Caray, Caray!

Maria doesn't take the news of the loss of their baby well.  Not at all.

Back at Casa Mendoza, Isa is still being entertained by her new novio.  Kid's got more game than Colosso, Jantos, and Milamores put together!

Gloria arrives at the vecindad just as Rodrigo hops a bus.  I'm not sure she realized that she actually did see him, as opposed to just thinking some random kid looked like him because she missed him so much.

Maria cries.

Justo apparently paid for Amalia's meds in addition to taking her to a specialist.  Instead of just frickin' saying "Thank you and I'll pay you back when I can," she goes on and on about how she shouldn't have let him do it, she shouldn't have accepted it.  But, as Justo says, what's a little expensive medicine between consuegros?  From the waiting area, they hear Maria's cries.

She's blaming herself for not being careful enough.  Amalia blames Jantos for telling her the truth.  You want the truth, you want lies…make up your mind!  The doctor kicks everyone out of the room so she can sedate Maria again. Now she's moved on to denial, mumbling that it's a lie and the baby is alive.

Amalia gives Justo a display of what Jantos has been putting up with all this time, asking him why he didn't lie, damnit!  Jantos tells her to just let it out and let him have all her complaints already.

Concho seems offended at the idea that he could either be or know who Susanito's father is.  He's so disproportionately angry, I'm pretty sure he knows something.

Lalo and Pichi are smudging the bar to get rid of all the negative vibes.  I don't think that's going to get rid of Elvira, but it's worth a try.

Mancia is reading the cards, trying to find out where Irasema is, but she's confused because they're talking about being locked up.  Concho comes a-knocking.

Milamores tells the kid to quit flirting already or he'll be a Mini-Milamores…Milamorecito?...but I think the student has already surpassed the master.  Paloma thinks it's Rodrigo knocking on the door, but instead it's Gloria.

Mancia doesn't want to talk to Concho, but he insists.  He tells her about the picture of them together.  Concho is so loud, Susanito has no trouble overhearing as he approaches the door to the apartment.  Concho demands to know if Susanito is his after that one drunken night they spent together.  I don't know if I'm more squicked out at the thought of Mancia getting it on with Concho or Concho getting it on with Mancia.  Though from the looks of that picture, they were both pretty hot back in the day.

Amalia and Jantos are having a shouting match in the waiting room.  And they're not getting kicked out why?  Jantos demands his fair share of the pity for having lost a child.  Finally the doctor comes out to tell them both to behave.  She's worried that Maria's not going to have a good recovery.  "Are you happy now?" Amalia tells Jantos whatever happens will be all his fault!

Gloria gets the news that Rodrigo is living with Colosso.  Yeah, they're all a bit behind on the news.  Milamores tells her Oscar's really proud of his kid.  Liar!

Colosso gets home and gets pissed because he assumes Rodrigo went to Jantos' house.

Roddy is hitchhiking and meets a nice couple who are also on their way to Monterrey.  Or maybe they're a pair of serial killers, who knows.

Justo tells Jantos to calm down.  Just to clarify JUSTO, who just saw AMALIA-- who has a medical condition that worsens with stress--scream a bunch of utterly unfair BS at his son, told JANTOS to calm down.  Jantos agrees with Amalia that whatever happens is all his fault.  Justo reminds him that his mother always used to say "Time is the only thing capable of understanding and helping a great love."  Jantos doesn't think he has time.  He expects to be caught any time now and he's tired of being in limbo.

Derecho and Curtis summoned OG to tell him about his cousin's murder.  For whatever reason, Curtis lets slip the name of the bar and OG connects it with Maria, since Ruben told him that she sings there.

Mancia calls Concho on his lies--he apparently made a lot of promises he didn't keep.  He says it's just what guys do.  She refuses to tell him if Susanito's his son or not.  Susanito bursts in and says it's time for her to answer the question.

Ana gets a drunken Siete Mares back to her place, but he won't let go of her long enough for her to make him coffee.

Mancia tells Susanito that Concho is, indeed, his daddy.  Poor guy!  That means he's related to Elvira!  As if he wasn't feeling crappy enough already!

OG tells Derecho and Curtis that he doesn't know why Bruno would have gone to the bar, as the only one of them who liked rancheras was Santos.  He denies recognizing any of the names on a list they show him.  Although, Derecho thinks OG was lying and he's starting to think the bar had some role in the money laundering.

Milamores is checking out the stage with Jalisquito.  He's sniffing at the steps and about to scrape at them when Mirna comes in screeching about there being a kid in the bar.  Mirna does her best to keep Milamores from scraping at the steps and she finally wears him down enough to leave with the kid, without collecting his evidence, though he insists that accidents can be provoked.

Concho screams at Mancia that she's a liar and just trying to get money out of him.  Susanito won't have him talking to his mother like that!  Mancia insists she would have told him sooner, but the day she went to tell him, he was so rude and nasty to her he made her feel like the ugliest woman in the world.  "Because you are!  Look in a mirror!"  Dude must have a death wish to talk that way right in front of Susanito!  Susanito tells him to get the hell out.

Siete Mares may not be drowning in drink at the moment, but he's drowning in his sorrows. And possibly going through some sort of withdrawal.  He just wants to die already.

Jantos goes to look at the babies in the nursery.  Cause he wasn't feeling crappy enough already.

Maria comes out of the sedation enough to start crying about the baby.  She freaks out the nurse, rips out her IV, ditches all the wires, and walks out of her room.

Gee, Colosso was so brokenhearted about his kid leaving that he's sitting at the kitchen table having a meal.  Gloria knocks on the door, demanding to know where her son is.

Rodrigo notices that the road they're on doesn't go to Monterrey and asks the nice couple to let him out, but they refuse…cause they're ax murderers, I knew it!  The car doesn't have childproof locks, but the driver grabs his wrist in an effort to keep him from throwing himself out of the car.  Rodrigo gets free and lies on the side of the road, potentially unconscious, as the lady ax murderer tells the driver they can't afford to lose the kid.  Creeps!

Colosso, the giant overgrown child that he is, tells Gloria he lost their kid because "Well, he's always defending the pochito!"  For fuck's sake, Oscar!  Are you even listening to yourself?!  Your kid's lying on the side of the highway somewhere on the way to NOT Monterrey and THAT'S your excuse?  Gloria tells him if anything happens to her kid, she'll rip his cojones off and feed them to his chicken.  OK, no, she says "You'll meet a Gloria you've never met before!"  But I'm sure that's what she meant.  She gives him the death glare on her way out the door.

The ax murderers start to back their SUV up, but a couple of guys in a jeep have already seen Rodrigo and stopped to render aid.  Or not.  They argue about whether they should help him, considering it looked like he was thrown out of the SUV. In the meantime, Rodrigo just lies there.

Amalia defends her bad treatment of Jantos to Justo.  Justo manages to calm her down a tiny bit.  The doctor tells Amalia that Maria forced Jantos to tell her the truth and he was brave to do it.  The nurse comes running in to get the doctor, who tells Amalia and Justo to wait for her, please!

Maria goes to look at the babies in the nursery.  Cause she wasn't feeling crappy enough already.  She goes in and tries to claim a random pink bundle as her own.  A nice nurse comes in and tells her none of those kids is hers and she needs to get out of the nursery.  Said nurse then gets called away before she can get Maria farther away from the bundles.  Maria shuffles down the hallway and cries.  Because this show doesn't have us all feeling crappy enough already.

Jantos hears Maria crying that she wants her baby.  She can't focus on his face as he tells her to calm down.  She won't let him touch her and tells him to get away from her.  She never wants to see him again.  She tells him it's his fault she lost the baby because he wouldn't quit fighting even when he was on the verge of getting arrested.  The doctor, 2 nurses, Amalia, and Justo all come running in as Jantos explains that she's blaming him for what happened.  Maria passes out and Jantos carries her back to her room as the doctor explains to Amalia that Maria is, perfectly normally, being driven crazy by her grief.

Jantos gets her back into bed and the nurses re-attach everything.  This gives him a minute to reflect on her accusations.  Cause he wasn't feeling crappy enough already.

Susanito tells his mom he believes her.  He wants to know why she didn't tell him. He's not happy to find out he was the product of a drunken one-night-stand.

Amalia is worried about Maria going permanently insane.  The doctor says she's only seen one woman go completely insane.  So, of course, Amalia thinks Maria will be the second one.

Susanito would like some alone time, but his mom would like a chance to explain.  For ONCE she listens to him and leaves him alone to trash her living room in peace.

The doctor tells Amalia and Justo that Maria is going into a comatose state because she can't handle the news.  It could be hours, days, weeks, or months.  Just goes back to telling Amalia to please calm the hell down.  Amalia thinks that since Maria was also blaming Jantos, that's proof positive that it is his fault.  She even invokes his real name.

Jantos swears to the doctor that it wasn't his fault.  She says Maria may be blaming him because he's a reminder.  Best case scenario, it'll only be temporary.  But worst case, it's OVER.  Seriously?  And following that Vicente croons "Que Bonito Amor" on the way to a commercial break?  Classy.

Concho finds Mirna in his office and starts to physically throw her out, but Evilra blocks him.  That's right, I said Evilra.  She swears if he gets rid of Mirna, he'll never see her again.  Sounds like a good deal to me!

Lourdes is behind the bar when a woman calls to hire a serenata for a bachelorette party.  And the handsomer the men, the better.  Lourdes immediately thinks of Milamores.

Concho is willing to get rid of both Mirna and Evilra, but Evilra turns on the waterworks "My mommy doesn't love me and neither do you!"  Oh, honey, it's a much, much longer list than that!  Concho says he won't let her blackmail him emotionally. He thinks Mirna must have some dirt on Evilra and Evilra calls his bluff, saying they'll both go.  She opens the door to find Lourdes on the other side, alarmed that Evilra is looking so upset.  Evilra tells her sad, sad tale to mommy as Mirna looks triumphant and Concho looks like he's got his cojones in a vise.

Jantos prays not to lose Maria's love.

Maria takes off all the medical equipment AGAIN and stumbles out of her room AGAIN.

Jantos begs that if it's his destiny to lose Maria then he'd like to die first.  He's lost his mother, his child…and if he's losing Maria then he has nothing to live for.

Maria wanders out to the parking lot.  This clinic has crappy security!

Jantos prays.

Maria seems to be walking home.

The nurse finally comes in and realizes Maria is gone.

Justo is still trying to argue Amalia down.  Jantos comes into the waiting room, insisting on seeing Maria. He feels a disturbance in The Force. He refuses to leave.  Justo joins in on Amalia's chorus, telling him that it's hurting Maria more for him to be there.  Amalia begs him to leave until Maria is more stable. Jantos agrees.  Amalia convinces Justo to go be with Jantos, but before either of them can leave, the nurse comes in to announce that Maria is gone.

Tomorrow: Maria wanders the streets in a rainstorm and wanders into traffic.
