EPISODE #3 / 4

Start with the card reading – ‘your life and his are interwoven and when he finds his past you will know who you are’ – The cards have spoken

Abue tells tio about firing the PI and he doubts the missing girl is alive but she is sure.
Turns out Ramiro was besties w/Santiago’s alter ego.

Sole and the card reader Chana argue about all the secrets Sole is keeping. Chana doesn’t look like she believes all Sole has lied about is being a single mother instead of a widow.

Free Spirit daydreams about Santiago till her firmly friendzoned buddy interrupts to tell her he loves her. She tries to talk him out of it and into just being friends but he gets unpleasantly grabby (and freaks me out) and demands to know if there’s someone else. Given her recent daydreams I’m thinking she’s lying when she says there isn’t.

Bad Seed tries to come on to Ramiro (as a reflex?) but he’s not interested, he only wants to talk to Mopey and sees through Bad Seed. He blames her for his friend’s death, and she tries to make him feel bad about driving his ex-fiancee to suicide. 

We get to see Bad Seed’s memory of the aftermath of Ramiro’s breakup. Turns out she hired Gina to keep Ramiro away from her sister, Gina really did fall in love w/him though and Bad Seed convinced her to fake a suicide attempt to emotionally blackmail him into getting back with her.

Back in the present, Bad Seed gives Ramiro and black tie as a gift but when she asks for her gift he says he got her an excellent bro in law. He’s determined to propose to her sister and her face shows clearly just how not thrilled she is. Also Ramiro is the new detective on the find her missing sis case and that doesn’t help her mood any. She fakes nice while trying to dissuade him, but he will not be dissuaded.
Mopey actually smiles! ( if she keeps this up I may need a new name for her) 

She has friends at some sort of therapy/recovery center and hangs out w/various handi-capable youths, helping out. (guess they didn’t want us thinking all she did was cry) She just loves working at the foundation and is a real do-gooder and they love and appreciate her. She remembers the accident (and that Bad Seed caused it so why is she so nice to her?) and starts crying again, oh dear.

Santiago catches up to Free Spirit and tries his I dreamed of you line on her again. She pretends not to care about that or that he’s leaving tomorrow, but can’t stop smiling. He can’t understand how she can pretend not to know him or care when she looks at him like she really wants him to kiss her, and he does! She’s getting into it and her unrequited love friend sees them. (uh oh) 

Finally she breaks away and picks up her bruised shopping to leave but Santiago is still convinced she’s lying about knowing him and feeling nothing for him and he’s gonna kiss her into submission. When he tries she gives him the slap she warned him to expect, reminds him he’s married and says despite all the feelings he makes her feel and the shaking up he’s doing to her world she won’t waste her time on him. She leaves her wallet behind though and she does have documents and he now knows her name and address.

Meet cute between Bad Seed and Pedro Moreno – she steals his umbrella on her way to visit tio making him get all wet just before an important meeting. Tio meanwhile is making lame excuses to girlfriend Jenny about having too much work to spend time w/her. Bad seed wants a job in his office – she’s bored and lonely, poor her. (well, that’s an excellent reason to give someone a job) She gets what she wants por supuesto.

(oh hey the entrada has the character names, I should pay attention!)
Ramiro and dad argue again this time over Ramiro’s upcoming investigation, ‘cause dad thinks that girl is surely dead.

Bad Seed and tio discuss the investigation too. Bad Seed claims Marcelo lied to Abue about finding info on her sis to keep Abue from falling deeper into depression, she says she was there and he made it all up.

Hey! Here’s Pedro Moreno again(I like him) his character is Inaki. Turns out his important meeting was w/ tio. Inaki tries to have a job interview while Bad Seed loudly plays with the pens on tio’s desk.
Free Spirit and a bunch of other silk dancers/acrobats rehearse. Her two friends are acrobats too!
Apparently she’s awesome and girl friend is distracted, and they got a big job/gig coming up yay.

Bad Seed is totes into the whole playboy thing her tio has going on, but then he tells her he’s thinking of actually settling down w/Jenny and proposing at a romantic dinner tonight and she has to pretend to be happy for him

Santiago goes to Free Spirit’s house to return her wallet and Sole remembers the last time he was there he threatened her with jail time. He notices her shock and asks if she recognizes him. She lies of course and tries to get rid of him quick, she about breaks down when he says he’s there to see AL. 

She’s really surprised he’s calling himself Santiago. He notices her squirrelly behavior and asks about it, she’s just trying to get rid of him but he wants to wait for Free Spirit to come home. He tells his story and asks why Sole was so surprised to see him. She lies and denies and tells him to leave; her house, the town, and her daughter alone. He does but warns her he’ll find out everything they’re hiding.

Free Spirit wants to celebrate the news about their big gig w/her two best buds but they beg off, Orlando is doing some heavy moping and her girl friend can’t cheer him up
Tio’s dinner w/Jenny is ruined by the arrival of his other lover.

Ramiro holds Mopey’s hand and looks deeply into her eyes and professes his love, again. He wants her to say she loves him too, but she tries to claim it’s a sisterly love. He doesn’t believe her, he’s patient though and can wait till she’s ready to tell him too.

Sole gives Free Spirit her wallet back and tells her about Santiago returning it, then asks if the memory loss story is real. Telling Sole his story reminds Free Spirit of her flashback and she asks her mom if she ever almost drowned when she was little. Scared look from Sole.

Ramiro remembers telling Marcelo his suspicions that his ex-fiancee was murdered. Marcelo gives him a satchel to keep safe. Back in the present Ramiro opens the satchel and finds a map of Santa Cecilia and a name Sofia Hernandez

Sole tells Free Spirit you fell in the river when you were about four and it was waay scary she looks so scared about it still that Free spirit tells her about her upcoming show in Santa Cecilia to cheer her up. It doesn’t work though, Sole flashes back to her first daughter’s funeral and tells the new daughter she can’t go there and calls her Sofia. 

Free Spirit has never heard the name before and asks about her, but all Sole will say is Sofia was a sweet girl, a neighbor’s daughter in Santa Cecilia who died of gas poisoning while her mom was at work. Free Spirit doesn’t see what that has to do w/her and why it should stop her going. Sole gives her the ‘cause I said so and goes off to cry in bed.

Free Spirit won’t let it go though and tries later to talk her into letting her go to no avail.
That night Sole’s conscience won’t let her sleep and she remembers Marcelo saying she kidnapped AL
Mopey confides to her friend at the foundation about Ramiro’s love and her love for him and friend tells her to seize the day and forget about her handicap.

Ramiro and dad discuss the investigation calmly.
Tio tells Bad Seed about the dinner disaster and get acts sympathetic and throws suspicion on his secretary who is supposedly in love w/him. On her way out she blows past friendly Inaki.
Ramiro tracks Mopey down at the foundation to say goodbye, he’s investigating just for her, and she gets nervous and smiley.

Later Ramiro stops along the road to fill up his gas tank and if he’d just turn around he’d see his dead friend Marcelo getting on a bus, but he doesn’t of course.
Dinner time – Bad Seed shares her job news and manages to insult Mopey who is gracious about it and doesn’t cry at all.

Free Spirit finds a note from Santiago in her wallet saying he’ll be back nxt wkend and to dream of him like he will be of her and gets happy chills
Meanwhile Santiago worries to madrina that he really does have a wife out there somewhere and maybe even kids, but she asks why wouldn’t they look for you? – maybe they didn’t want me back, who knows what kind of person I was before, but she says goodness isn’t in the memories, its in yr soul and I know yr a good man.

Bad Seed gets a scolding from Abue and has to bring up some crocodile tears – poor me I was neglected while my sis was losing her leg.

Later Bad Seed (What the HELL is she wearing?!? Is that a shirt? Overalls?w/cutouts?? Sorry, got distracted) meets w/ Jenny and she pretends to be a good friend.
Tio questions his secretary, did she tell anyone about his date yesterday? Of course not.
Ramiro walks around showing extras pictures of AL and asking questions
Mopey and Abue share their belief the third sis is alive.

Free Spirit daydreams about Santiago.
Ramiro remembers getting the bad news about his fiancée being a con from Marcelo and her grandad.
Bad Seed and her weird overalls meet w/tio’s other squeeze and discuss ruining his dinner w/Jenny
Guy friend chews out Free Spirit for kissing Santiago, just after she told him there was nobody she loved. (dude its none of yr business, she’s not into you that way, move on, it doesn’t matter who she kisses, its not going to be you) 

They shut Maribel out of the loop so Free Spirit can tell Orlando Santiago’s life history and he can try to convince her not to trust Santiago.
Santiago drives cab and moons over Free Spirit.
Tio begs Jenny for another chance.

Inaki buys clothes instead of paying his rent and has a roomie who stands on his head.
Orlando tries to get on Sole’s good side so he can convince her to let her adult daughter go on their out of town trip. Also promises to keep Santiago away from her daughter.

Ok so Santiago’s madrina has a circus renting from her and it just happens that Inaki is the son of the head carny. Papa is proud of Inaki for graduating and making good and assures everyone he’ll pay back the money he borrowed. Santiago confides in Inaki about meeting the woman of his dreams
Bad Seed comes home from her date still wearing that thing, and is told tio and Jenny are back together. Whoopee.

Ramiro calls for Mopey and Bad Seed answers the phone and tries to pump him for info on what he’s found but he won’t tell her anything and he’ll call back for Mopey tomorrow.
