"It doesn't matter where we live because wherever you are is home to me."
Michael to Jane

Jane and Michael hit a snag in their wedding-planning when the Villanueva house has structural problems. Jane and Rafael worry about Petra's health. Alba makes a surprising decision about Pablo.


Tropes

  • As Herself: Charo.
  • Fourth-Date Marriage: Alba accepts Pablo's marriage proposal on their first date in 40 years.
  • Jerkass: Magda blows off Petra's question about postpartum depression and tells Petra she should give away her children for their own good.
  • Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Rogelio has his crew create a set that is just like the interior of her house, for the wedding, since the actual house was flooded. (It's most likely a real set from the show).
  • Maternally Challenged: Petra's behavior is so off Jane notices and takes her to a mommy group. They suspect Petra is dealing with postpartum depression.
  • Odd Friendship: Besides Jane's concern for Petra's health, Petra sticks up for Jane's right to move Mateo to a nice house that's a little farther from the Marbella than Rafael would prefer.
  • The Reveal: When Jane and Michael see an impossibly perfect house listing, they wonder if Rafael is secretly subsidizing it for them. The audience learns that it's Petra.
