Season 1 · Episode 2
Red Queen
Ezequiel has assassinated Álvaro Trueba and has kidnapped Carla Ortiz, both the firstborn of the most powerful families in Spain. Jon agrees to be Antonia's squire. Even though they started off with the wrong foot, they're about to catch Ezequiel after a fast-paced chase that has everyone on edge. In her cell, Carla finds out that she is not Ezequiel's only prisoner.

Extremely common in moments of intense anger or threat. The strength of the insult can vary with tone: it can express fury or, between very close friends, grudging respect. Context determines everything.
Always followed by a noun phrase: 'me cago en Dios', 'me cago en mi puta vida', etc. The full phrase is a fixed exclamation of extreme frustration or disbelief. The literal meaning is irrelevant; the whole structure functions as an outburst.
A fixed phrase used to dismiss someone or something with contempt, or to express that a situation has gone badly wrong. Can be directed at a person or used as a general expression of exasperation.
Refers to something false being passed off as true, or an excuse that sounds implausible. Often used to call out deception: 'no me vengas con camelos' means 'don't give me that rubbish'.
Literally 'billy goat', but functions entirely as an insult or strong term of endearment depending on tone and relationship. Between close male friends it can be warm; directed at an adversary it is a serious insult.
Refers to someone or something associated with wealth, privilege, and a certain affected style. Can be used neutrally to describe a social type or with a critical edge.
A vivid intensified phrase built on 'hostia' (a strong general expletive). The addition of 'como panes' amplifies the size and force. Used figuratively to mean doing something with great physical force.
A Basque word for 'mother', used here by the Basque character as a natural term of address. 'Agur' (goodbye/hello in Basque) also appears. These reflect the character's Basque identity and are not standard Castilian but occur naturally in speech from that region.
