Por ella soy Eva #36 9/5/12: The Party Episode- The Old Dogs, The Slumber and Beach Parties!

Ah, hello all- we start off listening to the old dogs conversations about a party and how there will be plenty of yummy, young girls in attendance.

Helena kisses Lalito goodnight over the telephone.  Helena invites Eva to sleep in her large bed, for the impromptu slumber party. I love the" que, que- what?”

Fernando's house-
Marsela says that with two salaries we can pay our bills much faster than before. What a blessing in this economy, oh I forgot; we are talking about the Neanderthal.  Fernando wants to take over the finances, Kevin gets his cell phone that is for emergencies and it’s not a toy, yeah, now she is the best mom in the world. Last week he needed her at home when he came from school, teenagers, Fernando then complains that Marsela is wasting money.  The only thing that this man does is sleep, eat and complain.

Back at Helena's
Eva is in heaven, she is staying at Helena’s but she can’t sleep with her-she snores, she talks in her sleep and Lucero lets out such a belly laugh.  (At times she is like the audience finding it hard to contain herself. - Lol) she just can't sleep with Helena! she walks in her sleep, etc. Helena won't take no for an answer, it's settled? She will share the bed with Helena.

Playa Mayagua- Rebeca was enjoying her meal just a little too much, Antonia points out that its too cholesterol laden and she will ask for fruit or something lighter. Rebeca points out that by not eating Antonia will insult the natives.
Uh oh, Pluto has been there two times, not just once and Antonia starts eating.

At the old dog party-Adriano is MUY -impactado, Paola is his friend Jesus' daughter. Karma is wonderful!

Fernando is complaining about Kevin's cell phone. According to him Marsela can't do anything right, it was a surprise that he was not included in.  He is too young for a phone, its counterproductive. Marsela feels that she will know where he is. (I do agree with Fernando, let me get my head examined because he will use the cell phone to lie and say that he is somewhere that he isn’t.) Kevin seems sneaky.  Kevin is on the phone with someone saying that he can add him to his contacts and to let him know when he gets "something" please don't let it be drugs.

Back at the party- oh Jesus is just so proud of his scank of a daughter. Adriano looks like he has seen a ghost. Of course Paola knows him Uncle Adr.  After I finished rolling my eyes at this scene, I don't like to see this actress speak, there is something odd about her mouth. Jesus’ young chippie, Ximena who comes over to the conversation and they walk away to mingle with the other guests.
Adriano is not happy.

Pluto is calling Rebeca; oh he has left several messages. She finally answers. The place (Playa Mayagua) is a pigpen but the food isn't too bad. How does that make sense?  Rebeca needs to speak to Pluto to clear something up.  Pluto wants to know- what does Rebeca know. He has to wait until tomorrow.

Back to the slumber party- Eva tells about missing her Belisario and being a widow and not undressing in front of anyone but him, and Helena compares her feelings to Eva's. She too feels like a widow and that she will not be with Juan anymore.  He is always in her dreams; he is the love of her life. He will always remain in her heart.  The rest of this scene was too funny- you are not going to take off your makeup.  No, she can't in case of an emergency. Eva had something on her eyebrow and screamed and ran into the bathroom.

Back at the party- the lovebirds are arguing as to why Paola didn't share that Jesus was her father.  Seriously, who cares?  Adriano was treating Paola like a hot potato.
But Jesus toasts him. Yuck!!  Another eye rolling scene for me.

A night gowned and stocking wearing Juan is in the bathroom saying that he can no longer go on with this farce and goes to Helena's bed.  Helena wakes up and Juan tells her that Eva doesn't exist.  Is this a dream? Camil is singing in the background.  Helena was sure that Juan was alive.  He explained why he had to invent Eva.  Helena is ecstatic. Juan tells her that he loves her, adores her, they kiss, the bedroom gets ready to explode and then I knew it!!!  Juan was daydreaming!
Helena checks on Eva, she's taking too long in the bathroom and Helena is getting sleepy,

OMG- Eva has a green mask on. A mask that her/his 80 something aunt wears and she looks like she is 25. I’d like several gallons of that cream. This concoction has been in the family for generations.  She doesn't know about Ponds cold cream and the likes because she is from the north.
Poor Eva is trying to take a cover and keeps disturbing Helena's sleep.  Eva sleeps on the floor.

Playa Mayagua - a local man says that the natives have their support in this project and will do anything for Helena Moreno. Rebeca is thrilled at the mention of Helena's name. She complains about getting bitten by the mosquitoes, etc.
Rebeca tries to tempt Antonia to eat the decadent breakfast but this time Antonia stands her ground!

Helena wakes up and looks for Eva, she slips into the bathroom and the toilet seat is up and the towel is soaked. Was a man here? Que the heck! She asks Eva already dressed  and serving breakfast  and Helena asks about the toilet seat being up and the soaked towel. Again another family member story, her Uncle Ochente. She blames leaving the bathroom like that lets her feel like her husband is still alive.  She is careful not to wet her goodies.  Helena loves having Eva around. I am sure that the feeling is mutual.

Helena is visiting Lalito and Eduardo calls for Helena.  He makes sure that Helena brings Lalito home from school. Helena keeps her word and while dad recuperates Lalito stays there. He is a strong outpatient!  He yells for Silvia to change yesterday's water.  She is a better woman than I, because he would have been wearing said water!

Mimi meets Eva and warns her to be careful staying with Helena because she can get caught. Yes, she/ he shaved.  My goodness, how much Avon do these blue dresses buy?  They ask for everything but they are slow to pay. Oh no, here comes Adriano.

Playa Mayagua- Antonia is bothered that Pluto has been there 2 times already.  Of course Rebeca has time to take a quick swim in her itsy bitsy bikini, before they lave, be strong Antonia, and don’t give up!!

Adriano and Mimi get into it again.  Why is she at his place of business? She is Miss not Mrs., hard head.  She isn't bothering anyone. The blue dresses agree.  He doesn't want Mimi there; Mimi is trying to a make an honest dollar as she puts her money into the bank of her bra.  She has been summoned to Adriano's office. Mimi is delighted.  Mimi is making strides!

Helena's office-they discuss Helena's plan for Lalito and a meeting to get information from Antonia about Playa Mayagua.  Eva goes to make the arrangements and in walks Pluto without knocking.  Eva doubles back

Adriano's office- he starts yelling at Mimi about her coming into his place of business without permission and ends up asking for men's products.  Mimi” indiscreetly" asks why does he have such a youngster as your girl?? Adriano tells her to butt out of his personal business.  Adriano tries on a little of the cream.  I could not stop laughing.

Pluto is shoveling his crap that he is there being supportive in Helena's personal life, blah, blah, blah.  He just admires Helena. Then he brings up again how his wife has changed, she's distant, etc.  Yeah right!

Lucia is having problems with her Mauricio.  They will talk later.  In the elevator Eva tells Lucia that no man is worth crying about and the three gals break into song.

Antonia is back.  The couple missed each other and in walks Rebeca.  The girls shared a taxi. Antonia asks Pluto about the two times that has was there.  Antonia wants to know what is going on, he told her that he was there only once?

 We will find out tomorrow at 7:55

TJ-wonderful recap. I missed some of this epi, but your recap filled it in for me. The sleepover whas hilarious. I just knew that JC being in Helena's bed must have been a dream. I like how Eva explained away the raised toilet seat too funny.

So Paola is Jesus' daughter. I bet Adri feels like an asshat. I like Adri's interaction with Mimi. I am so hoping they get together by the end. They are so suited for each other, and Mimi really likes him. I think he's being a bit crossed-eyed is cute. Especially when he looks at Mimi.

Oh, that Bastardo. Totally agree with you TJ he would have been wearing it. What a jerk.

How old is Kevin. The norm for cell phones these days is like thirteen. He looks older than that, and I agree I hope it isn't drugs either. He doesn't seem like he does them, I don't know.
 

Oh, and I forgot also Antonia for getting back on track after indulging. I am glad she is sticking to her diet instead of just saying the heck with it. I really want her to succeed cause she wanted to do this for herself. I am glad she confronted Pluto about the two trips. I wonder what he will do to get out of that!
 

Thanks, TJ. Since you guys have been talking about it, I've been noticing how much Lucero laughs at the others' antics, and it only makes me love her more. Even during the song, which was Rata de Dos Patas! Just like UA pointed out to us. My favorite part tonight was Helena walking into the bathroom in the morning and wondering why Eva would leave a towel on the floor and the toilet seat up. Just like a man. I think this scene will flashback as Helena starts to put the pieces together. I'm liking the tension between Mimi and Adriano- I'd like to see more of the two of them together.
 

I just loved the elevator song. But my women's intuition tells me it won't be on the show's music CD.

What a wonderful feel-good episode! The lovey-dovey scene in bed even if it was only imagination, Eva's various explanations and excuses, Pluto running into problems, Rebeca being a lot less abusive to Toni, and the whole Mimi/Adri interaction. What a hoot! She's a fabulous comedian. Jesús Ochoa (Adriano) obviously has experience in comedy. I haven't seen him before, but if he has the chops to keep up with her comedy-wise, we're in for a real treat.
 

Yes, this one was a treat from start to finish. I loved the sleepover & the scenes with Mimi & Adri but my favorite was the song in the elevator. Thanks to whoever gave us the link to Rata de dos Patas last week. Knowing the song made that scene so much funnier.

Thanks for the recap TJ it was terrific.

Paula-- I have seen Jesus Ochoa in another telenovela in 2011, it was Para Volver a Amar, which was not a comedy. He played a married, womanizer. He was sort of like Adri with the ladies in that one too, but not funny. He was a real asshat. I like him way better here.
 

It turns out I was wrong about the chippie. JL is her dad, not her scam victim. So that sets me to wondering. In light of daddy's behavior, why did she hook up with Adriano? The harder I looked, the more possible motivations I found. Doggone, there are so many possibilities, you could teach a whole semester of Psychology on it!

A. It seems normal to her. If her father beat her mother, she probably would've hooked up with an abuser. Her father partners with babies, so she partners with old men.

B. Daddy ditched her and her mom when she was little, to chase the next trophy bimbo. Paola's rejection/abandonment issues drive her to try to replace her father to stop the pain. It's no coincidence that she's dating someone so close to her father.

C. Growing up, her role models were daddy's parade of bimbos, so that became her definition of a woman.

D. She hates her father for what he does, and she wants to punish him with humiliation by hooking up with his best friend.

E. Seeing her father, long ago she concluded that love is only in telenovelas and all men use women. So she'd rather be used by a sugardaddy with lots of perks, than by someone who drives a Toyota.
 

Good analysis, Paula. I, too, was sure that Paola would turn out to be Jesus' chippie rather than his daughter. Adriao's reaction is interesting.

Good work, TJ.

Karma is a bitch and she has PMS. I hope this is a wake-up call for Adriano.

I knew during the avances for this episode there was no way Juan Carlos was going to give up the game just yet. Agree with Ithabill that the bathroom scene will be in a future flashback. That will be a big light-bulb moment.
 

Thanks, Tablet Jefa!

For a minute there, I thought my prediction about Juan-as-Juan in the bed being a dream was wrong. They really had me going there for a minute, but I got suspicious when Helena accepted his explanation so readily!

And speaking of suspicious, kudos to Ezra for guessing that Jesus was Paola's dad. (Of course, that doesn't mean that she isn't still up to no good!) What I really liked about that scene was Adriano's horror upon realizing that his little chickie-doodle was somebody's daughter and that he knew her as a little girl. AWESOME.

In the Diet Watch, I couldn't help noticing that Rebeca ended up eating more than Antonia. I was only joking at first that Rebeca and/or Pluto would have problems if they kept eating things to tempt Toni, but now it's looking like it might really happen!

Regarding Pluto's trips to Playa Majagua, I think the discussion was that he had told Antonia and Rebeca that he'd been there twice, but the people at the Playa only ever saw him once and he didn't even stay the night. (The locals hated him instantly.) Pluto had used one of his alleged Playa Majagua trips as a cover to go somewhere else when he was framing Juan.
 

Thanks for the recap Tablet Jefa. The ground is definitely being prepared for Mimi now that Adriano realizes how inappropriate his sleazy romance with Paola has been. I am going to look forward to this section of the story.
 

Jesus Ochoa played Lucero's husband in the movie "Zapata." He was the bad guy. She, his wife (or mistress, not sure which) had a secret relationship with Zapata. I think Jesus Ochoa is great! He also played a role in a recent Mel Gibson movie "Get the Gringo" (or something like that). On Jaime Camil, I have to think he's doing a ton of improv as Eva, and that explains Lucero's belly laughs. I don't know how she and Ochoa keep straight faces around Eva. Thanks for the great recap!
