LADY ALTAGRACIA
Why are you saying that?
I really don't want to talk about Adolfo...
or discuss my personal life with you.
It's not relevant.
This is our place of work, Saul.
The place in which I've invested my father's fortune.
The place I've dedicated my time, effort, and passion.
Right, you've dedicated everything to this place.
That's why your place is here with me, not with Adolfo.
Let me make something clear to you.
And I hope it sticks.
The world doesn't revolve around you.
Yeah, I know that.
It revolves around you because you don't who of us to choose.
Seriously?
Did you really just say that?
No. Look...
Monica, we have so many things in common.
We're in this foundation together.
I thought you'd made up your mind
when you turned down Adolfo's marriage proposal.
Enough. You're one to talk.
If anyone should know why I'm confused, it's you.
What do you mean?
What do I mean?
We're both going through the same thing.
Well, you already went through it.
Hurts, doesn't it?
Loving two women simultaneously...
Altagracia and me.
Or do you get a pass just 'cause you're a guy?
How'd you find out we were here?
What are you doing here?
Leave us alone already!
I wasn't expecting to see you...
especially not together.
Lydia's my partner! I'll never leave her again!
What'd you do to him?
What lies did you tell him to get him back?
Don't insult her!
Haven't you done enough harm?
What more do you want, Braulio?
If you're here to kill her, you'll have to kill me first.
You sure have a thing for damaged goods, son.
Such a shame.
You're the one who should be ashamed.
You had to invent a convoluted scheme
to make it seem like a woman was interested in you!
Everything you did to get your son to listen to you.
You and your little girlfriend are scum.
I've had it with your insults!
Diego!
Braulio, you bastard!
I didn't want it to come to this,
but you leave me no choice.
Daniel, please! You have nothing to lose.
Is what Rafael said true?
Did you know Altagracia was behind Felipe's death?
Why are you dragging me into this?
Rafael told me to ask you!
He said you knew everything.
Is it true?
To be honest, I...
I swear I won't tell Altagracia.
Please just tell me the truth!
I won't mention your name.
Why do you need confirmation?
Do you distrust your sister that much?
I shouldn't,
but I was with Altagracia when Felipe was shot.
We saw it on TV.
I was desperate at the time.
Of course I assumed she'd had him killed.
My sister's the only person I trust in.
I trust her blindly.
If she's lying to me about something as serious
as Felipe's death... I need to know.
I'm sorry, Regina. I can't help you,
at least not how you want.
Why not?
I don't know anything for sure.
Rafael did tell me the same thing he told you.
He claims Altagracia came up with the hit,
but I wasn't there.
I didn't witness that conversation.
Why should I believe Rafael?
He could've lied to us both for all we know.
How'd Elena die? Where was she found?
The details are trivial. Besides, I don't really know.
Don't evade the question, Karen!
What do you mean they're trivial?
My child's mother is dead!
Calm down, Lopecito. Be strong.
Oh, I'll have to be strong
to tell my son his mother's dead thanks to Braulio.
We'll find out on the news tomorrow either way.
Please tell us what happened.
Some plastic bags were found in the park.
Plastic bags?
You mean her body was...?
No.
I can't believe Braulio did something like that.
I noticed, too.
Elena sounded strange that day we spoke over the phone.
She wasn't making any sense.
She said she was going to see her mother,
but she's been dead for years.
I couldn't save her from Braulio.
Elena died because of me.
Don't say that.
Don't you get tired of being a tyrant?
You always wanted things done your way,
but your reign ends today!
How could I have fathered a sap like you?
Hate me, but I'm still your son.
I always have been.
I'm not afraid of you anymore, though.
You were never a father to me.
-If you hurt her... -What?
What are you going to do? Kill me?
You aren't half the man I am.
Want to try me?
Oh, shut up.
I didn't even know you were here!
Then why'd you come?
I came looking for something...
but I look at you, Diego, and I can't forget what you did.
You testified against your own father.
You didn't even flinch at the 60-year sentence.
Let Lydia go.
If you want to kill me, fine... but let her go!
Is that why you're with Adolfo?
To get even with me?
Let me make something clear.
I was never with Altagracia while you and I were dating
much less when I found out you were her daughter.
I'm not "getting even" with you. I wouldn't stoop to that level.
The reality is, life's a bitch.
This is the situation we're in.
End of story.
It's only human to feel confused.
And in that confusion, Adolfo comes along
and takes advantage.
Don't treat me like an idiot who people manipulate!
I know exactly what I'm doing and what my feelings are.
When we broke up, I didn't go looking for some rebound.
Adolfo's a good man.
He's been there for me all this time
despite everything that's happened.
Despite what?
Despite the fact that you love me?
What do you want to hear?
That you love me.
I don't love Adolfo enough to want to marry him...
but I like his company.
I could really see myself with him.
I want to see where things go with him.
Hey, Monica. It's late, I...
I'm sorry. I didn't know you were here.
It's cool, Mago.
Saul and I were just about done talking.
Let's go. It's late.
I'm exhausted and I'm sure you guys are too.
Yeah. I'll give you girls a ride.
There's no need.
Yes, there is.
There is.
Our personal problems
shouldn't get in the way of your safety.
Braulio and Rafael are still on the loose.
Yeah...
Saul's right, Monica.
Not always.
I'll be waiting outside.
I knew you guys were arguing. What happened?
We'll have more privacy here.
I don't want anyone hearing us.
How'd it go with Monica?
Good.
We talked about the proposal and why she turned me down.
I told her why I got upset.
By the end of the conversation, we'd made up.
Yes, I know.
I saw you kissing at the foundation.
I did right to call you and encourage you.
I must say, your timing was impeccable.
Monica and Saul were together
when I arrived at the foundation.
She got upset the moment she saw me.
She was mad I interrupted them.
That's why I asked you to come.
Did you tell her your birthday's tomorrow?
Nope, no need. She remembered the date.
See?
She really does care about you.
You know why?
You're her savior, Adolfo.
I wish I could believe that.
Did you ask her to spend the day with you?
Yeah, and I didn't even have to insist.
She immediately said yes.
Perfect.
See?
You should feel confident.
Yeah, but it isn't easy after all that's happened.
Yes, I know...
but she agreed to spend the day with you tomorrow,
so she won't be able to tour the grounds I've set aside
for the new building.
That way, I'll have Saul all to myself
and you'll get to have a full day with Monica.
That's all I want.
I want to be able to be with Monica
without Saul looming about.
This is your chance!
Make the most of it.
It's been days since Yesenia died.
This is your chance to do something special for her.
Something she'll never forget.
You can do it!
It all depends on you,
and the assistance I'm lending you.
Rafael's lied to me a number of times.
Remember, he specializes
in ruining or boosting people's image.
You've no reason to believe in him.
I know, but he made so much sense!
How so?
He said that whoever recorded that video
must've known about the plan.
Not necessarily.
Bystanders record crimes all the time.
The videos always end up on the news!
They just happen to be there at the right time.
Most of the time, it's purely coincidental.
He also said Altagracia met with him
the same day Felipe met with her.
I checked the surveillance videos.
They erased everything that was recorded after Felipe left!
You think your sister had that information deleted?
If not her, then who?
She probably sent Matamoros.
Rafael could've had that information deleted
just to fill your head with doubts.
Look, your sister loves you.
She's not as bad as they say she is.
I'm living proof.
She saved me when I tried to kill myself,
despite all the harm I caused her.
Daniel?
It's me. Matamoros.
Open the door. I know you're in there.
I can see the light on.
You know you're not supposed to lock the door.
This is all your fault!
You weren't supposed to be here!
You ruined my entire plan!
Why'd you come here?
Why won't you leave us alone?
Oh, be quiet!
Hurry up and tie her already!
Faster!
Are you trying to waste my time?
-I'm doing the best I can! -Shut up!
Make it tight.
If she tries to escape, I swear I'll shoot.
-Alright... -Tie her up!
I swear I'll shoot!
Relax!
He isn't going to hurt you, babe.
I promise.
Don't worry.
I'm a man of my word, Lydia.
I don't care if you tie me up.
You can't shut me up.
I'm tired of running from you.
I'm tired of holding my tongue around you.
I'm not afraid of you.
You really won't shut up, will you?
Where's your phone, Diego?
I don't have one.
Don't insult my intelligence. Give me your phone.
Alright! Fine!
Now will you shut up?
Give it here.
Give me her phone, too. Go on!
Now follow me.
Move!
What happened?
Why'd you lock the door?
I was showering.
Don't do it again.
You know you can't lock the door.
Surely you don't expect me to get dressed with the door open.
Wait.
If you want breakfast tomorrow,
you'll have to be there before the ladies.
Otherwise, you don't eat.
Alright.
You aren't going to receive any privileges...
or special treatment.
I'll be watching you.
What could I possibly be doing in here?
You're welcome to come in and check the place.
That won't be necessary.
You've wasted enough of my time as it is.
Be there early tomorrow.
Thanks for staying with me, Mago.
No problem, Mona.
I'll be here as long as you need.
You're more than just my friend. You're my sister.
Yeah, you're right. We're sisters.
And since we're sisters,
can I give you my opinion on your situation with Saul?
I told you what he said.
He's wrong either way.
Just because we work together
and are passionate about justice
doesn't mean there should be anything going on between us.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
I'm so sure, that I'm spending the whole day
with Adolfo tomorrow for his birthday.
We're going to have a great time.
You don't say?
We're also going to rekindle our relationship
and try to make things work.
It's funny you say that.
You mention wanting to make Adolfo happy,
but you don't seem happy yourself.
What's that all about?
You want a song and dance and for me to jump for joy?
No, but you don't sound convinced.
You can't be. Know why?
Why?
When you give all of yourself,
you never come back whole.
A piece of your heart still belongs to Saul
and you know it.
Fine. Why deny it?
What should I do, though? Ask for it back?
"Hey, mind returning that piece of me?"
I can't do that.
You're right.
I don't feel the same way about Adolfo.
I don't get butterflies. I don't get flushed.
I'm not head over heels in love with him.
I know, Mona...
But one can't live off of love alone.
Nope.
Not everyone gets to be madly in love.
I know, but it doesn't matter what Adolfo does for you.
Not even if he gave you the moon and stars.
But if Saul were to do it, you'd do backflips.
All you have to worry about is arriving with Monica.
I'll handle everything else. It'll be perfect!
It'll be a wonderful moment she'll never forget.
Alright, Altagracia.
We'll do things your way this time around.
I have full faith in you.
It's for the best.
You won't regret this.
Well, goodnight.
Get some rest. Tomorrow will be a lovely day.
Regina!
I stopped by to check on you.
I feel much better, thank you.
There's no need for you to stay.
I can come on another day for a follow-up.
Lupita, please see the doctor out.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
What's the matter, Regina?
You seem... agitated.
Why are you looking at me that way?
You got here a while ago. I saw your car out front.
Why were you outside the house? Who were you with?
