Nicholas finally comes clean to Evelyn and Adrian about how he accidentally killed Barrett, (Dahlia told him about her affair while he was driving and did not see Barrett) which causes an enraged Adrian to slice Nicholas with a knife. While Evelyn keeps Adrian composed, Marisol tells them that Nicholas will turn himself over to the police. The confession also brings the Powells closer together as they both decide to forgive each other for all the wrongdoings that have occurred. Spence asks Rosie to marry him and she accepts, but thanks to his divorce and losing his job, Rosie has to find a way to cut back, and Carmen's job is one of them. After Carmen is fired, she discovers that her demo was passed on to a guy who happens to be the husband of a female record executive after she slept with him.

Valentina is offered an internship in New York but Remi decides not to follow her because of his mom's illness.

At the wedding, Ty fires multiple shots at the crowd but not before being spotted by Carmen. The episode ends on a cliffhanger as the last scene shows Rosie dropping her blood-covered bouquet, unknown as to who was actually shot. |
