Read Julie’s original recap, then come back here to discuss it.

1. The fight continues. F: Lety has a commitment to me. It’s a work commitment. Fern punches Aldo and he falls. Lety calls “Aldo,” but does she rush toward him like she did when Fern fell? She tells Aldo to leave, the same as Fern. Lety runs away. Aldo tells Fern his faults:
Aldo: I’m not going to manipulate her like you did.
Fern: Since she met you, she’s been cold to me and serious. You’ve turned off her light toward me.
A: No, you turned off the light she gave you. I’m turning her light back on, and it will be for me. For me! You’re in love with her, right?
F: Why do you ask? You just want to use it against me.
A: You are your own worst enemy. Your love is weak. You put your love for yourself first. Your love depends on Lety returning it. So that she makes you feel good, and so that she rescues your company from the bankruptcy you put it into. All this turned into a dishonorable love and in the darkness. False.

(Aldo continues) Couldn’t you see that? Would you be able to defend your love for her? You will fight openly (not “you would” but “you will”).
F: You can’t (have no right to) judge me. You don’t know what I’ve done or what I feel for Lety. And you cannot imagine what I’m going to continue doing for her.

2. Alicia insists that her problem is the same as Marcia’s – Lety took her fiancé. Marcia takes offense at the comparison.

3. Lety tells Tom that Fern and Aldo fought, and that Aldo declared his love. Tom eagerly asks if Lety accepts he declaration. She says she can’t; she still loves Fernando. She says Fern only defended his company, but Aldo was really defending her. Tom again tries to push her into Aldo’s arms.

4. Marcia stops the fight and asks if it was about Lety. Fern claims that it was because Aldo bothers him.

5. Luigi definitively breaks up with Ruli, saying he’s met the man of his dreams. In the Rage Room he thanks Aldo for the bear and agrees to spend their life together, before he lets Irmita tell him that the bear was from Ruli. Irmita tries to talk sense to Luigi, but Lui doesn’t want to hear the truth.

6. Fernando wants to cancel his trip since he now knows Aldo loves Lety. Omar convinces him that won’t work (Omar’s been getting smarter lately), but Fern puts on a pitiful face to make Omar promise to keep Aldo and Lety apart while he’s gone.


7. Aldo apologizes for putting Lety in that position, but he needed to tell her (an apology with a “but” is never an apology, it’s an excuse). Lety wishes she could return his love but she can’t. He’s sure one day she will. She says she gets strength from him. From today on, he’s going to put all his strength into winning her. She tries to say something about that but he won’t let her. Is that a preview of his methods?

8. Aldo and Tom rehash. Aldo asks what Fernando has that drives women crazy. (How much time ya’ got, Aldo?) Tom briefs Aldo on Ali’s fantasy engagement. Aldo tries to talk to Ali, but she knows what’s coming so she won’t let him burst her bubble.

Capitulo 224.
Read Chapel Hill Fiddler’s original recap, then come back here to discuss it.

1. Lety tells Tom that Ariel insisted on a restaurant because he wants to have the upper hand. By refusing the ride with the chauffer, she returns the first volley. Paula asks Ariel’s chauffer for the address of the restaurant, and Fernando intercepts the it before giving it to Paula.

2. Fern and Omar fight for the comfy chair. Fern is sure Ariel asked Lety out to seduce her. But why would she go, after all he’s done to her? Omar says now Lety has three suitors.

3. Ariel tries to impress and charm Lety, but she cuts straight to business. He asks for an advance. She flatly refuses because of the financial crisis. He tries mind games but she doesn’t budge. Meanwhile Fern, in hiding, throws grapes at him. Lety leaves.



4. Aldo tells his dad that he’s the right one for Lety because he gives a better quality love. Fern only wants to please himself, not her. He says (I think I heard this right), “ If he were to genuinely love her, she would be obligated to forgive him, and she hasn’t. My love is so great, if I knew Fern would make her happy I would step aside immediately.”

5. Fern catches Lety leaving. He warns her Ariel just wants to use her. Lety mocks the irony, an executive who wants to seduce her to save his business, and Fern is telling her because she’s so gullible. See the transcript. He says, “No one can love you like I do. I can't get you out of my heart.” He begs her to go away with him. “Why can’t you see that you were born for me? And I for you?”

6. Lety hopes that when he returns, he’ll stop using people. Fern answers, “When I get back, I will find a way to show you how MUCH I love you.”

Spanish Lesson. Outside Bon Terra.

Note, I started with Melinama’s recap and added to make it a nearly precise transcript. Certain parts will be identical because hers provided the skeleton of mine.

L: Are you afraid we're planning against you?
F: No, Lety. The truth is, I can't stand to see you with another man, not Ariel, not Aldo. Understand me, please.
L: We won't talk about Aldo, but why not sit with Ariel and exchange experiences?
F: That idiot's going to hear about it from me for making fun of you!
L: Don't complicate things for us more than they are already.
F: Since we’re being honest, can I tell you the difference between that executive and this one? That one would never fall in love with you.
L: Be quiet!
F: No, you have to listen to me. Don’t you understand that no man could ever, ever fall in love with you as much as I have.
L: Don Fernando, go home. Stay away from me. I’m begging you. I’ve asked you a thousand times. All you’ll do is make more problems.
Screen 38:55. F: More problems, Lety? I am in the middle of a very serious problem. Do you know what it is? I can’t get you out of my heart. I can't forget the incredible times we had together. Do you remember the weekend we escaped to Cuernavaca? (He’s breaking through.) Our night together? Lety, we can rebuild everything that’s broken. XG at our feet. Against/contrary to ourselves.
L: Yes, against ourselves.
(He starts to move to kiss her and she doesn’t resist, but then he gets an idea and pushes his luck.)
F: Let's go. Right now. You have no idea how much I need your kisses. I need the touch of your skin to live again. You and me. Together, far from here. To start anew. Like the first time. revive me, let's begin again. (He leans in to kiss her. She pulls away.)
L: No. Something’s wrong here.
F: What? You and I can get back together. We can forget about Marcia. There’s nothing to get in our way. I need you because you are mine. I’ll make it so you can forget all the pain in the world, and Aldo too. Can't you see? Why is it so hard to see that you were born for me? And I for you?
L: Do you suspect Aldo of fraud against Conceptos or something like that?
F: Of course not, Lety. Why do you say that?
L: That’s what it is. You’re afraid of Aldo like you were once afraid of Tom.
F: No, of course not. But I’m concerned because I don’t know his intentions.
L: Of course. I’m an idiot. Sr Fernando, I wanted to believe you’re sincere. But you’re still playing your old game. You want to seduce me to save your company.
F: No. That’s not true. I’m just asking for a chance. For us to be together today. Only today. To show/demonstrate to you..
L: No. Forget it, Sr Fernando. Go away. Leave me alone.
F: Fine. I will leave you alone. If that’s what you really want. Starting right now, we won’t see each other for a long time. I’ll be traveling, working.
L: I hope when you return you'll have reconsidered. If only you would mature and stop using people for your personal gain.
F: When I get back, I will find a way to show you how MUCH I love you.

Various significant sentences
These are spread over several interchanges between Aldo and his father, Fausto.

Fausto: The fight with Fernando. Did it accomplish what you wanted? Aldo: Yes...
Aldo: Fernando fell into his own trap. He ended up falling in love with Leticia.
Aldo: Fernando’s fortaleza (fortitude, strength of spirit) depends entirely on Lety’s love for him. His love for her is selfish. He only loves her to make himself happy. He never thinks about what is good for her, what will make her happy. Fausto: And you do XG??
37:50. Aldo: (I think) If he were to genuinely love her, she would be obligated to forgive him, and she hasn’t.
Fausto: When one is aware of his weaknesses, it’s easier to manage them and control them.
Aldo: (Loosely) Fernando is a mess and his love is a mess. Fausto: Yes, but Lety still loves him, doesn’t she?
Aldo: My love is so great, if I knew Fern would make her happy, I swear I would step aside immediately.
Aldo: After the way he deceived her, now the more sincere he gets when he’s with her, the more of a liar he will appear in her eyes.
Fausto: (as if remembering his past) Yes, that’s the price one pays when he deceives the one he loves.

Friday: the real Lirio easily fights off all three baddies, and the police, none of whose helmets fit right (they look left, the helmet keeps looking forward – too funny!) are swarming. Gretel finds the briefcase with the cash, but the Lirio politely takes it from her.

******

Outside their house, Muñeca is playing with the kids, and Lorenzo comes running up, grabs both of them and shouts to her to say he’s not home, he’s at work. Brandon comes running up just after, and tells her that the Lirio struck again.

Mau tells Garduño that they ought to go back to the house and look for the hidden money. Dandy figures that the Lirio wouldn’t have left without it. Mau takes this opportunity to diss on Lorenzo – if he’s Garduño’s big deal new right-hand man, then why isn’t he there with them now? Garduño, who must be enjoying being the prettiest girl at the dance, tells Mau he better zip it, or he’s going to be below number two, or four, in fact he’s going to be belowground, got it?

There’s a mighty knocking on the door, and the three don’t seem concerned. Dandy goes to answer and it’s Oliver, alone, but threatening. He calls them Mafiosi and tells them that the police have their eye on them, and they’re all going to end up in jail. All three burst out laughing at him.

At Netty’s the judge is still holding a gun to MariVicky’s throat, while Netty hysterically begs her to just hand over the papers. MV says never, and she’s going to see to it that all the people who abused and defrauded Marianela end up in jail.

Ooooh, says the judge sarcastically, my knees are shaking. You can’t do anything to me, but I can do a lot like you, like send you to the cemetery. I wonder if I will…

When baddies in these shows take their time indulging in verbal flourishes, we know they’re going to be foiled, so it’s no surprise to see the Lirio coming in through Netty’s door. The judge turns and points the gun at him, but of course doesn’t shoot, giving the ladies time to give him a hefty shove from behind. His gun flies into the Lirio’s hand, and now he’s the one at gunpoint.

Brandon tells Muñeca that the Lirio just stole money from the mafiosi and now he’s for sure going to come give it to her for the orphans. Muñeca assures him he won’t, because he knows the house is being watched. Brandon knows the Lirio won’t rest until that hospital is built for the poor little kiddies, and Muñeca sighs dreamily that he’s a man who finishes what he set out to do. Brandon asks her if maybe the Lirio might come by the orphanage to give her the money. Does anybody else thing this is a flamingly stupid question for a policeman to ask?

Muñeca gets it that he wants them to go there now, so she says she’ll go get her purse, and she lies that Lorenzo left for work a few minutes before.

She goes in, and here comes Ilitia up storming up the walkway, furious at Brandon for telling her mother about them.

Lorenzo is lying on the bed, still dressed as the Lirio. Muñeca demands to know why he’s in that garb and, patting the bed, he tells her it’s just for her, so they wouldn’t keep fighting. Did you steal that money? she fires at him. I did, he says, they found me out. I’m the Lirio! No you’re not, she says, slapping him. You don’t deserve that exalted title. You’re just some little worm dressed up like him to get back the money you stole from the agency.

Meantime the real Lirio is handing out justice, telling the judge in stentorian tones to leave and to never bother these people again. Okay, sure, says the judge, but (he tells MV) you’re going to give me those papers whether you want to or not. Eugenio gives him a shove with his delicate, sugary fingers, and out he goes.

Eugenio is star-struck and asks for the Lirio’s autograph, setting off Netty, who tells him not to be so familiar. MV and Netty fill the Lirio in on the backstory about the judge being bought off by Fedra so she could get Mari’s house and now he wants back the papers that could put Fedra in jail.

Ilitia thinks Brandon is jealous and is trying to wreck her marriage. Brandon points out that he didn’t tell her husband, and besides, she can do whatever she wants with her life because as he’s said before, he’s not interested in somebody like her.

Of course not, says Ilitia. I’m “nice”, classy. C’mon, says Brandon, I know Muñeca isn’t your mother.

Muñeca tells Low that she’s going to go get Brandon right now, she’s had it with him. Wait, no, I’m the Lirio, says Low, putting on the ski mask, then adding the leather mask over it.

Don’t! says Muñeca, getting a lustful look in her eye. When you look like that I just can’t think straight. Camila! says Low, pushing her down on the bed while she weakly resists, protesting that she’s mad at him. Shut up and kiss me, she says, pulling off his mask.

Brandon must be thinking that it’s a very big purse.

But after the ads, we see he’s not thinking purses at all, he’s telling Ilitia not to try to fake him out, he’s seen her records at the orphanage. So what? says Ilitia, you don’t have my upbringing, you’re just a “social climber.” A what? he says. She translates for him. (trepador, for those who haven’t seen a gazillion telenovelas.)

He tells her she just can’t accept who she is, that she doesn’t have blue blood running in her veins. She tells him to leave and never come back, but he tells her that he came to talk to her mother who by the way is a real lady, something she’ll never be.

Brandon tells her she’s more like her father, no scruples. He pretends to be a businessman, but he’s just a common thief.

Ilitia huffs off, and here comes Flora with a message from Muñeca who said not to wait, they’ll go to the orphanage tomorrow, because one of the children is running a fever, and they’ve gone to bed (leaving out who “they” are.)

The Lirio tries to give MV the briefcase, but doesn’t count on her x-ray vision, because she says she can’t accept stolen money. Eugenio, trying not be too drooly, says the household is in need, but they just can’t accept it. The Lirio says it’s not for them, it’s for the orphanage but he can’t deliver it due to the house being watched, so he’d like MV to do it.

Netty grabs it and says she’ll be glad to deliver it. The Lirio proclaims that he’s always on the side of truth, justice and the Mexican way, and, chucking MV on the cheek, says he’s always on her side. Off he goes to leap astride his pawing white steed.

Netty is beside herself – He’s in love with you!

Eman comes home to a darkened house. Whew! that was close, he tells himself, not seeing his father sitting on the stairs, so he’s startled when Emil greets him. Emil says he was waiting for him, and what’s this? he takes the ski mask from Eman’s hand. Eman says it’s just some costume thingy from work. Emil thinks he’s acting strange, coming in at all hours, showing up late to work or not showing up at all like today.

Trust me, Eman says. I wouldn’t do anything to destroy the trust you have in me. I’m very proud to be your son, which is something I couldn’t say about my mother. Yes, says, Emil, every day she’s getting worse.

Gesturing with the hand that’s holding the ski mask, Emil says he found Fedra drinking, then she went to her room and didn’t want to talk to anybody. Right, says Eman, discreetly trying to snatch the mask with each gesture. Emil finally hands it to him.

We see Muñeca and Low in bed, basking in a post-Lirio glow. He strokes her arm and tells her it was wonderful that she got rid of the policeman and stayed with him. Muñeca tells him yes, but that doesn’t change the fact that he stole from the agency and dressed up pretending to be the Lirio. He tries to insist he’s the real Lirio, but she scoffs while saying she just can’t help herself when he’s dressed up that way.

She wants to know if he’s the one who took the money from the Mafiosi. Yes, he admits, he took it because he has debts. Yikes – did you see that? He has a huge tattoo of a hawk or eagle on his back! Anyway, he says that the real Lirio beat him out which means (he strokes her arm) she’s about to get a big donation.

Muñeca is mad that he’d get messed up with mafiosi – they could have killed him, or the police might have nabbed him. He strokes her some more and says none of that happened, and he likes dressing up the like Lirio because it drives her crazy. She melts a little bit, then tells him he’s nothing like the real Lirio, who takes money to do good for other people, not for himself. Low says the main thing for him is not to let Vicky send him to jail.

Muñeca thinks a few years in jail would be good for him, and he points out that she could end up there too for accepting stolen money. He kisses her hand and tells her they have to think of their children. Muñeca laments that she loves him so much, and she doesn’t know what to do with him, what to do about their marriage.

Wine in hand, gaze unsteady, Fedra is staring at herself in the mirror. Somebody is knocking on her bedroom door and she tells them she said she wants to be alone. It’s me, Eman! he calls out, and she quick dabs her face to look presentable. She walks to the door as steadily as she can and leans against it, saying The son who abandoned me! I’m not important to you! He pounds some more and says he wants to make sure she’s okay.

Ah, my son, she says opening the door. I’ve been dying to hug you. They hug and she plants some kisses on his neck. He asks her why she’s been locked up like this, drinking, and she tells him it’s because of him, because he doesn’t love her.

How can I? he says, when there are so many lies falling like dominoes? The receipts with Eva’s supposed signature have shown up.

I don’t know what you’re talking about, she says, sitting back down in front of the mirror and taking up her wine glass. The receipts, says Eman, that were used to take Mari’s house and inheritance away from her.

Doris unpacking a suitcase and she tells MV that she hopes that once she gets her house back, she’ll give up on this whole revenge thing. Not a chance, says MV, I won’t be happy until Fedra begs me on her knees for forgiveness, until I see her writhing on the floor like the snake she is.

And if she finds out you’re actually Marianela before that happens? MV swears that won’t happen, and didn’t Doris have a plan? Yes, indeedy she did, and she’s been working on it. She pulls a fat suit out of the closet, gratifying all of us who wondered what one looked like, and leaving MV speechless.

Fedra: You’ve come to bug me, haven’t you? You’re very inconsiderate with your mother, aren’t you?
Eman: Don’t start. We were talking about something very important.
F: The important thing here is this pain I’m feeling. When you, who are the most sacred thing I have in this life, mistreat me and judge me the way you’re doing.
E: How I wish I could have a different relationship with you, but you don’t let me, you’ve never let me.
F: Listen to me! You are completely different from your brother and sisters, and yet you have kicked me to the curb.
E: I adored you. And you – what did you do?
F: (shrugs)
E: And why do you insist on making me believe I’m different from my brother and sisters?
F: Because you’re the same as your father.
E: That’s what you said last night. Who are you talking about, Emiliano? Or Jose Maria Sevilla?

MV and Doris are laughing, horsing around with pieces of the fat suit, and pretty soon we see our old gordita, with Doris putting the last makeup touches on her. MV can’t wait to see herself in the mirror. Doris puts her glasses on her and MV runs to the mirror where she suddenly looks serious when she sees herself.

Fedra is pouring the hard stuff now. Eman takes the glass from her, and begs her to stop drinking and tell him what it is that makes him different from his siblings. His origin?

F: I’m your mother and I know why. Because you’re the only one who has fire in your veins, because you’re brave, because you’re not afraid of anything, you don’t tremble in front of anybody, not even your mother.
E: Because I’m like my father.
F: Yes, my love! Because you have his eyes, his gaze, his character, his courage.
E: The same as Jose Maria Sevilla..
F: I can’t believe after all these years you stubbornly go back to thinking that Chema had something to do with our lives, when you know perfectly well that he killed my parents. I’m talking about Emiliano!

She toasts Emiliano. Emil says he can’t figure out what to do with her, that she’s lied to everybody, to him. It just kills him not being able to believe in her, he feels like his whole life he’s been lied to.

F: If I’ve hurt you I’m sorry.
E: I’m not the one who needs to forgive you. You need to forgive yourself for all the damage you’ve done to your children, and to my papa. You believe that it doesn’t hurt me to know what you’re capable of?
F: You’re condemning me again.
E: No, no NO! I’m begging you to give up this hate, to stop destroying your family.
F: I’m not going to let you say anything more. I won’t let you talk to me as if I was the lowest trash in the world. I’m your mother! Get out, traitor!

If you missed the episode, or I should say this scene, you missed an awesome performance. I had to rewind a lot to get the dialog down, and it was a treat to watch over and over.

Back to our story…

Mari looks in the mirror and says it’s who she used to be, the weak girl who had to flee. Doris tells her she’s not allowed to be sad, she just has to finish her mission. Mari thanks her and says it’s so odd to have a big stomach, and arms like Popeye. Doris says it’s just a practice try-on and the second time it’ll be exactly right. Mari says she doesn’t have a lot of time, and Doris says it takes some work, but she’ll end up looking just like she did before.

Jorge knocks and Mari hides, excited. She bounces out and Jorge is amazed.

In Max’s basement, Emil is telling him that his children are everything to him, and that’s why he stays, to protect them. Max thinks the best way is to throw Fedra out. Emil says that’s what he plans to do at the right moment, but right now he’s waiting for the investigator to get more information on her past. Max is sure that the Curiels who died in the shipwreck were not Fedra’s parents – they’ve seen the report that the Curiels didn’t have any children. Emil says to protect his children, he needs to know who Fedra really is, who he really married.

Max reminds him that he married someone he found wandering on a beach and he’s just now asking who she really is. Emil knows he’s right. Max tells him to leave this woman who’s sucking all the life out of him. Emil says he will when he has the proof of her deception in his hands. It’s all quite difficult for him. She’s their mother! Max tells him he’s sacrificing himself for children that might not even be his.

This is the sort of bald statement that might make a fellow impactado, and indeed that’s what Emil is.

This time it’s Eman sitting on the stairs in the semi-darkness, looking at a photo of his mother and him, and he’s thoughtbubbling out loud that if she was capable of locking up Gretel and traumatizing Axel when he was young, for sure she was capable of lying to him. JM Sevilla – Eman is sure he means something more in her life, in his own life.

Emil hits the roof – how dare Max suggest the kids aren’t his! Max tells him to get real – he knows that Fedra is capable of any sort of low stuff. No way, nothing like that, rants Emil. The children are mine! Max tells him he’s a good-hearted man.. Emil cuts him off and tells him not one more word, don’t turn his life into a nightmare.

Mari is excitedly telling Jorge that this is the way she used to be, and she even entered a beauty contest. Obviously taken aback by her appearance, he says she never told him about that, and when he met her she was already slim, not a ball like that. She asks he’d met her when she looked like that, would he still have been interested? He stutters no, it’s not that, it’s just that as ad people, appearance, you know…

She reminds him that interior beauty is what matters, and would he have fallen in love with her looking like that? Of course! he declares, but she tells him not to lie, and it’s okay, she’s not judging him. Jorge protests more sincerely that it’s a person’s values, their actions, etc., that count in love. He seems to be having trouble actually looking at her, his eyes darting this way and that. She asks if the physical aspect doesn’t count. Sure, it does, he says, don’t they say that love comes from sight? (What about winged cupid being painted blind? Is that just in English?) That’s why you have such a pretty, unforgettable face! Doh, the “pretty face” line! Loser. He quick changes the subject.

Jorge has brought wedding rings for them to wear and they yuck it up, but then he does a secret “whew.”

Eeewww, Bernardo and Nereida are in bed, he kissing on her, she more interested in getting to be the head housekeeper again. He says she lost it for being too ambitious, so get over it. She huffs that if he isn’t going to help her, she’ll just help herself. She knows a big family secret – she heard Fedra says Eman isn’t Emil’s son. Bernardo stops his kissing and stares.

Doris tells Netty and Gladiola to sit still on the couch, she has a big surprise. Jorge comes down the stairs, then it’s Marianela in her Gordita outfit. Netty and Gladiola are ecstatic and throw their arms around her. Just then Brandon, Oliver, and Mano arrive home. Oliver is thrilled to see Mari, Brandon looks confused and Mano smiles ear to ear.

Nereida is getting dressed, and tells Bernardo she’s worked like a donkey at the house for years and of none the money the Ryd Teresas have never has flowed her way, so she’s going to make it happen. Bernardo tells her not to even think she can threaten him or Fedra with her information, and of course she could end up dead. Nereida says the amount she’s thinking of is worth the risk. Just think how Emiliano would react if he knew Eman wasn’t his son!

Never gonna happen, says Bernardo. You might as well buy your cemetery plot now, because if Fedra hears what you’re saying, you won’t last two hours. I know, because I do the dirty work. Nereida smiles that he’s not capable of something like that, and he grabs her by the throat, scaring her.

Doris, Netty and Gladiola confer while Oliver hugs Mari. Netty thinks the disguise has just passed the test, the guys think it’s real, but Gladiola says look at how Brandon looks doubtful. Netty asks him if he doesn’t want to hug Mari, who’s here with her husband Jorge? Sure, he says, he saw the photo and even had it analyzed. Oliver wonders why, and Brandon tells him to ask Mari. He hasn’t heard back, but he just won’t let his Netty be tricked any more.

It’s one thing to try to protect Netty, it’s another to pretend you’ve just come back when you’ve been with us for months. Oliver is bewildered. And Brandon is even more bewildered that nobody else seems surprised. Mari says she had an idea he suspected when he helped her with the papers in prison.

Netty says she already knew, in fact everybody knew. Brandon explains to Oliver that Vicky and Mari are one in the same. Mari takes off her glasses and removes the stuck-on bangs and Oliver is agape.

Same Pillow, Different Dreams Part I: Lorenzo and Muñeca are lying in awake in bed, thoughtbubbling. He thoughtbubbles that he could have spent the night with Kristel and instead he was stuck here with Muñeca. He’s sick of it. Muñeca thoughtbubbles that the fortune teller said some young woman was going to steal him away – who could it be? Is the thinking of her while they make love? She shouldn’t believe the fortune teller.

She asks him what he’s thinking about and he says You.

Same Pillow, Different Dreams Part II: Ilitia is lying on the bed in a cute little nightie when Eman comes in. She notes that he stays out late, comes home and dinks around and finally comes to greet his wife who is waiting for him, all sexy. He says he just wanted to get some clothes from the room.

She tells him his place is there (pointing at the bed). He asks if she’s forgotten that he asked for a divorce and she asks if he’s forgotten that she said no. She tells him to come on to bed. He says he just can’t deceive her. She says she won’t be jealous, that thing with Vicky – forgotten! Not for me, sez he. He’s going to go stay in Mari’s room.

He leaves, and Ilitia thoughtbubbles that she’s always kinda creeped out when he says he’s going to sleep in Mari’s room

Avances: Kristel’s getting married tomorrow, says Mari. Netty again urges Jorge to tell Eman the truth and it looks like he’s going to.

A secretary tells Max that Victoria wants to meet him for lunch so they can talk about something important. Max hopes she intends to tell him the hidden truth about her life.

ScuzzyBoy tries to convince Fer to rent a room with him: If you love me, show me. Come away with me. (Escápate conmigo.)

At the Casa de Modas, Pipino is pleased with the models, especially his stars, the golden-clad Ximena and María D in elegant black. MD and Xi give each other the stinkeye.

María D comes upon a tearful Toni. Toni warns María not to fall in love with the wrong person. She doesn’t want MD to suffer the way she herself is suffering. But MD knows that Max is the right man for her and she’s sure of his love.

Fer and Scuzzy are in her car outside the Casa Sandoval. He has his marching orders from Papa: Get her to a hotel and knock her up! But oddly, his boyish charms aren’t working. He gets frustrated and grabs her. Let go of me, she cries. Cruz, a trained first responder, sees that his Damsel is in Distress. He pulls Scuzzy away from Fer, throws him out of the car and punches him out. What did you do to him, animal? yells the ungrateful FerBeast. She then mounts his back like a small monkey and Cruz twirls the two of them around a few times. Meanwhile, ScuzzBoy scuttles away muttering: No vales la pena, jardinerito. (You’re not worth the trouble, little gardener).

Fer is mad or pretends to be. Once again she threatens to tell her parents and get Cruz fired. Go ahead, he says, and while you’re at it, you can explain that you’re still sneaking around with that human slime.

Back at the office, Max lets María know there’s been a change in plans. His mother needs to talk to him so he’s off to meet her. Max mentions that he suspects that his father is cheating on Victoria. María looks like she just swallowed the last spoon of gruel at the orphan’s table: sooner or later, she reflects guiltily, he’ll find out that Linda is Osvaldo’s floozy.

In the make-up room, Linda is ready to work on Ximena. Don’t you touch me, you bozo, screams Xi, apparently still smoldering from the Nair facial. (Some people can really hold a grudge.) You’re so inept you shouldn’t even be here, she says. Linda smiles smugly: Victoria hired her and only Victoria can fire her.

María D is in a taxi on her way to see St B. She’s convinced that Bernarda is innocent. There has to be some explanation for what Max told her.

Back at Bernie’s, Victoria’s torture continues while the sainted one herself watches with satisfaction. I wasn’t your lover, cries Victoria. You raped me! And Padilla answers stoutly: You trapped me. You were just out to get my money!

I think that Padilla is telling the truth, says St. B. He’s been my tenant for years and he’s an honest man. Now your husband will find out about your past with this man. Caso cerrado!
Enter the smiling María D. She greets Victoria with a kiss. She’s surprised to see her there, she says. Bernie explains that Victoria isn’t making a social call. She came to torment her and to clean her conscience with her lies. Victoria has had enough. She leaves and María runs after her: Yo la acompaño. (I’ll see you out.)

Once they are outside, Victoria says look, kid, we have our differences, but I like you. And I’m telling you this for your own good: stay away from that woman. She’s very clever but she’s totally perverse. She’ll entrap you with her lies:
Me hizo conocer el infierno; por su culpa perdí lo que más amaba.(She made my life hell (literally, she made me acquainted with hell); because of her, I lost what I loved most.)
But she’s going to pay for what she’s done, vows Victoria.

Fausto is watching the scene from the window.

Inside, Bernarda tells Padilla that she backed him in front of Victoria but she knows perfectly well that he stole the watch. She flings it on the table and demands he refund her money. She doesn’t want anything that reminds her of the Sandovals. Padilla reluctantly peels off a few bills and hands them to her.

Osvaldo and his BFF Guillermo are at work, walking and talking as boys will do. Os says he loves Victoria but he cares for Linda too. Just in a different way. You know. A dirty way.
But Gui says he wouldn’t know because he has never truly loved a woman; he just has affairs with them. Os contradicts him:
Tú sí has conocido el verdadero amor.(You have indeed known true love).
He continues: Your love for Leonela Montenegro was the real thing and it was the reason you and I were estranged for so many years. Leonela Montenegro -- The woman I married, Max’s mother.

We leave that conversation just as it is starting to get interesting to go back to Bernie’s. María has come back inside and apologizes for popping in like she did but she was uneasy about what St. B said to Max and what she said to Victoria just now. Bernarda will explain it to her – it’s a long, dreadful story --- but only if María swears not to repeat it to a single soul. Victoria is a bad woman, a liar, a sinner. She has her whole family bamboozled but she’ll pay dearly for what she’s done when the truth comes to light. Stay away from that woman or she and her son will make you suffer more than you imagined possible!

Back to the boys at Televisa:
Gui says: She preferred you, she married you, she gave you a son, she died. Let’s not talk about Leonela any more, okay? Okay. Blood pressures are just beginning to come back to normal when Oscar bursts on the scene, eyes blazing. I need to talk to you, he says to Osvaldo.

María stumbles as she is making her escape from Bernie’s and Fausto catches her. They exchange a long soulful look.

Osvaldo is startled by Oscar’s demand. Is there a problem with Victoria or my son? he asks. Don’t be a hypocrite, says Oscar. He wants to talk privately but Os gives him the brush-off. Finally Oscar loses control. He says loudly enough for people around them to hear: How dare you appear in public with a lover, and a vulgar woman at that, one who’s not fit to shine Victoria’s shoes (no le llega ni a los talones de Victoria, literally, she doesn’t reach Victoria’s heels).

Fausto apologizes to María. He didn’t mean to frighten her. No, no, she says, she’s not afraid of him. She thanks him for helping her. She was just upset over something St B said. Fausto warns her not to believe everything people tell her:
Algunos mienten para perturbarnos el alma y apropiarse de ella.(Some people lie to disturb one’s soul and take possession of it.)

Maybe you’re surprised to hear me use fancy language like that, he continues. It’s because I spent a lot of time reading; books were my refuge when people rejected me.

María is touched. You must have suffered, she tells him, but I can see you’re a good person. Thank you again. And God bless you.

The FerBeast is on the phone with Scuzzy complaining that he left her alone with the gardener. Yes, she’ll tell her parents what Cruz did so he’ll get fired, but Fer is still mad at the Scuzz. He went too far. Still, that damn gardener is gonna pay!

That’s what worries Don Napo when he says to Cruz: You hit the daughter’s boyfriend? What were you thinking? Mira la cara de perro panteonero te traes! (Look at the expression on your face --you look like a graveyard dog!) But the jerk was taking advantage of her, insists Cruz. Still. He and Napo know the real reason he punched out the Scuzz: Jealousy (celos).

At the Televisa cafeteria, Gui tells Os he’s spending too much time in public with That Woman. But how did Oscar know about her? Os is explaining that Oscar has always been in love with Victoria…
… Gui makes a hasty exit (Victoria is my friend, he says) as That Woman is spotted making a beeline to Os’s table.

Victoria and Max meet at the restaurant. His wedding formalware is disguised by an artfully knotted black wool scarf thrown over it. Victoria isn’t here to talk about her past. Here’s what she wants to know:
¿Es cierto que tienes una aventura con María D?(Is it true you’re having an affair with MD?)

He answers:
No, eso no es cierto. Yo amo a MD y nos vamos a casar.(No, that’s not true. I love MD and we’re getting married.)

At the apartment, Nathy and MD are talking about the same thing. MD knows that Victoria is fond of her (me aprecia), but that doesn’t mean she wants her in her family. Who am I? she asks. An orphan who doesn’t even know who her parents were.

Ah the delicious irony. Victoria challenges Max’s choice of María D as his bride because he knows nothing about her family or her past. (Although on second thought, Victoria does have a point. St B is MD’s grandmother. If he knew that, would he still want to marry her?) Max stands firm. He knows her soul is clean and generous. And he knows he loves her. Nothing else matters.

At Televisa, Osvaldo is not pleased by LindaHo’s invasion into his workplace. He tries to keep her tentacles away and tells her to cool it with the ‘mi amor’s’. He expects discretion (hah!) and doesn’t want to jeopardize his family because of her foolishness. She finally gets the message but not before telling him she has a birthday in a few days. She starts to leave and then comes back to tell him one last thing. (At this point, Osvaldo is just about tearing his hair out in frustration and embarrassment. Good.) She says:
No me regales nada para mi cumpleaños; con tu cariño me basta.(Don’t give me a gift for my birthday; your affection is enough for me.)
[At home we are yelling at the tv: Liar Liar Pants on Fire!]

Victoria tells Max that he should marry Ximena because she and Xi’s mother are old friends and everyone always expected them to get married. Really, Victoria? Is that all you got?

She is deaf to Max’s insistence that María is the woman he loves. And that he’s a grown man. If he marries María D, says Vic, don’t count on her support. No problem, says Max. You’ll have my resignation today. From this moment, I no longer work for you.

Nathy is telling María that if Victoria loves Max like a son, she’ll allow him to choose his own happiness. But María isn’t so sure. Victoria is cold and calculating and MD doesn’t know how she’ll react to Max’s announcement.

We at home are all very proud of Max when he tells Vic that nothing is more important than María. But his mother thinks he’s acting like an adolescent. She warns him:
Cuando la pobreza entra por la puerta, el amor sale por la ventana.(When poverty comes in the door, love goes out the window.)
Max says her way of thinking is sad. And for all their money, she and his father don’t seem very happy. Max loves her like a mother. If she loves him like a son, she’s the one who will have to change her opinion.

Victoria is left alone at the table. Badly played, Victoria, badly played!

At the Casa de Modas, Gui has slithered past the reptile barriers and caught up with Ximena in the hallway. He grabs her arm. They do their little I hate you -- I own you – You used me thing . Toni comes upon them. Gui says he’s there to buy a dress. He’d like Ximena to model it.

Max has phoned María and now she joins him in the restaurant. He tells her about his conversation with his mother. She still wants him to marry Ximena but that’s impossible because he doesn’t love her. Did you once love her? asks María. Max looks thoughtful. I thought I loved her but it wasn’t really love. It wasn’t until I met you that I understood what love was. And whether other people like it or not, you and I are going to get married.

Not without your mother’s blessing, says María. I’m not going to marry you if it means separating you from your family. We shouldn’t see each other any more.

Ximena walks the runway in a tight white dress while Gui looks on lasciviously. Xi looks like the “before” actress in a Paxil commercial. Gui tells Toni he’s going to buy the dress even if the woman he’s buying it for isn’t nearly as beautiful as Ximena. When Toni leaves, Xi reproaches him: You want everyone to know I have a lover? He answers: I want to show you you belong to me and you’ll never get rid of me.

Victoria is back in the office. Toni can’t believe what she’s hearing. Max resigned??? Victoria face is stony. Max is obsessed with María Desamparada, she says. If he wants to ruin his life, let him.

Toni is aghast. She tells her friend that she’s pushing Max away with her foolish insistence that he marry Ximena. She has already lost one child. Does she really want to lose another?

We love each other and we’re getting married, says Max. And that’s that.
Nuh uh, says our prissy orphan girl. She won’t let him lose what she has wanted all her life – parents! – in order to marry her. Don’t be ridiculous, says Max (¡no seas necia!). You are the only thing that matters to me. That may be true right now, says María, but later you’ll regret giving up your family. I can’t let you make that sacrifice for me!

Finally we all escape the two stubborn women as we glide along with William in his kayak.

Adolfo's beach-house goon backs off plugging terrified, gagged and tied Zaida between the eyes. At the penthouse, when Dante bullies Adolfo to let him interrogate Zaida about Garnica, Adolf stabs a gun in his face -- until he suddenly notices horrified Bertha entered behind him, stopped in her tracks by the sight.

As Bertha escapes to her room, Dante gets the drop on Adolfo and disarms him, exiting with Adolfo's pistol after promising to put a bullet in his heart one day. Upstairs terrified Bertha phones Alejandra at Mario's for help, but her sister assumes Bertha's making things up and that she had something to do with "Mario's" fall.

Alejandra hangs up on Bertha after ordering her out of their lives; and nearby David thinks that Bertha lured "Mario" to the staircase with the object of having him pushed over the rail. Alejandra wonders what could be keeping Juan Jose, while from his car Dante sets up a smuggling fall guy and orders that Elsa be sprung from jail.

Presently, Juan José appears at Mario's, reporting where he's been to Alejandra's flaring nostrils. Back in Bertha's room, she resorts to phoning and hysterically pleading with Carlos, who looks daggers even at her name on his caller ID. He scoffs that Adolfo would kill Bertha, nastily pointing out she's Adolfo's handy little pet now.

Carlos is spitefully glad she's finding out just what Adolfo's like; and he's not running over there to save her. She doesn't matter to him anymore; and what's more, Carlos jabs rudely that he's dating somebody much better and wiser, before he hangs up abruptly on Bertha's impassioned pleas.

At that moment, Adolfo enters Bertha's bedroom, locking them in, and jeers at Bertha for appealing to her Prince Charming for rescue. Adolfo roughly remonstrates with her, grabbing Bertha's arms -- and then her throat -- while she hyperventilates, grits her teeth and rivets her saucer-wide eyes on him.

She had no cause to worry; but Adolfo has trouble -- and she'd better not interfere! In Mario's office, with Alejandra suspicious and prodding, Juan José explains the situation with Zaida's letter and Elsa's release to her, David and "Mario." They all agree it was a dangerous mission, but Alejandra begrudges him a bit more.

At Bertha's, she's reduced to desperately screaming on bended knee at Adolfo's feet like a child for him to let her go. He points out regrettably that she indeed has no where to go: nobody believes her, nobody wants her. Pulling wailing Bertha to her feet, he earnestly contends she is irrevocably tied to him.

So upset she's almost drooling, Bertha desperately tries to convince Adolfo she wants nothing from him now, except to be released. But Adolfo has two options for her: she can stay with him; but if she decides to leave, she'd better go somewhere he'll never find her. Because if he does find her, he'll murder her.

Oddly regretful, Adolfo rips the phone out of the wall, grabs Bertha's cell and locks the door behind him, leaving Bertha shouting and begging on the floor within. Across town at Juan José's, Alejandra lets loose a jealous rage on Juan José that he still feels for Elsa and risked their love and everything to release Elsa from jail!

Juan José caves, moaning that he just wanted to rub something in Adolfo's face for once. But she's not forgiving him that easily and stalks upstairs in a huff. At Elsa's, Mauricio is just consoling Elsa over her horrible jail experience when Ulises enters and surprises them with news it was Zaida's letter that got her out, not the missing key.

At the internet cafe, Édgar and Valentín read in Garnica's account Adolfo's email to incognito Carmelo making an assignation with him that night at the Sagittarius. Adolfo knows he's not Garnica, but likes his gall and has a proposition. Édgar gets the bright idea to deep-six Carmelo by forwarding this double-crossing info on to Dante, naming Carmelo.

In the dining room at Mario's, David reminds Gabriela not to remark about Márta's murderer when she and Julieta go for the meeting with new sibling Carlos. Back at Elsa's, Ulises elaborates the events surrounding and contents of Zaida's letter to amazed Elsa and Mauricio.

Over at Dante's, he's just reading the damning email and planning Carmelo's demise when Juan José phones to meet at a very public place to exchange the real Zaida letter. In a restaurant, Julieta is hoping to Gabriela she won't slip the upsetting truth, when Carlos appears and plops down between his beautiful, forgiving sisters to learn all about them.

Downtown on a very public flying gangway arched over a cavernous busy commercial center, Juan José exchanges the real Zaida letter; and Dante observes Juan José is the only one ever treated him that way and lived, so there'd better not be a second occasion if Juan José knows what's good for him.

On the patio at Juan José's, Abelardo reveals Asunción's textbooks from the adult education institute to the kids, whereupon Chicles scandalizes them wondering with accompanying hand gesture if adult education means curvy adult teachers, too.

Subdued Zaida arrives at Adolfo's; and Dante phones to threaten if he doesn't get to interrogate her, too, that Adolfo will never see the authentic letter incriminating him. Back on Mario's patio, Abelardo assures Asunción the institute's materials are free and the only aim is his success, such as writing a heartfelt letter to Caramelo one day.

Elsa phones Juan José's, where snippy Alejandra facetiously congratulates her on exiting jail before passing the phone to Juan Jose, who upsets Elsa at first with news of Caramelo's latest plight; but soon she understands the situation and also thanks Juan José for using Zaida's letter.

But when she insists Juan José should turn the letter over to the police, he nastily retorts that neither she nor "that big-mouthed Mauricio" will report anything to the police, who will just censure him. He only used the letter to spring her from jail. She agrees and just wants to visit Caramelo.

Upon hanging up, Alejandra is not convinced by Juan José's assurance that Elsa is happy with "her boyfriend, Mauricio." At the penthouse, a tearful Zaida observes despite Adolfo's denial that it turns out the letter she wrote did indeed serve to spare her life.

Nevertheless, he insists she explain Garnica's death, which she does through a tearful, nightmare-like memory. Garnica cannot be alive; and after considering who could have had access to Garnica's things, they both conclude Édgar and Valentín could be behind the fake emails and blackmail. Adolfo's hiring a hacker to find the source.

Zaida is terrified to be sent to Dante's; and despite her romantic overtures, Adolfo's not in the mood and just insists he can forgive her if she feigns and convinces Dante that Garnica is still alive. Meanwhile Elsa visits Caramelo, who she observes doesn't seem to have missed her much.

But Elsa just wanted to see her anyway and know she's well; and after the current custody explanation from Asunción, sadly but generously agrees it seems to be what's best for Caramelo. At Carmelo's, he puts aside answering Juan José's difficult email requiring proof in favor of agreeing to Adolfo's invitation to meet.

At the internet cafe, the comely technical assistant helps Édgar and Valentín transfer a load of cash from Garnica's account to their "friend's" account in Houston; and she is so blown away by how rich they are that she falls all over herself making dates with them for herself and her friend -- and fails to suspect the rather dicey demeanor of the two thieves.

Unfortunately, the dates will have to wait until the next night -- because that same evening they have something better to do; a "business" appointment. That night, through the lens of someone's video camera, we see a big, black town car cruising in and out again of the Sagittarius parking deck.

Inside his office, frustrated Adolfo waits fruitlessly for "Silverio Rodriguez." Giving up, Adolfo exits to his car -- only to find a slumped Silverio in the back seat, staring forever off into space.

Capitulo 222.
Read Alma’s original recap, then come back here to discuss it.

1. Tom sees Ali crying for her cell phone and he apprehensively loans her his. He says, “Whatever else you need, count on me.” She looks lovingly at his phone.

2. Marcia takes the Dress of Inviability to work and pronounces the incantation, “One Dress to bring her man, and in darkness bind them.” The One Dress to Rule Them All affected Marcia’s mind. Once she obtained her “Precioussss” it became her obsession, it turned her more evil, and she would not part with it under any circumstance. Someone should throw that thing in the fire!

3. Ali takes the One Dress for her wedding to Aldo. See? Already the Precioussss has made her believe delusions too!

4. Tomy (without a necklace) hears “wedding” and storms (with a necklace) into the rage room (Aldo’s office). Tom surprises him with the news that he (Aldo) is engaged to Alicia. Tom feels badly betrayed by his new friend. Aldo says, “Alicia doesn’t interest me at all. I’m in love with Leticia.” Tom couldn’t be happier. He encourages Aldo to declare to Lety. Aldo hustles Lety out for a walk.


5. Marcia finds Fern in her office and she lays the canceled-wedding dress on her desk. He flees the room quickly, as if a dog farted. Alicia, as heartening as Job’s friends, says, “Did you see that? He was here for awhile, but as soon as you arrived, he left.”

6. Ali and Luigi try to convince each other of their delusions that Aldo wants to spend his life with them. Tom tries to gently persuade Ali that she could be mistaken. Finally he spits out, “Aldo loves Lety.”

7. Alicia shoots out like a bullet to tattle to Marcia. Marcia sprints out of the room as fast as a neutrino to break the news to Fernando. (Most people save their schadenfreude for their enemies.) He goes ballistic and blasts out of the room at warp factor 8, saying he has to talk to Lety about travel allowance. When he finds out she left with Aldo, he goes supernova.

8. For the rest of this episode, I’ll condense as much as I can. It’s too packed to summarize. Here are the bare facts.

Aldo tells Lety he loves her. He doesn’t care if she’s still in love with Fern.
She says she loves another. He wants a chance to fight for her love.





Marcia is broken hearted because of how Fernando reacted to her news. Duh!
Marcia whines to her mirror, mirror on the wall, “What has she got that I ain’t got?” (Yeah, I mixed my allusions. So shoot me!)
Fern accuses Aldo of cheating. He came in under the cover of the food project, but his real purpose was to capture Lety’s love.
Aldo shouts that he loves Lety. All Fern can do is shout “I love. I love.”
Fern: Shut up! Aldo: What are you going to do about it? Fern: mucho. Fern walks toward Aldo. Aldo punches him in the face. Aldo: Eh? Did that hurt? Aldo tries to take her away. She refuses. Lety: Look, Señor Fernando..
Fern punches Aldo. He tells him not to invade his (Fern’s) territory, and pulls Lety toward him, but she pulls away. Then Aldo grabs her but she pulls away from him too.
Aldo: the only territory you want to defend is Conceptos. You have no affection.
Fern: Get lost! Leave us alone! Aldo: Us? You and who? Fern: Me and my nov.. .. Lety. Aldo: Let her decide. You lost the right to defend her, long ago. Aldo punches Fern. Fern falls. Lety rushes to him. “Don Fernando..” Then she stops herself. “You should leave. Please.”
Fern: Lety is president and she has a commitment to me!
