Caray, Caray!

Imelda is being accompanied by her new gofer Ignacio.  She needs Ignacio to be totally dedicated to her and one step ahead of everything. Ignacio assures her that he will not be a tortoise but a hare. Imelda arrives at her store and sees Crisanta. She tells Ignacio that his first job will be to construct a wall in between their stores to divide them and to get Crisanta to pay for it.  The women start exchanging "witchy" insults and their "assistants" join them in other insults. 

Back at the hospital, Nonno talks to Guido about how he fears that Gabriel will not be able to take losing even one baby.  Nonno remembers perfectly when Gabriel's mother died and Gabriel himself almost died from  the grief.  Guido can sympathize having lost his own parents. Guido is sure it will all end well because destiny's plans are always perfect.  He smiles.

At work, Catalina tells Susana about her failed marriage and how her husband, too, went far away.  She also had children to take care of and looked for some kind of explanation in the planets, the stars, the universe but was still left with a lot of unanswered questions.  Susana agrees that separations are difficult and she took refuge in  her work and closed herself off from love.  That is why she is afraid of her relationship with Pancho failing.  Catalina tells her that just because they failed once doesn't mean  they have to be failures for the rest of their lives even though society  tends to make women punish themselves more for their past mistakes.  She asks if we do not live now, when. She tells Susana she is responsible for the success of her relationship with Pancho. Susana agrees and smiles thinking ahead to what might be like a marriage.

At the same time, Pancho is with the kids group (united troop) getting their input on the proposal event. Dave is in touch via a video call.  Lupita tells Dave  that he is so creative and romantic.  They miss him a lot. Pancho just stares at his daughter.  Dave says he misses them a lot, too, but he likes New York and his grandma Blanca  is helping him  with his English. Pancho hates to break up the conversation but he needs some ideas. Frida states it is the United Troop's job to make the proposal unforgettable.  Dave asks how Sebas feels about Pancho being his stepfather.  Sebas says the only thing that is missing for Pancho to actually be his stepfather is for his mother to accept the proposal.   Julio says Sebas could always call him "Papanchodastro" (stepfather Papancho)They all laugh.  Pancho needs to get an engagement ring.  Pancho would like to propose somewhere outside. Frida suggests that they make it a flash mob type of event.  Dave thinks that would really be good. When  does Pancho want to propose? 

Diego and Temo are playing soccer. Diego is pleased with how their relationship is going. Temo reluctantly agrees.  Diego is going to tell his parents they are going out and wants Temo to come home with him and meet everybody.  Temo wants to wait a bit longer before they do that. 

Ari walks in on an upset Polita. She says she isn't really crying, her eyes are watering from the hot broth she was cooking.   She tells him that Audifaz came by and to tell her he misses her.  Her heart stopped and she got all trembly because she misses the old Audifaz, the man she married. Does she think Audifaz could ever change back?   She says only time will tell. She notices that Ari's eyes are sad.  He says he feels strange like he is missing something.  Polita says something like "Temo."  Ari agrees and feels so stupid for his lack of courage. He feels like he cannot really do anything because he isn't sure about who he is.  Polita tells him to listen to his heart. Ari adds that the heart is never wrong but thinks it is just too late. Polita tells him to fight for who he wants.

At the hospital, the doctor comes out and tells Gabriel that Dani is not doing real well.  They did blood tests and found a substance in her blood that  hurt her and put her at risk for a miscarriage.  They do not know exactly what it is but will do more tests.  Indeed it was something toxic that could have been ingested in food or drink. Dani is on complete bed rest to avoid further bleeding. She is also on progesterone therapy and folic acid.  She and the babies are still in danger.

Frida comes into Eugenio's room to visit with him.  She thinks it would be better if he were to tell everyone the truth. That way everyone could help him remember.  Eugenio's mood changes and he says he has told her a thousand times that everyone would suffer because of him. He doesn't want to be a burden. Frida reminds him of all the damage that has been done to the family through secrets. The truth gives us light. Eugenio is left with a lot to think about.

A little later, Gabriel talks to Dani who is still in pain and crying. He tells her not to give in.  He tells her that they love each other and the babies. He tells the babies to hold on. He kisses Dani and her belly. They have to live.

Hugo is on the phone talking with Susana about Sebas being readmitted to their school.  Diana bursts into his office.  She cannot stand that  Hugo has taken over her job. She is going to get her position as principal back.

Sebas has a plan for the proposal but only if Pancho is open for something extreme. Pancho sure is!

Later back at the hospital in the waiting area, Gabriel is trying to be strong but is afraid.  Finally the doctor has some good news. The three babies are responding and stabilizing themselves. Gabriel and everyone is/looks overjoyed except for Guido. Linda assumes that her sister is out of danger. Not so fast, The doctor explains that there was a premature separation of the placenta so the pregnancy will be high risk from  this point on. When Dani is discharged,  she will be on complete bed rest.  Guido excuses himself and goes to vent his rage in the bathroom. He rips the paper towel dispenser off the wall.  A maintenance man  sees it all on the floor when he comes in. Guido explains there was a spider and leaves. 

Pancho is exercising his abductors with side leg lifts. Crisanta and the kids are supervising his exercise regimen. Why? He has to be is really good shape  to carry out the proposal plan. Sebas asks for Crisanta's input on Pancho's declaration of love. Crisanta loves it. She feels young again! Pancho's training continues. 

Catalina and Susana talk about the work schedule.  In the meantime, Catalina reads Diana's blog "Misadventures of My Mother-in-law"where she is mentioned as being with a younger man. and everyone makes fun of her. Susana tells her to forget about it. Susana  doesn't know why women have to be so cruel to each other. Catalina is happy with Tavo  but now she is starting to have doubts.  Susana reminds her that  she was the one who said you have to fight for a second chance at love. 

Back at the school, Diana tells Hugo she never would have given him the P.E. position if she knew that this would have been the result. The board did it to punish her.  Hugo asks her if they didn't give him the job because he deserved it. She apologizes.  She says that they fired her because of the firework accident. She gave her whole life to the school and they didn't even want to let her in the school to see him.  Hugo promises to work hard for both of them. Diana tells him he does not get it at all. That is not enough. She wants her position back. Hugo says he is not even close to competing with her. She has to explain to him that he is in competition with her. They are a married couple who want the same job. 

Back at the hospital, Gabriel talks to Dani. He is so happy that the babies are better. She wonders where the toxin in the  food/drink  could have come from. Gabriel says it doesn't matter. He tells her that she will have to be on complete bedrest when she leaves. She is upset.  She can trust him.  

Susana tells Catalina that women may be taught how to do their hair, makeup, wear high heels and smile but are never taught what men are: to be brave and to take risks.  Things are changing, though, because women are becoming empowered.  Catalina says women themselves have to open the doors to opportunity. Susana adds that is even more true when it has to do with love. Catalina asks why do women have to fight twice as hard for everything and only get half as much. Susana says the only opinion of her that should matter is her own.  They hug.

Back at the hospital, Dani is worried about being in bed, not being able to work, and  feeling useless. Gabriel  tells her that motherhood is a full time job but they will find some way she can use her creativity and do some work while in bed. He will even get her a bell to ring.

Out in the waiting room, Guido thinks that it is really good that he and Nonno are staying with Gabriel and Dani so they can help take care of them. Linda thanks him for worrying about her sister.  Guido insists that  he will take care of her. Linda, Clarisa and Casandra will also help out.  Nonno says they can be brave as a family and help out Daniela. Guido  stares.

As Susana and Catalina continue to talk about the challenges that face them, Susana receives a large purple envelope.  Inside is an invitation for Susana from Pancho.  He is asking her to go on a date with him this afternoon and to wear sports clothes since they have many "tests" ahead of them. Susana is clearly pleased and excited.  Susana decides to get to work because she is going to have to leave early.

In Blanca's kitchen using Doña María mole sauce, Pancho has made lunch for him and Eugenio. Pancho says it was no bother because he is Eugenio's adopted son. Pancho tells Eugenio that he really needs to tell his family the truth to get more help.

Back at the hospital, Linda and Gabriel visit with Dani.  The doctor comes in and confirms that she wants Dani on total bedrest so the placenta does not detach completely.  Dani knows but says she works. The doctor informs her that from now on her health and that of her babies are her priority.  The doctor gives Gabriel a list of things to watch out for. A bunch of balloons accompanies Guido and Nonno as they enter the room. Nonno also has a bouquet of flowers.  Nonno tells Dani and Gabriel not to worry about any expenses because he is covering all of it.  Gabriel says he will pay him back.  Nonno will not permit it and will protect them and his future great grand babies. Guido just stares some more.

At Blanca's, Imelda comes into the kitchen.  Pancho says he dropped by to tell Eugenio that he is going to propose to Susana. She asks what he is going to do with all of the children.  He says he first has to get Susana to say yes. Eugenio asks "yes to what?". Imelda gets aggravated and says that Pancho was just talking about proposing.  She asks what is going on between Eugenio and Pancho. Eugenio says he doesn't want to beat around the bush but he has something to tell the whole family: the truth.

In the principal's office, Susana meets with Hugo hoping to get Sebas enrolled again at the school. Diana is also there. Hugo reminds her how serious Sebas' actions were. She knows and informs him that her son has been in counseling and has finished the course of treatment. From this point on, Sebas should be of minimal concern.  She has a letter from his psychologist. Hugo says because of the gravity of the situation, it makes his readmission a difficult situation. Susana agrees. She proposes that Sebas is enrolled on a trial basis and make him do special homework or something else. She believes we all deserve a second chance. Diana agrees with Susana. Susana says she would be happy to talk to the school board about Sebas if necessary and also try to get Diana back in the classroom. Hugo agrees but she needs to know that Sebas will be under strict supervision.  They all are on board. Catalina comes in to see if Diana is as brave in person as when she is hiding behind her darn blog.

At the apartment building, he kids group meets.  They  end up playing spin the bottle because Sebas wants Linda to kiss them on the cheek.  They play until Diego's bottle points to Temo. An argument breaks out but it is time to go. Diego asks Temo why there was no kiss.  Temo reminds him he loves him but he has always been honest and he cannot pretend that he feels nothing for Ari.

At Blanca's, the whole Córcega clan gathers in the living room and they all discuss where Dani should be staying during her pregnancy.  Of course, Imelda wants her at the family home. Eugenio says it is best that Dani is where she is the most comfortable.  The Mussi's are also her family.

Before he says anything, Eugenio makes everyone present promise that they will not mention any of what he is going to tell them to Robert, Julieta or especially Blanca.  They all agree to his condition.  Eugenio knows he has been forgetting  a lot of things lately. He announces that  he has Alzheimer's.
