Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Lunes 5/20/19 Episode 47: See You In Court
Scenes
combined where it made sense to do so.
Mexico:
Ricardo
told Fanny that under these conditions Janneth's parents could
petition for custory of the girl. She cried. He told her they had
to find a legal reason for her to get custody. That would include
demonstrating to a court of law that she was important to the girl.
Fanny asked whether there was hope and he told her there was. She
trusts him.
Alan
showed Carlos a bank statement showing a large transfer from Jaime,
which was the repayment of the loan to Alejandra for the ransom.
Carlos didn't want to take Jaime's money; he wanted to pay back El
Ciego himself. Alan didn't understand this [nor do we]. It
was Alejandra that Carlos wanted. Alan reminded him that she was
dead and this was over. He reminded him he could not spend the rest
of his life thinking about her. He went on with some sensible
comments but it was as though Carlos wasn't listening. He intended
to return the money to Jaime. He told Alan to do it. Alan picked up
the report and left. Nancy came in immediately and asked what was
wrong. He had a difference of opinion with Alan. Nancy came on to
him but he looked less than truly interested.
Fanny
left the Vega offices feeling a little better than when she arrived.
The kids asked him why this lady was so sad and Ricardo told them
that she had not seen her daughter. Natalia asked if he was going to
help her and he said he was. [As immature as these kids are they
are at least empathetic, which they more likely learned from Ricardo
than from Elena.] Ricardo thanked Carmen and took the kids out
for pizza.
Juan
was having drinks with Roberto and Nicolás who gave him the same
advice he gave Roberto. It came down to whether there was
understanding. Juan realized that if Fernanda would not understand
him that perhaps they don't belong together.
The
kids told Ricardo that they didn't want to go back to Canada without
him. He told them that he hoped that they could return home to
Mexico soon. His work was there.
New
York:
Adrián
and Sofia met with Cristina to talk about taking an aggressive stance
in her case. While Blums may have power, what he did is a crime.
Mexico:
El
Ciego talked with his besties about El Gringo. El Ciego sounded like
he was drunk when he said to gather their forces for the war.
Lucrezia
entered the funeral parlor and saw Fanny by the coffin. She turned
around and told Felipe (her huband) to take Carla for something to
eat. He led the girl back out and Lucrezia went to Fanny to tell her
that she didn't want to see her there. She objected to Fanny
referring to her daughter as “my wife.” Fanny told her that she
didn't care what other people thought. Lucrezia told her that if she
didn't leave she would call security to have her thrown out. Fanny
told her to do as she pleased; she was going to say goodbye to
Janneth and would not move. Lucrezia walked past the other mourners
as Fanny continued to cry.
Gustavo
called Ricardo who explained that he has a civil case that just came
in. Gustavo said he could not connect Carlos to the shooting
although they both felt that Carlos' presence was not a coincidence.
Gustavo said he would continue to look for more information. Ricardo
sent the kids to bed.
Two
security guards went up to Fanny and told her she had to leave or
they would need to use force. She told them that the deceased was
thelove of her life and she wasn't going to leave. Lucrezia told
them to throw her out. The two guards quietly told her to leave and
respect “the wishes of the family.” She pulled back from the two
guards, telling them not to touch her. She walked out, giving
Lucrezia a dirty look. The two guards followed her. Everyone turned
to look. Lucrezia and Felipe went to the coffin and Lucrezia cried.
The
next morning El Chivo and El Cuervo came back saying they had no new
information. El Ciego got angry, saying they were good for nothing.
He wastired of hearing this. He pointed his pistol right into El
Chivo's chest and said not to come back until he had something.
Susanna
asked Juan about Fernanda's case and he told her that he had gotten
her 80,000 pesos but it wasn't enough for Fernanda. She wanted the
app back but when he couldn't get it back for her she dumped him. He
went on to say that she said that they now were too different.
Susanna gave him the same advice as Nicolás, to give it a few days.
He said – perhaps a little too vehemently – that this was it and
it was over.
New
York:
Arian
and Sofia went to Blums' office and were intercepted by Trevor, who
made them stand in a specific spot during this exchange. They told
him they were there to talk to Blums about a former employee,
Cristina Valero. Trevor tried to put them off with the usual excuse
but Sofia told him that they were Ms Valero's lawyers. He told them
to take a seat and someone will come to take them to the conference
room. When that happened Adrián and Sofia were faced with a roomful
of lawyers and no Mr Blums. One looked into the folder for a second
and said that they had nothing to talk about. That there was nothing
unusual about their client's dismissal except for her incompetence.
That they were aware that Ms Valero told lies about this. Finally a
very condescending comment about “I'm sorry you came all this way
for nothing.” He then tried to end the meeting but Sofia stood and
gaveit back in spades that what their client did was a crime. The
lawyer threw something and said that Cristina only told her version
of the story after being fired in order to take advantage of the
company. A wave of attempted insults came and Adrián hit the table
and told them that all their client was looking for is justice.
Sofia told them that this will not end the way they want it to and
Adrián said they will see them in court. They walked out, leaving
the opposition to talk and Trevor not batting an eye.
Mexico:
El
Chivo took a walk and was stopped by two men coming out of a van who
caught up with him easily, as he was in his own world with his
earphones in. They grabbed him and put him in the van.
Lorena
brought Victoria some documents and was impressed with the books she
was working with. Victoria explained what it was about and Adrián's
name came up. Lorena is very impressed with him. Ricardo came in
with the kids and asked Victoria if she could watch them while he was
working on his custody case. She was happy to. Lorena asked if she
could help and Ricardo agreed. They left Victoria's office and she
figured out how to pass the time with the kids.
Michelle
and El Gringo talked about El Ciego. She wanted to go back to the US
but that was not possible at the moment. Someone appeared to tell
them that they had grabbed one of El Ciego's men. Things seemed to
be going their way.
New
York:
Adrián
and Sofia talked on the way back. He said that making this gesture
for a settlement was a formality that would work in their favor.
They now had to prepare their client for the court date.
Mexico:
Roberto
walked in on Victoria and the kids and invited them for ice cream.
She told him that Ricardo had left her in charge of them but he said
she was also invited. Federico cajoled and thus Victoria accepted.
El
Gringo entered and had his goon unmask El Ciego's goon. El Chivo
made a threat or two but El Gringo wasn't phased. He told him “I'm
not going to kill you. I just want to talk.” He obviously knew
that El Ciego was batshit crazy and not easy to work for. He then
opened a bag and took out several stacks of little green pieces of
paper, saying he had lots more of them. And lots of connexions in
the US. He offered El Chivo double what El Ciego was paying him. El
Chivo didn't believe him. El Gringo said all he wanted was
information. He slapped him lightly with some of the money. He'd
give him double what he saw just for answering a few questions. If
he refused he'd go back to El Ciego in pieces.
Jaime
brought the documents to Paula for the demand of payment from
Gilberto. She asked for a pen so she could sign and he told her she
had to learn to read everything first. He pointed out the most
relevant points and told her that if she agreed with these she should
sign. She looked at them and said “I'm sorry, Alicia, but I must.”
She signed all the necessary copies.
El
Chivo speculated that this could be a trap. El Gringo told him it
wasn't or he would already be dead. He was willing to negotiate. El
Chivo asked for double the offer and he agreed. He then got the
information he wanted regarding where El Ciego smuggled in his goods.
He asked how El Ciego has managed not to get caught so far and El
Chivo said “He has a lawyer for that.” El Gringo brought forth
some more cash and asked for the lawyer's name.
Ricardo
and Lorena went to Lucrezia's home and introduced themselves. She
let them in and said she had nothing to talk to them about. Ricardo
said they were there to discuss Carla, since her mother and their
client had lived in a conjugal relationship. Lucrezia said that this
was pecado and that her daughter had been a “normal” woman
before meeting their client. She refused to allow her granddaughter
to be near “this pervert.”
Roberto
made another attempt at talking to Victoria about their
misunderstanding while the kids got the ice cream. She refused. He
wanted to take her out to dinner, but she refused again. The kids
came back with four ice cream cones and things looked normal [but
most likely are not that yet].
Ricardo
and Lorena tried to get Lucrezia to understand the emotional impact
on Carla. She replied that she was devastated at losing her daughter
and that the one thing she could do was to “save” her
granddaughter. She said that lawyers were only interested in their
fees and in that case they had nothing to talk about. Ricardo said
this was not the case. “We'll see you in court.”

I had thoughts like that, too. I also wonder what the child actress thinks at the end of a workday.
So, did El Chivo rat out Carlos or not? Since Nancy got him out of the slammer once she's also in danger here.

I just remembered something. The kids were hungry for Mexican food because there isn't much of it in Canada. Some friends of mine had to move there when the man's parents started becoming ill and when they visited New York they wanted Mexican food because that didn't exist where they live. There are a couple of good places for it in my nabe.
Where is everybody?

Yesterday just got away from me UA. No time to check in and didn't get to see the episode until dinner time. These stories are frustrating because I find it hard to believe that hard-working lawyers can just merrily babysit Ricardo's toddler teenagers any time he requests. They're in a high-powered law office seems more like a social club/day care center. And for some reason, especially annoyed with the Alicia-Gilberto home embargo story and also the lesbian couple who never married in spite of having a child. Turning into a cranky old woman I guess! But always enjoy your superb, well-crafted recaps.
The Alicia/Gilberto story bothers me, too because she is so stupid. How does Paula put up with that?
For all their immaturity Ricardo's kids are well-behaved and good-hearted. They must be easy to supervise.
The story of the lesbian couple is definitely a PSA to gay couples to get married if they have children or significant a$$et$ so that disapproving parents/grandparents can't mess things up. As soon as I saw them and that one had mysterious headaches I immediately thought that they were not married and that this would be the main problem in the custody suit that was waiting to happen.

Thanks, UA. I'm all caught up now.
ITA about the lesbian couple not marrying. With such mean, intolerant in-laws, getting legally hitched when they could should've been first on their list.
Paula even thinking "I'm sorry, Alicia, but I must" ticks me off. Alicia is a ditz and didn't know Gilberto would run off, but she did know his business dealings were shaky or he never would've asked her to help him get Paula into it.
I get nothing from Ric and Sofia together and the foursome with the kids was a snoozefest. Ric and Ale were better. But I do like Sofia going after Blume.
I like Juan and Fer together, but she's too quick to dump him when she's upset and he is soooo stoopid with Tatiana. I used to think Tatiana liked Juan a bit, but now I see her rolling her eyes when he's not looking. This is all about getting to his income.
And where is Javier? More Javier please.

Thanks, UA. I'm a little over halfway through this episode, but trying to get current and read the comments, too.
Re: "He [Juan] said – perhaps a little too vehemently – that this was it and it was over [with Fer]. Maybe a sugar plum like Tatiana was dancing in his head.
I think Alicia, FWIW, was duped by Gilberto into marrying him. She was probably jealous of Paula and her unseen boyfriend + her good relationship with an important man like Jaime as well as seeing Lourdes form a bond with another important man like Alonso.
She wanted to be in a relationship and this man offered it to her. I don't remember her seeing Gilberto in the first Season, but I may be wrong.
In any case, once he took off to work his "investments" and didn't return Paula's phone calls, she should at least have been suspicious, but she consistently supported and defended him, thus losing precious time that Ale and Paula could have had.
Niecie--I want me some more Javier, too. I can't get over his performance as a taciturn, lone-wolf kind of attorney, but am enjoying him whenever he's on and keeping Sofia at an arms length.

Good recap UA. These stories are getting intense.
That grand mother says she's gonna protect her granddaughter. It seems that she may have known her daughter was a lesbian and she didnt want to hear it back then either, so she's gonna What? protect her granddaughter from the world? Good luck granny.
That blum guy is disgusting.He reminds
Me of someone just like him who shall remain nameless. I Hope They clean his
Clock and pour acid on It.
Alicia ain't to bright, she married a
Con man.
Carlos n nancy, what a hot mess.
Alan, use your imagination.
El ciego, also use you imagination. And then run. Fast.
Where is Javier. I like the roughness of his character. I think he's perfect for sofia. But the writers don't know that yet.
Ok I'm caught up now. I actually didnt
See this last night, I forgot it was on.
Thank you Urban.
