Caray, Caray!

This week’s experiment – writing the recap from the YouTube videos. No captions, so it’s a real test. The plus is that I can get it done sooner.

Sara goes ALL the way to the lesser house to say “forget about me forever.” This reminds me of people on internet message boards who go to such lengths to post messages stating that they are ‘never posting here again’.

Julian is delivering food, the woman he is giving it to recognizes him and he tells himself over and over that he’ll keep his cool. Instead the woman brings a prettier, younger woman outside to see him. I think she was on the quiz show, she looks professional. The ladies eye him like a piece of meat and the younger one invites him to a casting for sportswear models, she thinks he’s good for it. Imagine how jealous Rosy will be now!

Arturo tells Jackie he has a plan to import vitamins or something from another country to help the company make money. Talk of money gets her horny. Blech.

Paula is trying to find another movie to snare Raimundo with, when Greta shows up, crowing about being the happiest woman in the world. Last night she was with Rai! Paula remembers Rai bailing on her with an ‘emergency’ the night before, now she knows he left to go see Greta. She is upset, of course, and tells Greta to get the hell out of her house. For once I agree that Paula has a reason to be upset.

Meanwhile, Rai brags to Chef Ern about how he went out with both ladies the night before. Ern of all people (Rai also thinks he’s the last one who should be saying this) warns him against two ladies at the same time. If only Rai knew the storm Paula is sure to bring down on him. Nice knowing you, Rai.

Paula finds Toribio in the park and spills her story to him. I’m getting the impression now that Greta made it sound like she and Raimundo hit the sheets, while Raimundo told Ern that nothing like that happened. I think what Rai told Ern is closer to the truth. Anyway, Toribio tells her that really she should only be mad with Rai for seeing more than one girl, not with Greta who didn’t even know Paula was out with him. Toribio’s new girlfriend shows up and is introduced to Paula. There is some little joke that they all laugh at but I didn’t understand it.

Bettina and her friend talk, Bettina gripes about this dude who is blowing her off. Who should come along, but said dude. Bettina stands up to talk to him, but he walks away. Bettina runs off upset and the friend calls the dude over. She asks him what’s the deal, if you won’t talk to her tell me and I’LL tell her. He just gives her his basketball and runs off after Bettina.

It’s junior high school time again, Sara thanks Alonso for ‘always believing in her’ (I think he is just doing whatever he can to avoid her tantrums) and when she sees Lorena approaching, she starts deep tongue kissing Alonso, which looks gross. Lorena rolls her eyes and continues her conversation on her cell phone with one of the nuns from the orphanage, who says Sara’s new boyfriend looks a lot like Lorena’s boyfriend. Lorena says it’s him, I’ll tell you about it tomorrow. There is also some talk about the documents. She walks past the 8^th graders making out under the bleachers with her head held high into the school. These two are making out for a solid minute. Who does that in public after age 15? I mean really? I have kissed my wife plenty of times in public but we never stand in front of the door of a busy building and make out like we’re getting ready for sex. Give me a break.

Dude catches up to Bettina, who tells him to take off. In ten seconds they both say they acted stupid and Dude wants to be friends. I didn’t think that was what either of them wanted, but who knows what 12 year olds think.

Some uber-hottie shows up at the restaurant and asks if it is Ern’s place, Monica comes up and says no it’s not his, he’s just a cook here. Hottie says cook? No way lady – he’s one of the best chefs in Mexico. Back and forth, Monica putting him down, Hottie eventually saying he’s so awesome in bed. I wonder why all his exes feel the need to tell the world about having sex with him? I’d think it would make him feel like a piece of meat except, well, he has an army of totally hot women telling everyone how great he is in bed. I guess that would make things easier for him. Anyway, Monica tells Hottie that Ern isn’t there and Hottie leaves. No don’t leave! Come back and model swimwear! Damn. The hostess lady who surprised Julian the other day asks Monica why she said Ern wasn’t there, Monica says something but really it’s just because she’s a bitch. Hostess lady says but what if he really is so great in bed? Monica says she doesn’t care. Whatever. Hostess lady must be one of you ladies here, because she says it wouldn’t bother her one bit to find out if it’s true.

When they leave, Rosy pokes her head out and sees that the coast is clear of Hurricane Monica. Julian is there and she surely doesn’t want to get yelled at. Julian says he got a job, she’s happy, then he says it’s modeling, she’s not happy. He says he’ll skip it if she doesn’t agree, she’s not happy about ladies recognizing him all the time again. Finally she says it’s ok, but she’s going with him. I was going to ask what’s the deal with women being this jealous but I realized the comments thread might devolve, depending on who has been cheated on, so I’ll let it be. Let me just say that this goes both ways, before any man-bashing begins. Let’s move on.

Dude is named Ivan – now I remember (uh and someone said his name). He was at Bettina’s house, I guess Paula is being nicer, he leaves and says they’ll chat online later. Paula says you like that boy, right? Bettina says yes, is she allowed to have a boyfriend? Paula says I guess times change. Bettina wants to know how many boyfriends Paula had, she says Dario was the first and only and they got together when she was much older than Bettina is now. Cheer up mom, you’re young and you have Raimundo. Nope, he’s just a friend. Bettina continues to try and cheer up Paula, who as usual has managed to make the conversation about her, not whatever it started as.

Rosy cries like a spoiled little brat, this does not reflect well on her, wanting to leave work to go with Julian. Monica tells her no, you have to work, your personal stuff isn’t my problem. I agree with her (if not her manner), restaurants can’t function when short-staffed. I have worked in all levels of restaurant, from dishwasher to management, so I guess on this one I side with Monica, though she doesn’t have to be such a bitch about it. Then of course Rai comes in, immediately blames Monica for whatever is going on, and tells Rosy to go ahead and go. I want to see what he’s going to do when the restaurant is full and he only has one waitress, but I guess that’s on him. Monica goes off on him, he always goes against her, she should have never come back to work here. Ern overhears the whole thing, now he’s going to be sympathetic towards her, sorry everyone I think this marks the beginning of Ern and Monica, sittin’ in a tree… She says that when her mom died Rai sent her away, he says to get an education, but she says he doesn’t show her any love or loyalty. She tells him she hates him. Ern shakes his head and goes back to the kitchen. I’m sure now he’s going to be nice to her or something and win her over. I’m not happy about that either, I’m not in love with him like you ladies are, but anybody but Alonslow would be better for Lorena, he’s such a loser. Especially for being a good/nice doctor, he’s STILL a complete loser. That’s not easy to do.

Pretty lady who hired Julian takes pictures of him, Rosy is unreasonably jealous. Ugh. How ugly. Julian knows her, because right away he says if she has a problem, they can go. She says no, that Rosy is gone (she hopes). Well, I give her points for trying. He wants her to wish for luck that whoever the boss is likes his pictures, she crosses her fingers but thinks that she hopes they DON’T. How selfish.

Raimundo comes out of a theater and makes a phone call, leaving a voicemail saying he can’t believe she missed the date, he missed her. I assume it was Paula, she must have stood him up and isn’t taking his calls.

Back at the restaurant (did Rosy just need to come to work a few minutes late? I might change my mind from earlier if so) Rosy tells Lorena all about the pretty lady and Julian’s photo shoot. Lorena, being sensible, tells her she better get over it. Lorena stops by the kitchen on her way out, looking for her bag. Of course Chef Ern is there and wants to plead his case for her again. He says he can’t pretend to just be her friend and see her every day. Lorena says she can’t just be his lover, she knows how he is and he won’t ever change. She leaves, he eyes the junk in her trunk sway out, then says to the empty room how she’s wrong, he can change for her.

Rosy sees Lorena and asks what’s wrong, she tells her about her conversation with Ern.

Ern runs into Monica on HIS way out. Suddenly she’s nice to him and invites him to have a glass of wine. He admits overhearing earlier and suddenly she is normal and smiling at him. No way are we supposed to believe she is the same person. Ha ha ha oh they are laughing and talking. She says she’d be nicer if her father had more faith in her and she really does think his food is good. He cheers her up. He hopes after tonight she thinks better of him. She jumps him and they start making out. SORRY ladies! But you all knew it was coming. Not this soon though, I wasn’t expecting it.

Paula gets Rai’s voicemail and fusses about him. The doorbell rings and it’s Dario. Right away he sees she’s upset and comforts her. She thinks that the truth would make him tease her, so she says she’s upset that Bettina wants a boyfriend. He tries, but she just cries harder. I think she just doesn’t want him to stop holding her. She asks him to stay, unless his woman has a problem with it. Dario rolls his eyes and says she’s busy with her interminable work -

Which consists of grossing us all out, as her work appears to be about having sex with Arturo. They must be at a hotel or something, they aren’t doing it on a desk this time. Or maybe at her house – Art says he has to go before Dario comes home. Is that what he said? He said later he’ll get an apartment for them to meet at. This guy (well Jackie too to be fair) is shameless.

Lots of making out, Chef Ern and Monica are still going at it. Extremely fake looking kissing.

The next morning, Lorena is making muffins to apologize to Ern for being rude. Rosy teases her. Lorena pleads innocence. Lorena is excited when talking to Maruja, hoping the nuns know something about her family.

Sara is in bed with Chalo, pretending to like him while thinking nasty thoughts about him. He wants her to stay, she has an excuse not to, as always. They play a game of “do you love me?” Chalo wins.

Ern wakes up in bed, oooops looks like he did the deed! He’s not happy with himself.

Florencia seems to be getting worse and worries, Alonso tries to comfort her. He says they will fight the illness together!

Ern starts the whole “hey we’re adults, we were lonely, the wine….” conversation. He says these things happen. She says yeah to YOU these things happen. He doesn’t beat around the bush, he tells her it was a mistake and he just wants to be friends. Wait – you can say that AFTER sexing somebody up? Maybe when you look like Ern, not for the rest of us normal humans. She seems disappointed but doesn’t argue with him. She wasn’t asking him to marry her. I think she was hoping for more sex at least.

Sara tells Chalo to wait and then leave after her, he wants her to give him her car, she says just use your motorbike.

Ern got away with it, but he won’t shut up and keeps trying to explain about the wine, etc. He says see ya later, she seems to be expecting a kiss, he waves like a little kid. She doesn’t hide her disgust as she leaves, he yells at himself for a bit.

Dario and Jackie yell at each other about getting home late, then about Bettina having/not having a boyfriend. They are a disaster. Jackie manages to make a crack about Paula in the process and Dario defends her. When Dario leaves, she immediately gets out her phone to make a call.

Arturo eats with his horrible mom, then his hot wife Valeria comes down and his phone rings, it’s Jackie of course. She says she’s at home, ALONE. Arturo takes the bait and immediately says he has to leave. Valeria doesn’t look happy. She is wearing a very nice red outfit. Now that they have let Paula explore her hotness – it’s time for Valeria to get a job modeling with Julian or something. Quit keeping her wrapped up in a lab coat. Valeria gets a call on the house phone, it’s from the school and they need Val and Art to come to a conference or something. Horrible mom says no just YOU go, he’s so busy at work etc etc. Val says no, we both have to go.

Vasco is excited that the nuns are coming to help share Jaime’s guilt with Hortensia. Jaime doesn’t care, he’s guilty, whatever.

Barbara talks to a lawyer about getting divorced. The lawyer is asking about Jaime’s money and salary, Barb says it all belongs to his mother. He says ok then, your divorce goal is freedom. She says no, she wants money! Ugh this woman. Lawyer says good luck, if he doesn’t have any money don’t know where you’re going to get it. Barb is disappointed.

Art yells at Jackie for calling him at home, they get to ‘business’. He’s a little bit nervous about being at her house like this, she tells him to shut up.

At the restaurant, Lorena shows up with her apology muffins. She wants to be friends. She thinks he is acting strange, is he confused? He says uh yeah…. She says friends, let’s shake on it. He eats a muffin when Lorena leaves. Monica comes in and says she can pardon a lot, but not him saying last night was a mistake.

Barbara is chasing Arturo around the offices, Valeria is sitting in his office and he is quite surprised. She wants to know why he didn’t answer the phone and he makes some lame excuse. Just then Jackie busts in saying “we need to talk” just like Barbara did. Ooops the wife is here.

Some kid is waiting outside clinic #23 to find out what’s up with Florencia, without verifying at all who is he, Alonso tells him everything about Flo’s condition. Way to stay confidential, doc. The kid’s name is Sergio and he appears to be Flo’s boyfriend or something, though he stammers out that they are friends. He’s upset at the news.

Arturo says he has to leave and go with his wife, Barbara actually has the nerve to say right in front of her that company business is more important. Finally Art says he’ll be down in the car in two minutes. Then Barbara tries to make Jackie leave, she finally does. Then Barbara goes even further – she actually pouts and complains that he considers his wife more important than her. Uh duh? I know he’s a slimeball and everything but what does she expect? Jeez. He tells her to shut up. She’s upset that she can’t get rich by getting divorced and tries to kiss up on him. Right here in the office. And he KISSES her back! Jackie spies on the whole thing. Art tells Barb no, it’s over. Barbara gets all weepy and crying, it’s pitiful. Jackie continues to watch through the crack in the door.

Bruno is looking at a new apartment, Mr. Big Shot says “yeah it all looks great” and doesn’t care about the price.

Jackie’s phone rings, it’s Dario complaining about something domestic. She hangs up, but then pretends to be on the phone with him all lovey when Art can overhear. He drags her into the office to talk. He tells her it’s over with him and Barb and actually manages to talk his way out of it! They start kissing and he leaves. Jeez this guy, wtf. Jackie is all hot and bothered after he leaves.

Lorena brings the short nun home to Maruja’s house. She tells her how awesome Rosy and Maruja are and how disillusioned she is with Sara. The nun can’t believe it either. She serves the nun some coffee and muffins. The nun gets serious and says she knows who her parents are. Lorena wants to know, no matter if they are poor or not. The nun shows her a paper to read herself. It says she was found in a garbage can. I guess we’re supposed to feel bad for her, but not for Sara, who really WAS found that way. I guess it’s ok because Sara is a bitch. I guess.

Ok so that was the great YouTube experiment. It went ok I guess, total recapping time about 2 hours, that’s just as good or better than watching and then typing or whatever. I might do this again.
