Caray, Caray!

Thank you for the recap Bill.

We have a lot of moderately important transitions in this episode.

*Santi and and Pati split with extreme prejudice. It's a nice day to start again.

* Kevin likes girls (that was yesterday but close enough!).

* Rebeca takes specific action against Helena instead of just snarking at her.

* Sylvia moves out and Ed is left alone.

* Adriano declares to Eva.

Four of the five are changes in romance status. The wind is shifting; where will it blow?

 

Bill thank you for this awesome recap. I just knew Patti Bebe was gonna do this. Now Santi is stuck for the payment of this wedding and also that expensive apartment he signed the papers on. But as Paula H said they are now even. She lost alot on the wedding her parents paid for.

Loved your sticking a fork in Bastardo's face. He so deserves it and I am really hoping Silvia doesn't go back to him.

Liked your remark about Renato's hair, how Helena is wondering how it flips up like that,lol. He got a pensive look on his face after she left, I wonder what was really on his mind.

So Rebeca now snoops and she called the head of Construction for the Playa Project. I think she is trying to hijack that project from Helena. Pluti is so not gonna be happy about that.
 

Thank you, Bill for the recap.
I also enjoyed the references to Renato's hair. I am still wondering about his agenda.
Well Santiago is learning that hell hath no fury... He will be paying for a long time.
Hmmm, Adriano is love with Eva. This should be too funny, Eva can sell sand at the beach, so let's see what she will have in store for Adriano.
 

I look forward to you recaps and you didn't disappoint. Yes Renato & his hair -- and his thoughtful looks. What's up there?

Once again Eva comes through with just the right words. I loved how Mimi told him/her that he couldn't support Santi as JC so he should suport Santi in Eva's way. And Eva knew exactly what to say -- the same thing that JC already said months ago.

Don't backslide Silvia!!!

Off for a weekend in Philly for my birthday. See y"all next wek.

"Eva tells the doctor that Eugenia has "global transitory amnesia," a condition documented in the telenovela DSM IV as causing confusion between reality and fiction [apparently this is my problem also]."

I loved that statement Ithabill. So funny and clever as was the rest of your recap. I'll be looking forward to seeing how Eva handles Adriano's infatuation. This should be good!
 

Oh and thanks for the good ol' song reference in the title. I've always loved that one and I'll be hearing it in my head all day, thanks to you. And I really mean that!
 

Wonderful recap Ithabill! I felt bad for Santi, but I couldn't help but root Pati on. What a fabulously executed revenge. And, she looked great (in that dress that Santi's money bought).

So, it seems that if Mimi wants to win Adri over, she's going to have to connect with him on a deeper level than the physical. He's taking his sister's advice and trying to avoid his past mistakes-- listening to his little head instead of his big one. Mimi is going to have to work to show that she is a deep person, and that the two of them can connect in more profound ways. Like the way he has connected with Eva.

I guess the only reason for the pohone switch was to allow Adri to speak to Eva instead, when he was calling Mimi to cancel on her, because of his feelings for Eva. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the courage to call Eva up and make the date to see her to speak. But poor Mimi is going to be stood up.
 

I think we all have global transitory amnesia. I wanted to hit Eduardo. If they were setting him up to be forgiven later, they blew it. He should die alone. And if he really is sad then at least he has his pride to keep him company.

Nice to see Silvia continuing her studies. Good for her!

From Wikipedia:

"Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a syndrome in clinical neurology whose key defining characteristic is temporary but almost total disruption of short-term memory with a range of problems accessing older memories. A person in a state of TGA exhibits no other signs of impaired cognitive functioning but recalls only the last few moments of consciousness plus deeply-encoded facts of the individual’s past, such as his or her own name."

Seems to me that this wouldn't affect her knowing whether or not her husband has been cheating on her.
 

Wow. Thanks Vivi. I was poking fun at TGA thinking it was made up. Maybe I do have it.

Paula H caught the Billy Idol reference.

Yes, Judy B, I have a long history with that song (my name is Bill).

Madelaine, I added to the recap that Rebeca called the engineer for the project as part of her campaign against Helena.

Ha! Eva can sell sand at the beach. indeed.

Happy birthday, Guera!
 

Thanks Bill and thanks Tablet Jefa for yesterday also. I'm glad this TN isn't TOO light-'n'-fluffy, but I'm also glad the recaps are keeping it fun!

I am quite enthusiastic about Vivi's suggestion yesterday that Renato could be JC's half-brother. It wouldn't surprise me a bit if Modesto had a second family. Back when he JC was alive, Modesto lectured him about how he needed to settle down and get married because he could always have something on the side. Looks like Modesto was speaking from experience.

As for the CD (yes, I'm still behind, stuck on yesterday), hopefully Eva saved a copy of the CD on her hard disk! (Probably not, but I bet that info is still archived someplace. Maybe Felix saved a copy of his own for blackmailing purposes.)

I haven't actually seen yesterday's episode yet but thanks to this recap, I'm hoping I can just skim through it quickly before tonight's!
 

Thanks for the recap, Bill! You recappers are so funny - I love reading your posts. I laughed at your comment about Rebeca, "apparently, she's not the nicest friend in the world." She has no redeeming qualities, does she?

Speed Racer was having some mean thoughts. He looked much like Patti Bebe did when she was planning her revenge. Hmmm.

I agree with Vivi, Mimi needs to do more than wiggle her assets around Adriano. I had been thinking that her approach didn't match the spirit of this TN.

Bill – Thanks. My favorite line: “I see he's decided to charm her into returning.”

So glad Bastardo was his same old sour self on the phone, or Silvia might’ve caved.

Can’t feel too sorry for Santi. He didn’t really love Pati and probably would’ve cheated on her again anyway. I think he was getting married just cause he thought it was time in his life to do so.

Mimi’s going to be so ticked that the woman that she helped create stole her big crush. Love Eva's "Qué, Qué, What?"

Güera – Happy Birthday!







 

Hey y'all,

It's now 9:11 pm and the show is still going. We're in a commercial break now so I don't know how late it's going to go.

They showed 10 minutes of rerun at the beginning - I thought this was going to be a short night!
 

2 hours of show for you tonight Julie. No Abismo tonight.

Thanks, Vivi!
 

Hi All,

2 hours tonight! I enjoyed it!

Santi should have had a clue when he tried to make extra happen and Pati sidetracked it.

Men don't always think with their brains.

He should have married Angelica long ago. Now he has. Better for him. Maybe not so better for Angelica.

The honeymoon trip on the yacht is so funny...course JC knows how to fix the engine...done this trick before many times.

But...really...this secret is way past due! Somebody has to figure this out. His MOM should have already done so...she herself has acted magnificently and should have figured this out.

Duh!

Oh well, telenovelas have creative licenses.

Way creative.

I DO hope Renato is kin to JC. They get along so well. Hah.

Love the recaps and love the comments.

Peace to all, Tiempe.
