01x05 - Episode 5

Post by bunniefuu »

We're nearly there.

You'll see. It's like a city.

Well, no.

It's like a small town with lots of kids.

And more arrive all the time.

We have a great time together

and we all look after each other.

Right, Luci?

But don't think we aren't going to study.

You have to study math, English

You'll miss walls at first,

but it's better than nothing.

Cornelia, you're very quiet, aren't you?

Did you like the book? I have a lot more.

And in the library

they give us new ones every month.

Sometimes we make hot chocolate

at my place. And there's candy.

Do you guys like chocolate?

Where are you off to?

You'll see. There are lots of kids.

Come on, everyone out.

Come on.

Come on.

Luci, don't let the smaller ones

get distracted.

We have to give them clean clothes.

Are you staying in there?

Come on, don't be stubborn.

I don't care if you come or not.

But you'll want to eat, right?

Where did you learn English?

I know you've had a tough time. I know.

But we're all friends here.

And there are lots of kids

who want to play with you.

If you don't want to play

and prefer to read, that's okay too.

Don't be scared.

Come down when you're ready.

Come on.

Come on, this is your home.

Look, you can get food there

Hey!

Is this yours?

I like to read too.

What's your name?

Cornelia.

Cornelia.

I'm Tábata.

You've just arrived, right?

If you need anything, that's my house.

And that's my car.

Come on.

Did you hurt yourself?

Goodbye, Cornelia.

It was an accident. You saw.

Right? You saw it, it was an accident.

I don't know what happened.

We have to go to the station.

We can't.

Rosario says they're all going there.

All of them.

They're coming for us. They'll k*ll us.

So what do we do, Teo?

Stay here watching the rain?

I don't know,

but we can't go to the station.

This is crazy.

The same people that were after Jordán

now want us too.

Forget them. Nothing's going to happen.

In an hour we'll go

to the forensic lab in Granada.

We'll do the paperwork

and that'll be that.

Okay, look. You stay at home.

I'll take care of this.

We should both stay home

and rewind, like it never happened.

- Right. But it did happen, Teo.

- But it was a f*cking accident.

You saw. It was an accident.

I didn't see anything.

What do you mean? You must have.

You must I don't know what happened.

As I got my weapon out

My fingers were stiff

and I don't know what happened.

The g*n just went off.

I swear I don't know what happened.

What about Carmen?

She's all I can think about.

Why don't you tell me what's up?

- What's up with what?

- With her, Teo.

Don't ask me that again.

Carmen!

Carmen!

Carmen!

Stop!

Stop!

What's up, buttercup?

I see you've adapted well,

even though you still don't want to talk.

Don't you want to talk to me?

Yes. I've brought you something.

Over here! Over there!

Over here!

That's better. You have a beautiful smile.

What matters is that you're well.

Here. So that we can be good friends.

"Vampires on Walpurgis."

I've never been much of a reader,

but I was a good student.

I had a good memory.

Do you like it?

You're the smartest girl

in the whole camp.

Well, I'll let you get on with

your chores.

One day you'll tell me

where you learned to read English so well.

Okay? Bye-bye, buttercup.

St. Christopher, you have it.

St. Christopher of love.

St. Christopher, you know.

St. Christopher, I'm sorry.

St. Christopher, you're everyone's.

St. Christopher, I know.

Cornelia, don't you ever speak?

They might want to hear you. In English.

With that accent of yours.

f*ck.

- What's up?

- Not much.

- What have you got?

- These are the girls.

Where are we?

I don't know.

Cornelia, you'll see that it's all fine.

It's just the shock of seeing blood.

Isn't that right, Luci?

What matters now is to get to camp,

so you can rest and get a good sleep.

A long sleep.

I have some gummies

that will help you sleep and not think.

f*ck, and that guy

won't get away with it, I'm telling you.

You're behaving very well, Cornelia.

They speak very highly of you.

Anyway.

It's over.

Can I sit here?

With you?

Or here.

Or here.

Or maybe here.

No. Better yet

Here.

Do you like what you're reading?

I know a story too.

- A story?

- Well

It's not exactly a story.

But you might like it.

Right there, just over there

There's a tree.

You can't see it.

But it's right there.

A very old, wise tree.

With a very old trunk, like

Like the tree we're sat on.

It's a tree that can travel.

The tree travels?

Yes. It's a tree that moves.

It's a sacred tree.

But it can't speak,

although it has many names.

Because it has many branches.

This camp and these people

are just one small branch.

It has many more.

Many people, many creatures.

Creatures that are difficult to see.

It also has roots.

Very deep roots, of very old things.

And a huge trunk.

A trunk that looks like a dancing giant.

This tree is wonderful.

One day, some men arrived from a sawmill

to cut it down,

and keep the tree for themselves.

Men are very selfish.

But a group of people decided

to get together to protect the tree,

and they learned to move it.

To move it as it moved.

But the sawmill men

didn't give up.

They continued searching, and searching

And searching.

In reality, there it is.

Right here.

I liked the story.

I'm glad.

You can come here whenever you want,

and sit and look at the tree.

But you can't tell anyone.

It's a secret.

Why don't you ever eat? I noticed that.

You always leave your food.

Don't you like eating?

I don't like it, no.

I prefer to give it to the dogs.

Dogs have forgotten how to hunt.

If I don't feed them, who will?

Can I feed the dogs?

I'm sure you can, but

You should save some for yourself.

You have to be very strong.

- No. Carmen, don't, please.

- Let me through.

Don't make any more trouble.

Can't you see the mess?

They're my son and husband. Open it.

Carmen

Let me through.

No, Carmen. No, please!

- No, please, Carmen.

- What have you done? Leave me be!

Do you want to k*ll me?

Is that what you want?

- Stop!

- Do you want to k*ll me?

Out!

Let go of me!

I want to see my child, please!

I want to see my child!

- Let me see him.

- I can't, Carmen.

I can't.

Please.

We're going to the coroner's office

in Granada with Josué. We'll take Jordán.

I want to see him, please.

- I understand, but I can't.

- Just for a moment.

I'm sorry, Carmen.

Oh, my God!

Carmen, you need to tell me

about the girl.

Who was she?

Who was she?

- Did you see her?

- I don't know.

- Did you see her or not?

- I don't know. Stop asking me.

I want to see him.

This place is a sh*thole.

It was an accident. I was there.

If you don't believe Teodoro, believe me.

Teodoro

Did you know?

Did you know that Teodoro

tried to hook up with his sister? Did you?

How are you?

Teodoro has never been right in the head.

How's Carmen?

What the f*ck are you doing?

Let go of me!

What happened between you two?

He's not said a word.

You're very smart.

Let go of me!

f*cking let go of me!

- Why didn't you tell me?

- Why didn't I tell you what?

Why didn't you tell me?

Let go of me!

You know what happened.

Why didn't you tell me he was your son?

Do you want to live?

It's okay. Come here.

Come here.

Am I dreaming?

No.

Don't worry.

I'm not going to hurt you.

Do you want to live?

Come here.

Drink.
