Fr. Cristobal and meets Mum Madeiline


Fr. Cristobal enters the visiting room and saw an elderly woman who shows him half of the photograph and tells him she is his mother.

He asks if it is a joke but the woman says no claiming shes been wanting to see him again forever. She went on to say being in the prison may have wrecked his life, but it is what made her to find him and he is her only child.

Cristobal insist he is an orphan right from a tender age and stands up but madam Madeleine tells him that she lives in Paris, but was born in Mexico. That his photo in the papers and his name made her abandon all to come back to Mexico. Cristobal apologise for the trouble but says she is wasting her time as he has no mother and she should go back to where she came from. Madeleine intends to leave a box at the priest’s residence that has family papers and photos so Cristobal can go through and find out about his mother and his family. She pleaded with him to reconsider then she dropped her hotel address and informed him she is staying through the trial's period. When he was leaving, she takes his hand, kisses it and leans her cheek into it. Cristobal gives her a perfunctory blessing and leaves.

The sun rises over Real del Monte.

Angelica is telling Orlando about what Dario did to her. Orlando says he’s sorry he hasn’t been around especially with the birth of his grandson. Angelica informs him she’s going to go after Dario with everything she’s got. Orlando says he’s sorry, but he couldn’t find the manuscript she gave him. He wanted to read it. Why? she says sharply. It was a good story, she says, or Dario wouldn’t have stolen it. Don’t look for it, I found it thrown in among your other papers. Orlando says he really wanted to read it and Angelica says is that why you lied to me and said you had? Orlando says I was ashamed that I hadn’t yet. That he was awfully sorry and hopes to be honest with her henceforth. Angelica gets emotional saying she feels all alone but Orlando assures that she is not.

Don Eugenio calls Gabriel and he assures him he’s fine. He wants to come see him but using the excuse of the unfinished conversation with Carlota.

Paloma and Lilian are visiting and the conversation turns to Paloma and Gabriel, but Paloma denies any relationship. Lilian advises her to move on as Emiliano is making his own life with Romina and the baby. Paloma changes the subject by asking about Erik. When Lilian tells her there are still having misunderstanding because of German, Paloma suggests she talk with him and tell him how she feels.

 A nurse comes up and asks if they’re going to go by the neonatal unit as Romina is required to express her milk for the baby. Camila tries talking to Romina but she refuses saying she can do it at home not in the open. The nurse warns her that her milk will dry up. Romina walks off to the see the baby. She looks at the baby through the observation window and sees the resemblance with German and she doesn’t know what she’s going to do when he gets bigger. When Emiliano and Camila come up, she gushes about how the baby looks just like him. Emiliano does not see how and Camila looks very worried.


In the prison yard, Christobal remembers all that the mother said that she hadn’t had one day of peace all these years. Chicho spots him and runs over and reminded him of what his mother said that God’s ways are not men’s ways. Canibal the enemy approaches and tells him he can’t wait until the day when he quits pretending to be innocent and admits to be a killer, like the rest of them there. Chicho tells him to buzz off and they started struggling. The guards come and separated them and one informs Christobal he has a visitor. He suspected Carlota and does not want to go but the guard tells him he has to.
True to suspicion, It’s Carlota waiting for him. He rushes for the door but it was closed. He wants to know why she won’t leave him alone and accuses her of being responsible for all this. Carlota admits and tells him his love has made her do terrible things. She said she came to ask one more time that he be her man. Cristobal responded "You are the worst thing that has happened to me in my life. I’d rather spend the rest of my days in prison than in bed with you".
"Fine" says Carlota, "If you want to stay in prison, help yourself. We would have been great together".
The guard lets Christobal out and she says "You lost your opportunity".
