Caray, Caray!

Anyone heard the internet rumor? Apparently, according to some bloggers, Mayrin Villanueva (that’s Miss Paula Davila folks) is rumored to be a front runner to play the new Bond girl in the next flick. It’s an interesting idea, but I’m not sure I’m crazy about it…

On to the show!!!

CL is dressed for the show and Miss Moni is quite impressed with her man. Before they leave, Moni has a question. She’s worried that Paula will be bothered by CL showing up with his ex. CL assures Moni that there will be no problem. CL also has some information for Moni. He’s moving to Spain and she’ll have to take charge of the business when he does. Monica accepts the charge and thanks CL for his confidence, but she wants to know about his sudden decision. CL claims to be tired and needs some “CL” time to start anew. Moni wants to know if this has to do with his personal life. CL should have been a politician. He deftly avoids the question and says that he’s currently in a crisis and feels that this is the best decision. Moni thinks it’s a little radical.

Is that seriously the Cachon house? Oh, yes, it is. Juan snaps some pictures of the true love of his life, his Lincoln. Marely comes out and wants to know why he’s taking so many pictures of the car. Juan explains that the wedding-car has great significance. Juan explains that the car symbolically carries the new couple into their new life. Marely isn’t impressed but Juan doesn’t care. He goes back to photographing the car. Marely gets Juan’s attention when she tells him that CL is moving to Spain. Marely drops the news and leaves for the house. Juan looks pensively into the sky. It’s kind of hard to take this scene seriously with all the pink balloons in the background.

At the church Kike psyches himself up for his upcoming nuptials. Fernando tries to calm Kike. They speak for a moment about Kike’s lovely suit, but Anga interrupts to greet Kike. Anga asks about the bride and the in-laws. Kike explains that they’ll be arriving together and in a little while. Anga excuses himself to get a seat. Kike looks like he’s about to puke out that pillow.

I have to admit that I expected a little more Bridezilla out of Yadira. She complains about Alirio being in the car, the fact that they’re late, that her flowers are wilting and that she’s hot. Juan volunteers to roll down the windows (because Lincolns don’t have air conditioning) but she shoots him down. I’m not sure why; I don’t think I’ve ever seen her hair move. Juan thought bubbles to himself about what Marely told Juan about CL. Nidia interrupts his thoughts to point out that with his hair like that, his nose looks bigger. Alirio joins in the making-fun-of-Juan fun. Juan thinks to himself that this is the first time that Alirio and the Cachon women have ever agreed. I was hoping that someone would point out that Juan looks like a leprechaun in that suit, but no such luck.

Back at the church Yvonne complains about being at a Cachon function. Pastor tells her to calm herself and to enjoy; she’s his date this afternoon. Yvonne wants to know why he didn’t come alone if it’s going to be such fun. Pastor explains that he thinks of this more as a joke. Also, he always used to come to these functions with his mother; he doesn’t want to be alone.
Paula and her mother show-up and greet Pastor and Yvonne. Yvonne happily points out that Paula is alone. Um, apparently Yvonne missed Paula’s dress. She may be coming a lone but I can guarantee that she’s not leaving alone! Paula retorts that she’s glad that the two of them (Pastor and Yvonne) are there because she knows she won’t be bored with the entertainment they’ll provide. Ana politely compliments Yvonne’s dress. Once they leave, Yvonne goes back to complaining.

Juan stops to kick everyone except Yadira out of the car. Nidia turns and gives Yadira some advice. Juan hurries her from the car. Bridezilla comes out again and complains about her circus of a wedding.

Ana scolds Paula for “playing” with the secretary. Paula, of course, thinks she did nothing wrong. Paula explains that Yvonne’s worked up about CL. Ana comments that she’s not going to miss that man one bit.

The Cachones finally make an appearance. They immediately run into Pastor and Yvonne. Pastor pays compliments to Nidia. Nidia moves to the Davilas. She greets them and then asks for CL. Yvonne explains that he’s not here and that he’s terrible. Nidia’s preoccupied because CL is her daughter’s godfather and he should be there. Nidia brushes off his absence and heads for the church. Right before she walks in, she runs into Ang. This causes her to spontaneously combust. Just kidding! She passes out into Alirio’s arms. Everyone worriedly flocks to her. Alirio begs her not to leave him alone. He begs Marely to tell him what happened. Marely doesn’t know.

P and I walk away from the crowd and talk about the spectacle. Yvonne thinks there must be something going on there. It was like Nidia knew him somewhere. What if Nidia’s related to Pastor’s brother? Pastor doesn’t see it. They debate whether it’s pregnancy, illness or an act in order to delay the wedding.

Fernando pulls Kike aside. He wants to take Nidia to the hospital. Kike’s not worried about Nidia; he knows that she’s strong and will be fine. Fernando can’t believe they’re going to stand there with their arms crossed while Nidia dies. Kike assures Fernando that Nidia will not die. He points out to Fernando that with the whole family watching, it might be strange if Fernando takes off with Nidia to the hospital.

Juan comments that it’s taking a long time for the sign to come up the road. He wonders out loud if the family forgot about Yadira. Yadira says that Nidia never forgets anything. All of a sudden she freaks out. Kike’s bored of her and decided to leave her in her wedding dress and pregnant with his child. Juan tells her not to even joke about that. He’s sure that Yadira and Kike’s love is for forever. Juan tells Yadira to stay put; he’s going to check on things.
Alirio figures out that it just takes some holy water to wake his Misses. There’s sparse applause. Alirio wants to know what happened, but Nidia just wants to get the show on the road.

Juan approaches Paula and Ana. Paula explains that Nidia fainted, but that she’s okay now. Nidia approaches and asks for the godparents; she wonders if they should be called. At that moment, the Farrell’s walk up to the church. I and P see this and immediately run over to greet CL and Monica. Juan can only think about Paula and how she’s feeling. Nidia tells Juan to go get Yadira. She turns to scold CL and Moni for showing up late.

Juan returns to the car but only finds a discarded bouquet in the back seat.

Nidia prepares Kike for the bride. Kike thanks Nidia for everything. Fernando boldly approaches Nidia and calls her his love. She shushes him. Fernando wants to know why she hasn’t wanted to see him. She explain that nothing’s changed. She doesn’t want him following her because she doesn’t want a scandal. Fernando protests. Yvonne observes the whole transaction with a pensive eyes.

Marely assures Paula that CL and Moni only came together because they’re Yadira’s godparents. Ana puts in her two cents – Paula shouldn’t care because she has nothing to do with that man. Paula shushes them both. Paula stares at them. Marely and Yvonne try to calm her.

Moni catches Paula’s evil eye. She turns to CL and tells him that she knew it wasn’t a good idea to go to the wedding together. Paula looks bothered. CL tells Moni not to worry about Paula. He says that it’s not their problem that the situation is uncomfortable.

Juan finds Yadira on the street corner trying to flag down a taxi. Good thing it’s her wedding day, because any other day and other dress methinks she would be picked up for solicitation. Yadira tries to pulls away from Juan but he won’t let her go. Yadira cries that she doesn’t want to get married. Juan says that if that’s the case then Yadira needs to have the guts to say that to Kike’s face. Juan reminds Yadira about her coming baby. Yadira still protests so Juan tries a different tactic. He carries her down the road.

Yvonne and Pastor loudly talk about how the Cachon family never seems to have things go as they plan. At that moment, Alirio comes rushing down the aisle screaming something about his heart being full of love. The bride has arrived! Nidia shushes him and pushes him into the pew.
The car and a very grumpy Yadira arrive. She reluctantly takes Juan’s hand to get out of the car. They argue under their breath but smile to those standing outside.

Dramatic music plays while Juan and Yadira weave down the aisle. Yadira smacks Kike with her bouquet. Before the ceremony begins, Juan gives the couple a speech about love and staying together until death. He tells Yadira to be obedient, which earns him one wicked look. Before Juan leaves the pair, he warns Yadira that he doesn’t want any more surprises. He steps behind the Pastor and snaps a picture.

During the ceremony, Alirio loses his cool. Nidia reminds him that she’s the mother and she should be the one crying. Alirio says that he’s very sentimental and that it reminds him of his and Nidia’s wedding. This does the trick; Nidia begins to cry.

Fernando stares at Nidia. Yvonne smacks him and warns him that Alirio might catch Fernando staring. Yvonne comments that Nidia’s a little old for Fernando. Fernando accuses Yvonne of being jealous. Yvonne comments that she can’t believe how her friends disregard their wedding vows. Fernando snaps back that must because she’s never been with a married man. Needless to say, this earns him a cold look.

Pastor decides to start a fight. He loudly talks about how good CL and Moni look together. Paula turns and scolds him. Their spat is so loud that even the soon to be newlyweds give them a look. Ana tells Paula to let it go. Paula tells Pastor to stop trying to instigate things.

The novios leave the church and immediately get a rain of flowers and a picture courtesy of Juan. Nidia runs into Anga again. He greats her and we’re left wondering if she’ll pass out again.

Alirio comes over to introduce himself to Anga. Nidia does manage to pass out one more time. Everyone wants to know why.

Guti drowns his sorrows in a drink and a cigar. His woman left him for another man. He smiles and says something along the line of those people should remember who is Ramon Guitierrez.

Nidia’s in bed and having nightmares. Marely and Alirio don’t understand. They want to know what happened; why did she faint twice? Marely assures Nidia that the godparents are taking care of everything downstairs. She wants to know what’s going on with Nidia. Marely thinks that they should cancel the reception and go to the hospital. Nidia asks about where “he” is. Alirio and Marely don’t understand.

Juan tries to cheer Bridezilla. She’s not having it. Yadira complains that whenever her mother is not the center of attention, she has to do something to bring all of the attention and focus back onto her. She accuses her mother of being able to die in order to get all of the attention. Juan reminds Yadira about how loving Nidia is toward her and that this is as though Yadira’s leaving Nidia (even if Yadira’s living at home). Juan tells Yadira that she looks precious. This gets Yadira’s attention. Kike rushes in to ask about the party. The guests are bored and Nidia has not showed up.

Pastor approaches Anga and wants to know who invited him. Anga wants to know why Pastor is so nosy. Pastor says it’s just that he’s curious. It’s interesting that Nidia passes out every time she sees Anga. Pastor asks if there’s something there. Anga says that he came to the party to have fun, not to gossip.

Alirio wants to know about Anga. Marely tells him to go downstairs and take care of the guests. Nidia assures she’ll be down once she gets her second wind. Before he leaves Alirio wants to know if it had anything to do with that man. Nidia claims that she was just overcome with emotion. Alirio leaves and Marely wants to know what happened. Nidia tries the same excuse, but Marely won’t hear it. Nidia says she’ll tell the truth as long as Marely swears not to say anything.

Ana and CL agree that they should leave. Paula thinks that they should have taken Nidia to the hospital. Monica doesn’t agree; it’s not every day that a woman’s daughter marries. Paula urges her mother to leave, but Ana won’t go without knowing about Nidia. Moni also will not allow CL to leave because they are the godparents.

Alirio approaches the microphone to make an announcement. He assures them that his wife will be down in a few minutes. He tells the guests to relax and enjoy the party. Juan starts the music. Moni tells them that she “told them so.” The music begins and the Davilas, the wet blankets that they are, leave just as the party gets started.

Nidia explains that she knew Anga and that he was her first love. When she married Samuel, she was still in love with Anga. Nidia begs Marely not to scold her. She explains that back in the day things were different; Nidia didn’t have an option. Nidia says that the positive is that if she had married Anga then she wouldn’t have her beautiful daughters. Nidia explains that when she saw Anga all of her emotions washed over hear and she was overwhelmed.

Alirio enjoys his drink and watches over the party. Alirio points at Pastor and complains about Kike inviting him. Juan defuses the situation and pushes Alirio to another part of the tent. Juan takes away Alirio’s drink, but Alirio just grabs another fresh one and goes on about Pastor. Pastor watches this with a smile on his face.

Nidia finally comes down to the party and announces her arrival. Oh, I guess Paula and Ana didn’t leave. Yadira glares at Nidia; Nidia watches Anga; Marely watches Anga and her mother and Anga blows Nidia a kiss.

Juan wanders around the party taking photos. He thinks how he wouldn’t change a thing. He thinks about the family and how happy he is for Kike. At the very end of the episode; he gets a picture with the two loves of his life.

Vocab: Privarse - “to turn blue” kind of like our “she was so sick she turned green before running off to the bathroom”

Would someone please tag this for me. My laptop is broken so I borrowed my mom's. I don't want to download the tagging program onto her computer. Thanks!
