Pasion March 14 - sorry but this is a quickie
Friday's Pasion, in a nutshell (I'm sorry to not give it the full treatment like usual) -
Ricardo finds out that Camila would have to appear in person before the judge, which would likely get her put in jail, so he goes to visit her on the beach, boink her, and then leave, telling Jimena to make sure Camila doesn't do anything stupid before Mario arrives with the boat to take them away.
Paco cries until Ines takes him to visit Vasco. Before they go, Ursula visits Vasco. Vasco tells her it's over, she demands the keys back. She's super pissed. (without the keys, how will Ric get into the palace? Oh - maybe Santiago will help someday). Of course as she is leaving Ines comes with Paco and sees her. Inside Vasco and Paco cry a lot, finally Vasco tells Ines that he's done with Ursula, she screams at him "AND WHY SHOULD I BELIEVE YOU?" Great question!
Uriel shaved off his moustache to please Ursula, he still looks kind of funny. Also, he visited Santiago to ask about selling the lanterns in his store, Santiago says no way, you were one who came and stole Camila away that night, go to hell. Uriel actually has the balls to say "yeah but time passes." Not for Santiago.
Nothing from Rita this episode, which was nice. Except that nobody had the opportunity to slap her.
Alberto seems to have forgotten that Jorge is the boss, not him, Jorge holds a knife to his shoulder to remind him who's who around these parts. Alberto seems to be losing it a bit, he's getting out of control. He has taken on Lis's psychotic need for revenge against Camila/Ricardo.
There was a mention at the beach that Claudio is safe in New Orleans. Also, while Ric and Camila are doing the nasty, Jimena sits in her room eating alone and mooning over Mario.
The pressure gradually increases on Santiago to take his place as Jorge's son, to help the families.
Ascanio and Manuela manage to have another conversation about nothing while desperately wanting to jump each other.
Lis decides, even though it's waaaay too late, that she doesn't want to marry Alberto after all.
LaFont has had a bunch of soldiers brought to town 'to protect against a pirate attack.'
Ending of the show - at another court date, Ric and his cronies show up with all their money, maybe it's the beginning of a payment plan. Alberto confronts him and says he knows he is El Antillano, Ric replies with "I know you rob the caravans and sell the Crown's gold to Foreman!" Alberto looks like he crapped his pants. That was a bit more than he was ready for I think.

Back to the hilarious recap: you hit all the right highlights with an impressive degree of snark! I loved it. The episode had a nice balance of sex, insults, threats of piling anvils and with a Rita free night it seemed nearly perfect.
I also now after each love scene go to YouTube to get the "full coverage". And actually this time I wonder why they cut anything at all. By the way, why they "do it" under the blanket - it's Mexico, centuries ago, did they have air conditioning back then?
LaFont got good slapping twice this time - from Jorge, who finally showed him Who Is The Boss around here and later with Ric. I LOVED that look on Ric's face when he revealed his truth to Buffy. Actually, I just probably love Ric. What I'm going to do without him in a few weeks???!!!
We all overdue for Jime and MMM love scene, looks like it should be coming soon.

Really nothing naughty, too bad Univision feels it needed to edit. After all, the program is called Pasion.
It was great when Jorhey gave LaBuffy an attitude adjustment with the big knife. Also, liked the dissing when Uriel comes in and Jorhey says he wants to talk to Uriel 'alone' and 'see you later' to LaBuffy.
Loved the gold skull head ring MMM Mario gave Jimena. I'd like one...

Liz and Lafont make the perfect couple, they have so many things in common. Now that I am thinking, GRita should also marry Jorge. They could all meet every afternoon to drink a tea and make plans to kill, corrupt and steal from people.
Anyway, we're all slapping her in our minds. :)
And quickies, too.
Thanks much, Ferro, as I missed Friday's episode entirely. Grrrrr. At least I can go into Monday's ep well informed.
And yes, I am off to see the YouTube Boinking, as I got no boinking at all. Hmph.
let your wife watch boinking without you present - you will appreciate it later. I know, my hubby did!
Ferro I'm the one who someone suggested to get DVR. I will be getting it....next month when I move. Until then, I'll have to channel flip for 30 minutes cuz my vcr died.
RE: the "chopping" of the love scenes: remember that while these shows are filmed in Mexico & other latin countries, we live in the U.S. and, of course, the wonderful censors have to step in & "chop" scenes that they feel little kiddies might see since Pasion is aired in primetime. If they didn't, someone would pitch a fit. The only thing Univision can do in order to show the "unchopped" scenes would be to show Pasion after 10:00. Hey at least there is You Tube thank heavens.
Well, it looks like by the preview for tonights show that Cami doesn't stay put (can I have a big DUH!!!!).
Brought back good memories and I started shopping for the DVD. Did anybody bought the latest DVD set of LFMB? If yes - how is it? It's sells everywhere for around $20 with 4 disks. Does this set have Spanish subtitles ( vs. English only)?

An underwater archeology team from Indiana University is in charge of studying this shipwreck and it is being protected from looters. Although it will take up to two years to authenticate, all signs point to its being the real thing. This discovery is expected to provide much information about pirates and piracy, including whether Capt. Kidd was a pirate or a privateer. i thought the timeframe and location fit in nicely with the Pasión activity.
Think of it as going to Disneyworld without a camera, and bringing home a small pack of postcards. Looking at the postcards will remind you of your trip to Disney, but you'll wish you had taken your own pictures instead.
I watched the disks on my old TV, which doesn't have regular captions. The English captions are nice, but I don't know if there are Spanish captions. I didn't see a menu option for them, but maybe they play like regular TV captions (which I don't have on that TV).
It's weird because the card that gives you the chapter list is all in Spanish. You'd think we would have either gotten a chapter list in English or the option to have Spanish captions.
Even the extended fingers of his hand as Ricardo reached backward across his body to caress Camilla's face. and then the wrap up whip wrapping Cami across his body?! MARVELOUS.
My standing applause to the director! Sex imitating art. Loved it.
Thank you for review of the LFMB dvd set. I probably will go for it because I really liked the show and I started to watch it in September ( 2006 ) missing the first few months. At least it will be my "postcard" as a reminder of my entering into telenovela world.

I thought Uriel was kind of handsome without his moustache. Now if only he would get rid of that scraggly horizontal beard...
Jestena, thanks for the heads up on the Quedah Merchant. It sounds fascinating and will be a fun thing to follow.
I don't need to have the entire series; on the other hand, if there's a scene I know I'll want to see again, I'll keep it on my own disk so that I don't have to worry about whether it's on the DVD or not. Because the kinds of scenes I like are usually silly stuff that would never make it to the DVD.
Like you can bet that when the Pasion DVDs come out, there won't be a montage of Rita-slapping scenes. Or the time on Destilando when Frankie the Grifter whined, "don't cuss at my hankies, they're made from the finest Italian silk and they're very expensive etc etc." Those are the kinds of moments I'd like to preserve. :)
Uriel paid more attention to Tita in five seconds than Ursula normally does in a week, so assuming that it's sincere, who knows - Uriel's probably a better match than Ursula deserves.
I don't know my rumba from my tango, but it had rhythm, was well choreographed and enjoyable scene--worthy of a replay...

I would love to see a little boinking with MMM and Jimena, but I just don't think Ascanio and Mannie could pull it off. He could, but she is just too angelic a character to imagine her having a rough and tumble in the rack.
