Juan Q - Wed 11-14 Some people just shouldn't drink....

Before we get to the recap, I have to share with you something I found today. Amanda clued us in to Mayrin's likely Bond Girl appointment and well, I discovered these which might help to explain why. I realized her daily canteloupe show pales in comparison and is rather PG compared to what she's capable of, and oh we've been living quite a sheltered life at Farell. After all, as a straight woman I don't routinely search for such delights, so who knew. I thought about not even posting these because they are almost over the top, (and I hope they don't violate a blog rule), but they were just so impressive I had to share, plus I figured I'd give an eye tac[a] to the guys... so enjoy. HOLY COW! That's all I can say.






Juan continues snapping fotos and Kike runs over to him asking why he's not been using the flash, you know that little light that comes out to take a foto. Juan laughs at him and says but the camera is automatic and that he's offended, he and photography are one and the same and of course he knows what he doing. Kike reminds him this is his night and to please not leave him without any fotos. After he walks away to go kick up his heels on the dance floor (dar le al taconazo), Juan discovers the flash when he opens it up in his own face.

Drunk Alirio smahes into Juan and gets all offended as if Juan did it on purpose. Juan tries to calm him and Ali says he's as calm as a water tank and because he's a good guy he'll forgives Juan for his offense. He does tell Juan that he he would still like to take on that guy over there with the little wig and spectacles. Juan can't imagine why he wants to punch out Pastor. Alirio continues that guy has him seeing red at the office and besides he has to practice all that Juan has shown him. Juan is impactado as says not with Pastor you can't practice! He notes to the Santo that this wasn't told to him, and he walks off with Alirio in a headlock.

Nid is chatting with some ladies remarking she only has one left now to get rid of and Nid wonders how long it will take to get rid of the bitter cucumber. She gets up to dance the Cachi bombon and Anga sees his opportunity and asks her to dance.

Marely pulls Yadi aside and remarks that Nid is being really rude and that Alirio is going to lose it from watching her dance with some stranger. Yadi isn't concerned and runs back to the dance floor.

Juan is chasing Alirio but CL stops him and asks where he's going that he's the soul of the party and he's missing it. Juan says he just doesn't feel like dancing right now. Cl says with Nid and Anga dancing out there, he thinks maybe instead Juan is afraid of looking small time. Juan says only the devil causes him fear and he tolerates that. He decides to go dance because it's the Cachibombon and he rivals no one at that and leaves the camera with CL. We are treated to a bunch of people watching Juan, Pau watching Cl and Cl sliding a smug look her way. Everyone else admires Juans dancing.

Ivonne and Pastor are watching and commenting how drunk Perafan is. Next we see a very tipsy Pau, and her Mom is after her to slow down on the vino. Pau says she's just happy and celebrating. Ana doesn't get it because she hardly knows Kike and Yadi isn't exactly her favorite either, if it was MArely's wedding maybe she'd buy it. Pau says it's love in the air so she is celebrating that. her Mom tries to tell her not to let CL bug her but she gets up and goes over to Cl and Moni.

Pau asks why they don't dance. CL says he doesn't feel like dancing. Mon goes to the powder room and Pau begins to mock how happy CL looks with his wife. Cl says "ex-wife" and she arrived at the last minute, and anyway he has no obligations, so what? Pau continues on a drunken rant and CL suggests that they should talk about this elsewhere. Pau says they have nothing to talk about here or anywhere else. He reminds her that she came up to him. He thinks she should leave the wine and yelling alone, and not cause a scandal in front of everyone. She tells him again to leave her alone, and he reminds her again that she came to him.

Juan and Marely are dancing in the background but both barely moving as they watch what is going on with Pau. They were really funny. Juan remarks to himself that he was thinking he was the center of the world out there dancing, in reality he was there because of CL, while CL is romancing his palomita. Just as Pau starts to yell louder about CL and Moni coming together, and they should dance together, like very civilized people, and that is quite an excuse for showing up with her, and moni has snuck up behind them observing, Ana comes over to retrieve Pau because they are serving the chilaquiles.

Juan tells himself that's how the party was going when he realized Pastor and Alirio were about to come to blows, so he decided he was going to intervene. He stops Pastor and tells him to please stop, that he's going to have to leave the party, Juan knows Perafan and that he's just going around really happy (andarse muy pipa) ready to dance flamenco and Pastor says well let him dance I'll give him the castenets. Juan tells him to please go, and Pastor says he's the drunk one, why do I have to leave? Juan reminds him that Alirio lives here so how is he going to leave? Pastor protests, and Juan begs him to do it for him because things are going to get worse, but Pastor still refuses to leave because of that Mammaracho (combo of borracho and mamarse - both meaning to be or get drunk).

Inside we see Pau fighting with her Mom again, who begs her to leave, and Pau shouts back that she's not 15 and can't be told when to leave parties. Ana tells her she's not 15 but she's acting like she's two. Ana's pleas aren't working and Pau runs off into the party again.

Nid is eating chilaquiles and Anga comes up behind her noting she still loves chilaquiles. She says he startled her and he says very suggestively that he used to give her another feeling. She tells him she is always in panic from him and was startled to see him unexpectedly show up como conejito de mango (I think this means with attractive little biceps) after 20 some years as if it were nothing. She wonders how he came to be there. He says he was invited, and asks her to speak in private. Just then Fer also comes up and says he has something he wants to discuss in private. Nid asks Fer if it has to be right now, and he says yes.

Luckily Nid is saved by the ring of the boxing bell as Pastor and Alirio decide to resolve their differences the old fashioned way and Alirio yells he's going to pull a flower from Pastor's garden. Nid remarks it's her husband and a pan through the crowd reveals that everyone is impactado.

Juan runs up and demands everyone calm down. Pastor keeps mocking that he's trembling from fear at Alirio. Eventually Pastor gets within reach around Juan and slugs Alirion one right in the kisser! Go Gaytan!!! Rocky music plays and the crowd claps.

Ana finally suceeds in getting Pau to leave after watching the fight so she doesn't end up the same.

Anga and Nid are in the study discussing why she married that Mammaracho. Anga knows her well enough that it wasn't becuase of love. She confirms it was because of life. He tells her he's never forgotten her and he knows she hasn't either and he wonders if they still have a chance together. She reminds him that he wouldn't respect her if she was capable of cheating on her husband, he says he doesn't know, and she says but they can be really good friends for now. And he says essentially whatever it takes to spend time with her, maybe even tomorrow. She says she has to think if she can, but, well where would it be?

Juan attempts to retire Perafan who protests and continues to insult Pastor.

Downstairs Yadi is upset that all the guests left because of Perafan and why he has to do this tonight and that it's just not fair. She yells at her Mom. Fer says they should put on music and keep dancing. Juan comes strolling in and says ok let's resume the party. He gets the sad news that everyone left because Per put the fly in the cake, and Marely chides that he really only cares about one guest in particular and yes, she's gone too.

CL pulls up in front of the apartment with Moni and she asks if she should pull out so he can have her space. As she gets out she notes Pau's car behind them and asks Cl about it. Cl denies it's her. OK, now it's a little scary how lax the drinking and driving enforcement is in Mexico, but I would have thought more of wet blanket Ana than to drive with her daughter in that condition without so much as a comment!

Ana yells at Pau that she's going to take a cab if Pau does something stupid such as see if Moni stays the night. Finally after a yelling match, Pau agrees to leave.

Moni watches her pull away at the window and says "Bye Bye Licenciada!" Cl wonders what she said as he comes up behind her and gives her a kiss on her neck. She tells him the view is what she likes about this apt., thanks for the drink, but I'm going and he lost any privileges with her when he signed the divorce, so "Bye Bye Licenciado."

Juan drives Yadi and Kike to the airport and asks if he is happy. Kike says he is and he's had a day, everything happened today, screams, happiness, partying, deception, annoyances, cries, faints, everything. He asks about Juan and if he got to talk to Pau, Juan says he's bitter about that subject so let's not talk about it.

Ana and Pau get home and Ana lets her have it that she's sunk the lowest of ever. She continues that Pau's acting crazy starting with the drinking and ending up with the stalking at the apt. Pau protests that her feelings aren't being considered and Ana doesn't bite and tells her enough and goes up to bed.

At the airport Juan bonds with Kike and sends them off on their honeymoon to Acapulco. He tells himself he is envious of their happiness and that a crazy idea has now occured to him. As he's driving he tells himself that sometimes it's better not to think about great ideas too much, because when you do, then you tend to put them somewhere where they never come to fruition. He says sometimes this is for the good of people, but othertimes it's bad. He says as they say in his town, if you don't risk an egg, you'll never get a chicken!

Fer is still at Nid's house. She wonders why he's still here, he is drunk too and wants her to explain why she's been so indifferent. He starts yelling for her to tell him the truth and tries to kiss her. He tells her he's dying for what she can do and she insists on talking to him tomorrow. Marely surprises them and wonders what's up. Fer says, ok fine, he'll go, but he'll be back. Nid tries to tell Marely it's nothing.

At Pau's we see her downing more vodka and she's still blasted. Juan rings the bell and she's happy to see him and asks him why he's here. When he says he didn't get to say good bye she laughs that he couldn't make up a better story than that. He says he came to talk to her about something. She's glad because she was as bored as a turtle in an aquarium.

Marely badgers Nid for the truth about Fer. She denies it at first but when Mar says she's not a fool, Nid says it's just their version of the story that something is up with Fer, and says she can't be blamed for being such a sensual figure etc. Mar is simply gagging.

Juan says something is in his head that he wants to tells her. Pau yells at Juan "who doesn't have something in their head like a pain and sadness from a loss of love, or has felt a betrayal. " Juan asks what her pain is, that CL has taken advantage of her? She says yes that he's found the perfect excuse to make my life hell. She admits maybe it's her fault, but he's going to move to Spain and didn't even ask how I felt about it. Juan tells himself that he came here supposedly to be comforted, and instead he's doing the comforting and really he doesn't know if he should hug or kiss her, or choke her!!

Nid chews out Alirio for being such a goof. Perafan tries to make amends, but then decides nevermind and asks her where she's trying to go with her complaints. Turns out he's going back on the couch!

Pau is crying about how he's at his apartment with his wife. Juan tells her that this is not how a man who loves her behaves and that she needs to get rid of him. Sure CL looks right, has money and power but in the end he's only a cage of gold (empty). He's sick of seeing her upset by this man and she needs to do something about it. She's not seeing the person who really does care about her.

She tells him to leave her alone, that he's right, but she wishes that both he and CL disappear and that she disappears too and stops feeling etc. Juan worries about that statement. We see Pau in the bathroom seeing things blurry. The next thing we know glass breaks and she collapses on the floor. Ana runs downstairs and Juan breaks down the door to find her knocked out.

TV y Novelas awards on Friday!! Yeah!!!

Whoah, thanks for that eye candy, yes, that explains why she might get the Bond gig. She should flaunt it while she's got it.

I love Angarita, he is smarter than everybody else on the show put together.
 

That was the best recap ever. Oh wait, there were words?
 

Yep, she’s got the goods to be a Bond Girl all right. And so flexible too. Go Mayrin…I hope she gets the gig.

It looked like Mayrin finally had some fun with her role, acting all sloshed and weaving around. I thought it was interesting that Juan was forced to play the same role with Paula that Marely had to play with him when his heart was broken, a shoulder to cry on and all that. Poetic justice!!

Hoo boy, when it rains it pours. Our Nidia has her hands full with Delirio, her current “aventura” Fernando, and now Angarita. The more she ignores Fernando the more enamored he becomes.

This was a great episode. K, you did a fantastic job translating all the conversations. I’m in awe.

Heh heh, I thought that would catch Ferro's eye.
 

Yes, K...thanks for the translations of those very colorful idioms...I must say I was totally perplexed by that "conejito de mango". How do they come up with these things!!??
And yes, I'm sure you made Ferro's day and also Oldman 54's with those racy pictures. She's quite the dish.

Judy B.
 

Thanks for the colorful, wink wink, and oh so well illustrated recap. I have good wishes for Mayrin too. I'm sure she will flaunt it well. Ferro, you are too, too funny. This one really was for you and our other galanes.
I am grateful for your well detailed recap because I was stuck in a hopeless traffic jam coming back from mi clase de Literatura Mexicana and so missed all but the last 10 minutes. The party sounded fun!!
I'm glad Angarita is getting more air time, yes, he is smarter than everbody else put together, but that's not a lot of IQ points to top.
 

Kris, whew! Thanks for the great recap! I made the mistake of opening C2 during a conference with two colleagues sitting next to me at the table where I was. Yikes. The one immediately next to me was freaked. I had to explain and told her I'm not opening it to read the recap again until I get back to my room. ;-)

Jeanne
 

Yikes !
 

Just to set the record straight, I only read the recap...

Mayrin just doesn't do it for me.

Okay, I'm lying like a rug! She is amazingly pretty. Like my wife, she has that gorgeous black hair and dusky skin that I find really, really attractive.

Truth be told, though, out of all the actresses on this show, I really like the one that plays Yvonne. She's 10 pounds of woman in a 5 pound sack! Feisty too.
 

Oldman54, that would be 10 points from the Russian judge for your description of Ivonne.
 

''10 pounds of woman in a 5 pound sack''---That must be a Navy expression because Hub always describes are very busy older daughter as trying to put ''10 pounds of **** in a 5 pound bag.''
 

Hee...glad folks took this lightly. Well, except for schoolmarm's buddies, but I guess that's to be expected, so sorry for any compromising position there.

I figured that since a picture is worth a thousand words I saved myself a great deal of time on the recap by sticking them in there instead. :)

Anyway...yes, I love Anga, and I love the way Nid is with him. They seem to show her reacting to him with a much greater respect than anyone else thus far. She was very endearing with him and seemed to me, she wasn't playing as many games with him as we've certainly seen her play with other folks, including her own daughters. I look forward to where this goes.
 

Does it make me a horrible person that throughout this whole episode I said to myself, "I hope something bad happens to Paula"?

I just can't stand her.
