Caray, Caray!

Kike is getting while the getting’ is good. Juan tries to cheer him that all marriages go through this, and underneath it all you love each other, but he says he’s had it and he just wants to go because she wants another joe. Squeaking noises as Juanito rubs Kike’s belly. Juan says not alone we are going too.

Back inside Yadi plays the victim and says well he wanted to go, so now I am being treated as if I were a big-footed spider (araña patuda). Nid and Mar in concert shake yes. Nid tells her Kike wanted you to beg him to stay, but you didn’t. Mar chimes in that it’s about time he left because he’s tolerated way too much and she hopes she doesn’t realize too late what she’s lost. Yadi recites a bunch of things that show she clearly doesn’t mind losing him. Nid tells her he’s not a loser, he’s a hard worker and a splendid papa. Yadi just doesn’t want him anymore.

In the car Kike bawls and Juan knows where to bring him. They show up at Anga’s telling him the red card has been pulled out and Kike has been ejected and needs a place to go.

Upstairs, Yadi tells Nid Mich they can go ahead by themselves without that useless guy.

Anga tells Kike that maybe now he will learn to not humiliate himself for a woman who doesn’t want him. Juan says it’s too much for now he just needs some peace. Juan tells Anga, that really, will he offer Kike political asylum? Anga thinks and says fine he can stay.

Jito tells Juan that when he grows up he doesn’t want a girlfriend or to get married. Juan says oh don’t worry when you grow up and the hormones start raging you’ll reel them in like slapping fish lined up for a banquet. Or something like that. He also tells Jito that everyone in love is beat up because men are like piñatas and love is the wacking stick. There are some pains but enjoyment too. He continues that as hard as he tries to resist love, he’ll see when some little young goat comes along and closes her eyes and blows him one (or blows up his manhood, not sure) he’s going to end up flat on his behind (knocked out by love’s punch essentially).

The next day, Juan is at the notario sealing CL’s fate and according to him maybe doing yet another crazy thing for love. Juan asks Moni if it would be good to go and tell CL now, and she tells him ooooh sorry, I’m off to the beach to live with my new hunk. You’ll have to tell him yourself. Juan is not sure he likes that.


Ivy comes in to tell Cl he has a call from Muñiz and Muñoz. He does not know who they are but he’s about to find out! The guy on the phone wants to set a meeting to discuss the dissolution with CL. He tells the guy not in his dreams. He hangs up. The phone rings and Ivy says it’s probably him again. Cl yells for her to get it and tell him to ask for meetings with his grandmother, because he’s not taking the call ever!

Delirio goes in to Nid who is brooding about the Yadi situation. He calls her his sweet honey syrup, Panal de Miel and offers her a Te de Gordolobo with cat’s claw but Nid can’t tolerate anything right now, least of all the cat’s claw. She’s upset about her girls. Nid says first Marely, and now Yadi is about to ruin her life. She says he should have told her right away, but he claims privilege. She tells him to give her a break with the client business crap, he should have told her. She whines that Yadi isn’t listening to reason at all.

Laura tells Moni how everything will work out fine. Moni has butterflies. Gus shows up to fetch her. Goodbyes, and musing over this being the first day of the rest of their life stuff ensues. Juan narrates that just as some go, some stay and as some are just leaving others come back, and as for some the doors to the past are closed, so the doors of the future are opened for others. Juan proudly walks up the steps at Farell, which I’ve never seen before actually….

Pau gets the news that her husband was less than helpful regarding the divorce negotiations. Pau tells Munoz she’ll take care of CL.

Perfan says if Nid can’t convince one side, try the other. He means Topete himself. She says she’ll never get him to listen to her. He instead is convincing Nid to send an emissary, himself, and she says if he can get Topete to withdraw moving in with Yadi she doesn’t know how she will repay him. He says her smile will be enough. Let’s see if that is the case.

Juan shows up at Farell and Ivy says he’s crazy, that CL is way out of sorts, he should not dare go in. Juan says either he’s announced or he’ll go in. Ivy announces him. CL thinks he has “big pants” for coming here, and calls him INFELIZ, MISERABLE. CL says he has no shame to come here and rub it in that he has taken his wife. Juan didn’t come to talk about Pau, but business.

CL cackles incessantly, that the swift sandal, GUARACHE VELOZ, greasy hick chauffer CHOFFER GRASIENTO Y NACO and mountain goat sucker CHUPACABRAS DEL MONTE came to talk to the jefe about business. Ha Ha. Juan admonishes him to sit. Cl even is surprised he uses tu. Juan thinks he should treat him with more respect, even offer him a drink as a socio. He finally lays it out. He says Mrs. Moni, whom I think you know well, has sold me her shares. All of them. I’m your socio. CL stops laughing. And Man I want to stop typing already I have been typing for 6 days straight on a project for work and I could really use voice recognition technology right about now. Oh well…
Commercials.

CL asks what this clown trick is. Juan says just what he said. He assures him that everything is on the up and up. CL curses Moni. Juan thinks it makes sense that she wants out to go live in another country without anything lingering. CL calls him an INFELIZ again and Juan tells him to watch his words talking to his socio.

Nid tells Yadi that every marriage has it’s problems and not to give up. Yadi mentions Nid’s marriage with her Dad, and that didn’t go so well, and she’s not about to end up the same way. She doesn’t want to be with that loser. Nid sings Kike's praises but Yadi is not swayed and she tells Nid she’ll give "the big stomach" away gladly to the first one who asks her. Oh and Nid doesn’t need to watch her daughter because she’s taking her to school.

This should be interesting. I had an event like this in school once. A lady came into class late, set down a tape recorder on a windowsill and turned around and walked right out again. The professor stopped class and went ballistic (very unprofessionally) and ran after her. When the professor learned the reason he calmed down and allowed the recorder to remain. Well, I was in front so I could see the exchange, and it turns out she had her baby with her because she had no one to watch it, but she didn’t want to come in with the child and didn’t want to miss the class, so I think she sat outside the whole time and collected the tape afterwards. Funny, anyway…

Ivy tells the lizards she can’t hear anything, screams, punches, nothing. They all speculate about what is happening. They wonder if maybe they are fighting or if CL is offering Juan money to leave the country. Fer chimes in that no way, Juan is not the kind of guy to be for sale.

Juan convinces CL as odd as it is that the former chauffer is now at your level, get used to it. CL asks what Juan expects to accomplish. He asks if Pau has something to do with this game. Juan says, no game, nor does she have anything to do with it, he makes his own decisions. CL asks why Moni didn’t tell him last night. Juan says you have to ask her if you can find her.


The lizards continue speculating, Julia thinks maybe they are reconciling not fighting. Pastor tries to break it down for everyone. Just then Pau shows up and wonders whose birthday it is. Mar tells her no birthday gathering, Juan is in Cl’s office. Pau rushes in. Looks like Marely is trying to copy her big sister lately. She’s rivaling the milkshake show these days. Pau seems to have cut hers down a little, surprisingly.


CL tells Pau what does she think about this, her little friend came to tell me he’s the new socio of Farrell. She wonders what kind of joke. Cl rambles on but she wants to hear it from Juan. Juan says it’s true he bought Moni’s shares. Pau is impactada. Juan says he has to go, and that he will talk to CL later, and bye Pau. Ice stare.

Pastor wants to know whats up and Juan spills nothing, he just came to say hello. Juan even quashes Marely. Fer follows him into the elevator. He gets outside and Fer can barely contain himself. He confirms Juan got it and gives Juan the biggest hug. Juan explains how impactado CL was, but that Pau was less than enthused, he’s not sure about her and wonders what’s going on up there.

Cl plays the victim and whines about what Moni did and she not only ended the marriage, but also the business. THE WORLD HAS BETRAYED ME. CL asks if she really didn’t know. She says of course, because if she did, he says, what, you would have stopped him, or came to told me? She stares blankly, cause duh, she probably wouldn’t have done anything, but she says maybe she would have. Cl tells her to leave. There’s nothing left to say and no sense in her being here. She says good bye and saunters off.

Perafan at lunch is painting Yadi out not to be so great. Topete is telling Perafan he wants his life with Yadi, but Delirio threatens to sever their association. Topete says, ha, no worries there, this would have happened anyway because of your lack of talent and ineptitude as a lawyer, so guess what, I don’t care, I only did it to be with Yadi, good riddance.

Anga is yelling at Heri whom he thinks is lazy. Juan shows up and backs him up and sends Heri off on a task. Anga asks how it went. Juan tells him how CL looked as if he was denied credit, etc. and then Pau showed up. He asks how Kike is, and then why Pastor isn’t living there anymore. Anga says he’s not sure he wants Pastor’s “style of living” in his own home and at this age it’s hard for him to change his way of thinking.

Cl is telling of the bombshell to Pastor, that the ORANGATAN is now half owner of this business!! Pastor throws back CL’s whiskey!!

Back at Anga’s Juan is telling Anga to have patiene with Pastor because he’s his only relative and he should accept him, they are arguing about this when Pau shows up. More ice stares.

At school, the only one behaving like an adult is the baby. I sure hope they pay her well. Marga tells Yadi this is not a preschool and she has to choose between school and motherhood, that there is no way to do both, etc. Yadi calls her professora Amarga instead of Marga (meaning bitter). Yadi outside of the classroom runs into Topete, and hands him the baby because she has something unfinished to do. Uh oh.

Pau yells at Juan for hiding things from her and going behind her back to stick it to CL. He swears Moni made him promise not to say anything, and this is a business and he didn’t do it to stick it to CL, rather it’s a good business deal. He wonders why she’s so ticked anyway, because he is hurting CL????


And there we leave it. Whew.
