Destilando Amor - Sept. 13, 2007 grumbles, mumbles, rumbles, and oo-la-la!

EPISODE - Sept. 13, 2007:
* Pancho meets with Zamiro at the local cantina - they negotiate a backdoor, shady, underhanded deal for sulfate at the hacienda.

* In his car, Rod sits and listens to Gavi explain to him about Minnie and Isa's plotting with Susy to have her fired from the Agave commission. He's upset and disillusioned. She wants to go home - he has a better idea. They leave.

* SW meets James in the hall. SW senses James' depression and mentions Acacia's situation. James walks away. When Sofia comes through, SW stops her and starts to inform Sofia about Acacia and James' marriage, Acacia's mental health problems, her child abuse at the hand of her uncle Meliton. Sofia is impactado.

* James in his bed alone, thinking about his latest visit with Acacia at the sanitarium. They were laughing and she was enjoying her lollipop (or was it a fruit pop) when she suddenly drops the red pop on the ground and starts to freak out. James cries over how helpless he is with Acacia.

* SW and Sofia walk downstairs to the living room area - SW continues to bring Sofia up-to-date about Acacia and James' legal situation (Acacia killed her uncle and James' involvement).

* Elvis and Dani join Granny P in the dining room. Elvis offers Granny one of his special cookies he brought. Dani convinces her to try one. She does, and sort of likes it. Maid enters to say that Don Roberto is there to see Granny P. They are impactado and curious why Don Roberto is there. Granny leaves to meet with him. In the living room, Granny P meets with Don Roberto. Don Roberto informs Granny P about Minnie and Isa's plot against Gavi. Dani sneaks up to the door and eavesdrops on the conversation.

* Driving in the car, Gavi continues to fill Rod in on the details of the plot that Minnie and Isa put together. Then she shocks him with the details of how they got Don Roberto's secretary Susana to work with them on it.

* Dani eavesdrops on the conversation between Don Roberto and Granny P. Don Roberto tells her that Minnie and Isa's schemes are becoming a problem at the commission. He asks her for her help in dealing with the ladies. Granny P, furious, agrees to do that. Before Don Roberto can leave, Dani pops into the room - Granny P. isn't happy and wants her to leave, she introduces herself to Don Roberto. Elvis enters and Dani introduces him to Don Roberto also. Granny P. promises Don Roberto to handle Minnie and Isa. Don Roberto leaves. Granny P. tells Dani and Elvis not to do or say anything. She will call an emergency family meeting for tomorrow and she will handle Minnie and Isa herself.

* Aaron and Minnie are in the midst of another of their debates when the call from Granny P interrupts. Aaron answers the phone - he notes Granny is furious about something, and agrees to be at the family meeting tomorrow at the mansion.

* Rod and Gavi continue talking in the car.

* Isa is upset on the phone with her dad about Rod. Sofia walks in and Isa unloads her fury about Rod's intention to divorce her and his attitude towards her father. Sofia tries to defend her brother. Isa is still furious. Sofia answers the phone - it's Granny P about the family meeting tomorrow at the mansion - Sofia says she and Pancho will be there, Isa will be there also. Sofia starts to ask about Granny P's anger, Granny P. hangs up on her.

* In the car, Rod is furious about Isa and can't stand to be married to her anymore. Gavi uses reason to persuade Rod to stay calm and don't sacrifice himself or anything over her. Rod is afraid of losing Gavi. Rod reveals his jealousy over Alonso taking her home, taking her and her mom to dinner, etc. Gavi explains to him that Alonso is her boss - they work together - that's it, nothing more. Rod is still jealous and wants to be the only man in her life. Gavi reminds Rod that he is married and has a child; they can be platonic friends for the next three months, and that she will not become his mistress. Gavi comes up with her own compromise plan - which includes him being respectful and professional towards her and her job (no more bothersome embarrassing outbursts). He agrees, then comes up with his own compromise plan - A, B (he holds her hand), C (he hugs her). She stops him before he kisses her. He laughs and then explains D. She mentions B again. They kiss.

* Aaron and Minnie discuss the phone call from Granny P - and what they plan to do about Isa and Rod.

* Rod helps Gavi from his car. They kiss. They say good-night. They kiss again. Gavi enters the apartment building. Rod stands by the car, enchanted.

* Clara is upset as she sits on the sofa as Gavi enters the apartment. Gavi leans in to kiss her mom's cheek - Clara moves away and starts to scold her for worrying her like that. Gavi tells Clara what the problem is with Rod divorcing Isa, that her romance with Rod continues, Clara mentions Alonso and then panics about Gavi's resignation. Gavi assures Clara that she didn't resign, instead she has a very important position working on the huge agave assembly conference coming up, she is also going to start plotting her revenge against Isa and Minnie.

* After calling the condo and not finding Rod there, Isa hangs up and is totally furious. She explodes on Sofia about her recurrent nightmare that Rod is with Gavi.

* Rod returns home to the condo. Enriqueta gives him the message that Isa called and will return tomorrow with their son Rico. Rod alone reads the card from Elvis and Dani - he opens the package - it's a painting of Gaviota. He's enchanted.

* Gavi fills Clara in on all the juicy details of Isa and Minnie's plot against her. Clara is on the edge of her chair, listening. Gavi is fuming.

* Hilario and his two dates enter a bar and sit down. One orders a "coca-cola"(I think). Hilario orders a tequila - the other lady asks if they can share a bottle. Hilario agrees. The waiter brings over the drinks and the bottle of Cazadores tequila.

* Inside the hacienda, Sofia says good-night to Isa and goes to bed.

* Outside by the back door, Pancho and Zamiro and his men are finishing up their transaction deal - the sulfate for the money, which Pancho folds up and puts in his pocket.

* Rod answers the phone - a hang up. He checks, it's from the hacienda. He grumbles about Isa.

* In the living room, Isa starts to seduce Pancho. She pulls back as he just starts to get all hot and bothered - he wants to kiss her now. She asks him to run away with her after she returns from Mexico City. She is going to confront Rod and get her divorce and then they can be together as a nice little family. Pancho is nervous and needs time to think. Isa pulls him out of the room - to a quiet place with no witnesses.

* In bed, Minnie checks her temp. She smiles. She wakes Aaron. He tries to roll over and go back to sleep. She orders him to wake up and make love.

* In the hacienda pantry storage room, Pancho and Isa have hot-hot sex (Oo-la-la!) They take a short break - camera reveals that Isa gave Pancho a bright red hickie on his neck. They return to their love-making.

* Rod, in bed, dreaming of his latest kiss with Gavi. He murmurs to himself, I love you Gaviota. This waiting with Isa will be hell.

* Gavi sits in bed, thinks to herself about Rod.

* Minnie and Aaron discuss her getting pregnant right away, and what to do about little Rico. Minnie has an idea - kidnap the kid and send him out of the country, then they can adopt a son to pass off as their son - to become the heir. Aaron hates the idea and tells her off - he only wants a son of his own. Minnie tries to convince him that her idea will work. He is adamant about having a son of his own.

Thanks for the quick recap JR. OK I knew that Aaron and Minnie are crazy wicked but realizing Minnie wants to kidnap little Ricky (and she doesn't even know her BFF slept with her husband) was a shock. Wow, I guess that's why they're the baddies. Dang, with friends like Isa and Minnie at least you know your enemies too.

Abuela on the war path. Tomorrow looks like fun.
 

I think Acacia dropped a candy apple in that scene. I wonder what Elvis painted- if its a painting of Gavi, Rod better get it out of that house before Izzy gets a hold of it!I think Aaron told Minnie that he didn't care if the baby had his blood or not- he said he is only cares about the inheritance- correct me if I am wrong.It was a pretty good episode full of antics from the zany Montalvos...I don't know HOW Gavi was able to hold back from Rod - he is SO FINE! Great REcap!
 

Thanks for the Recap. I too agree with natalia3 that I understood that Aaron is willing to show up with any old baby. In fact he ordered Minnie to announce her pregnancy tomorrow at the family emergency meeting that Abuela has called. I guess pesos are thicker than blood, lots thicker for our materialboy. He is still being cagey about the Rod/Isa baby, but seemed to hint that he can overturn the inheritance claim. He could always claim it is his, don't think he knows about Hilario or the Francisco connections yet.
I further agree with natalia3 that I would not be able to turn Rod down, he just exudes sex appeal.
 

I agree with you both about Rod and his sex appeal. On a related topic of sex appeal, I found a link to a trailer for "Pasion" on the TW website. Happy viewing.

Let me know if it works for you all.

you're very welcome. i was writing this as the episode was airing, so every so often I would still be writing fast and furious on one scene and it would switch to another scene before I was done. so thanks for clarifying the thing Acacia dropped and what Aaron was grumbling to Minnie about. (shoot, when it comes to Sergio, I can't understand anything he says - he needs to take some major enunciation lessons from Eduardo and Fernando).

J.R. :)

P.S. if you are interested in viewing Pasion video clips, just go to youtube.com and type in colunga pasion. there's now three pages worth of videos to enjoy.
 

Thanks JR. I always enjoy your recaps. Each of you have your own style and all are A+ in my book. Glad you mentioned about Aaron's enunciation. I wonder if that is his real voice or is he trying to sound angry and on edge. If so, he's overdoing it. Despite his terrible enunciation, I'd take him anyday. For me, he has more than his share of sex appeal. We wouldn't have to talk:)
 

Thanks for the recap!!! I don't know about you all, but notice how with Isa and Frankie, it's all about hot sex, but with Rod and Gavi, it's pure love. Boy, when Rod and Gavi had their kissing scene in the car, I'm surprised the windows didn't fog up!!!!
 

Yes, Becky^^^Rodrigooo and Gavi win...they have the best love...the pure, hot, sexy love. I get a big kick out of Minerva and AAron...they have the I-hate-you-but-we-need-a-varon-to-get-the-money kind of love. And Isa and Frankie have the we-are-both-really-worthless-and-shallow-so-where-do-you-want-the-hickey kind of love. Hilario is living large..2 chicas...count them...2 chicas...and a big bottle of tequila. Life has become good for our young ranchhand. I wonder if we'll ever get to see that portrait of Gavi, I hope Elvis's style does not mimic Picasso or we might see a Gavi with 3 breasts and 4 arms. Maybe she'll be wearing that spikey agave headpiece in the portrait.
 

I must have missed something earlier. When did San Juana learn the story of Acacia and the murder that she recited to Sofia? The last I remember James found Acacia unconscious and he took her into seek medical help. Then she really went off the deep end and evidently is now spending her time in a mental facility, alternating between childishness, stark terror, and rage. So how did San Juana get the low down on the situation? Did she overhear James telling Rodrigo? Or is it common knowledge to everyone? JudyG
 

Judy G. you bring up a great point about San Wanna and I was thinking the same thing. We know she's a gossip but through gossip often detailed get twisted (and she got too much right) so I guess we're supposed to believe she overhead James and Rod talking.
 

Thanks for the recap...I missed the ending..Thank you Pres. Bush., let me see listen to a speech or see Frankie get a hickey? Hmmmm well call me shallow but....

Don't you like how they are setting poor Meeeester James up to be the sad husband? I mean granted Acacia was loco anyway, but I'm sure leaving her alone with her crime for four days didn't really help. But this will give he and the selfless Sofie a chance to have pity love.

Ps..I'm still gonna be looking for that hickey tonite
 

Rod better hide that painting of Gaviota or it'll be ribbons when Isa gets through stabbing it with her (I was going to say kitchen knife but I don't believe Isa would know where the kitchen is)....hmmm, in fact now I know where Rod could hide the painting in plain sight with no fear of it being discovered...

J.R. - Thanks for your excellent and detailed recap. I am like the little kid in the back with the right answer raising my hand wildly. I am so into the show and then the recaps that I love to analyze and correct or be corrected about what happens.

And for sure Aaron is difficult to get the first round of watching with his sputters and hisses, he is like an old teapot whistling. He is soooo handsome, he has to have some annoying qualities to convey what a demon he really is. I just hope he doesn't have an aneurysm on his brain that suddenly splats all over the bedroom.
 

The scene with Hilario and the tequila -- an obvious product placement -- was halarious! One of Hil's dates asked for a Gaviota Negra (black seagull). The waiter then recited the recipe for this drink for the benefit of the viewing audience(I think he said coke with tequila) and mentioned the tequila by brand name before placing the full bottle of it with the label facing the camera on the table.
 

Your recap saved me, JR. Univision, and some other channels, weren't available from my cable co. last night. I was steamed!!
OK, recalling my younger days, but did anyone else laugh and wonder if Elvis had a secret ingredient in his cookies? Pilar really could use some!
Looking forward to Pilar reading the riot act to the Montalvo brujas - again.
 

Great recap--thanks to all who write them. Did I get this incorrect? I thought Elvis was telling Pilar something about when everyone eats the special cookies, their skin turns the same color, and they are all the same. James brought Acacia to the hacienda for a few days (before the asylum), so San Juana saw here then and later overheard the details, I think.

Elvis said the special ingredient was amaranth seeds. According to this Wikipedia article, they're very very good for you (a complete protein for vegetarians, with cholesterol-lowering properties), but apparently don't possess any special "entertainment" potential. ;-)
 

Regarding SanWanna's knowledge of the Acacia situation, I thought that Roman had reluctantly filled her in on some of the details around the time she tried to serve Acacia some soup. ICBW.
 

Also (this is my last comment for now, I promise) - I love watching Granny Pilar snap into action.

She just sits there like a clueless piece of furniture for the longest time, then every once in a while she seems to come to life, accomplish something, and then go back into standby mode as quickly as possible.

I'd say it was bad writing or lazy acting, except that I know real people who are the same way.
 

Julie - ah, amaranth...too bad :)
And I also get a kick watching Pilar "full steam ahead".
 

great recap!

why is Isa out to get Gavi, since she doesn't want Rod and wants to run away with Pancho?

I just guess I never understood, especially since she got what she wanted (ricky and her dad is out of jail, an a cushy lifestyle).
 

On the way to work today I heard part of an interview with a movie script writer (on NPR)who said, that he was told that all movies, operas, plays, follow a path of building to a "Gran Fin" because it relates back to the primitive desire to mate (I swear) & that the journey is fun, but there must be a satisfying climax in the end..in order for viewers to be happy.

so this made me think..I guess that is why I would rather see some crazy over the top ending..see Mundo or the one were the couple sailed over the cliff (at least I laughed), than some blah ending like LFMB...no fireworks just sputter..or the one were the lady ended on doll island and the couple ended up on the captainless yacht...I hope Destilando does not let me down...you gotta have vengence & hawt stuff, not just everybody is all happy & nice & gets along...
 

Beckster---Makes sense to me.
 

Amaranth seed, eh? Shows how good my Spanish is. LOL. Thanks, Julie.

Linda T.
 

You know you've gone too far into tnvla land when you try to say "a sus ordenes" and "con permiso" to your boss, when neither of you are fluent in Spanish. :)
 

Aaron is really just evil, hissing, sexy, but evil. He is proposing to use just any baby, because he is sick to death of all of My Nerva's fertility stuff. hasta el copete! (I think My Nerva is so hasta el copete, but for other reasons.. I digress). That means that he could not unveil the Ricky is no Montalvo and I know it because of DNA plan since it would invite him to have to prove it for his own. Therefore, I think that he would have to do in Lil Ricky.
VV.
