Zorro, Tues. June 26 - Esme, Warrior Princess, gets training; Aaron does his last exorcism and an old friend visits Mangle
Diego finds Esme's discarded clothes on the riverbank. He is sure Esme is close by. Bernardo thinks he is crazy.
Esme is in a super sexy warrior outfit learning to use a sword while the Amazons, Garcia and Camba look on appreciatively. Good hair care is important in warfare and Esme's mane is has lost its feminine curls but is perfectly combed and shiny.
At the gypsy camp, NAC is marrying Renzo. [I thought they were in a hurry to get to LA to see the Queen.] Renzo looks nice with his hair down. We have the sacred sesame bread breaking scene.
Almudena is feeling better. [It seems to be true that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Almudena seems to have forgotten that she decided she couldn't livewithout Esme once she found out about Yumi and Al.] Apparently Al has taken Yumi to Bufala Blanca (BB). Dolores tells Almudena that since her sister's husband has rejected her, Yumi will be looked down on by the rest of the tribe and may starve to death.
On a break on their journey to see BB, Al and Yumi rehash their situation. Yumi denies poisoning Almudena. Al says that he believes her. Yumi says that she gave Almudena a worse poison – she fell in love with Al. Al says that he has feelings for her too, but... Yumi accepts the situation and says that she wants to return to the lands of her people.
Agapito, who has been transformed from incompetent drunk to analytical chemist, is testing the little bottle that Diego gave him. He determines that the bottle contains arsenic and also something else that might be an aphrodisiac. While his barbering client waits impatiently, Agapito concludes that the potion is an aphrodisiac in small quantities but a lot of it is a fatal poison. [Presumably, this is what Mangle bought way back when to trap Diego. It didn't work as an aphrodisiac on Diego, he just fell asleep.]
When they are camped for the night, Diego rehashes to Bernardo that Esme's and his fates are intertwined and he is sure that she is alive. He believes that she is leaving signs to help him find her. He swears that he will find her no matter what.
Garcia warns Esme about the Amazons – the legends say that they capture men to conceive children and then kill them. Esme doesn't believe it. The Amazons have been nice to her. She asks Garcia what happens if an Amazon gives birth to a baby boy. Garcia says he doesn't know. That page of the book was missing. Cut to two Amazon babes leading Camba to the river where it looks like some child conceiving action is going to go on.
Garcia tries to convince Esme to give up her plan of vengeance. She is young, beautiful and rich. She can start a new life. Esme isn't convinced. She also isn't convinced Diego really loves her. Garcia realizes that he can't change her mind and asks Esme to take his advice since he is the oldest and wisest person. Esme agrees.
Some more gypsy marriage customs that involve sprinkling things on people's heads and breaking a jar. NAC and Renzo swear they will be happy forever. [Usually this means something bad is going to happen right away.] SK explains to Hermes that the jar represents happiness and abundance and everyone wants a piece of it as a talisman. Hermes thanks SK for saving his life.
Laisha has made good time and enters LA where she is spotted by Montero. She tries to hide from him but it is clear that he recognizes her.
Catalina is getting dressed up and Tobias asks her why. She says that she has been summoned to make a dress for the Queen for the masquerade ball. Tobias doesn't believe her. As usual between them, the conversation turns to Pizarro. Catalina says that she is trying to get rid of Pizarro but it isn't easy. She is afraid that he will hurt Tobias. Tobias asks how she ever got involved with that murderer. Catalina says that at first she was flattered by his attention but then she was trapped. There is a knock at the door. It's Pizarro calling Catalina to go see the Queen. Tobias is disgusted.
The Queen is reviewing decorations for the masquerade ball that DJ has made. She approves them but notices that DJ is rather glum. DJ expresses his fear for her safety since the bandit Zorro has gotten into her room twice and escaped. The Queen accuses DJ of trying to separate her from her subjects. The Queen asks DJ, “What should I do, cancel the ball?” “No,” says DJ, “but don't open it to the public. Let me make a list of invited persons.” The Queen agrees.
Diego and Bernardo have come to a big cliff. Diego wants to climb it. Bernardo prefers going around. Diego prevails. Diego send Bernardo to tie up their horses with food and starts to climb. Meanwhile, Esme is having archery practice. She aims at Garcia and he hides behind the ridiculous halberd that the Amazons must have gotten from the Indians.
While climbing, Bernardo starts to fall and Diego grabs him and pulls him to safety. Meanwhile, we cut to scenes of Esme being put through her paces in warrior training. On a break, she thinks about Diego and says that she needs to know if there is any hope for them. She needs to know.
Mangle is reading FS's papers. She is incensed when she discovers that her inheritance is two houses in Madrid and some land in Barcelona. Cursing her father, Mangle has abdominal pain and had a hemorrhage earlier. Olmos and Agapito come in. Agapito scolds her for getting up too early. Mangle asks for pain killers. Olmos asks if he should notify Diego about Mangle's illness. Mangle responds that Diego is out of town. “Too bad,” says Mr. I'm-so-discrete Agapito, “ I need to tell him about the poison.” Mangle is all ears. Having let the cat out of the bag, Agapito now says that Diego has asked that he not mention this to anyone.” “I'm not anyone,” says Mangle, “I'm Diego's wife.” Agapito agrees and tells her that Almudena was being poisoned slowly with arsenic and that he believes that his treatment saved her. Mangle says that she will visit Almudena as soon as Agapito finishes examining her.
MP is with Almudena. Almudena asks MP if, when she marries, she will take Yumi and protect her. [So Almudena wants to put a beautiful, young uninhibited woman in MP's household?] MP says that she will do what she can.
At the Indian camp, Al tells Yumi that he will try and get permission for her to live in Bufala Blanca's tent. [Now we find out that BB is dead.] Yumi doesn't care. Her only concern is that she lost the respect of Almudena.
Aaron and FS are doing an exorcism of a young girl. Suddenly, the girl gets demonic strength and attacks Aaron. Nobody moves too fast to get her off him. Whatever she did to him, it was mortal and Aaron dies encouraging FS to get rid of what's evil in his heart or the Devil will take him again.
MP and Fonzie have come to see PT. MP wants to get married in the mission chapel. PT is surprised that she doesn't want to have the ceremony in the Cathedral in town. MP is sure. She spent a lot of happy times in the convent and she wants her former sisters to be at the ceremony. PT agrees. MP then ask Fonzie to leave her alone with PT. She wants to confess. When PT congratulates MP on her future husband, MP tells him that FS is still missing and she is worried that something happened to him. PT realizes that MP still holds FS in her heart and she admits it.
Prudencio and another servant of the Governor are searching for FS where he was seen recently dressed a monk. All of sudden, FS scurries by carrying Aaron's body. They call to him but he doesn't acknowledge their presence. [I wonder if Arturo Peniche wasn't available for some days of shooting. In none of the scenes since FS tried to hang himself have we seen his face. Even his voice was different when he was begging Aaron not to die. It was a hoarse whisper.]
Mangle comes to see Almudena. She lays it on thick about Yumi being guilty of the poisoning and says that she is sure Yumi will try again.
Olmos goes to see Selenia but she has left town [sorry folks]. Olmos is disappointed. He wanted to pay her for making him the happiest man in the world.
Mangle is returning to her father's house when her carriage is stopped by someone we only see from the back. Mangle is impactada. “You!” she says unhelpfully.
Garcia is packing up the treasure chest. He and Camba are going to take it to San Diego and get a house and some clothes for Esme.
Meanwhile, Diego has found the place where Esme found the treasure. He feels Esme's presence in the place but where is she now? Ever practical, Bernardo suggest that they follow the tracks.
While the newlyweds and the other young people in the tribe celebrate, Honas, Azucena, SK and Hermes get more news on the masquerade ball. To get in you have have an invitation signed by the Queen. SK asks what they should do. Honas tells her that with money anything is possible. They will find a corrupt government official willing to sell them an invitation and then they'll use that one to forge others. SK looks forward to seeing her cousin and astonishing FS and Montero by returning from the dead. She says that several traitors will be unmasked at the masquerade ball.
Laisha literally runs into Montero in the street. He recognizes her as Miguel's wife who gave herself to him to try and protect Miguel. Montero wants to know why she is following him around.
The guy who accosted Mangle turns out to be none other than the supposedly dead, Santiago Michelena (SM). He's poor and he's come looking for her to pick up where they left off. Mangle tells him that his sister wrote to her that he was dead but it turns out the sister is dead. The whole point of this scene is for Mangle to tell SM that she's married to a rich idiot named Diego de la Vega and for SM to say that he doesn't want to mess with the wife of a great swordsman like Diego. “Qué?” says Mangle. So the whole plot of Tobias to find someone who would recognize Zorro's swordsmanship has come to fruition in a roundabout way.
The Amazon warrior who speaks Spanish tells Esme about the tribes' reproductive strategy – no love, just procreation visits twice a year to the rest of the tribe. Esme is sorry that the Amazons have not experienced love for a man [No one is suggesting that two women could love each other.] The Amazon asks Esme if she has experienced love and in response Esme tells the warrior some of the complicated story of her relationship with Diego. Esme wants to go back to LA and have Diego tell her to her face that he doesn't love her any more. She also wants vengeance on those who killed her mother and her child. The Amazon tells Esme that she believes the leader of the tribe wants in on the vengeance part. They will fight with Esme.
Diego and Bernardo are following Esme's tracks when they are surprised by a group of Amazons.
The credits roll.

Thanks for the great recap Jean.
I, too was thinking that Peniche must have had a vacation or something because why else wouldn't we be seeing his face. Unless something terrible happened to Fernando's face while he was attempting to hang himself and we'll get the big reveal at a later point.
I also forgot to mention this the other day ---when Diego discovered the mapdallion, I noticed that in every scene his left hand was hidden. In fact when he used the ashes to rub on the paper over the mapdallion it looked really awkward because he didn't use his left hand. Any idea if Christian injured himself?
I had a feeling that Santiago was going to turn up at some point. Didn't think he'd be the one to reveal that Diego is a master swordsman. I don't think that Mangle is going to believe it anyway, since she is quite convinced her husband is only rich & good looking.
I thought I rememberd Yumi awhile back telling Al that BB had crossed the great river. So if they are telling Dena they went to see BB they're lying again. I suppose when you jump forward six months in time, many of the details get forgotten.
I was kinda sad to see Brother Aaron die. I also will miss Selenia, I wish she'd have stuck around for awhile. At least she can come back at some point. And, of course, I still miss Auggie. Oh why do the interesting secondary characters always get killed off or have to leave?
Speaking of leaving, I'm off for my camping trip in about an hour. I'll miss the next three days of Zorro, and hopefully will get to catch up on Sunday so I'll be set for Monday's recap.
Thanks in advance Jen, for covering for me tonight. Hasta pronto.

Cathy - I think Jean or Jeanne is covering for you tonight (Wed)! I remembered one of them responded to your initial ask (in any case, I'll be watching the show, so I can sub in if necessary)
At first I thought that they were doing the FS-from-behind stuff as an artistic decision, but if they're continuing it (haven't seen last night's ep), this must have been at the point when Arturo Peniche WAS unavailable. Osvaldo Rios (Alej) wrote on the Telemundo foro some weeks ago that he broke AP's nose during the taping of a fight scene. It was fractured in two places, and he had to get surgery!
And Cathy, as to Christian Meier's left hand, I believe he broke/fractured it as well. Someone posted an interview with him on youtube, and I think he injured it while dismounting a horse. In the interview he was in a cast.
Zorro - hazardous to the health!
Don'tcha just love how now this story has AMAZONS, and we just roll with the punches?!
Crap! Brother Aaron died! Can there be any hope for FS now? The man is convinced that he needs an external source to keep him on the straight and narrow; I fear without Bro A around, he'll just go back to the same ol' FS.
Thanks for the recap, Jean!

Just to clarify, I am filling in and doing the recap tonight (Wed.)
It certainly appeared on the previews for tonight's episode that the penny does drop for Mangle and she figures out that Diego is Zorro.
I bet the nose breaking incident is why we haven't seen FS's face.
I think we're going to have some final battle between the bad guys: Montero/Pizarro, the soldiers, DJ and Misael and FS's men and the good guys: Zorro, SK & the gypsies, Esme & the Amazons, Al's men, PT & the nuns and Yumi.

Jean, thanks for the recap and your wiesenhiemer comments about hair care, sacred sesame seeds, and drunkard-to-analytical chemist conversions.
At least Agapito offered Almudena a free haircut, rather than a burial.
Funny how the men show up in Amazonville . . . in pairs, one tiny, one tall.
Hmmmmm, did Esmerelda take any responsibility for her separation from Diego/his marriage to Mangle during the rehash with the Spanish-speaking shewarrior? Wasn't it Esme's actions that set off that chain of events? Just askin' . . .

True, Marie, Esme's decision to marry Montero started a lot of the problems. However, Esme and Diego seemed to get past each of these problems. They would have a misunderstanding and then acknowledge that they still loved one another.
But when Esme was in prison, first Olmos betrayed her with the notes that she wrote to Diego and then Mangle came and claimed that she and Diego were so happy. I never thought Esme really bought all that crap except when was really down but I guess she has doubts.

Wha?...Aaron dies just like that?
Selenia is gone, just like that?
Sure sounds like things are heating up in Amazonland. Good point Jean about no mention of two Amazon women loving each other. They sure seemed pretty affectionate to me so I just assumed... However that notion might be a bit much for a telenovela.
Very funny recap, you had me laughing right out the gate with "good hair care is important in warfare." Heh heh, good one.
Cathy, I wondered the same thing about Diego/Christian. Jen, thanks for the details explaining about Arturo and Christian.
Excellent recap, thanks Jean!

The place won't be the same without my man Aaron the Exorcist around. But maybe Fernando will take up Aaron's mission now that he's become a cowly hermit type. (And least until his nose heals up!)
But it kind of makes an Aaron-Selenia hook-up more complicated. Shoot, I was looking forward to that.
I'm hoping for a Selenia return. The fact that they had Olmos go out to her house could be a sign they intend to bring her back. Who knows, she may show up in the Amazon camp.
Mangle was too busy manking goo-goo eyes at Olmos to drill Agapito about the details of his poison testing. She just picked up that he had discovered Almudena was being poisoned, not that Diego had given Agapito a separate little vial to test.
Almudena is already starting to wonder about just who put the poison in her medicine. It wasn't very cunning of Mangle to go running out to the hacienda just to tell Almudena it must have been that evil Indian poisoning her and then run back to town. I wonder if she stopped to say hello to the baby?
And what was Laisha up to in the city? Apparently not to rat out the gitanos to Montero. Although that's what she's probably going to wind up doing.

Jean, terrific recap! I’m still laughing! I didn’t see this one yet, so your recap did it for me.
“Good hair care is important in warfare and Esme's mane is has lost its feminine curls but is perfectly combed and shiny.” ROTFL! (In an airport club room, which is a no-no).
“At the gypsy camp, NAC is marrying Renzo. [I thought they were in a hurry to get to LA to see the Queen.] Renzo looks nice with his hair down.” Clearly, this is a night with a focus on hair. ;-)
“Almudena is feeling better.” It’s possible that not having any additional arsenic in her system is helping?
“Agapito, who has been transformed from incompetent drunk to analytical chemist,” LOL! And he is so good at both, plus a whole lot of other things.
“He believes that she is leaving signs to help him find her.” It’s his story and he’s sticking too it. Never mind that while it’s true there are signs she’s alive, she’s not consciously leaving them for him….
“Garcia warns Esme about the Amazons – the legends say that they capture men to conceive children and then kill them. Esme doesn't believe it. The Amazons have been nice to her.” Well, of COURSE they have, Esme. It’s not YOU they’re going to kill.
“Cut to two Amazon babes leading Camba to the river where it looks like some child conceiving action is going to go on.” Maybe they’ll just keep Camba and send Garcia and Esme on their way. Oh, wait, she’s going to be the queen.
“NAC and Renzo swear they will be happy forever. [Usually this means something bad is going to happen right away.]” Certainly will if Laisha has her way.
“Agapito agrees and tells her that Almudena was being poisoned slowly with arsenic and that he believes that his treatment saved her.” Oh, bother. That means Mangle will be with us for a while more.
“[I wonder if Arturo Peniche wasn't available for some days of shooting. In none of the scenes since FS tried to hang himself have we seen his face. Even his voice was different when he was begging Aaron not to die. It was a hoarse whisper.]” Very interesting theory!
“Olmos goes to see Selenia but she has left town [sorry folks].” Poor Bruce! At least he’s got the Amazons to console him for a while.
“SM to say that he doesn't want to mess with the wife of a great swordsman like Diego. “Qué?” says Mangle. So the whole plot of Tobias to find someone who would recognize Zorro's swordsmanship has come to fruition in a roundabout way” Uh-oh. Not exactly what any of us want to see happen.
