Mi marido tiene familia Friday 12/22/17 Capítulos 86 & 87: Mothers, Bullies and Forgiveness

DISCLAIMER: If parts of the recap make no sense it is not this recapper's fault. This "combo platter" of 86 & 87 could have been better edited or not edited at all . . . but I will not go down that tired track again. I have recapped what Univision deigned to give us to watch and I have included plenty of my own observations labelled as such in the text.

We pick up the story as Blanca enters her English class. She asks if it is "Basic English". One of the guys in class asks if they are going to have two teachers. All of the students laugh. Blanca scowls. (Observation: I would not want to cross the new and improved Blanca.)

The next thing we know . . .

Robert and Julieta have returned to the classroom with Dave to explain Dave’s situation to the students. They explain David's story and how accidents can happen to anyone, etc. He is just like all of them and likes to do the same things. Diana chimes in on how the principal, she and all of the teachers are there to support him. If there are any problems, their parents will have to be contacted. . . Dave is thrown back in with the sharks as all of the adults think that everything is hunky-dory fine and one brat from the group actually says to David that they didn't want to make him feel bad. (Observation: It was really a great PSA and even though this makes total sense to mature adults, the kids basically pay them lip service nodding and agreeing while the little brats in the group are already planning on how to use this info against Dave. "Parents being contacted" is going to stop them from having some good old bullying fun in the here and now??? . . . don't think so).)

Enamorándome de Ramon; Capítulo 101, Friday December 22, 2017; Hortensia Blackmails Francisco into dropping charges, but Fabiola gets stabbed in jail


(Tonight’s recap was actually written by Alfredo because yesterday was only one episode and he had all this leftover recap (great stuff!) because he thought Thursday was going to be another double episode into one. I’m posting this for him, but adding the screenshots. Thank you Alfredo!)

Julio tells Hortensia that she has everything she needs to take care of herself and storms off. Once alone, Hortensia declares that she is still the head of the family and she will be respected until the end of her days on earth.

The detectives show Francisco the security tape of Dario, but the detectives think there are too many inconsistencies in his statement as he first said it was Ramon, then that he was confused and now he seems to recognize him. Carlos reminds the detective that it’s not his job to judge and the detective nods, but he finds it strange that Francisco also has no idea who the man who attacked him is, especially because said man went only to his apartment, didn’t take anything, and only attacked him. Francisco tells them that it’s their job to figure out his attacker’s motive and the detective tells him not to worry as they will find out what it is. Francisco looks like nervous wreck at this point.

Mi Marido Tiene Familia, Episodes 84-85, 12/21/2017

Univision has brought out the shears and started cutting and combining episodes!!
Episode 84: Homecomings and Departures

Cut Scenes in blue


At Puerto Escondido, Blanca tells Eugenio to get up and asks why he kneels if he knows he can barely move. Eugenio insists that if he was going to ask for her forgiveness, standing would not do; he must kneel. When she asks if he needs something, he replies, “You!” Blanca purrs and they walk away hand-in-hand.

At Julieta’s, Julieta tells Robert that the decision as to whether Dave can be with them has been made. When she asks Robert if he is alright, Robert admits he isn’t; he’s very nervous. He was adopted and never thought life would put him in this situation. Julieta is nervous too; she never imagined this, but together they can handle everything.

Enamorandome de Ramon #100 12.21.17: Paper Planes & Search Warrants

Hortensia plans to institutionalize Andrea because she is no longer safe in her apartment. She then goes to put away the groceries.

Sofia calls Dalia, who chides her for not being present when things need to be paid, but Sofia wants to know about Ramon. Dalia goes to answer when Rosendo walks in and takes the phone away from her. He reminds her that the police are after her and she can’t have contact with the outside world or they will find him. Sofia doesn’t think things should be that way, but Rosendo could care less and storms off.

Ramon calls Juana, who can’t help but worry about the Medina sisters, and then asks him how it went with Cuellar. Ramon tells her about Cuellar’s plan, but Juana doesn’t think it’s a good idea because he should just let Sofia and her father go. Ramon has already accepted though and he explains that they only need to tap his phone, so they can trace Sofia’s location and her father’s since they are likely together. Juana would rather talk to Pedro, but Ramon asks her to leave him be and then asks about Andrea. Juana confesses that she is still missing, and Jorge is distraught. They both agree that Andrea shouldn’t broken up with him in person before hanging up. Dalia then arrives and tells Ramon that Sofia hasn’t come to work for two days and the garage is likely to go under soon. Ramon feels bad, but he suggests she find another job, as hard as it will be, before she’s left with nothing.

Caer en Tentacion #43, 12/20/17: I'll Be Keeping an Eye on You

Who do we know could have said this....

En el pasado
Damian is finishing his lunch with his children and giving them a cock 'n bull story about how he and Raq are going to solve their problems--alone. Mia objects that they should be included as they are a family and have their own problems that need to be addressed. Loudly she says everyone treats her as though she is crazy, but she's not. Dam makes her sit down and stay until they are done so as not to cause a scandal.

Juan's mother, Luisa, shows up at the Alvarado house. She begs Caro not to report Juan to the police. She promises to get Juan psychological help. She tells them that his father beat him. Caro tells her to make sure Juan stays away from Lola or she will go to the police.

Miriam shows up in Dam's office, eager to get him out of the hotel (and unstated, back to her waiting arms and home). He announces he's not going to separate from Raq. Miriam is none to happy to hear that and more when he refuses to discuss his personal affairs with her. She tells him she's not going to let him ruin his life with a fling that's gotten out of hand.

Raq is at the catering office. Andres shows up. He hints that he likes one of the girls working there. Since he can't have Raquel, he must look elsewhere. She tells him to stop sniffing around her office. He comes out and says that whenever he sees her, all desire for anyone else disappears. She's disgusted with him and tells him to leave. He hints about all the stuff that goes on in this place.

Chapter 41: False Confessions and Empty Promises

Raquel and Santiago acknowledged that they could not live without each other and broke the kiss, but perhaps not in time to avoid being seen or heard by Lola, who arrived carrying Benjamín. She excused herself, saying she was going up to her room. Raquel became concerned about her reaction, knowing that the possibility of a relationship with Santiago was not welcome to her own children. She decided to leave, and he asked her not to.
Lola had barely put Benjamín on the bed when Juan called her on the heels of several text messages.
Can't you leave me alone?” she answered.
I want to see you. Where are you? Where are you right now?” he demanded to know.
Are you crazy? I don't want to see you again. You almost just killed Bebo. This is insane.”

Mi marido tiene familia Friday 12/15/17 Capítulo 80: Adoption, Any One?-OR-Deception, Any One?

Well, we are picking up with the confrontation between Tulio and Julieta (Ana is just sort of along for the ride) at the orphanage where he is asking her to clarify her being Dave’s “mother.” Julieta does not feel like she has to explain anything to Tulio. She asks if they want her to explain why they shouldn’t be there. Tulio has to say just one more time that they were not going to adopt “that” boy. Julieta tells him to be quiet and asks the orphanage director to get Dave out of there which he does. Tulio asks what kind of “show” she is putting on. Julieta informs them that if she wanted to she could go to the police and tell them everything Tulio and Ana have done. Don’t they realize that they are criminals? Finally, Ana comes to life to agree with Julieta and to try to persuade Tulio to just leave. Tulio wants to know what is stopping Julieta from telling all. Julieta does not want to hurt the family more than they have already been hurt. Tulio and Ana deserve the worst but the Córcega’s have suffered enough already. Tulio comes back with his usual lame comment about them having suffered, too. He asks if she is going to deny that his mother Imelda made her life impossible. Julieta understands that Ana suffered a lot because she could not have children. For that very reason, she thinks they should be more compassionate. Tulio tells Julieta that she is not going to run their lives or tell them what they can and cannot do. Julieta asks what about hurting an innocent child. How could they even have dared to talk to Dave like they did? He is a child who deserves love. Tulio asks if Julieta is going to be the one to give him that love. Is she going to adopt him? Julieta tells them to go. She turns around and walks towards the orphanage.

Caer en Tentacion #39, 12/14/17: Mistaken Identity -- Bad News for Gabriela, But What About Nacho?

This is Anita filling in. What she has seen, so far is--
Past Time:
Mia gets her dad's hotel room number from the reception desk (a no-no in my book) and heads upstairs. She happens to see Gabriela at the door to Dam's room number and stops to spy. She has enough and takes off.

Meanwhile, Dam is persuasively working on Caro's resistance to him. She still thinks he's "doing" at least two women, other than herself. He tells her he's in love with her and left his wife for her. She says she didn't ask him to do that. For her, family comes first. He wants them to run away together and start a new life together. She gives in to lovemaking when Gaby knocks at the door. Damian tries to shoo her away and fortunately for his hide, Cristian hears the commotion and pops out of his room. Dam says Gaby was looking for him and got the rooms mixed up. He goes back to Caro. She's done with him. She tells him to go back to his wife and family. If he leaves Raq, she'll never see him again (and how many times has she said that....).

Meanwhile, Cristian and Gabriela have a loud discussion on who broke their swinging lifestyle arrangement. Gaby also wants to know who Dam is cheating with. Cris says to stay out of it it's none of her business. Gaby says Raq is her best friend and has a right to know. She sweeps out leaving Cris with his mouth open.

As Catalina grabs Julieta’s plate of food, she thinks Linda is not going to be good for Bruno; they should forbid Bruno from seeing Linda. Julieta has already talked to him, but feels she is going overboard by forbidding Bruno from seeing anyone. She feels like she is becoming like Catalina…what a horror! Catalina wants to talk to Linda and asks if Linda is at her home, but Juls is not sure; though she does offer Catalina Linda’s cell phone number.

Enamorandome de Ramon #88: Kidnapped Wives & Shady Exes

Andrea asks Fabiola if Francisco locked her in the apartment. She struggles to answer, and Andrea goes to get a locksmith, so he can let her inside. Fabiola curses her luck and calls Francisco, who is basking in the overglow of a hanky panky, to tell him what is happening. He instructs her to tell Andrea that she forgot her keys in the car and stall because he is on his way. Francisco curses his luck as well.

Adalgiza asks Benito if he thinks Luisa still loves him. Benito isn’t sure anymore and Adalgiza suggests they give up on being with the one they love. Benito then asks Adalgiza if Finito ever fell for her because then he would have a chance with Luisa. Adalgiza doesn’t know but Finito told her today they couldn’t be friends because he doesn’t want to betray Luisa, even with his thoughts. Benito thinks that is the way back to Luisa’s heart because, if Finito is worried about his thoughts, that means he feels something for her. Adalgiza asks if he plans to break Finito and Luisa up but Benito will do something better: he and Adalgiza will make sure Luisa and Finito end up with the people they are destined to be with.

Mi Marido Tiene Familia #77, 12/12/2017: Unrelenting Fathers, Sisters in Black, and a Call to Motherhood

Thoughts and memories in italics


Marisol walks into Dani’s workshop accompanied by Blanca. After Blanca gives Linda and Dani a big hug, she tells them she missed them so much; Dani and Linda missed her too. Blanca asks them to forgive her for leaving, but she had to do it. When Mari tells her that she is needed in every corner of the house; Blanca replies that she needs them in every corner of her soul. As she told them in the letter, she loves them and they have nothing to do with the situation. Dani assures her that they understand and won’t reproach her for anything; Blanca can count on them. When Blanca tells them how important their support is, Linda wonders how many more days it’ll be before she returns, but Blanca doesn’t know. She assures them she will try to hurry…put everything she is feeling and thinking in order; there are too many things. Blanca asks them to take care of their grandmother, their father, and her granddaughter. When she tells them that she knows she isn’t perfect, but she is striving to be a better woman and a better mother for them, Dani urges her to do it for herself; she has given them everything. Mari adds that Blanca has always supported them and she deserves it. After Blanca tells them she wants to be stronger for each one of them, Dani has something to tell her; her dream was realized. Dani then takes out her engagement ring and puts it on as she tells Blanca that Gabriel proposed to her. Blanca jumps with joy and hugs Dani. Blanca shouts, “What joy! You deserve to be happy, daughter; you deserve to be loved.” As she looks at her three daughters, she tells them that the three of them deserve it; that is what she asks God for the most. Blanca cries as she tells them to strive to have a happy life and to not stop being themselves. They hug as Blanca tells them she loves them.

Mi marido tiene familia Monday 12/11/17 Capítulo 76: The Intransigence of the “Machista Old World Order”

Sadly, tonight I heard The “últimos capítulos” announcement for the first time which was a reminder that we are on capítulo 76 of only 102.

Anyway, on with the story . . .

Robert is at the orphanage. He is talking to his mother on the phone. She is in in tears but overall is fine. She is going to stay with her sisters for while. He misses her and she misses him and his sisters. She needs them to understand her. He will not come to see her because he understands that she needs her space. By the way, Eugenio misses her, too. Blanca sadly laughs and tells Robert that Eugenio is a different matter. She loves Juan Pablo and wants him to tell her daughters she loves them too. Robert reminds her that they all miss her a lot and will all be waiting for her when she is ready to come back. The phone call ends and Robert is looking so sad that Dave comes over to give him a hug.

Bruno talks Linda into coming over to Julieta’s apartment amd gives her the old song and dance act about them not being able to tell anyone that they are novios. Linda is sick of their relationship being kept a secret. He blames it all on Julieta. He promises he will make it public in less than a week without realizing that Julieta had been there listening the whole time. They kiss and Linda tells him that he has one week. With that, Julieta appears and surprises the both by saying they aren’t going to need a week.

Enamorándome de Ramón, #84: No Money for New Lovers and an Impending Divorce

Cut scenes in blue
At Poorfi’s office, Poorfi enters to find Marg there. When she asks how things went, he asks her what she is talking about, so she tells him that Lydia told her he went to the see the doctor. She wonders if it was due to what happened the previous night; and if his nose was broken. He asks her to go into his office; and as she does, he gives Lydia a reproaching “Why did you do that?” look. When Marg asks what the doctor said, Poorfi replies he said that her boyfriend doesn’t hit that hard. When he tells her he is fine, she thinks Antonio is a savage, but Poorfi understands because if he feared losing her, he would do the same, or worse. Marg argues that Antonio knows that what they have is only friendship…and Antonio knows now that neither he nor anyone else will keep her from seeing Poorfi. When she tells him she wants them to continue forever, he responds, “until death do us part.” Marg smiles and agrees; and Poorfi gets pensive. Marg then tells him that the judge agreed to meet with them so they can present the reclassification of Roxana’s charge. Poorfi suggests that they need to prepare the argument that will convince the judge.
At the prison, Roxana tells her cellmate that the judge will review her case. As Roxana smiles, she comments that if everything goes as expected she will get her freedom. When the cellmate notes that her husband got her some good lawyers, Roxana replies that he didn’t do it for her; he did it for Diego. She will never forgive Antonio for taking advantage of her situation to take Diego from her…he will pay for that. The cellmate advises that she wait until he gets her out, then she can go after him; for now she needs to be on her best behavior.
At her office, Sofía calls Lauro Graciano and tells him she wants to see her father. Graciano tells her it won’t be easy since her father is in a maximum security prison and is under strict supervision. When she insists that she is his daughter and they can’t prohibit her from seeing him, Graciano tells her he will see what he can do, but he needs to talk to her father to see if he will accept her visit.

Caer En Tentacion #35, 12/8/17: Gabriela condemns Christian for her sins, and no amount of rice will fix that phone.


After Christian walks into the apartment with his lover, Gabriela argues with him about cheating on her (the nerve). He tells her that she was doing the same, she denies it and then he says “why are you dressed like that (as she buttons up her coat)?” She calls his lover a “zorra” (derogatory name for a woman that sleeps around) and the “zorra” defends her self. Gabriela tells her to shut up and then walks away leaving Christian and the Zorra in the apartment. Christian suspects that Gabriella was waiting for a man, without realizing that Damian the coward is hiding inside. Christian and his lover leave, and Damian comes out of hiding only to drop Gabriela’s cellphone in the water in order to get rid of the recording Gabriela made of Agustin.
Present time:
Santi goes to Alina’s office to pay for her services; she tells him that she is going to defend him for "free". She has a personal conflict against Ruedas and will gladly go against him for free. And besides if Ruedas is defending the Becker family they must be trying to cover up something dirty. She then says “I suspect they may be partially responsible for Carolina’s death."
Cynthia is in Godoy’s apartment serving him a drink. She is glad he stayed. He tells her that he cheated on Laura; Cynthia says that “we all cheat because we can become attracted to people who are not our partner.” Godoy confesses that he is no good because not only did he cheat on Laura but he is also the reason why she limps.

Mi Marido Tiene Familia #75, 12/8/2017: New Beginnings with New Perspectives


Juls tells Blanca that she understands her and is there to support her, but Blanca would like to know where her support was when what she needed was to be told the truth; Juls also kept it from her. Juls explains that if they didn’t tell her, it was to avoid destroying the happiness she was feeling. When Blanca insists that she had a right to know, Juls justifies that it wasn’t her place to tell her—it was Robert’s, Eugenio’s and Ana’s decision and she had to respect their decision. Blanca replies that they always pass over her; she always tells them everything regardless of whether she should or shouldn’t—she just blurts them out. She shares with them all her happiness and pain. When she asks why they didn’t share this with her if it was about her, Jul replies that it was to spare her more pain. Juls assures her that Eugenio and her children love her very much. Juls then extends her hand and Blanca takes it. They go for a walk to continue talking. Blanca is feeling thousands of emotions—anger, frustration, sadness, resentment. She then asks Juls how she would feel if Robert keeps something very important from her, but Juls confides he already has; and it hurt her very much. Blanca points out the same is happening to her; she has spent all her life getting orders from Don Eugenio. He tells her to talk or not talk; he calls her meddlesome, a gossip…he tells her to give her opinion or not to…or not to cry. He even asked her to consider her son dead! She has reached her limit; she doesn’t think it’s fair.

Caer EnTentacion #34, 12/6/17: Release Or An End To Mourning?


We get another eyeballer of Raquel and Santiago finally having a bit of sexual satiation.  Unfortunately, SN’s pillow talk is muffled due to her unique way of mumbling in such a low baritone that much is lost of the conversation.  I do believe that Santi still feels guilty somehow—whether it is the lovemaking or the fact he remained blind to Damian and Carolina’s cheatin’ hearts.  Can’t say.  Raq is a bit negative and too clinical about what just happened between them.  It could be that it has just been a means of release for the two of them, despite their obvious feelings for each other but also that their “period of mourning” is passed, but Santi doesn’t agree.

He cannot forget Caro and what she and Dam did to the both of them, destroying their lives, making fools of them, etc., nor get it out of his head.  Raq does think about her past relationship with Dam also.  There is no relief, perhaps it is just a momentary release for the two of them after all. They agree they love and care for one another.  Oh well….nothing puts a damper on a promising relationship like continuing to bring up one’s past bedtime habitués.

Ana looks upset as Audifaz witnesses the whole scene sadly from the hallway. Imelda will not permit them to ruin her family. He can say what he wants to her but not to her family.

Imelda starts to leave and sees Audifaz in the hallway. She is so glad to see him. She asks him to help her leave. Audifaz tells her that he had no idea what was going on.

Tulio is not moved. Because of his mother, he almost lost the woman he loves. Does she want him to let them be happy after that?

Mi Marido Tiene Familia #70, 11/30/2017: “The Birds and the Bees…Really?” OR “Showdown at Tulio’s”


Previously: At the bakery, Juls tells Robert that she wants both families to know he is her magnet. Both Catita and Hugo Sr. urge her on. As everyone watches, Juls nervously gets on her knees and Robert follows. Juls asks, “Do you want to marry me? I have made up my mind to spend the rest of my life with you…because I love you; and you are that marvelous person that my heart attracted…like a magnet. Robert stands pulling Juls up with him and says, “Opa, my Opa, I want to say that I cannot find the words to appreciate the favor. Of course, I will!” After everyone cheers, he continues, “I don’t doubt it for one moment. I accept to marry you and spend the rest of my life with you because I love you…I love you, I love you…” As they kiss, everyone cheers and claps…with Linda having a sour look and joining in hesitantly. Juls places the ring on his finger and they kiss again with everyone huddling around them and chanting, “Magnet, magnet…”

Later that evening—

Aris leaves the bakery as Diana follows and asks when his parents will be going to the school. Aris thinks it’s enough with the scolding he already received from the school personnel, but Diana insists that it is for his own good; his parents and she need to discuss his future.

Ramon opens the kitchen door and brings the meal to the place as Sofia goes to get a bottle of wine. As Ramon opens it and she serves, Sofia confesses that she’s glad he’s happy.

Mi marido tiene familia Wednesday 11/29/17 Capítulo 69: Hopes for the Future-OR-Applause All Around

Looks like they started a few minutes early eventhough all of the listings showed them ending a few minutes early but not starting a few minutes early. The usual Univision shenanigans . . . Anyway . . .It looks like Gabriel has ended up at the Córcega’s with Daniela for dinner. He willingly calls Blanca “mamá suegra” and is told by Imelda that “Imelda” is just fine by her. He has brought them both gifts and seems to be a hit with both of them. He loves the food so much he applauds.

Outside of the apartment building, Robert and Eugenio confront Tulio about the document he had Imelda sign. Tulio states that it was the correct and legal thing to do. He did not force her to sign it. Robert does not believe him and asks him if he did not take advantage of the fact that she was ill. Tulio doesn’t want to hear about their “victimization”. Eugenio wants to know if their mother knew what she was signing. Eugenio thinks that Tulio fooled her which is neither legal or correct. Tulio gets straight to the point. The document is already signed and he needs his money or they had better get ready to turn over the apartment building and the bakery to him. Robert interrupts saying it is one thing to talk about the money that is owed him and another is blackmail. Tulio tells Robert if he is going to act as the defender of the Córcega’s then he can pay him what is owed to him. As of now, Robert has not deposited not one peso into his account. Isn’t he a successful doctor? Tulio then remembers Robert is renting an apartment in "this" neighborhood in the city. Robert reminds Tulio of the deal they initially had. The Córcega’s would stay quiet about the abduction of Juan Pablo  and Tulio would forget the debt. Is not Tulio a man of his word? Tulio says okay then since Robert deals with problems like a man. Tulio then turns to Eugenio and says it is pretty bad when Robert has to stick up for him. Eugenio lunges for Tulio. Robert pushes him back. Tulio insists that he is only telling the truth. Robert informs Tulio that he will not allow him to threaten his family. He thought that Tulio’s word meant something but he is realizing that he is just a liar. When they pay him the debt, he hopes that he and Ana go straight to the hell they deserve. Tulio finds it interesting that Robert is giving him the conditions of the deal. Robert tells him to stay away from his family or he will pay the consequences. They leave Tulio standing outside of the apartment building.

Enamorandome de Ramon #73 11.29.17: Misplaced Affection & New Illusions

Hortensia overhears Francisco plans with Fabiola but commits the cardinal sin of confronting Francisco, who takes matters into his own hands and sedates her, while an unsuspecting Luisa texts Benito out in the living room. When Hortensia’s asleep, Francisco explains to Luisa that she was complaining about some pain so sedated her. Luisa understands as Hortensia is insufferable and Francisco asks if she will be staying the night. Luisa explains that Julio will take care of Hortensia throughout the night and Francisco offers to stay and wait so he can explain Hortensia’s condition. He is worried about the pain Hortensia complained about and the cold. He then goes to check on her as Luisa prays that Hortensia doesn’t blame her for her woes.

At the casino, Julio loses another roulette swing and leaves the table. He then receives a call from Luisa who tells him the situation with Hortensia and asks if he’s on his way, so Francisco can explain. Julio tells her yes and hangs up.

After the tour of the grounds, Juana is ecstatic about the possibly of owning a vegetable garden (huerta). Andrea admits that she loves the country, even though she grew up in the city, and Juana tells him that he can take off the” for sale” sign as they are buying it. The owner is happy to hear it and Juana hugs Andrea.

Caer En Tentacion #29, 11/28/17: My--OUR--Lyin' Eyes


  We continue as Santiago and Raquel have a heart to heart while the mattress burns.  He can’t deal with any of this.  He’s a fool in everyone’s eyes. He’s got no self-respect left!  She/they destroyed him, his life and now they want to take his child from him!! They destroyed both of them and how can she say they’re better off?  He proclaims his love for Raq and asks what’s the matter with her.  He kisses her.  He says he loves her, and wants to make love to her.  She won’t go further than to share his kisses—with all that’s been done and said and threatened and advised recently.  The kids are watching their every move as well as Screamin’ Mimi de Miriam.  Suddenly there’s a call from the housekeeper that Mia’s been way too long in the shower and Raq races off.  He removes his wedding ring finally and throws it into the flames.  (Yeah, we’re right there with ya, Santi.  Ten points for coming to terms finally!)

  3 Yrs. Earlier:  Augustino and Nacho are waiting for Santi to come have a beer with them.  Nacho says it’s the best way for Auggie to give Santi the necessary truth to open his eyes about Carolina.  Auggie isn’t agreeing.  It’s not their place, but Nacho disagrees.   He’s their friend and needs to know the truth, even if it hurts.  Santi sits down and gives them the grand news that he’s going to be a papa again.  Santi gets up and comes back.   Nacho pushes Auggie to give up the truth as he saw it.  The air and joy goes out of Santi.

Later that night Santi calls Raq and asks if Damian has told her about the argument over at his house earlier.  Nope.  He’s out of town on business and hmmm, Caro’s gone to Valle to help her sister-in-law cope.  Odd, but nothing more is said.  Raq will ask him when he returns.

  At the loveshaque-up, Caro and Dam argue about the kid being Dam’s and how it will be a stab in his eye every time he sees Santi carrying him in his arms.  Well, Caro didn’t mean for this to happen (so she says but Viewerville wonders); this has got to end and she’s told him this numerous times ad infinitum ad nauseam.  They begin to make love but Caro isn’t really into it.  She (we believe) stops poor Dam in the midst of his passion to pack and leave.  She heads off down the highway and he drives after her.

Mi Marido Tiene Familia #68, 11/28/2017: A Strange Proposal, a Makeover, and Return of the Matriarch

Previously: Robert tells the family that Imelda is stable but will need extreme care; how quickly she recovers will depend on that. Everyone is happy as Robert tells them they should go home and get some rest. Eugenio thanks Robert for being with them; and Blanca hugs and thanks him too.

At the restaurant, Dani thinks about Clarissa telling her that her relationship with Gabriel will not last very long…and being called a tomboy/butch. She goes to Gabriel’s office, so he asks what she’s doing there. She tells him her grandma is stable and she is there to make up some hours. Gabi thinks she should be with her family, but Dani also wants to talk to him. She wants him to listen to her without drama or shows or anything else he tends to do when they have serious things to talk about. Gabi denies putting on shows, but then concedes. Dani doesn’t want him to have problems with his family because of her. She spent all her life thinking that all her family’s sadness was because of her. She doesn’t want to create problems for him. Neither of them are alone and she knows that his father and sisters are important to him. Gabriel argues that she is more important. When he admits that there are things spinning around inside his head making noise, Dani comments that she doesn’t want to cause more noise, but he argues that he can resolve them as long as she is with him. She is not, and will never be a problem for him. He went through life not knowing where he was going or who to love. Then he met her; and ever since then, he knows exactly where he is going and who he loves…and it’s her.
