Selfies

Nico’s parents worry about their child. Ari drives a car near the club. Could she have been the one to hit Ivan? Or is this a red herring?

Ari and Nico are back in the present, trying to catch up after football practice. They go for dinner together, but things don’t work out.

Las Encinas is on edge the next day, as the boys who raped Isa are there, corroborating their story together and making it seem like Isa made up the whole thing. Given Isa’s reputation for being in the center of attention, Sara sides with the boys. ..

The Cruz kiss from the club has been trending online for a while now. Some people believe that it was fabricated, while others think that it really happened. Raul believes that the whole thing was created as some sort of deepfake, but others think that Patrick may have been driven by Cruz’s fame when he did this video. Patrick decides to try and explain this and does a live video, saving Cruz’s reputation by incriminating himself and claiming that he was driven by Cruz’s fame.

After the video, Patrick calls Ivan and admits that he was right. Patrick didn’t believe in Ivan’s love and he’s ruined it now. However a silver lining here is that he at least helped make things a little better with Cruz. Patrick thanks Ivan for being his real first love.

After the shooting, Cruz speaks to his son and admits that Patrick did all of this and took the fall specifically because he loves Ivan and doesn’t want to lose him. Ivan refuses to believe it, eventually telling Cruz that all he ever wanted was a good father who was there for him. ..

With the pressure of the public on her, Isa decides to take her own life.

Didac, a bouncer at the club, speaks to Javi in the toilets, asking if Isa is a “screamer”. When Javi nonchalantly points out she was passed out and couldn’t even stand up, Javi essentially incriminates himself.

Didac happened to have recorded the whole thing and shows Isa, apologizing for not believing her. He’s going to send her over the audio and help her get justice.

Nico and Ari end up going back to their room after a good night, but Ari ruins everything when she hesitates taking Nico’s boxers off. He hurriedly grabs his clothes and leaves, bemoaning that she’s not as progressive as he thought she was.

Sara posts an apology on social media for getting the rape allegations wrong and jumping to conclusions. This causes her to lose 1.5 million followers, which annoys Raul. This leads to a massive argument between the pair. ..

Cruz announces that he kissed Patrick on the cheek and that it was not a romantic kiss. He clarifies that the video is real, but he was not the instigator.

The Episode Review

Cruz’s bombshell revelation that he has evidence that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia has likely had a significant impact on the future of both Javi and Hugo. Likewise, Didac is likely to face consequences for his role in the audio evidence he provided to Cruz.

Elite has been a decent watch so far, although it’s not as good as the early seasons were. There’s enough soapy drama to keep things watchable all the same, but what will happen next is anyone’s guess.
