Eva Luna #66 Mon 2/7/11 Wedding Day Woes for Franc and Mari; Marital Misgivings About Eva Persist for Bimbutt and Malevolent Marci
Cap. #65
Methinks there’s something a little freaky about a guy who calmly takes a woman’s rants. Makes you wonder if this pot will ever come to a boil and when it does will it explode like a pressure cooker or not. As we return to the hospital, poor Daniel is having to listen to Victoria’s tirade over Eva. She is telling him it frightens her to think what she would be capable of if Eva dares to enter their lives to destroy her mother or to approach him ever again. Yes, Icky hates Eva, she says, and she warns Dano to steer clear of her or else! Dan says nothing--and in that prone position, unable to move, it wouldn’t be wise! (You gotta wonder if he’s secretly asking himself at this point, “What was I thinking!”)
After Icky returns home she checks in at the kitchen. Jackie politely asks her how Dano’s doing. She says he’s recuperating and reminds her not a word to Laurita. They’ll tell her he went away on business a few days. Hospitals are no place for kids and he needs his rest. Francisco comes in a moment later and asks after Dano also. Ick-toria gives him a curt “fine”, and tells him she’ll need his services the next day. Franc tells her he’s getting married and won’t be working after tomorrow morning. The look on her face makes him apologize since he already told Dan, but she apparently hadn’t gotten the news yet.
At the boarding house, Marisol is telling Alicia that unfortunately she won’t be able to have a dream wedding because supposedly Franc’s aunt died suddenly. It’s got to be an “intimate” wedding--and that means small, adds Ali. They laugh that Mari can spend like crazy on the honeymoon instead. Yippee! The two are both as excited as a couple of schoolgirls.
Back at Dano’s, Icky wonders why Laurita hasn’t come to join her at the table for dinner. Jackie tries making excuses. Laurita comes down and asks for her father. They lie to her that he’s on a business trip. She says then she’ll eat in her room. Icky says no way! She’ll eat with her in the dining room or not at all. Laurita refuses to eat with her and is sent to her room without dinner.
Upstairs, Laurita confides in Chico that she won’t give in about eating with The Witch, and that she doesn’t believe her dad’s really on a trip because he would have called to tell her good-bye if he was leaving. Chico’s whine sounds like he’s just as upset as she is about it all. Jackie sneaks up to bring her a tray a few minutes later and tries to convince Laurita to do what the bimbutt says to get along with her and to keep peace in the house. Again, Laurita says she knows down deep that The Witch is basically a meanie.
Across the hall in their bedroom, Icky is on the phone with Dan who wants to say good-night to his daughter. Icky explains the lie they told Laurita and that it was to keep it from interfering with her schoolwork. Dan agrees that was good thinking. She reminds him also that Franc won’t be working for them as of tomorrow. Dan remembers the wedding. She says she’ll take care of hiring a new driver. FF>>
Downstairs in the kitchen, Jackie tells Franc that Dan wants to send flowers to the bride and she needs the address to send them to. He gives her the address of the apartment they had dinner in --yep, the one that belonged to one of Damian’s customers.
At the strip club, Mari and her dancer friend hug about her getting married the next day. Mari tells her not to mention it to Damian. She’s not coming back to work. The only thing she’ll do is pay him the money she still owes him when she gets back.
The next morning, Franc takes Laurita to school. She tells him she will miss him. The feeling is mutual. At the same time, Jackie goes to “The Apartment” looking for Mari. The owner says she doesn’t live there. Once Jackie explains why she is looking for Mari, the owner says he remembers her and then tells her the truth about gold-digging Marisol. Jackie gets a heck of a surprise. She races back to the house to tell Franc what she found out and to stop him from getting married.
Eva and Tía Matilde return to the hospital that morning to check on Don Julio. He’s in much better spirits and might be able to go home, it seems. He asks if Eva knows the reason he had his attack. Eva says yes, she heard it had to do with a woman that he loved very much. He says he still doesn’t know if it was her he saw because he thought she was dead. He then tells Eva that, Lord willing, he’ll be around long enough for them be able to carry out their plans for payback, his with Marcela and hers with Daniel! At the mention of Daniel and “revenge”, Eva’s face turns to stone again.
Bimbutt has come to visit Dano at the hospital that morning also. They discuss the problem with his driver. She can’t understand how a rich woman would deign to marry a lowly chauffeur. Dan says he’s a good, hard-working guy and maybe his fiancee doesn’t care about money. The Bimbutt looks doubtful. The conversation changes. Dan’s anxious to be released from the hospital. He tells her he thinks she did right by not telling Laurita about the accident. Vicky tells him about the incident at supper. He feels badly about it and apologizes for his daughter. Icky assures him she’ll do what it takes to win her over because she does love them both, yada, yada. (Wouldn’t ya love to see her nose grow like Pinocchio's every time she tells another whopper like that?)
Back at Justa’s, Mari is getting ready. She’s on the phone giving Giorgio the directions to the church. He wouldn’t miss it for anything, he assures her. It’s not everyday a regular gal gets to marry money! (Well, I hate to tell ya, but this won’t be one either!) Ali comes in then to do Mari’s make up and hair.
At Dano’s again, Franc is upset because Jackie still isn’t back and Laurita still isn’t dressed. They will be late if she doesn’t arrive soon. He leaves ahead of them to make sure at least he is there on time. He gets in the car just as Jackie gets home. Jackie races out to tell him about Marisol, but he is driving off down the road before she can get to him. She and Laurita call a cab for themselves. They’ve got to stop that wedding! Laurita won’t have time to even change out of her school uniform.
At the hospital, meanwhile, things are much calmer. Eva goes out by the nurse’s station to ask the doctor how Julio’s doing and whether he’ll get to go home. Dr. Garcia says he’s got some test results to wait for, but if they look good then he’ll be out that day. He reminds her that Dan’s still in the hospital. Eva takes time to ask if he’s okay and the doc says yes, but warns her that while Dan’s still there that Vicky or others will visit him. So, it’s important nobody sees her or finds out that Julio’s there or all their plans will be ruined. Just then he notices Icky talking to a nurse on the other side of the room. He tells Eva and says to skedaddle without turning around. (Viewerville holds its breath.) She manages to sneak away without being seen.
Dr. Garcia greets Icky and asks why she’s there. She tells him she is there seeing Dan, that he was in an accident and that, yes, they were married finally. He didn’t know, he says. He offers to go into see him and release him for her if he’s doing all right. In Dan’s room he says the other doctor is his associate, so he has seen the chart and gives his permission to let Dano go home. Problem solved for Eva and Julio.
Eva returns to Julio’s room. He’s having bad dreams and talking in his sleep about Justa, but neither Tilde nor Eva apparently understand his gibberish. FF>>
Justa, Don Ricardo, Ali and Adriancito are all going with Mari to the church. Adriancito thanks Mari for talking his daddy into letting him go. (Viewerville wonders what kind of freebie Marisol gave the jerk to get him to do that!) Francisco is alone in the church with the priest. He’s secretly worried that Mari “and her millions” still aren’t there yet.
At the same time, Giorgio is getting ready to leave work and thinks to himself that finally he’ll get to meet this millionaire of Marisol’s. Unfortunately, his car has a flat tire and he has to change it himself.
Jackie and Laurita’s cab gets stuck in traffic, naturally.
Finally Mari and the others from the boarding house (minus Terrible Tony) arrive. Don Rick walks Mari down the isle and tells her that Franc looks somehow familiar to him. She says it must be because he’s seen him in magazines since he’s part of the movie crowd. Don Rick asks where his family is and she explains he’s in mourning so it’s just him. Mari thought bubbles, “Him and his bank account!”
The ceremony begins without either Giorgio or Jackie and Laurita. The priest drones on and on about couples, about love and about honesty, but neither Franc nor Mari are listening. The only thing either of them are thinking about is the other’s supposed millions.
At the hospital again, Leonardo comes to see Dan and finds Dr. Garcia there. After niceties are exchanged, Leo thanks Dr. Garcia for all he did for his father. Dr. Garcia says he feels badly that he couldn’t do more. Leo says it was simply fated and there was nothing he could have done. The doc agrees.
Back at the church, the priest has to hurry through the rest of the ceremony without the traditional best man or maid of honor [las arras] to give their added blessings, to put the wreaths around them, or to give them the traditional coins. Eventually they take their vows and the “happy group” exits the church. Finally Giorgio arrives and races over. He explains about the flat tire [llanta pinchada]. He turns around to meet the groom. Ruh-roh! It’s Francisco!!!
We beam back, on a more serious note, to to the hospital where Julio is explaining his plans to Eva. He made Eva his heiress for two reasons, he says: first because she deserves it since she gave him so much care and affection and so he felt like doing it; secondly, because he is afraid that the poison Marcela gave him has affected his health so much that he could die at any time now and he wanted to be certain that Eva would have the money and power to confront her and carry out his plans for revenge. They’ll wait till after Eva’s child is born and he has remade her into a lady of class and bearing; she’ll return as a true lady and mistress, to take possession of all his properties and claim her rightful inheritance and place there. That day Marcela will experience life as a humiliated woman, and that will be her worst punishment!
A little later, Eva asks Dr. G if he knows anything more about the woman D. J. saw at the cemetery. He says no. They haven’t discussed it any further. FF>>
At the church, Franc tries to stop Giorgio from telling Mari the truth about him. Giorgio yells over him that he will tell her all about “this shameless man, her millionaire.” Mari wants to know what he’s talking about. Giorgio says it’s time she knows that he’s a thief and a crook! Just then Jackie arrives and she tries to stop Giorgio so she can tell Francisco the truth about Marisol. Mari tries to play innocent and Jackie tells her not to look at her like that (so innocently) because she’s got plenty of strange stories to ‘fess up to herself!!
Don Rick is with the kids during all of this and over hears the two talking about how weird it is that Laurita’s chauffeur is the guy who ends up marrying Mari, the lady who lives with them. Don Rick suddenly remembers where he knows Francisco from and races back over to the melée. He tells Justa that this is the chauffeur who delivered a box for Eva one day! Giorgio immediately tells Rick that the guy played their friend for a fool!! Jackie jumps in and asks if they know what Mari does for a living, then, also?
The scatterbrained priest comes out to interrupt the happy proceedings and tells them they’ll have to go someplace else, like maybe the sacristy, because he’s got another wedding to perform and the wedding party is arriving now. Jackie angrily says they’re not moving till everyone hears the truth about Marisol! Ali jumps in and tells her to stop insulting her friend. It’s a verbal Hatfield and McCoy free-for-all. Even the bride from the next wedding wants to hear what’s what. She wants to know who the real fraud is here! Everyone points to the opposing side. The padre comes out a second time to shoo them away, but the other bride says no. “Let ‘em stay, Padre! This is terrific stuff!”
Finally, Jackie manages to tell Franc over the din that his millionairess is really an exotic dancer! That shuts up everyone immediately. Marisol is speechless as Ali defends her and yells at Jackie that she sings and dances in a respectable club. “Right, Marisol?” Marisol won’t confirm or deny anything. She’s too mortified. Then Giorgio screams at them that Franc’s really Laurita’s chauffeur! Now Franc’s mortified and speechless. Giorgio wants them to annul the wedding since it hasn’t been consummated yet. Mari and Franc tearfully whine to each other about what their friends have said and whether it’s all true. In the end it all comes down to what matters most: “Where are your millions? “ “--Where are yours?” “--Liar!!” “--You crook!” “--You charlatan!” “--Hypocrite!” “--Just like a man!” “--Oh, and you would know about men, too!” “--You’ll hear from my lawyers!” “--You’re going to see who I really am! I’m Francisco Ramirez Conti! You’re gonna see!” The two opposing groups pull the two of them apart and drag them off. (Now that’s a telenovela wedding to remember!)
Dano and Bimbutt return home. She yells for Jackie and then claims when Jackie doesn’t show, that the no-good lazy thing must be off hiding and watching the t.v. Dan calmly continues to type up his reports on the couch and reminds her that she’s at Franc’s wedding with Laurita right now. “--Oh. That’s right.”
Eva and Tilde return home. They talk about D.J. and that Dr. Garcia says he’s getting better. Tilde wonders what’s bothering her now. Eva says it’s everything that Julio expects of her and what she expects of herself. She hopes she’s up to it. The most difficult thing will be taking revenge on somebody she loved so much. Tilde says yes, especially when he’s the father of her child.
Icky fusses some more over Dan and then gripes about Eva some more. Dan says it’s a waste of time and energy to keep bringing her name up. She agrees and then heads to Marci’s to “tell her the good news about his being back from the hospital.”
Julio keeps thinking about Justa and what he told Renata about wishing she were alive because he’d race back to her in an instant. He has a flashback to the cemetery and his shock at seeing her there. Dr. Garcia comes in and tells him the tests were fine and that if things continue like they have that he gets to go home today. FF>>
Eva tells Tilde that the reason Daniel was in the hospital was due to a traffic accident, but he’s going to be fine. She can’t deny that it affected her a lot seeing him when she least expected it. Tilde says it’s strange how life persists in reuniting the two of them just when Eva has found out she’s expecting his child. When Tilde leaves to start supper, Eva tells herself that she was a fool to fall in love. But now she has money and power, she says. So Dan’s going to hear from her --and soon!
Ick-toria tells Marci she sneaked out so she could tell her the real reason Dan ended up in the hospital. “--It was Eva! He was following Eva in the taxi when he had the accident! He told me himself!” Marci is upset at this unexpected and nasty little turn of events. She says she’d rather Eva was far the heck away from there. The bimbutt looks ready to spit nails and, if looks could kill, Eva would not only be six foot under, she’d be buried so deep she’d be half-way to China.

Jardinera- Simply marvelous!
It looks like we're entering a new chapter. Finally the Mari/Franc saga has come to an end! And now we know that Don J's plans for Eva are long term. She's not expected to turn into a ad exec in one month, but will instead study through pregnancy and not begin to execute the plan till after the baby is born. So that's like a year. That's fine by me, as time jumps are always interesting. But I shudder to think about how much of a living hell Vicky can make poor Laurita's life in that time. She just might convince Dim Dan to send her to boarding school. But then again, boarding school would be preferable to living with Vicky.

ViviDC: Thanks, amiga! I have corrected the typo's now. The boda was much more fun than I expected it to be. The bride and the dimwit priest made it priceless for me. --As for poor Laurita, I bet she'll be the one asking Dan to send her to boarding school before it's all over!
Jardinera,
YEAH!!! what a wonderful recap. When Julio told Eva that he wanted to wait until her child was born; does this mean were going to have a birth and a theft of the Baby. We better NOT!!!!!!!
LISTEN WRITERS YOU BETTER NOT STEAL HER BABY AND GIVE IT TO VICKY or MARCELLA. :(
Last nite was fun with all the Franc & Mari stuff. I'm so glad that this part of the stupid stuff is over.

MichelePA: I'm wondering what Franc's gonna do without a job now. He'll have to come crawling back to Icky and she'll probably sneer at him and tell Dano she knew nobody rich would marry a chauffeur like that. Ugh!
P.S.-- Whoah! I hadn't thought about the lay-up for a baby kidnapping. I'm sure we'll have to suffer through something like that! After all, if Marci did it once she can do it again!
Jardinera,
Maybe Eva will take on Francisco as a driver since she now has money. And that way Daniel knows what's going on and where she is living and stuff. Not that he can do anything about anything b/c he's married to bimbutt vicky.
You know I've been watching back video's of when Daniel gave Eva the car, but she couldn't drive b/c she didn't speak English, which means she couldn't take the drivers test and pass, weird Huh.
Any way hopefully her Aunt will be around to help with the baby. I really really hope Alicia doesn't steal Eva's baby give it to Leo. b/c it will be a repeat of the Julio & Justa relationship.

great recap, jardinera!!
I too fear for both of the concerns everyone else has... Laurita in the hands of Vicky for a year... and the fate of the poor baby when he/she is born... I am sure if and when Marcela finds out about it she will do anything to get her hands on him/her.
I like the idea of Fran going with Eva, except he and jackie are the only defense Laurita has when Dano is not around.

Martaivett,
I have a theory about that since Eva's going to tell Laurita about the baby, but not Dano. Then Laurita can ask her dear old dad, if she can go live with Eva,Tia Tilda, Franco,(b/c he'll all ready know that Marcella and her kids lied about Eva) and while I'm at it lets let Jackie escape the sinking ship of Daniel's house too. That way he and enjoy Vicky all by his self. LOL
I think this is a good idea?

I can't see Alicia stealing Eva's baby. Leo might try to manipulate a situation where he can arrange for the baby to be "kidnapped" and the ransom is Eva's entire fortune.
Which assumes that Eva, Tia, Julio, and Dr Garcia don't decide to keep the baby's existence a secret and have bodyguards and nannies in residence. It can't be lost on any of them that Eva's own life is in danger from Murderous Marcie and Icky Vicky.
It will be interesting to see where Francisco and Marisol end up now. I like the idea of him going to work for Eva. Maybe Eva can do a Pygmalion number on Marisol and hire her as an executive assistant.
Now... Where was Francisco at the time of the fatal accident and could he remember Leo borrowing Daniel's car?
Jacky has to stay in Daniel's place to protect Laurita and Chico. As to Icky's objection to that cute little pooch, isn't he a Maltese? Those are never out of fashion.

Urban- The only people who know that Leo was driving the car briefly that day are Dan, Leo, Vicky and Claudia. Leo and Vicky wouldn't tell Eva the truth if it meant her forgiving Dan and wanting him back. Eva won't believe Dan when she eventually confronts him. That leaves Claudia. She is a big fat ? Who knows what will happen to her or if she'll survive long enough to do any good. She's certainly not playing things smart-- trusting Marci, not bringing charges against Marci, keeping quiet about Vicky maiming the model and not even using it for leverage, and playing her hand with Leo, Marci and Vicky too soon. She's going to get herself killed.
And what role will Deborah play in all this? The preview with her was interesting.

Hmmmm! I hope the writers are reading here. We've got some great story lines started. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in some of their planning sessions!! Anyway, it makes sense for Eva to hire Franc if only to keep track of the Villanueva household goings on through Jackie! Pulling a Pygmalion on Eva's hard enough. LOL! I can't imagine Marisol making the transition, but crazier things have happened!! Of course, there would be too much friction considering the scam Franc and she played on each other. Maybe Giorgio will get her hired as a model for the firm.
As for Deborah, if the "mum" keeps mum, she may turn into a spy for Eva once she finds out the truth and realizes the whole thing was a plot to get Eva out of the way.

People,
They were taping cap 204 this Monday.
So the show is already 14 weeks ahead.
What is going to happen has happened, the writers are past this part!!

I wonder how many 'Eva Gonzalez' Deborah thinks there might be around... in previews we see that apparently Cruella tells Deborah the name of their enemy and Deborah is 'impactada'.
14 weeks ahead? WOW! they are really moving!
14 weeks ahead? WOW! they are really moving!
The first time in a week I was able to tune into the show, and my, all you know what breaks lose. Great retelling of events Jardinera!
I'm with everyone else that having the truth finally out about Fran/ Mari is so relieving. Interesting that they are still married though, so I'm thinking this may be the poster child for " Can this marriage be saved?" I keep going back and forth whether Jacqui should wind up with Fran or not - actually he's funny and all, but I sort of think she deserves better. We need a new hunk on the show.
My major gripe with Dano ( and I have a few) is the audacity of him apologizing on behalf of his daughter to Icky. Seriously you idiot? Cute idiot, but idiot nonethless. He deserves more than a stiff neck for what he forcing down the throat of his child. Argh!
Vivi, I'm with you, I would't mind a fast forward so we get through to when Eva is transformed and wreaking her vengeance...or DJ's version of it. How many episodes in this TN? Think it will get strung out?

Jar: Mahvelous, dahling...simply mahvelous.
A few questions, por favor:
When Dr. Garcia was in the room with Dano, Bimbutt, and Slime Bucket Leo, at the very end of his conversation, he said something that made Lazy Eye Leo give Dr. Garcia a very questioning look. Does anyone remember what was said? Did anyone else catch that Lazy Eyed Leo Look at Dr. Garcia?
So relieved that the Marisol/Franc fiasco is over. Are there grounds for annulment in the church?
Somehow, I can't see these two being forced to live together.
Like UA said, I hope no one kills Chico. I think that would be too much for Laurita to handle. Don J could handle losing Max because he saw Max as saving his life. I think that would be too much to ask of Laurita even as intelligent and sensitive as she is. BTW, I really do like this little actriz. She does not get on my nerves like that Santiago Kid did in STuD.
I got a good laugh out of Jacqui and Laurita in the the back seat of the taxi. The look both of thenm gave each other when Jacqui asked the cabbie to drive faster and he shot back with some stupid saying! I loved it!
Gracias, Jar!!

Anon. 2:23pm --Sure, we know they're usually ahead by 3 months or so, but this we thought was a premier run up here and that Mexico hadn't seen it yet. Not that it matters, it's just that we understand that sometimes they like to read fans' comments and see what we like or don't like about the direction their storylines take. --BTW, how did you know they were taping #204? What fan magazine/newspaper/site do you use? I'd like to follow it. Thanks in advance!
Susanita: I don't have the dvd any longer. Maybe somebody else remembers, but I thought he just said traffic is always heavy that time of day or something. As for Leo in the hospital, the doc seemed to emphasize that he was DJ's good friend and when Leo said it was rotten luck, the doc agreed that it was unfortunate and fate. I didn't know if there was a deeper meaning, being that it was fate that Julio actually was saved from being murdered. I thought Leo looked a little down in the mouth was all. He doesn't know that his mother had been poisoning his stepfather. Sorry I can't give you anything more than that.
I agree with Jar, the Dr said it was fate when they turned the subject toward Don J's death... maybe Leo was trying to read the doctor's 'poker face' to see if the Dr knew anything that he didnt. remember its supposedly been only a few days (maybe weeks) since Julio 'died'.
Jar and Marta: Thank you both for the clarification. I was probably reading more into it than was there. It's a knee jerk reaction for me not to 'trust' Lazy Eyed Leo!!
Gracias!!

Jardinera, I echo all the simply mahvelouses. Especially the aftermath of the wedding ceremony. They were slinging words back and forth so fast it was like a professional tennis game.
I loved Fran's comment while waiting for Mari to arrive at the altar for that, "This rice is cooked," and all the thought bubbles regarding ...and his/her millions.
I don't think Fran will go back to Vick & Dan. Remember, V-ick wanted to get rid of him the night Laurita disappeared, so he's on her hit list. Also, it's Jacky who is Eva's good friend, not Fran. To get Fran hired, Eva would have to let someone know where she is and that would be a risk to herself and Don Julio, not to mention Fran himself letting it slip who he's working for.
Besides, she's already told DimDumDan that she'll take charge of getting a new driver. Maybe it will be Tony???? Leo would love a spy in Dan's house. Hey, why wasn't Tony at the wedding, haha.
If it's not Tony-o, then maybe the new driver will sweep Jacky off her feet. For the time being Fran is off limits--he's casado por la iglesia. It'll take some time to get it annulled (for not consumating it). Maybe the two of them try to make a go of their marriage.
I like the idea of jumping ahead several months. But I really want Dan to see Eva pregnant and wonder whose child she's carrying.
It's going to be hard to keep Eva from getting in touch with Alicia for the next 7 months, so we can expect somebody to find her--probably Leo after all.
Did anyone notice Eva's new hairstyle in the end-credits? (No bangs) She's not going to look like parte de la servidumbre much longer.
Michele--please put that baby kidnapping plot back under your hat. I don't want to think about it. (Granted it's a good theory.)
I agree with Vivi, Laurita will want to leave that happy home. Boarding school is an option. She can't run away again and can't stand to see her dad with V-icky. The minute she's gone, Vick will send Chico back to the animal shelter--you just watch and see.

Jardinera, great recap as always.
As much as I have not enjoyed all the fran/Marisol craziness the pay off was quite fun. It was also fun seeing little Laurita and Adrian together again for a bit. Someone else said it before but the two kids in this novela are really cute and sweet.
Sorry this is so late, just got home from work, but thouroughly enjoyed reading you recap and all the great comments. 202 episodes? I was hoping this was going to be a short one.

Jardinera, priceless as usual! I didn't get to read this until after work, darn.
Ru-roh-allusion to Jetson’s dog-fabulous.
I hope Marzilla would have a bigger punishment than humiliation (humiliation + electric chair).
Icky lied to Dan, said that Laurita went to sleep, when she had not. Just pure evil.
The dog is a bichon frise (IMHO).
Daisynjay-of course it will get strung out-please, Eva will run the company after the baby is born and she is early in her pregnancy now. I can’t imagine.
Susanita-I loved that look they gave the taxi driver!
