If the first five episodes of Amazon’s gripping football corruption drama El Presidente were a slow, tactical build-up—a midfield passing drill, if you will—then Episode 6, titled simply “PPV” , is a full-blown, injury-time red card brawl. This is the episode where the abstract concept of “fraud” turns into literal, physical violence, and the show’s protagonist, Sergio Jadue, makes a Faustian bargain that changes the sport forever. The episode opens in the aftermath of a disastrous friendly match between Chile’s Colo-Colo and a disinterested European giant (fictionalized here as “Real Madridsteel”).

Jadue (played with manic desperation by Alejandro Goic) realizes that traditional gate revenue and TV rights for minor leagues are worthless.
