## Plot

Mariluna walks to her car, followed by Gloria. As the former gets in, Gloria orders a taxi, which she gets into and instructs to follow Marisol, who simply stays parked in front of her house.

Tonio calls Gloria, saying that Mariluna is renting a room in his house during school hours. Gloria hangs up on him and they follow Mariluna to a house. Gloria walks towards the house and is met by Mariluna holding a sword to her face.

Mariluna asks Gloria what she wants, but the latter returns the question. Gloria is invited into Mariluna's home.

Demi and Cam talk, as the latter complains that Andre had gotten a new boyfriend very fast. Demi is glad that he found someone, but Cam is jealous that they had done so so fast. Cam feels bad that Andre had called him a terrible person, so he now feels the need to prove that it is the other way around.

Ines approaches Demi, saying she had snagged Gloria's BuJo, which had a picture of her and a gravestone. Demi realizes that that was Gloria's premonition, which she had not written down, so fate had not been sealed yet. Demi mentions that they need to talk to Ines' sister so they could find out what the premonition is.

Ines and Demi try calling the former's sister, who does not pick up. Demi believes that Cinammon is their next best step, but they cannot contact her. Cinammon walks into the room.

Gloria and Mariluna talk about her late husband. When Gloria asks why she is renting out her room, Mariluna says that she is doing it for the box. Gloria asks why she needs it, but is asked what her best color is.

Cinammon talks to Demi and INes, who ask if she had really predicted everything. Cinammon is in shock as well, because she considers herself an intermediate. Cinammon tells them that someone would die, which shocks Ines and Demi. They realize that they need another witch.

Cam calls Demi, saying that he had had enough people time for the day. However, he sees as Andre leaves with his new boyfriend.

Mariluna and Gloria wear matching old pink dresses as they drink tea. Mariluna says that Marisol and her used to dress together. She mentions her husband, who used to be Hery Fordman. Mariluna says that her late husband's car had caught fire and he had died. Gloria helps Mariluna to clean up as she waits for an answer on what she wanted with the box.

Mariluna tells Gloria that she had given the box to her sister and the fact that she had kept it meant that she had not forgotten about her. However, Gloria realizes that the box is cursed. However, Mariluna says that the curse is made up and made them laugh.

Ines is worried about dying while Demi tries calling her sister. Cinammon says that it is not her fault. They walk inside a store with a certified witch. Ines tells the woman that they are worried about their friend and she realizes that they are there for her. The witch says that neither of them would die. The witch says that they are cursed, but they had cursed themselves when they believed the box's curse. However, they might have brought a new curse.

Mariluna takes Gloria home, saying they could play games since she had been lonely lately. Gloria reminds her that she has family, but Mariluna responds by saying that it would be weird for her to visit them again. Gloria tells her to take advantage of her family as she realizes her father is really sick.

As she gets back into her house, Gloria runs into Javier, who tells her to get into the car, as Lucia had gotten her back in. Javier mentions that the bent are hang trials were about to begin.

Demi and Ines talk about the curse. Demi mentions that it was probably nobody, but Ines says that it could be her father who will die. Demi says that they could find some money buried around town in order to find Marisol's money.

Cam runs into Andre, who says that he knows Cam is following him and believes that he is obsessing over his new relationship. Cam says that he is wrong, because he is happy that he is happy. However, Cam says that he does not like that Andre does not like him anymore and wants to be his friend. Andre tells him to start acting like a friend.

At the school gym, the teacher says that they would be trying for a new record which had not been broken for 30 years. Gloria interrupts and tells the coach they should do it together. Gloria holds herself on a bar as she gets one last pull up in and breaks the record.

Rusty waits for Gloria and tells her that he did not want to miss her competition. Gloria apologizes for all that had happened, but is interrupted as Rusty kisses her. When Gloria asks about the other girl, Rusty realizes that Ines had lied to both of them because there is no other girl. Both of them kiss after that.

At home, Ines says she is happy Gloria broke the record and is happy that she had made up with Rusty. However, Gloria tells her to stop and asks her why she had lied to them. Gloria tells her that her actions had consequences and she had now burned down the only bridge she had left.

Ines cries in her room as she packs a bag. She picks up a journal and writes a note, saying that she is her family's curse. When she looks through Tonio's computer, she finds that he had specifically hired an attractive teenage boy who could distract his nieces from their father's cancer.

Ines hands Tonio her laptop, asking Tonio if he is paying him to be Gloria's boyfriend. Tonio tells her not to tell her sister.
