Caray, Caray!

Here's what dear Barbara wrote for us. Great recap, Barbara!

I watched most of the show last night and made a few notes but since I don't currently have the ability to record the show and go back to fill in the holes or my misunderstandings, please do not think too poorly of the following and please fill in or correct as needed. Also, I am not sure of all the characters names as I have been only seeing parts of the show on Tues and Thursday night and filling in with the recaps on the other nights. So after all my disclaimers, here goes.

--Missed the first 7 minutes. Hopefully was a rehash of the end of yesterday's show. I come in on a scene where Ale and Rafa are arguing about sale methods. Her methods don't work for Rafa and he is unable to sell any cars. Ale of course just says he's incompetent and then starts railing against him for insulting Marco about his treatment of Ale. Her relationship is none of Rafa's business!

--Scene with Julieta and other kids (young adults) at a table outside. A guy pulls away some books and they start chanting "reveton" over and over. I got distracted and totally did not get this scene.

--Flashback to Ale and Rafa. Rafa says if he had a woman that was as great, wonderful, intelligent, beautiful, (or at least that is what he meant) as her--he would never let her take the taxi to work or live off of her. He would want to take care of her and treat her like a queen she is. For a second, Ale seems wistful, bemused, touched. Then she throws him out of her office, laughing at his torn pants as he turns to leave.

--Next we see Ale and Marco talking. Ale is telling Marco that Rafa has sold nothing. Marco says he will pick Ale up tonight but he may be delayed because he has a meeting with the aseguradora (insurer?). He of course is with Chavez. And, surely he is meeting with some hot new babe Chavez introduces to him--Karen Sandoval.

--Rafa is stapling his pants together while talking to Jaime on the phone. He is lamenting his lack of sales, how he wants to pay Ale the money he owes and how his sister and mother depend on him. What is going to happen to them if he goes to jail? Unbeknownst to him, Ale has approached him from behind and looks as if she feels bad for him. When Rafa gets off the phone she calls him into her office and shouts at him that she is giving him one more chance. But someone who gets one more chance--when should he get a day off? Never! He needs to work all the time including the and THIS weekend. Rafa swallows hard and agrees.

--Now another long telephone conversation with Rafa and Vicky where he tries to explain to her why he has to work and why he cannot keep their date this weekend. She of course goes ballistic. She repeat the assertion she has made before--"YES, I would rather see you in jail! At least would know where you are and that you are not around other women." Rafa actually says that if Vicki cannot be more supportive that he doesn't know if their relationship can work. More crying and screaming and Vicky say ADIOS! (Oh if I could only believe it).

--Susana has gotten the pen Ale wanted for Marco. Ale is happy, loves Marco. Susana is doubtful but says Ale is beautiful. Marco calls Ale. He is delayed at his meeting. He is discussing investments he is being shown. He'll be there soon.
Next scene, he and Karen Sandoval are getting to know each other. He's a lawyer, single. She's divorced but looking. He caresses her thigh and appreciates her bikini clad look.

--Next work calls me so I'm trying to get what I can. Several scenes of Jorge and his friend being driven around by another friend? Don't know who--but the big issue is that Jorge cannot direct them to his house and I think we are in suspense as to whether he will find home and get there while Marco, Chavez and all the party-harty people are there. Is this right?

--Last scenes: Many at Auto Siglo want to go out drinking. They pressure those that really don't want to go including Rafa. Later we see them dancing, enjoying themselves. Someone from Auto Siglo says put it on Rafa's account! Rafa hears this and this time actually blows a gasket. He and Medina get into a verbal pissing war. A bet is made. Please someone explain it to me. Is seems that Medina needs to sell three cars while Rafa sells one. Whoever loses, loses their hair?????
