El Talismán #93 Fri 6/8/12 DADDY LOVES ME–HE LOVES YOU NOT or OOPS DADDY’S BEEN SLEEPING AROUND (AND SO HAS MOMMY)
Your Intrepid Reporter feels some of lo de antes bears repeating. Antonio and Camila are having an intimate breakfast in the kitchen with Tracy and Alberta in attendance (and all ears, of which Antonio is keenly aware). The conversation is one sided. The Ant says Camila must eat for the sake of *HIS* hijo. He wants him to be born healthy and can’t wait to see him riding horses. What about names, my darling, he tries engaging her in conversation. Camila isn’t into playing his game, so he asks Tracy if she would like an hija or an hijo. She sputters whatever God sends. Antonio goes on and on about his future heir. He’d like a boy since he already has two girls. In the background Bertie is bug-eyed impactada. And, he declares to all ears present, he wants her to get pregnant again just as soon as this baby is born. Camila is seething. The Ant continues, oh, and what about taking childbirth classes.

Unraveling, spot-on!
My very favorites:
- Camila is getting her 30 min. a day in the exercise yard.
- All he has to do is put the money IN and the words will come tumbling OUT, just like a vending machine.
- Take that, bro (and I’ll see you behind the caterer’s trailer after the scene is done).
Amazingly, I understood every word of Flor's everyone-in-this-house-is-crazy rant -- probably because I feel that way myself.
I was LOL, I thought El Viral was going to lose at least hand when she went for MIO dinero. At least she is consistent.
Flor is spot on, every-in-this-house-is-crazy - at least there is one sane person in that household.
I wish they had given Camila a brain, some pretty clothes and a decent hairdresser. She is just plain dull.
What will the the Ant do to mess up the boda of Tia Maria and Manuel?
Looking forward to next week.
Rosemary Primera
How can that actress pick Aaron over Rafael? I'm not impressed with Aaron in this. Remember in Friends when Joey was talking about acting and one of the standard faces he makes before commercial breaks? The one where he imagines that he just smelled a fart? Aaron makes fart face every time someone makes him mad. He's probably better than that but fart face is all I see.
Kelly
You had so many clever lines, but I think this was my favorite: "(and I’ll see you behind the caterer’s trailer after the scene is done)". Oh yes indeedy, Aaron and Lola can barely contain themselves.
I almost fell out of my chair laughing when Flo exclaimed that everyone in the house must be crazy. Um, yep.
Kelly, LOL! Joey's fart face, yes!
Two big shocks in this episode: Doris telling Pigorio she knows Tony isn't his (it explains a lot), and Pedro showing up with a case of money.
Anita, you really started off with a bang, great title, and ended with another terrific Anita'ism, "Next Friday, June 15, is the big 2-hour unraveling (there is no wrapping up in this tn)." I am now looking forward to the 2-hour unraveling.
Loved Flor here. She just stood right up to The Beltbuckle. I am glad he didn't slap her.
Yay Angel. He told the Virus just as it is. He has the major avacadoes. He should throw her out.
Oh, the Pig, the Pig. Not knowing about his wife maybe shagging someone else and the Beltbuckle may not be his. What if Don Bernardo was the lover of Teresa ( I beleive that is the Pig's deceased wife' name.) Oh, the scandal. I'd like to know who his Daddy is.
The Virus and all that money. Will she really spill? I thought she would as soon as she saw that pile of money. I wonder who will spill to Pedro first that Cameela has a little Pedro bun in the oven. It is going around like wildfire.
Loved:
- Antonio twirling his non-existent moustache
- Angel getting halfway to first base with F2
- Camila is getting her 30 minutes/day in the exercise yard
- Antonio walks in to see his lov...er, sister.
- Brigitte's House of Masked Pleasures
- Por la Iglesia / uno, dos, tres
Thank you Anita!
I liked when Doris came in and announced that Lu is really alive, nobody cheered.
Icky Pig - saying he's done with Doris, except for in bed. I did like when he connected the dots that maybe there is some relationship between his past obssesion and Lu with Pedro.
LOL that Elvira thinking "cuz she wanted to" would suffice as an answer to give her the suitcase full of dinero.
The blue off the sleeve dress Camila wore to the wedding is the one she didn't choose from trying them on out shopping with Pedro that day, looking for a dress for Elvira's wedding. I remember it was my favorite of the trying on session.
I think F1 got another job in real life. I'd be surprised if she showed up next week. But, if she does, I hope she's visibly pregnant (given this is only a tv show).
Let the unraveling begin (good one, Sylvia).
Rosemary la Otra
Anita thought of "unraveling", I just quoted her. Why should I make up my own cracks when it is much easier just to copy everyone else?
If Elviral gets that money, yep she's gonna lose it right away. She's such a dumbass.
This show might have started out with a whimper but it's sure going to end with a bang thanks to the recappers. (Plus I watched the previews and they involve guns.)
So, if Antonio of the Buckle isn't Don Greg's and Lulu IS, then their icky obsession with each other is legit, right? Well, guess I forgot the little detail of the same mother. Neverrrr minddddd.
Ah, just read La Otra's comment. Well it's OK then. (I'm ignoring the jk. Nope, didn't see it.)
Antonio went to Palo Alto High School, same place where James Franco graduated. Must be something in the drinking fountains.
R#1--I don't think Antonio's going to mess up the boda as much as turn the spotlight away from the wedding couple and on himself and Camila. I sort of hope Camila faints again--or at least throws up on him. As luck will have it, Pedro will probably show up--then there might be a little clashing of caribou antlers. I agree with you that Camila has been pretty dull.
Kelly--If Elvira chose jail, at least she wouldn't be alone, she'd have a roof over her head, wouldn't have to cook for herself and she wouldn't need any CHEQUES....and the kids wouldn't have to feel guilty about not supporting her or keeping her on a leash to keep her from getting into trouble.
Madelaine--We *really* don't know if the Pig knew beforehand about Tony, but Doris certainly thought he did.
Oooh the possibilities on Tony's bio-dad. We have these possibilities in the right age range:
Don Bernardo
Valentin
hmmmm, I guess that's all, unless it was some handsome ranch hand that hasn't been introduced.
FUG will have to come out with a special advertising section with Tal*Mart memorabilia. Please add items between now and next Friday.
Anita
I think the Ant will have a fit when he sees Flor at the boda. Do you suppose he will bring his boda bag to toast the happy couple?
Rosemary Primera
Wasn't there speculation here from the beginning that the Pig might not be Antonio's daddy?
Now I'm pinning hopes on the possibility that Lucrezia has a different mother. With this group I think the chances of that are good. Does anyone have any difficulty imagining DonG abusing one of the household staff like Rogelio's daddy did with Maria to produce Cynthia in LQNPA?
When Maria invited Antonio and Camila to her wedding she didn't give him either a time or a location... just... this afternoon. I'm impressed that Antonio was able to find his way.
Elvira was wonderful in that last scene with Pedro and the money. Those facial expressions were priceless.
Carlos
I definitely like the "Who's Your Daddy?" swag. Maybe it can be on a boda bag.
Somehow Julietta Rosen seems unfazed and unscathed by this whole guacamole. She just keeps pumping out the La Marmota squeals like there's no end in sight. She's never boring, even when she's predictable. Unlike Camila.
Speaking of guacamole, that Angel has major pair of avocados. I wanted to hug him yesterday. He didn't back down to anyone, not Doris, not Elvira.
Maybe El Tal*Mart can sell some Angel Motivational CDs for listening while driving between Fresno and LA or Tijuana, "How to keep your avocados and your brains while surrounded by lunatics and high-pitched shrieking". That's not a great title, maybe someone can come up with something a bit more clever, but you get my drift.
And I still say that Santiago is also his, he has the same hair, same eyebrows... same acting skills.
Carlos
And don't forget we think F1 is Pig's too. Think eyebrows.
Carlos--thank you for the whole translation. This makes much more sense. I knew I had missed some key phrases.
Depending on how much time I have, I'll skim the last few weeks for any items Tal*Mart could have shipped, inventoried, and put on the shelves for us discriminating consumers.
Anita
I can't wait to see how this show lets loose in its final week. It has so much potential. I love Angel. I think he's the real hero here.
Mil gracias, Anita!
Rosemary Primera
I don't see Antonio having any sort of happy ending. I wouldn't be surprised if he meets his maker at the end. Panchito's got to end up with El Talisman so something will probably happen to both Lu and Tonio.
Doris might get strangled because she is becoming very annoying and inconvenient.
El Viral will live to shriek another day, unless she bursts a blood vessel in her brain.
Sorry, I cannot agree with you about Rennie. He was so mean to Tracy in the beginning. He needs to suffer for a long, long time.
Rosemary Primera
Julia--I think you've got it, lady. Brigitte has to figure in all this. We know Don G and she had a long-standing "understanding."
Cap'n, we know you meant El Alcatrash, not El Tal. El Tal is to be preserved as a shrine to Mariana. Maybe they'll donate it to the Fresno Historical Society. Pedro and Camila need to go live in the orphanage, including Santiago--now we know why his mom hasn't been back to get him or have him sent to Mexico.
Julia--have to tell you, you had me in stitches with your free-range orphans.
I thought Lucas was selling insurance or expensive sorbet on the streets of Fresno (according to a recent commercial).
My list of Tal*Mart items is growing. Need some more.
Anita
Anita, yes yes, I meant Alcatrash. Thank you.
"I thought Lucas was selling insurance or expensive sorbet on the streets of Fresno (according to a recent commercial).", Yep, isn't that funny?
What a great recap! Thank you very much.
I agree Julia. I think Brigitte is Lulu's mommy.
Lulu and Antonio (Lola and Aaron) should go out in a blaze of icky glory, making out too close to a burning El Alcatraz, when they are sucked into the flames of their patrimony!
The Pig should be unable to move, helpless, and roasted in the same fire. Don't his bad meds cause
paralysis?
I know where I will be on Friday!
EJ
However, I would like to see all three of them paralyzed from the neck down with only Joven Pancho and Tracy to care for them 24/7. Only problem is that they might be annoying. But think of it. Joven Pancho, picking boogers and then feeding them grapes, spilling wine from the boda bags all over them, etc...that Tracy can cook up a storm, true, but only JP benefits. The other three have to watch and be satisfied with being fed guacamole and mince meat pie.
Rennie--hmmm. He's defrauded a lot of women, made and lost a lot of money, but never murdered anyone. How about he has to do community service for 3 years at the orphanage? Rita, meanwhile, gets a modeling job for Fredrick's of Fresno.
Anita
Anita
Not that I want to share, but Rita and Hawt Detective would be a beautiful couple. He could head "The Case of the Missing Pants".
No, Elisa, that is not what you wear when visiting an uptight, conservative, wrinkle free senora who just happens to be Dam's mom.
LOVED
Money is the bait to get her to talk. All he has to do is put the money IN and the words will come tumbling OUT, just like a vending machine.
and Sylvia's tee suggestion 'can't believe i watched the whole thing!'
lol!! i didn't...
but enjoying the recaps.. i agree, the Pedro/Elvira sounds like the best scene of the ep...
lets see how this all unravels... i sort of knew Gero did not love Tonio for a reason. IS briget his mom?
Yes, the latest speculation among us die-hard beanie heads is that Brigitte dio luz to Tonio and gave him to Teresa.....see Julia's assessment.
Anita
WV: eyedyin. What happens when we have to see Pigorio on the screen, especially if he's gettin' en flagrante with Doris.
