Sueño de amor, Ep. #32 (4.21.2016) The case of the search of the criminal based only on a crayon drawing
Antes muerta que arrugada
Better dead than wrinkled. Its hospital time again and the turn now is for Viviana who just woke up from an express coma. Too fast for a non-believer. I guess Esperanza has ''palancas'' with her sponsor Virgen de la Paz and her circle of prayers worked. Viviana is (as Esperanza was in her moments of need) surrounded by her loved ones, including the ones who will be always around her as long as she has money.
Be careful what you wish for, she wanted to be at least 15 years younger and she is now a newborn. Talk about taking 50+ years off with a single surgery!
Pato, in a very convenient scene, heard about Ana and Ernesto's affair and immediately told Luca, who confronted Ernesto, who denied everything until proof was shown. This is unforgivable, it is scandalous (and I come from the theater). Luca thinks father and son should never share the same woman. He almost asked for his kidney back. Just when he was saying ''you're dead to me'' Adrián shows up and his jaw falls to the floor. Don't worry brother, assures Luca, there's no problem between father and I. I said ''your head is clean''
Commercial break: Lala cheese is soooo good, that even when you put it in the coldest tortilla, it melts by itself!! Yummy, and it doesn't contain polyethylene terephthalate!!
Copelas o cuello*
Ricardo and Iker stake Isaac Rey out and speak about the future. Iker wants to know WWRD when this case is solved (as if) and Ricardo says that here in México he has ''his only hope''. Besides, he likes teaching.
As soon as Mr Rey arrives, is surrounded by the whole swat nopal team and even when he also uses a device to speak, his hands are in perfect condition, so no fingerprints and no shadow here. There's an army of shadows, do the FBI have fingerprints for all of them? They don't even have a picture! Ricardo, who right now could hold a burning nail just to solve the case he hasn't been able for the last ten years, threaten Mr King with the Desoxyribonucleic acid test. Right now, only Prof. Israel could mistake Mr Rey for the shadow. Sorry Charlie, Isaac is not the shadow, at least for now. Ricardo, fearing Mr Andrew Wellbank's reaction, remembers how he used to yell at Triana, and does the same to Iker, in an endless loop that could make Clive Barker envious. Go back to square one.
I only have one hour before the call, and to prevent him from firing me again, I will quit!!
Since all the De la Colina men are outside fighting, Anastasia takes this moment to visit Vivian, who seems very happy. Ignorance is bliss or the anaesthesia that failed to work during the procedure is finally kicking in.
At the Palaces Institute for gifted minds, Miss Serna still circles the number ten prolonging the zero all the way around like my teacher did in the 70s. That's why she calls it ''diez cerrado'', because is surrounded by its own tail. Jealous of Roddy's achievements, Moisés tries to make him fall, but Homero saves the day, and tells his dear friend he has the latest RPG (role play game) of the dragon while Moy is sent to detention.
Gorillas are officially extinct
Whaaaaat? Kracy is back at the Palacios? So she definitely forgot about the gorillas and Silvana took her just like that? What about the paperwork and the red tape? Well, I guess Silvana can ''do and undo'' to her ''holy will'' (hacer y deshacer a su santa voluntad) with no need to approval of the Santillanas. Sure, they need each other to accomplish their maleficent plans. Reecherd won the custody after the hanky drunky panky in the LA hotel and now he is Libra (even if he was not born between september 23rd and october 22nd). Silvana keeps correcting her but when the coffee mug disappears both freak out. Shrieking is an universal language.
Mapato (mapa + pato) are happy for Ricardo. He's free for grabs! Now to marry again and have more kids! Whoope! But, Esperanza says she is ''ciscada''. She probably got burnt drinking hot milk and now she blows even the frozen yogurt! Good vibes anyway!
It's alright to cheat when you're broke
Outside the hospital, a very fast and furious Ernesto catches up with Ana and grabs and shakes her to see why she is after him and Luca at the same time. Three times I cheated on you, the first one for money, the second one for pleasure and the third one for despite. Besides, I have an excuse because I am broke, remember? Again?? Why did you do in Italy then, or maybe you were hiding in a house next to the Gallos while people thought you were ''en el extranjero'' in the foreign?
Inside the hospital, Luca and Adrián test the waters asking Viviana about Ana. This is not the moment of truth yet.
Back at the Palacios Institute for terrorist brats, Felix complains that someone spilt oil and he fell from his hoverboard.
Selena wishes her mother was Esperanza while Pamela is watching, I guess she is wishing the same too since Esperanza has proven to be the perfect mom. Selena thinks her mother was accidentally irradiated with gamma rays, because she becomes a monster when she is mad. Good, the Marvel version is better, she is too young to know about schizophrenia.
Money and love is something you can't hide
After that mommy chat, Esperanza has to go to Colegio Naconcelos, where Nalgarita (more a tragic annoyance than a comic relief -to me) and Estrella, along with all the kids production could afford, are decorating with balloons and condoms and posters so Kiko feels welcomed when he returns. Nalgarita even makes a ''chistorete'' calling Ricardo ''campana'' (bell) because he is ''galán, galán, galán' (instead of talán, the official echomimetic sound). God, I am dying of laughing so hard! NOT!
I thought she meant that a bell ''hace ring'' and Ricardo's head is full of aserrín (sawdust). Now that's funny! She tells Estrella that this couple are so in love that they need a big push so they can finally get it right.
Musical break: Bricklayers videoclip. No wonder buildings fall. With Mario as the architect and this men as the construction workers, what can we get? La cabaña del tío Chueco?
Of course they had to include a double entendre in reverse (don't let it get hard? -the mix) Make up your mind, you want it hard or not? All the time Pfizer spent doing research for this! Ok, ok, don't think of Kristel, think of her grandma instead!!
Back at the PI, Kristel worries about some math test, that in reality is Pedro, when Pato and her big nose, promise to help because Luca taught her some ''techniques'' that are the best. Wow!They had time for everything!
Ricardo tells Esperanza Pamela is not la sombra's daughter, and for that he is out.
-No, have faith. Keep looking. Besides, you have been ''doing it'' for the last 10 years, or how many?
How long do you think it will take to investigate the parents of the other 398 kids? Remember we only have 150 more episodes to fill! Unless we get a sequel!
Silvana walks the school premises with Kracy when they see Kristel talking to Pato.
What? Add another stabbing on her back! Trying to help, Kracy takes this opportunity to tell Pato how good she is at guessing, because even when Pato has not done her english test yet, she will fail it!
Passing by and probably flaunting how lucky she is to have a date, Felicia tells ''Mario'' she will be ready this time to go and see his ''office''. Silvana ''para la oreja'' and her machiavellian brain started connecting the dots. That ''Mario'' has to be no other than ''HER MARIO'' the only Mario in México, who else, right?
Spying for dummies 101
Silvana and Kracy plans to fire Esperanza will only succeed if there's proof and Kracy will sacrifice herself doing the dirty work (someone has to do it) taking pictures of them when they least expect it. Even if she has to set foot in the ''other'' school.
To let go some steam for the failure of catching la sombra yet again, Ricardo asks the Naconcelos kids give him 50 ''lizards'' while Esperanza is discreetly watching his flexing buttocks from the distance. If he looks like this here, imagine him in bed!! Cold shower on aisle 13!
Nalgarita approaches her silently as a penguin and says, I am both the principal and a fortuneteller (or a guesser) and I tell you, warrior woman, take this 2nd chance and live your true love. Thank you Captain obvious!
During recess, Pedro daydreams about Kristel in front of Aranza. He sees the ex red haired doll come to him and tell him that she loves him and gives him a kiss. Sherwin-Williams matched the color of the trimming of her uniform to her hair perfectly! Reality bites when Ara wakes him up all drooly. He has to bring as much blood to his brain as he can, to tell Aranza a good excuse.
Love makes you blind
After the exercises, nothing better than lovey dovey touchy feely oblivious to the enemy nearby. Kracy takes the pic but oh alas, drops her Fisher Price phone and shatters in thousand pieces se le hace añicos on the ground! Everything, the screen, the battery and/or the memory stick jumps out of it. Hopefully the pics are still in the memory and can be salvaged, right? She insists in saying that she will be ''a shadow' that will follow them after their every move. Stop with the red herrings Johnny River Bear!
Ernesto doesn't tolerate three things: personal calls and family reunions during work hours and stupidity. The campaign against Ricardo planting false evidence to make him look bad is not working. And RICARDO HAS A LOT OF TRUE EVIDENCE TO LOOK AT! But Mario is a bad architect, a bad husband and a bad spy. Ernesto doesn't sing bad the rancheras, either. He has no patience for inept employees and more when they dont give the results he expect. He compares adultery notes with Mario talking about Ana and Felicia.
Here's my 2 cents: If you want something done, do it yourself, Ernesto. Meanwhile, Silvana chose a very bad momentou to confront her husband and Ernesto is red with anger feeling surrounded by inepts. Begoña, who could not stop Silvana from entering feels relieved because its wednesday and she has underwear on. The argument escalates until Silvana slaps Mario who luckily didn't lose his fake tooth again. After Bon QuiQui called socority, Ernesto and Silvana blame each other and each other's offspring over who raped who and how.
Qui est le nom de cette merde?
I ignore how many days have passed but Esperanza is again in the classroom with a list of spanish writers and their works. Maybe she needs to pay an homage to one of them.
There's one from Juan Ruíz de Alarcón (The walls have ears), Three from Lope de Vega (The miracle's knight, Fuenteovejuna and The discreet woman in love), and the rest from Calderón de la Barca (Handsome ghost, Life is a dream and Love is nobody's joke).
Then she encounters Virgilio, who has written the SUEÑO DE AMOR theater play for the contest on his ''sueño de amor'' laptop. He had some ''sueño de amor'' ice cream and ''sueño de amor'' bottled water and even applied some of his ''sueño de amor'' cologne so the teacher remembers him while she reads it. Ricardo enters with Homero and Virgilios face turns red as a ''sueño de amor'' canned tomatoes, because Ricardo asks who broke the perfume bottle. Once the dynamic duo is gone, Ricardo asks Esperanza for a favor. He wants all the records of the students to see if any of the other 398 is related to the shadow.
Can you imagine the turn of events in the case Ricardo hasn't found that famous drawing?
Is it that important to base a whole investigation on it? FBI don't have any other lines of investigation? Really, Ricardo? Really?
Salma continues her campaign to trap Adrián calling him all the time and harassing him. Sasquatch Astrid is ignored when she comments something Salma didn't like.
Félix and Esperanza comment about the theater play for students while he complains about his heartache, because is way more painful than his elbow and knee together.
Silvana confronts Felicia Farfán about the cheating. It was only a suspicion, but turned out to be true. In Felicia's defense, she didn't know he was a member of Ernesto's club (I didn't lie, i simply didn't tell you because you never asked). Neither of them know that Mario is not worth the fight.
Viva la familia!
Later on, The Alegrías become the Alegreros visiting the ''girl from UNCLE'' so Pedro can help the kids with homework while the grown ups do the searching, Esperanza ''borrowed'' all the files from the kids in 3rd and 4th grade from the cabinets and now Ricardo will be able to check them. His bureau should have a database but heck no, his infiltration in this school must give fruits. I insist on knowing only one thing:
What if shadow had no kids and Ricardo never found that drawing he has as the only evidence? Would the bureau be exhausting other sources and/or handling this issue differently? Juárever!
Back to work. Sale y vale! Pedro gets a text from Aranza canceling the date. She seem to be hiding something because when she got home, she changed clothes and look and got on the bus probably to see a client. I am sure she is also into role playing!
Cebollazos time start with synonyms and antonyms. -But, what's a synonym, Pedrou?
-I am glad you asked, my little grasshopper, since México is famous for naming the same thing with more than ten different words. You know, we are into making things easier. Take turkey as an example, you can call it cócono, pípila, guajolote, pavo, huilo, totol. Cat is gato, minino, morrongo, etc. And when I say tricky, cunning, slicky, what do you say?
- Ricky!,
-and when I say Biutiful? -Esperanza! -Yells Selena.
Then Esperanza goes, and when I say Pretty smart? -Selena! Wow! At this rate, soon they will be speaking better spanish than english!
War of the Colinas
Viviana is still in the hospital with her whole family and this time they argue about shares. She knows all about Ana and demands a divorce. I hope this time she mean it. She only have 30% share and the rest in CDs, but she will get a divorce and wants 50% of everything they own. Even when the money came from her in the beginning, he has made the business grow, so is all equal. Talking about money brings out the worst of us and the blaming game starts, who cheated first? and why? Who forgave who first, and why? Anyway, 51% is needed to have unlimited power, so she has to think of something fast! Selling the house and split the money 50/50 would be great but, would Ernesto allow her to invest and to become his partner?
Kristel has decided to sell her white car to help her dad even when he rejects the idea.
The sibling rivalry prompt her to not be left behind and let Erasmo burn her ''pink marshamallow''. Now she wants to clean her conscience doing what she think is best.
Coming soon: The stunning beauty of Kristel will make ''walking in NYC as a woman'' pale in comparison, while she rides the bus to school!! Where's granny when we need her?
*Copelas o cuello (cooperate or die) was something Shenly Ye Gon said, arguing that he was forced to do something against his will, when police found drugs and money in his place.

Thanks, Pablo, for the fun and laughs today. There are too many wonderful zingers to pick just one as the favorite. You were even trilingual with the français! Ha! Ha!
it was my ''excuse my french'' moment... LOL

Pablo: I totally agree with Jarifa, that this was wonderful and a joy to read.
You had me laughing out loud with "Better dead than wrinkled", "Be careful what you wish for, she wanted to be at least 15 years younger and she is now a newborn" and especially "Begoña, who could not stop Silvana from entering feels relieved because its wednesday and she has underwear on".
I wish Ernesto had taken his anger out at being interrupted on Sil rather than Begona and poor, browbeaten Mario.
It would have been nice if the brothers had a few minutes of peace with their father. I still think the big revelation about Ernesto's (another) cheating could have waited. I'm sure it will be another 16 years before Adrian gets another hug from his father.

Diana, you sure are right about how it is going to be a long time in between hugs for Adrián.
My favorite scene last night was the song and dance act at the construction site. Maybe they can turn this into a full fledged musical at some point.

Oooh, yes, Jarifa, forgot about the singing. Erasmo was kind of strutting his stuff, wasn't he?
Great fun!

Great fun!

Great recap, Pablo! I actually laughed out loud at your "aserrín" joke, and only rolled my eyes at Margarita's attempt at humor. I like your other jokes also; they're too numerous to name.
The construction site musical interlude was surreal, but so funny. And I completely missed the "don't let it get hard" un-tendre. I'll have to pay more attention if they do more singing and hip-swiveling at the site. There are SO MANY inappropriate puns to make with construction talk.
What was that, two whole episodes before Ricardo started abusing Iker the way he mistreated Triana? Who else on the Patio wants to join me in getting La Sombra jerseys and hats and foam fingers? We can do the Picasso face paint, too, for the next big raid, and do the La Sombra cheer, which mainly consists of cackling at Ricardo in a distorted voice when he fails yet again.

I'm with you Julia! Ricardo needs to attend a sensitivity class. He has a chip missing (Jennifer Anniston's words to Brad).
