00:00He's going to have to deal with it on his own.
00:02Have you ever told me that your father was also subdued by his mother?
00:06Yes, my grandmother was a dominant narcissist.
00:09She subdued my father and always complained about his lack of character.
00:13So he followed the same pattern of domination.
00:16And perhaps in the face of that lack of compass,
00:18he would look for someone to dominate him.
00:21Probably.
00:23But I'm very aware of him,
00:24in case I have to prescribe some antidepressant or something.
00:28And as for your mother,
00:29let the authorities and the justice department take care of it.
00:32They'll find the murderer.
00:34Okay.
00:35Well, I have to go to Pavilion C.
00:37See you later.
00:38Thank you, doctor.
00:44Sometimes I feel more lost than the patients who are here.
00:59Virgencita,
01:01please enlighten me
01:04so I can support my father,
01:07but also so we know who killed my mother.
01:12Please, Virgencita,
01:14help me clarify my mother's murder
01:18so I can have peace in my heart and so I can help my father.

02:11Daughter.
02:12Yes.
02:13What happened?
02:18I don't know.
02:19Why are you wearing my grandmother's clothes?
02:21I don't know, daughter.
02:22I was folding these clothes.
02:24It's confusing.
02:25As if it were a dream.
02:27I don't know.
02:28Soon I saw myself as if it were a dream.
02:31I don't know.
02:32I don't know why I put on my mother's clothes.
02:36Don't worry.
02:37I'll help you take it off.
02:38Come on.
02:41Don't worry, honey.
02:42Don't worry.
02:43Don't worry.
02:44Come on.
02:45I'll help you.
02:51It was as if I was talking to another person.
02:53He spoke differently.
02:54Very strange.
02:56You say he was wearing your grandmother's clothes?
02:59Yes, his dress, a wig.
03:01But when I asked him and talked to him, he didn't remember anything.
03:05It could be a dissociation of personality.
03:08But we'd have to see him.
03:09Analyze his behavior.
03:11It could be something else.
03:13A dissociation is the escape from something painful
03:16or something distressing for the patient.
03:18You yourself have said that your father was subjected by your grandmother.
03:22But what did he do to him?
03:24He hit him.
03:25He punished him.
03:28He could escape from a painful event.
03:30Or he could adopt the personality that dominated him to feel safe.
03:35But that personality that he adopts is the one that can dare to do things
03:40that normally your father wouldn't do.
03:43I'm not very sure.
03:44But it seemed like he was talking to my grandmother.
03:49How can I know what's wrong with my father?
03:51Study his behavior closely.
03:53Don't lose sight of him.
03:54And if possible, follow him.
03:56Something triggered that other personality.
03:59If my father knew about my mother's infidelity,
04:02I have to find out.
04:03Thank you, doctor. Thank you.
04:16Do you remember the statement of this man's wife, Ignacio?
04:21Yes, when we went to corroborate Ignacio's birthday party.
04:26The woman wasn't with him.
04:28She was with her lover at a motel.
04:31We already have the footage from the security cameras.
04:36Why would she lie?
04:38That day, the daughter was on guard duty.
04:41So no one can know where Ignacio was the night Germán was killed.
04:47Let's see, Varos.
04:49There's a witness who says he saw a woman at Luisa's murder.
04:55And if it's actually a man dressed as a woman,
04:59this would make a lot of sense.
05:02Because of the force used in the stranglehold, Varos.
05:05Look, the two murders have two things in common.
05:09They were finished with the same object,
05:11and there's a woman in between.
05:12The one in the video and the witness.
05:14Yes, but we don't have a face.
05:17We have to interrogate Ignacio again.
05:20Where was he on his birthday?
05:29I don't know.
05:54Dad!
05:56No, dad! Let me go, please!
05:58I'll avenge my son. He's weak, but he has me.
06:03Dad, please! Dad, call Ignacio, please!
06:07Please, let him go!
06:09Let him go!
06:11Please, dad!
06:13Dad!
06:20You're under arrest for attempted murder.
06:22We have to take him.
06:23No, please! He's my son!
06:25Ask for help.
06:27Please.
06:29No medical support.
06:33They finally found the evidence that incriminates my dad
06:36for the murder of Germán and my mother
06:38in my grandmother's personality.
06:41He's going to spend a lot of time here, but he's going to be fine.
06:44He hasn't run away.
06:45And with psychotherapy, we're working on the factors
06:48that triggered the change of personality.
06:51Yes, it was very hard for him to live not only bullying
06:54in his childhood, but also dealing with abuse
06:57and mistreatment of his own mother.
07:00You've been taking care of your father.
07:02Now he's calm.
07:04Look, there he comes.
07:08Yes.
07:09Now I'm going to study with Masa Ingo to be able to help him
07:11and that at some point he can get out of here.
07:17Hi, dad. How are you?
07:18Good.
07:19I've felt good.
07:21I still don't know what went through my mind.
07:24I have it as if it were a dream.
07:27Don't worry, dad.
07:29With therapy, we're going to help you overcome
07:31all the traumatic events of your childhood.
07:34It was a very hard childhood next to my mother,
07:36who didn't accept my character.
07:39But the doctor says she doesn't even appear in my dreams anymore.
07:42That's good.
07:43That means we're on the right track.
07:45But I'm sorry for what I did under her personality.
07:48It wasn't you, really.
07:50It was your alter that dominated your mind.
07:53In the end, your mother was the woman who dominated you
07:55for many years.
07:57Yes.
07:59But now I feel that she no longer thinks about me,
08:01the shadow of my mother.
08:16No, daddy.
08:18Her shadow no longer weighs or will weigh more on you.
08:46The traumatic experiences of our childhood
08:48can trigger terrible consequences in adulthood.
08:52Abuse can be one of them.
08:55Dealing with the reality of a traumatic event
08:57is difficult for the human mind.
08:59Therapy is required to face it and accept it.
09:03But with love and patience,
09:04we can get rid of any shadow that has harmed us,
09:08including the trauma of our childhood.
09:10But with love and patience,
09:11we can get rid of any shadow that has harmed us,
09:15including the trauma of our childhood.
