"My props are all in the wrong place!"
Time is running out like woah! Two weeks. Two weeks. I am starting to FREAK OUT completely, because I'm convinced I've forgotten something important. It's probably nothing, though, but tell that to my brain which has decided to over process absolutely everything.
Anyway.
Season 16 of Hospital Central. I don't even want to think about not being able to use BitTorrent (*sob*) in a few weeks, because I need my weekly hospital drama fix so badly whenever the show's on. So, I'll just enjoy all this while I still can. Indeed, Season 16. Oh boy.
Okay, I'm extremely shallow. Just in case someone hadn't picked up on that yet. How do I know this? Because my first thoughts about this episode were the following:
1. Maca still has her bike! Hotness by default!
Hothothothot.
Dear writers,
Could we see Maca actually ride her bike? In leather? With a scene of her taking off the helmet and whipping her hair like a Maxim model? Pretty please with a cherry on top?
Love,
Me
2. Maca looks insanely gorgeous in this episode.
And the previews for next week? Oh, yeah. It'll be 80 minutes of hair!porn.
3. Vero doesn't look too bad either.
Indeed.
So, in conclusion, I'm pathetically shallow.
Right, Maca & Vero broke up (I did not see that coming!), and Maca's been in a rather depressive state for the first three episodes of the season. But even after the break up, the love triangle from hell still looms about.
Esther: Okay, what's up? Are you tired?
Maca: Well, yeah. Truth be told, I didn't sleep a wink last night.
Esther: Are you sure that's it?
Maca: [puts a hand on Esther's] Yeah, I'm sure.
Esther: [sits down] Right. You know that if you need anything, I'm here, right?
Maca: *bolts*
Maca's reaction is actually almost comical.
This particular plot then leads to one of the most awkward scenes ever between Vero & Esther. At least, for some reason, I find it really uncomfortable to watch.
Vero: Do you think Maca's fine?
Esther: No. She's seemed down lately.
Vero: Yeah, I've noticed the same. [...]
Esther: Look, I'm sorry for asking this, but...have you two thought about...?
Vero: About...?
Esther: About getting back together.
Vero: No. No, no, no, no. Well, no. At the moment, no. [awkward silence] You?
Esther: Nope.
[they start walking again]
Vero: [Maca] has to prove to the whole world that she's a superwoman.
Esther: Yeah. It takes a lot for her to realise that she also needs help herself.
Vero: Do you think she'd get terribly mad if we told Carlos to have a word with her?
Esther: Most definitely.
Ha! So true.
[...]
Esther: Hey...another question. Are you still...in love with her?
Vero: [blinks] Man, I...prefer not to answer that. [another pregnant pause] And you?
Esther: [smiles] I also prefer not to answer.
So weird and awkward and weird that I want to crawl under a bed in fright.
I seriously need to reduce my caffeine intake.
Right. So Carlos approaches Maca when she's heading home, and we get the usual psychology babble (Are you sad? Are you stressed? Do you cry without reason? Why is one of my boobs bigger than the other?).
Carlos: Do you feel alone? [pause] Maca? Do you feel alone?
Maca: [is on the verge of giving in, but then changes her mind] Thanks for the coffee, Carlos.
This storyline can either end really well or really poorly.
Unrelated, but you know what bugs me? Maca is Pedro's biological mother, so why is he living with Esther? Sure, Maca works a lot and Esther has Patricia anyway, but it's still strange that Pedro isn't with Maca.
Unsurprisingly, the more lighthearted & comedic material is, once again, brought to us by Teresa. She never fails to bring on the lulz.
Teresa needs to have her appendix taken out, but she isn't at all happy when she finds out that Fernando will be operating on her.
Lola: Teresa, do you have a problem with Fernando?
Teresa: No! [whispers] It's just that, it's embarrassing that he'll see me naked.
Lola: *blinks*
Due to schedule changes, the honour of being the operating doctor goes to Rai. But Teresa doesn't budge, and Rai then has to tell the chief. Cue to highly amused facial expressions á la Maca:
Rai: Teresa doesn't want me to operate on her.
Maca: How come?
Rai: Because she doesn't want me to see her naked.
Maca: [incredulous] Are you serious?
Rai: Yep.
Maca: [snorts] I can't believe this. Well, actually I can believe this, yeah.
Perfect 'Bitch, are you for real?' expression from Maca.
But oh. Sometimes this show makes me cry like a baby. Lola, one of my favourite characters, was diagnosed with terminal cancer in last week's episode and given three months to live. I wanted to throw things after watching that.
Anyway, although I ship Lola & Rai like crazy, I can't help shipping Lola with Monica just a little bit, because these two would be so fantastic together. ♥ And the subtext is ridiculously obvious.
Monica's the first person Lola tells about her illness, and it's sad and heartbreaking and totally femslashy.
And things get ever better (read: unbelievably gay) later on when Lola tells Monica all the things she wants to do before she dies. She wants to see the mountains again etc., but then finishes with the following:
Lola: [leaning towards Monica] And I want to have a great love affair. One that lasts forever.
Monica: Does eternal love exist?
Lola: When you have as little time left as me, yes.
Monica: [mouths] Mi amor.
Yes, she truly does call Lola her love. And although I know Lola's talking about Rai (which is truly squee-worthy as well), in this scene I like to pretend that she's talking about someone else entirely. *sniff*
This show will be the death of me.
Speaking of TV shows of utter superiority, Antena3 will start airing Season 5 of Los Hombres de Paco next week (17th). More Pepa/Silvia? Yes, please! And while you're counting down the minutes, check out this interview with Marián Aguilera. Awkward cuteness personified.
And now, have some bloopers y'all (segues are overrated anyway):

This is hysterical! I was in stitches all the way through.
"Just tell them, you know, that I'm pregnant. Maybe they'll cut me some snack."
"Sign it!!!"
"My props are all in the wrong place!"
Here endeth the ramble.
