Yo No Creo En Los Hombres, Capitulo 38 Thu 09-03-2015, : No one's going down without a fight
Max confronts Ivana and Dan about the intimidation tactics Jacinto used on the shop lady. Dan says this has nothing to do with the lawsuit and if Max wants to defend MD, he’d better bring proof. Ok, Max heads off to get some. After he leaves, Ivana decides to show her hand a little: she knows that Dan, not MD, stole the dress. Dan, of course, denies everything, but Ivana tells Dan that the dress store clerk told her lawyers what happened.
Josefa claims she didn’t want to hurt Leo (yes, dropping a car on his prone body was a sign of affection, I’m sure.) No, she was just trying to scare him and get him to leave. Isela, horrified, concludes that she did this to blame Orlando, thus getting him out of the way. Josefa denies it, claiming that when the insurance investigators came, she just threw it out there because she was scared. Isela’s the one that’s scared now. She knew her mom was bad, but she didn’t think she was capable of this! She starts to leave, but Jo physically holds her back, hugging her from behind and trying to defend herself. “Things got out of hand…I did it for you. I did it all for you-“ Isela doesn’t buy Jos’s spiel and throws off her embrace. “No you didn’t do it for me! You’ve never done anything for me!” Tearful, she says she’ll never take her sister’s place, will she. Josefa admits that no, she won’t, but she promises that when the Vengeance Plan is over, everything will be different. She’ll be different. Isela tells her she won’t let her hurt Orly anymore. Jo asks if she’d put Orly over her own mother. Isela looks conflicted. (I’m not. The choice is between a man who’s loved, respected and supported you pretty much your whole life and your physically and emotionally abusive, homicidal, maniacal mother (or “mother”). Man, the ties that bind are so strong!)
Dan claims MD asked him to get rid of the dress out of revenge because Gerry dared to ask for MD’s job back after Ivana fired her. That makes little sense, but Ivana points out that even if it did, Dan was dating Ivana at the time. He knew how much it would hurt her and her company and did it anyway. Ok, Dan admits it was a mistake. But all that’s over now and he’s trying to make it up to her. How? By getting the dress clerk to accuse MD so that she gets arrested.
MD’s on the phone with Max explaining that the rental contract is in Dan’s name. Because MD paid him back for the rental in cash, she’s not sure she can prove that she paid for everything. Max offers to help after he takes care of some stuff, but MD doesn’t want to bother him with this.
Honoria comes home and sees her broken altar statues on the table. Fermin comes in, still wearing the same alcohol soaked clothes. Before he can explain, Honoria jumps to the expected conclusion: Fermin got drunk and broke her things. She physically throws him out of the house, screaming that she never wants to see him again. The noise brings neighbors out, including Isela, who explains what happened. Honoria casts an appalled look at Josefa before racing after Fermin.
Ivana comes home to find her aunt supervising the maids in clearing out the nursery. When a horrified Ivana asks what they’re doing, Susana says that now she’ll have room for the wedding gifts that will come rolling in. Ivana goes ballistic, snatching up stuffed animals and screaming for them to get out of the room!
MD tells her mom and Clara that she and Max are dating. Clara’s over the moon!. Espy…yeah, not so much.

I completely missed Max admiring Doris' necklace and wondered how she had figured it out. So glad she was prepared. If Maleny had seen it first. Doris would surely have been accused of theft--or catfight ensued, though Mal would have known right away it was Ari.
So the good guys put a lot of points on the board last night. Ivana made me proud, starting Dan at the bottom AND of Max who was there with MD to make sure Dan couldn't lie about receiving the cash for the rental place. It can only mean the bad guys are going to redouble their efforts.
Did anyone NOT think the wedding gift Dan is going to give Ivana is MD's non-existent baby when he mentioned something MD had that Dan wanted? Unless the lab is also wrong about a pregnancy.
Susana is a real metiche. She had some nerve. Let Ivana grieve, for heaven's sakes. It has only been a few days.
It must have been Wed, then, when Ivana told Dan they would make up for having lost their baby by trying again--lots and lots of times. The look on Dan's face thinking about the prospect was perfect.
So, they were living apart, but now even Ursula thinks they ought to be living under the same roof--how can Grrrsula be able to control him if he's not under her nose--ahh...bet she's going to move in, too.
That was so childish of Dan & Maleny to be pushing and shoving each other while Mamma talked. I got a good laugh out of it--the writers and the actors are definitely telling us these two are a pair of immature twits, and Mamma is no better mother than a fish.
I loved Max telling Dan about him and MD!! Dan's even worse than Ari!! And I just love Ivana> She's really giving it to Dan.
Helle, thanks for a superb recap. Loved every minute of it.

Ari definitely is bucking for a Darwin Award. Maleny is BSC and he shouldn't be anywhere near her.
And she is paranoid about all other women when nobody but Ari could have stolen that necklace.
Ivana needs to wake up to the fact that MD has been as much a victim of Danny-Boy as she's been.
My favorite scenes: Gerry lighting into Dan and Ivana putting Dan in his rightful place at the bottom.
Yuckiest scene: Dan kissing Ivana.
So Alma is inviting ex-girlfriend Mal to the family dinner with MD’s family? That is so low.
Ivana was a total winner yesterday putting Danny boy in his place.
Anita Did anyone NOT think the wedding gift Dan is going to give Ivana is MD's non-existent baby when he mentioned something MD had that Dan wanted? Unless the lab is also wrong about a pregnancy Could be...I was wondering what in the world he was talking about. I'm glad that Max was with her to see the results the lab gave her.
So Isa's conscience was in working order last night. Wonder how long that'll last.

I now have a love/hate relationship with Isela. I hated her 2 days ago, now I love her. She really stood up and showed she does have some integrity after all. And paying Claudio back was the best.
In my opinion, I thought for the first time that Susanna was actually trying to be nice by cleaning out the nursery. Yesterday, she overheard Ivana in the nursery crying over her loss, and I think that Susanna thought she was helping by removing the stuff.
Am I the only one who doesn't think Dan has an actual plan? He seems to be flying by the seat of his pants. He first says he's going to mess with MD over the rental of the space, then he signs the paper because he was stuck in a bad place. I think the same thing will hold true for Ivana's BD present. He has no real plan but hopes to get some inspiration soon.
Hellashelle, you're so funny about your love of Jerry. He definitely is acting like a galan, too bad he doesn't have the looks to go with it. And it was so satisfying when Ivana stated Dan will work from the bottom, and even lined up the managers to help him. But letting Arango know that he won't be needed was just as satisfying to me.
I hope Fermin did't go drinking.
LOVED Doris taunting Maleny with the necklace. That hurt Mal and Ari.
Great, great recap. Just loved it!
3 Wonder women in this episode:
♡ MD finally having a lawyer (Max) go head to toe with Dan. And don't forget those great kisses!!. Didn't they win the best kiss award in Los Premios, even over AB & SR in LQLVMR?
♡ Doris--love that girl--quick wit, realizing the origin of the necklace and taunting Maleny so quickly and appropriately. Doris is very quick on the draw sometimes.
♡ Ivana starting to carry out her revenge plan against Daniel, it's just too bad MD will get caught up in it. But I just loved the look on Dan's face when Ivana said he would start from the bottom of the ladder. And of course he couldn't pout in a board meeting.
Witch of the episode, Urusla. This women is mentally sick.
Thanks Anita - YES!! the good guys really gained some ground yesterday. SO nice to see in a TN before the last 5 seconds! And yeah, Ari needs to find a new job and tell him about Mal from jump street.
Thanks Ann-NYC - Ikr! I also loved how Max waited for the signature then told Dan about him and MD. But part of me would've liked for it to have been a secret longer, just because now Dan's bound to ramp up the plotting and Max and MD could use some drama free time to build their love. Ah well.
Thanks UA - Ivana doesn't want to believe it. She's had too many years of resentment and anger building up inside her and MD is the perfect target. She skinny and pretty, which Ivana's been told her whole life she isn't, but should be. She got everything Ivana wanted (family, boyfriend) without having to do anything. She's poor, which is happily looked down upon in Ivana's circles and she's at Ivana's mercy.
Thanks Niecie - IKR!!! I honestly could kick myself for assuming they'd make Gerry gay. He is Ivana's Prince Charming, no doubt. If not, he's totally mine. I LOVE a good best friends turn to lovers story.
Thanks jilk - Isela is the most conflicted character ever. She doesn't know what she wants or who she is, poor thing. She's simultaneously strong and weak, evil and god, loathsome and likeable. Not an easy task. Good job Fabiola!
Thanks cathyx - I also thought Susana was trying to be nice. Then she made that comment about wedding presents and I was like nvm, she's still being evil. I beg to differ on your take on Jerry. He doesn't have Max's chiseled face, but I like it. And "dem arms doe!" Mmm...Plus, he's an artist. Just thinking of him sketching, shading lightly here, drawing bold, firm lines there...methinks he could be excellent with his hands ;)
Thanks Victoria - I need a tee shirt that says Doris is my homegirl. It was Lola from Sombra, but she disappointed in the end. Doris looks like she'll stay true blue through and through. I dig her fierceness and I love her colors.
I think Isela is an interesting character too, she does bad things but isn't inherently evil, yet she can obviously tell right from wrong so we can't excuse her actions as part of a mental illness. However, growing up with Josefa has certainly damage her.
Ivana's treatment of Daniel is satisfying in many ways but she would be happier if she'd let go of her anger and would get all the Santibañez away from her. What she plans for MD is very unfair.
Daniel is hilarious thinking he can judge MD for moving on with Max. His sense of entitlement over her is dangerous though.

Ivana is amazing in this episode, she is just misguided in her quest to punish MD for something she probably knows subconsciously she is not responsible for. Maybe Gerry can convince her not to go through with it. Gerry on the other hand is a great person hopefully Ivana realizes that and finds happiness with him.
