How did Eva react to the news of the hostage situation?

So she was with El Alacran when Mateo called her, Mateo who a few minutes earlier had almost driven into the house gates until he saw the gunmen and then drove away while his car was being shot at. Eva was shocked and her first thought was of Valentina.

She called up Guille to check on him too, he’s fine at Renata’s, but at the moment she’s staying put with El Alacran, not in a “let’s wait this out in bed” kind of way but more that it’s the safest place to wait for news by the phone.

If anyone’s curious, maca’s brother santiago was on another televisa show where he very much used his argentinian accent. if the non-spanish speakers wanna compare or something lmao he played claudio in like la leyenda

Ah, yes. The brother who caused someone to send me, and I quote: ”the Achagas are an attractive ass family ?”

I guess it’s kind of like when Aussies and Britons come to the US and play Americans (or pretend to for five minutes, Archie Panjabi) and you can hear different accents at times.

Maca is Argentinian. However, she’s been working in Mexico for about 8-9 years now and undergone speech classes to neutralize her accent. She speaks almost Mexican at this point, her true accent can only be spotted every now and then. Even on interviews or when she’s talking as Maca, she no longer uses Argentinian grammar which is slightly different from grammar in Mexico.

Oh, okay, that’s cool to know. 

And other helpful people chimed in too:

@myrmeen said: Not everyone is physically capable of rolling Rs. Not even in countries with languages that use them. 

Yeah, you’d kind of figure that’d have to be true.

@erinkomgaykru said: My mom was born and raised in Chile and despite being fluent in Spanish does not have the physical ability to roll her Rs, it’s a whole thing that my abuela teases her about

Lol, families are like that.

@youngstar-gazer said: I wonder though, why Maca’s accent doesn’t sound Argentinian either on her normal speaking voice

I guess she’s lost it, from what anon says.

@piecebypeace said: Based on what I’ve read, Maca had to change her accent for a previous role which took place/shot in Mexico. And it likely just stuck. So she doesn’t sound Argentinian, but her accent is definitely “Mexican-ified”. Lol Also, it’s true that not all Spanish speakers or dialects roll their r’s. But I think it’s safe to say most do. Usually, it should only be rolled on double r’s (-rr). There are some exceptions. And then there are some people who roll every -r. Anyway, Maca does roll hers

Got it! I hope you see this, original anon, lol.

bro it’s LIT! i hope Juliana inherited a couple of her father’s… skills? lol anyway going by the preview if she’s actually going to the house, the roles inverted and now she’s the one out here ready to risk it all for Val

…I’ll save you the lecture about how Juls has risked a lot already and nobody would ask her to risk her LIFE for this, lol, and just say that I underestimated the show again. I totally didn’t expect the two of them to be in the thick of things like this. She picked up a VIDEO CALL. IN THE MIDDLE. OF. A. KIDNAPPING.

Okay… I’m disappointed.

Aw, I’m sorry. I was already just happy they were even going to the effort of releasing it (obviously unless tonight’s episode is TERRIBLE and this was all just a distraction), like, people listening to us and paying attention to us is so rare. And I loved what they added, and without the sound? Whew.

Plus, how can you not love this official art??

I always thought val would be the one to break the pact since she’s always so unapologetic in going after what she wants and she has such a sheltered life until recently. This show brings so many surprises

I thought so too. She was under so much pressure, wasn’t answering the phone calls.

But I think it kind of couldn’t be her? The romance they’re selling is so epic and so star-crossed, her caving because of pressure just wouldn’t work. Of course that would be understandable in real life but in this story, it would come across as her not loving Juls enough. Instead, it broke because Juls loves her too much.
