Thurs 9-17 Gancho - This was a fairly serious episode - Go figure...

Mona opens the door thinking it’s Mau and it’s Beto. Beto wonders why and he says she was thinking about him for something else. She breaks down and cries and Beto turns sweet. He wants her to feel better. He actually says the old Bet is gone and the new working Beto is here and he’ll take care of her and not to worry about the money. He tells her to rest, he’ll watch her sleep.

Tere gets snotty with Mau, she asks him if he’ll fire her too. She doesn’t get why he doesn’t believe Mona and Luisa…he thinks she’s nothing but a liar, but Tere says watch out or you’ll lose the treasure most valuable.

Nieves tells her to get over her fairy tale, they just aren’t real those princes. Mona doesn’t want to hear it and tells them she’ll take care of herself. I loved watching the monkey tug at it’s leash then scratch it’s fleas.

At Mau’s he tells Aldo he didn’t like what he heard yesterday. Just then Coni shows up with Bitty blond chic and her Ma in tow and they want ot says omething to Luisa.

Mona is back training at the gym and Estre shows up to a host of cat calls from the guys and talks to Mona about Beto telling her he is going to take care of her for a change. Estre knows she’s not in love and not to fool herself She knows Mona feels bad. Finally Mona admits it.

So now the little witch says she came to apologize to luisa it was only a joke and they didn’t think she’d get so bent out of shape. The mother starts yelling at teen Luisa (super classy to yell at someone else’s kid I tell ya) that she didn’t have to sick Mona to beat up her little girl. Luisa tells Maira to out with it because she knows Mona didn’t beat on her but mom and Coni double team her telling her to be gracious and accept the apology. Ick. Talk about ratas in the attic…Luisa cries and screams they are all liars and can’t believe Mau is listening to them and she runs off.

Mona goes to church to pray not for her Mom like usual but for lying so much. Estre takes her seat and waits. Mona doesn’t want to give up dreaming of a better life and real love, but she thinks she’s lost her guy so she begs Jesus not to abandon her or Mau and not to take Mau’s kids. She doesn’t want him to get back with her, but she wants him to be happy and she promises to get back in the ring for a next fight.

At Mau’s he chats with Conster. She says she thought it would make things better if she brought the mom and girl over. Coni whines about the kids not liking her, and that maybe this is why he doesn’t think she is right for him. But the important thing for her is that she is by his side and that she’ll help him adopt them no matter what because she cares. Now Mau spews the most profound line that his little cabeza can put together. He doesn’t know if every moment in life has to be happy, but what he does know is that she never lies to him and that he knows her and she walks on solid ground. OOOoooh now that would melt me into accepting a marriage proposal. He tells her she can help with the adoption by marrying him. DOUBLE ICK!!

Jero and Oski the odd couple chase down our cute little Mini driver Fer. They tell Fer he should have talked to them,, his socios who would have helped him get his business resolved and they only would take 30%. Fernando holds his own against these goons and doesn’t fall into their clutches.

Coni of course says yes to marrying him even though it’s not for love, and this has been her dream since she met him. He begs her not to tell anyone yet, that he’ll find the right time to tell the kids himself. She swears she’ll never come between him and his kids and he needs to trust her. Anvil time. She screams after he leaves.

Pau and Gabi chat about her date the night before. Gabi remarks how big her smile is this morning. Sal comes upon this giggle fest and sends Pau off to clean his disgusting office. He tells Gabi he needs her. Gabi tells her she’s not talking to him and anyway if he wants to fire her he may as well as it’s in fashion around there.

At the schoolhouse the evil kids are laughing about the photo of Luisa with the toad. Aldo comes up and grabs the phone and throws in a few punches at the guy. Now this kid knows how to throw cell phones. He slams it into the pavement and it cracks up into pieces. He clearly earned an A in the CEA mobile communication device aggression transfer class. J


Beto goes into Mau’s office knocking after the fact. He begs Mau to listen to him about Mona, that she didn’t deserve to be fired. She meddles where she shouldn’t have but did this out of her big heart trying to defend his daughter. He tells Mau he did protest her firing becauseMona doesn’t need the job he’s going to take care of them. He again is denied being able to tutear Mau, but whoops it came out anyway, or maybe he was telling himself to be careful not to say it. He asks for a salary increase. Mau tells him to talk to Sal.

Mau gets a call from school about what Aldo did and Mau’s on his way.

Mona and Cesar are chatting about her training for her next fight and that Beto is going to help because he’s changed….Ces also is skeptical. Mona has rededicated herself though to boxing, she wants to be herself.

Oski tries to woo Gabi again..she bites not. He manages to tell her that Fer doesn’t exist and prove it with papers showing he has no bank accounts etc, they had him investigated.

Mau goes to the school Aldo says Mona has nothing to do with this. Mau says she does. The three get mad because he never listens to them. They don’t want to be at this school anymore. He finally agrees to change the school but what our little DanI wants is that he not fight with Mona and that he makes up with her. He tells them get used to her being out of their lives.

Oski continues trying to impress Gabi that Fer is fake. She thinks he would have made a good actor and dismisses him. He goes to leave and runs into Sal,
who despite it taking great pain explains to Oski that they have to ally to unmask their foe Fer. Oski agrees, and the unlikely duo with matching raspberries is formed.




Mona back at the ring is training hard with an opponent when slimy Conster shows up. She wants to say a bunch of nasty crap to Mona like stay away from Mau, and she looks better like this than in the little skirts she flirts with Mau in (let’s ask the guys…) and Mona tells her to leave her alone first. She says she could tell the naco boyfriend that she was running around with Mau, but she needs to forget she knew him. Blah blah blah…Calls her apestosa (foul), and to stay in her cloaca (sewer). Here are some good words for us!!

Estre follows her and throws some words her way, Coni replies she’s a gata, naca, and golfa and Estre says you forgot perra, because that’s what I turn into when you mess with my peeps. She tells her maybe Mau will be with her, but he’s in love with Mona and will think of Mona each time he’s with her. Coni sizzles at that and gets in and goes off.

Ivan gets back from Guanajuato, and finds things are still mal around the house. He learns of the joke on Luisa and tells them they have to do something so these kids fall into their own trap. He clearly was worried about Lu.

Gabi is eating with Fer who is talking about his project in Wisconsin. HELLO WISCONSIN!!!! It’s a hotel by a beautiful lake, and he needs the Sermeno Group project too to make it a reality. Gabi asks him to go pay the bill and she rifles through his pockets to pull out his wallet. He comes back and discovers her. She tellshim the truth that she was told he doesn’t exist. He says there is a reason and to read hi full name. Turns out his last name is Retrete Pulido (Clean Toliet) so of course he doesn’t use it. Gabi laughs but apologizes for making light of it.

Nieves is all happy they are setting up dinner together waiting for the man of the house. Said man comes in with shirt that says give your heart what it likes (or similar). Mona wants to talk to him.

At Mau’s Coni is pissed because Mau is moving the kids to another school. He explains the story but she is stuck on the fact that he didn’t ask her first and well if they are going to get married, that has to change. Aldo hears this part and is impactado.

Next Mona tells Beto she doesn’t want him to hear it from gossip. The man she fell in love with is Mau. Dum dum dum dumm.

My goodness. Sounds like I missed another sizzler, Kris. Will have to rewind the tape and hope hope hope it recorded. Sorry to hear that Conster as you call her is making progress with our "cuerpazo sin cabeza". Not good.

Thanks for all those great pictures and for starting my day off with one good gancho!
 

Thanks for the recap and pics Kris. Like Judy I'll have to cue this up and watch though I will probably FF through the Coni parts. I know villains are evil for a reason but when they torment children I really can't take it.

Also thanks for your recap Sylvia. As others posted you were on fire!
 

Kris, I love your recap and enjoyed this episode a lot. As ever, your pictures add a huge amount of texture to an already wonderful recap.

I'm wanting to dislike this new guy, but cannot find a good reason. In fact, So far he seems to be a decent kinda neat guy. I'm still pulling for Sal.

I agree that the Conster is insufferable, but she sure does dress well, She looks so sexy in the clothes she chooses without them being overly tight, revealing, or vulgar. She looks as though she would smell like she just stepped out of the shower. Besides she looks just like my old high school flame, the lovely little clarinetist SherryB.

Poor Mao is as dumb as a sack of hammers, and to make matters worse, he really has become Senór Crankypants here lately. I know that Moni is an accomplished liar, but the blind trust that he has in Coni is truly perplexing.

Wowee, I can't believe how much happened last night! I won't be able to watch until tonight. Would you believe that after my play last night I was in a huge traffic jam for 45 minutes!?! I didn't get home until 12:30; thank goodness we swapped nights. And of course I overslept...gah!

Great recap, loved the pics, you rock Gancho.

Mau oh Mau you incredible dunderhead. Proposing to Coni? She's toxic and her lies are way worse than Monita's. Well, my mom would have said all lies are equally bad but Coni is mean mean mean so there you are.

I was wondering where Ivan was. He was in Guanajuato? I'm going there in October. Which reminds me, I will need a sub for one or two Thursdays in October starting October 15.

Gotta dash, I'm late for work...
 

You're right, Kris, it was a serious episode - not nearly as much fun. But it did advance the plot, and not in a good way, consarn it! But, as always you did a great job 'splaining all the things we missed or mistranslated.

Carlos, I had heard 'dumb as a box of rocks' but 'sack of hammers' is terrific. I think one reason he's Sr. Crankypants is that he is yet to understand the difference between 'bossing' at his company and 'daddy-ing' teenagers, especially highly offended teens who need to be heard. Let's hope he works that out soon. Anybody who can make Alonslo on QE look brilliant (well...) just ain't wrapped too tight!
 

Aldo's cellular abuse: excellent. Well done, lad. Now work a little more on your seduction skills.

Carlos
 

Yeah, I was kind of like, what's with this Mau guy all of a sudden...definitely exhibits all those nasty traits that Hombre laid out for us. He is not treating the kids that well at the moment and what all of a sudden he is just going to not believe them or Mona anymore when he somehow overlooked all this stuff before? The writing just didn't make his transaition very well. The all or nothing approach just doesn't work well. Anyway, thanks everyone. My bet is on the monkey!!1 I hope he is treated humanely...
 

Great recap Gancho! It seems this is our first more serious episode.

I think Mau has some anger issues, maybe this problem with Monita was the last straw for him. At this time Beto is looking more prince charming than him. The scene when Beto comforts Mona at the begining was sweet.

Coni looks more evil when her plans succeed. Poor Luisa, but I loved watching Aldo protecting his sister.

Sylvia: Are you going to the Festival Cervantino? I always want to go but can't find the free time.

Jarocha
 

Yes I am going to the Festival Cervantino! I'm so excited. I have been wanting to go for years, I have a friend who bought a house there and she goes every year. This year she invited me as she does every year and instead of being "too busy" as usual I immediately purchased a ticket and told her yes. I am flying down on October 15th and will return a week later. Wheeee!!!
 

That's awesome! I bet you'll have a great time. The program this year looks amazing and the city itself is so beautiful.

Jarocha
 

Sylvia...Awesome. I hope you'll post a little article with pics on the CarayCaray page. Remember this is an educational blog and we'd love learning more about that festival and Guanajato where you're going.
 

I agree that it was just one lie too many and that last lie was a doozy. I can see Mau putting all the previous frustration into this intense anger and mistrust now.

Thanks for the efforts to help me find episode # 60 on the net. It didn't work but I appreciate your attempts to help.

Guerra from Syracuse
 

Well you know what the problem is,

NO XIMENA!!!!!! NO CRISTIAN!!!!!


We miss them!!!!!!!!
 

The opening of Cadenas de Amargura consisted of shots of Guanajuato since that's were the story took place. I remember wanting to go since I was a child and I loved that novela. I wish ENDA would have used it again instead of Real del Monte, those old buildings and the music gave it a haunting feeling. However, in the Festival Cervantino the city looks to be full of life.

Jarocha
 

Wow. Thanks for that link Jarocha. The shots of the city made me think of Europe. The music too. Could have been the beginning of a French film. Imagine that was quite a show, with Diana Bracho playing the Carlota lead. That actress plays bitterness and self-righteousness so well.
