Amar Sin Limites #15 Tuesday 8/14/07

Tuesday's show begins at Men's Wearhouse Mexico, where Diego is signing his termination papers as the tailors rally behind him talking about what a raw deal he got, as he's the best salesman in the store. Perla looks almost pleased with herself, I'm not sure what's going on there. Abuelo says that he's going to leave with Diego, but Diego convinces him not to do it. Abuelo agrees that he'll stay.

Just then Mauricio calls to confirm his appointment with Diego and learns that Diego is leaving, but someone else in the store will be able to assist him when he comes in. Mauricio wants to make sure that he sees his BFF again, so he asks for Diego's cell number.

Silvana is in a therapy session with Emilia talking about her issues with her mama, but Emilia's much more interested in her relationship with Diego. She asks for his last name and Silvana tells her that it's Moran, why? Emilia says that she was just curious. Silvana's gushing about Diego's abrazos, but Emilia telsls her that she need to be thinking about herself, and getting stronger. Besides, she's sure that she's in love with Diego.

As she leaves the office, Diego is waiting outside to escort her. He tells her that Mauricio came into the store and they talked. Silvana is furious! This man is responsible for her son's death, and now Diego's chatting him up! He's betrayed her! Diego's a brave one - he tells her that Mauricio doesn't seem to be a monster, maybe he just made a mistake. Silvana runs away, telling him that she doesn't want to see him.

Arnaldo comes to apologize to Alfredo, who's speechless. Alfredo says that he's sad to imagine that soon Arnaldo will find another man, and they'll get a French poodle that they'll groom and dress up and treat like it's a son. Alfredo thinks it's pathetic. Pobre de Arnaldo. His daddy's a homophobic pig.

Later Arnaldo tells Azul about his conversation with Alfredo. She's not happy to hear how closed minded Alfredo is being... Arnaldo asks her if she knows who's the love of her life, and she just looks away.

Gloria's on the phone talking about some blood red silk that she has, it's almost transparent... it's creepy - I think that she's trying to seduce someone, but she's talking baby talk. Yuk! Luckily, she's interrupted by Silvana's arrival and quickly gets off the phone. She's blabbering about about something meaningless when Silvana tells her to shut up - why is everyone against her!? She runs to her room, knocking over the ironing board as she goes.

Diego calls to talk to Silvana, but she refuses to talk to him. He asks her not to leave Silvana alone, he's going to call her doctor.

The poppet is having a nightmare about her mama's accident. She's crying out in her sleep when her nanny comes in and wakes her to comfort her.

Diego visits Gloria and tells her that it wasn't his fault. Gloria understands - she doesn't think Mo is bad either, he even came to the house and offered to help Silvana. The poor guy is a widow with a child. Diego thinks it would be good to prove that Nico was dead when Mo arrived, but he doesn't think that Silvana would be able to accept that it's nobody's fault, it was just an accident.

Mo and Azul are comforting the poppet, who dreamed that Nico and her mama were still alive. Mo and Azul try to cheer her up, but it doesn't seem to be working.

Silvana's pacing like a caged lion in Emilia's office as she talks about how Diego betrayed her. Emilia wants to know if he's betrayed her by not sharing in her hate, or returning her love? Ah, good question!

Arnaldo talks to tia Ines about Alfredo... she's worried about him because she doesn't like to see him unhappy. Arnaldo wants to know why she worries about his papa so much and she says that she loves him very much. Arnaldo catches this and calls her on it, but she gets nervous and runs to the kitchen for refills on their tea.

Mo and Leo are talkign about what else Caty may have seen at the accident. He's nervous... Azul interrupts to have Mo sign some papers and is surprised by the tension. They claim that nothing is wrong and Leo makes her exit. Azul asks why they're always talking in a low voice, but Mo claims that's just the way that Leo is.

Diego's laying in bed trying to ignore his ringing phone, finally he gets up to answer it and it's no other than his new buddy Mo, who wants to come to Diego's house to get his opinion on the suit he just picked up. This is a bizarre conversation, but it ends with Mo taking down Diego's address and promising to be there soon.

Lidia's wife has come to visit him at the office. She wants to talk about Lidia's upcoming nuptials and learns that she's not getting married because she's not in love. Wifey wants to know if maybe it's because Lidia's in love with Piero. It wouldn't be the first time a secretary fell in love with the boss.

Azul advises Mo to take Caty to a therapist. Leonardo is not exactly motherly and warm... Mo tries to say that Leo is very affectionate and protective of Caty, but Azul isn't buying that for a dollar. She basically says that she calls it like she sees it, but he doesn't have to take her advice. She gathers her papers and leaves, leaving Mo scowling at her desk.

Wifey sees Lidia at her desk and asks her why she's not getting married. Maybe it's because she's in love with another man? Lidia claims that she's not in love with Paco, and isn't in love with anyone else either. Wifey doesn't seem to believe it, but leaves anyway. As soon as she's gone Piero's poking his head out the door to see what was said. Lidia's sure that she suspects something, and tells him that he's playing with fire.

Mo's at Diego's place talking about his daughter's frequent nightmares. He tells Diego that his wife lost control of the truck and died instantly. A little boy named Nicholas was also in the car - he was a friend of Caty's and she loved him very much. Diego keeps him response short - tells him that it must have been horrible for him and his daughter, but back to the suit - the cut is perfect. Mo admits that he wanted to see and talk to Diego again. (Is it just me, or is that a strange thing for a guy to say to another guy? Maybe he should call Arnaldo and let Diego have Azul!)

Speaking of Arnaldo, he's hanging out at Azul's place and she wants to know if he went back to Men's Wearhouse Mexico and he admits that he did. She's perturbed - she told him not to go back there. Arnaldo blows it off, he didn't even see Diego there.

Diego tells Mo that his fiance will love the suit. She must be beautiful, right? A yes, she's lovely. Mo invites him to the party so that he can meet her. He'd also like to offer Diego a job. Diego is impactado, and we go to commercial.

Back from commercial, Diego is considering the job offer, and Mo is telling him that it's obvious that he's professional and creative. He thinks it will be good for them both. Diego isn't sure that he wants to, so Mo tells him to come to the party and they can talk more about the offer. Diego isn't sure... Mo's not taking no for an answer.

Silvana's chewing Gloria out for seeing Diego behind her back. Gloria looks scared, Silvana looks furious. Nothing new here.

Azul and Arnaldo are chatting. As usual, she's trying to get more info about Diego (new word for me - averiguaste: you found out). It's basically the same conversation she has with Ceci all the time. She's surprised to hear that he was fired - he didn't seem irresponsible, but then he did stand her up a few times. Poor guy, she hates that he's without a job. Just wait until she finds out about his new opportunity!

Mo is still at Diego's place when abuelo comes home from work. A few words about the wonderful job abuelo did on the suit, then abuelo mentions that the brother of a girl he knows came into the store looking for him today. Diego tells Mo that it's the brother of the girl who's been driving him a little crazy. Of course no names are mentioned.

Mo leaves and Gloria calls Diego to tell him that Silvana is a hot mess - she's really fragile and he can't abandon her now. Diego tells abuelo that he feels hopeless. Just then Paco arrives and Diego asks what his plans are for tomorrow... he says he doesn't have to see the president or Britney Spears. Bueno - then of course Paco will attend the fiesta with Diego.

Party day arrives - white tents are set up, guys in white jackets are setting everything up, and Mo is prancing around in a white suite looking like an ice cream cone.

Diego tells Silvana that one of his motives for befriending Mo is to find out what really happened. Silvana doesn't want to hear it - she knows what happened - he killed her son! Now get out! Diego turns to leave, but she grabs his arm and tells him to be very careful, he's going into the wolf's den. Then she goes back to staring at pictures of Nico and crying.

Azul is still running around in a raspberry colored track suit and Alfredo wants to know why she's not dressed. Maybe she should wear the track suit - it will be perfect with Mo's ice cream cone getup.

Leo is freaking out about something having do with with preparing the food. I think she's upset that she's not supposed to be doing it. Andres tells her that she's not supposed to be there and this doesn't sit well with her. Andres gets a slap and responds by kissing her on the hand - very slowly and with an almost open mouth. She seems to enjoy it. Scary theme music plays as he tells Leo that these are the last moments they'll enjoy before Azul moves in and takes control of the house. Leo says she'll never allow Azul to control the house.

Mo is directing the guests to their seats. Arnaldo has arrived with Ceci on his arm, who's wearing a dress cut down to her belly button. I hope there's some double stick tape holding that baby down! Commercial break.

After the commercial, we see Diego arriving with Paco. Diego's wearing what appears to be a gold Century 21 blazer. Paco's impressed by the spread and sneaks across the lawn to get a snack. Andres goes to find out who he is, but Mo stops him when he realizes that he's with Diego. Mo runs over to introduce Caty to Diego and Paco.

Ceci leaves Arnaldo so she can go find Azul. Arnaldo is standing alone and gets the eye from Andres!!! Now that's a new twist. Quick chat with Alfredo, then Andres walks towards Arnaldo.. I thought we'd have a moment, but Andres doesn't even slow down as he passes.

Azul comes out dressed for the party in a dress that looks like it was stolen from the Stevie Nicks Bella Donna collection. Everyone kisses her and tells her how beautiful she looks. Leo stand by looking evil as always, with Andres behind her.

Diego and Paco are chatting.. Diego wants to go, but Paco wants to stay for a while. Mo comes over to get Diego - he wants to introduce him to his fiance... he brings Diego over to Azul and doesn't seem to notice the tension in the air as they're both obviously impactados! Credits roll.

Thanks for the great recap Amy. Loved your comment about Azul's dress and the Stevie Nicks collection. Well the party seems to be introducing interesting elements to the storyline.

Are we ever going to find out what is the relationship between Leo and Andres? I've seen a version of this novela and there was no character like Leo in that one.
 

Fantastic recap Amy, and so fast! I didn't watch this one, but I might skim through it for some of the parts you mentioned, I want to see Andres eyeballing Arnaldo, that must have been funny. And I want to see the end when Diego and Azul are finally confronted with the truth.
I agree that it's a bit strange for a guy to say to another guy that he wants to see him again, that sounds like end of first date talk.
It's too bad about Arnaldo's father, but at least that reaction is totally in character for him.
It's nice to see Diego looking out for himself a bit, he already lost his job and his chance at Azul (for now) to Silvana, thank God he's finally telling her to back off a bit.
Lastly - I want to know what's up with Andres and Leo - that part is making me crazy. It's so disturbing and weird, are they related, may-december romance, what? Creepy. I'm sure that answer, as well as the answer to what really happened 'that night' (shades of Heridas de Amor here) will be saved until the bitter end.
 

Ferro and Andres also gave the look to Arnaldo when he looked at him but when he passed by Arnaldo he didn't pay attention to him. Is Andres bisexual or is he gay also?? This is all creepy I think Aurelio's friend who is a mechanic is also gay and his son also.

I thought the identical thing when I saw Diego's sun colored jacket, wha? He's got a job offer to work for Century 21! You did a great job recapping, thanks.

Yeah, I was wondering about the looks that Andres and Arnaldo exchanged. With all that ominous thunder in the background. Andres didnt seem to be giving him the look of love though...more like hate. Maybe we were supposed to get it that Arnaldos gaydar alert was going off and Andres knew it and was upset that he'd been discovered? Or maybe Arnaldo, as a sensitive guy is just noticing the contempt that Andres is oozing for Azul's crew. I expect that he'll be telling Ceci about it later.

Also, was I imagining things or is Silvanas mom running a phone sex business out of her apartment? One minute she's chatting about what she's wearing (a red silk baby doll) then she slams down the phone when Silvana arrives. Next she's telling her that she thought it would be a great idea to get multiple phone lines into the house, they had a great deal on them at the phone company....?!!
 

Great recap! The part where you mentioned Silvana's mom blabbing on about something meaningless was when she was talking with Silvana about having two phone lines in the house. She said that they were having a great deal, practically giving away a second line.

I thought the same thing about Silvana's mom. I totally think she's running a phone sex business. Remember, she returned to the D.F. to start her own business.

Who the bleep is Leonarda? It's driving me nuts!!!!! She obviously has some weird control over Mauricio.
 

Margaret and Linda, you were right about Gloria!
This show has taken a few turns that I haven't seen before, I like that.
And how about Arnaldo hunting down Andres in the kitchen so he could stare at him lustily some more? Andres looked mighty uncomfortable, perhaps he hasn't accepted his homosexuality yet.
 

Leonarda is Andres' aunt. But are they relatives of Mauricio or just servants with some kind of gothic bond to him (they know his secrets--he knows theirs?).
 

So, Andrés open mouth kissed his aunt's hand? That's a bit creepy!

This show makes me nuts!
 

I wonder if she is his aunt for real, or if he just said that. Also, maybe she is his aunt by marriage, so they still do have some freaky sexual relationship, one that is about to get more freaky by introducing Arnaldo and making it a threesome. Then, when they need to spice it up a bit, they use speakerphone to call Gloria for some phone sex.
 

I remember in La madrastra, the central villainess is motivated for her (taboo) love for her nephew and hatred for her nephew's wife. When this is revealed, it's the end of the line for her and everyone is horrified. In this, it seems like they are putting taboo relationship front and center. Kind of like how there have been gay characters in novelas but they are usually comedy roles--Luigi in Fea and Granillo in Duelo. I don't remember a dramatic gay character before.
 

When she was doing the phone sex, she hung up in the middle of the call when Silvana walked in. Isn't that a bad business model?
 

The openning credits with the dead
wife showing up. Is so damn scary to me. Along with all of the other
wired things, life that music, the
little girl Katy and the creepy maid and butler are they dead(like in the six sence?).
Please, the actor that is playing
Azul father smoke to much. In mostly every scene there is a cigarette hanging from his lips.
That can not be good for him.
 

Azul's dad is just not a very sympathetic character at all, smoking or not. He treats Inez like crap, flirts openly in front of her with other women. Treats his gay son badly (not for any moral reason but just because he thinks gays are "pathetic.") Not a nice man. It will be interesting to see Mauricio put the smackdown on him when he needs results in the lab for whatever deal he's doing.
 

So, what exactly does Mauricio do? What is this business he's got going?

Also, given that Emilia was Azul's thesis advisor, I'd say it's safe to say that Azul did her graduate work in some sort of counseling. Maybe she could apply some of what she's learned to her own screwed up personal life. She certainly doesn't react appropriately to a lot!
 

I don't have any idea what Mauricio does, but it involves chemicals or drugs or something. As far as I can tell, though, he has no sales, no products, nothing at all except for one scientist that he fired and Azul's Dad that he just hired, who doesn't really do anything but sit around, discuss personal issues with Azul, and smoke. Azul is the head of HR, even though her father is about the only employee, and her decisions revolve mostly around coffee.
 

Well so far the employees of Mauricio inc. are

1. Mauricio
2. Andres
3. Leonarda
4. Caty's Nanny (who is going to get fired as soon as she learns something interesting about the accident)
5. Azul
6. Azul's dad
7-9. Thugs who beat up and kill people for Mauricio

So Diego would be employee #10

Did I forget anybody?
 

I originally thought Mo had a factory or something, but it seems that all the worker are at his giant hacienda hotel. Weird.
