Seb is still in charge per request from Octavios will...)

(Lucrecia, Lucia and Paula go back to bug Avellaneda unannounced and wait for him outside his office... he takes them in conference room...)
Ave: Ya tome una decision. Ella va a ser trasladada. Y voy a decirte algo personal, Lucia, por tratarse de los Vallejo. Si vuelve a ocurrir algun otro incidente en el cual ella involucre a la Asociacion, entonces la despido. Eso es lo maximo que puedo hacer por Ustedes. (he practically kicks them out... no more time for you all...)
(Lucrecia suggests to Lucia to change strategy, use a new ally, Susana...)
(Seb calls Arthur and tells him that Miguel and Paula are coming to live at hacienda and Miguel will be administrator. Arthur is confused because Seb just left him there as administrator. Seb says dont worry! DO your job and give Miguel some guidance and keep him busy... Arthur tells Seb that the coffee from the biggest section of the hacienda is coming good enough to market it as gourmet. It will take some more work to get it to that ranking, but it can be done. Seb is excited at the idea.)
(Next morning at CE office, Seb scares the hairs off Miguel telling him about the low coffee value in the market and about the roya threat and tells Miguel that his main job will be to keep an eye over the roya prevention stuff...

(Lucrecia and Ivan get back to the Miami house, she wants the whole place disinfected, walls and all, and she wants the bed replaced, the bathroom remodeled... I: Manda a tumbar la casa si te da la gana!!... )
(Seb tells Francisco about the gourmet coffee he wants to try to produce, Francisco says it is not that easy, that coffee needs special quality assurance from the tree to the market, and you have to sell it in small quantities directly to buyers, outside the stock market... Seb is still excited. Fran says then you need to get informed about it at the Assoc, with the Depto. de Relaciones Publicas! (he just gave Seb the perfect excuse to contact Gav... Seb stays in his chair smiling, end of ep 81))
(Ivan goes to his computer at the house in Miami and finds it empty, all his files are erased... he goes beserk. Lucrecia asks him what was so important, and he just says it was a lot of very confidential and important info he had in there...)
