The Queen of Flow (2018–2021): Season 1, Episode 15 - Episode #1.15 - full transcript
A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
This is a work of fiction.
All characters, stories, and events in it
are products of the author's imagination.
Any resemblance to real persons, events
or businesses is purely coincidental.
Rizzo, the vehicle is entering
the commune. I await instructions.
Send coordinates for the location
and watch the area.
Inform us of any suspicious movement.
We are on our way with backup
to cordon off the area
and initiate capture.
Copy that.
Good afternoon. How did it go? Well?
-So, Charly? How are you?
-All good?
-Good.
-What's new, dude?
Everything OK? Fine, then.
Rizzo, the vehicle is entering
an auto repair shop in San Félix.
I await instructions.
Manín must be there.
-Hi, Uncle, what's up?
-What's up, Charly?
-How are you doing, buddy?
-Not good.
Tell me what I can do for you.
I have a million things to do.
You're always in a hurry.
I don't give a shit about your schedule.
This matters more
than your little songs.
I'll take as long as I need to.
As usual.
What do you want?
We need to launder at your concerts,
as I told you.
Now?
Son, I have tons
of money I need to move.
No time to waste.
I need this yesterday.
I'll get some water.
Know what? Let's do it with Cris Vega,
the new talent at the studio, OK?
Yes!
Pour a couple of drinks to celebrate.
No, remember I have a lot to do.
I have the press breathing down my neck
and problems at the studio.
Lucio told me. He showed me the video
of that girl you banged.
-Exactly.
-Like she wanted it, right?
Come, have a drink with me.
Sorrows are not for warriors.
To you, my nephew!
Who turned out to be braver
and vainer than the uncle. Cheers.
Cheers.
All units, close perimeter
and don't raise suspicion.
-Hey, what's the matter?
-What?
You seem distracted.
Everything OK?
Sure, play the track.
No, wait.
I'll be right back, OK?
Cauchola.
Do you know whose truck is parked
on the corner near the shop?
Negative, boss.
This is not OK.
Nobody should be parked here.
Run the plate numbers.
Day, airplane, yucca, seven, one, five.
I'll do it right away.
Everybody on your guard.
-Here, boss.
-What is it, Lucio?
Falcioni, go out to the street.
Check for any strange movement, OK?
-Sure, let's go.
-What happened, Lucio?
Come, man, let's go.
-What is it?
-All good, Carrancho doesn't know.
That man changed the license plates
and said he was coming here.
Carrancho doesn't know anything?
I don't buy it. Follow him.
-Yes, sir.
-Hey, it's mine...
Let me see, who is it? Is it your girl?
Leave it, man.
Relax, it's this girl I'm crazy about.
It's all good.
Something's not right here.
-What's up, princess?
-Hi, Charly.
I was just calling to tell you
we are working on the changes you wanted.
Will you be long?
I still have a lot to do,
but, you know what?
I want you to take care of that.
I want the full treatment
for Cris Vega's launch.
A concert, the works.
I'm here working on it.
OK, just come back soon,
I don't like staying up late.
Not even with me?
I would love to spend the night...
-We've been busted, sir!
-What was that?
-Here.
-Charly!
Take cover!
Charly, arm yourself, now!
Charly, hello!
What's going on?
Clear out!
Charly, what's going on?
Answer me, hello?
Charly!
Answer me, hello!
Hello!
Charly.
Hey!
-Hands up!
-Don't move!
Hands up!
Nobody move!
National police!
They ran out this way!
-This way!
-Coming, Rizzo!
Cover me, Rizzo!
These guys are well armed!
Be careful!
Pérez, take six men to the left front!
-The rest, come with me.
-Go, go, go!
Turn off that fucking phone!
Lift the ladder!
Your call is being transferred
to voicemail.
What is it? Come in.
Did something happen?
You have a face...
No, I'm trying to call Charly,
but something's wrong with the signal.
Good thing you can't get through.
You can do that later.
Why? What happened?
I just think I found a good solution
to please Charly
without sacrificing quality, so...
I want you to listen
and tell me what you think.
-Sure, let's go.
-Yeah? OK, then.
Careful.
Look for possible exits.
-Listen.
-Gorgeous lady
I feel your eyes are deceiving me
I don't know what you're up to
But I'll take a chance for you
Listen, gorgeous lady
I feel your eyes are deceiving me
I don't know what you're up to
Run! This way, boss!
Get down!
Manín's getting away!
Let's go, Charly!
-My cell phone!
-Fuck your cell phone!
Get the cell phone!
-You got hit, moron!
-Son of a bitch!
Let's go!
Let's go!
-All clear?
-Yes, clear!
Mr. Manín, this way, come on!
She won't be able to stop
Her madness I will unravel
So?
Sounds good.
No, where's your enthusiasm,
Tammy?
What? No, just play the track again.
Go ahead, play it.
OK, I'll fix some things,
and open a channel just for the chorus.
Maybe that will draw you in,
because...
What is it? What's the matter?
-What is it?
-Nothing, play the track.
-You're somewhere else.
-No, I'm not,
this is my focused face.
Play it, please, I'm here.
It's good.
Check the area!
They went that way.
Shit, Rizzo,
there's nothing here, man!
Reinforce the block from behind,
reinforce the block from behind.
Stop!
Damn it, they got away!
We need backup!
Backup!
Backup! Let's go, quick!
Move it!
Don't lose them, bro!
Yes, sir, sure.
What's up, old man?
Are you gonna run us over or what?
You are not leaving this place.
They are going towards Aranjuez.
Go get them.
I want Manín alive.
I repeat, I want him alive.
Stop, please!
Get out.
Get out, now!
What's the matter?
Son of a bitch, it's empty!
Captain, the vehicle's trunk is empty.
Easy, easy!
What is it, Charly?
Come on!
-Let's go, my boy!
-Go easy!
Come on!
Easy.
Easy.
It hurts!
Don't worry, I told you
it's just a scratch, man.
Think of the story
you'll tell your grandkids.
Easy!
Here, buddy. Drink.
The bullet's still inside.
Bring coffee.
We have to stop this bleeding.
Clench your teeth.
Go easy.
Don't move, Charly,
it's better if you don't move.
-Stop!
-Be still!
Here, drink.
OK, it took a bit more time,
but there you have it.
Do we change anything else?
No, I think it's perfect.
RIZZO:
YOUR HOUSE IN ONE HOUR
What is it?
Did Charly text you?
No, but it's better
if we stop now, OK?
I'm exhausted.
Juancho, good job.
See you tomorrow.
I'll tell Charly
so we can show him the material.
-OK? Bye.
-Bye.
Princess, how was school today?
Fine, normal.
What do you mean by normal?
What's new?
Princess, you haven't called me all day.
If I don't call you, you don't call me.
Mom, I forgot.
Forgive me?
And your father?
Have you heard from him?
No, no idea.
What's Charly up to?
Attention, a few hours ago
the police conducted an operation
to apprehend Duver Cruz,
aka Manín.
There was a clash which ended in gunfire
in Candelaria,
Northeastern Commune Ten,
when the boss and his men
resisted arrest.
There are several casualties,
but the bodies are not identified yet.
The whereabouts of the boss,
who fled during the shoot-out,
is still unknown.
He is assumed to be hiding
in one of the 15 communes
which make up the Northeastern block
of Medellín.
Mom, are you calling Grandma?
Yes, but she's not answering.
Your call is being transferred
to voicemail.
-Your call is being...
-She is not answering.
You lost him?
How could he escape?
Didn't you have him surrounded?
Manín was ready to leave
at a moment's notice.
He escaped with four of his men
and Charly, who's wounded.
Charly is wounded?
This is a disaster!
You don't know where he is?
Still in the communes,
but that area is too vast.
Besides, the people there
are protecting him.
Yeah, but you are the police, right?
If he's hiding like a rat,
flush him out.
It's not as simple as you think.
I was looking forward
to that murderer being caught.
And now you have no idea
where he is?
All this effort,
all the risks, for nothing.
I'm still your prisoner
until you find him.
Would you rather be a prisoner
in New Jersey?
Honestly, neither.
Yeimy...
You've done a great job.
But you have to understand
that surveillance and infiltration work
is mostly about patience and time.
Rizzo.
I've waited for 17 years for Charly
and his uncle to pay. I know patience.
We cordoned off the perimeter
where we think they may be.
We need to wait for him to move
to detect him.
We're gonna catch him.
I was on the phone with Charly
when you got there.
If I call and he answers,
you can trace the call, right?
Do it.
Your call is being transferred
to voicemail.
Your call is being transferred
to voicemail.
What now?
We know that so far, Charly
hasn't returned home or to the studio.
Do you plan to arrest him?
No...
No.
It's better if he thinks
we didn't see him in the commune.
For him to be free
so that he contacts Manín again.
If the bullet you put in him
doesn't kill him first.
We need to wait and see
what happens with that.
For now, the area is under surveillance
and Manín won't get away.
Here.
It hurts.
It hurts.
I'm thirsty.
-I'm thirsty.
-Here, kid.
Boss, he's burning up.
We must do something,
or he'll die.
Then tough shit.
'Cause you know what?
Boss, we're still surrounded by the cops.
Then there's no way to get him out.
Don't worry, Charly.
Uncle, call my wife.
Call my daughter!
Bring them to me, Uncle.
The pain is getting bad.
Don't worry,
I'm taking care of things!
Breathe.
Try to drink some water.
Find a way to bring him a doctor.
There's cops all over the place!
Figure it out!
Find a way!
Yes, sir.
My nephew will not die here!
Lucio, call Carrancho.
We haven't heard from Carrancho, sir.
Don't you see he's out of the picture?
Locate him.
He must be hiding.
Tell him to bring a doctor.
Yes, sir.
Why are you laying there?
Buddy, leave me alone.
I'm composing.
You didn't hear all that gunfire
in the commune?
Sure, you're plugged in all day long.
How could you?
What happened?
This place is crawling
with cops, man.
It's an operation to catch your dad.
And did they?
No, he's hiding.
What are you doing?
Buddy, I'm leaving.
Where to?
Didn't you hear
there are cops all over the place?
So? I haven't done anything.
He's the one they're after.
And where will you go?
To my mother's.
She must be really worried.
See you.
But how?
What happened to him? Where is he?
From what I heard on the radio,
he managed to escape.
That's all I know.
Where can he be?
What is he doing?
Ma, don't worry,
Dad has a strategic mind.
I'm sure he was prepared.
Although...
Although what?
Although what?
Ma...
Wouldn't you like him to be caught
and be done with all the suffering?
That's the life your dad chose...
and yes, it affects us, but...
he wouldn't do well
being confined.
Confined?
Isn't he confined to the communes?
Running from the police
like a rat?
From hideout to hideout?
This is tasty.
Be still.
It hurts.
Is that an anesthetic?
No, antibiotics, man.
Ready, let's extract the bullet.
Be very still.
-Go easy!
-Here, this is the best anesthetic.
-Wait.
-Hang in there, boy.
That's it.
-Hang on.
-Gently.
Drink up.
That's it.
Stop.
Hold on, man.
-Stay calm.
-Don't move, help us out.
Gently.
It's out.
Keep giving him the antibiotics.
And the wound?
It must be kept clean.
Wash it with this,
and change the dressings
every two or three hours, OK?
Keep an eye on him.
If his temperature goes up,
take him to the hospital.
It won't be necessary.
My nephew is strong like me.
For your troubles.
And you know, right?
Keep your mouth shut,
and you won't have any problems.
No, Rizzo confirmed
he didn't go back to his house.
What if he's dead?
No.
No, Jack, for that bastard,
dying is the easiest way out, no.
While we wait for him,
what I should do is destabilize Gema.
That's what I should do.
You know what?
Tell the media Charly Flow is missing.
-That it's been 24 hours...
-Hey, wait a moment.
Slow down.
Now you are giving me orders?
Oh, Jack,
I'm just asking for a favor.
The police has cordoned off
the neighborhood.
If Charly is with his uncle,
he can't get out.
I'm just asking you to say
he's been missing for 24 hours.
I understand your anger.
I swear I do.
But it seems to me
you are not looking for justice.
This looks like something else.
It seems to me you're after revenge.
Don't you even care
if he's dead or alive?
Did he mind leaving me to rot in jail?
Or that his uncle sent people
to kill me?
I didn't know you were on his side.
I thought you understood me.
All I understand is you're blinded.
And you are mistaken.
How could I be on that guy's side?
I don't even care about him.
What I can see
is that in your quest for revenge,
you will hurt
all the innocent people in your way
who haven't done anything to you.
Like the daughter, for instance.
Or haven't you thought what she'll feel
when she hears her father is dead?
If that is the case.
Calm down, I'll find a journalist
to help me with the news.
Don't worry.
Juancho.
It's your opportunity to return to music.
I know you miss it.
You're not just a businessman.
You are an artist.
How do you know that?
We don't know each other.
Let's have a drink here.
Then you choose where we eat, OK?
Sure, lead the way.
The girlfriend should choose, right?
I mean, you are from Medellín.
You know it better than me, right?
What were you thinking of?
You looked distracted.
Oh, no...
Just thinking about how I left the studio.
Why talk about that?
We don't like to discuss those things.
Juancho, no...
I don't mind you doing what you love.
But I don't want you to...
to leave me out, to neglect me.
Oh, my lady...
That's never gonna happen,
you hear me?
Never.
What do you know about Tammy?
What's up
with that question?
It's a normal question, isn't it?
Isn't it good to know about her
now that you are working together
at Charly's studios,
the ones you set up?
Well, actually, I don't know that much.
She...
She was born in...
She was born here, and then went
to Puerto Rico, and there...
she became a great music producer,
not to say the best, and that's it.
That's all I care about. Why?
-Don't know. Doesn't she remind you...?
-Good morning.
-Linis, how are you?
-Marcos, do you want breakfast?
Good. So nice to see you.
I left you some arepas.
They're warming up, don't let them burn.
So thoughtful, Cata.
Thanks.
So, what about you?
Ready to be man and wife?
Actually, yes.
What were you saying about Tammy?
That I don't know why,
but she seems familiar.
I don't understand.
Familiar how?
As if I knew her from before.
I don't know.
Ignore me.
I'm just thinking nonsense.
The police are laying siege to two
of Medellín's northeastern communes,
to capture drug trafficker
Duver Cruz, aka Manín.
The operation, launched this morning,
is of an unprecedented scale.
In international news,
our special correspondent in New York,
María Giménez, has more information...
FEBRUARY 20, 2002
HAPPY BRIDE AND GROOM
FEBRUARY 14, 2002
MY FIRST MONTH
TODAY YOU CAME INTO OUR LIVES
TO GIVE US LOVE AND JOY
-And that mess?
-I was looking at old pictures.
But I will tidy it all up.
Why didn't you
ever show me all this?
There's lots of stuff I have never seen.
Did you see on the news that Dad
is still in hiding?
They haven't caught him.
The Lord be praised.
Confirmed.
The police are working with the DEA.
I thought as much, boss.
Damn dogs!
They only want to take you to the U.S.
Let them keep trying.
They won't succeed.
Boss, do you want me
to call Lieutenant Brito?
He's the one who confirmed it.
Charly, boy.
Hi, Gema. How are you?
Good.
What do you need?
To talk to Charly.
It's about Cris Vega's album.
No, Charly is...
He's busy.
Oh, don't worry.
I'll wait for him.
I just need him
to go over this material
-to make decisions. Juancho...
-You know what? My...
My husband
didn't feel well this morning.
-He's unwell...
-Mom!
Mom, it's Dad!
Come quickly!
-Your dad?
-No, Mom, on TV.
After being at the center
of a recent scandal,
Charly Flow is headline news again.
This time, not for his excesses,
but because
he is reportedly missing.
We've tried to get in touch
with the singer or his manager,
his wife, Gema Cruz.
How did this get leaked so fast?
What?
Mom, you knew Dad was missing
and didn't tell me?
-Princess, no...
-No, don't say another word.
In this house, either they lie to me,
or they don't tell me a thing.
Princess, wait. Vane!
I'm talking to you.
Vanesa, open up.
Open, and I'll tell you why
that reporter said that, sweetie.
-Vanesa...
-I don't wanna talk to you!
Vanesa, please, don't be so dramatic,
for God's sake.
Gema, what is this about Charly
being missing?
I really have no idea
why that reporter said that.
Well, you know the business.
It feeds off rumors.
But this seems to be true.
You look worried.
The thing is...
Charly isn't picking up the phone,
he hasn't come home,
and you know how that girl gets.
And I haven't slept a wink.
Gema, it's normal.
She's worried about her dad.
What is normal is for Charly to do that.
He must be with friends.
He's a musician after all, right?
Partying.
-He must be partying.
-I don't think so.
I mean... He hasn't called or shown up
in a long time...
Well, yes.
That's true.
It's not the first time
Charly's pulled one of these stunts.
And you see how she gets,
and I'm here,
trying to hold the fort.
OK, calm down.
Do you want me to talk to her?
To help you with Vanesa?
Like I did the other night.
She's a mature girl.
She's sensitive.
She'll calm down if I talk to her.
It's normal for this to affect her.
What makes you think my daughter
would talk to you and not to me?
That I can tell her
something about her dad.
-What?
-I saw Charly yesterday at the studio.
Yesterday morning.
You know something about my dad?
Yes, honey, I saw him yesterday,
and he was fine.
Don't cry.
This is not a big deal.
-See, princess? It's no big deal...
-No, I'll talk to Tammy.
-Now, what do you know about Dad?
-Look, honey, what I told you.
I saw him at Excelsior yesterday.
He was fine.
Calm down.
Why are you so upset?
Tammy, I don't know if my dad is OK,
or if something's happened to him.
I call him and he doesn't answer.
His battery may be dead,
right?
Come on,
do it for your mom.
She's worried.
She's nervous.
She needs you now.
My mom thinks I'm a little girl,
a silly girl
who can't be told anything.
Well, she probably didn't tell you,
so you wouldn't worry.
Your mom will do anything
for her family.
Even neglect herself
to put others first.
Do you think that's fair?
No, honey, calm down.
OK?
I know I'm like that, but...
Tammy, you have to understand.
I haven't heard from my dad,
and if anything happens to him,
I don't know what I'd do.
He is my life, you see?
Come here.
There, calm down.
-Hello?
-Babe.
Charly!
Charly, where are you?
Why didn't you call?
I'm OK.
That's what matters.
Where are you? Huh?
Babe, I can't talk.
I just want you and Vanesa
to know I'm fine.
Nothing happened to me.
OK?
The press is saying you are missing
and Vanesa saw it.
She's upset.
And I didn't sleep all night, Charly.
Babe, I was partying.
That's all.
Charly, for once in your life,
tell me the truth.
Trust me, for once in your life.
I know they found your uncle's
hideout. Are you with him?
Yes, I'm with him.
I got hit
during the gunfight.
-What?
-That's why I can't leave here.
-Where did...?
-I can't move.
-Where did they get you, Charly?
-Obviously, I can't show up there.
Charly, are you in the hospital?
Tell me you are at the clinic.
Can't be done, babe.
But I'm fine. That's what matters.
Hey, Charly.
What do you want me to do, Charly?
Tell me.
Tell me what to do.
How can I help?
How can I help you?
I don't know. Think of something,
because I can't right now.
-You come up with something.
-Charly, what do I tell our girl?
What do I tell the media?
What do I tell everybody?
Tell me, help me.
Yeah, wait.
Babe, I love you.
Give Vanesa a kiss from me.
Hello?
Charly?
This number...
Better?
Yeah, Tammy, thanks.
You have helped me twice.
It's not that hard.
You're pretty great.
You know what?
I like it that you're friends
with my dad.
I like you.
Too bad my mom's awful to you.
No, not awful.
She's wary.
Honey...
You know you can tell me anything,
right?
And I won't say a word
if you don't want me to.
Is there anything else
bothering you?
Oh, Tammy, it's...
I've been very bad lately.
I've done things...
Never mind, forget it.
Things?
What things, Vane?
Well, I didn't treat my dad well
with that journalist business.
-That video. And I was really harsh.
-That?
That's nothing, honey.
When your dad comes back,
because he will,
you'll say you're sorry, that you
didn't mean to talk to him like that...
And he'll forgive you.
I swear.
-Really?
-Of course. Come here.
-Sweet.
-Thanks, Tammy.
She's calmer now,
if you want to talk to her.
Of course.
I will, when I think it's right.
Of course. Um...
I'll leave you now.
Gema, really. I hope everything is fine.
And that Charly appears soon.
Bye.
Wait.
Thank you.
For talking to her,
and for bringing her the other day.
I didn't say it before.
No, you don't need to thank me, Gema.
It's my pleasure.
What I do for your family,
I do it with pleasure.
And count on me
for whatever you need, OK?
I'm here.
I mean it.
Charly called.
Now?
What did he say?
Where is he?
What I told you.
He had gone partying.
And he didn't want Vanesa
to see him in that state, so...
That's why he hadn't come.
In what state? Why?
Did anything happen to him?
OK. Fine.
It's personal, I'll stay out of it,
but, Gema...
The media will start asking questions.
Is Charly on his way home, at least?
No, he isn't.
OK...
So, how about we plan
what to say to the media?
So they leave you alone
for a while, huh?
And what could we tell them?
The last thing Charly said
in the interview.
That he's in a rehab clinic,
doing it for his family.
And for the fans.
-For the fans, of course.
-OK.
So that's the plan, right?
I'll coordinate and we'll talk, yeah?
Stay calm.
Stay calm.
It will be OK.
Charly isn't missing.
He's at an exclusive rehab clinic
to fulfill the promises
he made to his fans...
and his family.
Tell us, Gema, as Charly Flow's wife
and manager,
why did you decide
to make this public statement?
Because of all the speculation.
Honestly,
this was harming my family.
Especially my daughter.
So I am asking for this to stop.
I am telling you the truth.
This is very difficult.
This situation...
is very delicate.
It's a human being trying...
to fight his demons
to become again...
the idol
everybody expects him to be.
So I ask all of you
to help Charly.
I ask for your respect.
And above all, your solidarity.
I finally got Gema
to let her guard down with me.
My most important discovery
is that Vanesa has a secret.
What secret?
-Do you really want to know?
-Look, don't give me that.
You know perfectly well I don't judge you
and I want the best for you.
If you want what's best for me,
understand
that Charly must pay
for what he did to me.
My grandma and son died
because I wasn't with them.
That was an accident.
A terrible accident, yes.
Unfair as well.
But life is like that,
and those things happen.
It was no accident, Jack!
It was no accident. It was a consequence
of what Charly did to me,
of the drugs he planted on me,
for which I got 17 years in jail.
Seventeen!
And I was innocent.
I couldn't be with my son.
I couldn't raise him.
I couldn't be with him.
I lost everything because of him.
And he will lose everything
because of me.
OK?
I know...
I know what that guy did to you.
Look.
Forgive me, I...
I didn't mean to make you feel bad.
I'm sorry.
Tell me.
Vanesa has a secret.
And she doesn't
get along with her mom.
Charly is her favorite, so to speak.
All I ask
is that you don't hurt that girl
while you settle the score
with Charly Flow, OK?
I want you to consider that.
Jack, obviously,
I'm not going to mess with the child.
-OK.
-Gema is different.
What do you mean?
It's clear Charly's infidelities
don't hurt that marriage.
But if it were
the other way around?
OK.
Looking good, Charly.
You look better.
-It still hurts when I move.
-Don't move, then.
You hear me?
I was talking to my contact
within the police.
Those gringo pigs
are in love with me.
Word is they turned Medellín
upside down hunting for me.
No way.
That's just wrong.
Wrong?
Worse than wrong.
Things are worse than I thought.
And it has to do
with you, Charly.
With me?
Why with me?
I've been thinking, Charly.
And I'm sure
you are being followed, bro.
That's how they found me.
Following me?
I don't think so.
Besides, how would they know
we were gonna meet?
Either...
they are tailing you all the time...
or they are listening
to our conversations.
The last time we talked,
I was at the office.
What?
Call Gema back.
Tell her to close the office
and not let anybody in.
When you get better, go and search it.
I'm sure there is something there.

Rizzo, the vehicle is entering
the commune. I await instructions.
Send coordinates for the location
and watch the area.
Inform us of any suspicious movement.
We are on our way with backup
to cordon off the area
and initiate capture.
Copy that.
Good afternoon. How did it go? Well?
-So, Charly? How are you?
-All good?
-Good.
-What's new, dude?
Everything OK? Fine, then.
Rizzo, the vehicle is entering
an auto repair shop in San Félix.
I await instructions.
Manín must be there.
-Hi, Uncle, what's up?
-What's up, Charly?
-How are you doing, buddy?
-Not good.
Tell me what I can do for you.
I have a million things to do.
You're always in a hurry.
I don't give a shit about your schedule.
This matters more
than your little songs.
I'll take as long as I need to.
As usual.
What do you want?
We need to launder at your concerts,
as I told you.
Now?
Son, I have tons
of money I need to move.
No time to waste.
I need this yesterday.
I'll get some water.
Know what? Let's do it with Cris Vega,
the new talent at the studio, OK?
Yes!
Pour a couple of drinks to celebrate.
No, remember I have a lot to do.
I have the press breathing down my neck
and problems at the studio.
Lucio told me. He showed me the video
of that girl you banged.
-Exactly.
-Like she wanted it, right?
Come, have a drink with me.
Sorrows are not for warriors.
To you, my nephew!
Who turned out to be braver
and vainer than the uncle. Cheers.
Cheers.
All units, close perimeter
and don't raise suspicion.
-Hey, what's the matter?
-What?
You seem distracted.
Everything OK?
Sure, play the track.
No, wait.
I'll be right back, OK?
Cauchola.
Do you know whose truck is parked
on the corner near the shop?
Negative, boss.
This is not OK.
Nobody should be parked here.
Run the plate numbers.
Day, airplane, yucca, seven, one, five.
I'll do it right away.
Everybody on your guard.
-Here, boss.
-What is it, Lucio?
Falcioni, go out to the street.
Check for any strange movement, OK?
-Sure, let's go.
-What happened, Lucio?
Come, man, let's go.
-What is it?
-All good, Carrancho doesn't know.
That man changed the license plates
and said he was coming here.
Carrancho doesn't know anything?
I don't buy it. Follow him.
-Yes, sir.
-Hey, it's mine...
Let me see, who is it? Is it your girl?
Leave it, man.
Relax, it's this girl I'm crazy about.
It's all good.
Something's not right here.
-What's up, princess?
-Hi, Charly.
I was just calling to tell you
we are working on the changes you wanted.
Will you be long?
I still have a lot to do,
but, you know what?
I want you to take care of that.
I want the full treatment
for Cris Vega's launch.
A concert, the works.
I'm here working on it.
OK, just come back soon,
I don't like staying up late.
Not even with me?
I would love to spend the night...
-We've been busted, sir!
-What was that?
-Here.
-Charly!
Take cover!
Charly, arm yourself, now!
Charly, hello!
What's going on?
Clear out!
Charly, what's going on?
Answer me, hello?
Charly!
Answer me, hello!
Hello!
Charly.
Hey!
-Hands up!
-Don't move!
Hands up!
Nobody move!
National police!
They ran out this way!
-This way!
-Coming, Rizzo!
Cover me, Rizzo!
These guys are well armed!
Be careful!
Pérez, take six men to the left front!
-The rest, come with me.
-Go, go, go!
Turn off that fucking phone!
Lift the ladder!
Your call is being transferred
to voicemail.
What is it? Come in.
Did something happen?
You have a face...
No, I'm trying to call Charly,
but something's wrong with the signal.
Good thing you can't get through.
You can do that later.
Why? What happened?
I just think I found a good solution
to please Charly
without sacrificing quality, so...
I want you to listen
and tell me what you think.
-Sure, let's go.
-Yeah? OK, then.
Careful.
Look for possible exits.
-Listen.
-Gorgeous lady
I feel your eyes are deceiving me
I don't know what you're up to
But I'll take a chance for you
Listen, gorgeous lady
I feel your eyes are deceiving me
I don't know what you're up to
Run! This way, boss!
Get down!
Manín's getting away!
Let's go, Charly!
-My cell phone!
-Fuck your cell phone!
Get the cell phone!
-You got hit, moron!
-Son of a bitch!
Let's go!
Let's go!
-All clear?
-Yes, clear!
Mr. Manín, this way, come on!
She won't be able to stop
Her madness I will unravel
So?
Sounds good.
No, where's your enthusiasm,
Tammy?
What? No, just play the track again.
Go ahead, play it.
OK, I'll fix some things,
and open a channel just for the chorus.
Maybe that will draw you in,
because...
What is it? What's the matter?
-What is it?
-Nothing, play the track.
-You're somewhere else.
-No, I'm not,
this is my focused face.
Play it, please, I'm here.
It's good.
Check the area!
They went that way.
Shit, Rizzo,
there's nothing here, man!
Reinforce the block from behind,
reinforce the block from behind.
Stop!
Damn it, they got away!
We need backup!
Backup!
Backup! Let's go, quick!
Move it!
Don't lose them, bro!
Yes, sir, sure.
What's up, old man?
Are you gonna run us over or what?
You are not leaving this place.
They are going towards Aranjuez.
Go get them.
I want Manín alive.
I repeat, I want him alive.
Stop, please!
Get out.
Get out, now!
What's the matter?
Son of a bitch, it's empty!
Captain, the vehicle's trunk is empty.
Easy, easy!
What is it, Charly?
Come on!
-Let's go, my boy!
-Go easy!
Come on!
Easy.
Easy.
It hurts!
Don't worry, I told you
it's just a scratch, man.
Think of the story
you'll tell your grandkids.
Easy!
Here, buddy. Drink.
The bullet's still inside.
Bring coffee.
We have to stop this bleeding.
Clench your teeth.
Go easy.
Don't move, Charly,
it's better if you don't move.
-Stop!
-Be still!
Here, drink.
OK, it took a bit more time,
but there you have it.
Do we change anything else?
No, I think it's perfect.
RIZZO:
YOUR HOUSE IN ONE HOUR
What is it?
Did Charly text you?
No, but it's better
if we stop now, OK?
I'm exhausted.
Juancho, good job.
See you tomorrow.
I'll tell Charly
so we can show him the material.
-OK? Bye.
-Bye.
Princess, how was school today?
Fine, normal.
What do you mean by normal?
What's new?
Princess, you haven't called me all day.
If I don't call you, you don't call me.
Mom, I forgot.
Forgive me?
And your father?
Have you heard from him?
No, no idea.
What's Charly up to?
Attention, a few hours ago
the police conducted an operation
to apprehend Duver Cruz,
aka Manín.
There was a clash which ended in gunfire
in Candelaria,
Northeastern Commune Ten,
when the boss and his men
resisted arrest.
There are several casualties,
but the bodies are not identified yet.
The whereabouts of the boss,
who fled during the shoot-out,
is still unknown.
He is assumed to be hiding
in one of the 15 communes
which make up the Northeastern block
of Medellín.
Mom, are you calling Grandma?
Yes, but she's not answering.
Your call is being transferred
to voicemail.
-Your call is being...
-She is not answering.
You lost him?
How could he escape?
Didn't you have him surrounded?
Manín was ready to leave
at a moment's notice.
He escaped with four of his men
and Charly, who's wounded.
Charly is wounded?
This is a disaster!
You don't know where he is?
Still in the communes,
but that area is too vast.
Besides, the people there
are protecting him.
Yeah, but you are the police, right?
If he's hiding like a rat,
flush him out.
It's not as simple as you think.
I was looking forward
to that murderer being caught.
And now you have no idea
where he is?
All this effort,
all the risks, for nothing.
I'm still your prisoner
until you find him.
Would you rather be a prisoner
in New Jersey?
Honestly, neither.
Yeimy...
You've done a great job.
But you have to understand
that surveillance and infiltration work
is mostly about patience and time.
Rizzo.
I've waited for 17 years for Charly
and his uncle to pay. I know patience.
We cordoned off the perimeter
where we think they may be.
We need to wait for him to move
to detect him.
We're gonna catch him.
I was on the phone with Charly
when you got there.
If I call and he answers,
you can trace the call, right?
Do it.
Your call is being transferred
to voicemail.
Your call is being transferred
to voicemail.
What now?
We know that so far, Charly
hasn't returned home or to the studio.
Do you plan to arrest him?
No...
No.
It's better if he thinks
we didn't see him in the commune.
For him to be free
so that he contacts Manín again.
If the bullet you put in him
doesn't kill him first.
We need to wait and see
what happens with that.
For now, the area is under surveillance
and Manín won't get away.
Here.
It hurts.
It hurts.
I'm thirsty.
-I'm thirsty.
-Here, kid.
Boss, he's burning up.
We must do something,
or he'll die.
Then tough shit.
'Cause you know what?
Boss, we're still surrounded by the cops.
Then there's no way to get him out.
Don't worry, Charly.
Uncle, call my wife.
Call my daughter!
Bring them to me, Uncle.
The pain is getting bad.
Don't worry,
I'm taking care of things!
Breathe.
Try to drink some water.
Find a way to bring him a doctor.
There's cops all over the place!
Figure it out!
Find a way!
Yes, sir.
My nephew will not die here!
Lucio, call Carrancho.
We haven't heard from Carrancho, sir.
Don't you see he's out of the picture?
Locate him.
He must be hiding.
Tell him to bring a doctor.
Yes, sir.
Why are you laying there?
Buddy, leave me alone.
I'm composing.
You didn't hear all that gunfire
in the commune?
Sure, you're plugged in all day long.
How could you?
What happened?
This place is crawling
with cops, man.
It's an operation to catch your dad.
And did they?
No, he's hiding.
What are you doing?
Buddy, I'm leaving.
Where to?
Didn't you hear
there are cops all over the place?
So? I haven't done anything.
He's the one they're after.
And where will you go?
To my mother's.
She must be really worried.
See you.
But how?
What happened to him? Where is he?
From what I heard on the radio,
he managed to escape.
That's all I know.
Where can he be?
What is he doing?
Ma, don't worry,
Dad has a strategic mind.
I'm sure he was prepared.
Although...
Although what?
Although what?
Ma...
Wouldn't you like him to be caught
and be done with all the suffering?
That's the life your dad chose...
and yes, it affects us, but...
he wouldn't do well
being confined.
Confined?
Isn't he confined to the communes?
Running from the police
like a rat?
From hideout to hideout?
This is tasty.
Be still.
It hurts.
Is that an anesthetic?
No, antibiotics, man.
Ready, let's extract the bullet.
Be very still.
-Go easy!
-Here, this is the best anesthetic.
-Wait.
-Hang in there, boy.
That's it.
-Hang on.
-Gently.
Drink up.
That's it.
Stop.
Hold on, man.
-Stay calm.
-Don't move, help us out.
Gently.
It's out.
Keep giving him the antibiotics.
And the wound?
It must be kept clean.
Wash it with this,
and change the dressings
every two or three hours, OK?
Keep an eye on him.
If his temperature goes up,
take him to the hospital.
It won't be necessary.
My nephew is strong like me.
For your troubles.
And you know, right?
Keep your mouth shut,
and you won't have any problems.
No, Rizzo confirmed
he didn't go back to his house.
What if he's dead?
No.
No, Jack, for that bastard,
dying is the easiest way out, no.
While we wait for him,
what I should do is destabilize Gema.
That's what I should do.
You know what?
Tell the media Charly Flow is missing.
-That it's been 24 hours...
-Hey, wait a moment.
Slow down.
Now you are giving me orders?
Oh, Jack,
I'm just asking for a favor.
The police has cordoned off
the neighborhood.
If Charly is with his uncle,
he can't get out.
I'm just asking you to say
he's been missing for 24 hours.
I understand your anger.
I swear I do.
But it seems to me
you are not looking for justice.
This looks like something else.
It seems to me you're after revenge.
Don't you even care
if he's dead or alive?
Did he mind leaving me to rot in jail?
Or that his uncle sent people
to kill me?
I didn't know you were on his side.
I thought you understood me.
All I understand is you're blinded.
And you are mistaken.
How could I be on that guy's side?
I don't even care about him.
What I can see
is that in your quest for revenge,
you will hurt
all the innocent people in your way
who haven't done anything to you.
Like the daughter, for instance.
Or haven't you thought what she'll feel
when she hears her father is dead?
If that is the case.
Calm down, I'll find a journalist
to help me with the news.
Don't worry.
Juancho.
It's your opportunity to return to music.
I know you miss it.
You're not just a businessman.
You are an artist.
How do you know that?
We don't know each other.
Let's have a drink here.
Then you choose where we eat, OK?
Sure, lead the way.
The girlfriend should choose, right?
I mean, you are from Medellín.
You know it better than me, right?
What were you thinking of?
You looked distracted.
Oh, no...
Just thinking about how I left the studio.
Why talk about that?
We don't like to discuss those things.
Juancho, no...
I don't mind you doing what you love.
But I don't want you to...
to leave me out, to neglect me.
Oh, my lady...
That's never gonna happen,
you hear me?
Never.
What do you know about Tammy?
What's up
with that question?
It's a normal question, isn't it?
Isn't it good to know about her
now that you are working together
at Charly's studios,
the ones you set up?
Well, actually, I don't know that much.
She...
She was born in...
She was born here, and then went
to Puerto Rico, and there...
she became a great music producer,
not to say the best, and that's it.
That's all I care about. Why?
-Don't know. Doesn't she remind you...?
-Good morning.
-Linis, how are you?
-Marcos, do you want breakfast?
Good. So nice to see you.
I left you some arepas.
They're warming up, don't let them burn.
So thoughtful, Cata.
Thanks.
So, what about you?
Ready to be man and wife?
Actually, yes.
What were you saying about Tammy?
That I don't know why,
but she seems familiar.
I don't understand.
Familiar how?
As if I knew her from before.
I don't know.
Ignore me.
I'm just thinking nonsense.
The police are laying siege to two
of Medellín's northeastern communes,
to capture drug trafficker
Duver Cruz, aka Manín.
The operation, launched this morning,
is of an unprecedented scale.
In international news,
our special correspondent in New York,
María Giménez, has more information...
FEBRUARY 20, 2002
HAPPY BRIDE AND GROOM
FEBRUARY 14, 2002
MY FIRST MONTH
TODAY YOU CAME INTO OUR LIVES
TO GIVE US LOVE AND JOY
-And that mess?
-I was looking at old pictures.
But I will tidy it all up.
Why didn't you
ever show me all this?
There's lots of stuff I have never seen.
Did you see on the news that Dad
is still in hiding?
They haven't caught him.
The Lord be praised.
Confirmed.
The police are working with the DEA.
I thought as much, boss.
Damn dogs!
They only want to take you to the U.S.
Let them keep trying.
They won't succeed.
Boss, do you want me
to call Lieutenant Brito?
He's the one who confirmed it.
Charly, boy.
Hi, Gema. How are you?
Good.
What do you need?
To talk to Charly.
It's about Cris Vega's album.
No, Charly is...
He's busy.
Oh, don't worry.
I'll wait for him.
I just need him
to go over this material
-to make decisions. Juancho...
-You know what? My...
My husband
didn't feel well this morning.
-He's unwell...
-Mom!
Mom, it's Dad!
Come quickly!
-Your dad?
-No, Mom, on TV.
After being at the center
of a recent scandal,
Charly Flow is headline news again.
This time, not for his excesses,
but because
he is reportedly missing.
We've tried to get in touch
with the singer or his manager,
his wife, Gema Cruz.
How did this get leaked so fast?
What?
Mom, you knew Dad was missing
and didn't tell me?
-Princess, no...
-No, don't say another word.
In this house, either they lie to me,
or they don't tell me a thing.
Princess, wait. Vane!
I'm talking to you.
Vanesa, open up.
Open, and I'll tell you why
that reporter said that, sweetie.
-Vanesa...
-I don't wanna talk to you!
Vanesa, please, don't be so dramatic,
for God's sake.
Gema, what is this about Charly
being missing?
I really have no idea
why that reporter said that.
Well, you know the business.
It feeds off rumors.
But this seems to be true.
You look worried.
The thing is...
Charly isn't picking up the phone,
he hasn't come home,
and you know how that girl gets.
And I haven't slept a wink.
Gema, it's normal.
She's worried about her dad.
What is normal is for Charly to do that.
He must be with friends.
He's a musician after all, right?
Partying.
-He must be partying.
-I don't think so.
I mean... He hasn't called or shown up
in a long time...
Well, yes.
That's true.
It's not the first time
Charly's pulled one of these stunts.
And you see how she gets,
and I'm here,
trying to hold the fort.
OK, calm down.
Do you want me to talk to her?
To help you with Vanesa?
Like I did the other night.
She's a mature girl.
She's sensitive.
She'll calm down if I talk to her.
It's normal for this to affect her.
What makes you think my daughter
would talk to you and not to me?
That I can tell her
something about her dad.
-What?
-I saw Charly yesterday at the studio.
Yesterday morning.
You know something about my dad?
Yes, honey, I saw him yesterday,
and he was fine.
Don't cry.
This is not a big deal.
-See, princess? It's no big deal...
-No, I'll talk to Tammy.
-Now, what do you know about Dad?
-Look, honey, what I told you.
I saw him at Excelsior yesterday.
He was fine.
Calm down.
Why are you so upset?
Tammy, I don't know if my dad is OK,
or if something's happened to him.
I call him and he doesn't answer.
His battery may be dead,
right?
Come on,
do it for your mom.
She's worried.
She's nervous.
She needs you now.
My mom thinks I'm a little girl,
a silly girl
who can't be told anything.
Well, she probably didn't tell you,
so you wouldn't worry.
Your mom will do anything
for her family.
Even neglect herself
to put others first.
Do you think that's fair?
No, honey, calm down.
OK?
I know I'm like that, but...
Tammy, you have to understand.
I haven't heard from my dad,
and if anything happens to him,
I don't know what I'd do.
He is my life, you see?
Come here.
There, calm down.
-Hello?
-Babe.
Charly!
Charly, where are you?
Why didn't you call?
I'm OK.
That's what matters.
Where are you? Huh?
Babe, I can't talk.
I just want you and Vanesa
to know I'm fine.
Nothing happened to me.
OK?
The press is saying you are missing
and Vanesa saw it.
She's upset.
And I didn't sleep all night, Charly.
Babe, I was partying.
That's all.
Charly, for once in your life,
tell me the truth.
Trust me, for once in your life.
I know they found your uncle's
hideout. Are you with him?
Yes, I'm with him.
I got hit
during the gunfight.
-What?
-That's why I can't leave here.
-Where did...?
-I can't move.
-Where did they get you, Charly?
-Obviously, I can't show up there.
Charly, are you in the hospital?
Tell me you are at the clinic.
Can't be done, babe.
But I'm fine. That's what matters.
Hey, Charly.
What do you want me to do, Charly?
Tell me.
Tell me what to do.
How can I help?
How can I help you?
I don't know. Think of something,
because I can't right now.
-You come up with something.
-Charly, what do I tell our girl?
What do I tell the media?
What do I tell everybody?
Tell me, help me.
Yeah, wait.
Babe, I love you.
Give Vanesa a kiss from me.
Hello?
Charly?
This number...
Better?
Yeah, Tammy, thanks.
You have helped me twice.
It's not that hard.
You're pretty great.
You know what?
I like it that you're friends
with my dad.
I like you.
Too bad my mom's awful to you.
No, not awful.
She's wary.
Honey...
You know you can tell me anything,
right?
And I won't say a word
if you don't want me to.
Is there anything else
bothering you?
Oh, Tammy, it's...
I've been very bad lately.
I've done things...
Never mind, forget it.
Things?
What things, Vane?
Well, I didn't treat my dad well
with that journalist business.
-That video. And I was really harsh.
-That?
That's nothing, honey.
When your dad comes back,
because he will,
you'll say you're sorry, that you
didn't mean to talk to him like that...
And he'll forgive you.
I swear.
-Really?
-Of course. Come here.
-Sweet.
-Thanks, Tammy.
She's calmer now,
if you want to talk to her.
Of course.
I will, when I think it's right.
Of course. Um...
I'll leave you now.
Gema, really. I hope everything is fine.
And that Charly appears soon.
Bye.
Wait.
Thank you.
For talking to her,
and for bringing her the other day.
I didn't say it before.
No, you don't need to thank me, Gema.
It's my pleasure.
What I do for your family,
I do it with pleasure.
And count on me
for whatever you need, OK?
I'm here.
I mean it.
Charly called.
Now?
What did he say?
Where is he?
What I told you.
He had gone partying.
And he didn't want Vanesa
to see him in that state, so...
That's why he hadn't come.
In what state? Why?
Did anything happen to him?
OK. Fine.
It's personal, I'll stay out of it,
but, Gema...
The media will start asking questions.
Is Charly on his way home, at least?
No, he isn't.
OK...
So, how about we plan
what to say to the media?
So they leave you alone
for a while, huh?
And what could we tell them?
The last thing Charly said
in the interview.
That he's in a rehab clinic,
doing it for his family.
And for the fans.
-For the fans, of course.
-OK.
So that's the plan, right?
I'll coordinate and we'll talk, yeah?
Stay calm.
Stay calm.
It will be OK.
Charly isn't missing.
He's at an exclusive rehab clinic
to fulfill the promises
he made to his fans...
and his family.
Tell us, Gema, as Charly Flow's wife
and manager,
why did you decide
to make this public statement?
Because of all the speculation.
Honestly,
this was harming my family.
Especially my daughter.
So I am asking for this to stop.
I am telling you the truth.
This is very difficult.
This situation...
is very delicate.
It's a human being trying...
to fight his demons
to become again...
the idol
everybody expects him to be.
So I ask all of you
to help Charly.
I ask for your respect.
And above all, your solidarity.
I finally got Gema
to let her guard down with me.
My most important discovery
is that Vanesa has a secret.
What secret?
-Do you really want to know?
-Look, don't give me that.
You know perfectly well I don't judge you
and I want the best for you.
If you want what's best for me,
understand
that Charly must pay
for what he did to me.
My grandma and son died
because I wasn't with them.
That was an accident.
A terrible accident, yes.
Unfair as well.
But life is like that,
and those things happen.
It was no accident, Jack!
It was no accident. It was a consequence
of what Charly did to me,
of the drugs he planted on me,
for which I got 17 years in jail.
Seventeen!
And I was innocent.
I couldn't be with my son.
I couldn't raise him.
I couldn't be with him.
I lost everything because of him.
And he will lose everything
because of me.
OK?
I know...
I know what that guy did to you.
Look.
Forgive me, I...
I didn't mean to make you feel bad.
I'm sorry.
Tell me.
Vanesa has a secret.
And she doesn't
get along with her mom.
Charly is her favorite, so to speak.
All I ask
is that you don't hurt that girl
while you settle the score
with Charly Flow, OK?
I want you to consider that.
Jack, obviously,
I'm not going to mess with the child.
-OK.
-Gema is different.
What do you mean?
It's clear Charly's infidelities
don't hurt that marriage.
But if it were
the other way around?
OK.
Looking good, Charly.
You look better.
-It still hurts when I move.
-Don't move, then.
You hear me?
I was talking to my contact
within the police.
Those gringo pigs
are in love with me.
Word is they turned Medellín
upside down hunting for me.
No way.
That's just wrong.
Wrong?
Worse than wrong.
Things are worse than I thought.
And it has to do
with you, Charly.
With me?
Why with me?
I've been thinking, Charly.
And I'm sure
you are being followed, bro.
That's how they found me.
Following me?
I don't think so.
Besides, how would they know
we were gonna meet?
Either...
they are tailing you all the time...
or they are listening
to our conversations.
The last time we talked,
I was at the office.
What?
Call Gema back.
Tell her to close the office
and not let anybody in.
When you get better, go and search it.
I'm sure there is something there.
