Refugio Para el Amor #48-49 Thu 6/28/12 Rosa Has a Hissy, Everbody Loves Luci Except Rosa and Paz Gets Back What She Lost

Part I

Hospital Mexico City:

Rosa is in the hospital, and Conny is telling her to be calm. Mati comes in and Conny tells her she is now in charge of Rosa (Poor Mati), Conny has to go to work. Conny tells Rosa to have serenity now! No, but to stay calm. Mati tells Conny ( who looks like she'd like to escape already) that she'll call her if anything else happens. As soon as Conny leaves, Rosa is giving Poor Mati the stinkeye and asks her did you tell anyone about our little secret? Mati tells her Pato knows all about the secret of the names of Luci's parents. Mati tells Rosa to stop being mortified. Mati just couldn't hold it in anymore. Rosa is very pithed. She wants to know if Rod and Luci are married? Mati of course doesn't tell her, so Rosa from the corner of her crazed mind says, Luci and Rod can't get married cause they are, wait for it, BROTHER AND SISTER!!! Oh, noes. She tells Mati that Luci is the daughter of Aurora and Max. Mati is shocked. (Poor Mati, I hope she doesn't have an infarto over this). About this point, Max comes in and wants to know what the hey she is talking about. Rosa gives him the death ray. Well, Rosa starts right in, she says you had an affair with Aurora and the result was the baby. He is so mad, he tells Rosa her obsession has made her loca, he never, eva had an affair with Aurora, never touched the woman, had a lot of respect for her and let her rest in peace. Of course, Rosa says Max is a liar, damn him, she knows for a fact it is true, and nothing he says will change her mind. He tells her she is the Amor di mi Vida (Love of my life) and Mi Mujuer (My woman) and she just doesn't beleive him. He grabs her by the arms, but she is hysterical, screaming and ranting and raving with these accusations, while Mati is in the corner, crying and very upset. She also says that Claudio ought to know about Max and Aurora. Mati has finally had enough and leaves. Mati goes outside the door and prays to Dios, ayudi mi nina. (God, help my little one) and please help her, this is a terrible lie. Rosa wants an admission from him, but he says this is a huge lie and all in her mind, with her obsessive jealousy. He also tells her to callate! (Shut up). He keeps insisting this is all a lie, she is still screaming, when the nurse comes in to take her for testing. The nurse is giving Max the stinkeye. She takes Rosa off and Max and Mati are alone. He tells Mati, are you ready for this??? He is worried about Rosa's mental health, ya think??? He thinks this is all Claudio's fault, cause all this started when Claudio got out of la carcel. He asks a good question of Mati, could Luci be this baby???? Mati (Come on now Mati, you could have told him) says, wait for it, Only Dios knows for sure. Oh, please. Now Max wants to know if Rosa was this jealous when she was little. Mati says yes, she was. Of course, this is also Claudio's fault. Speak of the devil, guess who comes in, anyone??? It's Claudio come to see Rosa.

Claudio was just wanting to see how Rosa was doing, and brought her a bouquet of beautiful pink roses. Mati takes those to put them in water. Max gives congrats to Claudio for opening his own office, after getting out of la carcel. Claudio asks Max how Rosa is doing, and Max says better, liar, liar, pants on fire, jus' sayin', and Max invites Claudio to go for coffee, since Rosa isn't there. They go, and Mati is worried that Rosa will have an infarto over this obsession. Claudio and Max are now having coffee and Max wants to know why he is persuing this case against Max. Claudio simply says I'm innocent that's why. He says Max has his family to help him thru everything, and Claudo has nothing, wife is dead, child is dead, and Rosa was the last one to talk to Aurora before she died, and he was all alone in that carcel. Max thinks Claudio is guilty and Claudio tells him,he wants his dignity and prestige back. Claudio says thanks to Max, he lost everything. Rod comes in. Claudio introduces himself to Rod. Claudio is getting ready to leave, and wants to pay the bill, but Max tells him he'll take care of it. Claudio goes. Rod is shocked his Papa Max was having coffee with Claudio, his former best friend, and now convicted fraudster. Rod asks if this is a coincidence? Max says everything is under control,and that Claudio just wanted to see Rosa.

Rod and Max have made it back to Rosa's room. Mati comes out of the bathroom, and is happy to see Rod and asks how Luci is? Rod says she is fine. Max wants to know from Rod's own lips, if he truly married Luci, and Rod tells him, no it was all a joke on you, not really, he tells him yes, Luci is my wife.

Torreslanda, Mexico City:

Max is in his office calling Vicky. He chews her out and wants to know why she wasn't answering her phone? She says her phone died (good one Vicky) and didn't realize it. Then she has a little slip of the tongue and asks how Rosa is. He wants to know who told her. She doesn't answer. He presses. She says "I Heard It Through The Grapevine", not really she heard it at the salon. He thinks they are a bunch of chisme artists. He wants a meet later, she tries to fudge and he tells her she better not stand him up, and then he hangs up on her. (Note to Vicky: Ok, now is the time to dump this idiot, he has NO respect for you, jus' sayin').

Around Mexico City:

Rod and Luci are back in the D.F. They are at Rod's apartment, Rod wants Luci to come in, but she won't. She says they need to not have anymore, en flagrante, until they are married in the church, besides they PROMISED, but Rod agrees. He says if she moves in, he can keep his passion in check, (Note to Hot Bod Rod, how long you think that will last, jus' sayin'), but Luci says nah, can't. He goes in to get a change of clothes and she waits by the open door. Rod comes out and asks Luci where to? She says Violetta's. She is going to stay there until the church wedding. ( I see a pie cart rolling quickly toward them). Rod wants to know if she's sure. She says she is. Rod and Luci get to Vio's and Rod is dropping Luci off there while he is at work, and he gives Luci lots of kisses, and then tells the girls he will be by later to pick up Luci so they can meet with Padre Honesto. He goes and now the girls want all the JUICY DETAILS, and they mean ALL, about the honeymoon. But Luci avoids that by telling them she needs to see Dona Estella to use her phone. Luci goes to see Dona Estella and Marnita is there too. Hugs and congrats and Marinita says she missed Luci. Luci uses the phone and Don Serapio answers and says glad she called cause her Mama Paz is that worried about her. He'll go down and tell her she called, so Paz can call her back. She hangs up, and the little chisme lady-in- waiting Mari wants to know where you been Luci, you got some 'spailin' to do. Luci says she likes married life, I'll bet, she is afraid of Rosa, so she is staying with Vio until the church wedding. Estella is rolling her eyes. Estella tells Luci that Rosa is in the hospital. Luci is wondering why her Roddy didn't tell her. Estella doesn't know what is wrong with Rosa. Luci has gone back to Serena and Vio's and Luci wants to know why Serena is hanging with Vio this time of day. Serena tells Luci she now has a job at Inferno. Luci doesn't like this at all but Vio tells her she is keeping a good eye on Serena after the Luci incident. Luci doesn't want her to give up nursing, but Serena assures her she wouldn't do that, and that this is temporary. Marcial and then Lorenzo come by and Lorenzo is very happy to see Luci. Luci shows Lorenzo her ring and he is very impressed. Luci has gone back to Dona Estella's and her Mama Paz is on the phone. Luci takes the phone and Paz starts asking Luci, where you been, what you been doing? Luci tells her Rod and she went on a little trip and Paz wants to know like yesterday, if Luci has done, the you know what, and poor Luci, who is very truthfull, tells her not to ask. Paz is now upset, she says they both PROMISED, to wait for the Padre to bless this union before they, you know.


Julie and Gala are at Gala's apt and they want to set a spa day, I think. Gala goes off to work. Gala is at work, and had a meeting, and asks her assistant to stay behind, I think her name is Ferny. She tells Ferny she wants to do an article about the Fonda at Inferno, and wants her to be discreet.

Rod has gone to the Torreslanda home and Pato is in the garden and sees him. He is so happy to see Rod. Rod is surprised he is outside, but is very happy to see him. Says he missed Pato. Pato says Rod was enjoying his honeymoon, si. Of course Rod says yes. Pato tells Rod that Rosa is in an emotional state, and is in the hospital for testing. Pato changes the subject to the foundation that Rod is going to run, and Rod doesn't get the hint. You see at this point Pato has seen Frigid the Rigid (using the Frigid method of listening by trying to hide behind a pillar). Rod tells Pato that Luci has him body and soul and Frigid hears everything and just can't beleive it. Now Pato knows she knows all.

Julie is at lunch with her friend Carolla. Carolla asks Julie if Gala is still working on getting that Hot Bod Rod back. Julie tells Carolla that Gala is intent on exposing that servant to the world to show them who she really is. Carolla says she better think long and hard about that, that servant could sue. Julie wants to go on a little vacay, and invites Carolla to go with her. Carolla wants to know, where, when, why? Julie tells her it's a little pleasure investigation adventure. Carolla is like Que??? (What??). Julie says to come with her somewhere and she'll explain.

Hanna and Boris are talking about Rosa. Hanna tells him she thinks it has to do with her heart. Hanna wants to know if he has talked to Lula, he says no, and just at that point Lula walks by. Hanna tries to talk to her, but she isn't saying anything. Lula doesn't want to talk to Hanna. Hanna says you've been my bff since we were kids, and Lula says yeah, till Boris came along. Hanna says she never wanted to hurt Lula. Boris says if Lula can't handle it, so sorry. Hanna tells her bye and Lula sits on the bench and cries. Hanna doesn't get far when she runs into Melissa. Melissa says she is on the way to see Tia Rosa at the hospital and Hanna wants to come with. They go and afterwards Boris sits right down and lights into Lula. He tells Lula that she and Hanna have been bffs foreva and now she is whining and carrying on, and he feels sorry for her. (Note to Boris: Wait till you find out Hanna is so NOT into you, you'll see), he tells her someway to treat her bff, Lula cries.

Aldo is in his cubbyhole, fiddling with the computer to see if he can get that shamrock screen to reappear on his computer. He talks to Vicky by cell and she is mad at him cause she got in trouble with Max cause of the Rosa business. He finally gets his laptop to show that screen and he asks Vicky to hold on.

Melissa calls Claudio, who is at his office,and wants a meet. He says sure any time.

　

　

Het Het:

Paz and Magda are having a little convo and Paz is worried about Luci cause she hasn't called and she wants to go to Don Serapio's to call Hot Bod Rod's cell phone (Note to Paz: They are a little busy, breaking that promise to you, jus' sayin'). There is a knock on the door, and there is Lic Barrerra, and he's got something for Paz. He says its paperwork demanding Don Aquiles produce the deeds to the land and house, and if he doesn't produce said documents he goes to la carcel (the jail). Magda and Paz are shocked. They tell Lic Barrerra that Don A is a huge cheese in this area, has the police in his pocket and they are afraid. Lic Barrera is prepared for that, and says he can go thru the justice system in the D.F. doing an end round around the local justice system. Both women like this idea better, and Lic Barrera shows them the paperwork. Paz is really wanting the deeds for Luci and Lorenzo, because Don A is also cheating them. Lic Barrerra tells her she needs justice and to grab these back from Don A. She now has the power and he doesn't, cause what he did was wrong. Magda and Paz are cleaning, and Paz is still worried she hasn't heard from Luci. Magda reminds her that Luci is now a married lady, but the only thing Paz is really worried about is, can you guess??? That's right, they did the deed without benefit of the Padre (Note to Paz: Your motherly instincts are spot on). Magda says so what if they DID IT, times have changed, but not in Paz's book. Magda basically tells Paz, Rod and Luci are in love and to let it go already. Ariche comes by and tells the ladies that Dona Lucita is at Don A's. Ariche has stayed for lunch, when Don Serapio comes and tells Paz that Luci called. Paz is so happy. Paz wants to go to Don Serapio's and Ariche is coming with, but before they go, Magda gives Ariche a new red banda. He is so happy. After they go Magda says she hopes Vio meets someone like Rod.

　

Copio is on a mission to deliver a note to Dona Lucita (La Gorda). The note looks like a child wrote it, lol. It is an invitation to dine at Don A's. Well, Dona Lucita is over the moon, and kisses Copio on the cheek and says of course she'll be there with bells on.

Meanwhile, Don A is meeting with the Commandante, hoping this will end up at the local level. He is worried about going to la carcel or being sued. The Commandante thinks this will be local, piece of cake. Don A says they have a good case, cause he threw them out on the street.

Dona Lucita is on her way to Don A's when Ariche passes her on the street. He sees her go in to Don A's house. Dona Lucita has arrived at Don A's and he answers her knock and lets her in. She is over the moon. He takes her hand and tells her the house is happy she's there (Oh come on now, we all know this is a bribe). She thinks Don A is enthralled with her. Copio, who is dressed like a maid, bandana round the head, apron over his clothes, is serving the food, it looks like he made it too. Who knew Copio could cook??? Anyway, there are huge platters of food, and Dona Lucita isn't shy about eating, I have to say. She has loaded two plates and is getting sauce on everything, and salsa too. Don A looks like he wants to hurl, he isn't eating, he is watching Dona Luchita eat. She thanks him for inviting her and that his home is like a palace. Don A says he would like to share this palace with a woman of his dreams, Dona Luchita thinks that is her (lol). Dona Luchita has finished everything on her plates lol. Don A still looks like he wants to hurl. Copio now brings her what looks like Picot (Mexican Alkaseltzer) and she tells Don A she sure enjoyed this lovely meal. Don A tells her he is glad she liked it. He tells Copio to bring on the dessert. He brings a cheesecake, that looks yummy and something else. He gives her the whole cheesecake, lol. Now Dona Luchita wants to know what type of woman he is looking for? He is thought bubbling Luci while he tells her sweet, nice, small and someone that can keep things to herself. Well, she tells him she fits that bill. She puts her arms around him and Don A tells her, he is mad at her cause she told Lic Barrerra that she "owns" Paz' house. He doesn't want Lic Barrerra to find this out, or about the money she gave him. She promises she won't say anything, will say it was a misunderstanding and tells him he is very handsome and grabs his lapels and purses her lips, like she is waiting for him to lay the big one on her, lol. He starts coughing,, like he is about to hurl, but he's faking to avoid the kiss. She wants to give him some water, lol.

Part II

Mexico City:

Luci tells her Mama that in fact they did the deed. Paz is upset cause she feels that Rod won't respect Luci now, say what???? Paz is disappointed in both of them.. but Luci tells her that she is staying with Vio until the church wedding. She tells her moms to chill out, everyone knows they got married but Rosa. She tells Paz that Rod is very good to her. Paz passes on the news about Lic Barrerra and getting the house and lands back and about Don A and the possible ending up in la carcel. Luci, bless her heart, says well yeah Don A was bad but la carcel. Ariche is there and wants to talk to Luci, so Paz gives the blessing to Luci and for Lorenzo too, and passes the phone. Ariche says he misses her, wants Rod, but Luci says Rod is at work, and now he wants Marinita. She passes the phone and the little ones say they miss each other.

Gala is still having that meeting with Ferny, and she tells her she wants to do an expose on Inferno and wants lots of CLEAR Pics of the women that work there, ruh roh. Ferny goes to start on that, and Julie and Carolla have come to see Gala. Julie informs Gala about her plan to go with Carolla to Het Het to see this old rich dude (Don A) to see if they had a little somethin' somethin' going on before she came to the D.F. Julie wants some money to recoup her N.Y. apartment, but Gala just wants to investigate Luci from before she got to the D. F., that is her new focus. Of course, while this is being discussed, guess who calls, anyone???, its Frigid the Rigid, bout to runtelldat to Gala. Frigid tells her, guess what, ya wanna know, do ya, do ya, its important. Gala is like ok you witch what you want now???? Frigid tells her she used the Frigid method, jus' sayin' and overheard the convo with Rod and Pato and tells Gala, wait for it, Luci and Rod are planning a wedding. 

Aldo is in his cubbyhole calling Pato for help with that shamrock screen, when Jeronimo comes in. He wants to know why Aldo is always being mysterious. Aldo says not so, just working. He has closed his laptop. Jeronimo wants to know why he kept Vicky out so late, and Aldo tells him he and Vicky are just good friends, like to hang out, no worries. Jeronimo is so not down with that.

Frigid is at the Torrelanda house and the phone is for Pato, and Gennaro gives Pato his earpiece. Max is just calling Pato to tell him that his Mama Rosa is in good hands, and Pato wants to know if she knows about Rod and Luci being married. Max tells him she doesn't know. (Ruh Roh, Frigid heard that convo between Rod and Pato, she is going to get that pie cart rolling jus' sayin).

Rod is at the office, and runs into Oscar, Gabe and Marcos and he tells them he is very happy. He tells them he is living at his apartment and Luci is at Vio's till the church wedding. They are ribbing him bout that. Pato calls and wants to know when he will be at the church with Luci.

Jeronmio comes to Max's office and wants to talk to Max. It's about Vicky. Max has a sick look on his face. Is he about to be found out, Just wait. Jeronimo wants to talk to Max about ALDO and Vicky, Max looks muy (Very) releived. Jeronimo doesn't like Vicky keeping company with Aldo, there's a social difference. Max is pithed. Ruh roh. He will speak to Aldo about this personally.

Rod has come for Luci so they can meet with Padre Honesto. Marcial and Serena are still there and when Rod and Luci have gone, Marcial tells Vio he wants to be a novio to Vio. Vio is very happy, is this like a promise ring type of thing, like pre-engagement? Anyhow, Luci and Rod are on their way to Padre Honesto, and Rod is again promising Luci, noone and nothing will ever seperate them. That piecart is coming, jus' sayin.' Luci is nervous.

Oscar and Max are talking about Rosa. Max tells Oscar she is better off in the hospital and will be much calmer there, but then Claudio showed up and Max tells him he didn't like it. He tells Oscar, Claudio came to visit Rosa but he didn't see her cause she was undergoing tests. Max says he is going to the hospital wants to meet with Aldo tout de suite.




Hospital, D.F.

Rod has just told Max he is married to Luci and Mati is in the room too. Rod is very happy. Max says he wants to be sure that Luci is the love of Rod's life. Rod assures him she is. Max then says that a happy marriage is just an illusion. Rod wants to know if he is talking about his Mama and Papa's marriage? Max tells Rod, Rosa is the love of his life, she is very strong, but needs peace and serenity now! um, no, quiet and when she finds out Rod married Luci there will be hell, I mean she won't be happy. He tells Rod, prepare for your church wedding, don't mention the civil wedding or any wedding at all to your Mama. Mati is giving Max the stinkeye. Bout this time the nurse is bringing Rosa back and she sees her little Roddy and she is very happy to see her hijo (son). She hugs him and cries. Rod is now telling his Mama Rosa, that yes he went looking for Luci and is in love with her. She isn't happy, he gets Hanna and Melissa who have come by, to tell them Mama Rosa doesn't know about his marriage and not to let her know. Rod is leaving and he tells them he is going to work and then being with Luci later, Mama Rosa so not pleased. Hanna is now talking to Rosa, she wants Rosa to see that Rod is very in love with Luci. She tells her Mama that Luci is a very classy lady,and reminds her of the Torreslanda party, when Luci was all dressed up. She helped Pato on his road to recovery, she is very smart and only worked as a maid cause she had to. They all love her, why can't Mama Rosa? Rod adores Luci and she is very beautiful. All Mama Rosa says is, she is worried about Rod and doesn't want to talk about Luci. Hanna tells her Mama she wants her to get better, to get rest so she can come home and that she loves her Mama. She hugs her (This is the first time Mama Rosa has shown any affection for Hanna, she actually let her talk and allowed Hanna to hold her hand and kiss her, amazing). Aldo and Melissa are at the hospital too,and Aldo wants to know why Melissa is defending disadvantaged children. She tells Aldo they have noone else to defend them, and she wants to do that. Hanna comes out and tells them her Mama is asleep. Aldo goes in anyway, leaves her a single rose and a note, I didn't see what it said, so if anyone knows please comment. While Aldo is with her, Hanna and Melissa say that it would be better if Rosa knew the whole marriage thing. Aldo comes out and Boris comes. Boris invites them to his upcoming birthday party, Melissa says she'll come, but Aldo doesn't know if he will. Melissa goes in to see her Tia Rosa. Hanna tells Boris her mama is resting and Boris wants to talk about Lula, but Hanna doesn't. Boris wants to talk to her Papa Max to see if he will allow her to come to his party.

Luci and Hot Bod Rod have taken a little sideways journey and are having some lunch. He wants to take her shopping for new clothes, shoes, whatever she wants, he wants her to be stylish (Ruh Roh, Note to Rod: You can take the girl out of Het Het, but you can't take the Het Het out of the girl). She assures Rod she doesn't need anything and that she has what she needs. Rod says that Melissa will go with her. Luci says she would also like to see Pato. Then she asks Rod, why he didn't tell her that Rosa was in the hospital? He says he just found out himself not long ago.



Het Het:

Don A tells La Lucita he is very nervous about Lic Barrerra. She wants a night of amor (oh, this should be fun) from Don A to hold her tongue. He doesn't want her to say anythink to anyone about Paz's house. Don A and La Lucita have a meeting with Lic Barrerra. He tells Lic Barrerra there was a misunderstanding and here are the orginal deeds for the land and house. La Lucita tells Lic Barrerra that Don A is such a gentleman, and she needed a place to stay and Don A "lent" her the use of the house. Lic Barrerra takes the deeds and goes. La Lucita says memba I get a night of lurrrvvve for this, Ha! (Thanks Vivi).

Paz is back with Magda and Paz is pithed cause Luci and Rod, did, you know. Magda is telling her to let it go. She also tells Magda, that if Rosa causes any trouble for Luci, she will tell the truth, the whole truth,and nothing but the truth. Lic Barrerra drops by Magda and Paz's and he has, are you ready, the orginal deeds to the land and house. He tells them he told Don A he would go to the carcel if he didn't turn them over. He lets the ladies know, if they have any trouble with Don A to give him a ringy dingy in the D.F. They thank him and tell him to thank Claudio for all they have done for them.
