Caray, Caray!

 Hi all, below is a quick recap of last night's action:

• First, how cute were the outfits the women wore last night? I loved Natalia's baby blue dress, I have to own Chelo's dress and even Tania's dress was to die for.
• Speaking of Tania, she and Mario go to a notary so that he can transfer his properties to her in order to avoid them being taken by the government, he was also going to transfer what little money he had left to her but he waited too long to do so and his assets were frozen. 
• Tania frets that the government will think she was in on the fraud, oh gosh, why would the government think that dear Tania? Could it be because to everyone it will look like you and your brother were trying to hide assets? As the kids would say, that's suspicious, that's weird.
• Tania tells Mario to run but he refuses to, he is not a criminal and he did nothing wrong. Also, Natalia has his passport.
• Natalia and her daughters leave Mario's home and jump into a taxi but Natalia has no idea where they will go, she makes it clear to her daughters and later to Chente that everyone they know has turned their backs on them, no one will help them.
• Andrea's BIG idea to get out of living in "poverty" is to get her boyfriend to marry her. Yes, teenage marriage is the solution to everything.
• Eventually Natalia makes her way to Chente's home, she explains to him that she and her daughters need a place to stay, legally the home belongs to her and she's a mother willing to do anything for her daughters, she hopes he understands.
• Chente does not understand, he and his wife worked hard for their home and although he understands her position and hates that her husband put her and their kids in peril this is not his problem, she can not have the house. Natalia asks to speak with his wife, she's sure she would understand what she's going through.
• Jose (also known as Pepepepe) shows up with Benjamin, Natalia introduces herself to the boy, God, Susana was so good in this scene. Chente leaves and tells her that when he returns he wants her and the girls gone.
• Natalia speaks to her attorney, he tells her the house belongs to her BUT with Chente living there the only way to take possession of the house is to take it to court, Natalia realizes that she can't do this because she does not have the funds to pay for legal fees.
• Lol, I just realized now that the brother's are named Chente, Jose Jose and Juan Gabriel.
• Chente tells the brothers that Natalia wants the house, Jose Jose thinks that he should work with her to find a solution, it's better for her to owe him a favor than it would be for her to be his enemy. Juan Gabriel wants to use force to get them out but Chente tells him that's not what men do, he's not going to bully three defenseless women.
• The brother's return to the home (this is where I realized the name thing) and Juan Gabriel tries to kick the women out, Chente stops him and Natalia tells him she and her daughters will leave, she understands that he's living through his own tragedy and does not want to make this worse or to stress Benjamin out, Chente offers to find her a room to stay at with Chelo but Jose Jose reminds him that Valentina took the last room. Natalia and the girls start to leave but Benjamin goes to her, takes her hand and leads her back to the living room.
• Also in tonight's episode: Constanza finds out that Valentina is working at the shop, she shows up and demands she be fired, her husband follows her directions and let's her go.
• Jose Jose finds this out and is outraged, he tells Gustavo that his store will no longer be selling him supplies and then get Juan Gabriel to resign. 
• Chelo fionds out that both Juan Gabriel and Valentina have been let go and she shows up at the shop, Gustavo and Chelo have a heart to heart, he tells her that Constanza owns the shop too and Chelo tells him to man up. They declare their love for each other, Gustavo basically tells her he can't leave his wife because she would take the shop from him. His father worked hard for that shop and he can't bear the thought of loosing everything his dad worked for to Constanza.
• Chelo tells him she does not want a ring or the title of wife, she just wants to love him. They make a date.
• Valentina and Juan Gabriel get their jobs back, but Valentina is to hide if Constanza ever shows up.
• Valentina tries to make friends with Olga, Olga tells her it's been a while since she's had a friend, and that should be a giant red flag for Valentina.
• It looks like Valentina has a stalker, I'm gonna name him Scar.
• Olga tells Chelo that she's upset that Chente has not apologized to her for the way he treated her, she was *this close* to moving in with him. Chelos tells her about Gustavo and I don't like it, Olga is not someone you should trust in.
• Constanza is at home with her mom who is doing a card reading, mom tells her that hard time lie ahead for Natalia, Constanza is like "too bad, so sad". Mom also tells her to value her husband or she risks loosing him, Conztanza is all like "please he's never going to leave me", has anyone ever told her the divorce rate?
