Mí Corazon #142 -- Compromising Contrition
Labels: mcet
Loved the whole Yolanda visit from the apology to the hand buzzerds. I especially enjoyed her not missing the opportunity for "una tequiita". Interesting that Ana thinks that they may get her to help "frenar la tarántula" " put the brakes on the tarantula--Isabella.
If this were not a comedy, Jennifer would have should have kicked Johnny to the curb after his Isabella adventure where he was literally powerless in the face of her growly lust for him.
So, Angel describes his feelings for Ana as platonic. Sure.
I liked Soledad telling Ana it was 2015 because Ana still has not told Fernando the truth. Sad to hear Ana just put it off some more as she blah blahed.
On we go and all we know is that we are one episode closer to Ana's secret being revealed. Has to hapoen sometime before now and the end, right? Too funny.

A: Fernandooooo, com wit mi.. Nid tu tok!
(and his facial expression at hearing this right before he excused himself with Yomama and followed Ana to library/study).
then Ana pronouncing Alright as 'Owl-rite' and Fernando correcting her again ... too funny.(good thing Ana does not find his constantly correcting her annoying, some people i know would)
There was some misnumbering this week; last night's ep was #142.
On another note IsaBitch is a friggin Amazon isn't she? I saw her in "I love John Querendon" years ago. No wonder she married Santamarina, they look normal together since he is the size of an NFL lineman. Liked the instant black eye. :-)
So Ana has refined her plan, now its a film and a prayer.
It's no surprise Jenny rolled over, Ana was still begging Juan after he cheated and he had both Dana and Edna and they both knew. What a stud.

It's high time we give up the hijinx. Has anybody seen the "últimas semanas" notification appear on screen yet?
I can get it in tonight if noone else has. I do remember she did tell little DN that he was in good hands (with Ana) just as she was leaving.
Loved watching Ramona pray for Yomama. I think she is en route to redemption but can't fault Ana and the Lascurains for being suspicious.
Laura made a total fool of herself in Leon's office. Glad to see Leon in a jacket with long sleeves.
I agree about the hijinx. How impolite to shock a guest in that way, even if the guest is La Bruja Mayor. And neither Fernando nor Ana reacts as a parent should.
Nando looks quite cute but I, too, want him to put on his glasses. It's not a question of him looking more intellectual, as per Lenin, but just that he looks like he can't quite see! The actor has captured exactly what it feels like to wear contacts for the first time.
Fanny should forget about her suitors and her friends and go do her homework! Nothing is breaking quite right for her and her whole life lies ahead of her. It has all been said by so many of us!
I was trying to think about how differently the Ana part might have been played and still be effective. A little less screaming, a little more logic and concentration, the same love for the children? Would that have been possible or even believable?
First Fanny, tells it like it is and refuses to be placed in the middle with her friends and brother, it their issue to resolve. Now she refuses to chose sides when both girls know of her friendship with the other, awesome and mature thinking. If she is consistent, when Ana asks her for help in the deception of her father, she should say no.
I don't think it fair to Fanny, keeping Ana's secret has made her choose over her father and really crosses a boundary asking for assistance cleaning up the mess.
I give Soledad points for at least bringing up to Ana her promise, though it was brushed aside again. She had hours long conversations with both Angel & Magda, wished Soledad would have pressed a bit more forcefully.
LOVED seeing Jen slug Isabitch; it was long overdue. The black eye thing was right on the money.
But Johnny is still immature. And what's with Enfrique? I don't believe he's out of the story.
The twins and Luz should be disciplined for the hand buzzer thing. Yomama is an old woman no matter what she's done. She won't retaliate, but these kids need to know that this wasn't the right thing to do here.
Both Ximena and Edith need to grow up with their ridiculous jealousies. We also know now that anything Nando is into will be way over Ximena's head.

ITA that Fanny has forgotten homework comes first if you're gonna waste Daddy's dolares. Of course that is totally beyond her universe, tho' not that of the others she currently hangs with at Pub U. Leon also has a much greater understanding of what it takes to get a degree, let alone one with honors!! Especially with a kid and a job taking most of his waking hours.
What a stupid, ungrateful disds and ditch the other day. I really felt sorry for Leon.
Yolanda says "you gave me a shock! (toque) " and then goes on to tell them that at the cantinas there is a guy that goes around saying "toques, toques, toques." Then you grab two tubes or cylinders and he raises the voltage. It really gets funny when everybody grabs each other and the electricity passes through everyone until you tell him to take the voltage down a bit. Then you can free yourself. So the Lacuráin kids and Fernando try the toque trick. It was funny.

I do agree that Nando is not yet comfortable with his new image. I also suspect that contacts are a bit uncomfortable at first. I've never needed them; I'm still on off-the-rack reading glasses because both sets of parental DNA had great vision included. I don't mind wearing reading glasses, but it still feels like I've lost bragging rights about vision...
Maybe Nando should start telling Fanny she needs to pay more attention to her homework. I don't think that the public University costs much (if anything, per Teresa) but I doubt she wants to end up on Double Secret Probation (per National Lampoon's Animal House).
Yomama needs to come clean about destroying the twins' notebooks. And while she's at it ratting out her evil daughter. With proof, if there is any.
Tofie, I could not agree more on Ana asking Fanny to help her with Dorofeo. Totally over the line and over the state border if you ask me. And if Fernando finds out, it will be ONE MAJOR point against Ana, to put HIS kids in eopardy to solve HER situation.
Thanks, Jarifa for the 'toques' lines.
First, enough with the pranks. At this point, this is getting to be obsessive behavior with the kids. In the real world, which Osorio claimed he was trying to reach out to his young audience, this should be addressed by the parent or adults way better than we see here. This won't just magically stop just because they get older and they are implanting a belief that mom or dad will always snigger on the side and bail them out or the punishments will be half-baked.
As for Fanny...hurrah!! I had the exact same situation being pulled between two friends once, and no matter what they say, there really is intent by the two people to make the poor person caught in the middle take the side of one over the other, even when it's not their business. I basically let them have it too and that scene just made me smile.
As for the young professional,Leon is still showing all in with Laura to those around him. Not like he told her to stop kissing or seemed embarrassed. Sure, don't like what she said to the boss, but he's no saint in all this. I know I know...he and Fanny are most likely end game and I have to just suck it up. I just don't like him that much anymore and I use to love the guys at the start of this.
Don't like Magda. I'd rather see Angel wind up with no one and or right at the end meet someone really wonderful than be stuck with her. Just something about the character just rubs me wrong.
I can't on Johny and Jen no matter how they are writing him now. I just keep feeling like she's always going to be dealing with his goof ups, his schemes, the flirting, the begging for forgiveness...in Osorio's world, I guess she will have the consolation of a baby. Move to the U.S. Jen, you can do single parent adoption.
From the preview, I'll be doing my signature "Head Desk" when Ana confronts Doro. Why she thinks this will work is beyond me.

I'm not a huge fan of Nando's new look. I approve of relaxing the hair and clothes instead of the uptight slicked look, but his hair is now too sticky-uppy and with the popped open collar, he's verging into the "sleazy jerk" look. Put the silly collar down. Also I don't know why he needs contacts. He just looks uncomfortable. There is nothing wrong with glasses; maybe he should have just gotten some stylish new frames.
Poor Jen must be SO DESPERATE for a baby to put up with Johnny. I couldn't believe she was smooching him after catching him with Isa like that. Sure, Isa was doing some aggressive seducing, but he didn't exactly resist, and we know that whatever else he lacks (EVERYTHING), he has enough muscle to push her away.
It's too bad Edith isn't a little older and Angel a little younger. I want her to be happy, but Nando isn't really that great a catch for her. He's only 17. She could use someone a little more mature, who can distinguish between love and whatever tortured nonsense Nando has had going on with Ximena.
I do agree that Nando is not yet comfortable with his new image. I also suspect that contacts are a bit uncomfortable at first. I've never needed them; I'm still on off-the-rack reading glasses because both sets of parental DNA had great vision included.

Yomama needs to come clean about destroying the twins' notebooks. And while she's at it ratting out her evil daughter. With proof, if there is any.
If Yomama no longer wants to live with Isa... then why still keep Isa's secret from Fernando about the baby daddy identity? because she does not want to harm Isa either? so she is wishy washy??
there is really no proof about the notebooks of the clones... does Yomama know it was Isa who hurt Sebastian? I am sure she did since she was right behind Isa when Isa learned that Sebas did compete and she saw Isa's reaction.
What else does Yomama know about Isa that Ana and Fernando don't even suspect yet?
The relationships in this TN have been so frustrating, disturbing and annoying. I liked Leon at first but when we found out he has a kid, that killed it for me. Fanny is just too young for that. Leon's freak out after his marriage proposal was turned down really made me dislike him completely. I'm team Lenin or team no bf for Fanny, she needs to focus on school.
Then there's Nando. Ugh. Edith seems like an excellent match for him, she's intellectual, into the same things, she's unique like Nando and we think we've gotten rid of Ximena and she has to come back. I have never liked her character. At the start of this TN she was the bitchy, spoiled, bimbo, rich girl, telling Fanny not to date Leon cause he's poor and Laura was the understanding friend. What happened? She's still the same girl to me. I really hope Nando comes to his senses and sees that he will be happier with Edith. I'm also with those of you that think Edith is better off with someone else, Lenin perhaps? But of course that would mean Fanny and Leon end up together. :( As for the rest: Jen and Johnny= blegh, Isa and Johnny= meh, Magda and Angel = who gives an F?, and Fernando and Ana = come clean and get married already.
I also think she needs to actually move out of Isa's place before revealing that DN is Enfrique's baby.
Absolute gem, Lily!
Lilly, love your last line 'as for the rest:...' ITA. I want the kids to end up alone, esp Nando and Alicia... they are just not old enough and not mature enough to really know... and i would piggy back Fanny there too, but per the credits we have no chance of her and Leon not ending together.
Nando does need room to grow. He hasn't even started college yet! But girls a couple of years older will pursue him because he's smart and has a rich dad. No better prediction than that for a good future.
No matter; she won't succeed. Perla might have her eye on Leon for herself, but I think Fanny will take him back at the end.
Could you imagine Laura as stepmother to Mauricio? I can't.
I had begun to think Laura worked at the bean factory as she was there all the time wearing a badge. Apparently she was just a visitor. Little bitch is nervie isn't she? Hanging out at your "boyfriend's" work all day every day. Then getting in his boss' face to not get any romantic ideas....WOW. Thank You Perla. Youshould have called security and had her removed.
