Acorralada #118 – 6-29-07 Friday – Nurse Wretched Gets Caught!

Camila and Doc Evil are gloating that Nurse Wretched will do anything for money. Maxi-Torpid will return to being crazy and will never leave the manicomio. This will cause Dimwit eternal pain. Next step is to call Octopus to tell her Dimwit is working at the asylum; Octopus can then get Dimwit fired.

Maxi-Torpid is sweet-talking Dimwit. He wishes she was his private nurse. He asks if she remembers the name he gave her. "Of course, Azucena. It's a beautiful name." Nurse Wretched appears and yells at Dimwit for only hanging out with Max. Max tries to intervene, but Nurse Wretched refers to him as Demon crazy.

Princess Fi is begging Octopus to let her stay in Pasta's Palace. Octopus isn't too thrilled with this idea. Princess Fi pours out how she's left her hubby, Marfil booted her out of Max's rental house, and how she doesn't have a dime to her name. Finally Octopus relents. Princess Fi can stay for a short time. Faux hug.

Diablo is having a chat with Iggy and Camila. He tells them he heard from his mom that Dimwit left Psycho Mansion the night before. Diablo doesn't know where she's staying at the moment; his mom hasn't told him. Diablo is convinced Lala knows where Dimwit went and just doesn't want to tell Diablo.

Nurse Wretched is threatening to give Maxi-Moron a bath in ice cold water if he doesn't stop standing up for Dimwit. Dimwit threatens to report Nurse Wretched to the director.

Nurse Wretched sends Dimwit away and threatens Max some more. Max threatens to report her abuses to the director as well. Perhaps he's not as crazy as she thinks! Orchestra of Doom.

Diablo doesn't know Dimwit's whereabouts, but he's going to find out. If Iggy finds out, Diablo wants to know about it. They part company. Camila wants to know why Iggy is working with Diablo. Iggy says he knows where Dimwit works, he might as well use Diablo the Imbecile to get information regarding Dimwit's residence. When they have no further use for Diablo, they'll kick him out of their lives. Camila smiles.

Luscious and Gaby are lounging Oceanside. They are going to be selfish for a change and just think about their happiness with finally being together. I'm happy too.

Dimwit is looking for Pedro when Maxi-Torpid walks in. Their theme song plays and they look dopily at one another. Maxi-Moron sighs, "Azucena!"

Princess Fi is chugging down a drink and grumbling to herself about how broke she is, while Cousin Eddie lives like a king. "But he's SO boring!!!" Octopus checks on Princess Fi and they commiserate about boring Cousin Eddie. Princess Fi states she plans on getting Maxi-Mundane back. "Good luck," says Octopus, "he's going to be in the asylum for a long time." Octopus then makes some comment about the only thing Princess Fi has to worry about is that proletariat nurse.

Sylvie is walking Mini-Max along the boardwalk when Jorge shows up. Sylvie has her purple Lhasa Apso wig back on. Jorge accuses her of being a married woman since she apparently has a kid. Believe it or not, for once, Sylvie can't get a word in edgewise. Jorge actually out-talks her as she tries to explain the baby is not hers. Ha!

Maxi-Torpid wants to kiss Dimwit. She says that's not appropriate because he's a patient and she's a nurse. Nurse Wretched might find out and that would be the perfect excuse for her to get fired. Maxi-Moron wants to know if it's true she's not married. Dimwit doesn't want to talk about it with him. Finally Maxi-Moron gets mad and stomps off with Dimwit running after him asking him to wait.

Nurse Wretched and Dulce are discussing Dimwit. Nurse Wretched is bad-mouthing Dimwit, as expected. Dulce is defending Dimwit. Dulce says Dimwit is a good nurse; they worked together at the hospital. Nurse Wretched tells Dulce if she doesn't stop defending Dimwit, Dulce will be fired as well! Dimwit is immoral! Maxi-Moron is a married man!

Jorge still won't give Sylvie a chance to explain and runs off. Sylvie is mad the one time a guy shows interest in her, he accuses her of being married with a baby and trying to pick up Puncho at a bar. She calls him a brute and macho, although he's long gone.

Rene and Yolanda are happily skipping through the garden showing us a big dose of PDA. They are kissing when Marfil, the wet blanket, shows up. She thinks their public display of affection is disgusting, especially when Max is locked away in a manicomio. That puts a damper on Yolanda's happiness. Rene says there's no reason for them not to be happy; they are in love. That is totally different than the situation with Max. Marfil says she saw Max in the asylum, but she and Octopus couldn't visit him. Yolanda wants to know if he was with any one; say, a nurse. "No," says Marfil, "he was alone." After Marfil leaves Yolanda and Rene are relieved Octopus and Marfil didn't see Dimwit. Dimwit would be fired, and Max really needs Dimwit at his side! Commercial.

Octopus and Princess Fi are chatting when Pasta comes home. Pasta is not too happy to have another houseguest. He asks Octopus if she thinks he's running a hotel or what. Pasta tells Octopus Princess Fi's problems are bringing problems to Pasta's and Octopus' marriage, which has enough problems as it is.

Dimwit and Dulce are leaving the manicomio. Dulce is reminding Dimwit to watch out for Nurse Wretched. As if Dimwit wasn't already painfully aware. As Dimwit is walking to the car, she gets a call from Cousin Eddie. He needs to talk to her immediately. It's very important. He needs her help. What's her address?

Diablo and Marfil are doing the horizontal bop. Marfil tells Diablo not to fall in love with her. He's says that won't be a problem. He only loves Dimwit. "Good," replies Marfil, "I only love Max." They like the idea of doing their rivals' mates. Diablo comments that Dimwit no longer lives at Psycho Mansion. Marfil is very interested in this tidbit; she needs to find out where Dimwit is now living. She needs to keep Dimwit away from Maxi-Mundane.

Cousin Eddie shows up at Emili-Oh's place. He begs Dimwit to talk to Princess Fi and get Princess Fi to return to his side. Dimwit says she only saw Princess Fi that one time. There's nothing she can do to help. Cousin Eddie is desperate! He wants "his woman" back at his side. Cousin Eddie is more of a drip than Max! Hard to believe, but true.

Meanwhile, back at Psycho Mansion, Kick Me is mad. He wants Fidiota to do something about "her daughter!" Fidiota, drunk as usual, says she'll take care of things when Gaby returns. Roddy is also there and is trying to get Fidiota to quit drinking. She's an alcoholic. "No I'm not, I'm just drinking to calm my nerves. I can quit any time I want." Roddy says if Fidiota shows up drunk in court, it will ruin Little Doormat's case. They argue over her continued drinking. Finally, Fidiota takes her drink and leaves. Kick Me tells Roddy that Gaby is going to pay for running away after their wedding. Kick Me has the best eye-rolls of anyone I've seen on this show. The look on his face when Fidiota leaves is priceless.

Cousin Eddie is still begging Dimwit to talk to Princess Fi and make Princess Fi return. Dimwit doesn't want to get involved. Cousin Eddie won't take no for an answer. Cousin Eddie is creepy enough to be part of the Addam's Family.

Dimwit is moping on Emili-Oh's sofa about the sad state of affairs in her life. Emili-Oh shows up and wants to know why she so sad. She then rehashes everything that has happened to her and how she loves a man who doesn't recognize her. If anyone out there has been even half-way following the recaps, there's nothing new to add. Emili-Oh tries to cheer her up while a violin wails mournfully in the background. Apparently they need a scene to fill the time slot.

Princess Fi is telling Octopus about her adventures the day before. She almost got hit by a car. The driver was a jerk at first, but then turned out to be a hottie. Princess Fi eventually tells Octopus the driver's name, Diablo Suarez. Octopus replies, "That's Dimwit's husband!"

Emili-Oh bursts into Fidiota's office at Perfumes 'R Us. "Perfume sales are up, thanks to Dimwit's excellent leadership!" Fidiota has apparently refilled her brandy decanter. Emili-Oh drones on about Dimwit and then asks Fidiota "Don't you care? Aren't you going to ask about Dimwit? About Maxito?" Fidiota isn't interested. Those malditas have fallen in love with the sons of her worst enemy!

Princess Fi and Octopus are discussing Dimwit, of course. Princess Fi doesn't think Dimwit knows that Maxi-Moron has been committed. Octopus thinks it's only a matter of time until Dimwit finds out. Princess Fi decides to make friends with Diablo in order to keep tabs on Dimwit.

Fidiota is rehashing all the evil things Octopus has done to her in the past. Emili-Oh tries to reason with her about Max and Larry not being responsible for the actions of their mother. Fidiota refuses to listen. She never wants to see her girls again until they renounce the Irascible brothers.

We see the legs of a person approaching Maxi-Torpid's hospital bed. Danged if the person isn't wearing those ubiquitous white shoes worn by all the males in the show! Anyway, it's Nurse Wretched, coming to give Max another injection of the mystery drug to keep him crazy. She gloats this injection is going to make her $5,000 richer. What a shame! It sucks to be him! Right as she's getting ready to do the deed, her arm is grabbed. It's Dimwit wanting to know what the heck she's giving Max. There are no orders requiring an injection! Commercial.

Now Maxi-Moron wakes up and want to know what's going on. Dimwit again repeats the question, "What are you trying to inject into Max?"

Camila and Doc Evil are discussing the likelihood that Nurse Wretched will go through with the injection. Camila points out Nurse Wretched would swim in a sea of sharks for the money. They hope everything goes as planned. They then discuss payment of the fee, using Cousin Eddie's money. Right on cue, Cousin Eddie shows up. He lumbers over with a mopey look on his face. "What are you doing here? I thought you were at work," says Doc Evil. "I'm too depressed to work," whines Cousin Eddie. Cousin Eddie then mentions he talked to Dimwit about helping him. Camila and Doc Evil are impactada!

Dimwit and Nurse Wretched are still arguing over the injection. Dimwit is going to ask the director what was ordered. Finally Nurse Wretched states the director doesn't know about it. It's just some medication to calm Max's nerves. Max says he doesn't want an injection. Dimwit says he doesn't need one; he's calm. Nurse Wretched says, "Fine! If he has a breakdown, it's YOUR responsibility!!!" Nurse Wretched storms out.

Finally a scene with Larry and Gaby. Unfortunately they really need to return to reality. Lunkhead needs to be with Max and Little Doormat has a trial approaching. They swear to one another they will never let anyone separate them again! Lots of hugs and kisses. Together they will face the wrath of everyone!

Kick Me is yelling at Granny M and Lala. How dare Little Doormat run off with Lunkhead! Lala tries to talk reason into Kick Me, but Kick Me calls her an old lady and tells her to go back into her kitchen. Kick Me then tells Granny M he is going to teach Gaby to respect him!!!! Granny M doesn't seem to find anything frightening about Kick Me's statement. I, on the other hand. . .

More arguing among Cousin Eddie, Camila, and Doc Evil. Cousin Eddie is defending Dimwit. "She's good and enchanting! I won't have you talking bad about her. She's going to help me get Princess Fi back." Doc Evil tells Cousin Eddie he needs to keep his dignity and let Princess Fi go. Finally Cousin Eddie storms out, with Camila mimicking him "Encantadora!" Humpf!

Roddy calls Fidiota, who is still clutching her drink, to tell her Gaby's trial is set in four more days. Fidiota apologizes "for being in a bad mood, last night." Roddy, the enabler, says there's "nothing to apologize for, my love."

Lala and Granny M are discussing Gaby's disappearance. Granny M says Gaby is "crazy in the head." Lala corrects her. "Gaby's in love. There's a big difference!" Gaby then walks through the door. Hugs all around!

Dimwit and Maxi-Torpid are discussing the plans for his day. Cousin Eddie than calls and wants to meet for lunch. Finally, Dimwit agrees. Maxi-Aburrido wants to know if the call is from the father of her baby. "No," says Dimwit. "Is he your lover?" asks Max. "No. He's just a friend." Maxi-Aburrido then says how easy it must be for men to fall in love with her. And want to kiss her. He then closes in. They both stare at each other vapidly. When he's an inch away from her face. . .

Credits roll.

How long is it going to take Fidiota to come around to the idea of Diana and Gaby being married to the Irazabal boys? Doesn't she realize that would make her their mother-in-law? If she's horrid, then she makes their lives hell-Win! If she's nice, they like her better than Octavia-Win! It could turn into a whole new game...who's going to live in the Mansion, where are the kids and grandkids spending holidays, who gives them better presents...I think she's passing up a prime revenge opportunity here :)
 

Dear 5ft:

That is a very funny spin on the mother-in-law-from-hell idea.

The writers on this show are not that subtle, I'm afraid!
 

The writers on this show are delighting in torturing us viewers.

My sympathies in advance to whoever gets stuck recapping today's installment.
 

Thanks for the recap! =)
 

5 Ft,

I love your idea! I never gave it that much thought! Apparently, the writers haven't either :) Now I'm looking forward to today's episode. If today is episode is 119, then we technically only have 71 episodes until Luscious and Gaby (and we) can finally get some satisfaction!
 

I just saw today's episode. I'm glad I'm not the one doing the recap; I believe it's poor Amy. I couldn't stand it!
 

"Oh, Diana, is that your baby daddy on the phone?" That Max really is an idiot but I still think he's hot. I stand by it!!! 5ft, I'm glad to see you commenting on another show, I miss you and all the rest of the people from La Fea!

Lori
