Corazon Salvaje8/12/10 Pie Cart--1. Only Two More to Go!
We get a replay of Renato picking up Aimee’s broken, lifeless body and bringing her back to the Finca. He lays her gently on the bed. He remembers the hateful things she said that led to all this. He pulls out his gun and says always it is Juan del Diablo. He heads out into the night.
Jimena and Gabe are still on the beach. Gabe says that whatever happens, happens. There’s nothing she can do. She says she knows but she feels it. He has more important things to tell her. Don Alberto would like to talk to her. Why does he want to talk to me? Just then he appears behind them. They want to apologize for being so rotten to you. Salma confessed that she was not really Angela. It was all a lie.
Speaking of the lying witch, she is back at the camp with Branko trying to weasel her way back. Branko is not inclined to let her. He says she lied to those people and it wasn’t cool.
Jimena is going on about how awful that must have been for Mariella. Gabe agrees. She wants to go to her and console her and make her feel better. Alberto says thank you and Jimena turns around. I guess she didn’t know he was there. He begs her to come back to the house to talk to Mariella. Let’s go right now.
Branko is ready to leave and leave Salma there by herself. She begs him not to go. Various gypsy folk talk Branko out of traveling at night because it is dangerous. Well, ok then. We’ll go in the morning.
Over at Fully’s he’s busy counting and sorting his money. He needs his doting wife’s help. He makes a big show of putting away the jewelry and the money and he tells her where everything is. He even gives her the combination to the big safe in the other room. Eloisa is practically giddy. In that safe everything is in her name in case something should happen to him. There is enough money to grant her her ever desire. She says all she cares about is him. He is the important thing in her life. I think he’s giving her enough rope to hang herself. She will be the richest woman in Veracruz.
Renato shows up at Juan’s. He asks Renato what he’s doing there in his house. Renato says he needs to speak privately with him. Regina, seeing the blood on Renato’s clothes wants to know what’s up. Juan suspects something is wrong and asks Regina to go into the other room. Juan gives him the hairy eyeball and asks what he wants. Renato says that Aimee confessed everything to him about Aimee and Juan. He pulls out his gun and points it at Juan. He should make him pay for being such a traitor.
Two men in the street are talking about Aimee’s graceful exit into the afterlife. Unfortunately Gabe, Jimena and Alberto walk up just in time to hear it. Alberto thinks it is such a shame that the family has to suffer another tragedy. Jimena is upset and is sure that is what she felt earlier. Gabe feels sorry for Juan and Regina.
Renato is still pointing his gun at Juan. He wanted to help him. Include him in the family. He sacrificed everything for him. And this is how you repay me by boinking my wife? Juan pushes his gun away and tells him that they were lovers on the boat to Veracruz. But then when he found out she was a MdeO they became enemies. He didn’t know she was even married until the day of their wedding. Juan says that if anyone was to blame it was Renato. He came between Juan and Aimee. They argue some more about who’s to blame and Renato points his gun at Juan’s head again. Many times I’ve wanted to come to you and ask for your forgiveness. We must go to her and confront her together. Renato puts the gun down and looks away. We see Celia standing outside the house. Renato says we can’t talk to Aimee. She can no longer speak. Juan asks what he is talking about and starts to look worried. What are you saying? Aimee is dead. Juan is shocked and repeats Aimee is dead. Regina walks out of the bedroom at that exact moment. She doesn’t believe it. She runs to Renato and begs him to tell her the truth. It can’t be true. Tell me the truth. Renato looks sick. Celia is shocked and runs off to who knows where.
Eloisa and Fed are happily getting together at the dressmaker’s house. They have a new plan. They are ecstatic. This can’t end well I wouldn’t think. She tells him that Fully gave her the combination to the big safe. Fed says this means that he trusts us. In your dreams maybe. The dressmaker meets with Servando who gives her a large bag of money and a kiss (ewww!) and tells her she will be richly rewarded if everything goes as planned.
Remigio is in his hut trying to tidy up. What happened to his hair? He gets frustrated when he breaks some dishes and can’t sweep them up himself. He says he’s good for nothing. For nothing! He turns around to find Lulu standing there. What are you doing here? I’ve brought you some food and I’d like to prepare it for you. But if it bothers you, I’ll leave. He asks her if she’s eaten yet. She says no not yet. They look at each other. I guess that means he wants her to stay.
Regina is still freaking out over the death of her sister. Renato says unfortunately it’s true. He conveniently leaves out the part about how he was chasing her with the Hounds of Hell on her heels so he could kill her himself. She says he’s lying. Juan tries to calm her down. I wish it was a lie but it is the truth. What happened? Why do you have all this blood? She tries to shake the big guy like a rag doll but doesn’t get far because Juan grabs her--and uh, well, Renato’s really big. She wants to see Aimee. She and Renato head for the Finca. Finally left alone, Juan says it can’t be. Aimee can’t be dead. Didn’t we just have this conversation?
Meanwhile, Celia has made it to Rod’s townhouse and given him the bad news. He doesn’t believe it. He grabs Celia and makes her repeat the story again. Because he obviously didn’t hear it the first time she shouts it in his face. What happened? What happened? Tell me. She doesn’t know. He wants to know how she heard it. She heard it from Renato. Celia runs out of the house crying. Rod goes crazy and repeats Aimee, Aimee and knocks over a table. I wonder how many times he’s turned over that table during this show? He suddenly grabs his left arm and makes a terrible face. Maybe his pie cart is coming for him sooner than we thought. He falls on the couch still clutching his left arm.
Servando is reporting back to Fully. So they plan on killing me tomorrow. Hmmm… It is about time for Fed and Eloisa to pay. Servando wants to know what the plan is. Fully wants the witch to prepare a potion that will put them in a deep sleep. What do you say? Servando says you can count on me. Vengeance is sweet and something about a cold plate.
Alberto and crew arrive back at the house and interrupt Noel and Mariella in a sweet moment. Mariella is so happy to see Jimena. They hug. Happy happy, joy joy! Alberto tells Noel he needs to talk with him. Poor Noel because you know what is coming next. Raul, Gabe and Alberto are standing around acting like somebody died--oh, wait, somebody did. Alberto tells him that he needs to be strong. Raul tells him that more than ever Renato needs him. Now he’s catching on. Gabe gets to be the one to break the bad news to him. Aimee is dead. Noel has to sit. Gabe tells him it was a terrible accident. (Accident my ass.)
Over in the jail the old sheriff and his pal are discussing Rodrigo and the new sheriff. FF>>
Noel has just told Clemencia and she collapses on the floor. FF>>
Renato is still wearing his bloody clothes and pouring himself a drink. He remembers finding the potion that Aimee had hidden in her hand and he changes his mind. Leo hears the racket and comes down wanting to know what happened to Aimee. He says they had a fight and he discovered she was trying to poison him. She ran and got away. He went looking for her and something I didn’t catch. Leo says something about the dogs. Renato says the only thing she was ever interested in was his money and his position. That’s why she married me. Rod takes that moment to make an appearance. His pie cart must have swerved. Damn! You killed my daughter. He gives Renato a good smack. Then just to make his point, he smacks him again. Rod says he’s going to pay for his crime. Leo pulls him off and says don’t you dare touch my son. It’s his fault that Aimee is dead. I’d kind of have to agree with him there. Leo says it is Aimee’s fault. They continue to argue whose fault it was. Leo says that Aimee did whatever she wanted including Juan del Diablo. Renato wakes up and says what are you talking about Mother? You knew that she was fooling around with him? Rod and Leo look away. Guilty as charged. He shakes his finger at them and continues bellowing.
It looks like Lulu made some dinner for Remi. They are having a nice time together. She tries to talk to him but he says don’t worry about it. She just wants another chance to show him how much she loves him. They start to kiss but are startled when Juan shouts for Remi outside the hut. Juan barges in and sees the situation and says oh pardon me. Lulu gathers things and walks past Remi. Will they kiss or will they not? Looks like not. What’s up Juan? Aimee is dead.
Back at the Finca Renato is still yelling. He can’t believe they knew this all along but didn’t tell him. You were so afraid of a scandal. You destroyed what could have been the best thing in my life. Leo tries to comfort him but he tells her not to touch him. Rod said everything that happened was because of you. Renato wants him to tell him straight up what he’s talking about. Leo gets in between them.
Regina has managed to get past everyone and is now in Aimee’s room. She slowly walks to the bed. And I mean s - l - o - w - l - y. She looks at her briefly but turns away. I can’t blame her there. Aimee’s probably starting to look at little awful.
Back to Rod who is still slamming Renato. FF>> Leo says it is not Renato’s fault. You know perfectly what kind of woman Aimee was. Well, that certainly helped the situation. Leo and Rod argue and Leo turns to Renato and says it wasn’t your fault. Nothing was your fault. Renato wants his mom to tell him the truth. Just once. The whole truth. Rod and Leo argue some more. FF>> again.
Back to Regina. While I like a good death crying scene as much as the next person, I have a feeling this is going to get silly. She kneels next to the bed and starts in. Why? Why? Forgive me, forgive me, forgive me. So many times I tried to save you. I tried to tell you but you wouldn’t listen to me. Oh man, now she’s really crying. You have paid a high price for your whims. There are always consequences. Forgive me, forgive me, forgive me. Why God? Why, why, why? She kisses the white rose and places it on her chest? Did I just see Aimee breath? No. I guess not. While MdR’s death was as powerful as Frodo sailing off into the Gray Havens, Aimee’s death was not.
Leo is still babbling incoherently. Rod’s like, and then there was the baby. Leo laughs and says that was another one of her lies. Rod says what are you talking about. She says she suspected Aimee wasn’t pregnant when she wouldn’t let the doctor examine her. She invented the whole thing. Rod says you are lying. If you don’t believe me go talk to the doctor. Renato flops down on the couch. He looks totally broken. Maybe this will be his turnaround.

One question: Are you watching the episode that airs on Univision or are you watching the episode that aired in Mexico through the internet?
Jody
Ooh, I have a hard time imagining how Fulgencio won't kill Eloísa, but somehow I don't think he will; however, Federico is toast, IMO. I'm so glad Remigio seems to be getting over his shock at recent events and accepting Lulu. Yeah, what WAS Renato thinking with letting the dogs out on Aimee? Or was he thinking. Regina's hysteria kind of short-circuited Juan and Renato's situation for the moment. And there was no duel yet; I wonder if it's still on.
Connie, Star Trek fan, Lt. Worf and the Klingons use that saying, "Revenge is a dish best served cold." LOL I think actually Khan Noonien Singh said it, quoting the Klingons. I just looked it up in Wiki, and apparently, the proverb's origin is murky, but the current wording is credited to Wrath of Khan; amazing it made it into telenovelas.
I'm with you about Regina's crying scene; thank you so much for the cliff notes version. Regina really needs some guilt therapy. Well, now Renato knows about the lack of baby; what secrets are left? Just Jimena and Leonarda imprisoning María del Rosario?
I have not been able to watch these episodes, bur in reading the recaps I know what is going on. Now when Aimee fled the house. Ren runs after her right away. In order to find her he has to get on his horse and the dogs. Aimee running on that dress was faster than him on a horse? How did Aimee get on that horse? where did Aimee thought the withc was going to hide her? Rod is been faking that heart attack since the beginning of this TN and he always bounces back like nothing. Anyway, as you guys would say beannie adjustment time.
Melinama:
Popped in to say how proud I am of you all for sticking with this show after it migrated to WAY WAY past my bedtime! You are champs!
I agree, and we admire our recappers very much for their work. :)

I too wonder if the duel between Rod and Noel is postponed or canceled?
The downfall of Leo will be interesting. I'm hoping Orca will return and confess everything. However poor Noel and Ren will be devastated when they discover the monster Leo is.
ITA Jeri, Fed is toast. I think Fully might take Eloise out also and if he doesn't he'll torture her mentally/emotionally and probably physically too.
I think Leo was actually saying to Renato how could he set the dogs on Aimee?
Loved that Branko insisted that Salma still didn't get it right, that she should have told Mariella who her daughter is, wish he had gone right away to tell them, though. I don't get Salma deserving Branko, I don't think she is repentant enough yet.
Servando and the dressmaker, the way that is being included seems a bit odd, I wonder what the point is of a sexual relationship between them (I don't exactly want to call it romance).
Aimee's death and all the drama seems to have temporarily halted Renato's attempt to separate them. I wonder how that will come back in.
Darn that pie cart. I thought it was Rod's turn too...but I admit I would have been disappointed. "The big one" wasn't punishment enough for him. I was really hoping Renato would kill Rod right in front of Leo. To have the love of Leo's life killed by her own son... now that's my kind of pie cart! Maybe Ren should have offered Rod a nice big glass of cognac....
I thought the scene when Regina first learned of Aimee's death was much sadder than the scene later at the Finca. Why does Regina keep asking for forgiveness for not saving Aimee? Nobody could save Aimee. If Regina goes and begs Rod's forgiveness I'm gonna scream.
Saddest scene of the night: Noel telling Clemencia. I can't bear to see Clemencia cry. It gets to me every time.
I wonder what the point is of a sexual relationship between them
I'm not sure that I want to know about the depth of their physical relationship. :))
xlnt:

I agree. I loved the moment when she tried to beat Renato up but Mighty Joe stopped her, hugged and tried to calm her in front of the Last Samurai. Aracely screamed too much but it was powerful. But the endless crying next to the bed of Aimee... Not my cup of tea. Reggie darling, you're fiery and strong when you don't play the martyr, please don't became Suffría aka Cry Me A River Lass from FELS.
Mmmkay, gallery update:

the Gabe/Mariela/Servando encounter and the sad death of the Shrew
The behind the scenes photos are my favourites. That huge guy wearing Aimee's dress and wig is hilarious.

I'm not a spoiler freak, on the contrary, when I watch a show I'm looking for them all the time because I'm a curious kid. But I prefer doing it voluntarily. When this show aired in Mexico, the spoilers were unescapable on youtube and esmas. We knew when the sword fighting scene, the wedding night, Aimee's death (and how she dies), the last scenes were shot and when they were going to air. :)
Riddle me this:
Aimee sent Celia to Juan's hut BEFORE arguing with Renato, being chased by dogs and falling off a cliff.
Yet Celia got to Juan's hut AFTER Renato brought Aimee's body home and played with the gun in the parlor.
What the heck was Celia doing, and how come it took her so long to get to Juan's hut but she could get to Rodrigo's mansion in the city lickety-split?
Aimee was breathing heavily on her death bed. LOL
Rodrigo has been getting his Fred G. Sanford on at least every other day since he discovered MdR was alive.
I think the duel will never happen because 1) the MdO's will be preoccupied with Aimee's death/funeral and 2) the old sheriff and his little buddy agreed to spill their guts to the new sheriff. I see the carcel in Rodrigo's future.
Clemencia seems pretty distraught about Aimee also. She was their nana when they were little girls so although she didn't condone the things she did she still loved her.
I agree that Salma may redeem herself and tell everyone that Jimena is the true daughter. She and Branko are a cute couple. I would like to see him happy and I know that she does truly love him.
Hope that pie cart comes for Fed and Eloisa tonight. I like some of you am not sure that he will kill Eloisa but she may wish she were dead when he gets through with her.
Thanks for letting me know it was Celia peeking through the walls of Juan"s house. I thought maybe it was the long lost Arcadio returning. Did Celia ever deliver the letter from Aimee to Juan? Guess not. Aimee got in a last pull on Celia's pigtail and Rod just about threw her out of the room when she delivered the news about Aimee to Rod. Nice family to work for.
Connie, your recap had me laughing. Thanks so much and, again, you managed two great recaps in one night.

P. S. The suspense is building especially the pie truck for Fed and Eloisa. I think they'd probably wish it were a pie truck because Fully is one dangerously calculating man.
Does anyone else find it interesting that Juan does not go with his esposa to comfort her, but instead to Remigio's?
Bernadette
My only guess about Celia's tardy arrival is that she walked the long way and Renato took the shortcut on his horse. ;)
I don't think Eloisa is going to get away from Fully's revenge. I think he's plotting to murder Fed and make it look like she did it. Why else the "sleeping potion"?
Regarding that new "Final" promo at the end of the show - the scenes flash by pretty quick, but I swear I caught a glimpse of Arcadio.
Possibly could Juan be mourning the loss of his lover, even though he supposedly is soooo in love with Regina?
It just seems curious to me.
Bernadette
The man who had you locked up, kidnaps your esposa, points a gun at you threatening your life, is covered with the sangre of your sister-in-law/ex-lover, and has challenged you to dual....
please accompany my wife, I am sure she should be safe with you.
I am just sayin'...

Good points. Tienes toda la razón, but this script was written by Liliana Abud, aka "The woman who wrote the lovely Yo compro esa mujer, La otra, Amarte es mi pecado, Barrera de amor, but since Senor Ernesto Alonso died (RIP) and she works only with Mejía she went downhill". :)
I understand that he was shockedby the news. That he couldn't accompany Regina into the house since his archenemies still lived there, but she wanted to go anyway. Okay. But he should've escorted her to the door of the Finca.
Hoewever, the script has bigger faults than this. :)
Jeri:
The biggest threat in the house would have been Aimee, but she's neutralized.
Neutralized -> the best euphemism of the week. :))
Too cool that Leo, Renato, and Rod are standing around blaming each other instead of mourning their dead darling. (Aimee is a very picturesque corpse, all red and white. She should be surrounded with unfurled fans. OK, I'm sick, I know.)
Anxious to see the punishment Fully devises for Eloisa and Federico, how and when it happens.
We're inching along with the reunions of Jimena and her mum, and Remi and Lulu. I guess the powers that be in TNland are trying to get everyone to the finish line at the same time, whether they're bad or good. Sort of like cooking a big dinner, when you want everything ready for the table at the same time, more or less.
La Paloma
"Hoewever, the script has bigger faults than this. :)"
I would agree, but am enjoying it.
Thanks for the info on Liliana.

I wonder if Celia wasn't too quick about getting out of the finca herself because she was afraid of running into Renato along the way, and happened to still be there when the chaos broke out and decided, "Hell, no - I ain't going out now!" Then, of course, bad timing and a false sense of calm led her to finally creep out and hit Juan's just after Renato did.
I think that could also be why Aimee didn't head for any of the sanctuaries that might have made more sense - the last time she asked Leo to defend her, Leo ended up so scared of her own son that she ran away herself. And with having just admitted her affair with Juan, she might have suspected that Renato would expect that'd be the first place she'd go. Even if not, could she be sure that Juan would defend her in the first place, after all that's come between them since then? Regina might have tried to intercede verbally on her behalf, but physically, what more could she do than Aimee herself? The witch probably seemed like the best prospect on the basis of her supposed supernatural powers. It just turned out they were no good against Renato. (Though I doubt Aimee was able to think straight, anyway, purely because of what that kind of fear does to you.)
How fast she was able to run probably depended a lot on how high she was willing to hike up her skirts. Even if she's slower on foot, Renato still had to call for his horse and have the dogs brought out, so she might have been able to get at least something of a head start. Same with getting on the horse - I've ridden in dresses, and how well you're able to mount and move comes down to very little more than how particular you are about where they go and how they're arranged. Out of curiosity, I just went back and looked at Wednesday's episode, and it looks as though she was riding aside - so if she was able to get herself up in the first place (and that would admittedly be the hardest part), how tight her skirts are suddenly becomes much less of an issue because her legs only need to make it around the pommels, not all the way across the horse's back. I'm actually more surprised that her dress didn't get caught on those on the way down than that she was able to ride in the first place, because I'm led to understand that was a pretty serious danger of a sidesaddle fall in closed skirts.
Expecting Juan not to feel anything for her death is being a little hard on him, in my opinion. Even if she's no longer his one true love, she was still a major part of his life for some time. It would be odder to me if he didn't care at all.
Oh, and gotta love how the news spread all over town before some of the family even heard it, don't you?
