ENDA, December 2, 2009
PJC talks to Padre Benito about Carloca denying that Paloma is his child. And saying that that Paloma's father is someone else. Padre Benito tells him to investigate. Because your promotion depends on it. PJC agrees.
Joel is asking Monica why she rejected him. She denies it. She just doesn't want to be rejected again once he finds out about her life. They get interrupted by Camila. Joel was waiting for her. He has an invitation for her to a ceramics convention. He and Rafael have already confirmed and want her to come along. She wants to think about it.
Orlando tells Emiliano that they have found a house and Romina is going to decorate it. Emiliano gets a hissy fit. Orlando tells him that he needs to change his attitude or his life will be hell. Emiliano says it's not that easy. Orlando says you have to try for Romina and your child. If it doesn't work out then you at least tried.
Romina is shopping for a couch and notices a couple shopping together. She cries.
Rufi is taken to a party. Edmundo walks up and apologizes for having told her a white lie. He wanted her to meet his children and grandchildren. And it was the only way for her to see the house he would buy her once she married him. Rufi laughs in his face and says they will never marry. Especially since I now know that you are a liar. Edmundo says I did this all for you because I care about you. Rufi says whatever and demands to go back to Real del Monte a.s.a.p.
PJC goes to visit Macarena's grave. He understands why she asked him to care for Paloma. He always wanted to have a child with her. Paloma is so great. I have to find out if Paloma is telling me the truth or Carloca.
Paloma reminds Carloca after Jennifer leaves that Rufi will be back in a couple of days. Carloca tells her to worry about her things and she'll worry about everything else. Paloma tells Carloca that Saturday is her art exhibit. Carloca asks if she's going to the wedding. No, replies Paloma. Carloca tells her it's a good idea and offers to pay for a new dress and salon visit to look nice for the exhibit.
Rufi demands Edmundo's granddaughter find out when she will be leaving. She tells Rufi that the bus only comes twice a week so they cannot leave today. Rufi is not happy.
Joel tells Rafael that he told Camila about the convention but she wants to think about it first. Rafael grills him.
Monica is trying to convince Camila to go to the convention.
Alonzo is taking a walk at the park and talks to Inaki's spirit. He spots Paloma and walks up to her. Paloma gets frightened, but he says it alright. He wants to know if he can talk to her for a minute. He says that he was very unfair with her. Paloma tells him that she loved his son very much. I understand that you and Carloca did not accept our relationship although at the end Carloca did. Alonzo asks if she was not surprised about Carloca's change of attitude. Paloma says she was, but figures that Carloca realized that she couldn't keep them apart. Alonzo wants to know if Inaki was sick that last night at her house. Paloma says not really. At the end of the night he was a little, but I figured he just drank too much. He was hurt that you (Alonzo) wasn't going to be at the wedding, but hoped that you would eventually accept me. Alonzo wants Paloma to tell him how she and Inaki met and what she thought of him. Paloma says they met at a party. We see a montage of her relationship with Inaki. Everything from how they met, sneaking around to see each other, their wonderful moments together and his proposal at the church. Also their last night together and his death. Alonzo the whole time is either smiling or crying. They hug.
Liliana tells Emiliano everything that happened between Romina and Paloma. Paloma telling Romina that she will not be at the wedding witnessing the man she loves marry another. Liliana says she came to tell him because Romina wouldn't.
PJC goes to la casa de la loca aka Carloca's house. He asks Paloma to speak with Carloca.
Emiliano looks out the window and says to himself how wonderful and strong Paloma is. Angelica comes in and asks Emiliano if everything is okay. He tells her that Paloma had the balls to tell Romina how she felt about him and he never told Romina how he felt about Paloma. Angelica reminds him that he did want to in the beginning, but Paloma begged him not too. He's not a coward. Emiliano asks Angelica if he told Romina how he felt about Paloma, that she would cancel the wedding. Angelica doesn't think so.
PJC asks Carloca and Paloma where he can find her father. Paloma asks why. He is a very undesirable person. PJC says he understands, but has some questions for him.
Emiliano asks Romina if Paloma told her that she was not coming to the wedding. Romina says yes because she prefers to go to her art show instead. Emiliano says that she not coming because she loves me just like I love her.
Carloca says that it's really not PJC business. PJC says it's important. Carloca doesn't understand why now that Macarena's dead and Paloma doesn't want anything to do with her father. Why do you want to talk to him? PJC says he has reasons to meet him, but if Carloca doesn't want to help he'll find other ways. Paloma says I don't really see why, but if you insist okay. Carloca says she'll call him and give him PJC's number.
Romina can't believe that Emiliano admitted to her how he feels about Paloma. Because it's the truth replies Emiliano. I would have told you sooner, but Paloma didn't want too. Romina says then you will have to forget about your love for her the moment we get married. Emiliano says they shouldn't get married. It's a bad idea now that you know I love Paloma. Romina says I don't care if you love Paloma or not. Emiliano replies that their marriage will be hell. I promise to be the best father, but don't obligate me to marry you knowing that I love Paloma who is like a sister to you. Romina says that Paloma stopped being her friend the moment she had eyes for him. So don't talk to me about her anymore and start forgetting about her this very moment. Because if you don't marry me, I promise you will never see your child. Fine replies Emiliano. But understand I am only marrying you to be a father to our child, not your husband.
Carloca tells the actor she paid to call PJC and tell him the same story he told Paloma. Fake daddy Juan tells Carloca it's not the same. It's one thing lying to a child and another lying to a priest. Carloca says it's the same thing. Fake Juan says if you want me to lie to the priest it's going to be costly. Carloca finally agrees.
Emiliano calls Paloma wanting to see her. She thinks it's not a good idea, but he says that he would ring the doorbell. He has to see her. She finally agrees to see him at the park.
Camila tells Orlando about the convention and wants him to join her. He has to see a client. They get into an argument because he knows that Rafael will be there and doesn't want her to go. She tells him that she has made her own decisions for years and will not allow someone to come in and tell her what to do.
Romina is crying to her daddy about how Emiliano doesn't love her but Paloma. BLAH-BLAH. Samuel is annoyed, but tries to hide it. He tells her to calm down. He says there is a thin line between love and hate. She needs to change tactics. What tactics asks Romina? The victim replies Samuel. It never fails. No man likes a difficult woman. They like to protect a woman, provide for her and be the authority. So if you make him feel like he's the boss and is needed then things will change. Romina says that's not me. Samuel says if you want your marriage to work then you will.
Paloma asks Emiliano why he told Romina the truth. Because you did replies Emiliano. Well yeah because soon I will be leaving this place and it doesn't matter. She should have never known how he feels about her. It will only cause more problems. I thought that if she knew how I felt about you she would cancel the wedding. Why do we have to give up on our love all because of a mistake? It's not fair to us. Life is not fair replies Paloma. You have to marry Romina tomorrow and I will have to leave here. I have to make a life without you. It's not easy without you. But I love you so much replies Emiliano. So do I says Paloma. They kiss.
Diana wants Carloca to help unmask the woman that Rafael is now with since she will be at the wedding. Carloca says that she will not be able to go because she is going to Paloma's art exhibit instead. But you can do that all on your own. Diana says I need your advice then. You are a smart woman. Tell me what to do. Carloca tells her to out the woman in front of everyone.
Samuel goes to visit Emiliano. He yells at Emiliano to treat Romina right and not only are they to have a civil ceremony, but also a religious one. Emiliano says that's between Romina and me. No replies Samuel. She is my daughter and it is my business to protect her. If that was the case says Emiliano, you would never have abandoned her as a child. Samuel starts to say something, but Emiliano interrupts and says he has no right to say anything to him. Samuel says he's with her now to protect her and care for her. Emiliano tells him then to convince Romina not to marry him because he doesn't love her. Samuel says he won't do it. And if Romina cries one tear over him then he'll have to deal with him. Emiliano tells Samuel to get out.
Fake Juan calls PJC. PJC wants to meet tomorrow. They set up a meeting.
Alonzo tells Natalia that she was right about Paloma. I know understand why Inaki feel in love with her. I saw her at the park and talked to her. I want to help her because Inaki would have wanted me too.
Carloca and Samuel meet up in the streets. He wants to invite her to coffee, but Carloca has to go to Paloma's art exhibit. Camila spots Samuel giving Carloca's hand a kiss and wonders why they are together.
Manana: La boda de Romina and Emiliano; Paloma's new look
Labels: amor
Thanks for a very thorough, journalistic report on last night's episode. You filled in the things I missed due to my Spanish deficiencies. I had not replayed the tape yet.
It is going to be miserable watching this wedding! I hope PJC sees through the fake father of Paloma immediatley. Maybe there will be a surprise tonight.
Frank in IL
I thought the sequence with Paoloma and Alonso was wonderfully acted and moving. I was actually in tears. It was so touching how he was able to apologize and comfort Paloma and share their love of this young man.
So much happened this episode. The wedding promises to be explosive and how will the meeting with Cris & fake dad go? Enjoyed Emiliano standing up to slimey Samuel and Camila telling controlling Orlando to back off.
The recaps add so much to my enjoyment of this novela and at the same time, I don't think you can really appreciate the novela without watching it as well so you get to see the fine acting here. I would particularly single out the actors playing Carlota, Paloma, Romina, Cristobal, Rafael, German & Rufina.
Jackie
Like Jackie, my tears for Inaki will never stop flowing. Still miss this charismatic galan.
Tonight should really be a riveting episode if the boda takes place, Chris meets fake Dad and Pal has a makeover.
GinCA
I loved the flashbacks of Iñaki. I miss him so much! I think there were scenes there that we had never seen before.
Can someone please take advantage of Paloma's makeover to get a hair sample? And then just happen by a lab with a sample from Cris to compare it to? Why is Cris even bothering to follow up on Carloca's lies? Untangling them all would take a lifetime.
Interesting dynamics in the Mondragón family. Sammy thinks women should be submissive and not self-sufficient and depend on men. Camila makes her own decisions and won't stand for Orlando trying to control her (yet she's still thinking of marrying him? Poor woman is so depressed). Romina is much more like her mother than she'd like to admit, but will she take her father's gross advice?
I also hope Cris sees right through the actor. He gives him the same B.S. he gave Paloma about Mac. Then Cris should recognize that he is lying.
Remember Carloca told him to say the same thing he said to Paloma.
Is crazy Diana going to call out Camila at the wedding?
Samuel has some nerve to try to tell Emiliano what to do. I'm glad Emiliano threw him out.
I really blown away by Attair Jarabo who plays RoMEna,you can see the sadness and vulnerabilty with her. At the same time you want to slap some sense into her about her obsession.
Really her obsession is not Emiliano but being left by the man she loves like her mother. She has to realize that she doesn't love Emiliano, she's upset that Emiliano doesn't fawn over like German.
Remember she even made a play for Inaki too.
I also believe it's gonna take her to realize what a absolute slimeball her father is too. Make her look in the mirror and say she has a problem.
The scene between her and Paloma when Paloma told her that she loved Emiliano too and they would not be friends anymore. She wanted her to be happy with Emiliano anyway for the baby sake.
You could see she was watching the only girlfriend she ever had leave her because of her lies and manipulations.
Watching Judgy McTwoface then act all fawning and get dissed and dismissed can be rather entertaining.
It's great when the poor, abused telenovela characters end up with all the power, money, and respect by the end, and the snobs are groveling for crumbs.
I'm with Jackie, GinCAS and everyone else who loved the Inaki montage. How he is missed! The scene of Paloma and Alonzo was so well done and very, very moving. I also enjoyed Cris' hug of Paloma in front of Carlota. An in your face display of an unbreakable bond.
At this point, it really is unbelievable that Romena would proceed with the wedding. Even though she knew Paloma and Emiliano were in love, having them profess their love for each other to her on the day before her wedding should have been the final straw.them actually telling her made it so much worse.
Jackie, I love Paloma too. I think part of it is a great fondness for the actress herself.
Diana
I think the writers should have given Paloma more than that emotion. Let's hope since last night was episode 102.In the 69 episodes that are left we get to see that.
Romina is a complex character, vain and self absorbed and yet vulnerable and in pain. She wants to reassure herself that she's loveable, unlike her mother whom she considers a failure as a woman, but her tragedy is that she rebuffs the people in her life who truly love her, like Camila, Paloma and even German, in her futile quest to win over her father and Emiliano, two men who are emotionally unavailable to her.

Let's hope the makeover signals a shift in the tides.
Diana
I've seen Laura Flores (Camila) in several novelas but never Allisson nor Altair Jarabo (Romina) so I'm looking forward to seeing them together and seeing Allisson in another role.
Now if someone can just find something with Luis Acha (Inaki), everything will be perfect. I just love his smile and want to be his novia. Of course, he'd always have to be in Inaki mode, so that would be a lot of pressure for him :)
Jackie
Anon 12:44, I think you described some subtle things very well.
This is going to be some wedding.
