Corazon Salvaje - Monday, June 28 - Ren starts to search for Juan; Juan and Regi are falling in love
* On the “LuzBel”, Juan is telling Regina his very sad, depressing tale of how he had to bury his father by himself during a torrential thunderstorm. Juan cries, covers his face and apologizes. Regi is compassionate and understanding and asks if anyone was there to care for him and his dad. He tells her that his dad died trying to locate her father, Rodrigo, but with no luck finding him.
* Leo and Rod argue about Rod’s insistence in supporting Renato’s crazy bull-headed idea about seeking Juan and making him pay. Rod is bull-headed himself and says Juan is to blame for all the bad luck in the family. Leo grumbles about Aimee and her baby.
* Reg and Juan kiss (oh, a romantic first kiss!) He pulls away. She asks why he kissed her? He says he was emotional and it just happened. They have had a really emotionally charged day today and especially tonight when he told her his story.
* Celia brings a tray to the bedroom. Aimee isn’t hungry. She asks Celia if she can still trust her. Celia says yes, she can. Aimee asks where her husband is? Celia tells her in the private men’s lounge, alone. Aimee thanks her.
* Juan is sweet and compliments Regina’s beauty and compassion. She mentions if he compares her to Aimee. He says he is only focused on her. Regina tells him something sweet and then smiles and says, ‘they’re married.’ He kisses her sweetly (twice) and leaves to go up on deck.
* On deck, Juan thought bubbles that he is in love with Regina but at the same time is afraid to love her. She is after all a Montes de Oca.
* Regina sits in the cabin and smiles, thinking about her hubby, Juan de Dios.
* Ren is in his lounge, with his cigar robe on, relaxing with his brandy and his cigar. Aimee enters. He asks what does she want? She misses him so terribly much and tries to seduce him into going to bed upstairs with her. It doesn’t work - he isn’t interested. She decides to stay there and talk with him. He doesn’t want to talk with her. She mentions his drunkenness - he is irritated. She backtracks and rewords it as his hyper-emotional actions lately. He grumbles at her about his true feelings and anger over looking like a stupid fool. She tries to talk. He stands up and starts to back her up to a wall as he grunts his ideal plan and a threat to her. He walks out of the lounge. She is stunned and follow him out to the stairway. He is forced to listen as she screams her reasons for him to call off his vendetta search for Juan and Regina. She doesn’t want to lose him; she doesn’t want their child to be fatherless. She keeps trying to touch him and get close to him. He continually backs away from her and tells her ‘don’t touch me!’ She cries, begs and rants for him not to follow through on his vendetta - that he is only fueling her father’s hatred for Juan. She would rather suffer the wrath of rejection and hurt and insults from him and the family. She is defending their marriage; her love for him; her sister’s feelings. He doesn’t listen and walks silently upstairs. She sits and thinks that he can’t leave her; he just can’t.
* Clemencia is thinking about Regina and the possible confrontation to come between Ren and Juan.
* Regina opens the window in the cabin. She is smiling and giggling (like a love-struck schoolgirl). She skips as she leaves the cabin.
* Celia grins as she brings Clemencia a letter that just arrived for her. Clemencia sees it’s from Regina. Celia is hovering around trying to read over Clemencia’s shoulders. Clem tells Celia this is private and to leave now! Celia leaves in disgust. Clem reads the letter and is so happy to know that Juan is being a total and complete gentleman with her. Clem thinks she will show Ren the letter - in hopes it will stop his crazy vendetta plan once and for all.
* Reg appears on deck and asks to join the group meal. They say she is always welcome. Koli says she’s the wife of capitan. Juan is very happy to have her join them. The group toasts and celebrates.
* Aimee stops Clem in the front entry. They argue about the letter from Regina. Clem tells her that Juan is being a gentleman with Regina. Aimee goes ballistic and has a temper tantrum. Aimee screams that she hates her sister now more than ever. Aimee stomps away. Clem thinks Aimee is a cruel, selfish, heartless brat.
* Ren meets with police chief at the station office. He grumbles and tries to pursuade the chief to pursue Juan and capture him. Chief explains why he isn’t doing that. Ren drops a bag of coins on the desk and asks again for the search warrant. Chief sees the bag and agrees to start the investigation. Ren is relieved and leaves. Chief mutters about Renato as he looks at the coins.
* On the ship, on deck, Juan and Remi talk as Juan walks around and checks the sails. Remi asks what’s wrong? Juan stutters and says there’s nothing wrong and changes the subject. Remi knows Juan too well and knows he is in love with Regi.
* Ren goes to the home office and starts to argue with his dad about his vendetta pursuit of Juan. He will rescue Regina from Juan’s grasp, no matter what. Noel doesn’t like his son’s attitude and determination and words “no matter what” and argues with Ren. Noel tells him this is a travesty! He tries to argue and reason with Renato to drop the whole thing at once. Renato is too focused and bull-headed; he has it in his head that he has to rescue the poor innocent defenseless Regina from the evil clutches of the wild monster Juan del Diablo. Noel wonders again about his reasoning. Ren mentions Aimee. Clocks chimes. Ren then tells dad his opinion about Juan and leaves. Noel mumbles Ren’s opinion about Juan.
* Juan and Remi continue their talk on deck. Juan really wants to be happy and be able to live and love but is confused by his spirit and his feelings. Remi gives him advice about what real love is. The discuss the difference between passion and real love. Juan equates passion with what he felt for Aimee and love with what he feels now with Regina. Juan says this is his source of confusion. He truly loves Regina but is fearful because she is a Montes de Oca and will deceive him also. Remi tells him that Regina is honest and won’t hurt him like that. He tells Juan to just be in love and be happy. He leaves Juan alone to think.
* Noel and Leona are discussing Ren’s determination to go ahead with his vendetta against Juan, and what may happen. Noel gives his opinion. Leona disagrees and gives her opinion and mutters that he is useless. She leaves. Noel shakes his head in disbelief.
* On the deck, Juan and Regina sit back to back on a crate. He gives her a lesson on all the commands he yells to the crew. She laughs. They discuss the next port of call on the itinerary and her duties as part of crew when they come into port. She jokes with him about being his prisoner and wonders what her punishment will be. He leans in to kiss her - they stop and laugh.
* Ren meets again with the police chief. Chief informs him what he was able to discover from the port authorities about the location of Juan’s ship. Ren is pleased. He wants Juan arrested for kidnapping Regina. Chief says she is Juan’s wife legally so they do have every right to be together. Ren grunts and wants his permission to take a ship out to go after Juan. Chief balks and refuses. Ren offers up another bag of coins. Chief advises that Juan is very dangerous and to be careful. Ren knows what he’s doing - this is personal. He leaves. Chief laughs as he counts his latest payoff.
* Regi and Juan talk on deck. Juan is worried about Ren and wants to know the secret about the letter she gave to Koli. She refuses to say anything; she only makes Juan upset. He calls for Remi to come over and he leaves. Remi asks Regi if she can’t tell that Juan is truly scared of losing her. Regi is stunned and explains to him that the letter was for Clem so she won’t be worried. Remi is surprised and wants to tell Juan. Regi asks him not to do that. Remi explains how many people have deceived Juan in his lifetime. Regi says she would never do that to Juan. Remi gives her some advice and leaves.

It seems we have more of Juan and Reggie recognizing their growing love for each other and thank goodness for the wisdom of Remi, the couples and life counselor, who seems to be much better than Dr. Phil. And Ren is sailing forth on his foolish voyage of vengeance. Can't wait to see this episode,

Jody: This was a lovely recap that perfectly reflected the romantic awakenings of Juan and Regina.
I was keeping a mental scorecard of the besos and it appeared you were as well: "Reg and Juan kiss (oh, a romantic first kiss!)" and "He kisses her sweetly (twice) and leaves to go up on deck".
Adventure, intrigue, lust, mayhem, etc. are all necessary ingredients in novelas. But all too often these overshadow what the pure essence should be: love, pure and simple. Juan and Regina's story is enchanting and believable. Romance on the high seas - it doesn't get much better than this.

They will be gobbling up those kisses and hugs like starving people. That was cute when Regina was playing along as one of the crew; she's getting a chance to bloom, too.
Is it too freaking much for Clemencia to show Renato the letter saying Regina is fine -- BEFORE he goes to the sheriff's office?! I guess it must be.
That was so frustrating. She should have headed straight to Renato with that letter. At least now Clemencia is becoming convinced what a scum bag Aimee is.
I have kind of a hard time with Remigio first being Juan's big brother and then being his father figure. I'm getting whiplash.
I understand Juan needed a father figure early on; but in fact, he did have his own father with him for a few years, tragic though it was. Remigio is just too cute to be Juan's dad figure; I'm going for the big brother.
Oh, just tell Juan the letter was for Clemencia, Regina; and now she fixed it that Remigio can't tell him either. Stupid misunderstandings.
Aren't they/we lucky Colibri is such a heavy sleeper (most kids are). Otherwise we would not have had that great emotional moment leading to those sweet kisses. And just what more does Juan think could have happened had he stayed? Reggie was already sleeping with one man that night- Colibri. No way was he going to give up the chance to snuggle with his Capitana to let Juan try to take things to another level. :)
Jeri-I agree that Clemencia should have went straight to Ren with the letter and also Reggie should just tell Juan who she really sent her letter to but then our story would end sooner.
I am really enjoying this show and hate for it to end.
Videos:

favourite moment:
"Why didn't I stay with her? Why didn't I sleep with her?"
-> I don't know, dumbass. Maybe because Colibrí, aka The Best Contraceptive is sleeping in your bed?
And I love the "We're married" part. The actors are cute in this scene.

Reggie, didn't Remi and Santos tell you that that yellow thing you wrapped around your head is a tablecloth, not your newest post-habit scarf?
3
I wanna marry Remigio. Right now. :)
Juan cries a new ocean... again... Boy, you're challenging Jack Shephard from Lost. :)

(it's from another uploader, so the new scene starts at 1:23)
I like that Regina del Diablo became a real mariner who know the sea quite well.
And...
- So now am I part of the crew, too?
- You've decided so, didn't you?
- Yes, and I didn't regret it. Sí, mi capitán!
Cuuute. :)
But often I want to slap both of them. Juan has irritating trust issues (He truly loves Regina but is fearful because she is a Montes de Oca and will deceive him also -> *headdesk*), and Regina is pride and stubborn like a mule. Just tell him that the damned letter was sent to Demencia.
Diana:
Juan and Regina's story is enchanting and believable.
I'm glad you like it. I told you that the show will be great after episode 74-75. :) These events should've happened in episode 40-50 (maybe 60), instead of extending the Aimee-Juan-Love Cave storyline. I think in the first months the creators forgot that the female lead is the blonde Aracely, not the redhead one, and much less Jimena.
But I forgive the writer and the producer for the boring episodes because the beautiful Luzbel and the awesome Finca scenes were worth the wait. The Clem-Ren-Aimee-Rod-Leo-Noel conversations are frakking entertaining.
Lynda, well, yeah, I don't want the story to end sooner, LOL.
I'm not usually hard on the characters even when they're stupid, but I think Aribeth has got the right of it with "Demencia."
Lynda, I don't want this to end either.
Jeri, I share your frustration with the misunderstandings but am comforted by the fact they will need to be resolved which will take time. And if this means more EY screen time, well then, I guess it's a sacrifice I will need to make! :)
Diana
Looking forward to more of the luna miel.
Rosemary
Thank you Aribeth for the links - I'll have to look at them later when I have a little more time.
IMHO, I think Clem was actually heading for Renato's room to show him the letter but Aimee headed her off at the pass and distracted her.
Jody :)
Clem thinks Aimee is a cruel, selfish, heartless brat. Ya think?? I guess Aimless never pulled Clemencia's hair or bitch slapped her so it took her a while to figure this out. Now just hold that thought Clem.
And what the heck was that bit with the matches? I thought maybe Aimless was going to burn down the finca - cause if Aimless ain't happy, ain't nobody gonna be happy...
Ren grunts and wants his permission to take a ship out to go after Juan....Ren knows what he’s doing Sure he does. Just like he knew what he was doing when he got married. Has Ren ever even been on a ship? Maybe he'll spend the whole time seasick. Would serve him right.
Regina, for gawd's sake, just tell Juan the letter was for Clemencia. Maybe he'll "punish" you with more kisses.
Yes, totally frustrating about the letter. I am afraid that when Ren comes to the rescue Juan will be confirmed in his suspicion that Regi wrote to him and will think she wanted him to come. Not a spoiler, just looks like that's how it is being set up. We haven't had that much time for them to even be in love for it to be messed up already!
GinCA - Remi better than Dr. Phil, LOL!!
This novela is so much fun, though, I just love its colorful, swashbuckling beauty and romance!
xint -- LOL. I liked your comment about Renato suffering from sea-sickness while on his rented ship.
for those who are interested, i just discovered that Chayanne put the CS2009 theme song (Me enamore de ti) on his new album "No Hay Imposibles".
Jody :)
Yeah, when I see things like matches in novelas de epoca, I always have to go and look up whether they are anachronistic.
And in this case, the answer is "it depends." They did have so-called safety matches in the time period, according to wiki; but a different formulation than we have now.
Something interesting: "A predecessor of the match, small sticks of pinewood impregnated with sulfur, were invented in China in AD 577 by Northern Qi court ladies desperately out of tinder and looking for a means to start fires for cooking and heating while military forces of Northern Zhou and Chen besieged their city from outside."
Well, we always knew Aimee was the kind of kid who played with matches and/or fire. I also wonder what the point was.
I also wonder what the point was.
My two cents: she's a freaking, unbalanced, dangerous, half-crazy witch. In other words: just an ordinary MdLoca.
OT
Thank you for the information about the matches. I slightly remembered that there was a Hungarian element in their story, and I was right: "The noiseless match was invented in 1836 by the Hungarian János Irinyi, who was a student of chemistry."
But as you said, these matches were different from the ones we know and use. Btw, the women of this telenovela wear polyester dresses, their dress code is completely messed up, the hair colour of Aimee is unbelievably unnatural, and I'm sure that the magnificent Luzbel (I envy the cast so much for working on that ship) is way too modern for the 19th century. :)
What took her so long!
Gracias for the recap Jody. I can't wait to see what people's lips get up to tonight :)
And Aribeth, thanks for those videos. The romance is absolutely charming, although the misunderstandings seem so unnecessary. Oh well. As in life.
They just have to tease us with those trust issues, don't they. Juan needs to move on with the wooing of his not-so-reluctant bride.
La Paloma
ITA w/those of you who want Reggie to tell Juan about the letter before silly Ren shows up.
I am also really enjoying the Juan and Regina's love story. It's very sweet and something neither really expected.
I'm not sure that you were trying to be humorous, but there are some dryly amusing lines in this recap. For example:
The one mentioned by Kat:
"Clem thinks Aimee is a cruel, selfish, heartless brat."
and this:
"Ren grunts and wants his permission to take a ship out to go after Juan. Chief balks and refuses. Ren offers up another bag of coins. Chief advises that Juan is very dangerous and to be careful."
Those strike me as so funny.
I still have to watch this when I get home. I wonder how the CCs will be tonight.
Carlos
some of the scenes 0 especially when distrust prevails) are excellent.
At least i hope that Univision will switch the telenovela for the last 30 episodes to an early time slot.

He says that he felt an overwhelming desire to kiss her. He says we spent a great day together, I told you my story and when I see your look, your smile I couldnt resist anymore and I had to kiss you. I wanted to enter a little into your soul. He then says that when he kissed her, he felt something he has never felt before and she made him forget those other passionate lips. She says Aimee and he says don't mention her name and ruin this wonderful moment. Reg tells him that she also feels full of new and unrecognizable strength. I have a desire to let myself go without resistance. Juan says as if you belonged to me. She says we are married.
makes you melt :-)
