Mundo de Fieras - Friday 12/01/06
Clemente finally reveals the truth of their relationship to Mariangela. Both cry. Mariangela says to herself, “No! No! It can't be true!” Then she screams at him aksing why he never went to seek her mother out and just abandoned her. He tries to explain why he never knew about her, but Mariangela doesn't want to listen. She sends him away saying that she must work through the mental confusion the shock has caused her. Clemente returns to Candy’s for tea and consolation. Candy tells him to let Mariangela have time to absorb the news and she will be fine with it all. He breaks down and cries in Candy’s arms.
Mariangela tells the picture of her mother that she admires her even more for the hardship she went through not having Clemente by her side while trying to raise her. Later she too visits Candy for tea and consolation. She wants to know why Clemente did not come back for her mother and abandoned her. Candy explains that his parents separated the two of them and that when the two met again they consummated their love. However, when Aurora realized she was pregnant, he was already married to Miriam. He never knew about Mariangela because Aurora forbade Candy from ever telling him. She assures Mariangela that the only thing Clemente lacks is strength of character, but he is a good man.
Leo gets the agreement from the hospital to stay on with the taxistas as well as begin his new hospital assignment during the night shift, provided he can fulfill his hospital obligations or he’ll have to choose between them. He is obviously stretched thin with two fulltime jobs and the ER duties exhaust him. (Time to grow up, Leo and to transition from that old life into the new.)
Mariangela seeks out Leo and tells him about Don Clemente being her daddy. She says she does not think of him as a father and probably won’t ever think of him as her daddy. Leo tells her to look a bit deeper into her heart and she will find the love of a daughter for her father. It is better to fill her heart with love, he tells her, than to fill it with bitterness as it is far more difficult ridding one’s heart of resentment and hate.
People start arriving at Demian and Regina’s manse for dinner. Drably dressed Delores is there also, but she tells Regina that even though she is part of the family, being Ti’s mother and all, she prefers to work along side Simona in the kitchen and serve the guests their hors d’oeuvres. In an aside Dem warns Tiberio that he’d better behave respectably or else, which Ti promises to do. (This house is decorated in such dark colors and the living room is so small compared to Gabe’s manse or his new apartment. Watching Regina and Demian with that Hitler haircut of his standing side by side next to the stairs was strangely like watching an extended Addams Family on parade with the first family freaks to arrive being Miriam, Jos and Karen. I almost expected Hand to come running out to greet them.) Demian continues to surprise Regina as he warmly welcomes his son and new daughter-in-law who arrive a bit after. He even kisses Paulina’s hand.
Clemente has gone to see Frederico, who apparently is his personal lawyer, to request Freddy adjust his will so that half his fortune goes to each of his two daughters, equally. Clemente leaves for Demian’s dinner party and Freddy immediately calls Miriam to let her know Clemente’s been there to change his will to include Mariangela.
The three fatal fems sit rather stone-faced, drinking wine, and preening for most of the night. (This little scene reminds me of some of those painfully boring business and extended family dinners we’ve probably all had to sit through at some time.) First shock of the evening for M, J and K is seeing Delores come out to offer them a tray of hors d’oeuvres. “What is she here for? What a mistake Demian has made allowing that woman in here.” Everybody watches in amazement as Demian shows himself to be the perfect, if not so charming host to all that enter. In come Pedro and Rogelio. A bit later Demian is put to the final test as Gabriel arrives. Gabe apologizes for his tardiness. It seems to take forever, but finally Demian appears to restrain his inner demon and he gets up and walks over to Gabe. The two brothers stare at each other as others hold their breath, watching and waiting. Demian offers a truce and hugs his brother in front of them all. Miriam sucks in a breath and Karen drops her maw... uh jaw. (Me too, cause I’m wondering just where the heck this is leading. Those battling brothers and Dem’s murderous scheming are half the draw for me in this dopy mela-novela.)
Clemente arrives afterward with Nicolas and tells Gabe that he has now told Mariangela that she is his daughter. Gabe is amazed to hear he told her.
El Coyote is drinking at Tiberio’s strip joint and enjoying a blonde on his arm. Of course, the louse forgot to pick Elsa up outside the shop after work as he had promised her, and she was waiting for ages it seems for him to show. Silvestre sees her that evening out there by herself, waiting on the deserted street corner so he stops and talks to her. She lets him take her to a bar for a drink and while they eat and have a beer, they discuss “for love” versus “for money”. She says she will choose money every time. He asks her to give him an opportunity to win her over, because he loves her and he will treat her the way she deserves, not like El Coyote. Then he talks her into visiting her mother for a bit that evening. She agrees if only under the pretext of picking up the rest of her things.
Later in the evening Demian, Jos and Miriam discuss how Delores’ being there is a risk since she presents a danger to all three of them. Demian reminds them he doesn’t see her as a threat at all. If she discovers anything about the murder, it will all appear to be their doing not his. (Chacal certainly won’t be telling tales out of school!) So Jos nods over at Gabe and Regina laughing and talking together. She tries to get Demian upset by mentioning how Regina obviously still is interested in his brother who has been so attentive towards her. “Reminds me of the old saying that where there was fire, ashes remain.” Demian looks over at his wife and brother and replies that the party and the family reuniting was totally his doing and not Regina’s. Then he walks off. Miriam tells Jos she did well and that trying to make him jealous of Gabe and Regina this way will be their way of eventually controlling him again in order to bring back the Demian they used to know.
Tiberio cannot let the night pass without making an announcement to the entire group that he and Juan Cristobal are in fact brothers. He hugs JC who looks bewildered and a bit disgusted with the thought. Everybody there is impactado. Demian picks up and without missing (more than) a beat, adds that Delores is Ti’s mother and so is a part of this family. He then takes the opportunity to apologize to Ti and the family for not having recognized him long ago. Regina takes it a step further and tells everyone that as Ti’s mother she is officially part of this family and has the right to be there tonight. Of course, Karen bursts out in disgust, “If she is then I’m leaving. How could you? Why is she here? I cannot stand her! She murdered my father, after all.” Regina sticks up for Delores and Delores once again denies having done anything. Demian quietly (“mum” is sure the word here) glances at Miriam and Jos who then call attention to the fact that Delores was alone on the yacht with Edgar, “so it only could be her.” Nicolas stops all the finger pointing and bickering by telling everyone that he has been looking into the facts of the case again and will soon have some information that will put a new twist on it all. Miriam and Jos are more than a bit astonished at this revelation.
Regina tells Demian how happy she is with his behavior. She says something about it being so much nicer doing things with love in one’s heart. He looks her straight in the eyes and says it is all for love. She seems almost to believe him.
El Coyote goes home drunk and expects to find Elsa there waiting on him. When he sees she isn’t there, he wonders where else she could be at that late hour because he knows the beauty shop closed hours ago.
At Candy’s Leo, Silvestre and Elsa are chatting – well they are chatting, while Elsa looks on, grumpy as ever. Candy and Leo tell them the news that Mariangela is Clemente’s daughter. Elsa has a snicker at that and tells Leo that now Mariangela is the daughter of a rich man she can have anybody she wants. Leo will be only a little thing to her now. About then El Coyote barges into Candy’s house, screaming, yelling, and threatening Elsa. She’d better go back with him now! Leo grabs him and yells how dare he just barge in like this into his and his mother’s house. (Coyote is just an animal anyway, so why ask? Throw his sorry rear out, Leo!) It’s time for Leo and Silvestre do a little bit of soccer-style drop kick and head butt with him but Elsa finally stops their arguing and leaves with El Coyote. When they get back to his apartment, though, El Coyote drop kicks Elsa instead, picks her up by the hair and tells her she isn’t going to do that to him ever again.
Back at Candy’s Silvestre swears to Leo and her that he loves Elsa and will not stop until he gets Elsa to change her mind.
Rogelio plays the depressed deserted husband (but not too well) to Paulina. Pedro pipes up, “I’m going to look for her.” Rogelio tells him to keep his nose out of it and then complains to Paulina that Pedro is in love with his wife. Then he insults him by telling him that aside from being ugly he is only a house-servant. Ti comes over to tell Rogelio that the club is going great and says Karen has lost a great investment opportunity. She dislikes any idea of involving herself with strip clubs.
It seems Saraya, Diana and Otilia have gone on a ladies’ night out that night at that strip club of Ti's and they are all knocking back tequilas, feeling no pain. Diana is thankful to have this new job as her model. Otilia explains to Diana that she hired her because she would be great as a model, she’ll help her destroy Miriam and she knows it will really get her husband, Rogelio’s, goat. Diana wonders what the family will say if and when they find out she’s working there for Otilia. Saraya says Miriam will send spies to their shop and find out sooner or later. Otilia tells them they don’t need to be frightened of Miriam.
Gabe and Demian have a private chat in Demian’s office. He reminds his brother of all the times he suggested he set aside his bitter feelings but that Demian refused. Gabe promises to let things continue as they might and will hope for the best. Demian will have his support because he feels it’s never too late to start over. Demian says he will take that all into account and hugs Gabe again.
At breakfast the next day Miriam makes Clemente believe that Jos still doesn’t know that Mariangela is her sister. He is off to tell Jos, but Miriam stops him cold. She tells him that Jos just barely got released from the psychiatric clinic and doesn’t need another upsetting bit of news. So Clemente decides not to discuss Mariangela with Jos after all.
Mayeya has become the new cook there in place of Candy and Cortito has been hired as the new chauffeur.
Jos tells Miriam that she has decided to follow her advice. She has a plan that will take care of Gabe and get back at him for divorcing her. She says she’s going to have Gabe declared an unfit father.
Mariangela tells the picture of her mother that she admires her even more for the hardship she went through not having Clemente by her side while trying to raise her. Later she too visits Candy for tea and consolation. She wants to know why Clemente did not come back for her mother and abandoned her. Candy explains that his parents separated the two of them and that when the two met again they consummated their love.

I really have to giggle when they play ''When a Man Loves a Woman'' during scenes between Demian and Regina...very odd choice. ~~~Susanlynn, feeling bad for Percy Sledge
