You always say
that after your parents died,

your grandmother took care of you.

But you took care of her
more than she took care of you.

You've taken care of people
your whole life, Violeta.

9 MONTHS EARLIER

That's what you do. Because you like it.

But it has a negative side, too.

It makes you a magnet
that attracts people with problems.

You make yourself indispensable to them.

And you can't be indispensable.
It's exhausting.

Which is why…

…you want to leave,
but when you try to,

you hurt them.

Without intending to,
you do a lot of damage.

That's what happened.

[Violeta sniffs[

- I have to call the police.
- No, you don't.

- They'll question me anyway.
- So what if they question you?

Did anyone see you in his car?

I don't think.

Did anyone see you on the bridge?

I don't know.

Let's assume they didn't.

And- and I'll say that…
that we were together all night.

I drove you home from the club.

That's what we'll say.

Come on, get in.

How many guys since we broke up?

Stop the car! I wanna get out now.

2 UNREAD MESSAGES

GOOD MORNING!

WANT TO TAKE A RIDE IN MY CONVERTIBLE?

WHAT ARE YOU UP TO TODAY?

I HAVE A MUSEUM VISIT WITH THE KIDS

I'VE GOT A GREAT PLAN FOR TONIGHT

Only a mother could understand
how deeply I was suffering at that time.

I'M SEEING FRIENDS…
GIRLS' NIGHT OUT!

I couldn't sleep.

I stayed up all night
thinking how to get my son back.

SORRY. ANOTHER DAY.

As it turned out, the solution
was right in front of my eyes.

Elmer's heart was, as they say, brand new.

I just had to give him the slightest push

to teach him that a person who loves

is a person… who suffers.

THE GARDENER

He clearly lives in Pontevedra
or the surrounding area.

Do you think it's a serial killer?

Doesn't it creep you out a little
to say, "serial killer"?

Yeah.

Like a chill running down your spine.

Do you think we should give this
to Homicide now?

No.

I mean, there isn't very much to give.

Yeah, you're right.

Let's find out a bit more.

All right.

When it comes to serial killers,
what do you know?

Well, I, uh… A while back I read a book
written by this expert in the FBI.

You?

Nothing.

So, I guess
we're gonna need some help, huh?

Mm-hmm.

This strong need for power and control

means that all psychopaths
have a much greater propensity

for antisocial acts,

as many of the characteristics

that are monumentally crucial
to inhibiting such violent behavior

are diminished
or quite simply absent in these people.

Thank you for your attention.
See you next week.

-Hi there.
-Hello.

Detectives Torres and Carrera
from the Pontevedra Police.

How can I help you?

Could you examine these documents
and give us your opinion?

I don't think this is the work
of a psychopathic criminal.

And how did you reach that conclusion?

A psychopath's crimes are driven
by their impulses or needs,

which compel the selection
of the same types of victims.

And here, you have three women

of different ages
and physical characteristics.

Then you have six men
who don't share any commonalities either.

This group is too varied.

Could it be a psychopath
who likes variety?

No.

What's more, the time gaps
between these disappearances

don't match this particular type
of psychopath.

The individual responsible
isn't a serial killer.

There are no connections
between the victims.

So the motives for the murders
have to be different too.

Maybe somebody had a motive
to go ahead and end their lives.

But that person
isn't necessarily our killer.

Or he was just doing his job.

-He's a professional.
-A professional?

Perhaps they're in the drug world?

Or a guy who was hired to do one
and then stuck around.

-For the good food and sunshine.
-For whatever.

He saw a niche in the market,
an opportunity for work…

Not much of one.
Only nine cases in seven years.

There may have been more.

And the price depends
on the demand after all.

What did you study?

Economics in Santiago. Where do we start?

At the end.

We'll figure out who had a motive
to kill Mon Santís and the swimmer.

Sounds good.

Please take his hand, Carlota.
Thank you! Who wants to go to the museum?

- I do!
- You! Very good.

Hold my hand. We're walking.

- Come this way. Hold hands.
- I'm so excited!

- I'm so excited!
- Me too!

- Hello.
- How are you?

Hi, kids! Who wants to meet Trea,
the prehistoric girl?

Me! I do!

- Would you watch them a sec?
- Yes.

Stay with our guide for a minute.
I'll be right back. Okay.

- Uh, hi.
- Hey.

What are you doing here?

I was in the neighborhood and remembered
you were coming to the museum.

-Hm.
-I have to tell you something and thought…

…I'd meet you.

I don't have time now.
I have to watch the kids.

I have a plan for tonight.
You're gonna love it.

I'm busy tonight, Elmer. I told you.

But I haven't told you the idea yet.

In a minute,
I'll show you where they lived.

Pardon me.
Would you mind taking them inside?

-I'll be right behind you.
-That's fine.

I'll be right there, kids.
Be good.

- Okay.
- Thank you.

Carlota, wait for me!

There's a meteor shower tonight.

The sky will be totally clear.
It'll be incredible to see.

And it's not something
that happens very often.

So I figured I'd pick you up,
and we'd watch it together.

Sounds fun, right?

I'm meeting my friends. I'm sorry.

-I already told you.
-The meteor shower will only be tonight.

There won't be one tomorrow.
But you can see your friends tomorrow.

Elmer, you're making this super awkward.

Are you angry? I think you're angry.

Yes, I'm really angry. Yes.

I'm angry you came here
without even telling me.

Especially when I'm working.
This isn't the right moment.

Sorry.

Don't worry about it.
We're good, okay? Really.

But you have to respect my space.
Do you understand?

Okay. We'll talk tomorrow.

-Until then.
-Goodbye.

What would happen if, let's say,
Elmer begins to lose his faculties

and it was impossible for him
to consent to the operation?

What then?

We would still need
Elmer's informed consent.

Uh, so, please don't judge me.
I just… I feel really anxious.

Don't worry, Mrs. Jurado.
I'm not judging you.

We've had cases in which patients
have declined to undergo treatment.

But they almost always end up
going through with it.

That's my only wish
for Elmer, but it's…

Well, you met him.
My son is unusual. He goes his own way.

From what I can see
of your relationship,

you're obviously important to Elmer.

And I trust he'll see reason soon.

But- But he seems so intense now, Doctor.

It may turn out
the tumor grows larger

and all of his emotions
get even more extreme.

It's possible that what he hates today,
he will love tomorrow and vice versa.

If you'd said you were staying in,
I would've made some dinner for you.

No, it's all right.

Look, I understand you, son. I really do.

But I… I think in return,

you should also make the effort
to understand me.

- You ruined something really special.
- I know.

What I don't know
is what you're doing here.

Instead of running off to be with her.

Why would you sit
with your horrible mother?

Tonight she's out with friends.

That's strange…

Why do you say that?

'Cause
when you're falling in love,

all you want is to be with that person.

That's how it is.

And your friends? Why would you hang out
with your friends if you're in love?

-No.
-I don't think it's strange.

Well, if you say there isn't a problem…

-There isn't any problem, Mom.
-Sure, of course.

The question is

whether this girl feels for you
what I know you feel for her.

Which I don't think is in doubt, or is it?

No, it's not.

- Come on, cheers.
- Cheers.

- To girls' night!
- Yeah.

I'm going to the bathroom.
Beer makes me pee.

So, one glass of beer. Just one.

-No, she's going to dance.
-Okay then. That girl…

How's your gardener?

-Elmer.
-Mmm. Elmer, yeah, yeah.

It was weird for him to show up today.
Pretty stalkery.

I shouldn't have ever told you anything.

No, come on. Come on.

It feels to me like he's keeping track
of you a little too much.

A bit like Xoan.

They're nothing like each other.

It's all your fucking fault!

Go fuck yourself.

You know I just wanna protect you.

I know.

And thanks, but I'm fine.

It just looks like you're making
the same mistakes.

And there are consequences.

Tell me what you're trying to say.

When things get bad for you,
you always run to me.

That was a shitty thing to say.

You know what? I actually think
he looks good for his age.

Really good. Or not?

There's no paper in the bathroom.
And it's over there.

Whatever.

- Hi, good morning.
- Good morning.

-Detective Carrera, right? Ah.
-That's right.

How have you been?

Well… …it's been hard.

But we're getting through it.
Little by little.

- I'm glad.
- Hm.

So I just wanted to update you some more
on your husband's case.

Have you found him?

We've combed the coast,
the bottom of the river, and… nothing.

So they've decided to call off the search.
I'm sorry.

You've done everything possible.

Thank you, Detective. Really.

It's a bit strange, though.

What is?

That the sea
hasn't given back his body.

Well,

sometimes, that's what happens.

Hm. Yeah.

Even so, we've decided

to continue investigating
a little further.

Well, thanks again.

Why?

Because we haven't ruled out
other possibilities.

Your husband,
did he happen to have any enemies?

Anyone who'd wanna hurt him?

Gosh, no. I don't know.

I mean he never told me anything.

So right, if, uh…
If you have any other ideas,

no matter how far-fetched,
make sure to call me. Okay?

Okay, appreciate your help.

Thank you.

That was a friend of Mon's.

The only person
Mon had a problem with was Violeta. Hm.

-Okay.
-He says they had a few tense run-ins.

She lied to us, but it might not have been
enough to kill someone over.

Got anything better?

I went to see the swimmer's wife.

She looks ten years younger
and doesn't seem bothered

about us calling off
the search for the body.

- She doesn't miss him?
- The son doesn't either.

I went to their house
and spoke to the neighbors.

The swimmer was a monster.

Not long ago,
an ambulance came to treat the kid.

So he was an abusive father.

Which is a good reason
to want someone dead.

ABUSER

Hello.

Hi. How are you?

Good.

I've passed by hundreds of times
but never walked this way. Wow.

-Yes, it's a very special place.
-Mm.

-Come here. I'll show you something.
-Okay.

Wow, this is incredible, huh?

Yes. It's a rockery that we made.

You can bring your kids here anytime.

Might be a nice place
for one of your excursions.

Yes. They'd like this.

Besides, kids always like
to get their hands dirty.

-Right.
-And they can help me find some worms.

They tend to hide this time of year.

Here they are.

- Grossed out?
- Mmm… Maybe a little.

Here.

-So how was your night?
-Good! Really good.

We had a great night.

How was the meteor shower?

Good.

- I thought of you.
- Hm.

Now I'll scatter them around.
Like in this pot.

Because worms actually aerate the soil.

Then, all of the plants
will flower a whole lot better.

The soil won't be compacted…

CAN WE MEET?

And no one's gonna put them there.
We have to do it ourselves.

Something wrong?

IT'S FINE.

Uh, no. It's, uh… It's Catuxa.

We argued at the bar,
and she says she wants to meet up.

Hm.

Mm, but you told me that you…
you had fun together last night.

Well, yeah. And so,
what does that have to do with anything?

MEET IN THE PARK

-Huh?
-Uh, well, nothing.

-That's what you said, just now.
-Yeah.

I mean, I planned
to spend the morning with you.

Yeah, but I need to talk to her.
It's very important.

You and I… We'll meet another day, 'kay?

-Yeah.
-Bye.

Come on, Milky.

Let's go. Come on.

Let's go.

The board of the casino
couldn't begin to argue.

No, no, no.

And so we are… ready…

So we'll have a beautiful space
for next month's charity benefit.

- Such great news.
- I look forward to seeing it.

Excuse me, but I have another appointment.

Very good. Okay, let go.

Okay, so I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have said that stuff.
I was completely outta line when I…

I didn't mean it
to sound so bad, you know?

Yeah, I'm sorry too.

I've been a bit anxious lately,
and I lost it.

But it's totally fine.

Good boy!

Milky? Hello.
Do you remember me?

Here. Here you go. Hm? Remember us?

You'll take a walk with me, won't you?
Look, come. I have more. Come with me.

Come with me. Good boy.

So, are we friends?
Are we not friends? Girl, what?

- What do you think?
- I don't know. You haven't given me a hug.

-I'm just sitting here alone.
-Ah, poor thing needs a hug. I get it.

- Oh, yeah!
- Okay. Good.

- You're so mean, you know? A real pain.
- I know.

-Yeah.
-Hey, do you see Milky?

I don't know.

-You threw the ball, right?
-Uh-huh. That way.

- That way?
- Yeah.

- Milky?
- Milky? Hey, come here!

Milky?

Milky?!

Come here!

Milky?

Milky?

- Here, boy!
- Come here, sweetheart.

Hi. Sorry, have you seen a dog?

He's small, white with brown spots…

Uh, my friend threw the ball
that way I think. Have you seen him or…?

- No, we haven't seen him.
- Sorry. We haven't seen anything.

I don't understand this.
He comes when I call him, always.

What if he was stolen?

- Can I help you?
- That won't be necessary.

Milky?

Milky?

Milky?!

Why are you shouting like that?

Where's my dog?

I don't like animals.

I'm allergic.

If you do anything to hurt him,
you will regret it.

I don't doubt it.

- That's what you did to Xoan, isn't it?
- Where is my dog?

Where's Milky?

Okay, fine.

I'll tell you what really happened.

- Can I drive you home?
- What are you doing here, Xoan?

A friend told me you'd be here.
And, uh, I thought we could talk.

Well, no thanks. I just ordered a ride.

Cancel it. I've been thinking
about something, and I want your thoughts.

- Xoan.
- You've always given good advice.

And we can talk as friends.
Come on, get in.

Please?

I should never
have gotten in the car.

It was a mistake.

Didn't you tell the police
that you weren't on the bridge?

I lied.

I'm gonna fix up my dad's sailboat.

And when it's done,
I'll take a trip around the world.

That sounds great.

Will you come with me?

No.

Xoan, that's your dream. Not mine.

Right.

Your dream is to completely abandon me.

Come on. Please don't start.

So you can go back
to your rowing guys.

How many guys
you fucked since we broke up?

A hundred.

I fucked a hundred guys.
What do you think?

You're a slut, that's what I think.

I'm getting out.
Please stop the car.

Xoan, what are you doing? Stop.

Stop the car! I wanna get out now!

Stop the car, you're scaring me!

-Xoan, stop the car! Stop the car now!
-Stop!

I'm sorry,
but you make me say those things.

Stop the car. Stop the car. Stop the car!

-No one will love you like I do.
-Stop the-- Oh, my God!

I hope no one loves me the way you do
because I can't take more of this. Get it?

I will never in my whole fucking life
get back with you, so stop the car!

Do you realize that you almost killed us?

It's all your fucking fault!

If you want to die,
just kill yourself, asshole.

That's exactly what I'm gonna do.
Watch me!

Violeta!

Watch me!

Watch me!

Go on. Do it!

Do it! Go on, jump! I'll watch you!

Yeah, you want me to kill myself?

I know you're not gonna do it.
You're too weak.

I know you too well, Xoan.
You just want my attention.

That's all you're doing.
Begging for attention.

You're a fucking mama's boy.

You are such a bitch, Violeta.

You are a bitch.

And you'll die alone.

It was an accident.

Xoan!

Why didn't you tell
this story of yours to the police?

I was really scared.

I didn't think they'd believe me.

Get out.

And Milky?

Sabela, where's Milky? Give him back.

Please, do it.

I wanted you to feel a piece
of the pain that I feel every day now.

Bitch.

Take your fucking dog.

Did she believe you?

I don't know.

Violeta!

Jump! Go on! Just fucking do it!

You piece of shit.

You are such a bitch, Violeta.

You are a bitch.

And you'll die alone.

- Hm?
- Come on. Really?

- We haven't danced in ages.
- Mm-hmm.

Do you remember when I made you
dance with me when you were little?

And you'd be holding on
tight like this.

Your friends and the adoring public.

A big applause when we finished.

I love you very much, son.

I love you very much too, Mom.

Are you staying for dinner?

I don't know.

Hm. Just wait here. Hm?

CALLING VIOLETA

Hello. This is Violeta.

I can't come to the phone,
but leave a message after the beep.

-Do you think that we did the right thing?
-Fuck yes.

Sabela doesn't have proof.
It's her word against yours.

And I'll support you no matter what.
Ya know?

Thank you.

I don't want to see anyone.

Well, the man of the hour.

- Is Violeta here?
- No. She went out.

- Where'd she go?
- Don't know. She didn't say.

She's not answering my calls
or responding to my texts.

- Is she there?
- No.

- Her phone is. Why's it ringing?
- I guess she left it.

- She isn't here.
- Let me through.

-I need to talk to her. Please.
-I don't care what you need.

You don't want to see me?

You don't take my calls or text me back.
I don't understand what's going on.

I had a really awful day, Elmer.
Understand?

But what happened?

It doesn't matter now.

You need to understand
I don't have to be there for you whenever.

And that I won't explain
everything that I do or don't do.

I just want you to tell me
if any problems come up between us.

Fine, but I just don't feel up for it.

Can we have this conversation
another time, please?

Okay?

I'll call you.

Okay?

It's up to you.

Thank you.

Good evening.

The girl came
to my house earlier

Yes. Like I said, it's complicated,
but I'm on top of it.

In two weeks' time, you see,
my Xoan would've been 30 years old.

If by then,
that little girl hasn't disappeared,

then the police will hear everything
that I know about you.

That would really not be wise
on your part, Mrs. Costeira.

Two weeks.

Have a good evening.

Do you have something
to clean glasses?

I don't know. You can look.

- What is all this?
- Things that appeal to me, so I take them.

What do you take them for?

For nothing. It's a tick.

Uh-huh.

I've been thinking about what you said.

That I was missing
in the Department of Missing Persons.

I was just mad.
I shouldn't have said that.

Sure. But you were right.

And the part that keeps me up at night
is that no one forced me to go missing.

These past two weeks…

…have been the best weeks I've had
in many years.

For me as well.

Oh, shit.

THE GARDENER
TREES AND PLANTS

A police officer came to see me.

They suspect something, I know it.

Get a cart.

A cart.

So what did they say?

That they're calling off
the search for my husband.

Ah, well that's very good.

That's great. Get another one.

Because in three months,
the file will get archived

and start gathering dust.

No. They're not archiving the case.

-How do you know?
-Because she said so.

And she asked if I knew anyone
who would've wanted to hurt him.

And what did you say? Take another one.

That… …I had no idea.

So if you don't talk,
they won't be able to prove what we did.

But if they investigate,
they'll find out about our son,

the cash,
and they'll catch me before long.

Your son is very restless.
He's clumsy and hurts himself.

And you have a gambling issue.
That's all that you have to say.

You trust me too much.

Think.

The police catch you,

and your kid goes to live
with his father's family.

So not too much.

Let's get you one of these.

These three together? What do you think?

It's great.

They'll look beautiful.

Okay, great work, girls.

Hang in there!
Come on, you got this. Stretch those legs.

You're pulling well, come on.

Alright. That's it.

Hit the locker room. Go change.

Shall we?

Let's shower and go out, okay?

I'm not going out.

But a girls' night is the best thing
after a breakup.

We didn't break up.

You didn't break up, but…

…based on how you're rowing,
you must be thinking about it.

My advice? It's better
to dump them before you get too attached.

You're ridiculous.

And blacking myself out
will make it go away, huh?

You'll forget about it for a while.

What do you say?

Yeah, come on.

POLICE

Don't you think it's strange

that the swimmer's widow
buys her plants at the store

that the mother of the guy
who was the last one to see Mon owns?

It's all circumstantial.

Come on, she even has a van
with a side door like my baker does.

But we can't place him there.

I mean, we have no witnesses, no proof…
Nothing. Not a thing.

Wait. Wait a minute.

Torres, look.
I found it right by Mon's car.

- What is this?
- You'll see in a second.

Look.

Automatic sprinkler points.

He was there.

He made Mon Santís disappear.

Do you still think that the swimmer's wife
went to the nursery to buy plants?

The gardener has a business
other than plants.

We're going to get them.

Shall we celebrate?

Are you sure?

Yes, I am.

And you?

- One against one!
- That little bitch.

- Another shot!
- But I'm not paying

Here, have some food.
I made it for you.

The police are asking questions
about the swimmer.

-Okay.
-We have to be careful, Elmer.

I will be.

Aren't you worried?

No.

Then what's wrong?

It's not that. It's…

Is it about your girlfriend yet again?

Mm-hmm.

-She's not well tonight.
-Oh, no? What is it?

-I don't know, but she's not feeling well.
-There's nothing wrong with her, Elmer.

She's perfectly fine.

And so? It doesn't mean anything.

Oh, no? A person who says one thing
and then does something else?

That's not right, Elmer.

But now what?
I don't know what to do in a relationship.

Okay, I'll explain, son.

When a person is interested in you

or, um, cares for you
or has a crush on you,

they want to spend time with you.

If they don't have time for you,
then they're not interested.

And I'm hurt, Elmer.

Because you made a decision
that was difficult.

It hurts me that she hasn't responded
in the same way.

With love.
