Amores Verdaderos #134 Mon 5/20/13 Mother daughter reunion, Anyballs sets rules on Nil-Brains, Nil-Brains drops KenDrat as a bad apple, Angel wins round no. ?? on Nil-Brains

Frankie at airport ticket desk, mopes about losing Nikki 'para siempre'...

Vicky at her study, Angel comes in, her bags are ready. She will have Salsero take her to airport. Vicky says we will say goodbye here. Angel asks her to take care, won't be there to do it himself. Vicky says will miss you so much, will need you to feel safe. He says a part of his heart will be with her, she says ditto. They can barely look in each other's eyes. He kisses her hands and leaves... after he gets to hallway he lets go his tears and his smirks of pain. She stays crying her heart out inside, asking herself 'what am I going to do without you?'

Anyballs gets the DNA results. He barely gets to read that she is a true Balvanera when who comes toward him, but Lilli herself! he seems to have a bit of a stroke and she runs to care for him. (you must have the belly empty like my grandma says). She tells him she will try to convince her grandma to come live with her at the city. Anyballs says good idea, she should be near you. Lilli wonders if the sparks of Anyballs feelings for Cande are still there. Anyballs says 'as always, the love destiny of a man is in the hands of a woman'. He tells her she should take some gardening (orticultura) classes, she worries about the money, he offers to pay for it on her mother's memory. She was so nice. Lilli thanks him for his support. My dad is also studying online to complete his studies of agronomy. He says her dad has many 'sides'. Lilli says his best is fatherhood.

Angel and Frankie on phone, Angel sorry Frankie's trip did not turn out as he wanted. Frankie says it hurts bad, but now will set his sights on finalizing his divorce from Ambar. Angel says good idea. Frankie says 'my dad wanted me to fight for the woman i love, even gave me the tickets, all for nothing'.


Felipe at a restaurant with Paula, trying again to get her to come back with him now that she is not with Anyballs any longer. She seems to now be using as excuse that it would not be fair to him if she can't love him as before. He says he has waited 20 yrs to get her back. He is not interested in any other woman than her. But don't say anymore. He knows she is saying no.

At his tournament game, Roy is not doing so well, but when his trainer is nagging at him to keep the love and sport separate, Roy says dont worry, Nikki and I have not had 'any' (there it is!!), that in intimacy, they are just best friends, but for everyone else they are the happiest couple.

At hospital, Stevie is watching over Odiosa, JM comes in, tries to inject some optimism on Stevie that she will come through. JM brought Stevie some food, Odiosa starts grouling, which turns into desperate nonesense when Kendrat comes in the room. KenDrat tells them that she has been so worried about Odiosa and that Odiosa's reaction to seeing her is that Odiosa is so used to people seeing her all made up that she feels really ashamed when someone sees her as she is now. Stevie and JM worried by Odiosa's reaction.

Playing the game RoyFoyTOy falls down, even the game TV narrators don't believe he is truly injured, but say he is using that tactic to get some breathing time. But he will lose the game if he loses the point.

Anyballs tells ANtonio that he will give Lilli her place in the house without telling anyone the truth. He does not want to expose Lilli to be despised by everyone. Antonio says he does not think Nikki will take the news easily that she is not ANyballs' only 'princesa'.

At hotel, Nikki is writing another letter for Frankie... she knows he went on trip with Ratiana, she is depressed. Last night she and Roy toasted to their loneliness, they fell asleep as friends, he is the brother i never had, but i still don't get over the sadness of thinking of you having a great time with the stinky ranch-girl of your girlfriend. How sad (mala onda) that i learned the truth so late. It would have been so different if KenDrat had not split us with her lies. My mother was so right in telling me I would regret having rejected you. Each moment my sorrow grows and each minute the hole you left in me 'archi-'grows.

At offices, Bea rejects Dances pretty roughly. He asks her if she thought about it more. She says yeah, and we need to keep distances. He does not get it, he is faithful and respectful. Do you want to go back to the life you had with your husband? Of course not! That is a hell i don't plan to live again. But you and I can't be together. For the sake of my son. Stay away from me please. You know my son is most important in my life, and if i have to stay away from you to be with him, so it will be. He says ok, but keep in mind i am a man of my word. I promised your brother and you that i will find your son, and i will do that. And if you want me to stay away from you, even if it hurts bad, I will do that. She thanks him. He leaves. She cries, Gilda consoles her. But she does not agree with Bea's decision, you and Dances are crazy about each other. Bea says you are right, but it is impossible. (she shows result to Gilda) I am expecting Leo's kid. If Dances finds out it was due to a rape, he will find Leo and take him through a meat grinder.

Nil-Brains finds Angel in Vicky's study using her laptop and goes irate (again!) about Angel invading private space. Angel explains she let him use her laptop while she is on her trip. Nil-Brains says that is something you made up. (Angel yells he is no liar) Sure you are! Do you think it was proper that you put your sights on my wife? At least now she has a lover, and that is not you! (Angel loses it yelling for him not to talk about 'la senora' that way! Respect her!) Maybe it is her old lover, Carlos! (Angel suggests he shut up already) Have some dignity! Leave this house! Before the ho of my wife comes back to crawl on the floor for... (Angel turns his back on Nil-Brains shouting he won't take any more insults... Nil-Brains turns him around and punches him on stomach, another on jaw, Angel falls to floor where Nil-Brains gets in a final kick...)

Back to hotel, Nikki is alone, door knock, its her SUPER MAMI!!!, As soon as she opens door she falls in Vicky's arms and cries hard. Vicky gets alarmed at this. Tells Nikki she is on her way to Argentina and decided to stop by and get with Nikki to find out how it is going for her. Nikki says it is going ok, marriage is harder than she thought. But she is getting used to Roy gradually. They get along. Vicky can't believe KenDrat behaved so bad with her, splitting her from the man she loved. Nikki gets whinny saying Frankie got over her so quick, my 'ex-gorila' went and started dating stinky Ratiana. My Guzman changed me for her. But I don't care (Neta que cero me importa). As an actor, he did great. After saying i was the love of his life, he turned out the biggest liar. Vicky says she hears her and feels Nikki is talking about someone else. Better stop thinking about that and try to enjoy your marriage. Nikki says you are right. Vicky says think of what you have and not on what you left behind. Nikki does not want to dissappoint Anyballs. Vicky says don't do it for others, we are your family and we love you no matter what. Whatever you decide, you can be sure we all will support it.

Back to the violence in the studio, somehow Angel has turned things around and has Nil-Brains on floor face down and has a grip on his hand behind his back. Nil-Brains yelling 'let me go! lets fight like men! (LOL!!)', threatens he will accuse him of attempted murder (LOL!!!!). Angel says 'i warned you that each time you insulted Ms Victoria, you would get what you deserved!' Nil-Brains brags that he is still Vicky's legal husband. Angel says dont worry, the Senora already requested for that to change very soon. Nil-Brains rants that he will never give Vicky the divorce! Angel says . I am here to protect Senora Vicky, even from you! Nil-Brains finally leaves, groaning to Angel that 'you will never hurt me again in your life!'.

At B kitchen, JM, Toma and Polita, JM says ' Poor Madame Longoria, she is half paralized'. Toma replies ' what you plant is what you harvest, she wasn't a good person'. Here comes angry Nil-Brains, insulting Toma for just asking if he will eat now. Dances follows him to the main study, tells him Odette is in hospital, and shows him a video someone took of the argument between her and KenDrat about Stevie's sexual preferences. Nil-Brains (always thinking of himself) says it is a shameful situation. Dances adds that while the scandal is out, better not allowing anyone to relate him to KenDrat. Nil-Brains gets cell phone call from Gilda, he cancels his meeting for the afternoon, too busy. Nil-Brain leaves, Dances says 'this move will kick you right in the ass, little foxy lady'.

Anyballs visits Odiosa at hospital, getting some payback for the visit she gave him at the B house that caused him his crisis. He says 'Look at you, the almighty Odette Longoria, the one everyone feared, the one who stepped on anyone, now you have become a sad despicable rag. Very few people survive a stroke, and those who do are affected/crippled permanently (well, the odds of that depend on how fast they get treatment). Sand ending for the queen of evil. The ending you deserved. Even when you were healthy, your agency could never compete with mine. Now you all will get ruined. I promise that if you make it out of here, I will send you the prettiest and best wheelchair... (leaves laughing, while she is desperate growling)

At dining room, another interesting family dinner... Nil-Brains tries to get up with a sarcastic farewell, but not before Anyballs rudely tells him that he wants their relationship from here on out to be strictly business, at the agency he should work your butt off, but at the house 'don't play the role of model son in law and don't annoy us with your ironies'. Nil-Brains gets up to leave and Angel comes to tell Adriana that everything is ready. Nil-Brains takes the opportunity to continue his insults, now suggesting that Angel has taken on Adri as lover at the absence of Vicky. Anyballs stands up and tells him to shut up. Nil-Brains leaves after having spit his 'truth'-venom. Adri tells Anyballs she will go see a movie by a famous director, 'Joan Constantine'. Ever heard of him? Anyballs says no and complains she leaves him to eat alone. She says not alone, Tomasina is here. Adri and Angel leave, Anyballs stays thinking.

Back to Miami hotel, Nikki keeps whinning about KenDrat's lies... Vicky thought bubbles 'if you only knew what she did to me as well'. Vicky asks Nikki to forget that woman who hurt you so bad, take care of your health. Nikki says you are right. Vicky says at Miami Univ there is a Center for treatment of eating disorders. Suggests Nikki get more info on it. RoyToy comes. Is fairly courteous with Vicky, tells them he lost his match and got elliminated so they need to go to Toronto tomorrow. He tells Nikki to do what she wants, can go with your mom if you want. Nikki prefers to stay with him. He tells Vicky he could not have found a better wife. He leaves to take a shower. Vicky insists in Nikki finding a specialized center for treating her condition. Nikki promises her she will get treatment. 'tu fresh y yo cool'. (you stay fresh and i'll stay cool)

Nil-Brains visits KenDrat, tells her Anyballs is watching over his shoulder. She feeds his ego saying she is sure he will show Anyballs and everyone that he is even better at the business than Vicky herself. But he pays her by nagging at her about her incident with Odiosa. She will get blamed for Odiosa's paralysis. Venting opinions about other's sexual preferences in public is not politically correct. With all this scandal it is not convenient that i be seen with you, until the smoke clears on the incident. KenDrat nags that now she has no job and she is expecting his daughter. He offers to send her a monthly check with Dances... She nags again, but he yells at her that he won't see her again until the waters return to their place. He leaves. KenDrat grimes through teeth, 'don't think you will get rid of us (her and baby) so easily. you will marry me or i will no longer be KenDrat Ferreti (wasn't your name Macaria?)'

Elsewhere, Frankie and Ambar are in agreement to get a divorce on mutual agreement to speed things up. She notices he is deflated, she offers to pay a listening ear. He tells her about working for the B's, and breaking the no. 1 rule of bodyguards, fell in love with client. But she married a tennis pro. Ambar knows him enough to know once Nikki married another, he left her for good. He says his intention was to forget her, but she called him from Miami and he traveled to get her back but the trip only proved to him that what they had is over. Hoping time and distance will help her forget her.

Previews:

VO: Time and distance has not helped Vicky and Angel forget their love...

Nil-Brains warns Adri that Vicky will hate her when she finds out that she and Angel have been hanging around together.

Vicky's friend Jocelyn tells her same thing, that Angel and Adri have spent lots of time together.

But also, Vicky receives a visitor, a love from the past. (It's Luzardo!, better known from CME as dreaded Augie...) Could this be the mysterious 'Carlos'?

Comments:
Nelson Brizz doesn't want to be seen with a woman who acts like a tacky, rude, loudmouth in public? Who knew? [I know Kendra didn't see that coming - LOL!]
 

Marta- Great recap of a mixed bag episode.

I really enjoyed seeing JA put Nelson in that hold, and Nelson dumping Kendra. And Anibal left all alone at the table. Yay! But everything else was pretty much a downer.

I am glad that Guzman located Amber in NY and is finally getting that divorce, but it seems that he and Nikki are in for a long, depressing separation. Same with Vicky and JA.

I'm glad that Lili will finally get a chance to study horticulture, but she is getting the short end of the stick in what she truly deserves as a Balvanera. She should not be their employee. Shame on Anibal.
 

Marta: Simply awesome! Enjoyed your title, excellent summary and the embedded vocabulary was a real treat. You covered everything in great detail and with your usual wit and wisdom.

"Playing the game RoyFoyTOy falls down" and "Roy says dont worry, Nikki and I have not had 'any' (there it is!!)" (mystery solved) were fabulous.

Loathing Anibal even more than I thought possible. Still concealing Lili's identity and prolonging Adrian's heartbreak is unconsionable. His cruel taunting of Odette - unforgiveable given the circumstances.

Oh how I enjoyed JA's effortless handling of Nelson and putting him in his place. I would have said "manhandling" but Nelson is hardly a man.

Now that so many know about Bea's pregnancy test results, I suspect someone will tell Santino eventually. Of course Bea is right that Santino will kill Leo when he does find out. Of course, not a down side to that all as far as I'm concerned.

It appears JA and Vicky (my favorite couple by far) are in for quite a lengthy separation. I think it was a wise decision to cast someone who is very different physically from JA for the role of Carlos - Lisardo seems an excellent choice. I have never seen him as a galan so this will be very interesting.

Diana
 

Marta:

Thank you for this marvelous recap!

For a man that professes his family is most important Anyballs SHOULD acknowledge Lili. I agree with Vivi, she should have her place in the Balvanera family. I loved the Godfather's reaction to what Anyballs told him. The Godfather is right, Nikki will not be a happy camper when she finds out, especially now she thinks that Frankie is with Lili. The Angel will be devastated however.

The Ms Vikki and JA goodbye was so sad. I really like how he kissed her hands. But maybe distance will make the heart grow fonder.

Really liked the JA/FF smackdown. When will FF learn that JA can knock him over with a feather. I liked the wrist hold the Angel gave FF. I'm surprised the FF wasn't yelling for his Mama, lol.

I did feel sort of bad for Odiodette, first Kendho comes for a visit to rub it in, and then Anyballs comes to rub it in. I am not an Odiodette fan, but she is so helpless and can't even speak. I like how Jean Marie is supporting Estefano through this and being so nice to Odiodette.

I too am glad that Kendho, Anyballs and FF reaping what they are sowing. Hopefully, the anvils will find them soon.

So finally we get to see Amber. I thought that would never happen. She seems like quite nice. Frankie has the worst luck with women. It actually looked like they were in New York in Central Park. I am glad too that he if finally getting his divorce.

I am glad we know for sure, even though I think we all knew that Nikki and Roy didn't do the deed. Seems when he had no "clue" that "Lili and Frankie" are together, we all know they have never been together, his anger made his tennis game better. Now his game truly stinks.
 

Diana:

It is interesting that they cast Lisardo as a galan, and you are right, I have never seen him as a galan either. He is the polar opposite of the Angel. I can't wait for he and Ms Vikki to meet to see what happens, even though I want Ms Vikki to end up with the Angel.
 

Anita:

Opalina is played by Paulina de Labra in answer to your late post yesterday : )
 

Vicky and JA aren't lacking any love between them. What's standing in the way is JA's guilt about Cris. The separation from Vicky (time), and then an possible rival (Carlos), may be what he needs to get past the guilt and finally pursue Vicky openly.
 

Loved this line:

you will marry me or i will no longer be KenDrat Ferreti (wasn't your name Macaria?)'

Thanks, Marta!

Just conjecture--is is possible that Nil-brains will leave MetaImagen and work for DeLong?

Sara C.
 

Marta- I really enjoyd reading this recap. Thank you so much!

Let me just say, I'm glad it was confirmed that Nikki and Roy did not "sleep" together. I like that Nikki is writing the letters to express her emotions, better than falling back on her disorder.

I too am glad Guzmancito is going to get his divorce from Ambar. Finally! I feel so bad for my Guzmancito.

I really am glad Victoria visited with Nikki, I know they both needed it. Their mother-daughter relationship is so believable, I always enjoy seeing them interact.

So both main couples are going to be separated for a while... this should be interesting to see how this plays out.

For Nikki to even believe a little that Guzmancito would be interested in Liliana is beyond be. Ridiculous!

I have to say I'm really interested to see what happens with this possible new character coming in to possible mix things up for Victoria. We shall see!

Arriaga and Nelson fighting, I found it funny... I'm sure we all know in reality Eduardo could take whatever his real name is, lol.

Team Nikki/Guzmancito


 

Thanks for this brilliant recap Marta. I thought that this was a great episode.

Even though (or perhaps... because) I adore Odette, I chortled (men don't giggle) throughout her hospital scene which you described so very well.

First she is being watched over by the son that she now despises who is shortly joined in his vigil by his lover (the cause of her disdain for her son). Then Kendra (the trigger for her current condition) flounces in to gush over her as her blood boils as she is unable to respond to the beautiful tauntress.

But then the best for last... she is visited by her old (in every sense of the word) nemesis, Aníbal who indulges in a little gloating and prophecy (does he have his own herd of snails?) and ends by promising to buy her the bestest wheelchair ever.

Probably not her best day.

I'm uplifed and encouraged. No way will the writers allow Odette to die without a chance at a little revenge.

Plus... an Amber sighting.

Carlos
 

Sara C:

Now wouldn't that be interesting about FF working for DeLongoria? FF just has delusions of grandeur thinking he will "own" Meta Imagen with the info he has. Maybe if he sees it means diddley squat, we know Anyballs will do something to stop FF, maybe then he will work for DeLongoria!
 

Carlos- Should that be an Amber Alert? Love the new avatar.
 

Thanks, Marta. Great job!

Diana, we have another entry for the Book of Diana:
I would have said "manhandling" but Nelson is hardly a man.
¡Perfecto!
 

Until I actually see Anibal working on some plan, I am skeptical that he will find a way to push Nelson out of the company, the house, and their lives. All his energy seems to be focused on covering his own butt when it comes to his misdeeds towards his daughters and family. I did enjoy him taunting Odette because, well, turnaround is fair play. Odette needs to learn a lesson.

How come no one has sent Stevie the video of Kendra taunting his mom into an attack?
 

Marta--Great recap. I loved the manhandling quip and the marry me or my name isn't Kendra quips. Stellar.

Audrey--you started out the comments with a real truth there.

I feel as depressed as glummilicious Jorge Alfredo Vargas right now. Nothing is going his way--nothing is going my way over here either. I soooo wanted Vikki to bring Nikki up to speed on Guzmi, but maybe she doesn't know enough about a Lili link. But all in all, they said the right things to each other so they both felt better. I soooooo don't want to see handsome Carlos come onto the scene. I sooooo hope he has a wife and kids at home and isn't interested in Vikki at all. But maybe they can put their heads together and make AnyOldballs squirm by pretending--but not so good for Arriaga. Geeesh, I don't know *what* I want other than por fin, let's have some real coupling.

So the newlyweds are off to Toronto. If there was snow & ice in NYC, what's it going to be like in Toronto? Can't imagine it's outdoor tennis weather. Maybe they'll get stranded in NYC and there's a Nikki-Guzmi sighting.

Mads, thanks for the information. I have now catalogued her with my tn characters.

 

Oh, Carlos, you have invented a beautiful new word to add to our tn lexicon (undoubtedly unawares):

"I'm uplifed and encouraged. No way will the writers allow Odette to die without a chance at a little revenge."

 

Vivi:

You are right about the love between JA and Ms Vikki and the only thing holding them back is JA's guilt over Cris. That's why I was hoping his heart and especially his head would grow fonder, lol. You had a much better way of saying it : )
 

Carlos:

I too love your new avatar. Does this forfend, er portend things to come? Have you been communing with Opalina again : )
 

Hahahaha!!! Love the avatar, Carlos.

Vivi-"Amber Alert" very funny!

Sara C.
 

Thanks, Marta. Loved your recap!

It seems that Anibal and Odette are destined to spar with each for the rest of their lives. Each paid a "sick call" to the other and tossed a few barbs - and maybe goaded the other (I hope) into working towards recovery. I'm looking forward to the two of them dancing at Estafano's and JA's wedding!

Nikki still has some growing up to do. The day she stops calling Lili "Ratiana" I'll believe she's ready for a real relationship with Guzman.

And did I catch that the Honeymooners are headed for Toronto? Brrr! Must be playing indoor tennis.

I loved Angel "getting the upper hand" on Nelson.

The mystery man at the end of the episode looks very interesting. Joan/Carlos?

Barbara
 

Thanks much Marta!

It was SO depressing - "try to enjoy your marriage". WHAT?!? - Niki got married as the result of several deceptions, she's told her mom she and Roy are living together as brother and sister (in body as well as in spirit), and the appropriate thing to do is "try to enjoy your marriage"? Too bad Niki didn't me mention to mom that Tatito bought Roy for her husband. Viki didn't even suggest that Niki might want to move on independently?

Whatever!

So looking forward to Lisardo as the cool Carlos.

FF thinks he can live in Anibal's house, eat at Aníbal's table, and just insult his daughters with impunity? Oh, right, FF thinks he's got Aníbal under his thumb.

 

Barbara- I would like Nikki to use this time away to actually figure out what she wants to do with her life, and I'm not speaking about her love life. She is the only person in her household who doesn't work or have some sort of profession/passion (other than Guzman). Despite her clever way with words, she's sort of boring and lame. At least, that's what I would think if I were a hardworking person like Guzman, Lili, Poli, well, anyone, and met her and found out she does NOTHING and is passionate about NOTHING.
 

Audrey- I don't believe Nikki mentioned the brother-sister thing to Vicky. She said marriage was harder than she thought, but that she and Roy are getting along well.
 

Marta – Thanks a bunch.

I know Anibal is a wicked old dude, but I’m disappointed in him taunting sick Odiodette. But I was moved when he got so overcome with emotion on the ADN results that he had to lean on a tree. So I guess I haven’t given up on him yet.

Wow, Nelson stood up for gay rights, well, sort of, when he dumped KendraHo for publicly harassing Odiodette about her son’s sexual preference. So Nelson has now done one good deed on the show.

Nice of Roy to tell Nikki she was free to go to Argentina with her mom if she wanted to. So Roy tried a good deed too. But, nope, Nikki’s not having it. She’d prefer to continue suffering.

Hilarious that Nelson starts a fight with JA over his using Miss Vickie's computer. JA can't even get peace when he's quietly studying alone.

Vivi- The Amber Alert made me Lol.
I agree with you that Nikki should use this time away from Guzmancito to try to grow more and seek to establish her own identity. I have yet to find her boring though, I have hope that she will have time to discover many things she is passionate about besides Guzmancito. I just don't know if it's going to be now, we shall see.

Team Nikki/Guzmancito

I thought Niki told mom Roy was like the brother she never had? ¿O me equivoqué?

 

Audrey- Nikki wrote that in the letter to Guzman what she'll never send. It was while she was sitting by the pool writing, before Vicky showed up.
 

SuperMarta---Thanks for your super great recap. I loved you're line
"another interesting family dinner."

Boy, what a Jekyll and Hyde Anyballs is. Loving at times to his family but cold and cruel at other times. What a split personality this guy has.

Diana---I would say "manhandling" but Nelson is hardly a man. LOL

Vivi---I think that you are right.
Carlos may be just what JA may need to kick it into high gear.

Odette got the tripple whammy last night.Jean Marie, her son's lover--
kendHo and anyballs. How much more can she take in that condition?

That Amber is one pretty lady. The Guzman really knows how to pick them but even with his handsomeness
and charm, he is sure having a rough time.
the gringo
 

Vivi--Regrettably, Nikki hasn't been prepared for any career. They wanted her as a model at Meta-I at the beginning, but she didn't want people looking at her since she was too "fat."

Her family members (and that includes Tomasina) have all been enablers, showering her with love and attention, her specialness as a princesa, letting her lead an indolent life of pool parties, swimming lessons, antro parties, piano lessons (that's a haha), shallow friends, etc.--until Guzman arrived in her life. She doesn't quite know what to make of him, he was so different from her friends. She does need to mature and we see that coming in her "Letters to Guzman." ITA, though, she needs to stop using her fresa phrases on people.

Did anyone notice that she's printing her letters? There's been some controversy lately regarding the teaching, or not-teaching cursive handwriting at the elementary school level? The schools are so paranoid about their students doing well on the NoChild tests, they've eliminated everything extra from the curricula. I guess we have proof positive now.

 

Vivi - ok, I jumbled that. But Viki knows Niki didn't and doesn't love Roy, so why is "getting along" good enough? Oh well.........
 

I was really scared for Amber wearing those spike heel boots on those icy steps!

I'm often terrorized by telenovela female footwear :(.
 

Vivi - I think the writers will put time and distance between Nikki and Guzman so she can mature, maybe find a career or vocation and then return to him as a woman, not a willful child.

Anita - Nikki's "Letters to Guzman", good title! I had noticed that her handwriting/printing seems pretty basic. Do we know if she has mailed any of the letters or has kept them? Possibly these will be a diary of sorts - who knows, maybe she'll write a book on bulimia and learning to love herself before she can truly love Guzman.

Barbara
 

Barbara- "Possibly these will be a diary of sorts - who knows, maybe she'll write a book on bulimia and learning to love herself before she can truly love Guzman."
I like the idea of this.

Team Nikki/Guzmancito
 

Anibal, the 'king of evil', crowned Odette 'queen of evil'.

From her distorted perspective she had visits from three demons: Jean Marie, Kendra and Anibal.

Her acting was brilliant if somewhat painful to watch.
 

I noticed from the close up of Nikki's "letter" that she put circles instead of dots over the "i".
Here is what hand writing experts have commented on this choice:
"Dots of any other shape or circles indicate the immature behavior of the writer and a deep desire to be noticed. These patterns of dots are commonly found in teenage handwriting, revealing the desire to attract attention."
Spot on!
 

Anon 2:01- Very Interesting!

Team Nikki/Guzmancito
 

Thank you, Marta! Great recap.

I was disappointed that Vicky didn't at least mention to Nikki that she could get a divorce or annulment if she felt the marriage was a mistake.

Yay, finally an Amber Alert! (good one.) She seemed nicer than I had imagined based on Guzmi's trauma and "I will never love again" drama. They seem like good friends. When did that happen? And she is eager to get the divorce because she wants to get married again, yet she didn't return his calls before? Whatever.

Why would Vicky be upset that JA and Adri are spending time together? Vicky specifically arranged for him to be her bodyguard.

I was taught cursive handwriting in elementary school, but I haven't written in cursive since the 7th grade. I print everything, including my signature. I don't really see the point of cursive. At least I don't write in text shortcuts :).
 

At this point I want Nikki to woman-up and make her own decisions without other people telling her what she should do, including Vicky. Vicky told her hat no matter what choices she makes, her family will always love her. That should settle that matter. Nikki should have enough brain power to know whether or not she should stay married to Roy.
 

Diana, I second the admiration for your 'manhandling / Nelson is not a man' line. sidebar worthy!

About Odiosa's stroke and her current status at hospital... it is well known that you have great odds to get full recovery from stroke if you get treated within 1-3 hrs after the stroke begins, and I think she got med treatment quickly, so she might just be on a slow road to recovery, but when she does... WATCH OUT Kendra and Anyballs!!

I share the loathing of Anyballs for his giving the crumbs to Lilliana when she should be a family member through and through.

I also like the choice of Lizardo as the new male attractive competition for Angel, Joan/Carlos?


 

Julia,

"I print everything, including my signature."

Hiper-cool, but the question is, do you dot the i with a o or even better a little ♡?

Carlos
 

I don't. I should work on that; I don't want to seem old and stodgy.

On the other hand, working on something would take effort, and we can't have that. Tu cool y yo fresh, okay?
 

Julia,

Neta...sipis

Carlos
 

Would Anibal be any more likely to treat Lili as a granddaughter rather than an employee if she was NOT Adri's daughter? I wonder if he would treat her better if she were simply Cristina's daughter and not "la bastarda" de Adriana and her good-for-nothing, poor "Don Nadie?"
 

Marta - Thank you for the recap! I had to watch this quickly and didn't catch much. Your translations are appreciated.

Not much else to add to the great comments here already, except . . .

I loved Nikki's "It's Hard To Be ME" tee shirt. LOL!
OMG that is so perfect for her and no doubt Eiza enjoyed wearing it for Nikki.
 

Forgot to mention.... how on earth did Salsero get that video of Kendra & Odette? I know, telenovela beanie hat time,,, unless it has gone viral via youtube. But still, does he check youtube every day???
 

Doris, I did notice Eiza's tee shirt and thought the same thing, that it was perfect for her. i want one of those too! but i am nowhere near as confused as she is right about now.
