Acorralada #144 - 8-8-07 – Wednesday – How Low Can the Writers Sink?!

We start with Maxi-Moron forcing himself into Dimwit's room, against her wishes, and telling her he's going to rape her as a payback for cheating on him with Diablo. Dimwit repeatedly swears she never betrayed him, but the sinverguenza doesn't believe her. He then forces himself on top of her, pinning her down on the bed, and tries to kiss her. Dimwit is sobbing.

Iggy asks Camila if Camila is absolutely, positively, unequivocally sure that Alejandro is really Max. Camila is impactada and the Orchestra of Doom plays.

Marfil and Octopus are discussing if Max and Alejandro are one and the same. Marfil can't prove it, but her sixth sense tells her he is. So help her God, if Princess Fi turns up pregnant by her Max. . .it's bad enough he has a kid with Dimwit! Octopus vows to get to the bottom of this. She'll confront Alejandro. She's his mother. He'll tell her the truth!

Camila doesn't really give Iggy an answer to his question. I think she said she tried to tell Iggy and Diego before but no one believed her.

More of the same conversation between Marfil and Octopus. Tomorrow Marfil will know if Alejandro and Max are the same.

Camila lamely tries to convince Iggy that Maxi-Moron died in the fire. Alejandro is a different guy. Iggy isn't sure and the suspenseful music plays. If Iggy and Diablo go down for the fire which allegedly killed Max, Camila's going down with them as well.

Princess Fi is thinking to herself that Max/Alejandro has to be hers; it makes no difference which of the two it is. Especially if she's pregnant.

Iggy wanders off to bed and Camila swears she will never admit Max and Alejandro are the same. She needs to convince Max she wasn't involved (although Max is well aware after overhearing her conversation with Iggy on the beach awhile back). Camila is convinced if she doesn't say a word, it will be Diablo's and Iggy's word against hers.

Dimwit is lying in bed looking sad. Apparently Max completed his rape.

Lunkhead walks in to see Octopus drinking tea in the living room. He's surprised to see her awake. She tells him Marfil told her some things that made her nervous, but tomorrow she'll find out the truth. After she leaves for bed, Lunkhead calls Gaby. Gaby wants to know if he's in love with Mocosa. Lunkhead says Mocosa is just a friend. Gaby tries to warn Lunkhead that Mocosa is bad, like "Chuky" (pronounced Choo'Key) the devil doll. Lunkhead thinks Gaby is just jealous. Gaby denies it; pointing out that Mocosa has caused a lot of pain at Psycho Mansion. Lunkhead still doesn't believe her so Gaby tells him to believe what he wants and hangs up on him. Lunkhead and Gaby's theme song plays.

Maxi-Moron tries to justify his actions saying he's basically paying her back for sleeping with Diablo, a man she didn't love. It tore him up inside; blah, blah, blah. It's all her fault. Etc. He's faux crying as he's saying this and Dimwit is just laying there, presumably naked in bed, as Max is putting on one of his too-tight gray sweater-vests. He then tells her they are finished and walks out. Dimwit sobs some more. I can't even begin to relate how stupid this show's writers are if Dimwit and Maxi-Mediocre end up together after this. From my standpoint, there can be no justification for what he just did to her. It certainly isn't true love. I HATE his character, and if I didn't feel some sort of dedication to recapping this show, I'd walk away from it. Time to get off my soap box.

Granny M and Gaby are worried that Dimwit hasn't called them. Although they say it's possible Dimwit is working at the hospital, they can't help but feel something is wrong.

Sylvie arrives at the apartment chattering about trying to make-up with Jorge. When Dimwit doesn't respond, she goes into Dimwit's room. Apparently Dimwit has passed out; she doesn't respond to Sylvie.

Max pours himself a stiff drink and flashes back to the rape, in which Dimwit pleads if he loved her, he would believe she never slept with Diablo. The music let us know that Maxi-Moron is tormented by this. Good. He ought to be!

Lunkhead is splayed out on the sofa thinking about Gaby and how they're never going to be able to be together. The phone rings and it's Max, identifying himself as Alejandro. He needs to talk to Lunkhead immediately. Meanwhile Yolanda appears in Octopus' room. Yolanda tells Octopus that Lunkhead left suddenly. Octopus opines it's probably to see Gaby.

Dimwit is now awake. She refuses to tell Sylvie what happened. When Sylvie asks if Dimwit is trying to figure out what to do about her feelings for Max vs. Alejandro, Dimwit says she wants nothing to do with "him."

Yolanda tells Octopus she's been consoling Pasta and how broken up Pasta is after Fidiota married Roddy. Octopus says Pasta deserves what he gets. She then tells Yolanda that although Pasta is a free man, Octopus will never allow a nun such as Yolanda, who's been abandoned by Rene, to be with her ex-husband!

Lunkhead arrives at Alejandro's. Lunkhead is surprised that Alejandro wants to talk to him at 2 a.m. Alejandro whips off his glasses and admits "It's me, your brother Max!" Lunkhead, true to form, is impactado! It's a good thing Alejandro removed his glasses to prove his point.

Octopus continues berating Yolanda. Octopus doesn't want Yolanda falling in love with Pasta. Yolanda says, "Of course I won't; I only love Rene." Octopus goes on to say that Rene has already forgotten Yolanda. Yoli is not a teenager. Rene is in Germany where he's bound to meet a girl his own age, fall in love, and get married. That's our Octopus, ever the supportive one. She certainly can't have Yolanda happy. . .

Pasta is on the sofa moaning Fidiota's name.

Octopus continues berating Yolanda, who is now in tears. Octopus chides, "You are always going to be single!" Octopus, on the other hand, has found love with a new man. Iggy. He makes her feel great! She reminds Yolanda, yet again, to stay away from Pasta.

Lunkhead still doesn't believe Alejandro is Max. Finally Max convinces Lunkhead by telling him the fire at the asylum was deliberately set by Diablo and Iggy, with Camila's help. Max had to assume a new identity so he can take revenge on his enemies. No one else can know the truth; however. Ah, that does the trick! They lament the loss of Peyote. Lunkhead said Pasta has taken it incredibly hard. Max can't understand why, so Lunkhead tells him Pasta was Peyote's real dad!

Dimwit is flashing back to her confrontations with Maxi-Moron, in which he believed the words of Diablo over her. She then says Alejandro is as big a pig as Diablo! Max tries to throttle her and says don't you dare compare us! Back in real time, Dimwit collapses to the floor in a sodden mass.

Max thanks Lunkhead for explaining Peyote's lineage. Lunkhead then goes on to say that Octopus is engaged to Iggy. Max makes Lunkhead swear not to say a word that he's alive. Lunkhead swears. Lunkhead then wants to know why it's so urgent that Max came out of the closet. Max says something happened that's going to hound him forever.

Dimwit is still flashing back on the events leading to her rape.

Max confesses to Lunkhead that he raped Dimwit. Lunkhead asks if Dimwit denied being with Diablo. "A thousand times," says the cretin, "but I didn't believe her!" Max tries to make himself into the victim after all of this. He doesn't know what got into him. Now Dimwit is really going to hate him. Lunkhead counsels him to find Dimwit and beg for forgiveness. Lunkhead believes Dimwit would never have slept with Diablo. Dimwit is good, pure, etc. Max regrets, rightfully so, that he was such a schmuck. Cry me a river, Maxi-Sinverguenza!

Lala tells Granny M about catching Diablo and Marfil in bed. Before Granny M can fully react, the phone rings. Dimwit begs Granny M to come to Emil-Oh's apartment. She needs her granny!

Probably the best scene of the show. Diablo is told the music school has been sold to Pedro and the name of the school has been changed to Peyote Irrascible. Out walks Max as Diablo is told, "You're Fired!" Diablo is muy impactado!

Octopus is at Pedro's house, but alas, Alejandro has already left. Octopus asks if Alejandro is really her son, Max. Pedro is impactado.

Mocosa has moved into Gaby's office at Perfumes 'R Us. She is kissing her photo of Lunkhead. Gaby walks in and the fight is on, including Gaby hurling the photo of Lunkhead across the room. Fidiota asks what all the shouting is about, so Gaby says Mocosa has moved into her office and has a photo of Lunkhead. Mocosa asks Fidiota, "Are you going to take HER side? Gaby broke a photo of my boyfiend, Lunkhead! Do I need to tell my dad?

Dimwit tells Granny M that Max came over drunk and raped her. Dimwit is never going to forgive him. Yeah, right. Emili-Oh overhears the conversation.

Fidiota makes Little Doormat give Mocosa the office. After Fidiota leaves, Mocosa tells Gaby she's not going to rest until Roddy divorces Fidiota. Gaby calls her "Chuky, the demon doll" and walks out. Mocosa scowls.

More of the confrontation between Alejandro and Diablo. Finally the Music Director tells Diablo to leave or he'll call the police. Diablo stalks out.

Kick Me is in the Mocosa's new office with an envelope. He's brought what Mocosa requested. Mocosa is gloating about "her diabolical plan," although we don't know what that plan is yet.

More of Dimwit telling Granny M what happened. Emili-Oh is horrified. Suddenly Granny M and Dimwit realize he's in the room. Dimwit jumps to her feet.

Pedro denies Alejandro is really Max. Octopus tells Pedro she'll return later.

Emili-Oh wants Dimwit to confirm that Max is really alive. Dimwit tries to deny it, but Emili-Oh wants confirmation he wasn't hallucinating in the hospital when Alejandro admitted the truth. Emili-Oh starts to run off to confront Max about what happened with Dimwit. Dimwit begs him not to get involved; he's still weak after the stabbing. Emili-Oh has already run out and Dimwit collapses. Granny M screams for help and Emili-Oh runs back in. He keeps grimacing as he's trying to revive Dimwit. I guess this is to show us he's not at 100% after being released from the hospital.

Credits roll!

How low, indeed. What are we to do with this mess? I do love that Gaby calls Mocosa "Chucky." It's a creative touch.
 

what is it with raping on this show???!!!! How stupid is Fidiota to take that turd Mocosa's side over her own daughter. It's like she moved in and is pushing the almighty fidiota around. I son't even watch the show anymore, except for the last 20 minutes and then read your recaps....I hope it ends soon and univision puts on a better show..........cheddarsmom
