- Slide: 1
- The jewelry case
- Slide: 2
- Lucas! I have a lead on the case of the stolen jewelry store.
- Yet another theory? The last one led us to a red herring, Clara.
- Lucas is reviewing some reports when Clara enters, notebook in hand and a determined look on her face.
- Slide: 3
- Diego... I haven't seen him for years. Why do you think he would be involved?
- But this time it's different. I heard that Diego was in the neighborhood that night.
- Maybe... But it's a risk to talk to him, think twice before you talk to him. I don't want you to get into trouble.
- He's always been in the business. And you know he has contacts.
- Slide: 4
- some time later:
- Lucas and Clara arrive at a gloomy bar. Diego is sitting at the back, with a glass in his hand. Lucas approaches, while Clara stays behind.
- have a seat, we need to talk
- Diego
- Diego.
- Lucas. I didn't expect to see you. What brings you here, do you want to make a fuss?
- Slide: 5
- You know why I'm here, don't turn a blind eye. Jewelry. What do you know about it?
- Curiosity has never left you, has it? But I have nothing to do with that.
- Slide: 6
- Don't waste my time. The police are already on the trail. You are suspected of committing a crime.
- Lucas,let me talk to him
- I'm not scared, Lucas. I had nothing to do with it, I swear. If you arrest me, you're detain someone for a crime without evidence.
- Slide: 7
- if you talk about me, you'd better watch out. There are things you don't understand. I don't feel like lend a helping hand for your investigations
- Diego, what do you know about the men who came in that night?
- see you never
- Slide: 8
- Lucas and Clara leave the bar, worried. Diego's conversation has made them uneasy.
- In a dark alley :
- Diego has always been a master at hiding his cards. But I can't shake the feeling that he knows more than he's saying.
- Do you think he was telling the truth?
- So, we have to keep digging. We can't let this stand. Let's follow him home
- Slide: 9
- That night, Clara and Lucas decide to return to Diego's house. A light flickers inside.
- The truth, Diego. Now. think twice about what you are going to tell us.
- You! What are you doing here?
- hello diego did you miss us?
- Slide: 10
- UNDERSTAND, THIS IS BIGGER THAN YOU THINK.
- If you confess you will be better off, maybe a reduced sentence for surrender
- Diego, what do you mean?
- Slide: 11
- I am very disappointed. I don't like you Diego, but I came to think that you were innocent.
- we all have problems, but it doesn't give you the right to act like a rat and lie to our faces.
- I HAD TO DO IT! You don't understand how hard it is to raise a child. You don't know what it's like to suffer
- Slide: 12
- Diego, you are under arrest, you have the right to remain silent, anything you say can be used against you.
- ¡NOOOO, release me!
- Slide: 13
- two months later:
- lucas and clara talk about the conclusion of the case until.....
- I feel bad for diego but, he was the only one responsible for his actions.
- yes, but there is nothing we can do about it, he has already been sentenced to 50 years in prison.
- Slide: 14
- in the end it makes you think, what's the use of stealing 500 million dollars, if you won't be able to use it, and you'll spend 50 years of your life locked up like an animal?
- Yes...
- Slide: 15
- Anyway, thank you for helping me to close the jewelry case, I would not have known it was Diego on my own.
- Yes it is true, but now that I think about it, the person who gave me the information was an anonymous person, who explained to me in detail the whole scene of the crime, strange isn't it?
- Slide: 16
- Now that you mention it, you never told me how you got that information.
- oh no....
- Is the anonymous person an accomplice?
- that means he's going to try to get diego out of jail.
- To be continue...
