Love You to Death – Season 1 Episode 4 1

Meanwhile, Marta finds herself on the brink of eviction from her apartment. Her parents deliver a rehearsed speech, leaving no room for argument. However, when Marta reveals her pregnancy as a last-ditch effort to stay, they accuse her of falsehood—until her sister verifies the news. Embarrassed to admit she's a single mother, Marta hatches a plan, ropes Raul into pretending to be her long-term beau.

This charade involves amassing a variety of photos together to authenticate their lengthy relationship. Back at Marta's place, Raul finds himself in the kitchen, cooking up a storm to pull off a convincing dinner date. Marta offers him pointers on the art of kissing, leading to some lively exchanges, particularly when Raul jests about the need for pre-dinner practice.

Tragedy strikes, however, when Marta ingests nutmeg—to which she is allergic—and her face begins to swell. In a panic, she realizes she can't locate her allergy medication, just as her family arrives for dinner. Raul, unfamiliar with the apartment's layout, finds himself flustered and out of his depth, making the evening all the more cringe-worthy.

As they indulged in their meal, the duo attempted to devise a plan in hushed tones, unaware that Ana, ever perceptive, saw right through their thin veneer of secrecy. Raul's hilarious yet bizarre excuse for forgetting his toothbrush provided a moment of levity, but the atmosphere swiftly soured when his phone began buzzing incessantly, prompting him to babble incoherently about imaginary armless dogs.

Pulling her sister aside, Ana was astounded to discover that Marta's motive for keeping her beau around was partly to secure her tenancy in the apartment. Marta's mother, having already pieced together the puzzle, reluctantly conceded that Marta could retain her living space without needing to shackle herself to someone solely for that reason. As for Marta's father, he remained blissfully oblivious, a figure of comical ignorance.

With newfound resolve, Marta urged Raul to stick around. The pair's bond deepened as they spent countless hours immersed in movies and late-night conversations beneath the stars. Inevitably, their camaraderie blossomed into a tender kiss, followed by a passionate encounter.

In the dead of night, Raul awoke to a barrage of messages flooding his phone, having earlier been interrupted by its insistent buzzing. To his dismay, he learned that his entire family was now aware of his cancer diagnosis. Steeling himself for an emotional tempest, he rang his mother's doorbell, bracing for the storm that was sure to follow.
