Llena de Amor #112 (Mex. 117) Thu 1/20/11 Top model fight club
You know how in these shows people hide their feelings and never show what they feel? Well tonight sure was the exception. Almost everyone said or showed their true feelings, maybe not at the beginning, but by the end things started sorting themselves out. Will it last? I wonder…
Last night we left with Her Highness Fedra entering the boardroom and Vicky making mysterious implications about seeing her the previous night.
Meanwhile a few doors down El Lirio, a slightly more clumsy version who smacks himself in the huevos with the safe door (nice touch, that!) is burgling The Case of Money that’s in Lowrenzo’s office.
Forget what I said about implications. Vicky starts the meeting off by telling Don Emiliano that she ran into Fedra in a bordello last night! Caras impactadas all around the table. Fedra’s flimsy excuse is that she was looking for Gretel. Oh, and Vicky was just there with a couple of pals out of curiosity to see the worst of the city, but the star dancer, overaged, vulgar and flabby (fláccida), wasn’t much to her liking. Lowman wants to know the address.
Licenciado Pacheco is also at the table. He announces to that all that Mari just inherited Don Max’s entire estate. Fedra steams but Eman backs MV up, yep he gave it all to Mari.
Vicky snottily tells them with Felipe’s inheritance given to her by Emiliano, and Max’s estate, Mari is now the major shareholder of the agency.
Over at the happy, colorful house Netty is crying that Mari is back in town and hasn’t even called. Gladiola is mostly just curious about Mari’s vengeance and is pretty happy that the tortillas have turned in her favor. Netty frets about Mari hating Emanuel. She knows that they were separated by a diabolical plot. Her intuition tells her that Eman is innocent.
Not surprisingly Fedra is busy self-destructing in the board room while Eman tells Vicky to keep her hands off Mari’s money. This pleasant scene is interrupted by Mauricio entering and trying to look all professional with a portfolio. Vicky tells him to beat it, shareholders only. We get a second round of caras impactadas when he announces that Low sold him ten percent of the company and he throws his portfolio of contracts on the table.
Down at the police station Axel and Gretelman are fervently discussing Axman’s love for Delicia and standing about one inch from each other. Their inevitable sibling clinch is spied by Oliver who doesn’t even try to hide his jealousy and indignance. He throws Axel around a bit and there is some pretense at chest thumping until Gman pulls Oli off of Axel, clenches his feminine fist and tells Oli to lay off or he’ll be swallowing teeth. “And you defend him?!” cries our incredulous arm of the law.
Nearby, El Comisario and Brando review Gman’s excellent photos of El Lirio and comment the mysterious thief hasn’t been seen in a few days. Ilitia, looking for a 6-pack, er…I mean Brandon, peeks in and can’t hide the fact that she swoons for the suave stealer.
Her papi’s not faring too well in the boardroom. It looks like Mami Muñeca plans to revoke his power of attorney as punishment for his perfidy. She stomps out as Pacheco does a two-second scan of the docs and announces all is in order, Fonseca is a shareholder. Eman’s in a snit, first bitchy Vicky thinks she’s in charge and now a criminal is on the board!
Emiliano calmly announces if Mari trusts Vicky then they should too. Vicky can’t hide the fact that she’s thrilled she’s sticking it to Fedra and Eman and gleefully announces that nobody will get in the way of her taking the reins of the company.
This Faux Lirio isn’t nearly as quick as the original. He is STILL in the office stealing the money and Muñeca is outside the door wanting to get that case. Screw Lowrenzo and his money, she’s taking it back. She bursts in the office and sees she’s too late, the safe is empty. She turns and sees FauxLirio behind her and scoffs at him. “I’m El Lirio de Plata,” he announces. She calls bull and snickers “no you aren’t”. “Oh yes I am!” “Oh no you aren’t!” FauxLirio cocks his gun, points it at her head and settles the matter.
Brandon and El Comis find out Ililitia saw El Lirio at her house and they think Muñeca is just a bit too familiar with this mysterious thief.
Let’s go back to the bored room. Emiliano advises his disgruntled wife and irked son that this was inevitable and they have to trust Mari’s decisions. Blah blah, shriek shriek, whine whine, “my vote counts”, squeaks Mauricio as if they care. The door bangs open and in stumbles Muñeca followed by FauxLirio.
Looks like it’s time for Ilitia’s shooting lessons out on the range. Brandon demonstrates the proper technique for holding a gun, and he’s got quite a pair of them himself. When it’s her turn Ilitia frets and flinches until Brandon tells her to imagine it’s that disgrace Fonseca. She pumps seven rounds into the dummy’s heart. The girl’s a natural!
I’m not a fan of hostage situations but if that’s what it takes to mix things up in the bored room I’m all for it. FauxLirio croaks a word or two and Vicky pipes up he’s an imposter. FauxLirio actually points his gun at the silver pin on his own chest, “I’m El Lirio de Plata!” OK sure fine, they all nod. Eman’s in a snit because he knows this guy’s a fake, Pacheco hides behind Emiliano, Lowrenzo busily fiddles with something around his neck and the others throw their valuables onto the table while FauxLirio starts scooping up the goods. Gosh that heavy gun must weigh a lot because he sets it on the table to free up his hands for scooping. Eman calmly pick up the gun, uses it to push a couple of bracelets over to FauxLirio and then tells Fauxman it’s time to find out who he really is. Dang he looks hot in this scene.
Mauricio begs Eman not to shoot FL so I think we can safely assume the imposter is Dandy.
Brandon’s self defense class continues and now it’s time for boxing lessons so Ilitia can defend herself from a body to body attack. Body to body? She bats her eyes at him and starts her jumping jacks.
Stupid Fedra runs into FauxLirio giving him the opportunity to steal the gun back and take Vicky hostage. Eman postures, FauxLirio threatens to kill Vicky, Fedra urges him to do it, and finally Eman announces that FauxLirio will take him too.
The boxing lesson is just about the sexiest sparring I’ve ever seen. Ilitia left hooks Brandon in his tight little behind, sticks her cute little tongue out at him, and finally lands a hard punch on his kisser when Brandon tells her to imagine he’s Fonseca.
FauxLirio makes an anemic threat about calling the police and Lowman thought bubbles that he sent them a message from his cell and they’ll be there any minute. That must have been what he was doing with his neck earlier. Whatever. FauxLirio commands them to remove their clothes. Que??
Lesson #3 at Brandon’s academy is hand to hand combat which eventually turns into chest to chest then knee to nut contact. Oops! Did I say Ilitia is a quick study?
The Polis (and Gman with camera) arrive at the board room to find those left behind in their skivvies and tied together in a circle.
My, my let’s see what our friends wear underneath their clothing… Lowrenzo and Emiliano are doing the frumpy businessman thing in boxers and t-shirts, Muñeca is tastefully attired in a simple white slip, Fonseca actually looks mighty fine in his Calvin Klein boxer briefs, and Fedra sports a look we’ve seen before, the gartered dominatrix. I like it, bondage in bondage.
Ilitia tries to comfort Brandon, stopping short of petting his package. Things are heating up quickly for our duo in denial. Brandon leans in for a kiss…doh! Interrupted by the radio. Emergency situation at the Agency. El Lirio de Plata has taken Ilitia’s ‘baby’ hostage. They arrive to find the agency in pandemonium and Brandon promises Ilitia that he’ll find them safe and sound.
Netty is on a tear to find Mari. She calls the long-suffering Almudena in Spain who sticks to her story, not a word to anyone. But she does let slip that the RydTs are very dangerous, Fedra tried to poison Mari. QUE??? Almudena tells Netty to get the rest of the story from Victoria, her lips are sealed.
Eman’s drives while FauxLirio holds a gun to his head. He lisps to Vicky that she’s his little gift. “Ewwww, don’t be gross,” she sneers. Eman’s cogs and sprockets start turning. “You all right Victoria?” he asks. “Muy all right!” FauxLirio leers. Vicky sneers again.
And here comes the cavalry, except there are no horses and its Brandon and Ilitia in his jeep. I sure hope she paid attention in class earlier. Ilitia gets jealous that Brandon is worried for Vicky, but then they spot them up ahead.
FauxLirio has Eman stop the car so they can get out, not sure why, and Brandon pulls up behind them. The two men face each other and it’s a Mexican Standoff.
Ilitia, hiding behind the jeep, keeps waving at Eman, “hi baby!”. FauxLirio, confused as to exactly where to point the gun, loses focus and Eman pulls Vicky out of the line of fire. Ilitia runs to her and they hug. Huh?
They have the same reaction and push each other away. Eww, I forgot I hate you.
Vicky starts gasping and Eman instructs Ilitia to help her out, so Ilitia decides to slap Vicky across the face several times and yell “breathe, breathe, breathe!” Eman and Brandon shake their heads in disbelief.
Now we’ve got a rather long scene where Muneca swears to El Comisario that this guy was NOT El Lirio de Plata. The real ELdP is noble, a gentleman, he takes from the rich and gives to the poor. He doesn’t keep the money. She asks El Comis what would he do if he someone gave him a lot of money so that orphans could eat? He wavers momentarily before declaring she knows just a little too much about El Lirio and she’s under arrest.
This will likely be good news to Lowrenzo who has his hands full at the moment dealing with his sadistic and insatiable girlfriend Fedra. She’s not sympathetic that his money is gone or that his neck hurts and she’s still on the subject that he won’t kill Vicky to please her. He throws back what has she done for him? She wouldn’t loan money to him, remember? And he’s still mad about her lackey Bernardo beating him up. Fedra gets back to the case in point. Pretty soon Vicky will get rid of all of them and it would be very convenient if she were dead.
Ilitia runs behind Brandon for protection and Vicky gasps to Eman to help her. I guess she can’t reach into her own purse. Eman pushes FL aside and runs to Vicky. FL runs to Ilitia and grabs her from behind. Brandon coaches her, remember the kick! A bite on the arm and a kick in the nuts sends Ilitia into Brandon’s arms and FauxLirio driving away in a car that mysteriously showed up out of nowhere. But no matter about that now, the right people are finally hugging! Brandon is with Ilitia and Eman is with MariVicky.
Mañana: Netty confronts Fedra and tells Eman that his mom poisoned Mari.
Boo hoo, I couldn't get my screen shots to upload! I'll try again tomorrow.

Sylvia, what a fun episode you had to recap, and you gave it your usual flair in retelling. I was laughing, and coughing (remnants still of this bug), through the whole show.
Mano/Oliver and now Axel-just wonderful! But poor Oliver, someone put him into the loop before the boy goes crazy!
"Fedra sports a look we’ve seen before, the gartered dominatrix" - did you notice when the cavalry first game in, and Mano took some pics, she actually threw in a few poses. Hysterical!
I echo that Eman came off mighty fine in the whole epsiode,but especially the hostage scenes.The whole time he was like - "dude, I am so on to you". But everyone was fun to watch.
Speaking of fun, Ilitia's self defense classes were great! There is such chemistry between her and Brandon, and when she's laughing and having fun as a character, Altair is a joy to watch.
So, love that ending, hug between the two femme fatales so funny. I agree, it was definitely beanie time though: why M/V didn't have her inhaler in her purse, and lo and behold, she did, but hey a girl needs a galan to help administer I guess. And that car for fakey ILD, was that a planned meeting place??
But who cares - it was all good fun and we had the right people fires up the troops. Cool
Stay warm those in this arctic blasts!

Good morning, thanks for checking in. Daisy, sorry to hear you are still feeling a bit punk. I'm still in the disgusting hacking stage, blech.
I agree, wasn't it funny how Fedra just couldn't help but pose for the camera? She's great.
I'm thinking that since Mauricio probably put Dandy up to the robbery maybe it was him or one of his lackeys who showed up to rescue him. He was clearly outnumbered.
Well, I tried to upload the screen shots again this morning but no luck. I'll try after work today.
Carlos, my closed caps weren't much better last night. It must be regional.

Sylvia, I'm so disappointed that you didn't have the same captions that we had here. Ours were near-perfect. My satellite Spanish package (which is great by the way) gets me the West coast Univision showings and I tuned in and was surprised to see that the captions were not nearly as good as those we had earlier in the evening. Wouldn't you think that if money is one of the problems, Univision would do one good set for everyone?
Nevertheless, this was a fun, loosey-goosey episode and your recap is awesome. The Ilitia Brandon scenes were so sweet and I agree, Eman was very good without saying much, letting facial expressions, shrugs, and body-language do his talking.

Oh Sylvia...I love your turn of phrase. "...the tortillas have finally turned in her favor."...."the bored room" and "bondage in bondage". Too cute. As Daisynjay says, you write with flair.
So sorry you couldn't upload your pics. But at least you didn't lose any of your recap.
Just saw bit and pieces of this last night as we were shoveling snow and trying to get our son's car unwedged, but did get to enjoy Ilitia's sexy combat training. Those two are adorable together. Such a switch from the vicious abuser the actor played in Mi Pecado. I'm loving the incipient romances...Ilitia/Brandon; Manolo/Oliver and even a wee bit Victoria/Emanuel.
Also shoveled this morning but for the moment the sun is shining and no snow at all. In the early morning, there was a gorgeous full moon in the milky sky. Made being out there in the frigid cold well worth it.

PS Very cute and clever title.
@Audrey...thanks for the link to Telemundo that you left last night.
@Pirate Babe...sorry, for some reason I missed your comment yesterday and never responded. But we both want the same things, that's for sure. And since I think you're up in Cleveland with Daisynjay, hope you were able to shovel out yesterday and last night.

I'm so bummed I couldn't upload my shots because they were great of course! Gah!
Wasn't the full moon last night great? I didn't even mind waking up at 3:00 a.m. due to the bright light coming through my window because it was just gorgeous. Almost made me think I was in the DF where the moon seens to be perpetually full.

Sylvia, your recap was so much fun to read. thanks so much.
I am now referring to this show as my breath of fresh air before I enter the toxic atmosphere of Eva. It has been so much fun to watch, even though I haven't watched from the beginning. All you recappers are doing such a great job of transferring all the fun to this site.

Driving to work through a snowstorm this morning was easy. Trying to cut down on my list of favorite lines from this amazing recap was darn near impossible.
Sylvia: I think this was one of my favorite episodes to date and you did it masterful justice. In addition to what daisy and Judy already noted, loved: "inevitable sibling clinch", "looking for a 6-pack, er…I mean Brandon", "punishment for his perfidy" amd "mix things up in the bored room".
Oliver's overt jealousy of Axel was adorable. I believe Axel was enjoying it as much as we were! I found myself smiling through just about every scene last night. I'm with Judy in enjoying the "incipient romances".
I thought the actors brave to agree to pare down to their undergarments. Unfortunately, the image of Mau in those striped bikinis is seared indelibly on my brain.
There's just not enough screen time for all of the appealing couples - Gretel and Oliver, Mano and Oliver, Axel and Delicia and Ilitia and Brandon. I keep hoping to add Vicki and Eman to the list but that will have to wait until Mari's endearing personality (and true identity) return.

Did you all notice how Gretel could barely contain her laughter when Oliver launched into his jealous speech! Talk about grinning from ear-to-ear!
And she told him hold on to his testostorones - ROTFLOL!

What a fun episode...and the recap brought it all back with great flair. Thanks, Sylvia.
I may have nearly swooned when Emanuel oh-so-calmly picked up the gun and looked at FauxLirio like, "ha." That was a mighty good look on him.
Why does our newly tough, independent, take-no-prisoners Marianela still fall into her helpless damsel in distress bit whenever she has an asthma attack? I know she's our protagonista so she's supposed to survive to the end, but honestly, if she can't manage to pull out her own inhaler when she starts gasping, maybe it's time for Darwinism to kick in.
Yesterday afternoon I was thinking, "wasn't Brandon going to give Ilitia self-defense lessons? I want to see that." Wish granted. They had so much fun. How long until Ilitia accepts that she's so much happier with him and gives up on "Baby"?
Did FauxLirio get away with the money, or did he leave it behind? I missed that detail.

Did you guys notice the playground equipment at the site of Ilitia's shooting lesson? School must not have let out yet.
I'm having fun watching poor Oliver wrestle with his emotions, but I thought that Brandon insisted the last time I recapped (2 weeks ago) that Manolo come clean with him about the masquerade. As Kristal might say tica tak, tica tak.
After all the excitement of the past week or so, I wonder if we're going to see things slow down tonight?

Sylvia- I missed the show last night (life calls), but made sure I watched it this morning before work to make sure I could comment on your recap. I am sure glad I watched. What a hoot! And your recap was wonderful for reliving it. I could not stop laughing when Ilitia slapped MariVicky around demanding that she BREATHE! LOL!
My other favorite parts have already been mentioned too- the "bored" room Lirio/tied up antics, Brandon's self defense course (sign me up!), and of course Oli/GMan/Axel. The looks on all three of their faces was priceless. Poor Oliver is being tortured and GMan and Axel are enjoying every minute of it.
The ridiculousness of Mari's inhaler situation is almost too much. But if the result is Ilitia slapping her around, then I say let the ridiculousness continue.

Sylvia – I laughed out loud during this episode, and then I laughed out loud reading your recap. It was outstanding and had so many great lines. Wonderful!
Carlos – I had no idea everyone didn’t have the same captions. Strange. Yes, the ones here on the west coast were useless during the latter part of the show. It looked like somebody was just jiggling their fingers on the keyboard, because what was coming out wasn’t even words, or anything that looked like words. Why bother? While I was watching, I was thinking that here was another fine sample for you to send to whoever it is you’re sending these things to.

Loved the recap Sylvia. I agree that Eman was so fine in the hostage scene. I LOLed when he grabbed the gun that the incompetent fake Lirio set down. LOL at everyone in the undies and wearing pretty much what we expected with their personalities.
I was taken aback when Ilitia slapped MariVictoria numerous times while she was having a asthma attack. I too wonder why she couldn't reach inside her purse for her inhaler. Did anyone notice it wasn't until she asked Eman for help that he took charge of the situation and how did the fake Lirio drive off anyone. Was someone waiting on the side of the road for him LOL. Loved the hugs at the end between Eman and MariVictoria and Brandon and Ilitia; the right people fated for each other.

Where were all those agency employees when FauxLirio was sneaking into the agency?
At first I thought FauxLirio was going to be Fidel, taking the money back so Muñeca would get it for the orphanage and Lowrenzo would think it had just been stolen and it would be out of his greedy paws. But then I got a look at him, and his outfit was just not up to Team Lirio's classy standard. He didn't even have a t-shirt with a silver lirio custom-printed on the front.
So will this provide Emanuel with a handy alibi, or will everyone remember that Muñeca and Victoria said this is not the real Lirio?

Finally screen shots are loaded on the recap! My goodness, all it took was a nice cold lychee martini. I will master the machine!!
Audrey, I forgot that Gman said testosterones; that is so darn funny at the time I had to do a rewind. Thank you for reminding me. I am going to remember that one for sure. It's such a chick thing to say any normal guy would do a double take but poor Oli's head so addled right now he doesn't know up from down nor he from she.
Thanks for all your great comments everyone. True, I totally lucked out with this episode. Carlos thanks for the heads up because I was having a grumpy day and starting to complain to myself about recapping, but I knew with your hint that the episode was going to be a winner.
I really hope they publish outtakes from this show because I just KNOW they will be a scream.
Have a nice weekend everyone.

I tried to get Eman's most beeyootiful face when he was holding the gun but screen shots did NOT do him credit so I declined.
Today I took some folks to the local taqueria for fish taco friday and as we were standing in my line my assistant looked at the magazine rack and said, 'Whoa, there's a babe and a half!' It was our own Valentino Lanus on the cover of some magazine looking mighty fine indeed.

I was impressed, Sylvia...you have an assistant AND your own line at the taco place? You've arrived :).
Hmmm, now maybe I need to swing by the newsstand. Valentino Lanús was my first telenovio and he's only improved since we first met.

LOL yep that's me, I've made it to the top! She was also quite taken by the William Levy calendar. I should have grabbed the magazine. Oh well, maybe next fish taco Friday.
