Liar (2020): Season 1, Episode 1 - ¿Me crees? - full transcript
NETFLIX PRESENTS
How was it?
- I don't think I can live without this.
- Yeah.
- Today is the day, right?
- Yes.
- Are you okay?
- Yes.
I mean, I guess. Bit by bit, I suppose.
Yeah, well, you better go.
And if you need anything, let me know.
Thank you.
See you tomorrow.
- See you.
- See ya.
I thought you would've been gone by now.
I know. Sorry. I'll be out of here soon.
Hi, Laura.
- Hey, Nico. How you doing?
- I'm fine.
Good to see you.
You too.
Well, all yours.
Thank you.
I tried to talk to him out of it,
but he told me that
he has to stay with you. So here.
Maybe I can come visit him on weekends.
- You're an idiot.
- Hmm.
Keep in touch, okay?
All right.
I don't know, Dad.
I mean, I don't want to offend you, but...
I was kinda thinking more of a party,
with my friends, with girls.
You don't even want me
around to watch the game?
- That's not what I mean.
- I get it. It hurts, but I accept it.
- I can take it.
- Why don't you go out?
Without me. Alone.
When's the last time
you did something fun?
Mm-hmm.
"Mm-hmm," come on, Dad.
I think you need it.
Mm-hmm.
You're getting old.
I'm worried. Soon you'll be
throwing out your back, having sciatica...
Get out of my car.
Don't worry,
I'll hook you up with a sick nursing home.
- Get out.
- Love you.
Lucas...
You'll forget your head one day.
Have you got your keys?
Your little sayings
are getting old, you know.
- Get going.
- See you!
Some parents can be so annoying.
You're right.
I don't know where I get it from.
By the way, uh, the book is excellent.
Really? Where are you in it?
I will read it.
Up to you,
but Carpentier is one of the greats.
- How are you? Better?
- No.
- But I'll get there. Thanks.
- I'm sure you will.
- Good morning, Ms. Munar.
- Good morning, Amal.
So, I wanted to ask you...
It's probably a bit too soon,
but if you ever want to get
a drink sometime, I'd be delighted.
No expectations. Whatever you want.
- Yes. Yes, sure.
- Thank you.
Sure. I think it's a good idea.
Great.
Another day.
Okay.
Well, nobody's
telling you to get married.
All I'm saying is,
I don't know, you could have some fun.
You're too young,
my darling, so go for it!
Iván just moved out today.
- You see, it's time to move on.
- It was 13 years, Ricard.
My point exactly.
We'll see.
- I don't know what to do.
- Man, it's nothing.
Look, just take a hoodie and that's it.
- Yeah?
- Sure.
Look, there she is.
Go get her, man.
- Hello, my love.
- Hello.
- Any plans tonight?
- No, nothing.
- You might get bored later.
- Morning!
- Instead, watch a movie with Lucas Vera?
- Seats, please.
Oh, maybe.
But I'm choosing the film,
yours are so boring.
Lucas Vera.
Will you be teaching class this morning?
- I'm good.
- No?
- No, no.
- Not feeling inspired?
That's what I thought.
So, "The tulips are too excitable,
it is winter here."
I am assuming everyone here
has read the poem by Sylvia Plath,
the one I sent you yesterday.
Teach, you dropped your cell phone.
Where?
I promise you won't find it so funny
when you're failing my class.
Since you're so lively this morning,
Lucas, come on up.
- Nah, seriously?
- Seriously.
I want you to write down every
rhetorical device you see in that poem.
We haven't got all morning, Lucas.
Pfft.
Hmm.
Well...
this here, when you use a word
over and over, that's one, isn't it?
I don't know. You tell us.
Um...
Remember, tomorrow we're
looking at cursed poets. No excuses!
Amal, have a minute?
Yeah.
Is everything okay?
I'm fine. Yeah.
You didn't participate in class
at all today. Are you sure?
Well, no matter what,
I'm here if you need to talk.
I know. Thank you.
Xavier...
your patient is ready.
One minute.
Cata...
Yeah?
What's your sister's
favorite kind of food?
Huh?
Really?
You have to tell me everything.
Tell me!
You should have told him Italian.
And you
should've told me about the date.
Just relax. It'll be fun.
Cata, it's been half my life
since I dated anyone that wasn't Iván.
Exactly.
It's about time to move on.
- Just go have fun.
- Okay.
Hello.
- Hello.
- How are you?
- Fine. And you?
- Great.
Sorry I'm a little late.
Don't worry about it. I already ate.
All right.
- I'm having some wine. Want a glass?
- Yes, please.
- Have you ever been here?
- No.
It's beautiful.
How's it going?
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
You look happy.
You have fun last night?
Hmm?
"Hmm?"
Ah!
- What do you mean? You love it.
- Come on, let's go.
Laura! Hungover? What?
Let's talk later, okay?
Sure, tell me later.
THANKS FOR AN UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT
I DIDN'T WANT TO WAKE YOU
Come on, Mateo. Finish your juice.
- Are you all done?
- Yeah.
Okay, go get your backpack.
Hurry, we're gonna be late.
I'll get it!
Laura?
Come in.
Can you come out here a minute?
Your mind is somewhere else.
- I need a minute.
- So did you go back to her place or not?
I'm not telling you anything.
I'm a lawyer.
I won't stop until I know everything.
- I won't.
- Come on, Dr. Romance.
Was she any good?
Don't be crude, man. Okay? I like her.
I want to see her again.
- I'm not giving details.
- So, then you did.
Just please don't
tell me you messaged her?
- She read it, but didn't answer.
- Then forget about her.
You look weak. The ball's in her court.
Yeah.
Almost feel like I'm in high school.
- Ready now?
- Come on.
Whoa! What was that?
I'm sorry. My bad.
Then I let him into my place
because his ride wasn't there yet.
Everything was okay.
Had you been drinking?
Yes, a bit. I only had, um...
two or three glasses at dinner
and a few before that
while I was getting ready.
It wasn't the wine, Cata.
I remember it all perfectly.
We were making out a bit.
I was happy, and then...
and then I was...
I found myself on my own bed,
but on my back,
and he was on me.
- I think I told him to stop.
- You think?
I didn't want to sleep with him, Cata.
- But...
- I didn't want to.
Yes, but, did you...
say that? Or push him? Anything?
I swear that I did. It's just...
I'm not sure. It's almost like
it happened to... to another person.
I just want to make sure
I'm understanding right.
Are you telling me that...
that you think...
that Xavier raped you?
Come here.
It's okay.
Did you like the place?
It was nice, but...
you've been wanting
to take me out for a while
so I was expecting
something more, I guess.
Are you serious?
Of course.
No, you're not.
No.
Hello. I'm Cata.
I spoke to you on the phone.
Hello. And you're Laura, right?
Come with me.
SON AMER CLINIC
This is Cristina.
She's the duty forensic nurse,
and she is going to examine you.
All right?
Laura, we are going to need
your underwear, okay?
And your jeans and your sweater too.
Here.
Put this on.
Are you all right?
After the examination
and the toxicology report,
we will call the police.
You can file the report here
so you won't need to go to the station.
All right?
- Yeah.
- Don't worry.
Okay, let's start.
If your gown falls,
you can hold it to cover yourself.
Whatever makes you feel comfortable.
May I have your arm, please?
May I? This one.
That's it.
Very good.
There.
Oh, my God.
I need you to open your mouth.
Open.
That's it.
Open. Now tilt your head back.
There you go.
All done. That's it.
If Lucas saw us like this, he'd laugh.
- Lucas laughs at everything.
- Really?
Don't tell me, he's the class clown.
Well... this is it.
Thank you very much for dinner
and for walking me home.
No, thank you. You made my night.
I'm glad.
- I'll see you soon.
- Bye.
- Good night.
- Good night.
Oh!
- What's wrong?
- Nothing.
I was gonna call a taxi,
but my phone just died.
Just now, huh? Wow!
- That's one smart phone.
- No, no, no. Don't think that.
Look.
- We can call from mine.
- Thank you.
Hello, yes, good evening.
I would like to order a taxi.
Trafalgar 12.
- Thirty minutes?
- No, I'll just walk home.
Yes, that's perfect. Thank you.
See you soon. Thanks.
- Thank you. I'll just wait here.
- If you want to.
- Good night.
- Good night.
Or we can have some wine while we wait,
because you're
practically in my living room,
and it'd be kind of silly of me
to make you wait out here alone.
I think my front door's unlocked.
I'm ashamed at myself.
Laura, they're here now.
Are you ready?
Laura...
I'm Detective Daniela Bauzá
and this is my partner Víctor Silva.
We'd like you to tell us what happened.
Okay?
Shall we?
I'll be right here.
Blood pressure, 90/55.
Regular heartbeat.
Good.
Let's close him up.
- Excuse me.
- Yes?
Dr. Xavier Vera?
Yes, he's in an operation at the moment.
May we speak with him?
It's urgent.
Um, please wait here,
I'll get him for you.
Thank you.
Good job, everybody.
Thank you for
stepping in at the last minute.
- Any word from Cata?
- No.
Dr. Vera, there are two officers outside.
They're asking for you.
- Can you finish up here?
- Yes, of course.
It's the two people over there.
Thank you.
Mr. Vera?
Uh-huh.
I'm agent Daniela Bauzá,
we're with the Police Department.
- Is it my son?
- No, your son is fine. Don't worry.
We're here because
there's been an accusation
made against you for sexual assault.
What?
You have the right to remain silent
and the right to an attorney,
but your silence could be detrimental
to your appearance before a court.
Do you understand?
Yes, but still, I'm not going anywhere.
You got the wrong guy.
You can come freely
or under arrest. It's your call.
I might need a minute.
- That's fine. We'll wait.
- Thank you.
I hate hospitals.
Mom would know what to say.
There is nothing to say.
Hello?
- Hello!
- Mom!
- Hey! Look who's here.
- Mom!
Look at these costumes. You look amazing.
How's it going?
Not well, to be honest.
Well, your aunt's gonna stay here
with us until she gets better. Hmm?
I'm going to lie down.
You're both irresistible.
I'm warning you,
if my sister ends up knowing about this,
I'll kill you. Unless she kills you first.
- I won't say a word.
- You'd better not.
Can I open this one?
I don't know. Can you?
I'm sorry!
I'm sorry. Are you okay?
I just came to ask for your keys
because I want
to get some things of yours.
It won't take long.
POLICE LINE
DO NOT CROSS
Excuse me, miss,
you can't be in here.
This is actually my sister's house.
I wanted to get her some things.
No, I'm sorry.
You'll have to wait until we're finished.
Oh.
FORENSIC POLICE
- Well, should I just wait outside?
- Yes. I'll let you know when we're done.
You have to stop calling me.
No.
No, I'm busy at the moment. It's just...
I don't know when, okay?
Let it go. Please, no more.
Please. I'm begging you.
The taxi was
taking a long time to get there.
I was hoping that I could charge my phone.
I'm a doctor. I have a son.
So you gave her your phone
because it was dead?
No.
She told me that
she had a charger in her bedroom.
So I went with her.
Then we both kissed.
- You mean you made a move?
- No. She kissed me.
I'm sure she did.
What happened after the kiss, Mr. Vera?
This is ridiculous.
I'm not discussing that.
- She's saying that you raped her.
- No, that's not true.
I didn't. We both got on the bed.
And...
Do I seriously have to go into detail?
I know it's embarrassing,
but you have nothing to hide.
So don't worry.
When you laid down, were you on top?
- Yes.
- Did you push her onto the bed?
No, I didn't push her.
No, she...
We were holding each other.
Did she ever say stop?
No, never. I took off her clothes.
She...
she even took mine off.
We didn't say anything.
We were both being... you know.
No, we don't know.
If I had known...
If I'd actually believed
she didn't want to sleep with me
then we wouldn't have done it.
Why did she make up this whole lie?
I don't get it. It was all going great.
I mean, I thought it was
the beginning of something for us.
It was nice. I texted her.
Yes.
"Thank you for
an unforgettable night." We read it.
Right. So...
You believe me, right?
You can both go for now.
Thank you very much. Have a good day.
You're free to go.
They're opening an investigation,
but they've got nothing at the moment.
At the moment?
There's nothing else to find. I mean it.
No need to convince me.
Now, just relax. Get some rest.
Tomorrow morning we'll talk more.
But everything's okay.
Don't worry.
All right, who took my keys?
- I have an operation in an hour.
- Look in the fridge!
Yes, in the bowl.
Come on,
eat your breakfast or you'll be late.
Are you gonna tell me
what's going on with Laura?
But I already told you.
She fell apart.
She doesn't want to be alone, misses Iván.
Come on, Cata.
It happened last night.
But don't...
Just please tell her I told you, okay?
Come on.
Cata, it's been half my life
since I dated anyone that wasn't Iván.
Exactly.
And it's about time to move on.
Just go and have fun.
Dad! Hurry up,
I'm going to be late!
Hold on.
I can't believe it.
Xavier?
Mm.
Do the police know about the other time?
Why would they need to know, Sergio?
Why would you say that to me?
Forget it. I don't know.
I'm just worried about her, that's all.
Good morning. I'm leaving for school.
- Make you something before you go?
- You can't be seriously going into work.
I'm not hungry, but thanks.
- This is not a good idea, Laura.
- I need a distraction.
Goodbye, kids!
Bye, Laura!
Let's go!
Sorry, I had to work late last night.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
I should have told you
before going into surgery.
I'm used to it. Don't worry.
Hey, is that a complaint?
No, just being honest.
Come on. Let's go.
Coming.
- Geez, Dad. You doing okay?
- Yes. Why?
- I don't know. You didn't have any coffee.
- Don't be a pain. Get going.
Good morning! Get to your seats, please!
Sit down everybody. Now.
Thank you.
I don't know what I'm doing here,
trying to teach literature
to a bunch of chimpanzees.
Well, maybe if you were
on time we'd be calmer.
All right, just stop, Lucas!
I am sick of your lack of respect.
Stand up, please
and go to the principal's office, now.
Wait, what?
I said stand up and go
to the principal's office right now.
- I was joking.
- I said go!
And the rest of you
could all quit laughing along.
That doesn't help.
You can't be in here.
I just need a minute.
- You need to leave.
- Just wait.
We really need to get this straight.
Go away, please, Xavier.
Lucas mentioned
he was kicked out of class.
I'm just asking you not to punish Lucas
for whatever you believe
happened last night.
Whatever I believe happened last night?
You really think I raped you?
I... I know what you did.
Laura, I apologize if things
went faster than you expected,
that makes sense, but you
honestly never told me you didn't want to.
- I told you. I told you no.
- You're the one who invited me in.
- I didn't want to.
- You told me...
You told me to open another bottle
and also you kissed me.
You kissed me.
Look, I apologize
if there was any misunderstanding.
Mis...
Misunderstanding?
- That might not be the best word. Okay.
- Get out.
- They took me to the police...
- Just get out of here!
- I told you to leave!
- Excuse me.
Get out!
Forgive me.
Get out!
- Hi.
- Hey.
Want a drink?
No thanks.
Don't look at me like that.
What do you mean?
Like that.
You're staring like I'm a...
Never mind.
He came to see me at school.
He wanted to clear the air, but suddenly...
Okay, wait, wait.
He came to see you at school?
He came when I was alone.
He walked into my class,
the man stood there
and stared me in the eyes.
And for just one second,
he was so convincing
that he almost made me doubt myself.
And if he makes me doubt myself...
- What's that mean for the police?
- No, no. Don't talk nonsense, Laura.
I'm not talking nonsense.
You told me a million times,
without proof, it's his word against mine.
And when they
investigate me and find out I...
- When they...
- When they...
When they investigate,
they will find evidence.
Have faith, please.
And if they don't?
Laura. Laura, please.
- I'm going home.
- Let me go with you.
I'm going home alone, thank you.
I want to. Laura!
Great.
Shit.
Hi, good morning.
Hello. We wanted to speak to Laura.
She told us this is where she was staying.
Sure. Come in.
Thank you.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Please, just have a seat. I'll go get her.
- How are you feeling?
- Are you going to arrest him?
Well, for the moment, we can't.
We have no evidence,
and he gave a very different
testimony about last night.
Of course. You were expecting what?
That he'd confess to it?
He admits you had sexual intercourse.
That wasn't what it was. I said, "No!"
Problem is that
there are no signs of physical violence.
And you didn't test positive for drugs.
That man forced it, even when I said no.
What more do you need?
What more do you need to believe it?
Should he have killed me?
It's not that we don't believe you.
We have witnesses from the restaurant
who said that you looked very comfortable.
So?
Even if I was,
it doesn't matter because I was raped.
I'm not imagining it.
It's as if you think I'm the guilty one.
Look, Laura, this will be
much more difficult in court.
So the more you remember, the better.
Please tell us again how it all happened.
I remember... his body on top of me.
And no matter what,
I couldn't get him off me.
I was completely frozen.
But my memory is foggy.
I don't know. It comes back in pieces.
You told us that you had wine.
How many glasses?
I don't believe this.
Listen. I know perfectly well
what it's like to be drunk
and that's not what this was.
I'm sorry.
I'm done talking about it.
We understand.
We'll be going.
We'll keep you informed
if there is any news.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
I'm here for Laura. Nothing more.
Should we be worried?
Listen to me. I know that Laura
needs you more than ever.
- Don't start, please.
- I love you, Cata.
- I know that you love me.
- Iván.
- I know that you love me.
- I didn't come here for us.
I'm sorry.
She's been at my house with me
after what happened and I...
doubted her.
Just for one second, I mean, but...
I doubted my sister.
- This is...
- It's okay.
It's okay.
Look into this, please. Will you?
Find out everything you can.
My colleagues know
more on this than I do. I don't...
But they don't care as much as you do.
Yeah, you're right.
I'll do my best.
For Laura.
And for us.
No, no, no, no.
It's over.
Don't make it more difficult, please.
While I was there,
blacked out in my own bed,
he was cold-blooded enough
to run my dishwasher
and destroy any proof.
I bet when I got back
from using the restroom,
I took his glass by accident.
That's why he didn't drink.
So he must've switched them back
when I went to get the photograph.
And we sat down on the couch,
and I noticed he was drinking
from my glass, but I didn't say anything.
That's why the tests were negative.
Because scopolamine disappears
out of the blood in less than 12 hours.
It makes total sense.
But I was so naive. It's embarrassing.
No, I mean...
nobody would imagine he was even
capable of something like what he did?
- We need to call the police again.
- No.
It's pointless without evidence.
Hi.
I'M FORCED TO WRITE THIS
BECAUSE I NEED JUSTICE TO BE DONE,
AND I WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW
WHO THIS MAN REALLY IS.
XAVIER...
Hello.
I just saw it.
- Please, take it down.
- No.
Are you aware of the consequences?
Yes, Cata,
but it's the only thing I could do.
I'm not going to sit back and do nothing
while he moves on with his life
and his only punishment is a little
embarrassing talk with the police?
Others need to know who Xavier really is.
I know what repercussions
I might be facing by doing this,
but it isn't just about me anymore,
it's about the next woman.
Maybe this way
it won't be so easy for him next time.
Until I posted this about Xavier,
not one of his work colleagues,
family, or friends knew this about him.
Now they all know.
How was it?
- I don't think I can live without this.
- Yeah.
- Today is the day, right?
- Yes.
- Are you okay?
- Yes.
I mean, I guess. Bit by bit, I suppose.
Yeah, well, you better go.
And if you need anything, let me know.
Thank you.
See you tomorrow.
- See you.
- See ya.
I thought you would've been gone by now.
I know. Sorry. I'll be out of here soon.
Hi, Laura.
- Hey, Nico. How you doing?
- I'm fine.
Good to see you.
You too.
Well, all yours.
Thank you.
I tried to talk to him out of it,
but he told me that
he has to stay with you. So here.
Maybe I can come visit him on weekends.
- You're an idiot.
- Hmm.
Keep in touch, okay?
All right.
I don't know, Dad.
I mean, I don't want to offend you, but...
I was kinda thinking more of a party,
with my friends, with girls.
You don't even want me
around to watch the game?
- That's not what I mean.
- I get it. It hurts, but I accept it.
- I can take it.
- Why don't you go out?
Without me. Alone.
When's the last time
you did something fun?
Mm-hmm.
"Mm-hmm," come on, Dad.
I think you need it.
Mm-hmm.
You're getting old.
I'm worried. Soon you'll be
throwing out your back, having sciatica...
Get out of my car.
Don't worry,
I'll hook you up with a sick nursing home.
- Get out.
- Love you.
Lucas...
You'll forget your head one day.
Have you got your keys?
Your little sayings
are getting old, you know.
- Get going.
- See you!
Some parents can be so annoying.
You're right.
I don't know where I get it from.
By the way, uh, the book is excellent.
Really? Where are you in it?
I will read it.
Up to you,
but Carpentier is one of the greats.
- How are you? Better?
- No.
- But I'll get there. Thanks.
- I'm sure you will.
- Good morning, Ms. Munar.
- Good morning, Amal.
So, I wanted to ask you...
It's probably a bit too soon,
but if you ever want to get
a drink sometime, I'd be delighted.
No expectations. Whatever you want.
- Yes. Yes, sure.
- Thank you.
Sure. I think it's a good idea.
Great.
Another day.
Okay.
Well, nobody's
telling you to get married.
All I'm saying is,
I don't know, you could have some fun.
You're too young,
my darling, so go for it!
Iván just moved out today.
- You see, it's time to move on.
- It was 13 years, Ricard.
My point exactly.
We'll see.
- I don't know what to do.
- Man, it's nothing.
Look, just take a hoodie and that's it.
- Yeah?
- Sure.
Look, there she is.
Go get her, man.
- Hello, my love.
- Hello.
- Any plans tonight?
- No, nothing.
- You might get bored later.
- Morning!
- Instead, watch a movie with Lucas Vera?
- Seats, please.
Oh, maybe.
But I'm choosing the film,
yours are so boring.
Lucas Vera.
Will you be teaching class this morning?
- I'm good.
- No?
- No, no.
- Not feeling inspired?
That's what I thought.
So, "The tulips are too excitable,
it is winter here."
I am assuming everyone here
has read the poem by Sylvia Plath,
the one I sent you yesterday.
Teach, you dropped your cell phone.
Where?
I promise you won't find it so funny
when you're failing my class.
Since you're so lively this morning,
Lucas, come on up.
- Nah, seriously?
- Seriously.
I want you to write down every
rhetorical device you see in that poem.
We haven't got all morning, Lucas.
Pfft.
Hmm.
Well...
this here, when you use a word
over and over, that's one, isn't it?
I don't know. You tell us.
Um...
Remember, tomorrow we're
looking at cursed poets. No excuses!
Amal, have a minute?
Yeah.
Is everything okay?
I'm fine. Yeah.
You didn't participate in class
at all today. Are you sure?
Well, no matter what,
I'm here if you need to talk.
I know. Thank you.
Xavier...
your patient is ready.
One minute.
Cata...
Yeah?
What's your sister's
favorite kind of food?
Huh?
Really?
You have to tell me everything.
Tell me!
You should have told him Italian.
And you
should've told me about the date.
Just relax. It'll be fun.
Cata, it's been half my life
since I dated anyone that wasn't Iván.
Exactly.
It's about time to move on.
- Just go have fun.
- Okay.
Hello.
- Hello.
- How are you?
- Fine. And you?
- Great.
Sorry I'm a little late.
Don't worry about it. I already ate.
All right.
- I'm having some wine. Want a glass?
- Yes, please.
- Have you ever been here?
- No.
It's beautiful.
How's it going?
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
You look happy.
You have fun last night?
Hmm?
"Hmm?"
Ah!
- What do you mean? You love it.
- Come on, let's go.
Laura! Hungover? What?
Let's talk later, okay?
Sure, tell me later.
THANKS FOR AN UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT
I DIDN'T WANT TO WAKE YOU
Come on, Mateo. Finish your juice.
- Are you all done?
- Yeah.
Okay, go get your backpack.
Hurry, we're gonna be late.
I'll get it!
Laura?
Come in.
Can you come out here a minute?
Your mind is somewhere else.
- I need a minute.
- So did you go back to her place or not?
I'm not telling you anything.
I'm a lawyer.
I won't stop until I know everything.
- I won't.
- Come on, Dr. Romance.
Was she any good?
Don't be crude, man. Okay? I like her.
I want to see her again.
- I'm not giving details.
- So, then you did.
Just please don't
tell me you messaged her?
- She read it, but didn't answer.
- Then forget about her.
You look weak. The ball's in her court.
Yeah.
Almost feel like I'm in high school.
- Ready now?
- Come on.
Whoa! What was that?
I'm sorry. My bad.
Then I let him into my place
because his ride wasn't there yet.
Everything was okay.
Had you been drinking?
Yes, a bit. I only had, um...
two or three glasses at dinner
and a few before that
while I was getting ready.
It wasn't the wine, Cata.
I remember it all perfectly.
We were making out a bit.
I was happy, and then...
and then I was...
I found myself on my own bed,
but on my back,
and he was on me.
- I think I told him to stop.
- You think?
I didn't want to sleep with him, Cata.
- But...
- I didn't want to.
Yes, but, did you...
say that? Or push him? Anything?
I swear that I did. It's just...
I'm not sure. It's almost like
it happened to... to another person.
I just want to make sure
I'm understanding right.
Are you telling me that...
that you think...
that Xavier raped you?
Come here.
It's okay.
Did you like the place?
It was nice, but...
you've been wanting
to take me out for a while
so I was expecting
something more, I guess.
Are you serious?
Of course.
No, you're not.
No.
Hello. I'm Cata.
I spoke to you on the phone.
Hello. And you're Laura, right?
Come with me.
SON AMER CLINIC
This is Cristina.
She's the duty forensic nurse,
and she is going to examine you.
All right?
Laura, we are going to need
your underwear, okay?
And your jeans and your sweater too.
Here.
Put this on.
Are you all right?
After the examination
and the toxicology report,
we will call the police.
You can file the report here
so you won't need to go to the station.
All right?
- Yeah.
- Don't worry.
Okay, let's start.
If your gown falls,
you can hold it to cover yourself.
Whatever makes you feel comfortable.
May I have your arm, please?
May I? This one.
That's it.
Very good.
There.
Oh, my God.
I need you to open your mouth.
Open.
That's it.
Open. Now tilt your head back.
There you go.
All done. That's it.
If Lucas saw us like this, he'd laugh.
- Lucas laughs at everything.
- Really?
Don't tell me, he's the class clown.
Well... this is it.
Thank you very much for dinner
and for walking me home.
No, thank you. You made my night.
I'm glad.
- I'll see you soon.
- Bye.
- Good night.
- Good night.
Oh!
- What's wrong?
- Nothing.
I was gonna call a taxi,
but my phone just died.
Just now, huh? Wow!
- That's one smart phone.
- No, no, no. Don't think that.
Look.
- We can call from mine.
- Thank you.
Hello, yes, good evening.
I would like to order a taxi.
Trafalgar 12.
- Thirty minutes?
- No, I'll just walk home.
Yes, that's perfect. Thank you.
See you soon. Thanks.
- Thank you. I'll just wait here.
- If you want to.
- Good night.
- Good night.
Or we can have some wine while we wait,
because you're
practically in my living room,
and it'd be kind of silly of me
to make you wait out here alone.
I think my front door's unlocked.
I'm ashamed at myself.
Laura, they're here now.
Are you ready?
Laura...
I'm Detective Daniela Bauzá
and this is my partner Víctor Silva.
We'd like you to tell us what happened.
Okay?
Shall we?
I'll be right here.
Blood pressure, 90/55.
Regular heartbeat.
Good.
Let's close him up.
- Excuse me.
- Yes?
Dr. Xavier Vera?
Yes, he's in an operation at the moment.
May we speak with him?
It's urgent.
Um, please wait here,
I'll get him for you.
Thank you.
Good job, everybody.
Thank you for
stepping in at the last minute.
- Any word from Cata?
- No.
Dr. Vera, there are two officers outside.
They're asking for you.
- Can you finish up here?
- Yes, of course.
It's the two people over there.
Thank you.
Mr. Vera?
Uh-huh.
I'm agent Daniela Bauzá,
we're with the Police Department.
- Is it my son?
- No, your son is fine. Don't worry.
We're here because
there's been an accusation
made against you for sexual assault.
What?
You have the right to remain silent
and the right to an attorney,
but your silence could be detrimental
to your appearance before a court.
Do you understand?
Yes, but still, I'm not going anywhere.
You got the wrong guy.
You can come freely
or under arrest. It's your call.
I might need a minute.
- That's fine. We'll wait.
- Thank you.
I hate hospitals.
Mom would know what to say.
There is nothing to say.
Hello?
- Hello!
- Mom!
- Hey! Look who's here.
- Mom!
Look at these costumes. You look amazing.
How's it going?
Not well, to be honest.
Well, your aunt's gonna stay here
with us until she gets better. Hmm?
I'm going to lie down.
You're both irresistible.
I'm warning you,
if my sister ends up knowing about this,
I'll kill you. Unless she kills you first.
- I won't say a word.
- You'd better not.
Can I open this one?
I don't know. Can you?
I'm sorry!
I'm sorry. Are you okay?
I just came to ask for your keys
because I want
to get some things of yours.
It won't take long.
POLICE LINE
DO NOT CROSS
Excuse me, miss,
you can't be in here.
This is actually my sister's house.
I wanted to get her some things.
No, I'm sorry.
You'll have to wait until we're finished.
Oh.
FORENSIC POLICE
- Well, should I just wait outside?
- Yes. I'll let you know when we're done.
You have to stop calling me.
No.
No, I'm busy at the moment. It's just...
I don't know when, okay?
Let it go. Please, no more.
Please. I'm begging you.
The taxi was
taking a long time to get there.
I was hoping that I could charge my phone.
I'm a doctor. I have a son.
So you gave her your phone
because it was dead?
No.
She told me that
she had a charger in her bedroom.
So I went with her.
Then we both kissed.
- You mean you made a move?
- No. She kissed me.
I'm sure she did.
What happened after the kiss, Mr. Vera?
This is ridiculous.
I'm not discussing that.
- She's saying that you raped her.
- No, that's not true.
I didn't. We both got on the bed.
And...
Do I seriously have to go into detail?
I know it's embarrassing,
but you have nothing to hide.
So don't worry.
When you laid down, were you on top?
- Yes.
- Did you push her onto the bed?
No, I didn't push her.
No, she...
We were holding each other.
Did she ever say stop?
No, never. I took off her clothes.
She...
she even took mine off.
We didn't say anything.
We were both being... you know.
No, we don't know.
If I had known...
If I'd actually believed
she didn't want to sleep with me
then we wouldn't have done it.
Why did she make up this whole lie?
I don't get it. It was all going great.
I mean, I thought it was
the beginning of something for us.
It was nice. I texted her.
Yes.
"Thank you for
an unforgettable night." We read it.
Right. So...
You believe me, right?
You can both go for now.
Thank you very much. Have a good day.
You're free to go.
They're opening an investigation,
but they've got nothing at the moment.
At the moment?
There's nothing else to find. I mean it.
No need to convince me.
Now, just relax. Get some rest.
Tomorrow morning we'll talk more.
But everything's okay.
Don't worry.
All right, who took my keys?
- I have an operation in an hour.
- Look in the fridge!
Yes, in the bowl.
Come on,
eat your breakfast or you'll be late.
Are you gonna tell me
what's going on with Laura?
But I already told you.
She fell apart.
She doesn't want to be alone, misses Iván.
Come on, Cata.
It happened last night.
But don't...
Just please tell her I told you, okay?
Come on.
Cata, it's been half my life
since I dated anyone that wasn't Iván.
Exactly.
And it's about time to move on.
Just go and have fun.
Dad! Hurry up,
I'm going to be late!
Hold on.
I can't believe it.
Xavier?
Mm.
Do the police know about the other time?
Why would they need to know, Sergio?
Why would you say that to me?
Forget it. I don't know.
I'm just worried about her, that's all.
Good morning. I'm leaving for school.
- Make you something before you go?
- You can't be seriously going into work.
I'm not hungry, but thanks.
- This is not a good idea, Laura.
- I need a distraction.
Goodbye, kids!
Bye, Laura!
Let's go!
Sorry, I had to work late last night.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
I should have told you
before going into surgery.
I'm used to it. Don't worry.
Hey, is that a complaint?
No, just being honest.
Come on. Let's go.
Coming.
- Geez, Dad. You doing okay?
- Yes. Why?
- I don't know. You didn't have any coffee.
- Don't be a pain. Get going.
Good morning! Get to your seats, please!
Sit down everybody. Now.
Thank you.
I don't know what I'm doing here,
trying to teach literature
to a bunch of chimpanzees.
Well, maybe if you were
on time we'd be calmer.
All right, just stop, Lucas!
I am sick of your lack of respect.
Stand up, please
and go to the principal's office, now.
Wait, what?
I said stand up and go
to the principal's office right now.
- I was joking.
- I said go!
And the rest of you
could all quit laughing along.
That doesn't help.
You can't be in here.
I just need a minute.
- You need to leave.
- Just wait.
We really need to get this straight.
Go away, please, Xavier.
Lucas mentioned
he was kicked out of class.
I'm just asking you not to punish Lucas
for whatever you believe
happened last night.
Whatever I believe happened last night?
You really think I raped you?
I... I know what you did.
Laura, I apologize if things
went faster than you expected,
that makes sense, but you
honestly never told me you didn't want to.
- I told you. I told you no.
- You're the one who invited me in.
- I didn't want to.
- You told me...
You told me to open another bottle
and also you kissed me.
You kissed me.
Look, I apologize
if there was any misunderstanding.
Mis...
Misunderstanding?
- That might not be the best word. Okay.
- Get out.
- They took me to the police...
- Just get out of here!
- I told you to leave!
- Excuse me.
Get out!
Forgive me.
Get out!
- Hi.
- Hey.
Want a drink?
No thanks.
Don't look at me like that.
What do you mean?
Like that.
You're staring like I'm a...
Never mind.
He came to see me at school.
He wanted to clear the air, but suddenly...
Okay, wait, wait.
He came to see you at school?
He came when I was alone.
He walked into my class,
the man stood there
and stared me in the eyes.
And for just one second,
he was so convincing
that he almost made me doubt myself.
And if he makes me doubt myself...
- What's that mean for the police?
- No, no. Don't talk nonsense, Laura.
I'm not talking nonsense.
You told me a million times,
without proof, it's his word against mine.
And when they
investigate me and find out I...
- When they...
- When they...
When they investigate,
they will find evidence.
Have faith, please.
And if they don't?
Laura. Laura, please.
- I'm going home.
- Let me go with you.
I'm going home alone, thank you.
I want to. Laura!
Great.
Shit.
Hi, good morning.
Hello. We wanted to speak to Laura.
She told us this is where she was staying.
Sure. Come in.
Thank you.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Please, just have a seat. I'll go get her.
- How are you feeling?
- Are you going to arrest him?
Well, for the moment, we can't.
We have no evidence,
and he gave a very different
testimony about last night.
Of course. You were expecting what?
That he'd confess to it?
He admits you had sexual intercourse.
That wasn't what it was. I said, "No!"
Problem is that
there are no signs of physical violence.
And you didn't test positive for drugs.
That man forced it, even when I said no.
What more do you need?
What more do you need to believe it?
Should he have killed me?
It's not that we don't believe you.
We have witnesses from the restaurant
who said that you looked very comfortable.
So?
Even if I was,
it doesn't matter because I was raped.
I'm not imagining it.
It's as if you think I'm the guilty one.
Look, Laura, this will be
much more difficult in court.
So the more you remember, the better.
Please tell us again how it all happened.
I remember... his body on top of me.
And no matter what,
I couldn't get him off me.
I was completely frozen.
But my memory is foggy.
I don't know. It comes back in pieces.
You told us that you had wine.
How many glasses?
I don't believe this.
Listen. I know perfectly well
what it's like to be drunk
and that's not what this was.
I'm sorry.
I'm done talking about it.
We understand.
We'll be going.
We'll keep you informed
if there is any news.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
I'm here for Laura. Nothing more.
Should we be worried?
Listen to me. I know that Laura
needs you more than ever.
- Don't start, please.
- I love you, Cata.
- I know that you love me.
- Iván.
- I know that you love me.
- I didn't come here for us.
I'm sorry.
She's been at my house with me
after what happened and I...
doubted her.
Just for one second, I mean, but...
I doubted my sister.
- This is...
- It's okay.
It's okay.
Look into this, please. Will you?
Find out everything you can.
My colleagues know
more on this than I do. I don't...
But they don't care as much as you do.
Yeah, you're right.
I'll do my best.
For Laura.
And for us.
No, no, no, no.
It's over.
Don't make it more difficult, please.
While I was there,
blacked out in my own bed,
he was cold-blooded enough
to run my dishwasher
and destroy any proof.
I bet when I got back
from using the restroom,
I took his glass by accident.
That's why he didn't drink.
So he must've switched them back
when I went to get the photograph.
And we sat down on the couch,
and I noticed he was drinking
from my glass, but I didn't say anything.
That's why the tests were negative.
Because scopolamine disappears
out of the blood in less than 12 hours.
It makes total sense.
But I was so naive. It's embarrassing.
No, I mean...
nobody would imagine he was even
capable of something like what he did?
- We need to call the police again.
- No.
It's pointless without evidence.
Hi.
I'M FORCED TO WRITE THIS
BECAUSE I NEED JUSTICE TO BE DONE,
AND I WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW
WHO THIS MAN REALLY IS.
XAVIER...
Hello.
I just saw it.
- Please, take it down.
- No.
Are you aware of the consequences?
Yes, Cata,
but it's the only thing I could do.
I'm not going to sit back and do nothing
while he moves on with his life
and his only punishment is a little
embarrassing talk with the police?
Others need to know who Xavier really is.
I know what repercussions
I might be facing by doing this,
but it isn't just about me anymore,
it's about the next woman.
Maybe this way
it won't be so easy for him next time.
Until I posted this about Xavier,
not one of his work colleagues,
family, or friends knew this about him.
Now they all know.
