La Reina del Sur (2011–2019): Season 2, Episode 34 - Somos socios - full transcript

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

ON THE PREVIOUS EPISODE...

Yes, hello?

It's Teresa Mendoza, ma'am.

What do you want now?

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

and unfortunately for them, they found me.

The same will happen to anyone

who comes looking for me in Mexico.

- I like you.
- Really? A lot?

- A lot.
- A little?



- A lot.
- Not at all?

A lot.

We can't be seen together.

You're going to see your daughter's video
whenever the fuck I feel like it. Got it?

I'm not here to talk about that.

- No?
- No. I'm leaving.

Yeah, go. Go fuck yourself!

You know, Lupo, I think she's hiding
around here somewhere.

She loves playing games.
She played with Morgana.

No, no, I'm sorry!

We know you're here, kid!

I don't think she's playing.

Let's check the island.

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



What were you and that bastard
Epifanio Vargas talking about?

From the second he saw me,
he started attacking me, Zurdo.

- I heard everything you told him.
- What will I do?

With all the power presidents have,

I'll never be able to come back.

That's why I came to see you, to give you
answers about our future together.

Sofía!

Sofía.

- Sofía.
- Lupo.

I knew you'd come save me.

Don't ever do anything
like this again, young lady.

I thought I'd lost you forever.

Lupo...

do you love me?

I love you so much.

I love you like the father I never had,

like the father
my mother took away from me.

You're the best thing
that's ever happened to me.

I love you like I would my own daughter.

THE QUEEN OF THE SOUTH

Sixty-forty. I get sixty.

Nazario, I'd take it...

but Russia is also on the line.

He's tough.

I don't think Teresa
will be able to sway him.

Here's what we can do...

You still have much to learn.

Let me finish, listen.

Wait. Tessa will turn everything
on its head.

Look,

my goal is to keep
Epifanio from getting anywhere,

for you to bring him down.

For that to happen,
you need a ton of money, don't you?

And that's why I suggest we go 50-50.

I'm giving you Europe and Russia.

In fact, I'll throw in Morocco
just because

and so you can have full control
of the hashish market.

How about it?

I don't know.

I mean, half...

I don't know.

Fine, but you're on the hook
for any seizures in every market.

All right, then. Fine. You got it.

That's what we'll do.
As of tonight, we're partners.

What'd I tell you?

I'll stop by the ranch tomorrow
so you can show me how everything works.

- Sound good?
- Wait, wait.

You've been out of the business
for a long time.

What if you're a bit rusty?

Go back to doing business
in Europe when things cool off

and I'll give you your 50%. How about it?

I won't take any money till you know
how I run my operation.

In exchange, we leave for Europe tomorrow.

You'll be blown away.

In fact, you'll want to pay me more.

I'd like to see that.

In the meantime, let's toast.

Cheers!

What are we celebrating, man?

We just partnered up,
and we're going to be shitting money.

Epifanio won't get anywhere.

He won't even make it
to mayor of anything.

I haven't heard this much
good news at once in a while.

Let's order another bottle.
Do you sell aguardiente here?

Of course. And if we don't, we'll find it.

Rocio, Paloma is looking for you.

Okay. See you in a bit.

Hey, hey. Where's my kiss?

This motherfucker already...

This man...

- I'll be right back.
- You're leaving, too?

I need to use the restroom.
Would you like to join me there, partner?

Sure.

Make yourself at home.

Spill, man.

What's got you grinning from ear to ear?

Well, I'm really happy,

but it's not just because
of my partnership with Teresa.

You won't believe what just happened.

What happened? Tell me.

Epifanio showed up at the hotel
where Teresa's staying.

Teresa told him off. I heard it myself.
This isn't second-hand gossip.

- No way.
- Yeah.

We have to toast to her, then.

Did you hear everything?

Every word.

You reminded me of the old days.

Zurdo's tough.

I think he could become a headache.

If you're soft, you're screwed.

I have to prove to him
that I trust him with actions, not words.

How?

You heard it, didn't you, Ray?

He wants me back in the business,

so that's what I'll do.
I won't sell, though. I'm not interested.

I'll have to get everything ready
for the shipments.

The more authentic it looks,
the easier it'll be to earn his trust.

We have to reach out
to all of our contacts in Europe.

Everyone who is available.

Zurdo will see how we work,
how we run things...

He'll fall in love!

Even more so?

You know what I mean.
He's going to go crazy.

He'll fall head over heels when he sees
the magnitude of our operation.

Once there, he'll tell me
everything I need.

The routes, drop-off locations,
distributors,

he'll even give me his fucking passwords.

Once we have that...

we'll dismantle the cartel,

and I'll be able to get my daughter back.

An avalanche is coming his way, isn't it?

I just hope that avalanche
doesn't drag us all under.

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

Kid!

I'll show you.

Because of you
I couldn't bag the Spaniard.

Where are you?

Kid!

I'm going to stick you
in a cage when I find you!

Fuck it, she's not here.

There's nothing, Lupillo.

There's no trace of her.

If Sofía's still on the island,

she must've been swallowed whole.

She probably swam that way.

She doesn't have the stamina
to reach the other side.

Then maybe she built a raft.
She's very crafty.

I think something happened to her.

She could be in danger.

Why don't we pick this up
tomorrow morning?

Maybe we'll find her in daylight.

You're right.

I know of a way we can locate
her faster once the sun rises.

- You're so cute.
- Oh, stop it.

Stop being so chicken
and stick your feet in the water.

- But it must be freezing.
- So what?

If you get cold, I'll warm you up.

- All right.
- Yeah?

Let's see how well you do.

Okay.

It's very cold.

Yeah, but we can keep
each other warm, can't we?

Yeah.

What is it? What happened?

Something brushed up against my feet.

Wow!

- Let's keep the party going.
- Party? There's something inside.

- Let me see.
- Look.

Should we open it?

You think?

Nah, there's none left.

What's with you?

I want some.

Hey.

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO

As of today, the future presidential
couple is our new publicity stunt.

That's great. I like it.

Alejandrito, maybe
I don't say it often enough,

but you honestly saved my life.

- No.
- And if you didn't,

you're responsible for this new life.

You don't have to thank me.

What do you mean?

If it weren't for you,
I'd be in prison or dead.

I still remember when they said...

"Mr. Epifanio, someone's here to see you.

Some guy called Alejandro Alcalá."

I didn't know who you were.

You looked like some big-shot in a suit.

- And you didn't want to see me.
- Nope.

You looked like a public defender.

And when I heard you were
Antonio Alcalá's son,

I thought I was being set up.
Know what changed my mind?

You brought your sister to the interview.

Cheers, bro.

No one has ever treated me like you have.

When I saw footage of you being taken
to prison on every channel,

I knew the sitting president and the DEA
had teamed up to destroy you.

Hold on.

We've known each other for six years.

Don't give me that shit.

Why not tell the truth?

No one does all the shit you had to do

to get me out of prison just because.

Be honest with me.
We're practically family.

This is my way of getting revenge.

I grew up surrounded by politicians.

Politicians who complain and take bribes.

After I came back from the US,
everyone called me the Dauphin,

the successor, but I didn't want
to be linked to that mess.

During a party convention,

I told everyone I didn't believe in them.

They vehemently swore
to destroy my career before it started.

I obviously
wasn't going to let that happen.

That's what motivated me
to find someone different,

someone who didn't need to steal
but could help the people.

That's why I turned to you, Epifanio.

You are my revenge.

We're very busy.
The elections are coming up.

I don't mean to bother you,

but I figured you might
have something for me to do.

- You want to work?
- Right on.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- You serious?
- Yup!

Well, there's plenty to do around here.

- Let's talk to HR.
- Cool.

Hey, how are you?

Once we find her, we have to tie her
to the foot of the bed.

We have to find her first.

Lupo!

Lupo, I'm down here!

Lupo!

Steer it towards the water
to see if she drowned.

Lupo... I'm very cold.

I'm going to die.

Hello?

- We need to talk.
- What about?

I have to tell you something,
but it has to be in person.

I think you're exaggerating
because you want to work with me.

Am I right?

I just got to Culiacán,

and Ray filled me in.

Don't reprimand him,
because he's my godson

and he's not allowed
to keep secrets from me.

Fucking Ray!

What do you want?

I can't say over the phone
because it could be bugged.

I don't trust anything or anyone.

All right, let's meet.

Name the place and I'll be there.

Meet me at the house I shared with Güero.

Why the fuck are you living there?

It was a gift. I'll fill you in later.

I'll be there in 15.

Okay.

Hello.

Write your name, last name
and second last name, current address...

Are you listening?

- Yup!
- Pay attention, cuz!

City, email, ID number, the works.

Once you're done...

Look who's over there!

It's your boss and the president.

- Hey!
- Mr. President!

- Congratulations on your engagement, sir.
- Thanks, son.

When are you getting married?

Can't wait to see me take the plunge?

No, sir.

Mr. President!

That's what I like to hear.

Nice to meet you. I'm Edgar.
I'm here to serve you and my country.

- Good.
- Sir, it's great to see you.

This is my cousin Edgar.

He's a bit effusive,
and he hopes to work here.

I like people who want
to help their country.

Right on.

What's the matter with you?
Why are you acting so chummy?

- Aren't you two close?
- But...

It was okay yesterday at the party.

- Hey!
- He even brought a mariachi band.

Our personal lives and work are two
separate things. Wouldn't you agree?

Yeah, sure.

Fill out the forms.

Renata, what are you doing? Drop it.

There's something inside it, Mom.

All the more reason. Drop it. Gross.

No!

Throw it back, Renata!

- Happy?
- Yes, I'm happy.

How about there?

No, there's nothing.

Why don't we check
on that side of the island?

I don't think we've checked
that area well.

- Send it that way.
- Yes, yes.

"Help. I've been kidnapped.
Please help me.

Call my grandmother Cayetana.

Her number is

+345 450189.

My name is Sofía Aljarafe."

Renata, your mother is calling you.

Yes, yes. Right away.

I just spotted something.

That shadow is strange.

It's Sofía!

Is she dead?

I don't know. She's not moving.

- How are you, sweetie? Are you hungry?
- No.

Okay.

Mom...

what would happen if someone
were kidnapped and they asked me for help?

Stop coming up with kidnapping stories.

Nothing will happen to you.
You have bodyguards.

Sofía.

I'm talking about a friend, okay?

What if she were kidnapped

and she sent me a message asking me
to let her family know?

I should tell them, right?

Yes, honey.
We should help those who are in danger.

Sofía.

Sofía!

Lupo.

I'm here.

I searched for you all night.

I walked the island several times.

I'm sorry.
I didn't see the hole and fell inside it.

I'm here.

I'm here.

- My arm hurts.
- Don't worry. Keep calm.

Let's go back home

and I'll tend to your arm.

Stop thinking about that.

Why don't you take a dip
while I call your dad?

The water is very cold.

Then have some cookies
while I finish up here.

Okay.

Is she alive, man?

I need two pieces of wood
roughly the size of her arm.

Why don't we call a doctor?

Lupo, we should have
a professional look at her.

Do what I asked. Quickly.

I'll break a chair, then.

You have no idea what happened.
It was really intense to watch it live.

They shot the Pernases down
as if it were nothing,

as if it were a common occurrence.

They're savages.

You can't mess with people like them.

And to think they visited Grandmother.
She was doing business with criminals.

What are you talking about?

You're dating the Colombian narco.

You were all smiles when
he stopped by El Submarino.

He's handsome, though.

Yes, he's handsome,
he's also a drug trafficker

and he's old enough to be our father.

But he isn't.

Rocio.

You're falling for him.

What are you talking about?
Are you stupid or something?

No, I just find him funny.

He's crazy.

Yesterday he took me
to some second-rate theme park

and we walked into a haunted house

that's supposed to be scary
and we were there... and...

And you kissed.

How'd you know?

The dumb look on your face told me so.

Look, I like him and I've kissed him...

but that's all that's going to happen.

You don't have to be a nag.

Rocio, these people are drug traffickers.

This isn't one of your vampire stories
in which they swear eternal love.

These people are very dangerous.
This is real life, you know?

In one day they experience
what most people experience in a lifetime.

Thank you. See you around.

You wouldn't believe how many times

I visited Güero here
and you were none the wiser.

Fucking Güero, huh?

Who knows what else I still don't know?

It's his fault I'm still on the run.

Let's enter the house you know so well

so you can tell me
everything I need to know.

Okay.

I sent Jonathan the address.

He'll be here soon.

It must be very important

if everyone in the DEA
is coming to see me.

The house looks exactly the same.

It's as if time hasn't passed.

I think the beers...

and the tequila are the same.

This house is just missing Güero.

To Güero.

To Güero.

Oh, damn!

What's the secret
you had to tell me in person?

Well, I've been working,
looking into things,

and tying up loose ends here and there...

Did you hear about the priest
who was murdered in Mexico City?

What priest?
I've been so focused on my daughter

that I have no idea
what's been going on in Mexico.

What happened?

The priest was connected
to Epifanio Vargas

and I know who killed him.

That same person is also coming for you.

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO

What's up, sir?

Hi, Edgar. What are you doing here?
Where's Danilo?

He's working upstairs.

Send my regards
to your family and step aside.

I need to get to a meeting.

I have needs too...

but my needs are monetary.

I can't help you with that.

I, on the other hand,
think you're the only one who can.

Well?

How much are you going to pay

so no one finds out
about your weird tastes?

Where'd you get that picture?

I...

accidentally caught
you two making out last night

at Aunt Celina's party.

I always wondered about my cousin.

I've known he was into guys
since he was a kid, but you, sir...

I still don't understand what you want.

Sir, I don't judge,

and you can do with your ass
whatever you want,

but you made this too easy for me.

I thought about posting it on Facebook
'cause it'd get lots of likes,

but then I remembered
politicians like pretending

to be what they're not.

Does Danilo know about this?

No, of course not.
This is between you and me.

No one else.

But if you stiff me,
then everyone will know.

Even your boss,
the presidential candidate.

Does he know...

you're a pillow-biter?

Are you interested in buying the picture?

Throw in the phone,
and I'll give you 50,000 pesos.

No fucking way, man!

That's what I call a deal!

Consider it done, then.

Give me the phone,
and I'll give you 50,000.

You'll get the phone
after you give me the money.

Don't be stupid.
I don't have that much on me.

I'll stop by the bank.

I don't want anyone to know
about that picture.

You think I'm stupid, brother?

I'm not your brother.

Of course you're not! I forgot!

You're family, though!

Are we going to the bank or not, pansy?

Here's what we'll do.

Meet me at 9:00 p.m. at Circuito Gandito.

Bring the cell phone,
and I'll bring the money.

If the picture is leaked...

Hey, are you threatening me, princess?

No. I just don't want you to miss out
on the best deal of your life.

See you at 9:00, then.

On the dot.

What's going on? Where were you?

Cuz, I won't be taking the job.

What do you mean? How come?

Politics bore me.

I submitted your paperwork.
It was hard to get them to hire you.

See you, Danilo.

Send your boss my regards
and invite him over.

My birthday's next month.

See you.

Hope you guys win.

Hey. I'm glad you called.
I'll keep you company in traffic.

You said you wanted Edgar
to work with us, didn't you?

Yeah, but he just came up to say
he wasn't interested and took off.

I don't want any of your relatives
working with us. Is that clear?

Why are you talking to me like that?

Because you'll be distracted
if one of your relatives is there,

rumors of nepotism will spread,
the list goes on.

Alejandro, I know that.
You don't have to tell me that.

Plus, he just said he doesn't
want to work here.

Enough. So tell me,

your place or mine tonight?

No, we can't meet tonight.

Why not? You said we would.

We'll talk later.
I'm getting another call. Bye.

Sorry.

Get out of my way!

ON THE NEXT EPISODE...

Kira.

My mom lied to me.

My last name isn't Dantés.

You're going to pay for Willy's death.

You have no idea
how much I wanted to hold you.

Yes.

Is your granddaughter
named Sofía Aljarafe?

Yes. Who are you?

Do you know my granddaughter?
Are you her friend?

She asked me to call you
and tell you she's been kidnapped.

We have to help her.
