FRIDAY UPDATE ON TIMELESS LOVE EPISODE 135
Redux: Jero gets the Ecclesiastical Annulment paper, bummer. Chema’s father Benjamin (David Ostrosky) arrives. Jero and Renata visit the Bishop who is a crossover character from ENDA which I never watched. (I tried to read the plot on Wikipedia and it was very confusing! Apparently one crazy dame kills nearly every other cast member.) He understands all to well that perfidious and homicidal family members can really mess up one’s love life.
Bishop CB tells them that the love of his life was tormented by her own sister for her whole life up to her death. “Her death?” ominously queries Jero. “It’s a long story,” continues the Bishop, “Wanna hear it?”
Bishop CB explains that he was in love with Macarena, a person not the dance. But Big Sis Carlota was in love with him. She couldn’t stand that he only loved Macarena and had a daughter with her. (Yes, I was tempted to say he did the Macarena but I controlled myself.) He was both Padre and Papa, jokes Renata. Then we have a flashback to ENDA when Padre CB explains to Paloma that he is her daddy. Renata says she totally gets it because she has a half sister who hates her guts, oh and so does her own mother. Bishop CB gives his condolences. Jero confirms that Nata has been the victim of her mother’s deep hatred. Bishop CB wants to speak to both of them separately. Nata first.
He wants Nata’s honest reassurance that nobody is forcibly persuading her to take back the annulment. (I like this guy.) She assures not. He says he wants to hear her story, take all the time in the world.
The Doc tells Chema’s dad, Coni and Adri that Chema’s tumor is inoperable, nor is there any other treatment they can do to dissolve it. Also, his blackouts (lagunas mentales) will continue to get worse. To wit, his days are numbered. Coni and Adri weep and dad cries “My son!”.
Fina approaches Blanca and says she’s reconsidered. She’ll need Blanca’s help to get out of there and if they work together they can be out of the joint soon. They verbally dance a weird minuet, both threatening the other in case of betrayal, but eventually agree to become evil cohorts when Blanca assures “Finita” they want the same things, to get out of jail and wreak vengeance on the Monterrubios. Fina says she has a plan but won’t reveal it. However very soon she’ll be on the other side of the bars wearing a snappy little number just like Blanca’s.
The doc recommends that Chema’s dad and friends make his last days the best of his life. No stress or anxiety. He doesn’t know how much time Chema has left, a few weeks or maybe 3-4 months. Adri wants to tell Chema the truth but dad begs them not to. The ladies agree to stand by dad’s decision. (Chema wouldn’t remember anyway and they would just have to keep telling him over and over. Nobody wants that.) The doc plays show and tell with Chema’s X-rays.
Gonzo’s doc tells Matias it’s incredible how Gonzo has improved. He says they are hoping that his reflexes and actions indicate that his body and mind are connected. They’ll have to wait to see how the bullet that’s lodged ( alojada) in his head affects him.
Renata has been telling Bishop CB her story. We get flashbacks of Nata and Jero getting married. She says then things changed when they moved to the hacienda; cut to ugly flashbacks of Jero being mean, then a flashback of the harpy in the headband Matilde blaming Nata for Rafa’s suicide. Nata eventually discovered that Jero really hated her. But then Jero got proof that Rafa was murdered by Nata’s mom! Bishop CB advises her that the fight between good and evil exists on earth. Nata cries it’s hard to reconcile that the woman who gave her birth could do such evil. Bishop CB says he can see she has a good soul and she is responsible for her own actions but not the actions of her mother. She knows this but it still hurts.
Renata insists that she is certain Jero is a good person and truly repentant. He was very mad but now she has no doubt of his love. She knows he loves her, just like Mr. Bishop loved...Macarena? Bishop CB softens and explains more about his story, that Carlota pushed Macarena out a window which killed her, but he had enough time to say goodbye to her on her deathbed. Flashback to Macarena’s death scene, Mac asks CB to take care of “her” (Paloma?) forever...flat-line. Renata thanks him for helping her realize she’s not the only one with a truly screwed up family and love life.
Matias flashbacks to his mother’s funeral. Gonzo was there to offer condolences and to tell his son he regrets they have lived apart so many years. But in spite of this they are father and son, both Monterrubios. Blah blah blah. Gonzo thanks God for having a son like Matias. After the flashbacks Matias tells his dad he must recover ( recuperar). He wants Gonzo to know his grandkids. Please don’t go papa, stay with me!
Jero is back in the Bishop’s office and Bishop CB asserts he has no doubt that Renata has been the victim in this story. Damn straight! (Oops, sorry Mr. Obispo) Bishop CB tells Jero he looks forward to hearing his side of the story tomorrow. Renata gives Padre Papa (her nickname for him) one of her famous hugs as they Adios. After they leave Padre Papa tells his big crucifix “You’re awesome!”
Berta helps Regina pack for her discharge. Berta offers to drive but Regi says she’ll take a taxi, that way Berta can stick around for dad. Berta admits it’s hard to see her strong papa in such a state. Regi says she’s sure Gonzo is fighting for his recovery. She tells Berta she hopes one day Berta can love her as much as she loves her papa. They hug and I can’t translate Berta’s expression, although sinister music plays.
Nasty Nesme’s spy approaches Carlos and Laz and asks for a job. He claims the world says the bosses at La Bonita are the best and help everyone. Carlos chuckles and says he’s not the boss and unfortunately they don’t need anyone. Laz seems to know the guy, Leon I think, and says normally they hire extras just for the harvest season and it’s over. Spy Guy says he’ll work for free, just food and lodging because he has nowhere to live. He’ll do anything, he’s an orphan and has nobody in the world, please don’t throw him into the street. Laz and Carlos talk while Leon pleads. Carlos relents at last, and he and Laz figure out a place where Leon can work.
Meanwhile Nasty is sucking on his little flask. Right, that tiny thing would last about 5 minutes, max. He must have a quart of tequila stuck down his pants or something. He croaks “Kari, I need you in my life, in my arms. (glug glug) I know I failed you Kari, just give me just one more chance, we could be happy (glug glug).” Gross!!
Nata tells Jero how much she likes the Bishop as they join the others at the hospital. Matias tells Regina that Gonzo is making great improvements. Small talk small talk. Berta says Regi is supposed to go home and get plenty of rest but Regi insists she’s going to home to wash up but then come right back to the hospital. Jero decides to drive Regi home, then Matias decides to go home for a shower, thus leaving the two sisters alone.
Chema’s dad thanks Coni and Adri for respecting his wishes to keep Chema’s terminal illness from him. They assure him that their whole family loves Chema. (Except Matias that is, tee hee.)
Berta tells Nata that she told Fina she never wants to see her again. Nata says she told Fina the same thing. “How are you gonna do that?” smirks Roberta, “after all she is your TRUE mother.” Nata says no duh, she can’t forget that. Berta gets a few more digs in about Fina then says if only Regina had raised her things might have been different. Maybe she wouldn’t have... “Hated me,” finishes Renata, and she flashes back to Berta accusing Nata of stealing everything and everyone from her. Back to present time Nata says Berta never loved her as a sister. Roberta tells Nata “YOUR mother always stood in our way. Do you think now there could still be a chance for us? I’d love to have a good relationship with you.” Renata stupidly relents, admits she’d love it and gives her sister a big Renata hug. Berta sneers over her shoulder and thought bubbles “My hate for you will never end. All the world loves you except for me, and I’m going to pass myself off as Regina’s daughter so they’ll accept me. Never, ever will you know the truth!” Never say never, I always say.
Tony visit Hons to clarify something about Fina. There is another crime that nobody knows about. Fina killed Comandante Cantu because he found out that Pepa and Fina are the same person. At they same place they also found Pepa’s ex-lover and she killed him too. No, Tony didn’t witness it but Fina admitted it to him. Hons gets right on the phone while Tony continues whining about his guilt, boo hoo. Couldn't the bullfighter go to jail for withholding evidence or something?
Berta grouses insensitively about Chema's tumor then takes off. Nata tells Coni and Adri they have to be strong for Chema. They don’t know if they can pull off the happy face charade but they’ll try to pretend everything is normal.
Marina is dressed up super sexy but hurling in the baño, not so sexy. She recalls Alfonsina’s crappy advice to fight for Jero. She says she can’t do it, she knew she was getting into a relationship with a married man. She can’t do anything to harm Jero, nada. She doesn’t look convinced.
Jero brings Regi home. She asks him what it is he wanted to tell her. He takes a deep breath and admits he’s going to have a child. She’s thrilled that she and Gonzo and going to be abuelos. Uh, no, he continues, I’m not having a child with Renata, but with Marina. It is she who is expecting my child. Doh!
Avances: Fina slaps some feathers out of The Goose, then she appears to have a meltdown. Gonzo opens his eyes. Augi pops back into the hospital and has to force a smile when he hears Nata and Jero are about to remarry.
Dicho of the Day:
Árbol que crece torcido jamás su tronco endereza = That which starts wrong will never be right (Lit. The tree which grows bent will never straighten its trunk)
