Caray, Caray!

Hi guys, Cheryl is still out enjoying the beauty of Spain and that leaves you all to suffer my recap for this evening. I haven't had a chance to watch yesterday's episode however I was thrilled to read in last night's recap that my eyes will behold the sight of Sophia's pregnancy bump. I feel goose bumps...she has to be in her 36th month... aren't elephants or humpback whales pregnant this long? I'll research to find out. Sorry for the delay, I had a meeting this morning and wasn't back in the office until 11 CST.

Hacienda Don Agustin

• Sophia is muy impactada, Gabriela knew the Reyes' parents!
  
• Gabriela is lamenting the rejection / loss of "El Charro" in the confines of her bedroom. This explains her deep hatred. She's didn't cry over his death or that of his wife. She was happy with the news. Sarita walks in with a court notice for tomorrow.

Puebla, Pue.

• The judge has ruled that the Robles-Reyes are the true owners of the lands. Gabriela hoots and hollers that the lands are her (throwing in a few swear words and insults). Juan says the Judge has made his decision does she think that she's above the law to go against the decision? "You ruin my life and took what was most precious from me." Well that wasn't her daughters was it? I think she's talking about the lands. Revenge, Revenge I'm taking revenge on you Juan Reyes! And instead of giving Juan her signature slap move she attacks him by tickling his beard. They never did anything to her they just wanted justice and complete the oath they made to their father by his tomb. He mentions that his uncle said she knew his parents and she denies it. But Juan will get to the bottom of it.

• Don Agustin is looking over the girls’ childhood photo. What this? There's an old newspaper clipping with a picture of Gabriela and Juan Robles-Reyes together and smiling. Don Agustin always knew Gabriela knew who JRR was.

• Gabriela has started nitpicking at Feo and finally states that they've lost the lands. Feo says not to worry the Reyes will be losing the lands and hacienda. And he says that Raquel has told him that hacienda is mortgaged or has a lien. Gabriela doesn't buy the fact he just happened to run into Raquel. As Feo starts to smooth out Gabriela ruffled feathers Don Agustin comes in with the newspaper clipping to prove that Gabriela knew JRR. (When are people going to learn that you shouldn't give your only evidence to the accused?). She denies it. And to my surprise she doesn't rip it. (Besides wouldn't it have made sense for Agustin to read what the article said?). Maybe they meet at an event who knows says Gabriela. But Agustin insists she knew him and his wife. Feo is impactado.

I just adore Capricho he's such a good listener and so loyal. Oh ya Juan was just crying over Sophia (that isn't as important as watching this beautiful horse).

Er? As I looked up from my typing it looks like we have some new characters. So it's a father and daughter. She's off to take some exam. (Are we sure they didn't switch the novella on us? What this heck is this?) Ok she's in an equestrian competition and she won 1st place.

• Raquel has received a telegram from Ricardo. She's an idiot and he wants her to come back. But how can she leave Feo. There's a knock at the door and while she hopes its Feo, it's not. It's Gabriela with that signature slap ... Pa-Bam!

• Rigo has collapsed in front of his mom Hortensia.

• Raquel denies having to do with Feo and what’s more that Ricardo wants her to come back. Of course Gabriela says if Raquel goes after Feo again she's snitching to Ricardo.

• Rigo is still on the floor... (I swear if it’s because of a broken heart this recap ends right now!) Ooookkkk so apparently advance technology available at the Dispensario has informed Rigo's mom that he might have a brain tumor. And yet they don't have phones?
  

Well we're back to the new characters and Dra. Leonora Castaneda has just graduated from Med school as her proud papa looks on. She dedicates the title to her dad, etc. (Has anyone noticed that bug-eyed woman behind the father? What is she looking at!?). What it just dawned on me that his might be Juan's new love interest? She's leaving town and Papa is not too happy about that.

• Quintina is telling Juan that Rigo has a brain tumor. Juan and boys will help out with some of the medical costs. Uncle Pennybags (isn't that the guy from Monopoly?) has given Quintina the gold coins.

• Feo has cash laying all over his bedroom. Gabriela has just told Feo that Raquel is going back to her husband. You're the only woman for me, there was never anything with Raquel. He man-handles Crabby and she's all for it.

OMG! I can almost see the baby bump on Sophia.

• Suffering and Love... it was what the paper said which was given to her at the carnival. Both Sophia and Juan reminisce about their suffering love.

• Eugenia can't leave with Benito. Even though she doesn't love Rigo she just can't abandon him. Benito is leaving but he's not sure if he's returning.

• Back in bed, Feo and Gabriela are plotting against Sophia. The baby will disappear. Once the baby is out of the picture then Feo has to divorce quickly and marry Gabriela.

Months later....

• Business is booming for the Elizondo girls. There's the bump and Sophia is huge! The boys are tilling the land. Rigo is getting a cat scan and Eugenia (I swear) is wearing the same blouse. There's naked swimming... Momma Mia! Everyone is missing the loves of their lives.

• Juan is pondering in the dough....Sophia is ringing a bell to her belly. )Does anyone know if that means something?) She's fussing over the cloth that Juan purchased for her.

• Eva and Quintina talk about Rigo who has returned to the dispensario, etc. etc. I hope no one mines that I'm not really going to recap this part.

• So both Juan and Capricho are excited about the upcoming birth of his baby.

• Sophia and Agustin are going to visit the pueblo and to visit Rigo.

• The doctor Leonora is in and she's not welcomed in the tribe that she's supposed to be attending.

Back the Bad Love Bar

• Armando comes in with a big box. Looks like Feo has casted himself as the new singing act with that Charro suit his got.

The Storm

• There's a terrible storm brewing and Sophia is having contractions. Sarita in hysterical (No, Sarita don't get your mom!) Gabriela could care less about what's happening with Sophia. Assassination attempt #1 Feo is getting the doctor. But after Sarita leaves Feo comes back to tells Gabriela he's going to purposely get the truck stuck in the mud. Sophia will not be able to have that baby with out some medical attention. But Rosendo had a feeling that the truck wouldn't make it thefore he has taken off on horseback to get the doctor. Assassination attempt #2 Feo is dressed in the charro suit ...

• Juan's mother's intuition is starting to kick in. Sophia and their child need him!

• Back in Sophia birthing room. The girls are flipping out when Gabriela walks in. They'll have to wait for the doctor. Fatima enters the room with a midwife which Gabriela tries to get rid of. But Fatima has just informed them that Rosendo found the truck stuck in the mud. There's not way around it Gabriela gives in. She has at least gotten rid of the girls.

• The girls head to Don Agustin's house to tell of what their mother did. Agustin's expresses his disgust with Gabriela and mentions how convenient it was that Feo's truck got stuck in the mud. Sarita says that Don Agustin shouldn't be so suspicious of everyone.

• Juan and Capricho are riding like mad through the storm.
• With each clasp of lighting Sophia, in agony is pushing... Push Sophia PUSH!
  

Next time:
It's a girl!
Gabriela and Feo try complete their mission and kidnap the baby
Juan arrives just in time to save Sophia and their daughter
Juan and Feo fight it out by the river...there's a gunshot!

(Sometimes these previews give away too much...). It's been fun ya'll! See you next Tuesday!
