Matilde tries to aggravate Felipe, but he stands his ground. Matilde calls him crazy but he keeps shooing her away. The battle won, Felipe hides his pistol well.
Cabrera insists that Rocio tell him the truth, but Rocio is sick of not being cared for by someone for her. Cabrera replies that he loves her for her, not because she’s pregnant.
Leonardo arrives at the house to confront Cayetana and tells Eleazar to call in Isadora. Cayetana tells Leonardo that it is time to put everything in its place and slaps his face off. She tells him this is only the beginning of the end for trash like him. Leonardo returns the blow and calls her an idiot- she was so easy to manipulate, and she deserves all that he is doing to her. Cayetana has figured it all out- he wants to keep her ranch, but she won’t allow it. She reminds him that he owns nothing, but he pulls out an order that he will force her to sign. Isadora appears and holds a gun to Cayetana’s head as she orders her to sign. Isadora and Leonardo threaten to harm Felipe and Andrea if she doesn’t sign the order that will turn all rights to the ranch to Leonardo.

At the Alcazar Ranch, Samuel and Andrea decide that they will marry in a week. Arturo gives his brothers and his father a gift- a house for each of them, including Veronica, on the ranch grounds. Together, the family sit down to lunch.
That night, Andrea arrives home and is called into her mother’s office. Cayetana tells Andrea that she has decided to give Leonardo another chance. Andrea is completely shocked, but Cayetana makes up the excuse that just as she forgave Ignacio for his affair with Alma, so will she forgive Leonardo. Andrea can’t believe what she is hearing, but Cayetana deals a final blow- she orders Andrea to move out immediately, claiming that since she can’t get along with them, she needs to leave. Andrea doesn’t know that her mother is doing that to save Andrea’s life from Leonardo and Isadora.
Andrea is brokenhearted, and tells Felipe what Cayetana told her, including the selling of the ranch. She tries to get Felipe to go with her, but he replies that his duty is to stay with Cayetana.

At the Alcazar Ranch, the boys each try to comfort their girls in their own way. Samuel creates a romantic ambience for a brokenhearted Andrea. Arturo promises Sofia that he will talk to Samuel to see if Edward will sell them back the Del Junco ranch once it’s bought out. Flavio manages to tease a smile out of Irina with his humor once she rejects his snacks.
The next morning, the girls are in low spirits over losing their ranch, and worry for their grandfather. They decide to go to the ranch, but the boys stop them. The girls manage to convince the boys to go with them to check on Felipe.
Leonardo takes Felipe to the same asylum Julia was taken by Emilio, and Juana recognizes him immediately.
The brothers and sisters arrive at the Del Junco Ranch. Sofia and the girls demand to see their grandfather. Eleazar says that Cayetana and Leonardo have expressly forbidden their entrance into the ranch. He pushes Sofia when she insists that she will enter as an owner of the house, which provokes Arturo. Cayetana hears the commotion outside and tries to rush out but Isadora threatens her. She tells Cayetana what to say, with the threat that she will kill the girls if Cayetana doesn’t cooperate.
Leonardo recognizes Juana at the insane asylum, and bribes the doctor to kill her too. With a plea bargain, Malkovich finally talks and names Ulysses and Roger as Isadora’s accomplice.

Andrea and Irina add that the ranch was their father’s dream, and hers. Cayetana promises that they will receive their part of the inheritance. Sofia demands to see Felipe to take him away.
Felipe wakes up in the asylum. Meanwhile, Cayetana tries to convince the girls that she doesn’t want to let Felipe go with them. Sofia wants to hear it from him, but Matilde cuts in and says Felipe is sleeping. Andrea asks Cayetana if that’s true, which she affirms. The girls say they will return, but Cayetana tells them not to. She promises instead that when she goes to Europe, Felipe will go with the girls to the Alcazar Ranch.
Cayetana rushes into the house and finds Felipe’s wheelchair. She demands to know what Isadora did to her father.
At the Alcazar Ranch, Arturo encourages Sofia- she can’t let Cayetana ruin their lives. Andrea insists that something is wrong- Cayetana seemed different to her.
Ulysses finds out Malkovich turned them all in- they escape just as Fernandez arrives with his officers. They find in Ulysses’ suitcase Bridgitte’s old USB, and Fernandez finally puts two and two together, and realizes that Bridgitte was basically held hostage and threatened.
Cayetana cries for her father, and Isadora threatens her again to try and get her to sign. She stands firm. Leonardo tries his hand but Cayetana will not do anything until she sees her father alive and well. Leonardo orders Eleazar to chain up Cayetana in the basement until she folds.
At Dario’s spa, the girls talk to Miranda about the sale of the ranch. Miranda remembers the conversation she overheard and had with Leonardo, when she accused him of wanting to steal the ranch. She tells the girls that the decision to sell the ranch may not have been Cayetana’s.
Ulysses and his men show up at the Del Junco ranch to tell Leonardo what happened with the police. Matilde and Eleazar overhear. They know they cannot get caught up with police again since they already have one conviction on their record. They try to steal Cayetana’s jewels and run, but Isadora finds them and forces them to return all they’ve stolen and remain at the ranch.
Later, Arturo finds a despondent Sofia in their room. She can’t stop thinking of her mother, her grandfather, and the lands her father loved. Arturo is at a loss of what to do, but he tells Sofia he loves her and always will.
Leonardo gives money to Ulysses and Roger, but their escape is thwarted by Miranda’s arrival. Miranda makes up an excuse that she is there to pick up some of Irina’s casting tapes, but when Leonardo goes into the office to get the supposed tapes Miranda sneaks off looking for Cayetana. She follows Cayetana’s voice to the basement, and sees Cayetana being held hostage in the mirror. Horrified, Miranda rushes out. Nicholson tells Leonardo that he thinks Miranda saw them, and Leonardo orders him to go after her and kill her.
Arturo shares with his brothers his concern- that Cayetana is being held by Leonardo and forced to do his will. He cites Matilde’s presence and refusal to leave Cayetana alone with the girls. Samuel and Flavio ask Arturo what he wants to do. Arturo wants to investigate in person. Flavio replies that if he wants to enter the Del Junco Ranch without anyone seeing him, he’ll need the help of an expert- after all, Flavio had snuck in many a time to see Irina. He explains that there is a long way into the house through the garden that no one watches. The two younger brothers are ready to go, but Arturo stops them- he needs them to stay behind, and will go alone. Samuel doesn’t think that’s wise, but Arturo is adamant. He tells his brothers that no one can know what he’s going to do- but if he does not return within the hour, they are to call Fernandez and Jose Antonio.
Isadora finds out that the jewels are stolen. Furious, Leonardo calls in Eleazar and Matilde. He orders them to return the jewels, and when Eleazar denies having stolen them Isadora threatens Matilde with a gun, causing Eleazar to run out of the room to get the jewels.
Arturo sneaks into the ranch, and makes it into the kitchen. He hears Eleazar coming into the kitchen and hides. Unfortunately, he makes a noise, which makes Eleazar suspicious of someone being in the house. Eleazar uses the reflection off the cabinet to spot Arturo hiding. Instead of calling him out, Eleazar pretends he thinks he heard a cat, and wonders aloud if he should bring Cayetana water in the basement, revealing her location to Arturo.
The episode ends with Cayetana repenting of all her mistakes. She asks forgiveness of Sofia, of Andrea, Irina, and Felipe, and realizes how blind she was. Despondent, Cayetana thinks she will never see her family again. Arturo appears, and gives his word that she will see them again.
