tv

By Jessica R.

- Nov 5, 2023

Episode 6 of "Neon" kicks off with the three pals jamming to 'Corillo' in their apartment. Santi's song celebrating their bond has Ness and Felix thrilled. When their landlady complains about the volume, Santi lightheartedly asks her to join the dance.

Subsequently, Santi and his friends rendezvous with Oscar at BPM. Oscar's admiration for Felix remains, and he expresses interest in signing Santi after hearing his new track. Yet, Ness suggests consulting Gina first.

Oscar, undeterred, brings up Isa, hinting that she might be interested in dating Santi and is eager to meet him. Upon leaving, they encounter Mia tidying her desk. Though she extends an apology, only Felix accepts it.

At their home, Ness receives a terse message from Gina, upset about their BPM meeting. Ness, feeling apprehensive, chooses to avoid the confrontation.

Meanwhile, Santi's meeting with Isa reveals her ulterior motives. She envisions a publicity-driven relationship, going as far as alerting the paparazzi. Isa's intent? To showcase her Latina roots, contemplating a shift to Reggaeton, believing Santi complements this image. She assures Santi that this arrangement will also elevate his industry connections.

Relaying this to his crew, they're optimistic. Felix's excitement peaks upon learning that Oscar has suggested him to helm Isa's documentary. The group is then invited to Isa's secluded rainforest studio. On their flight, Isa shocks Santi with a bill for half the jet's cost. Relying on Gina's funds, Santi agrees, seeing potential returns from a successful track. However, tension escalates when Ness unintentionally consumes Isa's salmon.

Recording hits a snag when Isa struggles with lyrics. Ness probes if Isa is genuinely connecting with her Latina background and Reggaeton, leading to disagreements. Amid this, Gina messages Ness, questioning Santi's collaboration with Isa.

Post-recording, as the trio unwinds with massages, they reassess their objectives. Santi reassures them of his commitment. Felix, in good spirits, informs Mia about his directing opportunity, receiving her well wishes.

Simultaneously, Santi tries forging a deeper bond with Isa, unveiling more about himself and playing 'Corillo'. Isa, charmed, proposes a duet.

However, clouds gather as Gina unexpectedly appears in the jungle, confronting Ness about media portrayal of Santi as Isa's arm candy. Disapproving of this narrative and the gimmicky PR tactics, Gina emphasizes Santi's inherent talent. She urges Ness to prioritize herself and breaks the bombshell news: they owe her a whopping $400,000.

Despite recording the duet, the atmosphere is strained. Felix and Ness, disheartened, depart for Miami, leaving Santi behind to finalize the track.

Santi's quick approval of Isa's suggestion to modify 'Corillo' into a duet raises eyebrows. The song's essence, centered on his camaraderie, is at stake. Isa's self-centered tendencies are evident, and Santi needs to tread cautiously.

The impending debt to Gina poses challenges for the trio. Their next move remains to be seen, setting the stage for the upcoming episodes.
