Juan Q 11-21-07 Nidia's truth is stranger than fiction and Juan takes up martyrdom

Recap more complete now, thanks for your patience. I'm out of town with no access to Univision, but thankfully access to the net. Caray Caray is my only novela source until December, thank heavens I'll be back in time to catch the pirates!!! Muchas Gracias a Maricruz who will be filling in for me next Wednesday the 28th so look for her fine work! Enjoy!!!

Happy Turkey Day! Wish I could stuff that Cesar Luis!!!!!!


Cl shows up with flowers and tells her the whole office is worried about her. Pau tells him to bug off she's fine with Ma and Juan. He finally leaves when Ana tells him she's in no condition to take visitors. Pau says she's fine and that guy won't hurt her any more then she hauls off and smacks the you know what out of the roses he gives her trashing the poor little innocent flowers. I never see what good that does. It's maybe a stress reliever, but I think she should do it to him, instead!!!

Moni is talking with Laura telling of her fear that CL's travel to Spain is just another trick, and if Pau falls for it that he'll change his mind. She says she is going to have to bring CL to the point of no return on all this, so he'll have to go.

Juan shows up at Casa Davila with food and according to Ana enough of it to fill all the pinatas for the next seven posadas and some ingredients to make an Achichipico breakfast delight .

Ana goes to the office and Juan asks how Pau's been feeling. Pau says better thanks to him. She asks how things are going at the office and he says the boss wanted to speak with him about her, and that he watch after her while he's gone to Spain, because if he can't make her happy then Juan should. She wonders what he's up to with this. Juan thinks he seemed sincere this time and that he had his heart in his hands. Pau says she doesn't now care about him, if he goes to Spain, Patagonia or the Belgian Congo, she's a different woman now. Juan doesn't buy that she's changed her feelings that fast. he thinks she's talking because she's resentful, she agrees but says she's tired of all this and she is going to take advantage of him being gone from this country. Juan thinks that this is about her happiness and she may be forgoing the opportunity to be with the man who really loves her, she should be sure that she's doing the right thing because he doesn't want to see her hurt anymore, and she wonders if CL sent Juan to convince her, he says it's his idea, and she thinks she's doing the right thing.

Alirio complains to Mar and Yadi that he works like a burro all day and comes home to find his wife gone without any idea where she is as if this is a hotel.

Juan and Pau play cards and he gets a flor corrida (flush all in one suit)She asks about how his school is going and he decides to be honest with her, that he was suspended for missing too many classes. She tells him that's really bad. He tells himself that he couldn't tell her that was in part because he was caring for her and doing things for her so he’ll just take this ribbing about missing school because he his happy that Pau has taken an interest in him and what is happening with him and her words are balm for his wounded and beat up breast.

Kike calls Angaritas office and finds out that he’s not there having left with a well perfumed, and made up woman. It dawns on him it’s Yadi’s Ma! Yadi is worried about what they are going to do about Alirio.


Juan is serving his achichipico rice, they ask what's in it, and he tells them vegetables, cactus, secret ingredients and meat of the chichicuilote (I think that is a some kind of a small sea bird - not a usual edible ingredient)


Alirio and everyone except Nidia and Juan are eating dinner and he is still complaining and wondering what the two girls have against him. Marely tells him Juan is with Pau not her Mom. Yadi tells him she's had it up to her neck with him he's a pain in the neck (higado).

Cl & Ivy lie on the floor in that love nest. Ivy tells Cl she knows CL doesn't love her, but she tolerates him and tells him she should go with him that she would make the best companion because she's not going to watch out for him like his other women. CL tells Ivy that she is right and would maybe make a better traveling companion. Ivy thinks they should go together.

Alirio is confiding in Marely he just doesn't know what to say or not to say to keep the relationship good with his wife. I almost feel sorry for him. He says he loves her so much and breathes for her and doesn't understand why she does this. Marely almost feels sorry for him to and she is weeping. She tells him that her Mom has her own way of caring about people and that she is sure he has a small corner in her heart.

Juan & Ana are doing dishes. Ana tells him to quit. she'll do so he can watch the movie with Pau and maybe she'll realize what a man who really cares about her is like. Best thing I've heard Ana say since she stuck it to her daughter before the suicide attempt.


Nid shows up with Ang and stops her some distance from her house because she doesn’t want anyone to see them arrive together. She said her kids and Alirio must be fuming by now. She said she had a great time, as did he and he wishes that she wouldn’t go in. She thanks him for the excellent time that they spent together and he was glad they got to reminisce about old times. Nidia comes in seductively to the bedroom and Alirio ignores her. She jokes he's punishing her with his whip of despise. She confesses that she was with an old love that she's found again and they were eating and toasting and she does ones of her famous breast rubs. Alirio tells her to stop being so funny and tell him the real truth about where she was. She says fine if you don't believe me there is nothing else to say.

Pau falls asleep watching the movie with Juan, he covers her and leaves. Juan thought bubbles that this was a perfect day but still something is bugging him and he thinks she has been completely honest with him and hasn't told him everything she feels. This is making more noise than a Manada de changas in his head, but he says he still has to look after her though because it's a question of ethics.

Ana leaves telling Pau not to go to work.

Nid asks the girls at breakfast the next day what's wrong, does she have Monkeys on her face? Marely still wants to know where she was. The two are upset that she left early without telling anyone where she went and came home so late. Nid says look if I want to disappear for a week or a month is of no concern to anybody. I can do what I want so leave me alone, because neither of you should care what happens to me.

At CL's place the doorbell rings and Cl thinks it's Fer, but it's actually Juan. Ivy goes to take a shower. Juan tells Cl that Pau really didn't have stomach problems etc., she tried to take her own life. CL and Ivonne listening from the bedroom are impactados.

Cl wants to know what he's talking about. Juan tells her that she did it for love of him. He tells CL that they love each other and everything is not lost. CL can't go to Spain and needs to give this one more chance. Ivonne is listening in and shaking her head, obviously angry because she doesn't want Pau to have another chance. CL is still in disbelief and wonders why Juan is saying this. He says it's because he loves her so much that she deserves to be happy even with CL. CL thanks Juan.

Yadi wakes up Kike and is upset that he isn't helping her out in this situation. He is upset that because of her he is without the beach, and the ocean etc. the least he can do on his honeymoon is be allowed to sleep. She doesn't relent.

Out front of CL, Fer is waiting for him and sees Juan coming out all upset. He says he's de-boned his fish. Fer is concerned. Juan says that from here on out the big boss will have his happiness. Juan says he left half his life upstairs.

Ivonne tells CL this is all a big trick and that he shouldn't fall for this charade. CL tells her that if she's says anything she is going to regret it. She on the other hand tells him he's very sexy when he makes those kinds of warnings. BLECH!!!!! He tells her to be careful because she knows better than anyone how he is when he loses control.

Moni tells Pastor that Ivonne has to go and there are no compromises so fire her. Pastor tries very hard to talk her out of it, but she will not budge, she wants her out and she's giving an order.


Juan prays to Santo Nino again and says he feels he understands now what sacrifice really means and he feels closer to the saint because of this because that's what he did, sacrifice for love of someone else. He feels like he did the right thing releasing the woman that he loves with all of his soul to be free to be with another. He begs for help standing this pain and suffering, though.

Pau grabs the teddy Juan gave her and hugs it.

Airio is telling Guti how upset he is about what is happening in his house. He tells of her dissappearance and swears to Guti he will figure out what his wife is up to and if she is seeing someone. He says Guti, huis wife, and the whole world will learn who is Alirio Perafan Rocha de Francisco.

Kike shows up at the market to see Anga. He is surprised to see him as he thought he was on his honeymoon and wonders what happened. Kike tells him well, my wife didn't enjoy the heat, and let's just drop that subject. Kike sneaks in how did it go at my wedding, and well, with Nidia? Anga gets upset and says his private life is something no one messes with, that he doesn't like nosy, gossipy people.

Nid is in her office with an old friend who wonders how Anga ended up at her wedding. Nid explains the circumstances and how small the world is.

CL asks Marely about Paula's health in a very strange manner. I can't figure out why she does this, but she calls Pau and tells her this. Pau is of course curious.

Ivonne tells Pastor she has the gossip of the century, he thought they were playing hide and seek because she closed the blinds. He jokes that it must be that she bought the blue shoes she saw yesterday. No, she tells him the goods on Pau, and he congratulates himself for being right about her and the way to treat her. But then, he tells her the bads from Moni, and that CL is playing her again because it was his idea for CL to fake going to Spain. He's not really going, and she ain't going with him.
Cl and Moni are chatting. She tells him she wants him out of the presidency soon because she wants to get started on some projects. He refuses to give her a precise date. She doesn't understand why he is waiting so long when before he told her he was dying to get to Spain.

Moni shows up to ask Pastor something and Ivonne excuses herself, but we don't learn what she has in store for him.

Juan shows up with some pan dulces and asks her how her day went. She says she’s feeling good. She asks if he’s seen CL. Juan tells her and he didn’t do this just to let them be free to do what they want, he did it for love. He told CL the truth about her suicide attempt because of CL. Pau is impactada of course.

Just like Amanda said, food and more food. Did you get a load of the big bag of pan dulce??

(I like your notes, they're amusing.) I completely agree with your sentiments about stuffing CL...he's a big turkey.

Thanks Kris. Happy Turkey Day y'all!!
 

Kris, Thanks for the great recap. I am having trouble with the high pitched whining Paula is doing while everyone else tries to be solicitous of her stupid actions that scared anyone seeing it, like our dear Juan who did just act automatically to be as helpful as he could and save her sorry-azed life.

CL's dilemma of the lies is getting funnier by the moment. I wonder if he does make it on a plane if Yvonne will be the hostess serving drinks in first class?
 

Kris, thanks for the great recap/notes! How diverting! I dont write notes; maybe I should.

CL is any woman's worst nightmare, isn't he? Come to think of it, Paula might be any man's worst nightmare, so they're a matched pair.

Kris, thanks for filling in the gaps! I don't know what to make of Alirio's impassioned conversation with Marely. Is he for real or not? I almost felt sorry for him, like Marely. But, he's such a b***head most of the time, and he fudged a will to his own benefit, that I can't really give him too much credit. He's not a nice person, really.

Thanks again, and have a good time wherever you're off to!

Jeanne
