Que pobres tan ricos #76 22 Apr 2014. The band is a hit, Perla hits DA with a kiss, and Don Chuy goes beserk with the news that Lupe and MA are a couple..Subtitle: Al que no quiere caldo... le dan dos tazas
Lupita happy, tells Chuy it is true, she is in love with someone.
At Mercado, MA is handing Dona Queta a banana. She tells him she wants someone to drive her around the next week to do some errands. He offers his services. Trust me. She is speechless, eating the banana.
Back to the Fonda. Chuy grabs Lupe's hand and swears he would never put walls between Lupe and whoever she wants to be with. He wants to meet the guy. Lupe says you know him… (is it that old guy who lives with his mom around the corner?) Lupe tells him he lives here in the barrio, as a matter of fact, he is here in the house. Who is it? MA… (Chuy takes his hand back, stands up… )
L: What are you going to do?
C: I am going after that guy, going to put the cards on the table… I did not help you make it and watch you get your life back together… only for that guy to come and… Can’t believe you fell on the trap again…
L: No, it is not a trap. Noone is deceiving me. MA is not Alejo.
C: They are same family, same genes, same family tree, share the same bathroom, the same jocks (ok, i am going overboard here, you get the drift), … He is a criminal!.
L: He is no criminal!.
C: Now I get why you defended him so much. But I am going to find him right now and speak to that miserable guy…
L: You are not going anywhere, papa! And please forgive me for speaking to you in this tone!
Trofeo arrives at Lupe’s house, Mati opens the door. "Lupe is not here, went who knows where, with who knows who? And who knows what time she will be back." (Trofeo leaves the envelope with Mati). "What do I do with this letter now?"
Back to Chuy and Lupe...
L: I don’t want to argue with you. I want you to understand me. I want you to tell me the nice things you just did tell me a while ago.
C: I wish I could. But I just remember the day you came home crying desperately because that guy had deceived you. And I won’t let it happen again to you.
L: It won’t happen.
C: Know what? I can’t talk to you right now.
(he leaves, she cries)
MA at market still waiting on Queta, now treats her to a drink/agua fresca. Queta is still reluctant to take HIM as her driver, says 'what if something happens to you? You don’t know these streets!'
A-hole arrives home and Mini and Isela welcome him… They comment that his new love interest will run scared when she realizes his ‘instrument’ is not functional anymore. A-hole gets instantly miffed (well, he got miffed the moment he saw them sitting there as the welcoming committee) and recites loudly some rules of the house: you won’t talk to me at all! Because you two don’t exist, you couple of witches! Isela responds: Witch your mother!
At dance club, Leo is about to leave, Gwendy gets the gorilla-looking guy from the entrance all over her wanting to dance with her. The guy who hired the band pulls Frida aside and tells her theat Gwendy, DA and the others can’t come in, they don’t fit the ‘image’ of the people he wants to frequent this place. Tizoc says ok then we will go too! Frida then argues with the guy… you want this event to fail like the other attempts you have made? (That seems to be enough convincing, the guy comes back and welcomes the gang…) Tizoc does not think that is enough, and demands the guy apologizes to them. The guy ends up apologizing and even treating them all to whatever they consume tonight. (Tizoc looks very cute with that shiny silver suit).
Mini tells A-hole that she is determined to have a position at the company. She wants to be director of a fashion magazine. A-hole laughs her off… you have of fashion executive what I have of astronaut!... Mini is not laughing it off. She threatens to spill his beans if he won’t give her the position. The ladies leave. A-hole is very irritated, calls Vilma and asks how the divorce from this ‘furcia’ is going! He can’t take it anymore!
At the dance club, Chilaquiles has his hands all over Carm and she is not enjoying that. Gwendy has that gorilla guy pretty much breathing on her nose… and she is not enjoying that either. The guys leave them alone. Gwendy asks Carm what is wrong, since she looks very uncomfortable. Carm is sorry she came. Gwendy is not enjoying herself either, wish she knew some wrestling moves to defend herself (from gorilla).
Mini and Isela are listening to A-hole's conversation with Vilma on the phone. He keeps yelling at Vilma and ends up throwing the phone on the picture frame that was hiding the baby monitor. He finds the monitor. Then he puts two and two together really quickly so he talks to the monitor as if it were a microphone and keeps bashing wife and MIL with curse words… 'You are listening to me, pair of cockroaches? I will destroy you two as I am destroying this ‘transmitter’.' (throws the monitor on the floor hard).
Leo and Chilaq are at the bar... with that other guy… Chilaq asks Leo if he wants a drink. Leo says no… the guys leave. Leo stays with the bartender. Leo is trying ot count his money as if the coins were toxic, says ‘I never touched coins’. The bartender gives him soda in a bag. Leo is surprised it is in a bag but takes it anyway.
DA and Perla are dancing, he offers her a ‘chela’ (beer)… he goes to the bar and finds Leo there… Leo is drinking the soda in bag with straw. DA says 'why are you drinking that, get a mixed drink!'. Leo does not need much convincing.
At the house MA is back. Lupe tells him that she told Chuy. From her face MA can tell it did not go well. They hear noises of someone trashing a room next door. MA asks Lupe what Chuy said when she told him. "He sayd little… that you would betray me, that the same thing would happen to me again." MA says "ok then I will go right now and tell him how much I love you and that he does not need to fear about that." Lupe says wait a little until he calms down. MA insists he will go over there right now to tell Chuy about how much in love he is. Don’t worry, stay here.
At the club, it is time for the show… Backstage, Tizoc has some stage jitters and Frida cheers them on… "You will do great, they will make everyone dance and have fun and you all will be very successful!!"
DA and Leo are still by bar. DA asks Leo how good is their music. Leo is offended that DA even asked, "if you want to learn about art, this is not music… lots of noise but no music! You have to listen to real art!"
Tizoc starts the song… La hippiris-nais!! "Lo que quieres es poner tu ley, si quisieras yo seria tu rey (what you want is to impose your law , if you wanted I could be your king)… todos te dicen la hippirisnais!!" Frida is enjoying the show smiling directly at Tizoc.
MA goes into living room as if he were going into his execution chamber. There is a stream of blinking lights by the saints that catches his attention, he gets a bit scared… MA knocks in the room Chuy is in, Chuy thinks it is Lupe again so he comes out repeating he wants to be alone a while. He looks like he has been crying for a while. MA tries to start talking and says he wants to explain about himself and Lupe.
Chuy: Explain what?? That one day you showed up in this house to mock my family and myself? That you came to take advantage of my daughter? That is very clear to me! You don’t need to tell me what you are feeling for my daughter… (MA insists he wants to explain, Lupe is listening from the other room) Chuy says explain what? That you let me down and let her down?? I can’t even believe I left her in your hands that day at Chalma! I will only tell you that the doors of this house are open… (MA thinks he might be out of the woods and says 'thanks!') are open! … but for you to leave YESTERDAY!!!
Chuy: You better than anyone know I opened the doors to this house to you because of Mati and your granddad RIP… (Lupe comes to try to defend MA, MA tries to talk) … I received your family in the best way… and have done nothing but treat them good… One thing is for me to do that on my good nature, and another very different is for you to see my face of an imbecile!! (again Lupe tries to interfere to say something in favor of MA)… I won’t calm down!! (looks to MA) and you know already. You will leave tomorrow first thing in the morning!! (Chuy leaves, Lupe hugs MA who looks very sad).
Tizoc was very well received at the end of the first song… lots of applause, they start the next song.
The guy is still right on top of Gwendy’s shoulder… Carm is also not enjoying Chilaq bein so close to her. The women escape to the ladies room… Gwendy and Carm comment that both men are getting very wasted in alcohol. Perla comes to join them… Perla looks a bit tipsy from alcohol, invites them to dance, says something about ‘los del otro lado’, apparently pointing to DA. Gwendy and Carm apparently don’t get yet the interest of Perla for DA.
Bambi calls someone on the cell phone but can't get whoever to answer. Bambi is very mad… ‘you dare not answer me, chaparro/a??!!’
Another song with Tizoc and his band… the rap one ‘amor de microbus’… we see Tato has arrived and is sitting at the bar… Frida is staring and smiling at Tizoc all the time and Tato sees this and is not happy about it.
Perla tries to steal a kiss from DA, he does not react very positively at all. "Don’t do that again!!"
Lupe and MA … Lupe is scared about Chuy’s reaction, did not think he would take it that hard. MA is more calm. He is even ready to jump back in the lion’s den, and go tell his mother. Lupe is not so brave ‘that was enough rough reactions for one day, leave it for tomorrow’. Lupe still feels her dad sooner or later will turn around. He knows her and knows that if she trusts MA, it is for something. MA mentions Nepo… Lupe says Nepo will find his own way too. They end up kissing. MA is afraid her dad will show up again, but Lupe kisses him again.
The band finishes the ‘amor de microbus’ to even louder applauses. Perla is not happy. Tizoc is excited, Frida hugs him and even kisses him. In the background we can see Leo chokes on his drink at seeing this. The guy who hired them happily pays them. Perla gives 5400 to Tizoc. She has kept 10% as manager fee. Tizoc is not happy at all.
Bambi finally gets the other person to answer the phone, and talks like it is a woman. It IS the woman, actually the tv anchor woman who was slopping Saul all over a while back. He loved the news report on Bambi, where she was sending him coded messages with what she was saying. That way the police did not find him. She will continue to mislead the police so they will never find him.
Mati found an old magazine where there is an article and photos about her winning some award. She asks MA if he remembers that, she can’t. MA says yes, you won that award and many more. Mati is sad that she can’t remember anything. MA says when she started to lose her memory he was in London, and according to the doctors, with the medications she is improving and soon she will recover much more. (we hear AS complaining for them to shut up, let her sleep. MA and Mati just laugh it off).
Bambi needs to meet with the girl. She does not think it is a good idea, but he insists he MUST see her soon. She finally gives in to a meeting.
Carm is ranting loudly at Perla right in front of the bar, with Gwendy witnessing with her hands on Perla's shoulder. Perla looks lile a bratt who was caught with the hand in the cookie jar but also looks a bit wasted. Gwendy says to Carm that she went a bit overboard. The bartenders come by giving everyone their checks.
When they arrive at the house, Perla keeps on going, Frida tries to say ‘good night’ but to no avail. DA takes his leave. Frida asks Tizoc if he is still mad at her for taking the 10%. Tizoc says what made him mad was that she did that without consulting with him first. He does not want to argue, he takes it a lesson on how ‘people like you’ are. He will try to remember so he can behave the same way to them.
Tizoc walks into Lupe, she sees that the gig went well but something is wrong. Tizoc not as confident as Lupe that Chuy will turn around. Here comes Chuy and he can guess Lupe was telling him about MA.
Perla argues with the mirror as if it were her older sister ranting at her. (she does not consider herself pretty or desirable... ugh! That is a deeper issue than just getting DA to notice her!)
Chuy follows Tizoc, is mad that Tizoc knew about Lupe and MA. Tizoc tries to defend himself saying he was not ‘for’ it, he knows because he caught them kissing. Chuy says I have enough with Lupe and MA. Don’t even think of having something to do with Frida. Tizoc answers him that he is grown up and can handle his own relationships (thanks Anon 11:49, I know i missed something JT said that was bad enough for Chuy to react that way!) and Chuy tries to put his hand on him. Tizoc makes a quick move and puts Chuy on an arm hold. But Tizoc has the good mind to leave before this goes any further.
Up in the penthouse MA tells AS and Leo that Lupe and him are in love. MA has to repeat to AS that he is in love with Lupe. AS faints. Leo will have to pick up his jaw in pieces, it just shattered on the floor.
Previews: AS confronts Lupe, ‘Absolutely nothing will happen between you and Michael Angelo!’
At Mercado, MA is handing Dona Queta a banana. She tells him she wants someone to drive her around the next week to do some errands. He offers his services. Trust me. She is speechless, eating the banana.

Back to Chuy and Lupe...

Thanks for this recap. I missed the first 20 minutes!
I am so annoyed with Chuy. Yes, because of Lupe's history he is worried, but there was one point where he told Lupe that this had nothing to do with her when he was going off on MA. Except it's her life! Lupita is a grown woman, and she is plenty smart. He really needs to take it down. I was glad Tizoc told him that he's an adult and free to date as he likes.
It was so great seeing Tizoc and the band doing so well. And he's right to be upset with Frida because she didn't lay everything out. As he said, he's not bothered that she took the money, but that she didn't clear things up with him beforehand.
Poor Perla. She shouldn't have kissed him, but I get so annoyed hearing women in TN's chided for being "ofrecidas". She really didn't need that speech.

Marta:
Thanks so very much for this fabulous recap! I missed some and so am glad you put up all these details.
I too am mad at Don Chuy! He is painting all the RPs with the same brush, so to speak, because of Ahole. I really didn't like that Chuy was going on and on about the same genes. I got news for him, just because you have the same genes doesn't mean you are exactly as those related to you are. Even though AS and Leo now are a bit more like Ahole.
So that TV reporter is in cahoots with El Bambi. No wonder she was sliming all over Saul, to get insider info. I hope MA takes that job as a driver. Let's see if he gets to have a chat with El Bambi, just a guess, not a spoiler.
I felt so bad for Perla. I agree she didn't need that lecture, but what concerned me was her actions in that mirror, as if she was thinking she was ugly and overweight. I think she's beautiful and perfectly healthy with no weight issues.
So Carm's little plan backfired. I think if she was still working for Don Chuy, she could have gotten him to see reason. I hope she tells him off anyways.
I had to laugh at Mini, Isela and Ahole. He thinks he can just ignore Mini? Shame on him! I hope she does an end round around Ahole and gets a job on the fashion side with the approval of the board. I think the "Zombies" would be all for her ; )
Thanks again Marta, for this most marvelous recap : )

Thank you for your great recap, Marta.
I sure agree with everyone about Perla. If Diego is ambivalent about his sexuality or knows he is gay, he needs to stay away from her since he knows she is interested in him. One could say he used her just to get a chance to see Leonardo. Her scene in front of the mirror was sad.
To me Don Chuy's reaction was very much in keeping with what he went through as a parent watching Lupita suffer with her Alejo experience and wanting to protect her. I liked MA's comforting reaction that they were just at the start of things and Don Chuy would come around in time.
The physical demonstration of don Chuy's rage was very humorous (with all of the violent sounds raining down from the second floor) as well as MA's careful approach as he went to talk to him.
Don Chuy was out of line being angry at Tizoc for not telling him about MA and Lupita and then getting into him being interested in Frida. I think don Chuy was shocked when the old wrestling hold was turned right back on him.
Poor doña Mati wondering about her illness. MA also was a comfort for her. The big question is what did she do with the letter from Nepo (probably calling in the loan)?
Looks like AS's reaction to the romance is going to be just as extreme as don Chuy's in her own way!

Thanks so much Marta for this great recap. Like Anon @ 11:49, I'm annoyed w/Chuy's attitude and (soon-to-be) AS but they will just be other obstacles for our lovers to overcome.
Mads, I hope the zombies give Mini a job as an exec. What fun that would be!!
Jarifa, yes poor Perla indeed. The mirror scene was sad. And Diego did use her; he needs to step up on this though we know that probably won't happen for a while.

Thanks, Marta, for giving us a great breakdown of the drama.
I'm proud of MA for keeping his cool with Don Chuy.
Concerned for Perla, since she doesn't have the experience or maturity to see beyond Diego to other possibilities.
Mini and Isela have lost their secret weapon, now that Ahole destroyed the baby monitor.
I was happy for the band's success. Tizoc was right to be annoyed that Frida didn't negotiate to be their manager. A touch of RuizP superiority there.

Thanks, Marta! I missed part of this and was happy you did such an excellent and thorough coverage of the details. Plus I liked your little joke of just how close Chuy thought MA and Ahole were.
Loved the band's performance. They have come a long way. Yes, Frida should have talked to Tizoc before about taking a percentage when she gets them work, but I also think he was more peeved about it than it deserved. He himself told her they were only business associates now. If it's just business, did he really expect her to get nothing for her efforts and connections? It's normal for an agent to get part of the pay! And 10% is actually a little low for an agent's fee!
That isn't a case of "people like that" swindling the poor out of money, it is merely a case of someone doing something completely normal for a business deal but not clearly communicating the specifics ahead of time. Get over yourself, Tizoc.
Chuy also went overboard in his reaction. Like father, like son, but I'm glad Tizoc stood up to him.

So where are the Ruizpalacios going to go if Chuy really does make them leave? I bet Diego would be willing to take Leo in. MA and Frida might be able to pinch their pennies and work enough to rent a room somewhere (how long until Nepo finds out MA is Lupita's novio and fires him, I wonder?). Chuy might let just Mati stay. AS will probably have to camp out in a department store like on Where the Heart Is.
If MA really wants to prove he's on the up and up, he needs to tell Lupita and Chuy about the money Aureliano left and how they can collect it, and also that AS was the one who stole the money Nepo loaned them!
Thank you for the recap Marta!
I felt so bad for Lupita during her talk with Don Chuy.
I agree with Julia that Tizoc overreacted. I think they should have made it clear what where the terms of their business relationship during those times they claimed that was all there was between them.
Frida got 600 pesos for her work, remember when MA gave away 200 pesos to a bus driver when he had just lost everything? I can't let that go.
