* Teresa arranges for people to keep Camila safe in the jail despite arrangements that James has already made. Teresa meets with Devon, while James meets with Boaz. Camila states that she is happier with what Teresa has achieved. James is hurt but holds back and does not engage in playing Camila's 'divide and conquer' game.
* James and Teresa have a serious conversation about whose loyalty lies where.
* Epifanio meets with Boaz, Cortez, and Reynaldo to announce that Boaz is going to have total control over the Sinaloa cartel and Cortez will be his operational partner, while Reynaldo supplies the Colombian cocaine.

* Teresa visits Camila in prison again, telling her about the contract she found in Kelly Anne's house. She lies and says that Cole put everything under Camila's name and that she must be careful with him. Camila doesn't know why he would do that or why Kelly Anne would help Teresa.
