First, we barely knew him, so it isn’t much of a loss. But, at the same time, he’s been built up to be this notable character because Garrett’s screw-up allowed Cortes to flourish. So the first time we properly get to meet him being the last time we get to see him is disappointing. Especially since it could mean more Garrett now with Maya free from Cortes. Nadia’s Independence At this point, Nadia has already thrown out Arman’s clothes onto the driveway. Also, she has recommitted herself to La Habana and plans to work for Robert, making a commission, to buy the place herself. Thus, while Arman might have worked with Garrett under the hope he and Thony could take down Robert and eliminate him from Nadia’s life, it seems Arman may not have Nadia to fight for. “Nadia noting to Arman ‘There is no us!’,” The Cleaning Lady, “Paradise Lost,” directed by SJ Main Munoz, 2022, (FOX)
