From now on, we'll do things my way.

So, I must be certain that there

are no loose ends in your story.

- There are none.

- No?

Because I think you are still

trying to manipulate me.

Testing on me your distorted

version of the facts,

- like I was your puppet.

- What is it that you don't believe?

It's true that everything could

have happened as you said.

But... what if it wasn't you that broke

the promise never to meet again,

but rather Laura?

Can I know what you did to cause the police

to believe that Daniel has run away?

Come in 4 hours at the bar,

- in front of the scrap yard.

- All right.

- Don't be late.

- All right. I'll be there.

Withdrawal of small amounts

from the customers' accounts,

shortly before disappearing.

You also could have gotten a

hold of the lad's things.

Adrian, what does all of this mean?

The lad's wallet.

I took it before I stuffed

him into the trunk.

- Set a price. Thank you.

- You've always had the means and contacts,

to change the course of events,

- without leaving tell-tale tracks.

- I'll take care of it.

That's false.

- You can't prove it.

- Neither can you.

Let's see everything in reverse.

Hey?

Would the pieces fit,

if it was you who took

the initiative?

- What are you doing?

- I'm calling the police.

Listen, it wasn't our fault,

it was the f***ing deer.

Are you crazy?

- What if he saw something?

- He hasn't seen anything.

We have to rid of him.

And if it was Laura

Vidal who was dragged to

an extreme situation

out of control?

According to this medical report,

your mistress suffered from

severe anxiety attacks,

after your return from your

alleged trip to Paris.

Even a ruthless person like

her could collapse.

That's precisely what it does not

agree with me, Mr. Doria.

That she had been the real instigator

of everything,

it would strengthen the belief

that you would save that youngster.

Instead, you drowned him!

Parents fear it is not a

voluntary disappearance

It was she that bore such a weight

on her conscience,

that, little by little,

made her collapse.

The impresario Adrian Doria has

just received the prize...

Until she realized that there was only

one way to regain their dignity'.

By now, she could no longer return

the child to those poor parents.

There was my friend and...

But there was

something she could do.

Tell them the truth.

Daniel...

So she met them at the hotel

where the lad's mother was employed.

A secluded spot in which

to put her plan in action.

She went to Bierge alone

through the valley.

And when she got to the

hotel station,

She call you from a pay phone

so you wouldn't suspect anything.

Someone knows something.

She made you believe that the

passerby driver had seen something.

...then why the f*** are you

using the phone?

That he had found her and

was blackmailing her.

It was her way of trying to compensate

those poor people for their loss.

She didn't have the courage to

confess it all empty-handed.

Once in the room, all she

had to do is wait.

Then she set in motion the

second part of the plan.

She wrote a text message on her

cell phone as a protection measure.

Laura knew you would refuse

to confess.

Because you only care about

one thing:
yourself.

So you made sure that nobody would see you

getting into the room where Laura was waiting.

But Laura had already

reached the point of no return.

When she told you what she intended

to do, you lost control

Read your message.

And when you received

the programmed SMS,

you understood you had fallen

into her trap.

The reservation is also in your name.

Let's give them the money.

You're going to tell them where

their son's body is

and we're going to surrender...

Adrian.

There's no going back.

I didn't kill her

and I'll never admit to it in front

of a jury, do you understand?

You killed and became trapped in

a room where it was not possible to escape.

Hello?

Is everything alright?

You thought the SMS could be useful,

And you looked for the elements on which

to base your convoluted theory.

Police!

You look fine?

Police!

Good.

Do you want to play?

Let's do it.

Why did Tomas Garrido and

his wife have not spoken up?

If Laura call them to tell the truth

Why did they not tell the police?

Those parents know you

will never incriminated yourself

and tell them where their son is buried.

Without a body, it is very

difficult to prove a murder,

and that you're capable of

anything just to remain free,

including blaming them for the

death of your mistress.

Come with me.

Second window to the right of the

penultimate floor.

Look carefully, Mr. Doria.

Tomas Garrido has stopped counting

on the police for some time now.

And, since then, he's been watching you

planning take the law into his own hands.

You assume things that you can not know.

About Tomas Garrido I know more

than you think.

Why?

- You're very smart, make an effort.

- I want an answer.

When Tomas and his wife

arrived at the hotel

they learned of Laura's death.

they realized what had happened.

Of course, they examined the options

and hesitated about what to do.

But, not trusting in the

justice system, what did they have left?

Study the enemy and wait.

To watch you.

Tomas Garrido became

a shadow in the shadows.

He found an apartment

in front of your building

and managed to occupy it

anonymously.

And since then...

he's kept you and anybody else that came in

contact with you under constant surveillance.

Every meeting, every conversation,

every move to get away

Tomas Garrido was there '

to take advantage.

And of course, that includes me too.

Who was that man and that he was

doing in front of my office?

I realized that he had arrived there

following Felix's footsteps.

So I arranged for surveillance to

find out his movements.

VG - Virginia Goodman - Attorney

It was the boy's father that brought

you here, not the other way around.

He gave you the thread to

get to Daniel Garrido.

This picture shows that everything could

have happened in a way that benefits me.

You're still not listening and not

paying attention to the details.

The lad's mother was in the room.

That day she was off work,

I just told you.

They went to the hotel because they

had arranged a meeting with Laura.

- I tell you that this photo shows...

- This picture is fake, Mr. Doria!

And it's rigged. It's a composite.

Look at the reflection

in the mirror.

And now, tell me...

Do you want my help?

Do you want to make sure the judge believes

you're not a murderer? Well, then...

- admit that you killed Laura...

- I killed her.

Adrian, are you there?

You have your cell phone turned off.

Call me as soon as you can.

The miracle that we were expecting

has happened.

Talk to him.

It seems important.

Let's take 10 minutes rest and

then we'll resume from the beginning.

I know the strategy for your defense.

Rest assured.

I am going out for a bit
