Denver (Jaime Lorente) quickly became one of the most popular members of the Salvador Dal\u00ed gang, displaying a caring side when he secretly helped save the life of hostage Monica Gaztambide (Esther Acebo).<\/p>\n
The two eventually became an item, with Denver proving to be a much more caring partner for Monica than the self-obsessed Arturo Roman<\/a>, although there was some initial concern that she could have been suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.<\/p>\n Now a full-fledged member of the gang, Monica goes by the name Stockholm in reference to the condition, but she and Denver\u2019s relationship has been under heavy strain during the chaotic Bank of Spain heist.<\/p>\n The couple are raising a son on the outside world and so both are desperate to make it out alive, but with threats both outside and within the bank, it won\u2019t be easy for either of them.<\/p>\n Read on to find out Denver\u2019s fate in Money Heist<\/a> season five part one (spoilers<\/strong> follow).<\/p> In the opening episodes of Money Heist season five, part one, it looks as if time might be running out for Denver as he faces a barrage of bullets from his nemesis, Arturo.<\/p>\n Arturo manages to take hold of the gang\u2019s armoury, defending the position with an arsenal that includes a flamethrower, grenades and heavy duty machine guns.<\/p>\n Denver and his childhood friend Manila are taking cover behind a wall adjacent to the armoury corridor as they attempt to figure out a way around the attack.<\/p>\n However, Arturo is able to use Denver\u2019s hot-headedness against him, riling him up by claiming that Stockholm still only has eyes for him (for more on Arturo and Stockholm\u2019s affair, check out our complete Money Heist recap<\/a>).<\/p>\n Arturo wants Denver to come charging at him as he knows he will easily be able to gun him down, and Manila is terrified to see\u00a0 her cherished friend make that fateful mistake.<\/p>\n Denver runs out firing his fun at Arturo, who unleashes his flamethrower in return.<\/p>\n Fortunately, Manila is able to drag Denver back behind the cover with mere moments to spare before he would have been toast (literally), reminding him to stay calm and stick to the plan.<\/p>\n Denver gets in hot water once again later in the season when he is trapped in the Bank of Spain kitchen with Sagasta\u2019s squad closing in around him, but is able to escape down a catering lift shaft.<\/p>\n Ultimately, another member of the team is killed in that kitchen \u2013 for more on that, check out our breakdown of the Money Heist season five part one ending<\/a>.<\/p>\n Money Heist season 5 part 1 is available to stream on Netflix \u2013 read our guides to the best series on Netflix<\/a> and the best movies on Netflix<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Check out more of our Drama<\/a>\u00a0coverage or visit our\u00a0TV Guide<\/span><\/a>\u00a0to see what else is on.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n The fan-favourite character finds himself in peril in the opening episodes. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":3942,"template":"","categories":[1],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/does-denver-die-in-money-heist.jpg",620,413,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/does-denver-die-in-money-heist-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/does-denver-die-in-money-heist-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/does-denver-die-in-money-heist.jpg",620,413,false],"large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/does-denver-die-in-money-heist.jpg",620,413,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/does-denver-die-in-money-heist.jpg",620,413,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/does-denver-die-in-money-heist.jpg",620,413,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"importmanagerhub@sprylab.com","author_link":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/author\/importmanagerhubsprylab-com\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"The fan-favourite character finds himself in peril in the opening episodes.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed\/3941"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/rss_feed"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3942"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3941"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3941"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Does Denver die in Money Heist?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
