Episode 5 of "Who Killed Sara" kicks off with a haunting prison flashback for Alex, where he's mercilessly beaten down, only to find solace in the form of Carlos Sanchez, who vows to be his guardian angel from that moment on, after eight long years of solitude. A devastating blow soon follows as Alex learns of his mother's demise, shattering the lie that Cesar had been funding her medical treatment.
In the present tense, Elisa and Alex share a contemplative coffee (the empty cup a testament to their engrossment), dissecting the hit-and-run case with a meticulous eye. Meanwhile, our culprit, Elroy, grapples with mounting stress, his body wracked with uncontrollable tremors as he futilely swallows pills in his office. To compound his misery, a damning message arrives, bearing snippets from Sara's intimate journal, casting a sinister shadow over his already troubled mind.
Elsewhere, the cracks in Cesar and Mariana's marriage widen as she withdraws physically, refusing to share the intimacy of their bedchamber. Bruno, meanwhile, is haunted by the cries for help from Cesar's hired escort, her words echoing in his conscience.
Flashing back to the fateful day of Sara's demise, Cesar's unwelcome advances leave her shaken by the docks, his presence a palpable threat. Shortly thereafter, Chema's rage boils over, confronting Sara at her home and pinning her against the wall with a force that snaps her head back violently.
In the present day, Elisa finds refuge in Alex's room, her exhaustion claiming her in slumber. Seizing the moment, Alex stealthily reaches for her phone, his fingers dancing across the screen as he hacks into her files, uncovering plans of her imminent departure. But his investigation is abruptly halted by a knock at the door—Rodolfo, panting and disheveled, relates a tale of being trapped within the confines of a sauna, adding yet another layer of intrigue to this intricate web of deceit.
Meanwhile, Chema and Lorenzo extend an extraordinary offer to Clara, inviting her to embark on the journey of becoming a surrogate mother for their family. Overwhelmed with joy, Clara's heart soars as she embraces the idea of becoming an integral part of their lives.
Back at the glittering casino, Cesar stands poised for the grand opening, his anticipation palpable. The news of Jorge's assault, a stark reminder of the events unfolding, only reinforces his belief in his own innocence. But as the night wears on, Elroy's fragile grasp on reality begins to unravel, Sara's ghostly presence haunting him as the casino doors swing open.
Concurrently, Bruno descends into the shadowy basement, his mission clear: to locate Imara, the young woman whose plea for aid echoes in his mind. The air is thick with anticipation as guests, including Alex and Elisa, arrive impeccably dressed, their eyes fixed on uncovering the truth.
Alex's fingers dance across Cesar's computer keys, his intrusion swift and precise. Curiously, the computer's wallpaper betrays a hint of his true identity—the same enigmatic archer that has captivated their attention. Could he be Diana the Huntress in disguise?
As Elisa recounts her impending departure from Madrid, Alex's mind remains focused on the task at hand. The transfer of damning files complete, they set a timer, a mere three minutes to expose Cesar's darkest secrets—images of animals brutally slain for sport, a stark contrast to the casino's glitz and glamour.
The alarm's piercing wail fills the air, a prelude to chaos. Onstage, Elroy's fragile state reaches its breaking point. With trembling hands, he raises a gun to his own head, the screen abruptly plunging into darkness as a gut-wrenching gunshot shatters the silence, leaving everyone stunned and reeling from the aftermath.
