La Fea Más Bella #293-294 4/12/11 Mrs. Doubtfire Region 4, and The White Knight Conquers Three Dragons
.
Capitulo 293.
Read Julie’s original recap, then come back here to discuss it.
1. The police arrest Efren for unpaid child support.
2. Caro asks Omar why he’s mad. He saw the man leaving her house in the morning, talking about the incredible night. Caro starts laughing. She wanted to make her home nice, for when they live together, and she blew a circuit. Omar hitches up his calzones and stammers that he loves her.
3. The laison for DIF Nuevo Leon asks Lety to head the project and she can get married in the cathedral in Monterrey. Lety marvels, “The fea can marry the love of her life in the cathedral?” Luigi tells Lety he won’t go to Monterrey, for personal reasons. Lety leaves and Irma counsels Luigi, “Isn’t it time to forgive them?” Luigi says he can’t.
4. Lety talks to Aldo in her grown-up voice. No puede ser! Marcia gets another note from her secret admirer.
5. Fern tells Lety that he and Aurora must go to a dinner tonight. Jax is bringing a European media magnate, and Jax needs Aurora there to convince him. Lety promised to go out with Aldo. Fernando respects her “no” and says he’ll convince Jax to do something else. What a man! Lety points out that this is the only way Aldo can get back his restaurant, and she knows it’s the way for Fern to recover his father’s respect (Lety thinks about Fern’s needs!!!). She decides Lety and Aurora will go to the same restaurant.
6. Lola takes Efrain food, etc. in jail. His first words are, “I’m here because you sued me.” Lola says he’s there because he didn’t provide for his children. Jaz arrives so Lola leaves. She’s so worried for him that she suggests he put his assets in her name (por qué no pones lo tuyo a mi nombre?), so Lola doesn’t get them. Efren says, “All you care about is my money. You never loved me, did you?” She says that of course it was only for the money, because he’s fat and disgusting.
7. Fern, Lety, and Tom practice quick changes at the Restaurant of Five Names.*
8. That night Lety arrives at the restaurant with Aldo but soon changes to Aurora then Lety then Aurora then Lety then Aurora then.. Walter is impressed and agrees to the deal. Jax tells Fern Conceptos will make megabucks. Lety is so drunk that she arrives at Aldo’s table as Auroralety.
Capitulo 294A. Read 5ft Latina’s original recap.
1. Aldo stares at Auroralety. Jax is very impressed. Fernando gives Aldo a look that says, “You hurt her, you’re dead!” Aldo says there cannot be any justification for what he sees. Lety tries to explain.
2. Efren is released from jail. He tells Lola that he won’t be paying Jasmín’s expenses, so he can easily pay child support. Lola makes sure he recognizes that the hussy caused him to neglect care of his children. He takes her out and begs to get back together. She says his children need him but she doesn’t.
3. Jax tells Fern and Tom that it was a spactacular night. The TV show premires tomorrow, and he’s sure, after tonight, that it will be a grand success.
4. Aldo says, roughly: I would’ve accepted it if you had told me at the beginning, but not now. You trusted Fern and not me. You’re sad because you deceived herself. You tried to make someone suffer. You’re lost. You don’t know what you want in life. You’re running to and fro, but not working at making yourself better. But you’ve found what you really want – Fernando Mendiola. I saw the kiss. You had to disguise yourself to kiss him? I’m profoundly disappointed. He leaves despite Lety’s protests.
5. Fern comforts Lety and says he and Tom will take care of her. Tom has to go. Fern will take Lety home.
6. Tom finds Ali on the phone with her papi. He takes the phone then says, “He hung up.” Ali cries, “He always hangs up. He always leaves her alone. He always goes. It’s always the same.” Tom now knows Alicia better. Read the rest of the scene in the original recap.
7. Fern tries to cheer up Lety, but she’s sure Aldo is gone for good. Fern says she can count on him for anything. He doesn’t want to leave her alone like that, but she sends him home. What a man!
Capitulo 294B. Read Amanda’s original recap.
8. Carmina is very eager to comfort Aldo. She’s available for anything he needs. He says he feels like his life ended. Lety never stopped loving Fernando.
9. Marcia informs Fern that Omar moved in with Caro. Fern tells Marcia that he wants to win Lety back, and something happened that could be a sign. It could be his opportunity and he doesn’t want to miss it.
10. The morning scandal rag announces that Aurora is Lety. She cries that she’s the fea that no one can love. Fern says, “I fell in love with you like crazy, and I still love you just as much.”
11. The cuartel reads the story, and Irma reminds them of the way Fern and Auroralety kissed for the show. She says those two love each other like crazy.
12. Carmina barges in and tells Lety that Aldo left for Acapulco. Lety hurt him so much that he can’t stand to be in the same city as her, and he never wants to see her again. Lety says she needs to hear that from Aldo, not Carmina. Carmina says today she’s going to move in with Aldo. Fern drags her out of the office.
13. Fern tells Lety he needs to know what she’s thinking (because he has to decide whether to fight to win her back), and to him Aldo looks like he’s throwing a tantrum.
14. Erasmo comes in next, yelling at Lety that it’s disgraceful and there can be no excuse. Fern stands up to him and says he doesn’t have the right to judge her. Lety did it with good intentions. Erasmo yells, “What right do you have?” He answers, “Because I love your daughter!”
15. Omar sees the paper and is quaking. Caro worries how he’ll react. Marcia said he didn’t love Aurora. Now his pride is hurt because he was going out with a fea. It’s bad for his image. Luigi freaks out too.
16. Omar thanks Lety. Pop asks why. Omar says he was horrible to Lety and made her suffer terribly. But as Aurora she taught him a lesson. He has learned to value women, and he fell in love with a wonderful woman. Pop forgives Lety, as Fern watches lovingly.
17. Next Fern reams out Jax. Jax says they’ll make big bucks. Fern yells that he cares much more about people than about companies. Jax says Fern needs to be cold to be successful. Fern says he was before, but he lost the woman who he loves and who made him happy. He yells, “Didn’t you realize you could ruin her life? Lety doesn’t deserve what you’ve done to her.”
18. Everyone in Lety’s office hears him. MamaJ says he’s incredible. Irma says his love for Lety made him that way. Erasmo says Aldo loves her more. The Fern Team Captains say Fern is defending Lety, and Aldo is nowhere to be found. Lety says he got mad at her and left town. Fern shoos them out to watch the screening of the show.

Eva Luna #110 Mon 4/11/11 Perhaps Some Solutions Just Lead to More Problems; P.2 It Pays to Be a Boy Scout--Just Ask Dan!
Eva Luna Finale
P.1 –
Perhaps Some Solutions Just Lead to More Problems
As we j.i.p. (join in progress) tonight’s fantasy fin, Daniel tries to convince Eva not to marry Leo because deep down she still really loves him as much as he loves her. He swears he doesn’t know how he came to have Liliana in bed with him and there is absolutely nothing going on between them; the only real thing preventing them from getting back together is who really killed her daddy. He needs time to prove to her that Leo is the culprit and not him. Eva, whose head hurts from trying to use her brain to reason through things logically, doesn’t want to listen to anything more Dano has to say, especially cuz she’s still ticked about seeing him with leggy Lil in bed. She gets frustrated and races out the door.
At the same time, outside the front of the ad agency, El Gallo sets a trap for Leonardo by saying that Tony didn’t get any merchandise the night before because he was killed during the meet. Leo pretends to be surprised. El Gallo asks if he has any idea who would have ordered a hit on Tony. Leo says Tony was pretty aggressive and probably made a lot of enemies that way. He was even confrontational with him a number of times and El Gallo knows that. Leo goes back inside the building. El Gallo thinks to himself that now he knows it was Le, and he’ll pay for double-crossing him!
At the jail, the lady lawyer comes to see Marcela and tells her that her boss sees no hope for an appeal. Marci screams and throws a fit. Suddenly she can’t breathe and falls onto the table. A guard races over to help her.
In her hospital room, meanwhile, Victoria wonders why Justa is there. Justa says she’s family and as her mother she of course wanted to be there. Icky insists to Justa that she isn’t anything to her and tells her to leave. Justa tries to explain to Icky how she was stolen from her arms as soon as she was born, how everyone there lied to her that Icky was stillborn, how she really believed it at first, then looked everywhere for a trace of her, dreaming some day of finding her alive. Justa breaks downs into tears. The rejection is breaking her heart, she says. Ick-toria won’t have anything to do with her so, finally, Justa gives up and leaves. As she goes out the door, though, Julio is coming in. She won’t speak to him because she’s so mortified and frustrated over Icky’s rejection. He wants to go after her, but Icky begs him to stay and to let Justa go on her way.
Leo sits down at his desk and tells himself that now he’s gotten rid of Tony, the only thing missing is to finish with Alicia.
Ali is back at work. Deb comes to speak to her there. Ali says she wants to finish their chat from the other day. She and the baby-daddy are going to tell Eva in a couple of days about the baby. Deb wants to know why all the mystery over who the baby-daddy is. Ali says she’s didn’t tell Eva when she had the chance before and now it’s even more difficult to tell her than before. From the sigh Deb gives, it must be still about as clear as mud. (Viewerville didn’t get much satisfaction from her answers either.)
Meanwhile, in the clinic infirmary, the doctor (all I know is he’s got a white coat on) tells the director that Marci suffered a heart attack and needs to be transferred to a regular hospital. The director says fine and leaves. The “doctor” then bends over Marci and whispers that things have gone well so far, but the next step is going to be more difficult. She takes off her mask and says in a very healthy voice that she’d rather die in the escape attempt than live the rest of her life in prison. El Gallo’s plan has been set in motion.
Back at the ad agency, Dano barges into Leo’s office and demands to talk to him immediately. Leo refuses, but Dano insists. Leo says since when did I start taking orders from you? Dan says it’s no order, but he can take it any way he likes. He’s just there to put him on notice [sobre aviso]. Leo is like, “--Hey, if you’re here to warn me not to marry Eva, I’ve heard it a thousand times.” Dan just smiles a bit. “--No, you’re not going to marry her.” Leo says he imagine that this entire scene is because Lili told him the wedding was in a week. Dano says yeah, she told him, but the wedding is still in doubt. Leo says there’s no way Dan can stop him. Dan says he won’t stop it. It will be Leo himself who stops it. Leo sneers a bit and says Dan’s gone nuts. Dan ignores the insult. He accuses Leo again of killing Eva’s father and says that now he has proof of it. This gets Leo’s attention.
At the Villanueva manse, Laurita and Francisco are plotting again to help him win back Jackie. Laurita tells Jackie that Franc’s packing his suitcase and quiting his job for good today. She tells Jackie that she’s the only one who can convince him to stay. Jackie falls for the act and races up to talk Franc into staying--until she realizes that his suitcase is empty. She raises Cain with him and Laurita, She’s had it with the lies and tricks. Laurita is forced to admit she planned the whole thing with him. Jackie is so upset that she decides to quit her job and leave. Franc has heard the whole discussion from behind the pillar. He throws a worried glance at Laurita. She mouths at him to do something already! FF>>
Back in the city, Marci is put into the ambulance. Everyone’s been paid off and the aids take Marci out of the ambulance in a doctor’s coat and put her into a waiting SUV.
Leo tells Dan he’s got no proof it’s him at all. Dano lies about having an eye witness who just came forward and identified him from a photo as the driver. Leo says nobody would believe it since it happened so long ago. He’s going to tell Eva that Dano paid the guy to fake it and testify against him. Dan says no, Leo knows it’s the truth and he should be a man and admit it! This gets Leo’s goat. Leo’s swelled head gets the best of him and he finally yells back at Dan that yeah, he did kill the guy, and so what! Eva is never going to find out and Dan will never be able to prove it!
Dan, incredulous, asks Leo how he could run over that man and just leave him lying there! Leo, the sociopath, says because the imbecile was stupid enough to be crossing the street and to get in his way. He wasn’t going to pay for it. Dan asks why Leo framed him for it? Leo says with a hint of pride that it was because he’d heard Dan and Eva were getting married in secret and that was the only way to split them up. Dan calls him despicable. Leo says yeah, and you are the owner of the car and for me it was very easy getting you to take the bait [caer en la trampa]. (That’s the understatement of the decade, Leo.) Dan tells him to go and tell Eva the truth. Leo is a proud self-preservationist so he refuses. Dan insists he’s going to pay for the crime. Leo doesn’t think so. Dan warns him he’s not going to get his own way. Leo reminds him of the bet he made with Dan over Eva and that he is still determined to win. She’s going to be his and she’s going to marry him. Dan is grins and says no she won’t cuz he’s going to stop that wedding and he can go to the bank on it! [tenlo por seguro]
A minute later Dan goes back into his office and tells Giorgio what just happened. It worked because he realized that Leo’s ego is his worst enemy. “--What a beast! He’s the same as his mother! You should have seen the pride when he told me he’d run Eva’s father over and left him dying and then later framed me for it in order to split me and Eva up!” Dan then takes out a pocket recorder he used to record Leo’s confession. (Dun-duhn-duhnnnn!) Gg suggests he go straight to the police with it, but Dan says not before he’s exposed [desenmascar] him to Eva. He races into her office but realizes a second later that the office is empty. Olga tells him she left to clear her head. She’ll be back later. Ok, he says, let him know the instant she gets back.
Down the hall in his office, Leo paces and considers what to do next now that he’s admitted this guilt to Dan. Stay calm, he tells himself. “--Dan’s an idiot. Don’t lose your bearings. Take care of the problem with Alicia.”
Back at the hospital, in Icky’s room, Julio tells V-icky that he and Justa are there to help her with her problem. V-icky thinks there are too many problems to overcome. Julio tells her that both Dan and Eva agreed to drop the charges if and when she agrees to get some therapy.
Speaking of Eva, it seems she needs a little mental counseling herself. Eva’s emotionally confused. She’s at the ocean remembering making love that night with Dano and the horrible realization (with that push from Leo) that Daniel was the one who ran down her daddy and did him in. She weighs Dan’s denial of the dastardly deed against Leo’s denial of Dan’s denial.... Ok. She’s made her decision. She’ll marry Leo! (Say what? Vieweville does a major double-take--no make that a quadruple take!) Eva, as the saying goes, just decided to cut off her nose to spite her face. (Do they treat for masochistic tendencies?)
Later that day, Leo offers to bring Ali her glass of warm milk as a favor to Tia Mathilde. Tilde says fine. Leo first secretly pours some of the same drops his mother used on Claudia into Alicia’s glass of milk. He sweet talks Ali, while she drinks her milk, about resting more because the health of their baby is so important to him. He has a surprise for her, he says, with a sparkling crocodile smile. Tomorrow morning he will go with her to speak to Eva; and they will tell her that he’s the baby-daddy. Ali tries to kiss him for it but he jerks away and refuses. (No way that slimy, scheming dude’s getting near her poison-mouth!)
Ick-toria is alone in her hospital room now. She considers what her father told her about having a second chance at life and getting some therapy when she gets an unexpected visitor --Renata!
Lili comes by to try getting her hooks into Dan again. This time the excuse is that she wanted to talk to him about having a celebration dinner for Laurita’s return from that boarding school. She says Laurita has been really ignored with all that’s happened recently. Dan thinks she’s terrific for being so thoughtful. Lil gets the hint the guy’s got work to do and so she leaves. He checks again to see if Eva’s back but she isn’t.
At the same time, Ali starts cramping up and screaming. Tilde comes in to see what’s happened. Leo hears the screams, smiles to himself and waits a few more seconds before racing in and offering to take Ali to the hospital.
Lili hangs around the reception desk waiting for Eva to show. As soon as Eva walks in, Lil makes a big to do about how happy she is that Daniel asked her to join him/live with him? Eva glances over at her and frowns.
Eva sits down at her desk and Olga tells her that Dan’s been anxious to see her about something and has asked numerous times if she’d gotten back or not. Eva is miffed again, thanks to Lil, and says no she can’t see him. Olga says it seemed extremely urgent. So, Eva goes to his office and barges in. She wants to know what was so urgent. He excitedly tells her that he can prove his innocence. She rolls her eyes.
Icky tells Ren that she knows now what Ren did all those years ago, stealing her from her real mother and giving her away to Marcela. Ren asks her to forgive her. She explains how she acted out of jealousy and selfishness. Icky says she’d be a hypocrite if she said she was mad about it cuz after all, she did grow up with her father and was surrounded by luxury. But that woman (Marci) was envious and evil, and ready to use her to get what she wanted. She never would have expected that of Ren. Ren says she’d always loved her as she was her niece, but she never knew how to get her to understand. Icky says well, it’s her turn to ask forgiveness and grabs Ren’s hand.
Back in Dan’s office, he is trying to explain that he managed to get the most convincing evidence ever that he’s innocent. Eva says Leo warned her he’d make something else up. No, he says and he shows her the pocket recorder. She’s got to hear it because he has gotten someone’s statement as proof! Suddenly Olga rushes in with word about Ali being taken to the hospital for some emergency. (The recording will have to wait!) Dan wants to go to the hospital with Eva, but Eva tells him no way! She doesn’t need any more problems with him!
At Deb’s, the detective in charge of Marci’s capture comes to give her a heads-up that Mad Marci’s escaped and is probably on the prowl.
While at the hospital, Leo gets a call from El Gallo that some problem concerning Tony’s death has come up. He needs to speak to Leo that night, no ifs, ands, or buts! After El Gallo hangs up, Tony gets upset needing to know that Gallo believes him about Leo. Gallo says he does, but he had to prove it for himself. El Gallo tells Tony that he wants him to be there at the meet tonight so Leo will see that he’s really alive and that he found out how Leo betrayed his trust and will die because of it! Just then Marci barges into El Gallo’s office (OMG! and looking like a Cher wanna-be circa 1990-95). She needs to speak to him alone! Tony exits.
Eva races into the hospital lounge and finds Leo there. He gives her the run down.
Marci wants her new identity papers. El Gallo tells Marci he wants to know how she plans to pay him first. He wants his money. She tells him Leo is supposed to pay him. Gallo guffaws. That’s not going to work. She asks for time. He gives in. She starts to leave but he wants a little sugar from her first. She leaves afterwards.
Eva goes out to the front desk to sign papers for the hospital. Leo says he’ll watch over Ali for her. Once Eva’s gone, he starts to crow to the unconscious Ali that he got her there just in time to save her, but not the baby. He couldn’t allow her to die, he says, because that would have set the wedding date back--and that he wouldn’t have liked one bit! (a cold S.O.B. if there ever was one!)
Gallo makes a call to one of his henchmen and tells him the meet with Leo is on and to make sure everybody’s there because this rat’s not getting out of there alive! Marci comes back in for something and may have heard what El Gallo was saying.
Ali is awake and crying over the loss of the baby. Leo persuades her that now the baby’s lost, there’s no reason to let Eva know that he was the father or that they were ever involved. Eva walks in at that point, but it isn’t clear if she heard him. Leo turns around and looks a little sheepishly at her.
Marci tells El Gallo that she came back for a gun. He gives her one and says he figures she’ll use it to do in all her enemies. Marci says all but Eva. She has something much more “sparkling” for her end.
Ren goes to Justa’s parish priest, introduces herself and asks to make confession.
Eva tries to cheer Ali up. Deb comes in to lend emotional support also.
Meanwhile, Jackie has her bag packed and is leaving. Franc begs her to stay. FF>>
In the hospital lounge, Leo lies to Eva and tells her that Dan’s paid a witness to make a statement to the police stating he wasn’t the driver of the car. Eva says there was a reason then that he was so insistent in having her hear the witness’s statement. Leo warns her off him. “--Don’t pay attention to him. Isn’t it convenient that two years later he suddenly has a witness? Don’t let him trick you.” Deb comes into the waiting area just then with the news of Marci’s escape.
Back at the Villanueva manse, Franco finally is honest about his feelings for Jackie. She is his friend and gives him advice, he pleads. She’s the love of his life and is the only woman who’s known how to love him for what he is: poor and a liar. She’s taught him to love and respect her. He’d wait his whole life for her if she leaves because without her there is no Francisco. “--Just tell me what I have to do to make you stay.” Jackie melts. She’ll stay. They kiss. FF>>
That night Leo and his goons come armed and ready to rumble. “--You have to be prepared when it’s a matter life and death.” El Gallo agrees and then he and his men pull their guns on Leo. Leo’s guys have to drop their weapons. El Gallo brings up the hit on Tony and says he warned Leo not to touch Tony. Leo asks how he found out. El Gallo says he was wounded before being sent to the afterlife and he told me so. Tony walks up and shows himself. Leo is ruh-roh! impactado and tries some negotiating, but El Gallo isn't interested. El Gallo hands the gun to Tony to do the hit. Tony takes the gun and snarls over at Leo.
============================================================

It Pays to Be a Boy Scout--Just Ask Dan!
P.2
El Gallo eggs Tony on about all the ways Leo abused and used him. Unfortunately, Tony (as Viewerville and Leonardo both know by now) can’t pull the trigger and he hesitates a second too long. Leo whips out a gun and shoots him and El Gallo. The gunfight’s on! Everybody’s henchmen shoot each other dead.
Back at Eva’s, she and Dan are in the living room playing with Pablito. Tilde leaves to put him to bed. Eva says she’s tired and wants to take a bath. Dan begs her to stay a bit longer because she needs to hear what’s on that recording and says sorry, but he’s not leaving till she does. Eva says no and that the whole thing’s just ridiculous! Leo already told her it’s the witness he told her about. Dan pleads with her. “--No, it isn’t a witness’s testimony! You’ve got to listen to it!”
Finally it’s El Gallo and Leo in the end. El Gallo gets the upper hand and has Leo trapped. He gets ready to pull the trigger. “--I told you not to betray me. I’m going to kill you, you damned wretch! [condenado]” Kaboom! El Gallo gets a shot through the heart. Leo’s eyes go wide. Mad, murderous Marci has hit her mark. (Yep, Mama Bear has protected her cub once again.--Rats!) “--Mama! How did you know where I was?” Marci explains she’d overheard him telling his goons about the meet. Leo is worried about what’s going to happen to her now. She tells him not to worry about her. He must get back to Eva and marry her. Yes, they’ll meet up again. Just get going already and leave her alone! Leo scurries off. “--Yeah, hurry up and get married, although you are going to be widowed.”
Marci turns her attention to El Gallo and starts weeping over his body. “--Leonardo is your son, my love! I couldn’t let you kill him! You are the only man I loved, Gallo!”
A day or two later, Justa, Ricardo and Adrian are discussing the small wedding Leo and Eva have invited them to attend. Adrian is a little confused cuz he’s not going and Justa explains why not. She and Ric change the subject to where Tony’s been the last few days and whether to report him as missing or not. Don Ric says he already had because he’d been worried that they hadn’t heard from him for so long. FF>>
Back at Eva’s, Mathilde and Alicia are upset that Eva is dead set on marrying Leo when they both believe she really loves Daniel. Ali says Leo doesn’t deserve her. Tilde says, speaking of Dano, that it’s high time he proves his innocence. Ali agrees.
Across the way, Dan is getting dressed to go to Eva and Leo’s wedding. Liliana asks him if he’s sure he wants to do this. Dan says absolutely, cuz he won’t give up until he hears Eva actually say “I do” to Leo. (Viewerville notes the funereal attire Dan’s chosen to wear.) She asks if he still thinks the wedding has a chance of being scotched. He tells her he does. Lil seems doubtful.
Meanwhile, Eva is getting ready as Ali comes in to try to talk her out of it. “--How about I wear the earrings Leo gave me?” Ali grabs the other earring from Eva’s hand and begs her not to marry Leo. He’s just not right for her! Eva is sympathetic but says she knows what she’s doing. Ali finally blurts out that he was the baby-daddy! Eva is saucer-eyed-and-suck-it-in impactada!
In the huge living room, the wedding guests are gathering. Giorgio, Olga, the receptionist and Dan’s secretary are gossiping about how Victoria finally agreed to give Dano his divorce. The receptionist says Eva still believes he killed her father. Gg says he knows she doesn’t believe it but he knows Dan didn’t. Just then Renata introduces Leo to the judge who’s doing the civil ceremony. Leo promises him to keep things punctual and then grabs Tilde to tell Eva any time now, since all the guests are there. Tilde notes Deb and Detective Varela. Neither of them knew that Deb and he were a couple now. Once Tilde leaves, he smiles to himself and thinks, yeah! in just a few minutes more Eva will be his forever. (Viewerville let out a communal groan and eye-roll. The telenovela gods are really pushin’ it here!) Det. Varela and he shoot the breeze a moment. He kids Leo about planning anything else than his wedding then laughs that he’ s a guy who’s always on the job. Leo tells himself it always pays to keep one’s guard up and leaves the room briefly.
Back in her room, Eva gives Ali holy Hell for not telling her until now about her affair with Leo. Ali tearfully tells her that she wanted to tell her that she’d fallen in love with him, but he frightened her off it by convincing her not to because Eva would think the worst of her. Eva angrily agrees. “--And he was right about that!” Ali says anyway, he promised her they’d go tell her together that he was the father. “--And he knew?” Yep. She’d told him the same day she’d found out, says Ali, but she’d already put an end to their relationship a while before. So, if she’s begging Eva now not to go through with it, it’s for her own good. Eva asks if she’s sure he doesn’t mean anything to her now. Ali swears he doesn’t. Just then Tilde comes in and says Leo and the guests are all waiting. Ali and Eva share painful stares. (Viewerville is on pins and needles wondering if Eva will call the whole thing off now. Some of us are even taking bets on how painful it’s gonna be for our resident slime-bucket, Mr. He Who Comes Up From The Deep.)
Gg offers Leo a bit of assistance just as Dano and Leggy Lil arrive. Leo warns Dan that if he’s come to stop the wedding, it isn’t gonna work! Dan says no, he’s only there as a guest like any other. (Leo, the guy’s her employee. What would it look like if he hadn’t? All of the employees are there!) A bit of males-in-heat locking horns, snorting and sniffing ensues here. He tells Dan he won’t let him ruin it for him. Dan says it won’t be him that does that. It’ll be Leo himself who does that. Lil tells them to cool their jets cuz the wedding’s about to start. Eva shows up just then and the crowd of employees begin to clap. (Makes you wonder if they’re all doing it just to keep their paychecks coming in. I mean I’m jes sayin’..... Anyway, sure is huge for an “intimate gathering.”) Leo and she exchange smiles.
Back at Dan’s, Jackie gets a surprise bouquet from a mysterious admirer. The note says that Adriancito, Laurita and she must go on a scavenger hunt for clues to who it’s from. (If you haven’t guessed by now, Jackie’s just a kid at heart.) They go from room to room. FF>>
Back at the wedding, Eva and Leo have the judge start the proceedings. Dan looks about ready to lose it. The judge asks if there’s anyone there who can show why these two shouldn’t be joined in matrimony to speak up. Dan can’t stand it any longer and starts to say something, but Eva beats him to it and the guests all gasp. (Viewerville suddenly glues their eyes to the screen.)
Eventually Jackie and the kids get to a room where there are two roses waiting for her. Franc pops out, opens up a ring box and proposes. Jackie only takes a second to think it over before she accepts. He slips the engagement ring on her finger. Everybody’s happy! Smoochies. FF>>
Back to the halted wedding across the way, Eva screams at Leo that she’s going to show why the two of them can’t marry. Mr. Slick is finally at a loss for words. He asks what she’s talking about. He doesn’t understand! “--You killed my father! You ran him over!” “--No, no! I told you that Daniel’s witness is a fake, that he’s paying that person to blame me! It was Daniel who killed him. You have to believe me! Listen to me, my love!” The guests are all eyes and ears, especially Det. Varela. Just then a fresh-faced Victoria in a sweet pony-tail and loosely fitting print sun-dress steps out of the crowd to gets her chance at pay-back. “--Daniel’s telling the truth! You asked to borrow his car that day and came back saying you’d run into a tree, but really you ran a man over. Claudia told me that when you used to dream and would relive the accident! You yourself admitted it!”
Eva asks Leo just how stupid he thinks she is. (I wouldn’t go there, Eva. Really I wouldn’t!) He denies having ever confessed to anything. Eva has Gg play the tape recorder so there’s no doubt. The guests hear Leo confessing to Dan that day. Dano grins from ear to ear. Leo looks like he’s just been depants-ed on the playground. Ali and Tilde are listening in horror--not that it should surprise Ali, the way Leo always abused her, but still, this is Ali we’re talking about. Her Happy Meal has always been missing a French fry or two. The camera pans to Don Julio whose original negative feelings towards his step-son have finally been justified. Lily is mortified and wonders probably if the arrogant fool mentioned anything about her during that truth-a-thon.
Varela looks around at some of the men in the crowd. They nod back. It seems that Varela must have gotten the heads up from Eva or Dano already or they wouldn’t have all been there. Leo is frozen with embarrassment. Eva screams at him. “--I will never marry you. I will never forgive you for killing my father and I will never forgive you for what you did to my sister!” She hauls off and slaps him across his face so hard it sounds like a gunshot. “--I’m going to get even with you --Today!” Suddenly Leo whips out his pistol, grabs Eva, and aims the gun at her neck. Varela and his men also draw theirs. Leo swears he’ll kill her and he means it. (Well, he does come by it honestly, considering his gene pool.) The crowd cowers. Uni puts us on pause while it attempts to pay for this four hour novela-fest.
It’s all chaos as Uni presses the play button once more. Leo threatens to shoot mouthy Dan. If she not going to be Leo’s then.... Suddenly Icky races in front of Dan, but he shoves her behind him. She’s not going anywhere, she screams. Suddenly the Bimbutt (whose dress really does a great job of finally disguising that disgustingly over-defined derriere) decides it’s time to tell the world about Lileach and Leo’s unholy alliance now, too! Dan is once again shell-shocked to learn that his BFF and hers were both scheming against him. “--What?? What are you saying???” “--Yes, Daniel. Leo hired her to seduce you since he found out you were going to leave me, so that then he could avoid you getting back with Eva!” The way the two met (out on the ocean) was all planned by Lil and Leo together, she yells over the din.
Back at Dan’s place, Franco explains the meaning of the three roses: one is to apologize for disrespectful behavior towards her; one is to thank her for accepting to marry him; the third is to signify his promise never to lie again and to make her the happiest woman in the world. Kissies and hugs. FF>>
Back to the Boda de Bedlam: Lil denies it all. Leo threatens to kill Ick-toria if she doesn’t shut her mouth and fast. Bimbutt babbles on, tho’. She’s on a roll and Claw’s pregnancy comes out next. “--He got Claudia pregnant and afterwards had my mother put poison in her tea so she’d lose the baby! That's what he must have done to you, Alicia, to make you lose your baby!” [Thanks to martai for clearing all of Icky's poorly audible speech up!] Leo starts to pull the trigger and Ren jumps in front of V-icky, taking the bullet Leo meant for her. Leo takes advantage of the further chaos to race off with Eva as hostage. The cops race after him. Gg calls 911 for Ren right away. (Now that is a switch!)
Outside, Leo forces Eva behind Dan’s blue Vette to keep from getting shot. Eva tells him to let her go because he’ll never get away with this. He tells her his only crime was loving her. Eva screams back that he doesn’t love anybody but himself! Let me go! You killed my father and caused my sister to lose her baby. He admits he had to because Ali threatened to tell her all about it. Suddenly Dan’s out there trying to be the voice of reason. (You’ve got to be kidding! He’s a walking bulls-eye in black and blond!) “--Let her go!” Leo threatens to send him to the next life.
Back inside the manse, the ambulance is on the way, but not soon enough for the remorseful Renata. Icky cries and holds Ren’s head. “--Why?” Ren says she couldn’t allow her to be lost again. Now, she says, it’s time she and her mother have a chance together. It was all her fault the two were apart all those years. Julio tries to keep her hanging on. Ren tells him she loved him in silence and is taking that love with her as a comfort. Don’t let her death be in vain, she pleads with Icky. The three hold hands. V-icky promises. Renata dies in her arms. Julio bends down and closes her eyes.
Dan’s still outside trying to make a crazy man see reason. “Let her go. You’ve already caused enough harm!” Leo’s answer is a bullet in Dano’s shoulder. Dan falls to the ground. Eva screams. One of the cops kneecaps Leo. (oofda!) Eva manages to escape and races over to Dan as a second bullet hits Leo in the gut. (Now that would be a fitting way for Leo to leave us all, considering both shots are some of the most painful to endure. A gut wound is supposed to be one of the most painful ways to die, but maybe the adrenaline keeps him from feeling anything. Viewerville would hope not, considering.) The cops keep shooting and wounding him. Leo keeps shooting back. Eventually he’s hit from the back by a cop in an SUV and falls dead to the ground.
Eva finds Dan hiding behind a car and begs forgiveness. Dan wants her to forgive him also. They profess their love for each other and agree they’re going to be happy together from here on out.
Time passes and Renata’s buried. All the remaining good guys attend her funeral. She will be missed.
In another part of the city, Mad Marci is wandering the streets aimlessly and crying as she reads the big article in the newspaper about Leo’s dying in the big shootout. “‘’Nooo! It has to be a mistake!” It’s all Eva’s fault, damn her! She’ll pay!
After the funeral Icky comes back to the boarding house with the others and apologizes to him, Eva, and Laurita. Eva and Dan agree that there’s nothing to be gained by keeping grudges. Icky says well, she knows what she did and realizes her daddy was right. She invented a love that really wasn’t there. She and Dan really were never in love. and it was only a deep friendship and affection. Eva never robbed her of anything since it never existed in the first place. Most of all she want to apologize to Laurita for being the meanest of all to her and for never learning how to love her. She couldn’t since she didn’t know how to love herself first. She was a witch and Laurita was right that evil witches have no reason to be loved. Laurita says she forgives her also. Icky then tells them that the next day her mother and father are taking her somewhere that she can stay for a while and get the help she needs. But she’s also ready to go to jail if need be since she’s the one, she says, who caused Sabrina's misfortune.
That night Pablito’s crying. Eva comes in to see what the problem is. Marci slams the door shut behind Eva and locks her in. She’s brought a jug of gasoline and lit candles for her return visit. “--Now you’re going to see what I’m capable of! I have a surprise for you!” She enjoys Eva’s panic and starts to cackle. She pour gas everywhere. “--The guards aren’t going to be able to do anything for you, no more than any of the others, like Gustavo, Bruno and Rosaura!” “--You killed them?” “--Sure, anybody who got to be a nuisance for me or who tricked me.” “--You’re a monster, Marcela!” No, she says, Eva is because she ruined all her plans once she came into her home! Eva forced her to poison Julio and she managed to turn her son against her!! “--You’re to blame for all my problems and I hate you, damn you!! My son died because of you! He suffered because of you!! You took everything away from me--my home, my family...EVERYTHING!” Marci takes a candle and sets te room on fire. Eva keeps screaming for Tilde or somebody to help her.
The smoke alarm goes off and Tilde runs into the hall and hears the commotion inside the room. The door is locked! Eva’s trapped and there’s smoke seeping out from the fire. Tilde runs off to get help. Inside Marci blocks Eva from getting to the door and holds a burning candle out as a weapon. She screams that she’s going to burn her and her son alive along with herself. Not Daniel, not anybody will be able to help her now! Eva’s her guest of honor to Hell!
Back at the boarding house, the other detective comes by to tell them he thinks he’s found Tony. It turns out Tony was shot and left unconscious a number of days back. They transferred him to critical care unit at he hospital and he’s been hospitalized ever since. They were able to identify him from the picture they left with him when they made out the MP report.
The fire is getting worse. Suddenly Tilde has the key and unlocks the door. (Hmm. That was simple enough. You didn't think of that, did you Marci? We’ll give you a pass since you’ve been a bit out of it recently.) Tilde grabs the baby from Eva’s arms as she runs to the open door. Marci manages to grab Eva and drag her back into the burning room, though. They wrestle and Eva manages to push Marci off her. Marci slips and falls just as a burning beam drops down from the ceiling. Marci doesn’t care. She screams again how much she hates Eva. She’s got no reason to live now. Dan races in and grabs Eva away from the flames. There’s nothing he can do to save Marcela.
Suddenly Marci see’s Leo beckoning her through the flames. She says it’s Eva’s fault that her he turned against her. He is the thing she loves most in her life. Leo keeps beckoning to her (no doubt he’s asking her to join him in Hell where I’m sure they’re both to be honored and permanent residents). Suddenly a glass and wood shelf falls on her and she’s swallowed up by the flames. (Yep, one toasted, creamy marshmallow. Snacks, anyone?)
Across town, Ric and Justa visit Tony in the hospital and explain why they hadn’t been there for him earlier. They’d found him unconscious, wounded and without any I.D. Tony asks Ric to bring him back a certain envelope from his room. He asks Justa to have Eva, Dan, and Alicia to come together and listen to what he has to tell them.
The next day the papers don’t have anything on Marcela Arismendi, but Giorgio gives the girls at the ad agency the scoop about all the others that Eva confirmed Marci had murdered, like Bruno in Miami, etc. “--Who’d a thunk it?!” Across the way, Dan and Eva are chatting and walking arm in arm. Once the house is repaired, Julio’s selling it. Dan says great, and then he and she will go house-hunting for themselves. He tells her that Jackie and Franc are getting married the month after their wedding. Just then Ali rushes in with news about Tony and his needing to speak to the three of them. He was finally found, and was in the hospital after Leo shot him. They race over to see him.
Outside, Lil is arrested for planning Laurita and Eva’s kidnapping.
A bit later, Tony tells Eva, Alicia and Dan that he has more reasons to ask for their forgiveness. He admits to Ali that he tried blackmailing Eva when she was wanted for stealing the twenty-five grand. Eva was right to call him a thief since he threatened to harm Ali and turn her into the police if she didn’t give him 10 thou of it. He tells Dan that he was the one Leo had paid to call him about the car part as a way to split Eva and him up before the wedding. Then Tony takes out the envelope with all the secret photos of Leo and Eva in bed, and then tells them that Leo had drugged and undressed her without her knowing it in order to take them. Ali is mad at first, but then forgives him. She promises to help him turn over a new leaf, because he’s the only guy who’ll ever make her happy.
At the same time, Justa, Julio and V-icky, now in innocent white, arrive at the mental hospital. The doctor says she’ll be able to rejoin society in no time at all. They’re all going to try to do their best to learn from their mistakes and become a happy familial entity of …some sort.
Later, they visit Lili in jail. She begs Eva to convince Dan to drop the charges against her. It was all V-icky’s fault anyway. She confused her. Eva remind her that there was someone who called to give Vic advice, and that somebody was Lil. She agrees to tell them the whole truth (no doubt the Lileach version) if they’d just drop the charges. I think from the way they look at the scuffs on their shoes it’s going to be all broken nails and split ends for Lil from now on.
Time passes as the wedding approaches. Lots of celebs will be attending. Ali tells her that Tony went to the college and told them the truth about what he’d done to force her entrance. They have allowed her to re-register and so she’s going back to school. Dan comes in with another surprise. It’s outside. They go out and it’s the same type of car he gave her the first time he proposed and he has the same engagement ring, also. He kept it after Ali returned it to him.
Marisol’s songs hit the top of the charts.
Adriancito gets accepted into the same private prep school as Laurita on a scholarship.
The wedding day is finally here. Dan and Laurita have a quick father-daughter chat before they head for the church and Laurita learns that Pablito is her little brother.
Franc locks his keys in the car and we get a shameless plug for On-Star.
Outside the church, Eva says a prayer to the virgencita for teaching her how to overcome her troubles, bringing her mother back to her, and for giving her Daniel, the most wonderful man on Earth.
Dan also prays to the vircencita to thank her for returning his children to him and for giving him Eva who he promises to make the happiest woman in the world.
Franc’s the best man. Jackie’s the maid of honor. Julio walks Eva down the aisle. Deb and Ali put the bands around them Laurita surprises everyone by singing the Ave Maria. Dan and Eva promise eternal love to each other and kiss. Once the ceremony’s over we get no reception, only aerial views of the amusement park they visit on their honeymoon.
Well, never were two people more made for each other, or deserving of each other, than these two--and you can take that anyway you like.

La Fea Más Bella #291-292 4/11/11 Weddings, Flowers, Hugs, Photos, Te amo’s. Just not from the same people.
Capitulo 291.
Read k-Fuego’s original recap, then come back here to discuss it.
1. Irma, Juana and Marta alert Fernando that Lety’s free. Irma knows Lety can only be happy by Fern’s side. Sara and Lola warn Aldo that Lety canceled the wedding. He should hurry so Fern doesn’t swoop in.
2. Aldo says Lety loves him and she’s just throwing a tantrum right now, so he’ll wait until she calms down. “I know she loves me. If she decides to be with Fern, that means she doesn’t really love me. And there is nothing one can do against that.” (How’s that for double-speak?) Then I think he says, “Everything that one loves, he loves, and I love Lety.” (Geesh! Even little candy hearts are more profound than that!)
3. Fernando almost seizes the opportunity but decides that declaring his intentions ten minutes after Lety broke her engagement might be rushing things a tad. Aldo painfully ponders, “My love for you is immense, as big as the ocean.”
4. MamaJ asks Fern if an engaged man can have a another woman as a friend? That’s what Aldo said about the picture. Fern says it would normally indicate infidelity, but Aldo isn’t normal. It pains him to admit Lety loves Aldo, and they should help them reconcile. Mama is very moved by his sacrifice.
5. MamaJ and Fern find Aldo and Carmina embracing. Before they can say anything, Aldo says, “Nothing I say can convince you.” Carmina tries to explain, but Aldo tells her it’s pointless. Carmina says she told Aldo to explain PV to Lety, but he didn’t want to. Aldo tells MamaJ that if he had any doubts about his love for Lety, he’d scram. He’s ready to dedicate his whole life to making her happy.
6. Lola tells the cuartel Efren hasn’t made any court-ordered payments, and the court will take action.
7. Fern brings Lety the flowers someone sent. Lety runs to thank Aldo, but he says he didn’t send them. The card reads, “The love that distrusts is not love, and I need yours to continue living. –Aldo.” Aldo isn’t happy. But he says Fern did it so they’d be happy.
8. Jaimito says he doesn’t want to live with his birth father. He wants to stay with Saimon.
9. Fern tells Lety what Carmina said. He has resigned himself to his loss. He sent the flowers because all he wants is for Lety to be happy. And she loves Aldo, right?
10. Lety hears Aldo tell Girardo he can’t recover his restaurant. He doesn’t have the cash because they can’t complete the TV show. Lety says Fern convinced her that Aldo isn’t involved with Carmina. Aldo does not look happy at this turn of events.
Capitulo 292.
Read Alma’s original recap, then come back here to discuss it.
1. Rather than being happy that the love of his life has come back, Aldo scolds Lety for not believing him. He says his priority is her happiness. But he’s pensive when she hugs him.
2. Jax calls Fern to demand that Aurora return. Just then, Aurora calls him to say she’s ready to return. Fern wonders why, just as Aldo walks in and demands the remaining $1.5M of the debt. Fern puts it together. He says they can restart filming today.
3. Several days later, Saimon and Paula get married. Fern tells Omar he’s an idiot for moping about Caro, when she’s never mentioned another man. He needs to confront her rather than spend his life not knowing.
4. Lety tells Caro the TV show is finished, no one discovered Aurora, and she’ll never again appear (8 times).
5. Ali says loudly that their wedding wasn’t low class like this one. Paula screeches that it’s better to have a basic wedding than to be driven to bankruptcy by trying to show off (presumir). Efren and Jaz arrive, and Lola screeches at him for letting his children starve.
6. Fern hands Lety his jacket while he carries sodas. The smell reminds her of when she fell in love. His wallet falls out. She finds the Auroralety picture and knows that he knows. As she tells Tom, Fern walks in and asks what’s up. See the transcript. I LOVE this scene! What a man! He tells her that he protected her secret.
7. She’s almost crying, so he tries seven ways to Sunday to cheer her up. They laugh about Lety and Aurora signing the contract, and when they almost caught her when they lost the keys. She gets sad again because she was so mean to Omar, so Fern changes the subject again. He speculates what would happen if Omar knew Aurora was Lety, and he makes her laugh again. Aldo arrives and jealously drags her away.
8. Fern and Lety lock Caro and Omar in the room. Caro charges that he’s a mujeriego incapable of a serious relationship.
9. Tom gives the newlyweds a honeymoon in Acapulco. They drive away. The police arrive to arrest Efren.
Spanish Lesson. Lety Discovers What Fernando Discovered.
L: You’re right. It’s very strange that DonF hasn’t said anything. Why didn’t he tell everyone?
Tom: Well, you should ask him.
L: But how can I ask him? Am I going to say, “DonF, you need to explain to me..”
F: (Fernando walks in.) What? What do you want me to explain to you? (She hides the wallet behind her back.) What do you have in your hand? Why are you hiding it? What’s up? The right hand? (empty) The left hand? (empty) It’s magic!
Tom: C’mon, Lety. (Moves DonF in front of Lety) Show him. (Fern looks apprehensive. Lety holds up Fern’s wallet. Smiles nervously.)
L: There’s 500 pesos.
F: What? Do you need money? (Fern is broke but he opens his wallet to give her money.)
L: No, no, no. (In his wallet, Fern realizes the Aurora/Lety photo is missing. He panics. Lety holds out the picture. Fern snickers nervously.)
F: What’s so strange about drawing glasses on a photo?
L: Not to mention XG and braces. (Tom excuses himself.) Tell me the truth, DonF. Do you already know that.. the photo, with braces and glasses drawn in..
F: Oh! You think that I know that .. I don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t know.
L: Enough, DonF. Do you know or don’t you? You know, don’t you?
F: Yes,Aurora Doña Lety.
L: Don Fernando… I don’t know what to tell you. I don’t know how to apologize.
F: (in his compassionate voice) Look, Doña Lety. Forget about it. You have nothing to explain, because I understand very well why you did it.
L: You do??
F: Yes. It wasn’t long ago that I realized it, but I kept the secret so it wouldn’t provoke a serious problem with Domensolin (and Lety doesn’t flinch).
L: Ay, DonF. Muchas grácias. Grácias de verdad. (She hugs him. His face expresses not euphoria like times past, but responsible concern. He kisses her hair with intensity, then gently separates them.)
F: That’s not all. You’re my boss. I should protect you because that’s what you did when you were my assistant, right? Ya. Tranquila. (He knows she’s sad; he does everything he can think of to cheer her up, and panics when she almost starts crying. The Prime Directive kicks in.) Enough of that. Tell me something. How did you do it, the day of the contract signing with Jacques? You appeared as Aurora, then Lety, then Aurora. Think about that instead. How did you do it? (He’s laughing, try to get her to laugh).
L: I don’t want to remember. It was the worst day of my life.

Jax calls Fern to demand that Aurora return. Just then, Aurora calls him to say she’s ready to return. Fern wonders why, just as Aldo walks in and demands the remaining $1.5M of the debt. Fern puts it together. He says they can restart filming today.
3. Several days later, Saimon and Paula get married. Fern tells Omar he’s an idiot for moping about Caro, when she’s never mentioned another man. He needs to confront her rather than spend his life not knowing.
4. Lety tells Caro the TV show is finished, no one discovered Aurora, and she’ll never again appear (8 times).
5. Ali says loudly that their wedding wasn’t low class like this one. Paula screeches that it’s better to have a basic wedding than to be driven to bankruptcy by trying to show off (presumir). Efren and Jaz arrive, and Lola screeches at him for letting his children starve.
6. Fern hands Lety his jacket while he carries sodas. The smell reminds her of when she fell in love. His wallet falls out. She finds the Auroralety picture and knows that he knows. As she tells Tom, Fern walks in and asks what’s up. See the transcript. I LOVE this scene! What a man! He tells her that he protected her secret. 
7. She’s almost crying, so he tries seven ways to Sunday to cheer her up. They laugh about Lety and Aurora signing the contract, and when they almost caught her when they lost the keys. She gets sad again because she was so mean to Omar, so Fern changes the subject again. He speculates what would happen if Omar knew Aurora was Lety, and he makes her laugh again. Aldo arrives and jealously drags her away.8. Fern and Lety lock Caro and Omar in the room. Caro charges that he’s a mujeriego incapable of a serious relationship.
9. Tom gives the newlyweds a honeymoon in Acapulco. They drive away. The police arrive to arrest Efren.
Spanish Lesson. Lety Discovers What Fernando Discovered.
L: You’re right. It’s very strange that DonF hasn’t said anything. Why didn’t he tell everyone?
Tom: Well, you should ask him.
L: But how can I ask him? Am I going to say, “DonF, you need to explain to me..”
F: (Fernando walks in.) What? What do you want me to explain to you? (She hides the wallet behind her back.) What do you have in your hand? Why are you hiding it? What’s up? The right hand? (empty) The left hand? (empty) It’s magic!
Tom: C’mon, Lety. (Moves DonF in front of Lety) Show him. (Fern looks apprehensive. Lety holds up Fern’s wallet. Smiles nervously.)
L: There’s 500 pesos.
F: What? Do you need money? (Fern is broke but he opens his wallet to give her money.)
L: No, no, no. (In his wallet, Fern realizes the Aurora/Lety photo is missing. He panics. Lety holds out the picture. Fern snickers nervously.)
F: What’s so strange about drawing glasses on a photo?
L: Not to mention XG and braces. (Tom excuses himself.) Tell me the truth, DonF. Do you already know that.. the photo, with braces and glasses drawn in..
F: Oh! You think that I know that .. I don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t know.
L: Enough, DonF. Do you know or don’t you? You know, don’t you?
F: Yes,
L: Don Fernando… I don’t know what to tell you. I don’t know how to apologize.
F: (in his compassionate voice) Look, Doña Lety. Forget about it. You have nothing to explain, because I understand very well why you did it.
L: You do??
F: Yes. It wasn’t long ago that I realized it, but I kept the secret so it wouldn’t provoke a serious problem with Domensolin (and Lety doesn’t flinch).
L: Ay, DonF. Muchas grácias. Grácias de verdad. (She hugs him. His face expresses not euphoria like times past, but responsible concern. He kisses her hair with intensity, then gently separates them.)
F: That’s not all. You’re my boss. I should protect you because that’s what you did when you were my assistant, right? Ya. Tranquila. (He knows she’s sad; he does everything he can think of to cheer her up, and panics when she almost starts crying. The Prime Directive kicks in.) Enough of that. Tell me something. How did you do it, the day of the contract signing with Jacques? You appeared as Aurora, then Lety, then Aurora. Think about that instead. How did you do it? (He’s laughing, try to get her to laugh).
L: I don’t want to remember. It was the worst day of my life.

Eva Luna #109 Fri 4/8/11
Eva and Leo join Justa and Julio at the hospital. Julio tells them that Victoria is in a coma. She was running from the police and lost control of the vehicle. He then tells Leo that Justa is Victoria’s real mother. What asks Leo? Julio tells him that Renata didn’t tell anyone this secret for years. But he’ll explain more about it later. Eva confesses to Leo that Renata told her everything, but felt that it was best that he heard it from Julio instead. Leo says he can’t believe that Victoria’s not his sister. Julio says he finds that comment odd. Victoria told him and Justa that Leo is the one that told her she was adopted.
Renata admits to Tia that she stole Victoria from her sister and gave her to Marcella.
Leo admits that he told her, but thought that Marcella only told him that when Victoria was going crazy. I completely forgot about it. Well Victoria didn’t says Julio. She went to visit Marcella in jail to find out. And Marcella confirmed it. But there’s another thing. Your mother did not adopt Victoria, she and Renata stole her. They did it because Victoria is my daughter and Justa’s.
Tony is waiting for a delivery.
Jackie tells herself not to believe in Francisco. She remembers his kiss and then his apology for kissing her.
Francisco tells Laurita that he told Jackie how much he loves her and needs her, but she didn’t believe him. Laurita says she’s just scared. Of what asks Francisco? Laurita says Jackie told her once that he made her believe that he cared for her then went back to Marisol. You’re an idiot. Francisco says he was confused but knows he’s sure that he wants to be with Jackie. Laurita tells him he has to prove to her that he really loves her. How he asks. I don’t know replies Laurita.
Tony’s delivery guy finally arrives. They give each other the stink eye. Tony wants to know what took so long for him to get out. The bad guy just asks if he’s Tony. Yes replies Tony. The bad guy says I’m not here to do a delivery. Then what are you here for asks Tony. The bad guy pulls out a gun.
Leo and Eva can’t believe what Renata has done. Julio tells Eva he realizes everything that Victoria has done to her. He is not excusing her behavior but he and Justa want to ask her a favor. If the good lord sees fit to save Victoria would she consider dropping all charges against her? Please? I will make sure that my daughter seeks the help that she needs. Of course replies Eva. I can’t deny you anything. You have always been good to me. The doctor arrives to tell them that they moved Victoria to a private room. Justa asks if Victoria is out of the coma. Has she woken up?
Tony says if you are going to kill me then tell me who paid you. Of course I’m going to tell you. Its part of my job replies the bad guy. It was El Gallo right asks Tony. The bad guy laughs and says El Gallo has nothing to do with this. Then who asks Tony.
The doctor informs Justa that her daughter is still in a coma. Justa gets upset. Leo pretends to care. Julio wants to see her.
Tony asks if it was Leo. Of course it was says Tony. The bad guy says he has a message from Leo. That nobody makes a fool of him and lives to tell says the bad guy. Tony grabs the gun and they struggle.
Alicia has a bad dream and wakes up yelling Tony’s name. She feels bad for being ugly with him.
Eva asks if Victoria will recuperate soon. The doctor doesn’t know. Julio begs him to do whatever. Justa cries at her bedside.
Alicia holds the bear that Tony gave her and recalls the time Tony gave it to her. She remembers him telling her that he loves her and her child. And that he wants to marry her. Alicia acknowledges that Tony has been good to her but perhaps it’s too late.
Tony and the bad guy are still struggling for the gun. Tony kicks him and grabs him by the throat. They keep struggling and Tony kicks him again. More struggling and the gun goes off. The bad guy is hit.
Tia asks Renata that she and Justa are sisters. Yes replies Renata. And you still did what you did asks Tia. I know what I did was wrong replies Renata. And everything that Victoria has done is mostly my fault. I should never have denied her the right to grow up next to her real mother. Marcella used Victoria for her own purposes says Tia. Yes agrees Renata. And none of that would have happened had not allowed it. But I swear I have repented.
The bad guy gets shot in the stomach. Tony freaks out and looks like he wants to help him. The bad guy reaches for the gun and as Tony runs off shoots at him.
Tia tells Renata she is no one to judge her. For years she was the one who caused her nieces not to know their mother. I know what it is to repent and ask for forgiveness. I appreciate your words replies Renata, but at least you know that Eva and Alicia are happy. But I think my repentance arrived too late. Don’t say that says Tia. My sister is suffering in the hospital while her daughter lies in a coma. Tia suggests that they pray together for Victoria to be saved.
Tony is still running with the bad guy chasing him and firing his gun.
Leo is still playing the good guy card and telling Julio that even though he and Victoria are not blood related he will always love her like a sister. Julio tells him how happy that makes him and that love should never change. Julio tells Leo that he always made sure that he loved them both the same so that they would be raised like real siblings. Leo assures Julio that while growing up he always felt that Julio loved him like he was his real son. Just like Victoria. Eva tells Julio that she’s taking Justa to get some fresh air. As they leave, Daniel and Liliana arrive.
Tony is running for his life and hides in some trees. The bad guy finds him though and points the gun to his head. Tony knows his numbers up but makes a run for it anyway. The bad guy hits him in the back of the head with the gun and tells him he’s now going to die.
Daniel and Liliana come to find out how Victoria is doing. Leo gets his angry face on and wants to find out what Daniel is doing there. Julio tells him to calm down. Daniel is still Victoria’s husband and he has the right to know what’s going on with her. Leo says he the reason that Victoria has lost her mind. Daniel says that’s not true. Leo gets in Daniel’s face and says she wouldn’t be in that bed if you hadn’t asked her for a divorce. And you also pressed charges against her. You don’t care what happens to her.
Deborah tells her assistant that she worries about her daughters. Eva is marrying a man she doesn’t love. Then Alicia is pregnant and is scared for anyone to know who the father of her baby is.
Liliana the fake tells Leo how awful she feels about what’s going on with Victoria. Leo the fake tells her to pray. I have been since I found out replies Liliana. Daniel asks Julio if he could speak with Victoria’s doctor. Of course replies Julio. That way I can explain to you what Justa is doing here. I figured she was here with Eva says Daniel. No, replies Julio. Justa is Victoria’s real mother. Daniel is muy impactado.
Liliana asks Leo if what his dad said was true. Yes says Leo. Victoria is really my father and Justa’s daughter. You won’t even imagine the rest of the story.
More struggling with the gun. Tony gets away again.
After Tia and Renata finish praying they are going to retire when Tia asks if Renata knows if Alicia’s awake. Renata says she was still asleep when she checked on her awhile back. Tia is worried that she hasn’t eaten especially in her delicate states. What do you mean asks Renata? Tia tells her that Alicia is pregnant. Renata promises to watch over her. Tia asks her if she knows who could be the father of Alicia’s baby. Renata says she doesn’t have a clue.
Liliana can’t believe the story that Leo just told her about Victoria’s being stolen from her real mother after birth. Leo also tells her that Eva agreed to marry him in a week. Liliana tells him that Daniel has extended his offer for her to live at his house. Now all that needs to happen is for Victoria to die so that Daniel becomes a widow, Eva stays married to you and Daniel proposes marriage to me. Leo is happy that she agreed to take this job. They give each other a celebratory kiss. Victoria wakes up and sees this. She is horrified just like we are.
Renata wonders who the father of Alicia baby is.
Liliana and Leo keep planning on how to keep Eva and Daniel apart. Unfortunately for them Victoria hears all this.
Tony appears at El Gallo’s office.
Julio tells Justa he just finished telling Daniel everything. He has also agreed to drop all charges. Justa thanks him. Daniel says if it wasn’t for Eva who knows what would have happened. Liliana tells Daniel that seeing Victoria has dropped her sugar levels. Would he accompany her to the cafeteria? Of course replies Daniel. Eva is jealous.
Renata recalls the scene she came across of Leo and Alicia making out. Renata says Leo is the father.
Tony tells El Gallo that Leo sent out a hit man to kill him.
Victoria realizes that both Leo and Liliana betrayed her. But when I get out, I will seek revenge against them both.
El Gallo asks Tony if he’s sure. Yes, especially now that I know Leo is the one that asked for this favor. El Gallo can’t believe it. And he’s really upset.
Daniel asks Liliana if she’s feeling better. Once I drink the juice I will says Liliana. But I have to tell you something. When you left the room with Julio, Leo told me that he and Eva are going to get married in a week. Don’t you see, Eva doesn’t love you.
Daniel tells Liliana that Eva can’t marry Leo. But she is says Liliana. Within a week she will be his wife. Well if she does it’s for pure commitment. She doesn’t love Leo replies Daniel. I hate to tell you this, but I think you are not facing reality replies Liliana. That marriage is wrong says Daniel. What’s wrong is thinking that Eva loves you replies Liliana. Renounce her love. Move on.
Alicia tells Tia that she had a dream that Tony was in danger and died. Tia asks again if Tony is the father of her baby. Alicia assures her he’s not.
Daniel tells Liliana that he will not renounce Eva. Once he proves to Eva that it was Leo and not him who killed her father she’ll cancel the wedding. And how are you going to prove it asks Liliana. I prefer to keep it quiet says Daniel. I understand replies Liliana. But once thing is obvious. Eva is not waiting for your proof. Whether you are innocent or not.
Tony tells El Gallo that he wants to find Leo and finish him himself. El Gallo says don’t you dare. Tony points out that when Leo finds out he’s still alive he’ll send someone else to do the job. That will not happen. I guarantee it replies El Gallo. Right now just stay hidden. Leo betrayed me and now it’s my turn to take the next step.

Alicia wants to know how Renata found out. Your aunt told me replies Renata. She asked me to help take care of you. Who would have thought Renata taking care of me replies Alicia.

And of the way I treated Eva when she worked here. And the way I treated you all when you came to live here. For all that I ask you to forgive me. Well I also behaved pretty badly says Alicia. So don’t worry. Anyway what did you want to talk to me about my pregnancy? Renata drops the bomb that she knows Leo is the father of her baby.
Alicia asks Renata where she got that. Renata says one day Tony came looking for her and when I came to tell you Leo was here. So? What’s wrong with that? We were talking says Alicia. You weren’t talking, you were making love says Renata. Finally Alicia says that Leo is the father of her baby. She begs Renata not to say anything. She is the only one that knows.
Jackie asks Laurita if she knew that Francisco was in that restaurant and was going to declare himself. No replies Laurita.
Renata tells Alicia that she should have told them the same day that the engagement was announced. I was going to do that says Alicia. So what happened asks Renata. Leo threatened to kill me replies Alicia. That can’t be says Renata. I will talk to him. He has to clarify this says Renata. Alicia begs her not to say anything.
