Caray, Caray!

Marta sent this to me to post - thanks Marta!

We get a repeat of Leo teasing Danny boy about Eva ‘asking him for’ the earrings to match her necklace and Danny Boy saying it feels like they are talking about two different women. Leo tells Dan Eva even promised him to use them on their date. Danny Boy is in disbelief… Leo ads that Eva was very excited to get the earrings… have told you many times, money wins points with the pretty faces… you have only interacted with her a couple days, I see her daily. She is just like all of them women… just the same.

The secretary comes in to summon both boys to meet with Madame Arizmendi…

At Villanueva’s, Eva is there to get her purse back, but seems Danny Boy took it with him. Even though he told Jackie he would send it back to Eva with Francisco.

Back at the office, Mata-Hari is excited about having a board meeting to present the new business opportunity… she won’t give them any advance tips about what it is all about. However, she asks Danny and Leo for discretion, not to tell anyone else yet.

At Villanueva’s Eva is talking wonders about Laurita… she is lovely. Jackie adds on ot the sweet talk. Jackie tells Eva that the one that hired her was The late wife of Danny Boy, Viviana, who, as Jackie speaks of her, sounds like she was a real sweet angel. Viviana died of a heart attack rather suddenly right after coming from a party at… guess where… at the Arizmendi castle!! She was fine when they arrived, but early next morning had the heart attack.

At Justa’s, they are preparing for the party, Justa says the cake needs a bit more sugar. Adriancito jokes about it being the reason Marisol has not married yet, Schmuck-tony laughs out loud and when Justa walks away he calls Marisol old maid. Suddenly they spot Ricardo coming home and they all hide everything… he comes in and seems to suspect something is going on…

Bruno calls Matta-Hari just as she expects the call. Everything is ready for the ‘show’.She reminds him she is prefectionist and expects everyone to be ready on time.

At Justa’s everyone is still in kitchen having a good time, Tony is actually sweet with Ricky for a change… Justa asks Ricky if he was not going to be at the gym all day, Ricky says his student/mentoree cancelled on him. Tony uses the chance to get Ricky out of there for a while inviting him to a chess game they have been talking about for a long time.

Back at the office, Victoria arrived since Matta-Hari also invited her to the meeting. Vicky lies to Danny Boy saying she called his house to ask about Laurita’s health. Dan is pleased she remembered (AARRGGGHHH!!!).
Board meeting has begun!!

Ricky beats Tony, apparently very fast ‘Jaque Mate!’… Ricky is leaving, but Tony manages to get him to say about what time he should be back at the house. Around 8pm. Again, Tony seems to be on his best behavior mood planning the surprise with Marisol.

Damian is outside the house and sots Ricky walking out. Follows him.

At Board meeting, Matta-Hari calls in the surprise, about a dozen models, more men than women (LOL!) waltz into the board room… of course the top model would be Victoria… and all under the command of a new associate… Bruno Lombardi! This totally surprises everyone at the table, the only one that seems happy is Victoria… Dany asks Matta-Hari what is the meaning of all this. Marcela says its about the glamorous world of modeling. Leo is confused. Is Bruno your associate? No, OUR associate. Our ad agency can expand its services by having its own modeling agency, which would translate into savings in production and lowering our costs to our client. Bruno has prepared proposal folders… When he is about to give a copy to Dan, Dan won’t even lift his hands, obviously not pleased at all with the ‘surprise’.

Outside elsewhere in city, Damian and one of his thugs are still following Ricky into gym…

Back at Villanueva estate, Laurita is home from school. She tells Jackie that she remembered she always gets a gift from her dad when she is sick. Since she remembers her dad was also sick, she wants to buy something very special for him. Jackie offers to take her to a place that would have everything she could think of.

Back at Board meeting, Bruno is done with his presentation. Vicky is elated to be the top model in the new agency. Dan says he has some comments but would rather talk to Matta-Hari about them in private. V-icky tries to pitch to Dan in favor of the deal. Leo pulls Bruno into his office and is irate with him about not giving him any advance notice. Bruno bails himself saying Matta-Hari told him not to tell anyone. Leo says he smells something odd… Bruno says I know… I brought more men than women… Leo says don’t be stupid, know what the problem is? I know you very well… too well.

Danny is doing same with Matta-Hari, he does not want to take the main focus/selling point of the company away from what they are known for, to come up with creative and original campaign themes. He also is totally honest with Matta-Hari and says he is not pleased with her bringing that whole proposal without consulting them first in private. We know nothing about this guy, how can you make him our associate overnight without getting to know him? Not only your interest but Don Julio’s are at stake here. Matta-Hari says trust me, your future mother in law, in her ability to determine what is best for us. Dan says he wants to review the contract they sign with this guy very thoroughly. Once he leaves Matta-Hari calls him stupid and says if he insists in getting in her way, she will elliminate him just like she did with his wife, his parents… idiot… (boy this woman has some large baggage in her closet/conscience!!

(we have a preview of ‘Triunfo del amor’ with Maite P and William Levy.. very soon)

Ricky is at gym training some young boxers…

Back at the office, Bruno and Matta-Hari, he asks if she liked the presentation, she loved it. She loved the figures he presented. And the idea of bringing the models along was great. Bruno says that was the goal, but the only one that seemed to buy into the deal was Victoria. Leo was not so happy and her future son in law was not happy at all. She says she took care of him. Bruno is ready for next step. Matta-Hari says there is one more hurdle.. her husband. We need his money and signature to count on the capital for the deal. Bruno leaves after kissing her hand. She caresses her face with it (EEEEWW!!)

Ricky is leaving the gym… Damian and his guys raid him. At first Ricky is defending himself but it is too many for him and they give him a beating… apparently noone in the gym heard anything even though it happened just outside the door. Ricky is conscious but fairly beaten up.

Eva gets to the house. They tell her it is Ricky’s bday. They tell her to hurry and shower so she will be out by the time Ricky gets home.

Adriancito asks Tony to help him blow more balloons… Tony is in a good mood tonite.

Laurita and Danny are having dinner, Jackie is kidding around with Laurita telling her Eva was complaining about her… No, just kidding. On the contrary, Eva said Laurita was a very cute girl and loved taking care of her. Laurita tells Danny that maybe Eva was also getting sick. Tells him the night she took care of her, she was crying, as if she was hurting. Danny stays pensive.

Alicia finds the earrings, and tells Eva is getting all the guys crazy, one kisses her and gives her flowers and the other one gives her expensive jewelry. Could he also be falling for Eva? Eva reprieves her. Alicia puts the earrings on. And insists that both men are in love with Eva. Eva keeps brushing her off.

Still at Villanueva home… Dan asks Jackie about Eva’s visit today. Jackie says she came by to get her purse. Did you send it with Francisco? No, sorry I forgot. (LOL!)

Eva is putting a very modest but pretty dress on. Alicia keeps insisting in Eva telling her all her adventures with the two guys… how is the man that kissed you?
Alicia: How is that man that gave you the best kiss of your life?
Eva: Look. At first Daniel was very irritating. It seemed like he was there all the time just to bother me. But then after that he changed gradually and… he is a very sweet man. He is very loving with his daughter… he has a beautiful glance… his eyes… yes, he looks at me in a way… he makes me nervous… and when he comes close… I get scared…
Ali: And you dare say that you are not falling in love with him?? Just look at yourself!!
Eva: (brushes her off yet again…) I am not in love with him… Lets go to the darn party…

Seems Ricky is late coming back home. Marisol asks what Ricky is thinking of not getting home. Justa jumps on her back to ask isn’t that something we should be asking you? Marisol puts two and two together and asks Justa if she is not jealous… Justa says no, by the way you owe me this month’s rent… don’t forget… Marisol says to Adriancito ‘she is jealous.. VERY’.

When Eva and Alicia come out Tony compliments both of them on their outfit but Eva is clearly not in the mood to jump for joy… They all hear noises at the door, gather up and begin to shout ‘HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!’ but Ricky comes in and drops on the floor in front of them.. they all come running to him scared…

(we have a macy’s commercial with Jackie and Laurita walking out LOL!!! Never seen that!! Them merging a commercial with the characters in the novela just after that scene)

At Justa’s they are all giving Ricky first aid (biggest first aid kit I have seen in a private home!!) Marisol is not dumb and tries to get Ricky to confirm that it was Damian and his thugs who did this to him. Marisol wants to run out to confront them but Ricky grabs her hand and does not let her go… Everyone else helps him convince Marisol to stay. They tell Ricky it was Adriancito who came up with the idea of celebrating Ricky’s birthday. Ricky gets real smoochy with Adriancito and tells him he would take that beating again because he feels very fortunate… to have him. Adriancito is his best birthday present ever!

A while later they are still caring for Ricky… everyone is spreading around, some are going back to their rooms… Ricky says in a little while we will all party hardy… Francisco calls Marisol’s cel.. she says she is in middle of a rehearsal of a very tough scene… Francisco on his own side says his dumb secretary had arranged an appointment for him too. Dan calls for Francisco and he gets really nervous and almost screws his plan.
Dan asks Francisco for ‘a favor’.

We see Bruno talk to the mystery person again… he says the plan is almost in place, he could care less if some innocent heads fall right along with his target… all he wants is to ruin her (my guess is he is referring to Matta-Hari… wonder what relative of his does she have in her victim list LOL!! Could this guy be blood-related to other characters in the show? LOL)

Don Julio is playing video games LOL!!!... in comes Matta-Hari. He guesses she came to talk about THEM again… she says nope, I came to talk about a business deal you will love. He puts two and two together… ‘for which you need my approval and my money’. She responds ‘you are right, and I expect you not to deny either to me…

Back at Justa’s the music is on, Eva, Adriancito and Marisol are dancing very happily… in comes Danny Boy and Eva almost jumps right up through the roof… if she was just a bit taller she would have broken through it… Danny also looks scared… are these two supposed to be teenagers??

Justa and all her tenants jump on Danny to ‘make him feel at home’, esp Marisol. Ricky greets Danny nicely and then makes a funny remark to Danny about the purse under his shoulder (LOL!!) Danny says it is Eva’s, she left it at his house and he came to bring it back to her. Eva predictably says ‘you shouldn’t have bothered’. Everyone is still right within 4 feet of Eva and Danny as if they were all ‘alcahuetes’ (escorts?)
Marisol says we just have one more guest… they won’t let Danny leave… he is more than easily convinced to stick around for a while longer.

At Arizmendi castle, Matta-Hari is making her pitch to one-foot-under… he correctly guesses Daniel is not very happy with the idea… Matta-Hari whines saying he seems to care more about Danny’s opinion than his own son. HE reminds her Leo is not his son but he loves him as such. Leo just is a numbers boy, but does not have business vision (as Danny). Julio insists in learning what Daniel thought, or should he call Dan personally to find out? Matta-Hari keeps pitching the idea as ‘expansion for business matters’…

Eva introduces Alicia to Daniel…
Ali: You ar the ‘famous’ Daniel.
Dan: What?...
Eva: Alicia, please…
Ali: Nah, its just that Eva has told me much about you. (realizes she screwed up and offers to serve him some food).
Eva: He is leaving…
Dan: No, really I am in no hurry, I can stay a while.
(Alicia leaves them alone)
Dan: Then you did tell your sister about me?
Eva: Well, I think I mentioned you when I met you.. you would not think I talk about you all day long, right?
Dan: No, of course not.. (LOL!! He would remember he does that very thing)
Eva: And.. how did you know where I live?
Dan: You forgot that once my driver brought you?
Eva: Ah yeah, Francisco…

(Marisol brings him another drink)
Dan: I am so well cared for that I don’t want to leave.
(Marisol leaves again)
Eva: Why did you bring my purse yourself?
Dan: I don’t think I could lie… I was dying to see you again.

Julio: My answer, Marcelita… is… NO!
Matta-Hari: But Julio, you cannot deny me this!!
Julio: I have just done it, Marcela…
Matta-Hari: I want to do it!!
Julio: Perfect! Do it with your own money then! But don’t count on one penny of mine for it. Nuff said!! Final answer!
(Matta Hari leaves in a huff)

(Marisol spots Francisco outside, runs back in so she won’t break her fake persona, tells Alicia to go get the ice herself. Tells Alicia she is supposed to be living in a mansion in Beverly Hills… Alicia comes out and runs into Francisco… but nothing else happens there)

(Matta Hari in her bedroom is cursing loudly at the picture of her with Julio on her dresser. She swears every day his end is coming closer and closer.. she will finish him off and then she will do with his money as she pleases…)

Vicky arrives at Daniel’s … Jackie invites her to look for him even behind the window treatments… (Vicky is not Jackie’s ideal boss either lol!)… nope, don’t know where he went or when he will get back.
Vicky says she will wait for him… Jackie asks what if he does not come back home until 4am? Vicky says for his own good, hope not.


Jackie goes up to Laurita’s room to admire the expensive gifts Laurita got for her dad and to warn her that maybe she won’t get to give them to him, Vicky is downstairs waiting for him too…

Back at the lovebirds…
Dan: Your housemates are very nice, very warm.
Eva: jaja Yes, they are very good people. Know something? I was very surprised by your visit. I would never have imagined you would come here.
Dan: Well, then we are even… because… I never imagined that you existed.
Eva: Why do you tell me things like that? You are playing with me, right?
Dan: Noo! I am not playing with you and I am not trying to make fun of you! I simply… (always) say what I feel.

Alicia comes back to the house, tells Marisol seems Francisco left already…

Back to lovebirds…
Eva: Maybe you should go and not tell me anything else.
Dan: That is impossible. There are so many things I want to tell you… Starting with the kiss the other night. It was an impulse we both felt! (she looks at him as if she is hanging on his every word) Something that came from inside like… like a voice that told us… go ahead and kiss already, you are both dying to.
Eva: you are a liar.. how can you tell me things like that?
Dan: I am asking myself the same thing, Eva! I am also surprised to feel the things I am feeling!
Eva: (upset) Please be quiet, I beg you…
Dan: (smiling like only Guy can) You are very pretty (tonight)
Eva: (can’t help but like the compliment but thinks it better) Know what? You better leave already! … thanks for bringing me my purse…. And good night…
(Marisol brings him another drink)
Dan: Ay… I thank you so much but… I really need to leave now… I had a great time but… sorry… excuse me, good night.
(as Dan leaves, both Marisol and Alicia charge Eva)
Ali: Things between you and Daniel are more serious than I thought, Eva!
Mar: He is seriously hooked.
Ali: Yeah…

(Dan gets home to an unexpected ‘welcome greeting’)
Vic: Good evening, my love… Now it turns out that you sneak out on me at night? Where were you? (Vicky!!! Are you a teenager spoiled bratt?? Did you never grow over 15??)

Previews:
Dan: Are you smelling me?? (ROFLOL!!!)
