- Synopsis
- A bandaged Pipo is recuperating in the hospital from the pummeling that Petra gave her. Khamo leaves Luba due to her infidelity. Ofelia's heart attack turns out to have been mild. After a final tête-à-tête with Luba, she leaves for good. Sergio and Gato kidnap Fortunato for his refusal to publicly reveal his affair with Doralis. Sergio brutally murders him while Gato looks on. On the way back, the two die in a car crash, off-panel.
