HERIDAS DE AMOR - Monday, 11/27/06
It is difficult to see exactly what is happening because we see the action through gushing rainwater running over a windowpane. It looks as if Miranda is being attacked by a man in a blue suit (Cesar, presumably), but she gets off a shot and the man runs away. She yells after him, “I’ll burn the hacienda down before I sell it to you, Guapo!” Bertha comes running in and Miranda says it was El Guapo trying to attack her. Bertha swears it could not have been because the place is a safe as a fortress. Miranda sneers back, “That’s what you said the night my father was murdered.” Bertha tells her that was different because it was from the inside while people were allowed free access in and out. Bertha swears that it was not Guapo. “It was Alejandro who shot your father,” and she swears it even on the life of her newborn nephew. Miranda tells her not to strain herself because she will never convince her that it was Alejandro. She then suggests Bertha go see about Nuria’s needs with the new baby but Bertha says she’s too tired and needs to go to bed and leaves.
Miranda decides to lock herself in with Florencia and the baby during the night and goes up to the room. As Berta leaves, the camera pans to the floor and we see blood there. Miranda did hit somebody with that shot. (We are still uncertain whom.) While in the bedroom, Miranda prays for an army of angels to protect the child. (Time for “Carmina Burana” playing in the background 'cause I am thinking of old reruns of The Omen here, considering Berta seems to be the spawn of the Devil himself.)
Juan’s family discusses the flood victims who are being discussed and reported about on the television news. They determine they will collect old clothing, sheets, towels, and the like to assist the needy. They may even join a group of volunteers from the parrish who’re going on a truck to the area to help.
Florencia apparently does not have any breastmilk for the baby. Pamela (miraculously recovered from her delirium just 12 hours earlier), Luciano and Juan then arrive together. Luiciano explains how the night before Alejandro was lent a cell phone by one of the guards, and then called Luciano and Vicente with orders to spare no expense in getting a helicopter there to try to help rescue the two of them. They drove part way and one of the area officials got them one eventually. He assures her that his friend would die were anything to happen to Miranda, he loves her so much. Right then Nuria comes screaming that her baby is dead.
Juan checks the baby out and figures that it died from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. He’ll sign the death certificate accordingly and they can then bury the baby.
Back on the covered patio Arcadia and Gabino are hugging each other out of relief. They look down and see blood drops so Gabino wipes it up with his handkerchief and finds a spent bullet there too. He wraps that in the bloody handkerchief and tells his wife to put it all into a clean bag. (So does Gabino get CSI on his satellite down there? Where else would he get that technique from?)
Then Gabino goes to inform Miranda that huge numbers of survivors of the storm are coming there to the hacienda looking for food and shelter. Berta of course, wants no part of it, but Miranda tells Gabino to have them wait near the storehouses. She is beginning to cough and says to herself that she thinks she has a fever.
Miranda is angry at Berta for not going to see to Nuria last night like she’d asked and going off to bed instead. Juan tells Nuria and her and the others that there is nobody to blame and that nothing could have been done to save it. He tells Nuria then to try to calm herself and realize that even though the baby is gone, life goes on and she must be strong and get over this tragedy, hard as it seems.
Pamela and Luciano take a walk together as she tells him how dangerous and crazy the storm made things. She thought the walls would come tumbling down on them from all the wind. He confesses that it took an event like last night’s to make him realize he couldn’t live without her. He loved her too much. He asks her if she ever thinks about him, and she answers she thinks of him night and day and nothing else. She loves him greatly.
Juan checks out Florencia and comes to tell Miranda her sister is fine, but simply cannot nurse. Bertha comes in and while Juan is there with Miranda suggests that Nuria be Florencia’s wetnurse. Juan agrees that this is the best thing for now since all the roads to town are blocked so there wouldn’t be a way to easily obtain baby formula. Miranda says fine, but to be careful how she approaches this subject and Berta goes up to convince her.
Fernanda visits Father Santiago to tell him she’s heard they all survived the storm, the two girls had their babies, but Nuria’s died from Crib Death. Andrea arrives and Fernanda tells her the news also, and particularly that Pamela is fine.
At first Nuria refuses to be Florencia’s wetnurse because it would be too emotionally hard for her. So, Berta makes her believe that her baby is actually still alive and tells her to trust her about that. (Nuria never trusts in her own common sense. I think those particular neurons in her brain never got connected.). This apparently gives Nuria the psychological push she needs and when Miranda comes a bit after to ask Nuria if it would be all right with her being Florencia’s wetnurse, Nuria agrees.
Miranda continues to cough and appear feverish and much less steady on her feet. (This doesn't stop her from carrying the baby around or coughing in its face, or possibly dropping it though.....) Juan asks to examine her again but she refuses. She says she has so much to do just taking care of the storm victims.
Alejandro meets with his lady lawyer, lovely Liliana López Reyna. She shows him the newspaper articles about the storms in Tobasco around the area of the plantations. Alejandro tells Liliana how Miranda had put all her eggs in this single basket and how the entire family’s future was dependent on this harvest. Now everybody’s harvest and future were ruined. Alejandro blames himself for having destroyed Miranda's life. Liliana says that life is like this and one simply starts over.
At The Manglars out on the patio, Sanson cleans up Cesar’s gunshot wounds. Nati is peeking out from the shadows somewhere near the patio, listening. Sanson assures Cesar that concerning his two jailbird buddies he has done everything Cesar has asked him to, and that Alejandro hasn’t slept a wink since arriving at the prison for fear of being attacked. She hears Cesar tell him to have his two gang-banger buddies there in the prison with Alejandro, that there will be a change of strategy towards him. Psychological tactics aren’t working so he says he now wants “action, action, action!!”
Liliana reiterates that the judge hasn’t made his decision yet and she has asked him to review her petition to reconsider all the facts because there are inconsistencies between Berta and the maid’s statements. Also, the glass shards from the window broke towards the living room area and not out towards the garden from the inside, which suggest a shot from out there and not at close range inside the house. Alejandro wonders why Charo would lie like that. They consider the possibility of her either being an accomplice or being threatened by one or the other or both of them. She explains again that if the judge allows a review then they have a chance, otherwise he will be sentenced. Alejandro asks her what kind of time he’s looking at if he’s senteced for “premeditated murder”? She just stares at him.
Florencia brings the baby to Nuria to nurse. Berta takes him, hands him over to Nuria, and calls him Fabricio. “That is what you’re calling him, right?” Florencia asks for the baby back and angrily tells Berta her baby will be called Gonzalo after her father. Bertha gets a bit upset at this. They go off to the kitchen where Florencia angrily tells her aunt to remember she only accepted her being there on the condition that she would not try to continually try manipulate her or to boss her around. Of course Berta denies she’s been acting at all like it. Miranda comes back with the baby and Berta leaves. Florencia complains afterward to her sister about Bertha. She says she simply cannot stand the woman there, especially as she’s the reason Alejandro is in jail. She keeps quiet around Renata who cannot see through her aunt, but Florencia really has the urge more often than not to take off and slap her silly till she confesses the truth. Miranda assures her that sooner or later Cesar and Berta will be caught in their lies. “A lie cannot be sustained forever.” She hopes that this is what will happen with the two of them.
No one is supposed to know that Cesar is there in Tobasco. Sanson says his mouth is like a tomb. Sanson then says to Cesar that he wants a roll in the hay with Renata and would love to see Juan’s mug when he finds out that Sanson has raped her. Cesar refuses because they have other things planned for her. “However,” Cesar adds, he is returning to New York and she should be dying to shop about now. He plans to invite her along. Cesar says smugly that he will think about Sanson’s request and well fine, but only after Cesar has had her first. Berta drops by then and gives Cesar her sympathies. He asks if his mother has died or something. She says, “No, your son has died.” He looks a bit......... bewildered.
Miranda decides to lock herself in with Florencia and the baby during the night and goes up to the room. As Berta leaves, the camera pans to the floor and we see blood there. Miranda did hit somebody with that shot. (We are still uncertain whom.) While in the bedroom, Miranda prays for an army of angels to protect the child.

Wow, take your eye off this show for a while and it becomes incredibly confusing. Thanks for the recap!
I have this feeling like Cesar is responsible for his own son's death somehow. Or Bertha. One of them did something I'm sure of it.
No question that this baby was NOT a victim of Sudden Crib Death. I think Bertha arranged this death though sometimes it is too confusing to figure out what evil stuff Bertha and Caesar are planning.
What I found incredulous was that scence a while back where Bertha decided she needed to go to sleep because things were getting too out of hand. She just hugged and kissed Lucas and fell fast asleep and woke up refreshed and ready to roll with some new evil plans. Wow! Give us your formula, Bertha!
Not sure how much more evil, death, sickness, and sorrow I can take here. There is so little happiness in this show. Do they think that the happiness of Pamela and Luciano getting together can sustain us here? It cannot. We need a respite.

The director is getting very creative with his camera shots, what with the pregnant shadow behind the white screen, then Miranda/Berta discussion through the rain on the window glass, and then Cesar in the round sunroom where the camera moved around and around the room from the outside... I was getting dizzy! I'm sure there's more but those are the ones I've caught.
i agree with the director's creativiy in these last scenes... i liked the scene behind the water :)
i think univision might have cut the scene where bertha kills the baby: i thought i had seen in the other channel that bertha had opened the window at night and put the baby in front of it...! has she done this to any other baby yet in this novela...? i am almost 100% ceirtain i saw a scene like that.

I THINK THE SCENE YOU ARE THINKING IS THE ONE IN BARRERAS DE AMOR WHERE THE GRANDMA DONA JACINTA, DOES THIS TO HER GRANDSON (SHE DOESN'T KNOW IS HER GRANDSON)

Thank you for mentioning that Miranda is walking around coughing on her friends, her new infant nephew, and the poor displaced children temporarily housed at the hacienda. She's a regular Typhoid Mary.
At least Florencia was staggering around in the episode as if she'd actually had a baby.

Yeah Nuria looked more like she was shoplifting and holding the stuff in her shirt from the bottom to keep it from falling out. Maybe her fake belly for the show kept slipping down so she just held that up.
Oh you meant Monday's show after having the baby. Perhaps putting on tight hoochie pants 30 seconds after giving birth is affecting her walk.
Tonight on Univision---10 pm---''Lo Que No Vio Premios TV y Novelas''---I have no idea what that means, but it's about the awards show on Sunday. ~~~Susanlynn, still bad at Spanish
