Caray, Caray!

D'Andres convinces Camila to let him talk to Luzma alone first.  Camila reluctantly agrees, but she wants him to do it right away.  He vows to make the responsible party regret being born.

Isadora refuses to go to Las Vegas to make believe it's a real training trip.  Basically, Dionisio just wants Agustina out of the way so he can make a play for Camila without her mother hanging all over him every second.  He doesn't care how low Isadora thinks he's fallen, the sod will rise again.  Isadora decides she'll cancel at the last minute so that Agustina still has to go and Dio can make his move.

Rafa was a little worried about how Camila would take him moving in with Vivi, but Vivi's more preoccupied with the knowledge that Cam and D'Andres have done the deed.  Vivi lies to Rafa, telling him nothing happened, but Cam just isn't for him.  It's too late to keep her from falling from D'Andres.  She advises Rafa to stop suffering over his impossible love.

Osvaldo is glad to see Camila so well recovered.  She reviews her will and only asks for one change--if she should happen to re-marry, she wants her husband and children to have part of her goods.  Osvaldo says she's welcome to change her will as many times as she wants to, so no worries.  He'll bring a fresh copy for her to sign the day after tomorrow.  Agustina giddily announces she can't sign then because she'll be in Vegas, baby.  Osvaldo is thrilled to hear it…not!


D'Andres approaches Luzma by the lake.  He said they've all tried asking her what happened, but she won't talk to them, so instead he's going to tell her that she's a great girl.  He says he knows what happened to her and encourages her to keep the perp from hurting her or anyone else ever again.  Luzma cries that he swore he'd hurt Pablo.  D'Andres does the math and realizes it was that rat bastard Leo.  Luzma doesn't confirm or deny, she just cries her eyes out on his shoulder.  In the words of Argus Filch…"I want to see some punishment!"

Agustina coos on about her training.  Osvaldo would love to get out of there, but Camila stops him to ask if he happens to know what happened to her uncle's gun.  Os is stumped.

D'Andres reminds Luzma that he's really Daniel and he swears he'll keep Leo from hurting Pablo…she just needs to go turn the slimy piece of filth in.  He says he'll stick by her and protect her.  She agrees…at least for now.

Mariano and Natalia decide to call Camila about the odd check, since the bank's copy has her signature.  He asks if maybe it was postdated, since it was dated during the time she was in the hospital.  Camila is sure she didn't do it, but she has an idea of who it might have been.  She calls Alonso immediately and asks him first about the gun, which he still hasn't found.  She says she has another question that she prefers to ask him in person.

The new Padre is going to have to let out some of his cassocks.  He's noticed that Amanda is always singing Andres' praises.  He asks her to sit down and says Andres doesn't act like a chauffeur and Amanda treats him like he's her superior.  Amanda wants to tell him, but only if it's under the seal of the confessional.

Rafael and Vivi intercept Dionisio's email to Daniel.  Dio claims to want to help Daniel and warns him off of talking to Camila.  Vivi is shocked at the man's cheek!  She realizes, though that Daniel and Camila aren't going to be able to meet as planned.

Walking towards the house, D'Andres sees Leo the lout and sends Luzma to get a sweater.  He beats the smack out of Leo…in slow motion.  He gives him a good dunking in the fountain, telling him he'll pay for hurting Luzma.  Then he gets a few more punches in to the head…a little strangulation…Rodolfo and one of the other guys have to pull him off.  Leo gets in a crotch shot, but D'Andres gets loose and goes back to tenderizing Leo's face.  Luzma comes up, horrified, while Piedad runs to the house.

Camila has just had a second to criticize her sister's "want" list when Piedad announces that D'Andres is beating the shit out of Leoncio.  Ximena is thrilled to have a little excitement at the ranch, finally.  What?  Sleeping with her sister's husband, slimy Bruno showing up, and Camila getting gored by a bull weren't exciting enough?

 When Camila gets outside, she asks if it was Leoncio and when D'Andres nods, she smacks him around a bit too.  She tells Luzma to tell her mother what happened.  Piedad doesn't believe it at first.  Camila screams at her for not believing her daughter.  Luzma says her scuzzy uncle raped her the day of her wedding.  Piedad now smacks Leoncio, who is being held up more than held back by two of the ranch hands.  She screams that she'll kill him, then goes to Luzma and begs her forgiveness for not protecting her from Leoncio.  Throughout, everyone looks shocked and horrified, including Ximena…maybe there's a little humanity left in her.

Isadora gets home just as Alonso's getting ready to go see Camila.  Isa's going to Guadalajara.  She's sick of Dionisio and his scheming to manipulate Daniel and Agustina.  Despite their pact, she's not willing to sit around and wait on him…she tells Alonso that what she's going to find in Guadalajara will save them.

D'Andres is ready to load Leo in the truck and take him to jail.  Osvaldo offers to go with them.  Agustina says she's ashamed of Leo and Camila says he'll never come back to the ranch.  Leo keeps saying he didn't do anything and even tries to get Luzma to agree, the heartless bastard.  Luzma says not only did she beg him not to do it, he laughed at her begging, so he can rot in jail.  Leo tries to threaten D'Andres again, but he gets knocked out for his trouble.  Camila is insistent on going, but D'Andres and Agustina don't want her to go.  Piedad vows she'll protect her daughter on her own and Agustina promises her support.  Camila tells Luzma that what happened doesn't have to hurt her heart, that everyone there loves her, that she can handle this, that it took guts to confront her uncle.

Padre Anselmo asks Amanda to please tell Daniel that he wants to help.  He comes from money and he can get Daniel a really good lawyer.  Amanda is thrilled to hear it.

Now that the crisis is over, Ximena goes back to being her usual worthless self.  She asks Camila if she thinks it's really true, you know, cause some girls like to flirt and stuff…Camila is floored.  "Even you, who routinely dress like a total skank--which Luzma doesn't, by the way--if you say 'no!' that means NO!"  Ximena still isn't convinced.  Mostly she's jealous that Camila is defending Luzma, even though Luzma is "nothing" to her.

Camila calls Pablo.  He takes the call, comes back to the dining table, and tells Mariano "It was Leoncio."  Mariano gets up to take him into town.  Bitchy Mama objects and Pablo says since they're all going to hear it from the rumor mill anyway, he'll tell them what's going on.  Yago and Ileana are impactados.  Mama doesn't give a crap, she still doesn't want him going.  Papa calls him impulsive after he's left and says he didn't get that from him.

The ranch hands are locking up the house when Alonso arrives.  He's pissed to hear that no one knows where she is.

Mariano tells Natalia that it was Leoncio.  "I knew it!"  There's a moment of confusion as Mariano thinks she means she knew it literally.  Natalia just made a solid guess from the way Luzma looked at him with such fear.  Mariano gives her the rest of the day off and Natalia asks him to pass on the message that she admires Luzma for having turned him in.

Isadora is getting ready to leave the house, suitcase all packed, and she stops to call someone named "Ibañez" and set up a meeting at her hotel while she's in Guadalajara.  She's looking for info on the man who registered Daniel as his son.

Mariano catches up to Pablo and convinces him to get out of the driver's seat.  Pablo's vowing bloody revenge and Mariano reminds him that his job is to support Luzma.

Leo Sordido gets dragged into the police station.  D'Andres holds Julian's murder over his head, telling him he'd better cop to the charge of rape or he'll end up having a murder charge added to it.  Leoncio snarls at Luzma as he's dragged away.  Osvaldo takes charge of starting the legal proceedings and the guy at the desk informs them that first Luzma will have to make a statement and then she'll need to have a forensic exam.  Osvaldo tries to spare her, saying it's been several days, but it doesn't matter.  Luzma starts to cave, but her mom and Camila convince her to go through with it, saying they'll be there for her.  Piedad apologizes again for not protecting Luzma and screwing up her life by keeping Leoncio around.  Osvaldo interrupts them, saying it's time for Luzma to give her statement.  D'Andres sits by Camila in the waiting area.  He tells her she shouldn't have come, but Camila insists she wanted to support Luzma.  "And then you're surprised that I'm in love with you?"

Yago is furious, thinking that Ileana had something to do with it.  After all, she said she'd done something to prevent the wedding.  "All I did was call the uncle and tell him that Luz Maria was going to marry Pablo.  But that's all.  I didn't tell him to rape her."  There's a special hell waiting for you, Ileana.  You and Ximena.  Yago says her intrigues are what led to this.

Ximena sneaks into her mom's room to try to steal some money, but mom doesn't have a whole lot in her wallet.  She grumbles that she needs money and she doesn't want to sell her car.

Vivi and Rafa finally get in touch with D'Andres to tell him that Dionisio sent him an email.

Natalia tells Amanda about Luzma.  Amanda is upset, of course, and tries to turn what happened into another reason Natalia should leave the ranch.  Natalia still refuses, saying Leo's not going to be there anyway, and if she needs to, she can testify that from the day she got there Leo was making unwanted advances.  Amanda is pissed off to hear that, which is exactly why Natalia never told her.  "Besides, I want to be there to support Luzma and I'm sure you'd do the same."

D'Andres, Vivi, and Rafa all agree that Dio is trying to play innocent and cut Alonso and Isadora out of the game.  D'Andres wants to take the meeting and try to get more info out of Dio.  He asks Rafa to accept the invitation and then contact Camila and cancel with her.

Leo is dragged in to give his statement and has to be told to STFU after threatening Luzma or he can go directly to jail.  He whines that he's a good guy and she's like a daughter to him and demands they call his "boss" Alonso and Alonso's mother.  Camila is confused as to why he thinks Alonso and Isadora would be able to help Leoncio.  Osvaldo supposes he's just saying anything he can think of.

The doctor explains to Luzma that she needs as much information as possible to be able to run tests.  They show Luzma lying on a table and Piedad looking on, horrified, but they don't go into details.  What they're not explaining is that Luzma has already given her statement to the guy at the desk, but she now has to give another one to the doctor, with details about what happened so that the doctor knows where she might be able to collect evidence samples from.  Given that time has passed, she'll probably get to leave the exam in the clothes she walked in wearing.  When the exam happens right away, the clothes are taken into evidence, leaving an already traumatized woman with nothing to wear.  Which is why in a lot of communities, there are organizations that collect clothing for sexual trauma survivors.

Pablo comes charging into the police station looking for Luzma.  Camila and Mariano calm him down.  He sees Luzma coming out of the exam room and tries to hug her, but she's really not in the mood for that right now.  The doctor comes out of the exam room and announces to THE ENTIRE LOBBY that she found evidence of rape and that Luzma is pregnant.

I'm having very, very, very uncharitable thoughts about the writers.

Tomorrow: back to the Cam and D'Andres romance.
