LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Friends, let's talk Jane.

She's been through so much.

She got married, but then...

I woke up feeling a little off.

Thought it was pre-test jitters.

Well, how do you feel now?

Totally fine.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: And the worst thing happened,

and Michael died.

And so Jane wrote a book

about their love story,

and when it got published,

well, Jane was

pretty freaking excited.

Plus, things were going great

with her boyfriend, Adam.

My publisher set up

a mini book tour.

I was wondering if you wanted to come.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: He even drew The cover art for her book.

Unfortunately...

- I'm moving to L.A. - I can't believe this.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Yeah, so that officially sucked.

Also having relationship woes,

Jane's parents.

On the bright side, Alba and

Jorge were still going strong.

Not doing as well...

our Rafael.

See, his sister, Luisa,

finally decided

to give him back his hotel shares.

Only problem,

Luisa was hallucinating

some man named Carl.

You see Carl here, right?

No.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: And so she checked herself

into a psychiatric hospital.

But OMG, Carl was real.

See, Petra's twin sister, Anezka,

And their mother, Magda, set Luisa up

to make her think she was losing her mind,

So they could assume control of the hotel.

In the event of her incapacitation,

all her hotel shares

go to Anezka.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: So Petra tried to drive a wedge

between Magda and Anezka,

which left Anezka sad

and confused,

and, well...

and I won't leave you hanging any longer,

So let's begin.

There were three times on her journey

to becoming a published author

when Jane Gloriana Villanueva

really needed a push.

And each time,

Rafael was there.

This, of course,

was the first time.

Well, it depends.

Am I being practical or brave?

Be brave.

I'm a writer?

I have never said that out loud before.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: And friends, suddenly

A window of possibilities

opened for Jane.

And I'm not gonna let stupid Adam

- ruin my book tour! - [KEYBOARD CLACKING]

Even though he already ruined

my book-launch party by suddenly deciding

to move across the country,

even though I asked him three times...

three times, Ma!

If he was sure he was in,

and every single time he said,

ha, ha, "Yeah, I'm all in."

- I mean, who does that? - Men.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Present company excluded ofcourse.

I'd rather go with you on my book tour, anyway.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: "Tour" is a little ambitious.

It's two stops.

Well, it's perfect timing, because I need time away

from your father.

What's this?

Our itinerary.

Okay. Well, this is exciting.

Exactly. So exciting, yeah.

And Adam the jackass won't be

a part of any of it, which is his loss,

Because this is gonna be so much freakin' fun!

- [MUTTERS] - Yeah!

[GRUNTS]

What are you doing here?

I wanted to loan

my daughter

my classic convertible

for her first

book tour.

Jane, don't you

take those keys.

Ma,

I'm staying out of your fight,

But we're taking the convertible!

Come on, Xo.

I said I was sorry.

That you made me feel guilty for the last five years

For not telling you about Jane?

When you already had

a sneaking suspicion...

A small sneaking suspicion.

That I'd had

the baby.

[HORN HONKING]

Look... I just need

some space from you.

[HONKING CONTINUES]

JANE: Mateo!

Stop honking the horn!

I got him, I got him.

recently been found hanging

No. Anezka's body

Of course I am.

She committed suicide

after I tried to drive a wedge between her and my mother,

So I feel guilty, all right?

Fine.

Her death was so public,

if I don't seem sad, it'll look bad for the hotel.

- Mm. - [SIGHS] So...

I'm going to set out the urn with her ashes,

People can say good-bye to her,

And then this whole chapter

of my life will be over.

- [WHOOPS] - Yeah!

- [CACKLING] - [WHOOPING]

Wait, wait, let me have your phone.

I want to take a picture.

We have to document this,

because clearly, we are so drunk,

- We're not gonna remember this - in the morning.

All right! Come on!

Let me see what you real...

[CHUCKLES]

♪ Bright light fever ♪

- Mateo was sick, and you guys - hid it from me?

He was okay,

and it was your book tour.

Mateo is much more important, Ma.

Of course he is, and Rafael

was taking him to the doctor.

Which I need to know,

because I am his mother.

I don't understand why you

would ever hide that from me.

What's going on?

You tend to...

overreact when Mateo is sick, my love.

And of course,

we understand why,

given what happened with Michael.

That's absurd.

I don't overreact.

I react the way any mother would

if her child is sick.

Does Rafael feel

the same way too?

You should talk to Rafael about all of this.

Oh, believe me, I will talk to him.

- Slow down, Jane. - JANE: No, I will not slow down.

Mateo's my child. I need to know

what's going on with him,

especially

in regards to health.

Yes, I may be overly sensitive

to illness because of Michael,

but you do not need to protect me.

- RAFAEL: - I wasn't protecting you.

I was protecting Mateo.

What?

[SIGHS]

Do you remember the first time you went away?

And Mateo got sick

and then we drove to see you.

- [WATER RUNNING] - Whoa, come here.

- [CHUCKLES] - Whoa.

- Hey! - Come here.

Okay. Well, it looks like

you're feeling better.

Can we ask Mom to be sure?

Well, Mommy's in the shower.

How do you feel?

I think okay.

We should ask Mommy.

Wh-why do you want to ask Mommy?

Because I could catch a germ

and die like Michael.

Does that scare you?

Okay. Look at me,

all right?

You're not gonna die.

Okay? And you know something else?

You're strong,

like a lion.

RAFAEL: I just didn't want him to be

afraid every time he got sick.

I can't believe I did that to him.

I'm sorry.

No, stop.

It's not your fault you're scared.

And it's not your fault

that Michael didn't go to the doctor.

Thank you for saying that.

You okay?

Yeah.

I'll talk to you later.

[BUTTONS CLACKING]

What's this?

BELLBOY: Special delivery.

Do you want me to make up the swans?

- ALL [IN UNISON]: - No!

[IN SPANISH] Rogelio sure is persistent.

He's got to stop already.

I'm texting him.

[BUTTONS CLACKING]

- He says - they're not from him.

[LAUGHING] He's mad at me

for running away.

ALBA: Well, maybe you shouldn't have.

All these years, he...

What? He didn't call to check in,

- you didn't call - to tell him, so...

you're both wrong.

Deal with it. Don't run away.

- [SCOFFS] - You should talk.

You ran away from Jorge.

I ran away from a question,

you ran away from a marriage.

- Oh... - Hmm?

Abuela.

¿Qué?

Alba,

I still want to marry you.

Love, Jorge.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Ah, love.

♪♪

- Don't you cry. - JANE: I'm not.

I'm not gonna cry.

Because we're 30 minutes

from the Romance Writers Convention, which is going to be

Livestreamed to hundreds of fans.

I know.

Abuela, remind me again,

why Adam was so terrible for me.

[IN SPANISH] I don't actually think he was...

- What? - Ma!

Obviously I hated him for breaking your heart.

And clearly he wouldn't have worked long-term.

But...

I don't think we would have... danced on the bar last night

if you hadn't dated Adam.

He reminded you

that you were young and fun.

And everyone needs that sometimes.

JANE: And so,

Yeah, with all the lusty faces

I make while I'm writing,

I can't, uh, write

in a coffee shop anymore.

[LAUGHTER]

Yeah.

I saw your meltdown on stage with Lyanla.

It was trending on Twitter

for a few minutes.

Oh, good,

heh-heh-heh.

- Can you talk more - about that?

- Hmm? - Like,

Wh-what's it like to write

romance through heartbreak?

Are you gonna write about the

cover artist in your next book?

Well, that is

a two-part question.

First, romance

through heartbreak.

I mean, heartbreak is a great place to start

for a character, right? Uh...

not looking for love,

suddenly it happens.

Suddenly, feelings

you thought were gone

are now awakened.

As for whether he'll be in

the next book, specifically?

- Every story needs a villain, - right?

Go, Mommy!

Oh, she's nailing it.

That's my girl. Now bring it home, Jane.

- WOMAN: - So what now?

Are you opening the door

to love again?

JANE: Personally?

I wouldn't go that far.

But...

maybe a window.

[JANE CHUCKLES]

[APPLAUSE]

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: True, there were only eight

people in the audience,

but damned if she didn't charm

the entire octet.

[APPLAUSE CONTINUES]

Thank you so much for coming.

[CHUCKLES]

[INHALES]

Ooh. Who should

I make this out to?

Patricia.

♪♪♪

Sorry. Hi, I, uh...

I didn't know

that you were coming.

Well, um,

I kept track of you.

A little.

And when the book came out,

I-I got it,

and... And I read it.

And I felt Michael again.

And I didn't think

I would ever feel him again.

He would have

loved this.

I love it.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: And friends,

This was the only review

that really mattered.

Thank you so much.

That means

everything.

I'm sorry that I said

those things to you.

What happened,

I know, was not your fault.

He was a grown man.

He should have gone to the doctor.

It's just...

You can't get mad at the person

who died, you know?

Yeah, I know.

[EXHALES]

- [QUIETLY] - Will you sign my book?

Oh... Yeah!

[BOTH LAUGH]

[SIGHING]

[IN SPANISH] I had a breakthrough.

What?

ALBA: At your reading.

Listening to you talk about love.

And I decided to say yes

to Jorge's proposal.

You... You what?

What? Mom! [LAUGHS]

I need to say yes to love.

I'd be a fool to turn down

someone who makes me happy.

[SHOUTS]

[LAUGHING] Yeah!

Can we finally take this top

down and celebrate?

Let's go!

[LAUGHING, WHOOPING]

Yes!

ALBA: All right, slow down, Xiomara.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Yup. Back to real life.

I'm sorry.

You were right.

I-I shouldn't have run away.

I obviously have

a lot of work to do

on being a married woman.

I'm still figuring it out.

And I'm sorry for who I was.

For my failings.

But I've changed.

Yeah. I know.

But there's still a lot

to talk about, you know.

So I've been thinking,

I want to go to counseling.

That's a great idea.

You should go.

Not me, us.

We should go to couples therapy together.

[LAUGHS]

No way. I don't believe

in that garbage.

But if you need me

to go with you,

while they figure out

your issues,

I'm happy to do that.

[EXHALES]

Fine.

Let's do that, then.

Thank you.

[IN SPANISH] You're back...

[IN SPANISH] I'm so sorry for running away.

But your proposal just took me by surprise, and...

I needed some time.

And?

And I have an answer for you,

if you'd like to ask me again.

♪♪♪

[EXHALES]

Alba...

would you do me the honor of marrying me?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: And in that moment,

Alba knew the only answer

she could give was...

No.

- What? - LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: What?

I'm so sorry.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Well, I guess that window

is officially closed.

Hello, beautiful sister.

Okay, first lesson.

Future lessons will take place

in my office from now on.

No. They won't.

What's going on?

Well, for one,

I finally finished

watching Game of Thrones,

and spoiler alert,

turns out Sansa

becomes very powerful.

What are you talking about?

Beautiful sister thinks

I am stupid donkey.

But I figure out truth.

You have been whispering lies to me

this whole time.

You don't care about me.

Hi, Mommy.

Hi, girls.

[GASPS]

Do you miss your Auntie Anezka?

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: To clarify...

Not really. We hate her, right?

But Mommy was crying

at her funeral.

After we sprayed perfume

in your eyes?

You know what I learn

from my own funeral?

That I am all alone

in this world.

And now that I know,

I will rule things my way.

Look, Anezka.

You're right.

I don't trust you.

But guess what.

It doesn't matter.

Because once I tell Luisa that you and Mother gaslit her,

She's going to get out and sign

all her shares over to Rafael.

- I told her. - What?

I told her.

Only, not that version.

The version I tell her

is that you and Rafael were the

ones who had been sending Carl

and lighting her gas.

That's a lie.

- [LAUGHS] - Yes.

Well, Luisa

be not knowing that.

And she seemed very,

very angry with her brother.

- What the hell, man? - Apparently,

She really didn't rder the casket.

- Oh! - Oh!

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: And I promise you, friends,

This time, she really is dead.

Ned Stark dead.

JANE: To be continued.

Please just read

for five more minutes.

Mm, nope.

It's time for bed.

[KISSES]

Good night, Mr. Sweetface.

I'm a lion.

Right, Daddy?

Yes, but that's our secret, remember?

[KISSES]

What was all that lion stuff about?

Eh, it was a father-son thing.

See? I knew you'd get there.

We make a really good team.

It's getting late.

[LAUGHS SOFTLY]

[WATER RUNNING]

[WATER STOPS]

Mateo seems fine.

Thank you, a-again,

- for not calling me. - What's wrong?

The review. Maybe I'm not cut out

- to be a writer. - That is just your doubts

and your fears talking.

You have to keep writing.

You are a writer.

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: Yes, friends.

This was the third time.

You need me to say it?

Be brave.

Be brave.

Be brave.

♪♪♪

LATIN LOVER NARRATOR: And friends, he knew

then and there,

that he had to be brave too.
