“Uch/Opossum”
The fifth episode of Mayans M.C. is titledย “Uch/Opossum,” and a descriptionย of it from FX reads, “A new deal requires a dangerous favor in Santa Madre.”
According to Monsters and Critics, the Mayans M.C. titles are mostly all compounded with “one in Spanish and a second divided by a forward slash which often to refers to the Haab and Tzol’kin (called Chol Q’ij in K’iche’ Mayan) calendars.”
Angel Reyes
As was revealed in the season premiere of Mayans M.C., Angel Reyes is actually working with theย Los Olvidados (aka The Rebels) and their leaderย Adelita.
This is a serious conflict of interest, as the Mayans also work for the Galindo Cartel, who the Rebels are trying to take down.
EZ Reyes
Another big revelation from the first episode of the series was that EZ is workingย with the DEAย to provide information on the Galindo Cartel.
“What I signed up for was feeding you intel on Galindo, only Galindo,” EZ angrily told his DEA contact, after the agent threatened to change EZ’sย deal. “My brother, the MC, nothing touches themโฆ The day the DEA has enough to move on that cartel is the day I walk away. From you, from the MC, this town, all of it. I get my fโing life back.”
Hank ‘Tranq’ Loza
In the second episode of the series, the Rebels kidnapped the baby of Galindo’s wifeย โ and EZ’sย ex โย Emily Thomas. Angel knew about it, but didn’t tell anyone as he was plottingย with Adelita. Ironically, Emily came to him later begging for his help in finding the child.
EZ Reyes (conti.)
In episode three, Angel reveals just how in deep he is with making backhands deals when he makes one with aย Chinese gangster.
Then, surprisingly, Mayans leader Marcusย Alvarez (played byย Emilio Rivera) shoots another Chinese gangster in the head, which shocks all of the crew.
He later explainsย that it was a set-up in order to see if any of the Mayans were double-crossing the crew. Luckily for Angel, he wasn’t found out.
