In the seventh episode of "Neon", the spotlight is on Isa and Santi, hard at work recording their latest track, ‘Corillo,’ with Ness and Felix closely observing. However, Ness is unsettled as she finds the lyrics disjointed, with Santi's focus on commitment clashing with Isa's emphasis on independence.

When Ness candidly shares her views with Santi, he misinterprets it as envy. Convinced of Isa's influence on his career, he's thrilled to learn their song will premiere during her New Year's special. Yet, despite his enthusiasm, Isa asserts their romance is purely for show, and any affection must be public only.

Amidst these dynamics, Ness mentions an impending interview with Celeste about ‘Isanti’, their celebrity couple persona. Isa outlines her off-limit topics for the chat, drawing apathy from Ness.

Parallelly, Mia seeks a fresh start by approaching Javier Luna with a dual-managerial proposal for his music and magic gigs. Intrigued, Javier proposes a meeting at the forthcoming Daddy Yankee party.

As 'Isanti' faces Celeste in the interview, they project an enamored image. Isa discusses her evolution in the Reggaeton space and confronts being 'whitewashed' in her career. When Celeste questions the authenticity of 'Isanti,' Isa evades, feigning a headache.

Celeste expresses skepticism about 'Isanti' to Santi, admires his progress, and departs. Isa, sensing Santi's fondness for Celeste, cautions him sternly.

Anticipation brews as the group readies for the Daddy Yankee party. However, Isa opts to take only Santi, leaving Ness and Felix to find alternate transport. Yet, their spirits remain unbroken.

At the gathering, Isa's diva behavior overshadows the event, reprimanding Santi for his fanboy moment with Daddy Yankee. Concurrently, Mia's struggles to enter the party end with unexpected help from Oscar. Once inside, Javier confirms her managerial role, leading to a comical reunion with Oscar.

Ness grabs Daddy Yankee's attention, hoping he'll dissuade Santi from modifying the song's lyrics. Isa, on a separate note, fires Felix, hinting at a collaboration with Lin Manuel-Miranda. This decision triggers a clash between Felix and Santi. Feeling unsupported, Felix seeks solace with Ness, who introduces him to the calming waves and proposes managing him.

Santi finds a confidante in Celeste, and the two tread a flirtatious path. However, Celeste retracts, concerned about compromising her journalistic integrity, having recently covered 'Isanti'.

Felix and Ness's attempt to reconcile with Santi backfires, leading to more rifts. Amidst the chaos, Ness encounters Daddy Yankee, who's keen on collaborating with Santi after appreciating the song. However, given the tense atmosphere, Ness diplomatically defers the opportunity.

Santi's recent decisions have been detrimental to his relationships, especially after collaborating with Isa on 'Corillo'. Isa's self-centeredness becomes evident as she belittles Santi's ambitions. For his success, distancing from Isa might be essential.

With Ness and Felix's newfound alliance, and their split from Santi, the climax builds: will Santi introspect and amend his ways? The show's final episode awaits.
