Juan Q 8/7 - Juan flashes, Kike says Yadi likes flashy, and CL wishes Moni's idea is just a flash in the pan

And, cachi cachi bon bon. Ana makes excited eyes after Juan rips off his towel and moves to her canvas where it appears that she nervously tries to figure out where to start her masterpiece.

Enrique tells Nid they should go to the studio to chat because the walls have ears. Yadi pops out and wonders where this is going. Kike tells Nid that no one wants to marry someone as poorly decorated as their napkins, he says he’s as frozen as a penguin! Nid tells him not to exaggerate. He says look it’s the truth, that she likes even the floor to shine! He says something about a diamond and that Yadi says if you want to shine well you have to polish up. Nid says, yes, that’s our family, we love the finer things. HA! But she says you have the Consentida. He says it’s worth a little, but what he really wants to do is sell it and buy a nice truck to start in the transporte business and follow Samuel’s footsteps. He says he’d love to give her the life she wants like Fer offers her. He also wants to even educate himself so he’s not such a blockhead.

In the apartment of sin CL is telling Paula how much he loves her. She says she has to go to her Mom and he wants to come so they all can have dinner. They tell each other they don’t want this to end. She tells him how much she needs this to be a sure thing and that depends on him. He promises to come through. They start at it again back to the sheets.

Nid is moved by Enrique’s efforts to win her daughter. She says he has her support, and what he does speaks volumes about him. He says when he comes back with a fat wallet, a new love for him will be born.

During the painting Juan says he’s glad at least with his whole team out in the air that he’s not getting libidinous thoughts. He says the first bitter taste is over and now it’s going down more smoothly for him, he’s even getting bored and getting cramps and says he needs to go pipi. Ana lets him free. The drawing is conveniently well shaded in “that area.”

At dinner the family Cachon is discussing whether or not Juan is or isn’t and sharing their reasons why they think so with each other.

Paula comes home after her tryst Cl wants to go in but she thinks not, and when she enters, she sees Juan as he comes out of the restroom in his towel. He doesn’t first see her. He’s saying how he feels like a fish in water now and she can paint him all she wants and he throws off the towel in front of Paula. She asks her Mom what’s going on here. This scene looked cut funny to me as he must have grabbed it back on again really quickly. Very anti-climactic. Paula tells him he has a nice body and he smiles and goes up to change. While he’s changing he tells himself that he left her in cramps no doubt and he noticed she came alone and that reacted positively and that she’ll never look at him with the same eyes again.

Ana says she only looked at his beautiful body like an Artist and not with any lust. Paula asks how she could look at such a great body without any lust at all. She asks Juan if they owe him anything for his modeling services he says no, and they say well at least dinner, and he says ok. Paula gives him the address where he should pick her up tomorrow. She says Cl helped her find the apt. Juan is impactado.


CL comes home and asks how the prettiest Mom is doing to which she asks if he brought her pharmacy item. In his post love session bliss he forgot his pregnant wife’s medicine. Shame Shame. They continue discussions about his bad head for being a future dad. Cl asks her if she found someone to help her. Yes I did find someone, Ana Davila the Mom of your vice president. CL is impactado. She says she’s going to be a good worker and she was highly recommended. CL wants to know by whom. She stalls. CL questions her about why she contracted Ana. She says that even he told her that she practically managed Samuel’s whole business. He wants to know who recommended her. Ah hah, it was IVONNE!! Moni says don’t say anything because I called her and asked for her help.


Juan can’t stand when the conversation shifts to CL. He gets up to leave. Paula continues telling her mom about the new living arrangement and how wonderful CL is. Mom goes through the motions of agreeing, but never really believes that all these things including the divorce are really going to happen. Finally Ana tells her that she might be getting some work. Paula is excited and Ana tells her she will go to speak with them day after tomorrow.

Cl is awake turning and Moni wonders why if it has to do with Ana. He says no, but argues with her about being stupid to choose her just because of Ivonne’s recommendation.

Juan tells himself he’s still not sure about Paula and CL, and that the only way he’ll know for sure if he asks her again straight out.

Marely tells Juan she ran in to Pastor and that man is jealous and wants to know if there is something between us. He thinks he would love that, but she’s punished until further notice for hating him. He tells her he’s given him no reason to be jealous. She suggests he clear things up then because he seems to think that you are looking at him with eyes of love.

Moni wants to know how her office is coming along. She says she hopes it’s ok if she works here in the meantime. He says working here is great and you’ll get no complaint from me. She says good because Ana is coming tomorrow here. for an interview oh and lovey, why don’t you help me? He says no, and oh he has to go.

Juan shows up at the apt to collect Paula.

Nid and Yadi are chatting about her maybe going back to school but Yadi says you ask the same thing everyday and I answer the same everyday, so maybe she’s losing her memory. Yadi wants to know what Mom has cooking with Enrique. Mom says nothing

Juan is impactado when Paula answers in her bathrobe. She wants to know if he knows anything about plumbing. He says yes, and that soon he’ll have it fixed.Plomeria Como chirriones funciono esa chiva.

Nid spills the beans to Yadi about Enrique’s plan.

Juan is giving himself a peptalk. He wonders if maybe there was a reason she answered in her robe. He says that women love to send signals. He daydreams he is in a smoky bedroom with Paula making out. She wakes him up while he’s kissing the wrench instead. Juan creates a plumbing fountain when he tries to keep up with the charade that he knows what he’s doing. Water goes everywhere.

Nid continues -Don’t you see he thinks you hate him because he’s poor. Y-No I hate him because he’s low class and ugly. Nid asks as if she were the princess of Monaco. Yadi says I will never care for him, even if he becomes a millionaire!

CL marches into the business and commands Ivonne to his office to tell him why she recommended Ana.

Nidia wishes she ahd someone like that who would do anything for her. Yadi says she’s still in love with Fer but thinks he must be hiding something because no one changes so drastically in one day. She vows to find out why.

Juan is discussing with a real plumber and haggling over the price. He doesn’t want the plumber to take advantage of her but he appears to be severely undercutting the real price. He says he did the hard work already, but the plumber says yeah and with that you took out the water of the whole colonia. Paula gives him more than Juan says, she’s not in agreement with Juan.


Cl is back with Ivonne, threatening to let her go after she says she’s not doing anything, just helping his wife. She says she knows too many things so he won’t. He ends up telling he’s not sure what to do but Ana can’t work with Moni. He concocts a plan that she calls and telll Ana that someone else already got the job. Ivo says she can’t call because she didn’t call in the first place.
Juan and Paula are sriving and he thinks he wants to ask her his question, she says it’s ok, but he chickens out and asks her if she’s still mad about the plumbing. She says of course not.


Juan discusses with Fer about the apartment Paula is in now. He says she’s there because she’s renting. Fer laughs. He says fine I’ll be quiet. If you want to believe that’s the truth, fine, just believe it then. Juan thought bubbles that he should listen to this guy because he’s making sense, but he can’t bring himself to do it.

Merely goes into Paula’s office and tells her all the messages. Paula asks how Marely likes the work. She likes it. No prob with Pastor? She says no but rehashes the conversation with him about Juan. Paula wonders if there is more too. She thinks he’s interested in Marely. Marely says he can’t be interested in me because I’m almost sure that Juan is Gay.

Juan wants to clear up some things with Pastor. He tells him he’s causing serious problems. He doesn’t want to be rude but he needs him to listen. He starts yelling, and pastor yells back not for him to yell. Juan continues that things are making him uncomfortable. He says he likes being his friend and things can’t pass that line. Pastor wants him to be more concrete. He says I don’t want to be your, Pastor interrupts and says what makes you think I’m interested in you as a man.

Paula tells Marely that she really thinks Juan likes her, and that he isn’t really gay, but that he might be faking it to keep Pastor of his back. Paula says if he was gay, would he be with someone like Pastor anyway? She tells Marely no Juan likes you, he asked me to help you with getting the job. Paula asks her to tell the truth, does she like Juan?

Pastor tells him he’s wrong and that he’s just like the typical macho. He tells him he doesn’t have bad taste, look in the mirror at yourself, you have no class, no style, etc. Look at your awful hair. Juan says ok, we’ve cleared that up, so see ya. Pastor calls him back, and says not so fast, if you feel so uncomfortable here, then fine, as of today you are out of the office. See ya!

Ah Pastor!! He was great, I need to take some lessons from the way he handled Juan. He denied he was in love with Juan without even blinking and then fires him!!! que sinverguenza!! Oh well I guess Juan had it coming... we'll see what happens tonight it seems Paula will intervene, and Juan will keep his job. I guess it pays out to be BF with the boss’s amiguita.

The entire sequence from when Paula comes home and busts her mom and Juan was priceless. I had to play it back for my wife to translate for me. It seemed pretty clear that the actress that plays Paula's mother was not able to keep a straight face during the scene and was busting up. At the same time, it seemed so natural and unforced that I was really drawn into the novela at that point.

Now if we could only figure out a way for a contemporary of Ana's to paint Paula.....

Kris, what a terrific recap! Thanks!

CL gets more and more odious every day. OTOH, I agree that the scene with Paula busting her mother and Juan was just wonderful. I interpreted parts for my husband, who said it really didn't need too much interpretation.

;-)

I wouldn't want to be in Juan's boots with Pastor, especially if CL overrides Pastor. Ooh, I think Pastor can be really b****y.

Really terrific title, too!
