Original subtitles

Never in my right mind would I ever sleep with you.

You're Armando's best friend!

And he's your fiancé. So drop the holier than thou act,

'cause you're the one disrespecting him.

Oh, yeah? You're an idiot!

Let go. Let me go!

PREVIOUSLY

This time I wasn't drunk.

I'm now certain I'd never choose you.

Never.

Armando!

He's sneaking...

into the toad's room.

I don't know what it is about you,

but I can't stop thinking about you.

Fabi, I'd love it if you were here.

Tomorrow is going to be a very, very, very long day.

Has Armando's assistant given you any trouble?

No, but strange things are happening in this house.

Paranormal occurrences.

Like what?

That hairy beast

brings about the paranormal activity.

Have you talked with Ines?

No.

Why? Did something happen?

No, no. No reason.

I... was just asking.

Hey... do you love me?

Do you miss, worship, adore, and want me?

Do you miss me like you would the air you breathe?

Of course I miss you.

-Oh, Fabi! -I can't live without you.

You're so corny. You say the sweetest things.

I have to go now, babe.

Tomorrow will be... a terrible day.

Kisses.

Did the hag say anything?

No, she didn't.

I'm worried she'll tell Hugo

she found us half naked when he comes back.

Relax.

I'll have her eating out of the palm of my hand by then.

I don't know how long I've had this tea for,

but you should have some. It'll calm you down.

Charly, we were caught.

Efrain-sufferable is going to take my kids away from me.

They know everything.

Efrain only saw us dancing.

He imagined everything else.

He's awfully close to the truth, though.

Look, Sofi,

you and I have only made love

once.

and it happened after Efrain got involved with Jenny.

Technically speaking, you didn't cheat on him

and we didn't fool them. With respect to everything else,

I think we've been very good given the situation.

Yes, but that sleazy tramp

will turn Efrain-sufferable even more against me,

they'll try to take the boys.

I know Efrain too well.

He'd never take charge of raising the boys.

Much less Jenny.

You have nothing to worry about.

Charly, come on!

I'm a mother.

I can't risk giving them

a chance to take my boys away. Not even for a second, no!

Much less

allow them...

to realize...

there's something between us.

What is it?

This!

The desire...

This nice thing we have.

-Love? -No.

No, I...

I can't call it that for now.

I'm not a free woman, I...

I need to...

I have to keep my children safe,

close to me.

Until that happens...

I don't know. Charly, I can't stay here.

I need to find another place to live and...

I'm sorry, but try to understand.

I understand.

We'll start looking for a new place

for you to move tomorrow.

No, no. It can't be.

Sofia wouldn't mess with her friend.

They're friends!

We're partners.

Sofia and Charly are like siblings.

How can they be like siblings? Lovebug,

wake up!

I saw them hold each other very close on the dance floor.

He looked very happy to see her, if you know what I mean.

-Watch it. -It's true, Lovebug.

Have you ever seen them hold each other so close?

-Yes! -See?

When Mercedes was alive,

the four of us would go out.

They were always each other's dance partners.

They even entered dance competitions and they'd win.

No, they're just the kind of people who like that nonsense.

That's what I'm trying to tell you, but you refuse to see it.

You don't get it. I'm very smart, but you're not following me.

Those two

have been cheating for a long time.

Of course! That's why you stopped loving her.

-What do you mean? -Yes, you stopped loving her

because you knew that fatso you kept for a wife

was cheating on you with your ex-best friend.

-Yes. -You think so?

No, I don't think so. I'm sure of it.

I'm so sure, that I can tell you were so in denial

that you believed that fatso would never cheat on you

with your best friend, but she did.

Although...

that's not the worst part, Lovebug.

-No? -No.

No, there's something much worse,

Lovebug, but...

-I hate telling you this. -Go ahead, tell me.

Imagine one of your sons,

wasn't yours...

-and is Charly's. -No, no!

Shut up! Don't you dare say that again!

-Charly's sons. -No, no!

They're my sons! They're mine!

Sofia would never cheat on me!

-No! -Okay.

Think whatever you want. Just remember that...

there's no smoke without fire.

Who wants some pancakes?

Jonathan! Jonathan loves pancakes!

No, don't thank me.

Thank Enrique.

-He makes the tastiest breakfasts. -Thank you!

Don't mention it. My pleasure.

Do you like the food, champs? Bacon, eggs, cereal.

-Don't fight. -It's mine.

Kidding!

Hi, boys!

How are you?

You're having your favorites. Did you say thank you?

-Did you wash your hands? -Yes.

-Did you behave? -Yes.

Chofis, is everything okay?

-Join me in the kitchen. -Yes.

Enjoy it, sweetie.

Say thank you, say thank you!

No, let's make an egg sandwich.

Sofi, what happened?

Last night was the worst night of my life!

Efrain saw us

at the club and all hell broke loose.

-Oh boy. -You have no idea.

He threatened to take my boys away,

and I swear that'll only happen over my dead body.

I'm glad I find you here, traitor.

You're going to tell me what you're up to with my woman.

Jenny? Nothing.

I'm talking about Sofia, you clown.

Get serious or I'll rearrange your face.

You've never beat me in a fight,

so don't act all tough 'cause it doesn't suit you.

Plus, I don't want to hurt you.

Just tell me what's going on between you and my wife.

A close friendship of over 20 years.

-Are you lovers? -No.

I don't believe you.

You're trying to fool me, aren't you?

Look, you left a wonderful woman

for a girl with nothing but air between her ears.

You're not very smart, but you made your choice.

How long have you and Sofia been together?

Again with that?

Are my children... mine?

What are you saying, you idiot?

Are you serious?

It's my fault, if I hadn't egged you on

to go out with Charly, none of this would've happened.

No, no, no. Forget that.

I went out with Charly because I like Charly.

But my boys come before Charly and everything else.

Oh, I'm so mad.

Why is Efrain still making your life hell?

He's no longer your husband.

Good thing you're getting divorced soon.

You have no idea how much I'm looking forward to that day.

In the mean time, I have to leave Charly's.

My salary will only be enough to afford a low-rate hotel,

but I don't care. I don't care!

You're not going to put your sons through any hardships.

-Enrique! -Shut up! Don't say anything.

Honey, come here!

Please don't say anything. I don't want him to know.

Don't say a thing...

-Hi, sweetie. -What is it?

Hey, Sofi and the boys don't have a place to stay.

-Bertha, shut it! -You don't?

-You have our house. -It's not true.

What are friends for?

I love you, cutie.

You're the best. Isn't my hubby the best?

-It's okay. -I'm so embarrassed.

Why? It's fine.

-No, I swear that... -Don't cry.

Don't cry. You know I'm a compulsive crier.

Don't cry. You'll make me cry too.

-I'll go tell the boys you're staying. -But...

He's the best man in the world.

He is, isn't he?

That's why I have to take good care of him and myself.

I can't let him get away.

Of course the boys are yours! How can you doubt it?

Junior is your spitting image

and Jonathan is as quiet as your deaf-mute brother.

How can you think that of Sofia? She's a lady!

And she always respected you while you were together.

You said it. While we were together.

And now that we aren't?

You can't expect her to become a shut-in after the divorce.

That'd be the height of unfairness.

You're having your fun while she cries over you.

Is that what you want?

Honestly, she can do whatever she wants with her life,

so long as she doesn't set a bad example for the boys.

You two weren't role models last night.

You have to admit you were holding each other very close.

Last night we were cracking jokes and having fun.

Can't we do that?

You know Sofia and me love to dance.

I asked her out because she's been very depressed lately.

Well, she didn't look all that depressed last night.

Oh, and you're annoyed because she's trying to move on.

Well, you moved your lover into her house,

so don't try to flip things on her now.

You, and only you, are the villain here, you idiot.

-Stop insulting me, will you? -No, I won't.

You're such an idiot

that you even doubt you're the boys' father.

Who put that brilliant idea in your head, your girlfriend?

If you don't want Sofia to lose what little respect

she has for you, keep your doubts to yourself.

That looks good.

Are you okay?

Do you like the fabric? It's very nice.

That one.

It's very, very, very beautiful.

She looks amazing!

We got through the shoot so quickly and without a hitch.

It just flowed.

-Guess what. -What?

I think we can move up the launch.

Mr. Thompson wants to make the launch on an important date.

-That's a good idea. -Yeah, it could happen.

Yes, yes!

That way, we'd get to spend

a special day together.

Wouldn't you like to spend the 4th of July with me?

No! No, no.

Sorry, what I mean to say is that we need to keep a cool head

when it comes to business.

Always.

I have to admit that I like your answer.

I'll go check what dates are available in New York

-and I'll be right back. -Okay.

Is there anything I can do for you, Hugo?

There is, now that you mention it.

I'd like to know why you were in Beatriz's room last night.

You can't deny you went into Beatriz's room last night.

Armie, don't insult my intelligence or your elegance.

Are you asking for Marcela or yourself?

If you're watching me day and night,

I imagine you're asking for Marcela.

Let's see here.

Does this mean that the truth depends on who's asking?

No, no.

The truth depends on whether you choose to believe it or not.

Goodness, you keep beating around a very small bush.

That breeds a lack of trust.

Well, I can't live with a lack of trust,

so I have no choice but to tell you the truth.

Betty and I...

have been secretly dating

and we have a great relationship.

I hate it when you're like this!

-See? -You're unbearable!

You wanted a juicy scoop? There you have it.

Had I told you Betty's working on a proposal for Thompson,

you wouldn't have believed me. There you have it.

It all depends on whether you choose to believe the truth or not.

Well, I'll tell you two things, two.

One, you're immature.

You're a boy, a child, a punk.

Two, I only had one thing to tell you.

If you want to help, help with this new project.

I'd like to make Thompson another offer,

so we can close a deal before we leave.

I put up with your assistant's howls for three hours

on the flight over,

so please ship...

her back home.

Mauro!

What's wrong? What's the matter?

Marcela!

You look terrible!

What happened to you?

Did someone break in and steal your dignity?

No, Patricia. I'm not in the mood.

I don't feel well. I'm sick.

Well, if you're sick,

all the more reason to have someone look after you.

Should I call a nurse?

No, thank you.

I just need to rest and sleep.

That's all.

What's wrong, Marce?

Yesterday you were acting like bridezilla

and now you're the bitter aunt no one wants at the wedding.

Don't bring up the wedding. Let's not talk about it.

What did Armando do now?

Don't tell me.

He invited that model to the wedding

and asked her to be a witness.

Sounds like something Armando would do.

I called off the wedding.

You did what?

Marcela!

I'm going to choke.

I need something to help wash the cookie down.

Let's see, Marcela.

What do you mean you called off the wedding?

I'm going to lose it! Marcela, I'm going to die.

I can't breathe! How could you do that?

Don't. Let's breathe.

Calm down. What can we do?

We can think about...

I know.

You look disheveled, so I'll take a picture with my phone

and we'll say you're suffering from dementia,

that you lost it, or something.

Don't be ridiculous. No. No, I just need

to rest and sleep.

I don't want to see anyone. In fact,

I'll let you know when I'm feeling better, okay?

Close the door on your way out

and tell the doorman to not let anyone in.

Marce! Why won't you ever think of me?

You never do.

I thought I'd get to attend the wedding,

that you'd let me catch the bouquet,

and that I'd stop being a wretched divorcee.

-Bye! -Why are you doing this to me?

-Bye, Patricia. -Please think this through.

I can still hear you. Bye.

I'll be quiet now. I'm leaving.

What you're doing is wrong.

Bye, Marce.

Wow, that's amazing!

These pictures will be perfect.

Sometime next week we'll have the first adverts

that I'll be using in my stores.

We need a few days to get the clothes with the appliqués.

I think we'll have the clothes made in Mexico by Friday.

I like to have everything ready ahead of time.

Armando,

I've heard V&M

isn't doing so well financially,

that its liabilities have increased.

Is that true?

I'm asking because we're partners.

I need you to tell me.

-I need you to be honest with me. -Yes, yes.

Yes, we've made some

necessary investments to promote our new collections,

but we've done so without endangering V&M.

V&M is just as stable as when my father was in charge.

You have nothing to worry about.

Those are just rumors. Everything's great.

All right.

What are you doing here, Ricardo?

What do you mean? I came to see Marcela.

Armando asked me to keep an eye on her.

She was weird at work today, so here I am.

-What're you doing here? -I'm her friend

and I came to see her. You're wasting your time.

Marce doesn't want to see anyone.

Why? Did something happen?

Marcela did the worst thing

any engaged woman can do.

What?

Patricia, come on. What do mean?

What? She cheated on Armando?

Of course not! What are you talking about?

Marcela would never cheat. She only has eyes for Armando.

-No way. -Exactly.

So what did she do that has her so down?

I shouldn't tell you.

We're friends, we trust each other.

You can tell me.

No, I don't trust you, and we're not friends.

-You can still tell me. -Fine!

I'll tell you.

Marcela called off the wedding.

Bro, what took you so long to get back to me?

I didn't take that long. What happened?

What happened? I was right! Something weird is going on!

What are you talking about?

Patricia just told me Marcela called off the wedding.

-What? -Yes, you heard right.

That's why Catalina asked me so many questions yesterday.

Well, I'm not surprised.

Marcela kept her word.

She said that if I came to Miami,

she'd call off the wedding.

So why did you leave? Are you crazy?

You shouldn't have! Do you know what this means?

Listen, without that wedding, you'll lose V&M forever.

You should've told me what was going on!

I didn't think Marcela would call off the wedding.

You didn't think?

What's the matter with you?

There's nothing more fearless than a heartbroken woman.

Yes, but Marcela was always so excited about the wedding.

I thought she was just picking a fight

or trying to blackmail me.

Well, you were wrong!

And now Daniel will use this to turn her against you.

And given everything she knows, we're goners!

Ricardo, let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Besides, I actually think

this is a weight off my shoulders.

Of course it is!

No sane man wants to get married,

but that doesn't mean he won't.

Especially given what's at stake.

Bro, I ran into Mata yesterday.

He sounded like he knew the truth

about V&M's financial situation.

What if those two are working together against us?

You're exaggerating. Calm down.

I'll find a way to fix this

when I get back to the office tomorrow.

Armando, you don't get it.

Today, Marcela will turn to her brother in search of comfort.

By tomorrow morning Daniel will have an...

an entire law firm auditing the company.

And he'll also have

your handsome head on a silver platter.

Bro, you're coming back today.

Today! Understood?

Today! You can't wait anymore.

Marce called off the wedding.

She just told me so herself. I get it, too.

I can't judge her.

She's been through so much with Armand.

Imagine she found

a dead woman's poem in his things.

What do you mean by a dead woman?

A poem by... what do you call women who write poems? "Poetresses?"

"Poeter"?

Oh, Patricia.

What are they called?

Doesn't matter. The point is that the woman

is dead! I mean...

Marce found the poem in his desk.

Okay, so Armando has a lover.

Who is she? Someone in particular?

I saw some pictures on a website.

Marce also thinks he has a lover and that she's someone special,

different and that that's why she's stealing him away.

Do you know who it is?

Yes... and no.

I'll explain.

All right, I'll tell you.

Marce went through Armando's phone

and in it she found a picture of a woman.

Guess who it was.

-Who was it? -Guess.

-I don't know who it could be. -Guess!

Fiorella Ferrara!

She's going to be the face of V&M's new campaign.

Armando's working on a campaign?

With Mr. Thompson.

That's the least of it.

What's really wrong is that there's a photo shoot

going on in Miami this weekend and Armand is already there.

He's alone... with Fiorella.

He didn't take Marcela with him.

Wouldn't you agree that's more than enough reason

to call off their engagement?

Where's my jam?

I think it's best if I return to New York today.

Does it have anything to do with Marcela?

Yes, but I don't want to discuss it now, and...

and especially not here.

All right, I'll go upstairs to pack my bags.

No, you don't have to go back.

You can stay until Monday.

If you leave, I'm coming with you.

There's nothing for me to do here.

Without you, I don't belong in this world.

Marcela.

What are you doing here?

-Are you okay? -No!

Back to reality.

That's right, Betty.

We're back to reality.

See you at the office tomorrow, Mr. Armando.

Yes.

Betty, wait.

Are you okay?

You didn't say a word during the flight.

Yes, I'm fine. It's just that

it hurts to have to come back and...

I know that everything that happened

happened because we were in Miami,

but there's so much for us to do here

and I don't want to hurt anyone.

Do you mean Marcela?

This incredible trip helped me open my eyes,

and realize that no matter how much I learn about fashion

or how much I work in the industry,

I'll never be a part of it.

And what's so wrong about that?

Well, I don't feel...

Betty, I think there's something you don't understand.

I'm with you because you're unique.

And yes, you're right,

the world of fashion is very superficial

and... and there aren't

a lot of people like you.

Like me? A little odd bug?

Yes. Yes, my little odd bug.

My Betty.

Right... Mr. Armando.

We did a great job.

Thank you very much.

This was the best trip of my life.

I'll never forget it.

Me neither.

And you believed that traitor, didn't you?

He's a traitor, Lovebug!

Of course I believed him.

We spoke man-to-man.

-He promised he hadn't done it. -Of course.

He swore he hadn't slept with Sofia.

Of course he would, Lovebug!

He's protecting her!

Why would Charly protect Sofia?

He's protecting the reputation

of the patron saint of saggy old women.

That's what it is.

Of course he wants her to continue...

coming across as smart,

as the lady of the house, the one who never makes mistakes,

and he wants me to continue being

a home wrecker and the maleficent villain.

Of course.

Don't you see that, Lovebug?

She just wants to destroy us.

Listen, if I were you,

I'd have the boys undergo a V&M test.

What?

DNA.

Yes, the one where they draw blood

-to make sure he's yours. -Yeah, yeah.

Of course! One of them,

the one who looks just like the other,

has Charly's beady little rat eyes.

That's enough!

We've been through this before

and I told you to leave the boys out of it.

Junior is my spitting image, Lovebug!

He's a clone of me, my Mini- Me.

-Oh, please! -Yes, please!

Jonathan is good looking like his mother...

-Well, not like this mother. -No.

He looks like my brother.

-The deaf-mute. -Exactly.

My sons are mine.

Please, don't bring this up again.

Okay. Listen, I, Jenny Wendy,

will show you those two are lying to you.

You'll see.

Cheers, Lovebug.

Forgive me for bothering, Sofia.

but Junior left this at the house and I got worried.

What if he has an asthma attack? What then?

Oh.

Really?

Well, I have to admit,

this was the best excuse I could find

so I could come see you.

Well...

I'm glad you returned it

because if he had an asthma attack,

it'd be dangerous for him not to have it.

Charly...

you're the best man I know.

You are...

the perfect man.

But I'm not the perfect man for you.

No... No, you are!

But...

right now,

we can't.

I know, especially after my latest talk with Efrain.

What happened? Did you two argue?

No, but I told him there's nothing going on between us.

I shamelessly lied to him. I had no choice.

Thank you, I...

really appreciate it because I know you don't like to lie, but...

Right now, my sons are my priority.

Yes, I know, and if it were up to me,

I would've yelled at him for being an idiot and leaving you.

You're supposed to spend a lifetime with a woman like you.

I just want that damn divorce to be finalized

so I can know what's going to happen between us.

I'm done spending my nights alone...

after spending a night with you.

I'm going to miss you, sweetheart.

Don't call me.

Don't look for me.

Don't come around.

I'll look for you and I'll call you.

I'll keep my phone close.

-You came back quickly. -Yes.

I thought you were staying longer.

Why was I going to stay when everything had been tended to?

It was pointless.

You could've stayed, go sightseeing.

Mr. Armando was there with his fiancée, right?

Yes, but they had important things

to do here, so we all came back.

Are they having trouble?

No, no. Guess what!

I'm very happy because I brought you...

some magnets for the fridge.

Where are they?

The fact that you focused on work and didn't slack

says a lot about you.

It's very dangerous for a company

to send people on trips.

They take advantage.

Yes, I understand, but I wouldn't.

Especially bosses.

Sometimes they take their lovers with them...

as if they were going on vacation!

-Oh, my! -I'm sorry, Dad!

-Oh, my! My leg! -I'm sorry!

Look, I found them!

Yeah, but they're very heavy.

I even got one for Nico.

You've reached Marcela Valencia. You know what to do.

Marcela, this is the fifth message I've left you,

and you don't answer. We need to talk.

Please, call me back.

Some of her clothes are missing.

Where could she be?

I told you it was a good idea to come to the Hamptons.

I intended to come here with Armando...

this weekend.

Who would've thought I'd end up here with you?

This was our happy place when we were younger, remember?

Yes, before our parents died.

You wanted to be a successful businessman,

and look at you now.

You had other dreams.

You dreamed of traveling the world.

You didn't want to be cooped up in an office.

Maria Lucia was the one who ended up traveling the world,

and I ended up cooped up in an office.

Things are so different.

They're different because you gave up,

because you stopped pursuing your dreams

to go after Armando's.

Is that what love is to you?

Dani, not today. Not today.

I know you love him, but I'm not sure he loves you.

Have you ever been in love?

Do you know what it's like

to give your whole life over for someone else?

You don't know.

That's why you don't understand.

Do you think Armando deserves your tears?

He hasn't changed.

He's still the same golden boy

who goes through life thinking he deserves it all.

Marcela...

you deserve to be happy.

Smile like you used to.

We're adults now.

You don't smile anymore either.

Take some time...

and think about it.

I want you to reevaluate your life.

Why don't you leave V&M?

You've reached Marcela Valencia. You know what to do.

-Is her phone still off? -Yes.

She's not answering. She's probably out of town.

I told you, didn't I?

Yes, I told you this was very serious,

but you refused to believe me. You were happy going to Miami.

All right, enough. Let's calm down.

We're jumping to conclusions.

I know Marcela's explosive, but she wouldn't leave me.

She wants to get married.

-Oh, yeah? -Yeah.

Well, your confidence could be your undoing, Armando.

Don't think you know Marcela. She could surprise you.

You don't know her well.

What are you talking about? What do you mean?

I'm referring to the current situation we're going through.

Women like her have their limits.

When you cross that line,

they react without considering the consequences.

Besides, there's also Mata's warning.

Daniel must be up to something.

No, Marcela would never betray me.

She knows very well the precarious situation

V&M finds itself in.

Well, I just hope Marcela won't tell Daniel anything.

Nothing could help us then. Not even Betty.

No, I can't leave V&M, especially not now.

You've always said I'm...

the voice of the...

Valencias there.

Yes, I know.

I asked too much of you and didn't think of your needs.

Here. It's for you.

What is it?

I had my lawyers draw it up

when I saw the pictures of Armando online.

The ones that claimed he had been unfaithful.

I can't focus on this now.

I can't focus enough to talk business.

Don't take advantage of my situation.

You told me we were coming here so I could clear my mind.

That's right.

Read it... and tell me what you think.

This could be the key to set you free.

Take control of your life again, Marcela.

Girls,

I just got an email from my attorney Karen Curvis.

She says the date has been set for the divorce trial.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Code Broken Arrow! I have important information!

Mr. Daniel Valencia just got here.

-No way! -Yes!

Out of my way!

Inesita has always had a copy of the key to the house.

I might need her to get a book, money or something else.

Besides, Fabi,

you refuse to water my plants.

I don't like it.

I feel uneasy knowing someone else has a key to our house.

Don't be so paranoid.

Inesita isn't planning on stealing our TV.

Well, I have to be very honest with you.

Inesita takes liberties she shouldn't be taking.

She's the best.

Let me tell you that she's been with me in good times

and especially bad times.

It's one thing for you two to be close

and another for her to think she's your mother.

It's not healthy, Hugo.

Listen, we're both psychopaths,

but only a little bit.

Don't you realize Inesita is coming before me?

It's more important for her to have a set of keys,

than for me to feel comfortable in my own home. Sorry!

You're so paranoid.

This isn't a Hitchcock movie.

Next you'll say you're afraid of birds.

Mariana, good thing you're here.

Let's get this over with quickly.

Good morning, Mr. Daniel.

Yes, I'm leaving Ms. Marcela some pictures for the website.

Could you ask her when she's in?

I've been calling and texting her, but no answer.

Not really, either way, it's not your concern anymore.

V&M is no longer needs your services.

What?

Yes, so stop by HR so we can speed this up.

Oh, and I need you to empty out your desk quickly.

-You may leave. -Daniel,

-what are you doing here? -Where's Marcela?

Why are you in her office?

This is no longer her office.

My sister quit and left me her position.

From now on, I'll be taking over for her.
