During a spree of burglaries, Tessa's godfather, Don Federico, is killed, robbing the young woman of yet another loved one and providing the Queen of Swords with a very personal reason to stop the bandits. The personal vendetta becomes even more so, when her oldest friend, Ramon, and his lover, Isabelle (played by special guest star Daisy Fuentes), are exposed as two of the thieves.

The Queen of Swords and Grisham (Tessie Santiago, Anthony Lemke) are trapped in an abandoned mine with only their vendettas to keep them alive.
