Caray, Caray!

Capitulo 121.

Read Chapel Hill Fiddler’s original recap, then come back here to discuss it.

1. Omar Chaparro and Toño hear Fernando’s excuses to Marcia on the phone, and Omar says, “Enjoy the game and enjoy your forbidden love.” He asks them to kiss, just like he did at Megatron. Back in the park, they discuss Alicia. Fern doesn’t like that she’s Marcia’s spy, and Lety doesn’t like how she treats the cuartel, but Fernando won’t fire her because that would create problems with Marcia.

2. Fernando and Lety spend some more face-to-face time (those kisses just keep getting better), and Omar spots them. Omar calls Fern and tells him in German that he sees them. Lety makes a run for it and thinks Fernando is behind her. Lety gets lost and she can’t remember the hotel name.

3. Erasmo worries that something will happen to Lety, and Julieta says she’ll be fine because she’s with Fernando. Mama distracts Pop, dreaming about the day Lety gets married (he doesn’t like that) and they have grandchildren (he likes that). Pop just wants her to find a man who loves and respects her.

4. See the transcript. Fernando summons Omar for help because Lety is lost. Their conversation reveals a lot about Omar – he’s not at all worried about Lety, but he IS worried that Fernando might care for her. As usual, Fern asks Omar what to do. As usual, Omar gives idiotic advice. But what’s different is that Fernando completely rejects Omar’s advice and walks away. Omar’s best friend just snapped his collar, and Omar is left holding an empty leash.



.
5. See the transcript. Lety cries herself to sleep in the train station. Fernando doesn’t find her all night, but in the morning he thinks to check the train station and finds her. They hang onto each other tightly as they walk. Lety asks, “Did you really worry that much about me?” Fernando almost says he loves her, but he can’t spit it out, so Lety finishes for him. Oh my, what a kiss!


6. The next scene says it’s in Hannover, but we see the Marienplatz and Frauenkirche of Munich. Then Fern and Lety are among actual Mexican fans heading to the match. Except, the game we see is not Mexico vs. Angola, since Angola wore red that day. The actual game was scoreless.

7. Fernando and Lety appear in the stadium shots of the TV broadcast, but always when no one’s looking. Alicia goes to Le Noir to snag a rico. She shakes her assets but the men tell her to move so they can see the TV.

Capitulo 122.
Read Julie’s original recap, then come back here to discuss it.

1. Fernando and Lety say goodbye to Germany in front of the Siegestor (Munich’s triumphal arch).

2. Lety sadly narrates the intro to the house-hunting DVD. Meanwhile Fernando edits the commercial, and he reluctantly calls Luigi for advice. Fern sees Lety in Editing and asks what’s up. He accidently ends up with her unedited DVD, the one in which Matilde gushes about Tomás and Lety's happily ever after. The technician tries to steal a kiss from Lety because he thinks she’s fea but very nice, but he’s about as smooth as a drunken walrus.

3. An attorney calls Alicia about the repo of her car, but Ali claims that Ali’s not in. Paula wants the cuartel to go to see “Solo para mujeres,” a beefcake strip show.

4. They screen the horse commercial and the clients love it. Fernando tells the cuartel that he wants to go somewhere with just Lety and their love, but it was Lety’s fantasy.

5. In his office Fernando manages to stammer that he missed Lety when she was down in editing, and he asks her to escape with him. He has a lot of trouble expressing his feelings.

Spanish Lesson

Omar's Advice.
F: What do I do, Brother? Where do I look for her? You’ve been in this city longer than me. Where do tourists go?
O: The city is enormous, but probably nothing will happen. Besides, with her ugliness.. (Fernando stops him) with her attributes, I’m sure no one would dare do anything. So why don’t you just calm down? Order some snaps [sic].
F: No! I don’t want schnapps. I want to find Lety.
O: Fernando, now you’re worrying me. I believe that there’s something more here, that there’s love.
(Omar’s not joking this time. And this time, Fernando doesn’t even pretend that Omar’s wrong.)
F: Where did she go? Where did she go? Worse yet, where will she spend the night?
O: What are you so worried about? (Somebody smack the imbecile!) The worst that can happen is that she’ll meet you at the airport. I imagine she knows when your flight leaves.
F: You know what I’m going to do, Mr. Comedian? I’m going to get a taxi and search the city until I find her! Problem solved. You don’t have to do anything.
O: Fernando, I think you’re overreacting a little.
F: No, I’m not overreacting. I’m worried about Lety. I don’t want ANYTHING to happen to her.

At the train station.
F: Well, now we’re together
L: Ay, sí, DF. When I was lost, I felt desperate, alone, far from home, everyone spoke German!
F: Well, we’re in Germany. What else would they speak?
L: But what scared me most was to be far from you.
F: Ay, Lety, I would’ve died. If I didn’t find you, I swear I would’ve died. It’s true. I felt powerless, useless. With you all alone, who knows where.
L: Did you really worry that much about me, Don Fernando?
F: You have no idea how much. And do you know why? In moments like these, is when.. one realizes.. (He almost admits that he loves her, but he can’t spit it out.)
L: (she finishes for him.) .. when one realizes how much one quiere another?
F: Sí, Lety. (Even bigger kiss.)
