Vino el Amor #66; Wednesday February 1, 2017: Mark goes to Jail; DisGrace called to Spain
Labels: vino
Mr Robles finally got to use those muscles you girls are always salivating over. And I must say, pretty impressive. Grungy Mark looked like one of those gag rubber chickens when Dave unloaded a sledgehammer punch on him. Now we are getting somewhere. That just shows you how messed up and delusional Grungy Dirty Boy really is. Even your average drunk in a bar wouldn't take a chance on Dave's landing one, cause it is a two hit fight. He hits you, you hit the ground. What better way to look like a hillbilly doofus. Mark ya look sweet in orange. Sleep on your back.
I was so glad Mark tried to get up so he could be beat down twice.
Graciela was able to shake off the interception for 6 and right back throwing deep.
Lots of effort and time invested in creating the perfect storm to separate Miguel and Luciana, again confirming Miguel is the galan.
I almost want to feel bad for Carito but until she stops listening and speaking to Perla I can't.
WHOO HOO!!!
Later!
"The kids leave and arrogant DisGracie tells her mother, “See how easy it is to manipulate these children? And just like that, I’m going to be able to get David too.” Whoa, not so fast sister! I am relieved (although a bit surprised Graciela will be spirited away to Spain. Goodbye. Good riddance. It would be nearly impossible for David and Luci to move forward with her hanging around. Fer, the other obstacle seems to have calmed down a bit so maybe this story can move forward. No spoiler, but Fer's wrath will soon become apparent again once (and if) David earnestly starts pursuing Luci.
"ass-whuppin' is right Lila! :) And as you pointed out Kirby, Mark was completely delusional to think he was going survive one good punch by David. Out "gunned" for sure.
tofie, I must admit I did feel for Carito last night. She wants to leave and she should do so. I am also afraid for her safety. It was nice that Leon and Miguel were there for her, and Luci certainly showed her big heart by offering friendship that Carito certainly did not deserve.
Luci may be standing around waffling indecisively about her two "men", but I sense little grass is going to grow under Erica's feet. She seems like a woman who knows her mind and goes about getting what she wants. Again, when Miguel and Luci get into it, I just don't care for him. But I like him with everyone else.
Juan has no choice but to get Mark bounced from jail. They are now bound together and if one falls, both do. Can't wait for that to happen.
Thanks Cynthia!

I am so sick of the 'my kids' mantra from David. The 800 pound Gorilla in the room is that DisGrace is your Sister-IN-Law dude. If Lilith and DG are your "Family" you would do well to try to sneak into Mexico.
That was an interesting little observation from Carita to Perla when she Perla maintained that NoJuan's love for her would cause him to protect her and Carito said "Are you that sure,because I am not."
Which can't be said for Gracie's "art." Her stuff is so bland I wonder that she doesn't try to sell it in bulk to the Murats' hotel chain in Cancun.
Now that I've slung some kitty litter at her, I will agree that her Faaaaaaamily cry is totally out of line. It will come back to bite her on the arse when David eventually finds out that she killed Lisa. However, we all know that is a long way off.
It was definitely satisfying to see Mark get his first real beatdown followed by him discovering that Orange is the New Black. Once he's out I hope somebody keeps track of whether he attends those anger management classes. We know he won't.
More later.
Mark and NoJuan now have a stinky little problem. I am sure NoJuan will sneak in a tiny bit of succinic acid and spray Mark. He will instantly turn into that little Dr. Pepper Sweet guy and squeeze between the bars and away they go.
I'm surprised Luci has not been spotted zooming into town like the Flying Nun.to catch Miggy and Erotika.
One more thing, Mark and NoJuan always speak in Spanglish, right? Why would that be?
They think it sounds cool? Wrong.
Maybe one of them does not speak Spanish? Possibility.
We know NoJuan's English and Spanish are very good. That leaves Mark by deduction. With me?
Then please 'splain to me why his English accent is so bad?
"Aw Baibee ewe luke gud tonisht." Yeah Susan grab him before he gets away. What were you thinking?
Later Gator
Nobody told her, Diana, Sonia is still looking for Bobby. In her world there appears to be a lot more places to look. :-)
please
Perla won't be either although I have doubts that Juan would protect her from him. She would be better off going back to Mexico with Carito.
Kirby..That might be true about a PFA order.I think that the person I know who received one got it at his place of employment. However, why wouldn't Marked have been served that way? Did he get it through the mail? Carrier pigeon? telegram? Pony EXpress?
Like everyone else, watching Dave go all beast mode on Marked was gratifying. Instead of acting all macho, Marked would have been much wiser to have said to Dave what Hubba's umpire friend used to say when a player came at him.."Hit me once, and I've got your car. Knock me down, and I have your house." It worked.
So now Marked has vowed to Juan to help him bring down mean Dave . Just what Dave needs, one more person out to get him and his stuff.
I know that I am supposed to relate to\feel sorry for \cheer on Luci, but I don't and I won't. Marta is always busy cooking, pulling weeds , etc.while Luci whines on and on to her. Geez, get a job or a hobby. What exactly is her job, and when exact!Y does she do it? In the middle of the night when everyone is sleeping and nobody is around to listen to her many problems?
Blows me away she laments David may be in love with Graciela and Erika is pursuing Miguel in one run on sentence.
Susanlynn: I enjoyed David kicking OJ Mark's expletive. The abuser threatening & grabbing Susan as we've seen how domestic violence is being exploited in previous TN's such as "Pasion y Poder".
UA: Susan should move to the Philippines & stay there!
Kirby: Gutierrez is so desperate to become County Sheriff, he'll continue to side with Lillian if necessary to begin a political career.
But tell me one thing: I need to know if you have forgotten what you felt for me when you have been with Miguel. Because I can’t forget….” Luciana says, “It’s best that you say nothing because there is nothing we can do to change or fix things.”
Ironic that Miguel got made when Luciana said he and León should've told David about Ingrid because the whole thing could've gotten the patrón into trouble. That's the exact same thing Miguel said to León when he found out about Ingrid.
Yay, Mark in an orange jumpsuit behind bars where he belongs. Juan is a fool to try to get him released. Mark will be his doom.
Erika's papa doesn't seem to be any good at the vineyard business. How is it he doesn't know how to get workers and has to poach from David? Maybe his late wife was the brains in the business.
And poor Carito, I hope she gets back to Mexico in one piece. Oh and where is that much-vaunted cousin of hers? I haven't forgotten about him.
Kirby, that made me laugh out loud. She already crossed the toaster oven off her list early on, but I'm sure in a house of that size, there are plenty of hobbit holes and even smaller spaces for her to look! :)

Looks like Miguel is about to experience one door closing and another opening. He's been getting his hackles up at David for so long, let him go on over to Santa Barbara and give David some REAL competition with something that matters. He also sees the writing on the wall and sees where Luci's heart is better than she does. There's a whole new world waiting for him at Santa Barbara and Erick is just waiting to welcome him into it. I hope he goes and they re-focus the story on the dueling vineyards, send DisGracie to Spain and let's get some lovin' goin'!
I have a little questionare I used to use, which saves a lot of time down the road.
If we could apply it to her we should be able to see how this is going to go for Miggyboy
Let's see:
1. Are you in any kind of therapy? (includes ____ Anonymous, group or individual psychotherapy, counseling, etc.)
2. Do you own an automobile which runs?
3. Are you legally married? (includes planning to leave him, separated, don’t like him anymore, `already screwing around so why does it matter?’, etc.)
4. Is there still a man in your life who makes you do otherwise unexplainable, crazy things?
5. How many jobs have you held in the past six months?
6. Which elective surgeries, if any have you had?
7. Does your own mother remember your true hair color?
8. Do you have any female friends?
9. Was your previous significant other employed?
10. How many tattoos do you have and where are they located?
11. If you have ever heard the word monogamous, please describe in your own words what it means. Hint: is not a type of wood…………
Here are my answers : no..Yes..Yes..Yes..One..Wisdom teeth..Yes..Yes..Yes..None..There can be on!Y one.
I thought Gracie's exhibit was in San Francisco. Or she had to 'San Francisco' while Joselo was in SF. It seems to be in Spain? Anyhow, the excuse is that Gracie has to travel to pick up the payment for her paintings in person. Never heard of automatic deposit or Pay(the)Pal, Joselo? But I'm with anything that gets her out of Bodega Los Angeles, nowhere near Los Angeles.
So Lil may be stepping up her game. Without Gracie to oversee, will she take it out on Marta, Sonia, Luciana, Bobby, Brian, Adolfo, David, Juan, Perla, geesh the list could go on and on.
Maybe the reason this did so well in Mexico is that it gave the tn-watching audience there some insight into life on a vineyard in U.S. If anything, it should want to make them come in droves, seeing as how the workers hardly do any work. The guys move boxes of wine bottles around, sweat and the women bring them water, cook and clean for them--along with an occasional murder and a fiesta.
Tofie--You nailed it. I truly believe your statement is the premise the writers started with. It's on a great big story board they look at every day, to make sure they stay within those parameters. "The only thing Luciana has contributed is inspire David to open the drapes and play soccer with Bobby. Rest of the time was spent whining about how to hold two men and dry humping Miguel until Erika showed up and she got mad at him." Maybe we could throw in Long, longing looks.
Sonia for Davey
Davey for Luciana
Fernanda for Tano
Carito for Miguel
Miguel for Luciana
Marta for Brian
Perla for Juan (puke)
Might give Erika half an LLL for Miguel but she's a bit more cerebral than lustful
You know, if she made that kind of haul in the non-time she spent on it, just hire a David stunt double and spend the time she is chasing the real thing--- painting. With practice, the double, in the dark, could do a yeomanlike job.
But to be fair, Luci seems to move the whole wine world with a deceptively minimum-looking effort herself.
I think the San Fran exhibit note got erased off the writers whiteboard in the writers lounge and so we never heard about it again. It is suspiciously coincident with the time San Francisco became a verb rather than a noun.
1.) FerBrat keeping multiple cut-out pictures of Tano is very disturbing. These 2 are obviously going to be endgame.
2.) Cesar & Susan: IF & a big IF Susan doesn't get killed off the TN.
3.) Carito & Peter.
4.) Leon & maybe Ingrid (if she doesn't get whacked by Juan, Mark or Perla)
5.) Ramon & Marta: I just feel that he's going to be the knight & shining armor.
I also think that Sonia and Leon should stay together. She will cook like a chef for him and Leon certainly complement her quirky personality. Susan should end up with Cesar. He is a good guy who will treat her well and when she finally realizes that he is a wonderful man, it will be a match made in heaven.
As for Juan and Perla, they will probably end up in prison or something. Well, maybe not Perla, I can see her turning over evidence to prove that Juan was criminally involved with illegal human trafficking, sabotaging the wine, etc...Lilian will tell David that Juan was cheating him out and Juan will offer up his story that DisGrace killed Lisa. At least I hope that's the way it happens. We sure can't have David marrying the woman who murdered his wife!
Your other scenarios sound reasonable except I can't see Perla ever breathing a word against Juan. I'm afraid Mark could end up hurting her, real bad.
Goin towards Lucy. Mig was never hers
To loose. But perla wants to keep that lie Going to Controll her. She'll deserve that asswhippin.
I hope they're about to put Lucy and Davy together, we've been waiting 3,4
Mouths? Do something before spring.
I wouldn't be surprised if Miguel quit
And went to work for Ericka.
Thank you, Cynthia Hampton good recap.
Since Joselo made a point of insisting that Graciela had to come to Europe to get the proceeds from the sale of her art (I can kind of overlook the apparent geographical lapse by thinking that perhaps some Eurotrash who had crashed her exhibit in SF bought all her work, but once again the show doesn't even give us a crumb to hang that on), I'm wondering if this is dramatic tit for tat for her getting to jet off with David to Argentina. Now Gracie's off to Spain, leaving David alone in the vicinity of her rival...who coincidentally is sortakinda on the outs with her man. And since we're nearly halfway through this fakakta show, and haven't had a real David/Luci moment in weeks, we're kind of massively overdue here. (On top of, and correct me if I'm wrong here, the novela cliche that the heroine usually gets to sleep with her true love once before things implode even worse than usual.)
