Plot[]
In this episode, the the group find themselves trapped in a nerve-wracking situation that rapidly spins out of control. The story begins with the group—Cayetana, Rebeka, Guzmán—realizing that intruders are attempting to break into the house, specifically targeting the cocaine they have in their possession. The tension escalates as they try to figure out what to do.
Cayetana is the first to notice the danger, pointing out the moving curtains and expressing her fear. Rebeka, trying to keep everyone calm, tells her, "Cayetana, first, we need to stop getting hysterical." However, the situation quickly becomes too overwhelming to handle rationally.
Rebeka insists that no one is to give up the drugs, stating, "That cocaine is paying for the future of my mom and me, so you have no say in where it goes tonight." This assertion causes friction between them, with tensions rising as each of them tries to assert control over the situation.
As the intruders get closer, the group scrambles to lock doors and turn off lights. Rebeka tries to take charge, but the others are panicked, especially as the effects of the mushrooms they’ve consumed start to amplify their anxiety. Guzmán attempts to keep a level head, but even he is overwhelmed by the pressure, saying, "This place is fucking loaded with cocaine, and there are two guys here with pistols."
Cayetana's fear becomes palpable, as she nearly breaks down, "I'm so scared... I just wanna go home," reflecting the overall sense of dread in the group. As the situation escalates, the group members argue more, each showing their own brand of fear or bravado.
As the intruders begin to break in, the group's panic turns to desperate action. Cayetana, who had been terrified throughout, suddenly snaps and grabs a knife, threatening to stab anyone who tries to stop her from handing over the drugs. "You don't know what I'm capable of!" she yells, her voice trembling with fear and determination.
Guzmán, trying to regain control, shouts, "We're in the house, motherfuckers!" as the intruders press forward. The group is pushed to the brink, with Cayetana threatening, "I'll fucking do it!" as she faces off against the intruders, while Rebeka struggles to maintain any semblance of order.
A fight ensues, during which Cayetana accidentally stabs Guzman, a moment of horror that leaves her and the others in shock. "I didn't mean to... I swear that was an accident," she cries, overwhelmed by the gravity of what she's done. As she pulls the knife outs they realize that Cayetana stabbed the stacks of cocaine bars Guzman was holding. The chaos reaches its peak when the intruders finally forces their way in. They plan a murder scene to scare off the intruders.
Cayetana, deeply affected by what happened, vows never to engage in such dangerous behavior again. "Never again. I'll never do anything like that again," she says, clearly traumatized by the night's events.
As the dust settles, the group is left to deal with the fallout of the night's events. Rebeka, shaken but resolute, decides to confront her mother about the dangerous path they've been on, saying, "I'll go tell my old lady she can either never deal this shit again, or she's never going to see me ever again."
The episode ends with a mix of relief and exhaustion as the friends try to process what they've just been through. Guzmán, trying to lighten the mood, suggests they have a drink to celebrate surviving the ordeal, while Cayetana, still in shock, tries to understand the impact of the mushrooms and everything that transpired.
