Whose the Boss?

Great storylines, as a sibling I can full on relate to the Mal-Bri fight. The Bonita Bandidas? Absolutely priceless, give Frankie a Taco and she can take on all of Mexico.

Loved the episode but jokes about Mexicans being Narcs? Seriously in 2022? :(

I really liked this episode, was really fun and well written and as always with some good life lessons. But... I think it was totally unnecessary the comment made by Frankie at the restaurant about all the employees being Narcs... I know it is suppose to be a "joke" , but it's quite tiring that in 2022 Latinos keeps getting tag as drug dealers. I am trying to not take offence of it but , I just found it totally unnecessary comment, and more how good the episode was.

A kind of disappointing episode
inarissosa8 May 2022
Something I really like about this series is its progressive, inclusive, and anti-discriminatory lens. It has always made real, human, and beautiful portrays of marginalized communities. However the representation of Mexico was very stereotypical, with zero research on how Mexico actually looks like, and with even a few offensive comments, like Frinkie's suggestion that all Mexicans are narcs.

Additionally, it made a crucial mistake cause we don't take our husband's last name when we get married. So someone with the name of Maria Ramirez is more likely to be the Dr.'s sister than his wife. So the whole episode does not make sense. :( :( :(

Drug Trafficking
Hitchcoc4 May 2022
The girls head for Mexico to pick up the prescription drugs for their friend (and a host of others) at a pharmacy. As usual, Frankie gets all caught up in the moment. First, she puts a stop to any more cheap drugs. Then, because they have tons of drugs, they hook up with a couple of real drug smugglers who assist them in getting out of Mexico. Robert and Sol are having memory problems. They set up an audition for Guys and Dolls and have to eat crow to get a chance to audition. Mallory and Brianna have to do sensitivity training. Quite funny.
