* AmbiguousSituation: The reason Pedro is both viewed with suspicion by the police and has a restraining order against him is because, according to Sabrina, he tried to kill their son Jair supposedly for being autistic. That being said, we only have Sabrina's word to go by it, and one of the times she says it is after she was possessed. Jaime also responds to Mirta's comment on these claims by saying Sabrina made them up. But Jaime has just as much of a reason to lie as Sabrina does, given that he's loyal to his brother, and it being implied that part of his loyalty stems from guilt over [[AFamilyAffair a possible affair between him and Sabrina]].
