The game of brisca uses 40 cards known as the “Spanish deck.” One aspect of play involves using body language to reveal your hand to your partner. This is why the gentleman says “we blink an eye and we do like this…” He is making a joke about this body language/cards relationship when he says “your head aches when you have the ace of oros.”

The feisty Sevillian María La Mala Rodriquez talks about her career as a Spanish hip-hop artist. True to her “southern” roots, she often drops her “s” sounds, the way Carolina mentions in her clip on the various accents of Spain.

Her name is Milagros- her nickname, “Cholito”. She’s wild on the soccer field, and not much tamer off of it. An orphan, she was brought up in a convent. But now she’s almost 18, and she will have to make her own way in the world. The world might not be quite ready…

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”.

Patricia talks about ways to stay active in Coro, Venezuela, patrimonio cultural de la humanidad. She enjoys the gym and classes in Tae Bo, an exercise phenomenon that seems to know no political boundaries. She also enjoys going out on Friday nights with friends to the local disco. As far as boys go, it seems a young man named Leopaldo is winning the race to her heart…

Medical student Patricia Martí tells us about the study she is conducting in the village of Adícora. The study is a look at the incidence of skin problems caused by sun exposure in this town where many people work outdoors, including quite a few fishermen.

Patricia will soon be a full-fledged doctor of medicine, but first she must complete the internship she is doing in the rural Venezuelan community of Charaima, on the Peninsula de Paraguaná. She tells us a little bit about the road she’s travelled to get to this point in her academic career.

In a time of pretty sharp political divide in Venezuela, Patricia, gives a frank middle-of-the-road explanation of the current political climate and her place in the country’s politics as apolitica.

We all know that little boys always pull the pigtails of the girls they like, and likewise little girls like to punch and annoy the boys they like, but do big kids also play rough with their secret crushes? If so, Mauro might be right in thinking that Violeta will be his some day… or maybe she really does despise him? At least she didn’t let go! Watch and find out what we mean…

Mauro fired Juan from the record store. But why does his sister care? Sergio wants a chance to explain things to his wife Dolores, but why doesn’t she want to hear it? Tune in and let’s try to figure it all out.

Juan and Violeta’s mom overhears them talking, and finds out that Juan has been fired. She doesn’t take the news well. Meanwhile Dolores continues to tell Sofi about the line Sergio has been feeding her.

It turns out that Tere wants to learn the piano, just like grandma. Or could it be she just wants an excuse to be with Juan? Mani stops by Amalia’s kiosk but forgets his Oreos on the way out.

You know, it’s never the drummer or the bassist that gets the big ego, it’s usually el cantante. In this case one is about to ruin Viole’s big opening party by refusing to play on a small stage. Is this Juan’s big chance for rock and roll stardom, or is he better off sticking to his new job as plomo (roadie)?
