Final La Piloto #80 6-26-17: Dave Takes A Win, Zulima Takes A Spin; Lucio's Locked In
• El Presidente Electo de Sinesterra folds like a wet dollar bill at the thought of being extradited to the U.S. He’ll turn state’s evidence and cooperate—just noooooo don’t send me to the big bad north!!!!!
• DEADave now gives Yolanda the 411 on Estela’s stellar sacrifice: “—she gave her life for me? (Sob) And yes, I have a lot to pardon her for but, I will.” Yoli also has a few questions for Dave. “What will happen between you and me when the rest of us are hiding in the U.S.?” Dave takes a convenient call on his cell. Sinesterra gave the hideout location (?) for John and says there’s a meeting of the cupola tomorrow in Tres Fuegos. He sent a text with the time and directions and got it confirmed. I didn’t catch the rest except it’s under strict confidentiality and the Feds will be waiting to extradite maybe the others to the U.S. (?)

La Piloto #79 6-23-17: Estela La Bella Gives All; Col. Humpty Dumpty And El Presidente Presumpty, Have Their Great Fall; And Zulima Gets Away After All
Parte 1~~
• Yolanda’s hiding under a bed in someone’s cell in the cell block where the lights have gone off. Meanwhile crooked guard gal is telling the inmates they’ve experienced a power failure in some areas of the prison and must stay in the main area till things are sorted out.
• Col. Santa Maria isn’t quite sure where she’s hiding but is certain she’s there and he’ll find her. “—You have to admit I’ve shown plenty of patience with you. (Maybe his twin in another parallel universe, but not after that branding iron trick of his.) If you’d only behaved the way you should have we could have been the perfect couple and gone off to Venezuela together.”

La Piloto #77 6-21-17: Yolanda was--is--still--in Peril
Although I watched the episode last night, there's not much I can remember without a re-run (which I might do later).
I remember Yolanda being reunited with the baby--she gave him Arley's name (I think).
I remember John showing Sonia some horses and her getting a phone call from Sinesterra. She urges peace among all the rival factions.
I remember seeing a lot of mothers with babies all about the same age. Is it something in the water?
I remember Yolanda not having maternal instincts and the warden noticing she didn't know how to burp a baby.
I remember DEADave not being successful in getting immunity or some kind of protection for Yoli and the gang and not wanting to tell Yoli, but decides to go visit.
I remember Yolanda holding baby Arley and having some flashbacks.

La Piloto #76 6-20-17: Yolanda is--was--is--in Peril
Highlights--
Yolanda meets S&M on a lonely country road. The nurse and "Santiago baby" are in the back seat.
Mama Estela and Arley are hot on the trail.
S&M makes her drive to the latest Lucio hideout (which we now know is an abandoned school--huh?) He tells Zuli to watch the nurse and the baby until he decides what to do with them.
He hangs her up and fires up a brazier. He takes off his coat and gets busy. He looks hungry, maybe it's a barbecue.
Arley goes in and makes Estela stay put. Estela doesn't stay put.

La Piloto #73 6.15.17: In Which Yolanda Continues to Lose...
Thank you to my co-pilot, Jardinera, who first encouraged me to watch this, because I had no plans to, but was pleasantly surprised by the great acting, face paced story and relatable characters (despite a lot of dumb decisions along the way ;D) And I want to thank you all, our loyal commentors and passengers on this bumpy ride: Kirby, JudyB, Niecie, Carvivlie, Anita, Nett, Lynette, Steve, Vivi (for a little in the beginning there, hope you've kept up!) and many others who came and went. Hope to see you for another one and talk soon! :)

La Piloto #65 6-5-17: When Is Failure Not A Failure? When Luck Turns It Into Success
John and Col. SantaMaria are greeted with cheers at the latest encampment in the D.F. for the ex-cartelitos. We learn (much to Viewerville's disgust that Oscar's remains are a-ripenin' in the trunk. Nope. He did not get a burial yet.) The boys in the band are now supposed to give due homage to The Dead One, no doubt now ripening like a fine fromage. (My apologies to our resident former French profesora, but I couldn't resist.)
