Caray, Caray!

* Winter garden. Lili explains to Guzmáncito that she isn’t an intruder but Arriaga’s daughter, and she only sneaked into the flower room because she’s really, really into plants. I mean, really. At first Francisco is immune to her Disney charm and he coldly reminds her of the fact that she isn’t allowed to wander around the house without permission. Liliana gets frightened at his strict tone and she apologizes, and her reaction is so over the top that Blondie can’t help but bursts into laugh. They shake hands.

* Kitchen. Sweetheart Angel feels with Victoria who’s at the verge of a nervous breakdown: Liliana is his greatest treasure and he doesn’t know what he would do if something happened to her. And he even understands her struggles with Nikki (who has a very difficult personality) and her husband (who’s a negligent and lousy father). Vic is overflowed with feelings, she’s glad that she can talk about these things with the big guy but in the meantime she feels ashamed that she threw her problems onto him. And she used to think she was strong but now she can’t take anymore. Vic grabs his hand and it looks they are about to hug each other, and OF COURSE this is the very moment when Cristina enters the room. Qué the hell is happening here?


* Nikki has a video chat with the brunette friend of hers. (I wish my phone was able to produce such a great quality. *cough*) In the evening there will be a party, Nicole should go and bring her hot bodyguard along. Oh, don’t even get her started with Guzmán! She’s fed up with him and with her mother who thinks she’s an infant who needs a babysitter. But okay, she’ll try to escape from the gorilla and join the party later.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

* Victoria, who’s still sobbing, tells Cristina that all José Ángel did was giving her comfort because she had an awful day. She thanks Arriaga and says goodbye to them. Ay, that poor woman, says Angel who’s totally oblivious to the green flames of jealousy in Cristina’s eyes that have been firing at him since the beginning of the scene. And the hell breaks loose. Cristina is sure that Victoria wants more from her husband than his bodyguard services and she won’t stay in her house for a minute longer! José Ángel gets pissed off, too, so he grabs her elbow and tells her there’s nothing between him and Ms. Balvanera… and now they should go to sleep. After they leave, it turns out Polita and Jean Marie were hiding in the corner and they heard the shouts. This means soon the whole household will know what happened that evening.

* In the bedroom Nelson works on his computer, it turns out he asked Kendra to do the yoghurt commercial. Kendra. And yoghurt. Vic doesn’t like the idea and she doubts that Barbie’s image would be right for the commercial. Did Aníbal approve this decision? Nelson is too much in love with his own genius and he thinks the company should follow a more innovative path.

* At Kendra’s flat. Barbie and Salsero talk about their masterplan, again. Kendra mentions she could easily convince Nelson to leave his wife for her, but Dances With Sunglasses isn’t fond of the idea. Okay honey, says Kendra, as you wish. But make sure Arriaga doesn’t return to his lil’ house on the pampas… because if he does, things will be done her way. Sometimes I can’t decide who’s the bigger alpha male between these two.

* Arriaga looks for his daughter in the garden. He’s in quite a bad shape, he seems to have a constant ache in the chest. Lili’s still in the flower room/winter garden and she does her best to turn the enchanted Guzmáncito into a Disney cartoon character. Oh dear, now they’re sniffing a pink flower. Arriaga shows up at the door and interrupts the magical moment just a second before a dimension portal opened to the World of My Little Pony. Daddy doesn’t like what he sees, so he pulls a bitchface, sends Lili to bed and Guzmán tomorrow he’ll return to his house. This means they probably won’t meet again, however, if Francisco ever decides to visit the Arriagas he’ll be welcome. The hawt guys hug each other. *Women in Viewerville: awwww, bromance!*


* Later in the house Dances With Sunglasses tells José Ángel he should reconsider his resignation because Ms. Victoria trusts him deeply and no one else who could protect her better. Sorry, says Arriaga, it was a really a hard decision for Arriaga, but he has to put his family first.

* In the kitchen Jean Marie and Polita talk about the fight Cristina and José Ángel had last night. Actually, Polita think Cristina caught her husband and Victoria doing the deed on the table. Tomasina comes into the room with Guzmán. She’s very worried for Victoria so Blondie promises her to find a new trustworthy bodyguard.

* In the Arriagas’ bedroom Lili asks José Ángel about Francisco and she can’t stop gushing about his gorgeous smile. But don’t worry, dad, your smile is beautiful, too. *Viewerville: all right, Liliana, everything is forgiven for now*


* Nelson can’t understand why Victoria is so sad about Arriaga’s resignation. Don’t worry, tomorrow he’ll find her a more experienced bodyguard. Victoria cuddles up to her husband and whispers that after a hard day like that she needs some affection. But our Casanova suddenly turns into a prudent little virgin and tells her they should sleep instead.


* Nikki spent the whole episode with taking a shower and dressing up like the newest disco Barbie and now she’s ready to leave. She climbs down on a rope from her balcony… and arrives right into the arms of the ever vigilant Francisco. *Viewerville: LOL* Guzmán won’t let her leave and he threatens her with waking Victoria up. Nikki has no choice but to go back to her room… and Francisco follows her because he wants to make sure she won’t escape again. In her room he laughs at the good old “pillows under blanket” trick and mocks Nikki for her lack of imagination. Oh dear, Guzmáncito is slowly turning into an adorably insolent modern Petruchio. Best scene of the episode, hands down. Finally she manages to kick him out of the room… and here comes the ugly part. Nikki can’t deal with the stress of this situation so first she quickly eats a box of chocolate, then she cries in a fetal position.


* Next morning. While Dances With Sunglasses is waiting for his jefe, he’s fuming about his bad luck: dammit, that dumb Arriaga ruined all his plans and now Guzmán will bring a new bodyguard!

 * Victoria tells Tomasina that Nelson promised her a surprise. But since Narcissus isn’t that giving person unless his wife has a birthday, Victoria suspects it has something to do with the company. And she doesn’t like it at all. She worked her ass off to convince her father to give her the position of creative director, and won’t step aside to please her husband. And on top of it all, now he has to deal with the new bodyguard. She sighs and thinks about how much she’ll miss Arriaga.

*Guzmáncito and Liliana meet in the hallway. Disney Girl informs Blondie that Cristina went to buy something, the Angel is still knocked out by the medicines the doctor gave him and Lili couldn’t take a shower because the water in their bathroom is blocked. Francisco offers her to use the bodyguards’ bathroom.

* Tomasina comes into Nikki’s room to pick up her laundry and she finds the remnants of the evening: the mess, the trash and the empty box of chocolate. She tells the sleepy and yawning girl she understands that Nikki is a very impulsive and reckless kid but she should be more careful of what she does. What are you talking about, asks Nikki. I’m talking about what you did last night! Oops. Nikki has no idea that Tomasina is talking about the chocolate and the mess she made, so she immediately jumps to the conclusion Guzmán spilled the beans about her escape. That idiot! She runs out of the room screaming that he will pay for *that*… Leaving a very dumbfounded Tomasina behind. “What idiot?”


* The shrew runs into Francisco’s room looking for a fight… only to find the freshly showered Liliana there. What. Happened. Here? Oh Guzmáncito, you’re in the deepest trouble because you are forbidden to bring your lovers into this house. Thank you, gorilla, you put the rope around your own neck! You’re fired!

 * Cristina arrives back from the shop and finds an unconscious, fevered, trembling Angel in the bed. She runs to the dining room where Tomasina tells Victoria about the fight Arriaga and his wife had last night because of her. Oh no, that cannot be possible! Victoria looks very uncomfortable and she becomes even more upset when Cristina shows up screaming and begging for help for her half-dead husband.

* Nikki enjoys the situation immensely. She’s about to go and tell her mom what happened when Guzmán tells her that this half-naked girl isn’t his girlfriend and she was brought into the house by Arriaga, her father.

* Tomasina and Cristina leave for the doctor and Victoria stays behind to look after sick man. Arriaga wakes up for a second and before he falls back into unconsciousness he desperately begs her not to leave.
