Tontas - Thursday 1/22 - And Lord help the sister who comes between me and my man!
(I couldn't seem to get the song "Sisters" out of my head while recapping tonight. Who remembers it?)
Alicia spies Candy outside her building. "No puede ser!" She follows her inside and watches at which floor her elevator stops.
Up on the third floor Santi and Eduardo wash their hands before surgery. Ed wants Santi to spill his guts, what's he feeling inside now that he's engaged? Santi says he's bedded lots of dames but he never wakes up with them. However, Rocio needs a mama and maybe it's time to wake up with someone. Ed asks what about Candy, is she history? Santi believes Candy will eventually reconcile with her husband. This is news to Ed, is she divorced? "No, she died and her husband's a widower." Ed is perplexed.
Isabel conducts a rather lame sex talk with Lucia. She says Lucia is too young to do "it" but not too young to know about "it". Isa says most young women don't know diddly about using a condom so please never, ever do "it" without protection.
Santi visits Chayo at the institute and he's got good news. He finally convinced Lalo to let him operate on her bubis!! He's so very pleased with himself but she...not so much. "What will I do?" she asks herself.
Pato is diagramming futbol plays for his young team when Beto arrives and brags to them all that the coach is his papa! Hooray!! Soledad looks on and projects a simpering smile over the group.
Charly and Lucia climb a tree. He's suspicious of his dad, when dad said he left mom for another person he specifically did not say a woman. He had a homosexual friend in Mexico City who said the same sort of thing. Charly shakes his head.
Back at the futbol pitch Pato tells his little champions how well they are playing. Chava asks if they're playing so well then why are they losing? When Pato says the most important thing is to have fun Chava comments that's exactly what his mama says. Pato tells Chava to stop talking about his imaginary mama, it's not "sexy". (Ooh I want to slap him when he says that overused phrase. Let's throw him in the net and use him for goal practice.)
Post operation Santi and Lalo are still talking women. Santi isn't interested in women who are too easy, he likes the conquest, like a panther! He loves the adrenaline and darn it he wishes Candy would walk through his door right now, she always puts him in a good mood. Well, not always, not when she knees him in the nuts and calls him the plastic doctor which is 90% of the time. But 10% of the time she really puts him in a good mood. He decides to go look for her.
After Beto scores a goal and the little tykes win, Chava asks Pato why mustn't he talk about his mama? He becomes impatient at the silliness of this adult and asks Soledad to please please tell Pato he has a mama and she's Soledad's friend. Tell him!
Marissa catches Santi looking for Candy and he covers by saying he wanted the feminine perspective on the Lucia/Charly dilemma. Santi is aghast at the thought that Lucia and Charly may already have done "it". Does Marissa think they have? She keeps trying to kiss him and every time she does he pulls back and yells "short circuit!!!" because his pea brain can only cope with Lucia and Charly right now, he must get back to his patients, adios!
When Marissa comes home she hears Charly downstairs talking on his phone to someone and hears him say "I miss you too". Charly is talking to his mother but Marissa the Metiche (buttinsky) assumes the worst and immediately dashes up to Lucia's room to ruin her day. She heard Charly telling someone he missed them and who else could it be but his other girlfriend? (That does it, Marissa goes in the net too.)
Pato and Sole bring the boys home and when the adults are alone Pato says, "now you're going to explain to me how you are the friend of Chava's mom." Soledad tells Pato that yes, she is the mama's friend and she lied to protect a secret. If Pato promises not to tell anyone she'll share it with him...
Commercial for Mañana is Para Siempre and we get a rather hot bod shot of none other than Sergio Sendel. Muy pronto!!
Whoa, I totally forgot about Alicia. Apparently it's taken her all day to make it up to the third floor and to the Institute. She lurks at the door and listens to Lulu chatter on about Meño; she uses Candy's name in every other sentence so there is no doubt it's Candy Candy Candy. Candy advises Lulu that Meño isn't the man for her but does she explain why? No, she just walks out of the office prompting Alicia to dash for cover.
Charly, rose in hand, is still downstairs at the rich house waiting for Lucia, she's never kept him waiting for so long. Marissa finally comes town with a message for him, Lucia doesn't want to see him.
Soledad makes up a ridiculous story that Chava's mom is a fugitive from justice, an escaped prisoner who was forced to kill Chava's father because he abused and beat her. Meño is hiding Candida and they are all keeping her secret. It's just a coincidence that she has the same name as Pato's first wife. Pato rubs his chin and mutters "Candida".
Alicia follows Candy around town and is almost spotted by Candy, what suspense, yawn.
Santiago goes to the chapel, says hello to his namesake (tocayito) Saint James, but he's really there to talk to Saint Jude (patron saint of lost causes) who was a sinner but also a good liar. It's not too bad of a sin to tell a lie for love, is it? He explains to Saint Jude that he loves Candy with all his heart but Marissa is entrenched in the middle of his life. Rocio sees her like a mom which doesn't help. He asks Saint Jude to join forces with his namesake over there so they can help clear his mind he can make the best decisions.
Candy and her mommy dearest are in the mercado buying a hideous piñata and expensive grapes. Alicia, verifying that Candy is alive and mama is a part of the perfidy, cries and starts to call Patricio. She changes her mind and takes a few closeups of Candy so that the pics might be discovered at an inopportune time later on in the show.
In the grand telenovela tradition of non-communication Lucia sobs in her room while Charly rants, both wailing "how could you treat me so horribly?" Rocio comes into the bedroom and asks Lucia why is she crying? She sweetly loans her own crying dolly to Lucia.
Charly climbs a telephone pole and yells for Lucia. He only wants Lucia! Luciaaaaaa!
It seems the saints have given him an idea because Santiago visits Candy at the institute for a cure, he has a pain in his heart. She thinks he's there to make fun of them but he swears it's because he feels bad. In the privacy of her office she yells "It's a miracle" that the plastic doctor is there for her help. The eavesdropping staff busts through the door.
Rocio is upset about Lucia so Marissa takes her for a walk in the park to calm her down and pollute her mind with lies. She explains Charly's not a bad person but perhaps he's not a person that can be trusted. Lots of people are like that, people who resent the happy lives of others and who want to hurt others, Candy for example. (Marissa for example.) Remember when Candy kissed Santi in the theatre? Wouldn't it be terrible if Candy were to win Santi then Marissa and Rocio couldn't be together, eh? Marissa thinks she and Rocio should be on the same side and get rid of Candy. A confused Rocio agrees except that Candy is the mama of her friend Chava. Marissa tells her that's why they have to keep their little plan a secret. They high five it.
Alicia is back home uploading the photos of Candy onto her computer. Pato comes home and wants to see her pics but but she says they are private with a capital P. He thinks the P stands for Porno ha ha and if she needs him she can call him. Oh right, like any guy finding a sex bomb like Alicia peeking at porno would actually leave the room? Doubtful.
Candy's got the cure for Santi, she prescribes a therapy session with Babs, massages with Chayo, a dance lesson with Meño, sign here please and welcome to the institute of inner beauty.
Alicia invites her new (and only) girlfriend Marissa over for a tequila and to tell her that she saw her "dead" sister at Marissa's institute so she must be one of her clients. She tells Mari her version of the story, that Pato married her sister but on his wedding day he confessed to Alicia that he was still in love with her (Alicia) but he'd already married her sister. She did what any woman would do, she kissed him and they were caught by her reckless sister. Clearly sis lied about being dead and lied to all of them. Marissa asks will she tell Patricio? Alicia thinks not, he hates ghosts.
Funny music plays so we knows some comedy scenes are coming up. Barbara is giving Santiago his psych session and she tells him to punch the pillow, it'll make him feel better to release his frustrations. She holds the pillow for him and he punches it...right in her stomach. (Serves her right.) Then it's massage time and he doesn't want Chayo, wife of his friend, to touch him. It's a stupid scene so let's move on.
Time for the dance lesson with Meño and it's basically a vehicle for Santi to shake his bootie and act like a goofball. So yes, definitely worth watching. I'm not the only one who enjoyed his little exhibition. The ladies of institute admire him from the doorway and Barb comments he was spectacular, he really worked his muscles well. "I go to the gym," he explains. She didn't mean his biceps, she meant his glutes. Indeed.
Soledad comes to the institute to tell Candy and Meño about the bullcrap story she had to tell Pato to get him off the Candy scent. Candy's proposed solution? Move far away before she runs into Patricio. What a surprise.
Mean Marissa comes to Santi's office to tell him that Lucia is suffering from hearbreak but it's not serious. Santi wants to run right home to comfort his daughter but Rocio scampers in with a surprise for dad. It's a drawing of the family, dad, grandma, Marissa, Lu, Rocio, and off to the side is Candy scribbled out because Rocio doesn't want her for a mama. Marissa, thrilled, feigns shock while Santi looks downcast.
Meño tells Candy that running away solves nothing. He wants her to visualize standing in front of that louse Patricio, what would happen, what would she say? Candy daydreams that Patricio demands to take Chava away from her so she suggests he practice parachuting or learning to fly. She pushes him off the top of a building and he smashes onto a car below, then looks up and waves at her. "Uh, I'd better not run into him," she tells Meño.
Jaime and Isabel are out for a romantic stroll and he suggests they take a little trip to Puerto Vallarta. She asks will she have a room for herself? Jaime says of course, it will be for her...and him.
Santi goes to Candy's office and says he has to talk to her. Blah blah blah what he really came to say is this...he closes in for a kiss and stops an inch away from her lips. He can't, he feels too guilty. She thinks it's a miracle, he's cured, he finally feels guilty about Marissa. Not quite, he feels guilty about Patricio.
Candy can't believe it. Are he and Pato friends? Santi shrugs, "well...more like in the process of becoming friends." (En vias de serlo= in the process of becoming) Candy reasons that he feels guilty about Pato who might be his friend, she doesn't want to feel guilty about Marissa who is her friend, therefore they should make a pact that they won't interfere in each others' lives. He on his side and she on hers, agreed? They shake hands and Santi crosses his fingers behind his back. So does Candy.
Alicia confronts her mother and calls her a liar and traitor. Mama denies it until Alicia shows her the pictures on her phone. Mama kindly tells Alicia that Patricio always loved Candy and furthermore she'll lose her husband because her marriage isn't valid if Candy is alive. Alicia pitches a fit and says that Mama may have found one daughter but she lost the other, she doesn't want to see her again. Mom says Alicia should be grateful, grateful that Mom didn't tell Patricio. Al says fine, she won't tell Patricio if Mom doesn't tell Candy she knows, that way they're equal, both liars.
At the big house Isabel tells her family she's thinking about visiting Puerto Vallarta...with Jaime. Santi gets all silly and blabbery, points out that Jaime is a man, and says they'll talk about it tomorrow. Rocio observes to Isabel that papa is a bit distracted because she already knew Jaime was a man.
Over at Casa Meño the family notices Charly's not eating anything. Candy goes off to comfort him and Granny gets rid of the kid so she can tell Meño that Alicia knows Candy is alive but she promised Al she wouldn't tell Candy, what should she do?
Candy comes back and tells Meño that Charly has love problems. Meño's suggestion that perhaps Lucia went back to an old boyfriend doesn't make Charly feel better. Thanks dad.
Santi (with Marissa clinging to him like a remora) knocks on Lucia's door and wants to know what happened. Lu sobs that Charly has another girlfriend. Santi wonders who told her such a thing? Marissa says it was she, she heard Charly telling someone he missed them a lot. Santi whispers loudly that Charly could be saying those words to anyone, a mother, grandmother, aunt, the lady who changed his diapers in kindergarten, for the love of God! Mari accuses him of taking Charly's side. No no no, Santi is taking the side of all men who aren't allowed to explain themselves! Lu opens her door and asks could there be a confusion? Santi tells her she should give Charly a chance to explain himself. Lu hugs Santi but when Mean Marissa moves forward with open arms Lu shuts the door in her face. Good!
Candy visits Charly in his room and wants to tell him two things. First, it's a lie that men don't cry. Second Lu should tell him to his face why she doesn't want to be with him. This from the runaway bride.
Meño tells Gregoria that he has never lied to Candy and he's not about to start now. He stands up and Gregoria panics. Meño plans to tell Candy the truth that Alicia knows she's alive. "No Meño No!!!"
Mañana: Patricio goes to the birthday party and Candy is dressed like a clown. Oh dear, will he recognize her?
Alicia spies Candy outside her building. "No puede ser!" She follows her inside and watches at which floor her elevator stops.
Up on the third floor Santi and Eduardo wash their hands before surgery. Ed wants Santi to spill his guts, what's he feeling inside now that he's engaged? Santi says he's bedded lots of dames but he never wakes up with them. However, Rocio needs a mama and maybe it's time to wake up with someone. Ed asks what about Candy, is she history?

Quick note tonight; more in the morning.
Mark this day on your calendars, folks!! A physical acting challenge that Jaime Camil does poorly! Yes, you heard me. He can slide a 6-foot table. He can leap a room divider in a single bound. He can say "I'm king of the whole world!" just by the way he sits in a chair (#276). But there's something he can't do! He can't dance badly!
In the dance lesson, he was at first supposed look like he couldn't dance. Instead, he looked like a dancer trying to dance poorly.

Sylvia...I'm going to read your recap after breakfast but let me say right off...of course I remember the song Sisters. And Bette Midler did a great remake of it (and lots of other Rosemary Clooney songs) in an album she did with Barry Manilow. I'll be humming it all day, querida...thanks.
My goodness, reading your recap I felt like we were watching last night's episode with the same pair of eyes.
Yes, totally annoyed with that "no es sexy" one size fits all statment of Pato's.
Lame sex talk...I agree... and I even found it offensive. One could certainly address the feelings and yearnings of young people in love as well as giving counsel and caution about the consequences. My husband's father's advice when he and his brothers were teenagers was "Keep your pants zipped." Period. Nothing more was said. A little inadequate in my opinion.
My favorite line?...."It's a stupid scene so let's move on".
However I've come to think a little more kindly of Tontas after reading the recaps of Cuidado. There is such AWFUL stuff going on there, unbearable. At least Tontas, for the moment, is just annoying.
The Marissa gambit with Lucia was strange. Did Marissa set this up as a way to be a ministering angel to Lucia's sorrow? Was it an honest mistake? Or just random maliciousness? Or inveterate distrust of all men? Puzzling and unpleasant scene. Thank goodness Santiago came to the rescue.
Scene with Rocio was clearly malicious and desperate...Marissa knows she's standing on shifting sand and one tiny part of me feels sorry for her; but I think the shadow side of her character will be shown more and more and gradually we'll all totally hate her and be rooting for the still annoying, but less evil Candy.
And with that run-on sentence I'll conclude! Thanks Sylvia....

Cap'n Sylvia: Excellent recap and perfect title. Of course I remember Sisters!
I paticularly enjoyed your take on the newly forming friendships: "Alicia invites her new (and only) girlfriend Marissa"... and "Candy can't believe it. Are he (Santi) and Pato friends? Santi shrugs, "well...more like in the process of becoming friends." (En vias de serlo= in the process of becoming)..."
The truth(s) are starting to be revealed. Glad Meño isn't buying into keeping the secret Alicia knows Candy is alive, he "tells Gregoria that he has never lied to Candy and he's not about to start now."
I hate some of the things Marissa has done but I don't hate her. I reserve that for Crabi in Fuego and Stefi in Angel :) Diana in MA

Santi shrugs, "well...more like in the process of becoming friends." (En vias de serlo= in the process of becoming)..."
The truth(s) are starting to be revealed. Glad Meño isn't buying into keeping the secret Alicia knows Candy is alive, he "tells Gregoria that he has never lied to Candy and he's not about to start now."

Thanks Sylvia. I'm trying to frame the problem as: the stupider these people act, the longer I get to look at Jaime's beautiful face. If they were all sensible the novela would be over already and we would have some other one next in which there is murder as well as lying. And maybe some awful leading man we would all hate. So I will enjoy looking at Santiago (Patricio isn't bad either) and try to ignore the plot idiocy.
Too right, this was a typically dumb episode, however Jaime Camil positively sparkled. I think this was one of his best. I thought he was adorable while telling Lalo how Candy put him in a good mood, sweet and endearing when gathering the saints to help him, and goofily sexy while taking his dance lesson. The guy is an absolute master at physical comedy and his character's relentless optimism keeps me coming back for more.
Marissa and Lucia, I think Marissa is trying so hard to be a "mother" that she is doing everything wrong. Instead of stepping back and giving space she just flew in spouting off the first drek that came into her head. Compare this with Candy who in an earlier episode told Lucia she didn't want to butt in but was available to talk as a friend. Marissa and Rocio...I think that was Marissa's bad heart taking over. I don't know, she just keeps getting worse and worse. However Santi has to get some blame for this as he refuses to dump her. Talk about mixed messages.

Excellent recap.
I thought the scene where Charly talked about his gay friend in the D.F. was interesting...it gave some background for his homophobia. As I understood it, One of his friends was gay and hit on him (maybe he hadn't previously known the friend was gay, either), and he didn't know how to deal with the situation and it was very awkward, and now he's just really uncomfortable with the whole topic. Obviously he still needs to learn some tolerance and manners, especially regarding his dad, but I thought this would be a fairly realistic reaction for someone his age.
It's scenes like the dancing that keep me watching this show. I had to rewind that part a few times. He looks like he's having so much fun.

Last night Patricio called Alicia a pig(cochina). Is this an appropriate term of endearment in Mexico? I wanted to check this out before I use it with my Spanish tutor. I'm beginning to suspect that Patricio may not be the best role model. Carlos
Carlos, I thought Pato just called her that because he thought she was looking at porn. He said it in a light, teasing way, but I doubt that it's actually any kind of term of endearment.
JC did look like he was having fun in the dance scene but surely not as much as those of us who were watching.
Marissa's true colors came out, if we had any doubt, in the cruel little scene with Rocio. I think the running to tell Lucia about Charly's other girl was not as deliberate but it was unnecessary.
Typical Pat to revert to the old 'it isn't sexy. He apparently has sex on the brain even with the kids. Even if it wasn't sexy how inappropriate to say it in front of kids. I'm surprised they didn't ask him what he meant. Now explaining that would have been a fun scene to watch. LOL Hilarious the comment about the sex bomb Ali and watching porn. I've seen a couple of pictures of Eva Mendes lately and she and Fabiola looking strikingly similar to me.
I thought it was interesting that Mari and Ali had the little heart to heart and Ali never mentioned Candy by name. Mari wasn't really overly interested but had Ali mentioned Candy she would have had a new ally in her effort to get rid of Candy.
Jeeze who knew St. Simpering Soledad was such a good liar. She spun that whole tale to Pat with utter conviction but then had to run to Candy and Meno to fill them in. I like the fact that Meno told Gregoria that he never lied to Candy and he wasn't going to start now. It might be nice if she knew that Alicia knows the truth.
Gregoria is certainly self centered. She doesn't care which of her girls gets hurt as long as one of them latches on to Pat and his money. First she wanted Candy to stick it out after the wedding reveal and then when that fell apart and Ali married him she told her to fight to hang on to her marriage, now she's all your marriage is not legal and Pat loves your sister. She should pick one side and ride it
out.
Interesting analysis of Charly's homophobia and it makes sense. He wouldn't have gotten any help from his mother so he is reacting from fear and ignorance. It will be interesting going forward to see how he handles things if he ever finds out the truth.

Thanks, Sylvia, for a great recap, including some good vocab (tocayito was new for me).
Just like everyone else, I'm getting a little upset with Marissa, but at least she got payback for her thoughtlessness concerning Charly and Lucía.
And Candy may be good with children, having given good advice to Chava, Lucía and Charly, but she doesn't do as well in her relationships with adults (she seems to use them a bit). I wasn't at all amused by her idea to treat Santi's confusion with a standard Institute regimen. Bárbara's pillow thing, Chayo's massage and Meño's dance lesson didn't seem to do much more than lighten Santi's wallet (and give the ladies some eye candy).
So, as a guy wanting eye candy, I'm glad Alicia is looking hot as ever, and so far, I'm sympathizing with her. Of course, being a baddie, she's bound to try some evil scheme to hurt Candy, so we'll see how long I can remain her fan.

Carlos...ROTFL...I've always wondered if people slapped each other in real life as often as they do in these telenovelas. It you call your tutor "Cochina" you might find out!
Glad to know, from the FELS line that Bonnie Bell is doing well and has a vet student waiting on her hand and foot as she deserves.

Thank you, Sylvia. Good work getting it all explained out.
It's hard to tell Marissa's motive, reporting to Luc about Charly. She obviously didn't believe he was two-timing her, considering how the emphasis changed when she retold the story to Santi. Maybe her motive was general mayhem, and maybe she wanted Luc to fall apart so she could be the caring, compassionate friend/hero. Like with Rocío's dog.
So much of the story last night seemed half-hearted. It was as if there was very important stuff going on, but as if everyone was too stoned to care very much (except Charly and Luc). When Santi talked to the saints, or when he told Candy that he can't kiss her, or when Ali found out that her sister is alive and all the dangers that poses to her marriage, or when Jaime wanted to take Isabel for a PV weekend and she was disturbed by the idea. It's like I feel when I get nitrus (sp?) for teeth-cleaning - "this is probably significant, but who cares?"

Great recap, loved the same things, like, "stupid scene move on" too.
I'll say though that the not wanting one of your best friend's wives to touch you (even professionally like that) is very realistic though. That would be taboo in the machista world, especially considering how opposed Lalo is to his wife's working in the first place, so that made sense to me. I mean this is the same world that has extreme low survival rates for breast cancer and similar female inflictions because some segments of male populations don't want their wives being touched by other men, even if they are doctors so they don't get treatment - go figure. Sad but true.
I watched this intermittently so missed a few details, but my take on the Mari meddling was that she thought she was doing Santi a favor and herself by breaking the two teens up, and making him not have to worry about Lu anymore, so then he wouldn't "short circuit" distractedly while trying to kiss her.
I somehow missed out on recalling specifically the "sisters" song, but I did love the video and your idea to include that and I love the Andrews sisters for sure!
By the way, how long did this take you? Looks like yet another full packed epi, the dancing was priceless though. If I were acting on that show, I'd totally want to peek in on him. I'm sure they loved that!!!

Thanks for another stellar recap Syliva and for the “sisters” clip. It was a hoot! My only experience with is what on “Mad About You” a few years back when Jamie and her sister (can’t remember her name) did it at their father’s urging ‘cause they’d done it as kids. I especially loved the list of folks that go in the goal net ;)
Poor Chayo is learning the meaning of “be careful what you wish for.” Hope she has the guts to say “never mind.” Hopefully this won’t give Ed more ammo for telling her she only wants foolishness.
Julia, I was right there with you on the scene about Charly’s “friend.” He had mentioned in the past that he hated gays because he had this great friend, but it all changed when he found out the friend was gay. Now we hear that he always talked about liking “someone” but not that this someone was Charlie. It also isn’t clear how aggressive his friend was about it. I had a bisexual friend whose first gay encounter was essentially date rape at the age of 15 by an 18-year-old whom he idolized. Obviously this is not typical gay behavior, but it can certainly color your perspective, especially at such a young age. Maybe once Charlie sees gays in a positive light he will see that he was wrong and not all of them are like his friend.
I also wish Candy would have elaborated on why Meño was not the man for Lulu. Poor thing will probably think Candy doesn’t think she’s good enough and lead to even more grief and confusion. In Candy’s defense (and there is little to defend here) she’s probably trying to protect the “not so secret” secret because of Charlie, and she’s in a hurry to get stuff for Beto’s party, but I still think she should have told the truth, for a change.
I think it was Julie or Julia who suggested it would be great if Candy runs into Pato looking not so great. Looks like we might get that wish tonight!
My guess is that Marissa honestly believed that Charlie was cheating on Lucia and thought this would be great as they could break up and leave Santi’s mind at ease. You’d think she’d take her own advice and dump her own cheating boyfriend. Nah! She’s a “do what I tell you ‘cause I’m just lying to you” kind of gal.
Mike and Carlos – As Julia pointed out, “cochina” is not a term of endearment per se, just a comment on her watching porn. It means “pig” but also refers to someone who’s “dirty” (literally or figuratively). Given their sex life, this was probably a turn on. “Gordo/a” is indeed a term of endearment used on everyone from a spouse to a child, though not everyone likes it.
In Gregoria’s defense (and there’s little worth defending here), she’s probably a little torn about which one of her daughters needs her more and trying to respect the wishes of both. As for Pato’s money, I suspect she sees some of it, but probably not as much as she once thought she would.

Oh, and Margarita thanks for your comment yesterday, I got a little more sleep last night - we gave kitty some new medicine, an "antidepressant" go figure, and also because I put "papa" on duty. He had different behavior last night so I don't know, we'll see I guess if he gets better.
Good thing at least your little one is still eating dry. I have some hope though, we got a sample of treats in one box and that just made him ravenous, so I guess if all else fails we'll have to feed him treats instead of real food. Heck if he eats that, it's better than nothing. These do have added vitamins and minerals, so have nutrition, but they will be EXPENSIVE I'm sure. Sigh...
Oh, your Serrano links were cool. She is an absolute riot indeed, but I'm pretty sure the reference was to the famous song lyrics by Spanish singer Joan Manuel Serrat, Sinceramente Tuyo. I forget how to post a link, but here's him singing it on you tube. About halfway through, you'll hear it...

Thanks for that link, Kris, I saw Serrat in the closed captions but had no idea what it was all about. Now that I listened to the song and the lyrics "es triste la verdad, lo que no tiene es remedio", it all makes sense. A new singer to add to my list!
I've been thinking about Candy not telling Lulu about Meno. She may very well and rightly I think believe it is none of her business to out him. I do think Meno should realize the poor girl is getting the wrong idea and let her down easily but even then he is under no obligation to tell her he is gay.

Kris, it's good to hear that your kitten seems to be doing better. It's interesting that antidepressants have many off-label uses. I will not be surprised if Paxil becomes a treatment of choice for IBS. Cats certainly are inscrutable creatures. Our Jack leads an entirely separate life in addition to that he lives in the bosom of his family. He often supplements his diet with the odd small mammal, bird, reptile, or amphibian. Fortunately he doesn't have to cross any roads in his clandestine world. Good luck to you and your kitty! Carlos
I do agree that it's not Candy's place to out Meño, however just flinging the remark "he's not the man for you" is like hanging a carrot in front of poor Lulu. I can only hope Candy tells Meño ASAP so he can let Lulu down with dignity.
Thanks for the clarifications on certain points y'all. It really helps to make sense of some characters' actions.

Kris, glad to hear kitty’s doing better. Indeed, as time passes, they get more and more expensive. It’s a good thing they’re so durn cute ;) Mine had a recent “accident” over my sword bag (yes, that is a bag that I keep swords in) since hubby’s not quite as diligent on litter box duty as I was and it was quite a challenge to get the smell out of the bag and I’m still working on the now rusty and smelly buckler (it’s like a shield, but a lot smaller). Still, when he looks at me with those eyes, what can I do? Only a few more months and I can take that over again. Who would have thought I’d be looking forward to that!!??
Thanks also for the Serrat correction. I wasn’t familiar with the singer, and my mind went straight to the painter (though I think that was spelled Seurat, but it’s been a while). I had thought I heard them say Serrano, but I could have misheard (especially since Serrat actually put it in his lyrics and it merely sounds like something Serrano would have said). Cool to learn (and to listen) ;)
Interesting thought on Paxil Carlos. Years ago I went on something called Doxepin that had originally been formulated as an antidepressant, but was now used for skin allergies. Go figure! Lord knows they need to come up with something since it doesn't look like they'll be putting Zelnorm on the market any time soon.

Carlos / Margarita, I'd never heard the term "off label" till a couple of years ago when my mother had some diabetic retinopathy. The uber-ophthalmologist injected Avastin into her eye to halt the growth of blood vessels. Avastin, he said, was developed to starve blood vessels that feed tumors in colon cancer.
Margarita, if it's not being too nosy, when are you due? Seems like a mini baby boom's in progress lately, not just you & la familia Ferro.

What a fun recap.
Deciegirl I have always thought Fabiola (Alicia) looks like Eva Mendez even when when she was in Duelo. She has such a sexy look. I guess they'll never cast her as a good girl, altho I don't see why she has to be typecast.
