COMING UP TONIGHT ON MINES OF PASSION ON UTV (1 MORE EPISODE TO GO.THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE FINAL EPISODE BUT THEY DIVIDED IT INTO TWO SINCE IT WAS AIRED FOR 2 HOURS IN MEXICO)
EPISODE 107(GIGI PAYS HER LAST RESPECT TO ADALBERTO AND GIVES HIM BACK HIS WEDDING RING,ROBERTA’S PLAN OF POURING ACID ON EMILIA’S FACE BACKFIRES THANKS TO LEONARDO,TIGER FINALLY FIGHTS MARAT FOR ZAIRA’S LOVE WHILES MARIJO ACCEPTS GAEL’S MARRIAGE PROPOSAL)
At the jail, Orlando kisses Aleida’s hand, thanking her. Smiling, maternal love emanating from her eyes, she tells her adored son that she loves him with all of her heart. He returns the sentiment and they embrace.
This sweet scene is interrupted by Leo and Joaquina’s arrival, Joaquina declaring she is turning herself in; she killed Roberta!
Sebas is on the phone with Orlando and learns Adalberto is dead; he expresses sympathy for Gigi and her daughters. Orlando urges Sebas to be careful. Sebas walks into Emilia’s room and wakes Tigre up who is fast asleep in a chair, urging Tigre to go home. Is Nico OK Tigre asks worriedly? Yes he is with Marijo Sebas answers.
Sebas stares at sleeping Emilia and kisses her forehead as she sleeps.
Marat greets Zaira in the hospital hall as they catch up; Sara is all right and Fidel is locked up. As they discuss Roberta, Marat takes her hands in his as Tigre walks up. Tigre is all fired up warning him off declaring Zaira is the love of his life. Marat is not going quietly, not capitulating in the least. Zaira stares and tells them both is not the time for such talk in view of everything going on, especially with Emilia!
Orlando is leading several police to the place where Roberta was held. He descends the stairs, looking around cautiously, gun drawn. When they get to the spot Roberta was knocked out, there is blood but no body. Joaquina and Leo follow close behind and as she views the scene in shock and disbelief, she is beside herself. Leo assures Joaquina she is not alone and leads her out.
Emilia is awake, frantically trying to reach Nico. When she has no success, she starts pulling out her tubes and IV. Sebas talks her down from the ledge saying he will take care of things. As he leaves, Emilia looks sick with worry. And how intuitive she is. At that very moment, she receives a call from Roberta, who mocks her, threatening her hijo. But dear patio, shockingly, rather than looking battered and bruised, Robertta looks the picture of health! There is no blood or disfigurement, only one tiny butterfly Band-Aid!? That seemingly huge hit in the face Roberta suffered seemed to morph into little more than a scratch!!
Gigi is at the morgue to identify Adalberto’s body. We see only a pair of feet sticking out from the too short sheet. When the coroner pulls the cover back, Gigi’s face reflects her torment. Yes, it is Alberto Quintana, the father of my children she states emotionally. She asks for a few moments of privacy as her face contorts in pain.
At Roberta’s, Ezequiel, Velos, and another thug are standing in the back of the room with their prisoners, Marijo, Cayetana and Nico. Velos, sick pervert that he is, is practically licking Marijo’s face. Roberta calls Nico over and takes a picture, her arm proprietarily around him. Roberta sends Emilia the picture as they speak. Seeing it, Emilia stands up in fright and worry. Emilia wants her to come there. Alone. Nico just wants his mother!
At Emilia’s, Aleida is so proud of her son. Miriam comes down the stairs and they regard her seriously. We have something important to tell you Aleida affirms; Alberto is dead. Miriam is in shock as Aleida moves forward to take her hand.
Gigi is still talking with Adalberto’s co**se. this time we actually see his face. Crying, Gigi flashes back to several scenes including the one where she heard a drunk Adalberto promising Miriam he was going to divorce Gigi. I’m still wondering why she isn’t crying tears of joy but I digress. Shaking with grief, Gigi takes off her engagement and wedding rings and places them on his chest.
Emilia, dressed in black head to toe, holding her side in pain, walks down the hospital corridor.
Gael, Tigre, Marat and Zaira are together; Gael can’t reach Marijo and is understandably worried. Joaquina comes in and tells them they don’t know where Roberta is.
Sebas pounds on the glass door of Roberta’s house as Ezequiel comes upon him with a gun. He actually manages to get Sebas on the ground when Emilia arrives still clutching her side, wanting to see Roberta. Ezequiel seems to hesitate but Emilia does gain entrance.
Cayetana is bound and gagged while Marijo is tied to the chair. Velos (who seems completely unhinged) starts running his hand up and down Marijo’s arm. Cayetana hyperventilates, clearly terrified. Marijo starts pleading but Velos silences, then gags her. He tells her to be quiet as he kisses her
Leo and Gael have scaled the walls of the not so impenetrable castle and have the house in their sights.
Nico literally runs into Leo’s arms outside the house. Leo leaves him with Gael and then runs into the house. Meanwhile, Roberta, wearing long black gloves, pours a thick white liquid into a wine glass. Emilia limps into the room as Roberta gleefully asks how Emilia Sanchez, the miner, is. Roberta starts in and Emilia, immediately defensive, declares Leo is HER son. Clutching her side, Emilia puts her hand out toward the bookcase for support, finally collapsing on the floor. As Leo lurks in the doorway, Roberta mocks her and as she holds the glass, she extends her arm out so that it is now directly over Emilia’s head. She harkens back, muttering about Mauricio to which Emilia retorts that Mauricio is dead, thanks to Roberta. Roberta thinks back to ordering the mine explosion never expecting Mauricio to be there.
Orlando runs up behind Leo (who is still outside listening) and Leo quickly asks for his gun, asking him to find and rescue Marijo. As Roberta continues to threaten Emilia, Leo steps into the room, gun trained on Roberta. Roberta isn’t in the least bit alarmed as she continues to smile and as she moves to pour the contents of her glass on Emilia’s head, Leo fires the gun causing her to turn and fall as the contents of the glass, acid, burns her face as she screams, flaming red and raw burns appearing on her face as the acid takes its toll. Orlando runs into the kitchen and he and Sebas overpower Velos and the unknown miner. Ezequiel who is outside, hears the screaming and hesitates outside the doors.
Roberta screams and yells writhing in pain and agony.
Gael mocks Ezequiel who is running away. Orlando rides to the rescue, cold cocking Ezequiel knocking him out.
Leo has called for an ambulance; Roberta is put on a gurney with some sort of adhesive netting on her face. Leo then goes to the second ambulance where Emilia is lying. Nico joins them and Sebas encourages her from the door.
Gael is hugging Marijo as a tearful Cayetana thanks her. Bonding over their shared nightmare, the two women hug as Gael looks on. Cayetana bids them goodbye and Marijo actually seems sad. But there is a bit of light at the end of the episode. Gael gets down on his knee and proposes! Marijo happily accepts.”
