Ander is the fifth episode of the third season of the Spanish show Elite, which premiered on Netflix on March 13, 2020. As the title suggests, this episode mainly revolves around the character of Ander, played by Arón Piper.

The episode starts with Ander receiving chemotherapy for his cancer, which has been a major storyline in the series. The intense treatment takes a toll on him, physically and emotionally, and he finds it hard to hide the side effects from his friends and family. He also struggles to cope with the fact that his relationship with Omar (Omar Ayuso) is on the rocks, as Omar has been distant towards him since they had a fight in the previous episode.

Meanwhile, the tension between Samuel (Itzan Escamilla), Guzmán (Miguel Bernardeau), and Polo (Álvaro Rico) grows even more. Polo is trying to manipulate both Samuel and Guzmán with his lies, as he tries to conceal his involvement in Marina's murder. Samuel and Guzmán, who have never really gotten along, seem to be brought together by their mutual distrust of Polo. They decide to team up and investigate the truth behind what happened to their friend Marina (María Pedraza), even if it means risking their own secrets being exposed.

As the episode progresses, Ander's struggle with his illness becomes more prominent. He tries his best to live a normal life, participating in a school project to build a car for a race but is constantly reminded of the harsh reality of his situation. He also has a heart-to-heart conversation with his mother, who admits that she is worried about him and that she wishes she could take his pain away. She even suggests that he should consider taking a break from school to focus on his treatment, but Ander insists on continuing with his studies despite the challenges.

The episode also features some subplots with the other characters. Cayetana (Georgina Amorós) is dealing with her guilt over lying about her background and Her increasing attraction towards Polo. Meanwhile, Nadia (Mina El Hammani) struggles with her conservative Muslim family's expectations while trying to maintain her relationship with the liberal and non-Muslim Guzmán.

Towards the end of the episode, there is a major plot twist involving one of the characters that leaves the audience gasping and sets the tone for the rest of the season. Despite Ander's struggles and the tension between the other characters, this episode ends on a positive note with Ander sharing a heartwarming moment with his boyfriend Omar.

Overall, the Ander episode of Elite is an emotional rollercoaster that showcases the challenges of dealing with cancer and the complexities of teenage relationships. It also sets up the stage for the escalating tension and drama that will follow in the rest of the season.
