Poor little orphan Maria del Carmen has woken up in the home of the model and influencer Gloria Calderon. That's me, after the tragic accident that led to my death. Oh, of course, no one knew we were identical twins, so she's got everyone fooled. She met my boyfriend Raoul and my parents, the richest couple in Florida, And just when she thought this fairytale life was hers to keep, she discovered a mysterious letter in my diary. That's said, Gloria, if you're reading this letter, you need to know that your whole life has been a lie a us mia. What does this mean? Maybe I shouldn't be reading this, or should I? Glodia, I know that Gladia. Doctor Nidalgo wasn't century, But don't worry. I got doctor Constantina to come and um, the doctor see, I just need a few minutes. Okay, okay, but hurry up. You know how he is? Yes, I know how he is. Of course I do not the hell am I doing. There's no way I can pull this off. I should just tell the truth about who I really am. But then I'll never find out how I ended up at that orphanage slash convent or or what's in these letters? What should I do? Why am I monologuing to myself? I'm already, I'm good. Come in, Oh glory, Gloria, my little cookie muffin pie. What are we gonna do with you? I'm good morning, you know, sweetheart. Normally I don't do house calls, but hey, those term work and charcoal colomb don't pay for themselves. What No, alright, let's take a look. M no, no, you look terriblazed, I mean, totally unscathed from the accident. But we need to schedule you for a chemical peel. Those pores are a travesty. Here come the chemical peel police, gonna arrest you. I don't move now, listen, open up, open up and say ah with me. Uh wait, it's weird. I could have sworn you had your tonsils removed anyway. How you've been feeling nausea, dizziness, temporary amnesia. You get your period? Yeah, I definitely had that. Hey, what on earth is going on with these ears? We have them tucked back when you were like twelve. You look like I don't know, dumbo. Um, I had an ear growth spurt. Yeah, yeah, I don't know what that is. Anyway, something is not okay. I don't know what's happening. I okay, doctor, I'm going to tell you the truth. The truth the tea bringing on. Sister. I am not Gloria. I don't even know who that is. My name is Maria de Garman, and I grew up in a convent not too far from here. I left because I wanted to explore the world, and so I came to South Beach and I was working as a lifeguard when I suddenly saw a boat crash into a huge rock, and I tried to save the driver. But when I looked at the driver, it was me. Except it wasn't me. It was my twin, which I didn't even know I had, and I couldn't save her. And when I came out of the water, everyone thought I was Gloria. And now I'm here crying. Wait, delightful, Oh Gloria, how do you come up with these things? I wondered, what well, you've always loved those Taylor novellas. You had a convent working as a lifeguard, No Twins classic. You should write it up and send it to Hollywood. Oh you know what, I would add an attractive doctor friend who she tells all her secrets to. All right, sweetheart, I'm gonna leave you to rest, but I expect to see you in my office for that chemical peel asap, cupiche Luisa. Gloria is doing okay, but we need to take her recovery more seriously. With the amnesia and oh the pores. No, this is serious. She needs more treatment. Oh my god. Should we take it to the hospital hospital? No, no, no, no, no, the spa. But like yesterday, m nice try little Cis. It looks like you're stuck in a glamorous life for now. Meanwhile, across town, A Stavan is enjoying a little time with the boys. Just your retirement, mayor, thank you. I had a good run, but now I'm looking forward to some rest. Living under public scrutiny all the time is absolutely exhausting. You know. Look, I'd imagine that owning all those yachts and a private island and Dubai makes up for it. Oh well, absolutely, yeah. Don't forget about all those gorgeous ladies you met while doing your rounds across they met me. I just stood there. What do you mean not sure? The mayor is a happily married man. I have never met anyone more faithful in my life. Well, yeah, if you cross state lines, then it's no longer considered cheating. Yeah, no, no, I think a lawyer friend told me that one lawyers. No, you don't, but in all honesty, it's always a pleasure to seize you. Mister Mayer. I wanted to ask, did you manage to get that permit on those lands we talked about? I tried, but nowadays getting anything done is so impossible. Liberals stuff the armpit, hairy women, liberals, the snowflake vegetarian. You know who they are. They don't let us do anything. They're always crying about some endangered fish, some little pumpkin that didn't get its nutrition, a clouded Oh listen, what do you expect? These are the same people who constantly undermine our Christian values. Agmen, exactly, Well, I certainly do hope that the next mayor has what it takes to go toe to toe with Alicia Mendouca. I hear she's gunning from my spot. A liberal woman mayor or followard what's next? Universal healthcare and gulags? This is communism. Ah. Well, we're sad to see you go, but but you know, cheers to your retirement. Scheers everyone, I know that cheers. Saloo, that's fresh, that's fresh. Hey, oh, step on, nacho. I hope to see you soon on the golf course. Hey, maybe I'll have a couple of lady friends you take along so we can all have some good old fashioned fun. Yeah, bring about that. You catch my drift? I hope you do. I was just being very explicit. No, no, I remember that time on that golf card. Do you remember that atter? Oh wow, yeah, I barely remember that. Actually, all right, gentlemen, thank you so much. Were you they? Hey, say say say hi to your wife. I'm not seeing her tonight, But gentlemen, it's great seeing you. Oh yeah. With him gone, we have to make sure that we have the same close relationship with the next mayor. I mean Alicia maindish Alicia maindais no no, no, no no, that would be a disaster. No no, no, stay one. Listen to me. What if we make sure Alicia never wins? What do you mean? Yeah? What if we could guarantee that the next mayor shares one hundred percent of our agenda and we won't have to wait on on his or her authorization for anything? That would mean that would mean that we could skip all that bureaucratic mumbo jumbo to get our hands on those lands we want. But how would we even go about finding someone like that? You're looking at him, m you mean you? No, No is the one. No, You're standing in front of a mirror. I mean you na? Nacho? Do you think do you think the time has finally come? You think I should run for Mayor's the one? I can't imagine a better qualified candidate mayor? God that all it has a nice ring to it, don't you think? Hmm? Looks like Nacho and Poppy are having a little political epiphany. Let's see how Maria del Garman is doing in her SPA day ou out shoe bye. Wow, that feels incredible. Dah this there's nothing a few mimoses and a time massage. Cat face this, this is amazing. Two lobsters with lemon her butter madam, I've always wanted to try lobster. What are you talking about, Glaudia. You've been eating lobster since you were three months old, right. What I meant was, I've never tried lobster made by this chef at this time after a massage on a Tuesday, Ah, gladle. You know you always did have a refined palette, even as a child. What um, what else do you remember from my childhood? It was the best time, before the paparazzi, before the scandals. Before you were such a happy little girl, and we made sure you had everything you could possibly want. Dresses, toys, parties. Oh remember how much you loved writing your pony. Jesus, I had a pony. You know. It took a long time for your father and me to have you. It wasn't easy. I always wanted a big family full of children, but having you was more than enough. You are the best thing that's ever happened to me, Gloria. I never thought i'd hear you say that, mom. See see what a nice little moment. The orphan who finally receives the love of a caring mother. Blah blah blah. But nobody stops to think about me and my feelings. Do you know how hard it is to watch them eat lobster and get massages after the whole dying thing. My back is killing me. Good afternoon, Senorita. Gloria, you look relaxed. How was the spy incredible? Lest They gave me a massage where a woman walked on my back and then we ate lobster and my mom told me about the ponies? Do we still have those? No? No, there was an incident. Oh anyway, I'm very glad you had a good time. Boy. No, I'll leave you so you can get some rest. I cleaned up your room and left your diary on your bed, right, the diary with the letters hios, please be a normal letter in a normal diary filled with normal things. Dear Gloria, I hope you're doing well and are still receiving my letters. I can't even imagine how many have failed to reach your hands. But if you're reading this, then you need to know that your entire life has been a Why what, Gloria. I know this is hard to believe, but the people who raised you are murderers. You're not a calderon. You're my daughter. Oh come on, sorry, Little Ciss looks like your fairytale life only lasted one day.
