El Final del Paraíso spoilers for Friday, October 18th relate to trouble with “Agent Valeria Montes” (Kimberly Reyes), jealousy for Doña Hilda Santana (Catherine Siachoque), and a blood bath begins. There’s also a rescue attempt for our MIA, and Esteban Calvo (Manuel Gómez) tries to keep Yésica “La Diabla” Beltrán (Reyes) in the dark. If you missed it, let’s catch up with an El Final del Paraíso recap.
El Final del Paraíso spoilers: Talk!
Dayana “La Demonia” Muriel (Elianis Garrido) is brought into the conference room where “Agent Valeria” is waiting, alongside Catalina Santana (Carmen Villalobo), Vanessa Salazar (Estefanía Gómez), and Lizeth Muriel (Margarita Torres). Demonia almost looks smug a moment, but then she goes a little crazy after Cata Grande asks her to talk. Demonia jumps “Agent Valeria” and demands she talk.
To protect her secret, Diabla shoots Valeria right in the chest. Everyone is shocked, but Lizeth almost seems pleased. You can see a hint of a smirk on her face at seeing this. Diabla makes a big show of holding her neck and going on about self-defense.
El Final del Paraíso spoilers: Suspended
Catalina, now that the so-called threat to her agent is over, finally jumps into action. Seriously. No one bothered to step in to help “Valeria” at the first sign of trouble? #Fail.
Also a #fail is “Valeria”. At least in Cata Grande’s eyes. We sort of think so, too. Cata Grande is furious at what happened, and lectures “Valeria” that they don’t handle things this way. She’s just taken out a very important witness and is suspended until further notice. “Valeria” goes on about it being Demonia’s life or hers, but Cata Grande doesn’t want to hear it. She later tells Vanessa that she found it weird that Demonia never took her eyes off “Valeria” from the second she stepped in the room.
El Final del Paraiso spoilers: Good news
Following turning in her badge and storming out, Diabla calls Aáron “Mano Negra” Mondejo (Juan Pablo Gamboa). She tells him she’s got good news—Demonia is dead. She was about to rat them out. She explains what happened, and he is pleased. Diabla tells him she is confident this will be a clear self-defense case, but we’re not so sure.
With her successful elimination of the threat to their organization, Mano Negra is even more trusting. He wants Diabla to be his eyes on the land, and asks him to track their flight.
El Final del Paraiso spoilers: Goodbye, Daniel
While they talk, Mano Negra gives Diabla another assignment. He’s about to be exposed by Daniel Cerón Venegas (Juan Pablo Llano) and wants him eliminated. Diabla tells him to consider it done. She would love to get rid of such a troublemaker.
She tells Calvo that she wants his son, who he’d just convinced her to allow to work for them, to do it. He says it’s no problem, and passes the news along to Ívan Calvo (Carlos Benítez).

He, Calvo, and Natalia Bérmudez (Linda Baldrich) later watch Daniel standing outside the newspaper office. They’re sitting in Calvo’s vehicle, but Ívan can’t bring himself to do the job. Calvo is disappointed, and gets out of the car and takes care of Daniel himself. Why he didn’t just do it from inside the car like Ívan was going to, we don’t know.
El Final del Paraíso spoilers: And Conde
Also dead today is Roberto Conde (Alejandro Martínez). Earlier in the episode, Andrés Umaña (Bayardo Ardila) tried to get Conde off, but Conde told him to forget it. He is in trouble, because Conde has told about his part in all this, too. Big mistake from the word “go”.
His days were numbered as soon as he flipped on Mano Negra, and today, that time has run out. A cop on Mano Negra’s payroll visits with some food. Conde isn’t hungry, but the man says he can’t leave until Conde eats. Not noticing anything odd, he sits down to eat as told, but it turns out the food was poisoned.
When Alfonso Berrio (Leonardo Acosta) stops by to visit, he finds Conde convulsing on the floor. He rushes to Conde’s aid, but it’s too late. He tells Berrio that Mano Negra killed him before he finally succumbs to the poison.
El Final del Paraíso spoilers: Team Effort
With the deaths of several people connected to this, Emilia (Marianella González), Edmundo “Sombra” Dorantes Borrero (Mauricio Cujar), and Zoraya Fuentes (Eileen Roca) are nervous. They see this as proof that Mano Negra is just too powerful, and thinks he’s unbeatable. Santiago Sanín (Roberto Manrique) refuses to believe that. So does Rogelio (Roberto Greco).
Rogelio calls Sombra immediately following Daniel’s murder and gets him to agree to hide Rogelio and Emilia out for a while. Santiago, with everyone so nervous, gets them to agree to him calling Cata Grande. He breaks the news about Daniel, which shocks and upsets her. Cata Grande promises that she will help.
Meanwhile, Berrio and Lucrecia Olivares (Eliana Diaosa) are also feeling the pressure. With all these deaths, they realize that everything they were told about their enemy is true. She believes the only way they can keep ahead of Mano Negra is to partner with Sombra and the rest.
El Final del Paraiso spoilers: High stakes
Ívan’s failure is a huge deal to Calvo. He later lectures his son over the trouble he has caused for Calvo by not doing the job. If Diabla finds out, they’re both dead.
Given that, and the fact this is his son, Calvo is not going to tell Diabla what happened. He’s even willing to give Ívan another chance to prove himself. However, this time he needs to come through. Natalia promises that if Ívan won’t do it the next time, she will.
El Final del Paraiso spoilers: Manipulation
As for Diabla, she is busy manipulating Albeiro Marín (Fabián Ríos) some more. She comes to his room and cries on his shoulder. “Valeria” claims that Diabla is forcing her to marry Berrio against his will. She is miserable and doesn’t want to do this—mostly because she loves Albeiro.
El Final del Paraiso spoilers: Coward
Ramón “Moncho” Montecarlo (Mauricio Mauad) continues to whine about their time in the sky, which is annoying Mano Negra. He says he was wrong about Moncho. He’s nothing more than a coward. Mariana Sanín Santana (Stephania Duque) later advises Moncho to calm down and stop drinking like a fish if he wants to live.
El Final del Paraiso spoilers: Rescue fail
While Doña Hilda waits for word about her daughter, Marcela Pinzón (Giovanna Andrade) tries to calm her down. Doña Hilda wants to call Cata Grande, but Marcela says the DEA will have no jurisdiction in this, but she can tell her what’s going on if it calms her down. Doña Hilda decides it would be better to talk to Albeiro, as he’s Catalina Marín Santana’s (Carolina Gaitán) father. Marcela has the number to reach him, which seems to upset Doña Hilda. Marcela explains it’s just because of the child, just in case there is an emergency then calls Albeiro for her. Before he and Hilda can talk, though, “Valeria” arrived, so he had to hide the phone.
Meanwhile, the rescue is on. Unfortunately for our MIA, Mariana anticipated this, and her hostages are already gone. All that’s left in the building are the cages, as well as the backpacks that Cata 2 and Hernán Darío “Nachi” Bayona (Juan Pablo Urrego) were carrying. The PI and some cops start gathering evidence, but there’s a problem (and possibly more muertos)…
El Final del Paraíso spoilers: Behind his back
Mariana had ordered someone to blow the building up, and only one of the cops appeared to be in the possible safe range at the time. He was the one ordered to get those backpacks to a lab for testing. We’ll see if he (or anyone else) survived.
For now, it appears our MIA are safe. Mariana had ordered all this done in response to Demonia turning herself in and has been organizing it all behind Mano Negra’s back.
He learns the truth after hearing her talk about something blowing up. He finally gets the truth out of her, and isn’t pleased she was working behind his back. He is, however, glad to know what she was doing. He thinks her hostages will be the perfect thing to put pressure on Albeiro, who’s supposed to participate in a fight that day, as well as putting the pressure on Cata Grande.
El Final del Paraíso spoilers: Blackmail
In other news, Joana (Bárbara Najas) continues to prove how totally unbalanced she is by threatening Salvatore Miranda (Martín Karpan). She’s upset that he has decided to fire her, despite her insisting she couldn’t leave him alone through everything he’s dealing with. She’s so upset, she threatens to show a video of her and Salvatore having sex to Dona Hilda if he follows through on firing her.
El Final del Paraíso spoilers: Standoff

Finally, Aurelio “El Titi” Jaramillo (Gregorio Pernía) is at a crossroads. He’s never lost a woman before to another man, much less to a woman. But La Cuina (Jimena Galvis) is hot for Pilar (Margarita Reyes) and is determined to take her from him. He walks in on Cuina about to kiss Pilar and throws a bit of a fit. Cuina is pissed, and thinks that he has no manners to walk in like that. They get into it a bit, with Cuina pointing out that they haven’t delivered what they promised yet. She pulls a gun on him, and Pilar gets in front of Titi. She says she’s going to do whatever Cuina wants.
