The intense preparations and last-minute obstacles before the historic concert. With just days until the debut, organizers face multiple crises: the principal conductor refuses to direct, sheet music arrives in dribs and drabs, and coincidentally, the funeral of one of the most respected men among the conservative elite occurs at the same Palace during the only scheduled rehearsal. Tension escalates when the Presidential Security detail requests that Juan Gabriel greet the president after the show, a request the artist rejects with a memorable response. The episode culminates with a strike threat from Bellas Artes technical staff, which jeopardized the first show in May 1990.
