In the penultimate episode of the season, 'Now and Then' brings back its previous briskness. It also makes a terribly bold choice with a certain character, one that has the capacity to make or break the final outcome. But it would be wrong to complain about this choice as prior to this, the mystery had turned into repetitive tedium. Marcos remains the show's least likable and most uninteresting character but at the same time, is part of the show's most believable tender sequence up until now. In 2000, Sully is notified about Marcos's fingerprints being on Jessica Thompson's car. As it turns out, he too went to check if she was alive, though after Pedro and in the process, left his fingerprints. When Sully visits Marcos's home, a terrified Marcos evades him and runs away to Sofia. There, he requests her to leave with him for Colombia, which she does. At the last moment though, he reneges out of nervousness, enraging Sofia. Pedro is shown trying to kill himself by drowning, owing to the duress of the secret. But a vision of Alejandro saves him and he confesses to Ana that he accidentally murdered Jessica Thompson. In the present day, Flora's breast cancer has metastasized, so she has to undergo a mastectomy. Belinda continues working on the case. She goes to Hugo, who has woken up from his coma, and asks him about how Daniela could've procured the blackmail money given her financial status. Hugo denies having any knowledge about that. At the same time, he also tells her that on the night of Daniela's murder, she forcefully asked him to leave with the bag containing the blackmail money, late at night. On his way out, he noticed a black SUV with a teddy bear sticker on the rear windshield, parked outside their house. Belinda's investigation leads her to the police archives where she discovers that two crucial pieces of evidence were reported missing, which included tape no. 35 from Daniela's videotape collection. Before undergoing her surgery, Flora visits Hugo and informs him that his biological mother didn't die in the accident but was actually murdered. Marcos notifies Sofia that the two of them are out, at which she sneaks into Arturo's house. Without the alarm system, she easily reaches the safe but as she is stealing the cash, she notices Daniela's tape no.35 hidden there.
