La Novia Gitana - Episode Guide

A boy locked in a tool shed defends himself against a dog that bites his ankle until he manages to kill it with a hoe. The body of a young woman dressed as a bride appears in an abandoned swimming pool and Zarate, a young inspector, notices that the victim has worms sticking out of some incisions on his head. Two agents from the BAC, the criminal analysis brigade, burst into the inspection and the inspector does not take center stage.

The child remains locked up and cries, unable to get out of there. His ankle wound worsens and the dog lies dead next to him. The camera in Inspector Blanco's house continues photographing the main square. The BAC interrogates Cintia, who reported the disappearance of her friend, but he refers them to her fiancé with whom she used drugs. Chesca and Orduño, BAC agents, discover that someone paid the beggars who frequented the area to disappear, but they are unable to find out anything else, despite the pressure that Chesca exerts on El Tuerto, the boss among the homeless. Moisés, the father, wants to bury his daughter and find out who his boyfriend was, but the investigation delays him. Her wife, Sonia, misses among her daughter's things a chain with a cross that she always wore. Zarate informs the commissioner about the hearing that has been carried out on Salvador and he reminds him why he is on the case.

The locked-up child looks for something to eat and finds a can of peaches in syrup, but cuts himself trying to open it. Blood, syrup and tears mix on his face. While the Macayas celebrate the funeral of his daughter, Chesca and Orduño, BAC agents, follow Raúl and although he tries to escape, they manage to stop him. Checking her home, the coroner recognizes the bed from which Susana took photos of herself imitating her dead sister. Sonia, the mother of the deceased, reproaches her husband for El Capi being at her funeral; She doesn't want him around. Raúl does not collaborate in the interrogation although he ends up admitting that he followed his fiancée that night to make sure that she was not cheating on him. Elena and Zárate decide to visit Cintia again, but she is there, she has cut her wrists and is bleeding to death in the bathtub. They manage to revive her. They discover some photos of Susana and her having sex and with the word sluts written on them.

The locked-up boy discovers maggots in the dead dog, but also in the wound on his ankle, and fascinated by seeing them, he begins to eat them. Chesca and Orduño look for clues about the attack on Miguel in prison, but they only discover that the 9 stab wounds came from the gypsy module. Elena focused on monitoring Lusson, does not answer the calls from her team. Commissioner Rentero warns Zarate of the danger that reopening the Lara case could pose and the furious police officer makes the mistake of visiting the prisoner in the hospital, without the appropriate permission. Masegosa, the new lawyer, prevents the inspector from questioning him because of her nosy partner. Elena tracks down Lusson, determined to look for her son under the stones. Sonia reproaches her husband for not telling her about the detective and Moisés leaves in a bad mood to work on an assignment for her cousin El Capi.

DNA tests confirm the BAC's suspicions. Moses is wanted and captured, while he deals with the demons within him. Elena speaks with Jáuregui, Vista's defense lawyer, who distrusts the evidence that incriminated her client. Analyzing the evidence from the Lara Macaya case from years ago, Buendía sees some inconsistencies that indicate that everything could have been a setup orchestrated by Salvador Santos. Zárate's attitude leaves doubts about his interests, and he is removed from the case.

The interrogation of Salvador Santos demonstrates police malpractice in Lara's case. Elena confronts Rentero which has serious consequences. Zárate investigates Jáuregui, Vistas' lawyer, about inconsistencies in his strategy during the trial. A search in Vistas' cell reveals a strange correspondence related to the ritual practiced in the sisters' murders. Chesca and Orduño follow the clues and they lead them to a dangerous clandestine event.

The interrogation of Jáuregui clears up many unknowns about the cases of Lara and Susana, but Buendía, the coroner, reveals differences between both murders that cast doubt on the BAC. Elena finally seems ready to turn the page on the disappearance of her son, she puts all her energy into closing the case and discovers revealing hidden connections between Jauregui and Vistas, who is finally released.

Jáuregui reveals the truth about Susana's murder. Vista's past explains his obsessions and his next moves. The BAC begins a frantic search to prevent new crimes. Chesca and Orduño discover a closet with hard drives full of torture videos, including one that especially impacts Elena. A violent outcome seems to put an end to the case, but Elena receives a shocking message. A new investigation looms on the horizon: The Purple Network.

Elena reviews the video she received after Vista's suicide in which a young woman is being tortured by a boy who may be her son Lucas. She asks him not to look for him. Mariajo, the BAC hacker, has been tracking a server on the Internet for months that has finally been activated; Someone has connected from Rivas. It turns out to be a minor who has paid 3,000 euros to connect to the live torture of a young woman, but the BAC helplessly watches the torture without being able to arrive in time. Reviewing the images they are able to deduce that it was recorded from a rainy area. The body is found in a river and Buendía locates his identity thanks to a rare genetic anomaly of the victim. Her name is Aisha Bassir. Elena forces Daniel, the detained minor, and gets him to recognize Dimas and Pavel, the hooded executioners, and give them another name, Yarum, the man to whom she paid 3,000 euros to receive the link. Elena orders Orduño and Chesca to investigate the area where she was found.

Marina plays with the child they kidnapped. She tries to distract him, but Dimas takes him away despite the little boy's cries and the complaints of the woman, who knows that he is not yet ready. Elena visits Mar, Aisha's only contact, accompanied by a very deteriorated Zárate. Mar, addicted and decadent, is distressed when she learns what happened. She took care of her like her own daughter. Aurora and Aisha disappeared from La Esperanza Center at the same time. According to Mar, they are not the only ones who have disappeared. This information leads Elena and Zárate to visit the school where they meet Rocío Narváez, her director, who explains to them that there are many who run away from the center when they are about to turn 18, as is the case with both of them. For their part, Chesca and Orduño locate the ship where Aisha was tortured and killed, but there are remains of DNA from more people.

Buendía deduces that the torture carried out on the girls is not systematic, it seems targeted and whoever pays the most, has the most rights. Additionally, Casto warns Elena to be careful with her superiors; They have arrested Nahin and they are not going to like that. Commissioner Rentero asks him to focus on looking for Aurora. Buendía searches the press archives from the year 91 and locates the case of three minors who escaped from an orphanage, found dead and without thumbs. She questions Casto and states that history does not repeat itself, but continues. A domination strategy that comes from before. The BAC is very divided. The bad feeling is felt, but Elena is not willing to stop. Plus, she gets a clue from Casto before leaving.

Dimas has made the boy react and harden, giving his soul like a gladiator. Meanwhile, the BAC is destroyed. The police have devastated and taken everything, but they have also entered everyone's houses and the worst thing is that they have lost the entire investigation. Elena finds out that Zárate has been arrested and reacts by covering her partner in front of Commissioner Rentero. The inspector explains to Zárate her strategy to free him; she needs him to get closer to Kortabarria. It's his only asset. Chesca and Elena locate Caracaja, a guy who knows where Kortabarria moves and how he accesses his women's auctions. The team organizes the operation that will be almost suicide for Zárate.

Dimas prepares the boy for his next fight. Meanwhile, Marina heals his hands after the fight, but the boy is thinking about what happened a few years ago, when he let go of his mother's hand. Buendía and Elena analyze the situation after the operation. Reme, the accountant, is detained and they must find out where she kept the money that has not been found after the inspection. Elena decides to question Judge Zamora and the former director of the orphanage, Villacampa, despite the fight she has with Mariajo, who sees it as risky. Elena tries to corner them, but she only succeeds in angering them. However, with Reme, they have better luck. Chesca will infiltrate one of the most complicated operations as a guest in a bullring box.

Commissioner Rentero decides to arrest Elena, but when he discovers that they have Chesca and that Lucas, the inspector's son, is alive and in the network, he lets him go. Buendía and Zárate locate a mass grave on the farm with corpses without thumbs; some have been dead for decades. Chesca tries to undermine Lucas by remembering his mother, but Dimas enters and, without saying a word, rips off his thumb. Mariajo explains to Orduño that someone is ratting them out and, due to the area of the call, it could be someone close to him or Zárate. He tries to locate Zárate, but he has gone to get drugs and ends up in the hands of El Capi, who gives him what he is looking for and a cell phone to keep him under control.

Dimas manages to annul Lucas's fragility, in shock, taking him to meet The Mother, who marks him with an iron seal that identifies the cursed heirs, baptizes him with the name of Cain and assures him that his only mother is she. For her part, Elena and Orduño try to extract information from Marina, but it is impossible. They pressure her, but the only thing she manages to stammer is that she has always lived locked up, and she recognizes that she participated with Dimas in Lucas's kidnapping. Mariajo negotiates with Rentero to support the operation, but he does not agree. At the BAC they organize the operation in order to put an end to the spearhead of the network and save Chesca.

The face to face between Lucas and Elena is a reality. Elena tries to make him remember who she is, but Lucas has no mercy. Elena's colleagues try to find her whereabouts.
