Where are we going?

To the end of the world!

ON THE PREVIOUS SEASON…

You look like a mischievous cat
running along that wall.

-Get out of here.
-No.

Why? You're treating me
like a secret lover.

That's what you are, my secret lover.

Mom!

Look who's back! Gourmet Breasts.

You've been very naughty lately.

What do you think you're doing?

What do you all want with Ecomoda?

I don't know about Ecomoda,
but I want everything with you.

I'm with you, not so much with them.

Didn't mean to interrupt.

She ignores my calls,
she won't talk to me.

You must've done something to her!

It's over, Armando.

I can't keep on living like this.

I feel like you two
have a lot to talk about.

And you should leave me alone! Thanks.

Mila, wait! Don't go.

-First of all, we may be ugly…
-But we're united!

I'm going to be a dad! She's like a sun!

You may kiss the bride.

Goal! Damn!

I really like you.

Namaste.

-It's kind of hot in here.
-It's cause we're smoldering.

Ecomoda is burning!

He who laughs last laughs best.

Betty.

You are the face of the new collection.

Inspired by all the women

who feel beautiful
just by accepting themselves.

A woman who represents
the values and soul of Colombia.

-Our ambassador to the whole world.
-Betty is Colombia.

My love!

-She's so cute!
-Coochie-coochie-coo.

Betty, don't bother the boy!

BACHELORETTE PARTY

CURRICULUM VITAE

Look at her.

Step aside, move!

Come on, girls! Come on!

Excuse me.

BETTY LA FEA, THE STORY CONTINUES

Well, tonight is Tribute Night.

Thank you so much!

As I said, it's Tribute Night,
so I want to pay tribute to you.

That's right, my audience.

Because you are also worthy of tribute.

I want to thank you, really,

for being there during
this wonderful and brilliant career

that tonight, like everything in life,
is coming to an end.

And it's coming to an end with Tribute.

Enjoy, and give yourselves
a round of applause!

-Thank you.
-One moment!

One moment!

Ladies and gentlemen, a moment.

Sorry to interrupt the evening like this.

Excuse me, please. Yes.

But I am obligated to accuse

Mr. Hugo Lombardi of fraud.

Francisco Robledo,
international criminal lawyer.

I have all the necessary evidence

to prove that the collection
you've just seen

is more plagiarism than tribute.

-What?
-Yes.

Because Mr. Hugo Lombardi
stole everything from my client,

all of his creations.
It rightfully belongs to Mr. Ángel Pulido.

Lombardi stole everything from him!

-What?
-What's going on?

What do you mean? Who are you?

It can't be!

THE PREVIOUS DAY

Hey! Hey! Here comes Betty! Back there!

-Mom!
-Oh! Mila!

Wait! She's hurt.

Are you okay? Watch it.

-Are you hurt?
-I inherited more than just your laugh.

-My love!
-I missed you!

-I missed seeing you in person.
-Me too.

You look gorgeous!

-Are you really okay?
-Yes.

Welcome back to the country.

-Welcome, dearest Beatriz.
-Dad.

That cologne? Isn't that the one
Mom gave you for special occasions?

Well, welcoming you back
is a special occasion, my dear.

Okay, stop, you're going to make me cry.

What's up, sweetheart?

So, what's all this?

You're looking gorgeous, aren't you?

-Excuse me, excuse me, it's my turn.
-Pascual!

Okay, wow, beautiful. You look stunning!

-Thanks.
-No! Not your hand. No, no.

No, no. We missed you so much.
No, you look beautiful,

I really mean it.
I had set up a welcome for you,

I had a wonderful reception prepared,
but they beat me to it,

and then they started…

I haven't seen my mom in a year,

-and we have a lot to talk about.
-Of course.

-Mom!
-Can I help with your bags?

-Oh, the bags.
-You look gorgeous!

Let it go!

No matter how far I go,
Ecomoda goes with me everywhere,

like an electronic ankle monitor.

I'm taking a break
from my "Betty is Colombia" world tour

and coming back for Hugo Lombardi's
farewell to the runways.

Through this collection
that you will see tomorrow,

I wanted to give a heartfelt homage

to this beautiful word, "tribute."

-Bravo!
-Thank you.

I'll take the opportunity
to tell you that, starting tomorrow,

I'm going to work on two simple things.

The first, my school.

-Bravo!
-Thank you.

The Hugo Lombardi School of Design.

And the second thing I'm going to work on

is traveling the world with my love,

with my inspiration,

with my soulmate,
or as I call him, my Alter-Hugo.

Now, let's welcome Ángel Pulido
with a big round of applause.

Bravo!

Thank you.

TODAY - THE HERMIT
EVERY CLOUD HAS A BETTY LINING

And you, how are you?

I'm good, Mom.

Actually, this time
without distractions has helped me,

especially now that Hugo is leaving

and I'm going to be
in charge of the Design Department.

-Look at that.
-They love each other.

It's true, honey.

You've been preparing and fighting
for years to earn that place.

You deserve it.

-I love you.
-I love you.

-Oh, I missed you.
-Me too.

But the distance from my Armandaddy
has done you a lot of good too, hasn't it?

Damn, girl!

Don't mess around. You screwed up, Betty.

-Come on, answer. You chickened out.
-Answer.

Armando is doing very well too.

That guy is always doing well.

-I've never seen you so nervous.
-I'm not nervous.

-You are.
-I'm not.

-Not even back in your days of…
-I'm not nervous, damn it! No, sir!

A year without seeing
the lovely ex-ugly girl,

-of course you're nervous.
-Freddy, please.

I see her all the time, man.
We have virtual meetings,

we chat, we talk about the company.

Stop your nonsense, for God's sake!

-Mancho…
-Don't call me Mancho!

Cold virtuality is one thing,

but the conversationality of interaction
is something completely different,

-and I…
-Don't push me.

I'm not pushing. As your spiritual coach…

Why is everyone's dancing?

It's the music, listen.

As your guardian
I have to tell you two things.

On the one hand,
you have to maintain interest,

but also dignity and composure.

"Dignity and composure."

She's just coming for a visit, that's all.

It's her company too.

And besides, I'm perfectly aware, Freddy,

that Beatriz is my ex-wife.

-Smile!
-Welcome!

-Careful.
-Yes, ma'am.

The thing about Betty…

-Come on.
-Careful!

-Ready?
-Let's help.

It's perfect.

It looks just like her, doesn't it?

She looks a little elf-like to me.
Exaggerated features.

Is it the ice?

-You think so?
-It's absolutely unbelievable.

They even "Bettrified" poor Aurora Pinzón
with nonstop gossip.

Freddy, you're going to ruin it.

Don't touch it! You'll ruin it!

It looks wonderful to me.

-Betty deserves a statue, and much more.
-Yes.

Listen, do me a favor, Bertha,

don't talk with your mouth full.
Bring me what I asked for.

Yes, sir, right away.

-Everyone, stop dancing.
-Coming.

Mr. Armando turned out to be
colder than the statue.

All right, but tell me the truth.

How did he and Betty get along
after the divorce?

Nobody really knows.

Because they stopped having sex
and were just friends.

Personally, I'd keep the sex.
We don't even have to talk.

-Well!
-Of course!

Girls, no, really…
do you think the spark of love and passion

is going to light up again
between those two, or not?

You know what? That would be
a great topic for our podcast.

Yes!

Will love and passion
be reborn from the ashes?

Who's the cutest little thing?
You are. Yes, you are.

-You're not listening to me, are you?
-Yes, I am. Yes, I am.

I get it now.

It turns out that Patricia Fernández
is a good mother.

Who would've thought?

Marce, I'm putting the baby to sleep.

I've been responsible my whole life,

not like Betty,
taking off without a care in the world.

She left to work.

You can't deny that tour
is Ecomoda's financial lifeline.

I'm sorry, Marcela Valencia,

but she went off to travel the world
at Ecomoda's expense.

I mean, she's on a parasitic tour.

You're parasitic!

Don't you realize that's my computer
and this is my chair?

Oh, coochie-coo,
little cutie, coochie-coo.

Marce, you're scaring her.

This is what you look like.
"Where's the baby?"

"There she is!"

Of course, you don't have
any experience with motherhood.

This is how it's done.

Who's there?

Who's the cutest little baby?

Go to sleep.

Go to sleep. Go to sleep.

Mr. Hugo, we made you a beautiful banner.
What does it say?

"Thank you, Hugo!"

You're welcome, truly.

It's been a pleasure working
at this company with…

-It's awful. No, Huguito.
-What's that?

-What is that?
-The cold dish is here.

Who is…

Is that me?

Why did they make me macrocephalic?

I look like I'm wearing a helmet.

Yes, Huguito.
they made you look horrendous.

In fact, you can really see
the favoritism there.

Look at Betty's.
They made it with crystal-clear water,

whereas yours was made
with stagnant water.

Your Bachelor of the Year statue
is missing.

The statue of liberty and libertinism.

ECOMODA
WHAT'S THIS GUY'S DEAL?

Ángel… Ángel.

Have you tried respecting yourself?

Or have you tried respecting Hugo?

Until you can do that,
I'm going to make a suggestion.

Don't address me informally. Please.

You'll see, Armandi.

You'll see.

Surprise!

How wonderful it is to see you all!

Madam President, please,
accept a warm and cordial welcome

on behalf of the Union of Free
Retired Workers of Ecomoda, UNTRAPE,

of which I am the President.

Thank you, Gutiérrez.

Betty, you have no idea
how happy I am to see you.

Sofía, you have no idea how happy I was
to learn that you were…

Oh, Freddy…

Ladies and gentlemen,
clumsy Pinzón Solano.

Oh, no. I don't believe this.

I'm so embarrassed.

Betty, Betty, come here. Don't worry.

Calm down.
I have everything under control.

-No.
-Carmencita, Efrén.

Come here, clean this up, please, quickly.

Could you pick up all the ice for me?

Play something. Play something.
The one I mentioned.

The statue has been destroyed,
but I need you completely intact.

Turn that thing off, man!

Where is the dignity?
Where is the self-control?

-That thing?
-Hold it together!

Oh, for God's sake, this is nothing
but a subliminal message of love.

For real?

Betty, Sofía has come up
with some great ideas.

We have a radio show now.

It's called a podcast,
and we do it on our phones.

Yes!

Oh, please, enough already.
Leave her alone.

-Don't be so intense.
-Sweet talkers.

Betty, welcome.

Thank you, Patricia. How are you?

Marcela, how are you?

I'm glad you could come, Beatriz.

I didn't want to miss
Hugo's farewell party.

Oh, Hugo. Congratulations.

Thank you very much, Betty.

I imagine you've heard about
about my guardian angel.

The infamous Beatriz Pinzón.

A pleasure.

The infamous… Ángel Pulido.

And you should see
how polished he's turned out to be.

I'm going to steal him for a minute,
excuse me.

Of course.

The target has not made eye contact.

Of course, during her time abroad,
she must have met many handsome men.

Shut up, you idiot, she's coming.

Hello, Armando.

Betty.

Let's get this party started!

Bravo, Betty!

Come on, dude!

Silence!

Thank you.

Well, I'd like to…

Betty, why don't you come up here
and say a few words to everyone

who wanted to throw a celebration for you
today to welcome you back to Ecomoda?

Betty, the floor is yours.

Bravo!

Thank you very much…

to all of you for this welcome.

I'm sorry I knocked over the statues.

I've been incredibly happy here
at the company

since I came back, because Mr. Nicolás
appointed me as his secretary.

But I think what would make all of us
incredibly happy

is if you stay.

That's right, Betty!

-That's right!
-Stay!

That won't be possible.

During the months
that I've been traveling,

everywhere I've been,

I've kept track
of everything happening at Ecomoda.

Thank you, Marcela,

Madam President.

Thank you, Armando.

You did a magnificent job.

Thank you.

Well, it's good to know
you didn't need me.

Betty, I am Hugo Lombardi.

I am a fashion legend.

I don't share the stage with anyone.

Calm down, drama queen.

Mom, I am only asking
that, when the fashion show is over,

they announce that I'll be
in charge of Design Department.

Betty, it's just that my relationship
with that oligarch Aura María

is a struggle between affection
and resentment. How can I put this?

She turned into a cutthroat capitalist.

And what am I supposed to do, Freddy?

Cancel the tour. Come put things in order.

Look at the chaos
they're causing down there.

And above all, help me raise
my standing on the social ladder.

A promotion, Betty.

Freddy, I can't get involved
with you and Aura María.

And for a promotion,
you need to talk to Marcela.

Betty, you have to talk to Nicolás, Betty,

because he's stingier than ever.

And alcoholism is breathing
down his neck, Betty.

Betty, look,

the baby isn't even crawling,

and Pati wants her in horseback riding,

contemporary dance, ballet.

She can't even talk and she wants her

in English classes, French classes,
other languages.

She wants me to pay
for expensive preschool,

college paid in advance. What is that?

Armando, can we talk?

Of course.

Maybe another time.

These are very good numbers, Marcela.
Congratulations.

You've done an incredible job.

Well, thank you.

If we keep this up, after the tour,
you can take back the presidency

with the company in excellent shape.

You never liked me being president.

Well, that was before.
I don't care anymore.

I have plans for the future with Pascual
and I need to give you the position.

-I have plans for the future too.
-Really?

But that's a conversation for later.

Well, thank you very much,
Marcela, excuse me.

See you.

Ms. Arriaga. Why are you here?

Ms. Pinzón, it's a pleasure to see you.

Yes.

Yes,

closing… chapters.
Opening doors, closing others.

I came to finalize
the sale of my shares, and…

For my mental, physical
and spiritual health.

Well, and yours too, of course.

That sounds great to me.

Ms. Valencia is ready to see you.

Excuse me.

Ms. Valencia.

How are you, María José?

The paperwork is all ready. Have a seat.

Thank you.

We're very happy you decided
to sell us your shares.

So if you sign this, you'll have
the money in your account tomorrow.

Mendoza seemed a little nervous
when you arrived, did you notice?

He just kept staring at you,

but you gave him the cold shoulder.
Very well played.

He's my ex-husband. It'll always be
awkward when we see each other.

Awkward in a good way or a bad way?

He still rocks your boat.

Awkward.

Armando and I still have
a lot of things to clear up.

Yes, yes.

Why is this gentleman sullying
the room of a lady who isn't his wife?

-Get out!
-Sullying?

-What a word.
-Sneaky.

Okay, goodbye.

Bye, Betty, you can give me
the thing later.

-Bye, Nicolás.
-Let her rest. Can't you see she's tired?

Go take care of your child.

-Did you forget you have a daughter, sir?
-Easy.

I'll see you tomorrow at breakfast,

but add some bacon to go with the eggs.
Get creative.

Out!

My dear daughter.

Welcome home.

We're so happy to have you back, my dear.

And I will always welcome you
with open arms.

Although it also needs to be understood

that a house, like everything else,
deteriorates over time, right?

The plumbing doesn't work
the same anymore.

Nor does the electrical system.

Anyway, well… That wasn't…

the most important thing
I wanted to tell you,

because…

it turns out, my dear, that…

that…

I've fallen in love again.

And it's someone you know.

That's why I wanted to shar…

Beatriz Aurora?

Betty?

Okay, then. I'll go talk to a wall.

The Club's Special!

-A space unlike any other.
-A minefield.

-Like eating fish.
-But with the bones.

-A high-risk zone.
-A starter, a main course, and dessert.

Hey, my rock stars,

how are you?

Today, for the first time on our podcast,
we have a guest.

Well, what am I saying, a guest?
A super guest.

None other than…

I'm Beatriz Pinzón,

people call me Betty.

And as you already know,
I'm one of the executive secretaries.

Welcome to The Uglies Club.

Better known as the former ugly girl,

and with her we're guaranteed
fun and mischief.

Bravo! Welcome.

Betty, welcome! Bravo.

Thank you so much, girls.

I'm so excited!

Well, Betty, today's topic is,

"Love after 50: Love or being single?"

What do you think?

-Wow, what a topic.
-Yes!

Well…

I'm going to start getting the hot flashes
that come with this age.

Right.

Well, Betty, is there room
for love and passion after 50?

I think…

there's room for passion and love
at any age.

-Well, there's hope then.
-This is a double-yolk egg.

I mean, sounds like there's something
cooking on the side.

Is there someone out there, Betty?
Tell us.

Well, I think love comes
when it's meant to.

-Right.
-Yes.

But I also think that… that you have
to leave the door open to possibilities.

-Sure.
-Yes, of course.

So we've reached
the most anticipated moment.

Consulting Mariana's tarot.

Betty, focus,

and split this deck into three.

Relax, focus, and give me a card.

Pick one.

Wow, Betty.

It's the Hermit.

This card tells us
that you need to create distance.

A period of isolation
to see things much more clearly.

This tea just got piping hot.

Come on, let's hear it.

Who or what do you want
to distance yourself from?

-Tell us.
-Yes.

Sweetheart!

You're stunning!

Well…

Well, this is how a future designer
of Ecomoda dresses.

-Divine.
-Mom…

Are you actually going to announce
that I'm taking charge of Design?

Betty, I hope that in your speech
you announce

that you're canceling that long tour
and staying at Ecomoda. Okay?

-Come on, let's sit down, Sofi.
-Let's go.

Good luck, Mom.

Excuse me.

Neighbors, ladies and gentlemen,
good evening.

Before we start this beautiful event,

I want to share some news
that's been driving me crazy.

I am deeply in love.

So cute!

That's why I'm announcing that next month,
that is, this coming month,

I'm getting married.

I'm marrying
my beautiful Marcela Valencia.

And the most wonderful thing
of all is that every single one of you

is invited to the ceremony,
which will be held at one of my estates

where I grow potatoes.

Now, the important thing

is that my queen Marcela
have no idea about this.

I need you all to play dumb

and when I do it,
you go, "Surprise." Ready?

-Ready.
-God bless you.

I'll put this here.

-I almost didn't make it.
-Hi, Marce.

-Hi, love.
-Come on, take a seat, please.

One, two, three.

Surprise!

What?

Yes, ma'am.

Marcela Valencia, love of my life…

this is for you.

-Thank you.
-Peel the petals.

I mean, take off the petals.

Open it!

There you go!

-What?
-Look at this beauty.

Look. What do you think?

Right?

Marcela Valencia…

love of my life.

Will you… marry me?

-Yes.
-Oh, my God!

-Bravo!
-Bravo!

Marge, have you seen Ángel?
What's this "disrespetal"?

-No, darling, no.
-Have you?

Have you seen Ángel?

-No, Mr. Hugo.
-No answer. Where is he?

Excuse me. That's the most…

Let her go.

Bravo!

You know,
I think the tour did you a lot of good.

You look very pretty, Betty.

Thank you.

Thank you. The Finance Vice Presidency
suits you too.

Well, wow, thank you.

What really matters now is to keep
laughing at the same things,

don't you think? As a couple.

Of course, we're like a comedy.

A romantic one?

More like an absurd one.

Armando,

I need to tell you something.

Your tone is scaring me.

Did something happen?

It's something I've been thinking about,
reflecting on for a while.

And I want to tell you
before I go back on tour again.

It's something
that would make Mila very happy too.

I'm listening.

That over the past 25 years,
I've been everything.

I've been your secretary,
your accomplice, your lover,

your wife, your partner, your ex.

But I've never been your friend.

I want to suggest, Mr. Armando…

that we be friends.

The friends we've never been.

Friends?

ON THE NEXT EPISODE

-What happened to you?
-What happened?

I've been robbed!

I want to know who's behind Ángel.

Meaning…

Marge, I'm a complete mess.

Dear family and loved ones,

the time has come for me
to get off at this station.

BETTY LA FEA, THE STORY CONTINUES
