HER MOTHER'S KILLER, SEASON 2
Martínez. Please, come on in.
Thanks for coming.
I had no choice.
Your statement got my bosses breathing down my neck.
Glad to hear it. How is the investigation going?
We interrogated the driver at the beach. Nothing indicates he was involved.
We have to look at everyone in Mejía's circles.
I can guarantee the killer is there.
We're investigating all possibilities.
All we know is that, after meeting with you,
Mrs. Elvira went to Mr. Rosales' home.
[intriguing music]
What?
Did you talk? Did you go to Rosales to ask what happened with Elvira?
[Martínez] Not yet.
We have to hurry and interrogate him. He was the last to see her alive.
[Martínez] I will. Don't you worry.
We identified the man in the sketch Mrs. Fabiola gave us.
His name is Javier Melgarejo.
He works for Paulina Peña.
I'm guessing she does all the dirty work for Mejía.
Mm-hm.
And Guillermo orchestrated the deaths of the Ortegas.
Is this Javier Melgarejo the man you saw at Elvira's house?
No. No, that guy was huskier.
[Martínez] Not very helpful. We can only speculate off of that.
We can't build a case without proof.
[Analía] Look.
That is crystal clear.
That is precisely why
it's important for you to let us keep helping.
We have to put Mejía back in prison.
[Sofía] I want to work together and help you win the presidency.
What's gotten into you?
I'm committed to working on the campaign
and winning together.
This is not a good time.
We cannot allow people to infiltrate the campaign again.
Who are you talking about?
[Sofía] Benji.
Thanks to whom?
Will I ever live that down?
What ever happened to second chances?
Let me prove to you that I can match and even surpass your esteemed Analía.
[tense music]
Doesn't matter what you have to say. Let's not kid ourselves.
It's okay. If you want to believe you hate her, I'll support you.
This is not the Sofía I know.
What happened to the little girl who was always pining for my approval?
She got tired of everyone treating her like a dumbass.
Truth is, I can be just as cunning and manipulative as you are.
Let me show you what I am capable of.
I'll make you proud that we share the same blood in our veins.
The same way I feel proud of the fact you're my dad.
Shame that you're all bark and no bite.
I do bite. And I won't let anyone screw you over.
Not even Carolina with all her craziness.
Sofía, Sofía, tread very carefully.
I don't want you ruining my marriage to Carolina.
No. Not at all. I'm not opposed to your marriage.
But I will be watching it like a hawk.
Because I know you'll screw it up sooner or later.
Just like with my mom.
I won't allow Pablo to continue meddling in my life.
If he keeps insisting Helena and Guillermo must stay apart,
he's going to get into legal trouble.
You know I'm here to help you with anything you need.
I know, Pereiro.
I know you've been an angel to me.
Unfortunately, I think as of today…
I no longer need you.
[doorbell rings]
[suspenseful music]
Must be Guillermo's driver. I'll be right back.
-Why are you here? -[Analía] To discuss Helena.
Let me finish. I don't think this is proper behavior from a woman
about to marry a candidate for the country's vice presidency.
-It's not proper. Let me finish. -You deserve nothing.
I came to discuss Helena.
Because, like I was saying, I love your daughter.
I would hate for her to lose her mom to Guillermo.
[scoffs]
What do you want?
I want you to listen.
Truth is, I know things have been very hard for you.
I'm sure Guillermo has promised you the world.
But don't get it twisted.
Guillermo is not a good man. He is a killer.
-He-- -You're at risk.
You're putting your daughter at risk too.
You really are the hateful type.
And if you came here to bad-mouth my future husband, take a hike.
Listen.
[tense music]
I'm sure Guillermo has put all sorts of ideas into your head.
And said all sorts of damning things about me. I know.
But please…
Please, listen to what I'm saying.
Like I said, Guillermo is a killer.
The moment you stop being useful, he'll dispose of you.
Helena too, while he's at it.
No more. No more! Don't you talk to me about my daughter.
Are you willing to lose Pablo and Helena? They're all you have.
They never abandoned you, despite all you did to them.
I will never lose my daughter.
Because she's mine. She's my own blood. Got that?
And Pablo, Pablo is a pitiable fool who fell into your clutches, you harpy.
It's like I'm talking to a brick wall.
You don't understand.
This is coming from whom?
A servant's daughter.
A servant who slept with Guillermo to win the jackpot.
Don't bring my mom into this.
And watch what you say.
Let me be clear.
If you hurt Pablo and Helena, even just this much,
you'll see what I'm truly capable of.
-Don't you threaten me. -No.
You don't scare me.
I'll let you mull over that.
[Guillermo] Can you let me prove to you I'm not the monster they said I was?
[Pablo knocks] Hi, sweetie.
-Hi, Dad. -How are you?
Good, you?
Good, good.
We didn't get to talk, what with yesterday's events.
So tell me.
How was it with Carolina and that guy?
It was good, actually.
He gave me some tickets to see my favorite band.
Helena, what is this?
You don't need anything from him. I don't get it.
-Dad, relax. -What do you mean "relax," sweetie?
Relax. I know.
I want to give my mom the chance to prove Mejía is exactly as she says.
-Do you think I would lie, Helena? -No.
Listen. Everything I've told you about Guillermo is true.
-I know. -Listen to me.
Everything I've told you about Guillermo is true.
I know, Dad.
And even worse things that aren't worth telling you about.
I always believed you, Dad.
You yourself told me to be mature and careful in my approach.
And I refuse to lose my mom again, you know that.
Me working against her would be unfair.
I wish to stand by her as her daughter.
[dramatic music]
You mean to tell me a journalist
dared to implicate Mr. Melgarejo in something this serious
without a shred of evidence?
[Martínez] I told you we can't tie him into our case investigation as of now.
However,
we received testimony confirming he looked into
Mrs. Ortega's preferences.
As you know, there is an ongoing investigation
regarding Mrs. Elvira's death, and her husband's murder, as well.
[Paulina] It's true.
Melgarejo was looking into things.
I asked him to look for Mariano in the criminal underground.
We're right in the middle of an electoral battle for this country.
Surely you understand we cannot risk the elections
over a man who only cares for his own vices.
I'll set up his interrogation.
Of course. He's willing to prove himself however you see fit.
[Martínez] Will you help?
You heard the lady.
Nothing to hide, nothing to fear.
Trust me, I'm more than interested in clearing up any doubts about my driver.
I bet one of Analía Guerrero's dirty political tricks was behind this.
[tense music]
If you'll excuse me.
How could you give Paulina a copy of that video?
[man] I had no other choice.
In life, the only thing we don't get to choose is dying.
So don't come to me with that bullshit right now.
The woman pressured me.
I had no other choice.
[Paulina] You showed Analía Guerrero
the fake video of Mariano Ortega you made with Rosales, correct?
Please let me go. I don't know what that means.
I'm sure you do. That is why I'll ask you a favor.
And you'll listen carefully. Otherwise,
I'll see to it myself that you end up behind bars.
[tense music]
What do you want? What do you need?
I want the video.
I need you to go with that man to erase any remaining traces of evidence.
Because you're clearly incompetent.
And you cannot be trusted.
You pathetic clown.
Sorry about that.
Shall we go?
Let's go.
I had no other choice but to give her the video.
The only copy in existence is in that woman's hands.
[Fernando] You really screwed it this time.
They screwed you over. Big time.
[tense music]
They're vermin.
Mejía and that weasel underestimate me.
I'll show them just how wrong they are.
You know you can count on me.
I know it's hard for you to see your siblings struggling again.
But I couldn't keep what Sofía said out of my head.
I don't think Guillermo is the only one who has tried to destroy your family.
You'll have to forgive me,
but to me it looks like…
Analía has caused you guys a lot of harm.
Well, I won't deny that, but you don't know her, Lau.
True, I don't know her.
But the idea that someone is dedicating her entire existence
to revenge is… well.
That's not someone I want to be around, to tell the truth.
Listen. I get where you're coming from, Lau.
But you don't know what she's been through.
Her mom was killed when she was just a girl.
-Really? -Yes, really.
Do you really think
that her, as an adult…?
Because we're not talking about a girl, but a grown adult.
Do you think that gives her the right to destroy everyone's lives?
I'll give you an example.
Juan Mario.
[dramatic music]
You know how it pains me to see all he's going through.
You know how much I care about him.
Remind me what she did to a good man with a kind heart?
Took advantage and manipulated him.
She took advantage of his insecurities, preyed on his weaknesses.
And made him a, what?
What did he turn him into?
A loser.
A buffoon, a nobody.
Not only am I hurt, I'm also worried.
Because I don't know that he'll be able to dig himself out of this mess.
Well, that's what we're here for, we're going to help him.
And, like it or not, I'm helping Analía too.
With Mejía, there's just no way.
What he's done to us is awful,
but right now I'm more worried about that guy becoming president, Laura.
The whole country'd go down the shitter.
Our family, everything we've worked towards, down the shitter.
All of it! We can't let that happen.
We cannot allow it.
So I'm helping Analía, whether you like it or not.
[electronic music plays]
How much for the gin?
Sixteen, but twenty with tip.
[client 1] Thank you.
[Guillermo] You sound just like Analía.
She destroyed your life, subjected you to public ridicule.
I need an answer from you.
[tense music]
Will you listen to your dad and go to the media
to confess about your alcohol problems? Then go into rehab?
I'm perfectly aware of how hard it is to butt heads with that tyrant.
Let's do this, fast and easy, and get away from all this.
I know it's hard to admit you have alcohol problems.
No, no. You're quite wrong. I can't admit to problems I don't have.
I'm not a drunkard, or an alcoholic, simple as.
-You know what-- -[Analía] Sorry.
-Sorry, let's go. -What is it?
[Analía] Let's go.
-You're here under your family's orders. -[grunts] Enough!
My mom would never be okay with this.
So my oaf of a father made the order. Where is he?
[electronic music plays]
-Another double, please. -[waiter] Coming up.
-[client 1] One beer. -[waiter] On it.
[client 2] Double whiskey, please.
One beer over here.
Thanks.
Couldn't help noticing that sour look of yours.
Carmen González.
I'm a pro at listening to my clients' problems.
I'm like a psychologist.
Except cheaper.
-[client 3] One cocktail, please. -Thank you, pal.
But I'm not in the mood to make friends today.
And I don't need any sweet nothings from women.
[Carmen] Relax.
I won't take it personally.
I know that hatred isn't for me.
[Juan Mario] Fetch one more.
So they broke your heart?
[waiter] Carmen.
Can you come here for a second?
[Carmen] I'll leave you to it, with this.
Do you know who your client is?
No.
That sprout is Guillermo Mejía's son.
How do you know that?
I watch the news.
But since I know you live under a rock,
I'm letting you know.
Those people are loaded.
So, go for it.
Go for it. That's the solution to all your problems.
Trust me.
-[client 4] You owe me some tequila. -Sorry. On it.
[client 2] My whiskey?
Thanks for the tip. Whiskey and tequila!
Thanks.
So you were saying. Broken heart?
Or what was it?
[intriguing music]
[footsteps approach]
[Guillermo] Are you okay?
Analía came to my place and tried to beat me up.
What did you say?
[mysterious music]
She told me you were a monster.
To be careful because at any moment you'd kill me or Helena.
-Do you believe her? -Of course not.
I know that woman is no good. And… I know Analía hates us.
She told me to step away from Pablo, to stop fighting with him for Helena,
and spoke very poorly of you. I tried to defend you
and she lunged at me like a wild animal, trying to hit me.
Oh, honey.
Listen.
Don't… don't you worry. I regret things ever went this far.
But we'll strike back where it hurts them most.
Pablo and Analía will pay with blood. And you, Helena and I will be a family.
No one will stop us.
Do you trust me?
Of course I trust you.
Thanks.
It means a lot to me.
[Paulina] Her name is Carmen González.
She works at a bar and used to date a drug addict who died from an overdose.
-And that sucker left with her. -Yeah.
He will always be a loser.
Tell your guy to keep tabs on her.
-I want to know all about that woman. -Okay.
As for the sucker, he'll spiral, they'll declare him legally incompetent,
and then I'll take over his life.
And it will be Analía's fault for being the one to rekindle his vices.
So it was written, so it shall be.
Did you do what I asked?
Yes, truly an eagle-eyed informant. Everything's ready.
[unsettling music]
Good old Mónica didn't want to listen. Look at her now.
Colombian journalists really bought into the myth of being the fourth
branch of government, huh.
What a hoot, huh?
-Mijo, tell Carolina to get a move on. -[man] Sir.
Later.
[man] Did you get my dough?
No, no. I still can't get all you're asking from me.
Not my fault your husband burned through all that shit.
My patience is running thin.
You have 24 hours to get me the money,
or else you'll have company.
Oh, don't be like that. Look, I promise I'll pay you all of it. Please.
You've been warned.
I'll be here same time tomorrow.
[eerie music]
-Girl, are you abandoning me? -[Carmen] Good morning, baby boy.
Hello.
[Carmen] Hello.
Hangover hit you hard, huh?
Yes, uh, I'm not doing too hot. Hey, tell me.
Yesterday, was I bad?
Do you have video?
No.
In fact, you were a gentleman.
What's more…
I enjoyed every second of it.
[intriguing music]
Well, that's great, glad to hear it.
I mean, it's not that I don't remember. Thing is…
Listen, I have this…
strange thing about you.
It's the strangest thing.
For whatever reason, I seem to enjoy spending time with you.
Don't ask me why.
[laughs]
Well, it makes me happy to hear that.
That's what it's about. Feeling comfortable with each other.
-What can I get you? A glass of water? -Well…
With this thirst, I'll even drink from the tap.
I'll get it.
[intriguing music continues]
Excuse me, this is my show. You can't make me interview him.
Your show is part of this channel which is famous for its integrity.
We have an obligation to show both sides.
If you refuse to do the interview,
it would be a highly unprofessional move that would put our image at risk.
[Guillermo] Good morning, how's everything? Good?
Good morning, how are you?
Fist bump, good morning.
What's up, man? Peachy?
-Diego. -Hi, Guillermo. How are you?
Great, how's it going? Thanks for the invitation.
My pleasure. We're about to start. Pardon me.
Phony.
[tense music]
Are there any chairs, by any chance…?
Get the lady a chair, please.
I'll wait for you there.
The district attorney called my boss
and ordered a disciplinary investigation to be carried out on me.
Allegedly, for using my position for influence
and for involving third parties.
Under what charges?
Taking bribes to sabotage Rosales' campaign.
And did anyone know you were helping me?
Aside from the three of you,
that guy who did that sketch for me, but I'm fairly certain it wasn't him.
But it must've been somebody.
What's with the look?
Someone did it. They're going to use that information
against me, which means, it'll blow up in Pablo's face.
Mejía is hell-bent on taking the presidency.
[scoffs] And if that comes to pass,
we better start looking for hideouts. I'm getting antsy.
Uh, we'll have to go full-on Robin Hood mode again.
On the legal front, it's a mess. We can't do anything legally.
What do you mean? Quit it. We discussed this.
-[Analía] Not happening. Not happening! -But he--
[intriguing music]
If we have to play dirty, so be it.
[Toto] No.
On today's show from The Truth,
please welcome the vice presidential candidate
for the Democratic Force Party, Guillermo León Mejía.
[Guillermo] Thank you for inviting me.
Truth is, it wasn't an invitation.
From what I gather, you're here because you asked.
It seems some of my comments regarding your candidacy
during our last broadcast got to you.
Yes, that's right, Mónica. And just liked you said on the show,
I was convicted.
It was a wrongful conviction, which you failed to mention,
locking me up for many years over a crime I didn't do.
You also failed to mention
how my innocence has been proven without a doubt.
Regardless, I'm not here to stir up sour memories
that have affected me as much
as they've affected my family, whom I love dearly.
And on behalf of all of those who have been wrongfully convicted,
I decided to, as honestly and cleanly as possible,
-tackle my adversaries head-on… -Thank you.
[Guillermo] …public forum.
Now,
every family has its problems.
And mine… is no exception.
I say this with a heavy heart,
but very responsibly,
that my daughter Analía Guerrero
was behind this so-called investigation carried out by this show
regarding the presidential candidate debate.
And now you've decided to invoke the murder
of our beloved friend Elvira de Ortega to incite
further suspicion surrounding the mystery of her husband Mariano's death.
[tense music]
This conspiracy…
because, let's face it, it's a conspiracy,
uh… spearheaded by Analía,
aims to put Jaime Rosales' campaign at risk
to the benefit of Pablo de la Torre's campaign.
[Helena] Did Analía really do that?
[Mónica] We have our own sources…
Now do you see why I don't want you near Guillermo?
-He got into your head after one night. -I only asked you a question.
Analía is taboo. You get so riled up.
Helena, please.
[Guillermo] Mónica, it's a shame you don't see it.
You're clearly being used.
And, sadly, you have been very naive.
We're running our own investigation.
And with all those suspicions… Mijo, if you please.
If you'd be so kind.
Thanks.
For me, it was…
vital to prove the innocence of the driver
of my lawyer and colleague Paulina Peña.
That's why we've put him at the disposal of justice.
[intriguing music]
And so far absolutely nothing has been found
linking him to any of the reckless claims
made on this show.
No, no. The claims we make on this show are built off a solid foundation.
Everything said on here has been confirmed and corroborated.
Great, wonderful. Then you should have no problem
telling the country, with full transparency,
what some of the sources you've sworn to protect really are.
I, for one, can back up every single one of my claims.
This man…
was a witness, who provided a description
of my lawyer Paulina Peña's driver.
His name is Wilfredo Hernández. He was close friends with this other man.
Antonio Ariza, also known as "Toto."
Who lived in the very house
my daughter Analía was raised in from a very young age,
which she then used over the following years
to infiltrate my presidential campaign. Now, take note.
I'm not vilifying him. I get him.
I know he had a troubled childhood, just as much as my daughter Analía.
This son of a bitch.
[tense music continues]
We have a mole.
They fed them all this info.
[Guillermo] Turns out their sketch of Melgarejo
was made inside this woman's office.
Fabiola Contreras,
who then hired a working woman.
A prostitute, to be clear.
An ugly and inappropriate term,
but that was who they hired to testify against Mr. Melgarejo.
Now it's worth pointing out
that Mrs. Contreras,
a so-called "lawyer" of dubious character, was kicked out of my campaign by me
on account of all the apt… sorry, all the acts of corruption
she was involved in.
Taking all of this into account, I have a lot of questions.
Were you extorted?
Truth is, I doubt it.
I know you.
I know you're an honest woman who cannot be bought out.
Listen, Mr. Mejía. You're twisting the facts.
Things are not at all how you've presented them. No.
Let us speak with full honesty.
Let's tell the country
what this is all about, what's behind the curtain,
and why you've decided to help Analía Guerrero.
Sound good?
I've made some mistakes throughout my life.
And while in prison, I came to understand
I have not apologized nearly enough
for some things that I've done.
That's why I'm here today,
to face them head-on,
and try to fix things somehow.
Today. With the country's eyes on me.
Please forgive me for all the harm I've done to you, Mónica.
I should've never gotten involved with you in a relationship outside my marriage
and made you my mistress.
Listen, Mr. Mejía. This is inappropriate. We're live.
Carolina, my love. Please, come here.
There we go.
I guess we're out of chairs, so please, take a seat.
Uh…
[tense music]
I want you to bear witness to…
this public conversation.
Because you taught me people can have second chances.
Thank you for that.
And thank you for opening your heart up to me knowing
full-well that I've made mistakes.
Carolina and I have no secrets, and we never will.
That's why, with her by my side…
I'm here to say I'm truly sorry
for hurting you.
I don't know if you'll ever forgive me,
all I ask…
All I ask from you, Mónica,
is to not put your career and talent at risk just to enact your revenge on me.
-No, this is-- -[woman] Cut the feed!
[exhales]
I hope you enjoyed your last-ever broadcast.
[musical sting]
Shall we go, love?
He caught Mónica off guard.
It's obvious why he did it.
-Relax, Froggy. Temper your rage. -[yells] How do you expect me to relax?
You want me to relax? He is destroying our lives!
Don't you get it?
He's hitting us harder each time, from every possible angle.
He screwed Juan Mario, ended Benji and Sofía's romance.
Used Carolina to ruin Pablo.
How many casualties?
-[Fabiola] Too many. -[Analía] Oh. Relax.
[tense music]
Relax?
[cell phone rings]
Where's the phone?
[phone continues ringing]
[Jaime] I need to talk to you. It's for both our sakes.
Rosales?
I'm sending you my location.
I'll be waiting.
-Rosales wants to see me. Right now. -What?
Girl, what are you thinking?
You know that man is dangerous. Don't run off like a headless chicken.
Froggy, listen to me.
You can't go see Rosales on a whim. What's wrong with you?
I know who Rosales is. I know him perfectly well.
And I understand the risks.
But I won't lose this opportunity to screw Mejía over.
Not a chance.
[intriguing music]
-Go. -[Fabiola] Run, come on, hurry.
[Toto] Get going. I'll… tag along.
-Excuse me. One photo, please? Thanks. -Yes, of course.
-Thank you. -Why, thank you.
My pleasure.
-[man] Mr. Mejía, may I get a photo? -Go ahead.
Here, honey. Come, come.
You're in this too.
-Thanks. Thanks so much. -Thank you.
Hm?
[woman] Mejía!
[Guillermo] Hello?
You're more of the same.
Corruption, bribery, backwards progress.
Colombia needs real change.
[Guillermo] Hi.
I agree completely.
We must unite to bring real change. What's your name?
-Milagros Fernández. -Milagros.
What a lovely name. It symbolizes hope, and faith
we human beings have for building a better world.
I'm Guillermo León Mejía, and from what I can gather,
you've heard of me.
[intriguing music]
Have you heard about our policy proposals for young people?
No, and I'm not interested.
That's odd. You belong to a very bright generation.
Skeptical, and well-informed.
Would you agree to a little bet with me?
What's that?
Mijo.
[clears throat] This is our government plan.
Read it carefully.
If you read it and you find it's not to your liking,
vote for somebody else, but always vote with knowledge.
I ask of you
to give what I'm building here with Jaime Rosales a fair chance.
Who, I assure you, will be the youngest president in this country's history.
Okay. I admit I'm not very informed about your proposals.
I'll read it.
[Guillermo] One more thing, Milagros.
It's not change for the sake of change.
Not like past governments, or even current ones.
It's about swapping out what doesn't work.
And improving on what does.
-Do you agree with that? -Absolutely.
-A pleasure. -Thanks, Milagros.
Thank you.
[Guillermo] Nice girl.
Hello. We find ourselves today at a shop beloved by Colombians
where many of us purchased our first business suit.
Some of us still frequent it.
Carolina thinks I need a wardrobe refresh. Go figure.
I think she's right.
But first we want some company.
So we're here with Johny and Alonso,
along with all your followers, to pick out your new style.
-Well, it's up to you guys. -Yes… Welcome.
Let's see.
[upbeat music]
Well, it's your choice to make.
Cast your votes.
Because in this government,
the people's voice is akin to God's.
Your stepdad looks so cool.
You can tell he adores your mom. What a power couple.
You've got it good. You're geared for success.
Daughter of the president or vice president's stepdaughter.
Is Guillermo as fly in person as he is on TV?
Well…
I prefer Pablo.
Your dad is very handsome. My mom and her friends adore him.
[Helena] Come over whenever. I'll introduce you.
No, no fair. Well, only if we head to your mom's afterwards
so I can meet Guillermo.
Deal.
-I'll bring you the rest. -Thanks.
That girl you brought on, Milagros, gave a stunning performance.
She's a natural.
Between us, Milagros is not her name.
-I came up with that name. -[eerie tone]
The country loves this stuff.
We need to prop up my father's image as a man of faith, right?
[Guillermo] While also being in touch with the youth. Open minded.
You're something else.
I feel very lucky to be with you.
No. I'm the lucky one.
That's why I look after you.
And I won't let anyone hurt you.
So that Analía lady
is really going to regret messing with you.
[Jaime] They set me up.
I was tricked.
Ever since Mejía was in jail,
Paulina has been on my tail, always offering favors.
I made the mistake of taking her up on one of those favors.
Mariano Ortega was murdered.
[Analía] What do you have to do with it?
The favor I asked was for…
Mariano to be out of the game.
He wouldn't let me get anything done in the party.
You haven't answered what your relation to the murder is.
I was a fool, and I…
fell into her trap.
I was used.
The day Mariano died,
-Paulina came to my house to threaten me. -[shutter clicks]
She told me I had to…
hide the location where Mariano died.
I refused.
[intriguing music]
But she made it clear to me that I had sold my soul to the devil.
No. You don't understand.
From this moment on, you're strictly under Guillermo's orders.
[Jaime] Don't misunderstand.
I am no one's lapdog. Much less a convict's.
Do you want to end your political career
for being an accomplice to Mariano's murder?
[intriguing music continues]
[Jaime] I need you to get Mariano off my back, fast.
I can't stand that old codger.
I didn't ask for murder.
I don't know. This is evidence to the contrary.
Have a nice day.
[Jaime] I had no idea they would assassinate him.
Had I known, I would've never asked Mejía for help.
They forced me to make statements to the media the next few days…
on Santiago Castiblanco.
Who I presume to be dead.
Elvira was at your place on the day of her murder.
Did Mejía pressure you to kill her too?
I beg your pardon?
How can you say that? No, no.
Elvira knew Mariano was like a father to me.
He was…
my godfather in politics.
Despite us butting heads over Mejía, we loved each other very much.
Elvira told me
she knew Mejía was Mariano's killer.
Oh, please. Stop feeding me lies.
Why am I here? What do you want from me?
I need you to help me gather evidence.
-To prove my innocence in the murders. -I won't help an accomplice to murder.
That's not true. I'm innocent. I can prove it to you.
I know you're not as dim-witted and stupid as you seem.
You can clearly tell that Mejía is eliminating everyone
who gets in the way of him winning the presidency.
And you're up next.
[tense music]
-I know. -Mm-hmm.
But I can fight back.
Oh, yeah? Just like Santiago, Elvira, and Mariano did?
Good luck with that.
Now, there is an easy way out for you.
To stop endangering yourself.
I'm all ears.
Quit the campaign.
Go on with your life.
Peacefully.
No. Quitting is not an option.
It's been too costly for me to have made it this far.
Then we have nothing more to discuss.
Good luck with Guillermo. You'll need it.
Wait.
I'm certain that the two of us can take him down.
If we join forces,
we can bring him down. I'll help.
I have the means to finish him.
Okay.
Then I have another proposal.
You get me solid evidence against Mejía in the next few days.
If you don't, I will be forced
to publish a video of a false Mariano exiting the hotel.
If you're implicated in the murder,
you'll regret not quitting the campaign trail.
