La Tempestad Capitulo 78 , Wed 11/13/13 - What’s good for Fulgencio is always bad for someone else.

Labels: tempestad
Best recap EVA! Marvelous! Loved every word.
Had to laugh at Fully's lurrvvve declaration to both Mercy and Delfina, too funny. I am still laughing at him praying in the chapel. I am glad Mercy told him to get lost and the eye roll too. Glad Delfina is around another day and glad she changed her will.
Nereo the putz should have known better. He should have gone long ago while the going was good.
Glad, glad, glad Herny is now in the hoosegow. I didn't think Marina would shoot him either. Mags yes, Marina no. I am DamGlad that Dam came to the rescue along with that marvelous Commandante!
So Pester is finally outted with her lies another Yay! Ursully and Pester could open an agency called "FixerUppers R Us" as in we will fix your reputation for a fee. Just a thought.
Glad Hawt Valentin is back! And those Becks and Jose scenes so marvelous. I had to laugh when Jose "forgot" about Becks, too funny. I hope Mags takes Becks' advice.
Cap'n" I am still laughing about the guy and his johnson and coming back to a broke down vehicle, lol.
Thanks so much Captain Sharkbait for all your marvelous recaps for this TN and all the hard work of looking for the missing scenes. You rock!
I like your idea about FixerUppers R Us. If those girls survive they will need a little pocket money.
Hmm. Claudio loves Mercedes quietly and softly. ? Is that like a sister? That's kind of how I see it. Darn, I wish they didn't cut that scene.
I ended up watching the full capitulo 117 online, so I saw the full scene where Jose teases Becky, Mags confronts Fully, and Fully and Claudio face off. Any of these would have been preferable over the Laz-Lu stuff. But I did enjoy Fully b!tch slapping Laz. I cheered.
Uni actually cut a part of the attempted rape scene. It went longer and got more violent and it wasn't until Marina begged him not to hurt her that he came to himself and became horrified at what he nearly did. She should have shot he when she later had the chance.
Loved Fully this episode, and the public outing of Ester. You know a town fiesta is going to have some excitement when she's around.
Commandant goes to Flugencia's home and says he wants to talk about Flugencia's role in Human trafficing. The conversation never happens. Or, did I go to sleep during this epi?
Damian missed his chance when Marina and bebe were finally rescued. "So, how is Hernan looking to you now."
"Phonymoon", "Jose can’t believe he finally convinced that spitfire to marry him", "But Fulgencio refuses to give up the stage" and "Jolly Fulgencio waits for Delfina and greets her smarmily warmly the moment she gets home" were just a few of my favorites.
"Fully blows away in the winds of defeat and confusion" - HA! A pox on you UNI for depriving us of seeing Rene and Cesar, two formidable actors go head to head! ITA Sylvia, we were robbed! I saw bits and pieces of these 2 damnfineactors in La Madrastra and they are amazing.
It was Cesar's night. He dominated every scene he was in - leering, lying, blustering, over reacting and overacting(in a wonderful way only he can). He is the master.
Back to the story.
Laz. Loser. Basta.
The commandante arrived in the nick of time! I'm sure we are not yet Hernanfree but can't see Fully helping him so not sure how he will get out (assume with 6 episodes being crammed into 2 that this will occur).
Loved how Dam unmasked Pester and relieved Delfina told Dam the truth and that Delfina was spared to live another day.
Nereo is gone - thank heavens.
Hoping for happy endings for Mags and the Hawt Valentin (ITA Madelaine), Claudio and Mercedes and a long and happy life for Delfina.
Madelaine, Emarie, Anon and Vivi, enjoyed your comments!
Sylvia, you, Madelaine, Gloria, Mauricio, Elna June, and Novela Maven brought this to life for us and did it in grand style. I would have been lost but for your providing all the missing information and cut scenes. This was a circumvented cruise as much of the lovely scenery was missed but what we were treated to was spectacular!
Diana
My favorite is in reference to the Mags and Pester scene, "Better than bug spray." Mags certainly was the winner of that one, and I'd put my money on her when it comes to Fully as well.
"Please God, make it stop" with Laz and Lu. I was watching real time or I would have fast-forwarded.
Thanks for the "estar con las ganas." That's a new one for me.
Vivi -agree that Hernan looked sad and lost in jail. Ivan's acting is fantastic, although hard to watch when he's loco...which is most of the time.
Fulgencio is always thinking, always coming up with plan B when plan A fails.
I really cracked up at DamSuperFine finding the horse in his moment of need, giving us a multi-wounded hero riding to the rescue of the damsel on a literal white horse!
The unmasking of Pester's fake belly was so sweet--loved seeing that.
Gee, Pester's reign of terror seems to have begun and ended in the town square in front of all the town folks . I wonder if her old frenemy Mayusedtobe was watching her downfall from above...or more likely below.
when DambeatenandBloodied and Herny were fighting! I kept telling Marina to pick up a lamp and help DamNeedssomeHelp out. Get a little proactive , Mar.
I agree that Nereo should have taken his new suits and his new look and gotten out of town. You can dress the guy up , but he is still the same dumb bunny.
"... stuffing his johnson back into his pants."
and make it sound innocently cute.
I woulda thought that Damián would be a skilled mechanic, but he opened the hood, gave the radiator a little pat and that was that. I wonder if he forgot to fill up with gas? Good thing a saddled horse was conveniently nearby.
The Patio cries,“Get the gun!!!”
Dare I say it?... Dam Dim o' Dam to leave Hernán on the floor with a gun within reach and turn his attention to cuddlin' with Marina. First things first. Good thing that Robles and the cavalry were close behind.
Carlos
P.s. I misspelled your name Carlos and Ipad helpfully suggested "Curls."
P.s. Sylvia, loved your funny view of the action. The part about the horseless horseman was especially ....poetic. I love you in a quiet, soft Claudio way. As opposed to Fully who evidently loves in a loud, hard way.
Cynder, glare glare, that was for you babe.
Emarie, Claudio's explanation to Fulgencio seemed so very odd to me. I wasn't quite sure how to translate suave...quiet? Smooth sounded even weirder. Juarever, it was Rene at his hammiest best. And Cesar looked on the verge of cracking up while trying to look angry.
Diana, Yes, it was Fulgencio's night last night. I was blessed. And thank you for taking this circumvented cruise with us. Your presence always improves my mood.
It was funny how both Fulgencio and Hernan basically said that as long as the other didn't screw them up, they were the only ones that might, respectively, be able to help the other. I suspect their relationship is not yet over.
Vivi, thank you for pointing out that Marina begged Hernan not to hurt her. Yes, I think that was the wake-up call for him. And great observation about Herny's prison duds. No wonder the poor little crazy was so sad, sniff.
Golaway, Fulgencio demanded proof of his involvement in the human trafficking, Robles was unable to provide it, so Fulgencio got on his soapbox about his long-suffering innocence. Diversion tactics. We saw no more.
Marta, I love how Mags never backs down. She is fearless, but not stupid fearless like Pester.
La Paloma, great observation about the hero on the white horse. The writers are throwing in as many cliches as possible at the end.
Susanlynn, Pester seems to have come full circle. Do you think her reign of terror is over? Gosh I hope so, but "she's baaaaaaack" comes to mind.
Carlos, I thought the same thing about DamUseless's jeep. I can only assume he ran out of gas. He's been DamPreoccupied of late. Can we chock up his DamDimness to that too? Change of topic, I loved using your "Next!" It packs so much into one word.
Oh yes, excellent comparison of the Claudio love style as compared to the Fulgencio love style. "Normal" might be somewhere between those two. I'm still so pithed at Uni for cutting that scene. True, it added nothing to the plot progression, but it was just SO GOOD.
Adios
Wahhhh!
Seriously. I read this last night and when I came to your goodbye, I was too upset to comment. If anything good can be said for Uni's chopshop, it is that it let us all reach the finish line together.
Thank you for being so generous and hilarious and incredibly smart -- all in one Damn package! There is no one with whom I'd rather share the Public Unpillowing of the Pest than you, my friend.
More later...
“Phonymoon”
“in a convenient moment of self-awareness”
“He loves Mercy in a quiet and soft way (una forma callada y suave). Fully can’t help but laugh and, frankly, neither can I.”
I loved the public de-pillowing of Pester. It was all that I had wished for. And DamGentleman gave her every chance to back down before he hiked up her dress and yanked out the pillow.
Loved the aftermath of the Mags-Pester fight as much as the fight itself, with Mags’ hair all mussed and Rufi uttering “Que barbaridad!” It was a great comic moment. Someone commented earlier that Meija should do a comedy. I so agree.
When I saw the white horse, at first I thought it was Eusebia reaching from the other world to guide Damian’s path, but the guy coming up the hill pulling up his pants killed that thought.
Niece, I kind of had that Eusebia thought myself. When the guy stumbled out of the dunes I literally laughed out loud. From the sublime to the ridiculous, it was just brilliant.
Vario, OMG those terrariums! With Hernan in jail will we even see them again?
Fully can’t help but laugh and, frankly, neither can I. Who comes up with these lines?
And "...more like a gift from the poor guy walking out of the dunes stuffing his johnson back in his pants."
And the heading "Please God Make It Stop" reflected every single one of The Patio's sentiments. POR DIOS. I mean, it's bad enough just to see Jaz-Laz-Rosy-Abi every night, let alone them acting through the. exact. same. scene. every night.
I'm afraid Herny's gonna' bust out of the lockup. We only have secondary bad guys left with Ernie and Herny out of the way. Ursula and Pester just aren't diabolical enough and Fully's too much of a teddy bear. We need the crazy back.
But I got Valentin back after my complaint yesterday so I'm super excited about that. Love his boy next door to Mags' world weary.
Cap'n, I too got choked up with your farewell message. You are a port in la tempestad! I don't know how you're as smart and funny as you are but The Patio is the lucky beneficiary of your wit. It's been fun hanging out with you! :)
Niecie: "And DamGentleman gave her every chance to back down before he hiked up her dress and yanked out the pillow". It never occurred to me that was what Dam was doing but you are so right! I simply thought he was trying to emphasize her lie when the truth was revealed. Thank you.
Carlos: Do any of your comments ever fail to me smile? Nevah.
katy: "Love his boy next door to Mags' world weary". Perfectly stated.
Diana
Show of hands..who is moving on to Robo? I am hoping that the the whole DamBunch of you are coming along for the ride...NEXT. .
Mads, I would love to see bloopers from this one.
Katy and others, thank you for your kind words. As Susanlynn says, "I am here for the party", and people definitely make the party.
So the jeep breaks down in the middle of nowhere and the beautiful young man despairs. ¡Dios! And I'm thinking Le petit prince...
And then the white horse appears and like the rest of you, I'm thinking Madre Eusebia's magic…
And then the guy shows up fumbling with his fly and I'm thinking Monty Python!
And the next thing we know, it's DamHeroic to the rescue and I'm thinking Sweet William may be a damn good swordsman, but he probably can't ride a damn horse.
I'm staying on for Robo. Oh yes indeedy.
My local classical station just payed Hernan's Paganini piece. I wonder if I will ever be able to listen to it again without thinking of that crazy jaw-cracking, neck twisting, bug-eyed, colorfully-clad, Euro-trash babe?
And love Senastian Rulli so that's a bonus.
The party continues!!!
I want to see Mags take on Fully particularly since she so easily dispatched with Pester.
Maybe not, Sylvia. It might be imprinted in the brain, just like that first slow dance song from junior high days.
BTW, did you notice they were playing Eine Kleine Nachtmusik on the yacht during the romantic wedding/kidnaping/attempted murder at sea? [If I had recapped that episode, I would have called it "A Little Night Music."]
Hmmm...first slow dance in junior high....hmmmmm...still thinking
NM, yes, I love that piece! I have heard it at numerous weddings and it seemed completely incongruous with what was happening on screen. But hey, it's violin.
You are the best. This recap was funny, satiric, original and, well, just so SYLVIA. Perfection.
I am flat out crazy busy today so I, sadly, cannot stay to chat with the Patio peeps, but I had to drop by and say how much I have loved recapping with you; this and all the other times we have shared. You have been my recapping mentor and my friend and for this I am very grateful.
Thank you for doing this recap. We will so miss you on Robo.
Abrazos,
Elna June
I am on the bandwagon...I will be watching Robo too. I hope it's a good one. I never watched Amor Real, so I don't have anything to compare it to.
There were so many favorite lines from your recap.
- "Laz runs to her, the girls have a slap fest, Lu runs away, Laz runs after. Next!"
- "...after an efficient catfight the room is cleared of all pests."
- "Marina cries NO! The patio cries YES!"
- "Please God make it stop"
- "DamBestSceneOfTheNight"
There are too many to mention.
One of the best scenes from last night was when DamIToldYouIwasNOTTheFather revealed to the whole town that Pester is a damn liar! The look on Pester's face was priceless. I don't think we have seen the last of Pester or Hernan; it's just a hunch.
And ITA with everyone about CE and his portrayal of Fully. He is a great actor, and this role has brought out the best in him. I never thought I could somewhat like a villain, but he has so much charisma, that I can't help myself. He almost convinced me last night when he was trying to persuade Delfina to give their marriage another chance. Danm he's good; not to be confused with DamHe'sGood!
Just a side note, did anyone else notice DamDelicious make a face and kind of roll his eyes when he was with Marina, Bea, and baby Mercy, and Marina was talking about Hernan having a bad life thanks to Ernesto Contreras? I can't believe that Marina was STILL trying to find an excuse for Hernan, and my guess is that DamYouDon'tFoolMe just shrugged it off to keep the peace.
Thank you re-cappers so much for all that you do, and for all of your hard work and dedication. It is greatly appreciated.
Back to work...Hasta manana!
I have a glimmer of a thought that my first slow dance was When I Fall in Love by the Lettermen. We saw them last Dec., and we are going to another Lettermen concert this May. Oldies but goodies.
Susanlynn, anything by The Lettermen. You saw them? Are their vocals still amazing? They must be good if you are going to see them again.
Aunty Ann, I missed Dam's eyeroll. There was a lot of that going on last night. Sounds like he's reconciled himself with Marina's blind spot. Sigh.
EJ, thanks for checking in amiga. I know Thursdays are busy for you. Sounds like you are having a crazy day.
The "DamBestSceneOfTheNight" was literally like the "DamBestSceneOfTheWholeTN" for me. I laughed through the whole thing, especially when Ursula looks up at Pester like "QTH, prima!" Pester got what was coming to her. She deserved to humiliated in front of everyone.
When DamFab's jeep broke down I was like "Did it get tired from the wild goose chase in the previous episode?". Honestly I think Hernan will escape and go after Marina again. It doesn't seem like he's done attempting to ruin everyone's lives.
--TF
I've been missing in action. Computer not working. Or when it is, people installing new sliding glass doors in computer room so temperature is 50 degrees, dust and debris and drilling everywhere.
By nightfall I'm a misanthropic maniac. If I had any terrariums I'd smash 'em.
Haven't seen any telenovelas all week, not kept up with CarayCaray.
Ms. Sylvia, does this mean you'll be traveling again? Or just taking a break from recapping?
Well, whatever the case, wishing you lots of fun and fiesta, because you have delighted us with your irreverent humor for not only months and months, but years and years. No one else has been a CarayCaray recapper as long as you, amiga, and you're fabulous.
"Thanks for the memories..."
Sylvia, there is only one original guy left in The Lettermen. However, , I saw them twice when I was in college , and the second time I saw them, there were two different guys.vThe original guy is from Sharon, PA. He played a choirboy in the last scene of White Christmas with Bing Crosby. I learned that little factoid at their Christmas concert last year, maybe he I s hard to get along with. they sounded great.. .We saw The Four Tops and there was only one ....original top. Que lastima. However, some other the replacement Tops were sons of former Tops. Little Anthony must be in his 80s, and he is still freaking terrific. We were sitting in the front row and could not believe his perfect, powerful solos.
I must say I loved how DamFab went horseback riding to save Marina and his baby daughter. I sure wish they would have shown it. Now THAT would have been WORTH WATCHING. Instead, we had to endure more scenes with JazLu/Laz/Abi yet again. Please writers make it stop already....
Bye Bye Nereo. Good riddance. I loved CE saying "now I have to be an actor". Damn you, Uni for cutting that little part of the scene! I'm so glad Delfina survived. Would have hated to see her get offed especially since she was the only one who could put a stop to the PesterFakePregnancy.
Well we have 2 more episodes to go. I will miss this TN. I've enjoyed it. For it being a Mejia TN it hasn't been that bad.
