## Synopsis

The episode begins with Fidelia gossiping to someone else on the phone, until she is interrupted by a client who is looking for the hairdresser. Fidelia then calls Maruchi to tell her that her client has arrived.

After Maruchi introduces herself to the customer, Fidelia begins to gossip to Maruchi about Armando, Maruchi's ex-husband, while she files her nails. According to Fidelia, Armando married one of his neighbors and the lady is also pregnant, since she saw her buying Pampers at Walmart.

Maruchi then talks to the client about one of her friends who recommended the client to Maruchi. Maruchi continues to say that she used to be a swinger, much to Maruchi and Fidelia's excitement. The client disbelieves the fact that she was a swinger, and that they are simply friends at work.

After complimenting the client's hair, Maruchi yells across the room calling for Laritza, her daughter, who believes that she took her comb, embarrassing the client as well. An irritated Laritza comes out of her room after she claimed to be watching Lion King 2, and then a feud erupts between the two. The client then interrupts the argument by mentioning that the comb was partially submerged in a bowl.

Maruchi then tends to the customer, asking for a cut and blow dry. After spraying her hair with water to rinse it instead of through the sink because it was clogged, Laritza then asks her mother where the heels were which she uses for the club, quickly starting another argument as a result. Fidelia then appears under the client to persuade her to do her nails, but she turns down the offer because she only scheduled a hair appointment; Fidelia continued to file her nails nevertheless.

When Fidelia said to Maruchi that the client's nails were like sausages, another argument began between Laritza and Maruchi, except this time it was about her irresponsibility to turn off the stove since the sausages were already burnt, embarrassing the client again. Maruchi then returns to the client once more and apologizes about the arguing. The client accepts the apology, however, saying that teenagers can be tough and likes her style. To Maruchi's extent, she disregards the fact that the client said that Laritza was a teenager, when she really is 24 years old (at the time of the episode's publication).

For a fourth time, Laritza reappears to complain about her missing sock to her mother and a short argument results between the two. When Maruchi turns on the hair dryer, the lights go out due to a circuit overload (possibly because the hair dryer and the microwave was connected to the same circuit breaker), starting another short argument. The episode then ends with Fidelia singing "Amor No Es Solo Sexo" by Tito Rodriguez.
