Duelo Tuesday 6/26 - The Cofre: back home after vacationing in Disney and Lego lands.
Dear readers and bloggers: Here is Tuesday's recap after the earlier technical difficulties. Thanks for your patience...
Friday: Alina drops the bomb on Rodrigo...she cannot marry him. Thelma rips up the divorce papers that Emilio served her. Naked Karla shows Emilio her wet chi-chis.
And now, on with the show!
Alina tells Rodrigo that he is not the man she wants to look at first thing in the morning for the rest of her life. Or something like that. His eyes get watery, he actually looks like he might cry (sniff sniff). He says he understands, it has to do with Emilio, right? She can't deny it. Rodrigo tells her it will be hard, but agrees to be 'just friends.' May I say that this guy handles bad news a whole hell of a lot better than Emilio?
Emilio doesn't succumb to Karla's invitation to bathe with her. After he walks out of her steamy tent she smirks. This piece of work is used to getting her way.
As Soledad and Coral cluck over the beaten Angel, Claudia tells them she believes the bad guys weren't regular robbers but were acting under orders from someone else. Soledad assumes that the 'someone else' is Alvaro.
Rodrigo and Alina worry about the impact her refusal of marriage will have on Gaby.
Emilio's lawyer Mauricio tells Thelma he doesn't remember ever meeting her. Moving right along, Captain Valtierra has serious reasons for filing divorce. She is an unfit mother. She endangered the life of her child by dangling him over the river Michael Jackson style and using it to blackmail Emilio. Thelma sneers that Emilio won't get rid of her so easily.
Amidst the flurry of the rescue operation Emilio scowls, smokes his cigar, and tells Frank that it won't be easy for him to work in this place.
Vargas or Vasquez the prosecutor/administrator/whatever (I'll say Vargas and y'all will know who I mean, OK?) visits DonLoco in jail. DonLoco tells him to go to hell, he doesn't believe he tried to kill Dra. Loca. Vargas tells Loco that the Doctora recommended sending him to the nut house. "You're loco, Montellano, loco with no cure."
DonLoco says he's NOT loco, Vargas doesn't know what went on between the Doctora and him. In fact, Aida is in love with him and they had something going on.
Break for a rather hot commercial for Amar Sin Limites. The cute galan has his head buried in some babe's breasts and they are about to get it on. Wow.
Back at the jailhouse, smarmy lawyer Mauro shows up and tells DonLoco that everything is going according to plan. "What's this about me being loco?" DonLoco demands. Mauro says he knows DonLoco is NOT loco, but they want everyone else to think he is so that he will be able to escape from there.
Alina gently breaks the news to Gaby that she won't be marrying her papa and leaving town with them. "Save me Alina, save me," begs Gaby. Alina wants to know from whom Gaby needs to be saved. Gaby can't tell, she's too afraid they will steal her from school. Her daddy's always working and Tina can't run fast enough to save her. Also, she's bummed that Tonqui (back to the -qui) won't be her doggie and who can blame her? Alina tells Gaby that she can run fast and she will take her to school everyday, OK? They hug.
Montellano Cane Fields/Veracruz: The distrustful pair of Hugo and Alfonsina make their booty trade under the threat of Alfonsina's gun...Hugo's fake cofre for her attache case, probably empty. "At last," she smirks, just before he clocks her with the case. She's down for the count and he gives the classically evil Gasca chuckle.
Frank tells Emilio that he's awfully quiet, what's up? Emilio fondles the heart necklace. He admits that Karla is interested in him. She's beautiful and intelligent but he's not in the mood for affairs right now. He kisses the heart as the Emilio/Alina song crescendos.
Hugo ties up Alfonsina. She calls him a traitorous pest. They argue back and forth as to which of them is the biggest traitor. Hugo finally decides to open the case and of course it's empty. "You didn't think I'd be stupid enough to trust you, did you?" she taunts. He tells her she won't be the winner.
At Rancho Viejo (the newly introduced plot line) the faithful but rather dense farmhand Lauro runs and yells for Fidencio, whoever that is. He's met by a group of nasty-looking men wielding machetes. He tells them he meant nothing against them, he was just trying to help Doña Raquel. The evil administrator Hernan rides up. Lauro asks him for help convincing the machete men that they should come back to work for Doña Raquel. Mean administrator guy tells poor Lauro that the employees are saving themselves for when the ranch belongs to him, bwahahaha. The men attack Lauro with machetes and hayforks.
Thelma is telling Singing Auntie about her meeting with the lawyer when she suddenly remembers where she met him. It was at Rodrigo's house. "Mauricio doesn't know the pain he is causing his friend Rodrigo by helping Emilio. When Emilio gets home he'll find he has no lawyer for the divorce." I don't quite see the logic in this but undoubtedly Thelma will work an angle.
Orlando buys a bus ticket in Puebla and says he'll look for Gaspar at the AAA wrestling match. He walks off to reveal Luba and Gaspar standing behind him waiting for a bus to Escondidaville. They don't see each other.
Coral, Soledad, Claudia and Angel are picking up the pieces of the boutique. Alina arrives and is impacted by the news of the robbery. However it is all about Alina as usual and she changes the subject to her news: there will be no wedding. Coral gives Soledad an "I toldya" smile.
Vargas gives Mauro the release papers for DonLoco who will be transferred via ambulance to the local snake pit. Vargas isn't happy about DonLoco going to the psych ward but he says at least he'll fit in perfectly. Mauro smirks unctuously and tells Vargas it was a brilliant move to transfer him ha ha.
Luba and Gaspar are back in Escondidaville making their way to the cave in the darkness. They tiptoe through the woods hoping that nobody from La Rinconada will see them. Luba wants to get The Cofre and take it back to Don Loco. The camera pans up the hillside to a local who just happens to be clinging to the steep hillside and who has spied them. If he manages to survive the climb I'm sure he will rat them out to Vera.
Coral and Soledad want the chisme on why Alina refused Rodrigo's proposal. Alina tells them her heart is still with Emiliooooo and when he returns she'll tell him she loves him. Yawn.
Cut to Emilio sleeping on his cot. Somebody must have called 1-800-I'm-A-Skanky-Ho because Karla creeps into his tent just as he mutters "I miss you my love." She kisses him and he sleep-kisses her in return.
After the commercial he sighs "Alina my love." She answers, "I'm not Alina, my name is Karla, Alina left you, loooong ago..." (Just kidding. Remember that stupid song?) Emilio finally wakes up. She tells him she wanted to jump his bones from the first day they met. (Which I believe is still today in telenovela time even though we haven't seen them since Friday.)
Orlando goes to the wrestling match and approaches, of all people, the announcer who is in the middle of excitedly narrating the match. "Hey buddy, yeah you, the busiest guy here except for the luchadors. Where can I find Pepe Tropicasas?" The announcer finally points to Pepe. Orlando tells Pepe he is looking for the luchador named Gaspar. Pepe is impactado.
The evil administrator Hernan reports to Raquel that evening after a hard day at work engineering the slaughter of honest employees. Raquel's pissed because she really could have used his help that day. He reminds her that his arthritis prohibits him from doing actual work. "Of course," she retorts, "It's no problem for ME to work, being pregnant and all." He has more bad news, he happened to run across Lauro who is dead. She is muy impactada.
Luba has a bad feeling. She tells Gaspar she feels the icy coldness of the dead walking by.
Skanky Ho Karla refuses to leave Emilio's bed. She's in it. He's not. She tells him she's not after anything serious, (ya think???), just a little whoopee. She refuses to go back to her own bed because she's cold, then she hunkers down in his cot.
Alina, in her bedroom, prays to the Virgencita to protect Emilio from all dangers that come his way.
As the luchadors thump and tumble Orlando continues to press Pepe for info on Gaspar. He finally tells Pepe that he knows the police are looking for Luba and Gaspar and if Pepe doesn't tell him what he knows he will be an accomplice. Pepe tells him they went somewhere called Sierra Escondido. "Again with the damn Sierra Escondido," Orlando mutters.
Luba and Gaspar finally make it to the cave. In the torchlight they see it is trashed. "They were looking for The Cofre," she growls, "Let's get The Cofre and get out." Then without warning "se pone un energúmeno" (she goes ape-shit). She curses those who trashed her cave and says they'll all pay.
*Warning - Idiot Alert: Dra. Loca drinks tea and weeps. She was wrong to think she could love DonLoco and cure him at the same time. She didn't think he would try to kill her. She actually calls Mauricio. (Dude, do not fall for that crap.) She tells him she can't sleep due to problems at work. She needs him. We don't hear what he says but he really made her brown eyes blue because she says, "Oh, OK, I understand, you're tired. See you tomorrow then." She's pathetic. "Dear God, why did I fall in love with an impossible man?"
Duhmilio tries to sleep in a chair in his tent but he's uncomfortable. He tries to wake Karla and kick her out but she ignores him. He goes back to his uncomfortable chair. He's clueless about how to handle this. He should bunk up with Frank. I know I would.
Cut to Claudia's house. Her mom is thrilled because her fabulous husband the pedophile and rapist is showering her with an array of "hot" dresses. She asks where he got the money but she doesn't really want to know. She can't wait to show Claudia what Rosendo procured for them.
Claudia looks at the dresses, "No puede ser! These are all from the Boutique!" Mom looks at Rosendo and seems impactada.
Back in the cave, now lit, Luba yells at Gaspar to hurry up, they have to leave. He comes out from behind the curtains showing off his new clothes (a skinny tank top, thank-you Virgencita!) and his incredible triceps. "Do you think my little cub will call me daddy?" he asks.
As they try to leave they are accosted by torch-bearing villagers led by Vera the stupid. Luba goes into Bruja mode, hissing and stalking. She frightens Vera then whips around and glares at Ifigenia, calling him pimply (I think). She knows why they're there but she has news for them. Flor is alive!!
The villagers don't believe Luba. They saw with their own eyes that Flor was dead and buried. Gaspar pipes up that he dug her up and his Ma revived her! Oops, too much info. Vera calls Luba a demon from hell. Luba calls them blockheads. Vera calls her blasphemous and riles up the others. They shout all the way into the commercial.
Stupid Denial Mom tells Claudia that she refuses to hear such awful accusations against her perfect Rosendo. Claudia fills mom in on the boutique burglary. Rosendo whispers into mom's ear not to believe Claudia, she has been after his hot chinless bod for some time now, always chasing him, always touching him. Mom calls Claudia a cynic/shameless hussy and slaps her face. Rosendo grins at his victory.
Alina asks Soledad, "Will I ever be happy?" Bah.
Luba tells Vera not to do something she'll regret. Luba whips out her big old knife. Will she finally stab something besides the trees and her table? Vera says before they kill her they want Flor's body so they can rebury it in hallowed ground. "Very well," answers Luba, "Flor's body is back there on the cot."
The group runs into the back of the cave, Luba graps Vera's torch and sets the curtain on fire, snatches The Cofre, and splits. Iffy puts up his dukes in an attempt to stop Gaspar. Ha! Gaspar gives him a quick pop in the kisser and Iffy drops like a noodle.
Pandemonium ensues in the cave. Vera yells "Fuego! Fuego!" as if she is the only one around who notices the fire. Sheesh Vera, everybody is trapped in flames except you and all you can do is yell "Fire!" I think they know they're burning up.
Luba and Gaspar make their way through the forest with The Cofre and a bag of their stuff. Luba points into the distance, "Let's go that way. No one ever goes toward Rancho Viejo." Luba, followed by the stud Gaspar, make their way toward the rancho." Good call to whoever it was suggested they would end up at Rancho Viejo!
Claudia begs her dysfunctional mom, "How could you believe Rosendo over me? I hate him. He's always hitting on me and I would NEVER go for a guy as revolting as he!" Mom calls her a brat and kicks her out. Rosendo comforts the stupid mom.
Luba and Gaspar arrive at Rancho Viejo. Raquel greets them with a glare and a shotgun, "Who are you and what are you doing on my land?!?"
Advance for tomorrow: DonLoco escapes from the transport ambulance (shouldn't he be transported in a paddy wagon instead of an ambulance???) and Alina is impactada to hear the news of daddy's escape.

Anyone know the ending date for DUELO? I am going out of town for a while next week and need to properly set my DVR AND most of all, if it's ending, I want to know when the cristina show will be for DUELOS. Let me know any details you have. Thanks.

So........have I missed some comments on this blog about the new show substituting for DUELOS? Amar Sin Limites? Any news on whether this was already shown in Mexico and if it's supposed to be good.
Personally, I cannot tolerate Valentino's mushy, wet, ALL ENCOMPASSING kisses so I am not sure I can watch this new show. I'm already watching Juan and Destilando so if this isn't supposed to be great, I'll be happy to let it go as 2 telenovelas already takes up a LOT of my time.

Sylvia, thanks for the terrific recap! Sorry about your technical difficulties but it didn’t hamper your style a bit. It was as diverting and amusing as ever. Maybe more so, see later comments…..
“After he walks out of her steamy tent she smirks. This piece of work is used to getting her way.” Boy, that’s an understatement if I ever heard one. But why Emiliooo, of all people, when Frank is around (as someone has noted), and why is Frank pushing so hard (also noted)?
“Claudia tells them she believes the bad guys weren't regular robbers but were acting under orders from someone else. Soledad assumes that the 'someone else' is Alvaro.” Why would Soledad immediately think DL rather than Rosendo? Rosendo would love to see Claudia in trouble, even if Coral is the one most affected. I’m just saying.
“She endangered the life of her child by dangling him over the river Michael Jackson style” Since I didn’t see the episode, I am assuming this is a quote from the script….. ;-)
“Emilio scowls, smokes his cigar, and tells Frank that it won't be easy for him to work in this place.” Ya think, Emiliooo? What was your first clue?
“Break for a rather hot commercial for Asi Es La Vida. The cute galan has his head buried in some babe's breasts and they are about to get it on. Wow.” So much for prime time and family television, eh?
Maybe Hugo and Alfi will just trick each other to death. They are just tedious.
“Mauro smirks unctuously” What a WONDERFUL word to describe how Mauro smiles when he’s being sleazy. Which is usually.
“The camera pans up the hillside to a local who just happens to be clinging to the steep hillside and who has spied them. If he manages to survive the climb I'm sure he will rat them out to Vera.” LOL. Indeed!
“Somebody must have called 1-800-I'm-A-Skanky-Ho because Karla creeps into his tent just as he mutters "I miss you my love."” ROTFLLLLL!! I just busted out laughing in the Reno airport. Now everyone is re-thinking flying on this plane if I’m on it, and it’s all your fault! (There’s an elderly grandfather with granddaughter sitting opposite me, arms crossed and staring balefully. I hope he’s not sitting near me on the plane.)
“He reminds her that his arthritis prohibits him from doing actual work.” Gimme a break! Glucosamine/chondroitin, Bud. It works wonders and then you don’t have to cop out. But somehow he figured out how to kill someone. That’s work.
“he refuses to go back to her own bed because she's cold, then she hunkers down in his cot.” Ew. She’s a mess, all right.
“He's clueless about how to handle this. He should bunk up with Frank. I know I would.” More baleful glares from the old guy across from me as I bust out laughing again. No one apparently should be having this much fun in an airport lobby.
“Claudia looks at the dresses, "No puede ser! These are all from the Boutique!" Mom looks at Rosendo and seems impactada” That’s how I had it figured, but never would have guessed he’d have the audacity to bring it all home.
“Luba, followed by the stud Gaspar, make their way toward the rancho." Good call to whoever it was suggested they would end up at Rancho Viejo!” Just when Doña Raquel needs help the most! And Hernán needs to be eliminated! I bet Gaspar is just the person for both.
Thanks for the great laughs!

“Claudia tells them she believes the bad guys weren't regular robbers but were acting under orders from someone else. Soledad assumes that the 'someone else' is Alvaro.” Why would Soledad immediately think DL rather than Rosendo? Rosendo would love to see Claudia in trouble, even if Coral is the one most affected. I’m just saying.
“She endangered the life of her child by dangling him over the river Michael Jackson style” Since I didn’t see the episode, I am assuming this is a quote from the script….. ;-)
“Emilio scowls, smokes his cigar, and tells Frank that it won't be easy for him to work in this place.” Ya think, Emiliooo? What was your first clue?
“Break for a rather hot commercial for Asi Es La Vida. The cute galan has his head buried in some babe's breasts and they are about to get it on. Wow.” So much for prime time and family television, eh?
Maybe Hugo and Alfi will just trick each other to death. They are just tedious.
“Mauro smirks unctuously” What a WONDERFUL word to describe how Mauro smiles when he’s being sleazy. Which is usually.
“The camera pans up the hillside to a local who just happens to be clinging to the steep hillside and who has spied them. If he manages to survive the climb I'm sure he will rat them out to Vera.” LOL. Indeed!
“Somebody must have called 1-800-I'm-A-Skanky-Ho because Karla creeps into his tent just as he mutters "I miss you my love."” ROTFLLLLL!! I just busted out laughing in the Reno airport. Now everyone is re-thinking flying on this plane if I’m on it, and it’s all your fault! (There’s an elderly grandfather with granddaughter sitting opposite me, arms crossed and staring balefully. I hope he’s not sitting near me on the plane.)
“He reminds her that his arthritis prohibits him from doing actual work.” Gimme a break! Glucosamine/chondroitin, Bud. It works wonders and then you don’t have to cop out. But somehow he figured out how to kill someone. That’s work.
“he refuses to go back to her own bed because she's cold, then she hunkers down in his cot.” Ew. She’s a mess, all right.
“He's clueless about how to handle this. He should bunk up with Frank. I know I would.” More baleful glares from the old guy across from me as I bust out laughing again. No one apparently should be having this much fun in an airport lobby.
“Claudia looks at the dresses, "No puede ser! These are all from the Boutique!" Mom looks at Rosendo and seems impactada” That’s how I had it figured, but never would have guessed he’d have the audacity to bring it all home.
“Luba, followed by the stud Gaspar, make their way toward the rancho." Good call to whoever it was suggested they would end up at Rancho Viejo!” Just when Doña Raquel needs help the most! And Hernán needs to be eliminated! I bet Gaspar is just the person for both.
Thanks for the great laughs!
Jeanne
Oh sorry Anonymous, the new show is Amar Sin Limites. I wrote down the wrong show. I was too impactada by the commercial, also I think I was still delirious when I wrote the recap. Thanks, I'll fix it.
I hear the ending date for Duelo will be Thursday July 12th. Don't know yet about the Christina show but usually it's the same night as the last show. If I hear more I'll mention it in the recap/comments. Also you can check the telenovela world forum for info.
Cindy, as you can see I retracted my apology, thanks!
Schoolmarm, I love the visual of you laughing out loud at Reno airport. Grumpy gramps probably wishes he was traveling with you.
Computers...it's a love/hate relationship with me. At work they called me The Destroyer, referring specifically to my relationship with all things technical.

Sylvia your recap was great as usual, and full of zingers that others have noticed already. Gotta admit, 1-800 skanky ho had me ROTFL too. A stone cold sober woman that hot to get a guy in bed, a guy she just met, is a train wreck headed down the track. Nice touch that at the same time the ho is in his bed, Alina is praying to the virgincita to protect him. Of course, he sleeps in a chair and doesn't leave so all the tounges will be wagging. I can see where this train is headed.
What was the deal with Luba and the villagers in the cave? Are they so stupid that they will stay in there and die of smoke inhalation? I can't say I feel all that sorry for them.
On the other hand I did feel sorry for Lauro, the fieldhand at Rancho Viejo. What an awful death to be cut to shreds by machetes! It was surprisingly violent. Nice that the workers are so ready to do the dirt for the guy who wants to buy the ranch.
My tivo cut off as Luba and Gaspar were running away so I was happy to find out what happened in the last few minutes.

Sylvia, now I'm laughing at Marycelis' recap of Zorro from Friday but in Salt Lake City. Everyone's ignoring me so far. That's probably a Good Thing.
I think I'll fast forward through Lauro getting machete'd. Murder 'n' mayhem 'r not Us.

Delightful recap by the Destroyer!
Doesn't Emiliooo outrank Karla, the piece of work skank? Even if he doesn't, he should have taken her arm and shown her the door--or flap (if they're in tent).
Perhaps Alfi should shoot Hugo, then Don Loco could strangle Alfi slowly, then Don Loco could suffer a really slow demise by Luba.
Lauro's death by rake was ugly.
Vera is stupid on steroids...

Yeah I imagine some horny soldier after hottie Karla would immediately get strung up, but if it is the other way around, nobody does anything. I doubt Emilioooo's insistence that he isn't interested, he'd try a little harder to run her off. I think he's trying to keep her around as a backup in case Alina dumps him for the 1000th time.
I finally got caught up on what I missed from when I was on vacation, fabulous job by Jeanne in my absence. I'm glad you all enjoyed the various cofres I found during the week.
I managed to watch about the first half of this show, the first episode I've watched at all in weeks. Thanks Sylvia for filling in the rest. I'm a little bummed that the Gran Final will be on a Thursday, I was looking forward to a rousing recap of the end of this dreck. Hopefully it will feel a little more 'Gran' and 'Final' than Heridas's final episode did, that was a dud. Al kidnaps his own woman car kills Cesar free sex show for the yacht captain the end. Weak.

Maybe you Duelo recappers can do a tag team recap like the LFMB folks did for the Gran Final. That was soooo cool.

Anon 6:49 Schoolmarm is Jeanne, and there is another recapper whose name is Jean, so we probably get mixed up. You are welcome for the info.

Sylvia~~~Excellent, as always. Here's my fav : ''He[Gaspar] comes out from behind the curtains showing off his new clothes [a skinny tank top. Thank you, Virgencita1] ''Do you think my little cub will call me daddy ?'' ..To which I say, not to worry Gasparito...if he won't...I will. The description of this scene reminded me of a high school beau of mine. We would go shopping with his mother, and then, we'd go home and he'd run upstairs and come down modeling his new clothes. Saying things like, ''I look good , don't I ? '' ...He did, but I never told him that...he was conceited enough without me fanning thst fire.

Hee hee Susanlynn, we're on the same page. When Gaspar asked his question I thought "How about I call you Ay Papito Rico?!?"
I'll bet we all had at least one of the beautiful boys in our past. They're the ones that taught us beauty fades but a sense of humor can last forever. And get better even. Bless 'em, they're probably balding a succumbing to gravity like everybody else.

To whomever asked about Karla's rank, she's not military she's a civilian defense official. Kind of like she works for the Mexican FEMA, I guess.
That's right, Margaret, when she introduced herself last week she said she was the "jefa" of the local Civil Defense agency. So, she's in charge, but it's not a rank and it's not anything like the entire Mexican Army. Which just goes to show you, skanks can be found everywhere.

Mah Gawd--in the last two weeks of this novela, they've completely turned it into Skankyhoville. Thelma is acceptable and more than enough, as far as Skankdom goes. But then Dra. Loca shows up and makes us all ashamed to be women, with her "professional" display. And NOW here comes Karla??? Another woman high on the job totem pole, throwing herself hard at someone who obviously isn't interested?? Thanks for your encouraging portrayal of women, Duelo writers, and for an early Christmas. Ho-ho-ho!!
Emiliooooo is such a stooge. Take her by the arm and escort her happy ass outside, man! Thank God for strong, confident Raquel. Too bad we're only getting a few weeks of her. And doesn't she look great in her pregnancy? Really volumptuous and attractive in her clothes, the way Thelma SHOULD have looked.
Add to Supporting Dead list: Lauro, macheted and raked to death by other rabid ranch hands. *shiver* The body count now stands at 12, y'all.
Thank GOD for sleeveless shirts and Gaspar's biceps. Makes you go mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
GREAT recap, Sylvia!

Sylvia~~~I haven't seen mine since high school graduation , but the last I'd heard, he was living in the mountains of Colordad or Montana . He loved to hunt, hike, and swim..a real mountain man even when he lived here in the east. My guess is that he is still handsome, but balding since his dad was . He did not have the keenest sense of humor and took a lot of the things I said in jest literally. But despite all those things...I do like to remember the wild strawberries and flowers he used to pick for me...you can see the Gaspar connection ...However, he was not a Lucha Libre and did not wear the overalls or live in a cave....he wore regular pants [which he often modeled for me]and lived in the wooded hills in the boonies..but in a house.

Thats very harsh for Alina to say your not the man i wanna wake up to! I hope Rodrigo finds someone in the end that is suffering as much as he is! Is it just me or does anyone not remember Thelma is a women who SHOWED up pregnant at Emiloo's wedding and married him on his death bed while calling the love of his life. The baby could be anyones if anyone took the thought along with her being crazy! I wonder what Thelma's fate will be!
Then theres Gaby who i keep forgeting is a little girl not the smartest of her age i mean that other little daughter on the love that has no price (i dont know how to spell its spainish title but that what it means in english) was smarter then her though i never understood the show cause there was no summaries thought i got something anyways the only thing she didnt do that was smart was date the guy that saved her when she was a little girl. So anyways Gaby is affraid of mad women with no one to protect her maybe someone should get her a dog.
I knew don locco would break free! I dont know his fate but i know what this will semi lead to...................but my lips are sealed!
Emiloo's house servents have no guts to kill and are stupid to continue ranting on about Luba with out trying to reach someone on there secret plain.
If I was Claudia I would pack up and move in with Corals house!
I would love to have a cap of raquel with a shot gun that look is priceless to kill!
is there 2 weeks left?
If i had a picture of an award i would give you all one for comitment!
maybe i'll give u a pic of my chihuahua!
Nice no GREAT work everyone!

There were a few people that I seriously wanted to slap tonight:
1. Thelma... But that's nothing new. I always want to slap/strangle/kick, and pull her hair.
2. Hoochie Mama Karla... Could she and Thelma be sisters?
3. Claudia's mom... Can you get any stupider?
4. Vera the annoying idiot... I just can't think of a word to describe how stupid this woman is.
Now I wonder what the fate of Vera and the other fools from the Rinconada will be. What I'd really like would be for Santos to kick them out of the Rinconada, but he's too nice. Not that he or Rosita would agree with what they have done, though... but any excuse to see them again would be fine with me.
Yeah, why didn't Emilio go to Frank's room instead of sleeping in that chair?
