Caray, Caray!

⦁ Natalia is shocked to receive a phone call from Adrien asking for help now that he's been caught. Natalia spurns him and then hangs up on him.  She is an emotional mess.  It's a mystery what a self-serving, self-obsessed, vain man like Adrien is feeling--certainly not remorse, but maybe he can hide behind "change of life" issues.

⦁ Olga has packed and dressed in her skimpiest.  At the resort, she has a few too many morning gulps and gets drunk, blacks out, and falls into the pool.  Poor victim Vicente is forced to jump in to save her.  She wakes up and immediately lays a major suction-cup liplock on him in thanks.  He's shocked.  After all, they are only friends, he reminds her.  "--Well, can't we be friends with benefits?"  He takes her barely conscious self back to her room and throws the covers over her.

⦁ Elias is still looking for Omar's whereabouts.  Sammie (who reminds me more and more of Eddy Munster rather than Lily in that frightful pants suit and 5-inch pair of platform Mary Janes) complains none of his friends know a thing.  Elias is a man with a plan, however.  He heads over to the club.

⦁ At the club, Elias looks for Mauricio, Omi's BFF.  Once found, Elias takes Mau out of his golf lesson and over to his mother.  Eli asks Mau's mama how the bidnez is going.  Great, especially since Elias loaned her the working capital to keep it going after Adrien Cantu ran off with her cash reserves.  Since the business is bad, or going through a downturn, and Elias holds the note, Mau now realizes he's got no choice but to give up his BFF. He tells Elias that Omar and Andrea are at a family get-together at Constanza's vacation home.

⦁ Speaking of which, Constanza cons Andi out of the truth. Connie has rightly figured the reason for the rush to marry is now that Andi's preggers and asks her point-blank if this is true.  Andi and Regi must eventually admit that Andi's pregnant but Omi doesn't know. Andi adds it wasn't the entire reason because she'd just found out a day or so ago about the pregnancy.  However, she thought she might tell Omi this weekend.  No, neither Nata or his parents know about the baby; his parents don't even know that she and he are getting married next weekend   Connie later offers to pinky swear never to tell a living soul about the bun in the oven of the would-be chef's daughter, aka, Andrea.

⦁ Once Sammie learns about Connie's invited Omi and Andi to her home, she makes a frantic call to Con.  Conniving Connie is only too willing to tell Sammie about both the baby and the wedding.   

⦁ Chente has to return home to take care of a problem with the business, but he will return the next morning to the resort, he promises.  Benji won't stay at the resort without him because Vulga has silently and secretly threatened him again.  Chente takes  Benji back with him.  

⦁ That evening, Chole turns down a night of boozing and bedding with Juanga in Chente's unused bedroom. Vulga, who is unaware of Chente's return to the city, wakes up from her nap of inebriation.  She slyly sneaks into Chente's room thinking he's in there and that she will finally seduce him.  She undresses and jumps in, totally au naturel, next to the unconscious male body lying under the sheets, and kisses him awake.   Unfortunately, for her, it's not Chente in the bed returning her canoodling contact,  but Juanga, who himself had been thinking it was Chole.  He calls out her name.  Ruh-rohhhh!  Vulga immediately freezes.  Once they both realize the mistake, on go the lights and Vulga's clothes.  A few light insults and promises not to tell are exchanged and then she races out.  Juanga is smitten with Vulga's ...zealous  displays of her...er...sultry vitality.

⦁ Back at Chente's house, Nata is remembering the last time she and Adrien made love--their anniversary, the feelings she had for him, and her telling him how much she loved him.  She also remembers Veronica and Adrien shamelessly gushing over his and Nata's marital bliss at the anniversary party.

⦁ Back in the barrio, Nata and Chente put Benji to sleep.  It's apparent that they enjoy this familial moment. (Cue the overlay of Lucia in angel's wings  peeking in from on high.)

⦁ Adrien, meanwhile is also remembering Nata and perhaps regretting all those bridges he's burned.
