In the climactic sixth episode of Netflix's "1992," titled "I Did What I Was Told," the threads of deception and revenge are finally woven together as the characters face the consequences of their actions. The episode opens with Richi at Ramiro's club, a gloomy setting that sets the tone for the unfolding drama. As he cautiously enters Ramiro's room, he discovers the gruesome scene of Ramiro's death, with a dildo in his mouth and Amparo's phone nearby, sparking panic in Richi.
Amparo, however, is safe and calls Richi to exchange information. Meanwhile, Esteban is in a desperate situation, lacking the funds to pay off the blackmailer. His colleague suggests seeking help from Teresa's family, who fortunately come to his aid. Esteban sends the money to a locker at the train station, unaware of the impending danger.
The episode delves into the complex dynamics between the characters, particularly Esteban and Teresa. When Esteban tries to sleep with Teresa, she cruelly asks him to fantasize about Margarita, highlighting the emotional turmoil and manipulation at play. Meanwhile, the killer, Victor, arrives at Esteban's residence and uses a flamethrower on the security. In a twist, someone calls Esteban, urging him to kill Victor and warning him of the dire consequences if he fails.
Teresa locks herself in a safe space, leaving Esteban vulnerable to Victor's attack. Richi and Amparo arrive just in time to diffuse the fire and rescue Esteban. As they talk to Teresa, they are surprised to learn that someone warned Esteban, adding another layer of mystery to the situation.
The investigation leads Richi and Amparo to suspect Fernando, who is fleeing from Seville. Richi recalls seeing a post from a company that people usually visit when their business is failing, prompting Amparo to ask Carmen to investigate Fernando's financial situation. Carmen confirms their suspicions, revealing that Fernando is heading to Madrid and his company has been seized.
At the train station, Fernando collects the money left by Esteban, while Carmen follows him. A flashback shows Fernando settling down with a whiskey, contemplating his next move. He had been manipulating Victor, using him to exact revenge on those he deemed responsible for his failures. Fernando's plan included fabricating an email to fool Amparo and staging a bombing to build an alibi.
However, his scheme unravels when Victor, armed with a flamethrower, confronts him on the train. Despite Fernando's pleas, Victor burns him, leading to a chaotic chase involving Richi, Amparo, and the police. Victor's flamethrower malfunctions, and Amparo, now in possession of a gun, shoots the tank on Victor's back, ending his reign of terror.
The episode concludes with the police conducting routine questioning, and Carmen showing sympathy towards Amparo and Richi. The discovery of Margarita's son hidden beneath the rocket at the old Expo site provides closure to one of the story's tragic arcs. Teresa starts a new political party, using the scandal to boost her own career, while Richi and Amparo begin to move forward with their lives.
"I Did What I Was Told" is a masterful conclusion to the series, tying up loose ends and revealing the true extent of Fernando's manipulation. The episode highlights the characters' resilience and determination to seek justice, even in the face of overwhelming odds. As the dust settles, the characters must come to terms with the consequences of their actions and find a way to move forward, forever changed by the events that unfolded during the 1992 Seville Expo.
