Amores con Trampa April 24 2015... the fashion show wrapped in deceptions, dissappointments and appologies. and one villain team mystery solved... i see duos of villains everywhere...

Refritos:
Pancha tries to convince Chabelle that she needs to pull Fel away from Car or she will have to get used to the 'farm channel' scent of the month.
Lo nuevo:
Carmen is showing Fel some of her modeling steps she will use in the catwalk... (eh... pastorela... eh... pasarela).   Carmen is very excited about the modeling stint.  Chabelle asks Fel if he is trading Pancha for Carmen.   She says she can tolerate the Carmonas but she does not want the farmers to join the 'family'
Maria and Facundo in bedroom(they are wearing ALMOST matching plaid pajama pants)... she wants to talk to him about the knitting... he is excited to announce to her they will celebrate their anniversary in a BIG way.  (are we talking elephants or giraffes instead of horses and goats now?)
Next morning the lovebirds are telling the rest of the family about the celebration plans. Mother Galla warns them they have to hide all the valuables for the celebration so none of them dissappear.  El Gallo wants everyone to know what a great perfect wife he has.
nighttime... at Velascos, Chabelle is getting ready (quite ellegant outfit/jewelry) for the fashion show.  Santi asks if tonight will be THAT special.  why spend so much on HER outfit?  She argues she feels useful and valuable for the first time in a long time. SHe does not think his presence would add much. He is happy to hear that, more time to spend with his Steffffi.
Maria and Carmen are getting dressed. Susana and Margarito (the pig) come in. the others ask her not to tell on them.
Maria and Carmen get to go out, Facundo only ranted a little about the length of Carmen's skirt.
Meanwhle Steffffiiii is with Estevan... they are toasting to deceiving Santi and the farmer and will end up with all the farmer's money... jajajajaja...
Maria and Carmen have made it to the dressing area of the fashion show.  The designer is there to help Carmen get ready.   He yells at all the makeup/stylists just lke a good designer would. He has a surprise. The last model is none other than... the white rabit!... nah... Wendy Thomas!... nah... none other than PANCHA!!!! Carmen not a happy camper, rather she looks like someone just took her ice cream away. To add insult to injury Fel came in with Pancha.
Santi finds Steffi's door locked. Estevan is hiding behind a plant while Steffi is tryng to calm down Santi who is miffed at finding the door locked.
Chabelle is working the next step of her plan... she tells El Gallo that his wife lied to him, she deceived him and never stopped working on the shawls. she is now at the fashion show.  El Gallo looks like he just saw his favorite hen  necking with the Gallo from three hen houses down.

Carmen has Maria and two stylists on her. they are putting flowers on her hair.  Chabelle comes in and can't believe (or is faking admiration, which is more likely) Carmen's looks.  Designer asks where she was... she had a commitment.  Maria is nervous about the amount of people in the audience.  Galla comes out to take a seat and Mama Galla comes and sits by her.
ok ths fashion show s a bit weird. suimsuits with high heels with the shawls over one shoulder.
Pancha's 'friends' compliment her looks as she walks.  Carmen slips and falls right in the middle of the catwalk. Fel is heading to grab her but Chabelle stops him. Carmen gets up and recovers... poses with all the models on a final take.  The designer comes out and wants Galla to climb on the stage and take her vow. Mama Galla has to convince her to go.
Just as Galla is alone up on the catwalk taking the applause, in comes Gallo... and he is not a happy camper... he looks more like a bull rather than a rooster.  He leaves angry. Maria gets really upset and Mama galla comes to console her while Chabelle gloats a bit satisfied and Susana gets a bit concerned.
Steffie is all over Santi at the apartment.  She claims she had a headache and took a pain killer. and that is why she is behaving a bit ansy.  He gets a phone call. Seems it was Chabelle wanting him to come home.  He tries to leave but Steffie helps push him out the door.  Then Esteb comes out of the bedroom and they both look a bit concerned.
After the show, Fel is complimenting Carmen... of course Pancha comes and latches to his arm.  In comes Mama galla to haul (literally) Carmen home because Galla is upset.  But before she leaves Carmen tells Fel she is glad he enjoyed 'the show' (Her show?).
At the house, angry Gallo is steaming off a bit on the other roosters of the house both older and younger ones.  In come Galla, Mama Galla, Carmen and Susy... Galla is upset, tells Gallo she did not mean to deceive him, she just felt it was important she finish it.  HE claims if she had told him the truth she would not have had to lie to him. He is dissappointed in her, sad.
In their bedroom Chabelle feels like celebrating. Santi is willing to join in.  He asks if the 'monta perros' Gallo got really mad.  Chabelle assures him Gallo looked like a hungry Tyranosaurus spitting fire, surely he will never forgive 'la mustia' galla.  Santi is happy to hear Chabelle laugh and enjoy anything.    She thinks by tomorrow at this time Gallo will be your associate and our financial woes wll end.  Santi asks if she is sure he will have Gallo as associate.  She says this is just the beginning. the show just got started!... they get a bit loud playing MCs.
At the Carmonas the waterworks are still going on Galla.  He says he is even more upset that she had to involve Carmen and Susy in the whole scheme.  The girls ask him not to take it so hard and to forgive them.  Gallo says he is not mad at 'la yoyita' he is only mad at Galla. He just cancelled the anniversary celebration.   Then he starts mentioning family and friends of hers that he has never liked (LOL!! and Papa Gallo backs hm up).  Mama Galla says he can't do this. Gallo says you should have given better advice to your daughter. (he leaves, he feels he is drowning, lacking air) It's Papa Gallo's turn to yell at the ladies, he even calls her liars to their faces.
Outside, Young Gallo catches up with Gallo, but Gallo sends him back inside, have to sort this out alone. Gallo gets a phone call... but we don't learn who is on the other end. Suddenly he is sitting at a restaurant and is joined by Chabelle.  (ok so she was on phone?) She says she feels guilty for what she caused. She assures him Galla did not mean any harm.  He says dont say anything, he thanks her for her friendship and for giving him the heads up. She is the most decent person he has found in the city (his standard for decency are a bit questionable, aren't they?)  He then thinks and says maybe he went overboard. (this is not convenient to Chabelle that he make ammends with Galla so quickly so ) she recommends he wait and think it over a while first.  Gallo heads to restroom and she hides his phone under his hat... then puts a whole dropper of something in his glass of wine.
Galla is upset that Gallo won't answer the cell phone.  Papa gallo starts mocking cell phones, they don't work when you need to reach people the most.  He says the wedding/anniversary celebration should happen now... so he can get to see the 'girls'... the carnitas, huevitos, guac, etc.  Carmen is appologizing to Galla.  Galla says its her fault. she should have known better than get in this mess. Young Gallo says you are right... he says after all he has gone through with Rocio and all the trouble they have had with the neighbors she SHOULD HAVE known better. Both Papa Gallo and Carmen rant at him for being so hard on his mom.
Once Young Gallo is in his bedroom he gets a cell phone call from Rocio. He is not in the mood, but she says enough of the 'broncas', however he is  not ready to do much release exercise... she then asks him who she is... he finally has found the 'magic pill of calm' and starts getting romantic and sweet talks her...
Carmen and Gusana (suzy) talk about their parents and all the troubles they have had with the neighbors... Carmen defends all the new experiences they have had since they moved to the city.  Gusana asks what about our parents relationship. Carmen says let them work things out.  You will see that whey you grow up you will know how to work things out with your significant other just like our parents will get through this, you'll see...
Galla is upset in kitchen ranting out to Mama Galla.  Mama Galla tries to calm her down, asks Galla to take responsibility over what she caused herself.  She deceived her, no matter how she dresses it.  Galla says 'what if he went with Chabelle?'
Gallo and Chabelle are arriving or maybe trying to exit the restaurant they were at... but he is too drunk or drugged to make it out... he ends up in a compromising hug with her... some kind of weird modern dance toward the exit... leaning on the door...   ok i never saw walking therapy that looked anything like this...
Little Gallo finds Papa Gallo sharpening a machete, gets scared that Papa Gallo means to do something to 'mi apa!' with it...  Turns out Papa Gallo is sharpening the knife to shave himself with it... (yeah right, well it is also a word play about not letting anyone climb up to his beard, meaning won't let anyone climb above/all over him or lie to him)  ... they look at the great grandpa Great Gallo Col. Porfirio Carmona...  they vow that they will not tell lies for the sake of the 'revolution'... LOL!
Back to the hotel, Gallo still looks sick, unable to walk straight other than slithering down the walls... Somehow they have made it into a hotel bedroom.. Chabelle seems to have got him in there with the excuse that Galla would worry even more if she got to see him in this 'state'.  Chabelle manages (with difficulty) to get him lying on the bed...  and out for the countdown.   Chabelle hopes she did not overdo the drop count. LOL! She makes a call on her cell phone.  She tells someone 'ok, done. We are ready'.
Seems they are about to frame up Gallo (yup, they classic 'naked in bed with Chabelle'... Santi walks in on them and is taking pictures and threatening he will send them to Galla)

OT:
for those with access to MundoFox, 'Pura Sangre' (the colombian predecessor of Manana es para siempre) is beginning on MundoFox on Monday, believe at 10 am EST.

Also, a good series, also on MundoFox, is 'Sera y Seyit, amor en guerra'. at 9pm weekdays. i am following that. not sure what country this is from, maybe somewhere in eastern europe.
Although there is also 'fugitivos' on UniMas at 9pm est weekdays with Emmanuel Esparza (from La Pola)
 

Thanks, Marta. Your "gallo" variations are the best!

Kudos to the writers for not making us wait until the end to find out who Estefany's partner in crime is. Esteban is so low key but he sure gets around.

For me the funniest part was Facundo adding imsult to injury to camcelling the party and talking about María's family/friends he never liked.

Isabel's plan is working very well first with ratting out María and then there is the old drugged drink trick. It was such a common device back in the old 1940's/50's movies, it was simply referred to as the "mickey."

Yes, Beto was insolent. So glad María jumped on him. She should have done the same to Carmen whe she threatened to blackmail her.

Now let me get this straight when looking into the mind of Facundo: it was okay to cause his María untold misery withholding Beto's location and okay to go behind María's back to cook up a plan with a sketchy neighbor woman to dissuade María from what she wants to do because he feels threatened BUT it is not okay that María has "lied" to him about doing what she really wants to do? Then he blames her for dragging the kids into it when he made the whole family suffer not telling them where Beto was. Facundo has a lot to learn. Looks like his education is just starting in that hotel room.

Another entertaining episode.

Gracias, Marta.

Loved Carmen's recovery on the catwalk; Francis really needs to be taken down several pegs. But Fel is too wishy-washy for Carmen; there has to be somebody better for her out there.

I guess after what happened at the catwalk Maria doesn't get to have her name on a label. Too bad.


 

Oooo.... Intriguing title! Can't wait to read the recap!
 

Thank you, Marta! I loved all the Gallo variations too!
 

Thanks, Marta! There was a lot going on this episode, and a lot of funny amidst the heartache.

Jarifa- You perfectly captured Facundo's hypocrisy, and next episode he will pay BIG time for it. It's ok for him to sneak around conspiring with Isa, but not ok for Maria to do it. Well his bit of conspiring behind Maria's back is going to land him in bed, naked with Isa, and being blackmailed by Isa and Santi. Now, was the fashion show drama worth it, Facundo?

I also loved the way Carmen quickly recovered from her runway fall, and she was great with Susana later. She earned points back from her bad behavior the last episode blackmailing Maria.

Drugged Facundo and Isa against that wall was hilarious. Oh, Facundo!

Esteban behind the potted plant, getting tickled and sneezing, and Stefi having to pretend it was her. LOL.

If they weren't celebrating the success of Isa's evil plan, I would say that Isa and Santi were adorable as they celebrated together.
 

Esteban and Stefi are pulling the same divide and conquer trampa on Santi and Isa, as Santi and Isa are pulling on Fac and Maria. I bet Esteban is the reason behind Isa turning cold on Santi five months ago, making him the perfect mark for Stefi's entrance back into his life. Last night Santi said he'd been in love with Isa since he was 15.
 

Wonderful recap!

I wonder if that is why Estefy stays on Santiago abt taking the pill, so Esteban can take pics of Santi and Estefy. It would be funny if both couples were in the same exact position. Fac gives Santiago the blackmail money just for Santiago to have to hand it over to Estefy. Though I cant see Isa being as upset but we do know Santiago loves his wife and wouldn't want to lose her.

Yoya did redeem herself last night.

Fac is such a huge man I was thinking Isa may get trapped under him if he fell!
 

Thank goodness Facundo came into the fashion show after Carmen had left the stage. Can you imagine how he would have reacted had he see her in nothing but a bathing suit, heels, and chal.
 

He probably would have jumped up on the stage, screaming, if he didn't have a heart attack first.

I do wish he had arrived when Maria was being cheered. He arrived just after it was winding down. I was hoping he might take some pride in her accomplishments and understand what it meant for her.
 

Thanks, Marta. My favorite: El Gallo looks like he just saw his favorite hen necking with the Gallo from three hen houses down.

Facundo walking in and being stunned by Maria up on the catwalk was such a Luci-Desi moment. Lol.

I'm actually feeling sorry for Facundo now. Maria lying pales in comparison to him in bed with Isa. Will he realize that he's been snookered and nothing happened?

ITA Carmen has redeemed herself. She was good with Susana. In all, I just liked the sisterhood of all the Carmona women at the fashion show.

Diana, hope we hear from you soon.
 

Niecie,
Facundo walking in and being stunned by Maria up on the catwalk was such a Luci-Desi moment. Lol.
Good one! you are right, although Luci and Desi just had the comedy timing down perfect!! somehow I don't see AZ being that funny all on her own like Luci used to be.
first time i went to Disney i remember they picked the other girl in my group of 4 friends to play Ethel in the famous chocolate factory scene with another girl playing Lucy... i was picked to be one of the singing girls trio (like the one Diana Ross started at)
 

I finally got to sit down and watch the episode last night. I agree with everyone that Carmen recovered very nicely after she fell. I was proud of her. But I'm sure she'll do something to annoy me on Monday. :-)

I think Estefy and Santi in the bed was one of the funniest scenes.
 

Thank you, Marta, for the terrific recap. My plan is not to miss any episodes of Amores since it is so visual as a comedy but unexpected things happen. Especially hated to miss the fashion show and Facundo' s macho reaction. So thank you for the valuable recap and hope the epi is on You Tube (no Hulu.)

GinCA
 

I echo Niecie in MD when I say that I miss Diana.
 

Thanks, Marta!
Beto was shocked, I tell you, shocked by his mom's sin of omission. Is he forgetting his own duplicitous behavior when he hid out in a hotel room instead of heading back to the campo? Good luck, Rocío.

Denise
 

I'm not ashamed to admit I created an instagram account so I could follow Margarito and he just posted the most precious picture of baby goats.
 

Thanks for the Margarito update, I will have to go and look! :). I have his page bookmarked . . .

Jarifa
 

I'll be sure to give periodic updates!
