Aurelio and friends formulate a plan to go to the competition in place of Juli's father. But, how will she break to him that she doesn't want to go with him?

In 1971, in anticipation of the Pan American Games to be held in Cali, Colombia, the overwhelming pace of the city's development is the topic of conversation at a multifamily celebration.

At a New Year's gathering for the two families, different dynamics become apparent between different couples.

The closeness of two families from the same Colombian neighborhood, the Belalcazars and the Lizcanos, goes far beyond the proximity of their residences.

The famous Colombian series, "La sucursal del cielo" [Heaven's Subsidiary], focuses on such topics as the customs and traditions, forbidden love and race relations of three families living in the same neighborhood in Cali in 1971. The introduction features the popular salsa, "Agúzate" by Richie Ray and Bobby Cruz.

Mery continues with the preparation of her party, but has changed her mind about who to invite. Meanwhile, Juli resorts to a lie to avoid the pain of competing alongside her father.

At the nightclub, Duque's naïveté and inexperience comes to light. Meanwhile, Margarita, Orrego, and Plata continue to discuss how to deal with the aftermath of the latter two's extreme practical joke.

While Duque regains faith in his luck, Margarita, Plata, and Orrego prepare to go look for him. Meanwhile, Irma and her mother are also trying to track down Duque.

Having learned about his supposed good fortune, Duque's wife and in-laws plot to try to get their perceived share. Meanwhile, Duque experiences a bit of a setback.

While Margarita, Orrego, and Plata try to get Lombana's approval to leave work early, Duque's wife and mother-in-law finally find out the reason for his erratic behavior.

As Duque's heated argument continues with his wife and in-laws, Margarita, Plata, and Orrego frantically discuss how to get in touch with their frenzied friend before he gets into more trouble.

Duque's belief that he has won the lottery has given him the newfound courage to speak his mind, letting his coworkers know exactly what he thinks of them.

In a euphoric state, Duque decides to go and give Lombana, as well as some fellow employees, a piece of his mind.

After Margarita finishes her meeting with her boss, the moment arrives to hear the lottery results. Will Duque's "luck" finally change?

While Margarita stops by her boss' office to ask him for a favor, Duque's friends encourage him to join them for the drawing of the winning lottery ticket.
