Que pobres tan ricos, 114, 13 June 2014... the trip begins... and as expected, AS had packed her complaint recorder... but everyone else is up for the vacation. Nepo tries to 'cure' DA.
MA apologizes for the trouble AND for forgetting the febreze. Chuy rants at him. Lupe rants at CHuy and everyone bickers in response.
At Editorial offices, A-hole still arguing with cop that MA is NOT innocent, the cop repeats that the first shot did not come from the gun that has MA’s prints on it. A-hole gets louder and argues again that MA was teamed up with Bambi and they killed Adolfo, Ahole insists the cop should be scanning every inch of La Nopalera.
In the bus, no one is moving yet, they are still arguing whether to take MA along or leave him behind. Carm backs up Lupita, it is not Christian act to abandon someone in need. Chuy says its been a lot of need after need in MA’s case. Chuy mentions something that happened to DA, and Perla insists in hearing what’s up with DA. Chuy changes subject back to wanting MA gone, everyone bickers again.
Nepo has his ‘talk’ with DA. Nepo sure that DA is ‘todo un machin’. DA tries to say something but Nepo won’t let him. DA never asked the three wise men for dolls or makeup or anything girly… Nepo sure DA is stuffed with Nepo’s ‘machote’ genes. Maybe all this is my fault, says Nepo, for having pushed you to have the life I wanted you to live. But don’t worry. I have a surprise for you later.
Back to the bus. MA has to blow a whistle, (where did he get it?) MA says I should go. Lupe won’t let him, grabs him. Lupe tells her family that the only road for MA is the road to the jail, if they don’t give him a hand. Chuy gives in. reluctantly. MA is grateful, promises never to cause trouble again.
They are all fanning the ‘odor’ while MA is eating something. Carm is working out her arm with that little paper fan. AS wants to rant at MA, but Leo ends up mocking her, since she is the one that usually is lamenting and whining.
Mini and her mom, back in her bed… Mini is again whining as a rich spoiled brat she is… she had MA and the ungrateful jerk escaped. Isela says you can have any men you want. You are so beautiful and now you will be richy rich. Mini does not want any other man, she only wants MA. She has to find the way to get him back.
MA gives the USB to Tomas. MA asks him to team up with Saul to see if they can find the way out together. Tomas says go ahead and get away for a while, things are a bit tight right now. Again MA thanks Don Chuy. Don Chuy says, thinking it over, I bet you would do the same (for me). MA asks him to come close to his warmth (acerquese a mi calor!)… Finally Tizoc puts that bus in motion…
Ahole and Vilma have been knocking for 12 hrs, according to his bickering. Vilma is trying to get a way in. Ahole is again yelling at her and at Beto. Vilma asks a neighbor, she says surely they went on vacation. Ahole is ready to beat up Vilma. Vilma says wait, think about it. We can use the opportunity to search in there for evidence to take the property away from them.
MA is complimenting the food for Lupe and Carmelita.I think he mentioned that not even in Europe he ate Milanesas more delicious than these. Lupe says when you’re hungry everything is wonderful. MA tells Lupe all he needs now is a bath so she won’t have to see him or smell him like that. She kept on stressing the fact that he stinks, which he put deer in the headlights eyes for her…
Nepo and Trofeo are going over the numbers of the juice sales. He is about to compliment MA on the idea but stops and takes over the idea as if it was his. Nepo mentions that he wants to finish the number crunching so he can go on vacation somewhere… Trofeo gives MA the credit for the juice marketing and Nepo rants at him.
Ahole and Vilma are still discussing the idea of going in the house..Ahole wants to wait. Something about doing it legally (since when did that stop him?) But he pulls rank to make the final call and they leave (or did they?)…
Trofeo insists to Nepo that MA should get the credit for the idea… by the way, he saw Lupe getting in the Micro (the bus they left in looks like a mini coin bus). He says he thinks he also saw xxx get in the bus, but he does not mention MA by name. Nepo says you don’t remember cause you never finished basic elementary school.
AS is impatient to get there… porca miseria, it did not take this long to even get to New York! Leo also complaints aobut the ‘AC’. Tizoc and CHuy also discuss what they will do with MA. Seems like the cops stopped the bus. Lupe immediately asks MA to hide among the boxes/suitcases. He asks Lupe for another torta/sandwich.
Saul and Tomas are discussing their next move in Saul’s office. Tomas can’t follow Saul’s jargon. Saul asks Tomas if he is sure they can trust the hacker Tomas is giving the USB to… some guy Wilson. Tomas gets hungry. Seems Saul is treating him.
Chuy is entertaining the cops outside the bus… HE tells the cops about his days as Hijo de Sumatra. Frida argues with Perla that this ‘search’ is an abuse of authority. Perla asks her to chill out dos rayitas. The cops are ready to get in the bus to search, but Lupe tells them that there is a boy and an elderly person there. As the cops are ready to get in anyway, Chuy jumps to block the door of the bus.
There is some disco named Aphrodita, Nepo has taken Trofeo and DA to it. Nepo says now you will surely turn into a ‘hombrecito’. You gotta mingle with the young ladies. DA is not enjoying this ‘outing’.
The cops point their guns at Chuy. MA peeks out of the boxes, Emiliano pushes him back in. As the cops are about to push Chuy out of the way, Lupe fakes fainting(in the best tradition of the beginning of any episode of House ) and the whole group (both Menchacas and RPs outside the bus) go beserk. Chuy yells at the cops ‘see what you did??!’ The cops start yelling at them ‘go ahead and leave then!!’ (Chuy does not wait for them to have to say it again, he shoves everyone in the bus!) After a little ride closeby, they all stop and make sure the cops bit the trick. Leo leads as they all congratulate Lupe on the acting. Lupe explains to Emiliano that sometimes you find yourself in situations where you have to lie.
Back to Aphrodita. NEpo gets two girls to come sit with them. The girls get their hands all over DA. Nepo tells them he is the Brad Pitt of La Nopalera. Nepo could sell banana peels if he needed to. Poor DA is totally lost.
AS asks for them to stop the bus. Chuy gets the bus stopped, AS whines that they have to ‘go potty’ out in the woods. Frida and Perla walk away to possibly do the same, but Frida can’t get going. Even when Perla tells her she will bring her some paper from the bus. AS keeps nagging that it is the collapse of civilization. Mati tells her you know what? I never thought I would say this but you are not such a bad mom. Frida complains that something bit her in the rear. Perla tells her it was ‘jacate’ (grass?) what she felt.
Back to Aphrodita. One of the girls, Karisma, insists with DA. He says he is just not in the mood. Nepo is giving the other girl more money to give DA some extra time treatment. She gets busy. She even tells DA some secret of hers that blows him away. ‘Is that legal??’
Back to the bus trip… they are all singing ‘El Rey’ all together. Even AS gets a solo part. Everyone, even CHuy is singing. They all are having some fun, like a family they are becoming… nice to see.
Mini is on phone, asking Saul if he knows where MA is. He asks her if she has the laptop. Bring it to me. Mini says the only one she will give the laptop is MA. Saul says ok don’t bring it to me if you don’t want. But MA won’t fall again for another of your tricks.
They are in Acapulco… very crowded beach, if you ask me. Lots of food, boats, traffic, but all in all it looks great. The bus stops right on the beach shore…(how do you get that camping spot??) Chuy yells ‘we’re here!!’ Leo complains, this is no hotel, this is the beach!!’ Chuy says we arrived at our usual place, the ‘caleta’!! AS asks weren’t we going to stay at a hotel?? Chuy says nope, we will sleep right here. Carmelita says I did not come to bicker, I came to enjoy the beach!! MA is all for it. AS nags and nags. CHuy says we have a choice from two soups… OPTION A nag and nag and nag until we run out of breath… OPTION B… lets settle here! MA votes for settling.
At Aphrodita, DA has had enough, tells the girl good nite, then Nepo runs to grab him… DA tells Nepo really, had enough. I will see you. Nepo wants Trofeo to go stop him. Trofeo tells him, honestly, DA has been like that for ever. Nepo is not giving up. He will beat it out of him if he has to. Nepo drags Trofeo out of there before he gets a chance to keep partying with the girls.
And in a flash they have turned that ‘caleta’ into their private beach resort, complete with chairs, unbrellas, etc etc. AS, Leo are shocked… are we really going to sleep inside the microbus?? We are not dwarfs or ‘60’s hippies… Perla announces that she already got the deal with the lady who usually rents them the bathroom for their showers. AS keeps nagging. She asks Leo to think of something. Leo has given in to the ‘arrangements’ and tells her to take it as a ‘sacrifice to our Lord’. MA says he has to take a shower IMMEDIATELY. Chuy tells him ‘come with me’. Tizoc starts a cheer ‘we are at the beach now!’ Mati says I had not been at the beach in a long time, look at that!! Looks beautiful!! Frida suggests to AS and Leo to have fun with it. AS still refuses. Tizoc and Emiliano start singing ‘we are at the beach!’ around her.
At the office, Ahole says to Vilma to go ahead and get it done… Ahole calls Lupe’s cell phone. Can I NOW talk to him? No, he is busy at the beach. I will tell him to call you tomorrow. Bye. Lupe hangs up on Ahole. She is hoping Emiliano will be back to his own self since his dad is not there.
AS fans herself, still whining. Leo says you better get used to the idea that our ‘semanuqui santa’ will be like this. AS nags at him for CHuy-nizing himself. MA comes out with some wild hijo de Sumatra blue tee shirt. (he borrowed a tee from Chuy, obviously). He not only wears CHuy but he is starting to talk like Chuy, and AS lets him know that. She wants ‘Cristo’ to kill her already.
Ahole and Lupe and Beto are sneaking into the Menchaca home with flashlights and wearing black head to toe… They have to hide briefly and Vilma manages to steal a touch kiss from Ahole since they end up hiding almost on top of each other. Ahole asks Beto to stay outside keeping watch. If he sees something , meow for us!!
Meanwhile, AS is crawling out of the microbus, she can’t sleep in these’accommodations’. Chuy comes out, and as she tells him about the fine shampoos from India and Russian legends, she is fanning the bugs away… Chuy says if you like my ‘shampoo’, I will leave it in the dashboard. Tizoc comes out and says he will sleep in his tent. Chuy wants him to shut up. Frida heard this and peeks out the other door.
Inside the Menchaca house, Ahole keeps bickering at her to use her 5 senses. Pay attention! They have made it up to the penthouse, peek in the window from outside. He signals to her as if they were cops in an ‘operativo’. He comes in the door, notices the big painting on the wall. Seems to recognize it, then nods it off. Then looks behind the curtain. Opens the drawers/dressers and finds a jacket. He smells it, recognizes the aroma, and so does Vilma ‘chanel? no. 9’? It turns out it is the robe that belongs to Matilde (monogrammed to her initials). Ahole announces to Vilma that now the RPs are in his hands!!
Previews: Nepo is ready to tattle on MA… Gwendy reminds him he promised the Menchacas he would not tell the police about MA… (Voice over: Not to the police but yes to Ahole!!).. we see Nepo determined.

Thank you for the fun recap, Marta! It was such a fun episode.
My faves:
Lupita calling MA "hedioso, apestoso, huele mal": "stinky" all in the same sentence! MA apologizing for his "hedor": "stench" and self-sniffing as if he himself cannot believe it. Loved MA telling don Chuy "acerquese a mi calor". Great stinky schtick on that hot bus!
Don Chuy telling the police he was the Hijo de Sumatra and had even "removed the mask " of El Ajolote Enmascarado who turns out to be an uncle of one of the officers. Whoopsie!
Their singing "El Rey" on the bus.
The camping on the beach: Hotel Menchacarena. MA saying " A hui hui" to it all. AS saying she needed 10 gallons of her elixir and asking Cristo to just kill her already. MA asking if he smelled like a lion before going off for a shower. AS arguing with don Chuy about shampoo (pronunciation and type) when he only wanted to help her out with the mosquitos. Tizoc loudly announcing that if someone wants to share his tent they are welcome to do so. Frida hearing that and sticking her head out of the bus.
Not my faves:
Nepo taking Diego to the strip club.
Alejo and Vilma in the azotea finding doña Mati's robe.

A few additional notes...
"jacate" is actually "zacate" and is grass, so Fri was feeling the blades of grass.
I believe the phrase was "no somos gitanos o enamos", "we are not gypsies or dwarves.
Nepo taking DA to that place? Gawd. We just keep seeing a worse and worse side of him!
I think the wrestler's name that got unmasked was "Guajolote" (turkey).
Loved the way Lupita defended MA!
Lupita flat out lied to Alejo by telling him that EMi was doing his homework at home. Alejo even asked flat out "Are you home?" and Lupita said "Yes". Alejo knows that they are on vacay.
Priceless and ingenious: The way that Vilma came up with to throw off the (imaginary) cops when they were outside the house. So cute!
At least we know that Vilma has her priorities straight when it comes to shining the flashing ahead of her to see where she is going! :-D
Endearing moment: Sigo siendo el reyyyyy!!!!

Marta, thanks for yet another great recap. Excellent.
I thought that the trip to the strip club was sweet and well-meant if terribly misguided. I was so sympathetic with poor Diego as he squirmed. He was so cute calling the stripper "Karisma with a K" and spitting his drink asking, "Is that legal?"
Salvador,
I heard "El Ajolote Enmascarado" (the Masked Salamander) and that is also what the CCs said.
Also I'm pretty sure that AS said, "No somos gitanos ni jipis de los sesentas. (We're not gypsies nor hippies of the sixties.)

Jaime Camil's movie "Pulling Strings" just made it to the top of my Netflix queue. I just watched it & enjoyed it. It is por supuesto a mindless chick flick but he is so cute & his mariachi singing so pleasant & he even got a chance to do some of that physical schtick he does so well. All in all a satisfying way to spend a cool & cloudy afternoon in Syracuse. I recommend it.

Thanks, Marta!
I'm not sure what is more disturbing, that Nepo wants to make Diego more like daddy, or that Nepo thinks he's such a machote who is so great with the lady-relations. I don't think Diego would have been into Karisma-con-ka even if he were straight. I don't think the tawdriness of that scene appeals to his shy, artistic sensibilities.
Those Mechacas sure don't travel lightly. Did they take the kitchen sink? They might have! They took everything else! I look forward to seeing more of their camp setup.
The only thing I liked about Ahole and Vilma was Vilma's clever strategy to avert suspicion. Ahole was flummoxed. I hope they all keep Mati out of Ahole's grasp.

The Menchacas travel like people from DF travel. It's common to see big families coming here to the beach during Holy Week on minivans full of stuff that they travel with to save money, lol.
I loved them all singing in the road and I liked Leo joining the Menchacas in their celebrations for the beach. I think he feels grateful for what they have done for him after the situation with Nepo.
Lupe's fake faint was also hilarious but those policemen were so inept letting them go. That was a little beanie moment for me because, while the municipal police is usually inept, they must have been federal officers and they are usually well trained.

Thanks Carlos, your are correc on both accounts :-)
BTW, did any one notice the "no farting" graphic sign in the micro bus? That was so funny and impressive in the level of detail that the set designers built the set. Regards.

What a fun filled recap. Thanks so much Marta for recreating the mirth and silliness. The families have progressed so much. I thought it all jelled when they started singing together. So typical of a journey like that when everyone takes time to slough off their cares and whines and woes. I keep hoping Alejo will be caught but the devilish writers may keep us hanging for another round or two.
Poor long suffering Diego, poor misguided but ever hopeful Nepo. The cabaret club was all fun too.was

Jarocha, I agree with your thoughts about the federales too but my own personal experience when driving home from Oaxaca to Albuquerque about 4 years ago was that when I was stopped numerous times by various police, I quickly learned to roll down the window to the back seat first so they would be enchanted by Willa then roll my window down to talk calmly to them. Without fail they focused on her antics and ignored the huge pile of ceramics and artwork I was fearful of having to unload for inspections. NOT ONE inspection. So even they can be distracted and perhaps sense when people are just having a good time not doing anything illegal. The bus scene was the best!
Was anyone else a bit surprised that Ana Sofia knew the words to El Rey? Even Leo seemed to be familiar with the song.
At first I thought that Alejo might be planning to plant his gun at the RP Annex to the Menchaca home but then realized that would make Vilma aware that he killed Adolfo.
Don Chuy was cute with his adaptation of Leo's "Plan A... Plan B".

Cheryl:
I'm sure beautiful Willa charmed all the cops :) I just thought the Menchacas were a little obvious here. Still, they were fun to watch.
Carlos:
In one of the earlier episodes, when Ana Sofía thought they were leaving for Italy, she organized a Mexican style party with Mariachis. I wouldn't be surprised if she secretly likes to drink tequila to Mariachi music every once and again. As for Leo, Mariachi music isn't frown upon by the fresas, it's actually popular among them because a good Mariachi band can be expensive to hire and impressive to watch if the suits are well made and the band is good.

Carlos, I attend a monthly El Grupo Musical session here in Albuquerque that has friends from all the Latin speaking countries including people like me who have just wanted to learn it. Anyway these gatherings are amazing for the content of how many songs, many Mexican but others not, EVERYONE seems to know and they often know all the verses. One of the organizers has even made notebooks with the words to several hundred songs so people can look on and at least sing the chorus. So no it did not surprise me that Ana Chofa knew how to sing the song, El Rey is popular everywhere. It was one thing that warms her up a bit from the snob thing she usually gets so over the top with.
Marta- Thanks so much for this recap! I'm just now watching the episode, but your recap was like a delicious starter. :)
Thanks for the extra details, Salvador, Carlos and Jarocha.
Cheryl, I agree, they had a similar situation of a bus trip in La hija del Mariachi, and also in the Televisa version, Que bonito amor, they did not travel together but the leading man's sister ended up having to hide in the vecindad where the leading lady's family lived and that is what eventually finally made her turn around in her 'values/ranks' beliefs to accept Maria as the woman who would make her brother happy... living/mingling together definitely brings people from different social classes together (with few exceptions like AS, but she can't help but show some of that angle too when she sang ER with them)
A car trip down Mex, how fun!! have to add it to my bucket list.

No one can resist a sweet doggie!!
Thanks for this recap, Marta. I was afraid they'd spend a week's worth of episodes just on the car trip, but they made it all in one night!
Why won't anyone tell Perla about Leo? At this point it's as if they're deliberately setting her up to be humiliated. Maybe they're waiting till Emiliano is out of earshot before they tell him or something, and I suppose they think they don't have to worry about it while they're at the beach, but someone should put her out of her misery soon that she can find a new guy to obsess over.
Diego at the girlie club: UGH. I wish there were some way for Nepo to see what a fool he's making of himself.
AS's dress: Remember when AS and Frida went to the thrift store/convent/whatever it was to look for the dresses that she had asked Chabelita and Bebe to donate? There was a particular dress there that she complained about... and I think the one she's wearing is it!

Julie, in my memory the one she is wearing now is the last dress she had left after Frida did her laundry to shreds, and she complained that it was only fit for beach resort wear, but had to wear it to the convent thrift store. Now, at least she is dressed appropriately even if nothing else meets her standards.
Thanks, fishknits! LOL, that's much funnier than I remembered. I'm so glad she's making the most of what's left of her wardrobe. :)
Late getting here, but thanks for the entertaining recap, Marta. Loved the bus trip and all the complications of traveling estilo de los Menchacas. Especially enjoyed both families mingling in song and Vilma creating opportunities to kiss Alejo. Nepo so mistaken in thinking the ladies of the club could cure DA.
Loved the road trip! Especially AS and Leo singing with the Menchacas. Seems like Leo is finally humbling down a bit.

Marta:
I'm very late to the party, but thank you so much for this awesome recap! I have been so busy all weekend and today I haven't had a chance to comment. I can't wait to see what other hijinks await them at the beach.
I also hope that maybe Ahole is stepping over the line and will be caught soon, one can hope ; )
