The season consisted of 13 episodes, and concluded on September 22, 2013, with a season high of nearly 3 million viewers.[1] The pilot episode has received positive reviews from critics.[2] It tells the story of five Latina women who works as maids in Beverly Hills, and how they are affected when one of their friends, Flora, is murdered for knowing a secret.

Plot
[edit]The show opens with the murder of maid Flora Hernandez (Paula Garces) on a summer night of June 2013, and a man by the name of Eddie Suarez (Eddie Hassell) is arrested for the crime, which he allegedly did not commit. His mother, Marisol (Ana Ortiz) takes a job as a local Beverly Hills maid for Taylor (Brianna Brown) and Michael Stappord (Brett Cullen) in order to befriend three other local maids that were once friends with Flora. These include Rosie Falta (Dania Ramirez), a sweet and kindhearted maid who works for movie actors Peri (Mariana Klaveno) and Spence Westmore (Grant Show), and ends up having an affair with the latter; Carmen Luna (Roselyn Sanchez), an aspiring singer who works for Latino popstar Alejandro Rubio (Matt Cedeño), and eventually falls for her co-worker, Sam Alexander (Wolé Parks); and Zoila Diaz (Judy Reyes), longtime housekeeper for Genevieve Delatour (Susan Lucci). Zoila's daughter, Valentina Diaz (Edy Ganem), also stars; a 19-year-old wannabe fashion designer who has the 'hots' for Genevieve's son, Remi (Drew Van Acker). The season wraps up with Marisol discovering who killed Flora, and her son getting out of jail; Peri finds out about Rosie and Spence's affair and gets revenge by calling immigration; Carmen agrees to marry Alejandro in order to make the press believe he is not a homosexual, but this leads to the end of her romance with Sam; and Zoila has to wish her daughter a farewell as Valentina flies to Africa to be with Remi for the next year.

1 | 1 | "Pilot" | Paul McGuigan | Teleplay by : Marc Cherry Story by : Marc Chery | June 23, 2013 | 1.99[12] | |
The series follows the lives of five Beverly Hills Hispanic maids as they navigate through the messy lives of their wealthy and snobbish employers. Rosie (Dania Ramirez), a single mother who left her son back in Mexico when her husband died, works as the housemaid/nanny for a pair of successful actors, Spence Westmore and his self-absorbed wife Peri. Aspiring singer Carmen (Roselyn Sanchez) hopes that her new pop star employer Alejandro can help kick-start her career, but Odessa, his very loyal and humorless Russian housekeeper and her boss, will stop at nothing to stand in the way of her dreams. Zoila (Judy Reyes) is the senior maid for Genevieve, a co-dependent, drug-addicted, emotionally unstable wealthy woman. She works alongside her teenage daughter Valentina (Edy Ganem), who has a crush on Genevieve's son, Remi. Newcomer Marisol (Ana Ortiz), whose appearance, knowledge and lack of a Spanish accent does not fit the description of the four aforementioned maids, is hired to clean the home of Taylor, the insecure second wife to a wealthy man, named Michael, whose ex-wife is stalking him. The maids turn to one another for support when their friend and fellow maid Flora (Paula Garcés) is brutally murdered at the home of her employers, the shallow and secretive Evelyn and Adrian Powell, at the biggest society event of the year just moments after she was supposedly raped by Adrian, which Evelyn believed was an affair and blamed Flora for having seduced Adrian. A young waiter, named Eddie, is found holding the bloody knife used in the killing at the scene and is arrested, but Flora in actuality was killed by another unseen person after she wrote a letter accusing the person of the crime. It is revealed at the end (unknown to both the other maids and their employers) that Marisol has infiltrated this inner high society circle to find out who set her son (Eddie the waiter) up. | |||||||

Meanwhile, Carmen takes advantage of the house and her co-worker Sam, while Alejandro is away. Carmen reveals to Sam that she refuses to be in a relationship because her last boyfriend wasn't supportive of her dreams. Valentina bonds with Remi over their shared love of old movies and manages to ingratiate herself with his college friends. Zoila, disapproving of this, convinces Genevieve to throw a party where Remi's friends will see her at work. Afterwards, Valentina admits her feelings to Genevieve who agrees to help her. Taylor refuses to let Marisol continue working for the Powells because she considers them horrible people. Adrian (rightly suspecting that Marisol is not who she appears to be) convinces Taylor to let Marisol to continue to help them with the housekeeping. Marisol discovers Flora's note which Adrian immediately snatches. Marisol (who earlier in the beginning of the episode relived through flashbacks about how she began her quest to clear her son's name) visits Eddie in jail where he tells her that he and Flora dated and added that at the time of the murder the real killer knocked him out and placed the knife on him; Marisol, who also memorized portions of the note, believes it may hold a clue and tells her son she'll search for it. As Adrian reads Flora's letter, she accuses someone of not protecting her from an unknown man. Adrian immediately burns the note. | |||||||

11 | 11 | "Cleaning Out the Closet" | John Scott | Victor Levin | September 8, 2013 | 2.49[22] | |
Alejandro and Carmen offer different opinions about his new relationship, as Alejandro (who wants to keep his sexual identity a secret from the public), considers dumping his boyfriend (a "neat freak") after he lets him stay with him, leading Carmen to tell his lover the truth that he wants to end it. Eventually, the guy destroys everything in response, but not before seeking revenge by giving a photo of the two together to a tabloid paper. Marisol gets closer to the truth by testing the theory to see if Remi knew anything about Flora being pregnant, prompting Ida to become suspicious of Remi and warning Marisol about Michael, who happens to be the lawyer of both Remi and the supposed killer. At the same time, Taylor becomes jealous of Michael spending time seeing Olivia at the hospital, so Marisol suggest to Taylor that she should be supportive by going with Michael, who then suggests that she should keep an eye on Marisol's activities after Taylor tells him that she was eavesdropping on his phone conversation in his office room; Rosie cleans up a serious mess for Peri, who accidentally causes a hit-and-run on a jogger, who survived the incident and saw the driver. This causes Rosie to distrust Peri and causes Rosie to ask Spence if they want to be together, while Peri convinces her studio boss to help her bring Rosie's son to America. Philippe and Genevieve grow closer, but Zoila does not believe that he is changed his philandering ways, so she uses a scheme to show proof, along with a distrusting Remi learning the truth about his father after he knocks him for insulting Valentina, then whispering something in his ear (indicating that Remi knows something about Philippe and Flora). But the plan backfires as Genevieve tells Zoila that she wants to go ahead with the wedding plans. | |||||||

Remi, who has forgiven Philippe after admitting that he was trying to protect him from being accused as the father of Flora's unborn child, is accepted to medical school and will spend a year in Africa, but he wants Valentina to come with him and Zoila is making sure that does not happen. Meanwhile, Genevieve asks Evelyn to hold a wedding reception at the Powells', whose own marriage could be headed for a costly divorce after Evelyn tells Adrian that she wants to end theirs because of Adrian's admission that he does love her but will not be intimate with her; Marisol learns more of Philippe's involvement with Flora after Zoila tells her about Remi hitting his father, leading Philippe to learn from Michael about Marisol and when her identity is discovered Philippe tells Michael that he will take care of the situation, making Michael nervous and decides to warn Marisol anyway, but Taylor, who now knows the truth, wants her to stay. Unfortunately, Philippe hired a hitman to kill Marisol, but instead shoots the pregnant Taylor by mistake. | |||||||
13 | 13 | "Totally Clean" | Larry Shaw | Marc Cherry | September 22, 2013 | 2.95[1] | |
As Taylor learns that she has lost the baby, she tells Michael it's time to tell Marisol about Flora. Marisol finally comes clean to the other maids about herself as well as her quest to clear her son, and they all band together to help her expose Flora's real killer. Carmen's relationship with Sam and her friendship with Odessa is about to get an unwelcome reaction as Alejandro asks Carmen to marry him in order to keep his sexual orientation a secret by helping her finally get a record deal as part of the pact. Meanwhile, Rosie and Spence's relationship is discovered by Peri after she overhears the conversation on the phone from Miguel. Remi's disappearance has Genevieve worried and Valentina disappointed as Genevieve's engagement party nears, with Philippe attempting to convince Genevieve to elope after the party by taking her out of the country while Valentina becomes furious about Zoila lying to her about the letter she had written about Remi. The news of Taylor and Michael at the hospital prompts Adrian and Evelyn to postpone their divorce and suspect that something behind it isn't right when Philippe asks for their private jet. At the engagement party, the ladies finally corner the real killer, as Marisol confronts Philippe in the same room where Flora was killed, but after Evelyn discovers her and has her escorted out, it's Adrian who kills Philippe by poisoning his drink upon learning that Philippe was the person who showed up the night uninvited and stabbed Flora to death, of which he would later confess to Michael as Marisol found out at the hospital. The ladies, unaware of Philippe's demise (Adrian and Evelyn tell the police that he committed suicide), tell the police that he confessed out loud before he died, helping Marisol and clearing Eddie of Flora's murder. However, this happy ending is stunted when ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement) officers arrive to arrest Rosie during a celebration of Eddie's release, as Peri (who was the one who called the ICE) looks on in the background. |
