A MESSAGE FOR MY SON…

Ryan finds Alexander admiring a young nurse, and notes that he’s definitely ready to be sprung! He says he checked with the doctor and that he’ll be a free man tomorrow or the day after. Ryan holds out a gift box and grins that he couldn’t resist. Alexander opens it and laughs at the T-shirt, “I Went to Vegas and All I Got Was This Myocardial Infarction”. He agrees he’ll wear it proudly, and holds out a paper to Ryan; it’s a message for his son and he wants him to get it to him. Ryan reads it and asks if he’s sure he wants to send it to him? Alexander agrees, “As sure as anything I’ve been since the cursed day he was born.”

IT’S BEAUTIFUL!

In his cell, Michael speaks on a wireless phone and says that’s exactly what he wants, “She’ll never know what hit her—it’s beautiful. Let me know when it’s done.” The guard comes up and takes the phone from him, but Michael reminds him that he does have one call. The guard agrees he does have one, on the pay phone and asks how he got this? As Michael smirks that he has friends, Juan Pablo comes in and says he doubts that. Surprised, Michael asks who he is? Juan Pablo says he’s the last person he wants to see on Earth and Michael asks what it is that he can do to him? “Make you regret the day you were ever born,” is the answer.

“So, Zorro,” Michael asks, “You’re going to avenge the señoritas of Pine Valley, huh? Good luck!” Juan Pablo notes he’s not what he expected, “I’ve never seen a rapist alive!” When Cambias says he still hasn’t, Juan Pablo tells him an animal in the village near his home tried to do what he did, “He was killed very quickly!” Juan Pablo insists he must be sure he understands that he is never to go close to the women of Fusion ever again. Michael laughs that the women of Fusion are in his pocket now and anyplace else he’d like to put them, “I paid $500,000 for that pleasure.” Juan Pablo repeats that his business with them is over; the money has been repaid and he will not bother them again. Michael retorts, when Zorro took off his mask, he was a wimpy loser, “Well, don’t look now, Don Diego, but your mask is around your ankles—I have fused with Fusion, for good!” He concludes that Juan Pablo and his Fusion babes are playing in a league that doesn’t even come close to his and let his attorneys convince him he’s just been outplayed. Juan Pablo speaks in Spanish, a phrase that means ‘without shame’ and Michael asks what he has to be ashamed about? That he’s smarter and stronger than anyone else? Juan Pablo notes that being strong enough to overpower a woman is nothing to brag about. He grabs Michael when Cambias makes a derogatory remark and quietly says he has made very serious mistakes. The guard comes back and refuses to help the rapist when he tells him to get Juan Pablo off of him. Telling Michael they’re not finished, Juan Pablo releases his grip on Cambias and starts for the door. Michael shouts after him to tell his girlfriends he’s fantasizing about them, and all the fun they’re going to have!

I LOVE MY JOB!

Simone sighs that Juan Pablo is a gift from God, and Mia agrees they are so lucky he’s cutting Michael off at the knees. Simone goes on that Greenlee is even luckier as Greens comes up and asks Mia what the second part of their good news is? Told the publicity from the Sexiest Man contest is translating into sales, Greenlee agrees revenue has been steadily building since they kicked off the contest. Simone looks at pictures of the finalists and grins, “I love my job!” Greenlee warns that the bump in sales isn’t enough to cover what they owe the IRS—they need a miracle. Mia thinks the miracle found them, and wonders if they should throw a party to thank him? Kendall comes in and suggests they hold off on the offerings and tributes until they know that Michael is dead. “Dead?” Greenlee asks, “Juan Pablo is just paying back the $500,000 that Michael loaned us.”
