The Departure...

After Second Chance telenovela Snippet 105, now continues this snippet 106... Back at Gaetana’s place a group of people wearing Halloween costumes and masks tried to rob Gaetana and her customers violently. Evaristo, who is the owner of the house and the man infatuated and in love with Gaetana came and scared the robbers’ away single handed. Gaetana was encouraged to give him a gift for being the hero. Evaristo kissed Gaetana and Gaetana fainted dead away...

Lupe, Evaristo, Matilda and Camillo carried Gaetana to the privacy of her room. There Gaetana suddenly awoke and asked everyone to leave her and Evaristo alone. She told Evaristo she had faked the whole fainting episode to be alone with him and give him what he deserved; she seductively went to him and hit him on the face hard like a man. Who did Evaristo think she was? She was no fool. At first she thought she was being robbed but when she saw Evaristo coming in with a gun, she had already known the whole thing was his set up. After being punched some more, Evaristo confessed the truth and Lupe and Camillo had to pried Gaetana away from Evaristo so that she could not hit him some more.

Gaetana wished Salvador had been there as if he had been such a situation would not have happened. She was now even thinking of selling the bar....

The two maids tried to listen to the conversation...

Salvador/Pedro told the household that he did not expect them to accept him soon but asked them to let him say goodbye once again in his own way. He purposefully went upstairs to the study and started playing the piano one last time.

Everyone listened from below until Valeria was first to climb upstairs to see Salvador/Pedro playing the piano. Everyone followed her and soon the studio was surrounded by the entire household. Angela had an emotional attack and Antonio guided her to her room. Vicky ran out crying, Simon and Abigail eventually went to their rooms and Simon hopped Pedro would stop torturing them with his music... Walter and Rebeca were utterly horrified. Later, Rebeca told Walter that of all people, she had to fall in love and go out with a dead man and not just any dead man, but the old man Donoso.

Isabel and Valeria were eventually the only ones left. Isabel begged Pedro to stop, but it looked like he was not hearing her so she ran out of the room. Valeria was the only one who remained and she moved closer and looked at Salvador playing the piano adoringly, and at the same time, we see Salvador playing we can see Pedro’s instead of Salvador’s reflection at the top of the piano.

Pedro stopped playing and went to see Isabel. But Isabel had locked her room and refused him to enter. Valeria adoringly touched the piano keys that Pedro had touched. Isabel went and got her revolver. She sat down on the floor kissed Pedro’s picture and hugged it close to her heart and positioned the gun to the roof of her mouth. Salvador managed to enter the room and could only see Isabel at the floor. He did not see Isabel pointing the gun now at her head. When Salvador/Pedro had just casually put his coat on his chair, he saw Isabel was about to kill herself and begged her not to. He sat next to Isabel and tried asking Isabel to give him the gun.

The gun went off, which startled everyone. Simon went to investigate what was happening and called out to Salvador and Isabel outside their bedroom, but Salvador told him not to enter. Salvador had managed to remove the gun from Isabel before she could kill herself. Salvador removed the bullets from the gun and started packing their belongings. Soon, Isabel joined him and gladly put her clothes in the suitcase. He told Isabel that they may never return back to the house ever again. Isabel was okay with that. Her life was now Pedro’s.

Simon and Abigail took Valeria out of the study as she had remained looking and touching the piano in wonder that she had seen Salvador/Pedro playing it.

Salvador/Pedro and Isabel silently crept out of their bedroom and as they left, Salvador/Pedro made sure he left the door to the study wide open. Walter saw as Isabel and Salvador calmly left the house for the last time.

Pedro and Isabel drove around in the car. Isabel said she was not scared as her life was in his hands and that if he wanted to kill her, he would go ahead. Pedro got out of the car and put his hand around Isabel’s neck.

Isabel confessed that even though Andre gave her poison to poison him, she never used it. Andre had realised that she was getting attached to Pedro and thus had wanted her to use the poison, but since she had grown fond of Pedro as Pedro loved her in a special way that had made her feel worthy and important, she never used the poison and therefore Pedro died in a natural way where he had a natural heart attack. (I think probably she was saying the truth as she now has nothing to loose and again the bottles of poison were intact first in the first episodes when she washed away the poison and again later when Andre found the poison and wanted to use it against Isabel, he found a sealed bottle in Isabel’s room...so I think maybe she was being honest).

Pedro released her and they went on their honeymoon. On one occasion, Pedro and Isabel were in another lake rowing the boat and Isabel threw the oars to shoe Pedro she meant no harm and wanted just to get lost with him.
