Destilando Amor 07/16/07 "Excuseme por el Jacuzzime"

We begin with Rod telling Isa how he has to run back to DF to help out her Padre, with a get out of jail free card and also go to the Tequila meeting. Isa whines a bit and easily manipulates "Mi Amor" to let her tag along on the trip. She convinces Rod by telling him, her Doctor said she should live her life as normal. Hmmm, like did he specify, keep having sex your BabyDaddy oh yes and keep lying to your NotBabyDaddy Husband? When he agrees she actually calls him BonBon and yes I am forced to go pour myself a glass of Tequila. Heads up, Rod says there is a problem with the Tequila and it has something to do with the United States…For the love of Gawd, I certainly hope this doesn’t mean they are going to cut off my personal supply!!!! Rod calls that stellar example of a 1950’s single gal secretary Elvira to make their travel arrangements.

Meanwhile over in DF, that Scarlet Woman, Gavi is having a sit down in a Restaurant with her ole buddy Eduardo Zaldívar. He is telling her the gossip from Montvalo…They say Gavi stole funds from the company. Gavi is muy impacted!!! How dare they say I stole! He tries to calm her down. Zaldívar says this is Minnie because of Gavi’s involvement with Aaron, Gavi denies involvement with Aaron, but does admit a history with Rod, dating back before he was married. Things did not work out well. Gavi gets up and leaves with her lil suitcase of Encyclopedias. Zaldívar gets a phone call from Elvira inviting him to a meeting with Rod. Eduardo says he will attend.

Over at Dry Gulch Acres, Acacia is wandering around with her dirty bloody hands; wiping them on her white clothes. She says you’ll never hit me again and God may forgive your sins, but I never will. She is totally channeling Wednesday Addams.

Now over to Montvalo; Rod is telling Isa (by phone that they are invited to dinner at Granny’s)…Rod runs into Bruno, who is thrilled to see him…Poor Bruno has so much work. He is so happy Rod & Isa are back together. Rod takes a stroll down memory lane and creeps into Gavi’s old office, we get some Gavi flashbacks via Rod’s mental GaviVision…Rod is forced to do his "contract every episode required" obligatory crying scene…this time in her old office.

Commercial: Oh good another Amor Sin Limites….Awesome looks like some chick tries to shoot Rene Strickler, bring it on…

It is now evening in DF and we are taken to Granny Pilar’s Museum of Manners. Sofie is telling Granny everything is cool with the "House of Lies", everyone has told regarding Gavi as long as she stays MIA. Sofie is wearing a fine "Tammy Tell Me True", lovely dress. Gawd, Sofie is just such a tool. Granny says was Frankie invited to dinner? He would, but he is out investigating jobs. Granny says what a fine young man Frankie is and Sofie agrees.
Gavi arrives home in one of the famous Mexico DF, Green & White VW Taxi’s…Frankie is right there. Okay I get it, he is now renting the Stalker Parking Place…He is all "No Puede Ser" Jennifer. He asks her to dinner. She declines, oh no he pulls the magician hands & looks like she is gonna run up and change & he says he’ll wait….


Long shot of Miami
Aaron is on the phone discussing the closing of the New York Stock Exchange, he is buying and selling and Aaron is very, very tense. Oh here comes Pam in her normal attire, a bathrobe…they cross the room and she starts stripping off Aaron’s clothes, there are clothes all over the floor.


We hear the voice of Minnie, "Aaron, Aaron", downstairs the maid is carrying freshly folded towels, she has that "Que the Hell" look as she tells Minnie, Aaron is upstairs. Damn you know the maid is thinking, "Oh No, were am I gonna get another gig, that all I do is wash & fold towels for a water addicted crazy lady?"

Like all evil witches, Minnie sees the trail, lil Hansel & Gretal left to the Jacuzzi. Damn now I feel sorry for Minnie, cause the door is closed and she does this kind of scared kid, backs into a corner thing, before she actually opens the door. The door slowly opens and well there is no getting out of this one. They are all over each other in the Jacuzzi, while holding champagne glasses. ****That drives me crazy when they show people frolicking in tubs or pools while holding glass, Hello have we learned nothing?****

Anyway Aaron sees Minnie and kinda does this Muy Impacted mini seizure thing (like she tossed the blow dryer in)…Pam looks up and for all the world she looks like a twenty dollar hooker who just got caught with the Senator. Minnie is pissed and she runs out. The maid is standing up there taking it all in. Which I don’t want to lie to you people, I’d seriously be doing the same thing. That is one of those stories that only gets better with the retelling. Pam is running after Aaron yelling "Where are you going?"

I gotta say, I tried to like Pam, but now I am sure she only calls Aaron, Bichi cause when she says Aaron, it probably comes out like Airwon, in a cute baby lisp.

Aaron chases Minnie, wearing only a big freshly clean fluffy white towel…She is pissed and tells AssHat Aaron, she is sending his happy ass to jail, for cheating the company and Rod and just being a RatBastard in General. Aaron is trying to do one of those, honey…baby…are you gonna believe me or your lyin eyes, SMACK…SMACK, she smacks him across the face with one hand then the other. It is truly a work of art, cause he is using his hands to hold up the towel and can’t even try to deflect. I must say Pilar did instill manners. Minnie runs off again. I want her to run into Horatio (David "I never go out in the sun" Curaso), screw him and talk Horatio into planting some coke on Pam, but hey that’s just me.

Frankie is still hanging around waiting for Gavi, she is spewing venom against the Montalvos. She wants to go with Frankie cause she is kinda interested in the whole future fortune telling thing.

Aaron is like one blood vessel from a serious stoke, find the keys, this guy is quite the charmer, Pammy looks all, oh how could this happen? Gee who knows, that Minnie must be like telepathic.

Minnie is standing in what looks to be some rich persons backyard against a pillar (probably left from some old plantation home) and sobbing, "Por Que Aaron?" I hope she knows Florida is "a right to pack heat state" and the owner is gonna shoot her if she doesn’t shut up and move on. Now IMO the answer to your question Minnie, would be because you are all terribly flawed human beings, but that is just my opinion.

Sofie and Isa are sitting on Grannies couch. Isa is telling Sofie, "Rod is wonderful, so attentive." I am waiting for Gigdet to say "Swell".
Dani comes in with Elvis and gives the big congrats to Sofie. Isa unlike Rod is not so easily fooled and questions Sofie. Sofie tells the whole story of how young Nancy Drew broke the case of "Singing Amante". Oooppps oh no is this gonna make trouble for me and my little bast..I mean Varon? No Sofie says as long as Gavi remains in hiding; everything is cool. (This is a very loose translation as Sofie is not even aware there is such a word as cool)


Finally Gavi comes down and she and Frankie take off in his red borrowed car. Frankie tries to impress her with Opera Music, but no a coal miner’s daughter at heart, Gavi opts for Norteno. Frankie has some & he and Ellie Mae ride happily.

Granny comes in and asks again about Frankie, the demure Sofie giggles and says he can’t come. Isa looks peeved at Frankie’s name, it is probably cause that kid is doing flip-flops thing it’s Pater is gonna appear, cause it ain’t feeling no connection to Rod. Sofie giggles yet again and tells Isa that Frankie has Grannies heart. Isa has a "I can one up that" look.

Rod finally shows up and has good news about Isa’s dad. He goes off to talk to Dani and Sofie asks about Isa’s dad. Once again Isa says how freeking awesome Rod is. I wondered if Sofie asked cause Isa had hit her up for money to help out dad, but of course Sofie declined.

Rod tries to question Dani about the weird phone a couple of days earlier, but Pilar calls them for dinner. Dani tells him it was nothing. Rod has a look like "Que?", but false alarm it was another misfiring synapses.

Aaron is on the phone and saying Minnie came to Miami and was BSC, (I am guessing that must be Mommy on the phone) Pam tries to comfort Aaron. He says he needs peace, Pammy who is now wearing a different robe (cause god knows a girl has to keep a guy guessing so he won’t get bored). Pam wisely tells him it is not going to be easy.

Over in DF Frankie & Gavi are in the restaurant drinking wine and he is doing the "70’s show", what’s your sign? Next will be "Cause you are one bitchin babe with a groovy personality". Gavi finally tells him she is a Scorpio and he says all the traits. In conversation he tells her that he can hook her up with a job at Montalvo. Gavi takes off for the bano, really to make a quick exit as Frankie, sits and thinks how much he likes her and how interesting she is compared to that simple minded Sofie, yep Frankie knows what a dullard Sofie is.

Isa excuses herself from the dinner table and Rod tells Granny he needs her to get his papers from Videgaray the traitor. Dani just sits there stone-faced. Granny fesses up that Videgaray did not betray Rod. She tells the story of the singing Amante & how Aaron investigated. Once again Rod is muy impacted or as muy impacted as Rod can be. He leaves and Dani gives them the evil eye. They still say there is no reason to tell the rest of the story (like Gavi isn’t really a whore and didn’t take the check). After all they need to watch out for Frankie’s Mom’s lil grandson.

Now then at Dry Gulch Acres, James pulls up and goes up to knock on the door, when he hears Acacia, he turns around and she is standing there in a long white dress…yep she was bringing the creep factor, I so expected a dog to howl. James asked her to marry, she said yes, but she has crazy eyes. She told him Meliton was on a trip and would be back in 15 days. James cause he too is a dumb ass, bought it. Yes indeed that is the first thing I thought when I saw Meliton, now there is a man who likes to travel.

And in conclusion to an evening of sex and lies, Dani was on the phone with Videgaray, while Sofie and Granny listened. She told him not to reveal to Rod all the info they uncovered. She then gave the look of disgust to her family members.

HAH! Thanks yet again! I am with the maid, telling this story to all my friends with jobs in Big Houses. Lives of the wealthy ...

Haven't had time to watch the show for a week - I missed whatever little twist has convinced Dani to stay quiet about the whole mishigas - could somebody tell me?
 

Can someone also translate what the preview for tonight? I hope Dani tells Rod the truth.
 

Basically, the family's argument to Dani is why risk a high-impactante confrontation between Aaron and Rod when the cause of all this trouble can't even be located. BTW, nobody can complain about Sofia's attire last night--she looked great in that close-fitting simple blue dress with the plunging neckline. And I checked out the look on Isa's face when Sofia said she was "touching the sky with her hands" because of Frankie's love.
 

Great way to start my day, thanks Beckster!

Gavi's spending time with Frankie is wierd, but there must be a plot tie-in, so now she can blow him off.

Melinama, Dani was pressured by the old bag and the younger bag to keep quiet so that Rod wouldn't be further hurt and possible put the marriage in peril, therefore risking problems with their great grandchild/nephew. Or basically covering their behinds...

beckster thanks for my Monday morning chuckles and café.

I would venture to guess that Gavi will benefit somehow from Frankie's strange attraction (well, it's Gavi after all, and she always has that effect on guys) enough that he's willing to pay the tab for the first time ever. Since she had the sense to dump him he'll have to whether he likes it or not (Ha!) and I don't think the windbag has ever had that happen to him before.
 

P.S. I love it when the recap appears promptly in the morning after last night's capitulo! Thanks so much! I was wondering how to describe Pam's look --and "twenty dollar hooker caught with the Senator" is just it. When Aaron said roughly --dejame en paz--and didn't embrace Pam when she apologized for what happened (?), it seems for foreshadow their relationship heading south. Also, I could swear the maid was really hoping that Aaron would drop that towel in his pursuit of the departing Minnie.
 

Great recap!! Gooooo Mini … Go Mini, go. Show the entire family what a woman scorned is truly all about. Will this be the end of Granny? Will the woman of cast iron stone have a heart attach when she hears the truth? I hope Dani is wearing a cheerleading skirt and carrying pompoms when Mini hands Arron’s family jewels to him on a Montalvo silver platter. Thanks again for the wonderful recap.
 

Never thought I would momentarily be rooting for Minnie,but to slap the hell out of Aaron (twice)was wonderful..Hugging the tree as she's plotting revenge on that swine Aaron is one of her best performances..

Where does one get eye makeup that never runs in these crying scenes?

Yes, Gavi has got to rise up..She cannot be kept down forever on the wrong page with Rodrigo.Yes, agree on the tie-in with Gavi & Frankie,the roach. Please let it benefit Gavi..

Thank you for the recap..Always so funny & makes me smile..
 

I was surprised as anything to see Sofie wearing a low-cut dress last night. All of her little Muffy outfits must have been at the dry cleaners'.

Speaking of clothes, has Gavi been wearing jeans to all of her sales calls? Do sales reps typically do that nowadays? I wouldn't have thought so.

The look on Aaron's face when Minnie walked in was beyond priceless. I don't think I have ever seen such a face before, and certainly not on Sergio Sendel. It's like the look of a little boy who has been caught looking in Mommy's underwear drawer.

I cracked up when he was holding that towel up. Jeez Aaron, this is no time for modesty!
 

Gees Beckster, you made me laugh again with your funny recap. Thanks, it brightened my day!
It was pretty intence episode with Granny finally making a noble gesture telling at least some truth to Rod. I didn't like his reaction though, he wasn't as "impactado" as I thought he would be.
Acacia = Wednsday Addams - this was really good! She definetely looked too cool for little inocent abused girl after the "accident", even her face changed ( for the better though).
Looks like smarmy Frankie getting himself into something more than he bargained for - at least we can see real him sometimes.
Eve
 

Thanks for the hilarious (as always) recap, Beckster. That was a pretty awesome episode. Loved Minnie's two-handed slap on Aaron. This tn has so much craaazy stuff going on. James is really naive not to realize how much baggage Acacia would bring to a relationship. She's sort of scary. I'm hoping to see Frankie pay some heartbreak dues from his Gavi attraction. He and Aaron are the primo mujeriegos, so now they can reap some of those wild oats they like to sow.
 

ah, another great recap..thanks beckster! hehehe....aron being slapped while helplessly holding his towel down..loved it!! :)

i must confess i was suprised that aron even bothered to follow minnie. i thought he'd be like 'yeah!! finally got the yapping papagayo off my back...!!" oh, minnie did a great job in this scene...cant wait to see what's next with these two.

hmmm, i'm thinking maybe this novela should be called 'destilando infidelidad'. it's all about extramarital/extra-relationship affairs (if there is such word) or whatever you may call it. let's see, if we look at all the couples in this novela that were somehow involved with/in a cheating or semi-cheating episode, we've got:

PRESENTLY:
- sofie & frankie, in which frankie has the hots for isa, who has the hots for rod but also for frankie, so that leads us to..
- isa and frankie, who have the hots for each other but currently more hots for $$$ and therefore cannot be together
- isa and rod, in which isa has the hots for anyone who can give her some luvin, while rod only has the hots for his gavi even though he's married to isa
-rod and gavi (though theirs is a special case), who fel in love before rod got married, and are the only ones in this novela who truly have the hots for only EACH OTHER, but ironically, cannot be together.
- aron and minnie, in which aron has the hots for...well, many women, but also pam, which leads us to the following couple
- aron and pam, in which aron thinks he might actually have the hots for pam, and his wife, and some other ladies, but mostly for the one who can give him a varon.

PAST CASES:
- aron and lluvia, in which we are not sure if lluvia ever had the hots for aron
- hilario and isa, though hilario is still hot for isa we know isa would never love a 'ranchero'...she doesn't know what she's missing
- hilario and sanwanna, in which hilario had the hots for isa and involved in a secret affair with her while being with sanwanna and while isa was with rod
- aron and isa, in which aron's wife, minnie, was isa's best friend and aron's cousin, rodrigo, is isa's husband

PRESUMABLE: Extra-marital affairs that are insinuated to the viewer and therefore could be assumed, but are not necessarily true:
- don amador + unknown potential jimadora

Conclusion:
- the one who's been cheated on the most: minnie, only because we don't know how many others aron has cheated with. rod is up there with her in a tight race.
- first place cheater trophy: aron
- second place cheater trophy goes to: isa
- happiest cheater: isa, she's getting lots of $$$ in return
- unhappiest cheater: currently aron, but possibly lluvia who seems to regret being involved with a scumbag
- unhappiest person that has been cheated: currently minnie, but if we count the years of suffering, gavi
- happiest person that has been cheated: sofie, just beceause she doesn't know that she's been cheated.

did i miss anyone??

hmmm...i'm not one to judge, just thought i'd be helpful for myself to put my slowly forming analysis on paper ;)
 

Beckster^^^You have , once again, outdone yourself. Your recaps are a highlight of my week ..sad, n'est-ce pas ? So, we now have Bichi and...Bonbon. Love it. Maybe Sopie will start calling Frankie...Bobo...or Booboo, Maybe the connection between Gavi and Oily Frankie will let her discover the truth about Isa's baby daddy. And [insert wild applause right here*] , Chantal brought the crazzy , no ? That two-handed slap was superb and should go down in telenovela history. Good point about AAron not being able to deflect the second slap because he was busy holding up the towel . AAron is a pretty modest guy...who would have thunk it ??? I particularly enjoyed the way the water splashed up as AAron was trying to distance himself from Pammy in the tub. Por QUE ? ..you're in a tub with another woman ...it doesn't matter if you are on the other side of the tub, Asshat. I guess crying is a part of Eduardo's contract. Do you think it's a weekly stipulation? Thanks for another laugh-filled recap, Beckster.
 

Shirt removal may be part of the contract, too!
 

P,S.Beckster^^^Loved the title...maybe AAron would have done better with Minnie if he had said that to her...you should be writing for him.
 

Tash...thanks for the countdown I was thinking about that today the links between these people. It is so uhhh how do you say Ackward at social functions?

Alas while I do love Evil Aaron..I thought he was going to replace Demien De Mundo, for me, but I have come to realize Aaron lacks the joy Demian had in destroying others, Aaron is so tense, he just doesn't take the time to enjoy...
So as of now..One-eyed, peglegged Demian reigns as my "One hawt RatBastard" hero..Yeah that's right Omar, LFMB, I coulda been a contender, you coulda been somebody, instead of a bum...but I digress..
 

I agree, Aaron would be no match for Demian.
 

Julie: jeans? I've been at it for nearly 30 years and in a variety of industries, but never ever have seen either gender in jeans, not ever. It must be a prejudicial joice of the production crew/director, unless it is done in Mexico.
 

Hilarious, Beckster! You have a true gift!

I seriously don't get the Frankie/Gavi thing. Que the hell?
 

oops. re: jeans --make that "prejudicial choice".....
 

I like the Frankie/Gavi thing. For all the lies he has told, for all of the manipulations that he has in common with Isa, he's got the neighborhood connection and genuine attraction to Gavi. It's refreshing to see that side of him -- it's as vulnerable and genuine as he's going to get. And there's the irony that their moms are friends. And one more thought -- both of their dads are unknown entities. Maybe the same person?

The Gavi jeans thing seems to be a statement about how she feels about the job. Think about how enthused she was about her other positions, going above and beyond the call of duty. For this job, the enthusiasm isn't there in the same way.
 

Thinking some more about Frankie... he is talented. Why has he not been able to make more of himself? He can read people, he's smart, he can talk up a good game. Why not a successful career in sales or the hospitality industry?
 

Great recap, Beckster! The scene with Minnie and Aaron was great!!!

Hopefully, Rod will not be left in the dark too long....Man on man, Acacia creeps me out. Will James still love her when he finds out Meliton took a permanent vacation?

Tash, that was a great list of cheaters!!! I agree about the change in title. Can't wait to see tonights!
 

Loved your recap as always beckster. You are truly entertaining! As for last night's episode, I'm most assuredly sure that Aaron will get out of this one. Minnie doesn't have a chance cause Aaron is a master player. Frankie is a facade, a chamelon. Anyone who changes faces as much as he does has that many faces of sybil thing going on. Frankie doesn't strike me as knowing who he himself really is. He just knows he's a wannabe, and he wannabe rich ultimately. Sofie would be pretty if she didn't always look like such a self righteous sour puss, which she honestly gets from the mother of all sour pusses, Pilar. Pilar's treatment of Elvis is unforgivable. And Acacia is truly scary!! I'm really starting to enjoy the dominoe pieces as they fall into place.
 

Or maybe Frankie was abducted by white slaves and relied on his wits to escape and survive on the street! He never told his mom or anyone else and he doesn't know who he is because he has had so much experience being used himself.
