Land of Women – Season 1 Episode 2  1

As Gala and Julia embark on a mission to reclaim the funds from Amat's abode, Kate shifts her focus to mending their vehicular troubles. Her path intersects with a charming mechanic, who, with a twist of fate, offers her a lift to the airport—a ticket to home, procured by Maggie's compassionate intervention. Their casual conversation unwittingly stirs within Kate a flood of memories, replaying her initial encounter with Maggie's parents and a poignant discussion with her father about her gender journey.

Meanwhile, Gala and Julia's pursuit of financial solace hits a dead end; the money, it transpires, has been diverted by Amat towards a shiny new tractor, a testament to his commitment to the cooperative's progress. In a collective uproar, the community lays claim to Gala's perceived debt, a weighty accusation that hangs heavily in the air.

Driven by determination, the women steer their way to Mariona's doorstep, seeking answers for the unauthorized sale of their home. Gala's world is shaken to its core when Mariona drops a bombshell—Julia's forty-year silence had cast her into a virtual limbo, a state of existence so distant it might as well have been nonexistence. Furthermore, a hint of deceit lingers in the air, as Mariona insinuates that Julia had fabricated the tale of Gala's father's premature demise, a fabrication that shapes the very fabric of Gala's identity.

Julia desperately clings to the lie, her web of deceit unraveling as she leads Gala to a fabricated grave. The truth eventually spills from her lips, revealing that her father's demise is a fabrication, leaving Gala to grapple with the reality that he could be any face among the town's denizens.

Their world collides with an unexpected encounter—the mechanic, who drops a bombshell: Kate is headed to the airport. Panicked, Julia and Gala scramble to hitch a ride with Amat, their hearts racing as they chase after Kate, determined to prevent her departure.

Gala's hand is forced; she must confess the chilling truth to Kate—that menacing forces lurk in the shadows, driven by their debt. With tears in her eyes, Kate is swayed to stay, yet Gala's heart is heavy with the weight of their uncertain future.

Amat, seated beside her, offers a mea culpa for the theft, pledging to rectify his mistake by reimbursing her from the cooperative's future success. Gala, however, is skeptical, her palate having already judged their wine as lacking. But amidst despair, a glimmer of hope emerges. As a seasoned sommelier, she realizes she could transform their fortunes, transforming their subpar vintage into a lucrative venture that might just secure her own financial redemption.

Amat, touched by her resolve, welcomes them under his roof, offering a temporary respite. Yet, far away in La Muga, Maggie's anxiety mounts as Kate fails to appear at the airport. Her calls to her father reveal a chilling truth: he's colluding with the loan sharks, their reach now extended, closing in on Gala's whereabouts with a newfound clarity.
