Cuidado con el Angel - Monday, Jan. 26, 2009

Episode 86:
* With JM Jr in the carry seat, MC and Cande discuss being together as a family. A knock at the door - they hesitate answering it.

* Leo argues with Padre in the church office - Leo wants to see MC and find out from her directly why she left him and his house like she did, right before they were to be married. Padre finally gives in and agrees to take Leo to MC.

* MC opens the apartment door. Amador waltzes inside and makes nice pleasantries to Cande and MC, and reminds MC of all the wonderful things he will do for her and her career. Cande doesn't trust the 'wolf king' one bit.

* Video loop - Cande and MC and Amador are packing up and preparing for their move to another place.

* MC, still with JM Jr in the carry seat around her front, Cande and Amador carry out everything and leave the old apartment again.

* At the new building, MC and Cande scrunch in the elevator as Amador pushes everything including MC's bike in the elevator and then himself as the door closes. Going Up!

* JM meets with his attorney in the castle office. They discuss the defense strategy for Blanca's case. JM needs to be on the witness list, as expert to testify about Blanca's mental disorder. They argue over finding other witnesses to back up the claim.

* Finally at the apartment, Amador plays welcoming host as Cande pushes the basket into the living area. Amador brings in everything else as MC holds the sleeping JM Jr. Amador points out where Cande and MC's rooms are. Cande goes to check them out. Amador talks with MC and assures her that no one knows where she is.

* Balbina interrupts JM and his attorney to tell them Lic. Villar is there. JM gives her a message. Lic. Villar enters the office. Balbina leaves.

* In hallway, Balbina tells Nellie that JM doesn't want to be disturbed, he is in a meeting with both his attorney and Lic. Villar. Nellie is impactado.

* In the office, the lawyers are discussing the case as Nellie enters and scolds Lic. Villar for agreeing to this meeting without her knowledge. JM's lawyer explains the reason.

* Padre and Leo walk to the apartment building and up to MC and Cande's apartment door. Padre knocks. No one answers. They look at each other, intrigued.

***** UNIVISION PROMO - MANANA ES PARA SIEMPRE, MUY PRONTO ON UNIVISION -- This one was all about opposites, like good and evil, love and hate, friendship and vengeance. With video clips of Lucero, Dominika Paleta and Fernando Colunga. ******

* In the office, Nellie is still irate and adamant in prosecuting MC; Villar and JM's lawyer convince her that pursing this is a waste of time because MC hasn't been in town for months. Nellie shocks all three men with the news that MC is back in Mexico City.

* Padre continues knocking with Leo at his side. Olga comes over to the stairs. She tells them that MC and Cande left awhile ago.

* Nellie explains to JM and the lawyers that she is going to continue with her charges against MC and is convinced that she will win, despite Villar's objections.

* Cande and MC talk at the sidewalk taco stand, as MC holds JM Jr.

* Nellie and Villar grumble together in front of JM and his lawyer - they discuss MC. Nellie goes melodramatic about MC and her problems with MC over the years and blames MC for defending JM and therefore foiling her attempt at getting custody of Mayita. JM snaps back.

* At the church, Padre tries to assure Leo about the frustration of MC and Cande disappearing again. Leo will be staying in the city and continuing his search for Liria and Lala. Leo leaves.

* JM argues with Nellie. Nellie turns to grumble with Villar again, then excuses herself, her nerves are really acting up and she can't deal with the discussion anymore. Before she leaves, she tells Villar that she to never permit MC to testify in this trial. She leaves the room. Villar soon follows her out of the room. JM and his lawyer discuss JM's worries and desperation to find MC, where is she? where in the city could she be?

* Cande and MC, with JM Jr, are at the sidewalk taco stand eating and talking - MC is convinced that she can give her son whatever he needs and won't depend on anyone else to help. (little miss independent)

* Ed and JM sit at a local cafe and Ed tells JM that Viviana was never pregnant. Apparently there was a mix-up at the lab and Viv's test results were switched with another lady's. Viv was never pregnant - the other lady was. JM is very relieved, especially after what Nellie told him about MC at the custody hearing. JM then tells Ed that MC is back in the city.

* At the grand jury hearing, the judge starts the proceedings and the lawyers continue their cross-examinations of Nellie's declarations against Blanca. Villar starts first.

* JM talks with Ed about his never-ending love for MC. JM wants desperately to find her, but is also worried about the trial and the problems he has in his life right now.

* MC calls Padre to assure him that she, JM Jr. and Cande are fine - she will go to the church soon, she promises; she assures him that she is being a good mother to her son. Padre talks with her. She gives him her new address. He knows where it is and will be there ASAP, they need to talk.

* JM's lawyer starts with his counter-arguments. Nellie snaps - she stands up and yells at the judge "THAT'S A LIE!"

* Cande, MC and JM Jr. are wearing paper hats made from the newspaper. MC and Cande are redecorating Amador's apartment as they discuss the articles that MC has been reading in the paper about JM and Blanca's court trials. MC is on the side of JM and Cande is intrigued by Blanca and Ivette. Cande then mentions Leo and what he might've thought to return to the hacienda and find them gone. The doorbell rings. Cande goes to answer it. Cande startles MC with her shouts of welcome to the visitor. Padre enters with Cande and immediately scolds MC for leaving the hacienda without notice to him and then to move out of the apartment without telling him ahead of time. MC apologizes. Padre asks whose apartment is this? MC says it's Amador's. Padre isn't too happy.

* Blanca stands behind bars and listens to the proceedings. Nellie argues with JM's lawyer. Villar's associate stands and asks about new witness. Lawyer says the expert's name is Dr. Juan Miguel San Roman. Nellie can't believe it.

* Padre talks with MC, as she holds JM Jr. in his carry seat. They discuss her life and choices she's making. They discuss JM and Blanca's trial, and Padre wonders about MC's love for JM, her son and her decision to marry Leo and then abandon him to return to the city. MC explains her reasons for returning and hopes that Leo can forgive and forget her. Padre says that won't happen, Leo is in town now.

* The hearing continues - They debate JM being added as an expert witness.

* Padre continues to talk with MC.

* Judge tells the lawyers that he will allow JM to be added to the witness list then they mention MC's name on the list.

* Padre and MC finish their talk and start to play with JM Jr.

* Olga enters the apartment and talks with Purita - Adrian hasn't been by in several days, what happened, daughter? Purita explains that it was her decision to break up with Adrian.

* Steffie meets with Amador in a local sidewalk cafe. Amador smokes his pipe as they discuss MC; Steffie hopes MC would just disappear forever. Amador questions why Steffie wants MC to disappear? Steffie explains and says that Ceci is still searching for MC and may just return to the hacienda to look again. Amador assures Steffie that MC won't go back there. Steffie asks why is that? Amador then tells her that MC is staying at Amador's apartment right now.

Thanks for the recap Jody. Another episode full of angst for our dear couple. Well at least Padre A knows where Mari is now and perhaps he'll be kind enough to let suffering Ceci know. I hope since Leo's in town he'll somehow get to testify at the trial. This could open up fun possibilities which won't remove my torment but could be amusing.

I'm wondering if Oneila will live. Though she isn't a murderess, as her dear daughter was, she is an awful person and horrible grandmother but I don't think these offenses warrant death in the novela handbook.
 

You're welcome, Karen.

I too hope Padre or helps poor Ceci out. Also, I hope Leo convinces Chuy to move out of Amador's den - the longer he hangs out with Steffie, the less I trust or like him. I don't think anything can be done with Nellie; she's a permanent resident in the castle de los locos.

Jody :)
 

Thank you so much, Jody! Aren’t you coconuts anymore? Coconuts was a cute handle, I thought, but eeyore is fun too.

They kept mentioning money tonight – or Mari’s lack of it, so I’m betting it’s going to figure in the plot very soon.

It seems like nobody knocks on a door with a few raps – they all pound away. Even Balbina knocking at JM’s study whams away multiple times.
 

Thanks, Jody! For some reason, I'm having trouble understanding the lawyers in the episodes, so I appreciate the recap. I don't know if I'm having trouble understanding them because they are using "lawyer terms" or if it is because the court room scenes are boring and I find myself drifting and not paying as close attention.

Is it just me or did anyone else think that the baby in this episode that Marichuy was carrying around in Amador's apartment looked like a different baby than before? Maybe the babies are only allowed to work so much on camera and they need to use different babies throughout the episode...or it's just my imagination!
 

Marie,

I had the same thought that the baby was a different one. The broadcast of last night's show was horrible technically; picture was very jumpy with the sound going in and out and the picture being distorted constantly, so I couldn't watch much of it. Thank God for the great recap!

I don't understand this courtoom stuff. Is this a civil trial or an actual criminal trial? Who cares anyway!?
 

Hi Caray bloggers,
I found out from my Spanish teacher last night that this Telenovela extents to 200+ episodes! Yipes! This episode is only about half way through. Evidently they wound up most of the first half villains and introduced a whole bunch more that were even worse. I guess they took a page from the U.S soaps that go on indefinitely. Dang! and here I am trying to catch up as fast as I can. (I'm at #40)
 

You know this is purely speculation but I seem to recall that when Leo was professing his love to Lirio that he said he will go where she goes and support her however he can.. I am interested to see how that plays out especially since Mari is planning on coming clean so to speak... I think they still may end up together...

Ditto on the Oneila front.. She sure seems to be shooting herself in the foot these days. It will be interesting to see where she ends up in the future.. There is always that villian that becomes a reformed saint at the end..

Looking forward to tonight. If no Mari/JM reunion at least the Lirio/leo reunion should be interesting.

I'm hoping for a Ceci/Marichuy reunion soon!
 

I am looking forward to that too.. I really hope that it isn't too painful to see though.

Jody, thank you for the recap.

Finally it seems like lots of stuff is about to happen. I'm glad JM know that Marichuy didn't rat him out and that Viv wasn't pregnant. I did sort of wonder why he was sitting around with Ed instead of at the courthouse, but I'm always happy to see Ed, so...

I was waiting for a scene where Marichuy goes into her new bedroom (Amador's old bedroom) and sees the giant portrait of himself he has hanging over the bed. Remember that? It would give her nightmares, I'm sure.
 

This is Amador's old apartment where MC is living? I didn't realize that, Julia. Where is he living now? What a playboy, bachelor pads everywhere...

I, also, am looking forward to the Ceci/MC meeting. I doubt it will be love at first sight though for MC as she is so bitter about her parents. I think she will warm up to Ceci eventually, but I think Patricio is another story. Did JM tell the lawyers about Viv not being pregnant? I wonder how long it will take for MC to know the truth, what episode 199??
 

I remember noticing last night that the baby's ears stuck out and I thought wow - I hadn't noticed that before. So maybe it IS a different baby..
 

Maggie, I'm interested to see where they go with this Marichuy's running out of money bit. If Amador doesn't get her a part and an income soon, will she:
a. return to doing laundry and odd jobs?
b. feel pressured to ask JM for help in order to meet the baby's needs (and let him know he has a son)?
c. have conflict when she finds out Ceci is her mother, because she won't want to forgive but could use help?
d. make up with Leo?
e. miraculously find papers (buried in a lunchbox, maybe, or in her own trunk which she's never bothered to look through) proving she's the rightful owner of a hacienda of her own, as long as she meets some ridiculous stipulations (wait, that's another show)?
f. go back to the old apartment and find the wedding rings she had flung on the floor, and sell them?

I do like that even when she's running low on money, she spends some to buy milk for the orphans, because she knows from experience how bottom-scraping the orphanage always is.
 

I also noticed that it appeared to be a new baby. What about that wolf hybrid that Amador used to have in his apt? I thought it would be there to guard the baby!!

Eeyore, Jody: Thank you. Lots of complicated stuff with those lawyers and judges. This show is wearing me out with all the near misses and potential for many more months of anguished misunderstanding.

Violet: "Where is he living now? What a playboy, bachelor pads everywhere..." I thought I heard him stay he was staying at his sister's place (but I could be wrong wrong wrong)
