Caray, Caray!

 Here is a quick outline of last night's episode, I had a draft written but I forgot to save it so I'm kind of writing this from memory and from some quick notes I had. 

Juan threatens Mr. Henry to ruin him and Pedro seems rattled for real, too. I mean, calling Juan's mom a prostitute also concerns him, so... Juan wonders who told Henry about their mom. Pedro plays dumb.

They talk about Sara, but Juan makes it clear that as much as he loves his brother, he will never give up on Sara for him - he can ask him anything, but that. Pedro pretends to be mortified over his feelings, he's trying to keep them in check the best he can. Poor tormented soul...brings a tear to my eyes.

Julieta "warns" Simon that Sara is a very very bad woman, she is sleeping with both Juan and Pedro at the same time, trying to turn one brother against the other. Simon belives her, but to his credit, points out that Julieta was playing with Juan, too, hiding her past with Mateo. Pot, meet kettle. He practically drags her out.

Simon and Sara get into it BAD over who deserves the Del Monte name more. Lucas and Adela witness how Simon humiliates Sara, calling her an hypocrite, the so called women defender who is sleeping around - even Lucas might feel tempted one of these days. He states loud and clear that she and her mother are the worst of the worst. Calls her a prostitute several times, winning a slap from Sara, while Lucas tries to defend her the best he can. Simon tells Lucas he was a witness to a confrontation between their mom and Deb and knows that Deb asked Catalina to give Severiano a divorce. He blames Deb for causing his mom's premature death. Sara wasn't aware of any of this, but Simon is so high on his hate, he isn't listening to Sara's attempts to defend herself. 

And then he really crosses the line, by dragging Sara out of the house in the middle of the pouring rain and shoving her in the mud. Feeling humiliated beyond belief, Sara has her Scarlet O'hara moment: "As God is my witness, I will never forgive you for this! And I will never leave the house!"

Lucas calls him a monster, but Simon blames it all on their father. 

Julieta accuses her mother of being selfish and raising her and her sisters to be exactly like her. Always insisting she marries well, Julieta could never truly talk to her, share her real feelings. For once I'm cheering for Julieta to keep talking. 

Sara goes to cry in the chapel. As Adela watches, she pours all her sorrow in front of her father's ashes. All she ever wanted was a family, their love, but now all that she feels is hate. Adela tries to comfort her, but Sara feels so much rage right now, for her father and for Simon - she decided she's done crying, they will never accept her as part of the family.

Later, after a well deserved shower, Sara is remembering Simon's humiliation and her promise to make him pay. Adela comes to check up on her and Sara allows herslef to be vulnerable with the older woman. Adela thinks she should tell Juan the truth, but Sara doesn't want Juan to have another fight with his brothers; she will deal with this problem. 

Paloma makes another attempt to change Simon's opinion about Sara, but it's in vain. When he hangs up he remembers how Severiano was opposed to his relationship with Paloma.

Deb arrives just as the brothers sit down for dinner. She pushes all of their buttons again, like she does every single time, but then Sara arrives and Juan realizes something is wrong with her. Lucas tries to tell Juan what happened, but Sara stops him. Pedro and Juan tell the others how bad the meeting with Henry went. Lucas thinks Sara's idea of the live video was very good, Deb is impressed by how nice he speaks of her daughter - be careful not to fall in love with her like Juan and Pedro did (best moment of the episode, I laughed out loud).

Sara can't deal with the tension anymore and asks her mother to leave the table. Simon is upset Pedro also likes Sara, accuses her of playing with everyone. She ends up leaving the table, too, after Juan gets mad.

Mateo sends Julieta another message, promising to love her forever. Later he pays her a visit while very drunk, waking up the entire family. Bertha, who had tried to speak to Julieta about the Seniorito Mateo, receives him and the scene is kind of funny, but Mateo is so lame, he tells Juli he cheated on her.

Later Sara and Simon talk alone. Sara accuses him of being a macho. She tries to tell him that she knows how he feels, because she has suffered a lot as a child, too. She has traumas to get through, also. And no, she won't tell Juan the truth, because she's not like him. 

Then Sara scolds Deb for her relationship with Prospi and for her so called investment in his company. Sara adds that many things will change and tells Deb what Simon did to her. Deb hugs her! She is shocked and pissed.

In the study, the brothers keep fighting about Sara again. Lucas wants to make another live to clarify everything. NO! Juan says.

Simon tells the others Irma is alive, Salvador lied about her being dead. Pedro is "happy" another one of their father's lovers is around. Simon says he can't think about this if he wants his relationship with Paloma to work, especially since they are getting married next week.  

Pedro asks Simon if he thought about the possibility of Paloma being his sister, which makes Simon remember how much Severiano disapproved of his relationship. Haha, having Paloma as a step sister would be poetic justice. Let's see if he's better than Juan then, being involved with one of their father's bastards.
