After two years in hiding, the Professor’s crew is scattered across the globe, trying to live anonymous lives. However, their peaceful existence is shattered when Rio is captured in a brutal international operation. This act forces the band back together, proving that walking away from their past is impossible. The Professor, seeing Rio as family, immediately begins orchestrating a new, even more audacious plan to rescue him.
The team reunites to launch their most daring heist yet: targeting the Bank of Spain. This new plan is not about the money but is a direct, high-stakes assault on the system that took one of their own. The Professor’s strategy is a complex web of political manipulation, using the bank’s vast gold reserves as a weapon against the state. The mission is clear: break into the impregnable vault and create enough chaos to force the authorities to negotiate for Rio’s freedom.
Inside the bank, the heists become a tense and violent siege as they take numerous hostages, including the pregnant daughter of the UK Ambassador. The crew, now iconic public figures in their red jumpsuits and Salvador Dalí masks, must contend with a new, more aggressive enemy: the military. Colonel Tamayo and ruthless inspector Sierra, now in charge of the police operation, are determined to end the heist without negotiation, leading to brutal confrontations.
Outside, the Professor faces his greatest challenge as his meticulous plan begins to unravel under intense pressure. His greatest threat is Inspector Alicia Sierra, a cunning and unpredictable adversary who begins to methodically dismantle his operations from the outside. The Professor’s control over the situation is constantly tested, creating a nerve-wracking battle of wits where a single mistake could mean death for everyone inside the bank.
The season builds to a series of explosive climaxes as alliances are tested and sacrifices are made. The crew must navigate internal conflicts, external assaults, and shocking betrayals to survive. The mission evolves from a simple rescue into a full-blown revolution, captivating the public’s imagination and turning the thieves into symbols of resistance against an oppressive system, setting the stage for an even greater conflict.
