Muchacha Italiana Viene A Casarse #80 Wed 12/16/15 (Mex 111) Talk about putting the cart before the horse!
Eloisa's doctor says the results are conclusive--she has anemia. Fed's relieved. Mostly she needs to change her diet to get more iron…and stop drinking coffee. "To hell with that!" says El. Also, her BP is high, so she needs her meds upped for that. That's apparently the purpose of the magic drops. And if she doesn't take care of herself, she'll end up having a stroke. El kicks everyone out of her room. Hey, that's a great way to lower her blood pressure instantly!
More dreamy talk of the future from Pedro and Fi. "Nothing can separate us." "If you ever leave me, I'll die." Pedro makes a joke about going old and grey and Fi reminds him he's already got grey hair. More non-honeymoon nookie begins.
Gael has Gi drink a big glass of water and then asks what happened. She says she came looking for him in the sauna and got locked in. He asks point-blank if something happened with Os and Aitana. Aitana is lurking in the hallway, so she doesn't tell him and scolds him for continuing to ask her. And really, if Gael is convinced that they did something, then why ask her?
I like Diana's dress, though it's a little on the short side. Vitto doesn't even notice because he's busy plotting how to recapture Fi. Diana's attempts at seduction are interrupted by a call from Anibal. Big Bad Daddy's coming home, so she'd better get the bed ready for him…at her place. Say what?!
Santino gives Julieta the news that their daughter didn't die in the accident and a couple in Italy took her in. He's sure they'll find her soon. Julieta sobs with joy and Sergio looks like he's mentally patting himself on the back for being the good guy. Try doing that a little more often, Sergio. Just saying.
More lovey talk from Pedro while Fi sleeps.
Diana tells Anibal he's sure as hell not staying at her place. So he now has 2 things to threaten her with--he'll tell Vitto she stole the bail money from him, and that Beto's their child and she lied to him. Oh, and also, he's been in jail, so she'd better be ready for a night of epic shagging. Classy, Anibal. Classy. When the call is over, Vitto emerges from his office and asks if she's ok. Diana brushes him off and says she's going home.
Fed celebrates El's health with Dante. Or tries to. She thinks Dante should just screw up with the drops so El has a stroke and once she's impaired she'll sign whatever Fed wants! Dante is NOT down with this plan. It's too easy to screw up and kill her by accident and who would look like the guilty party? He insists they have to find the missing paperwork.
Fi wakes up to the sound of chirping birds, but no Pedro. She goes down to the kitchen looking for Pedro, but finds the caretaker instead. Pedro left early, but didn't say where he was going. She decides to cook Pedro breakfast.
Gi is looking around nervously as she enters the employees kitchen. Simona thinks it's because she misses Fi. Simona is sure Fi's doing just fine with her Italian hottie. She wonders if maybe she now has a chance with Vitto. No, Simona, no! Go for Domingo! Oh, spoke too soon…she thinks Domingo is more than an acceptable backup plan, plus younger, so he's "just what the doctor ordered!" Simona rushes to go set San Antonio on his head so she can hook one of those two hotties before someone else does! (Don't ask me why San Antonio is in charge of hooking hotties, but he is. And if you want him to work faster, then you need to put his statue upside down or take the baby Jesus away from him. I don't know what happens if you do both, but if you try it, let me know. For science.) Benito startles Gi as she's serving herself some chilaquiles. He asks about Fi and she angrily says she has no idea where her sister is and wishes everyone would stop asking!
Pedro's out shopping for dresses for Fi. White dresses. Hmmm….
Fi has breakfast all served up, but once again she sees Heriberto, the caretaker, before Pedro. And no, he hasn't called or anything. He left his cell phone behind. She tries calling Fidel, but who should hear Fidel's phone ringing in the employee kitchen but Os. Fi hears his voice and hangs up. Now she's sure they'll be found. Fidel wanders in with the paper and a roll of TP that he puts up on a high shelf. Seriously. He swears Pedro hasn't called him before this. Os insists he return the call, but Fi is afraid to answer and turns the phone off. Os fumes and then tells Fidel he'd better be at Os' service. He tries to get out of it by saying that Pedro might call and need him, but Os won't take "no" for an answer.
Rey came by the restaurant to check on Vitto. He's still steamed about Fi. And then intrigued when Rey tells him that Pedro also didn't get married and is missing.
Fidel goes to Eloisa for backup, but she agrees that he should work for Os. Fidel tells her that Pedro tried to call him, but the call got cut off, so he wants to be available if Pedro calls again. Eloisa tells him to absolutely NOT go anywhere with Os and tell Benito to meet her in the dining room in 10 minutes.
Julieta is in a great mood and Sergio's happy to see it. She's still worried, though, that this is another false lead. She's going to Italy with Santino tomorrow so they can investigate together. Sergio does not look happy about this!
Another Angeles family breakfast. Pedro's missing. Poor Aitana. Fed mocks Aitana. Rox insults Fed. Eloisa makes Benito a chauffeur again. Oh, but he's not going to be driving Rox. He'll drive Gianna to school and Gael and Rox will take another car. El warns Gael and Rox not to canoodle. Whatevs…that's all over and Rox can't wait to get to school. OK, fine, she can't wait to get the hell away from Fed. Dante arrives with The Drops.
Os calls Aitana while Sonia eavesdrops. She doesn't like hearing him plot evil with another woman. Especially when it sounds like evil's not all he's plotting. And when he won't let her in on it, beyond saying they're convinced Gianna knows where Fi is. I'm distracted by the giant pearls on her dress. Is she a Doctor Who fan? Is this a Dalek homage? They look uncomfortable. Os insists this is the best way to make himself indispensable to El--by making nice with Benigno…and his daughter. He pacifies her jealousy with snogging, then warns her not to become a headache for him. Oh, that Os. What a charmer.
Pedro finally gets back home. Fi tells him she did something terrible--she called Fidel and Os answered! He says there's nothing to worry about--she didn't talk, and there's no way to find out where they are. He gives her a box and tells her he wants her to wear what's inside. Someone will come pick her up and he'll see her later. She gripes at him to take his damn phone this time, and not take too long. She heads upstairs and Pedro calls Fidel to tell him everything's ok, but he needs help with something.
Somehow, with all the running away and the last-minute shopping, Fi picked up a lip gloss. Pedro's present is a short floral frock. A white frock. With flowers embroidered on it. In white….
Gi is startled by a knock on her door, but it's just Fidel, to tell her she's not going to school today. She needs to help him with something Pedro asked him to do. It's super secret. "SUPER SECRET!" I think she missed the point there.
Os tells Aitana about the mystery phone calls. They're sure Fidel and Gi know more than they're telling. Benito makes the mistake of wandering through the game room to ask if they've seen Gianna and innocently volunteer the info that Fidel is out getting one of the cars ready. He leaves and Aitana and Os twirl their mustaches. I was hoping they'd be so stupid they wouldn't get any farther than that, but instead they decide to go find out what Fidel is doing.
San Antonio brought Vitto to Simona's yard. Well, ok, to the foyer of Rancho los Angeles. She turns on the charm, but Vitto is distracted and insists on talking to Eloisa. Simona gets him to wait in the living room while she announces him. Dante is counting out The Drops and I think this is a perfect excuse to get Eloisa out of the room so Fed can mess with them, but instead, Vitto comes in right on Simona's heels asking where Pedro is. Fed's thrilled--it's like dinner theater. At breakfast. Eloisa tells him they have no idea where Pedro is. Since she's gotten up for the table, Fed takes the opportunity to dole out some Evil!Drops. And then posit that it's highly suspicious that one bride and one groom went missing from each wedding, hm? Simona starts to clear the table and notices an uneaten chile, which she gleefully takes a bite of, but that pepper was, like, hardcore! So she reaches for the water glass full of both Magic!Drops and Evil!Drops. Fed looks on in horror, as does Eloisa, though not for the same reasons. Eloisa hopes Simona's pressure doesn't drop too much!
Aitana comes out to the SUV before Fidel can make his getaway. She asks for help moving some chairs and he gives in, leaving Os to look for clues in the SUV. He finds that the address to Pedro's mom's "cabin" is programmed into the navigation system. Fidel and Aitana come back outside and Fidel droves off. Os laughs that he knows where Pedro is now.
Fi emerges from the bedroom in her lovely frock and a floral headband. Heriberto is wowed by her appearance and says he's supposed to take Fi somewhere, but he won't tell her where.
Simona serves Vitto, El, and Fed coffee and Vitto continues harping on his theory that Pedro and Fi are together and he HAS to talk to Pedro. Simona collapses. That's it! Fed better go down! If she wants to kill off Eloisa, I don't really give a crap, but now she's messing with my homegirl!
Out at a little beach, pink flower petals outline a stage where musicians are set up. A stone walkway leads down to the edge of the water and Heriberto escorts Fi most of the way. There's a small wooden dock, decorated with flowers and greenery and white fabric draped over poles. Fidel and Gianna are waiting and Fi rushes to hug Gianna. Gi hands Fi a bouquet of flowers and Fidel says they were invited there to be witnesses. Pedro rides up on a jet ski, looking kind of goofy in a cream-colored vest over a blue shirt with a blue bow tie and asks if Fi's ready to marry him.

Well, it looks like Pedro is trying his best to do what someone suggested earlier - complete a civil ceremony with Fi.
I am interested in how Vitto will react to this. His obsession with tracking down Fi and Pedro is starting to get on my nerves. I wish he would drink some of Fed's drops.
Wonder how long it will take former lovers to track their lost baby girl to the present day Fi, and I wonder if the Angeles family will fall all over themselves when they find out about her blood line.
Thanks again, 5ft.

Here's hoping nobody interrupts this ceremony because I think we are guaranteed a Pedro Jr and/or Fiorella Jr out of this pre-honeymoon. If Assvaldo doesn't get there in time you know he will try to do something anyway and screw it up.
Pedro should not have disappeared like that. Fiorella is too vulnerable now.
I believe Santino said that the couple who took their daughter was in southern Italy. Again, I don't think there are any false leads here.
Diana is getting some payback here, but I think it's more than she deserves.
So with you on that! No more messing with Simona! And loved your quip about "epic shagging" being in store for Diana. Poor gal is having to give out going and coming.
I thought Saint Anthony was the saint of lost causes, but actually he's the saint of lost people or lost things. Whatever...I certainly hope it brings romantic luck to Simona as she is one of the most charming characters on this show. Maybe the only one. Nah, I still have a soft spot for Fidel, in spite of his obstruction at the church.
Thanks for squeezing out another excellent recap, written with verve and sass. You're a trooper!
I'm with Judy, you could bump off half the characters in this and I wouldn't care, but do not mess with Simona. She has been nothing but sweet and endearing through this whole thing. She needs to back away from the Vitto thoughts and hone in that little dumpling Dom.
The fact that Os and the Anti-Mexican Hairless are rubbing closer and closer is nauseating. What this dudes sex appeal is just baffles me. He even talks sloppy. so now they know where Petey is...PLEASE don't have the tired cliche of coming in just as the nuptials are ready to be done. I might hurt someone at that point. I think it would be far more fun to have them married in the civil ceremony and make Eloisa burst a blood vessel ( that could help Fred's cause) and have the walking mop do another of her epic tantrums. Some of the best comedy we get on this show.
Do not understand why Gi doesn't confide in Gael on those threats. Or Fidel, or someone!! At least Gael is suspicious that now Aitanna may be in on it so if something does happen to Gi, he knows who to go to. Bring scissors my dear...for the patio. we'll thank you later.

Glad Gi got out of the sauna before anything really grave happened to her. I hate Os and Aitana!
"El kicks everyone out of her room. Hey, that's a great way to lower her blood pressure instantly!" Excellent...
So many horrid characters here -Aitana is fitting in nicely, isn't she?
daisy, I'm also very fearful that Os will arrive in the nick of time to disperse the small but happy wedding party. It would be a shame, for them and for us. I really don't want to endure a huge wedding with so many who don't wish the couple well. They might as well get married at Pedro's and have a bar-be-que out back.
If I were Sergio, I'd be worried too. Jetting off with your (handsome) ex to find your child would make me nervous too.
I hope Simoneta is all right!
Diana
Add me to the list of those who do not want to see this bodus interruptus between Fi & Pedro.
However, I fear Os & Aitana will get there in time to put the brakes on the ceremony.
Surely Simona will be okay! They cannot let anything bad happen to her.
Bentio is sometimes very annoying, he aught
To go away right now.
Why is it that fidel leaves his phone on the
Kitchen table for any and everybody and his
Brothers cousin to rumage through it? And
What is it with the toilet paper on a high shelf
? In the kitchen? Thats the second time I've
Seen him with that. maybe after he eats he has to go to the bathroom so he put the tissue there to be sure theres toilet paper in
There?!?!. :[○ Ok moving away from the tissue Issue. I hope simona is ok, fed looks
Worried. Like shes thinkin "oh great now I gotta get some more poison because she drank it all". The girl is loopy.
Hanna
Aitana and Assvaldo's abuse of Gianna is just horrible and I agree she needs to tell Gael. Why is these couples always pledge to be another's all in all and stay together through thick and thin but as soon as they come to some challenges all the pledges are forgotten!
You know I'm with you, Hanna, on wanting to enjoy the love while it lasts. I guess we'll see if they can be creative and do something other than Ait and Ass show up!
