Pasion y Poder #114, Wednesday March 30, 2016

Lo Nuevo

Nina, Regina and Jorge visit Erick in the hospital. He says he feels like crap. Erick thinks Regina is faking her concern for his health. Regina and Jorge leave.

David brings Dani home. He promises to talk to Nina about helping her with her drug problem. Regina and Jorge arrive while D&D are hugging. Awkward...

Back at the hospital Erick says he can't stand the pain anymore and wants to go home. Nina tells him he has to be on complete bedrest and stay at the hospital under observation. Art arrives. Erick is not happy that Art is there. Art just wants to make sure he is okay. Erick throws it back at his father that the last time they spoke, he (Art) had told him (Erick) that he was no longer supporting him anymore. Now it's Erick that does not want to know anything about his father.

Regina updates D&D on Erick's condition. Dani and Regina argue about Dani supporting Erick and Regina supporting Miguel and Connie. David breaks up the fight. Each couple says goodnight.

Erick and Art argue over Connie's rape. Art does not believe Erick. Nina wants Art out of the room. Art tells Nina that if she won't tell him then he will get info on Erick's condition through the doctors or hospital.

Regina tries to have a heart to heart talk with Dani about her drug results. Regina says she is trying to get close to Dani because she loves her and is concerned. Dani tells Regina that she doesn't need her because she has everything she needs with David. He knows about the test results and is going to help her.

Art goes to visit Connie and wants to hear from her mouth that Erick raped her. She says yes. Art has finally realized that Miguel and Connie love each other and belong together. He promises to help Connie get her son back so that she can be happy with Miguel and her baby.

Franco shows Eladio the newspaper headline featuring the feuding Montenegro brothers. Eladio is pleased. David comes into Eladio's office wanting to talk.

Nina sees the newspaper story and is upset. She shows the story to Erick. They argue about how this will affect the family company. Erick still has head pain.

David wants to talk about Dani. David asks Eladio for help finding a therapist for her. Dani arrives at Eladio's office. Eladio tells Dani that her behavior concerns him not only because she is the company spokesmodel, but she is also his son's girlfriend.

Art is upset when he sees the story about Erick and Miguel. Art tells Lulis to keep an eye on Dani so that she will stay off the drugs. He wants her to be with Dani 24/7.

Eladio tells Franco and David that GLA is the chosen company to do the Rivera Maya project.

Julia reads the newspaper article about the brothers. Hummy suggests that she call Art to offer support. Julia does not want to and tells her father to stop telling her what to do when it comes to Art. Julia tells Hummy that he better not have a "special interest" in her getting back with Art. Hummy denies it. Hummy gets a phone call from a friends' son, but we don't get to find out the reason for that call. The friends name is Juliano Quesada.

Franco and David tell Eladio that they are going to need alot of money for such a big project. Eladio thinks they can partner with another company, but David and Franco reject that idea. Franco thinks that it's best to go public and put company shares on the market to make the money they need quickly. Eladio doesn't look convinced.

Rueda tells Auggie, Regina and Jorge that Erick will charge Miguel with attempted murder.

Marco gripes to Franco about not having any help in the accounting department since Francisco left. Franco blames Eladio. Franco tells Marco that GLA shares will soon go public and Marco needs to buy the maximum amount of shares that he can buy with the money they embezzled.

Art and Eladio meet at the Businessman's Association. They argue about the Rivera Maya project and about Art's family problems with Miguel, Erick and Dani. Art accuses Eladio over the newspaper article and Eladio takes credit for it. It was payback for telling Julia about Franco. Eladio is sure that Erick killed TheRat and that Art covered for him by paying off the witness. Eladio just doesn't have proof. Art grabs Eladio by the collar, but Eladio tells him to calm down if he wants him to help Dani with her drug problem. Eladio leaves. Art tries to calm down. Auggie walks up and wants to know what's going on.

Hummy visits Franco at work. He is furious at Franco for selling Gaby's parents factory.

Gaby talks to Caridad about her marital problems. Caridad promises to talk to Franco. She asks Gaby not to tell Eladio about the marital problems because it could cause problems for Franco.

Hummy tells Franco that he will keep Franco's secrets if he will keep his. He wants a cut of the sale of his daughters factory.

Art is pissed about loosing the Rivera Maya project to Eladio. Auggie blames it on Julia and says that despite being divorced, she doesn't want anything to do with Art. Art claims Julia needs time, and the kids need time to adjust. Auggie tells him to forget about Julia and to concentrate on his family. Art says he can't.

Hummy wants 25% of the sale of the factory and he knows how much Franco received for it because he knows the person who purchased it. Franco agrees.

Alone, Julia reads a love letter from Eladio and cries.

Art claims that his relationship with Julia is on hold until things get better. By then she will want to be with him. For now Art is focused on Miguel's case. Auggie tells him that Miguel might spend alot of time in jail depending on Erick's long term diagnosis. Art feels like crap. He wants to know what he did wrong to have all these problems with his kids. Auggie feels his pain.

David and Lulis accompany Dani to her therapy session.

Regina walks into Erick's hospital room and overhears Erick telling his doctor friend that he's been doing a good job faking his illness and he needs to continue to help him.

Connie tells Clarita that she is desperate to see her baby. Clarita is pissed about everything, including the rape and Miguel being in jail.

Erick tries to backtrack with what Regina heard. He says that she only cares about Miguel and what happens to him. Erick plays the victim. The doctor says he's concerned because Erick is starting to have memory problems.

Hummy tells Julia that he went to visit Franco to work out their problems. Julia believes all his lies.

Art visits Miguel is jail and tells him that his case has become more complicated because Erick's injuries are serious. Miguel feels like crap for what he did and for hurting his dad.

Marco shows Franco that he has already bought GLA shares in their fake company names.

Gaby talks with David about her marital problems. David promises to talk with Franco and calls him over the phone so they can meet in his apartment. Gaby leaves.

Art goes to visit Erick. The doctor said that Erick has to stay under observation. Art tells him to be patient. Chimp boy tells his father that he feels bad for not being so efficient and that he admires Art. The sad chimp says he knows that he is a disappointment to Art. Chimp boy says he's sorry. Art tells him that he doesn't agree with everything he does, but he does love him.

Connie visits Miguel in jail. She says she will visit him every chance she gets. Miguel tells her that if he was sentenced to life in jail he wouldn't want to tie her down. He would want her to be free and be happy. She says she can't be happy with anyone else.

Franco arrives at David's apartment. First they talk about business then Franco sees a sweater on the couch. His face changes and it seems that he thinks Gaby is eavesdropping from the bedroom. When David asks how things are going with Gaby Franco tells him that he doesn't know what to do anymore to show Gaby how much he loves her. He too is feeling hurt that he won't be able to have children. He asks David for help.

Connie tells Auggie that she is super worried about Miguel. Auggie informs her that Erick's lawyer has postponed the appeal indefinitely for custody of EJ because of Erick's condition.

David talks with Dani over the phone. His mother shows up at his apartment. She is worried about Dani's drug use and how it's a risk for David. She would prefer that David break up with her.

Connie visits Art at GM and tells him that she wants to give her and EJ's shares of the company to Erick so that he can forgive Miguel and everything can go back to normal. Art doesn't think it's a good idea. Connie says she's desperate and cries on Art's shoulder. Nina walks in and tells Connie that it won't do her any good to cry on Art's shoulder, although come to think of it he has made some bad decisions lately...

Comments:
Thank you, AuntyAnn! Your take on the action was a lot more entertaining than the action itself! :)

I have the scoop of the year: Franco is not Eladio's son, he is Humberto's son! These two greedy rat bastards are so alike, the resemblance is uncanny! All joking aside, I believe that the Gómez Luna divorce and Eladio's insistence in giving Julia a substancial chunk of GLA actions in the settlement may wind up saving part of the family fortune from Franco's grand embezzlement scheme. I doubt he would be able to pull it off but, then again, Eladio has put his guard way down of late, so maybe Julia will be his savior from financial ruin.

The Montenegro family drama is getting a bit tedious. Chimp Boy is in the hospital again? Half the cast of PyP has been hospitalized: David, Julia, Montserrat, Franco, Erick, Consuelo, Erick again... ¡Ya aburren con lo mismo!

Thanks again, AuntyAnn! Have a great day, everyone! :)
 

Gracias, AuntyAnn.

Humberto sank several levels in this episode. Who wants to bet that if he gets his hands on that money he will gamble it all away? He leeches off his one and only grandchild by not ratting Franco out. The person who called him is the source of the info because the factory is in Aguas Calientes. Humberto knows the amount of the purchase.

Of course, considering that this is Ultimas Semanas and we've had a hint of this, Franco could be offing him before payment -- in cash -- is due.

Nina has not turned over any new leaf. She is just as nasty and eager to defend Ape Child as ever. She still hates Consuelo. While Ape Child hasn't confided his latest scheme to her I'm sure she'd go along with this since she doesn't want Miguel to inherit anything.

In view of this my hope for her Karmageddon is that Erick lives to go to prison for his crimes and she visits him there.... and gets harassed by the entire cell block.

Nandicta, it's a TN law to have multiple hospitalizations that have nothing to do with birth. Most of these are always crises. Su salud es muy delicada belongs on the cliche list.

Eladio definitely looked as though he was off his game in the scene where Franco talked about selling shares to raise capital. However, I don't think Franco will get away with it. This truce with David isn't going to last and probably it will be David who saves the family fortune.

Have to make some coffee. More later.
 

thanks so much, Aunty Ann, for that tasty recap to savor with my coffee and oatmeal.

Humbug and Franky are equally despicable attempting to steal Gaby's shoe factory. Gaby, this is what happens when you are a clueless dishrag who sits around frowning. Get proactive, girl, buy a vowel ,and open your eyes.

Err playing the victim with mommy and daddy is hilarious. Hmm..memory loss. Is there any chance he could forget that he is an a$$hat and start acting like a human with some level of emotional IQ ?

With Art and Aug putting out family fires all over town, who is taking care of business.

Do Art and Eladio have any awareness that the hot messes that their lives have become all started with their relentless competition for a woman?. Geez. I have seen teenage boys get into fist fights over a girl, but these are grown men who run business empires.

Well , off to teach noun clauses. L8R
 

Thank You Aunty. I want some fun. Lets bail Miggy out of jail, put him in a lab coat and give him a stethoscope. Have him visit Erik alone in his room and see how much memory loss we see on Chimpolito's face.
 

OH, and Humbastard needs a Hoveride down the Humstairs for Humsure.
 

Thank you AuntyAnn. A perfect way to start off the morning is reading a recap from you.

Well, now the tables have turned, and it is Hummy who has Franco in his hands now. This was a great turn of events for sure. For sure, Hummy will gamble away the 25% that he will receive from Franco.

Arturo wants to know what he did wrong with his kids? Well, maybe he should have been there for them instead of being an absent father. I know he had to work but he could have found time for his family which is what should have been most important than work.

I'm glad that Regina overheard Erick asking the Dr. to continue helping him. I hope she tells Agistín and Arturo and they all get to the bottom of things before Consuelo makes a stupid move and gives Erick her shares of GM.
 

Arturo doesn't want her to give him the shares. Augustin will also object. I think that between those two they can stop it. Like they should be able to stop what Erick is doing, but that's if Regina tells them what she heard.

I made a pre-caffeine error before; Humberto has two grandchildren, one of each. But would he hijack money meant for David?

Regarding Erick's emotional intelligence, I'd say he has a high IQ for it but uses it for nefarious purposes. He has been playing everyone so far, including Nina, who is starting to show evidence of aging. Ironic that her wardrobe improves just as she's starting to look older. The blue dress was fabulous.
 

This is excellent, AuntyAnn! I love to listen to you telling the story – thank you!

Ay ay ay. The creeps just keep piling up their nasty little victories. I suspect that Franco won't be unmasked until the very end, but I do so wish the writers would throw us a bone before then. Expose the chimp and get Miguel out of jail, say. Is that so much to ask?

What can I say? You have my attention, P y P!
 

Novela I am with you. Start torturing/killing people. Do not make me wait till the last episode. That will be like trying to eat a 4 layer chocolate cake in one sitting. Give it to me a slice at a time, so I can really enjoy it.
 

AuntyAnn,

Thanks for this snappy right to the point recap... an easy and enjoyable read with all the important details included.

If we're ever going to have a Humberto Table, time is running out.

"Hummy wants 25% of the sale of the factory..."

Somehow I simply can't see Franco complying with this. In fact, from what I could gather from his conversation with Marcos, Franco has already dedicated that money to another purpose. The stairs beckon. He'll be sorely missed.

Carlos
 

I predict that someone like Agustin will find out that Erick staged the kidnapping and collected the ransom money and jewels. This will be revealed to the police unless Erick withdraws the assault and battery (attempted murder?) charges against Miguel.
 

Ah great recap AA!

The moment Hummy asked for 25% of the proceeds I thought "he just signed his death warrant". Too big a sum for Franco to let go of.

Yes! for Regina walking in on Chimp boy! She looked none too convinced with his retractions or the doctor. Hope she blows him up big time!!

When Eladio was gloating over Art about his kids I thought "wipe that smile off your face because you're next!" I can see him giving Franco his name right before Franco takes control of the company or Eladio finds out the truth. If only David had taken shares. I think Nandicta is right and Julia's shares may save it for Eladio.

The moment I think Julia is picking up Hummy's number, he strolls in, makes an empty gesture, and she is hooked right back. She and Gaby are definitely related!
 

Gobluefan, I hope that doesn't happen because that won't help Connie get the baby back. What Erick did was so much worse than the few blows Miguel inflicted.
 

Thanks so much for that AuntyAnn...especially since my DVR cut off maybe the last 1-2 minutes.

I had a feeling before Hummy visited Franco that that's what that call was about! He is scum to a super duper level. This jerk just sold your granddaughters company from under her nose and instead of calling the press (Eladio, Julia, David) and shutting down his misdeeds, you take advantage. You should threaten Artie with the knowledge that you helped him break up Julia's marriage and get the money that way or something. Every time he says that this is the end or he feels himself dying, I'm like will you just die already...Is that wrong? LOL!

I'm so disappointed in Gabby just handing over control of her company to Franco and they are still newlyweds. He's ambitious and devious. You don't really trust him, so why would you do it and not (at the very least) check things out OR not give him power of attorney? I hate to say you deserve it, but...

I can't see Regina letting what she heard slide without saying something which will lead to a second opinion w/monitoring the scans.


 

I also can't see Augustin making that deal with this kind of a devil. If Erick actually killed the Rat (and I'm still not convinced) he will kill again.

What I think is that the witness was first bribed by Eladio and he played Arturo for another million pesos. That means that Eladio was responsible for the murder (meaning he did it or had Callao do it, hence the cryptic conversation in the car) and Erick was the fall guy. Eladio had far more motive to kill the Rat than he did. Since the Rat was a substance abuser, the story about the accident would have played if she had been screaming on the way down.

We don't know how much of the company is in Julia's name. Eladio could have given her the majority share for tax purposes or as a lure to get her back. That in itself could be the biggest roadblock to Franco getting the controlling interest.

We now have about 23 episodes remaining (unless there are more pre-emptions) and still there are secrets to uncover and crimes to be exposed.

 

UA,

"What I think is that the witness was first bribed by Eladio and he played Arturo for another million pesos."

I like that scenario. If so, however, I can't see Eladio (nor by extension, Callao) just letting the matter go.

Carlos
 

I think Erick killed Ratt. He is super stupid, has a hot temper and is impulsive. In his mind it was an accident because it wasn't premeditated. We know he returned. I think he got mad at her for pushing off his advances and he got mad and pushed her, where she lost her footing and went over. In his anger he took back the necklace. Who would think to do that after just watching someone fall to their death? To me, that means at that point he was in control of his faculties.
 

Humberto will never gamble away that money because Humberto will be either having his oxygen cut off or taking a tumble down the stairs.

Half of the arguments between Arturo & Eladio are because Arturo runs over to Eladio and nana nana boo boo's him. Last night, Eladio & Callao were just walking down the hall minding their business when Arturo ran up on Eladio to get in his face. I'm glad Eladio jumped in Arturo's @$$ about accusing David of doing drugs with Daniela. David went out with Regina for how long? At least 6-9 months and Regina didn't & doesn't have a drug problem but all of a sudden DAVID is the reason Daniela has a drug problem? Please have a seat.

I don't see what Nina is doing wrong for her situation. She's not going to defend Consuelo (whom she doesn't like) over her own child. There's no proof Erick raped Consuelo so until there is undeniable proof she's not going to toss over her own child.


 

Carlos, I think we will find out soon. This witness would have disappeared if he's smart but if he is as greedy as some of these other characters he will try to bleed Eladio/Callao again. Or someone will rat him out.

If Erick did the crime and it played as Carvivlie described it he was the dumbest killer ever for retrieving the necklace. Both Arturo and Nina think it was an accident but someone needs to open Arturo's eyes to the possibility that Ape Child lied.

He is starting to look more self-centered than Humberto, who is at least clever enough to pretend he cares about Julia. When Regina questioned Ape Child he automatically accused her of faking concern because she has taken Miguel's side. Since narcissists always see their own ugly behavior in others, this is the distorted reflection of how he tried throwing Regina under the bus back when he was selling out GM.

Anon207, you are right about Nina there. She defended Ape Child when he tried to throw Regina under the bus over the information he sold out to Eladio. If she won't defend her own daughter he threat to disown Erick over raping Consuelo is meaningless.
 

Urban: Connie once again makes another STUPID decision by selling her shares to Erick OJ Simpson!

I KNEW Erick was faking his illness & glad that Regina overheard him too. But what will she do about this development ? Tell her father about it ?

Anon207: Purple Lips will NEVER be exposed for her crimes until probably the Gran Final!

Carlos: The witness better stay away!



 

I though the witness was legitimate. He looked it anyway when Art tried to buy him off. I think Eladio knows that the witness id'd Erick and then suddenly went back on his word. Though this is a TN and crazy surprised do pop up. I will be horribly dismayed if Eladio is the killer.
 

It drives me crazy that these people know life-changing 'secrets' and decide to do N O T H IN G. The average person can't keep a secret in a safe dceposit box. How can these self absorbed dimwits keep these secrets?

I agree about Gaby. She has a mutt mug, great body, and her only interest so far has been sucking face with Francenfurter and being unhappy. If she had a brain se'd take it out and sss....never mind.
 

Carvivlie,I won't be. He is the one with the most motive. We saw Eladio beat her up and heard his insults to her left, right, and sideways. She stupidly provoked a lot of his behavior and she was even stupid enough to invite him to the party knowing Erick was going to be there. This is not saying she deserved to be murdered; this is just Darwinism.

Now...

Consuelo is unlikely to give her shares to Ape Child. Arturo and Augustin won't let her. Based on Erick's escalating behavior this would be the stupidest mistake in virtually any novela I've ever seen:

1. Ape Child refused to let her see the baby unless she stopped seeing Nerd Boy. She agreed, then...

2. Ape Child raped Consuelo and continued to demand "obedience."

This sounds to me like he has enough IQ points to gaslight her into committing suicide unless Arturo and Augustin step in to protect her.
 

Steve: Dani knows a WW3 secret on Franco and not a flippin word. Regi will probably think: " Um tell my Dad what I heard, or go eat some cotton candy with my Turtle?" "Nah, cotton candy sounds good, let them work it out."
 

Regina still hasn't told Nina & Arturo about Dani's hotel incident. She'll keep quiet about Erick until she can't anymore.
 

Top of morning everyone and thank you Aunty for detailed, accurate and your style. I really enjoyed it. I appreciate you answered the question that was puzzling to me. When Franco went to Dav's house Franco noticed "something on couch" and did a double take. I couldnt tell what that object was, so therefore I didnt understand why Franco did double take when he saw something on the couch. You explained very nicely what it was and that Frsnco thought Gaby was there.
I totally believe and agree with others opinion that Franco will "deshacer" (do away with) Humberto.
I am not hoping for Hum's death, but I will not feel bad if and when that happens. Kirbo is right, Chimpie should be put to test if Mig were to walk in.
Art is hurting because Eric is such a neer- do well, very dumb son, not just that, but he knows he's a jerk a$$hole.
Gaby totally bores Franco to no end. Some of us at the patio too, I'm sure. Gaby's parents took measures that Gaby would receive the factory worth alot of miney. IMHO, I feel she didnt value what her parents lovingly left her. She must think so little of her patrimonio that she just signed everything to Franco. Her not being more appreciarive and her disinterest in her parents gift illustrates she thinks nothing of it. It was left to her with all their love. The fruit of their hard earned labor. Her folks must rolling over that she just practically handed it over to Franco and did not value what she inherited. So her getting scammed by her husband is the consequence of her disinterest.

Hummy is wicked, greedy and does not care for anyone except hisself. Asking for a cut of his granddaughters stolen inheritance. Yea, he called Franco a bad seed, when he is one too.

Leticia


 

While there's no doubt that Erick is embellishing his symptoms, nonetheless he is genuinely injured. From Tuesday's episode as Erick was trying to convince his Dr. to help him put Miguel away:

"Erick: For sure if you help me with this I’ll return the favor like you have no idea.

Dr.: I’m not going to have to lie, Erick.

Erick: What happened? You’re rejecting me?

Dr.: No, it’s not that, It’s that you really are injured (mal). You suffered a cerebral concussion.


Now of course the question is how much of what the Dr. sees is a result of the wreck and how much new damage is a result of the beating he received at Miguel's hands?

UA,

regarding Erick..."...I'd say he has a high IQ..."

Do you really see any evidence of this in anything that he has done?

Carlos
 

Carlos: Erick reminds me of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet: a sadistic, evil man, who gets what he wants with violent means!
 

Anon207: On Regina not telling her parents about the hotel incident with Daniela: I was thinking, "What the Hell are you waiting for Regina ?"

Looks like Miguel will be in prison for a long time!


 

thank you AuntyAnn.

I wonder why Humberto didn't ask for half. Couple times Humberto went too far with Eladio and Franco and I love the look on his face when he's attacked. Gimme more

Well Erick fooled me too. Goldbricking

Finally heard Francisco's name mentioned last night. Will he return?
 

Franco and Err both infuriate me because they are both arrogant, entitled little boys who think that they can get away with anything...and so far, have. At least Franco has not raped or killed anyone as far as we know.We know that Err raped Connie and may have pushed Ratty off the balcony. Franco seems more clever than Chimpboy. They both tried to take out each other without success. They are fairly evenly evil , and I am so looking forward to someone somehow bringing them down.
 

Tofie...oh..maybe the missing Francisco lost the girl but will fly back to save the day...AUDIT !!!! That's how embezzlers finally get taught.
 

I never understood why Daniela as a Gomez Luna house model would be posing in a bikini, away from any buildings. I thought Eladio's company was involved in building and developing houses, apartments, and hotels. So, why the bikini shots?
 

In a test of cunning my money is on the old guy. I think Elad already knows how evil he has taught Franc to be and is a step ahead.
 

I hope......
 

Maybe some of the Gomez Luna properties have pools or are near a beach and Dani is posing by pools / beaches to highlight the benefits of these properties?

The Gomez Luna properties aren't just stores and commercial buildings but residences, too. That's what Julia was selling at the real estate office.
 

Kirby: Eladio will always be one step ahead of Franco & Co.,

Old Goat Humberto's days will be numbered as the clock is ticking very fast!



 

Tofie: Too bad Francisco will be disappointed when he finds out that Clara has moved on with Justino!


 

Tick...Tock...Tick...Tock..Tick...Tock...Tick...Tock.. What kind of noise does a
GRANDFATHER clock make?

Bye Hummy ya dummy.
 

Great AuntyAnn---Thank you so much. Complete and to the point, what more is there?
Everything is complete and understandable now.

Carlos---If I had to bet you still haven't been to the optometrist. No doubt that you are still seeing Nina through a foggy haze. Go pick up those new glasses. Urban has had her morning coffee and I had my reading glasses on last night and was seeing clearly. Urban at 6:40 AM has it right. Nina hasn't changed (I was starting to believe that she had) but it now evident that she still is the same bruja Nina that she has been from the beginning.
What I don't understand is how you can see so clearly way back to Corazon Indomable
(Youtube helped a little)and get that one right--Ok, Eusebio wasn't running away when Miguel shot and killed him. Miguel got away with murder then and our Miguel today, sits in jail for throwing three or four punches. Oh well life and novelas move on, it's all up to the writers now. But please Carlos, throw away your old worn out glasses and go pick up a new pair so that you can see bruja Nina a little more clearly.

How long will Regina keep quiet about what she heard between Erick and the doctor?

Kirbo---8:27AM That was so funny, I would love to see that take place.

Urban---I liked the blue dress also.

Some good theories on Montse's death. No one knows but it sure will be interesting when the writers tell us what actually happened.

must see tv
the gringo

 

Carlos, emotional intelligence is the ability to read other people's feelings. It's the perfect skill for a grifter, con artist, sociopath. He knows how to scam and how to hurt.

Both Franco and Erick have this skill. Franco hides his hatred and contempt more effectively than Erick does and in combination with his good looks he would be a much more effective grifter if his emotions didn't get in the way. He is more intelligent than Erick, but he will trip himself up soon with so few episodes left.

Gobluefan, I asked this question before and I think that both Eladio's and Arturo's companies are conglomerates which build and own luxury apartment buildings and resort hotels, both of which would have pools and some of which would have beachfront property.
 

Steve: Where's all this death, dismemberment and destruction you've been promising? I have my peanuts and popcorn and Junior Mints, waiting for the show to start.
 

Eladio should have made Julia the model. She has a better figure than Dani.
 

Thanks, AuntyAnn. Great job.

I sure hope Hummy gets the last laugh against Franco.
 

Neicie: Maybe as Franco scoots Humdog down the stairs, his tie wraps around the levers and pulls him with Hummy.

Grandfather Humdog is thrown clear with a broken neck, but the Lithium batteries burst into flames and disfigure Franco beyond recognition.
 

I can't feel sorry for Francisco. He hasn't been seen or heard from in months. He could've called Clara, Facebooked her, texted her, emailed her etc.

If he comes back and expected her to just still be mopping floors at Gomez Luna y Associates and mooning after him after ZERO contact from him for MONTHS...listen...


Plus she wasn't all that into him to begin with; that's why she didn't leave with him.
 

The mansion burns to the ground, and the FIN shot shows Julia and Gaby tucking some GLA stocks into a Chippendale waistband.
 

Bloodthirsty K---In your past life did you have a good seat at the Roman Colosseum?

the gringo
 

Thanks Aunty Ann. Got a kick out of your

AWKWARD!

and "the sad chimp".

Alas, our little chimp is pretty gleeful right now, but he played "sad" very well in front of his dad.

Humberto was delightful to watch but I fear his days are numbered now that he's threatened Francofurter.

Must see TV indeed.
 

Kirbo..ha...I would like to see that...but I think those Chippendales like cash.
 

Gaby would just give the stock away to her next husband and Julia would find some reason to be unhappy and not spend it.
 

Emotional intelligence is also important for someone to succeed in life . It has to do with being self aware and aware of how others feel. People need emotional intelligence in order to have empathy. Err manipulates people. He does not empathize with them. He does seem to know how to play the victim in manipulating his family members. I don't know if I would call that ability emotional intelligence.
 

Carvivle..Yes. Both Julia and Gaby are frustrating, wishywashy characters who don't take control of their own lives .
 

Good Afternoon Patio Peeps,
Sorry I haven't joined the conversation today. I only have my phone to communicate in this busy day. I am going to start reading all the juicy comments.

Thanks for stopping by. Please correct anything I got wrong, or something I missed.

Hasta Pronto!!!
 

El Gringo. You crack me up. I'm just tired of all the whinning, complaining, lying, backstabbing and bitch-slapping.
somebody needs to get H U R T.
 

I love all of these predictions. Until last night, I had forgotten about Francisco. If he were to return, I like him with Connie. She and Miguel make me vomit in my mouth and I don't like how that taste. Stomach juices and all - yep, nasty!

Hummy, Franco, Erick - Please just go to jail and die, thanks and goodnight.

Gaby - penniless until her stalker Auggie rescues her from the puppy pound.

Julia - with or w/o Eladio, I'm starting not to care so she better hurry up and get it together.

Dani/David - wouldn't mind seeing them go off to happy land, but either way he is not with Regina.

Regina - not with Jorge (he's in the puppy pound too waiting for some girl to rescue him) maybe living in New York not bothering decent men and making them unhappy.

Eladio - maybe he's back with Julia, maybe he's moved on and gets Nina pregnant.

Art - in the psych ward of the hospital being fed goldfish crackers Japanese restaurant hibachi grill style. 'catch!'

Miguel - still in prison because Erick is dead (yeah, he may not quite deserve it - but he creeps me out)

Mateo and EJ - picked up where their grandfathers left off!
 

being self aware, how others feel. Noun clauses?
 

UA,

I already had some idea of what emotional IQ means, thank you very much.

...ability to read other people's feelings..."

Well that must explain how he got along so well with his cellmates when he was jailed and why Franco decided to have him killed.

gringo,

I don't think that I've even mentioned Nina in the last couple of days.

"...our Miguel today, sits in jail for throwing three or four punches."

And may very well charged with murder if Erick dies.

Carlos
 

I'm not convinced those punches have hurt Erick in any way. He was completely fine afterwards, except for the bruises. The doc stated that what he saw on the xrays was from the coma. Erick has shown no symptoms of anything since the coma or the punches. He is fine.
 

I don't think the Chimp will die, at least not until the very end if at all. And the ability to read the emotions of others doesn't mean he cares about them.

In the case of what went down in the police lockup he was definitely stupid because his sense of entitlement trumps everything else about him.
 

Surely there were several CTs, MRIs, and likely a PET scan or two during the time that Erick was in coma. I imagine that Dr. Osvaldo has compared these new studies with those done earlier and sees something disturbing or he wouldn't have recommended that Erick be hospitalized. While he may have encouraged Erick to exaggerate his symptoms to achieve his goals, I didn't see or hear anything to suggest that he is profiting from all this even though Erick has offered to reward him. He did mention the condo that Erick loaned him earlier but this was apparently prior to his beating and seems to have been done out of friendship.

Carlos
 

Carlos---Right, you haven't mentioned Nina foe a while but I know that you probably were thinking good thoughts about her. That's ok, we can still have a nice dinner at the Frida Restaurant along with some margaritas of course.

the gringo
 

If that doctor is crooked, he's going down with Erick.

the gringo
 

There should have been, but I don't recall them nor do I recall Erick being told to be careful or come for a follow-up test.

And, dash it all, since these series are always more than a little vague on the passage of time we can't be completely sure how long it's been since he was released.
 

gringo,

I think good thoughts about everyone. I'm always looking to see the best in people. Yes of course we can still have a nice dinner at the Frida Restaurant and of course a cold Margarita or two.

Carlos
 

Yup sure he had a Cat Scan, Dog Scan and at least a Monkey Scan, and a Monkey Resonance Imaging.

If, in fact, Erik is not really injured, it's time to let old Miggy out to administer another beating. DIE ERIK DIE
 

Kirbo: Old Goat Humberto was STUPID in threatening Franco, which means he's all but toast!

Plus, Erick will have someone whack Connie!

 

Does anyone know what telenovela will replace Pasion y Poder?
 

SB: Yeah, OGH is no match for Franco. I agree. Want some marmalade with that toast?
 

I'm sending my secret protection gnomes to protect Connie. (Obviously doesn't know anything about protection herself.)
 

♡Nina says.....

AuntyAnn, good recap. All the pretty people in a row falling down one by one.

Did art really ask that out loud?,"what did I do to have these problems with my kids? Really? Thats his tsunami for all
Out distroying some one elses family. Some people can't seem to wrap their brains around the fact that what goes around really does come back around and whacks the hell out of you. He was enjoying destroying julia's relatiionship with her son, his daughter,his wife, julias marriage, yes it was a fake marriage in a sence but julia and eladio was happy, however shortlived. He just enjoyed running over people to get what was no longer his to have. But what the hell, consequences be damned he wanted it anyway. And still don't have her.

The fact that he could ask that question tells me what an arrogant SOB he is. I like eladio more than I like arturo. But eladio's is coming too, in the form of franco. Who also is next. O them anvils are a comin. I wonder who'll get the bigger one.

O woe is miguel and connie. Sad love story. Dani and her on again off again drug problem. What can I say?.....I got nothin. Good night all.

Thanks Auntyann.


 

I put my name up there first cuz it wouldn't let me put my ♡Nina at the end. It just came up anonmyous. See its dpung it again↓



 

Thanks for your recap Auntie Ann. It was great now if only I can see Erick, Franco, and Hummy get their just desserts, I'll be happy.
