Even
if this doctor only
appears in a few episodes, his role is capital for the
comprehension of the events that will follow. He is indeed one of the
only characters who knows what occured of Santana Andrade's child right
after his birth.
Five
years earlier, Dr. Ramirez, answering the orders of C.C. Capwell, with
the help of a nurse named Delores Sanchez, delivers Santana of a little
boy. On August 21 1979, Santana gives birth to a son, result of her
love-affair with Channing Capwell Junior. And just at the moment she
stood up to see her son, the nurse obeying Dr. Ramirez's instructions, puts
her hand on her eyes. Santana does not see what happens then.
And
when in 1984, Santana returns in Acapulco to finally know all the truth,
she goes towards him. Under C.C.'s authority, Dr. Ramirez must not in no
case betray their secret, ortherwise he will have to face the reprisals.
Then, informed by C.C. that Santana is traveling towards him, he leaves
the private clinic. Pretexting holidays in Germany, Dr. Ramirez takes
refuge in the best hotel of the town. However, Santana ends up finding
him at the bar of the hotel. Knowing that she is ready to everything to
discover the truth, he proposes her a curious bargain : one night
against what happened five years ago. Santana refuses to yield to his
advances. She leaves him while preserving a big trump for her : the
recording of their conversation.
Called
again by Santana, he is constrained to reveal her all the truth,
otherwise she will bring the tape to the doctors council. Having no
other choice, he avowes : it is C.C. Capwell who cared of
everything. Just at the end of the delivery, he took the child and gave
him to C.C. Capwell. He saw him going into a black limousine, at the
side of a woman dressed in red. He has not been able to see her face.
That is all he knows. The rest should be required to C.C. Capwell. And
that is how the light is done on the birth and the adoption of the
little Brandon by Gina and Stockman DeMott.
