Quick Plot Points - Full Recap Follows After the Jump: 

• David stood up for Marta and Luciana to Liliana. David makes the workplace decisions! Liliana wasn't happy about this.
• David isn't ready to sell the vineyard to evil olive oil guy and Juan. Juan may have been making workplace decisions for awhile, but now David is back making the workplace decisions. They aren't happy about this.
• Liliana has made a workplace decision of her own - she's just going to make life hell for Marta and Luciana, starting with dropping a dish and making Marta clean it up. Marta can deal with that, but warns Liliana to watch it when it comes to Luciana. 
• Miguel and Luciana are totally cute as he gives her the vineyard tour. He's happy about this.
• Miguel's totally cute tour is broken up by David who wants to give Luciana a vineyard tour. It's awkward. Miguel is jealous.
• Fernanda overhears Miguel and Carlos/Tano discussing Miguel's jealousy and Luciana's hotness and makes it more awkward. Fer is not happy that her crush Tano thinks Luciana is hot.
• Luciana has an idea concerning organic grapes but she needs open sunlight through a window to discuss it with David. He does not like this. They fall on top of each other fighting over the drapes. It's awkward.
• Fernanda walks in on this "workplace meeting" and doesn't like it. Even more awkward. She demands that David get rid of Luciana. He won't. Too bad. David makes the workplace decisions!
• Miguel walks in on a Mean Girls division meeting and calls them out. Perla makes it more awkward by telling Miguel that Carito crushes on him.
• Luciana wants to tend to a dying rosebush. David doesn't like that and says no. DAVID MAKES THE WORKPLACE DECISIONS.
• Gutierrez visits Liliana and flirts with Marta. Awkward.
• Susan and Cesar have a (not all that awkward, just normal awkward) first date but then he brings her back to the vineyard office. That was kind of awkward.
• Carlos/Tano is apparently crushing on Susan and tells her this but also tells her he thought she only liked professional men. She gets mad he judged her as a snooty type. Awkward.
• Fueled by the awkward situations above, Fernanda officially joins the I Hate Luciana Sooooo Much club after hanging with Liliana and skype sessions with Gracie.  She visits the worker house to tell Luciana this! Awkward!

Camilo has organized a private dinner for his wife, with a private view of a private body of water and a private sax player performing a romantic rendition of the couple’s private theme song.

In Madrid, Adrián is working late to finalize a presentation due tomorrow. Triana comes back from the Tablao looking rather glum (apachurrada).

• Luciana told Miguel that nothing improper happened at the river. “I'd never have anything to do with him. First, he's the boss. Second, he's crazy.” Miguel asked whether she knew what had happened to Lisa and she did, saying she would never have provoked this on purpose. Miguel reminded her of Lillian's reaction; she didn't care what that vitch thought. “But she will take it out on your mother.”

Ines wishes him good luck and hangs up. Adrian is devastated.

Ines turns around and sees that Paulina was listening to everything. Paulina asks her about what he wanted and Ines explains that she didn’t let him talk. Paulina tells her that it was probably for the best, she doesn’t want to talk to him anymore. Ines tells her that she says one thing but her eyes betray her. Paulina agrees and Ines reiterates that if she already got married with Camilo so she shouldn’t speak to him again.

In Madrid, Adrian is crying on the stairs. He took the wedding news to mean that regardless of what Julieta or Odette did, Paulina still married Camilo so she must love him. Therefore, everything she told him at their failed wedding must be true. He promises to forget her.

Alfonso informs Gonzalo that they are going to trial for the divorce since he doesn’t agree to it. Alfonso tells him to agree to Ines’ demands and he will win a lot more, like Ines’ trust and respect, both of which he lost completely. Gonzalo quietly thinks about this.

Alan and Rene are ecstatic about the wedding news. They hug and kiss Gonzalo, happy that they will finally be a family.

Karen is telling Paulina about how wonderful Flavio is. He’s always checking up on her and has helped her with her suppliers. Paulina finds her sudden dependence on him strange since she’s always been very independent but Karen argues that it feels great to feel like you have someone with you every step of the way. Paulina is happy for her and Karen tells her she’s happy she’s also given Camilo an opportunity.

Alan asks Gonzalo if there are all going to live in the same house and Gonzalo tells them that that’s the idea but things are going to change. Firstly, they have to leave Puerto Esperanza. Gonzalo wants to construct a new hotel in Chetumal so he wants them there every step of the way.

Gisela and Dario give Jaime the news that they’re moving in together but he has to fake his smile and happiness. He tells Gisela that he didn’t know this side of her but he’s been surprised. Gisela tells him that she doesn’t believe in marriage but things could change; she’s happy just to be with Dario for now.

Gonzalo explains that in Puerto Esperanza they will always be judged for being his second family and Alan tells him he’s more than happy to move. He would love to see a hotel from the ground up. Rene is sad though because he won’t see his friends anymore, including Paulina and Mauricio. Gonzalo offers a deal: they can visit when he comes over to Puerto Esperanza and the kids agree.

Bullet points (some combined)

• Lisa tried to comfort Marta. She knew that Lillian has bothered her.
• Juan arrived at La Migra to tell Gutierrez that Marcos' papers are pending. They go into an office to discuss this. Gutierrez didn't give a damn, saying that this is trumped by Marcos hitting him. Juan started backing off and got a call from David. When David got there Juan said to leave it all to him. However, he caved on the issue and Gutierrez laughed. Later at home David explained that Marcos was defending his daughter. He then told Juan he needs a lawyer who specializes in these cases. Lillian must have been silently gloating, as she was in the room.

Hiya Patio Pals! It doesn’t look like we’ll be getting a recap from Princess Juju today, so here’s a space for those of you who wish to discuss Tuesday’s episode. I haven’t watched it yet and won’t be able to do so right now because it’s 1 am my time. Apologies to all. If any of you is able to volunteer some episode highlights that’d be greatly appreciated. Cheers, everyone. Good night.


Our friend Alfredo, a.k.a Superalfie, has kindly provided the following highlights:


-- Gonzalo talked to Eulate Morales, the crooked bank guy, about giving the documents to Julieta and threatened him with jail time because he suggested he deposited the money offshore in the original “fraud”.


-- Leonel convinced Nuria not to be too hard on The Gonz about his double life. It is best to take her father’s side because it would benefit her and Leonel in their rise to power within the hotel consortium.

Chapter 1: Divide and Destroy


On a beautiful sunny afternoon in the vast wine country that is southern California two kids raced through the paths of the vineyard, promising that the later one at the finish line buys the candy. At another spot in the vineyard the girl's father stacked boxes of red grapes while her mother and brother came out to talk to him about going somewhere the next afternoon.


Marcos was a tall man in his forties with a direct and honest face. His fair complexion and dark hair insured his attractiveness and complemented his ease with people. His wife Marta was fairer still, with dark golden hair. They were a happy couple and good parents to Luciana and León. The boy was about eight years old, playful and intelligent.

(Cara de) Well, this explains the cray-cray!
At a glance


-- Adrián’s sainted Pops was never a saint! Bazinga!

-- Mr. Peanut Butter & Slime learns that he has been officially designated as Nuria’s baby daddy! Bazinga!


A closer look


At the beach of silent love and thwarted reconciliation, Paulina had a full two minutes to tell Adrián that she is carrying his unibrow baby but she squandered the precious time talking about the kiss she shared with Camilo and “omitted” to mention. Adrián doesn’t want to hear her anymore: You are dead to me! Shouting out: “I’m pregnant!” would’ve shut Adrián right up but it’s more aesthetically-pleasing to squeeze out a few pretty tears by the seashore while an adorable blond cherub consoles you.

Alas, all good (albeit slightly drawn out and convoluted at times) things must come to an end. Julie and I tag-teamed this one and it's below in two installments.

For my part I want to say that it has been an absolute pleasure to recap alongside such a wonderful talented team, and discuss along with such bright, insightful, imaginative and entertaining group of folks. You guys are the best. Thank you so much for making this a fabulous fantastic ride!

Part I (Julie) 

Everyone's come home from Facundo's cabin. AnaLet is missing. Ernestina is worried, but doesn't want them to keep anything from her.

Up in AnaLet's room, Leonor shows Mariano the blood-soaked dress (bosom bandage, per Jardinera) that AnaLet left behind. Just then, Mariano receives word that Claudia... "what?" Mariano asks his lawyer Samuel.

Ghoulieta receives a large envelope with a note from Inaki: "Here is the truth about the death of your son, Daniel." It's a tablet, with Inaki's confession ready to play. Ghoul and Viridiana watch, horrified, as Inaki says he killed Daniel out of spite for all that Daniel had and Inaki didn't.

Nuria looks forward to nail Leonel as her baby's father
After Inés heart attack Nuria's wedding could be in danger, but she can not afford that or the baby could be born after just 4 months after the ceremony and no baby, as premature as can be, has ever born that soon after signing up the nuptial contract.

Gonzalo looks for forgiveness
After Inés heart attack, Gonzalo talks to Dr Flowers because he wants to see her, but she is still too upset weak to see him. The doctor recommends she is left alone, but still, he will see if something can be arranged. Gimme just 1 minute- Gonzalo asks - sure, what will you do with the 50 seconds left?

in that precise moment, Raquel comes out from Inés room, and even when Gonzalo asks her about his wife, she punished him with the whip of her indifference and doesn't reply. It is like he is invisible. Ouch!

Ines wants Elisa to leave. She’s not feeling well but Elisa keeps egging her on about how Gonzalo lied about divorcing Ines and marrying Monica and went so far as lying about her health. Ines wants Elisa to leave and she finally agrees. As she is leaving, Paulina comes in and asks what she’s doing there. Suddenly, Ines faints and hits the ground. Paulina goes to help her and Elisa runs out.

Adrian asks who came by and Odette tells him it was Paulina. He asks what she wanted and she tells she doesn’t know but it doesn’t do him good to see her. Adrian tells her she’s reminding her of his sister: she’s obsessive about him. Adrian tells her to never again decide for him or meddle in his life. He leaves, bothered by her actions.

The doctor tells Julieta that if she goes to therapy and behaves well she can get out faster. Julieta finally agrees and then the doctor asks what happened with her father…Julieta tells that her father’s death caused her great pain. He left her and Adrian alone…he stopped living after he lost all his money.

In his office, Adrian questions why Paulina came. He gives her a call but hangs up immediately. He thinks she’s with Camilo.

In Gonzalo’s office, Nuria is fuming. He comes in and she tells him that she knows everything about his affair and demands he force Monica and the kids to leave Puerto Esperanza. Gonzalo tells her to mind her own business but Nuria warns him that if he doesn’t listen to her she will tell her mom everything and tell Paulina he put Adrian in jail. She’s not willing to share any of her inheritance with them. She storms out afterward.

Ramiro wakes up and is surprised to see Valentin and Facundo. He's even more surprised to realize that he can't feel his legs. Valentin laughs and says bwahahaha, before you marry Ana Laura you ought to see for yourself what it is to be "differently-abled."

AnaLu and Ana Laura are chatting intensely when AnaLet barges in, strikes a pose, and demands, "why are you suddenly all quiet? Am I interrupting something?" Ana Laura solemnly lets Leticia know that yes, she is interrupting. AnaLet asks what they were talking about. AnaLu smiles and says, "about you." Leticia continues to stand there like a department store mannequin.

Mariano asks Marcelo to leave, but Marcelo doesn't want to leave without AnaLu. He warns that AnaLet could have an attack of hysteria at any moment, and since he's signed the divorce papers, she's no longer Marcelo's problem. AnaLu's love is all he wants in the world, and he won't give her up.

Valentin gloats some more about Ramiro's paralysis, "your legs have become a burden," and says he and Ramiro will now be on equal footing (no he didn't say it that way) in their fight for Ana Laura's affection, though I don't think it's really a fair competition unless Ramiro drinks a fifth of tequila too.

Working on the recap - Edit.

Pate 1~~

[--This, Halloween and Rocky Horror Picture Show fans, was right up your alley.  It was definitely one to say “Get your freak show on.”—edit.] 

Refridito: Alone in her jail cell, a pensive Soledad misses and mourns her wrecked relationship with Ana Lucia and recognizes, finally, how selfish she was to have kept the girl as her own all these years; Ana Lucia, meanwhile is having another nightmare, but this time she dreams of the accident and awakes to the realization Ana Leticia didn’t try to help keep her from floating away in the river.  (Now, let’s see if it sticks in her craw or not like it does Viewerville.)

El Nuevo:
Ana Lucia hears Javier sobbing in the sheets and learns he’s crying over having seen his mother in Iñaki’s apartment a few weeks earlier and wasn’t even aware of it.  She abandoned them when they were tiny boys and he’s missed her and is angry at her but needs her in his life still.  They ask each other if either of them will ever forgive the mother figures in their lives.

The next morning Marcelo watches in amazement as Ana Lucia dangles in the fabric ropes.

Speaking of spellbinding, Mariano and Viewerville listen, enchanted by the piano music supposedly coming from Ana Laura’s adroit digitery along the ivories.  He heads outside and finds Valentin waiting for “his BFF,” Ana Llora, Queen of the quivering upper lip.  They argue and Mo tells him to roll his sorry assets down the lane and never darken his niece’s door again!  A Llora comes out and objects to her only friend in the world’s rough and unfair treatment.  Mo tries warning her that Violentin has ulterior motives—“--he is not who he appears to be”-- but TinTin moves in for a kill shot.   “—And you, puritanical Uncle Mariano. Are you who you appear to be?”

After Odette announces that she is going to go get her masters in Spain as well, there is an awkward pause. Adrian tells her that the scholarship process was very extensive and time consuming but Odette tells him that she can pay of it out of pocket. Dario agrees. Odette tells Adrian all she needs is the plan of study and the university information. Adrian tells her it’s in Puerto Esperanza, he can bring it when he goes but Odette wants to go with him. Adrian tells he’s not trying to be rude but he’s on a scholarship and needs to focus on his studies, first and foremost. Odette explains that she wants to obtain her masters and this isn’t a game for her. Dario says that her decision surprised him but it’s an excellent opportunity for her. He and Gisela and Jaime can take care of the agency in their absence. Odette then says that when her and Adrian come back, their studies will help them make the agency one of the best in the country. Adrian is still not all too happy about these turn of events.

Karen gives Micaela the money Paulina gave her to start the business in Playa Linda. She explains since Paulina won’t be moving there anymore she would like to return it. Micaela tells her that she’ll give it to her when she says her because she has moved out of the house and into Camilo’s house. She asks Karen not to say anything because her parents think she’s still with her. Karen tells her that Paulina has lost all shame but Micaela defends Paulina and tells her not to talk about her like that.

That's "Triple Play" if you're counting slappers, and "Double Play" if you're counting gunshots.

Mariano tries to get AnaLu to change her mind about avoiding the family. If she won't stay at the mansion, she could at least come to his house so he can make up for lost time with her. She won't do it. She doesn't know where she'll go - maybe San Nicolas for a while. He wants her to travel the world. She'll think about it. No, she agrees - as long as Soledad can get out of jail. Mariano doesn't want to let a criminal get away with her crimes. AnaLu says although it's not easy to forgive her, she can't hate Soledad and won't let Mariano speak that way of the woman who gave her such a good and happy life. And if Mariano won't do it, AnaLu will still have the help of Viridiana!

At the jail, Valeria's getting out tomorrow, she tells Soledad. Soledad is happy for her. Val says she won't forget her, and will talk to the family on her behalf. Soledad says nah, I'll just rot here in jail. I've lost my freedom forever, but I'll always have my memories of AnaLu's childhood.

Leonor tells Ernestina of Ana Laura's temper tantrum. She didn't go off with a driver - she took one of the cars. This is alarming, because she's never driven, but Leo says Laura reminded her that Uncle Mariano taught her to drive and she's not as useless as everyone thinks!
