MONDAY UPDATE ON TIMELESS LOVE EPISODE 101
Selene spills her guts to Jero. Rafael was the father of Berta's baby. Jero's head is spinning. Selene says that Rafa and his hacienda weren't enough for Berta. Besides, Fina forced Berta to break it off with Rafa. It was her idea that Berta should sleep with Matias to make it look like the baby was his. Then Berta said the baby was Jero's because she was jealous that he chose Nata over her.
Poor Jero can hardly keep up with this information dump. He's going to have to start taking notes soon. Selene thinks it's pretty simple. Berta killed two birds with one stone. With one lie, she made both Nata and Jero's lives miserable.
Manuela is worried sick over Matilde. Her heart tells her that Mati might be in the town where Lazaro and Mati grew up as children. Laz begins the search party anew.
Meanwhile, Matilde wanders the countryside with a killer headache. Suddenly, she passes out near a dirt road.
Gonzo calls Nata to give her the good news about Blanca going to jail. Honorio will be free that very day. Nata is overjoyed that their ordeal is over; now she and Berta can go home! Gonzo is confused. Berta is at the hacienda? Gonzo never sent her there.
Jero asks Selene why he should trust what she says. Sele can only give her word that it's the truth. She is spilling all of Berta's secrets because Berta is sleeping with her galan Agustin. Jero was sure that Nata was Augie's lover. No way, says Sele. She knows that Berta and Augie are carrying on together behind Nata's back. Sele knows how the pair of them operate.
Nata moves on from her confusion about Berta. She's just happy to have heard good news from home. (Let's face it, the Monterrubios aren't know for their joyous tidings lately). Gonzo asks how she fared at the hacienda. Nata was fine but home is home. They can't wait to see each other again.
Jero grills Selene for more details. There is no way she will repeat what she told him to anyone else. She'll deny having said anything. Sele thought he needed to know what kind of person Berta really is. She tells Jero to ask Marina about Roberta's miscarriage. Before leaving, Selene says that whatever bad blood there is between Nata and Berta...Nata did not deserve to be tormented.
Matias and Adriana help Constanza prepare for Honorio's welcome home party. Adri is pleased to see Connie so excited about Hon. Mat asks Adri how her talk with Chema went; he can tell she is not telling him something.
Nata gives both Berta and Augie the cold shoulder. She asks them why they are lying to her. "Is there something you two have to tell me?"
Jero broods over this new-found information. What sticks in his mind to most is what Selene said about Fina. "It could have been her." Jero thinks. "It could have been Fina who shot Rafael." (Felicidades, Jero, you are barking up the right tree for once!)
Nata presses Augie and Berta for the truth. Gonzo did not send Berta to stay at the hacienda. Augie admits that he lied; he invited Berta because Fina asked him too. Nata still isn't buying it. Berta swears that Fina made Augie take her in. Nata softens slightly. Berta asks Nata what her plans are now that she can return home. Nata doesn't know. She's still giving Berta the cold shoulder.
Manuela tells Marina (who is Tatariffic as always) that Jero returned to Mexico. Marina had no idea.
Adriana comes out with it; she kissed Chema. They were in the house alone. Matias is upset that Adri didn't tell him about it earlier. He flips a chair over like a child and stomps out of the house.
Lazaro and Carlos are en route to where they think Matilde might have gone. Carlos cries that he might die if they don't find Mati. Fortunately, a kindly family has found an unconscious Matilde and brought her to safety in their home. A woman tends to Mati's wounds and tries to make her comfortable.
Chema visits Honorio in jail. He has something important to tell him about Connie. Hmm.
Regina accompanies Adriana at physical therapy. She will have to walk with a cane but her leg will get stronger in time. Adri asks Regi for love advice. "Is is possible to love two men at the same time?" Regi thinks a person always knows who his or her true love really is. Adri is pensive.
Gonzo vents to Matias about how crummy his love life is. The lawyer interrupts to announce that Blanca's trial is about to begin.
Blanca grips the cell bars as her fate is read. She is sentenced to serve time (indefinitely?) in a psychiatric hospital. Blanca foams at the mouth that she isn't crazy and swears revenge on everyone, especially Gonzo. They drag her away screaming and crying. (Soto does say that they diagnosed Blanca with multiple personality disorder. Apparently her ruse worked. Maybe too well? She seemed awfully upset to have been carted off to the manicomo.)
Fina calls Berta and urges her to come home. She has something life-changing to talk to her about. (Now what has Fina got up her sleeve?)
Honorio strolls out into the sunshine as a free man. Constanza is right there to meet him. Chema spies from behind a tree but his headache causes him to leave. Honorio is cold with Connie and, in place of a greeting, asks her why she let him believe that she and Chema had an affair. Oh jeez.
Matias arrives back at the casa with a huge chip on his shoulder. He asks Adri how he is supposed to feel now that he knows Adri has feelings for Chema. Adri had to be honest with him.
Chema told Honorio that he and Connie were only make-out buddies and nothing more. For some reason, this makes Honorio really angry. Connie said what she said because Hon had already accused her without knowing the facts. She thought he knew her better than that.
Meanwhile, everyone gathers at Connie's house for Hon's party. They are all in decidedly better spirits. Regina and Gonzo are going to have a church wedding and they want Ines and Isidro to be their maid of honor / best man. (As best as I can describe it. "Padrinos" is the term they used for the honored guy and gal who help with the wedding ceremony).
Connie and Honorio re-open old wounds as their arguing continues. They are both hurt and disillusioned. Now they have to put on happy faces for the sake of the party and save round two of their fight for later.
Augie and Berta commiserate in the fields. Their fling isn't over just because Nata found out about one of their lies.
Marina runs into Nata in town. They chat in clipped tones. Nata recalls having bumped into Marina at the airport. Small world, huh? The two of them head into the church.
Lazaro and Carlos arrive at the house where Laz and Mati were born but Mati is not there. But Carlos does find her earring on the floor! They take off to check the pueblo. Elsewhere, Mati's caregiver frets over her high fever. The lady leaves to buy medicine.
Padre gives Marina and Nata their traditional dresses for the fiesta. Jero unexpectedly shows up to have a word with Marina. In private, Padre oversteps his bounds by asking Nata if she still loves Jero. Yes, she does. But there is nothing she can do about it now.
Jero relates everything Selene told him to Marina. She can't give him any details about Berta's medical records. He asks her to think about it.
Honorio is received with hugs and well wishes by everyone at the party. He and Adriana have a sweet reunion. Connie sneaks away from the fiesta unnoticed by everyone except Ines.
Fina watches the fiesta from her steps. (Am I crazy for never having noticed that the Monterrubio Mansion and Hon/Con's place are so close together?) She has a hissy fit when she sees Regina at the party. Fina vows to get rid of Regina very soon .
