Fuego 12-11-2008 "He Glamoured Me"

I apologize ahead of time for this recap, I think maybe the scenes aren’t in order, but I believe Tio Elf glamoured me right in the beginning. (I learned from HBO’s TrueBlood that Vampires can look you in the eye and glamour you, which means you will let them suck your blood, take your money & forget what happened). I think maybe Elves can do the same, cause all I really remember with great detail is that Tio Elf outfit.

We review Juan’s conversation with his Elf like uncle. Seriously WTF is up with that heavily embroidered? Well either he has a gig as Santa’s helper or it is vacation time at Keebler. Anyway Tio Elf tells Juan, that Ber was no killer. He says Gabi was lying and after all who profited by the death of the Reyes parents? Jeez not us the viewing audience. Ahhhh Ricardo Uribe.

Next we see spurs on the hardwood, Yadda Yadda Yadda, Juan knocks Ric down, draws back his fist..Ric pulls out a pistol with a very long barrel, ah compensate much? Anyway he shoots the gun, he blows Juan’s head off. As if!!!! That would have been so great, Pablito would have been set for life. He is the only one who knows how to make the 7,000 calorie Sofie Pan. Soon like any good dealer he would have had fat patrons Jonesing for carbs & fat. The kid would have had it made.
However, Ricardo only shot the rafter. Loser. So Juan threatens him some more. Says he doesn’t believe Ricardo was the owner of the hacienda, no papers. So on so forth… Ricardo says Ber was happy to take the money in exchange for the land.

As Juan leaves Raquel enters, tells Ricardo that all hell will break loose. I guess having the crap smacked outta of her for thirty or forty years has not dimmed Raquel’s desire to get the last word in…just once.
Ricardo threatens Raquel a bit more.

Sofie is all Scarlett rebuilding Tara, she is going to put in a pump to bring the river water up to the fields of non-growing a freeking thing. She tells Fer that he must work or go to jail. He gets handed a giant scythe thing that he promptly puts up against a tree as he watches the rest of the common folk labor. Fer jumps up just in time to avoid having his life end due to the falling scythe. The ghost or angel or figment of Fer sexually frustrated brain, Ros swoops down to tell him that he is a murderer and he will pay. Fer is sweating big time. No puede ser, X fifty. Dude is having a seriously bad day.

Juan rides up and tries to talk to snotty Sofie who is in her wicked Lil House, leather coat outfit. She is now officially a businesswoman. He tells her that Ricardo Uribe says he paid Ber the bucks for the land.
Sofie just dismisses Juan cause she is Woman & she had a really cool leather coat and equally cool leather hat.

Root is lying on her bed, in one of Sofies ninas, white shirts, it must belong to one of the kids cause it sure doesn’t fit Root, she is wearing lowrider jeans with leather chaps and leather gloves. I guess she doesn’t want to leave finger prints as she strokes herself. Mostly she thinks how much she hates Sofie. I think a lot about how much I hate Sofie, but I am much more versatile than Root, I can hate Sofie, while I am vertical and fully dressed.

Gabi is standing in her room looking in a wardrobe, Sofie comes in and she slams the wardrobe door really quick. Maybe that is where she keeps her blow up doll, Reggie, he is so buff and loves her so much and never, evah talks back.

Sofie comes in and says Ricardo Uribe says he paid Ber for the land. Gabi says yes indeed this is the truth. Sofie is left to lick her lips and wander off with her pink eyes. Gabi drags out a picture and starts in thinking how Sofie must suffer, cry and suffer. As if? Where the hell has Gabi been thru this crapfest? Sofie has done nothing but suffer and whine. Anyway, Sofie must do this cause Ber was not her father, Ber was not her father (we get the lovely echo)
--Cut to break—

Okay We get the taunting…yadda yadda yadda, finally Gabi spits out…
Another was your father…Another
I guess Gabi didn’t know Another’s last name. It was just Otra.
---Yeah big dramatic moment there…like we really thought it would be revealed---

Okay Tio Elf comes by to see, Gabi.
Once she realizes he doesn’t have that weeks shipment of Club Crackers, she tells him to get out. He is all shades of Elfen pissed, there goes any chance bitch had for the pot of gold. He tells Gabi she is a liar, his brother JJRobles never loved her, didn’t even like her and thought she was a tranny. JJRobles was true to his wife and Ber never killed the couple, cause Ber too thought Gabi was a tranny and was too busy nailing Eva and scopeing out young babes to ever get jealous over Gabi. With that in your face, Tio Elf whirls on his little magic heels, (elfin curled toed boots with cowboy heels) and sets off for his Santa’s helper stint in Puebla’s ToysRUs. Gabi gets no respect.

Gramps & Santa are up in his room, gluing faces of dead folks in a scapbook & trying to do their best Sherlock Holmes to solves the many murders of Mexidoom. Gabi comes in and like a thirteen year old with a playboy, the book is slammed shut. Gabi acts like she doesn’t care, but of course she does. Instead she tells Santa to stay away from Fer. Now that is so sad when you are like sixty and you have to tell your future eighty year old stepmom to keep her paws off your forty year old husband.

Now for some comic relief, Quitana picks up one of the towngossip sisters for a ride in Quitana’s motorcycle taxi. This leads to hijinks as they arrive at the church and the lady’s hair is all messed up and she accuses Quitana of trying to kill her. Oh the hilarity.

Sofie wanders in to visit her three kids, who are basically locked up in that small room with the three rent a nuns & Eva. Sofie comes in to greet them like any good plantation owning female would as the children bond to their Mammies. Sofie dumps more gloom and doom on Eva who is such a willing scrapegoat. I would totally love to have an Eva.

Meanwhile Root decides to hate Sofie even more and goes into Sofie’s room to dig up anything that could screw Sofie over. I think this is a lame ass idea as we know Princess would have nothing bad or evil in her room. Root finds the Evil Snake belt.

Root takes it to Pa Snake. This is my belt he exclaims what was Sofie doing with it in her room? Hmmmm
He comes up with the idea of kicking the crap outta Raquel to find the answer.
Meanwhile Raquel while still wearing her Judy Garland glasses is talking to Gabi, Gabi has had enough Drama for one day and orders Raquel to take off the glasses, Raquel has the black eye. Ewwwww Gabi gets the story that Ricardo smacked her and guess what it isn’t the first time.

Root runs into to Ma and Gabi, Root says that Pa is pissed deluxe over the belt being stolen.
Gabi gets all huffy and says she will take care of it.

Raquel confronts sticky finger Fer over the belt. She says he swiped it while he was boinking her and now Ricardo was going to kill both of them. Jeez Fer is all sweaty and nasty and his day just keeps getting worse and worse.

Fer wanders into Gabi’s bedroom which I guess is his too. He calls out her name a couple of times, she is not there. Then he remembers that Root hates Sofie and Root is staying in his room.

Fer is now in his room, searching through the drawers. Root comes in she starts questioning Fer about taking a shower. I really don’t recall what was said, but he is shirtless and looks pretty good, after all he is glistening with the sweat of having the crap scared out of him by the ghost of Ros and doing labor with an extremely toxic hangover. For awhile it looks like Root and Fer are gonna play hide the salami, but Fer’s very, very bad day continues and yet another woman leaves him high and dry.

Meanwhile the three hornster females that live with Don Clemente are talking about hookin up with the Reyes boys. JuliAnna finds Sofie and tries to talk to her about Juan. Of course Sofie is all, oh he is free so don’t talk to me about it. JuliAnna keeps trying to talk to Sofie, Sofie continues with her holier than thou, act until JuliAnna finally faints. Yeah nice to know you just made a dying person spend twenty minutes of their remaining life trying to talk to you, while you refused. Yeah Sofie real nice, I guess it is fair to say Sofie didn’t know JuliAnna was dying, of course it is also fair to say JuliAnna didn’t know Sofie was such a Douche.

Next scene Sofie is doing her best concerned good person look to Don Clemente. He tells her JuliAnna is very ill. Gee, if Sofie would have known that she was probably would have trimmed five minutes off the torture time. Doc Worthless comes down to say JuliAnna is not long for this world and she wants to see Juan.
Juan is baking when Sofie comes into the kitchen, of course he lights up, thinking she has come to see him. She only relays the message that JuliAnna has one foot in the grave and the other is slipping.

Juan goes to see JuliAnna and she asks him if she is sick? Is this not just the worst story line? Jeez is she gonna be surprised when she dies, I hope she hasn’t made any long term plans. Juan skirts the issue and tries to put her in a better mood. She says she would like a Seranata, which I guess means she wants the boys to come over and sing. Although if Franco is not available perhaps Ava Maria at her funeral would suffice.

Gabi enters the Cabana & tells Ricardo that Ber had a snake belt. No way, mine was unique. Gabi laughs it off. They speak of the RoblesReyes murder and that makes Gabi think of other festive times past. Gabi goes on a snake hunt and next thing you know, she and Ric are bumping buckles and it is only a matter of moments before the snake is freed from his cage.

Okay I remember nothing about what is coming up…
I think a lot of this is out of order, but damn nothing ever happens, it is the same over and over and over…except that whole elf thing which really threw me. I must comment again, that was the most bizarre twinkle toed costume I have seen in a long while.

Thank you for the recrap, beckster. Lots of great snark in there. LOL

Ol' Tio did look like an elf! BuaHahahahahaha

Raqi's sunglasses remind me of Elvis sunglasses. Those souvenir ones you can buy at Graceland.

I guess if Gabi told Ricky that Fer has a snake belt, she's setting up ol' Fer to be taken out by Ric. yikes.

doris
 

Thanks for your hilarious recap, Beckster. Almost makes me wish I could watch this painful turkey. Maybe if they gave Juan a few more brain cells, and Sofia wouldn't cry so much and Quintana .... oh, never mind.

Loved "...she is wearing ... with leather chaps and leather gloves. I guess she doesn't want to leave finger prints as she strokes herself." Too funny.

Prinny
 

After all this, how much ya wanna bet that Daddy was the gardener.

Elf? I thought he was a leprechaun. Maybe the wind blew him across the ocean.

No time to read the rest of the recap now, unfortunately... :( later!
 

Beckster, You are at your snarkiest this morning! Thank you for the recap. Do they have a Wilson's Leather store in Mexiloon? I guess when you wear leather there it means you are either an evil scumbag or you are in charge. Tio elf shouldn't be allowed to go out in an outfiit like that. They don't really wear stuff like that in Mexico do they?
 

Yikes, Beckster....I'm going be thinking of that image of Gabi with blowup doll in her closet all day.....and smiling.

Please make arrangemens to donate your brain to science when the day comes...it's a strange and wonderful thing!

Thanks for starting my day off right (or wrong) whatever, for making me laugh uproariously.
 

JudyB - I know ... the blow-up doll gives a bad mental image..... like Denny Crain and his Shirley Schmidt doll. Eeewwwww.

doris
 

Beckster: Thanks for the recap

I thought there was something wrong with the color on my TV when tio Vicente rode in wearing that green thing. Is it his own suit? Should it only be worn on a big stage when the audience is miles away? Didn't he have a clause in his contract allowing him to pick his own wardrobe. What a nightmare in green.

I also noticed that in tio's scenes with Juan, Juan was sitting down. It would have been the giant and the little green dwarf if he had stood up.

Ric and Gabi. Now there's an interesting combo. He told her that she had told him there was only one belt like the snake belt and that she was lying about giving one to Ber, too. They've got each other's number. Oh, help.
 

Bwahahahaha...

This was great; from the elf thing to Reggie to snakes coming out of their cages, I laughed a lot. No one explains it like you do...

So Sofia is supposed to be Scarlett? (notice the alliteration) I would have definitely pinned her as Melanie, except uglier, bitchier, and more confused; basically Aunt Pittypat on slim fast. Suddenly I see how FELS used GWTW as their flag ship...not a good idea...
 

Okay...first the blowup doll....now Aunt Pittypat on Slimfast! I'm going to be laughing to myself all day and someone's going to call the squad. Where's my medication?
 

Those nuns really bother me. They don't even explain their presence. Do those children ever go out and play? Lying in bed all day having nuns wait on you for your every need is just...Wait a minute...Hmmm, not a bad idea but make it Juan and Coyote waiting on me for my every need. :P
 

Bernado, Fernando, Ricky, and others yet to be revealed. Who'd have thought Gabi would be the "hotest" one on the show?

Your recap was great and so much fun to read Beckster. Diana in MA
 

Where is Coyote? Is he on vacation. For awhile there it seemed like he was always lurking nearby. Is he intimidated by Ricardo? Ruth? Where is he when we need him? Carlos
 

Thanks, Beckster. Two thoughts : 1] I'm so glad that Root was wearing something under those chaps. 2] How did Sofia manage to get Hoss Cartwright's hat ? [She did look good in it though.]
 

Diana, I find Gabriela charming, but please, Ruth gives a whole new meaning to hot. Carlos
 

Super recap! Loved the one about the 60 year woman worried about her 80 year old future suegra and her 40 year old husband.

Not that it was important in any way, but there was also a scene of Quintina taking Roman (one of the two guys vying for Jimena and Sarita's attention) for a ride, and Roman loved it, said it was like an amusement park ride. And he's played by Sergio Mayer, who was Luigi in LFMB.

Hope to see more of Elena, the blonde who likes Oscar. She's not giving up, despite the fact that Oscar's married with 4 kids!
 

Hombre~~~Thanks, I thought Roman had also been on Fea. He looked familiar.
 

I thought he was familiar too, and was pretty mad at myself when I saw his name in the credits - how could I not recognize Luigi?? Must be the mustache and that whole liking-girls thing.

I was thinking last night that Oscar and Jimena wouldn't have to constantly tell each others' dates about their four kids if they'd actually take the kids out once in a while.
 

Will someone please post this with the others? Muchas gracias!
 

It's now posted. Thanks for reminding us.
 

I always miss Sergio Mayer too, I don't know why cause he is really built, but when I see him I always think he is a really skinny guy. He is pretty short too and I never think he is until I see him again.

Tio Elf is the oldest son of Vicente Fernandez & older brother of Aljandro Fernandez. Perhaps their is an Elves on Ice show over in Puebla and he just stopped by.
 

Funny recap Beckster. Also funny how Tio Elf appears all of a sudden...where was he when Juan floated away to the Amazon and they needed help in finding him? Also where was Tio Elf for most of the Reyes bros life? Couldn't find them because they moved ten feet away? GinCA
 

By the way, I'm not Gilbert. Didn't know my hubby had an account. G starts my last name. GinCA
 

Beckster, I loved the entire recrap, but especially the Tio Elf stuff. I'm now thinking of Sofia and Ruth as the "leatha" twins. Stella, a designer on the last Project Runway, was heavy into leather and made clothes like Ruth would wear.
I was away from the public access computers while I had a little surgery and a little recovery. I have been watching, but missed the recaps and comments. The main things I noticed over the past 10 days or so:
Sofia has abandoned the whining, childish, "mi hija" persona and moved onto a leather-clad, no-nonsense, administrator persona.
Juan is now (or still?) the main stud of the neighborhood, with multiple hotties seeking his services.
And every TN cast member ever is signing on for a cameo role. Witness Sergio Mayer (Luigi) as one of the new suitors.
Tio Elf's outfit was hilarious, but I'm still blown away by Ricardo Uribe's snake jacket, with the actual snake skin and snake head appliques on the sleeves and shoulders.

Great recap, Beckster!

A really funny moment for me was when the three Reyes dunces, plus Tio Elf, say they've got to get busy and work on the land to make this the best hacienda in the region. And they appear to be firing up the tractor and beginning to work in those $800 charro costumes they're wearing (just a guess, it could be more!)
 

I turned this on for just a moment, but Sofia was on screen so I had to turn it off. She was talking to a guy with an outrageous amount of tall, bouffy, silvery hair, was that Sr. Elf? Thanks for the recap, I sure need the distraction from the problems of Real Life!!!!
 

Beckster, thank you! That was awesome. Gabi and Tranny, Sophie a Douche, everyone at work wanted to know what on earth was cracking me up!

When Sophia was standing on the range in her leather my first thought was Hacienda Barbie!

Feo really is having a bad day, and to top it off, Ruth gets him all hot and walks! Ha! He so deserves it.

Thought is was interesting that what scares the crap out of Raq gets Gabi all hot. What a piece of work she is!

Beckster: Thanks for the hilarious recrap. Sometimes I have to let my ancient dog out for a pee, right when something important happens. So thanks for the save.
Melinama: the tall silver pouf-haired guy isn't Tio Elf, that's the banker with the daughter who is dying to nail Juan, and also, just plain dying.
:o(
"Creemelo"
 

I'm getting into this rather late and one things keeps bothering me. What's with the weird chin straps?
 

Hi Sybil...I'm not for sure, but I think it's supposed to be a macho thing for guys who live on the edge, sort of dangerous, as compared with the sissy under-your-chin look.
"Creemelo"
 

I usually just read and enjoy everyones comments because they pretty much cover it all but this just cant go without saying. Beckster, you are priceless.

I just cant imagine that Tio Vicentes costume can ever be worn again. So what happens to it? And the matching sombrero, WTF!!!

LL in LA
 

Once again great recap
 

About the chin strap...That is dangerous...My goodness...You're hat could fall off while you're ...I don't know...riding your horse or climbing up a balcony or punching someone in the face. On Dona Barbara , one of the characters is named Mr. Danger. Maybe we could start calling Juan ...Senor Danger. Today's word verification : fable....That pretty much describes this show.
 

La Paloma~~~You are so right about Stella from Project Runway being a perfect stylist for Root's leather obsession. Stella and Root would make quite a pair.
 

Can anyone tell me what episode in youtube, I can find Friday nites show. I taped it and when it got to the part where root and crabbie are talking, the tape stopped. I think crabbie was going to tell her who her mom is. Ret
