MEPS, Wed. May 13, - Eduardo, Franco, Rebeca, Barbara - What's In a Name?
Capitulo 62
Opening: Manzanares sees the barely, badly hidden passport in the wide open or is it? inside Las Animas and knows Santi is Eduardo while EduardoSanti is pushing Hipólita (oops, update that to Barbara) to tell him who Rebeca Sánchez is.
We return to the hoods breaking the lock at Las Animas, Manzanares orders the two burly boys to stay outside to keep vigil. Who is he to give us orders? boasts Lucio. Jairo, strangely compliant decides to follow orders.
Gardenia beats on the door at Lucio's hideaway and cries out to no one at all.
Vladi says don't you have something important to tell me? Damian gets the unhappy news that he is being pursued for the $3million. His mother hears and disolves in grief. When Vladi returns from the copy shop, he wants to know why Damian lied to him and hid the real story. Dami insists in apoplectic gasps for air and between abusing liquor bottles that Barbara is blaming him for this theft and won't pay him what she owes him. Vladi looks at Damian like I look at ant invasions, what to do with this plague, what to do?
Don't you know about Damian? How did you find out about it? Erika tells Fernanda and Santi that Damian's fugitive status is all over the TV. Fernanda goes inside furious since Gonzo and Barbara promised her they were not going to make a public case of this.
Erika compliments Santi for saying the exact right thing required as he assures her she is a faithful friend to Fernanda, she can't help that she had to give Fernanda bad news about the bad news, just in time to be abused by CamilHo who strides across the well cropped lawn hurling insults and trying to belittle his brother and former girlfriend in one sentence. He asks if she is already going to be unfaithful (ponerle los cuerno) with her new boyfriend. After he is brushed off Erika assures Santi that Cami is no longer her love interest but Franco Santoro is and it is really getting serious. Santi registers surprise with his eyebrows, keeping any doubts to himself.
Fernanda jumps her Papi for taking the case public. How could this be turned into a circus (circo) He insists he was very precise with Commander Lozoya that his orders were to keep this quiet. Who could have gone to the media?
Franc and Steve show up at Grupo Lack.Tows and Flor informs Barbara who immediately adjusts her makeup and smiles lovingly at herself in the mirror.
Meanwhile Manzanares continues ransacking. He is an expert at breaking open locks at Las Animas while the boys sit on the patio drinking juice straight from the pitcher. Jairo is sure Franco will be found guilty of drug trafficking.
On the phone, Barbara is pretending innocence, who could possibly have told the media? Barbara interrupts to greet Steve and Franco. Fernanda decides that if Barbara is innocent as the driven snow, it must be Anibal who did it. Who contradicted my orders. Both Papa and Fernanda rant and rave looking for an answer.
Franco explains that Mr. Norton insisted on coming to supervise this operation himself. Barbara enthuses that Mr. Norton's presence here will augur well. Steve says its just an excuse to escape and to know el, la, su pais, (who hasn't had trouble with gender and chosen su to avoid being wrong)
Steve offers Barbara that he is going to grant (va otorgar) $1.5 million as a voucher (bono) for her special services and support. She says it isn't necessary. Steve feigns great shock, will she look down on (despreciar) the quantity of the bond by refusing it? - Break-
Rifling open a lovely large cabinet, produces the diamond ring Eduardo intended for Fernanda, but Manzanares throws it back in the drawer, and then he finds and opens another closet that has the passport. [So it wasn't lying out in the open like the previews hinted] Outside, the boys argue if he is trying to trick them when Manzanares emerges and says he found nothing of interest. He wants to go back to the girl. Jairo and Lucio had big ideas and are so disappointed.
Barbara decides that she will not accept a separate check and Steve throws a small tantrum when he insists that he must make a deposit directly into her a personal account. Eduardo promises Barbara to fix things with Steve and rushes out the door too. They act out a bit more in the lobby then disappear in the elevator. What were you doing there, I am helping you . At this moment Barbara is thinking that she has committed an error in turning down $1.5 million. I have no doubt that she will provide us proporcionarse with the account. Steve promises that this will lead to her letting down (descuida) her defenses.
Erika comes in the house to ask Fernanda, why didn't you tell me? Well it really just happened. So did Damian really abandon you and rob your family? Apparently so says the cool headed not at all lovelorn Fernanda. After the break, Fernanda continues telling Erika that mostly she feels like such a fool for believing him. However she is not dying for lost love. They discuss how to love someone who can become someone you don't know (desconocido) at all .
Gonzo yells in the phone at Barbara that the commander acted against his orders. He will get to the bottom of which irresponsible person gave the order . She puts him off saying it will be better if she is the one to talk with Lozoya as Franco reenters. She is sure this transaction is not exactly legal. He assures her that his boss wants to have a private account to keep the transfer perfectly discrete. She smiles.
Fernanda tells Erika she would like to discuss something else. She proudly tells Nanda that she saw Camilho and felt almost nothing and she knows from him that Franco came to Mexico to look for a WIFE.
The taxi pulls up and the pouting Aurora gets out looking a bit more hopeful than usual. She has already paid for the taxi but wonders if Santi is irritated with seeing her so has told the driver to wait, She tells Santi she has to tell him why she came back, He seems too grateful for her coming back.
Fernanda tells Erika that Camho lied, he doesn't know anyone inside Power Milk, he threatened Jacinto and broke into Franco's house to find the papers.
Aurora shows Santi a handkerchief embroidered with RS, Santi beams, that is Rebeca Sanchez!
Just in the Grupo Lacktos, Barbara says this account is in the Grand Caimans, Franco scans the paper asking Barbara, just who is Rebeca Sanchez! The drums tells us this is a big conjunction of events.
RS is a person who has my entire confidence. Franco hesitates, don't you have an account in your own name? Barbara goes on she has my complete confidence, it is just like you were doing business with me myself. Franco smiles, count on me.
Finally Aurora tells Santi that she is sorry for all the rejections (rechazas) She came to see if Fernanda knew where he was but she would have looked under every rock for him. and now she realizes she is in love with him because he is the best thing since sliced bread. She understands if he doesn't want to know more of her. Abruptly she stands, steps away, now I must say good bye. Santi stops her, wanting to tell her something. The telling is a really warm kiss.
Franco says if he can't come up with all this money at once he will have to disappear. Telling Steve in the car, Steve says Rebeca Sanchez is the name we have to verify, just who Rebeca Sanchez?
Barbara is worries alone that Gonzo cannot find out that she told Lozoya to publicise Damian's dastardly deeds (sorry, I just had to say it once).
Camilho surprises San and Aurora with snaky comments on the return of Romeo and Juliet kiss.
Damian hands Vladimir the folder of papers with what he must tell Priscila who is ringing the door bell. or he will never help him again. Vladi goes to door, Damian dashes across the room in oh so attractively tight t-shirt and jeans, he hides in bedroom.
He asks the pouty faced Pris for a little kiss, then shrieks like a little girl, giddy and says her presence is making him rise to the heavens. We roll our eyes with Damian who watches from a crack in the door.
Anibal points out that the only time Barbara has knocked on his door before entering. She starts the croc tears and says she is in his hands. Anibal has a dazed puzzled expression that looks so much like Gonzo. But, Gonzo is in a fit and tells Flor to find Barbara, she puts Gonzo off for another 5 minutes she will call him back. She cries to Anibal that her marriage will be over if Gonzo finds out.
Vladimir tells Pris he has a contact in GrupoLack she wants to know who that would be, he says he can't tell her today. She wants to know when he can tells her who. . He shows her all the papers, financial statements of her investments (inversiones) and says they show what Anibal has been doing with her money. Prisc holds back acting like she is kissing a frog, Damian grins, Pris begins to fold, she has to come back for more info.
Barbara continues the tears while Anibal tells her what she already knows, how did she have the audacity to defy Papi's orders. Someone else in trouble seems to be the only thing that makes Anibal's eyes gleam. Barbara says she couldn't watch Damian rob the company and the family.
a criminal of the worst sort (delincuente de la peor calaña).
I was wrong because right now your papa is having a conniption fit and (hacer energumeno) [Go Apeshit, remember this from the side bar.]
Things between Gonzo and I are very difficult. the difficulties are leaving the bedroom and beginning to affect all of you. I am afraid the marriage is over. Anibal looks oddly sympathetic, here is something he may actually understand.
Gonzo is ranting about people disobeying his orders when Santi bursts in with Aurora. Fernanda and Gonzo turn from ranting to beaming happy times at Aurora. Santi jokes about going on their honeymoon which falls like egg on Fernanda's pretty face. Papi notes that the renegade has found someone who is going to domesticate him? lots of laughter. Embezzlement, what embezzlement...
Barbara was supposed to call him in 5 minutes and now that is passed, Gonzo gets back to his tantrum. Still in Anibal's office Barbara has an analgesico for her headache. Anibal hands over the phone the last thing the GL needs write now is to destroy my marriage. She begins her sweet talk to Gonzo, before I tell you who defied your orders. she says this person is of good will (buena voluntad), just and did it for the best reasons. And we repay him with a betrayal. Anibal grabs the phone and says the person is me Papi!. Anibal? says clueless Gonzo.
Save our Gardenia, she is smearing her makeup and thinking she should get to Jacinto and Margarita but can't seem to get out of that smarmy hideaway of Lucio's.
Next scenes: Camilho says Fernanda is jealous because her friend Erika is going to marry Franco Santoro when Fernanda accuses him of threatening Jacinto and burglarising Franco's house. Hmmm, both right for a change.

Thanks Cheryl. I was too lazy to try to figure out Barb's lies to Anibal, and Gonzo's rants. I'm glad you explained it. I loved your "which falls like egg on Fernanda's pretty face."
So Damian is trying to get Vlad a job inside Groupo Lack-Dough, is that right?
MEPS may have cell phones, but no internet. Now that Ed and eSteve have a name to go on, they could Google "Rebecca Sanchez" and within 10 seconds discover that she murdered her parents. A little more time, and they could probably find a photo that bears a striking resemblance to the hyena. But that would be too easy.
Interesting that both Freduardo and Barbecca made big steps toward their adversaries' identities tonight, but I suspect that some obstacle will interfere with both discoveries.

Love the title, Cheryl and especially loved the "ant invasion" remark. I had the exact same look on my face when we received a serious visitation of these little critters recently. Feel quite guilty about the ant traps but nonetheless.......
Looking forward to watching this later to see Esteve throwing a fit in Barbara's office and also that sweet smooch between Santiago and Aurora. Of course we know true love never runs smooth in these telenovelas but at least they're reunited for now.
In the meantime, calming my nerves with your wonderful té de tila. Looked up the company on Google and found their home page very interesting. I'm beholden to you, amiga.

Cheryl. Thank you so much! I can't believe that Francuardo didn't catch Bab's drift: to me she was telling him she was Barbara Sanchez! then they get in the car and go, "duh, who is this misteriosa Barbara Sanchez?" Sheesh!
Jairo thought they had hit paydirt, that's why he complied, plus he told the stoopid and brootal Lucio, "El que paga manda." The dopes have been duped.
I can't wait to see how this plays out, Eduardo being outed as avenging son and Babs as the abandoning mother. Hey! Maybe Aurora is Babs and Cigarman's luuv child! Hee hee!
And loved Damns almost wifely primping of Vlad: they are so cute together! Vlad with the slightly downward tilt of his head and the upward gaze as Damn tells him, "do this right or I won't help you anymore!" and Vlad's squeal of delight at Priss's barely there kiss. These guys crack me up: an unexpected kind of comic relief!
Hoo boy! Tonight should be another goodun!

Talk about estupida, but I guess greed always wins over common sense. I guess la policia aren't looking for Babs for murdering her parent(s)
Will the real Rebeca please stand up?
What the f___?????? Anibal has no love for Babs, remember the Franco meeting & also the expired milk, she put the screws to him on both of those. So why on earth would Anibal (oh, I almost forgot, this is a TN) in the real world he would be very satisfied with her falling out of favor. Anyone sick of her phony tears, the only one that doesn't bite is Fr/Ed.
You don't suppose there is something more between Babs & Anibal do you????? naaaaah

Thanks for the recap Cheryl. My favorite part was Esteve throwing that fit in the meeting with Babs. Everyone was looking at him like WTF? Priceless. I certainly enjoys playing the game.
Gardenia crying was upsetting to me. She is so spunky I can't stand to see her beaten.
I can't believe that Errorika went from "Let's pretend to be novios" to "We're getting married." Seriously--get your head out of your butt! He's not going to marry you.
Aurora---Big yawn.....

Thanks for the great recap Cheryl. My favorite part as well was Esteve's little berrinche. Both Babs and Eddie looked stunned, as was I. That guy really adds a lot to the show.
Who would have guessed that pink tee shirts would look good. Some years ago I had a complete collection. Something about needing to not mix whites with coloreds. I thought we had advanced further than that as a nation.

Funny Carlos, Damian has to do his own ldy & he has all his belongings in 1 small suitcase.
It seems there is something quite shocking in every episode & leaves us begging for more.
Tks for the great recap, all of you
are fantastic.

Was Dam really wearing Jeans?! I thought so but it was hard to tell. I'm digging the pink t-shirt and jeans look.
Thank you for the fun recap, Cheryl, and the vocab, as usual.
Like others, loved the scene in Babs office when Esteve had his tantrum. Surprised me as much as they seemed to be. I'm getting to like this actor and character. Eddy is not the sharpest, not even suspecting that Babs=Rebeca. Too bad Esteve wasn't there, mystery solved.
Dupes duped, indeed. Jairo and Lucio think they are so cool, and gonna be important figures for helping in this investgation of FS. Yeah, right, Manzanares is going to disappear, leaving the two stooges to face kidnapping and assault charges (in the real world, anyway), while he collects a fat paycheck from cogarman for a job well done. I lauged, too when Lucio drank from the pitcher. He is a piece of work.
The shocker for me was Any?balls falling on the sword for Babs. I had thought that he barely tolerates her, and then he does this. He knows how pissed daddy was about it, too, even lied once (from daddy's perspective). WHy, oh why didn't Gonzo call the cop and ask him WTF? At some point someone is going to see thru Babs and her lies- who will it be (besides Eddy or Esteve)? I'm thinking it will be Fernanda, or maybe she with Santi working together.
Tonight is gonna be fun...

Thanks for the recap, Cheryl. I can't wait to read, and hopefully watch my recording later. Busy day today,,, may only get to read the recap.

DD, I thnk Santi already sees through Babs. He's always messing with her. What would be the worst thing/punishment that could happen to Babs? Hmmmmm.....
DDave, I hadn't actually thought that far ahead(duh) but I believe your analysis is dead on. Manzanares will leave Lucio and Jairo holding the bag as well as a very mad wet hen.
Carlos
Carlos
Connie, yes, Santi sees thru her, but hasn't caught her at any lies (has he?), that's what I really intended to sak.
Carlos- do you think that Manzanares is hoing to pay his bill at Jairo's Inn, or stiff him that way, too?

Cheryl: An excellent recap of another good episode. Best line: "Dami insists in apoplectic gasps for air and between abusing liquor bottles..." Yes!
While we are on the subject, Khalilah, loved your "Damns almost wifely primping of Vlad" :)
The comments on the Caray blogs are wonderful...
A lot of lies, deceits and secrets to be unraveled. But, first things first. Let's get Gardenia found and attended to (I'm with you Connie, I hated to see her cry also). Retribution next please with a huge smackdown of Lucio and Jairo.
Carlos, I spread a little cheer in the office by laughing out loud when reading your comment. Gracias.

DDave, I think that that Jairo may be seeing the last of Manzanares (in his current incarnation at least).

Thanks, Cheryl. There isn't even a trace of Luis and Hippolita as we watch Fr/ed and BeckyBabs interact. These two are good actors. I love Esteve. Things are speeding up. I hope that Fr/ed and Esteve figure out who Rebecca Sanchez is soon because Art will surely tell Babs that Franco is Eduardo.

Thanks Cheryl, another good one!
I do not, cannot like Erika - I hate to tell Nanda this but she is no friend, with friends like Erika who needs enemies. She and Cad deserve each other and now I see the attraction. Misery loves company.
Anyballs is a mess falling for Teflon Barbie's story and jumping on the sword. Too bad he doesn't have the same compassion for his wife. I do believe that Pris likes all of the attention from her new beau, she has a hard time not smiling when he is around.
JudyB, the next time the little critters come around get some Terro Ant Baid - it really works for the kitchen/bath ants. It is a clear, odor free, gel that makes them disappear in a day or two. I think you find it anywhere including Walgreens. (No, I do not own stock)
Carlos, my son's senior class all had matching undies as a result of a camping trip and a something put in the wash by a fellow classmate that was red. It was a joke around here for a long time which is probably why I even noticed it.
How stupid can Teflon Barbi be? Giving her bank account number to Ed. They do have internet and it won't take Esteve long to figure this one out. He is brains in this operation for sure.

Thanks for the tip, RSK....the ant traps have worked but I just feel sad knowing that the worker bees carried the poison back to the hive and little by little all the ants there died. I don't want them in my house but I hate killing them. See my dilemma? I'm too tender-hearted.
I need a good dose of Gardenia's feistiness...and evidently Gardenia needs a good dose of our very own Connie's toughness to bust her out of there. Don't wanna see our spunky girl crying, no way.

Thanks for the recap Cheryl. The title was great and your comments were funny as usual. I particularly enjoyed "Damian's dastardly deeds."
Question - How did Ed and eSteve come across Rebecca Sanchez's name in the first place? I had not heard them discuss so I must have missed it.
What's going on with Anibal? As others have mentioned he takes the fall for Barbie and he is as fond of her as he is his wife??!! Beanie time.

Thanks JudyB. It's not necessarily about being tough, it's about being smarter than the other guy and using your surroundings to your advantage.
Karen- Eddy and Esteve came across the name for the firts time last nite; she provided it because it was the name on the Caiman Islands bank account where her $1.5M "bonus" for her role in tha PowhereMeelk/Lactoseintolerance alliance is to be deposited.
Great recap Cheryl -
I also can't believe Anibal covered for Barbara. I try to suspend disbelief watching these shows, but that was just too much. This is the same guy who just accused his sister, retroactively, of bringing that thief Damian into their family. All her fault. Not theirs for hiring him, because she married him it's all on her even though they were all fooled. Now we're supposed to believe he's going to stand up and be a man about going against his father's wishes? No way, it's just not at all in character for him.
I do enjoy the Esteve Experience so far, he's a man of action and I'm glad the show is moving forward again.
Lastly - what's to keep Barbara from just opening another account and giving that number to Esteve and Fr/Ed? Why did she break down and give her main private number? Also makes no sense.

Manzanares work isn't finished, he still has to whack Padre Bosco. So he'll be around awhile. Guess you don't need a search warrant in novelaland.
I think Fr/Ed has put 2&2 together, who puts 1 1/2 mil in someone else's acct?
Loved the parting handshake between Fr/Ed & Babs

Thanks amigos for the comments and support as always it makes the effort all worthwhile when I can see evidence that it helps people understand more Spanish and all of us can understand the intricacies of the plot by helping each other.
I was very upset by Gardenia's distress and smeared makeup. Her rambunctious beauty is much more fun to watch.
Ed/Franco is hopefully being subtle and suspects more than he let on to Babecca. ESteve is certainly a wonderful addition to the scenes. I hope he stays in Mexico for months so we can see him help Franuardo find his groove.
Judy, I am glad the Tila is having its magic effect.

ferro- I think that Babs did it for convenience, afterall, they want to make the deposit asap, or so she thinks, also, she has no suspicion that they are duping her, she was taken off the Franco Santoror caper by Cigarman when Clouseau came on board. As Vario said, he still needs to whack PadBosco, which he should have done by now according to what he agreed with Cuigarman. I'm sure he'll take care of that, and the blow town, at some point letting Eddy's true identity known, etc. lots to happen real quickly. Also, Vario, remember that he isn't a cop, just playing one for Jairo and Lucio, he " don't need no stinking warrant"
I was thinking that the 2 stooges, Jairo & Lucio should have wondered about a real cop breaking into someones house to snoop around w/o a warrant.

Thanks for the recap, Cheryl, enjoyed it.
Gonzo the Dense is also a milquetoast. Babs (in her fake caring) manipulates him because she knows he avoids unpleasant tasks. So no call to the police guy and no direct involvement with poor Lily for 15 years.
Vlad and Esteve are really livening things up. Too bad Fr/Ed and Esteve can't figure out how drain the $167 million out of Rebecca/Bab's account since it's in an illegal account. anyway. GinCA

Thank you CherylNM!
I was uneasy about Aurora's showing up and immediately announcing now I'm in love with you Santi I got another clue to finding my mother and love to have you help me out. YET STILL not telling Santi your sister is being betrayed by her husband.
After reading your recap on Aurora's encounter I see that more than just odd she may not be muy bueno.
After this blitz of name recognitions I'm starting to think the story is not about hiding identities but about surviving full frontal attacks. Wonder if they will start wearing disguises; maybe a mask for Franco, that would be ni.iii.ce.

Great recap, as usual, Cheryl!
Silly me, trying for logic. But a couple of things are bugging me. I thought when Camilo found that telegram (in English, I believe) in Freduardo's house that Cad thought it was a big coup. That the telegram said something about a RICH bride. So, when Camilo gets his big chance to tell Errorika, I don't think he told her about the gold digging part. She seems delighted that he's looking for a wife and either was not told by Cad or is in denial that it's about the money, not her terrific personality.
Another odd thing. Does Manzanares plan to kill Gardenia? Otherwise, wouldn't she go straight to the cops and point the finger at Jairo and Lucio, even if Manzanares manages to get out of Dodge before the s*%t hits the fan?
I really don't think you can kidnap people in Mexico with impunity, with the possible exception of the huge cartels.

Carlos said "Who would have guessed that pink tee shirts would look good. Some years ago I had a complete collection. Something about needing to not mix whites with coloreds. I thought we had advanced further than that as a nation."
You are TOO FUNNIE! Thank you Carlos.

Anon 2:19- Right now, i'm thinking that Ed/Esteve will use that bank account info to discover that Babs is Rebeca, and that theer is a balance of $167M that came from GL. Esteve is proving to be very savvy, and probably has hihg-falootin contacts.
Novelera- i think that Clouseau (Manzanares) has no intention of harming Gardenia, that is waht he said, and he protecetd her from Lucio. He is a pro, and I think he will kill, but surgically, only those whose names are on the list, professionally, w/o a wide wake of destruction. He simply wanted Gardenia out of the house, then search it, let her go, blow town, and kill PadBosco just as quickly as i wrote it. He doesn't care about the stooges, he'll be gone before the cops come looking, and they will be there to take the wrap. The stooges have no isea who he really is, or where to look for him. 'Course, I could be wrong.

Novelera-
Cad did tell Erika that Franco is in search of a rich wife, thinking this would hurt her. This didn't phase her however, because she knows she's the one who pressured him into the whole fake relationship. Now she thinks she really has a chance with him because he is looking for a rich wife, and she is perfectly willing and able to fulfill that role. Erika is the one that didn't mention to Fernanda the rich part. She left that out on purpose I think. She knows how pathetic she would seem. Erika seems like a lot of women who leave out the crappy things their boyfriends do so that they don't face so much ridicule from fam and friends. It's probably what has allowed Cad to treat her so badly for so long, without her parents knowing about it.
As for Babs and Anibal- she laid it on thick with talk of family honor and not hurting the business, and how the ending of her and Gonzo's marriage would harm both, adding to the damage that dastardly Dam has already done. This idea of honor and pride are really important to Anibal, just like his mom.

P.S
It wouldn't surprise me if Clouseau tells the stooges to stay at Lucio's, and wait for instructions from him to release Gardenia. Maybe he'll even call the cops anonymously, and get them arrested.

I guess Fr/ed saw the name Rebecca Sanchez on the computer screen when Babs brought her account up...dummy. Perhaps, Fr/ed's swarthy good looks and his skillz at putting the smooth moves on have flustered old Beckybabs and she is getting careless. I have a feeling that Esteve just might be clever enough to figure out who RS is and after some computer hacking, he might stumble upon that fat account in her name . I wonder why the writers are making Esteve the brain power instead of ONH. Anyhoo, it appears that Martina/Gardinera are the brawn and Esteve is the brain in this novela. I agree with those who do not care for Error. I think that she resents always being in Ferd's shadow. As for Any?balls taking the blame for Babs...all I can think of is that Babs knows about that powdered milk fiasco that AB is responsible for , so he's protecting his butt by protecting Babs's butt.

Here's what I find interesting about Damian's pink t-shirt (other than what's inside)...I SAW it as white, because that was what I was expecting.
Even now that I know it's pink, I still see it as white unless I compare it specifically with Vlad's white collar or Priscilla's outfit.
Clearly, in many respects, I don't see the world as it IS, but rather as I expect it to be. Scary!
Either that, or I need a new TV.
* * *
Cheryl...yes, the tea is wonderful...and you were wonderful to send it. Both the tea and the amistad are wonderfully comforting. Hope you got my note, amiga. And now, all I need is a magic wand and I'll be set!

Vivi, I think you have nailed something very accurately. I agree that Anibal is the most like his mother and values the honor, wealth and heritage that his mother was so enamored of. Barbecca has really nailed him too, with most people she seems to be able to mimic real sentiment that will speak to the person's innermost desires.
Dorado Dave, thanks for your take on the Lucio/Jairo kidnap involvement. It makes sense that Manzanares plans to book out of there (after offing the priest). But it's still illogical that Jairo and Lucio can continue their reign of terror w/o any consequences. What? They don't think Gardenia is going to tell someone what happened to her?
Jairo is already a pretty shady cantina owner, with some prostitution on the side. But Lucio has to be one dumb bunny if he thinks he can still work for the Elizaldes if his crimes come to light, not to mention keeping Soledad's house.

I wasn't surprised at Anibal's taking Resonsibility'. Afterall Barb knows all their weaknesses so she played him. Now AB feels strong and authoritative, like he led the fight for justice. The look he gave Barb also may have been what he thinks he has achieved in raising his status with her.
PS...Connie...you are smart AND tough...tough is indeed about using your mind to figure a way out. Just read a book about Survivors and one big characteristic is they keep their heads when others are panicking and come up with a solution. I'll put my money on you any day.
About the pink tee...I thought it was white, but I'll take your word for it. My flat screen tv is not very big. When I was a new bride, I wanted my new hubby's shirts to be sparkling whiter than white, so I used plenty of bleach. Well, he had to gently tell me that his tees were getting holes from all that bleach. He does own a pink dress shirt and a pink golf shirt, but he's a big guy , so he can pull it off.

Judy B. fun-nee! "Here's what I find interesting about Damian's pink t-shirt (other than what's inside)...I SAW it as white, because that was what I was expecting." when I heard people talking about pink I was like, whaaa? I, too, only saw Damn's fine physique and don't recall anything about a pink shirt! Hee hee! Strange again, but I felt sorry for him as he tearfully realized what Babs has double-crossed him. I know, I know, he literally screwed over Nanda, but obviously she's not meant to be with him.
Errorika? I'm NOT going to feel sorry for her when she realizes Franco/Eddie doesn't want her and fully expect her to still go for him after Nanda goes ballistic upon realizing Franco is Eddie and rejects him: reciprocation don't mean squat to Errorika.

On the topic of youtube...the really good uploads of Alborada are all gone. There is another user that still has them up, but angelyfor, all gone. I'm so glad I got to watch it in its entirety before that happened. I have the DVD now, and I can't believe how much they chop it up. Its like they didn't even think about the story, just cut huge chunks out.
When Vlad squealed like a pig last night I was done! How can Pris ever go for that?

Novelera- Jairo and Lucio together might score a triple-digit IQ. They likely think that they are under the protection of Narcodetectivo Manzanares, and can do whatever they want, which is probably much more true in Mexico than here. I don't see that the cantina is doing anything wrong or shady, he has drinks, food, live entertainment, just like a million similar joints evreywhere. Prostitution isn't illegal in Mexico, is it? It isn't in much of latin America. What Lucio is doing and why is anyone's guess, when is he going back to work; they don't seem to need himm too much...
Manzanares is a pro mafia type, but one thing bothers me, he has used his real name, at least that's what Artemio calls him, so I assume it's his real name.
I just did a search, prostitution is illegal in Mexico, however it's very easy to pay off the police to turn a blind eye.
Khalilah...hey, you made me feel a lot better...thanks...
I want to like Erika because I love the actress...she was so great in Pasion...but in this the character of Ericka seems like her mother...totally shallow, vain, clueless and an oxygen-waster. I think the friendship with Fernanda is partly due to yes, only "appropriate" female in the area and because Fernanda is basically kind-hearted and willing to overlook others' faults and shortcomings.

I still think Erika will end up with Santiago, that's just the way things are supposed to happen in TN's.
Hi Gang! Weekly check in and weekly MEGA THANK YOU to all the recappers. Wish I could post more often. Once again, here's what I've been pondering...
Dam has some fine looking arms in that tighty whitey/pinky but what's with the girlie jeans? Too fem for me.
Vlad is pathetic with Priscilla. She does disdain with panache.
Cadmilho needs a serious smackdown & AnyBalls is as idiotic as his father. Babs certainly enjoys toying with the Elizalde imbeciles. I get the feeling she wishes it was more of a challenge.
Free Gardenia! Free Lili! Free Martina from guarding Lili! Free Jacinto! Free 'em all!
Oh, and of course, Fr/Ed is so fine...what a joy to watch him every night before I go to sleep.
Maggarita

Oh dear, Variopinta...I hope you're wrong. I'd rather see him end up with Aurora. He seems way too nice for Erika. But you could be right....dang!
Cheryl, thanks for another great recap. Loved "Damian's dastardly deeds." He's the type of villain who could sneeringly twirl his moustache and get away with it. I took a closer look at his pink shirt tonight and agree with Carlos and others--it's due to a laundry problem. I nominate Vlad as the responsible party, with Dam having no choice but to wear it.
I enjoyed the thugs (Lucio, Jairo) drinking straight from the pitcher. You can tell they weren't "raised right."
I really appreciate all the excellent comments that help keep the details straight.
When Gardenia gets free, watch out. If hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, a woman locked up has to be even worse.

Vario- I just googled, and three different websites said that prostitution is leagl in Mexico, but not in brothels, bordelos, bars or restaurants, and pimping is not allowed. Same as in Costa Rica, and probably other places, too. The girls are all independant contractors. So Jairo IS running an establishment that is out of compliance...

Hey Maggarita! Yeah, Cadmilho and especially Lucio need the crap smacked outa them, both of them exude their own particular brand of slime. Uuuf!
Y Judy B. I fear Aurora may have to die along with Mommy Dearest, maybe she might like do a mercy killing of Mommy and then off herself. Sorry to be so dark at this time of night but I can't see them letting Santi marry the daughter of his Mother's killer. Babs killed her own parents, too and you know, like in the movie, The Bad Seed, that shit skips a generation and Aurora's kids would be the spawn of satan like Grand Ma-Ma. Just sayin'
