Amor Bravío #71 (Uni 66) Mon 11/26/12
La Buenaventura, Study: Amanda and Natalia talk about Camila's reaction to the recent developments. Camila wants to know everything and Natalia is afraid that she will not be able to escape a future interrogation. Amanda doesn't like this development. She tells her not to say anything that will compromise Daniel. Natalia tells her she hopes that won't happen, then quickly changes tone and direction, pretending to be on a business call when Cayetano walks in. She ends the call quickly. Amanda makes a gesture of frustration as Cayetano asks Natalia if she has seen Mariano, who enters promptly. He asks Mariano to handle something with the breeders' association while he takes care of another matter. As soon as he exits Mariano asks Natalia for some coffee. After she exits he looks at the photo of Camila with her unworthy female relations from the day of Don Daniel's homenaje and says “You are not alone; I'll be with you whenever you ask.”
Labels: bravio
Ximena got a rude awakening realizing that her "brother" was neither pleased to see her, nor does he want her and her posse on the ranch.
Loved Padre Anselmo telling Rocio like it is. She's the worst kind of snob seeing as she was broke when she married rich Cayeto (and she sure as hell doesn't have class like she thinks). But I don't think she'll listen to the Padre.
This is the second time we've heard that Padre's rich family shunned him because he turned his back on riches and a fancy career to be a priest instead. I wonder if other members of his family will show up? We certainly know who Rocio would prefer for Mariano though-- rich, lawyer, from a good family Teresa is looking like a way better option than Camila Monterde I bet.
With so many episodes to go, I was dreading the day when the lovers broke up because that's when the fillers tend to drag and become boring. However, based on tonights episode, I think Cami and the A team are going to give us our money's worth and more for a long time to come.
I felt bad for Vivi and Rafa when Cami confronted them. However, I feel even worse for Cami. In her eyes, her whole world just collasped in lies and deciet. For her sanity, I hope that she and Vivi will mend their relationship very soon. They need each other's support during this crisis.
The advances look exciting. I can hardly wait to see Cami's reaction to Dan's revelation even though I know it's too soon for forgiveness.
Camila's list of betrayal (from Camila's point of view):
Alonso (husband), defrauded her out of money, tried to rape her, shacking up with her sister.
Gussie (mom): threatening to choose her new husband over her child
Ximena (sister) stole money from her, slept with her husband
Andres (lover) "spy for Daniel"
Daniel ("cousin"), "hired Andres to sleep with her"
Natalia (employee), got Andres the Spy a job at the ranch
Viviana (BFF), knew Andres "was a spy hired by Daniel to sleep with her"
Rafael (friend), knew Andres was a spy hired by Daniel to sleep with her, was hired by Daniel to sleep with her but that didn't work so Daniel hired Andres instead
Padre Baldemero, (spiritual advisor), was forced by Daniel to vouch for Andres so he could spy on her and sleep with her
This "Daniel Diaz Acosta" is THE MAN...he's lurking around town, everywhere you want to be, sending spies to sleep with people, outsmarting the Komodo Gang at every turn, giving assassins the slip... "Daniel Diaz Acosta" has everybody worked up and spinning out of control...this dude is THE MAN!
If Camila doesn't want him I certainly will step right up to take him!
Stupid Ximena has the answer on her thigh..........will she remember the conversation she had with Andres the chofer when she noticed his strange birthmark & compared it to the strange birthmark she and her father have?
Loved this line in your recap: "the photo of Camila with her unworthy female relations ... "
Agreeing that poor Agustina is acting moronic about said "training" certificate. She is too trusting. She needs a computer so that she can look things up on the web. Not that everything is legit, but she needs just do something smarter than what she is doing now. BTW, Dio sure did answer her when she said that they hadn't "done it" in a while. He just basically said "Bah" and shouted for his dinner. Poor woman.
Yes, Vivi in DC ... good points about Padre Anselmo. I agree that we may learn more, especially since he has mentioned his brothers. Hopefully they are good guys and not mixed into the tourist scheme ... lawyer and architect? Hmmmmm!
Btw, Senor Albarran looked like he kinda liked Isadora. She was a bit flirtatious, and he seemed like he could fall for it.
So many tears in this episode! Everybody was seriously crying. Camila, Vivi, Rafa, and Dan/Andres. Our good people were so sad today. They are very emotional beings. So was Rafa hurt because Camila was hurt, or because Vivi was hurt that Camila was hurt. Probably both.
Now Aaron/Daniel ... I too love the way he is so "peaceful" and then goes into warpath mode as Daniel.
LOL Anon207 with calling Rocio a "broke bama" (LOL!!!!!) and then saying that "Daniel Diaz Acosta is THE MAN." Yeah, he is! LOL!!
The scenes between Vivi and Camila in particular were so hard to watch. What a mess -- not of their own making.
Ximena is a second-generation Agustina. Neither thinks before talking or, in Ximena's case, acting. Both are getting in deeper and deeper, with jail a possible outcome for the fraud-committing Agustina and worse for Ximena. I did love Ximena's surprise that Aaron wasn't just delighted to meet her and in fact wants them out of the hacienda.
Ximeana is a true sociopath, just like the Komodos and El Diablo.
Money and status rule everything in this tale's world.
Two men have rejected that outright: Aaron and Padre Anselmo (who is the black sheep of his family).
Two women went from rags to riches through marriage: Rocio and Hissadora.
Two other women are looking to do the same: Ximeana and Ileana.
Two men unconscionably use women to achieve money and status: El Diablo and Alonssso.
Three women have been horribly abused by men: Viviana, Luzma, and Piedad.
Three men are looking to protect their women: Daniel, Pablo, and Rafael.
Three women are adequately self-sufficient to mostly not have to worry about this stuff: Camila, Viviana, and Teresa.
Anon207 - loved your list
Netgirl - ITA about Aaron/Daniel. In real life he is similar to a kindly Peace Corps volunteer but can play a ruthless dueno when needed - it's great!
I hope Cam believe Andres is Dan though I know forgiveness is not in the cards right now - TN law.
I love D'Aaron!
It will be interesting to compare the revelation scene last night in Eva to the revelation scene tonight in Amor Bravio. Both heroines are hurt and hopping mad because of the deception of the galan, but Helena in Eva didn't also have everyone she loves and trusts in on the deception too. That's a big part of why Cami feels so betrayed and so alone.
Anon207, good point about the birthmark that Ximena and Daniel share. Surely that will come into play, and perhaps it will be Ximena who realizes its significance, since she's very alert to anything she thinks will $erve her purpo$e.
Netgirl, I enjoyed your suggestion that Gullible Gussy needs a computer, but I'm afraid I disagree. She's exactly the kind of nitwit who will fall for every Internet scam. However, I do agree with you that Cayetano seemed somewhat taken with Hissadora. And so the plot thickens.
Traveling Lady, yes, I too was delighted with the scene between D'Aaron and Ximena. Actually, I was at first a bit nervous, fearing that she'd overhear him say some revealing things to Teresa, but apparently by the time Ximena was able to hear, he and Teresa were saying nothing of significance to Ximena.
I can't wait for The Revelation, which the avances suggest will occur tonight. Will Camila believe him? I'm not sure. Will she forgive him? Probably not until hell almost freezes over (i.e., a few episodes before the end of the TN). Though, of course, the writers have been ignoring many TN conventions--perhaps they'll find a new twist here as well. ¡Ojalá!
Looks like tonight is the night for Andres to reveal his true identity to Cami. I'm a bit nervous about that because I got a little lost when Cami was trying to sort out the kinship. I wasn't sure that she was clear that Daniel is NOT her cousin and that he is NOT her uncle's biological son.
Andres/Daniel has the actual test results, which are negative. He is the son of Francisco Javier so he is the half-brother of Ximeana.
This is making me want to do a spreadsheet in an attempt to figure out which novela's characters have the most convoluted family trees.
And Hissadora had every intention of murdering Camila. Remember the forged will (which nobody who needs to know knows about yet) and the alleged sick bull.
*Mariano joins the Justice League
*Someone around Camila gets hurt/killed
Of the people who deceived her I think only Osvaldo will be able to get through to her. He's been telling her all along that Dionisio is dangerous, he's the one who gave her Don Daniel's letter to read, explaining that Alonso & Dionisio are dangerous, and he's the one who told her that Dionisio had previously tried to get his hands on Malquerida.
Camila needs to know:
*Alonso only married her to get his hands on La Mal.
*Padre Baldemero's accident was no accident
*Dan's PREGNANT wife Miriam was shot & killed(?) b/c Dionisio's hit man was trying to kill Daniel so the inheritance would pass to Camila so Alonso & Dionisio could take La Mal away from her.
*Bruno, Viviana's evil ex, is a hacker working for Dionisio
*The bull accident was an assassination attempt on Camila's life because as her widower, Alonso would inherit La Mal.
Camila "knows" about the danger but she's not taking it seriously b/c she doesn't have the information. Even though Osvaldo is in on the deception, he might be the only one that can make her see why everyone did why they did.
Also, he is the only one who can remind Camila that she too is deceiving people, namely Augustina. Camila knows Dionisio is fake, a con artist & not even his real name, yet she hasn't told Augustina. Why, since she's so concerned about deception?
Camila isn't telling Augustina what she knows about El Diablo because Augustina will not believe her. That information has to come from Osvaldo and Amanda, along with actual physical evidence and even with that it's a long shot that Augustina will believe it.
Behind on AB. Have seen a little of Thursday's ep and half of Friday's, none of Monday's. Hoping to catch up within a couple of days. Going to read the recap/commnets though--see what I have to look forward to--or not.

UA: Loved your “men”, “women” list.
Juanita: I hope you’re wrong about Os, too.
Flaco wants me to practice Spanish by learning a song. He’s picked Mil Vidas, which the actor that plays Vivi has sung before. When I looked up the lyrics, I found them linked as an AB song, with pics of Cam and Dan. Could this be their new song? I thought that their song might change when she found out about him. In CME, it seemed like all the main couples had two love songs, one for when they were happy and one for when they were sad. Don’t know what the lyrics of Mil Vidas mean—yet, so not sure if it qualifies as a sad love song.
Seeing Camila not trust Vivi hurts. Vivi as her best friend had more responsibility to tell her the truth than the others, at least in Camila's view. And I think in Vivi's view too, cause that's why Vivi gave Daniel that hard slap when she found out he slept with Camila. I'm actually feeling worse for Vivi than for Daniel.
I too loved when Aaron told Ximeana there was no reason for him to fake familial feelings for her and that she should get her butt off the ranch.
Niecie- I also feel worse for Vivi than for Daniel. He started this whole mess, and he twisted Vivi's arm into going along, against her better judgement.
Sorry if this has already been pointed out: Snobby Dio keeps calling Piedad by the wrong name. I've heard him call her "Caridad" and holler "Pilar".
Eating dinner on vacay, listening to some beautiful music I swear I heard that song that was played whenever we had the kids' flashback in A de P. Could it be? Does anyone recall what song that was and was it made for that TN?
Other songs that apply to our lovebirds that are sung by other group:
Tan Solo Pido -- Camila & Luis, more Camila
El Hombre mas hermoso-Ale Rojas --Dan (it was 1st featured when Dan was unconcious in the hospital-- some people here didn't favor it too much; but personally I love it -- the lyrics are great
Jamas Abandone (Daniel & Myriam) & Te Digo Adios (Daniel) - Laura Pausini
Myo-
I admit that when the padre was talking to Rocio, I had the thought that maybe his siblings are part of the Dion team. I hope not.
I don't understand why the people who wrote the reference for the Padre are now confessing that they only did it because the padre asked for it. They knew when they wrote it that it was a lie, why aren't they continuing with the lie? When you write a letter of reference, you expect to be called by the employer to verify it. Sheesh.
Also, per TN law, if Rocio cheated on Cayetano, then he must cheat on her in order for them to stay together. So I see a romance between Isa and him.
And there is the biggest anvil hanging over Osvaldo that I ever did see.
I'm nervous about Andres having his conversation with Camila. I don't want them to be at odds, especially until close to the end of the TN. Hope the writers surprise us again. Thank you recappers! Linda K
Cathyx: “Also, per TN law, if Rocio cheated on Cayetano, then he must cheat on her in order for them to stay together. So I see a romance between Isa and him.” That should be interesting. Wouldn’t it be something if Isa actually fell in love with him (though I know that’s not likely given she’s the spawn of Evil).
Cathyx, I agree with you. Why are the folks who wrote the references for Andres admitting that not only that they were not true but also incriminating a deceased priest who can't defend himself.
Not knowing that D'Andres is about to reveal himself, Aaron is still posing as Daniel. The plot should become very interesting with 2 Daniels on the loose:-) I think D'Aaron's role will be more to keep the bad guys at bay. But of course a lot will depend on how Cami handles the news.
And as Renata pointed out, there are sad/love songs that are specific to the heroine or specific to the galan. You don't get this in all tns.
Anon207 - Another brilliant list. Worthy of memorializing on our Playbill. It's getting longer and longer.
You, too Foxy. Think of it as a refresher course.
Oh, and about Hissy coming from wealth. She was "sold" by her parents to the old guy Lazcano. When he died, she would have inherited. But I seem to recall that she and Alonsssso went through that inheritance pretty fast (even though old guy was probably pretty wealthy).
Anyway, the taste for money and more money and even more money is evident and planted early on.
RE: the Ximena / fake Daniel interaction - that was an amusing "you-had-that-coming" moment. Ximena is not much more than a self centered twit. AlLocoLonso is the same - a twit 2. IMO the bigger title of sociopath goes to Isa who we can see has noooooo empathy. The other two are small potatoes in this sopa .
RE: Camila and her betrayal - I hope TN law can be broken so that Camila will get over her distress sooner rather than several weeks later. If she just reconsidered the letter and the character of the people who say they were protecting her, we could fast fffwd. Oh well TN law will likely prevail anyhow.
====================
Loved the way Ximeana hit a brick wall with D'Aaron when she tried ingratiating herself into "Daniel's" life and his long-lost and oh-so-loving kid sis. Teresa did a good job of lying to her afterwards when Xi tried pumping her for information about him.
============
Can't wait for the Big Reveal tonight and ITA with Mena that it would be better if Camila actually listens to everything Dan tells her--and he darned well better tell her everything from the beginning. It would break TN rules. Also she can't fire him exactly without making Dio and his posse suspicious.....lots of possibilities I can think of for twists and turns here.....
