He hires "Cuervo" Flores (Goity), a professional Casanova to seduce Tana, hoping this will make her divorce him. To aid with that seduction, Tenso gets Tana a job at a local radio station where her morning talk show complaining about what she dislikes becomes popular. Cuervo proceeds to try to seduce Tana and professes to Tenso that he has fallen in love with Tana. Tenso confesses to Tana that he had set up the seduction, and she confesses that she has been seduced by the radio station manager. Tenso and Tana proceed with a divorce, but reconcile before the divorce can be finalized.
