Querida Enemiga Monday July 28 - Ernesto has fine taste in exes

Diana finds Vasco alone in the dining room and tells him that she will be his girlfriend. They kiss and she tells him what a great person he is, etc.

At the engagement party, Don Toribio gives a toast to the couple, mostly to Alonso and what a great guy he is. Sara somehow manages to draw attention to herself and gives her own toast, being super fake as always. Pauls is there and dressed up nicely in an evening dress, she actually looks hot when she's not wearing her hair pulled back so tight, now she has a regular forehead instead of a fivehead. The cleavage helps too. When Sara gives Lorena a hug, she makes sexy eyes to Alonso behind her, Alonso looks very confused at this. He always looks that way but this time it was the right look.

Zulema and Omar talk in bed, he has some interviews tomorrow and is nervous. I wait for the bow chicka bow bow 'Omar I can help ease that tension....' especially after they kiss a couple more times than usual, but he actually stops and physically PUSHES her away and says he needs to go to sleep before his big day. She looks at his back in stunned silence.

Alonso reads aloud a card sent by Zulema, Lorena says how much she loves her. Bettina starts some music for dancing, they all get up and dance except for Sara who ends up being odd woman out. She glares at the scene of Lorena and Alonso kissing.

Diana tells Vasco that they have to tell her parents about their new relationship. She is worried that Vasco will get disowned the same way Omar did, Vasco says whatever. She says you don't care? He says of course he cares, it would hurt tremendously, but it won't deter him.

Sara very un-subtly butts in on Lorena and Alonso dancing so she can dance with him. Lorena is a bit stunned, but says ok. She looks quite cross at this development as she goes to sit down. Lucky for her Toribio butts in and takes Sara away, Alonso runs back to Lorena for more boring kissing. I'm not a huge fan of the kissing scenes the way you ladies are, unless there is disrobing of the female involved, but I agree that Lorena and Alonso couldn't melt an ice cube with any of their kisses.

Maruja and Rosy tell Paula how hot she looks when she tries, she must be beating the men away. Paula says she can't think about men right now. She is wrong, she totally could if she weren't being the ex-wife from hell. They dig in to the spread of food prepared by Zulema, then Toribio leads a sing along of Volver. Sara leans over around Lorena and squeezes her boobs together at Alonso, telling him what a fine voice he has. Again his normal confused look is appropriate. Lorena really squinches her eyebrows together at this boobie attack.

Hortensia and Barbara have breakfast the next morning, discussing that there is no news from Vasco. Jaime comes down in his pajamas. Hortensia orders him to clean up and go to work, he starts to protest, but caves in when she says to help interview candidates for his assistant.

Omar leaves for his interview. Vasco and Diana emerge from the back and Diana wants to tell everyone something, but they are too busy and all run out.

Sara, in her room, daydreams about Alonso. The doorbell rings and she whines that nobody answers the door. Of course everyone is gone, so I'm not sure what she expects. It's Lorena a the door and she's pissed, she wants to know if Sara is after Alonso and looks ready to fight about it. She manages to put on the sad act and "oh Lorena how could you think that we're like sisters" and stupid Lorena falls for it. Not as quickly as before, but she's still being stupid about it. Lorena, the boob squeeze/lean over maneuver is never accidental. You have to learn this.

Omar goes on his interview, he is told pretty rudely that he's behind the times, he can't do the work he used to do because he is out of practice.

Slimy Arturo and Barbara are each on their cell phone trying to find the other, they are right around the corner and bump into each other. Ha ha whatever. I hate these two, the both of them. I hope they go somewhere in a car to get busy and it rolls down a hill and explodes. Anyway, Arturo goes off to HR to interview for the job working for Jaime.

Jaime is sitting on a sofa in the back of the room while HR guy conducts the interviews, he couldn't care less. Some guy with a bad combover is being interviewed, after he leaves the HR guy tells Jaime that he is a good candidate, Jaime says whatever I'm going home. HR guy says there is one more, Jaime says you do it, I'm outta here.

Toribio and Paula go to Zulema's house, they want to buy food from her because it was so good at the party and neither one of them knows how to cook. Wow Paula really is useless. She's a horrible mother, doesn't work, and still doesn't know how to cook?

Maruja is leaving work, dressed nice and looking lovely for having just been working in a kitchen all day, and sees Jaime leaving. Jaime asks if she's busy, he needs someone to talk to. She agrees.

Barbara enters the HR guy's office as Arturo leaves, they pretend not to know each other. What an unattractive couple they make. Bleah. The ugliness of the total is greater than the sum of their individual ugliness. Bleck. She asks the HR guy how it's going, HR guy says it's between the guy that just left (Arturo) and the guy right before him (Combover).

Dario and Jackie come home, she is scared witless and Dario basically tells her "jeez give me a break."

Lorena talks homework with another student, if she has a name someone fill me in. She shows up often after this, she must have a name. They see an ad for their teacher having a presentation for his new book and plan to attend.

This same teacher, Ernesto, is getting ready for the event. Some boobie hottie arrives (yes please we need more of that on this show), her name is Vanessa and appears to be his ex. She wants to get back together but he doesn't, he tells her basically to get lost. I want to tell him "open your eyes man!" but is they were together before and not now, he must have his reasons. I can only assume she isn't as pleasant as she looks. She does look pleasant though. Where were we?

In class, a teacher makes special mention of two students and their grades on some assignment, first Sara who got a 9, then Lorena who is so great and got a 10. I guess grading there is on a 1-10 scale, not A/B/C/D like here. Sara looks very pleased with herself until hearing Lorena's score, then she is positively green with envy.

Chalo is at the clinic and complains that his leg hurts, Alonso says it shouldn't any more. Chalo is obviously carrying on for one reason or another, just to make trouble I guess. He asks about 'Lorenita' and Alonso looks like he'll punch him but is interrupted by Paula and Toribio, stopping by to say hi. Chalo sees Toribio and says "That's the guy who hit me! You coward, you hit me and ran off!" Toribio looks worried, then denies everything, but eventually admits it after being badgered for a minute.

Bettina is at Dario's place. He says Jackie is sleeping, but she can stay and do her homework while he goes to a meeting, but be quiet. When he comes back they'll watch a movie.

Chalo wants 20,000 pesos to keep his mouth shut about the accident. Alonso accepts to keep Toribio out of trouble.

Lorena's friend at school warns her about Sara, saying she was very jealous when Lorena got the 10. Stupid Lorena says oh no, that can't be true, we're like sisters. PLEASE writers of this show let her snap out of this delusion soon, it's so irritating.

Alonso and Paula yell at Toribio. Toribio is sorry and says to prove he won't drive again, he'll sell the car.

Rosy ice skates in her sexy tight jeans looking good, Julian wants to quiz for the game show, then has to admit that he's afraid to skate. She manages to get him out on the ice where he proceeds to fall a lot.

Jaime and Maruja both feel weird being together like this, they agree that they are doing nothing wrong. He tells her she's so nice and he feels better already. He buys her a candy apple from a vendor and she is surprised he likes them, she thought he'd only like elegant food. Then she gets serious and says the he should know that her daughter is dating his brother Omar's stepson.

Omar comes home dejected, he got turned down three times. He's too out of touch with his career. Anyone know what career this actually is?

Maruja and Jaime go over who is who in the families real quick, then Jaime says he's surprised she knows the dirty secret of the family. She says it's not her place to judge, she just says that because she likes him. She tells him to get close to Omar's family, he says he'd like to but Omar hates him and with good reason.

Bruno finds Sara and hits on her, she lashes out at him and tells him to get lost, the woman he treated so poorly is her half-sister! He looks a bit impactado.

Valeria gives Alonso a copy of the note Bruno sent to the lady boss, ratting him out for not covering for him last night. Al wants to confront him but Valeria says you can't because gosh would you believe it, he's not here.

Lorena does homework and Rosy and Julian come home, Julian is sore everywhere. Maruja comes out and Julian asks for Arnica. She doesn't have any, he says surely his mom does. Lorena comments on how wonderful Zulema is, Rosy agrees. Julian says he thinks that way about her mom. Maruja is pleased and gives him a huge hug, which brings him great pain. Ha ha comic relief, even the music lets us know this.

Bettina talks to her mom in the dark on her cell phone, I guess it wakes up Jackie because she flips the light on and screams like a little girl. Jackie tries to explain that they have a ghost in the apartment. Bettina says she didn't see anything.

Lorena and her school friend go to Ernesto's presentation. Some pretty lady sits down by them and claims to be Ernesto's girlfriend, then another woman (please writers find a way to put her on screen every episode and not just this one as a bit player hubba hubba) sits on the other end of the row, another ex of Ernesto's, the two ladies catfight over Lorena and her friend. Then some other ladies walk in that are apparently exes too. Ernesto finally arrives to start the show.

Some commercial for a soccer game or something - did I mistakenly find a non-family channel? The woman in the commercial has a super tight shirt with very prominent nipples sticking out for the entire ad. I'm not complaining but jeez I really wasn't expecting that.

Bruno and Al argue, Bruno says "Tough crap for you, I'm your boss." Al says what happened, they were friends! Bruno says are you asking me to play favorites? Alonso gets very frustrated and almost makes the mistake of making this altercation physical.

Ernesto talks about Mexican Cuisine and his book, to much applause. Hottie boobie girl Vanessa that we saw earlier in the show arrives, Lorena's friend says this must be another ex, Lorena says Ernesto must have dumped her for being late. Ha ha!

Ernesto talks to his editor, then his sister and brother in law show up. All comment on the amount of lovely ex-girlfriends in attendance. Ernesto says not all are exes, see those two are students, pointing at Lorena and her friend.

Lorena's friend says Ernesto is hot, Lorena of course doesn't chime in because she's so in loooove with dull Alonso. She makes some crack about the title of Ernesto's next book but he overhears and gives her a stern look. She looks worried, but what can he do? They aren't in school.

Next episode - Omar and Zulema start to get a bit suspicious of Sara, since she's such a bitch all the time. Also, Ernesto apparently takes a liking to Lorena. Great. We get to see more blank face/angry Alonso sometime soon.

Good one Chris. I was laughing through the whole recap. This was my favorite: "The ugliness of the total is greater than the total sum of their individual ugliness" . Dang, that was a mouthful.

However Omar shunning Zulema bummed me out. What's his damage? Is it the ED as suspected?

Is Jaqui really afraid of a ghost? She's such an ass.

Thanks Chris! Excellent recap!
 

Yep, you always make me laugh, Chris. Frankly I liked your fantasy about Barbara and Arturo geting busy in the car and it running off a cliff (or something) and FINITO.

Just when I was thinking we were dealing with a show of normal, but attractive, cleavage...in come the Big Bombers!!! Vanessa has obviously been to the surgeon and got the large family size variety. As did one of the other exes. Interesting outfits for a book lecture, I must say.

Looking forward to a little cooking chemistry between Lorena and Ernesto. Did think Alonso showed a little emotion when on the brink of punching out Bruno...maybe "anger" is in his acting repertoire somewhere.
 

Thanks, Julie, for going above and beyond and recapping while feeling barfy [like Juan]. ''....he's guarding her and protecting her...'' ...yeah, that's what I'm talking about. So, Juan is now having sympathetic morning sickness. And, I can't remember at what month you can feel the baby start to move , but it's not for awhile, so Sofi must be farther along than she looks . And can we hope that the bonbon assasin will put 2 +2 together and be the one to figure out that her regular rapist is also Sofia's rapist ???? With all those episodes left , I'm not expecting this revelation to happen quickly. And just wait until Crabby finds out that Octavio has left town and Oscar and Jimena are hitched...ay carumba . Abuelo really got a good one in there by telling her that it wouldn't be fittin' for Ferd to stay at the hacienda with Sarita and Jimena gone...Curses, foiled again [thought bubbles the Crabby One]. And why is Coyote still harrassing Ferd now that Ferd has paid his debt???...not that I mind...I like anyone who harrasses Ferd ..in any way. Uh-oh, I hope that Pad Tad professing that he would defend love ''until he dies'' is not foreshadowing his death.
 

Whoops...sorry ..I posted this on the wrong site...It belongs on Fuego en la Sangre. That's what I get for trying to post while rushing to get ready for work. Stupido !!! ~~~Susanlynn, the witless mixing her metaphors and her novelas ...Wjere am I ???? P.s. i am rooting for Sara and Bruno to get together...that would be poetic justice---two slimeballs together. Afterall, Chalo is stupid and horny , but Bruno is calculating and soulless and , therefore, a nbetter match for the conniving , coldhearted Sara.
 

Hey Susanlynn...we enjoy reading your posts, whatever they're about. No need to stick to the show babe!
 

Thanks, Susanlynn, I'll take a compliment wherever I can find it. :)

But jeez, how slow is Lorena?? How many hints and warnings does she need? Maybe she should stick with Alonslow after all.
 

Great recap. Yes, the parade of Ernesto's hot exes in their book lecture outfits was quite entertaining. I don't expect to see Lorena in similar garb anytime soon.

One would think the combover guy would get the job as Snorty's assistant, since he had all that cooking experience, and Arturo didn't seem to have any (he just said he had his own company, and mainly relied on his personality), but I'm sure Arturo will end up with the job. The "small world" of this novela keeps getting more and more entwined.

I noted that Chalo said he missed "a month of work" in calculating his damages from the car accident. Maybe they could ask to see some paystubs!
 

Yeah Hombre, let's see those paystubs. I agree. And wow did Alonso give in to his extortion demands rather quickly.

I'm voting for a half hour nightly show devoted to Ernesto's stable of hotties. I don't have a format idea, whatever is fine.
 

Okay Ferro and Hombre...WE'LL go along with that idea as long as Ernesto (aka Prof HAWT) is front and center.

Maybe a big harem scene and he's the big pooh bah.
 

Ferro, if that means a half hour less of stupidity and cruelty each evening, I don't hate the idea. Just make sure Professor Ogre is there.
 

LOL, Judy!
 

Ladies, that's all fine with me.

I'm hoping that Lorena wakes up soon about Sara, having her blindly defend her is getting old. There are plenty of things that can be done even if Lorena knows Sara is evil.
 

Oh...on another note. There's a kinder gentler theory on Lorena's annoying obtuseness.

Supposedly you can only recognize behavior or feelings that you have experienced yourself.

And since Lorena is a completely loyal friend who would NEVER try to hurt or take something precious away from another....she CANNOT recognize those sentiments in others. It's like those Native Americans who couldn't see ships when they arrived at the New World because ships weren't in their brain schemes.

I dunno...take this as you will. Must say I never "saw" cell phone towers until my husband pointed them out to me. But hey, I'm just flaky.

PS Tagged it for you, Ferro.
 

Can somebody run it down for me again how to add a link to the sidebar link? I just figured all this time it was being done by the magical internet gremlins or something, now I realize I was being like the people who dump garbage on the movie theater floor even though there is a HUGE garbage can RIGHT THERE. Sorry everyone, I feel so selfish. So how do you do it?
 

Thanks for the recap Ferro. I agree with you all that Lorena needs to get a clue. While I understand judyb's explanation for Lorena's dullness, can't the writers at least have her slowing realize there are many things amiss about her "best" friend.
 

I just thought of something regarding Judy's theory - how did Lorena fall in luuuuurrv so fast then? She surely didn't see that in an all-female orphanage/convent! At least I don't think so, since this show isn't a porno. The writers are just making her stupid in one specific area to keep the show rolling along on its current path. Dang. I was hoping there was some reason besides 'stupid' for her being ignorant. And after the boobie smush/lean over presentation and everything, how can she be so blind?
 

I thought that Lorena's new school pal looked like a younger version of the psychologist that Hot Rodrigoooo got involved with in Destilando. With all those hot exes [Boobalas on Parade] , evidently Ernesto has other talents besides the cooking.
 

Okay Ferro...when you got invited to be a recapper, you were given a del.icio.us link and a tag link. They should be on the top right of your screen (or maybe that's just were my daughter put them...I'm a computer ignoramus) And Melinama would have sent you an e-mail explaining how to tag. If that e-mail is long gone, you can ask her to send it again.

Anyway, when I click on your permalink at the end of your recap it takes me to the page where I then click on "tag" and the title of your recap appears. Then all I have to do is type in "enemiga" where it says "tag" and hit "save" and voilà!

Sometimes things are goofy and instead you get something where you have to sign in. In the first box, you put "caray" and in the second box you put "caray"...then again, you have it.

Once, with me, things got REALLY crazy, and the correct title was all goofy, and I had to "backspace" it off and type in the correct one. This is no longer happening thank God.

And like most of the universe, this whole thing is a mystery to me, but most of the time I can do it.
 

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...hope we get to see some of Ernesto's other talents soon, Susanlynn.

Love your Boobalas on Parade...that's pretty much a three-word summation of Univision,
