Caray, Caray!

Just Dust in the Wind

The nightmare is real.  Leonardo has come to do an audit of the galleries.  A very subdued Elisa requests a tete a tete with him.  Once alone,  Curley Locks, aka CFO Fabricio offers to accompany her but Elisa declines.  

Meanwhile, Majo, whose level of self-esteem has plummeted recently to all-time lows is now about to let herself be used to mop Dario's floors.  She knocks at the door and asks if it's true Dario made a bargain with Elisa never to see her again in exchange for keeping away from El's family, and Majo in particular.  He reminds her it was she that left him and not the other way around.  What he felt for her once is now dead and the cadaver about to be buried.  He yells at her that he never lied about who he is and what he does and that she despises him for it.  The two of them are fire and water and he's realized that she's just not the right woman for him.  Besides, he's a businessman at heart; it's all just business to him.  Elisa promised to continue working for him without complaining if he left her alone.  Yep, it just was good business.

Sometimes it's a good thing to sleeve the ace. – Dashiell Hammett

Elisa made Dario an offer he refused. To deal with her and her alone in exchange for revealing his boss, who was getting rich while he was doing the dirty work and taking all the risks. He said he reported to no one. Elisa said well and good, “but the only ones who would end up n prison are you and me.” Something in his face said she had hit home.

Casa Cobra

JL tells Dario that the cops have their eye on both him and his papi. Now that he's large and in charge, he needs twice what they were paying Tapia to "buy more people." (Will he also get two bullets up the nostrils when they're tired of him? Don't think he's thought that far ahead.) 

Dario agrees but says he has to take care of Clara and Leo. "My brother is untouchable," says JL. "And Clara and Nieves are under my protection." Dario tells him to do whatever he needs to do..."just get them offa me." 

Poolhouse of Broken Hearts

Leo & Elisa, meanwhile, are still rehashing the previous night's argument. She is petulantly peeved that he can think there's anything between her and Fab in spite of the fact that he's stuck to her like lint on a sweater. Leo is direct: "He clearly has the hots for you. I'M the one who's the third wheel here." 

He walks away. She calls him back, but he doesn't come. Not so well trained after all.

Sorry this is a bit late, today my husband turns 35 - I had to run find him a present this morning, no easy task during lockdown (when in doubt, one bottle of single malt is always a good choice).

This was a good episode, things are happening, I hope my writing makes sense, not enough time to properly edit.

 For the first time in her life Teresa is acting like a good host, saying thank you to Eliesa and Fab, and offering them something to drink. She has to be doing it on purpose, because Leo’s icy stare is anything but welcoming. He wants to pay back Fabricio the money spent on Leslie, but Fab won’t hear of it, which bothers Leo even more. Eliesa explains that everything that happened was Majo’s fault, Tere eventually goes upstairs to see the girls and Fab goes to the car.

Eliesa stays behind to talk to Leo, explain the situation. Even SHE can tell that he’s not OK. He wants to know why she didn't call - there was not enough time, why was Fab with her - just a coincidence, they were talking business. Eliesa has an answer for everything, Leo is not buying anything. Maybe she thinks it’s normal to do business at that time of night,  but he doesn’t (good point). And the guy wouldn’t even take his money, who does that? (another good point). He’s not all that modern, all that cool, he’s just a cop trying to do his job. Eliesa accuses him of being jealous again, Leo thinks that she’s only buying time before a definitive break up. She’s unhappy with everything that he does and honestly, he’s really starting to dislike the role he’s playing. (And the Patio peeps are holding their breath, hoping and praying that he doesn’t lose this new found rage). Eliesa says that the girls are OK, this is all that matters, and he can call her when he’s willing to listen and to understand blindly.

Just the facts, my friends. The cold is coming in and I don't like typing with gloves on. – Dashiell Hammett

Leo asked José Luis about the mysterious money in the bank. Neither of them would have been able to save that much money from their salaries. José Luis evaded his questions and accused him of trying to sully his reputation on the eve of of his promotion. The tirade he had been on two days previously made a strong comeback. He tried playing the Brother card. Finally he told him to bring charges or get out of his sight.Read more »

The Deconstruction Company

Elisa summons an eager Leo to her office, then flits around in her little hanky dress closing all the blinds. Alas for him, she plans to desecrate not the desk but his common sense. She repeats Majo's assertion that it was Cobra who ordered Marcelo's murder, then concludes that this lets Tio off the hook! Leo quickly progresses through the five stages of dealing with an airhead -- shock, disappointment, frustration, indulgence, and wishing he were somewhere else -- and finally comes up with an idea: Why don't we get Majo to lure him into a trap...?

Suddenly Fab blunders in without knocking and gives Leo the stink-eye. Elisa tries to get all girlboss and put him off until later, but he insists he has Very Important Papers. Leo takes his leave, and Elisa signs all the forms without reading them, because it's Telenovela Law. Fab assures her that transferring the galleries to an offshore shell company will totally solve all their problems. Then he sternly reminds her that Leo can't be trusted and she needs to slap him with a rolled-up newspaper every time he steps on the good carpet.

Majo and Clara's Glamping Chamber  

Now that they're slumber-party besties, Majo needs Clara to do her a favor: get her a pistol. Que que que? Where's she going to hide it in those ratty clothes? 

But Clara comes through, somehow persuading Leslie to nick one from her dad. Majo sticks it into her purse and makes a booty call to Dario. Gee, what could possibly go wrong?

Another Thursday Night production from RGV and Kirbo

The black sticky evil which is Dario and Ewww has finally ooozed all the way to Victoria. Like in some cheap horror movie where the living tar-like stuff comes in under doors, and through cracks and devours everything it touches.

Vic is still wettin’ her pants in the car with Scario. She asks “What are you going to do? Kill us? We don’t have what you want! Leave my family in peace!”

At Adri’s apartment, Leo and E-lies-a are cuddling and smooching. After they say their “I love yous” E-lies-a can’t stop thinking about how Leo keeps attacking her family. Leo asks her to just spit it out, he’s listening. E-lies-a wonders how Leo would feel if she turned the tables on him and started targeting his brother. Tapia was his brother’s boss, after all, and JL took direct orders from him…so JLuis might also be involved. Leo points out that his brother had several confrontations with his boss and he was even suspended. E-lies-a defends her uncle who has always been there for them…and saved her family’s company from bankruptcy (Puke! Puke! Barf!). Leo wonders if Ewww did it to cover up his illicit businesses, so E-lies-a turns it around once again and asks if his brother might have helped them to cover his own back. Leo reminds her that his bro risked his life to save her sister and wonders why she would want to associate him with Tapia. E-lies-a just wants Leo to understand her and put himself in her place. She sees that Leo is upset and points out that this is how he makes her feel when he attacks her family. Leo must think: Talk talk, you are thinking T-Mobile, I'm thinking Matress firm.
