Por ella soy Eva #93 11/28/12: A Mother's Love, Thought Bubbles, Andale, I've Fallen and Do Not Need Anyone to Get Up

Hi everyone and Happy Humpday!!
Our show starts out with Helena and Lalito talking about Juan Carlos and how Helena was sad when he died, and that he is not a bad person like Mad Dad says.
Pluti is trying to C.H.A. (cover his- you know the rest.) regarding the fraud.    He wants to know who told Adriano this, Adriano replies one of the employees and he won’t say who. There will be an audit.
Fernando wasting time at his desk and Marsela comes and wants him to pay on the credit card with his extra money.  Fernando does not want to hear her financial advice.  Santi asks Ferni why haven’t you told Marsela about your bonus.  Fernando gave him a ridiculous answer- in other words –when the money is gone, love ends.  (I really lose brain cells, when I listen to Fernando, really- I guess that the character was to be comical but he is such a Neanderthal, that it’s not funny)
Juan is sharing all of the newspaper articles regarding the fraud of $3 million dollars with his mother.  Eugenia vaguely remembers.  He asked Modesto for help and he turned his back on him.  Modesto did not want to have anything to do with him because Modesto was beyond reproach, a model citizen, incorruptible, had another family. 
Juan swears that he is innocent, and he explains why Eva was born.  Eugenia doesn’t understand what is going on with Adriano asking to marry him.  She asks hi to tell her the truth.  Did you take the money?  He says no the only thing that he did was to deceive Helena as an Argentinean.  He was trying to take credit for her Mayagua Beach project.  She can’t believe that her son- Don Juan, Macho man is dressing like a woman.  Eugenia doesn’t know how he will get out of this situation, but she does realize that he has learned a lot in Eva’s shoes.  Juan says her shoes, but her wig, stockings, boobs, painted nails, make up, etc.  Its ironic – Eva taught him to be a better man.  He asks his mother if she has forgiven him.  And she has.
Pluti (with his never-ending shiny suit collection) is at a restaurant with Oneismo- Pluti is worried about now being implicated for the fraud. He wants to know who is pointing the finger at him.  Oneismo thinks that it is Rebeca. He wants Oneismo to investigate who is involved in the blame game. Pluti says that she can’t be that stupid.
 A large bouquet of roses is delivered to Helena’s without a card- Helena thought bubbles back to the flowers that Juan Peron delivered.  Helena says that the flowers belong in the garbage just like Juan.
Eugenia-scolds Juan for deceiving almost everyone including Helena.  He told his mother that Helena knows that he is alive.  Eugenia asks about Rebeca, because she knows that Eva is Juan.  He was able to confuse her with Adriano so she doesn’t suspect him/her anymore.  Eugenia asks about Pluti and Juan tells her that he opened up a bank account in her name.  She is trying to remember.
Lalo is trying to talk to a distracted Helena about the meal.  (Lalo is getting taller.) Silvia knows that something is wrong and asks Helena if she is okay.  Helena wants to go over what Silvia will need for her bedroom in the new apartment.  Yeah right, Helena is thinking about the new apartment.
Eugenia doesn’t remember anything about a bank account.  She does forget things from time to time based on the treatments that she received.  You have to try to win Helena back.  But she won’t have anything to do with me.  Eugenia asks if he is sure?  How is she?  He shows her photo.  She remembers that Helena came to the house and she gave her the engagement ring that Juan had for her.  Eugenia’s female intuition is always right- Helena still loves you!!!

Helena is thought bubbling the conversation at the beach that she had with Juan, where he was still proclaiming his love for her and his innocence.  She thought bubbled- Pluti telling her that it is time to move on, Juan lies to her, deceives her.  She thought bubbles to the party where the woman (I forgot her name) told them that she had aborted Juan’s baby.  The conversation with Silvia about the time that she found Juan in Lalo’s room on the computer, Juan said that he was checking his emails.  She thought that it was strange. Yeah just as strange as when Pluti had a mini temper tantrum when he found out that Helena went away and didn’t call. him- right???
Helena doesn’t know what to do.  She dials an operator and hangs up.
At the Escuderos residence- Angelica wants her job as a semi pornographic underwear model to be respected.  Santi is embarrassed because everyone at his job knows about her Tires- Bikini website and is gawking at her.  Angelica says that they are just jealous.  He wants her to find another job. (Once again, more brain cells are leaping out of my head)  Angelica is happy that she is so admired.  She wants to be treated like a queen. Ay vay!!!  She needs to be introduced to his parents and the world needs to know that she is Mrs. Escudero. - Why??
Silvia is speaking in front of some type of support group.  She puts on a strong front for her daughter but she feels ridiculous studying and she should just return to her husband.  She tries to be strong, but she is not, she misses Mad Dad.  She has been married for almost 35 years. (Wow, how old is Helena supposed to be? Early 30’s) She has lived over half of her life with Mad Dad.  She is happy where she lives but its not her home and she is trying to support her daughter, but doesn’t want to suffer either.
Lucia is in the office working with Renato and wants attention.  Renato had work to finish for Don Adriano.  Lucia is whining about how she is going to miss him when he becomes Adriano’s assistant and will he miss her. (and there go more of my brain cells.)
Silvia doesn’t think that se is capable of forgetting her husband.  She is still sad (grieving).  The group leader encourages her to decide what she wants in regards to her relationship with Mad Dad.
Mad Dad is now angry at the light bulb and climbs on a table to change it.  We all know where this is going.  Both he and the light bulb fall, and it looks like he took a hard hit.
Renato asks Lucia, when is Helena going to return?  Renato thinks that it very irresponsible of her to always disappear. (Well join the club; I’m not sure how this company stays in business with the lack of work.)
Here comes Rebeca, delivering paperwork for Helena on Mayagua Beach. (Don’t they have mail people to deliver the mail, or is Rebeca’s assignment to only to deliver to Helena and Pluti?)  Rebeca tries to insult Renato but Lucia doesn’t take the bait.  Rebeca is one miserable whench!  Poor Lucia- as the song says- “Loving eyes, they can not see”. (from Everybody Plays The Fool)
Juan is desperate. He has never been in love like this. Fight for what you want.  You are a much better person than before.  Fight for her like a man and not a macho.
Helena’s phone rings, its Pluti. He didn’t call her because he didn’t want to bother her. -(Really- He is always bothering her!!!) That’s why he sent the roses.  Helena was surprised that he sent them without a card.  She thought that her father sent them.  She thanks him and he tells her that it’s just a small gesture to let her know how much her loves her as Rebeca (who does not have any mail to deliver) is eavesdropping.  Helena thought that he was trying to deceive her. Oh heavens, no, Pluti would never do that, not to her, Lalo or anyone in her family.  Rebeca can’t contain herself.  Helena deserves all of his respect and will no do anything to lose her.  Helena is touched by his words, they mean so much to her.  (Let me stop rolling my eyes, so that I can finish)  Helena you sound angry.  Is everything okay?  Well Pluti- I have something very important to tell you.
Mad Dad is still lying on the floor; he awakes in pain and tries to stand up.  Good thing he had on those heavy boots.  He is able to get to the telephone, and calls someone for help.
Pluti wants to know- what do you need to tell me.  Helena is crying.  She is so moved that he loves her and he has never lied to her.  She is so emotional in hearing his voice.  He is on his way (My eyes hurt from the rolling)
Great- I have her eating out of my hands.  Rebeca tells him that he has two left feet, how horrible, both in dance and in the bed.  He has prohibited her from entering his office without knocking!! Get out!! She really seems scared.  She lets him know that she heard his conversation and he is pathetic!   Don’t be jealous Rebeca; Helena was able to do what you couldn’t do for 10 years.  Make me fall in with love you!  You leave a lot to be desired. As a woman.  Rebeca isn’t jealous, she just wasted 10 years in a wreck of a romance.  Remember that I have a compromising video, Pluti is so scared. Get out of my office.  Rebeca can’t take the smell of his cheap colognes.  With her he used good, except colognes, but with the social climber he uses stinky stuff (dog water)
Eugenia has spent all afternoon with Juan. She tells him that she wants to go back to acting and he congratulates.  She doesn’t want to speak to Modesto and Juan doesn’t want her to drive alone, so he will go as Eva.  They embrace.  (The scenes with Juan and Eugenia helped me to recover some of my lost brain cells, because she was just what Juan and Eugenia needed.)
Helena, who a moment ago was so emotional and crying is now thrilled to hear that her mom is going out with the girls. Silvia feels a little guilty because there is much to do in regards to the move.  The phone rings again, and Helena goes out of the running.
Silvia shares girl talk with members of her support group and their feelings validate hers.  Silvia is happy to be able to speak freely.
Eugenia fixes up Eva who complains about the pain of the heels, wearing the make up etc.  But it’s worth it in order to win back Helena.
Eugenia always wanted a daughter.  Juan didn’t need to hear that. It was a joke.  It was a cute exchange.
At the hospital Mad Dad is better now that Lalo is there.  He misses him.
He took a hard fall and needs medicine doesn’t have a fracture and wants to go home alone.  He tells Helena to butt out in front of Lalo.
Helena checks Mad Dad on the way that he spoke to her in front of Lalo and that he better get himself together.  He doesn’t understand why Silvia his wife is not there with him.  (He really bumped that head badly)
Helena understands that he is in pain but you are not going to insult my mother.  He doesn’t need anyone.  He could barely walk.  Doctors don’t  know anything all they want to do is to collect money.
Dona Silvia returns home and asks Lydia about Helena’s whereabouts.  Lydia tells her that they are at the hospital.  Pluti arrives and of course they are going to the hospital.
At Fernando’s house, Fernando is still talking about taking a vacation in Ixtapa. Marsela has a lot of work to complete so now is not the right time.  The voice of the town, speaks. (The family)  Marsela says no! Daniel invites himself to watch the kids. Huh??  Daniel is serious.  Fernando doesn’t get it.  Fool!!
Modesto scolds Eugenia for coming in late.  Eva says that were having hamburgers and chatting. The brat recognizes Eva.

Coming attractions- Is Helena going to spill the beans to Adriano?

TJ- great recap, thanks. Loved the talk with Eugenia and JC. I had to laugh when she said she always wanted a daughter, lol. I am so glad Eugenia now knows the truth and can help JC.

Helena is all over the place and she really needs to think without anyone pressing her into what to do. She is very confused, I just wanted to tell her to snap out of it already, as I was watching, lol. Pluti does stalk her. Glad she gave Bad Dad a good talking to. He should never have spoken to her that way in front of Lalo.

Silvia seems to be struggling with her decision. I just hope she doesn't go back to Bad Dad.

I agree with you TJ about Fern, he is getting on my last nerve. I wonder if Rebe got him a credit card, cause Fern keeps giving her bills that she rips up. I wonder what this is about, and I bet Rebe did set up Pluti. Who else could it have been?
 

Thanks for the recap, TJ!

Not much new last night, lots of brain cells killed, but it was nice to see JC and Eugenia together. I'm with you on Fern - he drives me crazy. I wonder if he will end up being blamed for the fraud.

Julie - I also had a laugh thinking about Onemiso being JC's half brother. What a contrast! It's hard for me to imagine him being Mistress Lady's son and Bratty Girl's brother, though. It does seem that Renato is too obvious, so maybe there will be a surprise later.

I keep thinking Bad Dad is going to turn a new leaf then he's back to Bastardoville. Wonder if he will ever change.

Thank you, TJ. "Mad Dad is now angry at the light bulb," LOL, yes, that's him all over. I think my biggest hope for this show is that Silvia does not return to him. It's looking iffy.

I thought this show was very emotional... JC and Eugenia reconciling, Helena desperate in asking for reassurance from Plutarco, and most of all Silvia in front of her Codependents' Anonymous group. Despite all her bad judgment, I find this character very likable and I'm glad to see her taking the steps she needs to be happier. Of course it's a long trip- she started out so confined in that horrible marriage. Please, please, por favor, don't go back to him.
 

Tablet Jefa, I always look forward to your recaps and your insights.

On the Renato/Inesimo front. I guess it's not unrealistic to think that Onesimo is young enough to be JC's younger half brother -- but he doesn't seem young enough to be Claudia's brother -- even her older brother. Didn't we hear once about Onesimo growing up in the provinces -- near Rebecca's home town?

It seemed almost as if this episode was one of those recaps for new viewers & to reminds the rest of us about things we may have forgotten. Sometimes TNs do that as they get ready to shift gears & move in a new direction.

The scenes with Silvia at the Co-Dependents Anonymous meeting and then at the cafe with the other CODA members were very realistic -- and a very valuable PSA. Her ambivalence about Eduardo and about going back to him is totally natural. She did say at one point that she is trying to stay strong for Helena -- that if she wants Helena to move on with her life then she, Silvia, must show her by example and move on also.

I loved the scenes with JC & Eugenia.

Does that sex tape of Rebecca's exist or not? We know that Onesimo found the camera & took a tape -- but is it the important tape?

Fernando is a bigger and bigger ass. He is probably going to be caught up in that audit. Rebecca has him diverting funds somehow. Has he actually got any money out of the scheme yet? He brings Rebecca her check -- and she rips it up so that there will be no trail to her. Maybe the checks are made out to some phony operation rather than to her. But how does Fer get his share? He is digging a big hole for himself. An audit is underway because Renato has found that money is being diverted -- an here's Fer throwing money around like water.

Thank you for your recap. My favorite parts last night were the scenes with JC and Eugenia. Sounds like mom and son were off on a burger run. I liked Eugenia's joke about always having wanted a daughter in reference to Eva. I wonder how long the audit will take. . .

Jarifa
 

Thanks, TJ. I'm with you too as far as Fernando is concerned. I can't stand him. I don't think he's funny. I don't even get what drew Marcela to him in the first place.

Güera - I didn't realize Onesimo grew up in the same area as Rebeca and Angelica. I think Renato did too, or maybe I'm losing my marbles. (Very possible.)

I also noticed last night that Onesimo had a little flip in his hair like Renato's. Yikes! Maybe I'm the one who's taking the bait!

I don't know what is going on with the video. We saw Onesimo take it from Rebeca's place a while back but we haven't seen what's on it.

If I were Rebeca, though, I would have left that video there for Onesimo to find. That way, Pluto assumes he's out of hot water. But that would have been the copy, and I would have kept the original.

Better yet, perhaps Rebeca has an additional video that's much worse than the one she let Onesimo find. Like if Onesimo's is just some dumb old sex tape they made when they were fooling around, but the other one could be of Pluto bragging to Rebeca about how happy he is that he provoked Antonia's fatal heart attack.

However, if she did have such an incriminating video, wouldn't she have used it already instead of concocting a scheme to frame him? Hmm.
 

Tablet Jefa - Thanks.

ITA on JC/Eva and Eugenia together.
 

Thank you for the recap, TJ.

I love the TN parallels.
Remember back when Juan asked for Helena's hand? He was about to sit down and tell her the truth, that he was Juan Carlos. Then he got the call that his mother was in a crisis. He ran out the door and never got to tell her.

Now Helena was about to tell Pluto "something important" - that Juan is alive. But she got the call that her father was in crisis. She ran out the door before Pluto arrived. With the parallel set up like that, I'm sure she won't tell him.

 

BTW, I think Enesimo is far too naco to be Carmen's son. Carmen may not be high society, but she's certainly not naco. And Enesimo... well, I was going to say that he's as naco as la familia P. Luche. Then I remembered: he's a member or la familia P. Luche! You can't get more naco than that!!
