11-20-08 Fuego "Some men see things as they are and say, "Why?" Juan dreams of things that never were and says, "Why not?"
Survey says….Vanilla is the most popular flavor ice-cream in the world, white bread is the most popular bread in America. In an effort to please the masses, this episode will be scrubbed squeaky clean of any possible subversive comments. Let the youngins join in the fun, they probably need a break from studying for that Spelling Bee, Old Testament Prophets…Those spellings confuse me to this day. Actually I never got to be HomeSchooled. My parents were no happier to pay taxes than any other American, but Public School, YowZa to them that was a bargain the big yellow bus picked us up each day and returned us each night, for free and until the age of eighteen. At last taxes they actually benefited from. So Parents whip up a big batch of Jiffy pop and settle down for some fine family viewing of our neighbors south of the border. You will get to experience Sunny Mexico, much the same way Americans do who take those wonderful trips to Cabo and come back remarking how wonderful it is that all the Mexicans speak English and are so happy and how you can get such great bargains at the those malls the tour buses take you to. It’s just like San Antonio only everyone speaks English and the drinks are better.
We begin with Juan crying.
Juan tells Pablito that they will be a family one big family.
Sofie discovers the empty cribs and she starts yelling at the Nun. She questions the Nun repeatedly about the whereabouts of the three cuter than button orphans. Finally the Nun breaks her twenty year long vow of silence and tells Sofie that the buttons where adopted by a young couple. What young couple? Who knows?
Well fool me once…Looks like the young couple adopting the little rays of sunshine are Yeh Yeh..Oscar and Jimena. Gosh Darn, I was like two seconds away from passing out. I had been holding my breath during this tense segment. PSA…Smokers I’m sure you came to sometime after the papers were signed and the happy parents, (Jimena & Oscar) were carrying the kidlets as well as the beloved parish priest who was carting the spare.
Meanwhile Fer is hanging around the outside of the orphanage, he is trying to help childless young couples fulfill their hearts desire by directing them to the one-stop shop for human trafficking. The young couple that was intended to be the loving parents of the button triplets, walk past Fer. They are carrying a young boy. Fernando is upset as he carefully screened the couple and by the information gleaned they were perfect candidates to adopt three girls.
Oscar & Ximena adopt the daughters.
Fernando sees the intended parents and they have a boy.
Padre Tad who witnessed the Oscar/Jimena adoption; sends the couple and the newly adopted little boy on their way. He tells Fernando that suspects Fernando was up to no good. Fernando says the priest always thinks the worst of him.
Sofie runs and tells Juan that someone else has adopted the beloved daughters.
Oscar & Ximena take the daughters home. Gabi can’t believe they adopted the children after all they are divorced. No they are not they respond as it is do-overs if you sign divorce papers while in a coma.
The adoption lady runs into Quitana and tells Quitana that Oscar & Jimena adopted the kids. Quitana says that is impossible they are divorced and live in two separate homes.
Juan and Sofie come in and see the kids. It is a very happy scene of good clean family unity.
Later Adoption lady comes by and tells Ximena that they have to give the kids back as they lied about their marital status. Sofie begs and cries that the one baby is hers, but alas they have fallen love with all the babies. Ximena says fine, that Oscar will move into the Hacienda. Gabi says no way. Adoption lady agrees to allow one week for the families to straighten this out. Wow, I would have thought maybe they would have all moved to the Reyes Ranch. Ooooopppss sorry there I go questioning the TelVista Authority. Forget what I said, it was crazy talk..questioning authority? As if, I mean that is why they are the Authority Right? I mean they know best and they will guide us though this tale.
Fernando comes in and Gabi is rather cold with him. Basically he is worthless and good for nothing. The look on poor Fer face is heartbreaking, no matter how many moral transgressions he commits it is never enough for Gabi. Without the support of a caring spouse a man can only commit so many crimes, before he just gives up and turns to a life of obeying the law. Gabi will have no one to blame, but herself when this happens.
Meanwhile the well meaning Padre and the scrappy abuelo (hey kids that means grandfather in Spanish) discuss the near miss of strangers adopting the three orphans. Hmmmm the wise elder concludes, it must have to do with money.
Oscar and Frankie as Juan why Juan and Sofie broke up.
Juan does not want to tell. The would endanger the idealistic relationships the others are engaged in.
Oddly enough Sofie is having the exact same conversation with her sisters.
Juan finally tells the brothers that the infamous Ber is the true killer of Ma & Pa Reyes. No Puede Ser.
The brothers are crushed. Just when their relationships where going so well with the girls. Oh Capulets and Montagues. A curse on both your haciendas. *This translates to Oh Hatfields and McCoys a curse on both your shacks.
Sofie gets out the belt and shows her sisters. Oh the horrors, how can it be. Pa was the best Pa in the world. In fact many young girls referred to him as Daddy. Ximena and Sarita are crushed as they see the ship of happy dreams sail off the edge of the earth with the sisters still standing alone on the pier.
The adorable Grandfather has built a mock-up of the hacienda and with his trusty magnifying glass he looks from one room to another. Questioning what was in it for Gabi & Fer, think, think, think he thinks.
Finally Eureka, the land…Scarlett the land.
The brothers Reyes descend on the Gabi house to confront her over the murder of their much missed, much loved parents. The brothers are dressed in traditional Mexican costumes. Oscar and Frankie as handsome Charros, while Juan sports more of a beach cabana boy look, sometime spotted in the famous bath houses. Adding even more thrilling cultural charm to our tale. Gabi tells a tale as old as the earth itself or roughly about 4500 years, love, betrayal, jealousy, snakes, murder. JJ Robles-Reyes, was enamoured with the fiesty young vixen Gabi. Ber found out and was crazed by the thought. She describes the murder scene, saying Poor What’sHerName Ma Reyes was shot a la drive-by, wrong place, wrong time. Juan replays the beta-tape in his head. Gabi has been mournful tears in her eyes. The boys leave and Gabi’s face turns from horror to a shudder and then a happy face. I guess she must have had a happy thought of unicorns right there at the end. Thoughts of magical single horned creatures are often known to cause a woman to shudder.
Gramps visits Ber’s Lawyer. Our neighbors to the South do not have the same legal system that we have. I guess it is okay for lawyers to discuss wills with anyone who stops by. The lawyer tells Gramps that Ber left everything to Sofie, if she divorced Fer and then bore a child by someone else. The lawyer seems surprised that this is not common knowledge as Fer & Gabi were quite aware of the conditions.
Fer goes to see Gabi’s lawyer. Gabi’s lawyer tells Fer that he has been disinherited. Fer is no longer in Gabi’s will. See Fer no good deed goes unpunished.
Fer later talks to some gentlemen who used to do odd jobs for him. I believe he just paid them a huge sum of money to disappear the other day, but it seems they are back and he has another job for them. Yes, Mexican men are crazy romantics and I just bet Fer, realizing how much he loves Gabi will try to win her love again. What could it be? Candy, flowers, maybe a pony?
Now to the Reyes Hacienda. Just like the Brady house, the three brothers share a room. This is very common in Mexico. People live in huge Haciendas, but the Latin Blood is blood of the Family and much warmer than ours. Grown men often sleep in the same room with their brothers, well into their twilight years. In fact 72% of adult males do not actually sleep in the same room with their wives, but continue to room with their brothers. In rural parts of Mexico, this is partially due to a myth dating to Aztec times that women will steal a man’s Mojo during the night and sell it to a demon for earthly goods, in times past it was for gold and precious stones and peyote, now it is for a dishwasher and satellite dish, oh and still peyote.
Juan is dreaming…he dreams of the death of his parents. In his dream he sees the belt buckle, he hears the rough language of the assassins. He sees the face of his poor mother silently begging him to remain quiet.
Suddenly the face of the shooter becomes the face of Ber, mocking him.
Juan screams out in his sleep. Oscar and Frankie leap from their beds and jump on Juan.
This behavior in America would seem odd, but lest we forget this is a different culture and it is in no way threatening for an adult sleeping male to be leapt upon by two other men dressed only small briefs. It is a common occurrence. Juan is sleep addled and fears he is being attacked by Ber. When he is finally roused from sleep. He tells Oscar and Frankie that he saw the scene of the murder and indeed it was Ber who killed their parents.
Wow…mystery solved.
Next day…Gabi is going to town with the ranch lackey, he forgot to give her a telegram. Gabi reads it and she is very distressed. Ricardo Uribe has taken a turn for the better.
She gets out of the SUV and is standing in the street. We see a pickup truck with the men Fer gave the job to the evening before. They rev the engine and aim straight for Gabi. Her eyes open to an enormous size.
I believe these low day labours that Fer hired in good conscious probably spent the night drinking and playing cards. They probably forgot all about the 1-800-flowers and in a rush to do their jobs have now endangered the chance of Fer and Gabi making up.
We begin with Juan crying.

Looks like the kids know some english. When Jimena was saying adios to the three kids, they replied by saying bye.
Somebody should smack Quintina for running her mouth too much. Loose lips sink ships. Telling the social worker that Oscar and Jimena are divorded was not too smart. Don Agustin may yet show her his wrath.
With that telegram, we will probably see ruth and Ricardo enter the hacienda.
I asked this before and I will ask again, Is that Sarita singing the song in the store scene with Franco? If that is her, she has a nice voice.

Beckster you are in rare form today! Thanks so much for the recap. It sounds like things are heating up. Can't wait to see Ricardo. Should be interesting.
Now that's what I'm talkin' 'bout; good country people doin' good clean, fun, country recaps. [God bless thee child.]
Changing character...
Now, about your intro--so right!
Though, I must say; Public schools are a lot like prison--the food sucks, they tell you what to do and how to do it, and if someone tries to make you their bitch, you stick 'em with a shiv in the shower.

Beckster: I'm glad Chantilly Lace or Vanilla Pie - or whatever/whoever had taken over your brain and body has left town and that the old Beckster is back and in rare form.
Sorry to say - well not really - that I missed this chapter last night. Your recap does it all for me - especially the anecdotes about Mexican men. So, they don't sleep with their wives - but, with their brothers. Who'd have thought that. Where, or where, do all the babies come from.
Anyway, I'm sure Jimena and Oscar will clear up the marriage/divorce/marriage situation. She can put on a pair of red sequined shoes, stomp her pretty little foot and make it happen. No - that was Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz.
Juan need some serious head shrinking. Maybe he should go over a set or two at Televisa and hire JuanMi from Cuidado. JuanMi needs the business since he's handing out calling cards in the hospital cafeteria.

ahh, Beckster, fine form today. Surely, the boys are just funnin ol Crabi, won't squish her, but deliver those flowers. We won't be rid of Crabi so easily. In that case, Feo would be out on the street, esto no puede ser. Why, oh why, didn't anyone think of Jimena moving to casa Reyes/Robles to appease trabajadora social? The writers are so LAME. I guess that's why we (I) are so hooked

Very funny recap. This is one show where both the show itself and the recap often make me laugh.
As for the Will thing, here in Maryland (and probably most of the U.S.), wills are private while the person is alive (so the lawyer who told Fer he was disinherited was breaking the attorney-client privilege). But once someone dies and the will is probated (filed and proven valid), they're public record. And notices are sent to all interested parties that they can inspect the will, etc. So the lawyer Gramps went to wasn't doing anything wrong by telling Gramps what was in dead Bernardo's will. Actually, he should have contacted Sofia to tell her about he conditions.
Of course, we're not in the U.S. (or even Mexico), we're in TeleMexiDoom, so all bets are off.
I don't think Gabi is likely to be killed, but how about another coma? Amnesia? Coyote's truck saves her? Should be fun!

How oh how will Gabriela escape impending doom - will Coyote suddenly appear and save her? Will Fernando suddenly appear and save her realizing that he is no longer the "sole heir" and needing to get on her "good" side again so he won't lose out on the hacienda and money? Will Mighty Mouse swoop down and save her? Please someone, save dear old Gabriela.. oh, sorry, didn't mean that, got too carried away with the melodrama.

Beckster, I found your beanie. Please, for the love of God & all of His creatures, immediately put it on & step away from the nuclear waste dump that's destroying our snarkarific recrapper. I just can't handle sweetness, innocence, & Mary Poppins. Great job, BTW...you may be all sugar & spice these days but you haven't lost your wicked wit.
Well, well, well...things are cookin' now, aren't they? We can only hope (dream, pray) that Crabi finally gets what she deserves but in Mexidoom, the viewers are more tortured than Juan & Sofia's ill fated love.
Do we have a countdown on the # of shows left? Please tell me it's less than 100.

Wowsers, Beckster, you can even do good clean fun! I appreciated the translations into redneck especially!
Something tells me it's still a bit early for Gabriela to get killed yet. Hopefully she'll survive this murder attempt, because I want to see how she tries to murder Feo.
Poor vanilla. Everyone makes fun of vanilla because of its pasty complexion and soothing scent, but they still love it.

I thought that the dumbfounded expressions on the faces of the trio Robles-Reyes after their confrontation with Gabriela spoke volumes. Good acting? You decide. In any event, well-played, Gabriela! Carlos

What about a nice maiming? I think they should at list maim her a little. Knock her down, maybe a broken arm or a broken leg. The possibilities are endless.
This is no spoiler but just a thought. When she finally realizes that Feo is really trying to kill her maybe she will turn on the Coyote-signal and he will come to her rescue and they will both set up Feo. (ie, Murder, Death, Kill.)

I sure hope you are right about the Coyote-signal, Connie. I'd hate for that weird storyline to end up going nowhere.
It seems to me that the best way the Reyes men can get back at Gabi is to marry her daughters and move them away from her and live happily ever after in their hacienda with babies and all.
But of course this being Mexidoom that would be too easy.
Jimena, just move in with your husband. For God's sake. You love him, he loves you, and you just adopted 3 babies. Please!!!!!

Oh Molly, I can just see it now! :) I wonder who would be the winner? Ha! Probably Gramps because he's had more practice.
Vanilla is good, it is calming it is like living in Pleasantville 24-7. Think of all the time I am saving by no longer craving Coffee or Triple Fudge. Each day is pleasant and the same. I am saving lots of time & braincells no longer pondering why and just surfing e-bay for inspiring refrigator magnets. I am blocking CNN & MSNBC from by cable (I still of course want to get any real news from FOX, but only if I see some diaster on the Weather Channel..which is my real source for News). The History Channel is now banned from my living room, (well except for Monster Quest..Darn you Sasquatch, you can't hide for ever, I worked with a girl who had one's baby and the govenment is looking for him, cause they don't pay child support and are linked to Alquida or maybe it was the Weathermen). Watching the History Channel made my head really hurt. The Big Bang..what kind of crazy talk is that? I mean dynamite wasn't even invented 4,500 years ago. Who writes that stuff? HannaBarBara?
Wow...gotta switch to E-bay I am bidding on a set of Thomas Kincaide cottage air freshners.
Guess what, you plug them in and the little cabins lit up and yes..the scent of vanilla.

Connie~~~Yes..maiming is a good suggestion. I vote for a broken arm AND a broken leg...and some kind of injury that would render her mute and unable to roll her eyes would be great. Not only is Crabby an evil person...she is a terrible painter. What is up with slashing your work before the paint is dry?? Well, it was bad, so it was probably a good idea. I paint a little, and sometimes my art does not turn out as well as I thought it would , but usually just paint over the canvas. [Those canvases are expensive.]

What a great recap to such a great show! I laughed out loud reading your recrap while at work and my boss came in to see what I was doing! Almost busted and it was your fault! Poor Fer...he really can't please Crabby.
I particularly enjoyed seeing Franco apply the half-Nelson to Juan to restrain him after that nightmare.
I laughed so hard at Gabriela's face when she saw the truck and JUST STOOD THERE!!
I can't wait for tonight's episodio.

Beckster, you are scaring me. I can tolerate all kinds of insanity, but I draw the line at collecting refrigerator magnets. Soon you will find yourself buying broken refrigerators to keep in your garage just for a place to store your new magnets (inside will be your extra Precious Moments figurines - the duplicates you bought "just in case"). Trust me, I've seen this before and it's not pretty.
Please eat something spicy before it's too late!!

I think it is time for intervention or an exorcism. We need to nip it in the bud before she gets out of control! ;-)
Oh Mama, it's your boy Nickster here; you know, it's just my luck that I finally re-encountered you and after all my seemingly hopeless nights of dreaming, you turned out to be a hockey mom. I don't even do ice sports-I hate snow and 4WD! Anyway, you need to know your worth; that's why I'm telling you--no I'm demanding--that you get the Countdown with Keith Olbermann back on your TV by tonight, or my name isn't Nickster. For who else was it that laughed at the hopelessly butch Sarita with me, or who was there for me when I myself almost recapped without mentioning the fab fashions of Sofia and Juan? It was you. The point is, there's more to life than Billy Joel, prayer groups, pinecone shops, Bill O'Reily, and Vanilla candle gleaning. Just remember; if you ever think you see this "light" I hear born-agains talking about, run far, far away from it.

Nickster, I fear it is too late to save her! It's the evil Precious Moments statues--they channel the nuclear waste straight into her brain.

Thanks for the great recap. :-)

Hombre, i too live in Redskins country in Maryland.
Molly that wheel chair joust between Don Agustin and Gabriela would be interesting.
If Gabriella survives the hit and run do you think Fernando kills those two ex- bad love bar employees?

Okay...Okay...
You found me out...
I was going to the mattresses, trying to hide out like during the McCarty hearings. I really don't collect figures, magnets, & I am quite proud of all the awesome stuff that the WPA built in the thirties. I really do think all the people on Fuego are stupid to the point of carrying battery back-ups in case they forget to breathe. I really don't want to type words like Cupid cause it rhymes with stupid and won't offend anyone or type St*p*d. I really do think some people watch TeleNovelas as a cultural learning experience. Just like I learned all about the oil business from watching Dallas. I really do agree with that thing about opiate of the masses, only I would really prefer morphine.
Nickster..I came out cause I just can't deny you and they rewrote that law in Nebraska so I can't dump your snarky ass there.

Finally, a mama who's proud of her boy! At last I can get married because my long-awaited mother will be there to give me away! Yay for fútbol! Gol!
And we won't be having none of those "vanilla" or "marble" cakes--strictly chocolate.

I think it would be really funny if they made Gabi make that stroke face again.
I have a slot-car set that is grandmas in wheel chairs instead of plain old sports cars. Now when I play I will call them Gabi and Augi!

Oh and Beckster, thank you for putting down the vanilla scented Glade plug in and giving up knitting mittens for your cat. You were really starting to creep me out! LOL!
Yes, with Chocolate icing and open bar. You however are forbidden from where a White Marachi suit,
We all know what the color white at a wedding stands for and no child of mine will carry that stigma.
Otherwise anything goes.

Beckster--ack! just as I was about to comment last night about the awesomely sugary sweet recap, I lost my internet connection. Now I come back to find out that the new Beckster is already gone!
So my suggestion to take your old refrigerator out to the front yard and make a smoker out of it...no go?

Beckster,
As a Mexican who lived in Northern Mexico in rural areas like this novela and big cities for many years, with a large extended family still there, I don't agree with the assertion that Mexican men do not sleep with their wives in the same room, same bed. I have never known of anyone that didn't. Parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, neighbors--if there is only one bedroom, one bed, the couple get it, married or not. The young and unmarried get tossed on the floor very often. If there's a second bedroom it often has two beds, girls in one, boys in the other.
The very rich, I'm sure don't have to share room or bed.
I really enjoy your recaps. Thank you and the other recappers for all your hard work.
