Your 30-year-old daughter has returned to the island and you’re not sure if you want to be around her. Yes. Your ex-husband is still in love with you and wants to come back. Yes. On the day of your mother’s funeral, you went to sell a car. Yes. You think now that your mother is gone, you’re next. Maybe. You’re becoming obsessed with Nino Bravo. Maybe. You feel like all your problems would disappear if you were Nino Bravo. Maybe. You feel like now that you’re Nino, you can have secrets too. Maybe. But you’re exhausted. I’m exhausted, yes. I’m going to start doing things wrong.
