Caer en Tentacion #49, 12/28/17: Could This be the End of the Beginning for Santi and Raq?
Epoca Actual
Santi is on the phone with Raquel. He suggests angrily that she is capable of taking Benji away from him and he's not going to let that happen. Raquel is astonished by his attitude. How could he think something like that of her. Santi claims that Damian ruined his life and he wouldn't put it past that family to try. Raq insists she's not like Dam's family and reminds him that Carolina had a major part in this game of betrayal. If Raq and Santi couldn't stop them it was because they were cowards and were blind and deaf to what was going on while those two mocked them. So yes, she's guilty, guilty of trusting someone who didn't deserve it. They hang up on each other, knowing they've said some very hurtful things to each other.
Fede observes his mother while SinCin tries to give Santi a break--having just learned about Benji's parentage. She avers, though, that once Miriam finds out, she will be sure to take advantage. Now, Raq realizes that, too.

Caer en Tentacion #48, 12/27/17: Damian, you are the daddy!
- Nicolas gets a call from Federico telling him that Mia has flown the coop, poor Fede is uber upset but in his place I'd be throwing a party because it's not like Mia is pleasant to be around.
- Nico tells Federico that Benjamin is not Santiago's son, Fede later breaks the news to his mom.
- Lola is a hot mess, she can't imagine not having little Benjamin around.
- Nicolas tells Lola and Santi that he spilled the beans and told Federico about the DNA test, they blow up at him- the plan was to keep things quiet in order to be one step ahead of the Becker's.
- Santiago wants Nicolas to call Alina so that she can find a way to help them keep custody of Benjamin, but Nico freezes and wont call her,
- Nicolas tells Lola that the only one to blame for her anguish is their mother, she blew up their family.

Caer En Tentacion #47, 12/26/17: And The Winner Is.....
⦁ The happy family, the worrisome threesome, makes a great Kodak moment in Telenovelaland. Again, Damian insists that this child is his against Carolina's slight protests. He asks her to promise she'll let the child remain close by and let him be a part of the boy's life somehow and he'd like her to name the boy Benjamin. They kiss and coo till Raquel's call crashes the family party. Raq (late to this party) is excited that Santiago has told her that Caro's baby is near to dropping and can they please reconsider hanging with the Alvarado's. Dam plays dumb ("--Ya don't say!!") and then lies that he's in a bidnes meeting and cannot talk. "--Later, Love." There's more cooing and then Nico calls and Caro explains she's at a different hospital since things happened so fast she didn't have time to get to her own. Santi (sadly, even later to this party) heads for the other hospital. Dam takes his tearful leave of his new loved ones and hides behind a pillar as the supplanted Santi and Nico head for the front entrance and to the maternity ward.

46: Points of No Return
Mostly
just the facts, with only the most important conversations.
Santiago
called his children to tell them that Carolina had a bad night but
will be in the hospital for a night. She had lost one of a pair of
twins and wanted to see the doctor about the remaining one. Santiago
agreed to look for the doctor and then asked her what she meant when
she was talking in her sleep. She told him she had gone to work
rather than to see Elisa. Shew had lied because she knew he wouldn't
approve. There was no argument about this; he went to look for the
doctor as Carolina breathed a sigh of relief in his wake.

Caer en Tentacion #43, 12/20/17: I'll Be Keeping an Eye on You
Who do we know could have said this....
En el pasado
Damian is finishing his lunch with his children and giving them a cock 'n bull story about how he and Raq are going to solve their problems--alone. Mia objects that they should be included as they are a family and have their own problems that need to be addressed. Loudly she says everyone treats her as though she is crazy, but she's not. Dam makes her sit down and stay until they are done so as not to cause a scandal.
Juan's mother, Luisa, shows up at the Alvarado house. She begs Caro not to report Juan to the police. She promises to get Juan psychological help. She tells them that his father beat him. Caro tells her to make sure Juan stays away from Lola or she will go to the police.
Miriam shows up in Dam's office, eager to get him out of the hotel (and unstated, back to her waiting arms and home). He announces he's not going to separate from Raq. Miriam is none to happy to hear that and more when he refuses to discuss his personal affairs with her. She tells him she's not going to let him ruin his life with a fling that's gotten out of hand.
Raq is at the catering office. Andres shows up. He hints that he likes one of the girls working there. Since he can't have Raquel, he must look elsewhere. She tells him to stop sniffing around her office. He comes out and says that whenever he sees her, all desire for anyone else disappears. She's disgusted with him and tells him to leave. He hints about all the stuff that goes on in this place.

Caer En Tentacion #42, 12/19/17: Stuck In A Rut
• Mia’s self-satisfied, seeing that she’s ruined the relationship between Santiago and her mother. She checks with Federico to see if he’s still on board with her plan to put the brakes on Raquel and Santi’s relationship. He’ did his part in telling Mama he’s against her going to bed with Santiago. He’s got a life even if she doesn’t. He doesn’t feel like standing guard over Mama.
• Rueda pays a visit to Alina and threatens her personal and professional life if she doesn’t stop praying on younger boys. He’s going to make her pay for what she did to his kid. (What we’re not sure of is whether Rueda’s son did something drastic after she dumped him.)

Chapter
41: False Confessions and Empty Promises
Raquel
and Santiago acknowledged that they could not live without each other
and broke the kiss, but perhaps not in time to avoid being seen or
heard by Lola, who arrived carrying Benjamín. She excused herself,
saying she was going up to her room. Raquel became concerned about
her reaction, knowing that the possibility of a relationship with
Santiago was not welcome to her own children. She decided to leave,
and he asked her not to.
Lola
had barely put Benjamín on the bed when Juan called her on the heels
of several text messages.
“Can't
you leave me alone?” she answered.
“I
want to see you. Where are you? Where are you right now?” he
demanded to know.
“Are
you crazy? I don't want to see you again. You almost just killed
Bebo. This is insane.”

Present time
Bebo offers to "take care" of Juan if he continues bothering Lola, she does not understand what he is referring to. At that moment, Juan attempts to kill Bebo by
running him over with his car. Lola goes to him and asks if he is ok. He is
fine but is worried about Lola because Juan is crazy, and he may kill her. They
hug each other.
Alina and Santiago discuss Nacho. Santi says that Nacho is
his friend but he has doubts because he knew that Damian and Carol with lovers.
He says he is confused, doesn’t know what to think, he even doubts himself too.
“I don’t know what I would have done if I had seen them in bed.” He Asks Alina
to tell him everything she knows about Nacho. So Alina explains that Nacho
hired her to help Bebo get out of his problems with the law. As they are
talking Nico sees them and is not happy but just leaves. Santi says “what
is wrong with my son?”
In jail Nacho asks Antonio and Godoy why he is being held, “how is
this possible?” He asks if Nacho was in town when Carol was murdered, “yes I
was”, and “did you know about the affair” “yes I knew” and Antonio asks why
does the shovel that was found near the accident have his DNA. “This is a trap
I will not say anything until I talk to my attorney.”

Caer en Tentacion #39, 12/14/17: Mistaken Identity -- Bad News for Gabriela, But What About Nacho?
This is Anita filling in. What she has seen, so far is--
Past Time:
Mia gets her dad's hotel room number from the reception desk (a no-no in my book) and heads upstairs. She happens to see Gabriela at the door to Dam's room number and stops to spy. She has enough and takes off.
Meanwhile, Dam is persuasively working on Caro's resistance to him. She still thinks he's "doing" at least two women, other than herself. He tells her he's in love with her and left his wife for her. She says she didn't ask him to do that. For her, family comes first. He wants them to run away together and start a new life together. She gives in to lovemaking when Gaby knocks at the door. Damian tries to shoo her away and fortunately for his hide, Cristian hears the commotion and pops out of his room. Dam says Gaby was looking for him and got the rooms mixed up. He goes back to Caro. She's done with him. She tells him to go back to his wife and family. If he leaves Raq, she'll never see him again (and how many times has she said that....).
Meanwhile, Cristian and Gabriela have a loud discussion on who broke their swinging lifestyle arrangement. Gaby also wants to know who Dam is cheating with. Cris says to stay out of it it's none of her business. Gaby says Raq is her best friend and has a right to know. She sweeps out leaving Cris with his mouth open.

Chapter
38: Accusation and Revelation
Once
again, just the facts tonight.
Mia
was eavesdropping at the door as Federico entered the corridor. She
told him that their father was going to leave. He leaned in and
listened as Damián told Raquel that this is better for him. Mia was
smug in her “I told you the truth” statement.
Labels: caer
Caer en Tentacion #37, 12/12/17: So Damian might have a little brain damage
The episode starts with the last few minutes from last night, we find Miriam standing next to Damian's bed, she's getting ready to do something terrible, she tells Damian's comatose body "son, son of mine, this is no way for you to live, I always wanted the best for you and you don't deserve this agony (that's up for debate), it's best that you go in peace"- and then this crazy broad pulls out his breathing machine thingy and puts a pillow over his face.
Miriam was smart and locked the herself in the room with Damian, outside of the room the doctors and nurses are trying to get in and Raquel is screaming at her to stop, a nurse has to drag her away from the scene- Mia and Federico walk in on the madness. The staff is finally able to break in and they drag Miriam away, the doctors start to work on Damian and Mia asks "what's wrong with him?"- uh, your grandmother just tried to kill your papi, that's what's wrong!

Chapter
36: The Waiting Game
Just
the facts tonight, dear readers. Almost the entire episode takes place in
the present.
Raquel
watched Santiago escort Alina inside his home. She did not see that
he brought her there to allow her to meet with Bebo with the goal of
helping him. She was outside in her car, thinking of how another
rejection was a judgement on her value as a woman and a person.
Bebo
wanted to find work and Santiago offered to hire him. They went to
talk about it, bith Bebo telling Santiago this would be difficult
because of differences between him and his father.
Lola
looked at Alina, then at her brother. She suspected that something
wasn't right.

Caer En Tentacion #35, 12/8/17: Gabriela condemns Christian for her sins, and no amount of rice will fix that phone.
After Christian walks into the apartment
with his lover, Gabriela argues with him about cheating on her (the nerve). He
tells her that she was doing the same, she denies it and then he says “why
are you dressed like that (as she buttons up her coat)?” She calls his lover a “zorra”
(derogatory name for a woman that sleeps around) and the “zorra” defends her
self. Gabriela tells her to shut up and then walks away leaving Christian and
the Zorra in the apartment. Christian suspects that Gabriella was waiting for a
man, without realizing that Damian the coward is hiding inside. Christian and
his lover leave, and Damian comes out of hiding only to drop Gabriela’s
cellphone in the water in order to get rid of the recording Gabriela made of
Agustin.
Present time:Santi goes to Alina’s office to pay for her services; she tells him that she is going to defend him for "free". She has a personal conflict against Ruedas and will gladly go against him for free. And besides if Ruedas is defending the Becker family they must be trying to cover up something dirty. She then says “I suspect they may be partially responsible for Carolina’s death."
Cynthia is in Godoy’s apartment serving him a drink. She is glad he stayed. He tells her that he cheated on Laura; Cynthia says that “we all cheat because we can become attracted to people who are not our partner.” Godoy confesses that he is no good because not only did he cheat on Laura but he is also the reason why she limps.

Caer EnTentacion #34, 12/6/17: Release Or An End To Mourning?
We get another eyeballer of Raquel and Santiago finally having a bit of sexual satiation. Unfortunately, SN’s pillow talk is muffled due to her unique way of mumbling in such a low baritone that much is lost of the conversation. I do believe that Santi still feels guilty somehow—whether it is the lovemaking or the fact he remained blind to Damian and Carolina’s cheatin’ hearts. Can’t say. Raq is a bit negative and too clinical about what just happened between them. It could be that it has just been a means of release for the two of them, despite their obvious feelings for each other but also that their “period of mourning” is passed, but Santi doesn’t agree.
He cannot forget Caro and what she and Dam did to the both of them, destroying their lives, making fools of them, etc., nor get it out of his head. Raq does think about her past relationship with Dam also. There is no relief, perhaps it is just a momentary release for the two of them after all. They agree they love and care for one another. Oh well….nothing puts a damper on a promising relationship like continuing to bring up one’s past bedtime habitués.

Caer En Tentacion #33, 12/5/17: There’s Always Sex
When The World Around You Is Crumbling, There’s Always Sex
• When Mia and Raquel return from the psych session, Jovita gives Raq the news that she’s got company: Gabriela is there to gripe about Santiago’s poor workmanship and his lackadaisical attitude in getting her kitchen finished. Otherwise, she’ll be forced to take action. Raq reminds her that she’s the one who raced to employ him. He’s excellent, Raq insists and comments that Gabi is simply upset that unlike other men, he’s not kneeling down at her feet enthralled. Gabi gets more than miffed at that and starts to leave, but not before Dam gets home. Gabi whispers in his ear when kissing her greeting that she’ll meet him at his office but not to worry, she’s said nothing to his wife.
• When Nicolas finally arrives back home with the medicine for Benji, Mia’s there waiting. Lola takes Benji to his room. Mia wants to know where she stands with Nico. She wonders why after their steaming the sheets a time or two he’s been avoiding her—and IT. (I think.) He tries to show her he’s sincere, but though the heart is willing, the hamster in his Hayne’s is on strike.
