Pasión y Poder #19 Monday 20151130 Once Again, Eladio Proves that Erick Road the Short Yellow Limousine to Prep School Every Day!

Full Disclosure!  This recap is  totally out of order and I don't know what Dani's post said.  I didn't see it.  Sorry!

The Day Before

Gomez Luna Clan

Julia asks Eladio for a divorce.  Julia tells him that she doesn't care if he resumes boinking Montseratt, as long as he keeps his mitts off of her.  Eladio tells her that she will live in fear in this house if she doesn't start being nice to him soon.  Julia says that she has always lived in fear.  She feared her father and now she fears her husband.  You'll have to come at me better than that buddy!  Eladio tells Julia that her attitude towards him determines how he treats David.  Before he leaves the room, he asks her to think about it. 

Eladio checks the GPS on Julia's phone and tells his hunky body guard Efrain, to keep a close eye on Julia.  I will be keeping an even closer eye on Efrain 'cause he is so fine.  Anyway, Eladio tells Efrain, the hunky body guard, that Julia's life has been threatened and he wants her stalked.  If she goes to the bathroom, Efrain had better be in the next stall.  He stresses that Efrain's life depends depends on it. 


Gabriela rushes into the living room aka the room where Franco normally mauls and gropes her.  Lucky for us, this time she's not there for that.  Instead, she finds David there and shows him the post that Daniela made.  Gaby tells David that both sisters are witches.  She also tells him about Nina insulting Julia in the nail spa.  She said that Montenegro is richer than your dad and that he has a bigger penis.  What?  No one attacks his momma and gets away with it!  David has now bought the hatin' on the Montenegros train ticket.   

Up in her bedroom, Julia tells Gaby that she asked Eladio for a divorce.  Gaby can't believe that she finally stood up for herself.  Julia tells Gaby that her father abused he mother, and she married a man just like her father. 

After hanging up the phone, Eladio screams for Franco!  He has learned that the Hautulco shipment has been stopped even though he paid in advance.  He tells Franco that he will lose a lot of business and money and instructs him to do something immediately.  David rushes in after hearing his father screaming at Franco.  Eladio tells David what happened and asks if he now understands why he punched Art in the nose.  David now agrees with Eladio that the Montenegros are the family from hell.  They are so bad, that they make David feel good about being a Gomez Luna. 

David tells his Eladio that he loves him and will help him destroy the Montenegros.  They hug it out.  Eladio almost tears up, so he has asked that we talk amongst ourselves while he composes himself.    Here's a mystery:  Both Eladio and Artie dress up  in suits to work in their home offices.  Please discuss.   

Eladio says that this is the happiest day of his life.  Eladio explains his version of the Gomez-Luna/Montenegro feud to David.  He worked hard Montenegro Sr, but when Art came to work for him, Art got jealous of the relationship that Eladio had with his father.  Once Sr. died, Eladio worked for Art.  Art was jealous of Eladio's success and fired Eladio for embezzlement.  Eladio was left penniless.  A man mobster named Frank Smith, God rest his soul (Eladio had him whacked) had faith in Eladio and took a chance on him.  Eladio goes over to a small chest of drawers and removes a picture of Mr. Smith.and shows it to David.  David is surprised to learn that his father's business is legit.  He's always thought that Eladio was shady.  Eladio tells him that Montenegro stopped the shipment by threatening the vendor. Unbeknownst to Eladio, Julia is outside listening.  David agrees to work for Eladio.  Eladio welcomes David aboard.  He's happy that Art strong-armed the vendor because it brought the family together again.  Eladio finally notices Julia and tells her of the good news.  Julia give David a hug.  Eladio reminds Julia that she is keeping his part of the bargain by being nice to Dave.  Julia is happy but says that she needs to see more before she will sleep with trusts him again. 

Franco returns to Eladio's office and says he did what Eladio instructed him to do.  Eladio tells Franco that David will be working with them. 

Julia returns to her bedroom and tells Gabriela that Dave is now working with Eladio.  She didn't ask for the divorce because everyone is happy happy joy joy! 

Eladio, Julia, Franco, David and Gabriela are having a celebratory toast at a swanky restaurant.  Eladio and David toast to their common goal.  They will destroy Montenegro.  Julia doesn't want David to inherit a part in the family feud.  She wants her son to work on normal projects.  The men agree that the only good Montenegro is a dead Montenegro.  They will squash that business.  Franco says that he and Dave will work together.  Eladio agrees that they will win now that Dave's on board. 

The family returns home home and everyone goes off to bed except Gaby and Franco.  Franco tries to pull Gaby into their sexual tryst room aka the living room, Gaby is not in the mood for any francofurter tonight.  She reminds him that she doesn't like boinking in her aunt's house.  She asks Franco why he's upset.  He wants to know why Dave hates the Montenegros all of a sudden.  Why does Dave get to work with Eladio?  Gaby reminds him that Dave is Eladio's only son.  Franco asks Gaby if she knows how David found out that Eladio punched Art.  Gaby says that she's dropped it.  It doesn't matter anymore.  Anyway, Gaby says that they maybe they can boink tomorrow night.  She's needs her beauty sleep.  Franco gets all pissed because Dave is in the house and now he will have to take another cold shower. 


Montenegro Clan

Once again, Augustin and Art are wasting time and money discussing Art's feelings about Julia because that's what rich and powerful business men that run international companies sit around doing all day.  Artie gets on the phone and calls some guy named Raul.  He tells Raul stop the shipment of the Hautulco Construction Project materials to Gomez Luna.  Arturo threatens him with the loss of Montenegro business if he ships a hammer to Hautulco. 

He's not getting through to Arturo.  Augustin accuses Arturo of trying destroy Eladio because of Julia, not because it's good for business.  He also says that Arturo is pretending to be mad at Nina because he can't have Julia.  Arturo agrees.  He says that Aug's 100% right.  Augustin then points out that Julia's situation is her fault.  Preach!  If Julia is being "abused", she is the one who married Eladio out of revenge for Susana!  So what if Eladio paid her father's debts?  Amen! Julia knew that Eladio was Art's arch enemy and she married Art's arch enemy on purpose! Let the choir sing!  She's not victim!  Reverend Augustin tells the truth, someone pass the offering plate!  Art says that Julia shouldn't have to pay the rest of her life for making one mistake.  Augustin takes a shot of tequila. 

Regina is in her bedroom working when Connie comes in and shows her the post.  Regina is certain that Dani had something to do with it.  She says that she will not confront Dani or defend herself because she wants David to know that they can never, ever, ever be together again.   

Daniela visits her father in the home office.  Dinner is ready!  She tells him that she's ready to take her punishment and she won't complain.  Art says that he'd better not hear her mouth for the next 15 days.   

In the dining room, Nina is in the process of deflecting questions about the wedding.  Artie, Augustin, Daniela, and Regina walk in.  Nina jumps all over Regina for causing a scandal.  Regina tells Daniela that she knows all about the post.  She knows Dani hacked her account, but she took it down.  She tells Dani not to ever speak to her again.  Dani tells her dad that Gina is being a big fat meanie!  Later, alone in her bedroom, Regina looks at pictures of David and her kissing in Queretaro. 

Once again, Miguel is inappropriately hanging out in his brother's bedroom with his brother's wife.  Connie hands him Erick's passwords.  Petra, the maid, runs in without knocking, tells them that dinner is ready.  No one tells Petra that it is inappropriate for the maid to enter the room without knocking?  She wants them to come now so it doesn't get cold.  Petra feels the tension and tries to hang out, but they rush her out of the room.  Miguel wants to know why Connie still wants him to investigate Erick.  Connie tells him that she's knocked up.  Miguel asks if she's sure she's preggers because it's rare that he hears her husband having sex with her.  Not that Miguel stalks her or anything.  Ahem.  But, if her were her stalker, he figures that he would have heard them having sex more often.  Erick enters the room and rightly asks what the hell Miguel is doing in his bedroom alone with his wife.  Connie tells Erick that they were just chatting.  Erick tells her to stop chatting with the bastard.  Connie corrects him and says that he is your brother, he's not a bastard.  Question!  If dumb Dani can hack into Gina's account, why can't a college educated man with a masters degree in computer science figure out how to hack into his brother's account. 


WTF Family

For the love of goodness?  Will someone please kick this woman's bucket already?  I mean really.  Clara and Maribel are talking about how Gisela upset her kid by asking a lot of questions about her health.  Francisco walks in the Alcapulco tickets.  He's got another surprise for Maribel!  His father is a doctor and will give her a second opinion for free.  They all go out and celebrate with tacos.  Francisco's paying!  Gisela comes in and angrily says that Maribel doesn't deserve this!  She doesn't deserve the free second opinion, the free tacos or the free Acapulco tickets?  She didn't make herself clear.   The next morning, Gisela follows Maribel, Francisco and Clara down the street.  Maribel has seen Francico's doctor, they are just waiting for the results.  She has her meds.  So what?  Who cares?

The Next Day


A Bar in Mexico City

Erick meets with two men who want a copy of the proposal.  He says that he is not sure that he wants to betray his father.  They tell him to check his bank account.  Someone hands him a tablet and he agrees to provide the proposal.  He stresses that the deposited amount is only a down payment.    They congratulate him on stabbing his father in the back.  Once they leave, Erick is relieved that the down payment will cover the check that he wrote to the Ratt. 

Erick calls Montseratt.  He wants to tell her that he's almost rich but she doesn't pick up her phone. 

The Ratt Hole

The Ratt can't pick up because she has a visitor.  Eladio is there to discuss the abortion of the fake baby.  She tells him that Aldo is going to the clinic with her.  Eladio says that Aldo had better keep his mouth shut.  Outside of Montseratt's apartment, Eladio gets a call from Franco who informs him that Art's probably got the vote to be prez of the association.  Eladio tells him to investigate Art and get some dirt on him.  Franco says that he will go after the kids.  He also tells Eladio that Dave didn't come to work today.  Eladio says that he doesn't have to explain to Franco why he hired Dave. 

Rehab Facility 

Artie and Nina accompany Dani to her doctor's visit.  The doctor asks Dani why she's a lush.  Dani blames it all on Art and family problems.  Nina and Art aren't buying it.  Dani's the lush, but the doctor recommends that Nina and Art attend marriage counseling because they argue to much...according to Dani.  It's not clear to me whether Dani's going to rehab, but I say no, no, no! Cheesy, I know. 

Café del Sur

The paps spot Dani entering a coffee shop and yell out questions about her cancelled wedding.  David sees Regina, but she runs into the bathroom to avoid him.  When she comes out, Dave walks towards her and she conveniently has a slip and fall accident.  The lawyers are licking their chops.  Dave is about to kiss her, but the paps rush in.  The paps want to know if her relationship with David is the reason that she cancelled the wedding.  Both she and Dave deny, deny, deny!  The paps claim that they saw them kiss during her slip and fall accident.  Dave rides off on his motorcycle and follows her car.  They meet on another corner and Dave breaks up with her because of her family.  Her mom attacked his mother and her dad is a big fat doodie head.  Gina gets out of the car and they begin to argue.  The paps are there to capture the fight.   

Gomez-Luna Offices

Franco is studying a picture of Erick on his phone.  Maritnia, the secretary with benefits, walks in and they discuss his problems with Gaby and Eladio.  He inappropriately touches her in the glass office.  He tells her that he is only with Gaby to get closer to Eladio and an inheritance.  Marintia, the secretary with benefits, tells him that he can't control his woman.  Franco tells her that he's pissed about Dave working for his uncle. 

One of the men that Erick has been meeting with visits Eladio in his home office.   He tells him that Erick took the bait...hook, line and sinker.  The man tells Eladio that he has sent the transference.  Eladio pontificates how Art will feel when he finds out that his own son betrayed him.

Gracias, Cynderella.

I wasn't surprised at all at the shady vendors being connected to Eladio. Something like this was bound to happen. If we were betting I'd wager a box of Russell Stover that Erick isn't smart enough to transfer the dinero before they pull it back and further, that there won't be any more. That way he loses the Ratt and his father in one swell foop.

He will probably echo Eladio once he hears that Consuelo is pregnant and accuse her of fooling around with Miguel. However, I think she will fight back by daring him to a DNA test. It'll come back positive that it's Erick's and she will be stuck with him.

Arturo should kick him out on his arse once he finds out about this shady deal. Nobody will employ him after the word about this gets out. I'm sure, however, that Nina will fight that.

As to these two men wearing suits in their home offices, I can think of the following explanations:

-- The possibility that they have meetings scheduled with vendors and clients
-- It helps maintain authority over their employees (that's more about Eladio than Arturo)
-- The Dress For Success Principle*
-- These actors both look great in suits and it's a directorial decision because of that

*You definitely have a different attitude when dressed in business clothes. It's one of the reasons that Casual Friday isn't allowed in some companies.

More later.


 

Cynderella, you continually raise the bar.

I cannot tell you how much your wonderful recap has buoyed my spirits this morning.
"Eladio almost tears up, so he has asked that we talk amongst ourselves while he composes himself" and "Gaby is not in the mood for any francofurter tonight" were hysterical but "For the love of goodness? Will someone please kick this woman's bucket already?" had me laughing out loud.

You raise the dark and dank storyline to one that can be tolerated with laughter and wry humor. Thank you.

While there was much to celebrate with your recap, there was little to enjoy last night. David seemed fairly intelligent yet he chose to condemn Regina without talking with her. Regina cannot get a break - vile sister, aloof mother, loser ex-fiancée and now, ceremoniously dumped by David.

Nina has been shrewish and manipulative but Arturo has been as culpable in his own way for some of their children's issues. Erick is his mother's son but Arturo sees him as who and what he is and did little to stop him. A few admonishing words to his son are insufficient.

Actually, all the children in this are spoiled. Especially David who has been coddled by Julia to the point of smothering. The fact that Regina and Miguel turned out so well is a blessing. And a mystery.

UA, a box of Russell Stover? Not Ferrero Rocher? :) I can't take the bet though because I agree with you. And yes, mama Nina will come to Erick's defense...

Cynderella, thank you so much.

Diana
 

Actually, I can raise the ante because I stockpiled both when they were on sale last week (The large RS boxes were "Buy 1 get 2 free" over the weekend). I wish the Ferrero Rocher noirs came in the box of 12 like they did at introduction. Now you only get those in the 18- or 24-count boxes and they're half the size they were 5 years ago.

One thing to remember about narcissistic people is the poor boundaries that result. Hence, Petra enters without knocking because none of the "kids" in this family know how to enforce healthy ones. That's one liability of being a child of a narcissist.
 

UA, great deal! Trust me, RS works for me just as well as any other. I haven't "met" a bad chocolate right.

And your comment about narcissists was spot on.

Diana
 

My mother was a narcissist so I've got Nina's number.
 

Thanks for your funny recap Cynderella.

What a nice little surprise that the baddies Erick was/is dealing with are pawns for Eladio. He is so stupid. And I hope Connie isn't pregnant; Erick doesn't need to procreate.

Hoping UA is right and Art kicks Erick out of the house. While Nina will protest, if Art has evidence of Erick's betrayal, she'll have to fold. And yes Art and Eladio do look great in suits. If I were their director, I'd have them in suits as well.

Diana, Regina did have a rough day. But she needs to use her brain more, as does David. I know their ignorance/stupidity is "necessary" to keep them apart but its wearing thin on me.
 

Cyn- You had me laughing from beginning to end. :) I concur with everyone else. Eladio and Art wear suits 24-7 because they look so darned good in them. Just like Julia and Nina know they look fabulous in those body-hugging, pencil skirt dresses. No jeans for these gals.

Eladio really did get choked up when it looked like his goody goody (alleged) son was ready to jump on the Montenegro hate train, and come work for daddy. Franco, who?

David was talking a good game about hating ALL Montenegros, and about Regina being the WORST of them, but he seemed awfully close to kissing her when they fell. And Regi can talk all she wants about not wanting to see David, but her face lit up when he whipped off that helmet and came to her car window. But of course things always get ugly when kids on the playground start the “yo mama” comments. Throw in a “yo daddy” too, and it only ups the ante. Surprised they didn’t start harping on each other’s grandmas too.

 

And when all this hits the press all their parents are going to freak. I hope Petra keeps a journal.
 

You are so funny Cynderella and love your retelling

"She said that Montenegro is richer than your dad and that he has a bigger penis"

"francofurter"

"Reverend Augustin tells the truth, someone pass the offering plate!"

I'm pulling for the Gómez Luna. Eladio and Art both play dirty but Eladio isn't trying to steal Art's wife. I'm happy David is helping his father and he is right, both sisters played with and dumped him.

I can't help but like Daniela and understand why she doesn't respect her father.

Golly it was funny at dinner and toast all round but Julia wouldn't raise her glass. How did Eladio miss that?

Sometimes I find it hard to overlook Miguels creepiness.

 

Thank you, Cynderella. What a great way to start the day! Such a joy to read.

Daniela's Facebook post (on Regina's page) said : "You are the worst person that I know. You had to be a Gomez Luna" (and underneath what Daniela wrote, there was a photo of David). A little childish for Gabriela and David to have gotten so boiled up over it. I can understand a twelve year old taking offense over it, but come on, these people are grown adults. It's not like a naked photo of David was posted. They all need to grow up.

That said, I'm disappointed that David has gotten on the Montenegro hate train.

Can't wait to see what happens with the photos of David and Regina on the floor and about to kiss. The press will have a field day with that. The parents will certainly hit the roof when they see the photos.

I don't get what makes Artie think that Daniela has an alcohol problem. If she did, she'd be drunk 24/7, but she's just a party girl. She doesn't need a therapist, she needs to be kicked out of her parents home, so she can fend for herself, and maybe get a job.

I was shocked to find out that, the man who Erick did business with, is in cahoots with Eladio. Can't wait until Erick is exposed. I too hope that he gets kicked out on his booty and gets fired from the family business.
 

Arturo is almost dropping to Eladio's level, but I'll bet that Eladio has played dirty all along in ways we will find out about eventually. He has already lied to David about the accusation of embezzlement; he was guilty! Arturo doesn't need to threaten people to do their jobs nor has he done anything illegal yet.

Nor does he abuse his wife or children. And we can't hold him to a parenting standard that his culture doesn't demand of him.

Someone observed in the last day or two that there doesn't seem to have been a nanny in the Montenegro household. Actually, not in the Gomez Luna house either. This is very unusual in Televisa tales because the former nanny is usually redeployed to another trusted position in the household when the children are this age.
 

Cynderella---Diana said that you are raising the bar. I say that's putting it mildly

LOL Vivi in that you're surprised that they Regina y David didn't start harping on the grandmas.

Tofie---At the dinner toasts, I believe that it was the second toast where Franco didn't drink.

Mauricio---Not an alcohol problem. I agree. What about Parties Anonymous for Daniela?

I agree that Regina has been getting knocked around by just about everyone.

Are See's chocolates out of the running?

must see tv
the gringo


 

Mauricio- I believe after he saw the drunk at the hotel door pic, Art WAS ready to rip into Dani for being a party girl. It was Nina and Dani themselves who made up the lie about Dani having a problem with alcohol to diffuse his anger, and turn into guilt.
 

Dear PHDTV
Thank you for applying all your armchair knowledge to this tn with such complicated bloodlines.

I didn't get to my DVR for PyP until late and fell asleep halfway through. I wasn't worried. I knew that my expectations for a glorious Tuesday recap from our one and only stellar author-forensic expert would be met and then some. Thanks for the hard at work to bring us this masterpiece.

As to why the men wear business suits almost 24/7--my guess is that wardrobe dept. spent all it's budget on Nina. The two suits are keeping the on-site dry cleaners very busy.

So, Consuelo is preggers. How I had wished Erick had been shooting blanks. But for the sake of the story repeating the older leads stories, it was a forgone conclusion. Erick will certainly blame Connie for sleeping around and NOT want a DNA test.

Julia is delusional. Happy happy joy joy? She ought to know by now that Eladio's moods change as quickly as Nina and Dani change outfits. But, where David is concerned, she keeps hoping, desperately. But does she really want him in the family "business?" That's the part I think is delusional.

More later, maybe.

 

I think Julia is torn in two about this. David being in the business pleases Eladio, which she thinks might make him easier to deal with. However, since he still hasn't conceded that David is his son she isn't really any better off. What she isn't seeing is that Eladio will use David against not only Arturo but her as well.

This should all be over the next time David sees Eladio abuse Julia, which will probably happen when he reviews her cell phone bill.
 

Karen, I fervently hoping you are right in that Nina allows Arturo to kick Erick to the curb once his deception is revealed.

Of course, the way he's treated and cheated on Consuelo should be more than enough reason, right?

I hate to say it but I think Nina will pout her lavender lips until Arturo relents...:)

Diana
 

She'll probably just make up a "problem" for Erick too-- alcohol, drugs, depression-- and blame it on Art AND Connie.
 

The Erick thing is on Art and he shouldn't blame Nina. He knows Erick is cheating and with whom and I haven't seen Art discuss it with Nina. Art has the guy working with him every day and entrust his business dealings to him. We first saw Erick occupied with Ratt when he should have been delivering an offer for Art. I hope Nina gets some spine and blame Art for not paying attention and not speaking to her about his cheating while living under their roof.
 

What? Nina doesn't give a flying damn that Erick is cheating on Consuelo. Arturo was interrupted when he tried to tell her about that so he doesn't know that yet. He won't like it when he finds out.

Arturo's main issue with Erick right now is that he hasn't consequenced him professionally for his screw-ups. He's about to be paid back for that in spades, worse than he deserves. Nina is not blameless here.
 

Nina has nothing to do with the business and is all on Art. I agree Nina likely wouldn't care if Erick is cheating on Consuelo unless that would cause some bad press but if he was married to a woman Nina liked she would care. But, even Nina knows Art has the final say and try as she did when Erick and Daniela ran to her, when Art tried to impose fiscal discipline, what he wants sticks.
 

Thank you, Cynderella!

When Eladio told Franco to dig for dirt in the lives of the Montenegro kids, I immediately thought about Consuelo and her secret about being rescued from the house of ill repute. Sure, she's not really one of the kids (as Nina never tires of reminding her), but she is Most Likely to Be Collateral Damage in this latest outbreak of war.

Mauricio, there are lots of ways of defining alcoholism, some more inclusive than others (not all alcoholics drink every day), but I agree with you that Daniela doesn't really meet any reasonable criteria. Even Arturo's expert had to admit that there was no reason for inpatient treatment. And as someone said above (Vivi? Urban?), it was Nina who steered Arturo to see Daniela's photo as evidence of a treatable problem, rather than just out-of-control brattiness.
 

Thank you Vivi and NovelaMaven.
 

Thanks everyone for your very kind comments.

*Yes, I agree that they look awesome in their suits. It's just that if you're working from home, why not go to work in your bunny slippers. I would.

Vivi Julia leaves that house to visit the foundation and Nina leave the house to get her nails done. Both Eladio and Art simply go downstairs, shut the office door and wait to be called for dinner.

What I find fascinating about the Eladio/Franco/David relationship is that their relationship parallels the Montenegro Sr/Art/Eladio relationship. Everything that Eladio or Art has revealed about their past is happening between Eladio and Franco and Eladio doesn't seem to notice. Eladio tried to come between Art and his father and now Franco is trying to come between David and his father. Franco will probably get an inheritance because he is Eladio's spawn, but he just doesn't know it. Once Eladio finds out that Franco is trying to betray him (I'm talking about the Montse incident and probably more to come), he'll probably whack him.
 

Thanks, Cynderella. My favorite lines have been cited, but here’s one more: I will be keeping an even closer eye on Efrain 'cause he is so fine.

Seems like Nina coached Daniela on what to say to the doc. Daughter and mother exchanged a look when Daniela said all the fighting between her parents was soooo upsetting. Arturo didn’t seem to buy it though.

Eladio going to a drawer and pulling out the photo of his mentor to David was strange. Why not display the photo on his bookshelf if the guy helped him make it big?

Erick most def doesn’t want a baby to stick him to Consuelo, but I’m thinking he’ll still be glad to know his fish can swim.
 

I totally don't understand the WTF family and hope that they make me care about them soon. She's sick! What does that have to do with the story line? Maybe one of the Montenegro daughters will fall in love with the husband soon? Maybe Connie? They can't possibly have BOTH brothers sleeping with the same woman and BOTH sisters sleeping with the same man. That's just gross. Miguel has got to find another love interest/hobby. Whatever. Maybe Connie and Clara are related to Caridad too? So far, none of the blondes have parents. The only other blonde is in prison. Sorry, I'm just trying to figure out WTF the WTF family is doing on this show.
 

One last thing before I go back to work. I think that Erick likes Connie in his own sick and twisted way. She's preggers because he boinks her, so we know he's attracted to her. Also, he gets jealous of other men looking at her (including his brother). He doesn't want her on the catwalk.
 

Actually, I don't think Erick cares much about that. He doesn't want responsibility of that kind because he can't handle it. That's one reason he still lives with his parents. He's still a child in most ways.

I am already picturing Nina's face at the prospect of being called "Abuela."


 

Not much time. Cynderella but had to say this was great. 3:30 and my first break of the day so I jumped in to read the recap and you just made me smile.

And YES, I just knew those evil vendor guys were a set up. Only goes to show how STOOPID Erick is. Let him get whatever.

And another YES!! Augustin, thy name is Common Sense. Our Oracle. Who noone listens to. Boy, right now, not loving too many folks in this tale.

My take yes on the two patriarch idiots--control freaks. They are both uptight and have no clue what it is to be anything but the workaholics that they are. Their suit/their work is their identity. That have nothing else.

Daisynjay
 

Sitting here laughing out loud like a crazy person. Because my favorite Crazy Person Cynderella has just belted out another hilarious recap.

Just some of my favorite lines:

"if she [Julia] boes to the bathroom, Erik better be in the next stall"

"both dress up in suits to work in their home office. please discuss. Yeah, Cynderella, I vote for bunny slippers too. Fernando Colunga in bunny slippers...and not much else...that works for me.

"not in the mood for any francofurter tonight" Wow..no boundaries for you, kid.

But the best...your whole Holy Roller bit including "Let the choir sing!"

For some reason it reminds me of your "those jumping jacks just don't do themselves" quip in a previous telenovela...in that I simply never, ever know what you're going to come up with, but for sure it will make me laugh.

Thanks, Cyncerella, it's a gray soggy day here and I have lots of family sorrows to process but you made me laugh like a maniac and that's good.
 

Cynderella, Consuelo looks the role of the old-money young wife. She has the right features, hair, and wardrobe. She is acceptable arm candy for Erick at public events. But once he married her his sexual interest died and she became a mere possession.

Monserrat looks like a whore and that's what gets his motor running. If he married her and she started dressing like Consuelo he would lose interest and go chasing another whore. But I don't think she'll live long enough for that to happen.

Everyone, I'm having some tech issues so tonight's installment will probably be a little late.
 

Cynderella! Girl, you Crack. Me. Up! All my favorite lines have been repeated to, but I LOVED the little "take me to church" interlude! Oh yeah, and the WTF Family! That is HILARIOUS!

Thank you!
 

I have always thought how ridiculous for any businessman to come home from work & have dinner in his coat & tie. Only true in novelas. In the real world they rip off that tie immediately, get comfy & relax. I bet Warren Buffet gets comfy.
 

Erik wants to be with a woman like Nina. He thought Connie would be like Nina, a sexy wife who always pleasures her man but Connie is not like that. Montserrat is.
