Amar Thursday and Friday
Friday - I have a horribly busy weekend and an exam for school coming up this week and I have this nagging feeling like I won't be able to recap Friday's show. If anyone can chip in with what happened Friday too, I would be forever in your debt. Thanks to all you Amar viewers (all 10 of us) for your patience and support!
EDIT - Jestena has saved my bacon once again, she posted a detailed recap for Friday, I'll copy it here. (If anyone can let us know what happened Thursday, Jestena has a lot of info here but feel free to add, that would still be great, thanks.)

Friday, October 26. GSD Gets to Have a Dialog with Ines Instead of a Monologue
Previously, Julio sent bridal gown designs via Ceci for Azul to choose from for her soon-to-be wedding. One of those happens to be Diego's creation. I wonder which one she'll choose?
Casa Mo 2: Mo and Azul talk about Ines' continued coma. Mo offers to pay the hospital bill but Azul doesn't accept. They discuss Silvana's visits with Caty. (I now recall that yesterday Silvana brought a doll for Caty that looked like her deceased mother, in an effort to get Caty to talk about the accident. Mo didn't like the idea and as I recall discourages Silvana from visiting. Silvana thinks it's because of Azul.) Now Mo asks if Azul has had any issues with Silvana. Azul admits she doesn't like Silvana and that Silvana is one of Diego's little honeys. Mo seems surprised by that info.
Hospital: Julio is telling Arnaldo that he'll gladly help with Ines' hospital expenses, when a doctor tells them he must speak with them urgently.
Casa Emilia: GSD is raging to Emilia for suggesting (in yesterday's episode) that they disconnect Ines from life supports. All the Toscanos were furious with her for butting in with that suggestion. Today, Emilia is saying that since Ines took pills to kill herself, they should not try to go against her wishes. (Which from a therapist, I just don't know what to say.) Just then GSD gets a call from Arnaldo saying Tia Ines is awake at last. GSD says he's on his way there, while it's Emilia's turn to look impactada at the news.
Casa Mo 2: Mo spins a yarn to Azul regarding the dear departed Leo's disappearance, saying that she felt displaced and could not accept that Andres planned to marry Ceci. He also claims Leo just confessed to him her amorous adventures with Andres. Mo has an envolope which he pretends is a goodbye letter from Leo in which Leo said she'll only return for Mo's funeral. He conveniently doesn't let Azul see the letter, of course.
Hospital: Arnaldo and Julio welcome Ines back to the land of consciousness. Ines recalls that she was very lonely and could not think of one reason to live. Even though Arnaldo tells her he adores her and wants her to get well,she shouts out that she didn't want to be saved. I'm just glad Emilia wasn't there to say, "I told you so", as Arnaldo would have really gone off. And I would have been right there with him.
Boutique: Diego and Chucho are discussing designs for Julio's fashion show when Ceci basically tells Diego he should just stick to being a tailor and leave the designing to Julio. Gaspar puts her in her place. And by the way, Ceci has some kind of mullet top hairdo which I think makes her look kind of weird and severe.
Hospital: Arnaldo continues to encourage Ines to try to regain her will to live, and to once again play her cello. He says that everyone, and especially GSD, has been at her bedside concerned about her. Suddenly Ines realizes she cannot move her right hand or arm.
Anibal's office: Clemencia has been talking by phone to Diego who cannot come to help her move back to Casa Moran because of his work at the boutique. Anibal overhears and offers to help Clemencia with the move.
Hospital: The doctor is explaining that Ines' paralysis is only temporary and should pass with time and treatment. Ines is agitated thinking they are lying to her and she'll never be able to play her beloved cello again. In the midst of this angst, Emilia arrives and I'm thinking that in her place I'd feel like an interloper or a pain in the butt.
Boutique: Diego and Chucho cannot find Diego's wedding dress design anywhere in their little workshop. Now where could it be?
Casa Mo 2: Azul and Ceci are looking over the wedding dress designs sent over by Julio, when lo and behold, Azul falls in love with the (unbeknownst to her) Diego creation, calling it the wedding dress she always dreamed of. After a commerical we see Ceci talking disparagingly of Diego's designer ambtions. Azul says the shame of it is that Diego is truly talented and could have made it without riding the coattails of Eva Santora.
Boutique: Diego and Chucho promise Julio they'll work around the clock if necessary to get his collection done in time for the fashion show. That Chucho is such a sweetie. I love his friendship with Diego.
Hospital: Emilia assures Ines that she's glad to see her so recuperated as everyone has been worried about her. Ines snorts that she appreciates the sentiment but doesn't believe Emilia is really sincere. Arnaldo with cold politeness shows Emilia the door. GSD goes to arrange Ines' dishcharge from the hospital for the following day (Anyone else think this is a tad premature?), Ines says "Nothing has changed", GSD is still with his new woman. Emilia feels neither Emilia nor Azul really care about her, but Arnaldo assures her Azul does care and would have been there already except for their worry about her recent fainting spells.
Casa Mo 2: Azul, Ceci and Caty discuss wedding plans. Caty will be a flower girl but for now Azul says they will just have a civil ceremony and a church wedding later. Just as she's wishing Tia Ines could be there, she gets a call from Arnaldo with the good news of Ines' awakening. She shares the tidings with Ceci and Caty. Smiles all around.
Hospital corridor: Emilia apologizes to GSD for interloping, and for having suggested disconnecting the life supports. GSD says that yes, even though Ines' arm is affected, what counts is that she's alive. He's smooching Emilia and saying he's glad she came, when the doctor interrupts the love fest to remind GSD that Ines needs much moral support to prevent a suicical relapse. GSD looks to Emilia as if for understanding. She nods in agreement.
Casa Mo 2: Andres and Mo are discussing their cover story about Leo's departure when Azul comes in to tell them her aunt has awakened. she has a sudden bout of weakness but she and Ceci leave for the hospital. Caty has shown Mo the sketch of the wedding dress and Mo tells Andres he'll take charge of the dress himself to prevent Azul from seeing Diego at the boutique.
Casa Diego & Chucho: As Clemencia is retrieving her suitcase, she assures Anibal she'll continue to work for him even though Manuel does not approve. Anibal doesn't want to cause any problems for her, but she says she's happy to be able to earn her own money and not be dependent on Manuel if she wants to buy as much as a stick of gum or "tutti frutti". They both laugh and I'm thinking they make a nice looking couple.
Casa Moran: Piero comes by to try to make up with Lidia. Manuel says his daughter does not want to see him now that he's getting intimate with Lucia again. Is he? I don't know. Manuel somehow manages to let Piero think he's on his side and will work on Lidia and also keep his reconciliation with Lucia a tomb-like secret from Clemencia in exchange for a well paying little job. Piero agrees to get him in on work he's preparing to do for Mo.
Hospital: Azul and Ines have an emotional reunion. Ines tries to apologize and explain about her relationship with GSD, but Azul says that she's promised God she'll forgive and forget and she loves Ines. They hug and cry some more.
Hospital cafeteria. GSD tells Emilia he recognizes that he was unjust to Ines in all their years together as he never acknowledged her before his children and kept their relationship a secret because of his cowardice. Plus he basically just dumped her without even trying to arrange things between them. Emilia asks if he's going to arrange things now with Ines while hurting her (Emilia). GSD swears that Emilia's his woman and that he loves her and only asks for her support as he helps Ines. They nuzzle a little.
Casa Moran: Manuel is sprawled in a chair like the lord of the manor as Clemencia struggles in with her heavy suitcase. Rather than helping her, he demands to know who belonged to the male voice he heard outside. He goes a little ballistic when he learns it was Anibal and warns Clemencia that Anibal is a wife-chasing degenerate or something of the sort. Clemencia says she's a faithful wife, and slyly adds that besides, Anibal is going out with Isela. Manuel does not look delighted at this news flash. Clemencia asks for his help taking her suitcase upstairs, and ever the gentleman, Manauel huffs, "Who, me?"
Casa Silvana & Isela: Silvana is telling Isela she cannot continue with Flavio as she doesn't love him. just then the man of the hour arrives with groceries to prepare them a nice meal to celebrate a surprise he has for them. Silvana turns away from his kiss saying this is no time to celebrate. Just then the door opens and who should dance in happily, but Gloria. Silvana's mouth makes a perfect "O" and she says incredulously, "Mama?"After a commercial break, Flavio has cooked his meal and he and Gloria are chatting merrily away while Silvana and Isela sit with dour expressions. Gloria annonces she has returned because her prince charming turned into a toad. Flavio tells Gloria that Silvana is now his girlfriend and Isela his mother-in-law. Gloria is happy about the girlfriend thing but says the only suegra in the room is herself. Silvana straightens Gloria out that while she was off with her toad prince, Isela had become a mother to her and was in fact her new roommate. Silvana and Gloria wind up arguing in the bedroom with Gloria demanding that Silvana tell Isela to pack up and go.
Boutique: Azul and Ceci are showing Julio the wedding gown design Azul has chosen when Diego enters and sees that it's his very own design. The girls praise Julio for his talent in creating such a wonderful gown and Azul says it's as if it were designed just for her. Julio does nothing to diaabuse them of their mistake while Diego looks as if he's in physical pain.
Hospital cafeteria: Arnaldo agrees to spend the night at the hospital but wonders why GSD wouldn't let Azul stay as she had offered. GSD says something about her health, but then gets vague when Arnaldo asks why he's so preoccupied about Azul's health. GSD denies it's anything serious but he and Emilia exchange looks.
Boutique: Azul asks to have the wedding dress made up for the next day, and Ceci says, looking pointedly at Diego, that Aazul has to get married immediately to avoid temptations. When did she become such a little witch? After they leave, Diego wants to know cómo the hell Azul got her hands on his design. He doesn't want her to wear his design to marry Mo, but Julio says trabajo is trabajo and Diego has to help him out here just as Julio did in giving him and Chucho work. Diego does a double nose wrinkle of frustration.
Casa Silvana, Isela, & now Gloria: Silvana and Gloria argue back and forth in a bedroom that Isela is or is not going to leave. Silvana says she's not going to change her life every five minutes on Gloria's whims. In the living room poor Flavio is leaving. He tries to kiss Silvana but she turns away and he looks hurt. After he leaves the Isela-is-or-is-not leaving argument continues with Gloria saying Isela will have to sleep on the couch as not even God and all the archangels could move her (Gloria) from her own bedroom. She does turn a colorful praise, that one.
Boutique: Chucho verifies to Diego that Julio had asked if the wedding dress design was Diego's. I think Chucho says Julio will have to give credit to Diego during the fashion show.
Hospital: Julio gives Arnaldo a substanial check to pay Ines' hospital bill. Arnaldo is touched but reluctant to accept. Julio gently insists. He's really good with Arnaldo but when Arnaldo asks how Diego's doing at the boutique, Julio says he's an o.k. tailor but has no creativity as a designer. What a liar. They both agree that one has to keep an eye on Diego and work him like a dog, otherwise he'd be expecting to have everything handed to him on a silver platter as per his sugar momma, Eva.
Casa S. I. & G.: Gloria is splayed out on her former bed saying she won't be moved and Isela will have to sleep in the armchair. Silvana says Isela will sleep in the spare bed in her room. Gloria is dismayed Silvana prefers to share a room with Isela than with her own mother.
Boutique: (Last Scene) Diego tells Chucho that Julio said he cannot give Diego credit in this fashion show because his clients are paying for the exclusive Julio brand, but has promised to give him credit in the next collection. Chucho worries that Julio is taking advantage of Diego, but Diego says he's at least being given the chance to learn. He vows that someday he'll have his own business, no matter how long it takes. He and Chucho do that cute knuckle-tapping thing. Twice. I'd really like to have Chucho as my old pal.

I can fill in what happened Friday, but Thursday's episode is erased from my VCR - and my mind. I'll post Friday's here in your comments later today.

Chucho has become the perfect replacement for Abuelito. I like his crinkly eyed smiles and constant encouragement of Diego.
So is Julio playing Arnaldo on the issue of Diego's design talent (or lack thereof) so Arnaldo can't run to Azul and tell her and if yes, is it just to get her and Mo's business by keeping Diego's role at low profile and the Eva patronage covert as well. Or, is he really stealing credit for Diego's design to puff his own prestige and ego??? I'm searching for motivation here... Julio seems like such a great guy to me but he isn't 100% pure for sure. We don't really know what the riff was about in Brazil do we or was that a just not ready for commitment moment?
I enjoy Diego's interactions with Chucho, and, in fact, I think he's at his best and most natural with his friends. I especially like how he affectionately calls them "Delincuente". His circle includes young, old, gay and straight and he's loyal and fun with all of them. I wish they'd come up with a nice girlfriend for Chucho, but all the older women are taken or neurotic or both.
Since this was actually Ferro's spot, I forced myself not to drool over Andres in this recap, but I must say I love his scruffy bearded look too. Let's see, we've seen him in suits, casual attire and boxers and he's rocked all those looks. I would even have taken the beat down bruised Andres if I'd had the chance.
theme, with Spanish lyrics of course.
Jesteno. I'm thinking it might be a tad more subtle than just hanging a "Reserved" sign around his neck.
