Fuego 8-7-8 Thurs. - The past haunts and the future unravels?
Sarita is praying to the virgin and then has a fond sensual recollection of grasping Pedro’s hand. She smiles then tells herself she’s going to be a nun so why should she even think about him.
Gabi has gone upset to her room, she recalls the fickle finger of Feo fondling her and this gives her the urge to molest her pillow.
Feo however is noting how that good for nothing Anselmo had always been so trusting and so he was able to fool him easily. Armando suggests that Anselmo might seek vengance but Feo smugly says he’ll never know who betrayed him. He’s pretty sure she’ll never react anyway.
Eva begs the almightys to spare her daughter Rosi. Miraculously they are listening and we see Rosi move a few fingers and grab Eva’s hand.
Armando pouring a drink also thinks it’s best if Rosi never wakes up, but Franco could be a problem. Feo proclaims the time has come to eliminate the Reyes.
And just in case you thought he was kidding we flash over to Franco’s listless body in the bubble and Feo comes in and reaches for a pillow. He presses down hard as we see what I think is a heart rate monitor machine decreasing numerically and Franco appears to wretch a little. Feo looks constipated.
Voices from outside interrupt his evil deed. It’s Paddy Tad giving him a pep talk telling him not to give up. Feo amazingly sneaks out unnoticed during this and runs back to Armando mad that he did not succeed and that damn Tad ruined it again and that was no doubt their last chance. Tad does take a second look.
Feo is going into Rosi’s room where we see a man staring at her pictures. Feo is startled by him, recognizing him as the aforementioned Anselmo.
Back at Rosi’s side, Eva tells Tad of the miracle and that she has to inform the others. Tad thanks his creator for this favor and notices the illumination fade from the cross. He appears somewhat impactado.
Anselmo and Feo are getting reacquainted and Ans wants to know what of Rosi. Feo tells him she’s gone and escaped and he knows not where for years. Just then menacing Ofi comes in screaming that she needs something from Feo, and then recognizes Ans too and wonders what he’s doing back. She spills the beans that Rosi is in hospital in bad shape. Ans turns to Feo and wants to know what gives, why’d he lie. Note the HUGE tatoo on his arm clearly showing this guy has an interest in Rosi.
Sofi goes in to see Rosi who has woken and recalls nothing. Sofi very kindly informs her that someone attacked her and Franco, and that Franco is delicate but getting better.
Juan is visitng this Franco who doesn’t look much different. Juna give him a pep talk to get better now that Rosi has.
Feo tells Ans he was trying to spare him a big pain. Ans wonders why no one came to visit him, Ofi again busts Feo and says everyone thought Ans was dead. Why? Because Feo said. This causes Ans to grab Feo who swears he told them this only to protect Rosi and the boy. Ans isn’t sure what to believe but he wants to see them and see if he can get Rosi’s pardon, so he escaped from jail to take her far away. Feo says well, that’s not possible because Rosi isn’t going to survive. Again right on cue, Eva runs in and breaks the news that Rosi recovered. Ans learns Eva is Rosi’s Ma.
Ofi tells Eva who is Ans and that he wants to take her away.
Ofi and Eva go to drip tears all over Rosi. Eva worries that man will now take her away.
Feo is swearing to Ans they have always been good friends and he has no reason to doubt him.
Ans agrees that prison life has embittered him and well shoot, they are like brothers, He gives Feo a giant hug. Feo wonders what his plans are. He thinks he’ll sneak over the border and got to South America, he just needs money. Feo tells him not to worry, to hide here and tomorrow they’ll figure it out. He welcomes trusting Ans.
Feo then tells two guys to bring a bottle of tequila and something to eat to Rosi’s room. While he and Arm walk off, the two guys wonder what mystery is being hidden these guys are acting strange.
Feo tells Arm that Ans showed up and Arm says told ya so. Feo swears Rosi won’t go anywhere. Arm worries about the Tumbao taking them over and Feo says well, they don’t have a singer either.
This is our lead in to Benito telling his Tia they need to find a singer fast. Tia says he should go to Mexico or at least Puebla to find someone.
Just then Don Auggie shows up. He asks Raquel if she didn’t buy the hacienda from a family names Robles and if she might know where he could find them. Raquel gets impactada face.
She says she has no idea. Auggie wants to know why then some of the lands of Robles went to San Augustin. Raquel says you have to ask Crabby, she knows and it’s something very delicate so I can’t tell you. She says that it was in payment for a service that she and her hubby performed for Gabi. She won’t tell though and he has to ask Crabby.
Crabby is in no shape to receive anyone right now, she’s still bawling and pining over Feo.
Sofi is messing around and finds the trunk with the FR initials. She remembers seeing them before, but doesn’t know where. Juan comes in and says this was his family ensignia. She wanders why they were killed. He tells that they were owners of a huge hacienda, doesn’t know why they were killed, but htere land was stolen. Juan swears vengenace on the murderers whoever they may be.
Feo is still baiting Ans, telling him he’ll help when he wants to leave and to stay as long as needed.
Ans wants to know about him, how’s his life, married? Kids? Feo looks impactado too.
Juan is now telling his childhood memory of his parents murder to Sofi. He also says he remembers a belt buckle with a certain shape. He remembered the shots and screams of his mother. That guy killed his parents in cold blood and Juan swears he’ll find and make this guy pay and nothing can stop him. Sofi says she finally gets it and that he is sooooo strong nothing will keep him down.
Pedro is singing and making bread. Benito shows up and heard him singing. He thinks he did well, and wants him to see if he would like to try out to sing at the club. Pedro wants to wait to see what Juan will say. Juan agrees and thinks that would be great. Looks like we have our new singer.
Pedro sings with a full band and wonders what Benito thinks. Benito looks like he’s going to sack them, but then gets wayyyy to excited and says he’ll be hired!!! And there is much jubilation.
Juan shows Sofi how to molest bread. Yuck. Somehow he compares it to caring for their baby. The abominable breadman is the end result. Bet he doesn’t cook evenly. They kiss to Vicente’s serenade.
Oscar and Jime are at the table and Oscar is complaining about all the rules and that he can’t deal. Jime begs him to do it for her. Of course he will try to keep the peace with the Ma in law, for her. They make out just when Crabby comes him to shame them for such acts in the dining roll. Jime promises not to do it again.
Quinti and Pablito come up on Juan and Sofi sucking face and run off. All of a sudden it’s next morning and Juan is sleeping just as cute as a bunny. Sofi brings him breakfast. It looks good. Eggs with chiles and beans and chips!!
Crabby is painting by numbers some Edward Munch look like thing and saying that she has to drive Oscar nuts so he can’t stand it here anymore.
She goes out to the land and tells him he apparently knows nothing about tending to the land. He says she is there to show him. She mocks him that hopefully one day he won’t be the laughing stock and will show her he’s worthy. Yeah, he’s got a little steam starting to come out.
Sarita shows up at the orphanage to help and Pedro shows up and sees her and starts singing. Some of the kids start dancing. Sara gets nervous and spills the water to the laughter of all the kids. Pedro stops singing and recalls Juan’s warning.
G-Pa shows up at the hacienda with Raquel and screams to Crabby to tell him just why she enjoys tormenting Sofia so much about her origin. Gabi says it’s something painful that neither he nor Sofi would want to know. Just then Raquel shows up and tells Crabby they need to talk and G-Pa says not so fast, you are free to say it all in front of me and we can clear up what the heck is the service that was paid for with such valuable land. These ladies are impactada, and that’s where we end.

Although I did feel a bit sorry for Pedro cast as The Gorilla. Yeah, he's got a LOT of chest hair, my goodness. But geez, whatday'all want the poor guy to do? He was born with the chromosome for it! At least he keeps his T-shirt on. I wouldn't go through the pain and agony of waxing and pulling that stuff out every month--youch. I'd find a woman who liked a hairy chest (just as many women do as don't) and tell the rest to keep to steppin'.
I'm late with this observation, but it's the first thing I thought when I saw this scene... flash back to where Feo tricked Gramps into signing away his money. Did you notice how quick Feo was to hand over a pen from his own pocket, and gave it a look as if it were a "special" pen? And did you notice several grimaces on Gramps' face as he tried to sign that top page but had to press down extra-hard, as if he was having trouble getting the ink to come out? I think that top page was the only one Gramps signed and that the old "carbon paper ploy" came into play, where his signature went through to the bad documents underneath. Uh-huh.
Speaking of Gramps, the sword Excalibur has been added to his List of Toys. And, sadly, his Daddy Warbucks personality has been stricken (for the time being). *sniffle*
When Feo had that pillow over Franco's face, I was squirming and whimpering. I don't think I've EVER hated Mean Mad Feo more than at that moment. The bastid.
Good gawd. That Anselmo looks like someone who just crawled up out of the bowels of hell. *shiver*
Snofia finally does something for Juan (breakfast) rather than the other way around. Hallelujah.
Crabby making out with the pillow Feo left behind had me cracking up so, I almost busted a gut. I wonder if she "got hers." (Sorry. Had to say it.) LOLOLOL
Okay, so Gabi is at the center of the whole Roble-Reyes thing? Jeez gramps how drunk were you back in the day? I mean seriously, no rumors, no side way looks from the locals? An entire family is wiped out and no one has a clue? I mean did the Ma of Pedro even know that the family had been wiped out? (Well the kids did disappear after Ma & Pa were murdered).
Ma & Pa where rich, so did a fog desend down on the entire state of Pueblo and the alien memory erasers came in the night and no one remembers anything?
Haven't watched this for a few days, but as always....enjoy the recaps. (and am amazed at your fortitude, amiga)
Really enjoyed Gabi 'lamenting' over Furd...

I wonder if Pablo/Franco had singing engagements or something which necessitated his being away from the Fuego set for a long time?
I love Gramps.
Anselmo is kind of scary. He could get rid of Feo right now if he wanted to. It's hard to believe that someone who has been betrayed and in prison could be so gullible as to believ Feo's lies.
This was the night that we see Juan and Sofi making love to a pile of dough while Crabi caresses and makes love to her pillow. What's next. No answer from me.
The shining cross is another good example of radioactivity gone astray.
From lower Ala
bbq stephe - I think you're spot on with the pen & carbon copy theory. I can NOT see why Gramps would have signed over power of attorney.
beckster - Thank you. I, too, have been wondering from the first episode why the locals don't know anything about the Robles lands and murders. Ah, well, that is why my telenovela beanie hat is stuck firmly on my head!

I think everyone likes Pedro it is just that his hairy chest is a freak of nature (Kind of like Rosario's boobs. Although hers are not from "nature.")
If Pedro & Rosi get married, would they have kids with large, hairy boobs? (eew. bad mental image.)

I have a funny feeling Anselmo isn't long for this world. Although I would love more than anything to see him whip Feo's butt, I think he's one of those expendable characters who hints of impending doom for our resident devil but meets his own demise before that can happen. Like the drunk woman who took care of Luisito. Unfortunately, I think we're stuck with Feo & Crabi until the end.
Oscar: run like the wind & get the heck out of the Hacienda of Horrors! Sex with Jimena can't compensate for the hellish life with Crabi's iron fist. And Jimena, grow up! Who the heck wants to live with Nazi Mom after they're married?
I like Pedro. He's handsome, he can sing, and I think he realizes the Reyes boys are a few sandwiches short of a picnic. He'll be moving on before we know it but they do owe the viewers a shower scene or two, to make up for the pain of watching this. (of course, I complain but I watch...it's still better than stupid reality shows!)

Smooth chests are for women. Hairy for men. Viva la difference!
LOL @ Jabba the Hut. I was thinking the same thing when Juan And Sofia were making that monstrosity of a dough. Laff.
doris (who has GOT to get off the computer and get to work!!!)
I feel much better now about passing up baked goods for a wholesome twinky
"Abominable breadman"... at first I read that as "abdominal breadman" which is actually pretty close...
Anselmo strikes me as not real bright. Feo's probably manipulated him for years without Anselmo even realizing it.
The timing of Ofelia and later Eva running in to interrupt the Anselmo/Feo reunion was priceless.
It seems that the management of neither the Tumbao nor the Malquerida have ever heard of a karaoke machine. Too bad.
I enjoyed Gabriela's moping very much. Unfortunately it will probably just make her meaner.
10:56, I didn't watch the heart monitor numbers as closely as you, but I did think they seemed flaky. 250?? Wait, could that possibly have something to do with oxygen content in the blood rather than beats per minute? (I have no idea what good oxygen numbers look like.)
It was very convenient for Feo when Tadeo came in but didn't turn the lights on. However, it was also ridiculous. Why leave the lights off when someone's in a coma? Are you afraid you're gonna wake him up??
Juan is growing more "special" every day. I admire EY very much for his ability to say lines that would make a grown man cringe. Lately. the writers have had him say "Like Fire in the Blood" every frickin day. He is starting to go Rainman on us.mhm
Julie you crack me up about turning the lights on in the coma room! But people are like that.
Before my brother passed away, he at one point couldn't keep food down so they had this bag of nutrients that they pumped into him everyday. I was sitting in his room the night before his birthday and the nurse commented, after seeing his date of birth, that they would have to do something special for him the next day. I looked at her and asked what bring a candle in with his bag-o-feed?
People sometimes just don't think and they try to do normal things in abnormal circumstances. Like not turning on the lights to disturb a coma patient! But really how could Padre not see Feo? He's not a little man and its a small room!
And precision is not much of a priority, such as with the heart monitor. How about record-keeping? Why hasn't anyone asked Rosario or Sofia their birthdates? Or looked up the records? As to the boundaries, it would be too easy if they actually had Land Records, or surveyors. Oh, right, I forgot - they don't even have phones (or radios, tv's, heat, air conditioning, electric stoves, washers, dryers, refrigerators), but they do have SUV's, wireless mikes and pyrotechnic displays at the clubs.
It's a wacky world.

Instead of Pelo en la Sangre how about Pelo en la Maza? Eewww! Sorry, but after your comment I couldn't help myself. Hee, hee.
Cheesy novela but endless fun and laughter on the blog. Laughing so much is wonderful therapy - thank you all!

When Pedro smiles, he kind of looks like Oscar. Without the smile, more like Franco and my Mighty Juan.
Yep, Doris--Gramps gave that pen a look like "what's wrong with this thing" before finally getting it to work. And Feo was all "here, here, please use my pen, it's right here, let me be of service." Gramps would die before knowingly giving Feo some kind of power, surely.
LOL @ Connie... Rosario's (assets) not from "nature." LOL!
Don't worry, Dorado Dave, like Juby B said. For every woman who doesn't like man-hair, there is one who does (just that preference thing).I've had both (no pun intended... I think...?) and liked both, 'cause it was the whole package of the man that interested me. You're okay, guy.
Question, 'cause I don't know: If a man does begin shaving his chest, does he get caught up in a cycle where he can't stop because it'll come back in like stubble, which feels WORSE against a woman's skin than the hair might have? Talk about major man-scaping...
I missed Sebastian/Sanctiago on Don Francisco! I forgot to watch! My Eye Candy got away and I am devastated. *POUT!*
Anon 10:56, I think Franco's ridiculous heart spiking was another one of the writers' BRILLIANT attempts at capturing us with the supernatural. As soon as Pure Evil entered his room, Franco's body supposedly sensed the coming doom and went into panic mode. Of course when he was suffocating, his heart began slowing down as if to stop. Gawd, their BRILLIANT supernatural attempts give me heartburn. Although I DO like that dark Angel of Death with serape and scythe walking by every now and then. :-) (But 250 was way too high! Maybe 180-ish, 190-ish or so...)
The actor playing Anselmo reminds me of someone in a past telenovela. Hopefully we'll see more of him tonight, so I can check that out...
Gorilla is just what popped into my mind when the latest Reyes revealed his stuff. He trumped the rest by far!
And anyway, it's a reminder of from whence we came. Besides I happen to LOVE gorillas, even more than most men I know. I can and have watched them for hours, fascinated.
I like Anselmo too, he's definitely hot, and feel very sorry for him and his fate at this point...
Wasn't 'Anselmo' the gay guy in Barrera de Amor? Yes, I think he's an expendable. But he could get to rough up Furd a bit before he goes on to novela heaven or hell...

Unless Death is taking a Holiday, for the scenic view & ummmm good pans.
I think Gramps signed everything..cause Fer stood there watching and it took Gramps forever to finish. He just didn't read it, cause you can trust Fer.

" I think they should change the name of this to Pelo en la Sangre. Maggie" OMgawd, more ROFLOL!
Yes it does seem that Adela Noriega has handed over the crying baton to Eduardo Yanez in this telenovela. We just don't get a break, do we? Maybe all AN's TN contracts require lots of tears and crying, but they don't specify who has to do it.
doris
I'm trying to remember what they were lifting, pouring, dropping over the bread board last night. Makes you want to send them a vat of Purel.
And hundreds of more episodes await us masochists. Thank goodness we can have some fun with it on line.
Maybe the grim reaper was standing around outside the Panaderia to warn people off from the little bread monsters that were being made during Panography 101 class,as demonstrated by our instructors par excellence Sofi y Juanbo.
Anselmo seems to be a nicer fellow underneath than his scary exterior, just got in with a bad crowd. That said, it's funny how Feo has not already done a lot of jail time too.

Beckster: I love it! "Death Takes a Holiday in Cd Serdan." If he only had a tennis racket instead of that scythe-thingy.
Maggie: Rolling-rolling-ROFL at your comment about the deformed little dough-baby. And also "Pelo en la Sangre".
Then Anon 2:14 suggested "Pelo en la Masa".
How about "Masa en la Sangre"? (As in, those boys have dough in their blood).
Just an idea.
"Creemelo"
Look near the top of the K's fine recap, it's about the 6th paragraph down. After several minutes of pushing a pillow over Franco's face, the attempted murder by Fernando was interrupted by the good Padre, who wandered in to pray.
