Caray, Caray!

He anxiously awaits the day they become one. FS turns turn Alej and wishes him the best and they pat each other on the back. Alej then tells him that he knows he’s wishes are sincere. FS then tells Dena that she has the best man in the world and he knows they will be very happy. Dena smiles and tells him her dream has come true, thank you. FS gives his congrats and kisses her cheek. FS is sooo complex its unnerving, I want to hate him but sometimes it’s hard. MP then apologizes for getting there late, but she had to say goodbye to the nuns in training. She also says that she was given a dispensation to settle some unresolved matters. Alej tells her he hopes she gets those answers and MP is happy that he has found happiness and wishes both of them the best.

Dolores goes to her Diego to tell her she will miss him because while he will be living at the hacienda she won’t take care of him like before. Delores gives him a hug and wishes him the best. MA feels a little left out and asks Delores what about me? Delores tells her to take good care of her boy because he is a good person (ain’t that the truth, even if he was a little annoying before with the Esme stuff). MA promises to do so. Enter Bernie to sign (he passes his hand over his face) and Diego responds with I like you too. They shake hands and share a hug.

Then its MP’s turn and she hugs Diego. Diego tells her she looks pretty and asks if she will stop being a nun. MP tells him about this dispension thing and she doesn’t want to talk about it now, maybe another time. She congratulates the couple and kisses MA on the cheek. MA looks at her angrily.

FS then gives his congratulations and is all smiles. MA tells FS that they will give him lots of grandchildren, hmpf. I don’t see MA pregnant, she doesn’t strike me as the pregnant type. I hope Diego doesn’t touch her during this whole marriage. FS then congratulates Diego and tells him he acted like a gentleman and worthy of having the de la Vega last name (well I don’t think he had a choice unless he wanted to duel and who said Diego isn’t a gentleman huh, I think he is totally a gentlemen, a cute gentleman). Diego just looks on and half smiles (I think he is thinking LIAR, you’ll get yours). Then Alej comes and he and Diego hug and pat each other on the back give each other congrats.

Piza informs FS that Monty has advised him that the Viceroy has arrived. FS is surprised and Piza informs him that he thinks he is there for the woman in the “iron” mask.

Cut to the jail, where we get Ricky (oops PS, I forgot Ricky's not his name) and I guess it’s the Viceroy (it’s not the dwarf darn I was kinda hoping oh well). Viceroy informs Monty that about a week ago he sent an inspector, (has it been a week I thought it was longer, I mean one week passed before the wedding and Esme is still early in her pregnancy 6 weeks maybe?) that never returned because he was supposedly assassinated by a bandit. Monty tells Viceroy that his information says Zorro robbed then killed the Viceroy. Viceroy tells him that it is his understanding that Zorro steals money not an assassin so don’t you think your accusation is a little strange (Another person who doesn’t believe Zorro killed Viceroy, interesting.). But Zorro himself will confess it to me because I imagine you trapped him already right? Ha, if you only knew. Monty looks a little nervous but says no its only a matter of time. Viceroy tells Monty that time is something that can work against them and because he hates wasting time, he’ll tell him why he’s there. Viceroy tells Monty that he has it under good authority that for some time there is a woman being held prionser in whom he is very interested, take me to her cell. Monty plays dumb, a woman here there are no women here. Viceroy does the fake BS sneeze and tells Monty you will be imprisoned here if I find out you are lying to me. He doesn’t believe in coincides and the death of his inspector tells him that weird stuff is happening here. Monty slightly irriated tells Viceroy he’s telling him the truth and says we’ll prove it right now. He knows the woman is there and won’t rest until he finds her.

Back at the wedding, MA asks Diego what’s wrong and FS tells MP he apologizes but he has to go he has important matters to tend to but he’ll catch them later at the reception. MP also says she is leaving, will be going to meet Cardinal. FS looks worried and tells MP I thought you weren’t going back. MP tells him she has some doors to close and would like to talk to Cardinal about it, see ya later. FS then tells everyone else he has to go because Viceroy has arrived and he has to appear before him. Diego then asks FS isn’t it strange that such an important person would visit without notice. FS says yes but that’s the way things happen sometimes without prior notice and excuses himself. MA then wonders out loud why the Viceroy would come to an insignifant town.

Back to Esme and the guard. MA is walking with a cane (I wonder where he got it from?) and in pain after each step. The guard scratches his head and gets close to Esme. You know what he kinda reminds me of somebody I saw in a movie that I can’t place right now. Darn it, it’s going to bug me until I can figure it out. Esme lashes out and asks the guard if he’s going to follow her inside because she’s not escaping much less with twisted ankle. Guard tells her fine but go hope. Esme gives a sarcastic thank you and continues hobbling. Enter another guard who distracts this guys attention and Esme makes her escape.

Cut to the gitanos where Laisha is asking Jonas what’s the hold up we got to free SK and get out of this hell hole. Renzo tells her that he agrees he used to be in a hurry to free SK but he’s learned to be patient that we rush things. We have to wait till Esme gives us signal. Laisha is angry and says Esme has not been through we they had to go suffer and they call her their princess. Renzo-stop talking about her like that. Laisha-Miguel gave his life to save la Reina and the same thing is going to happen to us if we don’t get out of here. Jonas then tells Laisha that he feels anger about Miguel’s death but for him everything has to be done right. Renzo agrees, today is the day but everything has to be carefully calculated, Esme will give the signal. Laisha calls them naïve and says she doubts Esme will risk her life to save a mom she’s never known and she'll make up any ol’ excuse not to do this today. You know what, I am starting to not like her right now.

The happy couples are at the hacienda and the employees have welcomed them and are throwing a mini celebration. MA doesn’t like it I guess and calls it weird, bad choice of words. Diego tells her don’t worry inside are the important people you invited. MA wishes she bit her tongue and tells Diego that it’s a little hot how about we go inside for something to drink. Diego tells her you go in, I am going to check out this reception a little bit. MA tells him not to be long.

Cut to Diego and Bernie in a bedroom how did he do that? Cuz I know he’s not in the Bat Cave. Diego is changing out of his wedding duds and tells Bernie that the Viceroy is there. Alej thinks its to save SK but he has doubts. Diego doesn’t think the Viceroy would bother coming over to LA unless he had some interest in SK. Diego asks what does SK have to do with the Spanish crown (you and me both Diego). But not to worry, Zorro will personally give the Viceroy a Welcome. Bernie signs what looks like a no and Diego remembers the reception. Diego then tells Bernie cover for me, tell my dad I went to get a wedding present or whatever works for you.

Back to the gitanos getting ready for their rescue, packing weapons I guess into a cart. Enter Esme to warn them not to go to prison, the Viceroy is there now and if he finds SK he’ll kill her. Laiesha tells everyone I knew it, this woman won’t let us free our queen. Esme is hurt and doesn’t understand why she is acting like that. Laisha tells her you didn’t help me free Miguel when I asked you to, you are not one of us. Listen lady, you are still harboring about that, Zorro freed Miguel, let it go. Renzo tells Esme it will be when she says its okay and asks looks to Jonas for agreement. Jonas hesitates before saying yeah sure. Oh boy, Laisha is sowing disharmony in the camp, great. She’s getting really close to Duelo whirlpool, she better step back. Esme is upset.

Some guards are allowed into the prison and the door is locked behind them. Zorro sneaks by and gets close to a wall, Yea, it’s been a while since I saw him on my night to recap. Zorro smiles and grabbles his way to the roof, hey what happened to the background music.

We cut to Monty showing the Viceroy where the majority of prisoners are housed, more lifers or at least been there a while apparently. Monty assures Viceroy if there was a woman in the prison, she wouldn’t survive being housed next to these animals. Viceroy tells Monty fine I’ve seen enough, this place stinks. Viceroy tells Monty he’ll be at Govnur’s house but will leave guards behind to continue inspection. M-Wise decision, your Excellency the air in the place could be dangerous to your health. Yeah sure and the BS your saying ain’t too healthy either. Monty smiles, ewww it gives him a more rat like look if you ask me. Viceroy orders guards to continue their search and to leave no stone unturned and all that. Viceroy tells Monty holding SK doesn’t benefit him but she is on the other hand very important to government. Turn her over and your situation will be benefited. Me thinks Viceroy is not a good guy too, of course Diego did say that and Diego is very smart; cute and smart a winning combo. M-what more could I possibly want? V- You can aspire to more responsibilities for the crown than your ambitious dreams could have imagined. Monty likes this idea very much I can see the wheels in his rat like head turning. V-Titles only permitted to those with royal blood. The sky’s the limit in exchange for an insignificant woman. Viceroy pats Monty on the cheek and tells him don’t make decision now, just let his mind and intelligence to make that decision (and don’t forget ambition). Viceroy leaves but not before saying, It’s better to be on the side of Queen.

FS gets the prison and meets Viceroy and they pat each other on the back like old friends. Viceroy is happy to see a familiar face. FS says you should have just told me you were coming I woulda baked a cake. Acutally he says you shoulda told me about your visit, I woulda had everything ready for your coming. Viceroy tells him not to worry he didn’t come officially on anything to do with his leadership. FS then asks why the visit. Viceroy tells him, a matter to be discussed later. Monty of course opens his trap to tell FS that Viceroy thinks there is a woman being hidden in the prison. FS fake laughs and thinks it’s a joke or an excuse to check into Monty’s work. Viceroy says I don’t joke and don’t need an excuse to check Monty’s work. FS says of course, your excellancy and Monty informs how serious by saying the pay for the info. Viceroy asks Monty to be more reserved because he wants the situation handled with discretion and asks them if they know what the word means. Judging by what has happened from Monty’s end don’t think so. I mean Monty was the one making a lot of noise before sending SK to the canyon. FS to change the subject tells Viceroy he can go ahead to city and he has prepared everything for the stay at hotel Sanchez Moncada. While Viceroy is waiting outside, FS asks his son-in-law (yerno) to meet him in the office.

Cut to MP talking to Cardinal. Cardinal tells MP she is under dispensation she should be at home. MP knows but she couldn’t leave without letting go of some hidden secrets. MP tells Cardinal that her faith and devotion are the same and intact but there have been moments where she has betrayed her vocation. MP tells Cardinal that all she wanted was to stay at convent and continue with her mission but there were personal problems and a wound that wouldn’t heal. Cardinal says that it appears that FS stole away one of God’s servants. MP doesn’t know if that’s true but what she knows is that she destroyed a man whom she thought was guilty of a crime he didn’t commit. MP hopes that Cardinal understands that she can’t serve God with such a load on her conscience. Cardinal asks MP if she still loves FS. MP says yes with all her heart.

FS asks Monty who told Viceroy that SK was there. Monty says he had nothing to do with it and isn’t he the one risking his life. FS is not fooled for Viceroy to be around somebody said something and it’s a matter between them. Monty is sure it was somebody else and tells FS that he is risking himself without knowing anything. I thought he knew, liar. Viceroy is positive SK is in the prison. FS assumes SK has been moved and Monty tells him Piza and his men hid her probably in the old sewers. FS tells Monty that Viceroy can’t find SK its jeopardizing for both of them. Monty tells FS he is beginning to have doubts and it might not be able to continue hiding SK FS hopes Monty won’t betray him. Monty-Viceroy has offered me heaven and earth and I don’t want to be accused of conspiracy against Spanish court. Meanwhile Zorro is listening to FS and Monty. Either FS tells Monty who she represents to royal court or he will be forced to turn her over.

Meanwhile at the wedding reception, Mangle seems to be enjoying herself. Dena spots Esme who confirms her suspicion that something happened. They go to talk inside and MA is probably wondering why she is there. Esme tells Dena what Olmos told her about Viceroy. Dena wants to know why but Esme doesn’t know, Olmos didn’t explain. Esme is worried but Dena reminds her worry is not good especially in her condition, much less now that she is carrying Diego’s son and darn it darn it, MA is listening in, aughhh freaking nosy busybody, I want to hang her, mangle her.

END OF EPISODE.
