Mundo de Fieras - March 20, 2007 the end is near!
* Leo enters the room - Gabe and MA are curious - Leo pauses at the desk and slowly tells MA the results of the tests show that LD isn't her son - she's in shock and Gabe is confused - Leo goes on to tell them that Jossie is the mother of LD, MA is the mother of LG. Gabe is in disbelief and yells his outrage. He wants an explanation. Leo can't offer any, only that the test results don't lie. Gabe and MA are having a difficult time understanding - Leo will go to discuss this with the two attending physicians at the time of the boys' births to find out more information. Leo leaves. Gabe gives MA a hug.
* German is finishing his destruction in Leo's rural route clinic. He laughs at his success in destroying all the medicine and vaccines in the place. He leaves.
* Leo meets with Dr. F and Dr. V to discover from Dr. F that Miriam ordered that Jossie and her son be released before it was safe to do so. Leo takes charge in questioning the nurses on duty at the nursery, as well as keep MA and Gabe abreast of the developments.
* Mastin drags Elsa's lifeless body to the hospital emergency room door.
* MA and Gabe stop Jossie in the hallway - MA scolds Jossie with the accusation that Jossie switched the babies - Jossie is shocked and mortified by the accusation and denies it. Gabe jumps into the argument on MA's side - Jossie yells louder than the two of them that she is innocent and is outraged that they would accuse her of doing such a thing. Gabe tells Jossie that there will be an investigation and he will see to it that those at fault will be brought to justice.
* Nurses find the limp Elsa outside the emergency room door and bring her inside.
* Leo talks with the nurse who was working at the nursery that night. She tells Leo that she remembers finding Miriam at the nursery door, and that she says she was looking at her grandson. Leo concludes that Miriam may be the culprit who made the switch.
* Calmed down a bit, Jossie and Gabe are alone in the hallway and continue to discuss MA's accusation of Jossie. Jossie continues to deny and say she is innocent. He is still skeptical. Jossie ends by accusing Gabe of starting the battle in the first place and then walks away.
* Leo and the nurse continue their discussion when another nurse enters frantic and tells Leo about the lady they just brought in unconscious. Leo ends the discussion and leaves with the frantic nurse.
* As the nurse brings Leo into the room, he sees Elsa in the bed not moving. He gives the nurse some orders, and starts to tend to his sister. He talks with her and kisses her forehead. He says he will do whatever medically necessary to save her life.
* German and Cecilia have a fierce discussion in their living room about his obsessive compulsive need to control her life. She wants some freedom to go out and have a life. He refuses to even consider it. She wants to see Leo - he forbids it. Before leaving the room, German tells Cecilia that Leo has returned to Mexico City/Cuencas, and insinuates that Leo has either a girlfriend back there or is already married. Cecilia has tears in her eyes.
* Gabe meets with Nick in the hallway - Gabe is determined to go to the police and start an investigation against Jossie, for switching LG and LD.
* Jossie returns to the palace and in the office tells Miriam that Gabe and MA have discovered the truth about LD and LG - and there may be grave consequences because of it.

* Candy and Sylvester find Leo in the hospital waiting room - Leo tells them the upsetting news that Elsa was brought in unconscious due to alcohol poisoning.
* Candy sits and cries at Elsa's bedside.
* Leo visits Miriam at her palace office. He confronts her about the switch of LD and LG - he asks her directly if she did it - she stares at him a moment, then responds in horror how mortified she is that he would even ask her that, she is his real mom after all. Leo says he knows that, but he also remembers that she is a fiera and is capable of anything. She is still shocked at his accusations and thinks Candy put the doubts in his head. Leo apologizes but restates that he has to investigate this, it is part of his job.
* Jossie is playing with LD in MA's bedroom - MA enters with an update on LG - Jossie isn't interested, LG isn't her son, she has her son right here in her arms. MA is starting to cry and wants to hold LD - Jossie denies her request. MA continues to whine and cry and beg - Jossie continues to deny the request, MA and Gabe now know the truth and they can take care of LG - she and only she will care for LD, he is her son. Jossie carries LD out the door, and leaves MA alone crying.
* Elsa starts to wake and sees Leo, Candy and Sylvester standing beside her bed. They start to talk to her - she cries that she wants to live - Candy says she will. Elsa says she needs help but won't return to the center - Candy and Sylvester promise she won't ever return there. Elsa apologizes for her actions and her alcoholism - Candy accepts the apology.
* Nick and Gabe meet again in the hallway. Gabe is more determined than ever to go full force and get the police involved. He also wants to go after Miriam, as Jossie's accomplice.
* At the palace, Mayeya opens the door - the police detective is there to speak with Miriam. Miriam comes downstairs and the detective tells her she needs to go with him to make a statement about Gabe's accusation of baby switching. Miriam suspects he is doing this because of Leo.
* Sylvester and Elsa have a heart-to-heart talk in private. She talks about her alcoholism and their relationship. She says he isn't to blame for her actions, the only one responsible for what happened is her. He is crying and frustrated. He wants to help her but she keeps rejecting him - she asks for forgiveness - he just wants to see her happy.
* Miriam arrives at the police squad room - Nick and Gabe are already there - she confronts Gabe and Nick about getting the police involved in this matter. Gabe and Nick defend their actions. Jossie enters to support her mom, and then gets into a shouting match with Gabe for getting the police involved and accusing her and her mom like this.
* Leo and Candy share a hug at the apartment before he leaves for the rural clinic.
* Cecilia returns home upset and confronts her father about destroying all the medicine and vaccines in Leo's office. German gets after her for accusing him - she continues - he slaps her - she yells at him that it was his fault that her mother ran away from him. He orders her to go to her room.
* Demian calls Jossie for an update but Jossie is busy and hangs up. Demian thinks that if Jossie doesn't kill Gabe, he will have to kill her.
* Elsa stands up in front of the AA meeting and introduces herself to the group. As she starts to tell her tragic tale with alcohol, Sylvester and Candy sit in the back of the room and listen with the rest of the group members. As Elsa talks, she starts to cry (buckets of telenovela tears). At the end, everyone applauds.
* Leo stands in the hacienda living room and confronts German for destroying all the medicine and vaccines in his office. German sits on the sofa with a gun in his hand and denies the charges. Leo continues to accuse German - German gets up and orders him to leave immediately - Leo goes nose to nose with German and then leaves. German grumbles about wanting to kill Leo - Cecilia enters the room and overhears his grumbling and asks him what he means by it.
* Jossie and Miriam are talking in the bedroom when Gabe enters. Miriam leaves. Gabe politely asks Jossie to permit MA to hold LD - she did care for him as his mother since infancy. Jossie outright refuses to even consider the request. Gabe is frustrated, and calmly tells Jossie to reconsider or be forced to comply. Gabe leaves.
* Mayeya and Tweety are cleaning in the office and amusing MA with their chatter. They start to pull out the drawer of the bureau. MA sees the envelope and pulls it from the bottom of the drawer. MA opens and reads it - it is the lost letter/will of Don Clemente saying that MA is his only heir. MA, Mayeya and Tweet are shocked and surprised. (AY! CARAY! CARAY!)
THE GRAND FINALE IS FRIDAY!

I was very happy, actually, that Elsa did not die, but instead went to AA. I'm so surprised they are willing to rehabilitate her but this may be the best PSA ever. I'm thrilled.
MA was, I think, a brittle and uncharismatic lead. Pau and JC were such lightweights, they barely registered on my radar. Jos is really the queen of this novela.
Thanks for all the great effort and filling in the blanks when I don't have the time.
But what really bugs me about MA is her South American accent (couldn't tell if it's Columbian or some other), which is a little too exotic when she's supposed to be from a poor little Mexican town.
Alma... originally from a poor little Mexican town
I totally agree about MA in this novela. She can model, but she's not very compelling for the long term.
You folks have done a FANTASTIC job with this show. I laugh my patootie off every time I read about the fieras, the kooks and the wimps. I sure hope you all continue recapping, you're real gems.
Late comment for Beckster: Honey, you're the bomb! I adore your recaps cuz you are kinda crazy and sometimes sound like you should star in your own telenovela. Your description of Demian's creepy scene in bed with Reina Regina's photo was a masterpiece.
Good Luck Jardinera! You get to turn off the lights so to speak on this novela Friday night.
My summary recap style has taken several years to practice and perfect (and several boxes of pens/pencils and packs of legal notepads).
just so you know, MA (Gaby Espino) will be appearing in a new show on Telemundo very soon - they've already started to promo the thing showing Gaby in dental floss bikinis on luxury yachts and calling her a "fiera". So I guess she may be moving to some posh condo digs in Miami, Florida, for awhile.
