Cause of death? It was a fall from a great height.
Was it a suicide?
Very likely.
Nothing. He's not answering.
I'm going to the police.
- I'll go with you. Let's go. - Okay. Let's go.
I told you, Rocío.
I told you not to upset Eric.
Sorry. I didn't know.
Rocío, your mom's taking you to class, okay?
With all that's going on, it's best you stay with her.
You'll see. He'll show up eventually. Come on.
- Let's go. - See you.
Nico…
Hey.
Where the fuck have you been, dude?
Nowhere, bro. Just went out.
Bring it in, coz.
Hey.
What's the matter?
What the fuck's wrong with you guys?
Can you please stop lookin' at me that way?
Sorry to say, but I can't do this anymore, Eric.
We tried so hard. I can't do it.
Oh, yeah? What have you tried?
Nico, Rocío's mother is downstairs.
Can you give us a minute? Be right there.
Sure.
Wait. I'm comin' with you.
- I can't handle them being pissed. - No, no, no, no, no.
Your pupils are ridiculously dilated, Eric.
It's nothing. I was hanging out, partying with the guys from the squat.
You know they miss me and love the shit outta me.
Drugs? With your medication?
No, no. I didn't mix 'em. I threw the pills away.
Excuse me?
The real drugs are meds.
Take the drugs! You're sick, bro! Why hurt those who love you?
Hurting you?
- I'm the only one hurting here. - It doesn't affect us? We don't care?
You just want me to be on those shitty pills
to turn me into a drooling, brain-dead vegetable.
You and everyone else!
We loved you and gave you a roof over your head
and we gave a shit!
When did you become such an old man, dude?
Right now you sound like your mom.
How 'bout you shut up and keep her out of this?
You really did a number on her.
Listen up, coz. Maybe we stop there.
- Before you say something- - Stop calling me "cousin"! Shit!
You're a selfish piece of shit.
Tell him to get his stuff outta here!
I can't take it. Neither can you or Dad. Just tell him to get the fuck out!
What the fuck are you saying?
I said leave! Go back to the squat house. I don't care!
People there love you. Everyone here treats you like shit.
That isn't what I said!
Just get out. Go live with your parents or under a bridge!
Who cares? Just not here!
Fuck!
You know better than anyone
how hard it was for me to open up and trust someone again.
You turned out to be just like every other guy
who gained my trust only to completely destroy it.
- Isa… - Don't "Isa" me.
You've hurt me more than anyone else, you know?
- That's not true. - Yes, it is.
And the lesson you taught me is also true.
That family will always come first.
- No, Isa. I'm not involved in their shit. - No?
I didn't do it for my family. I did it for you, Isa.
And also for me. For the both of us.
Fuck it. Come with me.
- Get your hands off. - Come here.
- What are you doing? - Come on.
- I told you not to touch me. - Let's go. Come.
- Dídac, no. - Dídac, yes.
I'm gonna tell her. We're gonna tell her.
Can you explain what the hell Luis has to do with this
and what it is you're trying to say?
All right. Come on.
Was it so hard to say "good morning" to that guy?
ARTINIAN GOLDSTEIN FAMILY
ISADORA ROMAR MADRID, LTD.
Dídac has been collaborating with us, not with his family.
I don't get this at all.
After the shooting, I went undercover at Las Encinas to see
if they were responsible for it or not.
But we began to uncover a much more complex scheme
that points directly to your parents.
Your parents have a rather… extensive history.
Extortion, blackmail, kidnapping…
No, stop. Stop. Why're you lying?
He's not lying to you. It's all true, Isa. This is a war.
One that won't end, and you and me are stuck in the middle.
It'll end when one of the two families falls,
and you've decided it's gotta be mine.
No, his family is also in our crosshairs.
And Dídac is helping us and will continue to do so.
We were going after them, Isadora. That's true.
But… now our priority is your parents.
I don't care if they lock up my family. They deserve it.
If that's what it takes to end this
and for them to stop fuckin' our lives up, I don't give a shit.
- Well, I do give a shit. - About what?
I don't betray the ones I love without thinking twice.
Like you did with me and your family.
I have morals.
And you, Luis, you haven't done anything.
'Cause, obviously, you have no actual evidence against my family.
Exactly.
And that's why we need your help.
No.
Leave me alone.
You especially.
Good morning, Sara.
Good morning.
Don't torture yourself. Don't give them an ounce of attention.
Ignore them.
I didn't think it'd be this hard.
All right. Come on.
What should I do? Forget it?
What if he's a monster to Chloe?
That isn't your problem.
You're jealous and can't stand he's with someone else.
It's not that.
You're still addicted. That's normal. I went through that myself.
Emotional dependence doesn't suddenly disappear.
And you know what?
He's aware of it.
Of what?
That you're addicted to him.
And he loves it, even though he's with someone new.
He won't stop. He'll do what it takes to make sure you never leave him.
Because he needs to feel that he has power over you.
That's why you need to take some space from him.
Just a second.
Take this.
It's a request to get them to transfer you to another school.
You want me to transfer?
But I've already moved out. Now I have to lose everything else?
You're not losing anything. You're gaining.
Your freedom, mental health.
Your peace.
Seriously, take my advice.
Mm.
- So, hey… - Hmm?
Visiting me mid-morning's becoming a habit, huh?
Uh, I guess so.
But it's cool.
My mother.
Uh-uh.
She says she's at Isadora House and needs to see me.
Chloe, just stay away from her.
Maybe something's wrong. Hold on a sec.
- May I? - No, I…
- It's my phone and my mother. - Right.
It's for your own good. Okay?
If you don't realize it, I'll do it for ya.
Blocked her.
Chloe, don't you get it?
She gives you anxiety, or she's making you feel guilty,
but it's always something.
Yeah.
Come on. Where were we?
Hmm?
Listen. I gotta go to class.
Yeah.
- Uh-uh. - Mm-hmm.
I really gotta go.
- I'll see ya later. - Pfft.
Bye.
FOLLOW ME.
Did you wanna talk?
Who are you texting right now?
Chloe.
You're only with her to make me jealous.
She's my girlfriend, 'kay?
Hey, do you need a friend? 'Cause I do.
Honestly, yeah. I can use one.
But tell me what's going on with you.
I've been so focused on Eric lately, I've been a bad friend to you.
Nico, come on.
Real friends are those who'll be there no matter how much time goes by.
And I knew you were there, man.
How are you?
It's Eric.
He's really screwed up.
- We had to kick him out. - Fuck.
It sucks, man.
He pisses me off, and I'm so done.
But I feel like a bad person.
He can manage a few days.
No, that's not it. He'll get by on his own.
I can't help thinking
we threw in the towel on him way too early.
Nico. Hey.
You guys have been incredible with him.
I know he'll come back.
I'm sure.

COUSIN ERIC
- You should disappear. - You're disgusting.
You're worthless. Just a constant disappointment.
You're pathetic.
You should disappear. You'd do us all a huge favor.
Stay away. You destroy everything you touch.
You're worthless. Just a constant disappointment.
- What a shame. - You're pathetic.
- You destroy everything you touch. - You're worthless.
- Stay away… - What a shame.
Stay away. You destroy everything you touch.
You're so pathetic. You destroy everything you touch.
Are you all right?
Isa?
Hi, baby.
Do you have a minute?
Yeah.
Look, I need you to tell me what's up with my mother.
Uh, no, girl.
No, I'm telling you, I wish I didn't know. I swear.
Ignorance is bliss, all right? Truly.
Not if my mother is a criminal. She's a fucking judge.
And you shouldn't look the other way either
if your parents are also involved in shady shit.
We can't let them run wild, doing what they want
'cause they're our parents.
Babe, distract yourself.
Just dissociate. It's what I have to do.
"If justice isn't just, we'll do it ourselves."
Remember?
We have to make sure that those who should pay pay.
No matter who they are.
My mom's always been a source of pride for me. My role model.
But if it turns out everything I thought was a lie
and she's corrupt, don't hold back.
Let her pay.
The police have been investigating you for months.
Yes, we'll have to be a little more careful.
Oh, so you don't give a fuck.
It's part of the job to know these sort of things.
You don't care, 'cause unlike other businessmen
who broke a couple laws here and there, you have broken a million of them.
Nothing's ever happened to us, hmm?
Do you have any idea why?
Because the police have no idea who did it or didn't do it.
They don't even know what's legal and what isn't.
And killing Amazona? How 'bout that?
Starting a shootout at a school full of minors?
Bribery?
What about blackmailing a judge
to tear down a building you told me was falling to pieces,
but it was bullshit?
What is that? Legal? Illegal? What?
If you want us to stop, just say the word.
Yeah, of course I want you to.
- Shh. Easy. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We have to stop this, Martín.
- She's in it up to here. Enough. - Shut your mouth. Just shut your mouth.
Your shitty way of doing things is over.
What do you have there?
The evidence against Catalina.
Mom gave me the folder.
Why the fuck would you do that?!
What's the problem?
You wanted me to join the business. Here I am.
What'll you do with these documents?
Give them back to Catalina?
I think that's a good way to change the dynamic, yeah.
And do you know what'll happen when you give those back to her?
What?
She's gonna come after us to screw us over,
and she won't think twice about it, dear.
Is that what you want?
No. I want to trust in good faith.
You want… to trust in good faith?
That's a terrible idea. But here.
Don't do it, sweetheart.
Leave her alone, Martín.
Maybe it's not a bad idea to try to do things differently.
INCOMING CALL
Why's Isadora calling you?
Hello?
My parents and I are gonna meet up with you
to return your documents this afternoon.
What?
What's in these documents is your business.
But between you and me, I hope you rot in jail someday.
All right, then. Tell me when and where.
The three of us are gonna go apologize.
We're in deep shit, Mom.
See?
This is why I always tried to keep you away from it, bebé.
This is no life for you.
LET'S MEET HERE
Why does she wanna meet up?
- That's between her, her parents, and me. - What is, Mom?
Nothing, dear. It's all just, um… Well, it's over.
NEW MESSAGE
LET'S MEET AT THE SAME TIME ON THE ROOFTOP OF THIS BUILDING.
IT'LL BE MORE DISCREET.
I'm not going home.
- I'm going with you to see Isa. - No way, Rocío.
Isa's my friend. You're my mother. I wanna know what the fuck's going on.
So if you won't fill me in, she will, no matter what you say.
All right, then. But don't get out of the car, understand?
What you thinking?
Nothing.
You can tell me.
I just got so fucking cold. Sorry.
If you're upset that I'm going…
then come with me.
- No, you're crazy. I see now. - No.
I'm being serious.
But what about school?
We can study there. Together.
Uh, no, no, no. No way. It's… That's fucking crazy.
What's fucking crazy is not enjoying what's happening with us, Joel.
I know you find it hard to accept any good that comes your way.
That you even think you don't deserve it.
But you do deserve it.
Once and for all, you deserve a life that treats you well.
And I'd love to give you that.
Just think it over.
And let me know, okay?
MESSAGES FROM STUDENTS
HELLO??
I NEED TO TALK TO SOMEONE…
BEFORE I DO IT.
DO WHAT?
KILL MYSELF.
You're my friend, Diego's my friend…
Dude.
What the fuck is going on in that head of yours right now?
Something bothering you?
What?
Um, yeah, no. I'm doing great.
No, acquaintance and friend are different.
- You can be friends and not know them. - See, Pedro?
Right. I know Pedro. That makes him my friend.
How do you know you know him?
- I know I know. - You know you know?
CAN WE MEET? I NEED ADVICE.
OMAR IS ONLINE
I NEED ADVICE FROM YOU AND DALMAR.
I NEED HELP FROM BOTH OF YOU.
YOU JUST RECEIVED A €2,000,000 BANK TRANSFER
HOW ABOUT WE START OVER?
CHLOE HAS BLOCKED YOU. SHE MAY NOT READ THIS MESSAGE.
Carmen?
How are you?
Great. How have you been?
You're worried about Chloe, right?
Because you can't reach her since she's been with Raúl.
May I?
He's keeping her from you.
And from us, her friends.
Her loved ones.
That's how he does it.
He isolates you, invalidates you, abuses you.
He what?
I went through it myself. That's why I got out.
It took a long time because it's hard to get unhooked from someone like him.
But I did it.
Carmen, you have to get Chloe out of there right now.
And I know you think she's a strong, brave, and self-sufficient girl
who would never let a guy push her around.
However, Raúl has that ability.
I never thought I'd be that sort of girl, but that's what he turned me into.
He's a fucking manipulator.
What's this? Iván's stuff?
Hi there.
Can you go get me the lube?
My mind and body are totally disconnected.
Sure.
I'll put it on.
Chloe, what the fuck are you doing?
What the fuck am I doing?
I should ask you.
Listen, that's an old video.
It's old. But you had today's outfit on? Do you think I'm that stupid?
That video's from when we were together.
- I swear she's fucking with you. - I'm sure.
- Stay away from me, you son of a bitch. - Please, Chloe.
- Let's talk. Chloe! Please! - Fuck talking! Leave me alone!
- Cheating motherfucker. - Chloe, listen-
Chloe! Chloe, can we talk about it?
- That video's old. Listen! - Sure, asshole.
- Old, my ass. - She's playing you.
- Who you calling? - My mother.
- No. We need to talk this out. - My phone!
No. I've got nothing to say.
If I say we're talking, we're fucking talking. Okay?
Iván!
- Chloe? - Momma!
Babe, are you all right? Open the door!
Carmen, we're okay. You know you're not welcome here.
Let my daughter tell me that to my face.
- Open it. - Chloe, what's going on in there?
Get her outta here.
- Okay? - Mm-hmm.
I swear, if you play any games, I'll fucking lose it.
- Chloe? - I'll fucking go nuts.
Will you open the door already?
Babe, open up!
I'll be right there.
Mom, what's the matter?
Are you okay?
I'm perfectly fine. Why are you here?
- May I come in? - It's not the best time because-
I'm coming in. How could you not let your mother in?
Raúl, darling.
What's up?
How are you?
Sorry to barge in. Put something on so we can chat.
- Now's not a good time, Carmen. - I'll go get the whiskey I left last time.
- Carmen- - I know where everything is. Don't worry.
Now, go get dressed.
Whose bags are these?
Iván's.
All right.
- I'll wait in the car. Don't take forever. - Yes. We're coming.
Bebé, are you ready?
I think it's better if you don't come with us.
Why not?
I wanna sort this out alone with Dad and Catalina.
Sweetie, let me come with you. I can be there as a form of moral support.
No, Mom. Will you please just listen? Stay here.
I'm begging you.
- Where's your mother? - She's not coming.
She never believed in me. You and I've got this, though.
Start the car. I don't want to be late.
Dude, I think you're going too far.
Iván's the one who suggested it.
And you said yes?
I'm not sure if I should. That's why I'm asking you guys.
So, are you deeply in love with him?
No, please. Just tell us. Don't be worried.
We're friends.
I think so.
Do you want to play the story out?
- Yeah. - Well, that's that, kid.
And your classes can come later.
His classes won't have to come later if he stays.
Just wait for him here. A few months ain't long.
Oh…
Except you can lose someone in weeks or days or even hours, trust me.
Well, shit. Thanks a lot, Omar.
I think that… you're always letting guys just drag you along, and you should stop.
Iván's in the program.
So what? You'll be there to cook for him or carry his backpack?
Or do you want him to pay for you to go there too?
Can you please stop always being the kept man
and start doing things on your own?
Did you feel like I was a kept man with you?
- Look, come on. Go with him. - Don't. Stay here.
And when Iván comes back, if he does, then you take it from there.
I think we should leave you alone and give you time to think things over.
I think that Dalmar and I have made it more confusing for you.
Let me know what you decide, handsome. Let us know.
Both of us.
Come on.
Uh, Mom.
- This isn't a great time, y'know? - When's a good time?
When he does it to your other cheek? Hmm?
Go with Iván.
But why?
It doesn't really matter. Come up with a reason.
Just get out of here. Do me that favor.
Go on.
Where are you going?
Uh, mm… going out for a minute.
M'kay? Just a sec.
C'mon. A couple of whiskeys and a chat.
Let's go to the rooftop. Get some fresh air.
DON'T STOP TALKING TO ME. I CARE ABOUT YOU.
Oh, come on. Please respond.
YOU WOULDN'T SAY THAT IF YOU KNEW ME.
I'M SURE I WOULD.
I JUST WANT TO END IT ALL AND DISAPPEAR.
BUT WHY?
ONLY THEN WILL I STOP SCREWING OVER THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE ME.
I DON'T THINK YOUR FAMILY THINKS YOU'RE SCREWING THEM OVER.
YES, THEY DO. THEY KICKED ME OUT OF THE HOUSE.
THE PERSON I LOVE THE MOST KICKED ME OUT.
- What are you doing here? - Where's Eric?
Is something wrong?
I've called a thousand times. He won't answer.
Why? What's wrong?
We have to find him. Hurry. He'll answer you.
Well?
No. No answer.
Oh my God.
Sonia, please, just tell us what's the matter.
- He may be a danger to himself. - My God.
I may know where he went.
- Come on. Let's go. - Yeah. I'll get the car. Come on.
- Yes. - No, no, no, no. Hold on.
I should go alone.
Right now, he's pushing you away.
- I hope not me too. - Okay.
- Be right back. - Okay. Call us.
GETTING MY TAXI. SEE YOU AT THE TERMINAL.
Iván!
I hate…
how this all turned out.
It sucks.
But I'm glad you're getting out of here.
'Cause you deserve happiness, and that's not with us.
Iván…
I HAVE YOUR TICKET. NOW I ONLY NEED YOU. HOPE YOU COME.
GETTING MY TAXI.
I HAVE YOUR TICKET. HOPE YOU COME.
Why's Catalina taking so long?
She's not coming.
Why not?
Dad, what have you done?
I'M AT THE ROOFTOP YOUR DAD SENT ME TO.
Where did you send her?
SEND ME YOUR LOCATION. QUICK.
What's going on? What did you do? Where did you send her?
SEND ME YOUR LOCATION. QUICK.
Listen, it pains me to admit to you and to have to agree with your mother,
but it's become clear that you can't handle this.
Putting you in charge was a mistake.
I should have taken care of Catalina myself.
LOCATION: SUNSET ROOFTOP 18 NUEVOS MINISTERIOS, MADRID
You see, in business…
…you have to be cold-blooded.
FORWARD TO…
And, honey, that's something…
you're not ready for.
- Rocío, what're you doing here? - Mom, why are you here?
I told you to stay in the car. You don't listen.
What happens if you do it?
Who wins?
You're better off without me.
You're wrong. I wouldn't be here if I didn't give a shit.
You didn't think that this morning.
Look, man, I'm so sorry.
I was pissed off.
I thought I was angry at you, but it was at myself.
Because it pisses me off that I don't know how to help you
or make you see how important you are to me.
There ya go.
You gave it a shot.
Now you can sleep easy. Your conscience is clear.
No! No! Eric, please! Eric, don't.
Drink.
I don't like it.
Well, I don't like you either.
But I'm here,
trying to see why my daughter's into your dumb ass.
I take care of her.
- I understand her and protect her. - Mm-hmm.
Slap her around. And restrain her. You turn her into someone she's not.
- Carmen, that's not how I roll. - Sara tells me that's a pastime of yours.
Giving your arm a workout.
Sara was just a fucking manipulator
who can't get over that I don't wanna be with her.
When my daughter opened up the door for me, her face was still red.
I assume that's because you had just slapped her, right?
Anyone ever taught you that's not how you treat a woman?
No one taught you that?
- We were arguing. That's all. - Uh-huh.
- All right? - And there was a scuffle.
- Ah, a scuffle? - Yes.
- That's all. - Uh-huh.
What was the scuffle like? Can you tell me?
- How'd it go? - Hey!
- "Let go. You're hurting me"? - Stop.
- That? - Back up. Stay where you are.
- Oh, yeah? Huh? - Carmen!
And in the middle of the scuffle, that's when you let her have it, huh?
- Hmm? How'd it go? - It's not.
Maybe a little something like…
Huh? And when you let her have it, I can assume that Chloe,
and I know this 'cause I'm her mother,
tried to defend herself.
She tried to defend herself, right? How'd she defend herself?
- Stop. - Did she push you? I bet she did.
She push you like that?
- All right. - Huh?
- I've had enough! - Did-
Calm down! Crazy bitch!
You think you can hit me? Huh?
Where is Catalina?
Why do you care so much about her?
Huh?
Catalina was starting to cause a lot of problems.
Mom!
Yeah. She was useful for a while, and you know why?
Thanks to those documents,
we got the concessions to set up your Isadora House.
Which you love so much.
The holding company and so much more.
That's what she was useful for.
But now, that's it.
In fact, as of today, we no longer need her.
Bam. She's out.
Disconnected.
Adiós.
- Rocío! I'm so sorry. - Someone, help us!
C'mon, Eric. That's not you talking, dude. It's not you!
You stopped the meds, and it's making everything seem darker.
Eric, look at me.
The only thing the guy standing in front of you can give you is his thanks.
Need me to spell it out for you?
I, Nico, wouldn't be here if you weren't here.
And it's not that I want to be like you.
Well, thank God.
No way.
But you were the first person I could always be myself with.
With no judgments or questions.
You were always my partner in crime.
With you, I was always Nico, even before I was Nico.
You're so fucking important to me, and I should've told you before.
And if you decide to do it…
At least I can rest easy knowing I told you.
And if I lose you…
you wouldn't have any clue how big a void you'd leave behind.
Let's go back home, together.
I'm sorry.
I know you wanted me to be a carbon copy of you.
- But I wanted to do things my way. - Hmm.
Darling, it's okay.
- It's okay, honey. Really. - You know what?
I don't think my way is wrong.
And you want me to prioritize the business, right?
To override your point of view if I think you're making a mistake.
And right now, you're making a massive one.
You told me never to falter when faced with making difficult decisions.
You wanted all that from me?
Where are the documents? Hand them over. The folder. Give it to me.
Where are the documents, huh? Catalina's papers.
Give them to me.
I don't have them anymore.
EXPRESS DELIVERY
They're with people who should have them.
There's the confession. We got them both.
Martín and Catalina. Let's get in there.
What have you done?
You were right, y'know?
Trusting in good faith is a terrible idea.
CATALINA DURÁN IS HERE.
Thank you.
Catalina Durán? You're under arrest.
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say may be used against you.
Nobody gets to fuck around with me.
I… Ice…
Ice.
What are you saying? Huh?
The whiskey.
We need more ice.
What the fuck are you rambling on about? Fuck!
You're fucking crazy!
You see? How you don't know how to treat a woman?
Yeah. No wonder Chloe won't see you, you crazy bitch.
When a woman… asks you for ice
and you're out of ice, do you know what you do for her? Huh?
- Do you? - Yeah? What?
You go down and get her ice.
So? How did it go?
- Dad got arrested. - What?
Yeah, Dad and Catalina got arrested.
Police were listening to him confess through a microphone.
The police? Why were they there? And what microphone?
- Who knew where he'd be? - No idea.
- I know as much as you do. - Who planted the microphone?
I'm just thankful you weren't there.
Imagine if they'd overheard you talking too.
Dalmar?
Dalmar!
Yeah, man?
Hey, man. What's wrong? You're unhinged.
Fuck. That's not good.
I know you're hurting, but you did the right thing.
Yeah, but he didn't do what he wanted to, Dalmar.
Come here.
You staying for dinner?
Well, the thing is, it's pretty late, and…
and then getting to my parents' house is a huge pain.
Well, you could always crash here if you want.
No. I shouldn't.
It's what's best, Joel.
Come here, friend.
Go. I'll clean this up.
Okay, then, guys.
