Caray, Caray!

Joselyn & Miriam decide that Gabe & MA’s wedding day is never going to arrive.

Dolores is all worried about stupid Tiberio. She wants Nicolas to drop his investigation so that Tiberio doesn’t go down with the big D. Nic says, well if the glove fits I can’t quit--that is to say if baby boy Tiberio is guilty then he should be brought to justice.

Jos is working on her happy mom routine, feeding LG and talking to him in a sickly sweet voice. Frankly, I’m too worried about the kid grabbing her chandelier-sized earring and yanking it out to pay much attention to the scene. As soon as Gabe & LG leave, Jos throws a little fit.

JC is writing another letter to his son. He tells him to be sure to love his mother because a mother’s love is so great, yada yada yada. In walks Paulina and goes from zero to jealous hissy fit in two seconds when she sees him hide the letter. JC continues with his jerk act.

Demian is chastising MA and her attitude. She tells him, I’m not aligned with anyone and your threats don’t scare me. They go back and forth a little.

Paulina has run off to her mother-in-law to cry and complain about JC’s behavior. She feels alone, isolated, etc. Regina has also noticed the change, but she talked to Leo & Lola and they told her they don’t know what’s wrong with him.

Jos & D decide to break MA. Jos says they have to plan carefully so that in one strike, MA will never again be happy.

Gabe visits MA and they’re kissing when Regina walks in. Cat’s out of the bag! They share the happy news about their engagement and Regina says she knew that love would conquer all. She tells Gabe that Paulina & JC are in trouble. Later she also tells Demian that the kids are in trouble and could he please stick his nose into their business as well.

Ingrid is scared to death that Miriam will find out about her and Rogelio. Rogelio tells her not to be scared and that she needs to break free of Miriam and that he’ll help her. Ingrid wants to know why he would help her and he answers (honestly!) that nothing would make him happier than to get some revenge on Miriam.

Gabe goes to talk to JC, who tells him that their marriage is really none of the old fart’s business. Gabe says, yeah, but be careful because life is a game and you only get one chance to win and since he already won Paulina’s love, he should be careful not to throw it away with his attitude. JC’s little thought bubble says, well actually that’s exactly what I want to happen you nosy old fart.

Paulina’s crying in the parking garage, is comforted by Manuel and JC sees it. Paulina tells him what’s up and Manuel invites her for coffee. (Who the heck is Manuel anyway?) At coffee, Paulina keeps whining about how she doesn’t understand JC’s attitude change. JC spies them from afar and decides that Manuel will be her rebound man. When Paulina goes to ‘fix her face’ in the bathroom, JC rushes in and tells Manuel that he’s condemned to death (which is more than he’s told his mom or wife), but can’t tell him anymore because Paulina returns. JC leaves and Paulina says see…see how cold he is? She says he must be seeing someone else, he tries to suggest that it could be something else and then offers to be a shoulder to cry on.

Ingrid delivers a fax to Miriam from an exclusive consortium that will distribute their clothes. Miriam’s psyched because it’ll make Otilia crazy with jealousy. Miriam is also telling Ingrid that she needs to make some more plans to completely destroy Rogelio. Ingrid looks scared.

Otilia gets the same news over at her house of ‘style’. She’s not pleased, but she is confident she can get out of this problem. MA picks up Elsa’s wedding dress.

Jos is going through Gabe’s stuff and sees LD’s birth certificate—with Gabe as the father. Jos goes to Demian and demands that they take care of MA right away. They kiss and who should be lurking by the door…Tiberio…that poor kid is always catching one or another of his parents making out—more therapy! Tiberio goes back and tries to figure out what their intentions are with one another (in the sense of conspiratorial intentions, not birds & the bees intentions).

Gabe suggests that they get married legally right away and they can have the church wedding later (smart guy…he’s seen how quickly she can change her mind!). MA says, let’s just wait.

JC is staring at his screensaver (obviously entered by Paulina—it says I love you) and thinking how much he loves her too when she and Manuel return. In an effort to set his wife up with a new healthy man (if he was really cared about Paulina, he would ask Manuel for a health history and a physical exam—just to make sure he wouldn’t get sick on her at some point) he invites Manuel to dinner. JC walks Manny down to his car to fill him in on the rest of his master plan. Wisely, Manny tells JC to just tell her the truth but JC refuses once again. What a stubborn, stupid ass.

Back in the ‘hood, Elsa (looking more and more wrecked) gets her wedding dress. As always, everyone else is way happier than she is. Down in the courtyard the guys are decorating. Silvestre is saying that he can’t sleep because he’s so excited to get married. Shorty says uh-oh hopefully you won’t fall asleep during the wedding mass…or even worse, your wedding night! Ja ja ja. Back upstairs, Elsa is looking at her dress and thinking she doesn’t want to get married. She pulls out her bottle and takes a swig.

Dolores gives Tiberio a gift (some lotion) and tries to give him a hug, but he gets all formal and weird and leaves.

Gabe, MA and the boys are playing on the bed (because the house is really small, and there’s just no where else for them to go). Jos tells Miriam that she isn’t going to attack them openly anymore, she and D have a secret plan.

At dinner, Paulina continues whining about JC’s attitude…that everything comes before her. She’s convinced that he doesn’t love her. JC gives himself a little pep speech in the bedroom to stay the course and make Paulina leave him for Manny. (This must be very awkward for poor Manny.)
