Rahul is furious because of the "damage"she did to the cement. Tejaswani tells Rubi what happened at the site. Elvira tells Tejaswani the director is waiting for her. Imran tells Rahul that Solis gave the order. The director tells Tejaswani that she is not to leave her station for any reason, she did and he must suspend her for 3 days. She tells him she left for the clinic, went to the construction. The director Seta tells her that the problem is the sad state of the clinic itself. She says no. He has no complaint about her work but doesn't want her interfering in things that don't involve her. Las escombras y aguas negros.
