Original subtitles

This could be my dad.

What do you think?

There's no question.

It's your father.

The body you'll find in there belongs to Claudio Martínez.

Does anyone doubt that?

UNSPEAKABLE SINS

I brought you your food, sir.

I'm not eating it.

Take it out of here.

Get out right now!

I won't deny that

my dad's fortune grew like crazy thanks in large part to Helena.

She's very persuasive when she wants to be.

I mean, she's cunning, and

can manipulate anything.

Although, if it wasn't for my dad's contacts,

Helena wouldn't be where she is now.

Yeah.

If Helena just wanted to get money from Claudio,

and needed his business to make that happen,

then why would she kidnap him and risk losing it all?

Well…

My father was very cruel to Helena's son, Fernando.

He was the one who first got Fer into drugs a few years ago, and…

Fer became addicted, then he…

He OD'd a couple of times, to the point where he almost died.

And if that wasn't enough, my dad also used to hurt him.

That's why I think Helena wants revenge and is using you.

Sorry, but time's up.

Hey there.

Are you Fernando?

Yeah, why?

I'm Marisol.

I'm a volunteer here at the clinic.

Johnny asked me to tell you to come with me to the library

to inspect some books.

He says they have termites.

I know exactly what you're going through.

No, you don't.

I used to smoke crack.

And when I quit,

it felt like tiny little bugs were living under my skin.

I couldn't stop scratching and picking for hours.

I would end up covered in blood, before I got help.

How did you get through that?

All the stupid chores they make you do around here.

Like us getting termites out of old books.

My sister and Helena will never…

They'll never believe that corpse is my dad.

I made him unrecognizable.

You just make sure your family doesn't see him.

Impossible.

That's your problem.

We now have to inform the board of his death.

Then unfreeze his accounts and pay me.

Of course.

Hello?

He confessed, boss.

Reséndiz just told us the whole story.

Turns out he was the one who made the ransom calls to Octavio.

Reséndiz?

He's a clerk who works for the prosecutor. A real asshole too.

The guy's on the take. I paid him monthly.

I guess he thought asking you for a ransom was a clever idea.

Keep him alive. We'll find a use for him.

So, you believe what Claudio's daughter is telling you?

I don't know.

No.

No?

What if Livia hired kidnappers?

I was there when they argued at the company event

and he threatened to take away her mother's inheritance.

I get what you're saying.

But, Iván, do you not think what she said could also be the truth?

Look, Helena has you hypnotized. She knows how to control you.

She's using you so she can leave her husband.

She wanted to record him to have some evidence,

not hurt him physically, let alone kill him.

Well, that's the part we don't exactly know.

Helena's already gotten into your head.

She is desperate right now.

She has you believing everything she says.

From the very beginning, her plan was set in stone.

It was cold and it was calculated.

And what was it? To make you love her.

And, Iván, you did love her.

Enough to take revenge on Claudio.

She created the perfect scenario.

And why not? This way, she would have a willing scapegoat.

Someone she could fully blame when things went sour.

That makes sense?

And that's you, my darling.

You talk about her like she's a psychopath controlling everyone around her,

but she's not.

A mother would do anything in the world to protect her child.

Especially if she found out someone was hurting him,

such as getting him addicted to hard drugs.

There's nothing she wouldn't do.

No way.

There's still something about Livia that I don't really trust.

Ah.

I'll tell you exactly what you have, Iván.

You suffer from selective blindness. You see what you need to.

I'd be worried if I were you,

because it's a very classic symptom of a very common disease.

It's called love.

I did hit him, yes.

My dad hit me, and that's how I raised Octavio.

Your child needs serious discipline because all you do is mollycoddle him.

That's why Octavio hates you,

why he panics all the time.

-Helena… -You will not do the same to Fernando.

-What do you think you're doing? Mm? -Do you think I'd stay with you?

-You will. -You're crazy.

Helena, this is the best thing for all of us.

Especially Fernando.

Only a tyrant would say that.

You and I have something that binds us forever.

If you leave,

I'll find you and force you to watch me kill your son.

Helena, stop it right now.

You're not going anywhere!

If I fall, so do you!

We go to hell together.

We can now rule out that your father was kidnapped.

The question is, how do we make sure he won't appear again?

Shouldn't you just… Shouldn't you order the body to be thrown into the lake?

Why is that?

Fernando already confessed.

All we need to do is plant the body,

make sure someone finds it, and that makes it official.

Your stepbrother, the drug addict,

said he stabbed your father.

How will you explain that he was also shot in the face three times?

Where'd he get the gun?

And the most obvious thing is,

if it is Claudio's body,

wouldn't it be in a state of decomposition?

This is fucked, holy shit.

I can't believe I'm thinking all these things about my dad

when I don't even know if he's dead or alive.

Stop bullshitting me, Octavio.

I'm not bullshitting.

From the first day Claudio disappeared,

you wanted him to be dead.

I'm here to make sure once you're paid, you leave my family alone.

You've always been up to your neck in shit.

First, as a hypocrite,

and now you want to play nice as long as it suits you.

If he's still alive,

it's best he doesn't show up someday.

Don't you think?

I guess so.

Now, all we have to do is convince people the body is your father's.

And I think I know who can help us.

Who?

I wanted you to hear it from me and not the media.

My people confirmed this information, Helena, and…

it seems like Claudio was located in one of Magic's safe houses.

And?

We carried out a search and rescue,

and so…

So what? Where is my father?

Is he all right?

No, Livia.

I'm sorry, but Dad was killed.

What?

No!

No!

I did what I could, Helena.

I hope there are no…

hard feelings between us.

What would I do with those?

I'm very sorry.

Enough of that, Pablo.

The Attorney General's Office found a safe house

where millionaire Claudio Martínez was being held.

It was here that a rescue mission took place

in search of hotel magnate, Claudio Martínez.

Unfortunately, when the team eventually broke in,

they found the body to be unresponsive.

Currently, we are awaiting statements from the DA, Pablo Morales.

We send our deepest condolences to his friends and loved ones.

Especially to his widow, Helena Rivas,

and his children Octavio and Livia Martínez Salcedo.

Why don't you go hang out with the others?

Fer.

Fer.

Take me to see him.

Why?

I want to say goodbye to my father.

No, Livia, you don't want that.

-He's unrecognizable. -If you don't take me, I'm still going.

-He's at the attorney general's office? -Wait. Hold on a second.

-No. -Okay, okay.

Just give me a few hours.

You knew he'd been kidnapped?

Yeah, but I didn't know that they were going to kill the prick.

Sometimes the things that happen are what we fear the most.

It's amazing how cruel we can be.

What exactly are you trying to say?

I think there's something you and I should talk about.

First of all, let me apologize.

I don't want to start off on the wrong foot.

I feel like it's my instinct to try and protect you,

to keep you shielded, and…

and it pushes you away from me.

The things I can promise are,

I won't stop caring for you,

and I won't stop worrying about your relationship with Helena.

How did I know that was coming?

Have you talked to her recently?

Mm, no. I haven't reached out, and she hasn't tried calling me.

Do you love her?

What do you want to know that for?

Because I want to understand.

I want to know why you keep insisting that she's innocent.

Yes.

I love her.

And I want to believe with all my soul that she didn't do this.

Is he dead?

He is.

A part of me is relieved, but…

I don't know, another part is disappointed.

Disappointed why?

-For not doing it myself, protecting you. -Fer.

I hope he suffered.

Apparently, he did suffer.

Octavio said the body was so disfigured, they barely recognized it.

Karma does exist.

What's wrong? Aren't you happy?

We can finally go back to the way it was.

Yes.

It feels good to be free of him finally.

Come here.

Livia.

Octavio told me that you could take me to the morgue.

-It's best to keep the memory intact. -Thanks, but I'm not asking for advice.

I want to see my father.

I deserve to see the body, however it looks.

Livia, I'm sorry but I'm afraid it just won't be possible.

Because of the state your father's body was in,

the coroner who did the autopsy had to order a cremation.

What?

Without our consent?

You can't order a cremation without authorization.

You need family consent. What did you do?

-Octavio will explain it. Talk to him. -Octavio?

Believe me, I'm not happy that Claudio is dead.

In fact, it hurts very much.

Hurts you? But why?

Because, many years ago, we were very close.

We were partners and had a lot of aligned interests.

And Claudio, when he wanted to be, could be quite charming.

And Helena…

What can I say?

Helena is Helena.

She's brilliant and complex.

Fedra, you didn't think to tell me that

you guys were such good friends when we were at that restaurant?

All this time, you were trying to convince me to stay away from Helena.

Iván, all of us have skeletons that we hide away in closets,

and I'm no exception.

You asked that I come clean with you.

You have to tell me the truth.

You asked me if I had ever been to one of their parties.

And I told you no.

Well, I lied.

Iván, you deserve to know the truth about Helena Rivas.

I never believed the whole kidnapping story, Diana.

The whole board had doubts.

We should've released the resources for his ransom when we had the chance.

What can I say?

I have no idea what happens now.

I'm very sorry, Helena.

The loss of Claudio must be a terrible shock to you.

How would you know?

-What? -Claudio wasn't worth that much to you.

What are you saying? This company was Claudio's soul.

You're saying his soul wasn't worth 25 million dollars?

You know perfectly well that Claudio was like my brother.

I don't want to hear how sad you are, you fucking hypocrite.

All right, the fact is,

we need you to loosen the locks on my father's private accounts.

Today.

Well, we'll all have to sit privately and discuss this.

What next?

Can we get started? Or no?

That means you, Hugo.

Every time I bought from a dealer,

I'd get high and think to myself,

"It's all because of one man."

"He did this to me."

I really thought that when he died, all my problems would just go away,

that life would go back to the way it was.

But I found out today that he was killed.

And I'm not relieved. Not one bit.

Nothing's different.

I still crave drugs like I used to.

The problem is that the one who started this is no longer here.

I have to take all the blame.

Just me.

Why didn't you tell me that they cremated Dad's body?

It was fucking Helena and… and that asshole Pablo, right?

No, they didn't do it. I was the one who authorized the cremation.

I'm sorry, but why--

I knew you would never have agreed to it, so forgive me.

Okay? You didn't see him, Livia.

He was unrecognizable.

I wanted to… see him one last time--

You wouldn't be able to stand it.

For as long as I live, I will never forget that image.

You had no right.

The decision wasn't up to you.

Do you remember when they pulled Mom's body out of the lake?

I didn't want you to go through that, to be left with that image.

I wanted to protect you, so forgive me.

-No, you had no right to… -Forgive me.

It wasn't your choice. It wasn't up to you, Octavio.

You had no right to do that.

I know.

Claudio?

You know what I loved most about you?

That you cared.

You were so loyal.

Whatever happened to that loyalty?

You're right, I did care.

But then you threatened me and Fernando.

We're all so much better off without you around.

Well, you finally got your revenge.

Come on, let's be honest, we both know I deserved it.

And now, we're free.

No!

No, no, no, no, no, Helena.

You will never be free of me.

Remember, if I fall, you're joining me.

If I burn in hell, I'm taking you along.

Second reading.

"The gift of God far outweighs the crime."

"And death reigns from Adam to Moses."

Last night I saw you searching the Valle house like crazy,

and I heard you clearly say the word "videos."

I need to understand what's going on. This is serious.

You're desperate because you're afraid Claudio will use those videos against you.

Or maybe even worse, they'll fall into the hands of his captors.

"Even over those who did not sin

as Adam sinned when he disobeyed the direct command of God."

-Stop bullshitting me, Octavio. -I'm not bullshitting.

From the first day Claudio disappeared,

you wanted him to be dead.

"From the first day, Adam was a figure of Christ."

Come on, a little more.

There you go.

Keep on going, sweetie.

My love, you're doing so well.

-Aw, look how pretty. -Here, look at this.

"If by the crime of one man

we were all punished with death,

then, by the gift of one man, Jesus Christ,

shall we share in the absolute grace, and abundance of the life,

of our eternal God."

This whiskey was his favorite.

At the ceremony, I was thinking…

of that video, do you remember?

Where you were teaching me to walk. Hm.

Of course, we just saw it. You were, like, a baby.

Maybe it's because we saw it recently, but…

I feel like it's so clear.

Anyway, I don't know.

Do you know what I remember the most?

How you

used to climb into the crib to play with me.

Yeah, I was very skilled back then.

To me, it felt like Mount Everest.

I remember thinking I had a superpower for making you laugh like that.

Well, it's because you were funny.

And cute.

And yet, look how you turned out.

Don't take this too personally, but…

going on that raid is so unlike you.

You're the most cowardly person I know.

You're right, you know.

I don't believe it myself.

When I…

When I saw those kidnappers,

when I saw the blood and the bullets, I…

I wanted to rescue Dad.

So he could say,

"Thank you, Octavio, I owe you everything."

But, at the same time, I was angry. He did owe all of us an explanation.

I loved him.

Well, I love him.

But I also hate him, you want to know why?

Because I'm exactly like he is.

Just an eco-friendly version.

Hm.

Relax, it's just me. Don't panic.

Antonio, what are you doing?

We're not kids anymore, playing games in my room.

You will never be a game to me, Livia.

Antonio…

-I'm in mourning. -I wanted to comfort you at the funeral.

But as usual, I had to keep my distance.

I just buried my father.

I don't want to fuck you.

They say that sex is the opposite of death.

Because that's when you feel the most alive.

-That's how I want you to feel with me. -Oh, yeah?

-Let me fuck you. -That's enough.

Antonio, wait.

Let's go to Durango.

What's in Durango?

Nothing.

That's the beauty of Durango.

No. There's no way I'm going to Durango with you, silly.

There's nothing to be afraid of.

I mean, your dad is gone now.

It's not fear, Antonio.

Then what is it?

I've saved some cash.

We could literally start over again.

We could follow through on the plans we had before you left for Tulum.

It all sounds good.

But I'm not ready to leave yet.

It's time I take charge of what I've been avoiding my whole life.

I am a part of this family.

It's just me and Octavio,

and I'm not ready to leave him alone.

I owe it to my mom.

You don't owe anyone anything.

Including you, sweetie.

Hey…

What's wrong?

Claudio's dead.

You're free now.

You finally got what you wanted,

so please get the fuck out of here.

What's happening?

I can't believe I was so naive and just fell for it.

I even fell in love with you.

I would've done anything for us, for you, as long as we were doing it together.

But you're not a good person.

Why are you saying this?

I know about your stupid fucking parties.

The ones that you would host with Claudio to seduce businessmen, politicians,

whoever went into that place.

But the fact that you would record these orgies and use them for extortion…

I asked if you'd ever done anything like this.

And you said no.

-Who told you about the parties? -Helena.

-Who told you about the parties? -It's not important.

-You want the truth? -I know the truth.

You only think you do.

If you want to know so badly, then let me tell you.

All you have to do is listen.

You continue to hog all the air waves, Claudio.

You're all over social media, all the mainstream news.

Wow.

Everyone thinks you're dead.

But you know what?

No one bothered to investigate if the body was really you.

Even your family would rather have you dead than alive, motherfucker.

You have no one.

No one will mourn a piece of shit like you.

Especially Helena.

Because, um,

the "journalist" that you wanted to fuck

turns out to be her lover.

Iván Díaz.

-Iván Díaz. -You son of a bitch.

You were like a brother, my right hand.

This is how I like to see you, asshole.

You always thought that you were the master of the whole world.

Now look at you.

Covered in shit, unable to speak.

Only because you're keeping me drugged.

And this is just the beginning.

This is what this fucking errand boy is capable of, you see?

I won't stop fighting for what I love.

For Livia.
