Violeta, um…

I know you'll say I'm just being paranoid or whatever,

but I- I just saw Elmer.

He was hanging around Sabela's.

Um, I don't know. Call me back.

FOUND DEAD AT HOME UNDER SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES

Careful, careful.

Milky! Let's go!

Milky, in the car.

Come here. Come.

Yeah, here. Good boy. Come on.

THE GARDENER

Please.

- Make way. - Stand back please. Stand back.

All right, move along, please. On your way.

-Thank you. -Let's go.

Forensics have just arrived on the scene.

Violeta, call me when you get this, okay? I'm flipping out.

…the Costeira family home.

Quite some commotion in the office.

Let me guess. We're getting our bonuses reinstated?

The police found the body of Sabela Costeira in her house.

No way.

I wouldn't rule out that it's linked to our case.

Sabela and Mon hated our guy's girlfriend.

So he could've lost control again. We need to investigate.

It's a Homicide case.

And it's got all the trademarks of a robbery that went wrong.

Are you mad at me?

Are you trying to get suspended?

-No one saw anything. -Hm.

The only ones who know about this are you and I.

We said we'd do it together.

Tell me something, Torres.

Have you ever done anything

that is remotely close to breaking the rules?

-No. -Well then.

You should've seen the way those leaves glowed.

They looked like… Like Christmas tree lights.

It's… strange, isn't it?

All these people used as fertilizer for plants.

Yeah, sure, but we're gonna need to prove it.

And to do that, we need a warrant from the judge.

So we'll take photos.

And seeing how, after approximately two hours on the internet,

you're an authority, the judge will give us one, no problem.

It was three hours.

We need an expert to give us a report on these spots.

We're trying to understand how a body decomposes

and what happens to the surrounding environment.

It's called an island of decomposition, right?

-You've studied the subject? -Well, just a bit.

Uh… We're investigating several missing persons,

and we believe we may have identified the area

in which the bodies were buried.

- Mm-hmm. - We have some photographs here.

-Would you examine these? -Of course.

Hm.

The decomposition of a body releases a lot of nitrogen.

It's a great fertilizer that stimulates plant growth

and intensifies the green color of their leaves.

Although, this lushness may be attributable to other factors.

The truth is we need something more conclusive.

Yeah. One moment.

What do you think of this?

Hm.

Those spots on the leaves are compatible

with the possibility of cadmium poisoning of the roots.

- May I ask a question? - Of course.

Um…

If I bet at dinner

that the body of a smoker was buried under here

or another location very close by these plants…

- I'd get a dinner, right? - Possibly.

Could you write a report with your conclusions?

Of course.

Look who's here!

I knew you'd turn up. Want some coffee?

Here.

All this is for you.

The money Sabela was gonna pay you for going through with the hit on Violeta.

Now you can go back to Mexico.

Well, thank you very much.

I'll finally be able to buy the house back.

Did you ever consider refusing a job in case something bad happened to me?

Or you didn't care?

It wasn't that I didn't care, Elmer.

It was because I knew nothing would happen.

You have a gift.

No, I don't have a gift, Mom, and don't call it that.

- Has the hospital reached out? - No.

-Elmer? -What?

Did you tell her?

No. But I will.

And she'll still love you when she knows?

Hm. Let's see if it works out.

Elmer, I've left.

Please don't look for me because I don't want you to find me.

I know you're…

Well, I know that…

I know what you did to Sabela.

I should've gone to the police, but I don't know.

Maybe I'm partly…

responsible a bit, too, so I…

I'm going to give you time to get far away.

But then I'm going to the police.

Goodbye.

Fuck.

Shut up, you fucking dog.

Did you tell her anything?

What? Tell me why I would've done something like that.

Don't start, Elmer.

Why would I go around biting the hand that feeds me?

I have to talk to her.

Elmer. Elmer!

- What? - Please come and sit down.

Sit down.

She knows about what you did.

There's no going back.

Any minute now, the police will arrive.

But you still have time to come with me to Mexico.

Aw, fuck!

Shit.

Who are you?

Be good. Behave. It's all fine.

-What are you going to do? -It's nothing personal between you and me.

This is just an assignment.

Who gave it to you?

I couldn't tell ya. I never ask questions.

Hm? Everyone for themselves.

You don't have to do this. I swear that I won't tell anybody.

- You won't ever see me again. - Calm down. It's gonna be quick.

It won't hurt, I promise.

Ah, shit.

PRIVATE NUMBER

Elmer, I killed a man. I- I didn't mean to. I didn't mean to.

- He came after me. I didn't want to. - I- I don't know.

Are- are you hurt?

- I don't know what to do. - Where are you?

I'm not hurt, I--

I'm fine. I beat-- I'm in a forest.

I have no idea where.

Quickly. Drop me a pin, and I'll come to you. Stay there.

Elmer!

Elmer!

Where are you going?

I'm talking to you, Elmer!

You fucking son of a…

INCOMING CALL CHINA JURADO

Orson,

tell me it's done.

Things didn't turn out well for Orson.

I know who you are.

- This seems… - Viole?

Hey. Viole?

Hello?

Violeta?

Vio?

Wow.

Don't touch anything.

Doesn't this seem a little weird to you?

You should see how I leave my place in the mornings.

Look, girl, will you stop fucking around? I'm really worried.

Relax. For Violeta to leave town without telling us…

It's not normal, but what do I know?

She's not answering my calls or WhatsApp messages.

- What if she ran away? - From what?

- Elmer. - You're paranoid about that guy.

Yeah, but I saw him hanging around Sabela's house

the night she was killed.

You're telling me now?

-Why didn't you say anything? -I don't know. Because…

Because you'd say I'm paranoid, and I might just be.

Maybe I'm crazy, and the guy's normal.

-I just think-- -No, no. You're not going crazy.

That guy's really weird.

-We should go to the police. -Yeah.

REFRESHING… INTERNAL MAIL NATIONAL STRATEGIC PLAN

CORONER'S COURT NO. 2 SEARCH WARRANT

We got it. It just came in. They've granted us the search warrant.

Yes!

Okay.

Let Forensics know. I'll call in available police units.

We've got them, Torres.

All right, here we go, folks.

As you know, the judge has restricted us to the exteriors, okay?

Everybody, stick to the perimeter.

The areas marked in green on your maps. If you have any questions, let me know.

You can tell she's an actress. She can sure make an entrance.

She's an artist.

Good afternoon.

Is something wrong?

China Jurado, we have a warrant entitling us to search your property.

It's all in order.

You can look it over while we proceed with our work if you don't mind.

May I, please?

Very well.

But you won't find anything here.

We'll see about that.

Let's go!

Down the back!

What the hell is this shit?

- We have to dig. - There's nothing here.

But they might find remains.

She can just say the soil came from somewhere else.

What the hell do you think you're doing? Why don't you go hug a fucking tree?

This won't end here, I swear.

We're outta here.

Listen, Orson. You're gonna love what I have here.

Youth, the divine treasure!

We have a visitor, Orson.

Can you please help me turn off the lights?

POLICE

Hello.

We'd like to report a missing person.

Inspectors Torres and Carrera are away at the moment.

Take a seat and wait.

Are there no other police officers we can see?

Yes, but for a missing person, they're the ones you need to speak to.

Thanks.

She's still not answering.

Violeta!

Are you okay? Are you hurt?

His name's Orson.

I know because your mother called him that.

Can you explain that to me?

Sabela Costeira paid us to…

She hired us to make you disappear.

What are you? A family of assassins?

I'm sorry.

I thought if I eliminated Sabela, it'd solve the problem, but no.

I didn't think of my mom.

Right.

I have to get away from here, leave…

-Go to some small town. -No. Violeta.

-To Portugal, or-- -You don't have to go anywhere.

They'll investigate, find the body…

-I'll go to prison. -Hey. Everything will be fine.

Violeta.

I'm going to take care of it.

Put these on.

And Mon? Did you make him disappear, too?

How many more?

Eleven.

But why not kill me as well?

Because I couldn't.

I studied you. I knew you and Milky were going for a walk in the forest.

How were you going to do it?

What's important is that I didn't.

And you kissed me.

- So my kiss saved my life. - It changed everything.

- What do you mean? - In me.

You changed everything in me.

I know you have 32 freckles on your face, 13 flecks in your left iris,

and when you're anxious, you bite your lower lip.

You've never been in love?

No.

You must think I'm a freak.

Not at all.

Um, I really need to see you. Where are you?

At the police station, with Lúa.

- Why? - Did you listen to my voicemail?

- No. - Fuck.

Last night I saw Elmer in front of Sabela's house,

and this morning, she was found dead.

I think he was the one who did it.

No, no, no. Elmer couldn't hurt anyone, honestly.

Catuxa, you need to take my word for it, please.

♪ Was it worth it all? ♪

Okay.

♪ Could it be more? ♪

C'mon, let's go.

I don't understand what came over you, Torres.

This isn't like you. What were you playing at?

We carried out the investigation in line with procedures.

Don't give me that crap.

You know very well you should've taken this case to Homicide.

That was our intention, but we didn't have the evidence, sir.

-That's why we went to search the nursery. -They're guilty, Commissioner.

Then congratulations.

It is a disaster of widely epic proportions.

We'll catch them, sir. We know their M.O. We know how they do it.

So when they try it again, we'll be ready to pounce on them.

Is that what you think?

That you're going to be working here much longer.

We think our killers may also be responsible for Sabela Costeira.

Thanks for the insight, Carrera.

But we already found him.

He crashed his car going round a bend on the way to Portugal.

Don't worry. I've seen worse. It's all the same in the end.

It just pisses me off that he's right.

I totally fucked up.

You have to give me some credit. I fucked up, too.

Do you want to go get a beer?

I have to go home.

I'll see you around then, Torres.

Your friend Orson is dead.

I spoke to her, Elmer.

Violeta is fine. In case you're interested.

- You told her, huh? - Yes, I told her.

- Hm. - But don't worry.

Only a crazy person would be with me knowing what I've done.

This is the moment we've been waiting for. We can leave.

What did you do with all our earnings?

Is that all you want?

This is my money.

Because I committed the murders.

The police were here today.

With a search warrant for the grounds.

Do you know what I had to do?

I had to move everything that was down there.

Before they got here.

And dump it all into the sea.

Congratulations.

Take your share.

What's wrong with you?

You already had what I took from Sabela Costeira.

And you tried to kill Violeta. Why?

So you'd survive.

To save you, son.

You have a tumor growing inside of your brain, right?

I want you to live long.

You did it out of love?

Very well.

Just burn it then.

Burn the money.

Burn all of the money, Mom!

Burn it!

Burn it all, Mom.

You can't do it.

Throw it away.

- Oh, Doctor. He… - Yes?

He was unconscious on the floor. He might've hit his head.

Don't worry, Mrs. Jurado. I'll find you when we're done.

Thank you.

Viole.

Do you need anything?

No.

Come on. Tell me what you need.

Tell me what you want me to do, and I'll do it.

Wake me up in…

two years.

When this is all over and done with.

It'll be okay. You'll forget him.

No.

No, no. I'll never forget.

You know what the worst part is?

That this city insists on reminding me of…

of everything that has gone wrong in my whole life.

There are my parents…

Xoan…

And Elmer.

I don't want to stay.

I can't bear it.

Hey, honey.

It all went really well.

I cannot move my arm.

This one?

That's normal, my love.

The doctor told me that it will take a few days.

But then, it will go away.

Because you came through well, Elmer.

I didn't want the operation.

You had passed out, Elmer.

I didn't forget what happened in the nursery.

What happened is what had to happen to you, son.

And what if I had died?

You didn't.

And here you are.

Here we are.

Together.

Thank you, God. You saved my son.

It all went well. Thank you.

Thank you for guiding us in your divine wisdom and perfect time.

May it always be so.

Always, always.

The operation took away his emotions

but gave Elmer back his life.

And he went back to his plants. To his gardens.

And to his greenhouse.

At first, I believed that, in time,

our life would go back to how it was before.

That hasn't happened.

He hasn't forgiven me.

Elmer.

But any mother would have done the same thing in that situation.

I can see resentment on his face.

Sometimes I think he's faking it.

That it's simply a memory of the last thing he ever felt for me.

And then sometimes,

I'm terrified.

If there's anything I've learned these past few months,

it's that one should always expect the unexpected.

Hi, Elmer.

What are you doing here?

I was asking around about you.

So you decided to stay.

Yes.

I stayed after all.

And how are you?

Well.

And you?

I need to hire you.

I need you to send someone away.
