00:00That love is stronger than I am and it has fructified a child that I am waiting for.
00:07I'm leaving quietly because I know you will be a good father to Santos.
00:12Tell him whatever you want. I hope you have the opportunity to know love as I am knowing it.
00:20You will feel much more relieved when I make a decision about your pregnancy.
00:26You know that I'm with you to death, but in a way I understand the Marquis' whims.
00:31Yes, I understand it too. I'm not going to deny it.
00:34And what are you going to do?
00:35Well, I wish I knew, but unfortunately I don't see a solution.
00:39The important thing here is that I get married in three days. They lose desire to do so.
00:43Don't worry, we have the main thing for a wedding.
00:46A boyfriend, a girlfriend and a minister of the Lord.
00:49And in this case it's me.
00:51For the rest, nothing to worry about.
00:53In three days we arrive safe and sound.
00:55Hanna and Manuel's wedding?
00:56And look, yesterday I was talking to Hanna and she didn't say anything to me.
01:00You seem upset.
01:02Aren't you happy?
01:03Of course I'm happy, I'm infinitely happy.
01:05And it's better if it's that fast.
01:06So the Marquis doesn't have time to make up a scene to separate him.
01:10Martina, Manuel and Hanna have postponed the wedding.
01:13You have to come back.
01:15Burro, I can't hear you.
01:17Martina, you have to come back now.
01:20Manuel and Hanna are getting married now.
01:24Martina?
01:28Well, look, your wife left you a farewell letter before she left.
01:31And all this time, Ricardo hasn't been able to open it.
01:35And what did he say?
01:37Well, what he said is quite intimate, so I think he should tell you and not me.
01:42Well, yes, no matter how you put it, there's no turning back.
01:45Father Samuel has given us the good omen.
01:47And we are invited to the wedding, RÃo?
01:50Miss Fernández, please.
01:52Of course, MarÃa.
01:54You are all invited to both the ceremony and the invitation.
01:58I couldn't get married without all of you.
02:05Where are you going, ma'am?
02:07I'm going for a walk in my gardens.
02:09Do you have a badge?
02:11Well, yes.
02:12Yes, she does.
02:13If she has dared to come to the promenade.
02:15The problem is not that I'm here, Petra.
02:18The problem is that I don't know who she has come to.
02:21Who are you writing to?
02:27Really, Catalina?
02:29Have you written to Pelayo again?
02:36I'm not writing to Pelayo, really.
02:39Look, sister, I ...
02:41I know I'm not the one to get into where they don't call me.
02:44And I understand that waiting for a creature is rethinking coming back to him.
02:47Manuel.
02:48Manuel, please.
02:50Catalina, what ...
02:54What I want to tell you is that I'm on your side.
02:58So if you need me to go talk to Pelayo to make a mediator, I ...
03:01The letter is not for Pelayo.
03:04Oh no?
03:05Look.
03:06And for whom is it?
03:08It's for Aunt Clara.
03:19If you knew how to welcome me to your house ...
03:23Catalina, what is this?
03:25It's exactly what you just read.
03:30I didn't know you were going to leave.
03:33Nobody knows.
03:35You're the first one to find out, actually.
03:39To Aunt Clara's house.
03:42To Aunt Clara's house.
03:46Yes.
03:47Yes ...
03:48Yes, she has good reason to welcome me.
03:50She has always loved us very much.
03:56Catalina, we haven't heard from her for many years.
03:59She didn't even go to Tomás' wedding.
04:01Nor mine with Ximena.
04:03And just as things are in the promise, she misses you?
04:06Despite everything, I kept texting her.
04:08Yes, but some letters are not going to deny the obvious.
04:10And the obvious is that she is a complete stranger to us.
04:13Manuel, can you stop, please?
04:15Because it gives me the feeling that your problem is not with Aunt Clara,
04:18but with me leaving.
04:20Well, maybe I don't want you to leave, Catalina.
04:24Manuel, it's best for everyone.
04:27And especially for me.
04:29I'm tired.
04:31Tired of arguing with my father,
04:33of the insidious comments of Cruz and the captain.
04:36And I'm sure she will help me.
04:38Without asking anything.
04:43Hey, don't be sad.
04:46I still have a long way to go.
04:51I promise you that I will be on the first bench of the church on your wedding day.
04:56I hope so.
04:58Because otherwise I would never forgive you.
05:02Nor would I forgive myself.
05:05But then I will leave.
05:09And when will you come back?
05:13Well, I don't know. After the birth.
05:15If my father allows me.
05:18You are fired.
05:21The moment my father sees his grandson, or granddaughter,
05:25he will lose his mind.
05:28And he will leave that neighborhood.
05:32I'm going to miss you a lot.
05:34I'm going to miss you a lot.
05:39I haven't told you that I still have a long way to go.
05:43Let's not start with the goodbyes, huh?
05:45Or I will never be able to leave.
05:49I don't think it's such a bad idea.
05:58No, Alonso, no.
06:00I'm not going to accumulate with mill wheels.
06:02What's up? We haven't had enough transience, have we?
06:04You know my opinion well enough.
06:06Yes, I know it.
06:08But you better shut up in front of Hanna and Manuel.
06:11The truth is that I've been thinking about this issue all night.
06:14But I can't find a solution.
06:18If even the priest's pedigree is willing to accept this nonsense.
06:21There is no other way.
06:23But what wedding can there be, in such a short time?
06:26If it were a farmer's wedding,
06:28the only thing they want is the priest's blessing
06:31to be able to work like a dog.
06:33Still.
06:35But we're talking about a future marquis.
06:37We need months.
06:39Well, we have two days left.
06:42What side are you on?
06:44The side I've always been on, Cruz.
06:46The side of honor.
06:48And the extremes to which you have led this
06:50seem quite dishonorable to me.
06:52Really?
06:53All this has gone too far.
06:55I don't know what you're talking about.
06:57About your deal with the invitations for Manu's request.
07:01And don't tell me it was Petra's mistake again,
07:03because I don't believe it.
07:04Well, it was like that.
07:05How many times do you want me to repeat it?
07:07Cruz, I'm tired.
07:09The way things are, a new confrontation with Manuel
07:12would be almost worse than that disastrous wedding with that girl.
07:15With that maid.
07:18Her love has resisted all your attempts to dynamite it.
07:21They love each other.
07:23And they're going to get married.
07:24Well, let them.
07:26They're like two fugitives, behind everyone's backs.
07:29It's in our hands that it's not like that.
07:31Because Manuel has never cared about the Marquis' commitments.
07:34And what are we going to tell Regina?
07:36Are you proposing that we prepare the wedding in two days?
07:39Precisely.
07:41We choose the guests well.
07:43Few, but of Alcurnia,
07:44so that at least the honor of the Lujan
07:46is not diminished.
07:47All this is going to turn against us.
07:49You'll see.
07:50Those who are not invited will take it as a curse.
07:53And we'll be adding more firewood to the fire
07:55that the Dukes of the Infants have been feeding for months.
07:58We have to stop this wedding.
08:01Two days, Cruz.
08:03It's all we have.
08:14Look, Romulo.
08:16I know why you called me.
08:18So, if you agree, let's solve it as soon as possible.
08:21We both have a lot of work ahead of us.
08:24I know I lost the papers with Mrs. Arcos,
08:26but that lady is asking me for an impossible one.
08:28Look, without a date.
08:29Without a number of guests.
08:31So who can make a budget?
08:36I see that you have already done it.
08:38Well, this is just a draft.
08:40And we'll talk about it later.
08:43But now there is another issue that I want to discuss with you.
08:47I have learned that you have recently opened a letter
08:49that your wife left you.
08:54Did she tell you?
08:56Yes.
08:57She is very worried about you and it is not for less.
09:00But you know how Mrs. Adarre ...
09:02She was discreet and did not tell me what she was dealing with.
09:06And now, for the friendship that unites us,
09:08I think it would be very good for you
09:10if we talked about it.
09:13Romulo, I swear that ...
09:15I did not expect that some words written so long ago
09:18would destroy me in this way.
09:20No, don't blame yourself.
09:21We do not control our affections.
09:23It took a piece of paper and a little ink
09:26to reopen
09:29the wound of her departure.
09:31And what did she tell you?
09:33Well, you can imagine.
09:35An agreement of excuses
09:37to justify the unjustifiable.
09:41She repeated what you already knew.
09:43There was also a confession that I can't get out of my head.
09:48She was pregnant, Romulo.
09:51When she left, she was pregnant with my brother-in-law.
09:56I'm sorry.
09:59She was cold
10:02to choose a child engendered
10:05in adultery
10:08over our own son.
10:10No, it must be easy to choose in that encroachure.
10:13What I had thought before,
10:14to do it with my sister's husband, right?
10:17Yes, that's right, yes.
10:18But well, the evil was already done.
10:20You know what hurts me the most of all?
10:24That I think she didn't love us,
10:26nor did she love me.
10:27That she never did.
10:29How can Romulo be so blind?
10:31That's what love has.
10:33That forces us to seek the happiness of the other,
10:36forgetting about ourselves.
10:38I swear I tried everything
10:40to make her happy.
10:42We overcame a thousand adversities
10:45and we had our pluses and minuses,
10:49but marriage doesn't have them.
10:52I gave her everything I had,
10:55Romulo,
10:56and it's obvious that everything wasn't enough.
10:59But you can't blame yourself for the decisions she made.
11:03Don't ask me not to blame myself.
11:06It's the only way I have to explain to myself
11:08what happened.
11:20I'm so glad you accepted my invitation.
11:24The last time we talked,
11:25I tortured you by gossiping about me.
11:27And the truth is that I'm very curious
11:29to meet the woman who has conquered
11:31the heart of young Lujan.
11:35Well, here I am.
11:37Have you tried the anchovies?
11:39They are really tasty.
11:40So you come from the north of Castile,
11:43related to the Counts of Benavente.
11:50Are you surprised that I know?
11:53Yes, a little.
11:54Don't worry.
11:55I've done my research before having this aperitif.
11:58And Cruz hasn't given me much information either.
12:01You already know her.
12:02She is quite reserved when it comes to talking about other people's lives.
12:06So, where does your family come from?
12:13Well, it's a ...
12:16It's a bit difficult to summarize
12:18why they come from here and there.
12:21Don't worry.
12:22We'll wait a while, right?
12:23We could start, for example,
12:25where your parents were born.
12:27That would be a fantastic start, without a doubt.
12:32In Burgos.
12:33Burgos!
12:34What a beautiful city!
12:36With the most impressive cathedral I've ever seen in my life.
12:40What neighborhood did you live in?
12:44Honestly, we didn't live in Burgos capital.
12:49We were from a nearby town,
12:51half a day away.
12:53What town?
12:54Lerma? Cobarrubias?
12:56Cobarrubias?
13:00It's normal that you don't remember if you've never lived there.
13:03And your parents neither.
13:05In fact,
13:06I would dare to say that you have set foot in Castile.
13:12Look, I ...
13:13What Mrs. Cruz told you ...
13:15It's a bigger lie than the cathedral in Burgos.
13:18Don't worry.
13:20I knew it before we had this aperitif.
13:24So why?
13:25Is she locked up?
13:28Well, mainly for one reason.
13:32Because I heard the service referring to you as Miss Expósito.
13:36And that last name ...
13:38You will agree that ...
13:40Alta Alcurnia has very little.
13:45You know,
13:47I have the feeling that you and I are going to get along very well.
13:52Hanna,
13:54why don't you tell me who you really are?
14:01The cake is short of a sigh.
14:03You eat more with the meringue.
14:04I'm on it, ma'am.
14:10Well, let's see ...
14:12Let him see it and you start cutting the fruit for the cake.
14:15I think it's a very good decision.
14:18It shows his intelligence.
14:23Pedro, what are you doing?
14:25What am I going to do?
14:26I'm rehearsing, ma'am.
14:29And I don't allow him to take advantage of my learning.
14:35What's going on there?
14:37Think about it coldly.
14:39We are going to Mr. Manuel's wedding.
14:41We are invited.
14:43Yes, but as friends and former partners of the bride.
14:47But there will be a lucky friend of the groom, right?
14:50But you have seen us, Candela.
14:52I have a lot of scratches.
14:53A widowed friend of the groom's father.
14:55Well, it's okay for me too.
14:58And what will a certain school teacher who lives in Gijón say?
15:02Oh, my dear.
15:03I will have no choice but to invite him to my wedding with a marquis.
15:08With a count.
15:12Look, if Hanna has managed to win over Mr. Manuel,
15:15why not us?
15:17Really?
15:18I'm starting to enumerate reasons for you.
15:20No, daughter, no.
15:21It will take away my happiness.
15:23Now, you can't stop imagining me dancing with a marquis.
15:31I was thinking about Hanna.
15:33Everything the poor woman has had to endure.
15:36And finally, she is going to marry the love of her life.
15:39Yes, I am also happy for her.
15:41And for both of them to be very happy.
15:44They will be, as long as they are together.
15:46And the best of all is that you and I are going there to celebrate it, huh?
15:51You don't want to leave Hanna, Nina.
15:54Hey, did we miss each other?
15:55Mrs. Catalina's wedding?
15:57I don't miss this one for anything in the world.
16:00Let's see if this groom also runs away and we are left without a party.
16:04No, no, no, no.
16:05Mr. Manuel is very in love with Hanna.
16:08He only has eyes for his Hanna.
16:10He kisses the ground where she steps.
16:13Another thing is,
16:15a person that I know,
16:17to whom this marriage is not very secret.
16:19Your imagination is short, Candela.
16:22You are talking about the wedding of her own son.
16:24Well, that's precisely why Mrs. Cruz is not going to keep her arms crossed.
16:28Because to be related to one of us,
16:31that's hard for her, but fine.
16:35Don't be that nag.
16:37Mr. Manuel is her right eye.
16:39And no matter how hard it is for her,
16:41she is not going to do anything that prevents the happiness of her child of the soul.
16:47I don't know.
16:51I confess that I would never have imagined it.
16:55A young maiden is the one who has conquered the love of the future Marquis of Lujan.
17:02Now I understand Cruz's efforts to cover up the scandal.
17:07Look, I love Manuel with all my soul.
17:09And I don't care about his position or his money.
17:14I believe you.
17:16I really do.
17:18And I can assure you that no one cares about a noble title less than me.
17:23Well,
17:25it's easy to say when you have one.
17:32Aren't you noble?
17:37No.
17:39No.
17:44Forgive me, it's just that as ...
17:46As a friend of Mrs. Marquesa, I had thought that ...
17:48Cruz was not born a marquis either.
17:51Not even then was his father the Baron of Linaja.
17:55Anyway, who cares?
17:59The class and honorability of a person are much more than a simple paper
18:04signed by a king talking about someone he doesn't even know.
18:07But what nonsense is that?
18:12I think I would make very good friends with Catalina.
18:17I'm sorry I put you in a bind before.
18:20But I thank you very much for being honest.
18:23That is a virtue that shines in your new condition because of its absence.
18:28Joy is mutual.
18:31Anyway, if you allow me some advice,
18:35I recommend that you learn the official version of your past well.
18:40Why do you say that?
18:43You won't believe that I was the only one that my dear friend Cruz
18:46told you all that story about the Counts of Benavente, right?
18:54If you'll excuse me.
18:56Of course.
18:58I see that Cruz and you have a lot to talk about.
19:01Come in.
19:27Come in.
19:32I hope it's about some grudge.
19:34Because as you will understand, with Mr. Manuel's wedding,
19:36I don't have time for nonsense.
19:39Yes, I'll take care of it.
19:40And it will only be a few minutes.
19:44I come to talk to you about Mr. Ricardo.
19:47Oh my God.
19:48And what happens with Mr. Pellicer?
19:51Vera, I know that lately you have had your ups and downs,
19:54and I would like to ask you,
19:56or rather,
19:58beg you,
20:00to be considerate with him.
20:02Even if it's only out of respect that we owe each other,
20:04among colleagues.
20:05Considerate?
20:06Have you heard me?
20:08We have a wedding in Ciernas,
20:10and all Mr. Pellicer has to do is fulfill his obligations.
20:13Precisely for that, Mr. Arcos.
20:15The wedding is very important for everyone,
20:17and we all want it to come out perfectly.
20:19Right?
20:20Well then, you just obey my orders
20:22and stop meddling where they don't call you.
20:24Is it so difficult to accept an advice
20:26when it comes of good will?
20:29I don't have time for nonsense,
20:31so leave.
20:32No, I'm going to finish talking.
20:34Because I was recently in his place,
20:36and I went through two weddings,
20:37the one of Mr. Tomás
20:38and the first wedding of Mr. Manuel.
20:40And now you come to give me lessons.
20:42Of course not,
20:43but I take care of what's going on,
20:45and I know that for everything to go well,
20:46it's better to collaborate,
20:47and not look for squabbles.
20:49And why don't you start talking to your mayor?
20:52Because he's the first one
20:53who goes to Greece all day
20:54as if he were a tavern thug.
20:56He hasn't told you that?
20:57No, he hasn't told me.
20:58It's not even the reason
20:59they were arguing about.
21:01And if that's the case,
21:02don't you think it's very daring
21:03on your part to show up here
21:05and blame me for everything?
21:06That has never come out of my mouth,
21:08Mrs. Arcos.
21:09If I come here,
21:10it's because I think it's in your hands
21:11to prevent the problem from growing
21:12before it becomes unmanageable.
21:14What would you do if I told you?
21:16But tell me,
21:17who has appointed you
21:18half an hour before all this?
21:20Nobody,
21:21but I'm not blind.
21:23And I know that Mr. Pellicer
21:24doesn't go through his best...
21:26moment.
21:27So that's what it's about,
21:29that you've already asked your boyfriend
21:31about that shady affair with your wife.
21:34Am I wrong?
21:36No.
21:37You don't need to answer me.
21:38Your face already tells me everything.
21:40What you don't understand
21:41is how you still have the courage
21:43to defend him.
21:44Because he has deceived you.
21:46He has deceived you and everyone else.
21:48That man doesn't deserve trust.
21:50Enough.
21:51I'm not here to talk about private life.
21:53I'm talking about Ricardo's private life.
21:55I don't understand what you're doing here either.
21:58So leave
21:59and stop wasting our time.
22:02Now.
22:23I've already changed the flowers
22:24and I've picked up the ashes from the fireplace.
22:27Do you mind putting on the pen?
22:29I still have some time left with the crystals.
22:31Really?
22:32What time is it?
22:33Almost lunchtime.
22:35We still have to make Hanna's room.
22:37Well, Hanna wouldn't mind
22:39if we do it in the afternoon.
22:40But in the afternoon we have the laundry,
22:41the ironing and going over the money.
22:42Teresa, shut up, shut up.
22:43You're overwhelming me.
22:44No, I'm not the one who's overwhelming you.
22:46It's Mrs. Arcos.
22:47It has to be all at once and for yesterday.
22:49Well, you know that asking is free.
22:51And comfortable.
22:52And all for Mr. Manuel's wedding.
22:54That's what she'll say.
22:55And you'll tell me who's going to come here
22:57to see if the Marquise has the crystals clean and shiny or not.
23:00The same as tidying up the mess.
23:03Not that it was yesterday's guest.
23:05She's like a chicken without a head.
23:06She doesn't even know what she wants.
23:08Look, lower your voice.
23:09Besides, we have no choice but to bow our heads.
23:12Don't get like that either.
23:13It was just to vent.
23:15We're still allowed to do that, right?
23:17Well, we'll do it when we finish the job.
23:19I don't know if I'll have the body for that.
23:21As soon as the gentlemen go to bed, I'll go in.
23:23Me neither.
23:24I have an exhausted arm from all the drinking.
23:26Do you want me to change you?
23:28Come on.
23:29You put the powder on, so you don't have to squeeze so much.
23:37I'm going to change the water.
23:38It's black.
23:51I'm going to change the water.
24:21I'm going to change the water.
24:51I don't even recognize the man I married.
24:54He's preparing the wedding, he tells me.
24:56As if it were so easy to prepare a wedding in a blink of an eye.
24:59Yes, it's a continuous mismanagement, ma'am.
25:02Of course it is.
25:04Because that's another one, of course.
25:05The responsibility falls on the good De Cruz.
25:08He has already washed his hands like Pilate.
25:11I swear to you that that slut is going to pay dearly for what she's doing.
25:15She's going to find out who she's playing with in the rooms.
25:19She may have deceived my son, but I know perfectly well who she is.
25:23Yes, ma'am, you are absolutely right.
25:25And if I may ...
25:26It will be Mr. Baeza.
25:27Come in.
25:32Did you send for me, ma'am?
25:34That's right, yes.
25:35I wanted to talk to you both.
25:37I know that you are already taking care of the preparations for Manuel's wedding.
25:40As ordered.
25:42I also assume, in the same way, that it is not an easy task, given the urgency of the link.
25:49Fortunately, we already have a list of guests.
25:53As you can see, there are few, but they all belong to influential families.
25:58The service will be impeccable.
26:00Everything will be up to a Curnia wedding, ma'am.
26:03I doubt that.
26:04But it is not your fault, but the hurries in which we have come across.
26:09On the other hand, I will be in charge of calling the guests by phone to apologize and also to close any confirmation.
26:17Apart from the invitations, I would like to ...
26:19One moment, Marquesa.
26:23We were just talking about the preparations for your wedding.
26:26Well, perfect, it was just what I wanted to talk to you about.
26:30We'll continue later, you can leave.
26:36Well, you tell me.
26:39Who are those with whom I am supposed to be related?
26:44Mrs. Leocadia has already informed me of everything.
26:46She has already told me that my family comes from the north and that I come from a high lineage.
26:51Well, look how good.
26:53So I have one less task. I don't have to repeat everything to you again.
26:58In any case, there is something that escapes me or I don't understand why you break in here,
27:02creating a scandal in front of society.
27:05Yeah.
27:07I thought that the north of Castile was to leak the information.
27:11And the Counts of Benavente don't predict much around here.
27:14In any case, I don't have time to talk about this now, Hanna.
27:19So it will be better if you assume it and look for another entertainment.
27:24How easy you see everything.
27:28Listen to me well, girl.
27:31Either you are a maid or you are noble.
27:34If you want a future with my son Manuel,
27:37you will have to accept the rules that govern the class to which you will belong.
27:42Well, maybe it's time to change those rules.
27:46Well, you change them when you are a Marquess.
27:50If you ever get to do it.
27:53Dear, if you were able to see beyond your navel,
27:56you would realize that this situation is not easy for me either.
28:00So please mature and do your part.
28:03Okay?
28:06Wait, don't go.
28:09Since you're here, let's talk about other important issues. Sit down.
28:31Can I know who got you into that mess?
28:36Nobody.
28:38Absolutely nobody.
28:42I got into it myself, Curro.
28:44And I swear I'm starting to regret it.
28:48What do you need?
28:50No, nothing.
28:51I came to see how you were, what you were doing,
28:54or if you needed a hand.
28:58Really?
28:59I'm sorry.
29:03So you're so bored that you offer to organize a wedding.
29:08You see,
29:10not long ago I was the one who was going to marry me.
29:13And here I am,
29:14without a fiancée,
29:16and with nothing to do.
29:19And without Martina.
29:24Do you miss her?
29:26Yes.
29:28Martina, in the end,
29:30she has become a good friend.
29:33But hey, tell me, what were you up to? Tell me.
29:37Because I find it very strange that your mother is letting you do something for the wedding.
29:41Yes.
29:42That's because my mother doesn't know anything.
29:45And I don't do this for myself, but for Hanna.
29:49All these roles have been facilitated to me by Don Rómulo.
29:52You see, Curro, I know that sooner or later my mother will take advantage of any excuse
29:55to put Hanna in a commitment.
29:58So I want to be aware of everything to be able to help her.
30:02It's not a bad idea.
30:07I notice some doubt in your tone.
30:10Well,
30:12I admit that I'm being fooled, yes.
30:15To no one's surprise.
30:18To no one's surprise.
30:22Let's see.
30:23Will you tell me what you know about color of napkins or table centers?
30:31Nothing.
30:35Unless
30:37you're like this for another reason.
30:41Is everything okay with Hanna?
30:44Yes.
30:46Yes, everything is fine.
30:48So?
30:54It's Catalina, Curro.
30:59Is there something you don't know?
31:04She's leaving.
31:08What do you mean she's leaving?
31:10Where to?
31:12To Aunt Clara's house.
31:14But is she sick?
31:18No.
31:20She's leaving because she can't stand the promise anymore.
31:23And she doesn't miss me.
31:25Apparently, she wants to
31:28stay at Aunt Clara's house to have her pregnancy under control.
31:33Until the baby is born.
31:36Curro, what kind of family forces you to run away?
31:39Instead of supporting you when things are bad.
31:41Instead of supporting you when things are bad.
31:46Ours.
31:47Of course.
31:49And this doesn't mean
31:52that your relationship with Hanna
31:54is going to go wrong.
31:58Mocho, I would have to change things with my parents for that.
32:01I know, and they're involved.
32:03Manuel, you and Hanna are going to get married.
32:07You will form your own family.
32:09And they will have no choice but to get used to it.
32:13And about Catalina,
32:15don't worry so much.
32:17Yes, she is strong and smart
32:21to know that what she needs now is to rest.
32:25So I don't think it will take long for us to see her again.
32:33I hope so.
32:39I hope so.
32:48I would very much like to greet you alone with a good afternoon.
32:52Wow, now you do have time to talk like two friends.
32:55You don't have anyone waiting for an answer.
32:58Not that I know of, Maria.
33:00Well, if you don't know it, what are you going to the race?
33:03At eight o'clock I have prayer of the rosary.
33:05Yeah, but you still have a lot left for eight o'clock.
33:06But I always arrive early in case someone wants to confess.
33:10Good thing I have Venia to confess in a blink of an eye.
33:15I said it as a joke, you don't have to be offended.
33:19That if I told you what I told you, it was because it was the only way you would listen to me.
33:23Yes, and I don't know what opinions our Lord will keep
33:26that you invent new uses for his sacraments.
33:29Well, inventing me neither.
33:31Well, I'm already forgiven for my sins, right?
33:34I'm not.
33:36If there was an act of contrition and you committed penance, then yes.
33:43The truth is that I wanted to tell you about that confession.
33:49Well, I already said everything I had to say.
33:51But I didn't, Maria.
33:54I wanted to tell you that, for my part,
33:56I agree that we should continue to be friends.
33:59Well,
34:01that we can talk about it is already a step.
34:04Yes.
34:06I hope you don't back out.
34:08No, Estela.
34:10I promise.
34:14Fixed then.
34:29Ricardo.
34:34Excuse me, I know you have a thousand things on your mind,
34:37but it will only be for a moment.
34:40You can't go on like this.
34:43Well, that's my business.
34:45No, it's not just yours anymore.
34:47People are realizing it.
34:49The argument he had with Mrs. Arcos ...
34:51That's too much.
34:53It's up to you, Ricardo.
34:55But I don't know anyone more resentful than her.
34:56Well, he's not going to do anything right now.
34:58Not at least until the gentlemen's wedding is over.
35:00That's his solution.
35:02Let the problem increase until it explodes in his face.
35:05I wish I could do it another way.
35:09I wish I could bury this pain that I feel,
35:12but I can't.
35:14I want him to forget
35:16that my wife left us
35:18and now more
35:20knowing that there is another.
35:22Well, I think so.
35:23Just as I think that in the meantime
35:25he can't keep his arms crossed.
35:29Look, Ricardo.
35:31As long as Santos doesn't know what happened to his mother,
35:34you won't forgive yourself.
35:39I can't ...
35:41I can't do that.
35:43But you have the right to know.
35:45I haven't known for years.
35:47Why does it have to be different now?
35:49Because he's not a child anymore.
35:51And what?
35:53He's not ready to hear
35:55that his mother abandoned him because she preferred another baby.
35:59It's like life itself, right?
36:01Things happen for which we are not prepared
36:04and they end up happening anyway.
36:09You don't understand.
36:12Maybe not, Ricardo.
36:17But you can explain it to me anyway.
36:24Let's see.
36:27If I tell Santos
36:30about it,
36:32he's going to ask me for explanations.
36:35And then you'll see
36:37that I wasn't up to it.
36:41That I wasn't good enough for him
36:43and that's why he abandoned us.
36:45Ricardo, please.
36:47She left because she fell in love with another man
36:50and she didn't know how to value what was on her side.
36:51No, those are other words to tell exactly what happened.
36:54Of course not.
36:56You were there, you fought for your marriage
36:58and for Santos.
37:00She was the one who abandoned you.
37:02I have suffered a lot during all these years
37:04and I took refuge in work
37:06without realizing that I was losing everything.
37:10Now she destroyed me
37:12in the past and now
37:14she is indirectly doing it again.
37:17Ricardo, I know.
37:19She hurt you a lot.
37:22But don't let this letter
37:25sink in again, please.
37:34And I was a child
37:36and the time of the consecration came.
37:38The priest raises the host.
37:40And I ring the bell.
37:42But I hit it so hard
37:44that I make a loud noise.
37:46And what happens then?
37:48As a monk, I was taught
37:49that the bell had to ring.
37:52So I started ...
37:56I don't believe you.
37:58The priest even laughed.
38:00He couldn't continue with the mass
38:02for a couple of minutes.
38:04I don't know how they got you into the seminary later.
38:06Miss Fernández,
38:08I don't think you should be with the priest.
38:11Get on with the tasks I've assigned you.
38:15Well, it's just that
38:16Father Samuel needed a patch
38:18in his basement.
38:20Yes, well, with the needle ...
38:22Well, MarÃa Fernández,
38:24you don't have to leave.
38:26It will be brief.
38:28So you can continue with the patch in the basement.
38:30We came to talk to Mrs. Marqués
38:32and, as you already know,
38:34the wedding will be held the day after tomorrow.
38:36I have everything ready.
38:38But maybe ready is not enough.
38:40It has to be impolite
38:42and without traces of the reform
38:44that has been made to the parish house
38:46with a lot of alcornia and its significance.
38:48And I understand, Petra.
38:50The church will be ready to receive everyone.
38:53Although, if you want to be sure,
38:55I have no problem with a palace maid
38:58going to finish that cleaning
39:00so that everything is impolite, as I did.
39:02No, impossible.
39:04With the preparations for the wedding,
39:06I can't do without anyone.
39:08Then I could entrust that task to a parish priest.
39:11Do whatever you want.
39:13Although, of course,
39:14you would have to pay him properly for the work,
39:17since it is a task
39:19that involves great responsibility.
39:21We understand you.
39:23You just make sure
39:25that the church looks like gold.
39:34Well.
39:37Well, I'm going to get dressed up.
39:40What are you doing now?
39:42Come on.
40:02I'm very sorry.
40:04You don't know how much it hurts me
40:06to have to say something like that.
40:08The wedding is canceled again,
40:09because of Miss Catalina?
40:11There will be a wedding this time.
40:15But you will not be able to attend.
40:21Not even a little bit?
40:24They have been orders from the marquise
40:26and it has been very strict.
40:28Well,
40:30I admit that I was very excited.
40:33I'm very sorry, really.
40:36Not even the church?
40:37Please.
40:39I'm not good at inviting guests.
40:41Look, I know I invited you
40:43and it hurts me to say it, but
40:45they have been orders from Mrs. Cruz
40:47and they have been firm.
40:49Neither the church, nor the banquet, nor the party.
40:54But after a lot of insistence,
40:56I have managed to get
40:58at least some to come.
41:01Mr. Pellicer will be able to come,
41:03Mr. Baeza and Mrs. Petra,
41:05because they are the heads of service.
41:09Also Mrs. Darre,
41:11for being the personal maid of the marquise.
41:14And after a lot of insistence,
41:16I have also managed to get Maria and Teresa
41:18to come in an exceptional way.
41:22And Simona and I?
41:24Can't we be another session?
41:26I'm very sorry, I would like more
41:28if they could attend, but ...
41:31Hanna, I don't think it's fair.
41:33It's your wedding, you should be able to choose
41:36who you invite and who you don't.
41:38And besides, at the wedding of Miss Catalina
41:40there was no problem that it was all the service.
41:43That's what I thought, but
41:45according to the marquise,
41:47at Catalina's wedding she was only going to attend the family
41:49and at this wedding she will attend the aristocracy,
41:52who would neither understand nor accept
41:54to share a table and a tablecloth with
41:56the servants of the house.
42:00I'm very sorry, it's not in my hands.
42:01I can't do anything else.
42:03Don't worry, girl,
42:05I'll do everything I can.
42:07Of course.
42:09The important thing is that it's going to be a wonderful day.
42:12That's right.
42:14You'll tell them with hairs and signs
42:16that everything has gone wrong.
42:18Come on, Hanna, smile.
42:20The last thing would be
42:22that this setback makes your wedding bitter.
42:24Well, look, this is going to be almost an advantage.
42:27Because many times the bride has to be so aware
42:29of the guests that they overwhelm her.
42:32Yes, Hanna, and in the end you are going to give each other the yes I want
42:35and no one will be able to separate you.
42:37Of course.
42:39The only two important people that day
42:41are you.
42:43Well, and the priest.
42:45Yes, of course, that one too.
42:49Thank you all.
42:51Really.
42:53And what did Aunt Cruz tell you?
42:57I didn't give her time to reply.
42:59I left.
43:01Although in part she is right
43:03because organizing a wedding in such a short time
43:05is a nonsense.
43:07Manuel doesn't need great ostentations, uncle.
43:10But he is the heir.
43:12And the marquis has many commitments.
43:14Although that matters a lot to Manuel.
43:16Yeah.
43:18Well, the important thing is that the wedding goes on.
43:19Although you cause your aunt a lot of trouble,
43:21it will not be the first or the last celebration
43:23that goes ahead in a few days.
43:25Yes.
43:27So every year she does the same for her anniversary.
43:29You are absolutely right about that.
43:31She spends weeks saying that there is nothing to celebrate,
43:34that preparing her birthday makes her older,
43:36and then the last week she changes her mind
43:38and everything is in a hurry.
43:40And despite that,
43:42those parties always go well.
43:44People save money,
43:46they have fun,
43:47and they always go well.
43:49People keep a good memory of them.
43:51But of course,
43:53a wedding is not the same as a birthday.
43:55And that plays against us.
43:58Yeah.
44:00May I?
44:05But they have invited representatives
44:07of the main houses, right?
44:09Yes.
44:11And that will pay for part of the damage.
44:13But the grudge of those who have not been invited
44:15will last a long time.
44:17Good thing it's a wedding with few guests.
44:22But weren't you complaining right now
44:25about the opposite?
44:27Yes, Curro.
44:29I will deny having said this.
44:32Not always the interests of the Marquis
44:34coincide with mine.
44:36You know I don't like
44:38ostentatious parties.
44:40Like Manuel?
44:42That's why I will deny having said it.
44:43Thank God, outside the family
44:45there are not so many guests.
44:47And of the family,
44:49those of us who are at the promenade.
44:51My sisters will not come,
44:53nor Leonor, nor Margarita,
44:55much less Fernando's children from Canada.
45:00And Martina?
45:02No one has notified her.
45:04Maybe we will arrive on time
45:06if we send her a telegram.
45:08You know Julia's address.
45:10Calm down. Yes, she is already notified.
45:11About the wedding.
45:13Thank you, Curro.
45:16Yes, because
45:18if Aunt Cruz's favorite niece
45:20doesn't come to the wedding
45:22because she is meeting Julia's family,
45:24Troya could be in trouble
45:26with the mess she got.
45:28Then she will come.
45:30Yes, I hope so.
45:32She hasn't confirmed it to you?
45:34Well, Martina confirmed to me
45:36that she had arrived
45:38and I told her she had to come back immediately.
45:39Yes, it is true that the communication was bad
45:41and sometimes it was cut off,
45:43but I'm sure she heard me.
45:45I hope so.
45:56What could they say?
45:58That they understood it
46:00and that I shouldn't worry.
46:02But you had to have seen
46:04their faces of disappointment.
46:06I'm sorry.
46:08I still have time to talk to my mother.
46:10No, Manuel.
46:12I don't want you to do that
46:14because that would mean
46:16that you are going to have a discussion
46:18and it is the last thing I want before our wedding.
46:20That's why I didn't want us to go down to dinner with everyone.
46:23Don't worry.
46:27At least I managed to get a few people to come.
46:30Really?
46:32And how is that?
46:34Well, your mother allowed
46:35Mr. Rómulo and Mr. Pellicer to come,
46:38but of course,
46:40I had to ask Mrs. Petra to come
46:42as part of the service staff.
46:44Well, something is something.
46:47Although I know you would have liked
46:49Maria Fernández to be there.
46:52In fact, she is coming.
46:54And I have also managed
46:56to get Teresa and Mrs. Pia to come.
46:58But well, I'm going to miss
47:00Mrs. Simona, Mrs. Candela,
47:02Lope, Vera ...
47:03It's ugly.
47:05It is very ugly that they allow so few guests in the church.
47:09Your mother was very strict.
47:11Yes, but it is unfair.
47:13At my sister Catalina's wedding,
47:15almost all the service staff could come.
47:17Why not ours? What has changed?
47:19That's what I told her, but
47:21your mother answered me by telling me
47:23that at Catalina's wedding,
47:25only the close family was going to go and ...
47:27I didn't want our wedding
47:29and its renowned guests
47:31to have the wrong impression.
47:33It's either her or us.
47:35Manuel, I don't agree either.
47:37But she's right.
47:39Is she right?
47:41I don't know.
47:43Well, you will tell me what explanation there is
47:45that you have to expel your own guests
47:47at your own wedding.
47:49You are the heir.
47:51Someday you will be the Marquis of ...
47:53I'm sorry.
47:56It was a secret, as we had planned.
48:00I told them down there that they couldn't come.
48:01Doña Pia gave me a piece of advice
48:03that opened my eyes.
48:06The only important thing that day
48:08is that we are going to say in front of everyone
48:10that we love each other
48:12and that no one will be able to separate us.
48:19I have something for you.
48:24You see, before ...
48:26When you came, you were so sad
48:28that I thought it wasn't the right time, but ...
48:30I think it will make you happy.
48:33Manuel, tell me at once.
48:49It's a gift from my parents.
48:54I know what you're going to say,
48:56that they are ...
48:57that they are too recharged,
48:59that they will surely be old ...
49:01Shut up, Manuel.
49:03They are perfect.
49:06Do you like them?
49:09They have diamond incrustations.
49:12I like the detail of your parents.
49:16But you wouldn't have chosen them in your life,
49:18would you?
49:21Well, you know I'm much simpler than all this,
49:23but ...
49:25it must have cost them a fortune.
49:28But I don't care.
49:30I will get used to these alliances,
49:32how to lie about my past
49:34and everything that is needed,
49:36because that is not important.
49:42Manuel,
49:44the only thing that matters to me is you.
49:55I love you.
49:58Hanna Expósito.
50:01And I love you,
50:03Manuel de Luján.
50:28Do you see him?
50:30There is no one.
50:32Teresa, I don't like this at all.
50:34What if Mrs. Marquesa comes?
50:36Mrs. Marquesa has sat down to have breakfast
50:38and will be there for a long time.
50:40Come on, hurry up.
50:42I don't want anyone to see us here.
50:44Maybe Mrs. Arcos will come up.
50:46Shut up and don't be a whore.
50:49What are you doing?
50:51Shut up and come.
50:53Come, listen.
50:55It sounds hollow.
50:57Is it a secret passage?
50:59I don't know, Vera.
51:01But what is clear is that there is something hidden behind there.
51:03Let me see.
51:05Don't try it.
51:07Yesterday I was for a long time and I didn't get anything.
51:09When did you find it?
51:11Well, when you went to change the water
51:13to clean the crystals and you never came back.
51:15Hey, don't blame me.
51:17I met Mrs. Arcos and she had a dozen more important tasks
51:19than cleaning the crystals.
51:21Let's see.
51:23What are you doing?
51:25I don't know, there has to be some way to open it.
51:27A secret mechanism, a lever, something.
51:30Well, you haven't seen a few jewels.
51:33Instead of laughing, you give me a hand.
51:35Let's move this.
51:48Come in.
51:50I don't need you anymore, Maria.
51:52I found the dresses myself.
51:54I'm sorry to disappoint you, dear, but I'm not Maria.
51:57Sorry, I thought you were one of the maids.
52:01How can I help you?
52:03Nothing, really.
52:05I came to visit you,
52:07since we haven't had the opportunity to talk to each other calmly.
52:11And since I'm here,
52:13maybe I can help you.
52:16But I guess you're choosing
52:18what you're going to wear at your brother's wedding.
52:20Am I wrong?
52:23Both dresses are beautiful.
52:25But clearly, I would choose this one.
52:29Why clearly?
52:31The court will conceal your state of prejudice.
52:35I don't have to hide anything from anyone.
52:37Surely.
52:39But this court is currently occupying
52:41all the covers of French fashion magazines.
52:46You're welcome.
52:48I know that this type of event is not comfortable for a pregnant woman.
52:53I'm sorry.
52:55It's just that
52:57it's been a long time since the last time I saw you.
53:00You were just a girl and now
53:02you're a woman.
53:04A woman who's going to be a mother.
53:07How old are you now?
53:10I've always had a good eye for these things.
53:13I would venture to say that you're in the middle of the pregnancy.
53:17Something like that, yes.
53:18Well, at least you've been through the first trimester's annoyances.
53:21You're in the best moment, no doubt.
53:25Excuse me, does it bother you that we talk about pregnancies?
53:28No, it's just that I don't usually talk about my pregnancy
53:31without being asked about the father of the child.
53:33And why should I ask you?
53:35That's not my problem.
53:37No, it's not.
53:39Don't worry.
53:41All those rumors that feed the liars
53:44can scandalize many.
53:45But not me.
53:47And why is that?
53:49You won't be the first woman who gets pregnant
53:51before going through the altar.
53:55Are you talking about yourself?
53:58You got pregnant before you got married.
54:07I'm sure that in the lady's room
54:09there's a fake wall.
54:11Yes.
54:12And behind that fake wall
54:14there's probably a secret door
54:16that also connects to a secret passage.
54:19We've been looking for a mechanism
54:21that can move the piece of wood
54:23in front of the hollow wall.
54:25We have to decide who will accompany you to the altar.
54:28I thought that
54:30Mr. Baeza could accompany me.
54:32A butler.
54:34Do you have someone in mind?
54:36Your uncle Lorenzo.
54:38A decorated military man
54:40with a title
54:42member of the family.
54:44What else can we ask for?
54:46You should be grateful.
54:48Grateful? For what?
54:50For accompanying an insolent woman
54:52that I can't even see?
54:54My friends are going to laugh at me.
54:56Lorenzo, stop it.
54:58I'm wishing that this ends at once.
55:00Your wedding dress.
55:02What do you mean, my wedding dress?
55:04What?
55:06What surprises you so much?
55:08You'll have to wear a wedding dress to church, right?
55:09It's too simple.
55:11You have to wear something that's up to the task.
55:13But you're on the other side of Spain.
55:15Weren't you in Córdoba,
55:17at your friend Piluca's house?
55:19Yes, but we decided to go to Santander
55:21and here I am.
55:23Martina, you have to come back.
55:25It's Manuel.
55:27Good thing almost everyone has a phone
55:29because many haven't received the invitation.
55:32And you can also give explanations
55:34about who the bride is.
55:36There aren't that many,
55:37but you have to know who she belongs to.
55:39Yes, I think it's good that you give them,
55:41even if they're fake.
55:43What do you say?
55:45Manuel, are you okay?
55:47There's one day left for your wedding
55:49and I see you as if it's over.
55:51I'm sick of my mother cheating on us.
55:53I swear there are times
55:55when I'd take her by the hand
55:57and I'd go with her.
55:59Far away, without telling anyone.
56:01And why don't you do it?
