El Clon #79, Mon, June7- The Mad Scientist and his clone reunite; Cristina dances away her troubles and the coffee grounds fail to speak clearly again
Marisa tells Lucia that she is calling the police because her necklace is missing and that means someone stole it and someone is going to go jail for that.
Clara tells Carolina that, according to Fernando, the Chump only left because she threw his stuff off the balcony. Clara's conclusion is that had she not done that, the Chump would have had an affair with Malicia and stayed in the comforts of his home. Clara says that now she knows where Escobar got his last name - Es cobarde, literally, 'is a coward.' Clara tells Carolina that she is divorcing the Chump but not before she makes sure that that slut Malicia doesn't get her paws on what they have accumulated over all these years.
Es que cuando estamos enamoradas no escuchamos lo que nos gritan al oído.
When we are in love, we don't see the obvious, (literally, when we are in love, we don't hear what is shouted in our ear), says Carolina.
Carolina tells Clara about her problems in love. She is confused by Enrique's actions - drinking out of a flask at work and reeking of alcohol while only taking water when they are out together.
Leo calls Clara and says that he is coming back to Miami right away.
The 0n-the-verge-of-suicide Cristina is cheerfully working in the bar when Pablo comes in, ostensibly to wait for Vicki. He is appreciative of Cristina's physique, shall we say.
Dora tells Osvaldo that Daniel found out that he shoots blanks. Osvaldo suggests that it might be time to finally take Daniel to see Albieri.
Ya no podemos tapar el sol con un dedo.
We can't hide the obvious any longer, (literally, we can no longer hide the sun with a finger), says Osvaldo but Dora says that she won't let Albieri take her son away from her again.
Dora goes into a church, maybe TOCIM (the only church in Miami) since Daniel is there, too.
She accuses him of never loving her and Daniel asks where his father is. Dora finally capitulates and calls Albieri, who drops everything at work and rushes to the church.
She accuses him of never loving her and Daniel asks where his father is. Dora finally capitulates and calls Albieri, who drops everything at work and rushes to the church.
There is a tearful reunion.
Dora leaves the Church. Albieri confirms to Daniel that he is his father.
Dora leaves the Church. Albieri confirms to Daniel that he is his father.
Dora tells Estela that Daniel is with Albieri. She can't fight anymore.
Albieri is thinking about his scientific achievement and whether he should disclose it while Daniel tells Albieri about the cab incident and asks if Albi would recognize him in the street. When called back to attention, Albieri says of course the would recognize Daniel anywhere, any time.
Daniel starts to ask Albieri questions about his relationship with Dora and marriage to Luisa. Albieri wonders if Daniel is more like Lucas or Diego and starts asking him questions: Does he like the guitar? Daniel replies that he likes music. Does he like airplanes? Daniel says that he likes helicopters. Exactly like Diego, thinks Albieri. Daniel says that doesn't play an instrument but if did, it would be the guitar. Exactly like Lucas, thinks Albieri. He asks Daniel how he gets along with women. Is he timid or outgoing? Daniel says that he likes women, the more the better (entre más, mejor) and not loving any of them. Then Daniel says that he has always dreamed that there is one woman waiting for him and when she appears, his life will change forever. Albieri is impactado.
Once again the coffee grounds are clear as mud (maybe Zoraida should try decaf).
Veo un hombre separado de su sombra, Jade. Y tú vas a tener que escoger si camina con el hombre o con la sombra.
I see a man separated from his shadow, Jade. And you will have to choose to go with him or with his shadow.
Jade is frustrated and Zoraida says that sometimes you can only understand what the message it after everything has happened [what kind of fortunetelling is that?]. She tells Jade that the first time she saw this in the coffee grounds, it was far in the future but now it is happening in the present.
Daniel tells Albieri how as a child he would run away from home to look for him while Albieri tries to figure out how to keep all the people who know Lucas from seeing Daniel. Daniel tells Albieri that he wants to live with him now. Albieri says that he has to go out of town for two days and after that Daniel can move in.
Daniel goes home. He tells his mother that he is only going to spend some time with his father. He says that he adores her even though she was selfish in hiding his father from him. She considers telling Daniel about the AI but realizes that it is too late and that if she does, Daniel will hate her more.
Albieri returns to the clinic. Luisa answers the phone and we find out, for the first time, I believe, that Albieri's first name is Augusto. The call is from Malicia but Luisa won't speak to her. Luisa apparently won't stay in the same room with the Chump either, which is going to be awkward since they work in the same place.
Julio gives the Chump some advice about his personal life. The Chump replies that his relationship with Malicia is not a fling (desliz) and Julio had better respect his woman.
Albieri is looking at a an obviously photoshopped picture of him with Lucas and Diego when Luisa comes in. He tells her to cancel his appointments and hustles her out.
It turns out that Pablo and Cristina have a lot in common, including dancing. Their favorite song comes on and they start to dance.
Vicki sees them and leaves without being seen.
Vicki sees them and leaves without being seen.
Leo and Amalia are hurrying to the plane back to Miami. Leo has told Amalia that his uncle was in a terrible accident. [This is the kind of lie that will come back and bite him since many people Amalia may see in Miami know that Leo doesn't have an uncle or that if he does that he didn't have an accident.]
Luisa tells Malicia that she is wasting her time asking about the job in the Arab guy's bar. Malicia replies that she knows everything about Albieri. Luisa instantly assumes that she is talking about Dora's embryo switch.
Luisa hires, Anita, the original bar girl, at the lab.
Malicia guessed that Albieri was hiding something and Luisa's reaction proved her right. She doesn't know what is being hidden, though. She tells the Chump that she persuaded her aunt to give her the bar job.
Roberto tells Lucas that he should have sent Enrique with a specific divorce request including separation of property but Lucas replies that he just want to get free (zafarse) of this marriage as quickly as possible.
Pero si lo dejas en manos de Marisa te va a sacar un ojo y hasta parte del otro.
But if you leave it in Marisa's hands, she'll take an arm and a leg (literally, she'll take one eye a and part of the other one), says Roberto.
Marisa tells Enrique that she wants out of the marriage, too but she doesn't want to lose more than she already has in the marriage. Enrique replies that Lucas wants to make sure that she is well taken care (bien amparada). When Enrique starts with the time heals all wounds stuff, Marisa ends the interview. [I can't capture motion but Marisa has to stand up carefully in that broccoli rubber band dress to not give Enrique a beaver shot.]
I'm sure Enrique needs something stronger than coffee after an interview with Marisa but that's all he gets. Rosa asks hopefully if it's true that Lucas and Marisa are divorcing. Enrique says,
Pues eso parece, parece que no hay vuelta de hoja.
That what it looks likes. It seems there is no going back (literally, there is no turning the page back). Rosa tells Enrique about the missing necklace.
Marisa meets Said in a bar. He says that she looks sad. She says that she is confused when he looks at her like she has always wanted a man to look at her. She is confused when he kisses her and she doesn't know if he is really kissing her. Said says that he feels the same way and doesn't like it because that doubt means that the person is getting too involved. Then he tells her that he divorced Jade. Marisa concludes that is why Lucas wants to divorce her so quickly.
Jadiya tells Jade that she wants to go with her if she has to leave the house. Jade tells her to tell this to Said when the time comes. Said never refuses her anything and he will let Jadiya go with her. Zoraida expression indicates that she is not so sure about this.
Rania and Amina are planning with the Naz to run into Mohamed "accidentally" in the mall. [Easier said than done in most malls I have been in.] Zamira overhears the Naz making the arrangements and tells Latifa. She decides to go to the mall, too and keep Mohamed from taking a second wife.
The credits roll.

Jean: I always like the way you manage to get just the right pictures in to emphasize a scene. Excellent! I do feel sorry for Vicki, but I guess Cristina always wins the man. I hope there's somebody decent for Vicki , the loyal friendbefore this thing is over, somebody who will not be won over by Cristina's "charms" so easily.
As for Zoraida trying to make sense of the coffee grounds -- "maybe Zoraida should try decaf" LOL! Maybe she should switch to Turkish tea leaves......
Thanks again, Jean for another excellent recap. Much appreciated, amiga!

Great job, Jean! I too loved your "maybe Zoraida should try decaf" line, and also TOCIM. And, as always, I greatly appreciate the Spanish phrases.
I assumed that Malicia does know something specific about Albieri, perhaps from her nosing about in the diary he keeps. She seemed very sure that Luisa would cave, and I can't imagine that she would have been so certain if all she had were vague suspicions. ???

Thanks Jardinera. I loved your STuD recap but I don't comment since I don't watch the show ;-( .
I wouldn't count Vicki and Pablo out yet. We know that Leo is Cristina's TRUE LOVE so I expect Pablo to be available eventually and maybe he will see how nice (and nice looking) Vicki is.

It seems pretty clear from Albieri's conversation with Daniel that Daniel is an integrated Lucas and Diego. It's as if when the zygote split to create the identical twins, each of them only got half a personality. It seems ridiculous that Jade is going to fall in love with Daniel, who is half her age, just because he has more personality than Lucas. After all, it was Lucas that she fell in love with originally, although that was before Diego died.
Jean: I laughed so hard at your description of Marisa's challenge in standing up in her latest broccoli rubber band, I nearly spilled my coffee on my computer!
And I agree completely with Jardinera, you have a great editing eye when it comes to choosing photos. You have me so spoiled that I have just taken it for granted. Thank you!
Juanita: I agree, Malicia does know something. She's snooped in the Clone Diary; she's seen the pictures of Daniel as a child and hypothesized that Albieri has a son. I don't think she's made the imaginative leap that Daniel is Albieri's son in the sense that he cloned him (how could she?)
So what do you all make of that conversation between Said and Marisa? It sounds like they are starting to feel something for each other besides lust, vengeance and self-interest.

Jean, thanks once again for a terrific recap. I loved the title!
It would be great if Said and Marisa feel for each other. Wife #1 and Lucas would happily bless the couple. Wife #2 would not be happy at all and we would have a whole new plot. #2 doesn't stand a chance against Marisa.
Are we going to have another love triangle - Lucas/Jade/Daniel? Please tell me no.
Yes, Christina and Leo are destined to be together. They are miserable apart.

Thanks, Jean. You did an admirable job in describing the many scenes in this one.
I've got a bad feeling about how Said is going to respond to the news that Lucas and Marisa will be divorced. But I found the rest of their conversation completely incomprehensible. Actually, just from the expression on Said's face and his saying to Zoraida just a couple of days ago that Jade was deep in his soul and couldn't be dislodged, I thought he was saying something to Marisa indicating that he realized there wasn't any real love in their relationship. But it sounds as if you thought Said was concerned they were getting too involved.
I can't remember if we've said this one already but there is another TO: TOSSIM (the only salsa song in Miami). Pablo and Cris danced to it last night. I've love to see Cris fall for Pablo. I know Leo is more likely, but their whole relationship is ridiculous in the extreme.
Finally, now that he's gotten together with Albieri, Daniel shows a bit of affection for his mother. I DO NOT want Jade to end up with this brat.
I was sure Marisa hid her own necklace to try to pin it on Alejandro. But she's maintained even to her confidante that she's going to the police. So maybe she lost it among her possessions and thinks it's missing? Or what she plans is so rotten she won't even tell this woman she tells everything to.
I think Latifa might be planning on a little hair pulling at the mall.

Thanks all.
Re: Said and Marisa- I reported that more or less verbatim and I agree that it was incomprehensible. Maybe it means that Marisa is falling for Said. That would be great.
Re: Malicia- I think she said that she knows Albieri is hiding something but she doesn't know what it is.
Re: the necklace- I don't think Marisa thinks that Lucia is evil enough to share her plan to accuse Alej of grand larceny.
Oh let the hair pulling be on somebody else's recap!!

Thanks, Jean. I wonder if Marisa is falling for Said. If so, she will go ballistic because he is just another dude obsessed with Jade. Instead of ''Marsha, Marsha, Marsha'', let's all repeat ''Jade, Jade, Jade.'' She is a dude magnet. Marisa cannot compete despite those short, tight dresses she favors. Que lastima.
