La Reina del Sur (2011–2019): Season 2, Episode 15 - El primer beso - full transcript

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

PREVIOUSLY...

I don't like calling it...

Russian roulette.

Grab the gun.

We're special agents with the police.

Put your hands up!

There's Flores.

One more time and you'll be rid of us.

Get back!

Please, do what they say!
They're crazy!



Don't worry.
Put it down.

That's fine, Francesco,

but it has to be somewhere private.

See you soon.
Just tell me where.

See you at 9:00.

I'll send you the address.

See you soon.

Well, well.

Teresa Mendoza's little clone.

Yours isn't whole either.

What are you talking about?

You're missing half your heart

because you never knew your father.

And you never will.



Can you imagine?

A woman capable of killing
the father of her own child

is capable of anything.

Did my mother kill my father?

What do you think?

He died before you were born.

How'd he die?

In an accident.

Your mother is a drug trafficker
and a murderer!

Don't you get it?

You don't even know
what your last names are.

You are Teo Aljarafe's daughter.

Your mother is Teresa Mendoza,

and your real last names
are Aljarafe and Mendoza.

MALAGA, SPAIN

Ma'am, shall I heat up your dinner?

I didn't hear you, Charo.

No, I don't want any more.
Please, take it away.

I haven't eaten either.

I can't stop thinking about the girls.

"The girls. The girls."

The girls are all grown up,
and they know what they're doing.

The full brunt of the law is
going to come down on them,

and I won't lift a finger
till the water's to their necks

so they'll learn the importance

and the pride of being an Aljarafe.

Pepe?

What's going on, Pepe?
Why are you here at this hour?

Now what?

What the fuck are you doing here?

Get out of my house!

Get used to it
because we're not going anywhere

until you pay for my son's death!

Charo, call Captain Flores immediately.

Take her away and lock her in a room.

Don't touch me!
You'll regret this.

You'll be sorry you messed
with Cayetana Aljarafe,

I swear to you,
you gypsy piece of shit.

Move it, you old battle-ax!

Not another word!

Don't touch me!

I told you not to push me!

Shut her up.

Touch me again and you're dead.

You don't know what I'm capable of.

Be quiet, you feeble old hag.

This is my home and I will not
be quiet, you idiot!

This house is mine now.

From now on,
you'll have to live with us.

This house has belonged to
the Aljarafes for generations.

You piece of shit gypsies
think you can take it?

And this piece of shit gypsy's
going to break your face.

I call the shots now, understood?

What is she doing?

Take all the jewelry and clothing.

You thief!

Look that way.

Charo, they're taking my clothes.

Charo!

Have a seat.

Hey, get up!

This one will look good on you.
It's yours.

Push me!

And to think that my blood
was about to mix with yours.

Know what I say to that?

Fuck Juanito and his whole family!

I'd kill you if I didn't have
to plan Juanito's funeral!

- What?
- But I swear this isn't over.

You're going to suffer
twice as much as he did.

Keep your hands off!
Let go off me!

Don't let these two hags out.

I hate these clothes.

I'm going to look like one
of these girls on TV.

What's wrong?

Just thinking about Grandma.
I feel bad for her.

She spent nine years
looking for the Mexican.

She'd die if she found out
we were with her.

Grandma rewrote history to her liking.

You heard what Captain Flores
and Teresa said.

Dad betrayed Teresa over money.

His greed surpassed his love for her,
if he ever even loved her.

It was probably the same with Mom

while he was sleeping
with Teresa, the jerk!

Yeah, Teresa's really stuck
her neck out to save our lives.

She's the only person
who's lent us a hand.

Rocio.

I was wrong about her
and I was wrong about you.

Forgive me.
I'm really sorry.

There's nothing to forgive.

The important thing now is leaving Spain

without the cops catching us.

Relax, okay?

The Mexican's a badass.
She'll get us out of this.

She said we had to leave Spain.

You think she wants to
take us to Mexico?

I don't know anything about that country.

What would we do there?

I don't know.
Live freely?

There's no time to think
about that now, Paloma.

I'm going to take a shower.
I'm exhausted.

Go ahead.

Ivanovich deserved what you did to him.

You really honored the name
Russian roulette.

What would you have done
if it hadn't gone off the second time?

"It's easy to dodge the spear,

but not the hidden dagger."

That's an old Chinese proverb.

That traitor was sentenced to die.

All I did, was make it...

more exciting.

What are you going to do
about the girls?

Get them out of Spain.

Once we're safe in Mexico,
we'll go from there.

The Italian did a great job
rescuing them.

They were very impressed.

Yes.

In fact, I'm going to have
dinner with him.

I want to...

clear up some doubts.

You look very pretty.

Well,

I want to see if I can
get something out of him.

I know you don't trust him
even though he passed

that famous internet test of yours.

I trust your instincts,

and I want to set him up,

so I can get something out of him.

Keep your phone handy.

Yeah, I've got it right here.

- In case you need help.
- Uh-huh.

Your driver's at the door.

I'm leaving.

You know you're
my favorite Russian, right?

You know you're

my favorite queen, right?

Goodbye.

Did I say that right?

See you later.

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO

Isn't Jimena going to eat?

She went out.

She's eating with a friend from school.

Just like that?

Get with the program, sweetie.

I think it's weird
she prefers to spend time

with that friend we've never met.

Sweetie.

It's Dad.

How are you?

Look at how pretty you are.
You look like me.

How...

Come in, Dad.

How about you, Carmencita?

Ready to talk?

- Would you like something to eat, Dad?
- Please, honey.

- We made steak in chili sauce.
- Give us a moment.

Thank you.

All right.

Where'd you leave your lapdog?

Is this how you're going to act?

This is serious.

I know.

Whenever you have dirty work,

you always send your puppet
to do it first.

But nobody's going to pull
a fast one on me.

Not after so many years.

You know what?
I don't have much time.

Let's get to the point.

- Do you have some lover expecting you?
- Again?

I've waited 15 years.
She can wait 15 minutes.

Listen, Carmencita,
the past is in the past.

I come in peace, not to fight.

But if it's war you want,
war you'll get.

Stop fucking around and sign this paper.

Come on.

It's my sister, sweetie.

What's wrong?

What took you so long?

I called your office
and they said you were eating here.

We need to talk in person.

- Is someone here?
- No.

What do you need?

Marietta Lancaster's airing a show

in which she'll make Epifanio look bad.

Yes, I know.
I listened to her this morning.

- So?
- So what?

Don't worry about it, Veva.

If she does,
we'll sue her for defamation.

Oh, please.
Marietta collects lawsuits.

- What?
- He was acquitted, right?

Epifanio was acquitted of all the
charges Teresa Martinez leveled, right?

What's wrong with you?

You read the judge's ruling yourself.

He got out for one simple reason,

and because of that
I'm his campaign manager.

Sit down and relax.

What's important is
the upcoming interview.

What about it?

I don't think it's smart
to announce your engagement

- after what Marietta said.
- No way.

In fact, he and I must announce it
or she will on her show.

She knows?

Yes, she and I don't know
how many others.

Damn it.

Well, we'll have to change strategies.

What strategy, damn it?

Epifanio was on board with it.

We can't hide our relationship anymore.

No, I know Epifanio,
and I'm completely certain

discretion is what he wants,
which I agree with.

- Uh-huh.
- Ask him.

I've been trying to all morning,
but I can't.

He's not answering his phone.

Besides, he's a man of his word

and he'll be on the show tonight, right?

Did he say something else?

Okay...

what's going on with you two?

He's here, right?

You think he's here?

He's hiding, isn't he?

- What are you doing, Veva?
- Epifanio!

- What are you doing?
- Let me through.

Absolutely not!

It's not Epifanio, it's a woman.

- Sure, a woman.
- Yes, it's a woman.

What's her name?

I don't know.
I just spent the night with her.

Call it a sexual accident.

Yeah, right.

- That's why you're making her lunch.
- Yes.

- I'd like to meet my sister-in-law.
- I'm not letting you in!

Show some respect,
Goddamn it!

OK.

You're going to stay?

What are you doing?

I'm waiting for Epifanio,
who will probably come here.

He sees you more than me.

Maybe then I can meet
your "sexual accident."

Veva, Epifanio called and said
he'd meet you backstage

after a meeting he was attending.

Go over there and relax.
Everything will be all right very soon.

You just had to make so much noise?

So much noise.

So this is how you're going to act?

Like a spoiled child?

Talk about the pot
calling the kettle black.

Who was the child in our relationship?

Who was the one always after
a new piece of ass to sample?

All the while I put up with it,

like I was taught.

Faithful until death.

And for what?

You still ran off
with your sister-in-law.

And as if that weren't enough,
you had a child,

God rest his soul.

Enough.

Settle down with all that.

It's not my fault you wanted to behave

like such a selfless woman.
But your hands weren't tied.

Why didn't you ever ask
for a divorce before?

Because you knew full well
you could come back,

that I'd never judge you,

and that I'd welcome you
with open arms because I'm a coward.

Isn't life funny?

You came back after all,
and you need me.

Look...

I'll make this simple.

Let's hear it.

You can't teach an old dog new tricks,

so I'm going to let you
keep having your flings.

Sleep with as many women as you can.

I don't care,
I'm used to sleeping alone.

But to the people,
I am and will be your wife,

and if, God-willing,
you become president,

I shall be First Lady of Mexico.

Oh, shit! First lady!

What are you talking about?

How can you think that?

You know what people want
in a first lady?

Reliability.

Like buying a new car, you understand?

If you want speed and luxury,
you get yourself a sports car.

Now, if you want reliability,

you get yourself
a Japanese or German car.

Something that won't leave you stranded.

But as you might understand,

nobody's going to buy
a broken down, old jalopy.

Shut your mouth.

Look,

you say I'm the child,

but you're acting
like those stupid brats

that can't stop watching TV

and who think they can become princesses
when they're nothing but frogs.

Now, if you were a smart,
educated frog with class,

that'd be one thing.

But you don't even speak English!

So how would that work?

Quit fucking around
and sign these papers.

Don't piss me off.

You know better than anyone

that a pissed off
Epifanio Vargas is an animal.

You have one week to sign.

We can do this the easy way...

or in a way you won't like.

I'll leave that there for you.

Sweetie.

I'll take a rain check on that steak.

MALAGA, SPAIN

ALJARAFE SISTERS SUSPECTS
IN DEATH OF BULLFIGHTER

Good evening.

...is out, so it'll take
around 15 minutes.

Okay.

No, we're out of that one.

We'll be getting more next week.

Uh-huh.

Okay, bye.

Are you all right, miss?

Yes.

- Is this everything?
- Yes.

- That'll be...
- I'll also take one of...

I'm sorry. I'm so clumsy.

Don't worry about it.

Francesco.

You look gorgeous.

Thank you.

Thanks for coming, Maria.

You know what?

Call me Teresa from now on.

I've hidden my name
and identity for many years,

and you and I have become close,

so, nice to meet you.

My name's Teresa Mendoza.

I don't need any other explanations.

Teresa Mendoza, nice to meet you.

I'm Francesco Belmondo.

I know you better than you can imagine.

I'm very observant.

You're like this
because of your daughter, right?

I can't stop thinking of her.

All I can do is think of
what she might be doing,

if she's eating well
and being treated well.

Those criminals won't hurt her.

You don't know them.

They need you.

And Sofia's their one way

to get you to do what they want.

I wish it were that easy.

Let's have dinner.
I don't want to be back late.

We can dine here.

This is for us.

Everything's ready.
Please, follow me.

Thank you.

Come.

Thank you.

Enjoy the night.

Thanks.

Middle Eastern food,

like in Arabian Nights.

Well, I'm no Scheherazade,
and you're not the sultan.

Don't decapitate me.

Scheherazade always figured out
how to keep the sultan at bay.

That's true.

On the plane,
I discovered your passion for tequila.

I was told this is the very best.

Yes, it is.

Tequila's always been there

in the best and worst of times.

And...

what would you call this?

One of the best?

Of course it's one of the best.

But you have to drink, too.

I don't drink alcohol.

On that same flight on which
you saw me drink tequila,

you ordered a whiskey.
I haven't forgotten.

Yes, to join you, but I didn't drink it.

I don't trust people who don't drink.

Why not, if I may ask?

Because I feel like they're scared.

Scared of letting go, scared of,
I don't know, talking.

A drunk says what he's thought of soberly.

For me, that's not the reason.

I simply don't like the taste of alcohol.

I insist.
Have some tequila.

Don't say no.

Please, Teresa.

Please.

Fine, some tequila.

If I have no choice.

All set.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

All of it.

You can do it.

I'll get to the point.

I agreed to have dinner with you

because I want you to tell me to my face

while looking me in the eyes
what you're hiding from me.

Pass me the bottle of tequila.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

I'm going to be
in charge of this bottle.

Hand me your glass.

Oh, Teresa, but...

Yes?

Something you want to tell me?

Here.

Cheers.

Bottoms up.

I don't know what you mean
when you say I'm hiding something.

I'll be more direct.

Did you know Teo Aljarafe?

Teo Aljarafe?

Does he have something to do
with the girls we rescued today?

Did you know him or not?

No, the first time I ever heard
that last name was today.

There's a woman

that contacted me in Italy.

She is the grandmother
of the Aljarafe girls.

Do you know Cayetana Aljarafe?

Dozens of detectives
have been to this house.

They all promised me the world,
but none of them found her.

The truth is, I'd lost hope.

Finding this woman wasn't easy,

but when I get paid well, I work well.

And every job well done
deserves to be rewarded.

And now, please, give me
everything you've got on the Mexican.

Here you are.

Thank you.

No.

I don't know her
or this Teo you mentioned before.

You know what I see in your eyes?

No. I don't.

Let's see if you can guess.

You agreed to have dinner with me

only because you think I have something
to do with your daughter's kidnapping.

You got it.

Oh, Juanito!
My son!

Why?

I miss you so much, my son!

Where are you, Paloma?

What are you doing?

Are you fucking kidding?

Don't tell me you went out.

Are you crazy?

Did you forget what they told us?

Paloma.

I don't believe it.

Ma'am.

What?

You must see this.

They've brought Juanito.

Juanito?

How? Juanito's dead.

Oh, my God.

Paloma.

What's wrong?

Rocio...

I didn't want to say anything
without being sure,

but I'm pregnant with Juanito's baby.

Oh, God.

Oh, God.

I thought I might be,
but I wanted to be sure.

Pregnant with Juanito's baby.

I'm freaking out.

What am I going to do?
What do I do?

What if this thing's messed up?

I'm the messed up one.
These things are always right.

I missed my period.

You're crazy, Paloma!

How could you go out?

Didn't you hear
what the Russian told us?

What if the cops had caught you?

Who cares?

I don't care about
the cops or about jail.

I'm pregnant, Rocio.

Juanito got me pregnant.

Look at me, Paloma.

You're not going to have
that baby, got it?

Why?

Why did you take him away?

Why?

I'll never see you again!

I'll never see you again, my boy.

I'm going to miss you so much.

What will I do without you?

Why?

Why!

Sorry, Francesco, but...

the truth is,
if you were in my shoes

you would understand.

Right now, I suspect everyone around me.

You know, you're an enigma to me.

What makes you say that?

Because you came into my life
out of nowhere,

and you've helped me

many times
and I don't understand why.

What will you do with the girls?

I think I'll take them to Mexico.

They can't stay here.

When would you leave?

Why don't we talk about you?

No. Me?

No, I'm very boring and...

much too normal.

Tell me about your past.

GHAJAR, LEBANON

Is it that bad that you can't even talk?

No, I've always had a nose for business,
even at an early age.

- That's why...
- Now...

tell me something that I don't know.

Surprise me.

I'm an orphan.

Now you're one of the few who know.

That band of gypsies
has some nerve coming here

to mourn Juanito in my bullring!

- Calm down before you get ill, ma'am.
- I don't feel like calming down.

Damn plague!

Because that's what
those people are, a plague.

And Captain Flores,
who should be here, isn't.

Meanwhile, we're locked in here.
Will this never end?

- I'm going to have a look.
- No, don't look, ma'am.

This is all
my granddaughter Paloma's fault.

She's just as big a whore as her mother.

- Ma'am?
- Charo.

Ma'am?

- I can't breathe.
- What's wrong?

I don't know.

- Ma'am.
- My chest really hurts.

What's wrong?

Help!

Ma'am.

Call an ambulance!

Holy Lady of Death,

protect me from this child.

How about that?

The graffiti version of Mother Teresa.

Teresa my ass.

Believe me,
this kid's got the devil inside her.

I thought you didn't believe it,
that she was all talk.

Well, no,

but better safe than sorry.

She's doing weird things in the room.

Listen, I'll tell you
what she's doing in there.

She's doing kid stuff, because
that's what she is, a child!

She has fun and creates mischief.

You're the crazy one here.

Don't be ridiculous, Batman.

This kid's a bad seed.
She knows what she's doing.

And if Lupo doesn't come soon,
she'll get away.

Let her.
We've planned for everything.

The police are on our side,
and they'd bring her back to us.

Besides, if she gets away,
that's fine by me.

We'd never have to see her again.

And then,
the boss would cut off your balls.

I've had enough of this.
I'm going to drink.

Holy Death,

I belong only to you.

Help me.

I don't want to hurt her anymore.

How about you?

What about your parents?

I'm not an orphan,
but I might as well have been.

My mother died of alcoholism,
and I never knew my father.

He was a Spaniard.

I didn't know either of mine.

Did you look for them?

A lot.

But I never found them.

I wanted to talk about...
something else.

I'm not feeling...

well.

I need a little air.

You okay?

Yes.

I'm officially drunk now.

I may be drunk,
but I know what I'm doing.

I like you...

I like you a lot.

I have to go.

But the night is still young.

I have a lot to do.

Can I help you with anything?

No, you've done enough for me.

When do you go back to Mexico?

As soon as I can.

I have to make some contacts here

and then I rush back
to rescue my daughter.

When do you return to Italy?

Tonight.

I stayed only for you.

I'll let you know when I go to Mexico.

You have my number, so call me
when you get there, okay?

Mm-hmm.

Have a nice trip.

Thank you.

I'll walk you to the car.

There's no need.

ON THE NEXT EPISODE...

That'd be another murder.

Don't even think about having it.

That child cannot be born.

I like you... I like you a lot.

You've got two choices.

Either you fuck us or we fuck you,

and the truth is,
you're really outnumbered.
