Jane the Virgin season 4 episode 4 preview: Jane – Rafael tension galore

What’s coming up on Jane the Virgin season 4 episode 4 when it comes to Jane and Rafael? Well, it can be mostly described in one word: Tension. While we’re not sure that anyone loves conflict per se, you are still going to see a whole lot of it over this episode with so many different characters involved.

At the crux of this story, though, is something very simple: Rafael making the decision to allow Mateo to meet his new girlfriend after Jane was so hesitant when it comes to make these introductions herself. This does show a fairly fundamental rift when it comes to how these two parties want to handle things with their son — we’re not saying that one of them is right and one of them is wrong, but them not being on the same page is something that could be harmful for both of them in the long run.

If you look below now, you can get a little bit more in the way of insight as to what’s coming:

IT’S NOT WHO YOU ARE – When Jane (Gina Rodriguez) learns that Rafael (Justin Baldoni) introduced Mateo to his new girlfriend, Katherine (guest star Alexis Meneses), without her consent she gets angry since she thinks Katherine has a negative influence on both Rafael and Mateo. Jane turns to Petra (Yael Grobglas) for help with the situation with Rafael, but Petra makes Jane an offer she can’t refuse. Now that the baby is born, Rogelio (Jaime Camil) and Darci (guest star Justina Machado) struggle to choose a name for the baby they both agree on. Meanwhile, Xo (Andrea Navedo) is focused on growing the dance studio and decides to go into business with an unlikely foe. Ivonne Coll also stars. Gina Lamar directed the episode written by Deirdre Shaw & Chantelle M. Wells (#404). Original airdate 11/03/2017.

Consider this story another sign that Petra, despite her ever-changing relationships with many of these characters, will still find herself in a position of importance on the show. We’ll see how things evolve from here as the story picks up steam.
