We were waiting because we have a surprise for you!
-Right, Charlie? -Yes!
Come over here.
Okay.
There.
There!
One, two, three, four, five,
six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
Great job!
You're going to be this century's Einstein!
-High five. -Amalia...
You can take him for his bath.
Shower time.
Shower time!
Come here.
Dinosaurs!
Here we go.
There's no need to pretend for Charlie's sake
that everything between us is okay.
-Our son will be okay. -Our son deserves a family.
We're his parents. That's enough.
-If you made an effort... -We don't need to pretend...
Max! If you tried, it could be like before.
Don't you tire of discussing the same things
-time and again? -Couples have crises.
I already made an appointment
with the therapist for tomorrow.
-The therapist? -That's right.
You're crazy. I'm not going.
Yes, you are, in fact.
We're both going.
We'll get couples therapy and we'll both do our best
to make this work.
How's this going to work?
Tolerating each other doesn't make for a happy family.
Please understand. Look at me.
It's over between us.
You don't get to decide that.
These are the divorce papers.
I've already filed them.
Max.
Don't think I'll make this easy for you.
My bodyguard's downstairs.
You won't get out alive if you try anything.
Please calm down.
This is Juan Estevez's driver. Calm down?
He tried to kill me at the ranch.
-You followed me. -I was protecting you, ma'am.
Don't buy that. I'm calling my...
Please listen! Joel tried to protect you!
You're in cahoots with him? I'm out of here.
I'm an Interpol agent.
I was there because I'm an infiltrator.
I'm heading an investigation.
We're gathering information on a human trafficking ring
that has the support of the Governor.
Your husband.
-An agent? -Yes, an agent.
What you did jeopardized months of work
carried out by a team of professionals.
They worked months for nothing.
She didn't know.
She was corroborating the information I gave her.
That's why I didn't want her to know anything.
I knew this would happen.
What you did cost someone their life.
The security guard that discovered us...
I couldn't let him live.
Come in.
Here's the information on the woman you had me investigate.
Her name is Irene Benitez.
Thank you.
I don't understand.
If you know where the girls are, why don't you free them?
Joel only discovered today their location.
Then do something! You're wasting time here.
Go get those girls out!
Forgive me if I don't run out and follow your orders,
but it's much more complex than you imagine.
The network your husband belongs to
has many other members.
Joel's mission is to find those who really run
the human trafficking ring.
Your husband and Juan Estevez are very influential
and powerful in this country,
but they're only minority partners in the organization.
What a coincidence that now that my husband's governor
your investigation is yielding results.
-What are you implying? -I know Ernesto's shameless.
But I could see how you'd gain politically by ruining him.
Joel's suspected your husband since he was attorney general.
In all these years you couldn't act?
In all these years
you didn't see what your husband was doing?
Or maybe you did and turned a blind eye.
You will not speak to me that way
or blame me for your ineptitude!
You can't accuse me of being involved in this!
Did you all see the time? Where have you been?
I was so worried!
You're not going to tell me?
The school didn't know your whereabouts.
I almost called the police!
Sorry, Mom. We didn't want to worry you.
Mom, they're kids. But you?
-I can't believe you'd do this! -Alright, calm down.
We're here. What happened?
Why didn't you take them to school?
I wanted them spending their last day in Mexico with me!
What a crime, right?
Off with her head! Exile her!
Let's go.
Dear Lord!
That's what grandmothers are for!
We like to ruin children. But these two are leaving,
so they won't have a grandmother!
Geez!
What's this?
Remember the woman who slipped into your party?
-I had her investigated. -You're still paranoid.
Not paranoid.
She's a heavy duty journalist. Read that.
This is in Central America.
Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala...
-What's it got to do with us? -A lot.
That woman specializes in revealing and dismantling
businesses like the ones that got you in that chair.
Listen, Paulita.
Let's clear something up.
We're not criminals and we don't stand for crime
under any circumstances.
Sometimes we turn a blind eye, look the other way...
if they want to support us, what can we do?
That woman's dangerous.
Paula...
you've manipulated the press for many years.
What worries you about this time?
I don't know. It feels different.
I think we need to do something about that woman.
I don't want to deal with this guy.
I'll only deal with you.
If you want my help, release the girls now.
That's impossible, ma'am. We can't do that in Mexico.
What'll happen to them?
Some will go to the US, others to Europe and Asia.
We might be able to free some once they reach
their final destination, but others...
Others what?
You'll let them be prostituted?
Forgive me for shaking up that lovely bubble you live in,
drinking tea in your yard every afternoon.
That's not real.
This is reality, ma'am.
This is the reality we live every day
while doing our jobs!
It's tough, it's sad, but that's how it is!
My job is to get to the organization's heads.
I won't stop till I do.
The girls that are part of your mission have names and faces.
One of them has a mother who begged me for help.
You know what that's like?
Not knowing if you're daughter's dead or alive
or suffering, or whether you'll ever see her again?
Or maybe you'll die never knowing!
Ma'am...
I understand the victim's suffering.
-You don't need to remind me. -Then you're worse
than the animals you seek.
You could end this suffering now
but you'll just stand by and watch!
How many others will have to look at their kids' clothes,
shoes, and books in order to believe they're not dead?
And hang on to hope?
How much more horror will you allow
because you only follow orders?
Sofia...
if Joel could act on his own he would.
When he says he's following orders
it's because it's not in his hands or mine...
Talking to you two is pointless.
I'll make sure to get those girls out.
If I have to speak to the president to help...
If you talk to anyone you'll ruin everything!
You'd be alerting them.
They'll just regroup.
They'll eliminate all the evidence we've gathered.
Witnesses, documents, and you yourself would be in danger.
And remember, that ranch is in your name.
I told you I had no idea about this!
I'm certain Juan Estevez and your husband
won't hesitate to incriminate you if they feel cornered.
If you choose to help us...
if you change your mind and you want to get us
evidence or documents that can help us try your husband
in an international court,
please call me at this number.
If you don't want to help us...
then please don't get involved.
Her name is Irene Benitez. She's Mexican.
She writes for international publications
but she's Mexican and has millions of followers.
Good for her.
But how many of these courageous journalists
have we dealt with before?
Plenty, but none had sought out Sofia for her help.
-Leave Sofia out of this. -I didn't involve her.
Your reporter girl did.
Remember, you said Sofia's now asking about Juan.
What sparked that curiosity?
Either way, I doubt Sofia would betray me.
-Really? -Really.
- NO.
I wouldn't be so sure.
What will Sofia think when she learns
you let those kidnapped girls be held on her father's ranch?
We had a great time at the fair.
Everything was awesome.
The<i> esquites</i> , the cream biscuits with caramel...
Chili-covered tamarind candy!
No wonder you're not hungry.
Grandma says where we're going
people only eat fake meat hot dogs.
-Is that true? -No, it's not.
Go take a shower with warm water.
-Don't want you getting sick. -They won't get sick.
These kids are strong and healthy.
You think I don't know what you're doing, Mom?
Trying to influence them so they won't want to go.
No.
I just wanted them to have a nice memory of their grandma.
What if they never return?
Or take so long to return that I'm no longer here?
Don't be melodramatic, Mom.
Oh, honey.
So many people leave and never return to their birthplace.
Mom...
I'm sorry I got upset.
But leaving all this is hard for me too.
Leaving without you.
But you're going after your man.
-Mom. -Oh well.
Don't mind me.
You know how I am.
I understand you.
You're fighting for your family and your happiness.
You have every right to.
Mom...
I'm going to miss you so much.
You will at first.
But you'll get used to it.
I found it, Mom.
That's going in the garbage.
But the governor's son gave it to me.
It's damaged, honey. You can't take that to LA.
We'll buy one there.
When we're in the US, can we meet the governor's kids?
I doubt it, sweetie.
You know them here because Mrs. Sofia's been my customer
for many years.
Julian says his dad will be president one day.
If we stayed, I'd be friends with the president's son!
What if we stay, Mom?
We can tell Dad to come live in Mexico with us.
No, Mom.
I want to be an astronaut one day.
I can't here.
I want to go.
But all my friends are here, plus Grandma.
You'll make new friends, honey.
What about Grandma? I won't find another there.
Nope. There's no one else like her.
"IRENE BENITEZ, JOURNALIST WHO DISMANTLED CHILD TRAFFICKING RING IN GUATEMALA"
Come to my office, Pastrana.
Come in.
Yes, miss?
I need you to find out where Irene Benitez is staying.
Alright.
Only talk to me about it.
The Governor doesn't need to know.
This hospital reflects the efforts of many.
But it's thanks to our illustrious governor,
Ernesto Martinez.
Without his support...
Ma'am.
Ma'am?
Please do us the honor of cutting the ribbon.
Sure. Let's go!
I'll stand here with you.
-You'll do it with me? -Yeah!
Watch your fingers.
One, two, three!
<i> It's a pleasure</i> <i> to be here today.</i>
<i> Knowing we have</i> <i> a new children's hospital</i>
<i> here in our state gives me</i> <i> peace of mind as a person,</i>
a woman, and as a mother.
As a mother.
These are dark times.
And my daughter...
she doesn't like darkness because it scares her.
When that happens I turn on a nightlight so she can sleep.
I wish I had a nightlight to protect not just my children
but everyone's too.
But I don't.
I'm sorry.
I'm so very sorry.
What are you doing, honey?
You're here, there, here again, there again.
-What is it? -I can't find Tomas' passport.
I had all three together
but now I only see mine and Karina's.
You didn't take it, did you?
Geez, honey!
Is that what you think of your mother?
If I'd wanted to keep your kids here
I'd hide them, not their papers!
Tomas!
Tomas!
Honey, did you grab your passport?
I'm talking to you. This isn't a game.
Um...
I wanted to show it to Julian
so I took it to the Governor's party.
You left it there?
Come in.
Eliza, what a surprise.
Was there a problem with the check?
No, ma'am.
I'm sorry.
Tomas brought his passport yesterday
and seems he left it here.
Maybe in Julian's room.
Margarita, can you help us look for it please?
-Yes, ma'am. -Have a seat.
Are you okay, ma'am?
Yes, Juanito.
This merchandise will be processed in three shipments.
The first one is set.
Why three, Don Chente?
The first one is for our Texas client.
The other two are some new offers I received.
One from Germany and the other Slovenia.
What do you think?
I've no problem with it.
But I suggest
not letting too much time pass between shipments.
I can keep the merchandise on the ranch
but it's too much money to keep in one place.
I'd say let's send them to China.
They'll pay us more for those girls.
I suggest we refer to them as the merchandise.
-It's safer. -I say whatever I want.
Business. We're here to do business.
Mr. Juan...
I don't know how quickly the shipments will go out.
What I do know is that the first is ready to go
and there'll be enough to cover keeping the goods at the ranch
for another year.
Worst case scenario, I mean.
We're talking about half, more or less?
More or less.
The Texan ordered this himself.
When the Texan places an order, it only rains profit.
Who's that Texan, Dad?
He's our biggest client
on the other side of the border, Vicente.
Does he have a name?
Don't ask.
That poor woman's following me everywhere.
She thinks I can help with her daughter.
Just imagining someone taking my daughter...
sends a chill down my spine.
No wonder you're so sad.
Did you tell the Governor?
If helping that girl were actually possible,
what would you do?
Anything, ma'am. Wouldn't think twice about it.
Even if you endanger your own life?
What kind of person would I be if I didn't?
How could I look my kids in the eye
if I'm unwilling to help a mother get her daughter back?
It's the only way I could hope
that someone one day would do it for me.
Excuse me.
Here it is. It was in Juliancito's room.
That's great.
I'm so glad it turned up! I was dying.
-Thanks very much. -Thanks.
You're welcome. Excuse me.
Ma'am, I'm sorry but I have much to do with the move.
Thank you. It helped to talk about it.
Absolutely.
And if there's anything else I can do, just let me know.
Thank you.
I need to speak to the news director.
It's urgent.
