EPISODE - Oct. 18, 2007:

* Don Roberto and Alonso in a heated discussion about the fight between Gavi and the "Witches of Montalveno". Don Roberto wants an end to the ban of the witches to the events; Alonso agrees and suggests Gavi take his place with the public relations projects. Don Robert agrees. Don Roberto tells Alonso to be ready to attend the meeting tonight for work. Alonso stutters and tries to get out of it - Don Roberto won't let him.

* "The Witches" meet with Granny P at the house. Granny reminds them to stay away from Gavi, and don't cause any problems with Don Roberto or the ag. commission. Fedra is insulted by the lack of support from Granny - Minnie and Isa support Fedra - they leave. Dani enters and talks with Granny P. Granny is tired of fending off the witches from Gavi - she can't take anymore, especially with Don Amador's memorial ceremonies and the general assembly coming up.

* Gavi tells Clara over the phone about the invitations that Alonso has stacked on his desk. They will attend all of them, and she will be so busy, she won't have time to even think about Rod or his family. Just then, Alonso enters her office - Gavi hangs up with Clara and asks "why such a long face?" Alonso tells her about his meeting with Don Roberto, that he's been summoned to attend meetings around Japan and Asia for the commission. Gavi is a little sad but understanding. Alonso explains the plan for the office in his absence. Alonso is disappointed that he has to cancel their plans for tonight.

* At the hacienda, James works on computer in the living room. Pancho and Sofia enter - Pancho is trying to convince Sofia to go to the Fair with him tonight. He really plays up how much fun it will be and what will be there. Sofia reluctantly agrees to go. Pancho goes upstairs to use the jacuzzi. Sofia stays downstairs to talk with James. James wonders if they've patched up their marriage. Sofia says ignore what you've just heard - nothing has changed, they are as far apart as ever. Sofia and James discuss Sofia's continuing suspicions of Isa and Pancho. Sofia wishes Rod would return soon so she won't have to confront this deception alone.

* Aaron comes home to the condo and kisses his wife, Minnie. They talk about his tequila project and he over-embellishes how wonderful his tequila venture is doing. She mentions Bruno. He grumbles and then changes the subject. Minnie tells him the latest about Gavi's ban on her, Fedra and Isa, and about Rod's trip. Aaron puts down Rod's business acumen. Aaron then mentions Isa being lonely without Rod around. Minnie tells him about their curious evening together, when the two men (Eugenio and Alfredo) flirted with Isa. Aaron becomes jealous over the thought that Minnie was flirting with another man. Minnie calms him down and says she left the table and Isa got rid of them. Aaron and Minnie realize they really don't know Isa very well.

* Isa calls the hacienda - Sofia answers and tells her that she and Pancho have been together all day long, and now they are preparing to attend the Fair all night. Isa mentions Granny P. Sofia hangs up. Pancho asks what Isa wanted - Sofia says she doesn't know and doesn't really care.

* Gavi returns home and commiserates her disappointment with Clara about Rod and Alonso both on business trips away from Mexico. They go through what Gavi likes about Alonso, in comparison to Rod. Gavi wonders if she's in love (with Alonso).

* Rod sits nervously in a waiting room, thinks about the advice Erika gave him, and wonders how he can get past the absence of Gavi (his personal challenge).

* Gavi cries her question. Clara tries to advise and console her - take this month to figure out what she wants. Gavi cries and wonders if the psychiatrist will cure Rod so he forgets all about her. Clara tells her not to think like that, then (like every jewish mother I've ever known) she goes to make something to eat.

* Gaspar is about to leave on a business trip and goes to see his wife in the office - Pammie is still in bed. They discuss Pammie's need for vengeance against Aaron and the astuteness of Aaron to commit fraud and hide it so well. Gaspar says he will be diligent in investigating for proof of the fraud and crimes, especially surrounding Artemio's death. Just then Pammie enters, Gaspar has to explain to her about the questions that surrounded Artemio's death. She prompts her dad to do whatever he has to do to get the proof needed to hurt Aaron badly. She won't have any peace until then.

Aaron is frustrated and sits at his desk. Bruno comes around and asks how much did he lose. Aaron tells him. Bruno hopes he isn't using corporation money for his little "game". Aaron is confident he can cover all his debts and repay the loan to the corporation. Bruno reminds Aaron about the important conference coming up, and then asks about Rod's return.

He shows them the artist drawings for the bottles.

* Isa and Pancho have their secret phone conversation. She tells him to call her immediately when he arrives in Mexico City. He agrees with pleasure. He then asks her for a huge favor - for some money. She asks what for? He tells her his sob story of his credit cards and the list of creditors. She asks how much does he need? We don't hear the amount but from the bugged out eyeballs on Isa, we can only imagine the number of zeros on the amount. She tells him she will have to talk with her banker to see what she can do. He apologizes for making such a large request and promises that as soon as his business is successful, he will pay her back in full. "I'm sure you will," says Isa.

* Larry the snake meets with Aaron the skunk to show off the latest figures about their investments. Aaron is very pleased with the results and tells Larry to keep up the great work. Larry leaves just as Rod walks down the hallway towards them. Rod stop to talk with Aaron. Rod goes off to his office - Aaron enters his office to return to work on his 'futures trading'.

* Rod enters his office with Margarita following him inside. He tells her about his successful business trip and shows her the award he received in Brussels. She asks where he will display it. He wants to give it to someone very special. She smiles, thinks it is for Gavi. He plays along with the assumption. As Margarita is about to leave to wrap up the award, Rod asks why there are no phone calls from the ag. commission. Margarita says because there are none. Margarita leaves. Rod is impactado.

* In a meeting with department advisers, Gavi isn't paying attention to what they are saying. They ask for her signature on a document so they can get started with construction. She snaps back to reality and asks about invitations. The men ask her about the points they just went over. She apologizes for not paying attention - she has a lot on her mind today and asks to reschedule for tomorrow. They leave. Gavi calls to Nancy to make a phone call. Nancy calls Margarita, who informs her that Rod was at the office and then left for the day - Nancy relays the information to Gavi. Gavi looks disappointed.

* Rod makes a surprise visit to Dr Erika's office. He puts the gift box on the desk and enters to start his impromptu psychiatrist session with Dr. Erika. She's impactado and smiling. Rod tells her that he was so tempted to call Gavi -- BUT HE DIDN'T! He didn't call because he wanted to see her (Erika)!

* Gavi tells Clara her disappointment because Rod returned but didn't call her. Clara tries to cheer Gavi up, but Gavi is too disgusted and hurt. Clara asks about Alonso. Gavi says he told Nancy he returns tomorrow morning. Clara tells Gavi to be prepared with an answer for Alonso.

* Rod gets all excited talking to Erika about his successful business trip through Europe and the U.S. He is so excited that his father's dream has really come true. He is equally excited because before his life seemed to revolved around Ricardo, Isa and Gavi and now with his venture becoming so successful, he finally has something all for himself. Erika asks him about Gavi and he tells Erika he came to this conclusion after thinking about something she told him before he left - he is doing this for himself only. Then he pauses and starts to think and wonder how Gavi is doing.

DA IS IN ITS ULTIMAS SEMANAS!!!!
