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 78

Fernanda told Juan, "Gonzalo is right. I don't deserve to recover my daughters. When Florencia is better, I will leave forever."

Fabricio told Fernanda, "Take my life if necessary, but save her!" He also said he can't forgive his mother for lying to him about who his father was.

Raul told Carola he needs a computer for his work (whatever that is). She said she'll buy one tomorrow and they can share it.

Cesar told Lisania (after beating her up) to go home and spy on Alejandro for him. He ordered her to act casual around her mother, saying "The problem is with your brother, not Daira."

He muttered to himself that it was a mistake to marry Nuria (now that he knows her mother, Bertha, doesn't really have a claim on Alejandro's fortune).

Nuria arrived and asked Cesar impatiently, "What do you want now? Should I fix a button on your shirt, shine your shoes?" because that's the only reason he ever calls her. Cesar said she can move into his apartment now. Nuria was delighted.

Luciano told Alejandro if he wants to make up with Miranda, he has to think like a woman. Alejandro tried it and decided all he has to do is clear things up with Gonzalo, then Gonzalo will talk to Miranda on his behalf and everything will be OK.

At the hospital, Fabricio told Juan not to let Bertha near Florencia, saying, "Bertha is a very bad woman." Cesar showed up and said, "My brother is right. Bertha is bad," warning that Bertha might try to hurt Juan's family. Juan said Bertha has no reason to harm his family, and Fabricio said, "She enjoys seeing people suffer."

Florencia asked Fernanda if she thinks Bertha killed the German doctors. I'm not sure what Fernanda replied, but she said it's strange that Florencia's health has never improved even though she's taken the correct medicines since childhood. Florencia demanded, "Who did I inherit this bad heart from?"

Fernanda hemmed and hawed and said it's hard to tell if a problem like this is really hereditary, then gave Florencia a drug that knocked her out. Fernanda said to the sleeping Florencia, "You will never find out that Gonzalo isn't your father. You would never forgive me."

Cesar had dinner with Fernanda and mentioned that Alejandro came to town to get revenge on Gonzalo. Fernanda asked who told him that, and Cesar claimed Fabricio told him. Fernanda silently doubted this.

Before leaving, Cesar suddenly hugged Fernanda and said, "Godmother, I love you a lot. You don't know how much." Fernanda gave him a strange look and thought, "Cesar knows more than he says. I have to talk to Alejandro."

The Guapo paid a visit to Miranda, who was sleeping, and left what looked like a little statue on her bed. Miranda woke up and found it. Her bedroom door was open and she said to herself that she remembered locking it with a key. Arcadia came to tell Miranda that Nati saw a man in the kitchen. Later Arcadia and Gavino found dirt and sand on the floor outside Miranda's room.

Words/phrases from this episode:

paredes del cielo y orillas del mar = walls of the sky and shores of the sea (this is from the theme song... which I am still trying to translate!)
