8. Night, Mother

Complete story — includes the ending

As Nicholas prepares to face surgery in the wake of his hit-and-run from Opal, he asks Marisol to marry him, and Rosie, Carmen, and Zoila agree to help her. Meanwhile, Opal comes clean to Ethan about running over Nicholas (using Ethan's car) but exaggerates about what Nicholas told her about his inheritance, of which Ethan is stunned but now wants Opal out of his life and out of the mansion; Ty's jealousy towards Spence over a supposed relationship with Carmen intensifies when he spikes Spence's dish of Carmen's Puerto Rican stew with household cleaner that results in sending Spence to the hospital, thus prompting Spence to kick Ty out, but Ty is determined to make sure this isn't over as his crush on Carmen becomes a Dangerous obsession; Zoila is finding out how fast Genevieve is getting to know Javier after she invites him to dinner, and learns from Genevieve that she's suffering from kidney failure; Rosie is learning that Miguel is learning foul language and suspects Lucinda, who is furious and led to believe that Didi cut her off as Kenneth's Power of Attorney even though Reggie is the one responsible, as he influences Kenneth to kick Lucinda out by claiming that Rosie betrayed her, then turns around and tells Rosie that Didi is the one responsible and plans to kick her out soon (despite being the other way around when Reggie told Didi that contradicts what he told Rosie); Valentina informs Adrian and Evelyn that she's staying out of their marital problems as Adrian installs cameras to catch Evelyn and Tony together, but after Adrian asks Valentina to follow the two in the car he catches them but doesn't do anything to stop it. Finally, as she watches Marisol and Nicholas say their "I Do's" from the hospital bed, Opal's flashback about what happened after Dahlia's death adds another puzzle to the mystery as Opal stops Nicholas from calling the police and threatens to expose him as a murderer unless he agrees to provide for her and Ethan for the rest of their lives. It's also revealed that the five-year-old Ethan was a witness to covering this murder.
