Amores Verdaderos #102 Thu 4/4/13 Pants on Fire, or You're Already Dead, BoyToyRobRoy


* Lo refrito: Polita freaks out in the bar, the Angel confesses his neverending love to Zombictoria.

* Lo nuevo: the nurse politely kicks Arriaga out of the hospital room because the patient needs to rest. He leans over Vicky for the last time and whispers that even though his feelings are forbidden, he can’t stop loving her. The crying Angel slowly leaves the room, and whoa, suddenly Ms. Vicky opens her eyes and we hear her inner thoughts: I love you too.


* Lili tries to tell Poli that she never told Frankie about her feelings, but Polita, the little anger bag is so indignant at Lili for “betraying their friendship” that she leaves the club with a big huff. Lili runs after her, Polita, Polita, please, listen to me, Polita, wait for me… but suddenly she bumps into a young boy… Oh God, he’s BoyToyRobRoy! Roy apologizes, but then he doesn’t want to let her go because he’s completely enchanted by her beauty. Seriously, Preciosa (precious), you’re the prettiest woman in the entire club! A woman… Lili likes that word.


* Arriaga is still agonizing at the hospital corridor. Cristina shows up behind him and asks him about Ms. Vicky. She’s better. Then why does he act like that? I feel guilty, says the Angel. He should’ve been with her. Cristina, who feels terrible for seeing him that sad and desperate, tells him it wasn’t his fault, and she tries to convince him to go home and have some rest. No, he isn’t going anywhere. Cris is tired with arguing with him (I don’t recognize you anymore!), so she decides to leave. In the waiting room they meet Guzmán and Adriana, who asks about Liliana’s birthday. Mother Goose gets irritated (as always), and tells her to stay away from Lili. Adri apologizes again. When they are out of the hearing range, José Ángel reproaches Cris for being rude to Adriana, and Cris reproaches him for only caring about Ms. Victoria’s well being.


* In the bar Roy invites Lili for a glass of champagne. At first she doesn’t want to drink because she’s already had a cocktail, but he manages to convince her. She confesses that she’s feeling a little bit down because she loves somebody who isn’t interested in her. Oh come on, says Roy, that guy must be blind or an idiot! However, his surprise couldn’t be bigger when he finds out that this sweet young girl doesn’t have the slightest idea that he’s a huge star. She’s afraid that now he thinks she’s a stupid, boring girl, but on the contrary, he says she’s a gorgeous woman. Liliana is grateful for his words, which are the best present he could ever give her. No, says the BoyToy. He has a better one… and he kisses her.

* In the hospital Vicky remembers back to the gunshot: Tomasina in the car, the masked man, the gun at her waist… and then she thinks about Arriaga’s sweet confession. A little, tired, coy smile shows up on her face.
* Adri and Angel are waiting outside. Aníbal, the Furminator, Neta, Tomasina and Dances join them. Adri is surprised at seeing her sick father there, to which the Don grabs her hand and answers that her worrying is the best medicine he can get. Adriana’s so embarrassed at the situation that she quickly hugs Nikki. The nurse shows up and tells them that Victoria woke up. Everyone is happy and relieved. She says Vicky wants to see her daughter. Nelson is offended a little bit.


* Kendho is standing in front of her mirror, and while she’s enjoying the view, she tells Mia that the Balvanera fortune will be hers… now that Victoria is dead and Adriana is fighting with Aníbal.

* In a beautiful and lovely scene the frightened Nikki tells her Mama how much she loves her. Forgive me, Mom, and don’t leave, please, don’t leave me. Vicky tells her that she adores her, too. But, please, tell her what happened to Tomasina. Did the kidnappers release her? Nikki doesn’t understand what she’s talking about, and when Victoria starts coughing, the doctor sends Neta out of the room.


* In the club Little Orchid enthusiastically talks about her future plans: she’ll study, she’ll do important things, and she wants to be more independent and less childlike. And do you want to have more fun, too, asks the BoyToy. Yes, she wants that, too. Great. The two kids leave the bar together.

* Neta tells Tomasina about the kidnapping. Tomi is shocked: Qué? Kidnapped? Me? Seriously?

* At the Balvaneras’s kitchen Polita cries a river to poor Jean Marie, who just can’t calm her down. And how could you leave Liliana alone in a club? Polita hopes that traitor has the worst birthday ever.


* Actually, Lili is having a quite interesting birthday with Roy: they are making out in his car while he keeps saying that oh, Preciosa, you’re driving me crazy, you’re gorgeous, you’re awesome! Liliana likes his smooth worlds and sweet kisses, but when he starts to unzip her dress, she finally realizes that this was a very bad idea. She jumps out of the car like crazy and runs away, leaving the puzzled superstar alpha male behind.


* We’re back in the hospital, where Tomi fells horrible because Victoria almost died because of her. Vicky says that no, it was her fault, she should’ve called one of the (three dozen) bodyguards who work for the Balvaneras. Anyway, Victoria tells Tomasina, as one Arriaga fangirl to another, that Angel confessed he loved her! They’re over the moon. Tomasina wants Vicky to give herself a chance with José Ángel.


* Kendrat calls Nikki to ask about her beloved mother. (Aka: is she dead already?) When Neta tells her that Victoria survived the operation, she tries her best to hide her annoyance. And what about Roy? He surely was with her all the time. No, he wasn’t because the poor boy had to practice all day. And anyway, he can’t stay up late. *Viewerville: massive eyeroll* But Guzmancito was at her side all day. Kendra warns Okay that she has to be careful with that golddigger Guzmán, especially now that she’s in a vulnerable state. He’s and opportunist, don’t let him fool you! This is the moment when Frankie knocks on the door and enters the room.


* In the meantime Kendra tells her little baby that she hopes stupidity isn’t genetical and she won’t be as idiot as her sister. (LOL!) The doorbell rings. Kendho hopes that Nelson came to visit her, and of course, he must be sad because he’s about to become a widower, but she’ll comfort him… She opens the door, and oh, sh*t. It’s Salsero. Hi Puchis, did you miss me? Dances came to lay down the law: first of all, don’t call him Puchis again, and second, he knows it was Kendra who tried to murder Ms. Victoria. He warns her to back off. Kendra informs him about the baby and tells them to keep his mouth shut… unless he wants Beatriz to find out about his crimes.

* Frankie confesses to Nikki that he couldn’t sleep and he wanted to see her... because he’s worried about her. Neta appreciates his words and at first she flashes a nice smile, but then she remembers back what Kendra told her… So as usual, she breaks the spell and asks Guzmán about his “girlfriend”. Is she rich? Frankie gets angry and he answers that yes, she’s rich, and her father is richer than the Balvaneras! If Nikki ever needs money, just let him know, okay?

* At the Arriagas Lili tells Cristina the tale of her disastrous birthday: her fight with Polita, the cute guy she met, the champagne, the kisses, the car… everything. Kudos to Cris for not freaking out much.

* In the hospital Arriaga asks Tomasina about her newest friend. Doesn’t she find this situation strange? He could be one of the men who attacked Victoria! Tomasina says that Bonaparte is a decent guy, he surely doesn’t have anything to do with the murder attempt. José Ángel is still ridden with guilt and he swears that from now he won’t leave Victoria’s side for a second. He’ll always be with her. *Viewerville: yes, because that’s exactly what your family and your marriage need*

 * Liliana confesses to her mother that she’s sick and tired with being a little girl. She just wanted to feel like a woman. Cris says that Lili doesn’t need to rush into a stranger’s arms: she should wait for the right man who marries her, and please, don’t make love when you aren’t in love. Especially not with a stranger who could give you an STD. Cristina’s face lights up when she remembers back her first time with José Ángel… the love of her life.


* Finally, it’s morning. Everyone and their mother is in the hospital, waiting for the news. The doctor joins the Balvaneras and informs them that Victoria is getting better and she’s allowed to see her family. Everyone is happy and they head to the hospital room… except for Furminator who tells Arriaga that he isn’t part of the family, he’s just an employee, therefore he can’t visit Victoria, period. He’s such a nice fellow, isn’t he. The Angel stays silent but he looks very angry. Guzmán tries to cheer him up, take it easy, brother, tranquilo, tranquilo… But Arriaga confesses that he’s fed up with Nelson antics, and the next time he insults him he’ll break his nose.

Uhh-ohh, boy, her dad is a ranchero aikidoka and he is huge.
 

Holy crap. Whaaaa????? I did not watch the episode last night. Oh man! Looks like must see TV and I pooped out and went to bed. Drat. Can't wait to read the recap.
 

Aribeth: Excellent screen shots and perfect title. I cannot wait to read the recap - especially for your gist of the conversation between JA and Cris.

I am loving the chemistry and spiritual and emotional chemistry between JA and Vicky but I am. Apologies to Cris.

Damn it Carlos. Your "Why am I worried that Roy is going to wander into that very club on this very night?" posted yesterday was right on target. Could Roy be any more cringeworthy?? Ack.

Sara, yes, you must see the episode.

Diana
 

I am so looking forward to this Aribeth. A fire broke out in my building just after the show started, and when the firemen let us back inside and I turned the tv back on, there was Lili in a car with Roy, about to do the deed!!! I felt I had walked into some bizarro universe. I really couldn't pay much attention to the episode after that, but kept thinking, how the heck did THAT happen?! I did hit record before I ran out of my condo, so I'll watch this weekend. But I'm sure your take on things will be way more amusing.
 

Vivi: I hope you are all right and no one in your building was hurt in the fire? How terrible.

I can imagine your shock and awe upon tuning in to see the least suited people on the planet together with Lili on the verge of making the biggest mistake of her life. I can only surmise Roy's smarmy charm, lopsided grin and sweet nothings (literally) does work on naïve young women. Sigh.

Diana
 

Diana- The fire was caught early and was in the buidling's trash shoot, so it never got to anyone's units. Other than the lingering smell of smoke, all is well. Thanks for the concern amiga.
 

Aribeth:

I can't wait to read your take on this epi.

I was shocked, I tell you shocked by what I saw with Lili and ugh, Roller boy last night. Little Orchid about to be deflowered by the worst possible person, in a car, no less! I blame it on the alcohol! How many drinks/champagne sips did she have? I know she had the one big drink with Polita, and then various glasses of champagne. I hope she stopped him. Yew!

I like how Cris actually talked, albeight, thru gritted teeth to the Angel, without screaming in the hospital waiting room. I feel bad for both the Angel and Cris. Ms Vikki and the Angel though, sigh. I also liked the Angel's reaction when the Doctor came out, notice Nelson said nothing. What an A$$hat FF is.

Vivi:

I am so glad you are ok, and everyone in your building is too. What a thing to happen.
 

Aribeth - Such a scary photo to start your recap. :D

Vivi: So glad the fire didn't spread and you and everyone else could go back to your units safe and sound.

Lili wants to be seen as a woman, not a little girl. So Roy calling her a "mujer" at the start triggered her foolishness.

Hated how Cris was with Adriana in the hospital, but loved how she was with Lili when the silly girl told her what happened at the club. Lili seems to be able to talk with her mom about anything (except Adriana!). Hope that doesn't change.
 

Is anyone just as disgusted as I am by Liliana and Roy? At least of them getting involved right now. Eh!

I'll wait until the recap to comment. Looking forward to your recap Aribeth.

Team Nikki/Guzmancito
 

Oh Vivi, I was just reading the comments and came to yours.
I'm glad your ok and no one was hurt.

Team Nikki/Guzmancito
 

Just want to confirm that Lili did indeed stop Roy before it was too late.
 

Well, the evening turned out a lot better than I was afraid that it would. What a crappy friend Polita turned out to be. Good for Jean Marie in chastising her for leaving Ratiana on her own.

It should be fun when Roy turns up in the kitchen and runs into Lili again.Of course he might not even remember her.

Carlos
 

...but she'll remember him, Carlos.

Aribeth--we await with baited breath for the full story.

Carlos is our new Opalina--he can see into the next episode with keen visionary abilities. Do we have a Carlos/Opalina table on the Patio? Man, I want to know how this Cris-Arriaga-Miss Vikki thing works out asap. I'm having a houseful of company all next week and my DVR doesn't work. Aaack.

Vivi--If you had missed the attempted congress in the car--all you had to do was go back to the run up of the Yago-Natalia (AB) deflowering and you would have had the whole picture.

I was upset by Lili's behavior--but I'll give her this, she was so needy after Polita's rejection of friendship, her dad's odd reaction to Vikki's shooting, her birthday fracaso (no phone call or 'date' from Guzmi), meeting Adriana in the chapel and sharing her exact birthday with a missing child. At least she sobered up and got away in time.

I'm surprised at Roy, too. He must have a hidden desire to strut his stuff and conquer naive senoritas. After all, he can buy girls who speak perfectly awful Spanish for practically nothing and have two at time, for heaven's sakes.

Niecie & Mads--I agree, it was the mujer part...and the alcohol that made Lili extra vulnerable. Otherwise, she would have resisted anyone who might have approached her that she didn't know or hadn't been introduced to--and even then that's no guarantee. (Good consejo about STD, mama-Cris).

Victoria in TX--I typed in disgusted, but changed it to upset--but I can divide it up nicely, disgusted with Roy and upset with Liliana.

However, last night I really concentrated on Arriaga and Miss Vikki. We were thrown a red herring in the avances the night before. When will I ever learn. She opened her eyes after he left, but she *had* heard him. I guess it would have been awkward for her to open her eyes and prevented by convention from answering him likewise. We have to leave that for another time. Carlos? Any ideas when?






 

Gringo--I think you echoed our sentiments perfectly.
 

Gringo:

You did say it perfectly : ) He has definitely got to LARGATE!

Niece:

With you too about how Cris treated Adriana, so mean. Cris is like a mad Mama Bear when it comes to her family. I wish, for just a moment, that Cris would understand how Adri feels. I think Cris would back off then. I am so glad Lili stopped him ole Roy.

NovelaMaven:

So true, Lili will remember him. Roy the Roller tends to "forget" his various women.

Carlos:

I am so with you about Polita. What a crappy friend she is indeed. I can't believe she left poor little Orchid, who is indeed from the country as Jean Marie said, all alone at that club. Jean Marie is the voice of reason, too bad Polita isn't listening.
 

Vivi: Just got to check in again - glad everyone is OK.

Gringo: Perfect description of Roy (still chuckling).

Anita: "Carlos is our new Opalina--he can see into the next episode with keen visionary abilities." Excellent.

Diana
 

Am soooo looking forward to the recap, Aribeth!

Roy the Boy, you are yuk. Just yuk. How vain you are. "Do you know who I am?" It doesn't occur to him that she wouldn't. He's ROY THE BOY! Yuck!

I'm so glad Lili came to her senses in time. I was proud of Chris for not flipping out at what Lili told her, but instead giving her the same advice any protective mama would have given. I hope Lili will listen (I think she will).

Our Poor Little Gorilla and Nikki still can't seem to communicate. So close and yet so far. . . I think (as I'm sure the rest of you have noticed) that they're setting up Adriana to look like Guzman's novia in Nikki's eyes. That was helped along by Guzman's sarcastic talk about how his novia has a really rich father!

Must see TV tonight. I hope they don't give us too much of a cliffhanger--I hate weekend cliffhangers!
 

I'd love to take a bow, but let's face it, I don't think that even Nikki believed Roy when he said he was going to practice and we all know that there is only one night club in Mexico City...

I'm just glad that Ratiana escaped with her little orchid more or less intact. Otherwise we'd be needing something way stronger than Baileys on The Patio tonight.

Carlos
 

Roy the 'toy boy' is quite disgusting. But will Nikki still want to marry him? I find that difficult to imagine but we do have a lot of episodes to go. Roy will probably fast talk his way to her money since he has no other means of supporting his tennis tournaments.
As for Kendra, whose child is she carrying? Why doesn't she want to take a DNA test? Perhaps the baby is not Nelson's! And for someone who is pregnant, she sure was hoping all over the rusted cars getting away from the police. Can you imagine what kind of mother she would be?

 

Hola, part one is up. Please excuse me, it's been a busy day. Part two will be even shorter.

Is it just me, or Eiza was extremely beautiful in this episode?

I loved the Cris-Angel scenes. They are so sad, but well played and directed. (Dios mío, I'm starting to warm up towards the director.)

Diana, I'm glad you're back. Best wishes to your brother Marc.
 

Is the drinking age 18 in Mexico?
 

Salsero needs to stop confronting Kendra about what he knows about her. He was sure she was involved in the attack on Victoria and she didn't deny it, but also threatened to tell on his past antics if he told. He should do something anonymously to focus the police attention on Kendra and Espanto without them (Kendra/Espanto) knowing it was him. A supposedly smart security chief must have ways and connections he can use.
 

Uhh. Lo siento, it's midnight here, the second part will be up tomorrow.
 

Sleep well amiga; we can wait for one of your masterpieces!
 

Aribeth - Fine part 1. ITA the anguish between JA and Cris was well played.
 

Aribeth thank you. I have a dejavu feeling. I have already expressed my fear the last episode when I mentioned that I saw a pr pix of Ratiana and Roytoyboy and about it I said that in as much as I am team Nikki and Guzmancito, I wouldn't want Ratiana to have Roytoyboy as his partner and I even said "Yuck" Now it's coming true!!!!yuck and double yuck.
Please, introduce her to the tennis instructor or even Zambrano, the other gguardiaespalda.
BTW, I love the scene of Nikki and her mom.
 

Gosh I'm feeling so much sympathy for Cristina, pobre.

Gringo- Lol

Aribeth- I agree Nikki did look beautiful in a kind of natural way. Not too much makeup and wearing all black.

Team Nikki/Guzmancito
 

Part two is up.
 

Aribeth - Thank you for the recap and the screen caps. Both are fantastic!

I'm so glad Lili heard me screaming "Run, Lili, Ruuunnnnn!!!!" and she got out of that car.

Cristina's calm and even her smiling, tranquil personality just are too weird, for a woman who has realized her marriage is over. This being the same woman who threw such rages of jealousy. If I had realized my marriage was in ext4reme jeopardy, I think I would have been more subdued, even if I wanted to cover it up for my child's sake. Her calm and sociability weren't forced. Too strange.
 

Aribeth:

Wonderful, marvelous recap. So enjoyed the whole recap and especially those screencaps.

Ay yi yi. I was so worried about our little Orchid and all the alcohol she had consumed but YAY, she didn't give in to boytoyRoy. I can't stand that guy. He is just like the FF and then some. So agree with what Doris said.

Loved the dynamic between the Angel and Ms Vikki. Too bad she opened her eyes after he left the room, and the FF, I wish the Angel had punched his lights out.

Kendho is going round the bend. I think she is truly manicomio worthy, jus' sayin'. If she keeps up this murder everyone in her way, there will be no one left!

I have an issue with Polita as I said earlier. What is wrong with her? She so knows that Nikki is all into Guzmi so I guess if her "employer" is into him that's ok, but not someone who is close to her. Polita also knows that Guzmi is so NOT into her, and besides little Orchid also told her that Guzmi isn't into her also. Polita needs to get a grip!
 

This is wonderful, Aribeth! Absolutely worth the wait ... one fangirl to another. :)

Mads
I feel for Polita. The writers used her as a plot device to place Lili in that club, alone and vulnerable, ripe for the Rollero. I'm sure she'll see the error of her ways in a few episodes and we can all make nice again. After all, we have enough REAL villains to worry about.
----
I had forgotten how Kendra was behind Nikki's about-face re Frankie. Her booster dose of poison was a good reminder. Kendra is doing this because she sees Frankie as the enemy, right? As someone who has her number?
-----
I would SO love to see the Furry pig with a broken snout! But I'm afraid the Big Guy is going to need to hold back, at least for a little while longer.


 

Aribeth - Terrific part 2. Great pics.
 

Aribeth- Thanks for Part 2. It was fabulous. I still need to watch the episode, but now feel as if I had.
 

Aribeth: Amazing as always but your screen shots hit the stratosphere. The ones of Cris and JA were simply pricless. Such emotions - anger, guilt, hurt, confusion.

"the little anger bag" and "Cris is tired with arguing with him (I don’t recognize you anymore!)" were among my favorites.

So glad Lili came to her senses and can't wait until she encounters Roy and Nikki.

The love between JA and Vicky is deepening as is the chasm between JA and Cris. Huge sigh.

Thank you Aribeth! This was spectacular.

Diana
