Pasión de Gavilanes, Mon., Aug. 25 Hortensia sleepwalks, Ruth has another dream and Grabi gets sick
Of course, Don Martín just misses Manolo and Manuel. Is there really only one wheelchair in the whole sanatarium?
Norma and Juan have an inane conversation in the hospital.
Bustillo and Violeta plot to kill Don Martín while Hortensia listens.
The gang decides to sell Eduvina's jewelry for charity.
Hortensia warns Don Martín and pretends to be sleepwalking when discovered by Violeta.
Ruth has a mysterious dream about Raquel and Calixto and Libia.
Hortensia's youngest child was insufficiently briefed on the subject of Esperanza when he visited his mother.

I was a little startled by how ballistic Benito went when Raquel finally told him he wasn't getting any inheritance. He was actually frightening. I don't suppose he'll be among the final body count in this show because he hasn't done anything mortally evil, but I wouldn't mind seeing him caught in the crosshairs of one of Dinora's asassination plots (or anyone else's for that matter).
Speaking of, I'm a little nervous about Raquel & Calixto's future. We are in the final stretch of the show & Dream Livia has spoken...I hope it's not too sad.
Again, Jean, I had the same thought about the wheelchair & the sanatorium. If this place is the finest mental health facility to be found in Colombia, I'll have to remember never to lose my marbles there.
Cute scene of the nighttime visit by Hortencia to Martín to warn him about the plans to poison him. His reaction when she jumped into his bed was hysterical. Her pretending to sleepwalk was clever and cute. I'm really enjoying the teaming of these two. I wonder if there's a budding friendship there (or more?) that will extend through the end of the show... But, if Abuelo ends up with a girlfriend before the end of the show, then the Fruit Sons ABSOLUTELY must!
Speaking of Bustillo & Violeta, with the appearance of these two, it looks like two more villages somewhere have lost their idiots. Why they flesh out their evil plans out loud in front of the people to whom they apply is just absurd. But, that's the one break that Hortencia & Martin will get, so there's my answer, I suppose.
Inane conversation though it was (and it was), I did enjoy Juan & Norma's little scene in his hospital room. I got a kick out of Juan. The combination of his somewhat slurred speech and goofy facial expression made me wonder if Mario might have overdone it a little on the pain meds before that scene was shot. ;-) But the completely humorless look on his face when Leonidas & Melissa walked in on them was priceless; pure Juan. Someone on YouTube commented that Mario's right hand seemed to be traveling across Danna's backside a little more than was necessary in that scene. Looked fine to me. ;-)
More "El Cuerpo del Deseo" trivia teasers: This may be old news to some of you, but the scoop is Mario Cimarro's current love interest is Vanessa Villela, the actress who plays his character's daughter in "Cuerpo".
Thanks for the tidbit on Mario/Deseo Marie Celeste. I'm guessing this would be the daughter of his character when he's got the old guy's soul as opposed to the original character, unless this spans many years. Than again, don't tell me if you know, I'd rather be surprised ;)
I guess they only have one wheel chair 'cause they haven't needed two yet? For what it's worth, I don't think this is set near Bogota or another large city specifically, but in a more rural setting, so that's why the hospital facilities leave so much to be desired.
