Caray, Caray!

• Eleazar is going to invest his life savings in helping Carmen out. They are going to become business partners. They throw in some smoochies for good measure...but don't think they are officially off the ground yet. Be sure to see the scene where Abdul interrupts Eleazar's profession of love. Cynthia and Marcelo are masterful. Holy crap I love watching these two consummate actors.
• Rodrigo is awake and despite a few flubs, he's passing himself off as Diego (albeit a Diego that is behaving oddly.) And he's going to be wreaking havoc. He plans to empty Diego's bank accounts and take Natalia's virginity. While he waits for Nat, he'll be getting his nookie from Brigitte and Irma.
• Speaking of Irma, she warns Rod that there are grave consequences to keeping Diego in a coma too long. One of which is permanent amnesia. Rod doesn't give hoot. He figures that will even things up after losing two years of his life. Irma has to give Diego an extra dose since the drug doesn't seem to keep Diego in a very deep coma. Rod wants her to do something and he'll pay her well for it. He tells her to open and account so he can make the transfer. This is the second time a character has had to open an account. Chato took Lupita to a bank. I bet a bank is the product placement.
• "Diego" tries to convince Vicente to pull the plug on "Rodrigo." Vicente doesn't want to. Thank heaven.

• Paolo gets fired from Burger Rex after an altercation with some terribly rude customers. They trip him and say bleepable things. Paolo fights back. I hate to assume, but thanks to editing I have to assume this causes some sketchy behavior at home. I assume while he looks for a new job, he doesn't say anything about being fired and his odd behavior causes Eleazar to invite him and Abdul out for a night on the town. Carmen is not happy about that and when they get home she is mad. Padre Juancho makes a hasty exit and Eleazar asks begs him not to leave him alone with an angry Carmen. I assume that while they are out, a lady friend comes on strong. I assume that Paolo rejects her advances. I know for sure that Paolo has been keeping his relationship with Mara under wraps which is why Eleazar concludes that Paolo is gay and tells Carmen this.
• Tadeo asks Irene to go back to Mexico. They have a sweet conversation. She tells him he taught her so much about art and seeing art everywhere. He wishes he had taken her to Paris with him.
• Brigitte and Karina are besties. They gossip about Alonso's relationship with the "ancient" Irene. Brigitte encourages Karina to keep working on Alonso. Karina goes to Alonso's and is promptly kicked to the curb. Seriously, he can't make it any more clear that he is NOT interested. She's making Nepo look like a genius. She pretends to fall down the stairs and fakes a head injury and manages to convince a highly reluctant Alonso to let her stay the night on the couch. When she thinks he's asleep she tries to sneak into his bedroom, but he locked the door. HA! The next morning while Alonso showers, Irene has arrived from New York rings Alonso's doorbell. Karina answers the door looking muy sexy and Irene jumps to the completely wrong conclusion. Karina calls and reports these developments to Brigitte. When Irene arrives at Caprico/Eskenda Brigitte makes sure Irene overhears her telling Karina not to tell her such personal things and that Alonso must be quite the lover."
• Rod makes Natalia feel like crap for not putting out. He tells her not to complain when he goes looking for what he needs with someone else. Natalia feels more and more guilty and according to the avances, she's going to cave.
• Andres is heading back to Tuxpan. Rod still thinks Diego was the one who put him in the coma. With Andres far away, there's no chance of Rod running into him and having his memory jogged. Yay. -_-
• Alberto makes up with "Diego". "Diego" makes some comment that Alberto says only Rod would say.
• Angela gives Natalia another card reading. Diego is in dire trouble. It's like there is really bad mojo surrounding him. Natalia thinks he's been a little odd, but things aren't as serious as that. Even Angela is confused and thinks it's almost as if she were reading the cards of a past life since the cards don't match the present happenings.
• The episode ends with Natalia agreeing to sleep with "Diego." He tries to get busy right there in the office. Natalia agrees to see him later that night.
