Tres Veces Ana #62 and #63 - The Past Catches Up at Last
Ghoulietta auditions for Ghostbusters |
Present: Ana Loba updates Llora on the meeting with Marcelo. She explains he's left her for a side-piece. Llora is shocked Marcy-Marc wants a divorce from Ana Let, after all she's such a prize <eye roll> They discuss his accident & coma, and wonder who's body they buried. (Isn't this why dental records are used? Was the tattoo really that unique? This is why I'm getting a barcode, you can scan me at the supermarket AND the morgue. Easy). Ana Let thinks him a coward because he never sought her out, and now wants his freedom.
Mirror, Mirror on the wall..... Which of these 2 is most frustrating of all? |
In comes Leo to tell Llora that Ram is paying a visit. Llora goes bananas in pajamas. AnaLet offers to "entertain" him while she gets dressed. Her "entertainment" involves impressions of Llora limping. "Lookey, lookey, who am I?", she teases. (I naively yell at the screen "Gollum!!". I'm, of course, totally wrong). Ram tells her to stop (Ram likes his women humorless, bonus points if you're a crier). She bets he couldn't guess b/w them anyway. He thinks she's mistaken, but soon finds out he got punk'd only yesterday. He's not happy. But Marcelo couldn't confront her, so she had to force the situation and instructs to "Tell your friend, that in love, a woman is more dangerous than a man". Ram explains that Santi didn't confront her because he found out about her betrayal. She admits her mistakes but Marc is also a coward. She says she'll find out everything they're hiding. He's caused her to become bitter and unhappy, his love once made her touch the sky but now she's going to drag him to hell! Llora enters and asks if everything's ok. AnaLet responds that in fact, she happy and just adoressss seeing the lovebirds together.
Who Wants to Play Charades?! |
I'm King of the Mundo!!! |
Sole & Viri are bonding over how much business Sole is giving her. Viri offers an expensive LBD (little black dress) for AnaLu as a gift. She then receives the news that Dani is donesy. Solebad & Ceci bemoan the hardship of losing a child. Sole mentions her dead daughter, Sofia & the 2nd daughter that was sent to save her from dying of pain & sadness.
Santi & AnaLu talk about his plans with the divorce & with preventing Dani from pressing charges after he recovers. Funky Dad shows up to the rescue and gives the "good" news. Santi automatically feels responsible and wants to turn himself in. Fackmundo is against it, claiming that Santi didn't survive just to end up in a cell. Santi feels differently and expects his papa to understand that while Marcelo was a coward, he's going to step up and pay for his actions. Remedios enters the scene worried, Santi informs her that the man he beat up is muerto.
Inaki gives his condolences to Ghoulieta, she gives him a high-five to the face! She says all he cares about is the money she gave and that's all he'll get. Dani is her true son and the real reason why she abandoned him. Because she only has to look at his face to see the man she despises. (Que? You didn't even know who he was until he mentioned his name). She was stuck with Tadeo when she got knocked up with him and now he has no purpose here. Inaki is fighting to hold back tears. "Enjoy spending all the money you received by selling hope to a desperate woman. No one in the world would spend a single peso on you!". (I throw a sock at my screen, whattabish!).
Our Sensitive Inaki |
Llora gets reprimanded by Ram for her ploy with AnaLet. He complains that she's caught in her lies again, but Llora is sick of people not giving her credit for thinking for herself. She's no puppet or idiota! (How cute, did AnaLet train you to say that?). She's only defending her sister as he has been defending his friend. And if they can keep secrets, why she & AnaLet can play that game too. He wonders how they got tangled in this mess, she says it's when he decided to keep quiet. She teases that she thinks maybe she shouldn't be around him right now. He agrees. She tells him to hit the bricks, he says he will. He then takes each of her hands off her hips and bids adieu. She looks back at him & smiles.
Hand to Heart, Hand to Hips, His Heart on her Lips |
Rem pulls Facmundo into her private quarters to argue over Santicelo's fate. She implores him to understand that Santi needs his support. He'd rather get him out of Mexico & asks for her help. She refuses. He wants them to settle this "without masks". He tries to bribe her with compensation for all she's done for Marcelo. She's insulted by this. He condescendingly accuses her of false modesty and he thinks her a cancer to him. She retaliates and thinks HIM the cancer, followed by the 5-fingered cure across his cara feo! She tells him she prefers Santi to go to jail than to wear a cowardly face like his. She kicks him out. (I guess it's back to Funky Times at Le Ol' Cottage, eh Funky-Do?).
AnaLu tries to persuade Santi, but see he's not budging. She doesn't want him to do this alone, but he needs her there with his madrina. She offers her support and he asks her to seek Ram to find him a good lawyer. They promise to not forget one another and declare their love.
Mariano gives bad news to AnaLet. He tells her about Dani, and her crocodile tears cometh forth. He also hands her the divorce papers. She admits she already knew Marcelo was alive, but Jenny forbade her from telling. She says it was Jenny that helped Marcelo hide & deceive everyone. Mariano is confused and having a hard time believing. Crying, she says she feared they'd cancel the wedding, and she also needed to secretly meet with Marcelo. Mariano consoles her, and says they all messed up here. She's upset they made her into a joke. But he insists they won't repeat her (Jenny's) name and he'll gladly forget her. She can't do the same with Marc, but he promises to support her and that Marcelo will regret this.
Funky tags along with Santi on the way to the police, but Santi realizes he's not really there to support him. Funky argues that Dani is at peace and this won't bring him back. But Santi says he needs to find his own peace by submitting to the authorities. Funky uses his trump card; he threatens he'll tell AnaLu everything and take her back to her family. Santi doesn't like these threats and kicks him out of the car. (Ha! That's 2 for 2, ye Ol' Funky Boy!). Funky doesn't want to leave him making this mistake, but Santi forces him. He drives off, when all of a suddenly a truck slams his taxi flipping it 360° many times! Funky cries out, runs over and tries opening the jammed door. He yells out for help, as Santi is shown to be knocked unconscious and bloodied over. (I almost peed my pants, this was a bit scurredy O_o). A crowd appears, and one Samaritan offers to call an ambulance while instructing Funky not to move him. Funky later climbs into the ambulance with Santi and begs his son to fight. Santi begins to respond. Fearing himself lost, he sputters "Tell Ana Lucia that I will love her beyond this life". Funky asks him not to talk like that, then sees him go unconscious. He demands they help, the paramedic begins to pump his chest. (Viewerville: holding breath). Santi's eyes flutter (Viewerville: exhale)
FANGundo! |
Nerina comforts Rem by advising her not to be concerned about losing Santi. Santi is a good son, he'd never turn his back on them the way her children did. Rem feels she can't compete with a father, but Nerina reminds her that Santi loves her as a true mother. And it's not just his mother that keeps him there, but his love for Ana Lucia. Rem feels better knowing she has an ally.
Orblando strolls right over uninvited to AnaLu's bed where she lies crying. She asks him to kick rocks. He says he wants to be there for her. She states he's been far from a friend and already blew his 2nd chance. He explains that he acted out the way he did out of love. He can't suppress his anger b/c Santi brings her suffering. She refuses to listen further. He maintains that he made mistakes, but he's no criminal like Santi. She tells him he better "callete", but he confirms it by confessing he overhead Santi sent a guy to the hospital. AnaLu criticizes him for spying. He argues that he lives there and she can stop worrying since it seems the guy will recover. She corrects him, the man died. She exits. Orblando looks shocked and has a flashback:
Marcelo is beating Daniel. Daniel begs for forgiveness. Marcelo bargains that he will only if he calls and asks for Santiago Garcia. He must order Santi to remember that AnaLet hired Evaristo, and both are complicit in his attempted murder. Daniel, without a choice, agrees. We then see Spylando in the bushes witnessing the entire conversation. (So it looks like Ev decided to interrupt this call by finishing the beating. Although, it's odd he never entirely kills off his victims. Maybe he needs to dust off his "Murdering for Dummies" booklet)
Ev decides to freshen up on his "How to Get Away with Murder" notes |
Adriana, the secretary, is surprised Inaki is back so soon. Inaki flirts, and tells her the surgery wasn't necessary. He says things are changing for the better, and he pays back the money she lent. AnaLet comes over, ordering her to send flowers and cancel appointments since they'll be attending a funeral. Inaki goes into her office. He doesn't plan on going to the funeral. She laments over the fact he and Dani couldn't know each other better, having faced problems because of her. He's just glad he got his work days back. "But he's your half-brother", she reminds him. "But he's your lover", he retorts w/ confusion over their pairing. She clarifies it as Dani's reliability to do anything for her, things Inaki couldn't. Inaki's up for the challenge. She queries if indeed he loves her, would he kill for her? "More than that, I'd die for you". To test his loyalty, she asks him to seek out Marcelo. He's happy to do it but he wants in exchange for her to be his woman, his lover. (Ah, we finally have our devious dynamic duo. And so it begins.....)
The DIE-namic Duo |
AnaLu visit Ram at his place, she discloses Santi's plan to turn himself in, and his subsequent need of a lawyer. She confides that Santi loses power to his alter-ego, Marcelo, at times. Despite her concerns, he refused her advice to check into it. Ram thinks they can demonstrate his innocence by proving a psychological disorder.
Orblando is in a cafe having another flashback:
He pulls Dani off the ground & holds him up. Ev & his goons appear. He asked him to keep quiet, and he can't risk him opening his mouth. Ev walks away while his goons go at Dani like a pinata at a weight watcher's group.
Ev, always a call away, appears in front of a worried Orly. He asks him what the hell he wants. Orly feels guilty about the beating that led to Dani's death. Ev asks if he wants to end up like him. Orly doesn't, so in that case he needs to shut up and get over it.
Night and Day, Ev is just a kill away |
Rem asks for Sole's help because just like her, although there's no blood relation to their children, they love them as their own. She wants her help to keep Facmundo away from her godson, she wants Evaristo's help. Sole isn't supportive of this, Rem doesn't know what he's capable of. Rem says she does now, after learning of her hubby's dark past. Ev is the only one capable of helping Santi, and Sole is closest to him. She'll do whatever it takes to save him.
Mariano goes to see Erni and Llora. They discuss the loss of Dani for AnaLet, as well as revealing that they're all now aware Marcelo is alive. Mariano promises retribution.against Marcelo for causing his niece pain.
Rodrigo goes straight to the hospital where Fackmundo is admitting Santi under his original name, Marcelo Salvaterra. The doctor later arrives to tell him the operation went well, but he's still in critical condition. If there's anyone else he needs to call to be there, now is the time. (Crosses fingers he calls AnaLu)
Chana has her tarot cards showing queens of 3. The paths are closing now. There will be destruction over the love of 1 man.
Queens of Tres, They'll meet otra vez |
Ram shows up at the hospital. Rodrigo updates him on Santi's condition, he needs intensive care and that unfortunately, the culprit fled. Ram thanks him, then goes inside as he makes a call.
AnaLu tries on her new, but very tight (as she said), black dress. Sole helps her to fix it, when the phone starts to ring. She answers "Santiago, is that you?"
Fackmundo is by Santi's bed. telling him to keep his strength up. He has a surprise, someone who's eager to see him. Santi is happy. "Ana Lucia......my love". In she walks, wearing her tight-fitted black dress and red lipstick, looking very much like AnaLet. That is until we realize that no, it's actually the heifer herself! Santi refutes her, but she ignores him saying she couldn't be separate from him. "Here I was only a day ago because of Daniel dying at your hands, and now here you are in the very same life or death balance".
Mirror, Mirror on the wall, which of these 2 Queens will fall? |
Rem receives the call from Ram. She wants to know what news he has for her. In the other room, AnaLu discusses with Sole the call she got from Chana. It's about the cards. There is very much danger and pain ahead. Just then, she hears Rem crying out in the hall. Santi had an accident! Everyone in the pension piles into the hall. AnaLu grabs the phone to find Ramiro on the other end. She asks him what hospital he's in. Ramiro tells her not to worry, that he'll call her and then abruptly hangs up. He looks over in the waiting room where the Alvarez family sits. Ramiro tells Llora he's surprised to see them there. Funky called them on their way from Dani's wake. She lets him know AnaLet went in to see Marcelo.
AnaLet says she's not surprised that he'd hurt Dani. She only cheated to arouse his jealousy after a year of his neglect and constant travel. She reminds him of his promise on their honeymoon, that their love will be invincible. She believes that although she thought she buried him, their love is stronger than ever so she can't give him a divorce b/c they belong to each other. She strokes his hair, telling him she forgives his 3 years of neglect, and begs for his forgiveness, too.

Ana Leticia taunting Inaki about the FAMILY going to Daniel's funeral. Inaki asking why ALet and Daniel had a thing. ALet tells Inaki Daniel would do anything for her. Inaki tells ALet HE would do anything for her. ALet starts to discuss money but Inaki says he doesn't want her money, he wants her in his bed as his woman.
Inaki playing Mr Big Shot, waving his money around Adriana the receptionist & asking her for a favor.
Ana Lucia worried about Santiago; Orlando comes up begging her love again & saying Santiago beat up Daniel. Ana Lucia questions how he knows this but Orlando claims he hears things around the pension. ALu is not interested in listening to Orlando anymore.
Orlando later has flashbacks to seeing SantiMarc beating up Daniel but he leaves. Then Evaristo & his grandthugs beat the life out of Daniel while Orlando holds Daniel up. Then Orlando meets up with Evaristo feeling all guilty & Evaristo tells him to get over it and keep his mouth shut.
Remedios confiding in Soledad; says she's scared of losing Santiago & the reason she is now Soledad's accomplice is because she sees how much AnaLu loves Sole as a mother. She also asks Soledad to get Evaristo to help her with Santiago.
Santiago & Facundo argue. Santiago puts Facundo out of the taxicab and drives off. A truck hits Santiago and flips him over several times. Facundo cries for help & begs him not to die. Santiago goes into distress as the paramedics attend to him.
Viridiana sent over a dress for Ana Lucia. Ana Lucia's dress is sleeveless & black with cutouts at the shoulder AND midriff. Soledad puts Ana Lucia's hair up in an updo.
Apparently Facundo told Ana Leticia & Family about Marcelo's accident at Daniel's funeral. Facundo goes to Marcelo's bedside & tells him he's brought the woman he loves to his bedside. Marcelo said something like thanks or something like that. Enter a triplet, with an updo and a sleeveless black dress with cutouts at the shoulder.
Ramiro called Remdios & told her about Santiago's accident. She screams. AnaLu & Soledad hear and rush to her side. Then Ana Lucia picks up the phone & asks Ramiro where the hospital is. He hangs up because the Alvarez del Castillo/Rivadiniera family is there.
Ana Leticia tells Marcelo that both of them were unfaithful & it was his fault she was unfaithful because he was working all the time. And she's not giving him a divorce because they were made for each other. Marcelo says NOTHING the entire time she's talking to him.
Chana looks at her tarot cards and determines the 3 sisters will cross paths soon and there's danger ahead blah blah blah.
Avance: Ramiro is talking to Ana Lucia on the phone when Ana Leticia snatches the phone from his hand and screams at UNKNOWN SIDE CHICK to leave her man alone!
When the doctor told Ghoulieta that Daniel died in the very early morning, Inaki waited for him to leave his room, then got up and got dressed. Gratuitous shirtless shot of him in front of Ghoulieta, who was particularly cold in saying that he and Javier were in the way of her happiness and her future and that Daniel was her only son. Add an insulting remark about their father for good measure. She only stayed with him after he knocked her up. I'm waiting for the day when she tries to get the money back.
AnaLoon told Mariano another pack of lies about Marcelo and how Jenny enabled him faking his death, thereby sullying her good name as well. He fell for it hook, line, and sinker as she lounged on his lap in that orange number that has no business being in an office.
It never fails to disgust me when otherwise intelligent men let any female sociopath off the hook because of her beauty.
And the red nail polish on AnaLoon is always a dead giveaway.
Julieta really did say vile things to Inaki last night. I'm sorry Viridiana missed all of that (she showed up just after Julieta finished). I'd like to know what Viridiana would have thought of her friend after hearing that.
Another scene I remembered: Abuela and her friend (I don't remember her name) met with Evaristo. Abuela wanted to know if it was a good idea to have a website with photos of AnaLlora and AnaLet, explaining that they're looking for a third. Evaristo discouraged this, saying it might attract fortune-hunters or encourage bad people to take advantage of AnaLu.
And if she tries to get the money back, tell her it's blackmail time and her fancy society friends surely wouldn't want to find out she had some poor kids and left them behind to get her George & Weezy on.
I'm getting tired of Ana Leticia getting away with her lies too. I think I turned off the tv when she was putting her personal spin on the Marcelo story to Ana Llora, and Llora was eating it up and believing it all. These people!
BTW, one of the reasons that Fabián Pizzorno is the perfect casting choice for Facundo is that both he and Sebastian Rulli are from Argentina. Not to mention they both have blond hair and blue eyes. We may see them again as father and son.
And after seeing him give gringos a bad name in PyP, I'd like to see him become a good guy for a change.
I don't understand why Daniel's eyes were open. That was weird. People in a coma (as far as I know) don't open their eyes, right?
How can Ghoulietta be so cruel to Inaki? What a horrible mother. I don't understand any mother who leaves her sons behind and disappears from their lives to run off with another man. She has no sorrow, no remorse for what she did to her sons. She is so self centered and ugly. It was not even a "I'm so sorry, I was so young and immature" kind of thing. She JUSTIFIES what she did to Inaki. No wonder he continues to hate her. I would too because she basically told him he and his brother meant nothing to her. Maybe she was similar to Ana Le when she was young.
That lie about Jenny and Mariano's decision to never even speak Jenny's name again was ridiculous. Everyone seems to have amnesia. Of course, not Facundo, who is playing some other game and inviting Ana Le to see Santi. No memory return for us it seems.
Anna- Love the first part of the recap that you've posted. "No they must suffer the consequences of separating us. If they couldn't open their heart to me, why should I for them?" Ernestina makes a good point. Soledad never once considered or cared about their suffering. Why should they show her any courtesy when they discover her?
Thanks, Anna, for the recap and great screen caps. I am no stranger to power outages in my neck of the woods and they are so frustrating.
I was glad to see that Evaristo was behind the fatal Daniel beating. It just goes to show he hasn't skipped a beat.
At the present time I do not know who is worse, sniveling Ana Laura or rotten Ana Leti.
I cannot believe the whole family was stupid enough to to be reeled in by Ana Leti hook line and sinker once again. She was even sitting on tío Mariano's lap again. That was "pukeable" .
Poor Santiago/Marcelo is barely alive and he had to listen to Ana Leticia blithering on and on.
I hated what Iñaki's mother said/ did to him last night. What a b****!
Cannot Evaristo just kill Orlando, and Facundo then maybe arrange for an (successful this time) "accident" for Ana Leticia and for Ana Laura is she does not shape up?
Not liking many characters and want them gone.
Well, maybe not. I can't take much more amnesia. But I really want her to be dissatisfied with his reply!
Ernestina's friend's name is Miranda, and she is the doctor's wife.
Viridiana needs to get some new friends. Ghoulieta is a few genes short of humanity.
Ana Llora letting AneLe pretend to be her with SantiMarc AND not coming clean to Ramiro first about it is the last draw. Yes, Ana Llora, you are a puppet and quite stupid -- too stupid to have kids with Ramiro. You'd let Ana Leticia's kids bully your kids and tell your little ones they need to understand that AnaLe's kids have awful issues and why not just be a doormat for them to help out.
This novela should be titled something like "Tres Veces Ana and Las Dos Caras de Marcelo", ?in line with the amount of the plot the M/S role is taking.
This character(s) is a nice change from the lead male protagonist in "Lazos de Amor". I much prefer S/M or is it just Sebastian Rulli I love looking at.? I like how SR doesn't have a Mr. Universe body (see Zepeda and Iñaki--IMHO too over done especially with the 2 sizes to small shirts). SR just has a well sculpted body!! He is an Extreme Sports enthusiast.
