Miranda wonders what to do with the cocoa beans that she has in the warehouse. Amparo tells Francisco about Renata's change of attitude and wonders what to do to help Fernanda. Miranda asks Naty how she feels and she tells her not as bad as she does. She gives her a cup of chocolate Miranda tells her she never drinks chocolate at night, Naty tells her is not chocolate is extract of Cocolbosh. Miranda tells her it has something magical in it as Arcaria says it tastes like any other chocolate. Naty tells her she's not the heiress of the cocoa bush, Miranda is. Miranda says she now knows what she's going to to do with the cocoa she has. Alone in her room she tells Alejandro she loves him and he answers her saying he loves her also. The next morning Fernanda tells Santiago she wasn't able to tell Gonzalo the truth. He tells her he has to when Alejandro arrives. Santiago begs his nephew to stop investigating the bank account. Renata didn't sell all the food she had so she gives her the money Berta gave her and Amparo is shocked at the amount.Alejandro tells Santiago that Fermin has to pay for what he did. He advises him to forgive him and that Fermin came to see him. He also tells him if the news becomes public a bigger scandal will occur so he reluctantly backs down. Miranda invites Pamela to the fair. Gonzalo's bothered when he sees Cesar arrive in his office. He tells him to leave as Cesar tells him he's a victim of someone's revenge. Renata tells Erica she doesn't know if she can handle being poor. Veronica arrives and insults her saying if Juan really loves her he would agree to live in the mansion. Miranda tells Pamela she's going to produce chocolate candies and beauty products from the cocoa she has when Florencia arrives and tells her she has a visitor and she finds El Guapo in her office and he tells her he wants to buy the hacienda, because an hacienda like that should not be run by a woman.
Miranda is taken aback and she tells El Guapo, that La Santa Maria is not for sale, and in any case he would have to speak directly with her dad, she asks him to leave and he tells her he knows there's no men on the premises. He tells her not to piss him of or the devil in him could come out and she responds likewise and She orders him to leave and points a gun to him. He gets cloe to her and sniffs her and tells her he will make her 3 offers and that this is the first one.He tells her he'll return for the ranch or for her.
When he leaves the rest of the crew comes in the office and Florencia gets nervous when she sees the gun and asks Miranda what is goinn on, and says her and Nuria are going for a walk, Miranda then orders to no one leave the house. Fermin tells Alejandro that he will do what he asks of him and admits that it was Berta who opend the account. Veronica tells Renata what to do as Erica tells her to stop butting in. Gonzalo tells Vicente that Cesar is like Berta when they opened their mouths all they spit out is venom. Cesar's offended as Gonzalo tells him to just say what he came to say. He tells him he knows he killed a man years earlier but asks him if he's sure he was really dead. He thinks of that night as he asks him what he meant but he gives him the run around. Fermin and Alejandro talk about Berta and Alejandro promises to find a way not to hurt him or his uncle. Erica meets with Raul and tells him what happened between Juan and Renata. Fernanda coaches Carola on how to act in her interview. Cesar tells Gonzalo to investigate the name of the man he killed then he'll know who wants to get revenge on him. Vicente tells Gonzalo that Cesar knows more than he knows and he agrees saying that only name that comes to his mind is Alejandro Luque. Cesar believes he's won. Miranda learns from Gabino that Alejandro got in a fight with El Guapo.

Thank you so much Gloria!

Are you enjoying the show?

I have a little request: could you leave some space between paragraphs or sentences next time so it's easier on my OLD EYES? Thanks!

Glad you're with us.

What do you think of the character your man Guy is playing?
 

Yes Gloria give us some insider skinny!

Thanks for the recap.
 

Is it just me or are there a lot of Public service announcements in this novela?

First, there was the safe sex warning Juan gave to Fab, Then Veronica got AIDs and is lectured by her doctor, Then we get the family planning speech from Juan. The topper was last night when Fernanda hands Carola those folders and pamphlets from "The Televisa Foundation" which give grants to women who are trying to get ahead."
 

As for public service announcements, that seems to be common fare on these shows. We've also had the drugs promo and I think all that's left is the obligatory alchoholic's trip to AA.
 

And don't forget the many, many public service announcements about homosexuals in Barrera: "It's nobody's fault, it just happens, and it's ok to use the correct word: homosexuals. We all just want to be happy."

I don't mean to put any of these messages down. They just seem to be delivered in somewhat, uh, stilted fashion.
 

Oh, sorry. I forgot abused women.
 

Thanks Gloria!

Do you (or does anybody) know what cocolbosh is?
 

Cacaotal means cocoa plantation.

Cocolbosh I cant find but I did find this "Cocoa is the dried and partially fermented fatty seed of the cacao tree from which chocolate is made."

In Thursdays show Miranda and Pamela were trying the centers of fresh picked cacao. Im guessing all things good come from this!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocoa
 

I was wondering what they were eating. I thought that was ever inside had been made into candy and put back inside the pod, that it wasn't actually the coco beans. I've tasted coco beans (seeds, actually) straight from the pod and they are so bitter that they make your hair stand on end. The end product we taste is heavily processed, sugar added, sometimes vanilla and cinnamon (in the case of mexican chocolate). The aztecs (or maybe even earlier, like the Maya) used to do it in a way that added more herbal flavors. Then the dutch developed a chemical way to do it that made chocolate commercially successful in Europe. I am guessing that the cocolbush is one of these old, traditional ways of making chocolate in Mexico, that come from the native peoples.
