Ep 28: Part 1 Married…Against All Odds
*Beto and Marina are in town. She tells Beto that she can’t find her birth certificate, but she thinks Doc Mask must have it; so they go off to Doc’s.
*Su tells Pru that she should be happy that Beto ended it with Marina; now Beto and Vanesa can get back together and marry. When Pru thinks about how Marina must have suffered in giving up Beto, Su rolls her eyes.
*Vanesa goes to the stables to look for Beto and sees Lino brushing down a horse. When she asks him for Beto, Lino coldly and formally addresses her when he replies that Beto’s horse is there, so he’s not out riding. Yola then comes and reminds Lino about his date with Tere. After Lino leaves, Vanesa is curious about Tere, so Yola tells her that she is one of her friends who has been crazy about Lino for quite some time.
*Doc greets Marina and Beto. When Beto asks for Marina’s birth certificate, Marina is about to tell him why they need it, but Beto interrupts and tells him that they’ll need it when Marina enrolls in the university. Doc argues that Marina still needs to take her exams and he is going to help her study, but Beto makes it clear that he will be the one to help Marina. Doc then tells them that he doesn’t have the certificate; he submitted it when he turned in the application for the exams. After Marina and Beto leave, Doc goes straight to a drawer and takes out Marina’s birth certificate. Outside, Marina wonders why Beto lies to Doc and others, so Beto explains that they shouldn’t tell too many people…they only want to keep them apart. After Marina assures him that she will always be with him, they go off to city hall to ask about a copy of the certificate. Meanwhile, Doc calls Don Louse, but Su answers, so he leaves a message for Don L to call him ASAP.
*Erasmo and Lino are out working in the orchard. Erasmo asks Lino to help him out with Yola since he likes her. Lino tells him that Yola has her head elsewhere since she wants to be an attorney so she can defend all women. After Lino suggests that Erasmo not give up on Yola, he shares about his conversation with Beto. Lino admires Beto since he fights against everything and everyone for love.
*Vanesa is in her bedroom being jealous. She goes to the window and starts singing Lino’s song.
*Baldo helps Damiana with her drink. He comments how he has always considered Marina as a daughter, but Damiana never agreed to let him be her father. When he tells her that he knows that she has always hoped that Margarito would realize how she felt about him, Damiana squeezes his hand, so he assumes that she no longer has hopes for Margarito and that she is giving him an opportunity to be with her as more than a friend. Damiana keeps reacting so he takes it as affirmation.
*At city hall, the clerk tells Marina and Beto that he found Marina’s information, but they still have to pay for the copy at another office.
*Baldo is still with Damiana and wonders what made her change her mind. He guesses it was because she almost died. He then tells her that after Marina marries, Damiana will decide his destiny because he will be with her forever.
*Marina and Beto leave city hall with everything they need to get married. They are very happy and excited that they can marry the next day.
*Angsty and Hortencia are talking about Damiana in the kitchen when Pru enters and overhears Hortencia say that Damiana is Marina’s mother. After Horti leaves, Pru asks Angsty why she hadn’t told her that Damiana is Marina’s mother and comments that Marina looks nothing like Damiana. Angsty responds that Damiana had a fling with a foreigner who left her pregnant with Marina. She thinks Marina must look like her father.
Ep 28: Part 2 Married…Against All Odds
*Beto takes Marina home and assures Damiana that he is marrying her daughter….and nothing and no one will be able to separate them.
*Beto gets home and gets questioned by Su. When he tells her that he is returning to the city in a couple of days, Su wants him to take her and Vanesa with him. Beto has no problem with it. Su then suggests that Beto not find solace in being alone. When Beto wonders what she is talking about, Su tells him that she knows about his break up with Marina. Beto tells her to not butt into his and Marina’s business. As Pru approaches, Beto leaves; and Su comments that Beto became very upset when she mentioned his break up with the blind one.
*Pru goes to talk to Beto who thinks Su is a hypocrite since she pretends to help him, but does every thing to keep him away from Marina. When he confirms that he is still with Marina and tells Pru to tell Su that whatever she told Marina didn’t work, Pru admits that she was the one who spoke to Marina. Beto does not take it well. Pru tries to tell him that she had no alternative since she was thinking of him and the family, but Beto chides her for not taking his feelings or Marina’s feelings into consideration…he had to beg Marina not to leave him. He tells Pru not to bother with excuses; he won’t listen.
*Tori arrives at Damiana’s very happy because he has the ID he needs to be a witness.
*Yola tells her father that she will need to go early to Damiana’s house to help bathe Damiana. She then asks Lino to take her into town because she needs to buy some things…and when he is there he can go by the store where Tere works so he can meet her.
*Angsty tells Pru that she shouldn’t have told Beto that she talked to Marina. Pru worries that Beto is very upset and disappointed in her. Angsty thinks that Beto loves her very much and will eventually understand why she did it. Pru then tells Angsty that Beto and Marina are still together.
*Vanesa sees that Beto is sad and assumes that it is because of his break up with Marina, but Beto won’t talk to her about Marina. Vanesa will support him and suggests that she will only be his friend. Beto thanks her and leaves. Vanesa whispers that it is sad that they have to give up whom they love.
*Angsty advises Pru not to tell Su about Beto and Marina. Pru worries that Susana will keep insisting on getting Beto and Vanesa married., but Angsty insists that if she tells Su, Su will want to go talk to Marina.
*Baldo tells Tori that he will need to stay and take care of Damiana while Beto and Marina get married. Tori insists on going since he has the ID he needs. Later, Baldo calls Beto and tells him about Tori’s insistence; so Beto tells him he will take care of it. Beto calls Yola.
*Yola arrives at Damiana’s house with a dress and shoes for Marina. Beto arrives, so Yola goes to see Damiana. Beto then tells Marina tha he knows it was his mother that tried to keep them apart. Marina understands why Pru did it and worries that she won’t keep her word, but she will prove to everyone that she is the woman for him. When she asks if he will have regrets later, Beto assures her that he won’t. He will start from zero by her side…he has her love…they will marry and no one will come between them.
*Su calls Don Louse to give him an update and the good news that Pru managed to split up Beto and Marina. Don Louse can’t believe Pru had it in her and that Marina left Beto, but he is very happy. Before hanging up, Su tells him about Doc’s call, but Don L brushes it off. When he mentions that Doc has feelings for Marina, Su is intrigued.
Ep 28: Part 3 Married…Against All Odds
Next Day—
*Lino notices that Yola is leaving early and all dressed up. She tells him she is going to Damiana’s and leaves as Erasmo comes in to ask Margarito if he can have some time off. After Erasmo leaves, Lino tells his father that it is odd that Yola left early and Erasmo asked for time off. Margarito tells him to go follow Yola.
*Erasmo arrives at Damiana’s and admires Marina who is in her new dress and ready to go get married. Marian then goes to Damiana for her blessing. As Yola and Marina walk outside, Lino sees them walk away from behind the house.
*Horti tells Angsty that Beto is not in his room; he left very early. Angsty worries.
*Marina and Yola arrive at city hall. Beto admires Marina and she likes the way he smells and knows he is wearing a jacket so she knows he looks very handsome. The judge tells them they will start the ceremony.
*Lino goes to tell his father that there is nothing to worry about. Yola is where she is supposed to be.
*Vanesa and Su are walking around town. Su wanted a diversion now that they can relax since Beto and Marina are over. Vanesa thinks that both Marina and Beto will be suffering and take a long time to recover from their split. Su doesn’t care; she just wants Vanesa to make sure to be there for Beto, especially when they go back to the city. Pru will be grateful for all the attention Vanesa will give Beto.
*At city hall, the judge continues and finishes the ceremony. Beto and Marina are MARRIED!!!
Wow. Color me flabbergasted. Never expected this marriage to actually take place so early. So what or who is going to gum up the works? Stay tuned amigos. I'l be out of touch for a few days, but thanks very much Rgv Chick. And I'll look forward to catching up next week.
Toribio's "I.D. Card" was just so ... Toribio. 🥰 I loved how he was holding it up during the ceremony.
The wedding ceremony got started, but did they actually finish it? I missed that. I thought they left us in progress.(?).
Su and Vane walking thru town looked like they could run into the newlyweds.
So, Baldo has been carrying a torch for Damiana, who has been carrying a torch for Margarito. Not quite small town Peyton Place, but still...
When Doc Mask pulled out Marina's birth certificate, he laid it down on a record turntable with plastic dust cover, just like from the 1970s. It has been ages since I've seen one of those!!!
Angsty just keeps digging a deeper hole with her lies. Ugh. Oh what a tangled web we weave . . .
Rgv Chickie, thank you! Ok, no mind melding, but you do have an identical twin, right?
I have not yet watched this episode from the beginning. I was out today and came in just in time to see the last few minutes. I was really surprised that they were able to have a wedding, I was certain something would prevent it. In fact, I was going to make one of my famous predictions and state unequivocally that they would not marry. That would pretty much assure that they would, if you know what I mean. :-)
Anyway, I did see the wedding and when the show ended I thought, "Oh, rats! A cliffhanger." If the wedding actually concluded I missed it. Nobody kissed the bride.
And a question for anybody who might know, and I had to "rewind" a few times and use CC to see it, but what does it mean to marry "bajo el régimen de sociedad conjugal?" I was cursing my DVR a lot because when I pause or freeze the screen the CC drops off. Anyway, I think I got it right, and they said "yes", so I guess it's an OK thing, though at some point they will have to have a nice wedding in a church or face the wrath of TN viewers everywhere.
Marina did wear a beautiful dress this time.

Maria la del Barrio starts Monday May 6, at 9:30a/8:30c on Galavision.
Ep 7, Part 1: Leavin’ on a Jet Plane
*Teo continues his sulking and drinking out around the town with pistol in hand. As he sits somewhere in a park, he recalls some tender moments with Flor.
* Father Elpidio (remember the name Marga mistakenly wrote on Aureliano’s birth certificate?) talks to Marga and tells her she’s been angry long enough; she shouldn’t take it out on Flor or turn her back on God. Marga isn’t turning her back on God; she is only turning her back on a criminal (Val). Father feels guilty because Marga has turned so bitter. Marga reproaches him for forgetting about her and what they had together.
*Itsamara and Flor talk. Itsa insists that Val is not good for Flor. Flor confides that Val is so much more to her.
*Val finds Chile at a funeral home and chides him for trying to steal. Valdebarrano appears in one of the caskets and listens as Val talks about his feelings for Flor and how he is in love with her. Val also regrets and feels guilty about Valdebarrano’s death.
*Teo is still in the park now thinking about how Val helped him after Flor rejected his proposal. As he puts the bullet into the pistol, Val happens to be walking by and sees him. Teo, who can’t seem to get up on his own since he is so drunk, chides Val for using him. He pretended to be his friend and then stole Flor from him. Teo knows Val has Flor but he has nothing to offer her. Later, Val and Teo struggle for the pistol and it fires. The bullet passes right through Valdebarrano who has been watching all along.
*Rosalia chides Flor for trying to take their inheritance. As Flor talks to Rosalia and her mother, she senses that Val is in danger; so she goes looking for him
*A cop comes along as Val tries to help Teo stand. Teo keels over, but then tells them that he is fine; he was just pretending. Val talks the cop into letting him take Teo home’ so he takes Teo where Flor sees them. Teo demands that Flor return the bracelet he gave her when they were younger. Val then takes Teo inside and helps him onto the couch and out of his shoes. Teo thinks Flor is unique, different from any other woman. After Val agrees, Teo makes him promise (several times) that he will take care of her.
*Flor tells Mariana that she feels really bad about Teo. She never wanted to hurt him and hopes he will find someone who will make him happy. Mariana then mentions that Teo already tried going out with someone else—Rosalia…but it didn’t work out.
*Aure drops off Blondie at her “appointment” and tells her he’ll be right back since he needs to go to his daughter’s communion. She wonders if he is going to leave her alone to fend for herself. He pleads with her and tells her that she can call him if she needs help.
*Chile and Val decorate a patio for Xochil’s celebration. Xochil hugs (uncle) Chile and is thrilled while Flor thanks Val for such a thoughtful gesture.
*Oscar, Teo’s father/attorney talks to Teo who tells him that he is leaving. He’ll go to Spain so that he can study a specialized area. Staying here seeing Flor and knowing that she is married is too much. He will stay in touch. He tells his father that he thought it out well and is only following his advice.
Ep 7, Part 2: Leavin’ on a Jet Plane
*Octavio calls Aure who is on his way to Xochil’s communion, but he tells Ocatavio that he is there waiting outside for Blondie.
*At the church, Father Elpidio tries to make Val move because he is sitting in the place designated for the godmother. Val insists on staying put since Xochil doesn’t have a problem with it. The mass starts as Marga arrives wondering where Aure is.
*Octavio is at Teo’s office. He is telling Mica about a “problem,” that a “friend of a friend” is having. Mica asks if he is having stress. He admits that he is, but then catches himself and wonders why it matters if he is having stress if it is his friend’s friend who is having the problem. Mica tells him to just relax and wait. Mica comes back with some meds for Octavio and tells him not to worry, it is a common problem that can be easily taken care of.
*At the church, the mass continues while Aure is stuck in sheep traffic. Later, he finally arrives at the church and gives Xochil a big hug.
*Mica says good-bye to Teo who has confided that he is leaving for Spain. Before leaving, he asks that she not fire Rosalia. Mica assures him that Rosa will be there when he returns as well as everything else that belongs to him. Teo isn’t sure that he will return. Mica points out that no matter where he goes, his broken heart is going with him.
*Val starts off the fiesta for Xochil with music and dancing. Itzamara’s son, Tito, approaches Flor and talks to her. As she flings back her hair, Tito is muy enchanted (adolescent hormones full blast). Meanwhile, the gossip ladies talk to Rosalia and tell her quite loudly that Teo tried to commit suicide. Flor overhears and asks Oscar if it is true; so Oscar tells her that Teo was just very drunk, but is now leaving town to distance himself from her.
*Marga approaches Oscar who is talking to Father Elpidio and asks what it is that he is talking to the priest about; she hopes that he is not talking about anything confidential. The priest assures her that they are not talking about her.
*Flor looks for Teo and asks if he was leaving without saying good-bye to her. He can’t leave just like that. Teo insists that he can leave because there is nothing and no one keeping him there. He wishes her and her baby luck. Flor is taken aback and assures him that there is no baby…it’s something that the gossip ladies are spreading. Teo then tells Flor that Val consoled him the day after she rejected her proposal. Val is a very lucky man. Flor hugs him tightly and tells him that she wishes him well because he deserves to be happy. He then gives her the bracelet he asked for earlier.
*Rose greets Mica and asks for Teo. After Mica tells her that Teo is not coming because he is leaving for Spain RIGHT NOW; she assures Rose that her job is secure.
*Blondie calls Aure to go for her because the man she had the appointment with went crazy.
JudyB, you will be missed. Hope all is well with you and your family.
Doris and Andy, you didn't miss anything at the end. You're right, the ceremony didn't completely finish so there was no kiss...yet.
Doris, "Su and Vane walking thru town looked like they could run into the newlyweds." I thought the exact same thing!
Andy, "bajo el régimen de sociedad conjugal?"" I'm pretty sure that means "under the laws of marriage"(including the community property system). So the judge was asking if they were agreeing to be united "under the laws of marriage."
Alexander, thanks you so much for all the info you give us on upcoming TNs. Maria la del Barrio...is that the one with Thalia? If it is, it's an old one!
DONA FLOR
Has anyone noticed Valderrabano's dimples? Niiiice! :-) And I just can't get used to the spelling on that last name! Ughhh!
“As she flings back her hair, Tito is muy enchanted (adolescent hormones full blast)” was touchingly perfectly descriptive.
Another stellar recap Rgv Chick!
I so wish I’d seen "Xochil hugs (uncle) Chile and is thrilled while Flor thanks Val for such a thoughtful gesture".
“Father feels guilty because Marga has turned so bitter”. Somehow, I think Marga would have turned sour with or without cause. While there is true unhappiness, some bring it on themselves by wallowing and living in the past. She has three children, why does she not turn her negativity into energy and channel it into them?
So Teo will leave to try and mend his broken heart.
Thank you for bringing these characters to life for us daily Rgv Chick. I posted a late afternoon comment under the previous heading, thanking you and the wonderfully wry Anita for all that you say and do.
So, I have a few days off near the end of May so am going to try and keep up in hopes of catching a few episodes then.
Your dedication is admired and greatly appreciated! Thank you,
Diana
Your, "The mother from Hades" describes Marga perfectly. I smile every time I write "Marga" because it reminds me of the Spanish word "amarga" which is a verb that means "to make or be bitter." Another perfect description of the mom!
I do hope that you find a way to see the episodes. I just can't do justice to some of the scenes that are hilarious. Teo being drunk as a skunk and Val trying to help him was hilarious. And, yes, Xochil hugging Chile and thanking her "uncle" was quite heartwarming.
OT-I'm glad you'll have some time off in May so you can hopeofully get some much needed and well-deserved rest. BTW, how is your husband?
Thank you, RGV. It certainly was a cliff-hanger, all the way through AND it's NOT over yet!!! I could so have done without Vanessa singing to herself. The poor girl has nothing to do except mope and listen to her mother. When she showed up at the stables, that was her first time out of the house in ages. She still comes across as a spoiled brat, now she's a jealous spoiled brat. How is Lino ever going to forgive her AND live with her--with them it was passion, more than love at first bite.
Angsty is going to have a hard time keeping her lies straight.
There's still a chance Vane and Su-weet will run into Beto and the wedding party.
There should have been a Bingo Square titled, Protagonistas swear nothing and nobody will ever separate them. How many times have we heard that and it does indeed happen. What we didn't expect in this one was a wedding before hand. I bet Beto wimps out on announcing he's married to his family--so I bet Vane & Su don't see them. It was just a teaser.
La Doble Vida de RGV. Gracias, amiga.
Like Diana, I was able to see this episode so clearly in my head, I didn't need to watch it. I would have liked to, but I'm expecting company and picking up and vacuuming is a priority.
Well the "Father"-son thing is a BIG open hint. I wonder where that will take us. And, I wonder what the 3H's will think of THAT, once it is known, as it surely will be, or this is not the telenovela we all expect!
So another senorita flings her hair.
If you watch Maria Mercedes, anyone, you will be surprised at how dated it is (1992), compared to new telenovelas. Some of the acting is stilted and over-the-top.
HOWEVER, if you watch, you will also be surprised that Fernando Colunga had a small part as a barrio boy, Chucho, who drops English phrases here and there. It was this role that caught Carla Estrada and several other major producers' eyes and saw potential worth promulgating on the screen. The rest is history.
Thanks for the great recap, Rgv Chick! It was so sweet when Xochi called Chile "Tio Chile." I really feel for Chile and Val having grown up in an orphanage, and being each other's family, and now they are starting to become part of a larger family.
Aure should NOT have left that prostitute alone, he is supposed to be there to protect her. I knew that wouldn't work out well. He should have told his boss he couldn't work that day since it was his daughter's communion. But once he agreed to work, he has the kind of job that you can't just walk away from, for any reason. I was disappointed in him. I know he's trying to do better by his family and he didn't want to lose his job, but you can't put someone in danger like that.
So Teo is supposedly off to Spain -- we shall see about that!
But in the meantime, I actually AM going to Spain. I leave this weekend for two weeks. So I will have to watch all of the DVR'd episodes and read the recaps and comments when I return. Hopefully I've learned a little Spanish from watching Mi Marido for the past five months -- I'm going to find out! (I known Spanish in Spain will be different from the Mexican Spanish of Mi Marido...)
Hasta, um, dos semanas! (okay, I have a lot of studying to do!)j
Lynne
""Marga" because it reminds me of the Spanish word "amarga" which is a verb that means "to make or be bitter." Thank you Rgv Chick - always enjoy leanring a new word! OT, thank you for asking about hub. He is keeping busy, walking a lot and taking care of our fur daughter who is having a few health issues herself.
"So another senorita flings her hair" was great Anita.
Diana
Ep 29: Part 1 One More Secret for Angsty
*At city hall, the judge urges Beto and Marina to consider all the terms and requirements of marriage. Both Marina and Beto agree to the terms; so the judge declares them married and they both sign.
Su-wank and Vanesa walks when Su remembers a bar she was told about. Su then stops and sees the sign at the Doc’s office. She tells Vanesa that the Doc is in love with the blind one.
*At city hall, witnesses sign so Tori wants to sign too. He presents his ID, and the judge thinks it’s a joke and tells him he can’t use that to sign. Marina assures Tori that he will has always been a witness to her happiness and will forever be in her heart. NOW, Beto and Mari are legally married!!
*Vanesa wonders who told Su about Doc so Su admits it was Don L. Su points out that Vanesa no longer has to worry about the blind one because Marina has her own handkerchief for her tears. Inside Doc sits in the floor by his bed wondering why Mari wants her birth certificate.
*Tori is happy that his princess now has a prince. Beto thanks Baldo for his support and Mari tells Yola she is so happy that she wants to cry. Beto wants to spend some time with Marina, but Marina worries about Damiana. After Baldo offers to go stay with Damiana, Beto asks his wife out to lunch (and etcetera...).
*Pru thinks that Beto doesn’t want to be there with her. Angsty tells Pru that Marina defended her. Hopefully Pru will now value Marina who has a big heart. When Pru points out that Marina didn’t keep her word. Angsty is glad she didn’t because Beto would be suffering. She wonders why Pru keeps thinking that Marina brings so many problems when it is quite the contrary.
*Yola comes to tell Beto and Marina not to go outside because Su and Vanesa are right outside. While Marina wonders what they are doing there, Baldo goes to look and comes back to tell them that they went on their way. Since the coast is clear, Beto and Marina go to lunch. Soon afterwards, Beto and Marina have their first lunch with champagne as husband and wife at a hotel. Beto tells her that when Dr. Bazan examines her, she will be able to see the panorama he is looking at.
*Baldo, Tori, and Yola return to Damiana’s house. Before Erasmo leaves, he asks Yola when she will accept his invitation to go out. Yola agrees to go out with him the next weekend; so Erasmo leaves with a skip in his step. After he is gone, Tori teases Yola and tells her that Erasmo has puppy eyes for her. Meanwhile, Baldo tells Damiana about the simple ceremony; Marina was beaming with happiness. When Damiana manages to say that they (the newlyweds) love each other, Baldo can’t wait until she is better so that they can tell Marina that they are going to give themselves a chance to be novios. Yola overhears and is very surprised. She wonders if Baldo is misinterpreting what Damiana is trying to say since Damiana can’t even talk; so Baldo asks Damiana to confirm it. When Damiana motions that Baldo is correct, Yola is not very enthused.
*Beto and Marina are in bed at the hotel. Beto would like to stay there all day. He thinks about everything that needs to be done before they go to the city together. Marina wants to find a job, but Beto would rather that she concentrate on her studies. Beto then tells her that Eric got him an appointment with his father who is a director at a hospital. He hopes to continue his specialized area too. Marina worries about when Don L finds out that they are married. She thinks he will be furious; so she will have to accept Baldo’s offer to move to his house.
Ep 29: Part 2 One More Secret for Angsty
*Marina tells Damiana that they will have to move soon since Don L will kick them out when he finds out about the marriage. When Dami asks if Pru knows, Marina explains that no one knows yet. When Beto returns from the city, he will tell his family. Marina then asks Damiana to ask her archangels to help her find a job.
*Vanesa talks to Pru and thought Pru would be happier, but she seems more depressed. When she tells Pru not to worry about Beto because she will help him since she continues to love him, Pru asks her not to insist in getting Beto back. Vanesa assures her that she will give Beto the space he needs despite the pressure from her mother to get him back. Beto then enters to check on Pru. Before Vanesa leaves, Beto tells her that he is leaving for the city in the morning; so she and Su are welcome to return with him. Once alone, Pru tries to talk to Beto, but he doesn’t want to talk about it. Beto emphasizes that he is an adult and can make his own decisions as well as assume responsibility for any consequences. Pru knows that her stress is a consequence of what happened with Marina. She asks Beto to forgive her; so he does.
*Yola tells Margarito that Baldo beat him to Damiana. She was hoping that Margarito would realize that Damiana had feelings for him. He locked himself in a memory and when she and Lino go their own way, he will be alone. Damiana could have made him happy. Margarito doesn’t think Damiana has been interested in him. (So Marina isn’t the only one who is blind in this show.)
*Beto tells Pru that he is leaving for the city. As he leaves, Su enters and mentions that Vanesa has told her about leaving in the morning. After he leaves, Su wonders if she should stay to care for Pru…that way Vanesa can go with Beto and they can be alone. Pru snaps at her and tells her to butt out of their lives. Su reminds her that she was the one who brought peace back to their home. She assures Pru that when they all return to the city, her son will be ready to marry Vanesa.
*Su makes small talk with Angsty. She asks how Marina’s mother is; so Angsty tells her that Dami can already say a couple of words...it won’t be long before she names who attacked her, though they both already know who did it. When Su feigns ignorance, Angsty smiles impishly and tells her that she does know because Pru told her that Don L sent Zackrat to throw them out. Su warns Angsty to be careful with what she says because she wouldn’t want Don L as an enemy.
Next Day—
*Baldo and Tori help Marina and Damiana pack their things to move to Baldo’s house. Beto arrives and helps Baldo get Damiana into the vehicle. As they take her out, Dami asks Marina if she is happy. Marina assures her that she is. They soon arrive at Baldo’s house. Marina and Dami will be in the bedroom; and Tori and Baldo will use the living room. Before leaving, Beto tells Marina that if she needs anything, she should go to Angsty.
*Lino takes Hortencia some things she asked for. She tells him that the ladies are getting ready to leave for the city with Beto. Lino returns to his house upset. Yola reminds him that he was going to get that skank out of his head, but Lino replies that it is easier said than done.
*Margarito goes to visit Damiana at Baldo’s, but first he asks to talk to Baldo outside. He asks Baldo about his relationship with Damiana. Baldo confirms it and asks Margarito to go ask Dami if he doesn’t believe it, but Margarito doesn’t want to bother Dami with such nonsense. When Baldo tells Margarito that he no longer has to worry about Dami and Marina, Margarito points out that he considers them family…and that is not going to change.
*Beto is back home and tells Angsty that Marina and Dami are now at Baldo’s. After he asks her to keep an eye on them, Pru enters to say her good-byes.
Ep 29: Part 3 One More Secret for Angsty
*Su orders Hortencia to tell that little peon to come help with them their luggage. Afterwards, Su answers the phone and tells Don L that Beto is saying goodbye to Pru since they are going back to city. She reminds him that Doc is still looking for him. Don L then asks about Dami; so she gives him an update and adds that he needs to make sure that Angsty keeps her mouth shut. After they hang up, Don L calls Doc who chides him for taking so long to call back. Don tells Doc that Beto and Marina are no longer an item.
*Vanesa sits outside with a long face. She says good-bye to Lino and he says the same thing as they both look sadly at each other.
*Doc Mask goes to Dami’s house. No one is there, so he wonders if they moved.
*Lino can’t believe that Dami finally accepted Baldo…at their age. Lino was hoping Margo would go for it with Dami. Yola suggests that Margarito go see Dami, but Margo refuses since Baldo seems to act like he is now their guardian and is going to look after them…when Margo has always been the one to provide for them.
*Su goes to the kitchen and overhears Beto tell Angsty that the money is for Marina and that she is to tell Marina that he will miss her and that he loves her.
*Su enters her bedroom and is PISSED!!. She thinks they shouldn’t leave after all and curses herself for believing that Beto had ended it with Marina (Kick yourself Su,...HARD!)…but she won’t leave things like this.
*Angsty tells Pru that Beto left money with her for Marina. Su listens behind the door as Angsty tells Pru that Dami and Marina no longer live at the house on their land…they are now living with Baldo, the cemetery caretaker.
Rgv Chickies, thank you both for this excellent and fun to read recap!
So they did actually get married, wow! But this is a story set in telenovelandia so it can't be that easy. I give this TN credit, it is a little unpredictable and I think the writers are working hard to keep us guessing. There was a lot of time spent on the documents required to marry, and the judge said they could return next week for something I didn't quite catch, maybe the marriage documents in final form. Now is all this going somewhere or just a red herring to keep us guessing?
So far no DNA testing and no "rare blood type" or anything of that sort. Well, something will come up, I'm sure.
I didn't know that Damiana had a thing for Margarito. Why am I always the last to know this stuff? :-)
andy
I didnt see the whole episode so
I just got the last part.
They actually jumped the broom.
Wow, good for them.Now they will
Be happy...... for awhile,ya no

Smile,watch beto sniff her hair,
Watch her hear beto sniff her hair, you know, happy newly wed stuff. Now I gotta see todays episode, to see how the newly weds faired. Or not faired.
Thank You Ms Chick
Don't fret Andy, you're not the only one that didn't know. So many unknowns
Yet to be discovered in this tn.
With sudoo sneakin behind the door it
Will start to fall apart for beto and
Marina. The beginnings of broken ♡s.
Again. Angsty should have waited until
Sudoo and her sad daughter left the building. But the tn people wants to
Spoil the happiness for us all:-(
Well at least my weekend will be nice.
Which is more than I can say for these
People.
Ok happy weekend yall. The official opening of the beaches this weekend.
Thank you Rgv Chick.
Ep 9, Part 1: Caught and Blackmailed
*Blondie is still on the phone with Aure when her client comes looking for her and calling her as if calling a cat. Aure tells her he’s on his way and won’t take long.
*Rose runs into the airport shouting out for Teo. She runs right past him, but he doesn’t hear her because he is at a table with huge earphones listening to music while he reads and has a sandwich.
*Aure tells Xochil he has to leave, but gives her a gift so she won’t be so disappointed. As he turns away, Mariana is there waiting for him. She chides him for putting work before family. He then bumps into Val who also asks if he is leaving. Aure admits he is leaving and asks Val to make sure everything turns out as it should. Val gladly agrees.
*Marga and Carmen, Mariana’s boss, are at a table complaining. Marga can’t stand Val because he thinks he owns the fiesta. When Marga comments that Flor has always been her headache, Carmen responds that Flor is her headache too since Flor and her husband are opening a dance academy. Carmen can’t believe Flor could do that to her after all she did for Flor; and Marga is aghast that Flor wants to take her out of her house…but it’s the husband’s idea. Val approaches them to see if they need anything. Marga tells him that he can leave town and let Flor be in peace; and Carmen tells him he can give up his idea of the dance academy. Val keeps smiling as he tells them he can’t promise anything. He walks away and goes to Chile who is standing against a tree as Valderrábano is trying to get his attention. Val complains about Marga since she won’t let up on him and asks Chile what he should do. Chile tells him to get used to it because his kids will probably be the same way. When he suggests that Marga needs a man’s energy. Val walks away frustrated and sees Flor. He asks her why she left him alone in this sea of sharks. Flor looks sharply at him and tells him she was talking to Teo who tried to commit suicide. When she reproaches Val for not telling her about Teo, Val tells her Teo was very drunk. He kept it from her to help Teo. Flor isn’t quite convinced, but adds that is doesn’t really matter because Teo is leaving. She then tells Val about the gossip around town that she is pregnant. Val thinks that is why everyone is looking at him funny. He gets everyone’s attention. After thanking them for attending the fiesta, he announces that he and Flor are married, but they are not pregnant.
*Crazy white haired man grabs Blondie and tells her she is not a kitty (speaking in English). As he has her pinned against the wall, Aure runs up to him and pulls him off of her. The man insists that he paid for Blondie and has every right to do what he wants. Aure, with gun pointed to the man, tells the man that if he doesn’t let them go, he will call Octavio and tell him what he did.
Ep 9, Part 2: Caught and Blackmailed
* At the fiesta, Carmen pulls Flor aside and asks about the dance academy. Flor replies that this is not the time to discuss it, so Carmen wonders if Flor will discuss it with her after she takes all of Carmen’s students and leaves her out of a house like she wants to do to her mother. Meanwhile, Marga is refusing to let Mariana serve the cake until Aure returns. Val assures Xochil that everything will be fine. Just then, Rose runs up to Flor and tells her she hates her because it’s her fault Teo is leaving and will never return. Val comes to Flor and Rose tells them to leave because all they have done is cause problems. Rose then tells Marga that if Teo is leaving, she will be leaving with him. As she turns and storms away, Valderrábano grabs a handful of cake and throws it at Rose when she turns back (bull’s eye on the face). Everyone looks toward the cake and sees Chile with a handful of cake. Rose grabs a cupcake from a kid and throws it at Chile. Chile then grabs more cake and throws it at Rose, but misses and hits Marga right in her face. Everyone joins in the CAKEFIGHT!!! as Valderrábano watches from a ledge and laughs. Mariana assures Xochil that she will buy her another cake, but Xochil is very disappointed and sadly shakes her head.
*Blondie blames Aure for what happened since he left her alone. When he asks her not to tell Octavio, she agrees but it’s going to cost him. She was hired for the weekend; and she doesn’t want to go back to the casino looking like she does. She insists that Aure stay with her until Monday or she will tell Octavio everything.
*As Flor tells Val that she made lunch for him, Marga calls her and tells her that she found out that they want to cheat her out of money since the house Flor wants is valued 10 times more than what Flor wants to give her for it. Flor thinks it’s absurd since the house is in shambles and needs a lot of repair, but Marga insists that if she doesn’t pay up, there is no deal. After she hangs up, Val suggests that they have the house appraised, but Flor knows that her mother will insist on the amount regardless. Val thinks that the lotto ticket he bought will bring them the money they need.
*Cassy’s father goes to see her in jail. Cassy thinks that all he needs to do is make a phone call to get her out of there. Her father reproaches her because he lost lots of votes because of what she did and now he won’t be governor. He reminds her that he at least saved her. When she asks when she can get out, he tells her that she will have to wait at least a year so that things can calm down.
*Val shows Chile the Casa Rosa and complains about the amount Marga is asking for. Chile thinks Val can easily swindle her, but Val refuses because she is, after all, Flor’s mother. Chile thinks it’s a sign that they should split town, but Val doesn’t want to mess up. When he tells Chile that he wants to prove himself to Marga, but that it will require money, Chile tells him there is a gold mine there in town—the casino.
*Marga hurries Rose since she will be late to work, but Rose is crying because she can’t go on without Teo who is the love of her life. Marga tries to console her by telling her that she asked Flor for more money for the house, but Rose doesn’t want to hear Flor’s name because everything that is happening to her is Flor’s fault. Marga doesn’t want to lose the chance of getting more money, but Rose doesn’t care about money because her heart is broken.
*Val and Chile go to the casino. They stake out the place for a while and watch as others play. Chile goes to a dealer and asks for a restroom, and as the dealer to turns to direct him, Chile grabs a deck of cards. Samantha approaches Val and reminds him that the last time he was in town he was going to sleep with her and now he returns to town married. Val assures her that a couple of months ago he would have enjoyed taking her to bed, but now he is married and in love. Sami tells him she was the same way when she first got married, but the honeymoon is over.
Ep 9, Part 3: Caught and Blackmailed
*Blondie kisses Aure good-bye and thanks him for everything.
*Sami watches as Val plays poker. She sees him when he gets a card from his sock and smirks. Once she has him alone, Sami wants him to stay and talk to her—he can talk to her or he can talk to her husband who will be interested in knowing that he and his little friend cheated all night long. Val offers her part of his winnings, but Sami wants HIM. She will allow him to continue to cheat as long as he pleases her…or else Flor will be a very young widow. Val wants to think about it, but Sami wants an answer NOW.
*While Val goes to get a bottle of tequila, Sami tells Octavio that she needs to go check on the girls at San Gregorio. Before she leaves, Octi shares that he went to see Doc Mica who is Teo’s associate; she gave him a little blue ill that will help him with his problem. Sami thinks that his problem is not down there; it is in his head. As she leaves, she motions Val to follow her. At the car, Sami tells Val to get down in the back seat so no one will see him.
*Aure is now with Mariana and wants to take advantage now that the house is empty. Mariana is pissed and tells him she has had enough of his lies; so he shows her that he works at the casino. Inside the casino, Chile loses all his money. After Octavio tells him to leave and return the next day, a worker tells Octi that someone is waiting for him at the door. Mari didn’t believe Aure; so Aure takes her to Octi who supports what he said about not gambling or drinking anymore; he is only a chauffeur and is not allowed in the casino. As they talk, Blondie passes by and says a very friendly hello to Aure. Octi then tells Aure he has a job for him.
*Flor goes to her mom’s house and Rose chides her for showing her face there after what she did to her. Flor only wants her mother to name a price for the house. Marga won’t sell unless Flor pays her the entire amount. When Flor offers to make monthly payments and also give her a promissory note, Marga agrees.
*Mariana tries to get in to work, but her key won’t work. Carmen approaches with some of the HTT ladies and tells her that she is fired since she sided with Flor and will be helping Flor with her dance academy.
*Rose and Marga talk. Rose chides Marga for agreeing to sell the house to Flor. Marga tells Rose that sometimes parents do things to make their children fail so they can learn. If they let Flor do what she wants, she will soon learn that her academy won’t work out.
*Mariana is leaving when her fellow workers come to her and tell her that they want to go work with her. Mari tells them that the dance academy has a long way before it will be ready, but when it is ready she will let them know. She will accept anyone who wants to go work with her.
*The hotel manager approaches Chile and demands payment for the room. Chile tires to make excuses but he ends up getting carried out as he grabs whatever he can.
Ep 9, Part 4: Caught and Blackmailed
*Flor tells Mariana that her mother agreed to sell her the house, but she made her sign a promissory note. Flor then asks Mariana to be her partner in the academy…she doesn’t need to put up any money, just her talent. They can be equal partners along with Val. As they walk, they see Chile who tells them he has nowhere to stay.
*Sami takes Val to San Gregorio, but when they arrive, Val is fast asleep and rolls out of the car because he drank the whole bottle of tequila on the way there. Sami chides him because this is he second time he does this to her. He either gets with it or she will turn him in to Octi and tell Flor about his shenanigans. After Sami drives off and leaves Val behind, Val gets a call from Flor who tells him that Chile was thrown out of the hotel; he is now at Mariana’s house, but Flor doesn’t think they should abuse Mariana’s generosity. Flor notices Val’s slurred and nonsensical speech. She knows he is drunk and tells him that he’d better sober up because she wants nothing to do with a drunk. After she hangs up, Flor tells Mariana that men tend to become their true selves after marriage; she hopes that is not the case with Val.
*Val walks down the road and flags down a car for a ride. It happens to be Oscar, Teo’s dad, whom Val thinks is an angel sent from heaven.
*Chile walks around Casa Rosa as Mariana and Flor clean and sweep. Chile doesn’t like it, but Flor tells him he can keep an eye on the place at night. After Chile complains about the bugs and lack of a jacuzzi and other amenities, Mariana assures him that he can go to her house and bathe there.
*Mariana and Flor walk outside. Flor thinks she went too far with Chile, but Mariana assures her that Chile will understand that they need their space. When Flor brings up that they are invading Mariana’s space, Mariana assures Flor that she is welcome to stay with her as long as it takes. Mariana then tells her where Aure works and what he does. Flor thinks that Aure is at least making an effort…if he would want to cheat on her, he would do it regardless of where he works.
*Chile is alone at Casa Rosa when Valderrábano approaches him and talks to him. Chile doesn’t hear him, so Valde gets frustrated and starts yelling. Chile hears something and asks if someone is there. Valde speaks to him normally, but Chile doesn’t hear him anymore. Valde loses it and starts banging the doors and yelling out Chile’s name. When Chile sees the doors banging and hears his name being called out, he looks like he is about to pee in his pants.
Thank you for your recap, Rgv Chick!
So the wedding is complete, they were pronounced man and wife. Seems a bit early in the story, right?
The *youknowwhat* will hit the fan when everyone finds out about this wedding. Surely someone will try to have it annulled. Beto has no clue what life will be like once he is financially cut off, and we just know Don Louse will do that.
Oh wow, so Margarito has a tendre for Damiana, too? He seemed quite upset about the move to Baldo's house.
Beto showing up in a sport coat to "help" with the move just cracked me up. We never saw him lift a finger, either. Rich boy only knows Two Men and a Truck instead of DIY. Gah!
Andy - I'm with you on maybe someone needing a rare blood type donation, or something that Marina has to donate.
Glad to see Damiana is improving.
RGV--Excellent coverage of a happy episode. Probably the last one we'll have until the end.
Doris--Had to laugh at your comment on Two Men and a Truck. I remember the DIY + Two men and a Truck moving out of a third story walk-up apartment full of kid stuff and furniture to a rowhouse where the parking lot didn't extend to the inner court where my house was. My poor daddy.
Beto could have at least rented a wheelchair. It was unconscionable for him not to take that precaution. None of those guys had enough heft to lift her and carry her to the truck.
Lino had better be careful or he might be tagged as a stalker-peeper.
Doris and Susanlynn--
Thank you for reminding us of Doris' major surgery. Her "voice" on Caray sounds the same, so behind the scenes issues begin to fade. So glad you are coming along.
Rgv Chick, it appears events are transpiring at a rapid pace but you are relating the events and emotions brilliantly.
It was a lot to digest and being a visual person not able to watch, I am struggling a bit to comprehend what occurred.
I enjoyed "...her client comes looking for her and calling her as if calling a cat" and many other lines.
So Teo is leaving, Rosa is beside herself, Marga's nastiness continues unabated and Val and Chile continue to get themselves in trouble. Hmmm.
What does Valderrábano have in mind? I wish he were picking on someone other than Chile.
doris, yes, sweet Susanlynn has reminded us of what you have been through. Am keeping you in my prayers. As Anita so wisely pointed out, you've been improving without one word of complaint.
Rgv Chick, I'll echo Anon, your recaps are incredible. But then so are you.
Thank you.
Diana
Diana, I cannotc watch the show right now, so i am very grateful to have these excellent recaps to keep me informed about what is happening. Flor and Val cannot seem to catch a break
RGV-loved your title. Your dedication helps us hang our conversations on to your recaps and keeps the interest going. Thank you, so much.
Diana--Valderrábano is P.O'd at Val as well. He ought to be P.O'd at Cassy, who did the actual shooting, but she's in jail. He's a prankster and I think he's picked out his mark in Chile. Val is just as much a prankster as he is, so his pranks won't have the same effect on Val.
I was tickled by Chile, lying on the couch, asking Flor and Mariana when dinner was going to be served because he was hungry.
Aure is heading for big trouble with his boss, the woman he loves and the woman who means nothing to him but job security. I'm afraid Mari is the one that comes out a loser in this quadrangle. Teehee--I remembered Octi's embarrassing moments of revelation trying to explain that it was his friend's "little friend" who'd lost his starch.
Mirada
Doris, "The *youknowwhat* will hit the fan when everyone finds out about this wedding." It sure will; and you just know that our sweet heroine is going to get the worst of it. "Rich boy only knows Two Men and a Truck instead of DIY. Gah! Had to LOL at that one, too!
Anita, "None of those guys had enough heft to lift her and carry her to the truck." I felt so bad for Damiana; she looked like she was quite uncomfortable. You'd think Beto, being the doctor he is, would have thought of that wheelchair, but noooo; they have to make things more dramatic.
OT- Always thoughtful Susanlynn, I too thank you for reminding us about Doris's recent surgery; and Doris, I'm glad you are on the road to recovery and will be on the roads soon. With the way you have been writing, there is no indication that you aren't thinking straight; your humor is a good as always.
Diana, things are definitely moving at a very fast pace. I thought maybe they had sliced two episodes into one again, but they didn't! I'm a visual person too. Someone is uploading the episodes onto Youtube, but the sound quality is horrible; so you probably wouldn't enjoy it.
Anita, ITA, Vald'Ghost is taking out his anger on the wrong person, but I got the impression that he somewhat softened toward Val when Val was telling Chile how sorry he was about Vald'Ghost. I think Vald'Ghost is targeting Chile as his mark because the first time Val and Chile talked at the mortuary, Vald'Ghost said/did something and Chile reacted; so Vald'Ghost knows that Chile already has the capability of hearing him. Similar to "Ghost" with Patrick Swayze, don't you think? but Swayze needed to figure out how to touch things and make them move.
Andy and Nina, I just went through all the comments and noticed yours between the two recaps. Sorry!
Andy, "So they did actually get married, wow! But this is a story set in telenovelandia so it can't be that easy." I'm afraid you're going to be right. It's too early in the show for the main couple to be happy. I'm sure Doc, Don Louse, and Su-doodoo will come up with something to split them up...Oh geez, can you imagine if the three join forces...YIKES!!
Nina, "...it Will start to fall apart for beto and
Marina. The beginnings of broken ♡s.
Again. ...But the tn people wants to
Spoil the happiness for us all:-(" You hit the mark! I couldn't have said it any better!
"Vald'Ghost said/did something and Chile reacted; so Vald'Ghost knows that Chile already has the capability of hearing him. Similar to "Ghost" with Patrick Swayze, don't you think? but Swayze needed to figure out how to touch things and make them move". Excellent.
Doubly sorry I'm missing this but thank you for the heads up on U tube Rgv Chick.
"Aure is heading for big trouble with his boss, the woman he loves and the woman who means nothing to him but job security". Very well said Anita!
Monday all. Ack. :)
Diana
Yes, Vald does make you think of Patrick Swayze communicating to Demi Moore through Whoopie Goldberg. I am always looking for signs of communication . I have had a few.
