Alt Title: That's My Body and I'll Take It If I Want It
Beltrino gasps as he thinks about seeing his body. He
watches Mugres going up the hospital stairs and starts to go after him with his
weapon drawn. When Mugres reaches the top of the stairs and is seen, people
start screaming and the undercover nurse and another cop yell at him. As LCJ
turns around and makes a run for it, shots are fired, Beltrino makes a quick
u-turn down the stairs, and Carmelo goes down. Mugres grabs a nurse as hostage
and retreats as he tells the undercover nurse to not move. Once Mugres makes a
run for it, the nurse chases after him while LCJ hides behind the nurse’s
station and Beltrino is at the bottom of the stairwell waiting for things to settle
down upstairs.
Outside, the cops arrive
and are told to cover all the exits. Mugres has released the nurse and runs
down the outside stairs while flinging around his weapon. As the undercover
nurse talks to the head cop and tells him that García was shot, Lupita is
panicking and Juls tells Vale to lock the door. Vale goes to close the door,
but LCJ grabs and pulls her out to take her away from the hospital. Meanwhile,
Beltrino goes to look behind the nurse’s station in search of his former body.
He finds nothing and looks around. Out on the stairs, Vale is yelling at LCJ
that she needs to stay with Juls, but LCJ yells back that he is not going to
let anything happen to her and that they are leaving NOW! Inside, Beltrino
walks frantically in search of his body as Alicia calls him about the shots
fired; so he tells her to lock herself in the room. Outside, Vale is trying to
get away from LCJ because she wants to go back with Juls until he grabs her
head with both hands and tells her that no one will harm her. Mugres is still
running through stairs and halls trying to get away from the cops who are now
everywhere; they finally manage to surround him at some stairs. After he has a
hissy fit and drops his weapon, the cops cuff and arrest him.
Inside the hospital, a
security guard tries to calm everyone down at the cafeteria while Beltrino is
in a frenzy searching for his body. He sees someone in a suit crouched and
grabs him to take a look…Nopis, not him! Beltrino is frustrated that he lost
his body. (Again dammit! Never a dull moment with that body, Buddy.)
At the company, Lucía is
playing with her origami bird as she tells Cardenas that she knows she is not
one of his favored saints; she knows he thinks she is an opportunist and a
million other bad things. Cardenas tries to get a word in, but Lucía tells him
not to be a hypocrite; she knows how loyal he is to Eva and agrees with Eva
that she shouldn’t be there. She wants to make one thing clear…she is there to
stay...because she can; and she isn’t going anywhere; so it’s important that
they have a friendlier relationship. When Cardenas asks why she is saying all
of this, Lucía asks him who was so discreet in sending him to ask for the
financial report….she thinks it’s Eva. Cardenas replies that it is his job, but
Lucía points out that he specifically asked for the report from the time right
after León’s death. After Cardenas explains that Don Carvajal expected them to
request reports frequently, Lucía emphasizes that things are no longer that
way. Cardenas accepts that, but what seems odd to him is that both she and
Johny are so shocked that a board member would request reports to ensure the
financial status of the company. Lucía could care less what reports he asks
for, the problem is that he is not telling who is behind this…who is asking for
all the reports. She then tells him that when he is ready to tell her the
truth, he knows where to find her….she doesn’t like lies (only the ones she
tells?? Must be why you look soooo
unhoppy lately)
Outside the hospital,
Mugres is brought to Montilla. Montilla roughs him up a bit and makes him look
at his dead buddy who is being taken out in a gurney. Meanwhile, inside the
hospital, Beltrino is now taking his time looking for his body when Barb calls
him to ask for her money. Beltrino tells her he has more important things to do
right now...he just saw some other guy with his body. After he tells her about
the shooting and how he lost sight of his body, Barb asks who the guy is and if
he works there, but Beltrino has no idea since he saw him from afar. Barb
thinks that guy is the key to everything; Beltrino knows that…that is why he
isn’t going to stop until he finds him. When Beltrino tells her that he is
going to tell the guy to return his body to him, Barb thinks that is
impossible. Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Belt?
LCJ and
Vale arrive at the Carvajal home. Vale is talking to Juls and is furious that LCJ
forced her to leave the hospital when she wanted to stay. She then tells Juls
that if anything happens, she will send Jacobo for her. LCJ tries to motion to
her that he can’t, but Vale ignores him. After she ends the call, Vale tells
LCJ that she doesn’t know why she allowed him to take her out of the hospital.
He replies that she is not thinking straight; (no not THAT kinda straight)
there were criminals and she could have gotten shot. They start to argue until
Vale asks him who he thinks he is…her father? (uhmm, yeah, he is!) When she
tells him to know his place, LCJ apologizes, but Vale tells him he can leave.
At the
hospital, Juls and Pancho are wondering why the goons came back if they
supposedly believed Lupita was dead. As they discuss, Lucho, Sergio, and Nayeli
approach; so Juls tells them that Vale left to go home. When Lucho tells her
that they are not there to see Vale, but to donate blood, Juls thanks them and
shows them to the lab.
Alacrán
and Co. arrive at the airport. When he asks about Mugres, Gancho tells him that
things went sour at the hospital…Mugres got caught and Carmelo was taken out.
Alacrán is pissed because all they had to do was find out about Lupita’s
funeral. When heavy-set goon tells him that the cops set up a trap, Alacrán curses
and doesn’t believe the cops could have done that.
At a
prison, Montilla walks slowly to Mugres’s jail cell and welcomes him; they are
very happy to have him there and Montilla is going to make sure that his staty
there is a pleasant one…BUT the quality of services they will provide depends
on the information Mugres can give them. (If you don't sing we are not going to
let you frost your hair pretty one.)
Montilla gives him a choice—stay in a 5-star hotel or unlimited time in
hell. Sh*t-for-brains Mugres wonders what Montilla wants him to say since he
was only at the hospital to visit a sick aunt. When Montilla asks what he can
tell him about Alacrán, Mugres plays stupid and tells him that there are
several types of scorpions that can be very dangerous…they’re poisonous and sting.
After Montilla laughs at Mugres’s humor, he tells him that then he has chosen
his package—of torture where they have infallible methods to get information.
Montilla then tells him to relax and enjoy the company of his newfound friends
(mean-looking thugs who happen to be in the next cell) who are very anxious to
be with him. As Montilla walks away, he tells the guard to “let ‘em loose!”
(Remember the other goon's wife in the elevator? Your turn, blondie.)
At the hospital, Sergio
and Nayeli finish up giving blood. Nayeli is starving, so Juls invites them all
to have breakfast at the cafeteria or to at least give them some money for
breakfast, but Lucho assures her that she need not pay them…he has already told
her that Vale’s friends are his friends. After Juls thanks him and tells him
that she needs to go wait for the doctor, Lucho tells her that she can count on
him for anything. As Juls walks away, Lucho looks at her with annoyance.
At the hospital offices,
Beltrino is trying to talk the clerk into showing him the list of employees.
When the clerk refuses, Beltrino tells her not to be so hard-hearted and makes
up some story of having a brother whom he hasn’t seen in ten years. When he
adds that he just saw him, the clerk tells him that he can leave his name and
number; she will call him after she talks to administration. As he gives her
his name, he hears Juls say, “It’s you? I knew it was you.”
At the company, Renata is
at her desk humming when Mayela approaches and tells her she didn’t see her the
day before; Mayela thought (HOPEOED) she had quit. After Renata tells her she
had personal business to tend to, Mayela asks for Guille; so Renata replies
that he is with Eva. Mayela leans over Renata’s desk and asks her if she and
Guille made plans to be out on the same day…it’s quite a coincidence that both
of them didn’t show up yesterday. Renata gets somewhat nervous and starts to
tell Mayela that she doesn’t know, but Mayela tells her not to get so nervous
because she is only confirming her suspicions. Mayela then reminds Renata of
her place; she is only a secretary and should be aware of her limits. Just
then, Guille walks out of Eva’s office and greets Mayela with a hug and a kiss.
After they both go into his office to talk, Keila comes and whispers to Renata
that it looks like Mayela suspects that something is going on between Renata
and Guille. Renata wonders how Mayela could know…a witch maybe? Witch, yeah, but her BFF saw you two in your
car.
At the hospital, Beltrino
gets nervous and wonders what Juls means. She explains that her mother told her
about her guardian angel and that it was the same person who had paid the
hospital costs. Her mother told him his name and when she heard him say it just
now, she was touched. When Juls asks why he did it and if he knows her mother,
Beltrino thinks about how he should respond.
At some restaurant, Cami
talks to Steve about his research on transmigration. Cami tells him he has had
five cases, but one died. When Steve warns him that there are lots of fakes,
Cami explains that he is talking about souls in different bodies. Steve asks if
Cami has done extensive mental exams because he has to check everything. When
Steve started his own investigation, he had many hopes until he found that his
cases were that of mental illness. When Cami assures him that he has scientific
evidence, Steve teases him and asks if he is ready to go to the Vienna Conference,
but Cami doesn’t have time to go to Vienna…he is too busy. Cami continues that
his current investigation goes beyond his first book; he has a case of a 45
year old who transmigrated to a 15-year-old…and of a different sex. Steve is in
disbelief that the people can’t choose the body or sex that they want; so Cami
tells him that only death can decide that. Steve then hopes that this research
doesn’t drive Cami crazy.
In his bedroom, Roy,
Hector’s son, is on Facebook when he gets a friend request from Amanda
Cisneros. Seeing that she is a looker, Roy starts chatting with her not
realizing that the name is fake and it’s really Hec-Maru. When he sends her a
video of himself skateboarding, Hec-Maru gets pissed because he had already
told him not to do that…this is what he is doing instead of crying over his
death. Roy then comments about his father’s abusive behavior; this sets off
Hec-Maru again and he privately and vehemently denies treating them badly. He
gets even worse when Roy writes that his mother has a boyfriend and Roy likes
him. Arrrggghhh. Lucho is getting beat out by a chick, and now
HeckMo turned into a chick and is beat out by a man. You can't win in this town.
At the hospital, Beltrino
and Juls sit as Beltrino explains that destiny put him in the right place so
that he could help her mother…anyone would have done what he did. Juls then
questions how he was able to pay off the hospital bill. Beltrino responds that
money doesn’t come easy; so it should be spent on important things, such as helping
others. Juls doesn’t think everyone thinks like Beltrino. When she adds that
her father wouldn’t have paid one peso for her mother, Beltrino wonders if that
is what she really thinks of her father; so Juls adds that her father is
selfish and cheap. She then remarks that she doesn’t want to talk about her
father…who she thinks she may have run into a while ago. Beltrino blurts out,
“So you saw him too!” (And thinks 'Was that out loud?') Juls looks surprised, so Beltrino asks if her
father came to see her mother. Juls shrugs and responds that she honestly
doesn’t know if he came to see her mother; she yelled at him, but he ignored
her…which doesn’t surprise her because her father has always run away from his
responsibilities. After she adds that her father is a coward, Beltrino looks
dismayed and bites his tongue.
In Guille’s office,
Mayela grills Guille about being out the previous day and where he went. Guille
wonders why all the questions which seem more of an interrogation; so Mayela
tells him she was just worried. Guille then tells her that he went to the
valley; he wanted to get away for some quiet and privacy. Mayela quickly asks
if he went alone. Guille is startled and wonders why Mayela is acting like a
jealous girlfriend when they are just friends. When he asks that she not ruin
their friendship because of some absurd jealousy, Mayela forces a smile and
tells him that she has it very clear. Guille then tells her he has to go to a
meeting and leaves. As he tells Renata that he is going to a meeting, Mayela
watches from the office like an alley cat eyeing its next victim.
At the scorpion’s nest,
Alacrán vows that they will pay for what they have done to his peeps and warns
that Mugres better not have a loose tongue while in the can. When Gancho suggests
that he can tell one of his contacts in jail to “take care” of Mugres, Alacrán
would rather wait and see what happens…anyways, Mugres knows what will await
him if he sings. They then consider whether El Chino had something to do with
this; Alacrán is irked that the scoundrel is making fools of them.
At the company, Lucía is
on her phone telling Rosalba to schedule a board meeting when LCJ walks in and
starts closing the blinds; he tells her to tell Rosalba to hold off on
scheduling a meeting or to schedule it for later. Lucía responds with, “Ay!
Caray! (is she thinking about us here at Caray? :-) When she asks why, LCJ
replies that they have something pending. Lucía smiles big and asks, “Here?”
LCJ
thinks there could be worse places, but today they only have this quaint
office. Lucía tells him she has a busy day, but LCJ reminds her that during her
phone call, she wanted this meeting, but since he is a gentleman, she just
needs to say the word and he will leave. Lucía agrees as she takes off his
jacket and they kiss. They continue to kiss and take off their clothes as they
each say that they are now leaving.
While
they are getting it on, Rosalba is confirming the meeting as she tries to peek
into Lucía’s
office.
Cecilia leaves her
building and gets picked up by her new beau as she sees Hec-Maru watching from
across the street.
At the company boardroom,
everyone is waiting for Lucía to arrive…she is already five minutes late.
Meanwhile Lucía and LCJ are heavy into their own private meeting as Lucía
whispers that she wants to make to love to LCJ…and only him. She wonders if
this doesn’t scare him...she is afraid that he may go away some day and not be
able to feel this. LCJ nods that he is afraid too.
Renata sits at her desk
with a big smile daydreaming about her time with Guille as Mayela approaches
and tells Renata to get her phone because she left it in Guille’s office. After
Renata hands it to her, Mayela cunningly reminds Renata that there are statuses
and that Renata shouldn’t try to climb up where she doesn’t belong. Renata secretly thinks, 'Like on TOP of
Guille, Bitch'?
At the hospital, the
doctor is explaining the process to Javier and Alicia. When Alicia mentions
that they now have the money needed, the doctor responds that all they need now
is to find a donor that will match. In Javier’s case, the parents are not
compatible so they need to find someone else who is willing to donate. As he
continues, Beltrino is off to the side thinking about seeing his body earlier
in the day. Alicia interrupts his thoughts to tell him that the doctor is
leaving. Once alone, Alicia asks Beltrino why he looks so disinterested in what
the doctor had to say. Once he assures her that he is interested, Beltrino
leaves to go take care of something. Outside the room, Beltrino calls Santos
and asks what the other transmigrant looks like. After Santos describes LCJ,
Beltrino hisses that the man has his body. Beltrino wants to meet the man NOW
and tells Santos to give him his address so they can meet. As Santos sends his
location, he sees Death Chick watching him; so he walks slowly past her as he
looks back at her.
Santos then walks down
the hall to his room and calls LCJ to tell him about the meeting with the other
man. As he is about to open his door, the lights flicker. As he slowly opens
the door, a bright light engulfs his room as he sees Death Chick waiting for
him. When she extends her hand toward him, Santos takes it and she leads him
into the room.
At the company boardroom,
Eva is tired of waiting for Lucía who has no consideration for their time. As
she gets up to leave, Lucía waltzes in (anyone check to see if her jacket was
buttoned up correctly?) and tells Eva to sit down…it’s not as if Eva’s time is
that valuable. After Lucía excuses herself for being late due to a pending
issue, Johny looks at her suspiciously (is her make-up smeared, teeth marks on
her ...oh well?). Once the meeting starts, Lucía has her proposal handed out
which offers to buy out the rest of the associates. Johny looks at her with a
smirk as Eva gives her a kill’er look.
Beltrino
arrives at Santos’s hotel as LCJ listens to his message. LCJ leaves a message for Santos that he will
be there ASAP. At the hotel, Beltrino, accompanied by the hotel manager, is
banging on Santos’s door and telling him to open the door. When Santos doesn’t
answer, Beltrino urges the manager to open the door. Once inside, Beltrino
finds Santos laying rigidly on his bed with only the whites of his eyes
visible. Betrino breathes heavily as he reaches out to touch Santos, but
quickly pulls back his hand as if having received an electric shock.
At the
company boardroom, Eva thinks Lucía is crazy. Lucía explains that
León was a generous man who liked to have those who helped him build his empire
close by making them part of the company…but that is no longer the case. Eva
jabs that it’s no longer the case only because Lucía is now there. Lucía
gracefully ignores her and continues that they had consultants conduct a review
and they recommended that it was the best thing for the company. Eva can’t
believe Lucía is doing this. Johny acknowledges Eva’s opinion, but wants to see
what the others thinks. When Guille asks about the family, Lucía responds that
if there is one thing she has learned, it’s that it’s much harder to conserve a
patrimony than to build it. Lucía proposes to obtain 15% of the shares that
belong to outsiders to consolidate that with the family’s shares. Johny
explains that León owned 55% of the shares; and according to the company
statutes, 75% of the shares are needed to make important decisions. Lucía
interjects that that is why it is best to globalize the shares and have the
family make the decisions. Eva thinks Lucía wants all the control. Cardenas
thinks that this is more like a discreet firing. Barretos agrees and doesn’t
think León would be in agreement; so he is not going to sell his shares. When
Eva insists that Lucía just wants to empower herself to take over the company,
Lucía smirks and tells her that she can think whatever she wants. Eva warns
that the sons and daughters are not going to make it easy for her. If there is
one thing that has worried Lucía ever since León died, it is the children’s
patrimony…and that includes her (Eva). After Lucía addresses the three outside
associates and tells them to consider the offer because it will benefit them,
she stands and makes her cordial exit.
At the
hotel, Beltrino grabs Santos and turns him over to reveal that the butterfly
tattoo is gone. He quickly goes to the mirror and sees that his butterfly is
intact.Meanwhile, on his way to the hotel, LCJ calls Cami to tell him about
Santos’s call which seemed somewhat strange. All Santos told him was that he
needed to see him right away. Cami tells LCJ that he has received Santos’s test
results, but would rather discuss them with LCJ personally. When LCJ insists
on a report, Cami tells LCJ that Santos had extremely high levels of
everything. LCJ will continue on to the hotel and take Santos back to Cami’s
house (in a coffin?). Back at the hotel room, Beltrino is frantically looking
through Santos’s things. He finds the phone, but can’t access it because it is
locked. Just then the manager comes in and tells him that he shouldn’t be
touching anything until the cops get there. After Beltrino slams the manager
against the wall, the manager runs out and Beltrino tries to swat the butterfly
as he tells it to leave him alone. Beltrino then starts wheezing as he sits on
the bed looking through Santos’s wallet, then lays back beside Santos as his
hands tremble.
Eva
returns to her office and meets with the private investigator she hired to
follow Lucía. When he shows her the reports, she asks about a
certain day; so the PI tells her that they could only follow Lucía to a certain point because Lucía got off her
vehicle and got into another one; his men couldn’t follow any further because
the men appeared to be heavy duty narcos. The PI then tells her that there is
something else she should note…Lucía made several visits to Johny’s house and
they were all at night. Eva knew something was going on between those two!
