01x34 - Un padre extraño

[bunniefuu]

IN MEMORY OF HUGO GONZÁLEZ CORTEZ

REMEMBERED FOR HIS POLICEMAN CAREER

Poor Hugo.

He had his whole life ahead of him.

[Ramírez]

You shouldn't be walking around, boss.

You're supposed to be dead.

Who do you think you are

to tell me what to do, huh?

I have twice your experience, Ramírez.

Well, I'm just telling you

that things at the precinct

are very tense right now.

Hey.

That's exactly why this is

the last time we're meeting.

Hugo is gone for good.

- [Ramírez] Boss, what about the girl?

- Well, she'll go with her dad, aka me.

- And I'm not your boss anymore.

- All right.

- Mr. Hugo.

- I'm telling you that Hugo is dead.

You're slow, aren't you?

I don't know what to call you.

What are you up to over there?

The best part of this damn newspaper

the crossword puzzle.

He wasn't a fair man.

He was the perfect man for his time.

That's what the Bible says.

Another mystery solved.

God told Noah to save himself.

Him and his family.

To build a ship.

There's still a lot of work to be done.

It was a pleasure, Ramírez.

And thank you for the girl.

She'll be good for me.

Take care.

Any news?

What have you heard about Olivia Serrano?

Nothing, sir.

We haven't heard anything yet.

What do you mean?

What have your men been doing?

Well, we have several cases

and there's a lot of work.

Okay, listen.

That woman is a menace to society.

Do what you have to do.

[Chief] Don't worry.

We will be watching your daughter.

It doesn't matter she's my daughter!

Do what you have to do regardless.

- Do you hear me?

- Yes, sir.

Find her!

Stupid brat.

You're not even my own blood.

I won't go down because of you.

Damn it, Olivia, answer me!

Where's your dad?

Tell me,

is Hugo Gonzalez related to your dad?

Hugo González

supposedly died 25 years ago.

Why does he appear and disappear?

Why is he always running away?

I was a normal guy, a mellow guy.

It was Flor who betrayed me.

She's to blame for

What the f*ck were you doing yesterday

with Hugo González?

[sobs]

It can't be.

It can't be.

This can't be.

It has to be a coincidence, right?

A NETFLIX SERIES

You never met Hugo.

Nothing is coincidental with him.

He calculates everything.

So then,

he made up his name

with the letters from "Reynosa's Butcher"?

- That's what I think.

- That's pretty cynical.

So, if Serrano is a fake surname, then

what is Olivia's real surname?

Does she know about all this?

I don't know.

And, according to you, she's missing.

What the hell do we do now?

We investigate.

You have priceless information there.

We have to finish Leonora's work.

I won't stay here

like a fool in front of the computer.

We have to find Olivia, wherever she is.

She's the only clue we have

to get to her dad.

And you think she'll tell you?

I don't know.

But she's the only one

who knows how to get to him.

[phone buzzes]

- Damn it.

- [Ricardo] I told you it wasn't worth it.

Olivia must be far away from here by now,

escaping, just like her dad.

In fact, she was supposed to work today.

Do you think we'll never see her again?

It's probable.

It can't be.

Olivia wouldn't leave me like this.

Not everything is about you, Poncho.

We need a contact in the police,

someone who would allow us

No, Leonora was

the only one trustworthy in there.

You have no idea what I've done for you!

You have no idea what I've moved,

what I risked for you.

I got in trouble with him because of you.

- With whom?

- With my dad.

Olivia was always on our side.

I know where we have to go. Let's go.

But you can't make me go.

Oh, of course not, honey.

I won't make you.

All I want is to have

the opportunity to take care of you.

We're taking good care of her here, ma'am.

I know

and I thank you deeply,

but, in a moment like this,

Rosario needs her family.

Who'd take care of her

better than her mom?

I'll wait for you outside, honey.

Please, don't take too long

because we have a flight to catch.

Thanks.

[attendant]

Can I help you, Miss?

You want to fill the tank?

I can do it.

It's impossible.

She turned her cell phone off.

It's clear she's avoiding us.

Are you sure this is a good idea?

No.

Honestly? It's just a hunch.

Good afternoon, Miss.

We're firefighters

from Firehouse Raúl Padilla Arellano.

Yesterday, one of your officers came by,

a young woman,

and I wanted to see

if you could help us find her.

I need to speak to her.

Alfonso Quiroga.

I want to hug you so badly, but

I'll give you a good cuddle

when you get back.

Which will be soon, okay?

I left you my hair dryer there,

so you don't take it behind my back.

You better get well soon, huh?

Otherwise, I myself

will bring you back and I don't care

if your mom calls the police.

[sobbing] I'll miss you a lot, dude.

I really will.

Why do you say that, huh?

- Now I won't be able to stop crying.

- [all chuckle]

You have to call me every day, okay?

To tell me everything

and to tell me

how things are going with Gerardo.

So that we keep crying?

No, we should tell jokes

and superficial gossip.

Yeah.

[Glorita] Sweetheart.

You're doing what's best.

Believe me, sometimes parents

make decisions that aren't

the best, and sometimes we're wrong.

But everything we do,

we do it thinking about our children.

This decision that your mom is making,

and that's breaking all our hearts,

she's making it because she loves you.

You won't rent my room out

to anyone, right?

Of course not.

Your room will be yours,

and it will be here,

waiting as long as you need.

I don't want you to leave sad.

Hey.

If something happens to me,

remember me

as a b*tch with long hair.

Okay?

Nothing bad's going to happen.

I love you very much.

I'm going to miss you.

Thanks for everything.

- Bye.

- That's everything.

I'll help you.

- Hello.

- Hello.

One strong coffee, no sugar, please.

Long trip, huh?

It's 210.

sh**t, it didn't go through.

- What?

- Do you want me to run it again?

That's weird. It should have money.

I have cash in the car as well.

Hey, no! Hey!

Hey!

Wait!

f*cking broad.

I don't want to, I don't want to.

Me neither.

But you have the best doctors there.

But I don't have you.

I promise you

I'll go visit you as soon as I can.

Hey.

You have to take care of the restaurant,

so we can open it together

when I come back, okay?

- Sounds good?

- Sounds good.

When they told me I was sick,

I thought that my life had gone to hell.

But, if I had to go through all this,

then, welcome, sickness,

because the cancer will go to hell.

But you?

You will stay

- with me.

- Yes.

[Rosario's mom] Honey.

It's time. Airplanes don't wait.

I love you.

I'll be right back. I have to

Julián.

Hey, just letting you know that Rosario

just left for Guadalajara with her mom.

So, why are we meeting here?

What's with all the mystery?

It's safer here.

There are too many eyes

and ears at the precinct.

That's something I learned from Leonora.

I heard this morning

they sent one of my colleagues

to investigate one of Leonora's suspects.

Olivia Serrano.

Why are they watching her?

Who gave that order?

All I know is that he's been posted

to watch her building's door

and there's another officer

at the fire station,

dressed as a civilian.

So, I'm sure you've already seen him

without realizing it.

Leonora always thought

that Olivia wasn't a criminal,

but a victim.

[cell phone rings]

I'm sorry, I have to go.

I have your phone number.

We'll be in touch.

I'll keep you informed.

[Ricardo clears throat]

I thought you were going to tell her

what you've discovered.

I don't trust anybody.

If we're going to solve this, we'll do it

on our own, without anybody else.

Whatever it takes.

If we're gonna do this,

it has to be quick.

During the shift turnover.

Okay, but what are we're going to do?

- Where do you want to take him, Julián?

- To his house, dumbass.

He just told us that he hates hospitals.

If we leave him here, he'll die.

He won't die.

They're taking good care of him.

Plus, he'll get better here.

Come on.

Molina won't get better.

He won't walk again.

So, make up your mind

because I've already made mine.

I'm in, man.

Look, Molina,

I, I don't agree with this, but

it's you, so count me in.

Life is too short

to spend it in a hospital, man.

But how? Won't it hurt if

if we move you?

Dude, I can't feel anything

from the waist down.

- If it hurts, I won't notice.

- Oh, yeah.

I love you, f*ck.

[footsteps approach]

- Hi.

- [Julián] Hi.

I didn't know you were here.

We're leaving, but yes.

I'll stay with you tonight.

Sorry to intrude, but it's just that

- I think he needs to be alone for a bit.

- Yeah, he just

- He just kicked us out.

- It's what he needs.

We get it, because there's a lot of things

you need to think about.

- Totally.

- By yourself.

But it's not good for you to be alone.

Doctor's orders.

So you can think?

The psychiatrist.

The one who's treating the trauma.

He came and told him that.

Molina wanted to be alone.

- He's still insisting on that?

- He said the psychiatrist recommended it.

He needs to think.

That's weird.

What is?

I think the recommendation is weird.

What are you trying to say?

That, in moments like this,

what he needs the most is support.

Please, don't treat me

like I'm a f*cking idiot.

You're obviously implying Molina

made up an excuse not to be with me.

Gaby, I'm not implying anything.

Because, sure, if you had gone there,

Molina would've welcomed you

with open arms, right?

- What's your problem, Gaby?

- No, dude. What's yours?

I'm not trying to compete

for Molina's attention.

[chuckles] But it looks like you are.

The psychologist does a behavior analysis.

Very cool.

[scoffs]

One very cold beer, please.

Hey, you're thirsty.

[sighs]

- Do I know you?

- Not yet.

I see what I've been missing.

- What?

- Well

Your attitude and the way you drink

really caught my attention.

Oh, yeah?

That's nice, right?

You can buy me the second one, then.

I've never met a girl as young as you

who drank like a man.

[scoffs]

You don't know many women, then.

Not many come here.

Why don't you go out, then?

You do realize there's a whole world

going on out there, don't you?

What for?

I have you in here.

- Where's the bathroom?

- That way.

Thanks.

What the f*ck is your problem?

I was checking the merchandise, baby.

[siren blares]

[sighs]

Get out of the car, please.

What happened?

Routine check.

You were driving at 137 km/h.

My license.

- What?

- You need to come with us, Olivia Serrano.

Well, my mom told me

that she prefers to stay there, in prison,

rather than being free.

And I really don't

- I don't understand.

- Well, it's

That's more common than you think, Pe.

I imagine that, in prison, she

she feels like they're all equal.

Not like out here,

where our differences show.

Especially prejudices.

But I couldn't care less about prejudice.

I mean, I'd be there

to defend her from anything.

Yes, yes, I'm sure of that.

But things always look easier

from the outside.

Think about how difficult it would be

for her to come back to the world.

At least,

prison is a familiar place for her,

where people don't judge her.

I don't know what to do.

Don't worry. We'll help her. Both of us.

I know many organizations

that take care of that precisely,

of women whose freedom was taken away,

and I will put you two in touch with them.

Thanks.

You've done so much for her.

For her

and for you.

Hold on, hold on.

- Hold on.

- What?

What happened with that little speech

about how love doesn't exist?

And that they just invented it

to make couples

and procreate. Huh?

Don't take me too seriously.

Lately, even I don't believe

half the things I say, either.

Okay?

Don't listen to me.

Julián.

- What happened?

- What?

Did you forget or what?

- What?

- About Molina.

If we're doing it,

we have to do it now.

Okay, hold on. Go and get the car.

I'll see you outside in a minute.

Hold on to them. I'll see you in a minute.

Everything will be okay, right? They won't

put us in jail for kidnapping a sick man?

He's Molina, your friend.

Are you gonna leave him there?

- No.

- No. Then, go! I'll meet you outside.

[Mayte sighs]

I'm not crying over Gerardo.

I wasn't going to ask why you were crying.

So, you should keep walking, right?

Is it "let's look at Fabio cry" day

or what?

Do you think they'll come back?

Gerardo won't. He won't come back.

Forget it. He hates me.

Rosario.

Well, I guess so.

When she feels better, she'll be back.

[sobbing] I mean that

What if she doesn't get better?

What if something happens

and we don't see her again?

I didn't know

you were afraid of that, too.

But, hey. She'll be back.

She will feel better.

And she'll be back before I finish

this dress that I'm knitting for her.

When did everything go to sh*t?

Everything was going well.

It was perfect, and suddenly

They say that when

a door opens a window closes?

- How was it?

- The other way around, silly.

The point is that the door is closed

and I don't see any window opening.

They lied to us.

Perhaps it's up to us to open it.

[scoffs] I can barely even

hold the needle correctly.

Opening a window

feels like climbing Mount Everest.

Then try.

I'll try.

And don't worry. It won't be with Gera.

Get me out of here.

Nobody is arrested for speeding.

We know what we're doing,

and be thankful

we didn't do an alcohol test on you,

because that beer stink

is coming out of your pores, girl.

- Don't you call me girl.

- [officer] We can call you

whatever we feel like here, little brat.

Get me out. Please, I beg you.

We also decide that.

You'd better be quiet because

we can use anything you say against you.

[sighs]

[footsteps approach]

Close it, close it. All right.

- Here we are.

- All right.

Let's go.

We found out when

the nurse shift turnover is. It's at 11.

That means we have to leave

in exactly 40 minutes.

You have to get me out of here

no matter what. Okay?

- We brought you clothes.

- We should take the firefighter teddy.

- Yes, yes, please.

- We'll put it away.

Do we have to take the IV?

- No!

- Okay, no.

Okay, okay.

- Trainers?

- [Julián] Yeah, that, too.

- Help me get up, please.

- Yeah, coming.

- Hold on.

- Are you all right?

But we have to Up.

It's pointless, Poncho.

Olivia won't answer.

Look at this.

These are all the places

where Noé lived in the last 25 years.

Oddly enough,

there is nothing before that.

They're all from the late '90s.

[Ricardo]

Colima, 2002, Oaxaca, 2005,

Morelia, 2007.

Up until he settled in Puebla, 2011.

According to the records,

all the properties are under his name.

So, he must be at one of these.

I doubt he's been hotel hopping

for his whole life.

Who knows. It's just

If the police has his back

I didn't know

about this investigative side of yours.

[chuckles]

Me neither.

I guess I learned from watching Daniel

do all that reporting.

Do you miss him?

A lot.

You're so smart, Poncho.

I'm very proud of you.

[Poncho clears throat]

[scoffs] Will you ever

accept my complimenting you like

any father would?

I don't know.

In the orphanage, I only had nuns

who treated me like an as*h*le

and said

I'd never accomplish anything in life.

And, as for a father

I never had one.

That's not true.

I wasn't around,

but you always had one.

Captain, someone's here for Poncho.

- Yes, Officer?

- I decided to come instead of calling you.

I have some important information

to give you.

What is it?

I found out who pressured my colleagues

to keep an eye on Olivia.

That person even asked them

to arrest her if necessary.

Who? Who was it?

Noé Serrano.

Her own father.

And that's not all. Right now,

Olivia is detained

in a police station in Morelia.

[sighs, sobs]

Please, what you're doing is ill*gal.

Get me out of here.

I'm thirsty!

[Olivia]

I'm not ready yet.

Why not?

What else needs to happen

for you to tell me the truth?

I need to understand my own life.

I don't even know who I am.

[Hugo] Hello, hello.

Surprise.

No.

Don't look at me like that.

This punishment

is supposed to help you learn not to stick

your nose where it doesn't belong.

Like when you were a child.

Remember?

- I'm here because of you?

- No.

Let's say

your attitude made it pretty easy.

What were you thinking, leaving

a gas station without paying, Olivia?

Or driving under the influence of alcohol?

Get me out of here. I demand it.

You won't demand sh*t.

I'm the father. You're the daughter.

- Your place is to obey.

- Get me out of here now!

We'll talk first.

A father-daughter chat.

Didn't you like to talk and talk

and talk so much?

What for?

You're just a liar.

Don't be disrespectful

towards your father!

I know you're Poncho's godfather.

Well, well, well.

I see we'll have a long conversation.

Do you want a coffee?

Your whole life is a lie, Dad.

And so is mine.

That's why I've never known

anything about you.

Tell me who I am.

What's my real last name?

Don't raise your voice.

Let's talk quietly. Get comfortable

and we will talk

a little.

You k*lled Poncho's mom.

You k*lled all those women.

That's why you

changed your name, Hugo González.

You are The Butcher of Reynosa!

Have some coffee.

Maybe that'll calm you down

and get you

to stop insulting your father.

All I've done is work like a dog

to give you all the best,

you ungrateful brat.

You're a piece of sh*t, Dad.

I assume you must have

lots of questions, right?

Well, honey

since you asked,

I'm an open book.

Let's talk.

So, where to start?

Let's start with Reynosa.

[voice begins to distort]

The year when you were born.

It was a different time, right?

Little kids like you were more obedient

and people respected the police.

Not like today.

- [ringing]

- The way you came to my life

is the way you'll go now.

Bye, bye.
