Mundo de Fieras Grand Final 03/23/07: Remorse and Repentance A-plenty or Never Underestimate the Power of a Mother's Love
El GRAN FINAL ~
Gabe and Nic watch the video on Demian's cell phone and see Jos' confession to the many murders she's committed over the past couple of years. --Why, who'd a thunk it? --Nic says that with all the explosives Demian gave her there is no doubt she was the one responsible for murdering Demian as well. "She is a murderess!" says Gabe. Yes, they are both impactado.
Jos smiles to herself. She vows to herself to keep fighting for what is hers. "No, Mamá. Not a new Joselyn! The same Joselyn as ever. I am going to take back everything that is mine. Nobody will be able to restrain me."
Jos keeps swilling her adult beverages and popping downers till she starts seeing double in the mirror. Only, now Jos's double- actually treble-- begins talking back to her. (Remember Star Trek's Trouble with Tribbles? This is trouble with trebles.) Said reflection scoffs and sneers at her about how evil she is. Yes, she's Cruella Deville, with no way out (and certainly with no upside either, now, come to think of it. She's back to less than zero.)
This now somehow comes as a shock to Jos and Jos begins to argue with the treble in the mirror. The treble continues ridiculing her for all her past acts of wickedness, corruption, and depravity. Yep. It's the beginning of her conscience finally emerging to haunt her. Jos makes all the textbook excuses to her troubled trebled self: she was only defending herself; she became this vengeful, murderous sadistic monster because yes, her momma made her that way. Treble says Ha! no way. She comes by it naturally and enjoys the heck out of it every time. You can't lie to your treble so don't bother.
Cecilia tells Leo she admires him so much she's going to join him in Mexico City to study medicine and to be close to him. He is impactado.
Gabe runs into Mariangela's office and then takes seemingly forever to spit out what he and Nic just found out. Jos with Miriam's complicity was responsible for the deaths of both her mother, Aurora, and Clemente, her father. They also had planned Little Lui's kidnappiing. They were the cause of all their suffering. (No duh. Gabe is really slow to catch on at times.)
Ti asks to be forgiven by JC and Paulina. He acknowledges he owes a lot to the love and support of his mother throughout all of this. JC and Pau give him hugs and warm words of affection. The important thing, Pau reassures him, is that he wants to change his ways. Ti is glad to be out of stir but still feels he had to go to jail intead of Demian because his father would never have been able to handle the stress of being behind bars. Karen is there and wishes she'd had the love and support from her mother somewhere along the way also.
Miriam and Jos are discussing Jos's carelessness in killing Demian and in confessing all her murderous activities. (Hmmm. Come to think of it, it's a good thing Jos didn't tell Demian about putting the viper in Reggie's van or the novela would have ended right then and there with Demian jumping over the desk and making mincemeat of her, but I digress.) Luck is no longer on their side. Things have become very dangerous and Miriam isn't so sure it won't come back to bite them in the backside sooner or later. It turns out to be sooner as Mariangela suddenly storms into the hallway of the manse.
She confronts the two with killing her parents. "Murderers!" she screams, and then slaps both of them silly with a couple of totally unexpected but very satisfying whaps. Shocked, Miriam goes into her "Really? Prove it." act. The two fieras both claim she hasn't got any proof of anything. The police sirens wail in the background as Mariangela drops the news on them: "Ha!Ha! Too late. I can prove everything I am saying!"
Nic and Gabe arrive just then. Miriam says there's no proof of anything. Nic shows them the cell phone. "Demian recorded Jos' confession on his cell phone before he died!" The jig is up. The cops arrive behind Gabe.
Miriam knows they've been caught red-handed. She is furious and walks over to Jos and slaps her so hard it nearly knocks her over. "Idiot!" Jos gets in Miriam's face and threatens her then, " Never ever touch me again!" They handcuff the fieras and literally have to carry them off to jail. "I'm the mother of his child! Gabe!" Jos is still screaming and kicking as they take her out the door.
Back in the boonies the kids are suddenly coming in to the little clinic for their vaccinations. Surprisingly German comes to apologize to Leo for bullying him and causing so many problems in the clinic. (What? No law suit? No jail time for the mean old loony toon? I guess not. That would mean no future nookie from Ceci.) Leo's an easy sort, so once German is forgiven, he asks Leo's intentions towards Cecilia.
Leo explains very honestly how he feels and assures him that he respects her even though he doesn't love her right now. They are going to give the relationship a try, he says, and he believes it won't take long with a woman like Cecilia to forget his past personal problems and to fall in love with her.
Elsa gets a few hours out for good behavior and Sylvestre takes her back to visit Candy in the old neighborhood. She is all smiles and healthy looking again. Elsa asks her mother to forgive her for her horrible behavior and the way she treated her and Leo for so long. Candy and she share hugs and kisses while Syl watches and smiles.
There is a big sigh of relief with both fieras now caged. Gabe and Mariangela share a minute of happiness upstairs in the manse with their two children. Yes, Mariangela has both of her children back in her arms.
Miriam and Jos share a jail cell and the two start grousing and blaming each other about Jos's carelessness. Jos kept ignoring Miriam's warnings and then, she told Demian everything they'd done! She's angry that this is why they finally got caught. "You had to open your big mouth and brag on and on!" --"Who would have thought he'd have recorded me on his cell phone?" "I disown you as my daughter!" They end up in fisty-cuffs over it so the cops finally have to come in to separate them and put them into separate jail cells.
Karen comes by to talk with her mother. Karen stands there snivelling. Jos is snide and says, "This is what you wanted right? Me in jail? Well now you have it. Don't ever come back to see me again." Karen asks her if she regrets anything she's done. Jos answers, "Not at all." Karen is crushed and leaves.
Dolores comes to harrass Miriam. Miriam says, "Satisfied?" Dolores replies, "I should say I am.....untroubled." The guards come in to transfer her to the prison and Dolores rubs it in that they're now the ones going to prison and that they'll be spending the rest of their lives rotting behind bars. As Miriam is taken away she gives Dolores the foreign equivalent of "Screw You" with hand signals. Dolores says to herself, "Brother, just as I swore to you."
Gabe must comfort Karen as prodigal son, Rogelio, returns home. Karen is all weepy eyed. He finds out that Miriam and Jos are in jail and he offers her his support and gives her a hug. Gabe looks at the two and (just like me) has a hard time figuring out if this is a big brotherly hug or something more. It's aparrent Gabe does like the change he sees in Rog.
Cecilia realizes that Leo is packing his bags to leave. She asks if he's coming back or not. He explains a couple of his family need his support right now, but he is definitely coming back to her. Cecilia plants a big fat kiss on Leo and he asks for a second one.
Gabe comes to visit Jos in prison. She says, "What were you expecting? For me to be sobbing and asking your pardon?" He complains to her about the nasty way she treated Karen. "She deserves that and more." Gabe is flabberghasted and asks her if she would want Karen feeling so horrible after telling her she'd killed her father? "Edgar was a nuissance for me. I had to get him out of the way. You know what? I don't regret it, either."
Gabe is disgusted. "You are never going to change, Joselyn. However, I do forgive you." Jos hits the roof and tells him to get lost and fast. "I don't need it. I hope you and Mariangela would rot and never be happy! Rot! Get out!"
When Leo gets home he tells Candy about the new feelings he has discovered he has now that he knows about his biological family. He also tells her about Cecilia. Elsa knocks and they make a big deal out of her calling him "brother" now. There is lots of joking and smiling all around with Sylvestre and Candy.
Leo goes to visit Jos at the prison. He offers to be there for her and to give her what support he can. "What can I do for you?" --"Get me out of here!" When he says that isn't possible she immediately rejects him; but then Jos has a supposed change of heart. She starts to cry about never having had the love necessary from her mother. She ended up the way she did and in prison because of it and now it's too late for her. (Caution, Will Robinson! Caution!!) She plays on Leo's heartstrings like a well tuned Strativarius violin.
While walking around the central business district later, Elsa and Sylvestre get a rude surprise. They are professing their feelings for each other when El Mastín, all dirty and stinking drunk (and still in the same tee-shirt and pants from when he left her on the street to die from her overdose) bumps into them with a bottle in his hand. He's high as a kite and panhandling for money.
El Mastín's mind is so burned out that he doesn't even recognize them anymore. He's too drunk or high or both. Sylvestre pushes him away. El Mastín trips and falls down against the side of a building and babbles on to himself. Sylvestre is ready to beat the tar out of him, but Elsa stops him. She is so shocked at his appearance. She realizes this could have been her fate and tells that to Sylvestre.
That night Leo is riding with Jos (now magically dressed like Catwoman in a black bodysuit) in the back of a police van. They're in route as he got her transferred to a psychiatric clinic. Suddenly Jos pretends to feel sick and has him stop the van for her. The minute the driver opens the door she double crosses them and uses a tire iron on the policeman and grabs his gun. Leo stares at her. She forces Leo to cuff himself to the policeman. She drives off in the van screaming, "I do love you, Leo! Now get out of here!" (Cute. They call handcuff's "esposas" (wives) in Mexico.)
Jos is aparently having a mental breakdown from all the guilt that has surfaced in her psyche. She's running along trying to find a way out and begins to see her reflection in windows of the buildings; it's screaming accusations at her along with Federico, Clemente and Demian. Freddy and Clemente keep whining and blaming her for their deaths. They moan and question her why since all they did was try to love her and protect her as any father/stepfather would. Demian even appears and begins bragging about pursuing her all the way from Hell to avenge his death. She breaks down into tears and tries to run away from them all.
Nic and Gabe get word Jos has escaped. Gabe takes his car and starts looking for her in the area near where she fled the van. Jos's Cruella D reflection continues to mock her until Jos tires out and ends up tripping and breaking through a glass door. She bends down and picks up a jagged piece of the glass and runs off with it.
Gabe nearly runs Jos down near the construction site of some large partially constructed building nearby. He gets out and runs after her. He follows her up to the top of the unfinished building. He tries to convince her to come down and hand herself over to the police.
She swears she will not go back to a life behind bars. --"Why did you refuse to love me? Nobody loved me!" (To the end she's the victim and blameless.) He tells her to think about her daughter and son who still love her and that she can change. He'll help her without bitterness or hate. "Really? No! It is too late to help me. I don't have the strength anymore. I just can't go on." (I am thinking about now that I can't either. Jump already, will ya? Die and put us all out of our mysery. Ay!)
Sirens start blaring again. Jos is beside herself with fear and self-loathing. "Adios, Gabriel. Forgive me. Remember I did it all for you, for your love." She cuts her wrists and lets herself fall to the bottom of the construction pit.
A couple of minutes later Leo, Gabe, Nic and Dolores and Karen are all gathered around her while she's lying there dying. Leo begs her not to give up. Jos tells him she really needed to have a brother. He says he's sorry too because he would have given anything to avoid so much of her suffering. She then tells Karen she does love her and is sorry. After that she turns to Gabe and asks his forgiveness. Of course he gives it to her with tears in his eyes.(You're a better man than I, Gunga-Gabe.) She asks him to be sure that Mariangela takes care of her children. Finally Jos tells him she was only ever able to be happy with him. Fully repentant, she dies.
Leo comes to visit Miriam in prison the next day and offers her his love and support. After all she gave him life he tells her and he respects that. He shocks her by calling her "Mamá". She sneers a bit and refuses to accept him, but as he walks off she flinches and calls him back, "Hijo!" She asks his forgiveness and they cry together.
A few months later it is just before Mariangela and Gabe's wedding ceremony. Pedro has returned for the event with a new 'do and it seems that he and Diane are going to start dating. Rogelio gives him his best wishes and then asks him in front of the family to forgive him for his horrid behavior towards his cousin all these many long years. A paunchy Pau fixes her father's tie. JC is there in the room also. Gabe grabs them all and tells them how important they all are and how thankful he is to have their love.
Leo walks Mariangela to the altar. Her gown's unbelievably long train stretches for an entire block behind her. Before the ceremony Gabe tells her now there is nobody to keep him apart from her any longer. Mariangela tells him that from that day on their happiness will be eternal.
The two say their vows on the banks of the lake beside the Cervantes Bravo mansion. Afterward they take a celebratory canoe trip around the lake and meet up in the middle of the bridge that crosses it. Everything everywhere is covered in masses of nuptial flowers. On the bridge they tell each other how much they love each other and embrace happily as they look to the lake and beyond. FIN.
Roll credits --and pop the champagne!
Gabe and Nic watch the video on Demian's cell phone and see Jos' confession to the many murders she's committed over the past couple of years. --Why, who'd a thunk it? --Nic says that with all the explosives Demian gave her there is no doubt she was the one responsible for murdering Demian as well.

I bet Jos was still playing an angle, even when she was all regretful and at death's door.
(The Trouble with Trebles? Hahahahha. ;)

I loved this episode - there were more rehabilitated bad guys than usual, even Rogelio improved. What an unconvincing wedding though, no good vibes at all. Lots of good vibes with Leo though, he is a heart-warmer. Jos was great. Thanks for all your Fridays! And thanks to all the other Mundo recappers! It's so satisfying to have recapped it start to finish, isn't it?
Excellent very good...my favorite part, Jos yammering on and on and on and what appears to be gallons of blood on the cement and spilt jello (brain matter I suppose)...Jos didn't damage her appearance even falling from that height. And Gabe you never disappoint me..you were as clueless in the Fin as thruout the whole novela...sometime around LD's & LG's middleschool years I see you puttering around the garden and MA puttering the gardner.
Wow I just remembered this, back at the beginning of this, Edgar & Dolores were on the boat, he was going to tell her some big Miriam secret, but he passed out & Jackel tried to kill him and they left Dolores to take the fall...Did they ever say what the big secret was?
I bet the big secret was that Leo was Miriam's hijo. I don't think it's so terribly exciting, but it was one of the last big secrets to be revealed, so it makes sense.
I think the cast of Mundo is going to be on The Christina Show on monday night

Hey all! I couldn't keep up with this when it started. There were so many people and so much bad stuff going on. Did you find the end satisfying or was it like a big joke or what?
Signed Curious Minds want to know.

Fantastic job Jardinera, very funny finale! I love the image of Jos getting transported in a Catwoman suit. It's so Jos.
Well done Mundo recappers. On to the distillery...

Recappers and recap readers: Thanks for taking the time!
My answer to Curious' questions, it always takes me a while to sort folks out. I usually refer to the cast descriptions for the first few days.// The ending was both unsatisfying and a big joke. Who wanted to really see Jos suddenly develop a conscience, let alone die after asking forgiveness by everyone? Better she should remain alive and scarfaced or something for all the horrible torture (like nearly boiling her son alive), vile murder, and mayhem she planned and instigated. --Miriam should be washing toilets in prison, half blind (in honor of Clemente) and reading about Otilia's fashion design empire going worldwide. Gabe could have at least told Mariangela he'd always suspected his wife like Dolores but lacked proof instead of being so damned gullible and accepting to the very end. --Jos' theatrics on the top of that building and slitting her wrists at the same time she voluntarily dropped 40 feet onto concrete while dressed like Catwoman to boot, was literal overkill any way you slice it. Sorry, guys and gals, but I did find myself wanting to snicker more than a few times and had to slap myself for it.
