Teresa Thu 6/16/11 #80 Beans are spilled and bombs are dropped
Capitulo 80
Wow, no overlap from ayer. They are really moving this along.
So we join Tibroncita burying her face in Fernando’s manly chest. She is super bummed that Art slept with Paloma. She can’t go to her parents (the shame—que verguenza) and Aurora’s MIA, so Fernie was the only amigo she could think of to go to. Fernie tries to comfort her, but she is inconsolable. She only puts up a brave front for the outside.
Espe and Mari at the hospital. Espe starts right in with a great dicho: “Conmigo no te andes con rodeos” (‘don’t beat around the bush with me’; rodeos=evasions, so slightly more hidey than hemming and hawing it would seem). It’s in reference to his being bothered by Aurora’s relationship with Martin. He likes her, but he was too late, and now she’s got a great guy. So he will just go forth with is own dicho (tengo que portarme a la altura; I’ve got to take the high road/behave myself). He’s not sure if he could love Aeeeeeeeda (lovin this nickname, props to whomever started it), but he sure misses her. Espe encourages him to go for it.
Fernie gives Tiburoncita a peptalk, but she explains that she actually a delicate flower on the inside….right. She asks him not to tell Art or Luisa about her being there because she needs to collect herself a bit….right. As soon as he goes to get her some agua, the Tiburoncara comes out.
Art and Luisa talk about Ter’s p.o.ed-ness. He doesn’t like that she is bothered by his firing Mari; Luisa chastises Art for sleeping with PatPal. He pleads extenuating circumstances.
Maira tells Aeeeeeeeeeda that as much as she dislikes Mariano, she prefers him to Aeeeeeda’s depression. Aeeeeeeeeda admits that is bummed because she misses Mariano, he really grew on her. Or maybe just his abs. Maira thinks she should divert herself with some fun—like a family vacation, now that Rubes and Maira are all reconciled. Aeeeeeeda brings up that Espe is knocked up, but can’t bring herself to burst her mom’s bubble about how far along she is; i.e. who the babydaddy could be.
Luisa is busy chastising Art some more on Teresa behalf (a tiburoncita’s best asset is a gullible and indignant friend!) when the shark herself calls to set up an alibi. She advises Luisa that she won’t be home, and she doesn’t want to talk to Art. She is going to go to Aurora’s, and would Luisa please make sure that Art doesn’t drink tonight (awww, how thoughtful). Ter also verifies that Luisa is leaving Fernie unprotected esta noche. Score.
Art can’t believe that Paloma spilled the beans. Luisa thinks that Art should just tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth to Ter, even though it won’t be easy for her to forgive him. Luisa drops a foreshadowing bomb “do you think that I could forgive Fernando if he were unfaithful?”
Back at Fern’s, Ter douses herself with her glass of water, and apparently her sharkskin isn’t as waterproof as you would think (“me empape!” I soaked myself). Fernie grabs a napkin and starts drying her, boob-first. Seriously. The dude takes the napkin straight to the boob. T and F have some serious close face action. We need a commercial to cool off here.
Ter excuses herself and says she should change clothes. I am not sure what Fer says here, but I am sure that he gets himself another good eyeful of Ter’s chest.
Martin and Mariano have a meeting of caballeros. Mari appreciates Marti taking his side re: foundation and firing thereof.
Hector tells Aurora about Juana finding out about her mom. He is bummed. Aurora tells him ‘chin up, you can clear it all up’.
Juana is crying to Refusio, who tells her about Cutie breaking it off with Gris. Juana perks up. Refu advises a heart to heart w/Cutie.
Cutie laments his situation to Johnny—his Juanita is going to marry. Johnny demonstrates his superior intelligence by using Mariano’s interruption of Teresa’s wedding as an example of how there is always hope. Oy, was he dropped on his head a lot as a kid?
Ter has changed into one of Fern’s shirts so he can dry her clothes. She lets him know that she called Luisa, but didn’t say that she was there, she wouldn’t want there to be any misunderstandings, what with her half nakedness and all (apparently, Fern doesn’t have any spare pants). Fern agrees that is the wise course, and Tiburoncita leans in and says it will just be their little secret. Dun dunnnnn!
Aur and Mari discuss their dolor. She is just worried about her pop, but Mari is for realsies sad, because he is realizing that, by continuing to pursue Teresa, he has lost an awful lot (hint, hint, Aurora). Aur says maybe this is the kick in the pants he needs to get over her. Wistful looks all around as he leaves. Aurora then calls Aeeeeeeeeda to advise her that Mari is superbummed and maybe she could do something about it.
Ter calls Aurora and is happy to get voicemail so she can further set up her alibi by leaving a fake sad message. She then gets all sexy fake asleep on the couch for Fernie to ogle, which he does.
Cutie and Juana—will they finally have their heart to heart? No, Hector interrupts. Cutie hedges a bit about being there to see Espe before he leaves. Hector explains about his wife situation—Vanessa abandoned him and Aurora ages ago and they’ve never seen her again, so it’s easier and less sad to pretend he was a widow.
Fern puts a blankie on sleeping Ter. What’s that phrase? ‘Let sleeping sharks lie’….
Luisa advises Art to give Ter some space and time, when Fern calls to let him know that she’s over there. He tells Art not to come over because she is too mad to talk. Both Art and Luisa are total suckers and think it is awesome possum that she is ‘safely’ with Art’s best friend. Luisa confesses that Ter asked her to watch over Art’s tonight—proof that she still loves him.
Juana and Hector. She agrees he has a sad sad story, but doesn’t forgive his dishonesty. She even starts with her “si me toques…”, but doesn’t have the heart to even finish the threat. She sends him on his way, but he manages to declare his intentions to marry her, and tries to sell himself as a great catch before he goes. He starts off pretty weak, but seems to have a strong finish. Juana still gives him the no me toques, though. After all, he is still a married man, and she is a respectable widow.
Art struts into Mariano’s office and says they need to talk.
Ter wakes up, and I swear her shirt is falling off. She tells Fernie that she needs to think about her future in case, ya know, things don’t work out with ol’ Artie. He’s happy to be there for her, and I think he doesn’t just mean to listen ;-). But she has the strategerie to act like she thinks it’s inappropriate for her to spend the night, so she is gonna go to Aurora’s. Not before she gets in another snuggle with her superbueno amigo, though. Shark theme all around.
Art asks Mari back in to the kiddie foundation fold as pissily as possible. Art promises not mix his personal and business feelings (mezclar lo personal con el trabajo), but warns Mari to keep his hot paws off his mujer.
Fern alone in his apartment flashes back to Ter’s sexy sleep action on the couch, looks at a photo of him and Luisa for strength, but decides to take the blanket Ter used and clutch to his bosom. Seriously? Clutching the blanket to his bosom? What kind of mujeriego is he? He is sooooooooo lost.
Art calls Fernie and gets the 411 that Ter went to Aurora’s, who happens to walk right in front of Arturo mid-call.
Espe talks to Mari about how she misses Hernan (he’s been gone for, what, half a day?). But the lady doth protest that she doesn’t like like him, she just likes him.
Aurora tells Art that Ter is super upset about their fight and stayed at her house. Point of fact here—she refers to Tiburoncita as ‘la pobre’ (the poor thing). That just cracks me up. Anyway, Art tells Aurora that he re-hired Mari and apologizes for being lame earlier. She approves. Mutual admiration all around. They finish with a little Ter chat; Aurora’s never seen her so bad off; Art loves her and will go see her chez Aurora to make up.
Aurora goes to talk to Mari re: foundation re-hiring. Mari thanks Aur for her and Marti’s help, and Aur spills that Ter intervened for him.
Next AM Aurora and Ter chat over breakfast. Ter has refused to see Art. Ter spills to Aurora the real reason they fought: Art slept with Paloma!
Fito’s place—Johnny calls, but he is not answering bcz of fear of the police. Johnny sits in cab frustrated by his phone failure.
Tiburoncita plays the aggrieved victim to Aurora, who laps it up. Aurora brings up what happened between Juana and Hector, and in the process spills the beans about her mom. Ter seems genuinely concerned about her friend here, but viewerville is forced to assume that said concern is surely false.
Fern shows up chez Barrera. Luisa’s got the girls out today; she must know she has competition. They talk about Ter and Art, their usual main topic of conversation. Luisa actually thanks Fern for all his help in this situation. Sucka! Fern hugs Luisa and seems desperate to convince himself that he still loves her and that he won’t stray. Good luck with that, sharkbait boy.
Ter tells Aurora she wishes she had known about the mom situation so that she could have helped her more. She is going to help bring Juana back to Hector’s side.
And as soon as we come back from commercials, Ter is putting her promise into action. Ish. She speaks well of the good doctor and disses Cutberto, but supports her madrina’s decision not to involve herself with a married man, even if he is the father of her best friend.
Cutie and Johnny yap on the street, when Gris sees them and puts 2 and 2 together. She later confronts Pati with the 4; i.e. she was being used as part of the Pati escape plan. Pati tries to calm her with exaggerated tales of Cutie’s love, but Gris doesn’t buy it and vows to watch her extra to prevent escape. Oh, apparently the big cumpleanos is manana. Good, we need to have something new going on with these folks if they are going to keep them around.
Refu comes by Juana’s to nag Ter for not coming by her own place, and also to tell her to keep her distance from Mari. Especially now that he has broken up with Aeeeeeeeda. A wee tiburonsonrisa at that news.
Ter assures Refu that she wants nothing to do with Mari. Anyways, she wants to celebrate the debtfree-edness of the Chavez household. Of course, instead of being happy like she was with Armando about this, Refu goes all sourpuss on Teresa, and says that really, it’s all thanks to Arturo. Ter thinks she should get some credit, since she ordered the raise. Refu refuses to believe that Armando deserves the money or the society in which he now finds himself. Ter thinks otherwise. Refu ends it by saying they will never understand each other (entendernos), but thanks just the same. As usual, Ter is left feeling crappy after a chat with her mom. Luckily Juana is there to cheer her up and tell her that she done right by her dad. Ter asks to stay at Juana’s because she and Art are fighting again.
Rubes corners Espe at the hospital to give her (what I think is) a health insurance policy to cover medical costs for her and the baby. Genoveva, of course, is crouching around a corner listening.
Ter finally comes home and Art starts to defend himself about firing Mari. She doesn’t even want to hear it and drops the bomb- ‘te acosaste con paloma’ (you slept with Paloma).
Pati is packing her getaway bag, then she and grumps have a bit of a heart to heart. Turns out that they were close when she was young. Cue sappy music. He still claims to be acting in her best interests, but she will never forgive him. NUNCA.
Geno and Rubes discuss his hijo to be—claro he can’t be raised in a vecindad. Rubes is considering moving Espe somewhere better when Geno proposes that she raise the child. QUE? Even Rubes is shocked.
Art begs Ter’s forgiveness, and explains his extenuating circumstances; mad, crazy, drunk, etc. Ter gives him no slack, and says she has nothing but ruined dreams. Art thinks they have time to start over, but Ter asks for a divorce. Oh snap; another bomb! Surely, even the Tiburoncita must be pleasantly surprised at how quickly her plan is coming along. Watch out DF, there’s gonna be a shark loose in the city soon!

Cuando Me Enamoro #41 Thursday 6/16/11 The Ice Man Cometh and the Ice Man Stayeth
Last night: We, and Jero, left Renata on the steps of the funeral home. Poor Renata doesn’t understand, what could be more important than going with her to Aggie’s memorial service? This is NOT a good start to this marriage.
Another troubled marriage: Coni mopes and then calls Chema. She asks him to join her for a coffee and he hops to.
Renata joins the family and hugs her BFF Adriana. At least everyone there is glad to see her.
Matilde’s godmother Manuela meets Carlos and mistakes him for el patron, it’s very cute. He’s gracious and welcomes her. Carlos mentions that the real el patron will arrive with his wife Renata which causes Matilde to go into a snit. Manuela sets her straight and Mati gripes there is no guy in the whole town for her. Open your eyes Missy!!
House call for Roberta: The doc says they must monitor her continually as it appears she has pre-eclampsia and it’s more dangerous for Roberta than for the baby. Something about it usually showing up after about the fifth month of pregnancy I think. Roberta pouts about having to stay in bed but the doc says don’t worry, he’ll examine her next week and they will also find out the sex of the baby. Rob set her big old chops in a nasty scowl.
Regina cries over her recently received photo of Reginita, poor thing.
Gonzo tells Nata he is not happy to hear that Jero left for the hacienda when this is supposed to be their honeymoon. Matias overhears and clenches his manly jaw.
Constanza tells Chema she should have stayed with Honorio but she just couldn’t. I couldn’t understand what Chema said because the waterfall behind him was too loud, but Cons calls him a good boy and he reacts. “I’m not a boy, I’m a man.” He holds her hand and comforts her, telling her she can count on him...always.
Regina sees Aggie’s death notice in the paper and she says poor Adri must be devastated.
Our Dr. Carlos was right: Jero arrives at La Bonita and announces he’s alone because Nata’s BFF’s mom just died. Mati pipes up sarcastically “She abandoned you so quickly?” (Hooray Mati for stating the obvious!!) Carlos and Lazaro give her the stink eye and Jero escapes to his room. Lazaro gets on her case but Mati thinks that Jero should have stayed by her side. At least that’s what she was taught.
Jero sees the monogrammed sheets (gift from Kari), rips them off the bed, folds them carefully so the monograms show, and then throws them in the trash. What a Jerko!
Aggie goes into the earth and everyone cries. Regina stands in the background. Gonzo sees her and asks why isn’t she up front with everyone else? Regina didn’t want to cause trouble with Fina. She tells him she is there for Adriana, not for him. He suggests life is throwing them together.
Renata comforts a crying Honorio and tells him she knows Aggie must have been important to him too. She asks about Constanza but he says she couldn’t come after what he told her.
Matias escorts Adri to the car. Daniel is pouting in the background even though he’s there with someone else. Regina comforts her as they pass by. Regina also tells Renata it was good of her to interrupt her honeymoon to be here for her friend. She’s shocked to hear Jero went to the hacienda, it’s most important that he and Renata be together. Nata attempts to excuse his wretched behavior by saying she’ll go to the hacienda tomorrow. Regina shakes her head.
Nata and Matias bring Adri home. Nata tells her to stay with Matias while she makes something to eat. Adri’s not hungry but Nata says no excuses, she WILL eat. I wish she could take that kind of control with Jerko instead of letting him jerk her around.
Carlos and Jero patrol the vineyard. Carlos tells el Jerko that there was no need to return to La Bonita so quickly, his place is by his wife’s side. He really gets on his case until Jerko tells him to cool it, this is between him and his pareja.
Spare Girl (did Carlos call her Arely?) rides up to congratulate the newlywed. She’s dying to meet his wife. Jero is noncommittal and Arely rides off. Both Carlos and Jero get the QTH looks on their faces.
Nata gets a text from Augie and she loudly texts him back. “How Did You Know I Was Get Ting Married? I Just Got Married Yesterday. Hopefully Someday We Will Run Into Each Other.”
Adri sadly tells Matias she knew mom’s death was coming but she wasn’t prepared to accept it. “Give it time” he tells her, then gives her a rock ‘n roll riff kiss. (Great background music on that one.) Renata catches them as she brings in Adri’s tray. Matias beats a hasty retreat (chicken!!) and Nata asks Adri, “I thought you were just friends but it’s more than that, right?”
Alfonsina reluctantly reports to Augi that Jero returned alone. It was weird but that’s the way it happened. Augi tells her to keep him informed. He thought bubbles “What could have happened?”
Over the full meal including steak that Nata just whipped up, Nata tells Adri she’s happy to hear that Adri and Matias have a relationship. Adri says it’s not really a relationship, they just had a kiss but man oh man she loves him and hopes it progresses. Adri says everything has changed so quickly, what’s she going to do about her house, her papa. Whoa, says Nata, Adri knows who her papa is?
The Man Team of Gonzo and Matias arrive home together. Matias reports he thinks Nata will join Jero tomorrow. Dad still doesn’t like that Jero didn’t stay to pay his respects. Some guy interrupts them with a pack of meds. Fina slithers in and says they are not for her but for Roberta who is pregnant. Caras impactadas de Man Team.
Nata is blown away as Adri explains that the guy who is Nata’s uncle and her boss turned out to be her father. Adri tells her she doesn’t think Constanza is taking the news well. Nata says give it time, as for her she’s happy with the news, she’s glad that Adri will have her father’s protection and she’s sure Matias will give her all the love she needs. Adri looks doubtful. If they only knew the nefarious plots that are brewing right under cute little noses.
Gonzo asks is Fina sure that Rob is pregnant? Meanwhile Matias is sweating bullets and he even asks if Rob is pregnant by him. Fina snips well duh, Rob doesn’t have a boyfriend and the only guy she’s been intimate with is him AS THEY ALL WITNESSED. Matias says that doesn’t mean he’s the father and Fina glares at him, “Are you sure???” and stares him down. Yikes, nightmares tonight for all of us.
Fina tells them the doc says Rob has to be very careful or she might lose the baby and/or her life. More nasty comments about the youth of today not being responsible for their actions. Matias goes to Roberta while gullible Gonzo tells Fina they’ll deal with this together. This gives Fina the opportunity to rub it in that the baby will be Gonzo’s grandkid and thus carries the Monterrubio blood.
When he asks how she is, Rob tells Matias she’s not sure how to deal with this disconcerting news. Matias mans up and tells her that Fina indicated the baby is his. Is it true, is she sure the baby is his? She has a confession, will he promise not to tell anyone? The father of her baby is Jeronimo Linares. They met at the party, he told her he loved her, she fell for him, he invited her to his apartment, got her drunk and took advantage of her. He asks how could this betrayal have happened? She weeps that she just wanted someone to be in love with her just like Renata. Anyway the same thing happened with Matias, didn’t it? He wonders why didn’t she tell anyone? She says she told Renata but she didn’t believe her. She told Jero but he blew her off. She tried to stop the wedding but now she doesn’t know what to do, pregnant by the husband of her sister and all. She’s carrying an angel of a baby inside of her and she’s frightened of the thought of being a single mother and raising her little angel without a father. Matias comforts her a la Gonzo and she smirks a la Fina. Well daisynjay, I think this answers your question about who sticks her ever-growing nose into Matias and Adri’s relationship.
Ah, we’re back in the wine country. Carlos tells Jero that Matilde’s acting a little crabby because she’s in love with Jero. Jero laughs that they don’t even know each other but Carlos reminds him that he better than anyone knows all about love at first sight. Jero has his favorite airport flashback but shakes it off. Carlos says Mati’s been nuts for him ever since Rafa showed her Jero’s picture. Hope dies hard and Mati’s hope has turned to frustration. Jero says he knows how she feels. No you don’t you dumba**. Mati is open and upfront about her feelings. You are a lying wanker. Not to mention you are in a bright white suit roaming around the deep red earth. City boy, bah!
Matias goes to his room, curses Jero, calls himself an imbecile and destroys his room. Gonzo finds him and demands what’s up? What did Roberta say? Is Matias the father? Matias says Rob told him nothing. Gonzo goes, well, gonzo and yells if she said nothing that means the baby is his and Matias had better take responsibility so his own child doesn’t end up uncared-for in everybody’s mouth, i.e. everybody will say Matias won’t take of his own kid.
Jero fondles some baby vines and Carlos tells him he can’t believe his own eyes, Jero is taking care of his brother Rafa’s vines. Jero instructs Carlos to never mention Rafa’s name at the hacienda and tell everyone else to do the same. He doesn’t want Renata to know that Rafa was his brother and he doesn’t want to discuss his decisions with Carlos. What a guy.
Jero changes the subject. He wants to meander through Dr. Nesme’s property and he wants Carlos to teach him everything. It’s his intention to carry on Rafa’s dream to make the vineyards some of the most well-known in the world and to make Mexican wine some of the most highly regarded...thanks to Rafael. Carlos is happy, this is the Jero he knows and loves and agreed to work for.
Fina and Roberta snicker and bond over their successful perfidies. Rob gripes about staying in bed but Fina tells her not to take any risks. Knock on the door, it’s Gonzo, and Fina instructs Rob to start crying. Gonzo enters and Rob weeps she’s sorry, she failed them both, she doesn’t know what she’s going to do. He hugs her and says she and the baby have his full support, by the way, who’s the daddy? Fina snarls isn’t it clear that it’s Matias? Nope, says dad, that’s why he has to ask Roberta. She starts fake-crying to please leave her alone, boo hoo sideways-glance hoo.
Meanwhile over at the vineyards Alfonsina is complaining to the workers that the irrigation is all wrong and they need to fix it. The grapes are very delicate. Doctor Ick shows up foaming at the mouth in lust for her but Alfonsina’s not looking too happy to see him. He pants that she’s driving him crazy and he must make love to her. I practically snorted my dry rose through my nose with that one. She tells him no way, it’s over. He keeps trying to grab her as she moves away and then shhhh! Here come Ezekial! Doc pretends that he’s there giving Alf some vineyard advice, acts completely guilty, then quickly skedaddles. Ezekial asks since when is the doctor an irrigation expert? Yep, he’s suspicious.
Carlos and Jero are surveying Doc Nesme’s land from their awesome porch when Renata calls. She gives him the 411 on Adri and says she can’t wait to see him tomorrow. He rebuffs her, she doesn’t need to come so soon, she’s self-sufficient. She coos that she can’t wait to make love with him and his perfunctory response is “have a good trip, I’ll see you.” Jero tells Carlos to find the doc and tell him to name his price. Get a wife, buy some land, it’s all in a day’s work.
Oblivious Renata continues dreaming about Jero the Zero when Consti joins her at the cafe. Nata tells her that she’s leaving tomorrow, Coni is like her mom and she doesn’t want that to ever change. Nata also wants to talk about the Adri situation, it must be very difficult for Coni to find out Honorio has a daughter. Coni clarifies that Adri is not a daughter to her, she’s a stranger. Nata thinks it will just take time for Coni to come around. Coni hopes she doesn’t sound like a monster but no, she doesn’t think she will.
Over at the stables Honorio has just finished his stress-reducing ride. Gonzo joins him and Honorio still can’t believe he’s got 23 yr old daughter and that she is Adriana. Gonzo says life is full of surprises. Dude you have no idea. Honorio asks what’s up with Gonzo, he seems worried. Gonzo reveals that Rob is preggers.
Regina, Cata and Antonio gossip about Jero not being with Renata at the funeral. Renata doesn’t think it’s right. Cata says Jero’s not Regina’s kid so she should lay off. Tony agrees, he’s not her son or SON-IN-LAW (ahem!!) so she should butt out, let the newlyweds handle it and don’t call Jero.
Auggie reads his text from Renata confirming her marriage. Spare Girl bounces up, kisses him and suggests they do something that afternoon. He snarls “I don’t want to do anything!” and stalks away. She grabs his phone to take a peek and suddenly he snatches it away and glares at her. “Sheesh, I just wanted to make a call,” she says. Why oh why is she still there?
Matias tells his horse about Jero being the father of Rob’s baby.
Adri cries and texts Matias how grateful she is that he’s in her life. He reads it and sighs at the hopelessness of it all.
Lazaro drives Renata to the hacienda and she asks why didn’t Jero come to pick her up? Poor Lazaro, that a hard one to answer. Manuel Carrasco’s sad song Que Nos Está Pasando (What’s Happening to Us?) is playing in the background. He calls her Senora Linares and tells her to come inside but she sits in the car, not recognizing her new name and numb to her surroundings.
Inside, Carlos is shocked that Jero didn’t go to the airport himself. Jero is saved from having to explain himself by Renata who jumps all over him, Hola mi amor!! Carlos welcomes her to La Bonita and she is delighted at the name. For whom was it named? Jero instructs Lazaro to take her suitcases to the guest room. Caras impactadas de Lazaro, Carlos y Renata. “Que? The guestroom?” asks Lazaro. “What? Aren’t we going to sleep together?” demands Renata. Another round of Caras Impactadas.
Avances: Jero silently promises Renata she’ll not be happy there or anywhere else. Renata demands to know what’s going on with him. She sees Augi and gives him a big hug. Uh oh, Jero sees them.
al menos es lo que a mi me enseñaron = at least that’s what I was taught (What Mati says)
autosuficiente = self-sufficient (what Jero says Renata is)
cuarto de invitados = guest room (where Renata is sleeping I guess)
desamaparado/a = uncared-for, helpless, underprivileged (What Rob’s kid might be)
lo abandonó tan rápido? = She abandoned you so quickly? (Matilde to Jeroo)
me traes loco = you’re driving me crazy (Doc Ick to Alfonsina)
pareja = partner, mate (how Jero referred to Renata)
recién casado = newlywed (Jero)
riego = irrigation
tiempo al tiempo = give it time, bit by bit (What Matias said to Adri)
Dicho of the day (For Jero)
No hay que buscarle mangas al chaleco = don’t look for trouble where there is none (lit. Don’t search the vest for sleeves)
Another troubled marriage: Coni mopes and then calls Chema. She asks him to join her for a coffee and he hops to.
Renata joins the family and hugs her BFF Adriana. At least everyone there is glad to see her.
Matilde’s godmother Manuela meets Carlos and mistakes him for el patron, it’s very cute. He’s gracious and welcomes her. Carlos mentions that the real el patron will arrive with his wife Renata which causes Matilde to go into a snit. Manuela sets her straight and Mati gripes there is no guy in the whole town for her. Open your eyes Missy!!
House call for Roberta: The doc says they must monitor her continually as it appears she has pre-eclampsia and it’s more dangerous for Roberta than for the baby. Something about it usually showing up after about the fifth month of pregnancy I think. Roberta pouts about having to stay in bed but the doc says don’t worry, he’ll examine her next week and they will also find out the sex of the baby. Rob set her big old chops in a nasty scowl.
Regina cries over her recently received photo of Reginita, poor thing.
Gonzo tells Nata he is not happy to hear that Jero left for the hacienda when this is supposed to be their honeymoon. Matias overhears and clenches his manly jaw.
Constanza tells Chema she should have stayed with Honorio but she just couldn’t. I couldn’t understand what Chema said because the waterfall behind him was too loud, but Cons calls him a good boy and he reacts. “I’m not a boy, I’m a man.” He holds her hand and comforts her, telling her she can count on him...always.
Regina sees Aggie’s death notice in the paper and she says poor Adri must be devastated.
Our Dr. Carlos was right: Jero arrives at La Bonita and announces he’s alone because Nata’s BFF’s mom just died. Mati pipes up sarcastically “She abandoned you so quickly?” (Hooray Mati for stating the obvious!!) Carlos and Lazaro give her the stink eye and Jero escapes to his room. Lazaro gets on her case but Mati thinks that Jero should have stayed by her side. At least that’s what she was taught.
Jero sees the monogrammed sheets (gift from Kari), rips them off the bed, folds them carefully so the monograms show, and then throws them in the trash. What a Jerko!
Aggie goes into the earth and everyone cries. Regina stands in the background. Gonzo sees her and asks why isn’t she up front with everyone else? Regina didn’t want to cause trouble with Fina. She tells him she is there for Adriana, not for him. He suggests life is throwing them together.
Renata comforts a crying Honorio and tells him she knows Aggie must have been important to him too. She asks about Constanza but he says she couldn’t come after what he told her.
Matias escorts Adri to the car. Daniel is pouting in the background even though he’s there with someone else. Regina comforts her as they pass by. Regina also tells Renata it was good of her to interrupt her honeymoon to be here for her friend. She’s shocked to hear Jero went to the hacienda, it’s most important that he and Renata be together. Nata attempts to excuse his wretched behavior by saying she’ll go to the hacienda tomorrow. Regina shakes her head.
Nata and Matias bring Adri home. Nata tells her to stay with Matias while she makes something to eat. Adri’s not hungry but Nata says no excuses, she WILL eat. I wish she could take that kind of control with Jerko instead of letting him jerk her around.
Carlos and Jero patrol the vineyard. Carlos tells el Jerko that there was no need to return to La Bonita so quickly, his place is by his wife’s side. He really gets on his case until Jerko tells him to cool it, this is between him and his pareja.
Spare Girl (did Carlos call her Arely?) rides up to congratulate the newlywed. She’s dying to meet his wife. Jero is noncommittal and Arely rides off. Both Carlos and Jero get the QTH looks on their faces.
Nata gets a text from Augie and she loudly texts him back. “How Did You Know I Was Get Ting Married? I Just Got Married Yesterday. Hopefully Someday We Will Run Into Each Other.”
Adri sadly tells Matias she knew mom’s death was coming but she wasn’t prepared to accept it. “Give it time” he tells her, then gives her a rock ‘n roll riff kiss. (Great background music on that one.) Renata catches them as she brings in Adri’s tray. Matias beats a hasty retreat (chicken!!) and Nata asks Adri, “I thought you were just friends but it’s more than that, right?”
Alfonsina reluctantly reports to Augi that Jero returned alone. It was weird but that’s the way it happened. Augi tells her to keep him informed. He thought bubbles “What could have happened?”
Over the full meal including steak that Nata just whipped up, Nata tells Adri she’s happy to hear that Adri and Matias have a relationship. Adri says it’s not really a relationship, they just had a kiss but man oh man she loves him and hopes it progresses. Adri says everything has changed so quickly, what’s she going to do about her house, her papa. Whoa, says Nata, Adri knows who her papa is?
The Man Team of Gonzo and Matias arrive home together. Matias reports he thinks Nata will join Jero tomorrow. Dad still doesn’t like that Jero didn’t stay to pay his respects. Some guy interrupts them with a pack of meds. Fina slithers in and says they are not for her but for Roberta who is pregnant. Caras impactadas de Man Team.
Nata is blown away as Adri explains that the guy who is Nata’s uncle and her boss turned out to be her father. Adri tells her she doesn’t think Constanza is taking the news well. Nata says give it time, as for her she’s happy with the news, she’s glad that Adri will have her father’s protection and she’s sure Matias will give her all the love she needs. Adri looks doubtful. If they only knew the nefarious plots that are brewing right under cute little noses.
Gonzo asks is Fina sure that Rob is pregnant? Meanwhile Matias is sweating bullets and he even asks if Rob is pregnant by him. Fina snips well duh, Rob doesn’t have a boyfriend and the only guy she’s been intimate with is him AS THEY ALL WITNESSED. Matias says that doesn’t mean he’s the father and Fina glares at him, “Are you sure???” and stares him down. Yikes, nightmares tonight for all of us.
Fina tells them the doc says Rob has to be very careful or she might lose the baby and/or her life. More nasty comments about the youth of today not being responsible for their actions. Matias goes to Roberta while gullible Gonzo tells Fina they’ll deal with this together. This gives Fina the opportunity to rub it in that the baby will be Gonzo’s grandkid and thus carries the Monterrubio blood.
When he asks how she is, Rob tells Matias she’s not sure how to deal with this disconcerting news. Matias mans up and tells her that Fina indicated the baby is his. Is it true, is she sure the baby is his? She has a confession, will he promise not to tell anyone? The father of her baby is Jeronimo Linares. They met at the party, he told her he loved her, she fell for him, he invited her to his apartment, got her drunk and took advantage of her. He asks how could this betrayal have happened? She weeps that she just wanted someone to be in love with her just like Renata. Anyway the same thing happened with Matias, didn’t it? He wonders why didn’t she tell anyone? She says she told Renata but she didn’t believe her. She told Jero but he blew her off. She tried to stop the wedding but now she doesn’t know what to do, pregnant by the husband of her sister and all. She’s carrying an angel of a baby inside of her and she’s frightened of the thought of being a single mother and raising her little angel without a father. Matias comforts her a la Gonzo and she smirks a la Fina. Well daisynjay, I think this answers your question about who sticks her ever-growing nose into Matias and Adri’s relationship.
Ah, we’re back in the wine country. Carlos tells Jero that Matilde’s acting a little crabby because she’s in love with Jero. Jero laughs that they don’t even know each other but Carlos reminds him that he better than anyone knows all about love at first sight. Jero has his favorite airport flashback but shakes it off. Carlos says Mati’s been nuts for him ever since Rafa showed her Jero’s picture. Hope dies hard and Mati’s hope has turned to frustration. Jero says he knows how she feels. No you don’t you dumba**.

Teresa Wed 6/15/11 #79 Art Blows It and Knows It; Fernando Becomes Shark Bait
Cap #79
[Here are the bare-bones highlights from last night from me --and Blusamurai in blue. -ed.]
Arturo pulls Rank as new director of Paloma’s foundation and fires Mariano. They both know why and Mariano says so—purely personal reasons, namely jealousy. Art says send Aurora instead. Mariano makes it clear that even though he might give up his position as liason with the foundation, that doesn’t mean he’ll stop seeing Tere, and there’s a scuffle.
Ruben confronted Espe about having his baby. Espe was getting weak and starting to fall for Ruben's B.S. she got saved by a phone call from Geno wanting to tell him about finding out Fito she needed to see him in person. So Espe came to her senses and decided that Ruben would never make her his main priority and told him to shove off for good and leave her alone. Arturo threatens to kill Mariano if he comes near Teresa.
Aurora shows up and refuses out of loyalty to Mariano, and then quits herself afterwards. Martin sides with Mariano and Aurora, who tells Martin that she blames Teresa for all the new problems since she’s supposedly to be Art’s assistant at the foundation. She meets up with Tere to tell her what’s gone on and that she blames her for it all.
Juana overhears Hector talking to Art about getting his divorce papers final and saying he didn’t want her to find out. She breaks up with him for not being honest with her at the very start of their relationship.
Aurora shows up and refuses out of loyalty to Mariano, and then quits herself afterwards. Martin sides with Mariano and Aurora, who tells Martin that she blames Teresa for all the new problems since she’s supposedly to be Art’s assistant at the foundation. She meets up with Tere to tell her what’s gone on and that she blames her for it all.
Juana overhears Hector talking to Art about getting his divorce papers final and saying he didn’t want her to find out. She breaks up with him for not being honest with her at the very start of their relationship.
Mariano gives Fito's license plate number to Genoveva who gives it to Ruben. He gets the guy's full name and address.. Teresa finds out that Espe got Fito's plate number and calls Fito to warn him. He says he's dumping that phone and will call her back with a new number afterwards.
Aeeeeeeeeeeeeeda goes to Mariano and thanks him for turning the information over to Geno about Fito's license number on his motorcycle. Mariano tells her it's not him she should be thanking; someone else gave him the info. Aeeeeeeda is very happy and asks Mariano to tell her who it is. She wants to really thank that person personally for doing her that favor. Mariano asks Aeeeeeeeeda if she is sure she wants to do that. Absolutely says Aeeeeeeeeeda! I would like nothing more than to thank him or her! Who did this? Mariano then tells her it was Espe, leaving our shrewish harpy with a stunned disbelieving expression on her face.
Rufugio finds out that Cutberto really isn’t getting married after all and suggests he look for Juana and have a heart-to-heart with her. He comes to the manse, but Tere blows him off and says Juana’s out.
That night when Teresa gets back home, she lights into Art about humiliating her and making her look ridiculous because of his jealous fit in deciding to get rid of Mariano. She’s sick and tired of his continued jealous rages. Truth be told, she says, she should be the one who’s jealous and has plenty of reason to be. She, though, has supported him throughout in everything despite knowing that the day he left her at Cuernevaca he spent the night with his PatPal. He’s scared spitless to know that she knows and is waiting for the next shoe (D.I.V.O.R.C.E.?) to drop.
Fernando and Luisa both hear the commotion. Nando is angry that Art cheated on Tere. Luisa is angry to find out that what Paloma told Tere was actually the detestable truth. Art is reeling from mortification and his fear of what Teresa will do now.
Tere makes her move later that night and follows Nando to his apartment. He no sooner gets inside than there’s a knock at the door. It’s Teresa looking for Art’s BFF’s shoulder to cry on after the way Art cheated on her with Paloma of all people! He invites her in and willingly obliges.

Cuando Me Enamoro #40 Wednesday 6/15/11 OneWedding Night and One Funeral ... But One Couple Arises From the Storm
[posted for martai by jardinera654]
Gina tells AntiHero she is there just to support him. She says goodbye to Nata saying God bless you, you are very important for me, we haven't interacted much but there are things that dont have explanation... (hug)... she hugs AntiHero...
Ines and her family come to congratulate the newlyweds too..
Gonzo goes to Gina, tells her this is a very key day for him, it is an honor to have her there... She breaks the magic saying this is the last time we see each other, i can't be near you... (and leaves him there deflated).
Nata tells AntiHero that Adri and Matt convinced her to keep going with the wedding... tells him that Matt told her about his old relationship with Lorea and that he had never seen AntiHero so in love with anyone... Nata asks Matt and AntiHero to hug and leave the past differences behind. AntiHero appologizes to Matt for having fallen in love with the woman he chose and thanks him for his generosity in his relationship with Nata. (Hug... although Matt is not so convinced)
Rob gets home and tells Fina that Nata is married. Fina is smoking, if you had stopped it as I ordered you... Rob says I tried, thought Matt would help me to convince her but it was the opposite. Fina says if it wasnt for Gina Soberon, she would have stopped that wedding even if she had to pull Nata out of there by the hair.
Sele asks Chema what is his interest in Connie... Chema says just like a friend or someone you work with... he insists they leave.
The new executive Blanca is chatting with Honorio. Adri comes by to say goodbye, Matt will take her home. Adri and Matt leave, Blanca tells Honorio that if she did not know them she would say he and Adri are interacting like father and daughter. Honor stays there thinking.
Nata, AntiHero and Carlos... she wants to go say goodbye to mom and change. AntiHero says he will go to apt to get some things and change and go pick her up to go to the hotel... She giggles nervously and says he is making her nervous. Nata leaves,
Car: She is lovely... IT shows she loves you... What did you feel when you saw Lorea at the church?
AH: Panic! Panic at the thought of losing Nata.
Car: Know I was glad she showed up? Just to confirm that the love you feel for Nata is true and sincere.
AH smiles satisfied.
Connie and Gonzo say goodbye to Cata, Ines, Isidro, Regina and Antonio... They in exchange remind Gonzo and Connie about the gala coming up soon.
Connie: IT hurts you to see her with Antonio, right?
Gon: More than you can imagine, sis.
Rob and Fina are in Fina's bedroom. Nata comes in ... it gets very quiet and creepy instantly.
Nata: I came to say goodbye. I know you went to the church but since Gina was there you did not stay. (she is nervous and sad already)
Fina: (rudely) You promised me she would not be there. You never have given me my place in your life.
Rob: Neither me. I begged her not to marry and not to waste her life with the jerk of AH but she did not listen to me.
Nata: I truly am sorry that my decision to marry affects you both so much. And also that Gina was there. I was not expecting her, mother, I swear.
Rob: You could have kicked her out. You could have demanded of AH that if she was there you would not marry him!
Fina: You have become a marionette of Hero's and his friends.
Nata: I am not a marionette, mother. I am a woman in love and there are things out of my control! But I am here to ask you that despite everything else, I can get your blessing, mother. And I came to tell you both that I love you.
Fina: Please, Nata! Don't get in the role of victim! IF you loved us so much you would have listened to us! But what's done is done and we have no choice but to respect what you have decided. (she heads out)..
Nata: Mamita, are you going to give me your blessing??
Fina: (just stares at her and leaves..., leaving Nata there totally broken up)
At Adri's house, she thanks Matt for bringing her and everything... she can't believe he and AH reconciled and hugged and Matt forgave him.
Mat: I felt like it. But I doubt things will be as they were between us.
Adri: At least there won't be any more bad vibe between you. And I am glad for you and him and for Nata.
Matt: That made her happy.
Adri: Nata is so blessed/priviledged with you . I wish someone would love me as you love her.
Matt: You can be loved very easily, Adri. It is a blessing you have your mom who adores you. As I had mine. Nata on the other hand has never had her mother's love. That must hurt real bad for any human being. Don't you think? Not all of us are that lucky.
Adri: Know what, Matt? you are one of a kind (unico)! (she kisses him grabbing his face, he kisses her back... and they really get into it... boy that was unexpected!)
Matt: I will call you tomorrow... See you.
(he leaves, she stays there totally shocked at what just happened)
Nata is at the stables saying good bye to her mare... boy that relationship is strange... she promises she will never leave her alone... tells her about when her dad brought her home... with the mare she started to smile, to have happy moments... will miss her much... but its time she makes her own family, no?... will leave behind all her sadness and will be alright... Jero is a wonderful man but she will miss her ...
Gonzo comes by... Nata thanks Gonzo for everything he has given her, for making her happy, for everything he gave her, for her horse/mare... Gonzo tells her he loves her... she loves him back and blesses the moment her mom met him and married him. Thank you very much, papito! You are teh most wonderful man in the world...
Connie and Honorio join the tender moment at the stables... Connie and Honorio hug Nata too... they will always be by her side... she loves them all... group hug.
Gonzo makes it to the bedroom..
Fina: I know you dont love me anymore, I don't matter to you. But I expected another attitude from you, at least in gratefulness for all the years I gave you...
Gon: It was our daughter's wedding. I couldn't leave her alone, I had to support her.
Fina: You knew I did not feel good. The Dr had to come medicate me. the old meds dont do anything for me anymore, and you show up now.
Gon: I am sorry, Fina. I had to be with my daughter.
Fina: If that woman did not come to the wedding, none of this would have happened.
Gon: Fina, lets not talk about what happened anymore.
Fina: IT has been such a hard day for me. I always imagined that when one of my daughters married, it would be a happy day for me. But it was the other way around. I am so sad to see how things turned out.
Gon: Try to calm down. Don't get like that.
Fina: I hope everything was worth it . I hope Nata will be happy with that man, even if you dont believe me, I will miss her lots.
Gon: With time things will settle into place and you will be at peace.
Fina: You really believe that? that we will be at peace again?
Gon: Get some rest, Fina. Good night.
(he leaves, she clutches her teeth... STUPID!!)
Cata, Gina and Tony get home... Cata is tired, leaves or the night... But first Cata gives Gina an envelope that arrived and says 'Hi Mom!' outside. IT has the picture of 8/9 yr old Nata... she gets really upset and says it is her daughter!!! waterworks opens up!!
Nata and AntiHero arrive to hotel room... He is carrying her in his arms... she is so happy... Very lovely scene and the room has petals everywhere... love you... love you... Love you and I want tonight to be unforgettable... she laughs...
Cata is trying to calm Gina down... she is now in bed. Gina wants to see the picture, begs them to see the picture again... Tony asks her to calm down..
Gin: Do you think my daughter knows who I am? That she sent it to me?...
Tony: Don't know what to tell you. Could be her or the same person who sent the clothes.
Gin: But why doesn't she show up? Why are they doing it in such a cruel way?
Cata and Tony remind her that the investigator told them that the inheritance the girl is supposed to get at 25 yo could be the motive.
Gina would give her entire fortune and her life for learning where her daughter is. Tony promises he will give the picture to the invest. Gina asks why not today.. Tony says it is too late today. But will try.
The lovebirds in hotel room get going undressing and doing the deed...
Adri and Aggie are talking, Adri is very excited and happy to tell her what happened with Matt... Aggie is glad Adri is so happy but tries to bring her back to earth saying a kiss does not AUTOMATICALLY mean all that. Adri says she knows, but he is someone with whom she can try to have a chance for the future... Aggie say my times were different but I dreamed and you can have your own dreams... just find out exactly what Matt feels for you... Adri tells her what Matt did for Nata and her wedding... he is a complete gentleman.
Then Aggie gets really ill.. Adri panics and calls the nurse... The nurse tells her Aggie is dying... Adri calls Matt in panic, her mom is dying. Mat summons Honorio... Honorio asks Connie if she wants to come, she says no i will stay, you are the one that needs to be there.
The lovebirds talk in bed.. it was wonderful to make love with you... YOU are wonderful... Don't you feel like stopping time? or feel like time has stopped... want to smell you, breathe you... to be with you... can you imagine when we have a baby?... just one?... i was thinking about 20... what do you say?... I would love to have a girl who looks like you... I would love a boy who looks like me. (they laugh) your eyes, your nose..your mouth.. your lips... But boy... Jeronimito!! Nooo! .. or Gonzalo as my dad... or as your dad.. or as your brother.. what was your brother's name?.. (just as if someone had stabbed his brains, he turns the switch... ) lets rest, we have an early flight tomorrow... turns his back to her .. she is there frozen at his change in attitude...
Aggie is still alive, but is very anxiously waiting for Hono/Matt to get there... Hono comes in...
Aggie: Hono... I give you my biggest treasure... I give you... YOUR daughter.
Adri: Did you say YOUR daughter?
Aggie: Yes, dear. The man I loved all my life, the one who gave you life... is him!... Honorio is your dad. (long looks of Adri, Hon and Matt)
Nata is sleeping, AH is looking at her thinking... why did I let myself go? I am an idiot.. I am a slave when you kiss me, when you love me... and I can't... I cannot allow that.
Adri and Aggie are saying goodbye...
Aggie: I want to tell you you are the result of the great love that I had for your dad. And now that the end is coming, I will leave in peace knowing that he will be with you...
Adri turns the waterworks harder... Don't want you to go...
Aggie: We have to accept it... Hono, take care of her. Love her lots. She is an angel. I love her dear.. (to Hon) I love you... with all my heart. (she dies)
Adri: NOOOO!!! MOMMY!!!!! Mom, don't gooooo!!
Gina is finally asleep... Cata tells Tony she put some tranquilizer drops in her tea... saw her so upset that I knew she had to sleep.
Tony asks Cata to let him stay the night with her... she is reluctant... dont worry, just want to hug her and be here for her when she wakes up tomorrow.
Tony: I dont know what I have to do, but I will move earth and sea until you have your daughter with you... I swear.
Matt is hugging Adri... Hono is on phone dealing with the funeral arrangements.
Adri: Why do good people have to die?
Matt: Death comes to the good and bad folks. Your mom was suffering quite a bit, it was not life what she was living.
Adri: And what will I do without her? My mom was everything for me, everything!!
Matt: I understand you more than you think. My mom died over a year ago and I felt something inside me died with her, it was like someone cut off my roots.
Adri: I feel very alone.
Matt: IT doesn't matter how old you are when your mom leaves... you feel like an orphan.
Adri: I will never be able to fill the emptiness she left in my heart, ever.
Matt: Its not about whether someone fills back the emptiness ... it will always be there but it won't hurt so bad with time. Believe me that with all this pain and sadness, with time you will smile again. Live takes away from you, but also gives you... Now you have a new family ... with us.
Hono comes by and tells her everything is set with the funeral home. He asks Adri if she wants to talk. She says not now. and goes to her mom's side.
Matt: take it easy, uncle. It has been many emotions. SHe has to digest that her mom died... and then she will accept you are her dad.
Nata wakes up... SHe is alone in bed... She calls for him, he comes out of bathroom... HE is fully dressed, rushes her to get dressed. She wants them to delay the flight, he won't please her... they have to go to the hacienda, they are all waiting for them... Nata asks if he is serious. AntiHero checks his phone, there is a message from Matt... AntiHero gives the phone to Nata before reading the msg... Matt tells in msg about Aggie's death... 'I did not want to tell Nata directly because I knew it would affect her very much'... Nata breaks down crying...
AH: (very dryly) what do you want to do? (Nata looks at him in shock not believing he can act so dryly on her at this moment)
At Gina's its morning, at breakfast. Gina thanks Tony for his support yesterday. He slept very well with Gina in his arms... INvestigator is on his way to see them. Gina is certain the girl in the picture is her daughter. At least today she knows her daughter lived as a normal kid, at least until she was 8 or 10 yo. She recognizes she is afraid they are trying to make her crazy, but she has to admit she feels thankful to God for the hope.
The invest gets there...
At funeral, Connie arrives, someone is hugging Adri... Connie tells Hono she won't stay long, came to show face. Hono begs her to stay, she is part of his life... Connie says yeah but not part of This part of your life... Hono tells Connie that Aggie told Adri before dying.
Con says now that Adri knows, things will change... Hono says I suppose so. Hono goes to hug Adri and Connie quietly leaves.
Daniel and Matt comment on Adri and Hono getting along so well. Matt says they will get along even better from now on. They also comment on Nata not coming. Matt says left her a message... Daniel says it seems she won't come.
At MiseryManor, Rob and Fina are also having breakfast... Rob tells Fina that Matt did not come to sleep home last night, and that it seems Adri and Matt are getting closer together. Fina says you can't let that insignificant girl get your man... Rob say she is no competition for me. Fina say there is no small enemy.
Gonzo comes down... Fina immediately tells him she is concerned Matt did not come to sleep... Gonzo tells her what happened to Aggie, Matt is there and he is heading there...
Fina tells Rob it is time to uncover your pregnancy... Rob is reluctant, gets ansi... stands up and immediately faints... Fina calls for help.
aT HACIENDA, Mati has decorated everything... Carlos congratulates Mati on the decorating... Lazaro asks mati to please not call the patron hermoso just for respect to the new patrona. mati says maybe not in front of her, but he will always be the hermoso to me.
investigator tells gina and tony that there is a 90% chance that the girl in the picture and her daughter are one and the same... gina says that is good news, right? invest says he does not want to give them false hopes, his job is to be honest. this could be happening to make her crazy... the note on the envelope leads him to think so. there are many possibilities, the sender could be her daughter herself. daughter might know gina is her mom but dont know her intentions. who knows what she thinks, whether her mind could be brainwashed against gina. we dont know the intentions of the sender, haven't asked for money in exchange for information... just want to prepare you because all this search and discovery about your child might not have a happy ending...
Antihero drops Nata at funeral home, as they walk to the door he tells her he is going on to hacienda, will arrange the moving of the date of her flight at the airport ... nata is in disbelief that he wont stay with her.
AH: Could we do things as I say? ... you stay with adri, take the time you need and when you are ready to go to the hacienda you let me know. I will wait for you there. Goodbye (touch kiss).
Nata stays there in disbelief. he drives away. she does not understand.
N: what could be more important than staying with me?
previews:: rob tells them Hero is the dad . Matt is making a mess of room cursing AH
sorry have an urgent thing to do with daughter... |

Triunfo del Amor #148 6/15/11 A Triumph of heavy-handed morality
Last night's refrito
- PJP cries
- Maria can't believe Mee-maw is a murderer
- Burnie stomps out the opposition to become the queen of cell block 666.
Tonight's morsel
Jailhouse Rock
Day-um...Burnie is craaaa-zeeee. (Romo is playing this to the hilt.) Burnie is getting solitary for the little jig she did on her cell-mate's throat. Jail guards and prisoners alike are intimidated. Burnie tells them they are all sinners. They are all going to burn in the flames of hell. She is escorted to her cell. Wow, well-filmed shot. Dark and creepy. I think Burnie is scarier in prison gray. Before entering her cell she proclaims that they can't treat her this way because...wait for it...she's the mother of a priest (which in her demented mind is the "get out of hell free" card in the Monopoly game which is life.) She deserves respect, by God. Jail guard reminds her that she's a murderer and if she doesn't get her little keester in the cell, things will be worse. Burnie enters. Cue Gregorian chant. Burnie prays and flashes back to the fire and her conversation with Eva at the ambulance. Burnie decides she needs to find out who Eva really is.
Meanwhile Eva curses Burnie for surviving, but swears that next time she won't escape!
96 Tears
Heri is convinced that sooner or later, Vic's daughter will forgive her. Vic is not so sure. Heri says Vic is a strong and brave woman. Victoria wants to know what that's gotten her (Viewerville thinks that perhaps if she has received a smaller dose of soberbia....) Yada yada about all the tests in life and Vic being able to rise above it all. Vic says but know she doesn't know how. A lot of missed dialogue. I believe platitudes about pain and growth. Despite losing her daughter she built a fashion empire...which Vic reminds him "de nada me ha servido" (Lit: it has served me nothing; Loosely: it was for naught.) Anyway, he continues to enumerate all the stuff Vic has endured and overcome: cancer, her daughter's accident. You're the foundation of your family, your marriage. Vic falls all over herself to clarify: I'm divorced. Heri is impactado (Guess he'll have to make a choice--Go with Leonela!) Vic fills him in on the little business with Os and Linda. Heri can't believe a person could to that to a woman like Vic. And she (surprisingly) admits to maybe, just a little, not much really being partly to blame.
Xi and Gui talk murder (but they don't say who...I guess Maria), play with a knife and get turned on. Sick.
Xi and Gui talk murder (but they don't say who...I guess Maria), play with a knife and get turned on. Sick.
I guess I'll cry myself to sleep
Vic returns home and tells Os about her visit with Dr. Voice. She was just talking about the surgery. She tells Os what a swell guy Heri is and how lucky a woman would be to have him.
We interrupt this scene to show you crazy Xi still playing with a knife and then leaving Gui's house. After she leaves Gui calls Nicolás and tells him "Tomorrow is the big day" (It doesn't sound like anything good.)
Back to Vic and Os.Vic excuses herself to go to bed. Os tries to stop her. Vic tells him that her children are all that matters; that he had accused her of ignoring the family for the sake of work. She's not going to make the same mistake twice. Os wants to know where he fits in. Is her part of the family. Vic tells him no. For him to be part of her family again would take a miracle. She leaves Os at the bottom of the stairs. Perhaps he's thinking: "She's as cold as ice; Willing to sacrifice our love.
Cryyyying over you!!!
PJP thinks it was Fausto that turned in Mamacita Dearest. Maria hates to see daddy so upset. PJP is worried about his mothers salvation. Granny has to pay according to the laws of man. But PJP isn't just hurting over mom's soul. He's worried about Maria's too. María says Vic has done her too much harm. PJP is like Hello??? Have you met my mother?
More platitudes.

More platitudes.
He's in the Jailhouse Now
Eva is visiting her nephew in prison. They are having an ethical (or is it moral) debate. Burnie is in jail thanks to Fausto's testimony. She prefers her own brand of justice. Fausto insists jail is what the lady needs. I admit to missing the details, but they are both at odds. Eva wants revenge, Fausto is worried about her immortal soul. Let the authorities take care of it. Save your soul, Eva. Burnie needs to face man's justice. Eva really hates Burnie with a passion. She should have killed her with her own hands. Fausto aches for his Aunt. Her hatred is going to be her undoing (seriously guessing the dialog...the hazards of watching online.) Fausto is really beginning to sound like a Mini-PJP. Let Burnie be punished by the law. He says Eva should live in peace, be calm. NO! Eva says. She is charge of making sure that Burnie pay for what she did to her sister "ojo por ojo y diente por diente" (eye for an eye. lit: eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth... and I wish she had flossed.) Dear Urban Anthropologist, I do hope we can get some psychological insights from you about the victim becoming just like the perpetrator. Eva leaves in a snit. Cue angelic choir as Fausto prays for help.
Burnie is still in her cell. She gets a visit from her guard. Burnie's got visitors. The guard doesn't want problems with the authorities. No one knows about this cell and no one is going to find out, got it? Got it? Burnie humbly nods and slowly walks out. I don't believe this "she's been cowed" scenario AT ALL. The Devil is just biding her time, I bet. (Please note: Burnie is still perfectly coiffured.)
I heard the news today, Oh boy!
Fer has made chilaquiles with love for Cruz. A rose sits in a vase on the table. While they dine a news flash in on TV. Doña Bernarda Iturbide has been accused of killing her domestic employee: Tomasa Hernandez. Millie, Chente and Napo (El Pollón) are also watching. Chente has a sad, says the opligitory "¿por qué?" and "Dios mío" and leaves. Napo comments how sad it is that PJP has a murderin' mamacita.
Hail to the Chief
Xi and Eva have come to visit Burnie in the hoosegow (from the Spanish "juzgado"- judged/a panel of judges.) Burnie has some instructions for her trusted employees. They will need to take care of things while she's in the clink. Eva says she will gladly take charge of things. Burnie coldly informs her that Xi will be "la jefa" (boss.) Burnie dismisses Eva who is confused, dazed. Her usual aplomb is kaput and after a few "what the hell"? shakes of her head she leaves. I suggest you rewind and watch this scene slowly because at the same time Xi is gloating and it is difficult to catch the two reactions at the same time. So Xi immediately starts the brown-nosing: "you can't imagine how happy you've made me with this vote of confidence." Burnie looks at her with the face of "know mierda when I smell it" and I laugh. Burnie reminds Xi that Maria is the star model at Casa Victoria and that they have to win the bienal. If Xi doesn't put forth the best effort, she's not going to be the topb!tch dog anymore (or something like that.) Xi says they will win. Burnie and the whole world are gonna see who Ximena de Alba is.
Tell Him
Maria tells Alosno she is very confused about the engagement what with what's going on in PJP's world. A little mumbling and María tells Alonso he's got to take care of himself. Bebé feliz, mamá feliz blather. More "you should rest blather." Some mention is made of the quick wedding (they were both talking "a la vez") Alonso promises to rest. The new theme song fires up (not Abrázame that was used during María's pregnancy.) He's really happy about what's happened between he and María. He's going to do something lovey for thenext 5 or so episodes rest of his life. I think he says something about not being able to wait for that kiss that she will give him confirming her love. There is someone knock knock knocking on Heaven's María's door. It's PJP!
María excuses herself. PJP wants to talk to Alonso alone.
Get off your high horse, woman
Burnie needs to get out of this place ASAP, but while she's there Xi needs to keep Eva in check. Lately the woman has had an air of superiority and has forgotten she's just there to serve Burnie. Xi understands; she'll put her in her place. For good measure, Burnie reminds Xi that her worst enemy, Maria Desamparada, will be on the catwalk during the bienal.
At the vecindad, Maria praises Millie's new tele. They chit chat about recent events concerning Burnie. María can't understand who someone who claims to be so religious is capable of killing someone (really, María? Do you know nothing of human history?) and Maria says she's going to accompany PJP to the reclusorio (prison) to visit Granny. She asks Millie to watch bebé feliz ('cause that worked out so well last time.) Millie is shocked "You're really going to leave him with me?" She swears to watch him. She'll carry him around on her back like she did with JuanJo if need be. Before María can leave, Millie asks if she's thought any more about the troubles with her mother. María says no. Millie reminds her that moms need all our love and gratitude. They gave us the most valuable thing ever: Life. Cue the creepy xylophone music and more smarmy platitudes that have nothing to do with the plot. We've got weeks to go before María forgives Vic, so you can save your breath, Millie.
You ain't woman enough to take my man
Fer is talking to Vic on the phone. They are discussing the Tomasa Hernandez murder. There's a mini-(very mini) flashback. Vic plans to come get Fer for terapia. Fer hangs up and Cruz arrives. The Jarochas and other vecindad folks show up to gossip about Burnie. Fer reminds them that she is PJP's mom...so knock off the chismes.
Speaking of PJP, he's asking Alonso if he really love Maria. Alonso says he's crazy in love and will be 'til the day he dies (I don't know, maybe they'll give him 9 episodes...like a cat has nine lives!)
While Fer continues to remind the denziens of the vecindad that they need to keep quiet around Maria, Diana the lady record producer arrives amid cat-calls and whistles. And get this...the hussy greets Cruz with a kiss. (Oh no she di'int!) Supposedly she and Cruz have some important meeting. Cruz introduces Fer and Diana the Brazen Hussy (DtBH) tells Fer she has such a handsome and talented husband. Cruz explains that he can't make the meeting but Fer says it's ok. His missing one day of her therapy won't hurt anyone. He leaves and the Jarochas plant the seeds of doubt. Fer says she trusts Cruz. They tell her not to trust DtBH.
Alone Again (Naturally)
PJP has turned his little meeting with Alonso into a (literal) come to Jesus meeting. Alonso wants to know what all the gloom and doom is for. Things are sooo awesome. He's not going to end up alone and scared like the good Padre seems to think. He's got the love of his (very short) life. PJP says ok, but remember God is always nearby. Alonso tells him Max is the one who needs God. Max is the one who lost María. (Is it just me or was there a little nyah nyah! in that statement?)
Oye la confesión...de mi secreto...
Fausto receives Max in the visitors area. He just wants Max to know that Ximena de Alba killed Linda.
Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting (with cruel words and recriminations)
Chente confronts PJP. You knew what was going on. You knew I was looking for her and you said nothing. PJP insists he couldn't say anything. Of course not, says Chente. You had to protect your mother. María explains that PJP was bound by the seal of the confessional. Chente hopes God doesn't forgive PJP and walks off. Vic takes his place in line. She told him Burnie had done something horrible and he did nothing. With Maria standing right there Vic goes into full-on B!tch-toria mode until Maria says "enough!" B!tchtoria tells her not to dare defend Burnie. Their estrangement is all her fault. Maria says no...that Vic and her pride are to blame for that. Vic hopes Burnie rots. PJP asks how Vic can ask Maria to forgive if she won't even forgive. Maria says she won't forgive Vic. Fer wheels up and begs Maria to forgive Vic. Maria says she can't Vic says she won't beg. She will have to be content that Maria and Fer love each other. Maria says her sister is innocent of any wrong-doing.
Meanwhile, the police are CSI-ing the fireplace at the Iturbide abode.
Hit the Road, Jack. And dontcha come back no more.
PJP visits mama in jail. He tries to explain that he didn't turn her it; it was Fausto. But mama will have none of it. She says PJP will shed tears of blood for putting her through this. Her soul is saved. She was only following God's orders. She tells him to leave and never come back. She renounces him (Te reniego), which honestly sounds less goofy in Spanish...much more dramatic. And really that would have been a great ending, but the lily gets guilded rather uselessly with....
Stand by Your Dead Man Walking
PJP is talking to Maria and questioning Operation Alonso. Things could go sour real fast. Maria says she will marry Alonso and make him happy in his final days.
Cue the Vic of the Past montage.

Fer is talking to Vic on the phone. They are discussing the Tomasa Hernandez murder. There's a mini-(very mini) flashback. Vic plans to come get Fer for terapia. Fer hangs up and Cruz arrives. The Jarochas and other vecindad folks show up to gossip about Burnie. Fer reminds them that she is PJP's mom...so knock off the chismes.
Speaking of PJP, he's asking Alonso if he really love Maria. Alonso says he's crazy in love and will be 'til the day he dies (I don't know, maybe they'll give him 9 episodes...like a cat has nine lives!)
While Fer continues to remind the denziens of the vecindad that they need to keep quiet around Maria, Diana the lady record producer arrives amid cat-calls and whistles. And get this...the hussy greets Cruz with a kiss. (Oh no she di'int!) Supposedly she and Cruz have some important meeting. Cruz introduces Fer and Diana the Brazen Hussy (DtBH) tells Fer she has such a handsome and talented husband. Cruz explains that he can't make the meeting but Fer says it's ok. His missing one day of her therapy won't hurt anyone. He leaves and the Jarochas plant the seeds of doubt. Fer says she trusts Cruz. They tell her not to trust DtBH.
Alone Again (Naturally)
PJP has turned his little meeting with Alonso into a (literal) come to Jesus meeting. Alonso wants to know what all the gloom and doom is for. Things are sooo awesome. He's not going to end up alone and scared like the good Padre seems to think. He's got the love of his (very short) life. PJP says ok, but remember God is always nearby. Alonso tells him Max is the one who needs God. Max is the one who lost María. (Is it just me or was there a little nyah nyah! in that statement?)
Oye la confesión...de mi secreto...
Fausto receives Max in the visitors area. He just wants Max to know that Ximena de Alba killed Linda.
Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting (with cruel words and recriminations)
Chente confronts PJP. You knew what was going on. You knew I was looking for her and you said nothing. PJP insists he couldn't say anything. Of course not, says Chente. You had to protect your mother. María explains that PJP was bound by the seal of the confessional. Chente hopes God doesn't forgive PJP and walks off. Vic takes his place in line. She told him Burnie had done something horrible and he did nothing. With Maria standing right there Vic goes into full-on B!tch-toria mode until Maria says "enough!" B!tchtoria tells her not to dare defend Burnie. Their estrangement is all her fault. Maria says no...that Vic and her pride are to blame for that. Vic hopes Burnie rots. PJP asks how Vic can ask Maria to forgive if she won't even forgive. Maria says she won't forgive Vic. Fer wheels up and begs Maria to forgive Vic. Maria says she can't Vic says she won't beg. She will have to be content that Maria and Fer love each other. Maria says her sister is innocent of any wrong-doing.
Meanwhile, the police are CSI-ing the fireplace at the Iturbide abode.
Hit the Road, Jack. And dontcha come back no more.
PJP visits mama in jail. He tries to explain that he didn't turn her it; it was Fausto. But mama will have none of it. She says PJP will shed tears of blood for putting her through this. Her soul is saved. She was only following God's orders. She tells him to leave and never come back. She renounces him (Te reniego), which honestly sounds less goofy in Spanish...much more dramatic. And really that would have been a great ending, but the lily gets guilded rather uselessly with....
Stand by Your Dead Man Walking
PJP is talking to Maria and questioning Operation Alonso. Things could go sour real fast. Maria says she will marry Alonso and make him happy in his final days.
Cue the Vic of the Past montage.
