Destilando Amor Tues August 21: the power of Mañana
Sorry guys; My DVR didn't record this episode and when I got home, I'd missed a tiny piece of the beginning of the show. Feel free to fill in the blanks. Here we go...
Dona Jose and Clarita are chatting about Gavi and Rod. Dona Jose tells Clarita that now she too is related to the Montalvo's... sad, she says 'yes Clarita, my Panchito married a Montalvo'. She shows her the newspaper with Sofie and Fran showing his best aristowannabe smile.
Meanwhile, Fran is sitting in a cafe talking to his friend about the goldmine he just dug with Sofie. He tells his his friend he'll pay him back all his money; his friend doesn't believe him :)
At the CRT parking lot, the 3 witches of north east and west, are talking about their meeting with Avellaneda. I couldn't catch what he said, but it must not have been good, cuz they're upset. Isa, with a leopard print jacket and an undershirt showing her belly, is hysterical about Rod and Gavi contacting each other. Sofie and the wisest witch of all, Minnie, advise Isa to stay calm.
At work, Alonso is holding up some tequila posters, asking Gavi her opinion. They talk about agave plagues. He calls her Rosana, and asks her to answer the ringing phone. She answers; it's Cassandra, the lady with lots of makeup who helped Hilario nail his modeling job. Alonso cannot talk; Gavi suggests he take the call. We find out Cassandra has been waiting at the restaurant for him.Cassandra is mad cuz Alonso never showed up at the restaurant where he himself invited her. She needs his help with her publicity campaign. She needs to see him tonight, and begs for one hour of his time. Alonso checks with Gavi to see if he has any time to meet Cassandra; they agree to meet next day. Gavi decides she's going to remind him about the meeting tomorrow, cuz his memory braincells seem to be a bit fried.
At home, Fedra is nagging Aron about calling off his wedding with Pam and ruining her hopes of having a varon heredero. Aron tells her about minnie's cruise trip lies; Patricio El Silencioso told him. He says, she only went to see her great aunt, dona Conchita. Aron is happy about that, cuz it shows that Minnie has always been loyal to him. Fedra brings up Isa's baby topic...Aron says, that baby better be a girl, otherwise, its days will be counted.
...We get commercials about the Peru earthquake. The pictures are really devastating, and they're asking for donations. If interested in helping out, please donate to the American Red Cross.
Back to novela, even Fedra is freaked out by Aron's words. She asks him to look for Pam, and better not regret going back with Minnie!! Minnie walks in, and tells her beloved MIL that Fedra obviously doesn't accept that her and Aron are finally together. Fedra says nooo, mi amor, you cannot imagine how happy I am for you! Minnie apologizes...for a split second I think she means it as she asks Fedra to visit them in Miami. But as they hug, Minnie gives us the stepsister eye roll and portruding chin. This is especially Minnie-esque, when she's wearing red lipstick.
Back at the crt, avellaneda asks his secretary Susy to not contact him to any of the witches, neither by phone nor in person...he wants to know nothing of them! Susy asks Gavi about Rod. Gavi says nopes, Rod and I got nothing to do anymore. Susy is pensive.
At the montalvo corp, Elmira, the long lost witch of the south, sucks up to Isa about how gorgeous her baby will be. Isa inquires about Rod. Elmira tells her no worries, he hasn't spoken to Mariana Franco. Isa tells her that Mariana is now working for CRT. She asks Elmira for a daily report of Rod's moves. Elmira, eager to fit in with the witches, is happy about this new chisme job and says, sure!
Mariana talks to Avellaneda about the Montalvo fam. Avellaneda tells her he's not going to take any drastic measures as long as she doesn't mix personal issues with work. Gavi jokes that the witches will be happy when he gives them an invitation to her burial. She says she'll miss the CRT; she feels like home there.
At his office, Rod is talking tequila as Elmira jots down the info. After she leaves, Rod daydreams with Gavi, and talks about how happy he'd be if he can share his dad's tequila organico idea with her. He smiles... flashback with his dad. Uncle Bruno walks in; they talk about tequila organico. Bruno is up for the idea. Rod asks for his help. They talk about legal issues...conveniently, he needs to talk to public relations at the CRT, or, Gavi... Rod gets excited about that...tio Bruno notices, and asks him to be careful but give it a shot with the CRT.
At the hacienda, Fran asks his petite fleur to pack his camel colored shoes, sunblock, aroma therapy, and 2 change of clothes for every day. Sofie thinks this is SO funny! Granny walks in, and says that Fran may be upset about James being at the hacienda. Sofie says naaah, I only love James as a fiend. But what happened to his marriage...maybe he divorced the rancherita??
James is speaking to the priest about Acacia. The priest advises him to wait until Acacia gets better before they spill the beans. James is scared.
At CRT, Gavi answers the phone and defends Alonso from a customer; this, while Alonso looks at her and admires her business skills. Love is in the air.... (hmm...he might be a grumps. but he too has a killer smile!).
Alonso wants to show appreciation the best way he knows...making her a cup of Blue Mountain coffee. We get another lecture on how good this coffee is, while I wonder if they get sponsorship from Blue Mountain coffee? Yes, blue mountain coffee does exist.
Gavi talks about the plagues...she has some cool ideas which I don't understand. I know Alonso thinks they're cool, cuz he gives her lots of coffee. She mentions being like a goat; Alonso takes it a step further by telling Gavi that goats discovered coffee. Click here if you want to know more about the discovery of coffee.
Phone rings, Gavi answers, its Rod. They have a profesor Girafales/Dona Florinda moment....ah, love! She looks like she's about to faint. Rod tells her to be discreet and not mention she's talking to him so she doesn't get in trouble. This is important, because we get a commercial break.
Gavi: I...ehm... Rod: I am calling to ask you 2 questions...a personal one and a professional one. I'm going to start by asking you the personal one... I want to know how you are...And you need to answer me before we move on to the professional question. Gavi: I'm...G...G...Goood. Rod: and now the professional question... I have an idea for tequila organico...could you help me? Gavi: yes, I will find all the info. Rod: when? G: maybe tomorrow. Rod: Manana??? You are a good Amiga, that's why I love you SOOO much....! Manana!!! Alonso: who is it? Gav: A friend; he wants info of organic tequila. A: We'll give him the info....Manana.
In Miami, Minnie and her amorcito walk into the bichie-house. Minnie wants the whole house disinfected; she wants no trace of Pam in the house. The cleaning lady comes, Aron pats her on the shoulders and asks her to disinfect the house. Why does Aron pat everyone on the shoulder...??? Minnie yells from the bedroom; Aron walks in. On the bed, there is Pam's dress with a note to her Bichie. Minnie is freaking out and yelling at him. She doesn't want to sleep on that bed...Minnie: I want a new bed!!! a new Jaccuzzi!!! Do you think I'm going to sit in that jacuzzi where I cought the 2 of you!! I want a whole remodeling!!' Aron squints and stutters angrily as tells her to do whatever she wants. This time, I don't blame him for being mad: Though Minnie is right to be upset, what, oh what did she expect by going back to her husband's amante love nest????????
Back at CRT, Alonso and Gav are talking business. Alonso actually calls her Mariana, and tells her to go home. He then walks about and offers to take her home. This is where whe know he's going to fall in love with our heroine. He can't bare the thought of her going alone in a taxi.
Aron is on his computer at Miami. He can't find some important info...he's upset. He calls Domingaaaaa...but Minnie walks in. Dominga says Pamela was using the comp. Minnie asks what is happening! Aron is MAD; he can't find the hard drive and all his memory where he has important documents. he says Pamela stole his computer hard disk...hihi...she's feistier than we thought....well, she is a redhead u know...oh wait, it's Henna. Anyhoo....
Alonso is driving Gavi home. Again, they're talking business. I'm getting bored... can we talk about something other than plagas, agave, agave color, and agave regions? I mean, I like the topic, but I'm reaching my limit. Alonso drops her off but continues talking about tequila until she cuts him off and runs outside of the car as he talks, talks, and talks.
At home, Clarita has been waiting for Gavi. Clarita is mad cuz Gavi is past her curfew. Gavi says ma, you know I'm working 2 shifts...Clarita doesn't think it's right, Gavi says no worries, Alonso brought me. C: Aaaaah, now me cayo el veinte (now I get it)!! You are with him all day and he brings you home...so now what!! Gavi says no worries, he prefers a cup of coffee over a woman.
In his bed, Rod cannot sleep. Isa can't sleep either cuz Rod's moving his foot. She asks if he's OK. He says he's thinking of business. He tells her about Tequila organico. Isa tells him to go to sleep. He's impactado.
Back at their house, Mariana tells Clarita about her conversation with Rod. Mariana things Rod is just trying to find excuses to talk to her, and if he keeps doing that, she'll fall into his game.
Tomorrow...
- Gavi tells Alonso she's going to Guadalajara...
- Sofie tells James he can stay at the hacienda; Frankie doesn't look happy
- Rod calls the CRT, Alonso tells him that Mariana is in Jalisco. He's grumpy, but Rod is mad.
- Avellaneda tells Mariana she gets to stay in DF...as long as she stays away from Rod...BUT Rod calls the CRT....he wants to see Mariana...
Happy Wednesday! :)

Thanks, Tash! Wow, I somehow totally missed Aaron's threat about how the baby had better be a girl... I actually have been wondering if anybody was going to get whacked in this telenovela, but here's hoping Aaron won't get a chance.
So, Pamela really did wipe his hard drive. AWESOME!!! (Oh no... I hope SHE doesn't get whacked!)
I think the idea that Gaviota had, which impressed Alonso so much, was to use the local radio stations in Guadalajara to broadcast information and updates on the agave plague. She said the jimadores listen to the radio while they're working (unless they have a singing Gaviota in their midst, I guess) and this would be a good way to reach them.
I wondered last night why Frankie insisted on having Sofia pack his bags, and before that, why he wanted her and not a maid to bring his breakfast in bed. I figure it's either because 1) he fears that if he spends too much time around the servants, they'll figure out that he's really from their socioeconomic class, or 2) (if he's even a tiny bit nice) it amuses him to have a rich woman doing work for him, after his mother worked for the wealthy de la Vegas for so many years.

Um, to clarify the "even a tiny bit nice", I meant nice to his mother. (Not nice to Sofia, as my sloppy writing suggested.)
"Nice" meaning "feeling sentimental about his mother and wanting to avenge the way she was exploited by a wealthy family."
That's pure conjecture on my part. I'm not sure if he's that deep. Maybe it simply amuses him to have Sofia fuss over him. At least he's not sick of the sight of her yet.

Very good recap...I was thinking about Alonso last night, he is like "Aldo Light", he is gonna end up being sweet lil Gavi's protector and treat her as she deserves. This is not a spoiler just guessing..
Also he maybe "Aldo Light", because the rest of the charactors are not nearly as cartoonish as LFMB, so we don't have hoards of secretaries falling all over him.
What is with Minnie, did she read some Cosmo article that the rest of us missed? "Shrieking Turns Your Man On"
Actually I say Amar Sin Limites & the Alonso (Rene Strickler) had poor Frankie whacked and buried in the back yard. Hee Hee Hee

Does anyone think Susy's position at CRT will not go beyond a few more episodes before the hammer falls on her,now that the rich bitches have her spying to bring down Gavi?
Why do you supppose Clarita didn't tell Gavi that Panchita(not sure that what his mom called him) is actually Freddie the free loader and married to Sofia(of the Montalvos)and the son of her best amiga?
I'm now beginning to like Pammy..She's really smarter than I thought..Obviously that red hair color has not totally damaged her brain..She's got the "goods" on Aaron..Yeah..
Alonso reminds me of Aldo on LFMB..Is he an angel too?

Thanks, Tash^^^I am getting muy weary of these harpies. Minervaaa can throw a fit like nobody else. And here we go again with Elvira back in the picture. I will be happy to see her get punished for her malice and interfering. Rodrigooo again is back in the 7th grade , head-over-heels in amor and wanting to go steady with the prettiest girl in his study hall. Here's a word of advice Rod....Before you go to the big pep rally, GET A DIVORCE, hombre....then, you may have a chance at a varon , happiness , and some lovin'. Obessession is in the air. Beckster-I was really amazed when Mo had Andres whack Paco in ''Amar sin Limites.'' It is a little confusing watching several characters with roles in 2 telenovelas at the same time. I hope that ''Destilando'' starts moving along , and we get some thrills and chills soon. The whole celibacy thing for the 2 leads is bringing me down. Basta.

ExportRed... just a wild guess here - Clarita probably doesn't want to do or say anything that will get Gaviota curious about what's going on with the Montalvo women, since any move on Gavi's part could get her fired and then their precious jumbo TV would be back at the pawnshop again.
Or it could be that she just forgot. Maybe she'll mention it later.
It'd be different if Clarita had any clue that Gaviota ever met the guy, but I don't think that's the case.
I do know that Frankie has heard of the horrible plague known as Gaviota and/or Mariana Franco, but since he knows her only as "Jennifer," it could be a while before those dots get connected. But when it finally happens, it will be QUITE the Kodak moment.
In fact, we have so many Kodak moments ahead of us, I hope they happen over a period of several weeks, instead of all getting crammed into the final week (or pretty much the final day, in the case of LFMB). I love an action-packed final, but I think a slower burn would be more satisfying.

Oh - who else (besides people watching the Boston station) gets the Sauna Twin commercial? There's a guy in that ad who I would swear is Francisco de la Vega.
Just wanted to say about the Blue Mountain coffee, my brother-in-law tried it on a trip to Jamaica and loved it. He brought some back and shared some with me and I have to say (not to sound like Alonso) that it really is some of the best coffee I've ever had. I found it funny to see it "advertised" on Destilando. Expensive though... whew!

Thank you,Julie.. You're probably right on the reason for Clarita to keep her mouth closed..Gavi can hardly get out of neutral on a new job before she's kicked to the curb..It makes a lot of sense..
Do those harpies and bitches come three to a "bag"..They are always together, with Fedra bringing up the rear...Thanks again...Maureen
PS: That's a classic comment about the "TV" going to the pawnshop..Funny..

Great recap! I wonder if Frenkie is ashamed of his mother...when does he ever see her? What a jerk he is!
Those witch/hyenas sure are thick as thieves...right now. Wait till Sofia and Minnie find out that Isa fooled around with their hubbies!!!Hee,Hee!

Those three witches are so dumb I want to strangle them. If they all hate Gavi so much why don't they take the tried and true path in Novelaland and hire someone to run her down. Give me crazy Joss any day over these three. That woman knew how to get what she wanted. If they were men I'd suspect they spent their childhoods pulling wings off butterflies. And yes when the truth about Isa and her sleep around habit comes out there is going to be hell to pay and my money's on Minnie.
Can Rod get any more idiotic. The grade school phone calls and mooning around. Grow a set of cajones man and get a divorce. And gavi's continual push pull leading him on doesn't make her very admirable in my books.

LOL at the reference to crazy Joss. So true. Just by coincidence I was checking something about MDF and noticed it was subtitle Las Hienas and haven't the members of the witches coven been called Hyenas. Just love it.
Gabi does get on my nerves sometimes as well but the biggest irritant on the entire show is James. I have to mute the sound and fast forward my way past any scene with him in it. Can't decide if he is doing a fantastic acting job or one other worst ever.

Profesor Girafales and Dona Florinda moment- FUNNY! It was cute - like when your a teen talking on the phone with a boyfriend and you acted like you were talking to a girlfriend so your parents wouldn't know. Those two act like they are 15 YEARS OLD! Why, Why,Why do I love this novela so?....ahh yes RODS BOD!
I think that if Francisco's mom worked for the wealthy, he is bitter with the wealthy people and therefore, he wants to degrade sophie by having her do the maid's work. Sort of getting even for his mother??? I now see a resemblence of Alonso to Aldo. If you look at them sideways, their hair looks the same. Also, Alonso swoons over coffee and Aldo over his cookbook sabor.

So I was researching the name Mariana (future baby name?) and found this article in Wikipedia. It says there is a character named "Mariana of the Moated Grange" that appears in a Shakespere work who and I quote "In Shakespeare's work, Mariana waits in a grange for her lover, who has deserted her." I thought that was a cool similarity.

Thanks for a fun recap Tash. Pamela is like most of the females they have on, they lose their minds completely when they fall in "love" with someone. Speaking of unappealing, Rod's stupidity is still sooo unbecoming.
Seems to me that Frankie is shame based. He's trying real hard to be someone else...

thanks for your comments! :)
i never thought about the frankie wanting to get back to the rich part...hmm...interesting. i still think though, that frankie wants sofie to pack his bags because he's convinced he's got royal blood and is disgusted by whom he calls lowerclass people, aka, the servants. notice how he never mingles with his mom; he just doesn't think he's on that level. so why would he want to take revenge for her sake? i think he's got a mental problem, more than need for revenge of the rich. i definitely think frankie's shame-based.... sadly.

LOL, JB - I know you're right about Frankie trying to be another person... I'm just not sure he realizes that the person he's trying to be sounds like a lunatic. Two changes of clothing per day at an agave ranch? LOL!
I notice he also asked Rodrigo for a jacuzzi (Rod: "we'll see") and a car (Rod: "you can use one of the trucks at the ranch"). Later, when Minnie said she didn't want the jacuzzi at the Miami house, I thought, hmmm, I know someone who needs a jacuzzi...
Trivial details, but they made me snicker. I'm glad Rod knows how to deal with a gold-digging BIL. Maybe someday he'll crack down on his wife's parents too!
BTW, thanks Tash for the American Red Cross link - you were very thoughtful to include that!

I thought Isa had already said she had a sonogram and the baby was a boy. Does anyone else think that if indeed it is a boy, Aaron might step up and try to claim the baby as his?

Frankie isn't psycho or stupid, he is just an opportunist..he wants better and will use people to get what he wants...so far it seems to have worked out pretty well for him.
Everything that has happened these people have allowed to happen...Sofie is very willing to see Gavi as an opportunist, yet would never view Frankie in the same light.
Not to say that I don't think Frankie is swarmy..but jeez, between Pilar and Sofie..it is like they were asking for it

I think Frankie is just a slime. You could see it in the way he acted toward his mother, he conned her out of her hard earned cash and split without a backward glance.
His treatment of Sophie is in keeping with his predator-type character. With those he feels are weaker, he takes as much as he can. For those he views as stronger, he tries to sidestep around, avoiding confrontation as much as possible.
What surprises me the most is the way that the elder members of the family seem to have blinders on when they deal with him. Rich people don't stay rich if they can't spot con-artists and take effective action against them. Compare their "blind acceptance" of Francisco De La Vega, simply on his name, to the American series "Gilmore Girls", where the grandparents knew the pedigree back five or six generations of every boy that Rory even thought of having a relationship with! I just can't believe that they are not aware of the fact that the De La Vega line is defunct.
As for Rod, I think we all know what happens to the little huevitos when you use the steroids a little too frequently. He won't grow any until the "ultima capitulos" so they can wrap the story up.
