Sueño de amor, Ep. 22 (4.7.2016) Esperanza wants to believe something so badly, she ignores the reality around her.
Luca (immaturus sucrotoxicus) postponed his trip a number of times until he lost his place in Járvar and even when he's supposed to go to Boston, is still here. He offered Adrián an emergency hot line in case he felt the temptation of grabbing the bottle and left the room. After him, Viviana told Adrián how lonely she feels and accidentally drops the bomb: He is a unwanted son. But since every cloud has a silver lining, she looks it on the bright side: Ernesto (Immoralix Vulgaris) never left her. Well, either that or he stayed for her gorgeous bank account.
While packing in his room, Luca has a surprise visit from Anastasia (fauxblondix skankis) and the cameraman make sure that we, and her, of course, see his ''wedding'' ring. Is actually a promise of eternal love ring, a never ending love like the silvery circle itself. She tries to rekindle the fire they used to light in this very room, but Luca is taken and not interested.
-Mom, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Getting addicted to cosmetic surgeries is worse than crack and she cries while saying that she needs to feel young again to stop taking selfies with a filter. She honestly wants to be loved again like when she was young. I am sure Ernst didn't see her beauty because he was busy seeing the resemblance of her green eyes and the dollar bills.
Move over dog, cosmetic surgeons are man's best friends now
Luca and Ana agree that she needs therapy because she had already more than 6 surgeries (and countless other non invasive procedures like botox, beauty masks and energy drinks). Ana finally leaves and Luca cries watching his mom fall into the bottomless pit of no self esteem. Little did they know that in his room, Adrián (innebriatus perpetuus) put a nipple on the vodka bottle and drank until blacking out. By the time Luca finds him, Adrián is asleep so he whispers an almost inaudible ''I love you bro''.
Ernie and Kracy (gringus insatisfechus) plot against Ricardo, right when Arleth (Congelatus descongelatus) brought the coffee he demanded. Ernst also wants to plan the best farewell party for his unconditional ally while playing the freeze unfreeze stupid game with a increasingly annoyed secretary. Yes Arleth, we, like you, are getting tired of it. But cuidadito, Kracy has a very long fang. So long it drags into the ground (tiene un colmillo que le arrastra). In other words, she is a crazy smart-ass beetsh capable of anything and lucky enough to attract men who love the danger of falling into her traps!
This is no deja vú, Ricardo is actually retelling Esperanza the desert story adding the tidbit for today: ''I almost died''. I am sure tomorrow he will add ''but I didn't''. Pedro (diabetus caramellitis) interrupt them ONE MORE TIME to have another family love talk, where the blond boy tell them he confessed his love to Kristel (Confusix poliamorus) and she sent him through a pipe (lo mandó por un tubo). Pedro wishes he could go and fight Erasmo, but revenge is sweet and he have to check his wrist monitor first. Ricardo has no clue, and is speechless, since he can not understand something he has not felt for the last 20 years. Real love.
Let's compare notes with Esperanza. First he told her the ''coyote'' story, then that he almost died, now that he spent 6 years in jail. Oh, and that he called her, but Pedro Carmona told him she was not available . So far so good. He has been married for at least 13 years, has two kids (that he knows of) and Kracy already knew his line of work before marrying him and even made a solidarity pact. One year ago, shadow tried to kill him but killed his best friend instead and scared litle Roddy for life! Sobre aviso no hay engaño.
Don't forget your toothbrush
Kracy is packing. She is happy she won the temporary custody and won't have to see Esperanza anymore, this is good for someone that looks like doesn't pray to virgin of the peas (Helpus fromabovus). Ricardo fights with her and finds out she is jealous. Kracy tells Ricardo she has the best lawyer, Parker. He will also get a lawyer and guess what? Everything your lawyer can do mine will do better, my lawyer will do everyhing better than yours!
What Ricardo ignores is that Ernesto and Kracy plot to get restriction orders, blackmail and everything villains do in order to not let Reecherd see his kids. I guess there was no farewell party, since Ernie and Kracy say buh-bye via a telephone call. Enjoy elei, sweetie!
After Kracy leaves, Ricardo have ''the talk'' with the kids. Even when they are actually, the Alegrias, all is sadness again since mom got the temporary custody and now wants a restriction order. Blah, blah, blah...
Daddy, smart and capable as he is, will fight it and do everything in his power to get them back. Yeah right, like the same he is doing to catch sombra!
Since Ricardo left to go see esperanza AGAIN!! in one of their briefs moments of solace, Rodrigo (Insipidous mamasboyix) and Selena say good-bye to Homero, Virgilio and Sófocles via chat and are knighted by the power of the dragon, even when Selena is a girl. As they do every wednesday, they have their costumes on.
You spin me round baby
While his mother takes a nap, Pedro does some spinning and flashbacking to make time until the commercial break.
La vida es un carnaval
In the middle ground between the two schools, Silvana (Extratoxicus bitterwitchix) and Salma (precocious nobrainix) are mad because Mario is forgetting his duties as a provider, and to make matter worse, the chilortas across the street seem to be a sucess. There's no pepper that suits them (hasta lo que no comen les hace daño) and plan to report the trio to the city.
Over there we can see Kiko (disablis notforlongix) and his sister Estrella (Hungris Buthasmartphonix) wondering why Adrián didn't show up at the Naconcelos singing his signature flash dances, making this look more like a carnival or a circus. Salma thinks soon they will be selling tamales and sha-la-lá. Hey! Don't give them any ideas, but in the meantime I want two orders of Shalalá with a Coke zero please because I am on a diet!
The reason why Mario (Toothlex mandilonis idioticus), is not answering his phone is because he is on a date, with Feliciana, Felícitas, Felicia (Felix incospicuus) juárever! The teacher from Palacios Institute he almost ran over the other day and is too busy being stooge #4 to handle both this woman and his phone. Besides, looks like he missed his appointment to fresh dental care and still has a ''window'' in his mouth.
He doesn't know it but at home, Silvana and Salma got an eviction notice and started panicking. Wait until you get home!
Time for a parenthesis (please someone explain this to me: Esperanza didn't go to work because she came out from that express kidnapping very stressed, but why is everybody else not working? Ricardo, Kracy, the kids, Felicia, shalalá... I heard Trina telling Kracy but what is the excuse they all gave at school? Even Silvana is at home with Salma while Félix and Danny de Vito with a wig, I mean, Margarita are at school or at least they look like they are, since they have their badges on)
With friends like this
The three stooges (trius moronicus) dont want Nacho (Estupidux estereotipus) to leave them for Begonia (zerous tolerancis). This is three musketeers getting too far into each other's business.
Adán (Galanix ludicrus) and Puerqurio (koreanis assistontus) tell him that if he gives up now for her, she will change him and everything will be lost. He will lose his voice. What do you prefer, your wife, or us? He should have said ''wife'' but since he is a moron, choose them to keep living la vida loca!
El burro hablando de orejas
Ricardo is upset because he is inept and wishes his team could do whatever he can't but he is wrong. He takes it on against Triana, and asks for no more excuses. Seems like Sombra (Cleverix Amantis-Deloajenus) has escaped again Chapo style, through a hole in the ground that led to a tunnel. According to the team in the FBI HQ there are more stolen art and Tristana gets a huuuge reprimend and gets fired. Finally! Now go apply where they appreciate your efforts girl! Or better yet, open your own academy and teach the opposite Richard does so the students can successfully reach their goals.
Just what we needed now, a ghostly subplot
Felix (Cluelex Hipsteris) in his hoverboard licking his mustache and thinking Esperancita will be all for himself once Ricardo gets fired for not showing to work. He thinks he hears something that seems to be laughter or crying of a toddler suffering ''la gata flora' syndrome. Looks like the girl is being raped, but at the same time seems to be enjoying it but then she cries. Maybe she is hurt but she like it? Silently, Margarita (Geriatrix predatorus) approaches him and ask to leave together regardless of the crying sounds that haunt the premises.
I am my own grandpa
On the sidewalk outside her house, Patricia (clingis ridiculli) finds out Luca lost his place in Járvar and now he will have to go to another University in Boston. Good, because is closer!! To Jerry Springer!! Where they can go to the ''I want my son to be also my nephew to save on christmas gifts'' show.
PatoLuca (Suffocatix quasi-inbredis) talk about your father, my father, our father and the holy spirit, and to make the issue even more syrupy, she tells him ''if you go you will take the color off my life and everything will be 25 shades of gray''. From the distance, Ana cries seeing the couple so happy, because nobody knows what they have until they lose it. Seeing her so sad makes me wonder If she spent the whole time in Italy crying like that, ay ajá! This is like when nobody wants to hang up first and spend another 30 minutes saying you first, no you first, no, you... please someone shoot me!
Patoluca, who seem to stretch this good-bye to the limits, swear for the upteenth time they will miss each other and she asks him to please send a message before and after he gets there. Don't you rather use the periscope app instead?? Just saying...
Echando un coyotito
Inside, Esperanza, who loves adrenaline and probably wants to keep living dangerusly so Richard can save her over and over, takes a nap and has yet another sueño de amor with Ricardo. She wakes up thinking how much he has suffered and probably deserves to be forgiven, but, who told him to leave in the first place? She did? NO, right?
When she wakes up, still in a daze, gets a mysterious envelope that could as well be anthrax but she opens it anyway. Pedro comes to prepare his fruit cocktail and she shows him the stationary bicycles receipts fully paid. Who paid them? Who, who? Not me, said the owl. Ernesto thats who. And it was almost 100,000 pesous! Let me call him again to nag. While I do that you can keep chopping that cantaloupe in your hands like we don't have a cutting board, Pedro. Its very safe. I am sure that in your condition, if you cut yourself, your wound will heal very nicely... and fast!
When the reluctant Luca finally goes away, Pato seem to head inside, but is stopped by Ana, who came closer from behind the tree, to fight, but Pato is not in the mood right now because she feels like she just lost a limb and tells her to go home and do something useful, like retouching her roots with peroxide or bleach or ammonia, juárever. Wow, this girl is growing fangs! Who would have thought! Anyway, this is very important because looks like Pato is running towards her house.
Ernesto gets Esperanza's call in his office and guess what? Did you think Pato was going to see her mother after Luca left? Wrong! Even after we saw her running inside, she went to see her father instead. She witnesses Ernesto saying that he never takes no for an answer, and that want it or not he will be always meddling and being part of their lives. Now that Luca is gone Pato is ready to follow him, and thanks Ernst for the visa and the plane tickets calling him daddy for the first time. Looks like he didn't miss much in these 17 years, well, except when she first walked and lost her first tooth.
Aranza (Lackus identitum) didn't show up today but I couldn't allow this to go to waste, so I will say that Pedro was thinking about her when Ricardo stormed into the house telling Esperanza that Kracy was leaving taking the kids with her! Esperanza has already a full plate, what do you think she is going to do? Stop Kracy?

You are drop dead funny, some of these are simply brilliant .
More later. ..
I remember when I did this to PEAM and tried it again. I am glad you found the funny side that I see when I watch SdA, or what I call SUEÑO DE HORROR...
"either that or he stayed for her gorgeous bank account", "Anastasia (fauxblondix skankis" and "Pedro wishes he could go and fight Erasmo, but revenge is sweet and he have to check his wrist monitor first" were among my favorites.
Ricardo had quite the tale of woe didn't he? And yet, I am still indifferent!
Kristel and Erasmo tend to have their most intimate moments on the construction site, don't they? I'm smiling that I suspect in the real world, they would be subject to many catcalls and teasing among the crew. Here, everyone simply goes about their business with nary a glance.
Adrián is in dire need of attention. But Vivi is blindly wrapped up in her own foolish machinations to try and get Ernesto back to realize her son is in crisis.
And Mario. Who never looks foolish to me but now seems optimistic and hopeful. I wish him well.
Diana
"(fauxblondix skankis)"
''I almost died''. I am sure tomorrow he will add ''but I didn't''
I don't think I have ever wanted to be rid of a subgalan more than Luca
Diana, Adrián is just a sad character right now. I was sorry that Luca didn't see the bottle when he came in his room to say goodbye. Of course, with all of the drama on so many levels, I thought Luca was never going to be able to leave.
It looked like poor fired Triana had stitches in the side of her head and not just a bandaid. Ricardo was downright ignorant to her. I wonder what that story really is or what is being set up. He is nastier to her than Tracy who chose the gorillas over him and the kids. Something is off.
BTW, I almost laughed when Ricardo actually said Tracy had chosen to save the gorillas over him and the kids. Cristián de la Fuente is quite an actor that he was able to deliver that line with a straight face.
Sorry, but I just cannot get used to "La Virgen de la Paz".
Nacho needs new friends: the two other stooges telling him any woman who does not like her man's friends is just not a keeper!!! Will he finally shake off peer pressure and become the man Begoña deserves? Doubt it.
Feliciana seems to be just goofy enough for goofy Mario: two peas in a pod.
I cannot wait for Silvana's eviction and the story behind that. Credit card bills??
So Ricky was incarcerated for 6 years didn't he have a pencil to write a letter and a pigeon to affix it to?
Thanks so much, Pablo. Hilarious read.
My DVR opted not to record this last night for some reason...maybe it's trying to tell me something. So anyway, I haven't seen it yet and can't contribute anything specific.
The Virgen de la Paz business sounds so forced. Is this an actual thing in some areas? Did the Virgen de Guadalupe retire so now everyone knows to appeal to Miss Peace instead? Whenever they mention her, they sound like they're playing a game where they get points if they find a way to say it in a scene where it wasn't scripted. Even in places where something like "thank God!" would sound natural, the virgen bit never does.
I did think Principal Shrew and Architect Doormat were living pretty high on the hog for their professions. I'm not really sure where architects rate in the telenovelalandia scale from construction company owners (all the money in the world for rooftop dinners with private orchestras, personal goons, and Jarvar) down to bricklayers (starving). Around here, architect and bricklayer would both be solid middle-class jobs, unless the architect in question is a superstar type with lots of people working in his own company and making money for him.
Triana needs a good consultation with HR...
And yes, I wish that bottle had been sticking out a bit more for Luca to see!
Diana
Not to mention the supreme level snark!!!
***And thank you to Nandicta, Jarifa, and Adriana for your recaps!!! Sometimes, I have to briefly scan them with no time to comment.
I'm still kind-of-sort-of watching and mostly have it on as background noise when I'm doing other stuff, so I'm not exactly up to speed on all the finer points of this telenovela, but, whatevs. I don't think there will be a mid-term or final exam on it.
Finally, Reecherd gave Esperanza a lame-o reason as to why he went missing the past ... wait for it ..... because here it is again.....direct from telenovelaland .....veinte años.
;-p
