La Tempestad Capitulo 37. September 17th 2013. Oh she's badddddddd alright!! No doubt about that!!!!!

She's alive! She's alive! 
Eusebia tells Marina, Rebeca, and Jose that Esthercita is alive. Reactions all around. 

No puede ser! 
Delfina prays. Esteryuya comes running in with the news that DamFab has been arrested. Esteryuya tells Delfina that Fulgencio accused DamFab of having put the explosives in the sailboat where Esthercita was killed. No puede ser! says Delfina. Esteryuya tells Delfina about the crowd that has gathered outside the police station. Delfina wants to go and speak with DamFab. Esteryuya doesn't think it is a good idea - there is an angry mob there, she says. Delfina doesn't care. She wants to go and speak with DamFab and she wants Esteryuya to come with her. She drags Esteryuya off to the police station. 

Mexico City
At the hospital, Magdis is being taken into the emergency room. Mercedes attempts to go inside the emergency room too. Doc Gonzales (aka The Only Doc In Mexico City) doesn't let her and he ends up having to get security to hold Mercedes back. Mercedes is held back and she ends up falling on her knees and prays to God to not take Magdis from her.

Back in R-Laydee
An angry mob has indeed gathered outside the police station. The crew is there too and they attempt to get inside the police station to see DamFab but are held back by the psuedocops. Marina tells everyone to calm down. Jose is DamFab's lawyer and he'll get him out, says Marina. The town beyotch (thanks to the recapper who came up with that one) yells at Marina and accuses her of having turned DamFab into a murderer. Rosario chimes in with her venom and says that Marina's prescene has poisoned everyone in town. Padre tells his sis to shut it and says that no one has a right to judge anyone. The town beyotch says that they aren't accusing anyone - they are just telling the truth. A second town beyotch chimes in and says - let everyone know that Marina Reverte has been a curse for this town and all of the misfortunes that we are going through is thanks to her. DamFab paces around his cell and hears all the accusations against Marina. Someone from the crowd calls the town gossipers - viejas chismosas. Kudos to whoever yelled that out. The town beyotch yells - We all know that DamFab was beloved and respected but he stained his hands with Esthercita's blood because of this evil woman (Marina). Marina yells back that DamFab didn't kill anyone. The crew defends Marina and DamFab. Lolo even tells the town gossipers to go and tend to their homes. Right on, Lolo. You tell them. The town gossipers yell back and the town beyotch says that the crew defends Marina because she cast a spell on them with the help of Eusebia. A woman comes to Eusebia's defense and tells the town beyotch off. Leave Eusebia alone, she says. The second town beyotch yells - Largate de aqui, Marina Reverte. No te queremos en este pueblo! (Get lost, Marina Reverte. We don't want you in this town!) The town gossipers lunge at Marina and are held back by the crew. Marina is able to get away. 

Like a wild caged animal... 
DamMad has heard all the accusations from his cell. He's worried that they could harm Marina and is furious that he can't do anything to defend her. He is like a wild caged animal and grabs ahold of the bars and shakes them up as he demands to be freed. He yells out - Marina no es culpable de nada! Saqueme. Si le hacen daño les juro que los mato. Se los juro. (Marina isn't to blame. Get me out. If you hurt her I swear I'll kill you. I swear) Not really a smart thing to say, DamFab. You are being accused of murder after all. But I do understand why you said it. DamFab asks God to not let the townspeople harm Marina. He is furious that he is locked up and can't do anything to defend Marina. 

Smelly feet 
Hernan soaks his smelly feet (sorry I couldn't resist, I hate this guy) in the pool and talks to Lara on the phone. He says that Fulgencio has found a good pretext to get rid of DamFab. He asks Lara to keep him informed and hangs up. He says that now he'll have to buy all the necessary wintesses to sink DamFab. He says that DamFab won't get out of this one. 

Mexico City
At the hospital, Mercedes thanks Alicia for having brought her some clean clothes. Doc Gonzales comes out and informs Mercedes that Magdis has pneumonia and that it will be hard for her to survive. Mercedes cries. Alica comforts her. 

Back in R-Laydee 
At the police station, Fulgencio wants Marina to leave him alone. Marina won't leave him alone until he Frees Willy err I mean DamFab. Marina accuses Fulgencio of accusing DamFab unjustly again. We will see about that at the trial, says Fulgencio. Jose asks for there to be an amount set for the bail. They will pay it so DamFab can go home and wait for his trial. Valdivia being the corrupt authority in R-Laydee says that there won't be any bail set because DamFab is being accused of first degree murder! Which means that DamFab will remain locked up until the trial date is set. 

Mexico City 
At the hospital, Mercedes is at Magdis' bedside. Mercedes holds Magdis' hand. Mercedes tells Magdis - You have to fight for your life. You can't back down now. Not now that we are together and that I have finally be able to find you. Ever since you were little you were yanked away from my arms but I always had the hope that I'd find you. And thanks to God and La Virgencita I was finally able to find you. You and your sister are everything for me. Because of you two I am here. I've done everything to move forward and to reunite again as the family that we are. Please fight for your life. Although we will have to make up for lost time. If you are hearing me, don't back down. You are with your mother that will protect you and take care of you with all the love that I have saved for you all these years. Resist. Don't back down. I beg you. Mercedes kisses Magdis' forehead. She watches after Magdis and takes care of her. Doc Gonzales comes into the room to check up on Magdis. Alicia from outside the window asks Mercedes if she wants coffee. Mercedes doesn't want coffee. She doesn't leave Magdis' side. 

Back in R-Laydee
Delfina and Esteryuya are at the police station. Delfina asks Toribio to let her go in and see DamFab. No can do, says Toribio. Fulgencio told him not let anyone see DamFab. Marina, however, was allowed to see DamFab thanks to DamFab's attorney. Marina is with DamFab? asks Delfina surprised. Toribio says yeah but only for a moment in fact I have to go and get her now because her time is up. Delfina begs Toribio to let her go in and see DamFab. It has to do with her daughter's death. Toribio understands Delfina but if Fulgencio finds out it could cost him his job. Delfina doesn't want to cause Toribio any problems but she assures him that she will see DamFab even if Fulgencio doesn't allow it. 

Marina is with DamFab
DamFab: Mi amor, I want you to stay calm. They won't destroy me. I have faith in justice. You are what I most worried about. 
Marina: I am going to be fine. I will be strong to be your support. 
DamFab: Destiny has once again separated us. It is like it insists on putting barriers between us. 
Marina: It doesn't matter what test we have to go through. We will get through this together. 
DamFab: I heard what they yelled at you. I know they blame you for having incited me kill Esthercita. Please mi amor take care of yourself. I'm afraid that they will hurt you. 
Marina: I will be fine. I will confront all the accusations. Because they are all lies. They are all lies because they want to stain our love. 
DamSacrifice: Leave me! Please leave me! Leave me. Talk with Señora Artigas and leave town please. I beg you. 
Marina: I'm not leaving your side. Nothing more terrible could happen to me than to be separated from you. I love you. I don't care what happens. I will always love you. Always. 

Awww. 

Enter Mariana Seoane as Ursula 
It is a beautiful day in R-Laydee. Urusula has arrived in town. She does the sexy walk along the plaza and swings her hips and strokes her hair. She catches the attention of the men in the plaza. The song Mermelada (sung by Mariana Seoane) plays in the background. I'll leave a link to the whole song below for those interested in listening to it. 

Another ruined meal
Fulgencio, Delfina, and Esteryuya are having breakfast. Fulgencio has ordered Valdivia to have the trial take place as soon as possible. He wants DamMurderer in prison as soon as possible. Delfina says that the way that DamFab was arrested was unjust. Fulgencio is pissed off and asks Delfina if she's now on the side of the man who murdered her daughter. Delfina doesn't believe that DamFab murderd Esthercita. Fulgencio doesn't understand what's wrong with Delfina - first she was crying over Esthercita's death and now that he has captured her murderer she is on his side. Delfina says that she knows DamFab and he wouldn't be capable of killing anyone. He's honest. Fulgencio wants to say something but Esteryuya interrupts. She says that there are alot of people out there pretending to be who they aren't (like you Esteryuya) and letting themselves be influenced by bad people. Delfina insists that someone else put the explosives. Fulgencio wants Delfina to quit defending DamFab. Where is that mothers pain? She says that her mothers pain is in her flesh and there isn't a moment where she does not cry over Esthercita's death. But not because of that will she blame an innocent man. Fuglencio says that DamMurderer is a murderer and he will lock him up. He complains that Delfina is always ruining his meals and gets up from the table and leaves. 

The big shocker! 
Marina doesn't want Bea to worry. She's sure that DamFab will get freed. The big shocker - Bea is also sure that DamFab will prove his innocence. Phone rings. Bea answers. It's Mercedes with a prayer request for Bea. Mercedes tells Bea that she found her daughter but she is sick and they have not given her much hope. Bea is impactada. 

Ursula is Fulgencio's niece
Fulgencio is happy to see Ursula and invites her in. Ursula wanted to surprise them. She is worried about her Aunt Delfina.

You can count on me 
Marina wants talk to Mercedes to let her know what is going on. Mercedes hearing Marina's voice doesn't think that now is the time to talk with Bea. She will call her later. Bea gives Marina the phone. Marina tells Mercedes that DamFab is in jail accused of having put the explosivs in the sailboat. Mercedes knows that it is all lie. Mercedes tells Marina that right now she can't come to town but she wants her to let DamFab know that he's not alone and that he can count on her support. Marina thanks Mercedes. Marina will give DamFab the message. Marina counts on Mercedes' help to free DamFab. Mercedes gives her word that everything will be resolved. Marina thanks Mercedes. She hangs up.

Surprise, surprise 
Fulgencio comes back to the breakfeast table with the surprise of Ursula's arrival. Delfina is overjoyed. Esteryuya not so much. 

Mexico City
Alicia brings Mercedes her rosary. Mercedes asks Alicia to contact the divers who investigated the explosion. She asks Alicia to ask the divers for their last report. It is urgent that she have it in her hands. Maldito Fulgencio! Algun dia te hare pagar por todo lo que has hecho. Tu y Ernesto Contreas van a pagar. (Damn you, Fulgencio. One day I will make you pay for all that you have done. You and Ernesto Contreas will pay) I'd add Hernan Saldaña to that list, Mercedes. 

Ick Alert 
Ernesto has arrived at home with EsterHada. He asks Blas (who I'll call Blah from now on) to take the luggage into his room. Blah does as told. Ernesto welcomes EsterHadda to her new home. He wants Macario of the bad wig to take EsterHada shopping. He knows that Macario of the bad wig can turn EsterHada into a queen. Although I wouldn't be sure of that. After all anyone who would wear a horrible wig like his must have really bad taste. Macario of the bad wig is happy to take EsterHada shopping. He leaves to unpack and says that after he finishes they will leave to go shopping. EsterHada asks Ernesto if he'll buy her more things and he says that he won't buy her more things. He'd buy the whole world if she asked. He'll give her whatever she asks. EsterHada is happy to hear this. She hugs him. Ernesto the perv kisses her cheek.  

Back in R-Laydee
We find out that Ursula is the daughter of Delfina's sis. Ursula's father has been having some health problems and thats why Delfina's sis couldn't be with Delfina when Esthercita died. Fulgencio and Delfina are overjoyed that Ursula has come for a visit. Fulgencio invites Ursula to sit at the table. Ursula says that she and Fulgencio have always gotten along really well. He comments on her having grown and become a beautiful woman. Ursula notices Esteryuya. She asks who she is and why she is dressing up like Esthercita. She uses the word Güerca [huerca] when referring to Esteryuya. I tried to find a defintion of the word but I couldn't find much about it. All I found out was that it refers to a woman and that it is a colloquial term that is used in the north side of Mexico. Anyway, Delfina says that Esteryuya is dressed up as Esthercita because she asked her to dress up like that to honor Esthercita. Ursula makes fun of Mayuya's name and says that Esteryuya doesn't look like Esthercita at all. Haven't you looked in the mirror? You look like a caricature of Esthercita. A caricature that you could laugh at, says Ursula to Mayuya. Oh snap! Looks like Esteryuya has met her match! 

What a good nights sleep does to you... 
Hernan wakes up cheerful but that doesn't stop him from being an ass to his employees. How could I not be happy if DamFab has spent his first of many nights in jail? He goes on to say - I don't have anyone to share this happiness with, Marina. Haha! 

These people have no life 
The town gosspiers are up bright and early to spew more venom. A mob of them including the town beyotch and Rosario follows Marina and Jose as they walk towards the car. Jose tells Marina to not pay any attention to them. Marina says that they can say whatever they want about her but it hurts her that DamFab went from being the nicest person in town to the most hated. Jose helps Marina get into the car and defends her from the town gosspiers. The town beyotch pounds on the window. Jose assures her that things will be resolved because he will prove DamInnocent's innocence. 

I almost feel bad for Hernan...NOT..I just can't forget how detestable he is. Nothing justifies the things that he has done.
Hernan looks at a family portrait of him and his parents. He gets emotional. He says that he was not allowed to enjoy his parents love because Ernesto killed them. He killed them like a coward. He promises to avenge his parents death. The day will come when he makes Ernesto disappear even if its the last thing that he does. He says that he doesn't even know where his parents are buried because Ernesto didn't even leave him that. I hate you, Ernesto. I hate you with all my soul. I will destroy you even if its the last thing that I do, says Hernan.

Mexico City 
Doc Gonzales gives Mercedes some hope about Magdis health. He says that they are hydrating and giving Magdis vitamins so she can start getting her strength back. Mercedes thanks Doc Gonzales. Her phone rings. He excuses himself and leaves. Bea is on the other end of the phone. Bea tells Mercedes that she is alone now and can talk. Mercedes thanks Bea for having returned the call. She tells Bea that she has found her daughter. She tells Bea that Magdia is sick but she is starting to get better. Bea is glad to hear that Magdis is getting better. Mercedes says that her hope is growing and she can't stop thanking God and La Virgencita. Bea tells Mercedes that she can count on her. Bea's health may not be good but she will always be there if Mercedes wants to pour her heart out. Mercedes says that she knows. They are both mothers and they have suffered because of their daughters. Mercedes asks Bea to take care of Marina. Mercedes tells Bea to be careful with Hernan. Mercedes can't say why though. Bea is impactada! Let's hope this doesn't go in through one ear and out the other for Bea. 

Hernan is like Oprah. He's everywhere. 
Hernan arrives at the police station. He greets Marina and kisses her on the cheek. Why is Marina letting him do this? He says that he came as soon as he heard. She thanks him. Again why are you doing this, Marina? She says that he never liked DamFab and what is his interest in wanting to help him. He says none I came here for you. Jose tells Hernan that if he doesn't care about DamFab to go and talk with Marina somewhere else. What is more important there is DamFab's situation. Hernan asks Jose with what right does he talk to him like that. Jose says I'm DamFab's lawyer and that gives me all the rights. Hernan laughs and says that he only came to help. Hernan tells Jose not to take things the wrong way and says that Jose is the attorney and has the last word. He smiles that evil smile of his and thoughtbubbles that soon it will be the last word that Jose pronouces. Marina thanks Hernan. Stop thanking him, Marina! Marina says that she doesn't think it is prudent of him to be there and to intervene with things having to do with DamFab. Hernan says ok fine then I'll leave. I'll take care of things at the packing plant. He kisses her on the cheek and again Marina lets him. Why? Hernan leaves. 

Esteryuya has met her match
Ursula doesn't waste any time and takes over Esthercita's room. She advises Esteryuya to quit being so ridiculous and stop dressing up like her cousin. She wants Esteryuya to go back home. Esteryuya says that she's nobody to tell her what to do. Ursula tells her that she will show her who she is and she bitch slaps Esteryuya. 

Team DamFab
The crew, Candy, Rebeca, and Olinto have gathered at La Guacamaya. They will find the evidence needed to prove his innocence. How? Well they will put their heads together by remebering everything that happened before, during, and after the wedding. They can also find witnesses that can back up what they are saying.

Our two lovebirds 
Marina visits DamFab in jail. She wishes that she could be with him and show him how much she loves him. He thinks that perhaps this is how they should be - separated and pretend like they have never met. He says that it has been a lot of harm that he has caushed her. He loves her so much but he has always harmed her. She tells her not to say that. A love so big like ours can't hurt anyone, says Marina. I wish I could believe it is like that but you have already suffered a lot because of me and right now you have the pain of seeing me here, says DamFab. Marina tells him that he's not responsible for anything. He says that he has only brought problems for her. You don't deserve to suffer thats why you should be far away from me, says DamFab. Marina gets pissed off and tells him to quit saying that. Don't torment me with that anymore, she says. What you are asking me is to take my life away because you are everything for me, she says. She tells him that he is the DamAir that she nees to breathe. She asks him to understand that. He tells her that she is the one that has to understand. He cries and says that he doesn't want to see her suffer. He is willing to do anything to not see her suffer. If you don't want to see me suffering then don't ask me to leave you, she says. They kiss. 

Ursula is Trouble with a Capital T 
Esteryuya wants Fulgencio to kick Ursula out or else she'll close her door to him. Who do you think you are? If I let you get to where you are it because I was having fun with you, he says. He could care less if she leaves. Esteryuya calls him Fulgencio and he asks to be called Don Fulgencio from now on. She takes off her wig (wait a minute? didn't she have her hair dyed the color of Esthercita's hair) and says that she's not only thinking of herself. She is thinking about both of them. She plants a big old smooch on Fulgencio. Urusula happens to be coming into the room and sees the smooch. She immediately whips out her Iphone and snaps three pics of the smooch because you know one just isn't enough. Wow! This girl is Trouble with a Capital T.

Ursula: 1 - Mayuya: 0 
Esteryuya returns to "her room" sure that she has defeated Ursula. Ursula shows Esteryuya who the real winner is by showing Esteryuya the pics she took of her smooching Fulgencio. Now either Esteryuya leaves or Urusula will show Delfina the pics. Esteryuya is trapped. 

Look me into the eyes.... 
Delfina visits DamFab. She has him look her in the eyes and swear that he had nothing to do with Esthercita's death. DamFab swears that he didn't kill Esthercita. Delfina believes him. She knows that he is a good man. He says that the explosion was a surprise for both him and Esthercita. If he had planned the explosion then he would have done something so he could have come out unharmed. If she still has doubts when he gets out of there he can take her to see the people that took care of him. Delfina says that she has no choice but to accept her daughter's death. She thanks him and hopes he can resolve this problem. DamFab tells Delfina that his Madrina who can see all feels that Esthercita is alive. Delfina is impactada! 

I'm not wearing clothes you have worn but yes give me the jewlery 
Esteryuya has given Ursula all the info she needs. Ursula wants Esteryuya to do two things if she wants to continue enjoying the privileges that her aunt and uncle give her - First, she'll have to quit dressing up like Esthercita because Esteryuya is a cheap copy. Ha! Second, she will have to leave Casa Salazar because there is no room for her there. Oh, and Ursula wants Esthercita's jewlery. Esteryuya can keep Esthercita's clothes because well Ursula isn't about to contanimate herself wearing clothes worn by Esteryuya. Esteryuya doesn't think that Fulgencio will let her leave. Dream on, girl! Ursula thinks otherwise. After all she has those incriminating pics in her cell phone. Ursula mentions that her cell phone has a password so Esteryuya can't erase the pics. But what stops Esteryuya from destroying the phone? Anyway, as long as Esteryuya can prove to her loyalty to Ursula then she will have all the money she needs. Esteryuya asks how can I do that? Ursula will tell her how later. 

Team DamFab: Part II 
At La Guacamaya, the crew have written stuff down on paper. I guess what they have written down are the things that they remember from before, during, and after the wedding. Apparantly, this will help prove DamFab's innocence. Lolo has finished and says that he's the most intelligent. Aside from writing what he remembers he has doddled a pic of Esthercita as a witch. Candy takes the paper away from the crew and says that she wants to go to the police station to see DamFab. She hopes that they will let her see him. Oso, Bagre, and Lagarto argue over who will accompany her. Candy wants Lolo to accompany her because he makes her laugh even during this whole situation. She tells the rest of the crew to stop behaving like children. 

These people need to get a life 
Outside the police station, once again there is angry mob. The town beyotch says that the trial will begin tomorrow. More badmouthing of Marina. One of the townspeople even says that they should lynch Marina. DamFab hears all of this from his cell. He thoughtbubbles that even if it hurts him he has to accept that Marina is not for him. He wouldn't want to leave her side but they can't be together. He asks his dad to tell him how to prevent Marina from being harmed because of him. DamFab says that he has to save Marina. At whatever cost he has to save her. I'm sorry if I hurt you but do I what I do it is in the name of this love, says DamSacrifice. 

Avances: Mayuya throws a rock at Marina and it hits her on the head, DamSacrifice says that he has to give up on Marina, he later asks Marina to leave. 

As promised you can listen to Mermelada here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29NBIK22xLc

Comments:
Mauricio, good morning and thank you for the way funny recap. Your comments about Hernan are a scream. I especially liked "Hernan is like Oprah. He's everywhere" and your wisecrack about his smelly feet. Well he doesn't wear socks, need I say more?

I laughed out loud when Mayuya whipped off her wig. Que? Yes she did have her hair cut and dyed. Hmmm, the continuity people screwed that one up.

DamSacrifice, sigh. I was really hoping the story wouldn't go there. I fear DamPractical is going to go the way of the typical telenovela galán and become a DamLiar to "save" his love.

OK, I absolutely adore Daniela Romo, but that little scene she threw at the hospital where the doc had to physically push her out the door...give it a rest lady. It looked like the security guys didn't quite know what to do with her.

Thanks for the great recap and the link. Wow, Mariana Seoane can really move it. Watch out Mayuya, there's a new girl in town.
 

Great recap Mauricio.

I'd say Mayuya has more than met her match. Loved all of Ursula's honest put downs of Esteryuya. Looks like she's going to be way more badass than Ester could ever hope to be. Trouble has definitely sashayed into town. And didn't seem that Fully was just a bit too happy to see his sexy niece?

The continuity people may have messed up on the real hair/wig thing, but they finally got Magda's nails right. Instead of Marina's perfect manicure, they finally had some long, yellow, grubby looking press-ons on the actress. Good job makeup department!

Excellent recap Mauricio. You captured the spiraling out of control emotions that pervaded this episode perfectly.

"She's alive! She's alive!", "Macario of the bad wig" and "Although I wouldn't be sure of that. After all anyone who would wear a horrible wig like his must have really bad taste" were fantastic.

"The town gosspiers are up bright and early to spew more venom..." Yes, and without the rage and urging of Esteryuya either. The crowd was whipped into a frenzy all on their own!

Delfina is really a good person and sees the truth for what it is. I wish she were less whiny but losing Ester seems to have helped her to stiffen her spine and stand up to Fulgencio. Glad she does her harping at meal times so he cannot enjoy himself!

Ernesto makes my skin crawl. Truly cringeworthy. Poor Ester...

Sylvia, yes, Mariana Seonane is something (I've not seen her before). She already has blackmailed Mayuya and it's only ben a New York minute. Wonder what she has planned for after lunch?;)

I also hoped DamSacrifice (good one Sylvia) wouldn't cave either. But the angry mob was out of control and it does appear Marina is in harm's way. Let's hope Jose is able to pull off a miracle or that Ester and the odious Ernesto make an appearance soon.

Diana
 

I meant Ursuala way more badass than Mayuya could ever hope to be. But also, if Mayuya thought it was hard to be Ester's frienemy, she's learning that it's harder to be Ursula's b*tch.


 

Vivi, our comments crossed.

"And didn't seem that Fully was just a bit too happy to see his sexy niece?" Yes! I couldn't quite gauge his reaction. It was tinged with something not quite appropriate - slightly lascivious? Good call.

Diana

 

Vivi and Diana, ITA about Fully being a tad overexcited about Ursula's appearance. She's clearly going to milk it.
 

Wow Mauricio...thanks for getting this up so early. You had me laughing all the way through (like Lolo!)

"pseudo cops"

"town gossipers are up bright and early"

"Hernan is like Oprah. He's everywhere."

and my favorite:

"he's the DamAir she needs to breathe".

Just a treat from start to finish. Haven't seen this yet but really looking forward to seeing Ursula operate. And thanks for the link to the song as well.
 

What a thorough and humorous recap, Mauricio. Thank you. Great job!!
I loved the score count for Ursula and Mayuya and the Ick alert. I can't stomach watching Ernesto with Pester.
I'm glad that Mayuya has met her match.
Rosario needs to knocked off of her high horse. Those old gossipers don't realize how ridiculous they sound. Marina is responsible for Esther's blood, where's the body. It's too bad they don't have the time or the capacity to think.
 

Thanks everyone for your comments. I am glad to hear that you all enjoyed the recap.

Yes. Fully was a little too excited to his see his sexy niece at his doorstep.

Ursula did not waste anytime to cause trouble. Esteryuya was sure not expecting anyone to come and take over. Serves her right for all that she has done.

Not liking where things are going with DamSacrifice and Marina but I do understand his reasons for wanting to push Marina away. He is worried that the townspeople could harm her and he wouldn't be able to do anything to defend her since he is locked up. He feels that by them separating and she leaving town then she will be safe.
 

Mauricio:

Fabulous, marvelous recap. I am still laughing about Herny's smelly feet, lol.

Now that Ursula is in town, I think Fully will have another ally. They are a lot alike I think. I am sure they will be up to no good at some point. I am glad Ursula slapped the crap out of Maycucu. I wasn't surprised by Maycucu pulling off a wig, that hair just never looked right.

I agree with you Diana about Delfina. She is a really nice caring woman who believes the truth when she hears it. She always knew that DamContrite never married Pester for love. The only love/obsession was on Pester's side.

I wish someone would out that Laz is Fully's son. Rosy would have to shut up then. I wonder how she explained having a child out of wedlock? I guess her spewing all that venom, the chismosos tend to overlook her "sin". And to pick on Madre Eusebia, for shame!

Makes me wonder what century we are in. Marina has "cursed" the town, brought "bad luck", has swayed and bedazzled DamSpellbound, she turned him into a "murderer" really! Is this like the Salem Witch Trials?

I am glad that Mercy has finally found Mags, I hope Mags stays long enough to get well. She likes to run, hopefully she will stay and get to know Mercy and what happened when she was a baby.

I too wonder why Marina is foreva letting Herny into her personal space and why she doesn't think it is odd that he is always knowing where she is. And the kissing. She was quite short with him, but polite. He really thinks he has won already. I can't stand him!!!!

Don't get me started on pervy ernie. I feel so bad for Hada/Ester and the walls of that house, so dark! She looked around and didn't like what she saw. I want her to be free!
 

Madelaine: Liked your thought that Fully and Ursula are a lot alike. Cut from the same rough hewed cloth, so to speak.

My heart has really gone out to Ester. Having to stand the sight (and touch) of Ernesto is horrifying enough but to have Macario as the only other person she can speak with is intolerable, inhumane cruelty.

Diana
 

Thanks for this excellent recap, Mauricio, well done.

Welcome to Ursula. I wonder if there will be more applicants to fill the position left open by Estercita's demise?

Carlos

 

Great Recap Mauricio, my favorite line: "he's the DamAir she needs to breathe." If he's the DamAir that we all breathe, the world would be a better place.

karma came for Mayuya in the form of trouble with a capital T. Loved the scenes where she b*tch slapped her and made fun of her. Mayuya deserved that. I sense Ursula will fall for Damian too, which would be more bad news for Marina. I agree that I felt there was something inappropriate about Fully and Ursula, especially the comment he made about her being a grown woman now.

I almost felt bad for Hernan when he talked about his parents. He had so much potential to be the good guy because he could have pretended to be the bad guy, but it turns out he was an undercover fbi to take revenge on Ernesto and he could have ended up with Magdalena.


 

Ay yi yi..don't throw tomatoes at me but Pestercita doesn't look particularly miserable with Ernesto. She seems content to be adored, spoiled and given lots of gifts.

She has amnesia but not a lobotomy. Still, we never see her cringing in revulsion. We're all appalled but she doesn't seem to be.

And it's kind of fun to see wicked old Ernesto ga-ga head over heels about a woman. I think his infatuation is what is going to lead to mistakes and his ultimate demise.68 Frankly, I'm enjoying this karma part of the story.
 

Great Recap, Mauricio!

Loved when you translated Dam's "I'll kill you!" line and you said "Not really a smart thing to say, DamFab. You are being accused of murder after all!" HAHAHA

"Frees Willy, err, I mean DamFab" Perfect!

And, as everyone said "Herny's like Oprah, he's everywhere!"

I am so with you on Marina's consistently upbeat reaction to Hernan. For crying out loud. If she's so loyal to DamFab, how 'bout starting by shutting out his DamArchEnemy!!! The best we get is a frosty tone or a SLIGHT scolding. I want her to be all "Get out of my sight, you creeper!" But I guess that's saved for ultimas semanas. :(

I love your attention to detail. I knew something was off when Mayuya pulled off her wig but it wasn't til you pointed it out that I remembered the makeover scene.

And ITA, Sylvia, about loving Romo but thinking these meltdowns in the hospital and the sewer are a bit over the top. Mercy is a smart, savvy business woman. I would think she would be better in a crisis.

Thanks again, Mauricio and thanks for the link to the video.

Mermelada is a great song and la Malquerida, which Mariana Seoane sang in PESE is even better. Great music and great moves.
 

Mauricio:

Thanks so much for the link. Mariane Seoane rocks. I remember her song, as Judy did, from PESE. She was in the running for Perfume de Gardenia I believe at one time. She is multi-talented and always plays a bad/good girl. Not totally bad, but not so good either. She was redeemed in PESE, and in Mar de Amor. These are the only TNs I have ever seen her in.
 

What a great recap. I loved "beotch" of the town and her second in command, Rosario. The bad wig!

Thank you for the song Mauricio.

Ester suffers from two distinct ailments, PTSD from being nearly drowned and some type of traumatic brain injury, which resulted in amnesia. There might be a temporary personality change, more subdued, passive, and she is still being confused and scared.

PervErny offers her security and promises to keep her safe. So she clings to him willingly. Ester is young; she will recover from trauma and will regain her spunky self back. I hope.

DamLockedUp does not use his brain. At all. He is all emotions. I guess, more crying and noble idiocy will ensure in the future. :(
 

Mauricio - Fantastic recap. My favorites:

"(... If you hurt her I swear I'll kill you. I swear) Not really a smart thing to say, DamFab. You are being accused of murder after all."

"Frees Willy"

"Ursula: 1 - Mayuya: 0"

Loved Ursula's b*tch slap of Maycucu and all her insults. Yippee! But I'm wondering if Ursula's going to have a yen for Dam, or for José.

Can't blame DamSacrifice [great one, Mauricio] for wanting Marina to flee. Dam's been a pillar of the community and they let a nut like Maycucu whip them into a near-lynch mob? I say Marina leave town and see if you can skype Dam.

When Ernesto handed the pills to Estercita, it looked like a slew of them, not just one or two. I think she stays heavily medicated. I can feel the nerfazos coming my way, but Ernesto does have some – Ick Alert! [Thanks, Madelaine] – style. I’ve seen the actor Manuel Ojeda in several TNs, always a baddie, but this is the most suave I’ve seen him. When he held the mafia-style meeting a few episodes ago, he was nicely dressed, not in tacky mafia-knockoffs of the 1980s.

 

Niece, yesterday I said this:

"... Ernesto has a sinister charm..."

I don't feel a lot of warmth toward him, but I much prefer his style to that of Hernán.

Mauricio -Very funny and complete recap ... Favorite line was already mentioned ..

... If you hurt her I swear I'll kill you. I swear) Not really a smart thing to say, DamFab. You are being accused of murder after all...

Last night, WL didn't look like even he believed the lines he was delivering in jail to Marina... :/

Ursula, the witch of the sea, eh? More plays on the sea mythology characters. LOL
 

Carlos, Yes, that's it! - "sinister charm"
 

Mauricio thanks for the great recap. I enjoyed all of your Dam words as well as your comments on Herny & outrageous Ernie.

Add me to the list of those who thought Fully look way too leechy at his niece.
 

Given the way the crew members were fighting to see who gets to hang out with Candy, it seems they all have a crush on her. But sweet funny man Lolo wins out. Good for him! I have been meaning to ask about Lolo's accent. It's very distinct. Is it a Jarocho accent, or is he meant to be from somewhere else?
 

His accent sounds Spanish to me.
 

Judy- It sounds Spanish to me too. But it makes me wonder if Lolo is supposed to be a Spaniard, and if so, how did he join this crew?
 

Mauricio, I really enjoyed reading your recap!

Looks like we have a real bad-a** in town! EsterHada and Macucu are in the minor leaguess.

We'll have to go through the "I love you so much, go away" phase of the novela. Yuck.

Looking forward to seeing how Bea reacts to the warning of Herny. Too much over-acting for me. Mercedes, Rosario, Damian - almost everyone, except for steady, strong Jose.

Marea Primavera
 

Marea Primavera, ITA about Jose. Thank goodness for his level head.

I always assumed Lolo was Spanish, but I'm not very good with accents.

Mena, I forgot Ursula was the witch of the sea! Good catch there.

Carlos, I thought your description of Ernesto, a sinister charm, was spot on.
 

1.) The sailors, of course, try and re-enact the same scene from when Damian was jailed for rape. But it doesn't work this time. 2.) It was a well-done scene with Hernan and his parents' picture. No music - did you notice? That was to make sure we knew it was REALLY serious. 3.) Maybe now that Damian is in jail, Hernan's evil angst needs a new target, so he's focusing on Ernesto with new intensity. That energy has to go somewhere! 4.) Why is Damian being so weak and pushing Marina away? It's driving me nuts. 5.) I'm not discounting Mayuya yet!!! She could plot and scheme and overthrow Ursula while Ursula thinks that Mayuya is under her thumb. I haven't marked Mayuya as defeated. 6.) LOLO IS SPANISH. When the empacadora burned, he mentioned a fire he had experienced in Spain. AND you can totally pick out his Spanish accent in the episode where Lazaro approaches him to apologize and then asks Lolo to teach him how to shoot. Lolo uses a lot of Spanish slang, too.
