[baby cooing and gurgling]
[Coral] It's me.
I've brought the money and…
milk, a bottle,
medicine…
They killed Gina. [sniffs]
I know.
I can't help thinking about her.
[Coral inhales deeply]
[Coral sighs]
The past always comes back.
[laughs] When you least expect it.
If the past always comes back, then let's conclude it.
[solemn music playing]
[Wendy sniffs]
We have to kill Romeo, Coral.
We have to kill that motherfucker.
For him.
We have to give him the normal life his mother never had.
The one we never had.
[Greta] What are you talking about?
Killing an assassin,
a mafioso?
I knew you were crazy, but… [scoffs]
…you are completely insane.
Don't stand up. Are you okay?
-Here, let me help you. -No.
[sniffs]
Antibiotics. You need to take them for at least ten days, okay?
You need to change the dressing yourself. Don't go to the hospital.
If you go to the hospital, it's clear you've been shot.
It's a half a million euros, I think.
What is this?
I don't need all this money to live, and one day,
you may get tired of the gas station.
Get ready. I'll call a taxi.
[gentle tense music playing]
-[baby gurgling] -[Wendy picks up phone]
[Wendy] Hello, I'm calling from room 216. I need a taxi.
Immediately.
Thanks. [puts phone down]
Hey.
Are you okay?
I'm okay.
Coral, it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
We can change our hair, change cities, identities… It doesn't matter.
They'll murder us, and then they'll kill the baby.
[laughs gently]
Now you're the one with plans for suicide revenge. [laughs]
And maybe they'll turn out well. [laughs]
[Coral] Okay.
Let's kill that son of a bitch.
But one more thing…
What?
I wanna burn down the club.
I need to see the fucking neon lights of Las Novias
burning in the middle of the desert.
That terrible place deserves no other finale.
And we rescue the girls.
They should have an ordinary life, just like us.
Deal.
[phone ringing]
[gentle tense music fades out]
Yes?
The taxi is here.
-[Wendy] Hi. -[taxi driver] Hello.

What are you doing?
I don't know.
[gentle emotive music playing]
Yeah, I do know.
I, um…
Maybe since I won't be going to a hospital, well,
maybe I would rather stay here.
'Cause you know a lot about bullet stuff.
Well, you can also say that it happened while scuba diving.
No, no.
I'm staying here with you and helping you take revenge on those bastards.
You escaped from abusers who were exploiting you in a club.
And I left here as though you'd fucked up my life.
As though you were the bad guys.
It's the reverse. You're the good guys.
And so you see,
I'm staying.
Maybe while you're killing those guys, I could take care of the baby.
I can make lunch.
You can't go around killing pimps when you have to bottle-feed, no?

10 DAYS LATER
[unsettling music playing]
I'm going to pee.
[Coral] Wendy convinced me that the simplest and most effective plan
to free the girls was to follow Romeo and then shoot him.
Coldly, without animosity, without psychotropic delusions,
without holes in the ground, and without bulldozers.
It was the second time in my life
that I was gonna kill somebody to get my freedom.
But just like the first time,
things were not going to turn out the way I thought they would.
Instead of getting freedom,
I was about to start sinking rapidly into hell,
like I had never sunk before.
[Wendy, echoing] Coral. Coral, it's Romeo.
[tense music playing]
[Wendy] He's alone.
It's our lucky day.
[tense music building]
Don't get too close. Keep us away.
Okay.
[Greta] He's turning.
Stay with him. Don't let him get away.
He just parked.
[Greta] I think he's on the phone.

I won't live with you anymore.
I wanna live with Grandma. And Lola comes with me.
[emotive music playing]
-Okay. Let's go home. -No way!
[emotive music fades out]
[Moisés] Are you sure it was them?
[Romeo] It was Coral and Wendy.
Gina wasn't there. [sniffs]
There was a… redhead. I think she's the girl from the boat with them.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I know who she is. I'll go get 'em.
Moisés.
[dance music playing in background]
Now I'm not sure that's what we should be doing.
What?
I think we should stop now.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, Romeo.
This is not about forgiveness.
There's only one option.
Life or death. And there is no way back.
It's either going to be them or us.
Don't worry, because I'm going to kill every one of those bitches.
I swear on my life. They will pay.
[Romeo breathing shakily]
[Romeo gasps]
[rustling]
Fuck. [sighs]
[gasping]
Um, I'll come back with this later.
[Romeo] Rubí!
Come in, stay. Stay.
Make me a whiskey. Yeah.
[Romeo sniffing and breathing heavily]
[sniffs loudly then sighs deeply]
[mumbles]
[sighs] Thank you.
Would you bring me that blanket? I'm not feeling well. [sniffs]
Thank you.

I like you caring for me.

Rubí, come here. Come lay down.
Lay down here with me.
[Romeo breathing shakily]
[whispering] Oh, yeah. Like this.
Together.
Yeah.
You are what I need, Rubí.
I've been watching you all these months you've been by my side.
And I've realized there's a great magnetism between us.
We're polar opposites.
You're the love,
the sweetness,
the protection that I need.
You're the home,

LOS CACTUS GAS STATION
[tense music fades out]
What the fuck, Coral?
You're saying nothing? Not one fucking word of explanation?
[panting] I don't know.
Didn't you see Romeo's daughters were there?
No, I didn't see.
-[Greta] Just drop it. -I won't drop it.
Why the hell were you wearing headphones? Explain it.
I don't know! I didn't see them! Get off my back!
-[crying] -[sinister music playing]
[tap running]
[gasping]
[gags]
[retching and spitting]
[Greta] Don't get mad at her, Wendy.
She didn't do it on purpose. She said she didn't see the girls.
But Romeo has seen us.
Our plan is shot to hell.
-[toilet flushes] -[pants]
Can't either of you see it?
It was our only option to walk away from this.
The only one.
Murder Romeo
by surprise.
[Wendy] She ruined everything, because now he knows we're here.
[Wendy] And he's gonna have his hit men looking for us. And they will find us.
[Coral] As I listened to Wendy say that I had screwed up the plan,
I realized that I had actually screwed up a whole hell of a lot more than that.
I had exploded something between the two of us forever.
That was our moment of no return.
[sinister music stops]
[phone ringing]
-Los Cactus, can I help you? -Hello, good afternoon.
I have a package for Greta. I called her house, but she's not there.
They said she works at your gas station.
What Greta? Greta Braun?
[tense music playing]
Yes. Yeah, yeah.
Nah, she doesn't work here anymore. Sorry, man.
Well, thank you very much. Have a good day.
Hello, good afternoon. I'm calling for a Greta Braun, please.
I have a package for her.
I've been told she's staying with you.
Hello, good afternoon. Look, I have a package for Greta Braun.
[Moisés] B-R-A-U-N. Braun.
Okay, thank you.
[Moisés] Hello, good afternoon. I'm looking for a Greta Braun.
Yes, I'm calling to speak with Greta Braun.
I was told this is where she's staying.
[tense music building]
[tense music fades out]
[whispering] You're beautiful… Rubí.
But of course… [sniffs]
…we can't be a real family unless we get married.
Hey. Shh. What's wrong? No.
I know what you're thinking. No, no, no, no.
You think about all the debt that you owe me
and about our past, but no.
I'll forgive you.
I'll give you cash. It will be communal assets.
For your papa.
We'll go with my girls to Santo Domingo to meet your family. What do you think?
You know what we're going to do
to make it all much more natural?
We're going to have a little one.
[Romeo breathing heavily]
How beautiful.
It's gonna be wonderful to be a family.
[tense music playing]
We're going to ambush that embryo today and every night from now on.
Until we get you pregnant.
[phone buzzing]
[tense music building]
-[Romeo grunts] -[shrieks]
-[Romeo breathing heavily] -[groans]
-[phone ringing] -[tense music stops]
Why the landline phone?
[phone continues ringing]
There they are.
It's them, and they wanna know if I'm here.
Go answer. Answer and say, "Romeo's gone."
-[panting] -[dance music playing in background]
-Hello? Who's this? -[Moisés] Rubí, put Romeo on.
It's Moisés.
Ah!
[grunting]
[Romeo breathing heavily]
Moisés.
Romeo, I know where the girls are.
They're in the bungalows at Azul Tropical. Near La Caleta.
Good. Stay on the line.
I'll get Beefcake and Darwin to help you murder those evil bitches.
[dance music gets louder]
Darwin! Beefcake!
[dance music continues in background]
Moisés?
It's Rubí.
-What's wrong? -Romeo killed your mother.
[tense music playing]
He put her in a freezer.
And when you told him you wanted to see her,
he sent us to defrost her and put makeup on her.
And then we took her to that old folks' home
where a client of the club works.
What the fuck are you saying, Rubí?
I went to the nursing home to see my mother. She was alive.
No, no, no, no. It was me. It was me in there.
I was connected to the computer, the one that shows the vital signs.
And I could hear you telling her that Christian had been killed
and that to give him strength, you buried him next to your father
because they both had a pretty fucked-up ticket to Heaven.
-That's what you said, right? -Why the fuck should I believe you, Rubí?
Because… because he also killed Christian.
The girls only shot him in the belly.
Then Romeo brought your brother here to the club
and had him here for 11 hours, bleeding to death.
And then he took him to the road and left him there to die,
like an animal, like a dog.
He lied. He told you it was them because he wanted you to murder them.
But it's a lie. It's a lie, a big lie. You see, he's the killer.
He's the one you have to kill, and-- Wait.
Understand?
[tense music continues]
[starts engine]
[tense music building]
[melancholic music playing]
[Moisés] I wanna see my mother.
I need you to do something.
[Moisés] I couldn't believe Rubí's story.
It was impossible to think that the man I thought was my brother,
the one who spoke to me about the forgiveness of Jesus Christ,
was really Satan.
The man who made me believe that family was the most important thing of all
had just left my mother dead and frozen.
[Romeo] Put this on.
[monitor beeping]
Christian is dead, Mama.
I buried him with Papa,
to give him strength.
They'll both have a fucked-up ticket to Heaven.
[Moisés] While I was jumping on the bed with his daughters,
he left my brother to bleed out for 11 hours.
Romeo had done all that to turn me into his pathetic toy.
Am I gonna end up like Christian?
[action music playing]
[Moisés] It was not resentment that led me to change everything, but that evidence,
that Satan was dangerously deranged, and I was his best work.
[suspenseful music playing]
[suspenseful music stops]
Everything's in place, Moisés.
Just 20 minutes left to live for those whores.
Moisés?
[Romeo] Moisés!
[glass shattering]
[baby cooing]
He's Gina's.
She's dead.
I'm sorry about Gina.
Now, listen here.
I would need two days to explain the shit that just happened to me.
But we don't have time,
so you'll have to take my word for it.
In a few minutes, two goons will come through that doorway,
and they're gonna blow your fucking heads off.
So either you come with me, or you die.
And why should we believe you?
Because if I wanted to kill you, I would have.
So what do you know, the game has changed.
Now I'm the one who's gonna kill Romeo.
He murdered Gina.
But he also murdered my mother
and my brother.
So this little twist of destiny puts you on the same side as me now.
[tense music playing]
What if you wanna return us to the club,
instead of shooting us here and ending up in jail?
If you want to get us away…
you're gonna have to murder us.
[cocks gun]
You don't trust me?
[tense music building]
[cocks gun]
In less than a minute, bullets will be flying.
Wendy, he's telling the truth. We should go.
I also think we should leave,
make our way out of here, then see what to do.
[Coral closes zip]
They're here now.
Through the bathroom.
Come on, come on.
[whispers] The money.
-[Wendy] The money, the money. -Wendy. There's no time. Wendy!
[tense music building]
[tense music fades out]
[gunshots continue]
[panting]
[whispers] This way.
[Wendy panting]
[whispers] Duck down.
[tense music playing]
[Moisés] Duck down.
