Pedro.
Pedro!
Wake up!
I've got a surprise for you.
It's Pedro, your son.
He's here to see you.
Dad...
It's me.
It's a matter of days.
You can stay here as long as you want.
Promise me you'll make an effort to be happy.
I'll get the ranch back.
No, Pedro.
You almost got killed.
You lost your child.
Go back to your wife.
I promise I will, Dad.
Forget your uncle's actions.
Swear you'll do that, Pedro.
I'll do the right thing.
Pedro!
But...
Thank God!
You're fine!
LIKE WATER FOR CHOCOLATE

After Mr. Pedro's death,
the following months went by in different ways.
I'll catch you!
Tita's hours were filled with laughter and games.
An unknown
inner feeling of peace got into her.
"Disturbing his dreams,
he held his only treasure four times in his hand,
and four times it slipped through his fingers
while his dream went away,
and he woke up to his unfortunate reality.
Already wide awake..."
However, for Pedro,
time went by slower than usual.
There was no rush.
As if he had nowhere to go.
For Gertrudis and her group,
the chaos of their country
and the threat that meant Nicolás sudden flight
had forced them to stop their fight.
For the time being,
they needed to hide, find food and survive .
Meanwhile,
after barely surviving the violent attack at her ranch,
Elena was getting worse and worse.
And Fina had no choice
but to forget her own tragedy in order to take care of her.
After Pedro's decision to forget Tita,
his soul left his body behind.
Nothing in this world made sense without her.
As for Rosaura,
she was determined to make her husband love her.
Get a plate.
Time continued to pass.
Sometimes it helped
to heal the wounds, to make things less painful.
Some other times,
it left deep scars.
The tension Nicolás' flight had caused between Gertrudis and Juan diminished
when they were at a safe place.
When is the wedding, Doctor?
Once Tita feels better, she'll say when.
We're in no rush.
With each passing month,
Rosaura tried to erase
anything that would help remember Tita.
Those were hard times,
and that year, winter came harder than ever.

Except in some places.
It seemed Tita was making a fresh start.
However,
she couldn't help wondering if that life was really hers.
John?
Yes?
When will be the right time to get married?
Really?
Really?
Yes.
Delfino?
It's your mother, Miss Tita.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I missed you.
I'm so glad to see you!
Likewise.
Are you all right?
Shall we?
Just go check in on her.
I'm still not ready to see her.
Why are you here?
Who called you?
Mrs. Elena,
you're not fine.
You need a doctor.
How dare you set foot in my house?
You had no right to take my daughter.
Please.
Tita was completely dehydrated.
On the verge of death.
She shouldn't have been put in that situation.
Tita is sick in mind and soul.
You know nothing.
Since when a doctor is allowed to take a young girl with him?
Tita's staying with me as my patient.
Now, please, let me examine you.
Well, I am her mother, and I never authorized that.
As soon as I get out of here, I'll take her back to where she was.
And you'll have to explain everything.
Let me see your hand, please.
So she lured you too.
Be careful, Doctor.
Tita can turn your life into a calvary.
You know how Pedro Múzquiz ended up.
Right.
It's a pity what happened to him.
She'll never stop loving him.
Don't touch me!
I have to examine your legs.
Today they're swollen. It's fine.
I gave birth three times without help, this is nothing.
Mrs. Elena.
Can you move your legs?
Hi.
-Crispín. -Yep?
Have you seen Juan?
He's been out there all morning like a rooster.
How are you?
Tired of running away.
Tired of hiding.
I'm sure we'll be receiving orders soon.
We must be patient.
I don't even know why we're fighting.
What's the use of so many dead people?
Things are back to Porfirio's times.
We're back to square one.
People are not satisfied, not yet.
There's so much hunger and poverty.
We must get organized and get back to fighting, you'll see.
To make things worse, that fucking Múzquiz
is making all of his fucking thuds look for us.
If they find us with no ammo,
with no food, we won't make it.
I carry the burden of so many dead people.
We carry that burden.
Why do you take the blame?
It's so easy for you to say that.
And here we go again!
Letting Pedro go was a mistake, but I couldn't stop him.
He's one of yours, why couldn't you?
One of my mine?
If Pedro is one of mine, that Nicolás traitor is one of yours,
so what do you mean?
We may be fighting the same fight,
but we're not the same, Gertrudis.
Don't fool yourself.
Being born in a ranch doesn't make me one of them,
and you know it.
Don't despise me for being aristocratic and not of humble origins.
Guys, I dare you to cross the cornfield!
Tita!
Tita!
Tita!
Tita!
You must come.
She does look bad.
I gave her a sedative.
She won't wake up.
Your mother's spine is broken.
I'm afraid her nerves are damaged.
Tita.
She'll never walk again.
And most probably she has a kidney infection.
How can we help her?
All we can do is go to Eagle Pass to get some morphine.
That can help ease the pain.
We should help strengthen her and hopefully, take her to a hospital
to have her kidneys examined.
I'll do it.
You don't have to do that, Tita.
Fina can feed her.
And she can give her all the medicine I prescribe.
She's my mother, she needs me.
I'll do it.
I'll be back as soon as possible.
Come on!
Come on!
