Jane the Virgin season 1, episode 18 airs tonight on The CW.
Rogelio’s mom visits, but she and Xo are not on good terms. Meanwhile, Rafael gets news about his biological mother; Jane must miss her family’s Easter celebration in order to fix a mishap she caused at work; and Petra seeks assistance from Michael.
When Jane Villanueva was a young girl, her grandmother, Alba, convinced her of two things: telenovelas are the highest form of entertainment, and women must protect their virginity at all costs. Now age 23, Jane is a driven young woman studying to become a teacher, nursing a dream to be a writer, and supporting herself with a job at a hot new Miami hotel. All the years of watching telenovelas with the two women who raised her – her sexy, young-at-heart mother, Xiomara, and her still-devout grandmother Alba – have given Jane a slightly unrealistic view of romance. Still, she is determined not to make the same mistake her mother made – becoming an unwed mother at 16. Jane has managed to find a wonderful fiancé: a handsome, hard-working detective named Michael, who loves her enough to accept her detailed timeline for their future together and even her insistence on “saving herself” until they’re married. All of Jane’s meticulous life plans are turned upside down, however, when she sees her doctor for a routine check-up and is accidentally artificially inseminated with a specimen meant for the patient in the next room.
Jane the Virgin season 1, episode 18 airs April 13 at 9 p.m. EDT on The CW.
