Warning: This article contains spoilers for Good Trouble Season 4 Episode 14, titled, “Life Is What Happens…”
Joaquin and Mariana
Joaquin (played by Bryan Craig) and Mariana (played by Cierra Ramirez) continue to get close. At first, they had a clash and it looked like they might stop communicating, but they mended fences. Mariana wants to help Joaquin with his problems with his sister, Jenna. When she went to his loft to tell him she might have a solution, he was snippy and said that it’s his problem, not hers.
Joaquin later apologized and said he realizes if it weren’t for her, he wouldn’t have found his sister. He has just been worried about Jenna and the possibility she could be in danger. Mariana tells him there might be a way he could still get to Jenna without violating the restraining order.
At one point during the episode, Kelly confronts Mariana about her relationship with Joaquin. She claims that she had first dibs on him. It’s clear Joaquin is not interested in Kelly, so it’s strange that she thought she had a chance with him. Mariana thinks Kelly is weird, so she ignores her.
Gael and Isabella
Isabella (played by Priscilla Quintana) confronts Gael after she overhears that he paid for her loft so she wouldn’t leave. Isabella immediately assumes Gael told her he loved her because he wanted her to stay and have the baby there. She also questioned why Gael hadn’t told his parents they’re a couple.
Gael decides to take the next step and tell his family that he and Isabella are together. His mother is overjoyed, and the rest of the family celebrates with them. Everything seemed to be going well, but this feeling didn’t last long.
Isabella has been ignoring phone calls from her father about giving the baby up for adoption. Her father also called Gael, but he blocked the number and refused to pick up.
Isabella’s father threatened her and said he would call the police about her damaging his car if she didn’t go through with the adoption. She continued to ignore his calls, so he decided to move forward and contact the police. At the end of the episode, Isabella is escorted out of The Coterie in handcuffs.
Malika and Angelica
Things have been rocky for Malika and Angelica. They got into a heated argument after Malika attended a work party. Her boss was trying to break them up, so she did things she knew would make Angelica jealous. Her plan succeeded. Angelica became very jealous, and she and Malika had an argument.
The couple made up before attending a wedding, but things quickly went downhill. After Malika told Angelica she loved her, the relationship soured. Angelica said she also loved Malika but that she couldn’t share her. According to her, loving Malika was hurting her. Being in a polyamorous relationship isn’t for her.
