Velvet 4x4 "El enemigo interior" / "The Enemy Within"

Christina, all she ever goes on about is respect! "I want them to respect me" blah blah blah...she needs to earn it! She surpirses me to no end when she recognizes that Ana would feel concern about the employees of the store but sees that as a character flaw somehow. She's got Ana all figured out. But what's interesting is Carlos dosesn't seem to have the "evil" in him like Christina does. I find he's actually concerned about what Ana would think if he got involved in her business. He knows Ana doesn't take too kindly to his interference because Carlos knows he's not on secure ground with Ana. He knows Ana doesn't love him, so he knows that any interference could cause him some backlash. He's more hesitant but seems anxious about Christina willingness to contact Alberto and knows he's running out of time. He has to make this happen before she does. Christina has him right where she wants him. I also think even though it was cruel to say the least that he kept Alberto's letters, and he isn't a saint, but I suspect he now knows the lengths Christina will go to get revenge and that even scares him a little. He's like a deer caught in the headlights of a car. He looks scared whenever he sees Christina.

Another thing Christina is going against what Enrique and Marco want. Interesting. I wonder whose putting up the extra money for the Pret-a-porter new digs? Christina? Carlos? Also when Carlos takes Ana blindfolded it didn't look like Aoritas's(?) store. Was this entirely new digs (store)? It looks so very differtent from what Ana used to go to when she went to Aoritas(?) store to drop off her dresses?

I'm assuming Marco still owns 60% of Velvet and Enrique and Christina split the 40% so have equal shares between them. I also can't understand the hate between Enrique and Ana. I understand Marco's but not Enrique's. Is it her ties to Alberto, his ties to Christina? Feels she's responsible for Christina's breakdown?

Mateo will flip when he finds out about Clara and Marco, and I suspect Marco will get great joy in telling Mateo about his relationship. That will really hurt Mateo. Clara however has no one to blame but herself. That's a shame. I also love the relationship between Mateo and Ana. I think if Alberto wasn't coming back I would accept a relationship between the 2. Better Mateo than Carlos!!

They are aunt and niece in real life: -"tiene algo raro"/"she has something weird/odd/unusual"-. What she says is ambiguous in spanish though, because it makes only complete sense if instead of Petra who said that was Concha Velasco about her niece Manuela Velasco.

Raul was the highlight of the episode for me, the scene with Jonas and the drawing board (Lemon yellow!) or later with Pedro, Jonas and Humberto were hilarious. Pedro is still embarrassing to watch, putting himself in very difficult positions while trying to do what he thinks is the best for his cousin, you know how much Marco looks down on him and he is unaware of that disdain, it's not easy to watch. Rita and Clara scenes were full of tenderness and pain and love, sigh, my favourite characters . Don Emilio and Doña Blanca are more and more the parents of everyone, maybe "their union" ends like something platonic and symbolic of this fact. Clara and Mateo scenes together make me smile like a fool, haha, now she is more invested than him (or looks like that) but i think that's going to change soon. They gave some hints about how Clara was very jealous of other women, maybe that is a big part of their separation.

And Ana is the heroine of the story, and any hero needs evil villains to fight and have odds against them.
