Amores Verdaderos #157 Thu 6/20/13 How Do You Break Hard Candy? Well, with a Big Rock of Course!


Resumes that Knock'em Dead (Not)
Nicky is at an interview at a wedding shop. She hands over her portfolio. The owner tells her that the winter fall campaign will not begin for four months. Later, Nicky visits another dress shop. As soon as Nicky leaves, the manager throws her portfolio in the trash. Nelson told all agencies that they were not allowed to hire Nicky.



Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
 Princess Lilly giddly gives her father a tour of the Disney Forest Wonderland! She practically breaks into song as she introduces him to her new friends Geronimo and Pedro...they are plants. Not realizing that Arriaga is visiting, Roy walks in calling for his "jefa preciosa"! He apologizes for being late, but he fell asleep. For the 40th time, Arriaga grabs Roy and tosses him around, but not in the same way that he tosses Vicky around. Ya know what I'm sayin'? Ok so, where was I? Menacing look? Check. Threats? Shake? Growl? Check. Check. Check! Oh yes, Princess Lilly jumps in between them. She explains that Roy is simply her employee. He's one of my forest friends...like the chipmunks, rabbits or the mice! Her father doesn't buy it. Roy reminds Arriaga that he and Nicky are getting divorced. Lilly tells her father to respect her decision. Roy is a great tailor, she says. So, Bibbideebobbideeboo! * More growling and threats from Arriaga and then he leaves. Princess Lilly orders Roy to get to work sewing little silk dresses for the squirrels.

Cha ching! Cha Ching!
If I were a servant in the Ballsvanera Mansion, I'd supplement my income by being a paid anonymous informant for the Mexican National Enquirer. As usual, the Ballsvaneras are having a loud personal conversation in the foyer. Vicky notices her sister has "that tossed around the wall, on the furniture, on the desk on the floor and in the hallway" glow. Adrianna kinda sorta hints to Vicky that she and Carlos enjoyed some X-rated activies. Vicky is excited for her sister and encourages her to continue to persue a relationship with Carlos. Adrianna tells Vicky that it's only a "Friends with Benefits" situation. Adrianna had always wanted a gaggle full of babies with Vincente, but Carlos is a play boy. Vicky thinks that Carlos will change his mind. Adrianna is feeling insecure about her relationship with Juan Carlos. She's sure that he would drop her for Vicky. At the same time, at Juan Carlos' apartment, Jocelyn and Juan Carlos are having a similiar conversation. Jocelyn asks him whether his simply interested in Adrianna because he can't have her sister. She wants to know how he feels about Adrianna. Jocelyn suspects that Juan Carlos is a man-tramp because he always expected to get back together with Vicky. Carlos considers her words. Anyways, back to the Ballsvanera foyer. Tomi hears the conversation, of course and butts in. She assures Adrianna that Vicky is happy with Arriaga. Vicky and Tomi encourages Adrianna to find love with Juan Carlos. Adrianna agrees, but says that she will continue to search for Lucia.



The Golden Parachute Discussion
At Meta Imagen, Anibal asks Gilda the Sn/B/W/itch to deposit a personal check for him. As she is leaving Anibal's office, Nelson walks in. He tells Anibal that Adrianna is messing around with Juan Carlos. Anibal doesn't believe it. Nelson also wants to discuss his severance package from the company. He tells Anibal that he doesn't want to leave until that new campaign has ended. He thinks the company will make a lot of money off of it and expects a piece of that too. Nelson tells Anibal that he has lost control of his women because Anibal insists on marrying beneath him. He also tells Anibal that he knows his tricks; he's only marrying Candy in order to make her keep her mouth shut. He stresses that if Anibal doesn't pay up soon, he'll expose him to Adrianna who will send both Anibal and Candy to jail on kidnapping charges. Anibal orders Nelson out of his office. Once the door closes, Anibal tells us that Nelson will soon know who he is. Anibal will not be mocked.



Oh, hell no she didn't!
Back in the Ballsvanera foyer, once again, whipped Arriaga is carrying Miss Vicky's bags. They are about to leave for the office, when Doris pays an unannouned visit. Doris is upset because Roy (her prince) has moved in with Omar, his trainer. Vicky informs Doris that Roy works for Arriaga's daughter. Doris is appalled. Arriaga tells Doris that he doesn't want her low-down, lying, two-timing brat with his princess. He tells Doris that Roy was lying to Lilly while he was engaged to Nicky. She flees from the mansion in tears.



Paula Announces News of her Impending Death to Andersonita Cooper
Gilda the Sn/B/W/itch informs Paula that Anibal is messing around with Candy. Paula already knows and adds that Candyballs will marry. Paula tells Gilda that she is dying and also shares that Candy's been taking care of her. Paula thinks she's being punished for betraying Christina and leaving abandoning her family. Both women begin to sob. Gilda wants to know what she can do for Paula. Be my friend and keep my secret, says Paula to Waltina Cronkite.



Trying to Break Hard Candy
At Candy's apartment, Adrianna demands to know what happened to her baby. She begins to cry. Finally, she gets down on her knees and begs Candy to tell her where the doctor and the nurse are hiding. Adrianna believes that Candy knows what happened to her baby because Candy knew Anibal around the time that she gave birth. Candy tells her to get up. As she clutches Candy's legs, Adrianna promises that she will not do anything to Anibal. A little while later, Candy hands Adrianna some water to calm her nerves. Candy tells Adrianna that her daughter will show up soon. Adrianna doesn't get the big hint. Someone is banging on the front door. Adrianna begs her not to answer it, but Candy does not listen. It's Anibal. He tells his daughter to stop bothering his woman. Adrianna accused Anibal of manipulating Candy. She says their just alike. Anibal tells Candy to tell Adrianna what she knows and turns his back so that they can talk freely while he controls the conversation. Again, Candy looks Adrianna in the eye and tells her that she will find her daughter soon. Adrianna storms out of the house.

Candy tells Anibal that she almost caved and told Adrianna that Princess Lilly was her daughter. She tells him about Adrianna begging on her knees. Anibal tries comforting Candy with a hug and later massages her her shoulders while he manages to work up some crocodile tears. He takes his glasses off so she is certain to see his distress. He wants to get Adrianna counseling because she's crazy, he says. She should also see a psychiatrist to prepare her for the truth. Candy doesn't agree that Adrianna is nuts. Adrianna is just being a mother, she says. Anibal switches tactics. Adrianna is his blood, he says. He can't sleep or eat and this is affecting him profoundly. He feels guilty about Christina...He falls to the couch and cries. This whole situation is driving him crazy. Candy drops to her knees in front of him and implores him to relax. He sneaks her a look of amazement. Dammit, even he can't believe that she's falling for Alla thisa Bullsvanera. Candy is on leaning on top of a very uncomfortable Anibal. She's not light as a feather. I hope he can breathe. He weazes as he asks her to support him with her silence. Finally, Anibal is able to push her off of him. Candy repeatedly tells Anibal how guilty she feels and how she wants to end this by telling Adrianna everything. Anibal tells Candy that Adrianna will put them both in jail. Candy tries to explain that Adrianna said she won't do it, but he convinces her otherwise. He says that he doesn't mind going to jail, but he doesn't want to see Candy in jail (and neither does Candy). They caress each other as she tells him that she never wants to see him cry again. He opens up a box and shows Candy the Rock of Gibralter and asks her to marry him. Candy gets all gooey and begins to melt. She accepts. They declare their love for each other. Anibal's surprised that he has managed to dodge yet another bullet.



Amores Verdaderos in a Box
Beatrice brings Vicky a large giftbox. It's from Carlos. Arriaga becomes extremely agitated. He tries to grab the box. Vicky tells Arriaga that her relationship with Carlos is strictly professional and explains that he is making a movie about her book called Amores Verdaderos. Carlos sent her the AV script in the box. She gives Arriaga the credit for making all of this possible. If he hadn't suggested it, Adrianna would have never sent the book to Juan Carlos. Arriaga apologizes for his jealous outburst. Vicky tells him that she only loves him and they he has no reason to be jealous of anyone. They make out.


Disney Forest
Roy teaches Lilly to drive in a dirt field. Lilly puts her hand on the gear shift. Roy puts his hand on top of hers. Lilly twists Roy's arm in an aikido move. Roy gets the hint and promises to keep their relationship professional.


Nelson's Office
Nelson and Salsero are leaving the office to look for houses for Kendra. Salsero is upset because Kendra's plans are working. He still suspects that Kendra may been involved in both Nabila and Christina's death.

Cynderella:

What a fab, funny, succinct recap! I had to laugh at all your Disney references.

Ay Yi Yi, I had such high hopes for Cande. I thought for sure she would be a puddle of tears and fess up to Adri about what happened to Lucia, ah, not so much. It was really heart wrenching when Adri got on her knees and begged. Cande should have told and damn the consequences. I can't believe she is going along with Anyballs.

Anyballs that man is a real wretch. I can't stand him and his lying liar ways anymore. All to benefit him. And Cande just eats all of this up. His true face shone when he hugged Cande and we all saw that self satisfied smirk. He needs the anvil.

And FF, he should be the main reporter of your Mexican National Inquirer, lol. He loves to spread the chisme. He has his hate on for Joan that's for sure. And he wants lots of dinero from Anyballs. Wonder what Anyballs has cooked up for FF and we know for sure it's something, don't we????

Laughed at your scenario of Adri and Joan/Carlitos, it was too funny. Reminds me of that song, er, I'm F*ing Matt Damon, lol. Why is she trying to get Vikki's approval is beyond me. As far as Joan/Carlitos goes I still don't trust him, there is something slimy about him!

Had to laugh at the Angel and Roy, but poor Roy was so terrified of the Angel, I'm glad Lili finally called him off. But I did like Angel going off on Doris. That was just right. Her principe, wasn't so much of a principe, when he was about to marry Nikki and was trying to have Lili. I am glad Angel stuck it to Doris.

I'm surprised that Dances hasn't worked to expose the Ho yet! He has his suspicions about Nabila and Cris, I wish he could find something on the Ho and get her sent off to la carcel. I hope Dances works on that, even though Dances took part in the kidnappings he didn't stoop to murder like the Kendho did. Yes, he should pay for his crimes but Kendho deserves the worst! Sorry Cynderella I know you like her : )
 

Oh, I forgot to add, I love your title!
 

Cynderella you did it again! Hilarious from start to finish! Loved all the Disney references; the forest the plant friends, Roy making silk dresses for the squirrels! But I think my favorite line was:

If I were a servant in the Ballsvanera Mansion, I'd supplement my income by being a paid anonymous informant for the Mexican National Enquirer. SOOOOOO funny!

Also loved Andersonita Cooper and Waltina Cronkite.

The title was pure genius. Since when did Candy become such a pushover for Anibal? I thought the first half of this TN she was disgusted with him and had his number. Now she's putty in his hands (although that rock must've helped!).

Super fun from start to finish! Thanks so much, Cynderella!

Katy


 

Cynderella, one if not THE most inspired titles. Ever! Sheer creativity at its finest.

It was almost impossible to pick favorites but "tosses him around, but not in the same way that he tosses Vicky around", "Princess Lilly orders Roy to get to work sewing little silk dresses for the squirrels" and "that tossed around the wall, on the furniture, on the desk on the floor and in the hallway" glow" were wonderful. The recap was fantastic, from beginning to end.

How could anyone watching a begging Adriana, hysterical and desperate, deny her the truth? Although ignorant of the initial facts, the minute Cande became aware Adri was Lili's mother, she should have spoken up. Every minute of silence from that point on has made her more culpable and her failure to speak up even now to me is unforgiveable.

Madelaine, Anibal's self satisfied smirk was sickening, wasn't it? Agree that Anibal probably has something distasteful in store for Nelson. I'm only hoping that the writers have something equally distasteful in store for the morally bankrupt Anibal.

Am enjoying Roy and Lili's interactions. Lili continues to be feisty - standing her ground, giving Roy a small sampling of "Lilihandling", warning him she is not to be trifled with!

Sorry to repeat myself but (as in real life), the stock market in shares of Carlos is spiraling downward rapidly. If Vincente is to appear, let him do it quickly.

Happy Friday all!

Diana
 

Great recap Cyn. All the best lines have been mentioned, and I also loved the inspired title.

ITA with everyone on Cande. She has become the new Paula. How could she see Adri begging at her feet and not tell her the truth?! Yet, Anibal sheds a few crocodile tears and she turns to putty. This is not the same woman who first showed up in this tn.

Cute scenes with Roy and Lili. She needs to spend more time with him.

I loved how JA shut Doris down before she even had a chance to say SHE didn't want her prince with Lili, by saying HE didn't want his princess with that toad. The look on her face. LOL!

I hope Nikki finds out she was blackballed by Nelson, and then both she and Guzman should have a talk with Vicky. Surely her word is worth as much or more than Anibal's and Nelson's.
 

Ha.....Cyn...I want to live next door to you. I love your sense of humor and creativity. I especially enjoyed "sn/b/w itch" and "candy balls". I am totally done with Candy. How could she stand to not tell Adri the truth as she fell to the floor and begged. The big rock may have done the trick of sealing those lips, but could the old guy still have a spark of somethinsomethin. When he was massaging her shoulders, I couldn't help but think of Mr. Spock performing the Vulcan death grip.
I also liked the "tossing" sentence...all those prepositional phrases. I just might use that for grammar class in the fall semester.
And I hate to admit this, but I am definitely starting to warm to Roy theNovice Gardener . There used to be a TV character on the kids' show Captain Kangaroo named Mr. Greenjeans, Roy needs a pair of those. Also, I keep waiting for his hair to deflate a little as he actually does some manual labor and sweats.
I, too, loved watching the big guy tell Doris off.
 

Cynderella - Thank you for the recap, clever title, and LOL snark.
While I thought Adri had that "well-laid look", your description was much more colorful and fun! ;o)

Madelaine - ITA with you on your assessment of the Joan "slime" factor.

Words cannot describe how disappointed I am in Cande, falling for Anibal's machinations. I'm ready for an anvil to land on her, too.

Susanlynn - I remember Mr. GreenJeans! (oops, my age is showing)


 

Susanlynn: Count me in on remembering Mr. Greenjeans, what a nice memory to harken back to!

Vivi, the best defense is often a good offense and JA was the master last right for certain! ;)

Diana
 

Cynderella – Thanks. Superb title. My favorite lines have already been mentioned, but here’s one more: “Alla thisa Bullsvanera”

Did I see a few gray strands in Roy’s hair? Anyway, I like him. Maybe he’ll be good support for Lili when she finds out about JA and Vickie and, oh yeah, Lucia.

ITA on Cande. But she’s been alone and cut off from her family for so long (of course, by her own doing) that she *wants* to believe AnyBalls is all that. Cause deep down she just can’t be that stupid. In the memory of her daughter, she should have more guts.

Loved JA socking it to Doris. I would love to see Vickie sock it to her too for having Roy marry Nikki for the money.

I used to think Tomi was the smartest person on the show. But that ended way back Espanto “Brad Pitt.” Now I think its Salsero that has the most marbles. Unlike the others, he adds up things pretty well. So now I’m worried about him.
 

Hysterically funny Cynderella. For some reason my favorite line is:

"Princess Lilly orders Roy to get to work sewing little silk dresses for the squirrels.

I actually picture him doing that... he is that smitten with her. She needs to abandon that Guzmán fantasy and enjoy the little bird in the hand she has.

I keep searching for some redeeming factor for Aníbal but that guy just may not be salvageable. I'm thinking that this is a job for Odette.

Carlos
 

Maybe Odette will take out Anibal via silla-de-ruedacide.
 

Great comments late afternoon-early
evening yesterday about Princess Nikki and the Little Orchid/Little Bear. Aribeth--Vivi--Susanlynn--Novela Maven--Jorocha and anyone that I may have missed, deep thinking, superb analysis and excellent food for thought.

Now me.
Anita---Bar the little Orchid from the patio??? BITE YOUR TONGUE!!!
Osteracize her to the fathest most
patio corner??? QUE??? Now let me
get this strait. Nikki the "Brat Princess" that starts every fight--
Nikki the "Brat Princess" that's so dumb, she knows that she's gonna
get her but kicked but still goes ahead to provoke Lili---yes that Nikki, she gets a table right up front while the Little Orchid gets
ostracized? Well I will sit at Liliana's table whether up front along side the brats, off to the side or way back in Sibera. Anita,
SHAME ON YOU!!!

I'm done---now on to the recap.
the gringo
 

Thanks everyone for your kind comments.

Arriaga grabbing and yelling at Roy is getting old. If he's going to punch him, he should just do it, if not, just leave him alone. I'm getting annoyed because it's the same scene over and over and over again. It's just in a different location.

Mads, I've heard of the Matt Damon song, but I've never listened to that song. I don't think Sarah Silverman???? is funny and I'm not really a Matt Damon fan.

Katy and Diana, thanks. I'm glad you liked it.

Vivi, thanks for pointing that out. It didn't dawn on me that Candy watched Adrianna beg, cry and plead with her and she failed to break. However, when Anibal cries, she is heartbroken and agrees to do anything for him. Now Candy really does bug me.

Susanlynn, that ring was awfully big. I probably would have worn it for a day, gave it back and then told what I knew. Maybe I would have consumed a lot of salt so my fingers would swell and they would have to cut it off....but I would have told.

I remember watching Captain Kagaroo, I remember the name Mr. Greenjeans, but I don't remember his purpose on the show. I just remember everyone sitting behind a counter and a bunny rabbit. Right?

NiecieinMD: Salsero was a thug and a criminal so he knows what to look for. It doesn't surprise me that he knows what Kendra is up to. At the same time, Nelson can read Anibal because their the same. He knows what to look for.

Carlos: there comes a time when the villains have gone too far. Anibal isn't an amusing villain anymore.
 

Shame on Candelaria! She deserves to end up alone and sad and alone and sad!

 

Cynderella---Thanks for the recap,
you're so funny and one of the best titles ever.

FF as a reporter for the Mexican National Inquirer---still laughing

Wow! Quite a showdown between Doris and JA last night. JA's eyes
OMG!!!

Loved little Lili, Lilihandling Roy
in the truck with an Akido move.
OWWW! Unlike Nikki, Roy will think twice before he tries to put a move on her that she doesn't want.
Go Little Orchid!
the gringo
 

Great recap, Cynderella! Except...you really hoped Anyballs could breathe?! I was hoping he *couldn't* breathe!

Other than that, your recap was mil ocho mil veces better than the show. Melt-in-Anyball's-hand-Candy and Gumballs himself were boring me to sleep.

I am getting irritated with Arriaga. He's made his feelings about Roy quite clear. Now he needs to step off. The daddy-on-the-porch-with-a-shotgun act isn't funny and it isn't endearing. Lili is an adult, however delusional she might be. Anything that gets her away from her Guzmi obsession is a step in the right direction.

How does Nelson have so much influence over every agency in town? Did he threaten to never hire any of their models again if they hire Nikki? How many models does MetaImagen hire anyway? It seems like they use their same people (Kendra, then Nabila, now whoever the new one is) for everything. Estefano needs to come back and hire Nikki and Guzman both directly. Maybe Vicky should join them, too!
 

Cyn--a real trip to DisneyCuckooLand (or CuckoldLand, your choice). It was fast paced and hysterically funny. What do you do when you are trying to be serious?

gringo--I forgot that some of the Patio Peeps are undyingly faithful to the Disney Princess, but you have to agree, she's been acting up a bit lately, more like a Ballsyvanera Queen. We just wanted to remind her that nothing in life is permanent, including table locations. Susanlynn will be keeping you and Lili company (but as I recall, she's willing to sit there in case she has to make a quick getaway).

Dang, we just knew it was too early for KandyKane to spill the frijoles, but did we have to witness that heartwrenching scene of Adri's go on and on?

Anyballs can take his ice-blue glasses off anytime and it won't make him any less of a lecherous lying ba*tard. I wish he'd shampoo his hair once in a while.

Doris was sure shocked that Vikki didn't immediately rebuke Arriaga for speaking to her like that.

I'm with you, Mads, Salsero is pithed that Kendra is getting a house and everything going her way even though she was probably involved in Cris AND Nabila's deaths (he was saying this to himself). If he's going to bring KendHo's House of Cards down, he'll need to start his with his investigative magic soon. Don't know if that will be enough for Nikki to forgive him and rehabilitate him in Bea's eyes. For Bea's (and Guillo's) sake I hope he doesn't have to make the ultimate sacrifice.

Ah, Mr. Greenjeans. I'll be showing *my* age to admit that the show went part and parcel with my pre-school kids' breakfasts. Mr. Greenjeans was the Cap'n's foil, but did have a role in introducing some of the segments. What I remember best of having to watch the show was the song, Morningtown Ride (my favorite verison is by the Seekers). Still love that song.

 

Gringo...So..It looks like you, Lili, and me at that table in the back of the patio. I'm sure Roy the Reformed Boy will want to sit next to Lili, and I would be happy if Lili's papa bear stopped by.

Nel.SONE is such a little tattletale. He is like that kid in every class who has to snitch to the teacher every time someone does something. Worth LESS little weasel. He so deserves to end up with KendrHO.


I hope Dances survives and thrives and forms a happy family unit with beautiful Bea and Guillo. They (and I) need a happily ever after.
 

Cyn and Anita...My memories of Mr.Greenjeans and that show are fuzzy. All I remember is that he was a tall dude in overalls who wandered around and occasionally chatted inanely with the Captain. Was there a kangaroo...or just the Captain ????

Geez...word ID.."spittle"...gross !!!!!
 

Cyn..I never heard that song, and I agree that Sarah Silverman is not funny...crude..but not funny. Did you watch Beyond the Candelabra? Matt plays Liberace's gay lover. He is very blond and look very young.
 

Susanlynn--There never was a Kangaroo. There was a Moose, a Bear and a Rabbit, though. There was always a running gag with ping-pong balls.
 

Great fun Cynderella, especially the title, thanks!

We missed the first half, then hubby muted the second half because he was "tired of listening to Darth Vader". LOL!
 

Cyn, great job, great title. My heart was broken for Adriana. Down on her knees, how could Cande be so heartless.
Did anybody notice that almost everybody was playing with the Disney Princess' name? I was just laughing hard. I guess it's contagious. Rufiana, gratiana, etc. etc.
 

Audrey - LOL the "Darth Vader."
~~~heavy breathing~~~ .... "Cristina . . . (more heavy breathing) . . . I am your father..."
 

LOL Doris!
 

From Yahoo TV.Elsewhere Thursday, Fox’s unscripted combo of “Hell’s Kitchen” (1.9/7 in 18-49, 5.1 million viewers overall) and “Does Someone Have to Go?” (0.9/3 in 18-49, 2.4 million viewers overall) were virtually unaffected by the basketball spike. The net tied with Univision as the No. 2 broadcaster for the night in adults 18-49. The Spanish-language net was led by “Amores Verdaderos” at 9 (1.6/5 in 18-49, 3.9 million viewers overall)
 

"Princess Lilly giddly gives her father a tour of the Disney Forest Wonderland! She practically breaks into song as she introduces him to her new friends Geronimo and Pedro...they are plants."

"For the 40th time, Arriaga grabs Roy and tosses him around, but not in the same way that he tosses Vicky around."

"He's one of my forest friends...like the chipmunks, rabbits or the mice!"

" Princess Lilly orders Roy to get to work sewing little silk dresses for the squirrels."

"If I were a servant in the Ballsvanera Mansion, I'd supplement my income by being a paid anonymous informant for the Mexican National Enquirer."

"Vicky notices her sister has "that tossed around the wall, on the furniture, on the desk on the floor and in the hallway" glow."

"Candyballs"

"Trying to Break Hard Candy"

"He sneaks her a look of amazement. Dammit, even he can't believe that she's falling for Alla thisa Bullsvanera."

" Candy is on leaning on top of a very uncomfortable Anibal. She's not light as a feather. I hope he can breathe."

"Lilly twists Roy's arm in an aikido move. Roy gets the hint and promises to keep their relationship professional."

Awesome recap! :)
