Caray, Caray!

Veronica sobs asking Renata for forgiveness for what she did with Bertha. Renata is angry as she finally puts together in her small head exactly what Bertha has been doing to her. She realizes out loud that Miranda was right, her aunt had her and Flor hypnotized. She hangs her mouth long and open as she shakes her head in denial. She yells how she wishes she could have Bertha in front of her to yell at her what all she deserves. The gun shots interrupt Renata's pity party. Veronica wisely surmises that the shots came from inside the house and they should go. Renata grabs the baby and they head for Gonzalo's bedroom because there is direct access to the garage from his room.

Bertha and Guapo argue in the kitchen over Charo's body. Guapo squats over Charo's body and fiddles with his gun. He holds the gun so the tip touches the back of Charo's head. Bertha, who is upset, tells Guapo he should have a machine gun so that he can be heard from ten blocks away. When Guapo checks for Charo's breathing they find that she is not quite dead. Bertha didn't want gun shots fired. She calls Guapo stupid and scolds him for doing what he wants. He is making her tired. Guapo undeterred by her words goes looking for the baby. Bertha, with briefcase/purse in hand, follows him from behind.

Veronica and Renata, both in heels, stumble into the kitchen and begin ugly crying when they discover Charo's body. The noise they make it is a wonder Guapo doesn't hear them. They touch Charo’s back and learn from that quick touch that she is not dead, just hurt. They head out for the street.

Amparo, Carola, Raul and Francisco talk over the Sanson incident. Francisco wants to report Sanson to the police. The others argue that he can’t do that, it will be dangerous. Finally Amparo stands up agreeing that he is right. Francisco gives a lecture that he has to do what's right to serve as an example for them and for their children. The law is the law and without it you can’t pass through the arc of triumph. Francisco and Raul leave to report Sanson with Amparo's blessing that the Virgin watch over them.

Veronica and Renata with baby in arms head outside to immediately hail a taxi. They are off for an undisclosed place. Meanwhile in the mansion Bertha and Guapo enter the library. Bertha can’t believe that Charo was right that no one was in the house. The house phone rings while they are there and they listen to the answering machine take the message. It's Miranda leaving a message that Gabino has given her proof against Bertha that he had kept hidden away. Guapo wants to know what Miranda is talking about. Bertha denies knowing but her hand is at her forehead showing her distress. She wants to go before the police come and find them there. Guapo reaches out to touch Bertha. She yells No and slaps his good hand away. She dares him to touch her or she will break his teeth. She threatens that if he tries to put his dirty hand (singular hand that is, the good hand) on her again she swears he will regret it, as he already knows.

In Gonzalo’s old green office Santiago pleads with Al that he can’t do anything against Cesar and Bertha. He asks Al to put himself in his shoes. Al yells that he can’t, Bertha and Cesar are always steps ahead of them. They have to do something. Santiago says he cant, the evil duo have his hands and feet tied. Fab, who has been sitting in the back of the office, joins in agreeing with Santiago that Bertha and Cesar and their henchmen (secuaces) are dangerous. Al suggests that they come up with a trap for C and B. Santiago says they don't have corrupt enough minds to think up a trap like the evil duo. As the men are about to leave the office Al comes up with the idea to have Santiago's bank account available for him. Al thinks it's the best way to get the evil duo in their hands.

Roman waits outside Santiago’s office. When Santiago arrives Roman tries to get Santiago to agree that he won’t tell anyone that he has spoken with Nuria and Luis Alberto. Ramon wants an agreement before he will let Santiago see them. Santiago, under duress, agrees to not say anything.

Marisol baits Lilliana to drink too much and to talk too much about Alejandro. From the lightning and paintings in the background they appear to be in a French restaurant during the day. However Lilliana is drinking like it is New Years Eve. There are 3 or 4 empty margarita glasses (one the rocks, not frozen) in front of Lilliana. Her hair is perfect but she speaks as if she is drunk. After some prodding and encouragement from Marisol, Lilliana stands up in the room and yells that she loves Alejandro Luque. Marisol grins, her plan is working. Lilliana leaves for the restroom and Marisol picks up Lilly's cell phone to call Al. She tells Al that Lilly is drunk and he needs to come and pick her up. After a few words Al agrees to come get her. Lilliana returns from the bathroom none the wiser to Marisols little phone game. She tells Marisol she is dizzy and wants to go home. Marisol tells her to drink another drink.

Bertha yells at Guapo to leave the house. He wants to know why she is staying but she doesn't tell him. He asks if she is still angry about what happened. She answers that every time that she remembers she is repulsed, he raped her! He taunts her to show him even one bit of proof of violence, one bruise; something that shows that he raped her. The only thing he did was to follow the rules of her game. With wide eyes she tells him to go and he does. She walks around the empty mansion looking in amazement at the empty rooms. She makes sounds as if she is having orgasms as she tours the rooms. She starts to talk to herself saying that all of this was mine or no ones. The mansion San Llorente will never be what it was. The days of glory for this family have ended. Ghosts! Ghosts! She continues with her noises and states I did it! I achieved it. She then reaches for her cell phone and calls for an ambulance saying there was an injury.

Al arrives at the restaurant to find Lilliana passed out on the table. He asks Marisol why she let Lilly get like this. Marisol claims Lilly was like this when she arrived. She leaves the passed out Lilly with Al. He orders coffee and after I guess some time we see Lily sitting up straight again. Wow I never knew coffee worked that fast! Al asks Lilly why she drank so much. She tells him she did it for him, because she loves him. She tells him to forgive her; she still doesn't know what she is saying. He is sweet to her and he tells her he will take her home. He pays the bill and they leave.

Santiago and Ramon chit chat on a bench outside his office. Santiago has been debriefed about all of Ramon’s actions for Gonzalo. Santiago believes he is a changed man and encourages Ramon to go after Amparo. Nuria runs up claiming that Florencia’s death was her fault. Santiago calms her down by stating the facts, Flor died from heart disease. Luis Alberto stands by Nuria and claims he has tried to tell Nuria the same thing. Nuria tells Santiago that they are going to leave the country. Santiago tries to get them to stay because they are fundamental witnesses against the evil duo. Luis Alberto tells Santiago that he doesn’t understand how bad B and C are nor does he understand what they will do to retaliate if Nuria and LA report them. Santiago looks over his shoulder at Ramon.

Fernanda wants to report Bertha, Guapo, Cesar and Sanson. Her daughters are at risk. Juan tells her when she wants to he is ready to help her report them. Veronica and Renata plus baby burst into the office.

Fermin and Vicente talk about Santiago’s account. Vicente wants to know if the original documents have Berthas handwriting on them. Fermin thinks they do and suggests that they need to compare the documents to others written by Bertha. Vicente wants to get Mexico's best hand writing analyst to review the documents. He will ask Lilliana to contact the analyst because she works with the analyst all the time. Lilly’s involvement with this family never ceases.

Veronica and Renata tell Juan and Fernanda about the shots. Veronica is still sporting toilet paper on her mouth where she was injured by Sanson. I want to wipe it off. Anyhow they tell how they left in a hurry leaving their purses and cell phones. They wanted to call an ambulance for Charo but couldn't because they had left all their stuff. Renata calls from Ferns office to find that someone else has already called for an ambulance. The ambulance is bringing Charo to Ferns hospital, of course. Never mind that Mexico City is the largest city in the world, there is only one hospital that counts for these folks. .

Gabino, Arcadia, Miranda and Naty talk about the harvest. According to their records they will have a high production volume for the harvest. Naty tries to add that they make the best chocolate, gourmet chocolate but she stumbles on the word gourmet. She can’t get the word out and Miranda laughs helping her say the word. (Was this an ad lib contribution?) They believe they will recuperate what they have lost. Gabino needs more wrappers so Miranda tells him to sell another car. Fernanda calls with news about Charo. Miranda pleads for Fern to help Charo because without her testimony Alejandro will be lost. Commercial time. Miranda wants Veronica, Renata and the baby to come to the hacienda for safety. Fern has to tell her that they are with Andrea because they do not have money for the trip there. Fernanda ends the conversation telling Miranda that she is going to file an act against Bertha and Cesar. There is hesitation from Miranda but she relents. Fern tells Miranda to hold on for one more thing. The blood on the handkerchief is the same type of blood that Cesar has. (Which Cesar admitted to having when Flor needed a blood transfusion.)

Fabricio enters Florencia's bedroom talking to himself. No one is home and he is scared about the baby. He calls Al, who, still does not know about what has happened to Charo. Al tells Fab to not touch anything and to come to the office right away. Al calls Fern and gets the scoop. He tells Vicente and Fermin that another witness is injured.

Naty advises Miranda to not worry, death won’t come there. Arcadia tells Miranda to believe her. Miranda asks Naty who hurt Charo. Naty says it was the serpents tongue. Miranda immediately jumps to thinking it was Bertha. Naty tells her no but Bertha saw what happened. Miranda asks for advice on what to do. Naty tells her that the law will arrive in front of Bertha, the law of men and the law of the Almighty. (altisimo) Spooky music and spooky eyes look back at Miranda.

Fernanda talks to Juan about Charo. Charo is stable; she had a bullet behind her shoulder and one to her leg. What's more Charo won’t say who it was and she won’t report anything. She's terrified. Juan asks if Fern suspects anyone. Fern tells him she doesn’t suspect, her soul is screaming that it was Bertha. But it’s her sister! What can she do?!?! It’s her sister! Juan advises that even though it’s her sister Bertha is threatening everyone; everyone is in danger, including the baby. Juan continues saying It’s possible that Bertha went to the house to get the baby but Charo stopped her. Fern keeps asking Why?!

Fabricio sits on the floor of Florencia's bedroom talking to Renata by cell phone about what all he knows. He will go to the office and then to Andreas house to see them. He hangs up the phone to have a green memory of Flor dying. Fab gets up and goes to the bed asking where is Flor and why did God take her? Why is he being punished in this manner? He promises to get ahead for her, him and for their baby. He asks that Florencia, wherever she is, that she help him and that she won’t go far from him ever.

Alejandro talks with Vicente and Fermin in his/Gonzalo’s office. Santiago enters asking that Al not insist he report Bertha. Al tells him he won’t, but at the same time he doesn’t want Santiago to renounce his vocation. Fermin agrees, saying he is taking responsibility for his actions. Years ago he committed an error and if he gets fired he doesn’t care. He has hands to fight and he can get ahead in another way. Al tells Santiago that Fermin has brought the application that Bertha signed with her handwriting in his name from when she opened that account. Santiago tries to find an excuse saying but Fermin has a family! Fermin brushes him off and Vicente pipes up with some legalese. Vicente tells him that they need for him to advise his superiors about the scandal when the story breaks and everything comes to light. Santiago finally agrees. Al promises to never violate Santiago’s rules of confession. Vicente looks off after Al's statement as if he doesn’t believe they will be able to do that.

Miranda wants to know if Naty knows who the man was that attacked her. Naty looks off in her own green memory. She remembers Cesar talking with Sanson as Sanson dressed Cesar's wound from Miranda's gun shot to his shoulder. Naty tells Miranda that it was “Jade Eyes” who attacked her; it was his blood that fell in the house and that is why her father can't gather his footsteps. Miranda wants to know if her father is resting in peace. Naty tells her no, everything began in this place. Here Gonzalo San Llorente forged his disgrace. Only she and Tomasa knew the truth. No one else. Miranda asks her if she remembers what happened "That Night". Naty tells her she remembers like if it was yesterday. But she won't tell Miranda until Bertha, Al and Fernanda are all at the hacienda together. That is the day that Miranda’s father will rest in peace. Miranda whines that Bertha won’t come. Naty tells her to tell Bertha that she has the pistol that Bertha has been looking for.
