RECAP IN ENGLISH 

Reina reads her diary from Oct 12, 2006. It's just vague enough that it *could* be describing Victor. She met him at a wedding and he's a millionaire. (I seem to remember she was writing about her pregnancy at one point, but those pages seem to be missing. On purpose? Or did the writers forget?)

Navier helps Clarita with her dragon and asks why she likes dragons so much. Her mother always told her dragon stories.

Reina gets to the end of her diary and appears as confused as I am that it's over. She looks for another notebook, but the cubby is empty.

Clarita is sad that her mother can't remember he and wonders who will tell her dragon stories now. Navier offers to tell one. Navier also plants another mic. 

Susanna visits Good Cop. She's the worst mom ever. Her daughter hates her. She doesn't even feel sorry for her mom. They are like strangers. Susanna laments having never had a career, or learning to swim (seriously? Or is that a metaphor?), or standing up to Victor. She most regrets not choosing Good Cop (what was his name?)

Victor is mad that Carmen never realized the existence of Sofia (QUE???? Cara de confusion de recapper.) He's maintained her for 8 years. She claims his maintenance is lacking and he thinks she's doing ok for a bum who never works. She better do what he says or things will not go well for her. Reina comes in and says her past is still just as lost.

Good Cop takes Susanna home. She confesses that Greta is not her daughter. 

Navier listens from HQ. Victor and Reina return home. They get the message that the taxista came and will come back later. Clarita shows Reina the dragon picture. Navier declares that the mics work perfectly and he leaves headquarters. 

Andres and Estefania snipe at each other. He decides to leave before her Client(?), lover(?), Boyfriend(?!) arrives. Estefania informs him her love is arriving.

Victor informs Reina of her habits: only white or beige pajamas. Closet organized by color. Reina asks how they met and he says in a church and it was love at first sight. She started working for him, he was getting a divorce, she got pregnant and there you go. She asks about a wedding and he says there was no wedding. She realizes that there must have been someone before she met Victor.

Navier arrives at Estefania's for the booty call. 

Lazaro is the nurse for Solange, Greta's friend. Solange likes what she sees and tells Greta she can go. Greta says she had a stray puppy named Lazaro once, but he died.

Susanna cries and wonders how she was supposed to tell the child she wasn't really her child? Even Good Cop never agreed with hiding that truth from Greta. Susana always loved the girl even if it was a child from Victor's infidelity and the mother abandoned her. 

Pillow talk. Estefania met the ex-wife by coincidence and Greta, too. Maybe she can learn something that can destroy Victor. Then again, maybe they should forget the whole thing and run off together. Navier tells her not to get any ideas about them. 

Navier arrives at Reina's to return the cross. He confesses they had met each other before.

Rocky is worried about Navier. Smith says Navier will coldly carry out the mission. Rocky meant what will happen when Navier finds out they lied and that Reina never betrayed him. Smith says it was for the good of the country. 

Navier explains to Reina that they *did* meet at the clinic. His girlfriend had been in an accident and he snuck into the hospital like a doctor to see her. He almost got caught so he ducked into Reina's room. Coincidence? Nope. Destiny. The girlfriend died, though. Clarita interrupts telling Navier that she hopes she gets a "10" on her dragon. Reina goes for a cookie, but Clarita reminds her she never eats cookies. Victor arrives to tell her about her carb-restricted diet. Sounds like Victor has been controlling her and I want to know that part of the story. Reina asks Victor to give Navier a job. He returned the necklace that she feels is important to her. Victor lies and says of course it is. He gave it to her. 

Then Victor goes and tells Navier that he was the one that gave Reina the cross and to thank Navier for returning it, he wants to offer him a job.

Susanna thinks of Camila and tries to drive herself over a cliff.

Reina sits in what she's told is her favorite spot. 

Estefania enters her bat cave of jewels. Someone might be the queen of hearts, but SHE'S the queen of diamonds!

Navier tells Reina he's going to be her chofer.

Reina thinks having a chofer is a ridiculous idea. Navier explains the doctor doesn't think she should drive and he really needs the work, so he hopes she doesn't reject the idea. She mentions that someone is trying to kill her and they don't know who. Isn't he afraid? He's not. Only one person makes him feel vulnerable and that person is dead. 

Juanjo is on the scene of Susana's suicide attempt. He pulls her out of the car.

Greta tells Victor she's upset with her mom for trying to control her life, but deep down she does love her. Her dad is so different! He's like a hurricane and fights for what he wants. Victor comforts her and she regrets telling her mother that she wished she were dead. 

Estefania continues to fondle her diamonds and to talk about secrets that can bring you life, or death. 

Navier tells Clarita he'll be her mom's chofer. Clarita likes him. Isidro needs to meet with the new chofer. Navier assumes he doesn't need any references and Isidro informs him they already have them. Navier is to start right now.

Navier magically appears in Smith's office to inform her. He's going to live with the De Rosas. Smith reminds him that someone is trying to kill Reina and even Smith doesn't know who. Reina is in danger and as chofer, Navier is too.

Reina is still not happy about the new chofer, but Victor does whatever she asks and she asked him to give Navier a job. Victor needs to know she'll be protected. She balks at the idea of police protection. Victor would die if anything happens to Reina. She reminds him she needs some more time. Victor looks evil.

Susana is not happy that Juanjo saved her life. Not the reaction Juanjo was expecting.

Lazaro tries to matchmake Juanjo with Connie. Connie rejects the idea. She hasn't found anyone, but she' been fine taking care of Roman. Besides, maybe she already met someone. 

Delfina taunts Isidro with the new taxista/chofer. Isidro reminds her that girls like her are a dime a dozen. Delfina is in charge of Reina's business right now. Reina agrees to go with her and Clarita to the shop. Delfina tells Reina that she can tell Vic she doesn't want to go out. Vic loves to go out, drink and make love to Reina.

Isidro calls Navier and tells him there's been a change of plans.

Juanjo talks a lot. There are other ways to die. What he means is life is too important. He tells her to look around, but not that way since her car is totaled. She wants his cell, but he must have lost it saving her. She realized her wallet is gone, too. Juanjo says she doesn't have to worry about his reward. She's not going to reward him for saving her life when she didn't want him to. 

Reina arrives at her store. She's dumfounded. Clarita tells Reina that she may not remember, but she's the best.

Isidro informs Vic that Navier is on his way and everything for the evening is ready. He also tells Vic to watch out for Delfina. Vic thinks he's got her under control.

Susana is forced to ride in Juanjo's car. He needs to help her with her door. His sparks fly. Hers; not so much.

Navier receives his chofer suit. He also receives instructions from Vic to protect Reina. Vic doesn't know who could be trying to kill her either. He also asks Navier to be his eyes when he can't be around Reina. Oh, and he's planning a surprise for tonight that he needs help with. Isidro needs to talk to Vic privately. Izzy informs Vic that the seller is in the country with the merchandise and hasn't contacted them. Vic doesn't like that at all. Smith and Rocky listen in.

Estefania meets with a Middle Eastern man. She inspects a rather large, red gem. 

Greta is in Susana's room and leaving a voice message. Susana comes in and tries to play off her state of dishevelment. Juanjo blabs about the suicide attempts.

Navier in his chofer suit and reading his phone. He bumps into Izzy and pickpockets his phone. He downloads the info from Izzy's phone and slides it across the floor. Izzy comes in and picks up the phone, but doesn't remember dropping it.

At the shop, everyone overwhelms Reina with questions and requests.

Juanjo tells Greta he saved her mom and that she needs to talk to her mom and help her. He gets all up in their tender mommy/daughter conversation. So funny. The leave him alone. He leaves.

Navier sends the info from Izzy's phone to Smith and heads out.

Estefania buys the big red jewel.

Clarita asks Reina if she remembers what they used to do on Saturday's. Reina can't remember. 

My recording cuts off, but I remember from watching last night that Delfina whispers evil in Clarita's ear and Clarita accuses Reina of not loving her. Reina gets really overwhelmed and wants to go. Did Navier show up? I can't remember. 

Have a great TIME, Telemundo fans!
