He regrets that Sister Bertrille's sister Jennifer was not interested in marrying him when they met. When his grandmother arrives she see's Jennifer's picture that Carlos keeps framed and assumes it to be his wife. He says that she is gone for two weeks and his grandmother says she will stay until she comes back.

As the lie grows deeper, so does the complications.
