The house is called “La Soledad”, which might be fitting enough for some of the souls who dwell within it.

Victoria isn’t exactly what you’d call “deep”, but she’s no pushover. She knows what she likes, and what she doesn’t. She certainly doesn’t like to be called Vicki, nor does she enjoy the company of Bobby, her brother’s chatterbox friend. She strives for ever more glamour and refinement, even deciding to change the name of her driver from Rocky to the more patrician “Morgan”.

In the previous segment we found Milagros and Gloria shaking it to un ritmo vallenato from Colombia’s Caribbean coast. Upon her return to the convent, Milagros is singing Ricky Maravilla’s "¿Que tendrá el petiso?" which probably got its inspiration from "Locas por el mambo", a huge 1950 Havana hit from the great Benny Moré.
