Friday 9/26 QE Three is the Charm
Hi everybody, the recap is now completed. Enjoy!
Madre Trinidad is not happy to see Alonslow. She doesn’t believe him that Sara is a liar. She asks for proof of what he is saying, and since he doesn’t have any she says she won’t help him investigate.
Later Alonslow and his father are outside the building. ALonslow tells his father that he understands Madre Trinidad, talking bad about Sara is like talking bad about a daughter, but he will obtain proof of what he says and then “se le va a voltear la tortilla” (La tortilla will be turned)
Lorena is preparing a menu for the classes she is going to give. Pati helps her
Sara talks to the unnamed student (or if she has a name I don’t know it) that started the protest against Lorena. Sara wants her to keep on protesting, she tells her that she shouldn’t give up. But the US has her number and tells her that now she realizes that Sara is a “Tira la piedra esconde la mano” (somebody that attacks and hides), but she won’t be manipulated anymore.
Zulema visits Diana. She came to help her with the baby. Diana is very happy, but when Zulema tells her that she has been a little sick, Diana decides that they won’t work today. Instead they’ll enjoy a mother daughter time and watch TV together.
Julian is in another photo session with one of those scary looking models. Rosi is mad, but tries to hide it. Julian is proud of her because she controls herself. The manager comes and gives him his advance of the photo session. He is happy is so much money, and gives it to Rosi for the wedding. Rosi takes it but is still not happy.
Vasco visits Jaime. Jaime gives him the good news that he is getting married to Maruja. Vasco is happy for him and comments that this is the second surprise that he received, but doesn’t give details. Vasco congratulates him.
At Maruja’s, somebody is knocking at the door, it is her husband!. Cara de impactada de Maruja. She walks in and acts like he just left yesterday. She is incensed that he seems so nonchalant about the whole deal and tells him that she hates him not because of her, but because of Rosi. He is unimpressed with her words, but seems impressed by how nice the house looks and tells her that he left because he knew she would be ok without him Maruja cuts to the chase and tells him that she wants him to sign the divorce papers. He tells her that he won’t sign any papers.
Back at the convent the nuns are talking about Alonslow’s visit. Madre Trinidad can’t believe the nerve of Alonslow, coming up with all those lies about Sara, but the other nun (don’t know her name) has her doubts, why Sara didn’t mention that Madre Asuncion told her who her family was? If Sara was talking to Madre Asuncion about the accounting, when did she have the time to tell her about her origin before dying?
Back at Maruja’s. She is desperate. She tells her husband he has to sign or else. Rosi’s dad tells her that he won’t sign because he needs money. He asks for 20,000.
Chalo gloats to Sara. He tells her that Vasco knows about his relationship with Barbara and that Barbara defended him. Sara tells him that Vasco will never accept him. Chalo says that Vasco is a good guy and he likes him.
Vasco goes to the lesser house and talks to Omar. He tells him that Jaime has changed. He is going to marry Maruja and needs Omar’s forgiveness. Omar says that he is tired of all the hate. He’ll talk to Jaime, but can’t guarantee what Zulema will do.
Paula is talking to Greta. They can’t believe that Maruja’s husband showed up and is asking for money. Dario comes in and is rude to Greta. Greta asks if he is upset. He snaps and tells her that yes he is very upset. He cames home from work and they (Greta and Maruja) are always there. He calls them chismosas (meddlesome) and tells them that he can’t stand it anymore. Greta is offended and tells him that she knows when she is not welcome. She gets up and tells them that she is not coming back ever. Paula is not happy.
Icturo tries to get busy with Jacky, but she is busy watching a movie. He calls her lazy and she tells him to be careful because she could get bored and tell Vasco about his caiman account.
Damian and Paula are arguing. Betina comes in and Paula wants to know where she was. Betina tells her that she was at a friend’s house doing homework. Damian defends her and Paula is very upset because she feels he is undermining her authority. She sends Betina to her room.
Jaime is talking to a very upset Maruja. He says he is willing to pay, but Maruja doesn’t want to do it. Rosi comes in and sees her crying. She looks guilty.
Lorena asks Erni if he likes the menu she prepared for her class. He tells her that she is getting so good that soon she’ll be the teacher. Lorena tells him that since they are complimenting each other she should say something good about him. She thinks a little and then says that she loves his onion soup. They name different recipes and at the end Ernesto says --your mouth. Lorena says that her mouth is not a recipe. He says –no, but it’s mine and I love it. He kisses her. She tries to stop him telling him that the kids are coming soon, but he has a surprise; the kids are spending the night at their aunt’s house. She tells him that he should have tell her. They embrace and kiss and we are treated with a very short (for my taste) love scene. (See? For me this seals it Lorena and Ernesto are the couple)
2nd part
The nuns called Alonslow back. They tell him that they have realized that Sara story doesn’t make sense and have decided to help him investigate. They go into the office of the Mother Superior. Madre Trinidad tells them they have until noon to investigate.
Lorena’s students are waiting for her. All of them are adults “of the third age” (I’m not sure about this term, I guess it means people older than 65) they are talking amongst themselves hoping that their new teacher gives them good recipes. Lorena shows up and starts the class.
Back at the convent they are still rehashing… I mean talking about Sara and what she did. Since Madre Asuncion’s heart attack was so fast and unexpected Sara had no way of finding out that Hortensia was her grandma. Even If she had looked in the files she wouldn’t have find Hortencias name since her name nor her signature are in the file, then, how did she find out? They decide that the current files must be fake and Sara must have changed them to help Hortensia. Alonslow asks the nuns if they have seen Chalo. Madre Trinidad remembers that she saw Chalo about the same time of the problem with Dona Hortensia. Alonslow tells them that Chalo is Sara’s lover and that he is almost sure that it was he who changed the files. Caras de impactados all around.
Chalo is talking to Vasco. He tells Vasco that he feels uncomfortable talking to him about his mother, but that he really loves her and that’s why he wants Vasco to accept him, to make Barbara happy. Vasco is not sure, but because he is open minded and because he also wants to see his mother happy, he’ll accept Chalo, but he wants Chalo to know that if he makes his mother suffer, he’ll have to deal with him. Chalo says that he’ll show him that he really loves her. Barbara walks in and is very happy to see Vasco and Chalo talking. Chalo hugs her and tells her that everything has been resolved.
Back with Lorena, everybody is very happy. The class has ended and the students taste the food. They are impressed in how easy it was to cook Lorena’s recipe. She tells them that for her next class, they’ll cook “mole de olla” Everybody is excited about it. Ernesto is outside waiting for her. He asks her about the class and she tells him that she loved it. She wants Ernesto to teach a class but he tells her that this class is all hers and all he wants is to taste what she cooks and a kiss. Lorena smiles suggestively and asks why only one kiss they are not on a diet. Ernesto shows us his beautiful smile.
Zulema is looking for somebody to help her with her business. Remember the servant that Hortensia fired way at the beginning because she thought that she had stolen some money when in reality it was Sara who stole it? Well Novelaland is very small because she is the one looking for the job. Zulema likes her, but when she asks for references the lady tells her what happened to her and Zulena realizes that she worked with Hortensia.
Rosi and Julian are waiting for Rosi’s father. Rosi asked to talk to him, but she wants to do it alone. Julian doesn’t want to leave. When her father shows up, Julian realizes that Rosi and her father had already seen each other. He tells them he’ll wait in the other room. Rosi tells her father he shouldn’t have asked Maruja for money. He tells her that he needed an excuse not to sign the divorce and besides he needs money, so now he won’t sign until he gets his money. Rosi wants to kick herself.
Jaime is trying to convince Maruja to get a loan to pay her ex. Maruja doesn’t want to do it. They are arguing when Omar shows up. He says he wants to talk to Jaime.
Rosi yells at her dad that she hates him. Her dad asks her if she doesn’t care anymore if her mother marries. Rosi tells him to leave. Julian comes out and tells him to leave or else. Rosi’s dad leaves, but he tells them that he won’t sign until he gets his money. He leaves and Julian wants to know why Rosi told her father not to sign. Rosi cries and hugs him and tells him that she is a fool. She realizes that she has been very selfish. They decide to pay with the money they have been saving for the wedding.
Omar congratulates Jaime on his upcoming wedding. They both rehash a little about their problems. Omar finally tells him that he forgives him because he is tired of all the hate. They hug.
Hortensia is trying to write. The nurse tells her that she should take it slowly, but Hortensia really wants to write. The nurse gives her a new page.
Sara is at a mall and sees Bruno. Bruno asks her for her grandmother. Sara doesn’t want to talk about that, she wants to know if he has seen Alonslow. Bruno tells her that Alonslow is back.
Alonslow and her father are eating ice cream when Alonslow’s phone rings. It is Sara. He doesn’t answer.
The nurse is reading to Hortensia. She closes the book and tells her is time to go to bed. Hortensia wants to keep on writing. The nurse gives her another page. Hortensia writes Sara’s name.
Back at the convent, the nuns brought the files of all the girls that came the same year that Sara and Lorena. They compare the files and they realize that Sara’s file is the only one with just one signature. Madre Trinidad tells them that all of the files have to have two signatures; one for the person that receives the child and one for a witness, therefore Sara’s file is fake, but what if she not only faked her file, but maybe she is not Hortensia’s granddaughter and she faked the file of the real granddaughter? They start wondering who the real granddaughter is. Toribio say that he is sure that Lorena is the granddaughter because Sara has stolen everything from her; why not steal her origin too?

Thanks for a great part 1, Maricruz. I agree, Ern and Lore are THE couple (yippee!) and I figure Al is going to get redemption (and revenge) by making it up to Lorena by discovering the truth and getting it out.
Waiting for part 2!
Waiting for part 2!
Thanks Maricruz. Always enjoy your explanation of the dichos and I think we're all enjoying the love scenes between Ernesto and Lorena. Let's keep our fingers crossed!
I thought it was cute when she gave him the food from the class and he gave her a kiss, she asked whether they were dieting...her way of getting more kissing. She is turning into a delightful minx.
Is it wishful thinking or is there any basis for deciding that Ern and Lorena are the couple?

NJ Sue: Unless I'm mistaken, the formula usually is that the man the heroine goes to bed with for love is the one she marries in the end.
Thanks for the part one recap!!!! I also hope that Ernesto and Lorena stay together....what with that they have already done the deed and also because he is sooooo nice to her compared to the way Alonso treated her in the end! The same kind of thing happened in Amor Real...the girl ended up with the second guy! Hope it happens here or I will be really disappointed!!!!!!

Jardinera: That makes sense. They would have had her go to bed with Alonso if that was the way it was supposed to end up. And they wouldn't have made him such a jealous hothead with no faith in her. But I am suspecting that they were planning to have them end up together, but when they saw the chemistry between her and Ernesto and how the fans felt, they decided to change the ending. And there has been almost no interaction between her and Alonso for ages. That might be another clue. NJ sue

NJ Sue: That is probably right and what I suspect is that we might see more of Ernesto and Lorena together in the intro musical pics now. Just a suspicion cuz I thought I saw more of them in the intro on Friday's show.
Maricruz, thank you so much for this great recap and for getting my back on this one! I really, really appreciate it! You are the BEST dicho translator ever!
“he will obtain proof of what he says and then “se le va a voltear la tortilla” (La tortilla will be turned)” That’s a fascinating dicho. In other words, we’ll see what’s underneath?
“But the US has her number and tells her that now she realizes that Sara is a “Tira la piedra esconde la mano” (somebody that attacks and hides), but she won’t be manipulated anymore.” It’s so gratifying to see first Vasco, then Lorena, then Chalo, then this student start calling Sara’s bluff. Alonso, too. They must not realize how dangerous she probably is. Great dicho!
“He calls them chismosas (meddlesome) and tells them that he can’t stand it anymore. Greta is offended and tells him that she knows when she is not welcome. She gets up and tells them that she is not coming back ever. Paula is not happy.” Dario’s days are numbered in this house. Maybe he hasn’t sold his condo so he won’t have to sleep in his car.
“Icturo tries to get busy with Jacky, but she is busy watching a movie. He calls her lazy and she tells him to be careful because she could get bored and tell Vasco about his caiman account.” Ickturo really needs to watch his back. Do you think he really misses Valeria about now?
“They embrace and kiss and we are treated with a very short (for my taste) love scene. (See? For me this seals it Lorena and Ernesto are the couple)” AMEN! I so hope you are RIGHT, Maricruz!
“All of them are adults “of the third age” (I’m not sure about this term, I guess it means people older than 65) t” Good concept to know, thanks, Maricruz. I wouldn’t ever pick up on that!
“Remember the servant that Hortensia fired way at the beginning because she thought that she had stolen some money when in reality it was Sara who stole it? Well Novelaland is very small because she is the one looking for the job.” LOL! This was such a nice touch, thanks, writers!
“Toribio say that he is sure that Lorena is the granddaughter because Sara has stolen everything from her; why not steal her origin too?” Whoever thought Toribio was getting old and dotty was wrong. He’s right on target here!
Jardinera, NJSue, Becky T., I hope you are right that she’s going to end up with Ernesto because he’s her first and only love—and the telenovela virginal heroine always marries the first love(r).
Thanks again, Maricruz!

Thanks for the recap Maricruz. I too hope you are right about Lorena and Ernesto (and your theory does follow the novela rule about the virgin heroine sleeping with and marrying her true love). They are really a great couple.
I knew Don Toribio had figured it out but couldn't understand his reasons ('til the recap). He's been an excellent judge of character (except in his own life, pobrocito) throughout the novela and this insight is consistent with that. My only concern now is for his well being b/c as we know Sara is ruthless.

Thanks again Maricruz. The "third age" phrase is also used in French. A tactful way for saying the elderly, the old, or just over 65 I guess (since I'm 68 I'm trying to take this gracefully!)
Maricruz, thanks so much for your great recap.
Here's hoping Lorena's and Ernesto's happiness continues. Now that Alonso is redeeming himself, I see a good ending for him (perhaps Valeria will return and they will end up together). Now that the bloom is off the rose in the Paula/Dario recoupling, I hope she ends up with Raimundo. Unfortunately, I don't see a long term happy ending for the shockingly likeable Romeo/Juliet Barbara/Chalo romance. It's just fun to speculate. This show really keeps me guessing and I can't wait to watch each night to see what happens. Diana in MA

Thank you Maricruz. I agree that you are the queen of the dichos!
My goodness a LOT of stuff happened in this episode. They are really moving things along quite quickly.
Although I'm sorry for Paula and Dario that things don't seem to working out for them (and I wish it would for all concerned), their current situation seems realistic to me. Kudos to the writers for not making their reconciliation pat and easy. Maybe they will seek counseling to help their relationship, or maybe they will mutually decide that they just can't live together and Paula won't be the bitter shrew she once was.
Hee hee, I feel the noose starting to close around Sara's scrawny neck. I love it!
Go Ern and Lor!! They are great together.

Maybe they will seek counseling to help their relationship, or maybe they will mutually decide that they just can't live together and Paula won't be the bitter shrew she once was.
Hee hee, I feel the noose starting to close around Sara's scrawny neck. I love it!
Go Ern and Lor!! They are great together.
I'm a little disappointed in Dario. He really is selfish. Even with Jacqui, he never wanted to hear about her work, he only wanted to go to Thailand (his choice) on the honeymoon, etc. He's just not sensitive to the feelings of his ladyfriends.
I'm wondering if maybe even Snortensia can be redeemed (if Sara doesn't kill her first). For Lorena's sake, it would be better if Snorty became nice, got revenge on Sara, helped the environment, etc., and everyone forgave everyone, so Lorena would have a nice granny. Maybe not, but it's a thought.

I think a good compromise would be for Snorty to be just as cold and grumpy as ever, but less selfish and less likely to take her family for granted. Maybe she'd make amends with people she's wronged - not just her relatives, but also that poor maid she fired, and whoever else.
She'd still be a bitch, but at least she wouldn't be an evil bitch.
That would work for me - both satisfying and plausible.

Thank you everybody for your nice comments. I just don’t see how the producers of the Novela would want to keep Alonslow as the main character, unless his contract says that he is the main character and they can’t change it and then they are going to have to kill Erny to make it right for Lorena to have had sleep with him in which case I’m going to be really upset and I’m going to swear to myself never to watch another Novela ever again, which will last until I see Fernando Colunga in another Novela, and then… Sorry, I guess I just got carried away. This is why I’m so selective with what I watch I get too attached to the characters and then I suffer with them. Any way, thank you Jeanne for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this team. I really enjoy recapping. Until next time.
Ernesto is all but perfect. I hope he lives and Alonso takes a hike. Sorry, Alonso, but you snooze, you lose. Maybe they can pair him up with desperate Greta.
Jeanne about the tortilla dicho, it is like if one side of the tortilla is a person on one side of a problem (say Lorena) and the other side of the tortilla is another person on the other side of the problem (say Sara) so far Lorena's side has been on the hot plate, but with Alonslow's help the tortilla will be turned and Sara will be on the hot plate. Does it make sense? I hope I didn't confuse you more.
Thanks Maricruz...for that extra, very vivid description of the tortilla image. I will never forget it. (On the hot plate, ouch!)
Hombre, I'm thinking that Zuly's little catering gig will turn into a big deal while Snorty's starts to tank. That way Zuly and Snorty's ex-maid will one day be in a more prestigious position, professionally speaking, than Snorty, and Snorty will have to learn yet another lesson in humility. This will make her more likeable to the viewing audience.
Maricruz, the one who needs to be doing the thanking is me. You've bailed me out SO many times, bless you! And, you do it with such finesse, too!! I am so pleased to have the clarification on the dichos. FWIW, tonight I went to a great Mexican restaurant and was able to chat with the waiter and order entirely in Spanish, like nothing was odd about that--first time I've felt that comfortable. He was surprised at first, but more comfortable, too, I think--in the long run. AND the plus it was a terrific dinner. I learned from a Mexican friend that most of the Mexican restaurants here in the midwest cook in the style of a single state--generally the state from which the main chef comes. This one was in Jalisco style. Holey moley, was the Sopitos dish terrific!
Loved reading everyone's comments on what might happen. I'm still left cold by the idea that Monica might be pregnant--and I so hope not. That would be pretty much the worst case I could think of....mostly because Ern would feel so compelled to do "the right thing."
