Corazon Salvaje, April 14, 2010 Where oh Where Has Our Dear Cheryl Gone?

Jeri has graciously prepared a recap for us today:

Starting with the new scenes, at the reception Rodrigo, Leonarda and Noel have their heads together, and Leonarda wonders what in the world makes that fellow hate them so much; Rodrigo declares Juan is just insane and he's going to show him who's who. But Noel thinks there must be something behind it and wants to talk to the man. Leonarda is furious with Noel and his fascination with justice, which always just gets in the way.

In his jail cell, Juan rues that he didn't kill Rodrigo at the church when he had the chance; but this train leads him to envision again Regina running to defend her father, and Juan has an epiphany: Regina is a very brave woman. He straightens up and realizes that she would defend her loved ones to the death. Clearly he admires her. Juan repeats her name wonderingly, "Regina...Regina..."

Continuing their conversation, Leonarda wants Juan put away forever; Noel objects, but Rodrigo reminds Noel they put away another man like
that a long time ago. And Noel declares he's always regretted it.
He's not going to let that happen again. Leonarda informs Noel sharply that the man is a danger to them, and Noel's the only one denying it. Rodrigo places his hand on Leonarda's tenderly and agrees with her; this doesn't pass Noel unnoticed.

At the club, Jimena helps Lulu as they rush in with a flurry from shopping. Lulu notices Jimena appears so sad, and Jimena declares sometimes she's sorry she ever met Gabriel shipboard, if he's only
ever going to see her as a friend -- a simple gypsy not fit for him.
Lulu envies her that she at least found love once in her life -- which Lulu has not. Jimena reads Lulu's palm and finds there that she will indeed find love; it will not be easy, but he will come to know that she is the love of his life. Lulu is delighted and wants to know who it might be.

Segue to Noel's face at the reception, where he is feeling like three's a crowd. He says Leonarda and Rodrigo seem to get along very well, and he's only bothering them; then he rises to leave. The happy couple remains and gossips conspiratorially behind Noel's back, how he is a weak man, always was and that he's still a Juarista and criticizes the current President, Díaz. They roll their eyes and toast each other happily.

At the beach shack, all the boyz agitatedly discuss getting Juan out of jail. Remigio says he went to find Gabriel, but had to leave a message. Remigio is distraught that Juan can't seem to escape his destiny of love and vengeance and will pay dearly.

At the reception, Noel runs into Regina and when asked admits that loneliness seems to be his constant companion; Regina denies it for her own part, but clearly it's her constant companion, too. She doesn't want Noel worrying about her. She hopes her love for Renato and her sister will change her feelings over time. (More like the love of a good hunk.)

In the jail, Juan tries to convince himself this whole thing was Aimee's fault for forcing herself on him; but it doesn't wash, and he knows it's his own fault he got himself into this. At the reception, Aimee is starting to be a real pill to Regina, rubbing her happiness with Renato in Regina's face by making Regina toast to them with Renato's special drink he named after Aimee.

Gabriel arrives at the beach shack, and the boyz all gang up and run off to the jail en masse. At the jail, the sheriff is arranging a little "accident" for Juan with another prisoner. Ha, ha, I'm thinking. This guy isn't a patch on Juan. He should be wearing the red shirt. But the sheriff is rubbing his hands thinking of Rodrigo's bribe as he sends the hapless prisoner off on his errand.

The boyz burst into the jail office right then and the cowardly
sheriff calls for the guards. The boyz are pretty angry alright.
They've had run ins with this crooked cop before. Gabriel informs the sheriff that he is Juan's attorney, but neither that nor their outrage will bust Juan out that night. The sheriff claims he's waiting till morning to see if anyone brings charges, and they have to come back then (after the other guy kills Juan). It's so funny right before the bunch leaves: Hummingbird looks the sheriff in the eye and threatens, "WE'LL BE BACK." Remigio grabs Hummingbird and totes him roughly out of the office.

At the reception, just when Regina thinks she couldn't feel any worse, that stupid Federico comes up and brutally presses himself on her. He gets her in a hallway and demands that she accept what her father has arranged between them and then smashes her against the wall with a brutal kiss and embrace. Regina spits out that he's even worse than she thought!

Right about then the good doctor Pablo enters and beats back Federico, who is not glad about it at all. But Federico leaves, warning her he's going to tell her father about the doctor; Regina declares he
should -- and she'll reveal to everybody his scandalous intentions.
Federico's not done with her, and the doctor says anytime he thinks not, just look him up! Everybody can tell Regina was not having a good time, including the doctor. Regina just wants to be along and flees the building.

In a short scene at the club, Philippe and Marlene have a very sweet, happy exchange. He's very grateful to her for rescuing him; if not for her he'd be dead, he says. This makes Marlene very happy.

On the finca grounds outside, Regina watches a folk dance, where two men symbolically fight with swords over a woman, and Regina has a dark vision of Juan and Renato doing so in their places. Suddenly, Aimee
comes up and spends a few minutes taunting her sister over Renato.
Aimee likes the dance, too and notices cynically they have a lot of things in common after all. How Regina loves Renato -- and Renato loves Aimee.

Regina chides her for leaving Renato alone inside, and it comes out that one of Regina's notable interests in Renato is his money. She's just telling her that, because Regina won't betray her; but Regina says she would if Aimee doesn't keep her promises. Regina points at the dancers and the story of the tarima: that two men fight to the death, but the woman could also get killed by one of the men, too -- over betrayal.

At the jail, the unfortunate prisoner enters Juan's cell at the sheriff's bidding and gets stabbed for his trouble. Juan waits for the sheriff to enter and detains him with a knife at his throat so that the guards will leave; they drag the dead prisoner off. Juan bites the sheriff's ear or cheek for good measure. Juan demands to know if he's going to commit yet another injustice in the name of Rodrigo Montes de Oca.

In the garden, Renato comes looking for his wife; the reception's winding down, and they need to bid their guests goodbye -- and prepare for the best night of their lives, he says. Aimee knows Regina is watching some distance away and decides the wedding night will start right there. She removes his coat and shirt and draws him down onto the ground. He's almost caught up, but breaks it off after a few hot kisses, saying he didn't envision their wedding night that way.

Someone else is watching with some bitterness, too -- Leonarda has sent Rosenda to find the couple, since they have been missed. She watches a moment and then steps in to explain; Renato redresses himself, and they return. Rosenda notices Regina crying, hidden some distance away and moves to speak to her.

Rosenda levels with her, and Regina seems to appreciate it. Rosenda says she can relax; she saw everything. It's ok; but they should return to the party, and Regina thanks her for her concern. Rosenda reminds her she is always there for Regina to count on her help.

Rosenda and Arcadio get their heads together, and she reveals her discovery that Aimee is not exactly hopelessly in love with Renato -- and the funny thing was that Regina was spying on them. It's odd, but I thought Arcadio and Rosenda concluded that the crazy man must have been coming for the monca -- i.e., Regina. I don't get how they concluded this.

After the party in the front hall of the finca, Rodrigo, Renato and Noel have a scene where Rodrigo becomes furious with Renato that he should concern himself over Juan. Renato explains he knows why Juan attacked him, that he rescued him. When Rodrigo begins to throw his weight around, demanding Renato having nothing to do with Juan, amazingly enough, Noel steps in and prevents Rodrigo from ruining Renato's wedding night. Rodrigo promises they will take this up later.

After Renato departs, Noel informs Rodrigo that from this point on, he
will cease to try to make Renato do things that are against his will.
Their childrens' lives are their own and he is not to interfere.
Meanwhile at the jail, Juan tortures himself with thoughts of Aimee's wedding night. And sure enough, up in their apartments at the finca, Renato has prepared a dreamy wedding chamber, replete with clouds of passion-red rose petals and an archipelago of candle lights.

Renato is a happy man, and Aimee makes a good show of being a happy woman and being pleased by all the personal touches Renato prepared for her. There is food and wine and pretty people clothed only in bed linens across their tropic zones. It really needs a picture.

Thank you, Connie! I haven't been able to watch the show yet myself. I'm hoping to get that done this morning.
 

Happy Thursday everyone. I tagged this earlier but can't find it now. If someone knows how to fix it let me know.

My favotite scene last night was when Fed got his clock cleaned by the good Doc. It would have been better if Regina had done it, oh well...
 

You're welcome Jeri. It might be just the two of us on here today!

I just saw an interview with the good doctor (Alejandro Ávila) in which he was asked about his future plans, and he said that he wants to finish the recordings of his ranchero album. It'll come out in May.
I said wow, I didn't know that he's one of those singer-actors, although I guess this isn't rare in Mexico. Irán Castillo, Lucero, Angélica Rivera (and so on) are also singers.

(Sorry for the triple post, the first one was screwed up by blogspot, the second one was my mistake. :-))
 

I just watched the show, and I am going to make a soundtrack and listen to it to make a summary. Check back later.
 

Good morning Jeri, Connie and Aribeth.

Connie, I'll echo the best scene being the good doctor's very effective right hook. So glad to see Fed get what I fervently hope is only the beginning of the comeuppance he so richly deserves. Thanks for giving us an update Aribeth - you always provide such interesting information.

The high light being noted, the low light was Aimee. What a beyotch. I'm sure Jeri will cover this in her summary (which aI'm looking forward to) so I will comment more then.

Diana
 

Yes, she was a piece of work wasn't she? What a skank.
 

On last night's episode of "Everybody Hates Reggie:"

Aimee makes Reggie publically toast to her and Renato's happiness. Even Renato felt uncomfortable;

Federico decides to force himself on Reggie whether she likes it or not;

Reggie fantasizes about a shirtless Renato swordfighting Juan but is rudely interrupted by Aimee gloating about marrying Renato;

Aimee decides to show Reggie what she can't have by putting on a porn show in the bushes with Renato;

Rosenda runs/tells Orca that Reggie is the one messing around with Juan;

On a positive note, Juan thoughtbubbled about Regina in his jail cell.

Today's recap of "Everybody Hates Reggie" was brought to you by the upcoming Tyler Perry movie called "Why Did I Get Married to You?" starring Renato and Noel.
 

Anon:
This's absolutely fabulous! :-DD I love your Everybody Hates Reggie summaries.

"the upcoming Tyler Perry movie called "Why Did I Get Married to You?" starring Renato and Noel"

P.r.i.c.e.l.e.s.s.

And at least doctorcito likes Reggie. He's a real caballero. *Aribeth's in love :)*

Aimee's public porn show was sooo over the top. And after this little spontaneous act Renato still believes that he's married to a blushing virgin? Gosh, this man is far less experienced than the 40 year old virgin.
 

Not even a grass stain on her dress either.
 

Hi, Diana. :) You're welcome, it's good to know that you don't mind my little side notes.

Btw, I have two photos of the Doc.
(I'm a big picture collector, and there are at least one thousand official CS photos on my hard drive. Nowadays I try to arrange and catalogue them... Downloading them was the easier part.)
 

Summary in several posts -- Connie if you want to post this as one post under the recaps, it's detailed enough for one.

--------

Dear Jeri, you're awesome. Thank you very much. :-)

"This guy isn't a patch on Juan. He should be wearing the red shirt."

LOL, Star Trek references are always welcome.
 

Anon: "Everybody Hates Reggie" was brought to you by the upcoming Tyler Perry movie called "Why Did I Get Married to You?" starring Renato and Noel."

Hysterical!

Now on to Jeri's recap...

Diana
 

Aribeth, oh, you caught that, did you? You're pretty amazing yourself -- I don't know how you keep up with American culture so well. It can't be easy.
 

Jeri: An excellent recap. The detail and comments were great. Along with Aribeth I enjoyed "This guy isn't a patch on Juan". Also thought "Leonarda is furious with Noel and his fascination with justice, which always just gets in the way" and "people clothed only in bed linens across their tropic zones" were fabulous.

Juan's "band of brothers" may appear rag tag but have great heart, soul and courage.

I thought Renato looked very handsome and was extremely appealing as the wedding night commenced. Muy guapo...

The friendship and camraderie between Philippe and Marlene always makes me smile. I thought Noel's protectiveness toward Regina (knowing she was suffering) was very sweet.

Aimess's behavior toward her sister was contemptible. I suspect the tables will soon turn and Aimee will be seething with jealousy as Regina's admirers begin to surface.

Diana
 

Jeri: What an amzaing recap. In addition to what Aribeth noted, I thought "Leonarda is furious with Noel and his fascination with justice, which always just gets in the way" and "pretty people clothed only in bed linens across their tropic zones" were fabulous.

I enjoy the friendship and camraderie of Philippe and Marlene. Noel's tender protectiveness toward Regina (whom he knew was suffering) was touching.

Juan's "boyz" may seem to be rag tag in appearance but their hearts and courage match that of the fiercest batallion.

Renato was muy guapo last night. The wedding scene was hot. I don't know how Aimee could be immune to him - I sure couldn't...

Aimee's lording it over Regina was painful to watch. The splendor in the grass scene was revolting. I suspect it won't be too long untill the tables are turned. Aimme will most likely not choose to emulate Regina's silent suffering but will seethe outwardly and often.

Diana
 

Sorry for the double posting. Thought I lost my first comment so redid what I could from memory. That's been happening a lot lately.

Diana
 

Aimess's behavior toward her sister was contemptible. I suspect the tables will soon turn and Aimee will be seething with jealousy as Regina's admirers begin to surface.

Right. Already Regina has Federico and Dr. Pablo, and Juan just thought about Regina in the jail cell.

And Juan has come to realize that Regina is strong and has admirable qualities. He just thinks of Aimless with lust.
 

I thought I tagged this this morning but it's not showing up. What am I doing wrong. Thanks again Jeri for the great recap.
 

Jeri that was a wonderful recap! Aimee is so beautiful it's sometimes hard to remember what a snake she is. I was sooo hoping that during her passionate "show" with Renato she would call out Juan's name.

Who did Noel and Rodrigo "put away" years ago? Noel wasn't involved in Dr. Miranda Sr.'s death so it couldn't be him. Leonarda was involved as well it seems or why mention it in front of her? Are they referring to Juan DD Sr??
 

xlntperuvian, oh, that would have been so funny to hear Aimee call Juan's name. Well, it's not over yet.

Yeah, they were talking about Juan's dad. So many parallels in this episode between Juan and his dad. Juan said something about it to the sheriff, as well.
 

I haven't been watching this much, only occasionally, so have a couple questions/obsevations.

1) who is Rosenda, and is she on the "good" side of the ledger, or a phony kissing up to Reggie?

2) was Noel referring to Juan Sr. when lamenting having put a man away in the past? Don't remeber him being involved in it.

3) I knew from the start that doofus Juan would eventually find his way to the monja aspirante, Regina. Glad to see that I haven't lost complete touch with the predictability of the TN formula.

dorado dave

4) what happened with the top cop? The last I saw of him, Juan had a knife to his throat, they cut to another scene, at the end Juan is by himself in the cell- did I miss something, or was that a ?que?
 

Jeri: Thanks. :-) But actually, it's easy. The American movies, series and pop culture are well know all around the world, and in the age of internet, imdb, urban dictionary, thousands of blogs and fansites it's not a big deal to be up-to-date.

Anon:
Rosenda is a maid who works to the Montes de Loca family since she was a child. She's a foxy, calculating girl, but she's not that bad, rather a grey character.

"Glad to see that I haven't lost complete touch with the predictability of the TN formula."

Predictability? They're supposed to be the protagonists (even if every single side story is more important in this damned script than the romance of el Diablo y la Santa), of course the endgame is that they'll hook up with each other. :-)
 

Jeri, thanks for pinch-hitting with such a thorough recap, turned around so quickly. Many fine points, but I'm still chuckling over the "archipelago of candle lights".

Dorado Dave, nice to see you checking in. Aribeth summed up Rosenda nicely, but let me add that she's also the long-ago-abandoned daughter of Madam Marlene She has a big axe to grind with her mom and she has insinuated herself into Leonarda's graces partly by blackmail. She is a sponge for "useful" information about just about everybody who has something to hide and we are just waiting for her to start parlaying all that inside dope to her advantage. That's why you saw her sucking up to Reg.
 

OT
Here's the presentation of Soy tu duena, the new telenovela of Nicandro "Destilando amor/MEPS" Díaz:
part 1
part 2
The show starts on Monday.
 

Thanks Jeri and Connie for covering the fort while Cheryl is away. YIKES !!! Talk about blatant , not latent, sibling rivalry ~ !!! Did Meow plan to do Rennie right there in the bushes ? So much for the simpering virgin idea. I especially despised the way Meow turned her head and grinned at Reggie every once in awhile. That : I've got something that you want...nah-nah-nah-nah-nah look. My sister is no angel , but Meow is out of control nasty to her sis. The noche de boda boudoir with the rose petal heart on the bed and Ren's manlinesshood framed against the lace canopy...nice. I , too, enjoyed Doc's punch to Fed's face. I just wish that his ponytail had come undone.
 

Aribeth~~~WOW~ Thanks so much for those links. It looks like it's going to be a great novela..so many familiar faces~~TBLMOE, Lucero, Ana Martin, the guy who played Don Loco on Duelo de Pasiones, the Reyes primo from FELS, Matilde's tia from Amor Real, the old dude from Sortlegio. Isn't the hacienda the same one that was used as Manuel's hacienda in Amor Real ? Beautiful scenery and horses and lots of shirtless scenes for FC. That sudden close up of his abs made me drop my apple.
 

Mad Bess: Those abs, that face...I about choked on my yogurt smoothie! ;)

(My verification word is SWAING?? Coincidence?? I think not. )
 

I was thinking about the scene with Arcadio, and when he concluded that the crazy man must have been coming after the monca, maybe he meant Aimee -- referring to the night she sallied forth to the beach in Regina's habit?

Dorado Dave, it's hard for me to believe Noel went along with incarcerating Juan's dad, too; but I can't remember how that went now. He must have somehow, in light of last night's conversations.

But if so, that has made him more and more determined to live up to the promise he made to take care of Juan. And as soon as he is apprised of who Juan is, I feel confident he will be a staunch ally.

In fact, I am really looking forward to that.
 

thanks for the clarifications on my questions of earlier, Aribeth and Lady Xoc, and Jeri for the recap, too. One more comment- that Federico is really something- 18th century mullet, especially. He really needs to be dealt with.
 

thanks for the recapp....i have been watching 2-3 times aweek to keep cuaght up but it grows on you.....anyway i think this novela is getting better all the time..... i cannot put into words to u Aribeth the gracias for the clips of the new Colunga/Lucero and all....novela coming soon....someone said they almost dropped there apple when they saw him bare chested...... i was yelling and yipeeing it up in my bedroom....so loud that the whole family came in to see what all the ruckus was about.......i can hardly wait for "Soy Tu Duena"
BNinCA
 

Huzzah! Thanks for stepping in, Jeri - I knew waiting to watch would pay off!

Oh my god! Could Aimee be any more of a cow? She's been cruel before, but trying to get Renato to consummate the marriage right there in front of Regina - that's just beyond the pale.

It occurs to me that Regina and Rosenda could be a powerful force if they decided to swing into revenge mode together. I know Rosenda's not lily-white or anything, but I don't think of her as evil the way some of the other potential antagonists are - she's just looking out for herself the way her mum taught her to.

Federico, however - up until this point, I've actually been of the mind that it wouldn't be horrible if he were to be redeemed - more for Fifi's sake than anything else. Sure, he's slime, but so far, he'd only been a rather geneic sort of slime - he hadn't been running around poisoning the tea or anything. Maybe he could have learned the error of his ways, hooked up with the Fifster, lead a nice life of carnal pleasure... I can't imagine he'd be too concerned with what anyone thought of him marrying a ho, and if he did, they could always move out of town. After that little show, though, I'm half-hoping the good Doctorcito will push him off a cliff! Can't we find a nice girl for dear Pablo, if he's not meant for Regina? Maybe he could have Fifi!
 

Thanks for the mulitple recaps, gang! I must admit, I'm having a hard time staying awake for CS. Too much repetition & tears, I guess.

so, "Regina points at the dancers and the story of the tarima: that two men fight to the death, but the woman could also get killed by one of the men, too -- over betrayal"--a red herring, perhaps? I was wondering if Aimee might die in childbirth but this could be a fitting end to our dear little high class 'ho. (no spoiler, just guessing)

Renato looked awesome! I've been anxiously awaiting the removal of a few extraneous layers of clothes (tie, jacket, vest, shirt...growl) & man, it was worth it. I was in ogle heaven! Now if Gabe would just take off a few layers...

Maggarita
TGIF
:-D
 

Oops, that should have read "the story on the stage..."
 

Thanks, Jeri! I've been a bit behind, but catching up. Hate when real life interferes with novelas!

You did a fabulous job. lol at : "More like the love of a good hunk.)" Your recap was truly very descriptive and great! :)
 

OT. Please forgive the intrusion.

OT. Any Jaime Camil fans here? He's doing a live chat tomorrow (Sat), midday. Check his Twitter page (clickable link) for details. You do NOT need a Twitter account, but it's easier if you have one. He'll announce the time later today, and post the chat URL on his Twitter page 5 minutes before the chat starts.

He does this about once a month. Do you want me to post an announcement when he does another? Or would you rather I don't? Give it to me straight, Doctor. I can take it!
