La Tempestad, September 25, 2012. Capitulo 43.
Labels: tempestad
Such a fab recap. I love the way you are able to condense, but get all the pertinent details! Marvelous! I also liked your comments about the boots and that there was tons of BS to step in, lol.
Herny just won't stop will he? He says he'll back off, let's do a white lie, I picture him with a hand saying come here, and the other hand, stay away! I can't stand him! What a jerk. I hope Marina stays strong and continues to rebuff him. And now Herny wants to kill Ester/Hada? What about Pervy Ernie, he'd make the better murder victim, jus' sayin'. I know why he wants to kill Ester/Hada instead, being the sole heir is a great motivator, but still!
I am so glad that Tia Becky sees through Herny's BS. So smart. I hope she stands with Marina against Herny all the time! That kiss with Jose, so Hawt!!!!! She needs to give Jose a chance.
Not liking Dragon at all. He's in PEAM too, lol. I hope DamKungFu keeps kicking Dragon's and his henchies' butts.
I am liking Claudio (Rene Casados) what a great actor. I like his words of wisdom to DamDepressed. I think the book he gave him was "Romeo and Juliet". I think Dam actually liked the book, he kept reading it : )
Why didn't Fully confess that he was Laz' Pappi? He had the opportunity. I am glad of one thing Fully told Laz and that was to confront SHUTUPROSY! She needs a good anvil on that head of hers. I wonder what she'd say to Laz? Probably lie.
I really hope that Herny does give JazLu a job at Neptune. The further away she is from Nereo the happier I'll be, even though Herny is not doing this out of the goodness of his heart.
I hope the club manager manages somehow to capture Maggie. I hope Mercy reconnects with Maggie soon.
Wonderful recap Gloria! I liked "DamBalls" and:
(Marina should be wearing boots right now. With all the bull crap he is sprouting).
I am really getting stressed out by this novella! I know the characters aren't real but I just HATE the way Hernan persists on hovering over Marina, going on and on about his love and then shamelessly manipulating her. For some reason his condescending reaction to her wanting to put in a daycare was the most repulsive of all.
Can I join the William Levy/Rene Cassados book club?!
Mads, I freeze framed it and the book was a collection of Shakespeares works, among them Romeo and Juliet. I think it would be cool if Dam got his GED in the lockup but I hope he won't be there that long.
Thanks, Gloria. There was TONS of stuff I didn't catch last night and you filled in all the gaps.
So now the story has turned into a Pygmalion. Educate the lowly mariner in jail so he can be worthy of his lady love when he gets out.
I'm getting stressed out by this novella too, Katy. I haven’t missed an episode yet but if Hernan doesn’t stop touching Marina I think I may flip out and have to stop watching. That was really irritating me last night.
Liliana
I know Marina is suffering from being “betrayed” by Damian, but ITA with everyone that she should be fed up with Hernan’s hovering. I’d almost rather see Ernesto getting busy with Estercita/Hada than see Marina continue to let Hernan touch her. Well, almost. Yuck! Thank goodness for the Jose-Becky beso.
Can’t stand Fully of course, but as a pop it’s kind of nice that he’s looking out for Laz and didn’t diss JazLu and is even trying to get her away from Nereo for him.
The fight scenes were a hoot. It’s always nice when the bad guys wait their turn, giving the good guy a chance to wallop them one by one.
"Ursula says that Marina needs to be dealt with, because Hernan is hers and only hers". I love how a few furtive looks and one minute's worth of conversation can make someone believe another is theirs alone. If only life imitated art.
In spite of how odious Ernesto is, Hernan's behavior is making my skin crawl even more. Madelaine and katy, I see you both are on the same page too!
It makes no sense that Becky (who intuitively realizes something is off with Hernan) to condone Marina's pretend pairing with him. I am grateful for her and Jose's kiss - one of the few nonrepellant kisses/gropings of the evening. Sigh.
I also love Rene Casados and am so happy he is here! At least Dam has an ally who is helping him physically, psychologically and intellectually.
Thanks again Gloria!
Diana
"They were looking for it, replies DamBalls."
Now that is just a helluva sentence. And describes our feisty, sculpted, muscular man to a T.
Sounds like I need to fast forward through the whole episode until I get to the José/Rebecca kiss. Off to do just that! Thanks for a wicked and well-detailed recap, Gloria. You rock!
I'm glad to see Rene Casados too. It is good to see that he is here to guide DamFab. I also want to be a part of their book club. Wonder what story DamFab will be reading next.
Hernan admitted to have done terrible things and Marina still continues to let this guy be near here. WTH?? All the things he said to her should have been a red flag for Marina that he is nuts.
Loved the fight in jail. DamBalls gave those guys a good beating. Claudio even got a chance to kick one of them. DamBalls better watch out though because Dragon for sure will want to get revenge.
Madelaine, loved your comment "DamKungFu"...
I couldn't believe he didn't finish middle school. I wonder why? and why is Claudio in jail, he sounds wise.
Right when I finally accepted WL's weaves, they chopped it off. But not complaining. He looks 1000x hotter with short hair.
Katy, I agree with you. I too get really stressed out by this novela. I want Marina and DamFab together and all the craziness to be resolved, but that would mean the end of the novela.and no more WL. It's a vicious circle.
Note to Ursula: You can have him, sweetie! You two would make a nice pair.
You got that right about both Marina and Ursula. I really thought for a minute that Herny would allude to more of the evil things he had done, of course not going into detail, to Marina, like for instance getting that job at Neptune and his purposes for it, but that would be showing his hand. I wonder how long it will be before she actually sits and thinks about that conversation and wonders exactly what bad things he has done. As far as forbidding her to see DamBalls, he was sadly mistaken there. The nerve of him!
I also liked what you said about Ursula! I wish she would just take Herny up and leave R-LayDee, wishful thinking. It'd be great if they hooked up.
I am stressed out about this TN too. It drives me crazy sometimes when Fully, Nereo and Herny continue to get away with all their crap. That poor DamFab is locked away for something he didn't do, typical TN formula.
I wonder how Herny thinks he can off Estercita and I guess he has a plan to dispose of the body, cause if it happened to surface, with no water in the lungs, all I can say is Dun, Dun, Dun Dunnnnnnnnnn.....
Sad to see Damincarcerated in jail battling bullies.
Speaking of bullies and jail...my daughter's soon-to-be ex, gets the girls every other weekend and takes them to dinner one night each week. Now that she has moved into a townhouse which we own, he is not supposed to enter her home. However, on Tuesday night after dinner, he returned them and pushed his way into the house holding the three-year-old. Then, he started yelling , swearing, and pushing our daughter while she was holding the three-year-old. This morning she got a PFA . If he comes into her house again, he will be arrested, but her lawyer did not want him to be able to take the girls this weekend and the judge did not support that. Can't believe our justice system sometimes.
""(side note: looks like DamFab is the fighter and Claudio is the manager with the getup he's wearing."
So funny. I'm good with the red scarf but I do have a little trouble with the guyliner. Ah well. Must be in RC's contract, I guess.
Diana,
I also felt that Becky's forgiving attitude towards the fake courtship was a little weird. I expected her to tell Marina to steer clear of Hernán. Period. Everyone should know by now that H has an ON switch but no OFF switch. Yes, Mauricio, let Ursula have him!
Katy,
"Can I join the William Levy/Rene Casados book club?!"
Me too. I'd like to read with the boys. [But maybe we could meet in a different place, a nice round table on the Patio, say. With refreshments and good lighting.)
So here's the Shakespeare they were Brushing Up (because, like you, I am delighted at these details):
Hamlet
Penas por amor perdidas (Love's Labour's Lost)
Los dos hidalgos de Verona (Two Gentlemen of Verona)
Sueño de una noche de verano (A Midsummer Night's Dream)
Romeo y Julieta
The Tempest isn't even in the book. [¡Qué decepción!] From their conversation, it sounds like DamStudious is starting with Hamlet.
My absolute favorite moment of the episode:
The SNEER on Miss Universe's lovely face when Hernán FORBIDS her to visit DamInnocent in prison. If you missed it, it's worth checking out. In that fleeting instant, Marina reflects all the scorn the Patio dwellers feel for Hernán, the would-be Conquistador.
I just read what you wrote. I am so sorry that you have this ongoing heartache. How disappointing that our justice system is letting you and your family down.
I've said this before but it is worth repeating -- how lucky your daughter and grandchildren are to have you and your husband around, sticking up for them.
Susanlynn- There are no words. What a horid situation. Let's just hope this just puts your daughter one step closer to being able to legally get the loser out of her and her daughters' lives.
Niece in MD, ITA about the prison fight scene. So civilized--no switchblades or shivs. Just a good friendly sparring in the cell lol!
NM, thanks for the translation. For some reason I couldn't crack "Love's Labour Lost"!
ALERT: Did everyone notice NEW CREDITS AND PHOTOS??? It is VERY interesting and I'm not sure what to make of it (probably shouldn't think too much!). Starts the same w/ol' bewigged Cap'n, then goes to new DamGQ Cap'n. What confused me the most was in one shot it looked like Dam was with Ursula. NO PUEDE SER!!! Wow he cleans up nicely. Worth watching the credits Patio Peeps!
WL looks smokin' hot in the new credits. I don't like the looks of those new couples one little bit.
Diana
I had been guessing that Damián's time in the slammer would be short if not sweet, but now with the addition of Claudio, I'm not so sure.
My frustration with Mercedes continues. That lady just not have a talent for multi-tasking.
It's fun watching the Estercita we've come to know and love emerge bit by bit from this catatonia. When she is finally back it should be lots of fun for everyone. Who knows, the old Estercita might be perfectly content being the adored wife of a mob boss, however elderly he might be.
Can Hernán get any creepier or more pathetic?
Susanlynn, I'm so sad to hear about what you and your family are going through. Good luck to you, your daughter, and her daughters. Thank goodness that your daughter has such a loyal firmly centered mom.
Carlos
Katy, I'll join that book club too! Sounds like we've got a new activity out on the patio. Novela Maven, have you already reserved the table? Something tells me we will fill the patio.
Oh my oh my, THE KISS! Way to go Jose. That was by far my favorite scene in the entire episode.
ITA with you all about the odious Hernan. He said it to Marina himself at the beginning of the episode, "I'll never leave you alone. It will always be that way." Marina, LISTEN and learn! And what sane person does not want to hear the bad things that someone says will have them burning in hell? Hello...(knock, knock), anyone in there Marina?
Bravo for getting it all. I zoned out of some of the convos (and I couldn't understand most of Herny's mumble jumble either), knowing someone's steady hand would be at the helm.
Best,
Elna June
"And what sane person does not want to hear the bad things that someone says will have them burning in hell? Hello...(knock, knock), anyone in there Marina?"
What is wrong with Marina? Like I said above, that should have been a red flag for her. She is being so stupid when it comes to Hernan.
I too am saddened to hear about the continued bad behavior of your ex-son in law. I too am praying for your whole family and I too am glad your strength is there for your daughter and grandbabies.
