Yo No Creo en los Hombres #15 Lunes 8/3/15
Chapter
15: Another Game of Telephone
Maria
Dolores arrived at Max's office and told him off for thinking she was
pursuing Daniel for his money. She told him that Daniel had
misrepresented himself as a chauffeur while all the time he was the
spoiled son of the employing family. But that now his family was
broke. Max wasn't quite ready to believe that although he didn't
accuse Maria Dolores of lying. He knew Daniel was a player of some
kind. He then said he would talk to Maleny about this since she was
Daniel's sister. Maria Dolores' cell rang and she answered. It was
Esperanza, who told her about what happened to her shop. She told
her she would be right there. When she ended the call she almost
broke down. Max held her for a moment and asked if she wanted him to
take her to the police station to report it. She said “Thanks but
no thanks” and headed out the door.
At
Bankruptcy Manor Úrsula told Maleny that Maria Dolores had dumped
Danny-Boy. Maleny demanded that she get him to keep Maria Dolores
away from Max. Úrsula told her that Max had gotten on Danny-Boy's
case about cheating on Ivana. Whatever else was bothering Maleny,
this wound her up tighter than a Swiss mainspring. Úrsula told her
that Danny-Boy had told Ivana that Max had been chasing Maria
Dolores. Maleny stared as though she had been jabbed with a rabies
needle. She whined about “Everything is all about him, isn't it?”
and her mother reminded her that without Ivana's bank balance they
were nowhere.
“Besides,
Max loves you. He won't leave you for some seamstress.”
Maleny
ran out of the room. She didn't seem convinced.
Danny-Boy
arrived at the shop and looked around. When Esperanza told him that
Maria Dolores was with Max he was ready to lose it. He started
saying it was his fault because of the fight he had with Maria
Dolores the night before.
In
Claudio's office Isela started working on the agenda and on the boss.
He was worried about his younger son, but Isela suggested he do
something nice for his wife. That was rather novel for someone
trying to become The Other Woman.
Danny-Boy
was still in the barrio when Maria Dolores checked out the damage.
She told her mother she was not going to report it to the police
because she knew who did it. Danny-Boy looked really interested.
Esperanza was sure it was nobody from the nabe and Maria Dolores was
sure it was someone from the den of iniquity that Julian had gotten
the loan from. She told her mother to leave it alone because she
didn't want to hurt Julian's case any more. If only she had known
the Fat Guy was in Danny-Boy's hip pocket.
Maleny
was in Max's apartment. She listened to a message from Ivana telling
her to call right away when the doorbell rang. She let Ari in, all
kisses and ready hormones. Some dames have all the nerve and no
common sense. She obviously liked living dangerously because when he
said he had a couple of hours free she suggested they do the mattress
mambo there. He was not thrilled that this was Max's apartment but
she liked the idea of revenge for Max chasing Maria Dolores. Ari
told her that Maria Dolores and Max were only talking legal business;
her boyfriend's name is Daniel.
Esperanza
excused herself and said she was going home. She begged Danny-Boy
and Maria Dolores not to argue because they all had to stick
together. After she left Maria Dolores told him she didn't want him
around. He seemed to concede but said that the reason he didn't want
to meet her parents earlier was because he wanted to fix his family's
situation first. Maria Dolores didn't swallow that.
“Max
told me your family isn't in ruin,” she said.
“Of
course,” he said. “Because Max, like my family, is against our
relationship. Is that what you wanted to hear when your father died?
You didn't need more problems. The only thing I want is for you to
listen and understand. You have to believe me, my love.”
“Don't
say 'my love' to me,” she said.
Too
bad he couldn't bottle and sell his chutzpah; that would have gotten
his family out of ruin in a New York minute.
At
the Duval office Gerry was reminding Ivana about the interviews and
photo session coming up. She was irritated because she had something
else on her mind. Maleny had told her that Max was chasing Maria
Dolores. If that was a preview of how her married life would play,
she should have definitely broken the engagement. She really didn't
want to get involved. Gerry reminded her they had more important
things to worry about, like the press thinking that their designs
were copies of tawdry rags sold in cheap shops.
Lic.
Arango was waiting for Maria Dolores when she arrived home. He made
it clear to her that Úrsula was not pleased with her relationship
with Danny-Boy. She started to tell him that their relationship was
over, but he wasn't believing her. He said that due to the family's
financial situation she was not going to buy her off. Maria Dolores
gave him his walking papers with a few harsh words about decency.
Ari
and Maleny had worked up quite a sweat. As much as any riders of the
beast with two backs. She started telling him she loved him, but he
said he had to leave. Her cell rang and it was Úrsula, telling her
her own version of what happened between Arango and Maria Dolores.
Maleny didn't believe it after the money Danny-Boy had spent on
setting up the shop.
Maria
Dolores was helping Esperanza when Clara came home from school with
Leonardo behind her. She hadn't been aware of the robbery.
Esperanza talked about how hard they would have to work to pay back
what Daniel had spent. Leonardo offered to help. He apologized to
Maria Dolores for his earlier assumptions about her. She told him
that she had been told that Danny-Boy's family was in ruin. Leonardo
didn't believe that. He did recognize Arango's name when Maria
Dolores told him of that visit.
In
the meantime, Danny-Boy visited Max and told him that he and Maria
Dolores had a permanent split. Max was satisfied, telling him that
he had no business messing up the life of a good woman like her.
Danny-Boy took that to mean that Max was interested in her. That he
wanted to play the hero to impress her. Max calmly stared him in the
eye and told him that yes, it is possible to want to help a woman
without such ulterior motives. Of course Danny-Boy wasn't convinced.
He demanded that Max stay away from Maria Dolores after Julian's
case was concluded. He even said “Or I swear you'll be sorry.”
Like that little weasel could stand up to someone like Max. Although
neither of them noticed, Isela heard some of this.
That
is, until Danny-Boy walked out of Max's office and saw her staring at
the door. Esther came in and gave her a file to put on Claudio's
desk. She hurried into Claudio's office, but Danny-Boy followed her
and stopped the door she tried to slam. He went inside as she
slapped the file on the desk and turned her around to face him.
“What
did you hear?” he said in a threatening voice.
“Only
you accusing Max of playing with my friend.”
“I'm
only making sure he doesn't mess with the woman I love.”
They
only stared.
Later
Isela went to Orlando's apartment where they talked about his
business and his need for money. She explained she also felt bad
about not having talked much recently with Maria Dolores and her
problems. He told her “You've just been too busy with your new
job.”
Leonardo
visited Alma to thank her for sending his clothes. She assured
herself he was eating well. Their mood changed when Claudio returned
from work. Leonardo explained that he had apologized to Maria
Dolores and that his parents would have to do the same for Clara.
Their misconceptions were all a misunderstanding provoked by
Danny-Boy. Claudio didn't look convinced.
The
doctor at the hospital told Honoria that they were releasing Fermin
the Vermin. She was not happy with this.
At
the Fat Man's dive it looked like Danny-Boy was about to get on his
bad side. He accused him of robbing the shop and the Fat Man denied
the accusation. “I'm not your servant,” he said to him. Two of
his thugs picked Danny-Boy out of his seat and held him in place.
The Fat Man's fist went right into his gut.
At
the Duval house Ivana told Susanna she wasn't expecting Danny-Boy to
come to dinner.
The
knock on the door was Max's, who apologized for not having dropped by
before. He declined the offer of a drink because he wasn't going to
take much of her time. Ivana asked Susanna to leave them alone.
She complied. Ivana and Max sat down and he tried to talk about the
situation with Maria Dolores, who had returned her severance check.
He tried to get it back, saying the information she had was
distorted. She had agreed to return it because Gerry had convinced
her it was the right thing to do. But she was convinced that Maria
Dolores was boinking Max.
Isela
and Maria Dolores were talking about her breakup with Danny-Boy. She
started to explain the details when the Fat Man and his thugs dumped
the weasel at her feet, saying she was now responsible. He seemed
unconscious as the criminals left.
Max
was shocked at hearing this accusation for the second time that day.
“You've known me since we were children,” he told her. “This
is nonsense invented by Jacinto to fight the accusations of Maria
Dolores and Isela.”
Ivana
didn't believe him and went on about Maleny being hurt and afraid,
but he persisted. “I will not have you doubt me as a lawyer or as
a friend. Who told you this lie?”
“Daniel.”
He
then told her that this wasn't about Maleny. “Daniel is the one
who is messing with Maria Dolores.”
She
stared and started shaking her head.
Maria
Dolores and Isela were trying to revive Danny-Boy and didn't know
what to do. Just as they almost argued he seemed to revive.
Leonardo appeared and he helped them get him up from the pavement.
Fermin
the Vermin was in Honoria's apartment. He was looking at photos of
her and Julian. “He doesn't look anything like me,” he said.
She told him to can it. She took the photos away and put them back
in their place before going to the kitchen.
Max
had left the Duval house. Susanna told Ivana that Max was incapable
of doing what she thought he had done. And that Ivana shouldn't put
her hands in the fire for Danny-Boy. For such a busybody she did get
things right from time to time.
Danny-Boy
was sitting in the Morales apartment. Maria Dolores put something
pungent under his nose to make sure he was breathing. He said a few
words about what happened and tried to stand up, saying he had to go
home. He was clutching his stomach and couldn't or wouldn't
straighten up. She told him he wouldn't be able to drive and got him
to sit down again. Leonardo helped him up and out of the room as the
phone rang. Clara came in with the phone. Max told Maria Dolores
that the next day there would be a court appearance. He expected it
to go well. She was pleased. She asked him why the guy in the bar
would beat up Danny-Boy. And why she would be next. Max told her
not to worry; he would take care of it.
Josefa
was willing to believe any lie about Maria Dolores, but Isela wasn't
having it. Which made Josefa nastier than ever, saying that Maria
Dolores had a black soul and bad blood, listing all the crimes she
wanted to believe her guilty of. Isela told her off and left.
Leonardo
saw Daniel home. Úrsula and Maleny stared in shock. He said he was
beaten up by a couple of thugs. They asked Leonardo what he had to
do with this. “What did that bitch have to do with this?” asked
Maleny. Leonardo said “Nothing, but I found him there and
brought him home. “This didn't do anything good because Danny-Boy
told him to butt out. Leonardo refused, telling him that it was his
fault he left home because of all the lies about Maria Dolores and
her family. Úrsula said this wasn't necessary. Leonardo told him
that he had better hope Max could fix things before he walked out.
He didn't see the nasty sneer on Danny-Boy's face.
Max
arrived just as Leonardo came down the stairs from the front door.
They exchanged information about Fermin the Vermin, who had to
testify the next day. Leonardo asked Max to talk to their parents
about Daniel's responsibility in the lies. “Of course. I'll make
everything clear.”
Úrsula
was having a conniption over what to say to Max's parents. Danny-Boy
said something about Maria Dolores having stirring up his hormones and Úrsula
slapped him. “Shut up!”
“You're
going to regret hitting me,” he said.
Arango
came in as Maleny began losing it again over the idea that Maria
Dolores was getting it on with Max. He told them that Maria Dolores
was a decent woman of dignity. Maleny sarcastically applauded,
accusing him of being in her web as well. Úrsula then told her
nasty daughter that this was correct. That this was Danny-Boy's
fault. He was trying to buy her favors by purchasing the store and
its contents. “But that's it.” she said to her weasely son.
“I'm at the end of my patience and that's the end of it and the
money I've been giving you. You will concentrate your efforts on
marrying Ivana and getting us out of this.”
Isidro
came in and announced that Max awaited without.
Maria
Dolores sat on a park bench and remembered seeing Danny-Boy
immediately after his car accident. And the night she almost let him
have her. She cried.
Danny-Boy
must have been in bed because he wasn't around when Max asked Úrsula
if she was aware of the relationship between him and Maria Dolores.
She said she was and that it was so that Maria Dolores could extort
money out of him. Max said “That's hard to believe because he told
her that you were all in ruin.”
He
had caught them all off-guard. For a second both Úrsula and Arango
were speechless. Maleny started saying that Daniel did that because
he wanted to get their money out of her head after he funded their
business. He told her to can it. He knew that Daniel had told many
lies and he said so. Úrsula asked whether they can all forget this
because Danny-Boy had broken up with her. “Your brother told me
you were going to talk to your parents. Tell them what a mistake
Daniel made.”
“Sorry,
Úrsula; I can't do that.”
“Please,
Max, we're family.”
“Unfortunately,
Daniel went too far. He told Ivana that I was involved with Maria
Dolores and I went over to tell her the truth.”
Úrsula
chose that moment to faint. The others helped her to the couch.
Leonardo
returned to Honoria's apartment. He found Fermin the Vermin going
through the dresser drawers.
“What
are you doing?” he shouted.
“Nothing.”
“How
is that nothing? Doña Honoria!”
Fermin
tried to say “No, no” but when Honoria came in Leonardo told her
he caught him going through Julian's things.
“Leave
me alone with him,” she said.
“I'm
not going anywhere.”
“Go;
your things will be fine.”
As
soon as Leonardo was out of the room she said to Fermin “There is
no alcohol to poison yourself with.”
She
wasn't accepting any excuses. He had to testify for Julian the next
day.
“I
made a bad decision,” he said.
“Don't
you realize what harm you did our son?”
She
made him go to bed without his bottle.
Úrsula
was sure it was all over and that Ivana would never forgive Daniel.
Arango told her this was nothing compared to what she had endured.
He mentioned her husband's death. If she could endure that they
could survive this.
Leonardo
couldn't understand how Honoria could endure Fermin's presence in her
home. She told him that it was necessary because he was due to
testify the next day. Leonardo didn't think she deserved that. Nice
kid.
Maleny
told Max she was going to stay with her mother. Max started to take
his leave. Then she accused him of not caring about her family. He
told her that he was in the middle of an important case and he also
needed to tend to Ivana. He left without kissing her.
She
went to Danny-Boy's room and ratted Max out to him. “I asked you
to think just a little about Mother and me,” she said. She was
snarling.
“Maleny,
I don't believe you're like this,” he said, nervously.
“I'm
serious about this,” she yelled as she slapped him. He got up
quickly. He grabbed her right arm with his left hand and seized her
jaw in his right. He shoved her back onto the bed, straddled her,
and was pulling off his belt when Arango rushed in. He tried to
separate them as Úrsula stared in shock.
The
following morning Doris called Ari, who told her about a sewing
machine. He told her it was a gift for Maria Dolores and her mother
from Orlando after the robbery. She hadn't heard about that and at
least was sympathetic. She talked about helping since she wasn't
working. He was hoping to get some action but she told him no
nookie.
Úrsula
and Maleny talked on the phone about Ivana. She was losing it
because of the magazine interview and was going nuts looking for
Daniel. “So go home and wake him up,” was Mommie Direst's
answer. “No, mother, listen. I'm home but Daniel isn't.”
Úrsula tried to take a breath, but then Alma arrived, saying she was
delayed by traffic.
Danny-Boy
arrived in the barrio just in time to stop Maria Dolores from getting
into a cab to go to the courthouse. He had the nerve to tell her he
loved her and to give her an engagement ring. She stared in
disbelief.

Thank you very much for this recap Urban. It seems Daniel has gone unhinged again, now with Maleny. Ursula must be proud.
I really enjoy reading your recap Urban, it feels like I'm watching the episode.

Urban,
The opening of your recap, and the recap itself, made me feel as if I was watching the episode all over again.
I must say that I wasn't sure if I would like this novela, but so far I'm really enjoying it: for Daniel's con game and MD's stupidity.
Now I have mixed feelings about whether or not Daniel really loves MD in a certain way. Not because he asked her to marry him at the end of the episode or because of his perfect con game, just because of some other actions on his part. Just a crazy feeling. But he'll end up hurting her because he is too narcissistic.

That was the first time I've gotten it posted on time. Here's hoping things will cool off soon so I can put in more dialogue, although sometimes a few of these actors mumble and it's hard to understand them.
Daniel only loves his own game, but may not realize it. He is going after MD because he can't have her. If he succeeds in boinking her that will be the end of the game and he'll dump her because he digs the chase more than the capture.
I wonder where he got this ring from, since Ursula has cut off the gravy train.
Max should be able to investigate the bankruptcy although Arango might not actually tell him anything about it.

Excellent recap, Urban! I feel like I watched the episode now. I'm glad to read that Max is being proactive trying to break through all the lies. It's a tough job. Dan and his family and paid henchies have done a good job at confusing the truth and spreading falsehoods, with a little assist from Josefa. Hope MD also gets a bit more proactive in trying to figure out who has been maligning her character and trying to ruin her life. Maybe start with the person she now knows has been lying to her the entire time she has known him-- Dan. How can she possibly think she can trust anything he says, now that she knows he's been lying about his life, family, and job. She doesn't know him at all. He'd jump right back to #1 suspect for the dress theft.
That's if the writers allow her to have a brain. I really hate when writers dumb down the women for the sake of plot points that could be done better.
I wish they'd allow Gabriel Soto a better haircut and a good shave. He looks much better that way. Love that they found an actor who really looks like his little brother.

Thank you UA, you take me to another place.
"Maleny stared as though she had been jabbed with a rabies needle"
Ivana nor MD is going anywhere they want Dan, nothing a ring won't fix.
They don't have to dumb down MD she is just a girl madly in love and Dan is her priority. She could have had the decency of allowing Honoria and Fermin to leave for court.
Max lied to Daniel. I believe he is wired to fight injustice but his preoccupation with MD is more than that.
I don't believe Dan capable of loving anyone. MD is unsullied and wants one for his collection and now he has some competition to make it more interesting.
Thought Dan was gonna kill Maleny.

Thank you Urban for this nice read. I am glad that your computer managed to work fine this time.
Dan sure is something. He has no scruples or shame at all. He quickly goes from a crime to a another. Even when beat up like Potato Fries ( Thanks a lot you Fat Guy) he still tries to kill his own sister. I hope he gets his deserved soon, atleast he should get dumped by both. It would really suck for MD and Ivana to fight for a scumbag's nonexistant heart when there are so many good guys around. Question is will Ivana still try to marry Dan to save the reputation of her company and herself?
I really like how Max stands up for others and himself. He sure knows how to tell the hard cold truth from his father. I loved how he told Dan to bugger off without shouting like a maniac.
I dont know what that Dan and Isela talk was about , are they planning something together or was it just a lashback?
I literarly loled when Arango confirmed MD's decency. Even Ursula said that she was decent but she quickly changed her mind when Max got around. Even though Arango is still shady for me he sounds quite nice and polite and he looks handsome .

Since this series is only 121 episodes and we're at #16 tonight there won't be a lot of suffering for long, I don't think.
Starting to wonder whether Danny-Boy stole his mama's ring.

UA--Thank you for the recap. It always clears up what REALLY took place for me. Oddly, as I read the recap, all the action takes place in my head in black and white. I wonder why that is.
The "chemistry" between Danny-Boy and Max is great.
Ivana is not only very much into her reputation and the that of her company, but I don't think she would be able to withstand the emotional humiliation of not marrying Danny-Boy because he's chasing a former lowly employee in VD. She's going to do what she can to keep him, at the cost of MD's reputation. Max to the rescue--we hope.
I never thought the Santibanez financial situation would be brought to light and so casually passed around both neighborhoods.
UA--You took the words right out of my mouth as I watched Susana admit she had been listening--for a metiche she deduced correctly and was quite blunt about it.
I'm already tired of MD. If she accepts the ring, I'll mute any scenes with her and Danny-Boy in them. I think D-B is trying to cut his losses. He knows he can't show up for a photoshoot all banged up with a good excuse. Is this another scheme to keep stringing MD along or is it for real? Naaah, not with his track record is it for real. So, how is he going to deal with Ivana? Tell her it was Max that beat him up? That would be a good one.
Can't wait for tonight.

I'm disappointed in MD more than anything though we really don't know her well yet. Everytime she tells Dan he is the love of her life, gazes lovingly in his eyes or weeps instead of shouting at the guy, I scream at her. I hope Max doesn't fall for her anytime soon cause he is in for a lot of heartache and ass chewing as she defends her love.
Should we be questioning the circumstances of Úrsula's husbands death?

I think Hector committed suicide, but the scene between Ursula and Arango last night says there is more to this than that.
Anita, I think Danny-Boy will try to hang this on Max, but I'm sure there will come a day when Ivana and Maria Dolores will compare notes and see that nothing Danny-Boy said to either of them stands up to the light of day.

Don't forget Maleny's flashbacks to being a little girl and seeing someone shoot a man. I think that might be their father getting shot, or perhaps he's the one doing the shooting and it's still somehow tied to his death.
Urban, thank you, this has been a funny and imformative eppy. Some truths were revealed. Danny the weasel was outed. That fight scene between giggett (maleny) and danny the weasel, was so rediculously funny, the comedy hour on steriods. Are these people that stupid? Uuuuuuum, yeah!!!!!!!
O Urban, "She put him to bed without his bottle". LOL:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D. That was funny. I think life would have been harder for honoria if fermin the vermin had stuck around. And hes got the nerve to say "he looks nothing like me"LOL!!! Thats a good thing, THANK God for that.
Maria Doloris better fall in love with Max, hes takein care of everybodys legal problems. He's gonna need some good lovein after this mess is over.
How did Ursula's hubby die, and where'd the money go.? and if there's no more money where are they getting the funds to keep that giant house running with all those rooms and lights? And paying the butler for his butling?

Thanks, Urban. Terrific recap. I second Nina's comment on this zinger: She put him to bed without his bottle." - lol
I'm starting to see why MD thinks she loves Dan. He's been working on her well, like loaning money to her when they haven't even been horizontal yet. And he does work that "nice earnest guy" thing in front of her.
But why Max is with Maleny is a mystery. Maleny is an egotist and snobby all the time in front of Max. But I don't begrudge her getting it on with Ari. He's hot.
Dan and Maleny fighting on the bed was very disturbing.

But why Max is with Maleny is a mystery. Maleny is an egotist and snobby all the time in front of Max. But I don't begrudge her getting it on with Ari. He's hot.

The bankruptcy hasn't been well-explained. It is possible that Hector committed suicide several years previously over something else, that whatever he left has been squandered away.
Like on that horrific jewelry of Ursula's, to start with. No o mention that Maleny and Danny-Boy go through money like sailors on shore leave.
I'm sure there's much more info to come.

Thank you UA, great job. Things sure are moving fast with this one.
Will Ivana believe Max about Dan and MD?
Perhaps it was Jacinto who wrecked the shop. I believed Gordo when he said he didn't do it.

I don't understand the Max/Melany thing either but she's got a key to his apartment and comes and goes as if she owns the place. I don't see in Max a guy head over heels in love with her as MD is over Daniel and Max has begun to call her out when she takes a swipe at him. More like they have been dating for several years, settled in, he is dedicated to his work and Malney gets bored and up to no good.
Tofie, I agree. He's definitely not head over heels in love with her and I don't see how he could be. She's possessive, crazy, much too close to her brother, and not even attractive. Every time she gets that wide-eyed look they should all make sure she's not holding a blunt object.
Remember when she almost whacked Ari with the tennis racquet? It wouldn't be surprising to me if she ended up killing Danny-Boy and Mommie Direst before this is over.

Tofie--You put your finger on it. Maleny's been bored for a long time, thus, shake a little Ari on to spice things up.
She complained early in the tn that Max wasn't paying enough attention to her and he promised her to cut back his hours to spend more time with her. Then when he did (show up at the club), she was annoyed because she was in the middle of entertaining Ari. Then the other time, he got a phone call (I think it was to help Orlando, Julian or MD) and that pithed her off, too. They have probably been living together off-and-on. At the beginning of the tn, Max was still open to marriage, but she didn't want to--yet. I can't remember if her conversation only took place within Ursula's and Danny-Boy's presence or what. Ari knows the score. He knows she's not into him for the long-haul.
I can't help but think Maleny was either present when he committed suicide or she inadvertenly killed her dad and they covered it up.
That sibling fight scene was very disturbing. Do they want us to start thinking Danny-Boy has anger management issues and he can become an abuser at the drop of a hat? I can already see that happening if Danny and MD do marry. It begins with something that provokes his jealousy. He beats her, he apologizes and promises never to do it again--until the next time.

Look at how he's been working at isolating her: sullying her reputation, telling lies about everyone to her and about her to everyone else. Half her nabe thinks the same things Josefa's been trying to convince herself of for however long and that's only been within a matter of days.
This is what abusers do.

Great recap Urban! People have alredy quoted my favorite line (Fermin going to bed without his bottle), but this line also spoke to me: Too bad he couldn't bottle and sell his chutzpah; that would have gotten his family out of ruin in a New York minute. I agree; Daniel can be super charming and seem so sincere. He might have been a great negotiations man for the family's company instead trying to charm his way into ladies' pants.
I SO wanted Max to walk in while Ursula was laying into Daniel! She told the whole truth and nothing but the truth and Max was waiting in the darn foyer missing all of it! Ugh!
Yeah, Max with Maleny is weird. I haven't seen a single scene between them that that really explains it, so my bet is that it's habit. I feel like they started seeing each other because their families run in similar circles (URsula probably pushed the initial dates) and just never stopped. Max is a convenient front man for Maleny to be seen in public with and Maleny just hasn't done anything bad enough yet for Max to feel justified in breaking up with her. In fact, he seems to feel a little guilty for not only putting time and energy into his work that his relationship with her, but wanting to work more than hang out with her.

Also, quick note: Dan didn't say MD had an abortion, he said "le alboroto la hormona" meaning she stirs his hormones ie she gets his motor going. I had to look that one up too because it sounds so much like the other thing.
Yeah, whats up with that weird thing between dannyboy and his twin maleny, BTW
I LIKE THE NAME MALENY, I 've never heard it before, where does it come from? I think I"ll
Look it up. It sounds good, but it could mean
Something bad, look at her actions. And also
ViceVersa. Shes a bad person with a good name.

Nina: Maleny is a variant of Magdalena.

Oh and BTW did you know that Arango is potrayed by Juan Carlos Barreto ? ( Macario in Lo Que La Vida Me Robo ) . I was shocked that I did not recognize him straight away with the beard and glasses.
Thank you Anon Aug. 4th, 8:45 PM. I did look it up, I don't remember all I read but it said something about that person being confident
Smart, being psychic, ←I don't know what thats about→↑. And some other interesting stuff That I don't see in maleny.

I watch the episodes on HuluPlus, and I swear the cut scenes or I sleep through parts. Anyone else have this problem ?
I missed the fight scene between Maleny and Daniel, didn't know they were twins, and never saw Maleny's flashbacks.
Thank goodness for such detailed recaps from our dedicated recappers.

Victoria--If Mal and Dan are really twins, then that explains a lot of their physical behavior. It doesn't excuse it, though. They are now adults.
It's Thursday now. I'm really bereft without the recap from Tuesday and now it seems Wednesday's is very late. Sob-sob. I wish I could help out.
All I can remember is the several chaste, but with some longing, hugs MD and Max have been sharing, with MD's big wide blue eyes looking up at him. That and all the exceptional lies the Santibanez family has been spewing out. My heart went out to Ivana. Why is it always Chocolates? I can put on weight with several croissants or scones with clotted cream and orange marmalade.

Pardon the intrusion. Tuesday and Wednesday recaps are actually posted. I understand late or missing recaps are frustrating, but life does happen, even to recappers, so please be gentle.
