El Lobista (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - La rana y el Escorpion - full transcript

Do you think Ospina will just
let you go?

I'd rather have the district attorney find it than let you hide it.

The decision is yours.

Don't take the plane.
Don't take the plane.

So you're either on the side of the trickster or on the side
of justice.

And justice is mine.

Dress nicely. That's nicer.

Get dressed, we'll go.

PROCESS COMPLETED

She wants to break up. He said it himself.

There is a cut price for everyone in this world,
Mr. Ospina.



Or a bullet.

When the package arrives...

...we'll see what Mr. Franco
chooses.

May the light of Holy Inspiration
be with you, Matías.

They are at customs.
- They're downloading the merchandise?

Probably yes.

Go ask the judge for permission.
Now! Please! Run!

No time to play games.

Where is the goods?

SCORPIO AND FROG

Are we ready?

Come!

Don't be stubborn, Mr. Franco,
you won't get to a place like this.

I can't get anywhere otherwise.



- Agreed.
- Yes, I'll keep my word too.

As soon as you check into a hotel on the French Riviera...

...I'll call you and tell you where the container is.

Everyone will be happy.
How?

I'm not a patient man, Mr. Franco.

If you kill me
you will never find the container

I won't kill you,
but I'll bring you very close to death.

It's up to you to decide whether or not to cross over to the other side .

They say when you're about to die...

... your life passed before your eyes.

I roughly remember the last three or four days .

You are so Beautiful. Are you okay?

Yes, I'm just tired.

Poor thing.

I'll give you a massage later.
- Ok.

That I have little time and
many decisions to make...

...that's when I got it.

What do you want me to do?

Follow him morning and evening.

So what are you going to do?

Shouldn't you cancel the container?

Even if I die in the end, I'm going to
end this.

You were right,
with Quinteros.

The most valuable currency in my profession is knowledge.

It's like looking at your opponent's cards.

Even if it doesn't guarantee you win that hand.

I had three days to plan the funeral .

And to get out of the coffin in time.

I would need a lot of help.

You need to replace this container number with another one.

Far from that, with
another episode, okay?

Yes, of course, we will.

But can you tell me a little more about what's going on?

All I can tell you is this: In
two days...

...I'll come here with two mafia bosses.

Very solid guys.

Things will get tough, okay?

Let's open this thing and see what's inside.
- Ok.

District Attorney's Office

Manuel.

Federico.

Who?

I don't know, it was sent to you.

- For me?
- Yes.

Now I have a secret admirer?

They are truly confidential: There is
no return address.

Should I call the bomb squad?

Who brought this?

I don't know, it's the courier.

Is this what I think it is?

Customs documents, account book...

Real estate information, title deeds...

everything.

This is amazing!

Fabulous!

All these guys
activities in the last few years.

Now it's your turn.

No, I don't know.

- Come on, don't be a fool.
- But I don't remember.

What was the most embarrassing moment of your life?

I don't remember.

What you're thinking right now, tell me.

Ok

It was at a school friend's
birthday party.

I think I was 13.

I wanted to pee from the beginning...

...but I don't remember why I didn't go to the toilet .

Anyway, long story short, I pissed myself
in front of my friends.

That's disgusting!

Poor thing, it's bad.

What's yours? It is your turn.

I was suspended from school in the fifth grade for a lie I told.

That my father was a diplomat...

...and I said I should go on a trip with
him.

I told the house that there was a renovation in the school .

I didn't go to school for two weeks.
I had so much fun.

But I was suspended.

So lying was always in your life.

Yes.

This is my mechanism.

Let's just say it makes life more bearable.

I don't like myself very much.

And I
lied to you from day one, it's true.

I did it to make you think I'm a better person.

I wanted to be the person you need.
Do you understand?

You don't need to lie for
that.

I know.

I want to change.

When?

Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of my life ...

...and I want to spend it with you.

Why tomorrow?
What will happen tomorrow?

I'm quitting.

God doesn't want you to suffer like this,
Mr. Franco.

If you tell us which is the right container ...

...we'll let you go.

I promise.

God's word.

Mr Franco, it's very simple:

Decide how many parts of your body are injured and...

... that's how you say the location of the property.

Just think about it.

Where?

Here.

I hope
there are no more surprises waiting for us.

I'm concerned for your health,
Mr. Franco.

We're here, that's it.

You sure, right?

Because I 'm not in the mood to play any treasure hunt .

The goods are inside, I guarantee.

Hungry! No, wait.

Better if you're hungry, Mr. Franco.

Have mercy.

Come on, it's not that bad.
One last effort.

Wow

Who are you going to crucify here?

I have no idea.

Do you have anything to open?

Yes. Here.

What are these sons of bitches
hiding here?

Hey, who are your friends?

Here's what we'll do now:

You will take them in when we arrive.

You will go and get in the car...

...then you will wait for me on the road by the river .

As usual, okay?
- Yes of course. Ok.

So what?
- The less you know, the better.

There is one more thing.
They will search me before they come.

I'll leave
a little friend here to help.

- Is it full?
- Are you kidding me?

How many people?

It doesn't matter, don't be a coward.
Help me close.

That's the thing, isn't it?

Let's say it's our property.

We could have done this much faster,
Mr. Franco.

It wouldn't be a mystery, sir.

This attitude of yours is really sad.

We could do great things together.

What you did for our church...

...thank you for everything,
Mr. Franco.

I'm so sorry it turned out this way .

I'll take it out myself, okay?
I know the way.

Hi! Hi! Hi!

Hi! Hi!

Hi!

Hi!

No! Please dont!

Hi!

Hi!

We need another fixer
.

It will be a little difficult.

- No, stop...
- Shut up son of a bitch!

Now it will be a few seconds.

Damn!

Matías! Come on buddy!

- Wait!
- No!

Matías, the cops are here.
Hurry up dummy.

You go!

- But...
- Go, fool!

Damn you Matías.
Damn!

Camacho, I'll wrap them around.

OK, got it.

Miss Inzillo,
you always stick your nose where you shouldn't.

No, please, I was going too.

Please.

Hush

We're dating.

God is with us.

I am the light of the world.

Don't move! Police!

Fire!

Fire!

You.

You put the treasure of your words between our lips .

Reflect your light on our senses.

Strengthen our weak body.

Keep our enemies away from us.

Don't move! Drop your gun!

Leave it there!

Don't move!

I am the light of the world.

God is with us.

Please.

Eduardo Ceballos.
You fucking son of a bitch.

You son of a bitch!

Did he do anything to you?
- No I am fine.

Sorry, it's all my fault.

Are you okay?

Yes. Are you okay my love?

- Yes.
- Passed.

Sorry.

It's almost time, Ospina.

I think we need to talk.

Right now, a few hours ago, a shocking police operation...

...we are in
that place where it happened.

Thanks to the extensive investigation by District Attorney Manuel Quinteros ...

...the police
caught an international arms smuggling gang.

At least eight people are in custody.
And between them...

...
there is also the pastor of the Church of the Holy Inspiration.

This case has unpredictable
dimensions.

Money laundering, extortion, extortion...

We will continue to share it with you as we receive more information .

I know what I said.

Net WorldCom
is now at a bargain price!

Much cheaper than an apartment on the outskirts of town .

Tell me.
Because I do information work.

Once we find another investor, we will
close it cheaply.

Shall we meet tomorrow and talk about it?

I agree. Wonderful.

OK, at 14:00. Agreed.

Thank you. See you later.

Yeah!

It's beautiful, I'm very happy.

Come, sit down.

How is the future mayor
today?

I am very good.

We'll see what they have to say.

Asking for full access to the case file and...

...we'll see what we can do.

Don't say a word.

How are you Mr Ospina?
Sir.

How is your hand? Is it better?

My client is under the influence of painkillers .

He's not in a position to bear the questioning.

I request that it be postponed until the doctor approves .

Did he get a bad cutter?

Please, who doesn't take painkillers nowadays?

Do not exaggerate.

Are you different, Mr. Ospina?

Your legal situation is in very bad shape.

Human justice cannot
prevail over God's justice.

Not above, not below.

All in their own jurisdiction.

You are
now under my jurisdiction.

Now I will give you the information of the charges that we will find.

Smuggling:
2-8 years in prison.

Tax evasion:
Up to nine years in prison.

Money laundering and...

...forgery of documents.

Between 6 months and 3 years in prison.

I want to see your evidence on these charges .

The murder of Camilo Stefano.
The murder of Gregorio Cárdenas.

Both cases carry a sentence of 8-25
years in prison.

No parole.

Moreover, for the remains found in the tomb of Eduardo Ceballos ...

...we will demand a more thorough investigation .

I don't know if your client has told you about this...

...but we believe Mr. Ospina is actually Eduardo
Ceballos.

And the remains found in that tomb...

... we think it belongs to Mr. Ospina 's son.

So if there's a DNA match...

...we're going to charge him with first-degree murder.

Life imprisonment.

My client is not in a position to make any statements.

Ospina, will you work together?

What will your expression be?
Guilty or not guilty?

God is inconsiderate,
Mr. Quinteros.

Shove God up your ass Ospina.

And try to work miracles.

This photo could win the King of Spain Award.

I'm writing here,
there is no limit for you.

Thanks, but I've made my decision.
I'm leaving.

Come on, don't be kidding.

It's over.

How much did they offer?
I'll double it.

That's not the point, Esteban.

I know we have our differences...

...but I appreciate your work, I like what you do.

I couldn't find a space, a place for myself in your agency.

I'm leaving.

Absolutely. And I'm telling you to
use your space well.

You have a different perspective, you are
brave, you are sensitive.

You just have to learn to swim among sharks.

I don't think I want to learn.

You can take the best photos and
write the best articles...

...but they don't exist if no one sees
them.

My agency can do that,
put you in sight.

What do we do when my point of view doesn't fit the agency
?

If you want to fight the system, do it from the
inside.

Esteban,
I know you're saying this because my photo is selling.

Of course,
I'm saying this because the photo sells.

I like it , genius,
he created you.

You're there now, use this.

I don't know how to cheat.

No, I'll take a break.
Finished.

Don't take it too long, okay?
We all go out of style.

Manuel.

What a surprise.

How are you, Sleeping Beauty?

I'm waiting for my prince charming.

Don't play with fire.

Nice gesture.
Were you here all night?

No, I just got here.

You're in luck, Matías, it didn't hit the
nail nerves.

You're so lucky.

Your hands will be like new.
The doctors here are very good.

There was nothing they could do to his brain
though.

Unfortunately it won't get better.

And the rest...

That's enough.

Oh my God...

Thank you very much, you are
very kind.

Can I ask you a question?

Of course.

Will you answer honestly?

I never gave you dishonest answers.

None. I swear.

Did he say all that?

Look...

If this event helped us get to know each other
...

...it was then.

I love you, Manolo. I swear.

We can be good friends with you.

Idiot.

Let me tell you a story.

Is it long?

Ehh, it has substance.

Ok

A farmer was plowing land, in
a place where the farmers work.

Under the scorching heat.

Suddenly a genie appeared.
The genies who grant you wishes.

- Lamp genies.
- That's one of them!

And he said: "Built that old plow
with a modern tractor...

...I'm giving you the opportunity to change."

The farmer said:
"In exchange for what?"

So he knows how things work.

Everything has a price.
- "Within a finger of your hand."

The devil?

The farmer didn't count his fingers.
Five fingers on each hand.

He said, "There are ten. I'll
lose one, it's okay."

He gave the finger, took the tractor.

The next year...

...the same genie appeared before the same farmer
again.

Is there a different story for each finger?Cut it short, please.

He said: "With a modern, multifunctional
harvester...

...I'm proposing to change your tractor."

The latest technology.
- Beautiful. The man did not accept.

But first he asked:
"In return for what?"

- Another finger.
- Ditto!

- Of course.
- Another finger.

Even if there were nine,
there would be eight left.

That's right.

- I'll keep it short.
- Yes please.

Every year, the demon continued to appear on the farmer's wife.

He offered her different things in exchange for a finger.

That last year...

...the tenth year, the farmer was in this situation.

- Nine roots.
- Yes.

The genie also said:

"Any amount of money you can hold with your hands
or...

...I'll give you back the nine fingers you lost."

So what did he choose?
- The farmer? your fingers.

Yes, he got his fingers back,
but he was left empty-handed.

Idiot.
I take the money...

...and I'd stick my finger in the
genie's ass.

That was an option too, wasn't it?

Stress Manual.
No problem.

The farmer's problem was his greed.

The same is your problem, Matías,
extreme greed.

Understood.

Thank you.

Get rest.

You need to get stronger.

Prison...

...it's a complicated place.

Stay nice, Matías.

Stay nice, Matías.

Hello.

Pardon? Miss Inzillo,
where are you going?

You cannot enter Matías Franco's
room.

One second.

No, no, in custody, please.

Is it okay or not? I'm going to look at it.
So.

Yes, well, it's getting better.

But you can't get in.
Never.

Don't worry, he...

Especially he never lost his sense of humor .

He saved me,
you know?

You wouldn't have caught him if he hadn't saved me.

I know a lot about him,
yes.

I know you can't stop getting into trouble.

It's in nature.

- He's not what you think he is.
- He's not what you think he is.

Can I leave him a message?
You or the officer?

Or a nurse, I don't know.

Do I look like a footman?

Or a matchmaker?

No, you cannot leave a message.

Remember,
you're under suspicion in this case too.

I'll also subpoena you to get your statement .

You will have to answer many things.

Like what you did at customs.

What were you doing at customs, Lourdes?

I had gone to warn him.

Love story, sure.

Am I obstructing the case?

God, it must be morality lesson day.

A frog has agreed to carry a scorpion
across the river.

Halfway through , the scorpion bit the
frog to death.

The frog said:
"What did you do? Are you crazy?

Now we're both going to die, we're going to
drown."

Scorpio said:

"I can't help it, it's just my nature."

People don't change, Lourdes.

It's very painful, but
people don't change.

Have you seen Mr. Franco?

Good. I'm better.

I don't like the hospital's bland boiled chicken,but I'm fine.

The birds said.

They serve five meals in prison .

Along with Mendoza's finest wines.

Mr. Franco,
I will explain the charges against you.

The relevant evidence is in your attorney's
case file.

First, when you buy the Net WorldCom
media group...

...Mr. Elián Rojas as Ospina's front man...

... we have
indisputable evidence that you are working.

Being a front person is not a crime.

Yes, of course this is
abetting other crimes...

...and not in cases of complicity.

We have evidence for them too.

For money laundering and tax evasion charges.

Another issue we will investigate is...

...your involvement in the murders of Camilo Stefano and Gregorio Cárdenas.

This is nonsense, you know.

The court
will decide that in due course.

Meanwhile, as the inquiry continues...

...and to obstruct justice...

...because we
know what you can do, Mr. Franco...

I've decided to decline your bail request .

And Matí,his property will also be confiscated.

Being a front person
may not be a crime, of course.

But if the company is illegal, it's a crime.

You're broke, you're done.

You consumed zero.

As of now, you are in
the hands of the penitentiary system.

Excuse me, let me.
Excuse me, excuse me.

Same thing all the time.

I couldn't find a parking spot and
had to walk 15 streets.

But who are you?

Your Honor,
you can call me Sancho.

I can't say my name for security reasons.

I work for an intelligence agency.

Also known as AFI.

Your Honor,
I ask you to examine this evidence...

...and I want you to add it to the case file.

Is this a joke?

Absolutely not.
These are very serious documents.

Where did you find these?

You want me to forge the agency document ?

Yes.

But I have
to play with dates, with budgets.

I have to attach documents.

But even if I do them...

... no signatures to confirm a covert operation .

Yes, but
you know how the agency works, Sancho.

Nobody knows anybody here.

Everything is segmented,
budgets are secret.

There is no reliable record of anything.

Nobody uses real names,
always nicknames.

We're going to make up a document from three years ago .

It belongs to the period when there was someone else in the first place .

It will be a covert operation...

...but the previous administration
will have started it.

Nobody asks anything.

Especially if the operation is
successful.

What's more, my leaving the agency...

...it'll look like it's part of the operation,
got it?

Yes but...

In this case...

...someone from the top
will have to sign this.

That will cost you dearly.

If the deal is good, the money is found.

If things go wrong...

...see you at the steakhouse.

In Villa Madero?

You know, you won a color TV.

Thank you.

Thank you.

All the filth you have caused,
all the crimes you have committed...

...all the shit you've been messing
with is actually an intelligence operation...

...do you want me to believe that
you are now?

Yes, but I'm not authorized to
discuss this with you.

You are a vile criminal!

Do you think I'm stupid?
- Calm down.

I'll put you in jail!
If I don't throw you in...

Damn!

The Church of Holy Inspiration was
on our organization's radar.

This is real.

Especially because of the arms trafficking
connection. Sorry.

Come on, this is incredible!
Unheard of?

Isn't it obvious why my operation was successful?

Mr. Franco, I would like the
case to be declassified.

Of course.
But if you do this...

...I want your dismissal because of your hostility towards me.

The case goes to waste,
another judge looks at it...

... I would even have attained the impartiality that you don't have.

Ditto. Can I go now?

I have a reservation at a fancy restaurant.

But all of your property will be
confiscated.

That money was obtained illegally .

If you're worried about who's going to pay the bill,
don't.

I have many friends.

Manolo...

"Call me, dear."

"Fuck off."

I didn't know what to do,
I swear.

You did the right thing.

I didn't want to betray you.

You don't need to explain, Lourdes.

You don't seem to be doing anything right.

I saw the photo you took, it's
incredible.

Congratulations, very good.

Thank you.

Now, let me tell you something.
You're crazy.

What were you doing there?
You're crazy.

No, I know...
- I was worried about you.

You're homeless too.

They took everything from me.
Except for the glider.

It wasn't in my name,
look at this thing.

You can't sleep there, it's too narrow.

If you have more room in your house...

Aren't we going to talk about us?

The situation is complicated, Mati.

You're complicated.

You think I haven't changed since I met
you?

After going
through so much.

You think I haven't set my priorities ?

Do you think I want to lose you?
I do not want to lose you.

I don't know if I can do this right now. Give me some time.

Look...

I've been in love with you since the day I saw
you...

...because you said what I needed to hear.

You're right, I'm addicted to work and this
bullshit.

Hi...

What was that, you maniac?

Can't we start from scratch?

Mati, we're starting from scratch.

But are we starting?

We'll see.

Give me some time.

- Okay...
- Everything all right?

Wonderful.

You copied all my contacts,
right?

Obviously.

Wonderful.

What did he say?

He said OK, but he
needed $250,000 to get started.

What should I say to him?

It can be.
"If the deal is good..."

"To find."

Will you drive me home?
- Shall we go to a fancy restaurant?

I eat something grilled.

Beautiful.

If there's one thing I've learned while flying this plane ...

...that the map never
shows where you're going.

You can set a route...

...but many things can happen on the go.

You have to be
ready to improvise.

To follow the flow of a new current .

The best opportunities in life...

...when we least expect them, they
come upon us.
