* InnocentlyInsensitive: At the brunch, Rogelio shows a little film he put together for Jane's first Mother's Day, with her loves ones talking about what a loving, attentive mother she is. This is a sweet, well-intentioned gesture, but it makes Petra feel like crap. (In Ro's defense, he didn't realize the Mother's Day celebrations would include Petra.)

* AbileneParadox: One episode has Petra invite Jane and her family to a Mother's Day brunch before Anezka throws a wrench into their friendship. Jane, her mother, and her grandmother don't want to do go because it interferes with their established traditions for Mother's Day; later, Jane and Petra fight on the phone due to [[PoorCommunicationKills poor communication]], and both refuse to cancel because they want to seem like the bigger person. Rafael also doesn't feel like being there because of external problems, but all parties go for the sake of their large mixed family. This results in a lunch so awkward that the narrator invites the audience to make a DrinkingGame out of it.

* SettingUpdate: Discussed. The 'classic' inspirations for ''My Fair Lady'' and ''Roxanne'' go over Rogelio's head, but he gets the gist.

Petra invites Rafael and Jane's family to a Mother's Day brunch-turned-lunch as Anezka throws a wrench into Jane and Petra's budding friendship. Rogelio tries to to ingratiate himself with Dina's circle. Rafael's relationship with Derek takes a darker turn.

----
!!Tropes:

* {{Blackmail}}: Derek holds Rafael's insider trading over his head to get him to sell the Fairwick for $1.
* DrinkingGame: Invoked directly by the narrator, who invites the audience to drink every time something awkward happens at the luncheon.
* {{Crossover}}: In-universe, Rogelio deals with a ''Tiago'' crossover with rival Esteban's show ''Fernando e Isabel''.
* FeigningIntelligence: Rogelio drags Jane along to Dina's birthday dinner so she can help him seem smarter. It works until her phone autocorrects "NATO" to "Nazi", accidentally making him come off as a Nazi sympathizer.
* {{Flynning}}: The duels between Tiago and Fernando, naturally. Esteban points out that it's more dramatic than historical accuracy.
* GagPenis: Both Esteban and Rogelio appear to have a scene like this, if the costumes are anything to go by.
* ImmediateSelfContradiction: Rogelio is dismayed that Dina only sees him as a sex object and hates being objectified, right before asking his costume designer to tighten his pants around the crotch.
* NonSingingVoice: In-universe, Xo sings the chanteuse's song but doesn't act the part.
* PoorCommunicationKills: Almost literally -- it's Anezka's poor communication skills (and perhaps deliberate manipulating of the situation) that causes Jane and Petra's friendship to sour, but also Jane and Petra not clarifying things with each other. Anezka overhears Jane saying Petra isn't a hands-on mom and relays it to Petra as Jane saying Petra is a bad mother.
* PlayingCyrano: At the dinner party, Jane feeds Rogelio lines to make him seem more intelligent and cultured. Also lampshaded and discussed.
-->'''Dina''': Like some ''Cyrano'' thing?\\
'''Rogelio''': Have you seen the movie ''Film/Roxanne''?
* PygmalionPlot: Without the falling in love bit, since he's her dad. Rogelio asks Jane to help him come off as more intelligent. Lampshaded and discussed.
-->'''Jane''': So, you want to do like a ''Pygmalion'' thing?\\
'''Rogelio''': What? No, no, no, like a ''Theatre/MyFairLady'' thing.\\
* SettingUpdate: Discussed. The 'classic' inspirations for ''My Fair Lady'' and ''Roxanne'' go over Rogelio's head, but he gets the gist.
* TakeThat: To performance artist Marina Abramovic, who is "very current [and] super pretentious."
-->'''Rogelio''': She just stares at people for hours at a time? That's not art. That's just bad manners.
