Sugey.

We have a search warrant. We're coming in.

-What? What's going on? -What?

Calm down, ma'am. Everything's in the warrant. Come in.

-What are you doing here? -What is this?

-Step aside. -I don't know. I don't understand.

-Why? -Read it, please.

-This. -Leave it there.

-Don't touch that. -That's mine.

-Go over there, please. -Ikal!

What's happening, Mom?

What's going on there? What's happening there?

Leave it there, please.

What's happening, Mom? What's going on?

-Calm down. -What is this?

What is this?

Look, Inspector, what does the Iturrieta case

have to do with our house?

Boss.

-That's not ours. -What is that?

Is that yours, Mom?

-No. -It's not mine, I swear it's not mine.

No, that's not ours.

-Bag it as evidence. -Inspector,

can you explain to me, please?

Keep going, guys, please.

-No, you keep that. -What?

-Brother. -Okay, calm down.

-It's all right, sister, it's all right. -Really, it's not mine.

Careful, okay?

Wait here, okay?

Calm down, Mrs. Sugey, calm down.

You heard the doctor.

They caught it in time. The prognosis is good.

Losing a breast,

living the rest of my life as a mutilated woman.

If I live at all.

Great prognosis, Delfino.

Well, but don't get ahead of yourself.

Okay, that's enough, I don't want to talk about that anymore.

Juan only knows that I had a biopsy and that's it.

I don't want him to know anything else for now.

And Zoé?

Even less.

I don't want her to know anything about this.

No, please. Delfino, really.

Promise me you won't tell anyone.

And not a single word to Juan about the surgery.

Alright, yes, yes. I'm here for you, whatever you need.

I promise you.

Promise me you mean it.

Promise.

AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY

COLLISION

Robles & Associates will not rest until justice is served.

What do you think?

Very clear. Good.

Very good.

-I do like it. -Guys, guys!

They arrested Ikal!

-What? -I don't know, Hernández says

-they have something on him. -What do you mean "on him"?

-What are you talking about? -I don't know.

-Okay. -Do you want me to set up

a Focal Point crew for you? I can send them now.

No. I need to know what happened.

-Come on, I'll go with you. -No, you stay.

I'll let you know.

Well, it's pretty clear.

An overdose of adrenaline caused the heart attack.

To that we add the stab wound in the neck,

this report, the ampoules, the cellphone message...

Enough evidence to prosecute him.

What's wrong with you?

I don't know,

It's hard for me to think of Ikal as a murderer.

Why? Because he's handsome and looks like a good person.

-Please. -There is too much evidence against him.

Whether you like it or not.

Yes, I know.

Well then,

move forward with the case.

Close it.

Yes.

-Hello! -Sugey.

Zoé, I don't understand anything!

I don't know, they found something but it's not ours!

Okay, and don't go out or open the door for anyone, okay?

I'm coming to see Ikal.

You know that my son would never do anything wrong!

Sugey, you don't even have to explain it to me.

Okay, I'll keep you posted. Bye.

Thank you.

My friend, I love you.

We need to talk, please.

I love you too, I just need some time.

I'm bringing some clothes for my son, Ikal González.

Ma'am, you know you can't bring in personal belongings.

I want to speak with the person in charge.

Calm down, please.

You people have something against us!

Or tell me everyone gets treated like this!

Ma'am, give me the bag. I'll give it to him right now.

Diego, please go with her.

-Of course, Inspector. -Don't worry, I'll take care of it.

This way, please.

What you are doing is unfair,

Ikal did not kill Matías.

We have enough evidence to build a case against him.

The ampoules of adrenaline you found in his house

were planted to make him look guilty.

-Why don't you get it? -I won't let you talk to me like that.

But you're not listening to me!

We have a lot more evidence against González!

You yourself said that Miss Ashley had accused him of paying her!

Yes, yes, and I told you it was a lie.

And I also told you that Matías always thought

-that the one who set him up was Juan. -But you have no proof of that!

We thoroughly checked Matías's cellphone!

And we didn't find anything suspicious,

not even an argument with Mr. Blanco!

Have you even listened to Ikal?

Did you hear him out?

Do you know that Ikal was in jail

because Juan accused him of a crime he didn't commit

-at Robles and Associates? Do you know? -Yes, yes,

González was found guilty and served his sentence.

Wrongfully convicted!

I just don't understand why you're not siding with the weak. I don't get it.

Miss Robles,

we have tons of witnesses

to the confrontations between Matías and González.

And all because of you.

That's not true,

Ikal had nothing to do with what happened with Matías and me.

You only care about putting innocent people in jail!

And what do you care about, miss?

Are you interested in punishing the man who killed your ex-boyfriend

or in defending his murderer?

I just don't understand why you don't investigate Juan Blanco!

-I don't understand! -Because my job is based on evidence!

Evidence! Do you understand?

If I had seen a single piece of evidence against Mr. Blanco,

I would already be investigating him!

Get a good lawyer for Ikal González,

he's going to need it.

Anything else, Miss Robles?

Hey, is it going to be much longer?

Twenty-five minutes.

That thing won't fall, right, lawyer?

Are you very nervous?

Well, yes, actually, a little.

There's always a first time for everything.

I wish it had been for a different reason.

Stay calm,

we're going to get him out.

As if we weren't all equal under the law.

I know.

Let me tell you something, Temastián.

When I was a child

I thought I had to stop being who I am,

that I couldn't have dark skin

if I wanted to fit in with the rich and beautiful people.

The kind of white people you see in soap operas.

But then I understood what is really important.

And now they respect me.

Some of them still give me dirty looks.

But I will always defend the rights of people like you

and like me.

I'm an expert.

Thank God Cristiano managed to find you, lawyer.

Think of getting Ikal out of jail

as being like this flight we're about to take.

There will probably be turbulence,

but we'll land safely in the end.

I assure you.

Sugey, what are you doing here? I told you not to put yourself at risk.

Oh, no.

I can't take it anymore. It's too much,

Ikal in jail again.

Hey, I promise you. I give you my word it won't happen.

Okay.

Let me take you home.

I need to see my son.

I know.

But trust me.

Let's talk on the way.

Okay?

Come on.

Great, they got you a ticket.

For the whole museum, not just for my exhibition.

Really?

-Yes. -Thanks, Frank.

You're welcome.

Hey, I have to see a colleague here at the bar

to talk about some last-minute things.

But will I see you inside at the exhibition?

-Okay, I'll see you there. -Okay, perfect.

Okay.

Baby, I just got notified that they have

everything ready for the presentations.

A car will pick you up at the company, okay?

Please, you have to go and do those presentations,

and I won't accept a "no" for an answer.

There's no changing you, Zoé Robles.

But I adore you,

I'll see you there. Okay?

Now wipe that look off your face. Nothing's going to happen.

Sure, nothing.

Look.

If you do everything as I tell you, nothing will happen to you.

Hey, what is it?

Yesterday you were very confident

and today I don't understand why you're scared.

Are you scared?

It's the first time in my life that I've been summoned,

doesn't that mean anything to you?

Alright, but listen.

You are the best actress in the world.

The best actress I know.

You can convince anyone,

it will be alright.

Besides, remember, we're one step away

from getting what we want.

Do you want to review what you're going to say?

I want to review what we just did.

That's my girl.

The one who's afraid of nothing.

Ikal González, who served time for defrauding

the Robles & Associates Group,

was also arrested.

-Hi? -Good afternoon.

-Am I speaking with Mrs. Robles? -Yes.

I'm calling from Dr. Fontana's office

to schedule a preoperative evaluation.

But I haven't requested an appointment.

No, it's a referral from Dr. Salgado.

We have an opening tomorrow.

Well, tell Dr. Salgado

that I'll make the appointment myself, and don't call me again.

Belén.

You have to prioritize your health.

Well, I'm going to handle this at my own pace,

however I see fit. Period.

A school and a hospital.

This didn't come cheap.

I assure you that the state of Sonora will remember your generous donation.

Well, the state and its senator, I hope.

Of course. Remember that a poor politician

is just a poor politician.

That's true.

Senator, I will be following this project very closely,

I understand that you've already started the bidding process.

-That's right. -Well, then there's nothing more to say.

A very promising outlook for Sonora and for our businesses, of course.

-Delighted, as always. -Congratulations.

-A pleasure. -A pleasure.

INVESTIGATION

I came because I don't want any trouble with the police.

Well, you should have thought about that before, miss.

You drugged a man

and took intimate photos of him while he was unconscious.

Those are very serious crimes punishable by imprisonment.

I didn't want to do it, I swear.

Were you forced to?

Who?

Him.

He threatened to do something to me if...

-I don't want to go to jail. -Who threatened you?

Speak.

I assure you it will be much better.

What for?

To send me to jail and have me killed?

Look, if you tell me everything you know,

I can put in a good word for you with the judge.

-Really? -Of course.

Your testimony could be key to putting a murderer behind bars.

You can be a very important witness in the case.

We can even protect you.

Of course, if you cooperate and tell us everything you know.

They paid you to set Matías Iturrieta up, right?

First that guy offered me money

and I didn't accept.

That's when he told me he knew a lot of dangerous people.

And that he was going to send someone to throw acid in my face

if I didn't help him.

And who is that guy?

His...

His name is Ikal.

Ikal González.

And how did you meet Ikal?

I work in public relations

at a very prominent bar and poker club in the city.

Ikal came to see me at work.

And how did you meet Matías Iturrieta?

At the poker club.

We became very good friends.

But he really liked to gamble.

And what did Mr. Ikal González ask you to do?

First, to encourage Matías to bet more and more.

It was like Ikal had a grudge against Matías,

he wanted him to hit rock bottom.

And what else?

One day he showed up drunk at the bar where I work.

I asked him why he wanted to hurt Matías.

He told me that it was because he wanted to be with his girlfriend.

And not only that, but he started talking about how much money she had.

And then?

He gave me a small bottle of liquid

to put in Matías's drink.

I didn't want to do it.

Go on, go on.

The next night, I put what he gave me in Matías's drink.

And I took him to my house.

And there was Ikal,

he undressed him and ordered me to get into bed with him.

Naked.

He took a couple of photos of us, threw some bills at me, and left.

I felt so dirty.

That's why I ran to warn Zoé Robles that the man was dangerous.

But she didn't want to listen to me.

I suppose you're willing to testify before a judge.

Yes.

Whatever it takes, but please don't put me in jail.

Very well, Miss Cruz.

Look,

for now, I'm not going to arrest you.

But don't even think about leaving the city,

because then we won't be able to go easy on you.

Is that okay?

Thank you very much.

Sorry for leaving without saying goodbye,

I didn't want to wake you up.

I cleared my afternoon to be with you at the appointment.

I'm not going to go.

Don't worry. Delfino is going to take me.

Hey,

what happened?

Is it about Ikal?

I don't give a damn about Ikal.

I think you should take your mind off things for a while.

Hey.

I don't know what you're plotting, but you won't take it out on Ikal.

Sorry, but I don't know what you're talking about, Zoé.

You know perfectly well what I'm talking about, the photos.

-Matías told me. -Alright, alright.

This situation is really upsetting you, isn't it?

We'd better talk later, okay? When you're calmer.

Excuse me.

Hey.

Stop barging in like a crazy person. It makes you look bad.

You look bad hanging around with that guy.

Let's not even talk about guys,

because you're the one with terrible taste.

Although I have to say that Matías

has been the only decent boyfriend you've had.

And one thing,

it's not Juan who's being held as a suspect.

So...

don't mistake who the real wolf is, dear.

Hey, Mom, are you really sure no one came in?

I always lock the door. You know that.

It's very strange.

Look.

Paloma, good to see you! Where did you go?

I went for fabrics, Mom.

Don't worry.

I'm here now.

-And why didn't you take your phone? -Because I don't have any data.

Well, this is very strange.

Someone must have come in, because they must have planted that.

But who?

How should I know?

I'll check here, see if there's anything else.

Well, of course, the chaos this news is causing is concerning,

so we need to establish a different narrative.

Right? I don't know what you think or what ideas you might have.

I was thinking we might carry on with the tribute to Matías.

Remembering the things he did and focusing more on...

Sounds good to me, but in any case, keep it low-key,

something to ease this atmosphere of panic right now, don't you think?

-Of course. -And don't worry,

I will direct the show, so...

Well, I don't think Bárbara will have a problem with you helping out.

If you're willing to help.

I'd be delighted.

Great, so once I get Ikal a lawyer, I'll get to work on it. Thanks.

Well, obviously you won't be able to use the office

of Robles and Associates.

But if you want, I can ask Delfino to give you your father's contacts.

He knew some good lawyers.

No, thanks.

I wouldn't want to end up with one of Juan's lawyer friends, no.

IKAL GONZÁLEZ INVESTIGATED FOR THE DEATH OF MIGUEL ÁNGEL ROBLES

GOODBYE, MEXICO IN LOVE WITH JUMEX

Margarito offered me a place on his campaign.

It could work out very well for us, right?

Power attracts power.

What position did he offer you?

Senator.

Cheers.

We'll see if you have to resign from Lithiotech, we'll find a way.

Really, Belén, I don't know what I would do without you.

I need Robles and Associates to be synonymous with success again

and I think Margarito is a good way forward, don't you?

Yes. No, I think you're absolutely right.

Let's see, after what happened with Matías and now

with everything going on with Ikal, we're in a really bad position.

What I don't understand is why your daughter

is interested in someone like Ikal.

-Because Zoé has very bad taste. -Yes.

But don't play dumb.

I know perfectly well what you did.

That brilliant idea with Matías's photos,

that's what you do without me.

That's why I'd better ask you first.

Well, but if she wants to break up with that nobody,

far from us, well, I'd be more than happy.

Let's see, but...

Do you think that...?

Do you think Ikal had Matías killed?

It could be.

You can expect anything from those scoundrels.

But please don't antagonize Zoé, I'm asking you.

No, well, she's the one who came shouting at me,

accusing me of everything.

-She's wrong. Very wrong. -Well, yes.

I noticed.

Well, I'll be right back. Don't miss me.

BIOPSY RESULTS

FORWARD TO: JUAN BLANCO

BELÉN ROBLES RESULTS

The parking lot is down this way, by the elevator. That's it.

Well, whatever.

They still haven't come for me.

Hey!

Amazing, so sharp. Frank has such a good eye.

I loved his curation.

And I love Frank.

I know, you make a lovely couple.

But well, I have to go now,

they're waiting for me in the parking lot.

My flight leaves in a few hours.

Your flight?

-Weren't you going to stay more days? -I know,

but two screenings of my documentary came up.

Zoé lined them up for me. And you know how she is.

No one can say no to her.

Yes, that's how she is.

Well, I would've loved to turn them down

and stay to take care of her, but, well...

-You know, no... -Don't worry, I'll take care of her.

Thank you very much, Delfino.

And take good care of yourself.

Take care of Frank too.

You make a lovely couple.

Don't let anything or anyone

keep you from being together.

And, really, start that family.

Listen to me, okay?

Well.

I'm leaving.

Thank you, Mauricio. It was nice meeting you.

Same here.

Boss, the photographs of Genaro and the mechanic.

Finally! Wow.

"After subjecting the photographs to all the standard tests,

we conclude that they are fake,

manipulated using sophisticated photo-editing software."

Everything else is just technicalities.

The important thing is that they are fake.

As always, you're right, boss.

Well, yes. But the only problem is that this throws out the only evidence

we have against Genaro Sánchez.

We're back to square one in the Robles case.

Not entirely.

Now we know that the killer has quite a bit of money,

enough to pay for it and cover his tracks.

And what if it wasn't a matter of money,

but the technological and criminal skills needed to pull it off?

GUIDELINES FOR A MASTECTOMY

RISKS AND COMPLICATIONS

No.

Think about it,

Ikal González was in jail for two years.

Plenty of time to pick up the necessary tricks.

If we add to that that he is a tech expert,

well, we have the perfect combination.

Yes, but why would he do something like that?

Are you really asking me that, Camacho?

Yes, boss.

Isn't it enough that his father was murdered

at Robles and Associates?

Why don't you leave us alone?

Yes.

I know where you're going, Hernández, but...

But look, he stole from the company,

in prison he built up enough resentment

and then he used Zoé Robles to get back in.

I mean, it's clear.

Well, yes, but frankly, that seems like a stretch to me...

It's not a matter of opinions, Marina.

It's a matter of facts.

He was even at the helipad the same day

the helicopter took off, isn't that clear enough?

Well, yes. But we already interrogated him,

-he told us what he was doing there. -And you believed him.

What if he threatened Ashley the same way he did with Genaro Sánchez?

We'd have to question Genaro Sánchez again and see if he'll talk.

Yes.

Hello, I'm Azucena López, Ikal González's attorney.

Attorney, how are you?

Commissioner, it's been a while.

I would like to speak with my client.

Of course.

Did you interrogate him?

Did you read him his rights?

Did you tell him why he was being detained?

Of course, Attorney. I always follow due process.

We know you don't.

That's why I'm asking you.

I need to review the case file.

Sure, just.

Find it on my desk, please.

-Sure. -Sit down, sit down.

I'm fine here, commissioner.

You'll get tired. Sit down.

-Hello? -David,

thanks for reviewing my cousin's results.

We were really worried.

Look, Juan.

This doesn't look very good,

your cousin shouldn't wait too long.

I suggest she have surgery as soon as possible.

Sure, I understand completely. Thanks for reviewing the results and...

We'll talk, we'll talk to her.

Alright, see you at your next appointment.

Thank you, David. Take care.

Bye.

Trust me.

I'm going to get you out of here.

Really, thank you very much for everything, Azucena.

For this, for bringing my grandfather,

you don't know how much I want to see him.

Time will tell.

It's important that you don't talk to anyone,

you'll only speak before the judge when the time comes.

Alright, I understand.

I know Hernández,

he's pulled a few dirty tricks.

They don't fire him because he's efficient,

but don't trust him.

Okay.

It's so frustrating because, honestly, I didn't do anything, Azucena.

Nothing.

That's something we're going to have to prove together

and for that I need you to tell me absolutely everything.

Okay. And how is the case going?

Do you think I'll be going home soon?

Let's see if I can get you released.

I'm going to file a motion for protection with the judge

and examine the evidence against you.

-Yes. -Save my number.

Thank you.

Cheer up.

-See you. -Yes, yes.

See you soon.

-Thank you. -You're welcome.

Hernández, I'm asking you to please let me see Ikal.

Under the rules, no one can see an inmate in isolation.

I understand, but you told me to get a good lawyer.

Yes, now his family has already hired one.

She is with him.

Well, I still need to see him.

-Please. -Please leave.

She's only asking for a moment.

You can make an exception, can't you?

Inspector, please escort the young lady

to see the detainee and stay with her, please.

Thank you.

Five minutes, that's all. Five.

-Five minutes. -That's all. Yes.

Give me my purse.

Let's go out. I need to get my mind off things.

No, look, you can talk to me.

What happened? Did you go back to the doctor?

No.

I don't even plan on seeing her again.

Well, but, did she give you the biopsy results?

Her suspicions were confirmed.

I have breast cancer.

No.

No, my love.

But what did she recommend?

Did she suggest any treatment or anything?

-What? -Surgery.

No, well. I don't want to talk about that now.

My love, I'll be with you through this whole process, you know.

You don't need to come with me, I won't do anything silly.

Alright.

Alright, well, think about it calmly.

No, I've already thought it over. I'm not having surgery. Period.

Alright.

Let's go.

Come.

My love.

Ikal.

You have five minutes.

Zoé, I don't want you to...

You don't have to explain anything to me, it's okay, really.

Okay.

Someone broke into my house. I don't know who could've done it,

but someone broke in.

I don't know, no...

I brought you a...

...a criminal defense attorney.

But they tell me your family already hired one.

Yes, Azucena just left.

She is a friend of my grandfather and she came from Sonora for this.

-Okay, it's... -But first,

thank you for getting me a lawyer.

Is everything okay?

Zoé.

I'm begging you not to come see me, please.

What?

Like you heard, it's best if we stop seeing each other, okay?
