Sandro thinks he knows where Padre Vergara is being held, so he knocks out a guard to get there. While there, he sees the spear that pierced Jesus’s side while he was on the cross, and we hear a docent foreshadow the immortality powers of the spear. Sandro finally makes it to Castle Santiago and enters the World War II section of the museum. Word starts to spread around town about Mario’s return, which freaks out Jesus (Paco Tous), who basically has a huge meltdown. We see the old lady’s lips moving in sync with what Mario is saying, letting us know that she is controlling him like a puppet…also letting us know she’s kinky as hell. In the real world, Sandro leaves the prison and heads to the castle with hopes of finding his friend and saving him from whatever peril he is in.īack in Pedraza, Elena and Mario have weird, heavy-breathing-talk sex, while right outside their window is the old lady who raised him from the dead. Young Vergara uses one of the trading cards that has the angel of death on it to subtly tell Sandro he is being held in the catacombs underneath Castle Santiago. He falls asleep and gets transported back to ’70s Spain, where he runs into an adult Sandro (Leonardo Nigro) as they are being stalked by an adult Cardenal Santoro. In Padre Vergara’s jail cell, he drinks from a * gag* bottle of cigarette water without batting an eye, which brings into question how long he has been there, and this is just one of the many examples of the fluidity of time in this show. As Elena leaves the police station with Mario, we see the old lady who watered the scarecrow that he spawned from creepily standing outside of the police station. Elena sees her “missing” husband Mario (Víctor Clavijo) and is beyond overjoyed, while Paco is less than happy. Paco (Miguel Ángel Silvestre) and Sargento Lagunas (Pepón Nieto) get Elena back to town moments before she boards a plane to Paris with Roque (Antonio Velázquez). It does make sense that there isn’t one, though, since it is later revealed that the Cainites already have 29 coins and only need the coin that Elena has-well, had. It had always been a fun prologue to set the mood for the episodes, and they definitely feel a bit off without it. In case you were wondering, there is no awesome coin opening like in the other episodes, which was disappointing. Padre Vergara (Eduard Fernández) wakes up, and we see his is in a grungy jail cell. During recess, he and his friend trade cards-boy, do I miss those days before-his friend reveals that he is controlled by Giacomo/Cardenal Santoro (Manolo Solo) and questions the young Vergara about Elena (Megan Montaner). The next day in school, he flips through a monster magazine with some awesomely illustrated monster trading cards. He accidentally throws the ball over an embankment, and the dog falls to his death. We start in Spain in 1970 where we see a young Manuel Vergara playing ball with his sweet pup Rayo. Episode 5 “El doble (The Double)”Įpisode 5 takes a bit of a detour from the body horrors of the first few episodes and takes a psychological route before hitting us with a heaping dose of body horror in the episode’s final moments. Episodes 5 and 6 still aren’t the scariest in the series, but they provide some excellent moments of horror while simultaneously moving the story along perfectly. I was quite concerned that the show would keep going away from the horror and get more dramatic. Episodes 3 and 4 took a bit of a step back from that to provide some answers to the questions that had been raised while still giving us more questions. The first two episodes of 30 Coins started very raw and heavy, providing ample scares and mystery.
