Acorralada #26 Monday 2/19 Many secrets are revealed

Acorralada #27 Monday 2/19

We begin with a meeting of Camila and Max. She is trying to tell him the terrible secret—he doesn’t want to hear any of her trash talk. Nothing will change his opinion (stay tuned). He does remember that he saw the police arresting her, and he wonders why she didn’t give an honest answer when she first met him? (this is not completely clear to me because I didn’t see the early episodes).

Cut to Peyote lying in bed. She breathily repeats the name of her exciting new lover: “Pancholon.” “Pancholon.” She gets more excited with each recitation.

Camila now tells Max that D tired to rob and kill Doc Evil. Max still doesn’t believe. But then he remembers that Doc Evil wanted to tell him something . . . hmmm. Wasn’t that right after Camila stabbed Evil? This just doesn’t make sense. Since Camila stabbed Evil herself, doesn’t she realize that Diana really didn’t try to kill him? (But Diana’s incident was earlier. I guess Camila thinks everyone goes around attempting murder . . .)
Max is now growing suspicious. He goes to see his friend Ignacio.

D/M is talking to Bruno about Granny DS. They are upset that she saw them, but they figure no one will believe what she says. A knock at the door. D/M must scramble for her cane. It’s Camila, who is there to gloat that the nurse will soon be on the way out. Of course, Camila still thinks D/M is RM.

Now for another BIG revelation. Yolanda and O are talking. We now learn that Paola is O’s daughter by another man! (not husband who fathered Max and Larry.) O went on a business trip and came back pregnant. She realizes she sinned, so she hates her daughter as the product of sin, even though the loved the man very much, blah blah blah. That’s why she treats Paola so badly. Yolanda remonstrates with her on this. But she doesn’t call O a “muerta de hambre,” unfortunately.

Max goes to see Doc Evil. You’ve got to love Doc Evil’s dyed blond hair. It looks so fake. Evil says that he knows her from when they worked at the hospital. Iago tells Othello ….oops, I mean Evil tells Max . . . that Diana was the plaything of all the doctors there, she had affairs with everyone there and wanted to marry a millionaire, etc. You can hardly see the wheels turning in dim-bulb Max’s brain. Still, he doesn’t believe.

Larry is reclining on bed in usual pinup pose. Pilar calls and yells for help again. Gaby comes in.

Max protests to Evil that Diana seems so innocent. That’s just part of her game, says Evil.

D/M and Cam are talking about Max. More about how they will soon be rid of the nurse, but undercurrent about how they are really rivals.

Larry and Gaby talk. She doesn’t want to leave her room because it makes Octavia mad. You shouldn’t have asked me to marry you. I was dreaming of you for so long while serving you breakfast. You need help, but your mother won’t accept me. I can’t help you.

O comes in. What is she doing here? She is not allowed in the bedrooms. If you need to talk to her, you have to talk in the garden or living room. Larry says he hasn’t touched her.

Granny M is going to church to pray for her girls. Diana remains at home and calls Gaby. Gavy is crying and Diana tells her to come home. But she won’t leave Larry. She says if she doesn’t fight, he’ll never love her.

D/M arrives at the little house to see RM. She is wearing a black leather miniskirt, boots and jacket. RM is paralyzed in bed.

Diana prays to the virgencita. Max comes in and tells her that she’s taken him for a fool. She tries to persuade him, but the celos monster has taken over.

D/M and RM have a repetitive back and forth discussion about who will take who’s place, etc. RM once again reminds D/M that she was always a bad student in school and had bad grades. No wonder D/M became a carjacker.

Diana tries to get Max to listen, but he just calls her trash (basura). You wanted the Irascible fortune, and it’s a good thing I got out in time. Exit Max. Enter Diego.

Zombie vows to unmask the leather girl. Uh-oh—D/M pulls a very large gun.

Diego comes in. Diana cries about how she begged Max to believe her. Diego thinks Max is an idiot. More Max bashing.

Back at the little house, Isabel and D/M have a violent wrestling match. Isobel manages to wrest gun away.

At the pool, Octavia is talking to Emilio. The drip returns and Lala comes in. Suddenly Diego comes in. How did they all get there so fast? Max has a Corvette, but Diego seems to walk everywhere. Max and Diego begin fighting. They’re near the edge of the pool. You know they’re going in, but you’ll have to wait . . .

Diana goes to see Gaviota. Nothing happens.

Diego hits Max. Max strangles Diego. Now they tumble into the pool! More fighting. Now Larry and Emilio jump in.

Diana confesses to Gaviota that in the storm she gave into Max. It was her first time. Now he’s saying the worst things. Gaviota sees this as a chance to recruit Diana to her vengeance campaign. Diana declines. Gaviota rages about how they ruined her life, think about my proposals.

Back at the pool, Octavia orders Diego out. With pleasure he says, but his mom, Lala, tries to intervene. Peyote comes in. She’s thrilled, because no more piano lessons. O tells Lala and Max to meet her in the library. O tells Lala that if Diego comes back, he will go to prison.
Back at the bar, Paco receives a call from Gaviota’s lawyer. He apparently has some new evidence that is going to prove her innocent. We don’t know what this is.

Bruno is back in D/M’s bedroom with a cane. D/M had to sneak in with the leather outfit. It’s about time you came back. Max and the piano teacher came to blows and fell in the pool over that nurse.

Max is lamenting to Larry about how Diana was the town pump. Octavia opens the door and overhears. They don’t see her. Larry says that she seems innocent. Ha, that’s her trick. I hate her. O smiles!

RM is fearful because Bruno used to be on her side. Bruno loves you, says Isabel. Don’t worry. We will get back to unmask D/M.

Octavia comes in to talk to D/M and Bruno. D/M must scamper to get her cane. O wonders why D/M was out. But she quickly forgets and says that she missed all the excitement. Good news. That qualquiera has a case against her. This is a great moment. She now lets us in on another plan. She will send D/M and Max to Mexico for two years to start up or run another perfume factory. D/M eye rolls with glee.
