Revenge may be a dish best served cold but in this episode the rebels take a play out of the cartels own playbook that ends up having dire consequences for both the rebels and the Galindo cartel's leader Miguel (Danny Pino).
Miguel's wife Emily (Sarah Bolger), who is the mother of Miguel's only son is very frustrated with her husband's ongoing war with the rebels. Emily discreetly heads to the Reyes family butcher shop under the pretense that she is just picking up a roast but her real intention is to meet with her old lover and trusted friend, EZ for some answers that her husband Miguel is hiding from her.
The Mayans are stuck in the middle between the rebels and the Galindo cartel who have different opinions on what the drug cartel brings to their country. The Galindo cartel reaps wealth and prosperity while the rebels know that the drug cartel leaves the rebels with far too many orphans and they will sacrifice their own lives to see an end to the drug cartel.
No one is more conflicted than the recently released from prison Mayan prospect EZ, whose own brother Angel (Clayton Cardenas) is all in with the Mayans motorcycle club (MC). EZ is also very conflicted by the two leading women who are on opposite sides. Namely Emily who is the drug cartel leaders wife and mother of their only son, and the female leader of the righteous rebels Adelite, (Carla Baratta). He has feelings for both women.
The conflicts are continuing to evolve and we will see how EZ resolves to appease both parties in the upcoming episodes.
