La Malquerida #44, 10/23/14: Luisa Nearly Gets Kissed; Acacia Goes All the Way; Perla Gets Whupped
Mexico Episode #49
-Danilo says the woman who came to the wedding with him isn’t
his wife, just a girlfriend. After Ale ran away and he couldn’t find her, he
tried to get on with his life and started to date this woman. But she always
knew he couldn’t love her like Ale. And when he found Ale again, he ended
things with that woman. In any case, Este and Cris say Ale is coming home with
them.
-Luisa chooses to speak with Manuel and sends Arturo to wait
for her in the kitchen. She gets all flirty with Manuel, and is flattered that
he seems to be jealous of Art. Her smile soon turns into a frown, when Manuel
states what he wants—info on Acacia and Uli. Luisa realizes what a dope she
was and tells him off. She goes to the kitchen and finds that Art has taken off.
She calls and asks him to come back, but Art is no fool. He’ll see her later at
their appointed time to cook for their event. He knows how not to mix business
and personal life. Luisa is clearly disappointed. Rosa wonders if she got
gussied up for Art. Rosa thinks he’s a nice boy, but she wants Luisa to be
careful in any case. Later, at Uli’s house, Luisa arrives with a peace offering
of a gelatin cake, but Art remains all business. He gives her a cool apron with
their company logo, but he says it’s just their uniform. However, once they start
bumping into each other as they cook in Uli’s small living/dining room, he
drops the attitude and the anger, and gets back to his old self. He puts on
music, takes Luisa into his arms, brushes a stray hair away, looks deep into
Luisa’s eyes, and…her phone rings! It’s Rosa checking up on her. That woman has
some sort of spidey sense!
-German takes the opportunity to kiss sleeping Ale in the cemetery.
Dan is not happy. The chest thumping between the two continue when they all
arrive at Benavente. They both want to give the doctor orders about how to look
after Ale. German still insists on paying for part of Ale’s mom’s funeral. Dan
states his rights to make decisions for Ale as her FIANCE. Este gets between
them and gives them marching orders. Dan WILL sign the agreement the growers
came to in the meeting. German and Ale WILL return to work at the Association—tough
noogies if Dan isn’t in agreement. It’s Ale’s decision.
-Acacia finally starts asking Ale some tough questions about
how Dan fits into her life story. This is Ale’s ball of lies: Dan met her when
she was in the brothel. He came there to get over the loss of his mother, but
he and Ale never had sex. He just came there to talk to someone. They fell in
love, but she was still never able to make love to him because of her trauma.
They got engaged. He helped her escape, and that’s when Acacia met her. Danilo
supported the lie about her dad being the one to abuse her because he knows how
ashamed she is to talk about her past in the brothel. Acacia points out that
she must love German more than she loves Danilo since she was able to make love
to German. Ale mysteriously says that the magic of Danilo is that he knows the “real
Alejandra.” Acacia says the real Alejandra is the one they all know and love,
and she is sure that German would not abandon her if he knew the whole truth
about her past. They are interrupted by Cris and the doctor. Ale has Acacia
stay for the exam.
-In the living room, Este takes Cris aside and asks if the
card that came with the wedding gift from Danilo said it was from him and his
wife (esposa) or his woman (mujer*)? Cris believes it said mujer. On cue, Perla
comes barreling in looking for Dan. He turns white. But then he has her affirm
in front of everyone that there is no longer anything between them, right?
Perla, oops, Adelmira, affirms this and slinks out of the hacienda.
-The doctor tells them all that he found Ale to be very
anxious and he gave her a sedative. He wants her to come to the hospital
tomorrow so that he can run tests and be sure she isn’t anemic. He prohibits
Dan from going into the room to see her. Thank you, Doc! He will also recommend
a therapist for her. Dan sweats bullets. Cris and Este send German and Danilo
home. Before he leaves, Dan checks in with Rubio and updates him on his status
as Ale’s fiancé. Dan’s mad that Rubio allowed Perla to enter the hacienda. Rubio
is willing to do whatever Dan bids.
-Perla brings Julianita food. Julianita begs to
finally be let out. She’s learned her lesson. Perla is too nervous and jittery
to really listen. In walks Danilo. No words need to be spoken. Perla cowers in
fear and grovels at Dan’s feet. Then she crawls to a corner and her cries can
be heard as Dan’s cane comes down on her repeatedly. Julianita’s face reflects
the horror of the scene.
-Acacia speaks to Cris about Ale. They both think Ale is
confused and suffering from grief and her abusive past. Acacia tells Cris about
how Ale was only ever able to make love to German, which must mean she loves
him more than Dan. Acacia doesn’t want Cris to judge Ale badly. Cris of course
doesn’t. These things happen, and it’s up to each person to know when the right
time is.
-At home, Manuel continues to sulk about Acacia, and also
about Luisa. He has dinner with Juliana and Norberto, and they are their usual
happy selves. Manuel wonders why German can’t come home if he’s going to be
working at the Association again. Norb says because Este is the boss at the
Association, but HE is the boss in their home! Manuel throws a hissy fit when
the maid brings him his favorite chicken, which he can’t cut with one hand.
Norb shows him how to eat like a caveman with pride. Juliana tries to cut up
his food for him. I’m surprised she didn’t chew and regurgitate it for him.
Manuel acts like a five year old by throwing a tantrum and yelling that he’s
not a five year old!
-Uli meets up with Carmen and Andres, who are canoodling at
an outdoor café. Andres says that Carmen doesn’t have to keep working if she
doesn’t want to. She loves to work, plus she needs income to pay the mortgage.
They have also agreed to keep their debts separate. Andres wonders how much of
her mortgage is left to pay. She explains that they only recently mortgaged the
house to give Uli capital for his project. Uli comes with a check for the
monthly mortgage payment. Andres emphasizes to Uli what he just said to Carmen. If he ever
needs financial help, or advice or a friend, he’ll be there for him. All Uli
wants is for Andres to take care of his mom and treat her well.
-At the construction site, Nuria brags some more about all
the sales she’s making. Uli congratulates her on being such a great
salesperson, but eyes her suspiciously. She says she’s sold over 70% of the
plots, but he knows he hasn’t signed that many contracts. Where are the
contracts she promised to show him? Nuria gets nervous. She says she came to
his office with them, but since he wasn’t there, and he won’t give her the keys
to his drawers, she didn’t want to leave them out in the open on his desk. She
offers to bring them to his house that evening to review, if his girlfriend won’t
mind.
-Uli’s next stop is Benavente. He gets the update on Ale
from Acacia. They smooch and cuddle on the couch and bait anvils by speaking
about how happy they are and how they have no problems. Este creeps in the
background and watches them smooch for a bit, before going into the office to
join Cris. Cris is still really affected by the death of Ale’s mom and asks
Este to be a father to Acacia if anything happens to her. Este gets agitated
and says that Acacia doesn’t see him as a father! She’s already made clear that
no one can take Alonso’s place. Plus, Juan Carlos is the one she sees as a
second father. Cris points out that there’s a great age difference between
Acacia and JC. While with Este, Acacia and he get along so well and understand each
other. Este quickly changes the subject.
-Meanwhile, at the swimming hole, Acacia and Uli are getting
hot and heavy. Acacia says how much she loves him and how much she’ll miss him
when she goes off to university in San Jacinto in a few months. Uli says that
by then he’ll be done with his project and back in San Jacinto. They vow their
eternal love, and the petting gets heavier. Acacia pauses the action to say
they need to be responsible, and Uli says he would never do anything to put her
at risk. (i.e. Don’t worry. I’ve got Trojans in my wallet, baby.) The clothes
come off. Nature takes its course. Viewerville is happy that this is not one of the days Este chose to
stalk the Bikini Goddess at her swimming hole.
*mujer- Literally, woman. Often used interchangeably with wife/esposa.
Implies the woman with whom you have a serious relationship, and with whom you
have sex.
Avances: Rubio gets orders to take care of Uli. Uh oh! Este plays the, "not tonight honey, I have a headache card" with Cris.

Hi Vivi, I been reading abd enjoying your recaps immensely. I commented two times long lengthy comments and twice disappeared. So frustrated was I, that i vowwed not to waste time and effort for it to disappear. Dont even know if this will go through. i am sickened at what happened to Perla. Even begire he struck her to see her grovel at his feet was really horrible. She was so scared, I bet she didnt even realize what she was doing. It disturbed me very much. Ale will probably be pregnant by German but I have a feeling she will say its the devils baby. One glitch is she told Aca she never slept w Danilo. Gosh, I hate him so.
Wow my comment didnt disappear. You slways give the mexicsn epi number, do you have a way of watching mexican version, if you dont mind me asking. Thx
Novella lover- I'm so glad you were finally able to post. I saw someone else write that they also had trouble posting a comment on the blog yesterday.
I felt so bad for Perla. She only went to the hacienda because she was worried about Dan since he never came home and wasn't answering his phone. She had no idea she was risking his con of being Ale's fiance. I hate Dan more with every episode.
There are usually a few places you can find the episodes online if you google. Not all sites are safe though, and Uni usually like a to make those sites take down vids of their first run shows, so we usually don't advertise them here. But I add the real capitulo numbers because I know people in other countries and people years from now will read these recaps and need the real capitulo numbers to follow along.

Thank you, Vivi, this has been great! I especially liked your comment about Estebone choosing a good day not to stalk his lovely obsession.
I'm relieved that Acacia's first time is with Ulises, even if I find them extremely boring together. If she ever hooks up with Este, how nasty would it be if it were her first time?

I loved the recap Vivi. Sensitive, stylish and sentimental.
Vivi thank you for lightening the dark, dank mood with one of the most charming scenes of the night where Art takes "Luisa into his arms, brushes a stray hair away, looks deep into Luisa’s eyes, and…her phone rings! It’s Rosa checking up on her. That woman has some sort of spidey sense!".
Arturo was clearly hurt by Luisa and I like that he took a more formal stance but then inevitably relented and reverted back to his wonderful, kind self. He is a dream boat. If I were younger, I would be salivating.
"Luisa Nearly Gets Kissed" is the thread that is giving us hope amidst the palpable despair. I am fervently hoping Luisa has learned her lesson. But will she go running, heart aflutter the next time Manuel gives her a smile or any words she again misconstrues to mean they mean something??
Other favorites included "bait anvils" and "Juliana tries to cut up his food for him. I’m surprised she didn’t chew and regurgitate it for him" which had me smiling away.
I am a Uli fan. It seems he has so much heart, yet between Este's obsession and Nuria's machinations, I fear for him, especially with what the previews show.
I am having a very difficult time believing Cris and Este are falling for Danilo's lies. His obsequious demeanor and oily countenance should be alarming, not reassuring. Ale has been living there for some time, and it is obvious she loves German. And now they are going to believe she and DanEvil are in love?? Please!
Cris seems to want to believe people are inherently good, but her radar should be signaling something is off. Way off. And as others have said, I am glad Este is here if for no other purpose than to keep Dan in check.
I was thoroughly confused as to why Perla showed up...How could she be so deluded to think any good could come of her looking for him? You could sense Dan's barely contained anger.
Seeing Perla prostrate herself, trying to crawl yet knowing she was going to get beaten was horrid. Sabine Moussier is breaking my heart.
Novella Lover, I sadly agree that if Ale is pregnant, she will likely say it is Danilo's. She would never jeopardize her child.
Vivi, thank you for another beautifully crafted summary.
Sending you virtual hugs.

Thanks Adriana and Diana!
Adriana- I really hope that Este and Acacia never go that far, but I too am relieved that her first time is with Uli. How will Este react when he finds out?
Diana- I just don't understand why Luisa keeps pining for useless Manuel, when she could have Arturo. Gah!

Vivi, thanks for this excellent recap of a dark and stormy episode. Damn is really having to think fast on his feet to keep spinning out his tale to hang on to Ale. He creeps me out. Ugh ugh ugh

As for Luisa's obsession with Manuel, I think that he was her first love, and a first love is hard to forget. Luisa has been crushing on him since they were kids , and what a fool believes, she sees. (Shout out to our dear Mads and The Doobie Brothers.)

Absolutely! I think we are all in agreement we are glad Este is here. At least in this regard ;)

Susanlynn- Absolutely! It's nice to see Este scowling at someone other than Acacia or a man trying to get close to Acacia or Cris, for a change. I wouldn't mind if he puts all his efforts into keeping Dan in check.
Great Vivi, just great!
I really enjoyed---Luisa realizes what a dope she was and tells him off. WOW! She finally got the message and I hope that the message stays with her.
So Nuria would be willing to bring the contracts over to Uli's house----TROUBLE AHEAD
No Esteban was not stalking the bikini goddess at the swimming hole this time but he was at the hacienda.
Ok---I put it off up to now but I can't stall any longer. I don't even like to think about DanEvil.
Satan has a golden tongue. I said that he was slick before but he is more than just slick. Our Mr. Psycho is evil in human form. I'm not a Perla fan but---OMG! If tonight's episode shows Perla with just a little red mark somewhere on her skin I will really be angry at Televisa. Perla should be in the hospital for a few days after that beating. Why didn't Julianita run away when the beating was taking place? Ale needs one witness to testify against DiabloDan, she should have two now.
DiabloDan and Esteboo---thanks Susanlynn.
There was so much darkness last night. Thank you Arturo and Luisa for a little sunlight.

Just back from the preschool Halloween party , so I am catching up on the new comments. This novela is amazing. I have no idea what will happen next, but I do not think that Diablo will make it to prison because he is too evil to live. I need someone to,use that wicked cane on him...maybe his drug partner.

I forgot to mention earlier that Hector is now in the first group of actors in the opening credits.
I'm hoping that not only does this signify his place among the lead actors, but that it means more screen time and a promotion to possible lead galan (well, behind German and Arturo that is :) )
Also, where has Memo been? I think he will be enraged when he sees Perla, but is he man enough to stand up to Danilo??

Novella Lover,
You can watch the show on dailymotion. I actually found videos of the episodes recently. The user that I found who uploaded them has only uploaded Mexico episodes 83-104 (105 airs tonight). The user is "AriFansEcuador". If you do watch any of those episodes I suggest you watch 101 and 102. Those two episodes are pretty important and intense concerning a few characters. I won't say which characters though. I too am getting frustrated that's why I don't care to skip ahead. I am guilty of reading spoilers of other TNs. I know that probably takes the enjoyment out watching them, but I can't resist.

This is another terrific recap, Vivi, and funny! Even though it was mentioned before, I just had to re-exclaim about this line because it made me laugh out loud: “Juliana tries to cut up his food for him. I’m surprised she didn’t chew and regurgitate it for him.”
A question about capitulo numbers: Are the capitulos always 1 hour in Mexico? Are there ever shows that are just one-half hour there? In other words, when we have capitulo numbers, are they always for one-hour shows?

Vivi – Terrific recap. My faves:
Manuel acts like a five year old by throwing a tantrum and yelling that he’s not a five year old!
Viewerville is happy that this is not one of the days Este chose to stalk the Bikini Goddess at her swimming hole. Amen! I was on pins and needles.
I felt sorry for Perla even before Danilo beat her with a cane back at their place. In front of all, he was barely hiding his anger and treating Perla as if she was on a witness stand. She was clearly embarrassed and afraid. I had hope that Cris picked up on this.
I give Ulises thumbs-up on his kissing style. I think he and Acacia are cute together, when she’s not whiny/annoying. I hope it was as good for her as it was for him.

Maggie- It's most often for 1 hour shows. Some tns have been known to show half hour episodes their first week in Mexico, sharing the hour with a th in its final week. The reason the numbering is now off for this th is due to the many weeks Uni was combining one and a quarter episodes.
TF- If this were a super popular tn, Uni would have had those Dailymotion vids taken down by now. They do scan sites like this to find out where people are watching, so that's why we often don't even mention where to find the vids. Dailymotion and YouTube are the first places they scrub, so if you can find full episodes there during a first run tn, then it really means Uni doesn't care.

Gringo- I don't think this beating will convince Perla and Julianita to testify against Dan. I think it will do just the opposite. Did you see how afraid they both were?
Diana- I think Memo has been busy selling marijuana for Dan. Not much time to hang out with Perla at the brothel these days since they harvested the first crop. He's pretty terrified of Dan too.
Vivi,
I see what you're saying. Although I have found the episodes on YouTube as well but most of them are private. I guess I can see why this tn isn't mega popular.
