En Nombre del Amor, August 12, 2009

Carlota recalls comments made by Inaki and Paloma while she is making her special tea.

Impatient Inaki gets checked out by the doctor.

Orlando and Emilano talk about Inaki and Paloma. Orlando can't believe that after running away together that Inaki and Paloma would end up in the hospital. They go into Emiliano's office to continue the conversation. Emilano tells Orlando that his advice about Paloma being far away is for the best in regards to his feelings for her. Having her near by just confuses him. He feels that he is deceiving Inaki when he thinks about Paloma. Orlando asks him if it's love or an obsession that he has with Paloma. He says both. He feels if he can't be with her then it cannot happen with anyone else. Orlando tells Emiliano that he met a woman (Camilla).

Rafael is packing. Diana asks him what he is doing. He tells her that he is leaving. She says that if he leaves the house, he cannot come back. He says that you don't love me anymore perhaps never have, so what's the point in staying. Diana says we are married and have a family. Rafael says that I loved you completely and accepted you without conditions. We got married quickly, but I think I was your only option. Diana says you promised to provide for me and would never leave me. Rafael tells her that he is just giving her freedom. Diana is all concerned about what other people would say. Rafael tells her who cares, you don't have to explain anything. Do you want me to stay? Diana doesn't comment.

Macarena is feeding Paloma jello. Paloma comments that sometimes she thinks that Macarena is her mother. Macarena says why do you say that? Because I love you like one replies Paloma. Inaki shows up and apologizes for the accident. Macarena leaves and Paloma tells him that it wasn't his fault. Inaki offers to stay in Real del Monte if she wants. She tells him that all she wants is to stay with him. He gets up from his wheelchair and kisses her.

Angelica and Romina talk about Paloma and Romina's academic problems. Angelica will have to talk to her mother and Romina cannot attend any classes. Romina runs out and gets into a shoving/shouting match with Liliana. The nuns and Angelica come out to break it up.

Carlota comes into Paloma's room. She tells Paloma and Inaki that she will give her permission for them to get married. Paloma replies that she doesn't believe her. She believes that Carlota is playing a trick on her. Carlota responds that Paloma is insulting her, but Macarena sticks up for her. Paloma tells Carlota that Macarena told her that she was going to have an investigation started in her bad guardian treatment of Paloma and that is why she is doing this. Carlota says that she made a mistake and realizes that nothing will interfere with Inaki and her plans to be together.

Joel and Camila talk about the factory. Camila tells him that her attorney told her it was a bad idea to invest, but she is going to do it anyway. Her only condition is that no one finds out she is the one investing in the company. The phone rings and it's the school about Romina.

Carlota tells Paloma that there is no point in fighting because in a couple of months she would be 18 and can do whatever she wants. She doesn't want Paloma to be completely out of her life. Macarena says I have been telling you this all along. Carlota replies that she has changed her mind about Inaki and Paloma. Inaki tells Carlota that they have plans to move to Madrid. Carlota says that there is no reason, but eventually agrees. She just wants Paloma to finish school here first. She wants things done right without pressure and doesn't want to lose her family. They can get married tomorrow if they want. Paloma asks if she's sure. Carlota pleads for a chance to prove herself.

Rafael looks for a room in a hotel.

Diana calls Emiliano to tell him that his father abandoned her. He asks her what happened. A fight? I don't know he wants a divorce. He probably has another woman replies Diana. Emiliano leaves work to go to her.

Mother Superior, another nun and Angelica are telling Camila what happened. Of course spoiled brat Romina says it's not fair that they let Liliana go without calling her mother. Mother Superior says that if she wasn't in a much trouble as she is in now, then the same would have happened to her as Liliana. Just a suspension. Camila asks what does she mean. Mother Superior says regarding her grades. Camila says that she doesn't get them til the end of the week, but Angelica pipes up and says that they were given out last week. She asked Romina to tell her mother to come talk to her so that she can give it to her personally. But she didn't do it. Camila asks what's wrong with her grades. Angelica says that she is failing 5 classes and Mother Superior adds that with Romina's bad behavior she can no longer come back. Camila is muy impactada.

Liliana goes to see Emiliano to tell him that Romina admitted to her that she slept with German. Emiliano tells her that he doesn't have time for this, he has to go. Liliana says that some girls at school had photos, but Romina bought them first before she could. Emiliano says if you don't have the photos then it means to me that it never existed. You don't have proof and I really don't care.

Macarena and the doctor are meeting up to talk about her test results. Carlota comes up to them asking what the results were. The doctor says that the results did not come back as he thought they would. Are you injecting yourself everyday he asks Macarena. Yes, religiously responds Macarena. Well the results show that one day you do and then 3 days later you do it again. Carlota asks him what can we do? He tells them that he will put her on another medication and hopefully it will give him the results he is looking for.

Inaki tells Paloma that everything that Carlota said sounded good. Although the change in her attitude seems a little strange. Paloma agrees, but makes in convient for them. They don't have to run away. They can do things the proper way. Inaki asks Paloma about the house that she grew up in. What happened. Paloma tells him that Carlota had to sell it because of the mortgage on it. Inaki wants her to show it to him. Why asks Paloma? It's a surprise. Do you remember the attorney how handled your case? Why asks Paloma. It will be easier for you to get a grant for school if we can prove that you have no money. Paloma comments about how excited she is to have a purpose or a road to walk now. Paloma also wants to wait til she is 18 and out of school before getting married now that there is no objection from Carlota in getting married. Then they can go to Spain.

Emiliano asks Diana if his dad said that there was another woman. No replies Diana, but it's obvious. No responds Emiliano. There could be other reasons. I am going to talk to him. Diana says why, he wants nothing to do with me. He needs to explain replies Emiliano. Diana cries on that she doesn't deserve this.

Rafael is hanging up clothes in his room and the phone rings. It's Emiliano. Rafael tells him that they have to talk. They agree to meet up at a restaurant.

Camila and Romina get home with Camila getting onto Romina. You had your grades last week to give me, but didn't because you wanted your party. Romina says that she was going to tell her at the end of the week, but after all that is going with Paloma she never got the chance. Camilla reminds her that she promised to do better in school. Romina says that she tried really hard, but school is not for her. Camila says that she has abused her love and all that she wanted to give her. Now things are going to change. You will now have limits. Your liberty and lies have now ended. If you want anything then you will have to earn them. The first is having to complete school. Romina tells her that she wasn't born to be a student. Then what were you born for? You don't like school and don't like to work. It doesn't matter replies Romina because you are rich. I have just turned 18 and will inherit the money my grandparents left me. I have no problems. Camila replies that in this life money is not forever. You have to learn to manage it and maintain it. You have to be a productive person, understand that! Today you have it and the next it's gone! That is why you have to prepare! Romina tells her mother that she has people to do that and she'll have the same too. Camila replies back that she is not prepared at all! Tomorrow we are going back to the school and you are going to ask for forgiveness. You will go back to school and study hard, because I want you to graduate. I don't want to replies Romina. You have no other choice yells Camila. Romina reminds Camila that she cannot make her do anything now that she is 18. She will contact her attorney to give her her money ASAP. So that she can leave this house and look for her dad and stomps up the stairs to her room. Camila is like oh hell no that little girl didn't just talk to me that way. Or she should be saying that to herself if she isn't.

The doctor says that she can go home and he would be the one taking care of her. He will be there everyday to check on her. Paloma doesn't look happy, but Macarena is happy that she is coming home tomorrow. She tells the doctor that she is in his debt.

Rafael and Emiliano are at a restaurant talking. Rafael can't believe that Diana told Emiliano that all this happened because of another woman. He says things were bad and you knew that. Emiliano says yes, but not so grave. Rafael says that Diana thought by Emiliano returning home all there problems would be fixed. But that did not happened and she finally realizes that. What happened then asks Emiliano. Rafael reminds him that he is there child and the problems are only between the husband and wife. He says that the love died and so did the tranquility. Your mother thinks of me as mediocre a good for nothing. When did she tell you this asks Emiliano. When I told her that the factory will be closing. Emiliano says but you never told me. I was going to tell you at the end of the week, but haven't had the chance. All I have left is dignity. What if my mother asked for your forgiveness replies Emiliano. That would never happened responds Rafael.

Inaki wants to know if Paloma wants to him to stay with her until she gets discharged. Paloma comments that she is scared that Carlota will retract her promise to accept them and their upcoming marriage. Macarena tells Paloma to give Carlota one more chance to prove herself. Inaki says we can always change our plans if we have too.

Natalia is talking to a lady who knew Paloma's parents and she assures Natalia that they had money. One of Javier's sister has all the money. Sorlaio told me that there daughter's future was secured. Natalia says I have to tell Inaki all this.

Inaki is on the phone telling Emiliano that he has suspicions about Carlota's dealings with Paloma inheritance. Emiliano hangs up and Romina runs in saying that she cannot live with her mother anymore.

Carlota is at a store buying belladonna, but wants double this time. Acardia spots her and asks her friend what is Carlota buying. Her friend tells her that it's belladonna. Used for fun and relaxing. But if you use to much you will fall asleep....forever.

Romina tells Emiliano that she swears that she was going to tell her mother everything at the end of the week, but everything with Paloma happened. Emiliano says to Romina that you did the party anyway knowing that you couldn't have it if you did not do good in your exams. I agree with your mother. You need to finish school and afterwards if you don't want to advance your education then it's your decision. Go fix things with her. She is a wonderful mother. It is very sad living with constant fighting. Romina takes the focus off her and asks him if something is going on in his family. Emiliano says that his parents are fighting, but he hopes that it will be resolved soon. Romina thanks Emiliano for listening and says that she is also determined to find her father. Romina asks him to find her a private detective.

Orlando comes to visit Camila who had been crying. They talk about there roles as parents. He tells her not to take it so bad.

Emiliano visits his old nanny and gives her grandson a new soccor outfit. Her grandson wants to know if he can play in a tournament. I can't replies Emiliano. I have to attend my friend's wedding.

Paloma has her wedding gown fitting with Macarena and Rufi doing the adjusting. In comes Carlota with the wedding vail. Paloma tries it on and is so excited. Hugs for everyone. Carlota tells Paloma that it's time for Inaki and his parents to formally ask for Paloma's hand in marriage. Macarena doesn't think it a good idea due the fact that Inaki's parents: a) do not get along well and b) Inaki's dad is against the whole thing and thinks he is making a mistake.
Carlota says it's important for her that things are done properly. Paloma relents and tells Carlota that she will call Inaki and tell him to have his parents come over for dinner so that he can officially offer for her the why Carlota wants.

Inaki and the lawyer sit down in which he finds out from the attorney that the house never had a mortgage on it. And all funds, decisions were made by Carlota. Inaki looks at it all and says she has a fortune. Another thing she also has 2 bank accounts and a life insurance policy. Inaki cannot believed it. Who has the money, asks Inaki. The guardian of her estate, Carlota. Inaki says this whole time Paloma has had money and Carlota has been lying to her. If you have seen what I have seen replies the attorney, family members will do anything for money.

Carlota is making her special tea/drink/malta.

Tomorow: Joel tells Rafael that he has found an investor; Romina begs Emiliano to get back with her; Carlota serves Inaki her special drink/malta

Gloria, just finished reading your recap and enjoyed it immensely.

There are so many mean and vicious characters in this novela. They make me so furious but it's what makes it so good and keeps me coming back for more.

Thanks for such a speedy recap.

Ann-NYC
 

Thanks for the recap, Gloria. I feel the anvils about to fall on poor Paloma and her beau. If Carlota is being nice, run kids run. This woman kills animals with no remorse. And harming animals is one of the things serial killers do.
 

Gloria: A wonderful, thorough recap. You covered everything so well. Thank you for pointing out Emiliano's nanny - I couldn't figure out who the character was although he obviously cares for her. Her identity probably had been mentioned previously, but I missed it.

Was anyone else surprised Rafael didn't tell Emiliano he was leaving, or at least tell him right after it happened? Leaving E to find out himself and receive Di's very slanted and distorted take on things was unexpected considering Rafael's and E's relationship.

I thought Rafael's and Di's conversation hinted at a major plot issue but I'm reluctant to say anything as it may be a spoiler.

Ro is so spoiled and selfish and does not deserve Camila as a mother.

If only Carlota had meant it when she gave Paloma her veil. Pal looked absolutely beautiful and glowed.

Karen, I can't believe you mentioned that killing animals is the sign of a serial killer. I thought the same thing myself last night. I was waiting to see if she'd take her anger out yet again on one of the poor, hapless (and very few) remaining birds.

I'm fearing the coming celebration is going to turn out to be dreadful. Ack.

Diana in MA
 

Ohhhh, I hope the previews are misleading and Carlota isn't really going to poison her dinner guests. Something's got to stop them from drinking, right? Right?

Thank you for the great recap.
 

Thank you for the recap Gloria. I'm learning Spanish, and I find it a good practice to watch the telenovela. It's quite engrossing, the characters and all, but I have troubles to follow the language a lot of times. Your recap is a great help.
 

Every time Diana is on the screen I just want to smack her. Her husband leaves and her only concern is what her friends will think? Nice.

How can Rafael afford to stay in what looked like a pretty nice hotel if he has major money problems?
 

Thank you so much Gloria for detailing this great episode!

Once again the writing was terrific. I really liked how the writers developed the scene where Rafa was leaving Diana. Lots of nice hints about the beginnings of their marriage and what led up to it, but just teasers so far. And the way they clarified their marriage – escape and convenience for her, true love for him. And then they showed her worldview, or at least marriageview, in which she thought it was some sort of legal arrangement. She really doesn’t get the love and support part.

I liked too that Rafa offered her the chance to try again and she didn’t say no, but she didn’t take him up on it.

I’m thinking Rafa didn’t tell Emiliano because he felt that children shouldn’t be burdened with their parents’ relationship issues. Pretty darned decent of him and it shows where Emiliano got his decency.

Speaking of Emiliano’s decency, I liked that he blew Liliana and her revelations off. He really is not interested at all in Romina, but she keeps coming back like a bad cheeefaseburger.

The acting was great straight through too. We may all hate Carlota, but the actress (Leticia Calderon) is doing a splendid job with her part.
 

Thanks for the recap Gloria. Diana in MA we love you. :) Diana in ENDA, definitely, she is irritating. Her and Romina should be together. I think Camila should trade Romina to Diana for Emiliano with an ex-husband to be named later. :)

Julia, yes, I worry about Inaki tonight. I don't think Cruel would do anything with Pal because I think she wants to keep her to continue to torture her in whatever ways she can... and she is the main heroine. :) I was wondering if the belladonna is what Cruel keeps giving to Mac? If it is, Mac may be developing an immunity to it.. ala .. Princess Bride and iocane powder. At least, I can hope. :)

JeffMN
 

Thanks, Gloria, very thorough and well done recap.

The avances sure looked like Carlota gives Iñaki the belladonna in a wine glass. But how could she do that and get away with it? There has to be another twist. If he fell over foaming at the mouth after she served him a drink, or even died later that night, all suspicion would fall on Cruelota, especially the way she's behaved toward him in the past with lots of witnesses.

More despicable behavior from Diana and Romina. Poor Emiliano. He's surrounded by scheming, lying women.

Jeff, loved your idea about trading Romina to Diana to get Emiliano for Camila. Except Diana would have to ask for a draft player to be named later to sweeten the pot since she'd be getting such a rotten deal.
 

Gloria, thanks for the great recap.

Just one thing bother me besides, of course, Carlota gunning for Inaki, is that Mac is so dense and Pal as well. After a lifetime of abuse for both of them including, as mentioned, serial killer behavior, they think they can give Carlota another chance instead of just skipping out of Dodge. At least live at Inaki's home as he suggested.

It seems from the promos, Pal and Inaki's wedding day has arrived. Can't wait to see what happens tonight.

GinCA
 

Oh, from commentors in the past and last night's conversation between Diana and Rafael, Emilio does not seem to be Rafael's biological son. Wonder who the biological daddy is? Possibly Orlando since he and Orlando seem to have a sorta father/son relationship as well, though I can't ever see Orlando hooking up with Diana.

GinCA
 

Presumably Diana's nastiness and sense of entitlement have developed over time. If at one point she had enough of her good qualities showing that Rafael fell in love with her, Orlando or someone else could have been interested as well.

Jeff, I too was thinking "iocane powder" last night. I wondered if maybe Carlota has been gradually building up her own resistance to belladonna so that she could eventually do some sort of group poisoning and show that she was also poisoned, thus surviving but deflecting suspicion from herself. I have no idea whether belladonna works that way, though.
 

Julia... love your devious mind. Didn't think of it as Cruel building up her immunity. Genius. :) Whether something works that way or not, not sure if that really matters in a TN. ;)
GinCA... I agree, can't see Diana hooking up with anyone else previously. Have Orlando and Diana met each other yet in the here and now? There would have had to have been some recognition if they had. You would think Diana knows who Emiliano works for, but then, she is in her own world, so perhaps not. :)
Novelera... Camila and Diana can trade ex or soon to be ex husbands with each other. If Diana can find Camila's ex, he should be able to care for all of her needs. He appears to have money. :)

JeffMN
 

Hi folks, Excuse me for checking in so late. After a hectic day of medical testing, I just caught the episode and Gloria's great and fully-detailed recap. I don't bite my fingernails, but if I did, they'd be bitten to the quick with worry about the drink Carlota is giving to Iñaki. This man is so smart, manly yet adorable and loving, I can't bear to have something happen to him.

My other favorite is Rafael, and I'm so rooting for him to find the woman he deserves. So proud of him for standing up to Diana. Finally, he is through with being treated like a failure.

Maggie, yes. The plot, character development and acting of all concerned are what makes this a stand-out novela for me. I don't have any way of gauging how popular these shows are in the U.S. or Mexico, but I'm surprised that the show doesn't have a stronger following here on this blog. To me, it's far more engrossing and believeable than some of the others that have been so popular.
 

Since I watch both, I can't remember if it was on ENDA or MEPS, but I saw promos for another novela: Tormenta en el Paraiso with Sara Maldonado and Erick Elias. IMBD says it was made in 2007. Can't imagine what it would replace since our three evening TNs are not due to end soon. MEPS likely would be the first one to end of the three, but we had heard El Sortilegio with Wm. Levy was going to replace it. Anybody know anything?
 

No idea. Could it possibly be replacing an afternoon novela?

Jackie, for some reason the later show is always more popular, at least on Caray Caray, no matter how AWFUL it is (yes, Fuego en la Sangre, I mean you). I personally am watching all three right now because I got sucked in and love them all, but I usually record MEPS to watch on the weekend. My television habits are out of control.
 

Novelera... I also commented on MEPS. I believe Tormenta is replacing Juro Que Te Amo in the afternoon. Juro is ending, perhaps even today, guess that would be ended today. We knew Juro was ending, but they had not been showing any new shows until the last few days. So, it may be starting up as early as next week. Another note, according to Wiki, on Televisa Juro replaced Tormenta, while now Tormenta is replacing Juro. Somewhat interesting... to me. :)

Julia... Also watching all three. Only been watching TNs since the end of LFMB, but to me, this is the strongest trio they have had in the evening. Other times, 1 or 2 I could do without, but I want to watch all three of these.

JeffMN
 

Ah, Julia, I never thought about the time slot itself. That makes sense, especially since I've never watched any of the 7 pm shows for whatever reason. I just wish more people could appreciate the talented lineup of recappers we have here for Amor.
