Subject: Synopsis of "Amor Gitano" Author:
Robyn Barnette Date: 04-17-2000 20:04 Robyn's version of the theme to
"Amor Gitano" AN INNOCENT GYPSY, A GUILTY MAN The 18th century was a
period where the decadent aristocracy imposed its unjust laws to the heiress
class, a time in which gypsies were not considered human beings. During this
period develops a fascinating and beautiful historical journey where the
daughter of La Marquesa Astolfi, Adriana de Astolfi, and the poor gypsy Renzo
"El Gitano" swear their eternal love to each other. It is the kind of
love that struggles against the pressures of hatred, bitterness and prejudice
from those who are against it, and the pressures that ruin the moral concepts
of family honor and society's good will. Adriana is a poor condessa who assures
to her dying mother that she will take care of her younger and irresponsible
brother Humberto. Rodolfo Farnesio is from one of the most powerful and
wealthiest families in Florence, La Familia Farnesio. He wants to marry
Adriana, even though Adriana continually refuses his requests to marry her.
Soon, Rodolfo discovers that Humberto had been involved in a serious crime
where he had murdered a man. He uses this as a foundation to marry Adriana and
declares to Adriana that if she does not marry him, he will press charges
against La Marquesa Astolfi, which would send Humberto to prison at the Isla de
los Condenados (Island of the Damned). On the other hand, if Adriana does marry
him, he would drop the charges. Adriana accepts marrying Rodolfo for the sake
of Humberto. Rodolfo points the finger at Renzo for the crime after being based
on a false declaration from his faithful servant, "El Jorobado" Dino.
The gypsy heir to the fortune of La Familia Farnesio, Renzo is sentenced to the
prison at the Isla de los Condenados. Between the walls of the prison, Renzo is
surrounded by sadness, the unjust laws, and class prejudice. He meets Pedro
Milleni with whom he begins a sincere friendship. On the other hand, Adriana
informs that Renzo is an innocent man who had been condemned for the murder
that Humberto committed. Tormented by the remorse, Adriana decides to embark on
the island to tell Renzo the truth. THE DAMNED ISLAND, A DAMNED MARRIAGE Upon
her arrival to the Isla de los Condenados, she meets Renzo and develops strong
feelings for him. Renzo has never seen her before, but he couldn't pass up the
opportunity to fall in love with such a beautiful princess. Adriana and Renzo
get married, and they both map out a plan to escape from the island. Adriana
chooses to be called "Luna," the free woman, so she can't reveal her
true identity. Meanwhile, Rodolfo continues to invoke forces that exert not
only a pull on Adriana, but also a strain on her marriage to Renzo. Dino
recognizes the wedding ring that Rodolfo gave Adriana when she originally
married Rodolfo, and Adriana must return with Rodolfo. From this, she leaves
without returning to see Renzo or explaining to him who she really is. However,
she leaves behind a symbol of a moon so Renzo remembers her. Renzo and Pedro
escape the Isla de los Condenados and head out to sea in a small boat. Soon,
the boat they travel in crashes. They are both rescued by a fisherman. Pedro
regains his knowledge and appears as "El Conde" Pedro Minelli. He
says that Renzo is his son. Meanwhile, when Adriana returns to the Castillo de
Astolfi, she comes down with a terrible illness and suffers amnesia. Soon, she
has forgotten everything, including Renzo. Renzo arrives at the Castillo de
Astolfi to reclaim Adriana's love, but he is just in time to witness Adriana
and Rodolfo renewing their vows. Renzo feels hurt and betrayed. At the same
time, a doctor reveals to Adriana that she is pregnant. Manina, Renzo's mother,
is hired to work at the Castillo de Astolfi. Adriana's child is born, but
Rodolfo orders Manina to take the child away and hide at the Castillo Minelli
where the child receives shelter. RENZO'S BETRAYAL, ADRIANA'S HEARTBREAK Manina
returns to el Castillo Farnesio, but she is run over by a carriage driven by
Isa Valenti. Manina is seriously wounded and rushed to a hospital. Soon,
Adriana recovers her memory and discovers that the child she gave birth to also
actually belongs to Renzo. She looks for Renzo to tell him the truth. However
Renzo already learned an even more significant truth — the truth of his past.
Infiltrated with lies about Adriana, Renzo runs away with Isa and marries her, leaving
Adriana alone with nothing except a broken heart.

Subject: EPISODE I -- Broadcast on
4/23/2000 Author: Robyn Barnette Date: 04-25-2000 20:29 VILLA FLORENCIA El
Castillo Farnesio: Rodolfo's unfaithful servant Dino "El Jorobado"
knows that Rodolfo knows about the gypsies and how to make their lives
miserable. Dino tells the story about these gypsies and how they live, what
they do, their dance as a ritual, where they came from, and other things about
these "things." Rodolfo doesn't like these gypsies, these idiots, and
considers these gypsies mundane. But he has other things to worry about right
now, because he informs Dino that he is going to celebrate a wedding and
present a ring to a very beautiful woman. Beautiful woman....only one name can
come to mind: The woman who is the child of her dying mother. That woman is
Adriana de Astolfi....
El Castillo Astolfi: A horse and
carriage trots down the path toward the castle of La Marquesa Astolfi. Fray
Quintin has arrived. The sweet and beautiful Adriana had been waiting patiently
for Fray Quintin to come. She doesn't say anything, but she hugs Fray Quintin
knowing that he has brought the medicine to rescue her dying mother Constanza
de Astolfi from her serious illness. Constanza is in her bed, barely able to
move or speak. Aya Petra holds on to her hand, giving hope to Constanza that
she will be okay and not succumb to her illness. Constanza tells Aya Petra to
look after and protect her two children when she passes away: Adriana de
Astolfi, and her brother, the irresponsible jerk himself Humberto de Astolfi.
Adriana walks in, wanting to know how her mother is feeling. The mere sight of
her dying mother brings Adriana to tears. Adriana can't bear the pain
within....
Now the summary: Isolda, acting like a
drunk, serves one of the patrons at the bar a large bottle of wine. She is
pleased to see one of the members of La Marquesa Astolfi present at the bar,
Humberto. Humberto came to look for Isa Valenti, and he is not pleased to see
Isolda acting the way she was. Isolda advises Humberto to enjoy himself and not
to suffer. Humberto doesn't care — all he wants to know where Isa is. Isa
happened to be having her palm read by Zokka. Zokka reveals to Isa a terrible
circumstance — that Isa is to witness or be involved in a terrible crime where
a man is murdered. Isa doesn't believe what Zokka reveals. Renzo "El
Gitano" is playing beautiful music on his violin, gliding the violin wand
back and forth along the violin's thin strings. The gyspies are hypnotized by
the violin's sweet-sounding melody. The melody echoes all the way to El
Castillo Astolfi, where Adriana hears the music. She steps out into the balcony
and becomes mesmerized by the melody of the violin. The music takes over her
consciousness, taking her away from the agonizing situation with Constanza and
transporting her to a moment where she can feel her soul liberated. As Adriana
looks over at the crystal blue pond that surrounds her castle and the lush
green trees in the background, she asks Aya Petra where that music is coming
from. Humberto rides in his carriage and pulls up to where he sees Renzo
playing his violin and putting Isa into a trance with its sweet sound.
Humberto, somewhat irritated by Isa's behavior, drags Isa away. Isa promises
Renzo that she will come back and give him much passion, while she struggles
with Humberto to let go of her arm. At the bar, Daniel, a man dressed in a
green cape and outfit and who looked like the annoyed Robin Hood, walks up to
Isolda. Isolda thinks that Daniel was here to look for Isa, and she informs him
that Isa is not here. Too drunk to effectively communicate, she presents Daniel
with a beautiful woman for him to get to know. Daniel thanks Isolda for the
offer, but he turns the woman away and leaves. Dino, who was hiding somewhere
in the back, follows Daniel out of the bar. Meanwhile, Isa is all over Humberto
as he rides the carriage. Humberto pulls over and both he and Isa get off the
carriage. They play around, chasing each other in the forest, kissing,
laughing, giggling, and just having fun. Rodolfo and his crew are just in time
to crash and burn a special wedding ceremony: The marriage of Santiago and
Maria. Rodolfo and his crew trot through a dirt path surrounded by a series of
trees and bushes until the arrive at the ceremony. The priest has declared
Santiago and Maria husband and wife, and everyone at the ceremony applauds,
cheers, and throws all kinds of flowers at the couple. Rodolfo also applauds
and congratulates Santiago for marrying Maria. Everyone diverts their attention
from the couple to Rodolfo, and for one thing they are not happy he is here.
They are also shocked when Rodolfo reveals a terrible secret about Maria: That
she was Rodolfo's girlfriend? [I think the interpretation is wrong:
Rodolfo is claiming droit de seigneur] Maria's father cannot believe what he had just heard. Rodolfo's crew
gets off their horses and pushes everyone out of the way to go after Santiago.
They kick and punch him, beating him down to the ground. Everyone at the
ceremony is shocked by what they were witnessing. Santiago warns Rodolfo that
he will not get away with this. Renzo arrives to save the day and orders
Rodolfo and his crew to let go of Maria. Rodolfo looks up and sees
Renzo....Renzo? Who is this long-haired bastard that he has not seen before?
Adriana doesn't want to see Constanza go. The emotion is pouring from Adriana.
Constanza is her life, and she can't bear to witness her dying.
Meanwhile, back at the ceremony, Rodolfo
asks who this person is that wants to start something with him. Renzo reveals
his name. Renzo....El Gitano. Gitano? Rodolfo hates Gitanos. Renzo again orders
Rodolfo and his gang to let go of the girl. One of the gang members draws out
his sword, prepared to attack. Zokka hands Renzo a sword, pointing it's sharp
end directly at him. Rodolfo orders his crew to back away because he would be
the one Renzo will have to get through. While Humberto and Isa are in the
carriage riding down a path surrounded by many trees, Daniel pulls up aside
them and declares that Isa belongs to him. He adds that Isa is his body and
soul, and wants to kill Humberto to claim Isa. An enraged Humberto has heard
enough bull from this Robin Hood imbecil, gets off his carriage, and tackles
him off his horse and into the ground. Both of them yank their swords out and
are prepared to fight. They stare at each other intensely. A stunned crowd
witnesses Renzo and Rodolfo clashing their swords at each other while they're
on their horses riding around in circles. Soon, Renzo backs up for a moment and
fiercely charges toward Rodolfo. Rodolfo violently swings his sword at Renzo,
attempting to slice his head off. He misses. However, he gets a break when his
swords knocks away the sword from Renzo's hand. Renzo quickly gets off his
horse and finds a large wooden stick. He uses it to attack Rodolfo. He kncoks
the sword off Rodolfo's possession. Rodolfo's anger intensifies and he charges
toward Renzo. Renzo strikes the right leg of the horse, and the horse
collapses, sending Rodolfo tumbling into the dirt ground. As the fight was
going on, Constanza says her final wishes to Adriana. Constanza will be very
happy up there, in God's hands. Adriana doesn't want her mother in God's hands
— she wants her mother to be in the hands that were holding on to her. Moments
later, Constanza silently passes away. Adriana has lost her mother forever.
Humberto and Daniel were dueling it out with Isa looking on. Humberto hated
fighting this way, so when Daniel knocks the sword from his possesion, Humberto
grabs Daniel's arm and slaps his face silly. Soon, they began using fists
instead of swords. Humberto gets the upper hand when he kicks and punches
Daniel so hard that Daniel is knocked out cold. Humberto can't believe what
just transpired right in front of him, and neither can Isa. Isa demands to know
what Humberto de Astolfi just did. Humberto himself didn't know what he just
did. Isa thought Humberto killed Daniel, but Humberto doesn't believe that
Daniel is dead. Frantic, both Isa and Humberto get on their carriage and quickly
trot away. Dino "El Jorobado" pokes his head out from behind a tree.
He had witnessed the fight between Humberto and Daniel. Renzo finds a sword
from the ground and hurls it back to Rodolfo. He is not finished with Rodolfo.
They both duke it out again. Renzo again knocks the sword from Rodolfo's
possession and like a professional fencing champion, flings the end of his
sword upward and against Rodolfo's face. Rodolfo staggers backward, a deep cut
spewing blood from one side of his face. He looks at Renzo intently, knowing
that this is far from over. Dino staggers over to Daniel, asking about Isa. Isa
Valenti...yes, Dino knows who she is. Dino takes out a dagger and stabs Daniel
deep. He then slides a ring off Daniel's fingers and saves it. Renzo and Zokka
ride way in their horses, as Rodolfo looks after them. He declares that he,
Rodolfo Farnesio, the most powerful man in La Villa Florencia, will get his
revenge on Renzo "El Gitano".
Later that evening, Adriana is at the
funeral of Constanza. Fray Quintin blesses her by outlining a cross on her body
with his hand. Adriana says to Aya Petra that she needs some comfort and
support from her right now. Meanwhile, on the other end, Rodolfo storms into
his room at the castle, kicking the doors open and nearly breaking them down.
He is frustrated and downright angry and orders everyone to get the hell out.
Rodolfo vows revenge on that rotten Gitano, that scum of the earth Renzo. An
old man holding a burning torch lights a straw hut on fire in honor of Constanza.
As he lights the hut on fire, he says for Constanza to rest in peace. The hut
burns intensely until it is reduced to ashes. Adriana seeks comfort from Aya
Petra after losing her mother. Adriana notices Humberto walk in. Adriana walks
over to Humberto, who is very distressed emotionally. Humberto doesn't want to
reveal what he did, but Adriana is curious. She wants to know what happened.
Humberto mumbles that he killed a man. Adriana is stunned. She couldn't believe
her ears as to what she heard. Her brother, killing a man? Humberto can't
believe it himself. He feels so guilty for the crime he had just committed, but
he can only hope that nobody found out. Outside the hallway, Adriana embraces
Humberto, knowing that everything is going to be okay. She believes that he is
not guilty for what he did. Dino shows Rodolfo the ring he found and explains
to Rodolfo that Adriana's brother Humberto was the one who murdered Daniel.
Rodolfo grins while he scrutinizes the ring carefully as if it was a valuable
piece of art he had not seen before, knowing that it and what Dino had
explained to him was the break he needed. Zokka and Renzo hide when they notice
two of Rodolfo's gang members looking for him. The members pause near an area
they think he is at, then continue riding through the forest. The gypsies are
performing a ritual of dance and song underneath a tent and with burning
torches surrounding the area. Renzo and Zokka arrive to their ritual. Manina
notices Renzo alone. She approaches Renzo and asks what happened. Renzo doesn't
say anything. Manina notices a deep gash on his right hand and asks how he got
it. Renzo got it in a duel with Rodolfo Farnesio. The name sends shivers down
Manina's spine. It was a terrible circumstance that Renzo messed around with that
individual, and messing with the most powerful man in Florence will bring
terrible consequences. He is capable of wiping everyone out from existence,
including some poor Gitano like Renzo. Dino says to Rodolfo that with this ring
he can trade it in for money or use it to marry Adriana de Astolfi. Rodolfo has
better ideas. Did Dino think that Rodolfo would trade that ring in for money?
Why would he? After all, he is the wealthiest man in Florence. However, he
would like to add something to that wealth and make his life complete. After
Dino said to him earlier that Humberto had killed Daniel, Rodolfo declares to
Dino that tomorrow he will go after Humberto de Astolfi and charge him for the
crime of murder and hurl that worthless @!#$ to the Isla de los Condenados. But
marrying Adriana sounds very tempting....Rodolfo thinks he knows just what to
do.
Adriana informs Humberto that his
mother, Constanza, has died. That augments more pain to the pain he had already
been feeling after he supposedly killed Daniel. Aya Petra says to Adriana that
she has gone through too much suffering. Her mother is gone and she won't come
back. One of Rodolfo's gang members relays the message that El Gitano has
appeared. What??? That scumbag Renzo is back? Rodolfo is infuriated hearing
this news and wants to know where this Gitano is. Renzo's somewhere around the
palace perimeter. Late in the evening, under the bright full moon, Adriana
looks up at the night sky, thinking, knowing that her mother is up in a special
place. She suddenly hears the sounds of the violin playing again and again
wants to know where that music is coming from or who is playing it. She paces
closer and closer to the music, and as she does she feels taken away by its
lush sound. The music has seized her consciousness and has transported her to a
period where all the sadness in her life has been phased out. She draws closer
and closer until her consciousness becomes seized not only by the music, but
also by the sight of the individual playing that violin — Renzo.

4/30/2000 Author: Robyn Barnette Date: 05-04-2000 15:45 Late in the
evening, under the bright full moon, Adriana looks up at the night sky,
thinking, knowing that her mother is up in a special place. She suddenly hears
the sounds of the violin playing again and again wants to know where that music
is coming from or who is playing it. She paces closer and closer to the music,
and as she does she feels taken away by its lush sound. The music has seized her
consciousness and has transported her to a period where all the sadness in her
life has been phased out. She draws closer and closer until her consciousness
becomes seized not only by the music, but also by the sight of the individual
playing that violin — Renzo. There he was, sitting against the tree, a small
campfire burning next to him. Renzo glided the violin wand back and forth along
the violin strings, and as he did Adriana felt more closer not only to the
music but also to him. In fact, it got so close that Renzo suddenly noticed
someone was watching him. Renzo looks up and wonders who had been listening in
on his music. Adriana steps back and hides behind a garden of bushes and violet
flowers. Renzo gets up and wants to know what this unknown woman was doing
here. Adriana didn't say anything, and all she could do was turn around and
flee. Renzo calls after her to wait, but Adriana was gone. Renzo instantly gets
on his horse and tries to follow this woman to find out who or what she is.
Meanwhile, this woman, Adriana, is running through the bushes. She looked like
a real life ghost floating through the gardens. Adraian can feel Renzo quickly
catch up to her. She instantly finds a place to hide, behind a large tree, and
as she does she catches her breath. Renzo pauses and looks around to find out
where she was, and after being unable to find her he leaves. Adriana can only
thank God that Renzo didn't discover her. Rodolfo looks at his face in the
mirror and examines the deep gash he received after the sword fight with that
gitano Renzo. His goofy servant Dino asks if Rodolfo will consult with the
police force in the capital city to go after Humberto or if he will take the
law into his own hands. Since Rodolfo was the most dominant man in Florence, he
could do whatever he wanted. He could charge Humberto for the crime, but his
eyes was on a bigger prize. What Rodolfo was going to do tomorrow was that he
will try and claim Adriana de Astolfi. And while Rodolfo was thinking about
that, Adriana wandered through the trees until she heard a horse's gallop
approaching her. Adriana suddenly faints, or looks like she had fainted. The
horse's gallop was not coming from Renzo, though — it was coming from Patricio.
Patricio gets off his horse and asks if Adriana was all right. Adriana could
only grin upon Patricio's presence. Renzo returns to his gypsy refuge where
Zokka greets him. Renzo, who was really not in the mood to talk, walks with
Zokka to a tent and explains to Zokka about this woman he saw in the forest. Woman?
Zokka really wanted to know what woman Renzo was talking about. Renzo could
only describe the sight of her as wearing some kind of white sheet, and he
could only remember a small portion of her face. At the castle, Humberto tells
his dead mother Constanza de Astolfi that he killed a man, Daniel, and he has
never felt so guilty in his life. Adriana also tells Patricio that her mother
Constanza died hours ago. Aya Petra explains to Patricio that Adriana is a very
religious woman who also has some type of condition that affects her head.
Renzo is sleeping at the gypsy's refuge. Zokka looks at the gash that Renzo
received on his right hand. Kneeling next to Renzo, Zokka says something about
Renzo being her soul, proof that Zokka is in love with Renzo. She turns over
his hand and discovers that his palm is completely clean.
At El Castillo Astolfi, Humberto and
Adriana are praying. Humberto still feels guilty for his crime, and he is about
to find that out when Rodolfo breaks in and discovers the two. Adriana can
sense that Rodolfo was here to see her. Rodolfo escorts her away from Humberto
and tells her that it's a shame she had to be this beautiful. Adriana feels
insulted by this remark, especially for the sake of her mother. Rodolfo is
sorry that he had to do this at such a bad time, but he then asks if Adriana
knew what Humberto did yesterday. Adriana knew all right, but she wasn't
expecting that Rodolfo had known about it, too. Rodolfo was really pushing it
by hinting that he wanted Adriana to be his wife. Adriana was not ready to
disclose her propositions for marriage, and that upsets Rodolfo. She insisted
that she talk about this later. Rodolfo didn't want to wait for later — he
wanted to do this right now. He grabs Adriana by her arm and drags her toward
him, angrily telling her that he thinks distinctly about marriage, and right
now he is thinking about marrying her. As he smells her hair, he then brings up
the ultimatum of them all: Either she accept marrying him or he will send her
brother Humberto to the Isla de los Condenados. The warning sends a shiver down
Adriana's spine and freezes her dead in her tracks. But Adriana refuses to back
down. Rodolfo gives Adriana time to seriously think this over, and while she
does he escorts Humberto out of the castle and to his carriage. Humberto had no
idea what he was in for until Rodolfo explains to him that he is going to be
sent to the Isla de los Condenados for the murder of Daniel Discarpa. Humberto
is left speechless. He thought nobody would find out. How did Rodolfo? Isa is
ballistic. She can't believe that Patricio told her that Humberto had been
caught by one of Rodolfo's henchmen for the murder of Daniel Discarpa and a
possible arrest was forthcoming. She wanted to drag this messenger out into the
forest and rub his face into some bushes or some other shrubbery. Instead, Isa
first bites Patricio's hand, then stomps on his foot. Aya Petra then comes out
and reveals that Patricio was right — Humberto had been caught for what he had
done. Isa "thanks" Aya Petra for the news, then as she takes a bow
she grabs some grass and hurls it toward Aya Petra. Now she wanted to go after
Aya Petra. Patricio holds her back as Isa struggles to free herself. Humberto
had already learned of Rodolfo's proposition to Adriana for marriage, and he
hints to Adriana to accept marrying him so he doesn't end up dying at the Isla
de los Condenados. But Adriana doesn't love Rodolfo, and that was something
Humberto had to overcome. Fray Quintin informs Adriana that news of Humberto murdering
El Conde Daniel Discarpa has spread throughout La Villa Florencia. Both Adriana
and especially Humberto are shocked by this news. Humberto didn't know what to
do. Did he think Isa was going to support Humberto now that he committed the
criminal act of murder? Not a chance. Isa dances around Humberto like some
idiot because she knew that she had NOTHING to do with the murder of Daniel.
Humberto would have to do this and do this alone. Isa was not assisting him in
any way. Rodolfo raises his glass for a toast with one of his fellow henchmen —
a toast to signify that justice will be dealt with, and to the fullest extent.
However, was Rodolfo himself involved in a murder many years ago? Renzo wanted
to find out this important piece of information from Manina. However, Manina
didn't know, or if Rodolfo was guilty for murdering his father. She can't
remember what happened. Renzo presses the question again, but Manina repeats
again that she didn't know if his father was dead. Renzo explains to Manina
that he noticed a woman in the forest, but didn't know anything about her — her
name or where she came from. He had a somewhat vivid imagination as to what she
looked like. He wanted her to return again, so he could get a better
assessment.
Adriana says to Fray Quintin that
Humberto killed Daniel Discarpa and will be sent to the Isla de los Condenados.
Fray Quintin is shocked. He knows that Humberto would never survive at that
island. Nobody has. Adriana also adds that to save Humberto from the possible
hell that exists at the damned island, she is thinking of accepting Rodolfo's
proposition to marry him. Fray Quintin couldn't understand what Adriana was
thinking, accepting to marry the most powerful man in Florence to save her
brother? Fray viewed this as a monumental mistake Adriana was making, and to
give Adriana an idea of what Humberto is to face if a prisoner, he, Adriana,
Patricio, and Aya Petra viewed guards on horseback escorting a group of
prisoners, old, dirty, some who haven't shaved in over 100 years, linked
together by a chain. Adriana asked one of the prison guards who those prisoners
really were, what they have done. The guard replied that those prisoners are
all dangerous and they were all being taken to the Isla de los Condenados. The
sight of those prisoners made Adriana's stomach turn. Aya Petra could only
comment that they never return to that place. Renzo couldn't understand why
Zokka just kissed him. He loves her...but as a sister. Zokka appreciated that
gesture, but she doesn't want it that way. Renzo wanted to explain more, but
Zokka didn't care. Zokka's feelings for Renzo were coming out now, and she
wanted Renzo to know what she was really feeling inside. She kisses Renzo
passionately. Meanwhile, Rodolfo's henchmen have located the gypsies refuge and
charge toward it. The gypsies all disperse the area immediately as the henchmen
destroy everything that is there, from tents, to props, to other materials
necessary for the gypsies' survival. They also attack some of the gypsies. One
of the gypsies asks why the men were doing this, why this destruction? The
gypsies were people of peace. The henchmen were doing this destruction for one
reason — Renzo. He was Manina's son. What did they want? Rodolfo's henchmen
wanted Renzo not only for the sword fight the other day, but to also map out a
plan to charge him for the murder of Daniel, a crime that Renzo really did not
commit. The news stuns Manina and some of the gypsies there. Adriana looks at
Rodolfo directly. Aya Petra warned Rodolfo that Adriana was still in mourning
or losing her mother. Rodolfo didn't care — he wanted an answer from Adriana.
He looked back at Adriana intensely, patiently awaiting Adriana's decision.
Will she or won't she marry Rodolfo? The pressure was too overwhelming for Adriana,
but she handled it well and declares to Rodolfo that she accepts his
proposition to marry him, for the sake of Humberto. Adriana would probably
regret that decision for the rest of her life.

on May 7, 2000) Author: Robyn Barnette Date: 05-13-2000 02:05 Adriana looks at
Rodolfo directly. Aya Petra warned Rodolfo that Adriana was still in mourning
or losing her mother. Rodolfo didn't care — he wanted an answer from Adriana.
He looked back at Adriana intensely, patiently awaiting Adriana's decision.
Will she or won't she marry Rodolfo? The pressure was too overwhelming for
Adriana, but she handled it well and declares to Rodolfo that she accepts his
proposition to marry him, for the sake of Humberto. Adriana would probably
regret that decision for the rest of her life. Rodolfo, on the other hand,
wanted to hear Adriana say exactly that. Rodolfo raises his glass and proposes
a toast to Adriana for their love. Adriana could only look at him and wonder if
their love really ever existed or will ever exist. She didn't want to drink to
that, but she accepted Rodolfo's proposal to marry her and that was all she
wanted to do. Rodolfo knows that Adriana really doesn't love him, but he has
other ideas that will make her learn to love him. Patricio, leaning his head
against the carriage, is disgusted that Adriana had to accept marrying Rodolfo.
One of the gypsies declares to Rodolfo's henchmen that Renzo is an innocent
man. Manina adds that Renzo is her son and would not do anything illegal. The
henchmen don't buy that. They argue that Renzo is a criminal and guilty for the
murder that he supposedly was involved in. Manina knows that they are lying,
and she lets them know. The henchmen ignore her and attack one of the gypsies
until Manina declares where Renzo is. Manina agrees to tell the henchmen where
Renzo can be found. Zokka and Renzo sit against a large tree and look over at
the small campfire burning in front of them. This was the way Zokka wanted it.
She didn't want to love Renzo as a brother — she wanted to love him, period.
Zokka wanted to sleep with Renzo tonight, but Renzo is thinking of something
else. He can't get his mind off that woman he saw in the forest the other day.
The image of her white flowing dress replayed itself in his head. As Adriana
and Aya Petra ride in the carriage through the forest, Adriana explains to Aya
Petra that she has committed to marry Rodolfo Farnesio, to save her frother
Humberto from the damned hell that exists at the Isla de los Condenados. Aya
didn't know that Adriana would agree to marry that bastard, and she could only
wonder if Adriana was doing the right thing. Adriana thought she was doing the
right thing, but she also knew that she would pay a hefty price for it.
Humberto celebrates being spared the penalty at the Isla de los Condenados by
making sexual love to Isa at the local bar. He explains to Isa how his sister
Adriana agreed to marry Humberto to save his life. Isa, in an otherwise
interesting position where she is showing off more than just her leg, would
have loved to spend time with Humberto in prison at the island. A fat girl
interrupts Isa and Humberto's moment and wants to spend a private moment with
Humberto. The fat girl begins flirting with Humberto, touseling his hair.
Humberto instantly gets enraged and attempts to choke the girl. Several people
in the bar immediately rush in and separate the two. One of them asks Humberto
what is wrong with him. Humberto himself didn't know. Ever since he killed
Daniel, he has been in a nervous wreck.
One of the henchmen drags Manina to the
prison where she is to be locked up until she tells him where Renzo is. Manina
begs to let her go and she will tell him. Renzo happened to be located at the
same tree branch playing another musical piece his violin while Zokka was
sleeping. It was one of many musical pieces that motivated Adriana late that
evening to stand outside the balcony of her castle and think about who that
gypsy was playing the violin. She remembered exactly what he looked like with
the long greasy hair, the black outfit, the aggressive look on his face.
Listening to that music touched her in many ways and brought a sense of feeling
in her heart. Unfortunately, she is now suffering too much because she has
committed herself to Rodolfo. Renzo looked confused as he rode into the gypsy's
refuge. The gypsies have informed him that La Villa Florencia is looking for
him. The people there know his name. What? How? What were they talking about?
Even Zokka didn't understand what was going on. Renzo was accused of something.
But what? Manina held all the cards at this point, and right now she was
dealing them out to the prison guards. One of them explained that Renzo was
responsible for the murder of Daniel Discarpa. Manina knew that was a flat-out
lie. The guard ordered Manina to be taken away. Rodolfo is hiding behind some
trees, peeking out at the lake where Adriana is about to bathe herself in the
pond. At this point, Rodolfo is quite glad to have married her, and it shows. Adriana
first dips her foot into the water, then uses her hands to splash some water on
her face. The water felt as cool and crisp as the night before when she was
dreaming about that gypsy playing the violin. She even tastes the water from
her fingertips, licking them, relishing in their sensation. By now, Rodolfo is
feeling a bit sexually aroused, but it doesn't compare when he witnesses
Adriana disrobe herself until she is wearing virtually nothing. Adriana, naked,
right in front of him! Rodolfo could only wonder if Adriana was insane. Adriana
jumps in the water and swims to the center of the lake where she bathes
herself, splashing water all over herself, laughing, giggling. Aya Petra wanted
Adriana out of the water and put on something decent. Suddenly Rodolfo decides
to drop by and visit. Aya Petra was not pleased that one, some male was here to
see a naked woman; and two, that male being Rodolfo Farnesio. She is even more
disgusted when Rodolfo sees Adriana's clothes hanging on the tree branch nearby
and sniffs them. He says that they smell beautiful, just like Adriana is. Aya
Petra could only glare at Rodolfo, for not only was Adriana marrying a bastard,
but also a pig. Renzo marches to the prison along with Zokka, until he bumps
into Isa. Isa is delighted to have met Renzo again, who has never been more
gorgeous. Renzo is not in the least bit interested, much less flattered by
Isa's affection. Aya Petra wants Rodolfo to march himself out of there,
especially now that Adriana is, well, not wearing much. Rodolfo wanted to see
more of this, though. After all, she is going to be his wife so what better way
to begin the celebration by seeing Adriana naked? Adriana will never subject
herself to the hell that she is about to go through with Rodolfo. But Adriana
is going to be Rodolfo's wife, so she better get used to it. The least that
Adriana can tell Rodolfo is for him to leave because she is not wearing
anything. Renzo meets with the prison guards and declares who he is. He wants
his mother free from the prison, even though he is not responsible for the
crime. The guard at the front gate orders the other guards to take Renzo in.
Zokka could only wonder what Renzo was doing or what trouble he was about to
face. The guards take Renzo in to see Manina. Zokka cries, knowing that Renzo
was about to confront major trouble. Patricio and Rodolfo draw out their swords
and begin to duel. Adriana looks on as the two battle each other. Rodolfo gains
the upper hand and aggresively tries to finish off Patricio, swinging his sword
all around to the point that Patricio isn't able to battle this beast. Patricio
falls backwards, and Rodolfo stands over him, the end of his sword inches away
from Patricio's neck. Adriana quickly gets out of the pond and covers herself.
Rodolfo threatens to kill Patricio, but Adriana warns him to let Patricio go
because Rodolfo has done enough damage. Rodolfo has half a mind to kill
Patricio instantly, but he vows that his greater benefit will be when he
returns and make the life of La Marquesa Astolfi the worst.
Renzo is so glad to see Manina. He
explains that he is not guilty for what is happening, this supposed crime he is
supposely guilty of. Manina wonders what they are going to do. Nothing,
according to the prison guards, who were sick of seeing this emotional moment
between them. The guards immediately separate both Renzo and Manina. Renzo
demands that the guards let go of Manina. He is still confused as to what is
really going on, that is until one of the guards shows him a ring — the same ring
that "El Jorobado" Dino removed from Daniel's finger when he stabbed
Daniel and thwarted the blame on Humberto for the crime of murdering Daniel.
Renzo looks at the ring, then at the guard. He is quite shocked. The ring
didn't look familiar to him at all. Everything was a lie. It couldn't be. The
guard who held the ring in his fingers claimed that Renzo knew about this ring
and his intentions to murder Daniel. Renzo is furious. He knew he was being
blamed for something he never did. He wants to go after that guard, but the
grasp of the other guards holding him was too firm for Renzo to do anything.
Back at El Castillo Astolfi, Humberto's father tells his son that many small
things have brought a huge burden to his family. It is a pain that the family had
so much happiness for him, and now this. Everything is so sacred. Humberto had
been accused for the murder of El Conde Daniel Discarpa, but now someone else
is being accused. This selfesh person Humberto doesn't seem to understand what
he has done, has he? It hasn't gone to his thick skull yet. Aya Petra explains
to Humberto to come back to his family, since Adriana saved him. Humberto still
doesn't get the message, not even the message that Adriana is marrying some
jerk and is about to deserve her pain. Adriana slowly walks down the steps
together with Aya Petra. She is not happy that she is suffering the way she is,
after her mother died and after she agreed to marry Rodolfo. Lucrecia asks if
Adriana needs anything, whether it's money or anything else. Adriana needs some
space. She tells Lucrecia that she is marrying Rodolfo Farnesio. Lucrecia
wondered how she could surrender herself to that powerful man. Adriana could
only wonder the same thing. Isa Valenti meets Zokka at the gypsys' refuge.
Zokka retorted that if Isa was looking for Renzo, he was not here. Where was
Renzo? Renzo was being accused for a murder he didn't commit. Isa laughed and
acted as though she felt sorry for Zokka. She then remarked that she can
imagine Renzo with someone else, someone other than Zokka, preferably her.
Renzo is brought to trial, where Dino says that he saw with his own eyes Renzo
murder Daniel Discarpa. Renzo knew that this was a lie, and he tries to go
after Daniel. The judge asks if this was true. Dino gives his testimonial to
the judge, describing exactly what happened. Certainly Renzo knew what he was
doing, robbing Daniel of the ring. This was typical of the gypsies — they
weren't people of peace; instead, they were thieves. Renzo was furious. He
never stole anything in his life. He knew someone else had been responsible for
the murder and Dino was trying to "prove" to the judge that Renzo did
murder Daniel. But who REALLY murdered Daniel? Who was behind this entire plan
to frame him, Rodolfo Farnesio????? Humberto approaches Adriana at the forest
and thanks her for marrying Rodolfo Farnesio. Yet, he still feels guilty inside
because he knew Adriana is about to confront hell. Meanwhile, little did
Adriana know that the gypsy she saw playing the violin the other evening,
Renzo, is about to confront his own hell. Renzo had been found guilty of the
crime for murdering Daniel Discarpa, and the guard announces Renzo's
punishment: A life sentence at the Isla de los Condenados. Manina is stunned
and saddened by the news. Her own son, guilty. Isa laughs it off as if it were
some joke. As for Renzo, he simply says nothing. Deep inside he knew he was
innocent. There was a hard lesson about that, however — the most guilty part of
innocence was innocence itself.

USA, Subject: EPISODE V -- (Broadcast on
May 21, 2000) Author: Robyn Barnette Date: 05-26-2000 20:49 * - Indicates
that character's name is not known at this time Adriana asks Aya Petra how to
get to the Isla de los Condenados. She wants to get on a boat and travel there,
probably to see what it was like...or to be more exact, to rescue the gypsy
heir to the Farnesio fortune, the gypsy she had met a few days ago in the
forest, Renzo "El Gitano." Aya Petra warns her that she is crazy to
think about going to that island. Nobody survives on that island. Underneath
her sacrifice, Adriana was doing this to keep her brother from going there. Aya
Petra shrugs off Adriana's request and tells her to forget about it. Fray
Quintin arrives and wants to speak to Adriana alone. Renzo introduces himself
to an old hag who has been on that island as long as he can remember. This old
hag's name was El Conde Pedro Milleni, and he had long gray hair and a huge
beard, and wore dirty clothes he probably found washed ashore. Renzo tells
Pedro that his name is Renzo Gitano. Rodolfo is having dinner with La Marquesa
Astolfi one evening, proud to proclaim himself as a member of the family.
Rodolfo informs Astrid de Mariner that he hasn't yet decided on when a ceremony
will take place where he is to marry Adriana. Humberto stands up and requests
that he wants to look for Adriana, and Aya Petra also joins him. But Rodolfo
orders them both to grab some wood because this time he is going to look for
her. After all, Adriana is to be HIS wife. Fray Quintin explains to Adriana
that she is taking a serious risk in going to the island, but Adriana advises
him that she has it in her heart and feelings to go there. Suddenly Rodolfo
arrives, and right away he orders Fray Quintin to go away from his wife
Adriana. Adriana tells Rodolfo about plans for their wedding. First, she wants
Fray Quintin to be the minister to conduct the actual ceremony. Second, she
wants the ceremony to take place at La Villa Florencia. Rodolfo wants to know
all the information about this marriage and doesn't want a single thing to go
wrong, but he thinks he will go along with Adriana's suggestions for their
marriage. While Aya Petra was putting the final touches on Adriana's jewelry,
she wanted to know what Adriana was thinking. Aya Petra was so worried for
Adriana, because she is marrying this jerk and is planning on going to the Isla
de los Condenados. Adriana advises her that she has it in her soul and her
heart to overcome the huge obstacles she is about to encounter and wants to do
it alone. Aya Petra could only watch her walk away and wonder if Adriana really
does have what it takes. Aya Petra doesn't like this. She knows Adriana can't
endure this. Adriana explains that she will be okay and there is nothing to
worry about. And after being tormented by so much pain and heartache, this was
what Adriana wanted to do. Patricio steps in and suggests to Adriana that if
she needs help he will go with her. Aya Petra doesn't want Patricio to go to
the Island, either. Adriana ignores Aya Petra's pleas and invites Patricio to
join her on a boat and embark upon the Isla de los Condenados....
ISLA DE LOS CONDENADOS The Isla de los
Condenados was a very barren and deserted island, an island filled with nothing
except rocks, sand, and the endurance of harsh abuse. This was a damned
paradise, and those who sailed by the island knew of it by its famous large
rock. Those who sailed by the island also knew to keep their distance away from
it, for one false move to the island or to the inhabitants who guarded the
island could lead straight to disaster. The island housed hundreds of
prisoners. Some of these prisoners have been on the island throughout most of
their entire lives, others just recently. However, they were sent there on the
island for having committed numerous crimes. Their punishment was nothing but
constant labor. Every single day, from dawn until dusk, the prisoners were
treated like indentured slaves, shoveling dirt or building houses with
hand-crafted tools or with their bare hands. They ate very little, if not,
nothing at all, and if any of the prisoners wanted any type of food, the prison
guards gave them nothing except water. The water came from the ocean nearby,
and it was severely contaminated with sewage and other polluted effluents.
Sometimes, the guards didn't give any water to those prisoners who wanted it. Other
times, the guards would force the prisoners to sever one of their own body
parts and eat it as food. There were days when the weather would get so hot and
dry that prisoners who worked too long and went without decent nourishment
would just suddenly become too exhausted and faint unconscious. The guards
would whip and beat the prisoners and force them to wake up. If the prisoners
were unconscious or dead they would place their bodies in a deserted area on
the island and allow the birds who flew around the island to pick at the dead
bodies. The Isla de los Condenados was not a prison — it was hell. On this
particular day, a new prisoner has joined the others on the Isla de los
Condenados: Renzo. Wearing his traditional gypsy Robin Hood outfit, Renzo looked
like he was volunteering his time to help the other prisoners. In reality,
however, Renzo was serving his sentence, and this was what he had to do until
he was no longer alive. Renan, Jonás, and the other prison guards trotted
around the island on their horses, checking on the other prisoners to see if
they were doing their job. If any of the prisoners slacked off for even a
second, they would whack him with a belt and tell him to keep working. There
was no sleeping on this job, but if any prisoner would like to do that, the
guards can arrange that and put him to sleep...permanently. Isa Valenti was
playing hard to get with Humberto, and based on what Isa was wearing with that
deep cut in her dress she sure was hard for Humberto to get. She ran around in circles
here and there until Humberto grabbed her and kissed her passionately. Isa
wanted to know if Adriana was taking it well marrying Rodolfo. Humberto was
confident that she was, but he wasn't thinking about that right now. All he
wanted to do was love and kiss and hug Isa and take her like a dog, because he
knew she was a bitch in heat. Rodolfo wanted everything to go smoothly for his
wedding with Adriana, but he was not expecting this. He showed up at El
Castillo Astolfi and brought these beautiful white flowers to present to
Adriana as they were about to get married. Suddenly Aya Petra explains to him
that Adriana is not here. Rodolfo is annoyed. He demanded to know where Adriana
went. Aya Petra explains that she and Patricio went somewhere, that somewhere
being the Isla de los Condenados. Rodolfo wanted to break a piece of furniture
or create more wrinkles on Aya Petra's already 100-year-old face. He understood
that Patricio had been such a major distraction. He doesn't care about that,
though — right now, he is going to look for Adriana and marry her whether she
likes it or not. That beautiful princess is not going to ditch him during this
prominent moment in his life. Aya Petra tells Rodolfo that Adriana has been
very tormented, but that doesn't compare to the torment he is about to deliver
to Adriana. He drops the flowers all over the floor and leaves, furious. Aya
Petra looked at the flowers all over the floor and realized that this man
Adriana is going to marry is a disgrace. Isa Valenti and Humberto look through
the trees and see Adriana stepping down from a carriage with Patricio assisting
her. Isa asks Humberto if that is his sister, and Humberto tells her that it
is. Humberto is so proud of Adriana and comments that she is very special.
Astrid de Mariner wanted to know why Rodolfo wanted to marry Adriana. Why
didn't he choose her? Astrid's servant tells her that Adriana was very young
and beautiful, and Astrid threatens to choke her. She thinks that the marriage
between Rodolfo and Adriana will not survive.
At the Isla de los Condenados, one of
the workers is so exhausted that he just suddenly becomes unconscious and falls
flat on the rocks in front of him. Jonás demands that the prisoner get up and
continue his job. He then takes out his belt and whacks the prisoner with it,
but it was no use. It looked like the prisoner had died. Renzo recommends Jonás
to stop abusing this poor worker, but Jonás orders Renzo not to move a single
muscle. Jonás continues to whack the prisoner with his belt, further demanding
the prisoner to get up. Renzo, disgusted, throws down his pick ax in protest.
He says to Jonás that the prisoner has worked very hard. Pedro Milleni also
agreed, for Renzo had a reason to defend the prisoner. Jonás laughs it off and
trots away, as Renzo assists the prisoner and helps revive him. The other
prison guards demand the other prisoners to continue working. Fray Quintin is
proud of Adriana for making this decision to get married and arranging it in
this manner. Now Adriana is going to leave soon, to head to the Isla de los
Condenados. Fray Quintin wasn't expecting to hear Adriana to say that. He wants
her to listen to him — he prohibits her to do what she is planning on doing. He
tries to reason with Adriana. After all, she is to get married momentarily. But
Adriana has other ideas, and nothing can stop her. Not even Rodolfo....well, at
least not yet. Humberto did his last-minute workout before his supposed
wrestling match, performing some push-ups and other aerobic exercises to get himself
loosened up. He and another opponent, Balthazar* (?), began their match,
locking arms into each other and battling each other, muscle against muscle,
determination against determination. Isa and the others who witnessed this duel
cheered and applauded, as they saw a good battle. In the end, Humberto decided
to try something he had seen in a recent joust and shoulder tackle Balthazar.
He then punched Balthazar's face hard until Balthazar was down for the count.
Humberto raised his arms in victory. Back at El Castillo Astolfi, Aya Petra
presents a small souvenir to remember Adriana by. She had warned Adriana dozens
of times to stay away from that island, but it was for the best of Adriana to
go there and save Renzo, to reveal the truth of her marriage, and the truth of
how he ended up there, but most importantly to meet Renzo for the first time.
What happened at the forest was long gone. Adriana gives Aya Petra a couple of
letters that she wrote last night. In tears, she says goodbye to Aya Petra and
thanks her for all the support she had given her in her time of crisis. Adriana
and Patricio get on a horse and trot away, but Adriana couldn't help but look
at Aya Petra for perhaps the last time. It looks like Humberto did not win his
match after all. After Balthazar regained some consciousness, he exerts enough
energy to kick Humberto in the balls. That really had to hurt, and Humberto
knew it. Humberto then retaliates by grabbing Balthazar's foot and throwing him
onto the ground. Isa Valenti dances prances around like a cheerleader.
Balthazar gets up again, and Humberto punches him in the stomach, then decides
to finish off Balthazar by throwing him into a stack of woven baskets. Humberto
wins again, but his victory is short-lived when Balthazar kicks him in the
balls again. Humberto decides not to take any more of anyone kicking him in his
nice balls, so he decides to finish Balthazar off by using his knee to knock
him out. He wins again. Sebastian congratulates Humberto by shaking his hand,
but that celebration is short-lived again when Balthazar gives Humberto an
ax-handle from behind. Balthazar then gets Humberto into a strangle hold, but
Humberto frees himself and elbows him in the stomach, then in the face. And to
finally do away with him, he kicks Balthazar hard in his face, such that blood
spews out from his mouth and spreads all over the playing surface. Humberto
wins, and this time it was for real. Everyone who saw the fight congratulates
Humberto, then decide to fight with each other. Manina, Zokka, and the others
who were there escape immediately, and head out to find Adriana to stop her
from going to the island.
Patricio and Adriana arrive at a barren
oceanfront, prepared to depart to the Isla de los Condenados. There were
hundreds of people on the island, waiting to get on the small boats parked near
the large rocks. Patricio explains to Adriana a terrible circumstance: That
Rodolfo sent a gypsy to this island to save her brother from being here
instead. Adriana immediately wondered if that gypsy was who she thought it was.
Was it? She didn't have a flashback. All she thought about was that Rodolfo
somewhat set her up to get married to him. After Humberto freshened up and got
away from the chaos that was still going on after his match, he heard a loud,
rough voice call his name. Humberto turned his head and focused his attention
on a large horse and carriage. He then noticed the individual poking his head
out from the carriage: Rodolfo Farnesio. Rodolfo demanded to know where his
sister Adriana de Astolfi was. He figured that Humberto knew where Adriana
would be. Unfortunately, Humberto did not know. He knew that she had not been
at the castle. Rodolfo became tired of hearing all this bullshit. He stepped
out of his carriage and threatened Humberto to a real fight if Humberto did not
tell him where Adriana was. Rodolfo wanted to know where his wife was, and
wanted to know NOW. He wanted his wedding with Adriana, and he will kill at
will if he didn't get any answers. But Rodolfo's wedding would have to wait,
because Adriana happened to be going to the Isla de los Condenados. She and
Patricio looked around for a moment, and out of the corner of her eye, she
could not believe who was also ready to join them: Dino. Dino staggered around
until his eyes somehow captured the image of the woman with the long black hair
and white dress. Adriana held her breath and felt Dino sneaking up toward
her....and passing her by inches. She was fortunate that Dino did not recognize
her. She looked over and saw Dino catching up with Jonás at a small boat nearby
and chatting with him. She didn't know what they were saying, but she was
relieved that Dino didn't find out she was here. Dino presents Jonás with a
small bag that contains the hard evidence that sent one Renzo "El Gitano"
to the damned island. Adriana and Patricio found a boat to travel on. They both
trudge through the ocean water until they arrive to the boat. Adriana watches
her step and climbs into the boat, trying to find space to sit with the other
inhabitants. Patricio follows her, but Jonás holds him back. Patricio pleads to
Jonás that her sister is on the boat, but Jonás doesn't care to hear that. An
old man pushes the boat, and the boat slowly begins its departure. Adriana
looks on as Patricio struggles with a couple of salvages who pushed him back,
sending Patricio tumbling backward into the water. Patricio tried hard to catch
up with the boat Adriana was on, but as the boat distanced itself from Patricio
there was little he could do. He tried again to race after the boat, but again
the salvage wrestled with him and dunked him into the water. Adriana called out
his name, but Patricio turned around and walked away.
Manina, Zokka, and another gypsy arrived
just in time to witness Adriana sail away to the Isla de los Condenados. Manina
tried to chase after the boat, but it was too late. Zokka and the other gypsy
held her back. Manina was sad and frustrated. She tried again, but it was no
use. The boat was already long gone. Adriana looked back at the island she was
leaving. She wasn't leaving behind Patricio — the reality sunk in that she was
leaving behind a lot more, and now she would have to deal with this by herself.
Adriana and the others that traveled with her on the boat had boarded a larger
ship. Once they were on the ship, they set sail to the Isla de los Condenados.
Adriana sat by herself surrounded by other poor inhabitants. One of them,
Lucrecia* (?), felt like picking a fight with her. Lucrecia commented to
Adriana that she was very beautiful, then she looked at a ring on Adriana's
finger and noticed that she was a princess. Lucrecia sounded almost jealous.
Adriana wanted to know who this woman was that was starting something with her.
Lucrecia was happy to tell everyone that Adriana could talk. She accuses
Adriana for being an impostor and grabbed Adriana by her arm, dragging her.
Adriana said nothing. Lucrecia was directly talking to Adriana, but one of the
inhabitants separates the two. Lucrecia whacks this inhabitant, then Adriana
tries to wrestle with Lucrecia. As Lucrecia was about to smash her face,
Adriana raises her arm to block the oncoming hit, then levels Lucrecia with a
right hook. Another one tries to fight with Adriana, but Adriana fights her off
easily. She then positions herself in a fighting stance, looking over Lucrecia.
While Adriana was involved in a fight,
Humberto and Isa were sleeping together. They were not wearing anything.
Humberto tells Isa that he loves her, and they kiss passionately. He also tells
Isolda the same thing, despite both he and Isa didn't mind Isolda dropping by
to check on the two and to clean up around their bedroom. Aya Petra is upset.
She tells Fray Quintin that she tried everything she could to talk Adriana out
of leaving. Even worse is that Patricio also went with Adriana. Aya Petra
notices Patricio on horseback heading toward them. She is surprised and wonders
why he didn't go with them. Patricio couldn't go because the salvages from the
island and Jonás did not obligate him to go, much less allow him to go. Now
Adriana is all by herself going to the Isla de los Condenados. The news upsets
Fray Quintin, but upsets Aya Petra more. Jonás orders everyone on the ship to
be quiet. He wants to know what is going on. Lucrecia states that Adriana is an
impostor. Jonás then asks Adriana who she is. Adriana doesn't reveal her name,
just a woman of all women, someone who is going to the island to rescue a
gypsy. Jonás escorts Adriana to one of the ship's masts and sits her down.
Lucrecia still wanted a piece of Adriana for being an impostor, Jonás has had
enough hearing Lucrecia and everyone else on the ship. He again orders everyone
on the ship to be quiet. Aya Petra could only wonder when Adriana, the little
princess, will return to her. Fray Quintin announces that he will go there and
bring Adriana back. The announcement shocks both Aya Petra and Patricio. Pedro
Milleni and Renzo and view the blue ocean and listen to the waves washing up on
the island. They both await the arrival of women on the island, and this was
the first time that the island had allowed women. Before long, however, the
ship arrives and so does everyone on board. Pedro Milleni and Renzo watch as
people dressed in tattered and ripped clothes begin exploring this forbidden
territory. Jonás privately asks Adriana what her name is, since for some reason
he developed a sense of affection for her. Jonás helps Adriana out of the boat
by picking her up and placing her nicely on the soft island sand. Adriana looks
around the island and familiarizes herself with its barren and empty feeling.
Little did she know that Zokka was also there with the rest of the group. From
his distance, Renzo sees Adriana and is immediately incensed by her radiant
beauty. He couldn't believe such a beautiful princess ended up on the island.
He asks Pedro who that woman is. Pedro responds thatit was some poor woman.
What was this woman's name? That's what Renzo wanted to know. Now that Adriana
was on the island, Jonás was interested in finding out from Adriana the purpose
of being here. He thinks that she came here to see her prince. He looks around.
There was no prince there. Was it because her prince died? Well, maybe tomorrow
morning it might be her prince, because he and the other prison guards were
planning on killing one of the island's prisoners. In that case, if her prince
has died, Jonás was left with nothing to do except put her back on the boat and
send her back to where she came from. Adriana refuses to leave the island. At
El Castillo Astolfi, Patricio announces to Aya Petra that Rodolfo Farnesio has
arrived and has been searching for Adriana. Maybe now Humberto will get to the
bottom of this. Maybe the mystery of Adriana's sudden disappearance from his
marriage ceremony will be revealed. Fray Quintin is instantly terrified, and
both he and Patricio head off into another room so Rodolfo does not see them.
Rodolfo marches into the castle and confronts Aya Petra. There is one question,
one thought, that comes out of his mouth: Where is Adriana. He came to see Aya
Petra, because maybe SHE knew where Adriana could be. Rodolfo would tear this
castle to ruins to find Adriana if Aya Petra didn't answer. Aya Petra promised
to tell Rodolfo where Adriana is. She hands Rodolfo a letter that Adriana
handed to her before she left. Rodolfo reads it, and now the big piece to the
puzzle has been put in place.
Jonás is feeling very intimate right
about now, and tries to make love to Adriana. Adriana is not in the mood to
make love to this dirty, filthy jerk. What's more, she is not returning to La
Villa Florencia. Suddenly a young man orders Jonás to leave this woman alone.
Adriana directed her attention to that man and she couldn't believe that this
man was the same man she had seen the other evening. His name — Renzo "El
Gitano."

Subject: EPISODE VI --
(Broadcast on May 28, 2000) Author: Robyn Barnette Date: 06-03-2000 02:30
(Unfortunately I ran into problems when I wrote the summary. The tape I
recorded the episode on got messed up during recording and some of the scenes
got "scratched" and the audio got garbled that I could not hear the
actors or actresses speak or understand what they were saying. So I made the best
out of a bad situation and guessed as to what happened. My sincere apologies
about this! :-( ) Jonás is feeling very intimate right about now, and tries to
make love to Adriana. Adriana is not in the mood to make love to this dirty,
filthy jerk. What's more, she is not returning to La Villa Florencia. Suddenly
a young man orders Jonás to leave this woman alone. Adriana directed her
attention to that man and she couldn't believe that this man was the same man
she had seen the other evening. His name — Renzo "El Gitano." Jonás
almost wanted to laugh, but he was in no laughing mood. He wanted to know what
this Renzo character was saying. What Renzo was saying was that this woman he
was seeing for the first time was his wife? Adriana couldn't believe it, the
writer of this summary couldn't believe it, and neither could Jonás. Jonás
asked Adriana if he was telling him the truth, if she was indeed the wife of
this guy she herself never met before, the wife of this gypsy. Renzo caressed
Adriana's face, and the feeling of his hand on her face persuaded Adriana to
respond that yes, she was his wife. Wait...how can that be? Jonás didn't
understand, but he believed her even though he could sense that she was lying.
As Adriana and Renzo walked past Jonás and joined the other inhabitants who
departed the ship they had traveled in, Jonás could only figure out the answer
to that question. Jonás then escorted Adriana, Renzo and the others to work,
yelling, screaming, ordering them all that there was work to be done. That what
they were on this island to do, and that's what they were going to do. Rodolfo
was puzzled. He still could not figure out for one thing, why Adriana referred
to him in the letter as "Señor Farnesio." He would've preferred
Adriana call him Rodolfo, or better yet Alejandro Camacho. Secondly, why
Adriana ditched him and headed off to this unknown place which he has yet to
figure out where she went. Maybe Adriana succumbed to too much pressure being
forced to marry him and Adriana wanted to get away from it all, or at least
that's what Aya Petra somewhat told Rodolfo. Rodolfo asked Aya Petra is
Humberto joined Adriana in some way, but Aya Petra assured Rodolfo that Adriana
went by herself. Isa Valenti tumbled down a hill and was aghast taking one look
at the huge castle in front of her. It's majestic structure was just this short
of....majestic. Isa pranced around the fields surrounding the castle like some
lunatic. Meanwhile, Astrid de Mariner looked out her bedroom window and watched
Isa. Astrid was not in the least bit pleased with this lunatic, this
"little girl" who can never rise to her level. Isolda hinted to
Astrid that if Isa can work at the castle, as a maid or servant or some other
poor wretch, Astrid can gain the opportunity of capturing the sweetheart of La
Marquesa Astolfi, Isa's future husband Humberto. Humberto is offended when one
of the guys at the bar refers to him as "The Criminal of La Villa
Florencia." He goes after him, but misses whacking him by this much.
Everyone at the tavern, including Humberto, is drunk.
At the Isla de los Condenados, one of
the prison guards escorts everyone down a hill and to the area where all the
prisoners worked. Everyone walked down the dirt rocky path, and as they did
Renzo held Adriana's hand and tried to get to know who this woman was, his
"wife" so to speak. He had never seen her before, but she had already
seen him. Jonás still didn't believe that they were married. Renzo and Adriana
walked toward where Jonás and another prison guard was, and the prison guard
wanted to know who was his woman. He also didn't believe they were married.
Renzo confessed and admitted — or at least tried to — that indeed both he and
Adriana were married. They just "happened" to get married. Renan did
not buy that. He was pushing Renzo to supply some kind of proof that they were.
Jonás chewed on a slice of pineapple and spit it at Renzo. Renzo wanted to go
after Jonás, but Renan held a gun right to Renzo's head, daring to pull the
trigger at any moment. Renzo held back and both he and Adriana walked away,
with Pedro Minelli following the two. Fray Quintin and Patricio were hiding
behind a wall, keeping themselves out of Rodolfo's view. They knew Rodolfo was
looking for them, but moreover Adriana. Fray Quintin almost sneezed, but Patricio
knew how to keep him from sneezing. Rodolfo promises to Aya Petra that he isn't
interested in finding out where Adriana is, but more interested in finding
Adriana. Rodolfo marches out of El Castillo Astolfi, angry, disgusted, and
overall furious. After he leaves, Fray Quintin and Patricio come out of hiding.
Fray is able to catch his breath, and Aya Petra explains that she is certain
that Rodolfo will locate Adriana and likely create havoc in her life. Even Fray
becomes worried about Adriana, since he is sure that Rodolfo will do damage.
Renzo and Pedro look over at Adriana, who was busy placing rocks and other
materials in a basket. She looked very exhausted. She paused for a moment to
look at Renzo. This was her husband? All she knew about him was that he was the
guy she saw in the forest the other evening playing the violin. She didn't even
know his name. Fray Quintin prepares for his departure to the Isla de los
COndenados, so he can rescue Adriana and bring her back to Aya Petra. He
struggles to get on the carriage, then the cariage driver struggles to get the
horse to go in the direction he wanted to go. Back at the Isla, Lucrecia (*)
finds Adriana and decides to mess around with her again. Adriana has certainly
not forgotten that face. Renan notices tension erupting between the two, and
Lucrecia tells Renan that Adriana is so gorgeous and a princess. Lucrecia told
him in such a way that she wondered how Adriana ended up on the island? From a
distance Renzo and Pedro notices Lucrecia starting something with Adriana.
Renan warns Lucrecia that there is work to be done and no time for this, and he
shoves Lucrecia away. Adriana uses her bare hands and digs them deep into the
rocky dirt. She shows Renan her hands. The palms of her hands were littered with
blood. Jonás takes her hands and tells her that she must be tired after working
so hard, but he really was looking for something more deeper and Adriana knew
it. Renzo wanted to kill Jonás right there, but Pedro held him back. Adriana
would not surrender herself to Jonás' passion for her. Jonás then squeezes
Adriana's hands so she feels more pain and licks the blood off her fingers.
Manina holds Renzo's violin, knowing that it was the only thing she will
remember of her son Renzo. She hoped that there would be a way to help Renzo
escape and possibly prove his innocence. Manina tells Zokka that this whole
mess was made possible by Rodolfo Farnesio, who didn't feel sorry for anyone.
Meanwhile, Rodolfo Farnesio was on a quest to look for Adriana de Astolfi as he
rode in a carriage. He and his henchmen trotted along a path, destined to find
Adriana. That was what was on his mind at this point. Renzo tells Renan that
Adriana's hands were in dyer need of repair. Did Renan care? Absolutely not. He
pointed his gun at Renzo an told him to get back to work. Adriana makes Renan
understand that her hands were too injured at this point to continue working,
and she needed to have them bandaged. Renzo and Adriana then head to an area of
the Isla so he can help Adriana. Isa is elated about the name "Isa de
Astolfi." She can't imagine the feeling being married to Humberto in the
near future. Isolda tries catching up with Isa, who is acting like the lunatic
she has become. She advises Isa to calm down, and rightfully so since Isa was
trying to do her rendition of the Can-Can, which she fumbled miserably. Back at
the Isla, Renzo pours water on top of Adriana's injured hands. He asks why she
came to this island. Was it because she was searching for her father? Her
brother? Her husband? No. Adriana was searching for something much more. Renzo
was attracted to every physical feature of this beautiful condessa, but what
attracted him the most was her eyes. He then asks what her name is. He never
figured out what her name was. Adriana, without any hesitation to reveal her
real name to Renzo, chooses to call herself Luna. Luna, the free woman. Fray
Quintin had trouble with the horse and carriage he traveled on. Fray could not
get the horse, Griselda, to travel in the direction they were heading. Often
times, they had to stop so that Fray Quintin could get off and try to get the
horse to keep going. Rodolfo bangs on the door with his fist, demanding that
the young boy in the room open the door. Jonás finds Renzo and Adriana at an
empty area of the island and ordered them to come back to the island because
they had to work. Adriana, or Luna, requests to Jonás that she and Renzo are
about to have their marriage ceremony. Not a formal marriage ceremony like what
she would've had had she married Rodolfo, but a ceremony where she and Renzo
would swear their eternal love for each other.
Aya Petra is suffering. She looks out
the window, wondering where Adriana is, wondering if Adriana is okay. Humberto
returns to the scene where he supposedly killed El Conde Daniel Discarpa, and
as he looks around the scene comes back to haunt him. He remembered those words
Daniel told him about Isa, the sword fight with Daniel, the fist fight with
Daniel, and then what transpired after that. The feeling of regret crept in and
the reality hit him that maybe this freedom he earned on Adriana's sacrifice
was not as enjoyable as he thought. Maybe he would've been better off serving
his sentence at the Isla de los Condenados. [Next few scenes were skipped
because of problems on tape. See notes on top of page] Jonás finds Adriana and
requests to come with him. He reveals his feelings for Adriana ever since he
saw her on the ship. Jonás chases Adriana, circling around her with his horse.
Adriana wants Jonás to leave her alone, but he has just begun. He gets off his
horse and walks closer to Adriana, professing his love and affection for her.
And he does — he grabs Adriana and tries with all his might to kiss her.
Adriana screams in his face to let her go, beating him, fighting him off. At
the tavern, Isa Valenti informs Aya Petra that Humberto is not here. Aya Petra
slowly walks away, since she will find him herself. Adriana washes her hands,
and as she does, she flashes back to the moment when Renzo held her hands, asked
her who she was looking for — her father, her brother, her husband. She can
remember that scene vividly. Pedro wanted to talk to Renzo about Luna. Renzo
admits to him that Luna has captured his heart, and he is committed to make
this love last forever, for him and for Luna. He and Luna have sworn their
eternal love at the Isla de los Condenados. Adriana suddenly hears that violin
playing again. Suddenly she feels herself in that trance, but this time she
knows who is playing that music now. Humberto comes home, and Aya Petra is
pretty upset that he came home very late. She had been wanting to talk to him.
Humberto was very tired and wanted to go to bed. Not before Aya Petra handed
him the letter that Adriana had given her before she fled. Humberto reads it
and can't believe what he read. When Adriana pinpoints the location where she
thinks she heard the music, she was in for a big surprise. Jonás appeared, and
he had Adriana right where he wanted her, alone, with nobody else watching.
This was the way he wanted it with her. The moment he grabs Adriana and tries
making out with her, Renzo suddenly appears and demands to Jonás to let her go.
Jonás let her go all right, then whacks Renzo with his whip. Later he points a
gun at Renzo and vows to Renzo that he will be back. After Jonás disappears
into the dark forest, Renzo asks Adriana what she was doing here. She heard
music and she thought this empty area was where she heard it. Manina makes a
prediction with her tarot cards and upon turning over the next card in the
sequence she discovers a moon on the card. Moon....Luna....Renzo. Manina knew
there was a very noticeable connection between those three. Adriana helps Renzo
recover from the lash he took from Jonás. Renzo got whacked in the arm, and the
pain was very apparent. Adriana grabs a washcloth and treats the wound, but
Renzo tells her that it is not necessary for her to help him this way. Adriana
dampens Renzo's arm with the cloth, then soothes it with her hand. Each caress
on Renzo's arm drew her more closer to Renzo. She could feel her love getting
stronger for him, the passion getting more fiery and intense like the small
campfire burning between them. Her lips came close to Renzo's, and she knew she
was prepared to drench herself in a gypsy love that would prove beyond
eternal.... Suddenly Renzo announces that he is tired and it's time to sleep.
Adriana stared at Renzo, wondering what happened to her gypsy love. Renzo
stared back at Adriana, knowing that Adriana's gypsy love for him is there, and
not that far away.
USA, 6/4/00. Amor Gitano Summary for Sunday
6-4-00: On the Island of the Condemned, Renzo and Adriana are in his hut
preparing to go to sleep as they both stare at the small cot..... Renzo: I've
already told you that you have nothing to fear of me. You can sleep on the cot.
I will sleep on the ground. (They each prepare to go to bed. Renzo grabs a
blanket and lays it on the ground. Adriana climbs into the cot. He stares at
her sleeping form) Adriana: Renzo, I appreciate indefinitely all that you have
done for me. (Back at the Monestary) Friar Quintin: Believe me Sir Farnesio, it
will be useless to go and visit the convent. Adriana has been secluded and she
is not allowed to have any visitors for at least the next seven days. Rodolfo:
I don't intend to visit my fiancee, Friar, I intend to get her out of that
place. Friar Quintin: That is even worse. Adriana went to that place to obtain
peace for her spirit. If you take her away from her purpose, you are going to
have her distance her heart from you. (At the Astolfi Castle) Humberto: Is
Rodolfo Farnesio aware of this? Aya Petra: He was here looking for your sister.
I gave him the letter that Adriana gave me to give to him. He wanted to speak
with you, but since you were not here. He went to look for Friar Quintin to ask
him at what convent he went to take Adriana. I doubt the Father will tell him
Humberto: The humilitation that my sister caused, he is going to want to take
it against me. We have to convince her to return Aya Petra. Adriana can't
abandoned me to the fury of Farnesio. Aya Petra: And you, you have been able to
abandoned her to a future that she didn't desire right. (At the monestary)
Alter Boy: You can't deny that what you did is bad. Look at how you made me lie
in such a way. Patricio: (laughing). Sure, but it didn't cost you any problems.
Alter Boy: Well, after the threat you gave me, I had to use all of my courage
to look convincing before Sir Farnesio. But I know that I committed a big sin.
What is my soul condemned to hell's fire. (Back on the Island of the Condemned)
(Adriana is sleeping on the cot, but appears to be having a bad dream. In her
dreamsleep she begins to speak out loud) Adriana: He can't be dead...I came to
help him....I came avoid him from serving this sentence (Renzo, overhears
Adriana speaking out loud and gets up off the floor to see what is wrong)
Adriana: I have to find him...I have to find him... (Renzo approaches the cot
to sit and extends his hand towards Adriana's face to touch her. Adriana is
still restless in her dreamsleep) Renzo: You are so beautiful. Luna, Luna wake
up Adriana: What are you doing next to me? How dare you? Renzo: You had a bad
dream. I only approached you to wake you up. Adriana: Is it a gypsy custom to
wake up another person with such a gesture. Renzo: If I had desire or impulse
to take advantage of you..my duty would have been to separate myself from your
side. I haven't failed to disrepect you so you can speak bad of my gypsy race.
(Renzo goes to to sleep on the ground and leaves Adriana wondering what just
happened) (In Isa's room, she is lying on her bed thinking) Isa: You will see
Humberto Astolfi...I am going to learn everything to convert myself into a lady
and then you will marry me. And I will enjoy the Astolfi fortune.
(At the Astolfi Castle in the living
room) Humberto: Do you know the problem that my sister has gotten me into. Aya
Petra: What did you say Humberto? It has been you that has initiated this bad
situation. You commited a crime that has indefinitely finished with your sisters
tranquillity. You have obligated her to the point of exposing her life on the
island..... Humberto: It is her who has put my life in danger. For leaving in
such a hasty manner and without the consent of her future husband. Are you
aware that I am sick. (Humberto is mad when he sees Patricio enter the
livingroom) Humberto: You took her right. Right now you are going to take me to
her. Aya Petra: It was Friar Quintin who arranged to take Adriana to the
convent. Patricio nor I know the place where your sister has chosen to find her
soul because of so many problems, because of your fault. (Humberto leaves) Aya
Petra: Did you get the chance to reach the monestary before Sir. Farnesio?
Patricio: Yes Petra.(Aya Petra is relieved) Aya Petra: Thank God (In Rodolfo
Farnesio's bedroom) Rodolfo: What the devil are you doing here Astrid? Astrid:
(Laughing)...I wanted to give you a pleasant surprise (she is lying in bed
naked)...from the looks of it you aren't in the mood Rodolfo...is it your
fiancee who has again demonstrated her enthusiam for the happy marriage that
she waits for... Rodolfo: Don't start with your stupid ironies Astrid. Astrid:
(laughing) (Rodolfo goes over to Astrid and takes a bowl in which he has just
washed his hands in and pours the water all over her, then he begins to caress
her) Astrid: I'm sorry lover, I didn't want to harrass you. I
understand...there will be plenty dissatisfactions from the respectable
Marquesa of Astolfi and you won't suspect how many Rodolfo: (Grabs Astrid by
the throat and begins to choke her) Nobody ever tell you how to obey an order
Countess of Marnier..I said that's enough..I don't want you ever to mention
Adriana in my presence...If my impending marriage bothers you so much I will
look for my fun somewhere else (Rodolfo then kisses Astrid) (On the Island of
the Condemned, it is now morning. Renzo and Adriana are preparing to go to
work) (Renzo sees Adriana cleaning her leg) Renzo: If you want, you get take a
bath in the river Luna...I know a solitary place near the river before the
evening sets. Don't worry, I won't disturb your intimacy...I will stay far away
to ensure no one comes near. (Renan is walking towards the hut) Adriana: Please
Renzo, don't misunderstand... Renan: (He hits the hut with his whip and scares
Adriana) Get out...its time to begin the laboring (He goes inside the hut and
looks at his surroundings...he picks up a blanket) Renan: What a strange
marriage you two have. What..don't you sleep together? What..your woman doesn't
support being next to you...(he goes to grab Adriana's hair and Renzo pulls her
away) Renzo: It's nobody's business Renan: Well Jonas will be very much
interested than you think Adriana: I don't understand how important it can be
for the foreman that a woman wishes the relaxation of her husband Renan: You
are smart with words woman..I hope that you are as good with the work...hurry
up (Renan laughs and leaves) Adriana: What if that man finds us out Renzo..if
he finds out that we are not married Renzo: Then it would liberate you from being
linked to a gypsy Adriana: Renzo, please understand me...last night I was
feeling bad. Renzo: You spoke the truth Luna..You showed before me that your
soul is not as beautiful as your body....you demonstrated your true feelings
towards the gypsy's. Adriana: Don't say that.. Renzo: If you don't trust my
race...then why didn't you tell the truth..that you were not the woman of a
gypsy Adriana: This would give you favoritism...it would prevent any
confrontations with the foreman..ok Renzo I will tell the truth (Adriana walks
out of the hut and Renzo follows her) Renzo: Luna
(Zokka, riding a horse, arrives at
Rodolfo Farnesio's castle) (Isa is waiting in Astrid De Marnier's living room
greeted by Violeta) Isa: Can you tell the Countess that I have arrived?
Violeta: No, no I can't...my lady Astrid is not here Isa: That's strange...I
always thought the woman of nobility were accustomed to sleeping in late..where
has she gone at this hour Violeta: Indiscretion is a fine quality for a lady
Isa: (Laughing)...is it you who will be showing me how an aristocrat should act
(laughing) (In Rodolfo Farnesio's bedroom) Rodolfo: From here on out I don't
want any more of your surprises Astrid..remember that real soon I am going to
get married..I don't want any inadequate rumours to embarrass my fiancee
Astrid: (laughing)...I believe you are going to convert into a boring man
Farnesio...I hope it won't hurt your image of an impecable seductor (Rodolfo
and Astrid are kissing when they hear a knock on the door, its Dino the servant)
Dino: The carriage for the Countess is ready Astrid: I didn't say that I was
leaving Rodolfo: No, it was I who gave the order...you have to forgive me but I
have a very busy day (Astrid remains cool and leaves the bedroom while Rodolfo
laughs to himself) Dino: My master sure knows how to take pleasure and treat
the women and to have fun with their company...last night you enjoyed the
favors of the Countess after spending all day with the Marquesa of Astolfi
Rodolfo: Shut up..you gossiper...Adriana has secluded herself in a convent
Dino: I can imagine that it must have you very upset Rodolfo: It won't be for
very long..in a couple of days I will go personally to get her out of that
place Dino: Yes, yes that is best...you wouldn't want your fiancee to begin to
like the life of the convent and commits to a religious habit Rodolfo:
Definitely...that of course I will not allow that to happen...I have submitted
a note to the king to request his permission for my next alliance with the
Marquesa of Astolfi and I'm not going to be taken for a fool..I don't allow no
one to take Count Farnesio for a fool Dino: No, no...and be left without a
punishment...the gypsy Renzo is already suffering for his boldness and very
soon he will pay with his life (On the Island of the Condemned, Renzo catches
up with Adriana, grabs her by the arm and forces her to turnaround to talk to
him) Renzo: Do you know that awaits you if Jonas finds out that you don't have
any man to defend you Adriana: What awaits for me at your side Renzo..bad
treatments for a misunderstanding..be continuously mistreated... (she pulls
free from his grasp just as Jonas rides up next to them) Jonas: What is wrong
with you too. So soon are you beginning to mistreat your woman gypsy...your not
satisfied for being a liar and thief..you are also aggressive with your
woman..you miserable (Jonas goes to whip Renzo) Renzo: Enough insults of my
people...why don't you show your strength like a real man...I challenge you to
a fight body to body (Jonas laughs) Adriana: Renzo, please Jailer: Come on
Jonas, take the challenge Prisoner: Are you afraid of the gypsy Jonas: Shut up
you stupids..ok..this fight is to the death...and be aware gypsy you have
sentenced yourself. (Renzo and Jonas start to fight...a crowd of prisoners and
jailers surround them shouting words of encouragement...Renan parts the crowd
and holds his gun up ready to shoot...Renzo picks up an ax and is ready to kill
Jonas with it) Renzo: You said this was a fight to death...but your not
confronting a killer (he drops the ax) Adriana: Renzo...are you ok Renan:
(Yelling) Back to work...move...work I said Adriana: Why did you do that
Renzo...I'm sure from here on out Jonas is going to convert himself into your
worst enemy Renzo: Don't worry yourself Luna..that's not your problem Hutid
(Angry woman from ship): You should be happy gorgeous....two men have
confronted death for you...strange how your man has been victorious but I don't
think it will be him who will save your life
(At the Astolfi castle, Humberto is
sitting down at the dinner table eating with Aya Petra by his side) Aya Petra:
Why don't you leave the life you have been leading...it is time that you settle
down and take responsibility to administer the land inherited from your father
Humberto: Rodolfo Farnesio will handle all of that once he is married to
Adriana Aya Petra: Don't you think it should be something that you should do
instead...it is your right as the inheritor of the Marquis of Astolfi ...you
prefer to pass the time of your life with prostitutes like the one who came to
visit you the other day (On the island of the Condemned) Pedro: You shouldn't
have been so risky Renzo..you know that you are at an incomplete disadvantage
Renzo: In all likelyhood I have been condemned and anyway I couldn't resist
anymore...Jonas insulted my race and I won't tolerate it from anyone...not even
from Luna...Yes Pedro, Luna hates the gypsys and thats enough for me to hate
her too Pedro: At the cost of how much it hurts Renzo: Even from what I feel
for her (At a river, gypsy woman are washing clothes along with Minina who is
talking to Dinilo the head gypsy) Minina: The woman who appears in the cards
seems to have true sentiments Dinilo...but she is being guided by lies next to
my son...I have to warn Renzo Dinilo: It is written that this woman should
arrive in Renzo's life..there is nothing you can do to avoid for the destiny to
be fulfilled...you more than anyone else knows it Minina: My son is in
danger...a woman can hurt him..could it be the some one that the cards are
talking about (At the Rodolfo Farnesio's castle, he is pouring himself a drink
in his study and hears Dino's voice) Dino: Master, master...you have a visitor
that might interest you (Zokka enters the room) Rodolfo: What is this gypsy
doing here? Zokka: If it is permitted, I would like to talk to you sir Rodolfo:
Well ok...talk Zokka: I have come to beg for mercy for a gypsy...a gypsy who is
paying for a hard sentence when he is innocent Rodolfo: (laughing)..what are
you talking about.. I am Count Farnesio...Farnesio...do you really think I
would intercede for a dispicable gypsy (laughing) Zokka: Please have mercy Sir
Rodolfo: A gypsy, please...Dino for such a moment you have brought this gypsy
woman before my presence...to ask for the life of miserable who is not worth
anything...get her out of my sight (Dino grabs Zokka and starts to take her
away) Zokka: Sir...If I were to tell you... Rodolfo: Out Zokka: ...that Renzo
is not just a gypsy Rodolfo: Explain yourself Zokka: It is true Sir...through Renzo's
veins runs gypsy blood, but also nobel blood Rodolfo: How can you prove what
you are saying is true gypsy? How do I know if its not a lie just to get my
help. Zokka: My name is Zokka and I have the ability to read the lines of any
hand...I have very clearly seen the mix of gypsy and nobel blood in Renzo's
life Rodolfo: You don't say...prove to me your powers of prediction...tell me
what you see in my hand gypsy (Rodolfo offers his hand to Zokka) Zokka: There
is no peace in your soul Sir...you fear the arrival of a man who also has your
same blood Rodolfo: (walks around mad and upset) That's absurd...absurd...is
there anything else you have to say about that gypsy which can justify the
story which you have come to tell me Dino: Talk, talk girl...say what you know
Zokka: I can only speak of what my eyes have seen Rodolfo: That is not enough
to believe that you are telling me the truth Dino: Out...out Zokka:
Sir...Sir...please listen have mercy on me...
(At the Astolfi Castle, same scene in
the diningroom) Aya Petra: When are you going to act with maturity..you can't
go around life losing your mind over the prostitues who cross your path
Humberto: That woman really interests me Petra Aya Petra: That woman has been
taught in the ways of love to seduce young men like yourself...the only motive
to obtain your fortune...any well she has obtained it with you Humberto: I'm
tired of you scolding me..you are only a servant Aya Petra: Yes..that is
true...a servant who worrys about you Humberto: But why? For compassion only
because you know I am sick Aya Petra: I held you in my arms when you were
born...almost immediately after your mother Constanza fell ill...it was I who
cared for Adriana and you...I've seen you grow up into the young adults that
you are now...do you think that all that has happened I wouldn't have sincere
affection for the both of you (In Jonas jail cell room with Renan) Jonas:
Mirserable gypsy...he is going to pay real bad for his insolence...personally I
am going to make him pay until I see him at my feet begging for mercy Renan: It
will serve as a warning for the other prisoners...that way they will know not
to be insolents (In an area near the rock pits, Adriana is lifting a basket
onto the back of a wagon, while Renzo does the same) Santiago: Now all the
prisoners look at you with respect Renzo...you were very courageous Renzo: I
only reacted like a man Santiago..I know that its going to bring me lots of
trouble (Renzo watches as Adriana walks away) Santiago: You are right about
that...Jonas will not be satisfied until you pay for humiliating him before all
the prisoners....you have problems with Luna your woman right...I'm just glad
my wife is not here to live a miserable life...if Maria would have wanted to
come to my side I would avoid arguing with her...it must be real love to make
such a sacrifice for which Luna has made for you (Adriana and Renzo stare at
each other) (At Rodolfo Farnesio's castle) Dino: If the gypsy Renzo happens to
be the one we believe he is, the past will stop being a threat for you
master...you have taken care of ensuring the death of that miserable Rodolfo: I
want to be sure...you will go to the gypsy camp to find out the past of that
miserable gypsy Dino: No master, please....with all do respect but I don't
think its a good idea..remember it was me who accused Renzo and surely the
whole tribe would kill me...I'm not the one to do any searching among those
people Rodolfo: (laughing)...you are a coward Dino..I have to be sure of this
as soon as possible..I will find a way to verify if it has been a miserable
coincidence...that Renzo the gypsy is my cousin, son of my Uncle Clemente...if
that is true my insomnias will finish with his death on the Island of the
Condemned
(On the Island of the Condemned near the
rock pit area, a woman is walking and very upset holding a cup of water in her
hands) Adriana: What is wrong with your Brasilisa, why are you crying
Brasilisa: Its nothing, would you like some water? (Hutid, the angry woman from
the ship, flings the cup of water out of Brasilisa's hands just when she was
offering it to Adriana) Adriana: Why did you do that? Why do you continue to
persist in harassing me Hutid (Angry woman): You have caused the disgrace of
your man because you have the devil inside of you (yelling to the other woman
around her)...if we share the water with her she will transmit to us her
disgrace Brasilisa: You have a mean heart Hutid...this woman is at the same
mercy just like all the other women on this island Adriana: I don't wish to
provoke the suffering of anyone...if you don't wish to be near me then you have
the liberty to do so...and the rest of you...to give you some tranquilty if I
have to drink water from my own hands I will do it Renan: What's going on here.
Why aren't you working. Hutid: This woman (Adriana) has the devil in her...even
her man hates her (In the living room of Astrid de Mariner's Castle, Isa is
starting her training to become a lady) Violeta: Its going to take you an
eternity to teach her Countess Isa: You see it won't, you intruding servent
Astrid: Never show your emotions...nor attack your enemies so predictable...on
the contrary...you have to smile at them and fake by showing them that you like
their company and when the time it right, without warning..you strike a blow Isa:
Have you done this? Astrid: Sometimes...precisely at this moment I am trying to
find the method to get out of my way a young woman who is distracting a very
good friend of mine (On the Island of the Condemned, Renzo is thinking about
what Luna (Adriana) has told him) (Adriana's voice...I don't have a husband...I
am willing to make the biggest sacrifice for the man I am looking for) Renzo: I
would give my life for you Luna (an old man carrying a basket full of rocks
falls down and Renzo goes to help him) Renzo: Are you ok? Renan: Go back to
your work gypsy Renzo: This man is hurt, the weight has been to heavy for him
Renan: Let him get up by himself to finish his labor...those who can not finish
their work can rest at the bottom of the ocean Pedro: Don't be so inconsiderate
Renan..this man could well be your father Old man: Leave me young man...don't
get into trouble for me Renzo: Are you going to punish me for helping an old
man, then so be it Renan: Hey..hey..I'll be nice just because its an old
man...and since you like to help the others...you will finish the work the old
man started while everyone else eats Pedro: That punishment is to weaken you
Renzo Renzo: I will eat some fruits at night Pedro..with that it will be enough
Old man: Thank you young man..God bless you Renzo: You will do it through the
sound of your music...I have heard you play the violin..and if its not to much
to ask would you allow me to use it Old man: In the night I will show you where
I hide it so that it won't be taken away from me...its all I have
(During the meal, Santiago and Adriana
are eating) Santiago: I came in the last ship of prisoners.. I came from Villa
Florencia Adriana: Your accusation must have been bad if they sent you to this
island of death Santiago: I didn't commit any crime...I was brought here from
an injustice Adriana: How can they condemn you so severely for a crime you
didn't commit Santiago: All it takes is the accusation of a very powerful man
for an innocent to make it to this island Adriana: This man, who is it?
Santiago: Count Rodolfo Farnesio...he wanted to rape my wife on the same day of
our marriage..she had to leave and I was arrested for it Adriana: So then..you
are Patricio's brother Santiago: You know him? Adriana: I worked for a time at
the castle of the Astolfi...I was a servent for the young Adriana Santiago:
...and he will continue to serve her if its possible...he loves her more than
his own life (Patricio is riding through the forrest thinking about the day he
had to let Adriana go alone to the Island of the Comdemned) Patricio: I
shouldn't have let her go (Zokka and another gypsy are talking) Zokka: It was
not worth it Rado....that man didn't have any mercy for Renzo Rado: There is
nothing more you can do Zokka..Renzo was accused of a crime and the ring they
found in his pocket will condemn him forever Zokka: But he did't do it Rado...I
know...someone put that ring with his belongings when no one was around (On the
Island of the condemned, Renzo is picking the rocks with an ax while everyone is
eating their meal) Renzo: Sometimes I feel I am wrong about Luna.. especially
knowing it hurts how she feels about my people Pedro: Don't kid yourself
Renzo..even though it hurts its not the fact that she hates the gypsys, but
knowing that she came to this island looking for a man that is not you Renzo:
Luna is very courageous...she has risked her life to be with the man...she must
love him very much to share the same destiny (Adriana walks up to Renzo)
Adriana: I will wait much later for you so you can take me to the river (she
hands Renzo a piece of bread wrapped in a cloth) (In Jonas' jail cell room, he
is counting the coins given to him by Dino, Farnesio's servant) Jonas: You are
quite smart in making enemies gypsy these coins are not the only reason I have
to get rid of you...but I will do it very slowly..I want to enjoy seeing you
suffer in agony (Renan enters the room)....what do you want Renan..you should
be on your watch duty Renan: The fight with Renzo has left you very quiet
Jonas: I won't be calm until I get my revenge against that miserable....but
before I kill the gypsy I'm going to take his woman away from him (Renan takes
a coin and hides it in his boot)
(Renzo and Adriana are at the River)
Renzo: Hurry up and take a bath...I will ensure that no one comes near (Adriana
takes her bath while Renzo stands nearby keeping guard when a woman approaches
and is crying) Adriana: Brasilisa..you scared me...what's wrong...I want you to
know that you can trust me Brasilisa: My man is dead...they killed him on the
ship that was headed this way Adriana: Oh God...I'm sorry...I'm so sorry
Brasilisa Brasilisa: (crying) He was a good man...he never looked to fight
anyone...they accused him of a crime he didn't commit...he was innocent
Adriana: (thinking to herself)...Pedro was right..the man who died on the ship
on his way to the island is the same man I was looking for...why dear God, why
couldn't I have helped him (In Jonas' jail cell Room) Renan: I don't think
Renzo the gypsy will mind if his woman and you have a thing Jonas: You are
wrong Renan, he has defended her with fury Renan: Then I don't understand the
marriage of those two...this morning I found out that they don't sleep
together...according to her its to help the gypsy sleep better...but I find it very
rare...one of the woman says that the gpysy hates his wife Jonas: And if those
two are frauds Renan...and in reality they are not man and wife (At Rodolfo
Farnesio's Castle) Rodolfo: Yes Dino..I have thought about it...that gpysy
woman knows more about the past of that miserable...maybe I need to convince
her to find out what I want to know Dino: (laughing)...I don't think she will
return back here master...I told her that if she did I would let the dogs lose
on her Rodolfo: You are stupid Dino Dino: I can have someone go get her at the
gypsy camp Rodolfo: And who can go near the camp without having them think its
me who is asking (Humberto walks into the room) Humberto: Good afternoon..I was
informed that yesterday you were asking for me (On the Island of the Condemned,
Hutid is leading Jonas to the location of the river) Hutid: I saw them going
that way...here they come Jonas: Where the hell have you two been? Why are you
not completing your work Renzo: Renan has me finishing the labor of the old man
and for the wood to start the fire Jonas: And you Luna...I heard that your
husband has been mistreating you...you are at liberty to leave him if you want
Renzo: Don't get involved Jonas: Shut up gypsy Adriana: Renzo is my husband and
I wish to be by his side Renan: Don't lie woman...I have been watching you ..I
have the impression that you two don't act like a couple Hutid: Its true...you
never show each other affection...or are you really a devil who can't love
anyone Jonas: Tell the truth...no one is going to hurt you...you are too
beautiful to be the wife of a gypsy Adriana: I have nothing new to say Sir..I
have sacrificed my life to be with the man I love who is my husband Hutid: If
you love him so much...why don't you show us right now...kiss your man Renzo:
Luna doesn't need to show her love in front of anyone Jonas: Its the proof I
need to support the truth or lies of my suspicions Renzo: Its not necesarry
Adriana: (looking at Renzo) If my word is not enough for Jonas, he is ordering
me to kiss you to show my love for you then I will do it. Renzo grabs Luna and
looks into her eyes then kisses her passionately.. End of episode...until next
Sunday Margie
USA. 6/11/00. Subject: Amor Gitano Summary
(6-11-00) Author: Margie Date: 06-12-2000 22:26 Hi Everybody, This is the
summary of Amor Gitano's episode of Sunday, June 11, 2000. Here are the highlights:
In order to settle Jona's curiosity whether Adriana and Renzo are really
husband and wife, Adriana is forced to demonstrate her affection to Renzo by
kissing him. Renzo kisses Adriana passionately and after the kiss Adriana is
left confused. But the kiss does the trick and Jonas is temporarily satisfied.
At Rodolfo Farnesio's castle, Humberto is visiting with Rodolfo. Rodolfo
informs Humberto that Adriana has secluded herself in the convent too long.
Humberto tells Rodolfo that she went there to grieve the loss of her mother and
Rodolfo is not to happy to hear that. Rodolfo is not to convinced and tells
Humberto that Adriana better honor her agreement to marry him or else he would
tell the authorities that Humberto killed a man. Humberto assures Rodolfo that
Adriana will marry him. Humberto informs Rodolfo that he will go and get
Adriana, but Rodolfo tells him that he wants to do that personally. Rodolfo
asks Humberto to do him a favor and go to the gypsy camp to look for a gypsy
named Zokka and ask her to come see him. Rodolfo tells Humberto not to ask any
questions and to be discreet about his request. Isa Valenti is at Astrid de
Marnier's castle starting her lessons in becoming a lady of nobility. She is
reading a book and gets frustrated from the task. Violeta (Astrid's servant)
tells her that reading is part of her training. Isa informs Violeta that a man
doesn't need a woman who can read, but a woman who can give pleasure. Violeta
tells Isa that with her vulgar thinking she will never learn the ways of an
aristocrat. Renzo and Adriana are putting away the logs for the fire when
Adriana tries to explain to Renzo about the kiss. Renzo tells Adriana not to
worry because he understands why they had to kiss. Renzo believes that Adriana
kissed him because she is looking for his protection to ensure her safety on
the island. Adriana tells Renzo that he doesn't trust her and asks why. Why
does he think that she still depises him for being a gypsy. Renzo apparently
still holds a resentment towards Adriana for her remarks about him being a
gypsy. She tries to tell him that she is sorry for the comment. Renzo tells
Adriana that she shouldn't have come to the island because her presence here is
risky and would cause death. Renzo tells Adriana this because he knows that
there are other man who desire her and want her especially since he feels the
same way too. Renzo tells Adriana does she think he will be able to protect her
from all those men who desire her. Adriana informs Renzo that she is not
planning on staying on the island any longer because the man she was looking
for is dead and there is no other reason for her to stay. Renzo is surprised
that Adriana has decided to leave. Since Renzo agrees that Adriana should
leave, she asks him to put away their differences and he agrees.
Humberto rides into the gypsy camp
asking for a woman named Zokka to inform her that she is being summoned to the
Farnesio castle. During the night, Brasilisa (Adriana's friend) get sicks and
Adriana requests Renan's assistance to help her. Renan takes one look at the
sick woman and immediately informs the others around them that it looks like
the black death. Renan informs Adriana that the woman must be isolated
immediately and she agrees to take care of her sick friend. Renzo is speaking
to Pedro about his feelings regarding Adriana's departure from the island, but
he agrees that is it better for her to go because otherwise her life would be
in danger. Pedro tells Renzo that although it is going to hurt that she is
leaving, it is better for the both of them. Santiago comes to inform Renzo that
Adriana has been isolated in a hut by the ocean away from the others because of
the sickness of Adriana's friend. Pedro overhearing this information tells
Renzo that he knows what this black death is and if others are infected would
kill them all. Renan goes to Jonas to tell him that a woman has become ill with
the black death and Adriana has volunteered to take care of her. Upon hearing
this news, Jonas is mad and upset that Adriana has gone to care for this woman.
Jonas goes to see Adriana and leaves Renan alone in his room. Remembering that
Jonas has a bag of coins, Renan searches the room and finds the bag and decides
to keep it. Renzo, upon hearing the news from Santiago, immediately goes
directly to the isolated hut to talk with Adriana. Renzo tells Adriana that she
must leave the hut immediately. Adriana tells Renzo that she is determined to
stay and help her sick friend because she feels sorry for her. Renzo is worried
and doesn't want to leave Adriana in the hut because he feels that she can
become infected with the same sickness and then die. Renzo tells Adriana that
he will be able to support her departure, but not her death. Zokka is talking
with her grandfather Dinilo and Renzo's mother Manina informing them that she
went to go see Rodolfo Farnesio to beg mercy for Renzo. Zokka tells them that
she knows Renzo has nobel blood and told Rodolfo Farnesio this information.
Manina is shocked and upset with Zokka and tells her that Rodolfo Farnesio
doesn't care about Renzo's life. Rodolfo Farnesio goes to the Astolfi castle to
see Humberto and finds out that he will have to wait. Back at the isolated hut,
Adriana confesses to Renzo that the man she was looking for has died and she
wishes to help her friend in redemption for not being able to help the dead
man. (Adriana thinks that Brasilisa's husband was the man she was looking for
on the island). Jonas is yelling outside the hut pronouncing Adriana's name out
loud. Adriana tells Renzo to go and inform Jonas that she wishes to stay in the
hut to care for her sick friend. Renzo has a very tender moment with Adriana
when he grabs Adriana's hand and places it over his heart because he doesn't
know whether she will survive the sickness surrounding Adriana's friend. Renzo
goes outside of the hut to confront Jonas. Jonas argues with Renzo and asks why
he allowed Adriana to stay in the hut with the sick woman. Renzo tells Jonas
that it was Adriana's desire to stay in the hut and he will respect her wishes.
In her bedroom, Countess Astrid de Marnier is talking with her servant Violeta
telling her why she is helping Isa Valenti become a lady of nobility. She tells
Violeta that she is doing this deed because she knows that Isolda, the tavern
keeper, has information which could ruin her. Astrid finds that this agreement
could be used to her advantage. By helping Isa Valenti become a lady of
nobility, Isa will be the tool to break up the marriage arrangement between
Rodolfo and Adriana.
At the Astolfi castle, while Rodolfo
Farnesio is waiting for Humberto in the living room, he tells Patricio that
when Adriana becomes his wife, he doesn't want to see him around her anymore.
Aya Petra informs him that until that day happens, Patricio will continue to
serve Adriana unless she herself dismisses Patricio from her service. Rodolfo
is not pleased with Aya Petra's insolence. At that moment, Humberto arrives and
overhears the conversation. Humberto confronts Aya Petra telling her that
because of her rude remark to Rodolfo, she is to apologize to him. Aya Petra,
in a humble manner, tells Rodolfo to forgive her for the remark she made.
Rodolfo snickers. Near the river, by the light of the moon, Manina is saying a
prayer. She looks to the moon and expresses her desire that the moon help guide
her son Renzo. She wants Renzo to be careful because he is in danger. Back at
the hut, Adriana is praying for Brasilisa's life. She asks that her friend be
spared from death. Adriana wishes for Brasilisa to get better because
eventhough she couldn't help her husband, she wants to help her friend get
better from this sickness. While Adriana is inside the hut, Renzo is outside
the hut near a campfire keeping watch. Pedro joins Renzo and tells him that if
he doesn't get any rest he will have a hard time when they labor tomorrow.
Renzo tells Pedro that not to worry, somehow he has developed feelings for
Adriana and he doesn't want to leave her alone. Renzo asks Pedro if it is true
what they say about the black death and Pedro confirms to Renzo that whoever is
infected can die. Renzo is not convinced as to why Adriana would expose herself
to the sickness and sacrifice her life for a man who she came looking for on
the island. Renzo admits to Pedro that he has fallen in love with Adriana and
he is not willing to lose her to this black death and tries to get Adriana out
of the hut, but Pedro holds him back. Pedro tells Renzo to respect her decision.
At the Astolfi castle, Rodolfo is telling Humberto not to say a word about his
mission into the gypsy camp. In a humiliating moment, Humberto asks Rodolfo if
he would help him financially for expenses. Rodolfo pulls out a bag of coins
and drops it on the floor and tells Humberto that he shouldn't think that
Rodolfo will be sustaining him. In the kitchen of the Astolfi castle, Aya Petra
tells Patricio that he has placed his eyes on the wrong woman. He should not
have fallen in love with Adriana because he won't be able to stop the marriage
between Rodolfo and Adriana. Zokka leaves the gypsy came enroute to Rodolfo
Farnesio's castle in hopes of getting Renzo freed from the island of the
condemned. It is morning on the island and inside the hut, Adriana is sitting
on the floor near the cot where Brasilisa is sleeping. Adriana has a momentary
flashback in which she remembers the kiss she shared with Renzo and she asks
herself why does she keep dreaming about this, could it be a memory she doesn't
want to forget. Adriana gets up to check on her friend to see if she is feeling
any better. Adriana sees Brasilisa holding her stomach and figures that maybe
her sickness could be in her stomach. Brasilisa asks for water and Adriana
realizes that the pitcher is empty and tells her she will go and get water.
Adriana walks out of the hut and encounters Renzo. Adriana tells Renzo that
apparently the sickness Brasilisa had was from a bad stomach ache. Renzo offers
to go get water, but before he leaves he checks Adriana out and asks her how
she is feeling. Adriana tells him she is fine. Friar Quintin arrives at the
Astolfi castle with his alter boy Florentino and is greeted by Aya Petra in the
livingroom who offers the Friar and Florentino to come and have breakfast. Friar
Quintin tells Aya Petra that he and Florentino are fasting the morning's
breakfast. Friar Quintin has come to tell Aya Petra about his frustration with
Adriana. Humberto joins them. Friar Quintin tells Humberto that it is all his
fault. Humberto tells Friar Quintin to stay out of his life. After Humberto
leaves, Friar Quintin is upset that Adriana has gone to the island of the
condemned. He knows the purpose for her going there, but doesn't like the fact
that she went there all because of Humberto's fault. Zokka arrives at Rodolfo
Farnesio's castle to speak with him. Rodolfo wants Zokka to find out all the
information she can about Renzo's past. He wants to know if Renzo in actuality
has blood of nobility. He tells Zokka to find out the dates, time and how Renzo
ended up with the gypsy's. Humberto arrives early in the morning at the tavern
and is greeted by Isolda, the tavern keeper. Humberto is demanding to know
where Isa Valenti is. Isolda informs Humberto that Isa is being instructed in
the ways to become a lady of nobility by someone. Isa wants to become a lady so
a certain aristocrat will marry her. Humberto asks who is the person that is
teaching her and Isolda informs him that for a price she will tell him where he
can find her. He gives her the coin.
At Astrid De Marnier's castle, Isa is
being given a bath so that she can present herself as a lady with new clothes
under the watchful eye of Violeta. Back inside the hut, Adriana tells a
sleeping Brasilisa that she seems to be feeling much better and will be cured
from her sickness. Renan has stolen the coins that Jonas has hidden inside his
room. Renan asks himself where did Jonas get these coins and for what reason.
He sees Renzo at a distance and then he remembers when Jonas told him that he
is going to kill Renzo. He realizes that the coins are in payment for killing
Renzo. Dinilo is talking with Manina and tells her that Zokka has left the
gypsy camp. He is sadden that his granddaughter has left. After her meeting
with Rodolfo, Zokka realizes now that she has a mission to try and help Renzo.
As she is walking through the forrest, she is thinking about the day Renzo was
arrested and framed for murder. In a memory flashback she remembers that only
one person came close to Renzo that day and that person was Isa. (She believes
Isa put the ring in Renzo's pocket) Rodolfo is determined to find out if Renzo
is or is not his cousin, son of his Uncle Clemente. And if Renzo is his cousin,
he knows that he has already taken care of having him killed because to
Rodolfo, he is the only Count Farnesio. Humberto, riding his horse, sees Isa at
a distance and trots up to greet her. Isa, having been bathed and wearing the
clothes of an aristocraft smiles at Humberto who is pleased to see her in her
new attire. Renzo asks Adriana if her friend Brasilisa gets better will she be
leaving the island to go back to Villa Florencia. Renzo tells her that if she
does, it would be better for her because she would not be in any more danger.
Adriana is confused as to why Renzo is telling her that she is better off
leaving the island. Adriana tells Renzo that he won't be taking anymore risks
and she won't be either. Renzo tells Adriana that he would prefer she leaves
because he can't stand the idea of having her near him knowing that they are
not really husband and wife. Adriana doesn't understand why he is telling her
this. Renzo grabs Adriana and brings her close to him. Renzo tells Adriana it
is because of his feelings and what she does to him. Renzo explains to Adriana
that she is in his thoughts all the time. End of summary.....until next Sunday.

and Adriana are talking and he is letting her know how he feels. Astrid de
Marnier's Castle: Isa is outside waiting as Humberto arrives on horseback and
greets her. Isa asks Humberto how does she look and he tells her she looks
great. She asks him is that all he has to say after all the effort she had made
to look like a lady of nobility. Humberto tries to kiss Isa and she stops him.
She tells him that the Countess would not be happy to hear of how affections
are expressed out in public unless they were officially engaged. Isa tells him
that she is working on converting herself into a lady of nobility. She reminds
him that he promised to marry her. Humberto tells Isa that he hasn't forgotten.
Isa tells him that she hasn't forgotten that he killed a man. Island of the
Condemned: Renzo and Adriana are outside the hut where Adriana has been curing
her sick friend Brasilisa. Renzo is declaring to Adriana his feelings for her
and she asks him not to. He tells her that he is not going to hide his
feelings, knowing that he can sense she has feelings too. Adriana tells him
that she won't listen anymore. He tells her that he realizes the situation they
are in while on the island and how he couldn't be able to offer her anything.
He tells her that he has decided to escape and when she leaves the island he
will go and find her. Adriana tells Renzo that is would be too risky for him to
attempt an escape because she has heard stories of other prisoners who have
tried to escape without success. Renzo tells her that death would be worth it,
if he could not live his life with her. At that moment, Brasilisa calls
Adriana's name. Adriana tells Renzo she has to give Brasilisa her medicine.
Before Renzo is about to leave, Adriana lets him know that she doesn't want
Jonas to have any more motives to bother him. Renzo tells Adriana that he will
stop by later to bring her food. Adriana then goes into the hut to care for
Brasilisa. Jonas Room: Renan is talking with Jonas and asking him where he got
the coins from. Renan tells Jonas that it would be interesting if the higher
authorities were to find out that Jonas has accepted money and for a certain
reason. Renan tells Jonas that if he were asked, Jonas wouldn't have a good
reason and his position would be taken away from him. Renan tells Jonas that he
wouldn't tell the higher authorities because he is his friend and that Jones
could trust him. Renan is offering to help Jonas. Renan will demonstrate it by
keeping quiet. Jonas tells Renan that he doesn't know anything. Renan tells
Jona that he knows what Jonas is up to. Renan refreshes Jonas memory by saying
that Jonas wants to kill the gypsy and keep his woman, who happens to be a
beautiful. Jonas agrees and tells Renan that Adriana will be his.
At the rockpit area: Renzo is picking
rocks and talking to Pedro from a distance. He is letting him know that Adriana
has feelings for him too. Pedro asks him if he was sure. Renzo tells Pedro that
he could see it clearly in her eyes. Renzo tells Pedro he didn't need to hear
her words because he knew that Adriana loved him. Pedro tells him that he
should not have any hopes because this was not the place to fall in love. Renzo
gets closer to Pedro and in a low voice tells him that after his escape he will
catch up with Adriana in Villa Florencia. Renzo tells Pedro that he would like
Pedro to escape with him. Astrid de Marnier's Castle: Humberto and Isa are
talking and he is letting her know that he can't formalize their engagement
until his sister comes back from the convent. Isa asks him when will that
happen. He responds that he didn't know. He tells her that it may be a while.
She asks wasn't Adriana going to be married soon, maybe she has changed her
mind. Humberto assures Isa that his sister wouldn't go back on her word and she
would still marry Rodolfo. Isa tells him to make sure that Adriana comes back
soon so they could also be married. Island of the Condemned inside the hut:
Adriana is thinking to herself. She recalls when Renzo is telling her how he
can no longer keep quiet about his feelings for her and how she is in his
thoughts day and night. She tells herself that she too has feelings for him,
especially from the kiss they shared and reminds herself that she can't love
him back and should leave the island to go back to Villa Florencia as soon as
possible. Isolda's Tavern: Isolda is talking with Cleopatra (one of her
courtesans) about Isa's future and if Isa will end up marrying Humberto. Isolda
tells Cleopatra that she would like for Isa to get what she has been searching
for all her life. At that moment, a gypsy woman approaches them. Isolda asks
her what she wants. The gypsy woman is Zokka. Zokka tells her that she is
looking for work. Zokka tells Isolda that she can do all kinds of work like
clean floors and cook. Isolda tells her that if she is looking for good money,
she can work for her as a courtesan and Zokka wouldn't have to work as a
servant. Zokka tells Isolda that all she is looking for is a place to eat and
sleep if she is accepted as a servant. Isolda gives her the job. In the
forrest: Rodolfo is on horseback strolling through the forrest while Dino is
walking along beside him. Rodolfo tells Dino that he is happy how things are
turning out for him. Dino agrees with him and tells Rodolfo how fortunate he
has been to be the owner of all the fortune he possesses. Rodolfo tells Dino
that Renzo the gypsy will never have the opportunity to take all the fortune
that has been his since his Uncle Clemente's death. Rodolfo tells Dino that due
to his good mood he wants to celebrate and orders Dino to go to Astrid De
Marnier's castle and extend an invitation to the Countess for dinner. Island of
the Condemned: An accident occurs when falling rocks come sliding off the
hillside down towards the prisoners who are in the rockpits. Prisoners start to
scatter and others are unfortunate. Some prisoners become victims of the
falling rocks and get injured or die. Renzo appears to get hurt from the
incident.
Inside the hut: Adriana is helping her
friend Brasilisa. She tells her that she is happy to see her friend feeling
much better and how she will eventually be able to leave on the next boat for
Villa Florencia. Adriana tells her that she will go with her. Brasilisa asks
Adriana if she is willing to leave her husband. Before Adriana is able to
answer, Jonas shows his covered face through a hole in the hut and asks Adriana
if the woman didn't have the black fever. Adriana confirms to Jonas that
Brasilisa didn't have the black fever and she is feeling much better. Jonas
enters the hut and goes over to Brasilisa to touch her to ensure the fever is
gone. He tells Adriana to go back to her work because there was an accident
which happened at the rockpit. Jonas insinuates that Renzo could be injured. Adriana,
upon hearing this news, immediately leaves the hut. Brasilisa is left alone and
in the hands of Jonas. At the rockpit: The prisoners, who were not injured, are
helping those other prisoners who became victims of the falling rocks. Adriana,
arriving at the rockpit, yells Renzo's name out loud and receives no response.
Adriana sees Santiago and asks him if he has seen Renzo. Santiago tells Adriana
that all the wounded are being cared for in the caverns. At the Gypsy camp:
Dinilo, Manina and Rado are talking about why Zokka has left the camp. Dinilo
is explaining to them that Zokka will come back. Manina informs Dinilo and Rado
that she too will be leaving the gypsy camp to go on the next boat to the
island of the condemned to be with her son Renzo. From a distance, Rodolfo is
spying on the gypsy camp. Rodolfo tells himself that the gypsy woman better
find the information he wants because he needs to know whether his suspicions
are true or not about his cousin Renzo. He needs to confirm if Renzo the gypsy
is the son of his Uncle Clemente. Rodolfo then rides away. Isolda's Tavern:
Zokka is in a small room thinking to herself about how she can't trust Rodolfo
Farnesio. She remembers that Manina told her not to trust Rodolfo because he
only wants to hurt Renzo. Cleopatra enters the room and asks if Zokka has
settled in and Zokka says she has. Cleopatra tells Zokka that there are other
ways she could earn money and Zokka tells her she is not interested. Zokka asks
Cleopatra if Isa is a friend of hers. Cleopatra tells Zokka yes and that she
also lives there, but maybe not for long because she is going to be married. In
the main hall of the tavern, Claudio (Humberto's friend) and Isolda are
talking. He is asking Isolda for Cleopatra because he has a good time with her.
Isolda tells him that she is glad to have him for a customer in her place. At
that moment, Cleopatra is escorting Zokka to the area where she will be
working. Claudio sees the gypsy woman and asks Isolda who she is. Isolda asks
him if the gypsy woman is pretty. He agrees. Isolda tells her that
unfortunately the gypsy woman is working as a servant and not as one of her
courtesans.
Island of the condemned, inside the
caverns: Adriana is calling out Renzo's name. Renzo appears and she tells him
that she thought something had happened to him. She is happy to see him and
they embrace. Renzo tells Adriana that he is fine and not to worry about him.
He tells Adriana that he has to go back out to the rockpit to help those who
are possibly still alive. Adriana tells Renzo that she wants to help and he
tells her no and for her to stay in the caverns because the wounded need help.
Renzo tells Pedro that he leaves Adriana in his care and leaves. Inside the
hut: Brasilisa is covered up laying on the cot crying. Jonas is seen tying his
pants. It appears he has forced Brasilisa to have sex. Jonas, in a mocking
manner, tells Brasilisa that there is not doubt that she is feeling much better
and has recovered from her sickness. Astrid De Marnier's Castle: Astrid and Isa
are talking and she asks Isa why Humberto came to see her. Isa explains to the
Countess that Isolda told Humberto where to find her. Astrid asks Isa if
Humberto came to the castle to speak to her about their possible engagement.
Isa tells Astrid yes, but it won't happen until his sister comes back from the
convent. Astrid is surprised to hear Isa tell her that Adriana has secluded
herself in a convent. At that moment, Violeta escorts Dino into the livingroom
where Astrid and Isa are talking. Violeta informs Astrid that Dino has come to
the castle with a message from Rodolfo. Dino takes a good look at Isa and is
surprised to see her there.
Island of the condemned: Renzo is
helping out with the wounded prisoners. Renan sees Renzo and tells him to get
back to work because alot of time has been lost and the work needs to be
completed. Renan, noticing that Renzo is not listening to him, pulls a gun on
Renzo and orders him to go back to work. He tells him that the prisoners will
work extra hours to cover for those men killed from the falling rocks. Renzo,
who has had enough of Renan's orders is about to attack him when Santiago holds
him back and tells Renzo to think about his wife. Santiago tells Renzo that
Adriana loves him and would suffer if something were to happen to him. Renzo
tells Santiago that for Adriana he will have the patience because she is very
valuable to him. He tells Santiago that if he has to give up his life for her
tranquility then so be it. Santiago tells Renzo that anyone who loves in that
manner should not act that way. Santiago tells Renzo about his situation with
his wife Maria and how he gave up his life for her safety. He knows that she is
safe and everything he has done has been for her. At a different location, next
to a small house by the ocean: Santiago's wife Maria is talking with her father
who is telling her the day's work needs to be completed. Maria asks her father
if he has heard anything about Santiago. Her father tells Maria that it would
be better for her to forget about Santiago because Rodolfo Farnesio is the type
of man who will never give Santiago his freedom. Maria disagrees and tells her
father that Santiago is her husband and she will always love him. Inside the
cavern: Adriana and Pedro have helped the wounded and there is nothing else
they can do for them. They both leave to help the other prisoners. In the
livingroom of the Astolfi castle: Patricio, Aya Petra and Friar Quintin are
talking. Patricio is requesting that Friar Quintin let him go with the Friar to
the island of the condemned to help Adriana. Friar Quintin tells Patricio that
it is impossible for him to go because they only allow other Friar's and woman
to go to the island of the condemned. Aya Petra tells Friar Quintin that maybe
Patricio could disguise himself as a Friar and he would not be recognized.
Friar Quintin explains that it would be another lie he would have to deal with.
Aya Petra tells Friar Quintin that maybe he will need help when they go to the
place where you go to suffer or die. At that moment, Humberto overhears what
Aya Petra has said and demands to know where this place is that you go to
suffer and die. Humberto assumes the three of them are talking about Adriana
and asks where has Adriana gone to suffer and die.
Island of the Condemned, rockpit area:
Renzo goes to help Herasmo (old man with violin) when Jonas tells another of
his jailers that this old man is not going to survive and orders the other
prisoners to get back to work because he is not worth saving. Renzo tells Jonas
how can he be so inhuman because the old man is suffering and needs help. Jonas
tells Renzo that he has the solution. Jonas offers Renzo his dagger and tells
him that this is the only method that will end the old man's suffering. Jonas
tells Renzo that he can end the old man's suffering by using the knife. Renzo
tells Jonas that he is not a killer and Jonas tells him to obey his orders.
Pedro and Adriana overhear the conversation of what Jonas is telling Renzo to
do to the old man. Renzo tells Jonas that he is crazy and he will not do it and
if he were a criminal he would earn his position on the island. Renzo tells
Jonas that he is not a criminal and he won't be one for Jonas. Jonas holds the
knife at Renzo and tells him its his life or the old man's. Renzo tells Jonas
for him to choose. Jonas pulls his gun and points it at Renzo. At that moment
Adriana yells for mercy. Jonas asks Adriana what would she be willing to do to
save the life of her husband. He ends his sentence with an endearing "my
love". Renzo gets mad and tells Jonas not to say that to her. Jonas then
proclaims an announcement. He informs the other prisoners by yelling that he is
the owner of all their lives while they are on the island and as the jail
foreman everyone has to obey him. Pedro asks Jonas what is he doing and Jonas
tells Pedro that nobody better challenge him because he is in charge. Pedro
tells Jonas that everyone knows the position Jonas has and for him to demand
some respect and admiration from the other prisoners by allowing the wounded to
be attended. Jonas leaves and Renzo helps the old man. Renzo is upset and tells
Adriana never to humiliate herself before Jonas for him and asks Santiago and
Pedro to help him with the old man. Astrid de Marnier castle: Astrid informs
Dino that she would be delighted to have dinner with Rodolfo Farnesio and tells
Dino that she accepts the invitation. Dino is about to leave, but before he
goes he stares at Isa. Astrid informs Isa that apparently she has caused an
impression on Dino. Isa tells Astrid that Dino knows she works at the tavern
and since Dino works for Rodolfo he could tell him that she is a courtesan and
she would never be able to marry Humberto because Rodolfo would be related to
her if she marrys Humberto. Astrid tells Isa that its obvious that Dino likes
her so maybe she could go to him and tell Dino not to say a word about what she
is doing in learning the ways to become a lady of nobility and not telling
anyone about her past. In the livingroom of the Astolfi Castle: Humberto is questioning
Aya Petra what she meant by the place where you go to suffer and die. He tells
Aya Petra not to lie because he overheard the conversation they were having
about Adriana being in a place where you suffer and die. Aya Petra covers up by
saying the place she was talking about was the convent. Aya Petra tells
Humberto that Adriana has gone to this convent to seek peace for her heart ever
since she found out an innocent had been convicted and sent to the island of
the condemned to pay for the crime Humberto committed. Adriana could not
support it anymore and went to seclude herself in the convent. Humberto gets
upset, but listens to what Aya Petra is telling him.
Astrid de Marnier's castle: Isa catches
up with Dino to tell him if he wouldn't let anyone know that she is at the
castle being taught the ways of becoming a lady under the guidance of Astrid de
Mariner. Isa asks Dino a favor. She tells him not to say a word to anyone about
her past as a courtesan. Dino asks Isa how she was able to get the help from
the Countess and Isa tells him she asked for her assistance. Isa tells Dino
that if he does her this favor, they can become friends and reminds him that
she did him a favor once. (Flashback of Isa planting the ring in Renzo's pocket
on the day he was arrested and accused for murder). Inside the castle, Astrid
and Violeta are watching Isa and Dino through a window. Astrid tells Violeta
that Isa will be a very valuable tool for the plans she has in mind. Island of
the condemned, inside the hut: Brasilisa is laying on the cot crying when
Adriana arrives. Adriana asks her if she is feeling bad again. Brasilisa tells
Adriana that what hurts her is deep inside. Adriana tells Brasilisa that she
will feel better soon and it would only be a matter of time. Adriana tells
Brasilisa that when she leaves the island everything will be better. Adriana
informs her that she will recommend her to go to a place where she will be
taken care of. Brasilisa asks Adriana is she also leaving the island to go back
to Villa Florencia. Adriana tells her that she will also leave. Brasilisa tells
Adriana that Renzo is going to miss her and Adriana tells Brasilisa that she
will miss him too. Inside the cavern: Renzo is holding Herasmo with Pedro by
his side. The old man is saying that he is grateful to Renzo for saving his
life, but that he knows he is going to die. In appreciation for Renzo trying to
save him, Herasmo offers Renzo his violin and tells him where to locate it. At
the gypsy camp: Manina is dealing some tarot cards and pulls the first card
which is the picture of a magician. She tells herself this card says its a man
who has manipulated things to his favor to get rich from someones fortune. She
knows this man is Rodolfo Farnesio. She pulls a second card with the picture of
a tower and tells herself that it is a secret that has fallen and that Rodolfo
Farnesio knows who Renzo really is. Rodolfo Farnesio's Castle: Rodolfo is in
his study waiting for Zokka to arrive with some news. While he is waiting he
looks at the picture of his Uncle Clemente and starts to talk to it. Talking
out loud he tells his Uncle of the dishonor he has done to the Farnesio name.
Rodolfo tells himself that he will take care of any evidence that his Uncle
Clemente ever had of his marriage to a gypsy woman. Standing at the door is
Dino who has overheard Rodolfo's threat to his dead Uncle. Dino informs Rodolfo
that Astrid De Marnier has accepted his invitation to dinner. Rodolfo tells
Dino that whenever he wants Astrid, she will always come to him. Dino tells
Rodolfo that whatever the master wants he always gets and then he snickers.
(Dino knows about some documents from Rodolfo's Uncle that has always tormented
Rodolfo's memories from his past). The documents is the last will and testament
of Rodolfo's Uncle Clemente naming the sole heir to the Farnesio fortune.
Rodolfo has taken steps to find out if Renzo is or is not the son of his Uncle
Clemente and he has also arranged for Renzo to be killed. Rodolfo apparently
does not have the will and if someone were to find it and realize that he is
not the legitimate heir and that it states another persons name, then he would
lose everything. Dino tells Rodolfo that everyone would find out that he is not
the real Count but an imposter and laughs about it. Rodolfo pulls a sword on
Dino and places it against his throat and Dino gets scared. Rodolfo tells Dino
that nobody will ever find out the existence of Renzo the gypsy. Island of the
condemned, at the rockpit area: Adriana is placing rocks in a basket and at a
distance she sees Renzo and Pedro laboring. She thinks and tells herself that
it is going to hurt her when she leaves Renzo and she never wants to leave his
side. While she is thinking she is staring at him and he stares back. Renzo is
also thinking and tells himself why does Adriana avert her eyes or is she
hiding her feelings and he would like to know who she really is.
Astrid de Marnier's castle: Astrid is
asking Isa if Humberto told her why Adriana has secluded herself in a convent.
Isa tells Astrid she doesn't know. Astrid tells Isa that Rodolfo is not too
happy that his financee has secluded herself with the nuns and Isa laughs. Isa
asks Astrid does she like Rodolfo and Astrid tells her that he is a close
friend. Isa informs Astrid that she can count on her for anything and
everything. Isa tells Astrid that she can help her gain the favors of Rodolfo.
Isolda's Tavern: Humberto and his friends are drinking. His friends tell him
that he looks troubled and is drinking heavily because maybe his sister will convert
into a nun and not marry Rodolfo. At that moment a man walks into the tavern.
Cleopatra announces to everyone that it is the man whom Humberto claims he
killed. Humberto sees this person (believing it is the aristocrat Escarpa) and
gets spooked. He stumbles and leaves the tavern frightened. Night on the island
of the condemned: Renzo and Adriana are having their evening meal. He tells her
that they need to talk. Adriana asks Renzo if he is going to scold her again
because of what he had said to her earlier and he asks her to forgive him. He
tells her that he has no authority over her, but was upset about how she
humiliated herself before Jonas and he didn't like it. Adriana tells Renzo that
Jonas actually wanted to kill him. Renzo asks Adriana why she defended him with
such passion. Renzo then asks Adriana not to keep quiet about her feelings
anymore and tell him. She in turn tells him that she doesn't know what he is
talking about. He tells her he wants to know about her feelings. He wants to
know why she interceded for his life and she responds that she couldn't let
Jonas kill him. She tells him that he doesn't deserve to die. Renzo gets closer
to Adriana and almost kiss, but he backs off and tells her that she is lying.
He will not force her to tell him about her true feelings. Renzo asks Adriana
about Brasilisa and she tells him that she is fine. He informs her that maybe
she should go back to Villa Florencia tomorrow on the boat that is arriving on
the island. This way she would be safe. She tells him that she is concerned for
him and he says that soon she will have news from him and for her to get off
this island because her safety is the most important thing for him.
Rodolfo Farnesio's Castle: Humberto
arrives at the castle very drunk demanding to see Rodolfo. He tries to push his
way into the castle, but Dino blocks him when Rodolfo asks Humberto what he
came to the castle. Rodolfo escorts Humberto to his study and very furious
tells Humberto that he will not accept the drunken state of Humberto in his
castle. Humberto shouts to Rodolfo that his sister is not going to marry him.
Rodolfo asks Humberto what is he talking about. Humberto tells Rodolfo that his
sister went into the convent because she doesn't want to marry him and that
Adriana can't stand that her brother is an assassin. He tells Rodolfo that he
is willing to tell the truth. Island of the condemned, inside the hut: Renzo is
telling Adriana that the ship is coming very early tomorrow and he will not
accompany her. She asks him why. He tells her that he can't say goodbye to her
and that the moment he leaves the island he will catch up with her. He asks
Adriana if she will wait for him. She tells Renzo that she doesn't want to give
him any hope because she can't. He asks her why because he is a gypsy and she
tells him that it doesn't have anything to do with him being a gypsy. He asks
her why is she denying her true feelings for him because he can read it in her
eyes and he feels that she doesn't love him as much as he love her. Adriana tells
him that she can't love him. Renzo then tells her that just because he is
imprisoned on the island doesn't make him a criminal. Is this why she resists
in loving him. Renzo tells Adriana that he swears by his mother who he loves
the most and also for her that he is innocent for the crime that he has been
accused of. Renzo tells Adriana that he didn't kill a man by the name of
Escarpa. Adriana is shocked to hear this information and asks him why. Renzo
tells her that his only crime was to confront a very powerful man and help save
the honor of a young woman from Villa Florencia. Adriana asks Renzo who is the
powerful man and what is his name. Renzo tells her his name is Rodolfo
Farnesio. Adriana realizes for the first time that the man who she came to the island
to look for all along was Renzo. End of Part 1....to be continued Margie

on the Island of the condemned, inside the hut: Renzo is talking with Adriana
about how he was sent to the island of the condemned. Rodolfo Farnesio's
castle: Humberto and Rodolfo are discussing the topic of why he thinks Adriana
will not marry Rodolfo. Humberto tells Rodolfo that he doesn't want to see his
sister continue to suffer and is willing to tell the truth to the authorities.
Rodolfo is outraged and orders Humberto to stop. Humberto is arguing that he
didn't want to kill the man. Rodolfo tells Humberto that he is going to keep
quiet about this and he will not say another word about this again. Rodolfo
says that Adriana will be his wife and no one will stop him from marrying her.
Rodolfo threatens Humberto by telling him that if he says anything he will take
Humberto to the island of the condemned himself. Rodolfo orders Humberto to
leave because he has a dinner appointment with the Countess Astrid De Marnier.
Island of the condemned, inside the hut: Renzo is telling Adriana that the man
is an aristocrat who has influence and power to send an innocent man to prison.
Renzo asks Adriana if she is surprised to hear that there are men like that who
live in Villa Florencia. He also asks if she is not surprised that there are
other men who are also innocent and have been sent to this island for crimes
they didn't commit. Adriana, who has been crying ever since hearing the news
about Renzo's incarceration, begs him to stop telling her more about this
information. Renzo, not wanting to cause her any more pain, tells Adriana she
should get some rest because this would be the last time they see each other on
the island. Renzo tells Adriana for her to take care of herself. He slowly
grabs her hand and kisses the palm of her hand. He turns away from Adriana and
leaves the hut. Adriana tells herself that its him, the man who is paying for
the crime her brother committed and she can't believe what is going on. Rodolfo
Farnesio's castle:
The Countess Astrid De Marnier has
arrived at the castle and is waiting in the foyer for Rodolfo. Dino is trying
to entertain her until his master appears because she starts to get impatient.
She asks him where Rodolfo is. Dino, grabs this opportunity, and asks Astrid if
she would allow him to visit Isa at her castle. Astrid agrees and tells him
that Isa enjoys his company. Rodolfo then appears with Humberto following him.
Island of the condemned, inside the cavern: Renzo goes to find the violin which
Herasmo offered to him before his death. Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Rodolfo
sees Astrid and greets her while Humberto leaves without saying anything to
anyone. Astrid comments to Rodolfo that Humberto who will be his future
brother-in-law appears to be going through some troubled times. Rodolfo tells
Astrid that the conversation is not important and its none of her business.
Island of the condemned, inside the hut: Adriana is talking to herself about
how could she become an accomplice to such an injustice. How could she accuse
Renzo, a man who is honest and kind. She has no idea what she will do now. In
what manner can she repair the damage she has caused. Adriana prays to her
mother for guidance on how can she help Renzo. Isolda's Tavern: Zokka is
cleaning dishes when Isa walks in the room to pick up some mugs and is
surprised to see the gypsy woman. Isa tells Zokka that if she is here then
maybe she left the gypsy camp because she can't predict the future in reading
hands. Zokka tells Isa that is not true, she is working in the tavern because
she needed a job. Isa remembers that Zokka had read her hand before and asks
her to read it again. Zokka looks at Isa's hand and says nothing. Isa tells her
if she sees a marriage. Zokka tells Isa that her hand does not say there will
be a marriage at all and also tells her that the hand doesn't lie. Isa tells
her that she has lost her power to predict the future. Rodolfo Farnesio's
castle: Rodolfo and Astrid are lying in bed drinking wine. Astrid asks Rodolfo
why did he summon her for a night of pleasure. Rodolfo tells Astrid that he
enjoys her company and wanted to spend the night with her. Astrid asks Rodolfo
if he feels love for her and he doesn't respond. Astrid comments that if he
enjoys her company will he also enjoys Adriana's company too after they are
married. Rodolfo warns Astrid that Adriana is a sacred topic and to refrain
from speaking about her because it is between him and Adriana. Isolda's tavern:
Zokka is in her room staring at the moon. She prays to the moon and asks that
the moon carry a message for Renzo. She wants him to know that she loves him
and sends him a kiss.
Island of the condemned: Renzo has taken
the violin, given to him by Herasmo, to the river. He is playing a tune by the
light of a crackling campfire. Inside the hut: Adriana is sitting on the cot
and suddenly hears the sound of music being played from a violin. She says to
herself that it is the same music she heard from the gypsy in the forrest and
realizes it could be Renzo and leaves the hut in search of the music's origin.
Near the campfire: Adriana walks towards the sound and sees the person who is
playing the violin. She realizes it is Renzo, the gypsy from the forrest when
she first heard the music in Villa Florencia. Renzo, who is playing the violin,
feels someones presence. Adriana starts to walk away. Renzo realizes when he
stops playing that Adriana has been watching him and calls out her name. Before
she starts to leave, she turns around and walks toward him. Renzo tells Adriana
that she was the woman in the forrest. He tells her that at that time destiny
had united them through the sound of music. He tells her that destiny has
brought them together again on the island even from the obstacles they have
faced and tells her that he loves her. Adriana tries to tell Renzo that he
doesn't know what he is talking about because she has never been in the
forrest. Adriana feeling trapped leaves Renzo. Renzo (talking to himself )
tells a departing Adriana to go ahead and leave because he knows that she was
the woman in the forrest. Renzo tells himself it is better that Adriana leave
the island of the condemned. Adriana, who has distanced herself from Renzo,
tells herself why can't she tell him the truth and confess to him who she is in
reality. Both she and Renzo are crying. In the morning on the island of the
condemned: Brasilisa is rushing towards the shore where the boats are anchored
waiting for the relatives of the prisoners to embark on the ship that will take
them back to Villa Florencia. Jonas room: Renan asks Jonas if he is going on
board the ship back to Villa Florencia. Jonas tells Renan that he is not going
back this time and for him to handle and oversee the expedition. Renan asks
Jonas that since he is not going back to Villa Florencia he won't need to meet
someone and bring them up to date with news concerning Renzo. Renan then
leaves. At the monestary: Friar Quintin and other Friars are loading supplies
on board several wagons that will be taken to the loading area in preparation
for a trip to the island of the condemned. Friar Quintin tells Florentino that
he will go ahead to the Astolfi castle and for the wagons to go to the loading
area.
Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Astrid and
Rodolfo are in his bedroom lying in bed. Astrid tells Rodolfo that she can't
believe that he is going to marry Adriana de Astolfi and go from being a single
man to a married man. He assures Astrid that his marriage will not impede him
from enjoying other womens pleasures. Astrid, using some discretion, tries to
find out why Rodolfo wants to marry Adriana. Rodolfo tells Astrid he wants
Adriana to become part of his treasures. Astrid tells Rodolfo that Adriana has
used her time in the convent to attract him. Rodolfo tells Astrid that Adriana
has promised to marry him and she will. At that moment, Rodolfo gets up and
tells Astrid that their time together has ended because he has important things
to do and asks her very politely to leave. Rodolfo leaves the room. Astrid
tells herself that Rodolfo hasn't seen the last of her yet. Island of the
condemned: The boats have arrived on the shore of the island of the condemned
waiting for its passengers to board the ship that will take them back to Villa
Florencia. In the rockpit area: Renzo and Pedro are in the rockpit. Renzo is
working hard at his labor. Pedro tells Renzo that if continues to work hard he will
wear himself out. Renzo tells Pedro that he is fine and Pedro tells him that
maybe he is trying to forget Adriana. Renzo tells him that at that moment she
must be getting ready to board the boat to the ship. Pedro asks him if he was
going to see Adriana leave and Renzo tells him no because soon they will be
together again. Renzo goes to leave and Pedro asks him where he is going. Renzo
tells him that he is going to the river and then he will see the boats leave.
On the beach by the boats: Adriana is talking with Brasilisa telling her that
she hopes someday she will smile again and find someone special. Renan walks up
to them and asks if they will be boarding the boat because it was ready to
depart. Brasilisa tells Adriana they must get on board. Adriana tells Brasilisa
that she is not leaving the island and informs her to go to the Astolfi castle
and ask for Aya Petra. She tells Brasilisa to tell Aya Petra that she has come
from the island of the condemned and that Aya Petra will take care of her. Again
Renan goes over to them and tells them to get on board the boat or they would
be left behind. Brasilisa thanks Adriana for saving her life, gives her a hug
and walks towards the boat. Pedro walks up to Adriana and asks her why she has
not boarded the boat to leave. Adriana asks Pedro where Renzo is and he tells
her that there is no time for them to say goodbye and tells her that Renzo has
gone to the river. Adriana tells Pedro that she has decided to stay. Pedro
tells her that she should leave the island of the condemned and that her
presence would only cause the death of Renzo. Pedro grabs Adriana by the arm
and pulls her towards the waiting boats while Adriana is telling him no. Astrid
de Marnier's castle: Violeta informs Isa that she has a visitor. Isa is
exciting thinking it could be Humberto, but is surprised to see it is Dino.
Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Rodolfo walks
back into his bedroom and tells Astrid that he is in a hurry and for her to
leave because he is going to the convent to pick up Adriana. Astrid tells
Rodolfo that she wishes him luck in getting Adriana away from the convent. At
the Astolfi castle: Friar Quintin is talking with Aya Petra and she offers him
food for those prisoners who are on the island of the condemned. Friar Quintin
is waiting for Patricio to join him. Patricio walks up to them dressed in a
Friar's outfit. It is his disguise to accompany Friar Quintin to the island of
the condemned. At the river on the island of the condemned: Adriana goes to the
river and sees Renzo's clothes laying by the riverbank. She picks up his shirt
and caresses it with a kiss. Unknown to Adriana, Renzo is swimming in the river
and sees her. Adriana notices Renzo. She becomes nervous and embarrassed and
turns her back to him because he is about to get out of the river. Renzo gets
out of the river, picks up his clothes and puts them on. He tells Adriana not
to be ashamed. He asks her what she is doing there and shouldn't she be on her
way back to Villa Florencia. Adriana tells Renzo that Pedro tried to force her
to get on the boat, but she didn't want to leave. Adriana tells Renzo that he
is on the island injustly and its something that is burning her inside and
doesn't let her live and it is the reason she is staying. She tells him that
she is willing to share his same misfortune. Renzo turns Adriana around and
asks her if she stayed for love and if her heart told her to stay with him by
his side. Renzo holds Adriana near and almost kiss. Adriana tells Renzo that it
was her conscience that dictated her to stay with him on the island. She would
never forgive herself if something were to happen to him while she was gone.
Renzo tells Adriana that together they will both leave the island of the
condemned and find happiness away from this place that has only brought them
sadness. Adriana tells Renzo that this nightmare has marked very heavily her
heart forever and impedes her from loving him. Adriana tells Renzo that she
needs to talk with him about the injustice that was committed against him and
he stops her by saying that the injustice will be avenged. Renzo tells her that
he is going to take revenge against the person who committed the crime and
those people who helped him. Adriana asks Renzo who is he referring to and he
tells her again. Adriana (thinking to herself) says she can't tell Renzo the
truth that she is one of those people who has kept quiet about the crime
because he would hate her and she would not resist his hatred. Renzo tells
Adriana that he does not want for her to continue to live in this nightmare and
he is going to take her to the boats on the beach.
At the Astolfi castle: Aya Petra is
saying her goodbyes to Friar Quintin and Patricio. She tells Patricio to return
with Adriana soon. Friar Quintin tells Aya Petra that Adriana will return home
soon. Patricio assures Aya Petra that he will not return from the island
without Adriana. Astrid de Marnier's castle: Dino is visiting with Isa and has
brought her a gift. Dino has given her a bracelet which Isa has accepted. Dino
is glad Isa appreciates his gift. Isa asks Dino if he is Rodolfo's confident
and Dino tells her that he knows alot about Rodolfo's past. Isa asks Dino if
Rodolfo knows about the crime committed by Humberto and tells her that Rodolfo
knows and not to worry. Dino tells her that the situation has been taken care
of. At the gypsy camp: Manina is saying her goodbyes to the other gypsy's
because she is going to meet up with the boat that will take her to the island
of the condemned to see her son Renzo. Island of the condemned: Renzo is
pulling Adriana by the arm and they are walking on the beach in hopes of
catching the boat before it reaches the ship that will transport its passengers
back to Villa Florencia. When they reach the area to board the boat, Renzo
realizes its too late and the ship has set sail back to Villa Florencia.
Adriana produces a smile and is happy that they didn't make it in time for her
to leave the island. Renzo walks up Adriana and caresses her face and stares
into her eyes wondering that now she is at the mercy of the island again.
Adriana tells Renzo that since he is planning on escaping the island, then she
would like to go with him. Renzo tells Adriana that there was no reason for her
to take this risk of escaping the island and that she could have left on the
ship and would have been safe. Adriana tells him that he must understand that
she can't leave him alone. Renzo tells Adriana that he will protect his and her
lives together.
Isolda's tavern: Zokka is cleaning up
and talking with Cleopatra and asking her questions about Isa and how Isa is
going to marry an aristocrat. Cleopatra tells Zokka that a friend of Isolda's,
who is an aristocrat, is helping Isa become a lady of nobility. Zokka asks
Cleopatra when is Isa planning on getting married and Cleopatra tells her that
it depends on Humberto if he will marry her. Astrid de Marnier's castle: Dino
and Isa are talking when Astrid approaches them. Dino informs Astrid that he is
visiting Isa because she has given him permission to see her. Astrid asks Dino
if Isa has been a good hostess and Dino tells her yes. Isa immediately tells
Astrid that she was going to ask him to stay longer, but Dino then informs them
that he has things to do for Rodolfo Farnesio and leaves. Astrid tells Isa that
she has noticed how Dino has affection for her and maybe this would be a good
opportunity for Isa to find out the reason Rodolfo wants to marry Adriana. At
the monestary: Rodolfo knocks on the door and Florentino opens it. Rodolfo asks
to speak with Friar Quintin and Florentino informs him that the Friar has left
on a trip. Rodolfo gets upset and asks if the Friar has gone to the convent
without him and wants to know where it is. Florentino tells him that he doesn't
know where the convent is located and that the Friar has gone to the island of
the condemned. Rodolfo is furious and asks when the Friar is coming back.
Florentino tells Rodolfo that the Friar will not be back for a few days.
Rodolfo leaves. Astrid de
Mariner's castle: Isa is telling Astrid
that she thinks Dino will not tell her about what is going on between Rodolfo
and Adriana. Astrid thinks that Adriana is sacrificing herself because of the
misfortune of the Astolfi family or maybe there is a horrible secret because
she noticed how Humberto was worried after visiting with Rodolfo last night.
Astrid is curious why Humberto didn't ask her permission to come and visit Isa.
Isa tells her that maybe its because he is taking care of other things. Astrid
asks Isa if those things that have been occupying Humberto lately have anything
to do with Adriana being in the convent. Astrid asks Isa to find out the
information. On the shore of Villa Florencia: The boats have arrived on the
beach and its passengers are disembarking. Dinilo and Rado have accompanied
Manina who is waiting for the boat to return back to the ship that will sail
back to the island of the condemned. She tells them goodbye and walks up to a
man sitting down. This man is Renan. She asks Renan if this is the boat that
will go back to the island of the condemned because she is Renzo's mother and
wishes to be with him. Renan tells Manina that the prisoners are only allowed
one visitor at a time and that he already has his wife with him. Rado asks who
is the woman. Renan looks puzzled. Danilo explains that maybe the woman is his
granddaughter who has gone ahead. Renan tells Manina that she will not be
allowed to go. Manina is shocked to hear this news and walks away upset. Island
of the condemned, in the rockpit area: Adriana has several memory flashbacks
and remembers when she and Renzo went to the ocean and he poured sea water over
her bloody hands, a result of her first time working in the rockpit, how Renzo
has caressed her face and the time they shared a kiss. She tells herself that
she can't tell Renzo who she really is because she doesn't want him to hate her
and she wouldn't be able to support it. Renzo walks over to Adriana and tells
her that she looks very tired and should get some rest. Adriana assures him
that she can continue to work. Renzo tells Adriana to go back to the hut and
get some rest that no one will miss her for a few minutes. Adriana tells Renzo
that she will go and return soon. Adriana walks away and Renzo returns to his
labor. Santiago sees Adriana leaving the rockpit area and also notices that
Jonas, who is on a horse, following her away from the rockpit area. On the
shore of Villa Florencia: Manina is begging Renan to let her board the boat and
he tells her that she will not be able to go and for her to leave the area.
Manina is frustrated and sees some Friars arriving with supplies and loading
them on the boats. She stops one of the Friars and asks for his help. It is
Patricio in disguise. Manina asks the Friar to take a message to her son Renzo
and tell him to have faith and for him to find a way to get back home to his
people. Patricio tells Manina that he will deliver the message. Renan meets up
with Dino. Dino asks where Jonas is and Renan tells him that he stayed behind
and would be glad to give him a message. Dino tells Renan to tell Jonas that
when he comes back to Villa Florencia to look for him. Renan asks Dino if it
has anything to do with the favor Jonas has been paid for. Dino stares at
Renan. At the Astolfi castle: Aya Petra is ordering the other servants to fix
Adriana's room because she is coming home and at that moment Rodolfo arrives
and overhears Aya Petra's orders. Rodolfo is demanding to know why he was not
informed of Adriana's return. Rodolfo asks when Adriana will arrive and Aya
Petra tells him that Friar Quintin has gone to get her at the convent. Rodolfo
tells Aya Petra that the Friar has gone to the island of the condemned and
wants to know if there is some mystery that he should know about.
Island of the condemned, in the rockpit:
Santiago goes to Renzo and asks him where did Adriana go. Renzo tells him that
she went to the hut for a moment. Santiago tells Renzo that he saw Jonas
following Adriana. Renzo upon hearing this information immediately tries to
leave but is stopped by a jailer on horseback. Inside the hut: Adriana is
cleaning herself and suddenly notices that someone is nearby. Jonas appears and
walks into the hut. Adriana is stunned to see him and backs away. She asks him
what he is doing there. Jonas tells Adriana that she is the most beautiful
woman he has ever seen. Adriana tells him not to get close. Jonas tells Adriana
that she shouldn't have left her work without permission, but he will forget
her dareness and discipline if she is willing to submit to his desires. Jonas
reaches out to grab Adriana and she tells him not to touch her. Jonas tells
Adriana that he can touch her anytime because she is going to be his and if she
resists it would be worse. Whether she likes it or not she will become his
woman. Jonas grabs, traps and holds Adriana while she struggles. Renzo walks
into the hut and tells Jonas to get away from Adriana. Jonas pulls a knife on
Adriana and holds it near her throat and tells him to try and stop him from
making Adriana his. Jonas tells Renzo that he will finally get rid of Renzo

Sunday June 25, 2000 (1st Hour): Island of the condemned, inside the hut: Jonas
is holding and threatening Adriana with a knife next to her throat when Renzo
walks into the hut. Renzo tells Jonas to let his woman go. Jonas tells Renzo
how is he going to stop him from making Adriana his and that he is going to
kill him. Renzo tells Jonas to go ahead and kill him because it will be the
only way to stop him from defending her. Renzo provokes Jonas to kill him.
Renzo asks Jonas if he was afraid of him. Jonas tells Renzo that he wants to
get rid of him. Jonas, while still holding Adriana, attempts to kiss her neck.
When he tries Renzo, at that very moment, launches himself forward only to be
stopped by Jonas pointing the knife in his direction. Astolfi castle: Rodolfo
is asking Aya Petra the whereabouts of his financee Adriana. Aya Petra tells
Rodolfo that she is under the impression that Friar Quintin has gone to get
Adriana at the convent. Rodolfo tells Aya Petra that he has found out that
Friar Quintin has gone to the island of the condemned instead. Rodolfo asks Aya
Petra why does he have the feeling that they are lying to him. Aya Petra
assures Rodolfo that he is being told the truth. Humberto is listening to the
conversation going on between Aya Petra and Rodolfo behind a column of the
living room. Neither one of them see him. Aya Petra tells Rodolfo that she is
looking forward to seeing Adriana, but didn't realize that Friar Quintin had
gone somewhere else. Aya Petra tells Rodolfo that if Friar Quintin had to go
the island of the condemned before going to the convent to get Adriana, then
the both of them would have to wait a little longer to see Adriana. Rodolfo
sensing a presense nearby, turns around to see Humberto standing by, listening
to them talk. Island of the condemned, inside the hut: Jonas tells Adriana that
she will just have to wait for him and pushes her aside. Adriana lands on the
cost just as she sees Renzo and Jonas fighting. Jonas attacks Renzo several
times with his knife and during the fight Renzo receives a knife wound from
Jonas. Adriana yells to Jonas to stop before he kills Renzo. Jonas stops and
tells Adriana that he wants to kill the gypsy so that she can become his. Renzo
tells Jonas that he is a coward and that it will never happen. Jonas tells
Renzo that he will get rid of any obstacles that will prevent him from the woman
he desires. Jonas tells Renzo that he is going to get rid of Renzo once and for
all. Adriana gets up from the cot and stands between Renzo and Jonas. Adriana
stands before Renzo and warns Jonas that he will have to kill her first. On the
beach of Villa Florencia: Dino is talking with Renan and asking him what he
knows about the gypsy. Renan tells Dino somebody is worried about Renzo and
that person is his mother. Renan points to a gypsy woman walking away with two
gypsy men. Dino looks in the direction Renan is pointing to and sees the woman.
Dino looks back at Renan with a surprised look. Renan tells Dino that there are
others who are intertested in getting rid of the gypsy. Renan suggests to Dino
that maybe it is he who wants to be rid of the gypsy. Dino asks Renan who told
him this information and tells him nobody should know about this. Renan informs
Dino that he knows everything. Renan tells Dino that maybe higher authorities
would be interested in finding out this information that he knows. Dino asks
Renan if he is asking for a bribe. Renan tells Dino that if he wants him to
deliver a message to Jonas, then it would be done for a price. Dino pulls out a
bag of coins and drops it a Renan's feet. Dino orders Renan to tell Jonas that
he will look forward to seeing him very soon. Renan picks up the bag of coins
and prepares to board the boat to get back to the ship that is ready to sail
back to the island of the condemned.
Island of the condemned, inside the hut:
Renzo tells Adriana to get out of the way and leave him alone with Jonas.
Adriana tells Renzo no. Jonas asks Adriana if she is willing to sacrifice her
life for this wretched man. Adriana provokes Jonas by telling him to go ahead
and kill her. Jonas leans forward and puts the knife up to Adriana's face and
holds it there. Jonas tells Adriana that he is not going to kill her. Jonas
tells Adriana that he will not give Renzo the satisifaction that a beautiful
woman is going to sacrifice her life for him. Jonas tells Renzo that he is very
luck because if it wasn't for his woman he would be dead and that Renzo should
be grateful that she has saved his life this time. Jonas pulls the knife way
from Adriana's face and walks backwards out of the hut to leave, holding this
knife pointed in their direction. Renzo, having been cut by Jonas' knife, goes
to sit down on the cot holding his right forearm. Adriana goes to fetch a
pitcher of water and a rag and sits with Renzo to help clean up the blood from
his cut. Adriana tells Renzo to forgive her that it is because of her that
Jonas wants to try to get rid of him and end his life. Renzo informs Adriana
that in the past Jonas has tried to molest her. Renzo tells Adriana that he
doesn't understand why Jonas harasses him more than any of the other prisoners.
Adriana tells Renzo that she doesn't understand either and gets up from the cot
and tells him that they should get back to the rockpit. Renzo asks Adriana that
he doesn't understand her and how can she defend someone that doesn't mean
anything to her. Renzo asks Adriana that a moment ago she risked her life for
him and he wants to know why did she do it. Adriana keeps quiet and says
nothing.
Astolfi castle: Rodolfo and Humberto are
talking. Humberto is reminding Rodolfo that a few days ago he ordered him not to
go look for Adriana. Rodolfo tells Humberto that he has changed is mind.
Rodolfo tells Humberto that he can't trust the word of Friar Quintin. Rodolfo
orders Humberto to search the convents and find which one Adriana might be at.
Aya Petra enters their conversation and suggests that nobody should intercede
with Adriana's return from the convent and wait for Friar Quintin to bring her
back. Humberto tells Aya Petra to stay out of the conversation because she is
just a servant. Rodolfo tells Humberto not to sensor Aya Petra for her
concerns. Rodolfo informs Humberto that he is not going to wait for Friar
Quintin to return with Adriana. Rodolfo informs them that if Friar Quintin
doesn't show up with Adriana, he will present him before the authorities and accuse
him of being a liar. Island of the condemned, inside the hut: Adriana is
telling Renzo that she can't permit Jonas to do anything to him because Jonas
will hurt him. Adriana tells Renzo that she is grateful for him stopping Jonas
from doing what he wanted to do with her. Renzo is surprised and questions why
is she grateful and would she have risked her life for another man. Renzo asks
Adriana for her to tell him the truth. He wanted to know if she would put her
life in danger and be grateful to another man. Renzo asks Adriana if he doesn't
mean anything to her. Adriana tells hims how can he think that way. Renzo tells
her that everytime he gets near her, she always backs away. Renzo tells her
that when he looks into her eyes he can see love, fire and passion. Renzo tells
Adriana that her attitude expresses something different then what her eyes are
saying. Renzo questions her and asks if she is lying to him. Adriana tells
Renzo that she is staying by his side because she believes in him and his
innocense. Adriana tells him that a man as honest and loyal as he should not be
paying for a crime he didn't commit and is on the island for this injustice.
Renzo questions Adriana and tells her that his stay on the island is not a
reason for her to stay also and suffer all the penalties they have gone
through. Adriana tells Renzo that she has nothing more to say and tells him
that whatever his luck is torments her. Adriana tells Renzo that she knows that
he should be free and happy, but is incarcerated on the island from hell. Renzo
tells Adriana that he is on the island suffering a fatal destiny. Renzo tells
Adriana that it is not compassion he seeks from her and storms out of the hut
with Adriana following behind him.
Gypsy camp: Dino is in the forrest
watching the gypsy camp from a distance. Two gypsy children (Rosalina and
Valentin) are playing in the forrest and see Dino. Dino asks the children if
they live in the gypsy camp. The children befriend him. The children ask him if
he likes the gypsy's. Dino tells them that he has a friend named Renzo. Dino
takes this opportunity to ask the children about Renzo's past. Rosalina tells
Dino that Renzo is a prisoner on the island of the condemned. Dino tells her
that maybe Renzo's parents are very worried about him. Rosalina tells Dino that
Renzo doesn't have a father, he died a long time ago and his name was Nicola.
The children's father is calling their names and finds them with Dino. The
father takes his children away and tells Dino that he is not aware of Renzo having
any friends in Villa Florencia. The gypsy tells Dino not to come near the gypsy
camp again. Dino (talking to himself) says that he finally found out what he
needed to know.
Island of the condemned, near the
rockpit: Renzo is walking ahead with Adriana following behind him. She is
calling out his name and he stops to face her. Adriana tells Renzo for him not
to misunderstand what she has told him because she is doing it for his own
good. Renzo tells Adriana he doesn't know why she is doing this because all she
has is compassion for him. Adriana tells Renzo no. Renzo grabs Adriana and
pulls her up close to him. Renzo asks Adriana if she loves him as much as he
loves her and he demands to hear it from her. Renzo asks Adriana that he needs
to hear it from her lips, but Adriana looks away. Renzo lets go of her and
pushes her away. He tells her that she should have left on the boat. Renzo asks
Adriana if it is not love that is keeping her by his side then he wants to know
what is. Adriana leaves. Pedro is talking with Renzo and tells him that he saw
him and Adriana arguing. He asks Renzo what happened to his forearm. Renzo
tells Pedro that he is confused and wants to know why Adriana has stayed on the
island because she has told him that she wants to help him. Renzo tells Pedro
that Adriana has no feelings for him and doesn't love him. Pedro asks Renzo if
Adriana actually told him that and Renzo says no. Renzo tells Pedro that her
silence confirms everything that he has been saying. Renzo tells Pedro that
when he asks her, she keeps quiet and looks away. Renzo tells Pedro that she
doesn't love him. Pedro tells Renzo that if he doubts her then he shouldn't go
crazy over a woman like her especially since he keeps being mistreated on the
island over her. Renzo tells Pedro that he loves Adriana, his heart is a slave
for her and he can't fight against his feelings for her. Adriana is carrying a
basket full of rocks and sits a moment to rest. As she sits down she begins to
think back. (Flashback memorys) Adriana recalls the time when Renzo is
explaining to her that he swears by his mother that he didn't kill a man by the
name of Discarpa. She hears voices: Humberto saying he killed a man, her mother
asking her to look after Humberto, she remembers asking who was the innocent
man sentenced for this crime and Rodolfo saying that the man accused was a poor
devil and Renzo asking her why did she come to the island of the condemned. She
remembers when she and Renzo were at the river and he was asking her if she
stayed on the island because of love. Adriana (talking to herself) tells
herself how can she tell him that she loves him with all her strength. Her love
is being hidden to cover up for her brothers action. How can she demonstrate
her love to him because it is her fault that he is on the island. In a
different location, the house by the ocean: Maria (Santiago's wife) and her
father Martin are talking. He is telling Maria that he is happy that she
learned to write from the teachings of the Friars. Maria tells her father that
she could teach me and he tells her that maybe one day. Martin asks Maria if
she would help him write a letter to Isa to let her know that he and his family
had to leave Villa Florencia in a hurry and return to this house by the ocean.
Maria wonders why Isa has not tried to communicate with them. Martin tells
Maria that even though Isa grew up as part of the family, she chose to live her
life with Isolda at the tavern. Isolda became her protector and he just wants
Isa to know that her family has moved back to the house near the ocean where
they never should have left.
Island of the condemned, at the rockpit
area: Santiago is talking with Adriana. Santiago asks Adriana why she is
crying. Santiago tells her that she is lucky to be near the man she loves because
he can't say the same. Adriana tells Santiago not to worry that maybe some day
he will get to see Maria again. Santiago tells Adriana that no one ever leaves
the island of the condemned alive. Santiago tells her that he will never forget
the name of the man who ruined his life. Adriana says the name of Rodolfo
Farnesio. Santiago leaves and Adriana (talking to herself) says Rodolfo
Farnesio has caused alot of damage. Astrid de Marnier Castle: Isa and Humberto
are having a picnic. Isa asks Humberto if he will be gone for a while. Humberto
tells Isa that he has to go and it will be for a couple of days because he
needs to visit his sister. Isa gets upset and asks him if he is going to go
look for her at the convent and Humberto tells her yes. Isa asks Humberto if he
will allow for her to accompany him in order for her to meet his sister and get
to know her. She reminds him that she is prepared to be presented as a noble.
Island of the condemned: Adriana is washing some bowls when Pedro approaches
her to sit down beside her. Adriana tells Pedro that she is glad to see him and
needed to speak with someone. Pedro tells Adriana that he also needed to talk
with her and she asks him if something has happened. Pedro asks Adriana why is
she staying on the island because he is concerned about her motives. Pedro
tells her that if the man she came looking for has died, then why is she
staying by Renzo's side. Pedro asks Adriana if she wants to ruin Renzo's life.
Adriana looks at Pedro and tells him not to think bad of her. Adriana tells
Pedro that she knows he likes Renzo almost like a son and that her only
intention is to help him. Pedro tells Adriana that he will understand her
persistence if she told him that she loved Renzo because he has noticed that
she is not too sincere with Renzo. Pedro asks Adriana if she is hiding
something from Renzo. Adriana tells Pedro please do not doubt her intentions
because she needs Pedro to believer her. Adriana tells him that Renzo is such a
good man that she would never forgive herself if something happened to him on
the island. Pedro tells Adriana that her voice seems to suffer as much as her
heart. Pedro informs Adriana that he would like to know what she is hiding deep
inside her soul.
Astrid de Marnier's Castle: Isa is
escorting Humberto inside the castle and he tells Isa that he doesn't have
permission to come inside. Astrid sees the two of them and tells Humberto that
it is an honor to receive the Marquis de Astolfi into her house. Astrid asks
Isa why didn't she announce Humberto's arrival. Isa tells Astrid that she
forget because she was very emotionally happy. Isa informs Astrid that Humberto
has asked her to accompany him on his journey to visit his sister at the
convent. Humberto tells Astrid that a lady should not accompany a gentlemen on
such a journey. Astrid, to the contrary, agrees and consents for Isa to go with
Humberto. Island of the condemned, at the rockpit area: Jonas, on horseback, is
provoking Renzo by asking him where Adriana is. Renzo tells Jonas to go to hell.
Jonas asks Renzo if Adriana went back to the hut because he wants to continue
where he left off. Renzo tells Jonas to leave Adriana alone. Jonas tells Renzo
that Adriana is the one who is persistent with him. Jonas tells Renzo that when
Adriana was in the hut washing herself, she did it to arouse him. Jonas tells
Renzo that Adriana is pure fire, and the moment that Adriana was out of Renzo's
sight, she started to seduce him. Renzo is furious and goes to attack Jonas.
Jonas pushes Renzo away. Pedro is talking with Adriana and telling her that her
presence has caused Jonas to mistreat Renzo more than any other prisoner on the
island. Adriana tells Pedro that she doesn't understand why Jonas continues to
harass them because she has not given him any motives. Hutid approaches Pedro
and Adriana. Hutid, who hates Adriana informs her that Jonas and Renzo are
fighting again and tells her if she is interested to know why. Adriana, upon
hearing this information, gets up and leaves to find Renzo. Rodolfo Farnesio's Castle:
Rodolfo and Dino are talking and Rodolfo is telling Dino that he is an imbecil
and not capable of getting a message to Jonas. He tells Dino that if Jonas did
not come to Villa Florencia, he should have gone to see him. Rodolfo starts to
mistreat Dino and Dino tells him that he shouldn't. Rodolfo reminds Dino that
he is his servant and doesn't obey his orders. Dino reminds Rodolfo that he is
not his servant but his right hand man and he knows alot of information about
Rodolfo. Rodolfo tells Dino that as his right hand man he is a disaster because
he should have gone to the island to ask the foreman if he ended the life of
the gypsy. Dino informs Rodolfo that even though they don't know, he has some
new information that is very important and merits a drink and some money.
Island of the condemned, rockpit area:
Jonas is telling Renzo that he is superior over Renzo and Renzo has dug his own
grave. Renzo tells Jonas that he would gladly go to his grave once he has
finished with Jonas' life. Adriana reaches Renzo. She tells Jonas to stop and
asks him why he can't leave Renzo alone for a moment. Jonas laughs and is
amused at how Renzo uses his woman to defend him and without her he is nothing.
Renzo tells Adriana to leave because she doesn't need to defend him. Adriana is
about to tell Renzo that she wants to help but he yells at her to leave. Jonas
tells Renzo that he should not mistreat a woman like the one he has. Renzo is
grabbed from behind by one of the jailers and held by force. Jonas rides slowly
up to and behind Adriana. Jonas grabs Adriana by the throat and holds on to
her. Jonas tells Renzo that a woman like Adriana should be treated differently.
Renzo struggles and trys to break free. Jonas asks Renzo to decide if he wants
to keep Adriana so he can continue to mistreat her or if he accepts Jonas to
treat her the way she deserves. Jonas lets go of Adriana and she goes to Renzo
who is still being held by the jailer. Jonas orders the jailers to take Renzo
to the solitary confinement cell where he is to spend the night and not to be
given any food or water. Rodolfo Farnesio's Castle: Dino is informing Rodolfo
that he has some interesting information. Rodolfo tells Dino that he will wait
to hear what he has to say before he can reward him. Dino tells Rodolfo that
before he says anything he wants to see the money first because his information
has something to do with Renzo's past. Rodolfo pulls out a bag of coins and
tosses it on the floor at Dino's feet. Rodolfo demands Dino to tell him the
news.
At the gypsy camp: Dinilo and Manina are
talking. Dinilo tells Manina that he is worried about her and how she is
dealing with her feelings. Manina tells Dinilo that her only comfort is knowing
that his granddaughter Zokka is with her son Renzo on the island. Dinilo tells
Manina that Zokka loves Renzo and if she journeyed to the island of the
condemned to be with him it would make Renzo's life less miserable. Rodolfo
Farnesio's Castle: Dino informs Rodolfo about the name of Nicola. Dino asks
Rodolfo if this name meant anything to him. Rodolfo tells Dino that he doesn't
know what he is talking about. Dino tells Rodolfo that isn't it the name of a
gypsy who came to this castle years ago to give his Uncle Clemente documents
which have tormented him all these years. Rodolfo tells Dino that he doesn't
remember very well that maybe it could be the name Nicola. Dino tells Rodolfo
that he found out that Renzo's father disappeared years ago and his name was
Nicola. Island of the condemned, underneath a shaded hut: Jonas goes to the hut
to lay down on a hammock to rest. Adriana approaches Jonas and tells him that
he can't send Renzo to solitary confinement without any motives. Jonas tells
Adriana that Renzo is an obstacle that will not permit him to be near her.
Jonas tells Adriana that now that Renzo has been locked up who will protect her
this evening. Adriana, using some tactic, gets closer to Jonas and asks him if
he truly wants to spend the night with her. Jonas is surprised to see Adriana a
little submissive and tells her that he would be more lenient towards her man
and reaches out to touch her face. Adriana reaches out to touch Jonas' face and
tells him that if she were to treat Jonas well would he stop harassing them.
Jonas grabs Adriana and pulls her down on top of the hammock pinning her
underneath him. Jonas begins to caress and kiss her and tells her that they are
beginning to understand one another. Adriana struggles and trys to fight off
his advances and reaches for his knife. She manages to push him off of her and
gets up off the cot holding the knife towards her chest. Adriana tells a
stunned Jonas that only in death would he have her and tells him that her life
only belongs to her husband Renzo. Adriana tells Jonas that if he doesn't allow
her to be by Renzo's side, she will kill herself. Pedro slowly starts to walk
up to her and Adriana sees him. She informs everyone around her for nobody to
come near or she will kill herself. Adriana begins to push the knife into her
chest when Pedro calls her name. She is momentarily distracted when Jonas
launches himself towards her to take the knife away from her. He goes to her
and grabs her face with his hand and tells Adriana that since she is looking
for mistreatment she will get it. Jonas orders his jailers to take Adriana and
place her in another solitary confinement cell. Adriana is grabbed by two
jailers as she yells no. Adriana will spend the night isolated next to her
wretched husband. Jonas tells Pedro to get out of his sight.
Rodolfo Farnesio's Castle: Rodolfo is
telling Dino that he thinks Dino is exaggerating with his discovery. Dino
doesn't think so. Dino tells Rodolfo that he knows that Renzo's father has
supposedly died a long time ago just like the gypsy that came to the castle.
Dino tells Rodolfo that he finds it a very interesting coincidence. Rodolfo
tells Dino not to imagine things that they could be two different people. Dino
tells Rodolfo that he remembers the last time he saw the gypsy alive was at the
castle. Rodolfo asks him what is he saying. Dino tells him that the gypsy took
the road where nobody ever returns, especially in the dungeons of his castle.
Rodolfo tells Dino to stop because he didn't like his insinuations. Dino tells
Rodolfo not to distrust him because he is his loyal servant. Dino asks Rodolfo
if he is happy to know more information about the truth regarding Renzo the
gypsy. Island of the condemned, solitary confinement cells: Renzo is in his
cell when he sees two jailers escorting Adriana to the other cell next to his.
Adriana is placed inside the cell and the jailers leave. The cells are
separated by a wall. Renzo asks Adriana how did she get placed in the cell.
Adriana tells Renzo that it didn't matter how she got there because her purpose
was to be with him. Renzo tells Adriana that he can't imagine how he has
succumbed to this hell hole and found love on the island. Renzo asks Adriana
why does he feel love if his love is not returned. Adriana tells Renzo not to
torment himself. Renzo tells Adriana how does she expect him to feel because he
is a gypsy and all he knows is how to live free under the stars. Renzo asks
Adriana what damage has he done to deserve this mistreatment and this injustice
for being incarcerated. Adriana tells Renzo not to speak that way. Renzo,
sounding bitter, asks Adriana if she is defending those individuals who did him
wrong. Adriana tells Renzo that they too are suffering for his injustice. Renzo
tells Adriana that he doesn't understand her rationalization. Renzo tells her
that her innocense doesn't allow for her to know that not even God can forgive
how a man can be sentenced for a crime and be innocent especially a man who
would never hurt anyone.
Rodolfo Farnesio's Castle: Dino tells
Rodolfo that he understands that this information is very distasteful because
of the history of a man who supposedly may have disappeared from the dungeons
of his castle. Dino tells Rodolfo not to quit and find the documents that could
prove the identity of the gypsy boy who could possibly be Renzo. Rodolfo tells
Dino that the he wants to end the matter of their conversation. Dino changes
the subject and asks Rodolfo how did his journey go in search of Adriana and if
Rodolfo brought her back to the Astolfi castle. He tells Dino that Friar
Quintin has disappeared and he doesn't know where Adriana is. Dino offers to
search for Adriana and Rodolfo tells him that he has ordered Humberto to search
for her instead. Rodolfo orders Dino to find the gypsy who promised to bring
him more information about Renzo. Dino informs Rodolfo that it would not be
convenient for him to go back to the gypsy camp after what he found out today.
Rodolfo warns Dino that if he doesn't go find the gypsy to find the information
he is looking for, Dino will take the same route where other people have gone and
never come back. Dino understands the order. Isolda's tavern: Zokka is cleaning
off the tables full of bottles. Orlando, Claudio and his other friends are
drinking and having a good time. Orlando is talking to Claudio and telling him
that Humberto is wasting his time and should be at the tavern enjoying himself.

and tries to grab her by the waist. Zokka is furious and drops the bottle.
Orlando tells her that he likes her more than any of the other women in the
tavern. Claudio grabs a knife and pushes Orlando warning him that if he touches
her again he will have to deal with him. Everyone who was watching the incident
starts to laugh. Zokka walks away. Island of the condemned, inside the solitary
confinement cells: Renzo and Adriana, each in their respective cells, stretch
their arms outside the cell to touch one another. Adriana tells Renzo not to
think about it anymore because he is filling his heart full of hatred and revenge.
Renzo tells Adriana that she is too generous because she always has something
intelligent to say to calm his spirits. Adriana tells Renzo that she is happy
to hear that his voice has returned to a more harmonious tone just like water
runs through a river. Renzo tells Adriana that not to long ago he was able to
see her eyes and now he consoles himself with just hearing her voice. Renzo
asks Adriana why can't she love him because knowing that she doesn't love him
causes him alot of pain. Adriana tells Renzo that its not that she doesn't love
him because her soul is ashamed and impedes her from loving him. Renzo asks
Adriana what shame is she talking about that maybe if she were to open her
heart he could help her with whatever is bothering her because love can do
anything. Renzo tells her that maybe the love he has for her will return peace
to her soul. Adriana tells Renzo to forgive her because she doesn't feel
capable to reveal her pain and for him to possibly see her as a sister.
Night at the Astolfi Castle: Humberto is
telling Aya Petra that first thing in the morning he is going to look for

family. Island of the condemned, solitary confinement cells: Renzo tells
Adriana that he could never see her as a sister because the love he has for her
is different. Astrid de Mariner's Castle: Astrid and Isa are discussing about a
dress that would be perfect for Isa's journey. Astrid asks Violeta what she
thinks of the dress. Violeta tells Astrid that she gives Isa too much
confidence, even though she is teaching Isa, Isa is still a cortesean in a
tavern and that any day she could betray her. Isa tells Violeta that she is
envious of her. Astrid informs the two of them that Isa wouldn't betray her
because she would only be placing a rope around her neck. Isa tells Astrid that
maybe her servant is jealous about the confidence which Astrid has placed on
Isa. Isa tells Astrid that she has given her lots of instruction and she will
never have enough days to thank her and be grateful. Astrid reminds Isa that
everything she has taught her will only be because Isa will owe her for
anything that Astrid wants her to do. Isa agrees. Astrid tells Isa the day she
betrays her will be the end of Isa. Isolda's tavern: Zokka is asking Isolda
when is Isa coming back. Isolda tells Zokka that Isa is not returning back to
the tavern and that she will be away for a couple of days. Zokka, in a
desperate manner, tells Isolda that she needs to see Isa. Isolda asks Zokka why
she wants to know when Isa will return. Zokka tells her that it is important
she see Isa. Isolda tells Zokka that she will have to wait and if she didn't
want to wait she could always leave. Isolda tells Zokka that she is causing her
more problems than satisfaction. Zokka asks Isolda if she is referring to the
men. Isolda tells Zokka yes because those men are very important customers for
her business. Zokka tells Isolda that she will be careful the next time. Isolda
tells Zokka that she will discount from her pay the bottle that Zokka broke and
if it ever happened again Zokka will have to offer her body in payment for any
further damages.
Island of the condemned, solitary
confinement cells: Renzo is informing Adriana about a young lady (Zokka) who is
suffering because of his departure. Adriana asks Renzo who this person is and
if he loves her. Renzo tells Adriana that he could have loved her but not as
much as he loves Adriana. Renzo tells Adriana that he could never see this
young woman anymore than just a sister. Renzo has taken off the charm he wears
around his neck and reaches over from his cell to offer it to Adriana. He tells
Adriana that it is a gypsy amulet. Adriana reaches over from her cell and grabs
it. Renzo is telling her that it is gypsy amulet given to him by this young
woman and it is the only valuable thing he has. Adriana tells Renzo that she is
grateful for the gift and to her it means that he has confidence in her.
Adriana tells Renzo that hopefully one day she will be able to tell him
everything of what she wants to say to him but right now she can't. Adriana,
holding the amulet kisses it and then places it around her neck. Morning on the

for him and was expecting to see him. Renan tells Jonas it was a man by the
name of Dino. Renan tells Jonas that Dino has sent him a message. Dino wants

for someone and starts to walk towards them. Friar Quintin and Patricio, who is
in disguise, are standing by the boats. Patricio informs Friar Quintin that he
doesn't see her. Friar Quintin tells Patricio that he doesn't like what is
going on. Pedro walks up to Friar Quintin and asks him if something is
bothering him or is looking for someone on the island. Friar Quintin tells
Pedro that he is bringing a message to a woman from her family. Pedro asks
Friar Quintin what is the name of the woman because since he has been on the
island for a long time he knows the woman who visit the island. Patricio
interrupts Friar Quintin just when the Friar is about to say the name of
Adriana and tells Pedro that they don't know the name of the woman. Pedro
questions Friar Quintin about Patricio and Friar Quintin informs him that he is
new to the monestary.
Inside the solitary confinement cells:
Adriana is sleeping in her cell when a jailer tosses water over her to wake her

being helped by a jailer while Renzo is being helped by Pedro. Patricio sees
Adriana and informsFriar Quintin that it is her. Adriana looks at Friar
Quintin. When Adriana reaches Friar Quintin he asks her what have they done
toher. Friar Quintin looks Adriana over to see if she is ok. Adriana, making
sure her identify is not discovered tells Friar Quintin that she is Luna and
does he remember her. She tells him that her name is Luna, the laborer who
worked in the tavern. Friar Quintin is surprised to hear her say the name Luna.
Pedro, somewhat confused, asks Friar Quintin if his religion permits them to
visit thetaverns. He tells Friar Quintin he has been isolated for so long that
doesn’t know if their customs have changed. Adriana placesher hand on Friar
Quintin for support. Patricio answers Pedro’s question that it is not the
Friar’s who visit the taverns but the poorwoman who seek their comfort and goes
to touch Adriana’s hand. Renzo sees Patricio’s gesture and looks confused.
Pedro tells the Friars that he understands.Renan is talking with Jonas and
telling him that Dino is very interested in getting rid of Renzo who has become
a very important person to him. Jonas tells Renan that he is not stupid and
that he is looking for the right moment and once he gets rid of Renzo, his
woman will be his. Renan tells Jonas that he might be interested to know
something about Renzo’s woman. Jonas asks Renanwhat is he talking about. Renan tells
Jonas that he is willing to tell him about Renzo’s woman if he agrees to share
his payoff with him. Jonas gets upset and grabs Renan by the throat and tells
Renan if he thinks that he is an idiot and being taken for a fool.Renan tells
Jonas that it is up him to believe if the information he has is a lie or if it
is true, especially since hearing it in Villa Florencia. Jonas sees Renzo and
Adriana nearby and immediately walks over to where they are surrounded by Friar
Quintin,Patricio and Pedro. Jonas yells to Renzo that he and Adriana did not
have permission to be away from their labor because both ofthem had been
punished. Jonas orders Renzo and Adriana to go to the rockpit. Renzo yells back
to Jonas telling him that hiswoman has not eaten any food since the day before
and that he can’t force her to work under that condition. Jonas grabs Renzoby
the chain and pulls him down onto the sand. Renzo, who is chained by hand and
feet, stumbles and falls. Renzo is held downby another jailer. Jonas tells Renzo
that if he continues to complain, Adriana will pay the consequences. Jonas
orders them tomove. Pedro intercedes and tells Jonas that neither Renzo nor
Adriana deserve the treatment that he has given them. Pedro tellsJonas that
Renzo is the one who works the most out of all the prisoners. Jonas mocks Pedro
by telling him that he can do theirwork and hits him. Patricio intervenes and
stops Jonas from hitting Pedro any further and tells him that he is cruel to
the prisoners.Jonas tells Patricio that he does his job and for the Friar to do
their jobs and leave the island soon. Jonas tells Patricio that therules on the
island are very strict.

the rockpit when Adriana approaches him and tells him that Santiago has found some
fruitfor them to eat. Renzo tells Adriana that she should eat the food because
she needs it more than he does. Adriana asks Renzowhat is wrong and why did he
say it that way. Renzo tells Adriana that he is jealous of the life she lived
in the tavern. Renzo asksher how many men have noticed her beauty. Adriana
confesses to Renzo that she has never had any relationships with other
men.Renzo tells her that he can’t believe her. Adriana looks away hurt. Renzo
tells Adriana that she is so beautiful and he wouldn’tdoubt that no man
wouldn’t want to be near her. Renzo asks Adriana that he doesn’t even know the
kind of relationship she hadwith the man who died on the island. Renzo tells
Adriana that if the man wasn’t her father or her brother then it must have been
herlover. Renzo asks Adriana if she would admit that she loved that man.
Adriana tells Renzo that she didn’t love that man. Renzoasks Adriana who was
that man and what importance did he have in her life. Adriana tells Renzo not
to ask her any morequestions which she can’t answer. Renzo tells Adriana that
she can’t go on living her life keeping quiet. Renzo comments bysaying what
would the Friars think of her, since they already know her, if she came to the
island to be with one of the prisoners.Renzo tells her that the Friar’s
wouldn’t consent if they knew that the man had died and she is with another man
pretending to behis woman. Adriana says nothing and looks away.In the forrest

to helpthat innocent man and will not leave until he is free. Friar Quintin
tells her that she has lost her mind and calls Adriana by her truename. Adriana
tells Friar Quintin not to call her by her real name because no one knows her
real identity and she is known on theisland as Luna. Adriana tells Friar
Quintin that she doesn’t want anyone to know, especially Renzo because if he
were to find outwho she really is, he would reject her help. Friar Quintin
tells Adriana that if she doesn’t go with him willingly then he would forceher
to go because she didn’t realize the fury of Rodolfo Farnesio if he knew where
she was. Adriana tells Friar Quintin that shenever wants to see that man ever
again. Adriana kneels before Friar Quintin and begs him not to take her with
him. Renzo seesAdriana kneeling and approaches them. Renzo tells Adriana that

proposition. Jonas tells Renan that Renzo’s woman will be his. Renan reminds

that will take her back to Villa Florencia. As he stares at Adriana he sheds
some tears because she has left the island. Inside a tavern: Isa and Humberto
have gone into a tavern to rest and drink from their journey of searching for

more convents they have to visit. Island of the condemned: Renzo watches
Adriana getting further and further away from the island. Santiago tells him
that his brother Patricio will look after Adriana and protect her from Jonas.
Renzo (memory flashback) remembers when Patricio told him that he was not in
fact a Friar. Renan sees Renzo's sad face and notices that Renzo has shed tears
and tells him that crying is for woman and that he should remember that he is
still punished. Renzo turns to leave and Santiago follows him. Before he climbs
back up the hill, Renzo pauses and looks out to sea where he sees the ship
sailing away. On board the ship: Adriana is standing somewhere on board the
ship with Patricio by her side. She tells him to wear his hood from the Friar's
disguise so that Jonas will not recognize him as the person who wanted to
escort her on the trip over to the island. Adriana, holding the gypsy amulet,
calls out Renzo's name when Jonas hears and approaches her. Jonas tells Adriana
not to shed any tears for the gypsy now that she is by his side. She tells him
not to disturb her peace. Jonas forces himself upon Adriana and tells her that
he will take care of her. Patricio, who is standing by, does nothing but hide
his face so he is not recognized. Adriana tries to fight off Jonas' advances
while he tries to force a kiss on her. She tells him to let her go, since Renzo
is not with her, he has no right to abuse his authority. Patricio yells to Jonas
that Adriana wants for him to let her go. Jonas tells Patricio that he is in
charge aboard the ship. Patricio tells Jonas that the Friars are looking after
Adriana and will protect her from him. Jonas, ignoring Patricio, continues to
force himself on Adriana wanting to kiss her when Patricio yells at him to
leave her alone at once. Friar Quintin joins them and orders Jonas to let
Adriana go that he can't go against her wishes. Jonas lets go of Adriana and
she moves away from him into the protective arms of Friar Quintin. Jonas leaves
mad. At a tavern: Humberto tells Isa that Adriana will suffer when she gets
married and Isa just laughs. Isa tells Humberto that Count Farnesio is a very
powerful man and she will not suffer because he will shower her with riches and
lots of valuable items and grant her with whatever she desired. Humberto tells
Isa that Adriana is not capricious. Isa tells him that if she is not, then why
has she been hiding in a convent for such a long time. He tells her that
Adriana wanted to give her soul some peace and she would sacrifice her life for
him and marry Count Farnesio even though she didn't love him. Isa, mockingly,
tells Humberto that she would sacrifice herself too for a man as rich and
interesting as Count Farnesio. Humberto, feeling very possessive, tells Isa
that she belongs to him. Island of the condemned, at the rockpit area: Renzo is
laboring in the rockpit and thinks back. Renzo remembers (memory flashback)

Adriana by his side and that he must escape the island before his desperation
kills him.
On board the ship: Adriana is standing
by the railing of the ship thinking to herself. She swears by her life that she
will return by his side and prays to God for him to understand the love which
has flourished within her and for God to help her return back to the island

arrived into the town and have staged a festivity. Dino, who is walking around,
seems to be looking for someone. Rado sees Dinilo and walks towards him. Dinilo
tells him that he hopes Zokka will show up at the festivities. Rado tells him
that he would like for her to show up too. Rado asks Dinilo where Manina is and
he tells him that she is desperate and suffering for Renzo and has decided not
to join them with the festivities. At the abandoned gypsy camp: Manina is all
alone at the gypsy camp reading her tarot cards by her wagon. She sees a card
that tells her there is a man who is lurking around with bad intentions and has
the appearance of a hunchback. She remembers the children describing a man who
is hunchback and recalls that Rodolfo Farnesio employs a hunchback in his
service. Manina tells herself that she will not permit anyone to hurt Renzo
because of her fault. Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Rodolfo is talking to himself
and saying that soon he will be rid of any indications of Renzo the gypsy and
that Renzo's mother has to die and if necessary so will the young gypsy woman.
He walks over to the picture of his Uncle Clemente and tells the portrait that
there will be no one left who will know the truth about Clement Farnesio's son.
Rodolfo tells his Uncle's portrait that he will keep the castle and the land
and he will marry the beautiful Adriana de Astolfi. He says no one will ever
doubt his po wer and honor because he is the only Count Farnesio. On
board the ship: Friar Quintin is sitting next to Patricio. Adriana is standing
nearby. Friar Quintin tells Patricio that he is to go to Rodolfo Farnesio's
castle to inform him that he can visit Adriana at the convent of Las Mercedes.
Patricio asks Friar Quintin if he would allow him to accompany them to the
convent. Friar Quintin tells him that it would be impossible and for him to
depart immediately because it wouldn't give anyone any time to know what truly
happened. Friar Quintin tells him to stop by her castle and keep up some
clothing for Adriana and to remember not to show up at Farnesio's castle
wearing the Friar's disguise. There is an indication the ship has reached the
shores of Villa Florencia. Friar Quintin tells Patricio to go ahead and leave
because he will take care of Adriana. Patricio reluctantly agrees and leaves.
Friar Quintin gets up to join Adriana and tells her they should get ready to
leave the ship. Jonas joins them and tells Friar Quintin that his mission has
just ended and he will take care of Adriana from this point on. Jonas tells
Adriana that she has to obey him because he is ready to leave. Adriana tells
him that she will not leave with him. Jonas grabs Adriana's arm and tries to
take her and Adriana defends herself by biting Jonas on the arm. He lets her go
and she races away from him. Before Jonas can go after Adriana, Friar Quintin
stops him and tells him that he is a cruel man and not to go after Adriana.
Jonas looks at Friar Quintin and walks away. On the boats arriving at the dock
of Villa Florencia: Adriana and the other passengers are cruising towards the
shore. As the boat reaches the beach, Adriana immediately leaps over the side
of the boat and starts to run away. Friar Quintin yells out her name to come
back and not to do something stupid. Friar Quintin climbs onto a carriage to
follow her. Inside the town of Villa Florencia: Adriana comes into town and as
she is running on the street she immediately bumps into Zokka. Zokka notices
that Adriana is nervous and asks her what is wrong and if she can help. Adriana
stares at Zokka. Zokka immediately sees the gypsy amulet that Adriana is
wearing around her neck and asks her where she got it. Adriana, feeling
panicky, turns and runs away from Zokka. Zokka goes after Adriana to stop her.
Adriana comes upon the gypsy festivities and sees a man who is playing a violin
and looks very much like Renzo. She approaches him and sees that he is not
Renzo when Zokka catches up to her. Zokka asks Adriana who she is and where did
she get the gypsy amulet. At that moment, Friar Quintin grabs Adriana and pulls
her towards the waiting carriage. Zokka tries to go after Adriana when Rado
stops her.

prays to God and asks him to watch over her. At the abandoned gypsy camp:
Manina is at the gypsy camp standing by her wagon. She is holding Renzo's
violin and goes to a campfire to light a torch. She tells herself that God
should forgive her, but that she can't permit Farnesio to continue to hurt
Renzo because of her and that no one should know anymore about her. She also
asks that Renzo forgive her and hopes the other gypsy's will understand her
motives for what she is about to do. Manina, carrying the torch, walks over to
her wagon and climbs inside. She begins to light the wagon on fire and when the
wagon is in flames she sits down inside to cry. At the Astolfi Castle: Aya

with. Riding in the carriage: Adriana and Friar Quintin are riding in the
carriage. Adriana is telling Friar Quintin that God will not forgive her for
the disgrace committed towards that man. Friar Quintin tells her that God will

gone along with her false pretenses and that all she did was risk her life and
her virtue and would like to know when the nightmare will end. Island of the
condemned, at the rockpit area: Pedro and Renzo are laboring in the rockpit.
Pedro asks Renzo if it was true that one of the Friar's was not who he claimed
to be and that in reality he was Santiago's brother. Renzo tells Pedro that he
couldn't help noticing how the man would look at Adriana. Pedro tells him that
jealously is a terrible thing that could ruin a noble heart and for him not to
allow it to dominate him. Renzo tells Pedro that Adriana finally confessed to
him that she loved him. Pedro asks Renzo if he knew Adriana well enough to
believe in her words. Renzo looks at Pedro with concerned eyes. In the town of
Villa Florencia: At the gypsy festivities, Zokka is standing by herself acting
out a dance when Claudio approaches her from behind. Zokka feels a presence and
when he tries to grab her by the waist, she pulls away. Claudio immediately
backs off and tells her that he didn't want to scare her. Zokka tells Claudio
that she didn't expect to see him at the festivities. Claudio asks her why
isn't she taking part in the festivities. Zokka tells him that her spirit
dances and sings with her people. Claudio asks Zokka why doesn't she dance and
sing for him and she tells him that it isn't the manner in which she returns a
favor. She tells him that she hopes her words of gratitude are sufficient
enough for his help the other day in the tavern. Claudio doesn't agree. Rado
calls Zokka by her name and Claudio finds out who she is. Claudio repeats her
name and tells her that it is a very interesting name for a gypsy. Claudio
tells her that he will leave her gypsy spirit to be free with her people. Rado
asks Zokka who was that noble and what was he doing with her. Zokka just looks
at Rado. Riding the carriage: Adriana and Friar Quintin are riding in the
carriage. She is telling him that she will return to the island at whatever
cost. He is telling her that he doesn't understand her persistence and asks her
to tell him about this man. Friar Quintin questions Adriana about why she had
to fake that he was her husband on the island and if at anytime he didn't try
to endanger her virtue. She tells Friar Quintin that she didn't understand his
concern. Friar Quintin asks Adriana if she has fallen in love with the gypsy.
At a convent: Humberto has arrived at another convent asking for his sister
Adriana. The Mother Superior informs and confirms to him that the convent is
not accommodating the person he is looking for. He asks the Mother Superior if
there are any other convents he can visit and she tells him there is one more
he can try. Isolda's tavern: Dino walks into Isolda's tavern and sees Isolda
with her other courtesans. She greets him by telling him that he is their first
customer. Isolda asks Dino what she could do for him and he asks her in a low
voice for Isa Valenti. Isolda yells out loud Isa's name and starts to laugh.
Isolda tells Dino that Isa has left very early in the morning accompanied by
the Marquis de Astolfi and doesn't think she will be back soon and tells him
that there are other young ladies for his pleasure. Isolda calls Cleopatra over
for Dino's approval. As Dino begins to look, Jonas walks into the tavern and
sees Dino and recognizes him as the hunchback. Jonas tells Dino that it was a
coincidence that he had been looking for him. Dino and Jonas sit at a table.
Dino asks Jonas if he has completed the task in killing Renzo the gypsy. Jonas
tells Dino that he has not done the task and that he has come to see him to
talk to him about it. Dino asks him why Renzo has not been killed since his
arrival on the island and why has he taken so long in doing it. Jonas tells
Dino that he has noticed some strange things about the gypsy. Dino asks him
what strange things. Jonas asks Dino why he is so interested in having Renzo
killed or if there is someone else who is behind it all and he is not saying
who. Jonas asks Dino if he knows the gypsy well by which Dino tells him no.
Dino tells Jonas that all he knows about the gypsy is that he killed a noble
and he was convicted. Jonas tells Dino that since he has been condemned to the
island, sooner or later he will die there and why the hurry to have him killed.
Dino tells him that it is not any of his business. Jonas gets upset and tells
Dino if he thinks that he is stupid. Jonas tells Dino that if he is interested
in Renzo's death, he should be paid more. Dino tells him that it wasn't part of
their deal. Jonas tells him that there has been some complications and Dino
asks him what complications. Jonas tells him that a woman arrived on the island
claiming to be his wife and this has made things more complicated. Dino tells
Jonas that he didn't know Renzo had a wife. Dino asks what her name is and
Jonas tells him it is Luna, a woman who drives him crazy. Jonas tells Dino that
he is going to keep her after he kills the gypsy, but he needs more money to
complete the task.
Somewhere in the forrest: Humberto and Isa
are riding in the carriage and he is ordering his driver to go to the one last
convent he has to visit. Isa tells Humberto that Adriana sure knows how to hide
herself because apparently she doesn't want anything to do with Count Farnesio.
Humberto tells her that he is worried about how Rodolfo Farnesio is going to
react when he finds out that he has not been able to find Adriana. At the
convent: Friar Quintin and Adriana have arrived at the convent of Las Mercedes.
Friar Quintin tells Adriana that he is sure the nuns will accept her to stay at
the convent for a while. Adriana begs Friar Quintin and tells him that she
can't stay at the convent. Friar Quintin tells Adriana that she needs to stay
at the convent to regain her inner peace and serenity. Friar Quintin tells her
she needs to take some time and think things through. Adriana tells Friar
Quintin that her life can never have serenity knowing that the life of that
innocent man is in danger while on the island. She begs Friar Quintin for his
help in returning to the island. Friar Quintin tells Adriana that they will
talk about it later, because they have to continue with the lie they started
and Rodolfo Farnesio will come to visit her soon. Rodolfo Farnesio's Castle:
Patricio has gone to Farnesio's castle to deliver the message to Rodolfo.
Rodolfo tells him that it is the first time he is happy to see him, but once
Adriana and he are married, he will dismiss Patricio from her service. Patricio
tells Rodolfo that he has fulfilled his obligation by informing him that he can
go and visit Adriana at the convent of Las Mercedes. Patricio asks him if he
will go and visit her and Rodolfo tells him that he will not only go and visit
her but he plans on bringing her back to his castle because a convent is not a
place to prepare for their wedding. Island of the condemned: Pedro and Renzo
are taking a break. Renzo is telling Pedro that he loves Adriana more than his
life and that he will do anything in his power to have her by his side. Pedro
asks Renzo to listen to him because he cares for him like if he was his own
son. Pedro tells Renzo that it hurts him to see how he is suffering for
Adriana. Pedro tells him that he knows how a woman's heart is because they can
easily betray. Renzo doesn't agree because he doesn't think Adriana would do
anything like that. Pedro tells him that the heart of a man who is in love is
very noble and fragile and that it is very easy to lose it in the illusions of
its brilliance. Pedro warns Renzo for him not to give Adriana his heart until
he is convinced that she speaks the truth to him. Renzo agrees with Pedro that
he doesn't know Adriana's past and he has doubts in his heart. Renzo tells him
that he feels she was sincere when she told him that she loved him. Pedro tells
him that the love of a woman can be very deep when it is right, but when it is
not they can be very cruel and deceptive. Pedro tells him that he should be
very careful and for him to consider all that he had told him. Renzo tells
Pedro that it would be very hard for him to believe that Adriana would betray
him. Renzo tells Pedro that he will follow his advice. Renzo, in a low voice,
tells Pedro that the moment they arrive at Villa Florencia he will go and look
for her and he can confirm if her heart is honest. Pedro asks Renzo if he is
willing to risk his life to escape the island of the condemned. Renzo tells him
yes because his life on the island makes no sense. Renzo tells him that he will
construct a raft to leave the island in order to reunite with the woman he
loves. Pedro asks him does he know where to look for Adriana. Renzo tells him
that he knows she works in a tavern and that he is willing to search all the
taverns until he finds her. Isolda's tavern: Dino is telling Jonas that they
have already made a previous deal and for him not to try to be too ambitious.
Dino tells Jonas that nobody tries to fool and he stops before saying a name.
Jonas questions Dino about who he is trying to hide. Dino tells Jonas that
nobody tries to fool the man. Jonas asks who is the man. Dino tells Jonas that
it is not any of his business. Dino offers Jonas a bag of coins and tells him
that the money should be sufficient. Jonas opens the bag to check the coins and
tells Dino that he is in disagreement with Dino. Jonas tells Dino that he
deserves more money from the person whom Dino is hiding behind for the death of
Renzo the gypsy. Dino tells Jonas he will get him the money before he does back
to the island of the condemned. Jonas agrees and calls over a courtesan by the
name of Sakaria. At the convent: Adriana, who is being assisted by Sister Luz,
is walking down a corridor of the convent. Adriana tells Sister Luz that she is
not planning on staying in the convent for very long because she has a very
important business matter that she needs to attend to. Sister Luz tells Adriana
that she will feel better once she has bathed and under the conditions she has
arrived at the convent she needs to get some rest. Adriana tells her that it is
not important because she needs to leave the convent soon. Sister Luz looks at
Adriana's appearance and asks her where has she been and tells her that her
wounds need to be cared for. Friar Quintin and Mother Superior Esperanza are
talking. She is telling him that Adriana's stay at the convent will help her
receive the peace and serenity she seeks. Friar Quintin asks her if she will
make an exception and consent a visit by Count Rodolfo Farnesio to see Adriana
at the convent. As Adriana and Sister Luz are walking down the corridor,
Adriana notices there are men in laborer's clothing. She asks Sister Luz why
are they permitted to be inside the convent. Sister Luz tells Adriana that the
men are working as laborer's who are building the hospital inside the convent.
Sister Luz tells Adriana that the men come in the morning and leave in the
afternoon. In the forrest: Rodolfo Farnesio is riding his carriage towards the
convent at a fast speed. Inside the carriage Rodolfo is talking to himself. He
says that Adriana is going to return with him even if he has to pull her out of
the convent. At a convent: Isa and Humberto have finished visiting the last
convent for the day. Isa asks Humberto when will they continue to search for
his sister. Humberto tells her that he has to speak with Rodolfo Farnesio. Isa
asks Humberto if he is scared of Rodolfo and wonders if Adriana is also afraid
of Rodolfo. Humberto tells her that Rodolfo is the most powerful and cruelest
man in Villa Florencia.
In the town of Villa Florencia: At the gypsy
festivities, Zokka approaches Rado and tells him not to worry about her anymore
because she is going to continue to help Renzo even if she has to confront all
the forces of nature. At that moment, her grandfather Dinilo sees her and asks
her if he is a part of the forces she has to confront. Dinilo asks Zokka why
didn't she confront him about her purpose. Zokka asks her grandfather for
forgiveness and tells him she shouldn't have left the gypsy camp the way she
did. Zokka explains to her grandfather that she has been going through a major
confusion which has taken over her about all that has happened and she didn't
know what to do. Dinilo asks Zokka if now she is clear as to what has happened.
Zokka tells her grandfather that she will use every means possible to help
Renzo and then she will return with her people. Dinilo kiss her forehead and
Zokka looks at Rado and then leaves. Rado wants to go after Zokka, but Dinilo
stops him and tells him that she has to go and fulfill her destiny. Astrid de
Marnier's Castle: Astrid is asking Isa if she and Humberto visited all the
nearby convents of Villa Florencia. Isa confirms to Astrid that they went to
all of them with no luck. Isa tells Astrid that maybe it is not true that
Adriana has secluded herself spiritually and maybe she has escaped with a
hidden lover. Isa tells Astrid that Humberto doesn't believe that Adriana would
do such a thing. Isa tells Astrid that Adriana couldn't be found in any one of
the convents that she and Humberto have visited. Astrid tells Isa that she too
finds it very strange. Isolda's tavern: Dino is talking with Isolda and she is
telling him that Isa would never be satisfied with a man like him. Dino asks
Isolda if it is true that Humberto is going to marry Isa since she is after all
a courtesan. Isolda tells Dino that appearances can be deceiving. At that
moment Zokka walks into the tavern and Isolda spots her. Isolda asks Zokka
where she has been all afternoon and before Zokka is able to respond her she
sees Dino. Dino sees Zokka and before he can reach her, Zokka turns around and
dashes out of the tavern leaving Dino behind. Isolda witnesses the incident and
laughs. Isolda tells Dino that with his looks he has scared the poor girl away
and that he should change his appearance so that pretty woman will notice him.
Dino asks Isolda if the gypsy woman works for her and she tells him just as a
servant. Isolda tells Dino that for a sum of money she could possibly convince
the gypsy woman to join the other courtesans. At that moment, Isolda sees
Humberto who has just arrived in the tavern and she tells Dino that Humberto
arrived alone without Isa. Dino walks up to Humberto and tells him that his
master believes he is searching the nearby convents for his sister. Humberto
tells Dino that Rodolfo Farnesio will have to wait a couple of more days to
find out where Adriana is. In the town of Villa Florencia: Jonas and Sakaria
have arrived at the gypsy festivities after the celebration has ended. Sakaria
tells Jonas that the festivities are over and he asks her if it was a gypsy
celebration. She tells him that the gypsy's had organized a festivity in the
town earlier. Jonas asks her if she knows where to locate the gypsy's and she
tells him that she can take him to their camp. At the convent: Adriana is
soaking her tired body in a tub of hot water. Sister Luz tells her that the
water will make her feel better. Sister Luz tells Adriana that she will go and
get medication to cure her wounds. Adriana (talking to herself) says to Renzo
who will cure the wounds which they have caused him with their lies. Would they
be able to repay him one day for all the injustice that they have committed.
She says she has to go back for him and help him get away from the island of
the condemned. Island of the condemned, at the rockpit area: Renzo is laboring
in the rockpit area and almost collapses when Renan rides up to him and whips
him on his back. Renan asks Renzo what is wrong with him and orders him to
work. At that moment, Pedro approaches Renzo who is leaning on a rock for
support and tells Renan that Renzo is exhausted. Pedro tells Renan that he has
been working more than his share of the labor and that Renzo has not been given
any food in a couple of days and that he can't continue to work under those
conditions. Renan tells Pedro that the life of the other prisoners depends on
the amount of labor Renzo produces. Renzo asks Renan if he can't continue to
work what will happen with his life. Renan tells Renzo that his life is worth
money. Renzo asks Renan if someone is paying him for his death. Renan tells
Renzo to occupy himself with his labor if he wants to remain alive. Renan tells
Renzo that if he works he might be able to sleep in his hut. Renzo regains some
of his energy back and gets up to begin his labor again and Pedro tells him no.
Renzo tells Pedro that he doesn't want to be placed into the solitary
confinement cell again because if that were to happen he couldn't work on the
raft during the night and have it finished. Pedro tells Renzo that he doesn't
even have the strength to even work at night. Renzo tells Pedro that he has to
have the strength for him, Pedro and Adriana because their liberty depended on
it to get off the island. Renzo begins his laboring.
At the gypsy camp: It is nightfall and the
gypsy's have returned to the camp from the days festivities. The gypsy's are
all gathered around a burned wagon crying. It was Manina's wagon. Rado joins
them and tells them that he has gone to look around the camp area for Manina
but she is no where to be found. A gypsy woman announces that maybe Manina
couldn't leave her wagon in time to escape the fire and died trying to get to
safety. Island of the condemned, inside the hut: Renzo is sitting down on his
cot. Pedro walks in to join him. Pedro tells Renzo that he is glad to see him
inside the hut because he was worried that Renzo may have gone to continue the
construction of the raft. Renzo tells Pedro that he will wait until it is much
later so that no one will see him. Pedro offers Renzo some fruit and tells him
to eat since he has not touched any food in days. Renzo tells Pedro the last
time he remembers being offered fruit was the time Adriana offered it to him
and he told her to eat it instead because she had not eaten in days. Pedro
tells Renzo that he has the memory of Adriana in his heart. Renzo tells Pedro
that he has her not only in his heart, but also in his blood and in his life
because she has become the most important person to him. Renzo tells Pedro that
he loves her and is going to fight to be by her side. At the convent: Adriana
is talking to herself. Adriana is eating some fruit and tells herself how could
she share her food with Renzo and her life with him. Adriana (memory flashback)
remembers when Renzo told her that destiny had united them once and destiny
will reunite them again. Adriana begins to pray to God and tells God that she
loves Renzo more than her own life and that her heart belongs to him completely
and there is nothing she can do avoid it because she will not get married to
Rodolfo Farnesio. Rodolfo Farnesio has arrived at the convent and is talking
with the Mother Superior and Friar Quintin. Rodolfo is telling them that he
knows that the late hour is not an appropriate time for visiting his fiancée
and he hopes that they will let him see her. Friar Quintin tells Rodolfo that
Mother Superior Esperanza has consented for him to visit Adriana for just this
one time only. Mother Superior Esperanza tells Rodolfo that she will have
someone notify Adriana that he has arrived to see her. Friar Quintin tells
Rodolfo that before he sees Adriana that he be understanding towards her
because of the things she has been going through. Rodolfo tells Friar Quintin
to keep his advice because he is not going to follow Friar Quintin's
recommendations since he has come to the convent to take Adriana out there and
that he will not leave the convent without her. Adriana is dressed in a nun's
habit waiting in her room when Sister Luz comes to tell her that her fiancée
has come to the convent to visit her. Adriana asks if it is Rodolfo Farnesio
and looks sad. Sister Luz tells her that he has come to see her and notices
that Adriana is not to happy to hear that he has come to the convent. Adriana
tells Sister Luz that he is a man who doesn't interest her. Sister Luz tells
Adriana that she can tell Rodolfo that he won't be able to see his fiancée
because she is not feeling well. Adriana tells Sister Luz that it won't be
necessary because she has to confront him and tell him about her feelings. At the Astolfi Castle: Humberto has arrived
at the castle to find Aya Petra waiting for him. Aya Petra tells him that it
was about time he arrived. Humberto, not in a good mood, orders Aya Petra to
tell him where Adriana is located because he doesn't know how furious Rodolfo
Farnesio is going to get once he tells him that he has had no luck in finding
his sister. Aya Petra tells Humberto that Friar Quintin notified her that
Adriana has been secluded in the convent of Las Mercedes. Humberto tells Aya
Petra that she is lying because he went to that convent in the afternoon and
his sister was not there. Humberto tells Aya Petra that he has had enough and
wants her to tell him where Adriana has been hiding. At that moment, Brasilisa
joins them and Humberto asks Aya Petra who is the woman. Near the gypsy camp:
Jonas and Sakaria have arrived near the gypsy camp when they both hear people
chanting in a prayer of mourning. Sakaria tells Jonas that they should go back
to the tavern and he tells her that he needs to find out some information about
a gypsy. At that moment, Rado walks up to them and asks Jonas what he wants and
if he can help him. Jonas asks Rado if this is the tribe of a gypsy named
Renzo. Rado tells Jonas that they are and asks him why is he looking for Renzo.
Jonas tells him that he knows where Renzo is and Rado asks why was he asking
for him. Jonas tells him that he is the foreman of the prison where Renzo is on
the island and that he has come to deliver a message to Renzo's family. Rado
questions Jonas about his concern over Renzo's fate. Rado tells Jonas that
Renzo's mother died, and that Jonas can tell him the message because he and
Renzo are like brothers. Jonas asks Rado if there is any one else he can
deliver his message too, like his woman for example. Rado tells Jonas there is
no one else and asks him to give him the message or leave.
Island of the condemned, at night: Renzo
is constructing the raft and remembers (memory flashback) when he saw Patricio
asking Adriana if she loved a man named Renzo. Renzo asks himself what secrets
does Adriana hide in her past. He asks himself what kind of relationship does
Patricio have in Adriana's life and if she met him in the tavern where she
works because he can't avoid the jealously that invades his thoughts. He can't
resist that she could be with another man that is not him. At the convent:
Adriana is waiting in a room when Rodolfo walks in and greets her. Rodolfo
tells Adriana that once again he is able to see her beauty. Adriana tells
Rodolfo to remember that he is in a convent and that he should be respectful.
Rodolfo tells Adriana that he can remedy the situation because he is going to
take her out of the convent and bring her back with him immediately. He asks
her to make a decision to leave the convent. Adriana tells him that she can't
satisfy his demands because she wishes to stay a couple of more days there.
Rodolfo tells Adriana that it will be impossible because there were a lot of
preparations to be made before the wedding. Adriana pleads with Rodolfo and
tells him to suspend their arrangement of marriage because she can't marry him.

Amor Gitano Summary for Saturday, August 12, 2000 1st
Hour: Island of the condemned: In their intent on escaping the island of the
condemned, Adriana is told my one of the jailers that Renan is asking for her.
While she is talking to the guard, Renzo, Pedro and Santiago are hiding along
the bank of the river beside the raft they have prepared to use and escape the
island. Adriana tells Renzo that she has a bad feeling about Renan's request
and Renzo assures her that everything will be all right. She kisses Renzo and
goes to the Jonas' room where she meets Jonas instead of Renan. Hidden in the
same room where they can't be seen are Rodolfo and Dino listening to Adriana's
and Jonas conversation. Jonas tells Adriana that he has found out that Renzo is
attempting to escape the island. Adriana is surprised to hear the information.
Renzo goes to the caverns to help with the sick prisoners and runs into Hutid.
She tells Renzo that she wants to apologize for her misjudging him and Adriana.
Renzo accepts her apology. Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Manina tries to find a
way to leave the castle grounds, but every time she walks toward an exit, she
encounters one of Farnesio's guards. Humberto arrives at the castle demanding
to talk to Rodolfo and he is told that the Count is not around. Island of the
condemned: Jonas is questioning Adriana about Renzo planning to escape the
island and she denies the information. Jonas tells her that he knows that Renzo
has built a raft near the river. Jonas tells Adriana that Renzo won't escape
now and that there is no mercy for attempting to escape. Jonas tells Adriana
when a prisoner tries an escape attempt they deserve a bullet in the back.
Adriana pleads to Jonas that she encouraged Renzo to build the raft to escape
and that she should deserve the bullet. At that moment Rodolfo makes his
presence known and tells Adriana that she will return back with him. He is
surprised to find out that during all this time, she has been hiding on the
island of the condemned and not in the convent like everyone told him. Jonas is
alarmed to figure out that Luna and Adriana happen to be the same person and
that she is engaged to marry Rodolfo. Dino tells Jonas that Adriana is the
Marquesa de Astolfi and a very prominent figure among the aristocratic circles
of Villa Florencia. Adriana tells Rodolfo that he is to blame for her stay on
the island of the condemned. Rodolfo can't believe that she did it to protect
her coward brother. She tells Rodolfo that she came to the island to try to
rectify the damage done to an innocent man. He asks if that man is Renzo the
gypsy. Adriana, in a menacing tone of voice, tells Rodolfo now that he knows
the truth, she will speak to high authorities and tell them that Renzo was
condemned for a crime he didn't commit and that in fact it was her brother who
killed Daniel Discarpia. Everyone will have to live up to the consequences of
this error. Inside the caverns: Renzo runs into Renan and asks him where is
Adriana. Renan tells Renzo that Jonas returned to the island and asked for her.
Renan tells Renzo that he is to go back to the rock pit to work and wants to
know where Pedro is because he has missed several days of not completing his
work. Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Manina is inside trying to figure out how she
can leave the castle. All the exits of the castle are heavily guarded. She
doesn't want anybody to know her motives and if she is found out her plans to
help Renzo would be ruined. Island of the condemned: Renzo runs back to the
riverbank where Pedro and Santiago are waiting for him and Adriana. Pedro asks
Renzo where Adriana is and he tells him that Jonas returned to the island.
Renzo is starting to think that things are getting complicated and tells Pedro
that they should return to the rockpit and work like if nothing was going on.
Jonas' room: Rodolfo is telling Adriana
that she should abandon all her hope and stop crying. Rodolfo tells Adriana
that she won't be able to help Renzo with his conviction. Jonas informs them
that since he has been convicted, he will have to serve his time. Adriana yells
out that it is an injustice and Rodolfo tells her that she will have to return
with him. Adriana tells Rodolfo that she will never go back with him and
informs him that if Renzo is not set free, she will stay with him forever.
Rodolfo tells Adriana that apparently she has great fondness for the gypsy.
Adriana admits to Rodolfo that she loves Renzo and that no one can impede her
from loving him. Rodolfo tells her that because of her love for Renzo, she will
have to return with him if she wants to save his life. Jonas confirms that
since Renzo tried to escape, his life is not worth anything. Rodolfo reiterates
to Jonas if it is true that prisoners who try to escape are shot in the back.
Adriana is disgusted with Rodolfo's accusations. He tells her that maybe they
can reach an agreement. The condition is that Renzo will continue to live, if
she agrees to return to Villa Florencia with him. If she doesn't agree, Renzo will
be found dead from a bullet in his back. Adriana is left to ponder a decision.
She tells Rodolfo that even though she gave her word of matrimony she didn't
love him and her heart was free, now that she has found love, her heart belongs
to Renzo. Rodolfo can't believe that Adriana, an aristocrat, has fallen in love
with a simple gypsy. She tells him that Renzo is more of a man than Rodolfo,
Dino and Jonas. Rodolfo just laughs. Rodolfo tells Jonas in a joking manner
that he is to whip Renzo before he kills him. At the rockpit: Renzo tells Renan
that he will work his part of the labor and make up for lost hours. He tells
Renan that he needs to find Adriana. Renan tells him that he doesn't have
permission to leave. Renzo tries to leave and a jailer whips him. Pedro comes
to his aid and is also whipped by Renan. Astolfi castle: Isa is wondering where
Adriana is hiding and why she is avoiding her marriage to Rodolfo Farnesio. Isa
believes that if she tells Rodolfo the truth that Adriana has escaped the
convent, maybe he will see her more favorably. Humberto joins her and they
kiss. Isa asks Humberto if they can visit Rodolfo and inquire indiscreetly if
Rodolfo knows anything about Adriana's disappearance. Humberto tells Isa it is
none of her business. Humberto goes to his room and looking at himself in the
mirror asks where Adriana has disappeared to.
Island
of the condemned: Rodolfo tells Adriana that with her tears she won't convince
him. He tells her that she has only one choice, either she leaves with him and join
him in marriage like she agreed to or Renzo is killed. Adriana kneels before
Rodolfo begging him to save Renzo's life and take hers. Rodolfo tells Adriana
to make a decision and respond to him. When Adriana just stares at him, he
orders Jonas to go kill Renzo. Jonas walks over to his closet to get a gun and
Adriana gets up and goes after him begging Jonas not to kill Renzo. Rodolfo
asks Adriana her decision and she tells him that she will go back with him if
he promises not to harm Renzo. Rodolfo tells Adriana that he gives her his word
that he nor Jonas will harm Renzo. Upon hearing his promise, Adriana starts to
leave when Dino stops her. Adriana tells Rodolfo that she wants to tell Renzo
why she is leaving the island and for what reason. Rodolfo tells Adriana that
Renzo will live, but he will never find out what happened. Rodolfo orders Dino
to escort Adriana to the waiting boat. Adriana struggles as she is being taking
away.
At the rockpit: Renzo and Santiago go to
help Pedro, who is feeling weak. Renan tells them that the old man looks sick
and that he may have the sickness of the black fever. Renan orders that Renzo
take him to the solitary confinement cell to isolate him from the other
prisoners. Astrid de Mariner's castle: Astrid is entertaining her visitor
Orlando, he has taken a liking to the Countess. Astolfi castle: Aya Petra is in
the kitchen talking with Zokka. She is worried about Zokka's depressing state
of mind. Zokka tells Aya Petra that she is going through a bad time. Aya Petra
asks Zokka who was the degenerate who sexually assaulted her. She asks if it
was Claudio, Humberto's friend. Zokka tells Aya Petra that he didn't do
anything to her. She tells Aya Petra that it was a very powerful and terrible
man, Count Rodolfo Farnesio. Isa sees Patricio and orders him to prepare a
carriage because she wants to go for a pleasure ride. Patricio tells her that
he can't fulfill her request. She wants to know why and he tells her that the
Marquis Humberto has ordered that she not leave the castle. Island of the
condemned: On the beach, Adriana is being escorted by Dino towards the awaiting
boats. Up on the hill, Hutid is watching how Adriana is being led by a
hunchback. Jonas asks Rodolfo if his promise not to harm Renzo was a lie.
Rodolfo tells him that he is free to kill the gypsy. Jonas reminds Rodolfo how
much would it be worth killing the gypsy. Rodolfo tells Jonas that he has
already paid him and Jonas tells him that things have changed. Jonas tells
Rodolfo that now he knows who Rodolfo is, that Luna and Adriana are the same
person and that she is the Marquesa de Astolfi, that Renzo didn't kill anyone,
and that her brother Humberto is the real killer of Daniel Discarpia. Rodolfo
gets enraged at Jonas. He reminds Jonas that they had an agreement which Jonas
now wants to change. Adriana is crying as she waits inside the boat. Jonas
tells Rodolfo that Renzo's head has a different price and if Rodolfo doesn't
like the new agreement, then everything is off. Jonas tells Rodolfo that if
Renzo is not killed, Rodolfo can fulfill the promise he made to Adriana.
Rodolfo gives Jonas a bag of coins. He orders Jonas to kill Renzo, but before
he does, Jonas is to tell Renzo that his woman Luna was a spy and when the
escape attempt was discovered she decided to leave the island. Jonas tells
Rodolfo that he sure knows how to torture people and that he would make a great
foreman at the prison. Rodolfo leaves and Jonas gets upset for the treatment
received from Rodolfo. On the beach of Villa Florencia: The boat arrives on the
beach carrying Rodolfo, Dino and a crying Adriana. Rodolfo tells Adriana that
the gypsy belongs where he is at and that her future is with him by his side.
Adriana tells him that since he separated her from Renzo she will die from her
suffering. Rodolfo finds it amusing and caresses Adriana with a kiss on her
neck. He tells her that she will forget her craziness of her time spent of the
island of the condemned. Rodolfo tells Adriana that she will be his and she
yells at him that she will never be his. Rodolfo tells her that he will make
her happy and she tells him that she will always hate him. Island of the
condemned: Renan goes to see Renzo, who is caring for Pedro, in the solitary
confinement cell. Renan orders Renzo that he is to stay in the cell caring for
the other sick prisoners just in case the sickness they have is the black
fever. Renan tells him that he won't take the risk of having others infected by
the sickness. Renzo orders Santiago to leave the cell, he hesitates then he
leaves. Renzo wonders where Adriana is and prays for her safety. On the beach
of Villa Florencia: Rodolfo tells Adriana that if she prefers to live in hell
then so be it. Adriana kneels on the sand and begs Rodolfo to have compassion
towards her and let her return to the island of the condemned to be with Renzo.
Rodolfo mocks Adriana's request for compassion and tells her that she will
marry him whether she likes it or not. Adriana feels weak and faints into the
arms of Dino. Rodolfo calls her name and sees that she has fainted. Dino,
jokingly, tells Rodolfo that maybe she is dead from love. Rodolfo doesn't like
the joke and tells Dino that Adriana de Astolfi will be his wife even if he has
to rip her heart out in order for her to forget her gypsy love. Astolfi castle:
Isa greets Friar Quintin and tells him that she is a cousin of Adriana. He
wants to know what she wants. Isa tells him that since he is Adriana's
confessor, maybe he can give her any information about her cousin Adriana. She
tells Friar Quintin that Humberto is desperate to find Adriana ever since her
disappearance from the convent. She tells him that her main concern is the
welfare of her cousins. Island of the condemned: Renan tells Jonas that finally
he has the motive to kill Renzo (his attempt to escape the island). Renan tells
Jonas that until he decides to kill him, Renzo has been ordered to stay with
the sick prisoners who may have the black fever. Renan tells Jonas that maybe
Renzo will get infected with the black fever and die without Jonas having to
kill him. They celebrate with a drink. Santiago is talking with Hutid and
telling her that Renzo has been isolated in a cell with the other sick
prisoners. Hutid tells Santiago that at least Adriana was able to avoid the
same fate, because she left the island accompanied by a hunchback. Rodolfo
Farnesio's castle: Rodolfo has taken an unconscious Adriana to his castle. He
orders his servants to find salts to try to awaken her. Astolfi castle: Dino
arrives in a carriage to the castle when he is greeted by Isa. Isa asks Dino
why he has arrived in Rodolfo Farnesio's carriage. Dino tells her that he has
an important message for the Marquis de Astolfi. Isa asks Dino what is the
message. Dino tells her that Humberto's sister has returned and that she is at
his master's castle. Isa gets upset with Dino because he promised to inform her
about Adriana's whereabouts and now he has told her that Adriana is at
Farnesio's castle. Isa tells Dino that he has failed her and threatens to end
their friendship.
Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Manina asks
if Rodolfo Farnesio has returned to the castle and is told that he has returned
with his fiancée who is feeling ill. Manina realizes that Rodolfo has returned
from the island of the condemned and wonders if he caused Renzo any harm. Astolfi castle: Isa tells Humberto that
Adriana has returned and that she is with Rodolfo in his castle. Humberto is
relieved and tells Isa that finally he can stop worrying about his predicament
with Rodolfo Farnesio. He tells Isa that once Adriana and Rodolfo are married,
he will be free from the threat of having to go to the island of the condemned.
Isa tells him not to celebrate his victory because she can accuse him of the
murder of Daniel Discarpia because she saw when he killed him. Isa is worried
to lose everything she has gained for fear of Adriana's return. Humberto tells
Isa that he will talk with Adriana and he is sure Adriana will not protest
Isa's stay in the castle. Island of the condemned: Jonas goes to see Renzo and
tells him that his plans have been discovered. Renzo wants to know why he has
been locked up. Jonas tells him that he knows about the raft in which he was
going to use to escape. Renzo asks Jonas where Adriana is because he is going
to look for her. Renzo threatens Jonas by telling him that if he so much as
touched a hair on Adriana he would kill him. As Renzo tries to leave, Jonas
stops him by pointing a knife in his direction. Jonas tells Renzo that if he is
going to look for Adriana he will have to search for her somewhere else. Jonas
tells Renzo that Adriana has left the island of the condemned for good. Renzo
asks Jonas what does he mean. Renzo tells Jonas that she couldn't have left the
island. Jonas tells him that Adriana was very smart in winning his affections
and finding out if he was trying to attempt an escape and she succeeded. Renzo
tells Jonas that he is lying and tries to attack him. Jonas tells Renzo that he
was too trusting to a woman such as Adriana. Renzo is mad and tells Jonas that
Adriana isn't like that. Renzo tries to attack Jonas again and this time a
jailer points a gun at Renzo. Jonas tells Renzo that if he makes another move,
he will order to shoot him in the heart. Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Adriana is
laying down on Rodolfo's bed unconscious. Rodolfo is kneeling by the bed

Rodolfo and Humberto that she married Renzo under gypsy law and from the
ceremony they joined as one in a blood ceremony. She confesses that she loves
Renzo and became his woman. Upon hearing the news that Adriana gave herself to
Renzo out of love, Rodolfo gets enraged and tries to attack Adriana. Humberto
is forced to hold him back. He yells to Adriana asking her how could she have
given herself to a gypsy. Rodolfo tells Adriana that she was stupid in what she
did. Adriana tells him that love is not stupid. Adriana recalls the night she
and Renzo were married and the night they spent together. She tells them that
night she became a gypsy just like Renzo. Humberto tells Adriana she is crazy
and that she is the one who has always been proud of their heritage. Humberto
doesn't understand why Adriana has tainted their family name. Adriana tells
Humberto that he doesn't know what love is all about. Rodolfo tells Adriana
that her night of craziness in becoming the wife of a gypsy has changed, now
she is the same person she was before ever going to the island of the
condemned. Rodolfo tells Adriana that as the Marquesa de Astofli she will
become the wife of Count Rodolfo Farnesio. Adriana tells Rodolfo that even
though she has confessed to him that she belongs to another man he is willing
to still marry her. She asks him if he doesn't care about ruining his
prestigious name and honor. Rodolfo tells Adriana that he is only interested in
marrying her to show her off amongst his friends of nobility and it will be
that way. He tells her that her secret will stay buried with Renzo the gypsy on
the island of the condemned. Adriana yells to Rodolfo that one day Renzo will
come for her to claim her as his wife because she belongs to him. Rodolfo grabs

being accompanied by a hunchback, leave the island. Astolfi castle: Patricio
and Aya Petra are in the kitchen talking. Aya Petra tells Patricio that Isa
knows that Adriana has left the convent because Humberto told her. She tells
him that Isa has requested to move into another bedroom next to Adriana's and
she finds the request rather disturbing since Isa has been occupying Adriana's
room ever since Humberto brought her to the castle to live with him. She is
confused and wonders if Isa knows that Adriana is returning soon. Rodolfo
Farnesio's castle: Adriana, kneeling and crying before Rodolfo, asks him to
repeat the information he just told her about Renzo. She reminds him that he
promised not to harm Renzo if she left the island with him. Rodolfo tells her
that she was the one who promised to marry him in order to save the life of
Renzo. Rodolfo tells her that if she doesn't fulfill her promise, he will send
word to Jonas to have Renzo killed. Adriana begs mercy for Renzo, but Rodolfo
tells her that she knows the price she will have to pay. Humberto goes to grab
Adriana from the floor and tells her an Astolfi never begs for the life of a
gypsy. She pleads mercy again and Humberto tells her that she is not and never
will be a gypsy. Rodolfo tells her that if Luna values the life of her gypsy
and the Marquesa de Astolfi values the life of her brother then she will have
to pay. Rodolfo tells her that now she belongs to him and that she should never
forget it. Adriana thinks about a memory in which she and Renzo are happy
together and tells herself that it will be her liberty for his life. When she
begins to realize that she will have to give up the love she has for Renzo,
Adriana once again faints into the arms of Humberto and becomes unconscious.
Humberto carries her over to the bed and checks on her. Rodolfo tells him that
Dino has gone for the Doctor. Humberto asks Rodolfo if Adriana is dying.
Rodolfo assures him that Adriana will live and that she will be his. Humberto
sits on the bed holding Adriana in his arms and tells Rodolfo that she has not
awaken ever since she became unconscious and what could he do to help her.

the Astolfi castle. He tells him what when the Doctor arrives at his castle he
will tell the Doctor that Dino made a mistake and that Adriana is at her own castle
instead. Astolfi castle: Zokka, Patricio and Aya Petra are in the kitchen.

who committed such a violation. Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Manina is anxious in

to gain his strength back so he can look for Adriana. Renzo drifts in and out

can't tell Renzo that Adriana has left the island. Renzo falls asleep. Rodolfo

carriage in which Dino has brought the Doctor. The Doctor tells Rodolfo that
Dino went to get him because the Marquesa de Astofli fell ill and needed to be
seen. Rodolfo affirms to the Doctor that in fact Adriana is ill and if he went
to see her at her castle. The Doctor tells Rodolfo that he was under the
impression that she was at Rodolfo's castle. Rodolfo tells him that it was
possible Dino got his orders wrong. Rodolfo tells the Doctor that Adriana is at
her castle and that he will accompany him to visit her there. Rodolfo scolds
Dino for his stupidity and orders the carriage to go to the Astolfi castle.

before she leaves the island for good. Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Dino is in
the study wondering where could the documents which contain the last will and
testament of Count Clemente Farnesio be. He stares at the bookcase and thinks
that maybe Rodolfo didn't look very good for it. At that moment Dino is
interrupted by a knock on the door. Manina enters and tells Dino that the
Countess Astrid de Mariner has arrived to visit the count. Dino orders Manina to
tell the Countess he will attend her and when Manina leaves he tells himself
that he doesn't trust Manina. Island of the condemned: Pedro is tending to
Renzo's wounds. Renzo is telling Pedro that he will regain his strength because
he needs to know what has happened to Adriana. Renzo tells Pedro what Jonas
told him about Adriana betraying him. Pedro tells Renzo that he should know the
truth that Adriana is not on the island. Renzo tells Pedro that he can't
believe that Adriana has deceived him and that she couldn't fake her love for
him and marry him. Renzo tells Pedro that he is having a hard time believing
that she came to the island only to deceive him. Pedro tells Renzo that it
could be possible that she was ordered by someone to do what she did. Pedro asks
Renzo who has so much interest in wanting to hurt him. Renzo, under heavy pain,
tells Pedro that he only wants to know where she is and why did she want to do
him harm. Pedro tells him that he needs to calm down and that sooner or later
the truth will be known. Renzo, crying in pain, tells Pedro that he needs to
know the truth if Adriana is a saint or a devil. Jonas's room: Jonas is
counting the coins he was given by Rodolfo when Hutid enters his room. He wants
to know what she wants and she tells him that she is interested to know when
the next ship will arrive to return back to Villa Florencia. She tells him that
her husband has died and she doesn't need to stay on the island any longer.
Rodolfo Farnesio's castle: Astrid de Mariner is told by Dino that Adriana has
finally left the convent and returned to her castle. She is surprised to hear
the news. Dino tells Astrid that Adriana became ill and Rodolfo didn't want to
keep her in the convent any longer. Astrid figures out that since Rodolfo and
Adriana never attended her dinner party, the illness must be very serious.
Enroute to the Astolfi castle: While riding towards the Astolfi castle, Rodolfo
tells the Doctor a story as to how Adriana became ill. He tells the Doctor that
Adriana got sick from living and working under such harsh conditions while she
was secluded in the convent. Rodolfo tells him he took her away from the place
and brought her home. The Doctor tells Rodolfo that if Adriana had a difficult
time while she stayed at the convent, then her illness could be very serious.
The Doctor tells him that maybe he will have to postpone his wedding. Rodolfo
tells him that the most important thing is to have his fiancée recover from her
illness. He thinks and tells himself that Renzo the gypsy will never get her
back. Astolfi castle: Humberto has laid Adriana's unconscious body on her bed
and orders Aya Petra to change her out of the filthy clothing into new ones.
Aya Petra asks Humberto where did they find her and why has she become ill. Aya
Petra touches Adriana's forehead and notices that Adriana has a fever. Humberto
orders Aya Petra to hurry up and change her before the Doctor arrives. He
leaves Adriana's room not answering any of her questions. Aya Petra kisses
Adriana's forehead and notices a charm she is carrying around her neck. Aya
Petra looks at it and notices it is a gypsy amulet. She takes it off from
Adriana's neck and hides it underneath her clothing so no one will see it.
Island of the condemned: Pedro continues to try to cure Renzo's wounds and
tells him that he can't stop the bleeding. Pedro tells Renzo that Jonas's fury
has left him badly scarred, but it was better than receiving a bullet in the
back. Renzo, who is in agony over the pain, tells Pedro that he would have
preferred it because now he has to live with the doubt that Adriana has been
the cause of all his disgraces. Renzo asks Pedro if he is right about Adriana
abandoning the island. Pedro tells a crying Renzo that Santiago told him that
they saw her leave the island on a boat accompanied by a hunchback. Renzo tells
Pedro that it must be the same man who accused him of committing the crime.
Renzo, in pain and angry, asks Pedro how Adriana could have left the island
with the hunchback. Pedro tells Renzo that maybe Jonas was right and that
Adriana did come to the island to secure his death. Renzo tells Pedro that he
can't believe it. Crying, Renzo tells Pedro that Adriana loves him and wouldn't
do anything to hurt him. Renzo, who has calmed down, recalls the night he and
Adriana were married and tells Pedro that it is impossible to believe that she
has betrayed him. He asks Pedro why did Adriana leave the island. Pedro tells
Renzo that he has to stop torturing himself with all the information he now
knows and that if he continues he will just confuse himself more about what
could be the truth. Renzo, who has started to show signs of hatred, tells Pedro
that Adriana could be guilty since she left with the man who accused him of
murder. Renzo tells Pedro that if this is true, then Adriana did betray him and
she faked her love for him. Renzo asks Pedro why did Adriana do what she did.
Renzo's wounds continue to bleed and Pedro tells him that he needs to be cured.
Renzo, in a hatred tone, tells Pedro that he doesn't care if he bleeds because
now he heart is full of hate and he now holds a grudge against Adriana. He
tells Pedro that she better hope he never gets off the island and if he does
and she crosses his path again he doesn't know what he will do. Astolfi castle:

once her health has improved. Humberto tells Isa to stay clear from Adriana's
presence. Brasilisa knocks and enters the room to inform Humberto that Rodolfo

she doesn't have the intentions of leaving the castle because she needs the
work and will return to her labor. Astolfi castle: Isa is talking with Rodolfo
and telling him that she hopes Adriana's illness is not serious. She tells him
that if Adriana hadn't decided to seclude herself in the convent for such a
long time, her health would be much better. Rodolfo agrees with Isa. Isa asks
Rodolfo how did he find out about her illness and did the nuns notify him. He
tells her that it isn't important how he found out. He tells Isa that his
concern was that she leave the convent and when she is better they will be
married. Humberto asks the Doctor if Adriana's illness is really serious. The
Doctor tells him that apparently Adriana is very sick. Aya Petra is worried

of all Villa Florencia. He tells Isa that Adriana is a very beautiful woman.

woman in Villa Florencia. He agrees with her, but says that she is the one he
wants. Isa asks him if he would consider changing his mind and he tells her
that he wouldn't.
Astrid de Mariner's room: Astrid and
Violeta are talking and Astrid is telling her that she is going to visit the
Astolfi castle to see how Adriana is feeling. Violeta asks her if she is going
for that reason or to also see Rodolfo Farnesio. Astrid tells her that she is
going for both reasons and that she hopes to hear the news that Adriana will
not recover from her illness and not be able to make it to the alter to get
married. Astolfi castle: The Doctor has calmed Adriana down and tells Humberto
that her illness is very serious. Humberto asks him what is wrong with his
sister and if his sister is going to die. The Doctor asks Humberto to accompany

convent. Rodolfo tells Friar Quintin that the Friar knew that Adriana was on
the island and he was helping her. Rodolfo threatens Friar Quintin that he will
speak with higher religious authorities and request the Friar be transferred to

Adriana she was met by Humberto and the Doctor who were on their way to see
him. Rodolfo asks the Doctor about Adriana's health and if she has awaken from
her unconsciousness. The Doctor tells Rodolfo that Adriana has not had any
change in her state of illness. Rodolfo tells Friar Quintin that since Adriana

opportunity and leaves. Humberto tells Rodolfo that the Doctor has some
important information about Adriana's health. The Doctor tells Rodolfo,
Humberto and Isa that Adriana is very ill. Isa asks if Adriana is dying.

any of it. Friar Quintin asks Adriana what is wrong. Adriana, who is struggling
with her fever, asks Friar Quintin for his help. She tells Friar Quintin that
someone has to tell her if he is alright, that no harm has come to him. Aya

doesn't know. Aya Petra tells Adriana to calm down. Friar Quintin thinks that

to escape the island. Pedro tells him that he needs to leave the island because

the man he faced and the man whom his mother feared, an aristocrat who is cruel.

her. Rodolfo wants to know also. The Doctor asks them if Adriana received a
very bad impression or a terrible emotion. Rodolfo tells the Doctor Adriana did

have given her terrible suffering some importance. Rodolfo tells him that her
suffering is not important but her health is. The Doctor tells them that

disastrous consequence or irreversible damages. Upon hearing the news, Isa's
face expresses a grin and Humberto's face is somber. Island of the condemned:

and that his mother feared the Count. Pedro asks him if he knows of anyone at
the castle who would want to cause him harm. Renzo tells him that his mother
has never wanted to speak of it. Pedro tells him that maybe she was hiding a
secret that he doesn't know. Renzo tells Pedro that once he gets off the island

USA 9/16/00. Subject: Summary (not complete
but...) and questions. Author: Natasha Date: 09-19-2000 22:37 so basically I
missed the show for the last few weeks and I am kind of confused. MY questions
are Did Renzo and Adriana see each other yet? How did Renzo find out who Luna
really is? and how the hell did he get rich? How is Countess Marnier related to
Pedro? As for summary, basically what happens is that Adriana is pregnant and
Farnesio is really mad. Renzo remembers Adriana but he is also mad at her.
(well duh!). HE gets a flashback of Adriana and Farnesio getting married, but
may be that was just his imagination.Zokka knows who Renzo really is. So then
Adriana gives birth and is happy. Meanwhile Renzo talks with Isa and she is
trying hard to get to him and he offers her to be friends, I dont know how
sincere he was though. THen Renzo takes out his violin and starts playing and
Adriana hears him and her memory (that apparently she somehow lost) returns to
her. She desides to give her child to Isa and to go to Island to tell Renzo
that he is a father. However her nurse does not trust ISa and she gives the
child to Renzo's mom, who to hide it, brings it into a rich house. And of
course it is Renzo's house. Adriana escapes the Farneseio castle by going in
the same carriage as Petro only somehow they manage not to see each other. she
gets to the island and there Renan and crew tell her that Renzo died. They put
her and her guard in jail, but Farnesio bails them out. That is as far I saw.
Cant wait till next week. Bernardo tells Renzo and Pedro about
the night that a gypsy, Nicolo?, came to the castle with a letter for Clemente
and how Rodolfo took it and the gypsy was never seen again. Adriana tells
Rodolfo that she remembers.
USA, 9/23/00.
Adriana tells Rodolfo that she’s regained her memory. Rodolfo promises not to
hurt the baby if, in public, Adriana plays the devoted wife. She tells Isa that
Renzo is dead. Isa asks where the baby is but Adriana doesn’t say. She asks
Humberto to convince Rodolfo to release Patricio and he does. Rodolfo tells
Dino to watch Adriana and discover where the baby is. Zokka and Renzo return to
the gypsies and Renzo tells his story. Rodolfo asks Astrid to seduce the Conde
(Renzo). Adriana visits her baby. Patricio promises to protect it. Renzo
returns to the castle. Rodolfo holds a party and Adriana comes face to face
with the Conde (Renzo) and calls him Renzo. He, and Rodolfo, say she is
mistaken and she apologizes. Rodolfo tells Adriana to be nice to the Conde.
Humberto is frightened when he sees the Conde because he recognizes the gypsy.
Renzo tells Pedro later how hard it was to control himself. Martin, Maria’s
father, tells Isa he must confess his sin of impersonating a priest but she
convinces him to wait because of the harm it will do to his daughter Maria who
depends on him. Humberto tells Adriana he is sure that the Conde is Renzo.
USA, 9/30/00.
Adriana tells Humberto that Renzo will have a scar on his wrist. Rodolfo tells
Isa he must know where the baby is. Dino sees Rodolfo kiss Isa. Isa tells
Isolde that she’s tired of Humberto. Adriana and Rodolfo, Isa and Humberto,
Conde and Astrid go hunting. Rodolfo puts a rifle in Adriana’s arm and aims it
for her, Isa knocks the gun so it just misses Astrid. Later, Isa tells Renzo
that Adriana was trying to kill him and only her fast action prevented it.
Astrid asks Isa why she did it; for a good reason answers Isa. Isa tells Pedro
that Adriana hates her because of her humble origins. Adriana confronts the
Conde and asks him to show her his wrist but they are interrupted. Both Pedro
and Renzo believe that Isa is an innocent. Pedro talks with a drunk Isolde
about the past and learns that Astrid has a daughter whom she (Isolde) raised
in a tavern. Pedro suspects that the child is Isa and is the daughter of his
friend Maximiliano. Humberto tells Adriana he wants to see the baby. Adriana
dresses as a man to slip out and see her baby but she is followed by Humberto.
Adriana tells Manina that the Conde reminds her of Renzo.
USA, 10/7/00. Author: valeria Date: 10-07-2000 22:17 Here's the summary for today:
Renzo has a customes party in his castle and takes advantage of this
opportunity to go to Fernesio's castle and sneak into the secret aisle where he
suspects his father died. Indeed, he
finds his body there and Clemente Fernesio's as well. He wonders what reasons Rodolfo must have had to kill
Clemente. Then he goes back to his
castle disguised as a gypsy with Sokka and the other gypsy (I don't remember
his name) When Adriana sees him, she
runs to another room and Renzo follows her.
She tells him that she knows that he is Renzo, first he denies it but
finally he admits it He does not
believe her words and tells her he will avenge all the ones who caused his
mother death. Humberto tells Isa where
the baby is hiding, Dino also knows it and goes to the place to rob him, but
Manina saw him and run away. Again,
thanks a lot for taking the time to reply to me. Valeria. Isa tells Dino she can depend only on him.
Humberto swears that he isn’t spying for Rodolfo (and had told Rodolfo he
wouldn’t hurt the child who is his nephew). Martín tells Renzo that Maria is
safe in a convent, that if something happens to him he should take care of her.
During the masked ball, Renzo finds the secret passage and the skeleton of the
gypsy (identified by a medallion) and the skeleton of Clemente (also identified
by a medallion). His scream is heard by the kitchen staff. During the ball, Isa
asks Humberto where the baby is and he tells her; Dino overhears. Renzo
confronts Adriana in a room and confesses the truth; he accuses her of
betrayal, lying and hypocrisy and doesn’t give her a chance to explain. When
Rodolfo asks Adriana whom she was with, Humberto enters and says it was him.
Zokka is recognized by ?. Dino tells Rodolfo he knows where the baby is.
Adriana is afraid for her baby. Manina hears Dino coming and runs away. Dino,
and later Patricio, find Manina and the baby gone. Dino tells Rodolfo and Isa.
Adriana arrives and finds Manina and her baby gone.
USA, 10/14/00.
Patricio looks for child. Pedro talks with Isolde and is convinced that the
innocent Isa is the daughter of his friend Maximiliano and Astrid. Manina goes
to the Conde’s for safety but neither Renzo nor Pedro see her. Renzo meets
Humberto on the cliff and the latter tries to convince Renzo he is wrong about
Adriana but doesn’t succeed. Isa is watching and talks to Humberto, confesses
that she hates his sister and him. They fight; Dino jumps down to safe Isa and
ends up killing Humberto. Renzo finds Adriana fallen off her horse but won’t
help her; his words later make her believe he killed Humberto. A funeral is
held. At the funeral, Adriana accuses Renzo of killing Humberto.[I seemed to
have missed the second hour]
Subject: Quick
Summary for Amor Gitano 10-14-00 Author: Margie Date: 10-21-2000 01:44 Hi Soapfans, This is a quick summation of the episodes for
Amor Gitano (10-14-00). Part I: Adriana goes to her summer house to find her
son missing and enlists the aid of Patricio to help her find Manina and little
Pedro. Adriana is worried because now that her son is missing, her child is in
grave danger if Rodolfo finds him. Adriana wanted to take little Pedro to Renzo
to seek his protection for their child. Pedro visits Isolda at the Tavern and
in conversations with her discovers the truth about Astrid de Marnier. Isolda
tells Pedro that Isa Valenti is the daughter Astrid abandoned many years ago.
Rodolfo, Isa and Dino discuss the bad luck of not finding Adriana's son.
Rodolfo tells them he needs to find the child and will use Patricio to lead him
to the child. Manina and little Pedro show up at the Minelli castle to seek
refuge and hide from Rodolfo. Humberto made an appointment with Count Minelli
(Renzo) and has Renzo meet him at the top of a cliff overseeing the ocean.
Humberto tells Renzo that Adriana is innocent of all accusations and he and
Rodolfo are the real culprits. Humberto tells Renzo that Adriana married
Rodolfo to save him from being sent to prison and that the death of Count
Discarpia was an accident. Renzo, who is so full of hate and can't see or hear
straight, tells Humberto that he doesn't believe him and that he will destroy
him, Adriana and Rodolfo for all the pain that he has suffered. Renzo tells
Humberto that he will seek revenge against them for all that they have done to
him. Isa also goes to the cliffsides to see whom Humberto was going to meet.
She sees Humberto talking with Renzo. Adriana, looking for her son and Manina,
falls off her horse in the middle of the forrest. Rodolfo orders that a horse
be prepared for him because he wants to find Adriana. Manina asks Bernal to
help her protect her grandchild at all costs because she fears for the childs
safety. Renzo leaves Humberto standing alone near the cliffside. Pedro finally realizes that Isa Valenti
is Astrid's daughter and wants to help her because he thinks that Isa is the
daughter of his good friend Maximilliano. Pedro starts to feel ill. Pedro finds the message sent by
Humberto to meet Renzo. Isa tells Humberto that his plan to get money from
Renzo failed.
Humberto asks Isa to help him tell Renzo that Adriana still loves him and that
they have a child. Isa tells Humberto that she hates Adriana and won't help him. Isa also tells
Humberto that she hates him too. Isa won't help Humberto tell Renzo the
information because she is interested in him. Adriana screams for help and
Renzo having left Humberto a few minutes before rides up to her. Humberto
finally realizes that Isa was using him and won't permit her to make a fool of
him. Isa screams and Dino comes to her rescue. Dino and Humberto fight and in
the process Dino manages
to push Humberto over the cliffside. Humberto falls to his death below. Isa
stands nearby witnessing the incident. Dino tells Isa that Humberto will never
hurt her again. Isa is relieved. Adriana tells Renzo that she is lost and needs
his help. Renzo tells her that he won't do anything to help her. Renzo tells
Adriana that he just came from meeting one of his enemies near the cliffside.
Adriana begs him to listen to her and then he leaves. Rodolfo, while looking
for Adriana, sees Humberto's dead body at the bottom of the cliff by the ocean.
Two of Count Minelli's guards
find Adriana and take her back to the Farnesio castle. Pedro asks Renzo why he
went to meet with Humberto alone. Pedro tells him that he was worried because
it could have been a trap. Renzo tells him that his meeting with Humberto did
not go like he wanted. Isa, thinking to herself, realizes that now things are
looking better with Humberto's death. She knows her secret of playing the
Astolfi's cousin will not be revealed. She tells herself that she will pretend
to mourn the death of Humberto. Dino asks Rodolfo how did Humberto die and
Rodolfo tells him that it has happened in an inopportune time. Adriana returns
to the Farnesio castle. Adriana tells Rodolfo that she is feeling worried and
would like to retire for the evening. Rodolfo thinks that Adriana knows about
Humberto's death. Adriana wants to know what Rodolfo is talking about and asks
him to tell her. Rodolfo tells her that he found Humberto's dead body near the
rocks of the cliffside and tells her that her brother was killed. Adriana takes
the news very hard and remembers that Renzo told her that he just finished meeting
his enemy near the cliffside. Adriana starts to cry and can't believe that her
brother is dead. Bernal tells Renzo and Pedro that they just received news that
Humberto de Astolfi had died. Renzo can't believe it. Adriana tells Aya Petra
that Humberto was killed by the man who hates him very much. Adriana grieves
over her brother's death. Renzo tells Pedro that when he and Humberto met at
the cliffside, Humberto was very much alive. Renzo knows that Humberto's death
will effect Adriana very much, but his hatred impedes him from caring about
her. Renzo goes to the Astolfi castle to pay his respects at Humberto's funeral
services. Renzo tells himself that Humberto has paid for all the crimes he did.
Bernal helps Pedro get in bed so he can get rest. Isa tells Adriana that she
was waiting for Humberto at the Astolfi castle when she was told of Humberto's
accident. Adriana tells Isa that it has come as a shock to all that Humberto
was killed and that the killer is still free. Adriana asks Isa if Humberto had
any enemies and she tells her that she found out Humberto had a meeting with someone at the
cliffside. Pedro realizes that his health is failing rapidly. He knows that he
needs to get a hold of Maximilliano's fortune so that he can give it to Maximilliano's daughter
Isa but has to be careful that Astrid doesn't try to impede Isa from getting
it. Rodolfo greets Count Minelli (Renzo) and tells him that with Humberto dead,
he is Adriana's only support and family. Manina is looking forward to meeting
Count Minelli (Renzo) to thank him for his hospitability but Bernal tells her
that he had to leave because the Marquis de Astolfi had died. Manina realizes
that Adriana must be mourning her brother's death and that she must also be
worried over her son's whereabouts. Petra sees Adriana trembling from her pain
and asks her if something is wrong. Adriana tells her nothing. Petra tells
Adriana that she needs to be strong so that she won't get sick because her son
needs her. Adriana tells Petra that she doesn't know where her son is because
both Manina and her son disappeared from the summerhouse. Renzo sees Adriana
approach Humberto's coffin. Adriana tells herself that he has paid dearly with
his life for all he has done. Renzo approaches Adriana to pay his respects and
tells Adriana that he doesn't hold any grudges towards the dead. Adriana is
appalled at his remarks. Adriana accuses Renzo of killing Humberto. Renzo tells
Adriana that she is crazy. Adriana tells Renzo that she doesn't want to
continue to talk to the assassin of her brother and leaves. Renzo follows her.
Patricio goes to see Friar Quintin to let him know that Manina and Adriana's
son have disappeared and
can't be found. Friar Quintin tells Patricio that a terrible tragedy has
occurred and lets him know that Humberto is dead. Patricio can't believe the
news. With the coffin open and Humberto's body exposed to the funeral guests,
people walk up to him to pay their respects. Orlando asks himself who could
have killed him. Isa walks up to the coffin to see Humberto and Astrid joins
her. Astrid asks Isa if she is in pain over Humberto's death and that now that
he is gone she is free to conquer a new love. Astrid tells Isa that she better
not be interested in a particular one. Isa pretends to cry and wonders where Adriana
and Renzo have gone. Renzo asks Adriana if she thinks he is Humberto's killer.
Adriana tells him that she is sure he did it and wonders why he even came to
pay his respects after killing him. Adriana tells Renzo that she knows that
Humberto did alot of wrong things and he paid for it with his life but she
can't conceive the idea of Renzo pretending to pay his respects when he killed
Humberto. Renzo tells her that they have committed worse crimes against him.
Adriana confronts Renzo and reminds him that he told her that he had just
finishing meeting someone near the cliffside earlier in the day and that he had
told her how much he hated them and seeked revenge. Renzo confronts Adriana and
asks her if she has any proof of accusing him as the killer of her brother. Isa
tells Rodolfo that many people have come to give Adriana their sympathy for her
loss and she is no where to be found. Rodolfo tells Isa that he will look for
her. Dino tells Isa that now everything is in perfect order. Isa tells Dino that
he has been her savior and she will be forever grateful. Adriana tells Renzo
that she will accuse him of Humberto's death and that he will pay for it
because her brother's death will not be left unavenged. Rodolfo joins them and
tells Adriana that he supports her and that the Police Captain has arrived to
talk to her. Renzo tells Adriana that she should tell the truth about who
killed Humberto.
Part II: Renzo tells Adriana for
her to say what she knows so that the killer can pay and be sent to the island of
the condemned. Renzo returns to the funeral services and sees Isa. Renzo asks
her how she is feeling and Isa tells him that even though she has suffered at
the hands of the Astolfi's, she never wanted Humberto's death. Renzo is blinded by her pretense. Adriana
tells the Police Captain that she doesn't know who could have killed her
brother. Adriana returns to the funeral service to stand near the coffin where
her dead brother's body is laying at rest. Renzo looks over to see Adriana and
knows that she is in pain and would love to console her. Isa tells Renzo that
she can't feel sorrow for Adriana because she knows that Adriana was also an
accomplice of Humberto during the time an innocent was sent to the island of
the condemned for his crimes. Isa is feeding Renzo with false information about
Adriana's involvement in Humberto's scheme. Isa is using Humberto's death to
play the role of a victim. Astrid approaches Renzo and Isa to tell him that he
has ignored her during the services. Renzo tells Astrid that because of
Humberto's sudden death he has forgotten his manners and asks her to forgive
him. Astrid tells Renzo that Isa must be grieving and that she and Humberto
where planning on getting married. It will take a long time for Isa to get over
Humberto's death. Isa tells them that she needs to be alone and leaves. Renzo
sees Adriana sitting down and approaches her from behind. He asks her if her
meeting with the Police Captain was fruitful and if she told the Police Captain
who Humberto's killer was. Adriana tells him that she kept quiet about who the
killer is and that even though she knows the truth she will never speak to
Renzo again. Renzo asks Adriana why didn't she tell the Police Captain that he
was the killer or maybe because she is not sure he killed Humberto. Adriana
tells Renzo that she will consider him dead before her eyes and he tells her
that her reaction doesn't phase him because she is dead before his eyes too.
Pedro knows that in order for Isa to receive Maximilliano's fortune, Astrid
would have to recognize Isa as her daughter and that would mean Astrid would
want to fight her for the money. Adriana tells Renzo to leave because his
presence causes her profound pain. Renzo complys and leaves. Adriana walks over
to the coffin to hold Humberto's hands and asks herself how could Renzo have
killed her brother, knowing that she still loves him with all her heart but
could never forgive him. Friar Quintin walks over to Adriana and Renzo sees him
for the first time and realizes he knows the Friar. Isolda tells Martin that
she doesn't think Isa will come to the tavern because the man she was going to
marry, Humberto de Astolfi, was killed. Martin is surprised. Renzo tells Isa to
stop by his castle because he would like to propose an offer to her. Isa wants
to know what he is talking about. Renzo tells Isa that he is willing to offer
her his castle for her to stay so that she can get away from her terrible
ordeal with the Astolfi's. Dino sees Isa talking with Renzo. Dino tells himself
that no one will know that he was Humberto's killer and if he got rid of Daniel Discarpia, he
can also get rid of Count Minelli because Isa belongs to him and no one else.
Isa will have to love him because now they share a secret between them. Adriana
tells Friar Quintin that Humberto was changing his ways and that he wanted to
be the brother she could be proud of. Friar Quintin tells her that Humberto is
finally resting in peace and for her to be strong for her son. Adriana tells
him that she still doesn't know where her son could be. It is morning and
Adriana is standing next to the covered coffin. She tells her brother that now
he can rest in peace and that she has forgiven him for all his faults. Martin
goes to see Isa. Isa is furious with him because he is still determined to tell
the authorities about his offense. Martin tells Isa that if he does he won't
say anything about her involvement. Isa tells him that if he does, she will
make sure his daughter Maria pays the price. Isa tells him to leave. When
Martin is leaving, Manina approaches Isa to ask for her help. Pedro asks Renzo why did he ask Isa to
come and live with them at his castle. Renzo tells Pedro that since Humberto is
dead, they can take care of her. Pedro is in agreement with Renzo. Adriana is
worried about where her son could be. Rodolfo goes to see Adriana to tell her
that they are ready to go bury Humberto. Adriana asks Rodolfo if he has her
son. Manina asks Isa to send a message to Adriana about her son. Isa tells
Manina that she will tell Adriana but that it is possible Adriana can't see her
because she is busy with her brother's funeral arrangements. Isa tells Manina
that Adriana will be happy to hear good news about her son. Adriana wants
Rodolfo to tell her the truth because her son has disappeared. Rodolfo tells
Adriana that he promised not to harm her son if she succumbed to being the wife
she is supposed to be. Adriana tells Rodolfo that she can't think anymore
because now her brother is dead and she feels all alone. Pedro tells Renzo that
he doesn't need a Doctor and Renzo tells him that he is worried about him.
Renzo tells Pedro that he sees him as the Father he didn't know and never grew
up with. Martin sees Manina and approaches her. Manina tells Martin that the young lady who helped
her is very nice. Martin tells Manina that he doesn't think so, but who is he
to judge her because he has committed is own crimes. Manina asks him why does
he think that way and he tells her to forget it. Isa returns to see him talking
with Manina. Martin leaves. Manina asks Isa if she told Adriana about her
message. Isa tells Manina that she did but that Adriana can't see her now. Isa tells
Manina that Adriana will meet her tonight near the crossroads of old Villa
Florencia and for her to bring the child with her because she can't wait to see
her son. Adriana asks Petra if Rodolfo would have her son would he tell her.
Petra doesn't know but hopes that Manina is somewhere safe with her son. Manina
asks Isa to tell Adriana that she will go to the meeting place. Isa, tells herself
that tonight Adriana's son and Manina will disappear for her own benefit
because she will get rid of any obstacles that will get in her way of
conquering Count Minelli. Isa tells Rodolfo that she set a trap for the old
woman who has Adriana's son. Tonight she will kill the old woman and get
Adriana's son. Rodolfo is pleased. Adriana tells Petra that she can't believe
someone has killed Humberto. She will never be able to forgive him for killing
her brother. Petra wonders if Adriana knows who the killer is and asks her if
she suspects someone. Renzo tells Pedro that Adriana accused him of killing
Humberto. Pedro tells Renzo that Adriana doesn't have any proof. Renzo tells
Pedro that he could have avoided Humberto's death because he was the last to see
him alive. Pedro tells him not to blame himself. Renzo tells him that when he
met Humberto at the cliffside, Humberto told him that he didn't kill Daniel
Discarpia with his blade and it was an accident. Adriana tells Friar Quintin
that she is feeling resentment and hate. Friar Quintin tells her that she
should not feel that way especially because of her brother's recent death.
Adriana tells Friar Quintin that she wants to confess to him that she thinks
she knows who is her brother's killer. Friar Quintin tells Adriana that she
should speak and tell someone what she knows. Adriana tells him that she must
be paying for her past sins because Humberto's killer is none other than the
father of her son. Renzo is
wondering if Humberto lied to hide his crime or if someone else killed Count
Discarpia. Dino tells himself that no one will know he has killed because of
the love for Isa he has gotten two people out of his way. He tells himself that
if anyone tries to get in between him and Isa he will also kill them too. Adriana
tells Friar Quintin to believe her because her son's father has returned and
that he is responsible for Humberto's death. Friar Quintin asks Adriana who it
is and she tells him if he heard of Count Minelli. Adriana tells Friar Quintin
that Count Minelli is Renzo the gypsy, the man whom she loves and is the father
of her child. Friar Quintin tells Adriana that he doesn't know if this man has
come back for revenge but that if he vowed to love her and lives in truth then
to give herself a chance to doubt his malice. Friar Quintin tells Adriana that
he doesn't think Renzo could
have killed her brother. Adriana doesn't know what to think. Bernal tells Renzo
that the woman who came to seek refuge with her grandson before has returned
again. Renzo is pleased and wants to meet her. Bernal tells him that she has
left because she had to meet with the child's mother. Renzo asks if the woman
took the child with her. Night has fallen. Manina is waiting for Adriana.
Rodolfo and Astrid are enjoying each other's company in his bedroom. Rodolfo is
telling Astrid that with Humberto's death, Adriana will be mourning him for a
few days but that afterword he looks forward to attending the Prince's dance. Patricio goes to see
Adriana. Adriana asks him if he has news about Manina and her son. Patricio
tells her that he has not been able to find them but will continue to look.
Manina hears an approaching carriage and thinks Adriana has come to see her.
Isa sees Manina and wonders if the old woman brought Adriana's child. Manina
notices that it is Isa who is driving the carriage and thinks Adriana is
inside. Isa uses the carriage and driving the horses at full force runs over
Manina knocking her down. Adriana is worried in not knowing where her son could
be. Bernal takes the child to Renzo and Renzo is happy to see the child. Bernal
tells Renzo that the child looks alot like him and that they could pass off as
being father and son. Bernal tells Renzo that shouldn't he think of getting
married and having children of his own because he can tell that Renzo has been
taken with the child. Aya Petra tells Adriana that she heard Isa had left the
castle driving a carriage. Adriana thinks that Isa needs time for herself
because of Humberto's death. Isa walks up to Manina's body and checks to see if
she is holding the child. Isa discovers that Manina didn't bring the child with
her. Renzo tells Bernal he has picked a warm place for the child to rest.
Bernal tells Renzo that he wishes for the child's grandmother to stay with them
for a while. Renzo tells him that it is possible that the grandmother has her
own agenda to follow. Bernal tells Renzo that the child's grandmother was very
worried over the safety of her grandchild. Renzo asks why. Bernal tells him
that she insisted that no one find out that the child was staying with them.
Bernal tells Renzo that apparently the child is in danger because there are
people who want to do him harm. Petra doesn't think that Isa is really mourning
the death of Humberto because during the services she saw Isa talking with
Count Minelli. Adriana tells Petra that she doesn't think so because Isa cared
for Humberto. Petra tells Adriana that she doesn't trust Isa. Isa tells Rodolfo that the old
woman didn't show up for the meeting she had arranged and she probably escaped
without any trace to find her. Rodolfo tells Isa that he was looking forward to
getting Adriana's son so that he could get rid of the child. Isa tells Rodolfo
that if the old woman did
not confide in her then she doubts the old woman will approach Adriana again at
least for a good long while. Pedro goes to see Isolda and she tells him that
Humberto would frequent her tavern and that is how he fell in love with Isa who
used to work for her. Isolda realizes that Humberto is the second man who is killed over Isa
because the first was Daniel Discarpia. She tells Pedro that she doesn't think
either killings are related because the first one was killed by a gypsy and who
knows who killed Humberto. Rodolfo tells Isa that she is to tell Adriana what
he wants her to know. Isa asks Rodolfo if maybe Adriana will cause a scene.
Rodolfo tells her that she will help him to avoid it because she is a very
smart woman. Adriana wonders and asks Petra if Isa had returned to the castle
or could she have gone back to the Astolfi castle. Adriana tells Petra that she doesn't think Isa
would have gone back there where memories are too painful. Adriana asks Petra
if she should ask Rodolfo for his help in finding her. Rodolfo approaches Isa
and kisses her on the neck. Isa tells him that she is helping him with
Adriana's son but for him not to take advantage of her. Rodolfo tells her that
he is the master of his castle and will possess anyone who he desires. Isa
tells Rodolfo that she is interested in Count Minelli and he stops. Renzo goes
to see the child again and asks himself how he will feel when the child's
grandmother takes him away. Renzo starts to wonder why he has such an
attraction for the child as if the child was a part of him but then thinks he
must be crazy for thinking it. Isolda tells Pedro all about her past and how
happy she is that he has become her friend. Bernal goes to see Renzo and to
tell him that it is very late and the child's grandmother has not returned.
Bernal tells Renzo that before she left, the grandmother told him to care for
the child and not to give the child to anyone other than herself. Renzo asks
Bernal if he thinks something has happened and Bernal tells him that he hopes not.
Bernal tells Renzo that without his grandmother by his side, the child will not
be able to rest for the evening. Renzo tells Bernal that he will look after the child for this
evening and to bring the child to his room because the child will sleep with
him. Preparing to go to bed, Adriana tells Petra that another day has gone by
and she doesn't know where her son could be. Petra tells Adriana that Isa
returned to the castle and might possibly come to see her. Isa tells Rodolfo
that she will go see her cousin Adriana to tell her the news he wants Adriana
to know. Isa tells Rodolfo that she will be aware of Adriana's activities and
he tells her that she better let him know of Adriana's movements. Rodolfo tells
Isa that he will be
her allied in helping her conquer Count Minelli's affections. Adriana is in bed
thinking to herself wondering why Manina has not contacted her to let her know
where her son is. Renzo is holding the child and telling himself that he will
watch over the child's sleep. Renzo tells himself that if only Adriana had told
the truth they would be living in a peaceful place and would probably have a
child like the one he is holding in his arms. Renzo wonders if Adriana hadn't
betrayed him they would be sharing their love. Adriana is sleeping when Isa
walks into her room to wake her up. Adriana wakes up to see Isa and asks her
where she was because Dino had said she had returned. Adriana tells Isa that
she thought she had decided to get some rest. Isa tells Adriana that she was
waiting for Adriana's husband to retire to his room so that no one would hear
what she was going to tell her. Isa tells Adriana that she needs to tell her
something horrible about her son. End of summary Hope you enjoyed, Margie
10/21/00. Telenovelas-Internet.com. It is night and Adriana is preparing to go to bed
with her Aya Petra's assistance. Adriana is telling Petra that another day has
gone by and she has not heard a word about her son. Petra tells Adriana that
maybe Isa knows something because Dino had told her that Isa had returned. Isa
tells Rodolfo that she is going to tell her cousin Adriana the information he
wants Adriana to know and will keep him informed of her activities. Rodolfo
tells Isa she better let him know about all of Adriana's movements and in
return he will become her allied in her quest to conquer Count Minelli's
affections. Adriana wonders where Manina and her son are and why hasn't she
made any contact with her. Renzo, holding Adriana's child in his arms, wonders
why Adriana betrayed him and their love. He knows that he will never be able to
forget her and looks at the scar which symbolizes the vow of eternal love they
made to each other. Isa has gone to visit Adriana. Adriana wants to know what happened to her son.
Isa tells Adriana that her son is in the hands of Rodolfo Farnesio. Adriana,
upon hearing this information,
is devastated from the news. Adriana tells Isa that Rodolfo promised her he
wouldn't harm her son and wants to know how Isa found out. Isa tells Adriana
that she heard some of Farnesio's guards talking about how they had found the
child and the woman who took care of him and were on their way to capture them.
Adriana tells Isa that when she went to the summer house she didn't find them
there and that Manina probably fleed to avoid being captured. Isa tells Adriana
that she immediately followed the guards into the forrest and managed to see
the old woman and her son. Isa tells her that she heard the guards say they
would take them far away and she tried to follow but without success. Adriana,
in her moment of despair, hugs Isa and starts to cry over her son's ordeal.
Rodolfo tells Dino that he managed to coerce Isa into telling Adriana that he
had her son. Dino tells Rodolfo that Isa is a very beautiful and intelligent
woman. Rodolfo agrees and tells him that Isa is proposing to conquer the affections
of Count Minelli. Dino is surprised to hear the news. Rodolfo tells him that
Isa wants his help in getting Count Minelli to love her. Dino tells Rodolfo
that he shouldn't help Isa out. Dino tells Rodolfo that he is his most loyal
servant and that he knows alot of important things about him. Rodolfo is
confused why Dino is telling him this news and wants to know why. Dino begs him
not to help Isa. Rodolfo doesn't understand why Dino is asking him not to help
her and tells Dino that Isa is a beautiful woman who can fall in love with
Count Minelli. Dino tells him that he has very important reasons why Rodolfo
shouldn't help Isa. Dino confesses to Rodolfo that he is in love with Isa.
Adriana, who has become furious over the news, tells Isa that she is going to
see Rodolfo immediately so that he can tell her where her son is. Adriana
starts to leave her room when Isa grabs her to stop her from leaving. Isa tells
Adriana that she needs to act in a more clever way or she will cause Rodolfo to
be furious and then have to deal with the consequences. Adriana, already in a
desperate state of mind, asks Isa what she should do. Adriana realizes that her
son is now in the hands of Rodolfo and if anything were to happen to her son
she would die. Isa tells Adriana that she needs to be cautious because Rodolfo is doing
this to her so that he can have control over her. Isa tells Adriana that she
should try not to disobey him or provoke him to do something against her son.
Adriana tells Isa that maybe she is right and will have to succumb to Rodolfo's
orders. Isa tells her that she will try to find out where her son has been
hidden. Isa tells Adriana that with Humberto dead all she now has is Adriana
and her son to look out for. Rodolfo laughs at Dino about his affections for Isa.
Dino tells him that he can hope Isa can love him. Rodolfo tells Dino that maybe he should
look at himself in the mirror because Isa is more of a woman then he can
desire. Rodolfo tells Dino that a hunchback would be the last person Isa would
want to fall in love with. Dino is hurt by Rodolfo's words and asks that he not
make fun of his looks. Dino tells Rodolfo that he would be capable of
everything. Rodolfo asks Dino if he is threatening him. Dino tells Rodolfo that
if Count Minelli even considers Isa in any way he would kill him because he
wants Isa for himself and no one will stand in his way. Rodolfo tells Dino to
calm down because he knows that Dino has been a faithful and loyal servant to
him. Rodolfo tells Dino that he doesn't want to get involved in Isa's conquest
of Count Minelli because he wants Count Minelli to be interested in Astrid de
Marnier. Rodolfo offers Dino a cup of wine and tells him to leave everything in
his hands. Morning has arrived. Pedro, Renzo and Bernal are watching the tiny child
laying on Renzo's bed. Bernal tells them that they have all been taken in by
the child's presence. Pedro asks Bernal what is the child's name and he tells
them that from all the excitement of seeing the child's grandmother again he
didn't ask her what the child's name was. Bernal tells them it is his fault for
not knowing. Renzo tells him that when the grandmother returns they will find
out. Renzo wonders why the old woman has not returned and thinks that maybe she
had a problem and couldn't return right away. Rodolfo, looking at his loan
contract, knows that he will have to confront Count Minelli soon about his bad
investments. He knows that if he doesn't do something soon, Count Minelli might
want to collect the large sum of money he borrowed so he has to gain time
before that can happen. Adriana walks into the study where Rodolfo is thinking
about his loan and marches up to the desk. In a furious tone of voice, Adriana
orders Rodolfo to tell her where her son is. Rodolfo tells her that she has no
courtesy. Adriana tells him that she wants to know where her son is. Rodolfo
tells her that she will find out soon enough. Adriana reminds Rodolfo that he promised
not to harm her son's life. Rodolfo tells her that he will comply like he told
her before. Adriana tells him that he has no right over her son. Rodolfo tells
Adriana that by law her son is as much his as it is hers. Adriana wants to know
why Rodolfo has taken
it out on her son when the child has done nothing to him. Rodolfo tells her
that he is not a criminal and wouldn't harm her son but that it depended on her
if she wanted to see him again. Adriana wants to know when can she see her son.
Rodolfo tells her that whenever she wanted to but that everything in life had a
price. Renzo, holding the child in his arms, tells Pedro that he needs to go
for a ride to clear his mind and would love to take the child with him because
the sun and air would do the child good. Pedro tells Renzo that Bernal mentioned how the
grandmother didn't want anyone to see her grandson and that it would be
dangerous if he were to take the child with him. Renzo tells Pedro that he is
right and will see to it that the child is protected from all harm. Adriana
doesn't like the game Rodolfo
is playing with her about seeing her son. Rodolfo tells her that he needs to
take care of his loan situation with Count Minelli. Adriana tells him that he
is despicable. Rodolfo grabs and holds Adriana's body close to him and tells
her that she needs to be careful because her son's life is in her hands. He
caresses her face while she winces at his touch. Rodolfo tells Adriana that he
has her son's life in his hands and if she doesn't do what he tells her that
something bad could happen to her son. Holding Adriana's face in his hands,
Rodolfo licks her cheek
while Adriana demonstrates her distaste for his action. Rodolfo tells her that
now she understands. Isa
is waiting in the livingroom of the Minelli castle. She is remembering the time
when Astrid de Marnier had agreed to help her become an aristocrat. She makes a
promise to herself that one day the castle will be hers. Pedro and Bernal
approach her to greet her arrival. Renzo has gone horseback riding and stops
near the cliffside where Humberto fell to his death. He remembers the
conversation he had with Humberto and remembers the time when he and Adriana
had talked and he revealed himself before her. Unknown to Renzo, Adriana has
also gone to the cliffside to bid her brother's soul goodbye. Renzo, holding his
red voilin, approaches Adriana and starts to play his gypsy song. Adriana
acknowledges his presence and greets him. Renzo asks Adriana why she has come
to the cliffside. Adriana tells him not to stop playing his violin. Renzo wants
to know why she is there. Adriana tells Renzo not to ask her any questions but
for him to look at her and return to his violin playing. Adriana tells Renzo
that through his music she fell in love with him before she knew who he really
was. Renzo starts to play his violin again and tells Adriana that it is as if
their love hadn't gone through so much turmoil. Adriana walks up to Renzo to
caress his face and tells him that could it be possible that they can regain
their love. Adriana tells Renzo to forget all that has happened and to return to the love they
once shared. Isa tells Pedro that the only thing she is aware of her past is
that her mother had abandoned her at the hands of a tavern owner. Pedro asks
Isa if she was treated properly and Isa tells him yes. Living her life in a
tavern was cause for an innocent young girl to grow up being exposed to a
prostitute's ways. Pedro asks Isa that if it were possibly would she have liked
to know who her mother was. Isa is taken by surprise at Pedro's remarks. Astrid
de Marnier, accompanied
by her servant Violeta, goes to visit Isolda at her tavern. Isolda is surprised
to see her and wants to know if she has come to return the necklace she
borrowed from her. Asrid tells Isolda that she came to see her because Isolda
didn't acknowledge her requests for a meeting. Isolda asks Astrid why did she
come to see her. Renzo calls Adriana by the name Luna and tells her that she
belongs to him. He grabs her and they hug one another. Adriana reaffirms and
tells him that she truly does belong to him only. Renzo tells Adriana that they still love one another
and are together like they used to be. Adriana tells him that she loves him.
Adriana and Renzo look into each other eyes and kiss each other tenderly.
Adriana, caressing Renzo's face, tells him that she couldn't wait for this
particular moment to arrive because there were many times she wanted to be back
in his arms again. Adriana, who has ventured to smile and feel happy, tells
Renzo that she wants to tell him something that will make his life very happy.
Adriana tells him that it is something that will make him as happy as finding
each other again. She tells him that it occurred after they had been separated
and when she left the island of the condemned. At that the mention of the
island of the condemned, Renzo's emotions change. He remembers what an awful
place it was and his quest for revenge returns. Renzo screams at Adriana and
tells her that he ended up on the island of the condemned because of Humberto's, Rodolfo's and her
fault. Isolda asks Astrid why she wants to borrow money from her when she is a
poor simple tavern owner. Astrid tells Isolda that she knows Isolda has money
because of the many times she paid her in the past and that it wouldn't be hard
to give her a loan. Astrid tells her that when she regains her fortune she will
give Isolda a monetary reward. Isolda asks Astrid if she is sure to win the
heart of Count Minelli, who is much younger than she and the son of her dead
husband. Astrid tells Isolda that age is not an impediment and again asks
Isolda if she will give her the money she is asking for. Isolda can only smile.
Bernal tells Isa that he is
sorry the Count was unable to see her. Isa asks him where did Count Minelli go
and Bernal tells her that he went riding near the cliffsides. Renzo tells
Adriana that once again he fell for her and believed in her sincerity that she
loved him. Renzo asks
Adriana what does she possess over him that for a moment he was able to forget
his revenge. Adriana grabs Renzo by the shoulders and tells Renzo to listen to
himself and realize what he is saying and not let his heart be filled again
with hate. Renzo tells Adriana
that he hates her and will make her suffer like his mother suffered. Adriana
tells Renzo that she needs to tell him her most heartwrenching grief that she is going through. She
tells him that her grief is what makes her worry about losing him again and
asks him for compassion. Renzo, in a furious tone of voice, wants to know why
she wants compassion. Renzo tells Adriana that because of her guilt his mother
died and he will not be able to forgive her for it. Renzo tells Adriana that he
curses her a million times over. Adriana tells him not to say that and is hurt
by his words. She looks away from his cruel and harsh words. Renzo, for a moment,
looks as if he feels sorry for what he told her. Adriana drops to her knees
before him and begs Renzo to forgive her for causing his mothers death. Renzo
tells Adriana to stay clear
of him because he doesn't want to see her anymore. Renzo tells Adriana that he
hates her even more for having him forget about his quest for revenge. Adriana
asks him how could he be so cruel and with no mercy. At that moment, Isa
approaches them on horseback and listens to them talk without them knowing she
is near. Renzo, once again, accuses Adriana of knowing that her brother was
guilty of the crime he committed but instead allowed an innocent man to take
the blame. Adriana tells him that its true her brother should have taken
responsibility for the crime because maybe he wouldn't have been killed by...
Renzo looks at Adriana and tells her to go ahead and accuse him of the murder
of Humberto because he doesn't care. Renzo tells Adriana that he wanted to give
Humberto the right
punishment for all that he did to him but fate dealt him another card and he
died before receiving it. Renzo tells her that he wanted to see Humberto beg
for clemancy. Renzo asks Adriana if she still thinks he is responsible for her
brother's death. Pedro remembers
the conversation he had with Isa and how she lived her life in a tavern. Pedro
knows that Isa will suffer when she finds out who her mother really is and will
try to help her attain Maximilliano's fortune. Pedro orders Bernal to prepare a
carriage because he is leaving. In the hospital room of the convent, a nun is telling
Maria that she can see her father soon. Maria tells the nun that she doesn't
know why her father is acting the way he is because she has never known him to
do anything wrong. Maria is delighted to hear that the Mother Superior has
granted her permission to see her father. The Doctor disrupts their
conversation by telling them that a wounded woman has just arrived and he needs
their help. Adriana tells Renzo that she hurts to hear that his heart has been
filled with so much hate and that because of his hate he is blinded by his
actions. Renzo tells Adriana that they are responsible for his resentment.
Adriana once again asks Renzo to forgive her. Renzo tells her that not even in
death will he be able to forgive her and walks away. Adriana struggles to tell
Renzo what she wanted to
tell him, that they have a son. Renzo rides off while Adriana sees him leave.
Adriana grabs her cloak and starts to leave when Isa approaches her. Adriana
asks Isa why she come to the cliffside. Isa tells Adriana that she wanted to
say goodbye to
Humberto. Isa tells Adriana that she could't help overhearing the conversation
Adriana was having with Count Minelli or Renzo. Renzo is riding and remembering the conversation he
just had with Adriana. He turns his horse around and rides back. Isa tells
Adriana that now she knows
that Count Minelli is the gypsy who was accused of the crime Humberto committed
and has come back for revenge. Adriana tells Isa that Renzo's heart is filled
with hate but that she doesn't blame him for feeling that way because he has
suffered at their expense. Isa tells Adriana that she too has suffered also and
he should have compassion towards her especially being the father of her child.
The wounded woman is Manina. The Doctor tells Maria and the nun that she was
found on the roadway by a laborer and brought to them for care. Maria asks the
Doctor if the woman will make it and he tells her that he doesn't know because
she is badly wounded and only a miracle could save her. Isa tells Adriana that
she has gone through some tough times. Adriana agrees with her. Adriana tells
Isa about how she pretended to be a commoner from town and how she fell in love
with him by performing a gypsy ceremony in which they joined their blood and
vowed eternal love. Adriana tells Isa that she was forced to abandoned Renzo
because Rodolfo had threatened to kill him if she didn't return to Villa
Florencia and marry him. Isa tells Adriana that Rodolfo is a cruel man and what
would happen if he were to find out that she had seen and met with Renzo.
Adriana tells Isa that Rodolfo should never know that Renzo is alive because he
would kill him without mercy. Rodolfo is waiting for Astrid to
speak with her. Astrid is surprised to see him. Rodolfo kisses Astrid on the
cheek and tells her that she should hurry her plans to conquer Count Minelli
because there is someone else who is also interested. Astrid tells him that she
is aware of all the prospective suitors of Count Minelli. Rodolfo tells her
that for his benefit only two can become the Countess of Minelli, one being
Astrid and the other Isa
Valenti. Astrid is not happy to hear this information from Rodolfo. Isa tells
Adriana that she is very generous in protecting the life of the gypsy even
though he despises her. Adriana tells Isa that his hate doesn't allow him to
see straight, but that maybe he will change when he finds out that they have a
son. Isa tells Adriana that she can't tell Renzo the information because his
life would be in danger if Rodolfo found out he was the gypsy and the father of
her son. Isa asks Adriana what would Renzo do if he found out they have a son
and that his son is in the custody of Rodolfo Farnesio. Adriana tells Isa that
Renzo would confront Rodolfo. Isa tells Adriana that Rodolfo would know that Count Minelli is
Renzo and would have him killed. Isa tells Adriana that she should forget Renzo
and pretend that he is dead
in order to save his life. Pedro goes to visit Isolda and makes a toast for Isa
and her future life as an aristocrat. Isolda laughs and tells Pedro now that
Humberto has died, Isa will probably return to the tavern. Pedro tells Isolda
that not if Astrid de
Marnier does something for her since Isa is her daughter. Isolda tells Pedro
that she doubts Astrid will do anything to help Isa. Isa tells Adriana that she
better return to the castle so that Rodolfo doesn't question her. She tells
Adriana that she will stay a while longer to say goodbye to Humberto. Adriana
realizes that Isa cared for her brother even though he never told her that he
loved Isa. Adriana takes her cloak and covers Isa with it and leaves. Isa tells
herself that Adriana is such a fool. Isa tells herself that she has the luck on
her side because she has Adriana eating out of the palm of her hands and it
will not be hard to manipulte her the way she wants to. Isa figures that before
Adriana can once again recover the love Renzo has for her, she will become his
wife first. While standing on the cliffside facing the ocean, Renzo approaches a cloaked figure.
Thinking that the person is Adriana he calls her name. When the person turns
around he realizes it is Isa instead. Isa sees Renzo and greets him as Count
Minelli or would he prefer the name Renzo. Renzo is taken by surprise. Renzo
asks Isa why she mentioned the name. Isa tells Renzo that it is the name that
Adriana referred to and that it is the name of a gypsy who was condemned for a
crime a long time ago. Renzo asks Isa if Adriana told her about it. Isa tells
Renzo that Adriana
has had fun telling her the story of the poor gypsy who became a victim in her
intrigue and with the help of Farnesio too. Renzo is mad to hear this
information. Isa continues by telling him that she doesn't know why Adriana
finds it entertaining to know that she sent an innocent man to the island of
the condemned for a crime he didn't commit. Renzo tells Isa that he is not
surprised about Adriana's actions because he knows her well. Isa tells Renzo now that Adriana
knows he is the gypsy to be very careful because Adriana and Farnesio want to destroy him.
Astrid tells Rodolfo that Isa will not take away what she considers hers and
that she will never permit it. Rodolfo notices that Astrid has taken the news
rather strongly and tells her that by her reaction it would seem that she knows
something more. Astrid tells Rodolfo that Isa thinks she can exchange her life
in the tavern for that of a life of nobility. Isa tells Renzo to forgive her
for all that she has said because even though he has a similar resemblance to
the gypsy she can't believe he is Renzo. Renzo asks Isa if she knew the gypsy.
Isa tells Renzo that she knew he was a kind man who lived with his gypsy family
and would never do harm to anyone. Isa tells Renzo that she is sure Farnesio
and Adriana are setting a trap and that they will not stop until he is takes
the bait. Pedro tells
Isolda that he wants to give Isa what is rightful hers because Astrid took it
all away from her. Isolda wants to know Pedro's motives for helping Isa and he
tells her that he has grown fond of her and wants to help her. Pedro asks
Isolda to help him convince Astrid to recognize Isa as her daughter and offers
Isolda money. He tells Isolda that if she does then he will reward her with
more money. Isolda tells
Pedro that she thinks his quest is impossible and for him not to waste his
money. Isolda tells Pedro that she knows Astrid de Marnier well and it won't be easy
to convince her. Pedro asks that she at least attempt it. Astrid is telling
herself that Isa will not win the battle against her. Astrid remembers that
once before she managed to get Isa out of her way and if necessary she would do
it again. Adriana tells Petra that she carries many heartaches. The fact that
Rodolfo has her son, the resentment from her son's father, the loss of her
brother and to carry in her conscience the death of a woman. Petra asks Adriana
what she meant by the death of a woman. Adriana tells Petra that because of her offense, Renzo's
mother died from anguish and pain. She tells Petra that Rodolfo, Humberto and
her separated Renzo from his mother. Adriana tells Petra that the woman decided
to die when she saw her son leave for the island of the condemned to a destiny
which she knew he would never return from. Adriana tells Petra that now she
understands the pain of being a mother because she would die if something
happened to her son. Astrid, while riding her horse, encounters Renzo on
horseback. Astrid asks
Renzo why he has come to the Farnesio castle. Renzo tells her that he came to
accompany Isa and was leaving. Astrid tells Renzo that she didn't know he and Isa
were good friends. Renzo dismounts and helps Astrid off her horse. Renzo tells
Astrid that he likes to be respectful towards Isa and Adriana. Renzo also tells
Astrid that it doesn't mean that he is interested because their is another
woman who has captivated his fondness. Renzo tells Astrid that she causes him
to feel something for her. Astrid tells Renzo that he is right and that she too
is interested in him. Renzo tells Astrid that he has to be careful who he cares
for because love can be betrayed. Astrid tells him that it seems he has had a
bad relationship in the past and for him not to judge others the same. Renzo
tells Astrid that he believes he will find the right woman to love and hope
that he not suffer any disillusions. Renzo tells her that he hopes its a woman
who loves him for who he is and not is fortune. Astrid agrees. Astrid takes the
opportunity to tell Renzo that Isa has fallen madly in love with Dino. Renzo is
surprised to hear the news. Astrid tells Renzo that Isa and Dino have been
secretly in love for a long time. Isa walks into a room to find Dino waiting for her. Dino is
furious and upset. He asks Isa if she was with Count Minelli all afteroon. Isa
tells him that she bumped into him and he accompanied her back to the castle.
Isa tells Dino not to worry. Night has fallen and Bernal, holding the child in
his arms, tells Renzo that he is worried about the child's grandmother who has
not returned. Bernal tells Renzo that he ordered some guards to search for her.
Renzo goes to Bernal and takes the child into his arms. Renzo tells Bernal that
maybe the child's grandmother had to go a long way to meet up with the child's
mother. Adriana tells herself that Renzo has every right to hate her because unwillingly she
contributed to his mother's death and she knows that he will never forgive her.
Rodolfo walks into the room and finds Adriana has been crying. He asks her why
and she tells him that her conscience doesn't permit her to forget the damage
their have done. Adriana asks Rodolfo is he doesn't have any remorse over what
they did. Rodolfo tells her that it is in the past and to forget it. Rodolfo
reminds Adriana that she should think about her son instead of the dead.
Adriana asks him to let her see her son. Rodolfo tells Adriana that they could
be very happy if she wanted to. Pedro has gone to visit Astrid and she is
surprised to see him. Astrid asks if Pedro has come to deliever a message from
Count Minelli. Pedro tells Astrid that an old friend has asked him to protect
his daughter and that he has come to ask her for a favor. Astrid doesn't
understand and asks him what favor is he talking about. Pedro tells her that he
would like for her to recognize Isa as her daughter Astrid is astonished by the
request and asks if he has gone

him. Astrid asks if Pedro has come to deliever a message from Count Minelli.
Pedro tells Astrid that an old friend has asked him to protect his daughter and
that he has come to ask her for a favor. Astrid doesn't understand and asks him
what favor is he talking about. Pedro tells her that he would like for her to
recognize Isa as her daughter Astrid is astonished by the request and asks if
he has gone mad because she would never do such a thing. Astrid asks Pedro who
is the friend he speaks about and how can this friend demand such a request.
Pedro tells Astrid that it is not a request but an order that he is giving her.
Astrid asks Pedro who does he think he is to order her to do what he asks.
Pedro asks Astrid if she recognizes his eyes or the tone of his voice. He asks
her if the years have changed him so much that she can't recognize who he is.
Astrid stares at Pedro and finally realizes who it could be but doesn't want to
accept it. When Astrid it about to say who she thinks he is, Pedro tells her
that he is Pedro Minelli. Astrid is shocked. Astrid tells
Pedro that it is impossible because Pedro Minelli died on the island of the
condemned and his body was thrown into the depths of the ocean. Pedro tells her that she is right, that it
is impossible to get away from the island, but tells her that he survived
because of the hate and revenge as he holds Astrid in a tight grip. Pedro tells
Astrid that his desire for revenge kept him alive. Astrid asks Pedro why did he come back from
hell. She tells him that she is not afraid of his threats and reminds him again
that she was not guilty of any wrong doing when the Regional Prince declared
her innocent. Astrid starts to laugh
hysterically and tells him that he is dead and that he is nobody with authority
to claim revenge against her. Pedro tells Astrid that she was declared free
because he was generous enough to ensure that she not be charged for the crime
and she owes him. Pedro tells her that she belongs to him. Astrid tells Pedro
that he is crazy. She tells him that she didn't have anything to do with what
happened because it was Maximilliano who betrayed him. Pedro gets upset and
tells Astrid not to mention Maximilliano's name in vain because he knows the
truth since Maximilliano left him some papers 20 years ago telling him how
Astrid had betrayed the royal court. Astrid tells Pedro that he may not have
lost his life on the island, but he sure has lost his mind. Astrid asks Pedro
that if the documents did exist why didn't he present them to the royal court
and pretend that he is dead. Pedro tells Astrid that he wanted to ensure that
he would be the one to punish Astrid himself and not someone else. Astrid
starts to laugh and asks Pedro what he plans to do with her. She tells Pedro
that she should have known it was him since his fake last name was derived from
the word revenge. Pedro tells Astrid that he did not try to hide behind his
name, it was because no one had recognized him. Pedro tells Astrid that 20
years of prison life can change a man's face and he came back with the purpose
of getting revenge. Pedro tells Astrid that she has been given some time from his desire
for revenge because of her daughter Isa and that she will do everything that he
wants. Pedro tells Astrid that Isa will get recognized by Astrid as soon as
possible so that she may inherit the money that belongs to her. Astrid looks a
Pedro through watery eyes. Pedro tells her that if she doesn't cooperate with
him, then the Royal Court will receive the papers which describe in detail her
betrayal. Rodolfo
tells Adriana that she has the solution in her hands because he truly desires
her and wants to make her his woman. He tells her that he won't force her, but
will wait until her desire for motherhood overtakes her and then Adriana would
succumb to his will and be the loving wife he so badly wants her to be.
Renzo is holding little Pedro in his
arms. Renzo is telling the child that he is being inspired by the unconditional
love the child is demonstrating to him. Renzo tells the child that he is so
defenseless and needs protection just as if the child were his own son. Renzo
gives little Pedro a tender kiss. Pedro is telling Astrid that he wants her to
recognize Isa as soon as possible. Astrid asks Pedro why does he bother and
what would he benefit from this action. Astrid tells him if he wants everyone
to learn that she abandoned her daughter. Pedro tells her that it is never to
late to rectify an error. Astrid tells Pedro that Isa hates her. Pedro tells
Astrid that her daughter has
a pure heart and is sure that she would forgive her. Astrid tells Pedro that
she doesn't want Isa's forgiveness. Pedro asks Astrid who Isa's father is.
Astrid tells Pedro that maybe it was a young soldier from the war that happened
a long time ago. Pedro is confused at Astrid's remarks and wonders how she
could be the mother of an angel like Isa. Dino is telling
Isa that from now on his master has ordered that she be given a room in his
castle. Isa tells Dino that she knows how much she esteems him. Dino, grabbing
Isa's hand, tells her that he loves her. Dino tells her that he has shown her
how much he would be willing to do for her. Even kill for her. Dino tells Isa
that he was jealous when he saw Isa arrive with Count Minelli. Dino repeats to
Isa that he loves
her. Isa tells him that she is moved by his words because she knows that he is
sincere, but she has lived a life of misery and seeks to live a life of wealth.
Dino tells her that he has money saved up and if she orders it the money would
be hers. Isa tells Dino that
he truly has shown her how much he loves her, but that she couldn't take his
money away from him knowing that he has earned it through hard work. Isa tells
Dino that her goal is to obtain the Minelli fortune and she tells him that she
would share it with him. Dino is surprised at Isa's idea. Pedro is telling
Astrid that the other Pedro Minelli is truly like a son to him and that he is
very proud of him. Astrid tells Pedro that it is true how that so called son is very good
looking, smart and probably working with him in this scheme of revenge. Pedro
tells Astrid that Renzo has no idea of why he has come to order her to do in
telling Isa that she is her mother. Pedro is about to leave when he reminds
Astrid that he will be paying attention when Astrid tells Isa and recognizes
Isa as her daughter. Pedro warns Astrid not to try to fool him and for her to be careful in
not trying to harm Isa. Pedro leaves. Astrid falls down to her knees and begins
to cry. Isa tells Dino that Count Minelli appreciates her very much and it
won't be hard for her to conquer him. Isa tells Dino to understand her motives.
Dino asks Isa if she would also marry him. Isa tells him that if that happens
not to worry because all he needs to remember is that she is willing to share
all the wealth with him. Dino wonders if Isa is telling him the truth. Isa
tells him that she knows that he has been the only man who truly loves her.
Dino tells Isa that he will always be by her side and will live for her only. Renzo is sitting in his study when Pedro opens the door and walks in.
Renzo tells him that he finally arrived and sees that Pedro doesn't look good
and asks if he is alright. Pedro goes to sit down and tells Renzo that he is
ok, it must be the years catching up with him. Pedro tells Renzo that he was at
Isolda's tavern. Renzo tells Pedro that he sure looks as if he had a good time
and Pedro tells him that Isolda is a very fascinating woman. Renzo tells Pedro
that he had seen Adriana near the cliffs and for a brief moment had forgotten
his revenge and spoke to her about love. He tells Pedro that he reacted in
time. Pedro tells him that he must learn to control his emotions. Renzo tells him that he couldn't help it
and after he left returned back to clear up his mind, but Adriana had already left.
He tells Pedro that instead of seeing Adriana he met up with Isa. Renzo tells
Pedro that he feels sorrow that Isa is at the mercy of them. Pedro tells him
that real soon Isa's life will change. Renzo tells Pedro that of course it will
because he will ask Isa to abandon Rodolfo's castle because he will not permit
Isa to be a victim anymore. Adriana is talking with Aya Petra and she is
astonished at what Adriana has told her about Rodolfo's demands. Adriana asks Petra if Rodolfo
would allow Manina to continue to care for her child. Petra reminds Adriana
that Manina arrived
at the Astolfi castle running away from Rodolfo Farnesio and believes that he
instills fear in her. Adriana wonders if Manina has been separated from her son because she has no
idea of how he is and where he could be. Adriana, crying, tells Petra that she
has to save her son. Manina
is in the convent hospital being attended by Maria. She is speaking in a
delirious manner and awakens to see Maria taking care of her. Manina is
terrified and worried. Maria tries to calm her down. Manina tells Maria that
she needs to know about her grandchild. Maria tells her everything is alright.
Manina is very agitated and tries to get up from the bed. She tells Maria that
she needs to take the child back to his mother. Maria tries to tell Manina that
she can't get up from the bed. Manina tells Maria that she knows someone tried
to kill her and that they will want to kill the child too. Manina tells Maria
that she needs to warn Adriana. Maria assures Manina that she will help her if
she calms down and stays in bed. Manina struggles to get up and falls down on
the floor. Maria tells Manina that the doctor told her that her legs had been
badly bruised and couldn't walk. Manina is devastated by the news and starts to
cry.
Rodolfo and Dino are in his study and
Rodolfo is having a drink. He tells Dino not to worry and he will make sure Isa
doesn't marry Count Minelli. Dino tells Rodolfo that Isa is determined to become Count Minelli's
wife, but reminds Rodolfo that Isa is very important to him. Rodolfo tells Dino
that it is important for him
that he doesn't loose his palace as long as Astrid de Marnier becomes the new
Countess Minelli. Isa is talking with Adriana and asks her if Rodolfo has told
her anything about her son. Adriana tells her that he mentioned he has the
child in his custody and has asked her to be his woman in exchange for letting
her be with her child. Isa tells Adriana that maybe she should consider his
demands because maybe that will be the only way she can recover her son.
Adriana tells her that she repulses Rodolfo and detests his presence. Isa tells
Adriana that she understands it would be a major sacrifice, because she knows
how much Adriana values her son's life. Dino is in his room talking to himself.
He says that everything he owns will be Isa's because he has to convince her of
not marrying Count Minelli. Dino knows that Rodolfo will help him win Isa so
that she can be his. Rodolfo goes to Isa's door and
opens it. Without him knowing, Aya Petra sees him walk into her room. Isa is on
her bed getting ready to go to sleep when she is surprised by Rodolfo and tells
him that it is very inappropriate for him to visit her at such a late hour.
Rodolfo in the meantime has started to undress and tells Isa that if she would
prefer that they go to the tavern to have a good time. He walks over to her and
grabs her. Isa struggles and they both land on the bed. Rodolfo begins to kiss
Isa and at first she continues to struggle but after a few minutes she starts
to enjoy their passion. Petra, who saw Rodolfo go into the room realizes that
it is the room he gave Isa. Astrid is telling Violeta that she has to proceed
with caution. She doesn't want to lose Count Minelli because of Isa. Astrid
tells Violeta that if she has to give Isa her last time, then it will be after
she comprises Count Minelli. Astrid, crying, asks Violeta why did Pedro Minelli
have to return from the dead and why didn't he die on the island of the
condemned. Adriana has changed into her
nightgown when Aya Petra walks
in to her room. Petra asks Adriana where she is going and she tells her that
she is going to Rodolfo's room to give in to his demands in order to regain her
son. Petra tells Adriana that she shouldn't do it. Adriana tells her that she
really doesn't want to but if she has to sacrifice herself for the sake of her
son then she will do it. Petra asks Adriana if she thinks that Rodolfo will
return her son to her after he has made her his woman. Petra tells her that she
doubts it will happen. Adriana, desperate asks Petra what she should do. Petra
tells her to try and calm down. Adriana tells Petra that at least she has to
try to convince Rodolfo. Petra tells Adriana that it wouldn't be a good idea to
see Rodolfo right now. Adriana questions Petra. Petra tells her that it is too
late for her to give herself some more time. Maria and a nun at the convent hospital tell Manina
that she is very badly wounded and needs time to heal. Manina is depressed
because she will not be able to walk right away. She realizes that she needs to
regain her grandchild. The nun tells her that she needs to follow the doctors
indications in order to heal much faster. Manina feels desperate that she won't
be able to move for a while. Maria tells her that if she needs anything she
will be able to help her with everything that she will need. Manina worries
about the child and his mother.
During a serious of scenes with music played
in the background the following occurs: Count Minelli and Rodolfo are at his
palace playing a game of chess as Pedro watches them sitting nearby; at the
convent hospital, Maria is helping Manina; during a night of passion, Rodolfo and Isa are enjoying each
other's company in her bedroom; Adriana is laying in her bed curled up holding a
pillow and remember during a flashback memory when she and Renzo kissed when
they met each other on the cliffside; Renzo is sitting by himself in his room
looking at his wrist and suddenly slams his hand down on the table angry with
himself and grabs a glass of wine to drink. Astrid is taking a bath and Violeta asks Astrid if she
isn't worried that she hasn't done what Pedro Minelli has asked her to do or
what would happen if Count Minelli finds out. Astrid tells her that she doesn't
think Pedro Minelli will do anything to jeopardize his true identity during the
party. Violeta reminds Astrid not to be alone during the party this evening.
Renzo and Pedro are in his study and he tells him that Farnesio fell into the
trap they set him up for. Renzo tells Pedro that Farnesio invested in the gold
mines which failed to produce him anything. Pedro tells Renzo that he is sure
Farnesio will try anything to ensure that he doesn't loose his palace. Renzo
tells Pedro that Farnesio
will not be able to do anything once he knows that he can't pay him the money
he borrowed and will eventually get financially ruined. Then he will enjoy
seeing Farnesio and his lovely wife broke and penniless. Renzo tells Pedro that
even though he will ruin Farnesio
financially, he still wouldn't pay for all that he has done to his parents. He
tells Pedro that he won't stop until they pay completely with their lives.
Adriana is telling Rodolfo that how could she possible go to the Regent Princes
royal party since her brother's death has been so recent. Rodolfo tells her
that enough time has passed during her mourning him and that she will go with
him. Adriana tells Rodolfo that she has not been able
to forget Humberto's memory so soon. Rodolfo tells her that she should stop
torturing herself because he will never return. He also mentions to her that if
she is submissive then she is gaining some points in her favor about her son.
Adriana is shocked to hear Rodolfo speaking to her that way and asks him when
will he have pity on her and quit torturing her in that way. Adriana once again
asks Rodolfo if she can see her son. He tells her that if she acts accordingly
tonight at the party, then she can see her son. Rodolfo, grabs Adriana's hand
to kiss it and reminds her that she should act like the happy wife she is and
demonstrate to everyone that she loves him. Rodolfo asks Adriana if she is
willing to pay the price. Adriana looks at Rodolfo is a disgusted manner.
Isa and Dino are in her
room. Isa is telling Dino that she is going to the party and that she has to
make sure Count Minelli notices her so that she can continue her plan of
marrying him. Dino tells her that he is not to happy with her plans. Dino tells
her that he can't stand the idea of Isa being in his arms. Isa tells Dino that
Count Minelli will be the instrument in getting the fortune that she wants. Isa
walks over to Dino
and asks him if he doesn't want to see her happy. Dino, acting like a lap dog,
crouches down on his knees and tells Isa that he wants to see her happy. Isa
tells Dino that he needs to confide in her that soon they will be enjoying
riches together. Night has fallen and the Regent
Prince's royal party is underway. Guests are mingling and talking with one
another. Isa is standing in the room not to far from where Rodolfo and Adriana
are standing. Renzo arrives and walks over to them. He tells Rodolfo that he is
surprised to see him at the party because of Adriana's mourning. Rodolfo tells
him that enough time has passed and they decided to attend the party. Rodolfo
grabs Adriana by the arms and tells Renzo that Adriana didn't want to continue
being isolated from anymore activities. Renzo walks over to Adriana and tells
her that he is happy to see she has recuperated so fast and as she extends her
hand, he kisses it. She thanks him. Renzo turns to see Astrid de Marnier and
also kisses her hand in welcoming her to the party. He asks Astrid if she would
accompany him during the evening and she tells him it would be an honor. Renzo
goes to acknowledge Isa in the same manner. Isa stares at Astrid and Adriana
with cold eyes and swears to herself that Count Minelli will be hers. Rodolfo
comments to Astrid and Renzo
that he thinks they make a beautiful couple and asks Adriana if she agrees.
Adriana tells him yes. He tries to caress Adriana but she pushes him away very
discreetly. At that moment, a royal palace assistant announces the arrival of
the Regent Prince. Everyone in the room bows and honors the Prince's arrival at
the party. At the
convent hospital, Maria is curing Manina's legs. Manina tells her that she is
grateful to her for caring about her so much. Manina informs Maria that through her
curing, the other patients in the hospital are also grateful for her assistance
in healing their wounds. Maria tells Manina that she is happy to see her
getting better and if she continues to heal then maybe she will be able to walk
again. Manina tells
Maria that if she recovers soon and can walk again it will be because of her
caring. Astrid is telling Renzo that he has been staring at Rodolfo's wife for a while now and
that possibly she could get jealous because of it. Renzo tells Astrid that he
was watching Adriana because
he can't believe that she has gotten over the death of her brother so soon.
Astrid tells him that Adriana is the type of person to forget about tragedies.
Renzo can't understand Adriana's disposition. Maria tells Manina that she is
staying at the convent temporarily and that soon she will be reunited with her
father again. She asks Manina if she needs anything. Manina asks Maria if she
can help her write a letter and take it to Farnesio palace. Upon hearing the
name Farnesio, Maria is shocked. During the
royal party, Adriana stares back at Renzo who has not stopped looking at her.
She asks herself when will he stop having the look of revenge in his eyes
because it causes her so much pain to see him look at her that way. Rodolfo
tells Adriana that she needs to smile and enjoy the party. Adriana tells him
that she can't because she is feeling sad over the absence of her son and the
death of her brother. She tells him that she hates the fact of having to fake
it in front of everyone. Rodolfo tells her that maybe her maternal instincts
are starting to fade. Adriana tells him that it is a mother's love for her
child that keeps her going. Rodolfo tells Adriana that they shouldn't sleep in
separate rooms anymore. Adriana is mortified with the news.
Manina is concerned over Maria's
reaction of the name Farnesio. Maria tells her that it is nothing and that she
will take the letter to the Farnesio castle. Manina tells Maria that the mother
of the child will be happy to know that her son is safe and where she can find
him. Manina tells Maria that it won't be easy for her to give the letter to the
child's mother because she is always being watched. Maria tells her not to
worry because if she can't give it to her then there is someone who is
relatively close to her that can do her the favor. Maria tells Manina that this
person grew up with her and that her name is Isa Valenti. Upon hearing the
name, Manina is surprised. Rodolfo is telling Adriana that he will do
everything to make her happy and Adriana tells him that he does everything to make her sad. Rodolfo
tells Adriana that he loves her. She tells him not to say it because that offends
her. Rodolfo grabs Adriana by the shoulder and she tries to back away from his
touch. Manina asks Maria if she knows Isa Valenti. Maria tells her that they
grew up together as sisters and that her father told her that she is living in
the Farnesio castle like a noble woman. Maria tells her that she can ask Isa to
pass on the letter. Manina reacts by telling Maria that for now she doesn't
know if she will write the letter and when she does she will let Maria know. Astrid and Renzo are talking alone away from the party. She is telling
him that she likes the sound of his name. Renzo tells her that he is happy that
she is accompanying him at the party. At that moment, Adriana starts to walk up
to them and Astrid sees her approaching. Astrid takes advantage and gives Renzo
a kiss as Adriana watches. Then Rodolfo calls out Adriana's name and realizes
that he may have interrupted Renzo and Astrid. Adriana looks away embarrassed.
Renzo tells Rodolfo that he doesn't need to apologize. Adriana tells Astrid and Renzo that it was not
her intention to bother them. Astrid tells Adriana that maybe she too was
looking for a quiet place to meet with her husband alone. Rodolfo agrees with
Astrid. Rodolfo tells Astrid and Renzo that he is happy to see that they look
like they are in love. He asks when will they possible announce their
engagement. Renzo tells him that it could be possibly soon. Rodolfo asks
Adriana if she will
not also congratulate Renzo and Astrid. Adriana tells them that she is happy
for them. Astrid tells Adriana that they will be happy together just like she
and Rodolfo. Renzo tells Adriana that he is happy to hear her kind words and
also tells her that Astrid is not the type of woman who would lie to him or
fake being in love with him. Adriana can only stare as Renzo's words hurt her
profoundly. With Astrid and
Adriana gone, Rodolfo tells Renzo that he has lost a lot of money in the
investments he made on the gold mines. Renzo tells him that he needs to take it
easy because better days will come. Rodolfo tells him that he hopes so because
otherwise he won't be able to pay him back the loan he gave him. Rodolfo tells
Renzo that he may need more time. Renzo tells Rodolfo that he doesn't like to
mix business and pleasure and that they can talk about it at another time. Isa
is talking with Adriana. She tells Adriana that she needs to tell her the truth
that Renzo hates her. Adriana, looking anguished, tells Isa that he doesn't
know they have a son. Isa tells Adriana that maybe it would be better that
Renzo never finds out that they have a son, otherwise his life would be in
danger. Adriana tells her that if he knew, then he would be able to protect his
son. Isa tells Adriana that if Farnesio finds out that Renzo knows about his
son, he would kill her child. The Regent Prince and Pedro are talking with the
Baron Lebron. The Prince is telling Pedro that he trusts Baron Lebron and that
he can help Pedro find the person he is looking for. Adriana, feeling
depressed, starts to walk away from the party and is followed by Renzo. He
calls out her name and she stops to acknowledge him. He asks her if something
is wrong and she tells him that it is nothing of his concern. Adriana starts to
turn away and Renzo reaches out to grab her arm to stop her. He tells her that
he needs to explain what happened. Adriana tells him that it is not necessary
for him to explain and that she understands that his hatred towards her has
probably erased all the love they once vowed to each other. Adriana walks away
leaving Renzo alone. Renzo, thinking to himself, says that even though he may
hate her, he truly loves her and will always love her because in his heart she
is the woman he can only love forever.
Astrid and Rodolfo are talking with each other and she is
happy and pleased. Astrid is telling Rodolfo that he helped her pressure Count
Minelli into
announcing their engagement. Rodolfo tells Astrid that he has kept his part of
the bargain and that the rest is up to her. Pedro is nearby and watches as
Rodolfo leaves Astrid alone then approaches her. Pedro tells Astrid that he has
not had an opportunity to be alone with her until now and has just heard that
she has managed to comprise Count Minelli. Astrid tells Pedro that she doesn't
expect him to interfere with her plans because his son Renzo has fallen for
her. Pedro tells Astrid that he hopes Renzo will realize the type of woman she
really is. Pedro asks Astrid when will she fulfill the demand he has asked her
to do. Astrid tells Pedro that after tonight, Isa will have her last name and turns
to leave Pedro.
Morning has risen and Isa walks into her
bedroom furious. She is mad and upset at the fact that Astrid has become the
fiancée of Count Minelli.
Isa swears to herself that Astrid will not marry Count Minelli even if she has
to kill her because she will be the Countess Minelli. Rodolfo is in Adriana's
room asking her why she wasn't courteous with Count Minelli at the party last
night. He tells her that they need to be in good terms with him. Adriana tells
Rodolfo that she won't pretend to be friendly with him. Rodolfo tells her that
she must be. Rodolfo asks Adriana why it bothered her so much when she heard
that Count Minelli was getting engaged with Astrid de Marnier. Adriana tells
Rodolfo that it was none of her business about their engagement. Rodolfo walks
up to Adriana and grabs her arm and asks her why was she so discourteous
towards them. Adriana breaks free of Rodolfo's grasp and tells him that he told
her a lot of terrible things during the party. Rodolfo tells her that she can make
it up to them tonight because he has arranged a dinner for them to celebrate
their engagement. Isa is in her room pacing the floor and talking with Dino.
She is still upset that Rodolfo has arranged a dinner party in Count Minelli's
honor. Dino tells Isa that his master wants to look good before Count Minelli
and is giving the party for him to celebrate his engagement with Astrid de
Marnier. Isa tells Dino that this engagement is messing up her plans to marry
him herself. Dino tells her that he never liked the idea or her plans. Dino
tells Isa that she shouldn't worry because he can get her a lot of money.
Adriana tells Rodolfo that
he better not count on her because she will not attend. Rodolfo laughs and
tells her that she will attend and that she will congratulate them since she
didn't do it last night. Adriana tells Rodolfo that she can't do what he asks
of her. He wants to know why. Adriana tells him that she despises Count
Minelli. Rodolfo tells her that he also despises her son and respects her son's
life. He also tells her that he expects that she also respect their marriage as
husband and wife. Renzo is holding little Pedro in
his arms. Pedro is telling him that Baron Lebron will help them find the
child's grandmother and when he finds her he will notify them at once. Renzo
tells Pedro that he has taken a special fondness for the child and will hate to
see him leave, but he will feel better once the child is returned to his mother
or grandmother. At that moment, a knock on the door is heard and Bernal opens to enter. He tells Renzo
that a message has arrived from Count Farnesio. Renzo places little Pedro in
the arms of Bernal as he reads the message. Renzo tells Pedro that Rodolfo has
arranged for an engagement dinner tonight. Adriana tells Petra that Rodolfo has
her in his power since he holds her son hostage. She is unable to do anything.
Petra tells Adriana that they have to find a way to break his power so that her
son's life is not in jeopardy. Petra tells Adriana that for now she should pretend
to obey him in everything in order for him to trust her. Adriana tells Petra
that if she fakes it then one day Rodolfo will allow her to see her son and
then she would know where he is and they could escape from him and go somewhere
far away. Petra tells Adriana that she would help her. Adriana tells Petra that
once they were far away she could tell Renzo about his son. Adriana tells Petra
that Renzo is her gypsy and that once he knows they have a son he could change
his way of hating her so much. Petra tells Adriana that if it is truly him,
then he can help her protect their son. Adriana asks Petra if she should tell
Renzo right away. Petra agrees that she should and to let him know that his son
could be in harms way if he doesn't protect him. Adriana tells Petra that
tonight she will tell Renzo the whole truth. End of Part 1
Start of Part 2 Renzo tells Pedro that he can't
accept his engagement with Astrid because she was his wife one time. Pedro
tells Renzo that she betrayed him and that she needs to pay for her crimes.
Renzo wants to know how far does he need to go. Pedro tells him until Astrid
gives herself away without
knowing their plans. Adriana tells Petra that she needs to be astute when she
approaches Renzo because several times before she has failed to tell him. Petra
asks Adriana if she gave her permission she would tell Renzo herself. Adriana
tells Petra that they
need to be cautious. At that moment, Isa walks into Adriana's room when she
hears Adriana telling Petra that tonight Count Minelli and Astrid de Marnier will be coming to
dinner to celebrate their engagement. Isa tells Adriana that she must find a
way to stop the dinner party. Isa asks Petra to leave. Adriana asks Isa what is
troubling her. Isa tells her that she must stop the dinner being given tonight.
Isa tells Adriana that they need to stop the engagement between Count Minelli
and Astrid. Adriana looks as Isa in a very strange manner. Astrid is in her room talking to herself. She says that Pedro will
suffer once again because she will become the new Countess Minelli. She hopes
that one day Pedro will come begging to her for him and his son. Astrid tells
herself that in order for her to get back at Pedro she might just have to become a
widow for the third time and then Pedro will suffer for the lose of his bastard
son. Isa tells Adriana that she needs to tell her something very personal. Isa
drops to her knees and begs Adriana to forgive her for what she is about to
tell her. Adriana is a little confused by Isa's action. Isa confesses to
Adriana that she is in love with Count Minelli. Adriana looks at Isa in total
surprise. With Isa gone, Adriana tells Petra that she can't believe that Isa is
in love with Renzo and how could she betray her like that. Petra tells Adriana
that she didn't want to tell her this news but under the circumstances she
feels that Adriana should know. Adriana asks Petra what she is referring to. Petra tells her that
a few nights ago Rodolfo went to visit Isa in her bedroom late one night and
didn't leave until the wee hours of the morning. Petra tells Adriana that she
thinks Rodolfo and Isa have been getting along for some time. Renzo, who is
preparing himself for the party, tells Pedro that he always has a hard time
when he is surrounded by his enemies. Pedro tells him that if he keeps company with Isa it will make
it less hard to act around the others. Night has
fallen and everyone is in attendance at the dinner. Rodolfo is sitting at the
head of the table while Adriana and Renzo sit to his right side leaving Astrid
and Isa to sit at his left side. Rodolfo tells Astrid that he wishes to toast
to her engagement. Renzo asks Adriana if she will also toast to his honor. Adriana picks up her
wine goblet and informs him that he is very lucky to have the Countess as his
fiancée. Renzo tells Adriana that she is right because Astrid will be a good
wife who will be faithful and love him always. Astrid tells Renzo that she has found new love
being with him. Renzo announces that he has some good news which he hasn't told
his fiancée yet. Isa wonders if the news is that good. Renzo informs everyone
that he can't wait to be married and would like for it to happen right away.
Adriana turns to look at him in dismay. Rodolfo is pleased to hear the news as
is Astrid. Isa is not happy. Pedro has gone to see Isolda at
her tavern. Isolda is telling Pedro that she didn't realize that he had gone to
see Astrid himself. She hopes that the meeting was good. Isolda asks Pedro if
Astrid was willing to do as he asked. Pedro tells her that she would do it.
Isolda asks how he
managed to get her to do it unless Astrid was offered a lot of money. Pedro tells Isolda that Astrid is very
ambitious. Isolda tells
him that since she is that way it is no wonder she has tried to conquer the
Count's love. Isolda tells Pedro that Astrid only wants to regain her power and
fortune using the young Count in the process ever since the older Minelli took
away her fortune. She tells him that he should avoid letting the young Count
get caught in her trap. At
the dinner party, Astrid is very pleased to have learned that Renzo wants to
marry her immediately. Rodolfo is happy to hear the news and congratulates
them. Adriana, who has taken the news rather hard, can only sit and listen as
they speak of the forthcoming wedding. Adriana tells Renzo that Astrid will
make him a happy man. Renzo tells her that after all that he has suffered he
hopes to be happy at last. Rodolfo reminds Adriana that she needed to tell
Renzo something and for her not to be timid in telling him. Renzo asks her what
it is she needs to tell him. Adriana tells Renzo that he is to forgive her for
not congratulating him at the Regent Prince's party last night. Adriana raises her wine goblet and makes a
toast to Renzo and Astrid. At that moment, Adriana takes the chance to pass a
note to Renzo under the table. Isa looks at them as if knowing that something
is going on between them. Renzo tells Adriana that he appreciates her kind
words. Isa notices when Renzo takes the note and hides it inside his coat.
Renzo comments to Adriana that even though her words were kind, she doesn't
look very good. Isa tells Renzo that it is because Adriana has been moved by
all the excitement and news. Isa mentions that his announcement to get married
right away was unexpected. Because of all the talk of Renzo's wedding plans,
Adriana begins to feel depressed and begs that the others excuse her because
she is not feeling well. Rodolfo is angry that Adriana is leaving him alone
with their dinner guests. Adriana tells them that she doesn't want to spoil
their evening and leaves. Renzo and Isa are left alone. Renzo tells Isa that he doesn't
understand how she can live with these people and lets her know that she is a
very sweet person. At that moment, Isa
fakes that she is cold and Renzo offers her his coat. She asks him if he won't
get cold and he tells her that sometimes the clothes bother him. Isa looks as
if something is bothering her. Renzo asks what is wrong. Isa tells him that she
overheard that between Rodolfo,
Adriana and Astrid they have planned something against him to ruin him. Isa
tells Renzo that it is possible his bride to be could want his misfortune.
Adriana is in her room talking with Aya
Petra. She is telling her that Renzo truly hates her as much as she loves him.
Petra tells her that she should have faith in him after he reads her letter.
Adriana tells her that if he doesn't react to her news about their son, then
she will know that she has lost him forever. Petra tells Adriana to keep the
faith and hope that once he learns the truth he will forgive her. Renzo,
along with Astrid by his
side, tells Rodolfo that due to Adriana's unfortunate departure they should end
the dinner and leave. Rodolfo tells him to please forgive his wife and
appreciates his understanding. Astrid tells Isa to return Renzo's coat. Before
she can answer, Renzo tells
Astrid that he doesn't need it and for Isa to keep it. Renzo leaves the room
with Rodolfo. Isa and Astrid are left alone. Astrid tells Isa to take off the coat. Isa tells
Astrid that Renzo gave it to her so that she could keep warm. Astrid is furious
with Isa. Isa tells Astrid that maybe she shouldn't be so confident in the love
of Count Minelli. Isa tells Astrid that what the Count needs is a young woman
who will be able to give him children not an older mature woman who won't be
able to bear him an heir. Astrid is offended by Isa's words and slaps Isa with her hand. Isa touches her cheek. Astrid tells her that
she will never be able to take away Count Minelli from her. Rodolfo orders his servant to tell his wife
that he wants to speak with her immediately in his study. In the convent hospital, Manina is
thinking to herself. She says that she can't send the letter to Adriana because
she will expose her and her son to Isa and Rodolfo. Adriana has gone to see
Rodolfo in his study and leaves the door open behind her. Rodolfo tells Adriana
that he wanted to reprimand her for her actions, but because of her beauty he
can't. Rodolfo goes to close the door while Adriana stands in the middle of the
room with her back to him. Rodolfo surprises Adriana by wrapping his arms
around her. Adriana tells him to let her go. Rodolfo tells her that tonight
will be the inevitable. Adriana struggles and manages to break free only to
have Rodolfo grab her arms and pull her back into another embrace. While
holding Adriana, Rodolfo tells Adriana that she belongs to him and that he
doesn't like her rejections. Adriana struggling from his embrace tells him that
he is disgusting. Rodolfo tells her that she can't continue to reject him
anymore. Rodolfo tries to caress Adriana and she tries to push him away. He
tells her that tonight she will finally be his and forces her down upon the
table holding her arms down. Adriana tells him that she accepted to marry him
but never accepted to be his woman. Rodolfo tells her that she belongs to him
and that he is crazy for her. Adriana tells Rodolfo to leave her alone because
she could never love him. Isa, alone in her room, is reading the note Adriana had given to Renzo
since she kept his coat. In the note, Adriana tells Renzo that they have a son
who needs his protection and for him to meet her at the cliffside the next day.
Isa throws the note down and is furious that Adriana has tried to tell Renzo about their son.
Isa tells herself that she will go and visit Renzo.
Rodolfo, who continues to force himself
upon Adriana, tells her that she will be his. Adriana continuing in her
struggle to get Rodolfo off of her pushes him and breaks free of his hold. In
the process, Rodolfo notices that the door to the secret passageway is open. He
wonders who dared to enter it. Rodolfo immediately begins to call Dino. Adriana
just stands there scared of what Rodolfo might do next. Rodolfo goes to the door, opens it and
yells Dino's name again. He turns around to see a frighten Adriana and orders
her to return to her room. Adriana immediately leaves. Rodolfo tells himself that
whoever has learned about his passageway will pay with their life. Pedro tells Renzo that he is sorry
for dragging him into his own desire for revenge. He realizes that Renzo had
his own problems to handle and little by little got him involved with more.
Renzo tells Pedro that he knew what he was getting into and that Pedro should
not feel that he forced him to do it. Pedro asks Renzo if he would have
preferred returning to the gypsy's as a free man. Renzo tells him that what
good would it have done him since both his parents are dead and that his heart
was destroyed from the betrayal of Adriana. Pedro tells him that maybe he would have
received the peace he wants so bad. Renzo tells him that he has been like a
father to him. Renzo lets Pedro know that he gave him the opportunity to be another person and
see what it is like to live a different lifestyle and he is grateful for
knowing him. Rodolfo asks Dino who tried to
access the secret passageway. Dino tells him that he doesn't know because as
soon as the party was over he went to speak with Isa in her bedroom. Rodolfo
asks Dino if he tried to impress Isa by showing her the secret passageway. Dino
tells him that he would
never do that because he hates the place. Rodolfo tells Dino no one else knows
about it and that he is the only person who knows the secret. Dino tells
Rodolfo that maybe he forget to close the door the last time he was inside.
Rodolfo tells him that he hasn't been inside the tunnels in years. Rodolfo
tells Dino that he will assure that no one opens the door again, but if he
finds out who accessed it then that person will get lost in the tunnels of no
return. Dino tells him that if he finds out who it was, he will tell him. It is morning and Isa has gone to visit Renzo at his palace. Renzo
tells her that he doesn't know how she can stand living with Rodolfo and Adriana. Isa tells him that
she heard Rodolfo and Adriana conspiring against him again. Renzo asks Isa if
there is anything new he should know. Isa tells Renzo that when the dinner ended
last night, she was on her way to her room when she heard voices. She tells him
that the voices were of people laughing and kissing. The voices were Rodolfo
and Adriana who were talking about how they can manipulate Renzo to do what
they want. Adriana was telling Rodolfo that she had given him a note saying
that she would have him begging on his hands and knees. Isa tells Renzo that
Adriana was very happy and laughing. Isa tells Renzo that the letter explained
how they would try to get Renzo to stop him from ruining them. Isa asks Renzo
what letter were they talking about. Renzo tells Isa that last night Adriana
gave him a note and he goes to the coat Isa returned to him to search for it.
Renzo pulls out the note as Isa watches him read it. Adriana is sleeping in her bedroom when Petra awakens her and tells
her that it is another beautiful day. Adriana sits up on her bed and tells
Petra that by now Renzo must have read her letter. Petra tells her that he must
be looking forward to their meeting since learning the truth from her note.
Adriana is excited and tells Petra that she will wear a beautiful gown for her
meeting with Renzo.
As Renzo is reading the note in which
Adriana tells him that they have a son, Isa looks at him and smiles because her
plan is working. Renzo shows Isa the letter and tells her that Adriana wrote to
him to tell him they have a son. Isa knows that she has planted the seed of
doubt in Renzo and that he will never believe that he and Adriana have a son.
She pretends to be shocked to learn about Adriana's lie. Isa tells him that if Adriana had a
child she would have it with her. Renzo tells Isa that Adriana is lying to him
again and that she is doing it to help Rodolfo. Rodolfo has gone to visit
Astrid. Astrid is surprised to see him. She asks about Adriana. Rodolfo tells
her that Adriana is fine. Astrid is furious that Adriana left the party early
and ruined her engagement dinner. She tells Rodolfo that Minelli was looking at
her all night. Rodolfo asks Astrid if she is jealous of Adriana. Rodolfo tells
Astrid that he admires all woman and mentions Isa's name. Astrid gets mad when she hears the name
of Isa. Rodolfo tells her that she doesn't need to be mad over Isa because soon
she will become the new Countess Minelli. Renzo is waiting
at the cliffside just as Adriana had requested in her note. Adriana approaches
and tells Renzo that she is happy he came and to forgive her for being late.
Adriana asks him if he read her note and he tells her that he did several
times. Adriana tells him that she wanted to tell him many times before but
couldn't. Adriana tells Renzo that they can't hate each other because they have
a reason to love another. They have a son. Renzo doesn't believe Adriana.
Adriana is happy to tell Renzo they have a son and that her son looks just like
him. She tells him that their son is in danger. Renzo asks to see his son and
why didn't she bring him with her. If they have a son where is he. Adriana
tells Renzo that Rodolfo has their son and gave him to Isa. Renzo tells Adriana
not to get Isa involved. Adriana tells Renzo that it is all a plan Rodolfo has to keep her
under his power. Rodolfo has their son and is manipulating her the way he
wants. Adriana notices that Renzo is not excited to learn the news about their
son. Adriana tells him that she can't believe how much he has changed ever
since he became a Count. He is not the same man she once knew. Isolda is travelling in a wagon on her way to Farnesio's castle when
she encounters Isa on horseback. Isa asks her why has she come to the Farnesio
castle. Isolda tells her that she is not there to see him but to see her.
Isolda tells Isa that she has always wanted to learn who her real mother is.
Isa looks at Isolda in a surprised manner. Isolda asks Isa if she still wants
to know and if so she will tell her. Adriana asks Renzo why doesn't he believe her that they
have a son. She wants to know who has planted the doubt in him. Renzo tells her
that he will not be taken for a fool after learning that they tried to get to
him by telling him he would be fooled by this new trickery. Renzo tells Adriana that if she thinks
that she can fool him again with the story of a son then she is wrong. Adriana
tries to tell Renzo that it is true, but realizes that he doesn't want to
believe her. Renzo tells her that she better stop lying to him.
Isolda and Isa have gone to her tavern
to continue their conversation about who is Isa's mother. Isa is curious to
learn and know who her mother is. Isolda tells Isa that her mother is of
nobility like the Farnesio's and Astolfi's. Isa is surprised to hear that her
mother is an aristocrat. Astrid and Violeta are talking in barnyard. Astrid is
telling Violeta that she has no choice but to do what Pedro Minelli has asked
her to do. Violeta asks Astrid why will she recognize a child that she never
really cared for. Isolda tells Isa that even though her mother is of nobility
it would be better that no one knows the truth to avoid a scandal. Isa, who is
frustrated, asks Isolda who this woman is. Adriana tells Petra that she can't understand Renzo's
reaction to learning the truth. She tells her that she is starting to feel pity
and hate towards Renzo. Petra tells her that it is only natural that she went
to see him with such high hopes. Adriana tells her that she can't understand
why he doesn't believe they have a son. Adriana, feeling hurt, tells Petra that
she kept quiet about who was Humberto's murderer and that she suspected it was Renzo who killed
her brother. She should have told the authorities right away, but kept quiet.
Petra tells her that she can' be sure unless she has proof that he did commit
the crime. Petra tells her that she is angry with Renzo for not believing her.
Adriana tells her that she doesn't know how to feel anymore. It is night and Isolda escorts Isa to the same barnyard where Astrid
and Violeta are waiting. Isolda, holding a lantern, walks into the barnyard
followed by Isa. Isolda looks around and spots them sitting in a corner. Isolda
tells Isa that she is there waiting. Isa grabs the lantern from Isolda and
walks towards the corner of the barnyard and holds the lantern up to see who
her mother is. Astrid, who has a hood covering her head, removes it to reveal
herself. Isa looks and sees that it is Astrid and is shocked. The lantern
starts to shake in her hands. Isa can't believe that Astrid is her mother.
Astrid starts to insult Isa. Isolda tells Astrid that she wanted to ensure
there was discretion in their meeting and to avoid tempting Isa. Isolda grabs
the lantern from Isa's hand and places it on a wooden shelf. Isolda orders Violeta to follow her in
order to leave Astrid and Isa alone to talk. Astrid tells Isa know that she
knows the truth they can talk to each other with more familiarity. Isa is
outraged and finds it hard to believe that Astrid is her mother. She calls
Astrid a fox. Astrid tells Isa that she inherited all of her same qualities.
Isa wants to know what benefits is Astrid getting out of recognizing her has
her daughter. Astrid tells
her that if she doesn't follow orders then she will deny having Isa as her
daughter. Isa tries to leave but Astrid stops her. Astrid tells her that her
one condition in order for Isa to receive her last name would be that Isa must
stop trying to conquer Count Minelli. Isa tells Astrid that Count Minelli interests her a lot and
that she will not stop her quest to conquer him. Astrid threatens Isa by
telling her that what would Count Minelli do if he were to find out that she
was a courtesan. Isa tells Astrid that Rodolfo has converted her into a queen
while she has been living in his castle and that he is a very passionate man. Adriana follows Rodolfo into his study asking him if he would permit
her to see her son. She tells him that if she sees her son and can prove that
he is ok, then Rodolfo can do with her anything that he wants. The information
gets Rodolfo's attention. Rodolfo tells her that they will talk about it later
and for her to retire to her room because she looks fatigued. Adriana tells him
that she won't wait any longer to see her son and if not then she is willing to
go see the Captain of the authorities and make a scandal about the
disappearance of her son. Rodolfo tells her that it won't be necessary. Astrid is furious to learn that
Isa has taken Rodolfo to bed. Isa tells her Rodolfo is fascinated with her
youth and vigorousness. Isa tells Astrid that he speaks of how old Astrid has gotten and
that he loves her youthful body. Isa tells Astrid that she will do the same
with Minelli whether
Astrid recognizes her or not. Rodolfo tells Adriana that he
swears by his Uncle Farnesio that she will see her son. Adriana looks at the
painting and repeats his name. Adriana then asks Rodolfo why does his Uncle
have the same resemblance to Count Minelli. Rodolfo looks at Adriana surprised
at her perception. Renzo is talking with Pedro and
asking him for what purposes did Rodolfo have to lock up his Uncle and his
father in the passageway. Pedro tells Renzo that maybe there must be a last
will and testament of Clement Farnesio in which it reveals all the clues. Renzo
repeats the words last will and testament to Pedro. Astrid, who is furious, tells Isa
that instead of recognizing Isa has her daughter she will do everything in her
power to destroy her and let the whole world know that she is a prostitute. Isa
launches herself at Astrid and the two of them start to fight. During the
fight, the two of them bump into the lantern and knock it on the floor. As the
lantern breaks a fire gets started. Isa notices the fire and pushes Astrid
against the wall where she
falls knocking the breath out of her. The fire starts to spread and surrounds
Astrid. Isa, who has moved to a safer area sees Astrid being engulfed with
flames. Astrid starts to cry out for help and all Isa can do is look and laugh.

Adriana and Rodolfo are sitting at the dinner table
and she is asking him how will she know if he will promise to let her see her
son. As Aya Petra looks on, she wants to know what
guarantees will she have to know that her son is safe and that Rodolfo hasn't
done something to harm him. Rodolfo
tells her that he wouldn't stoop so low to harm a child. He tells Adriana that he couldn't make her
bastard son disappear knowing how much the child meant to Adriana. Isa, seeing
Astrid surrounded by the fire, fakes like she is horrified and covers her face
with charcoal to pretend that she has tried to help Astrid. She starts screaming Isolda's name to help her and runs into the
tavern. Isolda and the tavern patrons
see Isa come in with her face all dirty and screaming that there is a
fire. She tells Isolda and the others
that she barely was able to escape the flames, but that the Countess Astrid de
Marnier was caught in the fire. Upon
hearing the news of Astrid, Orlando immediately goes to help her followed by
Claudio and other men. When everyone leaves the tavern Isa is left
alone. She thinks to herself that her
illusion of her mother didn't last very long when she realized who her real
mother was. Astrid, who is trying to escape
the fire, walks around when her coat catches on fire. She immediately falls to the ground. At that moment, Orlando sees her and covers her up with a
blanket. Isolda, Claudio and Violeta
follow him and see that Astrid has been badly injured by the fire. With a look of horror on their faces, it is
apparent that Astrid has suffered terrible burn wounds. Isolda asks Astrid what happened in the
barnyard, was it an accident or something else. Astrid, with her face all bandaged up and only her left eye
exposed, tells Isolda
that it doesn't matter what happened.
Isolda tells Astrid that she will be leaving for Villa Florencia with
Orlando and that soon she will return to see her again. She tells her that Violeta will stay to
watch over her. Astrid tells Isolda not
to mention her accident to anyone. Isolda tells
her that Isa was left with a bad reaction to what happened, but Astrid tells
her that she could care less what Isa thinks.
She tells Isolda to leave.
Morning has risen and
Adriana is looking for someone when she runs into Rodolfo. He tells her Good Morning and wonders what
is troubling her. Adriana tells him
that she has been looking for Isa since last night and can't find her. Rodolfo informs Adriana that Isa arrived late last night and has
left very early this morning. Adriana
tells him that she only wants Isa to give her information about her son. Rodolfo refers to Adriana's son as the bastard and Adriana takes
offense and tries to slap him only to be stopped by Rodolfo. Rodolfo tells Adriana that maybe Isa left early to meet with her
son.
Isa has gone to visit Count Minelli at his
palace. Isa tells Renzo that she was
worried about his and Adriana's encounter at the cliffside. Renzo tells Isa that he went to the appointment and for her not to
worry because he told Adriana that she wouldn't get to him with her lies. He wonders how Adriana thought she could get
him to believe her once again. Isa
tells him that a woman can be capable of doing many things to get to a
man. Renzo offers Isa some coffee and
she asks him if he truly is going to marry Astrid de Marnier. Renzo looks as if to ponder the question. Pedro has gone to Isolda's tavern to see her. Isolda approaches him and he is happy to see
her. He asks Isolda if Isa and Astrid
had a chance to meet one another and wanted to know what was the outcome of the
meeting. Isolda tells Pedro that a
terrible disgrace has occurred leaving Pedro with a questioning look on his
face. Adriana has gone to Count Minelli's palace. The three of them are in Renzo's study. Isa asks Adriana what she is doing at the
palace. Adriana asks her the same question. Renzo tells Adriana that Isa is his invited
guest. Adriana tells Renzo that she
needs to speak with him alone. Renzo
tells her that Isa is not leaving and goes to sit down behind his desk and asks
what she wants to talk about. Adriana
tells him that it is about
her son, their son. She tells him that
they need to talk about their son and since Isa is present maybe she won't lie
about the fact that a child does exist.
Renzo stands up from his chair.
Isa stares at Adriana as if caught off guard. Isa pretends to be offended and shocked. She tells Adriana how could she lie about
such a thing like that. Adriana, who is
loosing her patience, tells Isa that Isa knows Adriana is telling the truth. Isa tells her that she can't pretend to
sustain that fact. She asks Adriana why
she is trying to tell him that they have a son. Isa tells Adriana that if Rodolfo were to find out he would kill
Count Minelli. Adriana, already upset
that Isa has made her look like a fool, tells her that she is the one who is
lying. Renzo steps in and tells Adriana
to stop offending Isa in that manner. Adriana tells
him that he has to listen to her. Renzo
tells Adriana that he is Count Minelli and for her not to forget it. Adriana tells him that she hopes he will
never regret what he has told her.
Adriana turns and leaves. Isa
watches as Adriana leaves and is pleased to see that Renzo didn't believe in her once
again. Isolda tells Pedro that she has never seen such a
horrible thing happen to anyone before.
She tells him that Astrid was badly burned by the fire. Pedro is shocked to hear the news as Isolda
tells him that it has been a terrible tragedy. At the
hospital convent, Manina is sitting down in a chair staring out a window
looking at the stars. Maria approaches
her and asks her if she needs some help in returning to her bed. Manina tells her that she wants to stay a
while longer and see more of the stars.
She tells Maria that she is able to read what the stars can tell her and
knows that her little Pedro is fine and safe in the castle she left him at, but
at the same time there is a young man who lives there that is suffering very
much. Renzo is
crouched down near the bassinet where little Pedro is laying down. He looks at the child and asks himself how
could Adriana lie to
him about having a son. Renzo stares at
little Pedro with warmth in his eyes and tells him that he would give his
entire life if only Adriana's
words were true. He would love to have
a son as good looking at this child and born out of the love they once shared. Rodolfo and Dino are in his study and he is telling Dino that he has
no money left. He asks Dino that the
peasants who live on his land should pay him because they must have some value
he can possess. Dino asks him if he
wants the peasants to pay him money. Rodolfo tells
him that he is to get money from them any which way he can. Isa is in
Adriana's bedroom warning her that she better not get in her way or else
Adriana will be sorry. Adriana tells
Isa that she is disappointed in Isa because she thought Isa was like a sister
to her. Isa laughs at the thought of
Adriana seeing her as a sister. Isa
warns Adriana to stay away
from Renzo or else she will take it out against her son. Isa reminds Adriana that she has her son in
her possession. Adriana sheds a
tear. Isa tells Adriana that Count
Minelli or Renzo the gypsy will be hers.
Adriana just stares at Isa.
Renzo and Pedro are
talking in his study. Renzo is telling
Pedro that Isa refused to participate in the lie Adriana was telling him about
having a son. Pedro tells him that Isa
acted accordingly. At that moment,
Pedro grabs his chest and places his hand over his heart as if in pain. Renzo gets up from his chair and asks Pedro
if he is ok and realizes that he's not and tells him that he will help him to
his bedroom so that he can rest. Adriana tells Isa that Renzo deserves to know that they have a son and
she is going to prove it to him. Isa
tells Adriana that if she continues to persist in wanting to tell him then it
will be her fault if he dies. Adriana
asks Isa what she is talking about. Isa
threatens Adriana by
telling her that she is willing to tell Rodolfo that Count Minelli is really
Renzo the gypsy. Adriana is shocked,
but she tells Isa that
she promises not to go near Renzo again.
Isa tells her that she can't trust Adriana's word. Adriana tells her that she will promise to
keep her word. Adriana offers Isa a
deal. She tells her that if Isa gives
her back her son, she will leave forever and go where no one can find her. Isa tells her that she is not stupid. She tells Adriana that her son is the
guarantee that Adriana will fulfill her promise. She tells her that she won't give her back her son until she has
become the new Countess Minelli.
Renzo is in his room drinking alone and
asking himself why Adriana betrayed their love, married another and pretends
they have a son. He gets mad and throws
the cup. He tells himself that he won't
believe in her again. In the hospital convent, Manina is
telling Maria that she needs her help in getting back to the castle where she
left the child so that she can return him to its mother. Maria asks which child she is talking about. Manina tells her it is the child she
considers like her own grandchild and that she needs to make sure the child is
returned to his mother. Renzo, in his bedroom, walks up the bassinet where little Pedro is
laying and wonders why the child was separated from his mother. He stares at the child and tells him that
his presence has brought him joy into his life. Renzo tells little Pedro that he will do everything he can to get
him and his mother reunited again.
It is morning and Dino, along with some
of Farnesio's soldiers, have gone to the peasants camp site to follow the
orders of his master. He sees an old
man and child sitting at a table. Dino
grabs the child and the old man asks him why is he taking his grandson. Dino tells the old man that he has come to
collect money and for them to find all the coins they have or else he won't be
seeing his grandson again. A woman
comes out from inside a house and tells Dino to have pity on them. The soldiers take several of the children
away while their parents scream not to take their children away from them. Dino goes back to Rodolfo to inform him that
he has started to do his bidding.
Rodolfo is pleased to hear that Dino has followed his orders and tells
him that he needs Dino to do him a favor.
Dino asks him what does he need.
Rodolfo tells him that he needs for Dino to find him a child that looks
about the same age, sex and appearance like Adriana's child. He tells him that he doesn't care what he
needs to do just as long as he brings him back a child with the same
characteristics. Rodolfo feels that
since so much times has gone by, he can pass off another child as Adriana's
son. Dino tells Rodolfo that he will find a child that
looks like the gypsy. Rodolfo tells him
that he doesn't think his remark was funny and orders him to find a child so that
he can continue to manipulate Adriana and keep her under control. Adriana tells
Petra that she is sorry that she didn't understand Petra's intuition about
Isa. Now she realizes that she should
never have trusted her. Adriana tells
her that Isa never loved her brother and pretended to be her friend, but in
reality she did it to only satisfy her own ambitions. Petra is disgusted to hear what Adriana has told her. Adriana tells her that Isa took pleasure in
telling her all that she planned to do.
Adriana tells her that unfortunately Isa has control over her since she
holds her son hostage. Petra tells her
that Isa doesn't
realize that all the bad things one does, sooner or later she will pay. Petra tells Adriana that Isa better not lay
a hand on her son or else she will learn what the old woman is capable of. Isa and
Rodolfo are in his study and she is pouring them a goblet of wine to
drink. Rodolfo is telling her that she
has changed her state of mind and looks rather happy. Isa tells Rodolfo that she is happy because she has managed to
get out of her way one of her competitors.
Rodolfo looks surprised and asks her if she is talking seriously. Isa confirms and tells him that of
course. Isa tells Rodolfo that now her destiny has changed
because the distinguished Countess Astrid de Marnier suffered an accident. Rodolfo looks at her confused and can't
believe that Astrid suffered an accident. Renzo and
Bernal are in the livingroom of the Minelli castle. Renzo is holding little Pedro while Bernal watches them. Bernal tells Renzo that when little Pedro leaves he
will miss him very much. Renzo tells
Bernal that the nameless child has become like a son to him. Renzo tenderly gives little Pedro a kiss. Rodolfo and Dino are in his study and they are joined by Jonas. Jonas is serving himself some wine. Rodolfo is telling him that the last time he
was in his palace he warned him that he never wanted to see him on his property
again. Jonas tells him that he didn't
want to bother him again, but that something has come up that he might be
interested in. Rodolfo asks him what
could it be. Jonas reminds Rodolfo that the gypsy's death was
not accidental since he ordered the death.
Rodolfo tells him that no one is to know the truth. Rodolfo reminds Jonas that the gypsy's body should be at the
bottom of the ocean. Jonas agrees with
him. Jonas tells him that a lot of
things are happening on the island because the Regent Prince has sent a
committee of ambassadors to look into the manner in which the prisoners are
being treated. Jonas tells Rodolfo that
these ambassadors have been asking a lot of questions and they could possible
get a lead as to what happened with the gypsy.
Rodolfo doesn't look to happy with the news. Isolda is in her tavern drinking alone when Isa approaches her and
asks Isolda where she took her mother.
Isa pretends to be very worried over the fact that she doesn't know what
happened to her. Isa tells her that she
wants to say she is sorry to her mother for what she told her. Isolda tells Isa that Astrid doesn't want to
see anyone. Isa tells her that she
can't wait. She was very cruel to her
and she is sure that her mother needs her.
Isolda is very surprised to see Isa is concerned.
Jonas is walking out of the study to leave as Dino follows him. Dino stops him and tells him that his master is looking for a male child. Jonas asks him why. Dino tells him that it is not important. Dino tells him that if he knows of a way to steal a male child with light eyes and looks like the gypsy. Jonas shows Dino the sign of money. On the Farnesio palace grounds, Adriana has disembarked from the carriage in which she and Petra were riding in. She waves to Petra as the coachmen drives off. She senses a rider at a distance and hides behind a tall tree. She is frightened to realize the rider is Jonas. She wonders why Jonas has come to see Rodolfo. She asks herself is Rodolfo knows the truth that Count Minelli and Renzo are the same person. She thinks that maybe if Jonas has come to see Rodolfo that maybe Renzo's life is now in jeopardy and she must try to warn him. Renzo cradling little Pedro in his arms, tells Bernal that he plans on inviting Isa to Pedro's anniversary. Renzo tells Bernal that Isa has earned his trust and friendship. Bernal asks Renzo if maybe he doesn't have a certain affection for her also. Bernal mentions that maybe it wouldn't be proper if only Isa Valenti were invited because then it would cause a lot of suspicion if she came alone. Renzo tells him that in order to avoid that bad things are said about Isa, he would have to invite Count Farnesio and his wife also. Bernal tells him that it would be better if he did. Astrid has been taken to the convent hospital to recuperate from her burn wounds. A nun is talking with Violeta. Violeta asks the nun when will her mistress get better. The nun tells her that only time will heal her wounds. The nun tells Violeta that she needs to get some rest too and escorts her out of Astrid's room. As soon as Violeta and the nun leave the room, Isa turns the corner and almost bumps into them but hides. Neither the nun or Violeta notice that she has come to see Astrid. As soon as Isa realizes that no one is watching, she immediately walks into the room where Astrid is recovering. Astrid is sitting up with her eyes closed and seems to be sleeping. Isa walks up to her bed and tells her that she hopes Astrid dies. Upon hearing a voice, Astrid opens her eyes. Isa warns Astrid that she better forget about Count Minelli because she will be the one to marry him. Astrid looks horrified. Adriana has returned to the Minelli castle and is waiting in the livingroom when Renzo approaches her to ask why she has come back again. Adriana begs with Renzo to listen to her and forget the attitude he has towards her. He tells her that he can't treat his enemies any other way. Adriana tells him that she has come to warn him. Renzo asks her what does he need to be warned about. Adriana tells him that she saw Jonas, the foreman from the island of the condemned at the Farnesio castle in the afternoon. She tells him that she thinks Jonas has spoken with Rodolfo and that it is of major concern to be careful. Adriana tells him that she thinks Rodolfo is planning his death. Isa is telling Astrid that it is a shame that she has suffered a terrible accident. She tells her not to worry about her fiancé Count Minelli because she will take care in consoling him. Astrid tells Isa that she will never recognize her as her daughter and that Count Minelli will never marry a simple courtesan. At that moment, Pedro barely opens the door to Astrid's room and stops when he overhears the conversation that Isa is having with Astrid. Isa mocks Astrid and tells her that she knows that Count Minelli is a simple gypsy who escaped from the island of the condemned. Isa tells her that he is an imposter and that she only wants his fortune. Astrid can't believe what Isa is telling her. Isa tells Astrid that she can tell her the complete story that his real name is Renzo and that he is totally in love with Adriana de Astolfi. Isa tells Astrid that she tells Renzo anything she wants and he blames Adriana for everything that happens. Pedro, who has been listening behind the partially opened door is shocked to hear Isa confess all that she has done and grabs his chest. Isa tells Astrid that Renzo is so stupid that he doesn't know that she helped Rodolfo Farnesio send him to the island of the condemned. She confesses to Astrid that she was the one who placed the ring in Renzo's pocket to blame him for the death of Count Daniel Discarpia. Astrid tells Isa that maybe she can fool Adriana, the gypsy and all the others, but not Pedro who will end up knowing who she really is. Isa wonders why Astrid mentions the old fools name. Isa tells her that she knows that he too probably escaped from the island of the condemned, but she has been able to manipulate him the way she wants to because she has him eating out of the palm of her hands. Pedro thinking to himself can't believe what he has heard and realizes that he has been taken for a fool by Isa. He slowly closes the door to leave. Renzo grabs Adriana and tells her to stop lying to him. Adriana tells him that she is telling him the truth because she knows that Jonas can kill him. Renzo tells her that he is aware of what Jonas is capable of doing. Renzo lets Adriana go and walks away from her. Adriana asks him if he is going to be careful and alert if Rodolfo has schemed to try to kill him. Renzo tells her that she betrayed him on the island of the condemned and that he doesn't know why she has come to warn him about Jonas. Renzo tells her that her presence is bothering him and that maybe he should go to Rodolfo and tell him that his wife is betraying him by coming to see him and warning him.
