Por ella soy Eva #51 9/26/12: Eva- Mario, You Are The Father!!!

Pluto and Oneismo are at a bar and Pluto is thinking of an ingenious plan regarding Helena and Lalito.  When he has finished whatever he is planning, Helena will simply adore him.

Eva and Mimi are discussing the fact that Samantha left the company, which is a minus because she may have been able to help solve the missing money problem that Juan Carlos (JC), has been blamed for.  Eva felt that she wasn’t a truthful witness; she was as false as her boobs.  Eva tells Mimi to get ready because they have been invited to dinner with Adriano.

Helena bids Lalito goodnight.  It’s the last night that he will sleep at his grandparent’s house because tomorrow he will begin a new life with his mom.  He is going to miss living with his grandparents.

Ah ha, the old Eduardo is back, Angry Bad Dad, is humiliating Silvia.  Helena sets him straight, stop humiliating my mother.  Of course Silvia chimes in- oh he has a heart condition, (yeah right), well he is strong enough to yell and carry on.  Helena lets him know that he doesn’t have a physical problem; the problem is with his soul.  He says that his problem is his disrespectful daughter.  (I must have missed something, because Helena was not being disrespectful in her words or her tone)  Then Silvia tells Helena that she would never believe that she would speak to her father like that.  (Listen- Angry Bad Dad and Silvia deserve each other-punto).  Helena begs her mother to come and live with her and Lalito but Silvia declines.  Angry Bad Dad has suffered; I can’t leave him, blah, blah blah.  (Sorry, but I stopped listening and started to daydream)  Helena like all of viewerville cannot understand why she would defend him. Helena (like the good daughter that she is) will always respect her mother.

Fernando is listening to soccer game and Marsela wants to talk about sex, since the “kids” are asleep.   Marsela wants to send the kids to her mom for some alone time with Fernando. He is too busy listening to the game. (Why does she bother?) Marsela suggests that they go to a hotel as newlyweds, but Fernando is still listening.  The team scores a goal and Marsela stomps off. (Okay, I don’t know about any of the other women in viewerville but when its football season, unless I’m watching and cheering the games, I ‘m basically invisible until after the Super bowl.)

Eva, Mimi and Adriano are in classy bar listening to a violinist.  Mimi needs music with a little more “ump” as she drinks her beer in a mug. (A real classy move)  She asks Adriano, if he had thrown in the towel in the love department.  She also tells him that love can be right under his nose.  He can’t see it, but Eva lets him know not to be ridiculous, love is right under his nose as she wink, winks to Mimi.  He feels that his house is getting larger and larger. He is so alone. Is he peeking at Eva?

Angry Bad Dad looks lovingly at Lalito as he sleeps.  How empty this house will be without you.

Eva calls Helena to check up on her, as he/she kicks off her shoes and spreads her legs open. Helena is excited making the last minute preparations for Lalito.  Eva would like to accompany Helena but Helena doesn’t want any more problems with her Angry Bad Dad.  Helena does want to give her Angry Bad Dad any reason to spoil that happy day, so Eva can come over to the apartment afterwards.

Pluto is giving stranger money while Oneismo looks on.  He gets the rest of the money when the job is done.  He has to look like a hero.

It’s early morning and Fernando is in the” mood”.  He invites Marsela to come back to bed, she declines.  She wanted to talk to him last night but he was too busy with this game.  Fernando doesn’t want to talk he is a man of action.  (Since when?) Marsela feels that communication is an integral part of being a couple.  Every couple communicates except them.  Fernando says why talk that’s boring, let’s just do it.  He catches a few more zzzs.

Mimi and JC are talking about Adriano and he feelings towards him. Mimi is going to be on a radio show with Maxine.

Angry Bad Dad is feeling sorry for himself and keeps harping on how much he will miss Lalito.  Silvia reminds him that grandchildren are borrowed and they have their own family.  Angry Bad Dad does want to eat. (Oh well!)  He stomps off.

Marsela calls for Kevin and Jennifer to clean up their rooms.  While Fernando’s folding the clothes she finds the money for the telephone bill and a card for Candy Sweet.

Mimi is on the radio with Maxine Woodside.  Maxine is introducing Mimi as a signer, and a make up artist for the Televisa world.  They are going to talk about women, Adam without Eve, Romeo without Juliet, you get the picture.  Mimi is asked what does she think of women openly talking to their husbands about sex (what is this the 1950’s??) Women need to communicate in all aspects with their men, what they like, where to put it and how to do it when it comes to sex.  Some men still believe that women should be quiet and look pretty.  While listening to this program, Marsela is on the computer, looking up the Candy Sweet website.  Stupid, oops, Fernando interrupts her.

Herbie the Green Love Bug pulls up replete with balloons and Eva peels herself out of the compact car. Eva will stay at the door but she can’t miss this event.  Helena is happy to have her BFFS with her.  Eww, Pluto pulls up and Lucia comments on how her boss is a just a little too interested.  Of course he had to bring the larger vehicle to accommodate all of Lalito’s things.  Eva and Pluto start arguing about the vehicles, but Helena said that they can go in both, vehicles so for now everyone is happy.

Angry Bad Dad gives Lalito his favorite medal because they are from the same battalion (okay maybe I’m just tired but goodness, Lalito is just going cross-town to live with his mother, he is not going to war, the “Si señor” piece is wearing on my nerves) Live where you live but I will always be with you, and tell me everything that goes on and even if we don’t see each daily, we will always be united.  Simple Silvia was crying in the background. He loves him like no one. (At that point if Silva had any neurons working, she should have said- hey what about me?)

The BFFS and Pluto enter, Lucia gives her usual compliments to Angry Bad Dad and Eva apologizes for coming without being invited and she will keep quiet, while Helena is trying not to bust out in laughter.
Silvia bids Lalito goodbye, blesses him and tells him to behave in school, we love you etc.  Helena thanks her mother for everything and then the doorbell rings.  Lalito asks Angry Bad Dad if he will give a blessing but he declines, grandma did it already, they salute each other.  Mario enters; he wants to see his son.  Angry Bad Dad is even angrier and rises as if is he was a serpent being charmed and rising from a basket.

Fernando’s family is eating chocolate con churros, and Marsela asks if he wants to eat at home, maybe she can get a recipe from her mother of something that she hasn’t tried before, no Fernando likes variety.  Marsela is thinking about the website.  As usual Fernando doesn’t have a clue.  The girls must be on their periods, he jokes to Kevin. What an idiot? (I can’t say that enough)

Angry Bad Dad- tells Mario- how dare you come to this house!  (Hey, Angry Bad Dad-It is your house, so you can throw him out!)  Silvia snatches up Lalito and takes him to make sure he has not forgotten anything.  Angry Bad Dad grabs up Mario and Pluto intervenes, Mario only wants to get to know his son.  Eva is not having that and proceeds to hit him with her handbag.  Mario- What do you really want?

Back to the radio program, they are now taking calls and Marsela calls because she would like to rekindle the flame in her 16-year marriage.  Mimi gives her some suggestions, candles, incense, sensual music, use your 5 senses.  The show is over, and Marsela is still on the line and Marsela recognizes Mimi’s voice.  Okay, Marsela asks Mimi not to share this conversation but aren’t they on the radio?  (I would think that thousands, even millions of people are listening.)

Lucia and Eva have to butt out this time.  They can only support Helena.
Mario wants to talk to Helena alone, and there is Pluto giving advise to Angry Bad Dad.  Just have faith in her.  ABD looks at Pluto as if to say-yeah right!

Helena wants to know where has he been for the last 8 years?   No phones, nothing, you deceived me, left me pregnant, what do you want?  He has money to pay to her father as a part of a “forgiveness “ package. (Side thought, Antonia must have left a mint, or is this part of the $3 million dollars?) He has changed.  His pregnant wife died in an accident with their baby and now he is trying to correct his wrongs.  He didn’t even know Lalito’s name.

He is begging Angry Bad Dad to accept his “money”.  Give the money to Helena who worked hard to pay her dad back and ABD doesn’t want the money either.  That money doesn’t erase the shame of me taking care of Helena who is a single mother.  Pluto is looking on.  ABD finally spews his anger on someone who deserves it.  He tells him to leave and he will kill him if he dares to return.  Of courses Pluto reminds ABD to watch his health but most of all think of Lalito.  Eva just wants 5 minutes with Mario.  Helena yells at Eva to not interfere in her life and to leave and let her fix her problems.  (How stupid, are they all brain dead?? Pluto can stand there and meddle and make no sense in his thought process or in what he is saying but when Eva sides on what is right, she is reprimanded)

Lucia pushes Eva out of the house and tells her that they shouldn’t have interfered.  Eva smells a rat. (Pluto)
Pluto lets Mario know that he is not to take advantage of this family because he considers them his own and Helena and ABD just watch.  (No one has anything to say)  They are so grateful that Pluto was there. Oh, Mario just wants to see his son.  Helena needs to speak to Lalito first as Pluto gloats, like the cat that swallowed the bird!

TJ- thanks so much for this great recap. That Ferni, what a jerk. I hate his aside about women being on their periods. Jennifer was very offended too. Poor Marcela now thinks that Ferni is seeing a prostitute. If she only knew the truth.

I love the dynamic between Adri, Mimi and Eva, and you were right on the money TJ, Adri was peeking at Eva. I think he has it bad for her. Poor Mimi.

So now Mario is back in the picture due to Pluti. I don't like Mario already, and I wonder if this dead wife/baby is something he and Pluti cooked up. By the way I like the actor that is playing Mario. He has always been a good guy in the TN's I've seen him in. Here he looks like a con man. Liked how Eva defended Helena here. And I agree, how could they all listen to Pluti but not Eva.

I actually liked the fact that Eduardo stood up to Mario, what a difference. Still don't like the way he treats Silvia and Helena though.
 

Thank you for the recap, TJ.

Any idea what Pluto's plot is? My only guess is that he's supposed to kidnap Lalo, then Pluto rescues Lalo. If that's the case, then I'll bet that Mario really kidnaps Lalo and Pluto can't find him.

Speaking of which, how did Pluto/Onesimo locate Mario? What did they have to go on? That his name is Mario and he moved to the US eight years ago? Is there some sort of Stalkers.com where you can find this stuff? Just like, Pluto somehow came up with a list of all JC's conquests, and somehow narrowed it down to the woman with an undying hate for him, versus all the others who go to his grave to cry on his birthday.

Lastly, I want to see the ghost of Antonia!!!

 

I love the notion of a stalkers.com.
Oneismo is inept, so how do all of these people appear? Yes, I am hoping to see the ghost of Antonia very soon, because Pluto is totally out of control.
 

Thanks for the great recap!

I'm no Fern fan, but one thing I've learned in my many years of marriage is that you never discuss anything important with your husband while he is listening to a game, for goodness sakes! That is when you discuss other things (e.g., "let's go visit my mother next weekend"......then later, "don't you remember? We talked about this last week.").

One other detail in last night's episode - AngryBad Dad said thank you to Mopey Mom and she was bowled over. "He said gracias!". Maybe we are starting to see him change.

Mil in NC
 

Love your style TJ. Thanks for the recap.

Yes, Mil, for the first time ABD did not storm off & insult Silvia. He said that the was not hungry Thank You. From the way she reacted this must be her first Thank You from him in years. Also when he stood up to Mario & refused the money he seemed a bit proud to be able to tell Mario that Helena had already paid him back in full. Combined with Silvia's standing up to him last week we may be seeing the beginnings of a chink in that wall of anger.

Poor Mimi. Both she & Eva told Adri that the love he seeks might be right under his nose -- but he is sniffing in the long direction. I think that you are all right. It's Eva that he is looking at.

Fernando & Marsela? Nuff said by all of you. Ditto.

I hadn't thought of the kidnap plot. I thought Pluti was just trying to separate Helena from Lalito for a while so that he could comfort her. But your idea makes sense. I like the actor playing Mario. Maybe he will actually fall under Lalito's spell & end up coming back into his life for real. But that won't be for ages.

Thanks, Tablet Jefa. I didn't get a chance to see this last night, so really appreciate your details. "Angry Bad Dad is even angrier and rises as if is he was a serpent being charmed and rsing from a basket" was especially good. Though I don't imagine he was charmed in the least!

Agreed, football (or futbol) game is no time for a Serious Talk. I can relate, as I resent Serious Talks when I'm trying to watch my things, too!

Argh. Very disappointed in Silvia (again) for not supporting Helena when Angry Bad Dad bad-mouths her.

Adriano feels his house is getting larger? Newsflash, Adriano - your house is friggin' HUGE.

Mimi and Marcela on the phone - putting a phone call on or off the air is as easy as pushing a button. Hopefully someone remembered to push it!

OK, so, since I didn't see this I have a question. Is Mario the guy Pluto gave the money to? If not, then perhaps we can hope Mario's appearance will screw up Pluto's plans...
 

Drinking milk in the morning? Sure. Touting the fabulous tomato harvest? Yep. But a PSA on talking to your husband about sex? Really? The way they hammered the point, this must be a huge problme in Mexico. Maybe enough woman wrote in asking for help that Televisa felt they had to do something. The conversation continued when they were off the air but I was SO hoping that someone messed up and Marcela's name was going across the air to everyone who knows Fernando. He'd deserve the humiliation. Even Kevin thinks he's an idiot.

Gracias, Tablet Jefa! I, too, liked the description of the uncharming Bastardo rising like a charmed snake.

I like Mimi, but her advice to Marcela was terrible. She didn't even listen long enough to find out what the problem is. Candles, roses, and lingerie? I don't think that will fix anything for Marcela. I'm sure details would be lost on Mr. Tres Minutos and the problem isn't that he doesn't want to have sex, it's that he doesn't consider his wife as anything more than a tool for his own use. She was wanting advice on how to talk to him and get him to pay attention to her needs and desires. Mimi kind of blew it. Maybe they'll keep talking and she'll offer up something useful.
 

Tablet Jefa - Thanks. My favorite line: "Fernando doesn't want to talk - he is a man of action. (Since when?"

I felt bad for Eva when Helena was kicking him out cause she didn't want the chaos with Mario to escalate.

Eva/JC must be feeling more confidant as a woman cause I notice she's been wearing more snug-fitting dresses.

 

Clever and funny Tablet Jefa, including your aside that you're invisible until after the Super Bowl is over. You mean the hubster doesn't watch basketball?

Thanks for a great recap of a very interesting episode.

And I think we're all wondering why Marcela stays with Fernando. I've seen absolutely no redeeming qualities so far. At least Eduardo, loathsome beast that he is, actually works. Fernando doesn't even do that. This is nothing, absolutely nothing to respect him for.
 

Judy, I don't see anything remotely redeeming about either of them.

Televisa needs to expand their visions of romance. The candles and roses are overdone. I would have hoped Mimi would be a little more creative. I hope that wasn't the end of that PSA.

Funny that even Plutarco el crocosharko's casual leather jacket was SHINY. Does his dry cleaner use high-gloss finishing spray on all his duds?
 

Julia...I remember one fine book on marriage that said "Sex begins in the kitchen....when the husband actually helps his wife!"

Fernando should be the one getting advice, not Marcela. But as is usual, the woman is the one concerned with improving the relationship. He thinks it's just fine as it is.
 

Okay... 90 seconds before tonight's airtime, I've now seen the episode. Even though we never see the guy's face when Pluto is paying him off, it seems pretty clear that it's Mario. I was just curious if there was a third party involved, but I guess not.

What I find interesting about Mario's scene at Helena's parents' house is that he never once shows the slightest curiosity about Pluto. I wonder if Helena or anyone else will pick up on that. (Even if he's not the jealous type, you'd think he'd at least ask if he was Lalito's stepfather.)
