Por ella soy Eva #79 11/7/12: What a Woman!!!!!!!!
I’m back!!!
Thank you all for your well wishes and warm thoughts. I spent 7 days without electricity and heat. I am thankful to have my utilities back but my heart goes out to everyone who is still in the dark and/or lost everything. We are currently in the midst of a nor’easter and I pray that the lights stay on. I have missed everyone and will spend this weekend catching up on my reading of the blogs.
We begin at the impromptu party staged by Eva as a diversion at the restaurant with Rebeca, Renato, Lucia, Santi and Angelica.
An inebriated Adriano and Eva leave the restaurant. Eva leads Adriano down the stairs, who copes a feel on her derriere,
Helena is worried about Lalo who is missing a male figure in his life. Silvia says that he is confused; he has grandpa, JC who died, his father who left, etc. Helene wants to be cautious and doesn’t want to let Lalo down. Silvia asks is it Lalo or she who is cautious.
Rebeca looks for Eva and Adriano. The attendant tells her that they left in his car.
At Adriano’s house- he falls on top of Eva. She is ready to fight and Adriano is looking for love. She will be his.
At Ferni’s they are eating dinner with Daniel and Marsela asks Danny about his mother and if she cooks. Danny’s mom spends time at home and cooks and Marsela defends working moms. (Fernando has no table manners)
Eva defends her honor, she is a respectable woman and Adriano is begging. He falls asleep. Mimi calls and Eva lets her know that Adriano is begging and wants proof of her love. Mimi is going to come over.
Rebeca calls Eva and lets her/him know that the jig is up.
Eva shrugs her off and tells her to get a life.
Adriano is getting desperate.
Back at the restaurant-Renato is asking questions about Eva and Angelica starts singing loudly. The other patrons are looking. Santi is embarrassed.
Adriano keeps on begging for a whiff and falling out on the couch.
Danny asks Jennifer for a little kiss for the road. Danny has a plan, lets go to my parents place in Ixtalpa and spend the weekend? Jennifer says that her parents will not go for that. Danny has plans for Jennifer that are not honorable. He is dangerous.
Eva puts Adriano to bed and Mimi is waiting outside of his house.
Pluto calls Helena- he wants Helena to recuperate and return to work, he misses her. He is still forcing the issue.
Eva explains to Mimi what is going on. They peek in on a sleeping Adriano. Mimi adores him. Mimi undresses him. He beckons Eva to the bed. (So the girls are going to play bait and switch). Mimi tells Eva that this is the opportunity to prove that she is an upright woman and relieve Rebeca from her suspicions. Mimi is going to rock Adriano’s world and make him believe that it’s Eva. What a friend!! Mimi returns to the bedroom and turns off the lights and tiptoes into bed with Adriano who is calling for Eva.
A drunken Adriano makes love to who he thinks is Eva Maria. Mimi is having the time of her life. (For someone so drunk, Adriano, sure has a lot of energy!!!)
Back at the restaurant- Angelica and Renato are having a marvelously loud time. Santi is a little uncomfortable with the whole scene. Lucia asks Santi if everything is okay with his marriage, she doesn’t want to be a buttinski. Santi lies- Angelica is the woman of my dreams. He teases Lucia about she and Renato. He was hoping that he could change her (angelica) as she laughs aloud.
Juan is thinking about Helena and remembering when he told her to wait, while Helena is thinking about him and will never love anyone the way that she loves him. She asks Juan to leave her alone, get out of her head. At the same time Juan Carlos is thinking about his one and only love, Helena.
Santi is trying to convince Angelica to study something other than dancing; Angelica tells him she is not a boring wife like his ex, Patti. (That’s for sure, nor does she have any class) While Santi and Angelica are arguing, Renato and Lucia leave. Angelica tells Santi that if he misses Patti, go back to her. The waiter brings the HUGE check; Santi’s face loses color.
Renato leaves Lucia at the curb and drives off. Really???
The next morning, a very satisfied Adriano is complimenting (Mimi) Eva and asks her to marry him. That was some session!!! Mimi sadly agrees.
Mimi slips out of the room and tells JC that there is no doubt that Eva is the woman, thanks to her!!! Mimi tells JC that Adriano proposed to her and she said yes. Que, que, what!!!!!
Eva left a note- “Spent a marveloussssss night. See you later in the office, Eva.”
At Ferni’s Jennifer is complimenting her mother on working, running the house and being super woman. Kevin is looking for his birthday gift. Ooops, they forgot! Marsela wants to give him a harp while Ferni wants to give him a motorcycle. Kevin prefers the motorcycle.
Marsela feels bad that she forgot Kevin’s 15th birthday. Ferni and Marsela are arguing about spending money for the harp or the motorcycle while an exuberant Adriano greets them, (the married couple) looking for Eva. Rebeca bursts into Eva’s office. Eva tells Rebeca that she is boring her and fed up with her suspicions. Adriano floats into Eva’s office and thanks her for the aphrodisiac, it worked well. Rebeca is impactada. Her mouth drops to the ground. Rebeca asks if they…? Adriano is a gentleman so he doesn’t want to give details. Rebeca, her animal print top and tight skirt, leave the office in disbelief. Adriano is still relishing in the night of nights that they spent together. Eva brings up the hiring the women that were fired and batters her eyebrows and Adriano melts.
Helena wishes Lalo goodbye and to have a good day at school. Silvia notices that Helena did not sleep well. Helena was thinking and doing a little work.
Helena calls Pluto and he is a happy camper. She feels fortunate to be with him and he is so marvelous, Yuck, Rebeca barges into Pluto’s office. He lets her know that he is very happy being at Helena’s side. Rebeca has a big surprise for him.
Santi lets Rebeca know that she left him with the check last night. Rebeca says that Santi is a dummy and not a macho man who knows how to handle his woman like Ferni. Ferni agrees. What a waste>
Cindy summons the three stooges into a board meeting. Rebeca is going to uncover something spectacular. She says that Juan Carlos is not dead and is closer than they think. Santi and Ferni have a good laugh. She heard it from Juan Carlos’ mother Eugenia Mistrial.
At the board meeting- Renato announces that Eva is going to announce the restructuring of the company. Eva is going to show her proposal to rehire the 100 women who were fired. Pluto is none too happy. Adriano can’t stop smiling.
The doctor visits Eugenia and asks about when her magazine article is going to come out. She said that it was nothing but a deception. She also doesn’t believe that her son is alive either. The doctor is elated. Pluto is none too happy with the risky plan.
Pluto needs an economical guarantee. Eva offers her shares that Antonia left her. Adriano is in total agreement with the proposal.
Rebeca calls Pluto back; she had something to share that is very serious with everyone who works at Grupo Imperio.
Coming attractions:
Pluto marrying Helena?? Rebeca exposes Eva at the board meeting. (I wonder if Mimi is dressed as Eva?)

I won't get to read the recap till tomorrow, but for now I'm just grateful we finally got to see another episode!
Julie-hope you are well too. I remember those blowing snowstorms quite well up there.
Oh, Mimi took one for Eva, but she absolutely enjoyed herself. I felt sorry for Mimi when she was crying. That was sad. I just hope there isn't any after effects for her later.
Rebeca just won't give up. I wonder if anyone will beleive Eva is JC. I think Adriano will intervene. I loved how Fern and Santi were doing a parody of ghost busters in the office once Rebe left, lol.
I don't like Daniel at all. I hope he doesn't do anything bad to Jennifer. And you are right TJ, Fern has no table manners. He had alfredo sauce all over his lips. It's funny how Fern and Angelica have the same table manners.
I liked the little convo that Lucia and Santi were having at the table. They so fit together way better than Renato or Angelica do with them. Renato is an idiot, I can't beleive he left Lucia there without a ride, and his car, lol. Those tiny little things I have seen them with windup keys in the back, lol.
I am hating the Pluti and Helena story line. I hope she finds out about his bad deeds way before she gets further involved with Pluti. I loved the split screen convo with Helena and JC. Please get out of my heart (Helena) and JC I love you so much, the love of my life, sigh.
The whole bait and switch deal was funny except for Mimi's tears. She really does love her big bear.
Lucia was partly at fault for being left at the curb. Renato did offer to give her a ride, but she kept protesting, saying she didn't want to bother him, she could get a cab, etc. Instead of playing her game, he just said "OK" at took off.
Ay, pobre de Juan! I'm afraid Helena will go ahead and proceed with the Pluto connection. Could she think better is her hair wasn't such a tangled mess?
La Paloma
Paloma, I agree, Lucia had it comin'. At least twice Renato told her get in the car. If she says, "No, I'll take a cab," she can't blame him for believing her. We're seeing that Renato don't play no games. And if someone goes fishing for compliments around him, saying, "I'm so boring, you probably don't want me around," he'd agree!
Renato is driven to rise fast, and he's on the lookout for people's weak points he can exploit. So he latched on to Angelica's hint that she and Rebecca are from the same "zip code." Which means that Rebecca came from the lower classes. You can bet he's going to make good use of that intel.
As for the previews of the board meeting? I'll wager tacones to chanclas that it was JC's dream or imagination.
I sure hope that Rebeca's revelation to the staff is a dream or another switcheroo.
I agree that Lucia kind of deserved to be left by Renato. He asked her like three times to get in the car and offered to take her home, but she kept playing games and saying she would just take a taxi. Maybe she'll learn next time to just say what she wants and what she means, at least with Renato. I was struck once again by how at ease she and Santi are with each other. I wonder how long it will take for at least one of them to realize they are a good match?
Something will for sure stop Rebe from revealing the truth about JC/Eva. I have to give her props for persistence though. Even the "evidence" of a romantic night between Adri and Eva hasn't convinced her.
Speaking of that romantic night, I agree that Mimi is the one who is going to get hurt by this. She is falling deeper in love, and her heart is being broken bit by bit as Adri becomes more attached to Eva.
I too hope that the preview of Rebecca outing Eva by pulling at her blouse is JC's imagination.
Renato sure doesn't play games -- at least not Lucia's kind of games. I bet in the end they end up good friends and he teaches her to be up front with her feelings & needs -- by refusing to go along with her coyness as he did when he said ok then & drove off.
Interesting the info that Renato got about Ixtalpa -- doubly interesting since it's also the site of Daniel's family's country house. That can't be an accident -- what can the connection be?
I'll be out of town & off line for the rest of the week. Stay warm everyone.
Gîera
Wow, Mimi has put herself in a tough spot. Now Adriano is even more enamored of Eva and Mimi is more enamored of him. I know Adriano was drunk but still it doesn't say much for his cognitive skills if he didn't notice Eva shrinks to half her size when she's lying down. Didn't he wonder what happened to those long legs?
I'm wondering if the note, in Mimi's handwriting, is going to come into play.
Renato driving off without Lucia was too funny.
I thought the show was very sad last night. Santiago being embarrassed by Angelica's outgoing personality, Helena begging the image of Juan to leave her in peace, but worst of all was Mimi in bed with Adriano. She suffered through him making love to her knowing he thought she was someone else. How awful. I was very glad that it was her idea and not JC's. I could not have forgiven that, and it would have ruined the show for me to be against the hero.
I also thought the Mimi thing was sad, sad, sad. I'm hoping that later, at the end of the show when everyone is with their rightful partner and the bad guys are paying their dues, that Adri tells her that he knew it was her all along. After all, Eva is so much taller than Mimi for one thing (yeah, I know, suspend all thoughts of reality when watching these shows).
Best wishes to all those affected by the storms.

Actually what I found most sad was that she still found him appealing when he was nearly passed out on the bed. YUCK. I mean, I guess it's sort of cute in a way that she wasn't repulsed, but I would personally not be turned on by that!
When I remind myself that it's only a novella, I can say that this is one of the funniest episodes. I felt a pang of sorrow for Mimi because she really loves this guy but he was a drunken mess when she made love to him. Watching this with my Latina compadres,, they noted that she called him her little 'teddy bear"'.
I just hope Adri somehow falls in love with Mimi. She's a great broad.
