Previously on "The Cleaning Lady"...

[GRUNTS] I'm just a cleaning lady.

Let me clean it for you.

You did a good job. I want you on call.

Everything I've done
I've done for my son.

Luca's medications are stuck in Mexico.

There's an opportunity here,
and it can benefit both of us.

- [g*nf*re]
- Who are these men?!

It's Sin Cara. So we need
to keep our eyes open.

You really trust him, don't you?

He always shows up when I need him.

Do you love her?

Luca's getting sicker.

It is illegal to administer this drug!

MAN: You are under arrest.

Dr. De La Rosa is an active
asset in a Federal case,

- so she has to be released to me.
- What about Fiona?

If you don't have clearance
on her, she's coming with us.

Do you really trust
the FBI to protect you?

[g*nf*re]

You broke protocols. And now he's dead.

The deal with the FBI fell apart.

She got Mom deported!

You need to help me get her back.

You need to fix this!

What you're asking for is not easy.

And Nadia can't find out about this.

On our next shipment,
I'm bringing someone back.

to bring medication

across the border for my clinic.

Arman has nothing to do with this.

How the hell are you here?

Hmm?

I-I had to.

I-I mean, look at this!

Mom, I'm never gonna let
anyone hurt you guys again.

No, no, no, no. You can't be here.

How did you get these, huh?

- I-I found them in your closet.
- What?!

- Mom, it's okay.
- Yeah.

I did something called
voluntary departure.

No! It's not okay.

I mean, you know what it took
for me to get you to the U.S.

I mean, w-what if we
can't get you back?

- We'll figure it out.
- How?

Thony hasn't even figured
out how to get me back.

Well, that's why I'm here.

'Cause whatever crazy idea
Auntie T comes up with,

I'm going with you.

I...

Mom, I'm not gonna let you do it alone.

I can't.

I just... I can't lose you.

You need to know you're only
alive because of your silence,

and if you ever speak a word about us,

that will no longer be the case.

Tell us how you met Armando
and why you protect him

even at risk to yourself.

He saved my life.

- And he saved my son.
- Why?

B-Because he wanted to help me.

Hm. How long have you been together?

We're... We're not exactly together.

There's more to it
than you're letting on.

I need to know he's
okay. Do you have him?

We'll ask the questions today.

If you don't, please help me find him.

He could be in danger.

If he means anything to you.

We'll put our best people on it.

How can I trust you
when it was your people

who att*cked us in the desert?

They didn't understand

how important Armando is to me.

You didn't know it was Arman?

He doesn't know that you're Sin Cara.

You're the one his father
cut ties with, right?

We had a... painful
separation with our brother.

I never held that
against my sweet nephew.

But I always hoped

I'd have the chance to help him one day.

So you're gonna find
him. Well, you have this.

Clearly, you're important to my Sobrino.

And I assure you...

he'll be protected.

Thank you, ma'am.

Please. Call me... Ramona.

Ooh! Okay. You need a bowl.

Okay? And that... that...
You're doing great,

Let's put this back in

Who's that, Mommy?

You don't move. Stop it.

I'm here for Thony De La Rosa.

Yeah, it's me.

And is this your son, Luca?

Uh, what is this about?

My name is Susan Redman.

I'm your new caseworker from
Child Protective Services.

I wasn't aware we had a caseworker.

Well, after your arrest
at Nevada General,

Luca was put in our care.

Yeah, but all the charges got dropped.

I-I understand, but
he's still in our system.

And according to his file, he
missed a mandated medical exam.

Uh, no one told me about this.

Oh, no, it would have been

I'm afraid Luca's gonna
have to come with me.
