Juliantina (2019): Season 1, Episode 8 - ¡El primer beso! - full transcript
This will all be over soon, you’ll see.
El Chino probably has a guilty conscience and that’s why he showed up. That’s good.
He won’t show up.
Why do you say that?
Because I know my husband.
Besides, I have a bad feeling.
I’m going to get killed.
Why don’t you let me go?
No, ma'am. That can’t happen.
If I let you go, I'm the one who’ll get killed.
In case you change your mind.
No. No.
The last thing I want to do right now is drink.
He’s not picking up.
I swear if he’s not picking up it’s because he’s already done something to my mom.
Hey, no. Don’t say those things, okay?
We have to think positively or...we’re going to feel bad.
It’s just...you have no idea how much I hate my dad. Seriously, I hate him!
Everything we’re going through is his fault. And on top of that he dissapears, the son of a…
swear, I don’t know what I’ll do if something happens to my mom.
I don’t have anyone.... I’m alone.
Listen...
I know nothing replaces a mom.
But you’re not alone.
You have me.
What do you think about swimming for a little bit to distract ourselves?
Right now?
Well, if you’re not going to give alcohol a chance, at least give it to water, right?
Okay.
I’ll go get the bathing suits.
Okay, enough. Let’s stop thinking about everything...
Let’s try to have fun for a second, and relax. What do you think?
-Okay
-Yes.
Just a little bit, please smile
Do you want to practice floating like last time?
Do I start?
Aha.
Relax.
Don’t let go of me, please. Don’t let go of me.
You did it. You’re doing it.
No. No, no, no. Don’t let go of me.
No. Okay
I’m going to let go of you.
No, no.
Just a little bit.
You’re doing it... Don’t laugh... Concentrate.
What are you doing?
I’m floating next to you.
We were doing so well!
I kown
Listen. I’m really proud of you, because it’s not easy.
You did really well.
It’s freezing
Food’s ready. Where do you want to eat?
Uhm...Is it time to eat already? I didn’t realize.
Food’s been ready for a while now, but since you two didn’t seem to get out of here, I came to get you.
Should we eat outside? Is that okay?
Yes, yes, it’s fine.
Outside is fine.
Is something wrong?
-No.
-No.
Then outside.
Yes, thank you.
I’l...I’ll go get something to drink.
Okay.
Good afternoon.
Hello. Are you a friend of Valentina’s?
Yes, I’m friends with Valentina.
Oh, that’s great.
I’m sorry, but I have to go.
And you’re leaving by yourself? Walking? No way. Look, my driver is coming. We can give you a ride
Thank you so much, but I think I’m better off walking. Thank you.
-Good.
-That you're fine.
The same, bye
Come.
Have you heard anything?
No. And the police don't know anything either.
We saw that you managed to put the article in the newspaper. You did really well.
It was Valentina who published it.
Well, good. Because without friends in high places it would have been impossible.
None of that. God is on our side.
I hope so.
Because the 48 hours they gave El Chino to show up are almost over.
Don’t get so down, mija, you’ll see. Your dad is going to show up, and Lupita is going to get out of this.
Yes, yes. Everything is going to be fine. Don’t worry.
Thanks you
Baby…
Hi, baby.
What are you doing here, Lucho?
Baby...
sorry about the scene I made at university
I know that you’re probably fed up with me and that I’m an idiot.
But I’m an idiot that...that loves you, that’s in love with you.
What?
Look, I know I was horrible to your friend, and I don’t want to be like this.
I don’t wanna act like a cop with you. You can have all the friends you want. Please, let’s not drift apart.
Do you want to drink something?
I’ll make you something to drink.
I’m here...
No. No, no, no. Fucking bitch!
Stop please help me.
That’s it, mamacita, this is it for you.
Eat something. It’ll do you good.
I’m not hungry at all, but thank you.
I know, but if we lose our strength we’ll be able to help even less.
The 48 hours are up.
Juliana, I...I spoke without thinking.
Hello?
Yes.
What?
What’s happening?
What happened? Is it about Lupita?
My mom’s hurt. She’s in really bad shape, she’s at the hospital.
What? Go with her!
You can’t come in.
We’re looking for Lupita Valdés. She was brought here with a bullet wound.
Are you her family?
Yes, she’s my mom.
That’s correct, she has a bullet in her back. She’s in the OR.
-How is she?
-How is she?
I can’t give you more information.
No, tell me the truth.
She’s in a delicate state, it’s all I can say.
That can’t be.
No, I have to go in
No, no, no. You can’t come in.
Let’s see, you’re here every day. You’re a nurse. What do you think?
You have to be prepared for the worst.
tweezers... We have internal bleeding. Scalpel!
What if we go up to your room?
No.
Baby, why not? We just made up. I brought you your flowers. Come on, let’s go
No, no.
Let’s see.
What’s up?
Seriously, since I got here you’ve been super weird. What’s going on with you?
I...
Hello?
Val! My mom…
What happened with your mom?
Val, please. I need you to come. It’s urgent.
Okay.
What do you mean you’re leaving, where?
I’m leaving, I’m going to the hospital, to be with Juliana because of her mom.
What happened to her mom?
Well, I don’t know.
Love, how come you don’t know, if she just called you.
Yes, she called me, but she’s in crisis. I wasn’t going to ask her what happened to her mom.
Okay, relax. I’ll go with you
No! I don’t want you to come with me! Look, I’m going by myself.
You have no business being there, especially not after the way you spoke to Juliana.
No, well…
“No, well” nothing.
Well, let me drive you, love, let me drive you.
No!
Look, I want to do this on my own, okay?
But if you need anything you can call me.
No! Seriously!
Juliana. You have to be calm. Everything is going to be okay.
How can I be calm if my mom is in there, and they won’t even let me see her.
I’m sure the doctors are doing everything they can.
What will I do if she dies?
I don’t have anyone else.
Well, I...I’m here for anything you need.
You know what? Thank you Panchito. I need to take a walk.
Are you okay? Let’s see…
Thank you.
Can I help you with anything, do you need food...?
No, it’s okay. I’m just a little dizzy.
My mom is in surgery and I haven’t slept a wink.
What happened?
She was shot.
She’s...in really bad shape.
I’m really sorry.
I’m sure she’ll get better.
Thank you.
And what are you doing here?
My son is hospitalized, he has a serious condition.
His life is in the hands of the doctors too.
I’m really sorry.
Thank you. Do you need anything else?
No, I’m okay. Thank you.
I’ll sit down in a bit and order something to eat.
Good luck.
Thank you.
Her vitals are not stabilizing.
She won’t stop losing blood.
She’s crashing!
Crash car! Quick!
Clear!
shock
No vital signs.
go up 150
Clear!

Val.
What happened?
They found my mom shot on the street.
How is she?
She’s in surgery right now, but they say it’s serious.
Okay, huh...You have to be calm.
Don’t stress. Everything is going to go well, okay?
I don’t know, Val. I feel like the doctors aren’t telling me the truth.
Doctor! How is she?
How is my mom?
Are you done with surgery?
We were able to remove the bullet, but her condition is still complicated.
Okay, but she’s going to live, right?
We’re doing everything we can to make sure of that.
Can I see her, please?
She’s in recovery right now. Please be patient. You’ll be able to see her in a while. Excuse me.
Val.
Go rest.
No.
How can you think I’ll leave you here alone?
Val. Go to sleep.
Besides, only one person can stay here.
It makes no sense you’ll sleep for no reason
Do you promise that if anything happens, no matter the hour, you’ll call me?
ok? and I come
I promise.
I care about you. I care about you...a lot.
Juls, we need to talk about what happened today.
Val, no. Please.
Why?
Not right now.
I’m sorry, forgive me.
I’m sorry. I really have the worst timing. I’m sorry.
Good night, ladies.
Valentina...it’s nice you’re accompanying your friend. But at home, do they know you’re here?
So, how do I know she’s dead?
Because I hit her, boss. I swear. I hit her.
Well, until I see the body, I don’t believe you.
So you can go from morgue to morgue until you find her and you take a selfie with her.
Look, I already told you everything. I know as much as you do. When the cops found her, they brought her here.
Okay, but do they know if she’s able to tell us where they held her captive?
We still haven’t been able to talk to her.
And who’s this guy?
“This guy” is a friend of the family.
Okay.
Well, if Miss Lupita makes it out of this one, Alacran’s people won’t rest until she’s dead.
Well, Montilla, you really have no tact...in this life. Zero.
I’m sorry for being so blunt, but in a situation like this...it’s better to be like this.
So what do you suggest we do?
For starters I’m going to leave one of my men at the entrance to keep an eye on her day and night.
But as soon as she wakes up, you call me. It’s of the utmost importance I talk to her.
Okay. As soon as she wakes up, I’ll call you.
This is a very delicate situation.
Be very careful.
Good night. Thanks for the coffee.
You’re welcome
Here, Panchito.
Take it, Panchito.
No, it’s okay. I’ll go get another one.
Miss Valentina.
Jacob.
What are you doing here?
Alirio had a problem...so I came for you.
ok, ok, thank you
Should I take you home?
I don’t know. I have no idea.
I don’t want to leave my friend alone, but I’m drained.
Yeah, someone mentioned your friend’s mom had a problem.
Huh, yes. A huge problem. She got shot and..
How is she?
I don’t know. In recovery.
That’s good.
You know what worries me the most?
We were told that these people usually come back to finish the job, I mean...What’s that supposed to mean?
We have to be calm. The worst part is over. And we have to be thankful too.
Yes, you’re right. I can’t imagine everything my mom went through the past few days.
You really care about her, don’t you?
Yes. The truth is I do.
Well thank you so much, Panchito,
really. For being here, taking care of her, and everything. I think...
my mom was needing someone that cared about her.
And that’s me. I promise you that.
Go rest, Panchito. It’s late.
Yes. I’m not staying because they won’t let us both stay, but take care of her.
I will.
See you tomorrow.
Goodbye.
Mis Valentina...
Nothing. I just wanted to tell you that you should try to be strong and that your friend’s mom is going to be okay.
Thank you.
For your kind words, and the advice.
The ride home. The whole “mom” topic makes me a little sensitive so...
Do you want anything to eat?
No. No, thank you. Stay calm.
Blessed be God that Lupita is better.
The doctors say her condition is delicate, but at least she’s stable.
Thank you.
Hey, it’s late. You should close up.
Yes, as soon as the guys finish up cleaning the kitchen we’ll get going. And you too! Let’s go!
Thank you, Perla.
So, dude. Lupita made it, didn’t she? You better start telling me where she is, because I have a bullet here that’s asking about her. Take him!
I don´t know anything
What are you doing?
Hey! Munchies before bed.
Munchies, huh?
Make yourself one, you’re in your house.
No, just something to drink.
Thank you.
What were you doing? I saw you arriving with Jacobo
Here.
Thanks.
I was with Juliana.
keeping her company with her mom’s hospital situation.
Is she okay?
No, I don’t know, I don’t even want to talk about it. What about you? I saw Mayela was on TV again.
What’s up with that?
Nah. It was a misunderstanding. We’re just friends.
-What's?
-For years now. Here.
You know what’s going on? It’s that you always have this dumb face, but particularly right now you have the biggest dumb face.
I thought, I don’t know, maybe you’re in love. Maybe.
And who told you it’s because of Mayela?
Tell me! If you have another conquest you have to tell me. If I’m going to have a sister-in-law I need to know, because what if I don’t like her? Do I know her?
No. I’d rather not tell you anything until everything is defined. But what I can tell you is that it’s been a while since I felt like this about a woman.
And I want to be careful, go slow.
Okay. Well...no matter what, it makes me happy. To see you well. It’s amazing. Your whole face changed.
You know...for a moment I thought you were gay.
What?
Really! I mean, you didn’t go on any dates with girls and..
How could I be gay?
What? There’s nothing wrong with that.
I know there’s nothing wrong with that, but no. I like women.
Okay.
And you?
What?
How are things with Lucho?
They...are. Which is something.
That doesn’t sound good.
Because we’re not good.
I mean…I get bored with him, we have nothing to talk about.
I feel like meeting new people. That’s the truth.
I think as long as you’re honest with him, that’s the most important thing.
Besides, I’ve noticed you’re different these days. Like there’s something you haven’t told me.
Me?
Hmm.
Me?
Yes.
Me?
Yup.
Okay. You know what? Maybe you’re not the only one that has secrets.
Well, it must be a good secret, because you seem happier.
In a better mood. So whatever it is that’s happening with you, I’m glad.
And you know you can count on me.
Always.
Well, I say when things are more defined, we should tell each other more, what do you think?
Okay.
Yes?
Yes. When things are ready.
Pinky promise? Ugh, you do our handshake horribly.
Like this?
No. It has to explode!
Eat your bread. Look at all these slices you prepared.
Pancho, go see who it is.
Pancho.
Oh my God, Panchito, what happened?
Dad!
See how they left you.
We should take him to the hospital.
Bring the first aid kit.
No. No hospitals. It’s not necessary.
What happened?
I got mugged, outside of work. And since I didn’t have money they took it out on me.
Mom? Mommy. You’re awake.
Mom. How are you?
Mija.
calm down
I thought I’d never see you again.
No. You can’t leave me alone again, do you hear me?
It was my fault.
Mom, why do you say that?
It was stupid, to put my cellphone number to look for El Chino.
Mom…
Those sons of bitches found me because of that. It was my fault.
Mom, calm down.
calm down.
You’re okay now.
I won’t look for him anymore.
We won’t see him again.
Hello.
What happened to you?
It’s so good that you’re awake.
Look at the state you’re in.
What happened to you? Who beat you up?
The same people that grabbed Lupita.
What?
Yes. I was outside of Perla’s restaurant. They grabbed me, they beat me.
They wanted to know if you were alive or dead.
Those thugs won’t stop until I’m dead.
Mom, calm down. We’re okay here.
They’re doing it to get back at Chino. When I was kidnapped, he called them.
El Chino appeared?
Yes. They said they were going to meet in San Antonio, but I think El Chino played a trick on them.
Mom, of course he wasn’t going to sacrifice himself for you.
No. He’s angry. He’s going to kill me. They’re going to find me.
Mom, calm down. Nobody is going to find us. Hear me out.
You didn’t say anything, did you?
No, how can you think that? They’d have to kill me first.
Juli, they’re going to find me. Get me out of here.
Mom, no. Calm down. Please,
get out of here
-Please, don’t make me leave. Don’t make me leave.
-No, no, I'm not leaving
let her do her job
No! why?
Juli, don’t go! Juli! Don’t go! Juli!
I can’t believe she woke up, that’s amazing news! And how was she?
She’s better, but she’s really worried. And then Panchito showed up, all beat up. And he said it was the same men that kidnapped her.
The kidnappers are still looking for your mom?
Yes. He said they want to know if she’s alive or dead,
but he says he didn’t say anything
And are you sure he didn’t say anything?
Yes, yes, I’m sure. But I’m just really worried about my mom’s safety. I don’t know.
We have to protect your mom, Juls. Remember we were told that these people usually come back to finish the job.
You know what? I’m going there, okay? Because...
No, Valentina. You’re forbidden to come here. The cop said it’s dangerous, and he’s right.
Juliana, I don’t care what the cops say. Okay?
Boss. He just left the hospital
Very good, Carmelo, very good.
El Chino probably has a guilty conscience and that’s why he showed up. That’s good.
He won’t show up.
Why do you say that?
Because I know my husband.
Besides, I have a bad feeling.
I’m going to get killed.
Why don’t you let me go?
No, ma'am. That can’t happen.
If I let you go, I'm the one who’ll get killed.
In case you change your mind.
No. No.
The last thing I want to do right now is drink.
He’s not picking up.
I swear if he’s not picking up it’s because he’s already done something to my mom.
Hey, no. Don’t say those things, okay?
We have to think positively or...we’re going to feel bad.
It’s just...you have no idea how much I hate my dad. Seriously, I hate him!
Everything we’re going through is his fault. And on top of that he dissapears, the son of a…
swear, I don’t know what I’ll do if something happens to my mom.
I don’t have anyone.... I’m alone.
Listen...
I know nothing replaces a mom.
But you’re not alone.
You have me.
What do you think about swimming for a little bit to distract ourselves?
Right now?
Well, if you’re not going to give alcohol a chance, at least give it to water, right?
Okay.
I’ll go get the bathing suits.
Okay, enough. Let’s stop thinking about everything...
Let’s try to have fun for a second, and relax. What do you think?
-Okay
-Yes.
Just a little bit, please smile
Do you want to practice floating like last time?
Do I start?
Aha.
Relax.
Don’t let go of me, please. Don’t let go of me.
You did it. You’re doing it.
No. No, no, no. Don’t let go of me.
No. Okay
I’m going to let go of you.
No, no.
Just a little bit.
You’re doing it... Don’t laugh... Concentrate.

Good afternoon.
Hello. Are you a friend of Valentina’s?
Yes, I’m friends with Valentina.
Oh, that’s great.
I’m sorry, but I have to go.
And you’re leaving by yourself? Walking? No way. Look, my driver is coming. We can give you a ride
Thank you so much, but I think I’m better off walking. Thank you.
-Good.

What happened with your mom?
Val, please. I need you to come. It’s urgent.
Okay.
What do you mean you’re leaving, where?
I’m leaving, I’m going to the hospital, to be with Juliana because of her mom.
What happened to her mom?
Well, I don’t know.
Love, how come you don’t know, if she just called you.
Yes, she called me, but she’s in crisis. I wasn’t going to ask her what happened to her mom.
Okay, relax. I’ll go with you
No! I don’t want you to come with me! Look, I’m going by myself.
You have no business being there, especially not after the way you spoke to Juliana.

“No, well” nothing.
Well, let me drive you, love, let me drive you.
No!
Look, I want to do this on my own, okay?
But if you need anything you can call me.
No! Seriously!
Juliana. You have to be calm. Everything is going to be okay.
How can I be calm if my mom is in there, and they won’t even let me see her.
I’m sure the doctors are doing everything they can.
What will I do if she dies?
I don’t have anyone else.
Well, I...I’m here for anything you need.
You know what? Thank you Panchito. I need to take a walk.
Are you okay? Let’s see…
Thank you.
Can I help you with anything, do you need food...?
No, it’s okay. I’m just a little dizzy.
My mom is in surgery and I haven’t slept a wink.
What happened?
She was shot.
She’s...in really bad shape.
I’m really sorry.
I’m sure she’ll get better.
Thank you.
And what are you doing here?
My son is hospitalized, he has a serious condition.
His life is in the hands of the doctors too.
I’m really sorry.
Thank you. Do you need anything else?
No, I’m okay. Thank you.
I’ll sit down in a bit and order something to eat.
Good luck.
Thank you.

Okay, huh...You have to be calm.
Don’t stress. Everything is going to go well, okay?
I don’t know, Val. I feel like the doctors aren’t telling me the truth.
Doctor! How is she?
How is my mom?
Are you done with surgery?
We were able to remove the bullet, but her condition is still complicated.
Okay, but she’s going to live, right?
We’re doing everything we can to make sure of that.
Can I see her, please?
She’s in recovery right now. Please be patient. You’ll be able to see her in a while. Excuse me.
Val.
Go rest.
No.
How can you think I’ll leave you here alone?
Val. Go to sleep.
Besides, only one person can stay here.
It makes no sense you’ll sleep for no reason
Do you promise that if anything happens, no matter the hour, you’ll call me?
ok? and I come
I promise.
I care about you. I care about you...a lot.
Juls, we need to talk about what happened today.
Val, no. Please.
Why?
Not right now.
I’m sorry, forgive me.
I’m sorry. I really have the worst timing. I’m sorry.
Good night, ladies.
Valentina...it’s nice you’re accompanying your friend. But at home, do they know you’re here?
So, how do I know she’s dead?

“This guy” is a friend of the family.
Okay.
Well, if Miss Lupita makes it out of this one, Alacran’s people won’t rest until she’s dead.
Well, Montilla, you really have no tact...in this life. Zero.
I’m sorry for being so blunt, but in a situation like this...it’s better to be like this.
So what do you suggest we do?
For starters I’m going to leave one of my men at the entrance to keep an eye on her day and night.
But as soon as she wakes up, you call me. It’s of the utmost importance I talk to her.
Okay. As soon as she wakes up, I’ll call you.
This is a very delicate situation.
Be very careful.
Good night. Thanks for the coffee.
You’re welcome
Here, Panchito.
Take it, Panchito.
No, it’s okay. I’ll go get another one.
Miss Valentina.
Jacob.
What are you doing here?
Alirio had a problem...so I came for you.
ok, ok, thank you
Should I take you home?
I don’t know. I have no idea.
I don’t want to leave my friend alone, but I’m drained.
Yeah, someone mentioned your friend’s mom had a problem.
Huh, yes. A huge problem. She got shot and..
How is she?
I don’t know. In recovery.
That’s good.
You know what worries me the most?
We were told that these people usually come back to finish the job, I mean...What’s that supposed to mean?
We have to be calm. The worst part is over. And we have to be thankful too.
Yes, you’re right. I can’t imagine everything my mom went through the past few days.
You really care about her, don’t you?
Yes. The truth is I do.
Well thank you so much, Panchito,
really. For being here, taking care of her, and everything. I think...
my mom was needing someone that cared about her.
And that’s me. I promise you that.
Go rest, Panchito. It’s late.
Yes. I’m not staying because they won’t let us both stay, but take care of her.
I will.
See you tomorrow.
Goodbye.
Mis Valentina...
Nothing. I just wanted to tell you that you should try to be strong and that your friend’s mom is going to be okay.
Thank you.
For your kind words, and the advice.
The ride home. The whole “mom” topic makes me a little sensitive so...
Do you want anything to eat?
No. No, thank you. Stay calm.
Blessed be God that Lupita is better.
The doctors say her condition is delicate, but at least she’s stable.
Thank you.
Hey, it’s late. You should close up.
Yes, as soon as the guys finish up cleaning the kitchen we’ll get going. And you too! Let’s go!
Thank you, Perla.
So, dude. Lupita made it, didn’t she? You better start telling me where she is, because I have a bullet here that’s asking about her. Take him!
I don´t know anything
What are you doing?
Hey! Munchies before bed.
Munchies, huh?
Make yourself one, you’re in your house.
No, just something to drink.
Thank you.
What were you doing? I saw you arriving with Jacobo
Here.
Thanks.
I was with Juliana.
keeping her company with her mom’s hospital situation.
Is she okay?
No, I don’t know, I don’t even want to talk about it. What about you? I saw Mayela was on TV again.
What’s up with that?
Nah. It was a misunderstanding. We’re just friends.
-What's?
-For years now. Here.
You know what’s going on? It’s that you always have this dumb face, but particularly right now you have the biggest dumb face.
I thought, I don’t know, maybe you’re in love. Maybe.
And who told you it’s because of Mayela?
Tell me! If you have another conquest you have to tell me. If I’m going to have a sister-in-law I need to know, because what if I don’t like her? Do I know her?
No. I’d rather not tell you anything until everything is defined. But what I can tell you is that it’s been a while since I felt like this about a woman.
And I want to be careful, go slow.
Okay. Well...no matter what, it makes me happy. To see you well. It’s amazing. Your whole face changed.
You know...for a moment I thought you were gay.
What?
Really! I mean, you didn’t go on any dates with girls and..
How could I be gay?
What? There’s nothing wrong with that.
I know there’s nothing wrong with that, but no. I like women.
Okay.
And you?
What?
How are things with Lucho?
They...are. Which is something.
That doesn’t sound good.
Because we’re not good.
I mean…I get bored with him, we have nothing to talk about.
I feel like meeting new people. That’s the truth.
I think as long as you’re honest with him, that’s the most important thing.
Besides, I’ve noticed you’re different these days. Like there’s something you haven’t told me.
Me?
Hmm.
Me?
Yes.
Me?
Yup.
Okay. You know what? Maybe you’re not the only one that has secrets.
Well, it must be a good secret, because you seem happier.
In a better mood. So whatever it is that’s happening with you, I’m glad.
And you know you can count on me.
Always.
Well, I say when things are more defined, we should tell each other more, what do you think?
Okay.
Yes?
Yes. When things are ready.
Pinky promise? Ugh, you do our handshake horribly.
Like this?
No. It has to explode!
Eat your bread. Look at all these slices you prepared.
Pancho, go see who it is.
Pancho.
Oh my God, Panchito, what happened?
Dad!
See how they left you.
We should take him to the hospital.
Bring the first aid kit.
No. No hospitals. It’s not necessary.
What happened?
I got mugged, outside of work. And since I didn’t have money they took it out on me.
Mom? Mommy. You’re awake.
Mom. How are you?
Mija.
calm down
I thought I’d never see you again.
No. You can’t leave me alone again, do you hear me?
It was my fault.
Mom, why do you say that?
It was stupid, to put my cellphone number to look for El Chino.
Mom…
Those sons of bitches found me because of that. It was my fault.
Mom, calm down.
calm down.
You’re okay now.
I won’t look for him anymore.
We won’t see him again.
Hello.
What happened to you?
It’s so good that you’re awake.
Look at the state you’re in.
What happened to you? Who beat you up?
The same people that grabbed Lupita.
What?
Yes. I was outside of Perla’s restaurant. They grabbed me, they beat me.
They wanted to know if you were alive or dead.
Those thugs won’t stop until I’m dead.
Mom, calm down. We’re okay here.
They’re doing it to get back at Chino. When I was kidnapped, he called them.
El Chino appeared?
Yes. They said they were going to meet in San Antonio, but I think El Chino played a trick on them.
Mom, of course he wasn’t going to sacrifice himself for you.
No. He’s angry. He’s going to kill me. They’re going to find me.
Mom, calm down. Nobody is going to find us. Hear me out.
You didn’t say anything, did you?
No, how can you think that? They’d have to kill me first.
Juli, they’re going to find me. Get me out of here.
Mom, no. Calm down. Please,
get out of here
-Please, don’t make me leave. Don’t make me leave.
-No, no, I'm not leaving
let her do her job
No! why?
Juli, don’t go! Juli! Don’t go! Juli!
I can’t believe she woke up, that’s amazing news! And how was she?
She’s better, but she’s really worried. And then Panchito showed up, all beat up. And he said it was the same men that kidnapped her.
The kidnappers are still looking for your mom?
Yes. He said they want to know if she’s alive or dead,
but he says he didn’t say anything
And are you sure he didn’t say anything?
Yes, yes, I’m sure. But I’m just really worried about my mom’s safety. I don’t know.
We have to protect your mom, Juls. Remember we were told that these people usually come back to finish the job.
You know what? I’m going there, okay? Because...
No, Valentina. You’re forbidden to come here. The cop said it’s dangerous, and he’s right.
Juliana, I don’t care what the cops say. Okay?
Boss. He just left the hospital
Very good, Carmelo, very good.
