I wonder if they will open when Mateo and Alberto meet again in the next episode, they are going to want a big start of the episode, nothing better than that. I strongly believe episode 10 will start with Mateo walking into Alberto's place and then the phone call...

I'm still super excited to see Alberto find out he has a son and meet the little guy. I hope they handle it well. They did such a wonderful job with the death of Isabel. Such a beautiful scene, emotion and great writing. I hope that we get a little of that in the last two episodes but not so sure after tonight. Still hopeful same here I read somewhere. ..miguel said something about he is going to be so moved when he meets the little guy.❤

Yes!! Thank God for Clara and Rita!! They ran to the car told her as she was getting in the car headed to wedding. SO HAPPY TO SEE CARLOS AND CHRISTINA FINALLY UPSET!!! But i thought her reaction was weak to the news. Maybe it will be better with subs. finally we see some good news for ana. Next week will be awesome.cant wait!! That was one of my major disappointments. I thought we would see at least some reaction from Cristina and she was right there. That's my problem with this story, she really hasn't seemed that obsessed with Alberto this season. Yeah, it's hard because he's not onscreen, but she doesn't really talk about him, seek out information, etc... she just plots to plot. We never learned her plans and at this point I'm fairly confident we never will. I really believe they just wanted to bring her back and didn't know what to do with her so they tell us she is still obsessed with Alberto, though I've not seen any real evidence of that this season. I'm glad Ana figured out Cristina knew. She all but confirmed it when she grabbed Ana's arm and all her vitriol came pouring out. I just can't believe Ana still isn't catching on to Carlos. Hello, Cristina knew and is obviously is against you and she's suddenly helping Carlos plan your wedding? She doesn't find that strange or why he turned up at Cristina's daughter's birthday party? Carlos also has a dubious history that Ana is well aware of. Side note: the show isn't on next week. Next ep is Dec 14, finale Dec 21.

Well. That reveal to Ana was... anti-climatic. lol Ya they could have also made for a more suspenseful situation with Ana about to walk down the aisle and Clara and Rita driving hoping to get there in time.

I totally get that the real big moment is when they see each other again, but that's robbed of much of the power it might have had because she already knows he's alive. That's what I don't understand...if they knew they were going to have MAS for a limited time, why not just delay Ana finding out until they moment they can get them back on screen again? And cutting away from Mateo...I just don't get that at all. JR is a fantastic actor. I feel like this robbed him of some powerful material. What did he say to Alberto? What did Alberto say to him? I don't know, alfi...you know that I've defended the show A LOT on here...but I can't defend this. Either things weren't planned out as well as they should have been, and some logistical problem came up that they couldn't solve, or the writers genuinely thought this would be more powerful. If it's the latter, this is a time that I cannot agree, either on the Mateo account or the Ana account. You need to watch the episode with subs, it explains a lot. The reality is that Ana has been 5 years thinking Alberto is dead, she doesn't know what to think, she is very confused, Cristina was very cruel when she told her that Alberto abandoned her. For Pete's sakes why delay in telling Ana that Alberto is alive. Do you know what it means to be told someone is alive when you think they are dead.?Even though she is aware. .she is in a state of shock.Until she sees and holds him in her arms..and maybe pinches him to be sure.She needs time to process the news and come to grips.I think it will be so unfair to wait last minute to tell her. Mateo scenes with Alberto ..we will get them.This show isn't perfect and we aren't going to get everything we want..lets just enjoy what we have. As for Cristina. .I just don't get her..the truth is revealed about Alberto been alive..she turns around and gloats about it..And taunts Ana!!!She is just one sick bitch..I feel sorry for her.

One of the writers gave the clue this week, what if Alberto is married? That's the explanation of Mateo, they don't know anything about Alberto, what if he is married? what if he has children? How can he tell Ana that maybe Alberto is still alive without knowing if he remade his life. Clara, Rita and Mateo were protecting Ana.

I really think we should stop torturing ourselves with the what ifs..I have learned a lesson that our speculations are sometimes So way off..But Mateo did call Clara and ask her to stop the wedding..why would he do that if he knows that Alberto is married with children...Mateo isn't that dumb.Even though we didn't see Mateo and Alberto scenes..and what transpired between them..though we will see some of that in the next episode...Mateo couldn't have made that decision lightly and must have spoken with Alberto.,about calling Clara to stop the wedding.

Reading some comments in facebook people are dissapointed with the episode... because they all wanted more haha, it was too fast someone said. It was a good move by Bambu how they planned this episode i think, Dec 14 and 21, high anticipation and Alberto/MAS comeback in the two last weeks before Christmas and new year vacations, adverts are going to be expensive.

Well. That reveal to Ana was... anti-climatic. lol Ya they could have also made for a more suspenseful situation with Ana about to walk down the aisle and Clara and Rita driving hoping to get there in time. For me, it doesn't even have anything to do with the setting. I understand why they wouldn't want to do a reveal that way b/c they'd be wasting money on sets/extras for a wedding that was never destined to happen anyway. It still could've been suspenseful with the situation they had if only a few more things were done differently. Like Ana already in the car and then Clara/Rita running/screaming after it. lol Though that would be more comical than dramatic. Except the moment we did get didn't feel very dramatic either. It fell flat for me. I think the build-up/suspense w/ Mateo in NY and Clara/Rita waiting anxiously was well done, but the payoff was weak. I have a problem with the cutaway from Ana's initial reaction. Just the way the whole thing was staged/shot was so... unexciting. It felt like it happened in the blink of an eye.

I hate a man who can't take a hint,who can't take No for an answer...how many times has he proposed to Ana and how many times has she said No or dumped him for Alberto..she jilted him again.This is more personal for Carlos,it's no longer about Ana,he never loved her.This is all about his jealousy and vendetta against Alberto.
Ana has never looked so sad like today..she looked every bit of a sad bride,she never really wanted to marry Carlos...she looked extremely sad in her wedding dress..but she was trying to be brave.What an unexpected gift to hear that the love of her life and the father of her son..is ALIVE.

I have a problem with the cutaway from Ana's initial reaction. Just the way the whole thing was staged/shot was so... unexciting. It felt like it happened in the blink of an eye. 100% agree. I thought she was going to drive off and they were going to have to chase her to the church. Lol Then the strange cut away and she was sitting at the table. I always thought she would faint when hearing the news. We didn't even get to see Carlos's realization that Ana was not turning up at the wedding. In their confrontation I thought he might accidentally spill that he took the letters. It had to be traumatic for Jr. to see the wedding he wanted so badly not go through, but we didn't see him either. I was sort of thinking there might be a twist when Carlos came in and that she would decide to marry him anyway because of her anger towards Alberto. I was relieved when he left, though it would have made things more exciting. Another thing that I was surprised about was Cristina going to the wedding, especially after that confrontation with Ana. All for nothing anyway since we didn't see her reaction. I don't know why I was surprised at the reveal though because the show has a history of very poorly done, anti-climatic reveals. I thought both of Alberto/Cristina marriage/Ana reveals were very underwhelming. 2 seasons of a sham marriage for a 2 minute reveal, with no follow up on things that we are still talking about like what Cristina knew or didn't know. She never asked important questions of Alberto either etc.. It was all just swept under the rug quickly even though it was the premise of the show. I also thought another strange thing was Enrique not going to the hospital to see Patricia. Oddly enough, probably because I don't understand anything he was saying, I was feeling chemistry between Marco and Patricia and even Marco and Ana. 😳 I'm still baffled why they made a potentially interesting character such a one note villain whose storyline went nowhere. M.V.P. of the episode belongs to Clara. She was awesome!
