Mi corazon es tuyo #174 a lot of silly filler stuff... with a few cute moments... Hissabella is desperate, playing all her cards at once, and it seems she has 'the force' working AGAINST her
Lo Nuevo:
At office, Fernando is with Torres. He gets a phone call and can’t hide his excitement. He has a date for the church wedding. 28 Feb. (boy! They are rushing in MCET time!! I recall they reconciled Feb 11th!!)
Jennifer tells Ana she will try to focus on work to not think too much about what is happening with Aura.
At David’s place, Mónica, David’s wife, asks him why he brought her. He wants Jennifer and Johnny to suffer a while. He says the more they suffer the more they will pay to get Aura back.
Isabela drives to the location of ‘Las Merceditas’ and intends to run Ana over with a car to make her loose her baby. But the car starts to malfunction as Isabela tries to slam on the gas to run Ana over.
Fernando calls Ana on the cell phone to tell her they have a date for the church wedding AND he has the priest too (Padre Samuel). He even gets excited and talks like Ana ‘Si! Si! Si!’ Ana is excited.
Jumping beside the disabled car, Isa is having a tantrum because this attempt to hurt Ana ALSO failed. Some guy comes by and tells her she didn’t have antifreeze so the car motor stalled. Isa continues her tantrum swearing she hates the Lascurains and las nacas.
Back at the Manse, Fernando and Ana announce to the family, staff, Siete and dates of the older kids that there will be a church wedding soon. Fernando is using a bit strange language so it gets a bit silly. The kids get confused and suggest the new wedding is for Soledad and Nico. Soledad says ‘that doesn’t sound too bad’ (which gets a ‘say what?’ look and then a giggle from Fernando and Ana).(hey, with all the weird stuff we've seen in this novela, that is actually not THAT out of the blue... at least Nico won't have to worry about her surviving him by THAT much or wanting him to get BUSY with her ) Fernando clears up ‘no, its OUR church wedding’.
Back at her apartment, Isabela is very frustrated with herself, calling her a LOSER, ennumerates her attempts to hurt Ana and keeps eating her sorrows away (I am alone, my mom can’t stand me, the judge took my kid away, and the man i love married a servant/criada). She blames Ana for everything, she will take away everything good that Ana has now. She is to blame for Isa's situation.
At the green house, Johnny is trying to cheer Jennifer up, to no avail, she doesn’t even eat. She claims he was going to do something to get Aura back. He asks what does she want. She doesn’t know but he promised he would do something! She leaves angry and he keeps asking himself what can he do…
At David’s the baby is crying and he is nagging at Monica to get the baby quiet. She nags that they don’t have any money. She will take the baby to the neighbor to see if she can borrow from her. David asks himself how much he can ask for for Aura.
Isabela arrives at the Manse and slaps Diego, who opened the door to her. He laughs it off. She has lost custody but still has visiting rights. She tries to drop some venom to him about Fernando always taking his women from him but Diego is happy he has his family with him, she on the contrary even sent her mom away from her. He is glad she fell on his trap and believed all his lies. So beautiful, so smart… why did you waste your life like that, Isabela?
Ana tries on several wedding gowns. The girls and Soledad disapprove several… but suddenly there is one that the girls and Mama Soledad approve excitedly. Ana is confused about the one the ‘committee’ approved.Meanwhile Fernando is being measured for a tailored suit, all the boys and Diego are with him.
Johnny goes to Las Merceditas and Erika won’t give him David’s address, but Maricela does, he wants to negotiate a deal with David (money for Aura).
Sebastián is working on a new song for the wedding reception with lyrics to honor Ana.
The young kids bring a hand-made wedding invitation that they worked on to Fernando. He loves it and is sure Ana will love it too.
Fanny invites León and Mauricio to the wedding. Mau offers to help carry Ana’s train. Fanny and León get lovey-dovey talkin’ again.
Fernando and Ana talk about whether Nico will come to the wedding. Nando walks into their room and says he is confused again between Edith and Ximena. Ana is in disbelief they are back there again.
Ana gets a receipt for the purchase of the wedding gown over email. However, Isabela and Arquímides (guess they intercepted the email and) sneak in the store and fake a fire to steal Ana’s gown.
Isabela takes the wedding gown outside and sets it on fire, plans to send the ashes to the Manse.
Johnny arrives to David’s house and makes them an offer: money for Aura. He asks them how much they want. David plays the ‘decent’ dad and says Aura is not for sale. Johnny begs him to think about how much they(J&J) love Aura. Johnny leaves his phone number with David, tells him to think about it. Later Johnny goes to meet with his friend Adolfo to gather the money.
Diego delivers a wedding invitation personally to Yolanda. She will go if he will be her escort. He accepts! LOL!!!
While the lady at the bridal store finds out Ana’s wedding gown is missing, Ana receives the ashes bucket at the Manse, but she and Bruno can’t figure out what was burned.
Arquímedes finds out that Ana will hire a limo service. Arquímedes suggests to Isa that they sneak in the wedding in the limo. Isabela says they need to have several plans (A,B,C,D). Including weapons, poison.
We learn the dress Isa stole was the wrong one, Ana’s is safe in the store still. An employee confused the labels with one that was on clearance rack. Manager is angry but she sends Ana her dress asap.
Diego helps Fernando get the last touch-ups. Nico keeps encouraging Diego to find a woman that will make him happy. Fernando looks a bit nervous. Nico tells him Ana is ‘almost’ ready. Diego says that means about ½ hr.
Ana is getting her makeup finalized, Fanny is with her. Ana is really nervous too. Fernando knocks on the door. He will go ahead. (is this fair? Fernando left with Nico and Ana is left behind with all the kids… she sends the twins to check on the other girls ???)
It is a beautiful day. Somewhere in the road Hissa is nagging at Arquimides, he hides in the trunk of the limo. Hissa warns Arquimides that everything has to work as planned. He assures her it is all set up.
The limo arrives at the Manse, Ana’s dress looks nice, it is strapless lace on the top, lace and tulle at the bottom with a blingy satin belt. The limo driver is working with Arquimides, the car leaves the Manse.
Everyone is waiting at church. Alicia texts Pablo too bad you could not make it.
Jennifer rants to Johnny (who is wearing a bright royal blue suit!?!) for assuming they would have money to ‘buy’ Aura, but Johnny assures her he can do it, all she should think about is having Aura back today. Jennifer asks if he borrowed it. Yup. Jennifer gets mad at him (you haven’t learned anything!) for getting them involved with a gangster again (like Dorofeo).Johnny thinks to himself ‘gotta find another way.’
Diego, Nico and Fernando are nervous because it is late and Ana doesn’t arrive.
The limo is at the edge of a cliff. Ok, this makes NO SENSE… The driver is standing outside the limo with a very happy Hissabella who is celebrating in advance that ‘Ana will realize I won!!!’ (are Ana and Soledad knocked out inside the limo? It is obvious they are not at the church, so why aren’t they (A/S) doing anything about this?? Can’t they see Hissabella from inside the limo??

What a fun episode! Well paced and very enjoyable.
The good: Everyone's reaction to Ana's dress when she finally tried on the "right" one:#3.
Diego agreeing to be Yolanda's escort to the wedding.
The bad: Poor Juan running to the local loan shark.
The funny: Isabella wondering when it was exactly that she turned into a loser.
Looking forward to another fun one tomorrow!

“You are also the most selfish excuse for a woman I've seen in ages,” said Hera. “And that is saying a lot.”
“I'd like to strand her on a deserted island,” said Aphrodite. “Where she can't get to anyone else. Where there are no men she can try to seduce and no women to attract her poisonous envy.”
“Better to strand her in isolation among others,” said Athena. “Mortals can do that very efficiently when they are motivated.”
“Prison, then?” asked Hera.
“Yes. She has tried to kill at least three people. And an innocent dog. She is likely to try again.”
“I have doubts about the justice system in Mexico,” said Estefania. “She may try to seduce – or buy – her way out of an arrest.”
“By the time that happens she may have no money left,” said Athena. “And she will be out of options.”
Guess stupid idiot Johnny didn't learn his lesson with Doroteo. Leave it to him to screw things up
Victoria, i don't really see anything i want ot watch regularly so i will take a break over the summer.
i am sure i will be back later on to recap something else.
I agree that Diego's comments to both Isa and his agreeing to accompany Yomama to the wedding were great moments.
Also Ana calling Fernando 'Guapo! Guapo! Guapop!' talk about full circle from the moments before the first kiss between them.
Yes, Isabella calling herself a loser was real good and funny.
Does anyone remember David from earlier on? Why would he want to make J&J suffer over the baby if Isabitch didn't motivate him (and how would she know so much)? I thought she did but I seem to have been wrong.
Isabrat is a true loser who never grew up. Diego was right on the money about her and whether he realized she had the hots for him or not this was a major blow.
Isa is one step away from snapping, so I see her fate either as getting thrown in the slammer or totally losing it and being institutionalized as criminally insane. Either way, it suits. But sounds like Diego let her have it, though at this point not likely sinking in since she thinks getting rid of Ana would still allow her to get what's hers? You know, they make padded walls in nice colors now.

I don't know why they refuse to show us Ana's face but yet in the preview we clearly see her face and hairstyle at the wedding. Also, in the previews it looks like it's a child that gets shot.
I also throw some of the loanshark blame at Jenny. What did she expect? He's obviously not the sharpest knife in the draw but she tied his hands. She was being completely unreasonable and unfair to him and put him in that position to do something stupid. Then when he does it, she gets mad at him. She should've taken some blame for making him do that, he was desperate and wanted to help her and desperate people do dumb things.
Nando telling Ana, Fer he's confused...again. yawn. I'm not wasting time with stupidity. They recycle the exact same scenario and we're suppose to accept this?
I also wonder who's in the Limo and if they are up on the cliff, why didn't they get out?
UA, appreciate the Olympus comments
Touche Diego!
While no fan of Juan's, losing Aura to her bio dad is not his fault.
Nando is a spoiled punk and as some mentioned yesterday should end up alone. He assumes these women like puppies at the pound, begging for a home. Cannot Osorio portray a woman with any self respect?
Guess we're being force fed a more mature Fanny for a wedding to Leon and step motherhood.
Mayrin is such a delight to watch.
Nic & Soledad would be a perfect couple and can spend their twilight years dispensing bad advise to each other.
We never heard any actual figures about what her monthly stipend was. However in the modern world he was not obliged to pay it once he had custody of DN. No judge would make him do so, especially after the scandal she caused at the wedding.
Thanks for the recap marta.
I don't know why they are hiding her face on the show, but then show's her face and hairstyle in the preview. Also, it does look like a child has been shot from what the previews showed.
Nando telling Ana and Fer he's confused....Again! I'm not wasting time with this stupidity. I don't think they have any idea how to end this nonsense. They recycled the same scenario again and we're suppose to accept this?
I believe Jenny should accept some blame for the Loanshark thing with Johnny. She was being completely unreasonable and unfair to him and put everything squarely on him. He's not the sharpest knife in the draw but what he did, he did because she drove him to do something because of his stupid promise. I know he was trying to make her feel better but it was dumb for him to say he would'nt let Aura go back with her Dad. She held him to it and he became desperate and desperate people do dumb things and she has some blame in this as well. So for her to get mad at him for doing something she drove him to do, was dumb in my opinion.
Also, if Ana and Soledad is in the Limo, why didn't they get out on cliff? This TN is going in all directions.
My wife told me that this was the first TN that Mayrin was a villian and that she has been a sweetheart in other ones. I'm going to have check those out because she's been great/funny as a villian in this one.
and yes, this novela is all over the place this last week. i think what they are doing this week they could have done in 2 episodes.
Agree Bryan that Jenny drove Jonny to do something stupid to get Aura back. Jenny's behavior over a father finding and taking his daughter is too much. She doesn't know he is a bad guy.
David is acting like he isn't the father of the child since his sole intent is on selling her. Does he just not care about the child or was the DNA test faked?
The gods must have been looking out for Ana when Isa's car stalled!
Love the homemade wedding invitation. Too cute!
Oh Nando let them both go! Such a tired storyline.
Ah, the perfect phrase to motivate me to do a 360 with my head while hurling green stuff. After the Jen incident I really can't stand Nicthedic.
So are they channeling a reality show here, where we can't see the result until the big reveal? Gad, this was not the first time they did that and it is annoying.
Burn dress burn!!! Bwaaahahahah... huh, wait, store staff mislabeled the dresses. We're saved!
So Ana is looking at the bucket of ashes and in the next scene she is getting dresses? What happened to he end of the ashes in the bucket scene?
Oh yeah, the show only has $25 USD left in its budget, plus it is ended and we all want to go home now, cut more scenes out. Nobody will notice.
Let's buy baby Aura from her evil baby-daddy. No big deal, baby transactions happen all the time. I'll just hock my business. Since I promised my wife I would do something and this is a novella, it has to be something stupid! This was the worst way to resolve this story. Maybe Osorio has a surprise planned? Oh wait, show ending, budget gone.
Nando single handedly turns this novella into a Jr version of Dos Mujeres Un Camino. It did not end well for Erik E either (and I am not referring to his weight gain).
Ugh... I am really liking Arquimedes. If he works on it he can be a convincing geek mega villain. Maybe like Boris of Goldeneye.
Wait, let me see that again... Boris, er I mean Arqui in the trunk, Isa with the hi tech comm device in a white car, a white limo that is another car, Ana and Sol getting in the limo, suspicious looking chauffeur talking to Arqui(?), edge of cliff, Isa outside gloating. Can we rewind? How did... how did... oh snap! I am confused. This is more confusing than a politician's platform.
Oh wait, end of novella, no more budget... that explains it all!
Fannie and Leon... oh gawd, did she drink the koolaid? What is next for Fannie, Manuela's New Age cult? Please let her finish her studies and get a life, don't brainwash her into a wifey-poo just to put a happy ending to Leon's story (thereby effectively wiping the floor with Fanniemop).
Can we just sort of scroll Fin over this mess? Like right now... now!
As one vulture said to another: Patience my tush, I'm killing something!
Thanks so much for your many detailed and wonderful recaps. I look forward to hearing from you again . . . whenever something good grabs you. I am going to take a break for a while, too, and watch some novelas on line. I sure will miss our group, which makes even the most confusing and crazy novela worthwhile.
My favorite moment last night was when Diego chuckled after Isabruja slapped him. Is he the essence of cool, or what? Gotta love that guy. Glad he is back for the end.
Nando-Edith-Ximena -- I liked it when Ana threw the pillow at him!
Whatever else nuts goes on in this novela, I do enjoy Ana's affection for the kids. She (and SN) are great with them.
OT: I read an interview with SN where she says that she was not expecting to get pregnant and now has to make some adjustments because of all of the follow-ups they are doing with this novela, including something theatrical. I wonder if it will be a musical revue type thing, like the case of La Fea Mas Bella did.
Thanks for helping to get my day off to a rip-roaring start. I laughed so hard while reading your comment. You summed up 85% of the problem with this telenovela, Osorio's mismanagement of money, talent, and viewer patience.
yes, they took the storyline as a theatrical show on the road to several cities in Mex. I believe they only took a week or two break and were already on the road doing the show right after the novela finished airing in Mex.
He mentioned in 'Hoy' the dates and what cities they would be in and he went through feb and march dates. They are about wrapped up, i believe they were planning only throu April and Jorge said in the 'Hoy' interview Silvia would be with them until/while her pregnancy allowed it. Apparently all the actors (minus Rene Casados) are on the theatrical show... and several musical numbers are included.
Love the homemade wedding invitation. Too cute!
and it was proper for their situation (midlife marriage for Fer, many kids already in the bag, thus the wedding is a 'family affair'). IF this were the Fernando/Fanny wedding it would certainly not be appropriate for a caricature type invitation but here it fits so nice and Jorge and Silvia acted so well being delighted at the kids initiative to draw it.
too cute indeed!
Thanks for that information. I think I am ready for this to end but would be sore tempted to get to a show if it were anywhere near where I live. It's probably cute and fun.
All very appealing independent of some of the goofy plot developments! Would love to see them all in person.
Isaloser would still have the house, the money & the Lascurain name had she been nicer to the first 7 children. She already had 1 on her side.
As I mentioned before, it's not Nando that needs to move on from Ximena & Edith. It's Edith & Ximena that need to move on from Nando.
Neither one of them did anything wrong for Nando to move on from. Nando dumped both of them when a shiny new object came along.
Edith has trust issues & knows she could never truly be with someone she can't trust, and she cannot trust Nando.
Now it's appearing that Ximena is slowly coming to that same realization.
Again, Nando is just collecting "likes" at this point and that's fine; he's only 17/18.
Edith is playing games with Nando and needs to stop; she knows she's not getting back with him.
Ximena needs to dump Nando and focus on her recovery.
I am still kicking myself for finding out too late that Fernando Colunga and Blanca Soto were at a local theater doing their mystery play one night last year. (Post PEAM) That said, I'd get a kick out of seeing this group in person. So, I best keep my eyes open in case they would add U.S. dates. You never know who comes rolling through town.
Jarifa
So are we going to get a final hiphop dance from Sebastian on the last show? Great.
Too bad Jonny didn't think to go to a real bank for a loan and use his business for collateral. If the business is as successful as it seems, he probably could have gotten a loan.
Bryan, if you want to see Mayrin as a sweet person, see Mentir Para Vivir.
My interest in most of the main storylines has tapered off, but I I'm still curious about the Edith/Xime/Nando trio. Guess that will be one of our big cliffhangers.
J in Oregon
i guess she did learn to edit herself. Not sure if you all noticed but when Angel and Magda told them they were heading to a trip to Europe Ana reacted 'que chido!' and instantly she and Fernando looked at each other. she corrected herself and he smirked a smile at her... her reaction to his telling her he got the annulment was a bit over the top (the old Ana style)... but who wouldn't be excited? LOL!
Saw MCET previews during Hasta when I was flipping channels last night. Laura turns up. Hopefully, tonight will be the ep where she gets her anvil and we can be done with her.
She's in the same category as Isa to the extent that they both are intelligent, attractive women with a lot going for them and they decided to embrace their worst faults.
Excellent Diego/Isa scene.
Speaking of excellent--awesome recap, Marta.
Jarifa: I saw the play, Obscuro Total in a quaint, old theater in L.A. that showed only Spanish productions. Sadly, Flaco told me a few weeks ago that it's closed now and they're going to build a strip mall on the spot. How freakin' depressing.

He learned how to express it from Ana, but he always had it in him.
When LQNPA story begins, Rodrigo was abandoned by his wife... (have not watched that one from the beginning not sure if it happened before or after the horse accident that left him paralized) so he was angry at the world... he did not have kids so he took his anger on Ana Paula and everyone else... she slowly helped him get over the blow/anger and her love gave him a new reason to look forward.
Fernando had just lost his wife and was left with the whole family to carry on his own... so rather than angry, he was utterly sad, VULNERABLE and lonely (he loved his kids but he chose to deal with his grief shutting himself in work as a protective shell to the point of not realizing his kids needed him as much as he needed them for support).
can you tell i took 15 credits in Psychology in the 80s while i got engineering degrees? i like to break down the characters and look for cause and effect threads.
Vanesa couldn't deal with his paralysis & said Peace Out. I'm not quite sure the reason why Vanesa came slithering back to Rogelio.
How is Univision showing the finale? Online I have seen #176 for the musical show and #177 for the two-hour finale.
I've seen it to the end, but won't post spoilers.
Re: LQNPA
Vanessa went slithering back to Rogelio because despite his paralysis he was twice as rich as he had been before. That was because of his work ethic. What she stood to inherit from her father wasn't enough, especially because of the half-sister she never knew about until then.
She also didn't like the idea that a nobody like Ana Paula (her words, not ours) would get him instead.
Part one of 177 would be Thursday and the last part would be on Friday.
and no, the musical numbers are songs in between stuff. i don't think there is a whole 'musical' hour.
read the first 30 very brief recaps from mexico and loved the back and forth leveling Rogelio's temper, with two steps back, three steps forward, etc.
i have watched the last 30 eps or so on youtube so i know what is coming so can watch without the anxiety.
I didn’t like Ana’s hair or Fanny’s headpiece. I did like both their dresses, especially Fanny’s. Love the oyster grey color (at least that’s what it looked like on my TV).
They did a good job of putting crazy person makeup on Laura. But I had to laugh at her pulling out an electric razor. Poor pathetic Laura. I doubt she would have gotten close enough to Fanny to do any damage even without Leon interfering.
I’m really liking Isa’s comical villain, but if you think about the actual deeds—it’s horrific. What kind of person laughs about killing a little girl?!
Questions:
Didn't it seem like the annulment came through awfully quick?
There was an eight-month time jump. Wouldn’t that make Ana about 10 months pregnant?
