02x06 - Reunion

[bunniefuu]

[Marco] Five days and I'm not sure
what my mission is.

PREVIOUSLY

Now that we know you might stay here,

I'm done helping you.

[Pedro]
I got you an audition for a musical.

You won't do it on Broadway yet,
but it's in New York.

We have the audition on Saturday.

-[Caterina] What is it?
-[reporter] Tell us.

-What is it?
-But what is this?

We have received information
that you were responsible

for the fire
at the Eleven O'Clock theater in 1994.

Do what you have to do.

[reporter] Cocó Sharp is waiting
at the police station

to make a statement before the judge.

I would love to get a postcard
from every city you visit.

What if you came on tour with us?

My mom sent you.

-Listen to me. It's not what you...
-Get out!

I want to buy this building.

That's in the middle of nowhere.

When I turn it into
a cultural space that attracts people,

the area's value will go up

and it'll become one of
the best neighborhoods in the city.

[bracelet whirring]

PREVIOUSLY

Marco?

Where have you been all this time?

-Wait, I know it's hard to understand.
-Hard?

How could you disappear like that?

-We all thought you were...
-Shh. Lower your voice, Diego.

No one can know I'm here.

-Are you kidding me?
-Calm down a bit, Diego.

We've been suffering for two months 'cause
we didn't know what happened to you.

Then you suddenly show up like this,
out of nowhere, at the event.

What event?

[rock music playing in distance]

We got together to commemorate you
on your birthday, Marco.

And you don't want anyone to know
you're here? What's up with you?

Please, trust me.

I can't believe that I'm back here.

Like before.

I missed you, my friend.

[sighs]

[door opens]

[door closes]

[rock music continues]

[laughs]

You're alive. [laughs]

I'm still mad though.

What did you do to your hair?

Um...

Why is that music playing?

I chose it.

Well, it's my birthday. I don't like it.

Well, I do.

I've been here this whole time.
You haven't.

-[passerby] Hi, Franco. It's been so long.
-[passerby 2] Franco, how are you?

Please, not today.
Be as mad as you want later. Shh.

INTERTWINED

Franco.

How are you? Okay?

Why don't you answer your phone?
I was calling you all morning.

-I'm busy.
-[Diego] Who's that?

My dad's business partner.
Shh. I need to know what happens.

Please, the investors are waiting to sign.
Shall we go?

They can wait. I'm not going.

You've been waiting 20 years
for this moment.

You finally have someone who wants
to invest in this abandoned building.

It's his big project,
what he wants most in the world.

What are you talking about?

He can't lose his drive.

I lost the most valuable thing in my life.

[sniffs] Nothing else matters to me.

[door opens, closes]

Don't you see how your dad is?
How can you not tell him you're back?

-No, I can't right now.
-Why not?

Because I don't know
how long I'll stay here.

The good thing is
I just realized why I came.

-To mess with me.
-No.

I came to give back what my dad lost.

You.

I need you to distract everyone.

Don't let them go in my room.

Anything else?

Would you like a soda and fries with that?

Please, Diego.
It's important. Fifteen minutes.

Ten.

[sighs]

[sighs]

-Hey. Hey. Where are you going?
-Hey.

-Uh, to get some fresh air.
-No.

No, no. No. No. No.

-[stammers] It's cold outside.
-Yeah.

Shall... Shall we sing?

-"We"?
-Yes.

I thought you and Dante were gonna sing.

Yes, Dante and I were going to sing,
but right now I was thinking...

Hmm.

And I thought that you could, uh, join us.

I didn't rehearse.

No! No, you don't... You're pure talent.
You don't need to rehearse.

What if we sang a nicer song?

We could, but this song is by... Marco!

Um, it's Marco's.
It's Marco's song, which I love.

Ah. I never liked it.

-No?
-Mmm.

Oh, um, all right.

Um...

Join us. Please, join us.

Say you will.

Okay, now we have to find...

Dante.

I'll look for him.

Hello.

How nice to...

I... I didn't think you were coming.

I noticed.

-No. No, it's not that...
-How could I not come?

I only got here now
because I just left the literary workshop.

-Ah.
-We're ready, okay?

Caterina.

Do you prefer to start solo,
or should I sing from the beginning?

Ah! [laughs] No, um...

It's just that we're, um...
we're going to do one of Marco's songs.

-Yes.
-And...

And, just now, I was thinking...

Uh, I thought to ask Greta
if she'd join us and you could join too.

Wanna join? Join us.

-Are you in?
-Oh, no, poor thing.

No, she'll feel obligated.

She hasn't sang in forever,
she won't remember the songs...

I remember.

-Of course I want to join.
-Mmm.

-Hey, Caterina. How are you?
-How's it going?

Uh, Diego, we're ready.

Let's go. We're... We're ready.

Uh, I'm going to tune...
tune my guitar, do stuff.

Do you know, just now in the workshop,
I studied antagonists in depth?

You're a great one.

I, on the other hand, prefer to leave
those clashes to literature.

[scoffs]

Hello.

I don't even know who this guy is.
Honestly, I came out of obligation.

[clicks tongue]

Oh, that looks good.

I'm very sorry.

What are you doing here?

Who let you in?

Franco, it's been 20 years.
I can't believe you're still angry.

[scoffs]

I'm not angry about that, Amelia.

I'm angry because if Marco hadn't been
involved in all that musical theater,

he'd be here...

[breathes shakily] ...with me.

What a shame.

After everything that happened,
you haven't understood a thing.

What do I need to understand?

What do I need to understand?

That sometimes parents get it wrong.

Come on. Come in closer, please.

Let me hear my son's song, please.

[Diego] Um, okay. Hello.

Uh... Come on, come on.

Come in closer. Don't be shy.

-[sniffs, clears throat]
-[Diego] This...

Well, this song is by Marco.
And we're going to celebrate his memory.

This is so he can hear us,
wherever he may be.

[song ends]

[cell phone rings in distance]

[Mike] Pedro Alcaraz.
It's been so long. How are you, my friend?

Good. Very good, very good.

I don't know what business idea
you've got this time,

but I assure you I'm booked
for the rest of the year.

Okay.

The theater?

I can be there in 15 minutes or so.

[cell phone beeps]

[wings fluttering]

[door opens]

[Pedro] I just spoke with Mike.

I'm meeting with him in,
I don't know, five minutes.

Oh, I don't know, Pedro.
What if it doesn't work out?

You know I don't want to be implicated.

Forget that. It's not going to happen.

Plus, don't forget that,
with the money I'll make on this tour,

I'll produce a show
so you can play your first lead role.

But you're sure they'll believe it, right?

Totally.

Tomás had plenty of motives.

He was risking everything
and had made a huge investment.

Plus, he knew that, without Caterina,
the tour would fail.

But here's the best part. Look.

Do you see that? There's the evidence.

[chest closes]

Let's go. He's on his way. Come.

[door closes]

To finance the show,

I had to go into debt.

-How much?
-A lot.

Can I tell you something? Sometimes
I don't know if it would be better

to run a bulldozer over the theater,

collect the insurance and be done with it,
you know?

-No. No, no, no. Not that.
-Yes, yes, yes.

Don't worry, Dad.

They'll never find this evidence.

And every time someone asks me,
I'll say it wasn't you.

No one will sully your name.

[Dante] Do you know I like writing?

-Really?
-Yes.

-Ah.
-Besides drumming...

I was thinking,

for an amateur singer
who's focused on writing...

you didn't do so bad.

[sighs]

You, once you realize how talented you are
and you stop picking fights,

will be a great lead actress.

Nice job on the song.

Hey. A-Are you okay?

-No! Uh...
-[Dante] What happened?

Yes.

Uh, I don't know. I'm kind of, mmm... Uh...

Oh, sorry. Uh...

Wa-Wait, Diego. I'll come too.

-No.
-Yes.

No. I want to be alone, with myself. Uh...

I'll be right back. [chuckles]

[car door opens, closes]

[car engine starts]

Hey!

What are you doing?

Um, I have to go.

[laughs] No. No.
You're going to stay here and explain.

It's a long story.

The only thing I'll say is that I'm fine.

I'm with Laura.

Laura also survived?

Yes. We're together.

[sighs]

I promise that, one day,
you'll understand this.

For now, you'll have
to keep this a secret, Diego. Please.

What?

No. No. No, you can't ask that of me.

You saw your dad, you saw your friends.
What more do you want?

The last time I asked you for help,
the night of the fire,

you didn't let me stay
at the record store.

I know that. I know. And you don't know
how bad I've felt about it all this time.

-Exactly. Now you have another chance.
-[sighs]

Can I count on you?

Ah, and next time,
don't do such a loose version of my song.

[Diego chuckles]

I don't think I'll be coming
to your next birthday.

Diego.

The song was really nice. Thanks so much.

No, please.

Is it bad if I think
he'll come back someday?

No, it's not bad.

Hmm.

-I think the same sometimes.
-[both chuckle]

Franco.

-Whatever you need.
-[Caterina] I hope it's a success. Okay.

Always.

-[Caterina] We'll talk later.
-I know.

[Caterina] Right.
I hope you have a spectacular time.

Okay. Bye, girls. Nice to see you.

-You're leaving?
-Yes. I'm meeting some workshop friends.

Ah.

We can sort out the percentages
before signing the contract, Mike.

Pedro, you're not getting something.

I don't need an associate producer
to do the Freaky Friday tour.

[laughs] No, you're the one
who's not getting it.

If I don't partner with you,

you have no lead, you have no tour,
you have nothing.

Dear Pedro, you're extorting me.

You'll need much more
than your word, okay?

Well, I have it.

I have it.

There are some VHS tapes that show
Cocó Sharp setting the theater on fire.

If you don't want me to go to the police...
And you know what'll happen if I do.

They'll come in five minutes,
raid the place

and arrest your lead actress.

What do you prefer?

I want to see them.

[laughing] Okay.

[recorder clicks, whirs]

I don't understand. How...

I understand. Those VHS tapes don't exist.

Yes, they do! Of course. They show Cocó.

They show her... her wristwatch
as she cuts the wires.

-[Mike] Ah.
-[Pedro] Yes.

Wow, how nice. And why did she leave
so much evidence to be found?

I don't know. She must've thought
the upper camera wasn't filming.

Cocó Sharp always thinks of everything.

Plus, let's say what you're saying
about the camera is true.

It's evident that someone framed her.

Who framed her?

Someone who must hate her a lot, right?

Excessively, to take revenge that way.

It was you.

You set the theater on fire.

Okay, yes! Yes, it was me. So what?

What did you want me to do, huh?

Cocó betrayed me.

She partnered with Tomás.
They left me out of Eleven O'Clock.

That company was ours.

We dreamed it up together 20 years ago!

And she took everything.

I got Cocó her first audition.

I asked her to come with me to New York.

Cocó is what she is, thanks to me.

And look how she repaid me.
She left me with nothing.

You know I could go to the police
with this.

Yes, of course. But it doesn't serve you,
so you won't. You have no proof.

It's your word against mine.

That's true.

The reality is that an investigation
is in no one's best interest.

Let's do this instead.

Leave everything as is.

They can keep thinking it was Tomás,
and Tomás... is no longer here.

[in English] By the way...

[in Spanish] ...if you want some tickets...
[in English] ...for free, just call me.

[in Spanish] Bye-bye.

[clicks]

What do you think?

About what?

I don't know. About Laura.
About Marco. About everything.

[exhales] Ah.

I don't know. I don't know. Yeah, yeah.

I'm more lost than ever now.

Now? Why?

No, no. No reason. Nothing. Nothing.

I don't know, but I... miss Laura.

We didn't spend much time together,

I know that... [sighs]

...but I think, somehow,
our paths will cross again.

It's in the cards for us.

-[laughs] I'm in workshop mode!
-What?

No, I'm sorry. You must think I'm crazy.

-No, no.
-Yes.

I don't think you're crazy at all.

And you? Everything's good?

Good, good. Um...

Just getting ready for the tour.

-Yes. It's soon. You leave in a week?
-Yes. Soon, yeah.

-Soon.
-Soon.

-And the writing... the workshop?
-Good. Very good. Very good.

I'm learning a lot from Oliverio

about how to give each character
a life of its own...

[continues, muffled]

[no audible dialogue]

[normal audio] It's incredible.

You're incredible.

Do you still want me
to send a postcard from each tour stop?

Another thing I learned in the workshop
is that when a chapter ends...

it doesn't make sense
to try to stretch it out.

[door opens, closes]

[sighs]

Hey.

Hey, friend. Hey.

-Are you okay?
-Yes.

[Diego sighs]

[rock music playing on speakers]

[Greta] We're alone now.

People are still here.

I didn't mean that.

The same thing happened to me with Marco.

When he left with Laura.

What do you mean?

Just because it looks like I don't care
doesn't mean I don't care.

Goodbyes are never easy.

[sighs]

How did you forget about him?

I don't know if it's possible
to forget someone you still love.

So, what then?

Then you do the only thing you can,

which is to move forward.

That's it.

And hope that every day
it hurts a little bit less.

Exactly.

[music continues]

[sighs]

[bracelet whirring]

[dog barks in distance]

[groaning]

[metal scraping]

[clink]

[estate agent]
Later, I'll bring the clients

so we can sign the remaining papers.

-Is everything ready?
-Yes.

Yes, I still have to take things
out of that room, that's it.

But, well, everything will be ready.

-Okay. We'll be in touch.
-Of course.

-See you later.
-See you later.

[door opens, closes]

I think that this is from many years ago,
the process is very long.

-And, well, Cocó says she's innocent.
-Diego, can I ask you a favor?

-Yes.
-No more talking about Cocó.

-Thanks.
-It's better.

It's better so we have more time to...
to talk about us.

I brought you something.

-What?
-I hope it surprises you.

What did you bring?

The postcards.

-No.
-[laughs]

I know. I know we'd agreed
that I wasn't going to send them to you.

-But, well, I wrote them and saved them.
-[mumbling]

Look. [French accent] Paris.

You're crazy.

[normal voice] It was really good
for me to write them

and think someday I'd give them to you.

I spent hours trying to pick...

[dog barks]

[Allegra] I couldn't sleep all night.

I was looking at what people were saying
about Cocó on social media.

Well, if it makes you feel bad, why do it?

Because I can't avoid it.
At the end of the day, she's my grandma.

Anyway, it's done. Everyone has to be
responsible for their actions.

-Exactly.
-Hmm.

Now you have to think of yourself.

Yes.

And that makes me feel worse.

Why?

Because we had everything set up.

We were going to premiere,
then go to Madrid.

That was the opportunity
to create my career abroad.

Now I don't have anything.

You have me.

Thank you.

For everything.

For your support, your patience.

For helping me
with this time travel thing.

Both me and Marco,
even though he's not your favorite person.

You're the best.

Um, Allegra, I... I need to tell you that...

that...

that if you want to be
a musical theater star,

don't give up, keep fighting.

Yes. Well, it's a bit hard without Cocó.

But not impossible.

Perhaps it'll be a bit more complicated,

but if you keep lying in bed,
you won't achieve anything.

You're right.

-As always.
-Hmm.

Uh... Do you have
the Spanish producers' phone number?

Yes, why?

Because I have videos from rehearsals
and the night of the premiere.

Hmm.

If you send it to them, maybe they will
keep you in mind for their future shows.

No. No, no, no.
I'm not looking for something just for me.

Cocó, Mom, and I started this.
It's a family project.

So we have to finish it together.

Yes, but your grandma isn't here.

No.

But I can still do something.

[kisses]

Thanks.

See ya!

-Bye.
-[footsteps departing]

[door opens]

-[Allegra] Mom?
-[door closes]

-Allegra.
-Mom.

Uh, I was just here with... with Diego.

Hi.

[Caterina laughs]

Okay. We have to keep Light Years going.
You and me.

We can't give up.

Uh...

[laughs]

That's really hard.
Cocó is one of the leads.

You can play that role.

-I totally agree.
-[Allegra chuckles]

-Are you crazy?
-Why?

No. No, no, no. It's been years since...
since I've been on a stage. No.

Plus, my name's not the same as Cocó's.

[sighs]

No. No. Forget the musical.

You said it yourself,
we have to move forward.

No.

Well, I was just leaving.
I'll leave the fold... the postcards.

-I'll go with you.
-Bye.

Hello, I'm Allegra Sharp.

Please keep me in mind
for future auditions.

I've attached my videos.
Thank you.

Email Sent

Pedro? Cocó's friend?

Why?

Cocó and Pedro were business partners,

and she betrayed him
when she partnered with Tomás

and left Pedro out of Eleven O'Clock.

That's why he set the theater on fire?

Yes, and he set everything up
to make it seem like Cocó did it.

That way, he was able to extort Mike
so that he could keep the tour.

But the security camera recordings
he was going to use disappeared.

Bárbara.

And how do we prove it?

[clicks]

[Mike]
It was you. You set the theater on fire.

[Pedro]
Okay, yes! Yes, it was me. So what?

What did you want me to do, huh?

Cocó betrayed me.

[clicks]

[birds chirp]

[sighs]

[Allegra] Cocó?

[footsteps approaching]

What are you doing here?

[Franco] A bit of paint will fix it.

So, okay, we'll be in touch.
Call me if you need anything.

Talk to you later, okay?

Thanks very much.

-[estate agent 1] Thank you.
-When can I send the painters?

I'm moving out tomorrow.

I can stop by the agency
and leave the keys on my way out.

-Sound good?
-[estate agent 1] Great.

[Franco] Perfect. Thank you very much.

[footsteps departing]

I can't believe it.

All these years I thought it was Tomás.

And in the end...

Where did you get that recording?

Um, Félix found it.

He was looking through things
he took from the theater

when we went to see Bárbara,
and there it was.

What I don't understand is,
who recorded that conversation?

Why did they not show it before?

Surely it was Mike who needed to have it
so Pedro wouldn't extort him.

What will happen to our theater?

It will remain closed
until the investigation is finished.

I'm sorry for not trusting you.

What most bothers me
isn't that you accused me of that crime,

but that you thought I was stupid enough

to leave my watch on
in front of the security cameras.

Either way, you changed the script.

I'm only apologizing about the fire.

Nothing else.

Do you really think I did it for me?

You do everything for you.

You're wrong.

I don't need to go to Spain
to reach the next level.

I've won public and critical acclaim
long ago.

At this point, Caterina,
I don't need to prove anything to anyone.

Then why did you do it?

For you.

Don't you want to travel the world
and be a musical theater star?

Well, Spain was your first stop.

And you did it behind our backs,
as always.

Without worrying or caring about
what we thought.

I know my actions can be questionable.

Yes.

But everything I do is for our family.

I don't want to lose you two again.
