Mundo de Fieras 03/12/07 You Can Pick Your Nose...but Not Your Family

Well we begin with the knock down drag out...Joselyn killed Karen's Pa and Karen isn't taking the news well at all. Karen is all shades of upset over the truth, Joselyn says Pa was good for nuthin anyway and left Karen all those long years ago. You know Joselyn does have a point, poor Dolores was left in prison forever, Tiberio grew up without a mother and Karen was left in the clutches of the Fieras. Well, Karen doesn't see it that way. They argue more and Karen walks out after taunts of hiena...that would be hyena to us native english speakers. Hiena due to the silent "H" in spanish does sound fairly amusing. Ewwwww you just called your daughter a stinky large carnivore that eats rotten meat...Well alrighty then!

Now over to Candy's where Syl, Elsa & Candy are lamenting Leo, who has gone off to join the Peace Corp or something. Syl & Candy are saying how awful it is that Leo was rejected by those two pillars of the community Jos & Miriam...Elsa is like, give it a rest, Gawd you people create more drama than a TeleNovela. Bwwwwwahhhhhaaa wink wink. Syl chastises Elsa and says have some feeling for your mother & brother, Elsa eyeroll, she is thought bubbling "It's Miller Time", and I gotta agree with her.

Karen races over to see Dolores, she seeks refuge and protection with her Aunt. Karen is distressed but won't tell Dolores what is wrong other than her Mother basically sucks on so many levels. Karen is wearing a short sleeve white blouse under a watch plaid vest. Those clothes probably fit like three years ago, but with all the sobbing she is sadly in danger of popping a seam.

Leo is on a bus pondering the rejection of Miriam & Joselyn...poor Leo he can't get a break, maybe his luck will change, he is afterall sporting his bedazzled jacket.

Joselyn confesses to Miriam, that she told Karen she murdered Edgar, Miriam is stunned. You are BSC she tells Joselyn. Joselyn defends her actions. At this time Joselyn is having a flashback to rolling around in the bed with Edgar then blowing him away. ****I had forgotten all about that, it was the last one I saw in Dec before leaving for Mexico, when my husband saw this tonite he said, Edgar was Aldo from LFMB...No I told him, it is another white TeleNovela guy, Rene Strickler****

A tear streaked Karen is now praying in front of the Virgin Mary picture...chime in the Ava Maria music. The Padre sees her and recognizes she is Joselyn daughter. After a little strong arm tactics he forces her into a confession. She tells the Padre, Ma whacked Pa & let Fredrico take the blame. Karen doesn't really want to send her mother to prison so she & the Padre pray on it.

Gabe had dinner with JC & Paulina, he has a lot of time on his hands what with MA being kidnapped and all. Paulina explains that she has hit a dead end seaching for her birth mother.

Later Nic & Gabe have a meeting, of course there is no new info on MA...Gabe can't believe it...
Nic has hired a PI. Nic has no new news on Tiberio, but Gabe says he knows Dolores knows where Tiberio is.

Leo is now in the country somewhere in Mexico stopping the outbreak of some dreaded disease...he is vaccinating children, oooooopssss, it looks like Leo is about to lose his balance, he quickly recovers himself. Oh Leo you tireless miracle worker. I'm guessing it is the stress of his newfound relatives that is weighing heavily on him. A woman runs up with a sick boy in her arms, off they go to the infirmary. Leo will work his wily magic and save the boy.

Dolores goes to Demian to beg his help for Ti, Demian basically says drop dead, I got my own problems. He reminds Dolores of the price to be paid for killing Regina. Yeah it is rather convoluted logic...but to crazy guy it makes perfect sense. Dolores storms out. She runs into Nic in the hall, he trys to talk to her, but Dolores just takes off. Nic remembers what Gabe said about Dolores knowing the whereabouts of Ti.

Demian is now talking to his picture of Regina, she is his princess and they will spend all eternity together. Wow, according to Judo-Christian belief I think they will be in how shall I say this "different planes of existence". Well a guy can dream.

Dolores heads over to see Ti. He is holed up in a motel room. ****The artwork in his room looks like it is the same "native work" as what is hanging in his mother's apartment, not the picture of the Pope, the one next to it. Dolores tries to convince Ti to allow her to get Nic to help Ti. Ti says no and Dolores vows to always stand by Ti.

Karen and Dolores talk again...Karen is very upset, she still won't tell Dolores anything other than her mother is a terrible person. Dolores tells Karen she never believed the story of Edgar's death.

Coyote is lying on a bench outside Kidnappers R Us & he is seriously picking his nose, not just like scratching, but a part time job, Joselyn comes up and they stand outside where MA is being held, Joselyn appears to be listening for any signs of life...like MA & Ben having a sing-along.

Karen goes back to the Manse and is dragging a small suitcase (one of those ones you used to be able to carry on), bump bump bump down the steps. I'm sure this couldn't hold all her false eyelashes, maybe she'll send for the rest later. Joselyn confronts her and asks where she is going...Karen won't tell her. "This is your home and the door is always open when you come to your senses and realize you are a Fiera and want to start ripping out juglar veins with your teeth," Joselyn tells her in a moment of misguided maternal feeling.

JC & Paulina are looking at baby clothes...oh good their theme music blares...A phone call...it is the Home for Wayward Girls....(I just threw that in), anyhow it is the dead end people and they may have some info regarding Paulina's real Mom.

Leo has once again saved a life...the boy will be fine. The mother confesses that she is actually not the child's mother, he was abandoned, but she loves the boy so much. This in turn allows Leo to turn this into all about him. He says he was abandoned as a baby, but raised by a saint a literal saint, okay okay...he didn't say that but you get the idea. The woman has no dinero to pay Leo, but offers him a chicken. Leo turns her down, saying no payment is needed. They broke the mold when they made Leo.

Miriam is talking to Ingrid ***shout out to Ingrid, I am always pleasantly surprised to see you still alive***, she says she has no remorse about not bonding with Leo. Ingrid is like really nuthin? Nope says Miriam.

Later Miriam & Joselyn are sitting around the Manse, drinking (see bad people drink), and lamenting how quiet the house is, how they are all alone....Here's an idea...go see that kid locked up in his room upstairs.

Gabe is at the apartment with Luis David, telling him how much MA loves Luis David and it isn't her fault she isn't with them. Gabe is also stuffing a Bimbo cake down the kid so he will behave.

Karen arrives back at the apartment and asks Dolores, if it was rough in prison...Yes indeed Dolores answers. Karen finally breaks down and confesses that it was Joselyn who murdered Edgar...Dolores es muy impacted.

Mean while back at Kidnappers R Us, Coyote has taken a break from picking his nose...he realizes MA is sick with a fever, probably from showering in cold water. Coyote comes back with some medication, penicillin no doubt, they probably took one look at him and gave him super antibotics. He puts on his "stick-em-up" three hole stocking cap and frees her hands and takes off the bandana. Ben El Raton distracts Coyote and MA hits him over the head with a rock. She riffles his pockets, comes up with a knife, cuts her ankles free and attempts a git away...Coyote makes a grab for her and she hits him a couple of more time....
The episode ends with MA struggling up the steps in her stylish jeans & designer high heel boots.

It is a toss up in this episode who is the bigger hero Leo or Ben El Rat...so I say Kudos to both.

Beckster~~~Another great recap of a show that is becoming hard to endure. Thanks for the laughs. Poor Jos can barely keep her eyes open ....the mascara has reached epic proportions. In this show the telltale signs of the wicked appear to be : mascara and booze. Jos is beginning to reap what she has sown...the end is near. ~~~Susanlynn, vowing to give up mascara and booze and work on her bedazzling skills...just kidding
 

I forgot in my recap that Eric Castillo made an appearance as the local Mafioso shakin down the good doc...Leo you are like the weak link...for some reason, powerful men smell the weakness of Leo and cut him outta the herd...I've seen the same thing on animal planet.
 

I hadn't seen Castillo since he was the old goat patriarch (who got the babe a generation or more younger that he was) in "Nina Amada Mia" my very first novela, the one I learned Spanish with...
 

Ha ha! I'm gonna get in serious trouble one of these days at work laughing like a "hiena" over your recaps.

Speaking of Eric Castillo, I watched an old El Santo movie last weekend (Shhhhh, don't tell anyone, I'm trying to keep my lack of good taste to myself), El Santo y la Venganza de la Momia, and a very young Castillo was in it. What a laugh riot!
 

I don't watch this novela, but I love Beckster's recaps, thanks for the laughs. I also enjoy el Santo movies they are soooo ludicrous, with their colorful costumes and sport cars. I use them as a bonding tool with my boys, it gives them the chance to laugh at the ridiculous plot and learn their mother’s language…… any way keep up the good job.

Thanks Beckster - I almost got caught at work for cracking up at your "They broke the mold" comment about Leo. If Univision was smart, they would manufacture that bedazzled jacket - it would sell like hotcakes and it would go perfectly with my "Mary is my Homegirl" T-shirt.
