Mateo, sit properly!

Where are we going?

Mateo!

I left all the samples on your desk.

And the latest reports on Tank 4,

in case you need them.

You already told me.

All right.

You know I can be by myself

for a couple of weeks.

Yes, I know.

If the female isn't better

in five days, please call me.

I can't wait for you to go.

Diego.

- Mama!

- Hi, honey.

- How was it? How are you?

- Fine.

Fine? What are you making?

- A plasticine fish.

- Really?

It looks great.

Where's Aunt Laura?

Aunt Laura has been looking

for the ball for ten minutes.

Here you are, dear.

I almost missed picking him up

because of the traffic jam.

We were nearly late

for the dentist's office.

I put the date of the next check- up

inside the bag.

Feel here.

Don't you dare have it

before we get back.

I'll do my best.

- Has he had his afternoon snack?

- He didn't want to.

You didn't?

- Are you ready?

- Yes.

Have you got your bag?

- You look handsome.

- I got dressed by myself.

That's good.

I'll get it.

Diego, never mind.

Come on out.

I found it.

You found it!

You're a treasure, you know?

Will you lend it to me?

Yes, but promise me

you'll take care of it.

OK?

- I put it on by myself.

- Let me see.

Shall we go?

Are you looking forward

to getting on the ship?

It's not a ship, it's a ferry.

- How do you know that?

- My aunt told me.

- Did she?

- Yes.

Are you looking forward

to getting on the ferry? You are?

This is your first time on one.

But I've drawn lots of them.

- Who lives in the sea?

- The fish.

Yes, but which fish?

Whales.

- What else?

- Dolphins.

And?

Orange fish.

Mermaids.

Let's go inside.

Soon I'll have to show you

how to tie your shoelaces.

How soon?

Very soon.

Look, Mum.

Where are they going?

On holidays, like us.

- When do we get there?

- When we get there.

- When are we going to swim?

- Straight away.

But you've got to put

your rubber ring on.

- Do you have a rubber ring?

- No. I know how to swim.

Can I go play?

Aren't you tired?

Well, take this off.

We thank you for the trust

you have placed in us

and wish you a happy stay.

Attention all passengers.

A 5-year-old boy has been lost.

He has dark hair

and is wearing a brown jumper.

Do you think Diego might've gone

to an outdoor section?

- No, not without me.

- We'll reach the island in no time.

Once there, we'll empty the ship

and search for your son thoroughly.

You're letting everyone off the ship?

It'll be easier

to look for him that way.

Diego!

Come with me, please.

- We need the passenger list.

- We've asked for it.

- What about the other patrol?

- Send it inland.

- Give me that, please.

- It just came in.

Go ahead.

And the number plates for caravans?

What are you waiting for?

- A checkpoint here.

- Right.

- Check these trucks too.

- Yes.

What phone number do we put down?

The one on the card?

Yes.

Would you like to add

another number, just in case?

- Your husband's or a relative's...

- I don't have a husband.

One number is fine.

For the moment, we can't do any more.

I'm so sorry.

Do you remember how bad

the female was?

She's adapted perfectly now.

In fact, they're thinking about

bringing in two more.

Really?

It adapted overnight.

- Did you go to the pool today?

- Yes.

And?

Don't push yourself.

You need time

to overcome your phobia.

Yes, I know.

But if I don't work

or sleep, I'll go crazy.

- But you are working.

- Yes, I fill graphs with data.

I need to be in the water.

- What shall we play?

- Hide and seek?

I don't like hide and seek.

- Why not?

- Because you might not find me.

- Did you take your pills?

- No, I don't want any pills.

At least you'd sleep

for several hours straight.

When I do that I wake up

in worse shape than before.

It'd be good for me

to go back to work.

You just need more time.

Be patient.

- Laura.

- Yes?

Can you open up?

Can you take him?

Yes, that's me.

The age of the body matches,

and the approximate date of death.

In any case,

that's never a decisive factor.

To confirm the identity of the body,

we need a DNA test,

or, in this case,

a relative for identification.

- Thank you for coming...

- Where is he?

Wait.

It's not him.

Are you sure?

What do you think?

It isn't my son.

- It's not him.

- It's not him?

I knew it, I knew it.

Laura, let's get out of here.

Excuse me, can we leave?

- We have a slight problem.

- What's wrong?

We assumed the statement

would be positive...

Why did you assume that?

The mistake is ours.

We're sorry.

We have to take DNA samples,

from both you and the body.

And that requires

the presence of a judge.

- And?

- He won't be here until Monday.

Until Monday?

Our plane leaves tomorrow.

It's only three days.

I'm sorry.

One room with two beds.

How long are you staying?

Probably until Monday.

No problem.

The police called us.

The hotel is almost empty,

so you won't be disturbed.

It's room number seven.

It's at the end of the hall.

Welcome.

Since when?

Of course.

Don't forget, take his temperature

every two or three hours.

Yes.

No water.

- What did you say?

- Nothing.

- What is it?

- The baby has a fever.

Here.

Let's see if you're lucky tonight.

What is he doing?

I didn't sleep well.

Didn't you hear anything last night?

No. Like what?

I don't know. There were noises.

I woke up a couple of times.

I didn't hear anything.

As long as we have to stay,

shouldn't we get out for a bit?

Maybe rent a car.

Guests always ask,

so I have a couple of cars to rent.

- We wanted it until Monday.

- No problem.

- It's not new, but it's a good car.

- I'm sure.

The tank's full.

- And we have to return it full.

- Be careful, it uses a lot of gas.

There are two gas stations

on the whole island,

and they both close at night.

This is so you know where you are.

We're here.

This beach is nice,

but you have to cross the mountain.

This one's good.

And this one,

but the road there is bad.

This one's very quiet.

Well, they're all quiet here.

I'll go buy some things

and we'll eat here.

- I'll come.

- There's no need. Rest up.

Maria.

- What are you up to?

- Nothing.

- Shall we eat?

- Sure.

Your hair, it's wet.

- Did you go swimming?

- A little.

A little? Are you serious?

This is good news.

Before, when I was alone

on the beach, I got scared.

Scared?

I don't know what to call it.

It was a kind of...

It's nothing.

How much did his temperature go up?

No, of course it's not normal.

Tomorrow? What time?

Of course I'd rather be with my son

than waste my time here.

She's the same as always,

a bit strange.

No, of course not.

You know she sometimes

made me nervous.

Yes, all right.

We'll talk later.

I love you too.

- I don't like leaving you here alone.

- If you stay, you'll feel worse.

Don't worry, I'll be fine.

I'll be back in a couple of days.

I know.

There's a camping ground

on the north of the island.

It has lots of trailers,

but I don't know if any are for rent.
