The Cleaning Lady

Previously on The Cleaning Lady...

Joel Herrmann, assistant district attorney.

How can I help you? Feng, is he trustworthy?

I'm surprised Feng would turn on us.

There's another way. There's another way. Marry me.

You're just like all the others. You stole from me.

I can't confirm that Feng ordered the hit on me.

You take him out anyway.

Either way, you set an example that they need to see.

If we get married, we can't testify against each other.

And without that, then the DA's case falls apart.

It's a business arrangement. Let's move fast. Okay?

Isabella, y Emilia son chismosos.

Don't listen to them.

They want to want to know everything about everybody.

Estrella, go away.

No es que me importe, pero --

I just needed to tell you.

I said go!

Todos ustedes!

Lights out, ladies! Wrap it up.

Lights out! Let's go!

Move it!

Who are you?

It doesn't matter. We know who you are.

Then you know I'm an innocent woman waiting for trial.

Aaaah!

Innocent?

The head of Sin Cara?

Half the inmates here lost family thanks to you.

How long do you think you'll survive

when they find out who you are?

You're confused.

We can work something out.

I have access to things. Drugs.

We can set up something with one of my girls.

Ohhh!

Hold out your hand. Do it!

$25 million wired this account.

You got 48 hours, or your secret's out.

Lots of married couples don't live together.

They just visit. You know, keeps the mystery alive.

Our marriage needs to look real, Fi,

or I'll end up in prison.

Yeah, but I mean, for how long, Thony.

What, the prison or marriage?

Now you're joking?

It's not funny. Come on.

You're moving in with a drug lord.

Look, Jorge and I will come up with

a plan to get out of this mess.

For now, this is how it needs to be.

Yeah, well, you don't have to take everything.

It's just clothes.

Everything in this house is yours.

Thony, there's no yours and mine.

I mean, there's only ours.

God, marriage has changed you.

It's Luca I'm Worried about.

He just doesn't understand why we have

to move to their home.

Neither do I, but I'll get used to it.

And so will he.

That's it. Our entire lives in two suitcases.

Veinticinco millones

to this account.

25 million?

Mm-hmm.

I don't have that.

All our resources

are tied into the mining project.

Y que?

I taught you taught you to keep

a special fund for bribes, for cuotas.

I did, and I'm using that fund to persuade

the mining commissioner to find me an operational license.

Those words mean nothing to me.

Without that license,

we forfeit our entire investment in this mine.

All the money that our associates entrusted to me.

And they'll reclaim those losses with blood.

You know they will.

They'll butcher us in front of each other.

Is that what you want?

You risked our lives for a dream.

It's not a dream, Ramona. I'm at the finish line.

Someone's trying to stop me from getting this license.

This is a move against me, not you.

What is la diferencia?

I won't survive a night

here if they find out who I am, Jorge.

I have other ways of protecting you.

I'll petition for a prison transfer.

But until then, just do what you do best.

Survive. Entiendes?

He's authorized. Open the gate.

Hi.

Hello. You remember Violeta.

Hi.

I guess it's welcome home.

Yes. Welcome home please.

I've set both of you up in the guest house

like we talked about,

but we call it the casita, right, Violeta?

Mm-hmm.

If this is our home, why are we in the guest house?

Because it's cozier, my love.

Why don't you show Violeta what you brought for her?

It's piko, Filipino hopscotch.

That's very thoughtful of you, Luca.

You know, outside on the patio is

the perfect place to play piko.

Why are there so many men with guns?

They keep us safe.

My mom keeps me safe.

You know, once you settle in, you won't even notice them.

Mm-hmm.

Can we go back to Tita Fi's?

Do you remember what we talked about, my love?

Yes, I do.

Can we give it a chance?

Okay. Okay.

Why don't you go teach Violeta

how to play piko?

Yeah? Okay.

All right.

What was that, Sanchez?

I barely touched you, mija.

Keep Up that attitude, and you'll be on toilet duty.

As long as I don't have to clean your mess, I'm good.

I know you're not trying to check me, Sanchez.

That's the fastest way to a week in solitary.

Yeah, what's your smart mouth got say to that, huh?

I have no words.

Sanchez!

Restricted to your cell. Loss of privileges.

Do I know you?

She stays in gen pop.

Like hell. You're going to solitary.

Enjoy your month in the crazy maker, bitch.

Ooh!

The transfer for the mine needs to be done

by end of day tomorrow.

Not a problem. It's already converted to crypto.

It's already with the tumbler, shuffling with the coins,

breaking the links. It's a process.

Where are you, Feng?

We can't play around on this one.

It's under control, boss.

I'll have your funds transferred just in time for

Jagerbombs at the Saloon Door Casino happy hour, okay?

Care to join me?

Yeah. Just message me when you're done.

Can I talk to you for a second?

I think there's a couple things we need to figure out.

Like, do I need to transfer Luca to Violeta's school?

Also, I need house keys.

The staff has keys. Someone's always home.

To hold the guns. Yeah.

How's Luca doing?

He remembers Violeta.

That helps. Do you guys have a Cinnamon Crunch?

Is that a food?

His favorite cereal.

I can pick up a box tomorrow.

She hears everything. She's like an elephant.

Thank you. Greta. Thank you.

Uh, we'll sort out the family details, I promise.

But we have a more pressing matter to deal with first.

What is it?

Our new best friend.

Assistant district attorney Joel Herman.

What about him?

I faced that man in court. He's a bloodhound.

He's going to stay on the hunt and watch us closely.

Well, I live here, so it's fine.

That's just geography.

We need to sell it to the world now.

Joel's going to be at the grand

re-opening of the Desert Colosseum tomorrow.

It's my big introduction to the Vegas business community.

There are certain expectations that someone who

was my wife would fulfill.

I'm not going to play your arm candy. I'm sorry.

Thony, it's no secret that we've gamed the system.

And we cannot give them cause

to prove this marriage fraudulent,

or one of us is going to end up behind bars.

So...we need to host

this event together as a very happily married couple.

I don't have a lot of experience in that field.

Well, I do, and I can help you.

Look, we just need to

tell people how we met, how we came to have feelings,

how we broke up, and, you know,

realized it was a mistake, all of that.

Fine. Everyone loves a love story, right?

We'll give them a good one.

What is it?

Hey.
