Guapos: Monday 3/24/2008- "The Great Galán Debate"
Al and Hugo return home from their forray to the hospital and come across Connie and Andrea talking in the foyer. Al is very angry and accuses Andrea of lying about being pregnant and faking her miscarriage. Andrea insists that she can explain and Hugo makes an exit before he gets dragged in even further. Al lights into his father and asks him if he’s got anything to say. Connie asks what it is exactly that Al wants him to say. Al is upset that his father is in cahoots with this liar. Connie pretty much says that all women lie. Al insists that isn’t true, his mommy wouldn’t lie. Connie jumps on that and says why don’t you ask her about how she lied when before you were born, when she was pregnant with you. Meanwhile, Andrea is hanging in the background as the two men argue, probably hoping that Al will be distracted enough by his father to forget all about her evil deeds---fat chance! Al insists that his father tell him all about the lies his mother told. Connie says nope and walks away. Al turns back to Andrea and demands to what type of person she is. How could she fake a pregnancy and then a miscarriage. She claims it is because she loves him. He’s not falling for it. He rants on about how she even made him think that Mili was at fault and she had absolutely nothing to do with it. Now he knows he’s got to go beg Mili for forgiveness. Andrea pleads with him, he’s got to understand.
Luci’s in bed, crying her eyes out to Damien. She tells her brother that she’d be lost without her children, they are her only source of strength. She’s a fickle woman, having forgotten about her old friend the bottle…..
It is a blue uniform day and the downstairs group is breakfasting and wondering where oh where Karla could be.
She’s at the airport, getting a harsh lesson in the need of a passport in order to travel to the US. The airline clerk suggests she find a destination within Mexico. She decides for Cancun.
Back at the mansion, Damien has discovered her note and that she took the loot. He starts asking the servants where Karla might be. Lina tells him they don’t know. Connie approaches Damien whilst he’s searching for Karla. He wants info on the ransom money for Snotty Spice. Damien says he’ll get it and that he would even make the payment drop. Connie agrees (why oh why does Connie continue to trust Damien with this kind of stuff?).
Hugo and Mili wander the gardens and Hugo confesses his love, once again. He asks Mili to agree to become his wife. She hesitates in answering. He says he knows that he feels more for her than she does for him, but he’s OK with it because he knows in time she’ll learn to love him more. Meanwhile, he’ll care enough for the both of them. I have to interject and say it just feels creepy to me. Mili tells Hugo that she cares for him, but……He says just as a friend, you’re still thinking of my primo. Mili doesn’t like to be reminded of Al, so she says that she needs time to think about it, to mull over the idea. Hugo says he’ll give her a day.
Damien scours the airport and finds Karla reading. She tries to talk her way out of taking the money. While they are engaged in conversation, another man sits down on the other side of Karla and gets up after a few seconds, with her carryon in his hands. Damien demands to know where the money is and Karla says right here in my bag---They realize the bag has been taken!!! Karla freaks out and Damien subdues her, he doesn’t want to draw any attention.
Connie heads upstairs and finds Luci in bed with her bottle. He’s upset that the first thing his daughter might see when released from the kidnappers is her mother drunk. Luci wants to call the police, but in the middle of this conversation, Snotty returns home, no worse for the wear. A group hug is given. Connie tries to get some details about the kidnappers, but Val swears they had her blindfolded and she saw nothing.
Mili tells Regina about Hugo’s proposal. Regina tells Mili to be careful and reminds her that she’s really in love with Al. She warns Mili that she could end up hurting Hugo badly. Mili swears that Al is in the past and that she’s leaving it behind her.
Snotty assures Slushy that nothing happened while she was kidnapped (makes me think something a la the “Ransom of Red Chief” by O. Henry. Perhaps Snotty was so bad, the kidnappers were willing to pay to get rid of her---or at least it seems like they let her go without getting the ransom). Snotty asks Slushy to promise not to drink. Al comes downstairs and finds his mother and sister in the middle of another hug-fest. He gets hugs from Snotty and she starts to tell him what happened when Connie stops her. He pulls Snotty aside and tells her it is best forgotten and not mentioned to anyone else. While this little side conversation is taking place, Al pulls his mom aside and tells her they need to talk. Luci and Al leave. After they’ve gone, the doorbell rings and enter Pilar. One of Val’s friends, who just returned to Mexico after living in Spain for three years.
Al fills Luci in on the whole Andrea fake pregnancy thing. He then mentions Connie telling him all women are deceitful and that Luci lied. He wants to know what happened when Luci was preggers. She weaves a story about how a similar thing happened back in the day, she lied to Connie and told him she was expecting. He found out she wasn’t telling the truth and he left her in Paris and went back to Mexico. After he’d gone, she found out she really was pregnant and they ended up getting married before Al was born. Al remembers parts of this story from a conversation he had with Regina. He wants to know why she lied in the first place and Luci says she was afraid that he would abandon her. Luci then says that Andrea must have had the same motive, poor baby, she was afraid of losing you. Al seems disgusted with his mother siding with Andrea. He says, well she lost me anyway and leaves the room.
In the dorm room, Mili is filling Gloria and Lina in on Hugo’s proposal. Lina is on team Hugo. Gloria, on the other hand, opts for following the heart, so she’s on team Al. Lina actually makes a stronger case, but I think that’s because she doesn’t stop talking so Gloria didn’t have a chance for rebuttal. Lina says that Mili shouldn’t suffer for someone who’s not worth it in the first place.
Pilar and Val catch up. We find out that Pilar’s parents are divorced. She was living with her mom and step-dad in Barcelona, but now she’s returned to Mexico to be with her father. We also find out that Pilar still has the hots for Al (we knew that from the previews for today’s episode, but Val obviously didn’t watch them, so Pilar needed to fill her in).
Damien returns home and finds out that Val’s been released. He whines to Connie that a phone call would have been nice. Connie says that he’ll never forgive Damien for taking advantage of the situation, and manipulating the return of his stock shares (ya’ think a little bit of the pot calling the kettle black ?). Oh well, Connie decides the one thing has nothing to do with the other and the two men share a toast to Snotty’s return.
Bobby thinks he’s a genius because he figured out that Andrea was lying about expecting a baby. Al anguishes over the possibility of Mili forgiving him for not believing her. Al decides that he’ll need his abuela’s help in convincing Mili to forgive him. Pilar and Val interrupt this conversation. Al is surprised to see Pilar back. Val manages to get Bobby to leave, giving Pilar a chance to make a move on Al.
Down in the kitchen, Andrea confronts Mili, and she caresses the knife block during this conversation---scary!! Mili gives attitude right back at the Skank. She says that one day Al will know the truth about what a liar Andrea is. The Skank says he already knows, but she’s not going to sit around with her arms crossed. She intends to win Al back. Mili is excited to find out that Al knows the truth. She rushes out of the kitchen to go find him, she’s sure he’ll apologize.
Pilar tells Al that he doesn’t know how much she missed him. Al is surprised. Pilar says a girl never forgets her first time. She goes in for a kiss. Mili’s got bad timing, because this is the point where she enters the room. She sees the kiss and leaves before she can see Al push Pilar away. He tells her that he doesn’t feel it, in fact he’s hopelessly in love with another girl. Pilar says what a pity.
Mili runs to Hugo’s room, crying. She tells him that she came to say yes to his proposal (stupid girl!!). He’s just crazy enough to not be bothered by her crying. She’s made him the happiest man in the universe. After that little jump for joy the other part of his brain kicks in and he notices that Mili isn’t exactly ecstatic about the whole thing. She tells him to give her some time. He starts making plans. They’ll have a dinner the next night and tell everyone in the family. Mili says she’d like to tell Regina first. Hugo says she’ll have to quit her job, Mili doesn’t like this idea. Hugo goes in for a kiss, but Mili turns and it is a very chaste kiss.
Bobby and Val walk outside. He’s happy that she wanted to talk to him. She lets him know that she pulled him away from Al so Pilar and Al could be alone. Bobby is crushed. Morky sees Snotty’s returned and he runs up to her and proclaims he’s glad she’s alive. He grabs her and gives her a kiss. Bobby ends up splitting the two of them up, and Val looks sorta confused about what just happened. Val takes off and Bobby and Morky argue over who’s the best suited for Snotty.
Connie questions Karla about Damien. Did she give him info that helped Damien get his shares of the business back from Connie. Karla swears she hasn’t talked to Damien in days. Oh well, Connie says, surely she knows that he’s no longer going to be giving her any money.
Mili fills Gloria and Lina in on finding Al kissing another girl. Typical outraged reactions from Team Hugo and Team Alejandro really has no response---just shock. Karla comes into the room crying because her gravy train is gone.
Al fills Regina in on Andrea’s treachery. Regina is upset. Al says that he’s worried that Mili won’t forgive him, so he needs Regina’s help. Braulio interrupts them and mentions that Hugo and Mili are together. Al gets jealous at the news.
Damien meets up with the man from the airport. He gets the bag of money back. He’s happy because he’s got the money, his company shares, and a large check from Connie.
Regina has Brau pack Andrea’s bags and in front of the whole family, she kicks the Skank to the curb. Andrea begs her madrina to listen. Regina tells her to never call her madrina again. Val and Luci light into Andrea as well. The Skank turns to Connie for some help and he tells her she’s fired. Al, showing some spine, tells his mother and sister that they are hypocrites---they were all for Andrea before and so quick to blame Mili.
Mili hangs out with Hugo in his room, painting. He starts making moves and Mili is obviously uncomfortable, but crazy Hugo doesn’t pick up or refuses to pick up on her non-verbal clues. Mili leaves, but first has to promise Hugo that she’ll talk to Regina first thing.
Lina and Gloria fill the downstairs group in on all the latest happenings---Hugo and Mili’s engagement. They all get a little slap happy and start doing imitations of the upstairs group. Socorrito does a drunken Luci, Gloria does a terrific Snotty (Rocky thinks she’s too harsh), Horacio nails Damien’s stammering, Lina attempts to do Regina, and Rocky does a pretty good job with Connie’s voice. Karla walks in on the silliness, and ever the buzz kill, tells them they are all loco.
Luci scolds Connie for putting his lover above his son. Connie says, son? Same old crap, no new information.
Braulio tells Hugo about Andrea’s bags being packed and Regina kicking her out. Hugo’s a little concerned that Andrea might have ratted him out, so he tries to feel Brau out for any info. Brau says that Andrea got fired, and Hugo says she’ll find work. Unable to keep his joy to himself, Hugo blurts out to Braulio that Mili agreed to marry him. Braulio is shocked. END OF EPISODE.

Thanks Cathy, you are one speedy recapper!
Al, you poor misguided fool. From the previews, we can see he's waited a good 36 hours before talking to Mili (he never waited that long before!) and that gave Hugo plenty of lead time. Obviously he knew he needed to sweep in before Al had a chance to apologize, I'm surprised he didn't rush in the night before (like Al should have done!). Having seen the Pilar scene itself, Al was a good boy and broke the kiss and told Pilar he loved another. However, that didn't stop him from returning the kiss in the first place (you saw it - arms around the girl, lasted a little longer than it needed...the flesh indeed is weak with this one...). Regina should have also realized that they needed to move fast since Hugo had proposed and foolish Mili was actually considering it! For once, nobody thought to enlist the remaining musketeers (Lina and Gloria) for help in Al's big apology. These people just couldn't get there act together!! Ok, I'm done ranting.
I'm glad Val is unharmed. She was starting to become nice and after Morgan's kiss, she may well realize she wasn't keeping him around just because he made her laugh...
I finally saw episodes 2-5 (I'd missed the whole first week being out of town and saw the encore of episode one when they aired it a little while ago) on YouTube and noticed that Bobby actually thought Lina was cute when he saw her at the rodeo. He never saw her face (though once he found out that the dancing girl Al liked was Mili he should have put 2 and 2 together). Wonder what the chances are he'll get a clue? Lina has moved on, but I suspect Chamuco is just looking to flirt with the whole staff (and he seemed to flirt with the other girls more than with Lina) so that might not last. Now we just need to find Gloria a boy. Maybe if Hugo stops being a creep and stops oggling Mili. Nah, we better wait for another character.
Speaking of missed episodes, does anyone know of a place other than YouTube to find this stuff? I missed episode 37 (the one with the masquerade ball) and YouTube doesn't seem to have it under the episode number or the Mexico airing date (I think it would have aired Nov 27th last year - it aired here the Tuesday after daylight savings time - the one clock we didn't reset!!!!) Figured I'd check just in case. I was afraid to check the listings without dates or episode #s to avoid spoilers (as it is, I already know things I would have preferred to know when they happened).
Our 18-year-old heroine is way too impulsive for her own good. Hopefully she will hold on to that momentum to break things off with Hugo, but I can see her staying engaged on the grounds that she's a woman of her word. Now, will Hugo rush the wedding like Andrea and Sergio have done before him? The show synopsis mentions a kidnapping at the attempted wedding. Don't know if it's one from this engagement, or one that results after yet another Mili-Al breakup. As it stands right now, I know that this will air in Mexico until sometime in April (don't know the exact date and I wouldn't be surprised if they extend it some more due to ratings). Since it started in early October there, and in mid-January here, we can count on more Guapos until at least mid July!

Cathy: Thank you for a great recap.
And, Hugo, the unemployed, asks Mili to marry him, and he promises he will take care of her forever. She can turn in her maid's uniform for good.
So what are they going to live on? Has this guy ever had a job? We know Damien, the devil, isn't in a position to help him. What is going on here?
I still don't think the stories Mommy, Daddy and Granny are telling about Al's birth are the same. Is Mommy Dearest still claiming that Constancio is Alex's father? Granny tells another version. And Constancio is angry to the core. It is such an anger that it eats him up.
What's going on here?

Hugo can have an exhibit of his one painting and hope to sell it for a huge sum.
Bummer on that Al/Pilar kissing scene. You knew it was going to be another unlocked-door surprise/misunderstanding.
I usually don't like the staff antics, but this time their impressions of the rich family were priceless.

Hey Cathy, loved your team Alejandro, team Hugo routine. And doncha just love how the writers jerk us around...true love can't run smooth 'cause Mili darts in the room just at the moment of the kiss...and yes Margarita...he did take his time enjoying the kiss before pushing her away. Old time's sake and all, I guess.
Gloria's imitation of Snotty Spice was dead on...she did a super job. And I get a kick out of the Rocky/Bobby feuds...you can't tutearme me! and Rocky goes right on doing it. Yea for the kiss! Val did look thoughtful...maybe that romance will run smoother than Alejandro/Mili.

Thank you Cathy!!!
Am I right in thinking Vale got released because there never was going to be a cash hand-off and the kidnappers didn’t know that the money had been swiped? I am just loving the Damien actor’s performance – amoral, sleazy, but also weak and often scared.
How about that scene of him sitting in a coffee shop and checking the bag to make sure it has the bills? He holds up these big stacks – not too smart a thing to do in public!
I was bummed that Andrea might have blown it so badly she wouldn’t show up in the novela again. I think the actress is terrific – not only can she play evil, but she was very convincing being caught out and tearful. But I see that she will be back!
That kiss with Al and the past girlfriend was the first convincing kiss I’ve seen on this show so far. I mean, those kisses in the opening credits! Wimpy! Maybe they want to show everyone in nice profile, but those pecky smooches are anything but smoldering.
What is it with our beautiful young protagonists that when a love seems to be failing, they decide they might as well get married to somebody - anybody who’s asking? Al did that before with Andrea and now Mili with Hugo. Hugo’s pressure was definitely creepy. One day for an answer! Sheesh.

I was bummed that Andrea might have blown it so badly she wouldn’t show up in the novela again. I think the actress is terrific – not only can she play evil, but she was very convincing being caught out and tearful. But I see that she will be back!
That kiss with Al and the past girlfriend was the first convincing kiss I’ve seen on this show so far. I mean, those kisses in the opening credits! Wimpy! Maybe they want to show everyone in nice profile, but those pecky smooches are anything but smoldering.
What is it with our beautiful young protagonists that when a love seems to be failing, they decide they might as well get married to somebody - anybody who’s asking? Al did that before with Andrea and now Mili with Hugo. Hugo’s pressure was definitely creepy. One day for an answer! Sheesh.
Maggie, I also thought that there was never going to be a real cash handoff.
Damien just got another confederate to steal the bag from Karla. This way, Karla doesn't know that he has the money back. I was wondering for a moment whether the confederate was going to run off with the money too and return a bag full of paper.

Val looked positively weak-kneed after that smooch. We certainly whipped right through that kidnapping drama, and she was surprisingly circumspect about the whole thing. Unlike her brother, she's showing a bit of character development.
Mili, however. A few signs you shouldn't marry someone:
1. You accept his proposal while still literally crying over another guy.
2. Minutes after proposing, you are moaning that you want to die.
3. You can't stand to kiss him.
4. He's a weirdo freak with no visible means of support or apparent interest in changing that status.
5. It is obvious to everyone that you don't love him.
What an action-packed episode! Great recap, too!

Thanks for the recap!
I just love this show! I can't figure out who my favorite characters are because I seriously love them all - from the goofy servants who make me laugh out loud to snotty spice, who everyone loves to hate!
And has anyone noticed that every time they show Regina eating, she's eating some sort of jello mold? It cracks me up!

I don't think we have to worry about having seen the last of the skank (unfortunately). She is sure to be around to cause trouble - the previews show her dealing with some tabloid. Kiss that political career goodbye Connie. But I did enjoy Regina having her bags packed and throwing her out of the mansion. That's the first really smart thing any Belmonte has done since we started.
Snotty Spice did look a little floored after that kiss. I too thought Al took a little too long to go to apologize to Mili and during that disgusting kiss. I have a horrible feeling that we have not seen the last of women making plays for him and Mili catching them. With any luck she'll give him a run for his money but please God not with Nutty Hugo. He really is creeping me out more every day.
The servants doing their impressions of the masters was absolutely hysterical especially Gloria with the dead on hit of Snotty Spice.
I do have to admit that was the lamest kidnapping ever and the "luck" of Damian finding Karla and her sack of ill gotten dinero. Oh Puleez. Poor Karla and her greedy ways, now Connie is not going to pay her money to keep an eye on evil Damian. She'll just have to earn money by working for it. I still fail to see why she has fixated on Damian when she knows what a loser he is.

Hey guys =)
Decie girl, I think Karla's still with Damien because he's the only guy with any semblance of cash who seems to want anything to do with her. She tried with Hugo, but he made it clear he was only interested in Mili. I supposed it's hard to find any other rich guys when you're couped up at Chez Belmonte.
I have no idea what Hugo plans to support Mili with. Sometimes rich folks leave their kids trust funds that they can't get to until they reach a certain age. Maybe Hugo's mom left him one of those and he just has to wait a little while to get to it. Heck, he might already have it and just isn't as willing to part with cash to his useless dad as the rest of the family. Let's not forget that he hated his guts.
I do hope to see Mili's "practice dinner" with all the servants playing the big bosses. I bet it will be hysterical ;)
