THE DEVIL KNOWS BEST
I'd rather hold on to it.
My safe is much more secure.
-Carmelo. -Sir?
I'll put this away in my office and then we'll go.
Fine.
I'm not taking this, Lucas.
It's yours.
I was borrowing it.
It's a goodbye gift.
You've given me enough gifts already!
But this one's more important than the others.
I'm so proud of having helped you find your talent.
Now you can live off it.
But I'm a little nervous
because I know Arianna's worried about the news show.
A woman like her shouldn't have to go through this
at this stage in her life.
What she deserves is peace and quiet.
I feAre you okay, honey?
Don't worry, it's nothing.
Who is it that beat you up?
A little gang of idiots that's caused trouble from the start.
Don't worry, honey.
Everyone here's got enemies.
It's really hard not to.
I know, honey.
I'm really very sorry.
Stop saying that every time we talk!
None of this is your fault.
So did you show them?
What do you think?
They know they can't mess with me now.
-That's right. -Yeah.
I'm hoping Manuela and Horacio can end this soon.
You need to get out soon
because I can't marry Silvana without a best man.
You're getting married?
Of course, it's all planned!
I just need her to say yes.
Oh, that's all!
How do you feel?
Nervous, but determined.
Do you think Martin watches the news?
I don't know.
But if he doesn't, he find out through Graciela or Cristian.
-Mrs. Davila? -Yes.
Hi, this is my daughter, Manuela Davila.
Hello, I'm Martha Godoy, the producer.
We were expecting you for your interview.
-Follow me, please. -Thank you.
This way, please.
-Hi, Lucia. -Hi, Arianna.
My daughter, Manuela.
A pleasure.
Thanks for doing this, really.
I was very intrigued when Arianna told me the story.
This will be a very good and open interview.
I'm willing to tell all.
Excellent.
Johnny! Come over here.
Please have a seat.
-I'll sit over there. -Fine, thanks.
Makeup.
I read the article that came out on your husband.
My ex-husband.
Actually, that article motivated us to call you.
This is all a big lie.
So Martin didn't take over your father's company
to merge it and grow it on the market, etc.
No, his motivation was only to achieve personal wealth
at our expense.
Does he know you're here for this interview?
No, he'll find out once its on air.
Alright, I'm ready when you are.
Five, four, three, two, action.
Manuela, welcome.
Please tell us what this announcement to the media
is about today.
Martin Acero was named president
of Davila Enterprises, the conglomerate founded
by my father.
It was a gesture of trust and generosity by my father.
His job was to manage the assets that until my father's death
belonged to my mother, my sister, and I.
With the amount of trust we had in Martin,
the three of us signed a document agreeing to a merger
between Davila Enterprises and a supposedly large
and prominent company called Global Investment Corp.,
whose president, according to Martin, is Max Villareal.
But this is all pure fraud.
That's Pedro Velez,
CEO of Banco Latinoamericano de Inversiones.
They received bailout money recently
and they're one of the few banks that have repaid it.
-Mr. Velez. -Lorenzo.
How are you?
Let me introduce you to Martin Acero.
-A pleasure. -Likewise.
Martin's the president of Global Group.
I'm sure you know about the merger
between Davila Enterprises and Global Investments.
Of course, I read the article this morning.
Whoever didn't know now does!
Yes, I wanted to congratulate you.
You were the first to pay back the bailout money
from the economic crisis, right?
We're committed to our clients and investors.
It was our duty.
Yes, but the other banks haven't paid.
Well, what can we do?
Cristian!
This is Mr. Aldo Roca.
A pleasure.
Lorenzo says you're the vice president of Global Group.
Yes.
Not only that.
With Martin's help, Cristian designed the merger schematic
that today makes up the new group.
He's a financial genius!
It's not such a big deal.
And he's so humble!
So, a financial genius.
Lord knows that my industry needs people
to help us become profitable.
Who doesn't?
I'll leave you two to talk.
It was hard breaking the ice but they're talking now.
Excellent.
Roca liked your brother.
He can take him to bed.
I need to come out in that magazine.
Who am I meeting now?
Beatriz Pereira.
Do you know who she is?
-Married or single? -It matters?
No, but who is she?
She's heiress to one of the biggest
Latino radio stations in New York.
She's the daughter of Samuel Zark,
who passed away eight months ago.
So she's powerful.
That plus the pressure and no one to support her
makes her feel so alone, and so weighed-down.
How do you know?
Look at her.
Typical black dress, a jacket that's nothing special,
she's barely wearing makeup,
and she hasn't been to a salon in over a month.
Oh well, you're very good at what you do.
That's why I'm so pricey.
-Let's go. -Let's.
Beatriz!
Martin Acero.
He's been insisting on meeting you.
Yes, I have.
-It's finally happened. -Finally.
What a pleasure.
Martin's the president of Global Group.
Have you seen today's paper?
Of course I have.
Isn't it funny how the press highlights people in style?
You have a visitor, Otter.
Who is it?
How should I know?
One of those neighborhood morons you hang out with.
I hope they've got the money you owe me.
Don't worry, I'll get your money.
Those magazines were really good.
I had pleasant dreams.
Right now Manuela's being interviewed on the news show.
Good.
Are you sure that's the best thing to do with Martin now?
Of course, Mike.
We have to show everyone who Martin really is.
But doing that with Iron Man will make him want to get even.
Angel says that us coming out publicly will protect us.
It's a perfect plan.
He can't touch them.
He'd be the first suspect.
You're right.
Besides, Manuela will only talk about the merger.
Not anything else.
What's very important...
Honey, what's wrong?
Are you okay?
-It's him! -Who?
The one who kidnapped me!
He kidnapped me!
-I'm gonna kill you! -Jimmy be careful!
I'm gonna kill you!
Come here!
I'm gonna kill you!
Calm down!
No touching.
No touching!
Take her, Mike.
Tell Manuela to come.
We have to press charges against that jerk.
Don't touch me!
Luisito!
What's up, how are you?
Good.
Sundays are calm as usual.
Great.
Why are you here?
I'm here for some documents for the boss.
I'll be right out.
Fine. Have a good one.
Leon, it's Carmelo.
What's up?
I've got the document with the Swiss bank account info.
Perfect.
Can you make a copy?
No, I'd have to leave the office for that,
which would raise suspicion.
I'll write down what we need.
This can't be.
What?
It doesn't show the whole number,
just the last four digits.
Then that's not the document.
It's probably in Cristian's office.
At least I know the bank name.
We'll talk later.
You can't get the rest today?
No, I can't.
This is very dangerous.
I'll call you later.
Hey there.
Did you find what you were looking for?
Yeah, this is it.
It looks like we're the only ones who work on Sundays.
Yeah.
Sure, since we're not the owners...
Yeah.
But one never knows.
Maybe one day.
Jimmy, what's with the face?
I'm gonna kill him!
These two kidnapped and drugged my wife!
Let me go!
Move it!
-What's your problem, jerk? -It's you two!
But we'll resolve that now.
What did you do to my wife? Tell me!
Don't tell me the little rich girl was your wife.
We didn't do anything. She's delirious!
You know what's going to happen when she reports you?
You'll each get minimum 3O years.
By the time you get out
you won't have anything to live for anymore.
Let's see if it's still so funny to you
that you took advantage of a poor innocent woman!
She's wrong about us! She's crazy!
Shut up, Otter!
At least we've got a nice memory.
Your wifey was very yummy.
Isn't that right, Otter?
What, I didn't do anything!
Don't be so scared!
This rat can't do anything to us in here!
Really?
Are you sure?
We'll see about that you pig!
