Mundo de Fieras 12/29/06 Back in the Saddle Again!
Demian tells Miriam that in exchange for having killed Freddy he wants Jos to sell him all the shares from the construction company that she inherited from Clemente. Jos eventually says go ahead not just because they need the money, but because Demian will then have majority ownership of Gabe's construction company.
Gabe is at work and tickled pink at his prowess from last night's much anticipated trial run in the sheets with his hot trophy, Mariangela. (Mariangela must have a father fetish because now we have a May/December thing--sorry Cesar—going on here. Although, the way I see it, Mariangela appears more like a March and Gabe is an early to Mid-November......) He is feeling just like a kid again and calls her while she's in the middle of teaching her class of home-school students. Mariangela is feeling giddy as well. He asks her to marry him right away because he just cannot stand their being separated any longer.
A bit after hanging up, Nic comes in to discuss a couple things. but first Gabe tells him, “Congratulate me! Mariangela and I are getting married! Joselyn and she are not sisters so nothing is stopping us now.” Hugs and back pats for the boss come first and then Nic tells Gabe that he is investigating Freddy's death in prison. Freddy wasn't one for fighting and a brawl doesn't seem to fit particularly the description of the way things occurred. Gabe asks him, “You suspect Jos and Miriam had something to do with this?” Nic will have to continue his investigation. Then Nic tells him that Rogelio has received Diana's divorce papers. As for the divorce, Gabe tells Nic he feels Diana has every right to start her life over.
Mariangela is so excited over Gabe's proposal that she visits Candy to catch her up on all the news including the down and dirty. (Note: Mariangela doesn't run to tell a close girlfriend like Paulina, somebody her own age, all the intimate details of her first time at bat. Naw. She runs to mother-figure, sainted Candy, whom we all have seen handle Elsa's sexploits so well, and outs with the nitty-gritty.) Since they've decided to get married Candy formally gives it her blessing.
Leo takes flowers to his dead wife's grave and apologizes with tears running down his cheeks for trying to start his love-life over with another woman who is just like Viviana, being jealous every time he sees her with the other man and so upset that she is breaking his heart by not being able to respond. (Leo, another doctor in training who in med school missed out on the class in healthy psyches and recognizing those which aren't, i.e., his own. In his whole life he has obsessed on two women and, just how long ago did his wife become wormfood, anyway?)
When Nic leaves Gabe has Rogelio come in for a chat. Gabe first tells his son he's getting married to Mariangela. He knows Rogelio doesn't care for the idea one bit, but he has been a good father and now deserves a little whoopy. Surely after a while Mariangela's sweetness will soften Rogelio up just like it has him. Then Gabe gets to the next topic: he's found out Diana has petitioned for a divorce. Rogelio starts squirming like a little boy whose hand has been caught in the cookie jar. He immediately pretends to have tried to get her to change her mind and to reconcile. Gabe tells Rogelio that he does not intend to leave her without financial support. He says they'll give her a chunk of Rogelio's shares in the construction company to insure she has a monthly income, and then, pretty much, not to let the door slam on his rear end on the way out. Rogelio, looking like a done-in Wylie Coyote after the Road Runner has just clunked him, has steam coming out of his ears and stands there speechless.
Mariangela is next on her way to work at Otilia's budding fashion house. While walking down the street to Otilia's, Mariangela runs into Jos walking towards her from the opposite direction, that is to say, the competition: Miriam's House of Designer Fashion. Jos's eyes light up and she gets on a roll: Mariangela is a shameless hussy from the wrong side of the tracks and she had better not think she's going to get everything her own way. She stole away Jos' inheritance, her son prefers her over his own mother-- and on and on. Mariangela isn't buying what Jos is selling. “Don't pretend the victim with me! Clemente wasn't your father and you knew it; and I didn't ask for anything. Unlike you I earned everything by my own hands..... You on the other hand, only got yours by holding out your hand and if you couldn't get it that way you poisoned everything around you. You don't know how to love a child.....” and we know the rest of this little number. About this time Dolores and Otilia come down the street to hear what is taking place and they chase off Jos before she might come to fisty-cuffs with Mariangela. Jos takes offense and tells them they will all pay for their rudeness. Otilia tells her to scram and get back to mommie's tiny shop to cause scandals. So, Jos struts angrily back the way she came.
Juan Cristobal tries to be kind and understanding to a bitchy, pregnant Paulina. He tells her there is no reason to be jealous of him because he hasn't the desire to look at another woman, least wise Karen.
Later on in Otilia's office, Dolores, Otilia and Mariangela are discussing Freddy's untimely death. They accuse Jos and Miriam of being involved in both Freddy and Edgar's deaths. The women all compare notes and Mariangela tells them that she feels Jos may also have had something to do with her mother, Aurora's, death. Karen walks in with some more of Saroya's designs. Otilia remarks they are not quite right and then asks Mariangela for her opinion. Karen snidely breaks in and asks Otilia why bother asking her, since she's just a seamstress from the poor side of town, aka, the “vecindad”/neighborhood. She couldn't have any sense of fashion or style. Dolores interrupts her and says a person doesn't have to come from money to have talent. Mariangela then offers some great color ideas which Otilia feels makes perfect sense. As Karen is dismissed she asks Mariangela to become one of her designers instead of just her seamstress.
Candy pays a visit to Miriam to complain to her about having asked Leo to coffee and then presuming to call him “son.” That wasn't part of their earlier agreement. Candy warns her once more about trying to steal Leo from her because she gave up all parental rights the minute she abandoned her baby boy. Miriam tells her he and she are both unimportant to her even though she is his mother and has the right to call him “son.” Miriam then explains to her that she feels no motherly ties to Jos or Karen either. They are just like her, too, she adds. Candy tells her then that the three of them are no better than wild hienas. Miriam eventually shoos Candy out. Once she leaves, Miriam has to tell herself again and again that she really does not have any motherly instincts, doesn't need them and doesn't want them.
Regina comes up to advise Paulina that she has been acting unreasonable recently. She has to control her jealousy. Regina covers all of JC's virtues ad nauseum and assures her that she has no reason to ever be jealous of him. Pau accuses her of sticking her nose in because he came to her to complain about their private business. She denies this and says her words have hurt her terribly but she will continue to love her and treat her like the mother she never had. (Nice way to throw Pau's words back in her face, Regina.) Paulina won't listen to reason and shoos her out of her bedroom and sulks some more. Delores comes up a bit later as well, with the same admonition, and tells Pau she hurt Regina deeply with her remarks. When Paulina accuses JC of having gossiped to his mother Dolores corrects her saying it was she who'd told JC's mother. She asks her to have patience with Karen.
Delores pays a visit to Demian's office to question him over Miriam's unusual visit the other day. She thinks it strange since Miriam in all this time has never come to Demian's house uninvited before. Demian says they were discussing a bit of business. She accuses him of returning to his double standard concerning women. He tells her she's mistaken. Well, she says he better be careful that this great change of heart he has done so much to display better be permanent because she's going to be watching him.
Miriam and Nic discuss how long it might be before he hands over Jos's trust fund. Nic politely reminds her it is Jos and Mariangela's money and as such she is not to get a dime of it. He then explains that Clemente's will stipulated the two young women would only get monthly payments rather than a lump sum all at once. Miriam is angry and totally frustrated because she says they need all that money now to keep the fashion house financially sound. Nic says that's too bad, but it is what it is and leaves.
At dinner that evening at the manse Rogelio, Gabe, JC, Mariangela and the little boys are eating. The maid says Jos is going to be late coming in to dinner. Rogelio takes advantage of the uncomfortable silence to mention he's heard Mariangela and his dad are planning to get married. Mariangela says it is not the time or place to discuss it. Jos comes strolling in then with movie tickets for that night for the new children's movie. She expects to go with Gabe and the boys (to make nice-nice) but she only bought four tickets. She doesn't have one for Mariangela. Hmm. Gabe looks at Mariangela and says he's not going anywhere with her, period. (Jos doesn't realize how far their relationship has progressed; she really thinks this is going to change Gabe's attitude toward her?) Mariangela selflessly smiles back at Gabe and insists he go ahead with Jos and the boys. He gives in and eventually does. Jos is glad to have the old “family unit” (no pun intended, Gabe) back in tow again. In fact, she hangs up on Ti when he calls just as she is coming down the stairs and asks her if she's coming to the bar that evening. “Wrong number.” Click. The foursome walk out the door and Gabe keeps looking wistfully over his shoulder at Mariangela as she smiles, wanting them all to have the best time. (Yeah, there is something disturbing about people who are just too nice.)
At Demian's that evening the old cur distracts Regina by surprising her with a bubble bath in that huge bathtub of theirs, complete with champagne, candles and rose petals in the shape of a heart, and it's bye-bye to those wet dreams of Mariangela--at least, for now.
Cortito fakes answering a call from a girlfriend, right as Mayeya returns to the kitchen, wanting to get her jealous. (Darn, these guys from the “vecindad” really are hard up!) She lies and says she isn't jealous and we have another slapstick comedy session as she pours a pot of water all over him and walks off angry at being jealous after all.
JC goes down to eat and promises to come back to work upstairs in the bedroom rather than the office on the first floor, in order to keep Paulina company. She gets depressed and frustrated later on when JC hasn't returned soon enough after supper. She decides to walk downstairs to find him, suspicious of seeing exactly what she does see: Karen and him embracing near the stairway. Of course, it is an innocent, familial hug on his part and as always, a subterfuge on Karen's, but Pau sees it through jealous eyes. She is so upset she loses her balance and rolls all the way down the stairs to the bottom and lays unconscious as JC runs to her side in panic.
Gabe is at work and tickled pink at his prowess from last night's much anticipated trial run in the sheets with his hot trophy, Mariangela. (Mariangela must have a father fetish because now we have a May/December thing--sorry Cesar—going on here. Although, the way I see it, Mariangela appears more like a March and Gabe is an early to Mid-November......)

Paulina is utterly impossible! I never liked her and I like her less now! Gabriel is an idiot and a lech! The bad guys are much more fun.
I agree Melinama, Pau is a pain and Gabe is a lech. HIs relationship with MA is just creepy and icky.
This show needs to have more good characters like Nic. Being good doesn't mean you are stupid and naive.

Here's what I am noticing...all these good guys who tell the mujeres that they are only interested in their souls [oh, pleassssse], eventually just jump their bones!!! Remember good old Aldolfo in ''Amor Real''??? After years of obsessing and groveling after Matlide's ''soul'', he decided that she really preferred Manuel's muy macho lustiness and attempted to rape her on a big old pile of hay. Nice, Aldolfo...so much for ''I love your soul, mi vida.'' You, my friend , are full of bologny. I noticed that Gabe did not waste a lot of time or ethics before he talked MA into the sheets. Gee, am I getting cynical and jaded??? ~~~~Susanlynn,cynical and jaded
