Enemiga - 7-23-08 - Sara gets back IN the job, Diana gets INtuition, Rossy gets INsensed, and Al gets IN good graces again

We start with the Pas still telling Sara they can’t take any of Abue Rica’s (Horty) money, especially because then Horty will think all is forgiven. Sara responds: It’s my right to use the money that will one day be mine to help you if I want. Pas don’t want her to tell abue about their bad fortune either. They apologize for raising voice .


Di complains about how everything went wrong and here is her Dad’s Ma being rich. Pa hears this and runs in saying that’s right...she is the millionaire not us. Besides I’ve got money because I mortgaged the house. He believes it’s right to pay for the cars and rebuild the shop.


Chalo is bugging Sara for his nookie because you know, he could have been dead now, but Sara says no time I have to keep on scheming. He whines.

Sara is packing to go to abue she doesn’t want to participate in revenge. Everything would be so easy if they would just forgive Abue. Zully runs upset to Omar.

Lore is still sitting by the stormy window.

Sara whines that Abue doesn’t even have Vasco to support her. Abue is so alone. Ma is disgusted. She is also upset that she could leave so soon after just finding them. Di listens in. Sara says she doesn’t want to have to choose between them either and this is sooooo difficult for her. Finally Pa gives in and says working with her fine, but you don’t live with her in her house. Sara smiles.


Di is getting the picture and complains to Vasco how Sara is manipulating her Pas. Vasco is kinder. Yeah, men are more clueless about female manipulation than women are. Vasco thinks it’s weird that she has such an affinity for his G-ma too, but he thinks well, she’s been void of family for so long and Snorty was the first one to fill the post, so Sara must feel some special allegiance to her.

Ma tells Di that Sara has agreed to stay and Pa has agreed to let her work with Abue.


Paula find keys in Betti’s jacket and takes the keys and chimes that she is going to sneak in and see exactly how ex-hubby lives.

Al & Tori chat about the news reporting an irresponsible driver, and then the story about Chalo getting hit by an older driver. Tori gets the hint.

Di calls Sara on her berrinche. Sara says it wasn’t but Di thinks at least emotional blackmail and she doesn’t want to fight either but she would like Sara to have more consideration for her parents.

Al tells Pa why Lore isn’t here and they are eating dirt again. He tells the story about Chalo. Pa says the guy should make the first move if he doesn’t want to keep fighting because she’s a woman. Pa doesn’t think Lore would trade him. He encourages sonny to go after her if she really matters. Say good bye to the problems.

Zully and Omar are discussing how weird it is that Sara defends the evil witch. They agree that money has colored her and that she is very materialistic. OK, they get the picture now. We know though that for the sake of plot line they are going to forget this little observation over and over again.

Lore wonders with Julian how it could be that everyone got sick from their food. She also talks about probably never getting back with Al. He cheers her that she can lean on them like family. Sara comes out and announces she’s going back to work with Snorty, oh, and Lore you better not be late for class. I notice she is getting Ferro’s hint and has a very low cut dress on this time and it’s actually different than before.

Back in the kitchen Di is telling Vasco that she knows Sara is her sis but something just ain’t right, she feels like Sara is a bad person. Vasco has that sense too. Oddly, he’s FINALLY changed his shirt!! But, ironically it doesn’t make sense to do this now, because he was sitting at the table earlier in the other shirt and it doesn’t really look like he would have left it, yet he has on the other shirt. Whatever. Guess I’m becoming an Anon#1 noticing everyone's clothes. Funny.

Lore comes in and muses more with Vasco and Di about the food issues. She and Julian go into the kitchen to start cooking. Di remarks that the opposite is happening with Lore as with Sara, instead, she is liking Lore more and more each day.

Lore tries to cheer Zully up, and tells of her idea to sell grilled tacos and pass out menus to each buyer. She has to go out and won’t help.

Pau shares her key discovery with Greta and she is more than happy to go with and even suggests that they duplicate the keys for future use.

Sara shows back up at work, oddly, she has pinned up her dress and is now hiding her cleavage. This is like the third time I’ve seen this. Odd. Jaqui gives her a job that she usually does every year for the San Jorge golf club saying Sara should learn more. Sara is pleased that she would do this for her.

Lore attracts a man to her taco stand who orders tacos de chicharrones for like 40 cents and gets a flyer for him and his sister. Another man walks up.

Jaqui is showing Sara stuff when Jaime comes in surprised to see her and hints at Jaqui to disappear. Sara tells that she convinced her Pa. Jaime is glad and wishes her Pa would take his help.

Zully shows up at the mansion to demand that Snorty not to buy off Sara. Snorty says people change and Zully says yeah, people, but you aren’t human. This boils her blood finally and it begins spilling out as she yells at Zully and calls her a measly house cleaner (afanadora).
Zully says there's that loving witch Horty that I knew, she wishes Sara saw this side. Smirk. Snorty te;;s her too, ha, your daughter is just like me or worse, why do you think she's working for me. Snorty asks Zully if when her daughter dreamt about her mother if she saw a good for nothing onion and garlic chopper. This earns Snorty a bofetada (slap).


Snorty throws her out and Zully says her daughter will remain with them because she cares about them and all your millions can't do anything because you'll end up in jail..

Lore and Juli are still in the park. All of a sudden they are attracting customers like flies. You know what else attracts flies. How funny. Anyway, she has raja con crema, tinga, mole, (super great site by the way) & chicharron en salsa verde.

Sara is kissing Jaqui's behind that she doesn't have the tasting experience that Jacqui does and Jac suggests they taste the dishes today and surprise Snorty. Sara suspects a trick, but agrees.

In the kitchen, Rossy and Maru are thanking their lucky stars that the witch and witchlet haven't shown up yet, when the mere utterance has summoned them, well part of them noticeably absent is Snorty and we know this signals trouble. Sara and Jacqui taste the food and all agree it's good. Rossy mocks them.

Omar is begging the guy to get the house deal in order as soon as possible because he really needs the money. Just then the "sorry" brother shows up. Jaime goes to try and give charity to Omar who of course pulls macho and won’t take any help. He thinks the help is only being offered so they wouldn't send him to jail, but Jaime says he's blood, yeah even though a little late on that.

Lore and Julian are just sending tacos off on the fly but they have to stop around 2:30 so she can go to school. Julian is already worn out.

More musing about the bad food. Vasco asks Di to the anniv party that she is already invited too. It's the org's 20th birthday. Cute.

Zully comes home and Jaime begs on bended knee for forgiveness but she says it's better if he leaves.

Jaqui tells Snorty they tasted the dishes already and she rips Jaqui a new one, not wanting to see her for a week. We knew this was coming.

Pau and Greta check out the love nest of the ex and remark at it’s luxury. Pau thinks everything is in her style and thinks this should have been her life.

Sara wants to help Jaqui who runs into the bathroom upset that she was sent home for a week.

Snorty chews out Maruja for letting the girls taste instead of her royal highness. They pull out the dishes again. Now if they were the same ones, of course they would be icky by now. Of course she likes none of them and expects them to be redone.

Rossy calls her a maniac. She suggests that everyone just leaves work in order to annoy that woman.


After the break Rossy channels Che Guevara and wants to start a revolution, that everyone has worked hard and doesn’t deserve to be mistreated. Maru tries to talk her out of it. Chef tells her too, he needs the work to feed his family and can't be a part of the "movement." Finally Maru threatens her impliedly with being fired, and she relents and Head chef Guy tells her it's not really better in other businesses than here, so relax.

Snorty chews out Sara for tasting the plates and Sara kisses her behind bad and says it will never happen again if she knew it would upset her she wouldn't have done it. Snorty bad mouths Jacqui, but also tells Sara that her Ma came to smack her down. Sara is sorry and ashamed, but says they let her back to work here, and slowly she is able to convince them to give her whatever she asks. Snorty says each day she cares less if they forgive her. Sara says well forgive you maybe not, but at least not press charges. She says they are now so saddled with debt they don't have a cent to pay an attorney. This spikes suspicion in the old witch and she wonders if Sara had something to do with the fire. Sara doesn't deny this, but procures an interesting quirky face and smiles saying for her Abuela to trust her. Snorty still unsure but suspecting, smirks back.

At the lesser house, Lore hands over a good bit of money to Zully and they thank her for helping them - Julian says Lore was a pro and not ashamed at all. Lore says she has to get ready to go to school now. Zully and Omar remark that it's Sara's first day too. She invites Lore to eat wth them and then they will all go over to the school together. She made chiles rellenos! Lore agrees.


The secret mission continues over at the lux apartment. Greta actually makes Pau a tea in their cups to calm Pau. Pau continues to complain about how all this stuff was her idea, and she can't believe that woman is living the life she should have, blah blah blah...just then they hear some key shaking and realizr someone is coming in. They leave the tea cup on the table, and all the pillows in disarray and run to hide behind the sofa. Jacqui comes in sits down moving the pillows and relaxes. Pau pops up to look at her and Greta grabs her head back down and reminds her to be quiet.

At the clinic Bruno goes in to see Al and asks if he has seen Sara. He says she's probably fine, why? Bruno says he would have liked to see her again. Al says well go look for her then. Bruno says he was thinking of that, to go and see her at work, but Al says well she's probably not there because today she and Lore start school. Bruno smiles and must get an idea...

Behind the sofa, Pau can barely contain her anger, when ex-hubby shows up. Jacqui thanks him for his support because she feels really bad and hates Snorty. He tells her she doesn't need to work, that's what he's for. this of course earns another wince from Paula. But luckily jacqui says she wants to work. Dario has something to take her mind off of it all, choose their honeymoon destination. Jacqui says no, you pick, she doesn't care. Of course he says he's always wanted to go to Thailand and Jacqui says that sounds great, then that's where we'll go. Another wince from Pau who is almost ready to body slam these two.

Attention finally turns to the cup on the table. He didn't put it there and she swears she didn't forget it from last night either. She thinks there are ghosts in the aparttment. Dario cracks up and says no way and knows how to relax her. They start going at it. Finally moving to the bedroom. At this point Greta and Pau make their circus exit. After the door closes, Jac runs back in swearing she heard noises. Jiggly tits follows her (sorry, he's still in pretty good shape for a guy his age, but it's best if he stands still and doesn't run. I'm used to Alejandro in Guapos and those Reyes guys with their shirts off, so in comparison.....)

Down on the street the gals muse about how they were almost caught. Pau muses about how Jacqui has Pau's life. I tell ya, this is the worst, but there is nothing you can do except suck it up and move on. Greta agrees with me because she thinks that Pau should never have heard all that stuff.

On the street in front of work Bruno catches up to Sara and brings her a smallish bouquet of flowers for luck. He offers to take her to school, but she says he Tia's chauffeur will take her and besides his patients need him more than she does and he should not have troubled himself with as busy as he is. She rolls down the window and takes off smirking at him. He smirks back.

At the institute we see Lore with her true family getting off the micro. Oh the irony them on the bus and Sara with the driver. Ha Ha. They go inside and Zully wants to make sure they have the camera. Julian says that's the fifth time they asked. They go inside and start taking pictures everywhere of all combinations. Sara shows up. Then someone asks who is Lorena. Turns out Alonzo has sent her a giant basket of flowers and stuff with a bear. Sara can only look on in envy. We then see that Alonzo is outside of the window waving and making goofy faces. Lore motions she thanks him.

Thanks for your patience....

Good morning "K"...thanks for the recap so far. I almost e-mailed you last night because d....it! you actually got "Enemiga Light"...very little skullduggery going on, Vasco and Diana getting a clue about Sara and Zulema pasting Hortensia a good one!!!
Enjoy partner. Betcha it's gonna be sturm und drang tonight.
 

Hey, "k": Great first half. Looking forward to the 2nd half.

"she is very materialistic. OK, they get the picture now. We know though that for the sake of plotline they are going to forget this little observation over and over again" --Snicker!
 

I was confused at the end of the episode when Alonslow started being goofy, waving and smiling at Lorena through the window, giving her a thumbs-up, and making faces.

Then I realized what was amiss... he was acting! I'd never seen him emote with his face before.

Has anyone noticed if he can wrinkle his forehead?
 

Gosh Julie...are you thinking Botox already!? I'll certainly watch for that forehead wrinkling.

Saw an absolutely horrible picture of Gabriel Soto in that rag TV y Novelas. His mouth was wide open and you could see a wad of green chewing gum in it.

Eeeeeuuuuwwwwwww!
 

Julie, I was wondering if he had a touch too much botox in his forehead! Paula doesn't move hers all that much either.
By the way, hooray for all of our wonderful, patient recappers for continuing to slog through this novela. Thanks, people!!!!!
 

Thanks so much for the recap K. It seems I missed one the of better nights (Tuesday's episode was depressing). I am eagerly awaiting the 2nd half.
 

Julie's comments and botox observations remind me of something I've been meaning to mention. Gabriel Soto looks different to me from when I saw him in Ladron. I haven't seen him in anything else so I could be wrong, but...what's different about his face? Botox? Nose job? Caps? I can't tell. Thoughts anyone?

Kris, so sorry I missed Zulema letting Hortensia have it. Very funny recap and I look forward to part two. Love your title!
 

Yep, I was thinking Botox... When my back is turned to the TV, his voice is a lot more convincing than his face is.

I haven't noticed whether he actually looks like a Botox case or not, but it would explain why his face doesn't do much.

If that's the case, then hopefully it wears off soon and then we'll see what he can do.

I don't know much about that stuff, really, but I assume that it's possible to use it moderately, so that your forehead isn't completely frozen.

From what I've noticed, it seems that some actors get a ton of the stuff before they begin a big role (Marcia - LFMB; Isadora - Destilando). This seems like a really bad idea to me, because it interferes with establishing the character, but maybe it's like shopping for a new outfit for your first day at a new job.

Eventually their faces unfreeze and then you see whether or not they really can emote; that is, if you haven't already given up on them.
 

Karen...I don't blame you for missing the show after Tuesday...what a night!...but last night's show really was pretty painless and the scene where Paula and Greta are hiding behind a sofa in Jaqui and Dario's apartment was a hoot. Only disturbing part was the way Dario's chest jiggled when he ran around shirtless.

What can I say...you hadda been there.
 

Querida Enemiga is about to start here, "K", but thanks for the links to all those great recipe sites.
