[church bells ringing]

(Father Ignacio) "You chastised me,
I was an untamed calf.

And...

I am chastened.

I walked away,

but I am ashamed,

and I repent.

I have come to myself,

and I strike my breast."

Jeremiah 31:19.

This is why, brothers and sisters,

when we confess our sins,

we strike our breast three times.

It's an act of penitence.

"Through my fault,

through my fault,

through my most grievous fault."

Unfortunately, brothers and sisters,

these days
we think we can forget faults.

[Tita gasps]

(Father Ignacio) But faults
aren't forgotten.

Fault is only cleansed
through our own pain and suffering

in the same way Jesus Christ our Lord
suffered due to our sins.

The Holy Scriptures state

that God will keep his Heavy Hand on us

when a sin remains to be confessed.

But remember.

Only if we sincerely repent

and confess our sins,

we'll be forgiven.

And "I said,

'I confess

my faults to the Lord.

And you,

Holy Father,

took away

my vileness

and my sin.'"

Let us pray.

Take my place if you want.

You seem to be in a hurry.

No. No, thank you.

I'll be back later.

LIKE WATER FOR CHOCOLATE

[Esperanza cries]

[Rosaura shushes]

I can't make her fall asleep.

I've already fed her
and taken her to take some fresh air.

It's normal, she'll fall asleep.

[gasps] It's so difficult
to make her sleep.

You're doing a good job, Rosaura.

[Esperanza cries]

Give her to me.

Let's go to the kitchen
to make her sleep.

Bring her pram and some diapers.

[Esperanza giggles]

Why are you here?

I've heard Esperanza and came in.

-[Rosaura sighs]
-(Pedro) Are you all right?

I don't understand why Esperanza
wants to be here and not in her room.

(Tita) Maybe she likes pots
and heat, like me.

Father, do you have a minute?

Yes, my child.

I need to organize a sacrament.

Of course. Go ahead, child.

[groans]

[sighs]

I think this flour
is enough to make bread.

I guess so.

[horse neighs]

(Tita) Why is Father Ignacio here?

(Fina) I don't know.

THE US GOVERNMENT
ACKNOWLEDGES VENUSTIANO CARRANZA

AS THE PRESIDENT OF MEXICO

Father Ignacio is at the living room.

He needs to talk to us.

Pedro.

He is in a hurry.

GENERAL MÚZQUIZ PROMISED TO END

VILLA'S FOLLOWERS LOOTING OF RANCHES

I asked the Father
to come and organize the wedding.

(Ignacio) First of all,
my most sincere congratulations.

You make a beautiful couple.

Now, in order
to hold this marriage ceremony,

some steps must be followed.

It's just a formality.

We need your certificates of Baptism,

of First Communion and of Confirmation.

Besides,

we must leave this in the church.

You must be wondering what it is.

It's a warning record.

If anyone thinks there may be
a hindrance to this wedding,

they should record it here.

It'll be open to everyone
at the church for a month.

If by that time there are no objections,

the ceremony
will be held without problem.

Father, is it absolutely necessary?

(Father Ignacio) It's
an ecclesiastical formality.

Only God knows hidden secrets.

Besides, you two must make a confession.

To receive this sacrament, you must be

in grace first,
according to what the Church dictates.

If you have questions,
here I am to answer them.

No, I believe it's all clear.

Yes, crystal clear, thank you very much.

Well, in that case, I must go.

-(Rosaura) I'll walk you out.
-Thanks. And congratulations.

(Brown) Thank you.

A cookie for the road.

(Rosaura) Of course.

Please.

[door opens]

Thank you very much
for coming so soon, Father.

And...

isn't is possible to do anything
so as not to wait a whole month?

When it comes to procedures,
the Church is very strict, my child.

But if I revise the warning record

on the Day of the Dead,

and besides the tithe,

you give me a hot chocolate
and a good day of the dead bread,

we could speed things up a little.

It'll be such a honor to have you here.

This is for the road.

Thank you, my child.

Safe travels!

[Rosaura shushes]

She finally fell asleep.

It seems it has worked.

Thank you, Tita.

Why didn't you ask us?

What do you mean?

(Tita) I mean our wedding.

Why didn't you say you'd talked
to the Father? What's the hurry?

I thought it'd be for the best.

If I'm planning ahead,
I apologize, but I want to help.

Tita, what's wrong?

If you don't want to get married,
tell me, I'm your sister.

Yes, I do want to get married.

Thank you for your concern.

Next time, talk to me first.

It's for me to decide.

Let me help you.

Thank you.

[sighs]

Leave it here, please.

Will you stop
pretending nothing happened?

Tita...

Let me go, Pedro.

That night was real.

No, it was a mistake.

We let ourselves go.

No.

Marrying someone
you don't love is a mistake.

I know.

And I regret it every single day.

So you get married to punish me?

You only talk about your feelings.

Have you ever thought about my feelings?

That night, we were selfish.
Again, you're thinking about yourself.

Tita, we still love each other.

That hasn't changed.

What are we supposed to do with that?

That's what I thought.

I love you with all my heart.

I'd do anything for you.

Well, next time you're in love,

you should actually
do anything for that person.

[opens door]

[gasps]

[church bells ringing]

(Rosaura) We'll need more cempasúchil .

And more oil lamps.

It's expensive, I know,

but this must be
the most beautiful oblation.

It's for Mom, it must be special.

I'll go get more copal .

What about this frame for Robertito?

No, we won't put Robertito.

Look, it wasn't your fault...

Mom's picture, at the center, please.

[door opens]

[steps approaching]

It's Miss Gertrudis.

[baby cries]

Don't worry, I'll do it.

(Gertrudis) Thank you, Delfino!

-[Tita sighs]
-Your nephew.

[sobs] It's Juan's child,
I swear, but he didn't believe me.

That's why I left.

No need to explain.

I believe in you.

[Gertrudis sighs]

-[door opens]
-You'll be fine here.

(Rosaura) Gertrudis, who's that child?

We'd agreed it would be
the best if you kept away.

You can't stay.

(Tita) What's the matter with you?

This is her house too.

I won't let
Gertrudis and her son go away.

[door opens]

MÚZQUIZ PROMISED TO END
VILLA'S FOLLOWERS LOOTING

(Pedro) You're back!

We didn't do this.

No Villa's follower has gone
to any ranches, we live in the hills.

[sighs] I thought so.

This is someone else's doing.

The ranches that were attacked
are in the tanning business mainly.

Lots of laborers
and their families have no protection.

Well, then that "someone else"
is taking good care of their business.

[ ♪ ]

(Gertrudis) What's that?

(Tita) See it for yourself.

[ ♪ ]

(Felipe) So no Spanish at all.

[laughs] Okay, we'll manage.

Like I was saying, look!

A promise is a promise.

[in English] What I promise,
I give to you, so...

I have sensitive information.

We have rebels up over here and here,

so they are very good positioned.

But I control them.

I don't let the food go back,
I don't let the ammunition go back.

So everything is ready.

In exchange, I need you
to buy some more of the fur.

Yeah?

[in Spanish] The fur! More fur! Okay?

-[Felipe keeps talking]
-[indistinct chatter]

(soldier) No, we'll surround the enemy.
You know how it goes.

[ ♪ ]

(Gertrudis) Mom did know what love was.

He was her true love.

Now we know
why you were her favorite one.

But everything
has always been so unfair for you.

Now that I know why,
it's even more unfair.

It's not your fault.

And I did receive love.

I had you and Nacha.

[sniffs]

[Gertrudis sighs]

I'd really love to tell Rosaura

Mom was neither perfect

nor a saint. [laughs]

It makes me mad to know

that she made you
suffer so much because of this.

Maybe I'm worse than her.

I did something really bad.

(man) Put more furs on the cart!

Come on!

[man screams]

(Nicolás) This guy won't do.

Take him to the workers' houses.

He'll be better in a few days.

[gasps]

(soldier) What the hell happened to you?

You love Pedro, that's why it happened.

You're fooling yourself.

John takes care of me.

He respects me.

He gives me peace.

We love each other.

If you really love him,
and want to stop feeling guilty,

you'd better tell him the truth.

No. I don't know.

I can't.

I don't want to hurt anybody.

Then swallow all your secrets,
and you'll grow as bitter as Mom.

I'll go to bed.

(Pedro) Delfino!

[knocks]

I need your help.

All right, sir.

Thank you. Come here.

(Pedro) Nobody must know he's here.

Go ahead, Delfino.

[gasps] Do it gently.

Right, right.

[church bells ring]

[Tita sighs]

Father.

I gave in to temptation

with a man I love since my childhood.

We sinned.

And I really regret it.

(Elena) You don't regret a thing.

You enjoyed it!

You're a hypocrite, Tita!

[breathes heavily]

Is everything okay? Go to the booth.

I'm not feeling well. I'll be back soon.

But Tita...!

I thought it was an upset stomach,

but it won't go away.

Cover up, please.

Your bowels are irritated.

I'll give you an antispasmodic.

It will ease the pain
and reduce inflammation.

Doctor.

Do you happen to have anything...

to prevent flatulence?

It's so serious I asked Pedro
to sleep at the guest room.

You may drink chamomile or mint tea.

That can help.
But above all, watch what you eat.

I haven't been okay
since I ate that champandongo.

Anyway,

that was the lesser evil.

Right.

Well, jealousy is normal
when you really love someone.

-Don't you think?
-No.

I overdid it, and...

Tita has been distant, and she's right.

No, Doctor, Tita loves you.

She doesn't want you to doubt her word.

Maybe that's why she's distant.

I hope so.

Please, watch what you eat.

Thank you, Doctor.

[♪]

(narrator) Tita needed to ease her guilt
and to keep herself busy.

While cooking,
she relaxed little by little.

Then she started thinking

that maybe everything
would be fine in the end.

By hiding the truth,

she wouldn't make
John and Rosaura suffer,

and she would go on with the wedding.

And what happened
that night between her and Pedro

would only be a distant memory.

(narrator) Tita promised herself

she would stay away from temptation.

Away from Pedro.

For a while,
she didn't feel that guilty.

But like any other feeling,
guilt lies deep down in our self

and shows up when least expected.

(narrator) Once the dough is ready,

small portions
must be taken and turned into strings.

Those strings
symbolize the cycle of life

and ancestors' bones.

Finally, each loaf of bread
should be bathed in egg yolk

before baking them.

DAY OF THE DEAD BREAD

[moans]

(Elena) You can't stop thinking
about that night, right?

If given the chance, you'd do it again.

You're shameless!

Think about your family, Tita.

You're betraying them.

Think about your sister, her daughter,

your engagement.

[Tita sobs quietly]

[hoofbeats approaching]

John!

I've been looking for you.

Can we talk?

I know we must talk,
but there's an emergency in town.

Could we talk calmly later, at night?

John.

Tita...

Delfino! Get my horse ready,
I'll go to church right now!

Yes, sir!

Weren't you supposed
to get holy water at the church?

I've asked Mr. Pedro to bring it,
he's gone to church.

[opens door]

[steps approaching]

(narrator) Tita's bread awoke the guilt

Rosaura had managed
to escape for a long time.

She felt an urgent need
to ask for her son's forgiveness.

[ ♪ ]

I'll stay for dinner.
Come later, Arnoldo.

Very well, Father.

-(Father) My child.
-(Rosaura) How are you, Father?

(Arnoldo) Giddy up!

(Father) Traveling makes me feel
more tired the older I get.

Anyway, it is what it is.

I know this couple
has been given the sacraments.

Rosaura was kind enough
to book some dates at the church.

She also completed some forms.

All I have to do now
is to revise the warning record

to check if there's anything

that might prevent
this wedding from happening.

You, Rosaura, and you, Pedro,

being the heads of this family,

will witness everything here.

It will all be made

in the name of God.

Let's proceed.

There are no objections.

(Rosaura) So the wedding plans
can be carried out.

Yes, but now I'll be needing some time.

I've received news
from my aunt Mary at San Antonio.

She's excited about the wedding.

She's all the family I have.
I'd love to have her at the wedding.

I won't be away for long, really,
and I could also pick Alex and Grace up.

(Rosaura) Why wait so long?
You could marry here,

then celebrate
with the rest of your family.

Right.

But it would be very important
for me that my son

and my aunt attended our wedding.

I hope it doesn't bother you, Rosaura.

Excuse me. [groans] Sorry, Father.

Go ahead, my child.

Getting married is our decision,

not Rosaura's.

Excuse me.

Father, shall we go to the dining room?

Yes, please, my child, I'm starving.

[♪]

What should I do, Nacha?

(Father) So it's worth
wondering what suffering is.

What our pain and sickness are

when compared to those
of this great biblical character, Job,

who was devastated
by this terrible, miserable character...

Satan.

There's so much
people should learn about faith.

-[John whispers] Thanks.
-(Father) Let's pray.

Our Father,
bless with your protective hand

this bread you're giving us
on Earth as in Heaven.

Make us gather in a table
like this in Heaven someday.

-Amen.
-(All) Amen.

-Enjoy.
-(All) Enjoy.

[indistinct chatter]

(narrator) Tita's feelings
had imbued the bread,

which brought up
everybody's faults that night.

There were so many,

deep faults,

that nobody knew how to deal with them.

[Rosaura closes door]

[Pedro slams door]

[Gertrudis closes door]

[John slams door]

[Tita closes door]

[Father Ignacio closes door]

Hi.

Hi.

I wanted to apologize.

I should have done this before, but...

I don't know,

I was hoping that, after some time,

I'd understand
why I reacted like that at the party.

Don't worry.

I know this situation isn't easy.

I have no excuse

for behaving the way I did that night.

No, really.

Don't worry.

It's over now.

You're a great woman, Tita.

I'm so fortunate to be with you.

What did you want
to talk about this morning?

Nothing.

Just nonsense.

You know...

Nobody has ever loved me the way you do.

Are you all right?

Yes.

I must go to my room.

(Mr. Pedro) Promise me
you'll make an effort to be happy.

Go back to your wife.

(Pedro) I promise I will, Dad.

I'll do the right thing.

[♪]

(narrator) It is said that, that night,

nobody sat back
to have dinner at Las Palomas.

However, there was no food left.

[knocking]

The man you've brought is awake.

Easy.

[man groans]

Don't push yourself.

[man sighs]

Thank you for saving me.

But my family is still there.

They will be killed.

What's your name?

Santos.

Emilio Santos de la Cruz.

Listen, Santos.

I need your help.

We must get the land back,
and save your family and everybody else.

(Pedro) The general.

Felipe Múzquiz.
Do you know him? Have you seen him?

[sighs] Yes.

His people
pretend to be Villa's followers

so as to attack ranches and take them.

Then they make people work
as if they were animals.

[gasps] They make them skin goats.

What does he do with those furs?

Only God knows what he does.

It's kept in secret.

Those soldiers.

They're with him. What for?

They're Yankees.

People from the ranch say
the general helps them hunt Villa.

Just rest, Santos.

You must come with me to inform this.

Okay, I will.

But help me rescue my family.

I promise I'll do my best to help them.

Thank you.

(Elena) You didn't have the guts
to confess your sins.

I'm having a peaceful night, please.

(Elena) You have
no peaceful time when you cheat.

When you deceive.

You won't find
the forgiveness you're looking for.

The child you have in your loins
is the fruit of your sin.

[gasping] What did you just say?

That's not true!

[banging on floor]

[door opens]

[Tita gasps]

What's wrong?

[gasps and sobs]

I'm pregnant with Pedro's child.

ON THE NEXT EPISODE
OF LIKE WATER FOR CHOCOLATE

(Rosaura) Marry the doctor
and make him believe it's his child.

(Tita) You want me to lie.

Your child will be illegitimate, Tita.

If you lie, you'll save
the family's reputation.

Do you love him?

(Brown) If you choose Pedro,
I hope he takes care of you.

Do whatever makes you happy, Tita.

If you take Pedro, I'll die.
