-[woman 1] Hello. How are you? -[man 1] Hi. I've been waiting for you.
[woman 1] Hmm.
Look, I'm sorry.
-But I just couldn't fix it. -[sighs]
-[whirring] -[woman 1] Ah!
[both chuckle]
-Thank you so much. So what do I owe you? -No, no, it's fine.
-[woman 1] Are you serious? -Yeah, it was easy.
[woman 1 laughs]
-[man 1] Here. -[woman 1] Mmm!
Hmm.
-[man 1] Careful now. -[woman 1 laughs]
[man 1] Take care, ma'am.
-[woman 1] Thanks a lot! -[bell jangles]

CLOSED
[intriguing music playing]
[beeping and whirring]
[static crackling]
[indistinct radio chatter]
[under breath] Yeah.
[beeping continues]
[humming softly]
[crackling]
Yeah. Good, good, good. Good.
Very good.
[beeping continues]
How's it goin'?
[man 2] Take a look. It's done.
[man 3] It's finally time that we put an end to the abominable idea
that our government belongs to elites!
[crowd chanting] Araiza! Araiza!
[Araiza] We plan to increase investments in scientific and technological research,
so we can ensure free, high quality healthcare for all our citizens!
[crowd] Araiza! Araiza!
My pledge to all of you
is that the promises made during this campaign are…
are… are going to become a reality, and we will prosper!
-I promise you that, my friends! -[crowd] Araiza! Araiza!
-[Araiza laughing] -[man 2] We're ready.
[crowd] Araiza! Araiza!
Araiza! Araiza!
Hmm. And is she seein' somebody else?
I can't talk about that, Alan. She's my patient.
[Alan] God.
Well, he's a complete wreck.
-Really? -Yeah. He called me crying.
-He wants me to go with him to buy a bike. -[woman 2] Oh, no.
Jeez, this is so typical.
I honestly can't believe that Beatriz lasted that long with him, you know?
That's Mica's mom, right?
No. No, no, no, no. No.
No, Juana. We're not talking about her.
You said "Beatriz."
When you talk about Mica's mom without me knowing,
you always tell me it's about "Beatriz."
Well, no. No. Listen, we're not talking about…
Just don't say anything about this at school.
Is she why they fired my English teacher?
-Juana, enough. Drop it, okay? -[phone rings]
-[Alan] Oh, God! No, no, no. -[mother sighs] No!
I'm sorry. I gotta take this.
-Alan! -It'll only take a minute.
-[woman 2 sighs] -[beep]
I'm listening.
[man 4] Chief… [sighs]
The… the…
-The… the… the lady is just hurt… -Chief, what's goin' on?
-[man 4 splutters] -[woman 3] Nothing.
What do you mean? Is he doin' okay?
-[woman 3] Well, he's stuttering a lot. -[sighs] Okay. I'm on my way.
-No! -[woman 3] No, we got this one. Calm down.
-How long have you been there? -[woman 3] Three hours.
[Alan laughs]
-Okay. On my way. -Alan, no.
-Hey, they need me. -Oh! I can't believe you!
-Are there hostages, Dad? -That's right, baby!
[siren wailing]
-[tires screech] -Alan! Come on!
-You okay, baby? -No, of course I'm not! How--
-No, I meant you. You okay? -I'm okay.
NON NEGOTIABLE
[mother] Who's gonna take Juana to swim class?
-I have an appointment later. -[Alan] Ugh. Don't worry about it.
-[mother] We'll just talk at home. -[Alan sighs]
-Are you working undercover or something? -Sh. It's a secret.
-[Juana] Who's taking me to class? -[horn beeps]
[mother] We'll figure it out later, okay, honey?
-[Alan] Jeez. -What are you doing here, Bender?
What am I doing? Thought I'd help, chief. I love you!
[mother] I can't believe how inconsiderate he is. He never thinks about me at all.
This isn't working. This has got to stop. I can't keep doing this.
I just can't, you know?
[chief] I told you, we've got it covered. Everything's under control.
-[Alan] Okay. -[police radios chattering]
-[dog barking] -[Alan sighs] Okay, Menéndez.
Fill me in. What's goin' on?
The… the…
-The… the… -All right, all right. Slow down.
-Just breathe. Inhale. Exhale. -[exhales]
All right. Now tell me. No stuttering.
-The… that lady, it's her… her mom… -This lady?
-Excuse me. What's goin' on? -[woman sobs]
He's got my mom in there. I'm afraid he's gonna kill her.
-Do something! -Who is it?
-It's my husband. -What's his name? It's okay.
-José. -José. Okay.
-Calm down. It's going to be okay. -[Menéndez] I… I… [sighs]
[siren buzzing]
-[man] Hey! -[woman screams]
-[man] Hey! -Hi, José. I'm Alan Bender.
[José] Why the hell are they sending another cop up here?
[Alan] Oh, come on, man! Do I really look like a cop to you?
[José] Don't move!
Look, I'm a negotiator with the Special Operations Police Unit.
José, look, I'm the only one who can help you.
Talk to me. What's goin' on?
"Ooh, I can't stop thinkin' about you, sexy."
-"Wearin' something hot?" -[dog barking]
-"So, is that dude gone?" [scoffs] -[hostage screams]
She ran and hid before I could blow her brains out!
Take it easy, José. You're gonna be totally fine.
-[dog continues barking] -That a poodle?
Yeah…
-[Alan] What's its name? -It's Bushy.
Oh, Bushy. So beautiful.
[mother] That app has great videos, I swear.
-Even educational ones. -[game beeping]
You know, you don't need to pretend, Mom.
Just stay here, no matter what.
-Don't move. Please. -What if there's a fire?
-There won't-- -How do you know?
-I don't know. -[headphones blaring music]
-Ah! -Can you hear?
[doorbell ringing repeatedly]
-I'm coming! -[headphones blaring music]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Alan] You have three options.
You pull the trigger, first option.
-[José grunts] -[dog barking]
But you're totally surrounded by cops, José.
-If you shoot, you're a dead man. -[siren wailing]
Second option is, don't pull the trigger.
You'd still be a dead man.
[José whimpers]
[Alan] All those cops out there, they're hungry, José.
They'll get mad and impatient. Trust me.
There's nothing more dangerous in the world than a hangry cop.
And the third?
-Turn yourself in. -[phone rings]
-Wait a minute, I'm sorry. -[dog barks]
[José] Come on!
I have to take this.
-Hello? -[hostage whimpering]
[man] Hi. Did you know that you could have a higher data usage on your phone?
-Reach out now to learn… -José!
[José] Huh?
José, it's the attorney general.
She says, if you turn yourself in right now,
your lawyer might be able to justify this as an emotional or psychological crisis.
At most, you'd have a couple months in psychiatric treatment,
and then you'd go home!
Yeah. That's it, you'd be free.
Think about this, José. If you kill your mother-in-law,
that little slut down there is gonna clean you out.
She'll take your house and your car.
-I have a truck. -There you go. She'll get the truck!
She'll get Bushy.
No!
-Not Bushy, no! -[hostage gasps]
-[Alan] Yeah. She can't take Bushy. -[José whimpering]
-Not Bushy! [sobs] -[Alan] It's okay. I know. I know, José.
I swear, he's not a bad guy. He's just jealous!
[chief] No, Rosa. He's a violent man. But he's going away for a long time.
-Just promise me… -[radio chatter]
-Congratulations. That was great work. -Means a lot. Thanks, Menéndez.
-I… I'm a moron. -No!
Don't say that about yourself, okay? You're picking it up. You'll get there.
[siren blaring]
[Alan sighs]
-What do you say? -[Menéndez] B… beers?
[Alan] There you go, you don't have a problem sayin' that! [chuckles]
Remember how I told you I didn't ever wanna try dating apps or anything online?
[sighs] Look at that sweet man candy! Huh?
[laughs]
I met up with him for a date. I went to his apartment, too.
-There was music, a nice bottle of wine… -Have you been depressed?
[client] No.
I feel much better. More connected, more optimistic.
You know, I've never allowed myself to do anything crazy in bed.
And now I… I swear, the man treats me like a gymnast, and…
I mean, he asks me to do these things that…
Yesterday, he said he wanted me tied to the bed.
I couldn't move at all, he just did what he wanted. It was incredible!
I'm just glad to hear the medication is working for you, Jimena.
Actually, while you're here, I have a few samples.
-A new version of that medication… -One sec.
No!
I don't get it. Is she a gymnast?
I swear I have no idea what happened…
[sighs]
[groans]
See? I knew it was Mica's mom.
[Alan sighs]
God, that guy is a trip!
-[chuckles] Man! -[keys clank]
[sighs]
[partner] Hi, sweetie.
[Alan] Oh, holy crap! You scared me!
What are you doin'?
Jimena found Juana sitting on the toilet.
Jimena found Juana sitting on the toilet?
I couldn't find anyone to watch her.
[Alan] You couldn't find anyone to watch her?
And my patient had a breakdown. Oof!
-[laughs] -A breakdown?
[laughs] Stop mocking me, Alan.
Uh, what? No, no, I'm not mocking.
-No, I mean, I'm trying to-- -You're just repeating every word I say.
[Alan] Oh, am I repeating? I didn't mean to.
I… I didn't realize it, but… you seem kind of upset.
-How about you don't label my emotions? -What?
-No, how am I doing that? -Alan, don't try to control the situation.
-[Alan] Control the situation? -Listen. Now talk to me.
But that's what I'm doing. I'm just trying to talk to… to you.
-[partner] Okay. -Okay.
[partner] They know I was treating one of the moms.
They kicked me out of the parents' group chat.
And now it looks like I might actually lose my license as… as a psychiatrist!
Oh, but I'm sorry. How are you doing? How was your day?
Oh, mine? Well, I saved a hostage. It was pretty good!
I don't give a shit about the hostage!
Okay. Basically, I think we have three options.
No, two. Couples therapy or divorce.
-[Alan] What? -You're on the couch tonight.
[Alan] Are you serious?
No, I… Victoria!
[growling]
[sighs]
[woman] On the couch, yet again.
-[groans] María Luisa, that's really… -[María Luisa] Mm.
-Hey, baby. -Hi, Daddy. Look!
-I see it. Pretty nice. Mm-hmm. -The colors match.
-Oh my God, guess what? -What, baby?
-I heard Mica's mom is doing better.
-Oh, really? -[Juana] Yeah.
-Mmm? -She's now doing gymnastics.
She's awesome at it.
Gymnastics?
-[Juana] Yeah, gymnastics. -Oh.
But… I don't wanna go to a new school.
No, baby. No. Don't think about that stuff.
It's not gonna happen. Just try not to worry.
What's for breakfast, María Luisa?
-[María Luisa] Um, eggs. -Eggs with what?
[María Luisa] Eggs with more eggs, probably.
-[upbeat music playing] -[Alan sighs]
[Victoria] Oh, come on! No, no! You're gonna have to carry me.
[man] You're not tightening your abs. Focus on that core.
-[Victoria] I'm doing my best! Ow! -[man] We talked about this. Come on.
-[Victoria] My legs are on fire. -[man] Come on. Four more. Four more.
-[Victoria] I can't! -[man] You're almost done. That's it.
-Come on. -[Alan] Uh, hey.
-[man] There you go. -[Alan] Hey!
-Yeah? -He doesn't like to be held.
[man] Oh. Sorry.
-[window slams] -[man] I'm sorry.
-Don't listen to him. -[man] Come on. Last one.
[coughs]
-[man] Go. -Okay.
Ten, okay? Keep those abs tight.
-Okay. -Stick that chest out. Come on.
[puffs]
-That's one. -How's your mental health lately?
-Ah. -[man] Hasn't changed, really.
My mom has to send me some documents, because I don't have health insurance yet.
-You know… -[Victoria] Ah, Nico. Come on, man.
-Let me text a friend. He can help. -[Nico] No, no. It's okay.
-[Victoria] But how do you feel? -[Nico] Well, my hands got all sweaty.
Tachycardia. I couldn't breathe for a minute.
-That's called a panic attack. I told you. -No, I don't know, but it was bad.
It started happening as soon as I moved here.
-[grunts] -Three more. Come on.
-[puffs] -[Nico] Good, breathe.
Yeah. Two. Just more….
-Two more. Abs tight! -[laughs]
-Help me stretch and relax after? -Two, that's it.
-[laughs] -Two.
[music stops]
Listen. I called Dr. Socorro. She said she can see us tonight at 6:30.
Does that work for you?
She rearranged some appointments. Isn't that nice?
I already told you that works.
[Alan] Okay. Great.
This could be great for us.
And Juana?
Wait, you mean she should come with?
Of course. It's very important for her to be in a session with us,
so she can finally hear how her daddy doesn't give a shit about my job.
-[sighs] Well, we should ask María Luisa-- -Oh! We should! Thanks for your support.
Great. Want me to go with you?
[sighs]
[sighs] María Luisa!
[suspenseful music plays]
Almost there.
[Nico] It's that one.
[man] There you are. There you are…
Yeah, don't worry. We got her.
[chuckles]
[sighs]
Mari, I left the list right on the fridge.
Oh, and please don't forget the fresh fruit for the twins' lunches.
Also, remember that Tiago's grounded and he can't use the tablet until Friday.
And make sure that Sofi studies for her religion class.
I can tell she doesn't know the Apostles' Creed.
Have a nice, light dinner ready for my husband.
My session will go late tonight.
[suspenseful music continues]
-[crowd chanting on TV] -[sighs]
[phone rings]
Hi, can I help you?
Hello?
Press the button.
[doorbell rings]
-I couldn't hear you. -It's fine. Hold on.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Oof, oof, oof.
[horn honking]
[both grunting]
All right.
[man on radio] If you're listening to this, Mr. President,
I think a lot of people have questions.
They're wondering whether you think it's appropriate,
or in line with democratic norms.
-A government with such wealth… -You mind turning it off?
-Sure. Sorry. -[changes station]
[man] …win against their rivals.
Still waiting for word from the referee to see who takes possession.
[line ringing]
Hey, baby.
[woman] Hey, sweetheart.
-Uh, here's the thing. -[reporter] …late in the second half.
I have to go back to the office. Gabriel has a problem.
You get it. I'm sorry.
[woman] Oh… Should I wait so we can watch our show?
No, baby. No, I'm not gonna make it.
It's kind of a big deal. I have to be there.
But hey, don't even think about watching that episode without me.
If you want to, maybe we can catch up tomorrow? Hmm?
[woman] Okay. That's fine, honey. Love you.
[Araiza] Love you too. Bye.
GOT IT. STANDING BY.
ALERT, THE PIGEON IS ARRIVING TO THE NEST
I HAVE COVID, BUT PEPE'S THERE, AND HE HAS INSTRUCTIONS
The point is he always acts like he can't see me.
He promised he'd quit doing fieldwork as soon as I had Juana.
And guess what. She's eight years old now.
Okay, I told you I'm working on it.
That's the whole reason I'm training Menéndez,
but it's not just gonna happen overnight.
-Menéndez has a stammer. -Hey! Don't discriminate.
Menéndez does not have a stammer. He just gets a little nervous sometimes.
He makes promises he knows he can't keep just to get what he wants.
He lies to me like I'm a criminal in some hostage situation.
Okay, no, I'm not a liar.
I have to massage the truth to save peoples' lives.
God, I mean, come on! Every society is pretty much based on that, right?
Otherwise, our lives would be impossible.
The truth creates problems for people.
-[Victoria] I don't lie. -[laughs]
-Come on, really? -No.
All right. Then why don't you tell us?
Did you sleep with your personal trainer?
Yeah.
Yes, I slept with my personal trainer.
-[Alan] She's lying. See? -No, yeah--
-She's making it up. -No, seriously. I slept with my trainer.
[suspenseful music playing]
Evening, sir.
Hey, what happened to Ramón?
[Nico] He's sick. But not to worry, sir. He got me up to speed.
-They fixed the elevator, by the way. -[driver] All right.
[Araiza coughs]
I'm not sure… I really don't know this guy.
Maybe we should just head out, boss.
Ah, don't be like that, Narro.
Let's live a little. I mean, I already took the pill anyway. Come on.
[bleep]
Just pick me up in an hour.
-Maybe an hour and a half. -[dings]
[Narro] Okay.
[bell dings]
[beeping]
Wow, wow, wow! What a welcome honey!
-If I had known, I would've-- -[man] Hey, shut up. Hmm?
You remember me? Vicente Zambrano.
My diagnosis here, doctor,
is that he's clinically obsessed with getting recognition.
You gotta talk to him.
He is clinically addicted to recognition and probably to adrenaline.
So what? I mean, look at the doctor.
-She must like recognition, too. -Oh!
-She has all these diplomas. Right, doc? -Sit down. Sit down!
No! No, no, no. And stop trying to play her.
-See? He's a world-class manipulator. -No. No, no, no. That's--
He's the king of all the bullshitters. He always gets his way, no matter what.
Meanwhile, my career is just completely disregarded.
There's always an emergency.
-But his job is so much more important! -[mouths]
You have to understand! If I don't go, people will die!
Some of my patients want to blow their brains out! Actually…
Wait, oh! Way more deaths occur from suicide than hostage situations. Mmm!
Yeah, I don't know, doctor. We'd have to examine the statistics, right?
[phone vibrates]
[phone continues vibrating]
Mmm.
-[Victoria scoffs] -Hmm.
-[vibrating continues] -Huh?
Mmm?
I would never.
-Just answer. -I'm not answering.
-Go ahead. -I'm not picking up.
-[Victoria] Take the call. -[Alan] I'm not answering.
-Answer it. -No, I'm not gonna take it.
-She'll see how this works. Take the call! -[Alan] Why do you want me to?
Okay! You want me to answer?
-This is Bender. -[Vicente] Listen, we have a Code Pig.
-Who's speaking? -Agent 44.
From the Special Operations Police Unit.
He's in Iztapalapa. Get close. Wait for coordinates.
Okay. I'm… I'm on my way.
[sighs] I'm sorry. I have to go.
-It's a national emergency. -[scoffs] Right!
They kidnap the president or something? God!
Why did you tell me to pick up the phone?
-I'm sorry about that. Excuse me. -[yells]
[Alan sighs]
-[dramatic music playing] -[alarm bleeps]
This is Alan Bender. [panting]
Okay. I'm on my way to Iztapalapa.
Ready to receive location coordinates from Agent 44.
[man on radio] Copy. We'll get back.
-[phone ringing] -[woman] Pick up the phone, Rubén!
[Rubén] Oh, sure, honey.
-[phone ringing] -[grunts]
-Hello? -[man] Good afternoon.
I'm sorry to bother you right now.
Bender's waiting on the line. And he says it's a Code Pig.
-Impossible. The Pig dropped… -Sh!
dropped off the Chancellor…
He and the First Lady are eating supper at this moment.
Oh, I'm sorry. Must be a mistake, I guess.
[chuckles] Thanks a lot.
[ringing]
-Yeah? -[Rubén] Where's the president right now?
He's with the First Lady. They're eating supper.
-You watching him now? -[Narro] Yeah.
-[server] Want cheese on your tacos? -[Narro] I…
Mmm.
-Where the fuck are you now, you moron? -Language, Rubén.
[Narro] Look, I'm sorry, sir.
I just took him right to his date with the congresswoman.
They're discussing some legislation.
Is he safe? Can you confirm it?
You want me to interrupt the President? He shouldn't be long.
[phone rings]
-Oh, hey, Nico. -Hey, Victoria. Look, I'm really sorry.
I have to cancel our session tomorrow. I'm feeling pretty bad.
What's wrong?
Well, I have tachycardia again and I feel like I can't breathe.
I'm sorry, I don't mean to dump all this on you.
Nico, just breathe.
It's a panic attack, you're gonna be okay.
-Yeah? -I'm really scared, I feel awful.
-All right. Where are you? -In Polanco.
Mm-hmm. Okay. Well, I'll just come to see you. Share your location.
Wait for me, I'll bring you something.
-[grunting] -[Nico] No, don't hurt me! Please!
-[Vicente] Really? "Don't hurt me?" -[Nico] No, no, no, no, no! No!
-[Vicente] Move! -[Nico] Wait! No! I'm sorry!
-[Vicente] What was that? -[Nico] No.
-[woman whimpering] -[Araiza grunting]
-[muffled] Easy! -Hey!
-No touching! -[Araiza grunts]
[suspenseful music playing]
[doorbell rings]
Nico, it's Victoria.
-[bleep] -[bell dings]
-[knocking] -Nico?
-[clicking] -Hey!
-Come on in, Mrs. Bender. -[Victoria] Uh… [whimpers]
-They made me. -[Victoria] What happened?
-[Vicente] Come inside. -Okay, I'm sorry.
[phone rings]
-Hello? -[Rubén] Mr. President.
[chuckles] You're a few steps behind, my friend.
Who's this?
[Vicente] I'm with the Pig right now, and my men are posted everywhere.
Listen to me, okay?
If we see a single one of your guys on this floor or near this room,
we'll murder the president.
I only wanna talk to Bender.
Who are you?
[phone rings]
Yeah. Bender.
-[radio bleeps] -[woman] Code Pig has been confirmed.
Sending location now. Keep the line open.
The kidnapper will only talk to you.
-[siren blares] -Okay. On my way.
FLEAS BEDBUGS
[radio chatter]
[officer 1] You should stick to your taxi, dude.
-All right, let's do this, boys. -[officer 2] Let's go.
[chief] Don't move, sir. This is a covert operation, gentlemen.
No one can know we're here. We're gonna keep it quiet.
We can't have a single leaked message. No calls. No press. Nothing at all.
You all might as well be ghosts. You're invisible, understood?
[all] Yes, ma'am.
[sirens wailing]
Menéndez.
-Yes, sir. We're evacuating. -[intercom ringing]
Good evening. I… I'm sorry to bother you.
-There's a gas leak. -[woman 1] Who are you?
-We need to evacuate. -Wait, who is this? Who are you though?
[woman 2] Oh! I bet it's another Jehovah's Witness.
Uh, no, we're not interested!
Screens over there, please. Uh, place the coffee table here, and some cookies.
And give me a chair, okay?
[computers beeping rapidly]
-[chief] Set up over there. -[officer 3] Quick! We need it ASAP!
Cover all entries and move to the basement.
[power whirring]
-[beeping] -[radio chatter]
Everything's working, Captain.
[chief] Shark squad, head to the green. Dolphins, you're on blue.
Piranhas, block all the internet signals and wait for my instructions.
Octopus squad, wait for evacuation and then head here.
-Jellyfish, on me. All of us go in… -[all] All of us come out!
-[officer 4] Let's go. -[officer 5] Bravo, stay here.
[officer 6] With me.
-[officer 5] Come on, come on! -[officer 6] Hurry!
[officer 7] Come on! Sir! Sir!
-[officer 8] Come on. -[officer 6] Move, move.
[officer 5] Keep going!
[sirens wailing]
[dialing]
[phone rings]
-Talk to me. -[distorted] Bender! How you doing?
[giggles]
-Who is this? -Why don't you call me Lamb?
[Alan] Lamb, huh? Is that your last name?
No. It's symbolic.
[Alan] Symbolic how? Are you cleansing all the sins of the world?
[Vicente] No, just the President's. Get it?
-[Alan] Are you religious? -[Vicente] Yeah… No.
I don't know. What do you think? Huh?
[laughs] Am I gonna sacrifice myself like Jesus Christ,
or have I recently developed a taste for gyros?
-Lamb, can I speak to the president? -[Vicente] Oh!
Yeah, of course. You know, actually, if you want, you can even see him too.
There we go.
[Vicente] They make a nice couple. Huh?
[laughs] And people say that politicians never talk to the opposition. Hmm?
I caught the two of them reaching some very vigorous agreements.
Isn't that right, Congresswoman?
-Hmm? -What do you want?
Hmm. Can I show you something before they block the signal? You ready?
[Alan] Sure.
[Vicente] She was here with her trainer, going hard on some burpees.
-That's not true. -[Vicente] Shut your goddamn mouth!
All right, Lamb, listen to me, okay?
I'll send you a rescue phone so we can talk without the internet.
[Vicente sighs]
Bender, you're not getting it. I call the shots, I make the rules.
I want 30 million pesos. You have 30 minutes.
Open your mouth again. Do it, I dare you.
[urgent music playing]
[officer 5] Jammer in place.
[officer 9] Copy.
-[officer 10] Going up to 624. -[device beeps]
[sirens wailing]
You need to evacuate. Gas problem.
[dance music thumping inside apartment]
[muffled voices]
[woman] Stop…
[music becomes louder]
[music blasting]
-Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey, hey, hey, hey! Hey! -[cheering]
No, no, no, no! No! There's a… there's a gas leak!
No, no! There's a… Guys, there's a gas leak! No!
[cheering and chanting]
No, I'm telling you, there's a gas leak!
Move it, move it. Let's go. Come on, hurry up.
Come on. Move it.
[tense music playing]
[beeping and whirring]
[sniper 1] I have eyes on the President. He's wearing an explosive vest.
Why can't I see the drone?
[officer 4] Lieutenant Márquez borrowed it to record his son's birthday.
[sighs] Piranhas?
In position and ready.
[chief] Copy.
Carrasco, you can't send me home, okay?
If he kidnapped my wife and specifically said he only wants to talk to me,
this has to be personal.
Hey, come here and take a look.
Are those the guys?
Yeah, it looks that way, because the doorman never came back.
We never see him again.
And, a few minutes later, the parking lot security camera shifts away.
-They moved it. -Think they have more guys?
[phone vibrates]
-Fajardo, do me a favor. -Mmm?
Rewind the video, but try zooming in.
We… we need to ev… evacuate.
There's a g… gas leak. You need to come with me.
The whole b… building needs to be evacuated.
You… you all need to get outside.
All right?
Uh… you… do you hear me, guys?
Would you mind?
Hurry up.
-[radio beeps] -Octopus squad?
Wh… what is this?
CANNABIS INFUSED LOVE GUMMY BEARS
-[officer 1] Keep moving. -[Carrasco] The evacuation?
[officer 1] In process. Let's go, please. We're still vacating the building.
Don't worry. We're moving you to a hotel for the night.
-Which hotel? -That's all we know.
-Keep moving. -Is there a continental breakfast?
Of course. You'll have AC and television. Keep moving, please.
-It does smell like gas. -We're still evacuating.
Let's finish exiting the building in an orderly fashion, please.
Keep going, everybody. All the way out. Good night. Thank you.
-All finished boss. -[Carrasco] Copy.
-[device beeping] -Looks like five individuals.
[radio chatter]
[Araiza whimpers]
-[muffled moans] -[Vicente giggles] Whew!
[muffled yelling]
[Vicente] Okay.
-The police are-- -[Vicente] Okay, shut up.
-[muffled complaining] -[Vicente] Okay.
-[Araiza grunting] -[Vicente] All right.
You're about to get a look at the difference between your campaign promises
and your terrible policies.
And every time you see a broken promise, you're gonna press that button. Hmm?
For example.
In my administration, we will have zero tolerance for corruption.
-Hmm? -[Araiza whimpers]
-Mm-hmm. -Now press the button.
[whimpering]
[Vicente] Press that button, please.
-[loud buzzing] -[Vicente] Come on!
-[Araiza moaning] -[laughs]
Okay, let's try one more time.
[Araiza on video] In my administration, there will be no place for favoritism.
[whimpers]
-Mm… -[congresswoman whimpers]
-[loud buzzing] -[Vicente laughing]
There are 200 of these.
[Araiza on video] …so we can ensure free, high quality healthcare
for all our citizens!
-[Alan] Let's see the next image. -[Carrasco sighs] Alan.
-[Alan] What's up? -That was the secretary of the interior.
-What'd you say? -I did my best.
-They want a negotiator from Guerrero. -Guerrero?
They have someone from narcotics with a good record.
-Yeah, I'm sure he's good, I just think-- -Get some rest. Thanks, Alan.
-What? -Yeah.
-How? -I promise to keep you posted. Radio?
Are you serious?
-[gasps] -[line ringing]
[line continues ringing]
Answer, answer, answer, answer.
-Hello? -María Luisa, quick favor.
Uh, can you keep watching Juana?
It's our anniversary. Sorry, I don't know what else to do.
Not to worry, sir. I'd be happy to stay with her. Enjoy yourselves.
[Alan] Thank you so much.
But next Wednesday, I'm going home to see my sister, okay?
Huh? Wait, we said Monday. Not… not Wednesday.
-Would Thursday work better? -Okay, Thursday, but at night, please.
But I don't like to travel at night.
[sighs]
Okay, María Luisa. Make sure Juana goes to bed early, please, okay?
I'll take care of everything, sir. Have a nice night.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Alan panting]
Thank you.
You can't be a part of this.
It's against every FBI protocol in the book.
Yeah, but we're not in the United States, are we?
I don't think their president would run away from his bodyguards
to go meet his mistress, you know?
[woman] American presidents are practical.
They prefer to move their lovers right into the White House.
-[Alan sighs] -I'm sorry, Bender.
But… [sighs]
Alan, can you think of anyone who might want to harm you?
No.
But this guy's a former cop, for sure. Or ex-military.
He's familiar with our protocols, our response time. He knew what to do.
He knew exactly where and when to kidnap the president.
I don't know how he knows me, but he planned this. He thought it through.
And if he asked to deal with me directly,
we both know you can't make him change the rules right away.
It would… it'd make him look weak.
Are you suggesting we simply cave to his request and give him the money?
If you want the president to live, yeah.
[Araiza on video] I promise to oust these freeloading bureaucrats
from our government!
-[crowd cheering] -[cattle prod buzzing]
I will put an end to--
-[buzzing] -[muffled yelling]
[Araiza on video] I will have zero tolerance
for those who try to pick the pockets of our citizens!
Bender.
-[buzzing] -[Araiza groans]
-Do you have my money? -[Carrasco] Funds have been authorized.
[Araiza on video] Gas prices will be the lowest we've seen in decades!
[distorted] Who the hell is this?
Chief of the Special Operations Police Unit, Alejandra Carrasco.
-[buzzing] -[Araiza yells]
You listen to me.
-You put Bender on. -[Araiza on video] My administration…
Or I'm gonna turn this pig into bacon.
-[buzzing] -[Araiza groans]
[Araiza on video] I guarantee transparency in every act of our government,
in every piece of legislation.
-[groans] -Down with the corporate lobbyists!
He's saying he won't talk to anyone except Bender.
[sighs]
Tomorrow morning, we need the president to show up in Congress
like this kidnapping never happened.
None of this can be shared or leaked online to any website or media source.
-Understood? -Of course. Excuse me.
Hmm. And who will be the one briefing the First Lady?
-Not me. -No.
[line ringing]
[woman] Um, hello? I'm sorry, who is this?
The… the president was asked to take part in a secret meeting tonight
at the attor… attorney general's office.
-[device beeping] -[woman] Is this a joke?
You're stuttering like a fucking moron.
[Menéndez] I'm sorry. Don't get… get ma… mad at me.
[beeping continues]
No. His nose was bigger than that.
[radio chatter]
Corona, let me know when you have something.
-Did you find the doorman? -No. Still missing, far as we know.
[Vicente, distorted] Bender?
-Yeah, I'm here. -[devices beeping]
Glad you're back. Missed you. Listen to me.
I left some instructions in the lobby. Look in the desk drawer.
-[Carrasco] The lobby. -So, where's the doorman?
His body, it's gotta be around here somewhere, but, uh, I can't remember.
Or, you know, maybe he's alive. I'm not sure.
Is everyone all right? Anyone hurt?
Do you need food? Medical attention?
How is everybody? Huh?
You know if there's a way to manage or reduce the effect
of these little blue pills?
The president took some.
-[beeps] -No! Bender, Bender!
[beeping]
[Vicente sighs] I don't like being spied on, Bender.
Let me know as soon as the wire transfer is ready.
-[whirring and beeping] -[radio chatter]
I bet this was supposed to be a romantic date. No makeup, though.
She looks exactly like she did when we left therapy.
She didn't shower. She's exactly the same.
-Have we tapped her phone yet? -Uh… yeah.
But there were no texts. Just phone calls.
-[Alan] How many? -[Fajardo] 25.
-Any photos? -[Fajardo] Uh, well…
No, don't tell me. Never mind. Okay. Hey--
[sighs]
No, forget it, I can't look at this.
[sighs]
[Fajardo] So, he said he wants the money transferred to Jesús Hospital.
The donations account.
What do we do? Should we pay up?
-Yeah. -Hmm. Transfer it.
-[sighs] -Hey, Lamb, why Jesús Hospital?
And why so much money?
Because I wanna make a difference in public health. Hey!
The politicians don't care about it.
So, you were sick and the government failed you?
Oh, no. No, Bender. Where'd you learn psychology? Some influencer? God!
All right, Lamb.
[over speaker] The wire transfer's all set.
We gave you what you wanted. Let them go.
Perfect. Let me see.
Presi, get up.
Go to the window.
[suspenseful music playing]
[rapid beeping]
[Araiza] What? I can't see anything.
[Vicente] Look to your left. Lower.
Right down there.
[Araiza] Uh… um…
Oh.
Yeah, yeah. There. I… I see them.
-[Vicente] How many are there? -[Araiza] Mmm… Two.
-Two. -[Vicente] Huh. [chuckles]
[Vicente, distorted] Thank you, Bender. The wire transfer went through.
Okay, take a seat.
Hey, I said take a seat, asshole.
He has to have someone on the outside.
I think it's that guy on the security camera.
They came in together.
His accomplice took out the doorman.
He killed him, dumped the body, and Lamb decided to fly solo in there.
How does he plan to escape?
[Vicente] Okay, it's time to show our honorable president
what the redistribution of wealth actually looks like.
That was healthcare. Now, let's go for education.
I want 30 million pesos wired to the Quetzalcóatl Elementary School.
We can't just keep giving him whatever he wants.
Yeah, I agree. There'll be no end to it.
Okay, you have to trust me. The money's meant to be restorative.
He's trying to rectify the past. It's a form of therapy.
-Therapy! -[sighs]
[Vicente] Bender!
[tense music playing]
[Vicente] Bender, Bender!
Hey, I'm here.
But I really need you to help me.
Tell me how I can show my bosses you're willing to cooperate.
Start your questions with "how."
Uh, avoid saying "yes" and "no."
Try to be firm, not domineering.
Drop the act, Bender. Just tell me what you want.
I want my wife.
-Victoria has nothing to do with this. -[Vicente sighs] Victoria?
You know she doesn't love you.
-Want me to kill her? -[Alan] No. No, no, no. Listen.
She cheated on me, okay?
Just let me talk to her in person. Quid pro quo.
[officer] Get downstairs. Come on.
[Victoria] Hey, I need my phone. I left my cell phone up there.
[officer] Congresswoman Lobatón is secure.
Get her down here right now.
Goddamn it, Lamb!
[Vicente] Try to keep a level head, Bender. Keep a level head.
So what? You saying Lobatón's life isn't worth the same as your wife's?
What the hell do you want?
[Vicente] I told you. I gave you one hostage.
Now you give me 30 million pesos for the Quetzalcóatl Elementary School.
Come on. Time flies, Little Wings.
I know this guy. [sighs]
[wistful acoustic guitar music plays]
-[sighs] -[Alan] I know him.
[Alan] Vicente Zambrano.
He was a sniper with the Special Operations Police Unit.
He was one of our top guys.
But he always had problems with authority.
He was an agitator.
We trained and worked alongside each other for three years.
We did a bunch of operations together.
-[man] What are you doin'? -[Alan] We were good friends.
-[Carrasco] Then what happened? -A stroke of bad luck.
A drug trafficker hijacked a bus full of people and took them hostage.
He was demanding that we let his partners go.
[hijacker] Back off!
I'm gonna kill him! I'm gonna kill him!
Release my partner or I'll kill 'em all!
[mouthing]
[Alan] Zambrano didn't wanna wait for the order.
He thought I was in danger.
Back off or I'll kill him!
[Alan] He fired. He was such a good shot.
He dropped the guy. The hit was lethal.
Unfortunately, all the hostages died in the explosion.
And of course, the press ran with the story.
Zambrano got fired from the Special Operations Police Unit, and…
[handcuffs click]
-He even spent a few years in prison. -[cell door slams]
He always blamed me for not… not doing enough to prevent it.
But… there was nothing I could do.
He thought I might be able, uh…
to make it go away, if I talked to the right person.
But I couldn't help.
And the one who signed his discharge
was the former secretary of security at that time.
Francisco Araiza.
That's right. President Casanova. That's why Zambrano kidnapped him.
[Alan] I don't think he wants him dead. This must be about undoing past wrongs.
I'm sure it's possible to get the president out alive.
Just trust me. Give him what he wants.
What should we do?
[male official] If he knows Zambrano as he knows his wife, then we're screwed.
-[chuckles] -Give him the cash.
We just need the president. The other hostages don't matter.
Authorized, but we want the president.
I set up the wire transfer to the school. We have an address too.
[Alan] Hmm.
Place a tactical team out there!
[Lobatón] Something really weird is going on. These aren't my boots.
-No, but-- -[Carrasco] Guys, take her to the tent.
-Excuse me? Who is that? -Go on, Bender.
Uh, listen, this is all a big mistake. I'm Congresswoman Lobatón.
I don't know what happened. But these aren't my clothes.
You… you need to help me get my clothes back. Please.
[Alan] Okay, Congresswoman. You recognize him?
-[Lobatón] Uh… no. -[Alan] Him?
[Lobatón] Yes. That's the man who kidnapped us.
When did you meet Araiza?
-[Lobatón] Uh… Just a few years ago. -Where was that?
In a Congress session about climate change.
[Alan] And?
And… we met and just… I…
He's… so… charming, and…
-[Alan] And then? -He wanted my number, and…
He called you up?
My room number at the hotel.
I'm surprised.
I always thought you and the president were on opposite sides of the aisle.
[sniffles]
[sighs]
You and your wife don't always vote for the same party, do you?
-We used to. Now, I don't know. -[Lobatón sighing]
Please, uh, don't judge me.
I'm only human, you know? I have some contradictions.
Only God is perfect, and that's the truth.
Yeah. Turns out God's a pretty good excuse for anything, am I right?
[Lobatón] I'm a revered congresswoman.
Show some respect. I have influence.
Who owns the apartment?
[Lobatón] Well… [sighs]
The executive branch. Lots of presidents have used it.
Congresswoman, you'll have to somehow prove to me you're not involved in this.
-Why would I do that to the president? -[Alan] I don't know.
You wanted to be more than just his lover, so you hired Zambrano?
-I only need one husband. -Victoria give you anything for me?
No.
Okay.
Well, she stays here till I say so. If she remembers something, call me.
But I have to get back home. My kids are waiting for me.
Listen to me. Sit down.
Get comfortable. No one's leaving.
Orders from the government.
[sighs heavily]
All right.
[sighs] Was this the guy at the door?
-No. -[Alan] You sure?
Yeah, no. The other guy had, um, bigger eyes.
[Vicente, on radio] Little Wings.
Do you remember? [chuckles]
Yeah. I haven't forgotten.
[sighs] I'm sorry for what I did to you.
My wife has nothing to do with this. I'm the only one to blame, all right?
True. You're right, Little Wings.
It's not fair for your wife to pay for your mistakes.
I just want justice to be done.
We gave you what you asked for. What more do you need?
You have 20 minutes. I want a polygraph.
[Alan] A polygraph? What for?
Zambrano. Vicente!
[dramatic music plays]
[officer 1 shouts, muffled]
[radio chatter]
[officer 2] We're clear.
[officer 3] There's no one in here.
-[officer 4] Status? -[officer 5] Check your left!
[officer 6] Clear in the back!
[officer 7] Hey, guys. We got guns.
Looks like enough for an army. Jesus.
-[officer 8] Status. -[officer 1] Clear in here.
-Clear! -We're clear!
-[officer 2] Move! -[officer 9] Clear over here!
[officer 10] Status?
[officer 11] We got a wall full of notes, plans. He's been at this a while.
[Fajardo] I found his wife.
I tried to use my insurance. Mmm…
Unfortunately, we found out that these…
That the government took my coverage away and canceled my plan
after I was wrongfully fired from the Special Operations Police Unit.
-Our situation is-- -[wife] We also…
We also found out that…
the government just suspended all financial support for chemotherapy.
That applies to every public hospital in the country.
They're trying to reduce federal spending.
-[Vicente] You should rest. -[wife] Making cutbacks.
[Vicente] We… we're not… we're not asking for charity.
But really, if you can help, any amount will make a difference.
And you can consider that money as a down payment for any repair, okay?
Just come in the shop and I'll repair anything at all.
Vicente's not kidding. He can fix any kind of appliance.
He's so good at it.
I'll copy the link right there. Please help.
The two of us, my family,
we're so grateful, we appreciate your time.
She died in 2021, in the oncology center at Jesús Hospital.
She was a teacher.
She worked at that school he mentioned, Quetzalcóatl Elementary.
[sighs]
-Bender. -[Alan] What?
The attorney general.
Zambrano, I want to apologize.
[Vicente] Take your apology and shove it up your ass.
Thank you.
We searched your shop.
The intel work you did was pretty impeccable.
-Congratulations. -See what you're missing?
If it were me, I would've solved it by now.
And how would you do that?
You know me, Little Wings. I notice everything. [chuckles]
[sighs] Listen, I didn't know your wife was sick, and that she had died.
I'm sorry, I didn't think you getting fired would lead to that.
See, Little Wings? Actions have consequences. Hmm?
I saved your life, man, and you didn't even bother to come see me in jail.
[Alan] Yeah, I know. This is all my fault, but…
Please, let me make up for the past. Let me help you out.
We can still fix this, okay? You… you don't have to die tonight.
"Recognize and label the suspect's feelings."
If you die, I won't be able to live with myself.
"Only use empathy tactically."
I'm serious. The attorney general is right here.
If you tell us where the doorman is, and we find him alive--
I know about the attorney general trick.
I swear, she's standing right in front of me. Listen.
This is Attorney General Claudia Ortiz.
I don't care about making it out. I just want that damn polygraph.
[sighs]
[general] Let's try turning off the power.
What is he? MI5, CIA, or a Navy Seal or something?
Why does it matter? He's not coming out of there. He's stuck.
He's unresponsive.
[Fajardo] He's checking transactions somehow.
That means he's not completely cut off from the outside.
Listen to me. We're not giving him a polygraph.
[kicks echoing loudly]
Okay. Sit there.
Yeah, over there.
-What happened to your wife is terrible. -[Vicente] Hey, shut up.
No. I mean it, I'm sorry.
But killing me isn't going to bring her back.
-It won't get rid of the pain. -[sighs]
[Victoria] It'll make it worse. You think she'd be proud of you right now?
No. I'm not gonna fall for that.
Alan has a lot of flaws, but he--
All he really wants, all he's ever really wanted,
is for the two of us to be okay.
And he'd give his life for me. I know he would. [sobbing]
[phone vibrating]
Everything okay, María Luisa? What's up?
[Juana] It's me, Dad.
[poignant music plays]
Hi, sweetheart. What are you doing up so late?
[Juana] Well, I just couldn't sleep,
and María Luisa told me you're not coming because of your anniversary.
Didn't we already celebrate it a little while ago?
Yeah, but our… That was the anniversary of our wedding day.
Tonight we're celebrating the anniversary of when we first met.
[Juana] So, how did you two meet?
Do you remember…
I mentioned that… I was doing my training,
and it was an operation, and--
Oh right!
Mommy went to another doctor. Something like that.
You stayed up talking, you had breakfast together.
Yeah. That's right.
Oh! Well, have fun!
-Thank you. -Can I talk to Mommy?
I wanna say congratulations to her.
Uh… Mommy can't come to the phone right now. She's busy.
I just miss her, Daddy. Where is she right now?
In the bathroom.
Once, she told me she was going to the bathroom,
but she was just checking her phone.
[sighs] Right.
Yes, your mom does do that sometimes.
Dad, you didn't think of taking me with you?
Maybe I should skip school tomorrow
and all three of us can have breakfast together.
Can we?
Sure, baby. May… maybe we can do that.
Okay. When are you coming home?
I don't know exactly yet, baby, but uh, early morning.
-Okay? -Okay.
Sleep well.
Uh-huh. Bye, Daddy.
-I love you. -I love you. Bye.
[sighs shakily]
[sniffling]
[sighs]
-[Alan] You know what the plan is? -[Fajardo] Yeah, yeah.
-[Alan] Good. -[Fajardo] Just be quick.
[Alan] Right. Just cover me, okay? -[Fajardo] Will do.
[Alan] All right…
I don't wanna tell my daughter her mother was murdered.
That's not happening.
When we had Juana,
I promised Victoria that I would stop taking fieldwork.
I promised we'd raise our daughter together.
But I never did quit.
I always assumed that I…
that I had more time, or that there was always tomorrow.
But it's not true.
[breathing shakily]
Victoria always believed in me.
Come on. Give this to the lead agent.
I have to leave here alive, okay? Please, just… I'm begging you.
Please don't… Nico! Nico, we have to do something.
-Please. -Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.
I'm not a personal trainer, Victoria.
You haven't put it together? I'm not Nico.
Vicente's not crazy.
Vicente is a genius.
And he's the only one who can change this country, unlike that bastard.
And he's gonna make sure my sister didn't die in vain.
[Alan] Zambrano, how's it going? [sighs]
[Vicente] Hi, Little Wings. I'm just here, chatting with your wife.
She's telling us all her plans with you…
and your daughter.
But if you don't get me that polygraph,
trust me when I say you're gonna lose it all.
Yeah, I'm working on it, but they haven't authorized it yet.
Give me a few more minutes.
By the way, I'm gonna send you the pizzas you ordered.
Okay…
Do me a favor.
Can you prove that Victoria's still alive?
You have five seconds.
If I don't make it out of here, please promise--
You'll get out alive, I promise--
Don't interrupt me.
[sighs] Right, okay. Go ahead.
Tell Juana that I love her with all my heart.
-Take care of Uncle Esteban. -[Vicente] Time's up!
Over and out.
FREE DELIVERY
[mysterious music playing]
[music fades]
[helicopter circling]
Good evening to the beloved people of Mexico.
We're coming to you from 7 George Bernard Shaw Street.
It's a special night in Polanco.
We're lucky to be here tonight with the honorable president of our republic.
We've got him tied up like this because,
as most of you know, politicians can be very busy.
But tonight, we need some answers from him, and we're gonna get them right now.
This fancy little thing here is a polygraph.
But I have a feeling most of you will know it by its common name, the lie detector.
It's exactly what our government uses.
Tonight, we're going to find out the truth.
The truth about the people who are supposed to be working for us.
Most of these people are terrible at their jobs.
And on top of that, they lie to our faces.
They're our country's worst employees.
But we're not the same as our politicians.
I comply with the letter of the law.
I'm a punctual taxpayer.
I cooperate, I obey and… what do we get back from them?
Bullshit guarantees, ridiculous slogans, and excuses that are absurd.
But tonight, no more corruption.
Tonight, our country's lambs rise up together
and we demand to be told the truth.
Carrasco, if we go by force,
do you think there's a chance we could get him out of there alive?
[Carrasco] Slim to none.
-Give me a number. -Well, it's not just the president.
In a confrontation like that,
hostages and police officers would die too.
And we don't know if he's alone.
He might have accomplices, we haven't been able to confirm.
Give me a number, Carrasco.
70-30. 70 they won't make it.
[beeping]
-[soft radio chatter] -[Alan sighs]
Please, give me…
Give me more time, okay? I know I can work this out.
What should we do?
[sighs] I have an idea.
Let's turn up our little cattle prod here real quick.
-[whirring] -Get ready… and…
So tell me, what did you wanna be when you were a kid?
-President. -[machine buzzes]
What did you wanna be when you were a kid?
President.
[machine buzzes]
Listen to me, you moron.
What did you wanna be when you were a kid?
A winner.
-I wanted to be powerful. -[machine chimes]
He wanted to be powerful.
Okay. First scenario.
The president gets out alive through negotiation
without anyone finding out.
In this version, we all win.
Scenario number two.
We make entry by force, and we get him out either unharmed or wounded.
What would we do then, you ask?
We'd just report some health problem or minor trauma.
Maybe appendicitis, kidney stones, anything.
And, in a few days, we have him back at his desk and working hard
like nothing ever happened.
Scenario number three.
He doesn't make it.
If people ever found out the congresswoman is his lover,
the coalition would simply not survive that crisis.
With that said,
if we can shape all this into a good story,
then we should have no trouble assuring
a legitimate and peaceful transition of power to Regina Bastón.
And meanwhile, we would create
the legend of President Araiza.
We'll say he took a bullet like a true patriot,
that he was a martyr for our democracy.
One possible narrative, President Araiza was on his way to Jalapa
to address its desperate and impoverished people,
when his helicopter suddenly malfunctioned
and unfortunately, he was killed.
[chuckles]
[consultant] What do you think?
After all, dead politicians are always more beloved than living ones.
Have you ever gotten checked out by a psychiatrist?
[sighs] Three times.
Mmm. What did they say?
Narcissist with…
psychopath… pathic traits.
Who's your main henchman?
Augusto… Coronado.
My former driver.
How many properties has Augusto bought for you?
-[Araiza] Two houses in Miami. -[machine chimes]
-Uh… and another in Puerto Banús. -[chiming]
Uh, a yacht… And a jet. It's small, very modest. Very modest.
-[Vicente] Mmm! -[chiming]
During your whole term in office, how much money did he move for you?
I'm not sure I'd be able to give an exact figure.
Oh! Come on, Presi! Just estimate.
[Araiza] About, uh… 120 million dollars.
-[chiming] -120 million dollars! Son of a bitch!
-[device buzzing loudly] -[wailing]
-[buzzing stops] -[groaning]
[sighs]
-[Vicente laughs] -[Araiza groans]
Did you really hire a medium and pay her a government salary
so you could make spiritual contact with your dead dog?
Mercedes has powers, it's true.
[Vicente] Did your children go to a public school?
-No. -[chiming]
When was the last time you took a bus somewhere?
-[Araiza] When I was a student. -[chiming]
How much money did you steal from the construction budget
for the 12th line of the subway?
I took 50 million dollars, okay?
But I didn't keep it! I paid people.
-I used it to lubricate the system. -[chiming]
Everyone does it! It's just how the game is played.
-[machine buzzes] -Tell me what you think.
I mean, as a citizen, what do you think about the game and all that?
-He's corrupt and I wish I hadn't-- -[Vicente] Tell him.
You're corrupt. I wish I hadn't voted for you. You're the reason we're here!
Now there's one last bone to pick.
Is the secretary of the interior aware
of your shady behavior and acts of corruption?
All right, I'm done negotiating. It's time to go in.
If we give him the polygraph, I know we'll be able to move forward.
There is no way we're gonna do that.
-[Vicente] Little Wings, are you there? -[Alan] I'm here, Zambrano. What's up?
[Vicente] As a sign of goodwill and thanks for feeding us,
which is more than the goddamn government ever did,
you get one hostage.
Quid pro quo.
Tell this guy there's no more negotiating unless he gives up the president.
We'll go inside with extreme force.
[suspenseful music playing]
[radio chatter]
Please don't. Let me talk to Zambrano.
Look, I'll get some information so we can keep negotiating.
My wife is in there too.
Bender, we've been very patient with you.
You have ten minutes, understood?
[breathing shakily]
[soft radio chatter]
-[Alan] In the tent. -Alan. Alan!
We have a lot to talk about.
Sit over there.
You recognize him?
-Hmm… Maybe, I… uh… -[devices beeping]
Mm-mm.
[clears throat]
No. No, never seen this guy.
[Carrasco] Take him.
[sighs] Any message from my wife?
-[Nico] No. -Tell me how they got you.
[sighs shakily] I, um…
I… I came down to buy some cigarettes, like always, and…
there was this blue car.
Two men came out, they had hoods on, and they put a gun right to my head and…
Uh, they covered my head too, and then they threw me in the car.
And… all of a sudden, I was in that apartment with the president,
his mistress, and that mental case who says he's a Lamb.
He forced me to call Victoria.
So he has an accomplice.
Ye… yeah. Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Someone.
Yep. Yes, that's him, that's the kidnapper.
[Carrasco] How about him? Is he the accomplice?
I don't know. I told you there was no one else.
-[Alan] What's his escape plan? -What? How should I know?
Why'd he want the polygraph?
I didn't hear anything. He locked me in the bathroom.
[Vicente] How did you like my gift, Little Wings?
Or did you crucify him like the Romans did to Jesus?
Why are you asking me about this hostage?
Well, I… Mmm, I wouldn't want you to accuse me of abuse or anything.
Listen to me, Vicente. You have ten minutes to get out of there.
After that, they're going in, and there's nothing I can do to stop them.
That's all right…
This wouldn't be the first time you sat around
and watched things go wrong.
[poignant music plays]
[Alan sighs]
[Carrasco] What is it?
[sighs] My wife told me, "Take care of Uncle Esteban,"
but he's been dead for a while.
I just keep thinking about it. I don't know what she meant.
What was Uncle Esteban like?
[sighs]
He was a liar. A backstabber. A snake.
I'm wondering if we should look at his injuries.
-Let's get you outta here. -[Nico] Wait, what?
It's all gonna be okay. Mmm.
-Lay down. We'll check your head injury. -[Nico] Why do you mean?
-[Alan] It's bleeding. You're a trainer? -[Nico] None of your business!
-[Alan] Where did you go to school? -[Nico] What is that? No!
-Get off me, asshole! -[Alan] Easy. Take a deep breath.
-Deep breaths. Just breathe. -[Nico grunting]
[Alan] Just breathe. That's it. Okay.
[exhales] That's it.
-[Carrasco] Ready? -[Alan] Ready. Done.
[grunting]
-All right. Check everywhere, okay? -[Carrasco] Yeah.
[Alan grunting]
-[Carrasco grunts] -[Alan] What?
[Carrasco] Take a look at this.
Holy shit.
All right.
Oh. Do you have another glove?
[Vicente] How much money did you steal from the budget
for the 12th line of the subway?
-I took 50 million dollars, okay? -[Vicente] Son of a…
But I didn't keep it! I paid people.
I used it to lubricate the system.
-Everyone does it! -He knew we were gonna block the Internet.
That's why he needed a fake hostage to get the video out.
[Vicente] Now there's one last bone to pick.
Is the secretary of the interior aware
of your shady behavior and acts of corruption?
[Araiza sighs] Regina Bastón…
She's more corrupt than anyone.
She's been in on every government conspiracy.
Hey, chief, we have some visitors.
[tense music plays]
Cover for me?
-Of course. -Okay. Thanks.
Let's go, Fajardo.
[grunts]
Attention, all divisions of the Special Operations Police Unit.
Regina Bastón here. I'm the secretary of interior.
The operation is now being taken over.
From now on, it's in the hands of our secretary of defense,
General Casimiro Zavala.
[power fades]
[static crackling]
[male official] What happened?
-[Bastón sighs] -[Carrasco] What happened?
-Yeah, what's going on? -[Fajardo] They went dark.
This is Secretary of Defense Casimiro Zavala.
Attention, all units. Prepare to make entry.
Our highest priority is President Araiza's safety.
[panting] Outta the way!
-Oh, come on! Let me through. -I can't. I have orders.
Please. I have to save her.
Hit me.
-Say what? -[officer] Hit me!
[grunts] Ow!
Ah, goddamn it. [wincing]
[sighs]
[groans]
-Just go. -Thanks, Charlie.
-[Charlie groans] -Nice job, bro.
[Charlie] All right, now it's your turn.
Aw, come on, man. One guy is enough.
Attention, Menéndez. Listen, Bender's upstairs.
They're going in. Can we stop them somehow?
[Menéndez] Are they gonna k… kill them?
Oh! Ca… ca… cannabis?
[officer] Affirmative. We're almost ready to go.
[panting] Who is it?
Zambrano, it's Bender. Go to channel two.
It's Alan.
[radio beeps]
-What do you want? -[Alan] I want to tell you something.
[gasping] Who's listening to us?
[Vicente] Just your wife right now.
-The president is taking a nap. -Okay.
-That's perfect. Get closer to the door. -What is this?
[Alan] They're comin' in. They're gonna kill everyone.
Please, come closer. I need to talk to you. I saw your video.
I'm warning you. I'll use your wife as a shield.
What do you want?
[Alan] Listen, I'm unarmed.
I don't care about the president.
And if you end up dead, I might be sad for a couple of days, but…
Look, I'm here for Victoria.
I have the video here with me. It's incredible.
The thing has to go viral ASAP.
Everybody has to know about this, man.
But the only way that's gonna happen is if you give me Victoria.
This is it, Vicente.
You lost. Trust me. You have no other option.
Maybe my option is to shoot them all.
[Alan] But you don't want that. That's not why you're here.
[Alan panting]
[soft thumping]
-[officers shouting] -[running footsteps]
[Vicente] How do I know you'll share the video?
I swear on the life of my daughter.
Let me inside. Let me take Victoria's place, okay?
What do we say?
All of us go in…
[breathing heavily]
All of us come out.
[emotional music plays]
[inaudible]
[gasping]
[Charlie] Shark squad here. We've got a hostage. It's Bender's wife.
-Where'd she come from? -[static buzzing]
[Fajardo] Uh, I don't know. This is… really weird.
Was our closed-circuit hacked?
-[Bastón] Where's Bender? -[Fajardo] I don't know! He was there.
Just fix it.
-Alan… Wait, he's still inside. Go back! -[Charlie] Let's go. Just keep moving.
-This is a dangerous situation. Easy. -[officer 2] Don't worry.
-[grunts] -[Charlie] It's too risky.
[Alan] I promise we're gonna make it out alive.
[panting] Here. Here. This is good.
-[Araiza panting] -[Zavala] Commencing countdown now.
In 60…

-58… 57… -Just wait please. My husband's inside.

-48… -[coughing]
-[Zavala] 47… 46… -Zambrano's willing to destroy evidence.
-He'll let you go and turn himself in. -[Zavala] 45…
If you agree not to press charges, this could all be over.
[Zavala] 43…

-[exhales] There you go. -[Zavala] 24…
-The evidence against you is gone. -[Zavala] 23…
[Menéndez, on radio] Co… come in! Attention all units.
Bender is in the room.
How about we let him work his magic?
-Bender's our friend. -Turn it off!
-It's not how this Chinese software works. -[Menéndez] He taught us all we know!
You're dismissed, agent. You just disobeyed a direct order.
I accept the consequences. You're right, General. [munching]
But he's a beloved colleague who's putting his life on the line to save us all.
And we've been here for hours.
I mean, we're starving, and sleep-deprived. I'm so tired.
It's time to end this, all right?
[tense music continues]
[Menéndez] We all just wanna get this over with and go home,
but we have to support Bender.
Everybody is one.
And one is everybody.
Jail for two full years.
-One year. -Year and a half.
-Fine. -Deal.
[Alan chuckles]
[beeps]
[Vicente] There.
-[Velcro ripping] -Ah… we're taking him in his underwear?
-[Araiza sighs] Okay. -[Alan] There.
-[Vicente] Come on. -[Araiza groaning]
-[melancholy music playing] -[officer 1] Get back!
[Charlie] Show us your hands. Move it! Keep moving forward!
-Let's go, goddamn it! -[officer 2] Hurry up!
[Charlie] Faster! Keep your hands above your head!
-[officer 3] Move it! -[grunts]
-[officer 2] Don't move! -Okay!
[Charlie] Spread 'em, asshole. All right. Get movin'!
-[busy radio chatter] -[coughs]
-[Victoria gasps] -[Alan] Oh!
[Victoria sobbing]
[Alan] Mmm.
-Are you okay? -Yes!
You sure? Mmm!
[sighs]
[Victoria laughs]
[Victoria kisses] God, I can't wait to see Juana.
[Alan] I know. Neither can I.
-Hey, shall we give her a call? -Yeah.
[Alan] I love you.
-I almost believed you. -[both chuckle]
-[Bastón] Mr. President. Glad you're okay. -[Alan] Mr. President.
-Carrasco. Thank you so much. -Fa… fantastic work.
-I'll get fired for sure. -No. I don't think so.
Menéndez. Congrats.
-You're ready for this. -[Fajardo] They'll really fire you?
[Alan sighs]
[helicopter circling]
[music fades]
Who won the game, you guys?

4 MONTHS LATER
["Que Chingón" by Alejandro Lora Serna plays]
[man on TV] Breaking news.
The identity of the mysterious "Lamb" has finally been brought to light.
A man named Vicente Zambrano
kidnapped the president three months ago and held him hostage,
during which he recorded now-viral footage of the head of state confessing
to a number of indiscretions in his administration.
This quickly became the most-viewed video in the history of our country.
It reached an astonishing 370 million views in just five days,
in addition to provoking a series of massive protests nationwide.
The legend of the Lamb has since become an emblem of social justice,
and the movement has resulted in the resignation
of President Araiza and his cabinet.
The protests have also provoked Congress to hold elections
for an interim president to lead the country for now.
[female reporter speaking Japanese]
[continues speaking Japanese]
A former Special Forces police officer who has now become a global icon.
Zambrano is currently being detained in a prison in the city,
and is undergoing psychiatric treatment.
The authorities are not revealing his exact location
for fear of generating further unrest.
[all chanting] Cordero! Cordero!
Cordero! Cordero!
Cordero! Cordero! Cordero!
[cheering]
[Vicente] Whoo!
[crowd chanting]
["Que Chingón" continues]
Cordero! Cordero!
ARAIZA, RESIGN ALREADY!

UNPRECEDENTED
[song ends]
So, marriage is nothing like a hostage situation.
It's not an event with a definitive start and a clear end.
I mean, that is unless you want to get a divorce.
Right, my love?
Right! No question.
No question. It's never good to constantly seek out confrontation.
But it's also not healthy to avoid conflict,
because that creates other problems.
-Big ones! [laughs] -Right.
And that's the central idea we want you guys to think about.
My partner is not holding me hostage.
I'm not trying to get away.
-Thanks so much. -[Alan] Yes. Thank you.
-Thank you. -Thanks, guys.
Not a big crowd, huh?
[sighs] Not exactly.
-Well, you take forever to respond. -I take forever?
-That's 'cause you keep interrupting me. -I interrupted you?
-Oh. Yeah, yeah. Let's go. Yeah. -I'm sorry. Excuse us, sorry.
How many people did you count? I got 23.
-No, 25. It was more. -You think so?
-Yeah! It wasn't that bad. Not too bad. -More than I thought. [groans]
-[Victoria] You seem upset. -[Alan] Don't label me.
-[Victoria] I'm not-- -Hey, guys! So, are you getting a divorce?
-[Victoria] No! -[Alan] Yes.
-[Victoria] Yes? -[Alan] No?
What are we gonna do with all this?
-Let's take it home, huh? -[phone vibrates]
-What's up? Who is this? -All right. Okay, let's pack this up.
[Vicente] Bender. Do you remember me?
-Of course I do. -[Juana] So, yes or no, Mom?
-[Victoria] We thought about it, but no. -I've had a lot of time to think in here.
And I've realized that what we did together was the start of something big.
Not sure I follow you.
-[man whistles] -Well, I'm basically a celebrity, so…
I been thinkin' about it.
Me and you could really make a big difference in this country.
But from the inside.
[upbeat music playing]
What do you think? Let's take the bull by the horns together.
LAMB FOR PRESIDENT
[sighs] Eh…
-I don't know. -[Victoria] Come on. Let's go, baby.
We'll see.
