Jane discovers that Michael has his memories back, and finds herself right back in the middle of the show's central love triangle.
Meanwhile, Petra tries to reconcile with J.R. while dealing with Magda's attempts at extortion, Xiomara tries to put her chemo behind her, and Alba deals with Jorge's return from visiting his mother.
Tropes:
- Arc Words: The episode is structured around the phrase "worst nightmare."
- Catapult Nightmare: Jane had one as a child involving her father coming back and taking her away from Xo and Alba. She's having one in the present-day that she doesn't want to talk about; it turns out to be very similar, except that it instead involves Michael and Rafael.
- I Just Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Subverted as Michael first says this nearly word-for-word to explain why he's still leaving even though he has his memories back, but then he immediately takes it all back as he decides to stay because he still loves Jane and wants to get back together with her.
- Irrevocable Message: Jane mails her divorce papers, then has to talk the mailman into looking the other way while she commits the federal crime of tampering with the mail.
- Playing Cyrano: Petra makes Jane help her craft her text-message flirtation with J.R.
