Caray, Caray!

Diego and Gloria continue talking about Silvana. Gloria says that Silvana thinks she is bad. She wants Diego to help get Silvana to forgive her for the past. Gloria wants to help her daughter, but she is not allowed to do anything. Good guy Diego agrees to try to help.
Gloria says that is she had been there when Nico died, things might have gone better. Diego says he wouldn't be so sure. Yes, says Gloria--I am her mother! I never disappeared, am not traveling now, I am forming a small business. She says that she always lived by the sound of her voice--is she a singer? She needs an opportunity. She has to repay the debt to her daughter. This time she's not leaving.

Mo and Azul continue their conversation. She looks like a sourpuss. I'm sorry but my notes are garbled here. But they seem to end with some discussion of being a couple and inviting friends over like everyone else.

Lidia and Piero continue their spat. It seems to end with his getting his way.

Now we are back to touring the lab with Tia Ines, who has never visited Alfredo in the lab. He shows her the centrifuge, which separates the "muestras," or samples. (I guess blood samples.)

He is glad to see her--it's been so many days she was not at his house. He reminds her that he still has the key. She needs him to play well. They kiss.

At home, pop is cleaning the oven! and Clemencia is preparing to go out. She is going to some volunteer work at the hospital. Can he drive her? Then he says that some guy called while she was taking a bath. Some guy from the hospital named Demetrio. It turns out he is a paramedic. What did he want. Something about stopping medication. Oh, good, she says. It must have to do with our work for poor people. (Something tells me this is going to be about a mistake in Clemencia's treatment/test results, and she is really going to be sick again.)

She then tells hubby that their children need them. She wants to talk to him later that night.

Tia Ines and GCSSD are reviewing the recent gulf in their relationship. He says he came over last night and found Arnaldo on her sofa. He doesn't want others entering into what is theirs. (Folks, this is just as creepy as when he said their relationship was perverted. He seems to be jealous of his girlfriend's nephew. Ugh.)
He remarks on the age difference. Ines says that Arnaldo is her nephew for pete's sake. Doesn't matter--he's still a man. Ines's response to this insanity is to placate the purveyor: You are my life, Alfredo--the only one. Are you sure? They kiss. Yuck, yuck and double yuck. We still don't know if she had something going with some other musician.

Diego, Manuel and Clemencia are now discussing Silvana. They want to help, but they don't want a hotel. They're not sure it's right to take her in again.
They point out to him that they are just worried.

Azule and Emilia are now talking about Azul's degree studies at the University. Isn't it a coincidence that her adviser is Emilia? She is saying how she needs to go to work, so it looks like she is not going to finish. Mauricio needs her. Doesn't Emilia know that Mauricio is the bad guy who allegedly killed her patient's son? Or doesn't Emilia know that Azul's new jefe/boyfriend is Mauricio? Help me out, guys! Thanks! Azul leaves.

Meanwhile, Our Villain is buying an engagement ring for Azul. He wants to pick one that demonstrates everlasting love. He picks a nice sapphire and diamond number. Good choice, the salesman tells him. Don't salesmen always say that?

Diego is in the same university building. He asks Silvana to come back to his house. She doesn't want to go. She wants to take charge of her own life.

Now he goes out, and coincidentally, Azul is outside. This is a scene that we have been seeing in the opening credits. He runs after her. What are you doing here? I am visiting a friend who is a patient. She is visiting a friend too.
He tells her she looks beautiful. She says he looks good too. But she doesn't want him to start anything. He is frustrated--she never let him explain. She asks why he wants to act crazy. He tells her he loves her so much--she makes him crazy. I think about you all the time. She says that she cannot/does not etc. She calls him cursi (pretentious or affected?). He asks what she is afraid of. She doesn't want him to call her love. She says she fells that between them is nothing but his obsession with her. (I agree--so far their relationship sprung from their locking eyes through the glass of the Men's Wearhouse, then winding red fabric, a dance, a sewing incident, and some kisses.) He denies it--she is the love of his life. She runs to her car.

Moppet alert! Mauricio asks Caty if she wants to be Azul's daughter. Will she come there and live with them? Caty wants to know if Mo forgot mom. He assures her that no, mom will always be in their hearts.

Silvana is talking to Emilia. She likes Diego, and he has space for her, but she does not want to be a burden to him.

A great ending scene: Azul tries to drive away, and Diego tries to throw himself in front of her car. She gets a flat tire. He says, "Thank you god, I owe you one."
