Caray, Caray!

Fuego and Elvira are still investigating the child who went missing from the hospital. Elvira is sure the Roble family had something to do with it, she’s even afraid they might start stealing from the house, too. However, she needs proof before going to Esteban, he’s been defending them too much and accusing her of being a snob. She would never!

Enter Monica, who Elvira accuses of helping kidnappers. Monica declares her innocence, but Elvira fires her and promises to do everything in her power to remove her license.

Mauro comes to visit the Roble boys. Salo and Pepa are NOT happy to see him. Mauro chats with Monito, he calls him “Chema”, which the kid forgets is his pretend name.

Alone with Mireya’s boys, Mauro tells them that he is dating her, she even slept with him the other day. Oh, boy…Salo wants to strangle Mauro, neither he nor his brother believe him, but he says from now on he will be part of their life.

Rubio would like to send a message to Lupita from Fermin: “Hasta nunca!” And then he stabs her! She falls to the ground, tries to reach for her phone, but he pushes it away and leaves her to agonize alone in the alley.

Gala gets a call from Jeronimo, but she’s not in the mood for his games, so she cuts the conversation very short. However, he seems certain that she will cave sooner or later.

Kenzo arrives and wants to talk to him, would like to become closer. Jero admits that his own behavior hasn’t been stellar, but his father can’t just demand for a better relationship just because he threw them a party or played video games with them. He was never around and their mother… Kenzo knows Felipa is mooching off Jero, he’s tried to talk to her about it, but she won’t listen. Jero asks his father to man up, do what he needs to do as the head of the family. He’s tired of having to take care of his brother while trying to defend himself from his mother.

This is the first time I actually understand Jeronimo. Being raised by a self-involved, narcissistic mother and a barely-there father can’t be easy.  

Eder and Monito are playing hide and seek. Monito is searching for a place to hide, he eventually goes behind a curtain in Bosco’s room and overhears him on the phone, complaining about the Roble family in the house. Apparently, it’s Pepa’s birthday soon and Bosco is planning something nasty. He calls him to his room, tries to apologize for his behavior and says he has a birthday present. He turns to grab his saber, but Monito comes out of his hiding and bites his arm.

Post lovemaking, Esteban wants to talk honestly with Paz. What about that scar on Monito, he didn’t see anything on his face. Paz says the scar is not that big and it’s on his neck. And why did she change her phone number so suddenly? Because the bank won’t stop calling her. And Vermin? He can go to war for her, but he needs to know the truth.

Paz stands and says she will talk, she just needs a minute. She leaves the bed to grab a robe and says she’s ready to confess, but he needs to listen to everything before giving his opinion.

They get interrupted, because Lupita manages to call her to say that she has been attacked. Paz and Esteban leave in a rush, confession time postponed.

Mauro tells Ginebra that their people in jail told him everything went OK with Rubio. Next item on their agenda: Monito.

Vermin calls Salo to ask if Monito is around. He thinks he found his real parents, wants to take him to them and no, Salo can’t help, in case things go bad.

All the kids get into a fight over Monito biting Bosco, he wants to call the cops. Gala is upset with Salo, etc etc…

Mireya has gotten news about her mother, too; she leaves Nandy with Samara and off she goes.

Salo and Pepa want to accompany Monito to meet his family. Vermin remembers that Mauro asks him to take the child some place and looks conflicted about it but he’s still willing to do it. The boys get a call about Lupita being attacked. They all jump in Vermin’s cab.

Mireya, Paz and Esteban arrive at the hospital, the doctor tells them Lupita was hurt by a knife and several organs have been touched, her condition is critical. They have to get ready for the possibility she won’t make it. Mireya and Paz start sobbing, Esteban asks the doctor if they have all the necessary equipment to take care of her (they do).

And yes, Ginebra is listening to everything through the necklace that Mauro offered Mireya. She’s giddy and proud of Rubio’s work. Mauro agrees, Rubio and Vermin will be their lapdogs. Speaking of, here comes Rubio, of course Gin helped him get out of jail. Congrats on your latest work, she sayss. Mauro gives him some money, reminds him they still have to pay the guards, Ginebra assures him that as long as he does “his job” his family will be safe. But don’t ever dare to go against them.

Samara and Nandy are both crying, they are worried about Lupita. Kenzo arrives and Nandy gives him the bad news. He hugs them both.

Later Nandy asks Sam to put on her PJ’s, and then they will read a story. Kenzo tries to encourage Nandy, who can’t stop crying, remembering how Lupita encouraged her when nobody else would.

Samara has a crisis, she doesn’t want to be inside anymore, she needs to go see Paz and Lupita. Poor child, she’s breaking my heart.

Esteban has called an expert to check on Lupita. Castro, the cop, arrives asking about what happened. Esteban gets angry, will he will be able to do his job this time?

Pepa and Salo arrive at the hospital. They all want to pray for Lupita, they can’t lose her.

During the operation, Lupita is losing a lot of blood. Both Paz and Mireya are ready to donate. Esteban and the boys talk about the Roble women being strong and hardworking. The boys say grandma is the glue that is keeping their family together, she can’t die.

Elvira tells Fuego she almost told the truth to Ginebra, but she didn’t dare. And telling her the truth after they find Samara will be hard, that case is getting too complicated, there is even a doctor involved and that Paz Roble.

Then Elvira asks Fuego why he fell in love with her, he knows all of her secrets and bad sides. Fuego says that when you love someone, you love everything about them. Swoon!

Gala comes to talk to Bosco. She flashes back to one of her binge eating sessions and asks her bother if he’s happy. Neither of them seems so.

Mauro is listening to the Roble, too, finds out Lupita could die, thinks it will be a difficult time for them. Gin couldn’t care less, now she’s waiting on news about Vermin and Monito.

Mauro finds out about the blood donation and thinks they didn’t really have to hurt Lupita. But Ginebra wants to hurt all the family, they’ve been hiding Samara. She reminds Mauro how much they had to endure when they were kids, and they were all alone. No comfort from anyone!

I thought Vermin would go to the hospital, too, but he’s actually taking Monito somewhere. The boy is no fool, realizes something is off. He removes his seatbelt and grabs the hand break; as soon as the car stops, he runs outside. Vermin loses him.

Paz and Mireya are donating blood, trying to stay positive. Paz has a fantasy about her mother showing her daughter, Maria, how to cross the street, but in her fantasy her daughter is Sam. Mireya thinks this is because she loves her like a daughter.

Nandy calls her to say that Samara is not doing well and Paz can hear her cry and ask for Lupita.

She goes to see Sam, who has fallen asleep in the meantime. She had to take the risk to come, she feels their time together will soon be over. Sam wakes up and they hug. Mireya calls and she is sobbing on the phone, making Paz think the worst. But Lupita is not dead, she is going to get better, the doctor who Esteban brought managed to save her life.

As soon as she hangs up, Pepa and Salo ask their mother why did she lie, the abuela is not doing better, she went into arrest, the doctors are working to keep her alive. Mireya couldn’t tell Paz the news over the phone, they need to have faith.

Vermin arrives at the Nicoliti house to tell Mauro and Ginebra that Monito managed to escape.

Ginebra tortures him for a little bit, but then she gets a call from one of her men who tells her Paz is with Samara. Mauro threatens Vermin a bit more, then Gin tells him she wants to go after Paz NOW. But Mauro thinks they should wait, finish them off at the same time.

Samara wants to go back to the Roble house, she wants to go with Paz. Honestly seeing her beg Paz not to leave her alone again is worse than any kind of torture she has been suffering so far. She doesn’t understand because she misses her and abuela Lupita so much. Paz says they will always be together even when apart, it is their magical connection, their destiny. She loves her so much, but she can’t put her in danger. They start singing their song again.
