A NETFLIX SERIES

Here, where neither the sun nor the moon shine.

Here, in our house, Sofía.

Follow me to the kingdom, sweetheart.

Tell me what to do, Mom.

Open the final veil… veil…

Give me a soul of blood… blood…

Did that hurt?

Okay. Don't worry. I'm almost done.

You're not real. You're not real!

You're not real! You're not real!

No!

You're a lie!

-Lieutenant. -Let go of me!

This is a lie!

You're not real!

No! No!

Let go of me! No!

Civil Guard.

We're getting you out of here. What's your name?

They call me Blanca.

But I am nothing.

Only the light vessel.

You went into the mine, and only you came out alive.

How do you explain that?

I am the one who died.

So, what happened down there?

Knowledge is reserved for one man in a thousand men.

Two in two thousand men.

Are you one of them?

Try me, Blanca.

Those who live in oblivion will be gone along with it.

Those who found knowledge will be eternal.

Which side are you on?

You are death! Don't you touch me again!

This is bullshit, and you know it!

-You're all a fucking joke! -Don't come close.

-How long have you been in the cult? -Don't!

-Did you organize the ritual in the mine? -Stay away!

Answer me!

Don't come close!

They made her believe she was a chosen one, didn't they?

That woman…

If I tell you that for a moment, I believed her mystical crap,

you would call me a fool, right?

Those bags under your eyes are no longer attractive, Guillén.

-You need to get some rest. -Mm.

Let others finish the paperwork.

-It's all up to the judges now. -No. Everything revolves around Blanca.

And so Pablo and Elena might not even have been the instigators.

What are you looking for?

Someone among those lunatics is capable of manipulating people into…

killing themselves

or others.

I never saw that woman.

Are you sure about that? What if she was in the mine the day you went in?

What did she do to me? Cast a spell?

Turned into a rat and split without anyone realizing?

Well, it didn't sound as stupid in my head.

Do you want to help me?

Then be my friend.

And come see me now and again.

Sofía.

Want me to give them to you?

Sofía.

Sofía, plea--

You're taking those pills, willingly or not.

No, leave her. We can have them inject her, right?

You don't fool me with that stupid face. I know you. You're laughing at us.

-Eva. -So open your mouth.

-Open your fucking mouth! -Eva! Let her go! You'll hurt her!

-Sofía, open your fucking mouth! -Eva, you're hurting her!

Open your mouth!

-Open it! -Eva, please! Stop! You're hurting her!

That's enough! Eva!

Are you okay?

She fell asleep.

-Eva-- -I know. Save it.

I know I was too rough. It won't happen again.

I can't stand seeing her

as if she's okay with dying.

To her, right now, we are the bad ones. You have to understand that.

We're the ones who won't let her go to the kingdom.

What's so great about it?

Father Ezcaray said there wasn't anything there.

No pain, no passion. Nothing. Like being in a coma.

You're taking on too much responsibility, Eva.

Don't forget I'm with you. And Guillén.

I just miss her.

I miss it when we used to fight because that chameleon stinks so bad.

Or because she keeps buying white chocolate.

Who even likes white chocolate?

You know…

you'll fight over white chocolate again.

You'll see.

I'm scared.

She can't end up like Candela did.

Oh.

She isn't speaking.

It's not the first time this has happened to her. I've checked her file.

Six years ago, Candela spent three months in a hospital in Córdoba.

You told everyone in town that Candela had pneumonia.

Why would it be anybody's business why my wife was admitted?

Okay.

You might be aware that

Father Ezcaray kept several notebooks, where he recorded things.

Sometimes personal. Other things to do with the cult.

Someone from town had been visiting him regularly for 15 years,

to share details with him about it.

Ezcaray never wrote the name down.

But he did write down that this person

had been admitted for pneumonia six years prior.

I missed that detail. I would never have connected it back to Candela.

But I gave those notebooks to Estrella, the psychologist.

And she did remember that pneumonia.

That just doesn't make any sense.

Candela, uh…

What would she know about those crazies?

My mother never told me anything about the cult. She's too self-righteous.

Mar.

She belonged to it.

During the examination, the doctor found the scar of the symbol.

That's from an accident she had when she was young.

Candela has anxiety issues.

She trusted Father Ezcaray.

That's her problem. Trusting people, way too much.

The priest, the neighbors. Everyone.

Look, Lozano.

I'm trying to help here, okay?

It's very likely someone pushed Candela

-into being how she is. -My wife is ill.

I'm not interested in anything other than curing her.

Not now, Lieutenant.

Yeah.

Copito knows not to disturb her.

We're gonna search the house in the forest.

You'll be coming with me.

Everyone but her.

Sofía?

The final veil is the kingdom.

Sofía.

The gate will open with a soul of blood.

What are you doing here?

How did you find this place?

Dekta and I are connected.

Soon the pain will go away.

…go away…

Soon we will be one and the same.

What's the way to the kingdom like? Can you see it? Is my brother there?

I'm sorry.

"Bježi."

"Run."

No, no, no, no, no. Why would Goran write "run"?

Sofía?

Uh-- Sofía?

Sofía!

Sofía!

What did you do down there?

Did you ever bring Sofía here?

Look, we've taken samples and fingerprints.

You can tell me yourself, or the lab will.

What they'll find is blood.

And our fingerprints.

And Sofía's as well.

Traces of hallucinogens and semen.

Doesn't matter.

They're pieces of a puzzle you cannot put together.

Did you rape Sofía?

Do you think that I could?

Who abused her, then?

Was it the kid, Halid?

Where's he hiding?

I can make your life a living hell in jail.

Most of my body is already dead, Lieutenant.

Prison does not frighten me.

Does my faith bother you that much?

You won't change a thing by hitting me.

But you have no idea how good it feels.

Who organized the mine ritual?

-Was it Elena? -You tell me.

Was it Blanca?

No, no, no, no. Enough. No, no, no. No.

Are you afraid?

You've been with Blanca.

Why are you afraid, huh? Do you know you're dying, just like me?

Really, you fucking piece of shit? And here I thought I was immortal.

Let the kingdom come. Let him judge you.

It cannot be stopped now.

No, no, no, no, no! No, no!

There's a thread connecting Sofía and Dekta.

That's why you were able to see her at the temple when she wasn't actually there.

-Now they're one and the same. -I don't really know what I saw.

She took my hand, and on the floor,

the word "bježi" had been written. "Run."

Why? Why would he have written it?

Elena performed the ritual, My brother should be happy.

He was crossing the gate.

But he told me to run. I know he did that for me.

Stop measuring that world using concepts from this one.

Happiness, pain…

What does that mean there?

Nothing.

In the kingdom, we will all become one.

He was scared.

Isn't a baby afraid when they're about to be born?

Sofía will go to the temple and sacrifice herself before the altar.

When the fifth veil has been opened, the Lonely King will come, Halid.

The pain will end.

And you and Goran will be together.

Estrella.

I'll get the results from the hospital tomorrow, but most likely…

…Sofía had sexual relations.

I don't know if it was consensual.

Sons of bitches.

So did those guys tell you that?

No, they only give me that mystical crap about the truth and the kingdom,

and some bullshit about Blanca being the transmitter of the light.

The vessel.

What?

In his notebooks,

Ezcaray says there are minor gods called archons,

who can cross the threshold.

Supposedly, when they enter our world, they must inhabit a human body.

Which is a vessel.

They cannot live outside it.

Not for very long.

I wanted to see the painting again

in case it could help us understand it a bit better.

What… what they did to Sofía…

is part of a ritual.

I read members of Gnostic sects

offered their bodies as a release from the material world.

Hmm. I don't know.

Maybe.

I tried to get something out of Blanca,

but when she goes all mystic, all I can think about is punching her.

Want me to talk to her?

Maybe I can understand her.

It was suffocating. Why did you do it?

Move away! You don't understand anything.

What don't I understand?

I'm only trying to help you.

I've seen Mom.

I've seen the light of the kingdom.

And you're not gonna stop me from opening the gate so I can be with her.

Nobody can stop it now.

Can you even hear yourself?

The kingdom will come.

And when it does, maybe you won't be one of the chosen ones.

But I'll be one of them.

Because I am a perfect one,

just like my mom.

Earlier, I thought it was a shitty idea

to let you see your daughters,

but shitty ideas are the only ones I have left.

Oh, Dad.

Eva.

Dad, tell me you don't have anything to do with the fucking cult. Please.

-Tell me, please. -Of course I don't, sweetheart. I don't.

Why didn't Sofía come?

Go on, Eva.

It's what you wanted, hmm?

Well, Dad, Sofía…

I don't know how it happened, because I swear I was vigilant, but

somehow, the people from the cult talked to her.

And I don't know how, but she was brainwashed.

What do you mean?

She's convinced that life is some kind of dream

and the only real thing is that shit about the kingdom.

You must be happy, Pablo.

Your daughter joined your team.

…that wants part of us doing it.

Give my ailing wife the virtue of repentance.

-Give my ailing wife… -Don't you get tired?

You parade God as if it was the answer to everything.

And it's not the answer to shit.

Do you know what I'm tired of?

Your lack of respect.

Tough luck.

The saint has an insolent dyke for a daughter.

What's the Bible's opinion?

Because what's clear is that you're incapable of saying anything.

You're not fixing a thing about our messy family

-by lighting candles for your saints. -What can I do, huh?

Why don't you try saying the truth?

Mom has never been okay, and you did nothing to cure her.

-How do you think all this started? -You tell me. I wish I knew.

Maybe it started when she learned she couldn't have children.

So it's true.

…up to 24 liters of rain fell on Vigo.

We also had rain, although a smaller amount in the…

I've been walking around town all day. Can I stay tonight?

My head is about to explode.

Tell me about it.

Would you rather have a pill?

-Belda gave me some to help me sleep. -No.

I may not be her daughter, but I'm becoming like her,

swallowing tranquilizers to cope.

Mar.

Candela's not okay.

-Maybe what she said was just a delusion. -No.

I can't deny it. It's pointless.

The only good thing is I can't inherit any traits from my asshole father.

If you're adopted, you can find out.

-You have the right. You're old enough. -And then what?

Imagine I find those parents who never wanted me.

What is it good for?

The only things I do have are

a house that looks like a church, a crazy mom, and a dad who makes me sick.

That's not true.

You also have me.

-You can stay here as long as you want. -No.

I don't wanna be a burden.

Your sister… You've got enough taking care of her.

I need to feel something good, despite all of this.

And the only good thing is you.

Eva, it's all right. I can wait.

I can't.

She didn't leave her bed all morning. Not even to eat.

I'll wait here.

Can you hear me?

My name is Estrella.

I want to discuss what's happening to you, Blanca.

I believe I can help you.

You're not in control of what you do, are you?

"They placed a highly valuable object in your body."

"You, who have joined the perfect light,

bring the angels to us."

It's not an angel.

It's a demon.

It's eating away at me.

It wants you to convince the others, to lead them to their death,

which is the entrance to the kingdom, right?

-It's not inside me now. -We will protect you.

You won't be the vessel again. Don't worry.

-You won't have to obey again. -It's not inside me.

-We will protect you. -It's not inside me. It's not inside me.

But it will return and force me take Sofía to the gates.

Which gates?

Which gates, Blanca? What does Sofía have to do?

Tell me!

No! No, no, no!

Calm down!

-You must let me die! -Take it easy! Take it easy!

Let me die before it comes back! Let me die, please!

No!

No!

No!

Glycolic acid.

It's a metabolite of GHB,

a sedative that causes loss of consciousness.

Right?

And ergotamine. A hallucinogenic.

Eva told me what you think you saw.

And it's normal. You needed an explanation, didn't you?

Well, here it is.

All it was was a guided hallucination.

By Samuel and the others, but mostly by Blanca.

She was the one who got you to have those hallucinations.

Wasn't she?

I still have them.

Sofía, I also saw things.

Things that weren't real.

Remember?

Those imaginary bugs under my skin?

Dekta.

Is that what Blanca called it?

I know things…

that nobody told me.

I don't know how, but I know them.

Like the names of the archons of the kingdom.

Dekta,

Umma…

How do I know that?

What else do you know? What else did you do with the cult?

Were they preparing you for something?

Don't feel pity for them, okay?

They caused a lot of harm.

Okay, don't worry. Hmm?

THE DAWN OF A NEW WORLD

Don't make the same mistake as your mother, you hear me?

Don't believe them.

So how did they get Mom to do it, then?

I don't know, I--

haven't stopped thinking about it.

Your grandfather Valentín was…

He was a strange man.

He spent time hiding in the mine, trying to escape the Franco regime.

Your mother went to see him every day, now and then, and…

I don't know, maybe he told her about the cult.

I can't think of anything else.

And just like you went, expecting to find your mother,

she might have fallen prey to them while looking for her father.

I saw her.

She was very much alive.

-Where did you see her, sweetheart? -She was hallucinating.

They drugged her.

It doesn't matter what she saw. What matters is who was running things.

Sofía, tell your father. Was it Blanca?

What did she do to you?

The veils of light.

There are five.

The last one opens the gate to the Lonely King.

How many did you open, Sofía?

Four.

That's what Elena and Blanca did in the mine, isn't it?

The fifth veil, leads people to commit suicide.

I don't know.

Sofía, don't you realize all this is insane?

-There's no kingdom, no nothing. -Sofía. Sofía, look at me.

They will keep trying.

You will feel like you must do it.

But please, don't you open the fifth veil for anything in the world.

You won't save your mother.

What you saw is not a hallucination.

The kingdom is real, it is hell.

-What the fuck? -Don't open it. Don't go in again!

-Get him out of here! -My mother needs me!

Mom sacrificed herself to close that gate.

-Don't make her death be in vain. -Shut your mouth!

Don't open the last veil, Sofía! You hear me?

-Do you hear me? -You son of a bitch!

What do you want? To make her crazy?

Sofía, do you hear me?

Get him out of here! Now!

Forget everything he told you. He was in a cult. He's been lying to us.

Sofía.

I knew I saw Mom. She's in the kingdom.

For God's sake, Sofía, stop talking crazy!

It's just you and me now.

I'm not leaving her alone.

No.

And what will you do? Kill yourself, same as she did? Huh?

Because that's the fifth veil, isn't it? You'll kill yourself to be with her?

Eva, step aside, or I will hurt you.

Oh yeah? Bring it on.

Sweetheart.

Come with me. I need to hold you.

You must be insane.

-I can't believe you're such an asshole. -You don't get it.

Of course I don't get it!

Your daughter is this close to losing her mind, and what do you do?

-Give her a shove. Feed her fantasies. -You said it. She's my daughter.

I told her that to help her.

Making her believe she can open a gate to hell with her superpowers!

-Great therapy! -It's the fucking truth, damn it!

It's the fucking truth!

Isn't that what you wanted? Well, there you go.

What ideas did they plant in your head?

[groans[

Elena knew it.

I thought we could live with the secret, that everything had ended, but…

But it never ends. It never ends.

They're using my daughter to open the gate.

But who is? Who is using her?

Blanca? She's at the hospital. She tried to kill herself.

Who are you afraid of, Pablo? Samuel? Dekta? A god?

"There was an angel that emerged from the cloud,

fire pouring out of its face, its body covered in blood."

"And its name was…

Yaldabaoth."

You are talking about a snake with the head of a lion!

I've seen them, Guillén.

I've seen them, just like Sofía.

They are demons. That's what the kingdom is.

And the cult will allow them in.

You need psychological help, Pablo. A fucking straitjacket.

When the cycle is completed before the temple gate,

the Lonely King will come with all the stars

and fulfill what was announced.

It's the fucking apocalypse, Guillén.

Pablo.

Please.

You have to keep my daughter away from the temple.

I beg you, Guillén.

What temple?

We went more than a quarter of a mile in,

and we couldn't find Elena's body or that temple.

Let's go.

My patience is running out, Pablo.

It's here.

It's here. This is it.

That's it. This is it.

What the fuck is this place?

Sofía, what are you doing?

It's not you.

All this is your fault.

My fault?

What? Huh?

What did I do wrong?

You wanna kill me?

Fine.

So do it. Come on!

Go on, kill me!

Kill me! Come on!

Drop it.

Sofía.

Sofía.

I love you.

Drop it, please.

Eva? What's going on?

Call the police.

Sofía!

Sofía!

Eva!

Go grab a rag!

Eva!

It can't-- It-- No!
