I'm confused about La Habana,

Ramona blew it up in E4 or E5 so Nadia could claim the insurance money in order to pay the ransom to bring Arman back, but now in E7 the memorial service is at LA Habana?

What am I missing? There wasn't any eposide about the rebuild and Nadia wouldn't have had the money to rebuild it if she took the insurance money to pay the ransom, not to mention the time it would take to rebuild it.

Can someone tell me what I missed?

Aaaaaand another person Thony got killed, he wouldn't have been presumed to have made a deal with the Feds if he wasn't arrested when they was looking for Luca. Clearly I wasn't paying attention bc I thought Jorge was Ramona's son, I thought Arman and Jorge was cousins.  Jeremy is a UC Fed, all that ish that went down and he's way too cool about it. Planting cameras all over the place with a direct feed to the Feds.

I don't see where this is supposed to go. After 25 years Ramona kidnaps her nephew and is running some kind of double game on her own cartel? And Thony is going to take her down

[Irlandesa]

In some ways I liked this episode because it moved on from the stuck-in-place waiting game they were under while they were waiting for Adan to get better.

But in other ways, it doesn't make sense that Ramona would kidnap her nephew. 

And as much as I ended up rooting for Nadia and Arman in the second season after they wasted the first season chemistry of Arman and Thony, I wish they'd stop pretending like Thony came in and stole Arman from Nadia.  There were problems in that marriage in the first season.  Nadia is introduced when she hits on Thony.  And then she gets so mad at Arman for not insisting from more from his boss that she seemingly leaves him for a few weeks.  That's when Thony and Arman kicked into another gear.

In bringing in the Armenian princess in the flashback and the wake perhaps more than her having the toy car should have been done to remind us. I do remember back in that first season that Nadia's biggest concern didn't seem to be Arman's mistresses, but rather he was getting seen publicly with a cleaning lady and not a visiting heart surgeon.

. . . after showing up at a wake where she wasn't welcome dressed head to toe in white like she believes she is some paragon of virtue.

Have I mentioned how much I hate that woman recently?

When he pulled down the smoke detector, I was expecting him to find an FBI bug in it. Since that didn't happen, I think you're right about him working with the Feds in some capacity. If he's not, then he'll turn out to be Thorny's next casualty. Then again, if he is working with the Feds, he could still turn out to be Thorny's next casualty joining Garrett and Maya in her wake of destruction.

She is whatever is the opposite of a Golden Goose. Everything she touches turns into a corpse instead of into gold.

Truly,  though she stopped over in the Philippines she hasn't converted to Catholitism. And even there many of the Chinese Filipinos and those from the northern Luzon provinces wear white in this social situation

Jeremy switching from ruthless crime boss on The Rookie to super spy/cop here is interesting...

Fi clearly lost more brain cells in the desert... she thinks that Vince Vaughn was in a movie called Wake Crashers

And he just happened to have cameras in his van that he can put in the house.  Riiiight.  Cameras aren't like some extra rope.  They're expensive.

He didn't find a FBI bug in the smoke detector bc he was putting a FBI bug in the smoke detector.

You can show up to a wake/memorial in regular clothes (could be going straight to work or from work) if your going to pay your respects and leave, but if your going to stay you can't be in all white.

Who were the incompetent guys that Jorge eliminated by himself?

...

Finally decided to watch this episode, and I'm also confused about this! If they were going to keep those sets anyway, why even have that plot point??
