LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Friends, we last left our Jane
saying goodbye

to Michael and telling Rafael
she loved him. Only problem...

It's just, it's too late.

I just don't
trust you anymore, Jane.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Also too late
on the love train?

Alba and her ex-boyfriend
Jorge.

See, she married him
so he could get his green card.

Only problem:
she still loved him.

I know, straight out
of a telenovela, right?

Well, imagine this.

Rogelio was starring
in the American remake

of The Passions of Santos.

And they finally shot
the pilot.

And Petra?
She almost got shot as well.

But J.R. saved her.

Who is it? Who
did I just shoot?

My ex-husband Milos.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
And the happy couple
were on the up and up.

Until...
I didn't e-mail Milos.

It's right here, Petra,
how you said you won't testify

against him
if he gives you the hotel.

I didn't write this.
I'm being set up.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
And then this happened.

Scary man.
He was just in our room.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
And speaking of scary people,

Rose, aka Sin Rostro,
was up to no good.

We need to move up the timeline.

I live just down
the hall, and...

Would you like
to come in?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Poor Luisa. I can't watch.

But you should.
So let's see what happens next.

When Jane Gloriana Villanueva

was nine years old,

she first fell in love with...

reading.

And because Jane loved love,

she also fell in love with...

historical nonfiction.

(chuckles)
Just kidding.

Come on, guys.
You know this by now.

Romance novels.

What are you still doing up?

It's bedtime.
Put the book away.

Five more minutes, please?

Nicholas is about to
propose to Francine.

He's been
in love with her forever.

And finally he won her over.

You know that's not
really how it works, right?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
But actually, friends,

for a long time,

that is exactly
how it worked for Jane.

With him.
I'm a fighter.

And him.
I'm proposing.

And even him.

I am crazy about
this woman! Yeah.

And then him again.
With a different name.
I'm coming a-courtin'.

And, yep, him again, too.

All I want is to put
this ring on your finger.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
So, yes, friends.

Love always came
easily to our Jane.

That is, until it didn't.

I just want to see
how Rafael is doing.

He's completely avoiding me.

He is.
LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
I'll let you be the judge.

Hey!

Where's your daddy?

He said I'm a big boy
and can walk to the door myself.

Hey there.

Where's your daddy?
Oh, he's avoiding you.

It's so frustrating.

How long is this gonna go on?

But he's gonna come around
eventually, right?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
He has to, right?

But this is a telenovela!

Yeah.

Okay. I know.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Which brings us...

Wait. What is Jane doing
at Rafael's?

Remember, Jane, boundaries.

Well, at least
she's not texting him.

Oh, come on.

(car horn blasts)
Oh.

(sharp exhale)

JANE:
I'm so embarrassed.

I made a complete
fool of myself.

But it's an
impossible situation.

I mean, he can't just

cut me out of his
life completely.
I agree...

We're co-parents, you know?
What if there's an emergency?

Well, then...
You know, something
serious with Mateo.

We got to be able
to communicate.

Can we communicate?
Let me talk.

He's a great father.

I-If there was an emergency,
he'd call.

Yeah, based on
how he's acting?

How can I be sure?

Hon, you're just looking
for a hole to crawl through.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Better than crawling

through one
of Rafael's windows.

I really think you should
back off for a while.

ROGELIO:
No! Dead?

(gasps)
How could that be?

(sighs) Why, God, why?

Oh, no.

Who died? I-Is it your mom?
Your dad?

My pilot.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
To be fair,

Rogelio has spent much more
time with his pilot

than with his parents lately.

What happened?

Well, I don't know.

The network passed.

It's crazy...

but I'm going to confront
those executives.

And I'm going to give them
a piece of my mind.

And I'm not going to hold back!

In telling you how much
I respect you

and your opinions,
because I do.

But I just don't understand
why don't you like

the future Emmy award-winning
masterpiece

that is The Passions
of Steve and Brenda?

Look, we loved the idea

of doing a big,
broad telenovela.

But at the end of the day,

well, it was a little too
conventional, actually.

Let's make love
and then invade Switzerland.

They've been neutral
for far too long.

It feels like a
puffed-up soap opera.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Your point?

In today's 500-show
peak TV world,

it just doesn't stand out.

Viewers today want
something edgy,

just a little confusing,

shadowy and dark
with shocking twists.

Sci-fi elements are also big.

Right. And assassins.

Okay. Done.

What's done?
All of that.

I'll do it.

I will come back
with a new proposal,

with every single one
of your ideas incorporated.

You don't need to pay me.

Just promise me you'll read it.

Please.

This is my passion project,
as you know.

(chuckles) Look, the-the truth
is, there's one more note

we haven't told you.
And this one's, um...

well, it's, it's definitely
the biggest.

Whatever it is.
I'll make it so.

It's about the stars.

What about us?

We actually need
them to be younger.

How young are we talking?

You're six years old. It's
time to start eating broccoli.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Ugh. Broccoli.

If I eat my broccoli, can
I have ice cream after?

Uh, no bargaining.

Daddy let me trade.

Oh, yeah?

How's your daddy doing?

Better than me 'cause he doesn't
have to eat broccoli.

But I mean, does he seem
happy or sad?
Regular.

Oh.
I bet he'll bring me
some ice cream tomorrow

when he comes to school.

Oh, he's coming
to school tomorrow?

For the book fair.

Oh. Good to know.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Uh-oh. Looks like Jane's wheels
are spinning.

GPS VOICE:
Turn right on Fremont Avenue.

Make a U-turn.

Why would I make a U-turn?

Because you need to turn around
and go home.

You have no business driving
to Mateo's school

for the book fair.

I'm serious, Jane.

You need to take your mom's
advice and back off.

You're acting cray.

(tires screeching)

Good.
Now head on home.

(tires screeching)

Seriously?
What are you doing?

Oh, no. You can't turn me off,
sister. You're stalking him.

You need to turn around
because you're steering

into restraining order
territory.

(phone vibrating)

Hey there.
RAFAEL (on phone):
Hi. Listen,

I'm at Mateo's school
for the book fair,

and when I got here,
there was a problem.

What kind of problem?

He had a meltdown

and had to be taken
out of class.

I think a kid said
something mean to him.

He was crying,

saying that he was a dummy.

What?

I know.

I'm gonna talk to the teacher,

but I just,
I wanted to tell you.

Uh, yeah, you know, um, I happen
to be close by, so wait for me.

I-I'll come by
and talk to her, too.

Okay, sure.
What's your, uh, ETA?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Oh, about 30 seconds.

I'll be there really soon.

The good news is Mateo
calmed down. He's back in class.

He told us that Simon
called him a dummy

and said that he was stupid.

I know, and I spoke with Simon,
and that won't happen again.

And I'm also gonna speak
to Simon's parents as well.

Thank you.
Maybe Simon was insecure

about his performance in school,
so he took it out on Mateo?

Mm, that's one possibility.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
But judging by her tone,
not the right one.

Look, I actually think
this incident

might have stemmed
from the fact

that Mateo is really struggling
with his reading.

He is quite far behind
the rest of the class.

Mateo's behind?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Wow. Jane really read
that situation wrong.

Uh, so most of the class
is reading by now?

Yes, most are. But there's
nothing to worry about.

Most kids eventually
catch up.

But I like to see a little more
letter recognition

and, uh, you know,
a few sight words at this point.

Okay, so what do we do?
How can we help?

I wouldn't
pressure him.

Just read a lot
to him.

Play word games.
Just engage him.

Okay. Got it.

Yes, absolutely.
Thank you.

I had no idea
that Mateo was behind.

Me neither.

How could we
have missed this?

Well, things have been
a little... crazy.

You know, with your husband
coming back

from the dead and all.

Hmm.

Look, I'm sorry for creeping
around your apartment before.

That was...
Oh, don't worry about it.

We should put it behind us
and focus on Mateo.

We're a good team.
We can get him there.

Yeah.

Plus, I think it's better
that we know.

You're right. We couldn't help
him if we were in the dark.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Although some people prefer
being in the dark.

Okay, this is super hot,

but I have to ask:

why are we in a closet?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Yeah. These two came out
a while ago.

I got new security cameras,

so, unless you want to give
the security guy downstairs

a peep show,
this is the only blind spot.

All right, so you put cameras
in your own bedroom?

I need to find out
which one of Milos's goons

is harassing us, so life
can just go back to normal.

ELLIE:
Mommy? Where are you?

(sighs)
Shoot. The girls are back.

They're early.
I'm sorry.

Okay.

Hey!
Mommy, we missed you.

Can we sleep here tonight?

Oh, not yet, girls.
You'll stay with your daddy

until we figure out
who was out on the balcony.

Can you come, too?

To your father's?
What for?

So the scary man
doesn't get you.

Oh, no, I'm perfectly safe.

Look, J.R.'s here.

Girls, say hello.

It's okay. Um, I think
the girls could use

some alone time
with their mommy.

I've got some things
to do anyway.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Yeah, she couldn't get out

of there fast enough.

Slow down, Ma.

I'm feeling better, but
I'm not ready to sprint.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Can I just say it's nice to see

Xo on the mend.

Let's sit for a minute
so I can catch my breath.

So, what's going on?

Are you guys studying?

You also nervous about spending
all that time with Jorge?

I know, right? She is not
used to being turned down.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
No way. Can't be.

I don't know.

You got this, Mom.

(chuckles)

I got this.

Again, way too fast.

Again, take your time.

But this is so boring.

Well, if you focus
we'll be done sooner.

Now, come on,
what's the first letter?
"R."

Great. Now stretch it out
like a rubber band.

Hey! What was that?

I'm being a black belt.

No karate-chopping the card.

Now, can you stretch it out?

No.

Okay, I'll give you a hint.

The word rhymes with "Ted."

Come on, rhyming is fun.

You like Dr. Seuss, right?

He's got a black belt
in rhyming.

Yes, karate. Hi-yah!

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Sorry, but you kind of

asked for it, Jane.

Okay, the word is "red."

Red, Ted, said.
See how they all rhyme?

I can't do it.

Yes, you can.

You just have
to believe in yourself

and keep trying,
even if it's hard.

Huh?

What rhymes with "sit"?

I quit!

I thought I could take
the network's notes,

but it's impossible.

How come he gets to quit?

He doesn't.

I did.
Well, that's ridiculous.

You're not gonna quit, Dad,

and neither are you, Mateo,

because the Villanueva-
de-la-Vega-Solanos

aren't quitters.

But what they want is too hard.

Nothing is too hard.

Mateo, I know reading
seems hard,

but when you learn to do it,
it's gonna be as fun as karate.

I promise.

And, Dad, you've worked
too hard to give up.

This isn't The Passions
of Steve and Brenda.

This is the passions
of Rogelio!

You know, as hard
as it seems,

we have to rise
to the challenge.

Do you really think
it's possible?

Of course.

So, will you write
the proposal

for the new version
of Steve and Brenda?
Hmm?

One that incorporates
all of their notes

and still stars River and me,

and also younger people
who think they're the stars.

Dad, I don't think I'm
the best person for that.

Come on, who's better than
the father-daughter dream team

who got me a Paloma nomination?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
And no one else
would take the job.

What do you say, Jane?
Will you do it?

You know what, yes.

As hard as it seems,
I will write the proposal,

because I rise to a challenge.

This is gonna be great.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
That's up for debate.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Nice boundary-respecting, Jane.

(phone chimes)

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Okay, well, that's just kismet.

Ah...

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: I'd say
that's impressive at your age,

even if it's make-believe.

Do what, Mom?
What's wrong?

You won't screw up.

Then don't do it alone.

I'll help you guys.

And whenever your feelings
begin to take over,

just squeeze my hand... okay?

Okay.

ROGELIO:
Together, we are unstoppable.

So, here's what I'm
thinking, you know.

The network wants
younger leads,

so the obvious solution
would be to hire

the best CGI guys in Hollywood
and age me down.

Like Brad Pitt
in Benjamin Button.

River can play my mother.

America's first
mother/son co-presidents.

That is definitely an...
an idea.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
But, judging by her tone,
not the right one.

But you know,
since we're spitballing,

in the book that I'm writing,
I go back and forth

between the past
and the present,

with younger and older versions
of all my characters.

Yeah, flashbacks just
don't have the "wow" factor.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Hey...

I'm not talking about
flashbacks.

I'm talking about
multiple timelines.

You and River can play
Steve and Brenda in the present,

and the two younger leads
can play you guys in the past.

We'll cut back and forth
between the past and present.

I guess it could work
in a novel,

but I don't want this to be
a boring book.

No offense.

Some taken.

And it's not gonna be
like a boring book.

It's gonna be more like
that TV show This Is Us.

Oh, I love This Is Us.

And I'm good friends
with Justin Hartley.

ROGELIO: You know,
I am also a big star,

so I know how hard
it is to go out

and constantly get noticed,

and have people talk
to you like they know you.

Justin, right?

Rogelio De La Vega.

Just wanted to say hello,
one celebrity to another.

You know, I find a nice,
full-body wax in advance

really helps a tan soak in.

Sugar wax or resin?

Maybe Hartley can make a cameo.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
(scoffs) Yeah, right.

Hartley doesn't do cameos.

I'm in. Let's get started
on the proposal.

Oh, actually, I have to be
at Raf's in 15 minutes

for Mateo's study session.

Why don't we get together
tomorrow night,

and I'll give you
a rough draft?

Okay. Well, go forth.
And remember...

you're training
the third generation

of De La Vega geniuses.

Ball.

Uh, bat.

Uh, "T" sounds like "tuh."

Mommy.
Hmm?

What rhymes with bat?

Bat, cat, sat.
Okay, your turn.

Skip my turn.

No, come on, Mr. Sweetface,
you can do it.

Just one rhyme, and then
we'll take a break, okay?

Heart.

What other word
sounds like heart?

RAFAEL (slowly):
Heart...

Ha-art.

Art?

Art! Yes!
Ding, ding, ding,
ding, ding!

We have a winner!

And fart.
Fart!

Yes. Yes!

Heart, art, fart.

Farty poopy pants.

Well, that doesn't rhyme,
but farty party.

And goopy poopy.

And penis-teenis.

Not really a word,
but it still rhymes.

And now is a good time
to take a break.

Cookie?
Go ahead.

So, maybe tomorrow
we can... grab breakfast.

Just, um, us.
And talk.

I work the morning shift
tomorrow. Can you do lunch?

Can't. I have to get ready
for the open house on Fuller.

(whispers):
We'll find another time.

XIOMARA:
When, exactly?

It was January,

and I'd been working at
the gift shop for three months

when Alba walked in.

In English, Ma.

(sighs)
Yes.

Uh, Mrs. Cohen was
a mean old lady,

but Jorge

actually got her to smile.

You have to hear this. Magical.

Clearest ocean sound
you ever heard.

Come on.

ALBA:
He charmed us both that day.

Good job.

Jorge, how often are you
intimate with your wife?

Two to three times a week.

Impressive.
LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
That's what I said.

Alba, what would you say
is Jorge's greatest flaw?

His pride.

He won't admit it,

but last week,
he loaded the dishwasher wrong

and broke my
favorite dish.

He's a very prideful man.

Great answer, Ma. Very specific.

You guys are
really nailing it.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Or finger-nailing it.

(door closes)

Oh, hey, hon.
Hey.

We're just finishing up
our study session.

Oh.
How did yours go?

Really good, actually.

Uh, turns out, flatulence is key

to maintaining Mateo's interest.
Now we know.

(laughter)

And Raf and I are making plans
to get together.

And it was his idea.

Ah...

That's really great,
but be careful.

Oh, I've been careful, Ma,
my whole life.

I don't want to be careful,
I want to be with Rafael.

I love him and he loves me,
I know it.

That doesn't just go away.

PETRA: Stay over tonight?
LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Plus side of having

a psycho on the loose
at the hotel?

The girls are sleeping
at their dad's again,

so maybe come back,
or I'll come to you and then...

(woman speaking in Czech nearby)

I-I'll call you back.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
What language is that?

Let me check. Oh, it is Czech.

Oh, sorry.
You don't speak Czech.

Hurry, Petra.

Looks like our psycho's
been caught red-handed.

Or, I guess, red-feathered.

Call the police, now.

We're back!
Oh, my girls,

I'm so happy you're home.

So are we.

We missed our silk sheets.

And our lavender bubble baths.

(whispers):
Daddy's isn't organic.

So, Pammy the Parrot?

Really?
Yes, the bird was compromised.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Total cuckoo.

She denies it, but her time
cards put her at the hotel

when each
of the incidents happened.

I had her arrested.

I guess you could say,
she clipped her wings.

Put her in a cage,
on account of her fowl play...

Yeah, but enough with the bird.
Noted.

The point is,
the danger is gone, thank God.

On to the next disaster.
ANNA: Mommy!

Can we order room service?

Of course. Whatever you want.

The world is your oyster today.

BOTH:
Ooh, oysters.

You know who else
loves oysters? J.R.

And she's coming over
for dinner tonight.

All right,
say goodbye to your daddy.

Come on.

Mm.

I want to spend time
with you alone, Jane.

Just the two of us.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Get back
to the telenovela, Jane.

Telenovela, telenovela,
telenovela.

(phone chimes)

(exhales)

(phone chimes)

Okay, the big epic gesture.

Think, Jane.

(ringtone playing)

Hey, Dad.

Jane, my sensational scribe.

Just wanted to check in
and make sure you got my text

about how important
the romantic gesture is.

Yep, I got it.

Good. Because it has to be

the thing
that changes everything.

So think epic. Huge! Monumental.

Understood.

But also make it
small and personal.

Huge but small. Got it.

Of course you do.

Now, go forth and write,
my talented daughter.

(farts)
Oops.

You're also
my talented daughter.

Bye, Dad.

(sighs)

(phone chimes)

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Ah, her own romantic hero.

Talk about worlds colliding.

And friends, in that moment,

Jane knew exactly
what she had to do.

I remembered where you said
you hide the keys

from when I helped you
stage that apartment.

I know tomorrow's open house
is a big deal,

so I thought I'd help again.

And I wanted
to make a gesture

to say I love you, Rafael,
so much.

And I want to remind you
of what we have,

and how we can't
just give up on...

Oh...

Jane, this is my boss, Garret.

Our clients weren't
available tomorrow,

so we're showing them
the property today.

Oh, my God, I'm so sorry. Let me
just get out of your hair.

Do you have romantic dates
in all the houses

we're trying to sell?

No, sir, I-I promise
that I would...

You and your girlfriend need to
leave. I'll take it from here.

I am so sorry.
What the hell were you thinking?

I thought that you were
gonna be alone,

and I just wanted to make
a grand romantic gesture

because there was an opening.
What opening?

Well, we were texting,

and you invited me out alone.

Because I wanted to talk about
Mateo without him overhearing.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Guess Mateo isn't the only one

reading things wrong
these days.

I'm so sorry. I misunderstood.

I-I'll fix this.

What's your boss's name?
Stop, stop, stop.

It's not for you to fix.

Maybe I wasn't
clear before,

but let me be
perfectly clear now:

breakfast was never
supposed to be a date.

And today?
I was just trying to do my job.

And when I said
that we're a team,

I didn't mean romantically.

I am trying to be
a good co-parent.

But you and I?

Jane, we are through.

So you need
to move on.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
We last left Jane having made
an epic gesture,

which turned out to be
an epic failure.

Just mortifying, for both of us.

Oh, I feel horrible. I
don't know what to do, Mom.

Well, you don't really
have a choice.

Leave him alone.

But I love him.

And he's making a mistake.

Can you even hear yourself?
Just because you love someone

doesn't mean
you get to have them.

Imagine if the roles
were reversed

and you were a man
acting like this.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Ooh, yes, let's.

(sniffs)

Oh, come on.

I just wanted to say hi!

Maybe a quick peek?

I'm never giving up!

Yeah, okay. I-I guess
when you put it that way,

I was a little...
Creepy?

Overbearing.

I know how hard it is,

but you can't force someone
to feel something they don't.

I just don't believe,
in my heart, that it's over.

You don't have to believe it,
but you have to accept it.

You're right.

I'll leave him alone.

Alba...
Hmm?

(bell chimes)

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Okay, friends, let's do this.

All right. Tell me about
your husband's family.

Well, uh,
he has an older sister,

and he's very close with...

God. He's always been

a big presence
in my wife's life.

She loves...

Spicy cheese puffs.

I think they are disgusting, but
Jorge can't get enough of them.

I don't think
there's anyone else...

Who I could work with all day,
and live with,

and still feel like I never
have enough time with.

And she can read me so well.
She's not afraid to call me out

on my stubbornness, like when
I load the dishwasher wrong

and won't admit it.

And she's the most generous
person I know.

She always puts
her feelings aside,

even when other people
are just being prideful.

I never imagined

I would be lucky enough
to have a wife like her.

I cannot wait
to read what you wrote.

Should I be prepared
to have my mind blown,

my socks knocked off?

Oh, uh...
Oh!

Both! Should I read
the proposal aloud

to maximize dramatic impact?

I do a great Brenda.

Actually, I haven't
written it yet.

What?

I'm so sorry.

It's just been a crazy day.

What happened?

I thought you were writing.
I was.

But then I decided to make
a grand gesture to Rafael

which went horribly wrong.

So you just blew it off?

I'm so sorry. I'll write it
by tomorrow, I promise.

Jane, this show
is everything to me.

My entire
American career

is riding on it.

The passions of Rogelio.

That's what you said.

I know.

I'm so sorry, Dad.

I'm just really disappointed.

PETRA:
I feel bad.

I wish we could go out to eat,

but I don't want
to be too far from the girls.

No, it's understandable.

It's not like we're
slumming it here.
(chuckles)

I'm just glad we can
finally get back to normal.

Me, too.

Oh, my God. Get down! Gun!
What?

What?!
I got to get
to the girls.

Oh, thank God.

(exhales)

(phone ringing)

Hello?

Mrs. Solano? There's something
you should see.

Yes. There's a sniper.

Did you see them
on your cameras? Who is it?

This is from
one of the new cameras

on your balcony.

Oh, my God.

It was my daughters?

I want you to know
I am not angry.

I just need to know
what happened, okay?

We wanted you and
J.R. to break up.

So you pointed a laser
at her head?

We were trying
to scare her away.

What about the scary person
you saw in your room?

That was us.

Anything else?

We sent fake e-mails
from you to Milos.

Why would you do all this?

To save you from her.

Who? J.R.?

She's a bad guy, Mommy.

We do gun
drills in school

in case bad guys come in.

And we saw her with a gun.

And that guy all bloody.

You weren't asleep?
You saw that?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Looks like we all
read the situation wrong.

Oh, girls.

JANE:
I'm so sorry.

You're right.

I really messed up.

And I hate the idea

that my terrible judgment

screwed things up
for you professionally.

And I love you.

And if you'll give me a chance,

I promise
I'll make it up to you.

Starting with this.

It's my Ro-morse basket.

Thank you.

I really
appreciate this.

Consider yourself forgiven.

You can make me work
a bit harder, I deserve it.

Well, you feel
bad enough.

Plus, you made a
perfect Ro-morse basket

without the help of
a props department.

I know how
hard that is.

Well, can we please
get back to work

on the proposal?
I have some ideas.

I would love that.
Great.

First of all, I really think
the story should be

just as romantic for the old
people as it is for the young.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Speaking
of romantic old people...

(phone rings)

Actually, I'm sorry.

But can we just stop referring
to them as old people?

How about "slightly
less young people"?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Note taken.

Now back to our
slightly less young people.

(gasps, laughs)

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Twice.

(sighs)

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Looks like Alba was reading

Jorge right all along.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Aw...

those slightly less young
people really are romantic.

I like it.

Hi-yah!
Oh. Whatcha doing?

Practicing for
my belt test.

I'm the best.
Where's Daddy?

Oh, he'll be here soon,
Mr. Sweetface.

Actually, I should text Raf.

Make sure he picks up Mateo here
instead of Abuela's.

(stammers) Do you think
that's a good idea?

It's a legit
parenting issue.

I promise.

I'm not just looking for
a reason to text him.

Okay, but this
time allow me

to assist you with your
writing assignment.

The text must
be informative

and not overbearing.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Which I think we can all agree

is another word for "creepy."

Another emoji.

Even after what happened.

Okay, I rarely say this,
but less is more.

Are you okay?

I just keep thinking if I'd
done things differently...

Well, you can't
change the past.

You can only move
forward into the future.

And who knows what
that will look like.

That's it.
The future.

I know, it's full
of possibility.
And it's how

we make the slightly less
young people more intriguing.

What if our
young leads' story

is in present day
and you and River

are living in the future?
I like it, but is
it big enough?

Let me finish.
In the future,

in outer space.
(gasps)

On Mars!

It's brilliant.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: And also
just a little confusing.

Perfect.
We can call it...

This Is Mars.

I have to call Justin
Hartley immediately.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Also feeling triumphant?

I've never seen
a man so smitten.

Jorge barely took his eyes
off you all afternoon.

Oh, did you
tuck Mateo in?

He rhymed two more words.

They both rhyme with "tush"
but still progress, right?

(sighs)

Ugh, it's just...

of all the things Mateo
could struggle with.

Hmm.
The fact that
it's reading

is really hard for me.

I'm a writer, you know?

I wanted him to love it.

Oh, Ma...

(Alba chuckles)

(chuckles)

Oh, sorry.
(laughs)

You are just making me
so emotional. (sniffles)

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Speaking
of emotional mothers...

They saw everything.

I can't believe it. Of course
the girls are terrified of me.

(groans) And you had that
poor parrot arrested.

The bird's
been set free.

Turns out she was
learning Czech so she could

connect with the girls better
when they were at the Kids Club.

(exhales)

What is it?

What's wrong?

I love you, J.R.

But my children are my priority.

Of course.
And right now,

they're traumatized.

And they're scared
to be around you.

Which is why
I need to end things.

(exhales)
I know this isn't fair.

None of this is your fault.
No, it is my
fault, actually.

Since we got back
together, I haven't been

putting in any
effort with the twins.

I mean, the parrot
has been trying harder

to bond with them.

Let me try, at least.

It might not work.
I know.

But you fought for us.

Time and time again.

Now it's my turn;
let me show

the girls I am
not a bad guy.

I want that more than anything.

But I have to be
a mother first.

Agreed.

And if it seems like

I am hurting the
girls in any way,

I'll walk away.

PETRA: So, J.R. and I
are working it out.

But we need to consider
therapy for the girls.

To really... address the trauma.

Of course.
I agree.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Geez.

How many stalkers
does this lady have?

Thank you for being
so supportive.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
Oh, no. It's his stalker.

Please don't be Jane.
Anybody but Jane.

(phone vibrates)

Hey, my favorite person in
the world. Are you almost home?

Ugh, no,
still at the laundromat.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR:
He definitely has some
dirty laundry.

BOBBY: Just folding
that tank top you got me.

Love it, girl.

Hey.

Have you thought any more
about asking Rafael?

If I can meet the kids?
I don't know.

I want to, but we have
such a rocky history.

Girl, don't doubt yourself.

You are sober as a judge.
We go to yoga every day.

You are ready
to be a loving aunt

to your nieces and nephew.

You're right.
I'm gonna call him.

Good.

Oh, shoot. Got to go;
laundry's done.
