Caray, Caray!

Rosemary.

Thanks for the clever recap. Your replay of the Pig going down was great.

Do we know where ElViral plans to park her suitcase next? I still say she walks like a chicken.

Rosemary Primera
 

R la O - another wonderful recap. Please don't let it be your last.

I hope the Pig and Beltbuckle knock off each other if we can't get them in a jail.

Perhaps Elvira will get busted for something else and crack under pressure and confess.
 

Rosemary Primera and Karen, Thank you both for chiming in.

I am still wondering if Elvira got the money from Pedro. You'd think she'd be talking about it if she had it.

I hope for Armando's sake he doesn't have to live with her anymore. It was only a short month or two ago that they shared a bedroom. How awful for him!

When did Elvira/Julieta start walking like a chicken? She had such good posture in CME. I almost wonder if she wasn't in a car accident or something between shows. Or maybe she is wearing higher heels than she is comfortable with?
 

RlaO-wonderful, snarky recap. Loved the uh, sweating like a pig lol. Too funny. And the three of them having to hold the Pig down. He put up a hell of a fight.

I don't think the Virus has the money. If she did, she would have blown town by now. I never saw Pedro give it to her.

I think Pedro is on to Cameela about that baby and I think Mariana, the name for the baby, is a big clue. I think she is telling him it is his by this. We know how much The Beltbuckle and The Pig didn't like her, later.

Army and Angel make a good team. I can't beleive the Virus actually thinks Manuel would ever leave Maria for her, how delusional. Maybe she will go to the nearest manicomio, jus' sayin' lol.

I think Gabe finally came to realize he does love Sarita enough to marry her. Will we have another wedding?

I am really looking forward to how Cameela will get away from the Beltbuckle, and I do want to know all about the Negrete parentage.
 

I thought Pedro was going to bust out laughing with the baby news since he knows the truth. Or maybe he was laughing at how Camila kept trying to move away from Tonio. And nice to see Aaron acting. I think this is the first time.

After what that padre put Gabe through, I hope he tells the old priest that even though he wants to marry, no way is he getting her knocked up until well after this show is over. Like normal people who don't have priests harassing them.

You know what works great when you're locked in a room? Windows. Like the one right behind Camila the whole time she was banging on the door. They open ya know. Are we sure she should reproduce?

Kelly
 

Actually, I think our KrazyLu might have been the first Pop! goes the Sleazel.

Favorite line: "Really, isn't rubbing someone's face in it the best part of getting engaged?"

No wait, the new favorite line is: "We know from past shows this means he has morning sickness and is pregnant."

No wait, the new favorite line is: "I hear The Incredible Mr. Limpit dolphin sounds as background music." Please don't laugh when I tell you that used to be one of my favorite movies. Don Knotts...sniff.

Oh, and you used bloviating. One of my favorite words, wheeee!

Firslim? Bwahahahaha! I'll bet some people do. Order it that is.

Blue Lass I OWE YOU ONE because you predicted Cameela and Pedro would name their baby Mariana. Granted, Cami only said that to stick it to Antonio, so maybe I owe you two drinks for the satisfaction of it all.

I would like to present an award to Kelly for noticing there was a frigging window behind Cameela and Cami didn't even try to bust it open! I'm pretty sure any of us would have been out of there in a minute.

Thanks Rosemary. Your blue theme is a scream. I can't believe you noticed that. Kudos to you. Please don't stop recapping. You should share your humor with the world...we need it!
 

R la O-Watched this out of the corner of my eye yesterday and was confused as all get out (stopped keeping up around episode 5) but I loved this recap. KrazyLu is definitely the first Pop! Goes the Sleazel. Those boots and silver pants....weird.

I add my voice to the the "keep recapping" choir.
 

Aaahhh, you guys are making me blush. Thanks so much for letting me give this recapping a whirl. I am sad it was so short-lived, but Maybe I'll Come Back in the Fall if a team needs me.

Mads and Kelly - I agree that Pedro caught on to the baby news. I am anxious to watch today to see what he says to Margarito, or to himself, as is often the case.

Kelly - Too funny and too smart about the window! Did you forget to dumb it down before watching? It's more enjoyable that way.

Sylvia - Of course I would never laugh about The Incredible Mr. Limpit! That was a MUST WATCH everytime it came on. That, and our Maybe I'll Come Home in the Spring, and I also liked one called Billie, with Patti Duke as a tomboy who could run faster than some boys (Gasp!). Oh, but Don Knotts... sniff indeed... when his wife put his glasses on him as a fish. Oh! I can't talk about it!

YAY BLUE! Yes, she was our smartypants who suggested Camila would want to name the baby Mariana. Let's hope they do Meses Despues, so we can see just who owes who a drink.

R la O
 

OUTSTANDING RECAP, R! (I am shouting up from the bottom of my all-day software meeting.) YOU ROCK THE LIMPID POOL!
 

And yes, Lu was the very first poppin' sleaze! It was my debut recap!
 

Thanks, Sara! You were one of the smart ones who bailed. There were a few of us who just kept sinking in the quicksand of El Talisman and found we couldn't get out.

I am looking forward to dipping more frequently into the Cenote de Amismo de Pasion.

Hey, I am almost done with Ramona la Chinche (finally!). Have you found any comparable children's books? That is about my speed for now.

R la O
 

THANK YOU, BLUE! (Shouting right back at cha!) Thanks for talking me in to giving recapping a try.

Well, then in that case, my Pop! remark was an homage to Blue who will be AWOL for the gran final.

Thanks for checking in whenever you can tear yourself away from the software seminar.
 

Dang, I know it is ABISMO.
 

Ahh, I love the Incredible Mr. Limpit. I have the movie and watched it yesterday because of your remark lol.

RlaO- loved your reference to the Sound of Music and the curtains lol. Maybe Venevision used excess material from the set for the dress lol.
 

Rosemary la O, thanks for this vivid blue recap. I love your description of my favorite scene:

"He also talks to her about changing her attitude, and living in the real world..."

and he seemed deadly serious. Wow! Wonder why he hasn't tried this sooner? Well OK then... problem solved.

Sorry, I'm finding the newlyweds (M&M) painfully cloying. We've got 3 episodes left and they're agonizing over whether to cancel one patient in order to spend happy time together? And Mariana's one wish in life was to see the two of them reunited? Gack!

Carlos
 

And then voila! The patient cancels! Oh joy! Yep, they are newlyweds.
 

R la O-Maybe the show was bad, but I suspect I missed some fantastic snark.

As for books-I've got Ramona empieza el curso in my stack and I think some of the Ralph the mouse books are in Spanish.

I read a Junie B JOnes in Spanish. It was pretty good and has the advantage of being quite short, but I think Cleary is better. ;-)
 

Thank you, Rosemary (la Otra)! You do great work.

Why are we wasting time spinning our wheels on Sarita and Gabe's coerced engagement and M&M's wedded bliss when we have SO MUCH drama we could be enjoying? I just don't understand.

At least our main crew seems to have kicked into gear. I thought Antonio was in fine form in this episode (not that his form is ever not fine, but the facial acting was pretty good yesterday, too). After he took down the Pig, he had a very brief moment in which one could see "hurt child" and "regret that this is what his life has come to" in his face along with the anger and disgust. I think AD realized this is almost over and he can get a better job soon, so he should remind people he can act.

Camila was great, too (aside from being too stupid to use the window, and she should know to HIDE her phone by now). It was really funny when she kept trying to casually lean away from Antonio and get his hand off her, and he kept pawing her and pulling her back. Pedro found it really amusing, too.

So our two shrinks only had one patient to cancel so that they can enjoy a honeymoon? Wow, it's great that no one in Fresno needs psychiatric help.

Thanks, Julia. Of all the plot lines, Sarita and Gabe is the most boring. Show us what happened to Sow #1, reveal the true family tree, make an arrest, Elvira anything. And they give us screechy Santiago acting as romance counselor to Gabe? Give me a break!

Aaron is good at split second flashes of vulnerability. I love that about him. As bad as he is, we get it. I, for one, feel it.

That being said, he is an adult now and should be capable of better choices.
 

Even Pedro/RN was acting with his face parts yesterday.

I still love Angel the best. Is there any way he could end up owning Alcatrash? Maybe with Flor.
 

RLO--I had to miss this episode (gaack). The recap was an *excellent* substitute.

Elvira probably has the money, that's why she's leaving. She's smart enough to know that if she tells the boys, they will tell M&M and eventually it will get back to Camila--which it probably will anyway. She's got her suitcase and is headed for the nearest Hilton to be pampered and coddled and fed until she decides what to do next.

Whaaa? She thinks Manuel is going to leave Maria for her? It's a little sad if she's really beginning to believe herself.

How many Talismaniacs really believe Antonio knew he wasn't the Pig's son? I'm wondering if he didn't say that to cover up the hurt he felt and to slam the Pig a little. Who would he have heard it from?

Since Cam & Pedro are all ready married and so are M&M, Margarito doesn't have a novia, Santiago is too young, as are the F-girls, the only bodas in the offing are Geno & Tomas, Sarita & Gabe, Panchito & Tracy. My bet is on Sarita & Gabe being the requisite boda at the end.

I wish I had seen the two guys wrasslin the Pig down.

Doesn't Domitilla work for the El Tal folks? I think Tracy and Alberta are the only ones taking care of Alca.

RLO, I agree with everybody, you MUST keep recapping. Forget Abismo. Try your hand at Refugio.
Anita
 

You are right, Anita, it was Alberta.

I think Antonio knew he wasn't the Pig's son as his immediate reply was "I've always known you weren't my father, and that you were too proud to admit your wife had been with another."

So if Lu is really Pig's and Brigette's, she could be his new Chula.

Give up on Abismo? Before the shirtless arm3 wrestle? Estas loco?
 

SO WHO IS ANTONIO'S FATHER?! Darth Vader? Come on, we've got to find out!
 

Julia, Angel is a love. Way too good for Flor. Do you think Fabi will make an appearance el viernes?
 

Flor just needs to grow up and get away from her toxic family. I could see them being happy together 10 years después.
 

Maybe Valentin? And Antonio will be so remorseful when he accidentally shoots him. It would be funny if it was Manuel or Rennie.
 

I suggested Valentin as BeltBuckle's daddy yesterday, and I still think that could be right. They have a strong resemblance (although that could be giving the casting people too much credit, and Brigitte and Lucrazy also have a strong physical resemblance), Val has stuck around the ranch even though it would have been in his interest to skip town long ago, and Tonio is always trashing people who don't come from snooty rich parentage, so it would be telenovela justice for his biodad to be a ranch hand.
 

They only have 3 more days to wrap it up! Maybe that with Gabe and Belly Dancer yesterday was to get it out of the way so we can.focus on the good stuff. I wonder if that was Rennie and Rita's kiss off yesterday?
 

Julia, I really like the idea of Val being Tony's dad. And I've always wondered why Val has never left because they always treat him like crap. Your theory would explain a lot.
 

I like Val as Tony's Dad, too. Here's hoping.
