La Que No Podía Amar #76 Wednesday 4/11/12
Labels: no-podia
BTW, the snake that Efrain brought in is a king snake, not a coral snake. Not poisonous, just saying.

Alexandra:
Thanks for putting up the page for us. We are eagerly awaiting your awesome snark-festivities.
"Red and yellow kill a fellow, red and black friend of Jack"
This one didn't have red stripes next to yellow - so non poisonous. However, even if it had been the poisonous look-alike coral snake, it would be really tough to get bitten. Their mouth is so small, it would have had to chew on the tip of a little finger to succeed in biting.
I have only seen one coral snake in the wild (in TX) and I have seen plenty of other snakes, so it felt like a privilege.

I was in shock that Efrain would do this. Up till now he's been a possessive lover (Sinthia), a rescuer (Maripaz from Rutilio), a jerk (Macaria), and a prankster (Tia MentiRosa), but I never would have picked him for a killer. He has no conscience. I'm also convinced he doesn't see Sinthia's crazy. He's blinded by his obsession. Makes me wonder whether he's just waiting for her inheritance now and a way to abscond with it (the clue being his comment about Gustavo doing so). I hope when Rogelio returns ambulatory that he will be the one to catch them together.
My sympathy for Vainessa is now officially over. Her deliberate attempt at humiliating Ana Paula last night did it. This also could precipitate a miscarriage. Here's hoping Ulisses can keep quiet, but that's still a long shot.
Here's something that just occurred to me: What if the operation works, but Rogelio decides to fake paralysis for a while in the hope that his enemies will become careless?
The Guscake is getting too possessive. Especially when he and Mersnotty were ganging up on Ernesto to find out where Rohell was. Even though he told them about the surgery and Rohell needing calmness. Mersnotty should understand this cause she is a nurse.

I think it should be a foregone conclusion that Cupcake ends up with Rohell. At least one person in a couple should have a brain, and it doesn't seem as if the Gustavito does, and the Cupcake doesn't, so that leaves Rohell! LOL.
I was also shocked when Efrain handled the snake. He doesn't seem the type to do that. He's a lover, a prankster, but he's not violent or evil. We'll see how that goes.
I assumed Sin and Efrain planned to cause AP to miscarry and not kill her, but maybe I'm naive. When Efrain was teasing Tia on their guard watch the other day, I thought this scene was just comic filler. But now I realize it established Efrain's knowledge on critters, so I'm hoping his choice of snake was well thought-out. He's no damn good, but I get a kick out of Efrain. Surely, he's not stupid enough to try to kill the patron's wife, even for Sin.
The stress of so many people dumping on Ana Paula (Vanessa, Don So and So, etc) I think are going to be enough to lead this woman to lose that child.
Gustavo and his heavy breathing in every scene is getting very old.
Sorry, that kid also gets on my last nerve (the one with the girly name).
Sinthia is beyond sick (and her crazy outfits are old news). I think she and that scruffy, dirty looking Efrain deserve each other.
I agree that Gustavo is really a childish, macho jackass. Cupcake might not be a genius --although I think she is intelligent but usually misguided by emotion-- but I think she eventually gets a good reading on people and at some point she iwll find Gustavo as obnoxious as the rest of us do.
I must say things are really getting exciting around the Hacienda.
The Mexican milk snake looks so much like a coral snake. It's a beauty! (apologies to those who can't stand to even look at snakes) The difference is that the yellow rings are banded in black, separating the red from the yellow Mexican milk snake. In the coral snake, the red and black alternate between the yellow rings.

If anything were to happen to AP or Margarito, wouldn't Rogelio's wrath fall on him, Hugo, Maria, and everyone else at the ranch? If anything, Sinthia could only potentially benefit from Rogelio's death because there is nobody else (that anyone knows of) to inherit. All she would have to do then is destroy the letter stating that Margarito is Rogelio's son.
I am amused that the longer AP takes to "clarify her feelings" the more confused and reactive she seems to become. Because, of course, if you can't stand back from your emotions and analyze them somewhat dispassionately, you'll never get anywhere! You have to be able to discern priorities. Instead I think she is trying to put off that kind of decision making because she is just too overwhelmed by it all. An unexpected pregnancy would be overwhelming even in the best of circumstances.
I still see AP's "love" for Rogelio as being immature just like her "love" for Gustavo. Her love for Rogelio seems based on the extreme romancing he has done for her, gratitude, and idealization of Rogelio's past "noble" actions. Same kind of pedestal as Gustavo. She's still dreamy-eyed. It'll be interesting to see if the writers can convincingly mature AP to the point where the love seems realistic rather than idealized.
Audrey
All I know, is that those two truly deserve each other.
Audrey
Either way, I think I'm done with these two. Efrain is very funny with the Tia but this is a giant step too far. And my sympathy for Cinthia and her upbringing are waning as she gives in to her crazy. Maybe she and Elsa could get a bulk discount on the manicomio.
Ernesto is such a voice of reason here (dealing with his brat of a daughter, dealing with his brat of a girlfriend who thinks she can demand he break patient privacy). I'm not sure he belongs in San Gabriel.
Kelly
To the actor who plays Gustavo, for your next role please make it different, now in 2 TN's you were the cheesecake the lead wanted, and then you went on a crusade and lost out, let's move into a different direction in your career, I think you deserve better.
wish that ernesto would drop mercedes, he is too good for her
btw, i really hope that everything that happened in the avances happens tonigt & that they weren't teasing us for the nxt couple of episodes!
I would guess that if it ever looked like Margarito's parentage was about to come to light, Sin would start planning his demise as well.
Gosh, do you think at some point she might even want Rogelio gone so that it's "all hers"?
Audrey
That is one cracked hacienda household - I think it's one of the reasons I enjoy the show so much LOL!
So far agreed - Esteban and Ernesto are the only ones with clear heads on their shoulders, and it provides much needed relief at times. And Esteban sure can wear those form-fitting trousers! (Wait - did I write that out loud!?! - LOL!)
Audrey
The way she was cramping at the end makes me fear she may miscarry if the snake doesn't bite her first.
What a mess Rog will be coming home too. I couldn't believe how Gus and Mercedes ganged up on Ernesto to tell them where Rog was. Those two really gets on my nerves.
Per the previews, Gus arrives at Rog's hospital room. Will he open his bigmouth and tell Rog the news?
And as for stress causing a miscarriage, I doubt it EXCEPT in telenovelandia. Think of all the unwanted pregnancies and the stress they cause. Just because a pregnancy causes stress doesn't make it go away. It's going to take a lot more to knock that little mini-cake out of the easy-bake.
UA, you made some excellent points about Efrain. I thought he had a line he wouldn't cross but apparantly not. He did looked somewhat shocked and horrified when Sin unveiled her plan but obviously not enough to run screaming from the room.
I'm enjoying the recaps and comments far more than the story now. But, that may change when Jorge reappears. Let it be soon. Please.
Happy early weekend all.

A VERY YOUNG JORGE SALINAS!!! He looks about 12, but with that Rogelio Montero voice. It's quite disconcerting. Okay, he looks older than 12, but still, sooooooo young. His voice sounds the same and his dimples are still there! It was such a trip to see him looking so young.
Okay, end of fangirl hijack.
Back to the episode discussion: I never doubted that Margarito was Rohell's kid. It all seemed to make sense to me, that this was leading up to Rohell's "happy ending," in case he doesn't get to father anymore kids--that he still gets to have a flesh and blood child of his own. But we'll see how it goes, certainly this show is full of twists and turns and lots of surprises! :D
Click here (links to my blogspot blog).
This blog seems to have started to function for a LQNPA fangirl page. I didn't plan it that way, but that's how it's turned out! LOL
Gus is getting on my last nerve. When AP wanted him, he didn't want her. Nothing has changed, but now he wants her. UGH.
If AP miscarries, I won't be unhappy. I actually hope she does. Rog doesn't need her to have another man's baby.
On the other hand, what sort of message would it give if he can only be happy if he's out of the chair? Another thing they've tried to explore in this novela is how Rogelio is not at "peace" with his disability. That's what's causing all his behavior and crappy personality. That's his main malfunction—how he's taking being disabled. So maybe the big triumph for him at the end would be to come to terms with it and be happy in the chair, the way many, many disabled people in real life must do. So in a way, my thoughts almost from the start were that they kind of had to keep him in that chair, to cement that message to everyone. That life does not end because you're in a chair, and hey look, Jorge Salinas played this totally hot guy, interesting, vital guy, and he never left that chair but he had a happy ending just the way that he was—in the chair.
So I have been very divided and conflicted, right from the start of this novela, about how it should turn out for Rohell. Either way would work for me.
These are the thoughts I had almost right from the start, so take them as you will! :D
The reason I think Rohell will walk is that they keep showing him sitting on a bench WITH A CANE in the lead in. Who needs a cane who is paralyzed from the waist down?
I found it so bizarre that they actually reshot scenes in order to avoid us seeing him in the wheelchair, but they did!
I don't know what browser you use, but there's a marvellous add-on for Firefox that is now in Beta for Chrome and Safari called Lazarus. It saves everything you type in the browser and lets you retrieve it. You can tell it how long to save things for. It has saved my bacon MANY times, especially on this forum, since I too have had continual problems. You can find out more information about Lazarus at http://lazarus.interclue.com/.
