Sortilegio-February 4, 2010--The Devil Walks Among us and His Name is Bruno
The boys argue over MJ. Alex wins and Bruno leaves. Instead of having a family dinner Alex decides to take MJ out to dinner and enjoy the rest of their evening. Bruno heads back to his Chalet and rants and raves and has a tantrum. Eric shows up and wants to know how things are going. Bad idea. Bruno bites his head off and says that if he can’t have her then neither can Alex.
Tonight.
Alex and MJ arrive at the restaurant where their table is waiting.
Dr. and Mrs. E-vil are discussing Sandra. Dr. E wants to know the scoop with MJ and Alex. Elena explains they are divorced but they live together. Dr. E doesn’t look pleased. There is a knock on the door and who should appear but Useless. Even though he is out of his coma he is still—well, useless. He tells Dr. E that he’s heading for Merida. Dr. E doesn’t think that his body is ready. Useless doesn’t care. He wants to go to Merida and bring Sandra back. But first he’s going to pay a visit to Bruno. Uh oh! He says he’s going to need some money. Of course says Dr. E. The phone rings and it is someone from Porfirio’s house saying that Porfirio’s condition has worsened. Dr. E is on his way because he doesn’t want the old guy to kick the bucket before he signs his will.
Back to the land of sunshine and roses MJ and Alex are having dinner. She wants to know about Useless and why Damian brought up his name. Ok, let’s get this straight. His name is Bruno not Damian—Damian is his second name. Useless is friends with the Mexitrash crowd. In fact, he’s the founding member. He explains that Useless is the father of Raquel’s baby. MJ wants to know if Robertoo knows about the baby and he says yes. When Raquel was pregnant Useless disappeared and no one knew where he went. Alex tells her about being kidnapped. She wants to remember. We were happy. He asks her to dance. He sings to her as they dance. She likes it. Lots of smiling and almost kissing. At least we didn’t have to hear the theme song again. Finally they kiss.
Back at the Casa they head upstairs. He thanks her for going with him. Then there’s the awkward, “Do I kiss her or do I not?” scenario at the bedroom door. He wants to come in for just a little bit so they can talk about some other things. R i g h t He wants to know when she wants to go to the hospital to have the tests done. She says whenever you want. Alex thinks they have to talk to Porfirio and tell him the truth. She agrees. Reluctantly he leaves. There’s a split screen of them thinking about each other. Sigh…
Bruno is in bed when the phone rings. It’s Dr. E informing him that Useless is heading for Merida tomorrow. Don’t you fail me. Bruno assures him everything will be fine.
Fer and Vicky are drinking coffee. She is telling him about the dinner and that Bruno came and everything went to Hell in a handbasket. Stamp me stupid for thinking it would go smoothly. He’s glad because he got to have coffee with her. Seriously dude, you are such a wuss. He wants to talk to her about Katia. It seems Bruno terminated their relationship and she is devastated. He doesn’t care why it ended but he’s glad that it did. They switch to the topic of Maura being involved in the kidnapping. Fer thinks she's involved because she is so obsessed with Alex. She wants to help him with Katia. Vicky loves Fer and he loves her and he doesn’t want her to think about an end to their relationship. There is no end. Snore—FF>>
Paula, Felipa, and EZ are sitting around shooting the breeze. It is unanimous that they are glad that MJ and Alex are together again. They are so in l-u-u-v. Felipa wants to know if Paula has a hunk-a, hunk-a, of burnin’ love to call her own. Well, sort of—but he’s married so maybe not. But then again, there is this one guy---(and we all know who that is –blech).
Dr E gets back from Porfirio’s. Elena wants to know what happened. Did he die? Like she really cares. No, but he doesn’t have much time. He wants to see Sandra. That can’t happen. No, duh, you stupid heifer! We can’t lose the money. We need it. Elena wants to know what they are gong to do. Dr. E tells her to stop bothering him with all these questions. He thinks they need to get Useless to take the fall for the kidnapping of MJ. Everything depends on it.
Next day. MJ is in Tony’s room and Alex comes in on his way to work. They talk about the babies. She thanks him for everything last night. He was glad that she went with him. Vicky wants to get some things for the babies. She says she doesn’t have any money. He tells her not to worry about it. She wants to know if her mom went back to Toluca. Praise the Lord, she did. He leaves for work and gives her a kiss. Paula is downstairs playing the piano. She wants to know how everything is going with MJ. He says not too bad. She says she’s bored and wants to know if he has a job for someone with her fabulous computer skills. He says he’ll see what he can do. On his way out he asks EZ to fix the phone in his bedroom. Paula is excited about having a new job that she doesn’t even have yet. Alex shows up at Bruno’s chalet. Bruno wants to know what he wants. Alex says it’s MJ and not Sandra. Bruno is like, so? It doesn’t matter, she’s not your woman right now. Alex says that will be rectified shortly. Bruno makes that awful clicking thing he does and says don’t be too sure. They have a stare down and I couldn’t hear what they said.
Paula is excited about having a job. MJ is concerned about calling her mom to let her know she is ok. Paula doesn’t want her to talk to Elena because she doesn’t deserve to know anything about their lives. MJ wins and calls Elena. She tells her that she is still confused. He keeps wanting me to remember that I am MJ. Paula chimes in and says that she is not Sandra. Elena explains that Useless found her and brought her home. MJ says they are telling her the medicine that Jorge gave her has messed with her memory. Elena tells her not to take any medicine they give her. You need to come home. Porfirio is very bad. He doesn’t have much time. He needs to see you. I don’t want him to die. You have to come.
Tio is talking to Porfirio—he wants to see his granddaughter. He suspects something is wrong. He wants to know what is going on. Porfirio makes Tio promise to tell him what is going on. There’s a knock on the door. It is the doctor. He orders him out. The doc says he needs the oxygen. They just want me to sign my will. Tio tries to convince him that he needs the oxygen.
MJ gives her mom a phone kiss. Paula looks like she wants to hurl. Bruno enters and rushes to MJ and tries to give her a kiss. Paula gets in between them. She pushes him away. Victoria comes down the stairs and Bruno rushes to her and greets her with a kiss. Vicky and MJ are going shopping for the babies. He stands behind then on the stairs of death waiting and watching. When they leave he comes down the stairs but Paula stops him and tells him what a scumbag he is. If they only knew just how bad you really are. He tells her to shut up. She doesn’t know anything. He either tries to head-butt her or kiss her, I’m not sure which and she tells him to get away from her. Felipa seconds that and he walks out with a snort.
Alex and Fer are at the office discussing how things are going. Alex says not too bad. He held her in his arms and kissed her and thought she would remember. But she is still confused. Fer tells him he has to have patience. Alex is worried that she might feel something for Bruno.
Letty comes to visit Lissette. She says she doesn’t have money for something. They talk and Letty leaves. Hernan comes in and Lissette asks him for a favor. Sorry FF>>
Useless enters his apartment. Bruno is there waiting for him. (This doesn’t look good. Dun, dun, dun). Useless looks surprised (but what else is new) and wants to know what he is doing there and how did he get in. He made a copy of the key. Useless wants to know who told him he would be here. Ah, the good Dr. Kruger. Useless still doesn’t get what is going on. He says something and I don’t know if it is because he is still under the influence of his drug induced coma or what, but I can’t understand him. Bruno laughs and says isn’t it obvious? They lied to you except for one thing. You are taking the fall for the kidnapping of MJ. He says it was Sandra he brought to Toluca not MJ. He grabs Bruno by the throat and bends him over the bar. Muscles bulge. Bruno’s face gets red. Just when it looks like all is lost for Bruno he kicks Useless and he falls to the floor. That gives Bruno the chance he was waiting for. He whips out a pistol with a silencer and POP. Oh snap! <
Vicky and MJ get home from shopping. Victoria and Felipa talk about MJ and how sad it is that she can’t remember. They can’t understand how her own mother could treat her like that. FF>>
Bruno is on the phone with Dr. E-vil. It’s done. I killed him. It was very quick. He had no idea it was coming. I left him in the apartment. Dr. E says not to tell anyone. Then he says something I don’t understand. Bruno says I don’t understand. Dr. E tells him to just do what I say.
Back at the hospital—Alex reassures her everything will be ok. He promises her that if they determine she is Sandra he will let her go home to her mother. What if they find something. Still insecure, he wants to know what she feels for Bruno. She says nothing. Nothing happened. Hernan says they are ready. Hernan says they are ready. She looks nervous.
Dr. and Mrs. E-vil are discussing Bruno’s latest accomplishment. What happened to the body? They will think he died because he was guilty of the kidnapping. We will wait and see.
Paula is telling the gang about her new job. She wants to know where Gabe is. Oh, he’s at home working on some art. Pedro wants to know how MJ is. Paula tells him about her going to the hospital for some tests.
MJ is gong into the MRI. Hernan comes out and says everything is fine.
Gabe is back at the house working on a statue. Paula shows up. I guess you are too busy. He says he’ll fix her something to drink. She touches his hand as he gives her her drink. She smiles coquettishly at him. He asks her to go with him tomorrow. She says it’s a date and kisses him on the cheek. He is in heaven. Like we didn’t see that one coming.
At the hospital everything is fine. You aren’t Sandra you are MJ. She is overcome with emotion. You will begin to remember little by little. Everyone is happy for her.

Can someone tag this for me? Thanks. One of the dogs unplugged my clunker laptop and I lost the part I hadn't saved so I had to go back and redo the end. So if I left something out please feel free to add or correct.
After Letty leaves, Dr. Hernan comes in. Lisette tells him she wants to pay for a donor transplant for Letty. The good Doc says she is doing a noble and good thing.
too bad ulysses lived for such a short time. And died so horribly. Other than living off other people's money, he did no real harm to anyone
Bruno--growing more psychopathic with his 2nd murder. bruno starting to feel invincible. Maybe someone can clear up: did bruno plant the silencer part of the gun in Raquel's house so she will be blamed for the murder a la hysterical, dumped lover?
also would love to know what the evil Dr did tell bruno after bruno said he had taken care of Ulysses.
I think it was something to the effect of don't do any thing stupid. Is that right? Please clarify.
hope someone is reminding MJ to take her meds.
Was it me or was Bruno scared there for a minute, it looked like Useless was getting the best of him in that fight until dirty low down Bruno knee him down south.
So the three stooges set up Useless to be killed by Bruno.
Anon 2:42 Bruno hid the silencer part in his own chalet. Another mistake by the our master idiot he wiped the gun cleaned of his fingerprints.
But according to all the CSI shows if you shoot a gun it leaves traces on the shooters hands, so he's making it look like Useless committed suicide but hopefully the police won't fall for it.
Maybe Vicki's wig is too tight and it's cutting off the circulation in her head that's why she's still stupid about the obvious plots that's going on around her.
Loved Paula telling MJ not to call the barracuda who is their mother.
Poor Porfirio i wish he didn't have to die, glad Alex offered to take MJ to go see him.
Alex telling MJ if after the test prove she was Sandra he would take her back to her mother.I love this guy he's has his moments of incorrect behavior but overall i would say no to him.
If she was really Sandra i would have stayed with him anyway after a offer like that. By now she sees the difference between his household and Elena's and Dr.Demented's.
I can't believe i'm saying that Casa Lombardo's is wholesome compared to house of horrors that Elena lives at with Dr. Demented.
Bruno did indeed plant the silencer in Raq's chalet, in case the cops don't believe Useless killed himself, because of his guilt/fear of being discovered in the kidnapping, then accusing Raq of murdering her estranged lover is the back-up. What a great brother Bruno is! Dr. Demented thougth that this was a stupid idea and just complicates things. He is also determined that Useless's body not be discovered for at least 72 hours. After that point, the decompsotion will be so much that no one will be able to see the tell-tale signs of what Dr. Demented did to him medically. There will be no link between Useless and his clinic.
I've been thinking this for some time, but the Paula/Gabe match-up seems to be what the Elena/Pedro match-up must have been like. Both Elena and Pedro were from humble origins, she was beautiful and ambitious, he was a simple guy on an upward tragectory when they met as young people. She saw enough potential in him to marry him, but once married found that he still couldn't provide her with the rich lifestyle she craved. She eventually found someone who could, and left Pedro (and two of the kids she produced with him) without even a backwards glance.
The fact that Gabe is now earning some cash, with potential for much more, has made him more appealing in Paula's eyes. She knows the effect she has him, and last night used it. He's putty in her hands. What seems to make her different than Elena is that she has a kind heart, the capacity to love, and a solid sense of right from wrong. Hopefully these things will allow her to actually fall in love with Gabe (and not just his money) and appreciate him for who he is. Afterall, she was first impressed with Roberto's rich lifestyle, but actually formed a real, loving friendship with him. Perhaps the same will happen when she spends time with Gabe.
Thought the Alex/MJ-S dance was soooo romantic (and I also was glad they switched the music up a bit and not to hear Sortilegio de Amor LOL)
For a brief second, I thought Useless might be the victor in the struggle with Bruno but I think true to novela truisms, his end has to come at the hands of one of the people he has most hurt so Alex, MJ or Victoria not Useless.
CubsFan
Which now brings in the question if Vicki had to choose between which twin she save let's say the death penalty hypothetically who would she choose.
I would say Bruno because she still doesn't want to believe how evil and mentally sick and twisted he is.You guys caught how he was trying to charm her when she was coming downstairs to take MJ out with her to shop.
Where was this Bruno who was calling her a ramera and leaking her affair with Antonio to the newspaper reporter?
This has to be one of the best made tv series out there right now.
Vivi, to your point on the Paula/Gabe, Elena/Pedro comparison: As Pedro bustles around the market shop, I think I can see the young Pedro, who perhaps had a future and maybe, how Elena could have been attracted to him years ago. He is the only one who seems to have a business head and is certainly the most motivated of the entire bunch, ie., Meche gabbing, Cucho strumming the guitar. I can see the logic in your comment. One issue I have with Gabe is the unusual expression he always has on his face...he needs to join Gabriel Soto in some advanced acting classes. If that sound mean, I don't mean for it to be, just trying to help!!!
Am I the only one? While I still see the appeal of Alex, the romance between he and MJ has died for me. The novela started with MJ confused about her loyalty to Paula and Pedro vs Alex, and here we are at the end with her confusion between the Lombardos and her stellar Madre...ELENA. This mind erasing drugs story line isn't my cup of tea.
Vivi, I thought you nailed it with the Paula/Gab and Elena/Pedro comparison. But is Pau doing this just because of the talk she had with Felipa? The hand-touching scene just didn't work for me well.
I must say that Bruno just keep on piling stupid stuff on top of crap. I was so surprised when he shot Useless but then I started to laugh. Those writers really worked up his character to the max.
Good thing MJ was finally told last night.....so so tired of her saying she's Sandra 'til. At least that made me like Pau's character for standing up against their evil madre anyway.
Vivi--I love your comparison between Elena/Pedro/Paula/Gabe. I can't wait for your own recaps.
On the aftermath of the Useless murder--
Bruno wanted to call the police so they would find the body. Elena says what about gun powder residue. Dr. E says no let the body putrify because in several days they wouldn't be able to test for it and the staged suicide would be more believable.
Also, when Useless walked in his apartment and asked Bruno how he got in, Bruno said they were Raquel's copies of the keys and it wasn't hard to get them from her chalet. They were the keys that Bruno was returning to her chalet (the famous watermelon sofas belong to her chalet).
Newbie in Md
Bruno...what's to say anymore? Little moment of "oh, crap" there in the car, but it passed quickly and he had no qualms hiding the cap in Raquel's place. He knows she's no longer in his corner and that spelled her doom as far as he's concerned. He would do the same to his own mother if she EVER fully stopped giving him the benefit of the doubt. But as the Queen of Denial, she's safe so far.
Yep, they are pairing Paula with Gabe for lack of anyone else to put her with I guess. Just not loving that. Add it to the list of bummer wrap-ups.
I still want Fer to beat the tar out of someone on behalf of Katia. Have a lot of pent up frustration this week can you tell?
So, Useless is now history. His end matched his character. I was also wondering about gunshot residue. Apparently Bruno doesn't watch too much TV. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk "I am Bruno, the omnipotent. I don't need to watch TV. Whatever I decide is right, good and true, is, because it is my opinion."
So, , , is Bruno a psychopath or a sociopath?
Gabe & Paula.... eeeeew. That storyline will wrap up as quickly (and unsatisfyingly) as a Janet Dailey novel. I can see it now... she'll sell his art stuff on etsy with her computer skills and they'll produce kids that are sad-sack chatterboxes. Barf.
Why would MJ be drinking wine, while she's on brain-altering drugs already? Why do I watch this stuff? Where's my telenovela beanie hat?
Did anyone else think it strange that Bruno came to do the deed in the snazzy sports car (easily noticed and remembered) and rolled back the convertible top so anyone could get a good look at him before we drove off with a great vrroooom? The two guys standing around surely noticed the hot car, no? And the guy who brushed past them?
Hopefully this mistake will come back to bit him in his tightly toned little butt.
The scene of Useless with the hole in his head bleeding on the floor left me queasy.
I think Vicky is completely lost to reason where Bruno is concerned. I have no hope for her. Their relationship is more than a little Oedipal and is not going to get fixed in this TN. Vicky is stupid but more able to see Raquel's flaws. Their relationship is a mess but not near as twisted as Vic's is with Bruno.
Raquel looked good again last night. That's two days into wardrobe and makeup redemption.
I thought this was a really thorough recap and your editorial comments are always appreciated. I especially like "Blech" and that you >>FF through the real yawner conversations.
Well, last night we saw the limit of W Levy's talent. I predict we will not see him in a song and dance number on Broadway anytime soon. Was the off-key croaking of a raven Wm's voice? Wow. Wm my man, whisper the lyrics, why don't you? With that voice, the only thing likely to follow YOU home is a wolf.
In the end,it is Maria Jose's turn to have amnesia. This time medically induced.
A sociopath is a person who is plagued with a personality disorder that is marked by traits of anti-social behavior. On the other hand, a psychopath is a person who has an anti-social personality disorder that is seeping with an aggressive, perverted, criminal mind with an amoral behavior that lacks empathy and remorse. You may find both are personality disorders that are anti-social and find no difference between the two. But the facts state otherwise. There are marked differences between a sociopath and psychopath.
Difference Between Sociopath and Psychopath
There are very few differentiations between sociopaths and psychopaths. There are many medical dictionaries that consider them synonymous. Both, sociopaths and psychopaths are involved in antisocial behavior that is related to extreme violence. Though psychiatrists group sociopaths and psychopaths together, criminologists have given some difference between sociopaths and psychopaths.
Behavior of a Sociopath Behavior of a Psychopath
Sociopaths are very disorganized people Psychopaths are obsessively organized people
Sociopaths cannot maintain normal relationships with their family, friends and co-workers Psychopaths tend to have normal relationships with the people around them and are even able to take care of old parents and get married.
Sociopaths are not able to maintain a steady employment or house. Psychopaths are very successful career-wise . Their ability to organize makes them very likable and trustworthy among people. Psychopaths tend to understand the emotions of others, but they themselves do not feel any emotions. Thus, it is very easy for them to manipulate people with emotional games.
Sociopaths are found living at the periphery of the society. A study carried out with the homeless people of New York as subjects, showed that most of them were sociopaths. Psychopaths are found living in large apartments and houses and cannot be distinguished from normal people.
Sociopaths are very erratic and unplanned with their acts of extreme violence. There inability to plan ahead and be organized, makes them leave trails of clues. This makes it very easy to identify and zero-in on them. Psychopaths tend to plan for years before they carry out their act of violence. They plan every single detail of their crime and ensure that they remain undetected. This organized and detailed planning makes it very difficult to catch them.
Very nice analysis on the possible Elena/Pedro hook-up. You have provided us with a very thoughtful and hopeful look ahead for Paula as well. I hope Gabe is a real budding Picasso, though. I think Paula's love of luxury will not be soothed by a sweet romance and hot young romance is no substitute for a reasonably comfortable lifestyle once she moves into middle age. It is a good thing her sissy is rich.
No time to elaborate, but he is written as a sociopath. His grandiosity makes him look crazy, but he still lives in the same reality as his fellows.
He simply doesn't believe that any rules,boundaries or social norms apply to him or the satisfaction of his immediate needs.
IMHO
EJ
I think Bruno's leaving the silencer at Raquel's chalet was a mistake. Yes, Raquel had a motive against Ulises, but Bruno may have been seen, Raquel may have an alibi, etc. It would have been better for the bad guys just to leave Ulises there. No one except Jorge, Elena and Bruno even knew he returned to Merida, so no one would be looking in his apartment, and the body could go undiscovered for a long time.
On the other hand, how can they blame Ulises for anything if his body isn't found? I'm confused. Fortunately, with only two weeks left, the writers will explain all. I hope.
The brainscan showed that MJ had never been on drugs (at least not recreational drugs, of course she's been on Jorge's brew). And they also found something like a distension of her womb, meaning she had given birth recently. So those two things prove to MJ that she's MJ, and Hernan said she could confirm these studies with any other doctor, if she liked. She's still frustrated that she can't remember, though (as are we).
I thought Useless was going to squeeze Bruno's head like a grape. He seemed to morph into the incredible Hulk succumbing only to a well placed kick.
Lissette's scenes are very moving and the actress is really drawing me in.
Diana
I didn't quite get how they can blame Useless after killing him, either. Huh?
I really don't like the Gabe/Paula pairing as I said yesterday. Yuck, it just seems like it's beneath her and not like her. She fights for what she believes in or wants. Why would she compromise like that? I still think they could have hooked her with Roberto. Oh well.
So, then Wiley Bruno glides head down pass people and proceeds to let the top down on his get-away car. When Dr. Megele told him don't do anymore stupid things I said too too late.
1. I do not now, nor have I ever practiced as a Criminal Psychologist. My specialty is conflict, not abnormal and criminal behavior.
2. My opinions are a peculiar result of my training and experience. My training was completed a long time ago (1981) in a most peculiar place (Berkeley). (Smile).
3. It would be irresponsible of me to offer "definitive" opinions on the character and psychological makeup of a fictional person, such as Bruno. Bruno is the creation of a group of writers, directors and a talented actor, all of whom have added their own slant on the character. No actual answer is possible in the case of the question of sociopath or psychopath.
Whew. Can you tell I am married to a lawyer? LOL
Did anyone catch that look Alex gave MJ when she said her mom had taught her to drive? "No me digas" (you don't say). Was that incredulous look about Elena or about MJ driving?
I was very touched when Lisette wanted to pay for Lety's bone marrow transplant. Her illness has definitely changed her from the shallow young girl she seemed to be before.
MJ told Alex that she needed to keep taking the medicine Dr. E-vil prescribed because her mother told her she'd relapse into drug addiction without it. Elena needs a 1,000 pound anvil to fall right on her head.
Bonney Churros, your point about the difficulty of shooting yourself so directly in the center of the forehead and not leaving any prints on the doorknob is well taken. Hopefully the Mérida CSI team are as smart as you.
How satisfying was it to see Bruno being choked? I loved every minute. Actually, I differ from some opinions here. I liked Useless much better after he came out of the coma. His very short hair was more attractive to me than the bleached blonde surfer dude look he sported before. And he seemed serious, outraged about what Elena and E-vil were telling him about Bruno. And no shark grins at all!
Anon - thanks for the info re: socio/psyco paths. I think Bruno is a sociopath.
Vivi in DC - I agree, Bruno is BSC.
Yes, the choking scene was very satisfying. Since we are into science fiction in this novela, (mind erasing drugs) why couldn't the bullet have entered and left one of them, ricocheted off the frame of one the gastly pictures in the condo, come back and killed the other one...simply said, two pajaros with one shot! Saves on blanks and leaves only 6 or so tough villians to worry with.
And on another note, I propose a twins baby switch was pulled on Victoria. Elena got the good twins and ruined one of those but Victoria got the bad twins that Elena would have been quite happy with.
Cubs fan, according to novela rules, the heros and heroines are never murderers no matter how much suffering they have endured under the hands of the bad guys. For that reason, Bruno if he is to die will either be sentenced by a court of law or by an enemy. But never by Alex, MJ or Vicki.
A hypothetical question was presented asking which one of Viki's twins she would prefer to have the death penalty served on. and concluded that Viki would prefer to get the death penalty. The writer concluded that Viki would prefer to have Raquel put to death. Since Raquel hasn't done anything that would warrent the death penalty such as premeditated murder, I think the hypothetical question not in keeping with the level of denial that Viki is exercising. I don't see hers as criminal,cold hearted or pathological.
As far as Gabe and Paula, I think they deserve each other. Opposites attract. That shrill voice of hers combined with her spunk will either animate him or drive him to drink. A man with a normal supply of testerone would find her hard to take.
I think, as folks at the APA are working so hard to prepare a new DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders)for publication in 2013, we should submit the Bruno case study for consideration of a new designation called "Bat-shit-crazy" and Carlota's case describing the absolutely hopelessly whack-ass, evil and obsessed as "Simply Car-loca".
Oh, this is so much more fun than working.
Tee hee hee.
EJ, taking amuch needed break from real deadlines to enjoy my time with mis amigos on Caray.
With the facts that Vicki has before her of both of the twins odious and antisocial behavior it was put forth as what i wrote it was a HYPOTHETICAL question that's all which would she choose to save.
This question is ask concerning the way Vicki has been shown to us how she feels about her twins if she absolutely had to choose between the two twins that is all.
Vivi - I'm gonna have to re-watch the 'no me digas'-look.
Ale singing to MJ - sigh. That would make me weak in the knees. I do like that he's probably hungering/longing for her.
Paula and Ale as bro/sis-in-laws - very cute!
Bruno is truly despicable. Looked like he was being choked for real - wonderful acting!
I also thought Alex singing was too cute! He doesn't have a great singing voice, but it was such a sincere attempt at flattering MJ. Adorable.
Bruno is do freakin mean. I know that's very obvious, but to betray his twin like that...what a jerk.
I was a little surprised that Useless died. I guess they're gonna kill all of the bad guys. Bruno, you wait your turn.
Btw love the title, Connie.
When the final comes to pass i give you my take on Maura and the original Tu O' Nadie too. So much what i want to truly say ties into the original and i will not spoil for you others what i know.
This also include the original writer Maria Zaratinni who also wrote Tu O' Nadie.
Someone commented the other day about William wearing his scruffy beard, i'm not saying this is true but maybe he had a option to wear that or a mustache. In the original Andres garcia had a full black not too thick mustache. So maybe Carla gave William a choice.
You may have to become the TN critic for the New York Times. Nice analysis and character study!
As to Maura's fate, hmmm. Her sister seems to be set up to act as her conscience,maybe she will just "get it" if Lissette gives her what for? Or will she self-destruct a la Barbara Greco in MEPS?
EJ
THEN I wouldn't put the top down in my fancy, easily recognizwd sports car so EVERYONE can get a good look at me???????
Bruno should get it for stupidity alone.
Pity, Ulises just comes out of a drug induced coma & now this!! That was a surprise. Now Raquel will be on the off Bruno list.
Anon, my drinking buddy, having seen most of Sorti, I am now even more interested in your thoughts on its comparison to the original, Tu O’ Nadie.
EJ.... TN New York Times critic, for that I’d need my Caray Caray friends and in particular, the one with a psychoanalytical background....Berkeley 1981(?)
daisy...”So sad her own sister began (became!) unimportant in that ultimate goal when she needed her most.” So many of the situations in our novelas are silly or funny...Lissete alone in the hospital was very hard..
susanlynn...”Maybe THAT'S what the title is referring to...Al's irrepressible charm”. I hadn’t thought about it, but I think you have connected some dots...remember, there is a caramel brown eye in the Sorti intros.
Alex NEVER would have married Maura. She was nothign more than a friend, a pretty bedtime buddy. That's it.
I know you are an attorney and are aware of the differences in legal systems of the US and Mexico. So the results may be different if you account for both countries
To me that sounds like Alex dumped her because if Maura had dumped him, why should she be hanging out at Casa Lombardo trying to get him back?
I really liked Ale singing to MJ.
Anon 04:56:00 PM I can"t wait to here about the differences between Tu O' Nadie and Sortilegio.
I watched LFMB first and then yo soy betty la fea , and very much preferred LFMB at least without all the extensions and the way they ruined the endings. :(
"Some good looking guys just can't seem to help themselves. They just seem to be programmed to put the moves on women. They can't seem to switch off their charm." That was my first husbands excuse.
Didn't like MJ still saying she is Sandra nor her call to her madre.

Well I guess we all know now that Bruno is going DOwNNNNNNN. Just a matter of time....
When he got in his fancy car ,,,just for a moment it looked like he had some remorse.....then he smiled and drove off......Jerk !
I love Maria Jose, ....but does she not have a mind of her own...at her age always listening...to her mother.....take the med's or you'll be a drug addict again ? what is that ?
Can she really care for baby Tony ?
again...Im just waiting for the passion to return to my 2 favorite people Alex and MJ,
and I don't care if Alex can't sing he could snuggle my ear any day !
"Maybe Tomorrow...."
since I got here late....
"Maybe This evening"
