El Clon, Mon., July 26- Summary for Discussion
Labels: clon
Hmmm...maybe I'm just in a rotten mood, but I found myself with very little patience not just for Jade but for Nati as well. When she finally bothers to concoct an explanation of why she wasn't present at one of the most important moments in Alej's life, it's insultingly lame. Gee, Alej, I had to study for an exam and then I got hungry and there was nothing in the fridge and....
I was really bummed later tonight when I went to watch ¿Dónde Está Elisa? only to find that it had been cut from an hour to 15 minutes. Or, at least, by 10:15 Telemundo had switched to some new TN they were promoting. I think I'd have been happier if they had cut back on El Clon tonight and given us a full episode of ¿DEE? At least exciting things are happening there. Oh well.... At least your summarcap was up to its usual very high standards. Many thanks!
It was also good to see Osvaldo again. You may be right that we missed something about him giving some of Dora's money to Karla. That makes him less sympathetic, but not unforgivable. He's just a bit of a blockhead sometimes.
By the way, you mentioned Marisa's "VNP" (I had to google that one), and it seems to be kind of common on this novela, and some others I've seen. Is that considered slightly risque or not? I think on an English-speaking network it would be. I also get the impression that in Central and South America it's nothing special.
Luke, I agree with you, I like the possibilities that Zein's presence introduces. (Not only that, it is a delight to have a beautiful man to look at whose habitual expression is neither a scowl nor a simper!)
Even so, I'm more than ready to have some of the pitbulls who've been nipping at the heels of this novela put down. It's time for Miss K to pay! Maybe we need to bring in Hercule Poirot from PBS so he can use his little grey cells to demonstrate Osvaldo's innocence and get K put in jail for extorsion; he could also expose her plot with Consuelo and Hilda so these lovelies could share a cell with her.
And is Marisa going to escape prosecution for her false accusations against Alejandro, for actually planting evidence? Not if the little Belgian detective is on the case!
And Malicia... well, unfortunately, taking advantage of Escobar's over-inflated ego isn't a crime, but blackmailing Luisa surely is. Let's throw her in the cell, too!
And then we can sit back and enjoy and be shocked by and horrified at what happens to the characters we are here to see!
I goodled VNP and still don't understand! Guess I'm just to old for subtleness (is that a word?)
I'm still enjoying this TN and seldom find it dull. Lois
Did Nati really wreck her car or was just saying that to Alej?
The best part of this episode was Zein's smile. It was funny that Jade couldn't keep track of the drugged drink. Was that Allah's work? It would be fine with me if Jade ended up with Zein and Said was stuck with Raina and her wicked sister forever and ever.

I was kinda surprised by Marisa's 'vnp.' i think it's kinda sexy... you see that a lot in miami.
I could just drown in Zein's eyes... he is muy caliente!!
Maybe the VNP is because the men on set usually wear more clothes and they keep the air conditioning at meat locker temperature for male comfort.
I also saw Jade pick the wrong drink. I didn't see that coming. But, of course, they have to be thwarted once more. She still doesn't know Lucas has returned to the US, but surely the $%it will hit the fan when she finds out.
The whole Ozzie/Dora/Karla thing is very confusing, probably because of cut scenes. Dora says K told her everything, but what did she tell her? Surely not that she was blackmailing him. If Dora knew that she might be sympathetic to his desire to stay out of jail. And why didn't he tell her that instead of just repeating that he loved her? OK, tighten my beanie.
For those of you who didn't see the novela, this may not mean much, but I'd like to see Marisa, Malicia, Karla and Hilda turned over to Doña Bárbara. She'd sort them out in a NY minute. If they wouldn't sort, she'd take them to her piranha pool.
Yes, indeedy, Zein has amazing eyes. They're so stunning in such a dark-haired man. He's the real deal, totally sexy.
OK, time for Nati to get her rear end into a program. I was astounded she tried that lame lie on Alej. I sincerely hope he didn't buy it. In any case, Mama Rosa is likely to run into him soon and spill the beans.
And, of course, to Said it won't matter whether Jade is second or 32nd, he'll still have a big Jones for her.
Yes, I wonder what Karla did tell Dora? That Osvi had had had an affair with her and was supporting her?
All I can say is that I'm embarrassed when I have VNP and I wear a bra, unlike Marisa. I hadn't noticed it before on her.
It will be interesting to see what arrangement Jade and Zein make. If he is really in love with her, he is going to have a problem with her relationship with Lucas.
I too am ready for the wheel to start turning and the bad guys start to get their just desserts.
Who has ever looked at Marisa like that? Maybe Diego used to?
Juanita, I'm glad you wrote and commented on DEE. I didn't know what was going on. I thought that it went on at 9:00 instead of 10:00. Thanks for clearing that up for me, but it was a gyp. Cecclia is really losing it...

There's a DEE forum of sorts on the telenovela-world site. That's where I learned that they were cutting DEE back to half an hour, but apparently they cut it back even more last night and also started before 10. People on the DEE forum were understandably NOT pleased.
Juanita and Ann i was so pissed after El Fantasma ended before 10:00 came there was DEE and it was like Juanita said only fifteen minutes i was like WTF is going on?
This tells me this new novela may not be so good and they need a strong lead in to carry and keep the DEE audience to stay watching Telemundo when DEE ends. But come on fifteen minutes? That's pure butchery of a great novela big BOOOOOOOOOOOO to Telemundo. As soon as that new novela came on i went right back to STUD.
Thank you.
I liked the comment about the spoon.
