To achieve his goal, Eduardo goes as far as to seduce Florencia, and knowing that her family is in debt, he loans her money for a potential business where he tricks her into signing up her mansion as surety.

While walking about in the streets of Quito, she meets German and Flavio, two journalist students who met her and her mother while they were studying in Lima.
Using money in order to achieve his means, Eduardo bribes the prison guards at the women's penitentiary so that he can be left alone in Camila and rape her.
