.
-For what they did to Alex?

They really went too far with him.

-With him?
-Mm-hmm.

No, I don't think that's the case.

You don't?
You think what they did was okay?

No, but...

The way he acted with Bia
wasn't good either.

She didn't deserve that.

Aren't you saying that
because you like her?

(SCOFFS)

I'd react the same way
if it was someone else.

It's not okay to attack someone
who didn't mean to harm you

and least of all, start a campaign
to make them look bad.

Well, I hadn't seen it that way.

-I hope everybody in LAIX sees it.
-No way.

You wouldn't believe how they are.
Especially Carmín.

She's charming in front of the camera

but she's a different person
when it's off. She's horrible.

You have no idea
how bad she treats me. It's...

It's horrible to be mistreated
all the time.

I didn't know that.

-Why don't you quit?
-I don't know.

I hope someday everything will change.

Besides, I love what I do.

I'm sure things will change.

-Just be patient.
-You're a good guy, Manuel.

(SIGHS) I should only do the beat
so Celeste's voice pops out.

No, no, you have to sing. Besides...

Your voice contrasts perfectly
with Celeste's and Chiara's.

Let's hope we can count on Chiara.

Because of her grade, right?

-CELESTE: Yes.
-I should get to answering

the comments on my last tutorial.

It's all right that we're all distracted,
that way, it will be even better.

Right. Yes. You should write a book
called "Jhon's theories."

You know, it's not a bad idea.

-It would help a lot of people.
-MANUEL: Hi, guys.

You came right on time.
We were just talking about the song and...

I thought we could play it for them
to see what they think.

-MANUEL: Sure.
-Yes.

Everything is ready.

♪ Don't be afraid
I'm over here ♪

♪ Don't be afraid
Just try it ♪

♪ Everything comes back
Life gives it back to you ♪

♪ It gives you special moments
That you carry in your mind ♪

♪ Everything comes back
Life gives it back to you ♪

♪ It gives you special moments
That you carry in your mind ♪

Now, that's it. That was much better.

-I really liked it, guys.
-MANUEL: I'm glad.

Listen, where is Bia?

She didn't listen to it but
as long as Celeste likes it...

No, I meant because of the video.

-She's worried.
-Very much so.

Yes, I can imagine.

(CLICKS FINGERS)

You know what? I like that for the title.

-What?
-"Yes, I can imagine."

Don't you like it?

-Come on. It's a good title.
-Hmm.

Sing with me, "Yes, I can imagine."

(LAUGHS)

There you are.
We wanted to tell you a few things.

-I bet I know what it is. Save it.
-She thinks she's funny.

-Why did you trash Alex?
-I didn't trash anybody.

Right. What else were you going to say?

The truth. I've been trying
to say it for a while now.

Look, you may go on doing doodles,

we know, as all Alex's followers know,
that you are just...

A hater.

Your account is going down.
No one will follow you after this.

PIXIE: Hey.

How are you doing?

I can't take it anymore.
I'm going to close my page.

How come?

For each bad comment I erase,
I get ten more.

Some time ago, back when I cared too much
about what other people thought,

I went through something similar.

What happened?

Let's just say I gave in to peer pressure.

But sometimes I think

I made a mistake.

My video keeps getting comments.

-The viral video of the year, you mean.
-And all thanks to my muse.

I just gave you a push.

No, you did much more than that.

Without your help,
I'd still be Alex, mega-dork.

(LAUGHS)

Instead, look, I'm more popular than ever.

And you better get used to success.

If you follow my advice,
the sky is the limit.

Of course. From now on,
I'll listen to anything you tell me.

I'm glad to hear it.

We make a good team, don't we?

We make the best team.
I love collaborating with you.

-That's all?
-Well...

Actually...

I like everything about you.

(CELL PHONE CHIMES)

Hi, Manuel.

You don't need to pretend in front of me.

I know how you feel.

We've just met and...

You already know how I feel
just by looking at me.

Yes. Just by looking at you.

I don't know how this happened.

Don't be sad. I can't see you like this.

I've noticed your cousin Manuel
is a bit envious of you

or jealous of your success.

Manuel, aren't you going
to congratulate your cousin?

He's got so many new subscribers.

It was Manuel, wasn't he?
He told you about the video?

It wasn't him.
He has nothing to do with it.

I just want to talk to you, Alex.

They want to release a digital version

-of Helena's band's record.
-That's awesome!

Victor needs to sign off on it.

But he's likely going to go
with his family. Right?

They're going to try to reach him.
We can't let that happen.

Who are you and why are you following me?

The Cobra attacks again.

They just posted a video
on "I know what you did."

Must be another video against me.
