What starts as a small-time operation quickly escalates. Martín, the intelligent and calculated narrator, rises through the ranks, while Pepe becomes the impulsive, violent enforcer. Season 1 meticulously traces their transformation from innocent young men into wealthy, paranoid capos. The title— Sapos (snitches)—casts a long shadow.
