Que Pobres Tan Ricos #163: 8/21/14: She's Come Undone

Hola Amiguis! This is my last full recap for Pobres. I didn't take many notes, so if I got something wrong just let me know. Take a listen to this little earworm as you read the recap. She's Come Undone!  Shall we begin?

I am skipping the old and getting right to the new.

At El Editoral Vilma calls Ahole. She still wants out of the joint. He tells her to be patient that he'll be the President soon and then he'll get her out. Vilma is googly eyed and beleives the lying liar that lies. Sucks to be Vilma.

Carm and Guendy are having a chat. Once Guendy marries Nepo she will be moving into his abode and Carm says no worries, she is still going to be living at Guendy's. Carm has to go now, but will talk to her more this evening.

Ahole goes to MA's office and tells him he is willful. MA says he knows that Ahole forced Lupe into marrying him to satisfy the Grandfather Clause. Ahole tries to get MA to beleive that he and Lupe have done the hubba, hubba. We'll get back to them in a tic.

Carm and Rita have a chat. Carm likes Rita she tells her. Rita is a bit skeptical, but Carm says she can read people pretty well. Rita feels that Carm needs something good in her life.

Lupe is talking to Emi and tells him to get ready. They are going to visit Don Chuy and then she is going to his school to disenroll him. Lupe goes toward the gate and it won't open. She asks the bodyguard for the key, but he tells her, so sorry so sad, Ahole has forbidden Lupe or Emi from going anywhere. Sorry!

Don Chuy is with his luchador buddies and Rita is introduced. Don Chuy explains she used to be a luchador in the Uniteds and as proof grabs a guy arm and gets him to yell for his Mama, not really, but ya know.

Ahole is now goading MA. Says MA is crazy in love with HIS WIFE. Then Ahole gets decripitive about Lupe's body, she's sensual and she is so into the hubba, hubba with Ahole. MA isn't buying any of what Ahole is selling. Ahole says he thought he'd have to force Lupe, but she's all into him. MA kicks Ahole in the damaged avocadoes and he falls over. Ahole tells MA that Lupe is his all his.

Lupe has to tell Emi they can't go anywhere and she wants him to apologize to Onyuki. Emi yells for her, like Isela used to, but he apologizes. Lupe asks Onyuki for the keys but she doesnt' have any.

Tizoc and his band practise at the Fonda, and I must say they are better than before, even the girl. Frida comes, it's sonogram time for the bebe, and Tizoc will go along. The new song is La Guerita Mas Fresa. The band starts another song, Lo Que Es El Amor, but Tizoc isn't liking the sound and neither is Frida. She tries to offer advice and Perla wants to know why Frida thinks she is such an expert. Perla also gives Frida I'm watching you sign, you know the one, fingers to the eyes!

Saul comes to MA's office and stops the fight. MA complains to Saul, but Saul tells MA for the time being he is still the President of El Editorial. Ahole informs Saul eh, not for long. Ahole also tells MA he is not allowed near Ahole's "familia" cause MA is a pyscopath. After Ahole leaves Saul gives MA hell. Saul and MA talk about Vilma. Saul thinks Vilma is like Mission Impossible and especially about finding that book with the numbers. Saul also tells MA that Isela sold those stocks to Said.

Ahole goes to his office and wants Valerio to hit him. Valerio barely taps him. Ahole goads him and Valerio hits him so hard he knocks Ahole out.

Mini and Isela are in her office. Mini calls Isela compulsive as far as spending goes. Mini also wants to know why Isela is being so mysterious. Isela tells her she is like Marie Antoinette, but Mini reminds Islea she could wind up on the guillotine like Marie Antoinette.

Leo and Trofeo are talking in the juice office and Trofeo is showing off his English a bit. Trofeo goes and DA comes in. Leo and DA hug and Nepo sees them. Leo is a bit nervous but Nepo tells him he wants him to listen. We'll get back to them in a tic.

MA is pithed about that damn Grandfather Clause. Ahole will be in charge then and Mini and Isela will benefit. And AS will be all porca miseria! Saul gets a good laugh over MA's imitation of AS.

Nepo asks Leo's pardon for all the names he called him. Leo is just happy that DA and Nepo understand each other now and are closer. Nepo says he respects Leo and Leo says that he and DA have a good friendship which does not please DA.

Ladies and Gentleman the decision for the President of the Happy Foundation (Thanks Decie Girl) is in. Chabelita and Beba keep them on their toes. Isela and AS anxiously await the decision. Actually Said picked the President and Isela is over the moon, until it is announced that Said thought AS was the better person for the job. Isela can't beleive it, after all of AS' scandals. AS is over the moon, they also mention something about Leo, and Isela, is foaming at the mouth. She disses them all and goes, BYE!

Perla and a bunch of girls go to a place in La Nopalera. It's a place to register for the contest of Queen of La Nopalera. Perla thinks she's got an in cause she is a Top International Model and just for good measure Perla also submits Frida's name.

Now to the succint part of this recap. I am going to try to condense this some. Seems Don Chuy is having a hard time speaking his feelings so to speak. As Carm waits breathessly to hear what she's been wanting to hear for awhile. Don Chuy asks her to be his socia and companera. Carm tells him she has been dying of love for him for a very long time. She would love to wake up with him every morning by her side. Evidentally he still isn't ready for re marriage and doesn't love her as much as she loves him. He asks her to think about it. Carm is sad. I think he may have asked her to marry him. I'm not sure. I guess Don Chuy is still a bit afraid.

MA has gone to Ahole's house and yells for Guadalupe. He doesn't get an answer and climbs the fence and falls into the backyard and is met by Lupe. Lupe tells MA that Grandfather Clause meeting is manana and she tells him Ahole is gone. Emi comes and Ahole right behind him. I bet Emi called him. Ahole has also brought his skeevy lawyer, who serves MA with a restraining order. If MA comes near Ahole or his "familia" he gets arrested, and as a matter of fact the cops are on their way. Lupe wants Emi to go in the house, but Ahole keeps him there. Ahole disses MA right in front of Emi, Lupe tries to stop it, but is unsuccesful. Onyuki comes to get Emi, but Ahole isn't done. Ahole tries to say that MA gave him this bruise on his face. If MA doesn't go the cops will arrest him. Ahole shoo shoos the lawyer away. Ahole lies to Emi and tells him MA is very bad. MA also wants Emi to remember how he treated him in La Nopalera and all the good times they had. Lupe warns Ahole to stop and she gets MA to go.

Isela, after her little adventure at the Cloob, comes back to work and finally tells Mini that Ahole killed Dona Mati! Mini isn't beleiving it. Isela will use this info for money of course. Mini thinks Isela is a liar and Mini wants to leave Mexico, get out of the country. Isela tells her hellz no. She'd miss her tacos and Tequila! Mini is scared cause if Ahole really did kill his own Grammy, what else is he capable of? Mini thinks Isela is cray, cray! Mini doesn't want to be an accomplice. Isela says never forget she is Mini's Mama and Isela slaps the crap out of Mini.

Lupe is giving Ahole crap after MA leaves.Lupe calls to Emi but Ahole tells her, she and Emi are not going anywhere.

Mini is crying from that slap. Meantime Isela is looking for another charity she can become the head of. She's on the internet and scrolls through a bunch of charities, and doesn't like the poor children ones. They are brats Isela says. Mini is still about the slap and Isela gets firm with her and tells her to sit. Mini does.

Ahole is still poisoning Emi. He keeps up the lies about Lupe and MA, how they cheated on Ahole. He tells Emi if MA comes around Lupe, Lupe will take off with MA. Emi is looking a tad perturbed.


Avances:

MA and the book of numbers.
Lupe calls MA. Must see TV!

Good Morning Y'all,

Please enjoy the recap; I will see you again for the Grand Fin!
 

Madelaine,
Thanks for the recap.

Alejo is such a liar how is he able to get away with it all.

I can't wait to see the look on his face when he finds out Isela knows. That he knocked off his grandma.

I hope Lupita will get that black book and Alejo goes to jail/prison.

I guess Perla is going to start some drama now. She's such a ding dong air head. lol...

I thought Tizoc and the group sounded pretty good.

Lupita should complain that she is being kept as a prisoner. But I guess that would make to much sence in this novella.

But I'm happy that Lupita is now going to be looking for the black book. About time she used her brain to get something on Alejo. Oh yeah the show is almost over she can now use it. lol...

I wonder if Alejo will be caught in tonight's show or we have to wait till Sunday.


Well we will all see sooner or later.

Till the next episode.
AnaG.
 

Mads, what a fun way to start the day with the earworm (another one of my faves) and the most excellent recap!

Don Chuy and Carmelita: that was one sad scene but it was my favorite. Don Chuy talks around and around his relationship (feelings) with Carmelita: asks her to be his business partner, talks about finally saying goodbye to his dead wife Marcelita, then about being his companion. Finally, Carmelita asks him if he is asking her to marry him. That is when he comes up with being afraid he would be a disappointment to her. That is enough for Carmelita and she tells him the problem is that he only loves her in parts and that she deserves his whole love. If he is afraid they can be business partners. So much for his "half *ssed" proposal. I was so proud of Carmelita! She is not willing to settle even though she has been in love with him all of these years.

That was some scene with Isela and Minerva. They were at their best/worst! Isela warned Minerva that she felt like slapping her but Minerva kept pushing it and bingo Isela let her have it. I liked how Isela described Minerva's father as always being a big old sleepy head in his seat; a conformist!!!! Isela has become so power hungry! I wonder how she is going to feel when the truth comes out who is really benefitting from the sale of her shares.

AnaG., I also don't understand why Lupita would not call the police if she is being held prisoner in the house but as you said it is novela land.

Diego was so cute the way he was looking at Leonardo as Nepo was explaining why he is the way he is and apologizing.

Alejo's anvil better be good for what he has done to his son.

Jarifa


 

great recap, Mads!
one little detail... in the Saul/MA convo... just like I suspected, Saeed bought the shares of the editorial on request from MA (I had said AS) and MA is fully aware of what is going on, he is relieved that once this deal is done the control will again be totally on the RP side... (he did not say Isela would have to leave the offices, but at lest seems she would not have that much power).
So MA is buying these shares from the RP money...
(between the RP money MA is using to buy the shares and the money AS transferred to her personal account, there won't be much that A-hole will collect on when the clause is completed, at least as far as him 'draining the RPs dry' as he plans.

I wonder why Perla suggested the name of Frida for the contest... she should know that if Frida is competing, she might not win... but i think Perla is being naive enough to think that just because she was on a cover of a famous magazine, she has the winning ticket automatically, or maybe because of the neighbor votes (she did mention this to Tomas some time ago).

So in previews we see Mini telling MA that A-hole killed his grandma... wow! i knew she was not going to be able to keep the secret... i should have known she would go right to MA with it.

and yes, I agree with Jarifa's explanation of Chuy / Carmelita convo... He is afraid of commitment to anyone and he is also afraid of losing Carm as a big part of the business if it doesn't work out between them. So he is reluctant to mention the word love or marriage to Carm. He first tells her he is ready for it... she assumes it is marriage to her and she asks him directly. He says more like want to be 'associates'. She is hurt... he tries to fix it saying he feels ready to turn the page from Marcelita... Carm lets him explain further and he continues with the 'i am afraid' bummer. So Carm told him she is old enough to know exactly what she wants, and she wants full commitment from anyone she decides to join her life to... so she told him lets keep it at 'associates'.
 

Good Morning Y'all,

Thanks so much for your very kind words.

Ana G:

I too wonder why Ahole is getting away with so much. Basta! Lupe could take him. I'm surprised she hasn't kicked his butt, taken the keys, grabbed Emi and gotten the hell out of there. But then again, Ahole would go straight to that judge, claim spousal abuse and get custody of Emi. I want Ahole to get the biggest know anvil of all time.

Jarifa:

Thank you so much about the Carm and Chuy convo. How very sad. The whole scene was sad. Carm's face all full of hope and then the sadness. It was like a non physical slap. So very sad.

Marta:

Thanks so much about the Saul and MA convo. So it was MA that scooped up those shares, good for him! Oh, I agree with you about Ahole not getting anything. Good! I hope he never sees a dime from anything! You are right about all that money going from the RP account. But MA never really cared about the money. I bet his juice bidnez is doing really well. You know I always leave out the really good part of the avances so you get to tell it : ) I can't wait for that scene.
 

I hated that look on Vilma's face. I thought she would have ratted out Ahole by know. She's been in the joint now for awhile. Que the heck is wrong with her? I really thought she had listened to MA the other day when she gave him that clue about the mysterious book of numbers! I really hope they show Vilma's trial before this is all over.
 

I also saw a preview of scenes from the rest of the show through the finale and all I can say is fasten your seatbelts, it will be a wild roller coaster ride...
 

Marta:

Oh, I can't wait! That will be awesome.
 

Thanks Madelaine, at least your recap wasn't a waste of time like this episode was. Filler, filler, filler.

Shame on Isela knowing what Alejo did and keeping quiet. She's one of the worst characters on this show.
 

Cathyx

Thank you so kindly. You know who I have the problem with? Emi! Why did he take that whole scene in with the lying liar that lies? I get he thinks his Papa is a "saint" but still he knows Lupe and MA, Lupe never kept it a secret she liked MA, until recently that is. MA went out on a limb for him. I hope Emi is starting to get a clue. Especially about being locked in that is the biggest clue, no matter what Ahole said.

All Isela cares about is the price tag, but she better watch her back. Mini was right, to her mind if Ahole did kill Dona Mati then he is capable of doing much worse.
 

I can excuse Emi's behavior. He's a kid, they're easily manipulated, they're selfish, I know, I have one, and he really wants his parents to live together with him, most kids do want that. And kids his age don't take in anyone else's feelings into account. I'm not trying to be mean about Emi or children in general, they just are like that. They usually, (hopefully) outgrow that and Emi will too unless he continues being under Alejo's influence.

When Mini was married to Alejo, Isela always referred to Minnie and Alejo's marriage as our marriage. And the money was always our money. Now that Isela was the one to have the marriage and money, all of a sudden it's Isela's money, not our money. I look forward to her being poor and needing to work for a living.

 

Cathyx:

You are so right about Emi. It's true what you said. I just wish he would see Ahole do something really mean to someone while Emi is watching and Ahole doesn't know it. I want Emi to see Ahole as he really is, and not the made up version he is feeding Emi.
 

Thanks in advance, Mads! I won't have time to read the recap till much later today, but I LOVE the earworm!!
 

Not a good night for some people hoping their loved ones were into them, first Carm and Chuy - felt so bad for her and then DA and Leo with the good friendship.

Emilhole has crossed over to the dark side, He even manages to get that same sneering look on his face that Ahole has. He even used it with Lupe. With only three and a half hours to go this brat is going to have to have a mighty epiphany to make me care a whit about him. I too think he called papa. He had that smug look on his face.

Love the idea of some foundation where a big donor comes in and decided who the president would be. I guess that Harpy Foundation isn't a democracy.

Perla is a twit. Nominating Frieda who is cuter than she is and has some kind of personality. I actually think it would be a good thing if Perla did not win the Queen title since she would surely be insufferable if she did.
 

Julie:

Thanks, and I'm glad you like the earworm.

Decie:

Yeah that Foundation isnt' much of a democracy. I'm just glad Isela didn't get it. Ana Chofis meh but she'd be better than Isela. About Perla, maybe she's thinking since Frida is now preggers, she couldn't possibly win. We'll have to see. I think it would be a hoot if Frida wins.
 

Emi really cares about only a few people ... his mom, his dad, his abuela and himself... so if he is going to get his eyes opened suddenly it will have to be about A-hole hurting either his mom or the news that A-hole killed his abuela... that would definitely shake his image of his dad... not MA, not even Lupe telling him anything... he has to see or hear something directly from A-hole
 

Madelaine, I'm pretty sure we will before this is done. Too bad we'll probably have to wait until the last 15 minutes of the ender to see it though.
 

Thanks, Madelaine, for the helpful recap of a very frustrating episode.
And we have only three hours left? It's going to take some fast talking and some dramatic revelations to show Ahole's true colors. Right now were still at "Oh, noes, all is lost!"

The band did sound better. If they play at the festival, maybe that will be their big break. Perla's nomination of Frida for queen may backfire if the fresa wins.

Hooray for Carmelita! Rita helped her see that she deserves something great, so she didn't settle for Chuy's half-hearted proposal.

It was good to see Leo and Nepo reach an accord, sort of.

Oyuki deserves an award or a new job for suffering fools with patience. She never complains at the horrible way they treat her.

Emi=unspeakable little brat. Needs his own anvil.
 

Marta:

Too true about Emi.

Cathyx:

Oh, noes not the last fifteen minutes. I'm really hoping it is before then.

La Paloma:

Thank you most kindly. I am with you about Oyuki, the poor thing. I wonder if she would be able to get out of there, she'd go. How is the food getting to that house? The poor thing probably can't even go to the market.She had the most freedom when Isela and Mini lived there. Oh, wouldn't that be a hoot if Perla's little thingy went haywire and Frida won?
 

Yes, I think Perla entered Frida's name to embarrass her. She has never liked Frida and this is her sneaky, passive-aggressive way of showing it. Like others, I hope it backfires.
 

But what exactly is it Perla is expecting to happen? is she going to shout out that Frida is preggers and the contest is only for young virgin girls?? what does Perla have against Frida to knock her off? the neighbor votes? is she expecting to win by votes and thus humilliate Frida?
 

one question... does Vilma deserve more jail time than she has had already?
i would say let her go... but legally she might be more liable than that unless MA helps her get arrangements for freedom in exchange for cooperation/testimony.
 

Thanks, Madelaine!

I haven't seen the show lately, but looking forward to catching up based on the recaps. I can't believe they STILL haven't nailed Ahole to the wall! Get on it, people! Lupita should be doing more to figure out how to turn the tables on him. She seems to have turned into a limp dishrag since he threatened to take Emiliano away. I wish she would let Emil know how bad his father is. She doesn't have to say anything. Just quit sending the kid away when anything's going down, and Ahole's words and actions will do the job.

Baffled on why Perlita would enter Frida and potentially decrease her own chances of winning. Won't Frida just say "I didn't enter this contest" and refuse to do it? I like the idea of Frida beating Perla, except that I don't really like the idea of the European look being so heavily favored and I don't need to see MORE perpetuation of that. So I hope some other girl, someone smart and with more going on than trying to look pretty, from La Nopalera takes the title over airheaded Perla. And then maybe Tomas can fall in love with that other girl.

Glad Carmelita isn't settling for crumbs.
 

Marta, Vilma aided Alejo in his crimes of fraud and money laundering, stealing from MA and the company. And I doubt Alejo would have been smart enough to do all that by himself. She gave him advise on how to keep MA in jail and was present when he dropped Mati off on the streets. So I say she deserves a very long sentence too.
 

I think Vilma deserves a long sentence, but I would be satisfied if she got a lighter sentence in return for helping get Ahole convicted and locked up for life.
 

I agree that Perla is a twit. But I tend to see her through Tomas' vision as an adorable twit. I also think she's gorgeous and could win the crown if it was just based on looks. But I am also sure she won't win.
 

Am I wrong to want Alejo dead? I know this is a comedy, but I don't want to imagine him continuing to ruin Emiliano from prison. Besides, if he dies soon, won't Lupe get his money/shares? That works for me. (Should I be ashamed?)
 

Perla's a BRAT.
 

Like I said earlier, Emi reminds me of Aranza from PSMA.

Spoiled, arrogant and downright hostile towards people.

I want him to find out that his "Percent Father" killed Dona Mati.
 

Ahole is the wealthy version of Feo from PSMA: only smarter.

If he really want to torment Lupe, he could've killed her father and bragged about it to her face.
 

I know I'm a little late but I have to say the earworm is perfect for Vilma.
