[edit] PlotTelling the story of Johnny, a Mexican truck driver and family man who falls in love with a woman he meets in his travels, and of the complications as a consequence of his new love. Dos Mujeres... used the then-new North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) as a backdrop to the story; Johnny transported merchandise from Mexico to the United States. Johnny had enemies in Tijuana, where he was blamed for the death of a young man by the Montegarza family. Johnny is still very in love with his wife when he falls for a young waitress, Tanya (Bibi Gaytán), whose mother owns a restaurant that Johnny frequents. Tanya does not know he is married, and Reymundo, a police officer in love with Tanya, is working with fellow officer Ángel to pursue the head of the family that blames Johnny for the young man's death. It is later discovered that Johnny did not cause the young man's death, and while he was struggling to decide whether he wants to stay with his wife or his girlfriend, Tanya dies taking a knife thrust intended for her rival – Johnny's wife – Ana Maria. Johnny and Ana Maria reconcile after Tanya's death. The final scene shows the couple retiring for the evening. Johnny, dreaming of Tanya's death, calls her name in his sleep. When awakes in the morning, Ana Maria and the children are gone. [edit] TriviaThe show was a comeback for former CHiPs star Erik Estrada, who played Johnny. He earned $1 million and returned to the spotlight, albeit a diminished one. Actor Roberto Palazuelos, who played Raymundo, was substituted by Sergio Sendel when he failed to attend a recording because of going to a Michael Jackson concert in Mexico City. At the beginning the show was aired at 6 o'clock PM but because of the great success was transferred to prime time 10 o'clock PM. [edit] Cast
