Caray, Caray!

Read Kim's original recap, the section called “Missing Recap 31: Less of Martha to love.” Then come back here to discuss it.

Capitulo 49

1. Omar refers Lety to an attorney for the embargo. Sixth-sense Caro says Alicia doesn’t seem pregnant. Jazmín wants to dance in the event, but she’s a second-string model, not a dancer.

2. Omar gives Alicia a big check for the pregnancy. She claims her baby needs HIM, not his money, but she keeps the check.

3. The kids make a mess in Wardrobe. Juana’s neice tells Saimon he has a good heart but the woman he wants ignores him. She tells Lola to put five apples under her bed to get rid of bad energy.

4. 18:10-19:15 Caro wonders why Lety’s not in the production meeting since they need her data. Marcia invites Lety to stay. See the transcript. (requested fm Marta)

5. Marta returns, post-lipo. Lopez even flirts with her.

6. Lety leaves to meet the attorney. Fernando warns her to make sure Conceptos stays in her hands (why does he say that?). Fern asks Omar if this attorney is reputable, not like the Panama contacts. Otherwise they could have even worse problems. Omar tells him not to worry; “It’ll be like a blessing from heaven.”

7. Fatima greets Fernando way too affectionately and Marcia puts her on the blacklist. Irmita counsels Lola to fix her attitude.

8. The Happy Hour Attorneys (abbreviated HaHA’s), Sanchez and Rosales, agree that they haven’t had a case in ages. Lety tells them she doesn’t want to keep Conceptos and she doesn’t want to sell it off. The embargo will be a precaution so the company will stay intact until they pay their debt.

Capitulo 50

Read Kim's original recap, the section called “Missing Recap 32: Lien on Conceptos when feeling loanly.” Then come back here to discuss it..

1. Marcia asks whether there are problems with the bank, and Fernando says they’re just a little short on cash because of the launch expenses. She gives her universal solution, “Follow me to the bedroom,” but he wipes away her kiss. Her solution doesn’t work – he still can’t sleep.

2. Lety tells the HaHAs to file the demand tomorrow morning. They want a payment advance so they can pay the bar tab. Lety reminds Tom that Conceptos will not be in their possession, only liened.

3. Saimon tells Jazmín he’ll get Luigi to let her dance.

4. The cuartel sees Alicia at the gym. Paula suspects she’s not pregnant because she’s exercising. Sara wants to tell Omar. Juana says they need proof. Marta discovers that Alicia did not get a blood test when she was hired. Later Lopez tells Ali she needs one. She’s afraid of needles.

5. The lien was published in the public record, so the banks start calling. The HaHAs have registered the demand. Sanchez tells Tomás that an agent will inventory Conceptos as part of the Demand. Ariel’s secretary reminds him that the Public Record site was updated, but Ariel’s too worried about paternity too check the site.

6. Tom brings the demand and tells Lety about the looming inventory. She panics that someone will discover the embargo. Tom tells her that with the demand, she can end up in the president’s chair, ordering Fernando around.

7. Seeing Marcia fills Fernando with guilt for what he’s done with her inheritance. He even ducks her air kiss. Omar tells him to buck up; what he needs most in this crisis is to be strong. Omar fears Tom knows about the embargo. He warns Fern to be nicer to Lety since she now owns Conceptos.

8. 46:25-47:45 Fernando goes to Lety’s office. He worries about carrying so much responsibility in this crisis. See transcript. Lety assures him that his company is in good hands. He leans in to kiss her.

Tune in tomorrow, for some very funny little scenes.
Good news! We get new exit music!
I’m going to try to include a “Tune in tomorrow” section when I can. I’ll be careful about spoilers. What if I say things like, “Somebody is in for a big shock tomorrow,” or, “Important plot twist tomorrow”? Is that too much of a spoiler? Fea virgins, please give me your HONEST opinion. (Those were just examples. They do not refer to Tuesday’s shows.)

Spanish Lesson

Cap 49. In the production meeting. I have asked Marta to write this up. She will probably post it Tuesday morning.

Cap 50. Lety’s office. Your company is in good hands.
F: Lety, store these papers carefully. Take them home and put them in a secure place. Nobody can see them, understand? My life is in those papers. Lety, you can understand, perhaps better than anyone, that this is the most important decision I’ve made in my life. It doesn’t just affect me, but also the lives of others. What’s at stake is not just my future, but that of many people. My family, the Villareals, the employees, my employees. I’m sure you understand that it’s not easy for me, obviously.
L: I know that it’s very delicate and I understand the magnitude of the problem.
F: I ask you to understand me. I’m going to be very alterado (upset / changed). We can expect very difficult days ahead, maybe even months. Everything is at stake here. They gave me a company. And look what happened in just a few months. I’m losing, Lety. … You’re going to be late. We need to go.
L: Don Fernando.. I know you gave me your company. The company of your family. But I want to say something. Your company is in good hands.
F: I know that, Lety.
