Ep 3. Tomando Riesgos

In "Lo Que la Vida Me Robó" season 1 episode 3, titled "Tomando Riesgos," we continue to follow the story of Montserrat, a wealthy young woman who falls in love with a lower-class man named Alejandro. In this episode, Montserrat's father, Benjamín, is still opposed to her relationship with Alejandro and continues to push her towards her former fiance, José Luis.

Despite her father's wishes, Montserrat continues to see Alejandro in secret. One day, while out together, they witness a car accident and stop to help. Alejandro recognizes one of the victims as the man who testified against him in a previous trial, causing him to worry that he may be implicated in the accident.

Meanwhile, Montserrat's mother, Graciela, is having her own problems. She discovers that her husband is having an affair with her friend, Rosario, and confronts both of them. Rosario argues that Graciela has neglected her husband, and that he needed someone to turn to. Graciela is hurt by the betrayal and unsure of how to proceed.

As the episode progresses, Montserrat takes more risks to be with Alejandro, including lying to her family about her whereabouts. José Luis becomes increasingly suspicious of her behavior and enlists the help of his friend, Nádia, to spy on her. Nádia follows Montserrat and Alejandro to a remote cabin and takes photos of them together, which she uses to blackmail José Luis into marrying her.

Meanwhile, Alejandro's legal troubles come to a head when he is dragged into the investigation of the car accident. He turns to his lawyer, Dimitrio, for help, but they both know that Alejandro's past offenses make him an easy target for the police. It remains to be seen whether Alejandro will be able to escape the law and continue his relationship with Montserrat.

Overall, "Tomando Riesgos" is a dramatic and tense episode that sees Montserrat and Alejandro taking greater risks to be together, even as their families and outside forces conspire against them.
