A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
I think the news...
...likely guilty...
...numerous...
Owners and lawyers grateful...
Andrés Valverde and...
Failure is not an option.
Maintained.
Can you get the trust from your grandfather?
A prize for doing...
nothing.
I can't believe you're getting married.
Diego loves me to death.
And for your birthday, Pabi?
Lots are missing.
Six months.
You're a dealer.
Good morning.
Morning.
You're still here?
It's your mom.
What are you getting Pablo?
We have no idea.
I don't like grapefruit.
- Ma'am... - What?
Eat it. It's all we have.
Mary's not getting paid, so you have no right giving her that look.
You think I want to live like this?
Do you think I want to live like this?
In godawful pain, doped up,
seeing my brother try so hard
to maintain a facade for my sake.
Santiago.
You're late.
I didn't know you were in a rush.
It's great to see you here.
After your dad defrauded half the club, I'm surprised they let you in.
I'm joking.
It's good to see you.
Your dad being locked up in jail
doesn't mean you have to be shut in at home.
I've got your order.
I'm gonna need something for Saturday, too.
- No, man. - What do you mean "no"?
This is the last one.
I thought we let that thing with your closeted brother go.
Or did we?
It's over, man.
I'm retiring.
Okay.
You're the new girl.
It's great to have you here, Sofía.
HR tells me you studied marketing
and that you spent the last six months working for a dating app.
I'm a big fan of the magazine. I'm looking forward to working here.
I read what you wrote for the interview, and I think you have an interesting voice.
The first article is free.
I hope you choose something you really like.
- How's it going, Matías? - Nacho.
- I'm going to miss the extra money. - We all will.
No more dealing?
No, it's over.
This has been one of the best months.
I know, but it's officially the last day.
Okay.
What a day. I never thought I'd come.
Hey.
Have you seen Lorena?
- You don't know? - What?
If I told you, she'd kill me.
No, don't be like that.
Look, if you want, I'll give you my cut.
Look, all I can tell you is that she
is the school's new big entrepreneur.
- Lorena, I love you! - Matías, go to hell.
- Good morning. - I have to hand in a project on Friday.
Last week, you had an exam...
Are you selling or what?
Addy.
- That's why, man. - Yeah.
Hey, homies.
I'm inviting you two for drinks, so we can talk about some things.
No, thank you.
It's not optional.
I'll see you in the restaurant
when you've finished your homoerotic game of tennis.
"Homo" what?
Hello.
Hi.
Sorry I didn't call.
Don't worry about it.
- If a boy doesn't call, I get the message. - Hey, no.
- I don't know if you know. - No, I don't believe I do.
My brother had an accident.
He spent three days in the hospital, and my parents...
I have a better idea.
Tell me about it over dinner.
It's my birthday today.
We're having cake later.
Better yet,
I'll bring you a present.
A surprise.
- Bye-bye, happy birthday. - Hey.
I'll send you my address.
Okay.
Pablo,
you're pushing it. I said ten minutes.
Zua, I'm sorry.
If anyone finds out I let you in, I could get fired.
I told you, if anyone asks, tell them I'm Matías' guest.
They don't even want you to be let in as a guest.
Okay, I'm leaving.
I only have ten.
You're too much. Get out of here.
Okay.
- Zua. - Yes.
Can you break that for me?
I'll pay you back as soon as I can.
- When? - I don't know. Tomorrow maybe.
Make sure of that.
Yes. Thanks.
It's Bernardo.
Jonás.
- What's wrong? - Hurry up,
it's Bernardo. We're having lunch with his mother.
Okay.
I can't do this anymore.
What do you mean?
All this sneaking around. You having to go to that guy.
You talk as if it's been going on forever.
We've been doing this for a month.
- Almost a month. - Fine, almost a month. What's next?
No, I only like other people's drama.
Please, don't do this.
Leave him.
I told you I love you and want to do things right.
Leave him.
It's not like he's my boyfriend.
He's my husband. We made a pact. It's not that simple.
But you don't love him.
You need to be patient. I don't know what I'm going to do.
Do you love me?
I love you.
It's just that I have a life.
So do I. And I want to share it with you.
I know that you don't want to be with me
- because of my job. - It's not that.
No, wait. Let me finish.
I'm not going to sell drugs anymore.
I know The Club is over,
- but... - No.
It's all you've known.
No.
I'm buying a bar.
- A bar? - Yes.
That's why I wanted the money. To have my own place.
It already has lights, equipment and everything.
I want to live a good life. I want to do things right.
And if I can, with you.
I'm getting a coffee. Want anything?
No, thank you.
Time's up. That's it for today.
Thank you, Doctor.
Impressive, Lorena.
I don't think it's a good idea I continue dealing.
And why is that?
There are cameras in my school.
And?
I got called to the principal's office.
What did you say?
That she owed me money from before,
and I gave her pills for cramps.
You got them off your back, then.
Yes, but...
Remember that not even your father could have gotten you out of rehab.
You owe me.
What's wrong?
Sorry.
I have to sell all of this.
If I succeed in selling it,
- it's finished. - Is it a lot?
- My God. - I told you that...
I need you, Lorena.
I don't get it. Who's making you do this?
When my mom...
got sick, I had to borrow money to get myself out of a tight spot.
I'm in debt to a guy.
I don't even know if I'm in danger.
Why don't we talk to my dad?
- He could... - No, it's that...
If they get him
and he tells them what we've been doing, I could go to prison.
And after all this...
After all this, my mom dies within a few weeks.
Didn't she die when you were a kid?
- Yes. - How long has this been going on?
It's very complicated.
It's complicated, Lorena. It's complex.
It's very complex.
Pablo, did you hear anything I said?
Misappropriation of funds.
We'll take care of it, but for the time being,
everything your father touched is frozen.
He had access to the account,
and it seems that's where he diverted the 80 million pesos.
Is there anyone who can help you? Your mom?
I have no one.
I have nothing.
She's a zombie.
When your dad does something like this, people want nothing to do with you.
If you haven't been through it, you can't understand.
Well, let's not be dramatic, you studied economics,
so you'll have to manage...
Of course.
Manage nothing.
My grandpa's money is our only hope to pay for everything.
I know this isn't the best time, but... as we discussed.
Your fees.
I'll take care of it.
Do you accept Monopoly money?
You need to keep a positive attitude.
Hello.
Where are you?
At the lawyer's office. I'm coming.
Are you okay?
Did you fall down?
They're seizing our things.
What's going on?
We're seizing things.
Hello.
Good. I ordered three cold ones.
Cold ones? Oh, beers.
Nothing to eat?
We're not drinking with you. Give me a break.
Nico, don't start with me.
If you're hungry, you can eat.
Do you have anything better to do?
Honestly, no.
We're taking a leave before doing a master's.
We're free.
Okay, nobody's judging you. Everything's fine.
I only wanted to talk to you two.
The beer is to loosen your tongues.
I have zero,
I mean zero interest in doing business with you again. This is insane.
Sit down, please.
Listen to her. This little girl.
If you know how I am, why are you irritating me?
Stop trying to make trouble.
Okay,
I'm only staying for the drink.
So what do you want to talk about?
I want to know...
how to run things.
To improve my services.
Think of it as an inquiry regarding customer service.
I don't want you buying from me out of fear.
Look, we're not scared of you. Don't be confused.
For the moment, you're our only option.
How? What do you mean?
Pablo told us he's retiring.
For the next 24 hours, you're our only option,
until we can find someone more...
well, more normal.
It's going to be a real shame to lose room service.
Julia delivered it directly to my room.
I didn't even have to get up.
Who's Julia?
Pablo had a deal with the help.
So, they would take it to people's houses like room service.
Guys, cheers!
This friendship has been very productive.
Cheers, then.
Tell me more.
Guys.
Hey, man!
- How's it going? - Good.
That's great.
Did you hear about Pablo?
What happened?
In front of his house, we saw tow trucks taking his cars away.
No way.
They're repossessing everything.
That's unbelievable.
- Unreal, no? - I'll see you later,
my wife will kill me if she has to eat alone.
Apologies. As you can see, we're very popular.
Hey, Renata, my love, have a seat.
Polly invited us to lunch.
Please.
You won't believe what happened to Pamela.
The principal almost expelled her for buying from Lorena.
Buying what?
It's been a fun, but I'm off.
I have a Meet date. If you'll excuse me.
I'll only ask politely once.
You're doing yourselves a favor.
If you tell me,
you'll find everything you need in one dealer.
Why didn't you pay the fines?
Because I have no money, Cecilia.
Because I don't have a damn penny.
I had to choose between paying the most expensive hospital in Mexico,
pay you
or pay the fines.
I also had to choose between buying food,
paying for gasoline to go to work, because...
my savings did nothing.
I didn't know how much things cost.
I was living in a bubble...
that blew up in my face.
You can't wait another half hour?
- I'll call... - Unfortunately, no.
For the last time, it's out of my hands.
You should have paid your fines.
Ma'am, these are being repossessed. I'm sorry, but it's my job.
- Excuse me. - It's a mistake.
- Let's go to the kitchen. - There must be an explanation.
- And Pablo? - He's on his way.
- And Sofía? - It's her first day at a new job.
And Max?
He's getting Pablo's cake.
- And Jonás? - At the hospital with his mom!
And Mr. Lázaro?
- He's in jail! - Oh, that's right.
What about Mrs. Regina?
I have no idea.
Wait.
No, don't do that.
Don't do that in front of me. It'll make me worse.
Look, we're going to wait
until Pablo comes and pays with his grandpa's money.
And what we can do is...
We can't do anything.
Unless you have 15 million pesos.
No, Mary!
May I speak with you for a moment?
I'll explain everything.
I'm very sorry.
We can't do anything right now.
Let's see.
- Let's go. We have a lot to do. - What happened?
We're screwed.
What's wrong?
Are you okay?
It's a panic attack.
Dear.
Pablo.
Where's Mom?
I have no idea.
Thank you.
Next.
- Hello. - Good afternoon.
I came to see how much I can get for these things.
- Are they real? - They're all real.
Let me see them.
SOS! They're seizing Pablo's things.
I bought my apartment.
Congratulations.
I don't think I could've picked a worse time.
What do I do?
Sofía and Jonás are coming.
God willing, we'll get out of this.
- You're leaving already? - Yes, sorry.
I know I'm making a bad first impression, but it's a family emergency.
I'll deliver the article shortly. Sorry.
Take these names down: Julia and Lorena.
We need to find them. Actually write them down, okay?
I need you to go to the supermarket.
This is why you came?
To say nothing?
No.
I came to tell you I can't even afford to gas up my car.
I don't know how I'm going to pay the lawyers.
And that's the least of it. I can't even buy food.
Nobody's answering the phone, not even Mom's family.
On top of that,
everything's being seized.
Since you find this funny, I may as well tell you Santi almost died.
Even though you're down and out,
you're becoming a man, Pablo.
If being a man means being like you,
I'm not interested.
We both know...
we're very much alike,
even if you don't like it.
How strange.
What?
The knowledge this will be the last time I ever see you.
You'll be left in the past with all the problems you created.
Luciana?
No.
You're my son's friend, right?
I'm Pablo's mom.
Mrs. Caballero. How embarrassing.
How are you?
I mistook you for my blind date.
Call me Regina.
Don't be embarrassed. It's nice to be mistaken for a young woman.
I think she stood me up.
No, she'll be here soon.
A young man as handsome as you wouldn't be abandoned.
Do you mind if I sit down?
Tell me about yourself.
Okay.
Waiter, I would like a dirty martini with three olives,
- and... - Make that two.
My treat.
Unfortunately, I can't say no.
Put whatever mademoiselle orders on my tab.
"Mademoiselle."
Hello.
Do you know if they have breadcrumbs?
How should I know?
I'm new.
I'm Imelda.
Julia.
Happy birthday.
I have nothing, Sofía.
They took everything.
What do you want?
Solutions or solace?
Both.
I'm really sorry about what happened.
You're not your father. One.
- Two. - Three.
- Four. - You see?
You can always count on me.
I have no money.
I spent it all on the hospital and lawyers.
Santi has everything in his room.
I didn't know it was this bad.
It's stupid having studied economics and being penniless.
I don't know how to make money any other...
You'll find another way.
I can't think of one.
They won't extend my credit. I don't have an inheritance.
All I have is that damn white powder.
What are you doing here?
What?
I know exams are starting soon,
and I doubt your parents know you're here in Mexico.
After Christmas, we weren't supposed to see each other.
You stopped answering.
Don't take care of me out of guilt.
I'm not here out of guilt.
I'm not here to convince you to come back with me either.
So?
My love for you doesn't need anything from you.
I'm here out of love.
To help you.
And now,
if you allow it,
I want to give you a big kiss.
Didn't you say it doesn't need anything?
It's a kiss, Santiago.
I'm not asking you to marry me.
Come in.
Thank you.
Thanks for coming.
They're in the dining room.
Well, what used to be the dining room.
Excuse me. Where's the bathroom?
It's just there, at the back.
Thank you.
Let's go.
I'm going to keep The Club going.
What?
If I keep borrowing money, I'll just drown deeper in debt.
I need a long-term solution.
I'm not asking you to reset...
I'm in.
Really?
And not just for you, for me.
I know all of you had...
plans after this,
but not me.
I thought about it long and hard,
and whatever it takes to help you.
I'm not abandoning you either.
With our network, we can keep it going.
I'm not going to stay forever, but I'll help you reestablish it.
I love you.
And I you.
I need time to...
Don't worry about it.
Take your time. I don't want to pressure anyone.
I'm in too.
- Because... - Hey, Sof.
How did it go?
Are we going to play spin the bottle?
I swear it.
Aside from being corrupt, he was a jerk, no?
What time is it?
It's 10:05.
I missed Pablo's birthday.
My, how time flies.
I didn't get a cake.
- I'll take you. - No, I don't want to burden you.
Regina, please.
You're not a burden at all.
It'll give me an opportunity...
to wish Pablo a happy birthday.
Are you sure?
Check, please.
Wow.
- Hello. - Hi. Is Matías here?
No.
I don't know when he'll be back. He's always out and about.
- Want to come in? - I'll wait for him.
Hello.
I didn't think you were coming. Everyone left.
Good.
That way we can be alone.
Let me help you.
I got a little dizzy in the car.
Sure.
Thank you.
Can I see you again?
No, I don't think so.
Well, in that case, can I come in?
Wow.
How was it today?
So-so, I didn't finish my article.
No worries, you can hand it in tomorrow.
I suppose so.
Did you like Fer?
How do you know her?
She's my cousin.
Why didn't you tell me?
I didn't want you to think it was why you got the job.
Did you not like her?
I didn't even think...
that's why I got the job.
But thanks for mentioning it.
Where are you going?
Home.
Baby, it's to help him.
- He owes a lot of money. - How much?
- I don't know. A Lot. - How much is a lot?
A million? I don't know. I don't know the exact amount.
This was a mistake.
No. I won't let that jerk manipulate you.
He's not a jerk, and he's not manipulating me.
I'll talk to him.
Give me his number.
Your arrogant little macho act is pathetic.
I can do it on my own, Matías.
I've been doing it on my own for a month.
Are you angry because I stole your customers?
We're both going to hell.
And your dad?
I can't lie.
He's in jail.
If you want to leave, I'll understand.
He didn't kill anyone or anything like that,
but he's a mess.
My father's a mess, too.
I understand better than you know.
The only person in the world who understands me.
Well, my dad's such a mess...
that he caused the death of my brother.
After that, he obsessed over puzzles
as if history was erased.
My mom got so angry,
she took me to live with her in Tijuana.
He couldn't even send me presents.
That was until I went to his home and found a room full of things for me.
I forgave him. You know?
Because I knew he'd never forgive himself.
I don't know.
Forgive your father when you can.
I can't right now.
That's why I said, "When you can."
Right now,
focus solely on unwrapping your birthday present.
What present?
The best present.
But it's not the surprise.
I'm dying to know what it is.
My name isn't Polly.
It's Penélope García.
I'm the daughter of Juan Carlos García,
or as you know him:
The Monkey.
If you so much as think about selling drugs again, I'll kill you.
Because now all of this is mine.
