Caray, Caray!

• The DEA set up Estela with the wire for her meeting with Yolanda. They explain that it has a long range and she shouldn’t stop talking so they always know where she. Estela has no questions so Ortega asks Simpson and Dave to follow her outside so they can talk. Estela takes a swig from her vodka bottle when the agents have left.
• In Dave’s office, Dave confesses that he doesn’t think they should use Estela but Ortega reminds him that they have no other clues or tips to find the Lucios so Yolanda is the next best thing. Simpson thinks it’s a good idea and asks if Estela accepted of her own free will; Ortega confirms she did for a reward. Dave is shocked to hear this but Ortega reminds her that she is the mother of a criminal. Dave asks Simpson about his meeting with the air control employee and Simpson explains the airplane disappeared from the radar and that’s that. Dave could’ve sworn he worked for the Lucios but Simpson doesn’t think so. Ortega goes to take Estela to one of the hotels the DEA uses and Simpson offers to take her so they can have a coffee.
• In her hotel room at the Lucios, Zulima does a ritual while remembering all the times John used her for sex and then threw her away like yesterday’s trash.


• Zeki arrives at Zulima’s vacant apartment and lets himself in. He walks down the hallway but hears a knock; it’s the doorman of the building, who knows he’s inside, and threatens to call the police.

• An undercover DEA agent, Lopez, talks to a manager about a job as a taxi driver at Rapi Taxi. He tells Lopez to fill out the forms and bring it to him to saw; Lopez arrives and walks away. He then takes out his phone and calls Ortega. He informs her that the hiring process, etc. seems normal but Ortega is convinced that the Lucios own it and asks that he keep surveillance them. Lopez agrees and hangs up.
• Moments later, at a bar, Ortega and Simpson are having a drink. He asks her about her phone call and she confesses that she’s nervous. She’s not sure how far and wide the Lucio payroll goes and is worried that she could be talking about something and an informant could be listening. He thinks the dismantling of the airline was a good first step in dismantling the Lucios and she agrees and then tells her it’s an honor to work with her because she’s very efficient and they toast. He then asks if there’s anything eh should know regarding Yolanda and Dave because he pays special attention to her. Ortega makes it clear that Dave’s objective is clear and she knows that Yolanda is very pretty but she’s John Lucio’s woman. Simpson thinks if that’s true, then she doesn’t waste time; he admits Yolanda is pretty but he likes another type of woman and smiles. Ortega nervously smiles too.
• In Villa Antigua, Yolanda comes and informs John that she’s going with him to rescue La Consentida because he didn’t leave her alone in her aunt’s rescue. Either way, he’s going to need a pilot and he agrees and they kiss as Oscar comes and asks if she’s coming. Yolanda takes out her gun and asks if he has a problem with it but Oscar would be honored to have her along for the mission but would be sad if something happened to her. Yolanda reminds him that he should be careful too that he doesn’t get in the line of fire. John tells them both to stop the bickering and they all leave.

• The Lucios and Yolanda meet with one of his men and explains the plane to rescue La Consentida: he tells them that they are going to storm the hanger and then fly the plane out of there. Everyone agrees and then Yolanda shows everyone the route by land and warns them to be careful the closer they get to the hanger. They all get a gun and set off in separate motocycles with a truck following them.
• Later, they arrive and leave the motocycles behind one of the buildings with two men and walk 10 kilometers to the hanger. Then Oscar and two men stay by the door as the rest go in. Everyone looks for the plane but Yolanda warns John that it’s a trap as soon as a shootout breaks out. John asks everyone to cover themselves as Dave comes in, pointing a gun at Oscar, and tells them all to lower their guns. The men act as if they will but then shoot at Dave, who runs away. The police continue to shoot at the Lucios, who shoot back, but Yolanda manages to escape the hanger with Dave in tow. She hides under the stairs but Dave finds her and tells her to lose the gun. Yolanda comes out into the open and tells him to lower his and Dave obliges and asks that she looks him in the eye.

• Ortega arrives at the office and Simpson offers her a coffee. She takes it black but he thought he took latte but she reminds him he doesn’t know her. She then tells her that she had a good time last night and Simpson did too. They smile but Dave comes in and lets them know the mission to arrest the Lucios failed. Ortega asks why he didn’t call her and Dave explains he called her 3 times but her phone went directly to voicemail. Ortega looks at Simpson and Dave reiterates that he’s tired of them always been one step ahead. Ortega tells Dave to go to the infirmary and she will take care of the plan they spoke about yesterday.

He follows her and doesn’t give the man his tip.
• Yolanda is back at the Lucio table with a sourpuss face. John asks her what is wrong and Yolanda asks him to help the flight attendants find work because they are passing through a rough patch.

John tells her that he will send them money till the end of the money and Oscar chides him for being charitable. Yolanda tells them that they prefer to work and asks John if they can bring them along and then find them work in the organization. Oscar reminds her that he already has enough seeing her face everyday so that her posse ends up working with them. Yolanda goes to say something but John stops her and Arley tells John he agrees with Yolanda. John agrees but tells him it’s his job to take them out of Amanda’s apartment and bring them to Villa Antigua. Arley agrees but the celebration is short lived because Vaquero comes and informs him that DEA agents are trying to enter the hotel. They all run off.

He arrests and they inform him his rights but not before Dave tells him they are going to talk.
• In the parking garage, Estela informs Amanda that Ernesto was her guide and companion because he accepted her as she was and maintained her, not like Yolanda’s father who was a mediocre man. She explains that she was a swimmer and was going to be in the Pan-American games but her pregnancy and eventual marriage ruined everything. She goes to tell Amanda how she met Yolanda’s father but Amanda asks her to be quiet because she’s nervous. Just then, Yolanda comes with Arley and Amanda runs to meet them.
