Episode 6 of Season 2 of Turn of the Tide starts with a tense drug pickup that quickly goes wrong. Eduardo tricks Frias and takes her to Joe’s boat instead of the real drop. She rushes to check it out when she sees a flare on the other side of the island, not knowing that someone has already tricked her.
How do the Azoreans get the shipment to its destination?
The real exchange happens in a different place. A plane drops the drugs into the ocean, where Rafael and Eduardo pick them up. They go to an abandoned harbor to make the handoff with the help of Rafael’s friend and his modified high-speed car.
Anti-drug protesters stop them on their way, so they have to hide in an empty theater. Bruna finds them while showing Grandma Rosa around the building. She breaks up with him because she doesn’t like how he puts his friends before her.
The group stays out of sight for a day to avoid Frias, who is looking for them. After the heat dies down, they finish delivering to Fagnar and get their cut.
Meanwhile, a powerful person named Moniz throws a party for important people. He raises a glass to a district attorney who wants to run for regional president. But soon after, his bodyguard tells him about a problem, and Moniz leaves right away. It is clear that he is the buyer for Ofelia’s most recent shipment.
Why is Frias not working?
Frias is getting a lot of criticism for not getting results. The district attorney takes back her support, saying that Frias has made her look bad. Frias fires back, saying that the DA cares more about getting elected than doing the right thing, which makes things worse.
At the same time, Frias’ daughter Mariana is swimming and looks like she’s waiting for someone.
As more and more people complain about Frias’s methods of investigation, her problems get worse. Banha is one of those who files a complaint against her. He clearly enjoys telling her that she has been suspended.
Frias kidnaps Eduardo and threatens him with a gun to get answers. Francisco steps in and pulls her away before things get out of hand. Later, Frias goes home to find that it has been broken into and Mariana is gone. She panics because she thinks her daughter has been kidnapped.
Why does Fagnar turn on Ofelia?
From the beginning, Fagnar has been uneasy about working with the Azoreans. He is upset that Ofelia doesn’t seem to care that the shipment is late. Ofelia says that after four months of trying and failing, the Azores are the best way to get into Europe.
She starts to trust Silvia more and more, even giving her new tasks to do, even though he is worried. Fagnar becomes more and more cautious when he realizes he is no longer her right-hand man.
He calls his brother, who is the source of the cocaine, and they talk about how unpredictable Ofelia is. They agree that it was a bad idea to bring the drugs to the Azores. They have to get rid of her if they can’t control her.
Fagnar kills Ofelia and then goes to work tying up loose ends.
What Happens to the Azoreans in the End?
Silvia, Rafael, Carlos, Ian, Joe, and Eduardo celebrate their success at a nearby arcade. At the same time, Frias kidnaps Eduardo in a last-ditch effort to find out what happened.
Fagnar shows up at the arcade out of nowhere and starts shooting. Carlos, Silvia, and Rafael get away into the theater, but the attackers set fire to the entrance, trapping them inside. The gunmen come in through the windows and look for them one by one.
Joe finds Eduardo and they try to help the other people. Marcelino watches them from a distance and then follows them. The fire separates the group inside. Carlos knocks out a gunman to save Rafael, and Fagnar chases Silvia, who has the money.
Joe locks Eduardo in the projection room and blows himself up with grenades, killing both himself and the remaining gunmen.
Fagnar confronts Silvia and demands the money, saying that the group stole cocaine. Eduardo barely has time to think about the loss. Eduardo steps in, and Marcelino uses a toy gun to keep Fagnar busy while Silvia kills him.
The police finally show up. Eduardo takes Silvia’s gun and says he killed Fagnar, which gets him arrested. The fire destroys the money.
What comes next?
Silvia is now raising her child with Rafael. Eduardo is free from prison, but he doesn’t want to start over. He wants to get back at them.
Review of the Episode
Episode 6 is a thrilling and explosive end to the season. The town used to be a quiet place to fish, but now it’s full of crime and stress because of the discovery of the sunken cocaine.
Ofelia was a tough enemy, but the show raises the stakes even higher by making Eduardo a new and very personal threat. His change seems deserved, shaped by loss, betrayal, and being locked up.
The show keeps getting more dangerous, as it has been doing. Every season, new, more powerful, and dangerous players join the game. These players range from local criminals like Arruda to larger-than-life figures like Monti and Ofelia. Fagnar and his brother now push that threat even further.
At the same time, Frias’ story shows that the system is even more corrupt than it seems. The so-called anti-drug DA and people like Moniz point to a much more complicated and corrupt power structure, which suggests that the real danger may go beyond the streets.
