I have things to do and commitments to keep.
Your condition can't be cured in one month.
You need a lot of rehab.
-Will I be able to sing? -Don't even try it.
The views you and Nora have regarding our agreements
with Victor Frenk are putting my personal business at risk.
Send me with them.
Charro de Oro was your father? So you knew Chela Montes!
-No. -She was a close family friend.
What kind of help does your friend need?
Her business was closed down.
Maybe you could help her.
What's this?
It's a camera Pepe gave me as a gift.
You should take up photography again.
I need to start working
or the bank will take everything I have.
What if you managed him?
I'd be honored.
God, please help me! Don't let them hurt me!
Enrique...
I don't know what's going on, but you have to help me!
<i> What's wrong, Pepe?</i>
Are you okay?
No, Enrique.
I don't know what's going on.
I hear noises... and I saw some awful things on the ceiling.
Pepe, listen to me.
You're safe. Magos won't leave you.
<i> You have to help me!</i>
You have nothing to fear.
But I can hear and see them! Tell me what to do!
Okay, calm down.
I'll pick you up tomorrow and we'll go meet with Magos.
The earlier the better.
Please!
<i> Calm down.</i>
Try to get some rest, Pepe.
<i> Pepe, they're trying</i> <i> to keep you drinking</i>
<i> so you'll ruin</i> <i> your career.</i>
Thank you for coming, Enrique.
I'm sorry. I'm not even dressed yet.
It's okay. I'm here now.
Were you able to get some rest?
No. If only.
I had a terrible night.
Don't worry.
I brought some herbs to make you a soothing tea.
And guess what else?
One of Grandma's home remedies.
Honey, lemon and other herbs that'll clear the phlegm.
Thank you for always being on top of things.
Don't mention it. I'm here for you.
We're here to support each other.
How is Anel's trip going?
We spoke yesterday and she sounds happy.
Really?
You'll probably think I'm meddling,
but I was surprised when I heard she went to LA...
you know, given your condition.
Anel is a good woman.
She needs to live her life and keep working.
She can't put everything on hold just to look after me.
Yes, but why couldn't she ask you to tag along?
Unless she wants to be alone over there.
Let's try the remedies you brought.
I'll go get a spoon.
Right. Jose?
You know you can trust me, don't you?
Where are you off to in such a rush, Gonzalo?
Well, I'm...
A camera?
Pepe gave it to me, remember?
Oh, that's right!
You used to take such beautiful pictures.
What are you going to do with it?
Take pictures of the neighborhood.
Or are you going to pawn it somewhere?
I found it while I was cleaning my room
and I felt like taking up photography again.
Really? How nice!
I haven't taken your picture 'cause this is old film.
You'd look like a star if I did!
You're beautiful, Mom.
Gonzalo's a grown man.
He needs to take responsibility for himself.
He lacks the motivation.
Gonzalo.
Come here.
Here.
Develop that film and buy some new ones.
What's this? Is this my lucky day or what?
Run along.
No! What are you doing?
You can't do that!
Maria?
Are you...?
That's right. Gabriel Correa.
When Ancona told me about your situation, I decided to help.
This location is perfect! Do you have the keys?
I don't usually meet with anyone this early,
but Enrique said it was urgent.
I'm sorry, but I saw some awful things.
I was terrified.
Dark entities.
Dark entities? What is that?
Beings created by your enemies' hatred and envy.
They're upset because you overcame the pneumonia.
Their negative vibes created these beings.
What enemies could I possibly happy?
I sing about love!
It's human nature, my dear.
And you welcome everyone, even those you shouldn't.
What can I do?
The cards will tell us.
We shouldn't be here. I don't want any more trouble.
Nora said you wanted to make me an offer, sir.
First of all, don't call me "sir."
No need to be so formal.
Secondly, don't worry about the fines.
It's taken care of.
Everything is up to date and in order.
And third, yes.
I want us to be partners.
Partners?
How much do you want?
Whatever you think it's fair given all that I've done.
This seems very fishy.
How'd you settle the fines so quickly?
Sir, did you...?
Maria, don't be so formal.
Relax, I paid every dime and it's all on the up and up.
Maybe I skipped out on making a few copies,
but it, along with the remodeling project,
is part of my investment.
Remodeling project?
That's right!
We have to update everything.
This will be the area's new happening bar.
Don't worry, I'll handle everything.
I'm already working to get our liquor license.
Liquor? Goodness me!
Can you picture me working at a dive?
No!
Maria, it was just a figure of speech.
We're going to update our look and hours of operation.
Don't worry about a thing.
Let me handle it.
It'll look great.
Be very careful, my dear.
They caused your pneumonia.
I'll give you something to protect you.
If you hear noises or see shadows again,
recite the Lord's Prayer seven times.
Keep living your life.
Veracruzana will lessen the strength of the bad vibes
your enemies are sending your way.
What do you make of the camera? It's cool, isn't it?
It's one of the best.
Did you know they used a similar model
to take the very first pictures of the moon?
Yeah, the Swedes have always been sharp.
Let's get back on topic.
Do you want it? I won't charge too much.
You should. It must've been expensive.
Nah, it was a gift from Pepe. I don't use it anymore.
Besides, I'm strapped for cash.
If I'm being honest, you asked for it.
Come on, I was born cursed.
I can't seem to get past things or get my act together.
I really don't get it.
Why are you set on hiding your talents?
Listen, I know you're talented...
and that's why I'm going to help you.
You're going to buy the camera?
Something better and longer lasting.
My friend Manuel needs a photographer for his venue.
Oh!
Okay.
Honey, I'm home!
How is my favorite sick person doing?
Did you miss me?
Yes, I missed you...
and I'm still sick, but thank you for coming back earlier.
Oh, I was happy to do it.
I'd finished the job already.
I was just spending time with my younger brother.
Besides, I'm far more useful here.
How do you feel?
Well... so-so, Anel.
I'm worried because I can't sing.
A sudden sadness overwhelms me... and I lose my breath.
Sweetheart, you have to relax.
And you also need bed rest.
Well, that's another thing.
I can't sleep...
because I see things.
Things? What things?
I see some horrible things on the ceiling, Anel.
Diabolical images and figures!
That's all in your head, Pepe.
It's what you get for hanging out
with Enrique and that witch.
No, Anel!
Enrique's been nothing but a great friend to me.
I'm sorry, honey. I know he has.
Would you like me to make you something to eat?
I know!
I'll make mole de olla! It's your favorite.
Lore!
Hey, what's wrong?
I'm sorry, but I'm here to see Mr. Abel.
If I take any longer, I'll have to eat later than usual.
-Excuse me. -Come on!
You're too much. I just wanted to say hello
and tell you we're going to be working together.
I'm going to work at El Patio.
Oh. That's great.
Congratulations.
Well, do you know if you're the baby's father or not?
You sure are blunt, huh?
No. He's not mine.
I'm sorry?
Do you know anything about your business with Mr. Abel?
Yes, I did some research
and there's a woman who knew my parents when I was conceived.
She lives in Cuernavaca and her name is Chela Montes.
That's close! When are you going to see her?
I don't know. I'm very busy with work.
Excuses!
If you actually cared, you'd make the time.
If you want... I can go with you.
That would be awfully nice of you.
Yup!
I'll think about it.
I'll let you know.
Thank you.
Alright, then. Bye.
I have great news for you.
We could use it right now.
I'm off to a great start
these first few days as your manager.
And not just for you, Pepe. I'm talking about you, girl.
Really?
You're going to be working together on the TV show<i> Us Art.</i>
Together!
Oh, I can't believe it!
Pepe will sing and you'll bring a feminine touch to the show.
That's great!
Thank you, Fanny! That's just what we needed.
I'm glad you said that because we haven't time to waste.
Filming starts this week.
You truly are a genius, Fanny.
<i> Your ailment can't be cured</i> <i> in one month.</i>
You need a lot of rehab.
-Will I be able to sing? -Don't even try it.
