Go To

Jane and Rafael discuss moving in together. Petra tries to force Lachlan out of the Marbella without buying him out. Xo has a pregnancy scare. Rogelio struggles with starting work on Esteban's telenovela.


Tropes

  • Blackmail Backfire: Lachlan tries to blackmail Petra with their sex tape, but she releases it herself.
  • Grand Romantic Gesture: Rafael misinterprets his and Jane's conversation about moving in together, so he enlists her favorite romance novelists in a public proposal.
  • Mythology Gag: When Jane gets into her writing groove, the narrator describes her mindset as if she transformed into a woman named… Juana.
  • Once More, with Clarity: The scene where Jane talks about not wanting to throw out her planned "life order" (= get engaged, get married, move in together, then have a baby) is shown twice. Once as Jane meant it, her not wanting to rush things with Rafael. And once how Rafael interpreted it, Jane wanting him to propose before they live together or their baby is born. The scene from Rafael's perspective has Jane use different word emphasis that implies wanting a proposal.
    Narrator: Yep, guys hear what they want to hear.
  • Polar Opposite Twins: Roman Zazo was a jerk who had connections to Sin Rostro and had an affair with his best friend's wife. Aaron Zazo is a polite, gentle vegetarian who didn't talk to his brother for years. Subverted in that it's really Roman pretending to be Aaron.
  • Running Gag: Rogelio tells another costume department "I don't pop in peach".
