Follow Citizen TV Telenovelas
Victoria approaches Joaquina’s cell calling her name softly. “Victoria, why are you here? Did Roberta send you?” Joaquina queries. No Marijo did is Victoria’s answer; she knows you are innocent. Then Victoria states Roberta Castro is a criminal. She asks if Roberta murdered Ignacio. No answer is given.

Clemente is being questioned by Sebastian and Danilo. Danilo implies that he could be in huge danger if Roberta finds out he has been talking.

Victoria tries her best but Joaquina isn’t ready to crack. She turns her back and Victoria leaves. Staring at her back, Marijo murmurs “Emilia”.

Leonardo confronts Roberta, demanding to know why Joaquina is in prison.

Clemente and Sebastian enter the Forensic investigation office. Clemente obviously works there as one of the other staff members approaches, calling him by name, asking who Sebastian is.

Leonardo and Roberta talk about Ignacio, Mauricio, all the usual subjects. Leonardo goads Roberta into a response.

Sebastian introduces himself as someone else as he frantically signals Danilo lurking in the hallway. Danilo, always resourceful, pulls a fire alarm and they are able to escape.

Leonardo has once again opened the door for Roberta to vent telling him she despises him. She blames him for thwarting her happiness, starting when he was a child. A single tear falls from Leonardo’s face as he hears this oft repeated hatred.

Adalberto and Fidel are at the bar. Gigi’s friend Pati is at a table waving coquettishly at Fidel.

Gigi’s team confronted her about the completely innocent and not at all compromising photos. Gigi is in tears when all of a sudden, Manuelito struts in, wearing a captivating smile, laying on the charm. The women are suitably impressed. They leave, as Gigi invites him to sit. Even Teresa is smiling behind her back. They have a conversation as Teresa hangs on every word. He kisses Gigi’s hand gallantly as he leaves.

Cayetana is still hugging Gael and kisses him as Marijo comes in. She seems disgusted and disheartened, saying she is going home. Cayetana makes it clear she isn’t going to Marijo’s because of Roberta. Marijo gets a call about the mine and leaves.

Victoria calls Sebastian to thank him. “I love you” he says, “I love you too” she answers to Sebas’ chagrin and disappointment. The impact of Victoria’s words seem to be weighing heavily on him. Clemente takes advantage of the call to start running away.

Leonardo visits Sara who asks where the children are. At Tiger’s Leonardo answers. She cries copious tears and when he sits on the bed, she reaches out and grabs his arm. He stares wordlessly and is saved by a call from Patricio.

Danilo zooms over to Tigre’s and Zaira warmly welcomes him. He shakes Nico and then Romina’s hands. He smiles delightedly when Romina tells him she remembers him.

Jenifer is finally in the hospital, Aleida by her side. Orlando arrives looking heartbroken and very angry.

Sebastian catches up with a terrified Clemente who is deathly afraid of Roberta. A car comes careening out of nowhere and hits Clemente. Sebastian screams, calling for an ambulance although it appears he is already deceased.

Orlando confronts Jennifer, asking if she thinks he is stupid. She cries how much she wanted to be a mother as Aleida tries gently to calm him down. Sadly, he actually calls Jenifer a liar. He refuses to listen and leaves as Jeniffer cries out after him. Aleida tries to comfort her as she is heartbroken about the loss of her child.

The Quintana sisters are having one of the worst days of their lives. We flash back to Sara as she tells Leonardo she loves him. During the course of the evening, she tries to get Leonardo to stay with her, evoking memories of the short time they were happy with each other. So far, her attempts seem to be futile.

Victoria is visited by Fidel. Am I interrupting? No, she says. He offers his “assistance” with Joaquina’s predicament. But there’s a catch. He wants her to no longer support Gigi’s campaign. She accepts and when Victoria puts out her hand, he kisses it. Several bottles of hand sanitizer later…

Leonardo brings Sara to an apartment where she mentions Emilia. He leans in to give her a perfunctory kiss and she presses in to make it linger a bit longer. After he leaves she keeps telling herself everything will be alright. Just then, Adalberto calls. He wants her to do something which she clearly doesn’t want to do. After, he manhandles Miriam, grabbing her face, acting lasciviously. As his back is turned, Sebastian calls Miriam and she runs out.

Leonardo arrives at Tiger’s as Danilo is leaving. Leonardo says something about his children and Danilo mutters “your children” under his breath. It is clear Danilo wants to claim Romina as his. This situation is a powder keg just waiting to be ignited.

A concerned Victoria leaves a voicemail for Sebastian asking where he is. Meanwhile, Sebastian is drowning his sorrows as Miriam comes in. Shockingly, he hugs her tightly and puts his head on her chest. He stares at her leaving no doubt he wants and needs her.

Leonardo and Tiger talk about Sara, Emilia, and Victoria.

Marijo confronts Roberta about Joaquina. Roberts sneers that Joaquina is in jail and is utterly pathetic.

Sebastian wakes up in bed with Miriam. He clearly berates himself for what he did; but as the expression goes, the damage has been done.

Leonardo tells the board of directors he wants to give Tiger a place at the table. Roberta seems incredulous and a vote is taken. Of course, it’s a tie. Marijo will need to cast the tiebreaking vote. Victoria puts her hand on Marijo’s shoulder and Roberta stares daggers. Marijo, clearly conflicted, says nothing. For the moment.

MINES OF PASSION EPISODE 77
Roberta slaps and demands that Joaquina never give Mauricio's clothes to people like Gael and she never wants to see him there. Joaquina apologies.

Adalberto and Fidel storm at the police headquarters and warn Ezequiel to never try messing up with his son Orlando and quickly Adalberto takes the handcuffs off Orlando, then chides Ezequiel harshly. Orlando tells his dad that the food he gave Victoria for the miners had no poison and he doesn’t think she will gain anything out of that by poisoning the food too. Leonardo later has a talk with Orlando about the same subject. Apparently, Leonardo is suspecting Victoria for the poisoning. Orlando points out that she's a partner at the mine, to which Leonardo replies that she might have wanted the company to go bankrupt in order to buy their part of the company really cheap.

Fidel tells Roberta that she doesn’t understand why she will try to sabotage Victoria by poisoning the miners when Victoria is putting in so much money to revive the mine but Roberta cares less and he also tells her that her impulsive act landed his son Orlando in trouble. Roberta states that he treats his son awful but gets him saved when he gets into trouble which she doesn’t understand but she admits to poisoning the miners because she doesn’t need Victoria any more. She wants to do to Victoria what she did to Emilia; she wants the mine to go bankrupt and Victoria to disappear. She adds that she'll turn the people against Victoria and Fidel asks her what if it doesn't work. Roberta has thought about that too. She tells him about some signatures being in place before Victoria disappears. And after all this, she'll rebuild the mine using Victoria's ideas.

Roberta notices that Fidel doesn't look interested and gets pi**ed. She wants to know if he's with her or if she's alone. Fidel has had it; he whines that he gave Roberta a special place but never valued that. "Do whatever you want, but alone" he adds before he leaves! Roberta didn't see that coming.

Victoria tells Leonardo that she did not order all the leftover food to be thrown away.

Sara drops off her daughter to ballet class. She is leaving as Danilo grabs her and they hide behind a wall. It's their usual conversation, until things heat up a bit and Sara reveals to Danilo that Romina is his daughter which is why she hasn't reported him to the police though he’s been harassing her and also is wanted by the police for fraud. Danilo tells her that he will never give up on her and also his daughter Romina. Sara says the girl has a family and so he should stay away from them.

Marijó tells Roberta she will no longer let her control her life and that she will choose to be with anyone she wants to be with and that is Gael whether she likes it or not. Roberta tries to order Marijó to never again see Gael but she accuses Roberta of living off other people’s money. Roberta slaps her across the face. Marijo tells Roberta that she’s going to claim her money and wants her to leave the house, which does not belong to Roberta.

Fidel breaks the news to Adalberto about his breakup with Roberta. Adalberto laughs and says he made fun of him with Míriam but now he looks like he wants to cry. Fidel insists he can have any woman he wants. HE'LL HAVE VICTORIA ALCÁZAR! Adalberto chokes on his food.

Victoria asks Sebastian to help her forget Leonardo by letting them try to have something together but Sebastian tells her that he cannot try something with her when he knows that she’s still in love with Leonardo.

Later, the two men sent by Roberta start beating Gael.

Danilo tells Aleida that he has a child with Sara.

Leonardo hides Victoria in a small room, he says they'll never find her here. She freaks out and says she can't leave Gael and Tiger and wants to leave. Leonardo asks her to calm down, he's not her enemy. She apologizes, saying she can't stand injustice and that the food was intoxicated on purpose. Leonardo stares and asks her to go home, he'll investigate and will check to see if her people are okay.

Tiger tells Sebastián he should fight for Victoria and not stand aside for Leonardo to come in but he tells him that Victoria loves another man and he can’t just be a substitute.

Leonardo insists to Victoria that she let him come near her. Just then, Sebastián walks in and says he and Victoria are in a relationship. Leonardo asks her if that is the truth and she goes silent.

Right after Sara leaves, Sebastian realizes that Danilo and Sara know each other from before and that they don’t only talk about business and decides to question him on that.

Mines of Passion Episode 67: Victoria reveals her identity to Zaira
Emilia offers to stay overnight in the hospital to watch over Nicolas and swears that she will not leave him alone. Nicolás, still at the hospital and lying on his hospital bed, hears his mother's voice telling him that he is going to be okay. “Mom” he murmurs, though not awake.

Cayetana brings a basket of food to the hospital which Marijo does not appreciate. Gael is another story, thoroughly enjoying his sammie much to Marijo’s disgust and Cayetana’s barely concealed smirk.

Tiger makes peace with Orlando and advises him to go back to the police force to help them seek justice but he refuses because his days in politics and government are over.

Fidel visits Roberta at the hospital and confesses to her that what happened to her is a message that they should live the rest of their lives together because life gave them another chance to be together. Roberta says that the supposed Engineer Victoria Alcazar is interested in Leonardo and that is why she thinks she saved her so as to give a good impression about her. Roberta is still her rival but she will continue to keep her close so that later she will get rid of her. Fidel then offers to get rid of Victoria Alcázar but Roberta says that throwing her out of town is enough. Roberta then concludes that Fidel was the one who decided to run over Victoria in an attempt to kill her. Fidel says he is not the one and it's better they look out for that enemy of Victoria.

Miriam is giving Sebastian the cold shoulder as he didn’t come home last night. He tries to explain about Nico but she is obsessed, saying he is in love with Victoria. Sebastian is frustrated, trying to tell Miriam that Nico is in the hospital and almost died! She accuses him of being obsessed with Emilia. She also taunts him about his relationship with Victoria as he frustratingly defends as she is his boss.

Nico regains consciousness and enthuses as Leonardo comes in, Victoria quickly moving away from the seat next to Nico’s bed. Leonardo settles in. He tells Nico if it were not for Victoria and a few others, things would have turned out very differently. “I love you so much”, Nico smiles and they fist bump, Leonardo tilting his head toward Nico’s shoulder.

Adalberto scolds Gigi for giving an interview without his permission. Gigi clarifies to him that neither the party nor her husband owns her and it’s either he chooses to support her or Sara if not she would back out of the party because all she can see is Adalberto trying to bring conflict in the family. Adalberto chooses Sara and Gigi warns him that from that moment on they are at war.

Joaquina is trying to help Roberta and gets reamed out for her trouble. Fidel comes in and asks they be left alone. He talks about Emilia and Victoria and later Orlando

Emilia helps feed Nico the hospital. He asks Victoria about her son. Who is he and what is he like? “Handsome and wonderful”, she enthuses. Nico would like to be his friend but he needs to get to know him. He asks if he can find him on the internet. He asks if she has a photo of him as Leonardo nods in agreement. Now Victoria is really starting to panic!

Tiger and Gael finally get to see Nicolás at the hospital and Roberta reluctantly allows them to go to her house after a request from Nicolas. Tiger thanks Victoria for everything she has done, echoed by Nico. There is some good-natured conversation as Leonardo and Victoria take their leave.

Leonardo invites Victoria to grab a bite. They sit outside and engage the men sitting at the other picnic table in a conversation. Victoria is very comfortable eating her food. Leonardo tells her she is a wonderful woman and seems smitten. He tells her that she reminds him of Emilia because of her many qualities and promises the mine that very soon they will have a canteen to eat good foods.

Nico explains what happened and the dare from his “friends” about going to the cursed cave. Roberta comes in and Zaira reluctantly cedes her seat to Roberta. We see Roberta is limping. She talks about wanting him home.

I believe Adalberto tells Sara that politically, she is perfect for the presidency. She has the ideal family and is a good mother and madastra. And my mother Sara queries, folding her arms? Sara expresses her doubts but Addled seems determined swooping Romina up in his arms and herding the family out the door.

Nico asks Zaira if he can tell her a secret. When I was lost in the woods, I saw my mother, she is alive! Gael looks stricken (for obvious reasons!).

Orlando tells Jennifer that he fears that his father Fidel will sell drugs at the bar he wants to use the restaurant for in the evenings. Later, Fidel arrives and forces him to accept the position in government that he assigned to him.

Zaira kisses Nico and gently assures him that he only imagined seeing Emilia. He hallucinated as he was so sick and weak.

Gael gets a text from Victoria saying she needs to see him. He texts her back immediately and rushes off, evading Tiger’s question as to where he is going. Zaira raises her eyebrows, suspicions aroused.

Leonardo shows up to take Roberta home. Fidel comes in and Roberta is instantly alert, staring hard. This isn’t the time Roberta says to Fidel, a stern warning in her voice. Fidel apologizes to Leonardo for having betrayed Ignacio to have an affair with Roberta, but he never wants to hide things again and actually needs his approval to formalize his relationship with Roberta.

Gael runs into Victoria’s arms. Zaira walks in on Gael and Victoria and gets furious because she feels that he and Victoria have a secret affair when Gael is much younger than her. At that moment Victoria Alcázar confesses to Zaira that she is actually Emilia Sánchez, Gael's brother. She is alive. Unable to believe her eyes and ears, Zaira faints.
