Guapos: Monday 6/30/08- "Bobby's eyes open so he can finally see & Rocky falls for Val"
The show starts with a little rewind into the end of Friday’s episode---Alejandro consoling Bobby, Florencia slapping Mili.
Mili tells Flo that she was with Hugo and her friends at the Rodeo, NOT with Al. Flo still doubts her and Mili says go and find the girls, they’re in their room and they’ll verify where I was, but you’ll end up having to explain why you suspect your husband is unfaithful. They back and forth it a little bit and Flo finally realizes she might have jumped to the wrong conclusion and Mili tells her that if Al is being unfaithful, it’s not with her, so it must be some other woman (burn!).
Meanwhile, across town, Maricela is tending to the superficial wounds on Mateo’s face. She tells him she feels terrible and will have to apologize to Bobby. Mat scoffs and Mari says that Bobby doesn’t deserve this. Mat has a couple insults to fling in Bobby’s general direction, however Bobby’s not there to hear them---it just riles up Mari. She insists that Bobby is important to her and Mat quickly replies- if he’s so important, why are you sleeping with me? Mat suggests that Mari take this opportunity and send Bobby packing. She’s not liking this conversation, and right about now she’s not really liking Mat. So she tells him to take a hike.
The next morning…..Rocky and crew are breakfasting in the servants dining area. They are rehashing the facemask-kissing fiasco. The girls and Horacio are having a good time teasing Rocky about it all and he’s trying to explain to them that it was possibly the worst moment in his life and most likely Val thinks he’s even a lower form of scum than she did before. Rocky asks Horacio to talk him up to Val when he’s out driving her around that day.
Outside, eating breakfast, Luci is still rehashing the previous day to Val. She’s saying how disgusting it was to have kissed a servant and Val insists that it can’t have been all that bad because Rocky is a good kisser. Luci starts to express her disgust at that comment when Connie joins them. Val mentions that she is sad because she doesn’t want her parents to split (because they have been such a unified family up until this point). She suggests they seek therapy and Connie makes some dig about how Luci like’s psychiatrists, like Eugenio. Luci tosses out Bobby’s mom’s name (can’t remember what it is and didn’t write it down). Val questions why Bobby’s parents, who are in Italy, are being dragged into this. Val leaves and Connie tells Luci no way are they divorcing. Luci says she can no longer tolerate being with Connie, and besides she’s got a new man now. Connie laughs and leaves. Luci gets right on the phone to Nestor and tells him that she’s got her stuff packed and is switching rooms in the mansion. Connie doubts she’ll actually file for divorce, but when her lawyer comes to call on him, then he’ll know she’s serious.
Flo lets into Al when he comes home, finally. She demands to know why he stayed out all night and why he didn’t call. She starts up on the whole him being with Mili thing. Al says he was consoling Bobby all night because Flo’s sister is a cheating slut---Bobby caught her in bed with Mateo. That shuts Flo up.
Padre Manuel has Damian mucking out the pig sty. He suggests Damian sing to the pigs to keep them tranquil.
Mateo visits Connie at the office. Connie thinks it is about Mili, but Mateo quickly lets him know he’s there on business for Luci. He’s representing her in her divorce. Connie is stunned.
Luci goes to visit Hugo. He’s painting something abstract and in bold colors. They discuss his happiness and he insists he’s happy and that is reflected in his artwork. The upcoming wedding is brought up and Luci urges Hugo to move out with Mili once they are married. Hugo says that’s not up to him alone, he has to see how Mili feels about the idea. Luci adds, you’re not doing this for Al, but for your own benefit. Hugo calls his aunt a hypocrite and reminds her that she’s going to get caught in all of her lies and then she’ll lose everything.
Flo apologizes to Mili about the slap. Mili says you’d do it again if you had the chance. Flo says she was mistaken and wants to say she’s sorry. Mili’s not buying the routine. She tells Flo that perhaps she should tell Al the truth and see what happens. At that moment, Al is heading right for them so Mili suggests now would be a good time. Flo comes up with some little cover story as to what she and Mili are discussing when Al asks what’s going on. Mili tells Al that she got slapped by MP1 last night because she thought Mili was with Al. This ticks Al off and MP1 insists that she has since apologized for it. Al leaves. Mili tells MP1 that she’s doing her a favor so her child can be raised with two parents so a good way for Flo to show her thanks for this would be to treat Mili a little better.
Connie tells Mateo this visit is a waste of time because it is absolutely absurd. No way are they divorcing. Mateo starts to list off what Luci desires in the divorce settlement. It sounds like she wants it all and her freedom, too. Connie is outraged and tells Mat to get out. Mateo says he’s going to go file the paperwork with the judiciary.
Bobby and Al arrive at the office and lo and behold run into Mateo (who is sitting down in the lobby, obviously in no rush to file the paperwork—I’m sure he’s just trying to create some more billable hours). Bobby lets into the lawyer and Mat insults Bobby’s abilities to make a woman happy (methinks that Mateo is a tad obsessed with Bobby’s bedroom skills).
Andrea runs to Connie to tell him the gossip of what’s going on in the reception area. Connie doesn’t want to hear about it.
Val tells Horacio she’s depressed and she refers to him by his name. Horacio questions why he’s not being called Morgan and she tells him that’s just when they are around other people. Horacio thinks she’s depressed about Rocky, but Val insists she’s upset about her parents getting a divorce. Horacio tries to put in a good word for Rocky. Val says she’ll never forgive him. Horacio wants to tell her something (the truth about what Rocky did three years before) and Val doesn’t want to hear it. She tells him if he keeps talking about Rocky, she’ll fire him (Horacio).
We are treated to a montage of Damian in his various daily duties falling asleep everywhere---in the pig sty, in church, in Bible study, washing the floor. He calls Connie and says that PM is torturing him, driving him crazy. He asks for Connie’s help, but Connie doesn’t have time for him.
Hugo and Mili discuss Flo and what happened. Hugo tells Mili that he’s sure that Mili’s comments have probably left Flo with her mouth hanging open. He then tells Mili he’s got a surprise for her and he takes her to their new apartment. He just bought them, a place for them to live after they are married.
Fernando and Mateo shoot the breeze…..basically revealing what we already know---they are rat bastards and only use women as objects for their personal gain—either sexual or monetarily.
At work, Bobby can’t concentrate. He tells Al that he can’t get his mind off of Mari. Al says off of her or off what she did. Right then, Mari arrives. She asks to speak with Bobby and for Al to give them some time alone. Bobby says she’s got nothing to say that he wants to hear. Al urges his friend to at least hear her out and he leaves. Mari tries to explain and Bobby asks her why she did this? She says because she was foolish. He asks if she loves Mateo and she says nope. He says that’s worse, she cheated on him because of lust, if she loved Mat it would have been easier. Mari insists she was just being stupid and Bobby goes on to explain he likes order in life and in people. Everyone on in their places and basically says a slut like you should be in a whorehouse. She slaps him and that brings about an end to this conversation.
Connie and Luci are at home. They have some words about the divorce. He threatens her and she tells him that he’s got more to lose so she’s not worried. He threatens some more and she tells him keep it up and I’ll go to the press and give them an interview which will fill them in on your past and all you little misdeeds. Luci leaves the room and heads out of the house. She runs into Flo and tells her that she had a talk with Hugo and everything’s going to be OK. Connie head out after Luci.
Bobby’s at the mansion now. He’s walking out with Lina and thanking her for letting him know the truth about MP2. Lina says that Mari was stupid for treating such a super guy so terribly. They discuss his bad luck with women—Val then Mari. We can tell that Bobby’s looking at Lina, realizing that here’s a girl who’s been there all along. It appears he’s about to say something to her, but then Fernando, rat bastard, arrives to take Lina out on a date.
Braulio tells Socorrito that Karla’s AWOL and he’s going to have to fire her. Soco asks Brau to be lenient because Karla’s been upset over this whole situation with Damian. Gloria comes running in and says that Rocky’s up on the roof. They all run out.
Karla, dressed as a nun, sneaks into the religious house and into Damian’s room. He’s wiped out and flopped on the bed. She enters the room with a flask and starts to strip. Damian doesn’t protest.
Fernando takes Lina to his place and starts to make the moves on her.
Everyone’s trying to talk Rocky down from the roof. Val arrives with Horacio and they catch sight of the happenings. Val orders Rocky down and he says he’s going to jump unless she listens to him. She says go ahead and jump because he’s only going to break some bones, there’s no way he’ll kill himself with that short of distance. They go back and forth a bit and she ends up telling him that he broke her heart and he tries to tell her that things aren’t like she thinks they are. She walks away, not wanting to hear anymore and he follows her and loses his balance and falls off the roof. She goes running over to him. END OF EPISODE
Mili tells Flo that she was with Hugo and her friends at the Rodeo, NOT with Al. Flo still doubts her and Mili says go and find the girls, they’re in their room and they’ll verify where I was, but you’ll end up having to explain why you suspect your husband is unfaithful.

Thanks for the great recap, Cathy. I had to miss this episode, as I was out of town. I hope Val and Rocky are getting back together soon. Sounds like we might be close.
The interplay between Flor, Al and Mili was interesting. Clever of Mili to tattle on Flor to Al in that way.

Thanks Cathy!
I loved the color coordinated discussion between Flor, Mili & Al - they all had on yellow, white and black. And Constancio must have gotten the memo because he too was in a black suit, white shirt & yellow tie later. The whole bumble-bee thing just stood out to me!
Although I wish they would get Damian out of the religious mode, I did find his puerquitos scenes kind of cute.
I'm impressed with Mili that she's being tough with Flor and not hiding anything from Al (oh except for that one big thing.....)
Even though Luciana is #1 on the evil list, I enjoyed her getting the best of Constancio. His shock at her actually going through with the divorce plans was amusing, and when she started listing out his past sins that she could reveal, he could only sputter.
Why did Hugo go ahead and buy the penthouse apartment without consulting Mili after explaining to Luci that it was Mili's decision too? Nice apartment, but still, not something that should be a unilateral decision.

Thank you Cathy for the fun recap of this fun episode!
Anybody else thinks Hugo’s canvas had violent rather than cheery colors?
And what a break-up scene with Marisela and Bobby! Here she comes looking dorky in a hard hat, and they have their big blow up right in front of the construction workers who seem not to be paying attention.
What is with the apartments of the rich? So sterile! I liked Mili’s family home better.
And yeah, Flor is awful, but still! I think any wife would want a phone call or at least a sticky note if her husband took off in the middle of the night. If you’re not jealous, you’d be playing out scenes of car wrecks in your mind. And who wants to live with their in-laws, and even worse, your husband’s great love? Al’s “get over it” attitude hardly puts him in the husband of the year category. Doesn’t she have any say-so in where she lives?
The acting was really great in this episode – Connie, Damien, Lina, Bobby, Vale etc!

Flo would do anything to hang on to Al so bunking at the Belmontes is just one more thing she has to do. I too noticed the color theme of the day but only on Flo and Mili Duh! Televisa must have gotten some savings on those clothes by buying in bulk.
Loved Booby tell MP2 the facts as he sees them and not blubbering away about being used. I was glad to see that he finally noticed Lina although in the past he has always been kind of protective with her, probably without knowing why.
Was it just me or did that scene in Frat boy's (can't call him Fern that's reserved for JC on LFMB) apartment with Lina make you uncomfortable. I kept waiting for him to pull out some GHB and dump it in her drink and then remembered that's Nestor's trick.
I was surprised that during that vindictive scene between Luci and connie that he didn't tell her she was getting nothing because if she went ahead with her divorce he would spill the beans to Al. She would and has done anything to keep that secret.

Maggie, I thought the same thing about that apartment. So white and soulless! Although I guess once they moved in they could make it their own and add some life, but still, Mili should have been consulted. She does still own that house, I assume...maybe she would want to live there. Or another house, or another sort of apartment. I guess Hugo thought asking her about all that wouldn't have the dramatic romantic surprise factor of an already-purchased apartment.
Karla was wearing the day's colors as well...yellow nun's robes with black skivvies underneath. I can't believe she wasn't struck by lightning for impersonating a nun for the purpose of getting some action. In a convent.
The frat boy "seduction" scene was SO uncomfortable, mostly because Lina looked so uncomfortable. She never put down her wine glass when they started smooching, and I thought maybe that was deliberate, so she could "accidentally" spill it or something and break up the action.
Those little pigs were so cute!

Hey, Decie girl! Good thinking on how Connie could put Luci in checkmate.
I loved Karla’s striptease and Damien’s reactions. What I was worried about is that his door doesn’t seem to have a lock and the padre and the nuns seem to come in without knocking.
I was uncomfortable too with the Lina seduction scene, probably because it was so well done. She looked so small and awkward and tentative there on the couch and here he comes all smooth and slinky with his glasses of wine. She had “first time” written all over her, and knowing what a snake the guy is, well, it makes one cringe.

I forgot to post that obviously Damian's "priest" days are numbered and wonder who will catch him in the act Padre Manuel or Sor Cachete which would give her more to discuss with the girls instead of french kissing. LOL
I'm confused about that house. It was always my understanding that the house belonged to Regina. Every time Luci mentioned "her"" house Regina corrected her. So since Mili inherited all of Regina's things it seems to me the house is hers not the lush's.
Oh yeah and Mili has gone on at length throughout the show about the poor kids at the orphanage and worried about them getting enough to eat. Now we learn that they grow tomatoes and have a small hog farm - yeah right in or near a tony part of the DF. I don't think so - but on the other hand it did make for some hilarious scenes with the over worked Damian (who will probably never eat a pork chop again).

I wonder if maybe Mili's concern about the orphans was more about deprivation in general...no one at that convent looks like they're going hungry.
I, too, thought the house belonged to Mili now. It was definitely Regina's; she reminded Luci and Connie of that fact frequently. Or maybe it's part of her inheritance that she somehow can't take official possession of until she marries? In that case I think she should throw Luci out the minute she and Hugo sign the marriage papers. Why is Luci hanging around anyway? You'd think she'd want to get away from the guy she's divorcing and everyone else in the house that she hates. There must be a good liquor store in Cuernavaca.
I think Bobby's being rather matter-of-fact about ending things with Marisela. It's satisfying to see someone not get away with their deception, for once.

Finally got a chance to see this, and count me into the crowd that was writhing during the set up seduction scene with Lina in the apartment.
Preceded by that icky conversation with Mateo about how once he "had" the sirvienta he would dump her.
Sure hope she drops that drink and gets out of there before anything happens.
Apartment is horrible. Floors and decor looked ice-cold. Symbol of lack of passion in the relationship?
Anyway, sure hope Val and Rocky get together soon so SOMEONE CAN BE HAPPY.
And yes, Maggie, much as I dislike Florinda, who wouldn't be upset if one's husband was out all night and didn't call.
Cute title Cathy...especially the "Rocky falls for Val" part. Thanks for the recap.

Interesting comment about that oh so chic oh so modern and ice cold penthouse being sterile like the relationship between Mili and Hugo. Add that it was all white symbolic of her virginity and innocence perhaps.
Then we had the scene with all those pigs followed shortly thereafter by the slimy Frat Boy/ Rat Boy talk. I can't believe that Frat Boy would hang around Lina for three years and not have dumped her already. What won't these guys do for a notch on their bed post. Yuck.
Anyone notice that Flo failed to correct Mili for calling her Floreenda once again. I guess she figures it is a lost cause.

Good catch; I hadn't noticed the link between the pigs and then Frat&Rat. Probably because I thought the pigs were adorable; the dudes, not so much.
I can't imagine Frat has been dating Lina exclusively all this time; he probably just thinks she's a fun challenge for those nights when he can't find someone less particular. Such a toad.

Hey Julia, I didn't catch on to Karla's colors, you're right! I'm not catholic, but I found that scene kind of uncomfortable - a bolt of lightning would have been fitting!
And I certainly agree with you all on the scene with Lina. It actually reminded me of being her age and wondering how to get out of an uncomfortable situation. I think Bobby should have to work a little to win Lina, but frat boy needs to go.
And before everyone thinks I have horrible taste, I meant the apartment was nice as in spacious and upscale. My husband and I have a 106 year old Victorian home, but I assume people in their 20s probably like that modern look. And you're right JudyB, it's a great metaphor for the lack of passion in their relationship.
