Trying to Translate

I'm trying to learn Spanish by watching telenovelas. Please share your comments about the shows, too. I know I'm not the only English-speaking person who's hooked on telenovelas!

Heridas de Amor - Episode 28

Pamela's mother, Andrea, told Pamela that Pamela's father went away one day and never came back.

"The Tycoon" talked to Gonzalo some more. I didn't understand most of it, but I think the Tycoon said his wife and daughter were murdered by his enemies. He also said something about criminal charges being political, and told Gonzalo, "You are not going to leave here as quickly as you think."

Lisania told Raul not to be nervous about meeting her mother and brother. Raul said, "Look where you live! There's a difference in classes. Better that we leave things as they are." He asked what her mother would say if she knew Lisania had met him when he stole her purse, and Daira overheard this.

Lisania told Daira that Raul didn't really steal her purse, "It is a joke, what do you think?" but Raul immediately admitted to Daira, "It's true. I won't bother your daughter again." Daira told him, "Wait. We have to talk."

Later Alejandro ranted that Lisania can't go out with Raul, "It doesn't matter why he did it, he's a thief." Daira told a story about her own family - I think she said her own father stole in order to feed his poor family. Alejandro was surprised by this but his opinion of Raul didn't change. He and Daira ordered Lisania to return to Italy (to get her away from Raul), and Lisania said she would obey.

Cesar made a phone call to try to track down the missing shares of Gonzalo's company. He spoke to the owner on the phone but the man wouldn't give him any information.

Miranda tried to reach Julio's sons to tell them Julio wants to talk to them, but they didn't return her messages. Miranda and Alejandro told Fernanda they are in love. Fernanda congratulated them, then said to herself, "I am ready, Miranda. You will be the first to know I am your mother."

Fabricio yelled at Bertha about her hatred of Miranda. Bertha's dog attacked him. Later Fabricio said it was his own fault because Bertha was crying and the dog was trained to defend her. Bertha told Renata and Florencia she was crying because she loves Florencia so much. Renata and Florencia sympathized.

Cesar asked his mother for the name of the man Gonzalo killed. Rebeca said, "I don't know. Only Fernanda knows."

Miranda vowed to herself that she will stand by her father forever. She tried to have a meeting with the company's board, but Nuria interrupted to tell them that the owner of the reserved shares wanted the meeting stopped immediately because he wasn't there to attend.

Amparo told Juan that Roman (the detective investigating Fernanda) asked her out. Francisco (Amparo's brother) told her not to go. Juan said to Francisco angrily, "What are you doing? Mama Amparito is not a girl. She has a right to go out. Don't you think she has a right to form her own family?"

Tomasa had a flashback about the night Alejandro's father was shot. She remembered overhearing Gonzalo saying, "I have to call the police and report my crime," and Bertha talking him out of it. Tomasa found the gun and gave it to a woman named Nati to hide.

In the present day, Bertha told Tomasa that she can't see her granddaughter yet. Tomasa was upset and said she'll die if she doesn't see her. Bertha demanded, "Where is Nati?" (apparently because Bertha wants to know what happened to the gun) and Tomasa said, "I don't know where she went!" Bertha said, "Yes, the same for your granddaughter." Tomasa said, "I am dying and it is your fault!"
