Fuego, Monday 7/7 (#50): Fr. Tadeo plays with fire
Alternative titles:
My Three Dads
Fuego en la Panadería
Did someone order a cheesecake?
Short version:
Crabi sloshes a few gallons of gasoline around the front of the bakery, muttering "they'll pay," while Sofía fondles tomorrow's bread and waits for Juan who was supposed to fetch just that one heart-shaped pan and come right back.
Juan, Pablo, the padre, and Quintina are tormenting Oscar with the good news that he's been accepted into the seminary and is to show up first thing tomorrow morning. Oscar is not swift enough to pick up on the joke, and his dimples are nowhere to be found.
Nutty Crabi repeats that Juan and Sofía will pay, and they don't deserve to live, because they filled her with rage and shame. She throws her good lighter (which hopefully has an inscription on it, maybe something like "this lighter is the property of Gabriela Elizondo, and Juan and Sofía will pay") at the puddle of gasoline and watches it go up in flames. The gas burns obligingly.
Inside the bakery, Sofía pulls the blanket around herself with a little smile. (Perhaps it smells like Brut cologne.)
The guys and Quintina are still teasing Oscar about the priesthood. Just when I'm afraid there's no end in sight, Oscar finally blurts that he's not going to become a priest. Phew! No - the joke's still not done. Juan and the padre pretend to be totally shocked and confused by Oscar's denial. Flustered, he vehemently affirms that he never intended to be a priest. "I did it for love." Juan scolds him for joking about matters of the Lord. (Franco smirks and/or chews in the background.)
Gabi is enjoying her handiwork waaaaay too much. From the look on her face, this is even better than that time when she stroked her shoulders. "The fire waits for those who have sinned," she howls, half-crying, half-ecstatic. "It burns all of the damned! Nobody humiliates Gabriela Elizondo! Nobody!" She then turns her face skyward and begins a prayer that could be a Hail Mary, or some other standard Mary prayer, or possibly a prayer that all inside are burned to a crisp - sorry, I'm not sure - there are no captions for this part and her words are lost in the loud music and crinkly fire sound effects. She takes her gas can and drives off as the flames climb up the front of the bakery.
Now it's Tadeo's turn to scold Oscar. "I feel very deceived." Oscar admits he was an oaf, but he was desperate because he's in love with Jimena.
There's more redundant discussion of this, and then Oscar gets on his knees and begs the padre's forgiveness. Finally the padre admits he knew Oscar's "calling" wasn't for real, and he just went along with it to see how far Oscar would take it. "I'm going to give you a good punishment so you'll learn." (Oooh! Ooooh! I hope it's a spanking!) Oscar apologizes again to the padre and to Juan and Franco. The brothers snub him; Oscar takes on a wheedling tone; Franco and Juan laugh loudly in his ears. All is forgiven.
(Please, let us never speak of this again. Even The Jamie Kennedy Experiment didn't last this long.)
People on the street are taking notice of the big fire, even though there's amazingly still very little external damage. They're screaming and calling for water.
Inside, Sofía casually turns toward the window and seems really shocked to see the fire, even though it looks as though she's been sweating for a while and her eye makeup is smeary. Cut to people outside running up with puny buckets of water, and the bakery is filling with smoke and flames (must have jumped through the keyhole or mail slot) and Sofía is starting to panic for her baby.
The guys (+ Quintina) are sitting casually around the kitchen table. Juan sniffs the air and asks Q if she left anything in the kitchen. He smells something burning... finally he remembers that he's the one who left something... "Sofía! The bakery!!"
They all run to the front, where they can see the fire through the glass door; Juan is ready to bust through it when a big flaming stick magically falls from the other side, making that door unusable (like if he breaks the glass the big flaming stick will be in his face). They run out to the street, where the bucket brigade is in full force (the front of the building still barely scorched). Sofía is cornered by the flames inside, crying for Juan.
Juan breaks the glass door in the storefront and makes a beeline for the back room. Unfortunately there are some flames in the way, which he doesn't seem to notice. Franco and the padre pull him back. Sofía cries helplessly, though it looks as though she may have taken a moment to reapply her makeup - good thinking.
Gabriela drives down the Mundo de Fieras Memorial Deserted Highway and stops at Ye Olde Evidence Dump. It's an abandoned lot with the remains of a razed building, or maybe just random unsalvageable construction refuse and/or miscellaneous large trash items. With her bare, fingerprinty hands, she hurls the gas can as far as her little arms will throw it. Comically, it bounces off of something and lands just a few feet away from her.
She sags against the doorway of her car; could her sanity finally be catching up with her? Or are her 18-hour support hose beginning to fail?
Juan lets some people douse him with water. He runs into the baking room, where Sofía (not coughing yet) is passing out. We catch a glimpse of one of Juan's S-in-a-heart cakes. He stumbles through the smoke, flames, and bakers' racks, and finds Sofía on the floor, very happy to see him. "Save us, save our child! I can't lose him, save us!" He picks her up. Yay! The day is saved.
Or is it? Several loud explosions shoot flames through the now glassless windows. Oscar and Franco scream in horror, knowing that their brother and his lady are surely dead!
Oscar and Franco run towards the building. Tadeo hauls Oscar back; Hortensia's sons restrain Franco. Good thing, too, because Juan is perfectly okay - he's just trying to find a way out of the inferno. But the brothers break free of their protectors; now Hortensia's sons have to hold the padre back.
Juan comes out with Sofía in his arms; they do a quick status check and Juan thanks God they're alive. The other guys continue fighting the fire, but seems to be a lost cause at this point, even though the paint job still looks pretty good.
At the comisaria, Mapache's cellmate Nabor (the guy who was accused of running Bernardo over) is freaking out and calling for help. Looks like Mapache's been dead for a while, because the foam's all gone now. Finally the guards show up, and Nabor tells them about the poisoned sandwiches and shows them the bag and wrappers; the guards wonder who brought them, since the only person who came in was Father Tadeo.
At the hacienda, Raquel and Feo are still drinking and flirting. He is really laying it on thick, and she's loving it. "Oooh, you're terrible, Fernando!" Yuck. "With so much gallantry, anyone would fall into your arms." Blech! She asks where Gabi went - "I got the impression when she left that she was kind of mad." He vaguely tells her that something suddenly came up with the hacienda, but she won't be long.
Raquel says she drank too much and had better go, but she stands up too fast and nearly falls over. Feo tells her to stay, chat some more about her travels, and have a little more cognac. (The perfect remedy for when you get the spins? Or maybe he's run out of Super-Sleepytime Tea!) She happily consents to this and starts yapping about Venice - which, she giggles, is ideal for lovers. Feo drinks to that, and the invisible snake rattles its tail as Raquel's eyes flash coquettishly over the rim of her brandy glass.
The guards at the comisaria are telling the comisario that Mapache was dead when they showed up, and Nabor said someone left poisoned sandwiches, but Tadeo was the only person who came in. "He came in twice." The comisario asks Nabor what he discussed with Tadeo; Nabor says Tadeo asked if he wanted to confess, and he said no. The comisario says Mapache had said he could give them a clue about something.
Nabor has a lovely flashback of Mateo foaming at the mouth and saying "Fernando Escandón." Nabor looks at the comisario, looks at the floor, and says "no, he didn't tell me anything. Nothing, nope." I don't think the comisario believes him, but I guess Nabor doesn't want to put himself in a situation where he can never eat a sandwich again.
The fire at the bakery is finally out, but there's smoke everywhere. Clutching a small framed picture or book with the Virgencita on it, Franco tells Juan there's nothing left. Oscar says "we lost everything." Juan says it doesn't matter, because they're all okay, and they'll fight to go on and bring back their bakery. (Darn, I was hoping they'd open another nightclub.) The brothers agree. Tadeo shows up and says as long as they keep that faith and brotherhood, nothing will hold them back.
Juan says he should take Sofía to the house. "Oh my goodness," Quintina moans in the background, and asks Rigo to get the doctor. They are all coughing. Hortensia tells Hilario that she and Q will go back in and see if they can recover any more stuff; he warns them that the things inside are still going to be hot.
Gabriela returns to the hacienda, holding a handkerchief to her nose - almost as if she were crying. (Probably over the loss of her lighter.) Whatever emotion she was having dissolves as she sees Raquel and Feo standing very close and laughing. Raquel, at least, seems happy to see her and asks where she went. Gabi composes herself and apologizes for leaving to take care of a "contratiempo" (setback). Raq says don't worry - she's had a great time with Gabi's son-in-law. "Fernando is every woman's dream!"
Gabi (still with the hankie around the nose): "I know, though not everyone shares your opinion. There are some women who have rejected him." Feo sulks. Raquel excuses herself to leave, and nearly trips into Feo's arms. Gabi eagerly offers to escort Raq to her truck. (She's apparently a big fan of drunk driving.) Feo thinks maybe Raq shouldn't drive. He calls for Rosendo to take her home, and they'll return her truck later.
As Feo and Gabi walk Raq to the front door, Raq asks Feo why Rosendo's taking her home - why not Feo? Gabi looks sour. She gets even sourer when Eva shows up: "What were you doing out so late?" Eva says she was helping Grandpa with his cottage. Gabi says her house is not a hotel where Eva can come and go as she wishes. "And don't think I've forgotten how you confronted me this afternoon. But we'll talk tomorrow."
Drunk as she is, Raquel notices and comments on Gabi's mistreatment of Eva, and offers the woman a job! Then Raquel adds, "Oh, I haven't had the chance to tell you about Ruth! She's my daughter! My only daughter!"
(Doesn't this happen every time you have company or go somewhere? The best conversation doesn't kick in until right around doorknob-time.)
Gee. I wonder how old Ruth is. Like if she just happens to be roughly the same age as Rosario.
The super-ultra-mega-impactada look on Gabriela's face tells me I might be onto something. Eva notices it, too, though I'm not sure if she's thinking what I'm thinking.
Rosario and the Fly Girls are dancing at the Bad Love Bar, just in case that creepy look from Gabriela and Eva's reaction to it were too subtle. Rosario spies Armando meeting with his goons.
Sofía is in Libia's old room, coughing for the doctor. (I guess only the bakery burned; I had thought the house would go with it, or at least be made uninhabitable by smoke, since aren't they adjoined? No? Maybe there's some space between the house and the bakery?) The doctor says Sofi's stronger than they thought, and Juan needn't worry so much. He wants to look at some burns on Juan's arms, but Juan refuses, saying he can do that later but wants to worry about Sofía now. (She's coughing quite a bit.) She assures him that she and the baby are okay.
Franco is telling Rigo and Hilario that the oven wasn't lit, so someone started the fire. Oscar agrees that someone wants to hurt them, and the fire was set. Quintina reminds them of the cut brakes on Hortensia's truck; Hortensia reminds them of the plot to frame the brothers for Petra's murder. Hortensia's boys also find it very odd. Oscar wonders why it's happening.
Tadeo has listened to all of this with an increasingly angry face. Finally he storms out without a word.
Feo and Crabi are having another three-way with Brandy in Crabi's study; she tells him she took his advice and worked off her hate. He closes the heavy wooden doors and asks how she feels. "Good. I showed that no one makes fun of Gabriela Elizondo."
(Maybe I should make sure I check the batteries in my smoke detectors.)
Feo smirks and says "now do you understand why I like you so much? You're a strong woman, decisive. There are few women like you. Very few." He nuzzles her neck. "That's why I need you at my side. Together, we will be invincible!"
But all of his cheek-kissing causes her to overheat, and she pulls away and protests that she's not into love scenes. "You have to learn that when I say no, it's no."
"And YOU have to learn that I am not going to accept your rejection!" he says, grabbing her around the middle and kissing her ear. She tries to wiggle away, but he plants a big one on her mouth, and at last she gives in with frightened peeps of self-loathing.
The doctor checks Sofi's pulse health and says she needs to recuperate. Sofía again tells Juan she's fine. He says he doesn't know what he would have done if he had lost her. He would have died! He still doesn't want the doc to look at his burns, but Sofi insists. "Do it for me." Juan winces as the doctor puts something on his burns.
Gabi is still protesting to Feo in between kisses, saying she's not in the mood. "Why not? Everything went the way you wanted. You carried out your vengeance!" She says sure, for now, but they don't know what will happen tomorrow. She breaks away and tells him to leave her in peace; they'll have time for "us" afterwards.
She flees, but he follows her into the foyer. "Time? When? When will that time be?" He kisses her roughly and she pushes him off again; who knows what might happen next, but for Tadeo's timely arrival (I don't think he saw anything). He point-blank asks which one of them it was.
Oscar and Franco accompany the doctor back to the dispensario to visit Pablito, who is still at his grandmother's side. They apologize for their lateness and say they had a slight problem. Pablito shushes them and says she's asleep; however, he looks nervous when the doctor lifts Grandma's hand to check her pulse. The doctor doesn't say anything, but puts her hand down and listens with the stethoscope.
He doesn't listen very long. Pablito isn't watching and Oscar doesn't catch on right away, but Franco seems to realize that something is wrong. It becomes much more obvious with the doctor pulls the blanket over Grandma's face. Oscar looks at his brother and quickly stands. Pablito gets up too. The doctor kindly touches his chin.
Pablito wails in denial, begging for it not to be true. Oscar tells him Grandma is in heaven, resting with God. Pablito is inconsolable, crying "she's left me all alone." "You're not alone," Franco says, "you have us, we'll always be with you."
He wants his granny. Oscar nearly beats the poor kid up trying to reassure him that they'll take care of him and that they love him very much. "My grandmother loved me very much!" the boy protests. "Why'd you go, Abuelita? Why did you take her, God?"
Man, this kid can cry. I finally get a death scene, and it's SAD!
Crabi and Feo are playing dumb with the padre. He says one of them set fire to the bakery. "Duh, there was a fire at the bakery?" Feo repeats as Gabi dabs her face nervously with the Hankie of Guilt. Tadeo says "Sofía was inside, she and her child could have died." Gabi tells him he has no right to accuse them. He says he's sure one of them did it, despite their denials.
"We don't have to take your insults," Feo hisses. Tadeo says the truth insults no one. Gabi says she had thought he was a friend of the house, but now she sees he's not, and instead of bringing peace and love (as if it's something you can transport in a box!) he's only brought them hate and hostility. He's the real reason her family is destroyed.
Tadeo says she doesn't see her faults, and if anyone destroyed her family it's her, and her cruelty and selfishness.
Hysterical, she kicks him out and tells him never to come back. (Notice how Feo always lets her do all the talking?) Tadeo finally leaves, frustrated. Feo beams at his sweetie.
Juan shows up with his arms all bandaged up and gives Sofía some tea, which is probably not spiked with anything except love and possibly some ambient schmutz. She asks why he's looking at her that way; he says she doesn't know how frightened he was when he saw her trapped among the flames. More "I woulda died if something happened to you or the baby." She says it's all over now, and she's so grateful to have met him; he's saved her so many times, from sadness, reviving her heart with his caresses and tenderness; she thinks it's his little sister (who she still doesn't know was Libia) who put him in her path. "I wish I could have met her."
Juan? You wanna say something? He's wincing like he wants to say something.
The Uribe guys plus boyfriend are again crowing over how awesome their nightclub looks. Octavio tells them their opening act has already arrived (I don't see her so I guess he hasn't inflated her yet). Boyfriend (poor guy, someday I'll know his name) asks if she's as spectacular as "Gisele." "Much more," Octavio gloats. Her stage name is Maracuya, the Passion Fruit. They toast all of their hard work.
(WOOO! What was that loud noise and flash between scenes? If you have a machine that can play back very slowly, you'll get brief glimpse of Maracuya... if you really can't wait a few more minutes. Teases!)
Pablito is at the Reyes house now, telling Juan about his grandmother. The brothers and Quintina listen, teary-eyed. Juan gives him a bear hug and gives him a pep talk about how Pablito's had to deal with his own problems since he was very small; but his grandmother lived long enough to raise him well. She's happy up there, together with Pablito's parents.
And now Pablito has a new family, Juan says. He'll be like their much smaller brother. Oscar says no - he'll be like their child. Quintina says she'll be his aunt.
Father Tadeo arrives to check on Sofía. (I guess Pablito is chopped liver?) Oscar asks the Padre where he went so abruptly before, without saying anything. Before Tadeo has to answer, the comisario shows up with his not-very-good-guards, wanting to take Tadeo downtown. The brothers do not react well to this turn of events and don't want to let Tadeo go. Comisario says he's not under arrest - they just want to know about his visit last night. "That guy Mapache was poisoned - he's dead."
Maracuya has arrived at the new nightclub. She's wearing a big headset, and she has sunglasses on top of her head (or is that a big black bow), and crazy black hair pointing in all different directions, and an interesting black sorta-dress type of thing. Benito says she's even more spectacular than he imagined. (He must be pretty excited, because his voice sounds high and nervous.) They ooh and ahh over her; they exchange pleasantries; she is very professional and they all tell each other how lucky they feel to be in business together. I think she tells them that the most important thing in show business is to show up.
The run-down old Bad Love Bar looks pretty skanky by comparison. Armando is groping the cigarette girl. El Coyote - I think that's what they call him, the guy who attempts to collect Feo's gambling debts - tells Armando that his boss has seen Rosario's show, and he wants to sponsor a tour. Armando says it's impossible, because she's the main attraction at this place. He very patronizingly pats Coyote's chest, which causes about a dozen men to zoom in with guns pointed at Armando. "My boss doesn't accept a 'no'," he warns, baring his teeth. "And this time will not be an exception." Armando graciously accepts the offer, in that case, but says he'll have to clear it with the bar's owner first. Coyote is amused and says Feonando Escandón is a great friend of theirs, and no doubt he'll enthusiastically agree to let the boss take Rosario on tour.
Feo rubs Crabi's shoulders (I'm not sure if she notices) and tells her to calm down. "I'll always be at your side." (Easier to get the knife in that way, right?) He says no one can prove that she's the one who set fire to the bakery. She's not so sure. He says he'll say they were together all evening, and Raquel will agree, because she drank a lot and won't remember anything. Now (rubbing her back) they need to rest because it was a tough day for both of them. He tells her not to worry, and he'll find a way to resolve any inconvenience. (More with her shoulders.)
Flustered, she thanks him and tries to wish him a good night, as if she doesn't notice his mouth on her neck. Clearly she does notice, though and pulls away - somewhat absently. He gives up and leaves.
"The first inconvenience to resolve is Father Tadeo," she thought-bubbles.
Tadeo tells the comisario he only came by once. The guards admit they were playing cards, and only saw that there was a guy wearing a cassock. Tadeo brilliantly deduces that someone must have put on a cassock so they'd think it was him. This would mean that there are more people involved in Petra's murder, who were afraid he'd turn them in.
Feo resumes his search for the accusatory little notes that Bernardo left behind. He is interrupted by Armando knocking frantically at the door. Armando apologizes for coming to the house, but it's urgent. Feo is ready to pimp-slap him, but Armando stuns him with the news that a "sinister man" (I guess Armando has never met El Coyote before) came by saying that some guy named "the boss" wants to take off with Rosario. Armando said no, but the man threatened him and said Feonando would agree to it. Feonando disguises his displeasure by lighting a cigar.
Armando also reports that Mapache won't be a problem; he's been sent to the other world. Feo approves. However, Armando adds, Mapache had been locked up with Nabor, the drunk who hit Don Bernardo; and they say he spoke with Father Tadeo. They don't know if he told him something.
"Padre Tadeo, Padreo Tadeo," Feo mocks in frustration. "He's looking to be put out of my way forever. Para siempre."
Next time:
Feo acts like a jerk.
Oscar gets a new job.
My Three Dads
Fuego en la Panadería
Did someone order a cheesecake?
Short version:
- Gabi burns down the bakery, but no one is seriously injured. Feo gets Raquel drunk in hopes of using her fuzzy memory as an alibi for Gabi.
- Drunken Raquel offers Eva a job and tells them her daughter Ruth is in town. Gabi reacts. Eva notices.
- Oscar's blasphemous bluff to join the priesthood is neutralized.
- Pablito's granny dies; Pablito goes to live with the Reyes.
- Tadeo is questioned in Mapache's death and realizes there is a conspiracy. Nabor fails to mention Mapache's foamy last words blaming Feonando.
- Gabi and Feo continue their demented dance of seduction.
- The Uribes hire Maracuya to open the nightclub. Meanwhile, the Bad Love Bar is losing Rosario to Feo's bookie.
- Feo and Crabi independently decide to get rid of Tadeo.
Crabi sloshes a few gallons of gasoline around the front of the bakery, muttering "they'll pay," while Sofía fondles tomorrow's bread and waits for Juan who was supposed to fetch just that one heart-shaped pan and come right back.
Juan, Pablo, the padre, and Quintina are tormenting Oscar with the good news that he's been accepted into the seminary and is to show up first thing tomorrow morning. Oscar is not swift enough to pick up on the joke, and his dimples are nowhere to be found.

Hortensia tells Hilario that she and Q will go back in and see if they can recover any more stuff; he warns them that the things inside are still going to be hot.
Gabriela returns to the hacienda, holding a handkerchief to her nose - almost as if she were crying. (Probably over the loss of her lighter.) Whatever emotion she was having dissolves as she sees Raquel and Feo standing very close and laughing. Raquel, at least, seems happy to see her and asks where she went. Gabi composes herself and apologizes for leaving to take care of a "contratiempo" (setback). Raq says don't worry - she's had a great time with Gabi's son-in-law. "Fernando is every woman's dream!"
Gabi (still with the hankie around the nose): "I know, though not everyone shares your opinion. There are some women who have rejected him." Feo sulks. Raquel excuses herself to leave, and nearly trips into Feo's arms. Gabi eagerly offers to escort Raq to her truck. (She's apparently a big fan of drunk driving.) Feo thinks maybe Raq shouldn't drive. He calls for Rosendo to take her home, and they'll return her truck later.
As Feo and Gabi walk Raq to the front door, Raq asks Feo why Rosendo's taking her home - why not Feo? Gabi looks sour. She gets even sourer when Eva shows up: "What were you doing out so late?" Eva says she was helping Grandpa with his cottage. Gabi says her house is not a hotel where Eva can come and go as she wishes. "And don't think I've forgotten how you confronted me this afternoon. But we'll talk tomorrow."
Drunk as she is, Raquel notices and comments on Gabi's mistreatment of Eva, and offers the woman a job! Then Raquel adds, "Oh, I haven't had the chance to tell you about Ruth! She's my daughter! My only daughter!"
(Doesn't this happen every time you have company or go somewhere? The best conversation doesn't kick in until right around doorknob-time.)
Gee. I wonder how old Ruth is. Like if she just happens to be roughly the same age as Rosario.
The super-ultra-mega-impactada look on Gabriela's face tells me I might be onto something. Eva notices it, too, though I'm not sure if she's thinking what I'm thinking.
Rosario and the Fly Girls are dancing at the Bad Love Bar, just in case that creepy look from Gabriela and Eva's reaction to it were too subtle. Rosario spies Armando meeting with his goons.
Sofía is in Libia's old room, coughing for the doctor. (I guess only the bakery burned; I had thought the house would go with it, or at least be made uninhabitable by smoke, since aren't they adjoined? No? Maybe there's some space between the house and the bakery?) The doctor says Sofi's stronger than they thought, and Juan needn't worry so much. He wants to look at some burns on Juan's arms, but Juan refuses, saying he can do that later but wants to worry about Sofía now. (She's coughing quite a bit.) She assures him that she and the baby are okay.
Franco is telling Rigo and Hilario that the oven wasn't lit, so someone started the fire. Oscar agrees that someone wants to hurt them, and the fire was set. Quintina reminds them of the cut brakes on Hortensia's truck; Hortensia reminds them of the plot to frame the brothers for Petra's murder. Hortensia's boys also find it very odd. Oscar wonders why it's happening.
Tadeo has listened to all of this with an increasingly angry face. Finally he storms out without a word.
Feo and Crabi are having another three-way with Brandy in Crabi's study; she tells him she took his advice and worked off her hate. He closes the heavy wooden doors and asks how she feels. "Good. I showed that no one makes fun of Gabriela Elizondo."
(Maybe I should make sure I check the batteries in my smoke detectors.)
Feo smirks and says "now do you understand why I like you so much? You're a strong woman, decisive. There are few women like you. Very few." He nuzzles her neck. "That's why I need you at my side. Together, we will be invincible!"
But all of his cheek-kissing causes her to overheat, and she pulls away and protests that she's not into love scenes. "You have to learn that when I say no, it's no."
"And YOU have to learn that I am not going to accept your rejection!" he says, grabbing her around the middle and kissing her ear. She tries to wiggle away, but he plants a big one on her mouth, and at last she gives in with frightened peeps of self-loathing.
The doctor checks Sofi's pulse health and says she needs to recuperate. Sofía again tells Juan she's fine. He says he doesn't know what he would have done if he had lost her. He would have died! He still doesn't want the doc to look at his burns, but Sofi insists. "Do it for me." Juan winces as the doctor puts something on his burns.
Gabi is still protesting to Feo in between kisses, saying she's not in the mood. "Why not? Everything went the way you wanted. You carried out your vengeance!" She says sure, for now, but they don't know what will happen tomorrow. She breaks away and tells him to leave her in peace; they'll have time for "us" afterwards.
She flees, but he follows her into the foyer. "Time? When? When will that time be?" He kisses her roughly and she pushes him off again; who knows what might happen next, but for Tadeo's timely arrival (I don't think he saw anything). He point-blank asks which one of them it was.
Oscar and Franco accompany the doctor back to the dispensario to visit Pablito, who is still at his grandmother's side. They apologize for their lateness and say they had a slight problem. Pablito shushes them and says she's asleep; however, he looks nervous when the doctor lifts Grandma's hand to check her pulse. The doctor doesn't say anything, but puts her hand down and listens with the stethoscope.
He doesn't listen very long. Pablito isn't watching and Oscar doesn't catch on right away, but Franco seems to realize that something is wrong. It becomes much more obvious with the doctor pulls the blanket over Grandma's face. Oscar looks at his brother and quickly stands. Pablito gets up too. The doctor kindly touches his chin.
Pablito wails in denial, begging for it not to be true. Oscar tells him Grandma is in heaven, resting with God. Pablito is inconsolable, crying "she's left me all alone." "You're not alone," Franco says, "you have us, we'll always be with you."
He wants his granny. Oscar nearly beats the poor kid up trying to reassure him that they'll take care of him and that they love him very much. "My grandmother loved me very much!" the boy protests. "Why'd you go, Abuelita? Why did you take her, God?"
Man, this kid can cry. I finally get a death scene, and it's SAD!
Crabi and Feo are playing dumb with the padre. He says one of them set fire to the bakery. "Duh, there was a fire at the bakery?" Feo repeats as Gabi dabs her face nervously with the Hankie of Guilt. Tadeo says "Sofía was inside, she and her child could have died." Gabi tells him he has no right to accuse them. He says he's sure one of them did it, despite their denials.
"We don't have to take your insults," Feo hisses. Tadeo says the truth insults no one. Gabi says she had thought he was a friend of the house, but now she sees he's not, and instead of bringing peace and love (as if it's something you can transport in a box!) he's only brought them hate and hostility. He's the real reason her family is destroyed.
Tadeo says she doesn't see her faults, and if anyone destroyed her family it's her, and her cruelty and selfishness.
Hysterical, she kicks him out and tells him never to come back. (Notice how Feo always lets her do all the talking?) Tadeo finally leaves, frustrated. Feo beams at his sweetie.
Juan shows up with his arms all bandaged up and gives Sofía some tea, which is probably not spiked with anything except love and possibly some ambient schmutz. She asks why he's looking at her that way; he says she doesn't know how frightened he was when he saw her trapped among the flames. More "I woulda died if something happened to you or the baby." She says it's all over now, and she's so grateful to have met him; he's saved her so many times, from sadness, reviving her heart with his caresses and tenderness; she thinks it's his little sister (who she still doesn't know was Libia) who put him in her path. "I wish I could have met her."
Juan? You wanna say something? He's wincing like he wants to say something.
The Uribe guys plus boyfriend are again crowing over how awesome their nightclub looks. Octavio tells them their opening act has already arrived (I don't see her so I guess he hasn't inflated her yet). Boyfriend (poor guy, someday I'll know his name) asks if she's as spectacular as "Gisele." "Much more," Octavio gloats. Her stage name is Maracuya, the Passion Fruit. They toast all of their hard work.
(WOOO! What was that loud noise and flash between scenes? If you have a machine that can play back very slowly, you'll get brief glimpse of Maracuya... if you really can't wait a few more minutes. Teases!)
Pablito is at the Reyes house now, telling Juan about his grandmother. The brothers and Quintina listen, teary-eyed. Juan gives him a bear hug and gives him a pep talk about how Pablito's had to deal with his own problems since he was very small; but his grandmother lived long enough to raise him well. She's happy up there, together with Pablito's parents.
And now Pablito has a new family, Juan says. He'll be like their much smaller brother. Oscar says no - he'll be like their child. Quintina says she'll be his aunt.
Father Tadeo arrives to check on Sofía. (I guess Pablito is chopped liver?) Oscar asks the Padre where he went so abruptly before, without saying anything. Before Tadeo has to answer, the comisario shows up with his not-very-good-guards, wanting to take Tadeo downtown. The brothers do not react well to this turn of events and don't want to let Tadeo go. Comisario says he's not under arrest - they just want to know about his visit last night. "That guy Mapache was poisoned - he's dead."
Maracuya has arrived at the new nightclub. She's wearing a big headset, and she has sunglasses on top of her head (or is that a big black bow), and crazy black hair pointing in all different directions, and an interesting black sorta-dress type of thing. Benito says she's even more spectacular than he imagined. (He must be pretty excited, because his voice sounds high and nervous.) They ooh and ahh over her; they exchange pleasantries; she is very professional and they all tell each other how lucky they feel to be in business together. I think she tells them that the most important thing in show business is to show up.
The run-down old Bad Love Bar looks pretty skanky by comparison. Armando is groping the cigarette girl. El Coyote - I think that's what they call him, the guy who attempts to collect Feo's gambling debts - tells Armando that his boss has seen Rosario's show, and he wants to sponsor a tour. Armando says it's impossible, because she's the main attraction at this place. He very patronizingly pats Coyote's chest, which causes about a dozen men to zoom in with guns pointed at Armando. "My boss doesn't accept a 'no'," he warns, baring his teeth. "And this time will not be an exception." Armando graciously accepts the offer, in that case, but says he'll have to clear it with the bar's owner first. Coyote is amused and says Feonando Escandón is a great friend of theirs, and no doubt he'll enthusiastically agree to let the boss take Rosario on tour.
Feo rubs Crabi's shoulders (I'm not sure if she notices) and tells her to calm down. "I'll always be at your side." (Easier to get the knife in that way, right?) He says no one can prove that she's the one who set fire to the bakery. She's not so sure. He says he'll say they were together all evening, and Raquel will agree, because she drank a lot and won't remember anything. Now (rubbing her back) they need to rest because it was a tough day for both of them. He tells her not to worry, and he'll find a way to resolve any inconvenience. (More with her shoulders.)
Flustered, she thanks him and tries to wish him a good night, as if she doesn't notice his mouth on her neck. Clearly she does notice, though and pulls away - somewhat absently. He gives up and leaves.
"The first inconvenience to resolve is Father Tadeo," she thought-bubbles.
Tadeo tells the comisario he only came by once. The guards admit they were playing cards, and only saw that there was a guy wearing a cassock. Tadeo brilliantly deduces that someone must have put on a cassock so they'd think it was him. This would mean that there are more people involved in Petra's murder, who were afraid he'd turn them in.
Feo resumes his search for the accusatory little notes that Bernardo left behind. He is interrupted by Armando knocking frantically at the door. Armando apologizes for coming to the house, but it's urgent. Feo is ready to pimp-slap him, but Armando stuns him with the news that a "sinister man" (I guess Armando has never met El Coyote before) came by saying that some guy named "the boss" wants to take off with Rosario. Armando said no, but the man threatened him and said Feonando would agree to it. Feonando disguises his displeasure by lighting a cigar.
Armando also reports that Mapache won't be a problem; he's been sent to the other world. Feo approves. However, Armando adds, Mapache had been locked up with Nabor, the drunk who hit Don Bernardo; and they say he spoke with Father Tadeo. They don't know if he told him something.
"Padre Tadeo, Padreo Tadeo," Feo mocks in frustration. "He's looking to be put out of my way forever. Para siempre."
Next time:
Feo acts like a jerk.
Oscar gets a new job.

This strange telenovela is certainly sparking some great recaps. Loved "ye olde evidence dump", the prisoner refraining from confessing to avoid a "situation where he can never eat a sandwich again", "frightened peeps of self-loathing" and my all-time favorite, the "hankie of guilt".
I'd say you were in rare form tonight, Julie, but your recaps are always funny. Glad I can do something else at 9 pm and just look forward to the roasting the next day.
Muchas gracias.

Very funny recap. I love how Raquel's daughter is named Ruth, and everyone says "rrr-Route." Also, I like your idea that someone will find Gabi's lighter as evidence. Was anyone else creeped out when they showed Panchito's granny? She looked so un-natural.
Thanks for a detailed and very funny recap...Description of Gabi at the fire..dead on.
Say could Gabi have found her career this late in life? Arson? I mean there are the individuals who do Arson for profit, but it says so much more when you get orgasmic pleasure thrown in.
Now this spawn of Juan/Sofie is indeed the product of the combined and seriously altered DNA of the parents. Ma has fallen from a horse, been smacked around at least five times a day, may or maynot have been bitten by a snake and now a fire, and she is only like three days pregnant. I'm thinking gamma rays, hello lil green hulk baby.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I forgot Ruth..I think Feo's ears perked up as Hmmmmmm, possibly a new lamb he can lead to the slaughter. Besides if he hooked up with Ruth, his new Mother-in-law would indeed be easier to nail than Gabi and indeed more fun.

"finally he remembers that he's the one who left something..." LOL Duh,a-ya! Juan is definitely only getting by on his good looks, though Sofia wasn't doing much better in figuring out what that smoke and bright flamy stuff meant. This does not auger well for "hulk-baby" in the smarts department.
S0, in a town the size of Ciudad Serdán (pretty decent sized from the opening credits) they don't have a single fire truck? Not even an old pumper?

Julie - great recap, good snark, too. Love the "Ye Olde Evidence Dump" roflol!
I was impressed that one can set a cigarette lighter and it will stay on, for the purpose of torching bakeries. Shows you how much I know about smoking, and lighters.
I missed the first half (phone call from our son) and came in when Pablo's granny was declared dead. I felt so sad for the little guy.
Ruth ..... hhhmmmm . . . the plot thickens.
Niurka's microphone was rather distracting. At least Rosario's (at the Bad Love Bar) is more invisible. I guess BLB cut costs in decor for a better mike?

Julie Julie Julie....You have outdone yourself this time. So many good lines. You should pursue a career in comedy writing. I loved all the lines that JudyB. quoted and more. The ''hankie of guilt'' brought to mind Smarmy Frankie's grief over his lost handkerchief in Destilando. I am also wondering if an actor gets regular pay when lying in bed dead or comatose or a reduced rate . I wonder about these things. I liked Crabi pointing out to the lusty Raquel that ''some mujers reject'' Ferd. Let's see, we know of at least 3 for certain...Sofia, Rosario, and of course, the puritanical Crabi herself who is not into the crazy jungle monkey love that Ferd seems determined to introduce her to. In his favor, Feo does seem to be able to give a nice massage. To me, this may be the only redeeming feature that this flying monkey of a man possesses....whic, of course, is one more redeeming quality than the horrifically heartless and demented Crabi possesses. By the way, I keep hearing this phrase in novelas : ''I need you by my side [mi lado] ''....which always actually seems to mean : ''I want to jump your bones.'' Si ??? Great recap of an exciting episode which I hope my friend Herb, the firefighter, never, ever sees...Talk about suspending your disbelief, Herbie....smoke inhalation...both Sofia and Juan should be goners. [Did you notice how blackened poor Hortensia's and Quinty's faces were...yet Sofia who was actually trapped in the blazing inferno looked like she had just got a facial and shampoo. ***Mad Buns Bess, weary from the strain of suspending her disbelief in this episode

Great job Julie! Wow, what an exciting episode! I think we need to give Sophia some "how to take care of yourself" lessons. Let's see, how about don't sit around waiting for a man to help you. If you smell smoke---GET OUT!!! Where was Augie in his fireman suit and super soaker? How many of you cried with Pablito when his granny died?--be honest now. I'm sure I wasn't the only one. I've never seen adobe burn like that. It was very spectacular. I felt sorry for the two plants in front of the building. They were gonners for sure.
FELS is a gas, isn't it? "Suspend all logic, ye who enter here" says it all (from earlier posts...sorry, I can't remember who to credit with that fab bon mot but it should be the theme song for this TN!)
There are too many inconsistencies to list but I was wondering about Bad Love Bar II that will soon be opening to rave reviews from the crowds of Ciudad Serdan--does Feo even realize that he'll soon have competition? Is there really a need for 2 hootchie cootchie palaces? No phones, no paved roads, no discernible means of wheeled, motorized transportation for the locals but yes, we have 2 Flashdance-inspired bars for your viewing pleasure??
Pad Tad is going to need divine intervention to save his cojones.
I think I hate Crabi more than Feo. Does TN karma include payback in the form of the same punishment you dole out??
I'm suffering from severe mood swings as we leap from sickening sweet naivete to dispicably devilish dirty deeds...my head is spinning!
Julie: FABULOSO recap! Great snark, terrific summation, & wonderful editorial asides. Thanks!
Mad Maggie :-o

Julie: you are a genius with words; JudyB already mentioned a list that had me LOL at 5:00 AM when I read your recap. I, too, caught the quickie shot of the S cake through the evilly crackling flames (you can be sure someone went to cinematography school to achieve this level of artistry).
The singer at the new nightclub looked a bit wrinkly to me, though it could be that her facial glitter was sagging. Watch out, Rosario!

I predict a showdown between the hoochie mamas in the near future. Who will break a nail first, I wonder!?
Julie: Great recap. Thank you.
I couldn't get the point of the microphone in front of Niurka's (Passion Fruit's) fact. Unless it was to hide it. After all, she wasn't performing. Rosario doesn't wear a mike because she's lip synching.
If anyon's ever started a fire with an accelerant like gasoline (not recommended) or diesel, you pick up the odor on your hands and anywhere it might have splashed you. So - the point is - Gabi would have smelled out loud to anyone around her. Let's see - Raquel was too drunk to notice. Feo is her cheering squad. What about Eva and Padre T? They should have picked up on that. But, no, this is just entertainment. You know, maim, murder, steal, etc.

Sometime this afternoon I'll add an executive summary at the top of this long recap - it's a lot to wade through.
Anyone else wondering if Maracuya = Ruth?
Anyone else wondering if Maracuya = Ruth?
The picture is my salute to the TeleNovela cliche "indigenous peoples". Pablo Montera was in "Entre el amor y el odio", a telenovela with Susan Gonzalous (sp?) and Cesar Evora...Where I first learned to love the ability of Cesar Evora to play a handsome but dumber than dirt galan. Yes, EY fills the same role. Pablo discovers said poor maiden on riverbank and takes her to his tribe who has uber hawt jealous indian maidens in short (think F-troop) outfits. It was so campy.
Oh, and yeah, I think the "nice" expensive lighters stay lit until you close them. The flickin' Bics & Crickets are not so good for throwing.
Great 'cap, Julie, great snark! What an episode- the wonderful mothering Crabi, she saw that Sofia was chilly in the bakery, and lit a fire to keep her warm. She also left a bit of evidence- the zippo, gas can w/prints, should be a bit of residue ON THE SEAT of the SUV, she dragged it across twice that we saw... I don't know if Rosario and Passion Fruit will be competing, looks like Rosario is going on a tour- whew! I'm not sure that I could take a night seeing BOTH of them perform in the same episode. I am looking forward to Niurka's act, tho, as Ninel's is getting tiresome, despite the margarita glasses, etc.
Julie, et al- a zippo like Crabi had should stay lit despite being tossed, they are wind proof and indestructable. A 2-pack-a-day buddy has used the same one for decades...of to the salt mine...
In a town where there are no telephones, I'm not surprised that there is no fire truck. Putting out a major fire with buckets of water is really funny. Are they in the 19th century.
The Reyes brothers can now have a fire sale on their bread because it was all baked by the fire.
Gabi is truly Rosemary"s baby.

Alas, what is Sophia going to do all day now that she can't sit in the bakery and watch the bread rise? After all the hoopla about Niurka, I'm surprised to finally see this "mature" overly salon-tanned, not so terrific looking woman. Rosario is way more attractive. And I think Rosario will either go away or die for some noble cause in the end and Franco will realize he only loved her for her beautiful eyes. Fernando was absolutely a hoot last night as he smiled and smirked in appreciation of someone even more evil than him, and Pablito .. just outstanding. Julie -- GREAT job.

Thanks!
The short version is up now.
I'm trying to avoid looking at the PDG recaps, even the recap titles, because sometimes I think I see something that hints at Fuego's future. :-(

Thanks for the short version Julie. You had a really good episode to work with. That summary really helps. Instead of Rosemary's baby it looks more like Chucky (Feo) and the bride of Chucky (Crabi).
Hi Julie: No worries on PdG, I think. I've been following the recaps of Fuego and it has gone SO far from the PdG storyline that I can't imagine that there could be any spoiler possibilities except that the three brothers end up with the three sister, which you had to know anyway.
Love your recap! It's hysterical and I've still never watched even a second of this novela.

Wonderful recap. Now I never went to film school but I bet there was a class on not filming the "beautiful" singer from the side that has the mic across it.Yikes. If they film her this badly Niurka's performance will not be up to the Yummy Killer's standard.
Gabby had so much gas on her she would have been toast.

Julie I couldn't wait to read the recap and you didn't not disappoint! That was awesome. Everyone here at work thinks I'm crazy sitting here laughing to myself! I want to know what could have possibly exploded in that place? Certainly not a bakery cart. Also, it was funny because the first few buckets of water actually doused a bunch of the flames and it looks like they had to start it up again. So not impressed with Ninels rival, and who wears their head mic when they are standing around chatting and the place is obviously not even open yet? Or does she always wear it just to clue people in that she must be someone important? Oy what a show! Thanks again for the awesome recap!
Julie, I did not see this episode, so I loved your description of Crabi throwing the gas container and having it bounce ineffectively a few feet away. Clearly there is no time for retakes, as we saw the other day when we could see Fern's microphone wires.
I can't believe I missed the debut of Niurka's fingernails. I will have to tune in tonight.

Thanks for the reassurance about PDG, Jean.
I think we were supposed to notice the big headset blocking her face - though I'm not sure why. Maybe it's for her phone and she doesn't khow about Bluetooth.
I wondered about the explosions too. Maybe there was some lighter fluid left that Quintina didn't use up when she blew up the oven.
The ricocheting gas can made me laugh too, because something like that happens to me whenever I try to throw something icky away. One time I had a lighting fixture full of dead bugs. Rather than just dump the bugs in the trash I wanted to take them outside and dramatically toss them over the porch railing. The ever-changing winds of New Beford shifted and blew all the dead bugs back at me.

The ricocheting gas can made me laugh too, because something like that happens to me whenever I try to throw something icky away. One time I had a lighting fixture full of dead bugs. Rather than just dump the bugs in the trash I wanted to take them outside and dramatically toss them over the porch railing. The ever-changing winds of New Beford shifted and blew all the dead bugs back at me.
The recap was hilarious. I guess Jimena and Sarita are able to sleep through a catagory 5 hurricane as well as retire to bed at sundown as good little girls should do. Why didn't they hear all the talking, laughing, yelling, door slamming and pounding on the huge door. I don't sleep that well with a sleep aids.

Besides killing Tadeo (too obvious) what can Feo and Crabi do to get him out of their way? Any thoughts?
I would love for Sarita to catch her mamita and Feo having a romp in bed. Would that be Sofia's fault too?

Connie:
Here's a few ideas on how to quietly eliminate Pad Tad without killing him:
1) send him off to his superiors to work on Sofia's annulment (no donkey for this trip...give the poor guy a car)
2) put him on tour with Rosario as a tutor to her poor son
3) give him a dose of Feo's Sleepy Time Tea via IV so he's out for about a month (no transportation woes with this option)
4) he decides to leave on his own in order to track down the truth about Feo & his sordid background
5) Crabi engineers his visit to the asylum where Abuelo was locked up for some time (her fake doc can help with this)
6) Pad Tad realizes he's stuck in a second-rate TN & hangs out with the Guapo gang at 8:00 for a while to clear his head

I think a few months ago that Crabi and/or Feo hinted or threatened to get Tadeo transferred to another parish. But do they have the power/clout to make it happen? Doubtful.
I'm sure there are other nonlethal ways to get rid of him, but Feo seems to prefer murder to the fuss and bother of scheming. And Crabi thinks that anyone who perturbs her peace deserves to die. So I think Tad's probably a marked man. :(
But I hope not, because the town's combined IQ would be cut in half if something happened to him!

Thanks for the great recap, Julie! Ok, Connie, I cried when Pablito cried for his grandmother. What a great little actor!!
It was pretty funny how the fire wouldn't go out for hours, it seemed! Crabi and Feo smootching again....EEEEWWWWW!
Dorado Dave, you will like Niurka. She's been on Uni shows before dancing and wearing pasties! She's pretty daring! Don't know if the'll show anything like that on the show, though.

Those are all good ideas! I hope they don't end up killing him though because he's a great character and who else would remind Crabi what a witch she is! I hope Crabi dies in some kind of fiery crash like Francisco in DA. That was one crispy critter! I even did a little dance. :)
I was bummed that Francisco de la Vega died before finding out that his rich new girlfriend was just another grifter like him. But I was glad he got to ooze for a little while before he kacked.
I am harder-pressed to think of what Feo and Crabi deserve. I can come up with lots of little scenarios, but I don't think any simple death would do either of them justice. It has to be something more elaborate, like Bertha's creepy lonely death on the Island of the Dolls in Heridas with El Guapo dead at her feet.

Nope, Pad Tad will NEVER be eliminated in this TN -- he clearly has Father, Son, Holy Ghost, Virgen, Virgencita, et al TOTALLY on his side.
Note how he always says that he has somebody bigger on his side when Feo threatens him.
Hankie of guilt! That's a hilarious terminology, but I think maybe it's a hankie of nervousness because of not being able to hang around and watch to the end and therefore taking a chance on non-completion of eveil deed. That Crabbi has no conscience.
Beckster I am with you -- the little green baby hulk -- ha ha , I've been wondering the same thing -- mama has been knocked around and ridden on bouncy horsey, and inhaled a lot of smoke and passed out in a burning bakery -- it will be incredible if the baby turns out to be a healthy green hulk!
Have you noticed how Juan now hugs Sofia's stomach area most of the time instead of her?
Julie your recap was really funny! I too loved the old evidence dump!
By the way did you all see the gossip tv film clip of Crabbi burning the bakery, where you can see all the crew and folks standing around watching her throw the gas and then the lighter?

Have been to a public event in Oaxaca, a city certainly large enough to have a fire dept truck--where the fire dept arrived in a small pickup truck and all 10 firemen got out of the back holding small fire extinguishers, the kind we keep in kitchens or next to bbqs.
I think there's a water availability problem -- no place with a cache of water big enough to pump from. Probably the same in Cd Serdan -- actually pretty much all of Mexico has a big water shortage problem.

You're right Julie, it was fun to watch Francisco suffer but it would have been even better if he had known his new girlfriend was a lying scumbag just like him. DA was my first TN and I loved it. I missed the first half of it so if someone could point me to some DVDs I would be eternally grateful.
Back to Crabi and Feo: I think he is going to set her up to take the fall in some fashion but it will backfire and they will both get what is coming to them. I think the Reyes brothers will gain back their hacienda and Crabi should have to work as a servant for them. And Sophia can just come up to her whenever she feels like it and give her a big SMACK. Now that would be sweet.

EXCELLENT recap, Julie! Crabi makes Snidely Whiplash look like a soft touch. Padre Tadeo has been living on borrowed time for so long that I'm beginning to hope all the foreshadowing and thought bubbles from Feo and Crabi are red herrings and that he's going to make it through.
One good thing about telenovelas, you know for sure that the two protagonists are going to end up in each others arms as the word "Fin" appears on the screen, usually with one or two rug rats with them. So, you never really have to worry about fires, falling from cliffs into the water, poisonous snakes, etc., etc.

I'd like to see Crabi end up in a wheelchair like her Pop. Only she won't be able to speak and will have to take a job in the Reyes bakery kneading dough.

If anybody "needs" dough it's going to be the Reyes brothers! What are they going to do for a living now?
I believe Raquel said a few weeks ago that she was thinking of building a couple of little houses on her own property for Octavio and Benito. Hmm, who do we know that can turn a small pile of bricks into a nice cottage?

They could get a job in the new night club, perhaps they could sing or tend the bar.

Job opportunties for the Reyes boys---How about them doing the full monty at the new bar ???? A fortune could be made . Imagine all the local mujers lining up to tuck money into their g-strings while buying the 2-drink minimum. ...I'm just saying...Good career advice usually involves taking advantage of your. . . wait for it . . . best assets. Although, the margarita glasses might not be doable in the case of these three big hombres...but using those ginormous sombreros in their act might be really intersting. Chippendales go south of the border.

Thanks so much for the recap Julie (short and long versions). I do hope that Padre T doesn't die b/c as you noted that will kill off most of the existing intelligence on the show.
I guess we are to believe that Ruth is Niurka's character as well as the new dance. Oh, those TN coincidences.
And I do like the male dancer idea as well. Heaven's knows the women in this town need some fun entertainment.

Fantastic Julie, lol, you're so clever!
Pablito sure can bring on the tears. He had me crying at his abuelita's death scene. Are those 'real' fake tears? You know, how does he do that? Onions? Are there props? He'll surely have a long telenovela career with cries like that...

Lola - I love the idea of Sarita catching her mom and BIL in a hot liplock (or worse). Except I think she'd quietly watch the whole thing and THEN get offended.
2:33, I never noticed that Juan always puts his hands on Sofi's tummy but I've noticed that in telenovelas/soaps, some of the men treat their pregnant sweeties as though they're 90% uterus. This rubs me the wrong way, while other people find it cute and touching, so I dunno.
As for doing a show at the new nightclub - if the Reyes brothers want to dance for their dinner, I have no objections!

The bakery's burnt out condition sort of brings a whole new meaning to the Reyes Brothers' "Krispy Kremes" franchise.
I'm wondering why other posters think that "Ruth" is the entertainer in the new hootchie kootchie club. Doesn't Raquel live in a mansion and threaten to disinherit her sobrinos if they don't marry "gente decente"? Would the daughter of such a snob be the entertainer in Bad Love Bar II?

Fabulous recap, Julie, and wonderful comments from viewers. This TN is double the pleasure, double the fun with the silly show topped by the snarky comments that follow.
Raising my hand to admit sniffing a few tears during Pablito's scene after Abuela's death. He's a good little actor and totally cute.
It's hard to decide who's the most evil--Crabi for her hatred and killing or Feo for nudging, training, and encouraging those evil deeds. Maybe there's a pool of quicksand next to the magic waterfall, where they can slowly sink together, each fighting the other as they go down.
The whole torching/fire scene seemed loaded with improbable stuff, not that we should be shocked at that. Too bad Gramps missed the action there.
In a previous comment, I misnamed Octavio and Benito as the Ibarra bros., instead of the Urribe bros. Sorry about that. I just find them mostly forgettable.
Tonight, I think I'll make a cup of tea or other beverage, spiked with love and ambient schmutz. That's in preparation to watching Niurka strut her stuff, which requires some kind of spiked drink.
La Paloma

Haven't seen last night's yet, but did read the recap. I understand Niurka has given up the platinum blonde she had in La Fea. Is this true?

The one thing I find myself hoping is Gabriela finds out before she dies or gets whatever punishment doled out to her just how stupid she was for trusting Fernando. This, after he uses HER and throws her away. A big taste of her own medicine.

My vote for Crabi's demise: human torch. Quite feasible, believe me, I know. One Thanksgiving, my brother (about 12yo then) was filling my grandfather's lighter. (Joe & I both have pyro tendencies.) When he finished, of course he tested the lighter. But the lighter fluid that had spilled on his hands during the task, made the test drive exciting! He ran from the living room to the kitchen with his hand on fire. No harm done; it was just the fluid burning off. Pretty memorable though.
Advantages of this end:
1. Feasible, as evidenced by my brother. She could do an encore performance of her arsonist schtick, spill some gas on herself, and as she ignites the lighter she bursts into flames.
2. Let the punishment fit the crime.
3. That whole inferno imagery for really bad TN villians
4. Very satsifying for us, and lots of screaming opportunities for our Wicked Witch of the West.

Julie, Thanks for the wonderful recap. I will remember some of your wonderful pet names for the disgusting Gabi's actions at ye olde evidence dump and waving her hankie of guilt.
I though Maracuya looked momentarily like Charlie Chaplin or HItler at first, from far away the little black microphone looked like a 19th Century mustache from across the living room, but I think in spite of that she will be a good character. Now is she Ruth? or where is Ruth.
You certainly pulled a highly emotive episode with the only really sad moment being the death of abuelita. Pobrecito, Pablito I hope he ends up one of the happy kids with all the babies at the end of this saga.

Niurka can't be Ruth.Ruth is the Uribe Boys' cousin.They would probably recognize her.IMHO mhm
