Caray, Caray!

It's late in coming but at least it is here!-edit.

• Isela has another bout of guilty conscience.  After hearing Claudio’s confession that he screwed around with Marta’s sentencing to please his buddy, the other judge, Sr. Monterubio, hide his sins.  First, she visits Orlando in the his old apartment and says if only…..They share an if only hug. (Alarm bells should be going off about now for the Viewerville aficionados.)

• Clod admits his guilt to Max who tells his papi he deserves to rot behind bars for knowingly using his influence to help the rich and powerful.  Clod says he hopes he’s opened Max’s eyes a bit so that he can properly defend Maria Dolores.

• Speaking of MD, she’s telling off her guard and Marcia, the Women’s Warden, that she knows how Marcia and Grrrrsula have colluded in trying to take her baby away from her; she’s also threatened the guard with spilling the beans to UNOWHU about the horrible way common prisoners are treated in this prison; and, woe is they if anyone dares raise a hand against her again or puts her back into solitary AND if they don’t get Nayelli out of the punishment cell and fast!!



• Clara and Leo start to make nice again while sharing photos of the new baby on their cell phones with Doris .  The bought-off nurse apologizes to Esperanza for letting those strangers in to see the baby instead of MD’s immediate family members.  (So how about donating that cash you got from Grrrrsula to some unwed mothers’ charity, hmmmm?)

• Jenny and Fermin go together to the insemination appointment.  She thinks loving thoughts about Julian while getting her innards doused.

• Alma has sent over the hideous funeral wreathe to Hosey with a note saying she knows it was Hosey who was so mean and tasteless as to have sent it first to her.  Hosey has a fit of temper and tears it to pieces, leaving it lay on the ground in the center court of the complex.

• Ise leaves Orly’s place and pays a visit to Josefa.  She tells Hosey that she was right about Clod all along, that he just confessed to her.  And yeah, she made the mistake of falling in love with her mother’s abuser, but that’s all over now and she’s leaving to move her and her kid far away from both him and gritchy Great Grannie.  This results in a tremendous fight on the balcony along the tenement complex’s exterior.

• Ivana’s guests have all arrived at her office for the wedding ceremony.  Suzanne calls to find out where she is.  Ivaca says she’s jilting Gerry and not getting married today after all.  She’s putting together a pink baby outfit in the nursery she was supposed to have dismantled a year earlier.

• Honoria watches in horror as Hosey and Ise fight on the balcony.  She sees Ise slip and lose her balance and go flying backwards over the balcony where she lands on the trashed up funeral wreathe.  Honoria and Hosey race down and start yelling at each other. Ise regains consciousness long enough to get Honey Bear to promise that if the baby lives not to let it go to either Hosey or Clod.  Orly somehow manages to walk into the courtyard just then and he falls over Ise’s motionless body, sobbing.  He bends down to hug her belly and starts yelling to the others that the baby’s still alive.  They scream for an ambulance that just happens along at that moment.

• Ivaca calls Ise and Clara picks up the phone off the pavement where it fell.  Clara informs Ivaca about the fall (and, we assume, the ambulance ride to the hospital.)  Ivaca arrives at the reception desk where Honey Bear and Hosey are waiting for word on Ise and her baby.  Ivaca asks who chose this particular hospital just as Clod races in and notices the two disheveled older women in tears staring accusatory daggers at him.  “—I am the father of her child!”  This seems to be in answer to Ivaca’s recent question as the tv novella gods would have it.  However, none of us have any idea as to Ise’s or the baby’s condition and we all must wait till the next episodio to know.
