Gala and
Julie show Rosa the hot off the presses issue of her magazine with a cover
story exposé on “hot clubs of the moment” featuring Luci in her devil girl
costume. Rosa is sure Luci won’t admit it’s her in the photos, but Julie tells
her not to worry about that. This is just one little piece of their big, well
thought out plan.
Aldo
meets with Inez, the Torreslanda computer tech. She seems willing to help him
get into the account he wants to access on his computer, until he admits the
account isn’t his. He eventually begs
and sweet talks her into doing it, but he’ll need to leave his laptop with her
overnight and she’ll work on it when she has time. He reluctantly agrees to
leave it with her.
Rod
drives and plays with his ball. No, not his rocks. It’s the ball Ariche gave
him, and he remembers the deal he made with Ariche (to take care of Luci). He calls Luci to tell her how much he loves
her, and Hannah and Melissa, who are listening in the background with Luci,
tease them. H&M want to keep
shopping. Luci thinks they’ve already done enough shopping, but they take her
into a shoe store. Later, Rod sneaks into the shoe shop and surprises Luci with
a rose. They get kissy, H&M giggle, and Luci blushes.
At the
school, Boris plans with some of his friends how they will all get to the lake
house for the party, so that everyone doesn’t have to take a car. Some will go
in his parents’ cars, some with him, etc. Lula comes over to gloat since she’s
sure Hannah’s parents won’t let her go to the party without Lula. Too bad, so
sad for you Lula. Boris rubs in her face that they already gave her permission
to go, and not only that, they gave him permission to be Hannah’s boyfriend.
Pato is
having a bit of a down moment and asks Mati if she thinks he will someday
recover enough to find someone to marry, and to have his own family. All Mati
can say, is that he’s always been a good boy/man, and any woman would be lucky
to have him.
Rod strolls
with Luci, H&M, and all the shopping bags. He asks if she found a wedding
dress she likes. The girls jump in and talk about the one dress she tried on,
in which she looked like a queen. Rod corrects them—like a princes, his
princess. Luci says she’d prefer to find a more simple dress. He tells her not
to leave it too long since the wedding is in two weeks. He then drops the bomb
on her that he wants them to have dinner with his parents.
The
Blonde B/Witches continue their meeting at Gala’s place. Gala wants Rosa to
pretend like she’s cool with Rod and Luci’s relationship until they’re ready to
give the final blow. Rosa says she can’t since she HATES that woman so much.
H&M
and Rod try to convince Luci that the dinner with the parents is a good thing.
She’ll win them over. Luci looks like she’s going to be sick. She knows Rosa
won’t react well. She fears she’ll run her out of the house. Rod says if she
does that, then he’ll leave with her. H&M says they’d leave with them too,
and bring Connie and Aldo with them. And Pato and Mati too, Luci says. They
joke about bringing Frigida along. Rod reassures Luci and kisses her hand.
Rosa
calls Luci a social climber (trepadora), and a hypocrite. (Oh, spare me! Pot, meet kettle.) Gala and
Julie tell Rosa about Don Aquiles and how Luci ran out on not paying her dad’s
debt to him (doesn’t seem to matter that payment would mean her
marrying/sleeping with the old fart). He’ll give them what they need if they
pay him. Rosa’s on board with paying him whatever it takes. Gala crows about all
their evidence against Luci-- the magazine article and photos of her, Lastra, and
Don Aquiles. (I don’t think any of this amounts to much, but whatever.) Rosa gives some bullshit justification that
the only thing they’re doing is telling the TRUTH. She then thought bubbles: “Luci
herself will cause the separation between her and Rodrigo. So I don’t need to tell the truth.” Rosa asks Gala to take Rodrigo far from here
after he dumps Luci.
Paz and
Madga find Procopio skulking around Paz’s house with some other guy. His boss
wants them to clean the house and help Paz move in. Paz and Magda run them off
and inform Procopio that Paz will move back in when she darn well feels like
it, and she doesn’t need Don A’s help, thank you very much. Magda thinks he’s
just trying to get in good with Paz, so that she won’t have his butt thrown in
jail. Ariche runs up to them, excited that his mama is going to buy him a new
pair of sandals (huaraches) for Luci’s wedding. Don Aquiles interrupts this
happy scene to bluster at them. He wants to know the wedding date. They tell
him off, and he grabs Ariche by the lapels and lifts him up to his face to
threaten the info out of him. Ariche’s not backing down. He’s a man! (Ariche has the biggest set of rocks in this
whole tn.) Magda makes him release Ariche, then stomps on one of his cowboy
boot clad feet, leaving Aquiles hopping around and hollering in pain. Procopio
watches the whole scene with delight. Magda and Ariche high five.
Rod
takes Luci and all her bags home (to the vecinidad). He won’t let her help him
carry the bags, but she can help him by taking his car keys out of his pants
pocket. Heh, heh. Luci is embarrassed at first, but then she’s game and flirts
right back as she gets the keys.
Rosa
reveals to Gala and Julie that Rod and Luci will marry in two weeks. Julie
thinks they need to get Aquiles to D.F. right away and pay him well for his
expenses (gastos), since people don’t do anything for free. Rosa notes that
Julie doesn’t either. Gala wonders how Max will react to their plot against
Luci. Rosa says he will be the first to be in agreement with the separation of
Rod and Luci. It will also suit him. With that cryptic comment, she leaves.
Frigida calls Gala with stale info—the wedding is in two weeks. Frigida sure
was slow to get that hot piece of gossip to the Blonde B/Witches.
Max
comes to the office on the phone with Vicky. He demands that they meet up in
their love nest that afternoon, doesn’t matter if she has a lot of work. Like a
good little slave, Vicky does all she can to make sure she gets there. She begs
her boss Nicole to let her go, even though they have a lot of customers that
day. (Why Nicole hasn’t fired her already is a mystery.)
Julie is
blown away by how easily Rosa gave up tons of cash to them. Gala thinks Julie
is pushing it too far. Since she’s headed out, she asks Julie to give her the
big check Rosa just wrote so that she can deposit it. Julie refuses. She’s
going to be the “administrator” of this money. They’ll use part to pay for the
photos and Aquiles, and the rest she’s keeping as her “commission.” Gala is
annoyed by this and tells Julie that she should at least use that money to pay
the loan she took out on the NYC apartment. “Did you really believe that story
that I’d taken out a loan on my NYC apt.? How little you know me my love. I
would never do that. The apartment is my only asset, and I care for it more
than I do you.” (Yes people, she really just said that to her daughter.) Pissed off Gala says she can see that, and
leaves for work. Julie blows her a kiss
and says she loves her. Then she turns to her real love, the check, and says
Rosa is the best business she’s come across in her life.
Padre
Honesto has come to see his supervisor, the Bishop (last seen as Padre Severino
in CME), about the news Rosa just gave him about Rod and Luci being siblings.
He doesn’t know if it’s true, but if it is, he can’t marry Rod and Luci. But
how does he find out if he’s bound by the secrets of the confessional? The
Obispo tells him there’s a difference between someone giving a confession and
someone taking you into their confidence and telling you something. He gives
Padre Honesto leave to speak with Max to find out if it’s true.
Rosa,
wearing an ice blue wrap dress, that matches her eyes and her icy personality,
goes to see Max at the office. We all know where he is, but his secretary has
the usual story that he left for a “meeting” and can’t be reached.
Meanwhile,
he’s waiting at the love nest and is supremely annoyed at Vicky who runs in
late. She had to finish with a client. Like a true daddy, her sugar daddy
orders Vicky to sit down in the chair. He needs to talk to her. “You know very
well that I don’t forgive lies and betrayal. Why didn’t you tell me about
Aldo?” Vicky looks like a poor little
deer in the Mac truck headlights.
Luci’s
back with the whole vecinidad gang in Estella’s apartment. They are amazed at
all the shopping bags and all that Rod is paying for. Luci says it was Melissa
and Hannah that pushed the shopping thing. Lorenzo’s ears perk up at Hannah’s
name. You mean, that pretty girl that I met? They all tease him. Luci tells
them about the beautiful wedding dresses, in particular the one she tried on
and loved. Now we find out why she
didn’t buy it. She tells them that she looked at the price tag after she took
it off and saw that it costs a fortune, even more than all the money they owed
Don Aquiles! We see in her flashback that the dress costs 60,000 pesos ($4,500
US). They all can’t believe it.
Rod
talks to Pato from the office on the video phone. Rod tells him he and Luci
will be having dinner with the parents soon to talk about the wedding. Pato
tells him to prepare himself for rejection.
Rod says that if Rosa doesn’t accept Luci, then they’ll just pack up
Pato’s stuff and move him into their apartment, because Rod won’t be setting
foot in that house again. Pato tells him not to exaggerate. He just asks that
he take care of Luci, love her and respect her, and above all, value her
love. That’s what he most desires. Rod
makes the understatement of the year and notes that Pato cares (quiere) for
Luci. Pato, with longing in his voice says, “I care for her (but he’s really
saying it in the love sense) SO much.”
Rod is clueless. He gets off the video chat with Pato because their
mother has come to see him. “Speaking of the king of Rome!” (Speak of the
Devil.)
The Ice
Queen enters Rod’s office and casually does a dust test on Rod’s things. One of
the secretaries brings in the “fashionable clubs” edition of Gala’s magazine,
especially sent by Gala for him. Rosa acts like she’s just seeing it for the
first time. The note attached says Gala thought Rod would be interested and she
hopes he likes it. Rosa makes some digs about the kind of women who work in
these places. Rod takes a closer look at the picture of Luci and says he’s sure
that’s the girl who they encountered when they went to Inferno. He remembers
because she was so pretty. He stares at the picture a bit too long and Rosa
closes it up and sends him to get her tea. When she’s alone with the magazine
she scoffs and says: “And I felt guilty because I gave you away Luciana. But
look where you ended up.” When Rod comes back, he tells Rosa news she already
knows-- he and Luci will marry in two weeks. They are the two most important
women in his life and nothing would make him happier than the two of them
getting along. He knows he loves Luci as much as his dad loves her (Rosa). (Bad
comparison dude.) The Ice Queen runs her hands along the cover page of the
magazine and says nothing. Rod says they’re coming to eat at the house
tomorrow. It looks like she’s about to
reveal something about Luci that she believes will make him change his mind,
but they are interrupted by a call. It’s Padre Honesto who’s come to see Max.
Rosa rushes out quick to intercept the Padre.
Vio
thinks that Luci should just enjoy letting Rod spend all this money on her.
Luci doesn’t agree. She doesn’t want Rod to think she’s taking advantage
(aprovechar). Lorenzo agrees with her—their family doesn’t do that. Vio suggests that they go affordable wedding
dress shopping. Fabian and Lorenzo want to go too, to buy suits for the
wedding, but Vio says they can rent them and she’ll show them where. Marianita
also wants to buy her dress for the wedding, a pink one. They all head off for
shopping, minus Estella.
Max
demands answers from Vicky about Aldo. He accuses her of having given Aldo her
phone number at the company party where they met. She denies it. Being that
Jero is Aldo’s boss, she’s sure he got it easily somehow. “Your father told me
that Aldo has come looking for you. And he doesn’t think that looks right.” He
hopes Vicky isn’t letting Aldo see her. Vicky goes all sex kitten and tells Max
of course she isn’t. Max seems to believe her for now. He gets up to leave, but
warns her: “I love treachery, but I hate traitors.” Vicky looks a bit scared but tries to cheer
herself up by looking at the pretty bracelet he just gave her. (Run Vicky!
Run!)
At the
big house, architect Hector has finished the elevator for Pato. (Wow! We never
even saw the workmen.) He has a special remote for Pato that attaches to his
finger and allows him to open, close and summon the elevator with his hand that
has mobility. Very cool! The elevator doors are designed the same as the wooden
sliding doors throughout the rest of the house. Pato tells the architect about
going to see the specialist in Boston and about becoming more hopeful every
day. Frigida listens in through the door and says to herself that it’s all a
waste of money, since he’s never going to get up from that wheelchair. Bitch.
Rosa
tells the Padre that she’s going to speak to her husband and tell the truth, so
no need for him to speak to Max. (Come on Padre! Don’t believe the crazy lady!)
Padre is relieved. If it’s not true, then she will be separating two young
people who love each other greatly. (Like she cares.) She says she knows exactly what she’s doing
and she’ll put an end to this situation. Everything will be different from now
on. (Please note that although her voice is calm and rational in this scene,
her crazy hands are working overtime. Look down Padre!) He thinks God has heard
his prayers.
Lorenzo calls Aldo. Aldo says can’t go to Inferno that night, but is this close to breaking
into the black four leaf clover account. He invites Lorenzo to come to Boris’s
party with him. He tells him to bring his “brother” Fabian along too. The more the
merrier!
The
vecinidad gang has fun in the city center looking at all the tall buildings,
eating street fruit, and shopping.
Magda
and Paz look at the fabric they bought for their dresses. Ariche thinks they’ll
look beautiful, but not as beautiful as his Luciana.
Rod
calls the jeweler and orders the wedding bands.
Gala’s
gal pals congratulate her on the cover article. Valentina (the blonde one)
thinks Luci looks pretty and reminds Gala that Rod chose Luci. They shut her up
as usual by encouraging her to eat something.
Looks
like Magda really stomped on Don A’s foot good. His toe is all black and blue, and
he’s crying like a baby as Procopio soaks his foot. He orders Procopio to go to
his house and get him the boots that are a looser fit. Yes, he wants BOTH feet
of the boots, dammit! Gala calls to set the date for his arrival. She tries to
entice him by saying she’ll pay for all the costs. Don Aquiles is offended by
the thought of a woman (vieja) paying for him. Gala tells him Luci and Rod are
getting married in a few days, so it’s urgent. She then calls Julie and tells
her Aquiles accepted, and Julie needs to go talk to Rosa, now.
Rosa has
dropped Padre off at the Church. He tells her that when she speaks to her
husband she really needs to listen. (Ha! Like that’s going to happen.) He hopes
God helps her. She says she’ll need it.
Gala
marches into Rod’s office. She’s happy he got the magazine and smugly asks if
he recognizes the waitress. Rod looks at the cover photo hard and seems to be
making some connection, but he just says it’s the young lady (señorita) who
served them at Inferno. Gala bad mouths the waitress, and Rod asks why. She’s
acting as if she knows her. She says she does. She interviewed the manager
(Lastra) and he described perfectly the kind of woman who works there. But
she’s not going to argue with Rod. She’s glad to see him. He looks good. Rod
knows she’s up to something, but since he can’t figure it out, he just gives her
a silent skeptical look and accepts her words of congratulations on his
upcoming marriage. She leaves looking smug, but then nearly loses it right
outside his door. She then cries in the elevator and says she loves him. Rod looks hard at the magazine cover of Luci once again.
Luci,
Vio and Marianita find a wedding dress store they like and send off the boys to
the suit rental place. Vio and Marianita try on matching hot pink dresses.
Marianita also has fairy wings. Luci tries on an A-line wedding dress with a
few sparkly accents. She looks
beautiful, but she’d look beautiful in anything. What she really loves about it
is the price—10,050 pesos/$750 US. (Or it could be 1,050 pesos/$80 US. I saw
this on a little computer screen and it went by quickly. Either way, a LOT less
than the other dress). They meet up with the boys, but instead of suits,
they’ve found two cute girls to spend the rest of the day with. The girls
continue their day out, having fun in the city plaza.
Julie
arrives at Casa Torreslanda before Rosa returns and orders her usual mimosa to be
brought out to her on the lawn. Frigida takes the opportunity to continue her
espionage with the Blonde B/Witches and relieves Mati of the duty of serving
Julie. She also brings her designer bribe bag with her, using the silly excuse
that it needs some air. LOL! What she really wants is for Julie to keep her
promise of filling the bag up with pesos for all the info she’s been passing
on. Neither she nor Julie realizes that Pato, who now has more freedom of
mobility throughout the house and grounds due to the new elevator, has seen
Julie pass a check to Frigida. Frigida says it’s not easy for her to pass the
info on quickly because Mati is always watching her. Julie tells her that
everything needs to work like clockwork and Frigida is a key piece. Pato
surprises them both by wheeling up. He coldly asks how Julie is. He wastes no
time in saying how strange it is that she just gave a check to Frigida. Frigida
hightails it out of there. Julie makes
up some b.s. excuse about giving Frigida a check so that she can buy flowers
for Rosa, since Frigida surely knows Rosa’s favorites. Pato doesn’t believe a word of it, but Julie
is saved by Rosa’s arrival.
Procopio
has made the mistake of walking by Ariche with Don Aquiles’ comfy red boots.
Ariche slips a lizard into one of the boots. The scamp! At Magda’s house, she
and Paz are talking about Aquiles’ reasons for trying to make nice lately.
Magda knows it’s just because he’s scared that Paz might throw him in jail,
which has made his rocks shrink to pebbles. Paz isn’t actually sure she wants
to move back into her house, without her Galdino and her kids. Magda asks her
to stay with her permanently and they can keep each other company. Over at his
office, Don A. is still being a baby about his toe. He gets a nice little
surprise when a lizard tries to run up his leg as he puts on his comfy red
boots. Poor Procopio gets the blame, and nearly gets the business end of the
Don’s belt.
Julie
reports that Aquiles is ready to come to D.F. when Rosa gives the signal. Rosa
thinks the perfect time will be when Max takes Pato to Boston to see the
specialist. No one in the family will be here to defend her. Right on cue, Max
comes home and confirms that he and Pato are leaving in two days for Boston.
That’s the day they will attack Luci, the B/Witches decide.
Don
Aquiles meanwhile justifies taking revenge on Luci to himself. “You humiliated
me. I lay my fortune and properties at
your feet. And the worst is that I lay my heart at your feet. And that’s what
hurts me most.” Procopio interrupts
these musings, and he and Aquiles plan an evening of wine and food, because
life goes on. Luchita is listening at the door and is excited that Don A has
put so much thought into their night of amor. She runs off to get herself
pretty—lots of perfume and a sparkly top.
Oscar
calls Connie to invite her out. Upstairs in the big house, Pato is showing
Hannah and Boris his cool elevator remote.
Max comes in and stares through Boris. “What did you say your name was
again?” Poor Boris. Max and Pato plan the Boston trip. Pato is happy they’ll be
back in time for the wedding and asks his dad for a big old hug. Max happily
obliges. Boris invites Pato to his
party, but Pato wants to be able to go on his own when he does. Hannah gets all
swoony about how beautiful Luci looked in the wedding dress she tried on. Boris
puts his arm around Hannah and says that hopefully soon she’ll be trying on
wedding dresses too. Hannah looks uncomfortable. Max clears his throat, looks
Boris up and down and calls him muchachito (little boy). “Aren’t you going a little
fast, *Boris*?” (Major eye roll from Max.) It’s not fast for Boris. He’s been
in love with Hannah since the first day of grade/primary school.
The boys
finally come home to Estella’s. Serena is fast asleep on the kitchen table,
exhausted from her day job as a nurse and her night job at Inferno. The boys
wake her up to get ready for work. Lorenzo speaks about being on the cusp of
something big with Aldo.
Aldo
meets with Inez the IT girl. She hasn’t gotten to his laptop yet, but she does
have a decoding disc she was going to use later. Aldo sweet talks her again
into letting him try with the decoding disc and takes his laptop back. He says
she’s the kind of woman you can’t find these days. She’s an extinct species!
Vicky
gets home and tells her dad about the hard day she had. She goes to start
dinner, and he leaves for the bakery.
Vicky scolds herself and says she will be left like the dog with the two
sandwiches (el perro con las dos tortas)—with neither her Osito, nor Aldo. She
calls Aldo, but then hangs up quickly when her dad knocks on the door. He
forgot his keys. She thinks better of calling Aldo. Max will kill them both if
he found out, and her dad would die of shame.
Julie
and Rosa have taken their plotting indoors. Rod calls Rosa to say he’s not
coming by to see her that evening because he’s preparing dinner for Luci at his
apartment. Rosa is so NOT down with that. It’s not proper for him to be alone
in his apartment with that muchacha. Rod reminds her that that “girl” will be
his wife and there’s nothing wrong with it. They will be coming for dinner at
the big house tomorrow. Julie hears the whole conversation and then prepares to
leave just as Oscar arrives to pick up Connie. Julie gets offended that he
invited Connie out and not her. Sand has taken the place of Oscar’s rocks this
evening, so he is shamed into asking Julie along too. She then invites Carola
to some out with them! (Oh, Oscar! Really dude?) Ever the lady, Connie hides
her true feelings about this arrangement pretty well and they head out. Rosa
shakes her head at these strange modern dating games. Julie calls Gala and
informs her about Rod and Luci’s dinner.
Luci is
all alone at Vio’s cooking up something delicious. Rod arrives and convinces
her, with some work, to come to his place for dinner instead. He wants her to get to know the apartment that will be THEIR home, and to chat about wedding
plans. He gives his boy scout’s honor that he will bring her back home early. Later at the apartment, Luci and Rod are
finishing off a romantic candlelit dinner with kisses, when all of a sudden
someone turns on the lights. It’s Gala! She says perdon, but sure as heck
doesn’t mean it. Luci are Rod are both shocked and pissed. Rod asks what the
heck she’s doing there. She says she
thought he wasn’t home and she was just coming to pick up her things. Luci’s
had enough and picks up her purse to go. Rod stops her, puts his arm around
her, and says that the one who’s going is Gala.
Rosa
tells Max that Padre was looking to speak with him earlier about Luci and Rod.
(Cue Max eye roll.) Rosa tells Max that the Padre wanted to speak to him about
the wedding—a wedding that can’t happen. (Cue heavy sigh from Max.) Mati
interrupts to give Rosa her medication. Rosa protests that the medicine makes
her feel worse, but she takes it. (Oh, please let that be Prozac.) They
continue their conversation alone. Max wants to know what fantasy Rosa made up
for the Padre. “It’s reality. Yours and mine. Because of your bad actions, hate
is coming after those we most love- our kids.” (Cue major stink eye from Max.)
Gala
continues the innocent act. She’s sorry, but how was she to know they would be
there? “This is MY apartment Gala.” Gala reminds him that he gave her a set of
keys. Rod tells her if she needs to get her stuff, do it tomorrow when he’s not
there. He’ll let security know to let her in tomorrow. He tells her to take her
blonde ass out of his house and to leave the keys on the cabinet. Gala’s
parting words are to Luci. Luci can rest easy. Gala only came to get what’s
hers, not to steal what belongs to another woman. Hint, hint. Luci is so hot,
she won’t even let Rod touch her. He promises it won’t happen again.
Max
tells Rosa that the only one doing their kids harm is Rosa. Now, what the hell
fantasy does she have in her head? Rosa tells him that Aurora’s child is not a
fantasy. She’s just as real as the two of them.
Max is about to leave the room in disgust when Rosa’s next words stop
him in his tracks. She tells him that the little girl isn’t dead. She’s
Luciana. (Cara impactada de Max.)
In a
karaoke restaurant, Julie and Carola are warbling as Oscar and Connie look on
and laugh at them. Oscar proposes a toast to Connie. Julie and Carola drink to
that, and it looks like they have drunk to many other things that evening.
While those two order more drinks, Oscar and Connie have a private chat. He
notices that she seems really worried about something. She admits she’s really
worried about Rosa. Oscar tells her not to worry because Rosa loves to suffer.
If she’s not suffering, then she doesn’t feel good. Julie jumps in and blames
Rosa’s problems on Luci. Had she not come along, then Rod and Gala would have
been married by now and pregnant already. Connie has a look of thank the Lord
that didn’t happen on her face. Connie pokes fun at Julie about all the
grandkids calling her grandma. Ah hell no, says Julie. She’s Julieta to
everyone. Julie to close friends and family (and grandkids). Connie toasts to
Abuela Julie and shares a laugh with Oscar.
The
intense revelations continue at the big house. Max wants to know what the hell
Rosa is talking about. He can’t believe
the baby never died as SHE led them all to believe. Now that she’s told the
truth, she says her soul can finally be at peace. (I don’t think that’s the way
it works, Rosa.) “Now you know why Rod and Luci can’t marry? They’re half
siblings!” Max still can’t get over the fact that she has LIED to him all these
years! “But now you know the truth.” She walks out of the room like that solves
everything. “It’s your turn Maximino.
Let’s see what you do with this truth I’ve just given you.”
Upstairs,
Aldo and Pato have the decoder disc in his laptop and begin trying to break the
password code. They have it up on Pato’s big screen. All of a sudden Max walks
into the room. Uh oh. Aldo nonchalantly walks over to and in front of the big
screen so that Max can’t see the black four leaf clover. He and Pato exchange
nervous looks. Luckily Max is too distracted by his recent conversation with
Rosa to notice. Aldo’s cover is nearly blown when his phone rings and he
refuses to move from his strategic spot in front of the screen to answer it. It’s
Vicky, but he’s too late to catch her. Pato scolds Aldo for still going after
Vicky, since Max won’t like it. Aldo points out that it’s she who called
him. They continue trying to break the
code.
Gala
calls Don Aquiles as soon as she gets home. Unfortunately, Procopio is the only
one at the office. Gala leaves a message that the Don needs to come to D.F.
right away. She’s making all the arrangements for him. Procopio then brings
champagne to Aquiles at home. He’s
lounging on the couch in his purple satin robe and red boots. (Let that image
sink into your brain.) Before Procopio opens the door to Luchita, Aquiles tells
Copio to remember the “plan.” Luchita is
more than ready for her night of loving.
Rosa’s
in the house chapel and tells God and the Virgin that now she has been relieved
of her sin, and now no one can accuse her of the disgrace that’s befallen them.
(Oh boy, is she delusional.) “Now I don’t owe you anything, Aurora. Now it’s
Max, your lover, who has been charged with this truth.” Mati comes in and tells
her she should be resting. Rosa tells her she’s told Max that Luci is the child
he had with Aurora. Mati tells her she doesn’t know that this is the truth.
They are only her suspicions based on her jealousy. Rosa is sure that now that
Max knows the truth, he’ll want to send Luci far away. “And what about Claudio
Linares? What’s to become of this poor man who thinks his daughter is
dead?” Rosa says to let him stay as he
is—let him keep thinking Aurora was a saint and his daughter died with her.
“God, our Father has illuminated me.”
She thinks God has given her the power to resolve the whole matter in
the best way possible. (Crazy!!!!) “Thank you God. Thank you.” Mati looks on in
horror.
At the
apartment, Luci is still ticked off, and Rod is still apologizing. “This
apartment is where you were going to live with Gala, the woman you were going
to marry.” (I wouldn’t want to live there either. Plus, he and Gala did it in
the bed too.) Rod has her look at him and tells her they were born to be
together. “I love you so much Luciana, that it’s impossible for me to love you
more. This is your house, and here we will live together.” She promises to live
there at his side and they kiss.
As Pato
sleeps, Aldo continues to try to break into the account. Finally the code is
broken! But there’s another one right after. He gets to work trying to break
that one too.
Max
finds Rosa in the chapel. He has her swear there in front of God that
everything she told him is true. She swears it. He then swears in front of God
that he had nothing going with Aurora. Luci is not his child. "She’s the child
of Aurora and Claudio Linares.” Rosa looks impactada, but does she believe him?
