La Reina del Sur (2011–2019): Season 3, Episode 7 - Desaparecida - full transcript

A NETFLIX SERIES

ON THE PREVIOUS EPISODE

I thought it was my end.

Well, that's the key, the kidnapped girls.

They said they were journalists.

-Where did they go?
-To look for the girl's mother.

In Lanza Market.

So you have it?

Here. All yours.

They sent us this.

-What is this?
-It's his.



Please believe him!

He's going to die!

All right, girlie.

You have four hours to get me the pills.

Or else, we'll kill your little boyfriend.

Look, you have three hours to get here

-and with the merchandise in hand.
-Three hours?

-Three hours is a very short time.
-Don't push your luck.

Orders are orders
and you better get here with the pills.

Or you forget about your buddies.

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO

The indicative spread
we were able to collect

before you made the announcement

about a possible re-election,
Mr. President,



and the opinions
that we were able to gather

after that announcement was made
about a possible re-election,

shows a slight upward trend.

The curve is favorable, however,

-voting by position...
-Wait, stop right there

because you're confusing me
with so much babbling.

What do the people say?

Can I be reelected or not?

Mr. President,
if the elections were today,

you would be re-elected as president.

Right on.

Now we are understanding each other.

That's right, sir. There is
only one slight downside to all of this.

To do that,
we need to amend the Constitution

and you know we don't have
a majority in Congress.

It would be a bit complicated
to get it, if not,

-impossible, I'd say.
-My boy.

When the people love you

as they love me, and I them,

-nothing is impossible.
-Mr. President.

Sorry to interrupt,
but it's urgent that you see this.

This recording shows us leaving the hotel.

We are in this car

and this is the car that is watching us.

This is a second camera,

and the same car
that is in the first one appears.

Well, we can't deduce
that they're following me.

There is a third camera.

This corresponds to Puerto Palomas.

It's the bank's security camera

and the car appears again.

If you allow me, Mr. President,

these people are watching us.

I assume you already have the plates

and that you already investigated the car.

Yes, sir. It has a theft notice.

So, by following me,

-these bastards found him.
-Exactly.

You know what?

The important thing is to know

who the fuck is following us and why.

I'll take care of it, sir.

Sorry...

where are the fruit stalls?

This way. Come on, ma'am,
I'm going to tell you.

Down this hall, up to the bottom.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

There she is, over there.

-Excuse me.
-Yes?

We are looking for Sonia. Do you know her?

-Yes, I know her.
-Yes?

-Yes.
-And where can we find her?

On the third floor.

To the right, there is a stall.

-She's there.
-And how do we get there?

By going up to the right.

Thanks.

Please, Faustino,
tell me where I can get those pills.

Sofía, stop for a moment.

Are you aware of what you are asking us?

Do you understand that you are putting
yourself and us in danger?

-What if they followed you?
-They wouldn't.

They know I'm not going
to put Mateo at risk.

Please, you are the only one
who can help me and my friend.

I have very little time left, Faustino!

It's just that I...
To be honest, I know nothing

about those pills, that's not my market.

But surely you know someone.
An ex-friend, someone!

But I don't know anyone here.

The ones I knew are dead.
And the others don't even want to see me.

Then lend me money.

As soon as I have mine,
I'll return it to you.

-Maybe if I pay, they'll let him go.
-Sofía.

If they catch you with money, they will
take it from you. It's not that easy.

Think a bit. Let's relax, let's think.

Where are you going?

I'm going to sell the motorcycle,
cell phone, tablet,

-whatever is necessary to get that money.
-Hey, hey, one moment.

Just a minute. Let's calm down, okay?
Let me think.

I think I have an ace under my sleeve,
but we got to move fast.

And trust me, I won't put you in danger.

Walk, then.

Calm down, dear.

You're going to get sick.
Everything is going to be all right.

Sorry for the interruption.

Ma'am, are you Sonia?

Could we talk to you for a moment?

It's about your daughter.

What happened to my girl?

Do you know anything about her?

No, we don't know anything.

But if you allow me, we can help.

And who are you?
You don't look like locals.

We are documentarians.
We are interested in...

Ma'am.

We know you are going through
a very difficult time.

We understand that it hurts you a lot
to talk about your daughter.

-But any information you can give us...
-And your cameras?

We are still in the investigation phase.

We need to know
the last days of your daughter.

If you have any information...

Do you remember if she saw
any strangers in the last few days?

Ma'am, this is not the time.
Look how she is.

The more people know what's going on,

the more chances there are
of finding the girl.

No, please, leave her alone.

Leave her alone. Go away at once.

These people want to look for my girl.

And I don't know who to ask
or where to go!

Flaco, to the right. You, first floor.

From behind.

I'll go here through the middle. Quickly!

Gael Sanchez Godoy gave me a list

of all the people
who sell cameras in La Paz.

Well, we're going to need
a couple of laptops, too.

One. Some headphones,
tablets, and spare cell phones.

With all that dough,

we are going to buy all the cameras
in La Paz and we'll have some to spare.

I'll be more at ease if you give us
a couple more wads, just in case.

I'll give it back if there's any left.

All right. We're fucked.

The people of Mexico are dying of hunger,

and the fucking president
is wasting money on nonsense, right?

You, speaking of morals? Really?

You? Really? Don't think
you're so different from Epifanio.

I am very different from Epifanio, dude.

Is that clear?

This is the last time you compare me
to that bastard, do you understand?

'Cause I might not know flying kicks
from Kung Fu Panda,

but I'd make you bite the dust.

-Well, you don't scare me. Not a bit.
-I'm not doing it to scare you.

Don't play with fire
if you're not ready to get burnt.

Let's go.

-Did you go to the police?
-Yes,

but they told me they have to wait
72 hours before looking for her.

It's always so.
The police never do anything.

First, because it's too early,
and then because it's too late.

-They're not interested in it.
-And how do you know that?

Because it also happened to me.

My daughter has been missing
for over a year,

and the only thing the police have done
is to lose the file.

I'm so sorry.

Her daughter also disappeared.

-Also?
-She's been missing

for eight months already.

I don't know anything about her.

Every time we know
of another missing girl,

we come to comfort the mother.

It's the only thing we can do,
support each other.

Sonia.

Please remember.

Has your daughter had any contact
with a stranger in the last few days?

If they stop two, it's too much.

They let them go because they say
they don't have enough evidence.

Flaco, they're in the food court. Come up.

Do you know that I have a daughter?

I understand perfectly
what you are going through.

Months went by
without me knowing of her whereabouts.

So I understand perfectly
what you're going through.

And we're going to help her.

As much as possible. Also...

Stay still. Put your guns down.

-Come on. Fast.
-Yeah.

-Let her go.
-Put your guns down

if you don't want me to shoot your friend.

Throw them away!

Put them down.

-Now!
-Do it.

-Okay, okay.
-Drop them.

Relax.

Do it.

You, too.

Let's go walking.

We're going with you, but leave her alone.

-Shut up. Shut up.
-All right.

-Right around the corner. Walk.
-We're going.

No!

-Let's get in the car.
-Open the door!

Hurry!

Get on, get on, get on. Ma'am, get on.

Move! Let's go!

Start.

What? I can't do that.

What's the point
of this partnership, then?

-Are we or are we not friends?
-No, no, no.

Us doing a business from time to time
doesn't mean we are friends.

In addition, the merchandise
that is seized cannot disappear.

Who said it's going to disappear?

It's a loan. What's more,
think of it like I'm doing you a favor.

Oh, sure.
What flavor of ice cream do you want?

Come on. It's very simple.

You deliver the merchandise here
to my sister-in-law, right?

My sister-in-law is going to the court

and he gives it to a man there,
and it's lost.

We follow the man with the drugs

to find his hideout.

Do you know what happens then?

You come in,

you catch him and recover the merchandise,

and you imprison all those bastards.

And guess who's left
for cop of the year, you hear?

You, son.

I'm begging you.
You are the only one who can help us.

If I don't get there in 20 minutes,
they'll kill him.

It was because they followed me
that they found her.

-And that was discovered by Montaño?
-Well...

I don't understand why they didn't make
your meeting with her public.

-That would have been devastating.
-Yeah.

That's what's bothering me,

that they haven't dropped
such a bomb against me.

That means they have something way bigger.

-Did you bring what I asked for?
-Yes.

I only glanced at it, but...

I think the key may be here.
INT did a great job.

It's a list of your enemies.

-The most important ones.
-Mm.

They are classified by occupation.

The level of risk goes
from highest to lowest.

There's a bit of all, politicians,

judges, journalists.

-Those with an asterisk...
-Uh-huh.

...they are the ones
to be more careful with.

What I like is that they put
my father-in-law as a politician

and not as my family.

And what do you plan to do
with this information?

Ask the INT

to tap the phones

of the most important politicians
on this list.

But that's illegal, mate.
If anyone finds out,

-we're done for.
-So what, mate?

It will not be the first or the last time.

Make sure no one finds out.

Look,

if the rat that wants
to set me up is here,

we'll have a mousetrap waiting for them.

Fucking Mexicans.

Tell me who you really are.

The only thing we can tell you
is that we are here to help you.

And to find the one responsible
for all the missing girls.

Are you cops?

We're not cops, but I assure you,
we're on your side, ma'am.

Look,

not that we don't want your help, but...

in real life, people like you,

well, they don't exist.

Someone who wants to help us
in exchange for nothing.

-If you want to charge us, we...
-No, ma'am.

We are not going to charge you a penny.

I don't understand, then.

Look, I know it's hard to believe,

but I suffered the kidnapping
of my daughter.

I know how it feels and I know
what you are going through, so...

I swear, for my daughter,
whom I love the most,

that we are going to help you.

And have you managed to find out anything?

Not much. This is all we have.

It can't be.

-What's wrong?
-She's my daughter!

My girl. She is my daughter. My girl.

It's her.

MISSING GIRL

She is one of them.

-And when did she disappear?
-A year and a half ago.

The same day that photo was taken.

-How are you so sure?
-Because it's the same place,

because she is wearing the same clothes.

That same day she sent me a video
to my cell phone.

-A video?
-Yes, a video.

Look.

Copy that. Yes, sir, as you order.

-I got it.
-Hey, hey.

Be more discreet.
You want us to get arrested?

If you want, take the bag.

Now, can you ask your boss
to release my friends?

What's that fool talking so much about?

Why isn't he taking that package?

What's the matter?

Nothing. A little change of plans.

You come with me.

What? No.

Hey, what is this man doing?

Why is he taking her away?
This was not the plan.

Commando Z here.

The target is in the vehicle.
Let's follow him.

Be very careful with the girl.
We cannot put her at risk.

Copy that, Captain.

They have deceived us
and locked us in a room.

They brought us here blindfolded,

-but we're...
-What are you doing?

-What do you have there?
-Every time I see that,

my heart stops, Miss.

That was the last time you heard from her?

Six months later,

-she called me.
-And what did she say?

The line was spotty.
We talked for less than a minute.

She told me that...

that I shouldn't worry,
that they were treating her better

than when they kidnapped her, and...

But she didn't tell you where she was

-or where they were taking her?
-No.

She just said that

someone was helping her.

It was a weird name.

Some...

rider...

-Rider?
-Yes.

Black Rider.

You, girl, come.

That boyfriend of yours wouldn't shut up.

We had to gag him since you were late.

But I complied.

-You can release him now.
-How bossy.

First things first, honey.

Uncle, what was the amount
that was stolen from me?

-I have to check if it's of good quality.
-Now, can my friends and I go?

Of course not.

I need you to tell me

how it was so easy

for you to find these pills.

It doesn't matter where or how I got them.
What matters is that they are yours.

No, the important thing
is that I have to know where,

how, and who is my competition.

The problem is not them.
It's just three escorts and the boss.

The only problem is,

how do we protect the kids
before attacking?

Let me see.

Nah, those bastards
aren't going to let them go so easily.

I know how it is.

Do you like to sing? Sing now.

I bought them
from a friend who is an addict.

You heard that? From a friend.

Are you taking me for a fool? What friend?

-Who is that friend? Tell me who.
-A friend.

Commando Z.

This is Commando Z. No one moves
until I give the order. Over.

All right, just so you know
that I'm a fair man,

you leave,
but your friend stays here, huh?

Until you tell me who.

The cops! They set us up!

Advance! Move on, fast!

You're a bitch!

Throw him in the water!

No!

Hey!

Freeze!

Freeze! Police! Put the gun down!

-Come on, come on!
-Don't shoot.

-Trujillo!
-Yes?

Help me with the pulley!

Hey! Grab that!

-Move! I said, move!
-Hey!

Are you ready? I'll pull you up now.

Hurry up!

Jeez.

I surrender.

But what is this?

That man is more alive than...

How?

How are you, Mateo?

Hey.

I've been informed that criminal
has been wanted for a long time,

but they lost track of him
until we arrived.

I owe you one. Thanks.

And you, girl, watch your back, all right?

I hope he knows how lucky he is
to have a friend like you.

Thank you very much.

Come on! Get moving!

You had never drunk like this.

And much less to sleep.

I know you by heart.

And I know something isn't right.

What happened to you in the market?

What are you talking about?

You were paralyzed when the guy fell over.

Does it have something to do
with Yulia's death?

Jonathan told me.

Oleg.

Weren't we friends through thick and thin?

What's the point?
What happened is beyond remedy.

Also, I'm not good at opening up.

You know it.

You're here to avenge
Yulia's death, right?

You must miss her a lot, right?

Very much.

Her and Fedor.

Who is he with?

Alone.

-In London, I think.
-You think?

Four of clubs.

Nine of diamonds.

Ace of diamonds.

Fedor lacks nothing.

On the contrary, he is a brilliant kid.

I have to go meet them, Fedor.

This call was strange.

LONDON, A YEAR BEFORE

Maybe we have to go to Mexico.

There, you could look for something to do.

Did you hear me?

I'm not going to follow you anymore.

I'm not asking you if you want to come.

You have to come.

Why are you forcing me?

If you are not convinced

about coming with me to be together,
as father and son that we are,

-do it for your safety.
-My safety?

Are you going to defend me, too,
like you did with Mom?

I love you.

He could never get over
his mother's death.

-You haven't seen him again?
-No.

We talk sometimes on the phone.

But less and less.

I think I'm losing him.

Perhaps, I already did.

He blames me for his mother's death.

And he's right.

Gentlemen,
we have news from the air force.

There is a record of Sorbello Corto
just on the day you said.

35 a.m., the plane enters Colombian sky
in the northern part of the country.

It was a short time.
We couldn't intervene.

Well, the only purpose of such a flight

is for dropping paratroopers.

Here is La Guajira county.

It's a desert area, but...

One second.

Ruiz.

Yes. Uh-huh.

The daughter.

Did they confirm that it's her?

Italian.

-I found her.
-Okay, right away.

We still don't know anything
about Teresa Mendoza,

but we know of her daughter.

It enters Colombia
on a commercial flight from Spain,

arrives in Bogota,

then goes to Santa Marta.

This is La Guajira, a desert area.

And right here was the flyby.

It's more or less
three or four hours away.

Call the Santa Marta police

-and organize our arrival.
-Perfect.

What?
Are you one of those who never sleep?

I think I'm not the only one.

And what keeps you awake?

Well, getting rid of you and your friends.

Where did you learn karate?

It's not karate, it's Krav Maga.

-Krav what?
-Krav Maga.

A combat system
created by the Israeli army.

Mm.

-The army, yes.
-Mm-hmm.

Can you teach me?

Nope.

I have no interest in being your coach.

Nor anyone's, actually.

You're just scared I'll beat you.

Mm, no, that will never happen.

-It won't?
-No.

Okay, make your bet.

I just need a couple of months.

-What are you doing?
-Listening to the kidnapper's voice,

to know how that
Black Rider talks at least.

Let me hear.

They have deceived us
and locked us in a room.

They brought us here blindfolded,

-but we are...
-What are you doing?

What do you have there?

Can you play it again but slower?

-Why? What's wrong?
-We have...

I think I saw something. Let's see.

What are you doing?

What do you have there?

One more time.

What are you doing?

-What do you have there?
-There.

The logo. Can you make it bigger?

Do you think this can help us?

Well, I don't know.
But we have to find out, right?

What do you think?

That, for the first time,
I agree with you.

Three men
and you couldn't find out anything.

You don't understand?

I don't understand.

You don't care they were your friends?

Of course we care, Mr. Tejada,
but in the market, nobody wanted to talk.

And they were looking
for the mother of the girl?

The gringo and his buddies?

Do you know where she lives at least?

I went there, but she never arrived.

I left a man watching,
but she must smell danger by now

and won't come back home.

I still don't know how,

but I'll make those fuckers pay for this.

I swear by all my men they've killed,
damn it.

Get lost.

Now! Let's get them. Move! Move!

Be ready.

You, here, here, here!

Chest pass, only chest pass.

Come on, Mateo, open your eyes!
Jump! Cut there, Omar.

Put it in!

Whoa! Well done!

Let's give it our all. Come on, guys.

Damn it. Let's go!

What's going on? Come on!

Mateo, wake up! Yeah, there.

Yes! Well done.

Let's take a break.
Drink some water and come back.

Hey, Mateo.

Hey, what's wrong?
You are very distracted, huh?

Father.

It's just... I didn't know
that Sofía also knew how to dive.

Look, if it weren't for that little girl,
you would not be playing with us.

You would be dressing
to officiate at my funeral.

Stop talking bullshit, okay?

All right,

can I ask you a question?

And since when does Father Gonzo here
ask permission to ask a question, huh?

You like her a lot?

Who told you I liked her?

Not the Holy Spirit, that's for sure.
I can tell.

Okay, yes.

I do like her. So what?
Is there a problem?

No, nothing, but it's too soon.
Hold on, drop the speed.

What I don't understand

is why she fights better than a boxer,

knows how to dive,
has friends in the police,

and even has money
to give you a cell phone.

-Do you see something wrong with that?
-No, nothing.

But it's odd. Just think about it.

Break's over, don't you think?

Now, Mom, don't think about it anymore.

How can you say that?

You are not understanding.
You are not aware of what happened.

-It was very serious.
-Yes, but it's over.

-Nothing happened.
-Oh, really?

You got into a mess with the police.
I can't understand it.

I asked you just one thing,

that you take care of yourself
and that you keep a low profile.

Is it too much to ask of you or what?

And I don't want you
to see this Mateo again.

Oh, please, Mom, stop overreacting.

-Enough. It's not his fault.
-"Overreacting"?

No, I'm not overreacting.
If you had stayed at home,

-that would have never happened.
-I went to see a friend.

Mateo has been very good to me.

I don't know
if he's been good to you or not.

That guy is into some really weird stuff
with dangerous people.

Him and his friends. I don't know.

No, he's not into anything weird.

Mateo simply wanted to help someone

that had dealings with people
who, mind you,

you know very well, Teresa.

Sorry? Listen, Sofía.

Stop it. I'm warning you.

You have no idea what you're saying.

-Yes, Mom. Yes, I know.
-I told you to stop.

You were the one who started bringing up
the weird business thing, not me.

Businesses that you know very well, Mom.

Businesses that put me in danger
in Spain, Mom.

For being you, for who you are.

Believe me, I would have loved
if they weren't right

and avoid all that embarrassment...

Sorry.

Forgive me. I didn't mean that.

You know what, Sofía?

We better talk when we are both calmer.

Take care, please. And listen to me now.

For moments like these,

a tequila always comes in handy.

Or vodka.

It was much easier
when she was eight years old.

Who would have thought

that years ago when we met,

we were going to end up like this?

With children who question us.

Maybe if we had thought about it
so long ago,

we would have done things much better.

We did what we could.

Right?

And the most important,

we have survived.

Looking forward is our only option now.

Would you like something else
to liven up the occasion?

Maybe some music or something?

What's wrong?

The logo belongs to a tourism company,
Bolivia World.

They organize fights between cholitas.

Huh?

Let's see. It's like wrestling fights,

but with women dressed
in typical costumes.

Cholitas.

The fights are held here in El Alto.

In a very famous neighborhood.

But this is the best of all.

Tomorrow, there are fights.

CHOLITAS IN ACTION

And something tells me

that the Black Rider may be there.

Hurry up, I don't have all day.

Come in.

You're dismissed.

I already have
what you asked for, Commander.

You can send for it.

If you and Teresa

don't find out quickly
who the Black Rider is,

the enemies are going to fuck Epifanio.

And you and I along the way.

Especially you...

and your plans.

ON THE NEXT EPISODE

This is how I imagine fucking heaven.

Although it's hard for you to believe it,

I am not Epifanio's foreman

-nor anyone's.
-You aren't?

If you knew who I am, you'd be surprised.

Who told you I want to know?

You're too obvious.

No, no, Officer, wait a moment.

I can explain all about that backpack...

-Stop!
-Don't move!

What do you mean she's in the bathroom?

If she's in the bathroom, what are you
doing on the phone?

-Oh, sir...
-What part

of "don't take your eyes off her"
you didn't understand?

Hello, Gonzo. I want to invite you,

your sister,
and your brother-in-law to eat.

If we don't go, Mateo might
suspect we're hiding something.

I mean, doesn't anyone care
that the girl hiding here

is the daughter of Teresa Mendoza or what?

Do you know her?

She was here about three or four days ago.
