Caray, Caray!

This is about the first third only, as I had to turn in my DVR for a new one, so I lost my recording of this and Friday.

We open with Diego and Azul fighting cute over the flat tire (llana or neumatico). Azul insists she will change it herself, and Diego watches and offers her a drink because it's so hot, etc. Finally she gives in and accepts his help. There is some double entendre here that I cannot understand. He says he is helping or something, and she says she is referring to the car. He says she makes him nervous because he wants things to go well.
He says if he can't concentrate it's her fault because he loves to see her smile. She says he also has a nice smile. Then he will smile all the time, he says. You will get wrinkles (arrugar), she says. If it made her happy, he would get as wrinkled as a pasita. (pasa is raisin, so it would be a little raisin)

You'll be ugly, she says. Oh, so you think I'm not ugly, he says. Well, she says, what is this ugly, ugly, ugly. You are not ugly, and you know it. Now they are back to changing the punctured tire.

He says he will help her get to the tire store after changing to the spare, and he hopes she will give him a lift (aventon) back to work, as he is late.

Back at home, Clemencia is on the phone. She is opening some boxes of medicine and telling the caller that they just came. She has to bring them to the Casa Hogar (household house?). Must be the charitable place they work. She says it's easy, he won't have to leave his post, her husband Manuel will give her a lift.

Manuel comes down. It was Demetrio the paramedic she had told him about. He asks her why she is so nervous and red. She says it's just that she ran down the stairs to answer the phone. Manuel wants to know how old Demetrio is. He's about fifty, but he acts very juvenile. All the nurses are crazy about him. She asks Manuel to take her to the Casa Hogar to return the medicines. Manuel wants to check out this "encantador," or enchanter of the ladies.

Meanwhile, Diego wants to know how Azul can resist the urge (aguantarse las ganas) to be with him. He is dying of love. She reminds him that she has a boyfriend and they are doing well. He asks if she and the boyfriend were seeing each other still when Diego first met her. He says it's incredible the security they have--he has no idea where it comes from--from you, he says. When can they see each other? (sad piano tinkling) We can never meet. We are going on separate "carriles," rails.
