usually in mexico they celebrate name days, as a low key birthday. so, yeah, no way Valentia doesnt know when san valentin is

Wellll, we could headcanon that this family doesn’t do it or maybe she left for Canada and stopped, but surely she would have then remembered it from her childhood. So is it just a flub from Maca? That she then corrects mid-sentence?

Actually, now I’m on the side of it being written. As real as it looks and as minor a detail as it would have been, that’s what makes them laugh, which then segues into being interrupted by Lucho in the scene itself. So kudos to the writers and Maca, I guess?

I don’t know if you noticed but there was a bottle of mezcal on the coffee table in the scene whew Val is by the fireplace.

And another anon:

Okay but did you noticed the bottle? She was drinking again while thinking about her first kiss… poor girl she just wants her girl back

You know what, I actually hadn’t noticed it. There was just so much gay onscreen.

But it’s right there. I don’t know, I would think that if we were supposed to take note, it would be a little more prominent. But maybe not, maybe it’s just an ever-present background thing. I think it is an encouraging thing that she wasn’t actually drinking in the scene we saw, instead distracting herself with thoughts of Juls. Just like…earlier that day, right? she was still paranoid about the cartel and now her mind is full of something else.
