Caray, Caray!

This was indeed episode slow on action, but big on information...At least big on information for Gabe...

The tale begins with crowds surrounding Gabe's hosptial bed, Paulina & JC, Regina & Demian, Dolores & Nic, Rog....& a supporting cast of 1000's....awww just kidding, everyone is giving Gabe a two thumbs up on his recent return to the land of the living. Even Demian gives Gabe good wishes, though I am sure this dashed any plans Demian had of harvesting organs from his not-so-brain dead twin. Gabe asks where Lil Lui is and this brings up awkward glances between his well wishers, but before this sad topic can be broached, Joselyn comes in the room, pulling along her IV (which I seriously suspect is a liter of appletinis, cause it sure isn't truth serum).

Gabe gets this total WTF look on his face, which sadly is to remain as a fixed expression throughout this episode....
Joselyn does that breathy voice...like her next word may be her last. She tells Gabe she has just birthed his baby....Ay Carumba is his expression....No Puede Ser, No Puede Ser...leaving no doubt the lovin was seldom with those two....Time for nods & murmers from the background players....yes Nic says "The kid is yours". A doctor appears and tells the cast that time will have to be limited to two at a time. Paulina & Regina remain with Gabe, they console him about the birth of his child with Joselyn, by informing Stallion Boy, that he never shoots blanks and MA is also in the hospital, having delivered more fruit of his loins. Gabe wants to get up and rush to talk to MA...anticipating he has some splainin to do, but he is forced down by Regina and Paulina. I guess he has had some muscle mass loss during his coma.

Meanwhile over in the nursery, Leo & Candelabra are all ga-ga over the two new boys....They make a special point of remarking how similiar the two are....Remember this as it goes along with the silliness that is about to ensue.
Leo and Candelabra go skipping off, so thrilled about the births. Miriam is lurking outside the nursery. Oh NO shades of Entre EL Odio Y Amor, someone is switching the babies, healthy MA's kid gets swapped with unhealthy Joselyn's kid....sneaky sneaky....who would do such a hienous crime? Oh okay it is Miriam....A Nurse catches her leaving the nursery, but she just gives the excuse that she is the happy grandma.

Now go to MA's room Leo & Candy are visiting her. MA has the baby & she remarks the baby looks different. Leo says babies change rapidly....MA has a brief moment of hysteria where she doesn't believe this is her baby...Then she notices the baby's color has changed....
Eeeeekkkkkkkk....the baby has a heart condition and must be placed in an incubator....

Meanwhile Miriam insists...Joselyn and healthy kid leave the hospital pronto.

MA is with the baby in the nursery, Candy stops by with a cup of coffee & good karma, she informs MA that Gabe is out of his coma.

Later MA is in her hospital room when muy impacto Gabe comes in. She does not even want to have a conversation with him. Really people are dumping alot on him considering he was not the brightest bulb on the marquee & on a good day it took him quite a while to process information. He's like "I love you". MA is tell it to the hand cause the head ain't listening. She tells him "Listen and Listen good, cause this is the last time I am going to say it, my son is not your son, you are not the father, go & have a good happy life with Joselyn". More confusion...Leo & his bedazzled jacket come in, he tells Gabe "I followed your case and I am all shades of thrilled you are out of a coma". Gabe just looks forlorn, you can tell he is thinking, could Leo be the father of the boy? ****Process this Gabe, now that would be more of a miracle that you waking up to two hijos*****

MA vows she must spare the two innocent children and carry on with her lie. Her son has only one parent & that would be her.

Over at the Good Mansion, Joselyn is laying in bed. Miriam basically tells her, okay I gave you the good kid, the sick kid is now the burden of MA, so suck it up and try to pretend to be a good mother. Later the kid is crying and you can see this is totally stressing Joselyn, the chunky Naca maid/cook comes in and takes over care of the child. Okay so in this case third kid is not going to be a charm.

At some point during this....I don't know if it a public service announcement against being a stripper and sitting around suckin hooch out of a bottle all day or what, but Sylvester stops in to see Elsa, he loves her, she loves booze.

MA is at Leo/Candy's house...at least I think it is their apartment, when Otilla stops by with a little present and well wishes. The hospital calls with good news about the sick kid.

Gabe is released, apparently he became as uninteresting to the medical staff as he has always been to me, cause they certainly have not prepared him for any of the changes in his life over the past nine months.

Gabe goes in to see Joselyn who is holding the kid and acting like she likes the kid, she starts in talking about the happy little family in that breathy cloying voice. Come meet your son. Gabe picks up the kid and is instantly enamoured, he realizes it is his kid as soon as he picks it up, I saw the same thing on animal planet with sheep. Anyway thank god not all men are so intuitive or Maury Potavich wouldn't have a show. Gabe questions her about how could this have happened, apparently Biology was not his strong suit. "A night of passion, nine months ago", Joselyn says. FLASHBACK...Joselyn putting a powder in Gabes wine, Rog carrying a sick, yet capable of "LOVE" Gabe off to his room, Gabe seeing Joselyn, no MA, no Joselyn...
A serious acid trip. At this point Joselyn hands him one of the 1000's of DNA results she carries with her. Gabe is getting that stunned look of confusion again...He wants to go see Lui. Joselyn tears up, "you can't", she says "he isn't here". "Where is he?" Gabe counters. Joselyn tells him there was a terrible accident and Lui is dead. Gabe can't believe it and runs to Lui's room, boxes are piled up and Gabe begins to cry...I wasn't sure but he looks like a heart attack may be in order. He hears Lui's voice, "you are the best Pa in the whole world"...

Gabe is broken....

ADVICE to GABE: Inhale....Exhale....close your eyes, let your mind go blank, (like that is a stretch), go back in time to Entre El Odio Y Amor...think Gabe think...you were there, same plot...okay that is the best I can do to help you..
