¿Quién es Quién? Monday 2/15/16 #4

No opening credits. Damn.
They better make the song available, dammit.

Mercurio

Not a lot of our favorite guy this episode. Mercurio is out of jail and looking for a job. Unfortunately, political asylum doesn’t automatically come with permission to work and no one will hire him without work authorization. Read More
