I'm frustrated, guys. So frustrated, so let me explain why.
We start with a flashback of young Jane receiving her first laptop, exclaiming, "Now I can write anywhere, any time!" I'm like, same. “Anyway, she isn’t very inspired, but when waiting on the bus, she sees a man with a top hat, and the hat flies off his head.
She then becomes inspired. Flash forward to present Jane. She wakes up with a start, suddenly inspired to write her novel. Words flow like water.
Meanwhile, Xo is happy that Glamma isn't in a great place with Rogelio because she'd known about his father's gayness. We cut to Glamma making breakfast for Rogelio in order to make it up to him, and we discover she has worked with Rogelio on his career for many years, so she asks Rogelio to ask his father to not leave her. Unfortunately, Glampa is pretty happy, and wants them to stop interfering.
Back at the Villanueva house, Mateo is crawling for the first time, but in his trail, tugs a cord attached to Jane's laptop, and it spills, along with a pitcher of orange juice. Tough, but at the same time Rafael reawakens after being drugged by his mother, to find Michael and Susanna watching him. They are already aware of his mother's status as a drug lord.
Apparently, Elena is after the same dragon pendant they traded for Mateo. Michael says he gave it to Nadine to give to Rose, but Elena says Rose never got it. Michael decides he needs to come clean about the whole situation and tells Susanna, but she's obviously not happy.
At the same time, Jane goes to the computer store to fix her laptop, but there's a chance the files can't be recovered. She is noticeably upset, but the computer guy reassures her. Lina, who hitched along, says he was flirting with her, but Jane doesn't really think so, which initiates an argument about the state of Jane's love life. The computer guy then interrupts and wonders if she backed up her files, but the only thing Jane did was print out a draft of her story, which she'd thrown away.
Rafael comes over later to lend her a laptop and while he's there catches her up about his mother being a drug lord. He doesn't want her to worry though and sends her off to write. She struggles to do just that at a nearby coffee shop when a guy stops by thinking he's there for a date with Jane. Jane soon discovers Lina set up a Cinder (Tinder, lol) account for her.
Meanwhile, Rogelio catches up with father and realizes he can't ask him to not leave his mother. Though, they do have a touching heart to heart where Rogelio realizes he should hire Glamma as his manager to help her cope with everything.
Jane returns to Rafael and Mateo where she tells him about her blind date. He's upset though, and admits that to her (though over text, stupid Rafael). Rafael believes he's ruined things between them, and he has, at least romantically. Cue me:
Anyway, I'm holding out hope. But that hope is slowly getting crushed because Rafael has to leave to visit Petra because she's in the hospital. Apparently there was some bleeding, but the babies are fine. Petra just has to stay on bed rest for the next week. Meanwhile, Jane tries to recreate the files she lost, but nothing is coming back to her. She distracts herself by looking at the profile Lina set up for her, and after some readjustments and chatting, she has a date set up for the next day. Things go swimmingly with this scientist guy for Jane. Then there's me:
Back in Michael's side of town, Susanna has written a report of all of Michael's wrongdoings, but Michael convinces her not to turn it in. Susanna wants to know everything that happened in the six months he was with Nadine. The only thing he can report is that he met with her on the beach every month until the last month she had a location to report. She accidentally cut him with a beer bottle, and then got shot. The end.
At the same time, Jane asks her Professor for an extension because of the spilled orange juice. He tells her not to concentrate on what she's lost but to look forward. Meanwhile, Petra is giving the nurse Rafael hired a hard time, so Rafael ends up staying with Petra instead. Back at the Villanueva house, Jane talks with Lina about the scientist guy, but when going to find his profile, she discover he's blocked her. Apparently, Jane misinterpreted the situation.
Things with Rogelio and his telenovela aren't so great, seeing as how his mother is very controlling as a manager. When she upsets the very popular guest star, Rogelio confides in Xiomara about his problems. Meanwhile, Jane goes to a bar in order to flirt. Coincidentally, computer guy is there. After some flirting they decide to go to a skate park, but she falls off the skate board and injures herself.
At the hotel, Petra is pestering Rafael, but when she reveals she's afraid for the pregnancy because of her previous miscarriage, he softens up. Meanwhile, Jane is bandaged up by computer guy, then one things leads to another, and they kiss. But then he reveals he has a girlfriend, and Jane immediately regrets her decision.
Jane confides in her family that she doesn't know how to date with a son and soon realizes she can't just date casually, but she doesn't feel like starting over. But then Xo gets a frantic text from Rogelio about his mother driving him crazy, and she's there to calm him down. Rogelio decides to fire Glamma. Afterwards, Jane is still trying to write, but Abuela interrupts and says she shouldn't give up on the dating life.
Back at the telenovela, upon finding Glamma distraught, Xo says she was the one who told Rogelio to fire her. But Glamma reveals she heard Xo talking to Rogelio, calming him down, saying he shouldn't fire her. The next morning at the Villanueva house, Jane creates another online dating profile, this time with honest information. She, however, doesn't get any matches but does find out her computer is ready. She sits on the bus to the store, when lo and behold, the man with the top hat is there as well. Inspired, she misses her stop at the computer store and writes.
Back with Michael, we find him contemplating what Nadine told him, and he looks at the scar she made with the beer bottle. In good old spy-movie fashion, he cuts it back open to find a computer chip in it.
We return to the set of the telenovela where Glampa and Glamma are forced to reunite, finally on good terms with one another. Then, we jump back to Michae,l who shows Susanna and his cop boss the chip. Then, we're back to the set of the telenovela where Glamma confides in Rogelio and believes he should marry Xiomara. Jane overhears, and I guess inspired by the romance, dreams of making out with her professor.
But before then, Rafael and Petra discussed baby names, he was sweet, Petra said he wasn't a monster, he touched her stomach. Ya-da, ya-da, the gif from above can be applied here as well. Also, Abuela googled someone named Pablo. Is he the priest guy from before? Because we never heard back from him. Whatever.
What did you guys think of this week's episode?
