04x17 - Chapter Eighty-One

Post by bunniefuu »

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Ah, friends, our Jane has been

through quite a telenovela--

but at long last,
she fell in love

with her baby-by-accidental-
insemination daddy, Rafael.

Even more romantic... You are on a roll
with your writing.

Let's bet on
yourdream now.
Mine will come.

Unfortunately,
things weren't as great

with her mother, Xiomara.

See, she had cancer,

but Rogelio was there for her.

And speaking of power couples,

we have Petra and Jane Ramos,
aka J.R.

You'll recall
they met because...

well, this happened.

So Petra needed a good lawyer.

Unfortunately, J.R. was working against her...

until she was convinced
of Petra's innocence,

and then she came clean.

And Petra?

Well, she came, too--
multiple times.

But then her crazy mother
came back to town.

Petra k*lled Anezka...
in cold blood.

So J.R. sacrificed her career.

I came clean to the D.A.,
and your case was dismissed,

with prejudice.

I know. Dramatic, right?

Well, imagine this.

Abuela passed her United States citizenship test!

And speaking
of a new American phenomenon,

River Fields agreed to star
with Rogelio in a remake

ofThe Passions of Santos.

Unfortunately, they had
some creative differences.

The amnesia.

That is a key plot twist.

But Xo convinced River
to do the show Rogelio's way,

like a real telenovela.

Oh, the scary music means
they're getting ready

for the classic
Friday night cliffhanger.

What I know is going
to change your life forever.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Which this is, after all.

A small surprise.

Today our story begins

with Alba a mere and a half years old.

It should be noted
that at years old,

Alba's passions included...

[fireworks explode]

...and fireworks.

And in that moment,
Alba made a decision.

[laughs]

[fireworks exploding]

[whispering in Spanish] And thus began

a tradition
for the Villanueva family.

It's the Fourth of July.

Why are they eating hot dogs?

[laughs]

[fireworks exploding][screams]

Turn them off!

Right this minute!

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Yeah. So ever since then,

Jane preferred to be on
the planning end of surprises.

You don't think
she knows, do you?

No. As an actor, I can
tell when someone's acting,

and I can assure you your
abuelahas not a clue.

I can't believe
she's gonna be a citizen.

My whole life I had this fear
in the back of my head.

I know. Me, too.

I can't wait to see
the look on her face

when she walks in
after the ceremony

and sees everyone
she loves

waiting to celebrate her.
[squeals]

[expl*si*n]



Okay, our numbers.

So far, we have RSVPs.

Does that
include me?

Make... that , Jane,

since, you know,
River is part of the family...

this week.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Ah, yes.

Rogelio and River were about
to sh**t their pilot together.

So River wanted them
to spend time together,

so they would seem like
a believable married couple

on-screen. Thank you all

so much for putting up
with having

a really famous person
in your home.

Daniel Day-Lewis and I

lived together
before sh**ting our film.

But with everything
that Xo is going through,

I didn't want
to intrude.

And yet...
We're happy
you're here.

So did you decide no on Jorge?

Yeah. I-I didn't invite him.

But I got to say,
I'm still torn.

He and Abuela
are friends again.

Yeah, but she tried
to get back together with him,

and he turned her down--
no negativity on her day.

A hundred percent
agree.

Lose Jorge.

No, Abla.

I wasn't talking; you were.

No, Abla is coming.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Oh. She meansAlba.

Alba-a-a...
Mm.

Abuela, we were
just saying,

since your citizenship
swearing-in ceremony's at : ,

I made us reservations
for dinner at : ,

so we can go home first,

relax...

Oh, it's just...
it's just a list of things

I need to bring
to Rafael's open house.

I'm going to have him set up
things at the new property.

I got my
Kate Middleton wave ready.

You're
too loose.

Kate's wave is more like this.

Like your fingers
are sewn together, but gently.

Oh, okay. Thanks.

Thanks.
[clears throat]

Bye.
[forced chuckle]



[chuckles]:
I'll just be on my way.

How's that?
RAFAEL:
It's perfect.

But the open house
is this way.

[chuckling]:
That's the building.

So, what do you think?

The neighborhood is great.

The building has tons
of curb appeal.

Look at you with the lingo.

Hey, if I'm gonna help out,
I got to be on point, right?

[chuckles]

Thanks again. I know it's
supposed to be a writing day.

No, no. This is
a good distraction.

I needed some distance
from that outline.

Something's not right,
but I can't put my finger on it.

[ringtone plays]

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: You can't
ignore Rose forever, Rafael.

Is that her again?

She wants to know
where Luisa is.

Which I am not
going to tell her.

So we have nothing
to talk about.

Come on, let's go inside.

Oh, wow.
I love it so much.

The light,

the layout.

Great price point
for the school district.

When will your clients be here?

They're here.

We're the client.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Surprise!

We lost the other place.

But this one comes on
the market next week,

and it's in Mateo's
school district, and it's

a great price point,
like you said...

[chuckling]

[gasps, laughs]

JANE: Rafael found the
most amazing apartment,

and we signed our lease--
we're moving in together
next week!

That's great, guys.
Congratulations.

Something wrong?

No.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Way
to rain on their parade, Abla.

Well, we aren't
getting married.

But still, you're happy
for us, right?

JANE:
Okay.

I have to get ready
for work.
Yeah.

[door closes]

I really wish
you hadn't said that.

The big deal is

I was actually planning
on proposing.

You were?

I get to plan a wedding?!Shh...

Yes. But I
was hoping

to get your blessing first.

All of yours.

I want to do it right this time.

Of course you have my blessing.

Mine, too.

I've gotten over
my ambivalence for you.

I meant, these
past months,

Jane has really
seemed happy again.

What more could
a father want?

Alba,

I know we've had
a rocky minute...

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Oh, my God, a proposal!

I'm so excited!

I hope Jane's ready for this.

Okay. Well,
maybe I'll just give her

a minute to get ready for this.

[Jane tapping keyboard]

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
OMG.

Is he gonna propose right now?

Turn around.

Turn around! Hey, you.

Here we go.

How's writing going?

Oh. Ugh. There's officially
something wrong

with my outline--
I'm hoping

I can figure it out
tonight.Tonight?

But I'm making you dinner
tonight.

Remember?Oh, no. I forgot to tell you
the sitter canceled.

Rain check?

No rain checks.
This could be the proposal.

Sure.

Or, uh, maybe Alba
could pinch-hit.

It's bingo night.

Bright side,
I can use

the time to do
as much writing as I can

before Abuela's ceremony

[whispers]:
and, uh, party.

Right.

No problem.

I will let you
get back to it, then.

That's it?
He's giving up?

Raf?

Thank you.
I know it's not dinner for two,

but the way you support
my writing is really romantic.

Also feeling romantic...

Yes, friends,

love is in the air.

Or is it the draft
from the window?

I told you, babe, it's not safe
to leave the windows open.

The kids.

Then why don't you get screens

or bars or something?Because
they're ugly.

You're the only person
who actually likes the humidity.

[sighs] I should
get up, anyway.

I have a busy day.

It's fine, Petra.

You're allowed
to talk about work.

I have a lead

on a paralegal situation.

Really? You're gonna go
from being a lawyer

to being a paralegal?

What are my options?

I'm disbarred
and I have to pay the bills.

Well, do you want
to move in here?

Uh, I just... I mean,
as a reprieve,

until you figure work out.

No.
Oh.

Okay. I just want to help.

It seemed like a...
like a p-practical solution.

That's why I don't
want to do it.

[sighs]: Look... I didn't
expect to feel like this

about you.

But here we are.

And I'm in love with you.You are?

I knew it wasn't a draft
from the window. Yes.

So I don't want to do
anything out of convenience

or... obligation or guilt.

I only want to move in

if we're both
on the same page emotionally.

And if you're
not there yet,

I'm willing to wait.

[phone chimes]Oh, my God.

What?My friend from the DA's
office just texted.

Krishna just turned herself in.

JANE:
The plot twist isn't landing

because it wasn't
set up properly.[phone chimes]

I tried to layer in
exposition...

Hold on.
I...

Petra just texted me.

Krishna turned herself in.

You're kidding. Out of the blue?

You remember, Abuela,
she was Petra's assistant.

The one who tried
to frame Petra for m*rder

and then disappeared
out the window.

Yeah, it's pretty surprising.
You were saying?

Just that the exposition helped,
but it didn't solve the problem.

Hm.
I think I have to
go further back.

Maybe even to
the beginning.

Hm?

What happened to bingo?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Raf told
her he's gonna propose!

Oh, that's too bad, I'm sorry.
But I'm writing.

Um... W-W-What party
Jorge is throwing?

Oh, wow.

Incredibly, incredibly sweet.

You got to cancel that party.

It's more of a toast.

Right. Um, here's the thing,

we're planning
a surprise party for her

right after the ceremony.

Oh, I'm sorry, I had no idea.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Awkward.

I know, a-and that's my fault.

We didn't invite you

because we weren't sure
where you two stood.

After the proposal,

and her turning you down twice
and you rejecting her...

Thanks for the recap.LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Right?

Everybody thinks they can do
your job for you.

Sorry.

I'll cancel the toast,
say I got the flu.

That always works.

Jane?
Yes. S-Sorry.

Anyway...

Will you come
to my abuela's party?

I know that she would love
to have you there.

Absolutely. Can I bring
some refreshments?

Water, with lemon.

FYI, I prefer lime
and sparkling.

As my on-screen husband,

you really should
know that about me.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Poor Rogelio.

He's drowning in this River.

Hey, hey. I have
dress options.

What do you think?The gold.

You will take Rafael's
breath away tonight.

Rafael's? No, these dresses
are for my mom.

Mm-hmm.

For my Mom's citizenship
party, River.

I'm not up
for shopping.

[laughing]:
Right, of course.

For the party
for "Abla."

What else could
they be for?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: River
so needs to stop "habla-ing."

Okay, what's going on?

First Abuela comes in hard
with the offer to babysit,

now you're telling me to dress
up for my dinner tonight--

Oh, my God. Is Rafael proposing?
Is that what this is about?

Nah, no way.No.
Definitely not.

Phew. I am so
not ready for that.

Really? You're not?

Ah-ha! He is proposing,
isn't he?

Yes.

We were really trying
to keep it a surprise.

I'm so sorry.

You should be...It's fine.

It's totally fine.

I don't like
surprises, remember?

This is good.
I can get a manicure,

be Instagram ready.

Wait, does that mean
you're saying yes?

I love him so much.

Yeah, he is my future.
Who else could it be?

Oh, congratulations.

[squeals]

I saw a picture of that
hottie. Well done.

Wow. Busy.Cruise ship.

We'll help check
people in.

Could you move over a little
and get the step stool, Sharon?

Anna's in a mood,
and Ellie's upset

'cause she wanted
tuna tartare not tuna fish,

which I didn't have at
my apartment, obviously.

Petra, you there?

Hm? Yeah.

What's going on?
Nothing.

JR told me she loves me.

Whoa.
I know.

Well, do you love her?

I think I do.

Okay, so what's the problem?

I'm just waiting for
the other shoe to drop

because it always does.

My advice?
Let yourself be happy.

You deserve it.

Thank you.

We've come a long way, huh?

Yeah, we have.

MAN:
Go see Sin Rostro now.

ROSE:
You're a hard one

to get ahold of.

What do you want?

I have information for you.

In exchange, I'd love
to know where Luisa is.

I'm not telling you.

And whoever my parents are,
I don't care.

I think you'll change your mind

when you hear
what I have to say.

JANE:
Oh, no.

Abuela, I'm sorry that Jorge
cancelled your party.

Toast, right.

He's sick? Aw, wow,
what a bummer.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Nice acting, Jane.

Rogelio would be proud.

Listen, I just got to Rafael's.

Yeah, I'll call you after.
Love you, too.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: All right,
now let's get engaged.

Did I get the time wrong?

[groans] No.

Sorry, I just lost track...

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
That can't be good.

Is everything okay?

You know what,
this isn't a good time.

You should go.

Rafael, why? What's going on?

Please, Jane...Whatever it is,

you can tell me.
Stop!

I need you to leave.

Please, go.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: So,
friends, with a broken heart,

Jane went to do something she's done a hundred times before...

...which is exactly why she didn't want to do it again.

Open the door.

What are you doing?

I'm not leaving.

I'm not in a good place, Jane.

Obviously, and you don't have
to talk to me, but I'm staying

because we're in
a relationship,

and people in relationships
don't leave.

PETRA:
I want you here.

Not because I feel
guilty or obligated,

but because...

I love you, too.

Which is scary because it's
so fast, but here's the thing,

I've never felt
about anyone

the way I feel
when I'm with you,

and I think I just
quoted Dirty Dancing,

but that's the kind
of cheesy thing you make me do.

I happen to love
Dirty Dancing.

And okay,

I'm moving in.

Good.

Now, let's talk about
the elephant in the room.

I really don't want to go
to Jane's party tomorrow.

[laughs]Can I just stay
with the twins?

Of course.

And now...

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Oh.

Looks like Petra's
got "Hungry Eyes."

...let's go to bed.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Aw.

Nobody puts Jane in the corner.

I'll stop.

You can tell me anything.
I want you to know that.

[sighs]

I went to see Rose.

What?

So she would leave me alone.

Did she say something
about your parents?

Whoever they are,
you can tell me.

Hey.

How did you sleep?

Okay.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Oh, maybe
he's finally ready to talk.

So...

...should we go over the plan

for after your
grandmother's ceremony?

I say something came up
with Petra, right?

That I got to pick up the girls?

Right.

Then you take the car.

My mom already said she has
a doctor's appointment.

Which means Abuela, Mateo, and I
will have to take the bus,

giving you extra
minutes to set up.

Great, and River's there
now with the caterers.

[loud groan]

Stop. She's helping.
She's also getting the cake.

Is she getting me the last week
of my life back?

Come on, Rogelio,
don't be so hard on her.

I've gotten to know
River a little,

and I think she's
just lonely.

She's been divorced four times,
she's in a new city.

I think she probably just likes
spending time with our family.

JANE:
Shh, the ceremony is starting.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Well,
it is a pretty great family.

[exhales]

ALL: I will support
and defend the Constitution,

and laws of the United States
of America.

That I will bear true faith
and allegiance to the same.

[laughs]

[whoops]

OFFICIANT:
Congratulations.

You are now officially
Americans.

[cheering, applause]Yeah, Abuela!

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Friends,

meet one of my favorite
United States citizens.

ROGELIO:
"Congratulations, Abla"?

Yeah, I thought it would
be nice to personalize it.

It wouldbe nice,
if that was her name.

No. But her name is "Alba."

"Alba."

Why is that so hard
for you to remember?

"Alba!"

[exhales]
Ooh.

Honestly, I don't know
how you put up with him.

Excuse me?

Your husband just went from zero
to a hundred over a cake.

Okay, I don't get you.

You say you want to get to know
Rogelio better for the role,

but if you think that
was about a cake,

you don't know
him at all.

Rogelio went to
because he wants

his mother-in-law's
party to be perfect,

because he knows how
much today means to her.

That's the kind of guy he is.

The guy who would give anything,
or do anything, for his family.

And if you haven't
observed that yet,

you've failed at your mission.

JANE:
Here we go.

Shouldn't be too long a wait
for our transfer.

Stop complaining, Abuela.

America doesn't have princesses.

[sighs]

What?
Mm-hmm.

Aw, that is so sweet
of you, Abuela,

but I'm sure Jorge's
feeling better.

He-he just, he seems
like a hearty guy.

So, let's go, come on.

You can be there for him later.

Let's get on the bus.

Abuela, please get on the bus.

I promise I'll explain later.

We are throwing you
a surprise party.

Okay, and Jorge
is not sick,

he's probably at the house,
waiting for you.

Yes, a surprise party.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Well,

more like a party party now.

[both shout]

What...? Mateo!
Mateo!

Well, at least Mateo's not gonna be late for Alba's party.

Stop! Stop the bus!
Mateo, I'm coming!

Please! No, wait!

[speaking indistinctly]

Oh...

Oh, thank God.

Thank God.

JANE:
I can't believe it happened.

It's my fault.

RAFAEL [over phone]:
Everyone is okay.

It's over.


Are youokay?

Sorry, yeah.

It just brought me right back

to when he was born,
when Rose kidnapped him,

when he just... was gone.

[crying]

Anyway, it's...

This wasn't that.

He's fine, everyone's fine.

I'll see you soon.

Right.

I'm actually gonna be
a little late to the party.

Why?

I just have something to do.

I'll see you later.

We are definitely not
in proposal territory.

Rose had told him something
about his birth parents,

and he went
to a dark place, and...

And that woman
is just so evil, Abuela.

I can't believe
she's back in our lives.

Still. He has to talk to me.

What can be so horrible
about his parents

that he can't tell me?

Abuela! Ew![laughs]

That is so gross,
why would you even say that?

Can you stop laughing?

St...[both laugh]

Okay, this is our stop.Ah.

Better get your game face on.

ALL:
Surprise!

[shouts]

[applause]

Ah!
[laughs]

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Wow,
now I know who the real actor

in this family is.

Oh...[applause]

Yeah, Alba's totally faking it.

She % knew.

[laughs] Should we tell Mommy
what we've been up to?

A fashion show!A fashion show!

[laughs]

Aw, I wish I was there.

Me, too.

Come home soon.Mm-hmm.

[high heel snaps]

Oops. Looks like
there might have been

a wardrobe malfunction.

Enjoy the rest of your party.

RIVER:
This is a great party.

Everything looks perfect.

What?

I'm just surprised.

You're actually being... nice.

Okay, maybe I deserve that.

[clears throat]

Look, I don't have a super
tight-knit family like this,

so I didn't realize
how important

today was to you.

Well, my family means
everything to me.

There's nothing
I wouldn't do for them.

Yes, I can see that.

And I really like that
about you.

And I know what kind

of co-president
you're going to make:

kind, considerate

and loyal to your country
at all costs.

Thank you, Madam President.

[door closes]

Did you get everything done
that you needed to get done?

Yes.

[glass clinking]Wha...

Thank you, everyone, for coming.

In English, in honor of today,

I am overwhelmed by the love
and support in this room.

[cheering, applause]

[whoops]

As I studied
for my citizenship exam,

I learned about the motto
of the United States:

E pluribus unum.

"Out of many, one."

It is said that it originated

by the famous
Roman writer Cicero,

about family and friends:

"When each person loves
the other as much as herself,

it makes one out of many."

And as I look around this room,
I understand what he meant.

"Out of many, one."

You are all part of my journey.

I spent so many years

worrying about being separated

from all of you.

And I am so grateful

that I will never have
to worry about that again.

[applause]

[exhales]

Jorge.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Oh,
my goodness, friends, please

tell me Jorge isn't Alba's long lost brother.

Or that.

Is everything okay, Abuela?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Surprise!

Yes, yes, Ma.You're marrying Jorge?

I think that's
a beautiful thing.

But I also think
you still love him,

so I just want to make sure
that you are okay doing this.

Then it's settled.

Let's have a wedding.

Oh...

Thank you, now I got the tone.

Got it.

I'll dig up
the ceremony template,

we'll leave the big guy
out of it.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Don't worry.

You'll figure it out, girl.

Geez, this is like a walk

through Jane's
manuscript graveyard.

Hmm. Yeah.

JANE:
We are gathered here today

to celebrate one
of life's greatest moments,

the joining of two hearts,

Alba Gloriana Villanueva

and Jorge Antonio Garcia,

and to add our best wishes

to the words which shall unite
this couple in marriage.

Do you, Jorge, take Alba

to be your lawfully wedded wife,

to have and to hold
from this day forward,

for better or worse,
for richer or poorer,

in sickness and in health,

for as long
as you both shall live?

I do.

Do you, Alba,

take Jorge...

to be your
lawfully wedded husband...

[crying]:
...to have and to hold

from this day forward,

for better or worse,
for richer or poorer,

in sickness and health, for
as long as you both shall live?

I do.

It's not about you,
it's about me.

[Jane clears throat]

By the limited power
vested in me--

by the Internet, not by God--

I now pronounce you

husband and wife.

You may kiss
the bride.



LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Well...
thank God Alba can't see me.

[crying]:
I'm a mess.

[others whooping]

[laughing]WOMAN: Yeah!

[whooping]

Can we talk outside?

JANE:
I just need you to know,

whatever Rose said,
it doesn't matter.

I love you unconditionally,

for better or worse,
for richer or poorer,

no matter who
your parents are.

U-Unless you're my brother.

What?That would be, like,
a telenovela thing.

I am definitely
not your brother.

Okay, good.

So whatever it is,
we'll deal with it,

together.

Because I love you.

And... you're it for me,

forever.



Mmm...

[fireworks explode]

Hmm?
[laughs]

My dad arranged fireworks.

I have to do something.

Meet me at my place
after the party, okay?

Mm-hmm.

[fireworks explode]

[fireworks exploding,
people gasping]

[fireworks continue][ooh'ing and ah'ing]

ALBA: "When each person
loves the other

"as much as herself,

"it makes one

out of many."

You are all part of my journey.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Oh, wow.

That's the look
of a Jane lightbulb moment,

if I ever saw one.

Her mother-daughter novel.

Pink means pregnant.

But I've never had sex!

Where did you get
your degree from,

the University
of Dumb-Ass?

My daughter said that she
is a freakin' virgin,

so do another damn test!

[groaning,
sniffling]Look, five more minutes of pain

for a lifetime of happiness.

Ah, her unfinished work
about her grandmother.

[crying]
Mami...
[laughs]



And, of course, her love story.



And, friends, what could Jane
do at that moment but write?



[tapping keyboard]

And make one out of many.

Honey. Is
everything okay?

Yes. Yes, everything is great.

I just had an epiphany
about my new book.

I want to combine it
with ideas

from my others, and turn it into
this big multigenerational story

with romance and...

drama and heartache
and crime, even.

All of the lightness

and all of the darkness.

[gasps softly]

Oh. Hi.

Thought you'd be asleep.

No, I'm not asleep.

And I know...

you m*rder*d your sister.



What are you talking about?

Anna broke your heel
when we were playing dress-up.

These are the shoes you wore
the night of Anezka's death,

and this heel...

has clearly
been repaired before.

What? No, it hasn't.

Don't lie to me.

[phone buzzing]Uh...

Okay, fine, maybe I repaired it,
I can't remember.

Stop lying! Your heel broke,

and you fixed it
to hide the evidence.

Which means Magda
was telling the truth.

She was in the room,

and it happened the way
she said it did. Admit it.

I...

Admit it!

I was only trying
to protect my girls.

And so the other shoe drops
after all.

Luisa seemed very... very
angry with her brother.

[scoffs softly]

We're done here!

Not so fast, beautiful sister.

I think it's time you give me
your shares of the hotel.

Go go hell.

Well, then I might have to make
a little visit to Ellie

and Anna.

I do know where they sleep,
after all.

[yelling]

[screams][gasps]

[body thuds]

It all happened so fast--
it was instinct.

J.R.... Jane,

please...

It's-it's brilliant, actually.

I got your case dismissed
with prejudice.

You're guilty, and you
can't be tried again.

I knew you were a
master manipulator.

No, that's not true!

It just happened like that!
I didn't know

you were going
to turn yourself in.

You expect me to believe
anything you say?!

Please...I gave up

everything for you--

my career, my reputation--
because I believed you

when you said you were innocent.

It was all a lie!

I am sorry.
I am sosorry.

We're done, Petra.

I never want to see you again.

[sobbing gasp]

JANE:
Well, that was intense.

How are you feeling,
Abuela? Hmm?

You're a married
woman again.

Mm.



What is it, Mom?

Mm. This is gonna be hard, huh?

Good.

Things are good.

And he asked me

to, uh, meet him tonight
at his place

in a very elusive way.

Proposal elusive?

JANE: Let's just
put it this way.

If he doesn't
do it tonight, I will.

I'm going, I'm going, I'm going.



Good-bye.

Hello?

Oh, thank God you picked up.

It's Krishna.
I've been calling Petra.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Ah, yes. Krishna.

Our surprising plot twist.

She hasn't picked up,

and I think she's in danger.

[sighs softly]

RAMOS:
What are you talking about?

I'm not the blackmailer.

The real blackmailer
threatened my family to get me

to say I did it, and now I think
they want to k*ll Mrs. Solano.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Pull yourself together, Petra!

You're not alone!

How do you know that?

The blackmailer
had someone call me,

asking for security codes

and alternate points of entry
into the hotel.

Did you tell the police?

I couldn't-- I was arrested.

It just happened so fast.

And I hateMrs. Solano,

but I don't want her dead.



[door creaking]

Oh, my God.

Come on, move!

Yes, move, Petra!
Run for it!

It's you.
[gasps]

No! [gasps][g*nsh*t]

[thudding]

[trembling exhale]

Wait. Who did J.R. sh**t?

[quietly]:
sh**t.

[relieved sigh]

Whew.

[takes deep, shuddering breath]

Yes, friends...

catch your breath.

[trembling breath] Prepare yourself.

Jane certainly felt prepared.

Ready for her life to change.

I'm sorry, Jane.

I lied before.

Rose didn't tell me
about my parents.

Okay. What did she tell you?

[sighs]



Surprise.
