Caray, Caray!

To coment on the episode, I really liked seeing Lucio gone but now Tony turned into a killer making his situation even more unbearable. Cannot wait until more happy stuff occurs like Domingo getting out of the reclusorio and Diego marrying Ab's despite that poor Nieves would get hurt. I want a Nieves & Diego wedding more TBH cause its not bittersweet & no one outside of Ab's would despair.
 

Thanks Countx, awesome recap of a dark episode. Fausto's end had better be a gruesome one. What a demon. Turning (not so) poor Tony into a killer was the last straw. Is he cleaning up his misdeeds for a chance at Abi? Ewwww, I hope payback is truly a -itch.( use whatever consonant you like). Lucio's death is no lose to SL but it shouldn't have been by Tony's hand. I am a bit confused by Porfilio. Is he on to the twins or not? With all his money, he can't pay for a better plastic surgeon? Abi??? I have no words. That is what happens when you have too much time on your hands. She believes Mat is related and yet she wants to be his lover? Did I miss something in translation?

Thanks Countx.

I am weary of Fausto getting his way ALL the time. The babies turn out to be Mat's somehow. Lucio takes the fall for all Fausto's crimes and the police totally believe it. Fausto manipulates Tono into killing Lucio. Fausto takes possession of the gun with Tono's fingerprints, which he can use to manipulate and blackmail him. Ugh! Can no one put a stop to him?
 

Hanna- Ever since Abi started believing that Fausto is her daddy, I haven't been able to understand why she isn't freaked out that it means Mat is her first cousin. Eww!
 

Thanks so much for #105 Count #104 didn't make it in a recap. So what I missed in 104 was why did everyone turn against Lucio. Not that I really care about the bad guys but I was left wondering why seemingly all at once the baddies teamed up and Lucio ended up as the odd man out.

What was the gun that Mac gave the police chief?

How did Fausto team up with Porfirio? What's with that?

This story is hard for me to follow but even so, the recap team help out a lot. Thanks team.

Gringo- Let's see if I can answer some of your questions.

Mac's anonymous notes were making people and the police ask too many questions, which would lead to Fausto, so he asked Lucio to take the fall for all the crimes. The payment in exchange for this was that Fausto would pay for all of Max's health care.

We learned that in reality, Porfirio was giving Fausto the money for Max's treatment. He was aware of and supportive of the plan to send Lucio to jail because he wants to separate Max from Lucio. He considers Max to be his last living relative and wants him with him.

Meanwhile, Fair to has been laying the groundwork with everyone, telling them that Lucio committed all the crimes described in the anon notes. He tells Barragan about his affair with Helena, being Mat's daddy, the argument with his brother, but twists the ending saying Lucio picked up the gun that got dropped in the struggle between Gerry and Fausto, and shot Gerry. We know he told young Lucio to shoot. Fausto lies and says Lucio has been blackmailing him all theses years, saying no one would believe he killed Gerry and not Fausto. Supposedly all these years Fausto has been living in fear of Lucio and under his thumb.

The gun Mac (after being bedded and fooled by Fausto again) gave Barragan was THE gun, with fresh new prints that she fooled Lucio into putting on it the other day when he grabbed it from her gloved hands.
 

Fausto not Fair.
 

Vivi thanks for the explanation and LOL at "Fair" . Autocorrect does seem to have quite a twisted sense of humour !

Fausto also manipulated Lucio into the pit because he saw the picture in which Di& Lucio were kissing. He took the opportunity to kill two flies with one stone. Now i suppose Di, Xi &Mac get to become Faust's new enemies. The Devil Vs Hoes , the show is on!!
 

Thanks Countx
Fausto is.such an evil bastard, seriously manipulating Tono to kill Lucid and absolving himself if virtually every single crime, and having the power to blackmail everybody.
How is it possible again that Mateo thinks that baby Gerardo is his.
Good times for Pat and Ren hopes it last.
Fausto better not die, I hope his anvil is heavy and his punishment is even worse.
 

Games of Thrones wannabe telenovela. So Boring is the father of the one twin left? If Fausto is his Dad how can they know for sure on a paternity test, don't they have to go further with testing and include Boring's mother? How come everyone knows something is bothering someone but just let's it go?
 

Anon- The paternity test says the babies are Mat's not Fausto. Even Diana was shocked at the news. Either Fausto somehow managed to tamper with the tests, or because Mat is the sibling of the babies it skewed the results to positive.
 

Thanks Vivi---There is a lot of chess board maneuvering going on in this novela. From the way things are going, when all is said and done the little pueblo will never be the same. That will be a good thing, for the better.

Anon- What do you mean by them having to test Mat's mom Helena to find out if Mat is the father of Diana's babies? In any case, Mat doesn't know Fausto is his father, he thinks he's his uncle, so he would not know they have so much DNA in common.
 

Count,
Thanks for the recap. Great work!

I have had enough with Fausto's evilness. His anvil can't come quick enough. And I hope Abi finds out Fausto's true feelings for her soon. I am tired of waiting to see Abi's reaction when Fausto tells her he wants and desires her as a woman. Will she freak out when he goes in for a kiss?

Also, let's hope Ren is able to unmask some of the evil-doers with her fake blindness.

Hasta pronto!



 

In spite of everything, I hate to see Lucio go! But he was a bad dude. I will be shocked if he turns out to be alive and gets healed at Meliton's hands - again. But I agree with the other commenter that Lucio getting killed by Lucio 2.0 didn't seem right, didn't seem like a heavy enough anvil. I could actually see him being alive which would spare Tono some grief, since ultimately Tono is sure to be a good guy.

The other night, Fausto said, "The man who put a bullet in Pablo's skull was Lucio." Did Fausto incriminate himself there, or is it known that the bullet was in the skull?

Yeah for Motor! He was the only one who has ever stood up for Teodora in a meaningful way. He almost paid with his life, but then Max showed up and found out about Lucio latest threat against Teo. Hope Max lives and they can be together.

I don't get what Porfirio's game is either. And as stated above, he should get a better plastic surgeon. But I think his disfigurement isn't so bad and the people who live with him would get used to it, much more so than the ridiculous mask.

I'm not sure what to think about the paternity of the babies. I guess if Diana and the twins had been truly murdered, nobody would have run any tests on them. But Fausto must have believed or already had proof that they were his to have ordered that hit. Now since there is still living proof, he may have paid off a lab tech. Also, I agree that the test results could be skewed since Mat and Fausto are father and son. Surely they tested Mat and said he's the father, but I bet if they tested Fausto they'd get the same result!

Abi, get a life. Diego, get a life. When Diego got out of jail, he stumbled over the phrase "libertad condicional." He's got field smarts for growing stuff and running a ranch, but otherwise doesn't seem like a good fit for a more cerebral person. Which of course Abi is not. College-educated, yes, but smart? Not so fast!

So ready for the end!

Thank you Count.

 

This Novela is getting twisted in all kinds of ways.

We aren't many in our little circle but I'll be glad to take votes on who kills Fausto, if anyone wants to put there two cents in. But one vote per person, although there might not be anyone left standing at the ending, what with the murder rate and all.
Poor Simona,she didn't deserve Toño trying into a killer.


 

I vote for Dianaconda! (1 vote, but I'd but I'd vote more if I thought it would put him further underground.
 

**(1 vote, but I'd vote more if I thought it would put him deeper underground.)
 

Thanks for the recap Count!
Victoria: my vote is for Renata as payback for so many years of suffering.
 

No problem, I am voting for Renata too but i started to vote for Diana too. As long as Faust has enemies it's all good and entertaining. Faust is close to GOT's vileness but he is too one dimensional to compete with Tywin. But he could make Joffrey tremble that's for sure!
This is more like Game of Hoes than it is Game of Thrones.



I hope Tony doesnt kill again and pays for his crime but i suppose it would take very much for that to happen.
 

I saw the episode last night, wasn't surprised that Lucio got whacked.

Meanwhile, Renata saw Diana's EVILNESS (now she can FINALLY see again), but I'm looking forward to her finding out Fausto & Diana were knocking boots!
 

AuntyAnn: I'm with you there on Renata playing the fake blind person, but how long will she keep this up IF she accidently slips up ?

I mean someone's going to notice (Fausto)!
 

Oh epidsode 108 will be very exciting! I am excited to see what will happen between diana and fausto's pointing gun at each other while renata is in the same room.
