[Malala] Stop playing that stupid little song already!
-Seriously! -[music stops]
What's all this mess about? Tell me!
Clean all this up, the cleaning lady isn't coming today
and stop watching that garbage!
It's not nonsense. I'm doing that when I grow up.
[laughs] You're so, so adorable!
-[laughs] -[ominous music playing]
I thought you were a lot smarter, my love,
and that you had actually realized
that you won't ever be able to do anything.
Because you're of absolutely no use, sweetheart.
With a little help from your mommy, what you're going to do
is get married
to a millionaire.
Did you get that?
Good.
[Delfina] My mother wasn't right about anything.
She cruelly mocked each and every one of my dreams.
And now look at me.

-[music concludes] -[crowd cheering, applauding]
[Delfina] It wasn't easy getting to this point.
Big projects are always challenging.
[tense music playing]
This is utter madness. Marquess, this woman here is a criminal.
You can't possibly fall for her lies as well.
I didn't know anything, Fede!
Come on, Delfina. Drop the act. Nobody believes you.
Prince Federico, I know it's hard to believe.
But Delfina was deceived by Severino.
Yes. Justice has been served and he's in jail now.
And now we have the opportunity to start from scratch.
Marquess. Delfina tried to murder me, and you leave me with her?
[Delfina] I had nothing to do with it, it was Severino.
-Severino had the idea. -[music concludes]
He took you to the ship. [sobs] Do you know why?
It's because Severino...
-happens to be Daisy's real father. -[dramatic music playing]
[Delfina] I'm sorry.
[whimpers] I'm sorry.
I feel so stupid. I'm sorry I couldn't take care of you guys.
[sobs] I'm begging you to forgive me.
Mom was right about only one thing. And that's that people are stupid!
-[sobs] -[music concludes]
As the Marquess rightly said, we'll be spending a lot of time together.
Just the four of us together. So exciting!
So, I've been thinking, what better way to make them happy
than to give them the south wing of my tower, so they can live in it?
Above all, it allows us to be together, safe and protected. Does that sound good?
And I also thought an enormous garden, a tower pool that's private,
a barbecue area for grilling with friends. [exclaims]
When I describe this tower I think to myself,
"I'm living with them forever!" [excitedly] Are you in?
[soft music plays]
[sighs] It's useless.
I don't know how, but they disabled the spying device.
Hans has no news either. Delfina and the Marquess are silent.
Nothing. The tower entrance is armored.
-I can't get in. -We're done.
No stream, no money, no proof, there's nothing we can do, guys.
No, let's not be pessimistic either.
We made some mistakes, yes, but life always gives a second chance.
Are you saying that because we actually trust Rey
or because of what you did to Zeki?
-Did you tell them? -I don't know who talked.
-But I think they have a point. -[lively music playing]
We can't make that mistake again. I know I made a mistake. I admit it.
-I trusted. But never again. -[music concludes]
I know how I'll escape. And you're coming with me.
No. There's no way I'm leaving Daisy here alone.
-Daisy hates us, Mar. -She doesn't hate us!
She's totally confused. Those are two totally different things!
And besides, it's understandable,
after all those bombshells she had to hear,
she's having Delfinesque outbursts.
Even more so then if we escape now we can help her stop having outbursts.
[inhales deeply]
Let's say we escape, then what?
There has to be something that we could do from here.
[brooding music playing]
[Margarita] When the Marquess came to find us, I felt a flikiti.
A flikiti that was very weird. A dubious end to the season.
Yeah, of course!
-The Marquess brought us to this prison! -[shushes]
I trust my intuition.
But, just in case, I consulted my fairies.
SOS, Feeling Fairy. You must tell me what to do!
[Feeling Fairy] It's always a good idea to look in the mirror to know who you are!
The river brought us all the way here.
It brought us to a crystal palace, all made of glass, full of mirrors!
-We were supposed to be here. -No, Mar. Absolutely not.
-Or, maybe, but with Delfina in prison. -[music concludes]
Maybe we were brought here so we could redeem Delfina.
[scoffs, chuckles]
Uh, nobody dreams of becoming a villain. She may have been rich in gold.
But she was very poor when it came to love, Fach.
Hmm?
Her mom is Malala.
-Yes. -[Margarita] Well.
No matter how much you believe in magic, Delfina isn't changing.
Let's make a bet.
[Delfina chuckles] Didn't I tell you? People are extremely stupid!
Someone's in big trouble. Speaking of stupid...
If this goes well, we have to be presidents.
There are too many balls to catch!
Ready to score the offside? Ready to score the goal? Yes!
Sorry, are you a sports journalist now? What's with this new trend?
Soccer WAG. I'm dating a ten from the first division.
I'm keeping his name to myself, I don't want you to steal him.
What's with the gum? Why are you talking like that?
Swallow it, stick it to your palate or your hair if you want.
Give me news on the cave of the creeps.
-[Ada] Excuse us, but we would like... -[Pipe clears throat]
...to give our opinion.
Rey is not a traitor after all.
Are you telling me you don't remember all the times he helped us?
Come on, what other explanation do you need?
[indistinct chatter over tablet]
You're sure they don't suspect at all that we're spying on them, right?
Absolutely, Rey hid the cameras really well.
Are we ready to continue with the plan, then?
-Yes, but will they buy it? -They'll definitely buy it.
The important thing is cutting off their hero act
so they can stop bothering me!
[cellphone ringing]
Mar? How are you? We're all so worried about you.
[Yamila as Margarita] Little prince, I'm sorry,
but I can only call you now.
No need to worry, I'm super, super, relaxi taxi.
-Taxi relaxi. -[comical music playing]
-How do I know it's you? -Because sono io, Merlino.
-Okay. Turn on your camera. -Turn on my camera?
[Delfina] You might be wondering if anyone is stupid enough
to fall for the same trick twice.
Here I am!
It's me in flesh, prince.
I don't know. I have doubts. What if you're an AI?
I'm offended, Merlin. My intelligence is natural.
[music concludes]
What are you up to?
How are you? We're getting ready, we have a show later.
Oh, right, you're the owner now and we have to ask you everything.
Or, if you want, we can curtsy, your highness.
-Ah... -Don't you dare play dumb,
there's only a few of us, we know each other well.
If you were unbearable when you were a nobody,
-who will tolerate you now? -Stop. You're embarrassing yourself.
Wow! Do you have your own John Paul? I can't believe it.
It's a shame that this dog is a stray, babe.
Don't pay attention to the stupid things they say.
How are you?
How could I be? I don't know.
I'm feeling lost, I don't even know where I stand.
It confuses me that the person who wanted to kill me
is now taking care of me, it seems like a joke. [chuckles]
[gentle music playing]
And were you...
really helping Delfina?
Were all my suspicions...
and hunches actually true?
No. I always played and will always play for one person.
Yes. For yourself.
No, Mar. For you.
You're adorable. You're two peas in a pod, no? [chuckles]
-[dramatic music playing] -You're both liars.
Both traitors.
And social climbers. Aren't you?
[music concludes]
What's this the press is saying, that Delfina is your legal guardian?
What nonsense is that?
Severino tricked her. She's always been nothing but loyal to us.
And Rey? Why'd he turn his back on us? Why won't he answer us?
That's what I wanted to tell you about. I didn't know how to tell you...
-He betrayed us, didn't he? -[Yamila as Margarita] No! No, no, no.
What happened is that... [sighs]
...Rey and I are together now.
If he won't talk to you it's because he feels really guilty.
-[pensive music playing] -I know it hurts, Merlin.
But he loves me. And I deserve to be happy.
-[music concludes] -[Delfina] You see?
People fall into the same trap two, three, sometimes four times.
Because they're... [sighs] Yes. You get it now.
-Do you want the truth? -[Yamila] Hmm.
If it weren't for all the soccer metaphors you're using lately,
I'd say you did a great job. I'm proud of you.
Oh! [gasps] Oh! Something came for you.
When? Now? When did something come? What do you mean? What kind of thing?
-Now you remember to give it to me? -The match is over.
[whistle blowing sound effect]
-[door closing] -[exhales sharply]
-I do understand your concern, Ada. -[music concludes]
But the court determined that Delfina is the legal guardian of the young royals.
Yes, but Marquess,
don't you see the danger of leaving the children with that woman?
She tried to kill me!
That's already been proven to be a simple charade, Ada.
The royal siblings had to be looked after, including Daisy.
Don't worry so much, Ada.
I have my guardians in there taking care of them.
But until the day comes when they come of age,
they must remain under Delfina's guardianship.
When they come of age?
But Marquess, in Krikoragan, that's 21 years old.
We cannot leave the kids to their own devices!
I can't do anything else.
Okay, but at least send me over there as governess!
[Marquess] That won't be possible, my dear.
[inhales] Delfina specifically requested that it be someone else.
On behalf of the Crown, I thank you for your services.
-[sighs] -[comical music playing]
I'm fired?
I'm fired.
[Única] I never told you I was Única.
[Otto] But I can tell.
What I hadn't realized is the chemistry between us.
[Única] Will you take the plunge and take a chance?
Or will you just blindly chat away?
-[cellphone chimes] -[chuckles]
Otto, cut it out, dude!
Whether it's Única or a fake, it's extremely stupid!
I understand you're going through a rough patch, okay?
-Don't be this way. -[music concludes]
-Thank you. -[Zeki] What do you want?
Oof!
To be here, Zeki.
-And for what? -What do you mean, "for what?"
[Zeki] If I remember, you had two reasons for being here.
Your relationship and the stream. The stream has been ruined.
And you ruined your relationship too, so, ciao.
-Don't be like that, Zeki, please. -[playful music playing]
No. Don't look at me that way. As if I were the intense one.
What you did hurt me a lot.
If you don't know what you want with me, go your own way, Jano.
No biggie.
CORRECTIONAL FACILITY NO. 15
Don't you dare lay a finger on me.
I am the legal guardian of royal children. I have diplomatic immunity, move it.
[suspenseful music playing]
[door closing]
I'm sure Ali will learn a lot of French while he's there.
[music concludes]
Okay, Mom. I have to go now. I love you.
My mom and Ali are already settled in at the French Embassy.
-They gave them asylum. Are you okay? -I don't know what to do.
Fach won't answer. We don't have a plan. It's impossible to be okay like this.
Maybe things didn't end up the way we thought.
Perhaps Fach used us to get himself named crown prince.
Now, that they've done it, they don't need us.
Neither he nor Margarita.
-Don't talk nonsense. He's not like that. -[Merlin] Are you so sure of that?
You never get to know people's true intentions.
They say they're going A, but then they just go B.
You're more pathetic than usual when you're jealous.
No! Former Little Prince, that's not the way to go, sir.
Don't allow yourself to be deceived by simple appearances.
Delfina is an expert at manipulation. There's something worse than a villain.
An intelligent villain.
Delfina is a villain and very, very intelligent.
Therefore...
An intelligent villain.
-Very... -Intelligent.
-[door lock buzzes] -[pensive music playing]
-Hello. -[Severino] Did you receive my gift?
If I'm here, it's because of the time we spent together.
[Severino] No, if you're here,
it's because I am a very resourceful person.
And even from here I have a lot of power.
There are two scenarios here.
Either you betrayed me...
or it was all part of a very elaborate plan.
If it was a plan, I would've liked to have known about it.
If it was betrayal...
you know I never forgive.
It was obviously a plan.
But sometimes in life, whenever you're feeling cornered,
you're forced to give up an important piece.
Listen, my little checkmate...
if there's one piece you don't give up, it's the king.
You might be the queen.
But if I fall, everything else falls.
Relax, honey.
Don't worry.
You'll see, very soon, we'll be enjoying our good fortune, just us,
in the most exotic places in the world.
-[sighs] That's great. -[soft music playing]
I thought you couldn't be stupid enough to ever betray me.
I will never betray you.
I love you.
To keep stupid people at ease, simply tell them what they want to hear.
[dramatic music playing]
-[music concludes] -Daisy. Please, at least listen to me.
I have nothing to say or hear from you or Margarita.
[Fach] I know you're angry. And I understand. I truly do.
But know we're all victims here. Not just of the Pietros.
Also of Delfina. She knew this all along. And she lied.
You're just like her, because you also lied to me.
I lied to you as well. So I could infiltrate.
What I feel for you is the most real thing I've ever felt for a woman in my life.
Wow! You don't know how touched I am.
Don't give us the cold shoulder. Please, Daisy.
We also want to help you find your story, okay?
-[suspenseful music playing] -I don't like it when we're fighting.
-I don't like that you don't trust me. -I trust you.
But I would've preferred that you trusted me
and told me about your plan.
But what I'm doing, I'm doing for both of us, my love.
-[Gomez clears throat] -Yes, I know. We can't do this, I'm sorry.
-You have to leave now, ma'am. -[sobs] I don't want to leave.
Yes.
Gomez. I need to talk to Romano. Do me this favor.
[music concludes]
You know what the problem is, Margarita? I used to have a story.
Until you two came along. And now all I want
is for you to stop bothering me, that's all I want.
-[door closing] -Relax, it's me.
What a face! Dealing with that guy Fach again?
[sighs] I swear I can't stand him, I can't deal with him.
-[sighs] -We're even a match in that respect.
But yeah, I also think he's conceited and a nosy dude.
Forget about him, I have something to show you.
-[tense music playing] -Oh.
You're not going anywhere. I have a lot of things to tell you.
-Oh, for the love of... -Come here. You have to be very stupid
not to realize who to be loyal to and who to betray.
And to be honest, you're being stupidly stupid.
You have tripped over the same thistle a thousand times.
The thistle bug. She's your kryptonite, don't you see?
On top of that, you take her to your home?
[Fach] There's no use anymore. She hates us.
And she's not well.
Daisy, who was all sweetness, she's been poisoned.
♪ I made my life traveling the world ♪
-♪ And it's all a story ♪ -[chuckles]
-♪ That lasts a second ♪ -[chuckles]
-Do you like it? -[Daisy] I love it!
-That voice? -What happened to that woman?
-The one who was there? -I don't know.
The editor says that she wasn't in any image.
I told you that I hadn't seen her.
[sighs] Everyone thinks I'm crazy, but I swear, I know I saw her.
Enough, let's leave her alone.
-What are you doing here, Fach? -[Fach] What are you doing here?
[Torino] What are you doing here?
She doesn't want you here. I don't want you here.
The room doesn't want you here. All right, Ciao. Go away, via.
The little popstar's got some nerve.
So many years with your mommy and you didn't learn
to close the little valve of your heart so as not to cloud your reason!
I know how to handle my feelings just fine.
-When you're alone. -[suspenseful music playing]
But when the Thistlebug shows up?
-Let's resolve this without a scene. -Take this fraud away.
-And both of you, leave my room. -Daisy, please don't.
Don't you realize that you're just another conquest for this...
-filthy charlatan? -[music concludes]
How many times must I tell you this same lesson, Delfina Jr.?
Let's see if you can learn with that tiny miniscule brain of yours.
Women are not conquests, they make choices.
It seems you haven't been chosen that much.
Maybe because you use words like "filthy charlatan."
Try and update your 21st-century software a bit.
[somber music playing]
C'est fini. We're gone. We're leaving, Fach.
My God!
It's simply amazing.
Those are the same words you used
when I was little and full of so many dreams.
[laughs] Dreams, dear? Or utter nonsense?
-Dreams. -Hmm.
And now, I'm living the dream of my life. And look where you are now.
You need to re-examine the concept you have of nonsense.
Don't let your dream turn into a nightmare! You're so stupid!
-[gate closing] -[music concludes]
♪ Let me kiss you ♪
[Daisy chuckles]
[Torino] We look good on camera, don't we?
We're like two lovers, like in the movies.
You really think so?
We should star in a romantic comedy together. [chuckles]
Mm. I doubt any producer would wanna hire me.
There must be much better actresses for that role.
But none as beautiful as you, Principessa. And besides, we shine together.
There's something here. Like chemistry or magic.
-No. -What do you mean?
We finally meet in person. I was looking forward to meeting you.
-I was the one looking forward, Torino. -[comical music playing]
Relax, girl. I haven't forgotten about you either.
The three of us have to do something. I saw you dancing, un fuoco.
-Ciao. Tutto bene? -Tutto bene.
-Do you have my number? -No.
-Put it in. -[gasps]
I adore spending time with you.
You're super funny, talented, you're just perfect.
But as a friend.
I would never be with someone like you, because I know the kind of guy you are.
[music concludes]
Oh! Dear god, I can see your eyes like a radar, searching for a way out.
Put an end to this idea of escaping, I'm begging you.
This needs to be resolved from within.
Because Delfina may be stronger than us.
She may have money, judges, and things I can't even imagine,
but what we can do is put up a fight for her soul, you get me?
In fact, I already have the name for the mission.
"Let's rescue the lost heart of Delfina Santillan!"
[sighs] Your fables sound pretty.
You must stop being so optimistic and having faith in humanity.
Oh, if we're becoming advisors, then we'll do it together.
-I have two pieces of advice. -Mm-hmm.
Have more faith in yourself, and don't give up on Daisy so easily.
-[gentle music playing] -I don't know what you're on about.
Oh. Please, if you die, you die of love for her
and you won't win her over with explanatory words.
-[sighs] What do I do? -Write her a song, Federico Augusto!
Write her a song that says everything you feel for her.
Okay.
I've lived it before. I've been tricked. Not once, not twice, but three times.
If I don't learn by the third time, I'm an idiot.
[chuckles] All right. Look, first of all, I don't cheat.
Because I've never had formal relationships.
-I know what you're going to say... -[sighs]
...that you don't want casual relationships.
But it just so happens that with you, I don't either.
You would be very special to me. We are way too young to close our hearts.
Don't let one, or two,
or well, three... [chuckles] ...bad experiences make you resentful.
You're clearly a good person.
A sweetheart.
I fared quite badly by being good and sweet.
That Daisy no longer exists.
[music concludes]
-[door lock buzzing] -[suspenseful music playing]
Severino Montfleur.
Hmm. What a surprise. I can't believe you ended up here.
-Uh, a misunderstanding. -Hmm.
-I have to ask you a favor. -A favor?
Well, how interesting. [chuckles]
I need to go out to take care of some business.
You must know that that's pretty complicated, don't you?
Let's say I accept.
So, tell me, Montfleur,
what are you offering me so that I let you go out...
and have your little outings?
Oh, little ones. That's what your mother called you.
[music concludes]
How proud she'd be to see the three of us like this.
Now, hopefully Andrés will join us soon, you know?
Enough of this silly, pointless war between us.
You'll be under my care for a long time.
We have to use that time to do nice things together.
To try to make up for lost time.
You kids have suffered too much.
I have suffered too much.
-It's not fair to us. -[dramatic music playing]
We have to be able to be happy. So then I thought...
why don't we do something that we love together?
Together, something we all enjoy doing.
I'm thinking that art, creativity, and music are things we all love.
That's why I want to ask you to join Take a Chance on Reina.
[music concludes]
-Oh, Delfi, look... -[Delfina] Yes.
-...we are very grateful for everything. -[Delfina] Ah.
We accept.
-Yes? -Yes?
-[upbeat music playing] -Yes. We accept.
