La Reina del Sur spoilers indicate that the end is very near, as there are only twelve episodes left until the Gran Final on July 29th. That means things are heating up, as Teresa Mendoza (Kate del Castillo) is desperately trying to find her daughter in the wake of learning there’s now a kill order out on them. If you missed it, let’s catch you up in your La Reina del Sur recap.
La Reina del Sur spoilers: Unintended consequences
Teresa is upset today that not only has Oleg Yasikov (Antonio Gil) fallen thanks to Teresa’s mission, but her friend Faustino Sánchez Godoy (Lincoln Palomeque) is also in custody. She apologizes to Rocío Aljarafe (Sara Vidorreta), but Rocio plays it off. She says it was bound to happen sooner or later.
As for Faustino, he’s getting processed and led to a cell. Everyone seems to be giving him a nice welcome, and there’s one person in particular that seems to be watching in there. Could we be seeing a setup for a new season?
La Reina del Sur spoilers: Courtesy call
Given the situation with Sofia Dantes (Isabella Sierra), Teresa stops by to see Cayetana Segovia (Luisa Gavasa) personally. She informs her nemesis that plans have changed. Sofia is now on the loose again, and Cayetana and Charo (Carmen Flores Sandoval) will stay until Sofia is found and they’re safely out of the way. Teresa will not give Cayetana the opportunity to take her daughter. Cayetana counters that the child is sentenced to death as long as she’s with Teresa. She claims she can give Sofia a more stable, safe life. By the look on Teresa’s face, you can see she might actually be affected by that.
La Reina del Sur spoilers: ¿Que Pasó?, Batman?
Sheila (Cuca Escribano) has been sent to see César “Batman” Güemes (Alejandro Calva) to find out what he might know about Sofia’s whereabouts and the plot against them.
When she gets there, she finds blood on a car and the ground. In a panic that it could be Sofia’s, she pounds on the door until Batman answers. He’s injured. She seems to be genuinely concerned for him as she asks what happens, but he brushes her off, saying he knows nothing about whatever Teresa wanted her to uncover. He’s busy. When she pushes, he admits to being wounded by someone over a deal and refuses her attempts to go to a hospital. He thinks she’s stupid for suggesting it, and he’s got a doctor coming anyway. The man quickly arrives and Batman rudely sends her away.
La Reina del Sur spoilers: Tracking Kira
Jonathan Peres (Tiago Correa) gets proactive in finding Manuela, aka Kira (Paola Núñez). He calls Sergio (Eduardo Pérez), who is angry. He says he knows Jonathan was lying about his identity. Meanwhile, Jonathan’s hooked up the phone to various tech to trap Manuela. He tells Sergio about the motorcycle accident. As predicted, this makes Sergio disobey Manuela’s order to wait for her to call him.
While Manuela is giving Sergio grief, Jonathan is hard at work tracing the call. It pays of, and he gloats to himself that he’s got her.
La Reina del Sur spoilers: The chase continues
Manuela was in someone’s yard stealing clothes, because she’s been a busy girl. See, Sofia had been out looking for antibiotics to help Francesco Belmondo (Raoul Bova). He’s burning up, and can’t seek proper attention. Sofia makes up a lie that convinces a pharmacist to give her the meds, but Manuela spots her coming out of the building.
Sofia thinks fast. She runs, eventually finding a police station where she seeks help. Manuela catches up and claims Sofia is her daughter, but Sofia insists it’s a lie. She’s so distraught, the cops seem to believe her and stop Manuela. She’s ready for them. She initiates another in a series of firefights on this show and eventually takes out pretty much every officer in the place. But while they fought, Sofia managed to escape.
La Reina del Sur spoilers: Reunited
After one call previously (where she refused to divulge her location for fear her mother will kill Francesco), Sofia is convinced to call her again. But she will only do it after Francesco has eaten some of the food she brought. Francesco agrees. While he’s doing that, Sofia notices her cat is missing and runs off against Francesco’s protests.
This was both good and bad. It’s good, because in her search, she comes across Teresa. Teresa had been driving around most of the night, and is thrilled to finally catch up to her daughter.
It’s bad, because Sofia now has to figure out how to keep her mother from finding out about Francesco.
