Cuidado con el Angel, January 14, 2009

We start off with a repeat of last night’s episode. Leopard is playing his amazing harmonica while Marichuy is in the bedroom asking herself if she can love him.

A series of shots showing Marichuy at the hacienda with the baby in various places. She wonders if she can love Leopard. Micaela comes running to Cande that they caught the lady (Blanca) who killed Viv. She tells her the whole story is in the paper.

Blanca is shown into a jail cell.

Cande does not want Marichuy to see the paper. Micaela says that Marichuy must find out the truth soon. Cande tells her to give her time.

The lawyer tells JM that the case is very complicated. JM says that he will present papers to the judge explaining that Blanca is a sick woman. Suddenly, Onelia bursts in the room. She tells the lawyer not to defend Blanca for the murder of her daughter. If any lawyer defends her they will lose there prestige and honor.

Elsa and Nelson are in their apartment. Nelson thanks Elsa for taking care of him even though she does not love him.

JM tells Onelia that the lawyer is not intimidated by her. She tells JM that the lawyer needs to be aware of what the repercussions are if he defends Blanca. Did you tell him that you are happy that my daughter is dead? That you hated her and the night that she was murdered was the night you felt liberated. JM tells her that she is getting out of hand. She continues on that all this happened because Viv left him instead of loving him passionately. But he never loved her and she faked her death. JM tries again to tell her that what she is saying has no relevance to the case, but again she ignores him. She tells the lawyer that Viv faked amnesia because she was desperate to return to the house so that she could be with her husband and daughter. JM again pleads for her to stop talking. Onelia then says that JM and Blanca planned her daughter’s murder along with the double personality. She then storms out of the room.

Elsa asks Nelson why he thinks that she does not love him. Because it’s the truth. You were going to leave me again, but stayed with me for pity. You know that I’m going to die. I want to tell you to leave and that I don’t care to stay by myself. But I can’t tell you to, because I am scared. Please don’t leave me. Elsa tells him that she loves him and will stay with him till the end.
The lawyer tells JM that he will represent both him and Blanca. JM asks him why after hearing what Onelia just said. The lawyer says because of Onelia’s hatred for JM and Blanca. She wants vengeance. He also wants to find out about all the stuff she said regarding Viv faking her death and amnesia. JM tells him that the information is irrelevant to the case and does not want the jury to hear about her conduct. He continues on that he does not want her reputation to be tainted because she was his wife and the mother of his daughter and her memory should be respected. The lawyer tells him that as his attorney he should be told all of the truth even family secrets. Fine says JM. I will tell you, but you are not to make public anything I am about to tell you. The lawyer responds back “Even if it can prove your innocence or Blanca’s?” JM hopes that it will not be necessary.

Leopard is in his chair and has just finished reading about Blanca being arrested.

JM and the lawyer are meeting with Blanca. He informs her that he will be defending her in the trial.

Marichuy starts reading the paper, but Leopard tells her to forget it. He wants to take her somewhere.

Estephania and Isa are visiting and talking about the case. Estephania tells her that she will be at JM’s side the whole time consoling him and holding his hand.

Marichuy and Leopard are outside talking. They talk about the change in him and his feelings for her. He tells her that if she leaves to take him with her. She gets embarassed.



Onelia asks Rocio where Mayita is. She thinks its time for Mayita to know the truth about JM.



Leopard is taking a nap and Marichuy is messing with him by using some type of plant to tickle his face. Marichuy says it's time to go back. He says that the time he has spent was like being close to heaven, but it's time now to go back to reality. Life can be so cruel. Marichuy says that he must still be thinking about the article in the paper.

Rocio tells Onelia that JM told them not to tell Mayita yet of what is going on. Onelia says you always do what is ordered from JM. Rocio tells Onelia not to forget that she was mistaken about Viv's fake death while accusing JM. And that she is mistaken about him now.

Marichuy and Leopard are walking back to the hacienda and he asks her how he knows the newspaper bothered him. She tells him it' in his voice. He confesses that the woman killed was going to be a mother and ...... but gets interrupted by a guy telling Marichuy that Padre Anselmo is at the hacienda. Marichuy goes running to see him.

Rocio tells JM that he needs to talk to Onelia. She has kept Mayita in her room because Onelia wants to tell her lies to put her against you. She wants to tell her tat Blanca killed her mother and you were her accompliance. He leaves to go see her.

Marichuy asks PA if he has seen the baby. She scolds Cande and leaves to get him.

JM finds Onelia in the living room and tells her that he wants to talk to her about his daughter. He tells her that she once had to leave the house because she was trying to get Mayita against him and he will throw her out in the street again if she persists. She says let's see who has to leave once the trial is over. Hopefully, JM says, it will be you. I have respected you as the mother, but you have always acted as an enemy towards me. And on top of that you have always wanted to inflict the most pain to me. She tells him not to raise his voice to her and that no one will ever convince her that Blanca is innocent. JM reminds her about her little conversation that she had with his lawyer and that the information she told him could be used in our favor.

PA thanks Leopard for all that he has done for Marichuy. Marichuy resents mini Juan to PA. A sad look comes across his face. When she asks him what's wrong he tells her that he remembers a little girl that was promised a little baby brother. Marichuy recalls her conversation with Mayita.

Onelia wants to know what he is talking about. He tells her that Viv's character and morals could be brought up in the court as a defense. She tells him that he should not speak ill of her. He does not want to tarnish her image because of Mayita. It is her fault if it comes out.

Marichuy tells PA that she owes so much to Leopard. She tells him that Leopard confessed that he is in love with her.

Amador goes to visit with Estephania and Isa.

Marichuy tells PA that she wants to go back to Mexico and become an actress making lots of money. She asks PA for his guidance.

Amador tells Estephania and Isa that Marichuy wants to think a little before deciding if she wants to go back to Mexico. He blames Leopard and thinks that he is in love with her.

PA tells Marichuy that it is her decision and has she forgotten about JM.

The doctor has come to visit with Rocio and JM thanks him for his work in fixing up Rocio.

Marichuy tells PA that she has two choices. She can either go back to Mexico and work as an actress making lots of money or she can stay at the hacienda where she has peace. I can never find that in Mexico.

Estephania goes to visit Blanca. She tells her to get use to living in a jail cell because she will be in one for many years. Blanca asks her what she is doing here. Estephania tells her to thank her for getting rid of Viv.

Marichuy tells PA how she feels about Leopard. How he saved both her and her son. He tells her that is not enough. She feels that she will eventually love him. He is more of a father to my son then his real father. (i think that is what she said)

Rocio's doctor asks her how Vicente is doing. He thinks that Rocio is sacrificing herself for someone who does not try to get better. He blames him for the accident. She tells him that she knows Vicente still loves her. The good doctor tells her that she needs to forget about him.

Estephania tells Blanca that she killed Viv for her hatred and jealously but she is the one to benefit from it. She knows that Blanca is in love with JM and that he never looked at her as a woman, but like a piece of furniture. She keeps telling Blanca ugly things. Blance begs her to leave.

PA tells Marichuy to stop crying because nothing can be solved with tears. She is confused. PA asks her if she can be with JM will she go back with him?

Since I did the second half on youtube I cannot see what is going on tomorrow night.

Thank you for the terrific recap, Gloria.

I been watch every night lately. It is getting interesting I think. I like Marichuy is also about to returned to Mexico City. I think this because she has talked about it with Padre and Amador suggested it. Marichuy I think wants to come back to Mexico City even though Leo is telling her his feeling for her. She is uncomfortable with him in this way. They are more friends than otherwise even though Leo wants more. They didn't even kiss on the mouth.

I wondered why the Padre didn't tell Marichuy that Juan Miguel's wife is died now and she can go back to him? We know that Cande and Micaela know that Vivana is gone, but they don't want Marichuy to know. They want her to stay there at the hacienda.

Marichuy have find happiness at the hacienda even though she doesn't really love Leo. Even Marichuy even says that she can stay at the hacienda where she has peace. She can never find that in Mexico. This has help the baby grow and feel more secure.

I don't like Estefania sticking her nose where they do not belong. She goes to see Bianca to warn away from Juan Miguel. She still wants Juan Miguel for herself. I thought he told her to get lost. Why does she still coming back?

Thanks for the recap Gloria. Overall the episode was a bit vexing. Oneila ranting and needing to be throw out of JM's house.

Stephe reaching new lows with her tormenting of Blanca and thinking she can be there to console JM (seriously as I've said before two words...restraining order). ITA with you Genevieve on leche Stephe.

And Mari's line about how Leo has been more of a father to mini JM than JM. Perhaps if she would tell JM he was a father he could be one. Ugggh.

Sorry for my rant and thanks again for the recap.
 

Thank you Gloria for a fine recap.

Onelia is a harsh, cold person but it is understandable that she would feel bitter that her son-in-law is helping to defend the woman who killed her daughter and in her mind was maybe in cahoots with her. For everyone's sake, including her own, she should not be living there.

I don't understand what Viviana's moral character would have to do with the defense of the person who killed her. It wasn't self-defense so that would be blaming the victim from a legal standpoint. The double personality is the only defense that makes sense and I am sure it would be hard to prove without expert witnesses, which JM is not, as I doubt he has had experience with this kind of mental illness presentation. He's just not that swift in the smarts department.

By the way, I find the scenes at the hacienda very slow and dull. Too much talking. Say what you will, Stef, Onelia and Blanca/Ivette are always interesting. I even miss Viviana.
 

Gloria: I really enjoyed your recap - thank you!

Vincente better get a little more proactive as Dr. McDreamy is really putting the pressure on Rocio to forget about Vincente. If he doesn't start taking more of an interest, Rocio may just accommodate the doc.

Genevieve and Karen: Yes, the 2 obvious questions are: Why doesn't Mari know Viv is dead and why doesn't JM know he is a father? Very frustrating, I agree. Of course, I imagine the answer is there would be a lot fewer tears and angst to suffer through !:)

I don't blame Cande and Micaela for wanting Mari to stay at the hacienda. The botched abduction aside, Mari is surrounded by people who treat her kindly and care about her. Even though she would be happy with JM his nest is still too full of vipers for her to return now. Diana in MA
 

Good job, Gloria! Thank you so much! Once again you filled in bits that I didn’t understand.

That doctor is really something telling Rocio to dump Vicente, his intentions are so obvious and so selfish. But it’s interesting that Rocio has time to have coffee with him but no time to call Vicente or drop by to see him.

Do we think that Leo recognized Blanca?

I like being at the hacienda because the building is so wonderful, and because I’m on team Leo. Also, I like the easy friendship between Cande and Mica. I agree with Mari when she says she has a nice, quiet life there which she’d never have in the DF. Plus there’s so much sweeping to be done – it seems like that’s what the peons are constantly doing and even Mari was going at it in last night’s show.
 

Gloria: Thanks for the recap. I wish some of the characters in this novela would treat Mari like an adult now that she's a mother.

Candi is hiding news about JuanMi from her and Padre Anselmo presents her with riddles whenever that same subject comes up. Then, JuanMi lets the one opportunity he had to tell Mari the truth slip through his fingers. Of course, Mari won't tell him the truth either.

The only character who finally told the truth about something really important was Estefi in her vicious harrassing conversation with Blanca. So, who let her in the jail anyway?
 

ITA Pasofino, the other characters should treat Mari like an adult but continue to fail to do so. I guess I wish to obstacles were a bit less obvious. And you make great point, how did Steph get to visit Blanca in jail?!!

I also agree with you Diana that the ranch is a fortress of solitude and tranquility compared to the vipers nest of castle loco. However if JM would get a spine again and put Oneila out of the house, at least at the castle it would be calm. But then again he'd have to ban Steph, Isa and Amardork from visiting too.
 

It is so annoying not seeing JM and MC together. i'm sick of the same flashbacks. they better show them interacting soon it's been a year on the show already-- that's loco! The writers are making the storyline very unorganized.
 

Gloria, great recap, very thorough.

I too am ready for a plot shift. Onelia is beyond irritating. She's not a fun villain to watch at all; I just feel like I have a viscious shrew in MY house when she's on the screen. And while I like the hacienda, I'm getting bored of watching Leo sit around sniffing the flowers and acting simpery sweet.

Rocio is just so cold. Apparently she's got nothing but time on her hands, yet she can't spend any of it with Vicente. Maybe she really is done with him and his pity party, but just doesn't know how to tell him so she's avoiding him. She did say when they started dating that he was her first boyfriend, so it's not like she has any experience in breaking up...or any good examples, since her brother just keeps every woman in his life hanging on even if they are thoroughly toxic.
 

And, I don't see how Leo could have NOT recognized Blanca. And if he read the story, he should know that it was his old friend's wife who was killed. Now, any normal real-world person would have to discuss this with the entire household: "I know this woman! And this is my friend's family! I can't believe it! How awful!" Of course, in a telenovela no one ever discusses the most newsworthy stuff. Do telenovela writers not believe that drama can exist if people know what's going on?
