Jane the Virgin is a 2014 CW satirical dramedy, and an Americanization of the popular (and frequently adapted) Venezuelan telenovela Juana la virgen. It ran for 100 episodes over five seasons, with its final episode airing in 2019.Jane Gloriana Villanueva is a 23-year-old hotel worker studying to become a teacher. Although she's been dating Fair Cop Michael Cordero for the last two years, she has sworn to God and her grandmother Alba that she would save herself for marriage, much to the chagrin of her Glamorous Single Mother Xiomara. When not doting on her boyfriend, she spends time with her family, eating grilled cheese and watching telenovelas with her mother and grandmother.Then one day, when she goes in for a routine pap smear, a distracted doctor accidentally artificially inseminates Jane, and Jane becomes pregnant. Oops.Now, the sperm belonged to Tall, Dark, and Handsome Rafael Solano, the new owner of the hotel at which Jane works, and with whom Jane shared a dizzying kiss five years earlier. It transpires that chemotherapy treatments Rafael underwent to fight cancer have rendered him unable to biologically father children, and he pressures Jane to keep the child. Also, the sample was meant for his wife, Gold Digger Petra, who had intended to use it to get pregnant and make some serious bank, though there's more to her than meets the eye.Additionally, the doctor that made this mistake is Rafael's sister Luisa, and this event sets Luisa on the path to reconciling with her ex, Rose, in her quest for legal aid. Meanwhile, Michael begins to dig into a criminal conspiracy centered around "Sin Rostro," "the man without a face," a drug dealer who apparently operates out of Rafael's hotel, instantly implicating Rafael, Luisa, their father Emilio and his third wife Rose — yes, the same Rose that Luisa just hooked up with. Oh, and Jane's Disappeared Dad Rogelio, the Small Name, Big Ego star of a popular telenovela, is back in town and wants to reconnect, both with her and with her mother.And then, in the second episode, things get really complicated.The series is entrenched in a number of Soap Opera and telenovela tropes. However, it's also an Affectionate Parody and Decon-Recon Switch of said tropes, leading to a lot of subversions and twists. It also features an external Narrator (credited as "Latin Lover Narrator") who is practically a character in his own right. He provides infodumps, commentary, recaps, segues between flashbacks and the modern day, and occasional Lampshade Hangings or Deadpan Snarkery. Chyrons and captions help him keep the plot moving smoothly.The show's primary focus, despite the drama (and occasional melodrama) of the plot, is the relationship between all the characters, particularly between the three generations of the Villanueva family and the new blended family Jane is attempting to create between herself, Rafael, and their newly-conceived baby (eventually revealed to be a son named Mateo). This is complicated by an ever-shifting love square with two separate Betty and Veronica dynamics, starring Jane, Rafael, Michael, and Petra. | |

Fair Cop: Michael is a detective with the Miami PD. His partner Nadine is pretty easy on the eyes, too. Which makes their hookup after Michael's breakup with Jane virtually inevitable. Michael's second partner, Susanna, is also good-looking. And even better looking as Sin Rostro. | |

Happy Marriage Charade: At the start of the series, Rafael and Petra put on a facade of being a happy, wealthy, in-love couple. In private, though, Rafael has fallen out of love with her and Petra, while still having feelings for him, attempts to manipulate him to get the money specified in her prenup. | |

Arc Symbol: Jane's relationships with her two main love interests both have one that comes from where she had a important kiss with them: a tree for Rafael and snow for Micheal. Michael's even serves as a Memory Trigger to help him recover from Laser-Guided Amnesia. Characters hearts will appear to glow throughout the series whenever they are overwhelmed with love. | |

Rogelio later gets the go-ahead to produce an American version of The Passions of Santos. The cultural differences between telenovelas and American soaps are explored in his clash with his co-star River Fields (not Brooke Shields); the latter wants to cut down the more outlandish plot twists and dramatic aspects for a more 'grounded' narrative. Rogelio eventually gets his way. | |

Big, Screwed-Up Family | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_154aa477 | comment |
Big, Screwed-Up Family: The wealthy Solanos are messed up even by telenovela standards. Rafael and Petra's marriage is on the rocks, so Gold Digger Petra attempts to artificially inseminate herself in order to stay married long enough to get the money specified in the prenup. This is at the behest of her murderous, manipulative mother Magda. Meanwhile, Rafael has to deal with his past of cancer, his disapproving father, his mother whom his father bribed to abandon him, and making sure the hotel doesn't go under. His half-sister Luisa is a recovering alcoholic whose marriage is also on the rocks, and is responsible for accidentally bringing Jane into the mess in the first place. To say nothing about how stepmother Rose is having an affair with Luisa in addition to being sinister Big Bad Sin Rostro; on top of that, Rafael seems to be the son of another criminal mastermind, drug lord Mutter. It is frequently lampshaded how their dysfunction is straight out of a telenovela. | |

Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace: Subverted with Jane marrying Michael. Moments before the wedding, Rafael confronts Jane, telling her he loves her and begging her not to marry Michael... But then it's revealed that was only in Rafael's head. In reality, Rafael sees how happy Jane is and decides to let her go. Played straight with Alba's wedding. A flashback reveals that a relative objected to the marriage in the middle of the ceremony due to Alba not being a virgin, causing a fight to break out. | |

The Friends Who Never Hang: Petra and Rogelio are the only two characters who never share a storyline together, with the closest thing being Rogelio's Show Within a Show serving as a Coincidental Broadcast helping Petra's hostage escape in Season 1. The two only interact in a Season 3 scene that lasts less than a minute, where both struggle to understand the other's accent. | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_2764d432 | comment |
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Petra at first seems like a loving wife, caring and supportive of Raf. However, she's just a golddigger trying to keep him married to her long enough to get access to his money. Also, she used his only sperm sample to further this goal, ruining any chances he had at having a biological family of his own. Also, she's cheating on him. It does seem like she did genuinely care about Raf early in their marriage, and that she still has some residual feelings for him, but her miscarriage and his cancer put a lot of strain on the relationship that may not be mendable. Rose is a Trophy Wife who only married her husband for his money, and not only is she having an affair with her stepdaughter, when Luisa wanted to expose the affair—not out of malice but just to clear the air between her and her father—Rose used her family's history of psychotic breaks to convince Raf and her husband that Luisa was insane and have her committed. Also, she's Sin Rostro. Michael, to Jane, is the sweet and responsible fiance who's open about his feelings. To Rafael, Michael's the cop whose jealousy drives him to spend a year wrongly trying to pin the Sin Rostro drug empire on him, which mid-Season 2 culminates in Michael accusing Rafael of turning him in for letting his criminal partner go, then punching Rafael and throwing him through a glass table in front of Jane and Mateo. Eventually, he acknowledges that he had acted less than desirably, and Jane forgives him. Rafael, when thing are going his way, seems to be a nice and easy going guy, however after breaking up with Jane, as stated above, he goes to underhanded tactics to keep Jane and Michael, from reconnecting, after finding out that Jane was going to choose Michael over him, by turning Michael in for letting Nadine walk away in return for Mateo. After Jane informs them that they are getting back together, he makes up an excuse that he worries for Mateo's safety due to Michael's job, Michael genuinely decides to quit his job on the force for Jane. Of course when Jane tells Rafael, she already knows it was just an excuse. Immediately after Jane makes it clear that she loves Michael, Rafael tries to get back together with Petra, who also turns him down, not wanting to be the rebound. After Petra turns him down, he hooks up with a random bar girl. Elena, Rafael's mother, seems to genuinely regret trading him for a payout of $10 million and tries to reconnect with him. As it turns out, Rafael is two-for-two on maternal figures who turn out to be murderous crime lords. | |

Gold Digger | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_2d4dd397 | comment |
Petra at first seems like a loving wife, caring and supportive of Raf. However, she's just a golddigger trying to keep him married to her long enough to get access to his money. Also, she used his only sperm sample to further this goal, ruining any chances he had at having a biological family of his own. Also, she's cheating on him. It does seem like she did genuinely care about Raf early in their marriage, and that she still has some residual feelings for him, but her miscarriage and his cancer put a lot of strain on the relationship that may not be mendable. | |

Latin Lover | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_2e032e41 | comment |
The Latin Lover Narrator struggles to remember Rafael's new girlfriend's name (and even her presence in the room) after the Time Skip. The character's last name is Whitman, a nod to George Michael's equally forgettable girlfriend in Arrested Development portrayed by Mae Whitman. | |

The Topic of Cancer | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_2e76947a | comment |
The Topic of Cancer: Rafael is a cancer survivor; it's the reason he can no longer have children. He is cancer-free at the start, but pretends that his cancer has relapsed knowing that this would make Luisa want to come home, bringing Rose along by extension. Season four sees Xiomara diagnosed with breast cancer. The high mortality rate of cancer greatly affects the characters, who react to it in different ways. | |

Hollywood Law | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_3322dd48 | comment |
Hollywood Law: Some of the Manipulative Bitch legal maneuvering that Petra pulls off to harass Raf would never hold up for a second in court. Almost all the circumstances surrounding controlling shares of The Marbella being transferred are utterly preposterous, such as Luisa's transfer to Rafael being undone because she later institutionalized herself as the result of Gaslighting, or Miloš acquiring a third of the hotel through an erroneous charity he set up to scam Luisa. This is even Lampshaded by the Latin Lover Narrator at one point. | |

Relationship Revolving Door | |

Relationship Revolving Door: The Love Dodecahedron between Jane, Rafael, Michael, and Petra involves a lot of this. At the beginning, Jane is engaged to Michael while Rafael is married to Petra, before Jane and Rafael leave Michael and Petra, respectively, and get together. Then Jane and Rafael break up, and Jane gets back together with Michael and marries him. Then Michael dies, and after a lengthy mourning period, Jane gets back together with Rafael. Then it turns out Michael's death was faked by Sin Rostro, and he returns with Laser-Guided Amnesia under the name Jason. Michael eventually regains his memories of Jane, and Rafael, fearing Jane will leave him for Michael again, breaks up with her. Jane then travels to Montana with Michael to sort out her feelings for him and realizes she still loves Rafael, before returning to Miami, getting back together with Rafael, and ultimately marrying him in the Grand Finale. Meanwhile, in the midst of these break-ups and reconciliations, Rafael and Petra engage in Sex with the Ex on a few occasions. It's complicated, to say the least. | |

Because Destiny Says So: Jane and Rafael’s love story.

The fact that the two seem to be destined to be together is touched several times over the course of the series, with at least Alba, Xo and Petra pointing it. | |

| Jane the Virgin / int_43dc74d0 | comment |
Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Played With when it comes to the Odd Friendship between Michael and Rogelio. On a surface level, Rogelio is the Sensitive Guy and Michael is the Manly Man; Rogelio is a pampered actor who wears concealer and enjoys pedicures, while Michael is a no-nonsense detective. When it comes to their relationships however, the dynamic is inverted; Rogelio is cagey about expressing his feelings to protect his pride and has a string of sexual conquests prior to the series, while Michael was committed to a chaste relationship with Jane before the events of the series and is often open about his feelings to a fault, which leads Rogelio to call him a "wuss" at several points. | |

Love Dodecahedron: As one would expect of a telenovela: The primary triangle is Jane, who has been dating Michael for two years and is now engaged to him, and Rafael, her baby daddy whom she kissed five years ago and also happens to be her boss. In addition to this, Rafael is married to Petra, who is sleeping with his best friend Zaznote until he dies, anyway and is also pursued by ex-suitor Lachlan, however near the end of the first season she realizes that she's not so over Rafael. Plus, each person also has their own Temporary Love Interests over the course of the series. Also, Luisa, even if her wife is unfaithful, is still married, but she's also sleeping with her ex-girlfriend. Said ex, Rose, is also Luisa and Rafael's stepmother. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_4a3e547f | comment |
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Scenes will often transition by cutting to another character saying something that sounds like a reaction to or is otherwise related to the previous scene. The characters frequently make comments about how telenovela characters would act in similar situations, whether it's Michael attempting to apologize to Jane with a romantic song playing in the background, or Jane explicitly trying to invoke a telenovela atmosphere when preparing for a romantic evening. Off that last one: In Chapter Forty-Seven, Rogelio talks about making an Americanized version of The Passions of Santos on The CW. None of the characters have ever heard of the network. | |

Obnoxious In-Laws: Rogelio's mother despises Xo; it's revealed that this is mostly Rogelio's fault, since he lied about Xo making him a Disappeared Dad because he's a "Well Done, Son" Guy who couldn't bear his mother's disapproval. | |

Shipping Torpedo | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_4bb6d104 | comment |
Shipping Torpedo: At first, both of Jane's parents independently state their disapproval of Rafael and his relationship with Jane. Both of them also prefer Michael, although they both put her happiness first. Subverted when the two get back together after the 3-year Time Skip as both Xo and Rogelio have changed their mind and are now fully supportive of their relationship, seeing how much Rafael’s grown as a person and loves both Mateo and Jane and because they both consider him completely part of the family at this point. | |

Temporary Love Interest | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_4c27e0e8 | comment |
The primary triangle is Jane, who has been dating Michael for two years and is now engaged to him, and Rafael, her baby daddy whom she kissed five years ago and also happens to be her boss. In addition to this, Rafael is married to Petra, who is sleeping with his best friend Zaznote until he dies, anyway and is also pursued by ex-suitor Lachlan, however near the end of the first season she realizes that she's not so over Rafael. Plus, each person also has their own Temporary Love Interests over the course of the series. | |

| Jane the Virgin / int_4e3dee88 | comment |
Their First Time: Deconstructed in Chapter Forty-Seven. Jane and Michael finally have sex, it's far from Idealized Sex, with Jane having trouble reaching orgasm and with their further attempts just getting more awkward. Jane realizes her feelings about losing her virginity are complicated, feeling like she has lost a part of her identity and struggling to separate sex from being sinful. After communicating her feelings to Michael, they are able to have better sex. | |

Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: Played straight with Jane and Rafael, somewhat averted with Jane and Michael: Justin Baldoni, the actor playing Rafael, is over six foot, compared to Gina Rodriguez's 5"3. This is shown realistically fairly often. On screen, Jane and Michael don't appear to be too different in height, despite Brett Dier's height being listed as similar to Baldoni's. | |

Last-Minute Baby Naming | |

Last-Minute Baby Naming: Almost subverted, as Jane and Rafael had narrowed it down to three girls names and then pick during labour. But when the baby is born a boy, they're forced to think of one last minute. They pick Mateo, after Jane's grandfather. Exaggerated with Rogelio and Darci's baby, who doesn't have a name weeks after being born because they're too hung up thinking of one. They eventually settle on 'Baby Michaelina'. | |

Artistic License – History: In-Universe, Rogelio's telenovela Tiago a Través del Tiempo obviously plays fast and loose with history, with the titular Tiago using time travel to appear at crucial, dramatized points in history to heroically correct the problems of said time period.

Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_598513bb | comment |
Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: Michael as the Responsible and his brother Billy as the Foolish. Although they have a shared criminal past, Michael became an upstanding (for the most part) police detective while Billy is still considered a good-for-nothing who consistently tries to mooch off his brother. Zig-zagged with Luisa and Rafael. Five years ago, Luisa was considered the Responsible (she was still a doctor despite her stint in rehab for alcoholism) and Rafael the Foolish (as he was without a life plan, flirting with different girls and wasting his father's money notwithstanding). It's more muddled in present-day. Season 2 casts Rafael as the Responsible (as he's managing the Marbella) and Luisa as the Foolish (having swung back into alcoholism and not-so-sane misdeeds). Both siblings eventually settle on Responsible in Season 5. | |

Chapter Fifty-Four changes the entire course of the show. Jane gets a new job with Chloe Leland, a publisher for a major firm. Xo and Bruce plan to move in with each other. Rogelio joins his girlfriend's new reality show. Petra finally finds the maternal instinct within her, quelling all fears of raising Anna and Elsa without Rafael — as his plea bargain fell through and he's going to jail for the next nine months. Luisa's new girlfriend Eileen is Rose in disguise. Michael dies from unforeseen complications with his heart due to his gunshot wound while waiting to finish his LSAT. Then the show skips ahead three years as the Jane is rushing Mateo to get ready, as the two don't want to be late for "the wedding". | |

Rafael plans to propose to Jane, but this is derailed by, of all things, Michael's seeming survival. At least River's agreed to cooperate with Rogelio on their show! | |

Identical Twin ID Tag: Parodied when Petra asks Rafael how she can tell their twin daughters apart. Rafael had the nurses put an "X" on one of them. Petra is a (presumably dyed) blonde, while Anezka is a brunette. This is used to trick the audience and other characters, like when Anezka switches their hair colours to take Petra's place. Petra invokes this quite literally after being temporarily paralyzed and impersonated by Anezka. She forces Anezka to get a tattoo reading "NOT PETRA" on her forehead; in later appearances, we see that Anezka has grown out bangs. | |

Thicker Than Water | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_76df59f1 | comment |
Thicker Than Water: A major theme. Family is given heavy importance. All over the place in Chapter Twelve. Jane is inspired to write Rogelio's onscreen death at his son's hands by remembering Alba telling her that she will always forgive Jane because they are family. She asks Rafael to forgive Luisa too, for the same reason, although he's reluctant. Petra's relationship with her mother hits a wall because she learns that her mother had lied to her for five years about her disability. By season four the main characters have managed to organize themselves into a more or less cohesive extended family, and look out for each other in their own ways. | |

Celebrity Paradox: "Una Flor" by Juanes plays constantly over the pilot and is mentioned as the theme song to The Passions of Santos. Juanes himself guest stars in Chapter 8. In Episode 14, Jane mentions Orange Is the New Black. Diane Guerrero, who plays Jane's friend Lina, plays an inmate on Orange Is the New Black. Michael calls Jane "Veronica Mars" at one point. Ryan Devlin, who plays Billy (Michael's brother) also played a significant character in the show's third season. | |

Cultural Translation | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_7d49d74a | comment |
Cultural Translation: The entire show is an Americanized version of a Venezuelan telenovela. In-universe, Rogelio pitches a telenovela version of Mad Men (Hombres Locos) as his next passion project. Rogelio later gets the go-ahead to produce an American version of The Passions of Santos. The cultural differences between telenovelas and American soaps are explored in his clash with his co-star River Fields (not Brooke Shields); the latter wants to cut down the more outlandish plot twists and dramatic aspects for a more 'grounded' narrative. Rogelio eventually gets his way. | |

Defiled Forever | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_813afa05 | comment |
Defiled Forever: The show's opening. Jane's grandmother has her (then a preteen) hold a pure white magnolia, and then tells her to crumple it up. When Jane opens her hand again, the flower is battered and bruised, and her grandmother explains that her virginity is the same way. That it's something that makes her valuable, and thus something to be guarded and treasured until her wedding night, and that once she loses it, she "can never go back." This scares young Jane, and spurs her to make a promise to abstain from sex until marriage. The flower (bruises and all) has been preserved and framed on Jane's wall, as a reminder of this lesson, and growing past this mentality and becoming more sex-positive is part of her character arc. | |

Good Girls Avoid Abortion | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_8387bb18 | comment |
Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Both played straight and later averted: Xo got pregnant as a teenager with Jane, and contemplated getting an abortion (even telling Rogelio she got one), but kept the baby anyway. Surprisingly, the devout Catholic Alba was the one pushing Xo to get an abortion. Played pretty straight with Jane, who despite getting pregnant as a virgin, keeps the baby. To the show's credit, abortion is discussed as a valid option, and Jane's initial motivation in keeping the baby is to give it to Petra and Rafael. Completely averted with Xo, whose abortion is treated very casually, happening in between episodes without much fanfare. Rogelio, Jane, and Michael all believe she made the right decision, with the drama kept to a minimum. The only conflict is with Alba's reaction. | |

First-Episode Twist | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_83fb6177 | comment |
Small bits in the pilot, leading to the First-Episode Twist as mentioned above: First, Jane catches Xo looking at her while watching The Passions of Santos. While initially it's framed to be about Xo seeing how obsessed Jane is about the TV show, it happens right after a closeup of the main character, Santos. Later, when Jane finds out she is, in fact, pregnant, she catches a tabloid with an article about "Rogelio de la Vega" and Santos' actor's face on the cover. Then, the narrator mentions that Xo's ex, Rogelio, asked her to have an abortion, and that Xo decided afterwards that she needed the baby and not Rogelio. When the narrator states that Xo saw Jane's father in plain daylight at Carla's Croquetas, "Una Flor," the theme to "The Passions of Santos," is playing. | |

Sex as Rite-of-Passage: Decon-Recon Switch. When Jane finally stops being The Virgin (because she's found someone to marry), Their First Time is... bumpy. The way it would be for someone with a Madonna-Whore Complex; the way it would be when someone who's been told that her virginity is her Incorruptible Pure Pureness has finally reached the moment of abandoning it; the way it would be in a more realistic setting. Ultimately it is a rite of passage, but not the one where Jane grows up; rather, it's the one that where Jane grows up more. | |

Spanish is also occasionally spoken by Rogelio and his parents, Liliana and Manuel. Petra and her family will occasionally sprinkle Czech in their dialogue. | |

Wham Episode | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: Chapter Twelve. Petra fakes her death in front of her mother, who inadvertently reveals she'd been lying about being handicapped the whole time. Rogelio is fired from The Passions of Santos. Oh, and Rose is Sin Rostro and she just killed her husband by drowning him in cement. Both Jane and Xo get dumped in Chapter 18. On top of that, Roman is Impaled with Extreme Prejudice, Nadine is revealed as The Mole, and Alba recovers the memory of what happed between her and Magda in Chapter Ten. And fitting for a season finale, Chapter Twenty-Two. Xiomara and Rogelio found out they got drunkenly married in Vegas, Michael and the police are hot on Nadine's trail, Petra just stole Rafael's secondary sperm sample and the most shocking twist of all: Jane's son gets kidnapped by Sin Rostro. Michael and his new partner Susanna set up a sting operation to get Rose to think Luisa is in the ICU. Rose takes the bait. Susanna ends up with a bullet to the shoulder but Rose is killed via strangulation by blue silk cord - Mutter's calling card. And again with the dramatic finales, Chapter Fourty-Four. Jane and Michael are finally married, but Michael is shot in the chest that night by Susanna, who is revealed to actually be Rose in disguise. Anezka has given Petra a drug that leaves her entire body paralyzed and unable to speak and has taken her identity, tricking Rafael into sleeping with her. And on top of all that, Xo realizes she is pregnant after a one night stand with Rogelio's nemesis. Chapter Fifty-Four changes the entire course of the show. Jane gets a new job with Chloe Leland, a publisher for a major firm. Xo and Bruce plan to move in with each other. Rogelio joins his girlfriend's new reality show. Petra finally finds the maternal instinct within her, quelling all fears of raising Anna and Elsa without Rafael — as his plea bargain fell through and he's going to jail for the next nine months. Luisa's new girlfriend Eileen is Rose in disguise. Michael dies from unforeseen complications with his heart due to his gunshot wound while waiting to finish his LSAT. Then the show skips ahead three years as the Jane is rushing Mateo to get ready, as the two don't want to be late for "the wedding". Chapter Eighty-One, which the narrator straight up warns will be full of surprises. Alba becomes an American citizen, and marries her love interest Jorge in a Citizenship Marriage. Petra and Jane R. decide to move in together, but then the latter finds out that Petra really was guilty and shoots someone to protect Petra. Rafael plans to propose to Jane, but this is derailed by, of all things, Michael's seeming survival. At least River's agreed to cooperate with Rogelio on their show! | |

Overly Long Name | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_8f900ccd | comment |
Overly Long Name: Mateo Gloriano Rogelio Solano Villanuevanote "Mateo" after his dead great-grandfather, "Gloriano" to match his female family members' common name of "Gloriana", "Rogelio" for his grandfather, and "Solano Villanueva" from his father and mother, respectively, but he is mostly just referred to as "Mateo". Jane and Rafael lampshade that his name is kind of long after the Last-Minute Baby Naming. | |

| Jane the Virgin / int_901dbf9a | comment |
Cliffhanger: The season one finale. At the conclusion, for a moment everything is perfect... then Jane's son gets kidnapped by Sin Rostro. Other minor sequel hooks include: there being a second sample of Rafael's sperm, the tracker in Nadine's phone, and Rogelio and Xiomara's drunken Vegas wedding. The second season ends with Rose being Not Quite Dead and running off with Luisa, Xo being pregnant, Anezka leaving Petra comatose and switching places with her, then sleeping with Rafael, and Michael being shot by Susanna on his and Jane's wedding night. Season four ends with Michael coming Back from the Dead and J.R. shooting her blackmailer, whose identity is not revealed. | |

Diabolical Mastermind | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_9080e641 | comment |
Diabolical Mastermind: Sin Rostro, "The Man Without a Face," is apparently a major drug dealer who completely vanished six months prior to the start of the story, but also appears to be responsible for a series of incidents that happen in the show. Zaz is supposed to be Sin Rostro's point man until his murder in Chapter Two, then "Disgusting Tom" is a bellboy that may have been connected to his murder, but is murdered himself—apparently by Sin Rostro, if Tom's last words are to be believed—in Chapter Five. Michael and the Miami PD have been investigating this case since before the start of the series. Mutter is another one, who seems to have recently resurfaced. Michael and the Miami PD seem to be on the hunt for her too. | |

The Big Damn Kiss | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_9438e550 | comment |
The Big Damn Kiss: The narrator lampshades how Jane secretly wants one telenovela-style, cheesy background and falling snow and all. Her first kiss with Michael was decidedly not this, but was still very sweet (with ceiling dust standing in for snow). Her second kiss with Rafael is this, with Foot Popping and flower petals (standing in for snow) and all. Her second first kiss with Michael goes into up-against-a-wall mode, complete with accidentally triggering an artificial snow button. | |

Betty and Veronica | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_94e4c8ab | comment |
Betty and Veronica: Has two: Jane (Archie) between Jane's nice, safe, cop boyfriend-turned-fiance Michael (Betty) and Jane's sexy, rich, and emotionally troubled accidental babydaddy Rafael (Veronica). This dynamic between the three of them is highlighted in Chapter 15, which contrasts Jane and Rafael's fantasy whirlwind romance and her more grounded but genuine relationship with Michael. In season 2, Jane gets a Third-Option Love Interest when she tires of the triangle. Both Betty and Veronica "win" here — Jane marries Michael first; after his Disney Death, she ultimately marries Rafael after a few years and much healing. Rafael as Archie between Jane and Petra. Petra is his wife of five years, but she is a glamorous manipulator with a shady past. Jane is his already-engaged employee, but she's kind, down-to-earth, and represents the familial ideal he is chasing. | |

The Hecate Sisters: Played with. Although the series revolves around Jane (the virgin), her mother Xiomara, and her grandmother Alba, and Alba is definitely the firmest and most world-wise, Xiomara is flightier, more irresponsible, and more of a "seductress" than her sensible daughter Jane. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Small bits in the pilot, leading to the First-Episode Twist as mentioned above: First, Jane catches Xo looking at her while watching The Passions of Santos. While initially it's framed to be about Xo seeing how obsessed Jane is about the TV show, it happens right after a closeup of the main character, Santos. Later, when Jane finds out she is, in fact, pregnant, she catches a tabloid with an article about "Rogelio de la Vega" and Santos' actor's face on the cover. Then, the narrator mentions that Xo's ex, Rogelio, asked her to have an abortion, and that Xo decided afterwards that she needed the baby and not Rogelio. When the narrator states that Xo saw Jane's father in plain daylight at Carla's Croquetas, "Una Flor," the theme to "The Passions of Santos," is playing. The hooker hired to set up Rafael comes clean with Jane, mentioning that she'd been separated from her own son for some time, and during Jane's lactation classes, the overdramatic teacher warns parents not to let the nurses snatch their baby. Guess what happens to Jane's son when he's finally born. In Chapter Ten the Latin Lover Narrator very explicitly hints that Michael is going to die. Jane attends a writing workshop in Chapter Sixteen. The story they are discussing ends on a twist where two characters are revealed to be the same person all along. In the next episode, Aaron Zazo is revealed to have been Roman Zazo Faking the Dead all along. Rogelio is furious a Laser-Guided Amnesia plotline is cut from his Show Within a Show because the writers found it to be too cheesy of a telenovela trope. Just one episode later, Michael comes Back from the Dead... with Laser-Guided Amnesia. There are many hints that the Latin Lover Narrator is a grown up Mateo. When Jane tells Mateo he can read her novel when he's older, the Narrator mentions that he's now read it immediately after. The narrator claims to be good at telling twins apart since he's had a lot of experience with twins - which makes sense as he grew up with Anna and Elsa. When Jane brings Mateo to his first day of kindergarten, the Narrator wistfully says "ah, memories". In the episode where Mateo receives an ADHD diagnosis the Narrator is also acting oddly, confessing that he's got a hard time keeping focus at various points throughout the episode. | |

Amicable Exes | |

Amicable Exes: Even though Michael is still in love with Jane, and she knows it, the two still share a close and friendly relationship, with Michael helping to sweep Alba's immigration troubles under the rug, and expressly telling Xo to keep it from Jane, lest she think he did it to win her back When Jane finds out, she immediately goes to see him and without saying a thing, hugs him tightly. Jane even asks Michael to be Mateo's Godfather, even before learning the full extent of lengths he went to ensure Mateo's safe return. And later subverted, since they get back together and eventually married. Rogelio and his Ex-Wife appear to be this. Seems somewhat necessary as she's also his manager. Rafael and Petra are on the verge of becoming this as the two are now business partners and co-owners of his hotel, until Jane helps him set her up to reveal her true colors. Even still they seem to be moving past it for the sake of their unborn babies. Jane and Rafael. While things were awkward at first for them since he still had feelings for her and she was moving on, having fallen back in love with Michael, they're now happy co-parenting together and have zero-ish bad blood between them at all. After Jane marries Michael, Rafael finally is able to move on, and the two of them are comfortable enough with each other to joke about her sex life with Michael. Rogelio and Xo, the two broke it off because she didn't want to have anymore children, and he wanted to put some space between the two so he could deal. After Jane get's re-engaged to Michael, however, they both set aside their personal problems to help plan her wedding, as well as continue to be doting grandparents to Mateo. They get back together in the season 3 finale. | |

And I Must Scream: Anezka is left completely paralyzed and unable to speak as a result of her past seizures, with only her eyes being able to move. It gets even worse when it's revealed that it's actually Petra that is paralyzed because Anezka drugged her and switched their identities. Petra can't do anything at all except watch as Anezka steals her identity and leaves her in the hospital. | |

| Jane the Virgin / int_a94eaaa4 | comment |
Odd Friendship: Jane and Petra hated each other in the first season. After realizing that Petra will soon be a part of her family, due to Petra carrying Mateo's twin half-sisters Jane begins to show concern and support for Petra. Petra in turn ends up sticking up for Jane, and secretly subletting the house that she and Michael are interested in, so they could afford the rent. | |

Deliberate Values Dissonance | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_aabe2fb | comment |
Deliberate Values Dissonance: How morally reprehensible the messages in Rogelio's telenovelas sometimes are is presumably intentional. In one, he (a man) sleeps with a lesbian, which is just unspeakably lesbophobic. In addition to the existence of multiple canon lesbians who not once show romantic/sexual interest in men, however, there's also the fact that an Abduction Is Love relationship in Rogelio's past telenovela encourages his stalker Lola to kidnap him and make him "fall in love" with her in the same way Rogelio's character got the woman he imprisoned to "fall in love" with him. Programs marketed as harmless romance can perpetuate incredibly damaging notions; it's Truth in Television, unfortunately. | |

Cutting Back to Reality: Many of the show's Fantasy Sequences are initially presented as reality, such as Xo's fear that Jane and Rogelio will spend their first meeting together as father and daughter burning Xo in effigy or Jane's disastrous speech that ends in her water breaking at her Class Reunion. Subverted in Chapter Fifteen where the Latin Lover Narrator has to point out that something really is happening and isn't just in Jane's head. | |

After getting to the hospital, her contraction stay at every 2 minutes all night and even when she finally starts pushing, it still takes a while. | |

Madonna-Whore Complex: Deconstructed in Chapter Forty-Seven. Jane is writing about her great-aunt Cecilia, and she can't figure out whether Cecilia was promiscuous like Alba said, or if she was very devout and virginal. All of this is Jane projecting her own feelings, as she just lost her virginity and is having trouble reconciling sex as a non-sinful thing. | |

Wedding Finale | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_bc80725e | comment |
Wedding Finale: Given that this is a show steeped in the drama and romance of telenovelas, every season finale involves one of the Villanueva women getting married. The season two finale is about Jane and Michael's. They pull in all the tropes—Jane and Michael fighting at the rehearsal, Jane worrying that they hadn't discussed basic wedding things, Jane almost not making it to the wedding, Rafael almost asking Jane to not do it, and the wedding still happens, and it's beautiful. Xiomara and Rogelio's second wedding occurs in the season three finale. The end of season 4 is Alba's Citizenship Marriage to Jorge. And the Grand Finale is Jane's wedding to Rafael, her Happily Ever After. Discussed as well, since many of her childhood telenovelas ended with a wedding. | |

After learning some lessons about spontaneity, communication, and processing one's loss of virginity, Jane and Michael are able to have mutually satisfying sex. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out Emilio partially buried in cement, with head and hands visible may look familiar to some. In season 2 Rogelio is held captive and abused for weeks by a Loony Fan who is angry about one of the shows he worked on ending. The name of the show was "La Miseria". When Petra visits Magda in prison, the latter claims that "the red-haired lady in the kitchen is trying to poison her". Petra decides to call her twin daughters Elsa and Anna. She insists that she wasn't inspired by the Disney movie. The Latin Lover Narrator struggles to remember Rafael's new girlfriend's name (and even her presence in the room) after the Time Skip. The character's last name is Whitman, a nod to George Michael's equally forgettable girlfriend in Arrested Development portrayed by Mae Whitman. Anezka catches up on Game of Thrones and takes a liking to the character Sansa, and the Latin Lover Narrator also mentions the show multiple times including when Anezka is Killed Off for Real, noting that she is not Faking the Dead again and is "Ned Stark dead". Rogelio's Show Within a Show in Season 5 recreates the iconic shot of the Xenomorph breathing down Ripley's neck in Alien. | |

Abilene Paradox: One episode has Petra invite Jane and her family to a Mother's Day brunch before Anezka throws a wrench into their friendship. Jane, her mother, and her grandmother don't want to do go because it interferes with their established traditions for Mother's Day; later, Jane and Petra fight on the phone due to poor communication, and both refuse to cancel because they want to seem like the bigger person. Rafael also doesn't feel like being there because of external problems, but all parties go for the sake of their large mixed family. This results in a lunch so awkward that the narrator invites the audience to make a Drinking Game out of it. | |

"Eureka!" Moment: Michael realizes the numbers tied to Sin Rostro are for a shipping container, not a cell phone, when he watches the docks after Jane leaves him. After Michael finds the underground surgery beneath the Marbella, the exact reason for its existence still evades him—until a few hotel guests who look like they've had some work done—some more than others—walk by. Then it hits him. When Rogelio mentions that he is constantly being photographed by paparazzi during the Melee at the Marbella, Jane realizes she can disprove Petra's story of what happened to Alba the night of the Paloma Awards using photos from the party. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: Jane calls Michael out for not telling her about Petra's affair, and breaks off their engagement. Petra's lover was tied to Sin Rostro, who may have had two people killed at the hotel, so not telling Jane about Petra's affair was in part Michael's trying to protect her from actual harm. However, Michael was also pressuring Petra to break it off so she'd get the baby despite knowing how important it was to Jane that the baby grew up in a stable household. It didn't help that he'd previously handwaved Jane's suspicions with "hormones." In turn Michael calls out Jane after learning that almost a mere day after calling off their engagement she began seeing Rafael. Jane is upset at Xo for lying to her about her father her entire life. Luisa deploys an understated one at Rafael: how could he force her into a mental institution when he knows how terrified she would be of being in one? Rafael is shocked, since he was expecting a typical series of apologies and promises to improve herself, not a calling out, but manages to brush most of it off. Jane later gets upset with Rafael, after he refuses to fire Petra, which technically he can't since she owns a third of the Marbella, after learning that Magda had pushed Alba down the stairs. She gets even more upset when he refuses to believe her and her grandmother and implies that Alba had been delusional when naming Magda as her attacker. When Jane learns that Rafael paid off a friend of Nadine's to testify against Michael, she completely flips. Petra gives Rafael one after his self pity and selfishness is preventing Jane and Michael from moving into their dream house 45 minutes outside of Miami. | |

Horrible Hollywood: A Lighter and Softer take than most of the show's contemporaries, considering Jane the Virgin aired during the height of the Me Too Movement, but Hollywood is shown in a relatively unglamorous light. Actors are universally vain, every production is plagued by in-universe Executive Meddling, and even Rogelio treats crew members and writers as second-class citizens and is a Prima Donna Director whenever he's put in charge. | |

Sex with the Ex: Rose and Luisa broke it off sometime before the start of the series, but begin doing it again after Luisa calls her for counsel.

Petra and Lachlan (whom she had previously left for Rafael) do it too, although they're each doing it to manipulate the other. Petra and Rafael as well, on more than one occasion although one of those times Rafael only thought he was sleeping with Petra, while in fact it was Anezka pretending to be Petra. | |

Contrived Coincidence | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: As is expected of a telenovela, Jane's pregnancy is rife with them. In order for things to happen as they did, Jane and Petra had to go to the same OB at the same time, Jane met (and kissed) Petra's husband five years ago, he's her new boss, Luisa had to botch her job spectacularly (thanks to the timing of her wife cheating on her then calling her back) and inseminate Jane instead of Petra (who is being investigated by Jane's boyfriend as of the first episode)... it's a very small world, apparently. Lampshaded in "Chapter Forty-Five", where Petra's anesthetic wears off at the exact same moment Michael gets out of surgery, distracting the cop keeping an eye on Anezka (who had been impersonating Petra) long enough for Anezka to inject Petra with another dose. | |

Mid-Season Twist: Season One: Rose is Sin Rostro, and she kills the Sin Rostro Red Herring, Emilio. Season Three: Michael suddenly dies, and the show does a three year Time Skip. Season Four: Anezka frames Petra for Gaslighting Luisa, then falls to her death from The Marbella (apparently being murdered by Petra). Jane and Rafael get together again. | |

Third-Option Love Interest | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_e30a4813 | comment |
Jane (Archie) between Jane's nice, safe, cop boyfriend-turned-fiance Michael (Betty) and Jane's sexy, rich, and emotionally troubled accidental babydaddy Rafael (Veronica). This dynamic between the three of them is highlighted in Chapter 15, which contrasts Jane and Rafael's fantasy whirlwind romance and her more grounded but genuine relationship with Michael. In season 2, Jane gets a Third-Option Love Interest when she tires of the triangle. Both Betty and Veronica "win" here — Jane marries Michael first; after his Disney Death, she ultimately marries Rafael after a few years and much healing. | |

And again with the dramatic finales, Chapter Fourty-Four.

Anezka has given Petra a drug that leaves her entire body paralyzed and unable to speak and has taken her identity, tricking Rafael into sleeping with her. And on top of all that, Xo realizes she is pregnant after a one night stand with Rogelio's nemesis. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending: The point of the show.

In the Grand Finale Jane, Xiomara and Alba are married to Rafael, Rogelio and Jorge, respectively. Jane's novel sells for a whopping half a million dollars. Rogelio's new series becomes a Breakthrough Hit in America. Luisa is accepted by her family again after killing the Big Bad, Rose. Xo is accepted to a nursing program and moves to New York with Rogelio. Petra and J.R. reconnect. Michael has returned to his life in Montana and is engaged to his old rival, Charlie. Lastly, in the Distant Future, Mateo becomes a successful voice actor and is revealed to be the Latin Lover Narrator. | |

| Jane the Virgin / int_f9876f7e | comment |
Sin Rostro is fond of powdered donuts, and donut powder residue at a crime scene tips off the cops that she is Faking the Dead. | |

Stripper/Cop Confusion | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_f9b36fec | comment |
Stripper/Cop Confusion: Jane and Michael first met when he tried to break up her rowdy 21st birthday party while on duty. She mistook him for a stripper until she fired his gun at the ceiling. | |

Running Gag | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Rogelio's insistence that he "doesn't pop in peach" when selecting his wardrobe, his constant lies about his real age, and his repeated bragging about his social media following count and friendship with Gloria Estefan. Any time one of Sin Rostro's former lovers winds up in a police interview, they can't help but lose their train of thought describing their transcendent sexual escapades with her. Rafael randomly picked the names Elsa and Anna for Petra's twins, which naturally means she has to constantly correct people that they're not named after the Frozen characters. (Elsa is later referred to as Ellie to stop the connection to you-know-what.) Rogelio repeatedly accidentally causing Amusing Injuries to his co-star, River Fields. Xo (and occasionally Rogelio on her behalf) playing the "cancer card" to get out of things. | |

Fun with Subtitles | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_fdb355db | comment |
Fun with Subtitles: And how. The onscreen chyrons are being input by the narrator, who happens to be the snarkiest character on the show: One of the establishing character moments for the chyrons is when it lists Rafael as a Playboy, scratches it out, and replaces it with Trapped husband. Shortly after that, it focuses on his sister Luisa, who is Married* *In some states, establishing her as being interested in women. "Chapter Two": Luisa is described as an Artificial inseminat(Beat)er (sp?) Rafael is described as The father of the baby(the word "baby" is deleted)milkshake. In Chapter Four, the subtitles describe a "Pre-Cana" as Catholic marriage counseling, led by a priest* Chapter Five provides some actual fun with subtitles, by giving what is otherwise official police dialogue between Michael and Rafael subtitles indicating what their actual dialogue is about—Jane. When Rogelio mentions Twitter for whatever reason, there's an 80% chance that chyrons will post relevant hashtags to whatever he's talking about. Chapter Nineteen provides karaoke subtitles, in which Rogelio sings in Spanish and the subtitles highlight the relevant portions of the English translation as he sings. Chapter Twenty-Four has Luisa exclaiming the name of a person—or what she thinks is his name—and the subtitles are thoughtful enough to supply the person's actual name. | |

Happy Ending | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_fec2b522 | comment |
Happy Ending: By the end of the series, the main characters' dreams and romantic plots are neatly resolved. Jane sells her book for big money, Rafael has disentangled himself from the Marbella, has a better relationship with his family, and marries Jane, Petra plants the seeds of expanding the Marbella and gets back together with JR, Michael has found a new life in Montana, and his fiancee is pregnant, Rogelio's passion project premieres to acclaim, Xiomara pursues her new dream of nursing school and manages to balance staying with her family and Rogelio's show, and Alba is happily married to Jorge. Furthermore, since the narrator is a grown-up Mateo, it is implied that Jane's family's story, detailed in her book, is retold somehow... perhaps as a telenovela? | |

Adaptation Inspiration | |
| Jane the Virgin / int_ff74ef12 | comment |
Adaptation Inspiration: While ostensibly based on the Venezuelan telenovela Juana la virgen, it mostly only retains the basic idea of a virgin getting artifically inseminated and the issues that develop afterward as well as the telenovela style (which the show pokes fun at as well). In-universe, Rogelio attempts to create a telenovela adaptation of the series Mad Men titled Hombres Locos. While both are about a man who works for an advertising agency, by the end of Hombres Locos's first episode "Don Juan Draper" has already shot a man and begun to sell cocaine. | |
