Caray, Caray!

We start out with Daniel walking through the big house calling out to Renata. He ends up in the kitchen and is surprised to see Eva standing there.


He asks her what she is doing there. She seems just as surprised and is struck silent staring at him.


He repeats his question and she smarts back to him “Not you again.”
Dan stands his ground and repeats his question. She tells him she is working. This causes him to laugh stating “Now I understand Leo’s game.”



Eva seems confused and Daniel continues that it looks like she is the new help. Eva wants to know if he lives there as well. He tells her no but wants to know who hired her. “It was Leo right?” She tells him yes, and wonders if there is a problem. Dan tells her Leo is crazy. Eva argues with that and says she believes he is a decent person. He found her and apologized for what happened the other day. He felt bad that she lost her job. She continues to tell Dan that because of him she lost two jobs. She gets ready to leave and calls him an idiot. He grabs her arm and pulls her back asking if she really thinks that badly of him.

Vicky and Claudia are having some girl chat on the phone as Claudia is driving around in her snappy convertible. Claudia is crying to her chum that she is afraid she is loosing Leo. Vicky tells her she certainly will loose him if she doesn’t hurry up and get to the house immediately.


We are at the quaint little pension where Justa is talking with Alicia. They are discussing Eva’s new job. Alicia hopes she keeps this one because they need the money. Justa tells her not to worry because Eva is smart and a very good person. Alicia hopes her new employees think the same.

Back to the big house. Dan and Eva continue at one another. He still has her in a strong grip and she demands he let go of her.



Dan wants to know what will happen if he doesn’t. “Will you hit me again?” Eva is mad and disentangles from him He tells her to take it easy and not to forget this is her first day. Eva says “what are you going to do? Get me fired from this job too?” He tells her he should because he knows what a temper she has. She tells him he should respect her and tells him she needs to get back to work. Dan gets a cheeky smile on his face and asks her to get him a glass of water.

This does not go over well with Eva and she informs him she works for the owners of the house. She is not there to attend visitors. Renata enters and curiously asks Dan if something is wrong.

We have a new character added to the pension crew. It is Ricardo Guzman and he is defiantly sweet on Justa as he brings her some flowers.


Alicia approaches and is impressed with the flowers.

Dan is assuring Renata that nothing is the matter and he was looking for her. He wants to know where he can find Marcella. She tells him she just got home but is in Julio’s room. She wants to know if it is important and he tells her no he will catch up with her later. Renata now turns on Eva and wants to know what she is doing there listening into the conversation. She tells her to get Julio’s snack to him. She tells her to just go in without knocking. And to not make any noise that would startle him. She snaps at her for not addressing her as Miss Renata. (Those two are going to get along just fine. Ha ha!) She also tells Eva she wasn’t able to tell Marcella that she is working there but she will find out soon enough and before she leaves she chews her out because the apples don’t look right and turns to Dan asking if he needs anything else. Dan tells her he is fine and hangs out a little longer in the kitchen eating his apple.

More info on Ricky. It turns out he also lives at the pension. Justa introduces him to Alicia and tells her he trains boxers and when he was younger he was a great boxer. Alicia is quite impressed and tells him she loves boxing. He tells her he will get her tickets to the next match. Marisol suddenly enters and looks scared to death.

But that will have to wait as we go back to the mansion and where Eva is thanking Dan for not saying anything to Renata because she really needs this job. He tells her he is not the idiot she thinks he is. In walks Vicky who is smiling. She wants to know what Dan is doing in the kitchen. She sees Eva and gets a clue. She turns to her and wants to know who she is.

Marisol is tearing at her hair and Alicia wonders what’s up. She tells them if any one comes looking for her not to let them in.


Justa tells her she doesn’t like those kind of problems here and we suddenly hear loud banging on the door that has sent Marisol into a tail spin. She begs Ricky to help her. “Don’t let that man touch me!” (Holy spit!!!)

We are changing scenes so quickly here it is hard to keep up as we go back to Victoria who is now giving Eva the once over. She wasn’t aware that they had hired anyone yet and introduces herself to Eva. Eva offers her hand and an introduction and Victoria rudely turns her back to her to ask Dan what he is doing in the kitchen with the servant. (duh!! ) Something is said about her crazy brother Leo and suddenly Dan changes the subject and says lets go to the pool. Victoria is psyched for this and approaches Dan her man and takes the half eaten apple out of his hand. She turns to Eva and says “Here, what ever your name is, throw this away” setting the half eaten apple on the counter. They both leave.

The knocking is louder and the terror of the pensioners is heightened as Ricky says he will take care of this matter. Marisol tells him to be careful because this man is really dangerous. Ricky pumping his fist and heading to the door says he is too. In barges a very threatening looking man in a white straw hat yelling at Marisol saying this is the women he needs to talk too.





After a clever little commercial promoting this show we are now poolside. Claudia has entered and is telling Leo they have to talk. Leo tells her he doesn’t like to be controlled. She promises that it won’t happen again and asks him to forgive her.

We see Marisol cowering behind tiny Alicia telling hat man to take a hike and leave her alone. Ricky tapping him from behind tells him they don’t want any scandals and he tells him to leave as well. Hat man now enraged turns to Ricky and says “No one tells me what to do. Not until I fix my problems with Marisol.”



Ricky pulls him back from approaching Marisol with fists ready and warns him about all the fights he has won and adds another knockout to his scorecard as he punches the man out as the women look on in shock.


Leo is walking away from Claudia as she asks him if they are back together. No response is given as Dan and Vicky have joined the party. Leo wants to know if he found Marcela. Dan tells him no. Vicky looks confused and wants to know what game they are up to now. Then she asks if he and Leo have made up. Leo smiling dangerously says yes as he kisses Claudia and says they have an understanding. Vicky and Claudia thrilled at news are off to have some girl friend chat.

Leo now sitting down asks Dan what he thinks about his surprise. Dan wants to know why he did it. He tells him maybe it was to test himself. Dan shaking his head tells him he doesn’t understand what he is up to and it seems ridiculous. Leo gives a very creepy smile.



Marcela is in Julio’s room arranging flowers as we see a disinterested Julio lying in bed. She goes on about the goofy flowers. He is not impressed. She wants to know what she needs to do to make it right with him. Eva has entered the room with Julio’s food. She is met with a snipping Marcela demanding to know who she is. She wants to know why she would enter the room with out knocking. Eva stammers and tells her who she is and that she works here and says Renata told her to bring the food because Julio wasn’t feeling well. She seems petrified and asks if the dog bites. (I would be more afraid that Marcela might bite.) Marcela snarls at her and tells her to leave the food and gives her a hard time about where she puts it. She tells her to get out and wait for her outside the door.

Julio laughing, says to Marcella “It looks like you didn’t know anything about this new girl working here. Renata tells him no, but she will resolve it later. Eva is waiting for Marcella all in a fret praying she won’t get fired. Marcella approaches her and tells her to follow her.

Ricky, shaking his "knock out hand" as he closes the door, brags to the women that when you learn something you never forget it. Marisol goes to comfort him and wants to know if he needs ice for his hand. He tells her he is fine but she needs to fix her problem with the hat man. What would have happened if he hadn’t been there today. Justa chews her out telling her it better not happen again and that they need to have a serious talk. She knows the house rules. Marisol meekly nods her head in agreement.

Justa walks over to Ricky and invites him into the kitchen so she can fix his injured hand. Alicia is left behind with Marisol asking her who that hat guy was.

Marcela is yelling for Renata as Eva wrings her hands in fear. She turns to Eva and asks her what she is doing at there house. Eva explains that Leo hired her. Marcela is outraged. Her son doesn’t do the hiring around the house. She is the only one who does that. She continues snapping at Eva and Eva snaps back saying instead of yelling at me why don’t you go ask your son.


Alicia wants more info about the hat guy. Marisol isn’t talking. She tells her there’s things about her she doesn’t know yet and heads up to her room. King Tony arrives with lollipop in mouth and cheerfully tells everyone he is home. He notices the tension in the house and that Alicia looks quite upset. He sits down beside her and asks her what’s wrong. She tells him about the angry hat man. And if Ricky hadn’t been there she thinks he would have killed Marisol. Tony looks quite concerned.

Marisol enters her room and is soon surprised by said angry hat man who grabs her and holds a knife to her neck telling her if she screams he will kill her. (Holy double spit!!)



Dan and Leo are having drinks by the pool as Leo tells him Eva’s name. Dan still can’t believe that he brought Eva to the house. Leo tells him that since she rejected him before he finds her challenging. She has a strong character and he really like that. Dan wants to know what he is going to do with her there. Leo answers “What do you think?” Dan tells him to be careful. She needs this job and furthermore she seems like a decent girl.

Marcel has entered the party and angrily asks Leo since when does he bring some unknown to the house without her permission first. Leo is to his feet as he tells her he was going to talk to her first thing. She tells him it is to late cuz’ she just fired her. Dan telling Marcella he doesn’t want to meddle, pleads with her not to fire Eva. This is met with a strong look from Leo.

Marcella is surprised that Dan is defending her. He doesn’t think it is just for her to fire Eva. Dan continues his pleading and tells her that when he talked with Eva in the kitchen she told him she really needed this job. He was moved by her words. Marcella than asks him what he wanted to talk to her about in the first place. He starts talking shop and Marcella shaking her head tells him this isn’t the place to talk business and they will discuss it at the office.

Now she’s back on Leo’s case and wants to know why he would hire Eva without talking to her first. Leo goes over to her and pours on the charm. Marcella is not impressed and tells him to stop playing the clown and answer her. She scolds him reminding him she has asked him to keep his skirt chasing away from the house. Leo calms her down and tells her Eva has nothing to do with his skirt chasing affairs. He tells her she is wrong. He felt sorry for Eva and all he wants to do is help her. Marcella asks who told him this was a house of benefactors. She grabs him by the ear and wants to know if he thinks his pity will result in her going to bed with him.




We find out hat guy has a name. It is Damian. He still has Marisol in a choke hold with the knife to her throat. He doesn’t like the fact that she is holding out on him. She denies this, but Damien isn’t convinced.
How else could she afford such an expensive flat screen TV. (scary dude)

Renata is filling in Claudia and Vicky on the latest house gossip. She tells Vicky that her mother was really upset when she found out that Leo hired Eva. Vicky seems more concerned because she is pretty. Renata disagrees with that and says she is just a plain looking girl. The girls agree that they both have to watch out for their men with Eva around. Renata reminds Vicky that she had nothing to do with hiring Eva. It was Leo that brought her to the house and hired her. This does not sit well with Claudia as she perks her ears and says “What?” Renata tells her she has nothing to worry about because Marcela fired her.

Leo is still trying to convince Marcella not to fire Eva. After all she is not his type. He asks her if he could imagine her son with such a common women? Dan is listening in to all this baloney. Leo continues that Julio needs someone to look after him and Eva fills that bill. Subject closed. He tells her to give her one month and if she isn’t happy with her (Or has her killed first) he will fire her himself. Marcella finally agrees to just one month.

Tony is making the big come on to Alicia. She tells him she can’t go out with him because Eva would kill her if she found out.

Damian is still holding the knife to Marisol, and still threatening her. He tells her the TV she bought was with his money. She denies this and he tells her he doesn’t believe her. He slashes the TV with his knife and tells her the next time she holds back money from him it will be her face as he holds the knife to her face.

Damian is leaving the house via the court yard where Alicia and Tony are hanging out. Alicia sees him and tells Tony that was the guy that was looking for Marisol. Tony says “That’s strange. That guy told me he was just looking for a room. That’s why I let him in.” Alicia rushes off to check on Marisol.



Marisol is hovering on her bed when Alicia rushes to her to ask her if she is okay. Tony rushes in and asks her who the guy was. Marisol tells them it was an ex-boyfriend. Alicia notices the broken TV and wants to call the police. Marisol pleads with her not to. If the police show up he will kill her.

Eva is in the kitchen and Renata comes in chirping, she knew she wouldn’t last long. She knew once she met Marcella she would get fired. Eva now mad as a wet hornet turns to Renata and says she knew Marcella would be upset when she saw her and that’s why she gave her all the bad advice about not knocking on the door. Renata proud of herself, tells Eva it doesn’t matter now and tells her to get out. She is stopped by Marcela who tells her she needs to talk to her.

More poolside chat as Leo informs Vicky and Claudia that Eva gets to stay. This is not met with cheers and applause. Renata is getting the same news and she is not applauding either as she questions Marcella. Marcella tells her Eva stays and that it will be her job to orient her to her new position. Marcella tells Eva the most important part of her job will be to make sure Julio gets his medicine and not to miss one single dose. Marcella begs her leave and tells everyone she has had a tough day.

She reminds Eva this is just a test run. If she makes one mistake she is gone. Eva tells her not to worry and tries to thank her as heartless Marcela walks away. Eva turns triumphantly to smile at Renata.




Vicky sitting close to Dan, tells them it is time to change the subject. They don’t have to keep talking about the new girl. After all she knows Dan only has eyes for her. Leo agrees with this and tells Dan as well that he only has eyes for his sister. Subject being changed, Vicky wants to celebrate that her brother and Claudia are back together. Dan tries to beg off telling her he is busy. Vicky isn’t letting him off so easy and says it will be an early night. The girls are off to make themselves beautiful and Dan and Leo are left alone.

Dan gets up to leave as well but is stopped by Leo. He wants to make a bet with him. (Is that on any ones bingo card?) Dan isn’t into to this but reluctantly asks what the bet is about this time. Leo tells him that he will bet $500 that within two months He will get Eva to sleep with him. Dan walks away in disgust as Leo dogs him to bet with him.

Tony now trying to cheer Alicia up invites her to tour Hollywood. Alicia is delighted with this and rewards him with a big hug. More on this later.

We are back to Dan and Leo. Leo tells Dan that the reason he doesn’t want to bet is because he is scared that the sweet girl will fall for him and that he will loose the bet. Dan tells him he just doesn’t want to bet with him. Besides he doesn’t think Eva will fall for his tricks. Leo assures him that she will eventually come around. Dan shaking his head in disgust tells him he will see him later tonight and leaves. Leo is left saying to no one in particular with a smug look on his face. “Bet or no bet, I always win. Eva will eventually fall for me.”

We get a little tour of Beverly hills courtesy of Tony and Alicia. They end up in a book store and Alicia is ranting about all the great magazines. Tony being ever the suave young suitor tells her he will buy her one. After all he has credit at this store. We see them leaving the store with him hiding the magazine behind his back leaving us to wonder if he maybe he did steal her money.





We see that it has become night time and Leo is telling Eva that he had to beg his mother not to fire her. She graciously thanks him. He asks her if she lives with her parents. She tells him her mother left when she was little and her father was killed. Leo expresses his sympathy and wants to know what happened.

Eva tells him that she really doesn’t want to talk about her papa right now. It still hurts to think about him. Leo tells her he understands. He didn’t intent to make her feel bad. He knows what it is like to loose a father. His father died when he was 8 years old. Than his mom met Julio and he treated him like a son.
Now that Julio is sick, he is certain that she is the perfect person to take care of him. Eva smiling tells him thanks and that he won’t regret giving her this chance. He tells her she can count on him for any thing she might need.

Alicia and Tony are still out on the town. They are at a restaurant and Tony suggests tequila. I think they settle for milkshakes or beer. I am not certain. And I don’t care.

We have a little scene with Justa arranging the flowers that Ricky brought her. She is lamenting that she can’t give him the affection that he deserves. (I am sure we will learn more about that sad story. Next)

We see Victoria standing in front of a mirror admiring herself. (Not even picture worthy)

Dan is tucking in little Laurita reading her a story. (I think that his her name.) She wants another story. And guilts him about leaving. She tells him he always has to go out with Vicky. He reminds her that Vicky is his girlfriend kissing her on top of her head and tells her to go to sleep. She asks if he is going to marry Vicky. Laurita goes on again about the woman in her picture and wants that woman to be her mother. Dan explains that she needs a real mother and sweetly tells her he will stay with her until she falls asleep.

Some more torment by the evil maid as Eva is finishing her first day. Eva asks about the dog. She admits that the dog scares her. She wants to know if it bites. Renata tells her it depends. So far he hasn’t bitten anyone. but he is there to protect Julio. She goes on to say if she is frightened by the dog she can still quit. She would be doing them both a big favor as she leans in to tell her this. More rules are laid down and Renata snidely tells her that servants must always use the back door. Eva quips back “The same door you use.” This does nothing to endear Eva to her and Renata snips back she will pay for that remark.

Tony and Alicia are finishing up their drinks. The check arrives and as Tony reaches his back pocket he comes up empty handed and tells Alicia that he doesn’t have any money to pay the bill.

Vicky has become impatient and calls Dan’s house to see if he has left yet. Jacky assures him he has left. He had to spend a little longer time to settle Laurita. Vicky is not pleased with this as she throws her phone down cursing the little girl for interfering with her plans. She tells herself she has to do something about her so that she can finally marry Dan.

Our final scene is of Eva walking out the back door. We see the evil Renata with the scary looking dog going out another door. Max (the dog’s name I believe) seems a bit twitchy and Renata figures out he has just spied Eva walking across the lawn. She gets a evil grimace and sicks the dog on an unsuspecting Eva.

A panicked Eva sees Mad Max tearing a path straight towards her and runs off in a panic. She is able to escape and gets on the other side of the fence. Still panicked she walks off backwards and falls right in front of a car. The driver stops suddenly and quickly gets out. It happens to be Dan. He quickly goes to attend to her She tells him the dog really frightened her. He swears to her that he just barely saw her running away from the house. Dan gently brushes her forehead and sweetly tells her to calm down. Longing glances are exchanged and there we end.
