Caray, Caray!

Ah, friends in the patio, have a seat, make yourselves comfortable as I tell you a tale, a tale about a bad, bad man named Pedro Mendoza, his crimes are many, his testicles few and word on the street is that he has no heart, personally I think he suffers from chronic constipation-this would explain the way he talks, maybe this medical condition is the reason that he is a bad, bad boy. We will come back to Pedro soon, I promise.

However, first we will talk about Fabiola, a woman that has many problems,she hits the bottle hard, if you know what I mean, and she also has a terrible hair cut, frankly I'm more concerned about her bad hair than I am about her drinking problem, I mean, who needs a working liver when you look like that? Anyhoo, she has just bullied poor Amelia into telling her the truth: her parents adopted her and she realizes that that's why her uncle left her alone at a foreign boarding school, he did not love her because she did not have his blood running through her veins, little does she know that she is actually his daughter. Fabiola throws a fit, which prevents poor Amelia from running after Virginia, her often over looked and neglected daughter. This will have serious consequences, as poor Virginia runs into Adolfo, who takes her home, drugs her with the help of Maria and takes staged photos of her tied up in the living room, the photos will be sent to bad boy Pedro who will use them in order to blackmail her father.


Angelica, don't leave us!

Angelica, a beloved friend and wife is not in good shape, she is in the hospital on a ventilator as she can't breathe on her own, this makes everyone on the patio tear up, we all know that she did not want to return to the hospital, she was tired of all the medical procedures and simply wanted to live out her last remaining days with her husband who is now by her side whispering to her, asking her to stay with him and telling her that he loves her and when this was happening I had the tissues out, and I was praying to the telenovela gods for a miracle. Later, Refugio, Jose Luis's other soul mate comes to chat with his buddy (why is he bringing this to Jose Luis now, can't he see he has other, more pressing matters to worry about?)-he tells Jose Luis that he has spoken to Montse, and that she has been informed that there was been no confession from her husbands alleged accomplice, they need to find a way to get this information to him before he signs a confession admitting to a crime he did not commit. He also tells Jose Luis that while Montse is uber angry at him but on the bright side she does not hate him. Yay?

Angelica was removed from the ventilator and is looking better-I think, she over hears the conversation that Refugio is having with Jose Luis- she hears him say that their only hope is to get Joaquin to take back his statement where he claims that Alejandro was part of the drug trade operation, Refugio suggests taking Angelica to the jail to speak to her father in hopes of getting her to make him see the light. Jose Luis does not like this idea,  Angelica is sick and fragile! She speaks up and begs him to take her to the pokey, she wants out of the hospital and she wants out now!

In the hospital lobby Amelia is taking to her husband, she tells him that Angelica is on her death bed and this makes Joaquin cry like a baby. She makes things worse by telling him that life is a funny thing, that while he turned out to be a scum bag, Jose Luis turned out to be a good man who is looking after his daughter, she tells him that he is the only one to blame for the separation of the family, it was he who refused to be a part of his daughters life and now it's too late to mend fences. Joaquin tells her that she is right and asks her to ask Angelica to forgive him, she tells them that she hopes Angelica forgives him but that she will never forgive him for all the things he has put her family through, oh and by the way Virginia ran away from home, bye! Joaquin is left in tears.

Dude be a hero

Alejandro sees a torn up Joaquin and approaches him, the two men talk and Joaquin tells him that his princess, who always viewed him as a hero is dying. Alejandro uses this moment to try and talk some sense into Joaquin, he tells him that his daughters grew up having their father in their lives and that he wants to be there for his son, he wants to be a hero for his boy and begs Joaquin not to take this from him. Joaquin softens and promises to make things right.

And then Pedro comes along

Pedros minion, EZ has failed to get a confession from the drug lord and now Pedro has to go to plan B, he visits Joaquin and asks him for one small and final favor: could he like, kill himself? Joaquin is all like WTF man, why would you ask me to do that? Pedro tells him that he can't allow him to live that's too much of a liability and then he shows Joaquin the pictures that Al and Maria took of Virginia, he tells Joaquin that if he wants his daughter to be returned safely he will do as he is told, he is to write a suicide letter and leave it somewhere where the guards can find it.Joaquin tells him he will do it, but he asks for a favor in return, his baby girl is about to die and he wants the chance to say good-bye to her. Pedro, his heart cold as ice tells him that won't be possible, but look I got you some nice paper so you can write both your girls a farewell letter. Dude, there's a special place in hell for you..


Join us tomorrow when Joaquin bites the dust!
