Hey, JudyB,  it is warm on the patio tonight. We brought out some fans to help cool  off.   Tonight we have a selection of fresh fruit: cherries, grapes, pineapple, watermelon, peaches, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, mango, cantaloupe, honeydew melon and lots of icy drinks. Save me a seat near a fan. I need it! 

1.  Olga talks way too long telling Natalia how she is done with Chente. She realizes that Chente doesn't care for her at all because of how mean he is to her.  The wedding is canceled. Natalia says Chente talked to her about the doubts that he had but she refuses to get involved because that's something that is between him and Olga. Olga  tells Natalia that she is going to get an abortion. Natalia tries to talk her out it. Olga says she cannot bring a baby into the world condemned to live without their father. It is her body and her decision. 

2. Chente goes to visit 2XJosé to give him the good news.  They have a lawyer and a real clever one at that. It turns out that Simba was able to give his statement before he died and he told the truth. They will be able to get 2X out of jail real soon. 2X is relieved because jail has been such a nightmare for him.

⦁ Gustavo is still mooning over the picture of Chole's ultrasound.

⦁ The neighborhood has joined together to cook much of the food so that Natalia will be able to open her fonda the next day.  She and her mother and daughters also were able to scrounge around to prepare everything ordered by Don Julian.  Happy, happy!  Joy, joy!

⦁ Gustavo appears at Chole's shop with a bouquet in hand and begs for forgiveness for doubting her.  He informs her that Fernanda confirmed that the supposed doctor who told him years ago that he was sterile was a conman who was fired.  (--and I hope, prosecuted?)  Although Fer has recommended taking new tests he won't because he knows in his heart her baby has to be his.  Chole tells him to go pound sand.

Hey, Judy, B, we are into the final stretch!  It looks like it will be another exciting episode tonight. It is a truly lovely evening  on the patio. We have some pie tonight: cherry or blueberry,   a la mode if you wish.  We also have throws out tonight to keep nice and comfy. 

Here we go!

1. It is the next morning at the boarding house and breakfast time. JuanGa is looking for Granny Magos. Olga says she took Ben to school and nastily adds that Granny Magos is capable of doing that other own.  Claudio complains about being cold in his room while Chole reminds him that it must be better than  sleeping on a park bench. Surprisingly, Claudio agrees saying  the neighborhood is in the hands  of criminals and tells how other day he got assaulted and Simba did too. Chole cannot believe that Simba was assaulted. JuanGa jokes that they must have stolen his soap being as filthy as he is. Claudio explains how those vandals strongly clawed his neck. Chole asks if he is sure about what he is saying. Claudio says he is. Olga appears to stare off into space as she listens carefully. Chole explains that Natalia told her that she gave the guy who tried to hurt her a good clawing on his neck.  She concludes that the guy must have been Simba. Mario agrees that if he has a scratch mark on his neck, the attacker must have been Simba. Chente comes in wondering why everyone is so quiet.

⦁ At Constanza's palatial manse the familial reunion "de verdad" is finally taking place. Samia asks how her adoption plans are progressing and Elias adds the icing on my cake by telling her how he admires Connie's courage to become parents at her age.  (Finally,a bit of sparsely sprinkled sanity.)  Connie defends her actions to assist her niece, Andrea, in her time of need as well despite nasty accusations of her family.  No matter.  That is resolved now with the marriage.  Samia takes her leave and Eli makes his proposition to Conz: how would you like to raise my future heir out of the country but by your side and avoid his being a social climber like his mother?  Connie is prepared to do ANYTHING!

 Here's your recap~ Events may not be in order

.

We start with Natalia explaining to the girls that she is going to return to Adrian but only to find out if he really is involved in criminal activity- and if she is she will gather the evidence needed to send him back to prison, she makes both girls promise to not mention a word of this to anyone.

Sidenote: OMG, what in the world is going on with Andrea's eyebrows? She gives Peter Gallagher a run for his money.

Elsewhere Elias and Adrian meet, they are "celebrating" the new business venture that is bound to net them much more money than Natalia's stolen inheritance. Elias also makes it known that Veronica is HIS (ewww), she's really great in bed and Adrian better stay away from her. Adrian tells Elias that Veronica is a ticking time bomb.

Next, Claudio. He is in a bad way. Constanza gives him one last drink before she kicks him out of the house, he shows up outside Natalia's house and discharges the gun, he's too drunk to actually hurt himself, Tere allows him into the house but tells im that just because she's allowing him to stay there it does not mean that they are back together.

Hey, JudyB, there are plenty of icy beverages on the patio tonight but it is BYOS: Bring Your Own Snack.  Summer has just started but it has gotten the best of many of us (like me) already! 

1. The episode opens with Natalia telling Adrián that she is still in love with Chente and he telling her that he will do all he can to make her forget him. She makes it clear that he needs to take it slow as they give their marriage one last chance.  (I must say that Susana González being the great actress she is is able to portray Natalia as a very poor actress as she lies to Adrián.  How could he ever have believed her???) 

2. Mario is in no mood to talk about the car restoration business with Vale. His mind is somewhere else and he leaves with an annoyed Vale who thinks he must be involved with another woman. 

4. Once outside of the repair shop,  Mario calls Agent Sandra Arellanos. He is ready to cooperate with the authorities to establish his innocence.

⦁ Vicente and Magos discuss the upsetting news that Benji wants to "divorce" his family because he doesn't want to live with Olga. Natalia comes in to say she's keeping Benji's room for him.

⦁ Benji, Regina and Lorenzo discuss her "talent" at reporting and uploading it to her personal "channel."  Lorilocks praises Regina's reporting talents.

Hey, JudyB, it is another scorcher on the patio tonight. The Good Humor man will be making his rounds with endless treats!  I have always liked the strawberry shortcake or the Mickey ice cream bar myself. Decisions, decisions! 

1. Mario is confronting Vero about his sister Tania. She hopes he has left his tigress in her cage with a double lock on the  door. He tells her not to talk about his novia that way. She smiles saying she agrees that he should be affectionate with his pets, but he needs to train them. He makes it clear that he is not there for insults but came to clarify the situation with his sister. She is convinced that Adrián was behind the death of his sister. Mario tells her the dates don't match and shows her some documents to prove it. Tania  was dead before Adrián traveled to Italy. Vero thinks that Adrián must have hired a hitman. Vero is impressed by Mario's attitude. Tania abandoned him when he was in jail,  left with all of his money and it still hurts him to have lost her. He says she was still  his sister and the only family that he had. He blames Vero for having pressured Tania to have done what she did. Vero pats him on the face and tells him that he is a good man. He recoils from her touch. Maybe she made a mistake choosing Adrián. She asks Mario if they had married, would they have been happy?

Trust me when I tell you that having to re-wind to watch as honey drips from Olga's lying lips and Adrian's vile smile a mile giggling is truly giving me a leg up on sainthood. --  ed!

Ø  Andrea tells her mother to be kind to her papi.  Adrian has maneuvered the fonda's shutdown and now gotten it lifted by the so-called Health Department officials.   Vicente gives Magos the bad news about his decision to make an honest woman of Olga (as if).  Olga comes back to the boarding house while Adi and Natalia are still chatting.  She yells for Chole who eventually comes into the patio area with the others.  La Vulga feigning innocence advises all there that Chente has proposed.Read more »

Hey, JudyB, it is a hot one on  the patio tonight.  We have Italian ice in the traditional: lemon, strawberry or chocolate to help us keep our cool! 

1. At Connie's,  Claudio begs Tere to take him back. He threatens suicide as he does repeatedly in this episode. Tere throws him out. He sits on the steps of the mansion as Tere cries inside. 

2. Connie goes to see Vero feeling she had not other choice after the threats Vero made to her. What dos Vero want? Ver smiles.

3. Chente is still begging for Natalia to continue their relationship. She is begging him, in spite of their love for each other, to end it all. 

4. Vero asks why Connie didn't greet her at the quinceañera. Connie answers that she doesn't like to be associated with social climbers.  Vero wonders if the real reason is that she is afraid that Natalia might  discover that Connie always knew about what was going on with Vero and Adrián. Connie says she knew "something" about it. Vero pins her down saying she knew all about it but wouldn't get involved to warn her sister. Connie has to admit the day that Natalia found out about Vero and Adrián  was one of the happiest days of her life. What Connie didn't expect was that Adrián would get bored with Vero so quickly. Vero insists that Adrián is still hers. Connie wonders about that knowing that Adrián begged Natalia on his knees for another chance. Vero is sure he isn't after Natalia for love. He is hiding some dark secret from her and she is going to find out what it is.

Judy B, hate to say but our shindig on the patio was cancelled last night due to the horrible thunderstorms and tornado warnings. Both episodes were pre-empted by weather reports.  That didn’t matter much but then the electricity went out.  I watched the episodes  on my phone this a.m. and am now having a lovely coffee out ( before it hits 100).  I am on my trusty tablet and will give you a few highlights.

1. Olga makes sure she tells Natalia she is pregnant. JuanGa wants to marry her. Chole kicks her out. She wheedles her way into living at Chente’s. 2. Nobody believes 2XJosé about Lorenzo. Lorenzo might lose an eye from the fight but still puts the moves on Regina. 3. Natalia will always love Chente but theirs will never be. 4. Adrián and Vero get their freak on with guns and sex. She suspects he really wants to get back with Natalia because of some money he has discovered. 5. After talking to Fernanda, Mario decides to romantically pursue Vale. He tells her he loves her. 6.Granny Magos tells Chente to make sure Olga’s baby is his, but it seems he is too easily/stupidly swayed by her doctor/lab report. 7. Tavo is still with Connie and insulting Chole.8. Granny Magos tells Olga she has her number and calls her a slut to her face. 9. Tere finds out that perpetually drunkClaudio has been lying about  the ambassadorship and wants a divorce. 10. Adrián tries to put moves on Natalia again

It's that time again! We need to talk about who gets what's coming to him (or her) for all their evil deeds. Most of us here are experienced viewers so we know that what we think is right is not always what the writers will have done. So.... here we ask the two questions:

• What do you think the writers will do to them?

• What do you think they really deserve (if different)?

Keep in mind that all of these are sexist and classist.  All info is through Episode 79.

Veronica Alanis Gomez / Denia Agalianou

Guilty of at least one murder (Tania, sister of Mario), several counts of embezzlement, adultery, and probably various other sexually deviant behavior we have not been privy to. Guilty of colluding with Adrian and Pedro for embezzlement, Olga for potential crimes against Natalia, – including murder – and Elias against his own son. Paid Olga for information. Guilty of double-crossing Adrian and thinking she is all that and a pound of Beluga caviar.

We still don't know what the connexion is between blood and her yellow roses, but let's hope that gets confirmed. She may be the reincarnation of a past serial killer.

 [Parte 1~~ ***NOTICE: 2 hrs. of episodios this Monday night!!*** --Ed.]

⦁ Natalia tells Adrian it's time for her and Regina to move out and move on.  (Her boots were also made for walkin'....)  She's been there the past two weeks as a debt to him for risking his life to save her from the thieves.  He accuses her of reacting negatively to Veronica's unexpected visit.  Nopers!  She could care less--but isn't it curious that she's running around free as a lark when she's supposedly the mastermind behind all  the company fraud??? (Viewerville was so entirely awestruck it hadn't had a moment to question such.)  This is very astute on Nata's part and Adrian has to do a bit of a moonwalkin' two-step to come up with a (not-so-suitable) answer.  There is no proof so it's her word against his.  Period. (Who's bribed what judge would be my next question, but we are dealing with a pair of supposedly college-educated celluloid numbnuts so why bother?)   Nata insists numerous mysteries are abounding that he's preventing from coming to light.

Princess Juju was unable to join us, so here is little bit of this and that from last night.

--Chole reads Olga the riot act.   If she hears that she is bothering Natalia, she is out.

--Chente thought that Granny Magos was delirious from the anesthesia talking about a novio. She tells him that Heliiodoro  ended up being the joy of her mornings and her nights . . . those nights! Chente is visibly uncomfortable and says she doesn't have to say anymore.  She makes it clear that she is not going to be pulling any old man's oxygen tank for him. Since Heliodoro  is younger,  Chente is worried he could be taking advantage of her. No way! She likes her men strong and vigorous so they can keep up with her. Chente is worried about his intentions. Granny Magos doesn't take too kindly to that and wonders who asked him for his opinion anyway??? or his permission???  

--Granny Magos has Heliodoro running a mystery errand. It involves him having brought her some papers from her home. She is going to get together with him tomorrow to look them over and then she wants him to go back to their town and take care of business ASAP. It is urgent. 

--Chente is still all shook up having dreams and nightmares about Natalia.  

--Vale invites Mario to spend the night. He refuses saying he wants to take things more slowly.

 Hey,  JudyB,  looks like it could be another exciting episode tonight.  We have some Valencia orange infused tequila for your drinking pleasure with some nachos. Save me a seat!

1. Chente agrees that he is the biggest imbecile of all  because he has no idea how any of this happened. He begs for one more chance to show that he didn't do it but Natalia refuses. He would never want to hurt her or Olga. Olga  has been through so much. Natalia has a hard time containing  her anger and sarcastically agrees: "Yes, Poor Olga." Natalia then admits she feels sorry for Olga knowing everything she has done just to get a crumb of Chente's attention. Chente insists he would never hurt Natalia on purpose. She tells him he is worse than Adrián. She will never forgive him. He did the same thing to her that Adrián did after knowing how Adrián cheated on her. He tries to touch her as he begs to be forgiven again. She removes his hands and tells him not to touch her. She informs him that he has lost her forever. She knows who she is, what she is worth and she has her dignity.  She does not deserve to spend her life with another miserable man like him. His cheating hurts her so deeply but his lies insult her!! 

2. Tere asks Chole if she thinks she can solve things with Tavo. Chole says she thinks not because of how  he offended her and treated her as if she was the worst woman of them all. Tere believes in miracles and thought that Tavo would have been happy finding out she was pregnant. Chole plans on proving that the baby is Tavo's and then she will prevent him from returning to her life. She tells Tere she cannot imagine the horrible things that he said to her doubting  her and her love. He is sure she slept with somebody else and so he rejected their child. Julián Reus the caterer walks in the door looking for Natalia. Tere says she is her daughter and introduces herself. There seems to be some attraction. Tere directs him to the kitchen to find Natalia.

⦁ Viewerville is barely able to watch as Olga whispers her intentions into the sleeping Vicente's ears: she's going to convince him that this child of hers is really his and not that of either Simba or Adrian.  (Oh woe is we....)

⦁ Chole is shocked...shocked...to hear that Natalia caught La Vulga de  Olga in bed with Chente doing the down and dirty and telling the vulgar wench that he luuuhhhhvvvved her, and that she drove him crazy.  Even though Chole swears that in all this time Chente never responded to a single one of her attempts to seduce him.  Nata remembers that when she first came to the neighborhood Vulga constantly complained to Nata about getting close to Chente as if she and he had something together before she entered the picture.  She tells Chole it's useless to deny it any longer.  He is actually worse than Adrian because he knew what she'd been through and he took advantage of her knowing all this.  Chole insists there has to be some explanation.  Nata says that Adi already explained but she refused to believe it: Vulga confessed to him that she and Chente had an affair while he was married to Lucia; Chente had made all sorts of promises to her.  Chole says that's all a total lie.  She wasn't blind; she saw what she saw and it's apparent that they've been together for a long while.

WARNING:  JudyB, and everyone else. You better fasten your seatbelts for tonight's episode or at least parts of it. I had them installed on all of the patio chairs for tonight. I also found a supply of "air sickness bags" behind the grill to use as needed. We have extra beanies if you forgot yours. There will be light snacks and  beverages available but no mezcal tonight. ANY section marked with any number of asterisks will indicate it is a particularly troubling scene  for which you might want to fasten your seatbelt. The more asterisks, the more disturbing the scene.   ; )

This episode takes place during one day: the day that Natalia continues her work on and finishes her huge catering order that Chef Tellez got her. 

1. A very stressed Natalia comes home in a rush as everyone is working on the catering order. She explains that Chente is down at the municipal office where he was called to get some information on the running of the fonda. She reminds them that they need get moving because the next thing they have to do is make 150 servings of the matcha cake. They will have to work out of this kitchen and Chole's, too. She encourages them saying they will not give up. Andrea seems to have come around expressing her confidence in her mother and telling her what a super chef she is.

 Hey, JudyB,  we have a snack left-over-rama on the patio tonight. Let's see if we can clear them out. Feel free to take anything left with you. 

1. Andrea runs from her father's room. Adrián runs out half-dressed after her. She demands to know who SHE is cutting though his efforts to avoid answering the question. She calls him a liar and a traitor. He asks for just a minute as he retreats into her room. 

2. Back in his room he tells Olga to get dressed and  get out because Andrea has arrived. Olga starts to get dressed. 

3. Adrián goes back out into the hall more completely dressed telling Andrea that he is ready to talk to her. Andrea leads him away from the bedroom saying she doesn't want to hear what he has to say.  He follows his "little princess" his "little doll" all the way down the stairs. At the bottom, he grabs her arm which she wrenches away from him.  She confronts him about his wish to get back with her mother, to be one family again and now he has a woman in his bed. She  thought that he had bought the house for them. He grabs her again and she screams for him to let her go until he finally does. Suddenly,  he is all concerned about how upset she is getting carrying a baby. Andrea says she was the stupid one for believing him. He hugs her and as she struggles to get out of his embrace.  Olga slips out of the house sight unseen. He begs Andrea to calm down.

⦁ We again watch as Adrian so artfully rips to shreds the divorce papers Natalia came with for him to sign.  He says, "--Not now or ever will I divorce you as I only love you."  And, Vicente, at the same time is telling off Mario.  He says he'd prefer to lose his clients rather than lose his dignity.  (Ok.  We know where this is leading and it forebodes bad times ahead....)

⦁ Nata warns Adi through gritted teeth that with or without his agreement, this divorce will happen.  (Ex-queezy me, but...) she has plenty of evidence of infidelity with him running away with Veronica, including Mario's seeing the two of them embracing as well as that smoking hot smooch while waiting in line to board the plane the night of his anniversary.   When Nata reminds him of this he attacks her and practically tries forcing her to kiss and embrace him right then and there at the restaurant, but Nata fights back.  It's only her pride keeping her at a distance; he can feel her trembling in his arms; therefore it's obvious she still loves him.  She slaps him hard and breaks away.  The only thing he provokes in her now is disgust, she replies and races off.

⦁ Andrea, meanwhile, gets a boatload of crazy speech and tears from her Tia Constanza.  The woman is depressed and babbling at her in her room at the boarding house that they had an agreement.  Couldn't she still be at least a godparent?  She'll give her back all the goodies from before, even.  Andi says no.  She's acting creepy and frightening her.  If Andi was ready to give up the baby before or get an abortion it was because of what she and los Hadad made her believe.  Conz says she'll accept her part in that but not whatever Hadad did.  She screams for forgiveness....Andi gives in somewhat to Conz to allow her to spoil the kid, just to get her out of there.

⦁ Back at the beauty shop, Chole and Kimberly discuss Chole's upcoming OB-Gyn appointment.  

⦁ Nata arrives back at Chente's only to find that Samia is waiting in the living room there to plan the wedding of the year with Nata, something worthy of los Hadad.  And, first, they must find a dress that hides Andi's big belly.  It would be in very bad taste otherwise. 

⦁ Conz runs into Chole downstairs and fails at being polite.  "--I'm seeing my niece.  I should thank you for taking a load off my shoulders (aka Gustavo).  But when Chole drops the adoption fliers, Connie's attitude turns nasty.  "--You're thinking of adoption?" Why yes, they plan to start a family.  Connie wipes a tear from her eye and says perhaps they eventually can stop treating each other as the enemy and then leaves. 

⦁ Chente returns to his parts shop and informs Omar that Mario and Adrian have started a new parts distributorship with giveaway pricing.  Omi reminds him he mentioned not raising prices.  Chente has his back up and says he will weather the storm, no matter what.    He refuses to allow Adrian and Mario to snatch away what it took a lifetime to build.  (Good luck with that, guy.)

⦁ Meanwhile, across the street, Olga stops in front of Tavo's garage and plans more mischief.  Seems La Vulga has her own method of keeping Simba in line.  She makes certain that Chente is there and present as she taunts Simba.  He of course immediately wants his next payoff.  She grabs his arm and forces it down in back of her, then screams for Chente to stop Simba.  Chente comes running to her aid.  Simba was coming on to her and scaring the heck out of her; she whines.  All she wants is to have her life back, without fear of that night again.  Chente warns Simba off.  He has a chance to tell them all the truth about her lying, but he doesn't.  He acts innocent of all her complaints but agrees not to come near L Vulga again....Chente, falls for it all and Viewerville makes another communal trip to the china bowl.

⦁ Samia runs the show, as usual, and tramples all over the surprised Nata.  But of course, Nata should make up the menu, chef that she is.  And, BTW, Adrian is covering all the expenses, so not to worry.  Of course, whatever Chuchu and Andi want is fine.  They will just improve on it with wads of cash.

⦁ At Conz's casota, Claudio has arrived with suitcase in hand.  His place is with Teresa and since she's staying there with Connie, he will join her.  Tere is speechless.  

⦁ Back in the barrio,  Chente brings Vulga home.  He suggests it's time for her to see a specialist and, yes, to look for another place to live.  She's got to learn to be on her own again.  Where would she go?  She has no job since Chole chucked her out.  (Good point.)  Suddenly Vulga says she knows that the fonda still needs a waitress.  She can work for him!!  (Don't think that's what he had in mind.  However, she whines and wheedles till he says ok, but only as a tryout. 

⦁ That night, Simba gets an unexpected visitor.  Adi rushes into Simba's room and points a gun at his face.  Simba's piece of pizza sags towards the floor.  (Viewerville takes bets on whether it will drop and slop all over the floor before the scene ends.)  Adi warns Simba never to try blackmailing Olga again.  Simba agrees, wholeheartedly!  

⦁ Chente informs Nata that he's hired Vulga to be their new waitress.  Nata doesn't like the idea The girl won't accept directions, especially from Nata.  She is certain that something bad is bound to happen because of it.  And this news is just the cherry on top of a horrid day.  They both have had a hell of a day today.  Chente discusses his news about Mario and Adi's competition, and Nata tells hers about Adrian's tearing up the divorce papers.  The two of them pledge their love for each other.  Nobody can force them apart or bankrupt them:  their wealth is the love they have for each other.   

⦁ Once Simba agrees to leave Vulga alone, Adi says he wants Simba to work for him and he'll give him a great salary.  Doing what?  Well, he wants this barrio to become the most dangerous in the city.  To begin with, he will rob Chente's auto parts store!  All right by Simba!

⦁ Fernanda gets the truth out of Mario while they set the dinner table for Juanga and Valentina's arrival. He's joined up with Elias and Adrian for the sake of revenge.  Adrian should never have gotten out of jail, and Elias' kicking Nata and her family out of their home was dastardly.  They both need to suffer the consequences of their actions!  Yes, he knows that right now people will think the worst of him.  He won't tell Nata or anyone else about this plan of his.  Fer kisses him for being such a decent kind o' guy.

⦁ And, before bed, Nata discusses with Chente her disappointment with Mario.  It's as if he never learned his lesson not to do business with Adrian.  She feels like talking to Adi about this move.  Chente warns her not to do that since that's exactly what Adrian's hoping she will do.  Then he'll have power over her once again.

 Hey, JudyB,  here is hoping you are enjoying  Memorial Day on the  patio. I am sure you will find whatever you might like on the grill. Ice cream sundaes are the desserts for tonight!

1. Natalia decides to leave Connie's but Tere decides to stay and wait out Connie's bad mood explaining to Natalia that Connie needs her because she has nobody else but Delia the maid. She reminds Natalia that  if it were Andrea, Natalia would be doing the same.  Natalie has to agree. 

2. Adrián meets with Samia who is upset that Elías keeps pretending that Omar does not exist. Adrián informs her that her son is living in a rented room near Natalia's.   He sees that as a real sorry situation considering he is a Haddad. Samia says it is all her fault for mistreating Andrea but now she is set to recognize her as  a daughter-in-law because, in the end, she loves her son. Adrián cannot believe what he is hearing. Sami confesses to having spent days balancing her energy so she could turn into an understanding, loving and divine mother-in-law. She knows that the way back to her ChuChú is through Andrea so she is dedicated to planing the perfect wedding for them. Adrián smiles.

 ⦁ Andrea tells everyone as she's ready to leave the hospital that she's going to join Omar.  Yup, she's moving downtown to the barrio boarding house that Omi now is renting from Chole.  Although Papi Adrian tries to find various excuses to make her change her mind and join him back at the new manse, Natalia has responses to counter every single one and the barrio it is.

⦁ Adi drives Nata back to his manse for Andi's things; he is still trying to convince her he was right to suggest one night at the manse.  "--Oh, so you can manipulate her like you did Regina to get all three of us living with you again?  --No.  Just drive.  I'm not in the mood to argue with you."  Ok.  He tries flirting with her again.  She responds NEGatively!

 Hey, JudyB, so happy to hear that you are back home!  It will be quicker trip to the patio  The heat lamps will be out tonight. We have savory and sweet tamales to snack on to celebrate your return!

1. As they are working in the kitchen, JuanGa is informing Natalia that the secret to his sauce is that he uses dried chipotles not canned ones. Natalia  could really tell in the flavor. A call from Adrián interrupts their conversation. As Adrián tells Natalia that he is taking  Andrea to the hospital, Andrea is screaming in pain from the back seat of his car.  Natalia will contact Fernanda so they are seen in emergency the emergency room upon arrival. Natalia is on her way.

2. In her room, Granny Magos is saying her rosary when Olga arrives  trying to get on GrannyMagos' good side by bringing her a vase full of fresh flowers to liven up her bedroom. In their conversation, GrannyMagos says the doctors recommend that she get out and walk. Olga suggests that she take her out walking and they could take care of each other. It would be a good chance for them to smooth things over. GrannyMagos is not convinced. Olga continues saying  if GrannyMagos would allow her to take care of her and give her some company, it would be her way of showing her gratitude for staying at her home. Maybe she would realize that she is not as bad as she thinks. GrannyMagos finally gives in asking for a few minutes to get ready. Olga assures her that she will not be sorry and she has a feeling they will end up being be very good friends.

⦁ Claudio witnesses Olga and Adrian leaving Gustavo and Chole's engagement party together.; it's quite obvious the two know each other... 

⦁ Inside the boarding house kitchen, Natalia scolds Andrea for trying to embarrass her in front of Vicente by bringing her father there to stir the pot.  Andi insists Papi's only intention was to say hello to all.  Nata says don't treat me like a child; "-- I am not and you know it."v Andi insists naively that her father is totally repentant, loves only Nata, and never robbed a centavo from anybody.  "-This is not the time for expressing sorrow and resentments. ! spoke to Veronica and know the level of his betrayal.  I am never going to trust Adrian again."  Andi insists Vero is to blame for everything. "--He left us all starving and in street.  He should be in jail for the rest of his life!"  "--Mom!  He didn't steal anything!  Understand that!"  "--For crying out loud!  We're both women now!  Respect what I'm saying!  Is it my fault your father left me for another woman?  Oh, he says I ignored him and so he went to somebody else after twenty years?  Don't be naive, Andrea!  Your father plans everything to the nth degree.  He's a businessman who always plans for the future in any deal he makes.   He leaves nothing to chance; he knows all the possibilities and doesn't make a move unless.  He knew exactly what he was doing and therefore is totally responsible for the Hell he left us in!!  So, do not get mad at me if I offend him or do not act tolerant around him!  Because it isn't right; it isn't fair for either me or my family!  Respect my position!."

 Quick Recap because I spent the morning doing chores, cleaning the kitty litter box is never fun.

*Am I the only one that just realized the Natalia's one awful child is the child named after her awful father?* Also, are the cops investigating Olga's attack? I've missed episodes and recaps because life is currently hell.

• Natalia walks in in Olga kissing Chente, Olga tries to blame the kiss on Chente but Natalia tells her she saw everything and finally Olga tells the truth- she forced the kiss on poor Chente and OMG why don't they pack her things and send her on her way what is wrong with them why are they so dumb, I wrote this the way my brain processed it last night. 
• Chente thanks Natalia for trusting him and expresses regret that his actions have led to Olga having to live with them, he is also upset that Natalia had to give up her bedroom to Olga and proposes that they start living as a family and invites her to move in to his bedroom.
• Olga is eavesdropping and almost has a stroke.
• Juan Gabriel made a mistake with the repair of a car that could have caused the car to explode, this makes Tavo fire him.
• Juan Gabriel cries, he lost his job and his woman, what is a guy to do? He needs a job that will value him.
