The time has come for Robles to fulfil the mission that Abelardo entrusted to him. The police found Salvador's confession video, dated August 4, a few days before Frida's death. Marcela believes that Rafaela knows everything.

Overwhelmed by the chaos, Tomás goes to the police and seeks support at his cousin Diego's house. Rafaela begs Abelardo to leave her family alone and reminds her that, although she hates her, they are her brothers.

The police have the conclusive proof they need. Salvador proposes to Rafaela to turn herself in, and they have them cornered. Prosecutor Zambrano has a proposal for him. Abelardo and Enrique become accomplices of a sinister plan.

Rafaela, believing Salvador has betrayed her, prepares her revenge. The Prosecutor offers to reduce Salvador's sentence in exchange for him testifying against his wife, but he will not.

Rafaela changes her strategy, and doubts arise everywhere. In the interrogation room, she breaks down in tears before confessing that her husband admitted to the crime before taking his life.

The police launch a massive search for Rafaela by land and air. Rafaela escapes and finds refuge in the Pons family's abandoned building. Cabrera announces to the Pons that there is evidence of a murder, not a suicide.
