Jane the Rafael Virgin
Jane: So, on our next date, I want you to go as dark as you want, and I'm gonna get as judgy as I want, and then we're gonna have dark, judgmental sex.
Rafael: I am so in.
Jane and Rafael try to be friends; Petra and Jane try to overcome the difficulties of working together; Rogelio thinks he has post-partum depression; Alba tells Jane why she turned down Jorge's proposal.
Tropes in this episode:
- Adam Westing: Brooke Shields plays River Fields, a slightly exaggerated, Soapbox Sadie version of herself.
- Artistic License – Biology: In-Universe: Rogelio thinks he has Post-Partum Depression because he was feeling down whilst taking care of his baby daughter Baby. PPD is related to the changes in female hormones just after giving birth and therefore cannot happen to men.
- Auto Erotica: Jane wants to have sex with Rafael in his car, but he doesn't want to go through with it, because those in a car.
- Erotic Dream: Petra has a sex dream about Jane Ramos.
- Leno Device: Rogelio and River appear on The Talk, whose panel of hosts also appear as themselves.
- Longing Look: Alba and Jorge, when Jorge sees her with Ronaldo.
- Offing the Offspring: Discussed. Petra realises that Magda was actually trying to kill her using the balcony that Anezka fell off from.
- Power Hair: Petra's new haircut, which she wants Jane to talk about in their book.
- Scenery Censor: Aside from Jane's head blocking Rafael's text, there's also the sex shop. A mannequin wearing fishnet stockings blocks off the view of the device Jane shows Alba. (Technically, the vibrator never appears on screen, though the show is nonetheless able to make its nature explicit.)
- Shower of Love: Jane and Rafael’s long-awaited first time happens in a very hot scene in which they do a shower together.
- Their First Time: Jane, The Rafael Virgin, finally consummates with her baby daddy. (The baby in question is now entering kindergarten.)
