Fuego en la Sangre, 11/21/08: Augie Takes Gabi’s BULL By the Horns

Capítulo #143

[Note: My request from last week still stands. Thanks. –ed.]

Both Fernando and Gabi are getting antsy being married to each other and both, it seems, are in for a big surprise…….. Feo meets with the attorney in Puebla City who did Gabi’s will, and tells him he’s there for “his wife” to get a copy of her will. The lawyer tells him that apparently Feo wasn’t kept in the loop: Gabi expunged him from her will, so All-Fer Nando is back to being None-Fer Nando.

Gabi, meanwhile, has had Rosendo drive her into town on bidnez. Rosendo gives her a telegram from Root that Ricardo Uribe has recovered. She crabs to Rosendo over not giving her the telegram sooner. Crabi gets out of the SUV and walks absent-mindedly into the street. Feo’s pea-brained posse has been following her in their truck ‘cause Feo’s put a hit on her. (Query: Why are there three guys in that truck when only one needs to slam down the gas pedal and go for it?) The driver revs the engine and races the truck into the middle of the street in their attempt to run her over.

At the same time, Augie’s gone to visit Bernie’s attorney. The lawyer tells him that Gabi and Fer were there ages ago and found out that Sofia’s defunct daddy left her the whole Elizondo enchilada, provided she was divorced from Fernando and had the first kid with a man she really loved. “They were very troubled because of it.” “—Ah, yes?”

Rosendo sees the truck racing towards Crabi and yells a heads up to her. She panics and can’t move. As Viewerville cheers on the bad guys, El Coyote sees what’s about to happen and races over just in time to push Crabi out of the way.

Back in Puebla City, Fer is now trying to wheedle out of Gabi’s attorney which of the daughters her money’s now going to AND why nobody ever bothered to tell him about it; but the lawyer refuses to discuss it and courteously kicks Feo’s devious derriere out of his office.

Again in Cd. Serdán, Coyote wants to take Crabi to a doctor to check out her hurt foot. All the while the poor guy can’t seem to take his eyes off her.

Across town Oscar and Franco pay a visit to Jimena and Sarita at the Trinkets R Us while a shirtless Juan treats us to another beefcake bucket-bath and wonders if his and Sofia’s love could be stronger than the painful memory of his parents’ murder at the hands of Bernardo Elizondo, the father of the love of his life. “Lots has happened since I returned from the jungle. I recovered my daughter and kept my promise, and I returned her to her mother.” Juan thinks to himself that he swore to avenge his parents’ death but figures it is going to be a bit difficult, since the guy who’s guilty, the one who destroyed his entire life and all his hopes, is already dead. (You’re hittin’ on about all cylinders so far, Juan. Well, almost.)

Across the way in her bedroom of the Double-E (Hacienda de las Elizondo y del Escandon) Sofia pets that same old angora baby sweater and is suddenly all smiles again because she is remembering the GREAT time she and Juan had when they went looking for baby clothes together. (Note: Sofia is officially no longer in “luto” (mourning) cuz she has exchanged the Gaudy in Gothic for Pretty in Pink.) “Juan gave me back my daughter and kept his promise like he always does.” A bit later she tinkles on that bell collection of hers and considers how fate continues to separate them from each other. A bit later, she tearfully admits to herself that Mama has succeeded in finally separating her daughters from the Reyes’. Oh, the pain, the shame, the grief! ~~~~~

Back at Trinkets, Franco and Oscar tell Jimena and Sarita the reason that Juan and Sofia have ended it a-gain. Sarita and Jimena refuse to believe their father was capable of murder, or that Mama could have concocted such a story if it weren’t true. (Say, what?) They’re hoping it’s all a misunderstanding or some sort of mistake. (Oh.) They have to break up, but first the two couples have to talk it out separately. In particular, Jimena and Oscar have to discuss what to do because of the little girls they’ve just adopted.

Back in town, wonders never cease as Gabi actually thanks El Coyote for saving her life. In fact, she tells him he can dispense with the “Doña” --and that he’s actually a nice guy when you come to think of it! Viewerville gags as Coyote tells her he IS a nice guy, but only where she is concerned, and that “nothing would be the same without her.” She refuses to see a doctor. He tells her to remember she can always count on him for whatever, anything out of the ordinary, even. He also warns her to be careful of those around her because what just happened to her to his way of thinking was done on purpose. (Gasp!)

Feo drives home in a snit. He thinks to himself that yeah, he is with Gabriela because she excites him, but her money excites him a whole lot more. His new plan is going to be to seduce her all over and convince her to make him her sole heir again. First he’s got to call off the hit or some other lucky S.O.B. will end up with her money instead of him.

Sofia asks the virgencita if Juan might ever be able to forgive and forget.

Juan visits the bank. His loan is finally paid off and his family’s hacienda is theirs free and clear once again.

Oscar tells Jimena he still loves her even if she doesn’t love him anymore, but she needs to grow up and understand he’s talking about the love between a man and a woman, not a pre-teen or a high school fling. (Go for it, Oscar! Yowza!) He’s not moving back in with her just for the sake of the little girls they adopted. If that’s all she wants, then it’s up to Sofia and Juan to take up the slack and forget the rest of it. Juan and Sofia have a responsibility to get married themselves if they want to hang onto those little girls.

A little while later Sofia is playing with the three little girls when Juan trots by on Capricho. He overhears her saying she wants to forget all her pain and sorrow. He jumps off and asks if she will manage to forget him too. Sofia says she’ll never be able to forget him. He says he can’t get her out of his mind. He’s conflicted. All he has to do is to look at her and he wants to run to her, to hug her, kiss her and touch her, to make love to her; but he just can’t.

Back at Trinkets meanwhile, Franco tells Sarita he doesn’t blame her for what her daddy did, and he still loves her with all his might, but they’d never be happy together because of IT. Sarita agrees and says the worst of it is that it’s happened just when they were actually finally getting along. So, it’s “Adios para siempre” and Franco exits stage left.

That night Augie explains to Sofia how she fits into Bernardo’s will as the sole heir to everything and how he doesn’t doubt Gabi got rid of her daughter so she wouldn’t lose control of the hacienda or the Elizondo fortune. Sofia is impactada and still refuses to believe that Mama could be guilty of all the horrible things that have happened to the family. Anyway, the only thing that matters to her is the three little girls. Augie can’t believe she wouldn’t want the inheritance but she says it’s stained with blood, so no go.

Sofia and Augie get frustrated with each other and go round and round. He insists that Gabi is lying and that Bernardo didn’t murder anyone. She insists that Mama isn’t lying and has no reason to; and despite everything, no, she can’t believe Daddy did such dastardly deeds either, but everything her mother told Juan fits perfectly with his memories. How could she have known so much if her father hadn’t been there and told her about it? Somebody had to have told her, and it very well could be her father. (I’m getting a headache.) Augie insists that somebody else told her, and that that somebody else was right there: “That somebody else was the true murderer of the Reyes’ parents and that somebody else was not your father!”

Augie tells Sofia that as far as the inheritance is concerned, he refuses to let Fernando get his mitts on a single centavo. Even if she’s not interested in it she owes it to herself, to her sisters, and to her daughters to fight for it, and he’s going to make sure that she does.

Speaking of Mama, Gabi is sitting in her bed nursing her foot and thinking about what El Coyote said to her earlier in the day when he saved her life when None-Fer Nando comes in faking concern about her nearly getting run over. He wonders why the family isn’t in there slobbering all over her because of it. Gabi says she never bothered to tell them about it. Then she throws El Coyote in his face and says that Coyote has been more attentive to her than he, her own husband, has. None-Fer swears he loves her more than anything in the world, so how could she continue to insult and to hurt him like that? She says good to know he loves her so much because she just changed her will and he’s no longer her sole heir.

Just then Augie comes rolling into the bedroom with Sofia to let them both know the jig is up. Even if Gabi would not have changed her will, she knows darned well she doesn’t have a right to any of the Elizondo fortune because Sofia is the sole heir since she had a daughter --exactly as Bernardo’s will stipulated!!

Across the way at the Double R (Hacienda de los Robles-Reyes) Juan and his brothers are backslapping each other because the mortgage to the hacienda is paid off in full and Juan has kept his promise to their parents. Oscar tells Juan then that he’s decided that even though he doesn’t want to, he’s bringing Jimena and the little girls they’ve adopted to live with them. Juan refuses to have Oscar live with the daughter of their parents’ murderer. He says they’ll find another solution to the problem with the little girls. He doesn’t know exactly what yet, but one thing is certain and that is that he will not let the little girls be taken away from them.

Back at the Double E, Gabi puts on another show for Snowfia. Gabi tries to play dumb but Augie says he’s been to see the attorney and the attorney told him himself that Gabi and Feo were there to see him a long time ago getting the 411 on that will. He wouldn’t put it past Fernandito that he convinced Gabi to get rid of Sofia’s daughter so that Gabi could arrange to keep the fortune for herself AND him.

Gabi plays another sympathy card, and for the umpteenth time--and Sofia falls for it for the umpteenth time. No, of course Sofia doesn’t believe Mama would go to such lengths, but Fernando is another story. She doesn’t trust him in the slightest. Gabi whines that she’s tired of all these accusations and says that she didn’t want to tell her before so as not to frighten her, but she was nearly run over in the street that morning. “Oh, Mamita!”

Mamita says she’s fine and just needs to rest. Augie’s not interested and tells her to give it and everybody else in the family a rest--just nix the nasty ‘tude and tricks. Fer warns Augie that although he’s been patient up to now, if Augie doesn’t stop harassing him and “his wife” he will sue him. Augie, he says, persists in trying to wreck their lives despite the fact that it was already proven that Armando was the one who kidnapped Sofia’s baby. Augie says wasn’t it convenient the way Armando and Rosario died like they did and suggests Fer is in this up to his neck. So, he’s not giving Fer the pleasure of leaving him alone for an instant; and he’s going to be keeping a close eye on Fer from now on. Augie says he doesn’t believe him and neither does Juan, who really will turn the two of them in to the police.

“Turn us in! Juan Reyes turn us in?” ¡Qué horror! So Fer snorts, “With what evidence?” Gabi ramps it up and deflects. “Oh, Sofia! Stop listening to your crazy abuelo and all those crazy accusations of his!” Oh, oh! It’s inconceivable that her own father, the crazy coot, would dare accuse her of such horrendous things. Sure, she and Sofia have had their disagreements but she never ever has acted against her! “Look me in the eyes, Sofia! You DO believe me, DON’T you?” Sofia first looks at Augie who’s rolling his eyes. She looks back at Mama and says no, of course not. --Viewerville wants to pull its hair out as it watches in amazement, also for the umpteenth time, Sofia showing her naively misplaced support for mendacious Mamita with another mother-daughter hug fest. (¡Caray! ¡Caray!)

Meanwhile, Fer’s two not-so-blood-thirsty chumps, happy as hell that when the rubber literally hit the road they didn’t actually manage to splat flat and smear Doña Gabriela all over the pavement after all, decide they’d better skip town and hop the next bus to Anywhere.

Across town, Padre Tadeo and Juan have a heated discussion about what can be done legally with the little girls since Jimena and Oscar don’t live together anymore. Juan warns Tadeo that one way or the other he will never let those little girls be given back to the orphanage.

Back at the Double E, Gabi’s pity party continues. Gabi concedes Sofia is now full owner of the hacienda. Fernando selflessly declares he will remain with “his wife as she is”, without expecting anything in exchange because what keeps him there is “only the love that we share.” Gabi adds it’s woe is she, having now lost everything that she had, and after expending all that effort fighting tooth and nail alongside Bernardo, and for what? For him to not only betray her love with a younger woman but to snatch away everything that was once hers.

Ok. She and Fer will leave whenever Sofia says, right now if she wants. Augie makes a quick save for Sofia, saving her from herself before she falls into another one of her Mamita’s traps. He takes over: “Very well done, Gabriela! Brilliant acting job! Sofia will think things over first, and later, after she decides she’ll let you know. Now let’s go, Sofia.” “Ok, Abuelo.” She rolls him out of the room and it’s score one for the home team –-the real home team.

Once they’re alone, Feo wants to know what Gabi’s planning to do now. She tells him she’ll let him know when she’s ready and kicks him out of their bedroom. Alone, Gabi swears to herself that “Sofia will never ever get what’s mine! Never!” (¡Qué melodramática! Y’all understand that, right?)

Across the hall Augie immediately calls a meet in Sofia’s room with her and her sisters to tell them about Bernardo’s last will and that he recently discovered their father named Sofia as his sole heir. Sofia says not to worry, that she plans to divide everything equally among her sisters and Mama. Augie says not so fast. Does she really want Feo to end up with her mother’s share? He’s got a better idea, even though it may take a while. Sarita is all ears. So Augie explains that for now they’ll keep the will the way it is and that will help stop Gabi from manipulating them the way she has. At the same time they’ll give Mama a taste of her own medicine. In the long run, the important thing is to protect Gabi from Fernando. (Only a parent could love a child like that…) Now that she has nothing, it’s certain he’ll show his true colors. “What a coincidence that somebody tried to run her over, huh?” “—But that was an accident!” says Sofia. Augie says baloney! Sarita and Jimena ask if he really means that somebody tried killing Mama? Augie says yeah, “Fernando! Fernando! Who else!” Coming from Augie, this accusation leaves all three sisters muy impactadas. (Yes. Hope springs eternal in the Mudville of Mexico. http://benpac.blogspot.com/2007/10/theres-no-joy-in-mudville.html )

Feo, meanwhile, is planning ahead himself and races into his old room to get the cash and Libia’s medallion out of his safe so he can stash them somewhere else. He thinks back to the time Bernardo threatened to let the others know about him and how the argument led to Bernie falling off his horse and fatally hitting his head on a rock. “You are a fool, Bernardo. The best thing to come out of all this is that now the Reyes’ believe that you killed their parents without suspecting that their parents’ real murderer will be arriving in town real soon.”

A while later Juan makes another midnight visit to Sofia’s room. She tells him that she didn’t expect to see him there like that again. He says he’s always got the…er… urge to see her. The reason he’s there though, is to let her know that he went to see Padre Tadeo over what could be done about the social worker taking the little girls away from them. He wants her to know that if the social worker tries anything, he’ll kidnap the little girls himself to keep her from getting them. He’ll let Sofia know where and when she can find them so she can see them whenever she wants. He won’t let anyone dare to ever take her children from her again.

Sofia is so grateful that she tries to hug Juan, but he backs away and starts to leave, but then he gives in and comes back. He hugs her tightly. “How I wish I didn’t remember a thing, to be able to hug you, to touch you and to hold you like this!” He moves in for THE KISS, but as soon as he tries to kiss her the memories of his parents’ murder, the visions of the snake belt, and the ugly laughter as Juanjo is being shot in front of his face, all flood his brain and he stops cold. “I can’t! I can’t! Dammit all!! I can’t get this damned memory of the murder of my parents out of my mind! Forgive me, Sofia! Forgive me!” He races back out through the balcony. Sofia is literally left panting (as only a true melodrama queen like AN can), “My Love! My Love!”

Comments:
All this time, I've assumed that Coyote was only flirting to make Feo nervous (and to send Gabi a message that there are people who Feo fears... but I don't know if she's figured that out yet).

But I was wrong. I swear I saw real reverence in Coyote's eyes last night!! Did I imagine that? What else could it have been? (Indigestion?)
 

Julie: Really creeped me out. I've been wondering about Coyote myself. My hunch is either he's her long lost bastard son we've never heard about, or... more likely he's on a mission from El Jefe. Ever wonder why El Jefe kept out of sight for so long? I bet he's trying to get El Coyote to win over Gabi's confidence so that she'll spill the beans on Ricardo Uribe's murdering his sister and BIL because he suspects she's somehow always been involved in it. Just MHO.
 

Maybe you're right on both counts. There has to be some tie between Coyote and one of the families (Robles, Reyes, Elizondos, Acevedos, Uribes...).

And if Ricardo is such a tough guy, he and Jefe must have been either rivals or allies at some time... they're certainly not now.

And while we're wondering about stuff, there's still Feo's snake tattoo. The guy likes snakes and he wasn't a member of Uribe's snake belt gang... is the tattoo just a coincidence, or was he in a rival gang? He's not part of Jefe's gang, since Jefe doesn't like him.
 

Thanks for a great recap Cakes. Yes, why were there three men in the truck when one driver was enough to hit the pedal. And they still weren't successful. I guess everything comes in threes in Mexidoom.....Hermanos Reyes, Hermanas Elizpndo and las babies too. Sofia is the dumbest thing ever. Yeah, another Juan taking a bucket bath scene. He is so much better seen and not heard. Poor Coyote...seems his days are numbered. G in CA
 

Jardinera: Brilliant recap. I love your attention to details that I miss and your wit.
 

The guy with the sombrero and scythe was there right in the frame with of El Coyote so it seems he's a goner but maybe it will be a near miss, i hope. G in CA
 

Thanks for the excellent detailed straight foreward recap. All I can say is that Juan and Sofia deserve each other. Although Sofia has gotten on my last nerve, Juan is irritating nerves that I don't even have. Those 3 little girls deserve better treatment than they're getting from the 2 screwed up trios. I'm gonna be one of the first to should hallelujah when this poor excuse for a novela ends.
 

Thanks very much for the recap, Cakes.
A) three people in the hitt'n'run truck probably for the extra weight so her little body would bounce further. Wonder if they cut the third guy in on the money.
B) No, Coyote, nooooo, don't leave us! It's too soooooon....
C) What are the odds this novela will come out on DVD later?
"Creemelo"
 

G in CA, Pasofino: Thanks for stopping to read and glad you enjoyed it. I wondered if Death was there to make it clear that if he couldn't have Gabi he was going for El Coyote, or if he was just there to signal he'd missed his chance again. He's a greedy b@stard and we all know he's gotten more than his fair share the past year from Feo!!
=========
Anon. 7:28pm -- Don't know if you're a regular or not, but I will say that at times it's hard not to come across like an ADHS patient off their meds, but I try. ?8 > )
"Those 3 little girls deserve better treatment than they're getting from the 2 screwed up trios." We can only hope that at least Maria Libia inherited Augie's genes and that the other two are keen enough to follow her lead.
 

Creemelo: I knew you'd have an answer! LOL! I wondered if Feo's three stooges were smart enough to even ask for the cash up front. I also wonder if the third one got left as the fall guy when the other two skipped out. --As for Coyote, vicious as he's been in carrying out El Jefe's orders, he still does not deserve getting hooked up with the likes of Gabi!
 

Cakes--Maybe that's the punishment meted out by El Jefe if you irritate him: "Three Hail Marys and Kiss Gabriela's Hand."
:o}
"Creemelo"
 

I wonder if Juan will remember the "laugh" of the cinturion wearing asesino? Seems like he mentioned it a few times in the way back years.
 

Welcome, Teresita --Yeah. Juan will get the long awaited memory boost once he gets anywhere near Ricardo Uribe who will be overheard in a chance guffaw, but at this rate probably not until the last couple of episodios. It'll be a snore till then.
 

Thanks for the 'cap, Cakes...What puzzled me about the foiled flatten Crabi scene is that there were THREE guys in the cab of the truck, when Feo hired only the two that he'd used earlier, and only those two were blowing town on the outbound. Seems like the third was the bartender, but he's always been anti-Feo, so I could be wrong about that part of it. Regardless his identity, why would there be a third thug, unless it will be aplot feature soon; that is, he is around to be ID'd, or somehow spills the frijoles...i hope that Coyote isn't really attracted to Crabi, but I'm certain tht she will enlist him to do an evil to Feo...
 

Dorado dave: Yer welcome! I took another look at the video just for you. Julie is better at these details than I am, but I don't think any of them are either of the two bartenders, who were always tending bar when the bad stuff went down and too scared of their own shadows to involve themselves with any of Feo's funny stuff. Maybe somebody else has a better memory for the characters' faces than I do, though.
 

I didn't recognize the third guy (he could have been one of Feo's other thugs, sent along to babysit?), but you're right - weird enough to pay two guys to do a one-guy job, but then a third guy tags along? Is he getting paid??
 

Oh - Feo probably hired both of them in hopes of getting one or both thrown in jail for Gabi's "accident," and the third guy is probably still someone he trusts. The third guy will defend Feo when the other two say Feo put them up to it. He'll say they were drunk or something.

Probably not - just a harebrained idea I came up with.

Or maybe the third guy was going to murder the other two after the accident.

Dunno. I'm trying to find a way to make a plot point of it, but it's probably best not to ponder too deeply. :)
 

Julie, that is way to much linear thought for this show. Don't hurt yourself!
 

We're trying alot harder to make sense of this than the writers are.
"Creemelo"
 

For some odd reason we seem to care that things make sense, when in fact I believe the writers do not care at all. I am sure if they could find a real talking chiahuahua to hawk tacos, they would find a way to make the poor dog become a central character! Sophia would probably fall madly in love with him on site, while he plotted against her with her mother!
 

Molly: make that chihuahua a female taco-hawker and Mariachi will finally have a love interest for the fin, too.....
 

Julie --you may have stumbled onto something. The third stooge might be there to rat out the other two to Feo. He's partial to rats. He's one and tries to turn everybody else into a ratfink.
 

Yes, but where is Mariachi hanging out lately? He has been AWOL. I think they have been giving Capricho all his lines.
:o}
"Creemelo"
 

Creemelo: I think it's diSScrimination. Must be a case of species lookism. Capricho is a gorgeous equine species. Poor Mariachi is a Heinz 57 mutt.
?8>{
 

Since Feo's two henchmen fled town on the bus maybe they don't own cars/trucks and had to pay third guy and borrow third guy's car to flatten Crabi. Hence third guy driving his own car. You'd think third guy would give them a quick ride out of town to escape Feo's wrath for deed undone. Why am I wasting my limited brain power on trying to make any sense of this novela. G in CA
 

Poor puppy, his tummy is full of nasty Reyes pan and he is probably sleeping it off! They have to keep the poor thing tied up just stay on he set! Its not like he wants to hang around with all of them.
 

I don't understand why Sofia (and Juan) have to ADOPT the girls. One of them is their kid! I know they haven't heard of DNA testing, but Sofia says she knows which one it is, and that should be good enough for the authorities:)

Yes, I know, she feels sorry for the other two, but can't she just take hers home? She wouldn't even have to marry Juan, just agree on custody. I mean, when the girl was born, Juan and she weren't married, and she was married to Feo, so (except for the idea that everything has to be in threes), there really shouldn't be a problem.
 

Also, I noticed that Sarita seems to have a different pair of glasses EVERY DAY (maybe a little in joke on set). I also like her new hairstyle and outfits.
 

Hombre, I think you're on to something with everything in triplicate: the sisters, the brothers, the hitt'n'run killers, the babies, the nuns who now seem to be on permanent assignment to the hacienda.
Molly, I have a feeling the peon with the big sickle thing came for the original Mariachi...he used to be at Pablito's side always, at the end of that little twine leash. BTW, I will cry real glycerine tears if the foreshadowing of Death on Friday really was for El Coyote.
:o(
"Creemelo"
 

Hombre: I came to the same frustrating conclusion about Sofia's daughter. Maybe the laws are different in Mexico, not that that should matter one whit in Mexiloon. They seem to make it all up as they go along there. As for testing, my mind is going, but I think this was discussed somewhere on either this site or TN-W early on. When the original story was written and produced it was in the latter half of the 1940's. So of course no DNA testing, but somebody brought up there were blood-types to go by from the 1920's or so onward. From what I read though, these were only about 30% accurate and lots of so-called papas really weren't. So, the way this thing is written we're still probably going to be at Mama's mercy --man, now that's an oxymoronic phrase if there ever was one.....
 

Creemelo, Coyote is a pretty intelligent, savvy kind of guy. He probably has to die. I too will be very sad, but the decent people seem to check out on this show!

Okay except the crazy bag lady who screemed and threw stuff at really dim kid. She I don't miss. That was just creepy!
 

Maybe Crabi Gabi wasn't hit by the car because Death was tardy as he was busy on some other case and arrived too late on the scene. Hopefully, Coyote will be spared. G in CA
 

Molly and G in CA: Oh if only Coyote could be spared! Why do the "good" bad guys always have to die?
LOL remembering the crazy bag lady ...remember her riding along, leaning out of the jeep, shrieking and laughing drunkenly and waving a bottle of booze? Her, I can understand killing off. Coyote, not so much.
:o(
"Creemelo"
 

Thanks for the recap. You mean I missed a bucket bath!!! ;) Oh no. I seriously will have to watch my recording. They can't kill off Coyote. He's the only one that has a brain in his head. I'd like to see what happens if Gabi tried to slap Coyote. Hmmmmm
 

Connie - Here's a link (thanks to .Ara on the telenovela-world foros) to the bucket bath sequence. It's halfway thru this part:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWKFD1LZWes&feature=

CAKES - thanks for the recrap. The wedding (our son's --- it was wonderful, all went well, and a good time had by all) was this weekend and I didn't even bother to try to record this episodio. I barely have energy to read the posts here. I'll recover soon and be ready to snark along with the best of y'all.

doris
 

This was Cakes' request last week, which I'm copying here so people will remember. She wrote:

"It pains me to have to remind folks, but I am going to reiterate Melinama's request that at least on MY recap page there be no more political discussion, references, and/or ad hominem remarks because of a grouchy commenter's supposed, aka, ASSumed, POLITICAL beliefs. (We do know how ASSume breaks down, class? It makes an Ass out of U but it makes an Ass out of Me as well.) I do not appreciate people being hounded or harASSed because of them, especially viciously so. Legitimately debate them --but somewhere else, please.

Other recappers can do as they please and they and their commenters can express themselves however they wish until the cows come home on those recapped pages. Lord knows they've all got the talent to say it well and the wittier the better. That doesn't necessarily mean that somebody should let it fly simply because they can. Please remember that half of the audience here, whether lurkers, commenters or recappers, will be unnecessarily alienated--and YES, possibly unfairly judged--at any particular time whatever is said in that vein. Until there is a change disallowing the Bill of Rights, political free thought and expression still avoid suppression--but it does not exist at all here on my recap page because unless the comment is germane to the telenovela du jour it breaks the rules in oh so many ways. So those of you who want to edit your remarks accordingly, please do, because this one page is my refuge from all the crap that constantly hits the fan so far away from my protected little corner from which I naively communicate on my little computer with the rest of the worldwide web. =/ 8 ? } Thanks."
 

Thanks Doris for the link. It was a very short bucket bath unfortunately. Can you watch the whole show on YouTube? I'm not that familiar with it.
 

I watched this episode so carelessly that I missed the shadowy death threat to Coyote. Noooo, you idiot writers. Say it ain't so. If Coyote is eliminated, that leaves us with no one in the background to help save the good guys from their limited brains.
La Paloma
 

Doris, Connie and La Paloma: Thanks for stopping back by and glad to hear it was worthwhile.

Doris: I was thinking of you at that wedding. Just had one a few months ago for my daughter. You might want to let us see the beaming mother of the groom in that gorgeous dress you made yourself.

Connie: you have two sets in full of Capítulo 143 at this link. Enjoy!
