Caray, Caray!

HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY, CARAY CARAY!

Here's the sorpresa I told you guys last year:

Since Telemundo decided a few years ago to stop the TuMundo Awards, I thought that it would be a good idea to make the Caray Caray Awards, both for Telemundo and Univisión.

I figured I'd be great to have our own awards in our lovely community!

Paz and Mireya talk on the phone, with Ginebra and Mauro listening. Mauro shows himself to Mireya and grabs her arm. Is she spying on him, what does she truly want?

He manhandles her a little, she admits she has been following him because she suspects… he’s married and is only playing with her.

I’m impressed, this woman can think on her feet!

She plans to leave, but he grabs her again. She starts talking about her ex cheating and then abandoning her, no other man will ever do that to her. His strange phone calls, he never wants to share details about his life, she needs to know he isn’t hiding anything. Mauro says he’s a free man, but what he finds odd is the fact that she’d be so curious about his life. Mireya says it’s because she likes him and she can’t stop thinking about him. And she goes in for a passionate, “my life is depending on it” kiss. Which is great, because her life is actually depending on her managing to fool Mauro.

Paz and Esteban kiss it up some more and decide it's time to call each other "tu." (Was it the limpid pool or the shotgun? Certain aspects of Spanish grammar are still opaque to me.) She surprises him on the way home with some soil samples she collected in tiny bottles she always carries with her. He is charmed but manages to keep his hands on the wheel, to everyone's relief. 

Mauro grills Abdul for intel on the dondeabouts of Mysterious Hospital Kid. He reminds him that they can't rely on their usual contacts, because it might get back to Ginebra. 

Meanwhile, the devil in a leather dress returns to the manse with her strategic gifts: a model car for Eder, a necklace for Gala, and for Bosco, a copy of "Catcher in the Rye." His favorite book! Who could have guessed? (Um, everyone?) She compliments Gala's podcast and says she'd like to be on it some time. Elvira reminds Gala that the camera adds ten pounds -- to your face. Gee, thanks, yaya.

 Girls gone wild

Vermin installed an intercom system for the house. This way they can control better who visits, like that Vila de Cortez guy. Lupita is checking it out.

At the same time Mireya is outside with Nandy, asking her for a change of clothes – her family can’t know about her walk of shame. Nandy doesn’t get it, so Mireya explains this has to do with Paz’s plan. As she keeps talking, Lupita is listening on the intercom, hearing their voices. I don’t get how this is happening, since nobody actually called. Telenovela technology.

Lupita hears Mireya confess to Nandy that she spent the night with Mauro Nicoliti, Ginebra’s brother. She is about to get the patatus, as Mireya further explains that she spent all night investigating (it’s that what we call it now?). Nandy is rightfully reluctant to believe this, so Mireya adds that she overheard him on the phone, saying that Ginebra can’t know Samara is still alive. He is lying to his sister! The horror!

Paz kisses Esteban with gusto for 45 minutes, then pulls back and lists all the reasons their amor is imposible. (Fill in your own telenovela trope here.) He reels her back in for another 45, then suggests they have two paths: forget it ever happened and go back to where they were, or continue on the difficult and rocky road full of chutes and ladders and trolls and stuff to the big payoff. Happily, she opts for lengthier-but-more-scenic route #2. But it has to be a Big Secret from everyone who hasn't looked out their window in the past hour and a half, okey?

As they are waltzing back from the Yogurt Happy Place, Gala mentions to Salo that they caught that Rubio guy who killed her mother. Que que que??? Does she have a picture? Of course -- doesn't everyone carry a picture of their mom's murderer on their cell phone? Salo recognizes our favorite fall guy villain and hustles his girl back to the house to share that hot dropped knowledge with the rest of the family.

As they round the corner, Paz and Esteban jump apart like someone shined a flashlight into the back seat of the Buick, but the teenagers don't notice, because they're teenagers. They all compare notes on Rubio's real and purported crimes: extortion, loan-sharking, sexual and general-purpose assault, murder, mayhem, kidnapping, hiding Jimmy Hoffa's body, and showing up to a corporate briefing without a press pass. Did I miss anything? Rubio would probably be really impressed with his own criminal mastermindedness if his career weren't essentially over.

Lupita and a tank top wearing, muscle showing Esteban are in the garden talking about Paz being the first woman he ever noticed since Berenice’s death. He had to be strong for his kids and Lupita totally understands, she had to take care of her children alone, too. And she’s sure their loved ones are watching over them from the sky, wishing for them to be happy.

Lupita mentions how much Paz has been suffering because of the loss of her daughter. She’d want nothing more than for her to find a good man. Esteban agrees, but he’d rather ask her how she feels first. Their road to finding love together won’t be an easy one. And he knows they might look incompatible, but he has humble origins, too. Lupita is a bit worried, because he’s now rich and what about his kids and his suegra?

They hold hands and Esteban promises to protect Paz no matter what.

Vermin got out thanks to his disguise. Paz and Mireya trapped the doctor in the room and explained that the janitor was her ex in disguise and she did not know of his plan. Despite that this was going to violate her professional ethics, the doctor agreed to let them get away but with a warning that the police would be involved sooner or later. Pepa called Paz to update them as to their movements as a little Mission Impossible music accompanied Vermin's escape to the exit. He quickly texted Salomón. He and Pepa then staged a fight on the ground floor to distract others while Paz and Mireya ran out to the taxi cab that Vermin had driven in. Two guards separated the brothers – who were shouting as loudly possible – and dragged them to the exit.

The doctor took a deep breath called for a red alert for a child gone missing. [Rats!]

We get the usual repeat of the last scene of the previous episode. Our protas look like they're going for a kiss, but Paz bails out last minute and they say that it's getting late. Damn it!

Ginebra is having a shower and is thinking about Esteban. She then imagines Esteban being in the shower with her... Yikes. She says something about not having feelings for him(?).

Elvira is still wondering who knows about Ginebra. She mentions that her dad told her her daughter's father is dead. This is a telenovela. How many chances are there that he IS dead? Fobo says that it would be a privilege if she lets him accompany her for the rest of his existence. Elvira gets colder than usual (and that's saying something).
