Tres Veces Ana #52 and #53 - FlashBack To The Future
(All flashbacks discussed will be in italics)
Leonora has a flashback to a conversation with Facundo (aka Funky Dodo):
Funky says he plans to go back to Costa Paraiso. He asks her for forgiveness. She forgives & thanks him for a beautiful experience. Not wanting it to end, he asks her to go with him. He feels the family denied her the life she deserves, one that he'd offer her as his woman. She claims she had the chance, but was never brave enough to reach for happiness & feels she doesn't deserve it. He says it's her life, but he wants to thank her for helping him discover a heart that still beats. But due to her resistance, he can't resolve the sadness she feels inside. She nods and they bid each other goodbye.
Ana Let discovers her as he leaves. She confronts Leonora about her involvement with her FIL (father-in-law) and tells her she should be ashamed of herself.
Leonora realizes she cant betray Ana Let. She heads to her bedroom & tries to get Ana Let to come to her senses before she destroys herself. She has an opportunity to make things right & cant play w/ others' happiness (speaking on her manipulating their perception of Ramiro). Ana Let says she plans to fix all that, claiming they always had something special but never realizing it until now. Leonora is skeptical since Llora & Ram have loved each other since childhood. Ana Let says that in fact he'd always been in love w/ her & merely confused/distracted by Llora. "Men are incomprehensible, you should know". Leonora recoils at her insinuation. Ana Let goes on "Don't act prudish, thanks to me no one knows about your transgression. Don't meddle & offer opinions I didn't ask for". Leonora says she only meddles to offer advice. "Think on what I said. Don't say I didn't warn you". Let blows her a kiss goodbye. (I love her sass)
Remedios prepared a special dinner for everyone in the hostel to celebrate Santi's return. As Santi kisses AnaLu, Orblando looks on in contempt. Inaki comes in, followed by Ramiro. Orblando is surprised to see him.
Ramiro thanks everyone for everything they've done for Santicelo & is encouraged, by AnaLu, to sit next to her mother. Ram realizes who she is & also notices Orblando eyeing him. Uncomfortable silence ensues until AnaLu excuses her mom & urges her to say hi. Ramiro explains how he met Woe-ledad during his stay at San Nicholas w/ the "help" of Orblando. They talk of Chana & her skills at tarot cards. And Ram exclaims everything has come true so far, especially meeting Ana Lucia--someone who disappeared for years. Santi interjects to say that Chana was referring to him. .
Evaristo (or as my brother calls him, the Mexican Stan Lee) visits Chana. He gives her money & tells her it's the last time. He no longer needs her services since they won't be returning. She tells him that over time she grew fond of them while working for him, but that she's upset he lied to her about Ana Lu. He says he didn't want that weighing on her conscience. She offers to read his coffee & sees bad news. She asks him what he has & why he didn't tell her that he'd been sick. He says he's been sick for years. (Maybe it's leprosy from being around Ana Leprosa).

| Stevaristo Lee! |
Ramiro sits w/ Rem & Solebad (who looks like she bumped him to the top of her sh*t list), discusses Santi & their friendship/brotherhood. When he gets to be alone w/ Soul-less, he tells her that in his investigation he was looking for a Sofia Hernandez. Although he's sorry for her loss, AnaLu isnt her now will she ever be. "You have to let her go" Just then AnaLu comes in w/ Santi to ask if everything is ok & they assure that it is.
 |
| You just got bumped up on my sh*t list.... |
Julietta & Viridiana have a funny discussion about hunting men like prey. Julietta insists that a successful man makes money, and a successful woman nabs him & spends it. Viri see things differently. While Jules might be married, she's very much alone. Jules thinks when he retires, they'll have the rest of their lives together. Viri hopes that when that day comes, they wont feel like strangers. Then she drops some wisdom: It's better to be single & alone than to be w/ someone who makes you feel lonely aka "I can do bad all by myself" (Sing it, honey).
Inaki waits for Ramiro. Tadeo comes over to ask why hes MIA so much. Inaki says he likes to go to work instead of being a mediocre clown like him. Tadeo thinks they're not so different, says that Inaki wears his clothes like a costume. Tadeo replies "I take off my costume & remain the same. You can't fake being something you're not". He goes on to say he's not only ashamed of his dad & his origins, he's ashamed of himself. He understands his pain, but asks not to blame him for his mom's mistakes. Inaki says it was his fault she was miserable b/c she hated all this, so love isn't everything. But Tadeo corrects him, since she left him for another man. Inaki suggests it was someone more worthy. Tadeo reminds him that she didn't just become someone else's mate, but also someone else's mom. She abandoned & forgot them, which is why they should remain united. "Family & unconditional love is all you'll ever have. I don't care how many times you reject me, I'll always be here. By my side, you don't need a costume". (I think out of all the plotlines, Tadeo's story is the most touching)
Llora and TioM talk about the Ana Let issue. She asks that he doesn't get involved and let them work it out as sisters. He hugs her & offers his support no matter what happens. Then they playfully banter about not getting a signal. He tells her not to call him. She says uh yea, she can't. They bid goodnight. (So cute).
Santiago and Ramiro discuss Solebad. Santi informs him that AnaLu adores her. Ram suggests that may change once she learns about Sole's lies. Santi insists that Sole isn't wicked, just flawed (Well wicked or not, someone needs to knock her off her broom). Ramiro also discusses his encounter w/ Orblando, who stole his money. Santi says he has his own story w/ him, but thanks Ram for the warning. Santi then catches Orblando spying & sends him a death stare. Later, Orblando privately calls Evaristo to tell him they've got trouble.
But a snitch ain't one......
But a snitch ain't one......
TioM finds Viri sitting alone and asks to join her. He apologizes that he didn't stalk her today. She tells him it's ok, he needed to babysit. He tells her she was right about Llora. He thought she was fragile, but she's actually very wholesome & strong. She wishes she saw, the admirable gaze he has, on her father (*Adds daddy issues to the cliche checklist*). She says she tried for many years to gain his acknowledgement (well, you can always call Ana Let for tips). TioM says that her dad probably didn't know how to express himself, since it's undeniable that she's an amazing woman. He confesses he wasn't ready to be a father back then, but this was the 1st time he saw his niece take off prosthesis (unlike Let who takes off everything else). "My little girl in so much pain, I can't do anything to make it disappear. I'd give my life to see her run & return her spirit". Viri says that if she can't run, then help her fly.
Leonora prays for the sisters' relationship & has another guilt trip flashback.
Ana Let says she thought Leo was a saint nun & hopes she doesn't get in the habit of getting in bed w/ her grandma's guests. Leo refuses to let her speak to her this way. And Ana Let refuses to allow her to bite hand that feeds her. Leo tells her he's leaving & she won't see him anymore. But Let overheard his invitation, she mocks Leo's naivety that a man of his status would be interested in her. Leo thinks her cruel. Ana Let refuses to have her make them a laughing stock. Especially b/c he'd get bored & then send her to hell. "You'd forget us for good, think about us". Leo says there's no need since no one is more important to her than them. We then see Leonora put away the last letter from Dodo, leaving it unread.
AnaLu finds Santi sitting alone & asks for a sip of coffee. He bargains her for a kiss in exchange. Ana Let senses the kiss & has a flashback to Marcelo's lovemaking. She wonders what Marcelo wants & why he hides. Santi & AnaLu then discuss the awkwardness b/w Ram & Solebad. Sole barges in & asks her to come. "Same as always, she's always watching me. Not much has changed". She tries to give back his coffee, but he tells her to keep it. "Every sip is a kiss you owe me".

Yes, I'll have an Ana Latte mixed with a Mochacelo.
And gimme some suga.
Steamy. No foam

Ernestina has a flashback to the earrings discussion with Ana Let.
Erny: Dont be a brat, here's a cookie (opens a box of random earrings). Ana Let: I don't want these crumbs, I want the big choco. Leonora enters the room & apologizes for taking longer than usual. Erny tells her to spit it out, they always share their pains. Leonora says it's just memories that weigh heavy & changes the subject to Funky. Erny says no one has heard from him since Marcelo's death. Ana Let comes in to demand the earrings. Erny doesn't remember where they are, but says she hasn't forgotten the dinner & is happy for her, yet wants to know why his identity is such a secret. Let says it'll be a surprise, he needs to be there to clear all doubts & asks Erny to reserve judgement for her happiness. Erny assumes the secret guest is Marcelo.
Inaki & Ramiro talk about Santicelo's situation regarding AnaLu & AnaLet. He thinks he should let AnaLu go b/c she won't be happy to find out the truth. Otherwise, he should let AnaLet redo her life w/ someone new. Ramiro pries until he gets Inaki to confess his feelings for AnaLet. He assures Inaki that Santi plants to confront her soon w/ a divorce. Inaki says he supports him & won't betray him, but once the woman he loves is free, it's open season. He wants Ram to not expose him until he gets a chance to speak w/ Santi And Ramiro asks Inaki not to disclose the divorce to AnaLet. He also warns him that she's clever, disloyal, treacherous, & loves no one but herself. Inaki says he knows her better than he thinks & just likes her. But Ram insists that she's got issues & now that Santi is remembering her treachery, he plans to finally end it.
Solebad confronts Santi accusing him of betrayal. He says he didn't know they knew each other. She tells him that he did an investigation of her entire past. Santi placates her and promises that Ramiro won't talk, she can sleep sound. She then asks him "Are you sure YOU can sleep, Marcelo?"
Subplots:
Leonora finally reads Dodo's last letter. She's a fast reader.
Inaki has a flashback to the bar fight. He remembers Daniel yelling at Ana Let that she's doing the same thing to him that she did w/ Marcelo. Inaki realizes he was her lover.
Santi goes to his bedroom mirror. Marcelo asks for his life back "I need revenge". Santi orders himself to WAKE UP. Marcelo orders him to REMEMBER.
Viri gets back to her boutique & likes the work they did. She hopes Sole stays w/ them & doesnt leave Mexico. She then picks out a few outfits for Llora.
Tio drops off Llora. She greets Ernestina, but is sad Let did't come to welcome her. Valentin surprises her w/ flowers.
AnaLu brings Santi coffee, & asks if he's ok. He says he had a bad dream, but he's happy to see she pays her debts. Although she says she owed kisses instead. She claims to have finished it in one sip. Santi doesn't argue. "You owe me one, but a very long one". (Hmmm, *mails Rulli a barrel of coffee.....waits patiently*)
Julietta is settling back in her house. Inaki arrives to pay, a still sleeping Dani, a visit. He mentions who he is & she drops her coffee cup. She makes up a lie that she burned her fingers. She stares intently at her long-lost son & tells the maids to let Dani know his friend is here. Dani appears & says that isn't a friend, just a gato who works for Ana Let's uncle. Dani wants a cat fight, but Jules intervenes. Dani says Ana Let doesn't want a poor guy, she needs someone at her level. Inaki remains unfazed, he offers an address Dani knows so well, "You know, the apartment that belonged to Marcelo while you had your affair. Oh & bring your bodyguards if you're scared". Jules asks if they're interested in the same woman. Dani confirms: "Yea but I'm not the one who's going to lose". (*snort* Dude, she dropped your behind already). Jules notices the paper & grabs the address.
Leonora found Funky & doesn't recognize him. He tells her came to escape reality. She says she finally read his letter. He's mad it took her 3 years, what changed her mind? She says someone needs him. He thinks she means herself,& he rants about how she abandoned him at the worst time of his life. Now he waits for death to reunite him w/ his son & wife. She ruined his life, yet here she is trying to fix it now? He wanted a chance to redo his life w/ her but not anymore. He tells her to get out. She reveals that his son is alive. He thinks she's playing w/ him. He buried him himself, he's as dead as he is. She promises to come back w/ proof.

| WILSOOONNNNNNNNN!!!!! |
Orblando sees AnaLu come out of Santi's bedroom, then asks her if she has any respect for herself & basically calling her a slut. Ana Luchadora slaps him hard. "I'm sick of you!", she leaves. Marcelo comes out w/ his bad self & slams Orblando against the wall. With his muscles heaving, he threatens that he takes care of things differently than Santi. (*spritzes herself w/ water*). He demands every peso stolen from Ram & orders him to stay away from AnaLu. "Santiago doesn't want parasites like you, so leave calmly or I'll make you disappear". Confused by this, Orblando asks him who he is. Marcelo responds "That depends on you, I can be your worst nightmare". Santiago suddenly snaps out of it & asks Orblando what he's doing there. Orblando comically responds "I'm leaving".
Telenovela Luchador!!!!!
Telenovela Luchador!!!!!
Villantin wonders why Llora seems to be avoiding him. She says they need to talk, but now isn't the time. He assumes this is TioM's doing, except she says Tio respected her decision & isn't in any way influencing her. He demands to know if they talked about him. She confesses they did & that she may have rushed to quickly into a relationship so soon after Ramiro. He pleads with her that he doesn't want to lose her. She says she's confused & needs time to think. She'll talk to him once she figures things out.
Ramiro pays Sedillo a visit, asking for his services & discretion regarding paperwork on behalf of Marcelo Salvaterra. Sedillo is willing, considering he owed Marcelo many favors. The secretary pages him that he has a visitor by the name of Santiago Garcia. Ram tells him it's someone they both know. Santi comes in & Sedillo is incredulous. After learning about his memory loss, Sedillo says he won't go behind his friend's back. He expresses loyalty to TioM & AnaLet. Santi asks for a few days before he notifies her about the divorce. Sedillo replies "Not even one". Ram thanks him para nada & they leave. Santi is worried he'll notify her. Ram asks if he remembers the favor Sedillo owes him. Santi says he doesn't. Ram apologizes & goes off to look for a new lawyer. Santi looks at his reflection in a window & Dr. Jekyll becomes Mr. Hyde. Marcelo barges in & asks for the key to his security box. He tells him that AnaLet cheated on him & Sedillo is going to help him exact his revenge.
AnaLencería in another Victoria Secret get-up approaches the front of her house & calls out to "Violentin!" who is waiting outside. She mocks him hoping he enjoyed her earlier impersonation. She tells him she was waiting for him to leave, so she can warn Llora about him. He thinks it'll push Llora into Ram's arms. She's not concerned saying "He's no longer interested in her". She gets closer to him, taunting him. "What'll hurt her more is realizing Tio lied to her about putting you in that wheelchair". She cackles as he pushes her off him. He motions for her to come closer & menacingly, he says "Tell her everything. Break her". Ana Let is taken aback, & asks if he's being serious. "The more you destroy her, the more she'll come to my arms". She smirks at his attempts to manipulate her at her own game. "Pass through in your carriage, bye Violentin!" (ahahaha, I love this woman).
Ana Let finds Llora, they hug & tell each other they miss one another. She tells her about the trip. Ana Let is glad she didn't go b/c she'd have been bored, she thinks that Tio is more interested in Llora. Llora asks her not to say things like that. Ana Let insists he's the only man who can love her seriously, since she can't live like a normal woman. Llora defensively says that thousands have done it before. "Why am I any different?". Ana Let says it's her personality. "Villantin is playing you & you're incapable of dealing w/ him. You believe any imbecile who tells you nice things". Llora tells her she always finds a way to hurt her. Unconvincingly, Ana Let apologizes for sounding so harsh, but informs her that Val is getting revenge on Ram through her. She confesses she impersonated her and found out about his past & intentions. He was Gina's former lover. Llora thinks she's mistaken. But Ana Let triumphantly laughs that he confessed it to her himself. "Haha I fooled him so good. She left him, now he's jealous of Ramiro & blames him for her suicide". She then says bitingly that unlike Llora, she knows how to treat men & get what she wants out of them. Llora can't believe this, he seemed so sweet. Ana Let is reveling in this "You should've seen his face. He wanted to die when he realized it was me!". Llora storms out.

Looking forward to it Anna. Good episodes, but they were really dragging out getting to this dinner!
They've now evolved SantMarc from being an amnesiac to now having split personality disorder. Not sure how I feel about that. But at least Marcelo steps in to take names and kick butt when Santiago backs down. It's a good backup personality to have. ;-)

Also looking forward to this, Anna. You've got a whopper to deal with now.
Vivi, I agree. I'm not sure how I feel about how they're evolving SantMarc's memory recovery. I hope he continues to take names and kick butt. What could happen to him is a recovery similar to the one in The Three Faces of Eve where he integrates who he was with who he became so that he retains the survival instinct and ambition but with a gentler attitude. He will probably not be in favor of putting Soledad in the slammer, but I personally hope she gets arrested anyway because she is trying to keep Ana Lucia from living her own life.
As to SantMarc's pursuit of Ana Lucia, I'm all for it. Ana Leticia didn't enter the marriage with proper intent and that could be grounds for an annulment. She is also a criminal now and that is also grounds for annulment. However, knowing how long it will take for that to become known, I hope he can get free sooner.

Heck, she put a hit out on SantMarc, that should be grounds for annulment right there.
The lawyer seemed non-chalant about SantMarc returning from the dead. It was like this:
Ramiro: We both know this client.
Lawyer: Ok, send him in.
*SantMarc comes in*
Lawyer: Meh
I do hope the love & care of Leonor & knowing his son is alive will encourage Facundo to take a shower.

We have many more episodes for the 3 Faces of Ana and 2 faces of Marcelo/Santiago, along with the rest of the characters with their 'disorders' to come to some resolution. I think we are in for a real bumpy ride with Evaristo as the evil puppet master.
I think the issue of the 'divorce' will prove to be a key element in the drama. When Ana Leticia learns that he wants to marry Ana Lucia -- a threat to her economic prospects and her current disordered psychological state -- she will try to figure out a way for Evaristo to put both Marcelo and Ana Lucia under the ground.

Looking forward to your recap Anna.
I just can't get over how Ana Le is so demanding and mean! "I want those earrings! Did you love Jennifer more than me?" Ugh! She's like a little kid and has never grown up. No empathy for anyone. Such a sociopathic personality. I am liking Santiago become more Marcelo because I am liking the strength. The Santiago personality is a little too meek and mild, he needs to kick some ass some more.
What is the story about Evaristo and Soledad? Did I hear correctly? Did he say she is his daughter?

What is the story about Evaristo and Soledad? Did I hear correctly? Did he say she is his daughter?
Cynthia- Evaristo was the boyfriend/lover of Soledad's mom. There is no blood tie. She considers him only as her mom's boyfriend (although she has no problem calling on him whenever she has a problem). He considers her his daughter.
Soledad is not Evaristo's daughter by DNA. However, he didn't fill in any more info on this; the writers gave us just enough to whet our curiosity.
Evaristo is now ill, but he didn't say with what. I'm guessing it's cancer.
I'm not liking that Chana is on his payroll, but it makes sense because she told SantMarc that he was married. How else would she know? What will her connexion with Ev mean going forward?
Glad to see that SantMarc went after Orlando for scamming cash out of Ramiro. And when is he going to get on his case about chasing Ana Lucia and not respecting her rejections? Orlando shows her far less respect than he does.
SantMarc needs a shrink ASAP. Ana Leticia needed one when she was 5.
Cynthia, I am on the same page. Ana Leticia is being a spoiled brat about those earrings. Ernestina is entitled to give them to whomever she wants to. She should put them in a safe deposit box at the bank. I'm betting everyone a virtual bottle of Chanel that Ana Lucia will be wearing them when she marries SantMarc.

Floodgate- Evil puppet master is right! Finding out that he is Chana's boss was a surprise, but not a shock. This guy (or his offspring) has his fingers in every single pie in this tn. As I joked before, I wouldn't be shocked if it turned out he was even behind separating Ernestina from Rodrigo 40 years ago, because, why not? He's behind everything else!
The problem I have with Orlando is he has ZERO respect for Ana Lucia. I'm sorry but you don't go around telling people Ana Lucia is a slut, then telling Ana Lucia she's a slut but at the same time claim to "love" and "care" for her.
No my brother, don't claim to "love" me but call me a slut because I don't want to be with you.
Ana Lucia is surrounded by people who "love and care" for her but who don't mean her any goodwill (Soledad, Maribel, Orlando).

We learned in this episode that Ana Leticia is a minute older than Ana Laura. I wonder if Ana Laura is the baby triplet or the middle triplet?

Amen, Anon207! Any time AnaLu gives Orlando more than two seconds of her time to say hello and keep on moving, I wonder why she is even giving him the time of day. He has shown her who he is more than enough times for her to know he's not worth having a conversation with. Glad she finally slapped him and walked away.
Unrelated to that...did you see how fit Orlando looked in his tight dance practice clothes last episode? The guys in this tn must be hitting the gym together every day.

Yes, I did notice Orlando's fitness level. These actors must be competing with each other.
Inaki didn't recognize Julieta, but she recognized him. She is going to be shaking in her shoes as much as Soledad from this point on. Notice she had three maids? No wonder Daniel is such a spoiled brat.
I'll bet Viridiana scored some audience points for picking out those dresses to give to Ana Llorona, even if her motive is to impress Mariano.

These two hour episodes are killers at night after a long day at the office. But no time to watch next day, so slugging through. Hats off to the recappers having to do these.
Orlando and Facundo should both be sent to Great Cuts. Cripes, guys. Facundo was a bit too touchy for my taste last night, no matter how upset. Another one who has a lost a few screws among the weeds? Lovely
At the mention of the earring...I've about had it with those.(UA-- you're on to something with the importance and symbolism.) But when she goes off on the "their mine mine mine" why that doesn't make all interested parties sit up and realize what a spoiled beyotch she is, I don't know what will. I think the part of feeling bad for the both girls in general for losing their parents and being in that accident is over. Llora has the physical scars, but the coddling and inability to get her to feel more confident was on those who helped raise her. As for AnaLe, well there is some mental issues there from the start, but perhaps a better hand at putting some structure and allowances in place would have served as she grew. Both girls should have had psychiatric help to heal along the way early on. As for AnaLe, that girl must have been a riot to have as a student in the classroom....NOT. Let's have a moment of silence for those poor teachers.
Interesting twist on Chana. Makes some sense now with all those clever card readings.
Well, we certainly didn't get any call of the blood with Inaki and his bro.

Both girls should have had psychiatric help to heal along the way early on. As for AnaLe, that girl must have been a riot to have as a student in the classroom....NOT. Let's have a moment of silence for those poor teachers.
Interesting twist on Chana. Makes some sense now with all those clever card readings.
Well, we certainly didn't get any call of the blood with Inaki and his bro.
I don't think her motive was to impress Mariano (she's already has his admiration). I think she truly liked Ana Laura and thinks she would look cute in those clothes.
Also, did anyone else see some previews on, what I thought was a movie advertisement, but is it an upcoming new series?
If they yanked Yago because of the subject and low ratings...what is with another crime, gang related drama?
Hope it was a movie only.

There aren't many episodes left on Yago (I have to catch up on the last two) so what gives?
In the US CBS worked for over a decade to lose their image as the Geritol Network. It could be that Televisa is trying to lose its rep as the Fairy Tale Romance Network. But this takes time.

TV Guide's website has TVA at 2 hours on Monday the 15th (the latest date for which they currently have listings). My sympathies to the recap team; I know how tough this is.
Thanks Vivi and Urban for your explanations and feedback. It really helps put the pieces together. Sometimes this story moves in such a way I don't understand all of it. I'm glad you all are here to help.
Loved SantMarc snatching Lorenzo away from Ana Lucia. I’m so tired of Lorenzo harassing Ana Lucia when he never-ever got one iota of encouragement.
I’m still not believing Marcelo was this ruthless guy. Ramiro remembers him only as a good guy. Maybe Evaristo planted bad stuff in SantMarc's memories. He only pulled out a gun after Soledad pulled out a knife.
This TN isn’t very poetic, but Evaristo had a great line that his enfermedad is old age, or something like that. Very moving in Spanish.
Abuela looks pained whenever Ana Leticia demands those earrings. Deep down she knows the girl ain’t right in the head.
Yep, ITA that Viridiana wants to help Ana Laura “fly,” as she told Mariano. She’s got a boutique so this clothes makeover seems like a natural move to me.
Ana Laura knows Ramiro’s plan and doesn’t want Valentín, but she seemed to go off the deep end when Ana Leticia told her Tin Tin is revenging the old fiancé Ramiro had. Sure hope I read this wrong and that she stays on Team Ramiro. Let these two be happy together for at least two days. I want to see what Ana Laura is like when she's not a simpering fool for Ana Leticia.
So Iñaki and his brother have an unknown half-brother who’s a fraidy-cat snob and Ana Leticia’s past lover? I didn’t see that coming till said half-brother acted like such a jerk dissing Iñaki about the expensive car. I hope Iñaki doesn’t go evil to get with Ana Leticia. I’ve like him ever since he started bumming car rides from Ramiro.

To an earlier comment, there is no real significance to the birth order of these three girls. That only matters in a royal family and in cultures that practice primogeniture. Ana Leticia would have no more right to anything than either of the others for being the oldest by even a nanosecond.
Now if I were Ernestina I would have a cubic zirconia copy made of those earrings and put the real ones in a safe deposit box. Give the fake pair to AnaMeMeMe and be done with it.

UA, I like the way you think! Fake earring seem appropo with someone who is so good at being a raging fake herself.
I LOVE makeovers. I think Llora dresses nicely for the most part, but she does favor the softer tones and keeps makeup and hair very simple and understated. I certainly don't want her in AnaLe type makeup, but maybe a new do and brighter colors would give her a more cheery and positive attitude. That said, AnaLe will go off the deep end of her sis even remotely looks more than the meek little underling. Oh wait...she already is off the deep end.

It looks like they changed their mind on that since the numbers aren't at all what they were expecting. I'm guessing it'll be one season after the other with no pause. I say this because the "first season" is supposed to be only 65 episodes and if I'm not mistaken, we're already nearing episode 60 and the 2hr long ride keeps going past that. But I don't want to confirm anything, we know Uni changes their mind easily lately.

Just want to say, "thank you, thank you, thank you" to the recappers for Tres Veces Ana. I stumbled across "Caray, Caray..." when I was desperately searching for English subtitles. Your recaps are even better! I was getting the "gist" of the story, from the few Spanish words I know and the actions of the characters, but no details. Now, I know how much I was missing.
Growing up in a farming community in Ohio during the '50's and '60's you might imagine I didn't have the opportunity to select Spanish as a second language. Oh, how I wish I could have! It would have been useful on many occasions. Guess how many times I have had to use "French" in the past 50 years!
I am hooked on this telenova! I am also hooked on Rulli and Boyer-have been since "Teresa." Did I say I am hooked on Rulli? (I am old-not dead, as the saying goes...)
My day revolves around the next episode...I putter around until 9:00PM then my dogs and I settle in. (I can do that at my age, plus being retired.)
Again-I do appreciate the people who are taking so much time and effort to recap each episode.

Ladies, I haven't had a chance to read your comments. I have out-of-town family & a dinner to get ready for. Thank you for being patient w/ me. Definitely need to work on condensing my recaps better. It's easier w/ a 1 hour, but I wasn't sure how to cut down the 2 hour. It felt like every scene was an important convo for the development of the story. Hope you guys have a good night. I'll be back to fix this further b/c I'm not sure about the length. Thank you to all the other recappers, I give you sooooo much credit. This is a huge load to take on. And thanks to the commenters for keeping everything light, fun, & interactive. Yay Caray, Caray!
Welcome Virginia!!! Yep, there are several of us "old, but not dead" ladies here so please pull up a hair and join us on the "patio". (And yeah, I'll join you in the fineness of Rulli as well.)
Appreciate the scheduling update Jon. So I did see the previews of a new show at 10:00. Rather surprised to see another crime/drug lord/gang story after the darkness of Yago and they buried that one even though it was well acted and written. I am a bit interested in checking out Contigo as it has Ela Velden who I just loved in Muchacha. Want to see how she handles a leading role.
So no Ana break, just rolling on. Hmmmmm.

Amazing job, Anna! There was a LOT to cover these two episodes, so not too long at all. And of course you had to give those Santi-AnaLu kisses their due by reporting on them fully. ;-)
Welcome, Virginia! So glad to see so many new folks joining in the conversation.

Coming on here late today, didn't get a chance earlier.
Thanks, Anna - this was great! These double episodes are tough indeed, but sounds like we'll have to push on till the 19th. In such great company as we have on here, we can definitely do it! Thanks for the info, Jon.
Welcome, Virginia! So glad to have you and please come on over often to chat with us!
Vivi, split personality thing was bugging me too yesterday, but I gotta say I enjoyed Santi finally resolving some things.
Anon 207, it was very strange the lawyer was not too surprised. But I also wondered why Ramiro took him there, as opposed to asking Rodrigo for a name right away, without knowing what help Marcelo gave to this guy in his previous life and what info he might have on him. He knew the dude was Mariano's friend!

Finally caught up with the comments!
Just want to comment on the whole amnesiac gone dissociative-identity disorder. It's very possible. Dissociative identity is different from multiple-personality disorder. There's more than 1 identity in conflict, and it can come about when a person is traumatized, especially a recovering amnesiac that is recovering an identity that is long forgotten.
Chana being on the payroll made her seem less skilled in tarot reading, considering that everyone she's given readings to she already has some knowledgeable background on.
I think Ana Lucia is the oldest, and Ana Laura is the baby. This would make Ana Leticia the middle-child, which totally works for her character lol.
I believe that Marcelo was a bad-ass, not necessarily a bad guy. He was tough, smart, and could get the job done. But I don't think he was a killer, however I do believe that when push came to shove he did whatever it took to protect himself & the ones he loves. And that's what we're seeing.
The lawyer was surprised, but they seemed to cut out a scene & go straight to the part where he's all caught up on what's happened. The same w/ Leonora meeting him. Besides, lawyers are typically pragmatic & good at keeping their emo in check.
Welcome Virginia, fellow Ohioan! And welcome to the other new faces--er, I mean screennames: Anon207, Floodgate, and Jon!! I laughed at the "Meh" comment of Sedillo (lawyer).
