Pedro & Dante Lure Aurora Into A Trap. Modesto Spies. Rosa Deals With Jessica Leaving Her Husband. Paloma Proves Brandon’s Innocence. Juan & Sarah Ki$$.
Pedro has invited Aurora to come to the hacienda to close their deal. He tells her that she doesn’t have to worry about Juan because he will come out and let her in. Dante will be there along with a notary. Pedro likes things done “legally.” Later, he tells Dante to meet them somewhere at the hacienda. Pedro plans to find out which of Aurora’s instincts is stronger: “to eat or to live” which is the same line she used on him when offering him some bread topped with rat poison.
That night, Aurora enters the barn AKA tortüre central with Aurora wondering why Pedro didn’t want to do business in the house. Dante advises her not to ask so many questions but thinks that Pedro didn’t want to risk Juan seeing her. The notary is coming with Pedro. She is happy that things are turning out better than expected.
Dante chuckles and agrees. Pedro arrives but Aurora notices that there is no notary with him. There are no papers for her to sign. She tells them she knew this was a trap and pulls a gün on them.Pedro assures her that the notary and the papers are coming. Aurora calls him a liar and a coward just like his father who abandoned her with him and Juan in her arms.
Pedro tells her to shut up. Her finger is on the trigger when somebody appears at the top of the staircase behind Pedro but is seen by no one. Pedro has gotten close to Aurora who is accusing him of always being a traitor especially with Juan. He took Juan’s bread to feed himself when there was no food. Pedro tells her to shoot him and k!ll him. He knows she wanted to since he was a child.
Dante tries to calm her down and have her lower the gün by showing her papers in his briefcase. Everything is in order. Aurora makes the mistake of grabbing some papers and glancing at them. Pedro is on her in a second. Dante gives him a cloth with chloroform and she soon loses consciousness. Pedro tells Dante to leave. Dante asks him what he is going to do.
Pedro tells him to leave a second time and not to ask stüpid questions. We see that it was Modesto standing on the stairs as he quickly leaves. Pedro drags the unconscious Aurora into his special room. Deborah is dreaming of a woman saying she wants to talk to her. Later, she opens her eyes and she is back among the living! Juan tells Simón that their mother is back.
He signed over his share of the refuge to her in an attempt to have her leave Pedro alone. He is afraid of what Pedro might do. Simón asks if he would be capable of… Juan doesn’t want to find out. Juan knows that she cannot sell her share but he says that she doesn’t know that. Simón tells Juan that Sarah has taken Pedro’s place as Vice President while he has recently been away from company business.
She has done a good job. If he only didn’t hate her so much. Juan cannot believe that he still hates her. Juan asks Simón to arrange a memorial mass for Severiano. Simón has no time. By the way, Juan wants to hear what really happened the day of the accident because Agustín said he saw Simón running from the SUV.
Did he leave their dad to die??? Sarah saves Simón by interrupting the conversation and quickly fainting into Juan’s arms. Juan revives her when Beatriz brings some smelling salts. Sarah says she is fine. She doesn’t want the doctor. Beatriz plays along saying the nausea and fainting are from all of the stress in her life that probably gave her a case of gastritis.
Sarah readily agrees. Alone in her office, she admits to Bea that she is pregnant. Beatriz tells her she won’t be able to hide that fact much longer. Lucas comes in exasperated and tells Bea and Sarah all about the cruel things that Pedro said to Mateo. Bea tells her that is who the REAL Pedro is. That seems to give Sarah pause. She will talk to him later.
Julieta asks a ranch hand Patrocinio to see a certain horse that nobody, not even Mateo has been able to tame. Berta finds a receipt for a bottle of wine after reading online that Debora was poisoned by a bottle of wine. She tries to hide it from Rosa but Rosa makes her hand it over. Rosa is all excited. The wine must be the surprise that Prospi has been promising her. Berta has to remind her that Deborah was poisoned via a bottle of wine.
Rosa insists it would be impossible for Prospi to poison a mosquito. Berta thinks it would be different if it were a person threatening to destroy his family. Bertha was not able to find the bottle he bought. If Deborah were to die, they could take the fabric store!! Jessica appears and talks about getting a divorce. Rosa asks her not to do that.
Jessica sees no way out. Rosa asks her to think about it; to reconsider. She does her own riff on Ruth from the Old Testament: His people will be your people, his house will be your house… Jessica insists that she will not live with the Cruz family again. Rosa tells her to pack up her things because Rosa is ready to deliver her to the Cruz family for her own good.
That same night, Rosa explains that Jessica is the one who got married and got herself into this mess. She puts the old headscarf on her head to make her look more like a pathetic victim for when she arrives at the Cruz house. Rosa says none of her daughters will suffer the dishonor of a husband leaving her. Jessica insists that she is not going.
Brayan is cheating on her. She turns around to go back to her room when Rosa takes off the flip flop. We hear it whoosh through the air and it hits Jessica square in the back of her head. Berta is shocked!!! Rosa says that is how her mother, may she rest in peace, raised her. She tells Jessica she is going either the easy way or the hard way. Bertha criticizes Rosa for using violence.
Rosa says nothing else has worked and it really wasn’t a very hard strike but a hit with a shoe. Prospi arrives and Jessica runs to her father saying that the slippers hit her so hard it nearly broke her neck. Prospi asks Rosa why she did it. Rosa says that is how she was brought up and makes a point of the excellent person she grew up to be.
She commandeers Prospi to assist her in delivering Jessica to her husband at the Cruz house. At the cantina, Cornelio brings back the bottle of wine that he “borrowed” from Salvador. Cornelio tells Prospi the story of the scar on his face and how Deborah is paying for it now. He hopes she is paid back in triple for all of the evil she has done.
Lucas explains to Juan that he was late because Mateo was very upset. Pedro was telling all sorts of crazy things to Mateo like their parents never løved him like the rest of them, etc. Juan tries to call Pedro but there is no answer so he goes to find him. Lucas warns him about getting into a fight with Pedro let alone here at the company. Juan says he will protect his brothers.
Lucas agrees that is what he says but that hasn’t changed anything with Pedro who has been very strange as of late. Juan confronts Pedro about what he said to Mateo about their parents not løving him because he was an alcoholic. Pedro blames it all on gossipy Lucas. Juan also asks about him warning Lucas from getting involved with Sarah.
Pedro makes it clear he doesn’t want any of the brothers around Sarah except for him. Juan doesn’t want Pedro doing any more damage to Mateo or to any of their brothers. Salvador talks with Dulce about Brandon. She has a photo on her phone of Mati with that backpack. She will send it to him. Paloma is able to prove Brandon’s innocence with the photo.
The commander says they still have to prove that the photo is authentic. Mati finally confesses and Brandon is freed without any charges. Mati confesses that she did it out of jealousy. Juan starts to eat a cookie and then has a realization of what could be happening when he has time to think about Sarah fainting and then remembering their løvemaking.
He nervously just keeps eating that cookie as he considers the possibility of Sarah being pregnant. Sarah wants to talk to Pedro. Sorry, he has to meet with Mr. Villanueva today. They go through the niceties of asking how she and her mother are doing. Sarah insists on telling him what she must, whatever the case is with Mr. Villanueva: they need to put some distance between them.
Pedro insists she is the only woman he has ever løved besides his mother Catalina and he has no plans of losing her.Sarah says she decided to give it a chance with him but things have happened that have changed everything. He accuses her of still being in løve with Juan. She tells him he cannot force her to feel things for him that she doesn’t.
His message is that he løves her and she will løve him sooner or later. He then walks out on her. Lucas asks Pedro for some reports that Juan requested and Pedro punches him in the face for gossiping about him to Juan. Juan finally appears on the scene to stop him. He easily grabs Pedro and nearly twists his arm out of the socket with the warning not to touch Lucas again.
Another day, another show at Avocado Central! Sarah tells Juan that Pedro is furious because she clarified a few things with him. Juan tells her that he løves her and that will never change. They try not to but end up ki$$ing in plain view in his office. Simón comes home only to find that Paloma is not there but is helping the Cruz family at the police station. He is mad that she didn’t let him know what she was doing again.
Julieta taunts him, saying that he probably was the one who pøisoñed Deborah. BTW, his wife discovered that he was looking up antidepressants on his laptop. That could cause somebody to go into a coma. Simón says he thought that her poisøn would have lessened with her pregnancy but she is still a harpy.
Julieta would rather be a harpy than a mürderer. Simón says that she is defaming him and that could really cost her. Julieta says she is only repeating what she heard. Modesto asks: Who is she to slander Simón?? Wasn’t it enough to destroy Mateo??? Modesto tells her she has become unbearable.
Simón says she always was but fooled them. She tells them if they do not support her, they can both get out of the house. Mateo appears wanting to talk to her without arguing. Bottom line: He says he is ready to move on. He knows that the baby she is expecting is not his. Julieta doesn’t want to discuss anything about the baby.
She doesn’t care what Mateo does. The baby will be his nephew!!! She wants the DNA test results back. Mateo says he burned them but he really has them in a drawer. He thinks about finding out the truth at the lab himself. Salvador is about to leave Adela and her family at their home. Adela says he can stay because he acted so much like a father.
They all tell Brandon that he should have learned some valuable lessons from his experience. Brandon tells Agustín that he will no longer be looking for his dad because he found a father in Salvador. As soon as Juan and Sarah arrive at the house, Julieta is all over him making her “ownership” of Juan apparent.
Later, Sarah is going to her room and Juan meets her in the hall, saying he wants to explain a few things to her. She says there is nothing to explain because he and Julieta are married. Julieta appears telling her to not bother Juan because he is a married man. She objects to Juan talking to Sarah alone but Juan insists. He will meet her in the office.
In her room, Sarah wonders what to do. At times like this, she really needs her mother. On his way to the office, Juan is looking for Modesto and cannot find him because unbeknownst to him, he is spying on Pedro’s tortüre chamber. Sarah appears in the office telling Juan that he is right.
