La Reina del Sur (2011–2019): Season 2, Episode 33 - El principio del fin - full transcript

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

It's your stuff, boss.

It was you, Teresa.

PREVIOUSLY...

You set us up, bitch!

Piece of shit South Americans!

We Pernases never half-ass anything.

Neither do we, dumb ass.

Stop.

Zoom in.

I want to see details.



Hey, what's your problem?

What's Jonathan doing in your phone?

His name's not Jonathan.

It's Esteban, and he's my friend.

Does Manuela have long or short nails?

Short.

I need you on the next flight here.

See you tomorrow in Culiacán. All right?

Hello?

What's up, Teresa? It's me.

I know it's you.

Your daughter not only found out
you killed her father,

now she also knows I'm the candidate.

Let me tell you something.



You need to speed things up
with what I asked for

so you can take your daughter home
before something bad happens.

Sofía!

Sofía!

You can't escape from this island!

Sofía!

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO

Jimena.

Whoa.

You again?

What do you want?

I want to see your nails.

What?

I know that sounds crazy,
like a question from some...

Pervert! Get lost!

Let me see your hands, you brat.

I need to know if these are real or fake!

Let me go!

Ow! You idiot!

- Ow!
- Let me go!

You almost ripped my nail off, asshole.

Where was the last place you were
before you found the gun in your backpack?

What do you care? Get lost!

Leave or I'll scream. Grandma!

I told you to leave!

Hey!

What's up?

I was at Juan Aldama... my university.

What the hell?
Aren't you going to tell me what happened?

What happened?

You didn't kill the priest.

THE QUEEN OF THE SOUTH

Sofía!

Sofía!

BOAT

Lupo.

Lupo.

Mommy, Mommy.

Mommy.

Soon, sweetie.

Hang in there.

Sofía!

Come back home.

Sofía, it's dangerous at night!

If you're playing, it's not funny.
I'm warning you.

Hello?

What's up, Lupo?

I'm calling you because I need a video
of the girl.

I need her to say the day,
time... you know.

She has to look happy.

And be very careful not to show the water.

Don't give away the place.

Do it fast.

I want this yesterday.
Teresa is asking for it.

That's not possible.

What do you mean?

I'm not asking you. I'm ordering you.

Sofía disappeared.

She disappeared off the island?

Is she a mermaid or something?

I'll record the video
as soon as I find her, okay?

You'd better.

Call Batman so he can help you.

Yes.

Now how do I save my ass?

Sofía!

Tonight is the night.

And it'll be the best night of your life.

You'll see.

Oh, yeah.

My little Batman.

Make me yours now that no one's
watching us.

No, no, no, no.

You're not gonna answer, are you?

No, I'm just going to turn it off.

After this call. This is an emergency.

Hold on.

Hello?

Come here right now.

I'm busy, man. I can't right now.

Sofía disappeared
and I can't find her anywhere.

Then I'm on my way.

Hurry up.

No, no.

Where did you say you were going?

Sorry, Sheila.
If it weren't an emergency, I'd stay.

This is what I call coitus interruptus.

Come. I'll give you a ride.

- Come on.
- No way.

You go do your bullshit
and I'll wait for you right here,

naked in bed.

You probably thought I fell for it.

I only look stupid, babe.

You just want to stay here
because your boss told you

to get information about
the guys taking care of Sofía,

the ones I talk to.

Did I guess right?

How disappointing.

I thought we had something real.

I like you so much,
but you're like all men.

You just want some
wham, bam, thank you, ma'am.

Sweetie, I like you so much and then some,

- but we have to go right now.
- No, no.

If you take me out of this house
I'm not coming back.

- I'm serious, Batman.
- Really, really.

- No.
- We'll be right back!

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Oh, sweetie.

I'm embarrassed about your boss
coming over.

He's probably used to eating
with real silverware

and we don't even have pewter.

Mom, I already told you
that Alejandro is cool.

Don't worry.

Plus, when he tries your food
he's going to fall in love.

I'd rather he fell in love
with your sister Maria Victoria.

Mom!

I'm too old for those jokes.

- Mom, please.
- I'm serious.

If you ask me,
I think he'll propose, Auntie.

So you can share your luck
with the family.

Moocher!

So you wish.

- Look!
- That's enough.

I'll help you, Dad.

Hey, nephew!

Is he really coming
or is this all for nothing?

He was supposed to come last year
and he never did.

He's going to come. He promised.

Like Jesus Christ.

Just like the last two times.

Or was it three?

- It was three times.
- He's coming!

I already told you he was coming.

I hope so, Danny.

I did some research
and your boss is a beefcake.

A beefcake? Show some class!

You can't say he's not.

I saw his picture in the paper
and he's a total babe.

Do you think he has a girlfriend?

Yolanda. You're too young for that man.

Okay, okay.

You guys are going to drive me crazy.

Okay, okay.

- Always arguing...
- He's here!

He's here!

I'll get it, I'll get it!

He's here!

I'll get it.

I'll get it.

Hey!

I'll get it.

Stop, stop!

Enough!

Welcome, sir.

Come in. Make yourself at home.

Family, please meet Mr. Alejandro Alcalá.

Good evening.

Ma'am, Mrs. Celina, happy birthday.

Sir... how sweet.

Just look at how beautiful.

These are my favorites.

Take this.

Sir, welcome!

Allow me to welcome you.

I want you to feel like
one of my children.

Thank you.

I'm going to put them in water
near the Virgin.

Just look at them. They're real.

You outdid yourself, sir.

Good evening.

How beautiful!

He brought wine, too.

- Awesome.
- Thank you.

MÁLAGA, SPAIN

Yes, hello?

It's Teresa Mendoza, ma'am.

What do you want now?

I want to do you another favor.

Your Galician thugs have tapped
your phone.

What nonsense are you saying
about tapped phones?

The Galicians you sent to kill me
came looking for me,

and unfortunately for them, they found me.

What are you trying to say?

Siso and his cousins are dead.

The same will happen to anyone

who comes looking for me in Mexico.

If they find me, that's what will happen.

I know you have my address.
I'm warning you.

Are you threatening me?

Shut up and let me talk.

I don't care if it was Paloma
or anyone else tipping you off.

It's all the same to me.

I'm just warning you.

If you mess with me again,

I won't have any regard for your old age,
got it?

Only the able can threaten me,
not just the willing.

You kidnapped my granddaughters

because you think I was involved
in your daughter's disappearance.

I didn't kidnap anyone.

They wanted to come with me

since you didn't support them
after the bullfighter's death.

She's talking to my grandmother.

I'm just warning you.

Teresita is one of a kind.
No one can shut her up.

You don't know my grandmother.

You've been warned, ma'am.

Fine, Teresa.

You'll hear news from me soon.

When you talk to your grandmother,
warn her, I'm not playing.

Okay. I will.

Sweetie...

how did it go?

Siso and his cousins are dead.

What do you mean?

That's just the tip of the iceberg.

Thank you, Faustino.
If it weren't for you and the coordinates,

we never would've been able to finish
the operation.

I don't know how to thank you.

I know how.

Give me the green light
with your stepdaughter.

This little vampire dug a stake
in a my heart.

I want to ask you for permission
to make her my girlfriend.

Could you stop talking about me
as if I weren't here?

You're such a child.

- You've flipped.
- Have I?

Like Flipper? Or a whale? Let me know.

Teresita's laughing.

That means she gave us permission. Right?

Do whatever you want.

Or whatever she wants.

But don't take advantage of her,
or you'll have to deal with me.

No way.

I just need one more favor, Faustino.

Can you take her to El Submarino, please?

I'll take this babe wherever you want.

One thing, though.

Can I use your restroom?

Of course.

I'm going to grab my bag and change.

Fine.

See you.

What's up, sweetie?

Epifanio, what are you doing here?

We need to talk. Let's go to your room.

Fuck. My room?

I don't want to go anywhere with you.

You didn't have to come here
to show me my daughter's video.

You could've messaged it or some shit.

Hey, take it easy.

We can't be seen together.

You're going to see your daughter's video

whenever the fuck I feel like it.

Got that?

You can't talk to me like I'm one
of your maids.

- Motherfucker.
- Shut up!

- I'll scream.
- So the entire hotel hears?

I'll scream as loud as I fucking want,
okay?

How will I explain being here
with the broad who put me away?

You know what?

I don't give a fuck about your problems.

You disgust me.

I'm stuck in all this
and I can't get out because of you.

What's your problem?

I'm sick and tired of being
the only one getting screwed.

You complain about being in prison
for who knows how many years.

Well, I've been running for 20 years!

Since the moment
you decided to kill Güero Davila.

- I have nothing to say to you.
- No, wait!

Now you've got me started.

You're going to hear me out.

This Teresa right here
isn't the same Teresa from 20 years ago.

This is something you created.

That bullet that killed Güero
also killed the old Teresa.

I swear there hasn't been a single day

that I haven't felt
that fucking void in here.

If you want to kill me twice,
do it already.

I can't feel anything anymore.

You know what?

Your speech was very nice,

but I'm not here to talk about that.

- No?
- No.

I'm leaving.

Yeah, go. Go fuck yourself!

You're a pain in the ass.

See ya.

Teresa.

Zurdo?

What are you doing here?

Why are you talking
to that bastard Epifanio Vargas?

It's one of life's fucked up coincidences.

I walked out of my room,

called the elevator,
and when the door opened, I ran into him.

- Really?
- I swear.

I don't know if he's staying here or what.

He's got plenty of ranches here
in Culiacán.

Then I have no idea.

I don't know if it's something
for his campaign.

I don't know and I don't care.

What'd he say?

Didn't you hear?

From the second he saw me
he started attacking me.

He's got to be stupid to take you on.

I heard everything you told him.

What am I going to do, Zurdo?

With all the power presidents have,
I'll never be able to come back to Mexico.

Calm down. That won't happen.

That's why I came to see you,

to give you answers
about our future together.

That's music to my ears.

There's nothing better
than tequila to seal a deal.

Yeah.

Want to come with me
to the bar I'm opening tonight?

You got it, partner.

Thank you.

You're welcome, my queen.

Where's Teresa?

She's waiting for us at El Submarino.

Let's go, vampy.

- Oh, sir, you shouldn't have.
- Thank you.

Your presence was enough of a gift.

Danilo is always talking about you.

He admires you so much.

- He's an amazing employee.
- Really?

The best of all.

My boy is real go-getter.

He loves his work with you.

He convinced us all to vote for...

Who are we voting for? Mr. Vargas?

Vargas in power!

That's right.

By the way, bro,
your boss is hotter in person

than his pictures on Twitter.

Hold on, sis.

- You follow him on Twitter?
- Yeah.

He doesn't follow me back,
but after today,

I hope he does.

Oh, sis.

Stop, you'll waste it.

Smells good.

Yes, it smells amazing.

Sir, do you have a girlfriend?

Yola!

I'm sorry.

No, don't worry.

My niece speaks before she thinks.

No, I thought about it.

- Really?
- Yes!

Oh, my God! It's a thief!

It's me, guys!

I opened the wine. I almost couldn't.

Hold on, cuz.

Sorry, sir.

We don't have glasses here
and I don't want to ruin the wine.

Danilo, don't call me "sir" here.

We're not at work.

That goes for all of you.

I'm just Alejandro here.

Oh, sir...

Where is wine served?

In whatever cup you've got
and can toast in.

- Right?
- Well said!

Sit down.

You work a lot and just for today
we'll switch roles.

Unbelievable, sir.

You're such a gentleman.

Pour more. That one's mine.

Here you go.

No...

- Me first!
- You're so rude, dummy!

Grown ups first.

- My sister raised you wrong.
- What happens with you?

All right, listen up.

If anyone knows how to run
a place like this, it's me.

Be very careful with handsome clients,

but even more so with the ugly ones.

They are ugly, after all.

Conejo, if they flirt with you,

they're just trying to get
a free drink out of you.

I've been around, honey.

If anyone flirts with me,
they'll get their free drink.

They don't know
that there's more water in here than gin.

My kind of gal!

Ahmed, numbers are the same
in Spanish and Arabic.

How many times are you going to count
that money?

Damn it, Sheila! I lost count. Fuck!

I'm still not used
to counting Mexican currency.

I don't want to miss
a single peso, Understand?

Sheila, this is horrible.
It looks terrible on me.

You can see my belly.

Fuck! I look awful.

Awful?

No one is awful in their 20s.

Listen to this one! You look beautiful.

Too beautiful, I'd say.

They're going to be all over you.

Oh, don't forget about the rule.

All they can touch, and only if you
want them to, is your ass. Nothing else.

And if a drunken client
crosses the line, call security.

Hey, where's your sister?

She probably went running back to Spain
after seeing her outfit.

She'll probably make it work
with those awful boots

and those spiked necklaces.

Ray!

Doesn't Paloma look beautiful?

What a smoke show!

Hey, I'll be watching you
on the security cams.

If any fucker gets frisky, try...

We have security staff for that.

Besides, I don't want you to be seen
around the bar.

Let's go. Head to the video room.

Tessa will soon be here.

All right, all right.

Make the most of your time.

You can't make out
in front of the clients.

Come on!

Let's not forget this is part of a plan.

We need to look credible with the locals.

Come on, Paloma!
Where are the heels I gave you?

Put them on and practice your walk.

Work it. Stick your ass out.

My God!

We're like the Garbage Pail Kids.

Oh, no!

Ahmed, hurry up!

I'm done.

So?

Did you think about my 50-50 proposal?

Here's my counteroffer.

Seventy-thirty,
and we'll sign on it right now.

Seventy-thirty?

I assume you're offering 30, right?

Yeah.

I don't think you understand

what you'd be getting by giving me 50.

You're not just getting my contacts

or my clients in Europe.

You're getting me, what I know,

what I'm worth, my name.

When you look at it like that,
it's a great deal.

Sure, but you're talking

as if you were the only one here
worth anything.

Over here, people respect my name.

They fear it.

Besides, I'm not just giving you 30.

There's more to the offer. Hear me out.

I'll pay for the merch and the shipments.

If anything is seized,
I'll handle the expense.

You don't understand.

When you work with me,
nothing gets seized.

I handle the shipment and the transport.

You're being naive.
There's always a chance it could happen.

You know, Zurdo,

I don't think you see

the size of my offer.

Please explain.

How much money do you think
you'd make in a year in Europe

with the amount of merch you move?

Just give me a number.
Whichever one comes to mind.

A shitload. I'm bad with numbers.

I don't know.

Thirty-three billion euros.

Put plainly, 40 billion dollars.

And that's just Western Europe.

I'm not even counting Russia.

Russia's a whole other ballgame.

Sound good?

I don't know why, sir, but every time
my brother talked about you, sir...

Sorry.

About you, I don't know

I thought you were...

different.

Sir... Sorry!

- No, no.
- Sorry, Alejandro.

Different how?

Wait. Let me guess.

You thought your brother's boss
was someone...

fat and gray-haired.

No.

I thought you'd be...

more snobby.

- More snobby?
- Yes.

- Here.
- Thanks.

More snobby? Just imagine that.

Who wouldn't want a hot boss like you?

That's nice.

Your boss is a fag, right?

Don't tell me you haven't noticed
how he's been looking at you?

He's salivating after you.

You're kidding! He's a fag?

Hey, hey! That's not nice.

Show some respect.

Stop pestering him.
You're going to scare him.

Not at all. You've got an adorable family.

Sir, please! You're used to dealing
with other types of people.

We might be very humble,
but we're good people.

That I guarantee.

For you, ma'am.

Oh, my! No, sir!

I can't believe it!

Thank you! Come here!

Unbelievable!

Good job, sir.

Bravo!

Let's toast!

That was good.

All right! It's mariachi time!

This is so sweet!

Sweetie, give one to Mr. Alcalá.

Sir, have one. Come on.

Cheers.

Bottoms up.

I can drink!

It's already dawn

And in the light of day he gave us

Look already dawned

Thank you so much!

Sir, you're a gem!

Wow, sir!

Zurdo's bodyguard is here.

Teresa will be here soon.

Have a drink, handsome.

I don't drink on the job, but thanks.

I've tried that,
but I don't have the willpower.

All clear.

That's too bad.

Welcome to El Submarino.

Oh, hey. Seems interesting.

I was imagining something more your style.

We're trying to not call attention
to ourselves. This is our facade.

Welcome.

- Teresa, your table is ready.
- Great.

This is Sheila. Nazario.

- Hello.
- Pleasure.

Two, right?

Yes, in Spain. This way.

Ray, keep your eyes on them.

Won't you join us?

I wish, but I have lots of work.

I'm going to bring you a bottle
of the best tequila.

- Thanks, Sheila.
- Yeah!

- Paloma.
- Hello.

This is Paloma. Nazario.

- Nice to meet you, sir.
- Hi.

Hey. Another Spaniard?

Don't we Mexicans make good workers?

Or is Culiacán all of a sudden full
of Spaniards?

We make good workers,
but Spaniards do too.

She's a friend of mine and Rocio's sister.

You've met her.

The vampire girl.

Her.

The Colombian's the one
who wants to sink his teeth on her.

Wasn't he supposed to only
take her to the hotel?

Hey, come on.

I asked Faustino to bring her in a bit.

They should be here soon. Thanks, Paloma.

All right, back to business.

Okay.

Let's see how I can make you trust me.

I'll cover the expenses
if our merch is seized.

Oh, and it gets better.

You don't know Europe.
You don't need that market.

You're all about the US, right?

I'm not interested in the US.
I wouldn't get any of that.

However, any money you make
outside of the US market,

meaning Europe, Asia or Africa,

I want in, and in that case,
it'd be 70-30.

Seventy for me.

Seventy?

Well, with all due respect,
you're out of your mind.

I wouldn't give that to my dead father,

may he rest in peace.

Seventy my ass!

Oh, come on! You're leaving?

I just brought the tequila.

I'd like to stay, but Teresa keeps
saying things to make me leave.

Well, Teresa can drive
a hard bargain, but here.

Let me pour you some tequila.

Nazario, come back.

I drive a hard bargain, but I'm fair. Sit.

Please just hear me out.

You drank the whole thing.

Listen.

This passionate love

Is completely exhilarated

For going back

I'm on my way to madness

And even if everything tortures me

I know how to love

We parted some time ago

But my moment to lose has come

To lose

You were very right

I listen to my heart

And I'm dying to go back

And going back...

Excuse me. I need to take a call.

Where can I go?

Come with me.

To your arms once more

Yeah!

Thank you.

You can do whatever you want
in private here.

Thanks. You're very nice.

- Please excuse me.
- Sure.

What is it, Epifanio?

Hey, how'd the girl get away again?

What?

What are you talking about?

Teresa's kid. She got away again.

A nine-year-old can't escape an island.

What's up, Lupo? Did you find the girl?

I've looked for her everywhere,
and nothing.

She was upset about the encounter
with Epifanio.

I think she's hiding.

Know what I think?

I think she's hiding somewhere.
She loves playing games.

She used to play with Morgana. Hey, kid!

We know you're here.

You'll get hungry eventually,
and we won't give you anything.

I don't think she's playing.

Let's check the island.

Different ways.

You go that way, I'll go this way,

and we'll meet on the other side.

Sounds good.

Hey, kid!

Lupo.

Listen to me. That kid already saw me.

She knows too much. She's dangerous.

Look, I don't give a rat's ass
about anything else.

I just don't want the kid to talk.

I talked to her mother, by the way.

She wants another video,
and she didn't ask kindly.

She's just as rude as her kid.

Hey... where are you?

I can barely hear you over the ruckus.

I'm with some friends from college.

You know gringos love mariachis.

Epifanio, don't worry about it.

Like I said, a nine-year-old can't escape
from an island.

I'll handle it.

I'll tell Lupo to tighten the leash.

Hey, by the way,
I already proposed to your sister.

With the ring and everything.

I did it in front of your father.

He almost had a heart attack.

But just you wait till I'm president.

He'll come crawling to Los Pinos

begging me to sign off
on his state's budget.

Alex... are you... Alex!

You're not even listening to me, are you?

I'm hanging up.

See you tomorrow at the office.

See you tomorrow.

Everything okay? Is there a problem?

Everything's fine. Nothing to worry about.

Okay.

This was your room.

Yes.

I don't know why my mom insists
on keeping it like this.

Sometimes we'll come in here to talk.

How'd you explain all these posters of men

in your room, on the wall, on the ceiling?

I wanted to be a singer... a swimmer,

- I wanted to be everything.
- That's smart.

This is a gem.

You liked Manu?

Babe, who doesn't?

- I don't.
- You don't?

- No, too snobby.
- Who do you like?

- He always seemed like a snob.
- Really?

- Yeah, I liked...
- Who?

I don't know... VM.

I liked Giuseppe or...

- Who else?
- You.

Really? A lot?

- A lot.
- Or just a bit?

- A lot.
- Or nothing?

A lot.

WASHINGTON D.C., USA

ON THE NEXT EPISODE...

Sixty-forty, sixty for me.

All right.

Starting tonight, we're partners.

I've got needs, too,
but mine are monetary.

You're the only one who can help me.
