Cesar goes from optimistic cutie to brooding ball of angst real quick. Though he begins the season by reconnecting with Monse, it all goes downhill when Cuchillos calls for Lil' Ricky's head and his father comes back into town. The already-contentious air between Cesar and his older brother gets further tainted by the presence of the man Cesar idolizes. While he bonds with his estranged father, he butts heads with Spooky, who attempts to warn him that the older man will leave them behind again.
As Cuchillos's threats grow direr, the gang are forced to go to Spooky to ask for his help. It's when Spooky doesn't return after several days that Cesar starts to spiral in despair. He is the most willing of all the teens to go ahead with their murder scheme, which makes sense since he believes Spooky is dead at the time. During the intense trek through the forest to find his brother, Cesar lashes out at his seemingly apathetic friends, telling them he doesn't want to be a burden or liability and that they're more than welcome to leave. They quickly discover the body of Cuchillos, but the damage has already been done.
As Spooky makes a truce with 19th Street, Cesar warns his brother that it won't last. Cesar tells him that the peace isn't real and Spooky is being foolish. And in the end, Cesar becomes a self-fulfiling prophecy and is revealed to have taken over Oscar's role as the head of the Santos and is going by Lil' Spooky. He has become the person his friends have been fighting for him not to be since season one.
