Under Don Pablo’s guidance, he sets his eyes on one day running the entire Las Colinas operation by becoming the right-hand man of Diane. Meanwhile, in the present day, older Máximo (Eugenio Derbez, “Instructions Not Included”) returns to Acapulco to make peace with the recent passing of Don Pablo (Damián Alcázar, “La Ley de Herodes”, where he is forced to confront some unfinished business young Máximo left behind.
