Caer en Tentación #56, 1/08/18, Lunes: Threats
Chapter
56: Threats
Just
the facts tonight due to minor computer issues
Santiago
was served with a summons to family court for a petition for custody
of Benjamín. He closed the door on the bailiff.
At
the same moment Miriam sneered at Raquel that she was the stupidest
woman to think that Miriam would make this deal with her. She told
her that Santiago was being served with the document at that very
moment. Further that it was a situation of today the baby, tomorrow
the business. After she swept out of the room Raquel looked Rueda in
the eye, accusing him of planning this all along. His response?
“I
do what my client asks me to do.”
Raquel,
having already told him that this was a very low thing to do, left
the room. Andres followed her, saying that he didn't expect this to
turn out this way. Raquel didn't accept this, saying that he is
playing her and Miriam against each other for his own advantage. She
refused to speak to him any further on this and left the office.

Caer En Tentacion #55, 1/5/18: Benji is a Pawn in Miriam’s Diabolical Game
NOTE: Today's episode was all in the present time
Andres tries to convince Raquel to go home to rest. Raquel does not
want to because she wants to stay with Mia. She asks Andres if Miriam is going
to fight for custody of Benjamin. He confirms that she is, but tells Raquel
that there may be something that can keep her from proceeding.
Bebo goes looking for Jose Fumeneces. He finds him and asks him to help
him to prove that Nacho was at home the night Carolina was murdered. Jose tells
him that he made many pizza deliveries and it would be hard to remember but
Bebo reminds him that the night in question he delivered a pizza and he was
jumped and Nacho helped to scare the robbers away. Jose does remember that
night and will go with Bebo to see if he remembers Nacho.
Raquel goes to Santi where he tells her that they found the gun that killed Carolina
and it has a fingerprint that they are analyzing. He also informs her that
Nacho found the possible alibi in the pizza delivery man. Raquel then tells
Santi that Miriam is already starting to fight for custody. Santi goes insane
and says that he will not allow anyone to take Benji away from him. He will do
things his way from now on and all Raquel can do is tell him to check with her
before he does anything.

Caer en Tentacion #54, 1/4/18: The Secret Not Even Santiago Knew
En el Pasado
A tearful Carolina confesses to Damian that it was her father who attempted the violation. He used to fondle her inappropriately when he got drunk. At the same time he would beat Vicente unmercifully. He never beat her. In fact, when he wasn't drunk, he was nice to her. He treated her like a princess. One night he showed up drunker than usual and it was obvious to both young siblings that he intended to attack Caro sexually. Vic intervened. He knocked out the dad and later dragged him away. His body was found in the river the next day. Everyone assumed he fell in because he was drunk. He did it to save her.
At Raquel's house, meanwhile, she and Santi continue their heart-to-heart talk about--who else, Caro. Santi feels Caro deserves someone better than he--he's just a simple man with an ordinary life and an ordinary household. Raq tries to dispel his impression by using the same words on him that three years later he would use with her, "If you could see yourself the way I do, from my perspective, you would see yourself differently. You are a man of great accomplishment."

Caer En Tentacion #53, 1/3/18: Who Needs Therapy the Most?
You guys, am I the only one that gets depressed after watching this show? I feel like *I* need therapy! Below is your recap with bullets:
- Mia is out of surgery, the operation was difficult and she needed blood transfusions, but at least she's not dead, yay?
- Santiago is trying to comfort a distraught Raquel, she blames herself for being distracted by her relationship with him and not paying enough attention to Mia and her issues. Uh, someone needs to remind Raquel that Mia's issues are not something new.
- Miriam is seething, she vows revenge on Raquel not only for the slap but for flaunting her relationship with Santiago.
- Andres tries to tell Mimi that the most important thing now is for Mia to get better, Miriam tells him that the only way for that to happen is for Raquel to be dead.
- Raquel pays a visit to Damian and tells him that he ruined their family and that if something happens to Mia she will kill him.

Caer En Tentacion #52, 1/2/18: The Other Side of Suicide
Andres finds Mia bleeding on the bathroom floor. He screams for Miriam. One look and Screamin' Mimi starts running around in circles asking "--What do we do?" (Try calling an ambulance-Duh!) Later they've called a private physician? to make a house call. He brings up another "S" word: Suicide. (The mental state of Miriam and Family is not lookin' so good when it comes to custody.) Will the doctor allow himself to be bribed into silencio instead of notifying the policia? He's got to get back to saving Mia's life. Leave that for later, ok?
Raquel looks for p.j.s in Santiago's drawers and finds a different kind of pistol instead. Turns out to be Santi's dad's pistol and the only thing that remains from his father and something she cannot ask him to get rid of. He refuses.
At los Becker, Cinthia gives Godoy the keys to his apartment back. She tells him she's changed and will be getting a real job and trying to make it all up to her sister. He tells her what a brave thing she's doing and how admirable she now is. SinCin bats her puppy-dawged eyes at him. She tells him how Laura came by the other day wanting wanton details about Benji and how Laura threatened Raq and the family for not coughing up any good, juicy tidbits. Godoy promises she'll never darken their door again.

Caer en Tentación #51, 1/1/18, Lunes: Blackmail Comes in All Flavors
Chapter
51: Blackmail Comes in All Flavors
Just
the facts tonight due to major holiday activities and minor computer
issues
Miriam
told Santiago “I am here to see my grandson”, which he was
understandably suspicious of. Nicolás' cell began ringing and it
was Alina. Miriam was stubborn, knowing that she was not welcome in
the Alvarado house. Raquel tried to calm things down. Mia took her
grandmother's side, saying that the baby was her father's child.
Santiago did not allow Miriam to be alone with the baby, telling Lola
to accompany her upstairs. Federico was annoyed with Mia, asking her
why she was taking Miriam's side. She answered that it was because
she was her grandmother and because “Our father isn't here because
he's in the hospital and it's all Carolina's fault.” This offended
Nicolás and Mia asked “What does that make us, stepsiblings?”

Caer En Tentacion #50, 12/29/17: De tal palo tal astilla, or in other words, the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree. And in Mia’s case the tree is Miriam.
Santi tells Raquel that it is not that he mistrusts her but he is going
crazy, many things are happening and they want to take his son away. He can’t
tolerate the thought of losing Benji and also losing her. “Benji is mine, I
don’t care what a paper says, and then to lose you, forgive me” “you hurt me
Santi” He tells her he is sorry and that he is destroyed, and to lose her he
would not know what to do. “Sorry, sorry” and then gets close to her and they
kiss.
Miriam says that she will not fight for a son that was born outside of
the marriage. Rueda and Andres try to convince Miriam that she can fight for
custody of Benjamin, and at the same time she would hurt Santi.Fede goes to the Alvarado’s to visit Benji and says that since Benja is his brother that makes them family. Lola says that is not the fact. Fede just says that he had a desire to see Benjamin and that everyone will take care of him like they always have.

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.

- 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.

Chapter
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.

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.”

running him over with his car. Lola goes to him and asks if he is ok. He is

Alina and Santiago discuss Nacho. Santi says that Nacho is

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.

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!
