Triunfo del Amor #32 2/15/11 Major Family Problems at Casa Sandoval
Well, first of all, I’d like to thank Novela Maven for last night’s recap! I enjoyed it mucho. Especially about Max’s “naked neck.” Hilarious. ☺
Anyways, I’m gonna be kind of brief today. Forgive me. I know I’ve been neglecting Caray; I promise I’ll try harder to be a better recapper. That being said, lemme begin. Ahem….
• Bernarda insults Maria Magdalena, calls her trash. JP tells Bernarda that he wants to reunite Victoria with her daughter. He’s determined.
• I may have missed a few episodes. Some old woman is looking for evidence against Bernarda. [Plz help.]
• Bernarda tells Juan Pablo not to defy her. He tells her to butt out; this is between Maria Magdalena and him. The pimp (?) walks into the room, laughing about seeing a priest and some old woman with MM. Bernie leaves and tells JP never to speak to her again. [That’s a punishment?]
• Linda wonders why Maria feels guilty about makin love to Max. Maria says she loves him, but she always thought she’d do it after marriage. Linda tells her she’s too old school. She mentions something about Osvaldo getting her an apartment. Maria is impactada.
• At Televisa, Os whines to Guillermo that Victoria doesn’t pay attention to him. Guillermo warns him that Vicki is a jealous type. When she finds out…
• Linda says she accepted an apartment and cash from Osvaldo. Maria tries to talk some decency into her, but Linda’s not interested.
• Guillermo says the last people to know about affairs are wives.
• The old woman [a maid—Oh, replacement of Tomasa I think] is looking for evidence still.
• Ximena walks the ramp. Pepino tells her that she doesn’t look relaxed. Ximena is complaining about Maria Desamparada taking her spot. Pepino tells her how nice, professional, and lovely MD is. She’s going to have to share the spotlight for a change. [How did this girl become a model? She doesn’t look cute to me at all.]
• Padilla gives a watch to Bernarda. She asks from where he got it.
• Maria Magdalena is smokin’ something weird. She tells the pimp that if she’s Victoria’s daughter, she’s gonna take the fortune and live with Vicki. Pimp gets physical and angry.
• Bernie is giving some money to Padilla for the watch. He wants more, but she doesn’t agree. He’s obliged to accept her offer, but she wants to know where it came from…
• Maria is going somewhere and bids Nati goodbye. Nati compliments Milagros’ ring. They briefly mention Juan Jo.
• Shower scene with Juan Jo is not sexy at all. He walks out of the shower because the water’s cut. Nati’s in his room and wipes his back with a towel. I find this awkward, but maybe it’s just me. She runs out when he jokes about taking his towel off…(?) He screams after her to tell Linda that he’s acomin for her. Loser.
• Linda is sitting on the counter with a duster while Nati’s cleaning. Nati tells her to help her with the chores so she can later go to Juan Jo’s fireman party. Linda says she’s not born to clean, and she wonders why Maria never helps them with housework. Nati says Maria always helps her with everything. Phone rings. It’s Osvaldo. He’s going to visit Linda soon. He kisses her over the phone and hangs up.
• Max steps into Os’s office to talk to him about Victoria.
• Victoria tells Antonieta that she can’t change even though she promised Osvaldo. Os doesn’t know anything about her; he thinks she’s obsessed with her work. She just wants to know if Maria Magdalena is her daughter. Luci calls Vicki’s office. PADILLA IS HERE TO SEE VICTORIA! Antonieta tries to get rid of him, but he storms in.
• Maria confesses to padre that she did it with Max again [did I miss that?!] Padre asks if it were against her will. Nope. She was more than willing. He asks if Max made any false promises and whatnot [Wake up and smell the peppermint white mocha, JP. She did it by choice!] She said she did it because she wanted to be his. JP asks what she plans on doing. Maria’s just there because she doesn’t want to be a hypocrite. She loves Max; it doesn’t have to do with lust [Yeah, rightttt. I say that every time I look at WL too…It’s not about lust at all…]
• Victoria tells Antonieta to scram. She’s going to talk to Padilla. He says he’s there to remind her about their night together [what a freakin’ monster]. He wants money from her.
• Max asks Osvaldo what’s up with him and Victoria. Osvaldo doesn’t want to talk about it. He starts to leave, but Max says he loves them both and doesn’t want them to break up. Osvaldo promises that they’ll soon go on vacation, hold hands, run around rainbows, and everything will be fine. [Yeh, I added the rainbow crap, but he might have well said it.] Max thinks it’ll be too late.
• Maria thanks JP for everything. She asks why he looks so down. He tells her to be careful; he understands what young people like to do, but she needs to maintain moral and all. She lets him know how much she loves him and is there for him if he needs her. He thanks her.
• Padilla threatens to tell Osvaldo about Victoria’s past. Vicki tells him to beat it; she asks how much money he wants. [DON’T GIVE IN!]
• Max is a marriage counselor all of a sudden. He’s givin’ daddy suggestions on how to save his marriage. Osvaldo tells him that Victoria doesn’t have time for him, and he’s tired of waiting.
• Nati asks why Linda isn’t going to Juan Jo’s party. Linda says she’ll gift Nat with Juan Jo. Noble skank. She leaves. Nati worries about what to tell Juan Jo.
• Max is telling his dad that it’s best for everyone that Osvaldo and Victoria patch up. Os tells Max the truth—Max is talking about his mother, not Osvaldo’s wife. They’re two different perspectives. Osvaldo tells him that he needs a woman at his side, and unfortunately, it ain’t Victoria anymore. Max has the cute face of a child let down.
• Cruz tells Napo that he’s in love. Napo pokes fun and asks who the victim is. He tells him that it’s the boss’s daughter.
• Gaby tells Fer that the gardener is hot. Fer complains that he kissed her by force.
• Napo thinks it’s great since Max is going to be with Maria Desamparada.
• Fer tells Gaby that they hired him because they felt bad for him. Gaby tells Fer that she must’ve liked the kiss. Fer denies.
• Cruz and Napo talk about the kiss…ok, sorry, I’m in a hurry! I’m going to rush a little more…
• Milagros is getting interviewed?! She tells about the letters. She stands up and says hello on TV to Juan Jo, Cruz, and Napo. She’s a sweetheart.
• Napo, Juan Jo, and Cruz are in uniform…they talk about sacrificing life for others and all…the danger of fires…blah blah…They enter Maria’s apartment. Nati lies to Juan Jo he looks guapo. He asks for Linda, but Nati again lies that Linda had work. Cruz and Napo are like sureeee. They all leave. Juan Jo comes back and asks Nati if she wants to come. She’s happy as heck.
• The Old Padre comes to talk to JP. JP feels sad. Maria Magdalena is his daughter…he understands people who want to help their children with drug addictions and such now.
• Antonieta thinks Victoria made a huge mistake. Victoria doesn’t want Padilla to threaten her anymore. She says she’s going to tell Osvaldo the truth.
• JP…more depressing talk…He now realizes that it’s their job to protect people…
• Milagros asks JJ why Linda’s not here. She had work, so he brought Nati. Milagros tells Nati that she’s going to fix her hair. Napo asks JJ if he doesn’t think that Linda should have took time off to be with him. Juan Jo’s an idiot.
• Ximena comes to see Guillermo. Ofelia and Pedro are there. Ximena gives a gift to Guill, and they invite her to stay. They tell her that Osvaldo’s having an affair. Ximena is excited. Pedro gets mad at Ofelia for telling. In another room, Guill and Ximena make out and do it…[gross].
• Nati has a ponytail. How cute. Some guy shows off his girl friend. Blah blah.
• Osvaldo and Linda are in bed. Os says that Victoria only thinks of him when she needs him. Linda takes advantage of that thought; she always wants to be with him. Os tells Linda never to change [BIG MISTAKE]. She says she’ll never come between him and his family…
• Victoria comes into the house. She needs to talk to Osvaldo asap. Max tells her that Os isn’t there. He worries that she looks nervous. She needs to talk to Osvaldo about her past. She doesn’t know where to start. How about from the beginning, Max suggests. Fer comes to show Victoria a drawing, but Victoria is really distressed and doesn’t want to see. [For the first time, I feel bad for Fer. I’ve seen kids get sad like that.] She tells Fer that she needs to talk to Max about something really important. Max feels bad for Fer and tells his mom that it was mean to blow off his sister. She apologizes for being nervous, and Max tells her to listen to others. Phone rings. Bernarda and asks for Osvaldo. She says she has important things to tell Os about his wife. Max has a WTF face on. My mom, he asks. Bernarda says, forgive me, but you’re not Victoria’s son; you’re her stepson. Max is PO. Who’s calling? Bernarda says she wants to enlighten Osvaldo and tell the truth about Vicki, who betrayed Osvaldo all these years.

Cielo de Levy thanks for the funny recap enjoyed it very much.
Word of caution never use the name LindaHo' and the word decency in the same sentence see it doesn't look right now does it?
Of course Maria D. you didn't do it with Max for the second time because you lusted after him. Of course every time i see William Levy on my screen it's not lust either it's just appreciating art. Or the fabulous dramas he works in not believing me are ya? I don't think JP was falling for that line either.
Burnarda's new housekeeper since she bumped off Tomasa is named Eva she's working in tandem with Fausto.
When Milagros volunteer to do Nati's hairdo couldn't she have just called extreme makeover for the girl.
Nati you really need to get those eyes of yours checked out you called JJ handsome?
Please Mejia for the love that is all that is holy no more frightening scenes of Guillermo with any females and food UGH!.
Last but certainly not least one has to wonder what exactly is Victoria standards of what a model should look like? I mean from the stable she has i've seen better at elementary schools than what she is displaying as her best models.

A great recap Cielo. All major points covered with the perfect amount of snark. I especially loved the rainbow commentary.
Just when I thought this TN couldn't gross me out any more, they throw in the JuanJo shower scene. EWWWW!
The makeover has begun. Nati got her hair brushed last night! My only concern is that she still seems hung up on JuanJo. Oh ye gods of the telenovela, please keep Nati with Fab.
I'm with Blusamurai, I'm having trouble believing these girls are models.
For me, Os officially went from schmuck to bastard last night.
And OMG, for the love! Victoria, hire some decent security! Burnie and Padilla seem to be able to come and go at will.
Seems we are going to have to wait a while for the confession. *sigh*

Cielo- Thanks so much. We know how busy you are. This slam, bam recap covered everything.
MD and Max did it off scree in the park yesterday. We did not have the pleasure of seeing any of it. Instead we got plenty of Linda and Os, and Gui and every other ho.
Why oh why if they HAD to get a random soccer star who can't act to play Juan Jo, couldn't they get someone HOT. At least there would be some eye candy during those awkward scenes when his comedic timing is totally off and he can't remember his lines.

Good work; you covered all the important points.
Eva and Fausto are looking for evidence that Bernarda set the fire years ago.
Just when I thought they couldn't find anyone more gross-looking that RatTatScuzzboy they find this creep with tattoos on his face. Maria Magdalena couldn't have fallen any farther.
JP, I find it increasingly difficult to believe that Bernardracula is your mother. You are better off without her.
To the other padre: Watch out for Bernardracula and her hubris. She is poison.
Victoria: Tell Osvaldo now.
I am personally amused by Guillermo's food/sex orgies. I wonder whether they will do a red wine scene similar to the one with Ruth in FELS. This must be a fetish of Mejia's or something.
As to the Roman emperor comment I made yesterday, GGC would be quite believable in a toga; he has a Roman face.
As to the models at Victoria's, have you seen the latest crop of them here? They have dead faces and bodies like concentration camp rescues. No wonder girls today have such bad body images of themselves.

Thanks for the recap, CdL. Well done and I appreciate it. I'll have to FFWD--> thru my recording to see Nathi's ponytail. She reminds me of LFMB and perhaps her transformation will parallel it. Wouldn't it be wonderful if she ends up drop-dead gorgeous?
"She asks from where he got it." --- High five, CdL, for perfect grammar. It looks so weird when it is written out, doesn't it?
.....a shower scene that grossed out Viewerville? Eeew. Bad form, Mejía. Beefcake, please.
So Max is playing Dr. Phil to Os and becoming TDA's "voice of reason." Isn't it rare that the protagonist is The Voice of Reason in a telenovela?
How do Padilla and Burnie now each other?
re: Gui and the food . . . maybe there be a parody of the food scene parody in "Hot Shots!" ? One can only hope....

Doris, Padilla rents his hovel from Bernarda.
Does anyone remember whether there was anything engraved on the back of the watch?

Thanks Cielo de Levy. I truly enjoyed your whirlwind yet hilarious recap. I can't think of anything important that you left out.
JuanP needs to issue MariaD a card for him to punch every time she has sex with Max. I'm beginning to wonder if she's confessing or bragging. She certainly doesn't seem contrite and basically told him, "Yep, and I'm probably gonna do it again." Party on, MariaD.
Carlos

Carlos
"Party on, MariaD." LOL Carlos! She wasn't contrite at all. And he really didn't do a very good job of laying on the guilt trip about it being a sin and all. But at the same time, his "protect yourself" talk didn't extend to...with condoms or the pill. I know we're talking the Catholic Church here, but if he's going to be so lax with one rule, he might as well be lax with another that makes common sense. He, more than anyone else, knows what can come from unprotected sex-- a crazy ex lover, a harpy mom, and a whore for an iligitimate child. :)
I had to 'cue the kayak' on this show BUT the writing of the Recappers is not to be missed! Jardinera: guilt and gelt?!!! Trip to the dictionary thank you! Punch card Carlos?! I love this blog.
Thanks everyone!
@Blusamurai: Appreciating art, huh? I like it. :)
@Sara and Vivi: Juan Jo was gross. Ew! Why of why.
@Urban Anthro: Thanks for filling me in on Fausto and Eva.
@Doris: LOL, I thought about it for about 30 seconds--the "from" and was like to heck with it! I know it's right.
@Carlos: HAHA! That's a great suggestion!
@Bonney: Glad to have you, dear!

Super job, Cielo -- smart, fast and funny! Thank you! AND you finished your homework too -- that's what we want to hear!
I'm glad you liked yesterday's recap (although next time you're in 'edit mode', you might want to move NovelaMaven back down to the peanut gallery -- aka the comments section -- where she belongs) :)
Carlos -- I, too, love the punch card suggestion (though I believe there's an app for that)
Urban,
As for models looking like models on novelas -- in the case of a featured player, it almost never happens (as you well know!). The one exception I can think of is the character Valeria on Telemundo's "Alguien te Mira". And in the first episode of TdA, it looked like they used real runway models in the gala opening event.
Real runway models tend to be super tall, slender and modestly endowed, top and bottom. Sometimes they are ethereally beautiful but they rarely satisfy the Latino esthetic of what makes for an attractive woman. So an actress with these physical attributes is unlikely to be part of the studio company.
But beauty queens who can't act are a staple of TNs. Check out Eva Luna.
Sara and Vivi, I think the JuanJo shower scene suggests a new Premio category: The "Keep your Shirt On" award. Contenders so far: JuanJo, Guillermo, ScuzzBoy and yes, Osvaldo. And ¡Ay caray! -- Keep that Alacran guy fully clothed at all times!

Thanks for the recap. I was still trying to figure out the Eva and Fausto thing. MM's pimp are you serious!!! The way he was killing(eating) the chicken was grossing me out!!! Yeah, the shower scene was not attractive. Although if Nati is gonna a crush on a guy at least he is a nice one albeit a very blind when it comes to "LindaHo" (I just love that nickname LOL!). I am worried about what Televisa considers fashionable. I realize Nati is supposed to dress 'unattractive' but her shirts look like something a child would wear. The Max and Os scene was bit weird! I don't think kids really discuss their parents' love life, do they??!!!
I have to agree with the comments about the models. Maria D. is as close as they have come to what I envision for the catwalk.
Ximena's character is a mystery to me. If she wants Gui then why is she all about Max? Is this Vic's doing? Also, I think I've seen enough of Os and Linda's make out sessions at this point? Ick. I'd rather see our Max and Maria D.

Thanks for your recap Cielo. I enjoyed discussion about lust. I don't think any of us consider lust where WL is concern ;)
And Carlos your comment about Maria and her Dad, the padre - confessing or bragging; this was priceless.
Also thanks so much NovelaMaven for your great recap.

[How did this girl become a model? She doesn’t look cute to me at all.]
Because Victoria probably hooked Ximena up with a job so that Max would hook up with her and join the families together.

Amen, Carlos! Maria doesn't seem sorry at all to have had sex with Max. Which kind of disappoints me...but maybe it's a set up so she'll feel *really* sorry when she discovers she is preggers?
Sr. Alacrán totally creeps me out. Do you think that's a real tattoo? Looked legit to me. *shudder* His eating habits grossed me out, too Anon 2:54.
Seems Mejia is going out of his way to make this TN as disturbing as possible.

I think the pimp is the same guy that played the leader of the gypsies in Corazon Salvage. In that one he was bald and had a huge very real looking starfish scar on his head. He did not have a crab tatoo on his face like he does here. But interesting sea creature body art theme...
Cielo de Levy -- thank you! You added to the fun of watching and thinking about last night's episode.
I loved the scenes with JuanJo, Cruz, Napo. Can't act, getting good at it, highly skilled! What must it be like for these really skilled actors like Carmen Salinas and the actor who plays Napo to play against el futbolista"? I love it that they carry on in a completely professional way while he hesitates, flubs his lines, etc. I feel I can say this as someone who could never act, between a lack of talent and probable stage-fright!
Maria Desamparada is looking prettier with every episode -- no more braids on the top of her head. Her hair color and skin tone are beautiful.
Liking JP more all the time. He's a good soul who can't quite put it all together.

Sara, Vivi is correct, he was the bad gypsy, Servando, in Corazón Salvaje, and he also played a bad guy in la Fea Más Bella. Unless he acquired it recently, that is a temporary tattoo. He's pretty rough looking as he is, but this tattoo is certainly impressive. I really like this guy as an actor. He has been convincingly menacing and unlikable in everything I've seen him in.

El Alacrán is Sergio Acosta. He has been in a bunch of TNs. Among them FELS, Armando, but I don't remember who that is & CS.
Seems he always has a job, call Sergio, we need an ugly guy.
