Go to V&M, and tell everyone
I'm in a meeting with O'Brian.

Where's Armando?

He received an urgent call
from Mr. O'Brian.

Mr. O'Brian is on vacation.

Margot.

I saw Armando yesterday.

-What?
-With that model that worked for you.

-Naomi.
-That's right.

That ugly girl is covering for him
when he cheats on you!

That's why she caused
that scene on the runway.

So you wouldn't realize Naomi was there.

No, Ms. Naomi!

I'm going to handle the bigger problem.

Good morning, Marcela.

Spare me the greeting
and gather your things.

Wilson.

What are you doing standing there?

Betty's not a criminal.
She won't steal anything.

Company policy.

I could have a serious problem
if I don't follow it.

Better one problem than four.

Right? Eh?

Oh, yeah?

OK.

-Yeah, OK.
-OK.

-Yeah, OK.
-Yeah.

You have two minutes.

No, less. Five!

Excuse me.

Bye.

What is it?

-Wasn't me.
-Oh...

I'm watching you.

Betty, we're really sorry you're leaving.

We considered you part of the team.

Who fired you, Betty? Mr. Armando?

No, and it doesn't matter who it was.

The truth is that I embarrassed
the company.

Not me.

Me, neither.

Me, neither.

Do you mind giving this to Mr. Hugo?

Please apologize to him on my behalf.

I didn't mean to do what I did.

Thanks for making me
part of the Squad, girls.

I really appreciate it.

I'd better go.

Bye.

Cheer up.

Nice knowing you, Betty.

She must've broken a record
for shortest tenure at V&M.

In less than 24 hours she got hired,
made a mess, and got fired.

I was right to fire her, wasn't I?

Of course. It was incredible.

Don't feel guilty

because that gargoyle is
Armando's accomplice.

What she did on the runway was very bad.

Awful!

The worst part is she's lying for Armando.

Now what you have to figure out is
what to do with that philanderer.

If he keeps cheating on you with Naomi

and you keep forgiving him,
he'll cheat on you forever.

All I know is that I want to kill him.

That's what I want.

Speak of the devil.

That's what I think.

No, no, no.

She won't even listen to me.
Marcela's furious with me.

She probably saw Naomi...

or found out that psycho was
at the fashion show.

How can you be so sure?

Marcela, please open the door.
I know you're in there.

Marcela, I know you're upset with me,

but please let me explain.

Why didn't you wait for me
if you're upset?

Marcela.

Stop being childish,
and let's talk like adults.

Whatever you have to do,
make up with her ASAP.

Being named president had everything to do
with Marcela, and you know it.

It's not official yet.

Your brother-in-law can still
usurp the position.

The night was a failure.

I swear I tried to not get caught.

Add to that the disaster
that was the fashion show.

All right, all right, don't worry.

Look, thanks to that disaster,
V&M is trending right now.

You're famous, Betty!

The video's got a million views.

My favorite part is
when the papers go flying in slow motion.

The fall's pretty awesome, too!

Come on, laugh.

What?

If you're trying to make me feel better,
it's not working.

It was so nice while it lasted, Nico.

I really thought I could do it.

Think positive.

This is a good thing.

You can put on your résumé

that you've worked
in the fashion industry,

which makes you look fancier.

I was there one day.

Leave that part out.

Who's asking how long you were there?

Just include that you worked
in the fashion industry,

but not for how long.

Nobody needs to know.

What am I going to do?

Dad was counting on that money
for the lawyer.

All I wanted to do was help Mr. Armando.

We'll figure something out, Betty.

Don't worry.

Beatriz.

Beatriz?

I made the coffee myself.

Hi, Ricky.

Where's Beatriz? Did she not come in?

No, she did, but she left.

Don't freak out
because you've still got me,

and I do the work of three people.

What are you talking about?

What do you mean?

-That gargoyle was fired.
-What?

It was the least that could happen
after that scene yesterday.

Have you seen the meme?
You have to see this.

-I've seen it ten times.
-It's great!

Who do you think you are making decisions
without asking me?

Who's president here?

From whom? Who gave the order?

I did, Armando.

You expect that woman
to continue working here

after she wrecked the fashion show?

She's my secretary!

And she embarrassed us!

Are you aware we're
the laughingstock of all New York?

But of course you've got
a very good reason not to fire her.

What?

That Little Miss Innocent covers up
your filthy deeds with Naomi.

There it is! The truth comes out!

You're furious
because you saw her last night,

and you're taking it out
on a poor, innocent girl.

Yes, I am furious. Know why?

-Because you're a liar!
-Me?

Yes, you're a phony, a hypocrite!

-You lied to me!
-Sit down, Smith!

If Beatriz isn't at her desk by noon,
working for this company,

consider yourself fired.

Marcela!

Relax, I'll talk to my manager
when I get to work.

He'll probably hire you
as a salesperson or something.

But didn't you say he was a bad person?

That he was exploitative and a dictator?

Yes, but that's just it.

When I tell him I have
a friend just like me,

of course he'll hire you.

He'll be thrilled to have
two geeks to exploit.

What? Smith?

I even cleaned out my mailbox.

No, I'm calling
because there's been some confusion

and we need you to return
to the company immediately.

Run!

That woman is not coming back!

You're already imposed
that obnoxious Patricia on me.

I choose Beatriz Rincon, so she stays!

You're a liar.
You weren't at any work meeting.

You were at a restaurant with that slut.

Yeah, Margot saw you,
as did half of Manhattan!

Fine. Yes, I was with her.

-Oh, yeah?
-You want more honesty? Here goes.

She called threatening to show up

if I didn't come to the restaurant.

I only went to warn her to leave me alone!

Why didn't you tell me?

Because you're determined
to hear the worst about me.

What your assistant and my secretary did
at the fashion show

was spare you any displeasure.

So now I'm supposed
to be grateful to that nobody

for sparing me displeasure
and covering up your lies.

No, someone with that résumé
can't be a nobody.

What's more, she's really helping me
in my position as president.

Patricia can help you, too,
if you let her.

Please! We can't keep talking about this!

I indulged you and gave her a job.

What more do you want?

Are you demanding
that I be her friend, or what?

Marcela, please.

-Don't touch me.
-Fine.

I'm here, facing you,
telling you the truth.

I met with her to tell her
how much I love you,

how much I need you,

and that I believe in our engagement.

Which you did not make public.

Because I couldn't!

Sorry to interrupt.

-What's up?
-Bad news, bro.

The Parkers called.

They canceled the deal for the uniforms.

They found someone else.

No.

We lost them.

The shorter the distance,
the less force you use.

Just like in the business world, Steve.

This deal we just closed benefits us both.

I don't doubt it, but I don't understand.

Canceling this order is going to hurt
your family's company.

V&M is a solid company.

For now.

I've got other things going on
besides V&M.

I'm working on other projects.

Isn't competition always healthy?

Roberto won't be happy with the news.

No one else should know
about our agreement.

Please don't tell my family
that I'm your new supplier.

What's more, Roberto isn't
V&M's president anymore,

and Armando's unfit
to remain at his position.

Wait, wait, wait, Daniel.

Armando was just named president.

He doesn't have the experience
or that fighting spirit.

He's missing a lot.

Soon enough,
he'll be screwing up big time.

You'll see.

Armando, I need to know
what to order you for lunch.

There are so many menus,
I can't decide from which to choose.

-Make me a list...
-Beatriz, just in time.

Put your things down.
You're coming with me.

Yeah, OK.

What's the uggo doing here?
Who let you in?

Let's go, Beatriz.

-But Armando...
-We'll be eating at LeBlanc.

I don't want anybody interrupting us.

Got that? Nobody.

But Armando...

The uggo's back, Marce!

I just saw her! What happened?

Don't make a whole show out of this.

Beatriz Rincon will continue
working with Armando.

He didn't let me fire her.

No, no, no, you can't do this to me.

I needed her salary.

With her gone and me working double,

I'd obviously get her salary, as well.

Where did you get such a cockamamie idea?

That's not how things work.

I really don't understand
how you can be so calm.

This woman obviously knows a lot
if he brought her back.

She's been here two days,
and already she's more powerful than you.

Whoa, slow down!

I know Armando,
and this is just a whim of his

because I saddled him with you
as his secretary.

So now it turns out all this is my fault.

I'll explain.

You two will continue working
on a probationary period.

Sooner or later,
Beatriz Rincon is leaving V&M.

That's the price she'll pay
for lying to me.

Yes, Dad.

Resolve it however you like.

Nobody's better than you at these things.

OK. Bye.

-Mr. Armando.
-Yes?

I'd like to take advantage
of us being practically...

alone...

to apologize
for everything that happened yesterday.

I never meant to ruin the work
you did or Mr. Lombardi's,

let alone cause a scene
like that in front of the press.

I feel so...

Bad. So bad.

Don't worry.

Mariana explained how everything happened.

Let's make a deal. Let's start over.

What do you think?

Sounds good.

If you like, you can call me Betty.

That's what my friends and family call me.

OK, Betty.

I trust you.

You're very important to me right now.

I was just named president,
and I have to show everyone

that I'm capable of achieving
all the goals I set, you know?

-Yes.
-I'll be there to help you.

I've already shown I'm there for you.

Yes.

I have the utmost faith in you.

We received some very bad news today.

One of our best clients wants to leave us,
and we can't allow that.

So you're going to help me convince them

to come back to us, deal?

I'll need a great strategy, Beatriz,

and you're going to help me, OK?

OK!

-Bertha.
-Huh?

Put Beatriz Rincon
back on the payroll now!

Hey, wasn't she fired this morning?

It was a mistake, OK? A mistake!

Beatriz Rincon and Patricia Fernandez

will remain Mr. Mendoza's secretaries

as long
as their probationary period lasts, OK?

Yes, OK.

So I'll copy Patricia Fernandez's contract

and put Beatriz Rincon's name on it.
Not a problem.

They're two different contracts.

Beatriz Rincon.

Shh. Give me a sec.

Salary... OK, great.

Now Patricia Fernandez.

Salary...

Betty, what are you drinking?

Fruit juice.

Hi, Armando.

How are you, Tiffany?

Please sit down.

-Thank you.
-I'll help you.

I didn't know we shared tables
at this restaurant.

This is Beatriz Rincon. She works with me.

I wanted her to be here.

Tiffany, why was
the uniform order canceled?

You and I had negotiated that deal.
I thought everything was fine.

My father changed his mind

and made a deal with other suppliers.

Don't ask their name
because he didn't tell me.

What did those new suppliers offer him?

Two dollars less.

-Two?
-Two dollars?

Oh, please.

Ma'am, many companies have been defrauded

after being promised orders that
never arrive or low-quality products.

Did you ensure that the offer
fulfilled all the requirements?

Armando, wasn't this meeting
supposed to be between you and me?

I've got nothing to discuss with her.

Tiffany, please wait a moment.
You've got to help me.

Your father's not taking my calls.

Dad made his decision,
and I doubt you'll change his mind.

But if you want to try,
he's playing golf tomorrow.

You outdid yourself!

Thanks for making cochinita pibil.

Yummy!

This is torture.

Well, there goes my diet.

I need lots of protein.

-Ladies...
-I want more.

Have you noticed something?

What?

Our dear Bertha hasn't said
a word since we sat down.

That's weird.

She never turns down food.

I know my people, girls.

That only happens

when she's got a juicy morsel of gossip
to tell, but can't.

Isn't that right, Berthita?

Did you see that?

She's fluent in eye language.

One blink means yes, two blinks mean no.

Right?

-See?
-Yes.

So it's got to have
something to do with Betty.

No.

If not Betty, then is it about Marcela?

No, not her either.

Armando?

No.

If it's not about Betty,
Armando or Marcela,

the only one left
is Manhattan's newest diva.

Is it about Patty Fernandez?

I never thought I'd have
a fight with Armando

over a secretary.

Being president of V&M is no small thing.

Armando has a lot of responsibility
on his shoulders.

Besides, I think you're putting
too much importance

on this matter of the secretary.

No, Margarita.

Sorry to contradict you,
but you don't know her, right?

She's manipulative, and she's a liar.

Ugly Betty is bad. And ugly.

Then let Armando figure out
who it is he needs.

And you, don't squander this chance

to show how qualified you are.

You don't understand, Margarita.

I don't like that woman.

I want Beatriz Rincon out of V&M.

Don't be nasty, Marcela.

Marriage is a marathon, not a sprint.

Don't get Armando tired of you
before you marry.

Especially not over someone so...

So insignificant.

I can't believe it!

I can't believe Patricia Fernandez
makes double what any of us make,

and we've been at V&M for years!

It's unbelievable!

Know why they pay that newcomer
more than us?

Because she's friends with Marcela.

Oh, my God.

I've only ever gotten
3% raises every year.

Like all of us.

But that's the big difference.

We're mere mortals here,

but over there they're all
Dukes of Cambridge.

Does that b-word think
she's got a high pedigree?

Pedigree?

She's as ordinary as they come.

I've been saving up for two years

to spend one damn weekend
at Niagara Falls with my husband,

but what I have isn't enough!

Make do with what you've got.

That's enough.

Don't raise your voices.

This is very confidential.

Nobody's supposed to know
what others make.

That's right.

That's why as far as you're all concerned,
I never opened my mouth.

OK, so this gossip starts and ends here.

And not a word to Betty.

Don't you hurt that poor girl.

Don't worry.

Pass me the beans.

I can't believe Parker did this.

He'd rather buy poor quality
to reduce cost.

I tried to tell her,
but she refused to listen to us.

Don't worry, Betty.

Beatriz, I wanted to thank you
for helping me out.

I wish I could've done more.

You know, you can.

Did you take a look at my business plan?

Yes.

I'm interested in your opinion.
What do you think?

Wow.

Look at this, Betty.

It'd be less dangerous to kill yourself

than to follow this business plan.

His goals are too ambitious.

I know.

What made him settle on those numbers?

Could he be on drugs?

The good news is that it can be fixed.

And the bad news is
you'll have to tell your new boss

this his plan is dangerous.

What now?

I'd like more time
to maybe look it over again.

I like your attitude.
Meticulous and responsible.

Give me more time.

I can write a report with more specifics

and be more... critical.

Be more critical. Harsh, even.

The problem is that in two days

I'll officially be named president of V&M,

so any changes
have to be done immediately.

By the way, we've got a meeting
tomorrow morning.

Every department is presenting
their weekly report,

and I'd like for you to be there.

Yes, of course.

Great.

Armando!

I've come to give you
my letter of resignation!

I'm leaving!

You rehired her
just to contradict me, didn't you?

Then I quit. Bye.

I'm out of here. Goodbye.

Oh, and I'm taking Ines.

Take it easy. I looked for you but...

This is how you treat me?

Hugo Lombardi?

You prefer that four-eyed tragedy to me,
don't you?

And don't forget what she did
to my line sheets.

-That was an accident.
-So was the Titanic!

It was an accident
when Juan Gabriel fell off the stage.

What she did is a crime against humanity.

What is she...?
Get back. I don't want to see you.

I'd hate to be turned to stone
by your serpent-like hair, Medusa.

I understand you're upset,

but she just convinced me
of a wonderful idea.

So that thing thinks for itself?

Please.

What is it?

That you have full control
of your first collection with us.

Make whatever you want,
because we won't interfere

with even what kind of pins you use.

It was her idea?

No, it was mine, but she convinced me

that since you're the designer,
it wouldn't be a risk.

That's true.

You can do whatever you want.

You choose the material, the models,

and the location
of where you debut the collection.

You choose everything.

Or you can quit.

I'll go along with whatever you choose.

What do you say?

Here's what you asked me for.

Thank you very much.

You're a godsend.

Since Mr. Roberto's leaving,

we wanted to wish him goodbye
with a mariachi,

but we haven't gotten paid yet.

On Friday, which is payday,
we'll pay back everything.

OK.

Thank you very much. You going home now?

No, I've still got a job to do.

Oh, OK.

Hey.

-What?
-Is that a new cologne? I like it!

You want me to smell
like bug spray all the time?

-Obviously not.
-Excuse me.

No, no, no.

Come on, Sofia!

Goodbye.

Your husband's kind of cold.

Not at all.

Bye!

No, he's just shy around people.

You should see him at home.

He treats us well and spoils us.

He even cooks healthy for us

because he takes good care of himself.

He goes to the gym.

Now that our wedding anniversary
is coming up,

I'd like to save every last dime

to take him somewhere really nice
and show him a good time

somewhere he can show off his body.

Oh, Sofia.

Grandma always said

that when a man was that worried
about his appearance,

it was because he had a wandering eye.

Shut your mouth!

Heaven forbid. No.

Efrain and I love each other.

Really?

Yes. Besides, how could he cheat

if all the poor man does is work?

I'm here to fumigate.

I was told there was a rat problem.

Yes, I came because I was told
you were misbehaving.

Well, I've got your cheese for you.

This little rat has been
very, very, very bad.

I've got your mousetrap right here.

Where is my Mr. Rat?

Oh my little rat.

I'm going to exterminate you.

Come.

No, Armando!

No, I'm not taking another step
until you tell me where we're going.

Why must we take a helicopter?

It's been very stressful lately.

Let's go on a romantic getaway.

We have a very important meeting tomorrow.

I know, but I don't want to think
about anything related to V&M.

I love you and want to be alone with you.

Let's go.

No, Demetrio isn't home,
but he should be here soon, Mom.

Dinner's almost ready, Betty.

Please set the table.

Now?

I think I'm going to eat in my room.

Really?

The fashion industry is harder
than I thought it would be.

I'm serious, Grandma.

What's so funny?

Grandma, erase that!

Starting out is hard for all of us, honey,

and we all face problems every day,

but what we wouldn't give to be
as smart and as young as you.

Exactly, Mom.

Keep your chin up.

Mom, I'm really making an effort
to be optimistic, but...

I've got a lot of pressure on me.

I'm going to get to work.

It'll be a nice surprise for my boss.

Mom, stop it.

Erase it like Betty told you.

You're acting like a child.

Come in.

Why'd you bring me to your parents' house?

You know I love coming here.

It's where I spent
the best moments of my life.

Just wait.

Surprise!

Marcela, friends and family,

I'd like to tell you all
that in December of this very year,

here, and with all of you in attendance,

Marcela and I are going to be
husband and wife.

You're very important to me right now.

I was just named president,
and I have to show everyone

that I'm capable of achieving
all the goals I set, you know?

Can we talk?

Yes, come in!

Hi.

Hi.

Look at what I brought you.

Chinese food.

But Mom already made dinner.

Not that, honey.

He advertises everywhere!

He's the best lawyer in all New York.

The only thing is he asked
for another advance.

I still haven't gotten paid, Dad.

Don't worry.

I've got some savings.

I can take that to him.

Everything's going to work out just fine.

But just remember.
Not a word to your mother.

I love you, but you betrayed me.

You're next.

No, no, no.

Congratulations.

Thanks for being here, Daniel.

We'll see whether you make
a good or bad president,

but Marcela is my sister,
and I won't let you hurt her.

That's not going to happen.

I hope not.

I've got my eye on you.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

Enjoy yourself.

Honey...

I'm so happy.

I never imagined you
surprising me like this.

You deserve this and much more.

-Honey?
-Mm?

Have you thought of how you want
our wedding to be?

I want it to be how you want it to be.

It could be big, small,

here in New York, or in Las Vegas,
or on the beach.

I'll do whatever you want.

-Honey.
-Mm?

If you want to see me really happy...

why don't you fire Beatriz?

Sweetie, I don't want Beatriz
to be a problem for us.

Honey.

What?

Could you get me a glass of water?

Hey!

-Great to see you.
-What are you doing here?

I play here often.

Two dollars?

You're going to throw away a years-long
impeccable business relationship

over two dollars?

Armando, if you multiply two dollars

by 20,000 garments,
plus the rest of the uniforms...

Don't eat me, Betty!

Very funny, Nicolas.

I hardly slept.

I was up all night writing reports

on every department in the company,

addressing the same issues
in every department

to make Mr. Armando look good
in today's meeting.

It's a surprise for him.

Betty, I really don't think your boss...

can hold on to the presidency,
even with all the help you're giving him.

His business plan as written
isn't viable and you know it.

Well, with a couple of adjustments,
it can be done.

Couple of adjustments?

Not unless your boss doesn't touch
a dime of his budget.

Dang.

Three dollars per garment,

would you consider returning to V&M?

Steve, not everything is about money.

I couldn't put a price
on working with a friend.

Saving in the world of fashion
is impossible.

It's... what do they call it...
a contradiction in terms.

Yes, a contradiction in terms.

Yes, Nicolas, but if we don't save
every last penny...

Not you. The company.

Same difference.

No, it isn't.

Mr. Armando trusts me,
and I won't let him down.

"Mr. Armando trusts me,
and I won't let him down."

You sound like you're in love with him.

No, I'm a loser, but not that bad.

I know Mr. Armando...

would never go out with somebody like me.

Don't say that, Betty.

It's no big deal.

I've always said you're not
without your charm.

It's hidden, but it's there.

-You're smart.
-Yes.

Your eyes...

You've got a sincere gaze.

You know what else people have said
about my eyes?

What?

That I have astigmatism of 3.2
and my myopia is 2.5.

Are you sure?

Is this another of the Squad's tricks
to cover their back?

Of course not.

I swear.

It was I who asked Betty
not to leave Naomi's side.

Look, I know that model isn't allowed
to be at the company.

We just wanted to prevent her
from approaching Mr. Armando.

OK.

But I don't like working
with people I don't trust,

and you know it.

OK.

You can get back to work.

Hi, Dad.

Betty, guess what.

I've got the money
for the lawyer's retainer.

Since I'm out, I'll pass by your office.

I want to congratulate your boss
on hiring you.

No, Dad. That isn't necessary.

Besides, my boss is very busy.

We can have lunch some other time.

OK, fine, but I would like to meet him

and give him a present.

I saw these gorgeous socks
with diamonds on them.

Diamonds. Cool.

I have to go, Dad. See you later.

Kisses. Love you.

What's going on?

Let go of me!

What do you want from me?

Police!

I don't have anything.

Let me go.

Stay still, old man.

A shame Armando's been misbehaving lately.

But oh, well.

If he's apologetic enough...

The flower arrangements were amazing.

I know.

Margarita's got incredible taste.

I've got it, Marce! I have an idea.

I'll be your wedding planner.

Think about it.
Everything for the price of one.

I can be your flower girl,
maid of honor, wedding planner,

and I'll cut you a great deal.

Please say yes, Marcela. Say yes.

OK, OK. Fine.

But not a word of this to Armando.

I don't want him to think
I'm imposing on him again.

Hey, is the ugly girl here yet?

Yeah, she's here.

I saw her around.

She said she had to make copies
for today's meeting...

a meeting I figure I'm attending, right?

You'd be very bored.

Every department has to turn in
their weekly report.

Well, anyway,
the conference room is ready.

I have a big favor to ask, Patricia.

From here on out,
not only will you be shadowing Armando,

but Beatriz, as well.

-Me?
-Yeah.

-That Picasso painting?
-Yes.

Bigfoot?

That griffin?

Marcela, me?

I want him out.

I want Armando Mendoza ruined
and out of the company

as soon as possible, Mata.

That won't be hard.

Promising to reduce the price
by three dollars per garment is madness.

It doesn't make sense!

Mata!

Did you review my notes
about Mendoza's business plan?

Yes, and the financial projections
are incorrect.

He didn't factor in
the debt increase or the interest!

And that's not all.

He's dangerously increasing
the company's expenditures.

He hired two secretaries...

and he lets Lombardi practically do
whatever he wants.

Giving him carte blanche to buy
the material for the next collection?

That is so...

You will present an analysis report
at the next meeting.

Me?

Who else?

Let me tell you something.

I'd be taking on Armando,

and like it or not,
he's the president of the company.

Don't you get it, Mata?

If Armando leaves V&M,
you'd be my second-in-command.

So relax.

My people deal with things head-on
like real men.

Hi, Mom. I was just going to call.

Betty, something bad happened
to your father.

The police just called.

In what station is he?

Don't worry. I'm on my way.

Relax, Mom.

Armando's looking for you
so he can start the meeting.

I have to go.

What do you mean?
What are you talking about?

You think you're the boss or something.

Please give these to Mr. Armando.

Tell him I assembled

the individual department reports
into one.

I also made the shareholders copies.

I need to leave.
My father has a serious emergency.

Please inform him.

Thank you and apologize for me.

Here is the assembled report
that I prepared

of the individual
weekly department reports.

And back here you've got
coffee, water, tea,

and cookies.

Feel free to ask me
for whatever else you need.

I'll make sure you get it.

What is the meaning of this, Patricia?

Where is Betty?

As far as I know,
she didn't even come to work.

I hope it doesn't bother you
that I prepared the report.

I just wanted to prove my usefulness

even though
you sometimes don't believe it.

Congratulations, Patricia.

It's been a long time

since I saw such a detailed report
and such an organized meeting.

Congrats.
This is how a job should be done.

There's no need to thank me.
Just doing my job.

And the truth is
it did turn out very well.

OK, I'll leave you to your meeting.

I've got a lot to do.

Excuse me.

Dad, are you OK? Who did this to you?

I'm not giving you anything,
you damn punk!

I made this money fair and square!

Get a job!

They took it all, honey.

All my savings as well as your mother's.

I...

I tried to stop them, but...

I couldn't.

Don't worry about it, Dad.

The important thing is that you're alive.

You can make more money,
but your health is what matters.

So many years of depriving us
of things to save up money...

for when we got old.

Don't worry, Dad.

I'll get the money for that lawyer.

That's why I've got a job.

But Betty...

No buts.

You've worked hard all your life

for me and Mom.

It's time to pay you back
for all the love you've given us.

Hello.

Mr. Armando.

Where are you, Beatriz?
Why aren't you at the meeting?

I told you it was important.

I know, but I had an emergency.

I'll call you later.

Bye.

Dad, will you be here much longer?

I don't know.

If you like, I'll wait for you
and take you home.

No, honey.

You have to worry about your job
now more than ever.

Get back to work.

I'm fine.

You sure?

I'm sure.

OK. I'll see you.

Love you.

-I love you more.
-Call me.

-Take care.
-You, too.

I said it before, and I'll say it again.
That report was very well done.

Very detailed and organized.

Honestly, I'm surprised.

Me, too.

Why?

Patricia's highly trained.

Disregarding Patricia
because she's Marcela's friend

seems impulsive,
useless, and expensive to me.

You shouldn't have two secretaries.
One is enough.

You should fire that Beatriz Rincon.

Firing Beatriz so soon would be rash, Dad.

She missed the meeting
because of an emergency,

but I'd love for you to listen to her.

She's got much more training
than Patricia.

I don't doubt it, but Patricia's good.

She's very professional.

Patricia was imposed on me by Marcela.

How many times did I have to acquiesce
to your mother when making a decision?

What's it hurt to concede that to Marcela?

You sure this isn't a whim of yours?

No, it isn't.

Beatriz has proven to be loyal,
honest and efficient.

So soon? You just met her!

You've known Patricia a long time.

Furthermore, and I'm sorry,
but have you seen what she wears?

It doesn't look good working
in the fashion industry.

Why is everyone determined
to hurt Beatriz?

I don't want to hurt anyone.

What I want is to protect the company.

But you're the new president.

It'll be your decision.

Congratulations, Patricia.
You followed my advice.

In life, you get opportunities,
and you took advantage of yours.

You impressed all of us with this report.

See?

Armando won't keep that other woman.

Thanks.

I have to go.

Congrats.

Thanks, Margarita. I'll walk you out.

Wait, Patricia.

Close the door.

Sit down.

You're going to tell me the truth.

You didn't draw up this report.

Of course I did.

-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah.

You don't think I'm capable, Marce?

That's great.

Then explain certain points
that weren't clear to me

from last year.

Here it is.

I knew it! You didn't do it!
Tell me who you paid.

-Nobody.
-What, then?

Look, the less you know, the better.

Besides, you should be
happy and grateful with me

because I'll finally get
that gargoyle out of here.

This isn't the way.

And be careful, because if you do
anything illegal, I can't defend you.

Look who's here!

How was your emergency?
Somebody surely died, right?

I call you, and you don't say anything.

You even hung up on me!

I needed you!

I told you countless times
I needed you with me,

but no, you didn't care
because I'm nobody to you.

I'm just your boss.

You know how often I've defended you?

How could you gain my trust
in so short a time?

I'm sorry, let me explain.

I don't want any explanations!

I just want results from here on out.
Now go.

-Let me explain. No!
-Be quiet!

You stole my report!

I prepared it, split it up by department,
and you took the credit!

I did what?

I did not.

All I did was place a copy of the report
at each seat.

People believed what they chose to.

What did you say, Beatriz?

Ms. Marcela, the report
that you read at today's meeting

was prepared by me.

I only asked Patricia
to put them on the table.

That's exactly what she did, right?

You work for Armando.

You have to support each other.

In fact, you should be
grateful to Patricia.

Yes, she should.

But I did everything!

Teamwork, Beatriz.

It's fine. Everything's fine.

I know you're very good
at keeping secrets,

so not a word of this to Armando.

To avoid any misunderstandings.

Understood?

Yeah? Great.

Hi! Join the cast and me

as we react
to the premiere of Betty in NY.

It's an amazing quality production.

It's the best and most beautiful homage

that will be done for Fernando.

I promise I'll try my hardest
to find a good job

so I can help with the house.

-Excuse me, sir, but...
-You're not excused.

But Nature should excuse herself
for creating you.

It's OK, sweetheart.

I spoke to the head of personnel.

You need to send your résumé.

My what?

Your CV.

What for?

Have you had breakfast, Nicolas?

No, but if you insist...

What are you doing here?

This is the ladies' restroom.
What are you doing here?

All right, excuse me. I should go now.
