Barrera de Amor recap: September 13
- The ancient Maldonados and their ancient friends (that's Jose, Josefa, Josefina, the old dude who put salt in Sergio's tea, and Sergio) sit on a couch saying they should go to Aguascalientes and help Maite, who still doesn't know she's a member of this wealthy, aristocratic family.
- Federico is - gasp - almost hit by a speeding car as he gets out of his own car. He swears in annoyance. Guess who's in the speeding car, it's Unibrow and a henchman. They almost hit Federico on PURPOSE! That'll show him! This is the beginning of Unibrow's brilliant plan! Tonight, Unibrow is wearing a tight, foam green suit. We will speak no more of it.
- Maite spends all night with Valeria, who is delirious. She recognizes the symptoms and realizes Jacinta is drugging Valeria's tea. Maite hides in the closet and watches Jacinta enter, with the doctor, who says Valeria is fine. Valeria wants the baby back; Jacinta says "Nonsense! You have to rest!"
- Somehow, Nicolas has possession of Federico's birth certificate, which proves Federico is a Valladolid. Manola and her dad fear Federico will pulverize them if he finds out they knew of his parentage all along - but Manola wants to keep it quiet until Jacinta dies and Rodrigo inherits.
- Gustavo gets Elvira to send Nicolas a fax, on Gustavo's letterhead, saying: "I saw you kissing Jacaranda in Mexico City." No signature. Now Nicolas is really freaked, since only Jacaranda and the supposedly dead Gustavo knew this. His hand-washing kicks up a notch. Manola, ever practical, steals him some tranquilizers and says if he doesn't start taking them "I'll get a specialist to lock you up."
- Veronica is sprung from the mental hospital for a nice weekend in Aguascalientes with all the murderers, lunatics, and ugly guys in foam green suits. In Victor's apartment she sees a picture of Victor and Guillermo. Guillermo and Mommy show up. "What are they doing here?" Victor: "Uh, they're house-sitting for me."
After Veronica and Victor leave, Mommy asks: "Doesn't she know that you are ... you are ..." "Mommy, don't be afraid to use the correct word, HOMOSEXUALS. And no, the doctor said we should not tell her till she's cured." - Remember the bouncing undergrad who offered her favors to Octavio in exchange for a better grade? She offers again, he turns her down again and threatens to call her parents. Federico just happens to be lounging furtively nearby when the girl and her friend discuss this. He interjects: "I think I can help - together we can get rid of this idiot."
Later in the episode Octavio is intercepted by an official on his way to class and is taken in for questioning, no doubt concerning an accusation the girl has made against him. - The Bonbon, in a skimpy bikini, poolside with Andres and his chest hair, jumps in the pool and pretends to drown. He dives in, drags her out, and is giving her mouth-to-mouth resuscitation when she laughs and kisses him. Oh, Andres honey, it was just my cute little trick! A paparazzi gets photos.
- Jacinta tells her chauffeur she won't be going to church today. He is barely out the door when Federico idly and loudly remarks, "Oh, so THOSE are the famous powders you used on Maite so long ago and which you are now using on Valeria!" "Why, yes, I want to keep her drugged until her mother leaves town." The chauffeur, just outside the door, hears all.
Valeria doesn't want the tea - "I feel it's hurting me" - but Jacinta insists. "Drink it all, drink every last drop, drink it, drink it, drink it..." As Valeria drinks, Jacinta tells her once again how evil her mother the prostitute is.
Valeria then tells Jacinta: "I dreamed my mother was here last night, taking care of me." Jacinta guesses that was no dream. She tells the servants to lock the windows tight - she's sure Maite will be back again.

Jacinta is worse than Juana. Juana felt remorse and knew she had messed up. Jacinta on the other hand thinks she is doing Gods work.
