La Reina del Sur (2011–2019): Season 2, Episode 54 - La puñalada por la espalda - full transcript

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

IN THE PREVIOUS EPISODE...

No!

What are you
going to do to him?

What do you think, Kira?

Tell me.
Where the fuck is Lupo?

The DEA is taking him
to a secret location to interrogate him.

It's on State Road 520.

We have to prove he was your ally
so we can press charges.

You're lying.

There's only one training camp
around there.



I gave you one last chance
and you fucked it up.

I said no!

No!

Kira!

Talk!
You might still make it.

Do something good for once.
Talk.

There's no point.

Even if I told you,
you won't find him.

He's tougher than all of you.

You won't make it out alive.

They're going to...

You won, Teresa,
but guess what?

You're reuniting me
with my family.

Let's go, let's go.



Lupo?

When did you get here?

Aren't you happy to see me?

Of course I am.

I was so scared
I'd never see you again.

I thought you had
forgotten about me.

How can you say that?

You're the father I never had.

He's your father.

Teo Aljarafe.

No.

You're my dad.

Teo is dead.

I'm dead too.

Teresa just killed me.

What happened, sweetheart?
What's wrong?

Calm down.

There, there.

What happened?

She had a nightmare.

Bring her water.

There, there, sweetie.
It's over.

Relax.

You're with Yaya now.

Nothing bad will happen to you
because you're with me.

Go to sleep.

My little girl goes to sleep

Yes, yes, yes

Her grandma sings to her

Yes, yes, yes

Flowers sing to her

So do the mockingbirds

The moon sings to her

And so does the sun

My little girl is asleep

Yes, she is

My little girl goes to sleep

Yes, she does

Sweet dreams, darling.

Yaya, what's wrong?

Nothing, sweetie.

I dropped the frame
and the glass broke.

Shh...

Go to sleep, sweetie.

Ma'am, here's the water.

I added some valerian drops
to help her calm down.

Give it to me.

Thank you, Charo.

What's wrong, ma'am?

Death is near.

Selfish death
that doesn't want me to enjoy

my granddaughter Sofia.

Don't say that.

Did you take
your medication after dinner?

How ironic.

In the end, the Mexican will be the one
who wins this war.

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

MEXICO CITY

Reliable sources close
to the federal authorities

affirm that Nazario Villa...

Rumors about the infamous
drug trafficker's confession

say there was
a sentence reduction.

...the next Mexican
presidential elections.

Mariano Bravo, a candidate
for the presidency, will be...

That's it. Hell yeah!

Damn.

What's this?

Fuck off.
It's poop!

You'll see, motherfucker!

I'm going to make soup
out of you when I catch you!

Thank you.

- Epi.
- What happened? Don't run!

You're going to fall.

You'll make a milkshake
out of my son.

I just got a call

from one of Marietta Lancaster's
direct sources.

So?

Zurdo Villa just confessed
that he financed

Mariano Bravo's campaign.

Do you know what that means?

You tell me.

That you don't have
any competition

in the presidential race.

Hell yeah!

- Damn.
- What's wrong?

- Huh?
- Why are you looking at me like that?

I forgot how pretty you look
when you give me good news.

Did you ever doubt
you'd become first lady?

No, never.

I'm going to buy you
your own White House.

WASHINGTON DC, USA

Something bad
is happening, isn't it?

You don't fool me.

Let's not have the same discussion
as always.

It's my problems in Mexico.

The campaign, Epifanio...

Why don't you relax a little?

We're all alone together,
after all.

I can order
something delicious,

some room service.

Would you like that?

Yes, I would.

This restaurant belongs
to a friend of mine from college.

He still owes me a lot of favors.

Come in.

This guy said
that as long as we're here,

no one can come in.

We can relax.

This is the only key.

I did everything
you asked, Teresa.

Good.

Help me take a look at this.
It hurts.

Thank you, Jonathan.

You got it.

You risked your life
to help me.

Now we're even.

Teresa...

I learned something
very important

while I was detained.

They're planning something big.

Manuela said the same thing
right before she died.

Something big that's related
to Epifanio Vargas.

I don't understand.

I heard the head of the DEA
tell Alejandro Alcala

that Epifanio Vargas
was disposable.

They're going to take him
out of the race.

What? How?

The order is to eliminate
Epifanio Vargas.

Are you telling me
that the United States

is going to choose who the next
president of Mexico will be?

Exactly.

I promise I didn't know anything
when the mission first started.

Teresa, the girl I'm dating
is Epifanio's granddaughter.

I just found out.

I almost busted that asshole's face.

You met him?

Yes, I hadn't told you,

but I told him everything
I wanted to say

without him finding out
I was Güero's nephew.

We can use her
to get close to him.

Good job.

But if they kill Epifanio,

everything they've planned
so far will have been in vain.

It makes no sense.

Not everything.

The President of the United States

is behind all this.

They already have their successor.

Who is it?

Alejandro Alcala.

What?

Alejandro Alcala
couldn't have agreed to kill

his own brother-in-law.

Is he really going
to betray him so easily?

We have to celebrate, honey.

Let's toast.

I don't think
it's good for the baby.

Of course it is.

He's got a tough liver,
just like his dad.

Cheers.

- Alejandro is never here, is he?
- No.

He's never around
when there's good news.

He's going to shit himself
when he finds out

- everything worked for us.
- The news.

In the alleged confession
by drug trafficker Zurdo Villa,

who was captured
by the authorities in the last week,

sources confirm that Villa financed

Mariano Bravo's presidential campaign.

If this information is confirmed,

it'll become the biggest scandal
in our history.

Boom!
Boom, baby!

That puts me ahead
of Bravo in the polls, baby.

They're going to call me
Vargas the Rocket!

Answer.

Hold on.
Who is it now?

Speaking of the devil.

It's the holder
of the keys to Los Pinos.

Answer.

Hello?

Mr. President, how are you?

I really don't know who will make
a worse president. Poor Mexico.

Look, your plan seems perfect,

but we have to leave Mexico
as soon as possible.

Wait.

I need to talk to you.

Look, you're always going to be
my daughter's kidnapper to me.

I'll never get over that.

So stop asking me.

Don't push things.

The fact that I didn't put
a bullet in your head

is already a big step.

OK?

Come on.

Come with me, Lupo.

Are we friends with the military now?

They even called me Mr. Lencho.

I made an arrangement
with a guy who wants to be

the next administration's
Secretary of Defense.

I'm going to escape.

Do you trust these guys?
They're slippery.

We've got no choice.

This is how it's going down.

It'll be during
the transfer to prison,

so it's more believable.

The military would rather look like idiots
than accomplices.

How's it going down?

I'll tell you.

What about Teresa?
What happened last night?

We followed her,
but she was with her guards.

We got close, but just as
we were about to nab her,

she got away.

Why didn't you follow her?

She's not in Mexico anymore. Look.

She's in the States.

I don't have a visa.

What is she doing in the US?

Hey.

You like being in slumberland
a little too much, don't you?

Damn Russian.

Hey!

Hey!

When you wake up,

we have to talk
about your triumphant return.

See you tomorrow, Sleeping Beauty.

You know I don't like to drink.

At least something
about your life is true.

It's also true that I'm an orphan

and that I grew up
in an orphanage.

I'd rather not recall that, though.

I agree.

Plus, we have things to do.

It's nighttime and we have
to get back to Mexico.

Someone will be waiting
for us at the border

to cross us over.

All set.

How's Sofia?

She's great.

That's all I'll tell you
about my daughter.

I still don't trust you.

Sorry to be so blunt,

but it's stronger than me.

What matters is that she's OK.

After what you did, I owe you.

I'll do whatever it takes
to get the DEA off your trail.

Let's go to Mexico.

All set.

Everything's ready, sir.

You're leaving today. Come on.

Hold on, hold on.

Let's go.

Hang on.

I've got you.

Careful with your leg.

Don't make noise.

There we go.

Be quiet.

Good night, guys!

All right, hurry up.

On three.

Shit.

Are you OK, boss?

No, you idiot.

Sorry for the bumpy ride.

You want a selfie, asshole?
Let's go!

Hurry up, man.

Look, Sofia.

All these fields were planted
over 400 years ago

by the great grandparents
of my great grandparents.

Wow, Yaya.

- That's a lot of years.
- Yes.

The Aljarafes have been here
since the beginning of time.

Sometimes when I'm sad,
I hug a tree tightly,

and it makes me feel
like I'm receiving

all the Aljarafe energy
and strength.

All this is yours, Yaya?

And soon it'll be yours.

As far as the eye can see
and beyond,

will all be yours someday.

Because you, Sofia,
are my blood and my heir.

Mine alone?

Yes, yours alone.

What about my sisters?

They're also my father's daughters.

Yes, but Paloma and Rocio
stopped being Aljarafes.

And it's not because I said so.

They chose your mother's side,

despite your mother being the one
who orphaned them.

- Do you believe in God, Yaya?
- Of course.

The Aljarafes have always
been devout Catholics.

In fact, my grandfather
donated the money

to build the town church.

Then you have to forgive those
who have hurt you.

I don't know how. I can't.

Yaya, God says we must forgive
your trespassers.

You're a strong, generous woman.

Hate only takes away
from your Aljarafe charm.

Come, let's go.

Let's do something.

Let's find a fruit
you haven't seen before

so you can make a jam
and surprise Charo.

- Sound good?
- Yes.

Can we make it together?
Will you teach me?

I'm so glad you stayed, honey.

It's been so long
since we had sex like that.

Yummy.

But now I really have to go.

Why don't you take me with you?

No, I'll be back in two days.

Why are you so secretive?

Do you trust me or not?

Of course I do,

but what am I supposed
to do here alone?

I don't know. Go out.
Go see the city.

What about the campaign?

Forget the campaign.

You're not going back
to Mexico until I tell you.

This conversation is over.

I'm going to shower.

I'm going to get coffee.
Want anything?

Yeah, bring me one.

Wait.

There they are.

Thank you for the beautiful dresses
you bought me,

but we should go home now.

My mom doesn't like it when I...

Yes, I know.
It's OK, sweetie.

There's a beautiful store
a little further up

where I used to buy clothes
for Paloma and Rocio

when they were little.

We can take a look.

Maybe you'll see something you like.

Let's shop in here.

No, this store is for when you're older.

You're still a girl.
These are clothes for ladies.

It's not for me.

It's time for us to redo your wardrobe.

Let's get rid of everything black
and add color to your life! Come on.

Pepe, this girl is
driving me crazy, I swear.

We'll buy lots of flowers, high heels.

- You're crazy.
- No, I'm not.

Epifanio, Epifanio!

Ladies and gentlemen of Mexico,

no one can stop this machine
now thanks to you!

When Epifanio Vargas
becomes president,

corruption will end in this country!

Let's take action

on behalf of those 43 victims!

That's right, folks!

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you. Let everybody celebrate.

Epifanio, Epifanio!

Thank you, thank you!

Bravo, bravo!

What happened?

Fireworks.

Let's go.

They love me!

Listen to my people!

Bravo, guys! Great job!

That's it!

Congratulations to everyone!

Let's go, Alejandro.

Thank you, thank you!

I love you!

Long live Mexico!

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you.

Hey, man.

What happened?

Where's the car?

You asked me to get you
face time with the public

before the elections.

The truck is further up.

Yeah, but tell those idiots
to bring it around.

This is dangerous.

I have to answer this.

Take him to the truck now.

Epifanio, Epifanio!

How are you, folks?

Happy?
Thank you.

I told you
that if you didn't keep your word,

I'd make a huge fucking scene.

What are you doing here?
There are lots of people around.

I need to talk to you alone.

More importantly,
without your errand boy.

Move over.

You, come with us.

Hi.

- You speak Spanish?
- Yeah.

- Are you Mexican?
- From Sinaloa.

- Really?
- Really.

- May I?
- Please, sit.

Thanks.

What a coincidence.

I'm from Mexico City.

Nice.

Nice to meet you.

Andrew.

What's your name?

Danilo.

Nice to meet you.

Where's the candidate?

He left by himself.

What do you mean?
Where'd he go?

By himself, my ass. Idiots!

How the hell
could you just show up like this?

Can't you see
how many people are around?

Are you trying to cost me
the elections?

Imagine,
if we're photographed together.

We're in a bookstore.

Unfortunately,
no one reads anymore.

It's empty.

Fine, but what's up with you?

Where have you been?

I can never find you.

You love dramatic appearances,
don't you?

We have a lot to talk about.
It had to be done in person.

Well, what is it?

You're surrounded by wolves.

Of course, honey.

And I'm the biggest one.

Nope.

You're a little lamb
they're about to sacrifice

and you won't even know
where it's coming from.

What are you on about?

You're not going to be president.

There's a plan to replace you.

To replace me?

Epifanio?

What is it?

Are you packing?
Do you want to kill me?

If I wanted to kill you,
I would've done it a long time ago.

Lord knows I want to.

I'm not a murderer like you
and your henchman, though.

What henchman?

The motherfucker
they're making president

instead of you.

You said he walked in here.

He's not here.

Why don't you come here?

Looking for anything
in particular?

The president.

Miguel Angel Asturias.

At the end on the left.

Thank you.

Alejandro is going
to be the next candidate?

Are you thinking
like my enemies now?

Do you really think
I'm too old to be president?

I'm not pulling out of the race.
I'm rising like the tide.

Why are you making that face?

I know you can't stand
my brother-in-law,

but that's doesn't mean
you can turn me against him.

That only confirms
what I already knew.

You have no idea what's going on.

I was also shocked when I heard
and I'm not even in your shoes.

Where'd you hear that?

From the puppet master.

You and I are nothing but puppets.

- Puppets?
- Look,

if you want to believe me, great.
If not, that's fine too.

Or you can listen
to what I found out.

I didn't come down here
and risk my neck

to gossip with you.

- Don't give me any weird...
- Epifanio?

I just heard your voice. Open the door.

Did you find him?

- Get me the key to this door.
- Yes, sir.

Epifanio.

What's going on?

Can't I take a leak
in peace anymore?

That's not a bathroom.

What'll happen
when I'm president?

Won't I get a minute alone?

It's not a bathroom,
but I had to piss.

Why didn't you let
your guards follow you?

So they could
shake it off for me?

Let's just get out of here
before anyone notices.

You haven't been to the National Mall

- or the Washington Monument?
- No, I haven't.

I just got here yesterday.
I'm definitely going, though.

You bet.

I know Washington well.

If you have any questions,
just let me know.

Thank you.

By the way, I also know
of a few really fun gay clubs.

You're gay, right?

Thank you, thank you!

Thank you, thank you.

Now you have a meeting
with the representatives

from the local chamber of commerce,
and then with a local union leader.

Cancel all my meetings.

I want to rest.

I know when you're tired.

What's wrong?

Nothing. I just want to rest.

I want to be with Beba for a while.

I want to enjoy her pregnancy.

Spend time with my lady.

I mean, if I can't be with Bebita
and piss alone,

then what are my priorities?

Is there anything
I can do for you?

Yeah.

Drop me off at home.

I've got your number
and you've got mine,

so if you want
to go out tonight, call me.

Again, I'm here
for whatever you want.

Thank you.

Washington has something
special about it...

like magic.

Magic?

How about I call you
when I get to my hotel?

Sounds good.

Tonight is the best night
to go out, by the way.

I'll call you at 8:00. OK?

OK.

Mr. Alcala.

Do I know you?

We've been following you
since the meeting

with Mr. Vargas.

My name is Cristian Nuñez.

Yes, Sheldon told me about you.

The password.

MGRD1823.

I'm going to be
your next campaign manager.

We have a lot
to discuss, Candidate.

I like this one.

- Sweetie, that's too...
- Loud?

Yes, it's way too loud for me.

I'm in mourning.
I wear black.

Sofia.

Yaya, you're too old-fashioned.

You have to update your look.

Are you dead?

No.

Then we have to celebrate
that you're alive,

and I hope you'll live
for a very long time

because you're the only grandmother
I have.

- Oh, Sofia.
- Alright.

This one is pretty.

- It's your size.
- Too white.

- Thank you, miss.
- Have a nice day.

Let's go.

You're going to look gorgeous, babe.

Who taught you that?
Listen to her, Pepe.

We're also going to change
your nails.

No, I won't.

I've been wearing
this same color my whole life.

Something red. And lipstick.

- This is fine.
- No, I want red nails.

I have a question, dear.

Do you sell clothes
for little girls here?

I just saw a girl leave

and thought I'd surprise
my Jessi with a dress.

No, we only sell
ladies' clothes here.

The girl was
with her grandmother.

Oh, isn't that nice?

A grandmother shopping
with her granddaughter.

I'm leaving. Don't worry.

IN THE NEXT EPISODE...

The little girl has to pay
for the other granddaughter's crime!

It's only fair.

With your brother-in-law dead,

and your pregnant sister
pleading for justice,

you're going to be

the most-voted-for president
in this country's history.

Alejandro Alcala works for the DEA,
just like Lupo.

In fact, Alejandro
is my boss on this mission.

I swore to you
I'd bury Epifanio Vargas alive,

next to his son Ratas

and I'm going to keep my word.
