Used in the fixed phrase 'tener algo en la boca', meaning to keep mentioning a topic obsessively. In this episode it refers to constantly talking about death.
Refers to a covert, malevolent force or conspiracy operating in secret. Used when someone believes events are being orchestrated by powerful hidden actors.
From the image of a puppeteer. Used to suggest someone is secretly orchestrating events or people. Often implies hidden power or manipulation.
Very direct and crude term for diarrhea, common in informal speech but inappropriate in formal contexts.
Used as a threat: 'te va a caer el pelo' means the person is going to face harsh consequences. Equivalent to 'you'll catch it' or 'you'll be sorry'.
Expresses intense irritation or anger. 'Me pone negro/a' means 'it drives me mad' or 'it makes my blood boil'.
Derived from 'puta'. Used here as a gerund to describe sex work, specifically street prostitution. Also used more broadly (and less vulgarly) to mean 'having a rough time' or 'being messed around', depending on context.
A Catholic-origin exclamation widely secularized and used to express surprise, shock, or exasperation. Not necessarily religious in everyday use.
'Pedazo de' before a noun intensifies it strongly. 'Pedazo de puta' is an insult, but the same structure ('pedazo de coche', 'pedazo de tío') can be highly complimentary. Context determines tone entirely.
Literally 'to make a bad face'. Used to describe expressing displeasure or disapproval nonverbally through facial expression.
Literally 'crows/ravens', used figuratively for people who circle around someone vulnerable or famous to take advantage of them. A loaded cultural metaphor.
