Acorralada #142 Monday 8/6/07 Suspicions continue

Everyone in TeleMiami is still confused over whether Alejandro is really Max. Camila goes to talk to Diana about it, they end up arguing, and Diana throws her out. Immediately the doorbell rings so they assume that Camila's back for more, so out comes the bucket of water! Diana opens the door as Silvia throws a bucket of water onto --- Jorge! Oops. Sweet Jorge has come to bring Silvia flowers and this is how she treats him. Pobre de Jorge.

Ignacio's not worried about the whole Alejandro/Max quandry. He has a plan... He'll marry Octavia! If Alejandro is Max, he won't want to put is stepdad in jail! He asks her, and she accepts. Eeeew.

Diego vists Pancho in the room with the warehouse size box fan where all of the Accorralada criminals hang out when they're not in an abandoned shack on the beach. He wears his Ranger ball cap for the occasion - he always breaks that out when he's up to no good. He tells Pancho that before he lets her be with another man, he'll kill her!

Marcela's mama's bandages are removed, and she learns that she's blind. Marcella is beside herself - what will they do? They have no money, no insurance, they haven't even paid the rent! Alejandro offers to pay all of their expenses. Pedro has no problem with this, his money is Alejandro's money. Besides, Alejandro is such a shrewd business man that he's helped Pedro double his fortune!

The witches are sitting around a table at casa Irazabal while Yolanda paints. I love the ceramic dog centerpiece! Yolanda's sick of hearing them whine about Diana.

Gaby and Fedora are ready to go to work at the fabrica, and Roddy suggests that they ask if Sharon wants to go with them. Fedora knocks on Sharon's door and finds her staring at herself in a silver framed mirror and brushing her hair. Of course she's not ready for a day at the office and they have a showdown which ends in Sharon throwing Fedora out of her room.

Sharon has bigger plans for the day - she's going to visit Larry. When she gets there she sees that he's swimming laps and she wants to join him, but she didn't bring her bikini. No problemo, she'll swim nude! Larry's shocked! Even more so when she goes underwater and comes back up with his bathing suit. He's not sure what to say to this crazy girl.

As luck would have it, Gaby has arrived to visit Larry just in time to catch his bathing suit when Sharon throws it. Larry and Sharon get out of the pool and stand there in all their glory looking like the cat that swallowed the canary. Gaby's disgusted, and Yolanda runs out to see what the commotion is. She's furious and calls Sharon a desvergonzada. Larry tells Sharon that's she's crazy and she says maybe that's just what he needs to forget about Gaby. Triple yuck.


Of course Sharon runs to tell Kike about Gaby's visit to Larry. Kike is not happy. Pobre de Gaby. She's sure to get a paliza for this.

Pedro receives several visits from the ladies in love with Alejandro - first it's Diana who wants to know if he's really Max, but Pedro assure her that he's not. Max is dead and she must accept it. Later it's Fiona who's come to see Alejandro, but Alejandro's not home. But that's okay, Pedro would like to have a conversation with her. (this line really is the best of the show - I love the way he enunciates "conversacion contigo.") Fiona picks up on his tone and wants to know what it's about... he wants to know if he's in love with Alejandro, or if she's just a gold digger. She swears that she's in love with him, not his money. As they continue to discuss Alejandro, Pedro accidently refers to Alejandro as Maximilliano! Fiona is impactada, as is Pedro. (Really - the look on Pedro's face in this scene is priceless!)

Alejandro visits Camila, who wants to tell him to his face that she knows that he's really Max. He reacts by reaching out and grabbing her by the neck and we see her grasping for air. Eventually he lets her go and apologizes for overreacting.

Fedora lets Roddy know that Sharon didn't go to work, simply because she didn't want to. Of course he defends her because she must have been upset over her mother's death. Fedora suggests that she see a psychiatrist, to which Sharon runs into the room crying that she's not crazy. This one really knows how to work the men in Miami! Roddy tells Sharon that he plans to legally adopt her. After they leave the room, Sharon says that soon she will have her revenge.

Pedro tries to talk his way out of the slip of the tongue, but Fiona is suspicious. She tells Pedro to tell Alejandro that she was there and storms out of the room. Pedro berates himself for the mistake, then tells himself that Diana is better for Max.

At Paco's place, Fiona is telling herself that Alejandro or Max, it doesn't matter. She needs a rich man to support her. Won't it be fabulous if she turns out to be pregnant?

Alejandro goes to visit Diana at work. It's a boring talk - he wants to tell her that he'll protect her, yadda yadda. Then she reaches out and touches his lips and says that they feel the same as Max's did. He calls her Azucena. Azucena! That's what Max called her in the sanatorio. credits roll.

(Really - the look on Pedro's face in this scene is priceless!)

I agree--it was hilarious. I wonder what the casting call was in his case--old toothless actors wanted?

It's so funny that they had two of those goofy scenes in this ep where the characters mix up the names and give themselves away.
 

(Alejandro visits Camila, who wants to tell him to his face that she knows that he's really Max. He reacts by reaching out and grabbing her by the neck and we see her grasping for air.)

Don't you find this shocking? I know he's supposed to be in revenge mode, and Camila is the one really involved with the fire, but it is out of character for Max to suddenly be a cold-blooded killer, so much so that he would strangle someone with his bare hands. I just found this entirely creepy.
 

thanks so much for the recap. I realize I missed a lot of the dialogue. I really don't like the Alejandro
in revenge mode. The ones he really should be after is Dr. Evil and Diego.
