	Episode #01 -With Tomas' water heater on the fritz, a shower at Carlos & Purita's place turns Novela-esque, Juan keeps Purita's mom at bay and Jack tries to keep the show going while fighting bill collectors.



	Episode #02 -Carlos is still mad at Juan over the "Dolores Fiasco" (yet to be revealed) - and Purita is still pissed at Carlos, but everything comes to a halt when Tomas announces he's going hetero.



	Episode #03 -Carlos seeks writing inspiration at a healthfood store, while Juan tries to help "unblock" him, by stealing back his dolls, er... "Action Figures" from Purita.



	Episode #04 -Tomas & Carlos take their impromptu dates to an art gallery to disastrous results. It's a short one, no Jack or Juan here. Funny as usual though. ¡Chiquito pero Jugeton!



	Episode #05 -Jack visits a botantica on Juan's Santero's advice. Meanwhile Carlos has Ayahuasca revelations with a priestess and Juan gets a special brand of therapy, in the mini-season cliffhanger.



	Episode #06 -Juan's in love. Only his crush, Ana, likes Jack. Things turn novela-esque when they stop at the Cheetah Club for a quick drink. Un-oh.



	Episode #07 -Jack & Juan are still at odds over Ana - and Jack's willing to walk away -it's just that Ana might not let him.
