[Margarita, in Spanish]
Those who speak Krikon will know,

the priest said, "If anyone objects,
speak now or be forever silent."

I wanted to say so much.

I SAY MAGIC - PART TWO

JUVENILE FACILITY 23

[Daisy, in Spanish]
Why do you say it's not Margarita?

Mar wouldn't ever just frolic about
knowing that I'm here.

-I don't think she knows.
-[Pipe] And?

She doesn't care where I am.

Either she's a terrible friend,
or something's up.

It must be because of Merlin's wedding.

-What about you?
-[Daisy] I'm not sad.

I'm angry, sick of not being a priority,
of being used and led on.

Like with Fach and Merlin.
I don't trust anyone.

I understand.

But I never tricked you.
I never stole from you.

I believe you.
But why would my aunt lie to me?

[tender music playing]

What? Do you want to say
something about her?

I want to say something about us.

-I really love you.
-[footsteps approaching]

[guard clears throat]

Goodbye, P.

[Pipe sighs]

Dai…

you owe me an answer.

Come.

-Let's go.
-[music concludes]

-[crowd cheering, applauding]
-There are cameras all over.

Remember how Delf thought we died?

-It's best she continues thinking it.
-[breathes shakily] That's wrong!

Everything related
to the Pietros is wrong!

-[sobbing] No.
-[somber music playing]

He must've been threatened!
Why would he get married?

-We have to help!
-No, no!

Treason runs in his veins.
Why are you surprised?

-[huffs] You don't know Merlin.
-He's Pio Pietro's son.

There's a saying, "A bird in the hand
is worth two in the bush."

[hesitates] The apple doesn’t fall far
from the tree. Wake up.

I say again…

-you don't know Merlin.
-At any rate…

-[breathes heavily]
-…enough.

We'll not risk being seen anymore.

[music concludes]

-[cell phone chimes]
-Hi, Mar. How are you?

I thought you were with Merlin,
but I saw you in Korea,

and he's marrying Petra in Krikoragán.

-Did you break up?
-[cell phone chimes]

[pensive music playing]

-[cell phone chimes]
-Look, let me know if you're single.

If you are, I'll take the first flight
right over to you.

[cell phone chimes]

I pity you.
Humiliating yourself for Margarita.

She doesn't respond
or talk to you. Pathetic.

-Your jealousy is so ugly.
-[scoffs]

I bet it's because Delfina sent Margarita
and you stood here.

[speaking Krikon]

[Erasmus, in Spanish] You have 48 hours
to return to Krikoragán and marry Petra.

Otherwise, it'll be a funeral,
not a wedding.

Your poor brother Ali.

-[clock ticking]
-[tense music playing]

[speaking Krikon]

-[in Spanish] So?
-[Rayan over earpiece] Relax. Just chill.

Not quite yet.

[Merlin over earpiece]
The clock is ticking.

Merlin, stall as much as you can.

Are you ready to take over as Reynica?

[music concludes]

Ooh! What is it?

The air's so heavy in here.
I can't breathe.

I don't want to sing with him anymore.
I want my solo career.

-Aw, baby, you're right. Tell me more.
-[sighs]

I don't even care. Come on, please.

-[whimsical music playing]
-We've ran the numbers.

Individually, you guys
are average, nothing crazy.

But together, you're amazing.
So, can you do me a favor?

Can you love each other?

Love each other fully
for just a few minutes of the day.

I don't care what you do
in the rest of your day.

Whatever you want,
hate each other, k*ll each other.

Can you just finish the song?

-That was a question. I want answers.
-[both] Yes.

Yes, what?
"Yes, Queen Delfina," or something.

I am not your friend.
Can you get that through your skull?

-Yes, Delf.
-Great. Yes?

-Yes, Delf.
-Yes, Delf.

Excellent.

ROYAL WEDDING IN KRIKORAGÁN

-[grand regal music playing]
-What does this mean?

No clue, but it looks more
like a theater than a wedding.

-[Ada] Where were you?
-I went to see Pipe.

-[Ada] Ah!
-Yes.

My aunt says otherwise,
but I don't think he stole it.

-Of course.
-Then we have to get him out of there.

Of course we have to, but…

Go on. You always look like
you're about to speak.

-You're like Pipe. I'm sick of your lies.
-I'm not lying.

I was watching the boys' stream. Look.

But the priest stole
the thunder. [chuckles]

When I get married,
this is exactly what I want.

[Delfina] These brats
are still live with this fiasco?

Just look at you.

I don't get why he does that.

First, he seduces me,
then Margarita, and then Petra.

Men are just like that.

They lie, deceive, and speak their mind.
Look what Fach did to you.

You know why? Because you're too nice.

-She is.
-To see that, is to grow up.

[music concludes]

-[whispers] Now, Rayan.
-Almost, just a bit more.

[suspenseful music playing]

How many times must they go around?
They're stalling, no?

It must be the ritual.

-Really?
-I don’t think so.

Look at the priest.
He's almost k*lling them.

-[goblet clanging]
-[crowd gasping, murmuring]

Pardon me.

-[music concludes]
-The Musketeers never needed anything.

Yeah, we're in the country
where Alfonse Du Cayan lives.

Only he knows where my brother is.

Not to rain on your parade or anything,

but I doubt
Alfonse Du Cayan is still alive.

-Besides, even if he is alive…
-Hmm.

…how will we survive those b*stards?

They only know Margarita.
We have to get her out of the country.

-Hmm.
-[wind whooshing]

[Fach] Mm.

[Maika] Borja!

-Where's Margarita?
-[Fach] Where's Margarita?

-[somber music playing]
-[sniffles]

[Margarita] There I was,
with a ton of fliquitis.

I didn't know where to begin crying.

But as always, in my life,
magic A*DS me in my saddest times.

[sniffles]

[music concludes]

Rayan?

-[thrilling music playing]
-[breathes heavily, exclaims]

-Of course it's you, Rayan! [chuckles]
-[Rayan whimpers]

I can't believe it! What a coincidence!
How you've grown!

What's with that face?
Don't you recognize me?

-It's me, Margarita! [chuckles]
-What are you doing here?

Magic is always kicking in
when I need it the most…

-I'll tell you later.
-Not now.

-[device beeps]
-[alarm blaring]

Why so cold, man? What's wrong?

What happened
to my sweet and gentle Rayan?

-[worker grunts]
-Stay here!

-Rayan!
-[guard groans, screams]

-No! Help!
-[Rayan] Come on!

There! Help, please!

Over there? Ali?

-[Rayan] Let's go.
-[Margarita shrieks]

-What have you become, Rayan?
-I'll explain later!

No way! Right now!
Why did you kidnap the prince?

-I can't right now! Later!
-[grunts]

[speaking Krikon]

[brooding music playing]

[rickshaw engine shuts off]

-[in Spanish] Rayan, explain! Now!
-Give me a minute. It worked.

[over earpiece] He's with me.

[priest speaking Krikon]

-[in Spanish] No.
-[crowd gasping over phone]

I won't get married.

Because this wedding is just an attempt
to take away my freedom,

to control me and make me complicit
with your savagery!

Poor Petra. It must be humiliating,
being abandoned at the altar.

-That's how villains are born.
-[witch cackling]

-Why'd they do that?
-[Merlin over laptop] She was forced too.

-Just imagine how she feels.
-[shushes] We're trying to listen, hmm?

Innocent blood would've been spilled,
as it was 15 years ago.

Unfortunately for you, Uncle,

I will not be part
of this family of usurpers.

[crowd gasping, murmuring]

WEDDING CANCELED

-The throne of Krikoragán…
-[tense music playing]

-…belongs to the Cornwall de la Hoya.
-[Delfina] Did you hear that?

He just acknowledged you
as the true heir!

You're free too. Live your life.

Another step, and you'll cry blood
for the rest of your life!

You can no longer threaten me
with my brother.

Ali is with me.

-[feedback screeching]
-[earpiece clatters]

[uplifting music playing]

Did you help him?

[chuckles]

I knew it! [laughs]

[indistinct chatter]

[dramatic music playing]

[bike engine revving]

[police siren wailing]

-I swear he was with me.
-I know.

-I don't know where he went.
-We have to find him!

[bike engine revving]

-It's Merlin.
-What are you doing?

You'll help the usurper?

It's good to have him with us anyway.

Do you want to fight?

Hey! [pants]

-[grunts]
-[officers groan]

Fach?

[Margarita] Even for those
who don't believe in magic,

life is magical.

[music concludes]

[bike engines shut off]

-Ali!
-[Ali giggles]

-How are you?
-I'm fine.

-Did they hurt you?
-No.

[Merlin kisses]

-They really didn't touch you?
-I'm fine.

Are you sure?

-[uplifting music playing]
-Thanks, Rayan. Really.

I owe you my life, friend.

And thank you guys too.
But, Fach, why are you here?

Well, after so many escapes, we'll…

REINA LIVE

[Severino] You've acted recklessly.

Spending a fortune on your new dream,
just to attain what is unattainable.

This is an investment.

-What if it goes wrong?
-Nothing goes wrong for me.

[sighs] You need to diversify, Delfina.
We need new sources of income.

-Okay, such as?
-[Severino] Your two other nephews.

They never showed up.

After Merlin's renouncement,
and with a king-less Krikoragán,

Margarita's older brothers
are much more valuable.

You want me to create
another false prince?

-[dubious music playing]
-No. I want to bring about the true ones.

If you want some of your money back,
that'll be your ticket.

I'll get so rich with streaming,

so obscenely rich, that I'll buy out
the entire kingdom of Krikoragán!

Bye, now! See the hand gesture? Go.

[music concludes]

How'd you reach Krikoragán?
I don't get it.

Well, that's… [clears throat]

…sort of a "coincidence,"
in a "manner of speaking."

I'll explain later.
I'll tell you how I reached this garage.

For that, we have to go back
to when I was ten years old.

-Nine.
-[Margarita] Ah.

-[Rayan] And three months.
-Ah.

-[Rayan] And 20 days.
-You know each other?

-Rayan was my first love.
-[cheerful music playing]

-[giggles]
-Huh?

Remember how my first boyfriend
taught me how to pilot?

Well, allow me.
Rayan, Merlin. Merlin, Rayan. [laughs]

-[chuckles]
-Fate's a funny thing, no?

I bump into him specifically
during his search for your brother!

-Uh…
-[Margarita] On the topic of brothers…

I present to you my brother.

-Fach is your brother?
-Quite a twist, no?

-[both chuckle]
-And who are you?

-Ah, they're…
-[Borja] My name is Borja.

Borja Valentín Tabor.

Ready to save any prince,
or princess that may need me.

-And this is Maika.
-He doesn't have to know us.

-Thanks for the help.
-Thank Fach.

-I did it for Margarita.
-[Margarita] Well…

Guys, enough being shifty-eyed
at the renounced prince!

He honorably renounced himself!
He said, "This is not my throne."

[Merlin] I hide nothing.
I was about to marry her

because they threatened
to hurt my brother.

Rayan helped them escape,
and now I can be at peace.

See? It's all cleared up,
like the summer sky.

-Hug it out?
-Those are the words of a Pietro.

-[music stops]
-[Maika] I believe nothing.

I don't want to butt in,
but we have to leave the country.

Right, but I just bumped into Mar,
and need a word with her.

Many of them think that she cheated.

[song concludes]

[chuckles] So, anyways,
what's new with you guys?

We can't say much, but it's a b*mb.

-Uní, ven.
-It's unique, like me.

-So, then Única is not so unique?
-[Rey] Well, let's say…

[chuckles] …Única is no longer alone.

Of course, we're a team.

-But we're working on a song.
-We can't talk about it.

-It'll work out. [squeals, chuckles]
-I don't know. Not for a while.

-[upbeat music playing]
-"Privileged Única,"

and "Delf, Queen of Frauds"
are getting more popular.

[Daisy] Ada, the Marquise requested it.

Now, that Merlin
has acknowledged me as the true heir,

we have to take the throne back.

Yes, but you're much too young
for such a responsibility.

I don't get it.

-My whole life, you've prepared me…
-Yes.

…but now you won't help me?

What? Talk to me.

[groans]

Daisy, at these times…

-My little princess.
-[music concludes]

-[Daisy] Hello?
-They're waiting for you to record.

Not now, I'm talking to Ada.

-Thanks.
-I would go now.

You know how your aunt gets
when made to wait.

-True. Thanks.
-Thank you.

-Talk later.
-Yeah.

[suspenseful music playing]

There are cameras
and microphones everywhere.

One more word…

Don't make me threaten you.

Many have suffered already.

-I really missed this, Mar.
-[music concludes]

-What's wrong?
-I just can't forget this feeling.

I know it was all an act,

but I saw you there all "Petrafied,"
and I was full of fliquitis.

-[chuckles]
-I can't believe you're here.

[tender music playing]

You don't know how happy it makes me.

You're magical, Mar.

Spare me your honeyed words,
ex-Prince Charming,

who, dressed like that,
I would happily marry.

-[gasps, chuckles]
-What?

-You want to marry me?
-You want to marry me?

-You want to marry me?
-I don't know.

[chuckles]

-Oui! Chaahana! Yes!
-[laughs]

In all languages!

[chuckles]

-[cell phone chimes]
-I don't know if you didn't respond

because it's late in Korea,

or because I screwed up with Merlin,
who wound up not marrying.

[sighs]

But I'd like to gift to you
a little something called "September."

-[wind howling]
-[song concludes]

-I can't believe Fach is your brother.
-[chuckles] Yeah, incredible.

You haven't even heard the other news,

but for that you'll need a couch,
in case you pass out.

Who'd have thought
the princess of the people's heart

-would be the love of my adolescence.
-[scoffs] Adolescence? We were kids.

-You never forget your first love.
-Look who's talking.

-What?
-[Margarita] Ah, no.

Your first love must be another,
because you never recognized me.

-You changed too much.
-Doesn't matter.

-You're even lovelier.
-[Merlin] Are you done?

-Okay, business talk.
-Yeah.

-We flee before we get beheaded.
-[Margarita] Yeah. [exhales]

Let's use the old tunnels
all the way back to Kimera,

a Bedouin territory,
and from there, we reach the border.

-Yeah.
-Just one little problem.

We have disguises and papers for three,
but we're seven now.

-[tense music playing]
-[gasps]

[Severino] Ada is a b*mb.

-What?
-A time-b*mb.

Enough violence! If this Ada goes missing,

the court will send another one,
and I don't want anyone snooping here.

You like playing that way, yeah?
Threats? You're perverse.

That's why you love me.

Yes, I must admit I'm in love.

-[Yamila] Delf!
-I love you.

-What?
-The brats are getting louder.

-"#DelfQueenofFrauds…"
-[breathes heavily]

-[moans softly]
-…is trending 15th place worldwide.

We counterattack with trolls,
but they keep at it,

and now they'll report
to the committee for fraud.

If this escalates…

the Reina's launch will be drowned out.

-Terribly so.
-And they want Thistlebug?

Fine.

Honey.

[thrilling music playing]

[Merlin] Any news?

Just what we thought.
They've closed all access points.

Still, we'll get it done today.
I just need more disguises.

-Don't worry about us. We'll stay.
-Why?

I'll explain it to her later,
but not in front of you.

She's my girlfriend.

You don't have to know
everything about your girlfriend.

I'll tell you everything later.
And you, mister, with me.

Were we apart for that long
only to be still distant?

[Fach] We'll talk later.

-So mysterious.
-There's no "later."

You all come with us. Now.

Anyway. Rayan, can I borrow your phone?

-It'll be quick.
-No, it's too dangerous.

I need to talk to Pipe.
I haven't heard from him in days.

Ti prego.

-[suspenseful music playing]
-Are you sure, Delf?

-Yeah.
-[cell phone ringing]

-Who's this?
-No.

-It's Pipe's phone.
-[gasps]

I kept it just in case,
to keep an eye on him. [shushes]

[cell phone chimes]

[cell phone chimes]

-Nothing.
-Okay.

-That was quick.
-Done.

-Write what you want him to say.
-[hesitates]

What's wrong?

I don't like this silence.

-Someone has Pipe's phone.
-[music concludes]

-[keyboard clacking]
-[Delfina] "Delf, I love you.

Absolute queen."

[in distorted voice]
Delf, I love you. Absolute queen.

-[whimsical music playing]
-[keyboard clacking]

[Delfina] Another voice,
with more enthusiasm!

[in Margarita's voice]
Delf, I love you. Absolute queen.

-[typing]
-[Delfina] "You're the true queen.

You've done it all yourself."

You're the true queen.
You've done it all yourself.

Don't do that to your mom.

"Sometimes, I wish she were my mom."

I wish you were my mom sometimes, Delf.

[clicks tongue, scoffs]

This girl is k*lling me.
Did you hear that? She's so sweet.

[music concludes]

"Erasmus Pietro has declared
a state of emergency kingdom-wide."

My God, my poor land! Such suffering!

-Where are you going?
-To the bathroom.

Mind telling me who you think you are?
You think you're a real king?

-Shut it.
-I'm your servant, and all I do is wait?

Your friend has embodied a role,
the hysterical girlfriend.

-Will you talk to her?
-Yeah?

-Or is it just you acting like a star?
-Do me a favor, take off that shirt.

Get changed.
I want you rehearsing in five minutes.

Let's go.

-[brush clatters]
-[Única sighs]

[soft pensive music playing]

Don't stress, you always look great.

I wish it were that easy. You're luckier.

-Única picks your looks.
-[scoffs] Tell me about it.

"Tell me about it"?

They say fights mean love,
but you guys hate each other.

-Yes, we do. You have no idea.
-[chuckles]

She hates me
more than she hates Margarita.

That says it all.

Then why are you together?

Because of your aunt.
We're useful as a couple, and it works.

But I'm alone.

I hope that much is clear.

Why do you want it to be clear?

Because I do.

I think you should know it.

I'm alone,
and I don't want to continue to be so.

-Here.
-[music concludes]

Charge it and keep it.

That's Hans's number.
If you need anything, ask him for help.

-Okay?
-Okay.

I'll call you.

We'll keep in touch. Mm-hmm?

[uplifting music playing]

Give me updates every four hours.

You got it. [chuckles]

Thanks, Fach. Really.

It was nothing.
Look after yourselves. Mm-hmm?

[Margarita] And now,
back to the beginning.

-[crowd cheering, applauding]
-[energetic rock music playing]

Welcome to Reina!

[Merlin] Careful.

Of course, you may appreciate
your favorite couple.

[Delfina] As there is no queen
without a princess,

ours will take a very special place.

I have a surprise for you.

They're all looking at Delfina.

I'll bring it on!

Tell me now.

Where do I begin? [clears throat]

-You're the son of the usurper.
-Yeah.

[Margarita] And the crown belongs
to the Cornwall de la Hoya?

[Merlin] Yeah.

And all that magic, we…

It'll be a shock.

-Come on.
-[Margarita] Look.

[clears throat]

The true Princess Margarita of Krikoragán…

c'est moi.

-[gentle music playing]
-[scoffs] What?

Fach is my brother and is looking
for his other brother, Andrés.

-What?
-That's right, little ex-prince.

You searched for the princess…

and by coincidence, fell for a plebeian…

who happened to be the princess.

-You are…
-[Margarita] I am.

I am the true…

princess.

[sighs]

[uplifting music playing]

Your Majesty.

[Margarita] Sometimes,
magic isn't in the events,

but in when and where they happen.

Like being called a princess
by an ex-prince

that curtsied me in a cold, damp tunnel
within my kingdom.

I don't know about you, but I think this…

-is magic.

♪ Could it have been the rain
That set you on your path? ♪

♪ With your rainbow, I was stuck ♪

♪ Stuck in winter or in spring ♪

♪ Wherever you go, I'll look for you ♪

♪ You'll be my star ♪

♪ Where would that girl go ♪

♪ With such a bright face ♪

♪ And that lovely smile? ♪

♪ Fascinated, I looked at you ♪

♪ That dance of the winds ♪

♪ As it breezed at your back ♪

♪ Wherever you go, I'll go with you ♪

♪ Close by, or by the ends of the earth
That'll be my destiny ♪

♪ Wherever you go, and however it is ♪

♪ In your way, in my way ♪

♪ Wherever you please ♪

♪ Hmm ♪

♪ In your way, in my way ♪

♪ Wherever you please ♪
