Doña Bárbara, Weds., Jan., 14 - Dinner does not agree with Guerrero; DB take Marisela shopping

Guerrero accepts DB's invitation to provide a meal for him and his soldiers. She says that she will bring it to the hotel.

Santos is upset that Marisela wants to leave Altamira. Lorenzo says that he understands. Being here is just continued paid for Marisela.

The two terneras, Josefina and Melesia, ask Marisela to help them get the priest to perform their weddings.

Santos tells Melesio that he shouldn't let his granddaughters marry the rebels. Melesio says that if he didn't give permission, they would just run off anyway like Gervasia. He reminds Santos that everyone was against his getting together with DB.

Josefa comes to see DB to ask for the money that DB promised her for helping to kidnap Meléndez. She says that she is going to set up a competetor to the local whorehouse. DB says that she will give Josefa additional money if she promises to pass along any information she gets from drunk clientele.


Marisela, Josefa and Melesia to go see the Priest. At first he thinks they want to confess together but finally he understands that they want to keep the what they want to do as secret as a confession. Marisela tells him that if he doesn't agree to marry the terneras, they will escape with their lovers and live in sin.


Cecilia and Casilda are in Progresso. Cecilia faints from the heat and Antonio catches her.

DB loads up the truck and sends the cooked Meléndez with rice to town.

Antonio takes Cecilia to the doctor. While they wait for Dr. Arias to come in, he says that she will have his baby and he won't be there to take care of it or her because she married Lorenzo.

Cecilia comes out of the doctor's office and says that she is fine. It was just low blood sugar. Cecilia and Antonio kiss.

While she watched the soldiers eat, DB flashes back to all the bad things Melédez did. "You ended up the way you deserved, Melendez," says DB to herself. Once again, after the credits, the novela starts with DB in midsentence. When Guerrero thanks her for providing the meal, she says that she gets payback from those who do things to her. She tells Guerrero what his punishment is so he won't forget her. "It's no big deal, " she says, "just a little joke. Guerrero asks what she is saying. "Someone who hates me a lot calls me the 'man eater' ("la devoradora de hombres"). But it seems that I am not the only one. Because you and your men just ate the biggest, most disgusting pig in the world - your boss - Colonel Mélendez." Guerrero says that she must be lying. DB days that she never lies. She tells him to think about accusing her of anything because it would be her word against his and the evidence of the cadaver is in his and his men's bellies. Guerrero runs outside to puke. "Bon appetit, Captain!" says DB.

Cecilia asks Antonio to forgive her. He leaves without replying.

Santos yells at DB for feeding the soldiers. DB says that he is supposed to be so much more civilized and Christian than her. It's she who supposedly can't forgive her enemies. Santos tells her that he can't forgive Meléndez after what he did to her and to Marisela. DB says that it is always Marisela with Santos. DB says that S is obsessed with Marisela. Santos brings up the fact that Marisela confessed to something that she didn't do to save him. DB says that everyone is always saying how great Marisela is and how bad DB is. She is fed up. If her daughter messes with her man, she will defend him. She wants Marisela to go far away. Santos brings up DB's promise to give Marisela La Barquereña and she says that she will.

DB sends for terneras and Marisela to try and promote Gonzalo's suit. DB says that she is just supporting Marisela. Santos is upset with DB for pushing Gonzalo on Marisela. He says that what is doing is called procuring (alcahuetear). Santos criticized her before for not caring about her daughter. Now that she has changed and wants to support her daughther and win her affection, he is still criticizing her? Santos says that she knows that Marisela's happines is not at Gonzalo's side. "Where is it, then? At your side?" says DB, "Do you feel happy seeing her suffer because the man she loves is the husband of her mother?"

DB invites Marisela to go to San Fernando with her to buy clothes for her birthday.

Antonio tells the rebels that he will go with them to the frontier to make sure that nothing bad happens to them.

Santos comes to Mujiquita to draft a document transfering La Barquereña from DB to Marisela.

DB asks what Marisela is going to do once she is 18. Marisela says that she would like to leave and see other places. DB urges her to marry Gonzalo.

Thanks for the summary Jean ;) The look on Guerrero's face when DB told him he'd just eaten his predecessor was priceless ;)
 

I didn't realize I'd posted that one. It's not really finished.
 

That DB is one sick chick! I still can't believe she did that...

I cleaned it up.
I know what you mean, jb. When DB went to the trouble of freezing Meléndez' body, I thought she must have some devious plan in mind but having Guerrero eat his commander's body has just made her another enemy in the Capital. I wonder if Guerrero will encounter Sapo and this whole business will have consequences for DB?
