Regina

Regina and Miguel accompany Gabo to church. Regina wonders about Gabo’s burgeoning faith and wonders how Rafa would feel if he knew that his son had decided to become a priest. Miguel is wearing ostentatious ostrich-skin boots and a large Stetson hat, and Regina observes the way that the other parishioners gawk at him. Afterward, Miguel suggests that they return to the coyote’s home to see if they can find out anything else about Rafa. At the coyote’s house, the woman they talked to last time leaves with her two children in a stroller. Her husband quickly drives by Miguel and Regina and honks.

Gabo

Gabo is grateful that God gave him the opportunity to do a reading at mass. While he is at the podium, he looks up and sees drops of real blood on the church’s statue of Christ. Gabo knows that this is a sign to him from God.

Regina

Regina and Miguel visit Miguel’s abuelo, El Abuelo Milton, after they leave the coyote’s house. There, Regina observes that it does not appear that Milton knows that Miguel and Crucita are no longer together.

El Abuelo Milton

El Abuelo Milton tells Regina and Miguel about his life, noting how difficult it was to make ends meet during his youth.
