♥ Mi Corazón es Tuyo ♥ Lunes 2/16/15 ♥ #149 ♥
Capitulo
149: The Beginning of the End OR The World According to Zerobela
Chicago
Club: Hissabruja sat at a
table in her ridiculous drag gloating to her imaginary audience how
she will out Ana as the slut she hopes she is.
“How
did that waitress not see that the fake mustache is not only fake,
but on crooked?” asked Hera. “It's so obvious.”
“You
know what, Madrastra?” said Hermes. “I'll bet that disguises
aren't that unusual at a place like that. Imagine all the men who
wouldn't want it known that they go there.”
“I
guess I understand that. Why wouldn't they be ashamed to look
lustfully at women they're not married or engaged to?” Hera was
not amused.
Margarita's
Apartment: León tried to
reach Fanny but didn't get an answer. Reina was making coffee while
talking about Laura. She finally asked León how he could possibly
forget Fanny when she is the love of his life.
Lascuráin
Mansion: In her bedroom, Fanny
looked at the birthday present from León, still wrapped as he had
brought it. She finally opened it and looked at the drawing, putting
it face down on the desk and sighing, thinking that the pain would
have to go away little by little.
In
the kitchen Ana was brewing tea for herself and Fernando. She told
him she doubted that Fanny loved Lenin no matter how interesting she
found him intellectually. She was convinced that Fanny still loved
León. They agreed that looking to the heart in this situation was
the right thing.
Chicago
Club: Dana and the other
chorus girls were dancing on the stage while Hissabela sarcastically
gloated about how Fernando won't like that his beloved Ana deceived
him about this all this time.
“Can't
we do anything about this now?” asked Apollo. “This is not going
to end well.”
“I
know, Dad,” said Eros. “We can only hope my arrows are as potent
as usual.”
Lascuráin
Mansion: Ana had finished
talking to Yolanda and asked Fernando if he could think of a reason
why La Tarantula would go out in male disguise. He found that
curious.
Chicago
Club: As she served the
ordered martini, the dark-haired waitress asked La Tarantula whom she
was talking to across the room. Hissabruja waved her off with a
cryptic comment and picked up the drink.
The
Following Morning
Lascuráin
Mansion: The friend who helped
Ana with Nando's makeover came over with clothes for Ana to shop for
for her trip to the beach. Ana balked at the idea of a bikini,
telling Fanny “Your dad is very conservative,” which caused Fanny
to pick up a strapless one-piece for her inspection. Ana picked up a
couple of things to try on. Fanny then asked in a slightly
roundabout way whether they were planning to vo-de-oh-doh-doh and Ana
tried to evade that one. Fanny tried to get her to look at more
stuff, but Ana told her they'd only be away for two days.
“Since
when is it appropriate for young adults to ask about their parents'
sex lives?” asked Hera. “Was I somehow unconscious for two
millennia?”
“No.
But this seems to be an exceptional case,” said Aphrodite.
“Remember that this road has gone the other direction before.”
“With
the appropriate discomfort on the father's part; yes, I remember.
But this is a new one for me.”
La
Costeña: Fernando was looking
at his computer screen as Beatriz started talking about his travel
plans. She had booked him into the best suite at the best hotel and
went over to his side of the desk to help him book the flight online.
Lascuráin
Mansion: Fanny and Ana had two
full shopping bags in front of them and Fanny commented on what
awesome stuff they bought. Ana was getting nervous because she still
hadn't fessed up to the Chicago issue. Fanny told her not to worry
about it, that she and Fernando would be so happy together and that
she was such a great thing in their lives, etc.
That
evening Ana entered the library where Fernando was at his desk, as
usual. She told him she had to go out for a little while to see
Jennifer and Johnny. He offered to drive her, but she said she would
take a cab. He was going over the final details of their trip and
she was getting impatient. She told him she wanted to pay part of
the bill but he would not hear of it. Te amos and besos, por
supuesto. Fernando asked if Johnny was having problems because he
was a good fellow and he wanted to help, if necessary. Ana told him
“You are the best man in the world,” kissed him, and said there
were no problems. She left.
Car:
Hissabela – again in her
disguise – ranted and tantrummed behind the wheel of her car about
how Fernando would be proposing to “that fifth-rate servant” at
the beach.
“Isabela,
give it a rest,” said Athena. “You went to Harvard. You studied
economics. Surely you know when something was a poor investment.”
“There's
nothing logical about this, dear sister,” said Aphrodite.
“I
guess not, but whose fault is that?”
“Oh,
not mine. In my book women who do what she does aren't deserving of
a Felices Para Siempre.”
Chicago
Club: In Gordofeo's office his
two henchmen held Dana up so her feet didn't touch the floor. Ana
yelled at him to stop this and he had them put Dana on the floor. He
then threatened violence, grabbing Dana's head in the crook of his
arm and grabbing her nose with the other hand. Ana pretended not to
care, saying that Dana did what she did because she hated him, not to
help her. She calmly began “dialing” her lawyer on her cell
phone as she spoke of her contract and Gordofeo's silence. He
released Dana, then ordered his henchmen to unhand her.
In
the dressing room Ana was putting on makeup and Dana entered, which
gave Ana the chance to tell her she was putting on an act in the
office. She expressed her gratitude profusely and told Dana to run
for it.
Lascuráin
Mansion: Fernando was a little
nervous about the upcoming trip. Nando and Fanny teased him about it
with Nando saying he looked as nervous “as I was the first time I
went to Ximena's house.”
“Does
anyone else think this is a little inappropriate?” said Athena. “I
mean, Nando is only 17 years old.”
“I
agree, but at least they're not expecting their father to be celibate
for the rest of his life. That would be horribly selfish. It's been
almost two years since their mother died. And she approves of Ana,”
said Aphrodite.
Chicago
Club: Lazaro, the MC, got on
stage with the mike and announced Ana. The audience applauded; even
the fake Charlie Chaplin did so with a disgusted expression.
Lascuráin
Mansion: Nando and Fanny tried
to reassure their dad that everything would be OK. At his question
she said that Ana was as nervous or more than he was.
Chicago
Club: The waitress approached
Zerobela to explain that the boss didn't like customers shooting
videos. She asked why and the waitress said something about the boss
wanted to reserve that right for the establishment. She said to put
the cell phone away.
“Do
something, Hermes. Please do something!” said Esefania. “I
don't want this harpy to win.”
“No
te preocupes, dear Estefania,” he said. “She won't. No matter
what happens in the next few weeks.”
Lascuráin
Mansion: Nando and Fanny
continued to tease their dad.
Chicago
Club: The music ended and Ana
turned and exited to the usual applause. Some of the men –
including Lazaro – threw roses on the stage. Zerobela got up,
gloating that Ana is arriving at her own tomb.
In
the dressing room Ana drank some water; she had already changed out
of that absurd costume. She answered her cell phone and it was
Fernando, wanting to talk about the trip the next day. Lazaro came
back, talking. Fernando heard the voice and Ana said that was Johnny,
then quickly covered the mike on the phone. She ended the call
within another minute and asked Lazaro to get the waitress to come
back. He hurried out to the bar.
Zerobela
was watching the video on her cell phone and gloating at the misery
it would cause when she would send it the next day. She then left
some money on the table and walked out.
The
waitress came back to the dressing room and Ana asked about the
strange man with the weird mustache. The waitress said that he had
been there the day before asking for her.
The Next Day
Beachfront:
Some beautiful resort view of sea, flowers, birdies, and tropical
drinks before Ana and Fernando arrived. They walked through the
lobby and were greeted by the day manager. Ana kept walking to the
other door to the veranda with the view of palm trees and the sea,
which she had never seen (really?).
Bruja
Central: Zerobela gloated yet again at watching the video she shot
on her cell phone, going on about “nananaca” and what a jewel
this video would be. She laughed as she watched Ana slide head-first
down the pole.
Lascuráin
Mansion: Four guards were at the front of the mansion keeping watch.
The kids were eating breakfast while Zeus flirted with Manuela in
the kitchen. The doorbell rang and Manuela told him to answer it.
Beachfront:
The hotel manager came out onto the sand calling for Fernando. Ana
yelled at him not to yell at them, but he was there merely to tell
Fernando that their room was ready. Ana was momentarily embarrassed
as Fernando thanked the fellow, who then went back in. Ana then
began flirtatiously talking about all the firsts of this trip and
Fernando said something about hoping she will like the room.
“Tengo
un mal presentimiento,” said Apollo.
“Yo
tambien,” said Aphrodite. “You got any great ideas about what to
do?”
“Unless
Yolanda somehow gets that cell phone away from her nasty daughter,
no.”
Lascuráin
Mansion: Laura arrived and had
demanded to see Fanny. The guards asked whether she was a friend of
Fanny's and she said “Yes. Do I have to say it again?” She
looked at them as though she were a queen looking down on a peasant
who hadn't bathed since the high Middle Ages and demanded to know how
long they had been there.
In
the playroom the kids were looking at online photos of the hotel when
Bruno came up to tell Fanny that Laura was there waiting to see her.
Fanny wasn't in the mood for this but said she would be down shortly.
Hotel:
The Imperial Suite was
incredible, larger than many people's homes. Ana went over to the
glass doors to the veranda, then came back. She was still marveling
at the size of the suite and suggested Fernando choose where they
were going to go. Both looked happy.
“I
see her taste in clothes has improved,” said Aphrodite.
“Yes;
that suits her well,” said Hera. “If she is half the wife
Estefania thinks she will be we should welcome her here someday.”
“But
how would that work? Would you have Fernando caught between two
women? Do you even remotely think that they would be willing to
share him?”
“Good
point. But we have some time to consider what to do.”
Lascuráin
Mansion: Laura and her
attitude waited for Fanny in the parlour. Fanny came down slowly,
asking what she was there for. Laura said she was there to tell her
“León is mine,”
Hotel:
Ana and Fernando were on the veranda with its view of the sea,
chaise lounges, hot tub, and glass safety wall.

Great recap! (How far ahead are you in order to pop these out so quick?)
I was wondering whether Ana and Fer would sleep together before finding out Ana's secret. Looks like they do.

Urban, fantastic recap and screencaps. Thank you! How I am going to miss our Olympian commentators when this is over!
So, Fanny had to put a blue hat on her head to fo down and talk to Laura (?????). She needs some new friends.
Loved Isabella explaining to the waitress that she was just talking to "her secret friends" (us, I guess, in her asides) when the waitress asked who she was talking to because there clearly was nobody there. Later, her Ana impression was a hoot.
Sadly, Ana happilly took Fanny's advice and put telling Fernando the truth on the back burner again. With the info about Isabella and her disguise she got from Yolanda and her experience at the club, she must know that her time is growing short. The you know what has to hit the fan soon. Hope it does not happen on the vacation.

Linda Tightbun went to NYC to marry an elderly millionaire. She is already a 2x widow and based on Enfrique's reaction she must be a Black Widow.
I think Ana and Fernando will get it on during this weekend at the beach if the video doesn't hit his cell phone when Isabully is planning on it. If Ana and Fernando finally do the long-overdue deed I am betting she gets pregnant on the first try, the video hits, there is a blow-up, and she finds out she's pregnant during The Separation.
There is also the possibility that Yolanda will stop this or Ana will answer Fernando's cell phone, but those are long shots.

Urban, yes, the first time sex=instant pregnancy would not surprise me.

Ok, I admit it, I was flipping the remote during the show last night more than I watched so your recap was especially welcome and fantastic to boot!!
I had almost hoped this whole weekend away wouldn't happen, but by TN Law No. 22, subsection A, before any Ultimates break of the couple, there must be an especially romantic interlude. Tried to watch it, but Ana's screeching and childlike behavior is starting to make me itchy-fingered with the remote. (Hearing the manager's voice reaction was a tad over the top.)This also almost guarantees Fer's reaction will be especially bad so we have the total freefall.
Did not like supposition by Ana and Fer that Fanny's love for Leon trumps all. So you don't pay attention to your warning signs, the fact the person has behavioral tendencies that should not be glossed over (tempers, violent outburst, dis-respect, etc.)...do NOT preach love conquers all when you show either the male or female as individuals with those type issues. Fanny has told Ana about her worries on that, so Ana buying into that is especially concerning. A little chat with someone doesn't make that go away.
UA and Jarifa, can I just say how wrong I hope you are about a pregnancy plot? But you're probably on to something--what a tired cliché with the one-time = pregnancy. Thought we took care of that with Isa.
So we can count on the video hitting Fer before Ana EVER says anything (or if she ever was going to). All signs point to Isa getting her revenge. Expect Fer to pull a Leon--you know, that's why they push the guy--the writers are trying to paint him as an early Fer? Ah, just no!
Anyway, so we figure Ana gets his wrath, but who else when it hits the fan who all knew? Nico and Diego better stay away from home if they know what's good for them.
What was in the freaking box?
And all the while Eeky is lurking.

Will Caray bloggers be recapping the new series La Sombra del Posado?
It started last night on Univision and haven't seen any mention of it.
It started last night on Univision and haven't seen any mention of it.
Excellent UA.
"“Does anyone else think this is a little inappropriate?” said Athena. “I mean, Nando is only 17 years old.” Fernando acts like a 17 year old so guess the conversation was age appropriate between bros.
It bugs the dodo out of me Ana so easily lies to Fernando. Last night he is so hopeful and nervous in anticipation and Ana working the pole and lying and she still owes Doroteo another night. It looks so much like she is playing a naive rich guy and while I know she is sincere when she tells him she loves him, I have to force myself to believe.
When Ana had the flashs before the wish, we didn't get to hear, I couldn't help thinking she was sorry to see that part of her life end, not a wish for a different future. Fernando's was about the future, Ana's the past.
Though Isabela may be the messenger she is not the cause of what will happen to Fernando. Ana, Juan, Jenny, Soledad, Nic, Diego and Fanny are.

I don't think she will be sorry it's ending because marrying Fernando will give her a new beginning. I'm sure dancing the tango with him would be more meaningful than having to zone out while dancing in front of pervs.
And if she gets pregnant within the next three episodes per my prediction, she won't be able to do the pole. I'm still peeved that Johnny thinks she will teach at his facility and promised it before discussing it with her.

Screeching, hillbilly, eight year-old mentallity, obnoxious, uncouth, like fingernails on a chalkboard. Fernando is successful, handsome, kind, educated, well traveled. Run Fernando run. Analier is so annoying and obby-noxious I am dying for her to get caught. If her screeching is nerve wracking now, do not want to hear it after her secret is being digested.
Ole Laura is frippin nervy isn't she.? First Leon's boss now Fanny and both on THEIR turf. I suppose Laura will not be welcome at Fanny's anymore.. Ironically, this was after Leon sent L packing. Wonder if she is getting a Freaky anvil.

You have to wonder if Fernando is being painted as Mr. Conservative if the writers will have him go ballistic because Ana is a provocative pole dancer, and not because she kept the secret (though that won't help). If they do that, then how do they deal with changing his attitude with so few episodes to go--Fast Forward? Or are we getting the quick temper Fer and then we deal with multiple episodes of people talking him down. Frankly, he will have a point on the secret keeping.
I was thinking of the context of these two if this was real life: President and Chairman of the Board of a major manufacturing company, and his fiance turns out to be a pole dancer in a sleazy entertainment bar. Can you see the newspapers and tabloids? What the heck will that do to the kids at school in real life?
So what I just hate about this whole plot line is the damage to the little ones. Even that poor Isaless child has been nurtured and raised by Ana more than anyone. Seeing Luz crushed again...sorry. That's just heartless. Sometimes I wonder if Osorio loves to put kids in danger, overly sad situations to tug at his viewers in the ultimates. It's PEAM all over again--and then they miraculously bounce back, no harm done, as the lovebirds wrap things up at the end.
I'm sticking to the end, but remind me if I ever show up on the boards for an Osorio comedy to back away slowly from the laptop and TV.

UrbanA: Great convo's between the Greek gods once again:
“Does anyone else think this is a little inappropriate?” said Athena. “I mean, Nando is only 17 years old.” --ITSA
Also got a great laugh at this:
"She looked at them as though she were a queen looking down on a peasant who hadn't bathed since the high Middle Ages"

Daisynjay, I am inclined to agree.
Children-in-jeop might make for ratings but it is in questionable taste. Although Fernando's kids are in much worse danger from Enfrique than from Gordofeo.
What I'd love to see happen is for Ana to get away with the lie and Gordofeo get what's coming to him. That does run against the tide, but there have been past incidences of villains being punished for only 2/3rds of their crimes. It should balance things out to have a protagonist able to hide an egregious mistake.
Osorio has an uneven track record with dramas, but one in particular includes serious emotional child abuse: Mi Pecado. What Rosario did to Lucrezia in that series was unforgiveable.
Laura has no excuse for her behavior. Ximena has a brain chemical issue solvable by meds; Laura just likes to play games. Fanny will have no further use for her after this last scene because she knows this.
What were the avances shown here?

Urban, the avances show Fernando and Ana having a romantic night together, Isabella reviewing the Ana video saying how she'd like to be there when Fernando sees it, and Isabella holding her baby asking what will Fernando do when he finds out Ana is a pole dancer in a low class club.

What has been mystifying me for a little while is how men in such a paternalistic culture would find pole dancing erotic when
-- it requires considerable upper-body strength to do
-- the women aren't naked or even topless.
Ana has been well--qualified to teach this for fitness for a long time. It has to have been a lack of confidence that kept her from escaping from Gordofeo before the curtain came up on this tale.

Jarifa, I think the last line of the previews Hisabella said what will Fer do when Luz finds out Ana is a dancer in a )*)* club.
UA, ITA with your take on Ana not missing the pole dancing at all if she gets her dreams to come true and she can dance the night away with Fernando anytime she wants. Besides, between having babies, she can practice/teach the pole dancing at Johnny's club when she gets the itch of the dancing (NOT the itch of doing it in front of men).
One detail i caught, not sure if anyone cares but it does go along with Ana's reactions in the beach and hotel, and I, for one, am SO GLAD we were spared of this at the plane trip if it happened like she said..
she said that when the plane landed she stood up and cheered loudly at the pilot with the spelling 'gimme a P!!! gimme a I!!...' and Fernando told her that everyone on the plane was laughing out loud at her gimmick. well, if he has 'grown out' of being ashamed at her peculiar /folkloric/ colorful gimmicks, then he HAS changed for real.

You are probably right, Marta.

Dear UA,
This is a great recap and you have some wonderful screenshots. I will not see this episode for a few days -- at my mother's with limited internet access -- but I feel like I have seen the real thing.
I am with Hera and Athena -- TMI to discuss with older children.
It bothers me, too, how easily Ana lies to Fernando. However, she does feel guilty about that and knows that she is wrong. This doesn't excuse it, just shows how great her fear is of losing Fernando and the children.

My greatest fear is that this will result in them breaking up and not getting back together until Luz graduates from college... or never.
Oh, Marta, I hadn't caught that about the plane trip. May the gods and goddesses be blessed, they spare that for us.
Question to ask Fer is, were they laughing WITH Ana, or AT Ana. I'm sorry, I fly on business a lot, and if someone had started doing that on a major flight, there would be a lot of head shaking, whispers of someone had WAYYYY too many of those little cocktail bottles and a steward trying to shut said person up since we were still taxing.
I'm baffled why this is supposed to come off as cute anymore? At the start I think it was meant to show a certain level of innocence, which directly contrasted with what Ana did for a living, but now, it just seems rude and inconsiderate of others.

I'm sorry, I fly on business a lot, and if someone had started doing that on a major flight, there would be a lot of head shaking, whispers of someone had WAYYYY too many of those little cocktail bottles and a steward trying to shut said person up since we were still taxing.
I'm baffled why this is supposed to come off as cute anymore? At the start I think it was meant to show a certain level of innocence, which directly contrasted with what Ana did for a living, but now, it just seems rude and inconsiderate of others.

UA: I'm curious as to why you keep saying that you are afraid that Ana and Fer won't get together at the end. My TN watching history is fairly new, but I have yet to see one where the leads don't get together. I know it happens, but isnt it rare? Does Osario have a habit of it? He didn't in PEAM.

I think we are headed for a big break-up but then there will be so many folks on Ana's corner... starting with the kids, at least the 5 younger ones plus Fanny... (Nando is too much like Fernando to not side with him)
So i keep saying it will be others, possibly including the kids and relatives and friends (betty?) to vow for Ana... but the big turnaround i see when Fernando finds out about the baby's paternity and he puts 'who told me the BIGGEST MOST CRITICAL LIE and made me look MORE like a fool' on the balance.

It bugs me because The Big Reveal should have happened about 30-40 episodes ago. That should have been followed by about 15 episodes of angst and then 5 leading up to the reconciliation because they will need a strong bond to fight the evil ones.
But wait... those are the rules for a drama.
But Osorio seems to break a lot of rules and this whole Alternate Ending thing is another fly in the ointment. While one of the alternate endings of Teresa would have been completely appropriate, the alternate ending (online only) of LQLVMR would have been a complete downer.
And since Osorio said the series will not end with a wedding what else can we think?

I agree, UA. this is an Osorio project and he has his own writing style/wrapping style for novelas...
I do see Ana/Fer wedding, so if Osorio said it is not how it ends, i still see the wedding happening in or near the last week, then, as you said, them making a strong team front to fight the remaining evil entities.

I would have brought the big reveal after Ana had told Soledad the truth... Soledad SHOULD have encouraged her to come straight with Fernando if not right then, right after the new year. Not wait for a 'miracle'.
Marta: I was thinking the same thing about the wedding. It could be before the grand final.
If they are going to pair Fanny with someone at the end--though she's too young--I'd like to see Osario do a switcharoo and have her fall in love with Lenin. I was just talking to Flaco about the differences between the two "Ls" and realized that Lenin may be a better choice for her. Leon has a temper and major jealously issues and has a young son. Lenin is growing up.

Daisynjay, you have an excellent point about Ana's behavior in public. They seem mismatched.
If Ana lies about something like this and includes some of his family in the deception, how on earth would Fernando believe she nor they would do it again? He cannot. If she does something else, believes she will lose him, she will lie again and again and again. The end justifies the lie.
I don't see it a win for Fernando when he takes Ana back because her deception comparatively less egregious because it didn't include the paternity of a child. He's still been made a fool of, one by a woman he cares nothing about and one he completely trust and loves. I say Ana's deception much more painful.

Here's an awful thought: Ana gets pregnant, the Big Reveal happens, and Ana goes back to El Oro with her mother. Fernando goes after her and she doesn't take him back because the motherhood hormones have taken over and she no longer wants him.
Since Mexico leads Latin America in the percentage of unwed mothers I'm surprised no novela producer has taken this route.

Wow. Laura has gone from painfully catty to downright Coo-Coo for Cocoa Puffs. She has burned a bridge the size of the Golden Gate accosting Fanny in her own house.
Let's see. Who has she turned from a friend to enemy?
1. Fanny
2. Leon
3. Freeky
4. Reina
5. Ximena
6. Eatit
7. Me

Interesting thought...if Fer blows up and kicks Ana to the curb, if only for a while, who takes the care of the kids..and especially little Diego? I can't imagine Soledad will stay in the house ( or he wants her to). Manuela--she has to cook. Fanny has school, etc.
This should prove rather interesting. And I think we are being set up for a myriad of possibilities on the alternate endings. Osorio said no wedding, so if he doesn't do it prior to the fnale, we could have an option of those two at least making up and him proposing again, but then you wonder what the heck else could be the alternates. Are the alternates nothing but the teenage romances...perish the thought. And I read somewhere there would be a dance number at the end? WTH? If each ending is a musical number finalizing the plot, I offer to flip for an industrial size box of TUMS for all of us to share.

The perfect match is still Johnny and Ana, two rather dim-witted people. That would leave Jennifer, who does have a brain, to go on with her life, single and happy about it, and hopefully able to adopt a baby on her own. Johnny is sooo beneath her.

tofie, you do have a great point about Ana possibly lying again to Fernando if she attempts to avoid him some pain or avoid the kids from some punishment(God forbid... Cancelo! Cancelo!)... but i don't see her having to lie about something THAT serious or THAT critical for THAT long... We have seen them (Ana and Fernando) bounce thoughts off each other when it comes to the kids and the kids relationships... then again, the precedent is there, isn't it?
(that whole convo in kitchen with Ana saying Fanny is thinking with her head not with her heart and Nando thinking with his heart and not his head made me get an instant headache ... oh and don't get me started on that joke of hers about the difference of 'en base a' and 'en base en' [in regards to] that made him so confused he laughed it off ... GMAB!!!)

Thank you UA, very thorough as always.
I think the writing is on the wall with regards to Leon and Fanny. She has avoided using the L word with Lenin, and Leon has already admitted that he still loves Fanny.
I agree with everyone about Nando being included in the grownup talk about Fer's trip to the beach with Ana.
Also, I can't stand the baby talk that Ana does with Fernando. Yuck!
I hadn't thought about the idea that Ana could get pregnant. But that is a common cliche in TNs, she finds out she's pregnant, she tries to tell Fernando but he just found out about Chicago dancing and has a huge fight about it and they break up. She never tells him her big news, she leaves town and has the baby all by herself with her mother. After the baby is born, Fernando gets the scoop about why she never quit dancing for Doroteo, he feels bad once he hears how Doro made her dance to pay back the loans, he looks her up and finds her, and then discovers that he has a ninth child.

Did they mention what beach they went to? This novella seems to have an abundance of establishing shots with caption to indicate "Estado de Mexico", but I did not see one for the beach.
Ana preggers? Nooooo! That would be so lame. It happened once and that was one too many times. Let's wrap up this novella some other way.
UA, can you take that last screen shot and slap a "Fin" onto it?
Agree in that Ana's antics now seem out of place. They were ok at first, but at this point in the story she should have changed some,much like Fernando has. It is nice seeing her so spontaneous, but so much that there will be combustion.

The biggest reason I can see her getting pregnant is that in the opening episode she indicated she wanted to have children before it was too late. When Johnny heard that his facial expression said it better than any words: "I'm not up for this."
Fernando is everything Johnny wasn't in that opening episode and he's also rich. By all TN rules it was inevitable that Ana would fall in love with him.
Under the heading of "Be Careful What You Wish For" I can see it happening just as the bomb is about to explode.

I think men believe it's erotic because of what it implies. IMHO
1) the pole is a phallic symbol
2) the majority of the pole dance is spent "rubbing" oneself against the pole (phallus )
3) and grinding one'side pelvis against the pole (phallus)
4) when the pelvis isn't in action, the chest is, thrusting itself against the pole
5) and upper torso and arm exercises / strength make the natural bust even that much bigger.
