Acorralada - #25 - Friday 2/16 - Go Grannies Go!!!!
Well, Diana and Max survived the elements and are now getting back onto the boat, which miraculously survived the storm and didn't get swamped with water. Diana and Max are both exhibiting the "high-pro glow" and have completely forgotten how scary the storm was. Ah, sweet love. Their love theme plays in the background.
Aunt Yolanda is chastising Larry for being such an idiot. He needs to step up to the plate and confront his mother about making Gaby sleep in the servants' quarters. The dolt can't bring himself to confront his mother right now. "Suck it up, Larry. Gaby doesn't deserve the treatment she's been getting. Like it or not, she's your wife!" He keeps whining about Pilar and making excuses for her. I never thought I'd say this, but I've had enough of Larry and his sniveling and have zero sympathy for his plight. What a tool!
Max is dropping off Diana at her house. I noted that the Corvette apparently was not flooded in the deluge. Max must have remembered to put the top up. He and Diana are all smiles as he points out he got her home safe and sound.
Diana's happiness is short lived. Just after Max drives off, who should crawl out from underneath a rock but Andres. He tells Diana "Now I understand why you stood Doc Evil and me up."
Andres' is continuing to threaten Diana. She has two hours to show up at the hospital.
Gaby has a brief reunion with Granny. Granny tries to talk Gaby into staying home, but Gaby says she needs to return to the
Max is back at the mansion and facing the Inquisition. Octave and D/M are firing questions at him about his whereabouts all day. He says he was with clients; there was some distribution problem in
Peyote is telling Rene she can't meet him at the bar because of her mom. Rene says there's always something going on with your mom. "This time it's different" says Peyote.
Andres escorts Diana into Doc Evil's hospital room. "How kind of you to visit me," says Doc Evil. Andres says he will wait outside the room. Doc Evil says Diana can't be stupid enough to think that Max loves someone like her. Diana, who truly is stupid (but for different reasons) tells Doc Evil that Max does, in fact, love her. DE – "Do you think he would actually marry you?" D—"Yes, I do. Please don't destroy my life over some lie." Please tell me she doesn't actually think Doc Evil will say "My bad" and stop his blackmailing. Diana really is too dumb for words. Doc Evil continues to threaten Diana and Diana continues to grovel. Enough said. Did I point out that Diana shows up for her meeting with the Doc wearing a very tight fitting top and low-rise jeans with her stomach and back exposed? I guess I forgot that part. If I was her, I'd meet Doc Evil wearing curlers, no make-up, and frumpy clothes. But that's me. Diana really is rowing with one oar.
It's dinner time in the happy household de Irascible. Gaby is sitting next to Larry at the table. D/M says she refuses to sit at the same table as Gaby. "Just wait until your mother shows up." Enter Octave. O—"What is she doing here? Go back to the kitchen and eat with the staff." Lame Larry doesn't say a word. Peyote and Yolanda try to stick up for Gaby, but Octave tells them to shut up. Gaby, who has no self-esteem whatsoever, leaves the table. Max enters the room and wants to know why Gaby is leaving. Octave says Gaby is going to eat with her own class of people. Larry is a loser.
D/M is having breakfast with Octave poolside and gloating about what happened to Gaby at the dinner table the previous evening. All is going well in D/M's little world when----WHAM----up walks an attorney who says Max has filed for divorce. Guess Max has huevos after all!
Doc Evil apparently tells Camila and Sylvie that Diana tried to rob and kill him. Camila and Sylvie couldn't be happier if they'd won the lottery. "What are you going to do?" asks Doc Evil. As if he didn't know. "Run and tell Max, of course!" After they leave Doc Evil tells Andres they may not have gotten what they wanted from Diana, but at least Diana will suffer after Max dumps her.
D/M refuses to sign the divorce papers.
RM (the real Marfil) calls Max's cell phone. Granny DS happens to be walking by when it rings and answers the phone. RM tells Granny DS she needs to speak to Max. "You're both at the house, why are you calling him?" M—"The woman at the house is an imposter. You've got to tell Max." Granny DS is impactada.
Diana is plumping pillows when the doorbell rings. It's Camila and Sylvie. Sylvie points out that Diana's house is marginal. This coming from a pair dressed like a couple of slutty clowns. Yes, they sure know about class. They announce to Diana they know her dirty little secret and are on their way to tell Max. Diana gets this vapid look on her face. Come to think of it, she usually has that look on her face.
D/M and Max are fighting about the divorce papers. Octave tries to put in her two bits worth and Max tells her to stay out of it.
RM is still engaged in a conversation with Granny DS, who just doesn't quite get what's going on. Marfil is starting in with her shrill wail. Granny DS tells Marfil she's confused and puts the phone down and walks away.
More accusations and denials among Diana, Camila and Sylvie. Camila says now she knows why Diana looks so familiar. She was with Max the night Diana was arrested. Diana proclaims her innocence. Diana asks Sylvie what she's got to do with this. Sylvie tells her my cousin hates you, so I hate you too! Sylvie delivers this line with a flourish. Diana tells them they are both stupid. The squabbling continues.
D/M and Max are still fighting about the divorce papers. Granny DS walks up and tells Max he has a phone call. Max says he can't talk right now. Granny DS says the person calling says she's the real Marfil and that the other person is an imposter. Max tells Granny DS she must be mistaken. Granny DS insists she's not mistaken.
The fight among Diana, Camila and Sylvie is escalating. Granny M comes in from the kitchen carrying a broom. She calls Camila and Sylvie vampires and chases them out of the house with a broom. Shouting and insults continue to fly. Granny M turns the hose on them. Go Granny Go! Diana and Granny M share a laugh about Granny's feistiness. Granny calls Camila and Sylvie wet chickens!
Granny DS finally convinces Max to follow her to the phone. D/M is fidgeting. Octave tries to convince Max to stay and discuss the divorce, but he walks away. Octave then walks away. I'm not sure what she says to D/M. Can anyone out there help me with this? I don't know if she believes Granny or not.
Lala and Diego are gossiping in the kitchen about Octave accusing Peyote of doing drugs. Diego says he's not surprised. Lala gives a public service announcement about the evils of drugs. Diego tells Lala that Pancho and Peyote are acquainted. Lala can't believe it.
Diana and Granny M are discussing the incident with Camila and Sylvie. "Now they're going to be mad at me and tell Max I'm a bad person."
Max follows Granny DS to the bedroom. Lo and behold his phone is in pieces on the floor! Octave and D/M (who apparently is cured and ready to run a marathon after a week) are in hot pursuit. Granny DS doesn't know what happened to the phone. Octave and D/M accuse Granny DS of breaking it. D/M tells Granny DS she's senile. Granny DS swears she's telling the truth. Granny DS wants Diana to come back to the house. Did I mention Octave was at the pool wearing some gaudy black necklace and dangling earrings? Now THAT'S pool attire!
Bruno is now plumping pillows when D/M walks in. Guess who broke Max's phone?! Lots of back patting at Bruno's ingenuity. "Speaking of ingenuity, " says D/M. "Convince my sister to stay where she's at and not return to this house."
Pancho and Caramel are at the beach discussing the upcoming marriage. Caramel wants to by sheets and towels for their new life together. Pancho is humoring her. He then asks her to sneak out of the bar early tonight; they have a new shipment they have to move. Caramel wants out of the business because "one day we're going to get caught." Pancho—"Don't say that, it's bad luck. Now go and freshen up." No sooner does Caramel leave than Pancho's phone rings. It's Peyote. Pancho is delighted!
RM is mewling in that horrid voice of hers, about how Debora has taken her place and she's never going to be able to get back to the mansion. Isabel tells her with therapy, she'll be as good as new. "How long is it going to take?" cries RM.
Pancho and Peyote are saying how hot they are for each other. Peyote tells Pancho she's stuck at home because of her mom. "Call me when you're able to leave." At this point, Caramel walks out of the ocean. "Who's that you're talking to?" asks Caramel. Pancho--"Oh, just some people about tonight. I'm firming up the details." Caramel looks cranky.
Granny DS is talking to a new doll. She misses Diana. In waltzes Debora and Bruno who yell at her for telling Max that the real Marfil called. If she says one more word about it, they are going to put her in a nursing home. Debora was waving her cane as if she was going to hit Granny DS. Debora storms out and Bruno pinches Granny DS's arm. Bruno—"Yeah, like she said. Don't you dare say another word about that phone call!" Granny DS cries.
Camila comes to see Max. She tells him she has some info that's going to make him forget all about Diana.
F/G comes to Paco to apologize for being a wench and trying to stir up Gaby. Paco says Gaby doesn't have it in her to take revenge against Larry. She's young, naïve and doesn't have the strength. F/G says she understands. She is going to protect Gaby.
Octave is ranting on and on to Yolanda about her problem children. What has she done to deserve them? Wah, wah, wah. Me, me, me. Yolanda tells Octave that Peyote is the one to be most concerned about. She's doing drugs. She needs help. More public service announcements. O—"What do you know about children?"
Doc Evil has finally returned home with Andres. They are gloating about Diana's impending downfall. Andres asks Doc Evil if Camila will actually tell Max about Diana. "I'm sure she will!"
Max tells Camila he doesn't want to hear anything Camila has invented about Diana. Diana is a good woman. Pure. Camila asks him if he remembers the night they watched a woman getting arrested. That woman was Diana. Blue flashbacks to that fateful night. Max now remembers! "I told you Diana isn't the woman you think she is. You remember that night yourself!" Max asks Camila what Diana was charged with—"Attempted murder and robbery!" Max is impactado.
Roll that delightful credits footage.

Duelo February 16
Flor sits in the edge of the forest watching Sergio, trying to figure out how they can get past him, he keeps a strict vigil of
Thelma is still puking all the time apparently. Singing Aunt offers to get the doctor but Thelma just starts yelling about how she is carrying the baby of an idiot. Singing Aunt says it isn’t his fault but Thelma just starts ranting some more. She is sure that the baby will be defective or deformed. She keeps saying she will give birth to a monster.
For some reason Flor is standing there talking to Nora and calls her by name, so my memory wasn’t completely gone, instead of just getting up into the house already. Nora tells her that Don Loco is still locked up, then tells her to hurry up before Sergio comes back. I think now what Sergio said before, since Nora is still standing here, is that he wanted HER to yell if anybody came near the house and he would hear her.
In
Angel is out of bed but coughing, keeping watch over Emiliooooo. Thelma barges in, Angel tells her to get out, Emiliooo is doing better but if he wakes up and finds her there he could freak out and die. She insists that she can stay, he finally says do what you want, but keep your mouth closed, your voice might kill him. Ha.
Thelma, who had very clearly been told to shut her mouth, is babbling on to Emiliooo when he moans. She says, out loud, “I better do what Angel said, he’s right.” She gets up and leaves while Emiliooo starts moaning for Flor.
Luba is in the room with Singing Aunt, waiting for Thelma. Singing Aunt keeps telling her to leave, but she says she’ll wait. Finally, to spare us from any more of this amazing verbal sparring, Thelma walks in. She asks what Luba is doing here, Singing Aunt answers like a kid tattling on a sibling, “I told her that you were looking in on Emiliooo but she insisted on waiting here.” Thelma tells her to keep her voice down, she might wake Emilioooo. OH sure now you care, a minute ago you were chattering on straight into his left ear. Luba tells Thelma that Gaspar told her what happened and about the baby. Thelma tries to say it isn’t true, but Luba yells at her. Thelma looks away and looks slightly impactada.
Speak of the devil – Jose is telling Felicia that it was a mistake and he shouldn’t have done it, she tells him what is done is done and it can’t be changed. She says she knows that Jose doesn’t love her, but she loves him.
Thelma is all worked up. Luba tells her to calm down, does she feel all right? Luba offers to bring some herbs to help her feel better. Thelma actually accepts the help. She says sorry, but just hearing the name of Luba’s son gets her all worked up. And sorry, but he didn’t really impress her much. Luba says he is considerate and good. They agree, I think, for Luba to tell Gaspar that the baby is Emiliooo’s. After that, Luba starts telling about Gaspar’s story, does she know of the Devil’s Cave? Gaspar thinks that Thelma is his munequita from there. Thelma says she wouldn’t go there, but she has heard of it, uh yeah, you know, I’ve heard of it. She looks extremely guilty, I’m not sure that Luba is believing her. Luba says that Gaspar gets obsessed with all the pretty girls he sees, she promises that he won’t come back to bother Thelma any more. Thelma begs for him to not come near her, she gets so nervous. Luba tells her to take care and leaves. Out in the hall Luba takes a deep breath and says, “It’s her! I saw it in her eyes! She is the munequita from the Devil’s Cave.” Ok, I guess she wasn’t believing it.
Thelma is getting ready to leave for some reason, Singing Aunt says “How can you go out like this, feeling like you do?” Thelma is worried about Gaspar showing up after Emiliooo wakes up. She is going to get an abortion. Or she said she’s going to go ride a horse to damage the baby so it won’t be born, something like that. I got a bit lost here but I think the deal is that Thelma wants to be rid of the baby. She is married to Emiliooo now, so I guess it has served its purpose.
Don Loco and Hugo are drinking at a bar. Hugo wants to party all night but Don Loco says he doesn’t want to stay here around these miserable poor people, this place sucks, so does this town. Hugo says not for long, rumor has it that there will be a military base here soon, they are going to build a proper road, now Sierra Escondida won’t be so far away from everything. Hugo is thrilled with the news. Don Loco is not. Just then Granillo the gay waiter comes out and says “Ladies and Gentlemen-well more men than ladies, right? Hee hee. I present a goddess, a woman of fire, the one the incomparable, Coral!” Unfortunately, we don’t get to see Coral dance this time either. When they show her skimpy outfit I’d certainly like to see more but they always cut away. Ah well.
Alina tells
Thelma is riding a white horse through the forest in the dark. Of course, who shows up, but Gaspar. He starts going on again about “munequita” and she tells him to let her go, you imbecile. Not very nice. What do you expect riding around the forest in the dark?
Alina just went next door to visit Emilioooo I guess, not back to the cave. She watches Emiliooo while Luba goes for some more herbs or something. She whispers all sorts of lovey crap to him while he sleeps. He wakes up a bit and says “Flor are you there?” She says yes and he says “I knew you would be here, you are my wife. You’re my wife, aren’t you?” She doesn’t answer, he says he remembers the padre about to marry them, he wants a kiss. She says no, you’re sick. He says whatever give me a kiss. He has a dream that he was married to Thelma, she tells him to forget about that. He wants a kiss again, so she kisses him. His breath must be on a whole new level of stink, but she doesn’t seem to care. He is glad to have her by his side. She tells him to rest and sleep. He realizes that his dream was the truth. He would rather die. She tells him it was a dream, that she is his wife. Oh great, nice work Flor. He proclaims his love for her again.
Thelma beats Gaspar with her riding crop, he wants her to kiss him again like in the Devil’s Cave. They struggle and she passes out. He picks her up and carries her off. The camera focuses in on her jewel that fell on the ground, it is the same one that Emiliooo gave her waaaay back when, the one she talked about to her aunt.
Back at the club, everyone is loudly applauding Coral’s dance. Again, unfortunately, we don’t get to see Coral in her skimpy outfit. Hugo tells Don Loco, why don’t you have a little fun? There are lots of pretty girls here! Don Loco tells him no way. He is still upset about the highway. Hugo says it will be good, but Don Loco says not for him. He will lose his tight grip if the place isn’t so remote. He is worried about
Gaspar rides the horse, holding Thelma, swearing that he will cure her, she’ll be all better.
Alina’s aunt Blanca and uncle (I can’t remember his name) in
Alina and Emiliooo lay in bed and kissy kissy etc. Luba overhears and clears her throat to break them up. She tells Flor that her kisses healed him better than her herbs. Flor says not to tease but Luba is serious. However, now that he is better, they don’t have to come at night any more, they have to leave. He wouldn’t be happy to find out he was in the hands of a medicine woman. Flor, of course, doesn’t want to leave. Luba wants to give him one last potion, Flor asks to do it herself, Luba tells her to hurry up already, she gives it to him.
Don Loco has the look on his face that he gets when he’s about to have a flashback, but nothing happens. Hugo notices too, he says what’s the deal? Don Loco says nothing. Edelmira asks if he liked the show, he says yes, where is the dancer? Edelmira offers an introduction but Don Loco says he’s not in the mood, it’s time to go. Hugo whines, he wants to stay.
Max gets his coat on, he is going to go look for Thelma, Singing Aunt thanks him for helping. As he goes to leave, Gaspar walks in with Thelma in his arms. Singing Aunt says, “What did you do to her?” He says nothing and amazingly they believe him. Max tries to take her away to put her in bed, Gaspar insists on doing it himself. Singing Aunt must not have really believed Gaspar after all, she keeps asking him, “What did you do?” on the way up the stairs. Gaspar puts her on her bed. Max asks where he found her, Gaspar says at the river. Max thanks him and says he can leave now but Gaspar says no, he won’t go. Gaspar still has the bandage on his arm where he got shot. Singing Aunt wakes up Thelma with some smelling salts. The first thing Thelmas sees is Gaspar, she starts screaming at him to get out and then she says she’ll kill him. Jeez get grip lady.
Luba has some thoughts while Flor fusses over Emiliooo in the background. Luba decides that she has to find out if Thelma is the woman from the Devil’s Cave.
Elias is his name! The uncle, that is. He is visiting part of the construction zone for the new highway. Apparently building a highway consists of walking back and forth with pieces of wood on your shoulder, because that is what everyone in the background is doing. The guy in charge says that the military engineers will be on site tomorrow and then he says Emilioooo’s name. Elias says he knows who that is, he didn’t realize that Emilioooo had a hacienda here.
Luba tells Flor to go get the ‘teniente’, is that
Flor arrives at
Flor seems to have the run of the place, now she runs into Angel, who invites her into his room. She seems uncomfortable to be around him. He feels better, tomorrow he’ll leave. She tells him that Emiliooo is better, he asks then why does she look sad? Because she can’t come back, of course. She says bye, he says why goodbye? When he feels better he’ll come see her. She just looks at him and says “Goodbye, Angel” and walks out. Jeez you bitch, you don’t have to marry him but you don’t have to be rude. Angel thinks that he has to find a way to get her to forget her love for Emiliooo.
He workers are discussing how glad they are about the new highway. Don Loco arrives and cracks the whip for them to get back to work. Max rides up and says that Emiliooo is better, he wonders how he’ll greet Don Loco when he sees him? Don Loco, full of bravado as always, basically says “whatever.” He says that every man will stay away from Flor. Max says Emiliooo is out of the way, he’s married to Thelma, and that woman is a fiera! Ha ha ha! Max is a great villain, he has the moustache, the way he talks, everything. He even has the laugh. Max says he has two things to talk about. First, if
Thelma is packing, again. She wants to stay with Singing Aunt in case Gaspar comes back, and also she is supposed to stay away from Emiliooo. She tells how Emiliooo thinks he is married to Flor. She goes off to lie down. I wish I had as much free time as these people do. They are tied up with their personal dramas, but for the most part nobody has any responsibilities at all. It makes me sick. I’d love to be able to say in the middle of the day “I need to rest” and then just go lie down.
The little bald boy brings Marianita a flower. Marianita is asleep the whole time, but wakes up to say thank you. She feels bad but Juanito gives her a rousing speech about how they have to get better and run and play. He doesn’t want he to die, but he also doesn’t want her to get better and leave and forget about him, he wants to go with her. Hey, how does this kid just get to walk into a dying girl’s hospital room anyway? Mariana comes in and asks what he’s doing there, he said he came to see Marianita. Mariana sees that he is crying and gives him a hug.
Flor walks with Donkey. All right I noticed something – when she was in Emiliooo’s room and had a blue shirt on over her t-shirt, the t-shirt was way low cut to show lots of great cleavage. Now that she is just wearing a t-shirt, the collar is way up at her neck. Didn’t she say she only had the one shirt? This shirt is pleasantly tight and all, don’t get me wrong, just that the difference between shirts is obvious, are we to believe they are the same shirt? I need answers. She says she’s going to go away with her mom and forget about Emilioooo forever. Right, whatever. Just like a smoker who will quit tomorrow.
Elias tells Blanca that they have to wait a couple days to travel to Sierra Escondida, then the new cabanas will be built and they’ll have a place to stay. Right now, Don Loco won’t invite them to stay with him, right? She agrees.
Don Loco is back in his office ranting about the highway. He calls for Sergio, who runs in. He asks why Sergio didn’t tell him about the highway, Sergio says he was on his way to tell him right now. Suuuure you were. Don Loco says he pays him to tell him what every fly on the hacienda is doing. Don Loco tells him to find out everything he can about the highway, they have to find a way to interfere with the construction.
Emiliooo is sitting up and has some pajamas on, the doctor says the danger has passed but Emiliooo needs to take care of himself. On the way out, the doctor sees Angel and tells him to take care too.
We see on the preview for Monday’s show that the secret wedding to Thelma doesn’t stay secret for long.

Mundo de Fieras: 2/16/07 "...Of Madmen, Mad Men, Saints, and the Sane"
Gabe is about to cross the street. El Mastin is waiting, it seems, to run him down in a hotrod blue Mustang. Nic and Dolores are walking toward the same intersection from a different direction. Pau is waiting in the car and sees things from a 3rd direction. Gabe begins to cross the street and enters the crosswalk. At the last moment El Mastin peels rubber, but just before El Mastin is able to knock Gabe into the Great Beyond, Jos comes rushng towards him like an NFL line backer and goes in for the tackle (all high-heeled 5'2", 110 pounds of her).
Gabe falls down with Jos on top of him, just out of the way of the car. Jos pretends to be hit. Pau runs up to them and starts screaming like a rock groupie to Gabe that Joselyn offered her life to save his. Gabe gets up and then helps Jos up. He is stunned and in complete shock!! Why, she has saved his life!!! "Why did you do it?" She blushes and says with a girlish grin, " I didn't think. It was impulse. I--I did it because I love you."
Nic and Dolores see the whole thing from a different angle. When they approach they tell Jos to stop faking it because they saw the whole thing and know the car didn't touch her. “Gabe, she's pretending to be hurt but the car never even touched her!” Pau is screaming back at Nic and Dolores that she saw it all and Jos did too save her daddy's life! Jos hams it up and screams back at Nic and Dolores in between her crocodile tears, "How dare you? How dare you!” Sniff, sniff. “Oh, Gabriel! I just can't take it anymore.......I should go."
Gabe continues to look from Jos to the three of them. It's obvious he is again completely bewildered by the whole thing. (This guy is a captain of industry?) He thanks her and gallantly offers to take her to the hospital to have the doctor look her over, but she says she'll go herself. So, grateful, gullible Gabe takes the word of his scheming, suicidal and certifiable, devious ex over either that of his trustworthy lawyer bud or the wrongly accused, legally exonerated, Dolores. (We wouldn't have expected any less -nor any more- of Gabe, now would we?)
Gabe ends this. "We'll talk later more calmly. Now I have to take Paulina and meet Regina at the hospital." He leaves.
Once they all have arrived at the hospital, Leo waits with Reggie, Gabe and Pau for the specialist to inform them about the results of the studies. They will find out who will be the best possible donor of bone marrow for JC's transplant operation. Pau takes a minute to ask Gabe if he is sure he is all right. He says of course since it was Joselyn who took the hit from the car. Reggie gets a puzzling look on her face as she listens to them.
Back at Demian's place, Dem is agitated and griping to himself that he probably wrecked the construction merger and his chance to run the whole shebang, along with the love of his wife, for agreeing to play along with Jos by pretending to be a cheating, scheming version of his twin. "I didn't think of the consequences. I was an idiot! Damn it all! All of this was her fault!" (Uh-huh. The devil made him do it.......)
The specialist returns and advises the group that Reggie is the only one who can donate the bone marrow to JC in order to save his life. Leo doesn't think there will be much trouble from her earlier heart problems. Reggie again demands they keep her name out of it for fear JC willl refuse the transplant if he finds out what she's planning. Leo assures them all that "Discrete" is his middle name and his lips are sealed.
In another part of town while having coffee that evening, Dolores tells Nic that Gabe can say whatever he wants, but that car incident was a total set-up. Nic agrees and wonders along with her just what Jos has in mind. Dolores also mentions to Nic that earlier Gabe had told her how Mariangela had left in a hurry and hadn't bothered to tell him she was going. In fact, she'd left him a puzzling letter telling him how disappointed she was in him and that she would talk to him about it after she returned but didn't bother to explain further. Dolores said she read it but couldn't understand what was behind it either. She tells Nic that she feels like Jos may have had something to do with it.
Gabe comes by the manse after leaving the hospital to check on Jos. She's upstairs in something that looks like a skier's long-johns, reading a magazine in bed. Not a hair is out of place and the day's make-up is still perfect. She hides the magazine under the pillow when she hears him approach. "How are your feeling?" "Oh, fine," she manages to squeek out. -"What did the doctor say?" (Jos didn't see any doctor, of course.) "Oh, just to get some rest." (Weak, kindly smile here.) Just then Miriam rushes in, hears what happened from Gabe and exclaims, "Daughter!”
Miriam turns to Gabe. “Well, Joselyn may have all the defects you want, but you cannot deny she still loves you!" Gabe tells Jos he doesn't understand her, and never will. He says he simply came to make sure she was fine and to thank her. He excuses himself and leaves. Miriam waits till he's gone and says, okay, now tell her the real dirt. Jos gives her the juicy details and says she's not certain she's won his trust back, but she's smoothed things over now. She smiles to herself.
Miriam asks Jos what would she have felt if he'd really been turned into road-kill. Jos answers in her sociopathic way that it would have wrecked her plans, but then Mariangela would have lost Gabe forever also. So then Miriam offers her some árnica (leopard's bane) tea. They giggle at that. (Hmm. Note: The tincture from the leaves is used for sprains and bruises. In the RAE under árnica is a reference to “asking for compassion” when somebody feels inferior either because of actions or ideas. Ok. Now I get it.......)
Rogelio ponders what he learned from Coyote: Miriam and Jos were the ones who got Rog falsely accused of drug possession and put into jail. Miriam and Jos also put the poisoned snake in Reggie's van. He thinks to himself about how he'll find more money so El Coyote will let go of more details about the rest of those dastardly dame's deadly dangerous deeds......
Pau fixes JC his favorite meal for supper and he continues to stare at her with love in his red-rimmed eyes while she serves him dinner and mothers him.
Leo and the specialist agree there is no reason to keep JC waiting for his transplant. They agree to keep “the donor” anonymous. The specialist then asks Leo to assist him during the operation as he admires Leo tremendously. (You knew this was coming, didn't you?)
Reggie tells Dolores later that evening at home about now being cleared to give bone marrow to her son in order to save his life. Dolores worries about her heart, but Regina fudges a bit about that possibility and says now her son will be able to realize his life's dreams. Demian walks in on the two of them and asks his wife where she's been until now.
Regina tells Demian she's been to see the doctor and he worries about her health. She assures him she's fine, but he insists that he would go crazy if anything happened to her. He says he wishes he could turn back time and make up for all the nastiness of the past. Reggie assures him that she's forgotten all of it and loves him whole-heartedly. They hug and she thinks to herself, "If he only knew what I am planning to do......."
The next morning, Paulina fixes JC his favorite breakfast. They kiss and hug again.
Gabe comes back in to the Manse with Luis Gabriel as Jos immediately gets into character and limps a bit coming down the stairs. He asks her why she doesn't just stay up there and rest. She feins a need to take care of her son as "he comes before all else." (Even Mother Theresa can't compare with this Joselyn.) Mayeya rolls her eyes as she listens to the line the Señora Cervantes Bravo is feeding her ex and thinks to herself, "If he only knew it's an absolute lie! When he's not around she totally ignores the little boy!"
Tiberio can't find his briefcase again and Dolores hands it to him. She wishes him a happy birthday. He's surprised and says "Thanks. Only you remembered it." She explains how every year in jail she celebrated the day and prayed he would have the best. He says he's uncomfortable hearing all this. She tells him it's about time he gets used to accepting a mother's love. He tries to hug her but gives up and leaves feeling and acting as awkward as any teenager (blech).
Leo comes by especially to tell JC that they have an anonymous donor for him now. Leo says his operaation can take place in a few days and then JC will finally be certain to get to know his son. JC is elated. He asks God to bless the donor.
Demian really got out of the bed on the wrong side this morning and Tiberio is acting like an awkward, fumbling teen around him, too. Demian yells and screams at Ti at the top of his lungs about everything and anything. He is especially mean when Ti mentions to him it's his birthday. Demian kicks him out of his office and screams at him to let him work in peace. "What does he want? A cake and a piñata?" (I guess Miriam's little scolding the day before really got to him.)
Gabe and Regina chat about the upcoming transplant and then about Mariangela's continuing silence. He mentions that Dolores thinks Jos has done something to cause it, but adds he doubts that now after her saving his life the other night. Regina has no other advice but for him to fight for Mariangela's love. He'd like to but asks her what is he supposed to do if she won't talk to him?
JC and Regina wish Ti a happy birthday. Ti has a sad and sudden realization that his daddy really doesn't care a whit for him. Only JC and his mother remembered and bothered to congratulate him.
Back in Demian's office he and Jos are snipping at each other about her idiotic tricks. She tells him he can say what he likes, but they've been working. He laughs and says he can't understand why. Then he shows her Mariangela's picture on the front of a prestigious women-in-industry magazine. He tells her that if she really wants Gabe to respect her as a capable business woman she will have to conduct herself on that level. She says she can and he asks how. She smiles and says "You'll find out!"
JC tells Karen about the anonymous donor. He says he won't tell anybody about his problem until he's tried this last treatment. Later Paulina fakes anger over Karen and stomps out of JC's office. Ti (another master of the obvious) reminds JC that those two can't stand one another.
Jos goes in to see Gabe and tells him he'll be happy to know she's won a valuable contract for the construction company. He looks at it, seemingly impressed, and asks how she was able to get it. Just then Regina interrupts and says they're going to be late for the ribbon-cutting ceremonies for the public housing project, Casa Sara. He tells Jos he'll continue with her later about the contract's conditions and leaves with Reggie, Pau and her.
At the same time Demian is going nuts trying to find a contract he thinks he has misplaced. It seems this is the very same one that Jos has told Gabe is hers. (Yep. She stole it out of Demian's office while he wasn't looking.) Jos smiles to herself saying that by the time Demian finds out it will be too late. She then calls the client and tells them that she is now their contact at the construction company and will handle his account and the contract from here on, per Demian's instructions.
We go back to Miriam's design studio. Miriam has gotten the exclusive contract to use European fabrics as an exclusive in her designs. She has Ingrid rush to call all Otilia's clients to grab her business from them. She says by the time Otilia finally has found a willing distrubutor she'll be too far behind to get new clients and catch up to her.
Otilia has had Diana and Soraya invite over the best designer in all of Mexico. They explain how Miriam has played this last dirty trick on them. He agrees that colleagues must remain ethical in their dealings with each other. They tell him Otilia's idea about using Mexican products and artistry for their design collection instead of copying Miriam's pro-European product line and designs. He agrees and begins advising them.
At Candy and Leo's house, Mayeya's parents listen to Cortito stumbling through stage fright to finally ask for their daughter's hand in marriage. Tee-hee, tee-hee. Budda-boom. Budda-boom.(Reynaldo Rossaro does have great timing, but even he cannot help the plotline, the script, or the actress he's had to play opposite.) FF > >
Rog visits El Coyote, who is looking and acting more like a Charles Manson wanna-be every trip back. He tells Rog that for such a miserly little sum he will only give him a tiny bit of information. Rog gets upset because he thought it was actually quite a bundle. (I'm wondering who Rog swindled this time to get it.)
Crazed Coyote gives a maniacal, Manson-like laugh and hints that Rog should look into who had his dead mistress killed, the one he used to share, because he'll be in for a great big surprise! Rog (no doubt blinking at the bad breath escaping through those little audio holes in the bulle-proof glass, and figuring with all the cash Coyote's squeezed out of him he could at least have bought a case or two of Altoids) starts to consider El Coyote's riddle.
Paulina invites Karen to have lunch with her and Gabe. They sneak out of the office at different times because it is important that JC still think she's jealous, so he doesn't realize they're both aware of his illness and have become friends.
Gabe is surprised to see his daughter arrive with Karen at the restaurant. Paulina and Karen explain how Karen has had a change of heart and is trying to succeed in turning her life around. Pau tells her father how Karen had given emotional support to Juan Cristobal before anyone else was aware he was sick. Gabe is glad to hear it and offers her all the support she might need.
Later, back at the apartment, Paulina gets worried about JC's sudden weakness and coughing. She forgets herself and gets carried away while pressuring him to see Leo for a check-up. He refuses and she warns him that they cannot continue living like this. He says that's why he asked her to go away before. She gets angry and accidentally slips up when screaming back at him about expecting her to just leave so that he's all alone when he gets another attack. He realizes Paulina now knows the truth and she has to admit it. She runs to him and hugs him. He is visibly upset, though, and his eyes are darting everywhere. --Roll Credits.

I kept some of the words from his responses in Spanish because it sounded cute and you can just picture him saying them. Welcome all to the chat of Jaime Camil
Jaime Camil interprets Fernando Mendiola: He's an intelligent, sophisticated, tenacious and impulsive man. Ambition has lead him to commit large errors in his life. He longs to have the control of the business, where his family is a shareholder. He is an innate conqueror, love and the sex do not get mixed up for him. Let the Questions begin!

Marycelis Pacheco's translation of Jaime Camil's other chat.
As a preface, Jaime was a host/commentator on a reality show program called Operación Triunfo México that is a mix of Big Brother and American Idol. People living in one house/instituto studying and practicing music and are judged by a panel at something called Gala at which point it is decided if they stay on the show or go home. The winner of the show gets to sign a music deal.
--------
[Host]: Welcome to the chat with Jaime Camil.
[Host] Singer of vocation and soul, Jaime is a person with solid presence in the music world due to his great trajectory that includes radio, TV and acting in novelas and two album productions “Para Estar Contigo and Una Vez Maz”
[Host] Even though you would think one was talking about an actor that wanted to be a singer in reality he is the opposite, he is a singer that was given the opportunity to act in the telenovela Mi Destino Eres Tu
[Host] Actually, his efforts are centered in the promotion of his new album (Una Vez Mas) where he worked in the studio with Marco Flores and Kike Santander, whose single Dime, is already playing strong on Mexican radio.
[Host] Born July 22 1973 and a very proud Mexican, since May of this year residing in Miami Florida
[Host] Jaime was invited for the production of Operación Triunfo México to be the weekly host/commentator for the reality show, which he accepted despite the fact that he has to travel constantly from Mexico City to Miami
[Host] Although many of you will find it strange to see him as an MC, the truth is this cute kid started his career as a radio commentator and host of a program for TV Azteca called Que Nochecita!
[Host] A few years ago we saw him in the role of Mauricio, the unrequited love interest of Lucero in Mi Destino Eres Tu.
[Host] He also participated in a special program Diseñador Ambos Sexos where he became the rival of Jean Phillipe Martin (Héctor Suárez Jr.) for the love of Carolina (Luz María Zetina).
[Host] If you want to know more, what are you waiting for, start sending your questions.
[Host] Let the questions begin!
[Host] *
[TanyaLouise] JAIME-I SEND A BIG KISS FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY, I HOPE THAT YOU HAD A GREAT TIME!!
[Jaime_Camil] Before anything, very good afternoon to all the users, thank you very much for being here with me today.
[Jaime_Camil] Tanya, I send you a big kiss from Miami, thank you for supporting me unconditionally like always.
[anali] Do you think you have achieved everything you desired in your life and career?
[Jaime_Camil] Definitely no. There are a few goals I have to accomplish, I am only just beginning.
[22091961] Jaime, this is the first time I enter a chat, I hope you give me luck. A Kiss. –Ale
[Jaime_Camil] Ale there is always a first time
[cristy]How good is your relatiohship with Luis Miguel?
[Jaime_Camil]I don’t talk much about him in the press so as to not be misinterpreted but it’s been two years since I don’t see him.
[PATY]HOW OLD ARE YOU?
[Jaime_Camil] 28 years old
[NANCY]WHAT DON’T YOU LIKE ABOUT WOMEN.
[Jaime_Camil]Nothing, I adore women and I like everything about them, I think they are the most beautiful and perfect creation God has put on the earth
[ARREITARRAMAN]HEY WHAT’S UP WITH ALEJANDRA GUZMAN WHO SNUCK INTO THE LAST PROGRAM.
[Jaime_Camil]I don’t know. Alejandra is Alejandra. And if you invite her to a program you have to be prepared to receive the Alejandra that everyone knows.
[alejandrolcf] How is it living with the young people on operacion triunfo
[Jaime_Camil]Marvelous. It is a noble television project, very pretty and moving. It is a privilege being on a project like this.
[PATTYVERDE]HEY JAIME, ARE YOU PRESENTLY PLANING A TELENOVELA?
[Jaime_Camil]I don’t know, it would have to depend on the producer, the story. Since I am living in US there are more movie offers in LA than telenovelas for the moment.
[Jaime_Camil] That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard and I believe that once the children start going out and get interviewed, they better than anyone will clear up those absoured rumors.
[buho_con_msn] IS IT TRUE THAT YOU HAD A RELATIONSHIP WITH SOFIA VERGARA
[Jaime_Camil]I don’t like talking about my relationships because in the end the press always come to their own conclusions.
[isik]Hello Jaime, say what went through your head when the OT judge started to talk about Alejandra Guzman and she responded with an uncomfortable comment to put it delicately
[Jaime_Camil] You referring to the "mother insult" I am sure …Well nothing happened I just simply tried to go with the program in the best way possible.
[intrusa]what do you plan on doing to raise ratings of OT?
[Jaime_Camil]Nothing OT is the original format of musical reality. It is an approved format that begins working around the fifth or sixth airing and it is very adventorus compared to a TV program that has just started to one that has aired eight weeks and has a captive audience. The press ventures much giving opinions too early,
[LORENA]HELLO, HOW ARE YOU DOING, YOU KNOW I ADMIRE YOU A GREAT DEAL, DESPITE YOUR GREAT CHARISMA YOU SEEM TO BE A CENTERED KID AND YOUR FEET ARE FIRMLY ON THE GROUND
[Jaime_Camil] Thank you very much. I send you a kiss.
[Morenasa] you have a girlfriend?
[Jaime_Camil] No
[edna_vasa] how do you feel being a host/commentator of a program. Kisses, I like you very much.
[Jaime_Camil]Like I said before, it is a wonderful television program and it is a privilege hosting it. Thank you very much, kisses to you too
[Piloto] How much growth is in your new album compared to the last one?
[Jaime_Camil] Piloto!! Shouldn’t you be in the institute? Hahaha
[Jaime_Camil]A lot of growth. I come with a mature voice having done 180 live shows with the last album. The music selection is greater and working with Kike Santander is marvelous.
[tania]How do you feel being the host of Operación Triunfo
[Jaime_Camil]Very good, it is a marvelous program
[barb]When you are you coming to veracrus to promote your album
[Jaime_Camil]Let me ask my promoter
[Jaime_Camil] Probably next week
[Leo]You should have been a comic, you are very funny.
[Jaime_Camil] Thanks Leo. I appreciate it very much.
[balliss]How is your sexual life.
[Jaime_Camil] On fire. Thank God and without complaints.
[patty]Tell me how would you want the woman of your life
[Jaime_Camil]Don’t know..simply that she be a woman, honest, transparent and obviously love grows through sight, whoever says different I think is lying
[dante]HEY JAIME WHAT’S YOUR SHOE SIZE?
[Jaime_Camil] 11 american.
[KEY]What do you think of the possible romances within the institute?
[Jaime_Camil]Marvaelous. I belive Mar and Rodrigo are starting to like each other and perhaps Judith and Paco are following suit.
[isik]Who do you think will be out? ¿Josué o Jesús?
[Jaime_Camil]Uff..Don’t know, tough question. But it looks like the phone calls up until now are supporting Jesús.
[gaby6]Jaime is it true that you are dating the girl that hosted the review?
[Jaime_Camil]No. Neither did I bring her in to work on the show like it’s been said
[nataly] [nat]Jaime, how do you sleep clothed or like adam?

[KEY]You think that there is freedom in the institute to say your sexual preferences?
[Jaime_Camil]Of course. If they are not said it’s because the students themselves don’t want to say them. The Institute is not a jail and the students are not conditioned to nothing.
[isik]Do you have a favorite? Or it doesn’t matter who wins? (Although obviously you couldn’t decide who)
[Jaime_Camil] Truthfully, I was judge when there were 170 students, afterwards 71, then 39 and up until the last 24 and the truth is that the 16 that there chosen deserve to win I tell you with you all my heart

[Jaime_Camil]I hope so. I wish and the following year we have the opportunity to have a second generation.
[orion] what did your body feel when you heard about the news about gaby?
[Jaime_Camil]It was horrible. Truthfully because if you think about it perhaps she feels her career is over but in reality her career is just starting and it was only an obastacle that life gave her, I hope all the students that come out of OT, will see it in the same positive way.
[mayin] Jaime how long where you with thalia?
[Jaime_Camil] As I said before, I don’t talk much about my relationships but we had a very beautiful relationship.
[ALITA]HEY ANSWER THIS, WHY DO YOU MAKE FUN OF THE DECECTS OF THE CONTESTANTS IN THE GALAS?

[volador]Do you think that the students in the academy are better prepared than those on OT.
[Jaime_Camil]Definitely no.

[dharmma29]hello Jaime I send you lots of greetings from Noruega!

[Jaime_Camil] There we go! Because men with dark bean color like myself cause commotion over there.
[chaparra] You are hot, greetings all the way from Canada
[Jaime_Camil]Thank you a kiss to the maple leaf.
[connie] What has been the worst sacrifice that you have made in your career?
[Jaime_Camil] Having to withstand the idiot remarks made by the media who say that it’s been easy for me because of the situation with my father or withstanding those people who think I am where I am because my career was bought. I have suffered through much to be where I am and I have accomplished this on my own merits.

[Jaime_Camil] thank you
[SPARKDNK]HOW IS IT THAT YOU DECIDED TO SING?
[Jaime_Camil]Mi mom was a singer. She came to Mexico and did concerts with Armando Manzanero. Therefore I inherited, plus even while studying I was always a singer, ever since I was young. But life has given me the opportunity to try the role of host/commentator and I didn’t’ want to pass it up.
[CARICIA] IF YOU COULD REWIND TIME WHAT WOULD YOU CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE?
[Jaime_Camil]Nothing
[fany]Jaime is it true that in the singing career you have to make many sacrifices.
[Jaime_Camil] Very true. You have to make many many sacrifices.
[isik] You are not going to sing in the one of the galas like everyone else?
[Jaime_Camil] It wouldn’t be right because the Galas are the window for them to shine and for them to be evaluated by the jury although they have invited me to sing with them in the Mexican Gala.
[vane]hello Jaimio! I want to tell you that I too am a paisana and I want to tell you that the way you dress fascinates me and your look is incredible.

[adaa]Jaime with all do respect, as a request you should make the Sunday program a little shorter without so much tension, I get tired of watching so much.
[Jaime_Camil]I too consider the long pauses a little exaggerated. But good or bad, this is the format of the reality shows and a lot of people like the emotion.
[SIALIS]WHAT DO YOU VALUE MORE IN A WOMAN?
[Jaime_Camil]In any human being I value the transparency of the soul.

[Jaime_Camil] not in the immediate
[estefany] jaime i ask you again why do you hate tv azteca
[Jaime_Camil] Because it is a television station that when I was there they didn't do things how they do now, for example they steal projects in bad faith and with pain; they make disatrous comments that are also destructive and I think they have failed in professional ethics, what didn't exist when I was there.
[sherleyche] JAIME HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR WOMEN?
[Jaime_Camil] That they are women is more than enough
[serena] How is it that you were selected to be host/commentator on Operacion?

Congratulations to the art of the Mexican movies.'
[Clase406] Hello Jaime, Do you think that after Operation Triunfo, your career will get better or stay the same
[Jaime_Camil] This career is of highs and lows, and to be part of this medium you need peserverence. This career is based on small daily and constant efforts to make it a success and you should never give up or ever think that a project will make or break you. You have to battle constantly.
