Caray, Caray!

Santi and Lalo are considering a bet when they go out of the door and see that former patient Raquel shows up. All we know is that she got special "favors" from him. Lalo leaves him and begs him to be strong. He fears temptation.

He calls Horty whispering that he wants to know what Raquel wants and begs Horty to come. She does and tells him she doesn’t get into that with the patients and all she knows is that Raquel asked for an appointment. He wants the nurses or her to stay in the room with him, but of course the nurses didn’t come in yet because their kids are sick and she has to have some tests performed and has to leave. She tells him to grow up and handle it and he asks for a hug which she gladly provides until she reaches his cheeks (butt) and he flinches so is left to his own devices. Poor Santi...

Finally Raquel saunters in and sexy music plays. He tells her he doesn’t think she needs any more surgery and she responds that she isn’t there to see the doctor, instead, the man.

Pat shows up with white roses for Sole. Of course Candy is there and she manages to duck under the couch. We then go through rotations of Sole wanting to make out with Pat but then wanting him to leave and telling him she has a migraine. Pat smells the perfume and thinks Candy is there, but Sole says that she put it on. He wants to go to the bed but she convinces him it’s sexier out here. Eventually Candy works her way out crawling on the floor, but pops her head up when she hears that they spent the night together making whoopee. She makes a funky face as she exits floor left. Sole tells Pat he has to go now so Beto doesn’t find him.

Meno comes upon Issy in the kitchen putting on chartreuse face cream. It looks scary. He wonders about it and she offers it to him for application. He wants the recipe. She notes he’s flirty. He continues to apply and they discuss how he wanted to be a hippie but his father beat it out of him! He continues how he didn’t like Yoko Ono because it was her fault the Beatles broke up. Hmmm interesting. She thinks maybe they wanted to break up at the height of their career.

They continue their chat when Charly comes shouting for him. Meno hides under the towel and Issy tells Charly he suffered a wasp sting. This satisfies him for a moment but then he comes back in and asks if she got one too. She says no, hers is a mask for wrinkles. Meno thanks her for saving him, but she tells him that he either lives in the closet or lives out of it, but not in the closet with the door open or it will cause him a heart attack.

Lalo is trying to listen in to Santi’s door when Raquel’s boxing husband shows up looking for her whom he followed there and she didn’t answer her cell phone. Luckily when he enters the room he only finds Santi and Raquel talking. She leaves announces she will be faithful with him until death.

Lalo wonders what he said to fend her off. Santi told her he was gay, and don’t laugh because he also said that Lalo was his lover. Lalo screams.

Back in the office Santi is yelling at Lalo for always using his computer . Lalo likes the keys. He starts a pity me speech that he has all this great stuff, kid, career, Mom, but he’s not happy!!! Lalo tells him to breath and relax. He tells him he should scream now what is bothering him. Instead what’s bothering Lalo comes out that he doesn’t want her to work, and that he wants her to cook, etc. Santi tells him to compose himself.

OK, is anyone else annoyed at the Ugly Betty sound alike musical excerpts here? I swear Rosy Ocampo is channeling Selma Hayek and trying to copy. Even the scene opener photos are plagerized.

At home Donato comes up to Santi with two pairs of boxing gloves and basically doesn’t know what to do about the two Mamas who keep fighting with each other. Trouble is going to get worse because Marissa also shows up, sees Chava and wonders why he’s there so early. She learns the news of the new Brady bunch situation and is very unhappy about this. Donato hands Santi the gloves saying he’ll need them more now.

Of course she chases Santi down and tells him she’s no fool. He explains the whole situation about those pesky hamster rats invading, well except for the "hamster" detail.

Pat is leaving the house and Candy has to hide from him by sliding around a fountain.

Mari continues she isn’t a little girl. Donato agrees through the window. They punch him. Santi tells her not to make a mountain out of a mole hill (well, really a grain of sand) and that jealousy is getting the best of her. He continues that if he wanted to mess with Candy does she think he would bring her right there to his house? He reminds her she can come to the house anytime she wants. She thinks maybe in his head he would. She says she is not going to standby and let this happen and she shouldn’t have to give his butler money just to get up to his room. Santi yells at Donato for this. All this bicker ends up with her telling him to go to hell.

I thought this scene didn’t make sense but now I realize they are spending the doc's money. Zamora and Tono are in a fine restaurant with a bottle of champagne and one hell of what looks like a camarones platter. They ask what it is that they are eating and learn it is fried cow brains (sesos de vaca frita). Yum. Mad cow express. They are choking when Meno comes up and wonders what they are doing there.

Our teens in love are studying and gradually sit in chairs closer to each other until they are standing and holding hands. Their bliss is short lived because of the evil bullhorn bearing butler (say that 5 times fast) and he slaps the hand that they each held.

We then go to selfish Candy shaking down Sole and making her feel really bad for being with Pato. Sole rightly reminds her that he’s nothing to her, she left him a widow long ago. Candy says he is only going to want her for sex and then he’ll move on to another and how can she be so stupid. She’s not stupid, she’s lonely. She doesn’t like being alone. (How long has it been? A couple of months? Pick a better excuse Sole, admit you like his....) Sole misses having someone to make breakfast for. Ha, she can come to my house. Anyway, Candy storms off on an insult that Pato likes decaf, eggs, and papaya juice and if she wants any other advice to keep him in her bed every day, to call her. Snot. I don’t think Sole deserved that.

Candy and Ceci are shopping. Ceci is trying to console her but Candy just yells at her. She then says she’s sorry and knows something that will seal the perdon. Candy gets an idea and pulls Ceci with her. For some reason Barbara is right behind them also shopping and is intrigued at this display.

The young lovebirds have escaped the evil Donato and are chatting and Charly wants to know about her parents, that if she tells it might make her feel better. We get a flashback of her getting told as a younger girl that her parents aren’t coming back. She starts to cry saying sometimes she’s still waiting for them but her Tio helps her miss them less and hugs Charly.

Santi accuses Mari and Issy of conspiring against him because they are socios of Candy. I don’t know. This was more arguing about Candy being there and that sums up that. Santi says something about his heart being broken.

Candy and Ceci are looking at clothes when Barb comes up and makes trouble. She asks if Candy figured out what woman left her the roses yet. Candy isn’t sure it’s a woman but Barb bets yes. Barb snidely asks if Ceci will bet yes.


Jaime comes upon Donato, also shopping. He wants to know who the man in the house is. Jaime is interested in paying him for some information. Donato says it’s Meno, an old friend and he is a wonder, tremendous. Jaime asks if he is a womanizer and Donato says uh no, he’s tremendous. He then counsels that Issy really likes skirts.


Horty calls Candy whispering to let her know that Pat and wife are downstairs at the doc's office.
There is a weird exchange here, like Ali is deciding on what surgery she wants like the color of paint in her kitchen and she ends up to think they should invite them to dinner.


Back at the restaurant, the waiters tell Meno about how they got money because they were not rats, really hamsters and when they arrived to fumigate the Doc had already rounded them up. Whew. I hoped I was right about this. No smoked hamsters. Meno agrees not to tell anyone but they have to lie and not tell anyone either or they'll lose their jobs. Zman agrees he'll be Pinocchio.


Mari and Candy have a face to face about how she is in the house and didn’t tell her. Candi thought she knew, and can't we talk about this another time because I've had a horrible day. Mari agrees, she's had a bad day too thinking that people she thought were loyal aren't really loyal and faithful etc. Candy looks her in the eyes and asks her if she really thinks that she is capable of stealing her novio. Mari very seriously says yes, but this breaks down into a joke and she says no, of course not they are like sisters. Uhhuh....


Pato has taken Beto on an outing and they decide they are going to eat Tortas Ahogadas yum. But duh, Pato, first rule of separated parents is never take the kid away from the custodial parent without permission or notice, uh, bad, very bad. Of course Sole comes home and freaks out that Beto is not there and eventually comes to the conclusion that Pato has him. She calls and they are having a grand old time, but he completely discounts her anger and tells her as his Dad he has a right to see him, well, maybe....anyway she says if he doesn't bring him right back, she'll accuse him of kidnap. Yes, that could work....

Donato wonders when Meno is taking his son away, because he seems to be a tiger for Rocio. Meno says of course, he came from his Pa! Donato corrects him that he did come from a tiger, but not a tigress. Ouch. Meno warns him not to disrespect him again or his tooth and nails will come out.

Meno is wandering about and Jaime follows him. Meno notices this and confronts him, telling him essentially to just ask for his phone number already. He thinks Jaime should let go of his timidness and that they will try an exercise. Jaime doesn't exercise because he's ill and says ok, here's a book for you to read. "How to come out of the closet in the dark" There is a word play here because it can also be blindly coming out of the closet, but there's definitely a joke here beyond the gay reference.

Turns out that Jaime is still not so sure about Meno. He still follows. Meno's come on to him apparently didn't convince him he's not a threat and he still must think he's competition for Issy's affections. Meno ends up at home with Jaime still in not so secret tow and he asks Issy about this timid guy. Well of course Issy says, she'll introduce him to Meno. He's shocked she knows him, and even more so that this was, er well, she's not sure at her age, but it is her boyfriend. Jaime wants to know who he is and she explains a friend who is staying at her house, she presents Meno to Jaime, but he just walks away instead of shaking his hand. How rude!!!

Meno asks her if she likes him and she shrugs affirmatively so he plays his best Dr. Phill and follows after and tells Jaime he's a baboso (buffoon) and Babosos don't go to heaven, and he has to try a little harder and not let the precious Issy walk away. Jaime is stumped.

Pato has taken Beto to his house. That pisses Sole off more because he'll be around the wicked wifey...

Charly is making a banana shake, something we know Meno loves (and has been painted as a gay fave, so maybe son and father aren't that different despite the sexual orientation) and Meno tells the truth to Charly about the Hamsters...and Santi comes up and yells for Charly to leave Roci alone. Meno gets mad and says look, you leave my son alone if you don't want me to tell Candy about the "Hamster Rats." Santi agrees.

Beto is back home and Sole yells at him for leaving the house. Pato says it's not his fault it's mine. She tells Beto not to go like that or he won't ever get to go with Pato again. Beto says but he's my Dad and I want to see him! Oooooo, score one for Pato!!!!

Santi has "that talk" with Charly and reminds him he'll be at peace, but don't hurt my daughter of the soul....she is my daughter!!! Charly nervously agrees.


We then see some random blond guy warmly greeting Santi at home and exclaiming that he hasn't seen him probably since his wedding. Santi tells the guy his wife left him, but oh, here let me introduce you to Candy. She takes one look and SMACK!! right across the kisser, she backs up only to call him a murderer. Guess we know where this is going, but we'll have to find out next time.....
