Gancho - Thrus 9-3-09 - Love will keep us together... or not...

First off BIG SHOUT OUT to Cap'n Sharkbait for filling in for me in a pinch last night. That was a huge favor and I am eternally grateful.


Beto tells Monita that he wants to take some time before they get married. Mona wonders what got into his brain, who he has been talking to.

Xime in her librarian get up shows up with Coni and try to distract Pau so that Coni can sneak into Mona‘s. Xime talks best friends and the new guy with Pau. We see Coni go in, and she finds what she was looking for, her necklace. When she runs out, who sees her but Mau.

Beto says that he has been in therapy and has learned that he has fear of commitment. Mona is confused for sure. She tells Estre what happened and wonders if maybe she was involved somehow.

Anastasia has learned the fine art of workin it for more money and she thinks these guys are boobs and she deserves more money if they expect her to have anything to do with Sal. Jero leaves and Oski takes the opportunity to tell her he will only take 10 minutes of her time and well, that leaves her time for him. She is on his lap showing off about all she can nuzzling with him when Gabi walks in on them. Oski swears it ain’t what it seems. Heh!.

Coni turns the tables on Mau and instead of him wondering what she is doing there he thinks maybe she followed him and she sees her out with him. He doesn’t flinch to her complaints though, he brought Moni home after something bad happened at the office. Coni runs off saying he’s treating her so bad, and she’s not going to stick around for it.

Mau asks Mona to come to the school ot speak to the director with him. They kiss goodbye and Estr comes out of the woodwork to point out how wifey talking to the kids school is.

Aldo and Lu go to school remarking how they don’t fit in and everything sucks.

Mau and Mona show up at the school, Mona is in her librarian look, a little more sexy than Xime’s. She promises Mau she’ll take care of that Maestra, but he reminds her violence is not the way, check it at the door sister. Ok so now we see some whitebread chicas laughing and picking on Lu.

Christian tries to get Paula’s stats. He asks if she has a boyfirend, and deduces that she is marrying Beto because of some pressure. He tells her whenever she’s ready, he’ll be waiting for her. She says to herself after he’s gone that she always dreamed of a husband who has a bullet proof vest.

Eventually the silly girls address Lu and remind her that even though Mau has adopted her she’s still a measly orphan, and they throw on drink on her. Mona to the rescue, she grabs the blond chic and requires her to apologize or else she’ll get lickins. Blond chic resists, but get the fist in face.

We see Oski again trying to minimalize the hottie that was attached to his lap earlier. Gabi says fuggedaboutit and doesn’t play into him. Chris comes up to exert his securitized self and requires Oski to leave her a lone and go away. She doesn’t want him to grope her.

Back at school Moni still yanks on blondie until Mau comes up and asks her que the hell is she doing? He tells her to let go.

Gabi and Chris chat, and he asks more about Pau and learns Beto is the boyfriend. He looks him up and down as Beto sweeps.

Mau yells at Mona for her lack of propriety, that she just can’t go woman handle young girls, she thinks they shouldn’t be allowed to be so mean, but Mau counters she can’t follow Lu everywhere. Mona wants to though until those stuck ups respect Lu. Mona asks why he brought her, he knows how she is. Mau takes the kids home and tells Lu to ignore those girls, and anyway once they get to know her, they will be charmed. Lu just wants out.

Chris arrests Beto.

Nieves finds Mona upset and guesses she fought with the guapo. Essentially she tells Mona she loves her as a adaughter, and to watch out for those high falootin’ types, they may be too different and these things never turn out well. She doesn’t want Mona hurt.

Chris begins his interrogation of Beto, and spills that he’s after Pau and that she deserves better, Beto at the point of suffocation will agree she is great. Chris warns him he better make her happy.

Mau shows up at Mona’s she has apparently thought over Nieves admonishment and she tells Mau he’s up here and she is down here and so they have nothing in common and he’ll tire of her and go back to Mummy, and tells him to leave.

Jero wonders with Oski why they are such boobs. Oski is more confident. Sal interrupts the pity fest and comes to introduce Jero’s new personal assistant chosen by the president. Enter Xime, she offers a coffee, tea, etc. Oski gives her a letter to write. She wonders if “Querida” is with a large K, she says it is the first word.

Coni bonds with Lu over the abuse the chicas dished out. She decides she has to do something for her., treat he how to be the bad chic.

Mau is pissed off at Mona’s audacity. He says they are the same, and he’s mad that she never cared how much he loves her. She catches that word and asks him if he loves her. He screams it to the heavens, He loves Valentina!!!!!

After the break he yells at her for never realizing that he loves her so much and for playing so many games. He’s sick of them and walks out. She tells him she loves him too, but after he’s gone from the room.

Gabi is “chatting” with Ana about dumming down the slut strut while she’s here. Ana is happy Gabi is so mad and she gets an idea after Gabi tells her not to put anything in her cappuccino or she'll go straight to jail.

At the apartments Beto yells at Pau for ratting him out to Chris and wants her to call him off. She would like nothing better than to marry Christian Bermudez, but she made a PROMISE, you know one of those things he's never done. They argue about telling Chris the truth and Mona won't even find out, Pau won't but thinks Beto should instead. Estre overhears and tells them to stop arguing and reminds them Mona lied to keep them all employed, so they shouldn't undermine her. Beto gets mad and somehow decides maybe he should just tell Mau everything. Estre is unable to convince him otherwise as he marches off.

Coni gives Lu lessons on being a first class lying stuck up beatch snot. Aldo overhears and can't contain himself as he tells Coni to knock it off and that Lu should be proud of her roots. He doesn't get to far, the adolescent urge to belong is stronger on Lu and she knows being shallow is the way to go, so she walks off with Coni, ah another casualty for now. Aldo looks on in disgust.

Back at the office, Jero is milkshaking Xime again for who knows what when Ana burst in that she can't take anymore of this crazyness and not to even tell her it's worth it to inherit Mau's money. Xime over hears this and freaks out that they are going to murder Mau. She runs out of the office, and they all run after her.


We go over to the barrio where Estre passes up the chance to let Pau use her cell because of what she did to Mona. Mona appears hears and wonder what Pau said. Estre tells her Beto went off to the jefe to tell him everything. She goes off running.



Well I missed something here because of my reception, all I saw was Teresa's face, then we cut to Chris showing up and wanting smooches from Pau. Estre meets him. Just then Xime comes running up begging for protection.

At the slick house Beto tells Mau he has something to tell him and that he's betrayed him and needs to tell him the truth. Coni overhears this and thinks he's going to tell about them and tells him that Dani locked herself in the room and won't respond. He runs off and she warns Beto not a single word. He doesn't know what she's talking about.



In the room Dani says she did no such thing, she only said she was busy and she makes her famous stick tounge face. Coni can't believe she's calling her a liar but Mau says we're not going to argue about a misunderstanding.

Mona shows up while Beto is waiting and she does the same thing as Coni, warns Beto to keep his mouth closed. Mau comes out and wonders whay she is there. She of course lies, and Beto agrees that maybe instead they will talk tomorrow. Beto goes off and Mona stands there alone. She gets ready to leave when Mau all of a sudden grows a brain. He says not so fast, we have to chat. Does she play him for stupid? Well maybe not but we sure do...anyway he knows she convinced Beto not to say anything, and basically he doesn't know her, she's so full of lies. He said he would fight to be with her no matter what and she remembers that was a day she thought was a dream, he says well it's a nightmare because that was another women who would be honest with him. Funny how he has this radar with her but not with Coni....

And that's it...thanks for waiting.

Heathers!!! Did you ever see the movie? That's what those three horrid schoolgirls reminded me of.

Woman handle. I like it. Slut strut. I love it.
 

Ditto what Sylvia said plus was amused that you wrote Anastacia "thinks these guys are boobs".....using 'boobs' and Anastacia in the same sentece is well...thought-provoking.

Have to admit her front balcony and rear cargo are both awesome. Hope you guys (Hombre, Carlos, Mike and whomever) are enjoying the view!
 

PS NICKSTER SAY 'HI' TO YOU ALL...He's about to hit campus like Desert Storm on the l8th. Has been busy every since recapping just getting ready for school and facebooking with his roommates to be. Remember those days? (okay, we didn't have Facebook but I can remember writing lots of letters back and forth to my prospective roommate...and when she wasn't there when I arrived, I was SURE it was because she didn't like me and had decided not to come. An hour later, there she was and we became the best of friends.)
 

Hee hee, I also had to giggle, OK it was a guffaw and perhaps a snort too, when you said Ana thought those guys were "boobs". So yeah, what Judy said.

Hey, great news about Nickster and how exciting for him. Thanks for keeping us in the loop.
 

Carlos said...

Excellent recap Kris. Another fine episode. The little blonde esquincle harassing Luisa had some of Ximy's mannerisms, but certainly not her charm. I'm not sure why, but one of my favorite scenes was a very short exchange between Beto and Mau:

Beto: "¿Te puedo tutear?"

Mao: "No."

I had a website, ungancho.com, that had all the chapters neatly indexed and linked to Youtube, but when I went to it yesterday, essentially...gone. Still called ungancho, but nothing to do with the show and no forwarding address. Do any of you have a way to access episodes? I know they're there on Youtube, but there is no coherent way now to find an individual episode for the stretch that we are in now. Help!

Carlos
 

Hi Carlos...ditto on the "tutearme"...that WAS funny....Beto is soooo inappropriate but shrugs it off without rancor when he's rebuffed.

Also loved his scenes with the police guy...very good-natured about being hauled off to jail.
 

Very funny recap, Kris. I liked how you said maybe Mau will have to go "back to Mummy".

Carlos, I, too, found that tutear thing hilarious. I think earlier or in a past show, Moni, or maybe Estrella was really happy that Mau was tuteando them. Or maybe there was something with Gabi, who would NOT allow someone to tutear with her.

Judy, I was entranced by Anastasia's attributes. I know there's enhancement, but the display is so "displayed" that I missed half of her lines. Same thing used to happen with Ninel Conde (Rosario?) in FELS.

Sylvia: I agree, it was like the movie "Heathers" where all the bad girls were named that.

It was funny how Connie was teaching Luisa to lie, and Luisa lapped it up. Aldo saw it, and maybe Connie will get in a little trouble for it, but remember, Moni herself is a "lie factory", so maybe she should be teaching Luisa. BTW, I think even Mau has told a few little lies when explaining things to Connie. It's definitely like "le dijo la sartén al cazo, quítate que me tiznas" (the pot calling the kettle black).
 

Judy, you're right about the police car scene. Beto asked that he not be beaten too badly or something to that effect. He is just so lovable.

Carlos
 

Kris, enjoyed your title and recap.

Judy, glad to hear Nick is enjoying college life. Also you and your word play (Anastacia and boobs) are too much fun.

I'm really glad Christina (aka Chalo) is back. I really hope he ends up being Paula's novio.

I hope Mau doesn't sleep with the Mummy.
 

Yes, Carlos and then he noted that he probably spent about as much time at the police station as his "captor"...(remembering fondly many good times playing cards and winning money from the other inmates, no doubt.) This guy truly has a gift for seeing the upside to life.

Hoho..Hombre...don't blame you. Anastacia'a attributes are distracting. And besides, it doesn't really matter what she says...body language is the major part of communication, verdad?
 

Those girls seem too tame to me to be "Heathers." I'd say they're run-of-the-mill "Mean Girls."

So Paula has always dreamed of a husband who wears a bulletproof jacket? Interesting. Is it just me, or does Chris in that uniform look like a bachelorette party about to happen?

To me the best moment of the show was when Dani stuck out her tongue at Constanza, then instantly switched back to a sweet innocent smile as Mauricio turned back toward her.
 

Bachlorette parties...oh my...back in my day, they weren't so interesting. (In fact they didn't have 'em, only showers with very tame games if at all)...but good thought Julia!
 

Hi guys ok I finished... I'm not sure if I can get pics this time I taped from a different source. I too discovered that website changed up. Not sure what's going on there...probably didn't pay so someone else got the domain.

Funny, but the boob comment was a freudian slip and not an intentional pun at all...obviously was something unconscious though!!!

I really want a pic of Dani doing stick tounge I LOVE her when she does that!!!
 

Gancho that was great, I didn't think about making the connection between Monita's outfit and Ximena's, but you are right, they are simmilar. The "boobs" comments was also very funny.

My favorite part was Ximena, Paula and Estrella hiding behind Cristian while he was holding the gun and then when he moved and Estrella realized later that everybody had moved with him. One would think that would have been Ximena but the fact it was Estrella was funnier to me.


Carlos, you can use this reproduction list to watch the show on youtube, so far it seems to be complete (for the episodes with weird names):

http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=AF6F9F9CEB36911C&page=5

Tonight's episode starts at the fifth video: frefrerfgre (the one with a duration of 10:07 min)

Jarocha
 

Kris,I just now saw your tribute photo of Pinecone. I'm so sorry. I know how difficult the last weeks must have been for you. I know that she has left you with wonderful memories. What a beautiful and unique cat. She looks to have a great deal of feline diversity in her genetic background.

Carlos
 

Julia, dang I missed Dani sticking her tongue out at Connie. I still have the TIVO recording, so I'll watch that when I get home tonight. I am intrigued by the conflict between these two characters and the obvious trust between the two actresses.

Jarocha, thanks for that address. You are indeed a treasure and a love. I had just found that site 2 wks. ago and had it bookmarked. Imagine my surprise when I clicked on it yesterday afternoon and found what is there now.

Anastasia is certainly striking and attractive, but also a little daunting a even frightening. I'm afraid I wouldn't know quite where to start.

Carlos
 

Gancho I'm sorry for the loss of Pinecone. I can't imagine losing one of my doggies. Our pets become a huge part of our world and the memories they leave us with will always be an incredible treasure.

Carlos, you are welcome, I also found that site a couple of weeks ago and it was great since I'm only watching the show through youtube now. When I saw that it wasn't working anymore I had to quickly find a different way to watch the episodes in order.

So far I've had a blast rewatching every episode, wich says alot, since I usually only read the recaps and rewatch the episodes that seem to be interesting, but so far there has not been a dull moment with this show.

Jarocha
 

Kris, I am so sorry. I treasure that photo as I do all your stories about Pinecone and her good and sweet heart. How lucky we are to have these loving creatures in our lives, if only for a brief time. We lose their presence but never lose the tender memories. And that is both a blessing and a heartache.

love and hugs to you dear lady,
Judy
 

Kris, Great recap, especially under stress. I'm really sorry about Pinecone. Beautiful cat...
Little Danni is a great actress. She has really grown into her part.
And, Beto, he just has way too much fun!
 

Kris, that's a great pic of Pinecone. What a cute kittie. I hope you had a pleasant and relaxing weekend.
 

sorry about Pinecone. BTW grrreat recap. :)
