In the city of Pátzcuaro lives Nora, a beautiful young woman full of dreams....
The women envy her and the men want her, but she has eyes only for Alfredo, a good-looking young but poor man. Her father, Jacobo, has insisted for as long as she can remember that she must marry a rich and powerful man. Because he isn’t well, Nora hides her romance with Alfredo. After her father dies, her stepmother tries to sell her to Heriberto, the richest man in Pätzcuara, with Alfredo’s help!
In defense of her honor, Nora badly injures Heriberto. But he, afraid of the scandal, does not press charges. Nevertheless, because of the gossip, Nora goes to Morelia to live with her aunt Alejandro..
In Morelia, Nora meets Arturo and falls madly in love with him. Arturo falls in love with her, too, but he is planning to leave the country to take the job he has always dreamed of: to be the pilo of a commercial airline. Arturo promises that he will return to marry her, and Nora happily prepares for her wedding while keeping it a secret from Alejandra.
Arturo meets Paulina and both are surprised to wake up one morning together. They say goodbye because both have urgent commitments elsewhere. When Paulina returns to México, she confesses what happened to her fiancée Juan Carolos. He is understanding and insists on continuing with their plans for marriage, but she has doubts because she realices that she has fallen in love with Arturo.
Nora discovers that she is expecting Arturo’s baby, but before she is able to tell him, Paulina has already called him with the news that she is pregnant. Arturo feels compelled to tell Nora who can’t believe that once more she has been betrayed by the man she loves. She doesn’t tell him that she is pregnant, decides to dedicate herself to raising the child alone.
Broken-hearted and bitter, Nora swears that she will never love again, that she will begin a new life in which she will use her beauty to take advantage of men. She will live from now on only to make money, no matter what it takes, and to find a way, no matter what, to punish Arturo whom she hates with every ounce of her being while, at the same time, being unable to stop loving him because to love him is her sin.

June 14, the debut episode of Amarte es
Mi Pecado
Nora Guzman fires a gun at Don Heriberto in
defense of her honor. Later she calls
the authorities to tell them that she killed a man. The commander interrogates Nora and she tells him the following
story.
Nora was happy and wanted to marry Alfredo,
but he wanted something more. Isaura,
her stepmother, told her that she should pursue someone better than
Alfredo. Jacobo, Nora’s dying father,
makes her promise that she will marry a rich and powerful man. She remembers from her childhood that her
father has long been trying to persuade her to marry a rich and powerful man
and that money is the most important thing.
While she is with Jacobo she receives a call from Alfredo. He tells her that he has to go shortly to
work for Don Heriberto at his hotel. Nora
tells him that yes, they will marry.
Jacobo is now very bad and wants to know who she said she is going to
marry. Nora tells him that she will
marry Alfredo Rangel. Jacobo says that
this is impossible. Alfredo is a loser
and not worthy of Nora. She insists to
her father that she loves him. Jacobo
slaps Nora and tells her to leave. She
comes back to beg his pardon but Isaura tells her that it’s too late. Jacobo has died. Nora cries at the death of
her father. She fells that she has
provoked his death.
Dona Gertrudis, her husband Don Heriberto,
and Alfredo arrive to give their condolences to Nora and Isaura. Isaura tells Heriberto that they need help
and to please give Nora work. Heriberto
agrees. Nora doesn’t want to work for
Heriberto because she knows he has something else in mind. Isaura tells Nora that she will talk with
Heriberto but she in fact makes a deal with him. Heriberto agrees that Alfredo will sing in the restaurant of the
hotel. Alfredo tells Nora that he will
fix things with Don Heriberto. Nora
agrees and goes to talk with Don Heriberto in his office. He bars the door and tries to rape
Nora. She shoots him in defense of his
honors.
The commander tells Nora that he
understands her situation but has to incarcerate her. Gertrudis asks Heriberto why Nora shot him. Heriberto tells the doctor that he has to
talk with the commander. Isaura visits
Nora and wants to know why she shot Heriberto.
Nora says she shot him for the love of Alfredo. Isaura asks why, if Alfredo loves her so
much, he has not come to see her in jail?
Isaura shows the town newspaper to Nora where the story of the shooting
is front page news. The commander tells
Nora that Heriberto didn’t die but that he is in grave condition. Heriberto tells the commander that Nora is
innocent.
Meanwhile, Claudia, a student, tells her
boyfriend Roberto that she dislikes Paulina, another student. Paulina passes, looks at Roberto and is
distracted. Paulina’s classmates pour
coffee on top of her, claiming that it is an accident. Another student, Renata, says that this was no accident. She asks if Paulina is ok. Though they are not from the same group, a
friendship between the two begins.
Renata invites Paulina to have dinner with her later at the hotel that
her father owns.
Paulina’s father, Don Silverio, and her
brother, Rafael, talk about Paulina and how she supports Don Silverio in his
work as an inventor.
At the same time, Arturo, a pilot, is
talking with his friend in the office of the regional air cargo service where
they work. They will be staying in
Morelia for a while. He phones Mexico
to tell his grandfather Don Clemente that he’ll be away for a while. Arturo speaks with Pascuala, a young girl
who lives in the rooming house that Don Clemente runs. Dona Chloe, another resident of the rooming
house, calls Arturo to tell him to come back, that his grandfather is not
feeling well.
Renata introduces Paulina to Diego,
Arturo’s good friend. He tells Paulina
that Arturo had to leave.
Arturo makes his grandfather promise that
he will have some studies done that the doctor had ordered.
Silverio doesn’t want to promise that he
won’t do anything dangerous in his inventions.
Rafa tells Paulina that everything is fine and not to worry about
money. Later her father asks Paulina
when she is going to tell her brother that she is working in the University
cafeteria.
Nora cries in the jail cell.

Don Clemente, Arturo’s grandfather, is in
pain. He asks that no one at the
rooming house tell Arturo. However,
Dona Chloe calls Arturo.
Isaura, stepmother of Nora, tells Nora that
she will stay in jail for the rest of her life. However, Don Heriberto, fearing a scandal, has declared that she
is innocent and that the pistol fired while she was showing her how to use
it. The commander is suspicious,
wondering how Nora could have fired five times by accident. But Gertrudis, wife of Heriberto, supports
his claim that Nora is innocent. Nora
is released.
Renata talks with Paulina and tells her
that she will soon find the love of her life.
Paulina doubts that anyone will be interested in her.
Alfredo asks Nora why she shot
Heriberto. She tells him that she did
it to defend their love. He tells her
that she is stupid, that she should be friendly with Heriberto to secure his
help for Alfredo in establishing a career as a singer. Nora asks Alfredo if he knows what
Heriberto’s intentions were. Alfredo
says “yes” and that all she had to do was be friendly with him. Nora wonders how she could have loved
Alfredo.
Nora:
You betrayed me, you betrayed our love.
Alfredo:
Here only the strong survive.
Nora: I
don’t believe what Isaura said about you.
Alfredo: Do
you know that Isaura sold you to Heriberto for good money.
Nora: No, that’s not true. I don’t ever want to ever see you
again. I hate you.
Arturo arrives at Don Clemente’s.
Renata and Paulina are at the hotel owned
by Renata’s father Julian. Diego says
hello and asks if he can join them.
Renata introduces him to Paulina.
Diego tells them about Arturo’s return to Mexico and that he is a good
worker and responsible person. Later
they ask some questions about Arturo and Diego tells them that Arturo is
single.
Nora confronts Isaura about selling her to
Heriberto. Isaura denies it, saying
that Alfedo is a coward.
Nora: Nothing matters to me now that I’m
responsible for provoking my father’s death.
Isaura: You
killed your father by believing in that imbecile (Alfredo). All that matters in this world is power.
Arturo is with his grandfather, Don
Clemente, who promises to have the medical studies the doctor has recommended.
Paulina makes her father Silverio promise
not to use powders in his experiments.
He asks when she is going to tell her brother Rafa that she is working
at the university cafeteria.
Nora ponders the words of Isaura. She thinks: Is it possible that love of the
kind I dream of doesn’t exist?
Silverio asks Paulina what she will do when
she graduates with her journalism degree.
Has she thought about love? She
laughs and goes off.
Paulina is in her journalism class with
Claudia. At the end of class Claudia
tells Roberto that they have to think of a way to ruin Paulina.
Paulina runs into Roberto and he invites
her to a party.
Isaura confronts Alfredo: What I have to say will take only a
minute. I don’t want to be seen with
you. Let’s make a deal. You don’t mess with me and I won’t mess with
you.
Paulina tells her father about the
party. She tells him that she’s worried
that her brother will want to accompany her.
Silverio says not to worry about that.
Nora is crying while looking at the photo
of her father. She asks: Is it love or money, Papa?
Arturo talks with Diego about love. Arturo is sure that exists and that true
love comes only once.

the party and asks her to come along to meet Arturo, Diego’s friend. They meet Diego but when Arturo, who has
returned to Morelia from Mexico, is late Paulina leaves.
Alfredo tells Gertrudis that Nora offered
herself to Heriberto. He says that he
loved Nora but didn’t realize that she was using him. All that counts with her is money, he says. Gerturdis can’t believe it. Then she asks why Nora fired at her husband
and wonders if it was because Nora demanded money and Heriberto wouldn’t give
it to her.
The entire town is gossiping about Nora.
She goes to the cemetery and begs her father’s pardon, saying that she loved
Alfredo.

exist. She arrives home and tells
Isaura why she didn’t deliver the towels to Gertrudis. Isaura tells her she could have done so –
she is a capable person, capable of killing her father!

her house. In the street she talks
about her life. He is jealous of her
many friends and riches but finally kisses her and she leaves.
Nora talks with her stepmother, Isaura, and
says that she is tired of all of the humiliations she has suffered. She says that she is innocent. Her only sin was to defend her love for
Alfredo. Isaura says her mistake was to
love the wrong man.
Meanwhile, Casilda arrives home after
attending mass and says that she enjoys only mass and her language videos. She sees the newspaper with Nora’s picture
and shows it to her godmother Alejandra.

Casilda and tells her that Leonardo will never pay attention to a girl like
her. –Rafa asks forgiveness from
Paulina and his dad for being so one-sided and stubborn. –Arturo and Nora meet at a beautiful area
just outside of Morelia. First, she

similar feelings of loneliness in common. ---Isaura looks at the car she’s
gotten out of Heriberto. Heriberto
tells Alfredo that he gave money to Isaura in order to buy a car for
herself. ---Arturo and Nora go to a
cantina. They argue over which song to
request from the band. She says that “Si Nos Dejan” is her favorite. They flip for it, and he has the mariachi
band play his favorite (“Amor Eterna”) as a serenade for her. They must finally leave each other and he
kisses her. She goes off, crying tears
of emotion. –Don Clemente, Arturo’s grandfather, suffers a heart attack. --That evening Nora gets ready for bed;
outside she hears a beautiful song being played. She realizes it’s a serenade of her favorite, “Si Nos Dejan and
looks out the window. In front of the
mariachis is Arturo, standing and smiling at her as the band serenades her with
her favorite song.
A couple of minutes later Alejandra angrily runs into Nora’s room and asks her
if she’s been seeing this man although she’s been warned not to. Nora admits to her aunt that she has. Alejandra slaps her across the face.

Casilda comes in with a message from Arturo saying that he’s outside and
wants to speak with Alejandra about Nora.
---Claudia and Roberto argue.

when she sees that Rafa has come there.
She pretends also that she doesn’t see Rafa standing nearby watching the
two of them. –Arturo and Alejandra
discuss his feelings for Nora. She
considers him a gold-digger and asks how much money it will take to get him to
leave Nora alone for good. He tells her
that he intends to continue seeing Nora and if she accepts then no one and
nothing will deter him. He leaves. –Casilda convinces her that he’s interested
but that Nora really doesn’t feel the same. Alejandra reconsiders and allows
Nora to stay. Nora thanks Casilda for
saving her from being thrown out of the house that night. She goes to bed and thinks about her day
with Arturo. –Afterward, Diego tells
Arturo that Nora’s only a whim and to forget her. At that moment, Arturo receives a call from his grandfather’s

She tells them she’s decided not to go to the graduation
festivities. Claudia goes to their
professor and makes her believe they are all upset Paulina has decided not to
come. She persuades the teacher to
convince Paulina that she has to come.
–Casilda is watching her erotic video tapes and must quickly stop when
Nora comes to her room worried about Alejandra getting mad at her all the
time. Casilda answers she’s not to pay
attention to her. It’ll pass and just
think of her as the sister she never had.
–Alejandra is in her bedroom reading the old letters she was going to
send to Jacobo Guzman, Nora’s dad, but had locked away instead. She laments, saying to him that she always
had loved him and yet at the same time always hated him for having chosen
Nora’s mother over him. –At Julian
Quiroga’s hotel Renata, her dad, and his assistant are chatting over business
when his ex-wife, Cathy knocks and enters the office. Renata is overjoyed to see her there, all the way from her home
up in the state of Texas in the U.S.
Cathy says she’s come to Morelia on business. ---Arturo is disappointed when he receives a letter of rejection
from the major airline he’d thought to apply to for work as a pilot. Apparently, Don Clemente had gone ahead and
sent the application in without his knowing.
Diego calls and asks if he’s gotten anything from the airline and Arturo
tells him he’s just received a rejection from them. Diego mentions that he’s been accepted, but doesn’t know what to
do because he father’s not going to approve either way. –Paulina and Roberto talk and he asks to be
forgiven over a nasty joke played on her by Claudia at a party Paulina and he’d
gone to together. Paulina rejects his
apology.
Diego and Arturo
are talking together in a restaurant.
Diego tells him that his dad doesn’t want him to work as a pilot. Arturo asks why he doesn’t just ignore his
father and do what he wants with his own life.
–Alejandra goes to Jacobo’s grave.
Isaura happens to run into her there, wanting to make her piece with him
there. She offers to give Alejandra a
lift back to the house in her car.

be his for the taking that very day.
–Nora and Leonardo are talking upstairs while one of Pilar’s fashion
shows is taking place. He asks her if
she’s involved with the man he saw crawling down from her balcony window the
other day. If so, he can count on her
for his silence and friendship. At that
moment, Nora is frightened and shocked at seeing Doña Gertrudis downstairs at
the fashion show. –Alejandra asks
Isaura if she knows what happened to her china cat that was out on a table in
the living room the other day. Isaura
denies having seen it. ---At the
boarding house, Diana sees Arturo and begins to flirt with him. She asks him to take her dancing. – Later the professor persuades her to go to
the graduation and tells her that Juan Carlos de Orellana will be the speaker
at her graduation. Paulina sees her

excited to go to the festivities after all. –Isaura gets permission from Alejandra
to visit Nora and take her for a little drive around the city. –Arturo agrees to take Diana dancing and
they go to a club. –Outside of Morelia

goes looking for help. –At the club a greasy thug notices Diana as they
enter. While there Diana tells Arturo
she’s interested in a relationship with him, but he explains he’s met a girl he

Arturo defends Diana from the
thug. They fight and Arturo gets the
better of the guy. He gets bounced from
the club. –Nora is sleeping inside Isaura’s broken down car while waiting for
her to return. All of a sudden
Heriberto opens her car door and starts to kissing and trying to rape her. While he’s forcing her to comply she’s
yelling and screaming in desperation.
At the last moment a car stops and out jumps Leonardo. Heriberto and he lock eyes as Heriberto runs
away. –At the club a photographer takes
a quick snapshot of Diana with Arturo and she’s happy to have been rescued. She expresses her thanks and says she’s
interested in Arturo; he asks her to understand that although he has complied
with his promise to take her dancing, he wants to be honest and she should not
be confused by all this. He is very
much interested in a girl in Morelia.
---The thug sneaks into the parking garage and cuts the lines to the brakes
of Arturo’s car. –Isaura comes back to
her car and looks for Nora thinking that about now she should be with
Heriberto. ---Leonardo takes Nora to
his apartment and tries to calm her down.
She thanks Leonardo and cleans herself up. She says that because of his help that that pig, Heriberto,
didn’t manage to compromise her. He
promises not to say anything about this to Alejandra for her. –Isaura is alone in her house but then
Heriberto comes to tell her what happened with Nora and that some man came by
to stop him. –Nora keeps asking
Leonardo to say nothing to anyone about what has happened. They laugh about the fact that Alejandra has
erased him from her list of candidates because he has no money; she adds that
he’s a decent man but not a good prospect for marriage.
Heriberto tells
Isaura that Nora escaped but that he still wants her and Isaura insists that
she complied with her end of the bargain; it’s not her fault that somebody
showed up to stop things. She figures
it was Arturo who’d come by, anxious himself to woo her and following her
around. After all, he’d given her a
serenade. –Arturo and Diana leave the club in his car and suddenly they crash.
–Leonardo takes Nora back home and Casilda sees them through the window. She runs to tell Nora to hurry before
Alejandra realizes she’s home. Nora
explains what has happened and asks Casilda not to say anything to her aunt
about it. She agrees. –Arturo is at the hospital and explains all about the
accident to the doctor. --Isaura is worrying about where Nora is right
now. Right then the phone rings and
Nora it is on the other end. She tells
Isaura everything that happened and asks that she come over to see her the next
day. Isaura pretends that she was
worried when Nora was missing from the car.
----Alejandra continues to give Nora lessons about preparing herself for
finding a proper husband and tells her she’s anxious to introduce her into her
circle of friends, Morelia’s high society.
---Roberto asks Pauline to be his date at the graduation dance and she
balks at first. He insists that what
had happened before wasn’t really something he’d approved of, and that he’d
broken off with Claudia because of it.
Paulina tells Renata this and she suggests she agree to give Roberto a
chance and to go with him. Claudia sees
Roberto and asks to start dating again.
He refuses. Then Paulina shows
up and says she’ll accept his offer to take her to the graduation
festivities.
Nora asks Isaura
to take her to her father’s grave where she tells him she remembers her oath to
him but that Arturo is a very good man. –Don Clemente tells Diego he’s not
happy about the reputation of this woman, Nora, his grandson’s seeing. He asks him then to think of something to
say to Nora to keep her from seeing Arturo again. ---Pilar carries her dresses
over to Alejandra’s so that Nora can try them on one last time. While there Alejandra asks her manservant to
help show Nora how to dance. A bit
later she mentions to Pilar that because of the accruing interest on the money
she lent Pilar, it would make sense for the two of them to become business
partners and then the debt could be settled. –Diego arrives in Morelia. Arturo
calls him from the hospital to ask Diego to find Nora and explain what has
happened so that she doesn’t worry about him. He tells Diego he’s asking
because Diego is his best friend and he doesn’t trust anyone else to do this
favor.
Diego chats with
Julian Quiroga and then tells him what Arturo’s grandfather has asked him to do
and why. Julian says he should probably
go ahead if he feels it’s justified. A
bit later in the hotel, Nora arrives with Casilda looking to find Arturo. She recognizes Diego and asks if he
remembers her. He looks sternly back at
her and says, yes of course he remembers her. Nora says that she’s come looking
for Arturo because she’s not heard anything from him for a while. He says, “Didn’t you know? Arturo’s meeting his girlfriend up in Mexico
City. He’s engaged to be married.”

Arturo remembers
the night he saved Nora from drowning herself in the lake, and he remembers the
first time he kissed her. He thinks to
himself,”Surely, Diego must be telling her why I am still here and am unable to
see her.” Diego tells Don Julian he’s
uncomfortable doing what Don Clemente has asked him with Nora. Don Julian suggests he do what he feels is
best for his friend. He’d do it if it
were up to him. A bit later in the
hotel, Nora arrives with Casilda looking to find Arturo. She recognizes Diego and asks if he
remembers her. He looks sternly back at
her and says, yes of course he remembers her. Nora says that she’s come looking
for Arturo because she’s not heard anything from him for a while. He says, “Didn’t you know? Arturo’s meeting his girlfriend up in Mexico
City. He’s engaged to be married.” Nora’s eyes begin to tear and he
continues,” Didn’t he tell you? You
were such good friends, I thought.”
Then he asks her if there’s a message for Arturo and she answers,
“No. No message.” She turns and to leave the hotel, but then
changes her mind, "Tell him I never want to see him again in my
life.” Casilda runs after asking her
why is she crying for? She answers that
Arturo cheated on her and that she’s not going to cry for any man again, ever.
--Diego stands there worrying about what he’s just done. Arturo tries to call him right then from the
hospital, but has to hang up because the doctor is coming out with news of
Diana’s condition. –Later, Arturo is
talking to Micaela and says that although Diana is better, he’s very worried
and feels guilty because Diana had told him that night of the accident that she
was romantically interested in him; he’d rejected her advances and told her
about the girl in Morelia he’d just met. —During all of this Nora cries in her
room telling the picture of her father that “You were right, Papa. I have to marry a rich man even though I do
not love him.” She feels guilty at again
having thought to break her promise to her father because of Arturo and she
cries. Later she tells her aunt she’s
definitely ready to find a rich and powerful man to marry. –In her room, Casilda is worried that Nora,
being disillusioned with Arturo will go after “her” Leonardo. She decides therefore to manage a way to
keep them separated.
Diego speaks to
Don Julian telling how badly he feels for having deceived Nora and let down
Arturo in this way. Don Julian says
that he’d have done the same for his friend.
At that point, Renata arrives, he excuses himself, and they agree to
hold the graduation dance at the hotel there.
As they walk Renata tells him that she’s invited Diego as her date.
–Alejandra tells Nora she thinks Nora will look very pretty in her new wardrobe
and reminisces about her youth. She
promises her that soon she’ll be married in the church with one of the
wealthiest families around. –Arturo keeps reading about the plane crash his
father was thought to be responsible for all those years ago. He looks identical to his father’s photo
except for the heavy beard his father wore.
–Nora starts her training with which to enter high society. She must smile, eat, drink, walk and dance a
certain way. Casilda practices all of
this herself, but behind her madrina’s back. –Renata thinks about Rafa, their
first quarrel, and then their first kiss and their last quarrel. This really continues to bother her. Her father is surprised to see her talking
to herself, and makes a joke. She asks
if he’s spoken to her mother recently.
By chance, Cathy is out looking at the cooperative’s arts and crafts in
the little plaza where Rafa has his displayed. She stops and suggests he should think of exporting his
work. He replies that that has always
been his dream. At that, Cathy offers
to back him in this venture. ---Isaura and Alfredo are chortling over their
list of petty crimes concerning Nora, Heriberto and Gertrudis. Isaura complains that she’s fed up with
the subject of Nora, but admits that she has to worry about her own future and
must act accordingly. Alfredo says he
figures that he’s going to get a bundle from his dealings with Don Heriberto
and his wife. Renata, he figures, is
paying attention to him as well, and so something may come of that down the
road. He suggests to Isaura that she’d
do well to find a way to ingratiate herself with Alejandra and somehow manage
to live in that grand house in Morelia.
Nora is practicing
dancing with Leonardo while Pilar, Alejandra, and Casilda watch. Pilar says that Nora has a natural gift for
dance. They are thankful to Leonardo
for volunteering to assist in teaching her.
He offers that it has been a pleasure.
Casilda cannot stand his saying this and pipes up that Nora’s only going
to marry a millionaire. Alejandra
reprimands her for her impudence.
Leonardo manages a small smile and says he’s sure that more than one
will give themselves up to Nora’s beauty.
Nora smiles embarrassed and lowers her gaze. –Alejandra asks after his wealthy employer and his beautiful
wife, Evaristo and Gisela Lopez de Montfort.
She asks if they will be attending her party. All this while Leonardo cannot keep his eyes off Nora and Casilda
doesn’t miss this. ---As Diego is having second thoughts about what he did to
Nora, Arturo reaches him on his cell.
He updates Diego regarding Diana’s condition and then asks if he’s seen
Nora yet. Diego lies and says no. Arturo again says he appreciates his with
Nora and that he wouldn’t trust anybody else to do it. Then he has to cut the call short. Diego by then is feeling so guilty at having
lied to Nora he decides to go back to her house and tell her the truth.
---Leonardo asks Alejandra why she’s not thought to introduce Casilda to
society and she laughs at him. Casilda
says her madrina has told her that no one would ever pay attention to her and
she’s not going to marry ever. Pilar
suggests that with a little bit of fixing up she could attract someone. Alejandra tells them that it doesn’t matter;
she mimes that Casilda’s teeth and nose are too hideous. Leo responds that men don’t always put
exterior beauty first. As Leonardo and Nora walk toward the outer gate he tells
her that she must learn to verbally defend herself without losing her
composure; that this is a dirty game she must quickly learn.
Claudia and her
nasty friends plan to do something nasty to Paulina and Renata at the
graduation. Renata greets Paulina and
asks if she’s going to the dance with Roberto.
Paulina tells her to forget Rafa because he’s not right for her.
---Meanwhile, Claudia’s plan gets rolling.
She sends Alfredo and Rafa each an invitation to be her date for the
graduation dance, each with a forged signature on Renata’s stationary. Alfredo practically jumps for joy when he
receives his. Rafa is bother at first;
he throws away the invitation and tramples it.
A minute later gives in and decides to pick it up and accept her
invitation. –Rafa comes home and tells Paulina he has now gotten a sponsor to
export his artwork to the U.S. ---Nora leave to say good-bye to Leonardo and he
reminds her that she can count on him for anything. She smiles and he tells her what a beautiful person she is both
inside and out; he wishes he were rich so that he could hope to win her. She interrupts him and asks him never to
speak of love and wants to explain why she feels this way but she glances over
and sees Diego walking towards them.
Without thinking she kisses Leonardo on the mouth and although he’s
taken by surprise he kisses her back passionately. Nora makes sure that although Leonardo doesn’t see Diego coming,
Diego gets a good look at them “passionately kissing”. Diego stops in his tracks and looks more
closely at the two people kissing.
Realizing it’s Nora with another man he decides he was correct in lying
to her about Arturo. He turns around
and goes back to the hotel. Afterward
she tries to explain to Leonardo why she’d done this but he won’t let her talk,
he’s so excited. He leaves and rushes
off happy as ever. Nora looks toward
Diego walking away and says to herself, “Hopefully, Diego will go back and tell
Arturo about this.”
Arturo stays on at
the hospital waiting for Diane to improve.
Don Clemente arrives and he shows his grandfather the file of
information on his father and the plane crash.
Don Clemente mentions that he and his father are so much alike:
determined, strong, brave, and driven.
Whenever his son started with something he continued until it was
finished. –Alejandra again tells Pilar that if she doesn’t pay the high interest
she’s charging her for the loan, then she’ll become her business partner in the
boutique. Pilar offers then to make an
adjustment in Nora’s wardrobe.
–Diego tells Julian that he saw Nora passionately kissing some man in
her doorway, right out in the street as he went back to tell her the
truth. That he said had finally
convinced him that all the negative things he thought about her were
correct. He planned to tell Arturo
because he had to know she’d only been playing with him. Right then an invitation arrives for
Julian. It is for a party of
introduction for Nora into the local Social Scene. Julian states it’s now clear that they are looking to marry her
off. Diego replies that from what he’s
seen it looks as if she’s already found someone. –Alejandra is making out her final list of preparations for the
coming-out party and giving instructions to the servants. She asks Casilda what she plans to wear to
the party. Casilda says she has a dress
that she wears to all events. –Rafa is renting a couple of tuxedos for the
graduation festivities when Diego comes out of one of the dressing rooms. Rafa greets him and then asks if he
remembers him from a visit or two to the artesans’ plaza. He says of course. They discuss the fact that they both have dates for the dance but
before Rafa can say whom he’s going with the sales rep hands him his two
tuxedos and he says good-bye and leaves.
Alfredo also is there renting a tuxedo for the same date!
Nora complains
that the dress is now too loose on her around the waist. Casilda says it’s surely that she has been
losing weight with all the sad things that have been happening to her
recently. She suggests going to Pilar
for an adjustment. Casilda is becoming
depressed at the thought of comparing Nora’s beauty with her ugliness. –Renata complains to her mother that her day
had invited his employee as his date to the graduation. She asks her mother is she still loves her
dad. At that moment Paulina knocks at
the door needing help from Renata in picking out a gown for the dance. They decide to go to Pilar’s boutique since
she’s a good friend of her mother’s and can get a good discount for
Paulina. –At the hospital the doctor
tells Arturo that he’s not needed there and should go home and get some rest. He agrees and tells his grandfather that the
next day he’s going looking for the engineer that worked with his dad to see
what he might know about the cause of the plane crash. He had been the
maintenance engineer that fateful day.
Don Clemente loans him his car on condition he gets to come along.
---Alfredo complains to Gertrudis about the cost of renting a tuxedo for the
graduation. She gives him the money for
the tuxedo. –Isaura arrives at
Alejandra’s house under the pretext of visiting Nora. The servant tells her no one is home except Casilda watching her
language tapes. She wanders upstairs
and finds Casilda in her room watching her porn videos. “Oh, so this is one of
your language tapes?”
Arturo and Don
Clemente don’t get any information from the old engineer but Arturo says he’ll
come back again later. As they are
stopped at a light a homeless man, pushing a cart, starts to cross the street
in front of them and turns to look inside their auto. He stops and stares, thinking to himself, “This can’t be!! It’s Arturo Sandoval!!” Arturo and his grandfather wonder why the
old beggar has stopped and is continuing to stare at them like that. –Nora
arrives at Pilar’s for her fitting and spies a beautiful raspberry-colored
2-piece gown. She loves it and asks to
try it on for fun. Pilar says it’s a
lovely gown and she was only sent two of them from the designer. Nora caries it into the changing room as
Paulina arrives. She sees the other of
the two raspberry gowns and takes it into her dressing room. Nora comes out to the mirror and is admiring
the gown; Paulina comes out to see how hers looks, also. The two look up at each other and giggle at
how they seem to have the same taste.

Nora and Paulina
are trying on the same gown and look up at each other in the mirror. They admire it on each other, giggle, and
agree they seem to have the same good taste.
–Arturo thinks he recognizes the old beggar from somewhere but cannot
place him. –Isaura grabs a cassette and
then blackmails Casilda with telling Alejandra about the erotic videos unless
she finds a way to convince her madrina to let Isaura stay in the house. Casilda has no other choice but to
comply. –The beggar is tormented by the
memory of seeing Arturo in the car and the airplane as is flies overhead. –Isaura keeps the video as insurance that
Casilda will comply with her demands.
She runs into Nora coming in and Nora confides in her saying she’s now
convinced the best thing for her is to marry a rich man. –Claudia blackmails Roberto with showing
Paulina’s scrapbook photos of him at the graduation dance if he doesn’t cancel
on Paulina and take her instead.
Isaura thinks to make a cake for
Alejandra. –Alfredo stops by Isaura’s
house and she tells him that she’s going to live in Nora’s aunt’s house with
her. ,--Casilda tells the cook that her madrina is lowering her pay. When the cook complains she fires her. –Diego tells Arturo then next time he calls
about Nora that they need to talk in person about her. Diana regains consciousness and Arturo is
finally relieved and happy. –Alejandra
becomes furious about losing the cook because of the party she’s planning for
Nora’s introduction. Isaura comes in
from the kitchen with a cake for her to try, claiming it’s extremely rich and
delicious. –Roberto tells Renata the
he’s must tell Paulina he cannot take her to the dance after all. She’s bitter but he leaves without further
explanations.
Casilda suggests
to Alejandra that she replace the cook with Isaura. Alejandra doesn’t like the idea at all, but because it’s too late
to hire another cook she relents and takes on Isaura. –Paulina is going the church to pray and to thank the Virgin for
the marvelous evening she’s going to have.
–The doctor informs Arturo and Diana that her recuperation is going
along very nicely and he leaves the hospital happy and relieved. –The barber, Don Roque, fixes Pascuala’s
hair in the meantime for her 15th birthday party and the
“quinceañero” festivities. –Alejandra tells Nora it’s important that she not
take the initiative in talking to a man, because if he doesn’t take the bother
to cross the room to talk to one, he’s not interested. Additionally, she’s never to stop smiling,
ever. --At Pascuala’s quinceañero mass, Arturo arrives with the other’s and
tells them the good news about Diana. –Paulina’s father gives her a beautiful
necklace that had been her mother’s.
She’s extremely happy at the thought of going to the dance in the
beautiful gown she’d just bought. She
begins looking for her scrapbook that contains the pictures of her and
Roberto. She doesn’t realize that earlier
Claudia had tricked her father and she and her 2 friends gotten invited into
the house. While they kept him occupied
Claudia had gone into Paulina’s room, found the scrapbook and stolen it in
order to blackmail Roberto and humiliate Paulina.
Diego feels he has
no alternative but to tell Arturo by phone that he’d seen Nora and another man
(Leonardo) kissing passionately at her gate out in the street. Arturo cannot believe this at all. He accuses Diego of lying, but Diego says
no, it happened and he saw it. Arturo’s
grandfather calls to him and he has to hang up, but Diego tells him he wouldn’t
be capable of lying about a subject like this.
–Isaura does all she can to ingratiate herself with Alejandra, that she
should be more careful of the people she deals with since she’s certain it was
the cook who’d taken that missing porcelain cat (she’d actually stolen) from
the living room. –Alfredo tells
Heriberto that Isaura left the little town to live in the mansion with Nora and
her Aunt in Morelia. –Cathy tells
Renata that since Roberto won’t be able to be Paulina’s date, she’d ask her
good friend Juan Carlos, the class’s guest speaker for the evening, to be
Paulina’s date. –Casilda asks for her
video back but Isaura says not until Alejandra allows her to stay there
permanently. –Arturo’s company calls
him to fly down to Morelia since all the other pilots are already covering
other flights. He leaves the house
without a word to anyone. Don Clemente comments that his grandson looks
preoccupied and upset. –Heriberto calls Isaura and threatens her over the phone
because he’s already paid her for Nora.
While flying to
Morelia Arturo can’t stop thinking about the phone conversation, he and Diego
had concerning Nora kissing someone else.
–Nora at the same time can’t stop thinking how bitter she is at what
Diego had told her concerning Arturo having a fiancé in Mexico City. She is
more convinced than ever to marry a millionaire and forget about love. –Juan Carlos Orellano hands out the diplomas
at the journalism class’s graduation.
He announces Paulina as the class Valedictorian. –Arturo arrives in
Morelia and now has a chance to talk to Diego about Nora. Diego tells him that tonight she’s being
introduced into society and they’re looking to marry her off to a rich man. All of this upsets and saddens Arturo. He cannot believe Nora would do this. He remembers Diego telling him, “It pains me
to tell you that she’s cheated on you and decieved you, but it’s better that
you open your eyes and see her for what she is. Forget about her; just forget about her! --Nora isn’t enthusiastic about the party
being given in her honor. When Pilar
asks her if she’s truly ready to renounce love for money Nora answers that
she’s not giving up anything because it simply doesn’t exist. Pilar is surprised at the rage in her
words. Nora changes the subject and
thanks Pilar for having given her the dress that she liked so much.
The graduation
dinner-dance both Alfredo and Rafa present themselves to Renata and because of
the confusion they show their invitations (the ones Claudia had forged and sent
them) to prove she’d asked each to be her date for the evening. Renata denies having sent them even thought
they’re on her stationary. At the last,
Diego comes and says actually he’s Renata’s date for the evening and the two of
them go off to the Quiroga’s table.
Rafa returns to his family’s table and Alfredo wangles his way to
Renata’s by asking Julian to allow him since he has no table. –Paulina then
sees Claudia and Roberto come in and she’s of course, upset but says nothing
and averts her gaze.
At Alejandra’s the

Nora yields upon the insistence of Casilda
and Isaura and accepts Osvaldo's invitation.
Very excited, Osvaldo shouts in excitement as he hangs the phone. Then
he finds out he just hung up without saying anything to Nora and calls her
again. He thanks her sincerely.
Rafael gives Paulina an envelope with his
savings. He tells her he wants her to use the money to make her dreams of going
to Mexico a reality. She refuses, but he insists. She is moved.
Alejandra waits for Joaquin Arcadio at the
cafeteria when he arrives and touches her shoulder. "Joaquin Arcadio"
she says without turning around. Joaquin Arcadio smiles maliciously while he
touches his eybrow with his little finger. "So on time as usual my dear
Alejandra, it is a pleasure to see you" he says hypocritecally. "Why
do you seek me, what do you want ? " Alejandra yells back while he makes
fun of her anger.
Arturo leaves his house with Mirta at his
arm and quite honeyed she tells him she is grateful for his support. "You
know that not only are you my brother's best friend, now you have become someone very important in
my life". SHe kisses him and Arturo then notices Felipe is observing them
from a car parked in the corner. Mirta notices and the approach the car to try
to talk it out once and for all, but the chauffer drives off. "Typical from my dad" she
complains. Arturo tells her he doesn;t want her to have any more problems with
her father because of him. Mirta wants to return home so his father won't take
the anger off with her mom and assures Arturo if it weren't for her mother, she
would've left home already.
Paulina tells Rafael she can't accept his
savings, and that besides, she doesn't need them any more because she already
found a job in Morelia. He tries to insist but she interrupts once again,
decided to look happy and excited with her new job. "Are you sure that's
what you want?" he asks woriiedly. "Yes, yes, of course I am sure my
dear brother" she tells him while she tenderly grabs his cheeks and kisses
him. "Don't worry, really, you are a charm! But I'm ok. Nothing is going
on, ok? "
In the cafeteria, Joaquin Arcadio takes a
drink sitting in front of Alejandra "This drink, and all my expenses are
yours from now on" he says. "You haven't told me what you came for. I
thought I would never see you again" she replies. "Do you forget your
friends so quickly?" with a smirk. "You and I have never been
friends! You arrived to my life just to get money from me and I gave it to you
in return for your silence! What do you want now?" Arcadio answers he
wants more money She replies she has already given him enough to never have to
see him again and that she will not give him one more cent. He laughs again and asks her to toast, even
if she does it with coffee, for the good times. He tells her he imagines she
has more and more money, because he knows she lends money at very high interest
rates. "How much do you want Joaquin Arcadio?" she asks him, tired of
listening to him. He tells her there is no rush to talk about quantities, and
to please let him enjoy his drink. At that, Nora and Osvaldo enter the
cafeteria and Nora immediatly sees her aunt and stops Osvaldo. "There's my
aunt" she says just like a secondary shool girl who has skipped school.
Osvaldo, as gushy as usual, wants to salute Alejandra but Nora stops him and
tells him she doesn't wish her aunt to see her, because she went out without
her permission. "Lets go someplace else" she begs worried.
"Whatever you wish! You give the orders!" says Osvaldo, and they
leave.
Arturo is back to Mexico where Don Clemente
explains to him that Felipe Fernandez de Lara has always been a harsh and
egoistical person and explains that he comes form a family of farmers and that
he has always denied it and has tried to make everyone believe that he has
always been a millionaire. "That is absurd Grandfather! There is nothing
as noble as work and if Mr. Felipe has come to where he is by working hard, it
is twice the merit, or not?" says Arturo, convinced. "I also believe
it like that" says Don Clemente, "but he is so insecure that he
thinks that being humble is a sin". He then changes subjet "And tell
me Arturo, are your intentions towards Mirta serious?"..
"Grandfather, I talked to her honestly. I told her I am not in love with
her and she accepted me like that. Mirta asked for time". His grandfather
tells him it is a good time for him to think about settling down and reminds
him he already has had his affairs and that the time has come that he start
thinking more seriously. "As I told you grandfather, at this time there is
nothing serious. Lets leave things to time. The only thing I know is that I am
interested, that is all". Don Clemente is satisfied with that and asks him
if he could find out anything about Juan Salvador. "No, but there's something that tells me that man can help
me clarify the accident where my parents died". Meanwhile, the 3 street kids
find Juan Salvador pushing his cart of scarps in the street and tell him
someone is looking for him. He asks how that person looks like. "He is
blond, tall" says one of the kids and he immediatly figures it is Arturo.
It is obvious he doesn't want to be found. He asks the children what they have
told Arturo about him and they assure him that nothing. "Don't tell anyone
anything about me. Remember... the people who live in the street like is is
loyal! So please don't betray me" and then he shooes them away.
Nora tells Casilda and Isaura that she saw
her aunt with a man. They are very surprised and they are left thinking about
the mysterious man that accompanied Alejandra in the cafeteria.
At the cafeteria, Alejandra pays the bill
and Joaquin Arcadio tells the server to keep the change. Alejandra is
astonished and can only babble while the server thanks them and walks away.
"How nice hugh? To brag with other peoples' money" she tells him
while he enjoys having bugged her. "Lets set things straight right now. I
don't have the money you are asking for, Joaquin Arcadio, I don't." says
Alejandra. "Bummer, I will have to sell my memories then. And guess what,
you appear in almost every chapter. Here in Morelia it will sell like hot
bread. What do you think?" he tells her. "Don't even think about
it" she says and she then tells him that what she meant is that she didn't
have the money available at that moment. Arcadio says there is no rush and
informs her he will stay as a guest in her house because he doesn't like
hotels. "What? In my house?" she says surprised. "And why
not?" he replies. "No way, forget it!" she says. "We can
say I am your speach teacher, or if you want we can tell them the truth, that
you and I.... do you remember the kisses we gave each other?!" he says
laughing out loud "Shut up! Shut up you stupid" she says, turning
around to check that nobody has listened. "So now what, do we go to your
house, or do we have another drink?" he says, while Alejandra shivers with
rage.
Arturo looks for Mirta's parents to clear
things about the kiss Felipe presenced and he is received by the mother who
says that maybe it is better not to worsen things. "I'm sorry m'am but I
never hide. I always talk things straight out" says Arturo, and he asks the
secretary to inform Felipe that he is there.
Alejandra takes Joaquin Arcadio home and
she introduces him to Nora and Casilda, and at the end, she presents Isaura as
"the service". Arcadio kisses Nora and Casilda's hand gallantly.
"Delighted to meet you, beauties" and Casilda giggles. "Are you
from here, from Morelia?" she asks with curiosity. Alejandra hurries and
answers before Arcadio does "No! The gentleman has always resided in
abroad" she says. "Alejandra and I have always been very good friends
of all life, right Alejandra?" he elaborates. "Yes, turns out we
bumped to each other and I invited him to stay in the house for a couple of
days" explains Alejandra. Casilda remains amazed and blinks rapidly...
"HERE?" she asks "He's staying here in the house?" she asks
increduley "Well if it is too much of a hassle I will return to the
hotel..." and Casilda candidly replies "No no no! Don't misunderstand
me! It is just that I find it vary rare that my godmother has invited someone
to stay in the house. Yes. She has never done something like that and
least..."she continues without holding her laughter "... with a
man." she finishes while Arcadio laughs jovialy. "That's enough Casildita, that's enough please. Joaquin
Arcadio is someone very special" Alejandra tells her bothered. She then
asks Mariano to show Joaquin Arcadio his room as she doesn't feel well. Arcadio
remains in the living room and again passes his little finger over his eyebrow.
Arturo confronts Felipe despite him sending
the secreteray back to tell him he can't see him. Arturo ignores the denial and
storms into Felipe's office., who asks him to leave without wanting to hear
him. "First you have to listen to me. I know very well that your anger
comes from seeing me with Mirta. And that's why I'm here. To tell you that
problems aren't solved by turning your back on them." he says. "You
are nobody to come and tell me what I have to do. But since you are already
here, I will tell you what I think of you. You are a bad influence for my
children. It's your fault that Diego has disobeyed me and instead of attending
the hotels as is his obligation he is a lousy pilot! and if that weren't enough
you have also come near Mirta to turn her against me. But I am not going to
allow that, do you hear me? I will not allow that!" he yells pointing to his chest. Ana Maria listens behind the door. "Don't
come now and pretend you are this great friend of my kids, please!!!!" he
says sacrastically. "Surely, Mirta interests you because of her money, MY
money" he tells him with fiercely. Arturo can't believe it, with a smile
of deceipt he shakes his head trying to deny himself what he has just heard.
"What a low value you give to your son and daughter" he says looking
at him with pitty "Excuse me" he says and leaves the office. He says
good bye to Mirta's mom who asks him to
stop seeing Mirta for some time to try to avoid problems. He thinks that is not
the way of confront the problems in his life. Mirta arrives and is surprised of
seeing Arturo there. When she finds out about the reason he is there she asks
what happened with her father, but she finds out he was in denial and says she
will talk to him. Both Arturo and Ana
Maria stop her and Arturo assures her he will continue seeing her if she wants
to and she calms down. "I'm glad you aren't afraid of my dad" she
says.
"The love letters I wrote you,
Jacobo... the ones I never dared to send you" thinks Alejandra while she
extracts her frustrated love letters. She opens one and tenderly brings one
close to her face. "In this one I confess to him my secret... my ONLY
secret. To my disgrace, Joaquin Arcadio also knows about it. Why did he have to
come back! Why! she thinks worriedly while a tear runs down her face. Isaura
tries to extract information from the other servers. "Who can it be?"
Isaura asks when Arcadio enters the kitchen "A good friend of hers"
he replies, surprising the three. "I am a bit hungry... do you have
something I can snack on?" he asks.
Kathy explains Julian that Kerry, her
husband, is going to London and that she would like to stay a bit longer in
Morelia while Renata decides if she is going to Mexico or staying. Julian is
delighted. "Even if we are
divorced, our daughter is and will continue to be the most important thing in
our lives" he answers. She asks
him why they divorced, while she touches her ex-husband's face. "We
discussed, fighted" he says sadly "about nonsense" she says.
Julian recalls that their first years they were very happy and they are sorry
that things turned out wrong. Suddenly, Kathy says good bye. Renata tells
Paulina that she can't believe that she's ending up reporting society events
and tries to convince her to take the job in Mexico. Meanwhile, Leonardo asks permission to Julian to approach
Renata. At the same time, Arturo arrives
at the hotel. A bit before he had asked for a change in route because he didn't
want to return to Morelia, but his boss couldn't please him because Diego had
gone to his training for the new job. To him it is torture to be so close to
Nora and not go looking for her.
At Heriberto's hotel, Alfredo arrives and
Gertrudis runs to receive him. He says he went to buy himself some new clothes
because he will be living in such a luxurious hotel. Gertridis praises Alfredo
while Heriberto says "How nice of you, always worrying about making us
look right". Alfredo doesn't lose opportunity to his benefit and suggests
Gertrudis a great party for the inaugration of the hotel and says that he can
even sing some of the songs from his new demo that he is doing for Juan Carlos
and assures that he will help him be a great artist. Gertrudis delighted says she would love to see him giving
autographs.
A little bit later, Arturo sees Nora get
into a car and he follows her. Nora meets Kathy and Pilar and greets them. She
says she will go up with them as soon as she asks something in reception, and
from there she asks to be communicated to Osvaldo's room. "It's busy"
she says, and one second later, Arturo approaches to find out what she is up
to. She continues "what is the room of Mr. Osvaldo?" the employee
tells her the room number and after thanking him, Nora leaves. Arturo thinks
that, not only did she come looking for a man, she is also going to his room.
In reality, Nora is going to Kathy's suite. She had asked for Osvaldo's room
number so she could communicate directly from the suite. When she arrives at
the suite, she asks Kathy if she can use the phone, and tries calling Osvaldo
again to tell him she has arrived. He apologizes for not having found him
before, but he was talking to his father and asks her to call him when she ends
her visit so they can go down together.
Paulina is desperate looking at the
pictures of the wedding she has to report about. She feels frustrated because
despite having studied so hard to be the best and of all the effort her dad and
brother did she has ended doing such an insignificant job when she would
actually like to report politics or something of interest.
Nora asks Pilar if she will help her with
the sewing job she had asked for. Pilar tells her she might not need to work if
she marries a millionaire, but Nora insists that regardless, it would be good
for her so she could save a bit of money in the meantime. Pilar tells her she
is happy to help her and that they can meet the next day in the boutique. Kathy
returns to talk to them and tells them she lives in New York since she divorced
Julian. Pilar says it is amazing how well they get along and Kathy said they
divorced amicably and that they remain friends. Nora says good bye to both ladies
and calls Osvaldo to tell him she's ready.
When she leaves Pilar tells Kathy that Nora has suffered very much.
"I hope she finds happiness soon" Pilar says sincerely.
Osvaldo reaches Nora at the stairs and
happily and gallantly takes her arm and looks at her with loving eyes. Arturo
finds them at the end of the stairs. "I thought you were a different type
of woman, but I see I was wrong" Nora looks confused while Osvaldo gets
angry "What's your problem? Why do you talk like that to Nora??
hugh??" he claims and Arturo goes
against him and pushes him against the wall ready to hit him. Nora desperately
stops him "Arturo, please!" and Arturo controls himself and
apologizes. "Sorry, I hope you are happy Nora" he says, and leaves. "Who
was that guy and why does he talk to you like that?" asks Osvaldo, as they
walk towards the restaurant. "Don't give it any importance. He is
nobody" she says, while Osvaldo remains looking towards where Arturo left.
Renata is talking to Arturo. "Then you
know Nora?" she asks "That's right". Arturo looks sad. "And
do you know she is going to marry a millionaire?" asks Renata trying to
start a conversation "Looks like
everybody knows or not?" he replies. "Yes, he is a very rich cowboy,
and by marrying Nora she will accomplish all of her plans, she will have money,
which is what she wants", without knowing she has just confirmed Arturo's
erronouse deductions.
Osvaldo tells Nora that his father wants to
come and meet his future wife as soon as possible. Nora thinks they are going
too fast, but he doesn't think so. "No, no! Not at all, I like you and I
am not indifferent to you… As soon as my dad meets you we will set the wedding
date with your aunt Alejandra, what do you think?" he tells her with
enthusiasm. "I think it's…. ok" says Nora, but she doesn't seem
convinced.
Evaristo complains about his love life with
Leonardo. He says Gisela and him do not get along well any more. He thinks it
can be the age difference, distant interests. In appearance, they seem to get
along well but they are bored with one another.
Arturo turns the light in his room on and
off, torturing himself with memories of Nora with Osvaldo by his side. Arturo
thinks "She was in his room" and he remembers the words of his
grandfather's warnings and Diego's accusations. To top it off, he also
remembers Renata's comments. Paulina and Rafael have a discussion because
Rafael refuses to accept Kathy's help; he doesn't want Renata to think he is
taking advantage. Paulina asks him to accept the help, because Kathy offered
her help before he knew she was Renata's mom but he insists he prefers to get
help some place else. "Renata is right" exclaims Paulina… "I
wouldn't want to say this to you but sometimes you act like a Mexican macho and
become egoistical. Now tell me, what fault do the artisans have that you and
Renata have problems? To them, the important thing is to export their work! You
should put your personal differences to the side. The artisans trust you
Rafael, don't defraud them" she says.
Arcadio tells Alejandra he is thinking of
buying a mansion in Mexico City with the money she is going to give them, and
makes fun of her. Furious, she throws
to his feet a rose he has just given to her.
Nora is sad in her room when she hears a
noise, and when she turns around, she sees Arturo. "How dare you! What are
you doing here?" she says, while he slowly gets close "I came to
return this" he says and he kisses her forcefully. Nora gets away and is
furious "How dare you!" she repeats and slaps him. He takes her by the
waist and holds her close "I don't see why you are angry" he says
"You know why I dare to kiss you without having the money to buy your love
or your favors?" he asks trying to hurt her deeply just the way he feels
"Go away! Go Away" she says getting lose from his arms "I am
glad I knew the truth on time.. everyone has told me differently, but I was
determined to believe in you. How wrong I was!" he says hurtfully.
"Really, how wrong. You are not worthwhile Nora. Someone who sells her love..
is not worth it" he says about to cry. The pain in Nora's face full of
tears is very deep. "Go away" says Nora and she slaps him again.
Arturo responds pulling her towards him once again and forcing her face to his
with a hand on her neck. At first she hits and pushes, but finally melts in his
arms. When he lets go, it looks more like a goodbye kiss of two lovers. Nora is
left as in a trance…
Alejandra is speaking to the maid
complaining about Arcadio and goes to drink a tea. Isaura takes advantage and
tries to open the drawer when Arcadio walks in on her. "Aren't you in Alejandra's room? It is
obvious you are interested on knowing what is in that drawer" she lies
saying she was just dusting and leaves.
Arturo descends Nora's balcony and Alfredo
sees him. In his room, before going to
sleep, Arturo recalls his last encounter to Nora with sadness. "I've got
to forget you Nora. I have to forget you… But how?" At the same time Nora
remembers his hurtful words "Why did he come to humiliate me? With what
right did he come and tell me all that. Why did he come and torment me again
with his kisses?" she says while tears roll down her face. "why, why
WHY!" she cries desperately. Nora wakes up in the morning still crying.
"Arturo, despite everything I love you, I love you with all my soul. Why,
why did things complicate this way?" she desperately thinks.
Renata tells her dad she is thinking of
going to Mexico even if Paulina doesn't go.
Hilda reminds Julian that Leonardo went looking for Renata. Renata is
surprised. Hilda thinks he is a good suitor, even if he doesn't have money.
Renata says that that is not important to her.
Alfredo tells Heriberto he saw Arturo
climbing down Nora's balcony. Heriberto is furious thinking that someone got
ahead of him. Gertrudis approaches and thinks they are having a discussion
because of Heriberto's attitude but both lie to her and she calms down.
Alejandra and Casilda eat and Casilda
giggles quietly seeing her godmother worried. She asks if something is wrong.
Alejandra denies it. She asks for
Arcadio and then she tells Casilda she is going to Mexico with Arcadio.
"What for, if you never go anywhere?" says casilda. "Note, that
I don't have any reason to explain everything to you" replies Alejandra.
Nora arrives and standing behind Alejandra and making a sign to Casilda tells
her not to say anything.
Renata
believes Paulina should apologize to Juan Carlos in person and asks her to go
with her to Mexico. She thinks that maybe being there, Paulina can change her
mind and take the job.
Arcadio says good bye to Nora and Casilda
by kissing their hands. Casilda even blinks quickly like in the silence
movies. "And are we going to see
you again?" asks Casilda "I think so, right Alejandra?" he says.
"I don't know, because Arcadio, at your age… who knows, no?" she
says. Casilda can't hold her laughter, but gets a hold of herself and just says
"Si". Nora asks when she will be back and Alejandra says she will
call them. When Arcadio finds out they
are going in the bus he refuses and
forces Alejandra to make air reservations.
Arturo's grandfather desires something
serious to happen between Mirta and Arturo despite her father. Manolo asks him
if he is interested in Diana. Arturo
says that only as the good friend she is.
Heriberto pressures Isaura once more saying
that he thinks someone else already took Nora's virtue from him. Isaura swears
Nora is a virgin. "I don't believe you, but if it is true, there is only
one way of proving it, and you already know what it is" he says.
Renata tells Paulina that she met Diego's
friend that she hasn't been able to introduce to her. Paulina says she is not
interested in meeting him, but Renata insists that she will introduce them.
Mirta is sad waiting for Arturo.
"Mirta! I was coming to see you this moment. How is the situation with
your father going?" she says "It's the same, with him, there's no
remedy.. he is so harsh… sometimes I get the impression he doesn't love anybody
in the family" she says worried. "No, no, no, don't say that… the
thing is he loves you, but his way" he says to calm her "Thanks for
being with me in these moments Arturo. Now is when I most need your
company" she says thoughtfully "I will be at your side whenever you
need me" he replies. "Arturo, I have been thinking… would you marry
me???

Gisele's hubby WANTS Nora bad. He is a bit odd looking. I thought he was
going to be a good guy but he is gonna be a big pervert. Liked he said to
Leo...nothing in this world is free. He seems like a snake in the grass. I felt a bit sorry for Paulina...bumping
into Arturo...and each time he was hugging another woman. It was actually
funny!! But it was interesting that Arturo shared his feelings about Nora with
Mirta. The world is truly a small place especially in novelaland! Alfredo the creep...yuck...I don't like this
character at all. He was sucking face like a dog in heat...Isaura should get
rid of him and soon! He really is not singing?? Is he doing the Brittney

finds Heriberto and Casilda in the middle of their encounter. Alejandra is
horrified when she realizes what occurred.
She insults and tells Heriberto to leave her house. She then turns and tells Casilda to leave
her house immediately. Just then,
Isaura walks in and tells Casilda to go back to her room while she talks to
Alejandra. She does not want to listen
to her, but Isaura tells her that she knows her secrets. She tells her that Casilda is the daughter
she had with Jacob and that she cannot deny it. She blackmails her with this information and makes her promise
that both she and Casilda can stay in her house.
When Felipe looks for Joaquin, he finds
that he had already left the hotel.
Joaquin looks at the pictures and wonders what is going on.
The following morning during breakfast,
Nora notices that Alejandra is acting strange and seems too quiet. She apologizes to her for not welcoming her
the night before, but she was asleep because Isaura had given her some sleeping
pills. As she is telling her this,
Isaura walks into the dining room with a large tray full of food and sits at
the other end of the table. Nora is
surprised to see Isaura not dressed in her maid uniform and with so much
food. Isaura explains that these are
the new house rules she and Alejandra decided upon. Nora remains confused.

Telenovela-World (Beatriz): Thursday
– July 8th
Arturo tells Juan Salvador that he will not
be pressing charges against him because of his illness. He is not sure he will ever be able to
forgive him, but he does know that sending him to jail will not solve
anything. He thinks things are better
this way and leaves.
Osvaldo apologizes to Alejandra for not
waiting to ask Nora to marry him. She
was unaware of the proposal. Nora
explains to Osvaldo that her aunt returned the night before and they have not
had a chance to talk. Alejandra tells
them she was not expecting the news so soon, but she gladly accepts. Just then, Isaura rushes down the stairs and
yells to Mariano to bring out a bottle of champagne to celebrate. Carmelo wonders who she is and she presents
herself as Nora’s stepmother. She
clarifies that they had met before, when she had been assisting Alejandra as a
maid. She tells Carmelo that as Nora’s
father’s official widower she too gives her permission for the marriage. Horrified but poised, Alejandra has not
choice but to go along with Isaura.
Everyone toasts to the happy couple.
Isaura then beings to make eyes at Carmelo and asks him if he has ever
thought of remarrying, since he is still so young. He uncomfortably tells her no and walks away. As he leaves she tells him that he should
think about it. She proceeds to say a
typical rude saying and whistles.
Everyone is uncomfortable by her actions.
Arturo tells the engineer at the airline
about Juan Salvador. He is surprised
and asks him if he is going to press charges, but Arturo remains firm with his
decision not to.
Alfredo calls Gertrudis to ask her for more
money and she worries about him. He
tells her that he is not eating well, as a woman urges him to hang up the
phone. He signals her to stay quiet as
she goes up to him and kisses him.
Gertrudis is upset by this news and tells him she will be depositing
additional money into his account.
Heriberto is scared that Gertrudis will
discover what occurred with Casilda.
Isaura calls him to set up another meeting with Casilda, but he is
insulted. She tells him that he got
what he wanted, a virgin and that those are difficult to find. She claims that if Alejandra had not walked
in on them, they would be happy now.
Infuriated by her lies, he demands his money back. He threatens her, but she reminds him that
it is his wife’s money and she threatens him with telling Gertrudis about
Casilda. She makes sure he knows that
things are different now and tells him that if he is interested in meeting with
Casilda again, to let her know.
At the Orellana Organization, a meeting is
underway regarding the new magazine project.
Paulina gives one of her ideas for the magazine and Sergio tries to play
it down by saying it is not good. Much
to his dismay, Juan Carlos is fascinated by the idea.
At the Madrigal house, Alejandra suggests
they decide on a wedding date. Osvaldo
asks Nora which day she would like and she looks at her aunt. Isaura steps in and says in one month. Nora turns pale and Alejandra tells her that
three months would me more prudent, but Isaura insists that it take place in a
month. Carmelo and Osvaldo both
agree. Alejandra tries again to push
the date further back by saying that her niece’s wedding should be a grand
event. Isaura refuses to back down and
says that Carmelo can see to all of the details. She insists in a cathedral wedding and Osvaldo replies that he
will get married wherever Nora wants.
Carmelo tells them to just give him the information and he will take
care of everything. Alejandra smiles
and tells him that he is a true gentleman.
As they leave, Osvaldo asks Nora for a kiss, but she simply
refuses. Embarrassed he says
goodbye. Once they leave Alejandra
tells Isaura that she embarrassed her in front of their guests. Isaura makes fun of her and taunts her with
telling Casilda she is her mother. With
a malicious smile on her face, she asks Casilda why she calls Alejandra her
Godmother. “Is she your Godmother for
your baptism, first communion or confirmation?” She then turns to Alejandra and asks her the same question, but
she just turns around without answering her and goes up to her room. Satisfied, Isaura turns around and Casilda
innocently tells her she thinks Alejandra’s her Godmother for her baptism.
Arturo enters a church and asks God for
forgiveness for having strayed away from church without realizing just how much
he needs him. He tells him that he is
not a man who holds grudges nor desires vengeance. For this very reason, he has decided not to press charges against
Juan Salvador even though he is responsible for his parents’ death. He also understands that Juan Salvador made
a mistake and did not intentionally hurt them.
He asks God for help to forgive him and to find inner peace. He quietly bows his head and continues to
pray.
After a business meeting, Sergio welcomes
Diana back to work. He tells her that
with her experience she should be able to be his personal assistant. She is excited at the prospect, however is
unsure of her capabilities. He assures
her that she is very capable and invites her to dinner to discuss the
possibilities. She tries to refuse and
he makes her feel uncomfortable.
Nora tells Casilda she is confused by
Isaura’s new attitude and Casilda says she is even more surprised the Alejandra
has allowed it. Nora notices that
Isaura is even wearing one of her aunt’s broaches. Both of them are curious to figure out what is going on between
them.
In her room, Alejandra desperately paces
around her room trying to figure out how she is going to get rid of
Isaura. She regrets the day she allowed
her to enter her home. Meanwhile,
Isaura washes a large knife in the kitchen and thinks to herself that Alejandra
is not stupid and will not stand by idly.
She decides to get her out of the way.
Leonardo arrives at the Madrigal house to
visit with Nora, but Casilda who happily receives him at the door is barely
noticed by him. He walks right past her
and greets Nora. She welcomes him and
asks him the reason for his visit. He
tells her that Gisela asked him to pick her up for a poker game she is
organizing at her house. Nora does not
think her aunt will allow her to attend, but Isaura walks in and tells her and
Casilda to go. When she agrees,
Leonardo notices her engagement ring and asks her what it means. Before she could answer him, Casilda
enthusiastically tells him that he will be the first to know that she will be
marrying Osvaldo in a month.
At the hotel, Osvaldo is jumping for joy,
but he notices his father is quiet and serious. He asks him what is bothering him. Carmelo tells him he is waiting for some information he
requested, which he will hopefully receive before the wedding. Osvaldo is confused by his answer, but he is
so happy that he simply ignores his father’s strange mood.
As Nora goes upstairs to change for the
poker game, Leonardo rushes up to her and tells her, “If I had money, I would
not allow this wedding to take place.”
Surprised, Nora asks him “Why, Leonardo? I do not love you.” Casilda
listens behind a door. Leonardo insists
that she would love him because he would know how to win her love. Casilda is infuriated and thinks about how
much she hates Nora.
Paulina leaves the office in search of a
phone when she walks past Arturo. She
continues to walk and remembers the kiss they shared and turns around to make
sure it is he. Arturo also recognized
her and turns around as well. Just as
she is about to ask him something, Mirta arrives and kisses Arturo, much to
Paulina’s surprise. Mirta notices
Paulina and tries to present them, but she excuses herself and rushes off.
Carmelo receives the information he has
been impatiently waiting for and sits down to read it. He sees pictures of Joaquin Arcadio and
becomes upset as he continues to read the documents.
In the Lopez-Montfort home, Evaristo
congratulates Nora for her part in Pilar’s fashion show. Betina approaches them and also
congratulates her and tells her she is full of surprises. Evaristo asks Nora to join him in his office
to discuss the progress of her earlier investments. Meanwhile, Casilda approaches Leonardo who longingly looks at Nora
from a far. She tells him she needs to
talk to him, but he tries to push her away.
Casilda insists.
Paulina calls Rafael and her father to let
them know things are going splendidly and that Renata and Roberto are also
working with her on the same project.
Rafael moves away from his father’s side when he hears Renata’s
name. Silverio notices and asks Paulina
about Renata. She responds quickly and
hangs up because the calling card is about to expire. Silverio tells her to take care of herself and dedicate herself
in body and soul to her job. He also
tells her to tell Renata that Rafael says hello. Rafael is annoyed by his father’s words, but confesses to him
that although he has tried to deny his feelings, he is in love with
Renata. He fathers wants to know what
he is going to do about it, but Rafael asks him for advice.
Kathy and Julian say goodbye. Julian is sad to see her leave and tells her
that he has gotten use to her presence again.
He admits he will miss her especially now that Renata has moved
away. She assures him she will always
be there for him and leaves him a letter for him to open when she leaves.
At a restaurant, Arturo tells Mirta that he
has decided not to press charges against Juan Salvador and he will no longer
pursue the investigation. She reminds
him that if he doesn’t continue, he will be giving up the opportunity to become
a commercial pilot. He stands firm by
his decision. She tells him she loves
him even more now because of his noble act and kisses him.
Carmelo asks the investigator if he is
certain the information is correct. He then tells him to investigate Alejandra
and Nora.
Evaristo offers Nora a glass of red wine,
but she refuses. He insists she take it
by telling her that even doctors recommend a glass a day. She finally accepts. Evaristo begins to compliment her again over
the fashion show and she humbly thanks him.
He tells her that she should dress like that more often, but she tells
him she does not like to attract attention.
He tells her she will always attract attention regardless of what she
wears. She looks away embarrassed and
blushes. He is captivated by her beauty
and is pleasantly surprised that she blushed.
Evaristo tells her there aren’t any women like her left. She asks him to change the subject and talk
about her investments. He tells her how
he invested her money in the stock market and she now has a small amount of
capital. She is surprised and wonders
how she can ever thank him. Gisela
walks in and tells Nora that they are all waiting for her to start the
game. Nora is unsure about playing with
them for fear of losing her money.
Evaristo tells her that he will lend her money if she loses and if she wins
she will make her capital grow. Gisela
is annoyed by them and asks her if she is going to play or not. She finally
accepts.
Paulina tries to tell Renata that she ran
into that guy who kissed her in Morelia and that he is dating someone, but is
interrupted by Roberto.
Sergio and Diana run into Mirta and Arturo
at a restaurant during lunch. Diana is
hurt to see him with another woman.
Nora continues to win at the poker
game. One of the women decides to leave
and Evaristo takes her place. She
continues to win and is embarrassed to accept the money, but they insist. Evaristo offers to invest it for her and
Gisela asks him what he is referring to.
Casilda tells Leonardo about the way her
Godmother treats her. He listens to her
while engaged in his favorite pastime, observing Nora. Casilda continues to rant about how her Godmother
tells her she will never marry. She
understands that she is not as beautiful as Nora is but she still deserves to
be happy just like anyone else.
Annoyed, he agrees with her.
Casilda continues talking about how she despises her Godmother’s rules on
how to get a man, although it seems to work because Nora is already engaged to
be married. Exasperated, he agrees with
her and tells her that all rules have exceptions. She asks him what he is referring to and he tells her that all of
those rules can be overlooked for a woman with money. Casilda smiles and asks him if he is serious. He reconfirms what he has said that a woman
with money can buy the man she wants.
He continues haphazardly to say that if she were rich he would marry
her. All the while he is looking for
Nora. Casilda just stares at him in
amazement.
Arturo explains to Mirta how he stole a
kiss from Paulina in Morelia in an attempt to make Nora jealous. He apologizes to her for telling her these
things, because they may hurt her. She
reassures him that as long as he is always truthful with her she will never be
afraid.
Sergio repeatedly tells Diana that he is
misunderstood and unloved by his wife.
He tells her that he is willing to give the woman who gives him love
everything. He is certain that his soul
mate is out there, all the while Diana is upset about Arturo.
Rafael continues to think about
Renata. Silverio tells him to listen to
his heart because that is the only way he will find happiness. He fears she will never accept him and
should listen to his sister’s advice to forget about her. Meanwhile, in Mexico City Paulina tells
Renata how Rafael went after her when she left for the city. She becomes emotional when she discovers
that he does care about her. Paulina
continues to discourage her with Rafael.
They begin to talk about Arturo when Roberto again interrupts them.
Mirta asks Arturo if he is still in love
with Nora and he tells her he is. She
appreciates his sincerity and asks him to go with her. She tells him she would like to visit
Morelia with him.
Isaura gives Alejandra a piece of cake as a
peace offering. She tells her that
together they will be able to accomplish more.
Alejandra is annoyed by her comments and decides to try the cake. Before trying it she gives her cat apiece
and falls asleep before tasting it.
Awhile later she wakes up and is amused to see that the cat finished to
whole slice. She lovingly searches for
her cat and suddenly yells out.
Paulina tells Renata her concerns about
finding a place to live when Roberto arrives. Renata tells her to live with her
at the hotel with her, but she graciously declines the offer. Roberto tells her that there is a room
available at the pension where he is staying, which is nice and
reasonable. He offers to take her and
they exit the building. As the are
leaving, they run into Arturo again and this time Renata happily surprised
rushes to give him a hug. Paulina is
shocked to see her friend hugging this hateful man.
Telenovela-World (Beatriz): Friday
– July 9th
Alejandra is horrified when she finds her
cat dead. As she mourns the death of
her beloved Sissi, she realizes that Isaura must have poisoned the cake and
declares war on her.
In her room, Nora thinks about her first
kiss with Arturo in the middle of the street.
She admits she is not in love with Osvaldo, but knows she should marry
him for his money.
Isaura nervously awaits the results of her
attempted murder. She is sure that
Alejandra is dead and decides to check on her.
Suddenly the lights go out and she searches for a candle. Once she lights the candle and turns around
she sees a black purse on the table.
She opens it and yells when she sees Sissi in the bag. Alejandra walks into the kitchen and tells
her the cake did not agree with Sissi.
Isaura is surprised and tells her she must have eaten something else
that made her sick. Alejandra tells her
to contact the veterinarian.
In Morelia, Mirta knocks on Arturo’s hotel
room door. Arturo is surprised to see her
there and she tells him she desires him.
He is hesitant because he does not love her and would not like to hurt
her feelings. She assures him that he
will not be the first man in her life.
She begins to kiss him and he finally concedes. Afterwards, Mirta realizes she is in love
with him and falls asleep happily.
Arturo on the other hand is quiet and serious because he realizes that
he does not love her despite his attempt.
He just cannot forget Nora.
Gisela invites Nora to her house for
another game of poker. Isaura gives her
and Casilda permission to go. Later at
Gisela’s house, Evaristo takes Nora to the library to discuss her investment. He gives her the good news that her
investment has grown. Nora tells him
she does not know how she will ever be able to pay all he is doing for
her. He responds by telling her that
she will find a way. Gisela walks in
and tells Nora they are waiting for her.
At the pension, everyone is seated at the
dinner table. They are all chattering
incessantly. Clemente calls their
attention to welcome Paulina to the house.
Felipe throws away the pictures of Joaquin
Arcadio.
Alejandra decides to have a small reception
to formally announce Nora and Osvaldo’s engagement.
Heriberto thinks about Nora when Gertrudis
walks in and he quickly sits up and pretends to be working. She suspiciously asks him what he is
doing. He gets up and tries to hug her,
but she pushes him away in disgust. She
reminds him that she is the one with the money and not him. She threatens that if she finds out he is
with someone she will leave him in the street penniless.
Isaura and Casilda prepare the appetizers
for the reception.
Ana Maria finds the pictures that Felipe
threw in the garbage can and wonders who he is.
In a taxi, Paulina cannot forget the kiss
Arturo gave her and begins to insult him out loud.
Arturo is in the lobby of the Hotel
Villareinal when he overhears Osvaldo telling his father to hurry up or they
will be late for his engagement party with Nora. Arturo is saddened when he hears this.
Juan Salvador goes to see Clemente. He is surprised by his visit and Juan
Salvador confesses that he was responsible for his son’s fatal accident. Clemente gets upset and begins to have a
heart attack.
The guests begin to arrive at the Madrigal
house. Isarua is in the kitchen putting
some powder in a drink and tells Mariano to give the drink to Alejandra. Just as she is about to drink from the glass
she realizes the guests do not have drinks.
At this point, Osvaldo and Carmelo arrive, which makes her content. Carmelo however immediately shows everyone a
copy of the newspaper where Nora was accused of attempted murder against
Heriberto Reyes in Pazcuaro. Nora is
embarrassed and shocked. Carmelo
continues by telling everyone that when he decided to investigate the family he
found out that she was only interested in marrying his son for his money. Osvaldo is outraged by his father’s
accusation and refuses to believe him.
Almost in tears, he asks Nora if what his father is saying is true. Nora straightens up and in a flat voice she
tells him it is true.

7/12/04] , Can Someone Tell Me What Happened? Author: Isabel Hanze (---) Date:

Yesterday, it opens when Osvaldo's father announces that his son will not marry Nora because she was involved in a scandal and was marrying Osvaldo for his money. Osvaldo throws a childish fit and confronts Nora about this. She admits the truth to him and his father asks for the ring back. Alexadra asks everyone to kindly leave. She proceeds to throw her drink and yell at Nora for being so truthful. She slaps her and tells her now no one is going to want to marry her after her truthful confession to Osvaldo. (I have to say even Isaura felt a little sorry for Nora.) Nora says she was just trying to be honest and that she's prepared to leave the house. But Tia says that she has invested too much time on her and she will live in the house as a servant.
Later that evening, Tia calls her lawyer to say she wants to make changes to her will.
They show Arturo outside the balcony thinking that he wants to talk to Nora and tell her that she shouldn't marry for money. And that he knows she still loves him. He gets a call telling him that his grandpa is in critical condition at the hospital.
(The grandpa ends up in the hospital due to Juan Salvador's confession about causing the plane crash. Sorry that was also in the beginning of the novela.)
To sum up the hospital scene, Arturo prays for his grandpa to get better, Mirta and Diego show up to comfort him. He tells Diego that Nora is going to marry for money(to show that he's still thinking about her while his grandpa is dying.)
Paulina shows up to ask about the grandpa and older lady(the one who calls Arturo everytime there's an emergency, sorry forgot her name) sends her home before she gets to meet the "nieto", Arturo.
Isaura talks to Casilda and asks her if she would like to see her Tia die. If she did, then she would help her. Casilda agrees.
Back at the house, Tia is thinking how to get rid of Isaura, so she places a piece of strong thread across the stairs to try and make her fall. So Tia starts calling Isaura to come down.
Meanwhile, Isaura is putting some poison into an apple.
However, at the same time, Leo shows up to talk to Nora and Casilda sees him through the window. So Casilda comes running down the stairs and ends up falling on top of Leo. Nora screams , Tia comes out of hiding...it was a great scene. They discover the string and wonder how it got there. Tia sends leo home. She tells Nora that she is not allowed to speak to Leo or any other visitors anymore since she is a servant now. She sends her back to work. Casilda goes to her room. and Isaura examines the string and knows that Tia was trying to kill her. She asks Tia what she was calling her for and why the string might have been there. Tia says she doesn't remember after all the comotion and she has no idea how the string got there.
Casilda gets a call reminding her of a costume party she has to attend. Isaura tells her she's going as a witch and she has to do everything Isaura tells her.
So Isaura gets Casilda to put the poisoned apple in Tia room. While Tia is distracted by Casilda's costume, continuously making fun of Casilda because it's so perfect on her, Tia asks Casilda to get her an apple. She gets the bad one and hands it to her. Isaura takes a picture of this "handing of the apple" (possibly to use at blackmail later, who knows.)
A little later, when Tia is starting to feel ill, Isaura comes in and taunts her (Casilda is listening outside). Isaura tells her that isn't it ironic that her own daughter gave her the apple. At that point Casilda runs in and questions what she said. Isaura tells her the truth. Casilda asks Tia why she has lied to her. Tia says she ruined her life...and tells her now she's gotten her revenge by killing her own mother. She says she curses Casilda and dies. (It was a good scene, I felt sorry for Casilda who was crying the whole time. She actually looked sorry.)
Meanwhile, the Abuelo ends up dying then coming back to life.
On a side note, I forgot that Nora runs into Leo outside and tells him that she doesn't love him and to go live his life.
She runs into Alfredo and punches him in the eye. (That was hysterical) He was so shocked and she was laughing as she walked off.
Later, Juan Carlos calls Alfredo telling him that the record company wants to see him and he has to look presentable..blah blah, meanwhile Alfredo has a nasty black eye from Nora...ha ha priceless.
I hope this helps. I tried to get the most important scenes.
FYI, if anyone has satellite TV, there is west coast Univision showing at 12am if you miss the 9pm showing. I have DISH Network and the channel is 828 for west coast.

It opens with Arturo at his Abuelo's bedside. He asks him who was the person with him when he had his heart attack. Abuelo tells him it was Juan Salvador asking him for forgiveness for causing the plane crash.
Casilda and Isaura are talking about the death of Tia with Isaura reminding Casilda that it was she who killed her by giving her the apple. So she better remember that they are both in this together. Casilda says that she wouldn’t have killed her if she had known it was her own mother. (You could tell she was feeling guilty and sorry for the whole thing.) Isaura reminds her of how Tia used to mistreat her and that now she will be rich to marry Leo. Nora walks in to this scene and asks what’s going on. Isaura quickly turns on her sad face and tells her that Tia is dead. She can’t believe it until she goes in and sees her for herself.
They show Pilar, Casilda, Isaura, Nora and Leo all in black crying in the living room. Isaura tells everyone that when they went to check on Tia they found her on the floor. She tells them that it must have been a heart attack. Tia had been complaining about a pain in her chest but didn’t want anyone to call the doctor. (Isaura was really convincing…even I almost believed her…ha ha.) Luckily, Pilar agrees with the story and confirms that Tia didn’t like doctors and she just liked to stay in her room until she felt better. (Lucky Isaura..) Isaura even went so far as to say that maybe the whole episode with Nora the night before may have caused her stress. (Poor Nora, trying to blame her for everything.) Even Casilda joins in and blames Nora. Leo of course comes to her defense saying that everyone is under a lot of stress and no one should be placing blame on anyone. Casilda of course agrees and asks Nora to forgive her. (Boy, Casilda really will do anything for Leo.) Casilda also mentions that Tia always wanted to be cremated. Leo says that he will take care of everything.
Back at work, Paulina is in Juan Carlos office talking to him and he’s just staring at her dumbfounded. She asks him if he’s listening to her and he says that he just realized that she was not only intelligent but also very pretty. She says that no one has ever said she was pretty before. Then Jessica calls him and tells him that she’s back and they have a conversation pending. He sends her flowers as usual. Paulina hears this and asks if he sends flowers to all his dates. He laughs it off and says that they should get back to work. She agrees.
Later we see him thinking about her and he asks himself why he’s always thinking about her. (Could be love…)
Back at the hospital, the nurse tells Arturo that his Abuelo is strong and will probably be better off at home. She will send him home soon. Juan Salvador sneaks into Abuelo’s room and tells him that he is sorry for causing his attack. Abuelo tells him about Arturo being a pilot like his dad and not being able to get a job with an airline because of his father’s reputation. So Juan tells Abuelo that he is going to clear Arturo Sr.’s good name by telling the truth. Abuelo says that he forgives him and hopes that Arturo will find the strength to forgive him too.
Isaura reminds Casilda that soon she will have millions. Casilda asks her how long has she known about Tia being her mom. Isaura tells her since she went to Mexico City with Joaquin. She found some of Tia’s letters. Casilda asks to see them but Isaura lies and tells her she burnt them. Casilda then asks who her father was and Isaura again lies and tells her that the letters didn’t say. (I wonder why she’s lying…..)
Juan Salvador writes a letter with the details of the accident and mails it. He ends up in the hospital where Arturo shows up and tells him that he forgives him. Juan Salvador tells Arturo that he hopes it’s not too late to fix what he did.
Paulina goes to visit the Abuelo at the hospital and just misses Arturo. By coincidence, Renata ends up going to the pencion to pick something up for Mikaila(Juan Carlos’ secretary) and sees Arturo entering the pencion. She later tells Paulina, who gets upset about it. They wonder if maybe he was looking for a room. However, Paulina declares that she got the last room in the pencion. (I think Paulina protests too much….hint hint, but I’m surprised that Renata hasn’t defended Arturo since she’s supposed to be his friend.)
Mirta and Diego are talking and she tells him that she’s in love with Arturo. Diego asks her how he feels. She tells him that Arturo has been honest with her about how he feels. She knows he loves Nora, but she’s living in the moment and she’s very happy. She also tells him that she’s not going back to NY, not because of Arturo but because of her mom. She doesn’t want to leave her alone now that she is getting help for herself.
Later she asks Diego to tell her about Nora. He tells her right away that she’s beautiful. She is not surprised but wants to know what she has that Arturo fell in love with her. He tells her that he thinks she made herself look defenseless(can’t think of another word) to trap Arturo and gain his sympathy. Mirta says it hurts her to think of Arturo loving someone else. Diego tells her that he thinks Nora is a bad person and doesn’t really love Arturo. Mirta thinks it’s sad to have a love that is not reciprocated. Diego tells her that it won’t matter because Nora will be married soon.
Alfredo calls Juan Carlos to forgive him for not presenting himself to the record company, but he was ready to see them now. Juan Carlos informs him that they got someone else.
Casilda is in her room talking to herself in the mirror feeling sad because she killed her mom yet glad because she never acknowledged her and now she would be rich to marry Leo. (This is a great scene where she goes back and forth between being guilty/sad and being happy. It was a great performance.) The lawyer arrives at Tia’s to read the will and Pilar and Leo leave to give them privacy. Isaura goes to look for Casilda for the reading of the will. They all sit at the table and the lawyer says that Tia must have sensed that she was going to die because she called him the night before to make some changes. Casilda and Isaura are in shock. The lawyer reads the will and Tia leaves Nora her mother’s sewing machine and the rest is Casilda’s. (I don’t get it..what was the big change the sewing machine??? Big disappointment.)
Back at Diego’s house, he’s talking with his mom and sister when his dad arrives. He goes to hug him and the dad rejects him. (wow big surprise..not).
Later they show Arturo barging into Felipe’s office to reproach him for how he’s treating his kids. (I didn’t quite get this part…how did Arturo even know what happened with Diego??..) Anyway, Felipe basically tells him that he’s a bad influence on his kids and to mind his own business. Ana Maria comes in the middle of this conversation and listens to it outside the office door.
Back at Tia’s, Casilda is happy because she is now a millionaire and can buy Leo. Nora talks to her mom’s picture and tells her that all she needs is her sewing machine and her mom’s blessing to move forward with her life. (Yeah, OK Nora, I think you’ll need a little more than that…)
Isaura asks Nora if she is sad that Tia didn’t leave her anything. She says no that the sewing machine is enough for her. She hadn’t expected anything from her anyway. She tells Isaura that she feels her Tia’s death is a little strange. What with the dead cat, the string on the stairway and the fact that Tia had never been sick before. She finds it strange and that they should request an autopsy before they cremate her. She feels so strongly that she wants to inform the police to investigate. Isaura is stunned into silence. (A first for her..ha ha)
Casilda calls Leo and tells him she needs to speak to him right away.
Arturo is with Mirta and tells her that he spoke with her father. She tells him that he wasted his time. (No kidding)
Paulina, Renata and Juan Carlos congratulate Roberto for getting a contract with the record company. (Turns out he went instead of Alfredo..yeah)
While Paulina is ironing in her room at home, she begins thinking about Arturo’s kiss and smiling, she scolds herself for thinking about him. At this point, Mirta is dropping Arturo off at the pencion and he realizes he forgot his keys. So he rings the doorbell and Paulina opens the door only to yell at him and shut it in his face. (That was funny…and that’s how it ends.)
I hope you enjoy my commentaries…I’ve become addicted to this novela and can’t stop watching.
Claudia since you are on the West Coast, you get it earlier rather than later. I live in NJ but will be off to Florida soon. Right now, I'm taping the novela every day, but I'm afraid I'm going to miss some episodes when I move in Aug.
If you miss some episodes you can also click on the Univision foro, but you have to read in Spanish. I use it to jog my memory. They don’t have as much detail but they try to capture every scene.
Enjoy!!

AEMP –
July 14th [USA, 7/14/04]
from
Univision forum’s johanna119: RESUMEN: Miercoles 14 de Julio
Outside the pension, Arturo realizes he does not have his
keys and rings the doorbell. In her
room, Paulina thinks about Arturo when she hears someone persistently ring the
doorbell. Since no one seems to be
answering the door, she rushes downstairs to open the gate. When she realizes that it is Arturo she
starts yelling at him to find another place to rent a room because that pension
is full. Arturo tries to tell her that
he lives there, but her shouting drowns him out and she manages to close the
door in his face. Behind the closed
door, Paulina cannot believe her bad luck, while Arturo bangs on the door.
Isaura tells
Casilda that Nora wants to investigate her aunt’s death. They decide on a plan to discourage Nora
from following through with her investigation.
Paulina and Arturo
are in the living room arguing when Diana and Micaela walk in. Arturo tells them that Paulina did not want
to let him in and they start to laugh.
Paulina insists that he should leave because there are no more rooms
available. Micaela tells her that he
lives there and is Clemente’s grandson.
Paulina is taken aback and tells them she cannot leave because she has
paid the month in advance. Diana and
Micaela make fun of her attitude and she walks away annoyed.
Leonardo arrives
at the Madrigal house and asks Casilda why she called him. She asks him if he recognizes the broach she
is wearing. He says it is her aunts and
she corrects him by telling him that it is now hers because she is Alejandra’s
sole heir. Now that she has all of the
money she would like to buy him and asks him for a kiss.
In his room,
Arturo thinks about Paulina and the kiss he gave her.
Leonardo tells Casilda
he was not expecting this and that they should discuss this at a later
time. She tells him that she has been
in love with him for a long time. He
leaves and she cries when she realizes that he will not even accept her with
her money. She remembers when her
Godmother would tell her to look at herself in the mirror and accept that she
is too ugly to ever marry.
Gertrudis tells
Alfredo and Heriberto about Alejandra’s death and that it was probably Nora’s
fault for the scandal she caused. She
tells them that Alejandra did not leave her anything and left her in the
street, because she left everything to Casilda.
Isaura and Nora
return to the house from church to find Casilda crying desperately. She tells Isaura that Leonardo refused to
marry her even though she is now rich.
Alone, Leonardo
thinks about Casilda’s proposal and laughs as he contemplates what to do.
Isaura tells Nora
that she should forget the idea of investigating Alejandra’s death because she
probably had a heart condition. She
supports this by telling her that Casilda had accompanied her aunt to the
cardiologist in the past. The doctor
had also told her to avoid any upsetting situations, which could cause her to
have a heart attack. She hints at the
possibility of the ‘heart attack’ being caused by Nora’s recent scandal. Shortly afterwards, Pilar arrives at the
house and offers Nora a permanent position as a model. She declines the modeling job, but would
like a job as a seamstress. Isaura and
Casilda convince her to accept the job.
Paulina tells
Renata that Arturo is Clemente’s grandson and that they are now living in the
same house. Diego arrives and Renata
tells him the story, he tells them that life can be funny that way.
Pilar shows Nora
the clothes for the modeling show.
Diego asks Renata
if she would consider dating him, but she turns him down. She only sees him as
a good friend.
Heriberto calls
the Madrigal house and Casilda answers the phone. He nervously asks for Isaura or Nora and refuses to identify himself
or leave a message.
Ana Maria meets
Arturo for lunch to discuss his intentions with Mirta. She asks him to please be sincere with her
because they are going through some difficult family issues.
Leonardo visits
Casilda and tells her that after some careful consideration, he will accept her
proposal. She becomes ecstatic and
wants to set the date right away. He
tells her not to rush things because her aunt just died, while Isaura listens
from the next room. He continues by
telling her that he would like her to sign a prenuptial agreement and she
quickly agrees. Isaura does not like
the sound of that idea.
The modeling show
begins and everyone applauds Nora. She
is feeling good until she sees Herbierto and rushes off the runway. Later she explains to Pilar her reasons for
leaving.
Leonardo tells
Gisela and Evaristo that he will marry Casilda because she is Alejandra’s sole
heir.
Arturo goes to the
hospital to visit his grandfather and tells him about the conversation he just
had with Ana Maria. Clemente tells him
to think this through before making a decision.
Nora cries as she
remembers the day she met Arturo and all of the times she has seen him. She is sad because if he would have loved
her things would be different and her recent suffering would not have taken
place.
At Leonardo’s
apartment, Gisela argues with him about his decision to marry Casilda. He tells her that he will not change his
mind.
Ana Maria cries
and is content she spoke to Arturo about Mirta’s happiness.
Evaristo arrives
at the Madrigal house and gives his condolences to Nora and offers her
support. She asks for her money back,
but he tells her it will not be possible because it has been invested
long-term. He does offer to loan her
money, but before she is able to answer, Isaura enters and sends her for
napkins. In the meantime, Isaura talks
to him and he offers her a check but not to tell Nora.
Arturo arrives at his house with Mirta and
tells her he has something important to tell her. She playfully jokes about his serious demeanor, but he turns and
tells her that he is not in love with her.

Resumen viernes 16/7/04 de Amarte es mi pecado
Arturo encounters Nora at the
fountain. He asks her if it is true
that she is marrying only for interest.
She says yes, that her love is driven only by money. Arturo says that he’d hoped to hear
something different. She asks that he
not bother her again. They separate as
she weeps.
Nora arrives and tells Isaura what has
happened. She regrets what she said to
Arturo. Isaura tells her that Arturo
will betray her. She should be seeking
revenge. Nora says that she wants
nothing more to do with men. Isaura
suggests that she needs a protector.
Nora says no, she won’t sell herself.
She does not want a lover.
Arturo and Diego discuss Arturo’s feelings
about Mirta and how she has told him the truth.
Nora alters Casilda’s outfit. Isaura arrives and shows her the photo she
took of Casilda delivering the poison apple to Alejandra (dressed as Sleeping
Beauty).
Pilar, Betina and Gisela talk. Pilar tells the others how Alejandra was
compelling Nora to marry a rich man.
Nora thinks about Arturo and regrets having
lied to him.
Silvero and Rafael talk. Rafa tells his father that Renata is not for
him.
Julian, Renata’s father, tells her that he
spoke with Cathy, his ex-wife, who said that Renata was in love. “Is it Diego?” he asks. Rafael arrives and greets them.
Silverio does to say goodbye to the rooming
house group. He is especially warm to
Codavonga.
Casilda doesn’t like the alterations that
Nora has made in her clothes. Casilda
yells at Nora to go to Pilar’s and find some clothes that she will like.
Rafa says goodbye to Paulina. He tells her that he is returning to
Morelia. Julian invites him to join
Julian, Paulina and Renata for a meal.
At the table, Renata and Rafa look at each other and smile discretely. Renata tells her father that she isn’t in
love with Diego but could become interested in him.
Casilda looks at the photo of her
delivering the poisonous apple to Alejandra.
She sees that Isaura is watching her.
Casilda asks: “Why did you bring
this to me?”
Isaura: “So you won’t forget that you, Casilda,
killed Alejandra.”
Casilda responds that now she has money and
she gives the orders. Isaura responds
that money and orders are two different things! Casilda says that they are the same and that she now occupies the
place of her m…. Isaura finishes the
sentence, MOTHER. She adds that Casilda
shouldn’t mess with her or she will tell everyone that Alejandra was her
mother.
Casilda asks: “Who will you tell?
Leonardo? Gisela? Betina?
Your friends in Morelia’s high society?
Who’s going to believe you?”
She continues in the high-handed way of Alejandra (which she has adopted
exactly) that Isaura is a poor nothing.
“Put the
photo back where it came from. And you
dirtied the glass. Clean it!”
Isaura tells her not to fight with an
ally. With big fake tears she tells
Casilda that she loves her above all others, like a daughter. Casilda says she is going to sleep in her
godmother’s room. When she leaves
Isaura smiles and says to herself that Casilda is an idiot.
Nora escapes to the post office where
Arturo is. She tells Arturo that she
lied and that she is not going to marry.
Arturo says that he knew that.
They agree to have coffee and to talk further. Later Nora tells Arturo that her aunt obliged her to fulfill her
wishes and thanks Arturo for listening.
She hopes he will be happy with his girlfriend. He tells her that he doesn’t have a
girlfriend.
Pilar invites Nora to model in her fashion
show.
Sergio proposes a party to launch the new
magazine. Paulina starts to talk but
then stops. Later in the office Juan
Carlos asks Paulina what she wanted to say.
She says that she thinks a more informal, fresher launch would be
preferable. He agrees and calls for Sergio.
Sergio later asks Paulina if she is
contradicting his authority. He
yells. She says that she wants only to
see the magazine progress.
Nora is ready to walk down the stairway as
part of the fashion show. Casilda and

praise her. She thanks them and says
that she doesn’t believe they mean it.

As Nora descends, Gertrudis yells that Nora wanted to seduce her husband and
Alfredo. She slaps Nora, who runs away.
Nora cries. She knocks on Arturo’s hotel room door. She tells him that she can’t take it any more. She can’t understand why people abuse her. She wants to die. Why can’t she live in peace? She and Arturo kiss passionately. One thing leads to another and they make love.

diosaelectrica: RESUMEN LUNES 7/19/04
REDACTADO POR KARIFUL1*
Arturo and Nora are in his hotel room. They’ve made love. Nora says that she feels very happy. She has been sexually intimate for the first time, not by
obligation but with the man she will love forever. Arturo asks her if she will regret it later. She says, “No, never.” Later he says that like her he trembles when
he is close to her. “When I embrace
you, I feel that you are part of me, “says Arturo. He swears to Nora that he will not leave her and no one will ever
harm her again.
At the fashion show, Betina, Gisela and
Gertrudis talk. Gertrudis accepts an
invitation to eat at the home of Gisela and Evaristo. Betina asks Gertrudis about Alfredo. She says that he was the first of Nora’s victims and for this he
suffered greatly. Gisela asks about her
relationship with Alfredo and Gertrudis says that she loves him very much and
that he is like her son. She continues,
telling them that although Heriberto would deny it, Nora nearly killed him
because he didn’t want to give her money.
Nora has come to Morelia because she was driven out of town.
In Arturo’s room, he admits that he
suffered very much when Nora didn’t want to see him and he didn’t understand
why she wouldn’t explain. Nora tells
him that she is in part responsible because of her promise to her father and
the fact that she didn’t want to share her plans with her aunt. She feels that Arturo was also partly
responsible because he didn’t say anything about his girlfriend in Mexico at
the start. Arturo is disconcerted and
says that the relationship with Mirta ended and that he was seeing no one when
he met Nora. Finally she says that it
was Diego who told her that Arturo had a girlfriend in Mexico who he was going
to marry. It was the day when she came
to the hotel looking for Arturo. Arturo
becomes angry and says that this was a lie.
Diego knew that he never was in love with Mirta.
After the fashion show, Casilda asks Isaura
if Nora really had anything to do with Heriberto. Isaura answers: “No, because she refused to accept
him.” So, says Casilda, this is why he
persists, why he came here and why we were masked. Isaura laughs and says, “Don’t complain. You wanted it.” Isaura continues that it was worth it for the experience. Casilda
laughs and agrees.
Back at the hotel Arturo asks Nora why
Diego saw her kissing Leonardo. She
answers that it was to avenge Arturo’s actions. Arturo answers that Diego knew very well that he didn’t have a
girlfriend when they met, that Mirta came afterwards, and that the relationship
with Mirta has ended. He says that he
will demand an explanation from Diego immediately. Nora makes excuses for Diego, saying that he was trying to
protect Arturo from Nora given the many bad rumors about her. Arturo and Nora agree that no one will
separate them again.
At the rooming house, Diana and Paulina
talk. Diana says that now that the
relationship with Mirta has ended, she will look for Arturo. Paulina reminds Diana that Arturo doesn’t
love her and that anyway, she wouldn’t seek him out if he were the last man on
earth.
Arturo accompanies Nora to her house and
kisses her goodnight. She enters the house
smiling. Casilda and Isaura are
bothered by her smile. They ask her how
she feels after what happened at the fashion show. She says she feels fine and goes upstairs to bed.
In her bedroom Nora thinks, “I love you, I
love you ….” She looks at the photo of
her father and says: “I won’t complete
my promise because I’m going to marry Arturo.
Good night.” She turns around
the photo and goes to bed. Isaura
enters the room and asks what happened.
Nora says that it doesn’t matter, that life is short and she’s going to
enjoy it.
At the hotel Diego admits to Arturo that
what he did was bad, but he saw Leonardo and Nora kissing. Arturo interrupts and yells that her action
with Leonardo was because of the lie Diego told. Arturo grabs Diego and shakes him. Diego moves away and warns Arturo not to touch him again. Then Diego yells not to believe in Nora,
that kissing Leonardo out of jealousy was infantile. For that alone, Diego claims that he was justified in lying.
Arturo yells at Diego, “Shut up!
Shut up!” Diego responds that
his intentions were the best as his friend.
Arturo replies, “No, Diego. You
are not my friend. A friend doesn’t
lie.” With that Arturo turns and
leaves.
At the magazine office, Juan Carlos
announces at the staff meeting that he has chosen a new name for the new
magazine. It’s the name that Paulina
suggested. Sergio is visibly
annoyed. Later Juan Carlos invites
Paulina to have lunch and she accepts.
Nora receives a bouquet of flowers with a
note, “From Arturo.”
Juan Carlos and Paulina have lunch. A bouquet of flowers arrives from Juan
Carlos.
At Leonardo’s apartment, Gisela and
Leonardo argue about Casilda. Casilda
and Isaura arrive and knock at the door.
Gisela hides behind the bedroom door and listens.
Michaela tells Paulina that Juan Carlos
sends flowers only to the women that interest him.
Arturo, wearing his uniform, knocks at
Nora’s door. She opens the door and
they kiss.
Leonardo asks Isaura that she leave his
apartment. Casilda stays and they argue
about the marriage contract. Leonardo
says that no one should meddle in his business and that he has finished with
the contract. He tells Casilda to read
the contract. There are two important
conditions. She reads the contract.
At the rooming house, Diana and Michaela
tease Paulina about the bouquet. She
arranges the bouquet in the living room.
Juan Carlos knocks at the door and comes in. The women run up the stairway and look at Paulina and Juan
Carlos.
Casilda has read the two conditions: 1) there will be only a civil wedding; 2)
there will be no sexual intimacy.
Casilda asks for an explanation.
She wants to be his. Gisela,
behind the door, laughs. Leonardo tells
Casilda: “Accept, or we won’t marry.”
At Nora’s, Arturo tells her how he
challenged Diego’s explanation for the lie.
Diego said that he was trying to protect Arturo. Nora is not surprised, saying that her
infamy has followed her. He says that
it doesn’t matter, that he seeks the truth in her eyes. They kiss and Arturo tells her that there is
something important he has to say. He’s
very nervous and pulls at the collar of his shirt. Then he falls to his knees and proposes to Nora: “Will you marry
me?” She is speechless at first. He looks worried. But she accepts and they kiss.
Arturo swears that they will be happy and that he will protect her
forever.
Casilda wants to know what she gains if
there is no intimacy. Leonardo suggests
that no one will say that she is an old maid.
She says that she wants children.
He responds that with science, intimacy is not necessary for
children. She leaves and Gisela laughs
very hard.
At the rooming house, Paulina and Juan
Carlos chat while having coffee. He
seems uncomfortable. Paulina is not
bothered by this. He leaves.
At his apartment, Gisela says that she
likes the contract. She and Leonardo go
to bed.
At a restaurant, Casilda and Isaura wonder
whether Heriberto told Leonardo what happened between Casilda and
Heriberto. Perhaps for this reason
Leonardo wants no intimacy with Casilda.
Isaura offers to talk with Heriberto and Casilda accepts the offer.
Nora is at the cemetery, talking with her
late father about Arturo again.
At the rooming house, Paulina answers the
phone and it’s Arturo. She looks for
Don Clemente, but he is resting.
At her house, Mirta and her mother argue
about the conversation that Ana Maria
had with Arturo. Ana Maria says that she was acting as a
mother, trying to insure her daughter’s happiness.
Paulina
returns to Arturo on the phone and says that everyone in the office
knows that his relationship with Mirta has ended. He responds: “I suppose that you think that she is better off
without me.” She answers, “You said it,
not me.” They hang up.
At Heriberto’s office, Isaura warns him
that Casilda wants money to keep her from saying anything to Gertrudis about
their encounters. He gives Isaura some
money.
Nora goes to Pilar’s office and tells her
about the wedding. Pilar offers to make
a wedding dress for her.
Casilda and Isaura are at home. Isaura warns Casilda that Heriberto wants
money to stay quiet. Casilda goes to
look for money for Isaura to give to Heriberto. Later, at dinner, Casilda feels poorly. Isaura wonders if this is caused by Leonardo. She responds that perhaps she won’t marry
Leonardo and leaves. Isaura tells Nora
that Leonardo is too ambitious.
Gisela and Evaristo have a dinner
party. Leonardo arrives. He and Heriberto greet each other as those
it were the first time they’d met.
Gertrudis gets drunk and runs on about all that happened in
Pátzcuaro. Everyone is
embarrassed. Leonardo gets angry and
leaves. Giesela follows him into the street
where Leonardo admits that he is in love with Nora and can’t abide Gisela’s
guests.
At his office, Don Felipe hands some
documents to Julian and asks if they can be partners in the big hotel, because
if not, Don Felipe cannot sustain the business. It’s in bankruptcy.
Arturo comes to Nora’s bedroom by the
balcony. The kiss and make love again
by the light of candles. He tells Nora
that being with her is marvelous. They
continue to make love.
Meanwhile Heriberto and Evariso discuss
“the truth” about Nora. Heriberto warns
him that Isaura and Nora want to get money out of both him and Evaristo. Evaristo admits that Nora is an obsession
now. Heriberto warns him: “Be careful.”
Mirta comes to Arturo’s hotel room. She kisses him.
Nora is at home in her bedroom dreaming of
her father. He yells that she has let
him down. She wakes up frightened.
The door bell sounds at Leonardo’s
apartment. It is Casilda dressed in an
overcoat. It’s late and Leonardo is
disturbed. She declares that she
accepts the contract. But she takes off
the coat and is naked. She says: “Make me your own.”

In Pilar's office she and Nora are discussing the fact that Nora is spending all this money for her wedding dress and accessories without telling Arturo. Nora says no problem cause it's a surprise. Then Pilar questions the sense in Nora being so tied to one man but she answers that she knows he loves her just as much as she loves him. So she's not worried. -- At Paulina's house her dad set the kitchen on fire with another experiment and Arturo arrives just in time to save them due to the fact he's delivering an important package for Rafa from the U.S. (Cathy).--Back at Pilar's Nora is looking at her self in the mirror in her wedding dress when Leo shows up and he asks her will she be modeling that wedding dress. Nora looks up and says happyily, no. She's getting married to Arturo. Leo is shaken and upset. He says he figures then everything was due to all sorts of misunderstandings apparently. Nora explains that she only kissed him in the doorway that day because she saw Diego and wanted him to see them so he'd tell Arturo and make Arturo jealous. She says she tried to explain why she did what she did but Leonardo kept talking and wouldn't let her say a word! He insists he still loves her but she says she's sorry. Leo is upset and says well he still has Casilda's money to console him. Nora says don't talk like that because it makes her feel bad and to remember money isn't everything. He snickers back: You remember once I told you I'd give up all these plans to marry an heiress if I could marry you and I'd take you far away from all this because I loved you so much, but you rejected me. At that point Pilar comes in and Leo tells Nora he's really happy for her and then leaves. Outside he stops and is crying tears of frustration and pain.
Back in M.C. at the boarding
house Abuelo and Paulina are talking about Juan Carlos who just left there. He
says he's really impressed with her new boss and he's probably not only
successful but has lots of women interested in him. She says despite all that
he's really a lonely man down deep. --Back in Morelia at her house Rafa returns
as Arturo and the other two come out of the kitchen. They hide the accident
from him and wait for him to open the package which apparently has the
documents needed to expedite exports of the artist works to the U.S. --At the
boarding house in Diana's room she asks Paulina how she feels about Juan C. and
Paulina says he's great but would never look at someone like here to date
seriously. Then she sees Diana's photo of her and Art at the club the night of
the accident. They discuss the accident and how polite and attentive he was to
Diana all through her recovery. She thinks Paulina's stupid to keep hating him.
So Paulina tells her about the time he kissed her in the restaurant just to
make this girl, Nora, that she sort of knew, jealous. Paulina calls him a
"patán. --Back at Nora's she and Arturo are kissing on the balcony and he
says it's going to be the last time he comes in that way because as soon as
Casilda's married he's coming back to formalize their engagement with Casilda
and Isaura. They go inside her bedroom and Nora stops and looks at her dad's
photo and says it's almost as if he's demanding from the picture that she
comply with her oath to him. She explains that she feels guilty for causing his
death the same day he found out she was going to marry Alfredo instead. Arturo
tells her that was a ridiculous pledge to make and that she's not to blame for
his death or anythin. So Nora clings to him and cries tears of relief....--
Meanwhile Leo's having really bad second thoughts about going through with this
wedding with Casilda. He finally tells himself he's gonna be a rich man so deal
with it and move on. --Back in Abuelo's bedroom he and Arturo are discussing
his plans to marry Nora and Abuelo gets really upset. He says she shot a man
for money and you said she deceived you with all those men you saw her kissing
and OMG, how could you? Arturo answers it was all due to a big misunderstanding
stemming from that lie Diego told her to separate the two of them. All of it
was to make him jealous. If he met her he'd realize what a great person she
really was. --Back at Nora's she's on her way to Pilar's and to go shopping for
the wedding when Isaura stops her and ask why's shes so unusually happy and
excited. Nora tells her "all in good time" and leaves. --Back in
Abuelo's room he confesses his part in asking Diego to help him get rid of
Nora. He asks to be forgiven and unusually calm, Arturo does! y punto! Abuelo
says great and he's now all for the wedding if Nora is all that he says she is.
--Casilda's looking for jewelry for her wedding dress and starts talking to
herself like she was both Madrina and herself. Juan Carlos leaves a folder for
Paulina and asks to use the phone in the living room cause his cell is dead.
While he's waiting he invites Arturo to the launch party for the new magazine,
but Arturo says he probably can't because of a flight the next day. --Then
Isaura overhears Casilda talking to herself but Casilda denies it. --Back at
the Pension Diana flirts with Arturo and asks if he and Mirta really are
finished and he smiles back yes, but he got back with the girl in Morelia,
Nora, and is getting married to her now. So Diana goes back to her room and
angrily tears up the photo of the two of them and swears she's going to go off
with the first man who looks at her.
2nd Half of Thurs. July 22nd(original by keriful1 in
Univision forum )- translation by Jardinera654
Gertrudiz and Alfredo come back to their
suite after shopping. They plan to
attend the launch party at the magazine’s offices, and to do it without invitations.
–Juan Carlos is on the phone ordering something to arrive as a surprise. –At the boarding house, Arturo hands over
Paulina’s file from Juan Carlos and mentions that he’s been invited to their
launch party but can’t come due to a preplanned flight. –Nora receives a call
from Arturo later to tell her that in the morning, he’s coming to formalize their engagement with her stepmother and
that he’s also bringing his grandfather to help smooth things over. He tells her not to stop thinking about him and
she tells him the same. Nora thinks
about how she’s spent all her winning now for her wedding and that it was
totally worth it.
In the courtyard at the magazine offices
the guests are arriving and chatting with each other. Alfredo and Gertrudis are there.
Jessica tries to get Juan Carlos to share the weekend with her up in
N.Y. but he tells her he’s busy and cannot promise her anything. She leaves thinking he’ll try to show up and
he’s thinking about Paulina. Then
Arturo arrives and seeks out Mirta.
Leonardo arrives at Casilda’s and tells
Nora that he simply cannot go on with the wedding. He loves her and not Casilda. –At the launch party, Juan Carlos
names Paulina as the editor. Sergio
chokes on his drink and spills it he’s so angry and envious at Paulina’s being
chosen. Paulina is surprised as well as
everyone else. –Nora tries to tell Leonardo that he must marry Casilda because
he has no hope of anything between the two of them. She’s in love with Arturo.
Just then Casilda comes running in and Leonardo abruptly leaves. Casilda is angry and jealous of Nora. She stomps out of the room. –Paulina chats with her family that Juan
Carlos had sent plane tickets to in order to surprise Paulina. Before leaving, Rafa and Renata run into
each other and again he is tongue tied and cannot tell her what he really is
feeling for her. –Arturo tells Mirta
that she ought to probably hear it from him first that he’s definitely getting
married to Nora. She tells him
congratulations and that even though it still hurts her she is happy for him.
While Nora serves dinner to Casilda, for
spite Casilda tells her that she suspects it really hurts her that she’ll never
get married now since nobody would marry spoiled good like her. Nora stays quiet and smiles, thinking, “If
you only knew.” --At the party Sergio
is grumbling to Diana about Paulina’s being chosen editor when she’s so totally
inexperienced compared to him. Arturo
finds Diego there and tells him that his grandfather admitted his part in their
trying to separate him from Nora. He
thanks Diego for trying not to involve his grandfather. However,
Diego turns his back on his friend and leaves. Then Arturo and Paulina run into each other and he gives her
congratulations from the boarders as well as himself. Juan Carlos appears just then and the three chat about her big
surprise. Afterward, Arturo leaves.
–Sergio and Diana go to a bar and then to his apartment. They are both tipsy and he begins to rape
her. –Juan Carlos and Paulina leave and
spend the rest of the day at the park.
At Don Clemente’s Arturo and he discuss the
launch party and Paulina’s success.
Clemente worries that she’s not home yet and he says she was with her
boss. He mentions how well she and her
boss get along. –Back at Mirta and Diego’s they are talking over their feelings
at Arturo’s breaking up with her and now marrying Nora. Mirta tells him that it wasn’t his
fault. She had misunderstood him and Arturo
was always respectful of her and her feelings.
She asks her brother not to be bitter.
Then Renata enters and Mirta leaves. Diego asks her what she feels for
him and she warns him that she still doesn’t feel anything but friendship
towards him. He tells her he’ll wait
and she can take as much time as she needs.
In Pilar’s shop, Casilda is preparing for
her wedding night. Pilar comes in and
helps her fix her hair and make up.
When Pilar is done Casilda has been transformed. Her hair is short and styled, she has her
face made up nicely, and she’s wearing a very elegant, tasteful and flattering
wedding dress. Pilar assures Casilda that Alejandra had only treated her
strictly to make sure she became a strongly confident woman. She should not worry about Leonardo.
At the wedding later, Isaura announces
loudly that the bride is coming. Nora,
is running a little late, and while
Casilda is standing on the staircase her high heels clack upstairs as she
starts to come down the staircase behind Casilda, smiling broadly. The guests all forget Casilda for the
moment, Casilda’s great moment, and all
eyes look up at Nora. Nora is
breathtakingly elegant, imposing, and captivating in her raspberry silk gown
(the same gown that matched Paulina’s).
Casilda wakes herself up, grabs Leonardo
and drags him toward the judge. –In the
doorway of the boarding house, Juan Carlos and Paulina say good night and kiss
for the first time. –At their wedding
the judge asks Casilda if she accepts Leonardo and she quickly answers yes, but
when the judge asks Leonardo if he accepts Casilda to be his wife he remains
quiet. He cannot find the words to
answer. He looks at Casilda and then at
Nora. She shakes her head affirmatively
to him but he still doesn’t respond.
All the guests are watching Nora but neither Leonardo or Casilda. Leonardo cannot answer the judge! ==END==

Friday, July 23rd:
Leo finally finds his voice and says yes to the judge at the wedding, then Betina gets the guests shouting BESO! Beso! Leo rudely gives Casilda only a cursory peck on the forehead. A bit later he's out on the balcony for air and Gisela finds him and they start kissing! Betina finds them and Leo runs off embarrased and Gisela says to her shocked friend, "Keep this quiet; the wedding's all a rotten sham anyway and everyone knows it." Betina wants a bribe though to insure that she won't tell Evaristo. Later in the newlyweds' bedroom Leo sleeps on the couch. When she complains disappointedly. he angrily reminds her that's what she signed and agreed to. --Next morning Casilda gets mad at Leo when he pointedly sits down next to Nora at breakfast. So she meanly forces Nora to get up from the breakfast table that they were all sharing, in order to serve Leo his breakfast like a servantgirl. Later she demands Isaura and Nora leave the house permanently, and then agrees to just a few days when Isaura balks at having no place for the two of them to go; but she says they must start looking and she'll even pay for it as long as she can get Nora the heck out of there and away from Leo. Isaura ends up at Heriberto's hotel and blackmails him into a free room with an "Open Bar" for as long as Casilda wants. Otherwise she'll make sure Gertrudis will hear all about his adventures with Casilda.
Nora tells Isaura she has a plan so they won't have to worry about being thrown out onto the street like beggars; she takes a surprise trip up to Mexico City and drops in at the Pension. She introduces herself to Abuelo as Arturo's fiance, and tells him her long history to avoid him thinking badly about her any longer. Abuelo believes and accepts her willingly, especially when Arturo walks in from work and is so obviously delighted to find her there. She tells them she's staying in a small hotel nearby and not to worry about a room. Arturo introduces her to Covadonga and the 4 of them end up sightseeing. While sightseeing he gives her a beautiful bracelet and aparrently a ring appears on her finger.
J.Carlos gives Paulina her mom's diamond necklace back, and expresses his deep love for her. However, later, because she overhears Sergio whining to Diana behind the partition about how she didn't deserve to be editor, she resigns her position with the organization. She tells J.Carlos it's because it looks like he's promoted her for all the wrong reasons. He angrily swears she deserved it in spite of his feelings for her. Renata talks her into staying as a reporterette at least. Sergio gets the editorship then. So now instead of Renata going to Miami, Paulina will go to Miami next week for this important launch(?) meeting. Then she makes a call home to her daddy but he's not there. He's gone birthday shopping for her with Rafa. The orphan boy tells Paulina how Arturo saved him and her dad from another really bad fire. She's surprised and touched.
At dinner that night Leo angrily accuses Casilda of purposely sending the others away from the house in order to force him to give in to her desires for a sexual encounter. She denies it but he doesn't believe and storms off from the dinner table.
Arturo and Nora return home from siteseeing and find a note that Covadonga and Abuelo went to a late movie. Nora and he decide to go up to his room for some quality love-making. Upstairs in the darkened room they're kissing and getting passionate and just then there's a knock at the door. Arturo pushes Nora behind the door and opens it, shocked and says, "Paulina!" Immediate the look on Nora's face changes from an impatient lover's smile to an anxiously desperate, bitterly jealous frown as she REMEMBERS Paulina as the girl he kissed in the restaurant right after she told the millonaire ranchero, Osvaldo, that she'd marry him.

That next morning,
Nora finds Evaristo quarelling with Isaura and asks how dare he show up there
after the night before. Evaristo brought over IOU's and Nora signs all of them,
but he leaves threatening jail if she doesn't pay up. Isaura asks why she got
herself into such a jam and Nora says he tricked her. Isaura asks her why she
just didn't pay the money back and Nora answers because it was an awful lot.
Isaura warns her that she'd better pay up or he really will put her in jail.--
Renata and Juan Carlos tell her dad they're coming to cover Rafa's exhibition
in Morelia. -- While Nora's sewing on a dress for one of Pilar's customers
she's worrying about getting herself out of this financial mess without letting
either Leonardo or Arturo know. Most of all she doesn't want to get Casilda mad
at her again for mixing in with Leonardo.--Casilda's talking to "Madrina"
again about what a waste of time it is trying to get Leonardo to love somebody
like her.
Paulina calls her
dad and tells him Arturo showed up with her gifts and Silverio exclaims what a
nice man to offer since he was going to Miami anyway.--Casilda walks in on Nora
while she's up in her bedroom appreciating the dress she's just finished
making. Snidely, Casilda reminds Nora a dress like that is way too expensive
and out of reach for anyone not of the proper position in society. Then she
reminds Nora again to stay away from Leonardo and Nora agrees, saying soon
she'll pleasantly surprise her and be sure to be out of their way, permanently.
--At the training center in Miami, Arturo keeps remembering making love to both
Nora and Paulina and that he should never have let things go so far that night
with Paulina. He feels guilty for what he's done to both, but for different
reasons. --At the publishing house Renata's being given the task of sifting
through all the readers' letters to find the most interesting to highlight in
the premier issue of "Prisms". Then Juan Carlos and Renata start to
discuss his feelings for Paulina and Renata says that she thinks Paulina will
accept him. --Diana and Renata are eating later together at some restaurant and
she reminds him of some pesky caller named Victor Gorduño who is demanding an
appointment. He nastily tells her to take care of it; that's why he has
her....."
Roberto is
rehearsing and Alfredo pops up to congratulate him again after the song is
finished. He's asking as two guys from the same town for Roberto's help with a
second chance to perform. Roberto answers it's not his decision. --Back at
Mirta's home she, Renata, her dad and Ana Marie are discussing the pile of
letters to the magazine the hopeful readers have sent in. Mirta explains to her
mom that these women are writing in about all sorts of personal problems, and
that many of them just use fake names if they are too embarrassed to have
anyone know who they are.--Leo returns from N.Y. and refuses a mean again, then
goes up for a bath and a nap.--Mirta's mom later confronts her husband with the
photos she took out of the trash, but Don Felipe says it was none of her
business. Ana Marie says that's been the problem for too long, his ignoring her
and she tells him she's planning to separate from him. --Leo goes up to Nora's
room for a chat and she tells him Arturo's out of the country training for his
new position, but as soon as he's back they're marrying. --Paulina can't stop
obsessing about Arturo and going to bed with him that night. In spite of
knowing it was wrong, and that he's marrying Nora, and in spite of the fact he
could never love her the way he loves Nora, she just can't get that night out
of her head.
Leo finds a dead
bird hidden in his shirts while getting dressed. --Ana Marie writes and
anonymous letter about her marital problems, signs it with a different name and
buries it in Renata's stack on the table. --Felipe finds Mirta packing in her
bedroom and asks her why. Mirta blurts out it's because Arturo has decided to
marry another woman and so she's decided to return to N.Y. --Ana Marie later
tells her she shouldn't have discussed this with her dad, but Mirta blows it
off and says since Arturo's out of the country training, Don Felipe won't bother
with him. --Later, at the table with Casilda, Nora and Isaura, Leonardo brings
up the dead bird and explains to Nora that this is a part of witchcraft and the
bird is a charm used to cast a love-spell on a person. Both Isaura and Casilda
deny any knowledge of witchcraft and spells or charms. Leonardo warns that
stuff will not work on him and then drops the "poor little animal"
into Casilda's waterglass. --Roberto's guitarist doesn't show for the rehearsal
since he's gotten a different job. Alfredo jumps up and asks to replace him
since he plays and is part of the whole entertainment scene, anyway. Roberto
agrees to the audition and ends up giving Alfredo the lead guitar position with
his band.
At Nora's Leonardo
angrily gets up from the table and goes upstairs after warning Casilda not to
try anymore stupid witchcraft out on him. He goes up to his room and starts
drinking heavily. --Nora's back sewing in her bedroom and thinking about
Arturo, and paying off all her debts by sewing for Pilar's customers when
Leonardo bursts in falling-down drunk. He's crying that he's still so in love
with her; he admits that even though he's sleeping with Gisela he only does it
for passion, not for love. Nora stares at disbelief at this revelation and he
says it's been going on for a long time now. Nora reminds him she isn't
interested in him as anything but a good friend; as soon as Arturo returns
they're getting married and he's got to stay with Casilda and away from her. He
cannot come back into her bedroom again. Outside the room Isaura is listening
to all this and then jumps back into the shadows when Leonardo stumbles out and
heads off for his own bedroom. --In Sergio's office the Garduño breaks in on
him and Diana kissing. He explains he's in there at the request of a powerful
politician who wants better press from the Orellana organization. He's willing
to pay Segio a lot for it.
That night Paulina
is in her room and admits that in spite of his great love for Nora, she can't
forget sleeping with Arturo and keeps seeing the image of the two of them
together in her bed that night. --Arturo keeps pacing between the bed and the
window. He's angry with himself that he let himself get so carried away with
the moment that night with Paulina. He tells himself that nothing justifies
what he's done to those two women; for both of them it was their first time
with a man and now he's ended up hurting Paulina and will also end up hurting
Nora; and all of it is something that goes against his principles. --Nora wakes
up from another nightmare in which Tia, Isaura, Alfredo and she are all at her
father's grave. They're screaming at her that she's a fool; how dare she not
marry for money; and they warn her Arturo will ruin her life. He'll be no
different from any of the other men she knows.
The next day
Renata and Paulina discuss Juan Carlos' proposal and why she should accept it.
Paulina says she'll discuss her reasons for balking when she gets back to
Mexico City. --Nora calls Arturo at the training center because she needs to
hear his voice and he tells her how much he misses her and is constantly
thinking of her. --At the dress shop Pilar admits to Nora that once she had a
lover, too. Unfortunately, he left her and she never heard of him again. That's
the reason she says she thinks Nora should step back a bit from this obsession
with Arturo. Her plans could turn out differently from what she's expecting
whether she likes it or not. Nora doesn't agree. --Paulina looks at her
graduation dress and remembers how she met Nora by accident and how they
remarked on their similar tastes. She feels really bad because of Nora.
--Gisela stops in at Pilar's to pick up the dress Nora had just delivered.
Gisela is catty with Nora and wonders if Nora made it or Pilar, but Pilar says
as long as she likes it, who cares. Before Gisela leaves she tells Nora how
they miss her at the cardgames and would she come with Casilda for one tomorrow
with Casilda. Nora accepts. After Gisela leaves Pilar warns her against playing
because she could lose for once also.
Don Felipe visits
Arturo at the training center and asks him for an explanation regarding his
ending it with Mirta. Arturo says it's none of his business but he was always
truthful to Mirta who knew he was in love with someone else. He never had
promised her anything but to try. In spite of Don Felipe they did try but it
didn't work and he left her to avoid hurting her further. Don Felipe asks if he
was in fact marrying somebody else and Arturo says yes. Don Felipe accuses him
of knowing through Diego that he's always been a womanizer, and says he's not
going to let him forget how he treated Mirta. He leaves and the training
engineer admits he heard the whole conversation and not to let this interfere
with his job. --In the parking lot, thought Don Felipe is attacked and robbed
then left for dead.--At the magazine Renata chooses the anonymous letter from
Mirta's mother. Mirta tries to resign, but Juan Carlos tells her she cannot run
from her problems in life.--Isaura gives Casilda a love potion to put in Leonardo's
food and his drinks. She warns Casilda there's another woman from his past who
hold the power of his love. --Gisela shows up then at Leonardo's old apartment
which he's converting into his new "investments office". While there
Evaristo knocks and she goes hiding into the bedroom. Evaristo warns Leonardo
against stealing all his clients or he will ruin him. Then he leaves and Gisela
comes out saying don't believe it. Come into the bedroom with me. --The cops
show up at the training center wanting Arturo to come identify Don Felipe since
the only thing left on him was Arturo's name and the center's address. He
agrees.
The exhibition
starts at Quiroga's hotel. Rafa is told Renata and J. Carlos are due soon.
--Claudia comes back into town and plans to attend the exhibition and to look
up Rafa. --J. Carlos arrives at Rafa and Don Silverio's to ask for Paulina's
hand. Don Silverio agrees but says it will be her choice, not his.--Arturo
calls Mirta with the bad news about her father and says he needs faxed
permission to represent them with the hospital. He promises to bring him back
to Mexico City to an eminent surgeon the hospital is calling for them. --At
Casilda's she serves Leonardo a drink with the potion in it and it's so bad
tasting Leonardo spits it out and all over her. She's left shocked and
embarrassed. --Renata calls her dad about Don Felipe and says she's staying
with Mirta and not going to make it to the exhibition. Julian agrees to tell
Juan Carlos. None of the guests are to know and he'll leave for M.C. right
away. The exhibition starts and Rafa isn't told why Renata isn't coming.
Claudia appears and latches onto him while he's getting a call from Cathy
telling him that she's ready to import his group's first shipment into the
States. --At the hospital Arturo tell Mirta and Ana Marie why Don Felipe was in
Miami. They tell him not to blame himself it for Don Felipe's situation; it was
not his fault and that he'd acted honorably throughout all of it. Abuelo
Sandoval shows up. --Paulina comes home and Covadonga tells her the news about
Mirta's dad. --Jessica is in Sergio's office when he finds out about Don Felipe
and asks her to come along. --
At Gisela's Nora
and Casilda arrive and Evarist is wating to ask Nora for his money again.
Gisela says Nora should catch up with them when she's done talking to her
husband. He warns Nora that if she doesn't pay up by the date given she's being
taken to jail. --When Nora sits down at the cardtable Gisela says,"I must
have been misunderstood or didn't explain to you correctly. I asked you here to
serve drinks, not to play." --At the hospital Jessica runs right to Juan
Carlos and he gruffly says he wasn't expecting her there. Then Paulina arrives
and he gives her a kiss. Jessica tells her to get lost and Juan Carlos shuts

summary by Jardinero654 for July 28, 2004
As
Paulina comes in the door to the Pension from Miami, Covadonga tells her that
Mirta's dad was assaulted and robbed, hit on the head and left for dead while
on a trip to the States. Apparently, Arturo flew him back to Mexico on a
private plane himself and says he's really in serious condition. Paulina
shivers at Arturo's name. --Sergio gets word and makes sure Jessica knows if
she comes to the hospital with him he doesn't want any trouble with Juan Carlos
because of it. --At Gisela and Evaristo's, Evaristo asks Nora if she's
intending to pay him back on time and if she intends to win from his wife in
order to do it. She says that's her business, because Gisela invited her. Not
to worry, though as he'll get back every cent. Nora goes into the game room and
sits down with the other women and smiling painfully, asks what they'll be
playing. Gisela pipes up that she is sorry for the misunderstanding. Nora
wasn't there to play, but because Gisela was short serving staff and since Nora
was needing the money, she thought Nora could assist them by serving drinks
today. --Jessica kissed Juan Carlos hello in the hospital waiting room and then
Paulina shows up. Juan Carlos pointedly kisses Paulina hello. When Paulina
politely asks Jessica how she's doing, Jessica says things were fine "till
you arrived." J. Carlos loses his cool and tells Jessica she's the one who
ought to leave since Paulina and he are getting married. Shocked, Jessica says
it's a joke, right? No, so she runs out threatening to get even with Juan
Carlos. --Nora is sugary sweet and deliberate with her reply: "Gisela,
although to serve is not a job one should be ashamed of, I came to play and not
to serve -unless of course, you're frightened of me because I always win?"
Gisela purrs back, "That was only luck, dear and that's finished
now." Nora stares her in the eye, "Care to prove it?" Gisela stares
back,” Okay, fine, but you're going to lose." Casilda pops up and asks
Nora, "Do you have the money because I'm not loaning you any." Nora
doesn't take her eyes off Gisela and replies, "I have the money Pilar just
paid me. It's plenty."
They begin to play. --Sergio explains to
Juan Carlos how Jessica forced herself on him and says he never wanted a scene
like that. J. Carlos says to forget it. Then Paulina angrily tells her boss he
had no right to embarrass her like that telling people they were engaged when
they weren't even dating. He apologizes and reminds her that it was just
because she's his whole life to him. Arturo greets Paulina and asks how she's
been feeling. She replies, badly. He admits he's not told Nora yet because he
hasn't a chance to see her face to face. Diego enters and refuses Arturo's
handshake. He tells Arturo he's not wanted or needed here. Arturo says good-bye
to Paulina and him and goes. Mirta gets mad at Diego and tells him it was
Arturo who arranged for the surgeon and flew their dad back in a private plane.
He's the reason their dad's still alive.
The women keep playing poker and the pot is
huge. Gisela deals out extra cards and tries to get Nora to say something in
order to trick a "tell" from her. Nora's not so naive. Gisela doubles
her ante and Nora matches her. Gisela shows her hand: 3 Aces. Nora sweetly
says, "Oh wellllll. I have a full house" and wins the pot. She then
asks if they'll be playing another hand and Gisela answers of course,
"That's why we're there. Betina shuffle?" Nora wins again and
suggests to Gisela, "If you don't want to pay me, you can always serve me
something. Champagne would be nice, in fact you haven't given us anything this
whole time." Gisela gets up and say's she's not about to serve anything and
she'll be back with her check in a bit. Casilda mentions how fortunate it is
Nora's good at cards. Betina pipes up," Lucky at play unlucky at love.
That's the way it is for you these days, isn't it, Nora?" Nora responds
sweetly, "Actually I'm luckier in love than play these days. Very much
so."
The doctor tells Diego's family that she's
not hopeful, because there's been a lot of brain damage. Diego weeps for the
first time.--Rafa At the exhibition Claudia tells Rafa he's wasting his time
with a snob like Renata. From the first she's only wanted to belittle him. She
suggests they go celebrate his success and they go out. At dinner Claudia
suggests he and she go somewhere she can make him forget all about Renata. They
end up at a motel. After the deed she tells him he was her first lover. He's
bored and disillusioned with it all. --Leonardo overhears Nora tell Isaura that
same evening that her winnings will help put a big down payment on the debt she
owes Evaristo. He immediately wants to know why she's in debt to his old boss
and Nora says it's just from cards and not much. He replies that if she needs
financial support she's to count on him for it. Nora says fine, thanks, but no
thanks and goes up to bed. Isaura comes over to him and says she's in debt far
greater than she'd admit. If you want to help you can give me the money and
I'll discreetly hand it over to her. Leonardo responds that if Nora needs help
he figures she trusts him enough to ask him for it herself.
The next morning Nora is telling Isaura
she's off to the bank to cash Gisela's check and make her first payment to
Evaristo. Isaura tells her to stop and think again about taking Evaristo as her
protector because the debt she owes is so large. Nora explodes at her! "I
am fed up with you! Never! Don't you ever bring this subject up to me again. I
am never going to take him or anyone else as a lover, and least of all this
damned creep!!" --Diego's mom is crying about the fact they never got to
communicate their true feelings to Don Felipe and now it's probably too late.
--Alfredo is complaining to Gertrudis he should be the one auditioning to the
record company, not Roberto. --Nora is downtown and tries to call long distance
to Arturo at the training center but can't get through. She gets an idea and
calls Pilar to help her with it. --At the magazine Paulina and Renata are just
about to discuss what happened in Miami when J. Carlos comes to take them to
Roberto's big audition. --Sergio and Gerduño exchange money for a finished copy
of his favorable editorial. -- In their dressing room Alfredo and Roberto are
talking when Roberto receives a gift bottle of tequila. The card says it's from
Claudia, of all people. Alfredo talks Roberto into taking a swig "to clear
his throat" and calm his nerves. While he does Alfredo smirks to himself,
"You idiot, Roberto. It was I who sent that with Claudia's name on it to
throw you off the track. If you only knew how I've prepared it so that one
swallow will act as if you'd drunk the whole thing." Roberto is passed out
when Juan Carlos and the two girls come for him. Alberto suggests he's ready to
fill in and since they can't wake him up Alberto auditions in Roberto's place.
It's a big success.
At Don Silverio's Rafa is telling his dad
he needs advice because of going to bed with Claudia the night before. He
admits he did it only to try to forget his love for Renata. He's sorry for it
because Claudia apparently was a virgin, yet marriage isn't something he wants
to think about. His dad says if she hadn't been a virgin, it would be
different, but think what you'd do if the same had been done to your sister.
Act accordingly.--At Claudia's she's laughing about telling Rafa he was her
first. Her friends say he's going to do well now with that export business of
his. She says yeah, I think he'd make a good catch now. --When Roberto wakes up
he swears he never drank the bottle up. Renata finds Claudia's card and Paulina
suggests she put something in it to wreck his audition. --Nora makes a surprise
visit to Arturo's room at the hotel in Miami. She wakes him up with a kiss and
he is more than a little bit surprised and happy. They spend the night
together.--Sergio and Diana go out drinking and she asks him how he has so much
to spend on just an editor's salary. He says he's made some good business
dealings on the outside.
The next morning Arturo is in his
instructor, the "Ingeniero's," office discussing Nora's surprise
night visit. He doesn't know how she dared to do this. The instructor says it's
good she didn't get caught because it would've gone down badly for him with the
company. However, as long as he doesn't repeat it, fine. Love can't be
challenged. Besides, he's sure Arturo was just as into it as she was and Arturo
smiles, saying he can't deny it. --At Casilda's that same morning Leonardo's
asking why Nora's not at breakfast. Isaura says she got a call that there was
so much to do at Pilar's she spent the night there. Casilda giggles that maybe
it was a lover. Leonardo shuts her up with a stare and says Nora's a grown woman
and free to live as she likes. --Ana Marie and Julian discuss the photos of
Joaquin and Julian says he recognizes him as an acquaintance of somebody who
recently died in Morelia. He offers to find out more. --Rafa finds Claudia a
while later and explains,I didn't love you although we slept together, but
you're pretty and amiable and I like you. So if you want, we can get engaged.
She says good.--Casilda and Isaura are screaming up in her bedroom about her
husband daring to defend Nora like that. Isaura says it doesn't matter if he
pays attention to Nora or not, they still have business pending. She still owes
her for helping get rid of her Madrina for her. Casilda screams back the
money's being invested for the next month and she can't so she'll just have to
wait for it. --Arturo finds out from Abuelo Sandoval that Don Felipe may never
wake up from his coma but Arturo is not to feel like it's his fault.--Casilda
continues with Isaura that Nora just may have a lover. Isaura says she is the
last person who should be judging Nora after her "spirited"
adventures with Heriberto. In fact they're almost like sisters they are so
alike in things. Casilda is left puzzling over that remark. --Paulina comes
home late and depressed. Abuelo and Covadonga remark afterward that since she
came back from Miami she's been acting really strange and sad. --Arturo is
agonizing over how badly he's betrayed Nora's trust.
The next morning Roberto apologizes at the
staff meeting and quits, but Juan Carlos says not to. Forget and forgive.
--Alfredo tells Gertrudis he just signed a record contract.--Julian leaves the
management of the hotel to Gilda while he makes arrangements to start looking
for information about Joaquin. He ignores an advance from Gilda and she leaves,
embarrassed.--Paulina finally admits what happened with Arturo in Miami over
her birthday. She's in love with him and did it gladly. She'd been lying to
herself the whole time. Renata says he's marrying someone else, and this was
crazy. Paulina says she never meant to get in the way of his other
relationship, so now she'll have to love him in silence.--Arturo is confiding
about Paulina to his instructor and how he's so upset things went so far that
night. He loves Nora and Paulina was just a bit of passion due to being thrown
together that night. The instructor asks if Paulina means anything to him and
he says no, there could never be anything either. It just "isn't". So
the instructor advises him to never tell Nora and just let it go and move on
with his life. There's no reason to hurt her about this. --Julian finds out
from Isaura and Casilda that Joaquin had Tia buy him a house in Mexico City.
Julian says great. That gives him a start at locating him.

her against shaming her Madrina's memory. Nora assures her she has nothing to

Paulina finally
admits to Renata what happened with Arturo in Miami over her birthday. She's in
love with Arturo and went to bed with him gladly. She'd been lying to herself
the whole time and realizes she did it because she’s fallen in love with him.
Renata says he's marrying someone else, and this was crazy. Paulina says she
never meant to get in the way of his other relationship, so now she'll just
have to love him in silence. Renata promises to stand by her no matter what.
–In Julian’s office Casilda and Isaura give what information they can about
Joaquin because it’s for a business associate who needs to locate him. They
tell Julian about the house Tia bought for him in Mexico City just before she
died. –Ana Marie tells her therapist she’s quitting the sessions and agrees to
continue taping her innermost thoughts. –Nora comes back from Miami hardly able
to wait for the month of Arturo’s training to finish. One month later she’s
looking at the results of a home pregnancy test and is thrilled to find she’s
expecting his baby. She has two days left till he comes for her and they get
married. –In Miami Arturo is told by his instructor that he’s done so well he’s
finished 2 days ahead of schedule and asks Arturo if he’s had a chance to tell
his fiancé. Arturo says only his Abuelo knows yet, but he’ll try to contact
Nora. –He flies back that afternoon with his trainer to Mexico City.
Isaura asks why
Nora’s so excited but when Nora tells her the two of them argue that she’s
shamed herself by not being married. Nora says she’s to marry in 2 days and
she’ not ashamed of the baby. Isaura complains that after all that’s happened
Nora is as naïve as ever. She can do whatever she wants, but if the wedding
doesn’t come off Nora cannot come crying to her later. –Gisela calls the house
looking for Leonardo and Casilda overhears. She grabs the phone and demands to
know who is speaking. Gisela just hangs up. Casilda jealously takes the phone
of the hook so whoever-she-is cannot call back. –Just then Arturo calls the
house but of course cannot get through because the phones off the hook.
–Paulina is sick and nervous at the thought of Arturo’s return because she
knows it will be impossible to stay there knowing he’s in love with someone
else and marrying her soon. –Gisela tracks Leonardo down at his old apartment
now fully transformed into his business office. She offers him a diskette full
of information about Evaristo’s clients, but he refuses to do business that way
and gives it back to her. He tells her to leave because he’s really too busy to
talk now.
Isaura and Casilda
discuss reconnecting with Heriberto to take the edge off Casilda. If she can’t
have sex with Leonardo she might as well use Heriberto as a substitute. That
way she won’t anger Leonardo by clinging to him so much. Isaura offers to make
the contact again. Casilda thinks seriously about another tryst again.
--Gertrudis and Heriberto are watching Alfredo ham it up on a TV. program.
Gertrudis is patting herself on the back about how right she was concerning
Alfredo’s possibilities. Heriberto shoots back that Alfredo was the one who
benefited, and he’d just taken advantage of her, but he stops short of
explaining to her exactly what he means by that. –Julian tells Ana Marie that
Joaquin Arcadio was the man’s name and that although he owned the house in
Mexico City he turned around and sold it right after Alejandra’s death. –At
work, Juan Carlos pressures Paulina for her answer to his marriage proposal.
She says later and they agree he’ll come that night to the Pension for her
response. –That afternoon Arturo arrives back at the Pension and everyone
greets and congratulates him. He tells Abuelo that he’s been unable to tell
Nora that he’s back 2 days ahead of schedule. Abuelo voices his concern that
Nora seems to be overly dependent upon him and that that could be a problem
with all his time away flying. Arturo says he thinks it will make her more
independent.
Juan Carlos
complains to Sergio that the magazine is becoming too slanted towards this
politico who’s under investigation. Sergio promises to correct this error and
J. Carlos admonishes him that it’s a very “delicate matter”……. –Leonardo is on
his way for another business trip and tells Nora that she looks….”radiant.”
Casilda comes running down the stairs to drive him to the airport in her new
car and so Nora doesn’t get the chance to tell him it’s because she’s pregnant
with Arturo’s child. –Evaristo comes for another payment and Nora says tomorrow
and not before, so, "Leave." She tells him she has to ready things
for her wedding and he quips back about the guy not knowing how much money she
owes. She says doesn’t matter because she’s going to pay him herself and get
married with her held high. He scoffs and threatens her with jail. She answers
back that it will be a pleasure to say hello to him when she sees him there,
too. –Sergio tells Gerduño that Juan Carlos is getting wise and is pressuring
him to back off having the magazine put so much support behind this politician.
He’s worried he could get fired. Gerduño warns him the deal was full,
unconditional support no matter what. – Evaristo leaves screaming to Isaura
he’s not falling for anymore of her games again. She’s angry and just then the
phone rings. She answers it and it’s Arturo, not knowing Isaura’s voice asks
for Nora. She lies and says Nora’s gone and is on a trip somewhere. He asks her
to tell Nora he’s back now and she says um-hummmmmmmm and hangs up. Nora yells
down asking who just called and Isaura deliberately lies saying it was only a
client of Leonardo’s. --Ana Marie is paying the last of the expensive hospital
bills and says that she’s expecting a special nurse to come live with them now
that Don Felipe is being brought back home and is still comatose.
That evening Juan
Carlos calls on Paulina and they begin discussing their non-existent
relationship. She says she’s not going to marry him because she’s in love with
someone else. No, he’s not in love with her and probably doesn’t even know how
she feels. He says if there’s a possibility she’d be able to get over the other
man he’d be there for her. She says no. Arturo arrives back from the pensioner’s
celebratory dinner out with him and walks in on the two of them. –Late at night
the maid comes in to find Nora unable to sleep and in the kitchen rooting
around. She tells her she’s unable to sleep because she’s getting married in 2
days. The maid goes out to the living room and sees a “vision” of the ghost of
Alejandra walking up the stairs and begins screaming. It turns out to be
Casilda dressed up like her madrina. Casilda goes back into the bedroom and
begins talking to herself/Alejandra again. –Back downstairs at the Pension
Arturo runs into Paulina in her old bathrobe and she asks if he’s told Nora
about them yet. He says no, but he is going to because he’s sure she’ll realize
it was only “passion of the moment” and not love so she’ll be ready to forgive
and to forget. Paulina isn’t so sure and suggests he just forget telling her
altogether. She assures him it hadn’t meant anything to her either and goes up
to bed thinking, “If you only knew I’m in love with you!”
The next morning
he and she are forced to sit next to each other at breakfast and feeling really
awkward. She can’t eat again. At work she promises Mirta to accompany her to
the hospital when Don Felipe is discharged. –In the meantime Arturo’s been
given a new route that will be based half out of Morelia and then half based
internationally. While the Ingeniero and Arturo are discussing it, Diego walks
in and Arturo is presented as Diego’s new captain for the 2 new routes they’ll
be sharing. Neither of them is comfortable with this news. –Pilar tells Nora
she’s happy about the baby, but worried again that she’s too wound up with this
Arturo. She asks her to reconsider having Arturo help her with the debt because
otherwise she’s certain to be put in jail. (Nora still doesn’t know Arturo is
back from his training.) Pilar has some appointments with clients she’s late
for and Nora offers to stay at the shop, working so Pilar can get away. She
says there’ll be plenty of time to speak with Arturo when he’s back in Morelia
and she’ll forego meeting him at the airport as she’d planned. –Paulina goes
with Mirta to the hospital. She’s waiting alone in the lounge when Arturo
greets her. He’s there to help with the discharge too, if he can. Paulina
faints and Arturo gets the doctor who does a few tests on her. –Don Felipe’s
new private nurse arrives and introduces herself to Ana Marie. –The doctor
comes for Arturo when the tests are done and leaves him and Paulina alone to
discuss the results. Paulina tells Arturo she’s expecting his baby.

Paulina
discovers her pregnancy and tells Arturo. He tells her that he will support her
by recognizing the baby and giving it his name. He is clear, however, that he
wants to continue with his plans to marry Nora.
The therapist,
Demiana (I'm guessing on spelling), arrives at the hospital to accompany Don
Felipe home. Ana Maria is surprised that D. is an indigenous woman. Mirta
explains that she met D. when she was doing a story on indigenous women. We
learn that Felipe is racist and that his secretary has worn a wig and colored
contact lenses to avoid Felipe knowing about her origins. We hear Felipe's
thoughts , including his wonderment that a lowly indigenous woman would be
caring for him. She clearly knows what she is doing as a therapist, however,
and asks for light and plants in the room and tells AM that Felipe can hear and
sense what is going on. There is a touching scene late in the episode when
Diego tells his father that he is giving up flying in order to take care of the
family business. Felipe says to himself that he doesn't deserve Diego's love
and unselfish actions.
Paulina shares the
news of the pregnancy with Renata. They have the first of several conversations
where P. repeats that she loves Arturo, brought this on herself and will not
try to change his attitude toward marrying Nora. She expresses her shame and
feeling that she has disappointed her father and brother. Renata says that Nora
will be furious with Arturo, which seems to open the door to P. to at least
wonder if there isn't a future with Arturo.
The women in the
pension gossip with Don Clemente about why Paulina is feeling so poorly.
Covadonga wonders if she might not be pregnant. Maybe she was with someone in
Miami. Pascuala wonders if it wasn't Arturo. Fast forward to DC entering
Arturo's room as he gets confirmation over the phone from the doctor that Pau
is indeed pregnant. DC goes balistic at the idea that Arturo could have been
involved in this. DC has given Silverio and Rafe his word that he will care for
Pau and this is what his grandson does! Arturo assures him that he did not
force Pau to sleep with him. Poor DC begins to have chest pains as they discuss
the future. He takes a pill and calms down as Arturo assures him that he will
stand by Paulina, although he will marry Nora. DC warns Arturo that Nora may
not forgive him and he can understand why she may not.
Nora continues to
be deliriously happy about her pregnancy and Arturo's return. Isaura taunts her
with the notion that Arturo will disappoint her. I. says she never wanted to
have children, they are a pain, especially if one has to raise them alone.
Casilda is thrilled that Nora is planning to marry and, best of all, move away
to Mexico. She still doesn't know about the pregnancy. I. later tells C. that
she has a bad feeling about Arturo's intentions toward Nora.
Covadonga has a
problem. She is expecting money from her nephew in Spain. The group at the
pension is concerned for her. They intercept a letter from the wife of the
nephew saying that they can't afford to help her. The group enlists Arturo to
help Covedonga without letting her know.
Diana discovers,
again with the counsel of Covadonga and the women at the pension, that she is
pregnant. Sergio refuses to get the divorce he's supposedly been planning to
get. He wants her to find a way to end the pregnancy. She threatens to tell
Juan Carlos the class of man that he is. She eventually goes to the orphanage
where Manolo (one of the pension members) works. She asks about leaving a
recently born baby there. She then tells him that she is pregnant. He wants to
help her (he is in love with her). She gives a touching speech about how a
woman can't embrace the idea of a pregnancy when she is alone and without
support.
Pau and Don
Clemente talk. She is mortified that he knows about the pregnancy but he is
encouraging in telling her that she is a member of his family, that she is bearing
his great grandchild and that he knows that Arturo would never hurt anyone. She
calls her father, but speaks only for a moment. Silverio later tells the little
boy that lives by them in Morelia that he is concerned about Pau -- she sounds
like something isn't quite right.
Nora asks Pilar to
be her madrina for the wedding. She also tells Pilar that Casilda has begun to
adopt the language, style, mannerisms of Alejandra. Nora asks Leonardo to walk
her down the aisle. He hesitates because he doesn't want to give her to another
man, but finally agrees. She leaves to see Arturo who is on his way to Morelia.
Evaristo visits
Heriberto as E. is thinking about buying a hotel. They talk about Nora and E.
tells H. about how he has forced N. to sign an IOU or face jail. E. then shares
with H. the news that Nora is about to marry, wearing white. Heriberto looks
surprised and like he could be up to something.
Paulina is sitting
in the publishing office crying. Juan Carlos comes in and insists on knowing
why. She tells him that she is pregnant.
Arturo meets Nora
near the fountain, their usual place. They embrace passionately. He gets right
to the point. He says: I adore you, I love you. Don't forget how I feel about
you. He then tells her the news that he slept with Paulina and that she is
pregnant.
The episode ends
with Nora looking shocked. Preview seems to indicate that she tells him to get
lost, runs to Leonardo for comfort. Leo he'll divorce Casilda to take care of
Nora. Last scene in the preview has Arturo climbing up to the balcony, entering
the room, as Leonardo threatens to shoot him. Can't wait until Monday!!!

Isaura begins to
think to herself it won't do for Nora to know Arturo still wants to marry her,
and only just give the baby his name. Nora cannot be allowed to know this and
to forgive Arturo, since Isaura wants to try again to persuade Nora to become
Evaristo's lover. So she pays him visit and tells him all about Nora breaking
up with Arturo. Evaristo goes to Arturo's hotel, buys him a quick drink and
realizes Isaura was telling him the truth about Nora this time.

SUMMARY AEMP:
Arturo returns to
Mexico City and tells his Abuelo that Nora refused to listen to him or to
forgive him. --Casilda tells Nora she’s to leave the house and never to
return.-- Paulina sits down with Covadonga and tells her she’s so upset she
cannot keep quiet any longer about her condition. She’s pregnant. Covadonga
assures her that she should be honest with her family about her situation. Then
Paulina goes up to Arturo’s room and asks how things went with Nora in Morelia.
He tells her it went pretty badly. She encourages him to insist on seeing her
again to smooth things out. – Nora is in her room with her suitcase packing and
Casilda explains that last night Arturo wouldn’t leave and Leonardo ended up
pulling a gun on him. If she hadn’t begged Arturo to think of the harm he would
be causing and Leonardo had shot the gun, he’d be in jail and the whole house
would be in such an uproar……..It would just be best if Nora left. When Nora
gets downstairs and is at the door, Isaura pretends she’s going to be really
upset at Nora’s leaving, turns around and gives Casilda a big wink to know
she’s playing it up according to the plan. Nora defends Casilda and says it’s
her idea to leave, and not Casilda’s. She’s going to stay a bit with Pilar in
the spare room above her dress shop. –Later, after she’s gone, Leonardo comes
down asking where she’d gone to and the women tell him where and that she left
at dawn unexpectedly. They assure him it was her idea. He goes after her.
Nora and Pilar get
her fixed up in the tiny room there, but Pilar still asks her to come live with
her in her house. Nora refuses. She tells Pilar the story. Pilar asks if Arturo
realizes she’s pregnant too and Nora says she’s never going to tell him. Then
Leonardo arrives and asks for her to come back home. –Isaura gives Casilda a
candle and a “passion-inducing incantation” to keep her occupied for awhile.
–From the airport in Miami, Arturo calls the house and Luisa answers, but
Isaura pounces on her. Luisa lies and says it’s a cousin calling and Isaura
leaves telling her to hurry up and not to use the phone again for personal
business. Arturo says he caught the whole conversation, then asks where Nora
is; Luisa tells him she’s no longer living at the house. –Diana tells Sergio
she’s got an appointment to abort the pregnancy. Sergio’s both happy and
relieved; he writes her a check to cover all the expenses on the spot, telling
her it’s for the best. --Paulina is telling Renata how embarrassed she is to
have to tell her family anything. –
Nora accuses
Leonardo, in front of Pilar, of only coming to take her home because, like all
men, only wants to sleep with her. He stays calm and asks her not to think so harshly
of him. Then he excuses himself and leaves. Nora tells Pilar that now her baby
is the only reason for living. Right then the phone rings at Pilar’s and Nora
answers. It is Arturo in the States (at the Miami airport). He begs her to
listen to him. He swears he still adores and loves her and he tells her that he
never wants to lose her. She yells back that she doesn’t like the idea of being
his lover while he’s living with his "other family.” She says Arturo’s
wasting his time with her. She will never forgive him, and she hopes to succeed
in turning every bit of love he has for her into hate for her and she hangs up
on him. Arturo leaves the airport and goes to his hotel in Miami. The bellboy
takes him up to the exact room that Paulina was staying in the night the two of
them slept together. He walks in, sees the bed and very explicitly remembers
their sexual encounter. The memory is too painful for him and he demands a
different room for the night.
That night
Leonardo is undressing and Casilda peeks in on him. She cannot keep her eyes
off of him and he turns around to see her watching him. He is infuriated and
grabs her. He drags her to the mirror and pushes her face up close. She’s
forced to look at herself in the mirror while he yells at her for ludely spying
on him. Leonardo tells her because she’s ugly on the inside as well as on the
outside he could never love someone like her: she’s mean, possessive, selfish,
and she has neither self-control nor a shred of dignity; she’s repugnant and
disgusting and he despises her. –Nora is still distracted so Pilar suggests she
come to a gathering of some of Pilar’s friends that night... Nora begs off
because she’s just not emotionally up to it. She keeps thinking about Arturo
telling her at their fountain all about Paulina and wanting to give the baby a
name, adopting it. That’s when Nora says that she’s being punished. Her father
and aunt both told her love was non-existent. Pilar disagrees, but Nora
continues saying now she’s repentant herself, for having loved Arturo so much.
Loving Arturo has been her greatest sin. –Isaura makes a quick call to
Evaristo, telling him Nora’s moved out and is living alone. She could use a
protector about now. He is excited to hear that Nora and Arturo apparently are
no longer getting married.
Sergio peeks in on
Juan Carlos and questions him about how the relationship with Paulina is
progressing. He says he’s still in love with her, but nothing’s happening.
Sergio runs back to his office and calls Jessica. He tells her that things are
at a standstill with creepy Paulina and now’s her chance to jump back in the
ring. Come on over to the magazine right now. –Leonardo has been thinking to
himself that he was too rough on Casilda and goes looking for her through the
house. He finds her in her bedroom, sitting distractedly with a pair of sharp
scissors in her hand. She starts cutting her one wrist and he runs in to hear
her tell him it’s because she’s so repugnant to him. –At the magazine Paulina
tells Juan Carlos she’s afraid to tell her parents about the pregnancy. Jessica
arrives and overhears this conversation behind the file cabinets. After Juan
Carlos assures Paulina everything will be okay because her family loves her he
leaves for a moment. Right then Jessica gets in Paulina’s face and speaks as
loudly as she can. She fairly screams at her in front of everyone that she
really succeeded in trapping Juan Carlos: she made sure she got pregnant with
his child. She’s really nothing more than a brazen slut!
Later that
evening, Evaristo finds Nora upstairs in Pilar’s workshop. He asks her when
he’s going to get paid because he’s getting impatient. Then he suggests there
are other ways of repaying those IOU’s. He grabs her and traps her, putting his
hands all over her. Just as he begins to try to take her by force Gisela knocks
and enters the room. She’s in shock as he pulls back from Nora and readjusts
his clothing, trying to compose himself.

money or in another way, and comes close to her, Gisela arrives. She accuses
Nora of being the kind of woman Betina said she was -- someone who seduces men
for money. Nora slaps her. Gisela leaves, taking Evarista with her.
Jessica arrives in
the magazine office and yells at Paulina, saying that she has trapped Juan
Carlos with a pregnancy. Paulina tells her that this isn't the case. Jessica
leaves, while Sergio looks on, smirking.
Casilda sits
crying as Leonardo bandages her wrist. She says that no one loves her or will
love her. Isaura enters, trying to find out what is going on.
Pilar tells Nora
that she wants to talk with Gisela. She doesn't care whether Gisela continues
to come to the boutique or not. Nora asks her not to, fearing that other
customers will be chased away. She says she doesn't want to cause Pilar
trouble.
Gisela questions
Evarista about what he was up to with Nora. He asks that she give it no importance.
She tells him that she's been thinking about a divorce. He tells her that they
will both lose a lot as the result of a divorce. She says that she will think
about it, but in the meantime, she no longer wants to share a bedroom with him.
Roberto and the
other reporter investigating Felix Palacio talk with Dahlia, an older woman, in
the cabaret where she works. She's knew Felix P. a long time ago before he
became very rich. Her boss comes over and asks the reporters if they are going
drinks. He reprimands Dahlia for wasting time with them, telling her that she
has the job only out of pity.
Casilda and Isaura
talk. Casilda repeats her fear that she will never be loved. Isaura tells her
again that she should have confidence in her. The next morning Isaura and Leo
talk. He asks again to know the secret of Casilda's origins.
Pilar finds
someone to buy Nora's wedding gown. With the money she goes to Evarista and
pays off more of the debt. She tells him that she has no interest in him or his
protection, especially now that she is pregnant. He looks shocked at the news
of the pregnancy.
Sergio suggests
that he go with Diana for the abortion. She accepts with appreciation. He says
to himself that he is going only to make sure that she goes through with it.
Arturo goes to see
Mirta. He inquires about the health of her father. He tells her that the
wedding with Nora is postponed indefinitely. She tells him that he must fight
for Nora. Diego arrives, angry that Arturo is there. Arturo says that he wanted
only to ask about Don Felipe's health and leaves.
Nora is hit by a
car on leaving Evaristo's. Gisela is driving the car. Nora is taken to the
hospital where she begs the doctor, grabbing his lapels, to save her baby.
Things are touch-and-go for a while, but eventually the bleeding stops and the
baby is ok.
Covadonga and
Diana's friend who is also Juan Carlos' secretary beg her to reconsider the
abortion. She yells at them to leave her alone. However, when she gets to the
abortion doctor she is horrified. She tells him that she doesn't want to
continue with it. He insists on payment. She leaves and Sergio is furious that
she hasn't followed through. She runs away.
Isaura tells
Leonardo the truth, that Alejandra was Casilda's mother. She says that
Alejandra told her this only shortly before her death because of her hatred of
Casilda, because of her conviction that Casilda is ugly. Isaura -- in a rare
moment of truth -- says that Leonardo repeated Alejandra's words of hatred and
deepened the wound. This is why she tried to kill herself. He wonders how he
could have been so hateful. He runs to her room and very tenderly makes love to
Casilda. (A wonderful scene, IMHO!)
When Nora was hit
by the car and hospitalized, Arturo couldn't sleep because of a premonition of
danger. He calls Pilar's boutique, but no one is there. He goes downstairs in
the pension and runs into Paulina, who tells him that she can call her father
and Rafe and they will go find out how Nora is. He is afraid that Nora will, in
her anger, tell Paulina's family about her pregnancy. Paulina says that she can
call the assistant at the workshop and he will inquire discreetly.
Isaura comes to
the hospital and cries big, phony tears of grief over Nora's accident and
danger to the baby's life. When it's clear that the baby will survive, she
thinks out load that it would be better if the baby died. She continues to
carry on. Nora says that accident was a sign from the heavens to forget about
Arturo and to dedicate herself completely to the baby. Isaura and Pilar leave
to get some things for Nora.
Paulina calls the
workshop assistant and asks that he look into Nora's health. While Isaura waits
in her little beetle for Pilar, she spots the assistant and asks what he's
doing. He reveals just enough for her to figure out that Arturo is trying to
find out how Nora is. She assures him that Nora is fine and then follows him,
leaving Pilar to wonder what happened to her ride. Isaura arrives at the
workshop where she tells Silverio that her friend Arturo Sandoval has
recommended the crafts made there. She later finds out from Nora Paulina's
name.
Breakfast back at
the mansion has Casilda looking ecstatic and Leonardo stunned. She is so sweet
to him and so grateful. She takes out wedding rings that she bought when she
thought there would be a church wedding and kept when the wedding was to be
only a civil ceremony, hoping that they might be used some day. In a very
tender scene, they exchange rings. Leonardo's expression is both sympathetic to
Casilda and grim.
The boy from the
streets that Manolo is caring for is slowly getting better. Manolo goes out and
leaves some money for the boy to use to pay the gas bill. His friends come to
visit and take the money. The hairdresser friend of the pension group comes to
visit as it is determined that the money is missing. The hairdresser goes on
and on about the dangers of associating with the street children. The boy
leaves.
Sergio tells
Jessica that she must confront Juan Carlos. She does so, accusing him of
allowing himself to be trapped by Paulina's pregnancy. They argue and Jessica
leaves, for good she says.
The airline needs
Arturo to take over an international route, from NY to Europe. He would rather
quit than do this because he believes that a long absence will finish off the
relationship with Nora. His boss asks him to do it for a few weeks. He agrees,
saying that it will be good for him and Nora to have some time to think.
Casilda uses a
home pregnancy test, and with Isaura looking on, discovers that she is pregnant.
Last scene has
Arturo at Pilar's boutique. He has come to see Nora.
Error in
Summary [USA, 8/4/04] Author: Marietta (---) Date:

There is a
small error in my translation that I need to fix because I think it will be important
later on. Nora does not sell her dress, only other wedding items. I figure that
while she and Pilar agree to keep offering the dress for sale, it will hang
around to be worn at the eventual big wedding.
Amarte es Mi
Pecado: Adios Pilar... SUMMARY FOR THURSDAY AUG 5, 2004 Author: cyndire
(---) Date: 08-05-04 21:02 PDT
Casilda tells
Isaura she is the happiest woman in the world because of her night with
Leonardo. Three weeks go by and Casilda takes a pregnancy test and surprised,
tells Isaura she thinks she is pregnant. Isaura looks at the pregnancy test
results and confirms.
Arturo arrives at
the boutique looking for Nora and finds Pilar. Pilar tells him Nora is not
there and even if she were she wouldn’t talk to him. Arturo asks Pilar if they
can talk….
Casilda is
rejoiced with the news of her pregnancy. Isaura tells her it’s all because of
her help, and Casilda promises to be generous with Isaura.
Arturo tells Pilar
he loves Nora. Pilar says Nora also loves him, but she is too hurt for his
betrayal. Arturo asks Pilar to help him find a way of making Nora agree to talk
and listen to him. Pilar believes in Arturo’s sincerity and promises she will
talk to Nora. She also tells Arturo that Nora has something very important that
she hasn’t told him. Arturo asks what it is, but Pilar changes her mind and
says she can’t tell him. Arturo insists, and Pilar is about to talk when Gisela
arrives at the boutique to pick up some clothes.
Casilda pays
Isaura generously while she imagines how Leonardo will take the news about the
baby. Casilda thinks about asking Nora to return to the house, but Isaura tells
her it’s not a good idea because of Leonardo.
At the boutique,
Gisela flirts at Arturo. Arturo asks Pilar to please not forget about what they
talked and leaves. Gisela tells Pilar that she had come to pick up the clothes
before, but she found Nora trying to pay Evaristo in the only way she knows… by
seducing him. Pilar defends Nora. Gisela reminds Pilar that Nora had to leave
Patzcuaro because of the scandal with Heriberto and that she always finds a way
of taking advantage of stupid men such as her husband (LOL)
Luisa and Nora
meet in the street. Nora asks her for Arturo. Luisa tells her she doesn’t know
what happened to him after the police took him away, then realizes by the look
in Nora’s face that she talked too much. So she tells Nora everything about the
day when Arturo stayed all night by her window in the street and how she was
reprimanded for giving him a cup of coffee, and that after that they had called
the police and he was prohibited from approaching the house.
Pilar tells Nora
that Arturo came looking for her and he wants a chance to talk. She says he
confided in her and promised him to talk to Nora about them and that is exactly
what she is doing in that moment.
Paulina tells
Renata that the time is coming that she will not be able to hide her pregnancy
any longer, and that she will be forced to talk to her dad and Rafael about it.
Pilar tells Nora
she and Arturo should talk, but Nora says no and please don’t tell anything
about her pregnancy to Arturo. Pilar says Arturo made a mistake, but he regrets
it. Nora says she could some day forgive him, but a treachery like that is
impossible to forget. Betina and Nora go to Patzcuaro to get the bride ready
for her wedding… the same bride that bought her wedding things. When Nora
leaves, Pilar tells herself she will help Nora and the first thing she will do
is liberate her from Evaristo Lopez Monfort. She arrives at Evaristo’s office
and gives him the check for the remainder of Nora’s debt. Evaristo tells her
off, saying this is between Nora and him and so she should keep her money.
Pilar tells him that now she believes that what he wants is to get paid in a
different way. Evaristo denies it. Pilar then tells him to take the check or
she will reveal his real intentions to society. He takes the check and Pilar
demands the "promissory" notes.
Betina asks Nora
how her wedding plans are going. The bride is surprised to know Nora is also
getting married, but Nora then says the wedding is off. Betina asks the reason.
Nora says there were some disagreements. Betina tells her she shouldn’t let
this guy go because after all the scandals and problems she doesn’t have that
much of a chance.
Pilar is about to
leave Evaristo’s when she sees Isaura arriving and decides to stay and see what
she is up to. Evaristo tells Isaura he is not interested in Nora and least
because she is pregnant. He tells Isaura to get lost and that he never wants to
see her again. Isaura asks him to give her time and she’ll bring Nora to him in
silver plate. Pilar hears all this hidden behind the door.
At the wedding in
Patzcuaro, the bride invites Nora to the ceremony. She accepts, that way she
can visit the Virgin of Health (Virgen de la Salud). Betina sarcastically
laughs at Nora’s devotion.
At church Gisela
and Betina gossip about Nora. Evaristo arrives. Nora remains in the back of the
church and imagines that the wedding is hers with Arturo. Heartbroken, she
leaves.
Pilar confronts
Isaura. Isaura denies everything, but Pilar says she listened to everything.
Isaura says it’s her word against Pilar’s. Pilar tells Isaura she will make her
pay for all she has done to Nora. Isaura gives her a killer look and saying
“Excuse me” leaves.
In Patzcuaro some
guy in the street insults Nora and she slaps him on the face: Nobody will ever
humiliate her again.
Isaura plays with
all the money she has “earned” while she thinks what she’s going to do about
Pilar.
Don Clemente asks
Arturo how his international trips are going. Arturo says he is back at his old
route and that he was to Morelia, but he couldn’t see Nora.
Pilar forgets the
“promissory” notes while she talks on the phone. Isaura sneaks in and steals
them, and then she sets the boutique on fire.
Leonardo returns
from a business trip. Casilda waltzes down the stairs eager to tell Leonardo
about the baby, when Leonardo looks at the newspaper to find out about the
boutique: there was a fire and a woman has died. Gisela and Evaristo also comment
about it and she tells him she hopes the dead woman is Nora, that way he’ll
stop chasing her.
Leonard finds Nora
crying: the dead woman is Pilar. Isaura plans to get some money from Evaristo
from the “promissory” notes.
Casilda tells
Isaura she is worried about Nora, what if she is who died. Isaura cries for
Nora. Nora tells Leonardo why she was not in the boutique at the time of the
tragedy.
Leonardo offers
his apartment to Nora. She accepts and Leo goes to get the car. Arturo arrives
and tells her thank God she is safe; he was so worried about her. She asks him
if she really matters to him, he says he loves her. She asks him to stop being
a hypocrite and leaves with Leonardo.
At Leonardo’s
apartment, Nora tells him she doesn’t think it is a good idea to stay there.
She also says she will never return to Casilda’s house because she doesn’t want
to be a burden for anyone. Casilda finds out that Nora will stay at Leonardo’s
and is worried that that situation is worse than having Nora live in her home.
Isaura tells her it’s not so, and says she’ll help her with the problem, but
she has to do exactly what she says.
When they’re
leaving the house, Arturo approaches them and asks Casilda to help him
reconcile with Nora, Isaura bights back, Arturo ignores Isaura and asks Casilda
to please think about it.
Casilda visits
Nora and cries. After asking how she is, she says that she knows her situation
is tough but she has to ask her to get away from Leonardo or she will never be able
to give her child the love of a real family. Nora is happy to know about
Casilda’s pregnancy, and promises to get away.
--
Evaristo gives
Gisela a necklace with precious stones. She declines it, but he insists and
asks her to forgive him. She says ok, he thinks all women have their price.
Leonardo arrives
at the apartment with food for Nora, only to find a note she left behind.
Gisela arrives too, and reads the note, where Nora asks him not to look for her
any longer. Gisela and Leonardo have a discussion about it. Gisela swears she
will be sure to make Nora’s life hell. Leonardo asks her to leave, while he
wonders why Nora has left.
Isaura takes Nora
to a modest apartment, and Nora says it’s ok because she can’t afford anything
better. Isaura reminds Nora she still owes the “promissory” notes to Evaristo.
Nora shows Isaura a piece of her wedding gown: that’s all she has from the
remains of the boutique.
The reporter
investigating Felix Palacios finds Dahlia in the street and asks for anything
about him. She refuses to talk. He tells her he is a reporter and he will never
reveal she helped him.
Casilda finds out
Nora left Leonardo’s place. Luisa listens while they secretly mention the place
where she is now living.
Arturo tells
Paulina he will continue to fight for Nora’s love. Paulina replies she knows
that what they had was not love and that she will be that happiest woman in the
world when Nora forgives him. He says he’s sorry, but reminds her he’ll take
responsibility on the baby. Paulina leaves and cries thinking how much she
loves Arturo.
Leonardo wonders
where to find Nora. He asks Isaura and she says she won’t tell him. When she
leaves, Luisa approaches him and tells him she’ll tell him because she also
knows.

cemetery for Pilar. She leaves a rose in the tomb.

the house in search of Nora. Arturo sees him and follows him.

Summary - Friday 8/6/04 (Might be a little long) Author: Beatriz (---) Date:
08-06-04 22:40 PDT
Leonardo finds
Nora and she tries to push him away, but she sees Arturo and kisses Leonardo
while looking at Arturo. Arturo stops momentarily.
Evaristo accuses
Isaura of having provoked the fire that killed Pilar, but she denies it.
Evaristo does not believe her and questions how she got the promissory notes
that Nora had signed. Isaura lies and says that Pilar had given them to her to
give to Nora, but yet again Evaristo challenges her by saying “Why would she
give them to you if Nora lives with her?” She doesn’t offer anymore
explanations and he threatens to call the police and turn her in. He wonders if
she has covered her tracks well as he begins to dial. She walks over and hangs
up the phone and claims that she is innocent. She says that she is
demonstrating her friendship to him by returning the promissory notes to him so
that he can continue to harass Nora. He agrees not to turn her in and tells her
that once he has Nora, she will have a lot of money.
Leonardo and Nora
stop kissing and turn around as Arturo approaches them. Arturo asks Nora,
“Why?” and she yells at him that she doesn’t have to give him any explanations
because he chose his path and now she can chose her own. He pleads with her to
give him a chance to explain, but she refuses and walks away. Arturo attempts
to talk to Leonardo, but he just shrugs and goes after Nora. Arturo receives a
phone call from work telling him that the plane is ready to leave.
Paulina struggles
to concentrate at work and Renata reminds her that she needs to tell her family
about her pregnancy soon. Paulina agrees, but is finding it difficult
especially since Arturo is going to marry Nora.
Leonardo walks
into Nora’s small drab room and tells her that she can’t stay there to please
return to his apartment. She refuses and angrily tells him to leave her alone
and Leonardo leaves.
Later that night,
Nora is unable to sleep and thinks about the fact that Leonardo is a good
person, but that she must keep her distance from him because she promised
Casilda.
Paulina thinks
about the time when Arturo was telling her how much he loves Nora and that he
will never love Paulina because Nora is the love of his life.
Diane asks Paulina
for an article that is due, but Paulina somehow lost it.
Leonardo returns
home and Casilda asks him if he found Nora and if she’ll be returning to the
house. He confirms that she will not be returning and starts to walk upstairs
when Casilda tells him that she is pregnant. Leonardo stops at the top of the
stairs and looks at her in disbelief and shock and then continues upstairs
without saying a word. Casilda complains to Isaura about Leonardo’s reaction
and Isaura tells her to be patient, that he is probably upset because Nora
rejected him.
Paulina cannot
find the article and has to retype it; Diane tells her to redo it quickly
because she has a deadline.
Leonardo thinks
about Casilda’s pregnancy as he paces in his room.
Back in Mexico City,
Arturo and Don Clemente look at a picture of Arturo with his parents as a child
and comment on the immense responsibility of having children. Arturo reassures
his grandfather that he will be a good parent. He then tells Don Clemente that
he saw Nora kissing Leonardo and that is was the same trick she had used
earlier in front of Diego to make him jealous. He realizes that she is just
trying to push him away, but he will not give up on their love.
Luisa takes food
to Nora and tells her that she needs to take care of herself for her baby’s
sake. Luisa asks her if she had been able to see Arturo and to please forgive
him because he loves her. Nora tells her about his infidelity and asks her if
she would forgive him.
Paulina tells
Roberto that she has to submit her article and he offers to take it for her and
she accepts. She also asks him for a favor, that if he were to see Juan Carlos
to tell him that she will be in Morelia regarding a pending issue she has.
Casilda cries in
her room because she thinks that Leonardo doesn’t love her or the baby she’s
expecting. Leonardo approaches the doorway and tells her that he wasn’t
expecting this news, but that he will be there to support her and the baby.
Casilda happily tries to hug him, however he pushes her away and reaffirms that
he doesn’t love her and that he’s never lied to her about it. He reassures her
that he will be a good father and she says that at least now with her baby she
will have a reason to live.
Nora still can’t
sleep and thinks about finding a job and assures her baby that they will be ok.
She shivers from the cold.
The following day,
Leonardo goes downstairs for breakfast, but can’t seem to eat. Isaura asks him
if it’s because of the baby, but he says it’s because he is worried about Nora.
He explains that he wants to help her and that she will not accept anything
from him. Isaura feigns concern, but her eyes light up when he mentions money.
She says that she would like to help but does not think that Nora will accept
any money from him or any other man because of how they have made her suffer.
Leonardo sadly contemplates the situation and asks if Isaura would give her the
money without her knowing who sent it. Isaura ‘reluctantly’ agrees to get the
money to Nora.
Nora goes on an
interview for a secretarial position, but the interviewer says that she is not
qualified for the job. However, he tells her that she may be better qualified
for the receptionist job if she would dress better. Nora agrees that she will
dress better, he then tells her the job has been filled, but insinuates that if
she’d be willing to sleep with him, he can make sure that the job would be
hers. She slaps him and leaves.
Paulina tells
Covadonga that she is going to Morelia to finally tell her family about her
situation and she supports her.
Roberto and Jose
Jorge ask Dalia questions about Felix Palacios in the park.
Covadonga tells
Arturo that Paulina has gone to Morelia to tell her family the news. He tells
her that he should have gone with her and Don Clemente agrees. They both decide
to go to Morelia right away.
Roberto and Jose
Jorge ask Dalia for a picture of Felix Palacios.
Rafael and
Silverio are discussing Paulina at home when she walks through the door and
tells them that she needs to tell them something and they sit down in the
living room.
Nora looks for
work in a factory, but the supervisor tells her that she would not be any good
due to lack of experience. Nora pleads with the supervisor.
Paulina begins
telling her family about her trip to Miami, that she was nearly raped and how
Arturo saved her. Just then, Arturo and Don Clemente walk into the house and
Arturo tells Paulina’s family that they are there to formally ask for Paulina’s
hand in marriage. Paulina is shocked and speechless as she and Arturo exchange
glances. Silverio says that he had no idea they were even dating, but said that
he was the type of man he wanted for Paulina. Don Clemente confirms his
surprise as well and that the relationship just happened quickly. Arturo
explains to Silverio and Rafael how after the trip to Miami, they just started
to see each other differently.
Nora insists and
finally convinces the supervisor to give her an opportunity. She begins to work
immediately.
Isaura shuffles a
deck of cards and Casilda asks her if she knows how to ‘read’ cards. Isaura
tells her that she is new to it, but she’ll try.
Arturo tells
Paulina, Silverio, and Rafael that the wedding will be the following day. All
of them are surprised, but Arturo explains that since Paulina is the woman for him
and the fact that he is away so often, they would like to get married
immediately. Silverio gives his approval happily, however Rafael has some
objections but also gives his approval. Arturo and Paulina explain that it will
only be a civil ceremony, not religious for the time being. They all toast for
their happiness.
Isaura ‘reads’ the
cards to Casilda and says that she sees a woman that will hinder the future of
her baby. Casilda automatically thinks it is Nora, but Isaura tells her that
she’s a beautiful blonde…..it’s Gisela! She explains how it could only be
Gisela because she fits the description. Casilda is horrified.
Roberto and Jose
Jorge meet with Juan Carlos regarding their progress on the investigation on
Felix Palacios. They explain how they have met with Dalia and that she has a
picture of him. Juan Carlos tells them they have to have solid proof before
printing anything and reminds them to proceed cautiously. As Roberto leaves his
office, Juan Carlos asks him about Paulina’s trip to Morelia and he reassures
him that there isn’t any type of emergency.
Arturo and Paulina
talk at a nearby park about what Arturo just did for her. She asks him why he
asked for her hand in marriage without even asking her first. He said that he
would support her and this is how he was going to do it. She asks about Nora
and he confirms that he loves her and will always continue to do so. She says
that she understands and suggests that he write her a letter explaining
everything to her. He isn’t sure about it. She tells him that if he can work
things out with Nora, they will cancel their wedding. He tells her that he will
only marry her until she has the baby and then they will get a divorce. This
way she will not be alone during her pregnancy. She explains that she doesn’t
want to tie him to her by going through with a religious ceremony. She then
looks down and reaches her hand to place it on his, but pulls her hand back and
looks at him with watery eyes.
Don Clemente calls
the boarding house and explains the situation to them.
Arturo writes a
letter to Nora explaining what happened with Paulina, asks her for forgiveness
and tells her how much he loves her.
Nora works at the
factory as the supervisor goes up to her and yells at her to work faster.
Luisa is going
into the house when Arturo approaches her and asks for her help. Luisa is
reluctant after Nora explained the situation to her, but she accepts the letter
and agrees to give it to Nora.
Isaura takes Nora
food and Nora tells her that she has been thinking about Arturo. Isaura gets
annoyed and tells her to forget about him. Nora feels that maybe she’s been too
proud, how he continues to insist that he doesn’t love Paulina and how much he
loves her. Isaura tells her that Arturo only wants her as a lover and nothing
more. Nora doesn’t believe her and says that she will look for him the next day
because she thinks they may still have a chance.
The people in the
boarding house discuss the upcoming wedding between Arturo and Paulina and
pregnancy in disbelief and agree to go to Morelia to support Arturo.
Isaura walks in on
Luisa and the butler as they discuss Arturo’s letter. Isaura agrees that Luisa
should give it to Nora, but Luisa tells her that it will have to be much later
because she has too many chores. Isaura tells her that she will more than happy
to take the letter to Nora. Luisa gives the letter to Isaura.
Isaura reads the
letter and vows that Arturo and Nora will never be together. She also decides to
find Silverio and tell him about his daughter’s pregnancy.
Don Clemente tells
Arturo that everyone from the boarding house came to Morelia for his wedding
because they are like his family.
Isaura gives Luisa
a ‘letter from Nora’ to give to Arturo and tells her to deliver it to him right
away at his hotel.
Nora at work is
told to work faster and although they don’t pay overtime, the supervisor agrees
to let her work two shifts.
Isaura goes to
find Silverio and runs into him and discovers that Paulina and Arturo will get
married that same day at the hotel.
Luisa gives Arturo
Nora’s letter and when he opens it, he finds his letter to her ripped to
pieces. Covadonga and Don Clemente tell him the message is clear as he runs out
of the room.
Arturo goes to
find Nora at Casilda’s house and finds Isaura. She tells him that Nora does not
want to see him ever again and that she has forgotten about him. He insists
that he loves her and wants to work things out with her. She makes fun of him
and his claims of love. She also asks him about his wedding later that day and
he tells her that he will cancel it if Nora will talk to him. She tells him to
leave and says that Nora doesn’t want him.
Paulina goes
downstairs in her wedding dress and her family is happy for her. They wish her
well.
Casilda thinks
about Gisela and Leonardo.
Isaura goes to
Nora’s job and insists that she accompany her to the hotel to run an errand for
Casilda and Leonardo. She also tells her that maybe she will run into Arturo
while she’s there. That convinces Nora to go with her.
Gisela visits
Leonardo at his office and begins to kiss him when Casilda walks in and pulls
her away from Leonardo. She yells at her for getting near her husband.
Isaura and Nora make their way through the hotel lobby and Isaura takes her right outside of the ballroom where Arturo and Paulina’s wedding is taking place. Nora sees them exchange vows and a kiss. She is in absolute shock and disbelief, while Isaura smiles evilly.

Isaura urges Nora
to accompany her to Hotel Virreinal to do errands for Casilda and Leonardo.
Nora consents because wants to finally listen to Arturo. She recalls that
Arturo always stays in this hotel. The two women go the hotel and walk through
it. Isaura stops in front of a banquet room. The door to this one is open and
inside Nora can see everything. Inside Arturo and Paulina are getting married!
She watches the wedding and them kissing when they are finally husband and
wife. She barely can believe it! –Casilda al same time arrives at the open door
of Leonardo office. Her husband and Gisela are kissing. She pushes them apart
and shouts, “You get out of here and stay away from my husband.” She shouts at
Gisela, ”How long have you been involved? Gisela retorts loudly: “a long time!”

then tells her that she is expecting Leonardo’s baby. Gisela is annoyed, turns
for the door, and leaves the office in a huff. --Isaura tries to convince Nora
that Arturo had only wanted to make fun of her. Arturo married Paulina for love
and he wanted Nora as a lover. Nora is not sure that Isaura is right. She says

anything to him. Otherwise, what reason had he sought her out and tried to
explain things to her so many times? Nora begins to enter the room to try to
get Arturo to clarify things. Isaura though stops her from interrupting the
wedding and being humiliated again. The two leave together and return to Nora’s
workplace. After leaving Nora there, Isaura laughs thinking, “Good! “Now Nora

Maria, begins to wonder if Julián is interested in her. On the telephone,
Renata promises her father that she will try to lend support to Diego and Mirta
so they can handle things. –Arturo and Paulina are discussing during the
reception how Nora reacted to the letter he wrote her. He tells her how Nora
tore up the letter and “didn’t leave any doubt that she wants nothing more to
do with him.” --Nora is distracted and distraught and she pricks her finger and
stains the fabric she’s sewing with blood. –During their reception, Paulina
tells Arturo that she’s to blame and feels very badly for all that has
happened. He answers that he doesn’t blame her for anything. Then Rafa comes
for them to introduce Claudia as his girlfriend. Paulina is surprised. She’s
irked and explains all about Claudia to Arturo during their time at the
university. –At Casilda’s, Leonardo comes to discuss and clarify things but she
cannot face Leonardo right then. So he leaves her alone. –Outside the “Blue Fly
Club” Diana’s taxi breaks down. She gets out of the taxi and sees José Jorge.
He offers to accompany her till she gets another taxi, but she refuses. –Renata
invites to Diego to have dinner but she feels should emphasize again she does
not want more than to be a very good friend. This hurts him a lot, but he hides
it from her. –After the wedding Arturo and Paulina go up to their room. They
share their room but not their bed. Arturo sleeps on the sofa and she sleeps in
the bed alone. He thinks about Nora, and Paulina thinks about him, and how she
much loves him. She decides that tomorrow she’ll seek out Nora and try to
clarify the things. –Dalia promises José to find him a photo of Félix Palacios
soon. She mentions that in the photo is another person. –Nora returns to her
rotten little room and thinks about her bad luck and of her life now.
The following day
Casilda is going to visit Evaristo and to tell him all about Gisela. Isaura
tries to stop Casilda from going there. At the same moment Gisela arrives at
the door. They shout at each other. Gisela says that Casilda doesn’t want
another scandal which might harm Leonardo somehow. If not, she warns her that
Evaristo is a man to be reckoned with! Casilda should think about their son and
how the baby could be left without a father. After threatening Casilda with
this, Gisela goes off. –Nora’s manager shouts that now Nora must pay damages
before being given an additional shift. She decides that she will have to sell
her mother’s sewing machine to get sufficient money to repay the company. So
Nora comes to ask Casilda to let her take the sewing machine. Despite the fact
her aunt left it to her in the will, Casilda refuses to give it to her.
Besides, she adds, Nora is not permitted inside the house ever, and it’s
because Nora is the same threat as Gisela: Leonardo won’t love her because of
Nora and therefore she shouts, “Leave and don’t come back again ever!” At the
same moment Paulina arrives and enters the room. She overhears this last bit.
Casilda greets Paulina and leaves the room. Nora turns and sees Paulina there.
Paulina tries to talk with Nora, but Nora won’t let her speak. Nora gets mad
and tells Paulina that there’s nothing she could possibly say of any interest
to her and goes. Isaura enters the room and suggests to Paulina that she has
heard something very delicate between Casilda and Nora concerning Leonardo, the
husband of Casilda. She insinuates that there is something between Leonardo and
Nora. Therefore, Paulina leaves beginning to think that Nora is not what she
pretends to be.
During the supper
at Diego’s, he, Renata, and Mirta talk about Nora. Diego recalls how he saw
Nora and Leonardo kissing that day. He believes that Arturo does not need women
like Nora. –Casilda talks to herself as Alejandra again. She says that ugly
people do not bear the blame for being ugly. –Diana thinks that she prefers to
not have children rather than allowing them to end up in the street as those
she’s watching were. –Ana Marie and Julián talk and begin to discuss Cathy. She
asks him if he thinks about remaking his life with another woman. He answers that
he doesn’t really know. —In the kitchen at Casilda’s Isaura enters and sits
down at the table with the servants. She pretends that she is sad about what
happened recently to Nora. She lies about the letter and about how she and Nora
accidentally saw Arturo and the other woman, the one he got pregnant, getting
married. Luisa is really upset at hearing this. They agree to tell Arturo
nothing ever about Nora again. –In Leonardo’s office Isaura and he talk. He
says tha he had preferred that Casilda not know anything of Gisela. But, then
it asks Isaura if she knew any about Nora. She pretends to be sad about what
has happened to her. She recounts to him the wedding to Paulina. Leonardo is
furious and answers that Arturo will have to confront him for hurting Nora this
way. Then he gives Isaura money for Nora. --Paulina warns Rafa about Claudia
and that she is a rotten person. –Nora collects some pieces of old fabric and
begins to sew clothes for the baby. Isaura visits Nora and leaves only a few
dollars out of all that huge quantity Leonardo generously had given her for
Nora. Isaura pretends that there isn’t any more to give her.
Leonardo explains
to Casilda that with Gisela it’s not more than passion and he has never loved
her as–. But in that moment they both realize that he has slipped up. Casilda
finishes with, "as Nora?" and Leonardo answers, "Yes, as
Nora." Casilda is resigned to the fact that Leonardo will not love her
ever and that she will be happy to be the mother of his son. –Paulina tells
Renata about the quickie wedding and it was only to avoid shaming her family;
she adds that Arturo does not realize that she loves him, and that he still
loves Nora. –Diana gets mad with the news of the wedding from Micaela and
Covadonga. She mocks the little hypocrite that trapped Arturo so easily by
jumping in his bed. –Paulina tells Renata what happened before at Casilda and
Leonardo’s and all she heard about Nora and Leonardo. They then erroneously
believe that now Nora and Leonardo are lovers and that Nora never loved Arturo
at all. So, Renata encourages Paulina to fight for his love. It seems Paulina
has the right to do this now. Paulina is irked and asks her: "How do I?
How?" --Rafa confronts Claudia with the truth and accuses her of messing
with him only to get even with Paulina. –Nora is sewing baby clothes. She
admits to herself that in spite of all and of her deceits she will love Arturo
all of her life. –Claudia answers to Rafa that Paulina lied him. Rafa thinks
that he’s not sure if Claudia has lied to him or not. –Covadonga and Pascuala
chat together when Cova discovers the old envelope from her nephew and the
notices the letter’s missing. She shouts at Pascuala: “Where is the
letter?" Nora is sewing the clothes for the baby when her manager sees
her. She has to admit that she is pregnant. The manager is upset and fires Nora
for not telling her anything before beginning to work there. – Rafa is in
Mexico on business. Paulina comes to see her brother and finds Claudia. Paulina
demands why Claudia continues with this farce. Claudia answers that Paulina
shouldn’t be pointing fingers at her. Particularly since her wedding was very
sudden and --, but before Claudia can finish speaking, Paulina blurts out that
the wedding was quick because she was pregnant. Rafa is by chance standing
behind his sister and hears all of this. He shouts at her and asks if in fact
she is pregnant.

Summary 8/11/04 Author: Marietta (---) Date: 08-11-04 20:06 PDT
Nora arrives in
Mexico at the pension of Don Clemente and meets Diana. Nora reveals that she is
pregnant and wants to see Arturo to tell him. Diana decides to take her to the
apartment after finding a set of keys. Diana says to herself that this is her
opportunity for revenge.
Isaura goes to
the church in Morelia and is told by the attendant that the padre has gone to
Mexico with Nora. Isaura gets directions to the convent where they are staying.
She is determined that Nora not see Arturo.
Renata and
Paulina are in Paulina and Arturo's apartment waiting for Don Silverio to
visit. Paulina has put out the photo of Arturo and her kissing so that Don
Silverio won't suspect that there is no love in the marriage. Paulina says that
Arturo is always attentive to her but at the same time he's cold. Silverio
arrives and takes Paulina and Renata out to eat.
Arturo and Pepe
Luis (the student from the pension) are at a place where children of the street
can come. The priest talks about the problem of parental indifference. He also
tells Arturo to remember that every child is a gift from God. (He says further
that people should not give food and money to children of the street because it
reinforces their wish to stay in the street. People should give money to the
institutions trying to get kids off the streets. Street children must be the
special social cause of this novela.)
Diana takes Nora
to the apartment and they enter. The scenes inside the apartment are very
painful as Nora sees first the photo that's out of Paulina and Arturo kissing.
Then she sees the beautiful nursery as Diana tells her that Arturo and Paulina
are happy and that Nora must face the fact that Arturo does not love her. Nora
weeps bitter tears. She resolves that she wants to have nothing more to do with
Arturo. Nora runs out on the street where Pascuala sees her.
Renata and
Paulina drop Silverio off. Isaura arrives and reminds Silverio that they've
met. She proceeds to tell Silverio that her seductress step-daughter wants to
ruin Paulina's and Arturo's lives by telling Arturo that he is the father of
the baby she is expecting. (Is Isaura evil or what???) Silverio looks amazed,
in his otherworldly way, that this could be happening. He later tells Paulina
who guesses immediately that the woman is Nora. He tells her that the real
father of the baby is Leonardo. Paulina looks very scared.
Alfredo is upset
because his record is not selling and he's afraid the company will withdraw it
from the market. Gertrudis has an idea. She finds a group of school girls and
has Alfredo (dressed to look a bit like Elvis) emerge in their midst while she
gives away CDs. She pushes the girls to have him sign the CDs. He expresses
gratitude for her constant attention and help.
Arturo and Pepe
Luis leave the institution that helps children of the street and set off in
different directions. Pepe Luis recognizes Nora on the street and sees that she
is pregnant. He reports to Arturo, who is then determined to find her.
Nora is resting
in the convent. Paulina comes to confront Nora. She claims that Arturo has sent
her to say that they are very happy and that Nora should leave them alone.
Paulina leaves. The scene closes with Nora on one side of the door, looking
devastated while Paulina looks very scared on the other side.
Gisela and her
buddies are playing cards. Betina mentions that she wants to sell her
apartment. The game ends and Betina says that inasmuch as she is blackmailing
Gisela regarding her relationship with Leonardo, there is no reason for her to
pay up what she owes Gisela from the game. Gisela says that if Betina follows
through with threats she will lose her social standing. Betina needs Gisela and
she must pay her gambling debts.
Gertrudis
completes the sale of her hotel to Evaristo. Evaristo then pays Heriberto a
commission for convincing Gertrudis to sell to him. They exchange comments on
Nora's sad plight.
Isaura arrives at
the convent and is pleased to hear that Nora has not met with Arturo. She gives
Nora her usual line about how Nora never learns. Nora says she will never
recover from the harm and pain that Arturo's deception has inflicted on her.
Arturo tells Don
Clemente that Nora is pregnant and that he arrived at the convent after Nora
has returned to Morelia. He resolves to go to Morelia to find her. He tells
Paulina that he is going to Morelia. She tells him that Nora is trying to
deceive him about the pregnancy -- Leo is the father. Arturo says he needs to
find out the truth for himself.
Gisela arrives at
Leo's office and asks the receptionist to give Leonardo a message which says
that she wants to renew the affair and will meet him at their usual place.
Shortly thereafter Leonardo arrives and finds Betina who wants him to sell her
apartment. He looks at the message from Gisela and then throws it in the trash.
Betina visits with him and gives him the key. She contrives to get the message
out of the trash and keeps it to use against Gisela.
Alfredo and
Gertrudis are walking arm-in-arm on the street, gloating over the episode with
the school girls. They see Nora and say hateful things about how horrible she
looks and how there is indeed justice, as Nora is now in the street and Alfredo
is a budding pop star (go figure on that one!)
Arturo arrives in
Morelia. He runs into Alfredo (who shakes at the sight of Arturo) and Gertrudis
who tell him where they saw Nora. He learns from the attendant at a nearby
hotel that Nora is staying there but is not available at the moment. Isaura
observes this and concocts a plan. Isaura pays off the attendant to steer
Arturto in another direction.
Isaura arrives at
Leonardo's shortly after Casilda does. Isaura is going to take Casilda to the
doctor. Both hear from Betina that her apartment is vacant and for sale. Isaura
takes Leonardo aside to ask if Nora can be hidden in the apartment so that
Arturo won't find her. Leonardo agrees.
Gisela waits for
Leonardo. When he doesn't arrive, she calls him at home. Casilda answers and
recognizes her voice. Gisela is unfazed, even as Casilda yells at her. She
decides that Gisela and Leo must be meeting at Betina's empty apartment.
Arturo has his
cab follow Isaura in her little red Beetle to the empty apartment where Nora is
(a smart move from our hero at last!) Isaura is bringing Nora some food. She
arrives first. Then Arturo comes to the door. Nora answers. Arturo says,
"So you are pregnant. And who is the father?" Leonardo is standing
outside the open door. He answers that he is the father. Casilda is in the
hallway. She hears this. In the previews it appears that Nora will lie to
Arturo in confirming that Leonardo is the father.

Bittersweet Revenge: Amarte es Mi Pecado... SUMMARY THURSDAY
8/12/2004 Author: cyndire (---) Date:

Arturo follows
Isaura in a Taxicab. In Mexico City, Renata tells Paulina to stop tormenting
herself about what Arturo will do in Morelia. Paulina says as much as she tries
she can’t help it, what if Nora convinces him once more with her lies?
Isaura tells Nora
she brought some food and she’ll serve it, and to be alert as someone will
bring some sodas. The door rings and Isaura thinks it is the person bringing the
drinks. Nora opens, it is Arturo, who looks at her and says “Then it is real,
you are pregnant”. Nora turns away; he follows and asks who the father is.
Leonardo arrives at that moment and says the baby is his. Arturo asks Nora if
this is true. She looks puzzled, and doubts for a moment, but then says yes,
the baby is Leonardo’s. She asks Leonardo to please leave her and Arturo alone
so they can speak.
Arturo: I can’t
believe it…
Nora: Why not,
you did the same to me…. You only wanted me as your lover…
Arturo: What
about our love???
Nora: Our
love????
Arturo: Yes Nora,
our love.. that is why I have been looking for you despite everything that has
happened… I still love you… that is why I need to clarify many things with you.
Nora
spontaneously starts sobbing… her hands covering her face in grief.
Nora: Arturo… I
love you, you don’t know how much I love you and need you… if you could just
imagine the terrible days I have been through since we ended our relationship
my love… it has been a nightmare since then. If it weren’t for this baby I am
expecting I don’t know what I would’ve done with my life, truly, I don’t know…
Arturo: Nora, I
love you….
Nora then starts
laughing cynically…. with a smirk on her face… Arturo looks at her, surprised
by the change.
Nora:: How easy
it is to fool a man…. Arturo, Never believe in the tears of a woman…. Leonardo
put me in this apartment. Here, I live with luxury and without needs. Leonardo
pays the most minimal of my desires. At last, I have the life I always wanted.
Arturo: So.. you never loved me….
Nora, looking into his eyes: Never, go away, don’t ever come
looking for me again, because besides Arturo, I am very happy, the same as you.
Arturo walks to
the door and looking back at Nora says: Good Bye.. and leaves.
Torn, Nora stays
behind and starts sobbing uncontrollably while she says to herself “Arturo, my
love”. Isaura consoles her and tells her she did the right thing. Nora tells
her he told her he still loves him and that it hurt her so deep to lie to him
because she still loves him.
Leonardo arrives
and asks her if she is OK. He tells her she can stay in Betina’s apartment
while it is sold. Nora surprised to learn the apartment is Betina’s, thanks
Leonardo. As soon as he’s gone, Isaura starts apologizing to Nora for not
telling her the apartment is Betina’s. Nora tells Isaura they are leaving.
Isaura says it is too late, that tomorrow she’ll find another place for her.
Paulina wonders
how things went for Arturo, what if he and Nora reconciled and he leaves her?
What will she do without him?
Arturo cries for
Nora, heartbroken at "their place” by the fountain. He decides he will do
everything to tear her out of his heart and never come back looking for her
again.
A furious Casilda
tells Isaura she overheard the conversation where Leonardo said Nora’s baby is
his. Isaura tells her to calm down, and to not even thing of recriminating
Leonardo about it, and to leave everything to her.
Leonardo arrives
at Betina’s apartment and finds Isaura waiting to return the keys. He wants to
know where she went but she tells him he should go take care of his wife and
baby and that she will take care of Nora. Leonardo gives Isaura more money,
then tells her he will open a bank account in her name where he will deposit
monthly and clarifies that the money is for Nora.
Paulina asks
Arturo how things went. He tells her she was right, “ Nora cheated me all this
time and I am sorry I made such a mistake. I don’t want to ever hear her name.
The Nora I thought I knew has died”. Arturo needs to be alone. Paulina leaves.
Isaura extracts
the letters from Alejandra’s love affair with Jacobo. She starts reading them…
Arturo talks to
Abuelo about what happened in Morelia. Abuelo says it was for the better, but
Arturo confesses he still loves Nora, and that after that, it will be hard for
him to believe in love again.
Casilda catches
Isaura reading the letters. She reads and recognizes Alejandra’s handwriting.
Isaura tells her that the old house cook had them and that when Alejandra fired
her she took them with her, but that she came back and wanted to sell them to
Casilda. Casilda tells Isaura she’ll read the letters and decide.
Paulina tells
Renata that Arturo is very disappointed from Nora. Renata tells her this is the
opportunity she was waiting for to conquer Arturo’s heart.
Paulina decides
to resign from the Orellana Organization. She tells Juan Carlos she can’t live
knowing that he still has hope she will accept him. Juan Carlos tells her she
shouldn’t, and then offers her to telecommute, if it is better for her, as long
as she accepts to continue working for him.
Casilda wonders
who Alejandra’s love interest was. She remembers Joaquin Arcadio and wonders if
he is her dad.
Joaquin Arcadio
visits Felipe and talks to him while nobody is home, and before Felipe, he
acknowledges him as his son. Felipe thinks: why did he come, he never wanted to
recognize him as his son before.
Casilda decides
to “buy” the letters. Isaura tells her that with the money she’ll take care of
it all, as the saying says, “with money the dog dances”.
Nora arrives at a
pigsty, an old, dirty apartment with dripping faucets that Isaura found for
her. Nora asks Isaura to please ask Casilda to give her the sewing machine.
Isaura promises her she will find some sewing work for her. Nora thanks Isaura
for all her help.
Isaura gives
Casilda the letters from Alejandra. Casilda notices that they are love letters
and thinks that maybe in one of them she will find out who her father is.
Isaura says maybe he was married.
Casilda discovers
from the letters that Alejandra had an affair with Jacobo Guzman, that she is
his child, and that Nora is her sister.
Silverio finds
Isaura and Nora in the street. Silverio calls Isaura. Isaura pretends she
doesn’t know him. He insults Nora and tells her she is who is trying to destroy
Paulina’s marriage by making Arturo believe her baby is his, but he knows it is
Leonardo’s. Nora asks Silverio to tell her who said that. Isaura looks nervous,
but then dares Silverio to tell. Silverio says he can’t say who. Betina
overhears all this conversation and believes it.
Casilda is
surprised to know Nora is her sister and thinks that the story is repeating
itself. Just as Alejandra and Nora’s mother, Nora is having a baby from the
husband of her own sister. She asks Isaura if Nora knows the truth, and if not,
to not tell her.
Juan Carlos asks
Sergio to continue Jose Jorge’s investigations, just to make sure that is
assassination did not have another motive. Sergio is nervous.
Betina arrives at
Nora’s home. She tells her she knows she is in need and she will bring her some
clothes to fix and leaves. Later, while playing cards, Betina shows her friends
a very costly shawl and tells them it needs fixing and she will take it to
Nora. She then proceeds to tell them that Nora is expecting a baby and that
Leonardo is the father. Gisela listens in silence, but Betina then asks why she
remains so quiet. After the rest leave, Gisela asks Betina why she has made all
that up, but Betina says it is true.
Felipe’s family
finds out about the visit of the mysterious man. Damiana describes him and
Felipe’s wife recognizes him as Joaquin Arcadio. Julian says he will
investigate.
Isaura talks to
Evaristo and asks if he is still interested in Nora. He says he is not. Isaura
then says if he has forgotten Nora still owes him money. Evaristo tells her she
knows perfectly well that Pilar payed him before she died. Isaura reminds him
he still has the promissory notes that she gave him.
Betina takes the
shawl to Nora for repair. She then gives Nora the note Gisela left Leonardo and
tells her she should use it to blackmail Gisela. Nora refuses to consider it,
but Betina asks her to keep it just in case she ever needs it.
Gisela shouts at
Leonardo for leaving her waiting for him. He says he simply didn’t want to see
her. She says of course now that Nora is having his baby he doesn’t want to
know anything about her. Leonardo says it is none of her business. Gisela then
slaps him, and swears revenge against him and Nora.
Paulina, Renata
and the others admire the cover of the new issue of Prisma magazine, where
Jessica Maldonado appears as the cover model. Jessica arrives and Juan Carlos
asks her out for dinner. Paulina wishes Juan Carlos happiness as he leaves with
Jessica.
Arturo decides to
keep the shattered letter he wrote to Nora as a reminder: every time he feels
the impulse of going after her, it will remind him of how insignificant he was
for Nora.
Felipe’s wife
arrives at Joaquin Arcadio’s house. She wants to know why he visited Felipe and
left without leaving his name.
Arturo asks
Paulina how she’s been feeling. She says ok, just a bit of cravings. He asks
her what kind of cravings, and she tells him she craves bread from Manolo’s
bakery. Arturo goes to get some.
In Morelia, the
police come to Nora’s apartment and tell her they have come to claim immediate
payment of the debt she owes Evaristo.
Paulina eats the
bread Arturo brought. Arturo says he has to leave. She says OK. Arturo finds
the picture of the wedding. Paulina says she put it out so her father could see
it. Arturo says it is OK and walks towards the door, but Paulina then tells him
she has something to say. She says she knows he has always been an honest man
and that now she wants to be honest. She tells him she wants him to know that…
she loves him with all her soul.
Tomorrow’s
previews:
- Nora makes
Arturo believe that her child is Leonardo’s.
- Paulina takes
advantage of this and confesses her love to Arturo.
- Casilda comes
to Nora’s and slaps her and tells her she knows about the baby.

enter Nora’s room and ask her to pay her debt to Evaristo or they will have to
arrest her.
Paulina tells Arturo
that she loves him and he quickly refers back to the night in Miami when she
took the initiative between them; Paulina denies it. Arturo looks upset and
tells her that he doesn’t know what to think and leaves.
Nora tells the
officers that she doesn’t have any money to pay with and they take Betina’s
shawl as collateral.
Joaquin tells Ana
Maria about Felipe’s “parents”. He explains that Felipe’s father didn’t marry
his mother because she was indigenous. Ana Maria is surprised to learn of this
news. Joaquin asks her for permission to continue visiting Felipe and she
agrees.
The officer gives
Gisela Betina’s shawl and explains how he scared Nora. He tells Gisela that he
will be available if she needs any further assistance. Gisela gloats over her
victory.
Isaura and Nora
discuss what happened. Isaura claims that she doesn’t have any money to help
her with and Nora worries about her situation.
Ana Maria tells
Julian that she doesn’t believe everything Joaquin told her and he assures her
that he will investigate further. They hug as Kathy walks in. When Ana Maria
leaves the room she feels jealousy.
Isaura goes to
see Evaristo, but he denies that he sent anyone to collect the money from Nora.
They both wonder who sent them.
Pepe Luis asks Arturo
how he is doing, since he’s been quiet lately. Some kids at the halfway house
fight.
Isaura tells Nora
that Evaristo did not send the officers, as Nora continues to think about how
she will pay him the money. Isaura tells Nora that she had some tablecloths for
her to work on, but she cannot leave them there. Nora pleads with her to leave
them, because she desperately needs the money for food. Isaura declines.
Arturo tells
Clemente what Paulina confessed to him earlier and how he wonders if she planned
everything between them. Clemente assures Arturo that Paulina is a good girl
and would never do such a thing. Arturo is not at ease and tells Clemente that
he will ask Paulina for a divorce as soon as the baby is born.
Evaristo realizes
that Gisela was the one who sent the officers to collect the money from Nora.
He threatens her with divorce if she continues to meddle in his business.
