En Nombre de Amor, July 22, 2009
Romina is calling Paloma on her cell phone, but she tells her mom that she is not answering. Camila offers to call Macarena.
Carlota questions Macarena if she bought Paloma the cell phone. Macarena asks her what she is talking about. Carlota says you know what I am talking about. The phone rings and Carlota goes to answer it. Camila asks to talk to Macarena. Carlota tells her that she is sick and then Camila asks to talk to Paloma. You can't responds Carlota and hangs up the phone. The doorbell rings and it's Rufi who tells Camila and Romina that Carlota broke Paloma's phone. Paloma cannot go tonight because Carlota locked her in her room. Romina gets pissed. Rufi asks Romina to tell Inaki that Paloma cannot come.
Paloma looks out the window and Romina is outside asking her what's up. Paloma asks Romina to tell Inaki that she cares for him. And also to forgive her, she really wanted to be there tonight. She looks at a photo of them and says that she really wanted to see him tonight. And after this, she knows that she will lose him.
Rafael comes home and Diana says finally you are home. He asks her what's wrong honey. She says don't call me honey after what you did today. What did I do questions Rafael? Did you send Camila flowers asks Diana? Rafael tells her after all that Camila did, it was the least I could do. Why didn't you tell me that she was helping you or that you were going to send her flowers questions Diana? Because you don't care about anything regarding the factory. I have asked you for your opinions and advice, but you don't care. So don't get onto me for seeking it somewhere else.
Inaki tries to call Paloma, but she is not answering. He tells Emiliano that Paloma is the one for him. She is different. Romina comes in and Inaki asks her where Paloma and his Tia Macarena are. She tells Inaki to look for another girlfriend, because with her evil Tia it just isn't going to work.
The doctor has come to see to Macarena and tells her that her blood sugar was up. Macarena says, but I have been taking my medication. He tells her to give it more time for her body to adjust. Carlota goes to see him out. Macarena tells Rufi to tell Paloma to come see her. She feels bad for ruining her night. Rufi says she cannot come, because Carlota punished her. Macarena wants to go see Paloma, but Rufi tells her that Carlota locked her in her room.
Carlota tells the doctor that she is really worried about her sister. He comments on how caring she is. She smiles at his praise, but frowns when he says that it is his pleasure to serve her. But more importantly her sister. Carlota sees him to the door.
Macarena comes into Paloma's room. What happened asks Macarena. Paloma tells her that Carlota found her talking on the cell phone to Inaki, broke her phone, slapped her and locked her in her room. Carlota comes in having overheard there conversation since they do not know how to close the door. Anyway Carlota says she'll do it again if she is disrespectful again. Carlota tells Macarena that they need to have a serious conversation.
Inaki asks Romina if her aunt is crazy. Romina says of course and will be until the day she dies. I don't know how Paloma can live with that witch. If it were me, I would tell her where to go. Emiliano says how can you say that? She has lived this way all her life. She is a minor still in school. She has no one else. Inaki says he cannot just stand there with his arms cross. German walks up with Liliana. Romina asks him what he is doing here with her.
Carlota gets onto Macarena and Paloma regarding the cell phone. They both know that cell phones are prohibited in the house. And Paloma has not only lied to me, but has also disrespected me. And you know that I will not allow that. Macarena tells Carlota that it does not give her the right to break her cell phone or hit her. Are you defending her questions Carlota? Yes replies Macarena. So you want her to teach her to lie? To let her be like one of those loose women that both you and I know asks Carlota. Paloma yells out that Macarena only wants the best for her. Carlota tells her to be quiet. Macarena tells Carlota that Paloma has the right to live. To get to know boys and have friends. To have fun. Carlota tells her that can happen when Paloma is an adult. Right now she needs guidance and direction. Paloma tells Carlota that she will be legally an adult soon and can do what she wants. And that's no sin. Carlota responds back saying when you prove you are an adult then we'll talk. But in the meantime you must obey the rules. Macarena yells out your rules and rules that we are not in agreement with. Carlota says I take care of this house. Here you have food and a roof over your heads. All this with the money my father left me. You both should be glad for all the things I have done for you. You are ungrateful. She pretends to choke up with tears and tells Macarena to go to her room to rest.
Inaki tells Emiliano that he wants to see Paloma. Emiliano thinks he can get her into more trouble, but German agrees with Inaki. When you care about someone, sometimes you make dumb decisions (looking at Romina while saying this).
Romina asks what she did to come with German. Liliana tells her that German called her. He is so handsome and I have always liked him. Romina tells her not to get to excited, because he must have had other plans and they fell through. He's really not that into her. Liliana tells her not to be jealous. Men also like her and acknowledge her. She's not the only one. German walks up and starts caressing Liliana's cheek. Romina gets up and silently tells German to follow her.
In the bathroom Romina questions German as to why he brought Liliana. He tells her it's none of her business. Romina says you brought her because you knew I could not stand her and wouldn't introduce you to anyone. German finally accepts that she is novios with Emiliano and he has to look elsewhere. Anyway I really like her. More than me questions Romina. Maybe replies German. Romina tells him fine, go out with her. Compare her to me. And then you will realize that he will not be able to forget her that easily. You will repent and accept the offer I gave you. And do you know why? Because no one can kiss you like I can. And she proceeds to show him. German tells her that she is driving him crazy and they get interrupted by a knock on the bathroom door.
Camila sits on her bed looking at a photo of her and her ex-husband. We get a flashback to there wedding night. She tears up the picture and starts crying.
Paloma is in bed crying. Carlota is in bed reading and hears dogs barking. Inaki is climbing up to Paloma's balcony. He knocks loudly on the door and Paloma gets up to answer it. She tells him to forgive her. He tells her he cares for her and she does the same. He kisses her. Paloma hears her aunt coming and comes back inside. Carlota walks in and turns on the light. Paloma has a guilty look on her face.
Carlota asks Paloma what's wrong? Paloma tells her that a dog was barking. Emiliano, Romina, German and Liliana drive up and see Inaki dangling from the balcony. Carlota asks Paloma if she is sure that a dog was bothering her. Yes replies Paloma. Paloma tells Carlota that she wants peace. Carlota tells her that she has always been a difficult child to control and because of her parents are dead. And I don't want my sister to suffer the same fate because of you. Paloma says if I am rebellious it is because you don't understand me. I just want to live a normal life just like girls my age. But you don't let me do anything. Carlota says all you want to do is run. But that comes with consequences. Girls today are very free and the boys only want them to pass the time. But the real men look for decent girls to marry. Because I want to have some fun and be with my friends doesn't mean that I will allow that to happen to me replies Paloma. That's because you have learned that from living here replies Carlota. Where there are rules. You have to be honest with me.
Outside the gang is helping Inaki down. Paloma goes out and tells Inaki that she cares for him. He throws her a kiss. The gang gets into the car and Carlota hears them in her room and walks to the window. She spots them all getting into the car.
Romina is not happy having to leave the bar early. Emiliano says that happens sometimes. Romina comments on how romantic Inaki was and wonders if he can do the same. Emiliano comments that Inaki is whipped. And after the way Paloma was raised for her to have such strong feeling for Inaki. There are many that care for her and that includes you replies Romina. And you asks Emiliano. Are you not happy that Inaki cares for Paloma? Yes, but not you. Emiliano asks her where she is getting at. I'm just telling you not to lay eyes on her or anyone else. Because I am capable of killing you.
Diana threatens Rafael that if he sends Camila flowers or any woman again, he will lose her. Rafael says get over it. They argue and he leaves to go sleep in the living room.
German walks Liliana to her door. Liliana comments that Romina wants to be with him. German says that Romina does not want anything with him because she is Emiliano's girlfriend and I am his friend is that clear? Fine says Liliana. Do you like me? German says he likes her and they kiss.
Rufi tries to get Macarena to eat breakfast. Macarena tells Rufi that she could not sleep last night because of the dog barking and noises outside. Rufi tells her all that happen last night. Macarena tells Rufi that she thinks that Carlota knows of Inaki. She says Camila told her to tell the truth, but Rufi says it's better to keep quiet. When Paloma is of legal age and if they are still together then tell Carlota.
Paloma starts to write a letter to Inaki. Sweet music plays.
Inaki tells the maid that his mother will be coming today. And to prepare a fabulous meal. The maid asks if his mother's boyfriend is coming, but he doesn't know. He leaves and she picks up the phone to call Carlota.
Carlota comes in Paloma's room. She tells her that she will not lock her in, but she is punished and cannot leave the house. Only for church on Sunday. Paloma finishes her letter to Inaki.
Macarena tells Paloma that Rufi told her everything that happened last night with Inaki. Rufi says that it was so romantic. I couldn't help myself. I had to tell Macarena. Paloma asks Macarena if she is well enough to help her make cookies. Macarena says of course the cookies for your mother-in-law. Paloma asks Rufi if she can take the cookies to Inaki's house along with a letter.
Inaki greets his mother at the airport. She wants to know where his girlfriend is. He tells her he will explain on the way home. Just know that I am crazy in love. Although the relationship will not be easy, but I will fight for her. I want to be with her and no one will keep us apart.
Romina sees the destroyed tape of her parents wedding. Camila tells her there was no reason for her to keep it. Romina asks her why her dad left. Camila tells her she doesn't know. Romina says all I remember is you guys fighting. Perhaps if you were nicer. Camila asks her why she always blames her for the breakup. A relationship takes two. Romina says I wonder why he left and never came back. What did you do? Camila tells her to mind her own business. Romina tells her that she will never allow her husband to do that to her. Her husband will love her and her kids. Camila says I hope so. I want you to be happy.
Emiliano asks his dad Rafael why he's sleeping on the couch. Rafael says because I sent Camila flowers as a thank you for helping me. Emiliano says that shows that she cares for him. He doesn't want to talk about his problems with Diana with him. He is there son.
Macarena, Paloma and Rufi are baking cookies and having a food fight. Lots of laughter and Carlota hears this and comes into the kitchen. What is going on she asks. We are making cookies replies Macarena. You should be in bed says Carlota. You were very sick yesterday. And now you are throwing flour around and acting like a kid. You should be more responsible. The doctor told you to take care of yourself. She gets onto Paloma and wants them to clean up the mess. She walks out. The food fight and laughter continues. The maid calls Carlota and lets her know that Inaki's mother comes in today from Spain.
Inaki and his mom arrive at the house. Rufi comes up to him and introduces herself. She tells him that Paloma wanted her to bring him the cookies she made for his mother and also brought a letter from her. He asks her to wait so that he can give her a response back.
Paloma is waiting for Rufi's return and Carlota asks her what she is doing. Paloma says I thought I saw the doctor pull up, but I was wrong. Carlota says okay and walks away. Rufi comes in with a letter for Paloma. She starts to read it, but Carlota pulls it out of her hand. Carlota reads the letter out loud. "Mi amor. I do not care if I have to climb up to your window each night just so I can see you. You are the woman of my life." Carlota calls her disgraceful and says you have a secret love just like your mother. My mother asks Paloma. Yes. You are the same as her responds Carlota. Macarena yells at Carlota to shut up.
Tomorrow: Paloma asks Carlota what she meant by her comment regarding her mother.
Labels: amor
Reluctant props to Carlota for ferreting out spies at every possible location. First the restaurant, now Inaki's home.
Hated the scene when Carlota swept into the kitchen and Rufi, Mac and Paloma scattered like frightened birds. Where was the pluck and fortitute Mac exhibited only a day or so ago?
What a lovely place for Rominia and Germ's tryst - the bathroom. How romantic...
At last Paloma gets a clue to one of the many secrets in Carlota's house of horrors.
Diana in MA
For some reason Romina is bothering me almost more than Carlota. Carlota we knew from jump street was going to be a really evil villain. Maybe because I raised my son virtually alone Romina's ungrateful behavior toward her mother drives me nuts. My son (now an adult) has done the reverse, giving me heartfelt thanks for all I did and never blamed me for his father's apparent disinterest in his child.
Lately every time Romina appears I feel like slapping her. Talk about a dog in the manger. She couldn't stand German even dating someone else. Every kind look or word Emiliano gives to Paloma makes her scowl with jealousy. Of course, we know Pal and Em have a future together; but so far there has been nothing in his behavior to cause this ridiculous obsessive jealousy.
And Diana is another one! Someone else commented about her reading the card that came with the flowers. I can't even IMAGINE someone doing that, opening up someone else's envelope like that. I knew she'd discover the flowers as soon as she came into the store, but I thought she'd weasel it out of Camila.
Really enjoy Iñaki and his mother's Spanish accents.
Ann-NYC
PS -- Great recap, Gloria...Thanks.
How convenient that Pal was wearing that virginal white lingerie set last night instead of teenager pjs when Inaki and the others saw her on the balcony. I don't think Romi caught the entranced look on Emilio'ss face or she would be beyond her usual jealous self. GinCA
