This episode shows how the best laid plans of mice and men go awry. In the Cali cartel, the best laid plans are crafted by weak minded egotists whose pride drives their actions. In the DEA, the plans are crafted by bureaucrats whose main concern is how they look to their bosses, who are dimwits.
Chepe has been tracked by a journalist who has been able to learn far too much about Chepe's operation. Chepe sees him on TV revealing his plans despite the fact that he knows Chepe has seen him snooping. His plans are going nowhere. Still, Chepe isn't half as smart as he thinks he is.
Chepe's own faulty planning allowed the journalist to learn too much, and killing the journalist isn't going to save Chepe's organization. Chepe, like the Dominican gang he killed off is using ether to process coke in a building in the city. That is about as stupid as you can get, and an explosion in a lab staffed with teenaged idiots is the result. Chepe's operation in NYC is doomed by that kind of stupidity.
Miguel is a weak minded fool whose brother has brought him along up until now. David, Miguel's dimbulb son, is stupidly dragging Miguel to a public party when the authorities are looking for all of the Cali godfathers. Miguel stupidly goes along with David's plan
Only Jorge seems to be at least trying to form his own plan for survival, but he is hampered by the stupidity of the DEA bureaucrats he is forced to try to use. Jorge's is the best laid plan of all the players in this drama, but the idiocy of everyone around him is threatening to doom him and his family.
