All language subtitles for The Surrogacy_S01E22_Episode 22.English (CC)

I made the mistake of helping Arturo
when he killed Irene.

I agree with you,

because the visitor records
don't mention Arturo.

They were deleted
because a man wearing a disguise

would be the first person
they would suspect.

Let's go.

[tense music playing]

[door closes]

I've tried hard to protect
my inner circle, you know,

which you are a part of, Nestor.

You're the only one
who I trusted completely

because you've never gone
behind my back, until now.

Arturo was smart about it,

and only people like you
can contradict him.

The murder weapon was never found either.

Now I'm supposed to help him
kidnap Yeni and Tessa?

That's what you'll make him believe,
so we can trap him.

We'll have the police catch him
in the act and stop him

before he can hurt either of them.

As for his friends from Kurul,
they'll have no choice

but to strip him of his status
so he can stand trial.

Now drive.

[opening theme music playing]

THE SURROGACY

[laughs]

I think Keyus' shirts
are still a little big.

Mom, are we going back home?

Yes, as soon as Roberto tells me
he's moving forward.

I'd rather stay here
and go to school with Kika.

But we can talk about that later.

Tell me how it went.

Well, Balo is the one
who can testify against Arturo.

And it takes more
than a signed statement

to accuse someone
of criminal wrongdoing.

But the bigger problem
is that Tessa's reaction

to finding out
I'm her mother was rejection.

She's very close to her grandmother,

and that's complicated
because Nora knows about everything,

and she rejected Tessa, too.

-[knock on door]
-[door opens]

[Carlos] Tessa!

Sweetheart?

Hey, sweetie.

You look lovely.

I want to look good for Grandma.

Can we please talk?

Grandma.

I haven't been this upset
since I lost both of my parents and...

it makes me realize
that losing you too would kill me.

I don't want to lose you either.

Blood doesn't determine
what we will become.

Look at your father and your aunt.
They don't have my character.

But Luciano, he has what it takes.

Ten minutes with that boy standing up
to me in my own office, and I knew it.

Whereas yesterday,
you did something I can't respect.

You were ready to get down
on your knees and beg.

And that is pure weakness.

So you're going to have to show me
what you're made of

or else Luciano is going to take
the reins around here.

What should I do?

I've taught you that manipulating others
is how you get what you want.

I want to see you use that
against Luciano.

[Yeni] You win, Luciano.

We're going to be staying at Keyus' house,
just like you asked.

[laughs] Thank you, Mom.

[knocking on door]

[door opens]

Sorry for interrupting.

Julia's here
and wants to talk to you, Yeni.

[sighs]

[Keyus] I thought you two
might like some tea.

-Thank you.
-I'll leave you to talk.

How's Tessa doing?

She's sad.

But don't worry, neither Carlos nor I
will abandon your daughter.

I wanted to talk to you
about something I think is important.

I really don't want Carlos
to keep suffering

for the decisions or the mistakes I--

Julia, I decided I wouldn't...

file the request to be recognized
as their surrogate.

Thank you.

What I came here to tell you
is that I've decided

that the situation with Carlos can't go on
when all he does is worry.

I don't know if you know,
but Nora and Fernanda...

have been his responsibility
for as long as I can remember.

And I don't wanna add to his burden,

especially now that I am convinced...

that he's still in love with you.

-You don't have to do this, Julia.
-I'm doing this for me.

I'm not interested in sharing
my husband's love with you.

The only thing I want now
is to try to find a way,

if at all possible, for us to co-parent.

Our children have two mothers now.

I know that I judged you
and that you judged me, too.

But the truth is that no one else can ruin
a marriage that only shared a roof.

Listen, I understand why you said that,

but I'd like you to hear my version.

We were both feeling so alone.

I just lost my father and he missed you,

and somehow, love was born.

I get it.

I felt very alone as well.

-I'm so sorry.
-So am I, Yeni.

I regret so much.

I think that what always united
Carlos and me

was our profound desire to have a family.

[Yeni sighs]

And...

and I would love that to continue,
even if we're not together.

You will get that.

[dramatic music playing]

Yeni took a letter to the police
in which Balo

accuses Briseno and Arturo
of forcing him to get rid of her.

[Marcela] Arturo didn't want Yeni
getting together with Beatriz

and the other women.

Balo saved her and hid her at his house.

Along with the contracts that Arturo
had the women in the protocol sign.

Our next step is to track down Balo,

and then we'll call all of you
as witnesses.

-[Nora] Count me in.
-[Fernanda] Mom?

I assume you're discussing what we've been
chasing after all these years, Roberto.

My testimony will be very valuable
in sending Arturo to prison.

And Marcela, feel free to reveal
everything you know, dear.

We won't hold you to the nondisclosure
agreement you signed with the company.

We appreciate the help and information.

We'll remain available
for whatever you may need.

All right. Good to know.

Nora is up to no good.

What are you up to, Mom?

Didn't you promise to protect Arturo?

To keep him from knowing
he's getting arrested.

Why should we believe you this time?

Because when I agreed to your separation
and let you move back to my house,

I told you that Arturo
was like a bacteria.

But no bacteria's eternal,

and the time has come for us
to eradicate it to protect our family.

I agree that Arturo has to pay
for the crimes that he committed,

but remember that he is Nico's father.

I thought about it all night.

And the fact that Yeni
is Tessa's mother biologically,

but I also have the grandson
I always wanted, all thanks to her.

I watched the sun rise over the company
that my parents started,

and I was reminded of the promise
that I made them,

to create a worldwide dynasty.

But for that,
I need my grandkids, all three.

And of course, my own children
who will help me fulfill that promise.

[Arturo] Nico, you can't trust
what Nestor says.

He's the one who threatened to have me
held responsible for Irene's death.

But he has not one shred of evidence.

They want to get rid of me.

Nora pushed me into politics
for protection,

as if I didn't know that could be
taken away in a heartbeat.

Why didn't you say anything?

I'm playing dumb to buy time,
to protect myself against these vultures.

I'm not going to allow them
to tear us apart, Nico.

Your mother is trying
to destroy our family...

to go off with Pascal.

Well, I wanna help you.

[Arturo] My boy.

-[tense music playing]
-[sighs]

I don't know what happened
since yesterday,

but if they're pretending, I don't think
they can sustain it for long.

[Carlos] The important thing
is for Tessa to feel better.

And her well-being
is what we should aim for.

You got lucky with Luciano
wanting to see you.

Now get back to him.

Sure.

[sighs] All right.

[cell phone ringing]

Luciano.

It's your sister.

Oh, yeah. I gave her yours
and mom's number so we could talk.

-Okay.
-Thanks, Sonia.

[sighs] Hello?

Hi.

Uh, my mom said you wanted to talk to me?

Yes, Tessa.

You're afraid you won't fit in.

I know how that feels,

but at least I'm not offended being
associated with any group of people.

My mom taught me that we're all equals.

Okay. So then why are you rejecting
my parents and my grandmother?

Because I don't trust them.

But you expect me to trust Yeni?

No, but avoiding each other won't
change the fact that I'm your brother

and Yeni's your mother.

Look, I'm not ready to spend time
with Yeni yet,

but you and I can get together.

Come to my house.
My grandma's here, too.

-Sounds good.
-Great.

-I'll give you the address.
-[Luciano] Okay. Go ahead.

-82 Finca de Cerezos Road.
-[Luciano] Got it. I'll see you soon. Yes.

-Bye.
-Luciano, what are you doing?

What? I promised my mom
to help with my sister.

I don't know how this will play out,
but my mom's gonna have to declare

the agreements she made with Ochoa.

I hope she does
because Yeni made it perfectly clear

that was a condition
for us to see our son.

I know.

I went to see her earlier.

-Yeni?
-Mm-hmm.

Today? Without me?

You wouldn't have let me tell her

that I know that you're still totally
in love with her.

-Julia.
-What?

You told her what?

-The truth.
-Why?

What's the point of us
telling our children that from now on,

we're always going to tell them
the whole truth

when you and I play pretend
every single day.

I have no idea
what will happen with Yeni, seriously.

But one thing I know
will never change, Julia,

is that you can count on me forever.

We--we're a family.

I guarantee,
I will always be here for you.

I know that. And I will do the same.

We will always be bonded by our children.

Not only because of the kids, Julia.

-Okay. We truly care about each other.
-We've really been through so much.

I just wanted you to know
that I invited Luciano to come over.

-You did?
-What?

How did you do that, sweetheart?

[Nora] Relax, Carlos,
and don't look at me like that.

Julia gave her the number.

Which Yeni gave to me herself, of course.

So she and I could talk.

Yes, I didn't think you'd use it so soon.

Well, grandma convinced me I should,
so I could find out what she wanted.

But I still don't want people to know
that Luciano is my brother...

and much less that Yeni is my mother.

Is that why you're having him over?
To tell him you don't--

Carlos, you have to understand,

you two still have
to work things out with Yeni.

But it's important for her
to get to know her brother.

She might change her mind, you know?

[Nico] I haven't been able to see
my uncle because my mom was with him.

[Nestor] I know.
I took your grandmother to see Tessa,

but your mom left a while ago.

How come you're still working
for my grandma?

[Nestor] I have to keep my guard up.

She told me that kidnapping Yeni and Tessa
was actually a trap for your dad.

Should I tell my uncle?

Yes, Nico, because I'm sure
it's also a trap for me.

[suspenseful music playing]

I didn't hear you come in yesterday.

Hi, sleepyhead. You passed out.

[Kika] Felt good to sleep in.

-It's the weekend. Enjoy it.
-[Kika] Mm-hmm.

-[laughs]
-Oh, just a second, please. Come.

Here have a seat.

I happen to have some very good news.

What?

-Yeni and Luciano...
-Mm-hmm.

-...are staying in the city.
-Awesome! Where are they?

No, no, no. Hold on a second.

I also wanted to answer the questions
you have for me about your grandparents.

Listen, they always felt as if I had
stolen their daughter from them.

And not only because your mom
and I got married.

They also blamed me for how she died.

What does my complicated delivery
have to do with you?

Actually, honey, that's the thing.

You see, the truth is that your mother

hit Yeni's dad with her car,

and then her car crashed.

When they brought her in,
she was on life support.

You disconnected her?

Mm-hmm.

Sweetheart, there was nothing
anyone could do for her.

And she wouldn't have wanted
to spend her life hooked to a machine.

But I've read plenty of
stories online about people

who come back to life
after being in a coma.

Sweetheart...

listen...

do you think that if there had been
even the smallest chance

that I would've made that decision?

-Do you?
-[whimpers]

Your mom was the love of my life.

You have no idea how difficult it was
to let her leave us.

Hey.

[sobs softly]

[Luciano] Thank you.

[doorbell rings]

[sighs]

-Hey.
-Come in.

Thanks.

You don't mind if my grandma
and parents are here, do you?

No.

[sighs]

-[Carlos] Really?
-Yes.

Hi.

-Good to see you.
-Hi.

-It's just you?
-Yes.

Mom and Keyus went back to our old house.

Do I get a hug, too?

-It's good to see you, son.
-[Luciano] Yeah. Hi.

Do you have another one of those for me?

-No.
-What's wrong with you?

You wouldn't be here
if it weren't for her.

-Sweetheart.
-Tessa, Tessa.

he's your brother.
Don't be rude.

It's true.

I'd rather have a heartfelt hug
than a fake show of affection.

Luciano, I know there are a million
and one things we need to explain.

But for now, the most important is that
you know you are always welcome,

and that your mother and I
both love you very much,

as much as Yeni.

Right.

My mom sacrificed a lot,

and I need to try to make sure
that things work out.

So do you, Tessa.

[Nora] Good. Now sit, Luciano.

Please sit down and tell us
what plans you and Yeni have.

For now, we're gonna stay with Keyus

while we look for a place
to share with Sonia.

So you'll switch to a school here.

You did attend school
in your village, right?

I've mostly studied online, but I'd
really like to go school in person.

My mom has been doing the same.

She's been studying social work.

You will be able to do that
in the best school, the same one as Tessa.

Actually, I want to go with Kika.

In my opinion,
if you wanna be close to your sister,

you should go
to the same school as she does.

[Carlos] He can spend time
with his sister anyway.

He doesn't have to go to the same school
if he doesn't want to.

Of course not.

I just wanted to make it clear
to Luciano that we'll support him

with whatever he needs.

Thank you, but I'm fine.
My mom's always done right by me.

Um, I'm afraid I have to go.

You just got here.
Can't you have a bite to eat with us?

-[Julia] Can't you stay a bit?
-We've barely talked.

No, thank you, though.

Do you think
that you could call me a taxi?

[Carlos] No, I can't do that, Luciano.

You can't take a taxi by yourself.

It's dangerous.
If you don't mind, I'll take you.

Good idea. I'll walk you to the car.

[Luciano] Thanks.

The only thing you had to do
was stay in control...

because you didn't even have
to convince him to come.

I get it. Sorry.

Now you do like he did
and meet with Yeni.

[sighs]

I'm going to miss coming here, you know?

Me too, but now, we'll be a lot closer.

And closer to Carlos.

[laughs]

It's not about that.

And you're the one
who's always been there for us.

And I will forever be grateful
for the friendship we share

and the love that you show Luciano.

You don't have to be grateful.
I'm the one who's grateful.

After all these years,
you two have become my family.

[laughs]

-Come here.
-[laughs]

-Oh, Keyus.
-All right. Let's go. Get in.

[dramatic music playing]

[tense music playing]

[Fernanda] Nico?

Nico?

Nicolas, I need to talk to you,
sweetheart.

Hold on.

Please, this is important.

Sit down.

What's wrong?

You know that I'll always love you
more than anything...

and I promise you that we'll be fine.

But...

your dad is gonna be arrested
for murdering a woman.

Her name was Irene,

and for his role in an attack
against a group of innocent young women

who were all part of a clinical trial
for as many years ago.

I'm really sorry, sweetheart.

I am.

[Nora] What was I
supposed to do? Hmm?

Since you told Fer that I would help you,
I have to be on her side now.

And you have to make sure that Indian
doesn't ratify her statement.

While you sit around telling everyone
what they want to hear, huh?

It's more like
they hear what they want to hear.

It's in your best interest
to tell me the truth for once,

because if I go down,
I'll take you with me.

Don't ever threaten me.

And don't forget that I'm the one
who protects you.

Don't you forget
I'm the only one you have left

because you can't count on your children,

besides the fact
your granddaughter is Indian,

which you would have learned sooner
if you'd only trusted me.

-You--
-Tessa is going to see her mother.

And Nestor will take her
wherever you want.

Make sure you don't fail.

I want Luciano with me,

so that he believes Yeni
has left with Tessa and abandoned him.

Don't listen to her. It's all a lie. Yeah.

[tense music playing]

[Luciano] Hey, Mom.

-Hi.
-[Carlos] Hi.

I'll help Keyus with that stuff.

I was under the impression
you didn't come because your foot hurt.

My foot is fine, really. I'll go, okay?

Hello.

Thank you for driving him.

I called a few times. It didn't
go through, and your voicemail is full.

There's no signal out there. That's all.

Hmm.

His gesture's quite gracious.

You did a great job.

I appreciate it.

-You don't have to thank me, Carlos.
-Of course I do.

You did all the work,
took care of him and his handicap.

The result is a great young man.

Well, he is my son. [laughs]

It shows.

He has your same attitude

and the same beauty

and light that made me
fall in love with you.

Thank you.

You do remember that
this started as a game, right?

-Did it?
-Yes.

We even made our own rules.

You and I in the cabin together,
while it lasted.

-Yes. While it lasted...
-Yes.

-...we had rules.
-Yes.

What happened?

Did we lose?

-I think we did.
-[laughs]

I have to confess that I have
so many reasons to hate you.

And?

They don't stick.

So they're not awful enough?

You know what's awful, though?

Hmm, no.

If I could do it all over,
I wouldn't change a thing.

You sure?

I'm sure.

[upbeat music playing]

[grunts]

[door closes]

What's up?

Um, they're busy right now.

Why don't we take care
of the boxes out here?

-It'll be quicker.
-Sure.

-All set?
-Let's go.

I think I have a confession, too.

What?

I love you.

I love you.

Yeah?

Mm-hmm.

Julia came here earlier.

I know.

But I still feel a little

like the mistress stealing kisses
in the cabin.

And it's like paradise until we have
to step back into the real world.

You think that matters?

Are you worried about what
other people will think? Because I'm not.

After everything we've been through,
the only opinion I care about is yours

and the kids', of course. No one else.

Yes, but we know that your family
will never accept me.

And? I don't care.

Those who love us truly
and want us to be happy will support us.

I'm not losing you again.

Once was enough?

Too much.

I really--

[both inhale]

-[Keyus grunts]
-Last one.

-Yeah. Mm-hmm.
-All done.

-Let's go.
-Keyus,

how come you've never told mom
how you feel?

[laughs]

Well, you know, in life,
no one can make another person love them.

And because
I learned my lesson with Sonia.

But how do you know if you've never tried?

My friendship with your mother
is what's most important,

and I would never want to risk it.

Anyway, your mom loves Carlos.

That's how love goes.

When it's mutual, it's magic.

When it's not, it's painful,
but you'll learn that on your own.

Keyus, you know
I'll always think of you as my dad.

Ah, Luciano, you know,
you will always be the son

who I would go visit
every single weekend, yeah?

-You'll save a lot on gas.
-Things are going to change

-now that your real dad is in the picture.
-Not everything.

You'll always be the one
who taught me how to play soccer,

who let me win
when we were racing or wrestling,

and the one who encouraged me
when I was scared during flying practice.

And that's how it'll remain, I promise.

Only now, it'll be different.

Carlos is a good man.
And he'll be a great dad for you. Hmm?

You're the best. I love you.

-Me too.
-I'll take these in.

Perfect. Can I lend a hand, huh?

No, we're all done. Thanks.

I heard what you told my son,

and, uh, I'm never gonna be able
to thank you enough for everything.

I can never repay you.

Luciano and Yeni
are like family to me, Carlos.

I love them very much.

And none of that has to change
for any of you.

I actually wanted to say
that if it ever happens

that you could need a friend,

someone you can trust,
I'll be here for you.

Okay?

[dramatic music playing]

This is ridiculous.

I am not a murderer,
and you all know it.

[man] I'm sure that's true and as soon
as you prove your innocence,

-you can come back to the party.
-I was expecting more support.

[man] I'm sorry, Arturo, but we have
to take a neutral stance.

You understand that no one and nothing
is more important than the party.

Yeah, yeah. I know the drill.

[Roberto] This is it, Balo.

This is all over the news
and social media.

But tomorrow is key because tomorrow
they're extraditing Briseno

and arresting Arturo.

We need you to appear
on a voluntary basis.

I'll be there with Marcela,
helping her with her statement.

We'll also discuss your defense.
We'll need to highlight the fact

that they blackmailed you
into committing crimes.

I appreciate your trust, Balo.

You won't regret it.

I didn't think he'd agree.

Fer wants to leave the country.
I need to see her.

That's convenient, huh?

When they're about to press charges
against her husband

for something she was likely involved in.

Let me investigate,
then we can draw conclusions.

I told you Nora was up to something.

Whatever she's up to, we have to focus.

We have to force her to testify with you
and confront her in front of Balo.

Nico.

Nora's looking out for your mom.

That's why she wants her
to leave the country.

I don't want to leave.

You're not going.

We're going to prove
that Nora wants to get rid of Yeni

so she can have Luciano to herself.

I need you to help me, son.

What's your plan?

Nora wants to hire some guys
to ambush Nestor

while he's driving Yeni and Tessa,
so they can kidnap and kill them.

In her mind, Nestor will get blamed
for handing them over.

But she told Nestor she was going
to call the cops on you.

I'm going to make a deal with the captors
to let me save Tessa and Yeni.

Nora won't see it coming.

-Without telling Nestor?
-[Arturo] Nestor doesn't trust me.

He'll do everything that Nora tells him,
but if I can pull this off,

he'll help me ruin her.

I need you to come with me.

Record everything on your phone

because you'll be
the most important witness.

When you post it all on social media,
you'll see Nora's true intentions.

[suspenseful music playing]

[closing theme music playing]
