La Reina del Sur (2011–2019): Season 2, Episode 51 - El dolor de madre - full transcript

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

Who are you?

IN THE PREVIOUS EPISODE...

What do you want?

Hey, Lupo.

You should get some rest.

I'm going to help Kira.

There's no need.
I've received information.

The plane blew up as planned.
The girl is dead.

- Where's Teresa?
- For some reason

she wasn't on the plane.



Kira's after her, though.

When all of this is over,
you're to head to Washington

to fill out the intel reports.

What about Teresa?

When she saw the explosion,
she went crazy.

She became someone else.
I'd never seen anything like it.

That chick isn't just anyone.

There's a reason they call her
the Queen of the South.

It's me, Teresa.

Sheila mentioned you were shot
during an operation or something.

You'd better had nothing to do
with my daughter, you fucker.

You've seen my bad side,

but you haven't seen my worst side.

I'll be waiting your call.



Oh, Teresa!

If only you knew the surprise
I have in store for you.

All right, bro.

Three doses in the vein should be enough.

Wakey, wakey.

No.

No, no, sorry.

Now's not the time to cry.

Right now I need you to concentrate
and be ready for what's coming.

If that motherfucker Epifanio thinks
he killed me with this,

I'm going to show him how wrong he is.

There are less of us now.

We've lost Oleg, Jonathan,
and now my daughter.

How the fuck did this happen?

No regrets, Ray.

If you want to go, go now. It's OK.

I'll go to hell
and back with you if necessary.

Me too, especially
after what they did to Sofia.

Those sons of bitches!
She was just a girl!

We won't abandon you, Teresa.
She was our sister.

Count on us.

We have a group of men ready to attack.

It's your call, Teresa.
We'll do whatever it takes.

That son of a bitch Epifanio
has been dictating my destiny

ever since he brought down
the plane your uncle was in.

My life is a shitshow because of him.

And today, he took what I loved the most.

I'm leaving.

Where are you going?

I have to think.

I have to figure out
how I'm going to attack,

how I'm going to strike back.

Don't come looking for me.

You won't hear from me
until I know how I'll get my revenge.

It's me, Teresa.

Relax.

Relax!

It's just me.

It's OK.

It's fine.

Everything went exactly as planned.

I barely got away.

- A few seconds more, and I'd be dead.
- Don't even say it.

Thank God you're OK.

I ran into Manuela.

She almost killed me.
We shot at each other.

The important thing is that you got away.

That's the important thing?

Yeah.

I lost my daughter.

I lost... Fuck!

I lost the most important thing
in my life.

I lost...

my only reason to live.

I know.

It's OK, Teresa.

In Tuscany, Italy

Where Teresa is hiding

Her daughter was kidnapped

To make her come back

To her beloved Mexico

Watch out, I'm coming back

During that rescue

New things came to light

A full house

In Teresa's claws

She will rampage for revenge

The Queen of the South has come back

CULIACAN, MEXICO

Here's everything we need
to operate on him.

The surgery
will be pretty complicated.

I know, doctor.

Money is no object.

The important thing
is to keep him alive, understood?

I found out Zurdo
and Teresa were going to meet.

Hey, any news?

Do you feel all right, Batman?

Just imagine. How else can I feel?

He's gonna make it.

Barely, but yeah.

He's in good shape.

That's why he survived the gunshot.

Now we just need to wait
for him to recover.

You hear that, Russian?
You owe me your life.

I nearly didn't make it either.

Are you talking about your arm?

What was that about?

I made a rookie mistake.

Imagine that.

Epifanio Vargas' main gunman dead

because his own gun went off.

Why are you helping this guy?

Thanks to this guy,

I'll be able to cash in on
a debt I've had for many years.

Let's say that there's a woman
who'll help me get revenge

when she finds out this guy is alive.

Poor Teresa! This is horrible!

So horrible!

After everything she did
to get her daughter back.

Parents shouldn't have to bury their kids.
It's unnatural.

I'm not a mother,
but it must be a terrible pain.

She's so strong. My God!

She should be in bed crying

and yet, she's getting ready
to strike back.

Goddamn.
To think she was my sister.

Now I'll never get to hug her or meet her.

And Jonathan...

My God! Such a young man!

All those sacrifices, all those risks...

so many operations and sleepless night

for this shit to happen in the end.

We don't even deserve
the money Teresa gave us!

We couldn't even protect her
from those sons of bitches!

What are you saying?

We did what we could! Look at me!

We're dealing with very dangerous people.

Epifanio's a very powerful man
and he's not even president yet.

That's true.

Listen to me.

That man will get rid of anyone
who's in his way, no matter the cost.

That's what he did with my uncle.

That's why we're gonna get rid of him
before the election.

Understood?

Hello.

Is something wrong? Why the long faces?

Everything went wrong!

What?

Sofia's dead.

Goddamn it!

NOTHING HERE BUT SOFIA

How can you be such a motherfucker?

You manipulated a little girl
and played with her feelings!

You're a piece of shit!

This bullet is so you'll never hurt
another woman in your life.

If you're going to kill him,
you'll have to do it in front of me.

Come here.

You don't deserve to live.

You can't kill him!
You already killed Teo!

You can't kill my dad twice!

He's not your father!
He's your kidnapper, damn it!

We haven't seen each other in months.

A lot has happened.

He's looked after me like a daughter.

You won't make me an orphan again.

Of course.

You fooled me and I'm a grown woman.

How could a little girl
not fall for your act?

You've betrayed me in two ways.
This is unforgivable.

I won't talk to him
until I know how I'm going to make him pay

for what he did to me.

Step by step,
I'm going to pay him back in kind.

I'm so sick of everything.

Teresa, come on.

What you're feeling is normal.

Everything that happened
with your daughter

must've been very hard on you,

especially what happened
with that asshole Lupo.

Plus...

all of this has been hell for you.

You're a son of a bitch! You bastard.

It's OK. Calm down.

It's me.

It's me. It's OK.

You're OK.

WASHINGTON D.C. USA

YOUR AUNT ISN'T WHO YOU THINK SHE IS

They won't stop talking on TV

about the mess you made
at the police station.

Your face is all over the news

and you know what cops do
to cop killers, right?

It was just a setback, sir.
It won't happen again.

As soon as I get rid of Teresa
and her daughter,

I'll go back to the US.

It was just a setback, sir.
It won't happen again.

As soon as I get rid of Teresa
and her daughter,

I'll go back to the US.

To be honest,
I'm more thirsty than hungry.

I can imagine.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

First things first, Jonathan.

I think it's time.

Cayetana must be in Spain by now.

Look, not even the DEA can tap this phone.

Leave it. I'll answer it.

Aljarafe residence.

It's Teresa Mendoza.

Ma'am! You've got great timing.

We just arrived at the house.

I'll put on Mrs. Cayetana now.

Charo, I don't want to talk to her.

Of course, I understand.

Just a second.

Sweetie.

Thank you.

Everything went according to plan.

I'm with my grandmother.

You've no idea how happy I am to hear you.

More important than you being with her

is that you're alive.

We're apart again,
but at least you're alive.

Yes, I'm OK.

Jonathan followed the plan.

Are you OK?

Yes, I'm OK. I was just anxious.

I wanted to hear your voice.

I was afraid something
might happen to you.

How's Tozzi?

Tozzi's fine, sweetie.

We're both OK. We'll soon visit you.

Remember what you promised.

Talk to Lupo.
I know you're mad at him, but...

he saved our lives.

He saved us? Listen to me, Sofia.

We're in this mess because of him.

You just don't know him like I do.

- Lupo is...
- His name's not Lupo.

His name is Michele
and he's not the man you met.

Get it through your head, OK?

That man was paid to kidnap you.

Yes, but if it weren't for him,
we wouldn't be alive

and we wouldn't have survived that bomb.

There's only one way out.

Will you listen to me before you kill me?

All right. Go.

Our orders are clear.

We have to kill you and Sofia.

They don't want any witnesses
who could mess up the election.

OK. So?

Just say it.

They know there's a plane waiting for you.

They have a Plan B.

And what's Plan B?

There's a bomb on the plane.

What?

It'll be activated

as soon as Alejandro Alcala
gives the order.

Hold on a second.

First of all, the one giving the orders
is Epifanio, right?

I don't know that.

What I know is that they'll do it
when you board the plane.

Wait.

How will they know? They don't...

There are mics inside the plane.

Sons of bitches.

All right.

If that's true,
I'll have to change my plans.

There's a better option.

Do as I tell you and we'll fool them.

What are you thinking?

Both of you need to get on that plane.

What about the bomb?

They'll kill us, Lupo!

Sofia, wait.

I know what you're up to. Go.

You'll have two minutes
after the bomb is activated.

You can escape through the cargo door.

That way the DEA will think
you two are dead

and you can disappear forever.

No, wait.

I'm not going to put my daughter
at such risk.

And second of all, I'm not going anywhere
until I fix this mess.

If I go and leave Epifanio Vargas behind,

he'll find me again eventually.
I'm not going anywhere.

It's not just him.

It's the American government, the DEA.

They're after you and your daughter.

If you don't disappear today,
it'll be too late.

It's... hard for me to believe you.

Mom, I believe him.

Wait. I need to think about this.

There's no time, Teresa.

You need to choose now.

If you don't disappear,
you'll die.

Please.

Believe me.

I know you're mad at him
and you won't believe him,

but he really is in love with you.

Charo, bring me some coffee.

Mom, I'm not a girl anymore.

I know you're in love with Lupo.

I know you.

What are you talking about, Sofia?

I hate that man
more than anyone in the world.

He's not even worth talking about.

Let's change the subject.

Listen to me.

Just say yes or no.

Is Cayetana listening?

Yes.

OK.

Remember, the less she knows, the better.

Is she treating you well?

It's a little weird, but yes.

Don't forget what we talked about.

Reaching an agreement
with Cayetana wasn't easy. Understand?

I know. I won't forget.

Honey...

My heart sank.

I didn't know if you'd made it,

or if Jonathan had gotten you out
before the explosion.

I'm so happy to hear your voice.

Everything worked out perfectly.

- Tozzi.
- Huh?

What about Tozzi?

- Where is he?
- In the car. We can't leave him.

There's no way.

We'll call later to see
if someone can send him.

Please, Mom, don't do this to me.
Please go get him.

I can't leave Tozzi.

That's like if you left me.

I'll be right back.

I love you.

No, no, no.

Don't get off now, you fucking bitch!

We were in such a hurry
we forgot your cat.

Yeah, I named him Tozzi
after the cat I had in Italy.

You know what?

You'll have to pilot some other day.
You look tired.

I'll help you recline the seat.

- Yeah, I'm sleepy.
- That's right.

DANGER
DO NOT ENTER

It was true.

It's your granddaughter!

When the Mexican called me
and asked me to take the girl,

I thought she was lying.

Go ahead.

Go with your grandma.

Sofia.

My name is Cayetana Aljarafe
and I'm your grandmother.

I'm so happy you're OK
and that I'm finally meeting you.

We're going to Spain,

to my home.

Well, our home.

This is Charo.

She'll take good care of you.

Let's go. Get in.

- May I?
- Thank you.

Jonathan helped me to be brave.

I know.

Jonathan is a good man.

When are you coming to get me?

As soon as I sort out a few loose ends,
I swear I'll see you.

I understand.

Honey, don't forget
that you can't talk to anyone.

You can't tell anyone, not even Michele.

But he knows I'm not dead.

I know, honey, I know,

but if you call anyone,

the call could be traced
and then we're really fucked.

You get it?

So you can't call me,
Michele or anyone else

until I call you
and tell you it's safe, OK?

Hurry up. I want to see you.

And remember to bring Tozzi.

Yes, honey.

I'll be with you soon. I swear.

Take care of yourself.

I love you with all my heart.

I love you more.

Honey, let me talk to your grandmother.

OK.

Grandma, it's my mom.

Yes?

I'm hoping you can put yourself
in my place.

That would be difficult.

I know you think you beat me

and in the end you did,

because you have my daughter and I don't.

But you know what life
has taught me the hard way?

That sometimes you can win
even if you lose.

I'll only ask you not to poison
my daughter's mind.

I can't put myself in your place

because I'm neither
a murderer nor a fugitive.

And don't play
the selfless mother with me.

It's an act.

You know that after the trial,
the judge would've given me custody.

I'm doing this
for my granddaughter's well-being.

What the hell did you do
for them to want to kill you both?

Listen, ma'am.

I would've loved to explain
every single detail,

but I had to get my daughter out in time

to make it to your plane.

I didn't have time to explain anything.

I needed you to leave Mexico.

Well, don't worry.

Your daughter is safe now.
I'll protect her.

Just tell me what you want
and be done with this.

Stop. It's pointless.

Listen, ma'am.

You've been a puppet.

You didn't find me in Italy.

Of course I did.

Rocio and Paloma told me
about the kidnapper.

He's the detective I hired
to find you, Emilio.

No! You don't understand.

None of that is true.
You and I have been used.

We've been part of a plan.
You can't even imagine it.

What the hell are you talking about?

Stop being ridiculous.

The men who are after me
know how much I hate you.

That's why my daughter is safest with you.

Well, that is reciprocated.

And don't worry about Sofia.

Like I said, she's safe with me.

You've no idea how to protect her.

If you say anything,

my enemies will come for you.

They won't hurt my daughter.

They'll use her to negotiate with me.

Understand yet?

I'm starting to.

You always have a plan.

You've given me your daughter
as part of some strange strategy

and now I understand
how you manipulated my son.

That's not true, Grandma.

Think whatever the hell you want.

Right now, I need her to be
in the best place for her.

And the best place for her
is where no one will look for her.

I need them to think she's dead.

What kind of a mother would say that!

You have no idea

of the kind of monster I become
when people mess with my baby.

Now you understand
the way I feel about you

after you killed my son.

You know what?

I can help an ally to hide a body.

If you betray me...

be afraid,
because I'm the best at hiding bodies.

Understood?

Charo, take Sofia to her room
and show her around the house.

Come with me, honey.
You've got a beautiful room.

Grandma, why don't you come with us?

- Come on.
- OK.

All right.

I understand her... and her pain.

You did what you had to.

It's time for me to get even.

What are you thinking about?

I sent a recording to Manuela's nephew.

What recording?

One that lets him know
that his aunt is a hired assassin.

My idea is to put pressure
on her from every side.

Hold on. How old is the boy?

Seventeen.

I can find him if you want.

We need to be careful.

After her daughter's death,
she won't stop until she gets revenge.

I'm sure Lupo can help us find her.

He knows everything about her.

Well, where is he?
Why isn't he here?

There he is.

You're late.

I'm sorry.

I needed to recover.

No more excuses. Get to work.

We need to find Teresa.
Do you know where she lives?

No, she never let me take her home.

Lupo, you know her very well.

Where could she be?

No place she suspects I know.

I know you very well
and I know you know Teresa.

Give me something.

Anything.

A smell, a scent,
something that might give you an idea

of where she is.

She probably left Culiacan.

So she left Culiacan.

What road would she have taken?

What city did she go to? What state?

Think, Lupo. Think.

Go to Washington.

Get a new identity.

Get close to your buddies from the DEA.

Get all the intel you can from them

and find the boy.

Jonathan, they went after my daughter.

That means I can plant a bomb

on whoever gets in my way. Got it?

Yes.

ON THE NEXT EPISODE...

The government has lots of resources.

Sooner or later, they will find you.

Tomorrow we're going to look
for the target where we agreed.

Jimena, you hadn't mentioned
your grandfather...

was running for president.

We have orders to kill the messenger.

You couldn't fool the boss.

He knows you're working
with Teresa Mendoza.
