Caray, Caray!

Robert asks Julieta what's up. She tells him she suddenly has more work and she simply cannot stand Susana.

Blanca is at Daniela's store with Gabriel and Frida. Daniela tries to explain to Blanca their new idea to liven up their marriage and steer clear of "monotony". They do not want to get trapped by "what is expected" of married couples. Blanca thinks that should have thought of that before they got married in the church. Blanca wonders if they are having problems. She explains that sooner or later a marriage settles into a routine. Gabriel, being careful to be polite, makes the point that he supports his wife and adds that it is their relationship and they are going to do it their way even if they seem to be from Mars or whatever. Blanca has to smile.


Everyone is in Blanca's living room. Audifaz tells Blanca and Eugenio about how Pancho is such a great salesman but also about how he had a huge wad of cash on him. Something strange is going on with him. Polita adds to the suspicions by telling how Pablo gave a good quantity of money to a woman at the market. Blanca concludes the he could be involved in money laundering. Ari adds fuel to the fire by telling them how Temo said he could not talk about anything to do with his father. As they eat the sweet bread from the bakery, they keep surmising what could be going on. Frida asks if Pancho is a thief. Blanca is worried because their family are "good people."

Julieta is up working and Robert is wiping dishes in the kitchen and texting Tavo about whether he should tell Julieta about Canuto or not. Tavo tells him to tell her the truth. Robert explains how stressed out Julieta is and his aunt is her boss. Tavo still thinks he has to tell her. Julieta comes in and they talk about how much he is enjoying his course. She goes back to work and he texts Tavo that he just can't deal with this.

Back to the living room where Eugenio is reminiscing about his father when he was growing up, the kids are interested in hearing all about him. Blanca says they always talked about him as being such a gentleman. Ari says they really never heard much about how he died. Eugenio explains that it was somewhere on the highway. Imelda wanted to avoid them suffering so she kept the details to herself. Imelda, who has been listening, comes in and Frida asks her to please tell them all about her great grandfather. Imelda thinks that the dead should be left to rest in peace. She is not going to say anymore. She leaves.

Daniela wakes up and Gabriel is standing looking out of the window. He does not answer her when she asks him what he is doing. She cannot wake him up.

Eugenio is still moaning while he sleeps. Blanca loves her Eugenio but goes to another room to sleep.

We see Imelda sitting on her bed thinking about Canuto as he is in bed thinking about her.

While Robert is driving Dave to school the next day with Blanquita in the car, Julieta calls Robert from work to tell him that they are going to need his mother to watch Blanquita. She hopes she does not mind. Robert assures her there is no problem. In the meantime, Susana comes up to Julieta and personally tells her the meeting is about to start. Julieta explains she is having an issue at home. Susana tells her not to bring her home problems to the office. Julieta is incensed. Robert tells her to count to twenty. His mother will be more than happy to take care of Blanquita. Julieta is silent.

Pancho's kids arrive at school for their first day. Ari invites Temo over to meet the rest of the guys. Julio and Lupita seem to fit right in.

At the apartment building, Blanca sees Pancho in the hall and decides to talk to him, just the two of them. She wants to know who or what he is running from. The Córcega's are good people. She doesn't want problems. She suspects he is running from the mafia. Pancho look up like a kicked dog.

Eugenio tells Robert that he is hurt because Blanca went to go sleep somewhere else and left him all alone in bed. What kind of married couples sleep apart? He is also worried about Imelda who is talking less and less. Yesterday she wouldn't even talk about his dad.

Blanca thinks it would be better that Pancho just told her the truth so they could be prepared. She is afraid he is laundering money. With a defeated look and tears in his eyes, Pancho tells Blanca that he is trying to escape something much worse than the police. He breaks down as he repeats "much worse". Blanca hugs him to comfort him. Pancho hangs on to her for dear life as he continues crying. Robert walks in on them in the hall with Blanquita and looks concerned. He calls to his mother and asks if she still is busy with "this man". Pancho tries to explain but Robert doesn't look interested in hearing an explanation. Blanquita starts to fuss so Blanca goes to take her.

After they get Blanquita calmed down, Blanca tells Robert about Pancho. She feels like the new neighbor is hiding something; a secret of some sort. That is why he hugged her. She hopes Robert understands. It doesn't seem like he does understand but he says he didn't know the guy and they seemed to be so friendly. Blanca laughs and thinks she is seeing her son being jealous. Robert tries to make it clear he isn't jealous as Blanca smiles. She is happy to take care of the baby and she is always happy to see him if only for a couple of minutes. She doesn't want to sound "intense" but some days she sees him and feels like she just found him and is going to lose him all over again. She thinks back to the day in the market when she went into labour and he went missing. Robert promises he will always be there for her and all of his family.

Blanca then asks him what is up. She can tell something is bothering him. Robert tells Blanca that she will have to keep what he is going to tell her a secret. He has to tell her because it involves Eugenio, Imelda and on top of it all, his relationship with Julieta which could be at risk. Canuto is alive in Oaxaca and that is why Imelda has been acting so strangely. Blanca cannot believe they have been visiting an empty tomb for all of these years. Why would have Imelda done such a mean thing? Robert suggests out of anger or spite. . . Imelda told him Canuto cheated on her with another woman and Robert also knows who "the other woman" is. Her business is right next to Imelda's. They know each other professionally but not really who the other one is. It gets worse because their Corcega's are already involved with the other Córcega's. Imelda wants him to stay quiet but Robert doesn't see that as a solution. Canuto is also his patient. Robert feels like his marriage is threatened because Canuto's daughter is Susana Julieta's boss. Julieta hates her and calls her the "monster." Robert is worried about Julieta, who is stressed out already finding out that her enemy is an in-law. Blanca decides they need a hot chocolate and some pan dulce (sweet bread).

Susana is running her meeting about the new catalog. Their goal as a company is that each new catalog be better than the previous one. Julieta's phone vibrates. Casandra has sent her a text. Casandra has a problem in the reception area. It turns out that Casandra advertised the nanny position on social media and the office is teaming with applicants. She tells them they will only be seeing those who already have set up an appointment. That is not what the applicants want to hear. She decides to take them from the reception area and put them in Julieta's office instead. Casandra explains the problem to Julieta. Casandra put the job offer out on Facebook to a limited audience who must have shared it with others. They have thirteen applicants. Julieta only wanted three. Casandra feels like they are casting "Mary Poppins". Julieta takes a moment to think about what they are going to do and two more applicants arrive.

Julieta tries to explain the situation to the applicants in her office. She is only interested in interviewing three nannies. The women are not happy. Julieta and Casandra cannot get them organized. She tries to hide them from Susana in her office but cannot.

Daniela asks Gabriel if he is tired. He says he is. She laughs and teases Gabriel but doesn't tell him exactly what he was doing last night. She insists it is time to work on bills instead.

Back at Blanca's, Blanca thinks that Imelda pretending that Canuto is dead is so out of character for Imelda because of her penchant for "rules". What to to do? Blanca doesn't want to cover up the lie. Robert says it is Imelda's decision. He and Blanca will stick together on this one.

Dr. Vicente, who is Susana's ex, is face-timing with Robert from Africa. They are discussing burn treatments. Robert discusses how his foundation covers all of the patients' expenses. That is why he needs Dr. Vicente's help.

Robert discusses the Imelda/Canuto issue with Tavo. He tells her how his mother doesn't want to be party to the lie. His father and his uncles have a right to know that their father is alive. Robert thinks he has to solve this. Tavo says it is not his place to tell them about it. Yes, he should tell Julieta. That is his place. Tavo says she will find out anyway so he should tell her and ask her to be prudent.

In Susana's office, she tells Julieta she is not being professional by having applicants come to the office. First, it was her baby screaming in the office and now nannies all over the place. When Julieta complains about not having time to interview nannies, Susana tells her that she can do it on the weekend. She also has another bit of information for Julieta. She has decided to push up the catalog production. Julieta cannot believe it. Julieta goes back to her office and tells the crowd that she will only be interviewing the three candidates that have an appointment. Casandra starts to move them out.

Blanca talks with Eugenio in the bakery. She never knew that he missed his dad so much. Eugenio mentions that she left him alone in bed. It is not a marriage with her not there. She tries to reassure him. Love doesn't change just because two people aren't sharing the same bedroom. She tells him that he also has to do his part by going to physical therapy. She left him alone because she had to get some sleep. Eugenio mentions how he feels his father is nearby somehow.He takes out the red toy car and talks about waiting for his father and the car and how his father never came back.

Axel comes to see Robert because he is worried that Canuto's wound is not healing. Robert asks what Axel knows about Canuto's general health. Axel is confused but Robert cannot tell him anything due to privacy laws. He is worried, too, about "their" grandfather. Robert says he hasn't told the family yet about Canuto being alive. They think about the repercussions.

At home, Canuto is getting his luggage ready again to skip town but suddenly doesn't feel so well. He sits down to rest.

Julieta has interviewed Yolanda and asks her to to come back tomorrow on Saturday. Julieta is tired but Susana's office calls. She has to go to a get-together downstairs.

Pancho goes to see Blanca. He loves the smell of the food she is making. He wants to decorate the apartment and to make it really nice for his children. He would like her opinion. She says okay and they can take advantage of the fact that Blanquita is taking a nap. Joke time: Pancho barely launders his socks so how could he launder money.

It is "courtship activity time" Gabriel has to learn how to dance. Daniela and he dance in the shop. He still wants to know what he did last night. She doesn't know if she is is going to tell him.

Blanca goes across the hall to help Pancho organize the apartment while they have a laughing good time. Pancho says that he is good for "proverbs, joke and parody." Unfortunately the mood is quickly shattered when she touches a box and Pancho gets upset and snatches it away from her. He cradles it in his arms. She doesn't understand why. He says the box is his stuff. Blanca is angry. Pancho wants to be her friend then he acts so rudely. He tries to apologize clinging to his box. What does he want anyway? Blanca tells him he is very strange indeed and leaves.

Julieta is at the get-together with Susana. Susana has news for her and the rest of the staff. They are working on the new catalogue tomorrow! on Saturday! When Julieta starts to complain, Susana announces that tomorrow they are going to start working on many of Julieta's concepts. Susana congratulates her and all of her colleagues applaud.

Canuto is hurriedly putting his belongings in his truck to make a run for it. Robert shows up to talk to him. Canuto is pleased he called him grandfather. Did Robert talk to Imelda? Yes, he did and she wants to keep quiet about everything. Robert is really there to try to get Canuto into some intensive treatment possibly experimental treatment for his burn with tilapia (fish) skin. Yes, Canuto knows all about tilapia. He was a fisherman in Baja California. Canuto thanks Robert for worrying about him.

Eugenio gives in and goes to see Axel for his therapy.

Robert is serving dinner to Dave when Julieta arrives complaining she has to work on Saturday. She also has a nanny lined up. Robert doesn't know why they just can't use his mother rather than leaving the children with somebody they do not know. Julieta says she is just trying to find solutions. David is upset.

Pancho has a good time with his kids but then he is depressed so he goes into the dining room where he thinks back on the love he lost looking at a framed photo. We see his wife and his twins when they were babies. Temo evidently knows what happened. He tells Pancho not to blame himself. What happened was not his fault.

Julieta is angry that Robert didn't tell her about who Canuto really was. She is angry that he wasn't honest as they had promised to be with each other. He knew they were related to Susana. She will never forgive him.
