Yago #6. Monday May 9, 2016. Discussion Page + Highlights By Julie And Vivi.
Two of our Patio regulars kindly contributed this impromptu recap. Many thanks to both!
Labels: yago
What do I remember from last night... ah yes...
Katia gets her hands on Ambar's medical records and Yago finds out that Ambar was admitted to the hospital just days before (or after?) the heist and questions if it's a coincidence. (duh)
Sara recalls that the hospital threatened to kick Ambar out because Sara's account was NSF. Turns out Sara's father kept her share as well as his own because his own welfare was more important to him than Ambar's. Lucio offered to pay Ambar's hospital bill himself.
Sara tells Yago that there are only two people she's loved in her life: Ambar and this other man in her past who isn't Lucio and she feels badly for betraying him.
Abel visits the man who spoke to Bruno earlier and scares the hell out of him and uses his pliers to, I think, pull out one of his fingernails or maybe actually crush his fingers, I couldn't tell. That's not a nice way to use pliers! The guy moves out overnight, so isn't around for Bruno's follow-up visit.
Sara is pissed off that Lucio took out that gigantic loan without her consent and threatens to leave him - but she can't, because he has a tape recording from a years-ago similar conversation where she mentions that they both participated in the casino heist and Omar didn't. If she leaves him, he'll turn her in. Never mind that he'll be turning himself as well - he's cool with going to prison as long as she's going too. (Uh, he gets that they don't have bridal suites at the prison, right?)
Omar's mom gets a call from the psychic, who says Omar is in danger and the only guy who can track her down is an out-of-town shaman. Melina hocks her ring for bus fare. The shaman gives her an herbal drink. She flips out (I don't understand what she sees in her "vision") and takes off, yelling "it's a lie! It's a lie!" She wanders around blindly in the street and gets hit by a car.
What else?
Honestly, I'm amazed that people aren't lined up around the corner to recap this one. It's short, and it's GOOD.
Sara did say, aside from Matias, there are two people she has loved...So she includes her son.
Lucio, in flashback, offered to pay for Ambar's medical care, and then immediately asked Sara to marry him. It was implied that one couldn't happen without the other.
We get voice-over of Ambar's thoughts as she thinks about how Sara has always had to sacrifice for her. She remembers as a little girl overhearing Sara cry and argue with their dad about setting Omar up, and him pointing out Ambar's illness. Ambar doesn't want her sister to do something she doesn't want to do. That extends later to marrying Lucio (whom we learn Ambar never warmed to). Girl Ambar asks Sara on her wedding day not to wed Lucio, but Sara shares a secret with her-- she's pregnant. (It's seeming more and more that she passed Omar's baby off on Lucio.)
Now, "it's a lie" can refer to a lot of things. It's a lie that Omar committed the crimes. It's a lie that Omar is dead. And it's a lie that the medium and the shaman can help her communicate with Omar.
And I forgot, right, she loves Matias. Ooops. That's important!
And so is the rest of the stuff. Especially the video, and Ambar's memories. Poor Ambar, knowing that stuff was happening because of her. And poor Bruno - he has no idea that he's confiding in the devil.
"That's not a nice way to use pliers!"
No way for Bruno to know Lucio is one of the bad guys but I cringe when he tells all.
So glad Katia is there to bring Yago back to earth and remind him Sara set this thing up. He latches on little things so he can absolve her. Even Sara told her father she could have found another way. She didn't because it was too easy to betray Omar and she got away with it.
Melina is headed to a manicomio. It's one thing to think your son is alive. It's another to spend up Jonas' advance, family money and pawning your wedding band on psychics.
Also, Yago donated blood for Ambar. And Abel got all in his face, yelling at him for pretending to be a "nice guy." Yeah, what an asshole, donating blood to help save a life!
The timeline doesn't work for me. If the robbery took place 12 years ago that means Ambar was 16 when she went into the hospital. There is no way the girl playing Ambar is 16, closer to 12. Maybe the casting directors didn't think we would feel as sorry for a girl of 16. Also, at 16 her daddy would have had her pimping herself I'm sure.
So I guess we are all supposed to be softening towards Sara. I admit I am darn it! I don't want to. I would say that maybe her anvil began when she married Lucio but up until last night they seemed to have an affection for each other, meaning he hasn't had to threaten her to stay with him, so she is there willingly. Also, as far as we know, they have done well in business and have had a lot of money (none of which seems to have gone to Omar's family) Is her guilt enough of an anvil? I don't think so. Not at this point.
I think Lucio just overplayed his hand with Sara. Him threatening her with the recorder was the worse thing he could have done. He'll never regain her trust or affection now.
Melina is driving me crazy. I don't like stupid old people. Hope she's not dead though. That would be horrible for her family.
I'm going to be celebrating their downfall when Yago destroys them & if I were him, I'd take ALL of their wealth!
Did anyone else get a creep vibe during the flashback scene of Sara and her father? I have been wondering whether there had been anything incestuous in their relationship and Ambar might be the result. It's not like this hasn't happened before.
Abel is on my permanent merde list now.
I agree in the hope that Melina is still alive.
I think Ambar is meant to be seen as small & frail & delicate. She is pushing 30 but looks 20. She was probably 15 going on 16 when the heist went down.
I think the loan sharks will be taking all of Sara & Lucio's wealth.
Carlos
Urban, I didn't get that vibe at all. What I got between Ambar and her father is that she's not interesting to him until she's old enough to be useful.
As far as Sara, she can call it guilt if she wants to, but the bad feeling she has about Omar seems more to me like regret that he's no longer in her life. In other words, it's a bummer for her that he's not around, and whether or not it was a bummer for him too was always of lesser importance. I question her capacity for true remorse.
I'm now happy to see Abel killed off too, but still feel that he's the least of the evils, even if he is the one who does most of the dirty work. They use him as their thug and without them he'd probably be in prison because on his own, I doubt that he could mastermind a picnic.
But I still think Lucio is the worst of the bunch.
Carlos- I don't question telenovela medicine anymore. :) Giving blood made Yago look even more like a good guy, and gave him and Sara an opportunity to have a heart to heart. Now, if only Yago had been made to take off his shirt, as well as his sweater, when he gave blood-- THAT would have made it even better! Alas, the writers missed the opportunity.
Robredo leading by 230,000 votes.
If the knowledge that Sara was under family pressures when she (coldly) framed Omar gives Yago some answers then peace, so be it, it's not for me to judge. Sara still needs to answer to the law, she is responsible by association for the unnecessary death of a prison guard, I don't think the police will be sympathetic to her reasons, after the exposé of her cold actions. Also, Sara is beginning an emotional affair with Yago, while she is married to Lucio, her husband, her business partner and father (?) of her only son. She needs to cleanse herself of her grifter tendencies, her bad habits are far, far, far from purged from her soul.
Love our Nancy Drew detectives storyline, always interesting when Bruno and Alejandra are on the screen.
Sorry, still not a Sara fan. I get her back story, lord they remind us daily, but something about her willingness to still be manipulative, secretive and the way she came after Yago when her sister had the date, and now she is using this time in the hospital to smooze some more...I don't know how much I buy her being all full of remorse and how much is trying to win over Yago.
Hopefully he has Katia around to keep him reigned in.

I'm disappointed in Katia. It sure didn't take much. Let's face it, Abel is no criminal mastermind.
So that's what he does with those pliers... yikes!
Carlos
I love Katia's hair and now I get the bouffant reference. However, as witty as all of you are, or unless I missed it, why no mention of Abel's braided mullet? He deserves a big anvil for that look, not to mention his preoccupation with pliers.
Wasn't the shaman Sara and Ambar's father?
No, the shaman wasn't Sara's dad.
I will do my best not to mention the braided (and blonde-dyed) mullet again.
I hated seeing Omar's mother falling for the con and hate knowing that people like this continue to fleece the credulous and desperate. During all of her scenes, had to keep telling myself "it's just a story, just a story..."
The actor that is playing Bruno, what else have I seen him in? He looks so familiar.
Vivi in DC, "Yago" is not yet in México, it will be until August.
I like this show very much, but I don't like the way Yago is "melting" for Sara, he needs to remember the way his parents suffer while Sweet Sara was incapable of asumme responsability of her actions.
7- Sueño de amor
6 Eva la trailera
5 Un camino hacia el destino
4 El señor de los cielos 4
3 El hotel de los secretos
2 La esclava blanca
1 Yago
IMO El hotel is best
I think they need to recover the prime time slot, because with the latest telenovelas, ratings continue dropping.
I expect to explain correctly, english is not my first language.
I'm late to the Patio today, so don't really have anymore to add to what has already been said.
Hope that Melina will make it. We'll find out what happens soon.
Does Ambar have cancer relapse again ?
Tofie: Omar's parents still falling for the evil cons from Lucio, Abel & Sara & will continue to get conned until the very end of this show!
I won't hold my breath.
Thank you everyone for stopping by!
