El Lobista (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 4 - Dr. Jekyll - full transcript

Matías Franco is a victim of treason. Without getting too scared, el lobista will look out gracefully, using an ace up his sleeve.

I can't be! He took my money!

He took everything!

Laura, get what you need and let's go.

- What?
- Hurry up!

- We are coming!
- I can't wait all day!

I take everything from him.

Those are you, Laura!

Help us!

Am I not doing enough?

Lost a lot of things.

- Isn't he done?
- There's a little more.



This is going to get ugly.

Don t be coward.

Come on, hurry up.

Slut! You fucking bitch!
Are you screwing me?

- Get out of here!
- Mincho, where's my money?

Are you stealing my money?
You're stealing from me!

- Where is my money?
- What money? What money?

Late viewing times...

Get outta here.

Lets go.

Fucking you bitch!

Don't come here again or I'll blow your
brains out.

You motherfucker!

Life after death.



Buying a cottage from the moon is a
much more logical move.

This could be very soon.

It makes sense to believe in life after death . Do you know why it happens?

Because people know
what happens after they die.

...he is afraid of being indifferent.

Nothing happens.
You just cease to exist.

That's my life outside of the office.

No.
Manuel, can I go now?

To where?

Home, to see my girlfriend, to
spend time with my friends.

- You go when we're done.
- Well, we...

I compared the OFAC data.

Ok.
The church is in the charitable category.

There are some tax exemptions,
Customs privileges.

He doesn't get any money from the state.
No problem for now.

After donations, religious services and
product sales...

...The Church declared an income of 30 million 250 thousand dollars last year .

According to other sources...

... they stash three times that amount
in tax-free countries.

If OFAC doesn't do anything,
why don't we report it?

Because this is all
leaked information.

We cannot prove that a crime was committed.

We can't move forward.

Okay, but the Church
has at least three front companies.

One in Belize,
the other in Panama...

OK...
What about Ospina?

It's not on the list.

Every founder of the church
sends money to someone named Eduardo Ceballos.

Ospina's full attention.

Is Ceballos a human being?
Is Ospina's partner a monster?

The man is a ghost.

His last known address is in Puerto Ruiz,
Entre Ríos.

An address from 20 years ago.

The man disappeared after that.

Maybe he's
sipping his drink in Brazil.

Or in Cancun or Belize.
Who knows?

I need to know who Ceballos
is, okay? Coffee?

Okay, I'll either go now or
not come tomorrow.

Let me make it easy.
Get out, please.

Come on.

Back to your girlfriend, your friends, your
football games.

God, it sucks.

The girl wants to testify.

He wants his case to go to court .

He agreed when I told him you were going to interview him .

Do you know how many sexual assault stories there are?

Okay, but there's the Greek involved.
This is serious stuff.

You wouldn't believe how many I've heard.

And you're not doing anything?

I do not set the agenda.
I'm just following.

It's not the agenda, it's a crime.
A crime is committed.

Then tell the judge.
I'm just a reporter.

Come on, it's not about getting justice, it's about exposing the man.

Of course I want justice to be served.

On the other hand, I think this is an event worth revealing .

- Okay, how about that?
- Yes?

Give me something I can use right now
.

For example, who is behind the takeover of Net Worldcom
?

Give me that name and
I'll take care of the rest.

How's it going, Lu?

Hi.
They talk about you on TV.

- What are they saying?
- Not good stuff.

I spoke to the staff of the media group
.

They're worried.

They don't know what's going to happen.

There is too much uncertainty.

We investigated this.

Here's what we know: Two
weeks ago...

...Net Worldcom
has sold all its shares.

- Net Worldcom.
- They're coming.

Businessman Miguel Kazantzidis, we know
him as Greek...

...sold the entire
company to the person you see on the screen right now.

To Matías Franco.

Wait a minute.

Matías Franco, the man we see on screen now ...

...how much exactly
did he buy this media group for?

For a lot of money.
More than $200 million.

Wow, that's a lot of money.
So who is this guy?

- Do you know who it is?
- No, I've never heard of him.

A small businessman,
an insignificant player...

...the footman of businessmen and politicians.

He makes insignificant deals for a small share .

Most of the concepts are pure, and
I am investigating them.

Is this true?

Don't believe everything you see on TV,
Lourdes.

Damn it!

He used to work for the Federal
Bureau of Investigation.

- What happened?
- They fired him.

I'm not fired, I'm out, shithead!

The point
is, they may be draining the company.

Many people can
find themselves on the street.

This is blind obedience,
not submission.

No, God does not
want such a thing from us.

God wants us to look within...

... before we make a judgment,
let's accept our desires.

He wants us to be realistic.

God and hell are among
us now.

My job is to guide you through the right door ...

...but you have the key to that door.

I'm just a mirror.

He who looks at me sees himself.

True sacrifice means:

If we believe what we are,
leaving it...

...and to be our true essence.

Our true self.

You son of a bitch, you said I'd be the news director
...

...are you firing me now?

- It's not my decision, Esteban.
- And whose? That idiot at HR?

Someone from higher up.

Higher than who, Mati?
Are you the owner or a puppet of this place?

Listen to me.
Don't worry, I'll work this out.

But this is a good opportunity,
don't waste it.

Don't make fun of me.

I am very serious.

Do you really want to be a clerk as a news director
?

This job is not for you.

Start a production company.

What are you talking about?

If you do this, Networld Com
will hire you for three years.

10 hours of TV broadcast per week,
now 15 hours of radio broadcast.

Talk shows, variety shows,
specials, whatever you want.

Trust me, you will be a very successful
businessman.

Do it for five years.

All right,
I need you by my side.

You need to put out some fires.
People think they're going to be fired.

- Don't worry.
- There are rumors...

- Relax, I'll handle it.
- Okay, no worries then.

Look at it.
That Goldenberg guy...

Do you know who writes the transcripts ?

Goldenberg? Many people.
One, your lady friend.

My Natalia?

Don't worry.

Al bakalym.

What are you doing here?

I ended the sermon. It was permanent in mind.

What the fuck did you come to eat?

You're a little nervous.
Calm down, it's okay.

We agreed with you.

Yes, we agreed...

...but after all this time we have
to do some updates.

Don't read to me.
It's not like that.

You can't get anywhere near me or the Church.

You shouldn't even be in this city.
- Okay okay.

Look, I'm leaving town in a few days.

If you give me my share,I promise you will never see me again.

What share?

What do you want to say?
I'm talking about our partnership, man.

Let's clear this thing up.

We don't have any partnership with you.

I also don't like to be extorted from me.

Don't feel sorry for me.
You can say that in the pulpit.

It won't break me.

We had a mutual agreement.

You need my silence, I need
your money.

Some, not all.
It's not an amount that will put you in trouble.

I also solve a few problems with it.

This way.
It's in my room.

Gentlemen, be careful.

It will be put there by the wall on the right.

You robbed a museum?

What is this? Additional work?

Last year.

Over there.
Watch out guys.

You know how.
Those who work with honor like us...

...are underpaid.
If you donate to me...

I have dollars and I can't give it to you.

I understand.

You look so handsome on TV.

Really.
- Do not lie.

You know I'm much more handsome.

You know this.

You bought yourself a TV channel?

Something much larger and more complex.

With what money?

With the money of shareholders who trust the decisions I make.

Who are they?

Angel investors.
I can't tell you.

They don't like attention.

An advice from me to you.

You didn't make a good deal, you
got yourself a problem.

You don't know who your boss is and
where the money comes from.

And sooner or later all pawns end
in prison and misery.

You'll go to jail and I'll be there and
laugh my ass off at you.

- What happened to the recommendation, Manuel?
- That's right.

That painting over there?

It's big on the wall.

Either the wall is too small or the
painting is too big.

Ok.

Sorry.

Can we talk a little bit?

Certainly.

The other day... In your
sermon yesterday, you said...

... we are the family we choose.

Exactly.

I thought of that.

I chose the Church because it felt like my family .

What should I do about my real family?

What's stopping us from escaping...

... is a restraint we all have to get rid of sooner or later , Javier.

And sometimes our own family...

...is the heaviest load we have to carry.

But I don't like my family.
I don't like it.

I'm at odds with them.
They're like strangers to me.

My father... He thinks I'm disappointing him .

My brother loves me in his own way...
- You don't need to apologize.

What you are feeling right now is
not wrong.

You don't need to be ashamed or feel guilty
.

But sometimes I need a brother to lighten
my load.

Well...

You have many brothers in this Church.

Yes...

...we had a great time with Matías.

Especially as a kid.

But I can't remember the good times.

Is Matías your brother?

Yes.

Is it your brother?

Yes.

What does he do?

Only one thing in life
concerns my brother.

to do business. Money.

Lourdes, I already told you.

I'm a business consultant.
Is this so wrong?

Ok. Why didn't you tell me before
then?

Again, I didn't want you to be prejudiced against me .

You have a naive view of the world.

- Naive?
- Exactly. Innocent, naive.

The rich are bad, the poor are
poor.

I do business.
This is what I do best.

You're a good photographer too.
Making money is not a sin.

I didn't say it was a sin.

Look, Matías,
when I watched that revelation...

- It was complete bullshit.
- It doesn't matter!

Don't believe what you see on TV!

Although I don't know you well, it has
nothing to do with what I saw on TV...

...I know you have a side.

Do you think the more money you have, the more people
will like you?

Here it is! Did you see? Did you see?

I'm sorry, but you're like a baby.

Are you trying to enlighten me?

You're the saint, and I'm the greedy pig
?

OK good! Good!

Agreed then.
- On which subject?

We are very different.
You are laughing at me!

I'm not laughing.
I'm sorry, but this is so funny.

- Really? I'll shut up then.
- I love being with you.

I do not like.

Come on, don't go.
Turn back.

I think we're close.

Are you saying we're close?

Could you turn on the GPS, please?

- It doesn't.
- Wonderful.

- Are you sure Ceballos is here?
- I'm not.

But we have to start somewhere.

21. Are there centuries-old songs?

This is the most beautiful music ever made in this country, Federico.

Also this song is about me and my past.

I have no one to watch the sun rise.

Here's how.

How's the production company doing, Esteban?

Nobody said being a businessman is easy.

Look,
I know a girl who needs a job.

He's a great photographer.
His name is Lourdes Inzillo.

I'll text you his number,
okay?

Great, but that was your idea.
Don't talk about me, okay?

Great Esteban, see you soon.

Mr. Franco,
I'm sorry I'm late.

I'm different.

I missed the exit. I am really sad.

I need half an hour.

- You have one minute.
- Wait a minute? Ok.

Okay, Networld Com's three radios,
cable channels...

...has backup transmitters in 15 districts.

- We already knew that.
- Beautiful.

Frequencies already given by law ...

...can be ported to other services.

No need for a new license.

Networld Com takes advantage here.

No deal should be made in Buenos Aires
.

But the countryside is open.

Reaching more than 15 counties is considered a
blessing.

So you're saying that Networld Com
will receive frequencies

and Startel antennas, it
will reach more customers.

Exactly.

I like your way of thinking.

There is only one problem.

I am listening.

Judge Tepper, so you can operate outside of Buenos Aires
...

...repeal the injunction order
.

We tried, but she's a tough nut.

Don't worry about the judge,
I'll handle it.

Let's communicate.
- Absolutely.

Later...

...to the deceased.

We're rowing in vain.
No one knows the man.

If he lives here, someone knows him.
Let me be patient.

He was gone 20 years ago though.
This is so illogical.

To investigate is to
eliminate the impossible.

The rest,
although it seems unlikely...

...it's real.

- Who said that?
- I read it on the sugar packet.

Let's go to the title deed and have a look,
shall we?

Do I have any other choice?

Hey.

Ok. Tepper
took office in August 1979.

He dominated nine years later.

He was brought to the judgeship of the court of first instance in Buenos Aires .

In 1992 , he was made a member of the court of appeal in Buenos Aires .

Then he was appointed to the Supreme Court.

- It's too big for this wall.
- Did you listen to me?

Yes. Something like that.
Did you get these from Wikipedia?

Super. I want to know how he thinks
.

That you don't hold anything back.

How about if I hang it on the wall?

- A lot of sunshine comes from there.
- Yes you are right.

So obviously Judge Tepper
is very knowledgeable.

He thoroughly examines each case.

One of
the most liberal judges in his district.

He is interested in Japanese culture, collects
old coins.

- Enough. You made me sick.
- You're very bad.

I'm not bad.
I need more attractive things.

- Excuse me.
- Hi, Javi.

- Whats up?
- Sit down.

- No. Were you working?
- No, we took a break.

- Your keys.
- No, well, they're yours.

No, I do not want.

Do me a favor and keep it.

You can come and go whenever you want.

Why are you so good all of a sudden?

Because you're my brother, Javier.

This was not very important before.

I'll be back soon guys,
okay?

You don't need to go.

Ok...

Sorry.
I already apologized.

I just couldn't be there once.

You brought me the girl who was going to overdose, I took care of
her and saved her, right?

You asked me to imitate a guy,
so I did that.

Are you keeping your scoreboard?
Will you take money from me too?

That's not the point, Javier, please...

This is your job.
You buy and sell good things, Matías.

Come over for dinner, let's talk about it.

I will let you know.

Do you want to take a break?

No. Go ahead but don't
provide Wikipedia information.

Go on.

I can not believe this.

Doesn't anyone work in this dingy town?

We can't go back to Buenos Aires right now.

We will spend the night here.
- Don't, Manual.

Ok

Did you bring your pajamas?

What is it again?

- Are you alone?
- Of course, this is my home.

- I left you, like, 35 messages.
- I know. I saw.

What's going on?
What are you up to?

I didn't do anything.

what do you have?

You talked to Goldenberg, you got
my face and my name on TV.

What are you doing?
Do you have any morals left?

Calm down. You knew what was going to happen.

No, I
didn't know you were going to stab me in the back like that.

There is something else.

What's your problem with men?
Tell me.

First you exposed the Greek, then me.
- That's right.

Is it lonely?
Are you taking revenge? Why?

Who are you? Charles Ingalls?
You're surrounded by women.

Because of Candela?

I was hurt, but I'll get through it.

Get the fuck out of there. You don't care.

No, I think you're upset with me.

- To you?
- Because our relationship didn't work out.

It's possible.

What did you come here for?
What else did you come to tell me?

- You think you can beat me?
- Of course I can beat you.

I'm always three steps ahead of you.

But I'll blow your mind when I attack.

- Wanna fuck?
- All right, but don't leave a trace.

I said leave no trace.
If you hit me, I'll call the police.

Be gentle.

I don't feel anything.

I don't feel anything... I feel
it now!

Do you like it?

- A lot.
- Me too.

You're driving me crazy.

Okay, I'm looking for someone with motivation,
good ideas.

But most importantly... Order ahead.

I'm always looking for someone who is available .

Wonderful. I am always available.
I work freelance.

I set my schedule.
- Wonderful.

You will not be freelancing here.
I need you full time.

sit down.
- Ok.

To do what exactly?

A little of everything, actually.
A little photography, a little fiction...

Do you write text?
- I write.

- Column?
- It's possible.

- Do you interview?
- I'll do that too.

Beautiful.
Croissant and brainstorm every morning at nine o'clock .

Wonderful. I love it.

Let's talk about your salary,
see if you still pass out.

I don't know who is responsible for the decisions in the process.

You made me the CEO,
so from the helper kid in the UK...

...it is my duty to tell you that he is very incompetent .

He's someone I trust.

It's prudent, it's logical...

These are enough for me.

I think it's very reckless to fire Borsusky.

Your friend Borsusky made
a story a few years ago.

He said, "They're going to make faith," and he wasn't
talking about me.

I don't trust him.
It's that simple.

Confidence is also based on motivation,
isn't it?

Losing a serious journalist like Borsusky
...

...it would be an unforgivable mistake,
believe me.

I prefer to set a time frame for the church's message .

We'll be reporting on the church.

A short biography of you,
an Internet publication...

I am waiting for
an interesting proposal to expand.

I'm interested in this.
Do not worry.

- Okay, set up a meeting.
- It's not necessary.

I'll handle it, I'll let
you know how it goes.

Mr. Franco.

I bought a media group to have more control ...

...not for losing.

I don't like the idea of ​​a ship
having two captains, as you suggest.

We do not understand each other.

I totally agree with you.

I sell my shares, go home
and it's over.

No one can leave the Church.

You don't need to exaggerate like that.

Look, I'm a believer.

I believe in saving the soul.

I believe in freedom of choice.

And I believe we build ourselves every day.

I also believe that you should come to the point.

Don't let him talk to you like that.

Mr. Franco.

I want you to help me spread the message of our
church.

Look, I'm a businessman.

Together we determine a common strategy.

If you want, of course.

But if I post messages, how
does that work?

Don't let this idiot talk to you like that.

I heard you!

Who are you talking to, sir?

Sometimes I talk to God.

Eduardo Ceballos.
Is something confusing?

Eduardo Ceballos?
Maybe, I'm not sure.

Let's take a look here.

We lost many things during the flood.

It was worse than in 59.
It was a complete disaster.

We lost many records.
But we were able to save them.

Do you have anything digitalized?

Is it digital? Hi! Hey, hey.

Everything was either handwritten or
typed.

Let's see if we get lucky.

Kafka-esque situation.

Here it is.

Eduardo Ceballos.
You are not right.

He died in 1998.
- Is he dead?

It's a miracle the death certificate was saved .

Is Eduardo Ceballos dead?

Do we know where he is buried?

He's definitely buried in the Gualeguaychu Cemetery,don't you think?

Beautiful. Now I need a folder...

For envelopes.

Envelopes?
Don't have a folder?

I'll go and fetch it.

Where is the woman?

Inside, she is having lunch with her husband.

- What about a car?
- Metallic gray Mercedes.

Plate, IDV-158.

Ok

Where will you find your key?

We'll see.

"We'll see. We'll see."

ENTER

- Welcome.
- Good morning, thanks.

Its my pleasure.

What's our situation?

If they find out I've taken this equipment,
they'll shake me off my balls.

- It takes a lot of rope.
- Oh, you're so funny.

What did you bring?

I brought... Where is it?

- That?
- Yes.

It has three mini cameras, a microphone and
enough battery for 72 hours.

Enough is enough.

Okay, but I have to get this equipment back.

I need to replace it.
Agreed?

- Calm down.
- I'm calm, I'm just saying.

You are very stressed.

Anyways.

We'll wait now.

- Do you see?
- Yes.

- Thanks.
-18 numbers.

I am waiting.

Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Well.

To explain.

The judge is coming.
He's leaving the restaurant.

- Is he going home?
- I don't know.

Ok.
Follow him and let me know.

- Thank you very much.
- Have a nice day.

What happened, Sancho?

Is it over?
Get out of there now.

What happened?
There was only one left.

The judge is about to come.

Mati, get out of there now.
Get out quick, get out.

Go out, don't be silly!
Get out of there now!

Food is not what it used to be.

Yes you are right. Not like before.

- Do you want coffee?
- It's possible. I will do it.

Wonderful.

Do you want sweetener?

Yeah!

Gregory? I 've changed my mind,
I want tea.

Something must have touched it.
- No problem.

You idiot, you want to get caught?

Check the signal.

- Everything looks good.
- Wonderful.

What are we looking for?

Anything to help him make the right decision.

No other words are needed.

See you later.

I SORRY FOR BEHAVIORING
SUCH

NAZING

PLEASE ANSWER ME

- What's going on?
- I'm about to finish.

- Did Rafa tell you?
- What?

We start profiles tomorrow.

For both the magazine and the website.

You will take the photos.
- Wonderful. Who is our subject?

There are two people: a finance guru and
an Evangelical pastor.

Did you think it was Mick Jagger?
- For a moment.

Choose one.
I'll give the other one to Rafa.

Priest.

Ok.

I WANT YOU TO SEE WHO I AM, LET'S MEET
AFTERNOON

How did you find?

Great, really.

- What I enjoy most here is...
- I know. Don't tell.

The feeling of being on top of the world,
right?

Is this a joke?

I don't know, you tell me.

No, I like silence.

It's the only place I can find peace.

Look down.

You've shown me how dedicated you are all this time.

You showed your dedication and loyalty.

Of course.

We are all very happy that you are part of our family .

Me too.
This is very important for me.

I think it's time to take the next step.

The next step?

I want you to be at the next
initiation.

This woman is so boring.

It doesn't do anything.
If not, work, files, books.

Even my aunt , who is limping and has Alzheimer's,
is more fun.

- And the husband?
- It's boring too.

They're cut out for each other.

Kady has a son named Ezequiel from her first marriage .

She calls her mother 15 times
a day and asks her to do something.

We can say that the woman has a soft spot for him.

I asked, I inquired.

The boy got into trouble a few years ago,and they covered it up.

Take a bite.

The egg and chicken thing.
We cannot abide by the regulations while there is a ban .

The company cannot operate.
We can't lift the ban.

The terms are always re-
evaluable opinions.

Right, it's a matter of opinion...

...but in this case,
I make the decision, not you.

I'll explain all the technical and legal reasons
, but I don't think you'll understand.

But even in this case...

...
there are other resources you can refer to.

Yes, we can appeal, but
it takes a lot of time...

...and we really
don't have time right now, Your Honor.

Mr. Franco, we have plenty of time.

When was Ezekiel born?

Do you know him?

Certainly. I like cars.
I used to co-pilot at rallies.

Your son is well known in the rally world.

Does he still participate in the races?
- Sometimes.

He's a very skilled driver but
a little careless, you know?

He said, "Don't be silly, step on the racetrack.

" Street racing is dangerous,
you can kill someone," we said.

Good day, Mr. Franco.

Give my regards and
let me know when you review your decision.

Everyone will feel relieved.

Have a nice day.

Ma'am, you can't take
pictures here without permission.

Hello, I'm Lourdes,
photographer for El Otro Yo magazine.

I'm here for an interview with Pastor Ospina.
You may not know.

He's busy right now.

- I'll wait.
- I'll tell you you're coming.

ok

- Can't I take a picture here?
- You have to get her permission.

Can I take a photo of the outside?
- Of course.

It won't be a problem.
- Great, thanks.

You're welcome.

Did you want to see me, sir?

- I have a request of you.
- I am listening.

Someone thinks they can bully a federal judge .

I want to show him how things work
.

- When?
- As soon as possible.

This is bullshit.
Also a crime.

You talk like that because you went to a private university
, Federico!

We are about to desecrate a tomb
.

The unclaimed grave of someone who died 20 years ago
...

...we're just going to review it unofficially.

Couldn't we get permission to remove the body ?

No, it would be a waste of time.
We act on our intuitions.

No judge will approve of this.

- I cant believe.
- Very simple.

If we find something, we continue, if we don't...

right there.

That?

Are you afraid the corpse will report us?

- Can we have a look?
- As you wish.

That's the attitude I want to see.

- Mr. Matias Franco?
- I am him.

It's a search warrant.
We notify.

Gentlemen.

- Who issued the order?
- Judge Cecilia Fernandez Tepper.

What are you looking for?

You can read the details in the warrant .

How original.

Sir, we found something here.

Handcuff them.

You're under surveillance until...

Yeah yeah. I know the app.

Please.

Hurry, son.
