Are you willing to cooperate?

That depends. Are you willing to believe me?

I drove a long way to come here.

Help me get my children out of Las Cumbres boarding school.

Your children are safe. Especially now Darío Mendoza has vanished.

Do you have any idea where he might be?

No, I don't. And my children are not safe.

Do you think Darío acted alone, without accomplices?

I don't know. You tell me.

Who helped him?

There's too much money at stake.

With Darío not around, it's possible my brother-in-law

Marcel Uribe and his wife Nicole have taken the reins of the business.

They're the ones in charge of Corax Laboratories.

They're just as bad as Mendoza, or worse.

Why does Corax invest in a boarding school?

The school provides fresh meat,

which an unethical neuroscientist can experiment with as he pleases.

It's all gone to shit.

- We're not going to find Amaia. - What?

- The blood in the bucket... - Shut up!

I'm sorry, but it's the truth.

- You just won't see it... - I said shut up!

Which part don't you understand?

It's not good if you stop in the middle of an exercise.

You know what? I'm getting out of this fucking school.

None of this makes sense.

What? You're leaving? Seriously?

- Fine! Then go! - Paul!

- Selfish prick! I'll find Amaia myself! - Enough!

Go on hit me. Isn't that what you want?

That's enough! You want some adrenaline?

50 push-ups. Now!

Didn't you hear me? Now.

Cruz, you want to join them? Carry on.

What is the purpose of these experiments?

Darío and I partnered up to study human ageing.

We found out that where the school is located,

there was a medieval lodge...

that had very advanced knowledge in this field.

Right... The Lodge?

Yes, the Lodge.

The Lodge recorded their incredible wisdom in three books...

which they called the Draco Musca.

A veritable scientific treasure.

Where does the school come into it?

Darío had one of the books, and he needed the other two.

Those people could arrest the human ageing process.

What?

I know it sounds like science fiction,

but imagine how rich the chemist who had that formula could become.

The problem was finding someone from the Lodge

to help Darío find the other volumes and the formula.

I'm sure Darío tried everything to summon the Lodge.

He sent lanterns into the sky, he dressed like them.

He tried everything.

But all that did was alert the enemies of the Crow's Nest,

those who kill girls, hang them from trees,

and rip out their eyes.

Ring any bells?

You mean Pelayo killed those girls because someone summoned a medieval lodge?

For a religious fanatic, defying death is like defying God.

History has been full of them.

It's absurd that a stupid fantasy has caused so much harm.

It isn't a stupid fantasy, Inspector.

Darío found a 120-year-old woman who didn't look older than 16.

Believe it or not, that woman is alive.

I met her myself years ago.

There is also a man of the same age.

I need the book Friar Jeremías was hiding, Paul.

Students on duty today, report to the kitchens.

Breakfast will be served in five minutes.

Excuse me.

Have any books arrived from the monastery?

- Old books? - No.

What are you looking for?

Nothing.

The problem is that the formula that stops ageing has a side effect.

Over time, it causes severe amnesia.

That is how Darío was able to pass that woman off as his daughter,

put her in the school,

and experiment on students to bring back her memory.

Do you know how difficult it is to believe what you're telling me?

I know.

But it's all true.

Please, I need you to take my children out of the school.

Inspector, close it down.

I don't have anything to convince a judge to close that school down.

Nothing.

LAS CUMBRES BOARDING SCHOOL

I deserve the punishment that I received,

and I promise not to break the rules again.

We're grateful to this institution for correcting us and showing us the way.

I need you to help me get my phone back.

I was hoping you'd come and see me in the cooler.

I had the night from hell.

I couldn't get out, OK?

I need that phone tonight without fail, Martina.

You know what, Adèle?

I'm not helping you anymore.

You're just toxic.

Martina, I...

Inés?

When did you get back?

Why haven't you come to see me?

I just arrived.

Where is your father?

How are you?

I have no idea where Darío is.

And I'm...

better than ever.

I snuck out to smoke in the cloisters, and...

I saw Amaia.

What?

- Literally, just now. - Where was she?

I saw her through a window.

- Which window was it? - That one.

The same one she fell from.

Amaia went that way. Come on.

- Did she look OK? - Yes, I think so.

Did you see if she was alone? Was she running away?

A monk was leading her, leading her by the arm.

A monk? Which one?

- What was he like? - I didn't recognise him.

But...

And the broken leg? Was she limping?

I don't know. It all happened so quickly.

Listen, are you fucking with me or what?

No, I think it was her.

- You "think" it was her? - Fuck!

Mate, are you an arsehole?

- So you didn't see Amaia? - Maybe it seemed that I did...

I don't believe it!

- Why would you make it up? - This isn't a fucking joke!

I'm sorry.

I knew it.

- Don't say it, Manu. - You're blind.

Don't you realise? We've been looking for her for days.

- She's not here. - And what?

Amaia and I looked for you for days.

And we never gave up, alright?

- While making out behind my back? - Weren't you going?

Didn't you want to leave?

Then go. I never want to see your fucking face again.

You make me sick.

Does anyone know what a mathematical conjecture is?

I'll give you an example.

You are a bunch of blockheads.

Until yesterday, that was just a conjecture.

But then there was actual proof of it...

in the exams, so now it has become an undeniable truth.

So were you thinking of me last night?

While I was in the cooler?

Yes, a lot.

Where did you learn to do this?

That is how mathematics works, transforming hypotheses into truths...

I'm sorry about before.

I hope that's clear.

Forget it.

Get studying...

blockheads.

Paul!

Paul, Tripi and Ansias took my phone.

They took your phone?

- I want the phone! Now! - What are you doing?

You deaf? Give me the fucking phone!

Get off him!

Come on, let's go.

You looked like a psycho.

What's wrong, Paul?

I don't care what Manu says.

That blood isn't hers.

It can't be.

What are you talking about?

I have to find her, Adèle.

I have to find Amaia.

You won't believe me, but you have to listen.

They've killed another monk, Manuel.

He's hanging...

half-naked...

- And... - You know what?

Even if you'd seen a hundred monks

hanging from a tree, I don't care!

Let them kill each other.

Are you really going?

The only thing I cared about in this fucking school...

was Amaia.

And now she's dead.

So I'm getting out of here.

Fine, I'll grab a couple of things and we'll go together, OK?

I can't stay here either.

No way.

I just want to get out of here.

I have friends who can come and collect me.

Look, I'm not even going down the road with you.

Get it?

Paul?

What's happened?

Does it sting?

I'm going back down there.

I'll go through that underworld until I find her.

That place is dangerous.

It's easy to get in, but very difficult to leave.

- I'll go with you. - No.

You and Léon have little time left.

Shall we go?

Léon?

- Léon? - You're back.

How are you? Are you OK?

- Ready for a marathon. Look. - And everything else?

I'm fine, it's stopped, I'm not forgetting anymore.

I'm so pleased.

She hasn't stopped talking about you.

The book you gave me is wonderful.

- I have so many things to show you... - Yes?

I'm sorry, but I have to go. We'll talk later.

OK, I'm leaving right now.

Hello. How was your journey? Are you well?

Very well.

Darío had invited us to stay for a few days.

- Where is he? - I don't know any more than you do.

I've left him several messages and I'm trying to get him to come back.

I'm going to stay here.

I won't wait any longer.

The plan continues.

We're not going to back out.

Everything is now fine with respect to Inés Mendoza, OK?

Have you heard the legend of the minotaur?

I'm behind you, Ariadne.

They're Jeremías' books.

The ones he had in his cell.

We have to look for Amaia.

This could be your last chance.

So it was true what your sister said?

You didn't want to scare Martina?

It doesn't hurt.

They can do what they want to me.

And this...

This doesn't hurt either.

And even if they hit me really hard...

They can't hurt me.

Nobody can hurt me.

I managed to get a phone.

But some arseholes took it off me.

It was so I could talk to my mum...

who's in prison.

You see?

That does hurt.

I was going to talk to her tonight.

She always calls me at 8 PM, just in case she's lucky.

Well, tonight she won't be.

Hey! Hey!

Who are you? Are you looking for someone?

Look who we have here.

I see you've recovered.

Resuming your classes?

Yes. Let's talk later.

It's curious.

Only today I saw Inés Mendoza.

Quite a coincidence.

You think so?

MEDICAL REPORT STUDENT: ZOE CRUZ

"Borderline personality disorder,

brought about by an unstable childhood.

She was born in a brothel.

Social services took care of her after her mother,

who had severe psychological problems, committed suicide.

She was seven years old.

Since then she has grown up in shelters run by the Dominican Order..."

- Why aren't you in class? - I'm going to the toilet.

I've got to get changed.

Hey, have you seen Manuel Villar?

"She has trouble accepting her reality,

which leads to a tendency to fantasise.

The constant lying and self-deception

causes serious social problems

and an inability to maintain friendships."

Poor Basiano.

He was hanging like a dead animal, humiliated...

God rest his soul.

Who is tormenting us?

They even drained his blood

with a hideous machine from the Inquisition.

They found his blood in a bucket.

Lord have mercy.

Hello, brothers. Is this everything?

INDUSTRIAL LAUNDRY

- Fuck, we're too late. - Get back.

Careful.

Shit.

Here it is. The second volume.

It didn't burn.

They haven't burnt for centuries, Paul.

We learned to protect ourselves from fire.

No wonder my mother wanted to be a witch in the Crow's Nest.

And now we'll find Amaia.

Give it to me.

Paul, the string...

It's gone.

Let's get out of here.

Let's go.

The brothers are very frightened.

Prepare some comforting words for the homily.

What are you doing there, girl?

I came to find somewhere quiet to pray.

I love praying, you know?

Well, well...

Your mother was also very devout, in her own way.

Pardon?

You look so much like her.

María Cruz.

It's like I'm looking at her.

How did you know her?

She came to Las Cumbres.

She asked us for help.

We did what we could.

But we were too late.

I'm sorry.

Haven't we been this way like 15 times?

No.

- How do you know? - Because we would've seen this.

It pulls tight.

That means this part is still attached.

Paul.

We will find Amaia.

OK?

What are you going to do with the book?

I need these, OK?

What's this? What are you doing?

We were told to clean out empty lockers.

- And is this one empty? - No, but...

I'll take care of it.

What?

What are you doing here?

Didn't you leave?

But where are we going?

Paul.

You were right.

Amaia isn't dead.

What? Why?

The blood that we saw was a monk's.

Zoe saw him, hanging, and bled dry like an animal.

That blood wasn't Amaia's.

- So you believe me? - Are you sure?

I know it's true.

Wait...

The monk that you saw... was Basiano?

Yes, the hunchback, from the cemetery.

- What is it? - It was in Amaia's locker.

It's her writing.

Jeremías, Basiano, Cecilio, Vicente... It's a list.

Exactly. Jeremías was first, and now Basiano...

- Who's next? - Cecilio.

Wait, wait...

Does this mean the maths teacher will be next?

Fuck.

But how did Amaia know?

That there'd be multiple crimes?

Serial killings?

We have to warn Cecilio, right?

Yes.

Students are reminded that they have

15 minutes to change their bedsheets.

Why are you smiling?

Come here.

How did you get it back?

My brother.

Someday you'll tell me why that phone is so important.

My mother calls me from prison every night.

Really?

I thought maybe you had a girlfriend on the outside.

I wouldn't answer my mother's calls,

not even if she was on death row.

Finally.

I thought something had happened to you.

Yes, something incredible has happened.

When you get an idea in your head, Alicia Bernal...

This is the solution to our problems.

We don't have many days left...

but we'll do it.

We're going to live, León.

Cecilio isn't in the school. What do we do now?

What if they already killed him?

CAPILLARY ANALYSIS CORAX LABORATORIES

- Mario? - Mara.

I had a headache and I'm looking for painkillers,

but I can't find any.

Right... I consider you a good team member, Mario.

But I'll give you one warning.

Trustworthiness is vital in this job...

And in life.

And you're testing my trust.

Anything for me?

No, I haven't seen anything.

Look, I'm putting my job on the line.

So it's best we leave it here, OK?

Corax Laboratories is experimenting on students at the school.

How can that be happening without you knowing anything?

What are you suggesting?

If you find the proof I've asked for,

then I'll know that you have nothing to do with this.

On the other hand...

Right then...

Can you tell me what you're doing here?

- We were looking for you, Friar Cecilio. - Yes.

We know that two friars have been killed.

Heavens.

I thought you wanted to compliment me on today's class.

Well, yes, that too. It was great.

Do you remember Amaia?

We think her disappearance is linked to these deaths.

This'll seem strange, but Amaia had a list.

Yes.

Jeremías, Basiano...

And the next one is you.

We have to talk to Prior Arturo and the police immediately.

Come with me.

Wait in here.

I'll be right back with Don Arturo.

"This" opens doors.

It was... a trap.

Very cosy.

It's Cecilio.

- Cecilio's the one who attacked Amaia! - What?

It was him that threw Amaia out the window!

- He has the screwdriver mark on his neck. - Zoe...

- Stop lying. You don't need to... - I'm not lying!

The screwdriver was star-shaped, like the wound...

Look around you.

Everyone's life is shit here. You don't have to make things up.

You don't have a gardener, you don't have a mansion.

And you don't have parents, but it doesn't matter, Zoe.

- It doesn't matter. - Guys...

We're locked in.

Students are reminded that study period is necessary for revision and learning.

Paul?

Adèle Uribe?

Are you now such a genius that you skip study period?

Your grades suggest otherwise.

I need the toilet. Urgently.

Not so fast.

Tomorrow your uncle Marcel is coming to visit.

I'll be sure to tell him all about...

...your failures.

OK.

Can I?

Shit!

Shit.

Mum?

I thought you weren't going to call.

I need to know that you're all right. Pass me to Paul.

Paul is being punished.

But he loves you very much and sends lots of kisses.

He's being punished?

Why? What happened?

Mum, Marcel is around.

What?

Yes, he was with Darío. He's like him.

Do you think he could have the proof you need to get out of prison?

Does he have it?

Of course he has it.

Adèle, darling... Don't try anything, OK?

- Marcel is ruthless. - Yeah, but...

No, listen to me. He's dangerous.

Understand?

This is not the way.

Promise me.

I promise.

Out of the way.

Fuck, it won't open. Why did he lock us in?

I don't know, but we have to get out now.

Cecilio seems so nice. I don't understand at all.

- What are you doing? - What do you think?

Help me.

Watch it! It's gas!

- Help us! - Open the door!

Help!

Students are reminded that they have 15 minutes to wash

before going to bed.

Lights will be turned out in 15 minutes.
