Monday September 15, Episode # 60, Querida: It’s a naco!... no! it’s a gandalla!...no ! It’s Super Chalo to the rescue!!!

HI everybody this is your substitute recapper. I missed the beginning of the show I’m sorry, but I’m sure it wasn’t much (I hope!). Here is for your enjoyment … Querida Enemiga episode # 60. Enjoy!

We now have the opening scene thanks to Julie.

Ivan is telling Gladys what a lousy dad Ernesto is, and what a womanizer he is. As if to prove his point, Monica shows up and Ivan identifies her as another girlfriend. He says there's that one, and then there's the "Guerita pesada" petulant blondie. There is more bickering and Gladys says she'll fight for custody and she leaves. Ivan says he wants to live with Gladys and also leaves.Monica asks Ern if Lorena is the "other one," the blonde Ivan mentioned. Ernie says Lorena's not the OTHER one, she's the ONLY one, and he and Monica are NOTHING, not even friends. Ouch!

Paula has called to an emergency meeting of the club of divorcees. She tells them that she wants to plan a good bye party for Valeria, she is moving to Cabo. They wonder about the kids, they are going to miss their father, and their father is going to miss them. Maruja says that Ickturo brought it on himself.

Alonslow is saying good bye to Valeria. He tells her that he is going to miss her. Valeria tells him that she is going to miss him and all of her friends too. Alonslow tells her not to be sad maybe she’ll find a good man over there. She smiles and tells him that she wishes he can also find a good woman. They promise to each other that they will e-mail and chat.

Paula tells the girls that their party will be a happy one. Greta wonders if maybe Valeria made it easy for Ickturo to go out with women. Paula points out that he did it when he was married. Greta changes the conversation and asks about Dario, she tells her not to take long in deciding or else she is going to lose him again. Maruja tells Greta that Paula doesn’t have to worry about being alone, she still has Raymundo.
Speaking of the devil, Raymundo and Ernesto are talking. Ernesto tells him that he is ready to come back. Raymundo wants to make sure he is really ready to come back and asks him who is staying with the kids. Ernesto tells him that he has made arrangements; however he is worried about his sister in law, Gladis. She told him that she wants the kids and will fight for them. Ray tells him not to worry, the kids are happy with him. Ernesto also tells him that Lorena is his girlfriend now, and that this relationship won’t interfere with his job. Ray tells him that he knows he can trust him because he is a pro.

Monica finds Ivan in the street. He asks her if she was following him. She tells him that she followed him that whole day and now she knows that he is not going to school. Monica tells him that she’ll keep his secret, but she needs to talk to him in private. She asks him to get in the car, but Ivan is not interested, whatever she wants to say, she can say it right there. In short Monica wants Ivan to help makes Lorena and Ernesto’s life a living hell. Ivan is not interested, and tells her not to bother trying to black mail him, if she wants to go and tell his uncle, he doesn’t care.

Amelia aka black widow is on the phone talking to a friend. She asks for money, but it seems that the friend knows her very well because she refuses to lend her the money. She is sad because she wants to return the money to Toribio. She thinks audibly that she’ll have to take drastic measures to get the money. We are left to wonder what she would regard as a “drastic measure”.

Toribio is still at Paula’s and he is calling his old patients to see if they need help or maybe they’ll know somebody that needs help. He wants to work because he doesn’t like to live out of her daughter charity and he needs to distract himself to forget Amalia because she broke his heart.

Valeria the kids the mother in law from hell (MLFH for short), are at a park to say their final good byes. Valeria tells Ickturo that they will be waiting for him in December. He tells her that he’ll be there. MLH tries to make her feel bad for the last time, but Valeria has the last word when she tells Ickturo that she hopes he can find somebody to love him, but he is going to have to ditch his mother if he wants to be happy.

Vasco talks to Jacky. He tells her that he doesn’t trust Sara and need her help. He needs her to observe and find out everything that she can of Sara.

Chalo asks barb if he looks better now. She smells him and looks at him appreciatively and tells him that he looks much better but he needs to change also his language. Chalo asks for a permit to go visit a pretend girlfriend. Barb acts right away and tells him that he can’t do personal things during work hours. She has something else in mind for him. She tells him to have the car ready because she is going out.

Greta is talking to the crazy lady (sorry guys I don’t know her name), the one that rented Jaime a room. She is reading her the cards, and tells her that she sees a rich man in her future. Jaime enters. The lady tells her that Maruja brought him. She also wonders if maybe this is the guy that the cards are talking about. She tries to convince Greta to go for it, but after the Ray debacle, she is a little more careful picking up her targets. She is nervous and tells crazy Lady to stop giving her ideas.

Barbara idea was to have Chalo follow her in the car while she runs. Chalo laughs because his plan worked.

Lorena is leaving and forgot her umbrella. She is about to go back when ALonslow shows up. He wants an explanation about Chalo (Ed comment; what the @#$%$#@%^& is he thinking?!!). Lorena, along with all of us that are convinced that Ernesto is a better choice, points out that it is too late. Alonslow pleads; He wants her to tell him what was between her and Chalo. Lorena tells him that when she wanted to tell him he didn’t give her a chance. She asks him if Sara knows that he is there. He tells her that they broke up, because Alonslow always loved Lorena and it was a waste effort to try to forget her. Lorena tells him that it is a wasted effort to try and go back to their relationship –You are not the right man for me. Alonslow asks her if Ernesto is the man for her. Lorena tells him that yes, Ernesto is more mature and he would have let Lorena explain. Alonslo pleads some more, we hear thunder in the background

Sara arrives to the hospital looking for Alonslow, but finds Bruno. She is sarcastic and mean when asking for ALonslow. She tells him that he needs him because he is her grandma’s Doctor, and is time for her check up. Bruno offers his services as a Doctor to do the check up, but Sara refuses and tells him to tell Alonslow that she came.

In the mean time Alonslow is still with Lorena. The rain is now pouring and he tells her that it is just like the first day they met. He hugs her, but Lorena pushes him back and tells him to let her go. She is really mad and lets him have it. ALonslow recognizes that he failed her. She tells him that he failed both of them, but the worst part was to get tangled with Sara, why did he had to that?. She tells him good bye and goes back inside the house. Once inside, she tells to herself that Alonslow is not going to make her doubt her feelings for Ernesto, she is really over Alonslow.

Maruja is talking to Zulema. She is eating like there is no tomorrow. She adds a lot of syrup to her pancakes, and tells Maruja that there is no need for her to diet if nobody cares. Maruja can just stare.

Omar is at his desk thinking about his little problem, when a delivery arrives. It is for his boss and it is conveniently wrapped in a see thru bag. Invading his boss’s privacy he reads the label and realizes that it is medication for erectile dysfunction. He is surprised to find out that (to borrow Ferro’s expression) his boss’s little soldier can’t salute. His boss walks in and he gives him the pills, but we can see that the power balance has been switched. Omar is happy but his boss looks embarrassed.

Lorena leaves the house after changing. Alonsow is in full stalker mode, he is sitting in his car waiting for her. He sees her leave and thinks out loud how stupid he was for letting her go.

Betina is at her computer. Toribio tells her to stop thinking on Ivan, Betina tells him that it is not that simple, and asks him to stop thinking on Amanda. Toribio tells her that he wasn’t in love with her ant to stop bothering him.
Bruno is reading some papers (I think that it is Hortencia’s medical record) he is very mad and can believe Hortensia had the bad taste of falling from the stairs. He is wondering who is going to give him the rest of his money, when Diana enters. She tells him that she came by to show him the stroller she wants to buy for the baby. He explodes when he sees the price and yells at her that they can’t afford it, Diana tells him that they can buy it in payments. (?) (Me wonders what kind of stroller is this that is so expensive, that you have to make payments, maybe is this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gimqwLrRM64 ) He gets really out of shape and yells at her that what part of they can’t afford it she didn’t understand. She yells back at him that she’ll buy it with her own money. Bruno tells her to stop yelling, she tells him that he started it.

Lorena and Maruja are at the kitchen of great food when Ernesto and Ray arrive. Ernesto tells everybody that he is ready to come back and thanks them for maintaining the kitchen running when he was indispoused. Lorena hugs him and calls him my love. The other cooks look impactados. Ernesto tells them that he and Lorena are an item now, but that won’t interfere with work.

Amalia comes to Alonslow’ and gives him some of the money. She tries to spin a sob story on how she had to take her things to a pawn shop, but Alonslow being the cold hearted guy that we know him to be, is not interested. Amalia tells him that she understand that he is still upset at her, but she wants to show him that she really loves Toribio, and doesn’t want to harm him. Alonslow tells her that it is too late for that.

Party time! They club of divorcees goes to Marujas house Valeria tells them that she is going to miss them all, they tell her not to be sad because tonight they celebrate!

Zulema keeps on eating she thinks that she is going to get fatter but she doesn’t care because her life is a total disaster; her husband is having an affair, her daughter is married and gone and her little one will get married any day now.

The club is celebrating they are cheering and drinking. Maruja says she drinks to Valeria and wishes that valeria has a good life. Greta drinks to Valeria too and wishes that she finds a good man and enjoys him. Paula drinks to Valeria’s happiness. Valeria drinks to her children and their happiness. After the drinks they dance and Paula says that she should have celebrated her divorce the same way. Greta tells Valeria that she should open a clinic to help women recover their self esteem after a divorce. They all drink to that.

Bruno arrives to his house. He looks repented, and asks Diana to please forgive him because he is very tense. He brought them (Diana and Baby a gift) Diana opens the bag and it is a book of baby names. Bruno is very sweet and tells her that he is always thinking on his baby. They start looking at names.

Zulema’s participation in this whole episode can be resumed in one word EATING, because that ‘s what she did during the whole hour. Rosi arrives and wants to go to Julian’s room, but Zulema doesn’t let her because Julian has a surprise. Julian comes out and takes her to his room.

This is a very funny segment. Omar arrives to a pharmacy and asks for the blue pills that help with men problems. The pharmacist tells him that medications are bought by name not by color, and tells him that as far as she knows there are no pills that help with alcoholism, laziness and poverty (you know men’s problems?) Omar is very nervous and tells her that he is not talking about those problems, he wants those pills that help a man when he wants to have relations with a women but can’t. The pharmacist then yells –ahhhh, you want pills to help you with an erectile dysfunction. If that’s what you want, you have to say it with its entire letters ERECTILE DYSFUCTION. By now a bunch of people is waiting in line and are listening to the whole conversation. She then asks for his prescription. Omar doesn’t have one and the Lady tells him that he needs a prescription –What if because you are self-medicating you have a heart attack in the middle of having sex? These are no vitamins you know? Poor Omar, by now he is redder than a tomato.

Julian blindfolded Rosi and took her to his room. He shows her two big pictures of herself. She looks very nice. Rosi can hardly recognize herself. Julian tells her that he wants to see her every day but not in a photo, he wants her with him forever… would she marry him? Rosi squeals and jumps to his arms saying yes.

Diana goes to work and sees Vasco. He asks her how her trip was. She tells him that fine. To make the story short, he is still in love with her.

Bruno brought a report to Alonslow. He tells him that Sara came by because of the check up for Grandma. Alonslow tells him that he knows but he is very busy. Bruno offers to go in his stead. Alonslow thanks him for his help. As Bruno is leaving, he turns and apologizes to Alonslow about his behavior when he found out that he had been demoted. He leaves

Barbara has been running all this time and Chalo has been following. A couple of nacos try to bother barb. Chalo goes to her defense and between Barb and him kick the nacos’ butts.

Ernesto is sitting at a coffee shop. Lorena arrives and asks if he has been waiting for a long time. He tells her that he woke up early and was waiting for her. He is happy because everything is working out better. He woke up on time and made breakfast and lunch for the kids, he took them to school and since he didn’t have to hurry he is in a good mood. His phone rings and it is the principal from Ivan’s school. She wants to talk to him. Bye, bye happy mood. Lorena wants to go with him. They leave.

The club of divorcees is saying its final good bye to Valera. Greta is crying, and Maruja scolds her, because she is going to make Valeria cry. They do a group hug and promise Valeria that they’ll go to visit her. Valeria hops in a taxi and leaves.

Betina is at her computer. She is frustrated and she doesn’t know what else to do. She has an idea; she asks Toribio to go out and help her find out what happened to Ivan.

Ernesto is very mad, he has been informed that Ivan hasn’t been showing at school. Lorena tries to calm him down, but he is at his wit’s end, he doesn’t know how to handle him. He wonders where is Ivan.

We see a shot of Ivan playing pool.

Bruno went to do Hortensia’s check up. He sends the nurse away and insults Hortensia. –Stupid old lady who is going to pay me? You better find a way to pay or I’ll send Diana straight to Vasco’s arms if only to know that you’ll be churning in your grave, but why do I tell you this things? You can’t even hear me, you are a vegetable. Right in cue, Hortensia opens up her eyes, but Bruno can’t see it because he turned away.
The End

Hmmm...Monica really is a stalker, first Ern and now Ivan.

Good for Valeria for telling off her MLFH! By the way, whoever said Val and look good together was right, they do.

Maricruz, I like your editorial comment on WTF was Al thinking when he showed up at Lor's place. What an ass! Oh, and he expects to be forgiven but then later won't forgive Amalia. This guy has a long way to go before redemption.

Funny paragraph on the power shift at Omar's work, and yes, the pharmacy scene was the funniest of the whole episode.

Ha ha! Great youtube link!!! Where in the heck did you find that?

OK, I have to say that Chalo is an impressive fighter. I guess his naco background came in handy when fighting those two BIG bullies. He didn't hesitate for a second. I think he's pretty much clinched the deal with Barb. What a dumb job, following her in the car with her water while she jogged. It's perfect for him.

Thanks Maricruz, that was an awesome recap, hilarious and insightful!
 

Did anyone hear me scream when Snorty's eyes widened? All that time when the nurse was sweet-talking her, I wondered if it wouldn't be more effective to speak to Snorty in her own language...

I like how Chalo bumped the first guy with his head. I knew that noggin had to be good for something!

So far, Diana shows no sign of wising up to Bruno. Too bad.
 

Oh, the opening scene, as I recall:

Ivan is telling Gladys what a lousy dad Ernesto is, and what a womanizer he is. As if to prove his point, Monica shows up and Ivan identifies her as another girlfriend. He says there's that one, and then there's the fat blonde (or words to that effect.) There is more bickering and Gladys says she'll fight for custody and she leaves. Ivan says he wants to live with Gladys and also leaves.

Monica asks Ern if Lorena is the "other one," the fat blonde Ivan mentioned. Ernie says Lorena's not the OTHER one, she's the ONLY one, and he and Monica are NOTHING, not even friends. Ouch!

I think that's all?
 

Thank you Sylvia and Julie, as always you are very kind. I found the stroller video, because sometimes I forget the name in English of the most simple things, like carreola (stroller) so I googled Carreola and this video came up. After watching twice and making sure it was fake I put the link up.
Thank you Julie for the opening scene, I have added it to the post. I changed the “fat blond” for “petulant Blondie”. I don't know why but "pesada" is referring to Lorena's blood you know? Somebody not very likeable, I think it has to do with the famous "me cae gordo" comment that means “I don’t like him.
 

Oh, like "tiresome." I wondered how someone could call Lorena fat!
 

There really are a lot of stalkers on this show. In this espisode we had Alonslow and Monica (I wonder if THEY will ever get together, we seem to have just about every other combination!). We've also had Paula, Chalo and Sara watching from cars or behind trees in past episodes. There are probably some others I didn't remember.

I still can't get over how dumb Omar is. Doesn't he watch TV to know about viagra, or cialis, or whatever? And of course he and Zulema, this supposedly warm, close couple, are both too hung up to even talk about their problem??!
 

Maricruz: I started laughing out loud at work when I read your title. And, the recap was even better. Julie, "I wondered if it wouldn't be more effective to speak to Snorty in her own language..." Very insightful and absolutely true! I guess words regarding her beloved Vasco were enough to wake her. On another note, Ivan seems to really be hurting - he is shying away from friends as well as family. Hopefully, Ernesto (with Lorena's help) can get him back on track. I liked Monica initially, now I think she is only a watered down, "lite" (one of my favorite expressions)version of Sara. Strong enough to leave a bad taste in your mouth but not foul enough to be quite on the subpar level of Sara. Wonder what Sara will try next. We know she won't take Alonso's rebuff lying down (so to speak). Diana in MA
 

LOL! I love your description of "Lite"!
 

Thanks Maricruz for a funny recap!

"Super Chalo to the rescue" great title! Our own "naco" is getting refinement, scoring points in the "battle' - soon we will get to the hot scene - pronto, muy pronto!

I like that our spoiled brat Ivan didn't give in to the Monica - hey, this kid has a decent soul, he probably just need the therapy ( may be with Torbio) before it's too late!

Lore was great when she shut 'Slow down - especially when she mentioned the he took it with her best friend! Please, let it be the end of "Lore-Alonslow" combo, please pretty, please!

I didn't like the meeting Vasco with Diana - something didn't feel right, I don't know.
 

Maricruz, awesome recap and what a diverting title! Thanks for filling in and thanks for the great recap!

“he and Monica are NOTHING, not even friends. Ouch!” LOL! Ouch is right—I bet those words come back to haunt him. I hope it doesn’t mean he’s for Monica, though.

“In short Monica wants Ivan to help makes Lorena and Ernesto’s life a living hell. Ivan is not interested, and tells her not to bother trying to black mail him, if she wants to go and tell his uncle, he doesn’t care.” THIS was interesting. Could it be that he doesn’t really want to leave his uncle, he wants to see how much his uncle loves him by how much his uncle will fight to keep them? If that’s the case, he wouldn’t want Monica interfering.

“We are left to wonder what she would regard as a “drastic measure”.” LOL! Seems like she’s too old to go dance in a strip club (like Karla on Guapos) or anything like that.

“Valeria the kids the mother in law from hell (MLFH for short)” LOL! That woman is a pain in the okole, all right. I am so glad I never had one like her in all three of the mothers-in-law I had. I adored it when Val told Ickturo he’d have to ditch his Mami to be happy.

“Greta is talking to the crazy lady (sorry guys I don’t know her name)” Conchita, the wacky landlady.

“He wants an explanation about Chalo (Ed comment; what the @#$%$#@%^& is he thinking?!!)” ROTFL!!!! Good question!

“Lorena tells him that it is a wasted effort to try and go back to their relationship –You are not the right man for me. Alonslow asks her if Ernesto is the man for her. Lorena tells him that yes, Ernesto is more mature and he would have let Lorena explain.” Hooray, Lorena! Now all you have to do is stick to your guns when Alonslow comes around.

“Omar is at his desk thinking about his little problem, when a delivery arrives. It is for his boss and it is conveniently wrapped in a see thru bag” ROTFLLLLL!!! I thought that was so hysterical! Nothing like privacy of information in prescriptions. Deliver it to the wrong person, with the labels showing.

“but we can see that the power balance has been switched. Omar is happy but his boss looks embarrassed.” Maybe Omar will be lucky and the boss will spend lots of time with him, teaching him how to use the computer, etc.

“She yells back at him that she’ll buy it with her own money. Bruno tells her to stop yelling, she tells him that he started it.” At least she yelled back so he didn’t walk all over her this time and make her cry.

“Lorena hugs him and calls him my love. The other cooks look impactados. Ernesto tells them that he and Lorena are an item now, but that won’t interfere with work.” Probably best that it’s all out in the open right away—at least there won’t be that gossip interfering with work.

“This is a very funny segment. Omar arrives to a pharmacy and asks for the blue pills that help with men problems.” It sure was! I loved Omar’s expressions through this one. He is soooo naïve.

“Chalo goes to her defense and between Barb and him kick the nacos’ butts.” (chuckle) He did a great job, is Barb’s hero forever, and he kicked a little more than just their butts. He’s got points with Barb forever here.

“Right in cue, Hortensia opens up her eyes, but Bruno can’t see it because he turned away.” I wondered how soon we were going to get some reaction out of Snortensia. Guess it’s no surprise it was Vasco going back with Diana that got her attention.

I sometimes translate "pesado" as pesky. Depends on the context.

Loved reading all the comments, friends!

Jeanne
 

Hombre, do you REALLY think that they show Viagra commercials in Mexico?

Jeanne
 

Diana in MA, I love your take on Monica--Sara Lite. Perfect.
 

I'm very late chiming in, but thank you so much for writing this excellent recap for me! I really do appreciate it a ton. You should find a regular spot on some show, you do a great job.
 

OMG!!!! That carriage video is hysterical!!!!! Lovely addition Maricruz....
