Caray, Caray!

CD- now that Isa is in the woods, all I can picture is her running from the cabin in the rain.
 

Thanks for the recap TJ. I'm hoping CD is wrong and Isa will live through this. In my tn, she would not return to Art but that may not happen here.

Watching Feo's continued torment of Isa is horrible. Things need to start blowing up in his face. We are getting a nice unraveling of Sonia's world. I just hope Fab gets out of it alive.

I say let Art go to Dr. Evil and marry her crazy behind. He can find out after he's married to the witch that she is evil and set up Isa. And hopefully his bratty daughter realizes that Isa was sacrificing herself after her dad marries the nutcase. Unfortunately this will still not satisfy me as those two dolts need to have some consequences for their willful stupidity and selfishness.
 

Thanks so much TJ. Loved "Ara, with that perdoname and $2.50 you can get on the NYC subway"

Wow, a woman that has been in peoples lives for 10 years and consistently conducts herself impeccably and no one but her best friend & business partner and two employees even give a flip much less even inquire her whereabouts. Art is a powerful man.

Cuca - do a FedEx commercial

Fab - he'll go postal

Dan - whatca waitin on son

Osvi - hypocrite, no, bastard

Gil - Pizza Hut, How to Win Friends and Influence People

Efran - "If you see a faded sign at the side of the road that says
15 miles to the Love Shack ....Love Shack, baby, Love Shack"

Bruno - even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes

Isabel - honey, did you rearrange the furniture while I was out

Sonia - missed your shot, days late and millions of dollars short

Fernando - "Havin' my baby What a lovely way of sayin' How much you love me Havin' my baby" NOT

Art - what's the hold up it's been a day already and you got her waiting in the wings

 

Tablet jefa, stellar recap. You captured everything included the many sordid details splendidly.

"Ara, with that perdoname and $2.50 you can get on the NYC subway)" was my favorite line. I totally agreed with your comments as you stated what we are all feeling "Please let Fab make it through this episode".

At the minimum, at least Sonia's problems are such that she may put her plan to kill Cuca aside for the moment. Let's hope her fruitless quest to save her marriage takes precedence. That is of course if she survives her meeting with Feo first.

Feo's busy days are now consumed with continuing to torture Isabel. I had hoped he would take revenge on the doctora for ruining all his plans but alas, it doesn't appear that will occur.

Hoping Dan will be invaluable in helping to put more pieces together (loved your title too). Thank heavens for Andrea and Mau.

I dare not think of what Feo has in mind for Isa. Nothing has gone right for that poor woman! I keep wondering how these incredible actors (Susana especially) is able to turn their emotions off once they leave the set. Especially in roles where they are so abused!

Karen: “I say let Art go to Dr. Evil and marry her crazy behind”. Love it. Splendid.

I don't care what happens to either Ara or Art. I do however care about Isa and want her and her child alive and well at the end.

Tofie, Watching Gabi going off on Daphne was SWEET.

Cuca: will she survive this week ?

Don Gil: does he know something about who Mari's mother is?

Isabel will need to LEAVE MEXICO and NOT look back ever again. Art will end up marrying Maricela.

Mari might as well be with Borlas, barring some DNA testing regarding if Maricela or Sonia gave birth to kids and dumped them ?

 

Thanks so much TJ!

Karen- ITA with your whole comment.

Poor Isa. Thank goodness Mau, Andy, and Gaby are on the case.
 

Karen- I totally agree
tofie- Amen to "Wow, a woman that has been in peoples lives for 10 years and consistently conducts herself impeccably and no one but her best friend & business partner and two employees even give a flip much less even inquire her whereabouts. Art is a powerful man."
Thank you - Diana and Vivi
CD- I am hoping that the writers spare us anymore tragedy for Isa. A divorce may not be in the cards being that she is pregnant.
If Cuca goes, so does Dan and Tita. Hmmm
 

tofie, agree with TJ that your comment about Isa was great.

Also liked "Art - what's the hold up it's been a day already and you got her waiting in the wings". You nailed it.

Anon, You gotta wonder if they're still following the original TN storyline from the mid 1980s ?

If the trends continue, Isabel might as well get used to being a single person.

How long before Ally dumps Bruno for one of the biker dudes and takes the kids with her?

 

CD, I hope Isa does end up single. She has suffered enough with Art and Ara, the two most insufferable characters ever.
As Tofie said, 10 years of trying and it was never enough.
It was SWEET when Gaby let loose on Daffney Duck.
 

tofie- you capture the essence of the characters daily with your lists.
 

thank you TJ. The list or take my TV to the dump and be done with it
 

I'd like to see Isabel pull a Dirty Harry Callahan and tell both Art and Aranza: "Go ahead, make my day." as she drives off with her baby .
 

Thanks TJ! Well done! Did anyone else notice that when Fab fired Javier he was smart enough to cancel all Javier's accounts and tell him he couldn't retrieve anything from his office? Wouldn't it be funny if everything on the company computers was backed up to the "cloud"? We know that recording of Sonia and Raisin is still out there either on CD or in a backup somewhere.

Art can rub his two remaining brain cells together and, with help from Bruno, figure out Sonia. But he spends 11 years with Isabel who has devoted herself to him as much as Eugenia did and he can't figure out she's not a liar or a cheater? Didn't their relationship start out with Sonia interfering? Art is getting on my last nerve. Someone hit him with a 2x4.
 

CD., I would like Ally,Gaby ,and Isa all end up with biker dudes. They seem like standup guys. . I also would love to see them beat up Fernandont because I cannot see any of these other suit dudes doing it. The Bonbon could join in the rumble.

Thanks , TJ, for a great recap. I am more interested in this novela than Robo right now. I want to watch the anvils rain down on the wicked.
 

Whoops...darn tablet...anonymous was me..sorry.
 

Art needs to wind up with the witch doctor. She would not put up with any nonsense from Ara and would eventually smother Art to the point of death if necessary.
Xintperuvian, you gave Art too much credit for "two remainging brain cells" but I agree with you.
 

WOW!!! These last few episodes have been riveting. Thanks TJ, you helped to fill in a lot of blanks for me.
Cuca talking a mile a minute--that
really threw me. Filler? Yes, that makes sense.

This isn't important but I have to say it---Aranza at school. Have we ever seen her with a school book or studying anything?

Karen---I loved the final paragraph from your post 1:40AM

Tofie---You're a riot. Your list is so good, how can I just choose one or two things to comment on? The whole list is good. There must be something in the water down there. Could you send me a gallon or two?

I love watching Sonia squirm. Villain, yes but Dominika plays her part so well that she's a pleasure to watch. Things are starting to unravel fast now.

Must see tv tonight. Will Isa manage to get away? I can't wait.

If Art finds out about Isams accident and doesn't care , he dead to me . I hate the idea of an ending that pits this family back together again and AbRAt back with the Bonbon. Isa and bonbon deserve to be either people who love and appreciate them.
 

Susanlynn, if Isabel dies in the end of this TN, you know Art and Aranza will be HAPPY.

Part of me wishes they killed off Isabel in that car accident that killed Miguelito months earlier.

 

Susanlynn---If Art finds out about the accident right now, he probably won't care but if he finds out after a few days when he has had some time to think a little, that could be different.
the gringo
 

The fact that neither Ara or Art gave a darn that Isa had been in an accident was just disgusting, not even asking if she were alive or dead was disgusting. And the thought of Art crying with apologies (endlessly) over his behavior, which we know is coming, is just as disgusting. A happily ever after for this tn will be disgusting too if that's how it ends. Disgusting.
 

xint- thanks for adding about the access codes. I did foregt about the cd that is lose. I hope that Fab gets time to peruse Fervier's things and find that incriminating cd.
gringo- I have yet to see Ara with a book, but supposedly she is a good student.
CD- I like your comment about the biker dudes.
Susanlynn- I'm already done with Art, so he would have to a lot for me to resurrect any feelings.
anon 3:24- don't be so disgusted. :-)
 

Great work, and I agree that Isabel should tell Art to take along walk off a short pier in the finale.

More after the next episode. Need to get something done before I go out.
 

Thanks, TJ.

I agree with xlnt. Someone hit Art with a 2x4, please.

As long as Isa has a happy ending I will be happy. I sort of hope that happy ending does NOT include Art and Ara.

I never felt like Ara really loved Esteban anyway, so I am fine with him finding someone else. Normally I don't like it when they throw a love interest in at the last minute, but I would LOVE for a new lady to show up out of the blue for Este to fall in love with.
 

Fabulous recap, thank you!!

BFF mystery solved: Her name is LUCERO. Finally Sonia mentioned her best pal's name when confabulating with her yesterday--she called her Lucero. I'm glad this question was resolved before the novela ended. Unfortunately, I don't see that name anywhere in the credits, so I'm still wondering who the actress is. Anyone recognize her?

Torbie in North Carolina
 

Sara---A new love out of the blue for Este? I never thought of that.
I guess it could happen but I doubt it. Remember their Fake marriage when they were in grade school. They didn't show us that for nothing.

As for Art and ISA---Everyone is so angry right now but my guess is that Art will get a brain cell
{remember there was a lack of brain cells in CI] soon or the ones that he has will start working again and in the end, Art
and Isa will kiss and make up.
Sorry conservative but that's my prediction.
the gringo

 

I'm with Sara and don't think Aranza was in love with Esteban. He was crushing on her for so many years she just enjoyed the adoration. Aranza will never love anyone equal to herself, ever. What I haven't heard from her yet, other than to her father she lied about telling Javier about the money, is any apology at all for her behavior since she was with Javier. She'll start up about looking stupid to everybody and then start mumbling and rambling on with the buts. But he wanted the money, but tricked me but that damned hell hound of a mother slept with my boo. She had an in your face haughty attitude the whole time while everyone shut up knowing she would rain down a tantrum. When she starts up about he hurt me, I loved him but he didn't love me, when talking to Esteban (and he says not a word) I want to wring her neck. Never occurs to her nor does she lose any sleep over what she did to Esteban. Poor me, me, me, whew, these pity parties are tiresome I need to go lay down.
 

thanks Torbie, I heard it but didn't jot it down. LUCERO. Don't know who the actress is though. She knows all about Sonia's and Fernando's checkered past.
 

Veronica Montes I believe plays Lucero
 

Torbie---I couldn't find anything about a Lucero, Sonia's friend. Vivi is the expert. If anyone would know, she would.

In the opening each night we see the good people frolicking in the ocean---is that a clue as to who will be with who when it ends?
the gringo
 

Tofie, I agree with you on Aranza. Esteban has always been too good - meaning honest, straightforward & moral - for her. I would love to see him with someone else. Would any man want to stay with a woman who slept with his own father? Just too many creepy "Jerry Springer" vibes there for me.
 

The writers really are leaving the fates of most of these characters up in the air. It's frustrating but also novel. Other than Tita and Osi, Mau and Andy, and now Gil and Agatha, I have no idea who will end up with whom, and who will be left standing/alive at the end.

Looks like Tofie found the real name of the Lucero actress. We've known her name is Lucero for a while, but given that Sonia only talks about herself and Feo when they're together, she has hardly ever said her name out loud.
