Caray, Caray!

This recap is brought to you by Marta Ivett:

Marce: (drinking heavily as if with water) Everyone has been mocking me! Everyone! Beginning with the stupid step father of yours!! He gave my inheritance to Eva!! To that lowlife!! (inmunda) Because I should have finished her from the beginning! Stupid me for not doing it!!
Leo: Stop shouting, someone will hear you!! Stop!
Marce: I don’t care that they hear me!!! Let everyone hear me!! Darn Julio!! He gave her my inheritance!! IF it weren’t for him Eva would be in jail!! She would be locked in there!!
Leo: Mom, what are you talking about??
Marce: Julio left a letter with his lawyer saying that if I removed the accusation, he would unlock my accounts!
Leo: That is why you did it!
(Dano gets to Marce’s door)
Marce: Why else would you think I would do that? He forced me!! Your sister and I planned it all very well!! The signature on the check I did turned great!! And this disgraced Eva fell hook line and sinker!! And she went to cash it!! I almost got her locked in jail for burglary!! (Dano is making faces) But… but I still can do it! I will go to the police right now and accuse her again!
Leo: No, mother, you are not going anywhere, mom! (Dano opens the door slightly)
Marce: Let go of me!!
Leo: Stop shouting! Control yourself and lower your voice!
Marce: You are right, my son. No one should find out that Eva did not steal those 25K… least of all Daniel!! I know, I know!... It was so easy to deceive him too… both of them are just stupid…

Julio is calling Justa… she insists they don’t see each other and he keeps insisting she promised to visit again. She changes her mind, now I have a life, I am married and have another life. Julio rebutes he won’t accept that, he feels she still loves him, and he will still pursue her until he convinces her to visit him again. Justa gets upset, tells him not to look for her again, and hangs up. Ricardo comes by, he overheard her calling the one on the phone.. ‘Julio’?

Leo: Stop, mom. Listen to me. Enough. you are saying a lot of silly things. Please stop.
Marce: I am not telling anything but the truth. Eva was an embezzle… when she went to cash the check for Victoria… and Daniel! He is just an idiot who believes everything! He is just like his whole family!
(Dano has had enough, he barges in)
Dano: Shut up already, Dona Marcela!
Leo: Dano, when did you get here?
Dano: Just in time to hear everything!!
(Leo runs after Dano, reaches him in the car, while Marce stays alone laughing…)
Leo: Dano, listen to me!! My mom is delirious from the alcohol! She is not well because Bruno ruined her!
Dano: Just about that is what I came to talk to her and look at the surprise I got!
Leo: Dano, don’t listen to what she said! (grabs Dano by arm to pull him out of the car)
Dano: Never put your hand on me again, you hear??
Leo: She is drunk! She doesn’t know what she is saying! She is just talking silly!
Dano: She said very clearly that She and Victoria planned the check trick! That Eva is innocent!! And that I fell like an idiot!!
Leo: She has drunk a lot!
Dano: Stop defending her, Leonardo!! I am two seconds from believing that you knew everything from the start and kept quiet!
Leo: No! I swear I didn’t!
Dano: Your mother has always been capable of the worse deeds to get what she wants!
And your sister also lost her mask! But I will not forgive her for this one for sure!! (gets in the car quick)
Leo: Daniel, what are you going to do??
Dano: What I should have done a long time ago!!

(Justa finds Ricardo laying in bed)
Justa notices Ricardo is worried and asks what is wrong. HE tells her he is not feeling bad but is worried… No, it’s not about Adriancito. … Justa asks then what is it?
Ric: who is that man who called you today?. Who is Julio?
Jus: I don’t understand. Why are you now asking me about Julio?
Ric: Tell me who is he. Why were you asking him not to look for you, not to call you anymore?
Jus: Because it is for the best.
Ric: Julio is that man from your past, right?
Jus: Yes.


Dano gets to his bedroom, he is packing Vicky’s things as he shouts:
You are a liar, Vicky! And a cheater!! How could I not realize the type of person you are?? But it is really over now!! You are leaving for good!!

Damian finds Marisol when she gets off the taxi… tells her he realizes she was not on a trip like she had said. Marisol tries to talk her way out of it, but Damian won’t buy any.
Better show up to work tonight.

Eva is checking on Tia Tilde… Eva asks her not to worry about their mother. They will not forgive her for abandoning them or for trying to muddy up their father’s memory.

Vicky gets home. She is in disbelief when she sees the suitcase packed and hears Dano tells her she is leaving RIGHT NOW!!
V: You can’t do this to me! (martyr act again)
D: Pick up your stuff and leave my house right now!!
V: I have loved you too much!! You can’t push me away from your side!!
D: You have never loved me!! All you have done is betray me a thousand times!! You agreed with your mother to come up with the check story and accuse Eva of burglary!!
V: That is not true!! What are you talking about?? Eva is a liar!! Surely she…
D: IT was not her who told me!! IT was your mother… (V is shocked)

Marisol is scared pacing around her room, she tells herself Violeta is right, she has to go. And if I don’t go Damian an take revenge on me, and he could also harm Francisco!!

V: Forgive me, I did it for love… I did not want to lose you!
D: For God’s sake, cut out the drama! Get up and leave already!! I don’t want to see you here one more minute!!
V: (gets to his knees and begins to shout nonsense and repeating she loves him)
D: Victoria, please! It is over!! Understand it once and for all!!
(Vicky faints and Dano again gets scared for her… FF>>>)

Ric: Why did you lie to me, Justa? Why did you tell me he had died when it was not true? He is alive, and has come back to your life.
Jus: I did not tell you because I did not want to anguish you. I thought that issue was over. I also told him I did not want to see him, that I married you and I rebuilt my life with you.. and I begged him to leave me in peace…
Ric: And even then he insists in contacting you?
Jus: Yes.
Ric: Alright, if he tries it again I want to know. I want to meet him so he will have it clear that now you are my wife and you love me.

At Newville, everyone is in 911 mode… (Dano, Fran and Jaqui)

Deborah tells her assistant everything that has happened at Misery manor lately… Without Ismael’s support, Eva and Alicia will never believe me.

V: (wakes up and is acting crazy) Don’t come close to me!! You want to kill me!! Those are your accomplices!! Go away, Daniel!! What did you all do to me??
Dano asks Jackie to call 911 and Fran comments that it looks Vicky has a loose screw (LOL! That is what I say when someone has gone coo-coo)

Leo tells Eva about Bruno ‘s deed on Marcela and that Marcela is now acting and talking crazy… Again Leo puts on his charm and asks Eva not to let Marce’s old deeds harm their relationship.

Carlos calls Alicia again, he got her phone number by contacts in jail. He keeps trying to get her to listen to him and apologize for his initial approach… HE just wanted to see her. He insists he wants to regain her friendship and her trust. She says she can’t forget his threats about getting revenge for his jail time. She cannot complicate her life anymore. He asks for just one outing/date… She finally gives in…

Doctor comes to see Vicky… Dano tells him what happened…(Vicky lifts her head while Dano tells the doctor so we know she is just fine and putting on a Hollywood act on them) Dano leaves the doctor alone with her and she immediately gets up and tells Doc she is making it all up. Vicky tells him she is about to tell him what she wants and then he can tell her how much it will cost her.

Downstairs at bar, Fran thanks Dano for the honeymoon, wants his old job back. Dano tells him what happened and just when he was kicking her out, she fainted.
Fran: Now that we are both here drinking and we are friends, don’t you want to tell me?
Dano: Fran, Evan never stole money from me. The check she went to cash at the bank was written by Marcela and it was Vicky who gave it to Eva!
Fran: (gets excited) I told you, boss! She was innocent!! I told you!!
Dano: Everyone! All of you told me!! Everyone knew it except for me!! You! Laurita! Jackie!! Everyone told me!! But I let myself be deceived like an EMBEZZLE!!
Fran: Well, you are right about that, but don’t take it so hard on yourself! Remember the evidence said the contrary, that she was guilty!!
Dano: It doesn’t matter, Francisco. I have no justification. I know Eva, I should have never doubted her innocence!
Fran: You are right about that. You are regretting it, right, boss?
Dano: OF course, Francisco.
Fran: Then cut it loose, go apologize to her!

(Vicky explains to Doctor what is going on, she needs time to get Dano back and her mother had told her what to do … Dr says let me guess… Marce also suggested to you to fake craziness when you woke up! And my job is to back up your ‘play’!..
V: Will you do it?
Dr: Faking craziness is not that easy to do.)

Dano: you are right, Fran. What I have to do is to divorce Victoria and apologize to Eva and try to reconquer her! She is the only woman I love!
Fran: Yes it sounds simple, boss, but I would not like to be in your shoes… But you will see, after a storm the sun will always appear and will shine.
Dano: Not that quick. Still have to resolve the Victoria issue.

(Doctor comes to see Dano… diagnosis: severe post-traumatic shock… Dano willing to take her to best hospitals, but Dr recommends the patient not be moved… need to keep them in a stable environment to avoid more crisis… )
Dano: Doctor, forgive my asking, but knowing Victoria like we do, could she be making all this up to avoid my taking her out of the house?
Dr: Don’t think so. (this is same Dr who was giving Marce the poison to kill Julio with)
Dano: (more irritated) Then God forgive me but I don’t believe her!! And I won’t let this hinder on my plans to get divorce!!
Vicky is around listening ‘you don’t think I am crazy? Then you asked for it, Dano. I will have to do something to show you.

(Eva is remembering the night of the awards show and her first kiss with Dano outside)
Eva: why since the day I decided to advance the wedding to Leonardo… I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you Daniel?
Dan: (behind her) your wedding to Leo… is a mistake.

Damian is mangling Violeta accusing her she knew Marisol was not ‘on a trip’. In comes Marisol and yells at Damian to let Violeta go.
Damian threatens Marisol she won’t tell it if she lies to him again. He wants her to get dress to go work. She says she did not come to work. She came to quit. He is shocked. She repeats what she said, he says it’s too late for her to walk out and reminds her of the money she owes him… and keeps trying to intimidate her, but she says she is tired of fear and having her mistakes control her life… she will regret it… she says she went to the police to tell them if something happens to her or her husband it was Damian’s fault.

Eva: What are you doing here?
Dano: I came to talk to you. Renata told me you were out here in the garden.
Eva: it is not time for visits. What do you want?
Dano: There are two very important things I want you to know… and after I heard you say what I just heard you say, to ask you not to marry Leonardo tomorrow or ever.
Eva: let’s not start that again.
Dano: Eva, my divorce from Victoria is definitive!!
Eva: What do I care about your divorce?
Dano: Because I will be a free man again!
Eva: Perfect! Then you can date Liliana and even marry her then!
Dano: (discouraged) Well, that is possible. But I was not thinking precisely about her.
Eva: Look, I have it clear that that woman is after you. I got it very clear the night you were kissing as we were eating. Remember? And this afternoon during the commercial recording, you were pretty charming with her. You even offered to take he to her hotel, right?
Dano: Ja… And you say you are not jealous?
Eva: No! I don’t care about that.
Dano: Well, you can’t believe that yourself.
(Eva tries to leave but he won’t let her…)
Dano: Eva! Please… sit down…
Eva: Tell me what you have to tell me and then leave.
Dano: Eva… I came to apologize to you.
Eva: Apologize?
Dano: Yes… I doubted you… and I beg your forgiveness…
Eva: I don’t understand. What are you talking about?
Dano: I know now you are innocent of what you were accused of! That you did not steal the $25K!
Eva: Of course not, Daniel! I thought… that you knew it was not true!
Dano: Well, I always kept the hope it was not true, but I have to confess that there were moments where I doubted your innocence!
Eva: Well you are a cynical! How do you dare make up that story?
Dano: It is no fake story, Eva! I am telling you the truth!
Eva: I know very well that you made up the story of the check to undermine my credibility and get me locked up in jail, Daniel!
(Dano stands up in shock)
Dano: Eva, please, you have to believe me! I never faked the check story to ruin your reputation! How would I? I was shown pictures of you cashing a check with a fake signature of mine! And then when you disappeared, I thought the worst.
Eva: I never went to no bank to cash no check of yours!!
Dano: Yes, Eva. The check you got from Victoria! Remember?
Eva: What are you saying?
Dano: Yes! We both fell in a trap! The check you cashed was not from her personal account, it was from the agency! Marcela signed that check and made me believe it had been you!!
Eva: Why did they do that to me? Why??
Dano: To split us, Eva! And at that moment it worked!!

Vicky is at Newville anxiously waiting for Dano.. she wonders if Dano is with Eva… no, Leo would not allow it… what if he is being stupid and those two are meeting in hiding?

Eva: My God, how silly of me! Why didn’t I realize that before??
Dano: No, Eva, the one who should have realized it was me!!
Eva: No wonder Victoria’s attitude when I saw her in front of your house!
Dano: When was that?
Eva: When I went to see you to clarify the story between us!
Dano: Then you came back?
Eva: Yes, Daniel. But she was able to manage the situation so that I would not see you.
(Eva remembers Victoria intimidating her in front of Dano’s house)
Eva: She told me she was giving me a chance to escape and if I did not, she and her mother would support you to get me in jail!
Dano: Wait a minute… there is something here I don’t understand… what made you think that I had made up the check story to harm you??
Eva: Leo told me that.
(Leo on phone with Victoria, Victoria is telling him Eva and Dano might be meeting)
Dano: Then he lied to you, Eva!! Leo lied to you!! He must have told you that to make you hate me more! To split us!!
Eva: No, there must be an explanation!!
Dano: For God’s sake, what??
Eva: I don’t know!! But it is horrible for him to have lied to me that way!!
Dano: Yes, as horrible as what his mother and sister did, right? Now I will definitely not let you marry him!! (approaches her, possibly holding her arms) Eva!! We need to forget about them! What we have to do is be happy together!!
Eva: (crying) No, Dano… it is impossible for us, please…
Dano: Why do you keep denying it? If you and I love each other, we have a son!! We are dying for each other!! Wanting each other!! As soon as I divorce Victoria there will be nothing to keep us apart!!
Eva: There is a huge reason … huge and hopeless reason for us not to be together! Understand it!!
Dano: What is it Eva??
Eva: You know it, Daniel!!
Dano: I don’t know!! For God’s sake! Tell me, please!!
(she is crying very upset now)

Ali is in her room wondering about Carlos’ intentions… what if I ask Tony to come along? No, those two hate each other…

Dano: Eva, for God’s sake… what can be so serious for us to stay apart??
(Leo walks in) Leo, don’t budge in!! This is a conversation between Eva and me!
Leo: I mess in because it is my right! Eva will be my wife, Dano.
Dano: We will see about that. Because first you will explain to Eva why you told her that it was I who made up the check story to ruin her reputation! Why did you tell her that?
Leo: Because that is honestly what I believed at the moment, Daniel! Neither Eva or I could understand that you thought she was a burglar! I figured it was your way of getting back at her for everything that was happening…
Eva: Enough about the issue!! I don’t want to hear anymore!
Dano: Well, I do! And I won’t leave until you tell me the reason we can’t be together!!
Leo: The reason, Daniel, is that she loves me deeply!! (some nose is growing longer while Dano takes a deep breath so he can control himself from punching that growing nose right out of Leo’s face) Understand it!! That is why we advanced the date of our wedding!! Did she tell you or not??
Dano: Yes, she told me!!
Leo: Then accept it!! Accept it and reconcile with my sister! Eva will marry me, Daniel!
Dano: My marriage to Victoria is already over!! And as soon as she is over her crisis, she will leave my house and my life!!
Leo: What crisis are you talking about?
Dano: Apparently she is faking being crazy but I am not buying it!!
Eva: Enough, Daniel, please! Leave! Leave me in peace, I beg you!!
(he grabs her arms and gets close to her)
Dano: I want to be with you and with our son. Our happiness depends on you…
(she looks down upset)
Leo: I would not have left. If he knew you know about the barbarie he committed, he would not say that, right?... Eva.. you were about to accuse him of your dad’s death, right?
Eva: Yes, I know… but something stopped me.
Leo: Whatever it was, I am glad. I understand it was not the right moment. But don’t worry. Don’t worry, it will come.
Eva: You are right, Leonardo… But you know what? The moment has come for something… for your mother to leave this house.
(Leo does not look happy…)

At the board house, Mari arrives home… Fran keeps playing the abandoned husband. Called you. My cell phone battery went dead… where were you? Or can’t I ask you that?... I love it… Did you go with Giorgio to the movies… nope… she went to the cabaret to talk to Damian and tell him she will not go back to work there anymore. Thanks to you… to your support…

Leo: Have pity (on her) Eva! I beg you! Please!
Eva: I have had enough pity for her.. And if I don’t kick her now is because she is drunk. But tomorrow she is gone!! Do you realize what she did to me?? She almost got me in jail!!
Leo: Alright. Give me a few days. Give me time to buy an apartment and get her settled. I know she has harmed you. And I support your decision. But she is my mother. Understand me. And as bad as she has behaved I can’t abandon her.
Eva: Alright. You have a month (Eva, I hope you won’t have to bury someone in that month)

Leo comes to Newville next morning and asks for Victoria… he tells Jackie maybe Vicky will eat for him.
Leo chats with Vicky, now you are playing crazy.. but Dano is not so convinced… Vicky says don’t worry, I got this… Does mom know? Yes. She went hysterical when she found out Bruno was my lover. Leo tells Vicky Bruno ruined Marcela.

Full circle? (now Renata waits on a sick bedridden Marcela)…
Marce thinks that neither Dano will divorce Victoria nor you will get your way, Bruno!

Vicky hints Leo that Rosaura (the cousin?) might know Bruno’s location, she is the one who told Vicky Bruno had left on a trip.

Marce remembers threatening Bruno whoever betrays her might even die early on.
The Buick folks are back in agency to meet with Eva, she is anxious to show them their work so far.

Dano makes it to Misery manor with a gift for Pablito. Tia Tilde lets him in to see him.
Dano: I love him from the first moment I saw him. And now that I know I am his dad,
I want to be with him all the time..
Tilde: I can imagine. But Eva will never want to go back with you. I can assure you.
Dano: Well I won’t lose hope. Besides, I want to fulfill my fatherly duties. And even if she denies my rights, I think I would be capable of any crazy deed to be with him. Right, papi?

At NewVille, Vicky leaves… Dano is leaving Misery manor… Vicky is peeking in the window while Tilde fixes something in kitchen. Vicky is mad looking for the kid… finds him in foyer in playpen… (end of ep)

Previews: the end is coming… Critical phase… we see Vicky taking the kid… Eva nervous asking everyone where is her son… Eva yells at her aunt someone took him. Last we see is crying Eva about to hug Dano…
The final episodes begin tomorrow!
