Destilando Amor - Aug. 2, 2007 more than chocolates and silver heart earrings
EPISODE - August. 2, 2007:
* Frankie gives Steve the engagement ring back in condo hallway. Frankie explains his plan to now mooch off Sofia and the Montalvos.
* TWB (Isa) watches the news reports about the agave fields. Rod calls from the bar. Isa is sarcastic and irritated by Rod's absence. Rod says he will be home soon, he just needs to say good-bye to an old friend. They hang up. Rod orders a double shot of tequila.
* SWB in kitchen putting seductive images in Ofelia's head about Roman's chocolate and earrings gifts. Ofelia is insulted by the images and leaves. Roman enters by the other door. He hands the bag of chocolates and earrings to SWB. Ofelia catches them as SWB happily rips open the bag and shows off the contents. Ofelia accuses Roman of cheating on her, and starts swatting at him with the broomstick. Roman, in his own defense, explains that the gifts are from Carmelo for SWB. Ofelia doesn't believe him. He leaves. SWB admires the earrings and notes that they are exactly like Ofelia's. Ofelie is impactado. (Ed. note: and I'm ROFLOL for the entire scene.)
* Gavi and Clara in restaurant, rehashing how Rod and Clara got all the stuff back. Gavi comes to understand and live with Rod's efforts on their behalf. She's still hurt by what the Montalvo family did to her.
* Rod toast Gavi with his shots of tequila.
* Carmelo comes to the hacienda. SWB greets him in front entryway. Ofelia asks him to explain about the gifts. He tells her his side of the story and what Roman told him about the misunderstanding. She's mortified and runs to find Roman. Alone, Carmelo asks SWB about the gifts. She starts to flirt with him and thought-bubbles about having a laugh at Carmelo's expense.
* In kitchen, Ofelia has to grovel and apologize to Roman for not believing him. He accepts and they hug.
*TWO MONTHS LATER:
Gavi and Clara eat at their table back at their apartment. Clara is happy for all the blessing from the virgencita. Gavi is excited for her work and the project that she working on. Gavi gathers up her papers. Clara gives her a blessings. Gavi leaves for work. Clara notes to herself that in two months Gavi hasn't mentioned Rod at all, wonders if she's forgotten all about him.
* Rod talks on phone from his bedroom about the agave field inspections with Roman at hacienda. Rod wants to be present. Rod and Isa, now 4 months and showing, talk about his trip to hacienda for business and Sofia's wedding there. Isa is irritated and worried. Rod says don't be, he's been at her side for two months now. He gives her and the baby a kiss and leaves. She stews in her worries and fears about Gavi appearing at the hacienda while Rod's there.
* Dmitri and Gavi discuss the upcoming presentations and projects for their department. Gavi explains that she has the presentation all ready to present to Roberto and the board, and has included his ideas and research. Before she leaves, Dmitri gives her a compliment and praise for her work efforts. He asks her about her outside interests. She says that likes to sing. He invites her to sing at the office. She says she prefers not to, she learned her lesson and will keep her mouth shut at the office from now on.
* Frankie and Steve are working out at the gym. They discuss his wedding plans with Sofia and what Frankie is planning for his parent's appearance.
* Sofia, Dani and Granny are at breakfast at the Mexico City mansion. Sofia is excitedly telling them about Frankie's parents' offer while they are in Japan. Granny is upset and disappointed that Sofia will be so far away. Sofia consoles her. Dani thought bubbles her growing suspicions about Frankie.
* In Miami mansion, Aaron is on the phone with Larry the snake - Aaron is growing very irritated and frustrated with Larry's inability to get his shipments made. Larry explains that Rod is every more prudent and vigilent with corporation business papers these days; he can't do anything as easily as before. Aaron reminds Larry of all the millions of dollars he's paid him already. Larry continues to explain his predicament being caught between Rod and Aaron's father, Bruno. Aaron hangs up still frustrated. Pam enters in her bathrobe and asks "Bichie" what's wrong. Aaron says business is none of her concern. He reminds her to get dressed they have to meet his mom soon at the airport. Their wedding is in 13 days. She's excited. She goes to get her things from the drawer. Aaron sits on sofa and ponders where Minnie has been the past 2 months (no word/no divorce).
* Patricio escorts Minnie back to penthouse. She thanks him for his help and friendship. They discuss her visit with her great-aunt; Sofia's wedding at the hacienda; Aaron and Pam's wedding in Miami. With mention of Aaron, Minnie gets a bad taste in her mouth and spews out her opinions of that union not working out. Aaron is a macho ego butt. Patricio drops the subject and tells Minnie if she needs anything just call. He leaves. Minnie sits and is confused.
* Bruno visits Rod at the office. Rod tells him about hacienda and inspections but he's not too worried, their fields are in the best shape. Bruno is upset by Aaron's liquidation from the company. Rod has a flashback to his conversation with Aaron about this subject. Rod briefly explains (without detail) the resolution to Bruno. They discuss Rod's trip to hacienda and Sofia's wedding. While Rod's gone, he asks Bruno to take his place at the company. Bruno is so excited and delighted and accepts the invitation. They laugh and Rod reminds Bruno not to overdo it - to listen to his doctor, Fedra and Aaron. Bruno isn't worried about Fedra and Aaron, they're too busy with Aaron's wedding plans to Pam. Rod and Bruno discuss Aaron's wedding, and that no one from Montalvo family will be attending. Rod won't attend - he has no ties to Aaron anymore, it's like he lost his brother.
* Dmitri introduces Gavi and her presentation to the Roberto and the board. They listen and ask questions to Dmitri and Gavi and look at the color handouts. Roberto is very impressed and approves of the presentation. Roberto compliments Gavi - Gavi and board members leave. Roberto and Dmitri discuss Gavi's work at the department - Dmitri is very impressed. Roberto tells him about Gavi's background as an agave fieldworker and that makes her the perfect person to work with the other fieldworkers on this project.
* Rod meets with Sofia and Frankie at Granny's mansion. They discuss the wedding plans and Frankie's job in Japan. Rod leaves to find Dani. Sofia shows Frankie the full-page color ad about Aaron and Pam's wedding in the CARAS magazine. She's a little jealous of her cousin. Frankie says don't worry about it, their announcement will be even better and in Japanese. Sofia gives him a sad puppy dog look about leaving her family. He caves in and says he will cancel the Japan job and look for possible work offers in Mexico.
* Roberto and Dmitri tell Gavi that she will go on the trip with Dmitri to talk with the fieldworkers and hacienda owners. Gavi is surprised. Dmitri says the flight leaves later today for Guadalajara. Gavi is enchanted to return to the fields, she has so many happy memories of herself and her mama Clara there.
* Rod talks with Dani and remembers Gavi and tells his little sister about Gavi's life and work now. He has to resist the urge to call her on the phone. He misses her so much. Dani gives him a hug.
* Gavi packs and explains to Clara about her trip to the agave fields. They are happy; Clara mentions Rod. Gavi blows it off and says that he and Bruno are in charge of Montalvo Corp. now. Clara imagines the fields of agave again. Gave asks about her cassette tape that she made at the cantina for Rodrigo. Clara hasn't seen it, maybe it got tossed in the trash. Gavi says to continue to look for it. Gavi closes her suitcase and is ready to go. Clara tells her to give her old friends greetings from Clara. Gavi promises. Clara gives Gavi one final spin around before blessing her. Clara cries, she wants to go too. Gavi consoles her, explains that this is for her work. Clara continues to cry. Gavi promises when she arrives in Tequila, she'll send for Clara to join her. Clara smiles and is excited by the idea. As Gavi is about to go, Clara cries. Gavi consoles Clara. Gavi leaves. Clara mumbles to herself.
* In Miami, Aaron has a long distance phone conversation with Patricio in Mexico. Aaron is agitated and angry that no one from the family will attend his wedding. Patricio politely explains that Sofia's wedding is being held at the hacienda. Aaron is welcome to come but alone. Aaron goes ballistic that he can't bring Pam with him. Aaron refuses to attend Sofia's wedding - Patricio says Granny will be so disappointed but he will pass along the message anyway. Aaron asks about Minnie. Patricio vaguely briefly explains about Minnie's return to Mexico. Aaron yells and screams that he needs to talk with her ASAP. Aaron hangs up to take a phone call on another phone. Aaron declines the interview and hangs up the other phone. He grumbles to himself about Minnie in a nativity festival ball.
* Johnny sits with Pam and Fedra and they plan the wedding. Pam explains her idea for putting acrylic over the pool for the dance floor - Fedra says to add candle lights floating on the water underneath. Pam wants lots and lots of flowers. Aaron comes in and asks Pam about the music playing. Pam answers. Aaron shouts and storms out to turn off that noise. Pam tells Fedra about Aaron's lousy mood lately, especially in regards to Mexico. She asks Fedra to talk to him. Johnny backs up Pam. Fedra leaves as Aaron shouts at the servant to turn off the noise and give him some whiskey. Pam tells Johnny she hopes Fedra can get through to Aaron and calm him down.
* In garden, Fedra stops Aaron. They have a shouting match. Aaron vents his frustrations and anger with all the bad news he's been receiving. Fedra tells him that's life and to calm down and help plan his wedding with Pam, or is it about Minnie again. Aaron paces and explains that it's more than just Minnie. It's that his family, especially his own father, won't be attending his wedding. He won't be attending Sofia's wedding for this reason as well as that he would have to go alone without Pam. Fedra is impactado. Aaron continues that he doesn't really care about Minnie or what she's doing now. He also isn't interested in all the bells and details for the wedding - he's only interested in marrying Pam and having a son. Pam comes outside to see what's happening. Aaron leaves. Fedra explains Aaron's mood is about his family. Pam asks about Minnie - Fedra says there's been no word or news about her in months. Pam's worried.
* Minnie sits in her bedroom and reads the ad announcing Aaron and Pam's wedding. She rips it out of the magazine and crumples it in her hands.
* James and Acacia walk back to the hacienda house all lovey-dovey like. Her mood changes as they see the police truck waiting outside the front gate. Police chief and his assistant are inquirying about Meliton - it's been several months and no word from him at all. James and Acacia tell story about Meliton taking his things and quietly leaving and going to the beach to live in peace. The police officers accept the story and leave. Acacia is nervous.
* Back at the ranch, Rod and Roman are in the office discussing inspections and the agave fieldworkers. (Ed. note: Rod is in his black jeans and I must say, "NICE BUTT!") Roman tells Rod about Hilario's new work and life in the city. As Rod talks, Roman thought-bubbles how will he ever explain that Hilario left the hacienda because he's in love with Isa. Rod asks Roman to have Ofelia bring him a cup of coffee. Roman tells Rod welcome back to the hacienda Montalve~a. Rod says thanks as he looks out his office window at the fields below. Rod mutters to himself, "Welcome back, to my home, my refuge, all this reminds me of you, Gaviota."
* Frankie gives Steve the engagement ring back in condo hallway. Frankie explains his plan to now mooch off Sofia and the Montalvos.
* TWB (Isa) watches the news reports about the agave fields. Rod calls from the bar. Isa is sarcastic and irritated by Rod's absence. Rod says he will be home soon, he just needs to say good-bye to an old friend. They hang up. Rod orders a double shot of tequila.

Thanks for the speedy recap! That ep had a lot of information. BTW, I don't think Clarita said she was dying--she said WHEN she dies she wants the earth of the hacienda to cover her. And then she adds--because of you, Don Amador. I'm glad Rod is back at the hacienda and the story is moving along. Rod, Clarita and Gavi are more sympathetic and engaging than they've been in a while. Can't say the same for the other characters.
Clarita isn't dying. She states that When she dies, she wants the earth of la hacienda and its countryside to cover her because she wants to be near Don Amador.
On a side note, I cannot wait for the roof to fall down on Isa. It has to right? Who will reveal her infidelities and bastard child? Aaron, Hilario, Francisco????? The suspense is killing me.

Hello, I have never posted a comment before. Actually, I have never been hooked on a Mexican telenovela before! But I began to watch Destilando Amor after breaking my ankle and being in a cast for a few weeks. I enjoy the show, the over-the-top drama and the unbelievably intertwined relationships immensely, and I also enjoy the opportunity to review my Spanish. The 8/2 show was the first I've missed in about a month. What about the 8/1 show? Thank you for the recaps.
I was surprised to read a few days ago that there may be two more months or so left to be seen. I am a teacher and will be back in the saddle by the end of August, and I was hoping that the series would end before I get really busy with preparation and grading again. Does anyone know when this telenovela will finish?
Muchas gracias,
Magarita Maria, la peliroja

Hi peliroja--i am a teacher too, but I will stay with this one papers be damned. Other members have established that we are ten weeks behind Mexico, and they are supposed to finish up by September 3rd. Check in with esmas.com if you want to see where this story is going, don't go there if you are spoiler averse.
In novela world, the papa of Issy's bebe is probably a long time off from being discovered..We have months to go,please remember..Do not under estimate Dani & Elvis,as Dani along Videgaray(not sure if that's the spelling of his name) uncovered the five mil pesos(pesos or dollars don't remember) Gavi was supposed to have that she didn't have,upon being tossed to the curb by Aaron. The character of Dani is on a mission,as I've said previously. No benefit to Frankie,the giglo to know,as I think he already knows or suspects..because he can't even keep up his soon to be wife,Sofia..No benefit to Aaron(would be a Montalvo heir,however--not his-- but could be wrong),unless he wants to be castrated by Minnie. Hilario? No benefit to him other than he loves Isadora..Probably, the only man that does..Only Issy knows..She could be embarazada by the process of osmosis before this show ends..It's so screwed up,just the way we like it..
Muchissimas gracias.
I do want to wait for the story to unfold. I did find a youtube site that has parts of both earlier and later chapters, so I did see a few scenes with Isa feeding a baby! Yuuch, when will the truth come out about the child's father??
Also, I went to the Caray homepage and found the 8/1 recap. Oh so much fun, I'll be sipping a margarita tonight while watching.

J.R.! Thanks for the recap! Nice to see you back with us again.
==
peliroja: I agree with Destilando Cafe that you should continue watching, even if you have to record the episodes and have a marathon on the weekends! We are on esmas.com's May 24th Mexican episode equivalent. It sometimes includes scenes that would be part of the next day's episode and is only a bare outline.

J.R. - thanks for the timelime in the recap. I tuned in late to the show and missed a lot.
What did Frankie's "parents" supposedly offer?
LOL at Aaron threatening to run off anyone who plays tropical music again. What a drip!
Poor Pam will be living in un infierno with Aaron. She's not as tough as Minerva.
The jimadores hardly looked up when Gavi took off her shades and announce who she was (in preview).
Lead balloon time! LOL. Maybe she'll start singing and they'll gather 'round and cheer her.
I am looking forward to the Rod and Gavi reunion in the agave fields.

anya: I think J.R. meant the company's (not "parents') offer being extended this past two months.
His "parents" are going to be a couple of actors he hired who look enough like him to play the part and will sit up in the first row with silly fool Pilar.

Thanks for the recap!
I think Frankie mentioned that he hired somebody to play roles of his parents during the wedding and hi said to Doña Pillar that his parents are somewhere on a trip and only could make back right before the wedding. What a slime bag!
Dani was really suspicious when Frankie was talking, may be now, after all of the Gravi's' investigations are completed, she can dig something about Frankie.

Ay, that Aaron is hell on the phones. Always throwing them down on the floor, into the pool, or smashing them into the table, etc. There's probably a servant who's only job is cleaning up and replacing the broken phones. Or maybe the bella Pamela does that in between poses.
When Aaron (Sergio?) was in La Esposa Virgen, didn't he have an evil mother there? You can tell that his punishment is coming.
Sometimes the main story line gets a little dull and repetitive, but this TN is so rich in minor characters. There's usually some litte entertaining bit each episode.
I can hardly wait to see Frankie's fake parental units, hoping they mess up in some way and betray him.

Sometimes the main story line gets a little dull and repetitive, but this TN is so rich in minor characters. There's usually some litte entertaining bit each episode.

So there's phone abuse in this one too? I haven't seen it yet - Aaron's going to join Steve McGarrett and Marcia Villaroel in my Phone Abuse Hall of Fame.
Hmm. Those words look familiar. I think I've posted this before. I think I need a nap.

I always was wondering how many phones a month Aaron goes thru: 5-10? And I think that even in hotels he always smashes them.

A reminder to limit your remarks to opinions and not disclosures of what you see or hear outside of the novela. For ex. we all know that Isa is pregnant, but we didn't know the outcome of the pregnancy. She could have miscarried or had an abortion. So, the comment about seeing her feeding a baby counts as a spoiler. I cheated once on a different novela and read ahead. Then I lost interest. I don't want that to happen to me here. This isn't a criticism, it's just a reminder. My roommate suggested that pehaps someone who knows what's going to happen in the future could provide their e-mail address so the curious ones like herself could ask questions. My roomy tried to read the spanish notes but can't make out enough to put together what's happening.

After somebody made a comment about youtube, I went on there and found that a user named "fandetodos" is posting fairly long excerpts as soon as they are shown in Mexico. So if you go on esmas.com, read the bare-bones summary and then go find that ep on youtube, you have a really good idea of what's coming down the road. Doesn't diminish my interest, because I'm looking for linguistic functions, cultural clues and those great travelogues. (Can't afford to go to Mexico right now sigh)
well, two months away from this novela and only two errors - that's pretty good for me. thanks for the correction notations.
it's so good to be back.

Can someone explain why almost "always" the first part of the recpaps cannot be read because they are under other words??

Anonymous 9:14 - I've never seen the thing you describe except on the comments page. And that only happens in certain browsers. I'm guessing that you're getting that effect because of the browser you're using, too.
As for deleting posts - as far as I know, the only people who can delete their own posts are people who are members of this blog (recappers) who were logged in when they made their comments.

Julie: Thanks for the heads up. I have always been logged in, so I didn't realize that. Without Melinama, we are going to have to hope maybe J.R. can as the one who wrote the recap or just have Melinama go back in when she comes back i guess.
J.R.^^^Thanks for the recap. Black jeans...nice butt...indeed.

I don't understand what Aaron's liquidation from Montalvo's means. Does mean thtat he is not still part of the corporativo or was this some money that he owed the corporativo? Thanks so much for the recaps. My Spanish is not very good and I frequently miss something important or get something confused.

I still haven't seen this episode yet, so I'm as baffled by this "liquidation" (which usually means either a cashing-out or a severance package) as you are. Maybe it's just a reference to his seeming indifference and withdrawal from daily operations? Or perhaps it has something to do with the big debt he owes to the company?
Anon 9:14 Fri, I have the same problem that you described. It happens to whoever makes the first comment about the recap. About 5 lines of their comment is mixed in with the date, the heading & title of the recap. The other day I discovered that I can override this by leaving a few blank lines in the box where you write your comment. Only the person who makes the first comment needs to do it. I don't think it has anything to do with your browser. I think it's because some of us click on the link that follows the recap and it brings us to a page that's only for the present days comments. This probably will sound confusing to those of you who don't have the problem. But to others it should be clear and hopefully save you time from trouble shooting in areas that has nothing to do with the problem.

I know this is a spoil free blog. But it doesn't ruin anything for me if I know ahead of time the outcome of some of the really boring or annoying happenings. So without revealing any thing about the Novel itself, I would appreciate if someone would be more specific about where to find the advanced chapters on esmas.com and youtube.com (On youtube all of the videos I were about things that's already happened). What chapter are we on? Are any of these summaries in English? I looked on esmas.com but couldn't find any recaps by a person named Fandetodas. Also, the stars are doing interviews about themselves and their roles

Thanks so much Anon 11:32 am. I have often wondered why I have all that overlap on my screen.
Thanks so much for the recap JR and welcome back.

For those who want to read ahead, the summaries on esmas.com are entirely in Spanish. Perhaps another blog is translating them, but they are not hard--only cryptic sometimes. On youtube, search on "Destilando Amor" and be sure you click on "most recent" for the episodes you want to see. When I do that, I see excerpts from yesterday's Mexico broadcast, posted by someone named "fandetodos". However, since this is probably illegal, it may not be reliable and all of these could be removed at any time. If you've read or seen Cafe con Aroma de Mujer or the other version, Cuando Seas Mia, as some on this blog have, you know where the story is going. This does not diminish my enjoyment at all--what's more fun, looking at the map, or actually taking the journey? Besides you really have to watch and listen to learn nifty new words like "fitosanitarios" : 0
Thanks destilando cafe for the instructions. I'm reading this at work but will give it a try later this evening. I need some relief from Rod and Gavi's craziness. They are both stressing me out to the point that it's no fun cheering for them when they can't seem to make any progress on their own. Gavi's mood swings makes me think she's bipolar. She's always either depressed & tearful or on a high. For example, when she talks her entire head is moving a mile a minute. If someone knocks on the door of her 1 room apt, she takes off for the door like a bat out of hell. She can rapid fire 3 kisses to Claritas forehead faster than anyone else could kiss once. I know I sound awful but I'm pretty annoyed with her right now.

I know what you mean, Anon. It might help to remember that Gavi, the character, is responding to real changes in her environment, not changing serotonin levels in her head. After all, she and Clarita were one step away from homelessness, and she is struggling to stay on that ladder to success. Angelica Rivera, the actress, may be responding to widespread criticism of her age for that part, and is overdoing the youthful vivacity.
