Caray, Caray!

Alina enters the chapel and she and Emiliooo pray together.

Luba skulks around the house, then hides when a servant walks by. She finally gets into Thelma’s room. She looks all over the room, in the dark, for ‘something strong.” She finally finds Thelma’s hairbrush and takes some hair, saying to herself that this will do nicely! I don’t have any snarky comments on this because I think her putting a hex on Thelma is a great idea.

Soledad thinks that Don Max surely saw her, he’s going to tell Don Loco, Don Loco will come kill her, etc. This reminds me of a great story, if I may digress. Women (some I’m sure not all) can take the most innocuous thing and make a whole story out of it, like what Soledad just did. I had a female co-worker friend who had a huge crush on another guy we worked with. The guy had long hippie hair, we nicknamed him “Def Leppard.” It made sense at the time. Anyway, Def Leppard had just broken up with his girlfriend and my co-worker finally got him to ask her out. It went ok, but Def Leppard obviously wasn’t ready to dive into another girlfriend just yet. One day he wore a sweatshirt that said “Hawaii” on it. My friend freaked out. “One time he went to Hawaii with his old girlfriend! They must be back together! What if they are getting married?” The rest of us couldn’t believe our ears, all this from a SWEATSHIRT. From then on, anytime anyone got a little carried away, we’d bring them back down to earth with “helloooo – sweatshirt!” Anyway, Soledad’s little rant really seemed like that. Hellooo Soledad, sweatshirt!

Thelma flounces into her room, followed by Singing Aunt. SA asks Thelma if Angel died yet, Thelma said not yet. SA says great then, soon enough. Thelma thinks it is taking too long, SA asks if she’s going to kill him with her own hands? Thelma says no, some other way. Angel can’t hear anything upsetting or he’ll get worse, she likes that. Jeez this is getting so boring. I think today was the first time in a long time that I wasn’t looking forward to doing a recap. I have had it with this show. I hope to God there really aren’t 72 more episodes.

Gaspar can’t find Luba in the cave. He argues with himself if he should kill Thelma, he doesn’t want to so he can see his baby. His head hurts to think.

Vera and Nora talk about Gaspar, Nora really likes him. Great.

Emiliooo and Alina pray some more. For not being religious type, Emiliooo is laying it on pretty thick. He begs God to save Angel. He cries, aww he’s so sensitive. Whatever.

Nora reveals to Vera that she got busy with Gaspar and tells the story of how he got bumped in the head. Nora moons over Gaspar then goes to bed.

Soledad is now completely insane, she is talking to herself out loud. Don Loco is crazy, he’ll kill her, etc. There is noise and she yells out, “Who’s there?”

Emilioooo snuffles and cries some more, he tells Alina that they should keep praying. Alina stares at him like he’s a rock star. Woman wake up, he’s a f&%$^ng tool, get over it.

Max doesn’t think he saw Soledad, after all Don Loco has her locked up. The servant brings him coffee and updates him on Angel’s condition. He’s a little bit happy about it, it means the kids will have to go to Puebla and Max will be the only one in charge again.

Sexy Nurse Suzi is wearing a sweater today, but of course it’s a tight, thin, low cut, sexy sweater. Thelma is also staring at Angel, willing him to die. Orlando peeks in and tells Thelma to come, he needs to talk to her.

Soledad eats food that Adela brought her. Adela is telling her who is drunk and who is asleep. Soledad claims that things are ok with her.

Thelma can’t believe that Emiliooo is praying, she and Orlando agree that Alina is responsible for it.

Emilioooo and Alina finally stop praying and sit down. Emiliooo asks her if she loves him and he wants the truth. Um, hasn’t this been covered? LIKE A MILLION TIMES? Cripes these people can’t remember what happened five minutes ago. She doesn’t answer in .005 seconds so he says “Answer me!” Yeah Emiliooo women LOVE that. She says yes, she loves him, but they can’t be together because he is married. Yawn. I may have said that this show is boring me to death, but perhaps I had dozed off and just dreamed it. I’ll say it again – this show is getting more boring by the second. Aren’t things supposed to heat up as time goes on?

Rosita’s dad thought bubbles Don Max taking credit for raping Rosita as he gets drunk and cries. Rosita comes in and asks him what’s up. He’s upset for not standing up to Max, he thinks he’s a coward. Rosita tells him not to worry, she loves him as much as ever. Dad falls on the ground crying like a drunk cries, begging Rosita’s forgiveness.

Orlando tells Thelma that she’s stupid. Over and over. Well, you’re right Orlando, what can I say. Orlando tells her that she can’t be satisfied that Angel is in a coma, he could recover. Thelma says she knows what she has to do.

Emilioooo and Orlando are apparently too busy to ever work with their army unit, the rest of F-Troop doesn’t seem too happy about it. They come into one of the bedrooms commenting on how some here eat so well while others starve. Emiliooo’s name is thrown in with those who don’t do enough to help, along with Max.

Orlando pulls Thelma’s strings further, to the point Thelma stomps out and says that Angel has to die this very day. Orlando smiles.

Emiliooo and Alina walk through the house, Max sticks his head out and says he needs to talk with Emiliooo. Alina and her bigger by the day boobs just stand there.

Gaspar looks at the hairbrush, Luba takes it away and says “I told you, I found it. Someone must have dropped it.” Gaspar asks if she’s lying, she asks when has she ever lied to him? She orders him off to sleep. She thought bubbles how tomorrow she’s going to do whatever it is she’s going to do with Thelma’s hair.

Adela and Nora both can’t sleep so they end up in the kitchen drinking tea. Won’t that keep them up? Adela tells Nora about Soledad, they also agree that Don Loco is nuts. What the hell is with these people? Where have they been for the last three years?

Don Loco wakes up in his bed and has vision after vision of Jose and Soledad together. He says to nobody that the only way Soledad will forget about Jose is with death. He decides he’ll have to kill her. I love how in every vision Jose is grinning like "Hell yeah, I am hitting that every day!"

Alina talks to a servant, I think this is Vera. Vera tells Alina how Emilioooo has changed so much lately, Alina says Angel’s illness has taught Emiliooo some humility. Yawn. Oops sorry about that. Alina says Emilioooo is suffering so much, thinking that Angel might die. EMILIOOOO is suffering? What? He’s not the one in a coma! Emiliooo is the one who has hot chicks all competing over him. The only way he is suffering is because he is such an idiot. Alina and Vera say Angel is such a great guy, gosh I hope he doesn’t die.

A bunch of people walk with lit candles into the church. They leave their candles on an altar. What is this? We get no explanation.

A variation on the night time conversation, the difference is that this time it is in the barn. No wait, he’s not here to talk this time, he grabs Soledad by the neck and starts strangling her.

Max wants to talk about funeral arrangements for Angel, Emiliooo tells him to shut up because Angel is still alive. Emiliooo hopes for a miracle, Max says they don’t exist. Emilioooo says he’s waiting for a miracle. You already said that Emiliooo, we get the point.

Don Loco continues to choke Soledad. She calls him “Mi Amor” and he lets up and has an orange flashback of he and Soledad kissing. He says he can’t do it and leaves the barn. Soledad, surely, will stay right there, because she is infected with Sierra Escondida Stupid Idiot disease, waiting for the next time he tries to come kill her. I hate all these people. Even the victims are now choosing to stay victims.

Luba carries the mysterious Don Loco box. She says something nasty about Thelma then asks the virgin for forgiveness. She has a long conversation with the virgin about everything and everybody. She has an orange flashback of herself waiting outside with the box and Don Loco riding up on a horse. She says she’s there waiting for him, it’s about his mother, he says he doesn’t want to know anything about her. He says she did something he can never forgive. Luba says nobody told her anything about anything. Don Loco orders her to never mention his mother again, she says fine. He asks what is in the box, Luba says it is a story of life and death that he doesn’t want to know anything about. She turns around and leaves. Back in the present she thinks that if Don Loco knew what was in the box, he would never forgive her and he’d run her off.

Alina is STILL sitting and waiting for Emiliooo and Orlando approaches. He tries to sympathize with her about Angel. Orlando, like Max, emphasizes how Angel is as good as dead. Orlando tells her to trust in him and treat him like a friend.

Thelma comes back in and asks how Angel is, the doctor says he’s doing a bit better, surprisingly. He doesn’t want to say anything to Emiliooo to get his hopes up just yet, though. The doctor says he’s done all he can do, it’s up to God now. The doctor tells Suzi to come with him, she needs to rest. Suzi says she wants to stay with Angel. Thelma tells her to leave, she herself will watch Angel for a while. Thelma sits on the bed next to Angel. He has some thoughts about that he heard what they said before, he’s not in a coma, something like that.

Luba snores away, holding the box in her sleep. Gaspar sneaks past her to get out of the cave, but thoughtfully stops to tell nobody, out loud, that he’s sneaking off to go see Thelma.

Orlando says he can help Alina and her mother. He holds her hand and promises to help. Emiliooo comes up and asks what he is promising her, Orlando jumps up and he and Emiliooo puff their chests out at each other. I’m surprised they don’t both keep pissing on Alina’s leg, they are each so intent on marking their territory. Angel would be pisser #3 if he could get out of bed. Alina doesn’t help at all by looking completely guilty of something.

Thelma puts on a little one woman play, she cries that she doesn’t know what to do, Emiliooo killed Flor! No reaction from Angel. Did she think he would just pop up out of bed, or what?

After the commercial, we get to hear Angel’s deep inner thoughts. “She thinks I’m dead. I’m not. Alina is suffering.” It kind of sounds like a Mexican Incredible Hulk. “rrrRRrr Hulk not dead.” Thelma keeps it up, she says that Emilioooo will blame her and take her jewels, oh no! Emiliooo killed her! Angel doesn’t wake up.

Emiliooo and Orlando snipe at each other. Boring. Orlando offered help, Emiliooo thinks he’s up to something, they yell at each other, piss piss. Emiliooo tells Orlando that Alina doesn’t need any more help. Orlando just stands there like a fool. Alina, of course, says nothing, while these two morons decide what she does and doesn't need. Well, maybe that's ok, when she does speak up she always volunteers to go back to wherever she was most recently locked up.

We have a cloudy picture of Don Loco strangling Soledad, then Adela calling him a killer. It’s Don Loco having the vision. He is mad at himself for doing something so stupid. Just that one thing, DL? Really?

Soledad the genius says again “He’s crazy.” I hate all these people. She whines for a bit, out loud, to nobody. She is sure he will kill her.

Thelma says it is easier than killing a fly. Angel thinks that Alina can’t be dead. As Thelma leaves, Emiliooo enters with Alina. Alina goes and whispers to Angel, so of course he knows now that she’s alive. Alina cries a bit, Angel wakes up. Emiliooo, who is a GENIUS!, says “He’s out of his coma.” Hey check it out Emiliooo, the sky is blue.

Gaspar, who snuck out in the middle of the night, is now running along in broad daylight. He has pain from his injury but must soldier on to see his munequita!

Angel says he feels fine. Sure he does. Whatever. Emilioooo says he’ll get the doctor. Emiliooo asks Angel AGAIN how he feels. Give him a break you idiot. Angel says he’s tired. And a little upset. Emilioooo tells Angel how they were praying for him in the chapel. Is he trying to take credit for curing Angel? Angel says he is a but upset over something Thelma said. Emiliooo confronts her. She just looks irritated.

Don Loco is leaving, he doesn’t want Sergio to come along. DL says something about locking Soledad up tight while he goes to Mariana’s wedding. Adela tries to sneak past in the background but Don Loco stops her and wants to talk.

Thelma says she doesn’t know what Angel is talking about, Angel says she said Emiliooo killed Alina. Thelma makes some excuse, Angel says ok fine, whatever. Thelma acts indignant and leaves the room. Back in her own room, she curses Angel for causing her to possibly lose everything. Then she sees Gaspar out the window and curses some more.

Don Loco tells Adela to make sure Soledad doesn’t escape. Good thing he clarified that, I didn’t realize from being locked in a barn that she was supposed to be a prisoner. Adela asks Don Loco if he knows the guy Mariana is going to marry, DL thinks he’s just some guy looking for his sister because she’s rich. Adela says he might be a nice guy. DL won’t hear it. He says if the guy is a creep or whatever, he’s going to take his sister away someplace. Oh GREAT. Another prisoner.

Thelma gripes about Gaspar. Nothing stops him!

Alina tells Angel she’s so happy that he is ok. Emilioooo again says he’s going for the doctor, this time he actually does. Alina tells Angel there have been two miracles. The first is that Emiliooo is closer to God, the second is Angel coming out of the coma. Yes, Emilioooo is closer to God. Right. I won’t get into a religious discussion, but one tearful, desperate, session of praying makes him closer to God? Whatever. Angel is tired of crisis after crisis. WE ARE TOO, ANGEL. You are preaching to the choir. Alina says Emilioooo will take care of them and everything. Because he has done such a good job already? Sure. Angel says miracles do exist.

I thought Emiliooo was going for the doctor, instead he’s telling Max all about Angel waking up. Is this how he takes such good care of everyone? Not ever getting a doctor when he should? Max doesn’t look happy, though he claims to be. Emiliooo says he’s going to tell everyone everywhere that Angel is awake, they’ll all be so glad. Yes, I’m sure the will be, because news that the rich owner is awake will make them forget all about the fact that they are starving. Oh, and how about that doctor? Max looks very displeased about all this. “How good for Angel, but how bad for me!”

Thelma goes outside to find Gaspar. Doesn’t he know that he’s not supposed to come here? He keeps talking about his kid, she tells him to shut up. He wants a kiss but instead she yells at him, “I could kill you right now, but I won’t. Understand, you can’t come here?” All he does is ask for another kiss. She says not here, so he says where? One of the stablemen notices them talking and starts to listen in. Thelma tells Gaspar she’ll look for him later. Gaspar doesn’t believe her. The stableman is impactado, Gaspar and Thelma?

The doctor showed up, no thanks to Emiliooo. Sexy Nurse Suzi came back too. I wonder if she leaves that little nurse hat on, you know, all the time? The doctor says he can’t believe it. The doctor says now they REALLY need to go to Puebla to see a specialist and find out just what is up with Angel. Suzi says she’ll call doctor somebody or other, he’s the best, she’ll try and get an appointment. Angel starts to sulk and says he doesn’t want to talk about it now. The doctor tells them all to get out and let Angel rest.

Thelma tries to get Gaspar to leave, he doesn’t want to. She says they can’t talk here, they might be discovered. She tells him to meet her at the abandoned cabin at noon. The stableman hears everything. Gaspar hops off, happy. The stableman stares after them as they leave. He has a shirt unbuttoned down the front and a horrible moustache, he looks like a Mexican Larry from Three’s Company.

The soldiers are trying to help the poor people who were displaced by the storm. Emiliooo tells them that Angel is better. They pretend they care.

Mexican Larry is telling Vera what he heard. Is this her husband? I think I saw him before but I didn’t recognize him. She tells him not to go to the cabin at noon. He says he’ll be careful. Right.

The soldiers ride through the very pretty wilderness, it makes me want to go on vacation. The soldiers are all going back to Puebla, Emiliooo tells them good luck. The doctor is waiting, he tells Emiliooo that Angel needs to go to Puebla, but not quite yet, after he has recovered a bit and can travel. Emiliooo thanks the doctor for the medicine he gave Angel, the doctor says he didn’t do anything, it was a miracle. The now holy man Emiliooo throws up a quick prayer of thanks to God for the miracle.

Alina is in the chapel, she also thanks God for the miracle.

Emiliooo becomes more holy by the second as Alina joins him. Emiliooo goes from holy to lustful in one second, he lunges open-mouthed at Alina and they make out.
