A NETFLIX SERIES
Damn it, Esteban. Pick up.
Jana!
You've reached…
Calm down.
It was you, asshole.
What?
You sabotaged us.
Jana, stop being so paranoid.
Paranoid? You've been screwing with us from the start.
If you're accusing me, I hope you have proof.
Like your confession?
The video had to be uploaded from a school account.
Who uploaded the video?
I told you, Jana.
Be careful who you keep close, they'll betray you.
-Did you do it? -This again.
Why don't you go ask Mr. Puebla?
Oh wait, he ran away.
Esteban wouldn't do that.
Do you know that for a fact?
Or is it because you fell for his poor, nice guy act?
We all know Esteban was never honest.
But that's okay. I don't judge.
We all have our secrets.
Or do you still think that Dixon here
is from a tough part of Bogotá?
You know nothing, bro.
Poor guy, he can't afford to maintain his hair,
his watch, his sneakers.
Cut the shit.
Look at him.
What about you, Selena?
The devout Christian girl,
with her liberal parents in the US
who sent you to Mexico to become a pop star, really?
It worked for Taylor Swift, but she's one in a million.
You know nothing about me, Luka.
Maybe, but I know that Jana brought us together for her benefit.
What about you, Luka?
You're here running your mouth,
but you're hiding something too.
I'm an open book.
You have a lot of nerve.
Everything I said is true.
You can't get far in life being naive.
I'm the only one telling the truth.
We're not friends.
We were pretending.
My name's not Dixon.
My parents are both well-known lawyers in Colombia.
They never had time for me, so I grew up with my grandpa.
He put me in a Catholic school.
I wasn't exactly famous for being a rapper.
I was an altar boy.
No way.
Why did you lie?
My dream was always to be a rapper.
That's why I came to this country.
But who would respect a rapper like that?
I lied to my parents.
They didn't want me to come to Mexico, or EWS.
So I told them
that I was studying at a religious music conservatory.
They trust me a lot.
Andi.
What?
You don't have anything to say?
You're among friends, we won't say anything.
What? Emilia?
-What about her? -They're together.
No.
We just hooked up and that's it.
-So, you're sleeping with the enemy? -The enemy, really?
-She's with Sebas. -And?
Besides, I don't have to tell anyone what I do.
But how did you find out?
Your turn, Jana.
Do you want to tell us anything?
Like what?
Do you think we'd be friends if it weren't for the band?
I can't.
What? Why not?
The choreography is easy.
Your perfume. You smell like my mom.
If you don't want to rehearse, say so. But don't make things up.
This isn't the rehearsal room for disqualified contestants.
Is this where your band meets to wear animal costumes?
Let's talk about that.
Can you give me a minute?
-We're in the middle of-- -One minute.
No. You can't order me around. You're not the boss.
Love, can you give me five minutes? I have to talk to Luka.
Love, you should use those five minutes to get rid of that horrible smell.
I don't get it.
You forced me to do all of that.
I did it, the band is out now.
You said I'd win the Battle of the Bands, now you're icing me out.
What about what you promised me?
You went quiet.
You don't give the orders.
Be patient. We're not on your time.
Really?
I don't have patience.
So, you know what?
I'll go to Celina's office.
I'll show her the video.
If she asks,
I'll tell.
Your costume party will be over in seconds.
Try it, then.
Tell me how it goes.
We would be friends.
I mean, obviously,
if the circumstances were different,
maybe we wouldn't have even spoken.
But that's life, right?
For whatever reason, you move out,
you end up in a classroom where you meet incredible people,
super talented people.
People you grow fond of.
That's what happened to us. Right?
The Battle of the Bands gave us that.
Do you really think Esteban betrayed us?
The video is from his account.
What if someone made him?
You don't think he did it on purpose?
Who wanted us out of the Battle of the Bands?
The Lodge.
Sebas.
Is there any chance he'll confess again?
Obviously not, but he's not the only member.
We need to find someone else.
And who else does he hang out with?
Only idiots.
Only idiots and?
Who is he always with?
No way, Dixon.
I'm not saying Emilia's part of The Lodge,
but she's the closest person to Sebas.
It's just for show.
Emilia hates him.
You have nothing to lose by asking her.
Sure. "Hey, Emilia. Are you part of The Lodge?"
"I wish you'd told me before. It really would've helped."
Please.
If you're so sure, there's nothing to worry about.
Do you really think I'm some dumb rich girl
that spends her time playing with a dumb secret club?
And with that idiot, Sebas? I thought you knew me better.
It's just you're always with him.
Rehearsing.
That's when he's not throwing fits and kicking me out like trash.
Are you really doubting me?
No.
It's just…
Fucking Sebas. He's the reason we're disqualified
and now we have to find out who's behind The Lodge.
You thought I was?
Do you have any ideas?
Honestly,
I always thought he was sleeping with someone.
Okay. Who?
I don't know, but she smells bad.
Her perfume smells like my mom's.
So he's sleeping with someone older.
Or at least someone with bad taste.
Dude, Sebas is banging some lady.
Yeah, I saw a used condom in his dorm.
No, like he's banging an older lady.
An older lady as in…
Like my grandma?
No, not that old.
Emilia thinks it's someone older than him.
Like our biology teacher?
Well, I don't think she's really his type.
-Anita. -What?
Anita!
I saw her last night going into a classroom.
What kind of assistant stays at school that late?
And what would she be doing in a classroom so late?
-Hooking up with someone. -Exactly.
How do we know it was Sebas?
It makes total sense for The Lodge to have someone in the administration.
Anita's the perfect candidate.
I'm sure she could get the key to the RBD uniforms.
And even if it's not her, we could still expose her.
It's against the rules for an employee to sleep with a student.
But we don't have any proof.
It's always the same.
I might have a plan.
Need something?
Celina's busy right now.
That's fine, I'll wait.
She'll be a while.
If you want, I can tell her you stopped by.
No, don't worry. I have time.
Let me explain.
Her afternoon is swamped.
Between the final, your friend's disappearance…
He's not my friend.
No, of course not.
A friend doesn't betray those who trust him.
But anything you want to tell Celina,
you can tell me. Okay?
What's wrong, Luka? You seem worried.
Nothing.
Okay, I'm glad.
I mean, what could a Colucci be worried about?
Things always work out for you.
Right?
All right. I'll come back later.
Great.
Esteban took his things and won't answer his phone.
What kind of school lets its students just leave?
Believe me when I say I'm very concerned about your son.
I'm sure he wouldn't have left if he hadn't been accused.
I want to give your son a chance to explain himself.
What matters now is finding him.
Do you have any idea where he could be?
Maybe.
Hi.
Do you work here?
No. I'm here to see Rocío,
but I'm early.
It's worth the wait.
Really?
Are you…
A fan.
Rocío's one of the best singers I know.
Seriously.
Why is one of the best singers you know in a place like this?
You need more than talent to make it.
Like connections?
It always helps to be in the right place at the right time,
but it's not everything.
I think it has a lot to do with who you know.
That's true.
For better,
and for worse.
Anita's leaving. She's heading for the dorms.
She didn't stop by Sebas' room.
She's headed toward the basketball court.
No way.
She's gone.
What do you mean? Where did she go?
I don't know. She turned a corner.
She must be meeting Sebas somewhere else. Where else could they be hooking up?
The janitor's closet, the music room,
the kitchen, behind the kitchen.
Aren't there dumpsters behind the kitchen?
Pretty much anywhere after 10:00 p.m.
-The chapel… -Since when is there a chapel here?
It's too late.
I mean, to be out of your room.
I know. I couldn't sleep.
I understand. It happens to me all the time.
If you want, let's take a walk until you get tired.
If you want.
Sleepwalking?
I've never heard that excuse before.
It's a real condition. It's serious.
Look, another sleepwalker.
There must be an outbreak.
Maybe if we wait five minutes, La Llorona will show up.
Go straight to your rooms. Now.
I bet those two won't finish out the year.
By the way, what are you doing here so late?
The same as you.
Keeping the school in order.
The only one who keeps order here is me.
ANYONE? ANSWER ME.
I FOLLOWED YOUR INSTRUCTIONS. WHAT'S NEXT? ANSWER. HELLO?
Now what?
We try again.
With Lourdes out there?
We could try tomorrow.
No, that won't work. She'll be extra careful.
She'll even stop screwing Sebas, just to be safe,
which she should've done eons ago.
Do you have a better idea?
Do any of you have a better idea?
You don't need to be like that.
Sorry. I'm trying to fix this, and it seems like you guys
don't give a fuck.
No, you're trying to prove Esteban's innocence, which doesn't--
Because Esteban is innocent.
Well, he uploaded the video.
And I don't get it either.
But all we know is he's gone,
he's not answering anyone, and he left us with this goddamn mess.
Maybe it was you.
-Come on, Jana. -What?
I'm serious, maybe Emilia swayed you.
It wouldn't be the first time you lied.
Wow.
You're crazy.
Luka was right.
We're not friends.
We're just pretending.
Take a punch, take a swing on me
'Cause I'm up when I'm down
I don't care what you say
What you do
I'm much stronger Can take it for longer
'Cause I've been around
I can feel
And I will
Get through
'Cause I've got no regrets
No worries
And if it stays that way
I'll be okay
'Cause I've got no regrets
No regrets
THE LODGE MADE ME FORCE ESTEBAN TO SWITCH THE VIDEO
I…
I MADE ESTEBAN DO IT
6 A.M. BE ON TIME.
What's wrong?
You and Esteban are hiding something.
I saw you.
Esteban isn't what he seems.
That's all I'll say.
Stop trusting people so much.
Not everyone is what they seem.
Hi, can I talk to you?
I'm on my way out. Excuse me.
Wait.
I'm your son.
You're confusing me with someone else.
Your real name is Rocío García.
I wrote this song for you when I was five.
No, actually…
I wrote it for you.
But I never finished it.
I guess you were meant to do it.
You had years to look for me, if you were interested.
Did you want me to show up out of the blue?
Like I just did?
What do you want to know?
I have this.
I want to know why Marcelo Colucci told you to stay away.
Why did he offer you money?
You can tell me, or I can ask him. Your call.
Marcelo is your father.
-Jani. -Mom?
Marcelo was only a fling.
Or at least I thought.
I was already married to Chava.
I didn't tell him anything.
Or Marcelo.
I needed a job.
So I went to Marcelo,
and he offered to hire me as Luka's music teacher.
It was a shock.
Seeing all that his son had made me think of you.
I thought of the life you could've had
that I couldn't give you.
That was when I told Marcelo
the truth.
I regretted it as soon as I told him.
Because I understood,
despite everything,
that I didn't want you to suffer the way Luka did.
What the fuck does that have to do with you abandoning me?
You wouldn't understand.
-What's going on here? -Why not?
Why did you leave me?
What did you tell him?
What happened? What did she say?
Am I winning the Battle of the Bands or not?
Patience is a virtue.
The fortune cookie advice is boring me.
Let's be clear.
Remember who you're dealing with.
Remember how powerful we are.
So,
what happens now?
Do you trust us?
I hate this thing.
You know, I didn't see that coming.
I mean, I know all of you guys.
They have golf club memberships,
but what kind of assets do you have?
A loyalty rewards card?
Idiot.
Welcome to The Lodge.
Do you want to win, Luka?
Well, you have to win,
with us, Luka.
You knew, didn't you?
Yes.
I'm guessing you're angry.
There are only two things that need to happen right now.
First,
you need to know…
you're my son and I love you.
And nothing will ever change that.
Ever.
And the second thing?
I need to know where we're going.
I walk
I'll follow you
Until I find myself
I give you my wings
I'll always shine on you
What do you feel, my heart?
Are you tired of hurting?
Of being lied to?
Dark shadows
Hiding the truth
My voice is my own
It can't be controlled
And I promise my heart will withstand
I'll hold on because I need to wake up
I won't forget the past
I can rewrite it
Thank you.
Sweetie.
Don't look so sad, Janucha.
In the end,
we always knew this school wasn't for you.
Let's go.
