WEBVTT - Out of Hell

0:00:02.440 --> 0:00:07.400
<v Speaker 1>From executive producers Dania Ramidez and myself, Eva Longoria. Sisters

0:00:07.400 --> 0:00:10.240
<v Speaker 1>of the Underground tells the powerful story of the Meat

0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:14.600
<v Speaker 1>about sisters, real life Latina's who sacrificed everything for the

0:00:14.680 --> 0:00:31.480
<v Speaker 1>fight for freedom. Oh, no, one other rainy spell here, Harry,

0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:34.080
<v Speaker 1>help me bring some of the flower pots inside before

0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:46.560
<v Speaker 1>they get too wet. Daaa okay, gentle with them. I yeah, yes,

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:49.800
<v Speaker 1>you know when young plants get too much water, it's

0:00:49.800 --> 0:00:53.400
<v Speaker 1>not healthy for them. Some of these are from Grandma's

0:00:53.440 --> 0:01:01.040
<v Speaker 1>front yard at the museum. They're beautiful. You know you

0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:04.679
<v Speaker 1>never finished telling me about what happened after the party

0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:11.559
<v Speaker 1>at Casa Borkin and you remember that. Wow? I see

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:15.800
<v Speaker 1>your still thinking about that, are you? I want to

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 1>know everything about all Neva and her sisters don't say,

0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:26.760
<v Speaker 1>but we might want to sit down. The next party

0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:29.319
<v Speaker 1>is a very dark and sad moment in our history.

0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Don't worry. I'm a big girl. Mommy didn't sleep much

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:43.040
<v Speaker 1>following the infamous Party of nine, her encounter with the

0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Dictator through he had reminded her a bollow, a dear

0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 1>family friend who disappeared. He was a merchant from my

0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:56.280
<v Speaker 1>d who loved to bring fresh mangos and bananas to

0:01:56.440 --> 0:02:00.960
<v Speaker 1>Mommy and her sister's patients. Every real where we're being

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:04.480
<v Speaker 1>targeted by the regime. Many of them were killed or

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:10.079
<v Speaker 1>left out of field. Then, after Thruo visited the town

0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:13.080
<v Speaker 1>of the Harbor and realized that there were a lot

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:18.560
<v Speaker 1>of patients there, they ordered the military to assassinate anyone

0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:24.839
<v Speaker 1>living close to the board. I don't know how. When

0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Buddo died one day, he stopped coming. Last time Mommy

0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:35.520
<v Speaker 1>saw him, he told her never trust an old devil's tricks.

0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>He meant through hill right. See. After the attacks at

0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:47.000
<v Speaker 1>the border, a lot of Dominicans began to see just

0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:52.600
<v Speaker 1>how Bord the dictator could go. Then her encounter with

0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:56.799
<v Speaker 1>Thruio at the party made Mommy realize that she'd have

0:02:57.040 --> 0:03:03.360
<v Speaker 1>to fight her way out of her Three days after,

0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:13.240
<v Speaker 1>they came to see Papa. Look at what are you doing?

0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:16.680
<v Speaker 1>Leave my father alone? We have orders to take Don Enrique.

0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:20.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, but may I ask why? You know it's

0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:23.000
<v Speaker 1>against the law to leave an event before. I understand,

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:25.960
<v Speaker 1>but I sent a telegram yesterday explaining why we left.

0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:30.680
<v Speaker 1>My daughter felt unwell. We never meant to anger. We're

0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:33.600
<v Speaker 1>just following orders. Let's go. And where are you? Taking him?

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:41.960
<v Speaker 1>To the Osamafford and see that through happy dons? Who's

0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:48.520
<v Speaker 1>to let him go? Stop it? He's done nothing. Trust me, Senor,

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:52.200
<v Speaker 1>you don't want to make this any harder. You've already

0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:54.640
<v Speaker 1>done enough. I want to go with my husband. It

0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 1>will be all right, yere, I'll explain everything to them.

0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:03.680
<v Speaker 1>We'll come for you, Poppy, I promise. At the Usamafford,

0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:08.240
<v Speaker 1>into that Loning Criquet was interrogated by Manuel de Moja,

0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:11.680
<v Speaker 1>He's right hand man. Do you remember I told you

0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:16.600
<v Speaker 1>she danced with him. This was his chance for revenge

0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:26.480
<v Speaker 1>for being humiliated by Minerva. Unfailing, you'll heavy? Can I

0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:29.680
<v Speaker 1>please have some water? Haven't been here for five full

0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 1>minutes and you're already expecting special treatment? Lease? Why did

0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:38.040
<v Speaker 1>you leave the party? Senora? My daughter fell ill. Please

0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:41.360
<v Speaker 1>accept my deepest and most sincere apologies for our exit.

0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:45.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm a businessman, not a politician. Your daughter is another story.

0:04:46.640 --> 0:04:52.279
<v Speaker 1>The very next day, three's cards came for Mommy. Start

0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:58.200
<v Speaker 1>to me, let me go. I don't need your dance

0:04:58.240 --> 0:05:00.360
<v Speaker 1>hall techniques. Then more, yeah, I want to see my father.

0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:09.680
<v Speaker 1>I say, she's not going without me. Move Mama, you

0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 1>hurt me. My daughter will not go anywhere without me.

0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:23.560
<v Speaker 1>She will only leave over my dead body. Get in Willy.

0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Mommy hoped they'd be reunited with a willow right away. Instead,

0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:32.320
<v Speaker 1>they were driven to a Lottel Republic, where they were

0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:38.240
<v Speaker 1>kept under guard for days. Welcome to your new home.

0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:43.080
<v Speaker 1>Enjoy the view. Are they really going to keep us

0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:47.640
<v Speaker 1>locked in here like prisoners? I said, a bliss, Try

0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:53.760
<v Speaker 1>the window, miham. It's a lot. We have to get

0:05:53.800 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 1>out of here and find some way to get to Papa.

0:05:56.120 --> 0:05:58.480
<v Speaker 1>And what was the point of bringing us here anyway? Yeah,

0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:01.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe to put pressure on him. He'd be worried if

0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:07.160
<v Speaker 1>he knew you had been picked up too. That's the

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:12.480
<v Speaker 1>days went by, Mommy grew more upset than impatient, and

0:06:12.600 --> 0:06:15.480
<v Speaker 1>the guards wouldn't let them make calls back to Joe

0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Agua or put anyone's calls through, so of course they

0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:28.080
<v Speaker 1>were worried about Patria. One day, the guard finally showed

0:06:28.200 --> 0:06:37.560
<v Speaker 1>up with a letter. Right, look, it's from Patria. Ka,

0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:41.160
<v Speaker 1>Mamami Nerva. We hope you are all right. We have

0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:44.200
<v Speaker 1>been so worried since you left the day and I

0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:47.080
<v Speaker 1>have been at the store. But it's been quiet. We

0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:54.080
<v Speaker 1>haven't had many customers. Everyone is scared. Some guards came

0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:56.279
<v Speaker 1>the other day and it took some of me, Neva's

0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:59.839
<v Speaker 1>books and letters. We spoke to the governor about getting

0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 1>you and Poppy released, but there's nothing he can do this.

0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 1>In case no one wants to get involved, We'll talk

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:12.240
<v Speaker 1>to your Chilling and keep you informed. Queen and Sam

0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:19.679
<v Speaker 1>your daughter and sister. Patrick don't Chilling was her uncle

0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:23.360
<v Speaker 1>from mamuela chair Side. He had been an important officer

0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:25.640
<v Speaker 1>in the army for years, but had to give his

0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:29.560
<v Speaker 1>position up to to health issues. And guess who stepped

0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:35.280
<v Speaker 1>in for him after he left Camus none other than Too,

0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 1>who was a bright eyed young colonel in the army

0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:42.640
<v Speaker 1>at the time. That's a close relative with ties to

0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:55.040
<v Speaker 1>thro Chilling was the family's last hope. Hi, it's an honor.

0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:58.720
<v Speaker 1>Don't be Helio. We have been hoping to hear from

0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:03.240
<v Speaker 1>someone the heal your He was that the Dato's older

0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:11.080
<v Speaker 1>brother and just as entitled and arrogant. How do you

0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:13.400
<v Speaker 1>like a room? We have a lovely view of see

0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:17.680
<v Speaker 1>that through he do. I miss my home and my family.

0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:22.080
<v Speaker 1>Who you please take us to see my husband? We're

0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:26.320
<v Speaker 1>really worried about my father. Please release us, Please let

0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:31.280
<v Speaker 1>us see him. It's up to you. Senor has one

0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:34.160
<v Speaker 1>simple request. He'd like to see you in a lot.

0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:37.680
<v Speaker 1>If you agree, we'll make sure they get you both

0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:42.400
<v Speaker 1>home safe and sound. Me alone with Truo in a hotel,

0:08:43.320 --> 0:08:49.760
<v Speaker 1>I'd rather jump off that balcony well. Without your co operation,

0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:52.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm afraid we won't be able to release you. Or

0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:55.880
<v Speaker 1>don't Rique. Don't you care about your mother or father?

0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:58.679
<v Speaker 1>It's precisely because I care that I won't expose them

0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:01.800
<v Speaker 1>to such ridicule. Are gave you an opportunity to cooperate,

0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:09.760
<v Speaker 1>but since you won't guard come now take her. I'll go, Mama.

0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:12.440
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be fine, I promise, know me. I mean

0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:19.600
<v Speaker 1>everybody where are you taking her? That you're gonna bring

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:23.280
<v Speaker 1>her back? I can't make any promises. Let's see how

0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:30.200
<v Speaker 1>she behaves. They took her to the Osama Ford, where

0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:33.880
<v Speaker 1>she was chastised and interrograded by Manuel de Moja for

0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:37.680
<v Speaker 1>leaving the party early. It also gave you a chance

0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:41.920
<v Speaker 1>to grill her about her political alliances. You're looking rather

0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:46.400
<v Speaker 1>bails since the last time I saw you, Biggers. Are

0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:50.360
<v Speaker 1>you a communist who is a communist according to you,

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:55.800
<v Speaker 1>someone who reads who has ideas of their own. So

0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:58.559
<v Speaker 1>do you not agree with elenor Lisimo's vision for a

0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:02.680
<v Speaker 1>better and safer nation? Don't you care about the country's future?

0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:05.560
<v Speaker 1>Of course I do, and maybe you'd like to explain

0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:12.280
<v Speaker 1>this one bush Luis pier Gandhi's non violence in Peace

0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:15.079
<v Speaker 1>and War? Why do you have my books? I'll ask

0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:19.880
<v Speaker 1>you one more time. Are you a communist? Then, if

0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:22.760
<v Speaker 1>you are the patriot you say you are, write a

0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:26.160
<v Speaker 1>letter to LFE and ask for forgiveness for leaving the party.

0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:29.640
<v Speaker 1>Only then will he release you and your family. I

0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:34.079
<v Speaker 1>did nothing wrong. Do you really want to keep hurting

0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:36.959
<v Speaker 1>and bringing shame to your family by reading this and

0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:40.080
<v Speaker 1>disobeying ill? Why should I feel ashamed? When you are

0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:43.520
<v Speaker 1>the cowards holding us back against our will and threatening

0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:48.240
<v Speaker 1>women and children. Let us go. We wanted to make

0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:51.320
<v Speaker 1>this easy for you, but you forced us to make

0:10:51.360 --> 0:10:58.520
<v Speaker 1>our point harshly. Guard cover, take her back to the hotel.

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:14.920
<v Speaker 1>M hm miss with me. Did they hurt you? No?

0:11:16.240 --> 0:11:17.760
<v Speaker 1>They tried to get me to write him a damn

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:23.559
<v Speaker 1>letter of apology, and did you, of course not. If

0:11:23.600 --> 0:11:25.600
<v Speaker 1>I write that letter, we'll admit that we did something

0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:28.920
<v Speaker 1>wrong by leaving the party, and we didn't. You taught

0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:31.280
<v Speaker 1>us all to stick to our beliefs and protect ourselves.

0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:34.320
<v Speaker 1>You should have seen, mommy, they were holding so many

0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:36.920
<v Speaker 1>people in that jail. It's all part of the sick

0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:40.680
<v Speaker 1>plan for God's sake, and we have a moment of peace. Hey,

0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:44.959
<v Speaker 1>get ready, eleanor Alissimo won't tolerate lateness. Where on earth

0:11:44.960 --> 0:12:09.640
<v Speaker 1>are you taking us? Now? The National Palace? Gracioso Chilling

0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:13.840
<v Speaker 1>has written a letter to Truijo asking for my family's release.

0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:17.520
<v Speaker 1>He hoped that dictator would remember that he helped him

0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:21.520
<v Speaker 1>rise to power and that he owed him a debt.

0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:33.280
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the National Palace. Mia, Mommy, it's poppy, cheer Enrique,

0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.600
<v Speaker 1>you look weak? What did they do to you? Frank,

0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:40.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing fine. You're so skinny. Come on, let's go.

0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:45.080
<v Speaker 1>If it doesn't have all day. Mommy's refusal to write

0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:52.040
<v Speaker 1>a funny letter offended Truijoos. How they are this small

0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:58.360
<v Speaker 1>town girl disobey him. He felt untouchable, invincible and wanted

0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:05.200
<v Speaker 1>them on his own time. Ye being venegos, take a seat,

0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:11.079
<v Speaker 1>And there they were, face to face once again. It

0:13:11.160 --> 0:13:14.120
<v Speaker 1>doesn't look like you've slept much in prison, Don Enrique,

0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:19.280
<v Speaker 1>the nights have been very long without my family. Chilling,

0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Camillo tells me your family, Mrs Meawan, Yes, he's my uncle,

0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:32.319
<v Speaker 1>an honorable and great veteran. Indeed he is. You have

0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:35.839
<v Speaker 1>tolos that you are a businessman. You've done very well

0:13:35.960 --> 0:13:40.280
<v Speaker 1>for yourself back in Salzdo. It is why we honor

0:13:40.360 --> 0:13:43.920
<v Speaker 1>you with an invitation to our party, and we were honored.

0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:47.640
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. I try my best to help the community

0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:51.439
<v Speaker 1>and treat everyone with respect. For your actions at my

0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:56.360
<v Speaker 1>party left much to be desire. I have already explained

0:13:56.960 --> 0:14:00.839
<v Speaker 1>my daughter was unwell. My family means no arm I

0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:04.640
<v Speaker 1>assure you, what about your daughter here? She has been

0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:08.120
<v Speaker 1>acting against me. I gave her an opportunity to explain

0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:13.760
<v Speaker 1>herself and to apologize, and she refused. So what would

0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:15.880
<v Speaker 1>you like me to do with I'm responsible for her.

0:14:17.240 --> 0:14:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Let us take her back home. Our daughter, Minerva is

0:14:21.520 --> 0:14:24.480
<v Speaker 1>a polite and kind young woman, and it is with

0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:28.480
<v Speaker 1>great respect that I beg please let her go. We

0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:32.920
<v Speaker 1>are hard working people, not enemies of the state. Very well, then,

0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I hope you can keep her under control for your

0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:42.680
<v Speaker 1>own sake. We are very grateful. We won't betray your trust.

0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:49.360
<v Speaker 1>Ah through he just smartness. The way he acted as

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:53.440
<v Speaker 1>if he owned the Dominican people only fe Mommy's getted

0:14:53.560 --> 0:14:57.120
<v Speaker 1>a spirit. Not once did she lose sight of her

0:14:57.160 --> 0:15:00.080
<v Speaker 1>fight for freedom and the rest of the family. We

0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:03.280
<v Speaker 1>tried to move on from that infamous party and live

0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:06.800
<v Speaker 1>a quiet life back in the jode Agua. Mommy, however,

0:15:07.640 --> 0:15:12.240
<v Speaker 1>refused to give up on her career aspirations, despite Papa

0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:16.520
<v Speaker 1>and Creeck's best effort to dissuade her. In nineteen fifty two,

0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:29.040
<v Speaker 1>he thought he had found the way we know about

0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:34.280
<v Speaker 1>it fast. It isn't this fund well? Yes, but slower please,

0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Every Bodstrom turned to watch the ks on fault. Nobody

0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:41.280
<v Speaker 1>in town. What ever seen a woman drive a car?

0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Let alone that manner? He's not a woman driving. Looks

0:15:45.800 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 1>like we've never made a What are you looking at?

0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I know how to drive. Thank we all slow down. Look,

0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:59.320
<v Speaker 1>poppies outside of the house waiting. So do you like

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:04.040
<v Speaker 1>to Chevrolett? Yes, it's fast, comfortable and beautiful. Puppy, Thank

0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:09.560
<v Speaker 1>you so much. You messed up all my hair. I'm sorry, Marthy,

0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:11.200
<v Speaker 1>I just got carried away. You just got to be

0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:13.640
<v Speaker 1>more careful. Can't be speeding around like that in town.

0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:16.960
<v Speaker 1>I know, Poppy, I just wanted to test it good.

0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I hope this car can make you reconsider. What do

0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:24.200
<v Speaker 1>you mean, Bah, Well, now that you have a car Metva,

0:16:24.280 --> 0:16:27.680
<v Speaker 1>you can drive around anywhere you like. You can be independent.

0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:30.960
<v Speaker 1>That's what you want, isn't it? And you can help

0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:35.440
<v Speaker 1>me with the business. I know where this is going. Yes,

0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:38.400
<v Speaker 1>I still think it's not a good idea for you

0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:41.000
<v Speaker 1>to leave home to study law. Thanks for your advice,

0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:43.400
<v Speaker 1>and thank you for the car. I really appreciate it.

0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:46.120
<v Speaker 1>But I'm a meta. But I remember I set my

0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:48.840
<v Speaker 1>mind on going to college, Poppy, and I'm going all right,

0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:53.720
<v Speaker 1>all right, I'll be safe, Poppy. Don't worry so much.

0:17:01.520 --> 0:17:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Nothing was gonna stop money. But danger was in the air.

0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Did he just grip on? His people was getting stronger

0:17:08.920 --> 0:17:13.560
<v Speaker 1>by the day. That year, do He paid a visit

0:17:13.680 --> 0:17:19.920
<v Speaker 1>to his counterpart in Madrid, Francisco Franco. They were very

0:17:20.040 --> 0:17:24.280
<v Speaker 1>much alike, believing they were sent by the divine to

0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:30.560
<v Speaker 1>save their respective countries through force and repression. In this

0:17:30.720 --> 0:17:34.640
<v Speaker 1>ship arrived they handed Alissimo of the Dominican Republic, Rafael

0:17:34.960 --> 0:17:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Leonidas through Hillo, the Minister of External Affairs is waiting

0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:42.439
<v Speaker 1>for him at the dog and then Alissimo Truchillo, accompanied

0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:45.920
<v Speaker 1>by his wife Maria de los Angeles Martinez Trujillo now

0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:51.480
<v Speaker 1>meets handed Alissimo Francisco Franco the two leaders and breaks

0:17:52.440 --> 0:17:56.040
<v Speaker 1>and continuing the tradition and homage giving to Franco's gas,

0:17:56.480 --> 0:17:59.800
<v Speaker 1>and then Alissimo Truchijo is driven through the streets where

0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:05.080
<v Speaker 1>the people respond with this place of supportant sympathy. This

0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:11.040
<v Speaker 1>reinforcement of Truigo's power on the international stage only fueled

0:18:11.200 --> 0:18:15.600
<v Speaker 1>my mother's determination to learn something that would help her

0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:23.679
<v Speaker 1>fight against him and his regimere turn off the coffee pot. Okay,

0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:32.200
<v Speaker 1>I got it? Did it? I made cont Oh? Yeah,

0:18:32.720 --> 0:18:42.040
<v Speaker 1>I haven't had that a while. So she started studying

0:18:42.160 --> 0:18:50.720
<v Speaker 1>law right exactament. She had finally gotten the start she wanted. Yeah,

0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:57.800
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen fifty two, Mommy was accepted at that university,

0:18:57.880 --> 0:19:03.080
<v Speaker 1>that at Santo Domingo, that was the first university in

0:19:03.160 --> 0:19:08.600
<v Speaker 1>the America's It already felt like a triumph. She was

0:19:08.720 --> 0:19:13.399
<v Speaker 1>immediately reminded that she was taking a new step in

0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:17.960
<v Speaker 1>an old world. Good morning, How can I help you.

0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:21.640
<v Speaker 1>My name is me Nerva. I'm here to register for classes.

0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:24.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, miss, but your husband should come and tell

0:19:24.680 --> 0:19:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm not married. Oh so, who are you trying to enroll? Me? Neva?

0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I see this is unusual, but if you were accepted,

0:19:37.920 --> 0:19:47.720
<v Speaker 1>you should be in there. Me Neva Mirabal. Wow, there

0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:52.399
<v Speaker 1>you are. Okay, here's your paperwork, Miss Mirable. Good luck

0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:57.000
<v Speaker 1>to you. It was very hard to convince her father

0:19:57.200 --> 0:20:00.520
<v Speaker 1>to let her study law, but it was even harder

0:20:00.640 --> 0:20:05.320
<v Speaker 1>to actually start her degree. Everywhere she went she had

0:20:05.359 --> 0:20:09.119
<v Speaker 1>to overcome these types of obstacles. She was one of

0:20:09.200 --> 0:20:12.399
<v Speaker 1>the few women in the country who studied law, and

0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:16.920
<v Speaker 1>the only woman in her class at the university. That

0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:20.800
<v Speaker 1>was so unfair. I never understand why boys can do

0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:25.320
<v Speaker 1>things that girls can't when we are usually better at them. Anyways,

0:20:25.760 --> 0:20:35.720
<v Speaker 1>A yeah, they lah you Mennya, you can do anything

0:20:36.600 --> 0:20:42.280
<v Speaker 1>because you are madrab don't you forget it? So Minerva

0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:47.040
<v Speaker 1>moved away from home. Was she safe? Yes? It was

0:20:47.119 --> 0:20:50.840
<v Speaker 1>okay at first, good even mommy moved to Santo Domingo.

0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:56.440
<v Speaker 1>I was staying in the Carmelita student residences. But things

0:20:56.520 --> 0:21:00.359
<v Speaker 1>were not so good in all, don't know it was

0:21:00.480 --> 0:21:04.879
<v Speaker 1>still weak. He didn't tell anyone until much later, but

0:21:05.680 --> 0:21:08.719
<v Speaker 1>he actually had a stroke of being held by Troijo.

0:21:09.680 --> 0:21:13.480
<v Speaker 1>The beatings and interrogations had taken at all, and he

0:21:13.680 --> 0:21:18.320
<v Speaker 1>had been hospitalized at the Osama Bord Clinic for days.

0:21:19.560 --> 0:21:25.159
<v Speaker 1>He never fully recovered, and the nineteen fifty three his

0:21:25.400 --> 0:21:35.240
<v Speaker 1>health took a turn for the worse. A Poppy, it's Patria,

0:21:37.119 --> 0:21:41.680
<v Speaker 1>my girls. How is the shop, my papa. I don't

0:21:41.720 --> 0:21:46.120
<v Speaker 1>want to worry you, but we made eighty eight bests

0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:49.119
<v Speaker 1>this week. People are not buying from us if they

0:21:49.240 --> 0:21:56.160
<v Speaker 1>used to. We will manage with what we have. Thank

0:21:56.200 --> 0:21:59.560
<v Speaker 1>you for running the business without me. We're just doing

0:21:59.640 --> 0:22:03.040
<v Speaker 1>the best we can. Next week we will have more

0:22:03.119 --> 0:22:08.000
<v Speaker 1>goods coming in. Don't worry. How are you feeling, honey,

0:22:08.880 --> 0:22:14.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm okay. Good way. Now we have a customer at

0:22:14.440 --> 0:22:22.280
<v Speaker 1>the door. Patria to day. Mamma's mama, Mamas, do you

0:22:22.359 --> 0:22:26.959
<v Speaker 1>need anything, Poppy? Yes, I need a favor from you, Maria,

0:22:27.800 --> 0:22:32.600
<v Speaker 1>but don't tell your mama. Okay, what is it? I'm

0:22:32.680 --> 0:22:35.639
<v Speaker 1>not feeling well? Know I need you to go to

0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:41.000
<v Speaker 1>the parish of Salcedo and get me a priest. A priest, yes, darling,

0:22:42.200 --> 0:22:44.480
<v Speaker 1>why a priest. You want us to go look for

0:22:44.560 --> 0:22:47.520
<v Speaker 1>the doctor. It's too late for doctors. I need my

0:22:47.680 --> 0:22:52.120
<v Speaker 1>last rites. I think I'm leaving soon. Please don't say

0:22:52.200 --> 0:22:56.199
<v Speaker 1>that you will overcome this. Please get me a priest

0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:02.960
<v Speaker 1>and will do as you wish. Papa, you must tell

0:23:03.040 --> 0:23:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Mom I will, but I want everything settled first, she

0:23:08.520 --> 0:23:23.000
<v Speaker 1>she will only be anxious. Maria. I went downtown as

0:23:23.080 --> 0:23:26.960
<v Speaker 1>fast as she could and got a priest just in time.

0:23:28.720 --> 0:23:32.480
<v Speaker 1>No Nick made his death bed confession and an hour

0:23:32.680 --> 0:23:43.320
<v Speaker 1>later Master This was another horrific event that changed the

0:23:43.480 --> 0:23:49.800
<v Speaker 1>family forever. The prosperous, enjoyous life of the Midabal family

0:23:50.680 --> 0:24:13.280
<v Speaker 1>was nothing but a memory from then on. H Aboila

0:24:13.440 --> 0:24:17.280
<v Speaker 1>was probably proud of, even if he didn't show it.

0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm see Joe m h. Minerva never got to

0:24:29.040 --> 0:24:32.399
<v Speaker 1>say good back to her Poppy, but of course she

0:24:32.640 --> 0:24:38.880
<v Speaker 1>came home for the funeral. Family and close first from

0:24:38.920 --> 0:24:42.120
<v Speaker 1>all over sea gathered at their house to say their

0:24:42.200 --> 0:24:57.399
<v Speaker 1>farewells to the Ltric. Mommy, give me a hug. I

0:24:57.520 --> 0:25:05.200
<v Speaker 1>can't believe it. He was just fifty three against Yeah, Poppy, Mommy,

0:25:06.040 --> 0:25:10.280
<v Speaker 1>let me how you doing. Let me see? Yes, you

0:25:10.440 --> 0:25:15.399
<v Speaker 1>know fault? This is right? Yeah, yeah, who is it

0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:21.879
<v Speaker 1>is Los Aimes. And if you weren't for the tortures,

0:25:22.880 --> 0:25:26.520
<v Speaker 1>he might have been alive. And well today I want

0:25:26.600 --> 0:25:29.400
<v Speaker 1>to move to another place closer to the main road.

0:25:30.440 --> 0:25:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I can't. I can't live here with all these memories,

0:25:35.440 --> 0:25:40.200
<v Speaker 1>of course, Mama, But don't worry about that now. I

0:25:40.359 --> 0:25:47.040
<v Speaker 1>promise you we will help you, Classia. I can't. I

0:25:47.119 --> 0:25:49.920
<v Speaker 1>can't put up with this anymore. What are you thinking?

0:25:50.160 --> 0:25:53.960
<v Speaker 1>We gotta do something. Our sorrows are small, but they're everyone's.

0:25:54.359 --> 0:25:58.200
<v Speaker 1>I know that. Look, what are you planning, Neva, no

0:25:58.400 --> 0:26:01.360
<v Speaker 1>plans yet, But I'm sick and hired of this regime.

0:26:02.119 --> 0:26:04.280
<v Speaker 1>That's what this is called, by the way, a regime.

0:26:05.760 --> 0:26:09.560
<v Speaker 1>People are dying and suffering every day. Our father is

0:26:09.680 --> 0:26:19.200
<v Speaker 1>dead because of him. She was sad, but that sadness

0:26:19.480 --> 0:26:25.560
<v Speaker 1>quickly turned into anger. Horrible Anthias. When did they move

0:26:25.640 --> 0:26:30.080
<v Speaker 1>to the other house a few years after? Is it

0:26:30.240 --> 0:26:34.200
<v Speaker 1>still in Oho the Agua? Yes, that's what I like.

0:26:34.359 --> 0:26:38.920
<v Speaker 1>I told you that house is now where that museum is,
