to tell me. Something I would be interested in. Something important. -CARMEN IS LISTENING TO THEIR CONVERSATION. SHE’S
STILL SPYING FOR CECILIA- -BACK TO PEDRO AND ANA LAURA. PEDRO IS LAUGHING. ANA LAURA IS ANNOYED THAT HE’S LAUGHING- ANA LAURA: Why are you laughing? -CARMEN IS STILL LISTENING TO EVERYTHING VICTORIA AND MARIANO ARE DISCUSSING- VICTORIA: The event would be televised, and as I said, the best horses
and riders will be involved and the dividends of the event in the next
future…. ANA LAURA: I am not a liar, a traitor, nor a coward! I don’t know
what you’re after! VICTORIA: You provide the location, and I organize the event. What do you think? Partners? -AT THIS MOMENT, CARMEN INTERRUPTS THEM, PICKS UP THE TEA TRAY AND LEAVES- MARIANO: I’m very interested, but to be honest, at the moment, my
head is somewhere else. I’m very busy with the wedding. -THEY SHAKE HANDS, AND VICTORIA LEAVES- ANA LAURA: I’m not a princess, and Mariano is far from being a king.
-PEDRO RISES FROM THE BENCH, AND BEGINS TO WALK AWAY.

to have the decency of not showing up! -CECILIA WALKS OVER TO WHERE VICTORIA AND IGNACIO ARE STANDING- CECILIA: You shouldn’t have come! -CECILIA LOOKS ANGRILY AT THEM, BUT DOESN’T SAY
ANYTHING- -PEDRO IS SEEN WALKING PURPOSELY ALONG THE HALLWAY OF THE MAIN HOUSE. HE’S ON HIS WAY TO SEE ANA LAURA.

Have you gone crazy? -PEDRO KISSES HER PASSIONATELY. SHE READILY RESPONDS TO HIM.

Oh, excuse me! -PEDRO LOOKS AT ANA LAURA ONE LAST TIME, HE BRIEFELY LOOKS AT LETICIA, AND HE WALKS OUT OF THE ROOM- LETICIA: Have you gone absolutely crazy? -LETICIA NODS IN AGREEMENT BUT DOESN’T SAY ANYTHING.

HE WAITS UNTIL PEDRO IS OUT OF THE ROOM, BEFORE ADDRESSING ALVARO- ROBERTO: The boys sent word that everything turned out fine. -THE WEDDING. AN AREA OF THE GARDEN WAS SET UP WITH RED CARPET, STANDS WITH FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE, AND AT THE END, AN ALTAR WHERE AT THIS MOMENT, STAND VICTORIA AND FLORIA ON ONE SIDE, AND MARIANO WITH HIS PARENTS ON THE OTHER. THE GUESTS ARE STANDING ON BOTH SIDES OF THE RED CARPET. ANA LAURA IS SEEN WALKING MECHANICALLY DOWN THE AISLE, ON IGNACIO’S ARM. THEY ARRIVE AT THE ALTAR AND IGNACIO GIVES ANA LAURA’S HAND TO MARIANO. SHE STANDS, ALONG WITH MARIANO, BEFORE THE ALTAR, AND THE PRIEST BEGINS THE CEREMONY- PRIEST: My brothers and sisters, we are gathered here to celebrate the marriage of Ana Laura and Mariano. Today, when in these times is more difficult to find union, peace and happiness, this couple who today take their first steps choosing to unite before the eyes of God, are setting a great example, filling us with hope and joy, and they encourage us to continue having faith in…….. -ANA LAURA IS SCARCELY PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT THE PRIEST IS SAYING. SHE TURNS AROUND AND LOOKS AT PEDRO. PEDRO IS INTENTLY LOOKING AT HER. ANA LAURA TURNS BACK TOWARDS THE PRIEST. SHE SMILES AND FOR A SECOND TIME, SHE LOOKS TOWARDS PEDRO, BUT PEDRO IS GONE. PEDRO THEN IS SEEN WALKING DOWN THE AISLE AND APPROACHING THE ALTAR. HE PUSHES MARIANO OUT OF THE WAY AND TAKES ANA LAURA IN HIS ARMS, AND KISSES HER. THEY BOTH ARE THEN SEEN RUNNING DOWN THE AISLE AND HAPPILY WAVING TO THE CROWD, AS THEY RUN AWAY TOGETHER. MARIANO IS THEN SEEN REPEATING HIS VOWS. WHEN MARIANO IS DONE TALKING, THE PRIEST CALLS ANA LAURA’S NAME SEVERAL TIMES, AND BRINGS HER BACK TO REALITY. FROM THE MOMENT SHE TOOK A SECOND LOOK AT PEDRO, SHE’D BEEN IMAGINING THAT PEDRO HAD ACTUALLY INTERRUPTED THE WEDDING AND HAD COME AND RESCUED HER AWAY FROM MARIANO. WHILE THE PRIEST IS CALLING ANA LAURA’S NAME, PEDRO HAS A HOPEFUL LOOK ON HIS FACE, WISHING SHE’D CHANGE HER MIND AND REFUSE TO MARRY MARIANO. BUT ANA LAURA LOOKS AT MARIANO AND SHE REPEATS THE VOWS THAT MARIANO HAD JUST PRONOUNCED. PEDRO HAS BEEN WATCHING TENSELY, HOPING ANA LAURA WOULD DECIDE NOT TO GO THROUGH WITH THE CEREMONY. WHEN SHE BEGINS HER VOWS, PEDRO SEEMS CRESTFALLEN AND HIS FACE CLEARLY SHOWS THE DISAPPOINTMENT HE FEELS- ANA LAURA: I, Ana Laura, take you, Mariano, as my husband and promise to be faithful; for richer or for poorer; in illness and in health; loving you and respecting you always. -ANA LAURA FINISHES HER VOWS. PEDRO STARES SORROWFULLY
AT ANA LAURA. -THE KITCHEN- GUNTHER CALLS FOR A REUNION. ALL THE HELP IS ALREADY IN THE KITCHEN. ROSA, MAGDA, LISA AND ANTONIO- GUNTHER: Everybody, meeting, right now! -TOTI AND CHAPA ARRIVE AT THIS MOMENT. THEY ARE DRESSED IN REGIONAL PEASANT ATTIRE- GUNTHER: You know I don’t like those clothes! -VICTORIA APPROACHES THE ALTAR AND GIVES ANA LAURA A JEWELRY CASE- VICTORIA: I’d like to give you, at this moment, the jewels that belonged to your mother. And I wish your marriage to be a happy one. As happy as hers was. -ANA LAURA EMBRACES VICTORIA- CECILIA: I think it shows a lack of respect that Victoria is the one who gives Ana those jewels! -MARIANO APPROACHES ANA LAURA AND GIVES HER A KISS. SHE RELUCTANTLY ACCEPTS THE KISS, AND PULLS HER FACE AWAY FROM MARIANO’S IMMEDIATELY- -PEDRO IS STANDING WITH MARISOL AND JULIETA. HE’S DEVASTATED- JULIETA: Mom, come with me, may I touch the bride’s dress? They
say it brings good luck! -PEDRO HAS BEEN SMILING WHILE TALKING TO MARISOL AND JULIETA, BUT ONCE THEY LEAVE, HE DROPS ALL PRETENSE AND HIS FACE SHOWS HIS GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT. VICTORIA APPROACHES HIM AT THIS MOMENT- VICTORIA: Pedro, I didn’t know you’d been invited! -CHOCOLATE IS BEING PULLED BY THE TWO MEN WHO TOOK HIM FROM THE STABLES- MAN ONE: All I want now is to talk with Roberto. -AFTER THE WEDDING CEREMONY, A MEETING IS BEING HELD IN THE LIBRARY. ANA LAURA IS SITTING AT THE HEAD OF THE DESK. MARIANO IS SITTING TO HER RIGHT, AND THEN ESTEBAN MOLINA AND IGNACIO. TO HER LEFT, SITS ALVARO AND THEN CECILIA. MOLINA IS READING A DOCUMENT THAT ANA LAURA IS SUPPOSED TO SIGN, CEDING ALL RIGHTS TO HER LAND, TO THE LINARES- MOLINA: “Mrs. Ana Laura Villalobos de Linares, cedes, to Linares
Enterprises, all rights pertaining to her lands, for a period of twenty
years.” If everyone is in accord, we may proceed to the signing of
these documents. -ALVARO TAKES THE DOCUMENT FROM MOLINA AND SIGNS IT. HE THEN PASSES IT ON TO IGNACIO. IGNACIO TAKES IT AND LOOKS AT ANA LAURA. HE SIGNS THE DOCUMENT. ANA LAURA LOOKS AT HER FATHER WITH SADNESS. MOLINA THEN GIVES ANA LAURA THE DOCUMENT FOR HER SIGNATURE. ANA LAURA TAKES THE DOCUMENT BUT HESITATES IN SIGNING IT- ALVARO: Come on, Ana, don’t look so gloomy. Sign that document.
It’ll be to everyone’s advantage. -VICTORIA OPENS THE DOOR TO THE LIBRARY AND INTERRUPTS THE MEETING- VICTORIA: And how can Ana Laura be sure that once she signs that document,
her father won’t go to prison, anyway? Is there a document that guarantees
that? -ANA LAURA DOESN’T SAY ANYTHING, AND ONLY LOOKS
AT HER FATHER- THE GARDEN. THE MUSIC IS PLAYING. THE GUESTS ARE DANCING. PEDRO IS DANCING WITH FLORIA- FLORIA: One has to move! You do it very well! -JULIETA APPROACHES. PEDRO KISSES FLORIA’S HAND, EXCUSES HIMSELF, AND GOES TO DANCE WITH JULIETA- PEDRO: With a partner like you, with one like you, everything is more complicated! -PEDRO AND JULIETA CONTINUE DANCING. MARISOL APPROACHES
THEM AND SMILES- -THE LIBRARY- ALVARO: What did you say? -CECILIA RISES FROM HER CHAIR- CECILIA: This is what this piece of garbage has accomplished! And you,
Ana, are letting yourself be influenced, but you’ll regret it! -CECILIA BEGINS WALKING TOWARDS THE DOOR, WHERE VICTOTIA’S STANDING- CECILIA: You have all these people fooled, but sooner or later, they’ll
realize the type of garbage you are! -CECILIA RAISES HER HAND AND TRIES TO SLAP VICTORIA, BUT VICTORIA GRABS CECILIA’S ARM- VICTORIA: Be still! I don’t even hate you! If anything, I feel sorry for you! -VICTORIA RELEASES CECILIA’S ARM AND WALKS OUT OF
THE ROOM- BACK TO THE GARDEN- PEDRO BEGINS DANCING WITH MARISOL. TOTI AND LISA ARE WATCHING. LISA IS ADMIRING PEDRO’S DANCING ABILITIES- LISA: Look at him! -THE COAT ROOM. DIFFERENT ITEMS BELONGING TO THE GUESTS ARE BEING KEPT IN THIS ROOM. THERE ARE SHELVES CONTAING WOMEN’S PURSES AND HATS. THERE ARE ALSO TWO RACKS. ONE IS HOLDING MEN’S JACKETS AND THE OTHER HOLDS WOMEN COATS . FRANCISCO COMES IN AND STARTS GOING THROUGH THE POCKETS OF SEVERAL JACKETS, LOOKING FOR CASH. HE’S ANGRY WHEN HE FINDS ONLY CREDIT CARDS IN THE WALLETS. HE THEN GOES OVER TO THE WOMEN’S RACK. HE SEES THAT PINNED ON ONE OF THE COATS, THERE’S A BEAUTIFUL BROOCH. HE TAKES IT AND PUTS IT IN HIS POCKET. ERICA WALKS IN- ERICA: What are you doing here? -PEDRO AND MARISOL ARE STILL DANCING, BUT PEDRO BECOMES DISTRACTED WHEN ANA LAURA GOES BY AND THEN BEGINS DANCING WITH HER FATHER. MARISOL SEES THAT PEDRO IS NOT CONCENTRATING IN DANCING WITH HER, SINCE HE’S CONSTANTLY LOOKING OVER HIS SHOULDER TOWARDS ANA LAURA- MARISOL: Pedro, I’m a little tired, I’ll go sit for while. -PEDRO READILY GOES TO WHERE ANA LAURA AND IGNACIO ARE DANCING- PEDRO: Excuse me, may I dance with her? -IGNACIO LOOKS AT ANA LAURA, AND SEEING NO OBJECTION ON HER PART, AGREES. IGNACIO: Eh…yes. -PEDRO THEN EXTENDS HIS HAND TO ANA LAURA. SHE TAKES IT AND THEY MOVE THROUGH THE GUESTS TO FIND A SPOT FOR THEMSELVES. THEY BEGIN DANCING AND THEY SEEM TO BE ENJOYING THEMSELVES. THEY DANCE CLOSE TOGETHER AND PEDRO HOLDS ANA LAURA’S HAND CLOSE TO HIS HEART. THEY SMILE AND LOOK DEEPLY INTO EACH OTHERS EYES, IN WONDER. MARIANO THEN COMES AND INTERRUPTS THE MOMENT- MARIANO: Excuse me, now it’s the groom’s turn. -ANA LAURA WANTS TO CONTINUING DANCING WITH PEDRO, BUT PEDRO REFUSES- PEDRO: No. Go with him, Ana. -PEDRO WALKS AWAY. MARIANO TRIES TO TAKE ANA LAURA IN HIS ARMS, BUT ANA LAURA IMMEDIATELY STOPS HIM- ANA LAURA: I’m sorry, I don’t feel good! -ANA LAURA LOOKS STEADILY AT MARIANO AND WALKS AWAYS,
LEAVING HIM STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GARDEN- -MARISOL’S HOUSE. THAT NIGHT, AFTER THE WEDDING, PEDRO IS TEACHING JULIETA SOME DANCE STEPS- PEDRO: You step forward, then back, because the woman always starts back, so then, you have to start back and move forward, and turn and then you move forward, or you could turn and step back, it all depends on who’s leading…. -MARISOL AT THIS MOMENT, WALKS IN THE ROOM, AFTER TAKING A SHOWER- MARISOL: Aren’t you tired yet? -PEDRO KISSES JULIETA. JULIETA HUGS MARISOL, AND GOES TO BED. MARISOL AND PEDRO SIT AT THE TABLE- MARISOL: At least she had fun. -MARISOL GIVES PEDRO A LONG, MEANINGFUL LOOK. PEDRO LOOKS AT MARISOL FOR SEVERAL SECONDS, BEFORE RESPONDING- PEDRO: Eh….we must go rest. It’s been a long, tiring day. -MARISOL LOOKS DISAPPOINTED BY PEDRO’S RESPONSE, AND AWKWARDLY AGREES WITH HIM- MARISOL: Yes, I….I’m a little tired, yes. Well, I assume you’re
going to bed. -PEDRO RISES FROM HIS CHAIR, GRABS HIS JACKET, KISSES
MARISOL ON THE CHEEK, AND WITHOUT MARISOL NOTICING, GIVES HER AN AWKWARD
LOOK. HE THEN LEAVES THE HOUSE. MARISOL REMAINS AT THE TABLE, DRYING HER
HAIR WITH A TOWEL. -PEDRO IS MAKING HIS WAY TO THE STABLES. HE’S SINGING
AN OLD BEAUTIFUL SONG. HE ARRIVES AT CHOCOLATE’S STALL AND HE PANICS
WHEN HE SEES IT’S EMPTY- -ANA LAURA IS IN HER BEDROOM. SHE SITTING AT THE EDGE OF THE BED, STILL WEARING HER WEDDING DRESS.
