Caray, Caray!

After 30 + years, Paco still bitter?

I already knew Octavio (Greta's late husband) was NOT the choir boy that everyone thinks.

PS: Go 49ers Go !
 

Thanks, Cynderella for the fab recap! "Act of necrophilia" and "Star Trek Next Generation" were perfect!

Very dissatisfying episode!

The dreaded "malentendido" (misunderstanding) rearing its ugly head and Sofía not taking the time to ask Chava about what she heard with Aracely was too much. So, the solution is to run to Patricio and push up the wedding date????? Does she need a guy that badly? Stupidity reigns!

Then there was Manolo who didn't take Alan as the rest of the payment he failed to make. I was hoping he was a goner but no such luck.

Then there was the play. Cynderella said it all on that one.

Oh, and forever bitter Paco. Maybe someone can just put him out of his misery already. Is Manolo still around? Lupe needs to run fast and far. First "happy eye" womanizer Javier and now Paco? What could have she done to deserve such punishment?

In the avances, of course, now we have the stolen necklace with Patricio more than happy to blame Chava. What a gift Alan and clueless Alexa have given him.

I had some hope in Fausto being the voice of reason until I saw him participating in the play. There is no hope.

Cynderella, another sensational recap. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it - you had me grinning from ear to ear. Loved it.

Great title. "Who loves their lawyer? I certainly don't"; "Methinks that he’ll definitely be a selfish lover to her. Poor girl"; "Pleasantness annoys him" and "(LIAR! Allan doesn’t wear pants" were inspired.

However, my hands down favorite was "After practically committing an act of necrophilia in his office" which had me laughing out loud.

I kept looking at Sophia sporting that very odd navy jumpsuit and thinking that it looked somewhat familiar. Thank you for “Sophia, wearing a Star Trek Next Generation, uniform”. As usual, you nailed it.

Sophia alternates between being an intelligent businesswoman, to an awkward teenager who is completely out of her depth, having no concept of what an adult romantic relationship should be. After seeing her true love with an old flame and catching merely a snippet of their conversation, she literally runs into Pato's arms. She clearly can barely stand his touch or his kisses. Yes, that makes sense. Not.

I loved the scene where "Both father and son are lusting after Alexa when Greta enters the room". She seemed ready to start in when Nandito stopped her in her tracks with childish, winsome and very real flattery.

Seeing Alexa and Nandito together certainly seems very comfortable and one of the few times she has really seemed happy.

I do not see Paco and Lupe together at all. I think they are good friends and hope they stay that way. I like her with the detective better. I would like to see Paco and Greta together to see if their past might be revived.

I don't really care about Lucas. Is that wrong?

So will Alexa cave and tell the truth about the necklace?

Jarifa, "Then there was Manolo who didn't take Alan as the rest of the payment he failed to make. I was hoping he was a goner but no such luck". HA! Yes, totally agree. What a wasted opportunity...

Diana
 

Of course, Chava will be the fall guy. He's the punching bag on everything!

On Y&R: everyone hates Sharon.

It's likely Victor Newman (my wife's favorite character) will expose her big secret and everyone will ban her forever!

GH: Elizabeth is the punching bag too. She can't catch a break.

Days: the Bradys.
 

Diana, I don't care about Lucas either. Never liked him, still don't.

Great recap, Cynderella. This made me chuckle... a lot...:

"Pleasantness annoys him."

Did anyone else feel their heart drop as all those chocolates hit the floor? Of course I'd have invoked the 5 second rule.

Wow, Sofía is not nearly as firmly centered as I thought. Chava hugs his lawyer (who hasn't hugged their lawyer?) and she's suddenly ready to marry someone she can't trust nor barely stand to be around? Doesn't this seem like something that Greta would do? Now I guess that Chava will feel the need to ask Aracely to marry him.

I liked the little play. My favorite couple is now Nandito and Alexa, they have great chemistry.

Carlos
 

Carlos "My favorite couple is now Nandito and Alexa, they have great chemistry".

Yes, I totally agree. Nandito is a little charmer, natural and unaffected. He could make the coldest heart melt. Perhaps he should spend more time with his great uncle Paco...

Cynderella. – Hysterically funny recap and cute title. My favorites:

Sophia, wearing a Star Trek Next Generation, uniform

Let me just add that after watching the play, I can see why Alexa’s acting career is non-existent.

He immediately asks her to leave because he has felt and spread way to much joy for one day. His brain hurts and now he needs a nap.

Why Lupe would even think about getting involved with a man that would throw chocolates on the floor and then let her clean it up is beyond me.

I’m not a Lucas fan, but he has done nothing to lead on Marisol. That she would cook for him is just nuts.

Let’s see, whom am I happy with in this TN? Chava – He has stayed true to his feelings. He set Araceli straight and he no doubt will try to figure out why Sophia is marrying Pato when it’s clear she doesn’t love him, much less like him.

I’m liking Detective Fuzzy too, and I don’t think he just happened to wander into Lupe. Hope he makes a move on her soon.

The play was silly, but proud papa Fernando and little Nandito were cute.
 

Cynderella:

I missed this last night, but with this marvelous recap I feel I hven't missed athing. Everytime I see that Nandito has spent time with Alexa Nantito calls her the big child too cute.
 

Look on the bright side: by TN version of Catholic law, if Pato has a church wedding (what else) with Sophia, we can safely move on to pleasant speculation about when and how nasty his death will be.
 

Anon, Paco needs to GET OVER his bitterness towards Greta.

She's moved on and so should he.


 

Sofia crying a lot when she kissed Patrick.

I can't imagine what the honeymoon will be like when she cries while the 2 are having sex.
 

Cynderella, I love your recaps! They are always so funny. I really laughed at the part about Pato being a selfish lover. So true!

Conservative Dem, Greta has not moved on. She is not over Paco.

I'm not keen on Lucas but in his defense, he is not leading Marisol on. He has already told her - several times - that he has a girlfriend. Marisol sees a bit of trouble between Lucas and Dani and is trying to take advantage of it. She's wants him to break up with Dani and cooking for him is part of the plan.

I don't see Lupe and Paco ending up together.
 

Can we go ahead and make Marisol an Antagonist already ?

She's going to be responsible for busting up Dani & Lucas.
