Corazon Salvaje 7/29/10 Time is Running Short for Everyone
We start with Aimee putting the luuuuuv potion in the liquor decantor and glass. She looks very pleased with herself.
Juan and MdR are out in a boat. You couldn’t pay me enough to get out in that little boat. MdR is telling Juan that the sea was the beginning of her happiness. She remembers back to getting her shoe stuck and toppling over into the ocean. JDD was her savior. They have a conversation but I can’t hear it over the waves.
Clemencia and Reggie are in the hut on the beach. Clemencia thinks the story of MdR and Juan De Dios is a very sad story of love. Reggie agrees. When JDD comes for her they will be eternally happy.
Back on the little boat MdR tells Juan that she needs to be beside his father JDD. Juan tells her not to say such things. Juan cries.
Back in the hut Regina is happy to be in love. Clemencia is very happy for her. Reggie says sit down. I have something very important to tell you. MdR told me about a letter. A very important letter from my mother. Remember you were looking for it? But that’s impossible MdR didn’t know about it. Clemencia remembers back to when Constanza gave her the letter and made Clem promise she would give it to her children. Clemencia tells Reggie yes, there was a letter. Your mother told me to give it to you when the time was right. It contains a terrible truth. Reggie is on the edge of her seat as is Viewerville.
Juan is back and talking about his mother. Clemencia thinks they need to get Doctorcito to come by and see her.
Abuelo is telling Fake Angela and Abuela that he’s got some business with Noel. Mari says ok if you say so. Fake Angela says there is no hurry. Man, I hate her.
MdR is over at the doctors talking to Remi. He’s still wallowing in whatever emotion he’s wallowing in. She tells him that he is young and strong. She knows it was he who saved Juan from the jungle that night. Thank you. Thank you so much. Look at me. Look at me Remigio. He starts to cry. She wants to give him a prayer. He gets down on his knees and cries. She gives him a big hug.
Mari is over at Noel’s office. She thinks its just super that her father is going to spend more time in Veracruz thanks to Noel. He’s happy that she gave Lulu a job. She thinks Remi is a good man. Noel agrees. (Will there be some hot monkey love in their future? Hmmmm…) Noel thinks it is a shame that there had to be a deception. Noel gets all tongue tied as he tries to say something. Mariella interrupts him and moves closer. She thinks love is the most marvelous emotion that ever existed. And she has no doubt about it.
Juan is pacing. Reggie wants him to calm down. Pablo comes out and Juan wants to know the truth. What is wrong with my mother? Her condition comes from being in the dungeon so long. Her condition is very grave. She doesn’t have much time. Juan is shocked to hear that. There’s got to be something that can be done. We’ll do whatever we have to to save her. Pablo understands his desperation and he can get a second opinion but that doesn’t really change anything. Juan begs Pablo to save her. To do whatever he can. Reggie tries to calm him down. How’s that for a kick in the head? You just find your mom after all these years and then learn she’s going to die. Reggie says he’s got to accept what is happening. He’s like--NOT. Reggie keeps trying to console him which only makes him more agitated. You have to be strong and enjoy her. Enjoy what little time she has left. Regina is going to help him.
Back in Veracruz Noel is walking with Mariella. She asks if it is ok to use the familiar with him and takes his arm. He stammers and stutters like a dork as he says oh sure. I think we know who Noel is going to end up with. Whoopie! They both deserve some happiness. She says something about Leo and we cut to said harpy.
She thinking to herself what will happen to her if they find out the truth about MdR. Frankly Viewerville doesn’t care what happens to you. We’d prefer that your fate be, well, uh--painful.
Back to Mari and Noel. He’s sure that he is destined to live without love. Mari thinks they are alike. Waiting for something that never happens.
At the jail the sheriff is pulling out bags of coins. It looks like he’s been saving for a rainy day and the weatherman is calling for rain.
Over at Pablo’s MdR looks concerned that Juan and Reggie look so worried. It sounds like they are so busted for talking to the doctorcito. Juan stammers that they uh, just came over to talk to Remi. MdR using her finly tuned mom lie detector skills knows that Juan is, well, lying. She says she just finished talking to, uh, Remi. She was thanking him for taking care of Juan all those years and she wanted to be there for Remi also like his mother was for Juan. She wants Juan to be happy and she is so glad that Reggie is there for Juan also. Pablo looks like he’s going to cry.
Jimena is running through town when she runs into (literally) Fake Angela. I personally would have like to see Jimena give her a gold old fashioned body-slam right there in the street. They insult each other and Jimena says she is happy because she has love. What does Fake Angela have? Money and things. Gabriel asked me to marry him and I accepted. See my engagement ring? For Jimena the only thing important is love. Fake Angela thinks to herself that for Branco’s love she would give all this up.
Back to Noel and Mari. Noel is telling her that she is a good person and very pretty. He’s sure that she will find a good man. She says the same about him. She gets a little flustered.
Juan is still hugging his mother. Regina says she and MdR need some girl time so she says she’ll see them later and leaves. After the girls are gone Juan looks really bummed. He jumps up and tells Remi that he needs him to be strong. He needs his help right now. Remi swears that he will be there for Juan and nothing and nobody can stop him. Juan is upset that he just found his mom and now he’s going to lose her again. I’m sad too. I hate it when he cries. Remi swears by his mother that he will be by Juan’s side.
Noel and Mari are still talking. She wants to confess something to him. It’s about Jimena. She feels something strange inside when she is with her. (Too much noise in the background. Reminds me of when my boss dictates a tape while floating in his pool and tells me he‘s at a meeting.) But I digress. He wants to ask her a question. How much do you remember about your daughter? She remembers a song that she used to sing to her. (Could this be our magical link to Jimena and Mari?)
Jimena is on the beach singing the same song. Well, I guess that answered that question. Jimena finishes singing that song and wonders why she remembers that song. More song singing. FF>>
Fake Angela arrives home and shouts at Lulu. Lulu stands up to her and says that if she is pretending to be someone she isn’t, she will burn in her own little special place in hell. We can only hope. Fake Angela glares at her.
Noel is meeting with the judge who says that there are rumors going around town that the Sheriff has committed many injustices and was bought off by the rich families in town. Noel tells him for sure that is true. He thinks the captain will help them. The Judge says he will think about it.
Reggie and MdR are walking along the water. Rod comes up and calls Maria’s name. Reggie and MdR turn and look. Dun, dun, dun.
Juan is still trying to figure out how they can help his mother. Pablo doesn’t have much hope. Such is life. Remi wants to thank Juan for all he does for him. Juan says no thank you for all you have done for me. FF>>
Rod approaches MdR and wants to know what happened. MdR says it is all his fault because he couldn’t stand her loving JDD and the the son she was carrying. Rod says he loved her with all his heart. Too bad, so sad for you Rod. She scoffs at that. She says to him love is possessing someone. He tells her it was all Arcadio’s fault. Leo had nothing to do with it. Ha! Tell me the truth right now. Dude, you can’t handle the truth.
Meanwhile, Leo is at the finca all alone. Sitting on the couch thinking to herself that everything is lost. Damn straight it is. There is no salvation for me. That’s right sister. I’ll spend the rest of my life in jail. Maybe you should just off yourself right now and be done with it. I’m sure no one in Viewerville would stop you. Anyone? No? Good. There is a loud knock at the door. It’s Renato. She tells him she doesn’t want to talk to anyone for the rest of her life. I’m sure everyone would be happy with that situation. My father abandoned you but I’m still here. You have enough to worry about without worrying about me. Your skanky wife for one. Tell me everything but don’t mention Aimee. Speak of the devil in walks said Skank.
Eloisa is handing an envelope to the dressmaker. She wants her to give it to Fed. She won’t be able to meet him tonight. She’s hosting friends of her husband to play cards. If I was the dressmaker I’d be sick and tired of those two doing the wild thing in my bed.
Two guys are walking along talking about being free when they are ambushed by some soldiers. Are we supposed to know who they are?
Back at the finca Her Royal Skankness says she can see by their faces that she is not welcome. Ya think? Renato says he’s just worried about his mother. Leo tells her to go to her room she doesn’t want to see her face. And frankly, we don’t either. She says she found an invitation to play cards at Don Fully’s house. She laughs as she swishes out of the room. Leo can hardly stand it. She doesn’t wait for the door to close to start blasting Aimee.
Rod is still trying to convince MdR that Leo had nothing to do with her disappearance. It was all Arcadio. Whatever! She doesn’t bother trying to convince him. She really doesn’t even want to talk to him. He wants to make it up to her but she’s not having any of that. She and Regina leave his happy ass standing in the street. He looks like he’s been sucker punched and he starts to cry. Awwwww-NOT!
Leo asks Renato if he’s going to accept the invitation to play cards tonight. He doesn’t think so. He doesn’t really feel like being around people. He thinks he’s going to stay home and go to bed early. Aimee is waiting for him with a glass in her hand. She still trying to get him to drink the luuuuuv potion. They bicker and he takes a drink. More bickering, another drink. She convinces him to go up and look at baby stuff. His glass is empty. Uh oh. He doesn’t feel good. He sits down on the couch. Aimee tries to get him to get into bed. She starts kissing him and undressing him. He keeps saying he feels bad. She gets his shirt off and goes for the pants. End. No!

I'm hoping Rod will do a Remegio and jump off the pier. But I want a really big, hungry shark waiting for him. Like a Great White, not one of those puny arm-biters that Remegio got.
I think Noel has met the woman of his dreams. He and Mariella looked so good together.
Leo is fretting about jail time. Jail is too easy for her. She should be sentenced to life in a small windowless room fighting off Arcadio's amorous advances. He'd love it, she'd hate it. Eventually they'd kill each other. Problem solved.
Did Renato drink enough luuvvv potion to kill him or just enough to give him the side effects they warn about with Viagra?? We shall see...
What a great title and oh, so sadly true. News of MdR's declining health was grim, especially after the previous night, where we relished Juan, Regina and MdR's delight in life and each other. Couldn't their happiness have lasted for more than one episdode?
Connie, your recap was the perfect antidote to the heartwrenching turn of events. Always all encompassing and well written, your humor was greatly appreciated: "She says something about Leo and we cut to said harpy" and "Frankly Viewerville doesn’t care what happens to you. We’d prefer that your fate be, well, uh--painful". Excellent!
xintperuvian, I like your idea of Arcadio and Leo locked together in a windowless cell for all eternity. That would really be justice!
Jeri, you made a comment yesterday about what a wonderful job EY is doing with the part. I thought about that last night when watching this and I totally concur. It takes a very strong actor to hold their own with the amazing Laura Flores. Cesar Evora does it and I think this proves Eduardo does as well. I've always thought he was an excellent actor -he can convey every emotion from anger to joy to sadness perfectly. I'm not sure that he's ever really had the opportunity to showcase his acting abilities to their full extent and hope a worthy role comes soon for him.
As Connie's letter no longer exists, MdR will likely be the one to tell Regina that Leonarda murdered her mother. Just another nail in Leo's coffin...
Enjoyed Noel and Mari's scenes and while I'm a little sad he won't end up with Lulu, I like Mari and think they will have a happy life together. Also, Jimena will be his daughter and Gabe his SIL. Not to mention great in laws. Now perhaps he will have the love and family he so richly dserves.
Diana
Does anyone else think we haven't seen the last of Arcadio? I have a feeling maybe he will be Leo's downfall. But she's doing a pretty good job on her own.
I don't think he will harm MdR as I fear she will be gone before his return.
Rod is a possibility. It did cross my mind that he also might try to take revenge on Rod and Leo by going after one of the children - Reggie, Aimee or Renato. No spoiler, just a guess. I hope not. Am fully expecting him to burst on the scene when we least expect it.
Diana
The judge asked Noel who would be a good replacement for the Sheriff and Noel said Capitan Breton. The judge said he’ll think about it. The two guys where the Sheriff and the undersheriff in disguised; it seems the Judge took Noel’s advice because Breton was the one doing the arrests.
Noel and Mari really make a good couple. Lulu was too young for him. I’m thinking the dress maker is going to use that letter, Elo left for Fed, to her advantage. XLNTPERUVIAN, I think it was just enough to give him the Viagra effect. Boy what a gal has to do to get some. It sucks to be Aimee
I think Arca is coming back. When leo was talking to herself last night, she said she missed him because he was the only one that defended her. Me thinks, she misses the dirty sex they had in his filthy room.
Xintperuvian - ITA w/you regarding Leo and Orca. It would be a perfect punishment for them.
I'm so happy Noel and Mari are getting together!! ITA w/Marisol's comment regarding Lulu being too young for either Remi or Noel. I feel Mari is a stronger match for Noel as they will appreciate one another and are more equal to one another. Every time they showed them together I clapped!
Their companionship doesn't feel forced, and I'm liking it.
I hope both of them can finally fill that person-sized hole they've been living with all their lives.
mad bess, I always appreciate Diana's kind and positive take on things, too -- and her enthusiasm for EY. :D
Of all the characters in the show, María del Rosario has the most reason for rancor; but she's the most forgiving.
Her talk with Rodrigo was amazing; her heart remains free of ill will even for him.
After she passes, I hope Juan can remember what she said to him.
xIntperuvian - see what I mean? LOL! Yes, Rod should jump off the pier and subsequently a Great White or how about one of those super giant Octopi grabs him with all eight arms and swallows him up whole :) It was great to hear MdR kindly reject him; this may sound silly, but even though this is just a tn there is a lesson for me, and perhaps for others to take from this, for as Jeri said of MdR, "her heart remains free of ill will even for him." She said before that there is nothing to gain from revenge, just more hate on everyone's part. She's right, although revenge can be sweet :)
OMG!!!! Did you all see my Noel with Mariela?? I think they make a fantastic couple! Their stroll was tender and sweet, the way they looked at each other- I hope, hope, hope that this is going to happen for them; my Noel deserves to be happy and surrounded by people who he loves and respects, and who feel the same for him. As Diana points out, Noel, Mariela, Jimena and Gabe will make a lovely family :)
As for Renato or estupido, como le llama Aimee, just desserts are just desserts. While I can't stomach Aimee, after Renato slapping her, when he started getting woozy I probably would have swung on him a couple of times myself, especially since he seems too out of it to fight back :)
OMG tonight! Can't wait!
Marisol
Yes, a lesson. This is melodrama, and one of the reasons we're here is so that great whites can rip the villains to shreds.
One of my all-time favorites is Sentimientos Ajenos, where Chantal Andere gets barricaded into a closet in a building being fumigated for cockroaches! :D
But María del Rosario brings a peace and benediction that smooths everyone's brow. She says it's good to forgive and don't waste your time on hate when you could be loving.
While Leonarda was holed up, constipated in her bed chamber, worrying oh dear what will become of her, wasn't María del Rosario declining to implicate her with Arcadio to Rodrigo?
pirate babe, I have also been wondering what kind of role they could offer EY after this. I sure hope they come up with something.
I can't imagine a life without EY now. ;-) I was planning to keep on watching until we were both in our 80's.
I thought Aimee poured all of the poison into the decanter so not sure if Renato will live. Can't figure out all the kissy kissy Aimee was doing while undressing him. I guess if he dies she thinks she will get all his money so what does it matter if she really is pregnant. I have given up on what goes on in that mind.
And I agree Connie, you couldn't pay me enough to go out in that little boat either. Feel very bad for Juan about losing his mother after just finding her. She will be with him just long enough to teach him about the right way to do things and have a happy life with Regina.
I remember wondering if the coast guard were the only law left around there after the sheriff decamped.
Now that everyone that matters knows about MDR and her TB, no one seems concerned about it being contagious. I remember my mother talking about old TB sanitariums that people diagnosed with TB were confined to. I know arid climates were supposed to be helpful in such cases also.
Even in this day and age there is resistant strains of TB. People diagnosed with it are confined with not much say about it. I saw a news special about a young man in Florida and thus is the case.
Of course this is just melodrama so we can watch Juan suffer even more loss. Which he is good at and I find completely heart wrenching.
Looking forward to watching more things unfold.
