Caray, Caray!

Fidiota confronts Diablo. She wants an explanation about his sudden ability to walk and strangle Sylvie. Synthesizer of Doom is getting a work out.

Princess Fiona is kissing Maxi-Moron. She can make him forget both Marfil and Dimwit. Cousin Eddie is boring. To her, sex is a sport; to Eddie it's only on Saturday unless he falls asleep. What's a trollop to do?

Camila starts asking Cousin Eddie about Princess Fiona. Isn't it strange she's out late at night? Cousin Eddie says she loves to shop late at night. Camila suggests Princess Fi has some other activity on her mind. Cousin Eddie says Princess Fi isn't capable of cheating.

Maxi-Moron blathers on and on about sex versus love, and how they differ. Princess Fi is as bored as me. She wants less talk and more action. She wants to feel alive again! Ugh!

Fidiota is still yelling at Diablo. She wants an explanation of his ongoing deceit. Dimwit and Little Doormat hear all the commotion and gather up Granny M. Together, they all run into the library. They are all impactadas to see Diablo on his feet. Fidiota is still yelling at Diablo for manipulating everyone at Psycho Mansion. She wants him to pack his things and leave immediately. Tomorrow she is going to get a lawyer and Dimwit is going to dump his butt! Diablo asks Dimwit if she's going to allow Fidiota to continue running Dimwit's life as always. "Don't just stand there, say something!!!" yells Diablo. Dimwit tells him to pack his things and take a long walk off a short pier.

Caramel tells Puncho he needs to find a REAL job and his own apartment. Out the door she prances in her perky little Daisy Duke short-shorts. Pobre de Puncho. Married to two thoughtless cows.

Camila is waiting up for Princess Fi. She tells PF Cousin Eddie gave up waiting, but she didn’t. She asks Princess Fi where she's been. "Shopping with my friend Susi," says Princess Fi, but our vixen Camila isn't buying it. "Since when does Susi wear men's cologne." Princess Fi clearly isn't comfortable with the direction of the conversation and exits stage left. Camila recognizes that cologne. Suddenly it dawns on her. "That's the same cologne Max wears!!!!! She's been with Maxi-Mundane!!!"

Lunkhead is lamenting his divorce. Max, Yolanda, and Rene are trying to cheer him up. Yolanda suggests he focus on his new-found acting career. "Easier said than done," whines our Luscious Lug. Rene suggests they change the subject with some good news. Yolanda tries to get him to stop but it's too late. Max wants to hear all about Rene's news.

Ominous music plays and Diablo walks down the stairs with his paltry little gym bag. He tells everyone they are making a grave mistake and they are going to be very sorry for kicking him out. Nancy runs out in tears as Caramel walks in. Diablo leaves and Caramel wants to know what the heck just happened. Caramel has on an ultra tight orange top that is discreetly held together in the front with only one over-taxed button. "Why is Diablo on his feet? Why is he leaving without his artwork?"

Rene gushes he and Yolanda are getting married. Max couldn't be happier for them! Larry couldn't be happier for them! Rene calls Max "Sobrino!" Max calls Rene "Tio!" and welcomes Rene into the family. Hugs all around! Marfil is the only wet blanket who points out the age difference, but no one can rain on Rene's or Yolanda's parade. They are too happy and too much in love! They plan to be married in a few days. Marfil grudgingly wishes them the best. As long as they're happy, that's what matters.

Lala is in the kitchen and hears a noise. She calls out to Puncho and walks into the room. She drops her jaw and about drops what she's carrying. It's Diablo and he can walk! He stands there like a hulk, glowering. The Orchestra of Doom plays an ominous chord and the bass drums sound like thunder. Commercial.

Gaby and Dimwit fill in an incredulous Caramel with the news. Meanwhile Sylvie, in a red and yellow wig, along with her black and red outfit (her shirt says "I heart Rockstars", is hiding under a desk calling a shirtless Max. Apparently Max is sitting in bed working on his laptop. Sylvie finally convinces him that Diablo can walk and has now been thrown out of Psycho Mansion. Maxi-Mediocre is impactado!

Lala is lecturing Diablo on what a tool he has turned out to be, but Diablo isn't in the mood for her sermon. Puncho walks in and Lala gets even more agitated when she realizes Puncho was in on Diablo's little deception. "I don't even know you!!!" exclaims Lala, as she walks out in disgust. Diablo then tells Puncho he wants to make Max disappear, and Puncho needs to help him.

Sylvie is telling Max everything that happened. Before she hangs up on him, she begs him not to let anyone know she called. Max hangs up and is all smiles. "She's free! Diana is free from that imbecile!"

Caramel and Little Doormat are having breakfast and discussing Gaby's recent divorce from Lunkhead. Gaby is going to marry Kike because he's been good to her. Caramel thinks that's a dumb reason for marrying someone. Gaby shouldn't marry Kike out of a sense of duty, especially when it's clear Gaby still loves Lunkhead. If Gaby marries Kike, Gaby will be making the same mistake as Dimwit did when she married Diablo. Gaby is convinced she will learn to love Kike eventually. Pobre naive Little Doormat.

Suspenseful music plays while Maxi-Mediocre pulls his little black Mercedes into the parking structure. The music continues as Max gets out in his too-tight lavender pastel shirt, tan pants, and white shoes. Someone needs to burn all the white shoes in this telenovela. They scare me. Meanwhile, Puncho is skulking behind the wheel of a white SUV. I am more concerned with trying to figure out the type of vehicle Puncho is driving than watching Maxi-Mediocre be stalked.

Puncho, looking like Cooter from Dukes of Hazard, is checking in with Diablo, who is dressed in his best Army Ranger baseball cap. Diablo has given up his artist gig, and is now coordinating a stake-out. The suspenseful music continues to play in the background. Puncho tells Diablo to calm down. "Trust your little bro," says Puncho. Meanwhile, Maxi-Clueless boards the elevator.

Pasta is whining to Jorge about seeing Fidiota with that "unknown." He clearly doesn't like the idea of Fidiota with another man. Especially one as nicely dressed as Rodrigo.

Fidiota is in Rodrigo's office discussing Little Doormat's case. Rodrigo is convinced Gaby will be found innocent. He then reiterates his offer for lunch. Finally Fidiota relents and says, "Why not?" Rodrigo all but licks his chops.

Caramel is still trying to talk Gaby out of marrying Kike. Gaby gave Kike her word that she'd marry him. She has to keep her promise. Lo and behold, who should happen to be running by without a shirt, but Luscious! The love theme starts playing and Lunkhead stops in his tracks staring at a bewildered Little Doormat.

Max is in Dimwit's office saying he's heard all about Diablo's charade. Now that Dimwit is soon to be a single woman, there's nothing to stand between their grand love. Maxi-Mediocre is draped all over Dimwit's chair. All of a sudden, in walks Marfil. "Have I interrupted something?" Cymbals of Doom crash!

Lala is pouring out her tale of woe to Granny M. How could she raise such losers as sons? Ah, the shame of it all!

Little Doormat tries to leave, but it's too late. Lunkhead jumps the railing and Caramel beats a hasty retreat. Larry looks sunburned. He wants to talk, but Gaby says they have nothing to talk about. She's in a hurry; she's going to be late for work. Luscious tells her he hopes she finds the happiness with Kike that he (Larry) never gave her. She looks at him with her big brown doe eyes and their love song plays. Are these two ever going to hook up? I can't stand this!

More nonsense with Max, Marfil, and Dimwit. Marfil is jealous. Dimwit and Maxi-Moron deny anything is going on. Marfil makes some comment about Dimwit deceiving her invalid husband. "Haven't you heard? Diablo was faking it. He can walk!" Marfil is impactada! Suddenly Beatriz comes running in. "Nick, Heath, Jared! There's a fire in the barn!!" Actually, I think a worker got an arm caught in a machine. At any rate, Max goes running out, but before he leaves, he warns Marfil, "Don't you dare. . ."

Sylvie is at the beach dressed from head to toe in blue. Need I say more? Any way, she spies Emili-Oh and calls him over. She starts filling him in on her life, being sure to tell him about her friends the transvestites. Emili-Oh is incredulous as the scene ends.

Lunkhead is still trying to apologize for being such a schmuck to Gaby. It serves him right that Kike went after Gaby. Gaby's all weepy eyed. Lunkhead's all weepy eyed. Gaby says she needs to get to work asap. Good grief! When will they ever kiss and make up! I'm sick of this!

Marfil and Dimwit are verbally squabbling over Max. "He's my husband!" versus "But he loves me and I have the baby to prove it!" What is it about this guy in too-tight pastel sweaters and white shoes?

More boring conversation between Emili-Oh and Sylvie. Emili-Oh can't understand what Caramel sees in Puncho. He's a bigamist and a pig!

Fidiota and Rodrigo are discussing Fidiota's plans for Dimwit. Fidiota refuses to let Dimwit hook up with the son of her worst enemy. Rodrigo tries to point out it could be true love, but Fidiota cuts him off. She'll pick the man for Dimwit.

Pobre de Emili-Oh. He professes his undying love for Caramel. Unfortunately, she's dying of love for Puncho. Ay!!!

Puncho pulls out a gun from the glove box of the mystery vehicle. Max is going to pay for crossing Diablo!

Dimwit finally comes out to ask Beatriz about the injured worker. Max is going to go to the hospital with him. Max appears from the elevator and tells Dimwit he's on his way to the hospital. He wants to know if Marfil is still there. "Nope," says our heroine. "We'll talk about it later."

Puncho is lurking behind a concrete pillar when Max walks out. He actually shoots Max in the shoulder. At this point, Caramel is pulling up in her little Honda SUV. She sees Max lying on the ground and being picked up by someone. In reality we can tell Max is actually standing up on his own. She is impactada. From her vantage point, she can't see Puncho. Puncho picks up Max (with Max's help, of course), and the mystery is solved. Puncho is driving a Toyota Highlander with a "Choose Life" yellow specialty Florida license plate. This is obviously not a rental car. Caramel looks like she's going to cry. Commercial.

Caramel has realized Puncho is the culprit. Maybe now Emili-Oh will look good to her. Puncho speeds past Caramel. Meanwhile, Diablo is throwing a temper tantrum at the Little House in the Hood. In the background are the same paint-by-numbers artwork we saw in the hospital waiting room.

Lala has come to see Dimwit at Perfumes 'R Us. She's begging Dimwit's forgiveness for giving life to the spawns of Satan. Dimwit says there's nothing to apologize. Lala can't be held responsible for the actions of her bone-headed sons. Lala thanks Dimwit for being so understanding. Hugs!

Puncho reports in to Diablo. He's hidden Max away where he'll never be found. I think Diablo wants Max alive so Diablo can get the honors of dispatching him.

Marfil is visiting Octopus. "What can I do about Max? I need your help!"

We get a close-up shot of white shoes with drops of blood on them. The camera pans up and Max has his arms tied to different beams of the old warehouse. As much of a drip as Max is, I really feel bad for him and find this scene very disturbing. We also see his bullet wound to the shoulder. Diablo is making all sorts of threats. At first Max tries to out talk him, but Diablo has clearly gone over the edge. In the end, Diablo has some sort of rope thing that looks like a pull toy for a very big dog. Actually, Max looks like he's hung on a cross. Like I said, the scene if very disturbing to me and I can't even watch it again to try and figure out what they're saying. One of our viewers, if any are left, can perhaps fill us in.

Credits roll.
