Still inside his office having a meeting with Fuentes ,the district attorney and doctor Tatiana . Alfonso's secretary Dulcey opened the door and asked doctor Alfonso if he could step out for a minute, it was urgent . Alfonso wondered what it was all about , followed Dulcey out .
"Alright what is that so urgent Dulcey?"
"Doctor , something bad has just happened . I went to look for Gloria for some forms , she wasn't there and asking around , a nurse told me she saw her leaving with doctor Ignasia and that Gloria looked terrified as the two left the hospital . I think doctor Ignasia is having her as a hostage ."
"I can not believe this is going on , how did he even enter the university without anyone noticing him ?"
Before Dulcey could tell him how she didn't know . Sanchez came out from his office after finalizing a conversation he was having with a bank teller on a phone , told him Ignasia had been spotted in a bank trying to withdraw money from his account , he's believed to have a nurse with him who looks uncomfortable with him around .
"That's Gloria , he's having her as a hostage ." Alfonso looked agitated .
"Well then I have to go now . I need to get my team and catch this man." The attorney left .
"I'll also go to the security room and see how exactly he took Gloria out of the hospital."
Fuentes and Tatiana came and joined him , with Dulcey behind them , they all went to the security room. Alfonso asked the head of the security to show them a footage in the hallway three hours ago , the guard played the footage and left the doctors to find what they were looking for . Alfonso rewinded , saw Ignasia threatening her with a pair of scissors just after he came out of a classroom , after a small chat , took her outside the university, then later he had his eyes in the camera at the hospital's exit door .
"What is he doing by looking into the camera ?" Alfonso asked .
"He's trying to prove that he's way smarter than us." Fuentes explained. "People like him who have always been ignored , felt lonely , in moments like this , they're seeking for recognition ."
At the bank , the bank teller came back from making her call . Ignasia gave her the form he had finished filling in , she went through it , then apologized to him , claimed that it was a wrong form she'd given them to fill in , asked them to wait so that she could bring them right form , she ripped up the form which he'd finished filling in into pieces , left her seat again to go get the right form . Gloria was watching quietly everything that was going on , Ignasia had told her not to say a word till he ask to speak .
The bank teller instead picked up a landline telephone and made a call again , turning around to see what the bank teller was upto . Ignasia saw her making a call and at the same time staring at them , for a criminal like him, always suspicious of his surrounding , he realized she was making a call to the police , asked Gloria to get up . Gloria asked what was going on .
"The bitch is killing time , she wants the police to catch us ."
"What do you mean by 'us'? You're the one running away from the police , not me ."
"Shut up , will you ? Just get up , we have to leave this place as soon as possible."
Both rushed out of the teller's room ,and on taking stairs down to use the exit , he saw the police coming up , ran back inside the bank with Gloria still at scissor point , tried to use the back door of the bank , the police was also there , all the exits were surrounded , eventually the two were also surrounded . Ignasia got the scissors , held them at Gloria's throat threatening to cut her if they got any closer, the police insisted on coming closer to them , came closer and closer trying to calm him down , without firing any gun shot , one of the policemen jumped onto him from the back , grabbed the hand that had the scissors and had it at Ignasia's back , he was in pain , the police man got a chance to the other hand and Ignasia was already on floor , screaming 'let me go , let me go ' , they arrested him as many people in the bank and journalists started crowding .
