01x03 - Negociar

[bunniefuu]

[engine rumbling]

[metallic creaking]

[Manuel] What are you talking about?

Look, what I need is--

[man 1] Hello! Hi, good morning. Stop.

Shut the equipment down, please.

-Hi, good morning.

-Good morning.

Excuse me, sorry to have to do this,

but I'm required to inform you

that work has to stop

on this property right now.

No, no, I talked

to the planning officer myself.

-There's gotta be a mistake.

-He's fully aware of everything.

[man 2] Something wrong?

[man 3] No, just some hard-a*s

asking about the permits.

-[man 1] Are you the builder?

-[builder] That's right.

[man 2] The renovation permit you have

does not allow work on this scale…

[indistinct chatter]

[tense music playing]

-[man 1] I'm sorry, gentlemen.

-[man 2] No need. That's how it is.

[man 1] All right, we'll wrap it up then.

Okay, gentlemen?

[man 2] I wish that…

[tense music continues]

I'm good. Let's go.

[phone buzzing]

Yes, Paolo. Everything all right?

No. I wanted to talk to you.

No. About the channel.

Do you still wanna buy it?

Yolanda's still going to manage it.

I don't need permission if I wanna sell.

Hey, sometimes you take

your kids' toys away, teach 'em a lesson.

[suspenseful theme music playing]

[tires screech]

ROTTEN LEGACY

[birds twittering]

[boy] Dad.

[Andrés groans softly]

-Hey.

-Are you all right?

Yeah.

I thought you and I could go swimming.

Are you sad because Grandpa's a b*stard?

What did you say?

Edu was saying that to Mom.

They thought I wasn't paying attention.

Mm. No, first of all,

don't talk that way, Marcos.

And second,

that's not how your grandfather is.

You know what happened?

Your dad was playing a game

with your grandfather,

and Mom and Edu,

uh, they were rooting for me.

[tender music playing]

But I didn't win.

But they… they didn't mean it.

Well, I don't actually think

the game's over yet.

'Cause your dad doesn't quit so easy.

Right, Marcos?

Like whenever he plays basketball with you

and you beat him,

he always wants a rematch, right?

It's the same with Grandpa.

You just gotta go at it again.

You're gonna leave your room like that?

It's a total pigsty.

Mirella is not going to

clear away your sh*t.

But she will for you?

There we go.

You just forfeited access

to your credit card for an entire week.

[Lara sighs] Damn it.

Ten days.

That's how it is?

Then we have to pay

for the troubles with your children?

Pardon me

if I'm not just a shining example

of joy and happiness,

especially after they tried

to disenfranchise me.

So that's a yes.

But you don't pass up a chance to be rude.

-I… I'm sorry.

-I know it's hurtful, I get it.

I know you must be angry,

which is completely understandable,

but how do you think this turns out?

You know as well as I do,

I never wanted to give that interview.

[sighs]

But I thought you would go into things

like the ambassador's stomach cramps.

So don't go trying to blame me

for this whole mess, you got that?

Your daughter and I don't want

any part of this little display of yours.

It's ridiculous.

-Hmm?

-Perfect.

[Isabel] Perfect.

[tense, quiet music playing]

[Guadalupe] Hi.

You by yourself today?

Well, when you force your daughter

to get divorced, it's what tends to go on.

Family gatherings are less attractive.

You're getting divorced?

You're surprised?

Or more infuriated?

Infuriated, right?

If you'd known, you wouldn't have

stopped work on the house.

And how're the girls?

Yeah, well… with how everything is,

I don't think you'll be seeing them much.

Actually, neither will I.

My lawyer made it clear that I'd lose

any battle over custody of the girls.

Because I mean,

Manuel's the one raising them both

since I'm never really there.

But… are they all right?

They're good. They're doing great.

They're at the perfect age

for their parents to separate.

The main thing, though,

is I've done what you asked me to.

Today's about celebrating, isn't it?

[somber music playing]

[indistinct office chatter]

[worker] Get that report turned in?

I need that soon.

Sooner than later.

It better not be late. 9:00am.

-[Andrés] Are you leaving?

-Yeah.

To Rimini.

I got invited to try the new Rivas.

Do you wanna come along?

I'm not really into speedboats

and everything, to be honest.

-Your family's more of a sailboat crowd.

-[chuckles]

So was there something

else besides boats, or…

[sighs] My father's about to ask

for my head at the board meeting.

[sighs] My goodness, Andrés

Let me explain it to you this way.

I'm not involved

in the journalism business.

It's not what I do.

I'm here on behalf of a group of investors

who may just as well have bought into

some sort of a… pesticide plant.

Well, I can't see your fund

ever investing in a pesticide plant

that's done nothing but lose money

for two straight years.

If you keep pumping cash into El Báltico,

it's because we're still semi-useful

in manipulating public opinion

to serve your interests.

And that's thanks to me.

I'm well aware

of what our interests are, okay?

And honestly, Andrés, I don't

get into battles I know I can't win.

You're not the accountant.

[huffs] Come in. For Christ's sake.

[sighs] All right.

Damn.

Let's go over it.

This is how voting will go.

VOTE ON THE DISMISSAL

OF ANDRÉS SELIGMAN

[man] Ten board members.

Three represent your family firm…

DISMISSAL VOTE

…and will follow Federico's

voting instructions.

Two represent banks.

I could… work on them,

but so could your father.

Another two are from my investment fund.

Don't worry about them.

And another three are independent.

You may take "independent"

to mean handpicked by your father.

So I'm betting they won't be too keen

on biting the very hand that feeds them.

It's not gonna be easy,

but… what if you worked

on convincing the bankers

and let me work on the independents?

[man] You're optimistic. Not that

I doubt your powers of persuasion,

but all your dad needs is one

to change their mind and remain loyal

for it to be a technical draw.

And honestly, Andrés,

that's something no one wants.

-Right.

-Your sister.

Have you seen her vote differently

from what the family wanted?

That woman's never stood up

to her father in her entire life.

Well, there you go, Andrés.

Listen, we're good. I like you, all right?

No, well, I mean, to be honest,

I pretty much like you

slightly more than your father.

But you see, I'm not willing

to go into a battle I've already lost.

Know what I mean, Andrés? Okay?

I gotta go, or I'll be late.

Aguirre.

Aguirre.

This isn't just for me.

If you don't fight this battle,

you could very well lose the w*r.

That chair there…

Aren't we still missing,

um… What's his name? My son…

It's um… Your brother, uh, the oldest one.

I've been getting so forgetful lately.

I think you need

to disenfranchise me, right?

You didn't think it was funny?

That's because it wasn't.

No one was aware that Andrés was gonna

take everything so far, Dad. I don't know.

Don't sit there and try

to saddle him with all the blame.

Don't pretend like you weren't there,

acting so concerned about my test results.

You thought you had me fooled.

At the very least,

Andrés had the decency to not show up.

You thought you could put on a smile

and everything would be all right?

No, sweetheart.

Okay, I, um… I get that… that you wanna

punish us, okay? That's fine.

But just tell me what the point is

of you selling my channel?

-Your channel?

-My channel, yes.

Then why are they making

their offers to me?

We're profitable.

We've got plenty of advertisement deals,

and the number of viewers keeps growing--

Making money doesn't justify

anything at all. It shouldn't, anyway.

And what you're doing with the channel

is contributing to a system

that needs idiots

that consume without asking questions.

It's called entertainment, Dad.

What do you expect? [huffs]

Herding sheep's not entertainment.

Sorry, but for some people who spend

the whole day putting up with their boss

for a shitty salary, getting home,

and disconnecting for a while

is all they really want.

That's the story you tell yourself

so you don't feel like an accomplice?

You were given that channel.

We put you in that position.

Before that, it was the newspaper,

the radio station for a while,

and the art gallery another time.

And after we sell this one,

it'll be something else. It's up to you.

Because you're lucky enough

to be my daughter.

[laughs softly] It's not fair.

[tender music playing]

I'm sorry that's what you think of me.

No, that's what you think.

It's the same

for the rest of your siblings.

You guys have had chances to explore

whatever dreams you wanted to,

but you preferred

to bury yourself in irrelevance,

in being somebody's daughter.

You chose not to stand out,

to just fit in.

To have no real responsibility,

to let other people make

decisions for you.

So that's what I'm doing.

[sniffs]

I can't believe this.

Yolanda.

Well, Federico, we're…

we're leaving, okay?

[sobbing]

[Ricardo] Baby, it's really the best

thing that could happen.

Now he's done some bad things to you,

and it's normal to hate the guy.

[phone pinging]

But… it's best to get these things out

in the open, not keep them hidden.

I'm sure he's not serious

about the channel. He's just cranky.

Hey, uh, excuse me,

but what on earth could you possibly

be doing on your cell phone, Ricardo?

[Ricardo laughs] Nothing.

It's just some chick

that I agreed to meet.

She keeps sending me

dirty messages to turn me on.

But I'm telling her that I can't do it.

[rock music playing faintly on radio]

Mm. What was it

we talked about the other night?

Uh, well… I'm not sure. It was about you,

and I didn't wanna force you

to do anything that you didn't wanna do.

-You serious right now?

-Why?

I mean, at no point did I think that

it meant I couldn't, you know, keep on--

Of course it meant that.

It's not complicated at all.

-Never mind, just do whatever you want.

-No, baby, but I didn't--

But I can't believe that with all

that's going on now with my dad,

your main focus is trying to find

someone else to go have sex with.

But I didn't know

this was gonna happen today.

I mean, if you'd told me

about your brother's stupid idea

to blackmail a doctor

outta nowhere for some reason

and your father'd find out about it,

I may not have made plans.

[car horns blaring]

[woman] The thing we talked about

last time would fit right here.

-No, it's different now.

-[man] We can't go on like this.

[woman 2] Everyone who's seen this

agrees with what we're saying.

I feel like it's basically the same thing.

[man 2] Guys!

I love getting out of Moncloa

to come see you,

but… is it really that difficult

to decide on an independent we all like?

[woman] Minister,

you're still not Vice President.

This position is our responsibility.

It seems like, uh, it's going nowhere.

Let's take a few minutes.

[indistinct chatter]

There's no point

holding our ground like this.

You know they'll never accept Ibon.

So the idea is to pile

a lot of pressure on him today.

That way, when we offer

the second option to him,

then he'll be relieved by it.

[laughs]

So hey,

you and Manuel, is that real?

Yeah, of course.

-Is there someone else?

-[coughs] Excuse me?

Come on, we've all noticed

how you've been looking at Juanjo.

He's adorable.

What are you talking about? I mean, well…

Okay yeah, Juanjo's cute, sure, but no.

It's got nothing to do with Juanjo.

But seriously,

are you okay with this Manuel thing?

Sort of, yeah.

Okay as one can be, I guess.

I think you've made the right decision.

Difficult, sure.

But it'll open a lot of doors for you.

You'll see very soon.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, shall we?

Some of us have a country to run.

[indistinct chatter]

[tense music playing]

Seriously though, what else has to happen

for you to confront him here?

No, what else has to happen

for you to understand

that that would accomplish nothing?

Yolanda, if I could help you

with Femininity, I would.

I'm just not able to.

However, you can stop 'em

from getting me ousted.

And what do you think he will do after?

I have no idea, but your channel doesn't--

That's right, Andrés,

and whose fault is that?

-It's Dad's fault.

-No, dammit, he's hurting.

He's f*cked up, you know?

The thing that you did is--

-I'm sorry?

-God.

-The thing I did?

-Fine; what we both did.

-Ah.

-Whatever, yeah.

What we did was just horrible. Horrible!

And forcing your daughter to get

a divorce is, um… is wonderful.

Isn't it?

Please tell me why it seems

you're always so quick to forgive him.

-[beeping]

-[indistinct chatter over radio]

[sniffs]

How are you?

The doctor looked at him

and said he had a cracked rib,

but there's not much you can do for it.

Sons of b*tches.

-You think it's 'cause of the interview?

-Yes.

[Federico] sh*t. I'm sorry, Enrique.

-[beeping]

-[indistinct chatter]

-I really am sorry about this.

-Don't worry about it.

[gasping] I went through a whole lot worse

back when the secret police

were still running around.

Yeah, I know.

I'd say that's

where this pig learned how to do it.

You know, he was like one of those…

those assholes that just know

they can get away with anything.

[man] Don't turn on the light.

[music fades]

[pensive music playing]

[man] I would prefer

if you didn't see my face.

[exhales]

[Enrique] Anyway,

I've been on so many painkillers recently,

you know,

that to be honest with you,

it didn't really hurt.

Enrique can pretend he doesn't care

and that nothing bothers him,

saying it's just 'cause he's been sick.

You can believe all that if you want.

But they won't stop with him, you know?

I know, you're right.

-[phone ringing]

-It's definitely gone too far.

[Lola exhales]

[Lola] Well, I've gotta go.

But, uh, do you really need this…

this interview so bad?

You should think about others

and destroy it.

Before there's another accident.

[Enrique] Thanks, Lola.

[suspenseful music playing]

She might actually be right.

Tell me what you're so afraid of

if they leak the interview tomorrow.

Of how you'll be silenced?

-Are you afraid of what people think?

-I'm mostly worried about you.

[line ringing]

-Vargas.

-[Vargas] Lola.

-I was wondering when I'd hear--

-No, don't say a thing.

This is not what we had talked about.

No. I warned you it

wouldn't be pretty, didn't I?

-Yeah.

-So what's the issue?

I know you've got

peculiar ways of doing things,

but coming in to beat up

my friends was never--

-Lola, you knew what you were asking for.

-No!

You just needed someone

willing to do it, right?

Yes!

So there.

-You got what you wanted, didn't you?

-Yes.

Federico seemed very upset about it. Yes.

If I destroy the interview now,

will you think I'm a coward?

Yeah.

But we all are, myself included.

Look, I'm not in any kind of…

of position to lecture or advise anyone.

I think you do whatever

you think should be done.

[mouse clicking]

LEGACYFEDERICOSELIGMAN

ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DELETE ALL FILES?

DELETE

CANCEL

Gabriel, uh, I wanna know

what the hell you were actually thinking

when you gave the order

to have Enrique all beaten up.

Well, why, uh… why would I want

to do anything to Enrique?

Come on. I… I… I love all his books.

But I wonder,

what did you say in that interview

you thought I'd hate so much?

Trust me, you can relax.

I don't say that you were Mister X.

[chuckles]

I wish I was. [laughs]

State terrorism would've been

handled better.

[Federico] Well, all of this is

turning out to be quite sloppy instead.

Okay, then perhaps it wasn't us.

Sure. It seems you always have someone

else doing your dirty work.

I want a name now.

Look, if I were you,

I would get my own house in order

because it did get pretty dusty

while you were gone.

And I wouldn't look for more trouble.

This might just be

more than you're able to handle.

And I might say the same for you.

You don't wanna make me mad.

'Cause you're about half a scandal away

from a vote of no confidence.

What scandal are you threatening me with?

The Bruno thing was years ago.

That was a different government.

Yeah, but you were part of it too.

-[Guadalupe] Well…

-Hey, I can leave if you want. I don't…

No, it's better this way.

Till construction starts up again. Okay?

Right.

All right.

Goodbye.

[sighs]

[knocking at door]

How's it going?

What do you think?

It pisses me off

having to do this just because of Dad.

It's always like this.

He says jump, and we say, "How high?"

Oh my…

Sometimes, something good comes

from Dad's outbursts.

[laughs] Remember?

You dyed your hair. Oh my gosh.

It was the first time

your father left home.

Oh, I remember. [laughs]

You know, I don't think

anyone truly realizes

the difficulties you endure

to look like a liberal.

[both laugh]

Oh, my girl.

Mm.

[pensive music playing]

[Yolanda clears throat]

Andrés came to see me.

He wants me to vote for him

at the board meeting,

and I figure he's probably…

out doing the same thing with everyone.

And also, I… I assume he's not

simply using words to convince people.

Why're you telling me all this?

Helping me out like this?

[Yolanda] Mm… I don't know. I think…

I just want everything

to go back to the way it was.

[music becomes ominous]

I think the most important

thing is the interview.

It's the best way for us

to stand out in class.

You're right.

That's why I say we interview your dad.

It's the perfect starting point for us.

I think with you, he would open up

in a way he wouldn't with anyone else.

[huffs] No.

And plus, my dad's old fashioned.

-We'll do Yolanda.

-Yolanda?

Yeah.

What?

Yeah, but, Yolanda's so basic.

I mean, she's pretty boring you know?

[rock music playing in background]

I mean, my sister's a woman

who got herself a channel that pretty much

every streaming platform wants,

and she also pulled in some popular

Turkish soap operas out of thin air.

-Sorry.

-Okay.

Appealing to a female demographic…

…who was always overlooked.

Like, hello? Turkish soaps?

-[chuckles]

-Only you could see that coming.

You've also achieved

the… the perfect mix of, uh,

reality TV shows and hate-watching shows

that really seems to work.

-Couldn't have said it better.

-Of course.

Because she's family,

and I'm much more objective.

But you're just kissing her a*s.

You're not interviewing her.

Lara, please don't, uh, interrupt the man.

[phone ringing]

Ask me. Go on.

No, just that…

I really admire what you're achieving

in a man's world.

It's not easy making entertainment.

Not everything can be highbrow catered

just for the elites, can it?

[crying]

-Yolanda, do you want to stop or…

-No. I'm sorry.

-This is so embarrassing.

-No, no.

No. Sorry.

It's just these last few days, I've been…

-Are you all right?

-Yeah, it's okay. I'm fine, I…

I just feel like

I spent my whole life trying to build,

struggling and fighting to make

something real and… genuine.

And it gets taken away.

I don't know.

You just sounded so… perceptive,

so… profound that I…

Anyway. I'm sorry. [chuckles]

What else? Any questions?

Like… like how everything works maybe.

Or better yet, how about if we, uh,

if we go someplace for happy hour?

-The three of us. It's on me. Yeah?

-Sure. I get to pick the place though.

-That's fine by me.

-[man] Let's go then.

-[club music plays]

-[man] That's why I'm here.

DISMISSAL VOTE

YES 6 NO 4

YES 5 NO 5

[no audible dialogue]

-[club music continues]

-[no audible dialogue]

Here we are, gentlemen.

-You look incredible.

-[chuckles]

-Would you like me to bring you another?

-Yes, thank you.

-This looks incredible. Thank you.

-Absolutely.

Just let me know when.

[music continues]

[Federico] I know what Andrés is up to.

Of course, you have the right to back him.

It is up to you. It's your decision.

But first, I'd like to explain

the way I view your position

within the company I helped establish.

[laughs] All right.

Enlighten me. Enlighten me.

Yeah, go ahead.

I do need a top journalist to walk me

through it, to explain what reality is.

You swooped in like

a bunch of vultures when I got sick.

You wasted no time at all.

Progresa seemed

like a typical company in hard times.

Your plan was to sell it.

To break it into smaller pieces,

and sell each of them off,

extracting everything you could

from the most profitable divisions.

The publisher, the channel,

the Latin American cable companies.

And continue making a lot of money,

which is clearly

the only concern of yours.

Yeah, well you don't have to

sound so disgusted by it.

Oh no, I'm not trying

to insult you right now.

To the contrary,

your interests are more than legitimate.

However, I don't think

that the ideological

and editorial direction of El Báltico

are included among them.

Yeah.

You very well could've come to me before

you felt obliged to ask me for this favor,

instead of the massive

sh*t-smearing campaign

you carried out

on the group's image and its value.

You see, the market

will stabilize and recover,

and the subscriptions will as well.

You see, markets do forget, but I don't.

We can get along, each in our own corner.

You and I don't have to be enemies.

-Yolanda, I really like you.

-And I really like you.

-[man] I really like you. Here.

-[Yolanda] Mwah, mwah!

-I've got something for you. Come here.

-No, I can't. I'm done.

-I can't keep up with you two.

-[man] Here. Here.

-[Lara] He's dangerous, this one.

-Come on, Yolanda.

[Yolanda] What?

Okay, just a bit, but it's the last one.

The last one.

Whatever you want.

-[Lara] Very last one.

-Yeah. Last one.

[club music playing faintly]

Ooh! This is making me all hot.

[laughs] Right?

[Lara] Hot, she says.

It's just making me super horny.

-You're making my sister horny.

-[man] It does, huh?

Not this guy. It's the Molly.

-Oh yeah, it's the Molly, Yolanda.

-Yeah, the Molly.

[Yolanda] Yolanda, the Molly. [giggles]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

-[Yolanda] Get it.

-[Lara] What?

[Yolanda giggles]

-So is he coming?

-[inhales]

I hope he does.

-Really?

-What?

-Go for it then.

-[Lara] What?

Go get León.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO COPY YOLANDA'S DEVICE?

COPYING CONTENTS OF YOLANDA'S DEVICE

INCOMING CALL: BABY

[phone rings]

I know what you think.

At my age, the best thing to do is

be free and experiment.

But all I really wanna do is

tell him I love him, you know?

That's it.

But I'm not doing that.

[chuckles]

Can you imagine?

I mean, sexually,

we have this amazing connection.

Incredible.

Really? [laughs]

BACKING UP CONTEN

-[knocks at door]

-What?

Hey, what, are you taking a sh*t?

I'll be right out, Lara. Jeez.

-[indistinct chatter]

-[club music continues]

It's like, of all the guys I've been with,

he's right up there.

-Uh-huh, like…

-Yeah.

-The top of the top, hey?

-At the top. At the top.

How many guys have you been with?

-Mm, I don't know.

-How many?

-An appropriate number.

-Appropriate, like what?

-Mm. I was 15 my first time.

-Fifteen was your first time?

Five or six a year.

That's each year? That's not…

Well, in America it was more like, um…

Over there, it was, um… 15… 20…

Mm. Well. [laughs]

What? Are you sl*t-shaming now?

No! No, no, no.

I'm just a little, um… um… jealous.

[laughs] That's all.

No, I just feel like I'm a loser.

Like, what the hell

have I done with my life?

Some might say I was doing it just because

I couldn't deal

with my father dying in the hospital, so…

Well, at least you were present.

I didn't even… I wasn't…

And now he's back,

and… and there's all this tension, and um…

[Lara] It's normal, isn't it?

Selling your channel

without consulting you.

With me, he's much softer.

[indistinct chatter]

You may have to stand up to him.

That's it.

Because… I don't know,

he can't do that to you.

You can't always be the good girl.

The more you bend over,

the more that your a*s shows.

[León] Oh man, I'm so frickin' high. Mm.

-[laughing]

-[León] I'm so gone.

What, what, what?

-Yolanda, do you like pink cocaine?

-Hmm?

-How about you? Actually, I don't care.

-[Yolanda] I don't want any.

-Yes, Yolanda!

-[Yolanda] No!

-Just a little.

-A little bit.

-[León] Have a little.

-Really, just a tiny bit.

[Yolanda] Less than that!

Less than that! Less…

-[sniffs] Yeah.

-[León] All right.

I know, sweetheart. This isn't any fun,

but we have to do it again

and again and again until you know it.

[sighs] I hate this.

"My parents still love me a whole bunch,

but they separated

so they wouldn't fight as much,

and now Mommy is living

at Grandma's house."

"The good thing is

I'm gonna get more birthday presents."

What are you talking about?

What do you think this is?

-[giggling]

-Don't overdo it!

No, listen, girls.

The important thing to remember

is that if no one asks you,

you don't have to say anything.

[tense music playing]

All right, but see, girls,

just think if this were really happening.

You wouldn't want to talk about it much.

Right?

-[Ruth] No.

-[girl 2] No.

Mama? Will you stay here

with us for breakfast?

Oh, honey, of course.

I'll be here all night.

-Give me a kiss?

-Yeah.

Sweetheart, good night.

Mm. I'll turn it off.

This is getting out of control.

No, I'd say we're well past that point.

I'm starting to think a fake divorce

may be more traumatic than a real one.

Not funny.

No, but… if you don't laugh

at my stupid jokes, I want a real divorce.

[chuckles]

[both sigh]

[Manuel] Okay. It'll all be all right.

Clearly you don't know her.

Because, from the beginning,

she said she didn't want anything serious.

Okay?

Anyway, Yolanda,

you and I only f*cked one time.

One time because I put a stop to it, Luis.

I see. So you got it all figured out.

No, no, no. I've got you figured out.

Oh yeah?

I've seen the way you're looking

I think you're thinking

Maybe we talk about…

And how great we are right now…

we'd be hurling things at each other.

Mm. Yeah, sure.

Speak a little bit louder.

I really like hearing you admit it.

[both laugh]

[in English] We're great.

You're right about that.

Ah.

[Federico] I don't care if he's a cop

I wanna know

who broke into Enrique's house.

-Do you understand?

-Morning, Dad.

[Federico] Did work run over?

A little. Am I in trouble?

No, no, no. You're right at that age

to go goof around.

Between you and me,

everything you do before the age of 30

has a get-out clause,

but… do be careful doing drugs.

I understand,

it's all right, you gotta experiment.

-But use your head, please.

-Yeah.

If you tell your mother I said that,

I'll never admit it.

[laughs]

All right then, go to bed.

No, wait a minute.

Sit down.

Here.

I've got something… I wanna say.

Uh… [laughs] I'm a little high.

-[Federico] A little?

-A little bit.

I just wanna say it now

because tomorrow I'm sure I won't do it.

Tell me.

I love you so much.

And I know you're screwed up, and…

and there's a bunch of fighting

now with your children,

with a lot of others too, right?

But Yolanda…

It's just that Yolanda

is an awesome woman.

And I think you have to give her a chance.

She's not what you may think,

and she doesn't deserve what you did.

Hey, if you'd done that to me…

I don't know, but, anyway,

if you and I… Tss…

If you and I end up like that one day,

remember today, Dad.

I know I'm high,

but it's true what I said.

That you love me?

Yes, and so does Yolanda. We both do, Dad.

We all love each other very much.

-Mm…

-Okay. Okay, come on. You go to bed.

[Lara sighs] Mm.

[sighs softly]

-[brakes squeak]

sh*t, León.

What a f*ck.

Hurry up, see what they say.

And don't let it happen again.

LETICIA BELMONTE

SOCIAL INTEGRATION CENTER

[man] Andrés Seligman

will now present his case.

[tense music continues]

Everyone who's present today knows

that the problems at El Báltico

are not of my doing

nor of the paper's editorial stance,

as suggested by a competitor's article.

It's not a competitor's article.

It is the opinion

of one of our original founders,

who appears to not have

a place at this newspaper.

It's the opinion of someone who has been

out of the editorial game for two years.

Well, it's easy… to come back and…

and sit there longing

for the good old days,

but a newspaper's also a business,

and the books have to balance.

But it seems like my father

no longer cares about the books,

as demonstrated clearly

by the drop in the group's stock price.

And he alone caused that with his article.

This all seems

like a typical inner-family squabble.

-And no one here really cares--

-[Andrés] No, forgive me.

But I will not stand here and be accused

of selling the very credibility

of El Báltico, no less.

And especially not

from a guy who… who has empowered

a certain party over many years

despite them being embroiled

in cases of corruption,

influence peddling,

and even state terrorism.

There have been a lot of tough decisions

made these last 40 years.

Questionable, I admit.

But all made after considering

what the ultimate greater good is.

Like now, you mean?

Who did you have in mind

when you published the article?

It certainly seems

like it wasn't the employees

working here in this department.

Think about them when you are voting.

Don't vote by inertia,

don't vote for… tradition,

or for loyalty to someone

who has betrayed us.

[man] Okay, if no one else

would like to speak,

let's proceed to voting

on the dismissal of Andrés Seligman.

I've got something to say

if you'll give me a minute.

I think what Andrés is saying

goes a bit beyond whether or not

we keep him in his current role.

It's being alleged very eloquently,

thank you, Andrés,

that Federico Seligman has made

deliberate acts

against the interests of Grupo Progresa.

So I'm sorry to say that

I find myself obliged to file

an official complaint here today

against Federico Seligman

for unfair administration,

which will be a matter

for the judges to decide.

You were just waiting

for the perfect opportunity to attack me?

Sorry to tell you,

but it's not gonna work.

El Báltico and Grupo Progresa

are not like your other companies.

-You see, here we still have principles.

-I second that motion.

[Aguirre] Shall we vote?

-Let's see how many allies you have left.

-[man] Fine.

All those who are

in favor of suing Federico Seligman

for his unfair administration…

raise your hand, please.

[tense music continues]

What is this?

What on earth are you doing?

This is what you get when you decide

to put your dim-witted daughter

in so many positions here.

Especially on the board.

'Cause in order to backstab,

you don't really need talent, Dad.

Let's see how you sell my channel now.

[Federico coughs]

[music intensifies]

The motion to sue Federico Seligman

has passed.

[Andrés] Aguirre!

-[woman 1] She's perfect.

-[woman 2] Yes.

[woman 1] You couldn't have chosen better.

The right profile. Let's hope she accepts.

Lupe. I'll tell her.

Why're you suing my dad?

And why wasn't I told?

Yeah, his face was something to see,

but… supporting me was enough.

You don't get it, do you, Andrés?

I don't want you here.

You have served your purpose.

You can't fire me now.

We didn't even vote.

No one is firing you. Okay?

Your contract's up in eight months,

and it simply won't be renewed.

Someone else much more qualified

is in the wings

who's got more reach than you

and actually deserves it more.

The best part is

there'll be no more family dramas.

Cheer up, Tito. You're a Seligman!

In the end, we decided

to put forward another name

for the ministry who'd be likely

more supported than Ibon.

Anyway… we've been working off…

off of a list of five or six names,

but we really all agree

that the one person who's most ideal is…

[laughs]

…is your mother.

She's perfect.

[sighs]

I don't know.

I'm not sure it's a good idea

to corner Federico like that.

So soon, anyway.

Share prices are going to fall.

That's for sure.

Indeed.

[Vargas] Anyway, money is

the least of our concerns here.

What's at stake here

is your government.
