"La casa de papel" (English: "The House of Paper") is the series premiere of the Spanish television series La Casa de Papel (known in English as Money Heist). The episode was directed by Jesús Colmenar and written by series creator Álex Pina and Esther Martínez Lobato. It first aired on Antena 3 on May 2, 2017.

The episode introduces "El Profesor" (Álvaro Morte) and his assembled team of eight robbers, each named after cities, as they prepare to execute the biggest heist in history: printing €2.4 billion in the Royal Mint of Spain. External links:

Álvaro Morte was cast as El Profesor after Pina saw his theater work. Ursula Corberó underwent weapons training for three weeks. The red jumpsuits and Dalí masks were chosen after the production team rejected 30 other designs, including clown masks and Venetian carnival masks.

The episode opens with a voiceover from Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó), the unreliable narrator. She describes her life as a fugitive after a botched robbery that led to her boyfriend's death. A mysterious figure known as "El Profesor" (Álvaro Morte) recruits her for an ambitious heist: to print 2.4 billion euros in the Royal Mint of Spain, not steal from the vaults.

Act One: The Preparation The Professor assembles the team at an abandoned estate outside Madrid. He assigns them city-based pseudonyms to ensure anonymity: Tokyo, Berlin, Nairobi, Rio, Denver, Moscow, Helsinki, and Oslo. The episode establishes key tensions: Tokyo and Rio’s immediate romantic attraction (forbidden by The Professor), Berlin’s cold sociopathy, and Moscow’s fatherly wisdom. The Professor reveals the plan in five phases, but only the first two are fully explained in this episode.

Act Two: The Robbery The team enters the Royal Mint disguised in red jumpsuits and Dalí masks. They take 67 hostages without firing a shot, though Berlin fires a warning round to assert control. The episode contrasts The Professor (outside, coordinating from a mobile command center disguised as a silver camper van) with Inspector Raquel Murillo (Itziar Ituño), the lead negotiator. Their first phone call establishes a psychological chess match: The Professor demands no police intervention under the threat of executing one hostage every hour.

Act Three: The Twist The "plan within the plan" is revealed. While the police believe the robbers intend to melt gold, The Professor explains that they will stay inside for 11 days to print untraceable money. The episode ends with a cliffhanger: Rio is forced to shoot a hostage to prove they are serious, but it is revealed to be a theatrical blank. The final shot shows The Professor removing his glasses, revealing a cold, obsessive intensity behind the avuncular exterior.

The episode opens with a woman known as Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó) being interviewed by a man who will become her leader. She recounts robbing an armored truck, killing two men in the process, and ending up on the run. The man, who introduces himself only as The Professor (Álvaro Morte), has spent years planning the biggest heist in history.

Six months later, Tokyo is part of a team of eight robbers, all named after cities to hide their true identities: Berlin (Pedro Alonso), Nairobi (Alba Flores), Rio (Miguel Herrán), Denver (Jaime Lorente), Moscow (Paco Tous), Helsinki (Darko Perić), and Oslo (Roberto García Ruiz). The Professor, from an external hideout, explains the plan: infiltrate the Royal Mint of Spain and print €2.4 billion in untraceable currency. The heist is not about stealing money from the vault but about controlling the printing presses.

The team enters the Mint disguised in red jumpsuits and Salvador Dalí masks. They take 67 hostages, including the Mint’s director, Arturo Román (Enrique Arce). Berlin, the field leader, establishes a strict code of conduct: no personal relationships, no violence unless necessary, and absolute discipline. However, tensions arise when Rio, the young hacker, shows fear, and Tokyo begins to develop feelings for him.

Outside, Inspector Raquel Murillo (Itziar Ituño) of the National Police is assigned to lead the crisis. She establishes a perimeter and attempts to establish contact with the Professor, who uses a voice modulator. The episode ends with the Professor calmly telling Raquel that the only way to resolve the situation is to let them finish their work—and revealing that the hostages have been given a red pill or blue pill choice (stay with them or be released), playing a psychological game of "us versus them."
