Fuego 10-02 "The Babe is Biden her Time & Sarita is a Painlen in the Ass"
The title in no way, shape or form refers to any living or dead person.
We rehash Franco crying into the pan, as what with all the recent events, the mortgage, the lack of funds and most especially the depleted store of Juan’s sweating salt, well someone has to add the missing ingredient. Franco hears the whinnying of Capricho, I don’t speak Spanish, but I am the horse whisperer.
Capricho is all shades of happy, that he is kicking up his heels and visiting the ladies, life is good without 210lbs. of stupid on his back.
Now we see a rehash of “Burning the Witch at the Stake”, this seems a bit strange as none of the milling extras are wearing shoes with big silver buckles and the diaper wearing Shaman isn’t going by the name, Reverend GoodSoul and no Indian woman named “Charity Goodbody” has cast a stone, we see the moon turn ewwww Blood Red, the clouds turn purple, the wind blows. Juan wanders out of the foliage, he is all bloody, nasty, dirty , grunting and spots one of the locals eating a mango. The native version of popcorn at a Chuckie Movie. Juan reaches for it, but alas falls to the ground, this is a good thing as his hands looked rather dirty and that would be unsanitary.
Now let’s go on over to the Brigadoom version of Mt. Sinai. Rigo’s Ma and Brother are nervously waiting the lab results of the tumor diagnosis. In a fit of bad acting and extreme drama; the doctor drags the drama out, just like Monty Hall used to do before the prize behind door number 3 was revealed. It’s benign..the tumor is benign, thank gawd they went for the whole enchilada and didn’t take the Microwave, flatscreen, fireplace implements and just leave. Okay so, Ma & Bro are thrilled.
For some reason the appearance of the swamp monster has gotten babe doctor a stay of execution. We see Babe and Silvester leaning over the moaning, groaning and now several days of beard growth Juan. Babe tell Silvester that she has to strip Juan down and clean him up. Silvester is horrified that Babe Doctor would strip Juan down, but Babe says after all she is a doctor. She sends Silvester to go get some water. She pulls down Juan’s Pants and EGADS he is wearing Oscar’s missing bikinis. No wonder Oscar is in such hawt pursuit. We know this is important crap cause we see several frontal scenes of Juan from his chest to his knees, in color, in black and white, now color , now black and white. OMG it was like watching a Fellini film. So tasteful, so adding to the story line and in no way just cheap exploitation..Juan has a fever and is tossing, turning screaming out the name Libia, my lil sister, Mi Nina, Mi Nina..moan, groan. Babe Doctor is taking Juan’s temp, yes with a thermometer. Calm down people, under his arm. She is left to ponder, ummmm, he has a sister, does he have another mujer?
I know I would be so happy if I was in an emergency room, with a gun-shot wound to the head, an eye swollen shut, and a huge chaw of dip in my cheek, and the doctor was giggling and wondering if I was married.
Meanwhile, Oscar is still searching for his missing brother. Suddenly he reaches for his torch and starts combing the brush. When I am looking for something, I usually wait until midnight, get a flashlight and go in search. Oscar, comes across a dead fire and a spit. Oscar gleefully exclaims it is Juan’s. Yes, it is a roasted Mango.
Sofie, Sarita & Jimena are sitting around chatting. I guess, the two chatty sisters, Slowfia & Sarita just won’t let Jimena get a word in edgewise. Jimena is tired of the same conversation and refuses to engage in the Reyes slamming. She literally stares off in space. Sofie expresses “Oh Jimena suffers so much…blah blah blah, to sum this up, “Love hurts, love scars, love wounds, and bonds
Any heart, not tough or strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain”
Sarita, the pinched virgin, blurts out “Oscar is gone, he will never come back”. Not if he is smart; Sarita, not if he is smart. I guess the girls don’t watch “Gray’s Anatomy” and have no idea that comatose persons can often hear conversations around them. Thankfully Jimena is catatonic and won’t be able to pick up a gun and blow her brains out.
Next, Sofie is doing her daily walk of pain into the church. She passes others who are praying in the pews.
The others get up and walk out, good luck getting any one on one time with the Virgincita. Sofie does a one on one, and tells the Virgincita how bad Sofie is suffering, (as well as the rest of us).
Juan wakes up and blurry eyed tries to focus on Babe Doctor’s looming face. She asks him what his name is and where did he come from? He doesn't know, he can’t remember. Babe doctor is secretly thrilled.
Look what I found in the woods, he is a stray, he is a good boy, yes he is..yes he is..can I keep him? I promise I’ll feed him and walk him everyday after school. Pleaaaaaaaazzzzzzzzeeee. Juan asks if he said any names in his sleep. Nope, nada, none.
Silvester comes in and it is time to do the endless job of filling up the water jugs, geez people get a pump.
Babe is left to wonder why did she lie? Gee I don’t have a clue.
Now Sofie is working in the lil Shop of Crap with Sarita, Eva is there also. I guess Eva couldn’t find anyone else to completely ignore her so she decided to let Sarita. Sarita has more snarky crap to say, Reyes bashing. Sofie is convinced Juan has stolen the baby. Why in the hell doesn’t someone actually look for the kid? SEE ABOVE PHOTO: I mean Sofie does the tramp to church everyday in those god awful Queen Victoria in mourning over Prince Albert outfits, instead of aaaahhhh maybe asking if anyone saw anything or maybe visiting the hidden Indian Village. Seriously how freeking far can that village be? Juan isn’t Michael Phelps, geez.
I guess everyone is going to go hang out with Abuelo.
Now back to the hospital, Ma of Rigo visits him. He is awake after the surgery. Mom gives him the two thumbs up and tells him about the it a miracle of the tumor. No it wasn’t a miracle, the miracle is that he lived thru brain surgery in that rat trap hospital. Rigo just keeps pressing the Morphine drip, say I bet that would make this easier for me.
Juan is helping fill the water jugs. He has recovered really fast. Actually I am not sure how much time has passed as the corn is a-growin. Sil tells him that his parents died of the epidemic, now the good Doctora is giving vaccines to stop another epidemic. Juan looks perplexed. Thankfully he doesn’t remember his parents died from an epidemic of bullets to the brain. Seems like there is a genetic weakness in the family for this epidemic.
Walking back Juan and Sil pass a man and woman and their baby.
DRAMA---Juan has flashbacks to holding the baby and then falling into the vast waterfall. Hey this is important cause Juan falls to the ground clinching his head and the scenes once again so Fellini like (black, white, color).
Now as Juan & Sil take the water back, the locals are being tormented by Porn Jefe, they are dying of hunger, maybe these people are illegal Guatemalans working for no wages, in crappy conditions being exploited by conservative Mexican CEO’s who threaten them with deportation. Maybe..Just Maybe. I think maybe the witch brujo is like drugging some of the people or maybe it is a village of Zombies.
Now Juan steps in and like Robin Hood after the Sheriff; he tells him to leave the people alone. The Porn star queries, WTF does Juan think he is? (the W, being Who not What). Juan says he is for justice.
Porn sics a couple of his half ass bad boys on Juan. One is the guy who was in love with Chunky Nun’s Sister, Chunky Torch Singer from Guapos. Juan hits him a couple of times, nada..finally Juan hits him on the head with a water jug and sends the other bad boy on his way. The native women sigh, my hero. Actually, the extras all look like they are laughing.
Meanwhile, Porn goes to see Babe Doctor, he says her days or number, but give me a lil sumpin sumpin and well. Babe says she would rather die first. She has long scissors in her hand.
Now, Ros, Sarita, Eva & Sofie are eating at Gramps. Gramps pushes Eva to tell the big news, she finally knows who her real daughter is. It is Root Uribe. Could these people be any more clueless. Eva tears up and continues how Crabi gave Eva’s kid to Rachael in exchange for the land. Meanwhile, Ros is tearing up. She finally says, I’m not your kid. Nah sorry Root is the real kid. I believe her, cause Crabi is happy I will never see her, never get a kiss a hug. I’m telling you this was freekin painful. Poor Ros, I would have gotten up marched out and done Franco like he’d never been done before, then come back and kicked Sarita ass just for good measure. Eva acts like it is no big deal, yeh Ros I feel like you are my daughter.
As Eva is lamenting the evil behavior of Crabi, Sofie goes all dark side and starts in on how she will never see her daughter and leaves.
Now I forgot, that Crabi is at David’s Bridal, she is scoping out a wedding gown for her wedding, no not white. She holds a few more dresses up..most are way too young for her, it’s not that they look to young..it is well that they look like clothes a human would wear.
Fer is off checking out rings. Yeh he goes for the big one. It takes money to make money and he wants to seal the deal.
---Now at this point I must insert, we all know Crabi is way too evil to live, but they must show her getting the crap kicked out of her before the end. Remember the scene in DA when Sofie went all BSC on Rod’s blonde trophy whore wife, at the same time Rod walked on the table and Franco crawled under it? That was the best. I so want to see it. They have whipped up such hatred for her, that a simple plunge off a church tower will not even be enough.
Later Fer & Crabi show up in lawyer’s office, now I may have this wrong..but I think the lawyer said the water still belongs to the Reyes. Oh well, now then Crabi tells the lawyer that she wants to disinherit her thankless children and make Fernando the sole inheritor. The lawyer looks surprised, Fer looks like a mucho happy sex toy to a rapidly aging cougar.
Sofie has gone to the Reyes house. Franco is busy sweating into the Pan. Sofie starts in on Franco about where is Juan the baby stealer? Franco repeats his same story. Juan loved her and Juan would never steal the baby. Sofie gets that same bend over pain in her uterus. Geez, go to the free clinic and get a penicillin shot. Franco says you have been turned against us by your mother. He then tells her that Crabi said, Pa Reyes never loved Ma Reyes cause he was all about Crabi. Sofie just can’t believe it. Franco looks pissed.
Once more proving if Stupid was Gold, being around the three sister would be like having you own leprechaun with a huge pot. Sofie wanders off, no doubt to bother the Virgin.
Franco stands in the kitchen looking angry, say wouldn’t this be a perfect time for Ros to stop by for a cookie?
Back to the Indian Village. Juan is swimming nude in the river with his big blurred digitized ass sticking up. Suddenly he feels a hand on his shoulder, it is Babe Doc & her digitized boobs, she says they are alone, well if you don’t count Porn Jefe and his film crew. She leans in for a kiss from Juan’s rather scab crusted split lip.
Looks like tomorrow Crabi is going all medieval on Sofie’s ass about disappearing dead bastard babies.
This once again proves my point about Stupid, seriously…why isn’t Sofie getting that behavior like this from a grandmother is a bit unusual.
Oscar is creeping around the Indian Village.
Will some good Robin Hood person tag this for me..
And also I need a sub recapper for next week as I will be in Moberly Mo & they have no Univision.

Of course we just HAD to see Crocodile Shaman's right flap of an ass-cheek hanging out of his loincloth one more time. *more puking* But what came after erased all the bad memories--Juan in various states of undress throughout the whole show. Jajajaja! Yeah!! To hell with Oscar's missing briefs--it's what was in 'em that counted. Babe Dra. was so freaking happy, she shaved the boy. LOL Yep, whether it was pajama bottoms half hanging off of him, or a delicately pixelated (nekkid) swim in the creek, Stephe was a happy bunneh. (Even Babe Dra. knows that hunk of man's face will heal.)
Seriously, I'm glad Juan's back and that he doesn't remember a thing. Yet. And the mashed-up face looks good. Y'all know if he'd turned up all pretty after the bullet and the waterfall, you'd be snarking. :)
Oscar comes across a dead fire and a spit. Oscar gleefully exclaims it is Juan’s. Yes, it is a roasted Mango. ROFLMAO!
What was that I saw? Ice queen Sarita showing all this cleavage through the big hole in her blue blouse? Huh. Save it, sister. Put your icebergs away--it's waaaaaaay too late to be going "there" now.
(Michael Phelps, becks... I bet you were channeling Mark Spitz :-)
Gawd love a duck--Croc Shaman is actually building an Army of Zombies Who Feel No Pain. ROFL Didn't matter how many magic leaves he rubbed on that one guy, though--a huge clay jar compliments of Mighty Joe Juan dropped him to the ground like a bad habit.
DOHfia, you are a piece of work. Eva and Rosy are coming to a sad realization right in front of you, both are in pain, Rosy is crying, you are ONCE AGAIN REMINDED your mama stole Eva's baby and GAVE IT AWAY TO SOMEONE IN EXCHANGE FOR LAND, and what do you do? Think maybe Crabzilla had something to do with taking your bastard she hopes is dead? Decide never to believe another word out of Crabby's mouth? NO. You make it all about DOHfia. "I'll never see my hija again." Wow. And later, you didn't believe Crabby could be soooo mean to Franco. Double wow. Telenovela rules say you and Juan will be together and happy at the end, but I sincerely hope they eff the rules and you don't get him. Sincerely.
I totally agree that Crabzilla should be stomped to within an inch of her life before Her Well-Deserved Death. Oh please, yes. She's all smiley-smiley gazing up at Feo her Sole Beneficiary. She is so stupid.
I about peed on the sofa when Babe Dra. just jumped into the water without a stitch on, right in Juan's face. Wow. Okay. This broad is full of surprises.
Franco and Rosy need to get back together and stay that way. All bets off. I too am proud to see him handling stuff like a man and doing what he has to do to keep the hacienda going.
Baby girls trip Juan's memory. What'll happen when he sees Oscar?
I vote no more Salem witch hunts in the forests of Mexico. Egad.
Love that Juan is back as the Incredible Hulk minus the green. What muscles! He certainly added a spark and made time fly. Yes, he has CHARISMA.
Slofia is still whining to everyone including Franco who has lost his parents, his sister and his brother and Rosario who just lost her supposed mother. If Juan does or doesn't regain his memory, he can just stay with Doctora and keep swimming nekkid in that swimming hole. Fine with me.
Yes Beckster, why haven't we seen a search party for the baby and we all agree it's time for Oscar to buy one of those new fangled inventions called... a flashlight.
I think a loincloth is part of native mesoamerican clothing but the witch doctor seems to be wearing the miniversion. Ugh! G in CA
Maybe my early "Purity CleanSoul", ancestors are channeling through me, but I hate those let's show Juan in bikini briefs, just lying there, crotch shot over and over and over. The guy is all bashed in the head and the camera goes for the crotch shots? Maybe I missed something, but was the raging fever due to a really bad case of the clap and not the severe head injury? Now I don't have a problem with Crabi & Fer rockin & knockin the walls down cause it is part of the story, & Crabi has turned into the cougar horn dawg. I don't have a problem with Babe Doctor jumping in the river, nude and trying to get busy with Juan cause yeh, she must have had repressed teen years. See family I was right, party not study and you have no later questionable scenes of ripping your clothes off and jumping the first slow good looking dude that crawls into your village. Well at least not while you are sober.
LOL - your comments about Juan's teeny bikini. I thought Oscar the moment I saw it.
And, after everything that Crabi has done, and after revealing that Ruth is Eva's daughter, etc., etc., the three dumb broads are worried about Mama in the hands of Feo. I hope Mama and Feo make a joint exit.
Hmmm... note to self: search YouTube for undigitized version of swimming scene from Mexico.
***If anyone beats me to it, please post a link/addy. I've got company coming today and mucho house-limpieza to do.
So they're burning the ladydoc at the stake, and they let her loose when Juan appears? WT*? Typical Mejía circo-madness.....
And once she stripped and cleaned him up, I'm sure her (ahem) medical assessment proved that they needed to go skinny-dipping. Together. Often. Naaahh, she won't want his memory restored. No way, José ...er, Juan.
HOW many raging fevers has Juan suffered in this telenovela by now??? I can count three by now, I think. How many more raging fevers will he suffer?
I guess Mono gave up on Macarena and moved back to the jungle...? Dude, get a life.
doris
First let me say how I need to move to this remote jungle in Mexico. I can never get my white clothes as white as these indigenous tribe. Its a tribal secret that I must know. And what the heck where they harvesting?
I love, love, LOVE Juan completely shaved. Now if he sticks to the slick back wet hair look.... omg yummy! The nude scene was the highlight for me.
Slofia is ugh! First in G-pa's cabin Sarita finally says something like 'you can't trust what Mama says she's told so many lies.' Yet this astronomical lie that Juan stole the baby is truth no questions asked.
Even when Franco tells Slofia the same thing (Your mama is a liar!) you can kinda of see the light bulb flicker that brain of hers and in a split second it's out...
Please Juan .... just stick with the doctora and Oscar just move on... Franco just take back Rosy. She's not the Elizodo sister so it's all good!
(Maybe Crabi tried to strangle her.0 It would explain her lack of functioning brain cells. ;o)
doris
And it's NEVER worth it.
But maybe I'll speed through real quick this time, just to make sure you were right about Juan's umderwear. ;-)
I gotta say, though, that while I agree Juan's better off with Leonora, I'll be kind of annoyed with her if she doesn't tell him the troot about remembering Libia. It doesn't seem very doctorly to withhold this kind of information from an amnesiac patient.
Can we switch Jimena & Slofia's positions? I am SO SICK of Slofia (DOHfia...ha...good one) and her sobbing stupdity that I'd like to see her catatonic for a few weeks.
Juan sure does have some miraculous healing powers & the scenes with the little black bikini were ever so artful. And how come he can get a nice shave & a haircut out in the jungle but back in town, he looks like a bum?
[bonk - DO NOT APPLY COMMON SENSE]
And yeah, what kind of a doctor is Doctor Babe? Nice hypocritic oath, which is not to be confused with the hippocratic oath most doctors are familiar with.
I like everyone's ideas for a revised TN ending. Ditch the tres hermanas for good, marry some muy caliente chiquitas, and live off of the land of the magic bean sprouts & sweaty bread. Feo & Crab should move to the jungle village where Porn Dude can make hot passionate love to Crabi & Diaper Dude can have Feo as his boy toy.
Fuego Maggie
I was thinking that maybe Rosario IS Ruth. Didn't some strange lady drop her off with Ophelia? But in the picture, Ruth looked a little different. Of course, there's something called plastic surgery, and we KNOW Rosario is no stranger to that!
Also, I have to admit that I'm entranced by Sarita's face. I know she's a terrible character, but she really is quite beautiful.
Beckster -- you caused me to laugh out-loud while reading the recap. Always a good aid to the day.
I have to say that this interlude without Juan, Oscar and Jimena -- the three I like best of the six brothers and sisters -- could be a great chance for Sarita and Franco to shine and show some smarts. Every once in a while I think that Sarita is going to be the one that figures it all out and sees their horrible mother for what she is. Franco has taken some responsibility with the hacienda, though he's a flob with the baking, from what we can see.
Does anyone else wish that Quintina would go away???
Also liked Beckster's homage to the debate. Fun to enjoy this time of good citizenship without being partisan.
Fuego Maggie
:-)
I found one copy, but it is the fuzzy version. I will continue searching!
Really after ages of no swimming they could have been kind enough not to pixilate it! And what doctor cleans a guy up and then hops naked in the pond with him? Man, that girl gets busy fast!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBeImuSLDgw&feature=related
actually Juan did not get a bad deal from the doc, if you go by TeleNovela's; you can bribe any doctor, lawyer or amante.
I am certain a black & decker was used on Rigo, but no worries like when you get a tooth pulled and bits of bone make their way thru the gum, old metal shavings from the prior use on a tin roof will eventually work there way out of his skull.
Oh, and then just now I see the second comment, she uses the a-word, too! Aarrrgghhh. This just drives me nuts. I don't understand how women can talk like this.
I can't not deny it, you are correct, I did ignore your request. Frankly, I know not why you bothered either. However don't beat yourself up over it. Seriously, since I do not suffer from OCD, I don't really understand why people choose to do something (as in you reading my recaps), that causes deep pain?
While I deeply sympathise with your pain, I do not feel myself qualified to diagnosis and treat your behavior. I would recommend contacting your local Mental Health Organization and seeking treatment for the compulsion to engage in painful behavior. Good Luck with that.
The a-word? You mean there are people in this day and age that think THAT's a bad word? PLEASE.
To get upset about that when there are so many real probs out there is beyond my scope. Sorry.
I'm sorry that anyone is offended by language out here, but really, you have the choice not to be reading. The board administrator seems to keep a pretty tight hold on what she (he? LOL) will or won't allow and should be the only person to do so since it is her blog.
Hombre and Fuego Maggie, I keep holding out hope for the humanization of Sarita. I find the actress totally compelling and it makes me crazy that she is trapped in this crap story line!

Be sure you get the set of interchangeable colored propellers. They are only $5.99 more you know!
I did a couple of recaps WAY BACK WHEN. It's a lot of work.
Last time I looked, we still have free speech. If you don't like what you read here, go away.
Maybe if Gabi spontaneously combusts at the end of the show, the mind control she has over the stupid stepford children will be released and they will be human again.
Did you order your beanie?
Porn star staches! LOLOL You know, that Mark Spitz was a hotty back in the day. Man looked good.
Connie, you missed it! It was all up close, girl.
Feo & Crab should move to the jungle village where Porn Dude can make hot passionate love to Crabi & Diaper Dude can have Feo as his boy toy. Maggie, ROFLMAO!! Y'all are all killin' me.
Misterio... I saw "Sarita" doing a commercial for VANIDADES (I think) Magazine the other day, and yes, especially out of character she is really gorgeous.
Hey, I'm glad you're with us, Traveling Lady.
I agree, Anon 5:27. The really scary thing about Crabzilla is that she truly believes everything she does is okay, involving God's blessing in all her poisonous deeds (Libia's death, babies' deaths, physical and verbal abuse), all those crucifixes while she's rolling around with the man married to her daughter... The woman would pass a lie detector test, easily.
Now here's my medical opinion (although I'm not a doctora): Juan shows up drenched in blackstrap molasses. How has he survived in the jungle with his eyes glued shut? Dra does a medical style sponge bath. Makeup and Wardrobe applies has a bullet-dot on his chest and another on his back...to show the bullet "went through". His mouth is distorted and puffy and icky, did he get shot in the mouth? Quickly, Silvestre, get him some healing herbs!!!

The thing I'm wondering about is--if you fall off a cliff into a waterfall and float downstream in the state of Puebla -- you land in the Amazon rainforest???!!!???

Doesn't Sofia look like she could of been Laura's sister in Little House on the Praire? She totally dresses like it and the hair is perfect. Yikes.
I just started reading your recaps and totally enjoy them.
LL in LA
You're right about Franco + Sarita - a long time ago a bunch of us were wondering how they could possibly be a couple. Except for their mutual love of poetry, it's hard to see the appeal.
Franco and Rosario seem to be a much better couple. And Pedro had it baaaad for Sarita, so it'd be nice if they got together instead.
But what do I know? I'm just another one of the gang suffering through this mess...
I don’t speak Spanish so I really appreciate all the hard work that goes into these recaps and I was thrilled when I ran across this blog after I became enchanted with LaTraicion.

Small world huh? Yeh, Moberly, Madison, & Middle Grove.
I was in Moberly at the end of Jan. My maternal side of the family is from the Middle Grove area (pop 50).
We went up for a funeral and my husband saw Middle Grove for the first time, it made his ranch look like a city. However there is no Walmart right down the road from his ranch.
cindybin, you are ridiculous. I would remove your remark except the comments that proceeded from it are hilarious. just. leave. write your own recaps.
or try bowdler_reviews_fuego.com
1. perfect recap, beckster
2. thanks to all the readers who have really gotten into the spirit of this show. your comments rock!
Thanks alot and no reason to watch..Jest Sofie is mad wearing bad fashion
Babe Doc tries to seduce the unresponding Juan.
Crabi is evil,
Fer is a jerk
we are left to ponder the where abouts of the missing messiah baby & speaking of which, howcome the 3 kings can't find the kid?
But come say hi to us folks watching Cuidado if you can stand it. (I think you posted something the other day.)
Traveling Lady, you wanted Quintina to go away... she is about equal parts annoying and charming to me, so I'll keep her. I would like her to leave off the silly lipstick. She's one of the required stock characters, the household help who is also a court jester and comic relief.
Has the doctorcita stopped to realize she's lusting after Juan the same way the old creepy guy is lusting after her??
Loved all the comments, too.
