Caray, Caray!

In the psych office, CL says he doesn’t like this one bit. Pau is telling CL that it was his idea to see the psychologist, and she agreed, so she thinks the least he could do is follow through with it now.

Marely is on the phone to the doctor who is telling her that she needs to bring her mother in for tests. Yadi is bugging her, she’s afraid that they will lock her away. Marely tells the doc she understands it’s urgent. Yadi asks who is going to be brave enough to try and bring her Mom in. Marely says she doesn’t know but even if they will need to put on a strong shirt (straightjacket) “camisa de fuerza” she must go because they need to do some tests on her and they can’t tell us anything until then.

At the police stations Juan is talking to the officer who is reading from the death certificate that Akito died from natural causes. Juan says that proves that he had no help dying. The guy says we’ll see, they went for the doctor and the truth will come out. Juan yells using only the last name and wants to know why he’s there then. The guy says that's Commandante Godines to him and besides he's in the judicial agency. He maintains his innocence and that he meant no disrespect because they used to play together a long time ago bandits and policemen when they were little. They guy says yes, and it seems we are still doing this except that this is not a game. He says Juan is accused of a serious crime, besides, he claims that Juan is keeping a car that doesn't belong to him. Juan says he’s not, the lady will keep it. He also says that anyway, she’s going into business with me, and we get along well and I was in business with her father. The sheriff says he spoke with the ladies and neither of them agreed that was the case. He tells himself that even though he didn't give Akito the fried pigskin (dar chicarrones a - bump him off) he’s in a predicament (chahuistle) here with Godines as commandante because this guy has it out for him from days long ago.

At Delfina’s, Delfi, Ang and Molo are discussing how degrading this is for Juan to be paraded through the street like a goat. They think it’s extremely unfair that he was taken in. Molo defends the police a little by saying it’s logical that he would be a suspect because he was the last to see Akito alive, and he is a stranger, and it’s proper to investigate him this way. Delfi says it’s a shame because the man died the way any man would wish, happy and in the arms of his beloved. Ang makes a face. He complains that they can't hold him without evidence. Delfi says what if they make some up, one never knows with that Godines. They all agree that the Chavez may have something to do with this. Ang and Molo head to the police station to find out what's up.

Juanito overheard this whole conversation and runs down asking Delfi why the whole world is afraid of his Dad. Delfi assures him that's not true and not to even joke about that.

CL and Pau endure psycobabble from the shrink lady who proposes that marriages fall about apart when there is a breakdown of communication, and a failure of trust. She ends up saying that relationships don't fall apart because of a lack of love rather because of fear. Fear of routine, ugliness, etc. Good to know. The doc thinks they need to start by telling each other what they dislike about each other the most and get it all out. I think this chic is a famous personality in Mexico but I'm not remembering who. Pau wants to start talking first and proclaims that their relationship started with a lie that CL was separating and unhappy when really he was tight with his wife. and that she was his shoulder to cry on..she trails off...

Delfi tells Juan that his Dad did nothing and that justice will prevail despite the bad wishes of others. Juanito wonders why he is in jail then and Delfi says because of the past. Juan says oh because he got under the girlfriend (bajo a la novia)(I think it's a reference to him fooling around with his girlfrined) and Delfi scolds him that those are adult things that he shouldn't worry about at his age.

The Chavez bask in the glory that Juan was hauled in, except for Erlinda who is sure that he is innocent and that they will see eventually. The pa shuts up the boys and says he'll wait to see how it turns out.

Juan gets sent to jail and he yells that he shouldn't be there and that he has the right to a phone call and a lawyers and liberty etc. Juan suggests that maybe this is because of what happened with Justina and Godines gets super angry and tells him not to mention her name he still hurts because of her betrayal. Juan tells him he can't hold that against him after all of these years, etc.

Ang and Molo are down in the station beggin for Juan's release on the basis of him being held in violation of the constitution and against his rights for only suspicion. Godines makes it clear that this is a precaution and his justice is all that matters in that town.

Back in the shrink room Pau finishes ratting out CL to the doc who says it sounds like there is a lot of blame going around. She wonders if CL would like to say anything before they continue with this exercise and he says no. She tells them that they need to ask for forgiveness from the people around them, the people that aren't near them anymore. Pau thinks this sounds very logical. CL is of course cynical and suspicious of her motives. Pau thinks he needs to try or they won't get anywhere. He asks her to give him a little chance at understanding him and directing things. She barely lets him kiss her good bye. I think she forgot to put on her clothes today. I

As soon as she leaves he calls Pastor on the phone and yells at him as a huge animal, first class clown and imbecile and the Nobel winner for stupidity etc. Pastor asks if it's him? He says of course, who else the Senor de Chalma (a religious apparation and holy place in Mexico)? He says they will talk when he gets back. Pastor shakes in his designer shoes.

Juan thinks to himself in the jail cell reflecting on his predicament, and also thinking how awful it is for his son that he's just barely gotten to know him, and he's separated from him already and that he must think horrible things about him. He hears Delfi coming to see him. She asks him if Molo and Ang came he says yes but he's worried about Juanito. She tells him he's upset but she told him all this is lies and that Juan will get out soon. Juan tells her how worried he is about him and begs her to take good care of him. She says not to worry.

In the reception area Juanito is screaming that he wants to see his Papa, but they say that Juan has had enough visitors for today and that he needs to come back tomorrow. Juan thinks to himself as he hears Juanito fighting to see him, that there is no doubt he's got the family gusto and he was conflicted because while it was hard for him to hear him so upset, he was glad he was fighting for what he wanted. He couldn't wait for this to be over so he could be with him again. He prays to be able to prove his innocence and be with his son again.

CL shows up calling Pastor a disgusting rat chasing him around the office and wondering who recomended this therapist. Pastor reluctantly admits it was Monica. Cl is impactado. Pastor swears he only asked about needing a therapist and she suggested this one and he had no idea who she was. CL thinks she engineered this and that he is ridiuclously stupid for asking her. CL wants to yell at her about this but Pastor begs him to leave her out of it, that it was completely his fault. He says he'll see and takes off. Pastor immediatley calls Monica and tells her he was completely out of his mind and that he was forced to tell him that she recommended the therapist and that CL is on his way there. Moni too, calls him an idiot and that he's done it now. I knew this would weigh heavily on him trying to play both sides. He's not going to come out of this satisfying either side...I can just see it. Moni hangs up and warns Laura she ought go to her room because CL is on his way over and not to pay a social call.

Back in Achi, Juanito complains that he wants to see his Papa and Delfi says she does too, but they will have to wait. He worries about what might happen to his pa in there. Delfi has an idea. Next we see them both talking to Ms. Yamamoto and Susanna, trying to convince them that everyone here loved Akito and held him in high esteem and she make references to how he died happy, and Juan is honest, and he's suffering and had nothing to do with this and that even though Akito couldn't speak Spanish he was still cared for in a very special manner and Juan treated him very well, having taught him to dance and took really good care of him, entertaining him. The girls seem to watch blankly as she describes him as a little boy trapped in the body of a man and that he loves his town. She says something in what sort of sounds like Japanese and Delfi and Juanito give her thanks with a hands together bow.

At Casa Cachon Mar brings her Mom some breakfast and listens as Nidia cries about SAmuel running around with that fulana (whore/tart) Ana. Marely looks on frustrated.

While putting Juanito to bed Delfi assures him that his Pa is not a criminal and always lands on his feet and that he should pray to Santa Nino for his well being. She also tells him his feet smell like cheese.

Anga tells Molo that he thinks he'll send a great lawyer from the DF to help Juan out here. Molo thinks that's a great idea that Juan will appreciate.

Back in the DF, Kike is telling the Lic that he should stop complaining as he starts moving his things into Juan's room. Delirio says why, when his wife was never pregnant, she kicked him out of her room etc. Kike says well yes but try to see the positive side of things. Kike also warns him to respect Juan's things and his room. Delirio says as if he would put on that Naco's (Low class loser) socks or use his toothpaste. Alirio thinks that is what the young people disrespect. Kike goes to leave and tells him that if he doesn't come out of here then he won't get into problems.

CL shows up at Moni's demanding to know what the hell she is up to and whether she wants to destroy his marriage. Moni is impactada.

In jail Juan screams for a drink. Some guys show up bringing gifts from the women of the village for him, food and drinks. Juan thinks how generous and united the women of the village are and that if his little dove was there, she too would be helping him out.

Pau recalls the therapists words.

Moni says she's only trying to help and she's tired of watching him suffer. CL disbelieves. Cl says he has to try to work things out with Pau. Moni agrees that a marriage should be worked on hard and that everything possible should be done to make things better. He thinks this is absurd with a specialist in ending marriages. Moni thinks that's the best because it will really test their solidarity. She offers him a drink which he declines and leaves. She of course smiles.

Delfi hands Ang a beer and professes how upset she is about Juan's situation and what he must be thinking alone in his cell.
