Por ella soy Eva #141 2/6/13: Helena's Eyes Are Opened, A New Spa May Be Opening and There Are Fools Galore!


Side note- I’m not sure who was able to watch “El Gordo y La Flaca” today. It was live from Mexico City.  Some cast members from Por Ella were on.  Jaime Camil wasn’t able to be there but Helena- Lucero, Rebeca sans the animal print, Pluti, sans the slick hair and shiny suits and Mimi- Patty Natividad.  Mimi (Patty) dressed El Gordo like a woman and there was a poll on which “woman” did we prefer- El Gordo or Eva.  Eva won. Lucero also sang “No Me Dejes Ir”.  She looked very nice in a gold mini skirt.  It was refreshing to see the cast in a different light.

Juan is going to tell Helena that he is Eva, but Oneismo’s minion is following them.

Fernando has made a decision, he will work overtime to pay back Grupo Imperio the money that he owes them and then he is quitting his miserable job!!!
Mimi calls Juan just in time; she has news, the real cousin Eva is there.    The real Eva speaks in her outside voice, calling Mimi- Emeteria and asks her who is she telling that she is there?

Juan realizes that someone is photographing them.  He runs after the photographer.

Mimi lies to the real Eva, she talks about jealousy, but who in their right mind would be jealous of her?

Marsela tells Fernando that her new department has been approved and she will be making double. Fernando starts his foolish rant about her denying him from the travelling job.
Fernando’s pride is hurt more than anything else and Jennifer and Kevin show up and could hear them shouting from outside.    The parents fluff over the argument and everyone gets ready for work, school,

Santi warns Lucia about Sebastian.  She explains that she interrupted his wedding thinking that it was Sebastian’s.  Sebastian is a part of Lucia’s destiny according to her.

Juan catches up to the photographer and throws him into the pool, asking, who sent him.  Juan has the camera.  Helena is relieved that the man wasn’t armed.  They deduce that Pluti is behind it.
Oneismo tells Rebeca that he has the $3 million dollars.  If she wants to see that money, she has to pay up.  He will show her the money if she shows him her body. She throws him out. (And she better not even think about bothering the Virgencita)

The real Eva has painters and carpenters coming over.  She wants to close the rooming house. (She is most annoying)

Juan and Helena have to cut their trip short. They don’t ant to take any risks.

Pluti calls Oneismo to check up on Helena. Oneismo lies and says that he hasn’t seen her with anyone. (It’s not a lie)  He calls his flunky, who tells him that he was caught and they have the camera.
Juan has 2 options- one- go to the police or two go to the US and get the $3 million dollars that is in the bank.  Either way he will spend time in jail.  Helena is not in agreement with the options. Juan better not dare leave her alone again. 

Fernando is in the Dead Files warehouse reading files about the company paying out a lawsuit regarding an employee who got hurt on the job. (I’m impressed that he can read)  Is he considering a lawsuit?

Since someone was following them, its time to pack and end their trip.

Juan takes a call from Mimi and feels bad that he has her involved in this hullabaloo with the real Eva.  Juan will find a solution and he swears that he will not leave her alone.

Rebeca flirts with Mendoza inviting him to the Jacuzzi to relieve a little stress.  She feels like Snow White, Pocahontas or Sleeping Beauty, humph more like the wicked witch - Ewww.

The real Eva has rounded up all of the guests from the boarding house and has asked them to leave.  It’s her house. Mimi reminds her that these are paying people.  Eva tells her to return their money.  Mimi will help them to find a new rooming house.  They have 24 hours to vacate the premises according to the real Eva.

Eugenia makes plans with Chepina to receive the filming crew.  Eugenia has chosen The Verona Institute for Claudia.

Fernando is reading more of the dead files and reads to see if the file is about negligence.

Helena and Juan leave Acapulco separately.  Helena goes onto to Playa Mayagua and Juan takes a bus back.

Adriano confesses to Pluti that he and Eva aren’t doing too well.  Pluti deduces that women are traitors.  He puts in Adriano’s head that she may be two-timing him.

Helena meets with the councilman to assure him that she is trying to find a solution to the FITSA’s Construction issue.  She is going to meet with the boss from her job next week.  It was important to her that the construction company respected her requirements,  He reminds her that the only reason that they haven’t stopped the construction is because of their faith in her.  She realizes that her original plan was plagiarized and at the next board meeting she will be able to prove it.

Eugenia takes Claudia to the school and recognizes Daniel who is kissing Jennifer.
Pluti lets Raul know about the love troubles between Eva and Adriano.  He tells her about Rebeca and asks why does he keep her.  Pluti also wants to keep his enemies close.
Mendoza ( sorry but he reminds me of Uncle Fester with hair from the Addams Family) he is in Pluti’s office and Pluti is reminding him about trying to court Eva, especially now since her engagement with Adriano is on the rocks.
Pluti warns Mendoza to stay away from Rebeca because she is worse than a boa constrictor.  Mendoza asks why is she still around and Pluti says because he wants to keep his enemies close. (haven’t we heard that before)  He wants to give her a good punishment because she is a real headache.

Eugenia is sure that its Daniel, who played chauffeur in the casting joke, but he walks away and Claudia plays dumb.  Eugenia demands to know his name. address,  his telephone number to locate his parents ,etc.  Claudia gives her a false name, Jesus Anibal Galas.  Really?  (Hopefully Eugenia knows that teenagers, lie- thank you Judge Judy)

Juan Carlos is staying at a hotel as to not arise suspicions with the real Eva being there but Mimi feels that his absence may arise suspicions.  Juan has a plan but he needs for the real Eva to leave so that he can go and get dressed as Eva at the rooming house.

Eugenia goes to the Principal and of course he can’t find Daniel aka Jesus.   The Principal says that the students of his school are examples of discipline and civility.  No student from his school would never participate in such a heinous act. Eugenia can’t believe that he wouldn’t alert the student’s parent of misbehavior.   Eugenia’s mind is very clear and Claudia motions to the Principal that she is crazy. The principal  suggests that his school may not be the school for Claudia.
Helena is speaking to a representative from Fitsa  regarding the fact that Fitsa is not involving the local people in the construction project and the agreement said so. but according to a memorandum that he received he can only negotiate with Pluti or Raul.  Helena is livid.

Lucia is happy to tell Santi that she is going to dinner tonight with Sebastian.  (Hasn’t she learned anything??)It’s going to be romantic with music, candles and wine blah, blah, blah. She’s a modern, contemporary woman who doesn’t wait for the man to initiate the first move. (I can hear her anvil speeding towards Earth)

Daniel calls Claudia and tells him that Eugenia recognized him but she threw her of his trail.  He owes hr one.  Just let him know when they can be alone.  He wants to know the time and the place, he will be there.

Helena returns home to Lalo and Silvia.  Lalo notes that Helena is more happy than usual, her eyes look as if she is in love.  (what a perceptive little boy)

At the club- Sebastian had a terrible marriage,  they fought from day one, he married her too soon,, blah, blah, blah. There was something magical, a religious experience between he and Lucia.  He gives her the speech –that women come and go but there is no one like her., blah, blah, blah.  He didn’t know what he had lost.(Eye rolling time)  She is in his heart.  Lucia reminds him hat he used those same words before, the night before he got married. (Then why is she listening again???) He was a fool, he misses her,  and doesn’t she believe him.  She has grabbed his heart and soul, kiss, kiss, kiss. Poor Lucia.

The real Eva is going shopping for the spa.  She is going to have carpenters and construction workers there.  Mimi tells Juan that the coast is clear so he can come now.

Daniel the jerk meets Claudia, and she presses him about Jennifer, who is the flavor of the day.  He is looking for a real woman.  Where can he find one? They kiss.

Helena calls Juan to tell him about how Pluti is exploiting her project.  She wants to speak to Eva and Adriano about what is going on.  She loves him more than ever.

Back at the car-Claudia knows how to kiss very well. If Danny wants more than he has to drop Jennifer. (That will be good for Jennifer in the long run.)

Helena bursts into Pluti’s office and asks why is he pushing her further away from the Playa Mayagua project and what is he hiding?? As usual- Pluti has the "Duh uh" as he thinks of a lie.

Coming attractions-
The real Eva was put up to this by "Dog”berto- yuck.  So it will be Real Eva against Juan Carlos/Eva.  It should be interesting

Awesome summary, TJ!! I was working from home today and got to see the cast on El Gordo y Flacca too!! It was great to see PLuty (Marcello) and Rebe (Marianne) clapping and bopping to Lucero's closing song while she performed it. Very nice of the two of them. Jaime Camils name kept coming up even though he couldn't make it.

That damn real-Eva is turning Mimi's life upside down. Shoot!

So the thug didn't get the pictures after all. That's what you get for hiring a sub contractor. I hate sub contractors....but in this case, it worked out well for mi Nina y niño!

Thanks so much TJ for translating Helena's conversation with the Playa M. reps. That was tough for me to follow and you really helped my Spanish with that one!! Boy was she ever pissed!

I totally agree...Mendoza looks like Fester with hair. Verrrry creepy!! Gertie


 

Tablet Jefa, thank you for the recap and the heads up about the "El Gordo y La Flaca". There is a rerun tonight so I will be able to record it. I also liked your comparison of Mendoza to Uncle Fester.

I feel so sorry for Mimí. The real Eva is a brutal piece of work.
Scary.

Fernando is so stupid he probably is thinking of making some sort of claim against the company for an injury. He wouldn't have to really DO anything. He is such an expert at that.

Jarifa





At this point, I hope Onésimo ends up with the money on a tropical island somewhere.
 

Thanks, TJ, for an excellent recap.

Helena should be angry at being shut out of the PM negotiations. Let's hope she's able to turn the problem around.

I look forward to seeing Eva vs. Eva. Maybe there could be a fatal shootout at the end, with both Evas gone for good. The real Eva looks too fluffy to be such a snake. Funny but deadly.

Dirty Daniel deserves a giant anvil. Claudia needs some heavy duty community service.

La Paloma
 

TJ: Thanks for this awesome recap. Loved the whole thing. So Helena now knows are far the sticky fingers of Pluti and Mendoza go. Loved your take on him as Uncle Fester too, so true, lol. I hope she is able to tell Adri.

I can't stand the real Eva, I am still wondering if she really is the real Eva. I wonder if Dogbert just got someone to pose as the real Eva. I hate how she yells like the house/pension belongs to her completely, I thought it was owned by Mimi and the Real Eva. I hope that JC/Eva's plan works.

That Daniel has got to go, right along with Claudia, I am sooo done with her, unless for some reason she wants Jennifer out of Daniel's clutches. Although, I am still not liking what Claudia is doing to Eugenia.

I'm with you Jarifa, I wouldn't put it past Fern to have an "accident" and sue,he is so jealous of Marcella it isn't even funny. He's such a jerk.

TJ: I liked what you said about Lucia too and the anvil hurtling to earth for her. She really is dumb and to fall for the same old line, I can't beleive she is that dense. Maybe Sebastian will do the same thing he did last time, dump her and then poor Santi will be there to pick up the pieces.

Jarifa: With you too about Onesimo and that money. I had to laugh when Rebe was bothering the Virgincita again. Too funny. She will have to give it up in order to even get Onesimo to show her the money. lol.



 

Excellent retelling, TJ.

When Dogbreath first arrived Mimi foolishly explained the entire ownership of the pension and the unknown whereabouts of her cousin to him. I don't believe this woman is the true Eva, maybe she is Mrs. Dogbreath, or hopes one the hold that title. Whatever the case, she and Dogbreath are after Mimi's pension.

Does anyone else remember the first lunch meeting of Daniel and Jennifer's families? I thought Daniels's mother talked about how they had to move because of some trouble, maybe caused by Daniel. For some reason I have this feeling that Fern will fine some crucial information about Daniel buried in those boxes and he will save Jenifer just in the nick of time. Fern frequently needs a frying pan adjustment, but I so want him the straighten up (just a bit) and even more that that I want that family to stay together and be ok.

Sue in Florida
 

I have a funny feeling that you are right , Sue. Fern in his infinite wisdom may find out some valuable information about Daniel and his family. I hope so, Daniel needs to disappear.

 

Great recap TJ. So many frustrating situations last night. Helena and the Fitsa guy; Original Recipe Eva causing trouble; Eugenia being disses and dismissed by the school head and Claudia; Fernando, Fernando, Fernando...

So Fernando wants to pay Marcela back the money she already paid back to GI-- the money he stole-- because he can't stand being indebted to his wife. Should have thought of that before stealing, idiot. And yet again, he can't be happy for her success. He says he's going to quit his job, the family's needs be damned, because he hates the job. He was clearly expecting Marce to fight him on it. Instead, she's supportive, because with her new salary she can take care of the family without struggling solo on her old salary. He's free to find himself or whatever, and hey, while he's at it he can take some of the household load off of her. Does this make him happy? Nope! Now he's mad because he thinks she's throwing her success in his face. Que, que, what?!

I am so done with this guy. I hope you guys are right that he finds something that outs Dan as a creep and helps his daughter. I'm still of a mind that all he wants to do is fake and injury so that he can get a load of money to flash in Marce's face.

I know one was a wife beater, and the other a bigamist, but at least Bastardo and Modesto WORKED and provided for their families.
 

Thanks, TJ. I laughed when you said you were surprised Fernando can read.

Lucia says Sebastian said the same thing (used those same lines) the last time, and she still gets all moony eyed over it? The character is completely hopeless.

Jarifa, I've thought the same thing- that I hope Onesimo ends up with the money- but was afraid to admit it.

I agree, Vivi. Fernando whines, Marcela supports, and he gets mad. Is he five years old?

One more time Juan attempts to tell Helena the truth...

 

Does anybody have trouble believing this Sebastian guy is actually divorced...?
 

I hadn't thought about the possibility of La Verdadera Eva being actually La Segunda Eva Falsa. Interesting!
 

FYI - in case anyone missed El Gordo y La Flaca today (Feb. 7) - special guests were the cast of La Bonita Amor (Jorge Salinas, Pablo Montero and Arturo Peniche) and the cast of Por Que El Amor Manda (Erik Elias, Blanca Soto, Claudia, Maria and Fernando Colunga).
