Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Miercoles 4/3/19, Episode 16: Discussion Page
Sonia
was still determined to believe Rafael guilty. Ricardo and Adrián
went back to the office to prepare for court. Roberto told them about
Julio's confession and they told him that they had the real name of
Rafael's seducer but not her current address. Roberto suggested that
they prepare for court while Manuel and Juan looked for Mónica.
Ricardo stopped by Alejandra's office to tell her they would go to
dine after he prepared what he needed for court the next day.
Roberto
and Juan visited Rafael in the jail to find out more about Mónica.
He told her that she had talked about getting a special medication
but he could not recall the name of it. In the meantime Ricardo
and Adrián discussed their defense strategy. They needed to present
Rafael as Mónica's victim. They had text messages that could be
interpreted this way but needed a motive, finally concluding that a
mother is capable of doing anything for her child and a besotted man
is capable of committing murder for her. What they needed but didn't
have was the time to find her.
Rafael
talked about finally dating her and feeling better. She had first
revealed to him she was married the first time they had
vo-di-oh-doh-dohed. There were marks on her body that looked like
evidence of violence and she said that her husband did it. He had
resolved then that he would stay with her. They always met at the
same hotel, which he identified. The frequency increased after a
while and she claimed she told her husband that she was going to the
gym. She arrived once with a black eye (which looked more like
she faked it with eye shadow), saying that her husband almost
killed her and he would kill him if he caught them together. She
said that the only way to get away from him would be to disappear.
She then fled. A few days later he obtained a pistol, waited in the
parking garage, and killed him. He tried calling her but she did not
answer. He had killed for her but couldn't deal with the guilt, so
he had turned himself in.
Sofia
arrived at her mother's house to find the kitchen filled with smoke
and unattended. Camila had been lying down and had forgotten she had
a pot on the stove. She asked Sofia about work, etc., and Sofia told
her she would do the cooking herself.
Ricardo
and Alejandra went out to dinner at last. After all that had
happened he wanted nothing more than to win her love. That life is
short and he didn't want to live without her. Besos!
Alonso
told Jaime about El Gato turning up dead. He showed him the photo
Quiróz had given them and Jaime said he never saw his captors but
would recognize their voices.
Sofia
told her mother about what had been going on with her colleagues and
how despite their tragedies they were continuing the fight. “Just
like you,” Camila said. “I think I have a lot in common with
them,” she said. But does she mean Ricardo or Javier?
Juan
ate at home with Fernanda and Susanna and told them about Julio.
Susanna was floored at everything about this. She thanked God for
having a good son, kissed Juan good night and went to bed early.
Fernanda asked him about his new case and he said it was very sad, so
he'd rather not talk about it. They settled on the couch and he said
he was always very calm in her company.
El
Ciego and two of his goons pulled up in what looked like a vacant lot
with a fair amount of junk in it. He said they would need to be
careful because of El Gato. He sent one guy to do something while he
talked with El Chivo. He got him to admit having killed El Gato,
then asked him “Who gave you the order? Did I tell you to kill
him?” “No; I did it to protect you.” El Ciego made him kneel
in front of him and aimed. El Chivo begged him not to kill him.
Ricardo
took Alejandra home and it was clear that he wants to pick up where
they left off. Mas besos.
El
Ciego played his usual mind games with El Chivo before telling him he
would get another chance. He was shaking in his shorts the whole
time and replied in a subservient manner as he got to his feet. El
Ciego talked about moving more merchandise and mentioned El Gringo.
He then looked at El Chivo's face for evidence of fear.
Juan
fell asleep against Fernanda, so she stopped talking and stretched
him out on the couch to make him comfortable. Then she kisssed him
and quietly went home.
The
following morning Paula noticed how happy Alejandra was. They had
coffee and she asked her to look at the contract about the loan.
There was something she didn't like about it so she told Paula to
tell Alicia she wanted to talk to her husband about this. If
anything went wrong Paula would be at risk of losing her house and
other things. She left for the office and Paula looked back at the
file.
Roberto
introduced Manuel to Juan as his assistant in the investigation about
Mónica. They went to the last address they had for her. They
approached a neighbor, with Juan pretending to have been an old
classmate of Mónica's. The neighbor said that Mónica was very nice
and had helped her with her accounting. Juan told her that this was
why he was looking for her. His cell phone had been stolen and he
couldn't remember her number. The woman told him that she had moved
away two years previously because her son was very ill and she had a
lot of bills to pay. She didn't have her phone number. They
continued on talking with other neighbors.
Sr.
Aguirre's ex and her lawyer came to the Vega offices and they met
Gustavo and his client in the conference room. Gustavo told them
that he was simply seeking her cooperation in the matter of the
visitation schedule. Her lawyer said that the child is studying for
exams at the moment and can't see her father, who protested that he
had always helped her study. His ex showed herself to be a real
piece of work by saying that he showed no interest in her activities.
He answered that she had kept their daughter from him and she yelled
back that the judge had put her in charge of the child. This caused
Gustavo to yell at her, then catch himself to say that her ex had
complied with his obligations and she had to return the favor. She
tried to scold Gustavo for yelling at her when she was in charge of
taking care of and raising her daughter. She refused to get into a
fight about this. Gustavo told her that she had violated a court
order and that would have consequences. Her response was to taunt
her ex by asking “Has it ever occurred to you that your daughter
doesn't want to see you?”
Roberto
had to face Sonia in court over Rafael's case. He started by
explaining that his client had turned himself in. He then picked up
his investigative files to present. Sonia nastily stated that they
had a confessed killer and there was no need for investigation. The
judge demanded that Sonia take her seat, and then allowed Roberto to
continue. He described the situation and Ricardo began the
explanation of the imposture and Mónica Almazán's possible motive
for the crime. Sonia described going to the address with the warrant
and finding out that the woman didn't live there. Like that should
close the case.
Sr
Aguirre said that this is not true because his daughter missed him.
Gustavo proposed a visit with a psychologist to determine what
influence her mother had on her. She refused, insisting that her
daughter did not want to see her ex. Gustavo stood up, saying that
children have the right to healthy relationships with their parents
and that she was not to prevent his client from seeing his child.
The woman stood up and screeched that the judge gave her full custody
and shouted at her ex “If you don't understand that that's your
problem!” Gustavo said that they would see her in court. Her
lawyer stood up and said in a reasonable tone that they should settle
it between them and avoid going to court. Gustavo apologised to him,
saying that if his client wanted to damage her daughter emotionally
by using her to annoy her ex, he would do what was necessary to stop
it. The other lawyer asked to speak to his client and have a second
meeting. Gustavo said that he sees that she won't change her mind
and that this is a waste of his time. “We'll see you in court.”
He opened the door and they walked out. The ex-wife gave him a nasty
look as she left.
Juan
and Manuel found a neighbor who had helped Mónica move although he
could not remember the address. However, he said he would help.
Adrián
spoke about finding Mónica Almazán in order to get the details of
the crime, of which she had been the mastermind. Sonia protested
this on the grounds that the accused's story is too elaborate. The
judge pointed out that there had been no witnesses. All Adrián and
his colleagues were looking for was more time for the investigation.
Sonia pointed out that the doctor's widow was in the courtroom and
justice needed to be done. The judge adjourned court until she had
made a decision.

Thank you for the page and mini-cap, which is certainly enough. Your writing is awesome.
Lol - Sofia's dinghy mama. Perfect casting of Erika Buenfil. They really look like mother and daughter.

Tonight's might be late because I will be going to the opera.
How many of you watching 10PM novelas do it later On Demand or via recording?

I record it, but record the Eastern Time showing (I'm in California), then watch it around 7:00on Pacific Time and fast-forward through the commercials. Lol

I always watch it the next day Urban. For one, I'm no night owl, nor do I like to watch (or read) disturbing or violent content before going to sleep. So recording these shows works for me and I usually watch midday, the next day, when I'm having lunch. Two birds with one stone.
Enjoy the opera!
And thanks for the synopsis. I had to admit the story of the forgotten food burning on the stove hit a nerve. My rule, for several years now, is NEVER LEAVE THE KITCHEN WHEN COOKING. By the time I sniff something burning (while busy doing something upstairs) I've thoroughly ruined a pot, not to mention the atmosphere! Had to laugh at Buenfil's character casually laughing that off. I find any hint of forgetfulness terrifying since my mom DID become senile in her mid-seventies. However, so far, it is just my older sister who is suffering dementia. A sad development indeed.

Thanks AGAIN for the recap, UA! Have fun at the opera. I have to watch the recording of this show the following afternoon, or even evening, on some days.
If I'd told my mom of a murder, kidnapping and imminent danger at my place of employment, she would not have continued to shovel food into her face. What an odd non-response from Sofia's mother.
When Sofia told her mom that Roberto is lindo, but Javier "es algo especial", was she being sarcastic? Or does she see the sheep in wolf's clothing that I think is the real Javier?
I look forward to the day Jaime recognizes El Ciego's voice. I hope it's when he's with Carlos and they can then put 2 + 2 together. This is one of the more tantalizing plotlines I'm anxious to see unfold.

Since Figaro insists upon being on my lap at random times this recap will not be ready until tomorrow morning. It's also likely to be shorter than usual.
STAY AWAY FROM JAVIER, POP-EYES. R la O and I are already sitting at his table, and there is no chair for you.
Ah Figaro...I have a Kizzie on my lap as I type this. There is no stopping them when they decide to SIT and you're IT. She also manages to get cat hair all over my keyboard. If it weren't for the unconditional love.... (and I've actually developed asthma due to my cat allergies...but...she's family so she stays and I wheeze.)
At our house you can get waited on hand and foot by claiming that you're cat furniture and can't move.
Getting back to our story...
Do Paula and her friends remind you of The Golden Girls? I see it this way:
Paula = Dorothea
Lourdes = Blanche
Alicia = Rose

Thanks, Urban.
Oh no, do I have a fight on my hands for Javier?
Not sure what Roberto is trying to do for Rafael. Get him less time in the slammer cause he was dupe? Rafael knew he was committing murder, regardless of whether this guy beat his wife, and he deserves time behind bars.

Good recap Urban. Thanks much.
Javiar is not to bright. He let this woman talk him into murder. And the fact that he is remorseful about it do
Not flush the toilet. He committed a hanus crime. In some states he'd get the death penalty. I hope they catch her. While she may love her son, well
The woman is not remorseful at all.And
She is to happy about that life ins policy pay off. I'm assuming that's what she was talkin about on the phone
To that man. I hope they catch her and
I hope her son gets the help he needs.
Happy for rick & Ali. Hope it last.
The jury is still out on Sofia. Her ma
Was a pleasant surprise
That case Gus has may not be a good idea. That ex wife is a real bitch. I hope she's not talkin against the dad to his daughter,that would be so nasty of her. Ok it's on. Thanks Urban.

Niecie, you can sit at our table. As long as you don't wear one of those leather skirts, coz that's no fair.
Blue Lass, loved the "cat furniture" comment. That is indeed how it works and the only time I can get a little waiting on. Almost worth the resulting asthma since alas, I am highly allergic to our little gal!
Yes; I often accuse Figaro and Carmen of thinking of me as a barkolounger.
Thursday night's recap is now up. Enjoy.
