The second of back-to-back FX’s Mayans M.C. season three episodes begins with two Mexican cops cruising the streets. Arguing over tunes on the radio becomes the least of their problems when they’re ambushed and shot dead by the Los Olvidados (Adelita’s rebel group) as episode two, “The Orneriness of Kings,” kicks off.

Miguel Galindo (Danny Pino) isn’t any closer to coming to terms with his mother’s death, waking with a start in his lover’s bed after another nightmare involving Dita. The news is on television and Governor Sederica Palomo (Mia Maestro) crawls out of bed to watch herself at a taped press conference. Palomo claims she’s working on obliterating crime and ending the Galindo cartel, but Miguel’s presence in her bed says otherwise.

Miguel warns the governor she should cut back on the incendiary speeches. She reminds him because her approval ratings are down she needs to do whatever it takes to get reelected. They discuss the rebels and Miguel assures her they wouldn’t dare make any moves in Galindo territory.

Meanwhile, EZ (JD Pardo) rides over to his dad’s place and once again finds Felipe (Edward James Olmos) still in bed during the day. He gently covers his dad with a blanket and then is surprised to see Gaby (Sulem Calderon) didn’t wait outside as expected. She followed him inside to check out his childhood home.

Spotting the sink full of dirty dishes, Gaby gets to work cleaning even though EZ assures her she doesn’t need to. He’s got to take off for a meeting at the clubhouse, but Gaby wants to stay and clean. EZ attempts to explain his dad doesn’t like strangers, however, Gaby doesn’t care.

Before taking off, EZ moves his dad’s gun from the nightstand just in case Felipe has any ideas about getting rid of Gaby.

The meeting commences and Bishop (Michael Irby) admits the move he made cutting off the other charters from the drug pipeline is putting everyone in danger. Angel (Clayton Cardenas) interrupts as EZ’s about to speak up, declaring they shouldn’t care about the other kings. He believes the other charters have been earning off their hard work and it’s time for the other kings to step up.

Coco (Richard Cabral) races off as soon as the meeting’s adjourned. He looks like death eating a cracker and won’t tell his friends what’s going on. He claims he’s sick but otherwise doing okay.

After leaving the meeting, Coco meets up with Louie (Noel Gugliemi) who’s not in the least bit happy to see him. Coco needs more oxy and tries to trade his daughter’s iPad for drugs. Louie’s tapped out and informs Coco there’s a new skinny white kid called Butterfly who’s holding all the meth now.

EZ corners Angel and asks if Bishop’s play was the right move. Angel believes it was but EZ thinks there’s got to be a better solution. Angel reminds his brother that now that he has a patch, he needs to speak for himself in meetings. “Stop acting like a bitch-ass prospect,” warns Angel.

Next, EZ approaches Bishop in the restroom to discuss jail, their brothers in Arizona, and what it takes to be a king. (The conversation cuts off before we get to the meat of the matter.)

Felipe awakens to noise in his kitchen. The first thing he does is look for his gun, which EZ wisely hid. He finds Gaby in the kitchen and she introduces herself as a friend of EZ’s. She’s made mole but Felipe wants her out of his house. Gaby offers to make him breakfast after he showers. Felipe doesn’t respond and instead shuffles out of the kitchen.

The time has come for the DOJ to deliver Adelita (Carla Baratta) back to Mexican authorities. A gate in the border wall is opened as two vehicles arrive on the Mexican side. The occupants have face coverings and are heavily armed, which was not part of the deal, but the DOJ doesn’t have any viable option other than to go through with the exchange.

Adelita’s walked through the gate with her head still inside a black hood. She’s placed in one of the two vehicles and only as they’re pulling away do those inside reveal they’re part of Los Olvidados. They’re happy she’s back and free once more.

Adelita doesn’t react and instead sits completely still and silent.

Adelita’s delivered to the group’s new home base. She continues to barely react to her circumstances even as she’s informed Galindo and Palomo have deserted them. The only time Adelita shows any emotion is when she’s told Mini left after becoming a problem for the group. Adelita wails in anguish at the news of Mini’s disappearance.

Not long after arriving, Adelita leaves the warehouse without telling anyone where she’s going.

Over at the Galindo estate, Emily (Sarah Bolger) is frazzled and having no luck getting Cristobal to quit crying during breakfast. She’s informed there’s a woman at the gate who’s there to see her and is stunned to see the woman is her sister.

A short while later after she cleans herself up, Emily catches up with her sister who apparently was invited to come help by Miguel. Her sister’s living in National City and Miguel suggested Emily needs help after firing Maria. Emily’s not exactly thrilled by the unexpected arrival of her sister who she’s not close to and is the polar opposite of.

The club’s summoned back to the table for another meeting. Tucson charter president Ibarra (Mike Beltran) addresses the group, pleading his case and reiterating the need to supply his territory since they stepped on toes to acquire the area. He reveals he begged the other charters for help and to make a deal with Bishop – that’s how desperate the situation is in Arizona.

Bishop won’t give in to the other kings, making it clear he has to put Santo Padre first.

EZ finally speaks up and explains his plan. He wants to keep the pipeline open and continue to supply heroin to Arizona. His fellow club members react in anger to that suggestion, but EZ has more to say. He continues, explaining they’ll keep Arizona safe by making Tucson the new conduit in that state. EZ suggests they take away the crowns from the other kings and that they do so by moving a huge amount rather than playing around with small paydays.

EZ wants to funnel the heroin to Tucson and put Tucson in charge of distributing it out to other Arizona charters. If the other charters don’t like it, that’s too bad. His plan will make Bishop the sole king of the Mayans M.C.

Ibarra agrees but is worried about Marcus Alvarez. Bishop reminds him Alvarez may have crowned the kings but he’s not a Mayan.

The meeting ends and Bishop tells EZ he hopes he’s ready to pull this off.

Paco (Joe Ordaz), one of Miguel’s drivers, is not on duty and is looking after his young son when he receives a call telling him to come to work. He’s forced to leave his kid at home alone and head out to the spot where Dita’s body was found.

Miguel blames Paco for leaving his mother alone which allowed her to slip into the driver’s seat and take off. Paco admits he didn’t know Dita could drive but Miguel’s fury is unstoppable. He shoots Paco once and then the gun (which used to belong to Miguel’s father) jams. He screws around with it, gets it to work, and shoots Paco twice more.

Marcus (Emilio Rivera) and Nestor (Gino Vento) can only stand by and watch as their friend is gunned down by their boss.

That evening, Miguel finally returns home and thanks Emily’s sister for coming. Emily pulls him aside and demands to know why he didn’t tell her he called her sister. He refuses Emily’s request to drive her home and insists she’s going to stay and help out for as long as she wants.

EZ returns to his dad’s place to find Gaby and Felipe eating and chatting. The mood darkens as Felipe rises from the table and declares he doesn’t need a babysitter. Gaby wants to come back the next day but EZ says she doesn’t need to. She insists and reveals she believes Felipe is a good man.

Episode two ends with Coco arriving at the complex Butterfly and his people call home. It’s out in the middle of nowhere and looks like a homeless encampment. Coco’s given directions to Butterfly’s place by a small child and arrives there with a request for oxy. He makes a deal for a small amount in exchange for his daughter’s iPad, but he’s not satisfied with the arrangement.

After they step inside Butterfly’s trailer, Coco pulls his gun and demands more drugs. Butterfly warns him this won’t end well but Coco doesn’t back down. However, all it takes is a whistle for Butterfly to call in backup who chase Coco to his car and drag him out.

In his weakened state he’s no match for the group. After a woman calls out his name, someone in the group knocks him out with a bat.




‘Mayans M.C.’ Season 3 Episode 1 Recap: “Pap Struggles with the Death Angel”

FX’s Mayans M.C. season three episode one opens with Adelita (Carla Baratta) still in custody, chained from the ceiling, toes barely touching the ground as her baby cries. Angel (Clayton Cardenas) is seeking solace with another woman while EZ (JD Pardo) is beating the crap out of a rival as a warning to stop screwing with the Mayans. Other members are in equally dark places as the third season begins.

Military vehicles crowd the otherwise nearly empty streets of Santo Padre. EZ slows as he rides by, staring at Border Patrol officers as they make arrests.

He makes it to his dad’s place and finds the sink full of dirty dishes and Felipe (Edward James Olmos) still in bed. EZ gently asks his father if he’s going to open the shop and offers Felipe a breakfast burrito he picked up on the way over. Felipe doesn’t budge or respond, obviously still distressed over his son’s role in Dita’s death.

EZ’s next stop is at Angel’s place and he’s surprised to see a woman emerging from the bedroom. Angel warns him not to make a big deal of it.

Next, we check in with Coco (Richard Cabral) who has his sight back but looks horrible. His daughter, Leticia (Emily Tosta), asks if he’s seen her iPad and he yells at her to get a job and help pay for things around the place. She reminds him he couldn’t pay her tuition and she had to drop out of school, which leads into another rant about getting a job and helping with expenses.

Emily (Sarah Bolger) is taking a swim when she’s confronted by Mayor Antonia Pena (Alexandra Barreto) about people losing their pensions because she and Miguel made promises they couldn’t keep. The border shutdown has halted construction, a development that Antonia blames on the attention caused by Miguel’s criminal activity. She warns Emily to get construction going again or the town will die. Trash isn’t being picked up, the police force has been cut, and people are already fleeing Santo Padre.

Angel and EZ discuss their dad and how hard he’s taken Dita’s death while on their way to a meet-up in the tunnel. Coco’s all crazy-eyed as he emerges from the tunnel and Gilly (Vincent Vargas) confirms he’s not right in the head. EZ and Angel brought two child car seats with them to use to hide the heroin Gilly and Coco retrieved from across the border. It’s not nearly the stash they normally move. The border shutdown’s killing the Mayans’ business.

The DOJ raids the dress factory and investigates the tunnel beneath it.

EZ places the car seats in the backseat of a woman who really needs the $5,000 payoff. She and her husband lost their jobs and are getting desperate. “Luckily, crime always pays,” she jokes. EZ promises she’ll be fine and will make it through the border checkpoint without any issues.

EZ and Angel believe the shutdown is payback by Potter.

They make it back to the bar and discover it’s full of Border Patrol agents.

Gilly wants Coco to pay but he’s totally broke so EZ gets the round. Angel wonders what Coco’s spending his money on and Gilly notes Coco stinks like a hobo, so he’s not broke from buying soap. The jokes turn personal when Coco calls Gilly a bitch and Gilly says he should stop whining about a little glass in his eye.

A punch is thrown and Coco lands on one of the agents playing pool. That ignites a brawl and eventually, after finishing off their beers, EZ and Angel join in.

The woman driving with the car seats is stopped by Border Patrol agents and looks incredibly nervous as she turns over her license. She tries to make small talk but her fingers drum on the steering wheel as she lies about being on her way to pick up her 19-month-old twins. She’s instructed to pull over but panics and attempts to speed away.

The Border Patrol deploy a spike strip and she winds up crashing into a police car before being placed under arrest.

The club assembles around the table and Bishop (Michael Irby) lays into the foursome for drawing more attention by beating up soldiers. Their action has placed a larger target on the club. Plus, they lost product with the arrest at the checkpoint. Bishop explains that means they’ll have to meet with the other kings that evening empty-handed.

Taza (Raoul Max Trujillo) asks what they’re going to do about Palo (president of the Vatos Malditos) and reveals he doesn’t think Palo’s finished. Bishop believes it’s over – they lost Riz but Palo lost everyone.

The new prospect, Steve, is a bundle of nerves and as the Mayans leave their meeting he stumbles and smashes bottles of beer. EZ’s nice enough to hand him a towel while the others can only say, “What the f*ck, Steve?”

Taza and Bishop remain at the table and continue to argue about Palo after the meeting’s over. Bishop demands Taza let it go and leaves.

EZ confronts Taza about why he thinks Palo isn’t finished. Taza reveals Palo cut his own brother’s throat and held him while he bled out. They don’t know the guy like he does.

Speaking of Palo, the VM pres rings up Sons of Anarchy’s Allesandro Montez (Jacob Vargas) and asks why he hasn’t been searching for his missing cousin.

Miguel Galindo (Danny Pino) puts in his first appearance of season three with a visit to Dita’s therapist. He demands to know what they talked about during their sessions but doesn’t learn anything useful because of patient/doctor confidentiality.

After the meeting, Miguel’s informed of the mule’s arrest and that they don’t have an effective way to get the product in from Mexico right now.

Over at the DOJ, an order comes in to release Adelita back to Mexico. Potter signed off on the order which is basically a death sentence for Adelita.

The Reyes brothers do a little more bonding over women, with Angel giving EZ a hard time about Gaby. Angel warns his baby bro if he calls her “special,” he’s going to throw up in his mouth. Laughing, EZ assures his brother Gaby’s definitely special.

They’re still joking around when Bishop interrupts to inform them they need to return to the clubhouse at midnight. He’s decided he’s taking the club as backup for his meeting with the kings.

EZ uses his free hours before the meeting for a quick date with Gaby (Sulem Calderon). They’re all cute and flirty as they get to know each other better.

Miguel returns home to a crying baby and a distraught Emily. She fired Maria for allowing Pena to enter their home without her permission. Miguel’s upset she let Maria go since she was family but lets that go to find out what Pena wanted. Emily explains Pena’s blaming them for the town’s sorry financial shape and asks why they can’t get material locally. Miguel reminds her their profit margin depended on lower material costs. As it stands right now, they can only turn a profit if they write off the project.

After a quick, perfunctory kiss, Miguel says he’s going to grab a shower and head back to Mexico.

Bishop and the club arrive on a bridge which is apparently a neutral location for the meeting. The other kings have also brought their members, and tensions run high as Bishop explains the mule was busted at the border. The kings blame Santo Padre for the fact guns and drugs have stopped flowing, and there’s no money coming in for any of the charters.

They want Bishop to double the heroin for a few months, but Bishop doesn’t believe that’s possible. He’s told it’s an order – not a request.

Bishop refuses and warns them they can’t survive without his pipeline. He suggests they just try and make it without Santo Padre. With that, the meeting’s adjourned.

Two of Miguel’s men walk down a dark street, bitching about the way Maria was treated. One steps in dog poop and they spot the woman walking a dog up ahead. They catch up to her and shoot her in the back. It turns out the dog walker was Dita’s therapist. The dog, fortunately, is uninjured and barks as his/her mom’s dead body is tossed in the back of a van and driven away.

EZ returns home from the meeting and considers the contents of his secret box. He takes the letters and photos inside and slowly tosses each piece into a fire. He kisses his mother’s photo before adding it to the burning pile as flashbacks of killing Dita flow through his head.

While Angel’s having a threesome, Adelita’s being scrubbed down in preparation for her return to Mexico.

Miguel’s late-night trip to Mexico wasn’t for business. He arrives at Governor Palomo’s door and is greeted with a hug and kiss before being pulled inside.

Palo’s walking down a deserted road when a Border Patrol agent pulls up behind him. After obeying commands and laying down, the agent approaches to check his ID. Palo slices his Achilles and then shoots him with his own gun. He then uses the agent’s car to run over him not once, not twice, but three times before driving off.
