Mundo de Fieras 01/26/07: Payback is a B-tch Named Miriam
Otilia takes her average housewife models for their photo shoot.
Jos preens in front of the mirror and tells her mom she was right to throw Rogelio out on his ear for having robbed her. (Echh!! For once you really have to agree with these two. Disgusting, isn't it?)
Karen is worried that the designer's challenge date is nearing. Miriam says she has everything planned out. She says that she will get paid back what she's owed either from Rogelio or from Gabe, and nobody --but nobody-- plays around with her!
Later that day the two sets of member stockholders vote regarding the merging of their two construction companies. Nic takes the count and it is tied. Gabe has voted against it along with Rog and Jos and Pau.
At Demian's home dutifully diligent Dolores dusts the shelves in his office and she comes across something that looks like a giant television remote control taped behind a secret drawer. "Hmm. What's this?" (Apparently it's the remote control device that Demian used earlier to set off the explosions.....) She takes it with her it.
Mariangela must make the determining vote. She votes for the merger along with Demian, Regina, JC and Ti. Gabe seems to have expected as much. They all leave the board room and are accosted in the lobby by numbers of reporters all asking dopey questions. Right then the police show up with an arrest warrant for Rogelio for the charge of grand larceny. Gabe of course believes the charge is a mistake and there is no proof of this. So Gabe is impactado when he finds out the charge of stealing jewelry is from Miriam. "Joselyn, what is the meaning of this?" Her Oscar-worthy reply is, "I don't know, Gabe. Why, I am as surprised as you!" During the fray Juan Cristobal has a bout of nausea and weakness and asks Dolores - who just came out of the elevator-- to sneak him off to the hospital to see Leo in the ER and Leo immediately races him off to see the oncologist for a consultation. At the same time, Gabe and Nic follow the police out as Rog, screaming "Dad! Don't let them take me!" gets a free ride to jail from the Mexico City taxpayers. Mariangela has a momentary change of heart and stops Gabe on his way out to say that she will support him during this troublesome time. The gentleman in him says, "Thanks", but you just know he really wants to shove his fist in her mouth.
They arrive at the jail and Rogelio yells again to his daddy, "Don't let them lock me up!" Gabe is beside himself with worry. (No cable t.v. in Mexican prisons.) Nic says this is going to kick up a real scandal with the press having been there at the business ready and waiting. They figure Demian called them because somehow he knew ahead of time he'd win the vote. Finally Gabe gets to go in to speak with Rogelio. Rog, when asked about his side of the story, simply looks sheepishly at his feet while his father wastes time asking him to tell him the truth. It is obvious here from the way Rog looks down at his Gucci's what the truth is. Gabe loses his temper and yells at Rogelio: "What am I going to do with you? Is this the example I gave you? Is this the example I gave you????" (What? Gabe is shocked that his grown son is now a spoiled-rotten, rich, male-chauvinist playboy with a former stripper for an ex-wife and a gambling habit, with most all his shares in the business taken completely away from him and given over to her which resulted in his need for revenge and independence at all cost with the complete knowledge that his daddy's sense of honor and his big, fat fortune, would always buy him a way out of any jam? Hmm. --What? Gabe is still shocked? Oh, Gabe doesn't remember Rog's exemplar daddy having an ex-bitch-slut-trophy wife as well as a naive, ex-girlfriend his daughter's age, or each of their illegitimate kids he fathered, whom he's happy to "recognize" and to support while he treats his oldest son like his youngest? All this and Gabe is still shocked?) True to form, Rog has a gleem in his eye and a look on his face that shows he is silently waiting for his blind, deaf, and dumb father to chill out, put a plug in it, and pull out his damned wallet, which is eventually what happens. "But, you are my son so I'll take care of this, though you do not deserve it....." (Parents' famous last words!)
Nic tells Gabe afterward that there is nothing they can do except to get Miriam to recind the warrent and withdraw the charges. However, Miriam hasn't answered her phone at all. (You mean she still doesn't have call waiting on her phone down there? As rich as she is? Is Mextel that behind the times?) Gabe is really flustered now and yells that he's been trying to reach her by phone also and she isn't answering; he's going to look for her to speak with her in person.
Miriam gets another call from Jos who tells her to be prepared for Gabe's arguments since they came for his son and took him off to jail.
Mariangela is wise to Demian's flowers and dinner bribe. She shocks him by telling him in so many words she's knows what he's up to and that before she agrees to sign any of the merger documents she wants a thorough audit and examination of his company's books. It will avoid any nasty and unpleasant surprises. Now it's Demian's turn to be impactado. (None of us knew little Mariangela had it in her!)
Paulina notices that JC is missing and she and Regina look but don't find him anywhere. They find he has left his cell phone on his desk but has vanished from the office and the building. At the hospital, the oncologist explains to JC that what happened to him was normal and to be expected after taking radiology treatments. (PSA # 305. So do they get tax breaks every time they put one of those into the script?) The two women go to lend Gabe support at the jail. While there, Regina tries to cheer up Paulina by telling her that Demian and she have decided to give JC and her a second honeymoon trip as a 2nd anniversary present. (That seems to do the trick.) Pau starts jumping for joy.
Gabe goes over to see Miriam to clear things up. Miriam has a great time letting Gabe twist in the wind while she angrily tells him how Rog purposely set about stealing her jewels and replacing them all with fakes. She demands he reimburse her every centavo or his son will spend the rest of his days behind bars and the family's good name will suffer. Of course he offers her payment for the jewels if she revokes the warrant. She says to give her the check first and once she deposits it she'll get him released. He has no choice.
Jos and Miriam are back on the phone and Miriam says she'll get every cent back from Gabe, and will make Rog suffer in the meantime and for as long as she possibly can.
Afterward, Jos goes into Mariangela's office and complains to her about not loving Gabe after all since she voted against him in the stockholders' meeting. Mariangela yells at her and says pretty much, "Back off! I don't love him anymore. Duh, it's yesterday's news!"
Then Jos goes in to see Demian. They both gloat over their success in out-voting Gabe. Jos says everything went according to plan. Then she flirts with him and promises him some real action if he has an intimate celebration dinner with her that night. Demian gets so excited he cracks his pencil........
Back again at the office, Dolores and a stoic JC lie to Paulina and his mother saying that he took Dolores to the ER when she started to feel dizzy, something to do with low blood pressure. Pau changes the subject and tells JC about the anniversary gift of the second honeymoon. He thanks Regina.
Later in Mariangela's office, Mariangela tells Regina that she finally admitted to Gabe that Luis David is his, but she does not want him to get anywhere near him. She is very bitter about his betrayal with Jos. Regina is upset and tells her that Gabe couldn't have done something like that to her purposely. Mariangela answers back, "He did, though, and that is what counts, Regina! That is what counts!"
Tiberio complains to Dolores that he's seen her hugging on JC again. She tells him that she and JC have developed a caring relationship. She has open arms for him, too, any time he's ready to turn to her for support. He gets uncomfortable as she walks away.
Nic advises Gabe that Rogelio was transferred to the prison, where they will continue the procedings. Gabe says that cannot be because he has already paid Miriam what she wanted and she was supposed to withdraw the charges against him. So he rushes back over to Miriam's office to see what the problem was. Apparently she's just spent it on all the preparations for the designers' challenge with Otilia's group. Gabe comes rushing in and screams at her about why she didn't keep her end of the bargain. She says Rog is getting exactly what he deserves. He threatens to cancel the check and she says, unfortunately she already has cashed it. Then she gives in and goes with Gabe to the police station to withdraw the charges and gripes about it all as they leave.
Mariangela enters Tiberio's office and they argue about his not showing respect and getting up when a lady enters. He says she is still an employee to him. She answers that she is a voting member (and part-owner). She tells him she is having a full audit of their business done before signing the merger documents and she wants his report right away. If he doesn't understand then tell her and she'll talk to Demian about it.
Before Dolores leaves the office Regina tells her that she is worried about the way Paulina reacted when she couldn't find JC. "It's as if she suspects something is wrong with him." Dolores lies to her and says he is just fine. Regina says she believes it only because she is her friend and is saying this. She knows how much she loves her son and how she would not be able to stand it if anything happened to him. Dolores assures her that whatever happens she can count on her and her friendship.
JC and Pau return home. She says she was worried when he disappeared. He says he didn't feel like sticking around and Dolores asked him for help. They become very emotional about their love and life together when she asks where they should go for their second honeymoon. They think about returning to the same place they went the first time. He talks about the place where they began to share their life together. She wipes away his tears. "Tears of happiness" she tells him and the two kiss blissfully. Roll credits.......

Now how is JC going to continue with his treatment if they go on a second honeymoon? Oh...I know he can just pack Leonardo in his suitcase and buzz off with him for treatment whenever he needs to. Paulina's so dumb, she probably won't even notice a thing, and it's not like Leonardo's other patients (all 2 of them) will notice his absence.
LOL..I love that idea, and your probably right about the rest.

As for our Dr. Leo, I cannot seem to get the image of Leo with a Mighty Mouse --or rather--his "SUPERDOC" cape with the "SD" insignia stamped onto his chest, flying around from one type of medical emergency to another, out of my head. Is there no disease specialty this resident doctor hasn't perfected to a T? (ta-da-da-dum)"Mighty Doc to save the day!!!!! (Whoosh!)
I liked him in Piel de Otono. Is playing the villan common for him? I don't think I would want to watch this, I prefer to remember him as the good guy.

If that is true, Uni is doomed. He is only their biggest boxoffice draw right now with Mauricio Islas having left 2 years or so ago.
I wonder how much longer till Paulina figures out what's going on with JC. What if he passes out on their 2nd honeymoon and she has to rush him to the ER?
You mean that screaming little girl with the ponytails? Never!!! The irony is that I would have to pay a LOT extra to get Univision on Dish Network because it isn't offered as a "local" channel in my area!

One thing I can say is that there were rumors but apparently false ones. One thing that can be checked and confirmed is that he is in a movie called Bandoleros which should air in April 2007 i think.
Again I am VERY SORRY, FC Fans.

Cuban American actor Oscar Torre stars alongside Spanish film and television stars, which includes Fernando Colunga, Miguel Varoni, Gabriel Soto, and Saul Lisazo. The Jim McNamara/ Ben O'Dell project was written by Jojo Henrickson and directed by Joe Menendez. Presently in post production, the film is scheduled to be released in theaters April, 2007.
Torre first garnered attention with the lead role in the film "Libertad," playing an artist in Cuba who is unjustly sentenced to 15 years in prison and later escapes on a raft. After viewing his performance, NBC-TV film critic Maria Salas predicted, "Oscar will be the next Latin star," and Telerevista Magazine listed him as one of the actors in Hollywood to keep your eyes on. Theatre critic Jacob Clark of MetroLA Magazine, in his review of the play "The Contract," says "Oscar Torre is an incredibly organic actor whose work is a marvel through his absolute naturalness. Torre literally lives the character, and I can think of no better accolade for a performance.- Torre's other credits include lead roles in 'The Versace Murder,- 'Suicide Blonde,- and 'Hunting of Man.- Oscar is next slated to star in a sitcom pilot directed by Jojo Henrickson.
