Antes Muerta que Lichita #14 Friday 10/9/15 Roberto gets a huge bonus and throws a party at the orphanage for Mateo... however the move could backfire... ALicia did not get a bonus and she is not happy. Luciana has to watch herself because Daphne is watching...
Refrito:
Lichita walks away determined… walks outside, thinks she used to be invisible, now she will be different, is declaring this is the new Alicia… tells the camera she had no idea how difficult it was going to be or what it would cost her…
Luciana walks the hallway limping due to the broken shoe, yelling at all the employees asking where Lichita is… Chuchette and Nestor are telling Luciana they are NOT mocking her, but they are holding back their giggles.
Brisas is telling Lichita about Luciana’s reaction, LIchita would have loved to see that… Lichita is making copies of something… Brisas tells her she is up to something, even her eyes are glowing… and warns Lichita that every time she has tried something to go up the corporate ladder before, it has backfired on her. Lichita tells her now it will be different… she will be saying ‘yes’ to everything… (she looks really confident of getting away with what she is planning).
Luciana catches up with Lichita… yells at Lichita that her shoe campaign ideas were AWFUL!! Lichita plays innocent … Luciana keeps ranting at her… Lichita tells her ‘I am only a simple assistant… don’t tell me you copied my ideas…’ (Sandra comes over and asks Luciana if she copied LIchita’s ideas).
New:
Gumaro on phone with Roberto… Gumaro mocks Roberto on having to kiss a___ of Augusto (el mero mero). Roberto says he has to earn Augusto’s trust… he says he now is determined to become a creative director FOR REAL. Luciana denies denies to Sandra so Sandra turns it on Lichita, asking her if she is again raising false gossip on Luciana… Lichita apologizes and leaves… Luciana keeps selling to Sandra that she would never steal anything from ‘esta’.
Lichita runs into Roberto in hallway… Roberto tells Alicia that Luciana was really in trouble with Augusto but so was he, since he is responsible for the whole thing. Lichita is sorry she was not there to help him defend himself. Roberto says ‘but that was an accident, no?’ Lichita plays dumb and pretends yeah it was. They leave together. (does he know Alicia planned the ‘planted bad idea’ gig?)
At Gutierrez table, Nacho and Elsa are eating together… HE swears that he will keep poking the insurance company until he gets paid for the car. He is going to pay the power bill tomorrow. You know, they never let you slip even a day without paying. Elsa is afraid they will have the power cut off.
Back at office, Roberto can’t believe he is getting paid THAT MUCH.. Even Lichita is surprised, she guesses it is not only his salary but also a bonus for the Mas Grocery campaign. He says GUmaro will spend quite a bit of it on beer… (oopsie) Lichita asks if Gumaro can drink much beer… Roberto backpedals and says not that much… Lichita says she was not paid much at all… She was hoping she would get some money for the Mas campaign… this makes Roberto think.
At the house, Luciana breaks a flower vase… Daphne warns her that she will tell if Luciana keeps breaking stuff. Luciana wants Daphne to disappear because she is having a bad hair day. Daphne warns her that ‘this is my house and my parents… so you have to deal with me… or else you can go…’. Luciana threatens Daphne… As Luciana is leaving, Daphne whispers something, Luciana turns around and yells ‘I say the same about you!’ (sorry didn’t catch what Daphne said)
Roberto and Alicia are still talking about the Mas campaign bonus and lack of… Roberto tries to justify that he was the one that was paid even though it was her idea… He gives her some story about some guy who had to sell apples… its nonsense…( but I think if Roberto wanted to sell Alicia some sunblock in a rainstorm day she would buy) … HE leaves and she tells us ‘but even with all his storytelling, he wouldn’t make me dizzy with it….. or would he?’ .
Roberto and GUmaro spook away some more potential apartment buyers… with some bug repellent spray. Roberto shows Gumaro his pay stub… Gumaro asks if they made a mistake… Roberto says tomorrow he will buy Mateo a real nice present. Roberto says he admires Mateo because even though he has suffered being there in the orphanage, he has never complained or ranted at his dad.
Roberto says the hardest steps are still ahead in getting Mateo back. But Roberto is more determined than ever to become a real marketing/advertising pro. They have to shut the door on some dog outside.
Lichita is at home with Elsa paying bills… they could not pay for everything but that is how far the money went. Elsa says soon she will get her severance. Alicia says the most important stuff is taken care of. Elsa jolts saying she had forgotten Nacho’s eye drops… Alicia sees the bottle and says all he has left is one or two days. Elsa says doctor said he needed to use the drops for two months… and they are really expensive. Alicia says she will manage to buy them for him. She swears to Elsa that tomorrow she will go in the office and claim that payment (I believe she meant some bonus for the Mas campaign) no matter who she has to demand it from. Elsa gets concerned.
Roberto is at the orphanage giving Mateo and all the rest of the kids a huge surprise party. The director comes to thank him personally. HE says thank YOU all for giving all these kids so much love and caring.
We see Luciana talk on phone with her mom… (I have not seen this actress before). This woman looks like a middle-aged version of Luciana… She is in Buenos aires, Luciana asks her to come over, the woman says no you better come back here. The mom says it is a huge scandal since you just disappeared and broke the engagement with the duke… and they are even calling me a thief!!
At the orphanage, Mateo is really happy… but the social worker comes over and becomes the party pooper… she says instead of splurging money giving him a party, you should be careful with your steps… all that fake you are wrapping yourself in won’t stop Mateo from being adopted by a more honest and stable couple. A couple who are doing things right. Roberto gets really concerned…
At office Alicia is giving her speech to some older guy. She gives the guy a folder which, according to her, includes the moneys she is owed, mostly for the Mas campaign. The guy says he only takes orders, and she should present her case to her boss… and until he gets an order in writing, he can’t help her. She says ok I will see how I get it… but she is sure she will be back for her money eventually.
She walks away and puts a face like wondering what her next move is.
Roberto argues with the social worker that he is Mateo’s real dad… she says yeah you are, but … Roberto assures to her that no one would love Mateo more than him. She says its not about how much love, it is about you showing you can provide him a stable home. If the candidate couple were to fight for him, they would have plenty of ammu to fight with.
Alicia is writing a memo to someone and says to herself ‘either the easy way or the hard way…’
At the mansion, Luciana and Daphne are having breakfast with Bea… Augusto went to the office real eary. Luciana claims he never came home… Daphne asks her mom if her dad never really came home last night. Bea is not in the mood to talk about that and just leaves. Luciana won’t confirm to Daphne what she just said.
Roberto assures to Mateo that each day they will be closer to the day they will be together for good… just like superheroes… invisible… no, invincible!!! Invincible!! Roberto assures to Mateo that together they are invincible!...
Luciana is leaving for work but first she wants to make amends with Daphne… Daphne can read her well and says what she wants is so Daphne won’t tell her dad anything bad about Luciana. Luciana stretches her hand to Daphne… Daphne finally gives in even though she does not shake hands with Luciana. Luciana puts the last needle in the wound saying she is sure that Augusto did not spend the night outside. Daphne is sure it is not what Luciana is insinuating, he just stayed working late.
Alicia is at Roberto’s office… she is asking him to give her a hand with that. Roberto says sorry but I can’t add wood to the fire… can’t risk it. You don’t even work directly for me anymore. I need to be alone. Alicia leaves but turns around and comes right back. She demands that he owes her for the Mas and OkiOki campaigns. He claims at the time she was working with him they never really got a new account signed. Besides, if someone owes her money in this agency, it is NOT him. (Alicia leaves in a huff, so would I have! At this point Roberto is being a real a___)
Magos is picking up Ximena from school, she is ranting that it is easy for the teacher and school to be demanding their money. She encourages Ximena to ask Alicia to ‘do her miracle magic’… (YIKES!)
At office, Alicia is struggling with the plastic balls while she keeps arguing with Roberto about all the financial struggles her family is going through. Roberto looks like he cares… but she is too upset to do anything but more whinning about him not caring.
Luciana comes to Augusto’s office… she wants to see him, but his secretary says he is not there… Luciana keeps trying to get info from her whether he worked late and spent the night at the office or not. Someone calls asking for Sandra and the secretary says she has not seen her either… Luciana puts two and two together about Sandra and Augusto possibly being together…
Alicia on phone with Ximena… seems Ximena needs a dress/costume for some festival that is this weekend… Alicia says she will see what she can do… you don’t worry. Ximena cries on Magos shoulder, Magos rather than supportive is a bit miffed at Ximena getting upset.
Roberto walks around and anyone can tell he is thinking about Alicia, possibly wondering how he could help.
Luciana and Chuchette talk… Luciana asks Chuchette if Augusto has some ‘girlfriends’ around. Chuchette gets all proper and says Augusto would be incapable… Luciana does not buy that answer. Luciana says you defend him so much that I would not be surprised that between him and you could have ever been…. Chuchette gets offended and leaves in a huff. Luciana looks like she just got her answer.
Folks, I just had a phone call that prevented me from paying much attention to the last segment. But I do remember seeing that Luciana got to talk to Augusto but he was not very lenient with her… and she ended up being upset at her office.
Meanwhile Alicia talked to Roberto again and seems like he encouraged her to go talk to Luciana. She went over to Luciana and found her upset… Alicia again offered her hand as ‘friends’ for support and Luciana seemed to be more willing to comply…
IF someone can fill in the details of the last segment I would really appreciate it. The call was very important since I am again searching for my next career position and this was a really good friend from a previous job who wants me to come work for the same company she now works for… wish me luck.

Great job, Marta! I just watched my recording, and of course missed the last minute or so. But the big thing that happened is that Roberta transferred a wad of money to Lichita's account, and tested her that he does understand what it's like to be a kid in need. Lichita goes to see him to apologize (because she forgot about his background as an orphan), and to thank him for the money. They are friendly again until he says he did it for her family (she interprets that to mean he DIDN'T do it for HER), and she gets huffy with him again and asserts she deserved that money because the Mas slogan was her idea.
Luciana tried to blackmail Agusto into being lenient on her at work, and she would keep quiet about his affair and even provide an alibi for him at home. It was an epic fail, and we learn he threatened to fire her. Lichita barely suppresses a smile, until Luci reminds her that as her assistant, if Luci sinks, Lichita sinks with her.

Oh, and one of the expenses Rob is saving his money for are the lawyer fees he'll need to pay for the process of getting Mateo back.
Marta, this was fantastic.
"I think if Roberto wanted to sell Alicia some sunblock in a rainstorm day she would buy)" summarizes Alicia's feelings for Roberto perfectly. Unfortunately for Alicia!
There were many sweet moments tonight. Mateo. The party. Mateo. The supportive teacher. And of course, Roberto helping Alicia.
Alas, the social worker (Medusa) was all fire, foaming at the mouth with her threats. This was not an all expense paid vacation, but a joyous celebration with glorious cake and pure fun. There are places to economize but this was not one of them.
Luciana is skidding but is far from falling. I look forward to her gradual demise and expect Dafne to be in the thick of things. Can't wait!
Marta, I’ve not seen the actress playing Luciana’s mother either. But, in the quick scene, I did notice a picture of what might have been a young girl who appeared to be full faced. Could that have been Luciana and could she possibly be harboring a secret past including a few additional pounds? Or, have I totally lost my mind and there is nothing of the sort transpiring? I just made myself laugh.
Vivi, glad Roberto is saving his money for a lawyer. Seems as though he won't be getting any votes of confidence from the social worker who seems to have her mind made up...

Thanks, Marta, for tonight and to CeCe for last night. Marta, I hope things go well with your job search!
Always interesting to see little revelations of character and backstory details. I'm happy to see Alicia standing up for herself. She will have to walk a fine line in punishing Luciana without destroying herself. Dafne and Luciana throwing/dodging good-bye kisses were so funny!

Marta, thank you for another speedy but excellent recap. Good luck on the job front!
Vivi, thanks for the last minutes.
Random thoughts:
Wow! Swings in the workplace. Reminds me of being a kid when my uncle put up a swing for me between the kitchen and dining room of his house so I could swing in the winter.
I really like that they are starting to give us more background on Luciana. Diana, interesting comment about the photo of the "full faced" little girl. I think you might be on to something.
It looks like Roberto is going to end up in a legal battle to be able to keep his son. The social worker sees him as a joker: she told him his "ji ji's and his ja ja's" weren't going to serve him well in keeping his son.
I did not like that the responsibility for Ximena's costume again fell on Alicia (with her idea to get some fabric so it could be made by Elsa) while Magos just looked on completely inept and uninterested in being a part of it except to ask for $$$.
I laughed at Luciana and Dafne holding pinkies at the table rather than holding hands as Beatriz said grace. Also their scene on the sofa was great.
I did not like Roberto giving Alicia the run around about owing her money for the "Más" campaign with his "Hubiera does not exist" schtick. It was funny though.
Augusto stole every scene his was in with his imposing presence and delivery.
Roberto does have great big puppy dog sad eyes.
It was great to see Alicia blow off Néstor when he told her to go get them coffee.
So Alicia and Luciana are going to gave to be a team? and a successful one at that? It will be interesting.
Another great episode.
Vivi, thanks for the last minutes.

Thanks for the tidbit about the photo of the girl with a few more pounds... this sounds so much like the Francis past history secrets of her parents corner cafe store humble status.
And I bet Luciana and her mother were not always that rich either...
I am with you all in the 'puppy sad face' abilities of Roberto.
Daphne and Luciana... now there is a 'sibling rivalry' of sorts that will keep us entertained.
Yes, this novela, although some people would consider it too caricaturesque... has enough emotion and drama with adult themes to keep us watching. even if the bullying by Luciana, Nestor and Chuchette targetting Alicia gets to my nerves at times... esp Chuchette and Nestor, who use Luciana as their shield. little do they know that if Luciana falls, they will too.
I wonder now just how much trouble this duke secret can bring to Luciana at just the right time.
Took me a while to get used to Maite in the ugly wig but i went through the same thing in Yo soy Betty la fea with Ana Maria Orozco wearing that long hair bent over the forehead and then clipped over her head with plenty of oily shine.

Vivi... LOL about your comment that the tablet 'corrects' testing by replacing with testing. too funny.
Daphne and Luciana holding pinkies at the dinner table... too funny, Jarifa! i missed that!

Thank you so much for your swift and detailed recap, Marta! Good luck on the job search. I hope you'll keep us posted. I'm sending you good vibes.
You are so right about this show. It has so many themes to keep us watching. Even with the difficult to watch bullying, I still want to tune in every night and I'm always a little sad when the closing credits roll. The characters are really growing on me...even the bad guys.
Speaking of closing credits, we still haven't gotten opening credits. Is Uni cutting them or are they really not going to have opening credits for this show? Does anyone know?
So what kind of vibe are y'all getting from Sandra? I still can't stop thinking that she's not all bad. And she looked so sad when she was calling to ask about Elias (I hope that means he'll be back...)

Great recap Marta, thank you and best of luck.
Love this show too, a whole lot. I like the caricatures and how these actors play over the top straight up. Think of it, other day Ingrid Martz seductively kissed the glass wall and had her face, nose and mouth smashed against it.
My heel is still at Roberto's neck but I'll let him breathe a little since he helped Alicia.

Marta, I was so wrapped up in your marvelous recap, I failed to wish you the best of luck in your job search. Please let me do that now.
The interviewing process is difficult and can be discouraging. As a former HR director, that there are often several qualified candidates and the final decision often rests on a very small detail. The good news is that you only need one person to hire you. From your spirit and intelligence, I know the right one will come along.

Thanks everyone for the good wishes about my job search. I have several opportunities that i am working on, one of them is especially attractive since it is for working from home and with my mother living here with me that would be a very good arrangement. I am affirming i will get some solid offers by end of month.
Help me somebody. Sandra and Elías were married at one time right? When did that relationship end?
Sandra and Augusto have been fooling around for 10 years so she probably was cheating on Elías but I wonder if he ever knew. Elías continued to work for her and Alicia worked for him and bet she helped him with many ideas. Wonder why Sandra called for Elías.

Marta, I hope it goes well with the job search! Thank you for the recap. I'm glad Roberto eventually gave Alicia the money she deserved, but it doesn't keep me from being annoyed with all his justifications to her earlier in the episode. It's one thing when you're working on a team or have an agreement that "I'll come up with the ideas and you do the presentation," but this was just theft.
Thank you Martaivett---I really did enjoy the weekend read.
Happy job hunting and good luck---working from home? that got me thinking. Would I be able to get all of the companies work done or would I get distracted with things around the house. I think that it would be a constant struggle.
You did have a comment that for sure caught my attention. It was something about Maite in that ugly wig. Well that "ugly" wig has been driving me crazy for two weeks now. The funny thing is that I have always liked short women's hair styles and yes, that style. I have been asking myself each night, why doesn't this one look good. It looks terrible. Is it her eyebrows? Must be. But then again eyebrows are not a hair style. When Maite sang with RBD at their big concert in Rio, she had a similar hair style--somewhat short and straight but she looked great. So what's the problem now. AH!!! It's the terrible gangs across her forehead that ruins it, I'm sure of it now. Get rid of the bangs. There were no bangs in Rio and she looked super.
I'm loving the roadblocks that Daphne is putting up. Alicia and Daphne are going to make a good team against Luciana. They will drive her nuts I bet.
Thanks for your help Vivi.

Thalia will sing the theme song.
We're four-ish weeks behind. So it may be a while before we're singing along.
