Caray, Caray!

Pancho begins by telling everyone that tonight is the big event.  Jesus is trying to find out, what event and Alma sidetracks him by saying that it is a surprise for Jesus.  Pancho’s phone rings, he excuses himself and tells Alma and Jesus not to miss him. Hahaha!!  Jesus and Alma share- “Que the heck” glances.  Alma is a little nervous but Jesus feels that they are good people and that there is nothing to worry about.  Jesus helps Alma to take off her lined coat??? (Why is she wearing that?)  They are alone and Alma thinks that it’s a bad idea that they traveled alone.  Jesus asks if she is scared??? (Wink, wink)  They look at each other as if they are ready to jump on the table in front of them.  We get some scenic photos of Nuevo Leon and then back to Avon.  Enter Dr, Loca- I mean Dr. Marta heading straight towards Marisela’s desk.  She wants to talk to her for 5 minutes. (Note to Marisela- you may need some mace for this chat)  Marisela agrees and Xochy and Susanna note the strange behavior of the psychiatrist who herself needs therapy.   Xochy asks Susanna about Don Sebastian.  They are taking it slow.  Susanna shares that in Acapulco she and Sebastian had a good time.  Paty the Back Stabber brings Rogue the memory stick.  (I hope that he had more than one)  Rogue wants to know if she slept with him.  Why no, Rogue are you jealous???  Paty the back stabber hugs Rogue.

Alma feels weird, but not because of Rogue.  She doesn’t want to be there for the complicated reasons.  Alma asks about Jesus and Vero.  She wants him to be happy and Jesus reminds Alma that his happiness is not with Vero.  Jesus asks Alma why did she ask about Vero at Rogue’s house?  Did she know something?? Then they share long, loving glances at each other.  She doesn’t know what he is talking about and gently takes her hand.  We can all feel the sexual tension. Candelaria aka Candy comes in and announces that the meeting will begin soon, inappropriately hits Jesus with her butt and gives out the folders, throwing Alma’s folder to her and gently handing Jesus his folder.  Alma throws daggers at this person.

Dr. Marta tells Marisela that she is owes her an apology about sending the photos of Elias.  It was childish!  Que the hell??  Did she have a lobotomy?? She was nervous and depressed and didn’t know what was she was thinking.  If they are going to fight for Elias, then it should be civilized.  This time Marisela acts like the fool.  Dr. Marta puts out her hand to shake and asks if they can be friends???  Marisela doesn’t buy it and tells the good doctor that she is super, super crazy.  The good doctor responds that she is a super, super little stupid girl.  (I guess that she didn’t get the lobotomy.) 

Elias is having coffee with his lawyer and concedes that he has lost Vero.  The lawyer says that he is an honest lawyer (is that an oxymoron???)  He should quit while he is ahead.  Start a new life.

Alma is not pleased with the provocative attention that Candy is giving Jesus. Ahem!!!  Alma scolds Jesus for encouraging the behavior with his smile.  Which smile?? The smile makes me all warm and tingly, Jesus.  Alma zips her lips for a change.  Jesus asks about the reason for the meeting and Alma says that it’s about Rogue’s case and that Rogue is innocent until proven guilty.  Jesus is a giddy but bothered by Rogue being referred to as Alma’s husband.  He also knows that Alma knows something about Vero that she won’t tell him.  Come on Alma, tell me, we’re friends.  Jesus as a married woman, I don’t have the right to say anything about your wedding with Vero.

Jesus and Alma share an almost kiss glance and Rebeca, Pancho’s wife interrupts.  Jesus is introduced.  Pancho enters, speaking to his daughter, Lupita on the phone.  She is spoiled but don’t tell anyone.- LOL . To Pancho- family is the most important!  Jesus agrees about the family being the most important and Rebeca asks if he is married.  Alma answers not yet.  Pancho wonders why is it important to Alma??  Jesus tells the couple about 6 year old Val.  Rebeca asks Alma if she is going to have kids.  Silence.  Pancho thanks her for inviting them to their wedding but they couldn’t go the kids were sick.

Pancho begins the meeting about Rogelio Rivanera aka Rogue.  (Why are they screaming???) Candy brings food, tamales, quesadillas, cheese, hot chocolate and other delicacies to the board meeting.  Are they going to meet or eat???

Chatita is looking for Cardenas’ office and of course nosy Jessica and the 3 Stupids have to direct her to it.

Pancho introduces the board- his wife,  Executives Felipe and Victor.  Someone is missing.

Pancho speaks about importance of Human Capital and giving the workers the best living conditions and they want to continue to be leaders in the skin care market, etc. The missing person arrives, she was late because she in a conference with the legal authorities in Nuevo Leon about Rogue’s case.  Maria Jose is introduced to the Niño, Jesus.

Cinderella aka Vero is ironing when Elias comes to visit. Val wants to show him some of her drawings.  Elias is in disbelief.  Vero ironing!!! Elias will give Vero the divorce as soon as possible. Vero looks confused.

Vero can’t believe her ears.  Elias is claiming defeat at this  exhausting war.  Little Val wants to know- what’s up???

Maria Jose- Legal Director. Is ogling Jesus.  Pancho calls her to attention mixing up the words protest with context.  Maria Jose has to be called to attention once again for ogling Jesus. Alma does not happy at all.  Maria goes on to ay that a company with International notoriety cannot support delinquent behavior. Alma tries to defend Rogue, saying that he is not a delinquent and declaring his innocence. Jesus speaks up for Rogue (I’m not sure why??)  Rogue is not there to defend himself, he goes on.  Pancho tells Jesus that he has character but the decisions are made by a committee and the 2 Simpletons get up and are immediately silenced and seated.

Candy agrees with her sister in law, Rebeca and says that if someone is corrupt they have to pay.  Maria Jose tells Jesus that he is handsome but she is the legal expert. (How true, but inappropriate) Maria Jose speaks about upholding the public image of the company and Alma once again defends her hubby.  Jesus speaks up again.

Alma’s phone rings, she is reminded that cell phone are not permitted during disciplinary meetings.  Rogue is trying to find out what is going on at the meeting. (Side note- why do I feel like the Brady bunch is going to come down the stairs behind Rogue?) Alma will call him back.  Pancho keeps calling Alma everything but Alma, this time it’s Palma.  Every time the simpletons attempt to stand they are immediately seated. Jesus defends Rogue who is innocent until proven guilty and reminds Pancho that he was arrested once, which changes the direction of the conversation.  He was framed, it was an injustice.  Point taken, Jesus.  Since family is important and Rogue is a member of the family, they have to protect him.

Chatita finds Oliverio (Cárdenas) She brings him some cookies to thank him for introducing her to his square girlfriends (TVs)  She teases him that she put rat poison in the cookies. 

Why are there so many commercials tonight?????  Or is it me????

Elias explains to Val the reason for the divorce.  They will divorce without fighting.  Val wants to know what is going on with mommy and Papa Jesus?? That little old lady folds her arms!!! What an actress!!!

Candy has written Jesus’ name in a heart on her ipad. (What does this have to do with the meeting???)  Candy tries to convince Pancho that everyone deserves a second chance.  He has a noble heart but he can’t run the company with his heart and the stakeholders are nervous, why is Candy showing what she wrote on her ipad.  Que the heck??

Jesus wants to have a press conference to clear the air.  Rogelio keeps calling.  (Why didn’t she shut off her phone???)  She leaves the phone on-  Rogue is removed from his post immediately.   Maria is on Rogue’s case calling him a rotten apple.  Maria wants him fired and Pancho is the only one who can fire him.  The next thing I know is that  Rebeca and Pancho share a kiss during the board meeting.(and this is why I stopped watching that novela.)

Rogue should be suspended.  Rogue is still listening.  Rogue doesn’t want Jesus to defend him or get involved.  Maria reads a declaration that means bottom line-Rogue has to be suspended until his case is cleared up. It doesn’t seem as if the women are really listening to Jesus, just looking through him. Alma has been named as the Northern Regional Director.  Rogue is against the decision and thankfully no one hears him.  He insults Pancho, but who cares??? Alma is shocked and thanks Jesus for trying.

Chatita asks Cárdenas an intimate question, while he is enjoying the cookies.  Chatita and Genevieve are worried about his feelings for Jessica.

Elias  will make an appointment with the lawyers and he feels that Vero is not sad over the news of the divorce.  Vero says that he deserves more like a family.  Elias reminds us that he is sterile and can’t have a family, he can adopt and he can always be close to Val and be happy.

Pancho calls Alma, Espiritu and she has to sign the memo naming her the new Northern Regional Director.  Jesus gives her words of confidence and they share a hug. Rebeca tells Alma that Pancho is never in a bad mood  ad he always has a smile on his face for his family no matter what.  Alma can’t say the same for her hubby.

Rogue is insulting Sanson for liking Jesus and the doorbell rings.  It’s Sebastian. 

Cardenas shares with Chatita that Jessica is in love with Fern, Rogue’s brother.  Cardenas is not sure if Jessica is the woman of his dreams.  We shall see. Chatita tells him that she will be a sincere friend to him.  Cardenas appreciates the gesture.

Sebastian visits Rogue because he is worried about his legal case.  He wants to know where Rogue got the money to help him to get out of his financial ruin.  Rogue lies that it’s his father’s inheritance.  Sebastian is worried that all of his fortune is dirty money.  It’s perfectly legal.  Yeah right!!!! Sebastian wants clarity on his lover??

Alma tires to defend Rogelio’s mood on what is going on. Even she doesn’t believe it. Rebeca notes that Alma and Jesus are in love.  She notes their glances and her sixth sense tells her that love cannot be hidden.  It’s obvious!  There is nothing between Jesus and I.  It could have been.  Sure, Alma.

Pancho shares tequila with Pancho and shares pictures of Val on his ipad.  Pancho shares pictures of his twins on an old billfold. Being a father is a blessing and the two men bond.  Pancho shares that he is not a fan of Rogue and notes that Jesus is not a fan, either.  Jesus asks if Rogue came to visit Pancho awhile back by airplane.  Since Rogue lied that he saw Pancho outside of the office, Jesus asks if Pancho met with him.  Pancho tells Jesus that he is a good man and he hasn’t seen Rogue in over 6 months.

Coming attractions:

Jesus gets his surprise award and does he finally tell Alma how he really feels or suspects??
