Marcus, Susana's fiancé, starts to attract a large number of faithful in his home, who somehow want to receive a blessing from Miss California, considered holy by some. The plot is complicated when Dan and Beatriz discover that Susana's deep sleep is related to a scientific experiment by a group led by two scientists: Diana and Xavier.
