relationship

name: Alfonso Herrera Rodriguez

birthday: August 28th, 1960 (18 years old in '78 | virgo)

nicknames: Poncho, Herrera.

introduced: later on season 4

background: Poncho is a Mexican exchange student who came to finish high school at Point Place in 1977. As one of the few foreigners there, he soon befriended Fez. And that's how he fell in love with Amy.

Poncho: They're giving away free burritos for hispanic people. That's awesome!

Amy: Only for hispanic people?

Poncho: I'm sorry, princesa.

[...]

Poncho, talking to the lady selling burritos: Look, this blonde girl will come here, make a fool out of herself pretending to speak spanish to get a free burrito. If I pay you, can you pretend to believe her?

[...]

Amy: Señoras y señores, buenas tardes, buenas noches! ¡Buenas tardes, buenas noches, señoritas y señores!

[...]

Amy, giggling: See, I got a free burrito.

Poncho: That's great, princesa.

After his graduation, Poncho was notified he was due to leave the country in a week. Amy was devastated and feeling useless for not being able to help her boyfriend. Jackie and Hyde were also living a crisis in their relationship.

Amy: Hyde, are you sure you wanna bitch about Jackie to her best friend? You know I'm always gonna take her side.

Hyde: Whatever.

Amy: No, fuck your whatever bullshit. Why can't you tell her you love her when you so clearly do and she so obviously feels the same? Do you know how hurtful it is to say you love someone and not hear them saying they love you back? It stings, man. It makes you wonder if they do, it makes you doubt their actions. Sometimes words are needed.

Hyde: I don't love people.

Amy: And yet, here you are, practically begging for my help. Guess what? You love Jackie. [sighs] I can understand how you're feeling. I get that, because of whatever happened to you in the past, you have commitment and trust issues, and you have trouble opening up. But if you don't fight those demons, you'll always be afraid.

Hyde: I'm not afraid...

Amy: Yes, you are. And it's a shame. The man I love will leave the country in a few days, after that I won't be able to tell him I love him. And guess what? I can't change that! Jackie's not leaving and she loves you, but she needs reassurance. It's not like she's asking for marriage. [gasps] I'm a genius!

That was the last time anyone saw Amy before she (and Poncho) went missing for a whole day. Their friends and family were about to call the police, when they showed up, laughing and smiling.

Red: Look, the dumbasses decided to show up.

Kitty: You kids almost killed us with worry. Where were you? And Alfonso, don't you have to leave the country tomorrow?

Poncho, smiling at Amy: Not anymore.

Amy: WE GOT MARRIED!

style

proud feminist, latina and bisexual.

friends

Amy and Jackie became best friends before they met the gang, they are classmates and cheerleaders. They love makeup, fashion and romantic movies.

When Amy found out about Kelso's affair with Laurie, she immediately told her friend and kicked the crap outta the moron. She made sure Jackie never took him back.

She also supported her bff when Jackie and Hyde got together after their Veteran's Day date. Amy threatened to torture him if he hurt her friend.

Amy got along with Donna pretty well, they always liked to talk about feminism. But she was very disappointed with the redhead when she found out Donna knew about Kelso's cheating and never told Jackie.

They were never the same after that, even though Amy were still fond of Donna.

Amy was never a fan of Michael Kelso. Since the day he asked Jackie out on a date, she knew he was trouble. She thinks he can be a nice person, but also a terrible boyfriend and a dumbass.

She broke his nose and gave him a black eye when she found out about his affair with Laurie. She also wrote "don't date kelso" on the city welcome sign.

Foreigners must stick together!

Amy loves Fez dearly. They're the only foreigners in Point Place High, but she has no idea where the hell his homeland is.

When he told her he also liked boys, she wasn't surprised. She even introduced him to a friend of hers.

Amy is always making fun of Eric, but they get along pretty well. Except when he calls Jackie the devil or she says that Leia wants Han, not Luke.

Jackie, Fez, Amy and Eric went to roller disco together. It was awesome!

Amy and Hyde love to talk shit about the government, it's what they do best. She helps him plan his dates with Jackie and threatens to put her foot up his ass if he makes her bestie cry.

When he thought Jackie was cheating on him and was about to make a mistake, she reminded him of every time Jackie showed how much she loved him. And also, of her own threats.
