Dark Desire (Oscuro deseo)

Zoe, get out of there, honey.

- Honey, get out of there. - No.

Please, Dad.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you.

Where's the birthday girl?

Behind the couch.

Happy birthday, dear Zoe.

Happy birthday to you.

Come on, honey, don't be like that. Make a wish, okay?

Time out.

- Oh, no. Leo, not today. - Please, honey.

Time out.

- Please. - I need to take this call, honey.

It's from prison.

Leonardo Solares.

How did that happen?

Okay, don't move anything. I'm on my way.

What now?

DARK DESIRE

An inmate killed himself.

When Leonardo was a prosecutor in Cuernavaca, there was a case

of a five-year-old girl who was raped...

and brutally strangled.

Her name was Leslie Delgado, remember?

Yes, I do.

Darío is the son of that asshole who raped

and murdered that little girl.

He got 30 years in prison, but he didn't do the time.

That coward shot himself in front of his wife... and Darío.

But Leonardo was doing his job.

Why is he to blame?

The one who committed that crime

- was Darío's father. - Yes, you and I see it that way.

Tell that to a 15-year-old kid who saw his dad put a gun in his mouth

and pull the trigger.

So, what should I do?

Treat him as any other student.

He must not suspect that you know about his father's case.

Erase from your head the names of Antonio Guerra

and Leslie Delgado.

Do you think that man was innocent?

Alma, please.

Read the file thoroughly.

I want you to understand that Darío is not in your life by mere chance.

Do you understand that?

I didn't realize it, but I was turning

into the typical asshole who doesn't have time for his family.

My relationship with Alma was going down the drain.

Anyway.

I'm doing something about it and...

I'm thinking about taking some time off from the court. What do you think?

What?

Are you really going to retire?

Esteban, you're not listening to me.

What is it?

I've been reviewing Leslie Delgado's case.

Why?

I know that case was very important to you.

Every case is important to me.

But when you close one, you move on to the next.

I don't have time to think about the past.

Especially if it involves Cuernavaca. I left many years ago.

Why are you bringing that up?

Because you were the prosecutor at the time and I have some doubts.

You did the investigation,

what doubts can you possibly have?

I didn't finish the case.

Someone else took over the investigation when I got shot in the leg.

I was on medical leave, remember?

I just found out Brenda was a witness

in the trial against Antonio Guerra.

I know there were many witnesses, but...

- Why Brenda? - How do you expect me to remember?

Do you have any idea the amount of statements there were?

Many, Esteban.

It was one of the most important cases of your career.

That's why you are here.

- Are you telling me you don't remember? - No, you are, Esteban.

Why the hell are you reviewing that case?

I think it's got something to do with Brenda's death.

Brenda killed herself.

- I'm just playing with this theory. - Stop playing around.

These are sensitive matters.

Please.

I have to go.

It's on me. See you later.

Vallejo.

Any news?

I know I fucked up, I acted like a crazy person.

Exactly, you said it yourself, a crazy person.

Please understand. I was desperate over the idea of not seeing you again.

I went nuts.

Please understand, we can't keep seeing each other.

I swear, I won't ruin your marriage.

Your husband will never know about us.

This is over, okay?

Things changed, Darío.

I'm willing to accept any conditions.

You can trust me.

Darío, stop, please.

Alma.

I love you.

I know you love me too.

Say you don't love me.

Tell me to my face.

Alma, you can't treat me like this.

Your feelings can't change so suddenly.

You have no idea what my feelings are.

And I won't throw my marriage away.

Besides, Leonardo is starting to suspect.

That won't happen.

I'm not asking you to leave your husband.

Just don't leave me.

Look, I...

I need some time, okay. Just give me some time.

- Morning, professor. - Morning.

- How are you? - Fine, thank you.

Ready?

Pathological anatomy studies the causes,

development and consequences of diseases.

It gives the right diagnosis to biopsies,

surgical pieces, cytology and autopsies.

Pathological anatomy

includes all the areas of specific training.

Neuropathology, pediatric pathology,

cytopathology, gynecological pathology...

And finally, the criminal code also included

cybersexual harassment, better known as grooming.

I'm quoting the article.

I'm sorry.

I'm quoting the article.

CAN WE MEET AFTER CLASS?

Someone would be guilty of cybersexual harassment

if that person tries lewd acts

using coercion, intimidation,

induction, seduction or deceit

to establish communication through any technological means

with someone younger than 18.

Or someone with diminished capacity that cannot understand the situation,

even with previous consent.

So, whoever commits

this crime will get two to six years in prison

and a fine of 400 to 600 day's wages.

ARE YOU THERE?

As we all know,

social media is an important way of communication.

FINALLY YOU'RE CONNECTED WHERE WERE YOU?

But, unfortunately,

more minors are using them.

This is where pedophiles and pederasts are taking the opportunity

to create false profiles to seduce them and court them.

Later, they'll meet in person,

where they'll take advantage of the victim

and will commit a much worse crime.

I'll go through the last 48 hours of Brenda Castillo's life.

Or at least, the footage from the security camera of the condo.

- Come on, on DVD? - It's all we have, brother.

Did you check them?

No, I'd rather see ten bad action movies

than 48 hours of footage of the outside of a condo in a closed case.

One last thing.

In Leslie's file,

there's one statement missing.

Brenda Castillo's.

Do you know why?

Your brother closed the case. Ask him.

- Thanks, professor. - Excuse me, professor.

I have some questions. Can you give me ten minutes in private?

Yes, just a minute, Mr. Guerra.

Lizy.

I'd like to give you my comments on the essay you gave me.

- Those are the facts of every case. - Yes, sure.

- Do you have a car? - No.

- Can I give you a lift? - Yes, please.

Come on.

Your birthday.

Hi.

Am I interrupting?

I'm looking for a friend.

Have a seat.

- Cool, thanks. - Your friend's name? Does he work here?

No, it's just...

How can I say this?

My friend came to the shop,

he brought his car in and...

I wanted to know if I can get some information about him.

I don't understand.

- Zoe, that's my name. - Zoe.

If you give me the first and last name of your friend, I can look him up

- through the invoice system. - That's the problem.

I don't know his name.

Okay.

I really don't get it.

Okay, I'll tell you the truth.

I met him online.

His nickname is...

Animus.

I know this sounds really stupid, but...

All I know is that Animus was at this shop,
