Caray, Caray!

 Hi all, this is my last recap for this novela and what a ride it has been. i want to thank you all for your patience with me these last few months- my fellow recappers have been THE BEST and I'll miss everyone on the patio!

Random thought of the day: I hope the rats from the other night have a union and I hope the one Olga grabbed by the tail got hazard pay.

Elias has taken Chente hostage, but Chente is not going to let Elias win, he eventually gets the upper hand in the fight and gets Elias to tell him where the kids are- Elias drives off in route to his office to get rid of incriminating documents- bro should have just left the country at this point, but noooooo. Anyhoo, even some of his minions dip because they realize that it's just a matter of time before their boss gets caught. Chente calls the popo and tells them that Elias is headed to his office and has asked his people for a helicopter, he then calls Natalia and tells her he knows where the kids are and is on his way to rescue them, then he hops in a cab and goes to the address that Elias gave him.

Vicente scopes out the building and SURPRISE! He finds Connie very much alive, Chente approaches the situation very gently, he tells Connie that he would like to check on the baby to make sure he's okay- Connie says the baby is perfect, she's his mother and with her the baby will always be safe and have everything he needs- she's just waiting on Elias to come and get them out of the country. Chente reminds her of one little tiny problem: the baby already has a mother who is now worried and beyond herself because her baby is missing. Connie tells Chente that Andrea didnt even love the baby and she (Connie) has loved him from the start. Chente leaves Connie and calls the police and then Natalia to tell her that he found the baby but not Benjamin oh and also her sister is still kicking, the cops arrive and arrest Connie for kidnapping.

Elsewhere, Andrea gets Veronica's text and goes to her house, Juan Gabriel goes with her. Andrea finds Adrian in bed with Veronica and she explodes, she tells him her sons been kidnapped and that she has been calling and texting him all morning, he apologizes but Andrea is over hm, she tells him that unlike him Chente is out there looking for her baby, Andrea also tells him that soon enough he will be under arrest for money laundering, eventually Andrea, Juan Gabriel and Adrian end up in Adrian's mansion, Chente returns with the baby and both Andrea and Regina tell him that he's the father they should of had- this does not sit well with Adrian but both his daughter's let him know that he is dead to them.

Back to Elias, the cops have his office surrounded, they run into the building and Elias is urged to go to the helicopter, he goes to grab a briefcase and is shocked to find it full of yellow roses, he curses Veronica as he is dragged to the helicopter. The cops give chase and Elias instead of jumping into the helicopter decides to stay and argue with freaking Mario- he calls him a traitor and asks how much he was paid to betray him, Mario says he did it for free- just to get the satisfaction of seeing him behind bars. Elias aims a gun at Mario and Omar shields Mario with his own body, he gets shot and Elias assuming he's dead shots himself in the head. OMG, like guys, don't ever assume someone is dead, cause Omar sure wasn't cause he was wearing a bulletproof vest. Samia better sue because there was no reason for Omar and Mario to be with the cops, what the hell, someone make this make sense. 

Samia and Natalia talk, Samia apologizes for the way she judged and treated her, karma is real and now she's paying for the things she did, because her husband is also a criminal and he is cheating on her with Veronica, Natalia realizes that maybe Veronica has information about Benjamin and calls Veronica. Veronica tells her that she does know where Benjamin is but that that information is for sale, she wants Natalia's inheritance as payment for information on Benjamin, Natalia rushes to the bank and transfers 20,000 million pesos to Veronica.

Natalia shows up at the address Veronica gave her and finds Olga with a knife, little Benjamin is in the corner of the room crying his eyes out, Olga is not afraid of Natalia, what is she going to do to her? Maybe by herself Natalia can't do anything but she's not alone, instead of bringing the police she's brought the whole vecindad with her- including a pregnant Chole, the gang is about to take on Olga when she reveals that Benjamin has been strapped with a bomb, they all leave and only Natalia remains, she asks Olga what she wants and Olga says she wants Chente.

The police arrive but instead of evacuating the neighborhood they just let people stay outside at the risk of getting blown up, not only that but when Chente arrives they allow him to go into the building. Oh my god, these might be the worst telenovela cops ever, at least they called for the bomb squad and for a hostage negotiator.

Finally- proving that she is the smartest of them all Veronica and her attorney show up at the police station, Veronica's attorney has drafted a document giving her total immunity in return for the information she has on Adrian. Adrian, realizing he ship is sinking goes into his safe to get the cash and the documents needed to claim Natalia's money when he realizes the documents are gone. 

Sidenotes: Claudio dies from complications from his surgery, at least Tere is now free, also Samia learns that Elias has died.
