Doña Barbara, Mon. Apr. 13 - Marisela still thinks DB is crazy; Santos still thinks DB is pregnant but soon everyone will know that Geno is pregnant

Santos orders DB to leave Altamira. He says that he doesn't want her there behaving like it is her house and giving orders. Marisela tells him that he doesn't understand. When Santos goes to order the truck to carry DB and her stuff back to El Miedo, Marisela goes after him.

Gonzalo repeats to Facundo that he and Sapo are only business associates, nothing more. He tells Facundo that he doesn't want either of them coming to his office any more. If they have to meet, it will be someone where no one knows them.

Don Encarnación screams at Antonio and Cecilia. He accuses them of having been lovers while Lucía was alive. When Antonio tries to appease him by saying that Cecilia is helping to take care of the baby, DE swears that he will take the baby away from Antonio on the grounds that he is an unfit father.

Pajarote tries to talk to Genoveva. He denies that anything happened when he was naked in the shower with Celeste. He tells Geno that since he has been with her, his "friend" hasn't performed at all. He obviously thinks this will please Geno but it doesn't. She says that all he seems to want to offer women is sex but she wants more. She wants a man who will talk to her about his feelings, about his love. "Juan Palacios," says Geno, "if you ever think of me, remember me as the only woman on your list who called you by your name, not Pajarote."

Marisela tells Santos that she can't believe he is throwing DB out.

Melquíades confirms to DB that El Miedo is ready for her return but DB says that she isn't going. Eustaquia says that is crazy. "Precisely," says DB, "I'm crazy and crazy people do crazy things."

Marisela asks Santos if he feels any pity for DB. Santos says no. He believes she is faking the whole crazy thing to get Marisela to feel sorry for her. Marisela replies that she doesn't care if DB is pretending. DB is her mother and she is suffering. "She will drag us down with her," says Santos, "Is that what you want?"

Antonio asks Cecilia if she thinks DE will carry out his threats to try and take his granddaughter from Antonio. Cecilia says that DE loved Lucía very much and he is in terrible pain. She says that such grief can turn to hate and hate can blind the best human beings.

Eustaquia tells DB that her charade of being pregnant can't continue indefintely. DB doesn't think that Marisela will tell Santos that she lost the baby because Marisela feels sorry for DB. Eustaquia says that it isn't pity that Marisela feels; it's love and DB is wasting it. Once again, DB tells Eustaquia that her feeling as a woman take precedence over her feelings as a mother.

Santos tells Marisela that having DB at Altamira is driving him crazy because she is always there between them. Marisela replies that she is engaged to another man and doesn't want anything to do with Santos so DB isn't coming between them. Santos says that is a lie. He knows that Marisela still loves him. When Santos says that he can't continue living with such torture, Marisela says that she will go and live with DB at El Miedo.

When Antonio tells Cecilia that she doesn't have to stay and take care of the baby, she says that made a promise to Lucía that she would care for the baby and furthermore, she doesn't want to be away from Antonio when he is suffering so much. She says that the most important things in her life are her child, Lucía's baby and Antonio.

Marisela tells Santos that in his house there is a sick old woman and a woman who is not right in the head and all he can think about are the kisses Marisela won't give him. Marisela says that Santos knows that she loves him but she is fed up with him because he won't recognize that DB needs them. Santos acknowledges his responsibility to DB's baby. He will do whatever is necesary to make DB and Eustaquia comfortable at El Miedo. Marisela replies that the worst thing Santos can do is throw DB out of Altamira. Santos capitulates.

Pajarote is drinking and feeling sorry for himself. María Nieves comes looking for him to help build the houses. Pajarote says that he doesn't feel like working today. He tells MN that he is done with Genoveva. She can leave if she wants to. He won't be tamed like the others. MN says that his woman tamed him with lots of love and he is very happy about it. He leaves Pajarote to his bottle and his rage.

Geno gives Melesio her speech about wanting to be more than a cook. He says that she is the smartest of the terneras and can do what she wants. He says that everything would be fine if it weren't for her sad eyes. Geno says that is because she was chopping onions. Melesio says that she must have been chopping onions every day because she is always sad. Melesio says that he will go to San Fernando with her so he can help Antonio with his grief, see his great granddaughter and see where and how Geno is going to live.

Carmelito tells the other ternera husbands that Genoveva is pregnant with Pajarote's baby. Mujica is listening (and taking notes).

In return for letting DB stay at Altamira, Santos asks Marisela to do him a favor and not bring Gonzalo to Altamira. DB overhears and says that she has to do something since the situation is getting dangerous between Santos and Marisela.

DB has Melquíades send for Gonzalo to come to El Miedo that night.

Mujica exchanges his gossip about Geno's pregnancy for sex with Federica.

Eustaquia says that Marisela looks sad. She drops some big hints that DB isn't really crazy.

Gonzalo tells Antonio that he will arrange for lawyers to defend him if DE tries to take custody of the baby. He also tells Antonio that he will be in charge while Gonzalo goes to a convention at the beach.

Melesio tells Genoveva that there is no need to talk when there is love as strong as theirs. He says that when she feels really lonely, she has this old man who loves her the most. Geno says that she knows this.

Pajarote flashes back to some of his encounters with Genoveva. Then he gets up and says that he will find someone who really cares about him.

Juan Primito tells Marisela that he is sad because she is not going to marry Santos and Santos is a good person who eats mangoes with him and talks to him. Marisela agrees that Santos is a good person but she isn't going to marry him.

Federica tells Mujica that she is going to tell everyone about Genoveva's pregnancy even though she promised him she wouldn't.

Eustaquia wants to talk to Santos. She says that she knows that she and DB are not welcome at Altamira. Santos replies that it isn't her, it's DB and if it weren't for her pregnancy... "Oh Don Santos," says Eustaquia, "if only you knew..." Santos presses her but Eustaquia won't say any more.

DB's cheery dinner conversation about Marisela and Gonzalo drives Marisela from the table. Santos follows her. When they are gone, DB says to herself that she will resolve this situation tonight.

DB returns to El Miedo for the first time since the attack. Her lazy employees are ready to take credit for putting El Miedo back to the way it was but DB says that she knows it was the Altamira folks who did that. Gonzalo arrives but he is annoyed that DB has summoned him so peremptorily but he is glad that she isn't crazy any more. DB makes nice until she pulls a gun on him. She tells him that she knows he is involved with her enemy, Sapo. He asks what she wants. She replies that she wants to be his partner. She advises him not to try and and betray her. She had other partners who thought they were smarter than she was and they ended up very badly.

Melesio comes to the hospital and sees Cecilia taking care of Antonio's baby.

Pajarote goes to see Federica. She is glad to see him again but calls him, 'Daddy' (Papacito). He asks why she calls him that and she says it is because he is going to be a daddy.

Santos walks in on Marisela in the bubble bath.

He says that he can't help himself. He kisses her.

DB tells Gonzalo that if he really wants Marisela, he has to get her out of Altamira and marry her right away.

Thanks Jean, enjoyed the bubble bath photos.

I'm finding it difficult to believe that Marisela would hold on to feeling sorry for DB for so long. The telenovelas seem to show the heroines as totally selfless, all forgiving and willing to sacrifice their happiness. IMO this makes them look like people pleasing, needy, codependants.

Sending DB back to her own house isn't cruel. Marisela is being cruel by living in the same house and expecting everyone to tolerate DB's behavior. Marisela is using this as an excuse to not be with Santos. Guess she'd better start looking forward to those asco kisses...

Thanks, Jean. Great photos and recap.

I was SO loving DB holding a gun on Gonzalo. That actor does a lot with facial expressions without saying a word. She definitely got her message across when she told him others thought they were smarter than DB, but ended up worm food (well, she didn't exactly say that, but I got the message!)

Federica really is intolerable. That's another good actress because I long to slap her every time I see her face. Hopefully Pajarito will finally understand what she's talking about tonight.

The scenes with Marisela and Santos are getting repetitive. He keeps saying he loves her and knows she loves him. She keeps saying it cannot be, which as jb said makes no sense. Maybe the bathtub scene will move this along a bit!
