Caray, Caray!

  Col. Santa Maria questions La Embajador (Lady Ambassador) and learns that El Senador brought Yolanda in to replace The Brothers Lucio to bring him his merchandise.  The base of operations is at The Mediterranean Club.  She gives him directions to the place and he’s given a number of men to help try raiding the place and getting his hands on Yolanda “to fix a few things outstanding” between them.

 Zulima goes over the map and the agenda from once they land in Colombia while Guard Dog Pilot sits and sleeps in the back seat of the plane.  Yolanda says the place is pure jungle and she has a lot of nasty memories.  Chocó was the name of the town she was held prisoner in.



 Lisbet and Estela sneak a peek at the scandalous news video of the Senator, Vergara and Oscar congratulating and praising each other.  Estela and Lis realize then that he’s not only involved with the drug cartel but, as Estela says, he heads the whole thing.

 At the same time, DEADave is spying on the goings and comings outside The Club when Arley calls to get the 411 on Amanda’s murderer.  He learns that it was Zuli.  He swears to Dave he’s going to off her if it’s the last thing he ever does.  --And no, he doesn’t know the first thing about any Club Med.  Dave says the place has something to do with drug trafficking. (I think—he mumbles so much who can say for certain.)  Arley thinks it could be the place is a façade, a cover for Las Sombras where the Lucios did bidnez.

 Yoli and Zoo commiserate over their separate ordeals, Yoli’s in captivity being abused, raped and tortured and Zoo lying about her “captivity” with the Lucio’s.  (Viewerville is reminded that it was Zoo and Oscar that tried offing her numerous times over that five or so months.)  During the conversation Yoli realizes that Zuli’s timeline doesn’t seem to add up.  How long was it (Zuli has to lie a bit more) and what did she do to survive all that time?  “—Things I am not exactly thrilled about.”

 Back at the manse, aka Club Med, Olivia and Wilmer return from the airport.  Yeah, his trip was a success.  Lis and Estela tell the others about Sinesterra and Vergara being in the video that’s gone viral and how he’s actually in his neck up to it with the drug trade.  Just then   Lis gets Raul’s message—she’s got the phone on speaker as she listens—that the fingerprints on the car that ran over Amanda came back and they belong to Zulima!!  Estela is vindicated.  “—I told you something was off with that woman!  Zulima is a snake!”

 Back in the plane, Yoli remembers her mom telling her that she doesn’t believe a word of Zuli’s story about being kidnapped.  “—Something doesn’t square about that woman.  I don’t trust her one bit.  I was kidnapped and I never saw her or heard her in all that time.   She might just have sold you out to the Federales!”

 S&M and John decide on a truce.  He’ll let the colonel keep the cash from Villa Antigua as payment in full for taking out both Yolanda Cadena and the Senator.  “Two birds with one stone.”  S&M is down with that!

 Meanwhile, Raul is watching the scandal video on the news at 9 when Liz calls to verify what the prints prove.   Yep, she’s definitely involved.  “—She lied about being kidnapped!  She was in the hospital hiding!”  Just then Vergara shows up and screams at them for being on a cell phone.  He confiscates the phones and herds them upstairs to be locked in their respective rooms.

 Arley shows up outside Club Med.  Dave calls him over to his car and gives him a gun.  They’re going to raid the place.

 About the same time, Sinesterra arrives back at the manse and joins Vergara in the conference room to discuss the fallout from the video and wait for La Embajador, aka Sonia, to get there for a major pow-wow.  She takes the Senator’s angst-ridden call and blows it off.  She has more important business with John and the two of them do get busy…..

 At Club Med again, Arley and Dave sneak in, both packin’, clearing room after room, after room, after room FF>> till they find Lis locked in her room upstairs. They release Lis.  Dave captures a guarro and knocks him out, taking the walkie-talkie with him.  Then they get Wilber and Oli out of the next bedroom and of course, not to ever be forgotten, Estela.

 The conference room is way at the back and so none of the noise is heard by Vergara and The Senator.  They’re too busy listening to the general lecture and dress-down the Senator for letting that video get out.  Finally Sinesterra’s heard and had enough and slams the phone down on the loud-mouthed general.  “--This association is finished!”  Click!

 Outside, S&M and the posse have shown up.  He starts shooting the guarros.  So much for the advantage of surprise…. Arley and Dave get an earful about what’s happening to the security guards and how they’ve been overrun.  Arley races to get the Gone gang upstairs and out of the place in between shooting security guards and avoiding Sinesterra and Vergara who are heading down into the garage to drive off ASAP.

 Sonia takes a call from one of the cupola and plays dumb about the shootout.  John hangs up the phone for her.  They get busy again…..

 S&M and the posse enter the manse now and start clearing rooms…..

 Vergara and The Senator make it to the basement and call for help as Dave is hot on their trail and following them down.  Blam!  Bang! Bang-bang!  The Senator drives away as Vergara shoots to protect him from behind one of the pillars.

 Upstairs, Arley is now in a shoot-out with S&M (who, Viewerville notes, ♫♪wears his sunglasses at night♪♫) tells Arley he’s got no quibble with him.  He just wants Yolanda Cadena. Arley shoots some more and races to the top of the stairs to join the others.  S&M starts coming for them.  It’s the terminator in shades, a mustache, and a crappy Latin accent making his way forward, step by step by step by step…..
