Season 1 Episode 2 "Everything has a price"

translation: Natalya Izunova, Tonya Botvina, Lena Kuryzhko, Olga Sokolova

Supreme Court of Spain

Can you tell us anything else?

or refuse to testify again?

What do you want me to say?

My daughter was detained, and I could not help her.

I couldn't even see her.

We spent the whole night trying

to find out where they took her,

asked that we be allowed to talk to her, at least for a minute.

If anyone was innocent, if anyone was

innocent, it was Esther, but she had to pay.

And pay in full.

No no. Please no.

No Please. (English) No, no.

I'm Spanish. I am the ambassador's daughter. (English) Please, I didn't do anything.

No.

Sorry. I don't speak Thai. (English)

Is what you said before true?

Are you the ambassador's daughter?

Shit.

So they really can't do anything.

Who are they?

At the consulate.

I've been listening to this for 4 years now.

If you're here...

You have to pay for everything:

to eat meat, to buy a band-aid...

If you want me to protect you from

these animals, you also need to pay.

But considering who you are, money won't be a problem, right?

What happened, Roberto?

Can you explain to us what the fuck you were doing there?

They told me there would be a party there

but if I had known, I would never have told her anything.

I'm really sorry, I really am. - Roberto, listen.

The situation is very serious. It's important that you tell us everything

whatever you remember, that's all. - I know.

I told the police the same thing: I didn't see anything.

I'm sorry. I myself was miraculously released.

They'll let her go too, right? She also has diplomatic immunity.

Must.

We do everything necessary for this both

from Spain and from here. Consul permanently

in touch with the authorities. - 10 grams, 10 stupid grams.

She can't be judged for this. - They won't judge her for this.

We won't let this go to trial. - It's impossible to predict.

The sentence can be from 15 years.

Sometimes the death penalty is imposed, although

in such cases the king usually intervenes.

I'll go to the police, I'd prefer to find out

how things are there. With your permission...

Sarah, Eduardo, be as careful as possible.

We just don't have enough press interference in our actions.

Esther traveled all over the world. She

couldn't take marijuana there with her.

We'll get her out, don't worry!

How can you be so calm?

I will keep you posted.

Make sure she doesn't do anything:

Waiting is not her strong suit.

- You gave her marijuana. - No.

Esther doesn't smoke marijuana, and I got rid of

what I had before I went to the airport to meet her.

I do not trust you.

I threw her into the sea, I swear to you. I wouldn't lie to you about it.

You've been lying to me all the time, from the moment we met.

She is my daughter, and they will ruin her life.

And you think that I don't care?

Don't know. I don't know, you tell me.

I'm worried too.

Claudia, of course I'm worried too.

Don't come any closer, okay?

Dont touch me.

This arrived 5 minutes ago. Updated list of lawyers.

Thank you.

How are you Did you manage to get some sleep?

Did the ambassador ask you to look at something else encrypted?

About his daughter or about yesterday?

Mayte, I don't need details.

Just answer: did he ask for any other documents regarding visas?

I only follow orders.

Don't put me in an awkward position, please.

Okay, check this phone and this one.

I want to talk to both of them as soon as possible. Thank you.

Patricia! Patricia!

Are you sure about what we are doing?

- Not now. - No, right now.

I spent the whole night trying to make sure nothing happened to this girl.

Was there really a need to do this?

If anyone spills the beans, we will all be to blame.

I do not know anything. Ask Eduardo.

What meanness! They told me and I couldn't believe it.

When did it all happen? At night, right?

How is she? Do you know anything about her? Did you manage to talk to her?

She was transferred to a maximum security prison.

That's all we know.

She cannot be detained, this is contrary to the Vienna Convention.

Have you managed to do anything?

I was waiting for your morning to come.

Listen, Louis, I'll tell you what we'll do.

I'm drafting a communiqué that we'll send to the Vice President.

Thailand. And I will try to make sure that the royal family

from Brussels knows about everything. Let's start with this.

I couldn't talk to the minister: he was away.

I was left alone with a million things to do.

But don't worry. Don't worry. - Vargas, what's going on?

We're being tricked, the devil, that's what's happening.

I spend whole days negotiating everything.

We even schedule coffee breaks.

A nightmare! What have we done since we came to the Government? Nothing.

They think we'll fail.

We are not doing anything necessary.

Sorry Louis

sorry.

If there is no news about your daughter, we will do something else.

I will raise this issue at the Council on Friday, I promise you.

But my daughter can't wait until Friday.

But she will be released from prison on bail. Or not?

Only if he admits guilt. And she is innocent.

Yes, sure. Sorry to ask, Louis, but are

you one hundred percent sure about this?

Didn't she have any marijuana with her? Wasn't it hers?

- What are you doing? Do not be silly. - Louis, are you sure?

Sign in.

Okay, we'll be in touch. Naturally.

This is a list of lawyers with whom European embassies have cooperation agreements.

They all have good recommendations.

I took the liberty of choosing this one: in my opinion, he is the best.

Thank you. This is all?

No. Villar also called from prison.

We managed to achieve something.

Sorry, Mr. Ambassador, but at the airport they insist that we must

empty the containers. I understand that now is not the right time,

but your move is still in force?

Yes of course.

- Julio, take care of this, please. - Yes, I'm going to the airport.

Good luck with your daughter, let everything be fine!

Thank you.

Call Romero, the journalist. Tell me everything.

With a little luck, all the checks that the ambassador

has begun will lead him straight to returning home.

Very good.

Romero?

Speak, Patricia. What do you want me to do?

Are you serious?

His daughter?

Villar is waiting for us inside with a lawyer. He is French.

Guillon, his name is Guillon Perez. His father is Spanish, from Valencia,

but he has been living here for 6-7 years,

working as a lawyer. He has already pulled out many.

But he charges dearly for his services.

I'm Perez. Nice to meet you.

You must be... - Claudia.

- And you? - Carlos.

- Her fiance. Were you allowed to see her? - No, I will see her after you.

Pardon my suit. I was surfing on the beach when...

My daughter is innocent.

I am sure about that. That's why I agreed to protect her.

Okay, now we need to do something...

You must hand over mobile phones, tablets, if they have cameras...

Show your passports and go through.

Louis, I can't find my passport.

- What's happened? - I can’t find my passport.

- Did you search well? - Yes, I'm looking everywhere.

- Devil, Claudia! - He's not there, he's not there.

Sorry.

Wait here.

We have a small problem...

Carlos, help him with the translation.

No need, Guillon speaks Thai. But he prefers to do business in English.

He's very good.

Let's send Chan to look for his passport at home?

Do you know where you put it? - I don't know.

It should have been in the bag. - She never knows anything.

Is Esther also in this building?

First we need to get her transferred from here.

The cells here are overcrowded. The women sleep almost on

top of each other, the healthy with the sick, all together.

No blankets, no sheets, no anything.

I'm sorry that all this is happening to you, because you just arrived.

I promise I will do my best...

I'm sorry, I really am.

- Why did you need this? - What?

So that I can take the ambassador's daughter away from the reception.

There were important topics to discuss;

I didn't want her to distract my father.

I have nothing against

it, but why in "Paradise"?

"Paradise"? Because I heard there will be a party there.

How did I know that all this would happen?

I thought this was a decent place. You go there often.

Roberto, do you think I would put you in danger?

And what would you do if I was detained too?

I did everything so that you would not be detained.

Did you pay for me? And Esther?

Esther! Not everything is so simple with her: they found marijuana on her.

Yes, but she will be sentenced to prison for many years.

We have to do something.

What do you want us to do?

Damn, all their dishes are spicy. It's annoying.

I think there is something we can do to help her.

So that she will be released in a day or less. No verdict.

- What? - But I don't want you to be involved in this.

These people are dangerous. It's clear?

Will you have dessert?

It's okay, you can come in. Two.

Did you say two? There must be three people.

Three persons. Fine? The whole family, okay? (English)

Come on, hurry up. Before they change their minds.

Left.

He said to wait.

Esther, my life...

Expensive.

What did they do to you, honey?

Nothing. There was a fight and I was hit.

But I'm fine, really.

Don't touch! (Thai.)

Mom, tell me that this is a bad dream, that this is not real.

If I could, if I could.

I have immunity. The detention was illegal.

No one read me my rights and no one took a statement from me.

Esther, listen! We'll get you out of here.

We hired the best lawyer. He has handled cases like this many times.

You will get out of here, I promise you. Esther, I swear to you, you will get out of here.

Please tell me that what was in your purse wasn't yours.

- Claudia! - Tell me.

-Are you asking me about this? - Esther, forget it.

Mom, I've never broken the law in my life.

Never in my life.

What they put in my bag was not mine. Do you believe me?

Tell me you believe me! Please. - Don't touch. (Thai.)

- Leave her. - Mom, please get me out of here.

Please take it out.

Dad! Mother! Carlos! Please! - Let her go.

Don't touch her.

Esther!

No! Damn it!

Have you seen her? Did you see what they did to her? - Calm down!

- She's only been here for a few hours! - Claudia, please.

- You have to do something. - Let's get out of here.

Claudia, let's go.

She was hit, she needs to report it.

We will make an official statement to the prison authorities.

I'll take care of it.

This won't help anything.

It would be much more effective to give it

to the right person, you know what I mean?

Pay someone from the convicts to defend her.

And pay the security to hand over the money, and

the head of security to constantly monitor her.

Yes, then she will definitely be convicted.

But if you want to be sure of its protection...

Do as they say.

No.

This is bribery.

- I can’t believe it. - Claudia, this is all very serious,

you can’t even imagine what the Spanish newspapers might write.

I am an ambassador, and such actions are unacceptable to me.

- These are such little things, Louis. - Okay, forget about the newspapers.

She is not to blame, and I am sure that... - In this country, nothing is decided by law.

Why do you think the three of us were allowed in?

How was I allowed to enter without a passport?

We paid for it.

Maybe they paid, but I didn’t give my consent to it.

Does the ambassador know how much I charge per hour?

There is no exact number.

What do you think about the case? Only frankly.

Yes?

Hello.

Yes, I'm still in Bangkok.

No. Look, now is not the right time to talk.

How? What? Louis!

Turn on Spanish news now.

But still, how could it...?

Listen to me. What agency did this come from?

What kind of edition is this?

Wait.

"The daughter of the Spanish ambassador in Bangkok was detained."

I'll call you back.

"The girl was relaxing in a nightclub in the city,

using marijuana. The police took her by surprise."

It's a lie.

“In Thailand people are sentenced

to long prison sentences for drug use.

Apparently, the detainee was transferred to a high-security prison..."

Eduardo, it's me.

They are broadcasting news about my daughter on television.

In Spain, yes. How did they know? Who told them?

I have no idea, but it is, without a doubt, outrageous.

I can try to figure out where the leak is coming from, but I don't know...

Fine. Thank you.

- Where are you going? - To the embassy.

“Only a couple of weeks to this day, although he

has not yet given evidence to the local authorities.

Let us recall that Thailand experienced a military

coup in May 2014, the day when the Government..."

Only everything calmed down regarding the previous

ambassador and again the newspapers intervened.

What are you afraid of, Bernardo?

They will connect one thing to another, you'll see.

Why suddenly?

It was an accident then, but now it's just a reckless girl,

that's all. - Yeah.

It’s best not to cross paths with the ambassador now, he’s all on edge.

We talked about corruption all the

way, I wanted to fall into the ground.

Primarily because of the visa documentation,

that he raised yesterday, and also because of his wife’s passport.

I didn't dare tell him that you had it.

Why didn't you give him back his passport? -Did you find out what I asked you for?

Do we know how the ambassador's wife got to the beach?

I'm waiting for the hotel to call me.

Don't wait, call yourself, now.

Bernardo,

I received news from Madrid,

They have a radical reshuffle in the Ministry.

Because of this and because of what happened to his daughter,

Louis won't be here long.

What if they send agents to check on us all?

Wonderful. We will assist them in everything.

What can they find?

Don't be afraid, Bernardo, there's no need to be afraid of anything.

- Yes, but this incident with his daughter... - Nothing with his daughter.

We have nothing to do with the

detention of his daughter, nothing.

It will be better for you if you understand this.

Or I won't be able to trust you anymore.

Sorry to interrupt you, but we are getting calls from all media outlets.

I tell everyone that we are not ready to comment

yet, but if we do not quickly write our communiqué,

they won't leave us alone.

Do you know that Carmen Castillo is in this same prison?

I've been there several times

already and it's terrible.

This girl will definitely catch some nasty stuff there.

Someone set her up, but someone was not simple.

Calmly.

Sarah, you've been avoiding me for days.

What's happening? Don't you like me anymore?

What I don't like is that God knows how many people have seen

our photos at the hotel. -Are you talking about this again?

Of course, you don’t care, they didn’t recognize you,

and me - yes.

I always knew it was stupid to see each

other in secret, but now it's even worse.

Every time I walk through the doors of the embassy,

I feel naked. - So let's develop this fantasy.

And don't forget to write about it in the report.

Okay, sorry, didn't mean to offend you.

I'm sorry, I understand you

but why should we stop dating because of this,

We didn't take these photos.

Yes, but I don't want to continue playing these games anymore.

Why? If you like me and feel good with me.

-Are you going to leave your wife? - I think about you all the time.

For now these are just words. Prove it to me.

Yes.

- I just talked to the hotel. - AND?

The ambassador's wife did not spend the night alone.

Will you stop rocking the table with your foot? You're making me nervous.

What's going on with you? Are you going to tell me?

Is it because of the ambassador's daughter?

This girl faces at least 25 years in prison.

And I am also blamed for this.

- What are you talking about? - Do you know what I want to do?

Get plane tickets and let us fly

in any direction on the first plane.

You never liked Bangkok. - I said that this is a terrible city,

but where will we fly?

It had to happen someday, I knew it.

When they won the elections, when all

the old cases began to come to light,

for example, yesterday the ambassador requested data on all visas issued for the entire year.

I'll be punished, Olga, I'm sure. - Wait wait.

Let's not worry ahead of time.

Do not exaggerate.

Do you think you're the only one who charges money for visas?

No, my dear, this is what they do in

any embassy in the world, for God’s sake!

Yes, we’ll just spend less, that’s all.

Stop doing this and that's it. Let's get used to it.

Thank you.

In any case, they won't judge you

for what you did last year. - There are not only visas, Olga,

I didn't tell you everything.

Sometimes Patricia asked me to apply for special visas -

urgent: to pay for the trips of some important people

or to leave the country with cash.

This is how I learned that the embassy takes a commission from

each Spanish company if the company enters the Thai market.

And we divided this commission into three, between

Patricia, Eduardo and me, as far as I know, of course.

Then Patricia slowly pulled this money

out of the country and placed it abroad.

In total, we have 17 accounts in Hong Kong, Macau and Singapore.

- 17 bills? - Yes.

- Your common ones? - Mine, mine, ours.

The fact is that these accounts are opened for dummy persons

and Patricia has the right to sign, but the money is ours.

What amount are we talking about, Bernardo?

5.5 million euros.

Olga, I'm between a rock and a hard place.

The ambassador will reveal everything, I could

be put in prison for the rest of my life.

My love, why didn't you ever tell me anything about this?

Because everything was going well

everything was easy and good, Olga, very easy,

and now we have to do something.

Will you deal with the girl yourself

or should I intervene, as usual?

- What do you think, Chin, is she jealous? - Yes, of course, I’m jealous.

To whom? To Sarah, who just left you?

No, I'm only worried about the expense you'll have to pay.

If you want her to continue leaking information

from business parties, you'll have to pay her extra.

See, it would be more economical for

us if you fucked her from time to time.

How do you like this fabric?

I chose it, but now I don't know...

From here, don’t narrow it too much. - Fine.

Oh look who's here:

ambassador's daughter.

Her mother is a journalist. Her colleagues won't miss this news.

Poor girl.

She must be terrified.

Don't you feel sorry for her?

Of course, very much so.

If it were up to me, she would already be free, but...

Yeah. She is paying for her father.

In the end, those who seek justice are always the worst.

- Yeah. - By the way,

your brother cries in corners all day.

Esther this, Esther that...

Is this something that runs in your family: you never get out of adolescence until you turn 30?

I have something you'll like.

Look in your jacket pocket.

He was found under a hotel bed in Hua Hin.

The ambassador's wife spent the night there with some man.

With a European man.

I told you, Thomas.

Will you listen to me?

They didn't catch her taking drugs, that's a lie.

There is no official charge or report

from the police. There is nothing.

Where did you get this from?

How is it - what do I want?

What I want?

I want you to remove this message from your internet news feeds right now.

Don't know. Think of something.

What did you say to me? Put it in quotes if you want

but take it away. Right now.

No. The detention was a mistake.

Thank you. I rely on you.

-Where do you think you're going? - I want to talk to her.

Can we talk for 5 minutes? Only 5 minutes.

I promise. - Wow,

It seems that now it doesn’t matter to you that we are seen together.

You're in the news now. Julito, don't be annoying.

Okay, come on in.

He's a reporter. Please sign here at the same time.

Thank you.

I'm very sorry for your daughter.

What do you need?

Kaul Lampun. For 2 years he worked as the second driver of the embassy.

When the previous ambassador's car fell into the

water, he was driving. His body was not found.

Where did you find this information?

This is the official report of the chief of security at the embassy.

I prefer not to say where I got it from.

The autopsy report was changed, the

driver disappeared... How do you like that?

What does the detention of my daughter have in common

with the accident with the previous ambassador?

Yesterday I told you to be careful. In their plans

harm you. - For what? Who needs it?

Who needs my daughter to be in prison?

This could be a punishment.

The Ambassador has been in Bangkok for a week now.

Do you know if he did anything to make anyone feel threatened?

Sign in.

Mr. Ambassador.

The lawyer got the judge to speed up the procedure as

much as possible. He pledged to look into the matter.

and release her on bail on Monday at the latest.

Next Monday? Do you think my daughter can

stay in jail for a week under those conditions?

We need this time to prepare our defense.

And it's better not to rush. If we build a defense of innocence...

We won't build anything!

They planted drugs in her bag. She's innocent.

If she is not released, they will cause a diplomatic conflict.

Who called the police last night? Do we know?

The official version is that it was

a routine police raid on night bars.

No, it wasn't a raid. They came precisely for her.

How did they know she had marijuana in her bag?

Sometimes sellers report buyers to the police.

My daughter didn't buy anything!

They planted marijuana in her bag and then called the police.

And I won't stop until I find out who is behind all this.

Arrange a meeting with someone from the royal family.

It doesn't matter with whom. Who can receive us first?

The fact that my daughter continues to be in prison is a direct violation

Vienna Convention.

Yes. Yes it's me. Of course I recognized you.

I won't distract you. Surely you have more important calls.

The fact is that I found out about what happened to your daughter. Bastards!

Here they first detain you, and only then ask questions.

- Sorry, Cadenas, but... - Yes, of course. I understand, Ambassador.

I just wanted to let you know that if there is anything I can do to help,

no matter what, I'm here. In such moments, we

are first and foremost Spaniards, compatriots.

And they must help each other. - Thank you.

And, with your permission...

I don't know what's going on in Madrid, but they don't answer my messages.

And this is exactly today.

Now, if you don't mind, could you leave me alone?

Gentlemen...

Yes. Who is this?

Roberto.

What do you want?

Hello. And what did you want to tell me? - I swear I couldn't do anything.

They arrived, looked into the bag and found marijuana there.

How could I have guessed this? What could I do? Wait.

Sit down.

I have one contact.

The name and address are written here.

He is well connected and has dealt with such issues a thousand times.

The judge and the prison are under his control.

He works in a prison. He has several bars in the

red light district. You need to see him and talk.

He himself will transfer the money to the right people.

- How much does he want? - How do I know?

I don't think he has a set rate, but

I'm guessing he'll jack up the price here.

Because she is the ambassador's daughter?

Therefore, also for the urgency.

It turns out that I cry and they let her go? So simple?

Corruption has its pleasant moments.

Everything has its price. - If it's so simple, why don't you do it yourself?

I cannot discuss this on my own behalf.

And I don’t know how much you are willing to pay.

He's waiting for you.

You just have to give him what he asks for, that's all. Everything will be decided.

I think it's a hard blow for Esther to be there.

It's terrible that she's in prison. I want her to come out too, believe me.

My pleasure.

Good afternoon.

I saw the reporter leaving here. What did he want?

- Find out about my daughter. - But you didn’t tell him anything?

We all know Romero, he's always snooping around, like all reporters.

No no. Not like everyone else. I'm sure you're not like that.

That's it, Fatima, that's it. You don't need to apologize.

This is important in our profession, really.

Although, when it concerns you and, especially, your daughter,

everything changes.

Do you have a vase to spruce it up a bit?

- Yes. - Exactly what is needed.

So how?

- Everything is fine, everything is fine. - Don't worry.

I'm sure Louis will move mountains just to get

Esther out of there. In the same prison is

another Spanish woman, but she has no one.

Esther has a family who is ready to do anything to help.

Unfortunately, “everything” means nothing.

Hmmm. I imagine that...

That this is an intolerable situation.

In this regard, I don’t think things are going well between you and Louis.

- Yes. It's Complicated. - Your arrival was overshadowed.

The events of that evening. And now this.

Thank you, Fatima.

By the way, I completely forgot.

Eduardo gave this to me.

Looks like he was found at a hotel on the beach.

He was under the bed.

Yes? Do not know how...

Did you meet him there on the beach?

Sorry?

They say you were seen with some European.

Sorry. You don't have to explain anything to me

but know if you need anything or want to vent, I’m here.

The point is, there's nothing to talk about, Fatima.

I don't know what they told you or what they saw, but...

Thank you.

We must help each other.

You can contact me for any reason, you know.

Yes.

Claudia. Sorry. I didn't know that you...

Nothing. I am already leaving. If you need help...

Thank you, that's enough. Thank you, Fatima. Thank you very much.

Hello.

- What's happened? - Think...

I think I know what needs to be done to get Esther out.

-Are you sure it's here? - Yes, I'll talk to you myself.

There he comes.

What he says?

Are you the mother of the detained girl?

Ambassador's wife. (Thai.)

Claudia.

English? (English)

Do you speak English? (English)

- What he says? - Give me a sec.

- What did he say? - He said that he knows that she was detained

in "Paradise" with drugs, said the name of the prison, where she is, what

cell she is being held in, the name of the judge, everything about it.

The only thing he wants to know is what do you want?

What do I want? Like what do I want?

For her to be released, she is not guilty.

She's not guilty. (English)

- What did he say? - What all mothers believe

that their children are not guilty.

What is he doing?

It's now, right now. (English)

What is this?

This is Esther.

Crap!

No no.

Two minutes, only two minutes. (English)

$600,000. - They are crazy.

Why is he leaving? Say we agree.

Say yes". Good, yes.

Two days, I need two days to find the money.

Two days, only two days. (English)

Went.

Yes Yes. Wait a minute please. (English)

Ambassador, they're calling from Madrid, on line three. Third. (English)

Thank you Malay.

Close the door. (English)

Yes?

Vargas, is that you? Yes?

Vargas, is that you?

Why are you calling me on a landline?

I turned off my mobile phone and think I'll throw it away.

Last time I checked WhatsApp, I had 700 new messages.

How are you, Louis? Any news?

I thought you would tell me the news,

I've been waiting for your call all day. - Yes, of course, sorry.

We sent everything through the appropriate channels to Brussels.

I already told you this, right?

Things got a lot worse because of the press.

But I know that the President spoke directly

with the Prime Minister of Thailand. - Why didn’t you tell me about this before?

The Bangkok government promised to quickly

conduct court hearings. - But I know this. This means nothing.

Is this all that has been achieved?

You assured me that you would protest with documents,

that you will find a way out.

My daughter did nothing and

is in a maximum security prison.

If the court proves that she had

drugs with her, a verdict is inevitable.

There can be no exceptions, so we were told.

I'm sorry.

We tried to do something, but it didn't work, Louis.

My friend, I think about you all day.

Listen, they say about me that I shake the air, but

you, my friend, you shoot cockroaches with a cannon.

- By flies. - Flies, cockroaches, what's the difference.

Gin and tonic for the gentleman, please. (English)

That is, do you think,

after this incident

Comrade Ambassador will be more accommodating, right?

I told you yesterday, but you didn’t hear me: you need to be patient, Paco.

Yes, Eduardo, but you know me, I'm not

very patient. And this cannot be delayed.

The contract for high-speed trains should be awarded to me and only me.

This ambassador must be on our side.

Play for our team.

He will be on our side. Just don't screw it up again.

I will not provoke, and you do not provoke me.

Damn, it's hot.

I hate Thailand.

Eduardo, listen.

You can't take photos with girls so seriously.

We've always been here all keeping an

eye on each other since the beginning.

Is not it?

Besides, everything that happened is not our fault.

I am horrified by all the new people who have come into politics.

They say they follow the laws, right? They have principles...

Like Fidel Castro.

Principles, right? Like Stalin, like Hugo Chavez.

Franco, Franco, yes, he had principles.

The thing is, boy, we can't understand these people.

And I prefer to think as always:

those who came into politics came to get rich.

Do you also agree with this or not?

Make another one please.

Eventually you will work with the new ambassador.

He will eat out of your hand.

But most importantly, when he eats from your hand, do not squeeze it.

How well you know me, little devil.

Thank you. (English)

And if he still doesn’t give in,

We have good news from Madrid.

Perhaps he will be sent back faster than expected.

Wow, this is wonderful. Just great.

I'm going to the toilet, I'll be right back.

600 thousand?

Even if I knew where to find them,

What guarantees do we have?

What if we give them away and...?

And we just won't see them anymore?

He called in front of us, we saw Esther in the cell.

This means nothing.

In the morning you didn’t even want to talk about it.

And now you don't want to believe it, Louis.

Louis, for God's sake, how

long will it take to convince you?

Esther is in prison.

And she's only there because she's the ambassador's daughter.

I spent the whole morning

trying to get her out of there.

But it is impossible to solve this from Madrid.

Is it possible from here?

Negotiating with these people behind my back?

Don't know.

Who introduced you to them?

Roberto, brother of Edward.

And why didn't he offer it to me?

- Because... - Why didn’t you tell me anything?

How did you find out about this? - Because you would say no. Said no.

And don’t blame him, if you want, blame only me,

because I asked him not to say anything to you.

We didn't have secrets from each other before, Claudia.

What changed?

You know, I saw her on the phone.

And she was on drugs.

With marks of blows on her face, and she did not stop crying.

What if she hangs herself in prison? - Claudia, please shut up.

Tell me, what if they hang her in her cell or beat her?

- Please shut up. - Fine.

Fine.

But tell me what will you do?

Leave me.

Yes, I'm listening.

Francisco Cadenas? This is Luis Salinas.

Mr. Ambassador, glad to hear from you again.

This is a personal call, I want you to know that

it has nothing to do with the position I hold,

and I'm calling you as a private person. - Of course, of course, I understand everything perfectly well,

but are you okay? Something happened?

I'm calling you because I want...

Because I need to ask you for a favor.

Yes, of course, I already told you that

everything I can do for you, you just need to say.

I need money.

I want to borrow money from you.

This is very urgent, I have to get my daughter out of prison.

Of course, this is the most important thing.

But what amount are we talking about?

$600 thousand, cash.

That's how much they asked for.

And until I hand them over, they will not let her go free.

Hello? You hear me?

Yes, yes, Mr. Ambassador, I am here.

This is a very large amount.

If not, if you can’t lend them to me, tell me and we’ll forget about it.

Mr. Ambassador, you understand that I do not

have that amount of cash here in Thailand.

No?

Okay, forget it.

Ambassador?

I think I can get the money,

but I need to make some calls.

Sk... How much...?

How much time do you think you will need?

Few hours.

Good night, Mr. Ambassador.

Nice place, right? So calm. And what kind, right?

Yes, one piece of advice: next time we talk on the phone...

There won't be a next time.

This is a one-time situation, urgent.

Yes Yes. I'm sorry about your daughter.

Although now you understand how everything is done in this country.

Just. "How many?" One-two...

Not like in Spain, without complications. Everything is in words, and, in the end...

Did you manage to get the money?

Yes of course.

All I have is cash.

Won't you tell me?

This... This is my personal loan.

- Certainly. - I want to say...

I borrow this money from you not in exchange for something, but as a private individual.

I am grateful that you wanted to help me.

How could I refuse? So far from home

if we don't help each other... - And I will return your money.

As soon as I can.

I have no doubt about it.

I count on you, Mr. Ambassador. Good luck.

After all, it's true:

everything in the world has its price.

I'm glad your price is our daughter.

If we manage to get her out of there tomorrow,

it's best that she comes home with you:

to Madrid, and as soon as possible.

What did they say? Carlos. - Carlos.

Carlos, stop.

What happened?

I was a little nervous and they were a little rude.

- But... - Lord, what did they do to you?

But I handed over the money, now they must fulfill their part of the agreement.

The wound needs to be washed.

There is a first aid kit in the upstairs bathroom.

I'll process it.

I hope I didn't spoil anything.

I just wanted to give the money to the boss.

Quiet, quiet, don't move, quiet.

When this is all over, Esther and I will return home.

This is right.

Kanda wants to show us something.

What is written there?

We ask that Esther return to us.

Our desire will rise into the sky, and the light will help it find its way.

The higher you rise, the sooner your wish will come true.

Either answer or hang up the call, otherwise it will wake the children.

It's an emergency, it's from the embassy.

Yes?

Yes it's me. What? (English)

Can I speak to Mr. Marañon please? (English)

Can I come in? Can I come in? Please. (English)

Call Mr. Marañon, please. Mr. Marañon.

I have to talk to him. - It's okay, it's okay. (English)

What happened, Bernardo?

Sorry. Can I come in, Eduardo?

Now is not the right time. What happened?

I'd like to talk privately, if you don't mind.

I just got a call from the court.

They will be trying the case of the ambassador's

daughter and they want me there early tomorrow morning.

This is good news, isn't it?

The ambassador paid $600,000 to get her released.

Six...

But where did he get the money?

He asked Paco for Cadenas, and Paco gave them to him.

But the official version will be that everything became clear. He asked Paco Cadenas, and Paco gave them to him.

But the official version will be that everything became clear

thanks to diplomatic negotiations, and the detention was a mistake.

So tomorrow in court we will just pretend that this is so.

So did the ambassador talk to Cadenas?

And is he aware of the commissions?

In the sense that I will be in court

tomorrow to know who is in the know...

I'll come in your place.

No, I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about the fact that you can trust me.

If there's something I need to do, I'll do it

I just need to know who is aware and who is not.

Bernardo, Bernardo, I said I'll go.

You stay home, okay? That's it, rest.

I'm afraid for you, Bernard.

Take it.

What is this? What do you want me to do with this?

I fell asleep, this cannot continue.

No, I do not want to sleep.

I know what we need to do.

What?

I will make a proposal to the inspector of the anti-corruption committee.

I will give him all the information I have, and for that he will protect us.

Witness protection, and we'll start all over again... Away from everything...

Wait, wait, Bernard, I don't think it's that simple.

Many people have already done this before me. Only we have to do it

Before the ambassador discovers something, the judge will take it into account.

What are you talking about?

Olga, listen, we have no other choice.

Yesterday... Yesterday I messed up with Eduardo,

I'm under his suspicion, I can't wait any longer.

- Start again. - Yes.

Again.

One foot in the past, the other in the future.

And let them stay with our money?

And if...?

And what if something happens to the ambassador's daughter?

The prisons here are very dangerous.

If something happens to her, they will come for us.

- No. “Our actions led to what happened.”

- No no. - Olga, you don’t understand.

Olga.

As soon as she gets out, they will both immediately fly to Spain.

This will be the best option for everyone. On the first plane.

Will you take care of the tickets?

Claudia, Eduardo and Guillon have just returned from court.

Everything seems to be fine there.

We haven't been told anything yet. We do not receive information immediately.

They said that they would send the conclusion directly to the prison.

Isn't it the consul who does all this?

- No, judges. - But will she be released or not?

We hope so, but we don't know when.

Therefore, I believe that it is best for everyone to wait together in prison.

We must believe. - Then let's go. What are we waiting for?

They clearly stated that I

would represent the consulate,

and one more person may be a family member.

One of you three. It doesn't matter who. Decide for yourself.

- I. - I'll go.

If problems arise, I am still an ambassador.

- You need to wait. - Why?

They say that the documents are not ready yet.

I'm not sure if that's the case, but there's nothing we can do.

- Problems? - I don't understand.

They don't want to tell me. Sorry.

Calm down, calm down, let the lawyer

do what he needs to do. If you interfere

it won't solve anything. You will become the problem.

Why so long? They are waiting,

that we will give a bribe again? - It's possible.

Guillon knows what to do. He's not a newbie.

By the way, I know what happened.

I know that Mr. Cadenas helped you.

I'm not proud of what I did.

Did he tell you this? - Don't worry, I won't tell anyone.

Louis, this is your daughter. Who wouldn't do the same for their child?

The main thing is that everything will end well.

One of the wounded prisoners is being transported.

- Is she Spanish? - Seems to be yes.

I want to see her. I want to make sure if this is my daughter.

Let me go, let me go.

Sorry, sorry. (English)

Answer, for God's sake.

Does not answer the phone. And if something happened...

Their mobile phones were taken away. If something happens to Esther,

I will never forgive myself for this. - Nothing will happen to her.

Don't even think about it, nothing will happen to her, okay?

Salinas, they said my last name.

Esther, my life!

Esther, I'm very glad it's over.

If I had known it would be like this,

I would never have brought you there.

It's all gone. Come on, let's go into the house.

That's it, let's go into the house. It's all gone. Come on, let's go into the house.

That's it, let's go into the house.

Calm down, breathe.

Breathe, my life. Are you home. Calmly.

Esther, there's nothing to discuss.

All is decided. You are returning to Madrid. As soon as possible.

Dad, no. Mom, you really don’t need to come with me.

It's better if you stay with dad. - Esther...

Dad, I'll be with Carlos, and I'll be fine.

Esther is right. They return

home, and you and I stay in Bangkok

until you receive a new assignment.

And tomorrow you will ask for a translation. - I don’t know what I would do without you.

Excuse me, Ambassador, can I have a few words with you?

Certainly. Something happened?

Any problem? Something else?

Ministry of Home Affairs of Thailand.

They want to clarify some details about your daughter's release.

Still okay. I signed a million papers.

They want to talk to you, this is the Minister of the Interior.

Yes, sir. Yes it's me. (English)

What happened, Louis?

Esther will not be able to leave the country.

They just officially informed me about this.

You are free, but you cannot leave Thailand.

We have to wait for the trial.

I had to pay more.

You will always have to pay more and more, and it will never end.

This is the principle of blackmail: it is a journey that never ends.

But this, more than ever, united our family with a single goal:

prevent Esther from being condemned.

And it was at this time that you found evidence that

corruption was rampant at the embassy. Is not it?

How did you come up with this evidence?

What's happened?

Everybody is here.

All the information that they wanted to hide is here.

They think they got rid of the evidence, but I kept everything.

All here.

In the next episode...
