All language subtitles for Betty.En.NY.S01E086_English

How come you're calling me?

I wanted to ask if you were serious
about the job offer.

Very much so, Betty.

Are you coming with me?

It'd be an honor to work with you.

I know you're hiding something.

I assure you that
you'll be very satisfied by this report.

ON THE PREVIOUS EPISODE

What is this?

How could V&M have taken
on so much debt and liability

since the last board meeting?

What you're looking at are
the actual figures for V&M.

That balance sheet isn't real.
This meeting is over.

You're not taking anything from me!

Time to answer
for what you've done, Armando.

You, as well as these two
for being your accomplices.

Go ahead, Armando.
Explain how V&M was seized,

and how this company is no longer ours.

Seized? What are you talking about?

Hold on, what's going on?
I'm not following.

V&M was seized.

The company surpassed
its maximum leverage ratio

and no longer belongs to us.

We lost it, ladies and gentlemen.

Armando, is that true?

No, no... What do you mean V&M isn't ours?

Then whose is it?

-Can somebody explain? Hugo?
-Don't look at me.

I can explain what's in style
for the season,

but I know nothing about numbers.

Let's all calm down.
I can explain everything.

-I can explain everything.
-Great.

Then explain why a company
nobody's ever heard of now owns V&M.

Go on, tell everyone
how BAR has the sole rights to V&M.

Armando, is that true?

Yes, Roberto.

V&M has been under the ownership
of another company for months.

You shut up!

You and Beatriz have been covering up
for Armando.

Say something, Armando. Is it true or not?

Daniel, you don't know what's going on.

Let me explain. You don't know anything.

-I don't know anything? Really?
-You don't!

Everyone please calm down.

Let's all relax. Now explain.

Roberto, you know more
about business here than anyone.

Take a good look at that information.

BAR legally owns V&M.

But that's not all, everyone.

Beatriz, do you mind telling
all of us who owns BAR,

and as such, owns V&M?

-Me.
-Thank you.

What?

You own our company?

-What?
-No way.

When did we sell it to her?

Who sold it? How did that happen?

I need to use the bathroom.

Daniel, please.
It's not how he's saying it.

-It isn't?
-No!

Beatriz, you said
you'd explain everything.

Do you own V&M or not?

-Yes, I own it.
-Oh, well...

I'm the president of BAR,
which means I own V&M too.

But don't worry.
I'm going to give it all back.

In there you'll find
my letter of resignation

and a power of attorney to recover assets.

Assets? What assets? We have nothing!

Armando handed you a flourishing business

and you're returning it to us bankrupt!

Catering's here!

-Get out of here, Patricia!
-Get out!

We'll talk later. Go away!

Get lost!

What's going on in there?

Hey, you look like you've seen a ghost.

-What happened?
-This company's going under.

What?

Nothing, OK? I didn't say anything,
you gossiping nags.

What's going on in there is
a meeting for high-level

-executives.
-Right.

It's not more fuel to pour
onto your gossip fire.

I demand Armando's removal from office.

My resignation wouldn't change anything.

See?

A casual meeting.

-Super casual.
-Nothing's going on in there.

The problem is all
of you love making up fake news

because of your ignorance
of situational analysis.

Get back to work!

What did you do with all our money?

Don't tell me you lost it overnight
because I won't believe you.

You're going to pay
with your personal assets.

I didn't take anything.
I was doing all I could to save V&M.

How? By giving it to that woman?

Beatriz was getting everything

and she wasn't going to say anything.

What kind of people are you?

Calm down, Marcela.
It's not Betty's fault.

-Really?
-It's not her fault?

She's the mastermind behind this con.

You were wrong if you thought
you'd end up with all of our assets

because I'll send you to jail myself!

-Leave Betty alone!
-I'll send you to jail as well!

Enough!

Stop this freak show!

We're family!

We're the owners of a company
that's been around for over 30 years!

Daniel, you said everything
you had to say.

It's time for Armando to speak now.

Son,

what did you do?

And be honest. No more lies.

First of all, I'd like to make clear

that all of this is my fault.

Betty has nothing to do with it.

She was merely following my orders.

I've already quit, and I'm going
to return everything.

-I'm leaving.
-Wait!

Beatriz, you're not going anywhere.
I have to speak with you alone.

You're going to clear everything up.

Armando,

wait here and prepare
to explain everything that happened.

Nobody's leaving V&M.

Betty, meet me in the president's office.

Let go of me!
You love to live like the poor.

You ruined a great opportunity.

We could be in Manhattan,
living the good life.

But you just had to get jealous
and ruin everything.

What would you have had
to do to live in Manhattan?

Be that guy's lover?
Model underwear for him in private?

Maybe. I might've enjoyed myself too.

You've got some nerve. Let's go.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm tired of you taking me
everywhere in that truck

to kill cockroaches. Plus, you stink.

And I'm tired of you forbidding me
from doing what I like,

like modeling and runway shows.

Enough. Don't call me, don't write me,

-understood?
-Jennifer!

-I'm single!
-Come here!

Single is what I am.

How could you give our company
to that woman, Armando?

I had to do it

to protect V&M.

You believed more in her than in me?

Would you have done what Betty did?

Would you have been president

of a company that was going to seize V&M?

Of course not! And do you know why?

I would never have betrayed my family.

Only a greedy, calculating woman
like Beatriz would do something like that.

That's why she refused my job offer.

You offered her a job?

Yes.

If she'd accepted it,
she would have ruined you,

just like she did V&M.

What did you offer her?

What did she ask for
to do something like that?

Nothing.

Betty didn't ask for anything in return.

All the same,
she has to return everything to us.

But if like Daniel says
the company is bankrupt...

Does that mean
we'll no longer receive monthly deposits?

Betty, I was all wrong about you.

I thought you were an ethical woman,

but after what you did... May I ask why?

Because I fully believed
in Mr. Armando's business plan.

It was risky, but not impossible.
And if we could accomplish it,

the projections for V&M were
through the roof.

My son has always been a dreamer
and he's made plenty of mistakes,

but your job was to keep him grounded

and make him see
the financial risk he was in.

We had bad luck at the beginning
and were faced with many obstacles,

but I got carried away by his dreams.

I thought we could overcome
those obstacles.

You were in those meetings
with us, lying the whole time.

Messaging reports, taking on losses
from which we can never recover,

and you even created a shell company.

I know it was wrong, and I admit it,

but BAR was created to protect V&M.

I became president because
it was the only way for that to work.

BAR is protecting V&M
while it gets out of its financial hole.

This is the worst report
on V&M in its history.

Yes, I know that
it's currently in the red,

but if you focus
on the future projections,

in one year,
V&M will be well in the black.

Who cares about that, Betty?

The company no longer belongs
to the Valencias and Mendozas.

It's yours.

No, BAR was created using V&M's money.

I'm just an employee
that manages the money,

but the company is yours.
I don't want any of it.

Here they come.

Sit down.

I'll be in my workshop thinking
and analyzing.

I don't want to be bothered.

Marcela, the waiters are ready
to serve the food.

What happened, Marcela?

Patricia, don't give us any calls.

-Don't let anyone interrupt us.
-Talk to me.

I'm like family, Margarita.

How does it feel, chicken legs?

Nobody's listening to you.

-I hate you.
-Oh!

But you have no reason to.

Are you telling me BAR was created
with V&M's money?

Yes.

So V&M was still up
and running thanks to those loans?

Yes.

The banks wouldn't loan V&M
any more money, but BAR they did.

BAR, in turn, loaned that money to V&M.

Let's see if I got this straight.

BAR was formed using V&M's money.

So then how has BAR been solvent
all this time?

BAR's debt must be astronomical.

One of BAR's specialties is investment
in the stock market.

My best friend Nicolas works there,

and he's had great results
and turned a substantial profit.

May I ask where that company is located?

BAR only has three employees.

Nicolas Ramos, my father, and me.

We've always worked from home,
and the only asset that BAR acquired

was a sports car
that we're returning today.

Roberto, whatever you're discussing
with this woman

is something that's of interest
to not just you.

Please don't be like your son
and keep the information to yourself.

You know very well I'm not like that.

I just wanted to know more
about the situation.

Isn't it obvious? This woman is
a professional scammer

who's capitalizing on this opportunity
to her benefit.

Beatriz, you're one step away from jail.

Let's do this another way.

Tell me how much you want...

Daniel, please return
to the conference room.

And please don't disrespect me.

Don't forget who I am.

I don't want your money.
I just want to return everything.

You've got the real reports on V&M.

I'll also give you a report
on BAR to clear up any doubts.

I'm having
a hard time believing you, Betty.

You've proven yourself untrustworthy.

I'm going to take some time
and make my decision.

If you'll excuse me,
I'm going back to the conference room.

Did you see what you started
with that stupid video?

Now it's my fault?

You gave that woman power
and freedom and look what she did.

You have to get your father in check.

Daniel cannot become president of V&M.

Gossiping like old hags?

Spare me your air of superiority.

You're not going to win
like you think you are.

Instead of talking nonsense, Armando,

you ought to be enjoying
your last few hours of freedom

because I'm about to call my lawyers
to file a lawsuit against you.

Beatriz, Ricardo,
and you are going to jail.

You're not going to make that call.

It isn't in your interest to.

It isn't in my interest?

I knew you'd one day do
something like this.

You're done, Armando.

You falsified information,
and that's a serious crime.

Yeah, but I don't think
we're the only ones to do that, Daniel.

You did too.

If you sue us, we'll do the same to you.

I have nothing to do with any of this.

No, not with V&M, but will you deny

stealing confidential information
from companies to bankrupt them

so you could later buy them
at one third the price?

So?

Be careful making accusations like that.

Right.

You wouldn't want
to also get sued for slander.

But it's all true, Daniel.

You didn't commit corporate espionage
in order to buy a company?

Where was it? Oh, India, right?

We have proof connecting you
to that purchase.

You manipulated Thompson
into selling you his company

at a low price, right?

But you didn't work alone. Who helped him?

-Mata.
-Mata did.

Gregorio Mata,
your great friend and servant.

You can't prove that.

Call your lawyers
if you don't believe us.

Call them and we'll tell
Thompson everything we know.

That's a billionaire with a "B"
you'd be taking on,

and we probably wouldn't be
the only ones going to prison.

Call him.

Armando.

It's your turn to explain everything.

Daniel, please be patient.

You know I won't hide anything from you,

but may I please speak to these two alone?

Yes, of course.

You have no idea
how disappointed I am in you.

You deceived all of us.

How could you lie to us all like that?

How could you sleep at night?

We didn't have bad intentions
when we planned this, Dad.

You always liked the idea
of a shell company.

You knew it was a practice
that bordered on the illegal

that I never cared for.

I was just trying to save our patrimony.

Patrimony? What patrimony?
There's no money!

-You gave V&M to Beatriz Rincon.
-Yes, but she's returning it.

I went into debt with her
so that the banks wouldn't take

the company from us.

How could it come to this?
And you, Ricardo?

Did you support this foolishness?

Well, the business plan was ambitious,
but it can be achieved.

Yes, the truth is...

Look, I messed up
with the first collection.

For the second, we were victims of fraud

and were swindled by a fabric supplier.

So then the rumors about
that company in New York

that was defrauded in Miami were true.

-It was us.
-Yes.

That's when you should have called
a special board meeting!

No, Dad. Daniel would've gotten
everything at that point.

That was always his plan.
I was just trying to save the company.

Don't lie to me, Armando.

You didn't try to save V&M.

All you cared about was your own vanity.

You didn't want to lose and prove
to Daniel that he was right.

See what your pride cost you?

We're losing everything.

You're right.

I accept all the blame.

-I quit.
-No.

No, sir. You're staying here.

You and Ricardo will answer
for what you've done.

But you'll obviously be reassigned
within the company.

No, way. Who have I been
with all these years?

How could he do something like this?

Don't judge him so harshly
over this mistake.

Maybe it was her idea.

It wasn't his fault.
It's that woman's fault.

It doesn't make sense, Margarita.

Nothing does.
How is it that nobody noticed?

What else could he be hiding?

Don't think about that anymore.
Think about you right now.

You have to relax
and focus on your inner energy.

Breathe.

What is wrong with you? Don't you see?

We're broke!

The owner of V&M is now Beatriz Rincon.

Why did you do that?

Why did you deceive me like that?

Why did you make me fall for you?

Why?

Why did you hurt me?
You know how much I've suffered.

-I don't deserve this.
-No, I know you don't,

but I can assure you
there's an explanation for all this.

I don't want it.

I don't want to hear it.

I was hoping all this was a lie.

That it wasn't true.

Or that you'd at least call
an end to this game,

and you didn't.

You kept on with it until the very end.

It's not what you think.

Maybe our relationship didn't start
the right way,

but I fell in love along the way.

I swear it, Betty. And now,

I love you like I've never loved anybody.

Don't lie to me. Stop lying to me!
I heard you this morning!

You want to get rid of me
and send me far away!

No, that's not how I said it.
I wasn't getting rid of you.

I said it to protect you.
It's not what you're thinking.

You're right, it's not what I'm thinking.

It was never what I thought.

Betty, please don't go.

I have to explain.
Please let me talk to you.

I love you, honey.

Armando, what's going on here?

I'm leaving.

No, Betty, you're not going anywhere.
I have to speak to you.

What is there to discuss? She's a thief.

We're waiting for you
in the conference room.

Marcela, this is important too.

What is this woman still doing here?

Betty, please wait here.

Don't go. I have to explain everything.

I'll be right back.

Because of
today's unfortunate circumstances,

we have to choose a new president for V&M.

Which we all know should be me.

No, I can't allow that.
He'll sell the company.

What's there to sell, fool?
All you left is smoldering ruins.

Oh, please!

Can we please just choose a president?
I need this meeting to be over.

Just know that
if Daniel is named president,

I'm taking a year sabbatical.

-Hugo.
-Nothing personal, Daniel.

The most prudent course of action is...

for you to be temporary president,
Roberto.

-What?
-Me?

I agree. Roberto should be president.

Shut your mouth, idiot.

After what you did, you have no say here.

OK.

I agree.

Neither Ricardo
nor Armando should have a vote.

I agree that you're the best choice, Dad.

Nobody knows this company better than you,

and we'd be in the best hands.

What do you say, Roberto?

I agree to be the temporary president
of V&M.

This board meeting is over. Let's go.

Let's go.

Beatriz!

What's in your bag?

Nothing. Trash.

I don't believe you.

You're not going anywhere
until I've seen what's in the bag.

Are you stealing something?

-Call security, Patricia.
-Right away, Marcela.

That won't be necessary, Patricia.

I would recommend
we open that bag in private.

Don't be ridiculous.

Tell me right now what's in that bag.

Miss Marcela, believe me,
it's in both our interests

for this bag to be opened in private.

All right, show me what's in that bag

that you can't show me in public.

Miss Marcela, what's in this bag...

is something Mr. Armando omitted
from the meeting.

It was part of his strategy to save V&M.

What is this crap?

What is this?

Armando gave you these?

Supposedly.

Why did he give you all this?

Remember how you'd ask me
about the other woman

Mr. Armando was seeing?

Don't tell me you're
the other woman, Beatriz.

"We've been apart for one week,

and the grief at not having you by my side

has left a hole in my heart.

But today, the wait ends.
I'll finally get to see you, darling.

I need you, Betty. I miss you.

I'm slowly dying without you."

You?

You're... Armando's lover?

Something like that.

I was his lover,
but he was never in love with me.

He never stopped loving you.

This... is a set-up.

-These are more of your lies!
-Well, it is a set-up.

Mr. Ricardo and Mr. Armando set me up.

I can send you a video
if you don't believe me.

You'll know the truth after watching it.

Bro, I know the hardest thing
you've ever done

is seduce Beatriz Rincon.

That having to pretend
to love that hideous thing

who doesn't deserve it
has been a nightmare.

Just remember that she's our only way
of getting the company back.

I know having to kiss
that monster has been rough

and that making love to her is torture...

This can't be true.

It is.

It was their plan to make sure
I wouldn't keep what was theirs.

But I deserve it for being naive

and for messing with someone
who was engaged.

No, this can't be true.

There's got to be
a logical explanation for all this.

Or maybe you're manipulating me.

That's it.

You're a liar and you made all this up!

No, I'm not.

It's true.

I made a mistake,

but it's also true
that we all make mistakes.

Including you.

What are you insinuating?
That this is all my fault?

No, but you had an affair
with Mr. Ricardo.

What are you talking about?

I saw you kissing, but don't worry.

I won't say anything.

That's your private life
and it's none of my business.

I shouldn't have to stand for this.

I want you gone.

You're the worst thing
that's ever happened to V&M.

Get out of here!
I never want to see you again!

COPYING FILES

Take this pill before
your blood pressure goes up.

If all this didn't kill me, nothing will.

Did you know?

Did Armando say anything to you?

How could you think that?

I would've told you if I'd known.

How did it come to this?

My own son lied to my face.
He said everything was fine.

That the rumors about
our financial situation weren't true.

He did it to win your approval.

The goals he set
for himself were far too ambitious.

That caused him a lot of stress.

Please, Margarita. Don't excuse him.

What happened here is very serious.
It's a crime!

I should fire those two shameless clowns.
It's what they deserve.

But you won't. For me.

Because he's our only child,

and you'd be jeopardizing V&M's prestige.

And above all,
because Armando's the only one familiar

with the company's true economic state.

You need him.

He's the only one
who can keep you informed.

Roberto.

Don't worry.
Armando's been very affected by this.

I promise you he'll change.

This is the most important lesson
you could ever teach our son.

Isn't he too old for me
to have to teach him?

If he were to only learn
his lesson this time.

OK. I'll be back in a while.

I have to see just how deep in it we are.

Wait here.

Where are you going?

I don't know who to believe,

so I'm going to every bank
to which we owe money.

I have to see just how much debt
we're in, Margarita.

See you later.

We'll be OK.

Why did Betty wait till now to betray us?

Because she heard us talking
about sending her on a trip.

She thinks we want to get rid of her.

Stop being so naive, Armando!

That's her excuse,
but that was always her plan.

I warned you, but you wouldn't believe me

-because you got smitten with her.
-Be quiet, will you?

-Enough.
-Ricardo, leave.

Leave!

What is it, Marcela?

I want you to tell me the truth.

Is it true?

That you and Beatriz were involved?

Yes. It's true.

It's yours?

Hey, Betty! How'd it go? Tell me.

Nicolas, give me the keys.

-The keys?
-And also the car's registration.

-We have to return it.
-No way. Today?

No, I'm not ready for that.

Stop making this harder
and just give it to me!

You can't do this to me.

What did I do wrong to deserve this?

Wilson, give these keys

and this registration
to Mrs. Margarita or Mr. Roberto.

I'm counting on you.

-But--
-Don't worry.

They'll understand what it's all about.

I'd like to tell you something.

Thank you very much for everything.

Thank you for being my friend

and for greeting me every morning
and for the times you defended me.

Thank you.

You're welcome, Betty. What's wrong?

Nothing.

So never again?

Never again. It was never ours
and you knew that.

Can I have five minutes
to say goodbye to her?

Make it quick.

My beautiful baby,

I knew you were never mine,

but I always loved you and I always will.

-We had some good times together.
-Giovas, what's up?

I was tasked with bringing you this,
which you left in your office.

Thanks, Giovas.

The girls asked me
to deliver it personally.

Thank you very much,
and thanks for everything.

My pleasure.

-OK.
-All right.

Let's take the subway.
Like in the old days.

Let's go.

Hugo, where are you, dear?

I brought you some snacks from catering.

You must be hungry after
that meeting. Intense, huh?

Food for my soul,
for my heart,

for my spirit, for my creativity
and imagination.

That's the food I need.

That's? the thing, Hugo.

So I brought you cookies.

Come on.

Please tell me.

Did things really get that bad?

What did Marcela say to Armando?

Words.

Words and words.

But what are words but phonetic vibrations

emanating from our laryngeal tract as man,

as homo sapiens sapiens, has evolved.

You're scaring me.

You should be.

Any other reaction would be futile

at this moment of the revelation.

What revelation?

Fashion doesn't exist.

It doesn't, Patricia. It's an illusion.

Like us, who also don't exist.
We're an illusion, much like time.

Einstein was right.

Say something, Patricia. My God!

I don't know what to say.
You're being really deep.

One of my professors at DUI once told me

that in the mirror you can see
the reflection of who you truly are.

And that genius professor

-of yours was right.
-Yes.

That's what we are, we're reflections.

Come on, Hugo.

I don't know why you're being so deep.

I only came to find out the gossip.

Will you please tell me
what happened at the meeting?

I can't.

That innocent mind
of yours couldn't deal with it.

In fact, if advances in medicine ever lead
to successful brain transplants,

-I'd like yours.
-Oh!

It's important that I receive one
that's never been used.

If I told you, it'd be straight
to the shrink with you.

How could you?

What kind of monster are you, Armando?

-Calm down.
-Not only did you give her

our company, but you slept with her!

-What the hell is wrong with you!
-No, no...

-Let me explain.
-What's there to explain?

-I need to tell you--
-I saw the video!

What you and Ricardo did is deplorable!

-Hear me out.
-What's there to hear?

No wonder! No wonder...

you always defended her.

I have to say something. Listen to me.

-You're the worst man alive!
-Marcela.

-Marcela.
-You bastard!

-I hate you!
-Please let me explain.

I'm never designing anything again.

I'm taking my things.

-Where's my dress?
-Not done yet.

-What are you doing, Marcela?
-Where is it?

-It's not finished yet.
-Where!

-What's wrong with you?
-Here it is.

No!

-I hate you!
-What are you doing?

I hate you, Armando!

-Marcela, no!
-No!

-Get a hold of yourself.
-I hate you!

I hate you!

I hate everything about you!

-I hate you.
-Get a hold of yourself, honey.

Control yourself.

I get that you're disappointed.

I am too.

What Armando did is unacceptable.

To lie to all of us how he did.

But to lose control of yourself
in front of the employees?

I honestly don't understand it,
and I can't excuse it.

Your son is the most miserable wretch
I've ever known, Margarita.

Marcela, we're talking about my son.

Calm down, sweetie.

I know that fudging
those reports was crazy,

but don't confuse things.

You destroyed your dress
just days before the wedding.

Wedding?

What wedding?

You still think I'd marry Armando
after everything he did? No.

He didn't just ruin this company.

He ruined my life forever.

What a day, huh?

Want to get a drink to help us forget it?

Marcela saw your video.

What did she say?

She would've torn me limb
from limb if she could have.

This is a disaster.

I'm the most hated man in all New York,

and with good reason.

I'm a piece of crap.

Ricardo, what were you thinking
when you made that video?

OK, I admit it. It's my fault.

But it's nothing that can't be fixed
over a few drinks.

-Join me?
-No, you go.

I'm going to see Betty.

What would you like?
Water? A coke? Lemonade?

You cried the whole way here, Betty.
You're probably dehydrated.

-I'm fine. Hi.
-Betty.

-Hi.
-What are you doing here so early?

Have you been crying? Why?

I quit V&M.

I'm never going back.

Is that why you're so sad?

A little. But I found another job.

Ms. Catalina asked me to work with her.

You see?

God never gives you more
than you can handle.

He loves you, and has sent you
that woman, that angel.

The only thing is that it's in Miami.

I'd have to leave today.

Oh, my goodness. So much news.

Your father's going to flip.

Yes, it all happened so fast.

I should call Ms. Catalina
and thank her but decline...

What? No way. Put that away.

Of course she won't.

Listen carefully, honey.

The best thing you could've done

is quit that demanding job
and leave that exploitative man.

Yeah.

You're leaving today
to begin your new life.
