LADY ALTAGRACIA
After reviewing the file
and taking the witnesses' testimony
and the defense and prosecution's arguments
into consideration,
I shall now issue my verdict.
Great.
Now she'll sentence them.
Given the confidence the state has placed in me...
and because I'm unable to find enough evidence
against the defendants,
I dismiss this case.
The defendants should be released at once.
No!
No, no... This can't be happening.
Valeria doesn't know what's coming her way.
I'm going to destroy her!
Altagracia, come on.
Don't defend her!
I guess I have to show them what I'm really capable of.
Valeria is digging her own grave.
You have just heard the judge's verdict.
The defendants have been cleared and they will be released today.
They won! They're free!
It's a miracle!
I don't know how, but Saul and Monica did it.
They beat Altagracia!
I have some news for you, but you must remain calm.
Does it have to do with Monica?
The judge declared Monica and Margarita not guilty.
Justice has been done!
Thank you, God!
I didn't do it.
I didn't do what Altagracia ordered me to do.
I didn't, and now she's going to come for me.
She'll come for me and she'll make me pay for...
She's coming for me!
Calm down.
Altagracia won't hurt you. Over my dead body!
I'll make sure she doesn't.
Then add two more names to her list.
Don't think that way. Don't you trust me?
I do, but I don't trust the thugs she'll send for me.
Let's go!
Diego is waiting for me.
Calm down.
Happy now? I did what you asked me to.
Thank you!
Thank you.
For what?
For signing my own death sentence?
No, you did the right thing.
You did what you had to do.
You can count on me.
From now on, Lopez and I will protect you.
That won't help me. I went against Altagracia.
You have to trust me.
Nothing bad will happen to you or your baby.
Why did you tell him I'm pregnant?
Me?
Why did you tell him?
Because that baby is changing you!
Before the hearing, you were petrified.
Look at you now, though! You did the right thing!
I don't think it's a good idea for you to return home.
Find a hotel where she...
-A hotel? -Yes, that's right.
What are you talking about? I have a house.
I have a son and a life to get back to.
We have to keep you safe.
We have to keep you safe from your husband and Altagracia.
That treacherous and backstabbing bitch!
Valeria is a rat, so I'll treat her as such.
I'll send her to the sewers with the rest of her kind.
Calm down, Altagracia. That won't help at all.
Get a hold of Braulio.
I'm sure that fool has no idea what his dumb wife just did.
I'm busy now, Rafael.
Girls, thank you so much.
You were very kind...
and I'm going to miss you all.
We'll miss you two, too.
The girls on the third floor know that you sing beautifully
and that you pack a punch.
You know it.
You saw how she took on the Deputy.
We have to go now, but we promise to be in touch.
That's right. Don't doubt it for a minute.
I'll talk to my attorney so he'll get you all out of here.
Her attorney? He's her boyfriend.
Really?
My boyfriend...
I'll talk to him, though.
He'll review your cases and everything will work out.
You'll get out of here as soon as possible.
Thank you!
I want you to keep this.
You're going to need this watch.
-Thank you! -Don't mention it.
-Take care. -Thank you.
Come here!
Monica Hernandez?
Something's wrong. What's taking them so long?
Gustavo, have you heard from your contacts?
I'm on it. Give me a minute.
Hopefully Altagracia won't pull any strings
to keep them locked up.
We know she's capable of anything.
The door...
Are you okay, honey?
Yes!
I'm so glad.
Monica, please excuse me.
Justice has been served and you've been released.
Would you like to tell us about your story?
This was the biggest injustice I've ever been subjected to.
Innocent people shouldn't be locked up.
Do you have any idea who could be behind your arrest?
Yes.
I can think of one person.
This woman thinks she can bend the law at her will.
She couldn't this time, though! Some judges won't...
That's enough.
Her father is hospitalized and she has to go see him.
Yes, I want to see my father.
He and my supporters worked hard to ensure my release.
I'm especially grateful to my attorney.
Thank you.
No, thank you.
Thank you.
Braulio's car isn't around.
He's probably out.
Ma'am, I think you two should pack your bags and leave.
Leave? Where to?
I doubt Braulio is happy about what I did, but...
I think you should listen to Mr. Saul.
You should stay at a hotel
while we procure a police detail for your protection.
Lopecito, I really appreciate everything you've done,
but whatever happens next is a personal matter.
It's a family matter.
Diego, let's go inside.
You are an idiot, Valeria.
How could you?
You signed your own death sentence.
Ma'am, please show some respect.
Don't talk to my mother like that!
Stay out of it, boy.
I don't know who you are, and I don't care.
Get out of here. Leave us.
Mrs. Valeria is a lady.
She has a gentleman by her side.
She has a son, too.
I won't leave her alone with you, Altagracia.
What happened? What did Francisco say?
That we're paranoid
and that we're imagining that Altagracia is after us.
Did you tell him she's the woman you couldn't kill?
Yes...
He said that although he's never met her personally,
he's heard of Altagracia.
He finds it hard to believe
that she's the same woman we raped.
Damn it!
If he actually knew Altagracia,
he wouldn't dismiss us so readily.
I just witnessed her wrath, Daniel.
If she's this upset with Valeria
because she released Monica Hernandez,
I don't even want to imagine what she'll do to us.
Monica Hernandez?
So Altagracia did have her incarcerated.
Yes, but I won't waste my breath on that woman.
I only care about my family.
My wife... and my son.
What happened to you?
When did you grow a pair?
Diego, please go inside.
You couldn't even woo Isabela properly.
I'm glad, though.
I must admit that I was wrong. You're not good enough for her.
Ma'am, please show some respect.
I don't know who you are and I don't care.
Why don't you leave?
He's my assistant.
Lopecito, please leave.
Thank you for all your help, but please go home.
Your shift is over.
Diego, get in the house. Don't worry.
Don't worry. Nothing bad will happen.
Go on.
Lopecito, I'm your boss. Follow my orders.
Alone at last.
Altagracia, there was nothing I could do.
You know whom you're messing with, don't you?
I kept my cool because Diego was present.
Don't hurt me, please!
You know exactly what I do to those who betray me.
I'm going to start a task my men will complete.
No, don't touch me! I'm pregnant!
What's going on?
Who's there?
What do you mean, Dad?
Monica!
Dad!
-Dad! -You're finally here!
I didn't think I was ever going to hold you again!
It's so great to see you. Are you okay?
-Are you? -Yes, yes.
I'm fine, Dad. How are you?
You put up an act during the hearing, didn't you?
You can barely see anymore. You didn't recognize me!
Didn't Yesenia tell you that my vision is blurry?
- ¿YESENIA NO TE ADVIRTIÓ QUE VEO LAS COSAS BORROSAS?
Blurry vision isn't the same as going blind, Dad.
Tell me the truth. Are you blind?
I know you're crying.
Tears won't hurt me, Dad.
They won't hurt me either.
Crying tears of joy would never hurt me.
Oh, Saul!
I can't thank you for everything you've done.
Lazaro and I owe you.
No, not at all.
You know how much I care about Monica.
Yes.
I doubt Altagracia is very happy right now, though.
Yesenia, Altagracia stopped by my house
and she brought evidence proving that Braulio
was with my father when he died.
Really? What kind of evidence?
DNA evidence,
something that was found on my father's clothes.
It seems he and Braulio struggled...
or maybe they fought before he fell to his death.
Altagracia insists that she wasn't with them.
She claims she was with you.
I'm not surprised.
Altagracia would blame Braulio to save her hide.
Who knows where she got that evidence?
Who knows whom she paid to get it?
So you insist you weren't with Altagracia.
I already told you I wasn't.
I wasn't with Altagracia.
How many times do I have to say it?
You're lying.
No!
It's true.
If you hurt me, you'll hurt my baby too.
Braulio hasn't mentioned your pregnancy.
He doesn't know!
Our marriage is on the rocks and I didn't want him to know.
Whatever.
You should've thought of the child before letting Monica go.
I let her go because I was thinking of my baby.
You know what?
I don't want my children to be ashamed of me.
That's precisely why I don't want to work for you anymore.
I quit.
I decide when and where I get rid of useless people like you.
First, however, I want to make sure you're actually pregnant.
If you weren't, you'd be lying to me again.
You'd be twice the liar
and you'd receive twice the punishment.
Don't even think about hiding or taking off.
I'm going to keep a close eye on you.
From now on, you're going to live in constant fear.
You won't know when I'll make you pay for what you did.
Let's go.
Tell me the truth, honey.
I already told you that no one hurt me.
I'm fine.
My experience in prison wasn't that terrible.
Fine, let's pretend I believe you.
They might say I'm very ill,
but I can still deal with the challenges that come up.
Yes, but we don't have to overdo it.
What really gets to me is the uncertainty, Monica.
The uncertainty and the lies.
I want you to be very honest with me.
I want to know who set you up.
Dad...
Was it Gabino?
No, Dad. It's just that...
Tell me, damn it!
Don't you dare lie to me!
The disappointment alone could kill me.
Don't say that!
I didn't raise you to be a liar.
Tell me who set you up.
Was it Gabino or was it someone else?
It was Gabino under Lady Altagracia's orders.
