Caray, Caray!

Ep 81

Review: Noel has intervened between Renato and Aimee, who is screaming he wants to kill me and I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything!! Juan is carrying a struggling Regina to the captain’s quarters, she is saying "don't touch me!!" She loses her struggle to her illness and goes limp. Juan lays her on the bed and she starts to shake. Juan doesn’t know what to do, what’s wrong with you? Dios mio!, Colibri comes and tells Juan that Regi has the same illness the men at the Paradise had. She continues pale and shaking in her nun's habit. Coli says We've got to do something or she’ll die! Juan is disturbed - Don’t say that!

Noel has intervened between Aimee and Renato and is telling Aimee that it’s probably just all that has happened that is upsetting them. He tells Ren he's noticed the drinking but right now, it’s better to relax, and you, too, Aimee, calm down. Don’t cry anymore, remember that there are no roses with out thorns, no heaven without suffering. Aimee continues crying. Noel says let’s leave behind all that’s happened, Aimee interjects No, I don’t want to sleep here! Renato who clearly isn’t listening to his dad, downs more wine. No, I want to go sleep in my room, my old room!! At this, furious Renato shouts No way dude!! and throws his wine glass across the room in the direction of Aimee, who starts wailing anew. Noel gives Renato a withering parental stare and Aimee says Padrino get me out of here!! he says, I beg you, let Aimee leave. Then turns at the door and starts to say something to Ren, who shouts YA YA YA YA YA YA YA YA!! shooing them out of the room. Noel points his finger and says, young man we will talk tomorrow! More YA YA YA from Ren and as we hear them leave he takes a swig of the bottle, and continues his tantrum by throwing it and sweeping the stuff off of the table.

Crashing waves in the night and we are in the cave with Fed and Servando who have to remove the body of the man stabbed by Fulgencio. Fed says the boss man will never know what happened, Servi says watch out for Fully and you'd better bet careful fooling around with Eloisa. Feddy grabs him by the neck ‘ mucho cuidado, Servando, you're playing with fire! Don’t imagine I am a gentleman and don’t cross me! He releases Servi, who chokes and touches his neck, Fed starts to move the body and shouts at him, come on, help me already!!!

Juan is removing Regi’s shoes and Colibri continues to tell him how the men died who had the fever, that he saw it, the heat and fever, Coli is really getting into the description, scrinches up his face and says something about the pain in the head, blood boiling, holding his arm up and clawing his hand down his arm, like this like this! Regi shakes and trembles some more - See Capitan, she is trembling! We have to do something! But what? We need to put vinegar on her head! Juan runs out to get it and Coli says don’t die, senorita, don’t die!! Juan runs back with the bottle of vinegar.

Back at the puerto, Madame is feeding soup to Rosenda who still appears to be in a lot of pain. She tells her, her name is Rosenda and she worked with a family that didn’t treat her well. What happened to me? You had an accident, but I’ll tell you about it later, it’s important that you stay calm, for you ....... and the child you are expecting, as she touches Rosie’s stomach. Rosie is impactada, then I must be married, where is my husband? You don't have a husband, you are a poor girl who has suffered a lot and made some mistakes because of that. Do I have family? Your father died, and my mother, where is my mom? Madame is about to cry and Rosie looks at her puzzled.

Feddy is holding up a little bottle to Eloisa and telling her to be very careful, to look for the right moment to poison Fulgencio as soon as you can. And what is the hurry? she asks. I don't trust Servando, at any moment he could rat us out. So, Servando wants to betray us? Eloisa smugly says - Don't worry about him, I'll take care of him. You? what are you going to do? You'll find out, and Eloisa grabs him for a clandestine kiss. As he leaves, she looks at the bottle and then hides it down the front of her dress.

Rosie is saying to Madame, you didn't answer my question, where is my mother? She isn't here right now. Why? She made a lot of errors out of ignorance, and you don't know how sorry she is, as Madam starts to sob, Rosenda looks perplexed, Madame goes on crying, she'll come when she can, but the important thing is that you know she wants your forgiveness and this is her opportunity to show you how much she loves you. Both are crying.

Colibri tells Capitan he is doing the compress all wrong. Geez Capitan, don't you know any better than that, como crees? He takes it and shows Juan how to put the compress on Regi's head, softly, gently. He tries, but is anxious and wants to leave. Coli tells him no, you have to watch her all night, she is sick! All night?! Ach, Que tienes senorita, ya? What we have to do is get Doctorcito, go tell Santos that even though it's dangerous they have to go find him. Coli leaves and Juan continues to try to put the cloth on her forehead, Regi continues to shake. He looks up at his father's picture on the wall for support or inspiration and the love song comes on. He looks down at Regi, saying to himself, she is such a beautiful woman, he just noticed. He touches her forehead gently, she so clean, so pure, Regi starts moaning for water, Juan nervously fumbles for it.

We fly through the clouds to the Puerto, and Noel is talking to Gabriel. Noel says Juan is in trouble with the authorities, and he's made it worse by leaving. Do you know where he's gone? Sorry, I don't, but in my capacity as his notary, I am charged to tell you he now wants his half of the finca del mar and the Montes de Oca fortune. Noel is muy impactado and in slow motion, says whoa didn't see that coming - Juan must have changed his mind, he always said he didn't want any of that money. Why do you say that, are you going to oppose this? No Gabriel, not at all, and especially now that Juan is married to Regina. I'll be the first to say Juan should have his inheritance, he is fully within his rights, I won't be the one to stop it.

Doctorcito is taking care of Regina while Juan and Coli look on. Coli, still playing the adult in this situation, prompts Juan to ask, what does she have? She may have gotten the fever from being around the sick men, I have given her the medicine and we'll see if she gets better. But, whatever else, this illness has been aggravated by her state of being. Doc hesitates, Juan says go ahead, speak frankly. Well, Regina has had an attack of terror (panic attack?) Juan says she not like the other Montes de Loca's, she's very delicate isn't she? No, Regina has always seemed to me to be strong, and brave, it may be going on the voyage that has made her sick. Could be. The Doc gets out medicines and starts to head towards Regi to give them to her, but Juan politely blocks him. Doc gets it and says, I'll just leave them here. Juan says I'm in debt to you yet again, Doc. Doc says no, I believe in what you're doing and I care about Regi. Juan tells Coli to accompany him out, he kneels down to give Regi the medicine and jumps when the Doc comes back in unexpectedly. He tells Juan to take care of her and protect her with his life if necessary, she is a good woman, the best woman I have ever known. (Aww) Doc leaves and Juan kneels down to very tenderly put the pills in Regina's mouth.

Outside Coli is crying and Doc walks up saying you care a lot about her don't you? She has always been good to me, she is going to get better isn't she? Colibri, do you know how to pray? Maybe you could teach me. Your sadness is probably enough for God to hear you. Why? Because he is the only one who can save her. Remigio looks on concerned as Coli cries and starts to pray. Doc pats his shoulder comfortingly.

Arcadio is hiding behind a tree and eating an apple while spying on the Doc's place. He watches Doctorcito come back, followed a little later by Madame and a little later still, Clemencia. (Uh oh).

Aimee is in her bedroom crying and tearing apart her bed. Maldita Regina!!! She's going to be in bed with Juan, Maldita!! Celia comes in good morning! What are you talking about, good morning!! I brought your breakfast. She glances at the bed and says, I wonder where Juan and Regina are? Shut up!!! Shut up!! as Aimee knocks the tray out of her hand. But people are saying Juan has taken Regina on his boat. Aimee wants none of this, Luzbel, basta! He's like a king on his boat, a tyrant, that's all. Celia says just like Renato is with the finca...MEN. Renato has changed so much (gee wonder why, Aimee), I'm afraid of him now. Celia replies that she kinda noticed that and Aimee better be careful. The only one who can protect me is my Padrino Noel. I don't know how to get Leonarda to support me, to trust me. Celia has a brilliant idea, I know!!! Leonarda is dying for a grandson, if you have a baby she'll have to come around. (Really, does this girl know Leonarda?) Lightbulb goes on over Aimee's head.

Renato is yelling at Noel, Nunca Nunca will I share the Finca with Juan, let him take half of my hard work! But before you wanted to give it to him, says Noel sensibly. Well, that was before, before he showed me his true face! But Juan has every right to this as a Montes de Oca, and Regina as well. If Regina wants to go with a ruffian, a liar, a thug, that's that. But....I can't believe what I'm hearing, I can't believe you have changed so much!! Noels starts, Listen to me well..interrupted by Ren yelling WHAT WHAT!!, Listen, if you fight this, you're the one who will suffer. Okay Dad,you want to know why I've changed? Yes I want to know. I AM SICK AND TIRED, SICK AND TIRED of being betrayed, I've been betrayed and I'm going to do the punishing with my own hands!!!! GET IT??!!! I can't say I really blame him.

Eloisa is pouring the poison in some coffee and bringing it to Fulgencio. Here is your coffee dear, just how you like it. Fully is focusing on his work, and Eloisa complains about how he doesn't even look at her when she brings his coffee, she says slyly, go ahead, drink your coffee before it gets cold. He says, but you never pay attention to me, and as it always goes with poisonings, he lifts the cup to drink but doesn't and puts it down. Okay, what do you want Eloisa, a new present? I don't want you to think I am a woman who doesn't care about the wellbeing of her husband. Fully stands up and runs into the book and papers, knocking over the coffee and spilling it. Que barbaridad! Now look what I did, thank you Eloisa, but leave me alone, let me work in peace! I don't need coffee, I don't need anything, and now I'll have to start all over! I'll bring you another cup, NO Eloisa, I said I don't want anything, just let me work, please! She has an enigmatic look, foiled but also taken aback.

Aimee meanwhile is saying, Of course, a grandchild will fix everything, she'll have to protect me. She and Celia agree what a good idea this is. But Aimee holds a butter knife to her throat and says I'd better be able to count on your discretion. No, no, no, don't worry, my lips are sealed! She clutches her abdomen, yes a child will save me! We hear an echo of child laughter in the background, (Juanito?)

Arcadio is telling Leo he spied on the Doc and saw that Madame Marlene going in and out. Leo knows immediately that means Rosenda is there, she tells Arca Madame is Rosie's mom. She is Rosenda's mother?!! Oh, yes, yes, only Rod and I knew that, Marlene was Magda, the wife of Celestino, she abandoned the girl a long time ago. Clemencia was there, too. Clemencia!!?? Leo is furious, I don't understand that mujer, she is going to pay dearly for her betrayals!! She storms out the door. Arca says to himself, since Rosie is the daughter of that slut, now I know where she is, muy bien. One down... but where is the loca? I've got to find her before someone else does. She must be at the beach, always waiting for her Juan de Dios. He says in a silly high voice, locacita, locacita, I'm coming to get you, and then loud deep voice, where did you go!!

The loca is lying on the sand, a bit of leg showing, when Santos's girlfriend (whose name I can't remember) happens upon her. Senora are you alright? Who are you? says MdR as she covers her leg. Are you Arcadio's wife? No No, I'm not anyone's wife, she starts to panic. That man only hurts me, hits me, and she starts to struggle over the dune. We hear the music getting dramatic and see Arca hoofing it up the beach. Santos' GF believes MdR that she is not Arca's wife, sees Arca coming and hurries MdR to hide behind the dunes. They hunker down, we see Arca getting closer, but somehow he doesn't see them and turns around and heads back down the beach. Santos' GF says come to my house and leads MdR away.

Clem is talking to Leo, saying yes it is true, I went to see Rosenda, what of it? Someone tried to kill her. Leo says That doesn't surprise me, women like that always have a bad end, same as her mother. Does she know who tried to kill her? We see Leo's relief when Clem says, No, the blow to her head made her lose her memory. Leo warns Clem that she doesn't want her visiting Rosenda, it is a betrayal of her trust. Cheeky Clem says Why, because she is expecting Rod's kid? Leo is taken aback and scandalized, Shut up!! We won't talk about that because you know it isn't true! Senora, of course it's true, you know she is expecting Rod's child! Shut up already!! We won't be having any more bastards in this family! Even if you don't want to recognize it, there will be another bastard. No, it won't be born, there won't be another bastard in this family!! Enter Ren, what bastard are you talking about? Clem and Leo are quiet. What's going on, why are you both quiet? What bastard are you talking about? Leo tries, about Juan del Diablo, of course, what other bastard is there? Ren doesn't buy it, there were lots of lies about Juan, that my Dad is his dad, so how would I know !? Leo says Let's drop this disagreeable subject, shall we? But Ren, still pissed off about betrayals and lies, says I just want to make it clear that I don't want any more lies in this house, I am FED UP with lie after lie in this household!! NO MORE LIES, GET IT!!!? And by the way, where is Rosenda? She left, she is a robber, Clem interrupts, Dona Leonarda!! Celia breaks in telling them Raul is there wanting to see Renato and Leo. Clem, I'll talk to YOU later. Intense looks between Ren and Leo. Clemencia looks daggers at Leo as she leaves.

Rod has his house and his maid back, is paying the bankers, and rudely tells them to get the hell out. He will never forgive how they treated him!! The maid shoos them out. Rod sits gloating and saying Mi Casa, Mi Casa. Then a conversation about the maid bringing some young woman she knows to work there. Maybe she'll help get old Woody back in form.

We are on the boat and Juan is watching Regina start to stir and wake up. Juan is friendly and sweet, I'm glad to see you woke up, are you feeling better? Regi says don't touch me!! Juan still maintains his humour and asks her again how she is feeling. Regi looks a little shaken, and asks who took care of me, after all, it couldn't be you. Juan looks away hurt and getting angry, No, it was Colibri. Claro, of course it was, I knew it wouldn't be you! Juan says, remember we are husband and wife, it could be me. Regi says por disgracia!! She doesn't want to be reminded. He starts to go get Colibri, but then offers her some water. I don't want anything from you!!! Juan then drinks the glass of water he offered her, making a huge production of how refreshing, how good it is, he savors it, saying ummmm, ummm, this is good. As soon as he is out of sight, Regi grabs the bottle and gulps some down, saying to herself, what has happened to me? Renato, you will never know the sacrifice I made for you!

Raul is talking to Renato and Leo, he has come to invite them to a party to introduce his friends from Puebla. Sullen and drunk Renato says, sorry, Dude, Aimee and I can't make it. Leo is flustered and embarrassed and tries to cover - It's all the scandal in this family, all the terrible things that have happened lately. It's that horrible Juan, that salvaje. Raul, says wait a minute ma'am, with all due respect, isn't that Juan del Diablo your nephew?

MdR and Santos' GF are in her hut and MdR is wearing fisherwoman clothes, white. She looks relaxed and almost happy. Santos' GF talks about how Arca won't hurt her here, and Santos will soon come back and they will get married. MdR suddenly remembers to ask, where is Mirta?

In answer to that question, we see Branco by a river, he stops, startled as he sees a body in the water.

Back on the boat Juan is talking to the pescadores, telling them Regi is better. Remigio says it must have been a miracle, just as Doctorcito said, only God could save her. They are all happy she is better, the love song comes on and Remi says it's because you cared for her all night. How could I do anything else? Even though it seems to have bothered her. Coli has brought food to Regi and she is thanking him. He tells her the Capitan seems rough, but he stayed by you all night. Regi looks taken aback. Yes, he gave you your medicine, took care of you. How do you know? Because I saw him watching you sleep and he was looking at you with much tenderness. The Capitan? He looked at me tenderly? Yes, much tenderness, I've never seen him look at a woman that way. Regi says, No, no, no puede ser, because Juan hates me! He only wants me for vengeance. You can say what you want, but he looked at you like someone very special, VERY special.
