Who is Fatso Mogollon?

If I don't walk out of here without a deal, there's no deal.

What do you want, you wretch? To ruin my career?

She ruined our brand, our reputation!

No, that's not what happened. No one wanted to buy the line.

Your gargoyle is hideous, but she is efficient.

Selling V&M's line to a two-bit store isn't enough for you?

Beatriz did the right thing. Someone set us up.

So we should commend her for having our collection

end up at a two-bit store?

Please read it.

-A promissory note? -As the owner of BAR,

you're going to loan me the money.

I'm as sure about this, as I am about you.

Would you steal a kiss from her like you did when you were kids?

I found out one of your gargoyle's secrets.

She's madly in love.

Oh, yeah? Who's the victim?

You!

When she saw you kiss Marcela on camera back there...

-What? -Yeah!

She cried her eyes out.

No way! That's ridiculous.

Yes, Betty. You know her, the gargoyle.

Let's go have some drinks at the bar on 47th.

Betty isn't in love with me. Yeah, right!

Have you heard of a new show, "The Crying Gargoyle"?

Girls.

Hey, Berthica. How are you?

-It's so nice to see you. -What is it?

I really need your help. It's an emergency.

-What is it? -Listen to this.

Giovas, I just sent my location.

Mr. Smith didn't ask to meet at a café but at a hotel!

But...

Why is Aura Maria at a hotel?

Trouble seems to follow her wherever she goes.

Your boss asked her to meet him there to "talk"

about what they could do so she could keep her job.

Shameless old coot!

No wonder he doused himself in cologne before leaving.

Mr. Armando said Aura Maria wasn't to be fired.

That bastard!

So he knew beforehand she wasn't being fired?

Of course!

Come on, Bertha! It couldn't be more obvious.

He wants to... We have to help her!

If I could, I'd call Yolanda Smith to tell her about it.

Mrs. Smith is very jealous.

I'd call and tell her where to find her husband.

If you could? Why don't you?

If I did, I'd lose my job.

However, if someone who doesn't work at V&M

were to stop by my desk

and they happened to stumble upon the company's directory

which includes Mrs. Smith's number,

and called her to tell her where her husband is,

that'd be something else. Know what I mean?

No.

Oh, OK. I'll say it again.

You don't work at V&M.

You work for the building management.

Right.

This is the company's directory,

and there's Mrs. Yolanda Smith's number.

My boss' wife. Mr. Smith.

I'm going to the restroom.

Oh, got it.

Got it. You go to the restroom and...

You're so dense.

Sweetie, I'm so glad you're here.

-Hi. -I need to talk to you.

Let's talk now while Dad's out on an errand.

Having him home 24/7 is driving me crazy!

It's awful! He's constantly meddling.

Oh, Mom. He's just trying to help.

Yes, but he isn't. He's a burden!

He tried to change the kitchen faucet and made a mess.

Then he tried to teach me how to make mole

because he saw the recipe online.

He was giving me instructions. No, no, no.

I finally caught a break when he went to talk to Nicolas.

Betty, I know you have a lot on your mind,

but for the love of God, find your father a job.

I know this isn't Manhattan's best and finest,

but it is discreet.

No one will bother us here.

What's your favorite drink?

I don't want a drink, thank you.

After the day we've had?

Don't worry.

Thanks.

Mr. Smith, has my fate at V&M been decided?

Why did you attack Ms. Fernandez?

I swear it won't happen again.

Mr. Smith, my salary provides for my son and me.

I can't lose my job. Please!

You said you could help.

We'll see what can be done.

After all, I'm V&M's HR Manager.

I'll help you out.

Thank you.

It'll be my pleasure.

You have no idea how much we care about our employees.

Raymond Smith, what are you doing here with that woman?

All done.

Laura and George just texted saying they loved the interview.

It seems we looked very good.

-You looked very good. -Give it back!

We said we'd disconnect and get away from our phones.

Give it back. I've learned my lesson.

Oh, all right.

What if your secretary decides to sell V&M?

I wanted to make the guest list for the wedding tonight.

I know you.

I'm sure the guest list was done years ago.

Only my guests. I still need yours.

-Mine? -Yes.

Betty's my only guest.

-Excuse you? -I'm kidding.

I'll have Betty and my parents there.

-Stop. -It's not funny.

Last time I checked, this isn't V&M.

Who are you?

I work at V&M, ma'am.

Really?

You're flirting with your coworkers now?

Listen... Don't talk to me in English!

Listen very closely!

Hell will freeze over before I let you cheat on me.

And you... stay away from my husband!

That's my man!

This was a work-related meeting.

Oh, she thinks she can fool me.

Listen... We're going home!

You have no idea what you're in for!

Shut up!

I told you. I told you it was a lost cause.

But you decided to devote all of your time to Mr. Armando.

So what do we have now?

I poorly budgeted for an inflationary bubble.

Thank goodness you've finally seen the light!

I know, Nico. It still hurts, though.

I don't know why we fall for people we shouldn't.

We?

No, Betty. I'm not like you.

Don't include me with the rest.

-Nicolas. -Hmm?

So you're not madly in love with Patricia Fernandez?

I have a chance with her.

And you know what else? I'll prove it.

Give me a little bit of time and a few million,

and I'll show you.

I hope so.

Yeah, I need to get over Mr. Armando.

Start by throwing away the shoe you keep in your pink box.

It's unsanitary, Betty.

It's bad for your health and your heart.

Throw it away.

I can't pay for that bottle. Plus, I didn't drink any of it.

I don't have the money to pay for it.

Please tell me he didn't hurt you.

Giovas! What are you doing here?

What do you mean? I'm looking after my princess.

Where's Smith?

His wife dragged him out of here.

That horrible woman came here and made a scene.

She thought we were up to something shady

-and she dragged him out. -Great! I guess my plan worked.

What plan?

Leave, bud.

Go!

Well, in my quest to secure your physical

and emotional integrity, I dared to call Mrs. Yolanda

and told her her husband had asked you to meet him here.

I feel awful.

I've sunk so low in order to keep my job.

Also, Mr. Smith left without paying the bill.

Can you pay this?

Don't try and stop me!

I don't plan on staying!

I won't stay with a man who's unfaithful,

who gives in to his lowly desires and has terrible taste.

I wouldn't stay even if you got on your knees and begged.

It's OK. I understand.

I'm sorry it ended this way.

Well? Aren't you going to do something?

No.

I can't change the past, and you've made up your mind.

Or do you doubt your decision?

No! I obviously don't!

I wouldn't stay here even if you asked me to marry you!

Don't bother!

I wasn't going to.

See you tomorrow at V&M. I wish you the very best.

You are a jerk!

What was I thinking? I don't want to marry you!

That's something we can both agree on.

I wouldn't marry a man like me, either.

There, there.

Don't cry. There's no reason to be sad.

You're breaking my heart.

Besides, I bring you good news.

You do?

You're not going to be fired.

-Really? -You heard right.

Mr. Armando is going to let it slide this time.

You, Ricardo, and Patricia will be reprimanded,

but you get to stay at V&M.

Really?

That's great news!

You see?

Your guardian angel is always watching over you

so everything goes your way.

Yes.

And you're that angel.

Thank you for always being around when I need you.

Well...

You promised you would, Betty.

No more Mr. Armando.

Now, we'll proceed to get rid of these mementos.

I'll help you.

-Everything? -Everything.

Throw away the box, too.

Bravo, Betty.

I'm very proud of you.

Well, I'm off. See you tomorrow.

I have to rest in order to keep making millions.

Thank you, Giovas. You shouldn't have.

Oh, please. It's a pleasure for yours truly.

Especially when this flower comes with an invitation.

A new Venezuelan arepas joint opened up.

And it's worthy of a princess like you.

Why don't we stop by after work and then we stop by your house?

It's about time I meet your family.

Come here.

No!

-We're at work! -Yeah, yeah.

Last night, we got caught up, and we let ourselves go.

Don't get it twisted, though. You know we're just friends.

But... How come?

You kissed me. What was that about?

Well, I don't know.

I'm just not ready for a serious relationship.

Oh, the phone.

Yes?

How is Manhattan's hottest girl doing?

Peter? Are you in the city?

Yes, and tonight we're going to party.

I need you to find me a friend that's just as cute as you.

I'm here with a friend, and if I don't find him a date,

I can't go out.

Don't worry, the girls at work are very pretty.

I'll bring one of my friends.

I'm so excited! See you tonight!

Tonight we party!

Yes!

Well? Tell me, what do you think?

What do you think of the apartment?

Your new apartment is beautiful.

-I want your honest opinion. -It's so nice, Hugo.

Does it give you a good vibe? What do you think?

You know all about that stuff.

You never mentioned you were looking for a new place.

I had to. The family's growing.

It's a three-bedroom apartment.

The master bedroom will be occupied by Fabi and me.

I'll turn the other bedroom into my studio.

And the third bedroom, Ines...

The third bedroom will be for the children.

Good morning, Aura Maria.

I hope there are no hard feelings between us.

-Are there? -There aren't.

We're adults, right?

Two adults who agreed to sleep together.

There's something I want you to know.

I really like you,

but unfortunately I'm not the right man for you.

I just want to have fun, no strings attached.

All right.

That's settled.

Friends?

No, we're coworkers.

You pump it three times

and the pump sends the poison through the hose

and then you spray.

No, I didn't come here to learn how to kill critters.

They are living things.

Besides, in France they are known as non-human beings.

Roaches, like all other pests, need to be controlled.

Yes, but you're putting my life in danger.

What if I swallow some pesticide?

What happens then? Oh, my gosh!

First of all, you wouldn't swallow it.

Secondly, that's what the uniform is for.

It protects you.

You want me to wear your ex's uniform?

What's the big deal? It fits you.

You say you love me, but why do you say that, lovebug?

Because I love you, lovebug.

I'd love it if we could work together.

We'd be together all day like two lovebugs.

I am very delicate, "phisticated" and elegant.

Babe, I should work as a model.

I've spent my life doing what any respectable model does.

I can't waste my time killing roaches.

I'm sorry, but nope.

I knew it!

I knew that as soon as I let my guard down,

you'd stab me in the back.

You promised the best of the best,

but I only have one fit model.

And all because of your austerity policy.

See it as a challenge!

I promise to give you the models and everything you want

on the day you present the new collection.

Where'd you get the bright idea of cutting back on everything?

I should've known.

Bravo! Congratulations, girl.

You've sent the fashion world back ten years.

Why? Because you're cheap.

Hugo, don't mess with Betty.

If you have any complaints, come to me.

Believe me, I find both of you very aggravating.

Next you'll ask me to use her as my model.

Should I have her model a burka?

I don't think it's funny.

I'm keeping my end of the deal.

Now, you have to keeps yours.

Deliver this new collection and you'll have the models

and whatever else you want. You can't now, though.

Congratulations, Armando Mendoza.

Congratulations, really.

You sucked me into your web, but I'll remember this.

And I'll make you pay for everything!

And you too... girl.

And you too.

Even if you can teleport. I don't know how she does it.

Believe me, years will go by, maybe decades,

before I call you Armie again.

"The new austerity policies will go into effect tomorrow.

We'll use less paper, plastic,

and all non eco-friendly materials.

We are to consume less coffee and bottled water.

If further action must be taken down the line,

you will be notified.

Thank you for your support,

Armando Mendoza, President of V&M."

What do you make of that, girls?

If they're taking the water away, then things must be bad.

Betty, is the company doing so poorly?

No, this is a temporary situation we hope

will be settled soon.

Hold on. Let me see if I got this right.

They're not cutting our wages, right?

No! No, no!

Don't worry. That won't happen.

Mr. Armando implemented an austerity policy

so he wouldn't have to cut your wages.

OK.

We're choosing to believe you, Betty.

Just promise this won't last forever.

I promise.

If it makes you feel any better,

Mr. Armando decided executives should also abide by the rules

and not just us.

A single model.

One model for my entire collection.

Don't talk to that toad, Ines. She's evil.

No, Betty isn't evil, Hugo. She's just following orders.

So you're on her side?

Be careful, Ines.

Remember, you're on Team Lombardi.

Yes, but she's only trying to help the company.

That's just an act!

She started here as a secretary

and now she's an executive assistant.

She ruined my runway show,

sold my collection to a flea market owner and now this.

No, that repugnant and disgusting thing

wants to destroy V&M. And she's succeeding.

Can I have a Mr. Armando of your time, minute?

-What? -Sorry.

When I'm nervous, my dyslexia acts up.

You can talk to me. What is it, Betty?

Guess what.

Now what?

BAR Fashion is making money.

What? Really, Betty?

Because of that, we should hire an accountant.

Nicolas and I can't handle it.

Really?

Do you know anyone who's trustworthy?

My... my dad's an accountant and he's unemployed.

Don't worry. He won't overcharge.

His fees won't break the bank.

If you believe he'll be discreet

and won't ask too many questions,

I trust your judgment.

Please don't tell him I gave you a promissory note.

Don't tell him anything about the company.

We'll keep that to ourselves.

To ourselves.

It'll be our secret.

Yes. Our secret.

Don't tell Nicolas either. Don't tell anyone anything.

It stays between you and me.

OK. Yes.

Excuse me.

Just us.

Hi, Patricia.

Hi.

Oh, I hate you!

But you won't break me.

I won't shed a single tear over you.

No, I don't have any plans for tonight. Why?

I'll show you, Ricardo Calderon.

You'll pay for what you did.

You have no idea what it means to break my heart.

It's risky business.

You're going to give me what?

What?

Something only women wear? You're making me blush!

You're pathetic, Patricia.

Universe, I call out to you.

I mean, please! I've had enough.

Send me the man of my dreams.

Marianita, would you like to go out clubbing with me tonight?

You know I don't go out during the week.

Wait, wait.

You really want to go out after what happened last night?

Do you ever learn?

I need to get rid of the bad juju.

I can do that dancing.

So who's going to watch your son?

My mom. She always watches him.

So who's in?

I pass.

I have to train.

My husband's sick with a cold.

So none of you are in?

Why don't you ask Betty? Maybe she'll want to go.

My date is bringing a friend

and I told him all of the girls at work were pretty.

-Where's the salt? -I have a packet here.

-Hey! -Excuse me.

I heard you're cheating Hugo again

and that he can only use one model.

No, I'm not cheating anyone.

You're cheating him, though.

Listen, you're playing with fire, Betty.

And you aren't?

Aren't you ashamed? You're going to marry Hugo,

but I saw you in the copy room.

Here's what's going to happen if anyone finds out about that:

The troubles you've had with Hugo, Patricia, and your bosses

will be nothing compared to the trouble you'll be in then.

You don't know me, cutie.

I've ruined the careers of women who are far more talented

and ambitious than you.

Hello, hello!

What's wrong? Why are you so serious?

Is something wrong?

No.

No, no. Not at all.

I was just telling Betty that her perfume smells great.

Excuse me.

Betty, tell me what you two were talking about.

Nothing, Ines.

Nothing?

Betty, I'm not particularly fond of Fabio.

I love Hugo very much, but I don't want him to marry Fabio.

Now tell me, should I worry?

Ines, why are you asking me that?

In order to help you and Hugo, I need to know what's going on.

Something is obviously going on, isn't it?

Uh-huh.

I accidentally walked in...

on Mr. Fabio kissing a girl in the copy room.

I knew it! That bastard!

Please don't tell Mr. Hugo. Above all, don't say I saw it.

He'd never believe me.

Come on!

Give it up!

Yeah, yeah! Give it up!

Go, team! Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Come on!

You can do it!

Corner him.

Come on!

You son of a...

Don't do that!

Yes, yes! Easy, easy.

Come on.

Easy now, like you're doing ballet.

Oh! Sorry!

Hey! What are you doing here?

I couldn't miss the best game in the world.

Is Efrain here with you? Where is he?

-Efrain? -Yes.

-Where is he? -No, I'm not here with Efrain.

I figured he wouldn't miss the game since he paid the fees.

Yes, it's just that... Yes, he paid the fees.

He had a lot of work so he sent me instead.

Well, I'm glad you're here. They always need more fans.

Come on!

Betty, say you will.

This is the perfect chance for us to have fun.

That way, I'll forget about that idiot Ricardo.

I'd love to, but I have to wake up early tomorrow

and I still have so much work left to do.

Betty, please.

I know you interceded on my behalf yesterday

and I want to thank you by taking out.

I want us to have fun and go out dancing.

You don't have to thank me.

I would've done it for any of you.

But I want to!

Betty, girlfriends should go out together with hot men.

Like my friends.

There's one for you and one for me.

No. I can't.

Don't ruin my plans.

My friend said he'd cancel

if I couldn't get his friend a date.

Help me.

A guy like that will never like you, Betty.

Mr. Armando is only going to hurt you and I don't want to see you cry.

I promise I won't let this escalate.

OK.

I'll get over Mr. Armando.

All right.

I'll go with you.

Let me call home to tell them I'm getting in late

and then we can go party.

Ines, are you done with the pins?

Yes. Coming.

What's wrong?

You've been distracted all day. What's the matter?

Nothing.

It's something that's none of my business.

You have to tell me now.

Go on. Men, isn't it?

Your heart is torn between two gentlemen.

I know you, you heartbreaker!

No, Huguito.

It's something that affects you.

Me?

I don't know if I should meddle...

Hello!

-Fabi. -Traffic is horrendous.

There were no taxis available.

I'm so glad you're here.

Ines was about to tell me something...

that's important to me.

What is it?

Oh, Hugui! All right, I'll say it.

Royal blue is going to be a trend this spring.

I knew it!

-Blue... -Blue!

You know what?

I'll tell McCartney.

I'll tell her lemon yellow is going to be in next season.

Let's see what she has to say about that.

Let's see.

No, don't.

I can't apply your makeup if you're wearing glasses.

Don't bother. There's no fixing me.

Betty, every woman has her charm.

Yeah, but not me.

At least me do your hair.

-No, no. -But...

I've always done my hair like this.

Maybe you can try a new look.

You might discover a Betty you love.

No, thank you.

I like this Betty, even if no one else does.

Hey... did you tell your friend what I look like?

No. Why?

When he gets one look at me, he'll never talk to you again.

Betty, you need to stop being so self-deprecating.

I'm sure there's a guy out there who'll love you as you are.

But you need to believe it first and show off some skin.

No!

If I show off anything else, I'll scare them off.

OK. All right, let's go.

I don't want to be late.

Efrain, we won!

Right.

Now I know why you couldn't make it to your sons' game.

You're on a special pest control assignment.

Do you need a hand?

Sofia! What are you doing here?

Relax!

You wouldn't want to have a heart attack.

You know what?

Next time you come near me, you'll end up in jail.

What are you doing here?

What do you mean?

I came to show you the trophy your sons won, darling.

And to thank you for paying their soccer class fees.

You paid for their soccer,

but couldn't give me money for my pole dancing class?

What?

-I didn't. -You didn't pay their fees?

-I didn't. -The classes were paid for.

If you didn't pay them, then who did?

I can't believe you. Don't you care about my needs?

You're all like, "Here, spend all of our money."

Our money?

I'll show you some marital assets!

Pedro!

Hey!

You look so handsome.

Did you forget about me? It's been so long.

No way. I can't stop thinking about you.

This is Jaime.

-Hi, Jaime. -Charmed.

-Do I know you? -Not yet.

Where's your friend?

How'd you miss her? This is Betty.

I didn't bring just anyone.

She's the company's executive assistant.

She's also very fun. She loves to dance.

I get the feeling we're going to have a blast today.

Could you give us a minute?

You can have two.

Are you two going to gossip?

-Hold up. -What is it?

What's going on? Are you making fun of me?

You're getting back at me for what happened in Pennsylvania.

Not at all.

I didn't know she was bringing that thing.

Oh, yeah? We'll, I'm out.

Where are you going? You can't leave me here alone.

You're going to ruin my date with Aura Maria.

-Oh, yeah? -I'll pay tonight's bill.

Please, just don't leave.

All right! I'll stay.

But just so you know, it's going to be a hefty bill.

You should sue Aurita for lying.

Quit gossiping, you two.

Are you ready?

I'm dying to get on the dance floor.

Thank you!

So...

So what do you do?

Are you studying? Do you work?

Are you an athlete?

I'm a driver.

That's a great job.

Unions and drivers have had a 33% increase this semester.

Yeah.

Are you single?

Married?

On the prowl?

I'm getting married next week.

Congratulations!

Thank you.

Do you like... this song? It's good.

Yes, I love it. It's great.

I do, too.

You know, I'm gonna go get a drink.

OK. I want some rompope.

Betty!

Betty!

Where are you going?

Home. I've humiliated myself enough for today.

I'm sorry.

I didn't know Jaime would turn out to be a jerk.

You can stay and dance with us.

He's not a jerk. He has great taste.

I should go home.

I don't go out so I won't scare people.

Betty, don't say that.

You're beautiful, too.

See you at V&M.

OK.

Coming, Pedro!

Hi, sweetie! How'd it go?

Amazing!

I met a kind, intelligent, and well-mannered guy.

He asked for my number, and he's going to ask me out.

-Really? -No.

Oh, honey.

Don't worry, you'll find the right one.

Did you talk to your boss about your dad?

Yes, and I think we'll be able to do it.

Thank you, St. Jude!

I'm going to light another candle to thank him.

Name?

Jenny Wendy Reyes. I'm here to model for V&M.

Are you sure?

Something smells fishy to me here, Betty.

No, Dad. This is all very legal.

If it were, I'd have an office.

No company with such capital

opens an office in the bedroom of a house in Jackson Heights.

Mr. Armando wanted it to be this way

until we establish ourselves.

He wants to save money and keep a low profile.

Are you sure, Betty?

Or is this the doing of your coworker,

the one who was offered a commission?

Inesita...

What the hell are you doing here?

Oh, that's simple.

I'm here to be a model.

What?

Are you crazy?

-No. -Listen up.

You stole my husband,

you're spending my family's money,

and now you're trying to take my job

and come into my place of employment?

I won't allow it. Get out!

-Don't touch me! -Get out!

Shut up!

We can go somewhere more private.

What do you say?

I know the designer. I can lend a hand.

Or two.

Fabio!

What's the meaning of this?

Do you like it?

Yes.

Is this in the new collection?

Oh, you're so sweet.

No, the new collection is ready.

I kept my word, and now you have to keep yours.

My word? I wanted to talk...

Don't.

I did my part, and now you'll do yours.

My bachelor party is today.

I want to go into the venue with you by my side

dressed as a drag queen.

-What? -Don't worry.

I tailored the dress to you.

It'll come in at your waist perfectly,

and you'll love how it highlights your feminine traits.

Feminine traits? Look who's talking.

Don't you have something less flashy?

Less flashy? Something like your suit?

The horror!

Armie, dressing as a drag queen commands so much attention.

Today, the world will see an Armando it's never seen before.

Tonight will be unforgettable...

Armanda.
