Chapter 5~

The most dramatic moment is between Evelyn Powell and Tony her security guard. As soon as she packs off Adrian for a few weeks of intensive therapy and rest to regain his equilibrium after the home invasion robbery, she and Tony take to bed.

Evelyn offers to buy Tony a present. All he wants is to move from the pool house into the mansion. Evelyn says no, and Tony argues it would be better for everyone.

"Since when do you decide what I would prefer?" Evelyn asks him. "You are an employee."

"An employee who gives you orgasms," Tony says.

He moves without her permission. Later, Evelyn takes Tony to a fancy restaurant, and the tab comes to $900. She gives him the bill and calls over the bouncer, who looks like a henchman for Tony Soprano.

"We may be having an affair but don't think for two seconds it gives you some kind of power over me," Evelyn says.

Tony learns his lesson.

Rosie is happy in her new job, having her son with her. But the little boy, Miguel, disturbs Lucinda her employer's adult daughter, an artist. Lucinda warns Miguel to stop playing with his remote-control car in the house. When he disobeys, she spanks him, infuriating Rosie.

Rosie demands that Lucinda never touch her son again. It's the angriest Rosie has been.

Miguel again disobeys while Rosie is sweeping the studio. She bumps into and shatters the statue Lucinda has been sculpting. Lucinda would fire Rosie if she knew the maid had knocked it over. When Rosie blames her son, all Lucinda wants to see is tough love.

Rosie yells at Miguel in Spanish, but tells him to pretend to act afraid and if he cries she will buy him ice cream.

Lucinda thinks Miguel has learned his lesson. Really though, Rosie has, by tapping into her own reserves of power.

When Valentina reconciles with her mom, and asks her advice over which man she should choose -- Ethan, the supposedly poor pool boy or Remi, Genevieve's son, whom she has been in love with all of her life -- Zoila uncharacteristically stays out of it.
