So I watched the season finale SEVERAL times, and I’m still left with questions as to what happened! I think through Google I’ve answered some of them though . . .

So first some of the minor stories . . . .

Valentina was crushed by Remi’s sudden departure. She didn’t understand why he would leave her? It didn’t take long for Zoila to confess it was her who asked him to leave without her. Valentina was not happy nor forgiving.

Odessa came home from the hospital and learned about Alejandro. She always had feelings for him, and is glad to know she’ll never lose him to another woman. Oh dear! Meanwhile Alejandro’s team decided to stage a fake marriage between him and Carmen to keep his cover, and they offered Carmen an album deal to get her on board. They also said a “irreconcilable differences” divorce in a year or two. Sam didn’t seem to like the idea of waiting around, and Odessa REALLY didn’t like the idea of this marriage at all. My guess is one of them will blow Alejandro’s cover to the tabloids.

Spence continued to push Rosie to marry him, and he wanted to adopt her son. She however felt what Peri did for her was wonderful, and she couldn’t do that to her. She wanted to be a good person, so she had to give him up. Unfortunately Peri found out everything, unbeknownst to Spence or Rosie.

Taylor survived the gunshot, her baby did not. She wanted a conflicted Michael to tell Marisol everything he knew about Philippe. Lawyer-client privilege be damned, Taylor said he killed their child and she wants him to pay! He started talking . . .

The Powells also found out that Philippe is the one who killed Flora, and they concocted a plan to make him pay. They hosted an engagement party for him and Genevieve and set their plan in motion. Meanwhile Marisol came clean with the other girls, and they too set a plan to get Philippe to confess on tape (which I’m pretty sure would not be admissible in court).

At the party the maids worked to trap Philippe. Marisol cornered him in the “sex room” while Rosie worked to tape him from behind Adrienne’s secret mirror. He knew who she was, and she told him that Michael told her everything. We saw a run down of what happened, how he confronted Flora, how he stabbed her and framed Marisol’s son Eddie, and then how he confessed all to Michael. She told him she was going to the DA, but he realized she was bluffing. She wouldn’t be telling him this if she didn’t have evidence. Before anything else could happen, and it looked like Marisol was in danger from him, Evelyn had a guard show Marisol out. Rosie left too, and then Adrienne came in to confront Philippe. They too knew what he’d done, and they were pissed that he killed their maid! Adrienne poisoned him and then threw him out the window and into the pool below, a nod to Flora’s death in the first episode.

The cops were suspicious of the Powell’s story. They claimed Philippe confessed and committed suicide, but it seems he was dead before he hit the pool. How they figured this out so quickly I don’t know. That was a fast autopsy! Rosie, Carmen and Zoila all came forward and said it was true, they were picking up outside the room and heard a man yell “I did it, I killed Flora.” Then they said they heard the splash. The cops said they’d need to let the DA know, he’d need to hear this. The Powells just gave the maids a look, probably wondering why they did what they did since they knew Philippe maid no teary confession for them to hear.

The show ended with the girls having lunch in the park, with a now free Eddie. Everything was happiness, puppies and unicorns . . . .until the cops showed up and dragged Rosie off!

I was initially confused. Why did they arrest Rosie? Did Peri call the INS? Or is she suspected in killing Philippe? I googled what was on the policemen’s jackets, the word “ICE,” and found out it is Immigration and Customs Enforcement. So I am assuming Peri called the feds on her out of spite.

I guess I was looking for a bigger cliffhanger. I still wonder if Philippe really did kill Flora? If he didn’t, why did he confess to Michael? Was he protecting someone else? Why did Remi feel the need to suddenly flee the country like he did? Ahhhhh! Well I will be looking forward to next season.
