Caray, Caray!

We start this episode with a few scenes from yesterday, the most interesting one being
ARNALDO and CECI!? Took me by surprise, almost as much as it did them when they woke up next to each other.

After their initial shock, Ceci asked Arnaldo "What did you do to me?" Arny logically responds "What did YOU do to ME because we both know it was probably you who provoked it!" Although neither seem to remember. The doorbell's insistently ringing which makes Arny get out of bed, pulling the sheet with him. Ceci shrieks in horror that he might see her nekkid but Arny figures it's too late for her to be modest. He yells for whoever is at the door that he's on his way at which time Ceci remembers that Andres is coming over this morning. Uh-oh.

Gloria, Silvana and Isela are having breakfast and discussing Silvana's great opportunity. Silvana is grateful to Isela for letting her leave her job at the IHOP while Gloria extols her own virtues as the perfect mother to help Silvana in her career as a model. The doorbell rings and a huge flower arrangement shows up. Gloria takes the flowers, stiffs the delivery boy and raves about how beautiful and expensive the flowers are. Of course, she opens the card and - surprise, surprise - they are for her. As Isela says, what a coincidence...Gloria claims they are from her secret admirer.

At Casa Moran, Diego, Lidia and Clemi are having breakfast. They are discussing Clemi's job and her health. Clemi likes working, Lidia says Manuel wants her to quit and Diego gives his permission that she keep working as long as she takes care of herself too. Manuel comes in from outside where he was trying to get the car running. Diego offers his car to his father but Manuel seems to think that a man of his importance should have a better car. Diego says he could take public transportation at which point Manuel accepts Diego's offer. Lidia makes a joke which I think was Well, call a tow truck when it catches on fire.

Ceci has finally answered the door but it is Julio, not Andres. Julio is looking for Arny because he didn't come home last night. Ceci is spinning lies left and right, trying to get rid of Julio. She gets him out the door and Arny comes out. Arny and Ceci agree to not say anything for their mutual benefit.

Katy and Mo come into the bedroom where Azul is sleeping alone. Azul talks about Katy's Mami Liliana, saying it is better for Katy to remember her. Mo reluctantly agrees but looks severely pissed.

Arny goes to Tia Ines. Ines tells him that Julio was already there looking for him. When Ines asks why, Arny says he was unfaithful to Julio. Ines can't believe it and her disbelief increases when he tells her that, worse yet, he was with a WOMAN!

Azul and Katy arrive at Emilia's for their joint counseling session which starts with Emilia telling Azul that she made up with GSD. Happy smiles all around.

A very austere woman is teaching the modelling class with Silvana and Ceci in attendance, along with a couple other hopefuls. Who should be pacing in the back of the room but GLORIA! The teacher is talking about things a model should avoid - smoking, drinking, and bad posture, which makes Ceci sit up a little straighter from her bored, slumped in the chair, tomboy position. Silvana's status as prize student is emphasized by Gloria's clapping and giggling happily in the back. The teacher talks about how a model should walk, which excites Gloria so much that she has to strut in front of the class, demonstrating. When two volunteers are called, guess who are picked - Ceci (sleeping beauty) and Silvana (which causes Gloria to go into a fit of clapping glee). The teacher holds up Ceci as a prime example of what not to do. Bad posture, bags under her , not enough sleep, too much drinking! She is sent to get some rest and come back tomorrow when she's ready to learn. Silvana is told to walk so that the whole class can appreciate her walking. This sends Gloria into fits of ecstasy. Ceci hangs out in the back of the room.

Gustavo arrives at Casa Moran to talk to Diego. Lidia thinks he's there for her but he talks to Diego about the cars while Lidia looks coy. He meets Clemi.

Manuel is driving Piero to work in Diego's beat up car. Piero is a little embarrassed but Manuel thinks it's better than walking. They talk about Mo and Manuel tries to convince Piero to pad the books a bit and squeeze a little more money out of Mo.

Gustavo and Diego talk more cars and Lidia volunteers a plan to keep Gustavo around a little while longer.

Julio is telling Ceci not to waste his money on the modeling course. Arny walks in and Ceci gets a really guilty look on her face. Julio kicks Ceci out so he can talk to Arny alone. Julio takes Arny to the back room.

Gustavo has taken the Clemi and Lidia to the doctor's office, brought food, and has otherwise ingratiated himself with the women. Clemi gets a thoughtful look on her face and says he reminds her of Paco.

Diego arrives at Azul and Ceci's apartment and he and Azul play kissy kissy until Azul feels guilty again and backs off. Azul tells Diego that Katy found Paco's driver's license in the garden at Mo's old house.

GSD goes to Ines' house at her summons but is annoyed. Ines quickly shuts him up by saying "Last night Arnaldo slept with a woman." No need to beat around the bush Ines. GSD looks impactado. I would have expected him to look happy.

Julio demands to know who Arny spent the night with. Arny says he was with his father.

Meanwhile GSD can't understand what Ines just said. Finally it sinks in and then he looks happy. Almost dances a jig, hugs Ines, all smiles. GSD wants to know who is this wonderful woman who is setting his son on the path to normalcy.

Ceci is eavesdropping on Julio and Arny when Gaspar catches her. She doesn't seem to hear anything. Gaspar knows. Meanwhile Arny is spinning it to Julio as best he can. Julio's not buying it. Finally he comes around but wants to verify it with GSD.

GSD leaves Ines but wants her to find out who the girl is. Ines sees it as a reason to see GSD on a regular basis, as his spy. GSD thinks he will be the happiest man in the world if his son were only normal. (Don't mind that deathly virus your daughter has, fix the gay son!)

Azul and Diego are talking and kissing at the same time. One would think that talking about the murder of your best friend and other people disappearing would kill the mood.

Jacinto calls Mo and tells him Azul went to her apartment and Diego showed up a couple minutes later.Mo jumps up in rage and the music plays... After the commercial, Mo has his usual fit of rage, throws things, pounds things, swears, etc. Meanwhile, Diego and Azul are trying to list all the things Mo has done and Azul finally believes him. More kissy kissy.

Ceci is baring her soul to Gaspar, saying her and Arny woke up together but don't remember anything. Gaspar doesn't like women who have to try and change gay men and not accept them like they are. Julio and Arny make up and come out of the closet - literally. Julio continues the boutique business as if nothing happened. Ceci asks Arny how he could he just go back to Julio after the night they had. He asks if she remembers but she says no, but it must have been great. Arny is not amused.

Mo is still having a major temper tantrum. Andres comes in to try and calm him. Meanwhile Azul and Diego are still kissing at the apartment while Mona Lisa looks on. (I hadn't noticed that before) Diego says he won't let her go back to Mo. They argue, while kissing, and Azul says she has to go back for truth's sake.

Mo's still beating the walls. Andres is still trying to calm him. Mo swears vengeance on them both. Now Andres is encouraging him. Mo calls Piero to ask if Diego's parents still live in the same house. Ominous music.

Arny arrives at GSD's and receives the welcome of the prodigal son. GSD happily agrees to be Arny's alibi, but Arny doesn't know that his father knows he slept with a woman. But I would think he would be suspicious since GSD is acting like he has just won the lottery.

Gustavo takes Clemi and Lidia home. Lidia has talked to the doctor and he has told her that her mother is very sick. Lidia cries on Gustavo's shoulder.

Gloria walks Silvana home from class. Silvana is embarrassed and Gloria is spewing more advice. Silvana says she has to go visit Clemi.

Lidia opens her mother's door to ask if she's awake and then escorts Mo into the room to see her.

Until next episode...
