...Infante plays José Carlos, a popular singer who falls for Ana Luisa (Emilia Gul?), a schoolteacher who's very proper, very blond, very snooty to those of darker hue. She's downright rude to José Carlos' closest comrades: his Afro-Cuban bandmate, Fernando (Chimi Monterrey), and the band's sexy, dusky lead dancer, Isabel (Chela Castro), who clearly has a crush on the oblivious José Carlos. "You lower yourself dancing with that mulatta," Ana Luisa sneers, to which her color-blind beau replies, "It was God's decision that she's of mixed race." Ana Luisa also...

...four, with her father's (and grandmother's) loving disposition, but Ana Luisa still resents and recoils from her. "Why didn't God send me a white and blond girl?" she demands. "I would've loved her so much." (And Mercé asks, "What did black people do to make you hate us so much?") Desperate for affection from her mother, Belén puts pancake makeup on her face, saying, "I want to be white so mama will love me." Ana Luisa sees this pathetic travesty, and kisses Belén for the first time...

...even broke the cardinal rule of teen soaps; he hijacked school-locker-heartthrob status from the troubled, handsome blond lead character on Fox's The O.C. I couldn't figure out how, until I met Brody. He's not really a nerd. He's tall. He's good-looking. He surfs. He's a drummer in a band. He's got passable scruff. He's from San Diego. He dropped out after a year of community college to move to Los Angeles to try acting for the first time in his life because, you know, he really liked movies...

...jokes the show was loved for but that came to serve as cover for absurd story lines or clichéd characters. Although he's glad it ended, he still considers The O.C. his college, and had lunch the day before with co-star Benjamin McKenzie (who played the aforementioned blond lead). Even the breakup of his much chronicled, sickeningly cute romance with co-star Rachel Bilson (they share custody of two dogs: Penny Lane and Thurmen Murmen) was a good experience. "I wouldn't date someone who would turn into a psycho," he says. Again, there's the lovable naivet?...
