Bar Karma 1x04
"Double Blind"
How did you get in here?
- We need to talk.
This door was locked.
Santiago, please,
just listen.
Whatever you have to say, you
can say at the meeting in front
of my lawyers.
Welcome to Bar Karma.
Is this the meeting?
- No,
just a waiting area.
Um. Santiago always
was eccentric.
What can I get you?
- Paloma martini.
Expensive taste.
- The only kind worth having.
Bio-scan or do you
require another form of ID?
This expires in 2026.
Why does it matter?
That is 9 years from now.
She's from 2017.
Good work Pythagoras.
Enjoy.
I made it a double.
Future is looking pretty good.
So, that's your weakness,
woman with accents.
remains of missing Lucro
Pharmaceuticals CEO,
Enrique Guzman washed
up on a beach.
Police believed he comitted suicide.
He left his entire fortune
and his seat
on the Board of Directors to a
woman no one had ever heard of,
Marisol Tavares.
ooo, yeah,
aaaaah,oooooooo,
Yo-o-u-u will always
# reap what
you sow.
Aaah. Time travelling bar?
Huh. Now I have
heard everything.
Not quite everything.
- What now?
You're going to show me a
more old news footage?
Marisol, it can't be easy
to talk about Enrique.
He was a very
hated man.
Of course, because
all CEOs are evil.
We just create products
people need.
Generate jobs.
Pay a lot of taxes.
So, this man thinks
he's a CEO?
Tell me, if you're a CEO,
why are you in a bar and
not in an office?
That's a great question?
Either of you care
to take that?
Doug is on a bit of a
involuntary sabbatical.
You mean, like rehab?
What's the problem?
Drugs?
Poker.
- Enrique was a gambler, too.
Only, he used his
investors money.
Did he get caught?
- Of course.
He was facing 30
years in jail.
That's why
that's why he's no longer here.
With so many enemies, do
you think he really killed himself?
I think
I need the ladies room.
Come on, I'll, I'll show you.
So, a beautiful woman
walks into a bar?
Thoughts?
- Business as usual, Doug.
Maybe, she's here
to stop Enrique's death?
It doesn't quite work like that.
Enrique passed on
three years earlier
in Marisol's timeline.
She's here because she's
experiencing
a branching event, now.
We got to figure
out what that is.
I'll talk to her.
You ever wait for a woman
like that to
come out of the bathroom?
(Computer voice) Welcome,
Doug Jones from Finance First.
Is it 3 already?
Impressive isn't it?
This beauty is the pride
of our rain forest.
Or, at least, it was.
Medical science is
a demanding master.
What medical science?
Doug, sit.
I'm very excited to have your
magazine share Lucro's great discovery
with our friends
in the United States.
And, I'm excited to
hear all about it.
This transformative plant
will allow our company
to save countless lives,
by providing a cure for one of
the world's biggest killers.
Cancer? AIDS?
Obesity.
There's already a cure.
Diet and exercise.
But that's too hard,
especially
for you Americans,
no offense.
You get one shot of the
Graxico vaccine
derived from this plant,
eat churros, burgers,
you never get fat.
There's no way
that can be safe.
Stomach stapling,
liposuction, these
are the unsafe practices.
They're reactive solutions after
the disease has manifested itself.
Our approach is proactive.
This must be a nice
change for you.
Answering questions about a medical
breakthrough,
rather than your former CEO.
Enrique was a good friend.
I did not expect
this from him.
Although, it's no secret,
we suspect he was a victim
more than anything.
Do you think Marisol Tavares
is responsible
for Enrique's death?
- That is for the courts to decide.
But, you think she's guilty.
This is not the interview
I agreed to.
It's time for your
tour of the facilities.
Another time.
I have a deadline.
Hey!
- I wish you would knock.
Guess who I just met.
- No.
No?
- There are over 7 billion people
on the Earth, and we're
operating in multiple
timelines, so
the chance of me
successfully answering
is subatomic.
I just paid a visit to
Santiago Vega,
Lucro's CEO. - Did he
say anything about Marisol?
He said Enrique was a victim.
Marisol has more than
one death
lighting up on
our timeline.
Then, maybe, she
did kill Enrique
and she's
here because she's
going to kill
someone else.
That's a possibility.
What happened? - She left
before I could stop here.
And, we just a killer
get away.
What are you doing here?
- Santiago, please
I have a confession
to make.
I am not your priest.
It's not your
forgiveness I'm after.
You can not be here.
Get down!
What the hell are you doing?
- I thought someone was
trying to kill you.
This is yours.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Open it.
- No, not in front of him.
These images are private.
Were you recording us, just now?
I thought you would enjoy
a sexy surprise.
Open it, Marisol.
You're hurting me.
Hey, take it easy.
- You! Get out!
Go, before you
make things worse.
Security!
Well, Marisol was not
trying to kill Santiago.
She was trying to record him.
You think she's trying to
blackmail him? - Who knows?
But, if she's capable of
***, she's capable of anything.
Maybe, you were able
to stop it?
What does it say?
Crisis averted?
- Not by a long shot.
It seems the deaths
just keep multiplying.
What happened in Brazil?
Apparently, nothing good.
If we need to go back,
you're up.
That would be a disaster.
You can't screw up
anymore than I just did.
If I left this bar,
bad things would happen.
Not just to me,
but to anyone near me.
What does that mean?
Who told you that?
I'll have one of those.
Don't you ever miss
being out in the world?
This is where I
need to be.
Sometimes, when I'm
out there, I hate
to come back here.
I have to get back
to my life.
I need to find out
what happened right
before I got here.
Do you think I really
could have killed that girl?
He tried it.
Do you realize what
you have done?
People are going
to start dying.
And, you just dug
their graves.
(knocking on bathroom door)
Marisol, are you in there?
Where else would I be?
Marisol, look,
I'm sorry
(whispering) Why am I sorry?
- For breaking her device.
I didn't break it.
- You might as well have.
Marisol, I know
you're upset,
but we can't help you
unless you come out.
Marisol! I think I
was able to undo
some of the damage
on your device.
Did you really
think you fixed it?
Only one way to find out.
I thought that was
a video camera?
You really need
to get out more.
I don't think this
is working.
Oh, you are beyond help.
This is all about money.
- You said people would die
after your device
was destroyed.
Nice touch, giving me
the blame for that, too.
If I can not show you,
you will never believe me.
Perhaps, there's a more
reliable data source.
How long before the
symptoms begin?
Good. We can argue
environment, lifestyle, pollution.
How many deaths?
That is nothing. Legal has already
accounted for the settlement fees.
James, this is brilliant.
You will make me a
copy of this, yes?
I'm afraid that's impossible.
But, you see what
he's doing.
People are going to get hurt.
Some are going to die.
Let's see what else
the cards have to say.
Enrique.
I'm not in the
mood for this anymore.
No! I said, enough.
You killed Enrique didn't you?
- No, leave me alone.
Just admit it.
Just admit what you did.
Okay, I killed Enrique.
Is that what you want to hear?
I killed him.
But, I didn't stab him.
That is me
I'm Enrique.
Enrique is me.
Same mind.
Just in a woman's body.
I had the surgery
and I killed
Enrique forever.
Well, you clearly have one
hell of a plastic surgeon.
But, why would you go
through all that?
I was facing the rest
of my life in jail.
This was the only way
I could keep my money.
So, you did go there
to steal the money.
I went there to get
my money, yes.
It's been frozen for 3 years.
What, they didn't change
the passwords?
Access is granted through eye scans.
I still have the same eyes.
That obesity vaccine
is dangerous.
You have to let people know.
It is out of my hands now.
Santiago will discover
the security breach
and he will relocate
the damaging parts forever.
Without hard evidence,
I have nothing.
You still have
another option.
You could turn
yourself in.
Yeah, let your eyes
be the hard evidence.
No. No, no, no.
That is not possible.
Obesity is a big killer, too.
What about the lives it could save.
This report came out
five years later.
Coronary disease isn't
necessarily a death sentence.
People live with it.
Take medication.
Get pacemakers.
If you really believed that
you wouldn't have been
so upset about
your device breaking.
I'll be hated, demonized.
I'll loose my freedom.
I will be locked away forever.
You're going to have to
pay sooner or later.
Trust me. Someone's always
keeping tabs.
Good thing, it's time
for me to go.
I'll walk you out. You have
to leave through the back.
What is
this
place?
(gasping for breath)
(gasping continues)
How are you feeling?
What is wrong with you?
What did you do to me?
I needed to be sure you
understood the realities
of this disease.
How do you know you have
really have killed me, huh?
Are you a doctor?
You who sit there
on your high horse
lecturing about morality
and the truth,
when you know nothing
of the real world.
She is not trying to kill you.
She's only trying to help you.
It's all she does.
I couldn't breathe.
I could barely talk.
Imagine living in fear of moments
like that every day
for the rest of your life.
And, now, you have all
the information you need
to make the right decision.
It's not fair!
I'm not the one
making the drug.
Why should I suffer for
something I did not cause?
Every action has a ripple
effect, Marisol.
If you hadn't been
so greedy,
you wouldn't have had to
abdicate your position to Santiago.
I started
by wanting to cure
Alzheimer's
MS, Parkinsons,
but the money was in the
"quick fix" business.
Want to erase your wrinkles,
take a pill.
Want a tan,
take a pill.
I led this company
and Santiago
to this.
And, now you get to
lead again.
By example.
Come clean.
Take your punches.
How about one for the road?
Thank you.
Although I had breached Lucro
Pharmaceuticals securty system,
the result of my indiscretion
will save countless lives,
but I take full responsibility
for my action. And, I am
prepared to face the
consequences.
That is all.
Police are waiting in the wings
ready to escort
Enrique Guzman, now known as
Marisol Tavares, to prison.
Minutes before this press
conference started,
agents raided the Lucro
offices, where CEO,
Santiago Vega, was also arrested.
Why doesn't this
feel like a victory?
Remember earlier, all
those weak and broken lights,
Yeah. The multiple deaths.
Look now.
The lights represent lives.
That's what we accomplished.
Why aren't they all
lighting up?
Because, some people
will always look for
the "quick fix" even
knowing the risks.
But, at least now, they won't
make their choices in the dark.
