Caray, Caray!

Hi guys! This is my first time watching this show, so please forgive any mistakes I've made!

We open on Wilma and Alejo - Alejo gloats about how his son loves luxury (just like his dad) and will be easily won. Wilma favors a legal battle, but Alejo prefers his current plan.

Lupita attempts to convince MA that she wasn't involved in the hair pulling fight. She wasn't even there. Alibi - she's been with Alejo! He doesn't love that..

Money launderer guy (Adolfo) has made a nice dinner for Vilma. Alejo imperiously demands that Vilma bring him wine. Adolfo helps in a very friendly hands-on way, and Alejo snaps a pic with an evil look on his face and hiding his phone sneakily.

Flashback/dream for the kid of the amazing rich-kid room he'll have with his Dad. He shows off the expensive school photos to tizoc, with some easy commentary on the difference b/w rich and poor. How swiftly the boy has decided to be spoiled and obnoxious.



The king counsels his daughter re: money/what alejo offers her kid. He says the love of the mother is worth more than anything in the world. Blah blah blah, love of a monther will be worth more than Alejo's nicknacks, the cliches rain down.

Adolfo needs documents to get out of country and escape the "talons" of the cops. Alejo is skeptical, acts haughty. Adolfo reminds him that if he falls he'll take the other man with him.

Bilma has a solution. -Zip 'em up boys! Adolfo isn't ready to put it away yet - he has an incriminating recording for blackmail.

Lupitaa fixes her hair. Her family is shouting from outside the bathroom - everyone wants something. She frets about debts and bills.

MA seems to be washing clothes on the back porch. Wendy comes to poke fun of "her Mike."

Tomas the young lawyere calls MA. He has words that must be spoken in private. He comes over to Guendy's to tell MA about his hacker Guato who might be able to find some evidence about the big fraud, you know, bank deposits and stuff. Now Tomas wants to show MA how to wash clothes and gets really into it!!! Dominate the pants, he says! But you know, there's a laundromat around the corner.

Saul and Wilma have a scene. She's trying to get some information out of him, but he won't tell her what he's up to with his fancy client, and he gives a little speech about how the two of them are both like little slaves, running around on errands.

In the halls of the Banana King: Trofeo has a gun and wants to shoot Lupita's new man. Guendy catches him scheming with the gun!

MA here's some of Tomas'' particularly colorful slang ("granny, i'm your grandson") and charmingly tells Tomas "I just don't understand you."

Back to the lawyers. She's a modern woman, enjoys her solitude. He wonders why she's defending a jerk like Alejo. She wonder's why he's working for a jerk like Minerva . He reveals that his client only got married w/ regards to the will and a scheme for money. He reiterates what a jerk alejo is, she is cute and spunky and wonders how he could be so naive about the job.

Guendy takes trofeo's henchman by the air and gives the both of them a stern talking-to about being stupid. "if you kill him, you think she's coming back to you?" If she's not for me, no one can have her."you used to be better"

Trofeo is not remotely moved.

Frida complains about the fat in traditional Mexican. Lupita and Carmelita look on incredulously. This food is about Mexico and it made me strong. Lupita is the voice of PSA today. We get a few minutes of basic health information in a stupid conversation.

MA asks the banana king for money, then we go back and the psa is still going on.

Ana Sofia drops in to try to make sure everyone goes to her sneakky manners classes. Everyone has an excuse. Frida suggests they put it off for the duration of a few reincarnations.


Emiliano's school - the kids are making fun of him for his bad shoes. "you play better with good shoes."

Alejo is pissed - it looks like Minerva might get chosen as the new directora! That blonde, pallid cockroach... he gets a call from the kid and unctuously offers him anything he wants. Vilma admires his acting.

King of Sumatra wants his family to take the classes, no more excuses. They are not confused. Leo barely manages to shut Frida up before she spills the beans about thhe plan to make the family serve at the wedding.

Mike is not impressed with the juice stand. If you do it too fast, it's no good. Trofeo (henchman) comments that his ex told him the same thing.

Mannerrs classes are a little lame but goofy. "Only Mariachis and footballers hug like that." "who needs knives and forks, all you need is a tortilla to scoop."

Nepo/Trofeo will follow Lupita to find the guy.



Wilma gives Alejo a backrub and is clearly into him.

Mike also wants to visit Emiliano at school, and he spies Alejo there. He wonders if Lupita knows.

During the school visit, Alejo amiably listens to his son and attempts to bribe him with promises of riches that "always should have been his."

Tomas consults with Lupita about the papers and Emiliano - he reminds her that if they go througgh with it Alejo will have to play child support. She thinks she wants nothing from him.

Tomas and Peerla flirt, but Chuy shows up to threaten Tomas a little and tell his daughter to do her homework.
