La Reina del Sur (2011–2019): Season 3, Episode 29 - Esconderse no es una opción - full transcript

PREVIOUSLY

The priority is not Teresa,
but the one she is with.

The informer, the Black Rider.

I mean, I never thought
I'd had a baby.

I haven't told him yet,

I don't even know
if I'm going to tell him.

Sheila...

Mom, we don't have
any more options.

He's going to come here
with the whole gang.

Enjoy your freedom.

As long as I live,
I'll remember your face, madam.



Look!

This key was given to me
by the DEA agent,

it is from the place
where all the evidence

you are looking for is.

-And where is that?
-One of the others must know.

What others?

The Red Rider and the Pale Rider.

Change of plans,
we go in for the kill.

I'll stop them!

He's right, we...

Come on, you bastards!

To be honest...

I have no idea about what we should do.

It hurts me too,
what happened with Jonathan,



but we have to move on.

We came here to get some evidence
and we're going to find it.

Yes!

But now we have to find two more people.

As far as I know,
the only option you and I had

was to find that evidence.

You and me
are going to make decisions together.

Alone!

Each one can make the decision
whether or not to take the risk and go on,

and I didn't come here to give up.

I don't want to sacrifice any more lives.

Many people have died because of me.

Who's next? Huh?

Who are we going
to be crying over tomorrow?

This doesn't make any sense.

No matter what plan we make,
they will always find us.

We can take one of them down,
and they're going to put in two more.

On the other hand, if... one of us...

They killed Rocio!

And Jonathan...

So they have to pay.

I didn't leave my child
for nothing.

We can't spend our whole lives hiding.

I'm with Faustino and Sofia.

Sorry, but this isn't about choosing
a side. There are no sides here.

You know that my situation
is not like anyone else's.

I thought you knew it by heart,
after all we went through!

Are we going to decide
the future of all of us

based on the relationship between you two?

-Whatever it is.
-What's with you guys?

I'm with Landero.
Sheila and I are going all the way.

Since when do you decide for me?

Sheila, you know
why I got myself into this

and I'm not getting out of here
until I get it.

And what if I tell you I'm pregnant?

Does it change anything?

Are you pregnant?

We're going to need you,
Jonathan.

What if we put it to a vote?

I'd rather you stay out of this.

Mateo has taken a big fucking gamble
with all of us,

he has every right to voice his opinion.

I agree with that,
about Mateo and about voting.

No, it's better not to vote.

The only one who had to decide
has already done it.

I didn't decide anything!

The good thing is we didn't even
have to discuss who's in charge here.

Hey! Sofia, come here!

Hey... Everybody! If you are going
to leave me talking to myself,

I'd better not come. I better leave.

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO

What?

What do you mean, two more Riders?
Oh, fucking hell.

No, it can't be, that person lied to you.
That woman.

I don't think so, sir.

Karen had nothing to gain by lying to us.

Uh-huh... And how hard is it to find
those two that are missing?

Well, we have some clues.

I mean, I asked you if it's hard,
not if you have any clues, asshole!

-It's not going to be easy.
-You know what?

This is too big for you and Teresa.

Well, we're doing what we can, sir.

Well, you can tell that to your old man
because at that pace

what you're about to see
is his corpse, huh?

Do you know whose fault it is, sir?
It's yours.

Fuck... That's all I needed.

It was you who passed the information

about this Rider, not us.

That's what the informant told me.

Then find him and ask him
for the information we need.

And let me tell you
that we will need more money.

Much more!

Listen, take it down a notch,
you don't give me orders, asshole.

Son of a bitch!

Moron.

WASHINGTON D.C., U.S.A.

Hello?

We have a problem.

I can't talk now.

I don't care,
I need to talk to you right now.

What's going on?

Look...

The picture you gave me
and the Rider thing

turned out to be much more complicated
than we thought.

Why?

They multiplied,
the fucking Riders.

-I'll need...
-I really can't talk right now.

Don't you dare hang up on me,
because today I'm...

I promise to call you later.
Not now.

Please, don't push me,
Batman, I need to think.

But what is there
to think about, Sheila?

Well, we should talk about it, right?
I have the right too.

Right to what? To decide for me?

No, no, but...

But it is also my baby.
I... I do want to have it.

Look, it's my body,
and I'm in charge of my body.

And I'll decide whether or not
I continue the pregnancy. You hear me?

Listen, Sheila... Why?

Why won't you go through with it?

You don't love me anymore?

You don't want to be with me or what?

It is not that, dammit!

What is it, then? Talk to me.
Where are you going?

Because I'm afraid!

A pregnancy, at my age?

It is a question of risk,

and not only for me but also for the baby.

I'm not sure if it's worth a try.

I've always wanted to be your wife, César.

Your wife, yes. But a mother?

A mother? No.

But, Sheila, being a mother
is the most wonderful thing in the world.

I've already lost two children,
I don't want to lose this one.

See how you're only thinking
about yourself?

Is that what you want for our son?

It is not yet born but it's already
condemned to run away all its life.

-But we're not going to run away!
-Oh!

We'll just finish the mission
and then we'll get out of this.

This is a sign!
A sign to change our lives, Sheila!

Sheila, please! I'm begging you!

I beg you, down on my knees.

-No, don't...
-Please...

-Give our baby a chance, come on.
-César...

I don't know.

-Sheila...
-I just don't know.

-I don't know.
-Sheila...

I just don't know!

I don't know!

I didn't mean to be rude to Mateo.

But you were.

Did it bother you that he came with me?

Well, no...

Actually, I don't have anything
against him.

So?

That boy left everything
just to be with you.

That's a big responsibility for you.

But not only that...

His life is in danger.

That's why I think you rushed it.

Me?

Am I the one who rushes into things?

How long have you known your boyfriend,
this Landero guy?

-How long have you been together?
-Don't question me, Sofia.

-I'm your mom.
-Why? Because it doesn't suit you?

No, it's because Landero and I are adults.

Are you sure?

It is always the same, Mom.

-The story of Lupo.
-No, no, no, no.

Leave Lupo out of this.
Lupo kidnapped you...

Don't forget it.

And I, being stupid,
fell in love with him.

And even if it broke my heart,
I told him to fuck off. Why?

Because it was the right thing to do,
I had to do it.

Mom, he regretted everything he did.

If you had let him join us
in our trip to Australia,

-maybe they wouldn't have caught you.
-Sweetie...

you have no idea what you're saying.

He wouldn't have made it
against all those bastards.

And, what's more, even if I he would,

I don't trust him.

Why is it so hard to understand?

Well...

And Landero?

Do you know him well?

No.

And I would probably be wrong again.

But I insist, I'm an adult.

Let's make a deal.

I stay out of your life,
and you stay out of mine.

That's not going to happen, Sofia.

Because I have every right
to meddle in your life.

Because you're 15 years old,
because I'm your mother...

and I will always protect you.

Because I love you!

POLICE STATION

No...

I didn't know my wife was
the Black Rider, the Rider, whatever,

much less that she had dealings
with the DEA.

What did Teresa Mendoza and your wife
talk about?

What I told you, that's all they said
in front of me,

then they got in there to talk about
the evidence and I don't know what...

And did she ever mention to you
about other informants?

What did I just tell you?

I don't know anything else!

Look...

I don't know of any other informants.

I don't know about the DEA.
I don't understand anything.

Karen didn't have enough initiative

to get involved in something like that,
let alone...

having a cop for a lover, got it?

Oh, it seems that
what she had plenty of was initiative.

Excuse me...

They're coming for Mr. Quizpe.

Where will they take me?

Where do you think?
You'll be locked up for years.

Excuse me, sorry. Let's go.

So the bastard Epifanio

said he didn't want to do this anymore?

I don't know, but he didn't say

he was going to continue helping, either.

Oh, he's got no choice, man.

It's much more convenient for Epifanio
than it is for us to have that evidence.

For us?

I thought you were on your way out.

Out? What are you talking about?

Listen...

regardless of what you and I have

your father is in my plans.

What does that mean?

Well, it means that if you broke
into that prison to get me out...

I'm going to get your father out
from wherever he is, with you.

Without Epifanio's help, it is impossible.

Epifanio is not God, huh?
Even if he thinks he is God.

Listen, with or without his help,
we are going to get your dad out.

But I need you to promise something.

I need you...

to tell me if I can trust you.

-What's that about?
-I want to know...

that you're not a fucking sellout.

I don't know, that you are not married
and you don't have a harem.

That you don't want to steal from me
what I no longer have.

That you're not an undercover agent
for the CIA or the FBI.

Look, Pablo...

at this point in my life,
all I want from my partner

is to not lie to me.

Okay.

Well, then it's only fair
that you know this right away.

About a year ago...

I took vows of chastity,

and after I'm done with this,
I'll return to the monastery.

Will you?

I didn't know you were the type of woman
who put labels on things.

So...

Partners?

As long as you know
that I'm the one in charge.

Yes.

I didn't choose to come.

To this world? Me neither.

To Bolivia.

But in the end, it wasn't so bad either.

I've never had such an up-close look
at my father's work.

Sure, "work."

You were never bothered
by your dad's line of business?

What I didn't like was not seeing him.

But in the end, I got used to it.

As in everything.

So...

is it hard being
the Queen of the South's daughter?

Yes.

But not because of my mom.

In Spain, there are still people
who remember her and it is not easy.

We should create, I don't know,
a support group

for children of...

What should we call it
so it doesn't sound so harsh?

No, it's not a bad idea, but...

I don't like groups very much.

I finally see someone laughing.

The situation is tense outside.

Where were you?

Walking. Well, and also
running away from the mother-in-law.

It's just that she...

-She's not as bad as she looks.
-Teresa?

What about my mom?

You're not going to believe it,
watch this.

No, if that little key
had all the information,

well, just imagine it,
it would be amazing.

All the personal contact information,
address, email address, phone number

of all the informants.

No, it's just that...

We have hardly anything.

And as a key, it is very strange.

Okay...

This man is very pessimistic.

Just think about it.

When we started with all this,
we had less information

of that Black Rider
than about the other two.

-So, yes or no?
-Yes, that's right.

And we are not even talking
about the men from the DEA,

we've already lost them,
there is no way they can't find us.

Well, that's true.

We can move to another country,
do whatever we want.

They don't know us.

Unless we get ourselves in trouble
with a cop or something,

-they don't really know us.
-Uh...

I wouldn't be so sure.

You'd better see this
for yourselves.

I know
it's going to be difficult

to overcome everything
those bastards did to you,

but you have to trust once again.

Because in this life, there are also
very good people.

Did you hear me?

Enjoy, enjoy your freedom. Take care.

What the fuck am I doing there?

Without the lady and her friends...

we wouldn't be free.

We don't know why they did it,

but what I do know
is that I owe that lady everything.

I hope she will see this.

Then she'll know how grateful I am.

-When was this uploaded?
-Yesterday.

It already has 150000 views.

In the last ten minutes,
a thousand more people have seen it.

And that's not all.

And since solving mysteries is my thing,
I set out to find out.

And searching, searching,
look what I found for you.

For me, there is no doubt,

the woman who helped the missing girls
in Sucre, Bolivia, is her.

What do you say? Isn't it her?

And here I have to warn you, folks,
that the mystery continues,

because according to the press

and several reports that I started
to check out in my spare time,

this woman should be in jail,
in a prison in the United States

serving a sentence of more than 85 years

instead of saving girls in Bolivia.

Her name is Teresa Mendoza.

And she's known in the underworld
as the Queen of the South.

Oh, damn, we are fucked.

The re-election subject
is not a personal whim.

I'm not doing it for me,
I'm doing it for Mexico.

We have worked on rebuilding

a country devastated by corrupt elites,

that for years and years
had been mismanaged.

But six years are not enough
to rebuild all this.

We need more time

to make the Mexican people
feel proud of their country.

Mr. President, I have to tell you
that unemployment is on the rise.

Foreign investment is falling,

and crime rates are also on the rise.

So I'd like you to be a little bit clearer

regarding the advances
you are talking about.

We have given the people
their voices back.

We have given back to the Mexican people
pride in their country,

so that Mexicans
feel proud to be Mexicans.

And well, we are also working
in the educational reforms,

with the reform to...

to the... defense laws.

To... to the laws...

Energy laws, and political.

Energy, political, but well, kiddo,

you guys don't talk about this
at all, do you?

All you people do is hide the truth.

And make the Mexican people lose hope.

Mr. President, would you mind
if we change the subject?

No, not at all.

As long as Epifanio Vargas
is the president of this nation,

freedom of the press will be respected.

Very well, thank you very much,
Mr. President.

Then I would like you
to share your comments about this.

I know
it's going to be very difficult

to overcome everything
those bastards did to you,

but you have to trust once again.

Because in this life,
there are also good people.

Do you recognize her,
Mr. President?

No, no, I don't understand
what you're talking about here...

No, I don't understand your question.

Mr. President,
I repeat the question,

do you recognize this woman?

It's just... I'm... I'm telling you again,

I mean, I don't know
why you brought this up.

Mr. President, she is the main witness

in the trial that sent you to prison
14 years ago.

Are you going to tell me now
you don't recognize Teresa Mendoza?

Let's see, kiddo...

Because you've already
changed everything here.

You're disrespecting me,
I thought you're a serious journalist.

-No, I am not disrespecting you.
-Yes, you're...

You're fucking insulting me!

-Mr. President...
-And I won't allow this!

You're stepping out of all the bounds
we had set before this interview.

-I don't understand you!
-Sir, I'm just asking you a question!

I thought you're a journalist!

-Get out of here! Take this.
-Please cut.

-Cut, thank you.
-You go on.

I'm leaving.

-Mr. President!
-Excuse me.

It's a shame that you showed
a lack of respect for the President.

I'm not disrespecting him.

Please, we ask you to leave
the National Palace.

Thank you.

I don't know
how could I be such an idiot.

-I didn't think that could happen.
-No, no, no, no, Teresa.

No one could have imagined it.

They uploaded
another video of the shooting.

-What?
-From another angle.

At least, that one has only 50 views.

Because it has been up there
only five minutes...

The one from the blogger
who discovered you, has more than 700000.

Well, we're screwed!

Here's another one talking
about the shooting and about you.

This is a Spanish one.

Well, with so much fame,
hiding is no longer an option.

Look, another video
with the same title as the first one.

"With determination and desire."

No, you know what? That's enough.
I don't want to see anything.

Instead of watching all this shit
we have to do something to solve this.

Hey, but... That's Marina!

Turn up the volume.
Let's see what the little girl says.

I just wanted to tell you that
nothing of what they are saying is true.

That lady is no criminal,
that lady is a saint.

She set me free too.

I was in Potosi,
and she and her friends got me out.

And to those who are offering rewards
for her capture,

I want to tell them

-that it's not fair.
-Stop, stop!

-What reward is she talking about?
-I'm looking for it.

Here's something.

Uh, yeah...

They're offering five million dollars

for information that leads them
to your capture.

That's outrageous!
What are you going to do now, honey?

I mean, what are we going to do?

Holy shit, that's all I need! Epifanio!

And he is not calling
to wish me a happy day.

Come with me.

It's outrageous!

No, no, he's listening.
Here I am with him.

Good morning, sir.

No, no, no, no,
that good morning thing

save it for your old lady, okay?

You fucking idiots!

How did you let yourselves
be recorded, man?

You act like amateurs, for fuck's sake.

Hey, we can't control everything!

No, nothing, nothing.
You can control nothing, Teresita.

So now you feel
like Mother Teresa of Calcutta?

You go around rescuing little girls
like you're the Red Cross, or what?

We are doing what we have to do, Epifanio.

So you forgot why the fuck
did I get you out of jail?

No, I haven't forgotten.
And you know what?

Don't make such a fuss, huh?

Because that's my problem!

No, no, no way. You're always wrong!

The press has already started
asking me about you!

They don't forget
that we had a past, fuck it.

I'm fucking busy!

Excuse me, but...

-You've got to see this.
-What is this?

REWARD

Oh, fuck!
Hey, Teresita, have you seen yourself?

You're the DEA's most wanted!

It turns out I'm the last one
to learn about all this?

We just found out five minutes ago.

Sir, if I tell you we can find
the two Riders, it's because we can.

Well, didn't you say
things were not that easy before, man?

That it was difficult,

that it was going to be complicated,
the whole...

What are you talking about, then?

No, what really happens
is that we're so badass

that with all the clues,
we'll be able to make it, okay?

No, no, no. This time,
it's not gonna be so easy.

You've fooled me once, I gave you money,

I gave you freedom, I gave you everything.

And now you're just fucking with me, man!

What does it mean?

Well, it means
that we're going to set limits.

Yeah, from now on, I want
everyone with you implanted with chips.

Do you understand me?
Everyone without exception!

Your daughter, her boyfriend,
the Colombian, all of them!

You too, Landero, huh?

Because Montaño is going to be
monitoring you from here in Mexico.

So I don't want anyone to take it out.

The first one who pulls out a chip

or moves away
from where I want them to be,

is going to fuck off!

And listen to me, Teresa, don't go around
playing Mother Teresa of Calcutta.

You are Teresa, the Queen of the South!

So stop picking up girls

and taking them away
as if you were the Red Cross,

because if you don't, you're going
to take on the DEA alone.

That's fine with me.

Then, we're going to need more money.

But a lot more
than you've already invested!

Do you understand me?

Yeah, man! I'll take care of the money.

But you only have a month
to fulfill your promise, huh?

If not, the deal is off.

I don't know
what they're talking about

-that's taking them so long, huh?
-Life is weird.

What do you mean?

Teresa and Landero.

How many years
have you two known each other?

Many.

And now she seems
to trust him more than you.

My mom will never stop trusting Oleg.

Well, right now it doesn't seem that way.

Stop talking nonsense.

I'll be right back.

I need you
to talk to you-know-who.

Ask him for more money,
tell him we need more money.

I know how to repay him, later.

I doubt they'll accept this proposal
if it comes from me.

Then, make an appointment with him
and I'll come with you.

That is very dangerous.

Let's take this opportunity
to get out, man.

-Do it!
-All right.

-All right?
-Okay, I'll see you outside.

Okay.

-You sent for me, sir?
-I did.

Yes?

It's clear to you that my interview
cannot be released, right?

Uh, yeah, well...
I'll see what I can do, it's complicated.

I think we'd better plan
another strategy...

I think you'd better listen to me,
you moron.

I'm telling you my interview
won't come out

and it's not coming out.

Your job depends on it.
Is that clear to you?

Very clear, sir, I'll see what I can do.

No, you're not going to see
what you can do,

you'll do it.

Because if you don't, you're fired.

Uh... Of course, sir.

I just need to make a couple of calls
and that's it, yeah.

Uh-huh, that's right!

Uh... May I ask you a question?

All right.

Tell me.

Uh...

Were you aware
that Teresa Mendoza is out of prison?

I mean, has she tried to contact you?

Have you tried to contact her?
Have you tried anything?

Let's see, kiddo, come here, come closer.

Listen carefully
to what I'm going to tell you, Danilo,

because I won't say it again, okay?

Yes.

The last time I saw Teresa Mendoza

was when she, unjustly, put me in jail.

I've never... Listen closely, you moron...

I've never seen her again!

That's the official version,
is it clear to you?

And if anyone asks you if you know her...

you never met that woman.

Okay?

And now, go ahead

and set that photoshoot.

I'll be right back.

I'll see you later.

Yes, sir.

Can I keep you company?

Oh, I've never been as cold in my life
as I am here in Bolivia.

You were right.

About what?

What you told me about Tesa.

I...

I can't...

put a name to what I feel.

The way I feel about Tesa is...

different from the affection of a friend.

But I think I have reasons to be confused.

Yes.

I wouldn't tell you otherwise.

When I saw what she did for me,
and when I saw...

everything she risked to come with me
to London, to rescue Fedor,

I thought she was too...

But it is clear that I was wrong.

And now? What do you plan to do?

Get out of the way.

What does it mean?

Let's talk about you.

I'm sorry I didn't say anything
about the pregnancy.

I really didn't know
whether to congratulate you or...

Don't worry about it.

I still can't believe it.

How did Batman take it?

You know him...

He wants to have it,
he wants to have it at all costs.

And me...

I've never been more at loss.

And so the days go by
and I don't know what to do.

I'm like... like waiting for a sign.

From who?

I don't know, life.

Fucking gringo!

Hello?

You've taken your sweet time
to return my call, haven't you?

I think you've got
the wrong man for this mission.

Your goddaughter was supposed
to keep a low profile.

What the fuck? Take it down a notch.

Don't you try to blame me.

And don't play dumb, motherfucker.

Did you know there were two more Riders?

It was my understanding that there was
only one Rider, the Black Rider.

That is the information I received.

That's why! We have the wrong information.

We are flying blind!

I already told you everything I knew.

And that's why you're talking to me?

Is that why you spent your money
on long distance calls, you idiot?

I just called

to tell you that Kozar
is pulling the strings.

She is not standing back
with her arms folded.

Tell me, what was his obsession
in naming his accomplices Riders?

He had him, the Black Rider,
the White Rider, you...

What was your Rider's name again?

ON THE NEXT EPISODE...

According to the instructions I got,

you can count on me for whatever you need.

Can we trust that contact?

Well, no, but we have no choice.

Okay, ready, let's go on with the photos.

Yes, sir!

What's the kid
doing with the phone?

I know you love my daughter.
But love is not enough.

Not that my clients
don't want to collaborate...

They want something as well.

What about Epifanio's revenge?
Where is it now?

That bastard killed my kids

and he'll pay for what he did to me,
do you understand me?

We're in for a rough ride...

And I hope no one regrets
volunteering to go to war.

And after we get the money, what?
What's next?

Our triumphant entrance,
no more, no less.
