Caray, Caray!

Juan kisses Sara. She kisses him back and it’s quite a smooch. Then Juan says he loves her, Sara reminds him he was the one who pushed her away, why did he do that? It wasn’t lack of love, he explains, the threatening messages he received were about her. Sara thinks they should have handled this together, instead he preferred to lie.  His honesty was one of the things she loved about him. Juan says he will keep fighting to show her his love, even if they are no longer together. Sara asks him to leave, in a split screen we see that the talk has drained them both emotionally.

Bryan and Pedro talk about Bryan remembering this is the place where they used to kill pigs. He realizes something is off and wants to leave, but Pedro reminds him about money raise he asked for. Then he grabs Bryan and chains him (?) to the chair, asking him to shut up or else he will burn him alive.

Later we see Bryan with his eyes and mouth covered, Pedro screaming at him because he made him lose face in front of Sara. He is the dueno, his orders are to be taken seriously! Bryan screams, Pedro imagines that Bryan is his mother, says he hates her. Then he starts doing some sort of waterboarding, but with a funnel (don’t know how to explain it better, I’m no torture expert), at the same time threatening Bryan that if he ever opens his mouth again, next time it will be his brother, mom or abuelo suffering.

Julieta tells Mateo she never cheated on Juan and that will always be her story. Mateo reminds her of their last night together (flashback of said night), Juli thinks him remebering it means he still loves her. Mateo says he’s doing his best to forget that love. Juli leaves.

Augusto and Simon are still talking about the accident. Simon says that day has tormented him a lot, if Augie keeps saying he left his father to die it will only hurt him and Paloma. After the accident he only ran because he didn’t have cell reception and ever since then he’s had awful nightmares. And everything has been made more complicated by what Augie has been saying. Simon begs him, for Severiano’s memory, to forget all about it.

Deb tells Dante that she thinks Tadeo has Pedro’s evil genes, they both agree they have to be careful with him. Deb is ready to have him “disappear”, it wouldn’t be the first child to go missing in the world.

Sara talks alone about her love for Juan, she wonders if she should maybe listen to his words. But no, that would hurt her and the company. On his end, Juan thinks about insisting with Sara, too, but then changes his mind, he needs to leave her alone.

When they leave their offices, they meet, Juan suggest they go home together, but Sara doesn’t want to be alone with him. Juan reminds her they will share an office, Sara says that as long as it’s work related, it’s OK. Then she leaves.

Bertha is doing a massage on Rosa, who enumerates all her many qualities. They talk about the company and about the letters; Rosa wants Bertha to help by stealing them back from Deb.

Jess is upset Bryan is not answering his phone, what if he’s cheating on her? Prospi thinks she’s overreacting, they start fighting about the fact that he doesn’t agree with them still living in the house. Jess reminds him his cheating ways, declares Rosa is in charge, Prospi gets fed up and tells her that she and Bryan are leaving the house tonight!

Rosa asks why all the screaming, Prospi says since Jess decided to get married, she has to own it, go live with her husband. Rosa defends Jess, suggests a family meeting to talk about this.

Julieta arrives to whine about the fact that she is not going to get her church wedding, surely Sara had something to do with it. Rosa wants to leave immediately, “solve” this pressing matter, Prospi stops her.

It’s dinner time and Simon, Paloma, Tadeo, Augustin, Sal and Adela are all eating together. Augusto says that everything he thought he saw that day was in his imagination. Simon thinks they should put all of this behind them and enjoy the life they have now. Especially since they plan to have a Simoncito or a Palomita very soon. Paloma says that she’d like to wor before that happens, Simon says there is no need for that (OMG, to tell that to a freakin’ lawyer!). Sal asks if Simon is not aware that Paloma has already found a place for her law practice. No, he was not! Sal tries to cover for Paloma by saying it was supposed to be a surprised, so Paloma announces to everyone at the table that she will start working as a lawyer and her first client will be Rosa. They all clap, even Simon seems OK with the idea. Ha, as if!

Juan comes to see Modesto in Lucas’ room. They talk about Aurora, Modesto is shocked she dared to show up. Juan only wants to figure out what she wants. They also talk about Sara, Modesto thinks Juan should leave her alone, he is about to get married to Julieta. Juan admits he’s jealous, Modesto suggests he make her trust him again, like she once did.

Sara is in her room, remembering Juan’s words from earlier. But then she also remembers that Juan is supposedly stealing from the company? Who to believe, who to believe.

Corni is in the Bar alone, drinking, when Bryan arrives, crying, and shaking, in complete shock. He tells Corni that Pedro del Monte is a monster. Corni brings him some water, which freaks Bryan out even more (sorry, but that’s funny). Bryan says Pedro wouldn’t give him a raise, instead he threw water on him. Bryan asks for some booze instead.

Deb and Dante are still together, they have been walking and talking for a while, they are farther and farther away from the ranch. Dante wants to get back, but they see Pedro get out from his chamber of torture and they hide. Then Dante explains to Deb what is Pedro up to and Deb is actually surprised Pedro would go this far. She wants to go check out the place, knowing the enemy is always better.

They go inside, but the place is empty. Juan calls Dante, who lets it slip he’s at the ranch, with Senora Deborah, who wants advice about the boutique (good thinking on your feet, Dante!). Juan needs to see him immediately.

Sara and Juan meet in the hallway, she wants to talk about him doing “personal” business with the company. And now she has the proof he asked for. He wants to see it and she agrees to show it to him the next day. Juan is sure it’s a mistake, he never stole one cent. Sara says there are millions of pesos missing. Juan swears he will give up the presidency if she has valid proof. They decide to have a family meeting and talk about it. Sara thought bubbles that she can’t understand how Juan can keep lying.

Julieta doesn’t want Rosa to make a fuss about the wedding, even if she disagrees too. But Rosa dreams about Juli walking down the aisle in her white wedding dress. Jess gets upset with all the attention Juli is getting, Prospi says they love them all the same, but she has to start making plans for where she will live with Bryan. Jess whines that she hates them.

Dante hurries to see Juan, Deb meets with Pedro inside the house. He went walking, that’s when he gets the best ideas to fight his enemies. Deb reminds him she is on his side.

Pedro goes into the living room to find Tadeo at dinner. He asks what is going on, dinner with the servants every night? Simon explains they are his guests, Pedro starts mocking them all. Deb arrives, too, sits down, says she doesn’t care about who eats with her. Simon doesn’t want her with them, though, especially when Deb starts offending everyone. Sal, Adela and Augie eventually leave.

Juan tells Dante about the documents Sara says she has, he’s sure Pedro gave them to her. What he wants to do now is make a plan, he always knows what is going on in the company. There is a reunion the next day, he wants to teach his brothers a lesson. Dante promises to have all the documents they have prepared ready (oh, this is getting good!). Dante says Pedro’s resentment towards Juan has no limits. To my surprise, Juan seems to be aware of it. Hmm… does he look a bit sexier all of a sudden?

Prospi and Rosa try to talk to Jess, who is still pouting. Propsi explains that he didn’t throw her out, he wants her to be independent. Rosa agrees with Prospi, too, they give Jess a week to find a new place. Jess whines some more. They also have money problems, but Rosa and Prospi plan to work together, Jess and Bryan should do the same.

Lucas and Alondra are having dinner after therapy. Mateo and Julieta Baby join them, they talk about being a therapist and the progress Lucas is doing. Alondra tells them she invited Julieta (what?) and there she is, all smiles and practically no baby bump.

Deb comes to complain to Sara that the servants were having dinner at the family table. Sara dislikes her mom talking like this, but she’s very worried for the company. Deb is afraid the inheritance is in jeopardy, Sara would rather talk about the Millan company. Deb dislikes this subject, wants to leave, but Sara needs to talk to her. They are interrupted by Pedro, Deb leaves them alone and runs into Juan in the hallway. She tells him she is worried about Sara, who is very nervous. Luckily Pedro is with her to give her some comfort. Hehe.

Pedro tries to get Sara to relax (ugh). Sara says she spoke to Juan about their proof, Pedro thinks now he will have the time to build a defense. Pedro promises to protect her, they will deal with everything in the morning. Sara also tells him Juan said he dumped her in order to protect her. But she doesn’t believe him. Pedro says Juan is a hypocrite, a very good manipulator. And Dante is surely his accomplice.

Simon is upset Paloma didn’t tell him about her plans. Not only that, she has no need to work, he can maintain her. Paloma says she wants a career, that’s what she studied for. Simon says no, you are not going to work! Geez, what a prize!

Paloma says these are different times, but Simon doesn’t want her to work late, neglect their children. Paloma wants to take advantage of these first years just the two of them, Simon plans to be a father right away, like Juan and Pedro (what he forgets os how his brothers' kids have been conceived). Paloma points out life is not a competition. Simon wants to stop using protection and she can forget about being a lawyer.

Dante and Aurora are in Dante’s blue bedroom, wherever that might be. Dante wants Aurora to ask Juan a big amount of money when they meet, she needs to pay him for getting her back in town, but she doesn’t want any money. Dante calls her ridiculous, she needs to obey! He manhandles her, trying to force her to ask Juan for the money.

Dinner between Lucas, Alondra, Mateo and the Julietas is awkward, but they are saved by Juan’s call to his brothers. He tells them to prepare for a meeting the next day. Alondra goes to the bathroom, so the Julietas start talking about Mateo. Julieta Baby thinks Julieta is still in love with Mateo, Julieta is sure Mateo is just using Julieta Baby to forget about her.

When the others are back and Mateo asks them what they were talking about Julieta Baby says Julieta was trying to make her dump Mateo. Alondra is shocked, Julieta lies, lies, lies… Mateo and Julieta Baby kiss.

Juan sees Pedro get out of Sara’s bedroom and kiss her. Juan leaves before he can see Sara push Pedro away. She is very worried about what will happen tomorrow, she can only think about that and about her siblings’ reaction.

Later Sara is sleeping when Juan comes into her room. She wakes up and he says he is hurt she distrusts him. Sara points out he broke her heart and ruined her trust in him. He insists it’s not to late for them, he loves her and can’t live without her. And they fall on the bed kissing… but it’s only a dream. What? So disappointing.

Juan is alone, thinking about Pedro and Sara kissing. Lucas comes home, Juan tells him about the kiss, he admits Sara has the right to be happy, but does it have to be with Pedro? Lucas thinks he should fight for her, then, he obviously still loves her. But Juan is adamant he can’t do anything about it, he will keep loving her in silence.

The next day at Avocados RUs, Juan and Sara are nervous, waiting for the meeting. Pedro is very sure of himself.

Alondra visits Julieta, she wants to talk about what happened with Julieta Baby. She needs to start seeing Mateo like a brother-in-law. Julieta insists she doesn’t care about Mateo, and regardless, it is none of Alondra’s business.

Alondra doesn’t understand what Julieta’s problem is, she has everything that she ever wanted. Yes, she dislikes Sara, too, but she got Juan back, what more does she need? Alondra adds that Sara didn’t ruin her life, her problem is that she loves Mateo and not Juan.

Rosa and Prospi are at breakfast when Jess comes to say Bryan didn’t come to sleep. She thinks he spent the night with someone else, when Bryan eventually shows up, still in shock after what happened to him. They can’t realize he is not well, Prospi asks Rosa to go, allow Jess and Bryan to solve this on their own.

But Bryan only wants to sleep and he’s been drinking a lot, but Jess smells perfume on him, too. She starts crying, he tries to talk, but she asks about the shirt he’s wearing. He says Corni gave it to him, he can’t stop thinking about the night before. Jess calls him a drunk, but Bertha realizes he is not OK. And then Bryan starts throwing up.

It’s reunion time and Pedro tells the others that Juan is embezzling company funds. They all look over the account statements, Pedro gladly explains the documents, while Sara waits for Juan’s explanation. Simon believes Pedro, Mateo asks Juan to speak up, Lucas says these documents have to be made up, it’s not that hard to falsify documents nowadays. Pedro insists the information has been verified and Sara says if this is true, he deserves to end up in jail.

Juan hasn’t spoken so far, but he eventually says he never stole from the company, he always worked with their father for the company. Pedro wants to stand twice, but Juan pushes him back in his chair (LOL). Juan continues by saying this is all a plot to remove him from the company. He gathered all the financial information the company has ever produced and Dante has all the documents to prove that everything is in order and he never stole anything. Pedro says this is a lie, but Lucas trusts Juan. Juan insists he could never do something against the company’s best interests, but knows who would. Henry! Simon and Mateo think they are only blaming a dead guy who can’t defend himself. But Dante has the proof, Henry had a lot of obscure contacts. He was the one who ordered the attack against Sara and Pedro, but he was also planning to attack the company, by preparing these false documents that Pedro received. Pedro insists the account statements are correct, so Juan asks a man to come in. In the meantime, Juan wants to talk to Pedro alone. Sara wants to go with, but this is a talk between brothers.

Adela is playing with Tadeo, making a robot. Corni comes to visit him and Modesto. Deb asks Adela for something to drink. Then she asks Tadeo to be her friend. At least she is not threatening the kid.

Juan, Dante and Pedro are in Juan’s office, where Juan confronts Pedro about his plot. Pedro calls him a thief, Juan slaps him (not even a punch, haha!). Juan knows Pedro was the one embezzling, he is the thief and dad told him all about it before he died (flashback of a talk where Sev makes Juan promise not to tell anyone what he is about to tell him: Pedro has been stealing from the company. But family is more important, his brothers can’t find out, he needs to protect Pedro! And when he’s gone, Juan will be the head of the family; it’s a good moment for him to learn a valuable lesson: the company is worthless without his brothers’ love).

Back to the present Juan asks Pedro if he wants a confrontation in front of their brothers.

Prospi and Rosa meet with Paloma at the bar (since her office is not ready yet). Paloma doesn’t have good news, they will have to go to trial. Prospi says they trust Paloma to help them, he is sure Deb won’t won this battle. Sal arrives with food, he wants to help them, too. They could even have a double wedding, with Adela and himself. Ahh, Rosa's face!

Julieta and Julieta Baby meet in town. Once again Julieta confronts Baby, how much does she trust Mateo? He kissed her and made love to her, too, Mateo loves her! Baby thinks Julieta needs a shrink to treat her narcissism, Julieta tries to slap her, but Baby is not backing down, she’s sure Mateo will eventually get over her.

The man Juan brought explains to everyone that Henry Miller paid off one of their bank employees to falsify the documents that accuse Juan. They have video proof, and that was not the first time Henry was doing this. Juan and Pedro are back and Pedro says he made a mistake, and it is his fault for believing such a lie. Therefore, he quits from his VP position. Juan doesn’t think it necessary, neither do Sara or Simon. Mateo thinks they need to purify the company, to many bad things are happening, maybe Modesto has a remedy LOL.

Juan doesn’t accept Pedro’s decision, he has to stay at the company and remedy his mistake. Pedro leaves, Sara wants to go after him, but Juan asks her to allow Pedro some time to think.

Corni is visiting Modesto, he finally understood what the Del Montes mean to him when he saw how he defended the ranch. Modesto insists Corni is his son and he loves him above all else.

Deb and Tadeo arrive, all friendly, so Corni takes Tadeo away. Deb thinks Corni should thank her for taking care of the boy, the stairs in this house are very dangerous.

In her office, Sara is happy Juan proved his innocence. Bea thinks what Pedro did is very serious, Sara says she doubted Juan, too, she can’t blame Pedro.

Later Sara apologizes to Juan for doubting him, deep inside she always believed him. They talk about Pedro and Juan says he only wants to protect him. Sara thinks he’s a very special man and Juan caresses her cheek. Just in time for Julieta to get in without knocking – is anyone getting flashbacks of the first capitulos?

Pedro is walking in town, remembering Sev confronting him about his stealing. Aurora sees him and calls his name. The woman must have a death wish.
