[fire crackling]
[friend] You always say that after your parents died,
your grandmother took care of you.
But you took care of her more than she took care of you.
You've taken care of people your whole life, Violeta.
9 MONTHS EARLIER
That's what you do. Because you like it.
But it has a negative side, too.
It makes you a magnet that attracts people with problems.
You make yourself indispensable to them.
[inhales sharply]
And you can't be indispensable. It's exhausting.
-[Violeta sniffs] -[friend] Which is why…
[sighs] …you want to leave, but when you try to,
you hurt them.
Without intending to, you do a lot of damage.
-[Violeta sighs] -[friend] That's what happened.
[low, stirring notes playing]
[Violeta sniffs[
[sighs]
[sniffs]
-I have to call the police. -[friend] No, you don't.
-[Violeta] They'll question me anyway. -So what if they question you?
Did anyone see you in his car?
I don't think.
[friend] Did anyone see you on the bridge?
I don't know.
Let's assume they didn't.
And- and I'll say that… that we were together all night.
I drove you home from the club.
That's what we'll say.
[music builds to a low, ominous hum]
[man] Come on, get in.
How many guys since we broke up?
Stop the car! I wanna get out now.

GOOD MORNING!
WANT TO TAKE A RIDE IN MY CONVERTIBLE?
[phone chimes]
WHAT ARE YOU UP TO TODAY?
I HAVE A MUSEUM VISIT WITH THE KIDS
[phone chimes]
I'VE GOT A GREAT PLAN FOR TONIGHT
[China] Only a mother could understand how deeply I was suffering at that time.
I'M SEEING FRIENDS… GIRLS' NIGHT OUT!
[China] I couldn't sleep.
I stayed up all night thinking how to get my son back.
SORRY. ANOTHER DAY.
[China] As it turned out, the solution was right in front of my eyes.
Elmer's heart was, as they say, brand new.
I just had to give him the slightest push
to teach him that a person who loves
is a person… who suffers.

[poignant string music playing]
[music builds to final note]
THE GARDENER
[phone ringing]
He clearly lives in Pontevedra or the surrounding area.
Do you think it's a serial killer?
Doesn't it creep you out a little to say, "serial killer"?
Yeah.
-Like a chill running down your spine. -[Torres sighs]
Do you think we should give this to Homicide now?
No.
-I mean, there isn't very much to give. -[Torres exhales]
Yeah, you're right. [sighs]
Let's find out a bit more.
All right.
When it comes to serial killers, what do you know?
Well, I, uh… A while back I read a book written by this expert in the FBI.
You?
Nothing.
So, I guess we're gonna need some help, huh?
[Torres] Mm-hmm.
This strong need for power and control
means that all psychopaths have a much greater propensity
for antisocial acts,
as many of the characteristics
that are monumentally crucial to inhibiting such violent behavior
are diminished or quite simply absent in these people.
[bell rings]
Thank you for your attention. See you next week.
[students murmuring]
-Hi there. -Hello.
Detectives Torres and Carrera from the Pontevedra Police.
How can I help you?
Could you examine these documents and give us your opinion?
[Carrera tapping]
I don't think this is the work of a psychopathic criminal.
And how did you reach that conclusion?
A psychopath's crimes are driven by their impulses or needs,
which compel the selection of the same types of victims.
And here, you have three women
of different ages and physical characteristics.
Then you have six men who don't share any commonalities either.
This group is too varied.
Could it be a psychopath who likes variety?
[professor] No.
What's more, the time gaps between these disappearances
don't match this particular type of psychopath.
[professor inhales, sighs]
The individual responsible isn't a serial killer.
[intriguing music playing]
[Carrera] There are no connections between the victims.
[students murmuring]
So the motives for the murders have to be different too.
Maybe somebody had a motive to go ahead and end their lives.
But that person isn't necessarily our killer.
Or he was just doing his job. [grunts]
[inquisitive, string music playing]
-He's a professional. -A professional?
Perhaps they're in the drug world?
Or a guy who was hired to do one and then stuck around.
-For the good food and sunshine. -For whatever.
He saw a niche in the market, an opportunity for work…
Not much of one. Only nine cases in seven years.
There may have been more. [sighs]
And the price depends on the demand after all.
What did you study?
Economics in Santiago. Where do we start?
At the end.
We'll figure out who had a motive to kill Mon Santís and the swimmer.
[bell rings]
[Carrera] Sounds good.
[music ends with a flourish]
[Violeta] Please take his hand, Carlota. Thank you! Who wants to go to the museum?
-[kids] I do! -You! Very good.
-[gasps softly] -[child 1] Hold my hand. We're walking.
-Come this way. Hold hands. -[child 1 chanting] I'm so excited!
-I'm so excited! -[child 2] Me too!
-[guide] Hello. -[Violeta] How are you?
[guide] Hi, kids! Who wants to meet Trea, the prehistoric girl?
[kids shouting] Me! I do!
-[Violeta] Would you watch them a sec? -[guide] Yes.
Stay with our guide for a minute. I'll be right back. Okay.
-Uh, hi. -[Elmer] Hey.
What are you doing here?
I was in the neighborhood and remembered you were coming to the museum.
-Hm. -I have to tell you something and thought…
…I'd meet you.
I don't have time now. I have to watch the kids.
I have a plan for tonight. You're gonna love it.
I'm busy tonight, Elmer. I told you.
[kids chattering]
But I haven't told you the idea yet.
[guide] In a minute, I'll show you where they lived.
[Violeta] Pardon me. Would you mind taking them inside?
-I'll be right behind you. -That's fine.
[Violeta] I'll be right there, kids. Be good.
-[kids] Okay. -[Violeta] Thank you.
[child 1] Carlota, wait for me!
[Elmer] There's a meteor shower tonight.
The sky will be totally clear. It'll be incredible to see.
And it's not something that happens very often.
So I figured I'd pick you up, and we'd watch it together.
Sounds fun, right?
I'm meeting my friends. I'm sorry.
-I already told you. -The meteor shower will only be tonight.
There won't be one tomorrow. But you can see your friends tomorrow.
Elmer, you're making this super awkward.
Are you angry? I think you're angry.
Yes, I'm really angry. Yes.
I'm angry you came here without even telling me.
Especially when I'm working. This isn't the right moment.
Sorry.
Don't worry about it. We're good, okay? Really.
But you have to respect my space. Do you understand?
[mellow music playing]
[chuckling] Okay. We'll talk tomorrow.
-Until then. -Goodbye.
[China] What would happen if, let's say, Elmer begins to lose his faculties
and it was impossible for him to consent to the operation?
What then?
We would still need Elmer's informed consent.
[inhales] Uh, so, please don't judge me. I just… I feel really anxious.
[doctor] Don't worry, Mrs. Jurado. I'm not judging you.
We've had cases in which patients have declined to undergo treatment.
But they almost always end up going through with it.
[inhales sharply] That's my only wish for Elmer, but it's…
Well, you met him. My son is unusual. He goes his own way.
[doctor] From what I can see of your relationship,
you're obviously important to Elmer.
And I trust he'll see reason soon.
But- But he seems so intense now, Doctor.
[chuckles] It may turn out the tumor grows larger
and all of his emotions get even more extreme.
It's possible that what he hates today, he will love tomorrow and vice versa.
-[low, unsettling music playing] -[China sighs]
[China] If you'd said you were staying in, I would've made some dinner for you.
No, it's all right.
Look, I understand you, son. I really do.
But I… I think in return,
you should also make the effort to understand me.
-You ruined something really special. -[China] I know.
What I don't know is what you're doing here.
Instead of running off to be with her.
Why would you sit with your horrible mother?
Tonight she's out with friends.
That's strange…
Why do you say that?
[China] 'Cause when you're falling in love,
all you want is to be with that person.
That's how it is.
And your friends? Why would you hang out with your friends if you're in love?
-No. -I don't think it's strange.
Well, if you say there isn't a problem…
-There isn't any problem, Mom. -Sure, of course.
The question is
whether this girl feels for you what I know you feel for her.
Which I don't think is in doubt, or is it?
No, it's not.
-Come on, cheers. -[all] Cheers.
-[friend 1] To girls' night! -[friend 2] Yeah.
I'm going to the bathroom. Beer makes me pee.
So, one glass of beer. Just one. [laughs]
-No, she's going to dance. -Okay then. That girl…
["Lose my Mind" by SaraoMusic playing]
How's your gardener?
-Elmer. -Mmm. Elmer, yeah, yeah.
It was weird for him to show up today. Pretty stalkery.
I shouldn't have ever told you anything.
No, come on. Come on.
It feels to me like he's keeping track of you a little too much.
A bit like Xoan.
They're nothing like each other.
[man] It's all your fucking fault!
Go fuck yourself.
You know I just wanna protect you.
[Violeta] I know.
And thanks, but I'm fine.
It just looks like you're making the same mistakes.
And there are consequences.
[song continues]
Tell me what you're trying to say.
[inhales]
When things get bad for you, you always run to me.
That was a shitty thing to say.
[friend 2] You know what? I actually think he looks good for his age.
Really good. Or not?
There's no paper in the bathroom. And it's over there.
Whatever.
[man screaming]
[boat horn honks]
-[wife] Hi, good morning. -[Carrera] Good morning.
-Detective Carrera, right? Ah. -That's right.
How have you been?
Well… [sighs] …it's been hard.
But we're getting through it. Little by little.
-I'm glad. -[wife] Hm.
So I just wanted to update you some more on your husband's case.
Have you found him?
We've combed the coast, the bottom of the river, and… nothing.
So they've decided to call off the search. I'm sorry.
You've done everything possible.
Thank you, Detective. Really.
It's a bit strange, though.
What is?
[Carrera] That the sea hasn't given back his body.
[inhales] Well,
sometimes, that's what happens.
Hm. Yeah.
Even so, we've decided
to continue investigating a little further.
Well, thanks again.
Why?
[foreboding guitar music playing]
Because we haven't ruled out other possibilities.
Your husband, did he happen to have any enemies?
Anyone who'd wanna hurt him?
[exhales] Gosh, no. I don't know.
I mean he never told me anything.
[music ends]
So right, if, uh… If you have any other ideas,
no matter how far-fetched, make sure to call me. Okay?
Okay, appreciate your help.
Thank you.
That was a friend of Mon's.
The only person Mon had a problem with was Violeta. Hm.
-Okay. -He says they had a few tense run-ins.
She lied to us, but it might not have been enough to kill someone over.
Got anything better?
I went to see the swimmer's wife.
She looks ten years younger and doesn't seem bothered
about us calling off the search for the body.
-She doesn't miss him? -[Carrera sighs] The son doesn't either.
I went to their house and spoke to the neighbors.
The swimmer was a monster.
Not long ago, an ambulance came to treat the kid.
[Torres] So he was an abusive father.
[Carrera] Which is a good reason to want someone dead.
[rhythmic, suspenseful music builds]
ABUSER
-[music continues] -[birds chirping]
[Violeta] Hello.
[tense music fades out]
Hi. How are you?
Good.
I've passed by hundreds of times but never walked this way. Wow.
-Yes, it's a very special place. -Mm.
-Come here. I'll show you something. -Okay.
Wow, this is incredible, huh?
Yes. It's a rockery that we made.
You can bring your kids here anytime.
Might be a nice place for one of your excursions.
Yes. They'd like this.
Besides, kids always like to get their hands dirty.
-Right. -And they can help me find some worms.
They tend to hide this time of year.
Here they are.
-Grossed out? -Mmm… Maybe a little. [chuckles]
Here.
-So how was your night? -Good! Really good.
We had a great night.
How was the meteor shower?
Good.
-I thought of you. -[softly] Hm.
Now I'll scatter them around. Like in this pot.
-Because worms actually aerate the soil. -[phone chimes]
Then, all of the plants will flower a whole lot better.
The soil won't be compacted…
CAN WE MEET?
And no one's gonna put them there. We have to do it ourselves.
Something wrong?
IT'S FINE.
Uh, no. It's, uh… It's Catuxa.
We argued at the bar, and she says she wants to meet up.
-Hm. -[Violeta sighs]
Mm, but you told me that you… you had fun together last night.
Well, yeah. And so, what does that have to do with anything?
MEET IN THE PARK
-Huh? -Uh, well, nothing.
-That's what you said, just now. -Yeah.
I mean, I planned to spend the morning with you.
[sighs] Yeah, but I need to talk to her. It's very important.
You and I… We'll meet another day, 'kay?
-Yeah. -Bye.
Come on, Milky. [kisses]
-Let's go. Come on. [kisses] -[Milky barking]
[ominous droning slowly builds, fades]
-[Milky barks] -[Violeta] Let's go.
The board of the casino couldn't begin to argue.
-[dog barking outside] -No, no, no.
[inhales] And so we are… ready…
[barking continues]
So we'll have a beautiful space for next month's charity benefit.
-[woman 1] Such great news. -[woman 2] I look forward to seeing it.
[suspenseful chord playing]
Excuse me, but I have another appointment.
[Milky barking]
[crows cawing]
[Milky barks]
[Catuxa clicks tongue]
Very good. Okay, let go.
[Milky barking]
[inhales] Okay, so I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have said that stuff. I was completely outta line when I…
I didn't mean it to sound so bad, you know?
[inhales]
Yeah, I'm sorry too. [sighs]
I've been a bit anxious lately, and I lost it.
But it's totally fine.
-[Milky barks] -[Sabela] Good boy!
[sweetly] Milky? Hello. Do you remember me?
Here. Here you go. Hm? Remember us?
You'll take a walk with me, won't you? Look, come. I have more. Come with me.
Come with me. Good boy.
So, are we friends? Are we not friends? Girl, what?
-[chuckles] What do you think? -I don't know. You haven't given me a hug.
-I'm just sitting here alone. -Ah, poor thing needs a hug. I get it.
-[Catuxa] Oh, yeah! -[Violeta] Okay. Good.
-You're so mean, you know? A real pain. -[chuckling] I know.
-Yeah. -Hey, do you see Milky?
I don't know.
-You threw the ball, right? -Uh-huh. That way.
-That way? -[Catuxa] Yeah.
-Milky? -Milky? [whistles] Hey, come here!
Milky?
[suspenseful, rhythmic music playing]
Milky?!
-[Catuxa whistles] -Come here!
[Catuxa] Milky?
Milky?
-[Catuxa] Here, boy! -Come here, sweetheart.
[breathes shakily]
Hi. Sorry, have you seen a dog?
He's small, white with brown spots…
Uh, my friend threw the ball that way I think. Have you seen him or…?
-[woman] No, we haven't seen him. -[man] Sorry. We haven't seen anything.
I don't understand this. He comes when I call him, always.
What if he was stolen?
[suspenseful music builds, slowly fades]
[knocking hard]
-[maid] Can I help you? -That won't be necessary.
Milky?
Milky?!
[Sabela] Why are you shouting like that?
Where's my dog?
[inhales]
I don't like animals.
I'm allergic.
If you do anything to hurt him, you will regret it. [inhales sharply]
[chuckles]
I don't doubt it.
[inhales]
-That's what you did to Xoan, isn't it? -[Violeta, angrily] Where is my dog?
[exhales forcefully]
Where's Milky?
[sighs]
Okay, fine.
I'll tell you what really happened.
[muffled club music playing]
-[rhythmic dance music plays louder] -[club guests murmuring]
[car engine starts up]
-[man] Can I drive you home? -What are you doing here, Xoan?
[Xoan] A friend told me you'd be here. And, uh, I thought we could talk.
Well, no thanks. I just ordered a ride.
Cancel it. I've been thinking about something, and I want your thoughts.
-Xoan. -[Xoan] You've always given good advice.
And we can talk as friends. Come on, get in.
[pleading] Please?
[Violeta] I should never have gotten in the car.
It was a mistake.
[inhales]
Didn't you tell the police that you weren't on the bridge?
I lied.
[low, unsettling notes playing]
[Xoan] I'm gonna fix up my dad's sailboat.
And when it's done, I'll take a trip around the world.
That sounds great.
Will you come with me?
No.
Xoan, that's your dream. Not mine.
[quietly] Right.
Your dream is to completely abandon me.
Come on. Please don't start.
[Xoan] So you can go back to your rowing guys.
[Violeta sighs]
How many guys you fucked since we broke up?
-A hundred. -[Xoan scoffs]
I fucked a hundred guys. What do you think?
You're a slut, that's what I think.
[sighs] I'm getting out. Please stop the car.
-[engine revs] -[Violeta] Xoan, what are you doing? Stop.
Stop the car! I wanna get out now!
Stop the car, you're scaring me!
-Xoan, stop the car! Stop the car now! -Stop!
-[tires screech] -[Violeta screams]
[Xoan] I'm sorry, but you make me say those things.
Stop the car. Stop the car. Stop the car!
-No one will love you like I do. -Stop the-- Oh, my God!
I hope no one loves me the way you do because I can't take more of this. Get it?
I will never in my whole fucking life get back with you, so stop the car!
[brakes squeal]
Do you realize that you almost killed us?
It's all your fucking fault!
If you want to die, just kill yourself, asshole.
That's exactly what I'm gonna do. Watch me!
Violeta!
[fast-paced, suspenseful string music playing]
[Xoan] Watch me!
Watch me!
Go on. Do it!
Do it! Go on, jump! I'll watch you!
Yeah, you want me to kill myself?
I know you're not gonna do it. You're too weak.
I know you too well, Xoan. You just want my attention.
That's all you're doing. Begging for attention.
You're a fucking mama's boy.
You are such a bitch, Violeta.
[sighs angrily] You are a bitch.
And you'll die alone.
-[music cuts out] -[Violeta exhales]
It was an accident.
-[Xoan screams] -[Violeta] Xoan!
[scream echoes]
[inhales] Why didn't you tell this story of yours to the police?
-[Violeta panting] -[thunder rumbles]
[Violeta] I was really scared.
I didn't think they'd believe me.
[rumbling grows louder, fades]
[somber string music playing]
[clicks tongue, inhales]
Get out.
[Violeta] And Milky?
Sabela, where's Milky? Give him back.
[breathing shakily]
Please, do it.
I wanted you to feel a piece of the pain that I feel every day now.
[Sabela sighs]
[chuckles]
Bitch.
Take your fucking dog.
[Milky barking]
[barking echoes]
[Violeta sighs]
Did she believe you?
I don't know.
[Xoan] Violeta!
[thunder rumbles]
Jump! Go on! Just fucking do it!
You piece of shit.
You are such a bitch, Violeta.
[rhythmic, suspenseful music playing]
You are a bitch.
And you'll die alone.

CALLING VIOLETA
[phone ringing]
[voicemail] Hello. This is Violeta.
I can't come to the phone, but leave a message after the beep.
[music echoes, slowly fades out]
-Do you think that we did the right thing? -Fuck yes.
Sabela doesn't have proof. It's her word against yours.
And I'll support you no matter what. Ya know?
Thank you.
-[buzzer rings] -[Milky barks]
I don't want to see anyone.
-[Milky barks] -[Violeta sighs]
[door opens]
[buzzer rings]
[Catuxa] Well, the man of the hour.
-Is Violeta here? -[Catuxa] No. She went out.
-[Elmer] Where'd she go? -Don't know. She didn't say.
She's not answering my calls or responding to my texts.
[muffled ringtone playing]
-Is she there? -[Catuxa] No.
-Her phone is. Why's it ringing? -[Catuxa] I guess she left it.
-She isn't here. -[Elmer] Let me through.
-I need to talk to her. Please. -I don't care what you need.
[Catuxa sighs]
You don't want to see me?
You don't take my calls or text me back. I don't understand what's going on.
I had a really awful day, Elmer. Understand?
But what happened?
-[tense music playing] -It doesn't matter now.
You need to understand I don't have to be there for you whenever.
And that I won't explain everything that I do or don't do.
I just want you to tell me if any problems come up between us.
Fine, but I just don't feel up for it.
Can we have this conversation another time, please?
Okay?
I'll call you.
-Okay? -[Elmer sniffs]

[China] Thank you.
-[car door shuts] -[China] Good evening.
[inhales] The girl came to my house earlier
Yes. Like I said, it's complicated, but I'm on top of it.
In two weeks' time, you see, my Xoan would've been 30 years old.
If by then, that little girl hasn't disappeared,
then the police will hear everything that I know about you.
[menacing chords playing]
That would really not be wise on your part, Mrs. Costeira.
Two weeks.
Have a good evening.

-[seabirds calling] -[metallic clanging]
[Torres] Do you have something to clean glasses?
I don't know. You can look.
-[Torres] What is all this? -Things that appeal to me, so I take them.
[Torres] What do you take them for?
For nothing. It's a tick.
[quietly] Uh-huh.
I've been thinking about what you said.
That I was missing in the Department of Missing Persons.
[inhales]
I was just mad. I shouldn't have said that.
[Torres] Sure. But you were right.
And the part that keeps me up at night is that no one forced me to go missing.
These past two weeks… [inhales]
…have been the best weeks I've had in many years.
For me as well.
Oh, shit.
[engine starts]
[plucky, suspenseful music playing]
THE GARDENER TREES AND PLANTS
A police officer came to see me.
They suspect something, I know it.
[inhales slowly] Get a cart.
A cart.
So what did they say?
That they're calling off the search for my husband.
Ah, well that's very good.
That's great. Get another one.
Because in three months, the file will get archived
and start gathering dust.
No. They're not archiving the case.
-How do you know? -Because she said so.
And she asked if I knew anyone who would've wanted to hurt him.
And what did you say? Take another one.
That… [sighs] …I had no idea.
So if you don't talk, they won't be able to prove what we did.
But if they investigate, they'll find out about our son,
the cash, and they'll catch me before long.
Your son is very restless. He's clumsy and hurts himself.
And you have a gambling issue. That's all that you have to say.
You trust me too much.
[China grunts]
Think.
The police catch you,
and your kid goes to live with his father's family.
So not too much.
[uneasy music playing]
Let's get you one of these.
[grunts]
These three together? What do you think?
It's great. [chuckles]
[China] They'll look beautiful.
[exhaling forcefully]
[coach] Okay, great work, girls.
[clapping] Hang in there! Come on, you got this. Stretch those legs.
You're pulling well, come on.
Alright. [claps] That's it.
Hit the locker room. Go change.
[breathing heavily]
[Catuxa] Shall we?
Let's shower and go out, okay?
I'm not going out.
But a girls' night is the best thing after a breakup.
[out of breath] We didn't break up. [continues panting]
You didn't break up, but… [sighs]
…based on how you're rowing, you must be thinking about it.
[friend] My advice? It's better to dump them before you get too attached.
-[Violeta groans] -You're ridiculous.
-[Violeta gasps, sighs] -[Catuxa chuckles]
[Violeta exhaling forcefully]
[sighs] And blacking myself out will make it go away, huh?
You'll forget about it for a while.
-[Violeta sighs] -[friend] What do you say?
[Catuxa] Yeah, come on.
POLICE
[Carrera] Don't you think it's strange
that the swimmer's widow buys her plants at the store
that the mother of the guy who was the last one to see Mon owns?
It's all circumstantial.
Come on, she even has a van with a side door like my baker does.
But we can't place him there.
I mean, we have no witnesses, no proof… Nothing. Not a thing.
Wait. Wait a minute.
[Carrera] Torres, look. I found it right by Mon's car.
-What is this? -[Carrera] You'll see in a second.
Look.
Automatic sprinkler points.
He was there.
He made Mon Santís disappear.
Do you still think that the swimmer's wife went to the nursery to buy plants?
The gardener has a business other than plants.
We're going to get them.
[inhales]
Shall we celebrate?
[tender music playing]
Are you sure?
[inhales deeply] Yes, I am.
And you?
[sighs]
-[girls on phone] One against one! -That little bitch.
-[friend] Another shot! -[Catuxa] But I'm not paying
[China] Here, have some food. I made it for you.
[Elmer sighs]
The police are asking questions about the swimmer.
-Okay. -We have to be careful, Elmer.
I will be.
[sniffs] Aren't you worried?
No.
Then what's wrong?
It's not that. It's…
Is it about your girlfriend yet again?
Mm-hmm.
-She's not well tonight. -Oh, no? What is it?
-I don't know, but she's not feeling well. -There's nothing wrong with her, Elmer.
She's perfectly fine.
[dance music playing on phone]
[music stops]
And so? It doesn't mean anything.
Oh, no? A person who says one thing and then does something else?
That's not right, Elmer.
But now what? I don't know what to do in a relationship.
Okay, I'll explain, son.
When a person is interested in you
or, um, cares for you or has a crush on you,
they want to spend time with you.
If they don't have time for you, then they're not interested.
["My Body is a Cage" by Arcade Fire playing softly]
And I'm hurt, Elmer.
Because you made a decision that was difficult.
It hurts me that she hasn't responded in the same way.
With love.
