Ep 3. Under the Influence

Tragically twerk-tastic. Despite the serious nature of the show itself, Under the Influence is a bit of a guilty pleasure for those who enjoy a comedy-tinged drama. In this episode, the drama is kicked up a notch as everybody's favorite dysfunctional neighbors find themselves in a sticky situation. When Eddie is pulled over by a cop while driving drunk and finds himself unable to wiggle his way out of the situation, the fallout is immediate. Eddie's wife, Esperanza, finds herself in a compromising position with a fellow police officer, while the other women on the block struggle to keep their secrets hidden and their relationships afloat. Meanwhile, Randal's latest bout of crazy has him convinced that he's pregnant with Alex's baby, despite the fact that she is in the throes of a serious medical crisis. As always, the show navigates the highs and lows of life in a small town with a mix of humor and heart, leaving fans wondering how the story will unfold next.
