La Fea Más Bella #160 12/5/06 True love can create miracles

I apologize if I left anything important out of the summary. It's final exam time for me, so my mind is a little distracted! If I missed or explained anything incorrectly please put a post and myself or one of the lovely Fea ladies will try to help you! Thanks for your understanding!
Lety wonders if Fernando deserves her help. She paces her office, unsure of what to do.

In the bathroom the cuartel and la Oxi continue their war of the words. Sara challenges Alicia to try and stop her. Alicia tell them that even if they wore all of Alicia’s make-up they would not be allowed to enter the event. To prove her point, Alicia calls Marcia to tell her that the cuartel is meddling with the event. The cuartel tease her for calling Marcia, just like a little scared schoolgirl. Lola tells Alicia not to be ridiculous and to hang up the phone. Alicia continues with her conversation and asks Marcia if the cuartel is can go to the event. Sara fights for the control of the phone. Alicia warns Marcia that the cuartel just want to convince her to let them to go to the event. Alicia holds the phone up so that the cuartel can hear Marcia scream out that shouldn’t even think about going. Alicia triumphantly wiggles out of the bathroom with her clown kit.

Luigi and the dancers enter the dressing room and applaud themselves. Luigi calls the girls divine. Luigi II (we’ll call him Two) enters and high fives Luigi. Luigi again flatters the dancers. Luigi tells Juan not to allow Irmita to do anything. (Juan is the hair guy) He brings a chair over to Irmita and tells her she’s not allowed to move from the chair and to supervise from the chair. Irmita says she’ll stay.

Alicia continues talking to Marcia. The cuartel exits the bathroom at the same time Fernando and Omar gets off the elevator. Alicia hangs up with Marcia and walks over to Fernando to ask if she can go with him to the event. He and Omar laugh. Fernando says no. Alicia asks Fernando if he’s going alone. Yes, Fernando confirms and emphasizes that he is going alone. The cuartel say good-bye to everyone, but not before Lopez comes out to tell PM she can’t leave. PM asks Fernando if it’s her hour to leave. He agrees. Lopez says that’s true, but she has too much work to do before she can leave.

Luigi nervously walks around the dressing room. He tells Two how to do the dancer’s make-up. He talks to the dancers and then moves Irmita to the couch. He’s freaking out because Ha-ash is not there yet. Marcia walks into the room and asks Luigi to guess who came to the event. He guesses Ricky Martin, but he gets crazy Ana Leticia! Luigi makes over her and how beautiful she is.

PM and Lopez argue some more about staying. Fernando comes over to Lopez and half embraces him. Fernando asks Lopez if he’s going to the event. Lopez tells Fernando that he is not going. Fernando tells Lopez that he’ll miss him at the event! Lopez says he would love to go, but since Martha has been incapacitated, work is behind. He needs PM to help him with this urgent work. PM pleads with Fernando to let her go to the event. Fernando tells PM he would love to let her go to the event, but Lopez is her boss. Fernando whispers to Lopez to be good. Lopez tells PM to cancel her plans and go back to work. They’re going to be staying very late in the office – the two of them… alone.

Omar and Fernando talk in Fernando’s office about the balance again. Omar hopes that God will bless them. Fernando sarcastically agree. They pensively look at “God’s” office.

Sara volunteers to stay with PM. The rest of the cuartel agrees. PM worries about the kids, but Juana say she’ll take care of it. Saimon enters. He goes on about his future as a computer programmer and then snuggles up to PM. She tells him that Lopez is making her stay in the office. Saimon says that PM can not possibly stay alone. The cuartel tells him that they’re all staying too. Saimon gives one of his little speeches.

Omar and Fernando enter Lety’s office and ask if the balance is done. She tells that it is not. They cannot believe that Lety does not have the balance finished. Omar tries to calm Fernando, who replies (not so calmly) that he is very calm. Fernando tells Omar to leave. Omar exits the office. Fernando asks Lety to honestly answer if she doesn’t want to make up the balance.

Luigi dances around with AL. She walks over to the dancers and does some weird move. She describes her plastic surgery to Luigi. They took some things and they put some things into her body. Luigi tells AL that her boobs are nice, but what did they take. He checks her waist to see if it really is smaller. Marcia looks at and talks to AL like she cannot believe that’s really her sister. Luigi take AL back over to the dancers. Marcia asks Irmita what she’s doing there. Irmita tells Marcia that Luigi needs her (Irmita).

Lety tells Fernando that they’ll discover if she wants to make up the balance. Fernando reminds Lety how important it is for him that she fakes the balance. His life, his future, his credibility, his honor is in her hands. He reminds her that he loves her and is depending on her completely.

Carolina enters to tell Luigi that Ha-ash and some of the invitees have arrived. She greets AL. AL asks Marcia where Fernando is. AL reads Marcia’s face and asks if she and Fernando cancelled the wedding. AL reminds Marcia that she acquired her new appearance just for the wedding. AL loudly asks if the happy couple are having problems. Marcia pulls AL to the side to calm her and says that she and Fernando are having some problems. AL loudly asks if Fernando has a lover. In the funniest move Marcia’s made in a long, long time she chokes AL and tells her to be quiet.

Fernando tells Lety that it’s obvious that she no longer wants him, but if she ever cared about him and if any of this sentiment remains, would she please, please fix the balance. He begs. He needs her, she doesn’t know how much. He tells her that he loves her and she sadly replies that she loves him as well. He comes over and kisses her. She doesn’t resist.

Fernando’s phone rings; Lety breaks the kiss and tells him to answer. He screeches out a hello. Marcia asks why he is speaking to her with so much hate. She says it’s for the invitees and his parents. He says that he’s on his way. Fernando hangs up. Lety tells him good night. He says that he cannot leave Lety like this. He asks again if she’s going to fake the balance for him. Lety says she’ll fix the balance tonight. She tells Fernando that she’s not going to the event, that she would rather remain at Conceptos, working. He promises that tomorrow Marcia Villaroel will disappear from his life. He says that it will be their day. He kisses her good-bye and says he’ll see her tomorrow. Lety breaks down in tears.

Fernando leaves the office and runs into the cuartel. He asks why they’re still all there. They tell him that they’re staying for PM. Sara pets Fernando’s tie. Omar enters and they leave for the event. Omar asks if Lety is going to fake the balance. When Fernando says yes, Omar asks how Fernando got her to do it. Fernando explains that he just spoke honestly with Lety. Omar tries to make a joke out of it but Fernando says the only important thing is that Lety is going to fix the balance. Alicia enters the room and asks Omar if he can give her a ride to the event. Fernando gets a kick out of the fact that Alicia wants to go to the event with Omar. He says that it is the least that Omar should have to do for her. Omar begrudgingly accepts. Alicia asks if it will bother Fernando if she rides in Omar’s car. Fernando says as long as it’s not his (Fernando’s) car it’s fine.

AL and Caro walk around the event. AL asks Caro if she knows if Fernando has a lover. Caro won’t give up any information so AL says she’ll go with Luigi because he’s more fun. Meanwhile, Humberto asks Marcia where is Fernando. She says he’s finishing things at the office and then will be there. Humberto cannot believe that Fernando would miss this great event. Marcia says this won’t happen. Caro enters the scene and tells everyone that the Luigi and Ha-ash are prepared for the festival. Humberto continues talking about Fernando’s absence. Marcia throws back some champagne.

Lety stares at Fernando’s photo on her monitor. She remembers the conversation they just had in her office and the kiss that followed. Lety resolves to herself to help Fernando. PM, Lola and Sara enter to ask if Lety is going to the event. Lety lies and says she wasn’t invited. She also tells them that she’ll be at the office until about eleven at night. They ask about the balance. She tells the cuartel that it’s finished. They tell Lety about the confrontation with Lopez. Sara volunteers to help Lety, but refuses the help. Lety explains that she’s working with confidential information. The cuartel reminds her that they’ll be outside in the secretaries’ area if Lety needs their help. They leave the office and Lety turns back to the picture on the monitor. She says that she will fake the balance because she doesn’t want to destroy Fernando and because she continues to be very much in love with Fernando.

Fernando pushes Alicia out of his way to get to his parents and their group. Humberto scolds Fernando for being late. He asks Fernando if he has everything ready for the meeting tomorrow. Fernando says yes, of course. Omar comes over to greet Humberto. Fernando walks over to Marcia and leans in for a kiss. Marcia rejects him. Teresita doesn’t miss a moment and notices the chilly reception.

Tomas calls Lety and asks what’s going on. Lety tells him that she spoke with Fernando and that Fernando needs her and the fake balance. She cannot ruin his life. Tomas sarcastically says he can understands. Tomas scolds her. He asks Lety if she’s going to continue to allow Fernando to take advantage of her. No, she says. Tomorrow, Conceptos will be over for her. She asks Tomas if he has Filmo Imagen’s balance ready. Yes, he replies. She tells Tomas that all of this will be over tomorrow and then she’s going to disappear. Tomas says he hopes Lety knows what she’s doing, she’s saving Fernando. Lety says she’s tired all of the vengeance. Tomas thinks that Lety is still being deceived. He says he doesn’t want her crying to him anymore. Lety says she is not going to cry anymore. She knows very well what she is doing. Tomas asks Lety how late she is working. She tells him that she’ll be at the office until about 11pm. Tomas asks if Lety wants him to come for her. Of course she tells him, and then asks why he wants to know. He reminds her that tonight is his final night with Alicia. Alicia invited him to dinner in her apartment at 10pm. She asks how Alicia will feed him if she doesn’t even have enough money to feed herself. He tells Lety that love causes miracles. Yeah, because everything turned out so well with Fernando. Tomas explains that his situation is different. Lety tells Tomas to go out with his Oxi. She warns him to be careful. Tomas asks how Lety is going to get home. She says she’ll figure it out, but he is not allowed to shut off his phone. He tells her he loves her and then hangs up the phone so he can solve his problems with his coat.

At the event Alicia to Marcia complains that the Cannes event has not started. Caro passes Alicia and confirms the show will start soon. Caro walks off to greet some man from Televisa. Marcia asks Alicia why Alicia doesn’t leave, if she’s in such a hurry. Alicia says that she must stay and socialize with everyone. Marcia says no one will notice if Alicia leaves. Alicia pretends to be offended. Alicia says that she needs “someone” to take her to the supermarket. Marcia declares several times that she will not take Alicia to the market. Alicia quietly curses Marcia. Meanwhile, Caro talks to some man that I’m supposed to know, but I just don’t. They walk off the stage to find Luigi.

Luigi reminds the dancers, again, that they’re dancing for an important, celebratory event. AL gives her two cents as well. Everyone except Luigi loves it. Caro enters with the man who’s name I’m supposed to know. (MWNISTK). Luigi introduces AL to MWNISTK. Caro warns Luigi that the show should be starting. Luigi puts Caro in charge of MWNISTK. She, MWNISTK and AL struggle to get through the door frame.

Fernando speaks with Humberto about the business and the Golden Lion that Conceptos won. Teresita is proud that their business won such a magnanimous award. Caro enters ands asks if everyone is ready. Humberto says that Ariel has not arrived. Fernando thinks they should start anyway because this is obviously not important to Ariel. Humberto agrees. Caro walks to the microphone and greets everyone. She thanks everyone for coming. Teresita asks Marcia what’s going on with Fernando. Marcia says that it’s nothing, just like always.

Luigi paces the dressing room. The moment of truth has arrived! He’s freaking out. Irmita calms him with his herbal remedy.

Caro goes over how important this award is for Conceptos and for Mexico. She introduces Fernando. Fernando acknowledges his father and the work that he put in to make Conceptos the company that it is. Humberto holds up the Golden Lion. Humberto says he wasn’t sure that Fernando could assume the presidency, but now under Fernando’s direction Conceptos won this great prize! Fernando thinks to himself that if his father only knew that the company was embargoed. Humberto thanks Teresita as well and to everyone who has taken part in Conceptos. Alicia and Omar lead Teresita to the stage. (The boobies must have weighed her down). Teresita gives another rousing speech with lots of thanks. Alicia brushes her hair and ask Marcia if she looks okay. She must look good when Humberto calls her to the stage. Marcia sarcastically laughs. Humberto thanks Marcia who drunkenly enters the stage. She says thanks and giggles. Omar comes up to the stage to say a few words and gets a little emotional while talking about the fight for this dream. Humberto gives special thanks to Luigi. Alicia stands before Humberto says her name, thinking that she is the one who will get special thanks. Luigi cries and says nothing. Fernando leaves the stage with Marcia chasing close behind.

Lety’s phone rings. Fernando asks Lety how everything is going. She says that the balance is going okay. Fernando says he’s asking about her, not the balance. Some girl enters and asks if she can help Fernando remove her scarf from his buttons. He pushes her away. Fernando asks how Lety feels. She says she’s fine. Next he asks Lety if she needs something to eat. Lety says that she’s okay. Fernando says that he’s very happy. Lety says that’s good and that the balance will be done tomorrow. HE says that he’ll come by at eleven. Lety says that’s not necessary. “For you, no, but for me, yes.” He hangs up and leaves the room. Marcia listens to the whole conversation in the background. For once, Fernando doesn’t end the conversation with an “I love you.”

I couldn’t think of a good spoiler so here’s a little regalito from me to you. It will make sense tomorrow. ;-)

Entraste como un rayo de luz
Como un aire encantador
Liberaste con tu hechizo
A mi recluso corazón

You entered like a ray of light
Like an enchanted air.
You liberated with your spell,
My imprisoned heart.

Tu dulzura corrió por mis venas
Creí en tu intención
No pensé que fuese un engaño
Ni una mentira tu amor

Your sweetness ran through my veins
I believed in your intention.
I didn’t think it was deception
or a lie, your love.

Me dices que te esta llamando
Te vas sin un adiós
Sé muy bien que harás en sus brazos
Dime que hago yo

You tell me that she’s calling you.
You leave without good-by.
I know very well what I would do in your arms.
Tell me, what do I do?

CORO
Que hago con mis labios
Si me ruegan tus besos
Que hago con mis manos
Cuando suplican tu regreso
Que hago con mis noches
Que hago con mis días
Que hago con tu esencia que se aferra a la mía
Dime que hago yo

Chorus:
What do I do with my lips,
If they beg for your kisses?
What do I do with my hands
When they plead for your return?
What do I do with my nights?
What do I do with my days?
What do I do with your essence that clutches to mine?

Hablamos solo cuando puedes
Te abrazo al esconder
Que no haría para tenerte
A mi lado al amanecer

We talk only when you can
I emrace you in hiding
What I wouldn’t do to have
you at my side at daybreak


Mis amigos dicen que te olvide
Que antes de ti no era igual
Antes de ti mi vida no tenia sentido
Antes de ti no sabia amar

My friends say that I forgot you
That before you there was no equal.
Before you my life did not have sentiment;
Before you I did not know how to love.

Have a great night, everyone!

Thanks so much Amanda, great recap!I love the great kissing scenes between Fern and Lety now! I love it that her bitterness has ended.
I'm disliking Marcia more and more each day. Harpy Shrew is a perfect description for her. She is so desperate to hang on to Fernando, yet, so angry and full of hate towards him. You always got the glimpses of Lety's love even when she was angry. I don't see any love coming from Marcia anymore. This will be quite an unfriendly union should the wedding take place.
Carrie L.
 

Omar's fight for his dream?? Ha ha ha! What has he done for anybody lately?? (Besides drive Alicia to the event?)

I mostly fast-forwarded through this episode so I especially needed this recap. I didn't notice that Ana-Leticia looked different, though, except for her hair. I'll have to re-watch!

Like Marcia, I find it hard to believe that A-L is a Villaroel. Hmm... wonder what the Villaroels' milkman was like... if he was a total space cadet, that would explain a lot. ;-)
 

OMG, that kiss!!! Why did Marcia have to call and break it up. She must have some sort of radar that can detect whenever Lety and Fer have a mini-break-thru in their relationship.
 

Great scene with Letty and Fern you could really feel the love and her pain. I've come to the conclusion that all these stupid scenes between Oxi and Tomas are simply filler that they used to unnecessarily pad the show to extend its length. Sometimes I wish I'd just tape it so i could FF through those scenes and anything with PM in it.

Have to laugh at Oxi carrying an entire make-up counter around with her. I know it takes a lot of make-up to look like you aren't wearing any but she takes the cake.
 

This was a great episode. We got a glimpse of Fernando’s true motives…he doesn’t want to disappoint his father. I think it is a feeling we can all relate to and at some point in our lives encountered.

Now he’s dug himself so deep that each day becomes more difficult and complicated. I think Fern and Omar are trying to be optimistic about the outcome of the situation, but deep down they know the “__it is about to hit the fan.”

I can’t wait to see what Lety has planned for the meeting. I don’t think she intended to do the fake balance sheet, but Fern changed her mind at the last minute. How can she not tell that he is being so honest about his love for her? I loved his speech about her holding his life in her hands. Despite everything, it is not in her to knowingly hurt him.

Yesterday was a turning point for Marcia. She has been ignoring the situation for long enough and it took her ditzy sister yelling it across the room to open her eyes. I loved seeing her knock back the champagne, tomorrow should be great.

Irmita calms him with his herbal remedy. - if I hadn't been watching this show and knowing better, I would think that meant that they got in a little "That 70's Show" circle in the basement and smoked up.
 

This is purely a rhetorical question but why can't Lety be eavesdropping at the door when Fern is defending her honor, her name, her brilliance, and basically showing how much he loves her to Omar? Just one teeny tiny time wouldn't hurt would it? A little crumb that would help her (and us too) stop feeling so crummy. ha ha. Sandy

P.S. I loved clown kit. It looks like she carries one of those free with gift promotional things you see in dept stores
 

I'm optomistic that the writers have been working hard to make Marcia more despisable so that Fern can dump her right before the wedding without making the audience feel bad for her. Crossing my fingers...
 

I'm thinking Alicia must have stolen her clown kit, because Luigi's dog supposedly ruined all her makeup a few months ago. Marcia gave her some new makeup as a gift, but it all fit in a small bag. (Alicia complained that it wasn't her usual brand.) Maybe what we saw yesterday was her Emergency Backup Makeup Kit.
 

Awesome recap! I had to miss last night, but I recorded it and can't wait to watch. I get the spoiler, too! It makes me happy.
 

Great scenes with Fern and Lety, thanks for the recap. Interesting that other characters are now noticing and commenting on the cracks in the Fern-Marcia relationship. Can we hope for a major split before the wedding?
 

Thanks SO much for the recap!!! I'm so glad we got a Lety/Fer kiss today, I was going through kiss withdrawal. But I could have sworn Lety said "No te amo" instead of "Yo te amo". I guess I got the yo confused with yo. I loved the kiss of course but was totally pissed that Marcia had to interrupt it. She has impeccable timing when it comes to interrupting Fer e Lety. It would have been cool, not to mention romantic if Fer had turned his phone off and gone back to kissing Lety or just ignore it altogether!!! It's not like he wanted to answer it anyway.
Speaking of Lety that girls got some incredible willpower. I don't know that I would be as strong. Can't she just give into her love for Fer one more time??? Gosh I love this couple!!
 

Thanks so much, Amanda, for the recap. Fernando is getting more annoyed and sharper with every contact with Marcia until she can no longer ignore it. Maybe he will finally blow and let it all out. When you are so annoyed with someone that you want to grit your teeth when they call you and you cannot contain your annoyance, it sometimes takes the least little thing and then you blow. I'm hoping Fernando blows at the meeting and confesses the mess he is in. It would be better if it came from him. Whoever said it is right, Lety doesn't have it in her to ruin Fernando. When it comes to the bottom line, no matter what she thinks he has done to her, she loves him and cannot ruin him. This is a good character attribute. I'm wondering if Marcia will dump Fernando if all is revealed and he has lost his company. Will he still be such desirable husband material then? There had to be some equalling out between Lety and Fernando, socially, economically, etc. for it to really work. Maybe the leveling will occur and they'll get together finally. I love watching them together.

Can't wait for the Big Meeting.

Anonymous,

I thought Lety responded with "No te amo" also, but my spanish is so limited it's highly likely I misunderstood.

Connie
 

AMANDA,

I forgot to tell you how nice it was of you to bother with this recap when you're in the middle of finals. Wow! That is true dedication. We die-hard fans of this show and blog are eternally grateful to you and all the other marvellous bloggers that open La Fea to us non-spanish speakers.

CONNIE
 

"Yo te amo" with a lump in one's throat probably sounds a lot like "no te amo."

Less than three hours now till tonight's episode... can you tell I'm excited?? (I think the Big Meeting is still at least a few episodes away, but I'm still looking forward to whatever tonight brings!)
 

Yes, yes, the big meeting is coming! I'm sure it's going to be exciting. I'm with you, Alma about Marcia's character. At this point, I wouldn't feel bad if he left her standing at the alter!

As for the "yo te amo" I watched it twice and I'm pretty sure I got it right, but then again my mind is mush right now. It really is a blessing to get to do these recaps, but sometimes we all miss a phrase or two. In this case I'm 99% sure that she said "I love you" but I'd have to watch one more time to be 100%.
 

Definitely it was 'TO TE AMO" No queston about it.
 

YO TE amo (typo)
 

Forgot to say, Angela, it's awesome that you got the spoiler! I'm obsessed with that song. I play it over and over and over... you get the idea! ;-)
 

If you ever aren't sure of what somebody says, turn on the captions on your TV! Jean suggested that to me when Cesar's mumbling on Heridas was driving me insane and it is a life saver. They aren't perfect, but it clears up some confusion a lot of the time. Also, count me in for being excited to get to the big meeting. As fun as this show is, it is the slowest moving story in the complete history of story telling. Yes, slower than stuff you had to read in high school. It's true.
 

The captions say "yo lo amo" which actually makes more sense since Lety never uses the familiar form with Fern.
 

The "lo" is probably where everyone got the no.
 

thanks for the recap i LOVE LOVE LOVE this show. oh and by the way the song is relative to todays episode when i heard it i was in love with it. I do have to admitt that i do feel a little sorry for marcia during the song cuz they were going through the good times that marcia and fernando had together. Too bad fernando did have the same flash back. Fernando was thinking about Lety. I am going to cry tomarrow LETY is leaving!!! Oh GOD help me get through this episode!!! I take this show so seriously i mean at my house they already know don't talk to me when my Novela La Fea is on...lol...cuz they know i will get mad...hehehe what can i say i was captived by the love of Lety the Beautiful and Fernando...
 

Amanda, thanks for the terrific recap...during finals week!!! Yikes, what dedication to making sure everyone here "gets it!"

Speaking of captions, folks, I contacted Cox cable's president in Atlanta last week, and even though I had contacted technical support by e-mail six weeks ago, with nothing done.....last night the closed captions were perfect and today I had a phone message from one of the Vice Presidents to see how the captions are. The squeaky wheel apparently can get greased. I was ecstatic to understand 90% of the dialogue with proper captions. Now the deaf Hispanic kids in our boarding school can watch the captions on Univision, too. (Oh, okay, my complaint to Cox was mostly self-serving).

I think the Cox folks probably know about program addicts like me....we want it right. Recappers, thanks again!

Jeanne
