Unable to run the business themselves, the sisters look for someone to act as manager. Carlos suggests his cousin Luis, if only to get Luis out from working at the casino. Luis has some unique business ideas, which is causing havoc for Carlos at the casino. At the dry goods store, Luis' business ideas cause the store to go into the red after the first week. To keep the sisters from firing Luis which would in turn cause Luis to go back to working at the casino, Carlos pays people to buy things at the store, and the fortunes of the store obviously turn around. However Luis comes up with some more interesting business ideas, including advertising the fact that the store is owned by the charitable sisters, to which their dry goods competitors cry foul. The Reverend Mother sees no other way to undo this unfair advertising than to sell the store. Luis is initially distraught until he figures he can buy the store. To be more precise, he wants Carlos to buy it for him. When Luis approaches Carlos about this proposition, Carlos tells Sister Bertrille in secret the truth about why the store was doing so well. Sister Bertrille is mad at Carlos about how he treated Luis and what this news will do for his own self worth. Written by Huggo See less
