Por ella soy Eva #146 2/13/13: Fernando's Anvil Dropped, Another Woman Scorned and So Much More

Hi all, finally a juicy episode.  They have saved the best for last.  These next three weeks are going to be doozies!!!!

Fernando is going to sleep in Kevin’s room because Kevin worries about him.  Marsela clears the table.

Mimi tells Our Eva that the Loud Eva has turned the rooming house into a bordello.  Our Eva says to offer her more money but Loud Eva is too stubborn.  Our Eva wants to call the police and liberate himself from the Loud Eva.  Helena calls Our Eva.  Helena wanted to hear his voice.  Tomorrow she will meet Eva at Silvia’s nursery.  

Renato is working late and asks the security guard to open up Helena’s office so that he can leave some paperwork.

Loud Eva is on the phone with “Chino”.  She has a way to pay him back for the favors that he did for her for keeping the counterfeit merchandise.

Renato is searching through Helena’s office and find some Fitsa Construction Company documents and thinks that Helena is not as innocent as she appears.  He thinks that Helena is involved in some dirty dealings.

Claudia meets Daniel.  Where are we going?  He has beer and Claudia doesn’t drink, she doesn’t like the taste.  But then she opens up a can, I’m confused.

Renato is confused.  Something about Helena and Fitsa doesn’t make sense.

Daniel has been expelled from so many foreign schools since he was a little boy that he can’t keep count. (What a catch- yuck!!)  Claudia wanted to know why he was expelled, he got into trouble didn’t care.  He is the only child, he doesn’t have siblings.  Claudia tells her story, she hardly sees her brother, and she lives with her father.  Her mother was her father’s mistress and her mother died.  When her mother died she was going to be sent to boarding school but she had the option to stay there so she stayed.  They toasted.

Mimi and Our Eva tiptoe into the rooming house, that looks like a nightmare of red and gold.  She wants to know where they have been.  (I can’t take her- she is too loud!!!)

Claudia and Daniel commiserate over their lives.  Claudia would like to go far away where no one knows her (and I am sure that Viewerville) would like to send her away on a one way ticket.  It’s getting late and Claudia is ready to go home but Daniel the Dog has other ideas.  He wants to kiss her and be with her BUT he is still Jennifer’s boyfriend and Claudia is not down with OPP- (Other people’s property) Jennifer is his girl BUT there is no one more important than Claudia.  (This is difficult for me to type because it doesn’t make sense.)  Oh no!!! Come just for a little bit!!!  Daniel can’t believe it himself.  They both go into the car for just a little bit- I call that a quickie.

Back at the screaming match- Our Eva tells Loud Eva that exploiting women is a crime.  It’s not worth it. She sings a different tune.  You can’t buy love and affection. Loud Eva makes crude remarks to Our Eva about being conservative, prudish.

Rebeca doesn’t know what to do but stupid Oneismo has the 3 million dollars.

Loud Eva talks about taking her business to Grupo Imperio but Our Eva tells her that she will need legal identity documents.

Marsela is awakened by some noise in another room.  She goes to investigate with a bat!!!!!! It’s Fernando in the kitchen.  She thought that someone broke into the house.  She asks Fernando- if he is blind.

Our Eva wants to follow Loud Eva and find out exactly what she is up to.  She will allow Mimi’s rooming house to be turned into a spa.

Oh no, the quickie was Claudia’s first time and it was special to her. Daniel being the romantic guy that he is tells Claudia don’t think that this quickie will make us an item. 


It’s a miracle- NOT-- Fernando can see.  He has no shame. Marsela should have used his head as a baseball; instead she starts breaking up everything in sight.

Daniel tells Claudia that he is not going to give up Jennifer for her. He threw back everything that Claudia had told him about her family. He threw a forlorn Claudia out of his car, she had to walk home.  He didn’t even drop her near the door. Boy, oh boy will he learn about a woman scorned!  His anvil needs to drop on my watch!!!!  I also noted that her braid band was broken- was this some type of virginal symbolism?

Marsela was beyond furious and stupid Fernando was trying to justify his blindness, and explain what he was doing!!! Marsela sent the kids back to bed.  She was on a rampage.  Could you blame her?? She cried in her bedroom and I along with Viewerville felt her sadness. Fernando’s anvil finally dropped!

Mad Dad called to find out when he can visit Lalito.  Helena, Silvia and Lalito were going to spend the day at Silvia’s nursery and Mad Dad was surprised that she owned the nursery already.  They can meet at the nursery.

Loud Eva got into a car with some (O.G.) old gangsters  (or undercover police), one was named Chino. She was thanking them for keeping her counterfeit merchandise.  And she would reward him with a big Northern woman, just like what he likes.  The old man was asking about the company and that if she doesn’t deliver, he will kill her..

Marsela sent the kids to grandma’s because she was going to have a loooong talk with the jackass, I mean Fernando.  Fernando complains that no one spoke to him during breakfast and treated him like a ghost.  Marsela told him that the only thing that she wanted to do was kill him. The lawyer shows up, because Marsela called him.

Eva meets Helena , Silvia and Lalito at the nursery. Lalito wanted to see Eva.  Everyone loves the nursery and we are all so proud of Silva. Helena is going to meet Juan and she wants Eva to accompany her.  Uh oh!

Loud Eva is asking for Our Eva and tells Mimi that she has a male friend, who was a singer who is dying to meet her.  Mimi is trying to guess who it is and Loud Eva slips and says “Dog” berto..  Mimi asks Loud Eva if she has seen Dogberto and Loud Eva acts as if she has a lapse in memory and changes the subject. Mimi is adding up two and two.

Marsela tells the lawyer that Fernando has regained his sight and that the lawsuit  will be cancelled. They still have to pay the lawyer and court fees that have been incurred and Fernando will pay back everything..

Eva and Helena are waiting for Juan at the restaurant.  Perhaps he is stuck in traffic.  Mimi calls Our Eva.  She tells Eva that something smells rotten.  Her cousin Eva never  knew Dogberto, but Dogberto appeared and then disappeared and Loud Eva appeared. Our Eva tells Mimi to be tactful. Unbeknownst to Mimi, the Loud Eva is listening.  Mimi calls the Loud Eva “a rat with two legs” a poisonous snake, etc, etc.  Loud Eva thinks that they are trying to deceive her. She is going to make them pay, using her hand as a gun.

Our Eva is going to change into Juan.

Fernando is sitting there looking like the fool that he is and then wants to talk to Marsela.  Marsela can’t believe that he was trying to rob money from this company just like he did to Grupo Imperio.  She has been a fool twice.   He did this on the backs of his family., who didn’t deserve this. Marsela doesn’t want to hear any more pretexts.  Its time for a divorce. (I can hear Viewerville cheering!!!!!!!!!  )

A man , named Gustavo, a client  comes to the nursery (Hipolito from Amor Bravio) and he is looking for a certain type of tree when Mad Dad rudely wants to know who is this man??

Juan shows up, he didn’t realize that his cell wasn’t charge and he was looking for a charger.   Juan was thinking crazy- he wants Helena and Lalo to move somewhere where they can’t be recognized, a family of three. Helena wants him cleared first so everyone can know that he is alive.. Helena has a lot to tell him about Grupo Imperio.

Mad Dad starts his foolishness , he is jealous and now he understands why Silvia was in a hurry to get a divorce. Really,??? Maybe the beatings and insults could have added to the mix??  Gustavo speaks up for Silvia. Hey Mad Dad, you don’t speak to women like that!!!  Silva makes it known that he is her ex husband.  Gustavo says that Mad Dad is too jealous and if he was Mad Dad he wouldn’t forgive himself if he let a woman like Silvia get away!!! (Compared to Mad Dad, Gustavo was looking good)

Juan tells Helena that Pluti is the worst of all., now that he is President he will manipulate his power. She tells Juan that she found the fake thesis in Pluti’s office but Renato found her.  Helena is looking for Eva now, she has to leave now and Juan will wait for Eva. What luck!!!!

Fernando pleads and begs. But Marsela has had enough.  She has loved him but he hasn’t learned his lesson.  He is corrupt as ever!!! He never learns!!!

Loud Eva calls Chino and tells him to bring his flunkies with him.  Our Eva comes and Loud Eva says that they are trying to deceive her and she pulls a gun on them. Loud Eva keeps calling Mimi- Emeteria and Mimi is not happy.

Marsela has had it with his machismo..  She is going to get the kids  from her parents and when she comes back he better be gone.  I loved when he called her Flaquita and she told him to save it!!!

Loud Eva demands respect from Mimi and Our Eva. They can’t leave because someone is coming for them.  Eva’s phone rings and Loud Eva says that if she answers it she will die.

Marsela explains  to the kids at a restaurant without their grandparents knowledge what Fernando did He never lost his sight.  She wants the kids in spite of everything to be strong and continue to respect him as their father.  She is going to separate from Fernando.

At Santi and Lucia’s apartment- Santi is moving.  Lucia is going to miss him.  Lucia thinks that she is going to spend the day with Sebastian and formalize their relationship.  Poor thing.  Her anvil is coming.

Marsela  tells the kids tat the decision has been made.  Jenifer supports her mom and then Daniel  the pig calls Jennifer, who coldly responds.  He wants to see her.

Loud Eva still has the gun on Mimi and our Eva and some men come.  Loud Eva tells them that Our Eva is a criminal and that they should arrest her.  I’m not clear on who these men are?  Are they Chino’s flunkies or the police?  Our Eva identifies herself and tells the police to take her.

Coming attractions:  Pluti is still obsessed with Helena and hopefully Loud Eva disappears.

If I missed anything that Loud Eva said please fill in. She gives me a headache and speaks so quickly that I inadvertently tune her out.
 

Great job TJ.

Woohooo!!!! Marcela has dumped Fernando. I did a happy dance. :)
 

Love it TJ. Thanks.

A collective hoot went up when Fernando got caught. Marsela was terrific. Love the way she ratted him out to the lawyer -- all the while playing it cool to save Fer's dignity. And even after all that he still had the nerve to try to play another guilt trip on her about women's lib. I'm glad she kidked him to the curb -- but I still think that he's going to come to his senses and that he will be redeemed.

I actually felt bad for Claudia tonight. What a sleaze that Daniel is. Not only did he use her to get what he wanted & then dump her -- he even compared her to her mother -- the other woman on the side.

I don't like where this "Chino" story is going. I fear for our Eva & Mimi.

I guess we know what Mendoza was doing at Helena's desk the other day -- planting evidence against her. The anvils are gathering big time.

TJ....awesome recap. This was action packed!!

You said it right when you said that Viewerville would love to send Claudia far away to another place. I noticed the lost braid as well...symbolic of lost virginity...Only in a novella...i can laugh at this one because Claudia has been so mean. Maybe she will come back down to earth and behave like a human again after this experience which really seemed to affect her. She looks 100 times better without the damn braid.

I would have reacted the same way as Marci ...with the baseball bat!! He came so close to bringing that whole family down. Marci is saving his butt and the entire family. Her separation from him is the only thing she can do ... He just won't learn....very sad because I really like this family.

Do you think Renato found some papers that Uncle Fester planted in Helena's office? But why would Renato find said papers before Helena? Or is Renato just mis interpreting something here? I don't feel good about this. Licensada Moreno has a huge target painted on the back of her lovely, low cut Mexicana blouse. If she loses her job, how is she going to be able to sponsor her Mom's new business.?

At the start of the capitulo, I was drooling over the cakes that JC/Eva and Mimi didn't touch when they met for coffee. It is dinner time in LA when I watch this. After work and after yoga...I am 'starvin' like Marvin by 8 pm, Pacific!

I pray that somehow Adri has Renato or someone keeping an eye on things for him and Adri is deliberately giving Pluti enough rope to hang himself. But Adri has been so wrong so many times, especially with his unconditional trust of his brother in law.

Gertie
 

TJ: What a marvelous quick recap. That Loud Eva is tres loud I must say. Half the time I can't understand a word she says. I hate her gum chewing and it looks like she spits when she speaks. I really hope those are the real cops and not Chino's men that have come to the pension. Speaking of the pension, it looks so bad with all the red and gold. Yuk. I hope Our Eva isn't arrested and they haul that Faux Eva right out the door. Then Our Eva and Mimi can turn the pension back into what it used to be.

Loved Fern's anvil, and hey that bat was much better than a fork, I must say. Too bad Marcela didnt' use his head as batting practise. I am so glad he got caught, and he had his nerve yelling about womens' lib. He just can't handle the fact that Marcela is ten times the buisness woman then he is at bidness. I am glad she is wanting to divorce him and after her rage of batting at everything, she handled him and the kids with a lot of grace. I really liked how she stood up for herself and the kids and let him have it.

I too wonder, Gertie, if Adri left G.I. on purpose and this is his way of giving Pluti all the rope he needs to hang himself. Really Adri should have been suspious way before now about all the fraud going on at G.I. First JC, then Rebe, Fern, and now Pluti is trying to set up Helena. Adri's radar should be on overdrive. We will have to wait and see, oh, and Pluti cancelled the outside audit, that should be a BIG clue for Adri.

I have to say I felt sorry for Claudia this epi. I know she has been a royal pain, and I don't like what she has done to Eugenia, but truly she didn't deserve this at all. Daniel needs a couple of forks and a huge cast iron skillet. I don't want him to do this with Jennifer. I have a feeling he is going to try doing something similar with her. He already seems to be breaking down her self esteem with calling her chubby. He about did the same thing with Claudia, relying on her lonliness and feeling like an outsider with her family.

I think Renato, when he was in Helena's office, smells a rat, but not toward Helena. I think he is seeing, for the first time, what Pluti is up too. Now I wonder what he will do. Renato still has that disc he stole from Rebe.
 

Hmmm Madelaine, I keep forgetting about the fact that Renato has Rebe's disc! That disc should be "money!" I hope it has some colorful bedroom encounters with Rebe and PLuty...and more incriminating things to bring PLuty down...way down!!

You are right about no girl deserving that treatment from Daniel...not even Claudia. I hope he gets locked up! It would be kind of cool if Renato gets a chance to knock Daniel on his ass before Daniel gets locked up! Gertie
 

I don't think Daniel thought this through. Sure, he gets sex, but Claudia isn't nice like Jennifer. This is a girl willing to put an innocent woman (eugenia) in the hospital. And given what she knows about dan driving eugenia to the slum, and that he w wants to keep jennifer, how can he think he is he's getting away with this? I feel a little bad for claudia since this happened after she opened up (emotionally I mean) to him but it may lead to his downfall.

I thought Fer might be given a chance to redeem himself by choosing to save Jen over saving his blindness meal ticket. But not sad to see him hit the road. Marciluca deserves better.

Enjoyed your fun and furious recap, T.J. Madelaine, I had the same thought you voiced--the baseball bat was even better than a fork.

Fernando really gave himself away, when he told Marce to put down the bat before she hurt someone. Once he spilled the beans, there she was with a handy weapon.
I was impressed with the way she explained the separation to the kids--that her decision was made, but she would like to hear their thoughts and feelings about it.

Dirty Daniel sounds like he's had practice preying on young women. Claudia said she would drink the beer if he really wanted. Of course, that's not all she ended up doing to please him. He was so cruel to her in the end. The only good thing is if this breaks her enough that she confides in Eugenia and DD gets some payback.

If Eva's in a fight for his/her life, let's hope she still has her big purse!

La Paloma
 

Gertie, I forgot that Uncle Fester was at Helena's desk. it's all starting to click. I agree- Adriano may give Pluti enough rope to hang himself because he does spend time in his chair propped back and thinking.
Vivi- if I wasn't recapping, then I may have moved my happy dance to the street.
 

Tablet Jefa, what a great recap! thanks!

Finally, it looks like Fernando is on his way out the door. After everything the dunce still doesn't get it. He has no sense of morality.

Bastardo was back to being his old bastardo self. Looks like he is another nut that still doesn't get it.

Like several of you, I, too wonder if Adriano is giving Plutarco enough rope to hang himself. Adriano's absence with him being so incommunicado even considering his love woes seems out of character.

No, Claudia did not deserve what she got. Will she make Daniel pay once she is done crying? Sure hope so.

I love the imagery of the anvils that you guys have come up with. I do remember them from the cartoons and they are so fitting.

Jarifa
 

I doubt that Adriano is on to Pluti at all yet. He's too upset over Eva. Adri doesn't have any idea that Pluti cancelled the outside audit. If he finds out he may put two and two together but probably not since he trusts Pluti so much.

Who are the guys that broke into the pension/spa? I fear for our Eva.

It bothered me too when Renato read the incriminating papers in Helena's office. Why hadn't Helena seen them? Maybe the Mensleazo put them there after she left for the weekend. I wish Renato had more faith in Helena -- he seems to have bought in to the fact that she's the one playing games with Fitsa.

Güera
 

Thanks, TJ! You sure got a juicy one! Love the braid symbolism -- that didn't even occur to me. All I could think was, "Oh, so it IS attached to her head."

I tuned in 20 minutes late last night, and there was Marcela with the baseball bat, whacking everything in sight! What a great start!

But my favorite part was Our Eva putting out her wrists with a quivering lip for the policía (I think they really were policía because they had nice haircuts.) She is such a ham.
 

Oh boy, have I got some catching up to do. I can't wait!!

And I'm so relieved that the mystery of the braids has been resolved. I'm glad we didn't have to wait for EVERYTHING in the last week!

Incidentally, I absolutely think that Adriano is suspicious of Pluto. He may even have someone watching Pluto. Maybe it's Renato; maybe it's Helena. Or maybe it's Cindy, who loves Adri so much!! (I'm at a disadvantage, here, not having seen most of this week yet, so maybe I'm way wrong and he's truly not keeping in touch with anyone.)

But I do think Adri is up to something, and the report Helena gave him on her as-yet unrevealed task in Acapulco was instrumental in cluing him in.

So he's not only heartbroken over Eva. He's heartbroken over Pluto, too. And he's not sure yet how bad the problem is. He doesn't trust himself to talk to anyone until this is sorted out.

Just my guess!
 

Julie: That's the same vibe I am getting. Before Eva came to G.I., Adri really never had a clue, but he's been changing now since Eva came, and I really think he finally thinks something isn't right, especially with all these frauds, one right after the other. Maybe Adri is sitting back and watching from afar to see exactly who is doing what, and it really doesn't look good for Pluti. The first thing he does is fire Rebe, then maybe planting some evidence on Helena. Pluti is in demi-god mode and thinks this won't go unnoticed? Hmmmm! I think too that is why Adri is keeping his distance, just to see what else happens while Pluti is in charge.
 

Julie and Mad...I really hope the two of you are right about Adri stepping back due to his suspicions of Pluti and broken heart over Eva. And being a passionate man, Adri would be suffering heartbreak and disappointment with Pluti as well who he saw as family....as Julie says.

Adri's character has been a mix of wisdom, emotion, sexism, passion, strength and weakness but willingness to change ....so it is hard to say where he's at right now (other than in his golf cart). The best thing about him is his willingness to change...thanks to Eva!! We'll see...I so want you guys to be right about this!!

I had a nice laugh when someone pointed out that at least we didn't need to wait till el gran finale to learn the mystery of the hair braids...was that TJ? Thanks!! Gertie
 

That was Julie commenting on the braids. And I couldn't agree more!

In other hair news, I'd like to see how Copetes gets those copetes to copete. If I'm dressing up as him for the final, I'll have to wear a wig.
 

Renato's hair is VERY thick (both the individual strands and the sheer number of them). And if he has a natural cowlick there, it'll stick up a little no matter what he does. So probably only a little mousse or gel is needed to get it to stand up, as long as his hair doesn't get too long.

In OTHER other hair news, do we think Helena will be getting the traditional "change of attitude" haircut that TN heroines often get? That is, does she even need one? Or would it be more meaningful for JC or Eva to have a haircut instead?

Fernando would pretty much have to get his head waxed in order to show a change in attitude.
 

I *love* the "change of attitude" haircut. Probably not Elena, though -- maybe Lucía? She certainly needs some help.
 

Wow, Julie, I am learning about another telenovela convention here: the "change of attitude haircut." Helena, no, but if Marcela really ends up divorcing Frenando then I would like to see her in a short sophisticated style to go along with her new position.
Maybe JC could get a buzz cut?

Jarifa
 

OMG, Blue - Lucia has such pretty hair, but YES, she definitely needs a change of attitude. With or without a haircut.

Yes, Jarifa, the "change of attitude haircut" is definitely a Thing in TNs. Usually it's the heroine, but it can be anyone. This particular TN has broken or bent enough rules so far that maybe the heroine won't get a haircut at all (assuming Helena is the heroine... some might say it's Eva!).

For example, we've already seen a big hairstyle change with Silvia when she broke up with Bastardo. So maybe your prediction about Marcela will come true.

I don't know if Claudia's braid malfunction counts as a haircut...

I know I'd like to see Eugenia lose the headscarf forever.

And how about a haircut for Rebeca?
 

Aww, but Lucia and Marcela have the most beautiful thick black hair. They should do shampoo ads/
 

Maybe Urban Anthropologist could do a weekend blog entry on Change-of-Attitude Haircuts, with pictures. The most dramatic one I've seen was Violeta Isfel's character on FAMILIA, who went from big and red to wispy and blonde.

Sometimes it's a major makeup shift, if they don't want to mess with the hair. Angelique Boyer usually gets those.
 

Lucero in STuD got a dramatic scene where she got to chop off her long hair after she was ditched at the altar by her first love. But that character, E-Val, was ALL about the drama.
