HERIDAS DE AMOR - AUG. 28, 2006

Miranda and Father Santiago are in the chapel. She tells him that it seems strange that her father would not have known Alejandro’s father since everyone else seemed to have known him. She says she feels someone is hiding something. Father Santiago thinks back to the scene in his office when his nephew, Alejandro, and Fernanda were begging him to help her stall for time enough to win over her 3 daughters and not to tell Miranda or the others that she is really their mother. Then Miranda says that Alejandro knows Bertha has a briefcase of papers of his fathers and he’s ready to get it back at all cost. Bertha wants to take advantage of this in order to keep him at her side.
Miranda shocks the priest by telling him Bertha is in love with Alejandro.

Back at Amparo and Francisco’s house the brother and sister are joking about her being stood up by Ramon. Raul walks in and argues with his dad about wanting to go with Lizania to a friend’s hacienda for a couple of days. Eventually Francisco gives in, but warns Raul to behave respectfully around Lizania. He’s in no mood to become a grandpa so soon.....

Back at the mansion in Mexico City Bertha is buckling up the briefcase when Miranda knocks, enters, and orders her aunt to tell her the truth about what happened between her aunt, her mother, and Alejandro’s mother and father years ago. Bertha warns Miranda never to dare lay a hand on her again and never to try ordering her around, either. Miranda answers that she knows her aunts characteristic tricks and she’s not playing that game with her anymore so not to avoid answering the question. Bertha warns Miranda that she’s getting dangerously close to finding out a truth that she will not like and to just let the dead rest in peace. At that moment she sees Miranda’s eyeing the briefcase on the bed there. Miranda asks for the truth again but Bertha just smiles evilly and whispers for her to “search” herself. “You’re so close to it you’re butting up against it. So look!” she whispers again, smiling like the cat who ate the canary. Miranda walks out disgusted and wonders what all her aunt’s riddles meant. Right then her cell rings and it is Alejandro telling her he couldn’t go to bed tonight thinking she was still angry with him. She laughs and asks him if he’s actually serious and he says yes. Tomorrow he’s going to visit her dad and ask for her hand formally. Nothing should ever come between them. She accepts his proposal this time and tells him she knows where Bertha is keeping the briefcase of his dad’s as she’s just seen it. She tells him she’ll get it back for him.

Juan is tucking Florencia into bed and she’s depressed because Fabricio was gone all afternoon and evening. She figure’s she’s alone in this problem carrying the baby to term and all. Juan says absolutely not. Florencia admits she’s behaved badly around Dr. Fernanda and she only wants to bless her these days. Juan assures her Fernanda doesn’t hold grudges, then leaves the room. He’s entering into the hallway when Renata comes by and begins insulting him telling him if he were so decent he’d be long gone by now. He gives it right back at her telling her she’s the rude, low class person there, not him. He’s been the gentleman all along. Besides, if he's so awful, why’s she staring at him? She stomps off and Tomasa walks by asking him if he’s interested in Renata. He tells her he’s absolutely charmed by her. He never imagined his madrina might have a daughter as beautiful as Renata. Tomasa warns him not to set his sights so high because Renata will no doubt never return the feeling. He agrees and says not to worry about him.

Fabricio finally returns home to bed very late in the evening. He lies to his wife about having been at his mothers ranch all this time, but he’s guiltily remembering how he’s spent the time making love to Veronica in some hidden corner of the hacienda. Unwittingly Florencia tries to make love with him and they begin kissing, but he can’t continue and leaves the bed to take a bath. He’s “tired”.

Veronica is confiding in Erica about the time she spent with Fabricio earlier when Renata comes in. Veronica and she argue about how ridiculously rude she’s been toward Juan. Renata tells her the next time she says something mean about her she’ll kick her out and back she goes to Mexico City. After she leaves, Veronica tells Erica that she’ll do what she pleases and stick around just as long as she has a mind to. Renata has picked on the wrong person.

The next morning Fernanda tells Julio he’s being discharged. Julio thanks her for her wonderful medical care. He asks her where she’s been and why she really left so long ago. Nobody knew anything of her after that. She responds that Gonzalo certainly did and he made her life Hell all those years. Julio says he never could believe her morals were as lacking as that. She tells him they weren’t. The man wasn’t her lover and he was kissing her by force when Gonzalo appeared. He sent her off without letting her explain a word of it. Julio says he figured this. He says their friendship ended long ago and they only continue together because of the demands of the business. “Anyway, Gonzalo is hardly the one to cast the first stone!” He shocks Fernanda by telling her that before they got married, Gonzalo and Bertha were lovers first.

Luciano and Alejandro are at the gym first in the sauna and then getting massages and swmming. While there they talk about whether Alejandro should continue with his plans for vengeance. Alejandro says he’s definitely not going back on the idea. In fact, he plans on also asking Gonzalo for Miranda’s hand. Luciano warns him that she will hate him if she ever finds out. Alejandro says he figures she won’t find out and if she does, by then she’ll be married to him. So Luciano advises him he’ll start preparing the prenuptial agreement, but Alejandro says he doesn’t want that. Miranda will baulk and he could very well lose her over something like that. Luciano says that he has no choice because his dad’s will stated that one had to be drawn up and signed or the inheritance passes to Daira and Lizania. Alejandro says, well, if he doesn’t get back that briefcase of his fathers there won’t be any inheritance to give over!!

Bertha sits down as Miranda is finishing her breakfast on the patio. Miranda is going back that day to the hacienda to deal with the employee problems. Bertha tells her that when she finds out she had nothing to do with any of that she expects an apology and given at her feet. Miranda answers that “neither that nor the face of God will you ever see, Bertha!” Miranda then leaves and sneaks into Bertha’s room to look for the briefcase, but she hasn’t got enough time to look further. She figures she’ll wait till Bertha is gone.

Bertha physically abuses Charo while Juan tries to get Florencia to exercise in the pool. He goes swimming and Renata insults him again. Then Veronica and Erica show up and she begins flirting with him also! At the same time Roman shows up with flowers at Amparo’s door and apologizes for standing her up the night before. She invites him in for coffee and asks him if he’s married, single, divorced, or a widower. He’s single but doesn’t figure for long, and later he tells his story. She tells him Florencia’s story and how she suffered all those years and why.

At the prison Gonzalo tells Alejandro how someone tried to attack him and will probably again. He also complains that Miranda came there with Cesar, who has convinced her that he’s totally innocent and a victim of her father’s; Gonzalo worries that the miserable wretch will try something with one of his daughters. Alejandro tells him not to worry and then asks for Miranda’s hand, saying he wants to marry in a short while. Meanwhile, Luciano is conducting the council meeting of the shareholding associates. He tells them that the company is bankrupt and to sell the shares, the company must go up for sale. Miranda overhears this and comes in to say, never! The company is not going to be put up for sale ever. Luciano tells her she’s twenty minutes early and must leave. She goes out to wait for Vicente.

At the prison Vicente comes in with the news that Juilo’s sons just called saying they’re withdrawing the complaint. Gonzalo will be getting out on bail now while they try to discover who really committed the fraud at the company. Alejandro quietly observes while Gonzalo tells Vicente that he must stall the meeting of the shareholders until he gets out of the prison and can meet with them and must avoid Miranda’s involvement there. It’s obvious that Gonzalo is hiding something. Alejandro agrees that Gonzalo should arrange a meeting with Julio’s sons. After Vicente leaves, he asks Gonzalo what the problem is. Gonzalo avoids answering straight. (He remembers that Miranda is the true owner of the company and if this becomes known at the meeting because of the clauses in the company rules and mandated proceedings, she will be put in jail in her father’s place to face trial.) Instead, Gonzalo asks him to help him financially by becoming a partner in order to infuse the company with the cash it needs to become solvent again. Alejandro smiles at this.

Veronica insults and angers Renata again while at the pool. She tells her that Renata and Juan are both alike and thieves. She’s overplayed her hand and Renata kicks her out and says the driver will take her to the airport as soon as she’s packed. She is no longer welcome there.

Luciano is trying to buy up shares for a fraction when Alejandro calls up to ask if Miranda’s entered the meeting room yet. He instructs Luciano to demand the clauses be acted upon and that under no circumstance is he to give in on any negotiating point. Miranda and Vicente enter the meeting room. Luciano demands the official meeting and proceedings begin. He asks that because Miranda is not an associate she must comply with the rules and leave the room. She gets up to do so but Vicente stops her and says precisely because of the rules in these proceedings Miranda must stay. Luciano is confounded. He stands there wondering what shoe is going to drop next and where Vicente is going with this.

Thank you for the explanation of what Gonzalo and Vicente were talking about at the jail. I couldn't understand what the deal was, but now it all makes sense.
 

The other night I saw some familiar faces on ''Cantado por un Sueno''[or whatever the show's title is]---Antonia from ''Amor'', Diego and AntoniO from ''Alborada''---they were all singing in a competition of some sort---I also think I saw the friar from ''Alborada.'' Susanlynn
 

Since many of us are watching both Fea and Heridas de Amor, I must share with you that someone told me Mundo de Fieras (coming soon at the 9pm slot) is supposed to be great- a NOT TO MISS novela.
Now, I cannot watch 3 hours of novelas, so I'm hoping someone can tell me that perhaps MUNDO is not supposed to be that great?!
I can't give up FEA or HERIDAS, so what to do?
 

Use a vcr and catch up on the weekends? It has a terrific cast and is written and directed by a hugely popular and respected duo. So, even if the storyline lags a bit, it is still bound to be a satisfying experience.
 

I never thought I would be able to keep up with even one show, but I'm keeping up with two, Fea and Heridas. I only actually get to watch maybe 1-2 Fea and 2-3 Heridas each week but the recaps here keep me caught up. If we can get someone to recap Mundo, then you'll be able to watch all three by taping them all, reading the recaps, and then watching the episodes where the good stuff happens.
 

Kudos on doing a great job of translating the difficult conversations. The financial ones in particular confuse the heck out of me. Thanks for clarifying!
 

Hey,you're welcome and I'm happy it could actually be understood! I'm just glad I was able to make some sense of it myself! ;?)

I guess, bottom line, it's all been "rules of incorporation" and statutes of the same .... it's enough to make your eyes water and your mouth pucker!
 

Hey I read the recap and just assumed the writer was Melinama. Im sorry I am so late to realize it was a new recapper. Ooops! Welcome! You did a great job. And I too loved being able to read what the business stuff was about. It gives it credibility being able to read it so nicely written. Thanks!
