Caray, Caray!

In doing the LT recaps, I noticed that the actress who plays Federica in DB, had a small role as Doña Gladis' maid in LT.

Santos tells Mujiquita that he needs proof of the accusations he's made against Pernalete. Santos asks why Mujiquita hates Pernalete so much all of a sudden. Mujiquita won't say. Santos suggests that M continue to work for Pernalete to get evidence.

DB says that she is pleased that Marisela wants to be a teacher. She suggests that Marisela might go to the University and asks how "Doctora Marisela Barquera Guaimarán" sounds. It sounds wonderful to Marisela.

DB actually kisses her daughter and Marisela is over the moon.

The Altamira vaqueros rhapsodize about seeing Las Terneras bathing.

Eustaquia sees DB crying after she comes back from seeing Marisela. DB denies that she cries.
DB then tells Eustaquia that Marisela is stupid. She believed DB and agreed to forgive her.

Alone, Marisela asks God why she isn't laughing and happy that she has her mother. She feels something piercing her chest.

In a great scene Eustaquia scolds DB for saying that Marisela stupid and weak. She says that it was she, Eustaquia, who was there for DB in all her travais but Marisela grew up abandoned by her mother and with a drunk father and turned into a beautiful woman capable of forgiving DB.
E says that she will be watching. She won't let DB destory the heart of that child. If you do something, I'll leave with her.

First Santos and then everyone except Cecilia tells Marisela that she is crazy to believe that DB loves her. Marisela protests that God says forgiveness is good and that people can change.

Santos goes to see Marisela to get her to change her mind about DB. He makes a bad start by criticizing her choice of reading matter - the novels of Madame Fabulé. Marisela struggeles to get the book back and ends up on top of Santos. There is an awkward pause. Santos then tries to convince Marisela that DB is pretending to be nice her to hurt him. She cannot understand how that would hurt Santos and he can't think of a reason either but he is sure it is so.

DB's lovey dovey act with QD convinces Nestor that they are in love. He doesn't believe the things that Santos and Lorenzo have told him about DB.

Josefa and Federica argue about who gets to go after Nestor. Federica says her need of sperm donors is more important but Josefa says that she is talking about money because neither Federica's father or Josefa's husband can do anything right ["ni tu papa ni mi marido dan pie con bola," literally "can't hit the ball with their foot."] Mujiquita is listening to this.

Marisela is invited to have dinner at El Miedo but Santos and Lorenzo don't want her go. She is sent to her room. Cecilia tells Santos and Lorenzo that they are acting stupidly in telling her what to believe. Believing that her mother cares for her is very important to Marisela. If it is a lie, she has to find out for herself. Of course, Marisela sneaks out to to El Miedo.

DB insists that Marisela drink at at dinner.

Antonio is arrested for raping another woman.

Marisela gets tipsy. Santos bursts in and says he has come to take her home.
