Amores Verdaderos #83 Fri 3/8/13 The Solis Punching Bag makes it through another day as a free man thanks to his mommy, A child you love can't keep a secret, but at least Bea and Guillo are safe.
Refritis:
Leo mangling Bea with knife on her neck… lights go out. Leo goes out to check and when he opens door he is facing Dances’ gun… However, Leo manages to trip Dances to floor… Leo runs to Bea and uses her as shield.
Both Dances and Frankie point to him but just freeze there.
Paula is at hospital seeing Anibal, she manages to tell Anibal he has a 3rd daughter but tries several times to tell him her name, but he has another heart attack and Big Angel shoves her out with threats she will be responsible for Anyballs’ death.
Lo Nuevo:
Leo threats Bea will pay if they approach him. Meanwhile he insults Dances calling him a “sopilote”(bum/nobody) who will never have his woman. Dances barks back ‘when did she become your property?!’
Frankie tries to negotiate with Leo, saying if Bea does not want to be with Leo he can’t force her. Being married to her does not give him right to take her against her will. He kidnapped her. Somehow Frankie is getting closer to Leo as he tells Leo about Bea and Guillo being his family. When Leo stands up repeating the name ‘Guillo’ (surely he has a soft spot in that disturbed heart for his son), Frankie manages to grab the knife and punch Leo into the floor and then Dances starts using Leo as a punching bag with gun in hand. Dances asks Leo now where is your ‘courage’? Frankie has Bea in his arms. Frankie and Bea leave, while Dances tells an unconscious Leo(Dances is pushing his foot on Leo’s head pinching him on floor) to start praying, because maybe he won’t come alive from ‘this one’ (then scans around with his eyes… hmmm, maybe he intends on fulfilling the prediction personally).
Back at hospital, Vicky arrives, but does not recognize Paula as the piano teacher since Paula has scrubs complete with her face mask. Angel feels bad for having lied to Vicky about feeling ill, prays God for forgiveness because she did not prevent the confrontation with Senora Paula. Vicky feels awful since she could have avoided the confrontation with Adriana, then left for just a couple minutes and see what happened (the 2nd heart attack).
Doctor comes by tells her Anyballs is not conscious, Vicky wants to see him for a minute anyways so the Doc gives in. Doc and Vicky leave.
A nurse comes by and recognizes Angel as the model on the tv commercial and asks for an autograph. He responds ‘that is not me, I am Ms Vicky B’s bodyguard, THAT is me! (with a bit of pride in his tone in the end, how easily he forgot he was just apologizing to God for being a bad boy). Poor nurse, she was left alone siging and enchanted with just seeing him walk away.
Back at B/Arriaga apartment, Lili is worried about what Bea is going through. Cris tells her ‘mirror yourself in that so you will choose wisely a good man for a husband for yourself’. They discuss Frankie as being a good possibility. Lili’s hopes get deflated when Cris tells her she confirmed with Bea that Frankie is married. Lilli is not hungry. It was a strange day. Many things happened, wants to know how Adri is doing after she found the stones in her daughter’s grave. Cris gets miffed at Lilli worrying about Adriana. She lies saying she is worried that Angel has not reported in all day. Lilli tells her when they were at cemetery she felt like hugging Cris. Cris gets her spirits up and they embrace in a nice loving hug.
At hospital chapel, Adri is praying to the virgin that no one knows her sorrows like her. But only ANyballs can answer her questions. Please don’t take him away yet. Will not be able to forgive him, ever.
At Anyballs bed, Vicky is crying, tells him he is a very strong man, fight for your life. We all need you. Know lately we have had differences, but my love for you is intact. ‘I know you will talk to Adriana and will clear her doubts. What happened with Lucia, where she is…’ you can’t go leaving my sister sunk in the anguished darkness.
Back at B house, Niki is handling the stress in her favorite way, with a multi-level tray of cakes and cookies with chocolate syrup. In comes Roy with wine and freezes at the sight of her swallowing cake pieces whole… she comes up with the excuse of her stress. Grandpa dying, family breaking down… Roy mentions family might fight for the Anyballs inheritance. Niki does not appreciate the comment, in her own special vocabulary… ‘zero que ver con tu comentario, neta!...’ he is sure Anyballs put her as his universal heir(even adding his own vocabulary referring to Niki as Anyballs’ ‘consen’ (consentida))… Niki gets even more irritated. ‘que onda con tu planeta? Se salio de orbita o que?’ She says its real bad taste to talk money when someone is so gravely ill. She does not care about the money, only that ‘mi tatito’ stays alive. Roy pushes on, saying he would love for Anyballs to be there at their wedding… Niki pulls away and he stops pushing buttons. But immediately is miffed at her for constantly rejecting him. She apologizes (FOR WHAT???!!), feeling ill, he gets a bit slurpy kissing her face. I understand. I have loved you all my life. You are no. 1 in my rank list, flaquita. (OH PLEEEEZZ!!! Someone hand me over a puke bag please!!)
Frankie and Bea on street by Leo’s mom’s place, saying Dances and Leo are taking too long. They are worried of The grannie not turning over Guillo if Leo takes too long. Suddenly, Leo’s car comes with Leo driving and Dances in back seat. Frankie gets Leo out and drags him around some more. Dances warns Leo ‘you know what you need to do, you better do what I told you, or you won’t have time to talk about it.’ Inside, Guillo is asking Grannie when will dad come for him. Loud door knocks, and Grannie hides Guillo and looks worried hesitating to open the door.
Back at B/A apartment, Cris and Lilli still worried. Paula arrives. Needed to talk to someone. Cris asks if she heard about what happened to Bea. Pau asks where was she. When Cris tells her Leo had kidnapped her, Paula goes beserk. Grabs Lilli and yells that Leo is very violent, will kill her!!. Cris tells her that Dances got a call and he and Frankie went to get her. And if Angel knew about it he would have gone along, but he is too busy, been MIA all day, maybe he has been doing the powwow with his boss lady. Paula tells Cris he is at the clinic. Cris gets alarmed, Paula clarifies ANyballs had a heart attack. Paula cries saying everytime something is going on with my kids, I am with Anyballs!!. She confirms to Cris and Lilli that Bea and Frankie are her children. Cris and Lilli’s jaws are all over the carpet, they are in shock.
Back to Guillo’s Grannies… Bea comes in asking for Guillo. GUillo comes out of hiding and hugs her. Then he notices her bumps and bruises all over her face and gets sad. Leo, Frankie and Dances are also standing around. Bea asks him if he noticed who else came to see him. Frankie hugs Guillo very lovingly. Guillo tells him he has news, his parents got back together. Frankie gets sad and tells him that his dad (Leo) has something to tell him.
Dances, who is standing behind Leo, pokes him with the gun and reminds him on what they agreed. Then steps away. Leo greets Guillo his usual way (Cachorro), then tells him he and Bea were talking and realized they can’t be together. Guillo is sad. He insists he loves them both. Leo hugs him, Guillo is still denying it as true. Then begins to cry as Leo explains it is normal to get sad when parents split. You are brave, you just have to work with it. There will be changes but it will be like when we went to watch your (futbol) games together. IT will be same, but after the game you will go home with Mom. Bea comes over and tries to console a devastated Guillo. Slowly you will get used to it, and all you need to remember that for your dad and me you will always be the center of our lives. Bea asks Guillo to kiss dad goodbye. Guillo hugs Leo as if he did not want to let go. Leo reminds him to think he is the son of Leo Solis. Frankie gets Guillo back off Leo, then tells him that Dances will take him to the car while Frankie and Mommy talk to dad. (Dances takes him away).
F: Now we will talk!
L: I did my part already.
F: Yeah, you returned Guillo to Bea. But what about all the years of abuse!, of violence you gave her! The hours of anguish she lived not knowing about her son?? And the time you had her kidnapped??!!
L: Look, lil’l BIL!!! I am fed up with you!
F: And to wrap it up…
L: What are you going to do now?
F: Call the police to accuse you for what you did to Bea, because kidnapping implicates jailtime!! (Grannie screaches in horror)
At hospital, Vicky tells Adriana that Anyballs will be alright. Doc says he will have meds for the rest of his life, he needs to stop smoking and do exercise, and most importantly, we have to avoid him any traumas/strong emotions.
Adri asks when Anyballs will be released. Doc says don’t know. He is still in ICU but recommend you all go get some rest. (Doc leaves)
Adri cannot be convinced in ‘waiting’. ‘I have waited 18 years, hasn’t that been enough? … it is easy for you to talk, because you have your daughter at your side.’ Vicky says she understands her anguish and also wants to know what happened to Lucia but don’t want my dad to die. I am sure you don’t either. Please, wait a bit longer. (Adri is not convinced and shoves Vicky’s hand away) alright, will wait, but let it be known I am doing it for you, not for him. (leaves)
Vicky asks Angel if it is so wrong/evil to ask Adri to wait. Angel says what is right and what is wrong/evil? You are fighting for the life of your dad. Ms Adriana is fighting to find her daughter. Both of you are right. But what is right and what is wrong/evil?
Back to Leo’s house, Grannie pieads to Frankie for Leo. ‘your son commited a crime and has to pay!’.. Grannie goes to Bea to try her luck with her.
L: IF what you want is to see me on my knees begging you, it won’t happen!
(to Bea) see what you caused?
B: No, you are wrong, Leo!! All I want is for you to forget about having me, please!! And to be a good dad for Guillo! That’s all I want!
(Frankie has to push Leo off Bea again)
L: Your brother and your ‘friend with rights/privileges’ really collected on me nicely! First they push me to return my son! And now you all want to lock me up in jail(al bote). (Frankie has heard enough)
F: You have been following Bea. You threatened her and ended up kidnapping her!! But it is over!
Grannie found her voice: My son is very impulsive (atrabancado), but he has done it all for love!!
F: Please, you asked for it on your own!
Frankie has the phone in his hand and begins to dial the police. Leo pushes his mother off from between them. Leo goes for the phone and he and Frankie begin to wrestle. Grannie grabs a huge vase(nice attention to detail on props staff, the flowers in it are plastic, dollar store flowers, and cheap vinyl curtains with flowers on them) and smashes it on Frankie’s head and back, leaving him unconscious and yells at Leo to run away(he kisses her forehead and runs out), while Bea tends to Frankie, yelling at Grannie ‘what did you do?? What did you do, Senora??! Grannie replies ‘he is my son!!’. Frankie is unconscious. (what?? No blood with that huge heavy vase?? Heads bleed from someone just blowing on them!!’)
At apartment, Paula has finished telling Cris and Lilli the story. Cris tells her you are a neverending surprise bag. But why do you always lie? Lilli asks why not tell them about Bea and Frankie being her children? … Paula says she was trying to protect Anyballs. Frankie is very impulsive and proud. He would never have forgiven him that she was lover of Anyballs, the owner of the house he works at. And he is still ignoring it. Can’t even imagine what will happen when he finds out. Door knocks. Guillo comes in, along with Dances. They ask him for Frankie. Guillo says Frankie stayed behind to talk to my dad. My parents will divorce. Then he talks to Paula as his ‘abue’ and goes to hug her. Dances notices Guillo calling Paula ‘Abue’, Lilli tells him she is Bea and Frankie’s mom.
Lilli takes Guillo away to show him some flowers (Gertrudis).
Paula asks Dances about Bea and Frankie. Dances says they must be at police station.
Meanwhile, Adriana is ringing bell at Paula’s place. Of course she is at Cristina’s. Adriana remembers Paula yelling at her at hospital ‘go ahead, spill your hatred!! But then don’t come looking for me to ask what happened with your daughter!!’
Back at Leo’s… Bea tending to Frankie with ice on a towel. Grannie is apologizing, she could not allow them to lock up her son in jail. He is all I have. ‘Betty, you know how much he loves you’.
B: Aida(Grannie’s name), Leo is ill. What he feels for me is not love. He had no right to take Guillo away from me and to retain me on threats and cruelty.
Grannie: Forgive him! You are a mother like me. IF my son goes to jail, what will I live for? … Frankie, we have been family.
F: Dona Aida, I can’t risk Leo harming my sister again.
G: But after all that has happened today, you think he will dare do anything again? Please have compassion! Please!!...
Bea tells a disbelieving Frankie that she won’t accuse Leo. Leo can be whatever… but she does not want to cause Guillo an even stronger pain when he finds out his dad is in jail.
Back at B house, Niki and Vicky talk about Anyballs health, don’t want him to die. He is strong. He will get better soon. Vicki changes the subject to Niki. A few days ago Roy did not exist, and now he ‘lives’ here. Niki says since they were kids Roy ‘lived’ in the house. They would take him along on trips. Vicki admits Roy is son of her best friend. Nice but a bit unstable. A bit superficial (on right track, you are way short there). And I don’t think he is the ideal man for you. I am even surprised about your relationship, you are even talking wedding. Niki says don’t hallucinate. He loves me and I do too. Let’s see what happens. Vicky says ok. Niki says everything is ok. She is happy Roy returned. Vicky asks what is Roy’s rank.. friend? Boyfriend? Or formal boyfriend (Fiancee)? … one more question. What about Guzman? .. Niki says what I lived before Roy is not important. Roy is my present and what I want to live. Vicky leaves it there and suggests they go downstairs to eat, takes some convincing but Niki gives in.
At B kitchen, Polita and JM talk about Anyballs getting through it. They are sad Anyballs won’t eat chicharron (Fried pork skins) anymore. Greek salad with goat cheese… yum!! .. JM and Tomasina talk a bit too much about Niki eating the salad being good for her. Polita asks what is wrong with Niki’s health that suddenly she is going to doctors and taking meds. Tomasina says that due to all the dieting Niki has not eaten very well lately. Polita comes up with her own diagnosis, worms in her stomach. Then Polita says she misses Frankie, hopes he is having a good time with his family. The subject moves on to Felipe’s debt, how did he pay? … not sure but not important. Polita makes a comment about Frankie’s hard times with Niki (la ricitos de oro), leaves pacing like a French maid with a ‘Con per mua’ (LOL!!)
Angel is on cell phone with Cristina trying to explain ‘the day he had’… with Anyballs heart attack. Cris asks how is he. Angel says better, but still in ICU and not allowing visitors. Cris tells him about the kidnapping rescue Frankie and Dances did. And now the gossip queen in Cris can’t resist telling him also about Paula’s secret being Frankie and Bea’s mom.
At dinner table, Niki is reluctantly eating. Niki notices Vicky is a bit sad.
Vicky tells her she loves her.
Meanwhile, Paula asks Dances to not tell anything to her son. Dances says ok. Lilli asks Dances if he is sure they made sure Guillo did not see anything violent. Dances says Frankie and him ensured Guillo would not realize the kind of father he has. Then Lilli asks about ANyballs. And gets a pain in her chest when Dances explains Anyballs got ill when he argued with Adri about her child. Right then Frankie and Bea arrive. Lilli gets worried. Bea says she is ok thanks to Frankie and Bea. Frankie tells Dances Bea won’t accuse Leo.
Bea thanks Dances for all he did. Dances says you can count on me always.
Paula comes out… greets Bea lovingly. Frankie has a grumpy face realizing now he will have to give Dances some explanations (his and Bea being Paula’s kids)
Previews: Adri struggles with Paula about the whereabouts of her daughter.
Dances tells Frankie if he finds out Leo tried anything with Bea
Angel and Vicky have an intimate moment.

Amor Bravío #141 (Uni 136) Thu 3/7/13 Amor Despierto
It's been quite a long day, so I'm going to be summarizing a lot more than usual. I'll slow it down if anything really important comes up….
Dionisio knows that Agustina is working to get evidence that he's Hector Gutierrez. Dio mentally vows revenge. Agustina is jumpy when he comes into the room finally…her beanie may be slipping because she actually notices he's looking at her strangely.
Vivi, Rafa, and Aaron report on the day's progress at getting Isadora thrown in jail for good. Leoncio's testimony just wasn't compelling enough, but hopefully Amanda's and her neighbor's will be. Miriam enters and has Caridad bring baby Agatha (poor kid…that name's going to suck when she grows up) to the window so Daniel can wave and croak at her…good thing she's not in the room or that might have freaked her out.
Osvaldo will be at Amanda's early tomorrow to escort her to the police station to give her testimony.

Off-duty bloggers phone home! Porque el amor manda needs two (or more) of you
I'm behind the beat here because I've been very busy with another project and then the flu. But I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! As the anvils are whistling past our ears on Por ella we are assembling a new crew for the Colunga comedy "Porque el amor manda" - Ezra and I are stepping down and Wednesday and Thursday slots are available - unless somebody has already told me they're stepping up and I have spaced it out. Please EMAIL me at caray@mappamundi.com if you're interested in joining the team which will be head up by our redoubtable Cheryl!!
Thanks to all for keeping the ball rolling.
Melinama your blog mom
ps if you are interested in my other ridiculously arcane project, related to telenovelas only by the florid melodrama contained within - see Polish Jewish Cabaret, a blog where I am posting my own (vocal) recordings of Yiddish Theater songs from cabaret and kleynkunst between the world wars in Warsaw Poland. Here are a couple silly little samples - first, a song about poor girls ending up in brothels, set to a soppy old American tune "In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree"
and second, a free download (the rollicking more Jewish sounding 'Yosl Yosl') if you want to be on the mailing list for the project...

Amor Bravío #140 (Uni 135) Wed 3/6/13 “Vacuna Victory. Today’s Score: Good Guys – 1 Dio - 0 ”
Part 1: As we begin tonight's capitulo.....
Camila’s Cabana: Miriam, Vivi and Cam stand in Camila’s bedroom as Camila gives them the good news that Dan is in recovery, his pulse is strong and his fever is gone. Miriam goes to Dan’s bedside as he wakes up. Cami steps back and they exchange places. Dan appears to look at Miriam and yet sees a fuzzy Camila. He is groggy and asks “What am I doing here love, I love you”. But who is Dan directing the “te amo” to - Miriam or the Cami mirage? A disoriented Dan sees Miriam lean closer and hears her respond to him, “Te amo tambien”. Suddenly, Dan is not quite so disoriented and aware that he narrowly dodged a truth bullet. Camila explains to Dan that he contracted the virus, and that Miriam has been able to obtain the vaccine to cure him. Miriam gives praises to Camila as she adds that Camila has bravely been caring for him in the cabana. Dan wonders how a city girl like Miriam could have gotten her hands on rare bull pneumonia vaccines that no one else in Mexico could (TN medicine Dan). Miriam explains that she noted the information, sent it to Abe and told him to move heaven and earth to get the vaccine, pronto (while playing the guilt card just a teensy tiny bit). “Of course”, groans Dan adding that Abe would do anything for Miriam. Miriam replies that Abe knows how much she loves Dan and that she would do anything to save his life. As Miriam plants a smooch on Dan, Camila and Viv have “awkward!” written on their mask covered faces.

Amores Verdaderos #81 Tue 3/5/13 You're So Pretty When You Cry, and other nonsense
(I can't believe Leo actually said that!)
A quick recap, which may or may not be fleshed out later with more screencaps. My video capture is processing and will take a long time to finish. In the meantime, here is an overview with preview screencap:
Nikki can't take the stress anymore! |
OVERVIEW OF EVENTS MAY NOT BE LISTED IN ORDER: (I'm just typing from memory)
* Leo is completely off the rails crazy. Bea's still being kept hostage in the car mechanic's garage. He has gagged Beatriz with duct tape. When he removes the tape (harshly—she cries in pain) and she tries to cry for help, it's back to duct tape for her. Tears stream down her face and onto the duct tape. Poor Beatriz!
* Roy the Boy is feigning love for Nikki while hitting on some chicks at the tennis court. Viewerville is given many, many hints that this guy is no good.

Por ella soy Eva #159 3/5/13: KaBOOM
Juan grabs some random unconscious guy.
Eugenia tells Modesto that now isn't the time to turn his back on his son.
As Helena steams, Plutigloats in her ear.s
De-moussed mousse boy invites Modesto to stay at his place, at least as long as this unpleasantness lasts.
Enter JC, dressed as doctor, to speak to the comatose Adriano. I don't know if it makes sense, but everything i did I did for love. But I don't see how that would actually make things any better.
But it works - when he mentions mimi and the real baby, he opens his eyes. Get out of this place! You better take advantage of the chance to escape, because when I get outta here I won't rest till you're in jail.
At home, Helena weeps.
Renato has a hug and a patching-up with his Dad. Both apologize.
. . .Cerberez here, filling in for Melinama. . .
Today we get an awful lot of people standing around gasping, wondering how this could ever have happened. I don't begrudge them that.
We'll start this off with Mad Dad. He still looks pretty grumpy, but he gives his daughter a sweet hug and an apology and refrains from telling her "I told you so."
Here comes Pluto (in, at last, a shiny tux) and he wants a word with Helena...Does he really think he can get her back? Anyway, you can practically see the canary feathers stuck between his teeth. He comes to shove his stolen goodbye letters in her face and Rub it in some more.
Meanwhile, JC calls. Helena ignores it, but picks it up when Pluto leaves. JC begs and begs and begs for a chance to explain, and she says he's dead to her.
Renato consoles a weeping Mimi, who seems to buck up a bit with a "vida de color rosa" speech.
Helena heads out for a midnight walk through a scenic parking lot. Pluto tails her as she goes to meet Juan, who tells her for the zillionth time that he did everything for love. It's a pretty thin excuse. She lays into him pretty satisfyingly. It's an impressive anvil, and he certainly deserves it! He keeps begging for a chance to explain, but he really has nothing more than "I did it because I love you." Fortunately, the cops come to lock him up, and we don't have to listen to any more of this. Pluto comes rushing to the scene to get his boy-scout badge, but she wonders what gave him the right to follow her. He honestly thought he was at least gonna get a hug. What a chump!
Mimi gets her obligatory weeping-over-the-patient hospital scene. Come back for my baby! I mean, your baby! The nurse drags her out and his eyes open a bit.
Uh-oh, it looks like Mimi isn't going to be able to go back to her place after Juan's been arrested. I think the cops are there. She'll stay w/ Lucia for the time being.
At the jail, we realize that JC is also officially being charged with homicide. I notice that, while many other characters have changed clothes, Pluti is still in his shiny tux. Now he shares some congratulatory glass of champagne with Onesimo. But that quickly sours. He sends Onesimo out, though, so he can swill more champagne of self-congratulation in private.
He wakes up a total mess, but Rebe busts in wearing a rattlesnake-pattern dress. She wants some smooches with her husband-to-be. She wants an heir, a plutarquito. He's really too drunk to mount any kind of defense.
Juan paces his cell as Helena paces her room. There is a sappy song sung by Juan's actor.
Mimi - I want to go be with Adri... "ando con jesus en la boca." what does that mean?
The good guys discuss plans. Renato has a video of Pluto and Rebe during his marriage to Antonia. Santi looks hilarious. he's shocked - "but I thought he LOVED Antonia." I thought everyone knew.
Wow, what a typical twist - Helena is pregnant.Whoop-dee-doo!
...
Have fun with the rest of the show!

Amores Verdaderos #80 Mon 3/4/13 Hey Super-Superman, Just Connect the Dots Already, Captas?
* In the kitchen Angel, Lili, Tomasina and Jean Marie are talking about Cristina: Little Orchid says she was very mad at her when she told him that she was going to visit the countryside with her dad and the Balvanera sisters. Arriaga thinks that Cris’s right about Adriana: she’s adorable, but when she and Liliana are together, something weird always happens. Adriana, who overheard the conversation, enters the room and greets them.

Por ella soy Eva #158 3/4/12: CAT. OUT. OF. BAG.
Pluto is surprised to find Rebe in her slutty red-riding-hood suit and a bedroom full of flowers. She teases him about his impotence when he manages to decline. She manages to goad him into it, though! Could we score ANOTHER false pregnancy in this show?
But in the morning Pluti gets a visit from the ghost of Antonia - a nice touch.
Renato to Adri - I just don't know if this is the time for reconciliation w/ me and dad. It looks like his use of the mousse is decreasing as his self-confidence grows.
Pluto lurks in his car to see Helena pay a visit to Eva. Helena complements Eva on her "prizification," premificacion.
WOMAN OF THE YEAR
A reluctant Eva has to get shoved out onto the stage. She thanks them all for the world of help that they have all given her. "You're not giving this reward to a woman," she announces [scary music, santi and ferni gasp]. . . "but to all the women of Mexico." You've all changed my life, I am a better person for having all of you. She talks of the saintly Antonia and starts winding up to a song, but everyone in the wings says NO SINGING. She works in a little wink to Helena's mom when she says women don't need men to be happy. She has really sweet things to say about all her friends in the audience, and barely recovers from another slip, calling Eugenia "ma-" [everyone who knows the truth gasps] "-magnifica actriz". . . good one!
She is quite sweet to them all, and starts winding up for an announcement - she has to tell them all something very important: "No soy una mujer" [GAAH everyone who knows freaks out and we get some big juicy "drama" music]. . . "uhhh. . . no soy una mujer valiente."
Fernie echoes my sentiments with a hand signal reminding Juan to cut it short, and surprisingly manages to do it.
Afterwards Renato sidles up to Eva with a disc of accounting (presumably proof of Pluto's guilt?)
Meanwhile, Pluto has broken into Eva's room. He finds wigs, and much more juicily, a spare set of boobies. He keeps going and finds a conveniently placed set of photos that lead him to the truth - Eva is Juan Carlos! But it gets juicier - he finds a pair of letters addressed to Adri and Helena - they must be a confession for after the planned disappearance of Eva. He makes his shark smile.
Juan sets up a meeting with Helena and starts to say goodbye and thanks to Eva. You've helped me, my dear, and taught me, and I'll miss you so much. Then he cackles with glee and dances when he finally gets those stockings off for the last time! Lord, he sure looks weird dancing in his undies and his boobies!
Next thing we know, Pluto joins Adri, who's waiting for Eva. Pluto jokes about Eva disappearing and leaving him at the altar, and jokingly lends him a gun.
Juan romantically makes out with Eva in his plaid boxer shorts. They have a great night, and then, in bed, she goes on and on about how she trusts him now and knows he'd never, ever mislead her. Viewerville is acutely aware of the whistling noise of the plummeting foreshadowing.
The next morning, in his bed at Mimi's, Juan is delighted to wake up and not have to dress as a lady again, but Mimi brings emergency news! Lucia and Helena and Lalito are here to help her get dressed and rush her to the church. ZOMG! At the primping party, things begin to look grim for her prospects of escape, with ladies all around. The wedding dress is a quite impressive display of foofery. Eva flips and screams, overwhelmed, but the ladies drag her along. She keeps trying to run away! Eugenia, on the phone: "COMO QUE SE VA A CASAR..." With all of them plus Lalo shoving, they finally manage to wedge her in the car. She tries to escape again, but it's too late! They're at the church!
Pluto is in a tux that isn't shiny - I'm a little disappointed.
As the pressure rises, Juan's face begins to spasm! Helena puts the veil on, and a quivering Eva begins to trundle down the carpet as slowly as she can manage, dragging an absurdly long train! Adri gets tired of waiting and he heads out to drag her in! OMG this incredible! Fortunately, mom to the rescue! Mimi brings her in at the last minute! But no, no rescue, they just bought her a little time. Now, as the priest asks if anyone has an objection, her phone rings! She pulls it out of the front of her dress to find out about the failure of the safe-snatching plan! Adri interrupts- DO IT, FATHER! Eugenia loos sick, but not as sick as Eva. The priest actually looks like Modesto. Priest: will you take this man - Eva: that's a tricky question, etc. . . stalls for a few minutes. Pluto smirks. Finally, when it comes down to it, she/he takes off the wig/makeup and
EEEEVVERYONE FREAKS OUT!
That's it!
Note - Friday is the last day (it'll be a two hour show). How can Helena possibly forgive Juan by then? I mean, in any way that's remotely satisfying for viewerville. My only theory at this point is that she'll move away in anger and we'll get a "months later..." for Juan's final apology, but even that sounds a little hollow.

Amores Verdaderos #79 Fri 3/1/13 True Love Diaries and If Lovin' You Is Wrong I Don't Wanna Be Right
Dear Patio Peeps,
Yeah, we've had too much Baileys. We thought we would drop you a line to say howdy. See we told you we would incorporate some more comedy in this TN. There will be more coming, you can count on it. We also got a letter from PETA, complaining of our shabby treatment of Balzac, you know letting him run all over the D.F. in the storyline. We assured them that Balzac is safe and sound. Not a spoiler, but we wouldn't mistreat a dog. We also want to give a shout out to NovelaMaven who got that letter from Kendritta. Needless to say, we gave her a dressing down for sending you that letter, and told her in future, she must show us the letter before she sends anymore. We like your Patio and want to keep it Kendho free. We have heard some chisme that FF and Anyballs are up in arms about no table for them either. Don't be surprised if you receive a letter from them. Just a heads up. Now we have to get back to writing more of this TN but just wanted to drop our Patio Peeps a line to let them know we are enjoying the Patio and also that store you now have set up. We'll keep in touch.
Sincerely,
The Writers
We start this epi with Guzmi and Felipe talking about the gambling, Ms Vikki and the Angel talking about how her "reconciliation" with FF is just for show, not hanky panky, it's just for Nikki's benefit. And then Nikki and Roy and how many championships he's won with the tennis and now he's done. And how Nikki is gonna be his future wife. He tells Ms Vikki this and she is shocked, I tell you shocked! She personally, to herself, doesn't think Nikki is ready for this. So Roy explains he means not tomorrow of course, but they are gettin married and besides adds Nikki that they have known each other a long time, were a couple before and that the families have known each other foreva! We'll get back to them.

Por ella soy Eva #157 3/1/13: Sugar, I'm Going Down Swinging, If I Can't Have You, I Don't Want No Body Baby
I'm going down, down in an earlier round:
So Pluti is meeting with the henchies and finds out that Helena was indeed with JC in Acapulco, cause the guy swears on his Motha, well, maybe not that, but you get the drift, it is so true she was with this guy in the pic, doncha know, so now Pluti is in denial, ya know that river in Egypt, can't be that infeliz is so dead. But on second thought, Pluti is gonna make good and sure that JC is really dead, but the henchie tells him he can't follow Helena or JC cause they know who he is. So Pluti decides to take the task on himself. He is gonna find the proof of JC being alive or dead. Just watch him.
