Caray, Caray!

Freed from the church, Santos tells the Inspector that he was hit on the head and doesn't remember anything that happened in the ruined church. The Inspector doesn't believe him.

DB is running along the river where she starts to cry and has flashbacks to everything that happened. She tells herself that it's finally over.

DB gets back to El Miedo where she continues to cry. She says that she doesn't know why she is so sad. She has flashbacks of Eustaquia, Melquíades and Lorenzo. Juan Primito comes in and DB hugs him and cries.

DB has JP get her money out of the wall.

Santos tells Antonio what happened in the church. He says that he understands DB now and believes she was justified in what she did. He says that he feels sorry for her and wants to help her. This exchange: what DB did was horrible but she had a right to avenge what was done to her and she had guts to do what she did - we will call 'the conversation.'

Both Santos and Marisela head for El Miedo.

DB tells JP not to tell anyone where she went.

The Inspector sends men to search for DB and tells them to shoot her if she doesn't surrender.

Melesio and all the terneras except Genoveva have 'the conversation.' Marisela arrives and says that she is sad that she can't find DB to help her.

Pajarote, María Nieves and Cósme are chatting about what happened in the church and noting that Santos seems to want to protect DB when she appears looking for Santos. The police are arriving and the ternera men help her hide. Pajarote tells DB that they are helping DB because Santos is helping her.

The ternera men take DB to the river but there are men with dogs there. She jumps into the river. When the one-eyed alligator comes after her, Pajarote and MN kill it with Marisela, Santos, Antonio, Andrés, Genoveva and Altagracia watching.

DB escapes across the river but she starts to cry again. Melquíades' voice tells her to get up and find a hiding place.

Santos and Marisela find DB's horse with all her money.

All the guys celebrate the death of the one-eyed alligator and express admiration for DB's bravery in jumping into the alligator infested river. They think that DB is gone for good. They leave. Genoveva tells Santos that Marisela went to church to pray for her mother.

It turns out that having escaped from the ruined church in town, DB has returned to town and is hiding in the confessional in the active church.

Father Pernia and Genoveva have 'the conversation.' He tells Marisela to pray for her mother. Santos shows up. He and Marisela have 'the conversation.' DB is listening.
