Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Miercoles 7/17/19 Episode 84: Three Blondes
Mexico City: Roberto got
on Adrián's case for having concealed his green-card marriage and
warned him not to mess with Victoria's feelings. Adrián asked who
Roberto was to appoint himself in charge of this. Roberto cited the
usual reasons. Adrián finally told him that the reason for Debbie's
visit was their divorce. Now that he is free yes, he intended to
begin a relationship with Victoria, who was aware of all this. He
further told Roberto that Victoria can take care of herself and
didn't require his protection or anyone else's. This made it obvious
to him that Roberto was in love with Victoria. Roberto said that it
was none of his business. They argued about each other's honesty,
ending with Roberto repeating his threat on his way out.
Juan told Manuel that Adrián
wanted them to accompany him to San Diego for the case. Manuel got
excited to the extent that someone told him to keep his voice down.
He was thrilled at the opportunity and how he thought this would
impress Lorena. Juan told him to calm down a bit.
At lunch Carlos told Michelle
about Alan stealing from the firm. She said she couldn't believe any
family member could do such a thing and offered to help. Carlos told
her that listening was enough. When he kissed her she looked over
his shoulder at her brother's right-hand man, who was watching them.
Juan and Manuel went into
Adrián's office to discuss the case.
Carlos asked Michelle how her
business was doing and she said it was going well. He asked her if
she was alright. She said she was and excused herself to go to the
rest room. Her brother's thug went down the stairs and continued to
watch her. She paused near the rail and called her brother to demand
to know why he was tailing her. He gave her the usual excuses and she
told him to call off his dog or she would raise a ruckus that would
bring the police. She waited long enough to see the man answer his
phone and leave (His name appears to be Kevin.)
Adrián told Juan and Manuel they
needed to research their client to make sure that there were no other
arrests, especially for human trafficking. This was the most likely
charge that would be brought against him. They needed to show that
their client was squeaky-clean. Juan asked what they would do if
they learn otherwise. Then their client would have to plead guilty
to something. They needed to gather all their information in
preparation for the meeting.
Michelle was in a better mood
when she returned to the table. Carlos did not suspect that anything
was wrong. They kissed and got back to lunch.
Tatiana called Juan to remind him
he had a surprise for her. He told her he was busy at the moment and
asked where she was. She was just leaving work to go home. He said
he had another surprise for her and he would see her later at her
place.
Gustavo went back to the scene of
the murder and took more photos with his cell phone. He did not know
that Lorena had followed him and was watching from her car. Gustavo
stopped a young man who was passing by to ask questions about the
place, but he said he knew nothing and thought it better he didn't.
Lorena drove out before she could be seen. [Someone should give
her a very stern lecture on this.]
Ricardo and Sofia worked together
in her office on Benjamín's case. He was getting emotional and
Sofia reminded him that he needed to keep a cool head about the case.
They could all breathe more easily once Alejandra's killer was
found.
Tatiana was going down the stairs
from her apartment when Juan called her to say he was almost there.
She exited the building and he pulled up in his new car. She was
thrilled to pieces, talking about how he deserved it after all his
hard work. They got in and headed to a restaurant. [Who else
thinks he should have waited until after the San Diego trip to pick
it up? My gut says something is going to happen to it while he's
gone.]
Sofia talked about how Ricardo
helped everyone else but now needed help himself. She wanted him to
know he wasn't alone. He seemed to appreciate that very much. They
almost kissed, but backed off. She picked up a document and saw the
reference to the video that outed Benjamín as having taken dirty
money. She said that it could be open to interpretation. Ricardo
didn't think so. Sofia said that if it was they could get Benjamín
out or get his sentence reduced. They had a chance at nullifying his
sentence due to insufficient proof for federal court. [Someone
please clarify or elaborate on that if possible.]
Adrián visited Victoria in her
office to invite her out for dinner. She declined his offer. He
explained he would be away for a few days on a case in San Diego. He
took her hand and asked her politely whether there had been anything
between her and Roberto. He released her hand when she made a fist.
Tatiana stood up in the shotgun
seat while Juan was driving with the top down. She was excited about
this. She was just as excited when he told her he was going to try
his first case in the US. Of course, the first thing she thought of
was of him being paid in US dollars.He said he wasn't sure of that,
only that he appreciated the vote of confidence.
Victoria did not want to talk
about this. Adrián said he didn't want to pry but Roberto had said
not to hurt her. She was not surprised. She explained that she and
Roberto had always been close and that there was a moment when
something might have happened. But nothing did and she decided it
was better that way. Adrián wondered whether Roberto was one of the
men who had hurt her and he is now having a guilt attack about it.
Tatiana began talking about them
taking a trip together to Vegas. Juan said they could plan that when
he got vacation time. [Obviously he is now color-blind so as not
to see the serious red flags all around him.] She mentioned
Acapulco [Where was she when that place went all to hell?]
Victoria said that there had not
been a romantic relationship between her and Roberto; they were
friends and colleagues but nothing more. Adrián told her that when
he was talking to Roberto before he detected a hint of jealousy. She
then told him that this was why she didn't get involved. He made one
last bid to get her to give him a chance because he would never hurt
her.
Ricardo and Sofia continued to
talk about getting over pain. [FF]
Benjamín and Ramiro met. Ramiro
blamed him for his incarceration. Benjamín tried to get him to tust
him, but failed this time.
Juan went home and tried to talk
to Susanna. He didn't like being on the outs with her. She told him
she didn't either but wanted him to make good decisions. She didn't
like seeing him with Tatiana, whom she blamed for Fernanda breaking
up with him. He told her that was not the case, that Fernanda had
issues before Tatiana was a factor. Susanna said that she was sure
that Tatiana would be the perdition of any man. Juan swore that
Tatiana had nothing to do with that. He was simply looking to
improve himself. Susanna insisted that this doesn't have to be done
with money. He told her that it was just that they could now have
things they couldn't before. He told her about his next case and she
started to cry. He was getting into things she didn't understand.
But she was proud of him.
Michelle ordered Kevin out of the
room and confronted her brother. They had the same argument. She
pointed out that she managed the US business on her own and he said
she did a poor job, as she was doing now. After she walked out he
ordered Kevin to start following Carlos in the morning. He wanted to
know where he lived, what he does, and especially if he was with
Michelle.
Ricardo looked sadly at a photo
of himself with Alejandra.
The next morning he visited
Benjamín who told him that Karina had never come to see him and he
had not seen his son. He didn't want him to know he was in prison
but didn't want to be forgotten or forsaken. Ricardo told him he
needed to understand that this isn't easy for Karina. Benjamín said
that this was why he needed to get out, to recover his family. [Fat
chance.] Ricardo told him that they had been reviewing his case
and they thought they might have something. He showed hiim the
document, then told him that if he had nothing valuable about Ramiro
Dorantes, he can forget about this. Benjamín said he would need
more time, as Ramiro was difficult. He then had to remind Ricardo
that he (himself) was a great lawyer, “As good as you” and that
he deserved to be freed. Ricardo told him to do what he had to to
get information out of Ramiro. He shook hands with him, but
reluctantly.
Alonso told Lourdes about the
Aguirre case, adding that he was sending Manuel so he could learn
about international cases. That he reminded him of himself at the
same age,with the same attitudes and habits. He asked Lourdes about
her youth and she told him that she doesn't like to talk about it
because it was a difficult time in her life.
San Diego: The lawyers
met with Jorge's parents. Adrián explained they would need to meet
with their son. They asked if they could pay a fine but he told them
that in that state there was no fine for this. Armando was very
upset. Juan assured him they would do everything possible. Cecelia
said that she knew her son had broken the law but he was a good
person who always helped people. How is it that authorities don't
understand that? Armando said that his son was young with a whole
life ahead of him. He didn't want him to lose it all.
Lourdes explained to Alonso that
she had been orphaned and had to work hard. He said that was
admirable but she also said she had been very vulnerable and that
there were always people who take advantage of that. Alonso kept
listening, telling her that she had worked her way up, etc. That he
admired her the more and that he loved her. She told him she loved
him, too.

UA--Either I fell asleep before the end, or the scenes with Jorge's parents wasn't broadcast. If the latter, me thinks, Uni has gotten out its shears and is madly looking for stuff to snip.
It seems we are getting two steps forward and 1 1/2 steps backward on the "personal" cases of the characters. Whatever Etapas Culminantes means, I fear we WON'T get a resolution to all the relationships that are on the edge of becoming culminante (Michelle/Carlos, Victoria/Adrian/Roberto, Juan/Tatiana/Mami)
And just now we have some background on Lourdes? At this late date? I thought she was just there as an ornament for Alonso, to show he was still a viril man.

Urban A,
Fabulous recap and much dedication behind all of your efforts.
I believe the word fianza in this instance means BAIL.
No BAIL is posted in cases of this nature.

Thanks, Urban.
He was thrilled at the opportunity and how he thought this would impress Lorena. Juan told him to calm down a bit.
Juan used to be the one gushing like a school kid around the Vega lawyers. So it’s funny that now he’s the one telling Manuel to tone down.
I’m guessing someone from Lourdes’ sad youth is about to pop up and a new law case will be fired up.
I like Fer. Even if she doesn’t wind up with Juan, I’d like to see what she’s up to.

I learned a few minutes ago, it was my fault I missed the last few minutes.
See you all around in about 10 days.

What do y'all think?
Who is the stupidest Vega lawyer?
Who is the smartest Vega lawyer?
You can include Jaime, Carlos, Alan, and Nancy should you so wish.

The smartest is Alonso because he keeps a cool head in a crisis and makes sure he and everyone else does their homework.
The stupidest is Alan because Carlos had been cleaning up his messes since school and because he never seemed to realize that there is no such thing as a perfect crime.

Good question, Victoria. I agree with Urban's assessments. For most of the lawyers, they're either book-smart, emotionally smart, or neither.
Ricardo is (and Alejandra was) emotionally smart for their clients. The only other lawyer who is even close to being smart both ways is Adrian.
