El Lobista (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 8 - Caballo De Troya - full transcript

I need four bugging devices.
Even if they both work very well.

All my microphones are working, except for
Radio Shack!

If you take my money,
we'll be brothers from now on.

We become family.

The family is always with you.

For better or for worse.

Ceballos when you die,
Ospina is born.

Ceballos

No, please don't send me.

The church will wait for you when you're ready .

Javi, hold on!!



I'm sick and tired of this!

Come on, wake up! Wake up!

Mr. Franco, what a surprise.

You psycho son of a bitch!

What did you say to my brother?

Speak, son of a bitch.

You've filled his head with this Holy Inspiration bullshit.

You sent him on suicide missions.

And you threw it away!

What did you say to him?

That he wanted me to take him away from the Church.

I don't understand why you're whining.
What did you expect to happen?

Bay Franco.

Javier chose a path,
just like yours.



Every decision has a consequence...

...and we must put up with them.

God gives us opportunities.
The choice is ours.

You cheater dog.
I don't believe in God.

Mr. Franco, you are
a smart, pragmatic man.

We have
a deal to close.

It'll be for both of us when it ends.

You may see me as the enemy, but
I am your ally.

The real enemy is within us.

Anytime.

TROJAN HORSE

Condolences, Matías.

To say a few words...

...saying goodbye to
Javier and celebrating his acceptance...

There is nothing to celebrate here.

Javier is now an eternal being,
freed from his suffering.

There's not much left to say.
He is no more.

No, of course there is, in all of
our hearts...

...and in the kingdom of the great God.

There's no point in arguing.

Say whatever you have to say...

...get outta here.

Dear brothers and sisters,
let's pray for Javier's soul.

God took him
out of this empty world.

Today we bury it here.

Son of a bitch.

Passed.

Fuck this job!

I swear I
don't know how to feel.

Calm down, it's over.

Don't burden yourself.

Passed.

Thanks for being with me.

I swear I
don't know when all this shit started.

Mr. Eusebio Ramírez, who appeared before the district attorney today and...

Antonio.

Mr. Antonio Ramírezon Elián Rojas Ospina...

... will testify in the ongoing investigation .

How are you, Ramírez?

I'm fine, sir. How are you?

I'm fine. Thanks for asking.

So you're a surgeon.

Veterinary medicine.

You are a veterinarian.

Could you clarify the matter for
me?

Can a veterinarian
cure a person?

Certainly.

We have general medical knowledge.

Excuse me, may I ask what we're doing here?

Of course,
let's get straight to the point.

Here's a death certificate.

It is dated 14 November 1998.

Signed by Dr. Eusebio Ramírez.

Is this your signature?

Yes.

It's my signature.

Wonderful.

At stake is the late
Mr Eduardo Ceballos...

...died at the age of 38...

...and the cause of death was
sudden cardiac arrest.

Do you remember him?
-It's been 20 years.

You can't expect my father to remember that case .

I can wait for whatever I want.

If it says so there...

For example:
Eduardo Ceballos's daughter-in-law.

... we found no remains of a 38-year-old man .

Instead, we found the bones of a 14-year-old boy.

Okay, but until my father's lawyer arrives...

...will not say anything else.

Look, Ramírez.
I'm telling you what I know.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

If you do a joint...

...you can fill in the blanks.

How?

Ceballos used to bring contraband from Paraguay and Brazil .

His partner, Gregorio Cárdenas...

he was an ex-cop.

He did a lot of uncanny work.

One of them is
to get money from life insurance...

...it was to issue a fake birth certificate.

You are signing them.

Am I doing well?

For some reason, Ceballos is pretending
to be dead...

...and three days later, it
reappears, this time under a different name.

You did not sign both documents.

So what I want to learn is this:

Who is buried in that cemetery?

I don't know.

I swear I do not know!

The judge made a bank secrecy
decision...

...but it takes time.
We must use it.

Can't you sell your media group?
Get rid of it.

I can't sell what isn't mine,
Jimena.

But it will replace me...

...I can find a man, but
an international investigation...

...who could be that stupid, considering we're under
it?

At worst,
you say you don't know the origin of the money.

Money is not important.

Ospina is surrounded by corpses.

Can't you see that my partner is a murderer?

What do you think?

Look, Mati, you know I'm there for you no matter what.

What you did for me and my mother when my father died...

...nobody else would.

But still,
you're an idiot.

Ok

Convince Ospina to sell.

He's in more trouble than you.

This man is
a psychopath on a crusade.

He never listens.

You either kill or die.

How's the news going?

Wonderful.
There are a lot of beautiful farms in Buenos Aires .

I was glad.

It's true that we need to invest in infrastructure.

That's right.

But we need to educate people about energy consumption .

What are my health benefits?

People are overwhelmed right now...

...because their condition hasn't changed.

This is obviously your opinion,
Natalia.

I'm sorry, but
the facts are very different.

Investing the most in the basic needs of citizens...

... we, this administration.

Crime prevention, health, education...

Really?
How many schools were built under your administration ?

How many hospitals were built?

Frankly , I don't know the exact number right now ...

...I don't want to give you an estimated number
either...

...because sometimes this can end in disaster...

...but you can
visit whenever you want.

Okay, let's close this conversation.

Damn.

Wait, I think it was very good.

I saw the confidence in him.

No,
we have to keep working on it.

You have to have numbers.
How many schools?

Obviously this is important.
Shall I give you some advice?

A nice t-shirt without a logo.

We can make them.

Take off the watch... What?

No tie?

No, for those oldies.
You will come.

You are the bright new face of the future.

Why are we taking off the clock?

It's not appropriate.
No bracelet either.

It could be a fitness bracelet.
It could be him, right?

Do you play any sport?

Sometimes I play football.

You should start training.
Jogging attracts crowds.

We must set a fixed agenda.

Yes... I'm sorry, Natalia.

Before you nominate or
define a communication strategy...

...we need surveys, focus groups,
studies.

We need to examine Pablo's public statements
one at a time.

How did we skip these?

Wait a second, in a few days the
campaign will begin...

...and that takes time.

Not ready, Pablo.Not welcome, Natalia.

One second. With your permission.
Do you have time?

We'll be back soon.
You look good, Pablo.

Thank you.

Wonderful...

Matías, what's wrong with you?

What do you want to say?

Net WorldCom has no money?

Where did you get it?
Your resources should be better, darling.

I can call or
you can tell.

Call whoever you want.

The moment we get overwhelmed, the moment we can't go on
...

... those sleepless nights...

...when we are paralyzed by anxiety and fear ...

... Jesus to guide us, to enlighten us
...

...will appear.

We must let Him do the work for us
.

God comforts us,
God forgives us...

...God heals.

Even if we are tempted...

I think we're done,
what do you say?

- What about the air conditioner?
- He said it had to be changed.

Let's get the boxes out first.

The ones in the back?

Let me help you.

- Are these?
- Yes. Let me help you.

- These are not too heavy.
- Lets go.

Identity theft is a crime.
We can bring him here.

Identity theft is a crime, yes.

But that's not what we're talking about.

Ospina has a nickname, okay?

If this is a crime...

...every artist in the country should be in
jail.

But signing documents under a pseudonym is a
crime.

Federico,
Ospina could be a psychopath...

...may also be a megalomaniac...

...may even be a god complex,
anyway...

...but they have good advisers.

The accounts are under his real name,
Eduardo Ceballos.

Their assets are also registered in the name of the Church.

Ceballos, does he have a child?

I guess.

Is there any chance that the child we found in that grave was ...

Is it possible?

No, never mind.

What? Is it Ceballos' son?

It's possible. Yes it is possible!

Very good.

The vet had Ospina
unequivocally...

...if he says he knows...

... we may have reason to do DNA analysis .

We compare it to the child's
DNA.

- Let's do this.
- Yeah, let's do that.

What are you doing?

I'm trying to fix the camera on my desk.

Why is that?

To take pictures.

I want to install this in front of the house.

I'll set the timer to take a picture every 30 seconds .

Why this,
Esteban gave you...

... I feel it has nothing to do with the micro-tourism news ?

This has nothing to do with Esteban.

Where will you build it?

I do not know.
Do you want to help me?

Ok...

Judge Fernandez Tepper.

District Attorney Quinteros...

Whatever you do, you make
enemies.

It wouldn't be as much fun without Nati.

Natalia.
They pushed you out on the street.

I'm just warming up.
Do not worry about it.

I haven't said anything to Velasco just in case.

Say Net WorldCom will be the funder of the two campaigns .

Any politicians interested in where their money comes from?

No, it doesn't matter as long as the money comes in.

You know, I'll be 40 soon.

If you ask me how old I am, I'll
go.

Well?

Always at this age, in the mutual
fund...

...I dreamed that I would have four or five million dollars .

A yacht...

But I think you have...

...he has a very good head of business.

You are very brave.

Your soul is very enthusiastic.

But now it's like this...

I didn't say anything about your brother.

I didn't know what to say.

Forgive me.
- Let it be.

- But I'm really sorry.
- I know that. Thank you.

You're not like that.

There is a fire inside, the
soul is on fire.

And you must use it as a weapon.

Because this...

This is your life.

She's softening you up.
I'm not saying this out of jealousy.

That's the truth.

I see him as...
You know, the photographer.

I don't want to be rude, but
it makes you soft.

I don't want to talk about it either...

...but he's not the one for you.

You need something else.

What do you need?

A struggle.

Without struggle, life doesn't interest you.

A woman, a job, something to make your
blood boil.

You are such a person.

You enjoy life.
You live!

You're alive.

I have an offer for you.

- For me?
- Yes.

Do you want to get the media group?

I'll give you a good price.

Is everything all right? Who's that?

It's not important.
You sleep, it's okay.

God always hears my thoughts, and
I often hear Him.

The church is just a way for him to show his trust in me .

Inspirations.

I understand.

Some people believe in God.

Basilary to Our Lady of Guadalupe.

He had appeared three times to one of the natives, Juan Diego.

I pray to him every day and I
always carry this locket...

...but I'm mainly
interested in production.

Everyone,
no matter how small, has their share...

...on time and without asking any questions,
only those given to them...

...I'm interested in doing the tasks
.

So we all benefit.

Does what I say make sense?

We are all doing our best
that...

...everything goes as
smoothly as possible.

You're doing your best, but
I fainted at five million.

Even the terms are not equal,
are they?

Patience is the key here.

Patience is something for the Chinese.
This is a very urgent situation for me.

I'm not on either end of the production line.

I'm connected.

The problem is this: I did my part.

Unlike you.

But we're all equally screwed, and that's unfair.

No one will lose here,
Mr. Morales.

We all want to solve this
and it will be solved.

Mr. Franco,
any questions that may arise...

... does his best to overcome it .

This doesn't work.

Mr. Morales,
if you get on the ring road in Mexico City...

...and if there's a traffic jam, it just can't move
forward...

...What do you do?

You must be patient, sir.

I recommend having a cup of linden
. This may take some time.

Are you trying to be funny?

Establishing a construction company...

... drawing detailed plans for the church ...

...referring to the Joint Welding Program...

...to get the plans approved and
finally...

...setting up a diplomatic container...

...it's not a two-day job, you know?

That's why you're here, Mr. Franco.

This is your job.

The priest said you were the best.

I am the best...

...and that's why I'm telling you this will take time.

How much, Mr. Franco?

My guess is two or three months.

Two weeks!

You have two weeks to ship the goods ...

... otherwise this union will end in two weeks .

And my
relations with my exes are very bad.

Let's see if
you're as talented as they say, Mr. Franco.

It 's nearly impossible to ascertain the cause of death .

The skeleton is old and not whole.

Or?

There are signs of a blow to the base
of the skull.

It could be anything.

That's right.

- This is the situation.
- No, that's what we got.

What does your inner voice say?

I can't solve it. I have to look Ospina
in the eye.

Beautiful. I am going.
My niece has a birthday party.

- How old is he?
- Nine.

Is he doing it "in the ball pit"?

In the "ball pool", yes.

It's going to boil over.

It's the birthday party, Manuel.
Of course it will.

See you later.

Stay pleasant.

Federico, I'm Manuel Quinteros.

Yes, WhatsApp.

I ate the birthday cake you left for me in the cupboard .

Thank you, it was beautiful.

Say my regards to your family.
I hope you all had fun.

Okay, send
me an invitation next time.

Everything will be alright.

I read the article about you.
It was very interesting.

I love interviews.
My favourite.

If I were a journalist, I
would do it differently.

I don't know, the news seemed incomplete.

If it were me, I would ask about your childhood and
past.

You come from a poor family.

We were never hungry, but we
were not rich either.

Now you're rich as shit.

Are your parents alive?

No, they died a long time ago.

Condolences.
Do you have any siblings?

I don't understand.
Interested in my family tree?

My favorite part is this:
When you say that...

...even if you are not a religious person...

...one day...

...
a "holy day" as you put it...

... had an inspiration, saw
something...

...you had a mystical experience or something like
that, right?

Something like him.

So how was it?

Such events
happen in mysterious ways.

One day I heard something...

It's like humming.

It's like whispering.

It was not very clear.

Like the sounds you hear when you wake up from a dream.

This lasted for several days.

But one day the voice became clear.

"God needs you."

Do you know Ospina?
These sound hallucinations...

... is very common among patients with psychosis .

Especially in cases of schizophrenia.

People often label
things they don't understand.

If you say so...
Do you have any children?

- No.
- Ever happened?

Hey.

If you have time,
I will tell you a story.

The story of an unidentified man .

Let's say that for now.

Unidentified, born in
Esquina, Corrientes.

Weird, like you.

Moved to Entre Ríos as a child.

This bastard
thinks he can go nuts with us?

He hunts lizards with his friends...

...swimming in the river or something.

Typical things kids do.

Especially those who grow up in rural areas.

He's dreaming!

A little naughty, but not much.

Sure, he had some skills.

He's smart.

But there was nothing he was very successful at.

He's not unusual.

Blind, he has delusions.

And she had her first sexual experience.

The first call from nature.

Probably with a prostitute...

...in a wretched tavern
by the river.

That's right.
So it should be.

He also had a girlfriend,
he got her pregnant.

It was then that the Unidentified's world changed.

He had a son...

...and because he couldn't
find a job because he didn't go to school...

...began to break the law and chose the
easy way.

So what did he do?
He's a smuggler.

He started to bring contraband goods from Brazil and Paraguay .

Small appliances...

maybe some marijuana...

To do this, he
got help from his friend.

From Gregorio Cárdenas.

He was not my friend.

He was a vulture, a scavenger.

Cárdenas, what Unidentified
did not know or could not do...

...doing things.
Document forgery...

... do not bribe people, do not pay the
police ...

...he was doing things like this.

Cárdenas had them built!
What would we know about smuggling?

But Identity was in great
shape. Everything seemed to be stuck.

He was an adult now, his son was
in adolescence.

How much he loved that 14-year-old boy .

Was the boy working with his father?

- Unidentified was a tough guy.
- No no! Not him!

He wanted his son to obey his every order.

On an ominous, heartbreaking, tragic day...

...that 14-year-old boy...

... that child who is just beginning to experience life ...

... died as a result of a blow to the head .

What happened?

What happened?

We don't know.

Maybe someone was angry with his father...

...and killed his son.

Or maybe...

Could it be?

Your own father...

...the beatings he always took...

...is it possible that he exaggerated a little?

No, no, that's it!

Believe it or not, it was an
accident.

We have no interest!

whatever happened...

...The deceased son of the Unidentified, his corpse...

...she was supposed to hide it.

And that's where Cárdenas stepped in again.

Finisher.

He had a brilliant idea.

To kill the father...

...and bury your son.

So did they.

Then a
simple paperwork remained.

A new document, of
course fake...

...and the job of tampering with death certificates .

Things like that. Signatures that
are easy to handle.

Anonymous was
no longer an anonymous person.

It got a new name...

...and left town.

He left his dead son behind him.

Your beloved son.

Really...

...who will spend the rest of his life,
pressing a stone to his heart like this...

... can it continue?

Impossible.

There isn't a day that I don't think of him.

How can a man not be mad?

How can a person...

...when his favorite person dies...

...not crazy?

He began to hear voices.

Those voices were saying to him:

"God needs you."

You are a stupid!

You do not understand!

You're stupid! You're stupid!

I want you to go.
I'm very busy.

Let me finish my story.

- Please...
- Let me finish, Ospina.

Do you want to know the true identity of Unidentified?

Her name...

...Eduardo Ceballos.

Please.

What?

Subpoena.

At the district attorney's office, you'll be in
the suspect queue.

See you there.
Thanks for your time.

The house is beautiful, Mr. Ospina.

Jime,
sorry to call you so late.

They subpoenaed Ospina to enter
the suspect queue.

I need to find out what's going on.

OK, thanks.

All right, Mr. Ramírez,
it's very simple.

You'll take a good look at the six.

Take your time,
look as much as you want...

...then tell me.

Is Eduardo Ceballos one of them ?

If you know him, show him the number he has, okay?

Take a good look.

Maybe a face, an expression,
an attitude suggests something.

Sorry, there is a gray car.
Plate, AA-488-PE...

My car.

Ten minutes ago, his alarm went off.

Listen to me old man.
Don't pretend to be stupid with me.

Tell me if you see Eduardo Ceballos here.

I do not have much time.
Hurry, focus, come on!

Ok

If it's here, tell me.

- Antonio Ramirez?
- Yes?

This is for you.

What's this?

Who gave this to you? Hey!

Where did you find these photos?

Facebook, Instagram...
I didn't have much time.

- You are very good.
- I know.

One of them.

I am very sure of that.

You're sure of shit!

Ok

I am pretty sure.

What number? What number?

It's done! Let's go dad!

What happened?
Is there a problem?

He needs a lawyer.

What happened below Antonio?

Mr. Quinteros,
if you need to talk to my father...

...you need to talk to his lawyer first.

Antonio, did they threaten you?

Dad, let's go!

Antonio, I can protect you!

GREGORIO CÁRDENAS
FOUND DEAD ON THE HIGHWAY

A MAN FOUND ON THE MOTORWAY*

BOMB THREAT AT A BOARDING HOUSE IN SAN TELMOCOMMOTION IN THE DISTRICT OF SAN TELMO

MAY I SEE YOU TODAY?

I was a child.

I was 11 years old.

My father told me
he was moving out of the house.

That you left my mother.

My mother was crying
but didn't say a word.

What about you?

Frankly, I was very surprised.

He said he was moving to a nearby city.

That you're going to visit me or something.

I stopped listening
because I felt something.

Then I looked at him and asked:

"Dad, are you in love with another woman?"

He said "yes" too.

This put me at ease...

...because he was telling the truth.

And the truth is,
as hard as it is...

... is always better.

What do you want to learn?
Ask what you want.

I want you to tell me the truth about Ospina.

Ospina is a psychopath.

A charlatan who defrauds
people with the promise of salvation.

This is Ospina in a nutshell.
What else do you want to know?

Are you doing business with him?

How could you ask me that?
No, I'm not doing business with Ospina.

Why are you so angry?
What's the problem?

I'm fine.

Is there something else?

Are you sure?

You're better off telling.

- District Attorney Quinteros?
- Yes?

You are investigating the death of Gregorio Cárdenas.

A man killed on the highway.

Along with other cases.

I have information that may be of use to you.

Cárdenas
speaks to Ospina hours before he is killed.

This is valuable information, Miss Inzillo.
It's very precious.

So are these photos.

By using facial recognition software...

...I'll verify their identity.

Thank you.

If you want, I can continue taking pictures.

Not necessary.
We have the people to do it.

But
there's one thing we can't do without your help.

Considering your relationship with Matías Franco, you...

Well...

Should I try to get information from him?

In a way.

Of course, I can't force you to do that...

...I can't even ask you to do that.

I understand if you reject me because of your relationship.

Anyways...

If I agree to do it...

...will I have to put a microphone
or something?

Something like that.

If you accept and
the judge accepts...

... we can turn your mobile phone
into a microphone.

That will suffice.

I cannot deny that it would be complex and even dangerous .

It will be our Trojan horse.

Ok

Let's do this.

God Almighty's...

...and in your presence
my brothers...

... I'm making a confession.

I have committed a great sin with my thoughts and words .

By what I've done and failed to
do.

With my mistakes, my mistakes...

...the biggest mistake I've ever made.

So from the Blessed Virgin Mary...

...from all the angels and saints...

...and my brothers from you...

...I want you to pray to our God, the Lord, for me .

Crucified,
dead and buried...

We'll continue with Zalcman.
He knows us, he's secretive.

What did the lawyer tell you?
Seven working days is too much!

Whatever happens, I need it tomorrow,
okay?

Beautiful.

Get in the car!

Walk!
Go! Go! Go.

Good morning, Mr. Franco.
Shall we have a little walk?

Morales, for your information,
I like women.

What's wrong with you Argentines?

You never know when to shut up. Lets go.

Fall on your knees.

Do you know what this is, Mr. Franco?

Something comes to mind, yes.

It looks like a Henri Pieper production.

To those used by the Zapatista National Liberation Army.

They had a special application.

When they suspect someone has betrayed...

...they would put bullets in the chamber...

...they would return him...

...and the gun was
pointed at the suspect's head.

The man was considered innocent if the gun did not fire.

I don't know whether to trust you or not.

I'm doing my best, believe me.

Then the fact that we played Mexican roulette...

...I don't think it will be a problem for you.

You are a beautiful couple,
aren't you, Mr. Franco?

We don't want anything to happen to Miss Lourdes, do we?

You have ten days left.

Don't let me down.
