Caray, Caray!

“…but he’s a bronco.” And so begins our episode!

Fernando laments his misfortune. A bronco and a model who does not like horses!

Pilar shouts at her friend. She doesn’t want to film the commercial anymore. She fell off a horse when she was two years old. She doesn’t care that she promised. Her life and integrity come first. She’s not going to the commercial. punto…

Alicia attempts to enter the grounds where the commercial will be shot. The security guard wants to see her identification. Oh wait! He recognizes her. He brings out a black board with her picture on it. He’s been told that she’s “blacklisted.” Tomas wanders in around the van behind Alicia. He hides in the bushes and watches. The security guard tells her to move. She tells him that she’s not on the list because she is the model and received a late notice. The security guard doesn’t believe her and tells her to leave again.

Irmita calls Pilar who lays in her bed yelling at the phone that she’s not going because she’s scared. Irmita and Lola start to freak. Julieta asks if anyone will eat her mole if Pilar doesn’t show up. Martha assures her that it will definitely be eaten. Irmita yells at Martha. Fernando comes on the scene and asks what’s wrong. Pilar is not here! He asks Lety if Pilar didn’t show up because of last night. Julieta interrupts with some coffee. She keeps talking and Fernando tries to tell her thank you, but rush her off. Fernando says he’s going to “kill” someone. Why hasn’t Pilar shown up?

Erasmo watches as the men on the course practice their swings. The men try to explain to Erasmo that their money is working, even if they’re not. They ask Erasmo if he golfs. When he tells them no they try to explain the “art” of golf to him. He looks confused.

Sara stares at the security guard. Lola interrupts and takes the security guard’s sunglasses. Who knows what he’s looking at. Sara tells Lola how much she loves him. Lola tells her not to be crazy. Sara knows that she has an important chore to do, but she can’t help but to stare some more.

The tall guy tries to demonstrate a swing to Erasmo. (Not that his swing is all that great!) Erasmo approaches the ball with club in hand.

Fernando and Lety wander the golf course in front of a group of golfers. She’s trying to calm him and he wanders around with his head in his hands. Cut to Erasmo, who hits a golf ball… right into Fernando’s belly!

Juana serves coffee. The cuartel gathers. They talk about all their boyfriends. Martha mentions Lety and Tomas. They call themselves the cuartel of love! Julieta says nothing about Lety and Fernando not being a couple. (maybe she didn’t hear???) Paula Maria and Saimon show up, late again. Lola tries to give it to them, but neither seems to care. They’re here, and they’re ready to work.

Fernando hunches over and Lety asks him why she doesn’t hear him breathing. Erasmo approaches in the golf cart of his new friends. Fernando says he very well knows who he wants to kill now. Fernando sees that the other two golfers are friends! They ask where his father is. He tells them that his parents are in London. “The one in Europe?” Yeah. He asks them to continue to teach Erasmo golf. Lety sighs and runs after Fernando. The men continue to try to teach Erasmo golf.

Alicia parks outside a fence and gets out from her car. Tomas runs up to the back of the car and follows her. She puts her leg on the fence to climb it. “What legs!” Tomas exclaims. She decides she can’t climb the fence and gets back into her car. She sees a club car pass and gets a good idea. Tomas is left laying in the road.

Irmita continues to call Pilar. She’s still yelling at her phone saying she’s not going to film the commercial. Fernando watches Irmita and then goes on a tangent and repeats all the stuff Pilar said about being a professional the night before. He calls Conceptos. Alicia is not there and he wants to know why he pays her to answer the phones, and she’s not even in the office.

Alicia pulls up to the service entrance. She kisses her car good-bye and then runs over to the club car. Tomas follows her and accidentally shuts her inside the truck. She falls over and complains. She finds an outfit to change into. Tomas sneaks in beside the truck. Alicia changes into a maid outfit. She has a remembers a scene when she told the waitress that her soup is was cold. She berates the waitress for not bringing her hot food. She’s ashamed of where she currently is, but it’s all to get the money she needs. (Apparently, that's what they make the waitress wear. My bad!) Alicia finds her way outside of the truck. Tomas watches on as the truck driver and others ask her what she’s doing there. She says she works for the club. He tells her that the restaurant is very far away and the waitresses don’t usually use that entrance. She says she’s new. He says that’s okay. She starts to walk to the restaurant but goes the wrong way. The driver points her in the right direction. She complains about having to leave her other outfit behind.

Fernando did not learn his lesson about wandering on golf courses and he’s walking around the course again. Lety tries to calm him some more, but he keeps yelling about how it’s all over. He doesn’t have the right production team to deal with emergencies like this. The things that bothers him the most is the money. How are they going to pay it back if there’s no commercial! They’ll have to dissolve Conceptos!

Pilar’s phone continues to ring and she actually answers! Someone is yelling at her. She's mad because the person on the phone signed the contract, and she didn’t know that obligated her to go. (I’m assuming this person is her agent). She decides to keep it positive; after all, she gets to see Pavel. She’s absolutely sure that Fernando is Pavel!

Irmita tells Fernando again that Pilar is not there. The technicians come up and tell him that all the equipment is ready. He knows. He and Irmita go off with the technicians. Meanwhile, Martha tastes Julieta’s food. Julieta and Lety tell the cuartel about how good the food is. Everyone applauds. Julieta spazzes when she can’t find her green salsa. Erasmo comes up and asks if Fernando is okay. Erasmo tells her that his new friends have been teaching him to play golf. Everything boils over and freaks! Saimon gives a dramatic speech about Paula Maria and then runs after her. Saimon, Paula Maria and Lola talk on the cart path. He tells Lola that she’s freaking a little much just because of forgotten salsa. They asks where is Sara? Lola tells them that she’s with a tall man. They ask if she’s serious. Lola says he’s tall but he’s… You have to seem him to understand. They run off for Sara and her tall man.

Julieta has a nice dramatic novela moment about her forgotten salsa. Juana and Martha set her in a chair. “No puede ser! No puede ser!" I think this line is required for a show to be classified a novela. ;-) Lety runs off.

The technicians talk to Fernando about planning the shoot. Lety runs up and asks him for his cell phone. She says she’s going to call the model. Irmita follows her and Lety tells her about the forgotten salsa. She's not really calling Pilar.

Erasmo tries to calm Julieta and it almost works until Lety runs up and tells her that Tomas is not answering the phone. Erasmo says he’ll go home and get the salsa. The cuartel takes Julieta to the restroom to calm down. Lety doubts that her father will be able to return on time.

Sara tries to get Adolfo (or Rodolfo?) to make some kind of expression. She asks him a bunch of questions, removes his sunglasses and gets really close. Nothing works. Saimon, Paula Maria and Lola enter the scene. Paula Maria says he’s very handsome. Lola says sure, but he has no emotion whatsoever. Sara comes over and says watch this. She puts her hands in his coat and exclaims how strong he is. She puts his hands on her. Next she tries a joke about a gun. Nope! Looks like Sara is SOL. She goes back over to the cuartel for help but all they do is joke at her and the security guard's expense. Saimon thinks they should dress him up in a really tall black hat. Sara thinks Saimon is funny, but she just wants to seduce him.

Alicia walks up to the tent and spies on the scene. Lety, Fernando and Irmita talk around a table. Fernando wants to cancel the commercial. Lety protests. Alicia whispers to herself that she’ll save them! At that moment, Pilar arrives. Fernando gives Pilar and evil look. Pilar comes in and calls Fernando Pavel. Lety and Fernando remind her that his name is Fernando. Fernando tells Pilar that its not professional to show up late. She says that commercials always start filming late anyway! Irmita rushes Pilar off to the make-up area. Fernando mumbles about not liking Pilar but Lety reminds Fernando that Pilar is scared of horses, and they don’t really have another option.

Julieta laments her failure to bring all the food with Juana and Marthain the bathroom. Juana tries to cheer her up by doing some sort of native dance. She tells Julieta to do it too. Julieta laughs and says that she can’t. We’re treated to an Erasmo impersonation and more tears come.

Erasmo is doing his best to speed home. He even disrupts the police man and his "official business" with some chick. The officer pulls up next to Erasmo and tells him to pull over. The officer asks if Erasmo is driving so bad because of his age. (It’s not Sunday, Erasmo! Please keep all Sunday driving to yourself until then.) Erasmo explains to the police officer about the salsa. Erasmo appeals to him as a married man. The police officer lets him go and says he’ll follow him to the house. Julieta enters the tent feeling much better.

Gerardo (one of the technicians) is in the tent and Lety asks Fernando to tell him that Pilar is here now. Pilar is in the camper complaining. The make-up artists bites back. She decides to complain about the camper instead. She talks to Irmita and then goes back to complaining about her hair and make-up. Irmita says it’s the same style that she approved yesterday. Pilar says that was yesterday, and now she wants it all to be changed!

Will the horse bite Alicia?
Will the horse buck off Pilar? (Can you tell that I have high hopes for this horse?)
Have we finally met the female equivalent of Luigi?
Is Fernando's bad day finally over, or has it just begun?

Hasta Lunes amigos! Go Ohio State! -- I couldn't resist. :-)~
