MEPS - Wednesday, Sept. 16 - Padre and AB debate; Fer has an enchanted dream; Fr/Ed makes a death wish
* Venus cries and prays for Steve's life in the hospital chapel.
* Venus, Fr/Ed and Padre Bosco find out from Dr. how Steve is - he is out of surgery but not out of danger or coma. He will be transferred to an ICU room soon. Fr/Ed asks about specific prognosis. Dr. tells him that Steve is really critical.
* Barbie is awake, and thought bubbling about her new wonderful life with Aurora and her grandson.
* In the ICU room, Venus cries at Steve's bedside. She talks about happy dreams for her and Steve. Steve is in a coma. She wants him to wake up and say her name; she can't lose him now. He's the best thing in her life. She promises to learn english - if only he wakes up. Monitor starts to flatline and the alarm rings. Nurse rushes in.
* Fr/Ed and Padre Bosco are grumbling about Steve's beating - they think AB ordered it. Fr/Ed vows revenge but they have to do so without putting Lili's life in jeopardy. Venus is shaking and crying as she runs out to tell them about Steve flatlining.
* In the room, Dr. comes to the rescue and uses the paddles to get Steve's heart beating again.
* In the reception area, Dr. tells Fr/Ed and Venus that Steve is still in a coma and is still extremely critical.
* Miguel is thought bubbling and dreaming about his undying love for Fernanda Elizalde.
* Fer is sleeping and dreaming -- she dreams that she's wearing a white gown in the garden; she sees Fr/Ed in a white suit and runs over towards him; she stops when Erika appears in a white wedding gown and Erika and Fr/Ed walk away; Fer turns and sees Miguel standing there saying her name...
* Fr/Ed continues to talk with Padre Bosco about his plan to have Padre meet with AB - he plans to give himself up in order to end the violence; he doesn't want to lose any more loved ones. Fr/Ed tells Padre to meet with Don Artemio with the deal. Fr/Ed only asks that Steve doesn't die - if anyone should die, it should be him.
* Don Artemio interrogates Lili about the missing diary - AB suspects that Lili gave it to Fr/Ed. Ciro whispers to Lili advice in order to help the "White King" (Fr/Ed). Lili mutters, but it's a secret. Don Artemio has good hearing and questions her about the 'secret'. Lili stays quiet and doesn't answer. He scolds her. She cries that she won't get her trip to Egypt to see the pyramids. AB leaves. Ciro consoles Lili.
* Padre Bosco and Fr/Ed finalize the plan for Padre's meeting with AB. Fr/Ed knows Fer will hate him forever; Padre says he's proud of him and leaves.
* Sister Fidelia meets with Aurora in the bedroom. Aurora wants to meet with Barbie now. Fidelia leaves. Aurora prays for support and forgiveness for the lie she's about to tell Barbie (that she's not leaving the convent).
* Fr/Ed talks with Fer in the reception area about Steve's beating. Lovely comes over crying about Steve still in a coma. Fer walks away. Fr/Ed grumbles to Venus that he suspects someone of the beating. Venus grumbles that she has her own suspicions that the low-life monster Camilo did this. Fr/Ed is stunned, "QUE?!?! CAMILO?!?!?" (Oh, Crap!)
* Barb visits Aurora. Aurora doesn't believe Barbie is sincere and cares about her. Barbie tries to assure Aurora; she can't explain right now since Damian is on his way over now. Barbie shows Aurora the passport and birth certificate she has for Aurora and says that tomorrow she will explain everything, tell the whole truth to Aurora. Tomorrow they will leave the convent and be together forever.
* Fr/Ed tells Fer that they suspect the person who beat up Steve was her monster brother Camilo.
* Padre Bosco arrives at AB's office for the meeting. AB is happy to see him - he's been waiting for the visit.
* Fr/Ed is so angry, he's fuming, and if Camilo was here now, he'd ring Camilo's neck and kill him. Fer has to calm Fr/Ed down, then calls Camilo on her cell phone. Camilo wakes up from his deep sleep to answer the phone. Fer wants him to swear on their mother's grave to tell her the truth, did he beat up Steve and leave him for dead? Camilo laughs and wonders if Steve's still alive then grunts some insults against Steve and hangs up. Fer turns to Fr/Ed and says, it's true, Camilo is responsible.
* AB and Bosco sit down and start their meeting.
* Fr/Ed calls Barbie and asks her to stop the meeting between Padre Bosco and AB. Barbie wants to know what is in it for her. Fr/Ed says he'll promise whatever she wants. She wants him to keep a secret for her. He promises. She agrees to help him out. Fr/Ed prays for divine intervention.
* AB starts to spout about his doubts over the cremains of Eduardo that are supposed to be in Soledad's vault. Padre counters with his arguments that it's true. AB spouts off about his love and devotion to the evil devil and wonders about Padre's teachings in the church. AB thinks all the sermons about good vs. evil are a trap. Padre stands up and defends Jesus and God's love and support. The phone rings and interrupts the philosophical debate. AB tells Barb to call back later, he's busy. She convinces him not to hang up on her - she tells AB that Padre Bosco is there to negotiate for Lili's release and to let her speak with Padre now. AB hands the phone to him. Barbie tells Padre Bosco to leave the house now, that AB thinks he's there to negotiate for Lili's release. They hang up. AB wonders what that was all about. Padre tells him that he wants to negotiate for Lili's release.
* Barbie calls Fr/Ed to tell him that she has completed her part of the deal.
* Fer and Lovely talk in the reception area. Lovely explains to Fer that what she did to Camilo had to be done - he's a despicable low-life and she had no intention to marry him. Lovely leaves. Fr/Ed and Fer talk about Camilo - Fer wants her brother to pay for all his crimes.
* AB and Padre Bosco continue their discussion - about Padre wanting Lili released to his custody. AB wonders about Eduardo Juarez. Padre says Eduardo is dead.
* As Barbie waits in her car outside the convent front entrance, Aurora meets with Damian in the courtyard. Aurora tells Damian what they talked about and she promises not to leave with Barbie.
* Padre Bosco assures AB that he will show him the dead body of Eduardo Juarez Cruz. AB is stunned. What body? I thought you said that Eduardo was cremated and his ashes are with his mother's. Padre Bosco said that's a lie. An unknown man was cremated and placed there instead. So where's the body? asks AB. Bosco says buried in a grave in the church's cemetery, undisturbed and at peace. AB has more questions and suspicions. Padre Bosco silently thought bubbles a prayer, and then tells AB to give Lili to him first. AB says, no, I want to see Eduardo's body first.
* Damian explains again to Aurora not to leave with Barbie, just to find out what Barbie's secret is for him. Damian leaves.
* Outside the convent, Barbie sees Damian walk to his car. She calls him on the cell phone and tells him to deliver a load of explosives to another locations in two hours. Damian writes down the address.
* Fer is about to leave - she picks up her purse, and leaves her cell phone on the chair. Fr/Ed asks her about her late night date with Miguel last night. Fer doesn't have too much to say. Fr/Ed is jealous of Miguel. Fer is stunned and tells him that he's engaged to Erika so why is he concerned. He explains how he's dying of jealousy inside, and reveals all his jealous thoughts about her and Miguel. She laughs and tells him to chill out. She reminds him again that he's about to marry Erika. He wants to continue the discussion. Erika hops out of the elevator and interrupts. Erika stays with Fr/Ed as Fer leaves.
* In the hallway, Fer runs into Padre Bosco. Fr/Ed enters the hallway and greets Padre - they very briefly explain how they met to Fer. Fr/Ed gives Fer her cell phone. She leaves.
* Damian is driving in his car, mumbling about how he wants to discover the secrets of the evil Hyena.
* Fr/Ed explains to Padre Bosco that he had to make a deal with the devil to stop the meeting - that Camilo was responsible for Steve's beating not AB as they thought. Padre Bosco tells him the bad news - that AB wants to see Eduardo's body!
* Barbie meets with AB in the office - she tells AB that Gonzo is about to sign his will and all the documents over to her in the name of Barbara Greco. AB seems upset and lunges at her - he wants to know if she's even thinking about double-crossing him.
ADVANCE -- INTENSITY HEATS UP IN THE FINAL EPISODES!!!

I guess I need to re-tune my beanie because there is no earthly reason for Fr/Ed and the Padre to think that Artie was responsible for Steve's beating. That they never even suspected Cad is even more amazing. I mean how obvious does this have to be for them to figure it out? !Estupido!
Oh, and Death to cat butt!
Free Lili!
Jody, I just want you to know that last night's episode was sooo tense I was shaken and stirred and couldn't go to sleep. Loved seeing Franco absolutely lose his cool over Miguel; and Fernanda telling him to snap out of it. As many have said, she's a feisty take-no-prisoners heroine.
Am also impressed with the actor playing the dual roles of Gonzalo and Artemio. As Gonzalo he's a doddering sexless old fool; as Artemio he exudes a dangerous feral power and sexiness that is both repellant and attractive.
In both cases, stellar job of really inhabiting the role.
Loved that gown Fer was wearing in her dream. Wherever she shops in her dreams, she should shop when she's awake too. THough I think her clothes have gotten better lately in general.
I too was quite confused as to why FrEd and Bosco suspected AB for the beating, but I guess it was just a plot gimmick to get Bosco at AB's place with nothing to say. I don't know if the corpse thing is such a problem. Nobody knows what grownup Eduardo looks like, plus he was killed in an accident that might have mangled his face. So any stiff will do.
And getting a DNA sample from the real Eduardo shouldn't be too difficult. It will just require some trickery to convince AB that the DNA came from the corpse - especially if AB insists on taking the sample himself.
Death to cat butt x 10. He is repulsive.
Err is just too much. I thought Fr/Ed actually pushed her off last night in the hospital. Really...how much of that kudzu can a person stand?
Loved the dream sequence. Fer looked absolutely gorgeous in that gown.
Free Lili!

I'm so sick of Erika. Why can't two people have a conversation without her velcroing herself to Fr/Ed? And it's not the wimpy peel and stick velcro, it's the kind you have to sew on and lasts forever. Can't you see it there on his arm?! :} It's sad that she is so insecure.
How many of you thought Babs was going to blow up Dam's car? I sure did. When she pulled out the phone I thought it was going to trigger the blast.
Maggarita
At what point did Erika think the marriage was for real? I distinctly remember them saying it was all a farce, blah, blah, blah.
Who is the man with the hat, that does the Direct TV commercials? I know the Marilyn Monroe look alike has a talk show.
Julie, Do novelas know about DNA?
So what is Aurora going to think when she sees her birth certificate? Why is she now trusting Damian, unless Fernanda asked her to find out what he's up to. At least she's not crying.
Erika had to hear a little of the argument between Fer & Fr/Ed. Most people would start to put 10 & 10 together.
From the avances, looks like Santiago is back in the picture. Glad he's back & I think we will see a different Santiago when he finds out what's been going on.
Fernanda has some really good dreams.
The white gown was nice, and I really liked the rose dress Fernanda wore to the supper. The 'do rag: nope.
When Fer and Franco were arguing in the hospital, my husband said, "Now Erika will show up," and she did.

I didn't think the assumption that AB was behind Steve's beating was all that far-fetched. After all, AB told FrEd that he wanted to meet Steve Norton, and soon after he went to visit Padre Bosco and was very menacing. It takes only a slight beanie adjustment to buy the conclusion that AB did in Steve.
Julie, I liked your thinking about how to get AB to see "Eduardo's" cadaver and the problem of the DNA. Perhaps they can ask FrEd to donate some blood, which they will pour over some parts of the corpse. The blood will dry, and then if AB takes a scraping from the skin or some hair, perhaps Eduardo's DNA will be what's found. Yuck! My beanie is crying for more adjustment.
I hate comas in these TNs. Everyone who knows or ever had anything to do with the afflicted one feels compelled to stand at the bedside and pour out their hearts uttering inanities that just consume valuable time. The comatose patient is the fortunate one in these situations.
Nanda in her white gown...wow!
Carlos
JudyB: on AB and Gonzo, I agree with your comments. We haven't talked much about what a great job that actor is doing.
Julie: On Fer's clothes, yes, all of a sudden she looks so much better. It is almost as if someone else is doing her wardrobe.
Marggarita and Connie:. On Erica, kudzu and velcro, very good descriptions.
Someone on the set crew loves lime green. The emergency room had EVERYTHING painted green. Don't think I have ever seen that exact shade in a hospital, not even in Florida.
Poor Father Bosco, the actor does "scared rabbit" so well! Why didn't Fr/Ed handle the big cheese, AB himself?
Sandy
Lofely is Venus
Tio Esteve is not her tio
Babs is Rebeca Sanchez & Aurora's Mom
Franco is Eduardo
Tonight s/b good, 18 to go
I have to jump on the bandwagon deriding the estupidez we are seeing. let's see,suspecting AB instaed of Cad, then thinking of blowing Franco's cover; Cad doing the attack, especially with his frat bros joining in, then admitting to it to his sister that has already threatened to turn him in for Abora's rape; Fr/Ed blowing a cork of jealsoy when he appears to be going thru with the idiotic marriage to Err, Err wanting to marry Fr/Ed despite her knowing he's not into her but Fer. Fernanda continues to be the only one that considtantly acts like a normal and rational adult.
So now it appears that Rumpole has to come up with some putrified corpse to send over the AB, as well as salt it with Eddy's DNA. Why didn't he just say that Eduardo's ashes were behind door #2? The old boy doesn't think too well on his feet. This should be interesting.
Lili libre, Que se muere Camilo

The Direct TV guy is very handsome. I don't know who he is either.
Jackie
Erika is like one of those rare earth magnets.
Too bad they didn't keep the ESwat team, they could have wacked Cami with no question asked and ESteve would not be in the hospital.

Carlos
I wonder why the nuns didn't tell Dam to "button up" this time? Maybe that's just Madre S, and the younger nuns don't mind...
Judy, ITA about the actor playing Gonzo/Artie. He's great! I wonder how much time he has to spend in makeup every day?
Fer did look great in the white gown. But as usual, Erika showed up. I can't help liking Erika, but honestly, even I have to admit she's getting to be like a rash that never goes away.
Erika's mom has questioned Erika as to why Franco is always big-upping Fernanda.
Chelsie took a picture of Franco and Fernanda together holding hands and gave it to Erika.
Franco is not affectionate with Erika, barely kisses her, refuses to sleep/spend the night with her. Quite frankly, Erika should be wondering if FRANCO is gay, not joking on Camilo.
Erika has resorted to stalking Fernanda and importing a slimy dude from Spain to distract Fernanda.
Erika's not going to get it unless she sees Franco grabbing Fernanda and giving her that smooch like he did when they were at the country house and Fernanda was wearing that Brownie dress. And even then, she'll blame Fernanda instead of accepting the fact that Franco. Does. Not. Want. Her.

If I'm not mistaken, he also said he wants to compare it to a sample from Soledad's husband. (I missed the explanation as to how/where he got that.)
Of course, if by some bizarre circumstance it turns out that Ed's father wasn't Soledad's husband, there will be a problem. But I sorta doubt that.
I loved it when Venus and Padre Bosco were looking for Steve and he was calling “Esteve” almost as if he was emphasizing the first syllable. LOL!
Susanlynn: “Maybe Barb will die saving Aurora from AB” That would be good! And she’ll tell her in her last gasping words who her ma is, maybe pa too.
Julie, “ADN in Spanish = DNA in English” Thanks!
Lately I’ve been falling asleep during the MEPS. Not because it’s not action-packed, but b/c I’m so worn out from trying to get a picture with my rabbit ears, I don’t have the strength to concentrate on these rapid-fire conversations.
I hope I get to watch in Oregon next week. 6:00! I hate missing anything this close to the end!
On the green, I noticed that even the countertops in the nurses station were green!

I also saw the one where he played the older man whose spirit enters a handsome young man, Mario Cimarro. It was called El Cuerpo del Deseo.
Unfortunately he was in a sleazy reality show "El Principe Azul" in which they try to find a novia for his handsome young son. He ogled all the young women and behaved pretty badly throughout, so my deep love withered and died.
I believe he has a web site with some pictures of him when he was a young man acting in Mexican movies. A total babe!
Anon 11:13 you and I have the same thoughts about Venus. She was involved in a game against Cami, She never loved him and had no intentions of marrying him. Yet she had the nerve to enter his house without permission and get pissed when she found him with another woman. She dangled a carrot in his face pretending to be wealthy. Her lies made her appear to be a good catch. She overdid it as far as I'm concerned.
I know this is only a tele, but I prefer our justice system of trial by a jury rather than allowing a person to take the law into their own hands. I'd be a darn serial killer if I could get away with knocking off a few of the men who cheated on me.
Missy
Add my name to the old folks group of this site. Growing up I only saw the inside of a hospital once when I had my tonsils out. Everything was green, even the warm Jello they brought me when I came to.

Vis a vis Artemio being Fr/Ed's father, anything is possible. And we know that this is a staple of TNs - that the evil villain, often played by Cesar Evora, turns out to be the father of the galan. The thing that makes me doubt this is that Soledad looked to be about 11 or 12 when AB was born. The age difference makes it seem unlikely to me.
Carlos
Had my tonsils out when I was 6, in 1958. I remember green hospitals and green schools. I think it was considered to be a 'calming' color.
Months ago, Erika was in her home at a desk, designing something, perhaps her bridal gown, but I think maybe boots because on the wall were two photos/drawings of boots which I wouldn't think anyone but a designer would have on display. She certainly has oodles of time on her hands so she may just dabble in design. Or maybe, I hallucinated the whole thing since no one else noticed.
I compare everyone to FC, while hot, Miguel doesn't come close to El Hunkisimo. Still think he and Erika will end up together, hey we are running out of time & men.
I don't think Soledad was robbing the cradle. We've seen her husband & supposedly Eduardo's father in a picture. He died when Ed was VERY young. Surely if it was Artemio, someone would know, Silvestre, Gonzo ie.
If that is the secret, Silvestre knows it also & he's not on the hit list.
Unless------There is another secreto.
It isn't the green, it's the LIME green!
Look forward to a fun MEPS night....
Sandy in TN
Yes, Fr/Ed did indeed agree to the marriage based on Erika's suggestion that their love could be like a seed that will grow with time. So far, though, I think all we've got is a moldy seed in a pot of mud.
As for green and tonsils, I am too young to remember things from the 50s firsthand, but I'm not too young to remember things painted that color. Some of the walls in my school were painted in horrific hues. Donated paint, I presume (it was a Catholic school that the diocese was just itching to close).
On the other hand, I didn't have my tonsils taken out 'til I was 33, but I was never so happy to be rid of something. Except for that one guy. ;o)
Variopinta, exactly.
Julie, funny.
