Una Familia Con Suerte #213-214 Wed 4/18/12 "I am as lonely and deserted as a fat dog!"
The only time I'm going to say it: I swear by my dead mother, even though Frida moves my needle, it's you I love and I'll do right by you.
Ana and Lupita are both feeling good and enjoying Adrian with stuffed dog and flowers. They're very cute, I'm glad to see Lupita playing puppets with her doggie (saying if Adrian wants to kiss Ana, she'll pretend she's asleep). He tries to press his suit but Ana says stop the car! But she tells Lupita later that she likes him! They'll get out tomorrow. Ana says she's learned her lesson and will never do it again.
Auditor-Barbie is flapping papers around with her badly-hatted assistant when Candy shows up with flowers, flaunting her boobs and introducing herself as Vince's WIFE. She knows her husband and how to manage him. She doesn't want any problems. She sashays out. The auditor is amazed - crazy encounters with two women associated with Irabien.
Pepe's back with his Sirena, but he's a bit sad for Frida. Pancho jokes that Frida is "not of our class."
He's upset that Frida lied and implied "something" happened the night she spent at his apartment. And Frida admits to her boss that she lied because she was desperate.
Vince tells Enzo about Candy's plan to be never boring. "You better not lose her." "But I can't control the seductor inside me!"
Auditor-Barbie sucks up to Pancho a lot. He says he'll take her on huge long tours of Avon. She makes a simpering face and agrees. Her assistant mocks her.
Chela, Candy, and Rebe gossip about Auditor Barbie. FF
Freddy tells Ana he's going to work at Avon, be more independent, cut the umbilical cord, also, he and moms are going on vacation so he wants to say goodbye. Ana tells Lupita his insecurity and his kiss with Karen , she hasn't forgiven him. But Adrian is grown up. "Are you ready to be a stepmother?"
Frida doesn't want Pepe's pity - if she can't have his love she wants nothing. Stomps off.
Enzo tells Pancho about being offered the job in Monterrey. Enzo's waffling about it - he thinks the baby is too young to move - Pancho suggests he try out the new job temporarily, see how he likes it.
Once again it's a full moon in Mexico!!
Lupita and Ana are home. The incredibly handsome Tomas shows up with flowers. Pancho's jealous that Lupita is so happy to see her BF. "That's life," Tomas advises him. FF He is amazed at how wonderful she is. "I admire and love you more than ever." FF
Adrian and his daughters show up unannounced in Ana's bedroom! Daughters Irasu and Melanie meet Temo. FF
Monica has worn the WORST clothes since she came back from Paris! And her neon hair! Frida shows up AGAIN and threatens Moni with her crutch!! Moni says "you lost. And I'm not in Paris, I'm here!" On one foot Frida wants a punching match! It's just pathetic. Pepe drives up and sees the end of this ridiculous scene. Frida is hysterical. Moni is secure enough to leave and let Pepe take sobbing #2 to her home. He gives a very strong, careful explanation to her. She stumps off to her shack.
In her skintight dress Auditor Barbie slinks through the plant with Pancho, whose shirt is unbuttoned most of the way to his belly button. Boxes come crashing down and crush Pancho right on top of Auditor Barbie! She strokes him, he pulls himself away. That wasn't a very good demonstration of good practices on anybody's part! She hugs him in front of all his employees.
Leaving for the airport, Freddy calls Ana to tell her he loves her. She can't say much with Adrian sitting right there on her bed waiting for an answer to his daughter's question: "Do you like my daddy, Ana?" He continues to press his suit. FF
The gossip about the hug is sweeping through Avon. Sandra spreads it to Quetita at the very moment when Auditor Barbie and Pancho, holding hands, go into his office.
Meanwhile at home Rebe is sobbing "I am as lonely and deserted as a fat dog." I liked that one. She and Candy decide to go visit Pancho at work, where Pancho served booze to Auditor Barbie to serve her nerves after almost being crushed by boxes of perfume. She massages his hand very thankfully. Many employees mass outside his door waiting for them to come out. Quetito decides to go in - "I really love Rebe! I didn't know my boss was like all other men!" Auditor Barbie is leaning in closer, closer...
Enzo tells Chelo the plan: to go and give being president of Company X a try - while he's gone, they'll try out various candidates for his job.
Candy and Rebe hear the gossipping Avon girls - "Pancho and Isabella are ... they kissed in the warehouse..." Rebe sobs. Pancho and Isabella have a goodbye kiss witnessed by horrified Sandra and Quetita.
I think Rebe is pretty hysterical as a hysterical pregnant woman infuriated and miserable because she's too pregnant to compete with Auditor Barbie. She asks for a lot of treats and continues crying. He does a good job of reassuring her. Him, and the donuts.
Meanwhile Candy, after warning Sandra not to gossip, spreads the gossip about Auditor Barbie and Pancho to VInce, who isn't happy to hear it.
Chacho is happy with Viagra.
Adrian is, reluctantly leaving, but he and the girls will return tomorrow. He's such a barnacle!! They kiss for a very long time. She accepts his offer to be novios but they have to go slow because she still has some feelings for Freddy.
Good God, Auditor Barbie has actually barged into Rebe's bedroom while she's in her jammies eating treats! Candy leaves. How do you feel? "Do you really want to know? After a productive working life, now I'm in bed feeling like a gigantic milking yard (dairy farm, jail, wayside inn are other translations offered by wordreference.com) and everybody at work thinks you're having an affair with my husband and you ask me how I feel?" After repeating herself several times she asks Auditor Barbie to leave. then she apologizes to Pancho. I think Auditor Barbie has cheek transplants.
Napoleon! And a transvestite named Salome! I guess she's not a transvestite, she just looks like one. She gives him an itty-bitty statue. Or is it a voodoo doll? He has some machinations in the works which are very expensive. She says she's his, unconditionally. It's vengeance on Candy he wants - "we'll make her sorry she was ever born." Fear.
Pancho cheers Rebeca by saying there are some things she can do besides cry. Fix up the baby's room! Decorate the house for Christmas!
Tomorrow: Napoleon has a spy camera in Vince and Candy's bedroom and he watches them play policewoman and suspect. Auditor Barbie blubbers over Pancho.

I like Isabella. I know she really likes Pancho, but she even went to Rebe and explained what happened with the accident. Those gossip girls at Avon are terrible.
Chacho made me laugh about his Viagra pills.
I think Adrian and Ana are moving way too fast. And Ana is so not ready to be a stepmom, she is way too young.
Napo now wants to put the fear of Napo into Candy? The poor thing has always been terrifed of him. I wonder what he is going to do now? Salome can't hold a candle to our poor departed Deborah. She doesn't even look scary.
Hurray Pepe, it's about time. Yes Moni was a class act all the way. Adrian and Frida could cling together?
More later my ipad is dying...
I had a huge chuckle at Frida's pathetic display because it made me think of Monty Python's Black Knight. LOL! Wow, the girl had no shame. I was proud of the way both Pepe and Moni handled the situation.
I would like to point out that the Avon women weren't the only ones doing the gossiping. The gossip started with the men in the plant and then the male delivery guy/messenger who spread it to the ladies upstairs. I liked how firm Candy was with telling the exec secretaries not to gossip. She did tell Vince, but it's not like he has any friends to tell it to.
Is Rebe clinically depressed? I mean, this is becoming an ongoing issue, not just a 1-2 episode joke.
Looks like Pancho is starting to realize that Bella realy does like him. But he doesn't look interested-- just nervous.
I still find Adrian creepy and pushy. This is a grown man with a business in another town and two daughters. Yet, he's put all his time and effort into pursuing a very young, unstable woman. I don't care if he's more confident than Freddy. Ana has some major issue in the self-confidence department too, and he and Ana are closer in age and are both learning and maturing. That is normal. It is not normal, in my mind, for a man as mature and put together as Adrian to choose Ana for a mate and possible step-mom for his kids.
Hormones in pregnancy differ. Some are way out of wack and some are normal. Rebe's falls somewhere in the middle. I think she feels she isn't attractive anymore, cause she is always eating and she feels like a puffed up baloon. A lot of women get this way in the 9th month. Rebe is starting early I guess. I think she's bored too, cause she misses her work.
Vivi, I have to agree with you, I was wondering what was bothering me about Adrian, and you head it on the head. These two actors have been a couple before on Cuidado con el Angel, but I don't feel it here. Am surprised with these developments since Pina said a few episodes ago that she knows Ana is truly Freddy's love. My poor poor Freddy.
And, what was up with Frida? I did not expect that at all from her. It was embarrassing.
And Napo, our mafioso, what is he going to do to Candy? Is it just Candy or is it also Vins?
You guys realize that Isabellazon, in real life, is 52 years old.....
Julie, if she and Poncho hook up, the chances are slim to none on having a child....you think?
You can see her age on the close up facial shots.....but you cannot tell by the rest of her.
She still lags behind Violetazon in the overall Amazon contest.....I am just saying.
I was surprised Pancho encouraged Enzo to try out the other job. (Is the telecom going to be okay with a guy just "trying out" a job and not committing to it?) How will Avon survive with Enzo gone AND Rebe out of commission? Also, did they ever get Lamberto out of jail? Maybe Rebe needs to at least take some tasks that she can do at home in between naps and sobbing. She really needs something to focus on even if she doesn't feel up to being in the office all the time.
Oh, Frida. That was just sad. I did like how seeing her like that turned Moni around from anger to pity. Frida needs more help than Pepe can give her. She seems so adrift.
Let's hope the Frida plot is over and she finds a nice man and some friends.
Vivi - yes you hit the nail on the head regarding Adrian & Ana. Pancho told him Ana wasn't ready to be a step-mom. And the previews show Freddy getting naked with Karina. Make this story end, please.
I was really uncomfortable watching Frida hopping around Moni, trying to be threatening. I hope she feels she's finally reached rock-bottom, because otherwise I'd hate to think what she'd do next.
Adrian is being a vulture to press his luck with Ana while she's sick and Fred will be away; but he's also being stupid. Ana was sort of on the rebound when they got together, and she'll probably always associate him with this miserable bulemic time in her life. He's quite the fool if he thinks this is going to go anywhere.
Speaking of something going somewhere, I didn't like the avances for tonight!
Adrian may be well-meaning, but he is a creep. I do not like this dynamic at all, especially his pushing her into a noviazgo while she's in such a vulnerable state. Ugh. Go back to Guadalajara, dude. There must be one or two more suitable available ladies there.
Frida was so pathetic challenging Moni, for her part Moni handled it perfect. Loved the big smile Pepe had when he announced he was back with Moni to his family. Hadn't seen him smile like that in ages. Also glad Pepe leveled with Frida once and for all. For all the good it may do.
Basta ya Rebe with the hormones, I've known many pg women and none ever acted like she does. No reason she can't work and channel those tears to something useful.
loable - commendable, laudable
joroba - hunchback, pain in the neck nuisance
adefesio - hideousness, eyesore
ñera - idiot, jerk
chimuelo - toothless
matraca - rattle, pesky person, rattletrap car
hacer lo que el viento a Juárez - to have no effect, to be like water off a duck's back Here is a page which explains it.
cosificar - to objectify
Wow, ultimas semanas. I hope this means they'll up the comedy and drop the melodrama. And I want to see Pina with a good man.
Glad I'm missing the hysterical pregnancy storyline. I was somewhat fatigued the intitial three months of my first pregnancy, but after that actually felt better than normal. And worked up to and through the early stages of labor as a reporter. Granted, I wasn't carrying twins, but still....
Julia..gracias as always for those marvelous vocab items and the historical background on "...viento a Juarez". Would never have figured that one out!
This is a way to get the summer going with a new show, and what a way to bring it in...with my eternal girlfriend Lucero.
From what I remember reading and listening of the producer and such, we'll have both drama and commedy in these last weeks. It will be kind of a rollercoaster.
We'll see sole old characters and be introduced to some new ones. Hang on for the ride!
I may have to post my pro-Frieda thoughts tomorrow as well because I just got to this at the end of the day and Frieda deserves better!
JPcruzer, do you know what the new TN will be? Oh please please please Silvia Navarro please please...
