"Jorge understands that mother-daughter relationships can be complex."
Both lines show him recognizing complicated family bonds: in the first he accepts that the child "belongs with Lourdes," and in the second he explains that Pilar's feelings aren't simple hatred but an undeveloped love. The other choices are not supported by these excerpts.
