Caray, Caray!

⦁ At the prison, Elisa's benefactor during her prison stay, she learns,  is none other than Christina, who reminds El that their deal is she keeps her distance from Leonardo, his family and his friends and then Chrissie Baby sees that Leo keeps his job, his reputation and no doubt his sheets warm.  Above all she's not to mention to anyone that Leo helped her to hide from the law.  El tells Chrissy not to let the door hit her where the good lord split her and if she never sees her again it would be too soon.  Chrissy just snickers "--See ya soon." and struts her stuff back the way she came.

⦁ In the barrio, Nieves begs Clara not to leave with Renata Cantu and Sofia.  Clara tells Mama to back off but in much richer terms.  As Ren's car pulls out, Jose Luis's car pulls in.  Nieves explains that  Poor LIttle Rich Girl Ren is El's sister, who just took Sonia,  who was there to speak to Leo to make a formal statement about someone who had hurt her; Ren has rushed the woman off to her house after learning that Sonia's preggers with Ren's dead hubby's baby. (Now that's a telenovela plotline!) 

⦁ At the Serrano Seat of Power, Victoria, having heard Eugenio's half-truths and he made-me-do-it's, has a heavy decision to make.  Ewwy wants an answer.  Does she stay or not?  She knows all about him now and they are just too old to play lovers' games.  Either she stays or they go their separate ways.  At the last second Madam Mule makes up her mind to stay.  There's one caveat however:  no more lies and half-truths.  She doesn't want to make another mistake like she did marrying Augusto.  She thought he was powerful and ruled half the world. including Ewwy.  But, she sees that she was wrong.  No, Auggie was only one more of Ewwy's puppets.  She's now got the man of her dreams and that's Ewwy.

⦁ JL, Ewwy's hound dog, races over to give him the news that he's learned that Sonia is with Renutty, saying she was ready to give a statement to Leo about someone who had hurt her.  "--Know anyone it might be?"  

⦁ Nieves, never one not to want to share, races to Sarah's to give Leo the news about Sofia and Renutty yowling like cats and dogs till Ren realized the woman was knocked up and expecting her dead hubby's kid.  Leo was surprised to hear that Sonia had a bun in the oven.   

⦁ Ewwy says there's nothing to do at this point.  He knows how to keep her under control.  JL says this could become problematic if Leo gets word of the details.  Ewwy says it's not his problem.  Get over to the prison and get Dario under control.  Find out who has come to visit him and what he's been telling them.  And, BTW, what's the news about Elisa?  "--She's in prison."  "--QTH?"  "--And why wasn't I told about this?"  JL relays there was no time and it even took Leo by surprise.  She turned herself in..  "--You tell Dario to retract his accusations immediately!  He should get the message for once!!"  

⦁ Vicki runs into JL as he's leaving Serrano and immediately wants to know if he's there to arrest her.  "--Take it easy, Ma'am.  I'm not here to arrest anyone."  He saunters out the front door.  She races into the living room and asks Ewwy why the officer was there.  "--Elisa turned herself in to the police."  Vicki is beside herself--not an easy feat,  After a couple of no puede ser's Ewwy reminds her that her daughter turned herself in.  "--Not good enough! I don't care who you have to speak to nor who you have to bribe but you get Elisa out of that jail!"

⦁ Over at los Can't-do, Ren determines to do the unthinkable -- she's decided to help the woman that the love of her life knocked up.  Leo shows up at the house a bit later.  Ren sends Clara upstairs to hide Sonia and keep her ignorant of Leo's arrival.  

⦁ Leo informs Ren that her sister went on her own to turn herself in-- which she has done in spades.  Ren, clear thinker that she is, determines through intellectual deduction that Leo has only ever wanted her sister behind bars and now he's done it.  So, discussion over!  She races up to her room to hide her head in the sand.  Leo's not done and says he's not leaving till she comes back down and finishes the discussion.  Eventually she returns and is curious enough to continue.

⦁ Over at Dario's mama's, both Majo and Mama are pleased with the result of their visit to the prison.  Dario, says Mama, will retract his statement, not because of her but because he's stuck in Park with Majo.  Mama Piedad advises Majo to give Dario a chance to make good, but if he doesn't, then just leave him.  Her life will be miserable otherwise.  

⦁ Back with Leo and Ren, El, he tells her is in prison because she refused to recognize or do anything about the illicit art situation.  Now she's paying the consequences.  However, the creep who got her there is Eugenio Serrano!  He's also the one responsible for Marcelo's pushing up daisies--and for that there is a witness.  And, when Ewwy learned about Sonia and Marc's affair he stuck her (preggers--the one time the female of the species becomes a vacuum for food) on a yacht in the middle of the ocean, handcuffed, and left to die of starvation.  He knows Sonia's in the house and he's got to speak to her and to take her to make her statement.  

⦁ El, listening to the rambunctious fellow inmates I believe, thinks back to what Chrissie demanded of her. 

⦁ At the hospital, JL and Theresa decide to become friends and try recuperating whatever there might have been between them for Leslie's sake.  FF>>FF>>  They take Lelie home and have a little celebration.  FF>>FF>>,

⦁ Leo does speak to Sonia, gets her confirmation that he's the leader of the art trafficking gang and that he's responsible for Marc's death not to mention leaving her to die of starvation.

⦁ Fabricio and Ewwy discuss their current situation and Ewwy's plans for the next step or two.  Papi plans to buy off a judge to get El freed.  Fab is definitely NOT comfortable with the direction of this conversation.  "--Welcome to the real world, son."  Fab just needs to go to visit El tomorrow and make her think they're actually moving Heaven and Earth to get her out.  They need her out to keep from losing his investment.  All for money?  "--That's what makes the world go round, sonny boy."  Ewwy pulls out the big guns.  "--You're my only heir. If it turns out this kid is your son then get the kid away from her.  He cannot grow up with that woman." 

⦁ Sonia wants free of unstable Renutty and wants her baby in a safe place.  She will give her statement because Ewwy is a monster who needs to be locked away.

⦁ Majo arrives back at the manse and informs Ren that Sra. Piedad spoke to Dario and he agreed to withdraw his statement.  Ren doubts it; Dario's been so trustworthy up to now, crimina that he is.....  Leo appears from upstairs and Majo demands to know why.  Sonia is giving her statement to the police about Tio Eugenio.  He'll be coming by tomorrow morning to drive her over to the police station.  Majo informs Leo of Dario's promise to withdraw his statement.  "--Ojala!"  (Yeah, they;ve heard it all before--and so have we.)

⦁ The next morning Ewwy gives Vicki the further bad news that Ren has taken in Sonia and is keeping her at the manse.  Sonia plans on testifying about the bidnez.  She knows too much.  It'll be a big headache for both of them if she does.  Why?  Because now Victoria (with her heart of stone) is his accomplice in all this.  

⦁ Back at the manse, Ren and Sonia have a candid heart to heart.  Ren knows Marc never loved her back in the same way she loved him.  That's why he sought out Sonia to get what he needed.  All poor Ren wanted was to have his child.  Oh well.  Sonia says she's sorry and never wanted to hurt her.  The night Ren was waiting on him in their new apartment, Sonia tells her she and Marc were about to run away together.  

⦁ While Fernanda is falling to pieces over the death and loss of her mother. Fab takes Juanito to get the DNA test.  

⦁ At the manse, Majo and Ren are making plans for the day once Leo arrives.  It just dawns on Majo that what Sonia has to say in her statement means that their "Uncle" is really bad news.  No, duh, says Ren and remarks that he deserves whatever he gets.  However, just as they get ready to leave, Mama shows up and wants to play cat versus mouse with Sonia.  Majo and Ren form a human chain, tell Mama what they truly think of her, which isn't much and what there is is rotten.  They manage to keep Mama at bay.  Leo's coming for Sonia soon to give her statement at the Fiscalia against Eugenio.  Funny how Vicki doesn't bat an eye when she hears what her fiance had done to his ex and Marc.  Ren notes it shouldn't surprise her that Ewwy is a murderer considering they murdered her unborn child.  

⦁ Back at Fern's, Fab is afraid to look at the test results so Fern does it for him.  It's all there.  She was not lying.  Now Fab is sorrier that ever.  

⦁ Vicki gives up and races off to give Ewwy the run down on Slutty Sonia's decision to make a statement to the police against him.  

⦁ Later that day Fab does as Papi wanted.  He tells Elisa about how hard they're working to get her out of jail. She accepts it without question.

⦁ Ewwy makes a angry call to JL to stop his brother from getting Sonia to the fiscalia to give her statement against him.  Too late, Sonia, Adriana and Leo are chatting it up on her way to give that statement.

⦁ Across town, Fern gets a knock at the door.  It is The Spurned Long Suffering Wife.  Vicki "comes in peace" and then lets Fernanda. have it right across the choppers.  "--I opened the doors of my house to you while you were screwing my husband!  You will return every cent to me and then I'm leaving you to wallow in the street."
