3->'''Jane''': This might sound crazy, but I don't think that's Petra.\
4'''Narrator''': It's about damn time.

6As Jane moves into her new home, Alba and Xiomara deal with empty-nester syndrome and question their own career paths. Meanwhile, Jane and Michael realize they can't actually afford the house they live in, leading to some financial squabbles. Rogelio makes another attempt to increase his American profile by being cast in a Hallmark movie. Since Amanda Elaine wrote the book the movie was based on, he asks Rafael to go as her date to a charity event in exchange for a role.

8!!Tropes:
9
10* {{Blackmail}}: Anezka blackmails Rafael into selling her his shares with the knowledge of him covering up Emilio's shady dealings.
11* BrokeEpisode: Jane and Michael spend the episode trying to figure out how they're going to cut expenses enough to cover rent on their house, now that Petra's stopped covering it for them. They eventually decide to move into a smaller apartment.
12* CastingCouch: Mentioned. Rogelio promises not to sleep with the author to get the part ''this'' time.
13* CatFight: Discussed by Rogelio as a classic telenovela trope, as usual, and one actually plays out between "Petra" and Jane in the pool.
14* IntergenerationalFriendship: Rogelio befriends both Rafael ''and'' Luisa in this episode as he asks Rafael for a favor (go as Amanda Elaine's date for a charity event) and 'babysits' Luisa in the process. He actually helps Luisa recognize her issues through acting techniques!
15* MrsRobinson: Amanda is quite eager to get it on with Rafael.
16* NewJobEpisode: For Xo, who tries her hand at working at a bank. It doesn't stick.
