Pasión y Poder #2 Wednesday 11/4/15

Regina and Daniela check to see if David is still alive after colliding with Joshua on the motorcycle. Once they realize he is alive Daniela and Joshua (Joshua says the accident is his fault) want to leave but Regina refuses to leave David alone on the street. She tells Daniela to call an ambulance.

Julia tells Simona that she didn't leave with David because she thinks Eladio is capable of taking away his inheritance. David is just starting off his career as an engineer and Julia doesn't want David to have to take care of her, and then there is also her father. (Does Eladio take care of Julia's father's expenses?) Julia says all the years she has had to suffer with Eladio are worth it for her son. Simona says that Eladio is cheap and controls Julia's expenses and cellphone. She does not care about those things, but it is getting harder to justify Eladio's actions to David. Simona comments that Franco might end up the beneficiary because he is Eladio's favorite.


Franco (Eladio's Godson) comes into Eladio's office/library and they talk business. Franco finds out that David is back and is upset and wonders why David didn't stay in Monterrey. He doesn't understand why David came back if he doesn't get along with his father. Eladio is about to say that David is not his son, but stops himself and says that it makes him happy that Franco supports him. Franco admires and respects Eladio. He is his right hand man and the only person Eladio trusts. He tells Franco to always remember that.

Arturo and Erick talk about the business to buy that property from Santos. Erick thinks with enough money the property is theirs, but Arturo is not like Eladio. He doesn't think that money solves everything. Arturo tells Erick to get the proposal and head to Santos' office. It is important that he get there before Eladio. Arturo leaves the office and Erick makes a phone call to what seems to be a mystery woman, asking what she will be doing later.

The ambulance comes for David. Regina goes in the ambulance.

Back in the office Erick makes a date with the mystery woman for later. Consuelo, his wife, walks in and asks who was on the phone. He acts a bit nervous and asks why she didn't knock. She says the door was open and the secretary said he was alone. She asks him to lunch to talk about her not being able to get pregnant. He thinks she is bothering him at work and he can't go because he has an important engagement. He tells her to go to the doctor alone. It's not his fault she can't have children. (Jerk!)

At the hospital, Arturo shows up and asks what's going on. He comforts Regina who is worried about David. He shows the patio a disapproving eye at seeing Daniela's choice of fashion.

Franco thinks that Eladio is offering too much money for the coveted property. Eladio is going to personally present the check. He would like it if Arturo were present so that he could see his face, knowing he can not offer more than him. Eladio gets a phone call that David is in the hospital and leaves.

Erick arrives at the mystery woman's apartment. She receives him in a black nighty and they go at it as soon as he walks in the door. I guess she's not a mystery to Erick.

At the hospital Regina is about to tell her father that they looked at David's license and know who he is, but she is interrupted by Daniela and Joshua who has just been dismissed. Joshua is discribing the accident when Regina just comes out and says that the other guy was David Gomez Luna. Eladio comes down the hallway and blames Joshua for the accident. Eladio accuses Arturo, saying that he set up the accident so that Eladio would lose out on the property deal with Santos. Eladio tells Arturo that he will pay for this.

Julia is worried because David doesn't answer his cell. Simona tells her to call David's friend Francisco.

Eladio and Arturo argue about the accident. Eladio accusing Arturo of planning the whole thing. Joshua asks how much is the bill, he will take care of it. Eladio is offended, saying it's not a matter of money. Eladio warns that if David dies, Arturo will pay with his life.

Erick looks at his watch and says he needs to leave. He has an important proposal to deliver. The mystery woman convinces him to stay a while longer.

The doctor comes and tells the gang that David suffered a skull fracture. They need to keep him in observation. There could be consequences due to the hit to the head. When Eladio asks what consequences the doctor says dizziness, trouble speaking, or even death. Eladio wants to see him but the doctor says he needs to wait til they finish doing some tests. Arturo gets after Joshua and tells him to call his parents who are out of town.

Nina is talking with a designer about Regina's wedding. Nina wants to see what choices Regina has made. She gets a phone call from Daniela telling her about the accident.

Franco is now at the hospital with Eladio. He wants to make sure Julia does not know about the accident. Franco comments that it's the first time he sees his padrino worried about David. Eladio is just worried that if David dies Julia will leave him and he can not allow that.

Julia wants to go look for David. She tells Simona to stay by the phone. She tells the driver that they are leaving. The driver wants to call Eladio first. Julia says that's fine, maybe he will answer the drivers call because he hasn't answered her calls. Francisco calls back saying he has not been able to locate David. Julia is so desperate she is about to leave the house to look for him. (Is David somehow related to El Nino Emi from Lo Imperdonable?) Francisco tells her to stay put; he is headed to her house. Francisco has a little chat with Clara, the cleaning chick. She offers him a coffee, but he can't because he's on his way out. She seems smitten with him.

Regina gets after Joshua about the way he was riding his motorcycle, which caused the accident. Regina doesn't think Daniela and Joshua realize the severity of David's injuries. Eladio tells Franco that he doesn't want any of the Montenegro's seeing or speaking with David. The doctor tells Eladio that David is in a room. He is under observation because of the hit to the head, but can leave tomorrow. Franco comments that David's injuries are not that severe, but Eladio does not want anyone to know David's condition. Especially Arturo.

Regina has David's belongings and hears his phone ring. She answers and it's Julia. Regina tells her about David's accident. Julia is headed to the hospital. Simona tries to stop her, telling her that she needs Eladio's permission. Julia does not care, her son needs her.

Consuelo meets with a friend. The friend has brought some magazines where Consuelo was on the cover. Turns out Consuelo used to be a model and she misses being one. When she got married Erick asked her to stop modeling. We also learn that Consuelo grew up poor and was an orphan. The friend says that Consuelo's life is different now and she lives like a queen. She tells her friend that Erick has changed and she doesn't know what's going on with him.

Eladio goes to give his proposal to Santos. He tells Santos that he would have been there sooner but he was at the hospital. He explains that Arturo will stop at nothing and caused David to have an accident, and he is severely injured in the hospital.

Consuelo tells her friend that Erick works all day and gets home late and exhausted. And he's not in the mood for anything. The friend can't believe it. they were so in love. Consuelo doesn't understand either. Erick fought for their love and for Nina to accept her. The friend worries that Erick has found out about her past. Other than being an orphan Consuelo says that the police took her to the orphanage after they raided a whore house and found her there. Consuelo has wanted to tell Erick but she can't bring herself to do it. She thinks that she can solve all her problems by getting pregnant.

Eladio lays it on think for Santos. Saying that despite being worried about his son in the hospital, he showed up because he is a man of his word. Santos reads the proposal.

At the hospital Regina is worried about Eladio's threats towards her father. He comforts her and congratulates her for winning the contest. Regina goes to talk to the doctor. Arturo calls Erick, who is in bed with his lover. Erick tells his dad he is on his way to deliver the proposal to Santos. Arturo is upset because he had asked Erick to do that alot earlier. He needs to get there before Eladio. Erick gets out of bed, gets dressed and takes off.

Daniela and Joshua (sitting in a somewhat compromising position) are in the hospital cafe. He is hurt by what Regina told him. Daniela just tells him to blow her off. He thinks he gets along better with Daniela. She thinks the same and they start making out. Regina walks in and sees them.

Eladio goes to see the mystery woman. She answers the door thinking it's Erick. Eladio wants to know who she was with.

Regina bangs a cup on the table to get Daniela and Joshua's attention. He begs to explain to her, and says that they were just talking. Regina slaps him and Daniela and calls her a "golfa". She tells him that they are not getting married. Then she takes off her ring, drops it on the floor and tells Joshua never to look for her again.

Our mystery woman is named Montserrat. She makes an excuse saying that the plumber was there earlier and she thought he might have forgotten a tool, and that's who she thought was at the door. Eladio isn't buying her story. He takes her in a choke-hold and tells her that he doesn't like sharing what he pays for. She better not betray him or else. She tells him she loves him and and would marry him if he wasn't already married. He dis-robes her and tells her he needs to make love to her.

A crying Regina tells her father that she broke up with Joshua and will not be marrying him. While he comforts her Daniela walks in and Regina tells her father to ask Daniela what happened. Daniela tells her father that Regina got mad at Joshua for the accident and she (Daniela) was just consoling Joshua and Regina took it the wrong way. Regina says she is lying and takes off. She bumps into Julia in the hallway. Julia asks if she is ok. Julia then continues down the hallway and runs into a doctor. Julia and Arturo are feet away but don't see each other. Julia goes to ask for her son. Franco sees Julia and makes a phone call.

Julia goes into David's room. He is ok but sore. He tells his mother what happened and remembers a girl being with him in the ambulance. She asks him to never leave the house so upset again. She asks him to stop fighting with his father. She says she knows he is sometimes difficult. David argues that his father is ALWAYS difficult. David feels Eladio's hate. Julia says Eladio's loves him in his own way. David says he loves his dad too but he's not going to let him mistreat his mother. David asks her to find out about the other motorcyclist and asks how she found out about the accident. She tells him a girl answered his phone. She thinks the girl is a relative of the other cyclist.

Arturo runs into Joshua. Arturo wants to know what happened. Joshua says that Regina is over-reacting. Arturo hopes that Joshua didn't hurt Regina in any way.

Franco calls Eladio and tells him that someone told Julia about the accident. He gets out of bed and gets dressed. Montse wants to know what Arturo Montenegro did this time.

Daniela goes to her mother Nina with the chisme that Regina hit her and is accusing her of kissing Joshua. Daniela again uses the excuse that she was only consoling Joshua after Regina had scolded him for the accident. Nina says that Regina always over exagerates. Daniela says that Joshua should be the offended one because Regina seemed to be more concerned over David, the other accident victim, who ended up being her father's worst enemies son. Nina is impactada.

At the hospital Arturo wants answers from Joshua but is interrupted by Joshua's lawyer who wants him to sign some papers. Julia is about to go into the waiting room where Arturo is but is stopped by Franco. She wants to know why they didn't tell her about the accident.

Regina is at home crying. Miguel comforts her. Regina expects the worse from Daniela, but is hurt by what Joshua did. Miguel wants to know if Regina really loves Joshua, or if she is just trying to escape the house full of crazies. Joshua introduced her to a new world. A world her mother always wanted for her. Did she really enjoy it, or was she once again seeking her mother's approval? Nina comes in and wants to know what they are talking about. She warns Miguel not to fill Regina's head with stupidities, and reminds him that she is his half-sister. Nina tells Regina that she has to offer an apology to Daniela and Joshua. Regina does not want to. Nina will not permit Regina to cancel the wedding.

Franco plays innocent and tells Julia that he did not know that Eladio had not told Julia about the accident. He is sure Eladio didn't tell her so that she would not worry. Eladio walks in and argues with Julia. He claims that she is only there to see Arturo Montenegro. She tells him that he's crazy. Her son had an accident. She doesn't have time to think of anything else. He tells her that she never stops thinking of Arturo. She denies and asks what Arturo has to do to with the accident. Eladio tells her that Arturo is there because his son-in-law was the one that hit David. Cara de impactade de Julia.

Regina refuses to marry Joshua. Nina blames Miguel for putting ideas in her head. Nina doesn't think Regina should cancel her wedding over a misunderstanding. Regina tells her mother that she saw them kissing with her own eyes. Nina says she always exagerates. Miguel supports Regina. She says she is not marrying Joshua. Nina tells Miguel to stay out of their business. Regina tells her mother that she should support her, after all she is her mother. Regina announces that once she finds out how David is she is leaving to Queretaro. Nina wants to know why.

Eladio wants Julia to leave the hospital. He starts blaming Arturo for the accident. Julia says he's crazy because Arturo is not that way. And she thinks it absurd that he wants to argue about Arturo when he should be worried about their son. She doesn't understand why he is there when he doesn't even care about David and then concludes that he did it to make her suffer. They are interrupted by Franco and a business phone call. Julia excuses herself to go to the ladies room. Eladio motions to Franco to follow her. Julia tells him she can go alone.

Nina tells Regina not to worry about remodeling houses. Once she gets married she won't have to work anymore. Regina says she wasn't getting married to be maintained, and she is going to work in a field that she likes. Nina blames Miguel. He tells her that she should be proud of her daughter. Regina says the problem is her mother has never cared about what she does. Nina says that is not true because she has spent the past several months worried about her wedding. She tells Regina to forget about Queretaro and her tantrums. She is going to marry Joshua. Regina tells her no and that her father will support her. Nina says over her dead body.

Arturo gets a call from Nina. She wants to talk about Regina. He tells her they will talk when he gets home. As he puts his phone away he looks up and sees Julia. He calls out her name. She turns to see him and their eyes meet.

Avances: Eladio publicly accuses Arturo of the accident.

Comments:
Wow a great comprehensive recap AuntyAnn thank you!

Montserrat is so nasty, gosh girl take a sponge bath or something before the next show.

Don't remember who said it yesterday but I agree Michelle Renaud is playing Aldonza again from La Sombra. Guess that's it, in her repertoire.

What? Julia cannot even go to the toilet without Franco her minder. I've done volunteer work in third world totalitarian regimes with less hovering.
 

Just a quick note before I read the rest of the recap, I'm pretty sure Regina's fiance's name is Joshua, not Georges. The ccs also say it's Joshua.
 

AuntyAnn, this was amazing. Truly.

Your recap was interesting, encompassing and a joy to read.

Thank you for bringing those of us with limited Spanish comprehension up to speed and so splendidly.

Actually, I was going to go into a rant about Julia's treatment by an obsessive and crazed Eladio but I don't need to bother after your "Julia cannot even go to the toilet without Franco her minder. I've done volunteer work in third world totalitarian regimes with less hovering" tofie. 'nuff said!!!

I wasn't surprised Regina shed her fiancée, but a bit taken back that it happened so soon. This surely won't inspire any sisterly affection, will it?

Susana can convey a gamut of emotions with but a single look. The yearning, love, regret and happiness at seeing Arturo were conveyed with a single glance. I am looking forward to their future...

Diana
 

Thank you AuntyAnn for capturing this beast in all its tawdry glory. While you did a fabulous job of detailing all the pesky exposition that gets thrown at us in the first few days, I was delighted to see you haven't left your sense of humor behind in Mina Escondida. (Shades of young Emi indeed!)

Subtle it's not. I think we can get through this as long as we don't let ourselves get too attached to the canaries. :-)
 

Thanks so much, AUnty Ann , for this detailed recap.

Wow, we are really hitting the ground running. The lines are being drawn , and there is no doubt as to who are the goodies and who are the baddies.

There are a lot of goodlooking folks in this tn, but Franco...oh my...so pretty and perfect.

So...Monserret is a busy bee servicing both Eladio and Ricky. After the tale that MonyMony spun to Lad, I am trying to decide if I want to refer to Ricky as The Plumber or The Tool.

It is interesting watching Adair play a good girl. I get a kick out of Ricky being so sure that it is all Consuelo's fault that she is not getting pregnant. Yeah, I guess the decision is made...he is definitely The Tool. #science

And that little romperwearing weasel Daniela..I guess everyone consoles tgeir future brothersin law by kissing them on their lips.
 

Maybe I misunderstood or heard wrong (please correct me if I did!) but wasn't it mentioned that Julia herself comes from a rich, noble background? Why would she need to stay with an abusive man in fear that her son will get cut out of his inheritance when she should have family money that could provide for him? She's not like Nina or Consuelo who both brought nothing of monetary value to the marriage, she would have come in with money..maybe not as much as Eladio has amassed now but surely enough to make sure her son doesn't need for anything and is taken care of. Plus, Julia has been married to Eladio for years it seems.. if they were to divorce, even with his greed and lawyers, surely she would get some sort of settlement and with that could again, provide for her son, who by the way, is an adult and can provide for himself.

I obviously knew that SG and JS were the 2 halves of the true love pareja in this TN going in but it didn't really hit me until the end of this capitulo with them seeing one another and me seeing them together on screen. I watched Uni's late night rerun of LQNPA not too long ago where the actors played siblings and did so quite convincingly so it's definitely weird for me to see them now with a romantic background and of course, a romantic future. I'm sure I'll get into it quite quickly but it was definitely odd. Oh and a sidenote, SG as mentally stable Cynthia was EVERYTHING for me in that TN. She stole the show and stole my heart.

Thank you Jarifa for your detailed recap for us all! I really appreciate it.
 

*I meant thanks AuntyAnn..sorry! I had just read a recap from Jarifa right before this one for Antes Muerta Que Lichita and mistyped.
 

Anon321, we did hear Simona say that Julia comes from a "familia de abolengo" (an old, distinguished family), but we don't know if the family is still wealthy or, even if it is, whether Julia's personal wealth is in some weird legal tangle. I'm sure we'll get at the details soon enough.
 

Tks AuntyAnn, recap fantastico

Well, I think I know what is going to happen to Eladio for his comeuppance, the manicomio, he is loquisimo.
 

Gracias, AuntyAnn.

Eladio is completely loco and a sociopath and I hope the actor hasn't gotten insane enough to actually get that tattoo. Had I seen this before writing yesterday's entry I would have been more careful in commenting about his physique. He wants to pass for Old Money but that tattoo is the clearest evidence that he wouldn't. I realize that this is a non-PC viewpoint but I don't think actors should get tattoos. I hope it was faked.

Simona must be very well-paid to put up with Eladio's nastiness and the way he keeps Julia a prisoner in the mansion.

The character descriptions up front said that Monserrat works for Eladio's company and she is their spokesmodel. I think Erick is getting ready to betray Arturo deliberately rather than incidentally.

More in a bit.
 

AuntyAnn, this was splendid. I have to get myself back into "drama" mode with this one after watching two "comedies" ( and I use that term lightly with Muchaca.) Lord, I felt like I was getting hit over the head with some of the dialog and actions last night.

I think we need to raise our class to Monsterrat for her stamina and athletic abilities. Lord, the girl works harder than anyone else on this show.

The whole hospital span was a bit dragged out, but you just knew they would wait until the bitter end to have Julia and Arturo meet up. Lovely scene, and tonight I'm sure it will go south fast. That pesky worm Franco is still around, so I'm sure he will break it up and go squealing to the boss. I may not want to see the home scenes with Eladio and Julia. If it's gets overly abusive, I'm out.

Side note--sorry not a tattoo fan. Anyone know? Those FC tattoos--are they real or fake?

The idea in TN's with women of a certain class wanting to just be rich and kept bugs me. What's wrong with rich and working? Nina has a brialliantly smart daughter and she acts ashamed that she would want to work instead of prance around in tight clothes and do...what do they do? Loved Arturo's look at Daniela's outift. Priceless.

I found Julia's reasoning to David flawed, but I guess I get it. If Eladio is paying for her parents to live a certain life style, she basically is the pawn being used for that. I want to meet this father to find out if he's a jerk too allowing his daughter to be treated as she is ( or if he knows). This dude could actually be the fly in the ointment to truly free Julia...not David.

My guess is David doesn't want the money and with a Masters, he'll make a nice living, even one that can help his mother at first start fresh.

Daisynjay
 

The character description given to us is that Humberto is the same kind of control freak Eladio is. He might have coached him in his treatment of Julia. Could this be because he hated that she was female? I hope it doesn't take long to find out.
 

AuntyAnn, a lovely recap you caped for us.
That Eladio person is stone cold crazy. I think he needs a psych analysis. He's about
3 sheets to the wind and paranoid. And that
Monsterat chick is workin both sides of the
Deck. And both guys are nuts.
Consuela, sweet unsuspecting lady that she
Is. Getting pregnant does not fix a marriege
Thats fallen off the cliff. Only this bad one is being kicked off.
So juliet is taking the crap off of eladio cause
He's takin care of daddy? Well there is a limit
And it might be more than that. This guy is
brutal and crazy. Thats a bad combination.
O honey, what did you marry into?
Georges is a wimp. He and daniella deserve
Each other. See, all of these people are misplaced. Their in the wrong family they're married to the wrong people. Why do they do this to these tns? because they wouldn't be good to us if they weren't mixup up and twisted Up and screwed up. But sometimes they take to long to unravel the lies, the mix
Ups and the screw ups. let's see how this one works out.
 

FC never had tattoos on his gorgeous bod, so I doubt he would get one at this late date, especially one like that. Wm Levy had one (temporary) for La tempestad.
Jose Ron has his spinal cord tattooed on his back, for real. Cristian de la Fuente has some.
 

Julia needs to watch Mujeres Asesinas.

Arturo must be blind to not see what goes on in his house. He had to have had a very good nanny for Miguel or he would be completely screwed up by now. He would never let Nina get away with calling him a bastard if he ever saw and heard it. Maybe Helloisa from MIVAC could convince him that security cameras would be a good idea.

For the above reason -- and what we all saw in the first episode -- he might be convinced by Nina that Regina should not call off the wedding.

Since the actor playing Joshua is no great shakes I wasn't sure he'd be around long because Regina and David are destined for each other. Now I'm wondering if family history is destined to repeat itself.
 

Thank you so much AuntyAnn for a fantastic and detailed recap of the second episode. I loved your reference to El Niño Emi from Lo Imperdonable. :)

I knew there was something I didn't like about Joshua and I was right. He's a jerk. Joshua and Daniela do deserve each other. I was glad when Regina walked in on them kissing. She sure gave the two of them goods slaps.

Yes, Montserrat does work more than anyone else on this novela. Wow.

Consuelo's backstory should be interesting. I find it hard to believe that Erick was ever a decent man who fought for her to be accepted in the family. It's funny how she said that he comes home exhausted. We know why.

How easy was it for Eladio to fool Santos' into believing his story that Arturo caused David's accident? It's stupid for anyone to beliveve that because there is no proof to back that up.
 

Fernando Colunga's tattoo is probably a fake and not real. The character of Eladio must have required one for some reason. It will be interesting to find out what it means.
 

NovelaMaven

Thank you for explaining what "familia de abolengo" means. I had a hard time finding a good translation for it when I looked it up to do the character descriptions.
 

Hey, at least Eladio didn't end up getting his sloppy seconds last night. And Monserrat (what a slutty look she has) is afraid of him.
 

Not able to record this on Weds so will have to catch up tonight on Uni On Demand, but just read the recap and OMG! Can't wait to see it!!!

Thank you AuntyAnn for the awesome recap. I believe this might be the first one of yours I've read. Looking forward to more.

Got to read everybody else's comments now. Yay!!!

Nanette

(It seems to be ! day for me)

 

Diana: I thought it was a little soon to be rid of Joshua (looked it up on IMDb and it is Joshua). Was glad, but think UA might have a point and this isn't the end of that relationship. Nina knows how to work it re: Art.

UA: didn't someone say to Art that he worked a lot so he didn't have to deal with his family? Maybe that's why he's clueless.

NovelaMaven: Please don't jinx the canaries! I'm sitting at the Save the Canaries table on the patio.
 

Ok is it george or joshua that engaged to gina? And who is georges, and why does he have an s at the end of his name? Is it french?
I don't like Fernando's tattoo its too big and thick like his characters attitude. Is he compensating for something? I never notice his pointy ears cuz back in the day he wore his hair long. But he Is still a good looking man.
 

Thank you, Aunty Ann, this was a fun read.
Eladio is a freak, that's for sure.How long before Julia grows a backbone, I wonder

I wonder about Eric and Consuelo, too. He is a jerk and she is a Julia in training.
 

For LQNPA fans, is it just me who noticed that scene where julia (susana gonz) called out the name of her driver named Efrain? Was that a pun Jose Alberto Castro put in :P hahaha. great recap. Can't wait for the next episode.
 

Nina, I put his name in as "Georges" yestrday because that was how it sounded to me. The Spanish for Joshua is Josue, but for whatever reason this character uses the English form. That was confusing. I changed it in my recap for yesterday.

And he is a complete and total jerk.

As for Consuelo I am wondering whether her secret is having been pimped out in the brothel by her own egg donor.
 

I was verra happy to see Reg smack both Josh and that little weasel. They both deserved a smack.

Just wait until CraCra ELadio finds out that he has been sharing MonyMony's favors with his arch enemy's son. Yikes

I have a friend who is a pyschologist who got an enormous, lifelike tattoo of a snarling tiger on the inside of his forearm. I have a feeling that he got some criticism because when I complimented him on it, he thanked me for my "positive feedback !" I would like a small tatoo , but I am afraid of needles..and catching something nasty.
 

Sorry folks. I will correct Joshua's name in the recap as soon as I can.

Thanks for stopping by everyone. I appreciate all your comments.

More later...
Hasta Pronto
 

Thanks, AuntyAnn. Terrific recap and helps me keep up with who’s who.

So glad they let us know right away that Joshua is a jerk. Now I don’t have to fret about Regina falling for David and hurting her fiance's feelings.

Eladio pays Montserrat. Wondering if Erick pays her too, or if she does him for the fun. She certainly doesn’t play it safe.

That tattoo reminds me of a streetfighter’s. Maybe it’s to indicate Eladio had a rough and tough beginning, or maybe he just thinks of himself as a streetfighter. Anyhoo, it was a big surprise to me.

Renji Herbosa, thanks for bringing up Julia (SG) calling for “Efrain.” I wondered why that was so familiar to me and didn’t think of La Que No Podia Amar.
 

That's okay, AuntyAnn. I like the name Georges for him. :)
 

I don't know if this was discussed in the synopsis thread, but to me this novela seems very familiar. It reminds me of Mundo de Fieras. A remake, perhaps?

Montserrat sure is trouble. Though it doesn't surprise me that Eladio and Erick are cheaters.

I hope the canaries survive too. I don't want a repeat of what happened in ENDA.

Lots of things going on already. Hope I can keep up.
 

AuntyAnn- Such a delight to read your recap. First weeks of a tn are hard, so don't sweat getting a name wrong, especially when you have provided such a wonderful recap.

Nothing new to add. ITA with everyone that Eladio is craycray. I couldn't figure out if he really thought Julia came to the hospital to see her old flame, or if he was blowing smoke, like when he accused him of planning the whole accident to hurt his son.

Monse is playing with fire. She seemed to enjoy her time with Erick, but not so much with Eladio.
 

Hello every one. Thank you for the recap. I am going to give this one a whirl and see. I am thinking Arturo will be seduced, badgered and cajoled into not supporting Regina. I hope he can resist. So we have lots of jerks in this one. I already have my "pox on you" list, lol.
Romy
 

Thank you for clearing that up UA. And hes a
Kingsize jerk. I knew regina was gonna fall
For david and he for her when they bumped
Into each other when she was getting away from her crazy mom and her lousy sister in that wedding boutique. Thats another battle
Thats comin.
 

So many characters so fast, only the second day. AuntyAnn what a terrific job. I still don't know half of the characters or what their part is but you have got it down already---and you thought that I was kidding when I said that you were a full A team member.

I have heard of people being kept on a tight rope before but OMG! I feel sorry for Julia. Eladio is an obsessive control freak and a borderline psycho. I don't know hoe she has made it this far with him.

NovelaMaven---we can get through this as long as we don't let ourselves get too attached to the canaries. --- I have to confess that I already am.

I thought that the hardest worker would be Daniela but you guys nailed it and I have to agree that it's Montserrat. Does she get a raise?

Anon321---Cynthia was everything for me in that TN, she stole the show and stole my heart.----mine too.

Urban---Add me to the I hate that tattoo list.

What will happen after that last scene look last night?

must see tv
the gringo
 

Hello Everyone!
I went back and corrected Joshua's name in the recap, plus a few misspellings. I know someone asked about Julia's family background and whether she had money. I could not for the life of me understand what Simona was saying. Thanks to NovelaMaven for clearing that up. Please let me know what else I missed.

I want to thank each and every one of you for stopping by today and for leaving such awesome comments. I really appreciate it. Please forgive me for not thanking each of you personally.

I already do not like Daniela or Nina. And Joshua is a Jerk. I hope that Arturo finds out that Joshua and Daniela were doing and punches Joshua in the face. I don't condone violence, but that guy is really smug.

David seems to be a total sweetheart; total opposite of his father. And Miguel seems to be a really nice guy too, just like HIS father.

I am liking the Consuelo character. Can't wait to find out where her story goes.

I hope Eladio doesn't see Julia and Arturo together. That could be really bad. Can't wait for tonight.

Hasta Pronto!
 

When he doesn't see it he makes it up. That's what abusers do. I think he's been gaslighting her all these years.

And Nina is one sick bitch. She has to demonize Miguel, why? Is she planning to become a black widow and have Erick inherit everything she can't take first?
 

Thank you, AuntyAnn, for your recap! I haven't read it yet, but I know it's fabulous. Haven't read it because I haven't seen the episode yet, but will probably see it later.

So glad you're on the recap team!

 

I finally am able to comment after a long day. Thank you AuntyAnn, I haven't read one of your recaps before and I thought it was terrific.
It's nice to see all the commenters here who I haven't seen for a while. We've been on different shows lately, but we're back together again.

I thought the tattoo looked fake also. I hope it is.
 

The tattoo is bigger than he is. Thanks for the recap!
 

Hey Cynderella, are you here too? Long time no see.
 

Humberto is Luis Bayardo, He played Ciro in MEPS, the sweet man that checked himself into the manicomio to get away from his wife.
 

Variopinto: I remember him and can't believe that I do!! MEPS was my first TN.
 

So glad that you are translating for us again AuntyAnn. Thanks very much!

Eladio is totally paranoid! If he's so afraid of Julia leaving him why doesn't he treat her kindly.....what a stupido! Yes, that tattoo has to be a fake, I mean it's outrageous and don't think FC would ever do that to himself. Tattoos, in my opinion, do nothing for anyone. Why disfigure a perfectly fine body like that and be sorry for it later?

Perfectly awful that Eladio didn't tell Julia about David's accident. What a miserable excuse for a human being he is. Can't wait to see how things go with Julia and Arturo and I hope it turns out well for them. Maybe Nina will find herself a really really wealthy sugar daddy and leave. That Monserrat is ....... well, you know,
a w....!

Hi CathyX. I think I'm in love with Eladio. I'm glad that no one else likes him. There is more for me!
 

He's totally your type Cynderella. You love the bad boys.
 

Cynderella, I'm not going to fight you yet for Eladio, but I did see a sign that he might have potential.

He looked kind of sad when Julia brought up the honeymoon rape. And if he hasn't touched her again in 20+ years, that at least means he feels bad about it.
