Thanks so much Jardinera. I couldn't help but feel unsympathetic to MC's plight as well. I tried to feel bad for her, but then I kept thinking that she's the one who put herself in jail. Unlike the last time, no one framed her.

Octavio meets Maricruz while he is traveling around the lands and catches his foreman trying to take her on. Regardless of her humble origins, he defends her as a gentleman. Immediately, he is trapped by her sympathy and beauty. When Octavio discovers the malice with which Lucia, his sister-in-law, treats Maricruz,.

And this time she also has a small child who needs her. She didn't think of a situation like this when she decided to put herself in jail for murder?

She never thought that in the 30-40 years she'd be inside, something might happen to her daughter? It's just stupid. And I'm sorry writers-- turning jailbait girl into Alvaro's daughter, doesn't make me care any more about her. In my eyes, her only useful purpose would have been getting Alfie thrown in jail for statutory rape. But he's dead, and that storyline went nowhere, so I don't care. This was one of the worst episodes.

Sorry you had to recap it. How stupid can MC be to believe anything that comes out of Carola's mouth?

And she knows the guard is helping Carola and she still eats it all up. Where has the fierce fighter gone? Where are her gut instincts that let her know Carola was robbing her papa? Its as if she has turned back into the world-less girl she was at the beg. Clueless about people's intentions. The only thing we learned in this episode is why we have been subjected to scenes with that young girl. For all of the bad editing with this show, this whole story line of Alvaro and his family could have been cut. Eagle Software Dental Tutorial.

It offers nothing to the story. Why Tav can't just tell Doris to jump in the ocean, I don't know. He is a serial husband. Must always be married, even if I don't love the girl. And don't pilots make decent money?

He can't afford day care of the two kids? Why marry Doris if it isn't to take care of the kids? The only positive thing last night was that I didn't have to sit through Esther crying. Jardinera: Fantastic recap and loved all your little asides; ) MC has been a wilting flower now for awhile. Maybe this lie about Lupita will finally wake her up. She did all of this just thinking of Tav, without one thought for Lupita except Tav would always take care of Lupita. Download Free Software Inkspot Illustration Program Free on this page. If Tav marries Doris, there go the kids.

I hated her eye roll when she turned her back on Tav and the kids. She so doesn't want them around.

I'm glad that Tasha told Juan Jose what Anibal confessed to her, now what will they do with this information? I hope they do something to help MC. I don't know why they are adding Elsa to this storyline either. It's kind of late in the game for this storyline, even if she is Alvaro's daughter. Elsa is like a Doris in waiting. I am slugging this out till it ends. I want to see how they wrap up this hawt mess.

How long will it take India Maria to get to Mexico City on her burro? Love your recap Jardinera.

So hard to not be snarky with the doings going on. Here Here on all your comments. I turned on a few times last night waiting for the Cavs game to start and was so happy to see one of our little Rat Pack gang once again gainfully employed.

They didn't give him much to do, but these writers don't know what to do with any of the characters. I'm lost on the whole Alvaro family saga.

And the purpose for this is??????? Did not pay attention to one word prattling out of Doris mouth in the apt. Tav (Daniel) and those kids were beyond adorable. Bet he wished he could have just gotten on the floor and played pickup trucks instead of spout the usual dribble he is given. Thank you Jardinera---Great recap. So Doris got her knickers in a twist---aren't they always? Tofie---good idea but I'm not buying it.

Carvivlie---Where is the fierce fighter gone? I believe that the fierce fighter will be back. Madelaine said that maybe this lie about Lupita will wake Mari up Yes, it definitely might do that. Where is India Maria going to keep her burro when she gets to the big city? Park him buy the freeway? Doris just makes me sick---Carlos can have her. Gringo, I wonder about the relationship with Alfonzo because Maricruz has been fine with her reputation being sullied in public and continued to go back for more.

She enjoyed watching the clueless oaf(octvio) defend it, reacting like a puppet on a string (hence her quickly assuming he killed Alfonzo)but she now knows she went too far. This is one big pity party she is having and now feels the best way to atone for her behavior is to deny herself for good Oct and Lupita as punishment. Now the reality of her self flagellation (Lupita's illness and no access) has dawned upon her. Wow, thanks Jardinera. It's been a treat serving on the same recapping team with you even though quality of our show abandoned us sometime back.

The rat (was there more than one) looked fat and sassy. Certainly a much more pleasant roommate than Carola. Alvaro's pouty petulant daughter.

The kids were delightful and appeared unmedicated. As for the final episode, I'm still holding out hope for the Rapture or an emergency soccer game. I've stocked up on Tequila just in case. The closer we get to the ending, the worse it gets? Could the writers do it on purpose? So, let me get this straight: back in the glory days of CI (Isla Dorada, that I didn't like, but compared to what we get now, was a masterpiece of excellent television) Doris 'loved' Tav because he was a young, handsome pilot.

BUT, what is his appeal now, when he has two kids in his care, a nephew and the daughter of the woman she despises? It can't be his studness, because I've never seen him showing her any kind of affection. Not much to comment on the rest of the show. Different day, same mess. I'm mentally preparing for my last recap, next week. I think I'll put aside the tequila and celebrate with a bottle of champagne. Whoever said endings are always bitter sweet, obvioulsy hadn't considered CI.
