Caray, Caray!

This is going to be a quick one, as I have a lot going on and I'm writing half from memory, half from some notes I took while watching. Feel free to add things I might have missed.

®️Thank you, Jarifa, for making up this perfect title while we were doing double (and sometimes triple) duty while recapping La Herencia. Oh, good times!....Remember Pedro Montero, you guys? Maybe he and Ginebra should start dating, I'm sure she'd find him quite fetching.😉

Paz and Esteban are both in tears as Paz reports back to work. They talk about Gala’s food needs. The kids come back the stairs and are happy to see Paz, Elvira … not so much. She eventually agrees with Paz getting back to her old job, after the kids insist. Gala especially needs her help.

Gin and Mauro are working out, she doesn’t want him in the office now, she wants Mauro to start homeschooling the kids.

In the very next scene Mauro teleports to Mireya’s, she asks him to leave, but he wants to talk first. He starts telling her about his childhood, growing up in the street with his sister. They had to run away from home constantly to survive. They lived in Europe, but they had a very difficult life.

Flashback to Mauro and Ginebra as teenagers looking for food through the trash, and another one with them being cold in the rain. Mauro tells Mireya he has a good heart, and he does love Samara. He also loves her, but Mireya is afraid of feeling what she feels, she also loves him. He asks her to fight for them. They kiss, but she still asks him to go, she needs time to think.

The family is preparing for the restaurant opening. Abuela and the boys talk about “amor”. There is also some talk about a certain Don Porfirio. Sal thinks the baby is his, he’s going to take care of it. Pepa is worried Sal is not ready for this type of responsibility. Gema arrives asking Sal to join her in buying stuff for the baby.

Nandy and Kenzo are talking about her past as a young boy. She is about to become a woman officially. The public official who has to do the paperwork has some questions that make Nandy uncomfortable, especially when he starts mocking her out loud. Kenzo gets into it with the guy, he gets violent, security has to intervene.

Paz is slicing some vegetables when Esteban walks in. He tells her he is taking Gala to a support group for kids with her problem. Paz is prepping some food for Gala’s died, Esteban has the rules, hands them to her, their hands touch briefly… Paz says she can follow the doctor’s instructions without a problem.

Gala doesn’t want Esteban to miss work for her, so Paz offers to take her to the meeting instead. Esteban is thankful she offered.

When they are alone, Paz admits to Gala that her heart hurts for many reasons. They start talking about Esteban and Paz doesn’t understand what happened for him to change his mind, it’s like he fell in love with someone else. Gala is about to say something, but they have to go now, the meeting is starting.

Cobija is able to walk again, the kids are happy. Sam still misses Paz.

At the No Name company, there is a meeting where Esteban says he feels his work as a general manager is not over yet. The board members are asked to vote. And the winner is Esteban. His first executive order is to give Kenzo his job back. If that the case, Elvira wants Mauro to work for the company, also.

During the group meeting Gala hears some testimony from other girls. After the meeting, she tells Paz everything was harder than she thought. She asks her to confess how she feels also, and Paz says she has so many problems: she lost Esteban, can’t see Samara and Vermin is still in jail. She has lost her faith in men, they broke her heart. Gala doubts but eventually says Esteban and Gin are starting to see one another.

Neither thinks any of this makes any sense, Gin even said they are going to marry soon. Paz tells Gala she only came back to work for her and her brothers, she wants to help them with everything. Gala knows she has all of their support, but she can’t stop thinking about Sal.

Nandy is sad, they couldn’t go through with the paperwork; there is always someone going against her. Some guys make fun of her and Kenzo, so he Kenzo goes running after them. Later Nandy feels bad for making Kenzo go through this. He promises he will stand by her, but this is all still new to him. He was raised in a very conservative family. But he adds they need to fight together, he wants to see the world through her eyes, become the man she needs.  

Esteban tells Ginebra he will never allow her to take control of the company. She is crazy! Gin grabs Berenice’s photo and drops it to the floor, breaking the glass. He grabs her shoulders, Elvira arrives to ask what is going on. Gin’s heel is still on the portrait on the floor. She makes up an excuse about almost fainting and dropping the photo by mistake. Elvira asks if Esteban was getting violent. Gin wants to re-establish peace within the family, they can all work together. She pretends to be worried when Elvira tells her about the sniper attack and hugs her.

Gala comes to see Sal, wants to help him with his work. I don’t get what they are doing, but they start dancing in the street and then they kiss… nope, it’s just Gala fantasizing, while talking to Paz. Sal having a kid is not easy to go past. Paz thinks love can conquer it all, she just needs to fight for what she wants. Gala feels good talking to her, almost like speaking to her mom.

Esteban and Elvira talk about work, but it’s conflictual once again. Esteban wants a truce, and she accepts one for work purposes.

Sal and Gema are buying stuff for the baby, Pepa gets into it with Gema, accuses her of lying about who her baby daddy is. Sal tells his brother he will get a paternity test.

Felipa and her sons have come to search for Nandy (they ask for Fernando when they first arrive at the Roble house). Nandy and Kenzo arrive together. Things get ugly very fast, Mireya and Lupita try to defend Nandy, Kenzo wants to drag Felipa out, Sandro accuses his father of not having money for him because he’s spending it with Nandy. Jeronimo also says Kenzo lost his job because of her, they get into a debate about what it means to be a woman. Kenzo tries to put a stop to it, Nandy never hurt any of them. She tries to explain, but the boys don’t want to understand or listen.

Bosco accuses Gala’s friend of harassing him with her insistence. She calls him a loser.

Ginebra tries to push for Esteban to make the next step. He wants Paz to be able to talk to Samara every once in a while. And then, when he knows everyone is safe, they can announce their engagement.
