Caray, Caray!

Repeat of Camila getting upset with Angelica for hiding her feelings about Orlando and accusing her of being two-faced; Paloma asks German if there’s any possibility Romina’s baby could be his.

German immediately gets self-righteous, “how dare you ask me that? I don’t mess in your private life, so you don’t have a right to interfere in mine.” Although Pal has doubts, he doesn’t. She asks him if it’s fair for Emiliano to have to take care of a kid that isn’t his. She tells Germ that he still has time to talk to Emil, and he gets all mad that she’s talking like the baby is definitely his, when it’s not. When she mentions that she saw him and Romina go into her house together, he snarks that she has nothing better to do than spy on people. She says if he has doubts but still keeps quiet out of cowardice, he’s going to ruin her and Emil’s lives. Germ tells her to get lost--you aren’t my mom to tell me what to do.

Angelica informs Camila that there’s nothing between her and Orlando. Cami says that omitting something is also lying and wants to know what Angelica was up to when she was going out with Joel while having a thing for Orly. (Isn’t that the pot calling the kettle black, since Cami was dating Orly and Rafa at the same time?) And when the four of them went out together, was Ange’s fantasy to swap partners? Cami rants some more about how she thought she could trust Ange and she’s worse than she thought.

Carlota follows Natalia home and nearly gives her a heart attack by sidling right up behind her.

Rafael goes to Camila’s house--he thought it was Cami who asked him there but it turns out that it was Romina. She points out that she helped him and Cami by not saying anything about them kissing, and now he can help her and his grandchild.

Natalia has invited Carlota in and tells her that she’s only in town for 2 weeks. Carlota asks about Alonso and Nat explains that they’re probably going to divorce. Crazy-lota pours on the fake sympathy and gets in a dig about Nat being left at the altar. Carlota says sometimes she doubts Cris’s occupation, which puzzles Nat since she thinks Carlota hardly knows Cris. Carlota is only to glad to inform Nat that she knows Cris from way back, since he had that hot romance with Macarena, and Nat is impactada.

Rafael thinks everything Romi has said sounds like blackmail and he doesn’t like it. Romi claims she wants her baby to have its father’s name. Rafa notes that obligating Emil to marry her by threatening to take the baby away is not a good way to start, and besides, it’s not necessary to marry for the baby to have the father’s name. He’s sure that if she and Emil marry under these circumstances, it’s going to be a failure. Romi prefers that to being a single mother. Rafa says he’ll get Emil to support the baby, but he’s not going to pressure Emil to marry her or anyone that he doesn’t love.

Natalia relates how Cris told her that the woman he loved had killed herself, and Carlota tries to poison Nat’s mind by telling her that Cris lied. He’s a tormented man and he took refuge in the priesthood for a lie that he made up. If I were you, I’d be very careful about trusting him again.

In the office, Ange brings Orlando some papers to sign. He asks if she’s ok, and she accuses him of telling Camila about her feelings for him. Orly swears he didn’t say anything. Ange explains how Cami no longer wants her as a therapist or a friend; Orly feels bad about the whole thing.

Cami gives Meche some money to buy medicine for her grandson Chava. Meche gives her some lotion she made for Orlando to put on the bruises on his face and for Rafael too. Cami knows they were fighting and hopes it wasn’t for her. She also tells Meche about what happened with Angelica and concludes that with all this, she can understand what Diana feels.

Paloma tells Liliana about her conversation with German and that he doesn’t want to get involved. Lili thinks Germ is just running from his responsibility and tells Pal to tell Emil to talk to Germ, he can make Germ tell the truth. Pal doesn’t want to tell Emil without having any proof, so Lili reminds her that she does have it, she saw Romi and German kissing. Why does Pal need Lili to remind her of this, when she was just telling German that very thing 15 minutes ago?

Emil goes to Paloma’s house but she’s not home. Lucky for him Rufi, and not Carlota, is there. He weepily begs Rufi to help him and asks what he should do to convince Paloma not to end their relationship.

Natalia goes to the church to see Cris and wants to know if Mac was the woman for whom he left her standing at the altar. He admits that it was. Why didn’t you tell me, why did you make me believe she had died? Cris explains that he believed Mac was dead and was going to tell her, but hadn’t found the right moment. Nat leaves saying, “what a coincidence.”

Aaron stalks Paloma, er, waits for her outside her house. He mentions that everyone knows what’s happening with Romi and Emil and he’s thinking about what it means for her. He offers his unconditional friendship and literally gives her a shoulder to cry on.

Carlotta-loca goes shopping for a camera. It must be Halloween already, because the outfit she’s wearing in this (and yesterday’s) episode looks like it could double for a vampire or witch costume.

Liliana calls Emil, she has something to tell him and asks him to meet her for coffee.

Emil is visiting Chava at the hospital and explains that he no longer has a girlfriend, he lost her because he was stupid and irresponsible. For being drunk, Chava says. Yes, and that’s why I’m so worried about you. Chava says if he doesn’t drink his buddies will make fun of him. Emil tries to convince him that those aren’t his real friends. Chava worries that he’ll be left without any friends.

Cristobal goes to Natalia’s house, and Carlota, who’s parked right in front, takes a picture of him going inside. She talks to herself about how Cris is going to end up being hers, she’s not going to let anyone get near him. For your love, I’m capable of anything. If I could get rid of Macarena, I can get rid of Natalia, or even your own daughter.

Now Diana has come to Paloma’s to tell her what to do. She demands that Pal keep away from Emiliano. Rufi defends Pal and says it’s about what Emil wants, and he’s in love with Pal. Diana insists that he’s going to marry Romina. Romi doesn’t know about Emil & Pal, but she wants to have an abortion, and if she does, Pal will be the killer of that baby. Diana tops off her visit by calling Paloma a jinx (or someone who’s cursed)--whenever Paloma is near someone she loves, something bad happens, and she can’t allow her son, Romina, or the baby to be exposed to that danger. So if you don’t want to be a killer, stay away from them for good. After Diana leaves, Pal starts crying that she’s right, so Rufi tries to calm her down with a variation of the “it’s not you, it’s me” line: it’s not you, it’s the circumstances.

German accosts Romia--he wants proof that the baby isn’t his.

Orlando asks Camila how she found out about Angelica’s feelings for him, and she confesses that she overheard it at his office. Orly understands that Cami feels betrayed, and tries to explain that it has hurt Angelica to lose their friendship. Cami says it’s not him or what Angelica feels for him that’s the problem, it’s that she opened up to Ange but she didn’t put an end to the therapist-patient relationship and tell the truth.

German threatens to tell everyone that he and Romi are lovers if doesn’t submit to a paternity test, but she’s not scared, she’ll just accuse him of having seduced a minor. He points out that she has no way to prove that. Then he says that if the baby is his, he’ll marry her. If she won’t do a test now, he’ll make her do it after the baby is born. More arguing. She asks if he really would tell his best friend that he slept with his girlfriend . . . no, we know you don’t have the nerve. German admits he’s been a coward and bad friend, but for love he’s been capable of the worst, and he won’t give up this baby carrying his blood. If the baby is his, he wants to give it his name, he wants to have something that’s his. So if I’m the father, you’re going to have to marry me, not Emiliano. Romi looks touched, but I’m sure that won’t last for long.

Cris tells Natalia about how his and Mac’s love was still intact after all those years and admits he was going to give up the priesthood for her. But he read the sign wrong--he thought God wanted him at Mac’s side, but when God took her, he understood that it wasn’t their destiny to be together.

Lili meets up with Emiliano and informs him that she thinks the baby Romina is expecting could be German’s, dun Dun DUN!!!!

Cris says it’s no surprise that Carlota is trying to plant doubts in Natalia’s mind, she’s a manipulator and controller. They both worry about Paloma; Cris wants to talk about this more with Nat but with Dr. B and Rufi there too. Nat says she has a lot of reasons to want to protect Pal and Cris notes that now she’ll understand that he does too, Macarena asked me to. But just one thing, Natalia says, did you love me? Cris answers that it was a different love from what he had with Mac, but yes, I loved you. She replies that she hasn’t loved anyone again like she loved him. Cris is certain that love will come to her life again.

Lili wants Emil to know that while everything she’s told him might sound like she wants to get back at German, but that’s not how it is. She doesn’t want him to let Romi and German get away with this. Now it’s up to you to confront this, only that way are you going to be able to be happy with Pal.

Orlando and Camila go back to his place and have some wine. Cami wonders how Orly feels about Ange’s interest in him. Nothing, he replies. He thinks Cami should have spoken with him first before going postal on Ange, and she thinks he should have told her about Ange. Cami doesn’t care that Ange quit her job, she asked for it (through her lack of ethics). Orly wonders if Cami is exaggerating and she realizes something that we viewers have noticed for months now, that he takes things less seriously than she does. Orly comments that sometimes people keep secrets and that Cami did the same thing with Rafael, she kept quiet about him kissing her. Is that why you two were fighting? Orly wants to know how she knows they fought and accuses her of continuing to play with the two of them. He grabs her arm and demands an answer but she yells for him to let go and takes off. In her car, she starts crying and dialing her phone, wailing “Rafael!”

Rafa and Joel commiserate over drinks--Ange cancelled out on Joel and Rafa is worried about Camila. Joel tells Rafa to call her so he gets out his phone and starts dialing.

Emiliano goes to German’s apartment and upon not finding him there starts searching through the dresser drawers, where he finds a blouse of Romina’s.

Paloma tells Carlota that she broke up with Emil so he can make a decision about Romi, but Carlota insists there is no decision to be made--if a man dishonors a woman, he has to marry her, blah blah blah. Pal wants to know why, if that’s what Carlota thinks, did she not allow her parents to marry? Carlota claims that Pal’s father abandoned Mac, and when Pal counters that Mac told her that her father didn’t know Mac was pregnant, and he thought Mac was dead, Carlota states that Mac lied. Your father is alive. Pal doesn’t believe her so she makes Rufi swear to Pal that her papa is alive. Pal wants to know who is he, and where is he?

Previews: Emiliano tells his dad of the possibility that the baby isn’t his, German tells Romi that they’re done for (I guess that they’ve been discovered).
