Eva Luna #91 Tue 3/15/11 More truth is revealed, Leo is still a lying snake
RECAP IS UP!!! Scroll down to the bottom of the recap to see screencaps. (No video clips this week. I'll try to be better next time!)
Episode 91
Lo siento everyone, I'm kind of running on empty here, so the recap is a bit later than usual. Also scenes will be consolidated to avoid trying to cover all crazy-making quick cuts.
We start with Daniel in jail, who is flashbacking to the day on the boat when Leo borrowed the car and came back all discombobulated about hitting something. Daniel connects the dots and realizes that Leo hit Eva's dad.
More of the tearful reunion between Eva and Deborah.
Lileach visits Daniel in jail. Lileach starts in with how devastated Laurita is that he's in jail, and it's all that evil Eva's fault. Then Daniel tells Lileach that he figured out that Leo is the one that hit Eva's dad. She doubts this but Daniel animatedly explains it all. Then his abogado comes in and says he's free, free, free! He tells abogado that Leo is the real killer.
Eva's talking with Deborah about the dad, how he made a mistake but was trying to make up for it. . . then she says that it was Daniel that killed her dad. Deborah doesn't look all convinced of this.
Don Julio calls up Marcy and is gaslighting her. She's freaking and he's laughing. Many "no puede sers!" are uttered.
Bruno's pretty cousin is getting out of Dodge (errr, L.A.). Packing up her stuff and leaving. Gallo comes to visit, looking for Bruno. He pretends to be a real estate guy and says he has clients wanting to buy Bruno's property. Leaves his business card with her.
Eva tells Leo that she is starting to think that Daniel is innocent. Of course Leo starts in with his slimy version of what happened. Daniel appears at this moment and interrupts this conversation by confronting Leo about who killed the dad. Leo has no shame and just keeps claiming that it's Daniel who did it, blah blah blah, while Daniel is dumbfounded that Leo can keep a straight face while spewing out all the lies.
Marcy's cell phone rings. She doesn't want to answer it. She sees the call is from Victoria. She doesn't want to talk to Victoria yet, and hasn't forgiven her for sleeping with Bruno. But Bruno is going to get his, Marcy vows, since she hired Gallo!
Don Julio visits Justa again. Don Ricardo of course thinks he is Vicente and invites him in. He says he's there to give Justa something that she should have gotten a while ago. Don Ricardo is interested to know what it is! It's a necklace! Wow, Don Ricardo exclaims. But Justa looks freaked out. Don Ricardo doesn't understand and Don Julio gives some weird explanation about her emotions.
Gallo is now trailing Bruno's cousin.
More accusations between Leo and Daniel. Leo is still insisting that it was Daniel all along. Daniel finally confronts Eva and says, It's his word against mine, who will you believe! Eva doesn't know what to do—Leo has been good to her! She runs off like a confused wimp. Then Daniel tells Leo that he WILL pay for killing Eva's dad! But Leo still thinks he's "won."
Eva sees Tia Tilde and tells all about what's going down and how her head is going to explode. She has reunited with Deborah. Tia is not happy to hear this. Eva explains how that when she saw Deborah's house, she remembered that the dad was going there the day he got hit, blah blah blah.
Happy reunion between Daniel and Laurita. Icky comes in and ruins the moment. She's still playing the crazy act and fake-faints. She revives and they bring over the crooked doctor to look at her.
Eva thinks that Tia knew about the dad's lie to the girls. Tia wants to deny it but at least Eva is showing some brain cell activity in this situation. She has connected the dots and realizes that Tia hasn't been truthful.
Justa is all impactada about the necklace, which was given to her by Julio the day he told her he loved her.
Marisol is visiting with young record exec who is going to discuss her image. She's going to be "every woman's friend" and the girl that a guy will want to be the mother of his children. Uh huh, Marisol says, looking dubious.
Damian is giving Marisol's pretty coworker a hard time. He wants to know where Marisol is. She says she doesn't know. She's tired of this and when Marisol is famous, she'll go work for her! Of course Damian wants to know why she's saying that Marisol will be famous. She tells him—a label has signed her up and she's going to be a big star!
Eva's telling Alicia what's going down with Deborah. Another tearful scene. Tia still doesn't want to accept Deborah, as she is that ho who cheated on her brother. She recalls a conversation she had with her brother, where he expressed regret for what he did, and but Tia is still worried that Deborah will take the girls' love away from her (Tia). Then she has an epiphany and realizes that this was all wrong.
Daniel is telling the crooked doctor that he's concerned that Icky is going to do more crazy stuff, but crooked doctor says that she won't, blah blah blah. She can't be moved yet.
At work, Daniel is lying in wait for Leo. They've got more to discuss. Daniel has a new bet—who will end up in jail now?
Marisol is having breakfast with cute label guy. He starts to express a personal interest in her, so she looks like she's about to tell him that she's married, when up comes creepy Damien. Marisol does not look happy. Cute label guy tries to get rid of creepy Damien by saying he's Marisol's husband. Marisol cuts him off and says that Damien is a former co-worker (something about working as a bartender). Then she tells cute label guy that she's married. Cute label guy doesn't seem to elated with this news.
Tearful reunion between Deborah and Alicia. Smiles and tears. Tia comes up and basically confesses all. She knew all along. She didn't tell before because (I think) the brother had been supporting her? Or she was being supportive of the brother? Then when he died she didn't want his memory tarnished.
Damien is hinting around about Marisol's past, while Marisol tries to gesture to him to not tell. Of course Damien is enjoying this. Label guy is completely clueless, obviously. Marisol fakes a sudden stomach ache and wants to leave. Damien hints that he'll be seeing her soon.
Leo smugly reminds Daniel that there is no proof of what really happened. Victoria can't testify because she's got a screw loose, and Claudia is dead. Daniel grabs him by the collar in a rage. Leo taunts Daniel by saying he'll marry Eva and be the father of Daniel's child. Daniel pushes Leo to the ground and vows that it'll never happen.
Justa and Adrian on a shopping spree. They see the Hollywood sign from a shopping mall. Pretty good view there, to be able to see the Hollywood sign all the way from Florida.
Gallo's in a car with Tony. He's saying that Tony broke the rule—he messed with his boss's woman. Tony animatedly explains that it was the other way around—Leo stole Tony's "woman."
Don Ricardo, Justa and Adrian are preparing the pension for a party.
Gallo advises Tony to forget about this woman if he wants to keep breathing. Tony says that without her, he won't have a reason to keep on breathing. (I think that's what was said.)
Justa gets the necklace out and has a weird flashback where she's remembering when Don Julio gave it to her and how he told her he loved her. They are supposed to look younger in the flashback but instead it all just looks odd. Justa wonders if maybe she still loves Julio.
Tia Tilde asks for forgiveness for keeping the truth from the girls. Forgiveness is given. More tears and smiles. Deborah embraces Tia. I think she's just glad all this B.S. is over and she's got her daughters back.
End of episode!

La Fea Más Bella #253-254 3/15/11 Omar's ilusión
Read Julie's original recap, then come back here to discuss it.
1. Fern tells MamaJ that he loves Lety like crazy, she’s changed, and he’s afraid he’s lost her. Mama is sure that Lety loves (querer) him and not Aldo. Fern saw Lety’s pain when Aldo left, and he knows it was his rotten behavior that drove Lety to Aldo.
2. Tom tells Aldo that after he left, Lety realized she loved him. Aldo wants Lety to be happy, and he’d do it again, even if he knew she’d end up with Fernando.
3. Lety tries different voices for Aurora, such as Mae West and a very good Marilyn. Lety accepted herself as she was before, and now she doesn’t know who she is.
4. Fern admits it’s easier to talk to MamaJ than his mother. She tells him to calm down; nobody dies from love. He asks, “Then how can one live, seeing the one he loves with another?” He asks MamaJ for help ¿To convince Lety to pick him? NO! To learn to respect people’s decisions. MamaJ says he can start by accepting that Aldo [I think she says, “sea algo” – is something, means something] in Lety’s heart.
5. Omar is overwhelmed by Aurora’s beauty. He says, “With you, beauty was invented. Anyone would fall in love with you at first sight.” He could write her the most beautiful love letters. Lety enjoys the irony. He gets on his knees to beg. She leaves but drops an earring. He says, “Finally I’ve found the love of my life.”
6. Ali tells Tom that it’s always been her dream to sing for an audience. Tom cons Garza into letting her sing “Urge” (check this clip). The audience loves it and Ali is so moved, she kisses Tom.
7. Lety dreams that Aurora stands between Fern and Aldo, but neither of them wants her. Fern says, “I liked the sweet and sensitive Lety who was my assistant.” Aldo says, “I prefer the Lety in Acapulco. Funny, sweet, nice, with gumption. I don’t like this one.” Fern stutters, “A mi, n-n-no me.. you take her.” Aldo says, “I’ll leave her to you. I’m going back to the beach.” Fern says, “I’m going back to my presidency.”
8. Aldo says he’s going to stay away and let Lety sort out her thoughts.
9. Manuel the stylist needs those earrings back ASAP. Caro worries because Omar has one of them. She sees Aurora’s picture on the front page of the paper.
Capitulo 254.
Read Julie's original recap, then come back here to discuss it.
1. Lety can’t decide between old Lety and la bella. She decides to redraw her unibrow and mustache, and reattach her braces, and no one will ever see Aurora again.
2. Ali tells Tom that if he wants any more kisses he has to earn them.
3. Omar sees Aurora’s picture in the paper. He considers forgiving Fern because he’s happy and in love. He goes to work and shows off Aurora’s picture to the cuartel, telling them he found the woman he could marry. But he doesn’t show Fern, for fear Fern will steal Aurora from him. Fern assures him that he has no interest in any woman who’s not Lety.
4. Tom reminds Fern that he should treat Aldo nice since he owns the debt. Cute scene between the two.
5. The Padillas see the report on the woman of mystery. Pop is shocked by Aurora’s revealing dress. I guess he never watches Mexican TV. Origel announces a contest to locates her. The winner will have dinner with TBLMOE.
6. Caro tells Omar she needs the earring back. Omar refuses unless Aurora goes out with him tonight. Fern hears Caro say, “Lety, you’re in the paper!” He wants to see it but they cover. He notices that something is different on Lety’s face, and they shoo him out. When he sees the Aurora picture, he’s not impressed; he prefers Lety.
7. Ariel takes the president’s chair. He says the board approved him as president after Lety resigned (since when?). He tells her to get out. The cuartel tells Tom, and he runs to Fernando (go, Tom!). Ariel is pawing Lety when Fern and Omar walk in. Fern tells Lety to humor him for now, and they’ll get it straightened out. Lety thanks Fernando for defending her.
8. The attorney tells Aldo that he has authority over Conceptos even though he’s not exactly the owner.
9. Luigi returns from vacation and Fernando throttles him for going over budget so they couldn’t make the loan payment and they lost the company to Aldo.
10. Ali assumes she’s Ariel’s assistant. Ariel gives her a list of tasks, while she makes her own list of perks.
11. Marcia hears Lety tell Caro that she couldn’t get the earring so she’s going out with Omar tonight. She names the place, and says she’ll be a knockout just like last night.

Eva Luna #90 Mon 3/14/11 It's The Clink for Dano; Eva Admits She Got It Wrong
Labels: eva
Llena de Amor #148 (Mex. 158-159) Mon 3/14/11 The unexpurgated version
Since I didn’t know which scenes were destined to be cut, I put in more detail than usual on the minor ones, and as this is two episodes, I hope you will forgive that I abandoned snark in favor of content so it wouldn’t run too long.
Then I watched Univision’s version to check what I’d written against the captions, but in the second half the captions went out, and toward the end, the part I hadn’t been able to get off the web, the video and audio were scrambled. Not my day for technology!
So with those caveats in mind, jump right in.
Friday: Eman has slept with Ilitia, then decides to leave town for a few days to think.
We see him coming down the stairs with his suitcase, saying goodbye to the family who have gathered – Fedra, Emil, Axel and Gretel – and also MariVicky who looks sadly on. Montage: MV is in her room, looking at herself in her mirror and crying. Jorge appears behind her, faking looking understanding. Emanuel is riding off into the woods on his motorcycle, MV is walking in the gardens, arms folded, thinking hard. Now it’s nighttime and Eman is having a weenie roast at his campsite. Ilitia and MV run into each other in the halls of the big house and are cranky at each other. Eman is jogging in the woods. Ain’t nobody happy.
Two weeks later! MV and Delicia discuss Eman. MV thinks that he will never ever forgive her, but Delicia thinks that their love is TAN GRANDE that he will.
Eman’s not back yet, but Fedra tells the gathered family that Ilitia has some news. Kristel wonders if it’s about their divorce and Ilitia looks daggers at her. Apparently Lorenzo is going to show up for the big announcement, because Emil rants that he doesn’t want him in his house. Miss Manners Fedra tells him that Lo is Ilitia’s father, and that everyone has to behave around him and Muñeca. Axel and Gretel think Kristel’s the one who can’t behave, but Kristel waves that off, and says all that’s over and she’s heading for New York, so there.
Here comes Muñeca, but not with Lo! She is on the arm of Leon Garduño, who she happily presents to everyone has her “companion.” Ilitia is shocked, but Muñeca reminds her that she’s a divorced woman now and can go out with anyone she wants to. Lo arrives behind them and everyone throws looks while he looks grim.
Meantime, MV is still finishing up her makeup. Jorge comes in and tells her that he’s bummed that she’s distant with him. He knows she’s feeling bad about what happened between them. (In looking at the last episode, I saw a cut scene in which he and MV have a talk when she awakens next to him, and he tells her that she got drunk and wanted it as much as he did.) He wants to keep her friendship, and she tells him not to worry, they were both at fault.
Oh, and by the way, he says, he thinks it’s good that Bernardo is allowed to stay in the house. (I don’t remember how Bernardo got out of jail. Did we see that?) MV says if it helps his plan to get in with Fedra’s business deal, then yes, it’s better to have her nice and peaceful as possible.
Downstairs, Emil spits epithets about Lo to Muñeca and Garduño. They assure him Lo will behave, Garduño’s assurance carrying more heft. But Lo is still Lo, and off to one side, he tells Fedra she’s looking better than ever. She snarls at him that she’s surprised he showed up given that nobody can stand the sight of him. He counters that nobody can stand her either, and yet she stays in this house which doesn’t even belong to her. They toss some more delicious insults, then he mentions that she set Mauricio on him to kill him and yet look! here he is whereas Mau has been lying in a hospital bed for two weeks now staring death in the eye. She lights up and wants to hear every detail. He says when they can break away here, they can head over to his apartment and work off all their anger at one another – in bed. Yum – she likes the idea. Bernardo, who is listening in the background, doesn’t.
Gretel and Axel are walking with arms around one another and are laughing that their family pretty much sucks. In the background, Eman roars up on his motorcycle. Big hugs and he asks what’s new. They tell him the whole family is gathered in the living room waiting for an announcement from Ilitia. Eman thinks he’ll duck into the service entrance instead because he wants to talk to Victoria.
He runs off and Axel and Gretel sigh about how in love Eman and Victoria are, but then Gretel slips and says MV’s been in love with him since they were kids. What? says Axel. She just known him since she arrived from Spain!
Delicia is filling in MV on who all is downstairs, Garduño the gangster and even Lo! After stealing all the money, and having an affair with Kristel, says MV, what if he also found out… She catches herself and Delicia wants to know what she was about to say. MV quick changes the subject to the dress she’s going to put on. Delicia gossips a bit about crazy Kristel who needs that lady shrink more than Gretel does.
MV wonders if Eman has arrived yet, and Delicia says no, but just then we hear him greeting them and the music swells and gets happy. Delicia leaves, telling them she’ll keep watch to make sure nobody bothers them.
Fedra, smiling happily, steps away from Lorenzo and Emil takes the opportunity to bear down on him. He tells him that after Ilitia has made her announcement, he expects that Lorenzo will do the right thing and get the hell out of there. Lorenzo points out that it’s not Emil’s house any more. Emil warns him not to get him riled, and reminds him that he no longer is married to Muñeca.
Now we’re with Axel and Gretel outside the house. They each want the other to be happy, she begs him to run away with Delicia, and he tells her to forgive Oliver who of course materializes right at that moment with Brandon. Oliver asks her to give him another opportunity, and Brandon decides that he’ll go look for MV, but Axel tells him she can’t be interrupted because she’s with Eman. Brandon says actually he doesn’t want to interrupt Oliver and Gretel.
Muñeca asks Jorge, seeing that he’s so capable and he’s Marianela’s husband, if he would represent her shares at the company. Gladly.
Nereida announces that Eman has arrived. Ilitia is thrilled and tells everyone to give him a round of applause. But it’s Brandon who walks in instead, and Ilitia demands to know what he’s doing there. He tells her MV wanted to miss the family thing, and said she wanted to go out with him instead. Jorge doesn’t like it, and says MV never mentioned it. Brandon tells them Eman’s already home and he’s in the house somewhere, probably with MV.
Eman spends a long time trying to get MV to say how she feels, while she just looks tragic. Finally she caves and admits she loves him and they kiss.
Oliver is trying to win Gretel back, and tells her that that with Kristel wasn’t real and Gretel cuts him off. Thank goodness for Axel, who tells her to let him explain. Axel gives him a friendly warning that if he cheats on his sister, he’ll have him to deal with. Off he goes and Gretel, who has on way too much eyeliner, tells Oliver he has one minute. He starts talking fast and within seconds it looks like she’s melting.
Eman thanks MV for telling him she loves him. Finally! He’s overjoyed, does a little more past-forgiving and then says he wants their future to start now, with no lies. No lies, she repeats. He says they’ll tell each other everything right now and forgive each other. She accepts, but looks stressed.
He goes first: After what happened with MV and Jorge, he slept with Ilitia.
Delicia is listening from the top of the stairs when Ilitia announces that she’s had it and she’s going to go get Eman. Fedra tells her not to throw a scene. Then Jorge decides he’ll be the one to go get MV, after which Brandon says he will. Delicia is frantic, ready to warn them. Emil tells them nobody’s going - if they need to talk leave them alone.
As everyone stands around, looking at a loss, Lo starts to work his way around the back of the room, maybe towards Kristel but this scene is cut off.
We’re back with Eman and MV. He tells her he’s sorry and he had to get his head together. She asks him if it’s true that he and Ilitia had never been together before. He says it is. She doesn’t believe him and flashes back on Ilitia’s little acting job when she was drunk and pretended to be remembering some delicious love-making with Eman.
He can’t figure out why she doesn’t believe him. Never mind, she says. Now it’s her turn and she says the time with Jorge was nothing, but she has something very important to tell him that she can’t keep hiding.
It was Ilitia Lorenzo wanted to talk to. He thanks her for inviting him and hopes they can settle their differences. She’s furious and says that she wanted her family together, and here her mother shows up with Garduño. Lo clucks that that’s bad indeed, but Ilitia then tells him what he did was worse. Poor Emiliano! And Kristel was her best friend! How could he?
He pleads that he fell in love. Ilitia says she’s had it with both her parents, and wants to just focus on Eman and making a family with him. I think that Lo makes some remark about her hanging out with the policeman, but I’m not sure.
After a lot of insistence that she loves him, MV tells him Victoria de la Garza can’t marry anybody ever. He babbles that he’ll take good care of her. She says that she’s hurt him terribly. She can’t be with him unless he knows who she really is. Tell me! he says.
And if you think she’s going to say it, you are a telenovela virgin. In bursts frantic Delicia, who tells him Ilitia’s outside.
Ilitia of course wants him to explain why he came home and the first thing he did was run to talk to MV. He says he had to talk to MV and now he needs to have a serious talk with her. In fact, here are the divorce papers, they just need her signature. No way until we’ve talked, she says.
Oliver and Gretel are inside now, maybe in the service area. He tells her Kristel set him up, and that it was a job to get money because he didn’t have enough for them. Gretel says she doesn’t care about money, and he shows her the check that he ripped up as soon as he got it. The most important thing in his life is her. She tells him he didn’t just rip up a check, he ripped up her heart. He says he can fix it, and does with a long slo-mo kiss.
Ilitia tells Eman that the whole family, half of whom hate the other half, are down there waiting for the two of them. He’s to get all dressed up and go down, and then she’ll see to the papers. He agrees.
More lovetalk, and Oliver tells Gretel he needed money because he’s not at her level, and what’s going to happen when he asks her father for her hand, him a policeman? Gretel swears she doesn’t care about money. Paula is eavesdropping in the background. Oliver, fighting back tears, says he family does care about money, and he so wants her to feel proud of him.
Don’t leave! cries Gretel. I love you! That works and they hug and kiss and Paula walks in and rejoices. Group hug.
MV tells Delicia that she was about to tell Eman the whole truth when she interrupted them. Delicia protests that surely she didn’t want Ilitia walking in on them. There’s a knock and MV calls out to Eman, asking if he got rid of her, but instead in barges Ilitia saying no, it’s me, his wife. She swats MV with the divorce papers and tells her she’s not going to steal her husband.
Capitulo 159
MV tells Ilitia that Eman didn’t marry her because he was in love, and it’s not her fault that he fell in love with her. Ilitia tells her she’s going to have to say “byeee” to her big plans with Eman. She swishes out and Delicia and MV imitate her “byeee” then MV wonders what Ilitia meant.
Downstairs, Brandon is telling Muñeca that she shouldn’t take up with Garduño because he’s a criminal. Muñeca says she knows, but he’s such a gentleman, and she thinks she can change him into a good man. It’s the least she can do for him after all he’s done for her. Open your eyes, says Brandon. Men like that never change. He asks her how long she was married to Lorenzo, and was she able to change him?
Lo, who was watching this conversation from a distance, sidles over to Garduño and advises him that Brandon is protective of Muñeca, and that he can’t date her without shaking Brandon loose. In fact, they might be setting a trap for him right now. Thank you for the kindess, says Garduño with ironic formality, but I’m capable of taking care of myself.
I didn’t quite catch this part: Lorenzo warns him that the Lirio means a lot to Muñeca and that they are setting a trap, and might be doing the same for him, adding that he’s just trying to help, as he’s his right-hand man and is watching his back.
Eman comes down the stairs, thrilling Fedra. He says thanks, but all this isn’t necessary. Of course it is, she says, Ilitia has an announcement. Ilitia jumps right in, gets her champagne toasts his return.
Paula is very happy about Oliver and Gretel, and tells Gretel to fight to overcome every obstacle. Oliver wants her to leave the house with him right now to get away from Fedra, but Gretel says she can’t. She can’t leave her mother. Oliver scoffs about Fedra. No, Paula, says Gretel. She and Max are my real parents.
MV, in a short form-fitting dress, makes a grand entrance down the stairs. Eman’s eyes pop. Delicia is behind her, arms bent out, her sleeves pulled so far past her hands that she looks like an egret about to take off. Va –va – voom! say Brandon and Jorge who are standing next to Eman. Kristel and Ilitia make catty remarks about her dress.
MV thanks Brandon for coming, and says she’s changed her mind and has decided to stay, and asks if he’ll stay to eat with them. Fedra announces that he can’t possibly actually sit at a table with them, but Kristel tells her she’s rude and that he’ll be her special guest. She invites him to sit next to her. MV reminds Fedra that she and Bernardo are just in the house thanks to her (MV’s) generosity, and if she doesn’t like Brandon eating with them, she can always eat in the kitchen.
Fedra is taken aback that MV would insult her in front of her family and asks them if they’re not going to defend her. Axel smiles that she does deserve it a bit, since she puts down people who aren’t of her… he holds his arms heavenwards.
Muñeca and Lo encourage Ilitia to tell her news, so she does, saying it’s the happiest news of her life. She and Eman are going to have a baby! Caras impactadas, Eman’s most of all.
Gretel, putting her arm protectively around Paula, tells Oliver about Fedra’s threat to kill Paula, and that Fedra is free now because she burned the evidence. Oliver tells her he’s found out that Fedra and Garduño are mixed up together in some dirty business.
Paula, hugging and petting Gretel says she’s glad that her being Gretel’s mother is out in the open now. The two are very sweet together. She tells Oliver it’s his turn now to take care of her and protect her. He enthusiastically says he will, and admires how they look alike.
Everyone except MV is thrilled by Ilitia’s news. Kristel even congratulates her, adding that it’s too bad about what the pregnancy will do in terms of stretch marks and cellulite. Fedra reminds Kristel that it’s her own fault she’s barren.
Eman ask if she’s sure that she’s expecting HIS son? Fedra laughs that women just know these things. MV politely toasts the new member of the family and Ilitia smirks.
Max is furious that Benigno has just now showed up to give him the news of what’s going on upstairs. Of course he could have found out himself if he’d joined the group, but never mind. Benigno informs him of the big news. Max asks how Marianela took it.
Muñeca embraces Ilitia, and so does Lo, who jokes about her making him a grandfather – he’s too young. Oh, you and your delusions of youth, smiles Ilitia.
Fedra takes Ilitia’s and Eman’s hands and says she knows that this baby means that from now on, nothing and nobody can separate them. Eman looks stunned and Emil asks if he’s okay. No, says Eman, I’m … surprised. Ilitia happily says they’re more together than ever.
Kristel thinks they should toast to the two most “cool” families in the whole world, because every day they get closer. Muñeca asks Fedra to control her daughter, or maybe Lorenzo could. Lo pops off at her and Garduño steps up to tell him to watch how he talks to Muñeca – he wouldn’t like to wake up dead, now would he?
Jorge suggests that it’s Eman’s turn to toast to his first child, but Eman avers, saying he’s confused and doesn’t feel like there’s reason to toast.
Oliver and Gretel and Paula come to see Max. Paula tells Gretel to listen to her father, but Gretel says she doesn’t want to leave them alone. Max tells her it’s time for her to live her love and her life, luchar, etc. Paula tells her it’s her opportunity to be happy.
Ilitia tells Eman that he has to accept that this changes everything, but he doesn’t, saying Ilitia can’t be pregnant. Lo thinks Eman is insulting Ilitia, but Emil tells him he can’t come to his house and play the offended father, and Eman must have a good reason to be doubtful. Fedra agrees with Lo, and Muñeca appeals to Eman not to be so hard on Ilitia.
Eman, suddenly smiling, says he’s sure Ilitia made all this up in order not to have to sign the divorce papers. Lo is outraged, but Emil points out that Ilitia’s word may not be any more reliable than his is. Emil asks Eman to explain, so Eman announces to the whole wide world that the whole time they’ve been together they’ve never slept together. Ilitia points out that there was one time. He finds it hard to believe that she could get pregnant after just that once. She maintains it’s true.
Eman tells MV that he wants to talk to her, but Ilitia puts a stop to that, saying she’s a husband-stealer and the reason their marriage is bad. Eman for his part announces that MV is the only woman he loves and he’s not giving her up.
In another life, says Fedra, holding him to his responsibilities. He tries again to talk to MV, but she tears up the divorce papers and tells him to forget her. The party breaks up.
Gretel tells Oliver this is not the time to talk to the whole family, better just to talk to her papa. She catches herself and apologizes to Max, who says he understands that she will always think of Emil as a father, and that’s fine with him, and if Emil doesn’t agree to Gretel and Oliver being together, Max’ll give him what for. Paula suggests they have a family dinner in Max’s place. Gretel is overjoyed to be with her real family.
Gladiola brings a dinner tray to Doris, who is pining in her room. It’s been 2 weeks since Andre left the agency and she has no idea where he is and is worried something happened to him. Gladiola wonders why she cares, then gets very worried and asks if she slept with him. Doris just looks at her tearfully.
Eman tells everyone it’s something between just Ilitia and him. Emil tells Lo to leave, that there’s no reason for him to stay any longer. Lo gives Ilitia a kiss and warns Emil not to hurt her - how could he say, right when she’d just announced her pregnancy, that he loves somebody else?
Emil demands to know how Lo could threaten Eman after what he did to Kristel. Que? says Eman. You messed with my sister? He heads towards Lo, who tells him it’s over, and Kristel agrees. Axel holds him back. Kristel then says he was going to divorce Muñeca to marry her, right? That’s the exact same thing Eman wants to do! Fedra asks her to dial it down, and to remember that intelligence isn’t her forte.
Eman asks Ilitia to come to his room so they can talk. Kristel meantime says “the party is over” and struts about how she’s going to New York tomorrow and has to get her beauty sleep and besides this is boring. Eman tells Lo there’s no reason for him to stick around. He leaves and Emil glares at Ilitia.
Ilitia goes to see Eman in his room, scared about what he’s going to say. I saw your face when MV tore up those divorce papers, he says, it was a look of triumph. Tell me truth! She swears it’s true, they only lie like that in novelas. He finds it odd that he gets divorce papers and then wham! she’s pregnant. Plus he never told her he wanted to have a child with her. He tells her if it’s a lie, he’ll never forgive her, and he leaves.
Brandon, Jorge and MV arrive back at Netty’s, and Brandon tells her Eman isn’t worth one tear. Jorge agrees, and says Eman deceived her with that divorce story while he was spending the nights with his wife. Brandon thinks the whole family is a bunch of users. MV tells them Eman told her the truth, that he slept with Ilitia after he found out what happened between her and Jorge. She knows that what happened between them was a mistake. Brandon wants to know what it was, and Netty comes in and wants to know too.
Ilitia is sitting on the bed, sad, when Muñeca comes in to talk to her. She wants to know if she got pregnant in order to keep Eman. Ilitia sadly asks if she wouldn’t have done the same thing to keep Lo at her side. What use would that have been? says Muñeca. Ilitia implores her to talk to Eman so he won’t leave her. Muñeca says she will, so that Ilitia won’t suffer and so that the baby will have a father. Eman IS the father, isn’t he?
MV says Jorge didn’t force himself on her, they just drank too much. Jorge asks Brandon if something like that hasn’t happened to him, but Brandon thinks he should have been a gentleman.
Brandon’s phone rings; he finds out Mauricio has awakened from his coma. MV had no idea he was in the hospital, she thought he was in jail. Brandon explains that somebody tried to kill him. He leaves, and Netty asks Jorge to leave so she can talk alone with MV. He does. MV needs a hug from her aunt.
Kristel doesn’t – she’s’ lying on her bed, gloating and dreaming of stepping out of a convertible and being mobbed by admirers. Que cool! Fedra runs in and asks to borrow one of Kristel’s dresses (never mind that she’s about 5 sizes bigger), she’s going to go make sure Mauricio dies in the hospital. What?? says Kristel.
MV is telling Netty the whole story about Eman and Ilitia and the pregnancy. Netty thinks Ilitia is setting a trap, and that MV should tell Eman to insist on a pregnancy test. What’s more, she thinks Jorge is shifty, and that that whole thing about her drinking too much, and then having to tell Eman, it’s very fishy.
MV disagrees. Why, did she know that Fedra took her fingerprints and Jorge got them back? And that he found where the money was that Fedra had stolen after she killed Carlota?
Jose Maria walks in and asks what she’s saying.
Kristel tells her mama that she understands why Lo is her weakness – he really knows how to treat a woman, doesn’t he? Fedra says she could say the same thing about Mauricio. Naw, says Kristel.
Fedra tells Kristel that as long as she stays away from Lo, she can do whatever she wants with her life, and they shake and say they’re friends, and decide to go out together, and lie that they’re going to a movie. (I didn’t get what their plan is.)
Netty introduces MV to Jose Maria. He politely asks her again what it was she was saying when he came in. The transmission breaks up a lot, but it looks like MV has told about Fedra killing Carlota and fixing it so she got her money. She a murderer!
Avances: Lo tells Fedra that there was something in the wine he gave her. She arrives home doubled up, then we see Bernardo hovering over her collapsed form, anguished. Ilitia decides to try to seduce Eman, and knocks on his door, but he’s with MV.
