Caray, Caray!

Bella_Ep 20 Uno

First, which of the Rico and Lazaro fellows are enunchs?

One eyed Atanea, aka Bella, is at the mayor's office. She is wearing a snazzy little choker, which makes her look about a foot taller than Horacio. She tells him she is tired of being an escort and is returning to New York since she had another client who offered her money for sex…she’s tired of it.

JP and Simon interrogating A&T again. Andres tells Tobias whose head just got smashed on the table not to worry, they can’t do anything to them and Tobias shouldn’t remain quiet.

Bel tells Horacio that she needs to be in Luuurve and that could be a long way off. Hor asks her to give it time.

A&T are now beginning to be concerned for their safety, as JP and Sim are on their ASS every day.
They are thinking of going back to their homes where they can be safe…and alive.

Ric tells Eman that JP and Sim are investigating Mireya's death and there is reason to believe Hor is involved. He also mentions that Hor is implicated in the death of the Julian and the disappearance of the professor and his students. There is enough incriminating evidence that the investigation is now headed by the attorney general.

Bel is having dinner with Hor and talking about leaving, and she is trying to get him to tell her his secrets. Maybe just ONE that nobody else knows. Nice try hoochie.

Mike and Pene have gotten Bel a new 'hearing aid'. Then JP calls and Bel gets alllllll excited, and Pene teases her. Girl Time.................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

JP tells Bel that they are beginning to investigate Horacio, which makes Bel hoppy,... as a rabbit.

Horacio is talking to Ric who tells him one of his agents may have some evidence against him. One of Horacio's men's behavior was funny when they questioned him and it sure looks suspicious. Ric, do you have any money? Good, go buy a clue.

Andres want to know what the plan is and Hor tells him they need to lay low till the smoke clears.

Bel talks with JP about Emi working with Eman.

Bel and JP are um..visiting, and they are in the bedroom now, well, Bela may not be as hoppy as JP thought. Some high quality smooching though. I hopeo JP got to see more of her than we did. Bella wonders if he will stay the night.
Hrmpfff. Ball’s in your court Bel.

Horacio is talking with A&T and Horacio asks them why they didn't tell him that JP& Simon were investigating them, as Ric caught him off guard.

Horacio asks them if they would have talked if they had been offered witness protection.
Of course puppy dog Andres swears they would never ever under any circumstances rat the boss out, (and hopes he remembered to erase the witness protection number from his phone)
 

Parte Dos

JP stands on a paint bucket and tells Bel how much he cares for her, and she can then look UP at him with her doe eyes in adoration as he asks her to officially unofficially be his girlfriend. Bel tells him they are moving too fast…this will be her first time. JP is wagging his tail, but wants to wait for a special moment too.

Horacio and A&T again and he tells them that he is powerful enough to protect them, and there is no evidence that can harm him. He could let them go to jail, but he will not. They are safe with him.

Bel and Pene talk about JP, WHAT ELSE? Pene wonders if Bel will tell him the truth and Bel thinks she can't or he will drop her like the Hot Potatoe she is..

JP has to rush home and tell his BFF that he didn't get any and Bel has to rush home and tell her BFF Pene she didn't give it up, but she wanted to. Can't they just put it on FaceBoink?

Hor invites Bel to a party. A beast party we wonder? Bel plants a big ole smoocher she had left over from JP right on Horacio's lips, then leaves to get some Listerine.

Does Horacio ever wonder what happened to that girl who wanted a job?

Yuppers, beast party, nonetheless. Horacio wants to show her that he is serious about her, she is a goddess. He wants her to meet some of his powerful friends.

Ruh Roh, BBB is there, doesn't Bel work for her, supposedly? Horacio muses aloud that they must know each other, but they obvio don't but Madame has so many girls she doesn't know them all, so Bel dodged a nuclear bomb there. And Bel tells Horacio she is no longer working there anyway. Her stage name is Atanea, (not the insurance company).

JP gets home and tells Pickle and Emi he is going out with Bel. They verify he really is CoCoo for Cocoa Puffs. Emi wonders who is actually crazier, as Bel is going out with her Father's murderer's Son. Emi DOES have a future it looks like..

Beast party in full swing. Bel looks to be mentally putting red circles around some faces and red X's.
Horace is acting like a Jr High boy in heat. Horacio is going to meet privately with the beasts and leaves Bel alone to snoop around so she uses the time to remember her dead Father to put herself in the mood.

She picks a locked door and gets into an unused bedroom and turns on her listening device. She has planted a bug on Horacio it seems and listens in on his “private” meeting with the other beasts.

The beasts are concerned about Horacio being investigated, but Horacio tells them they actually have no evidence. Horace wants to do something against the one who is investigating him, JP, but the Senator mentions the dead student and the missing professor and students…they know exactly how Hor handles his problems. Hor insists that they need to get rid of the agent who happens to be…JP, the son of one of their deceased associates.



 

Wow, Kirby, great recap and the sides are even better...thanks!!

Just some quick comments...”one-eyed Bella” OMG, how can she or anyone who sees her stand that hair over her eye. That would drive me crazy...so distracting!

I like that pick in the heel move...just call her Bond...Atanea Bond...

More tomorrow....zzzzzzzzz
 

Definitely a Gurl happy episode. No Rapes Robberies, shooting stabbing, beating or burning, the only thing cringeworthy was when she kissed Horacio right on the lips, I had to spit into the garbage can on that one.

And plenty of Te Amo and kissing, hugging, giggling and luuuurving looks, I waited for Bambi to saunter out of the hedges.

So Bela and Horacio are just dating now as she meets his 'Friends'. They should just rename this "The Odd Couple". How Loooong is this going to drag on?

The high point was the Beastie Bash, as Bela looked around. I halfway expected her to suddenly have 'Terminator Vision' with a range finder and target overlay in what she was seeing as she mentally compared the real life faces to the faces in THE VIDEO.

Of note to me was the trendy looking black floor length dress Bela wore to the Beastie Bash. As she went up the stairs we saw how classy she looked going into the den of beasts. Then when we got a front view we see that there is a generous sized thigh gap viewing panel removed in front! Woof.
 

Fantastic Kirby. And I will agree that it was "definitely a Gurl hapy episode". A brief respite from the violence was sorely needed.

"Pene wonders if Bel will tell him the truth and Bel thinks she can't or he will drop her like the Hot Potatoe she is" and "Her stage name is Atanea, (not the insurance company)" were great but "Pickle" had me chuckling.

Rgv Chick, yes, I loved the pick in the stiletto too! Smooth move. (OT, I hope all had a restful, uneventful night there)...

"A beast party we wonder?" Yes. But I was surprised Bella said she worked for the Blonde. A lie easily discovered. BBB is many things but stupid is not one of them.

I am amazed Bella has Horacio acting like a lovesick adolescent - that slurp she gave him gave me shivers. Of disgust.

I can't imagine how she felt, surrounded by all those who took her father from her.

I'm still annoyed Mike and Pene are hanging around, doing nothing. Of course there are no students to mentor in their gym so time must be hanging heavily for them.

Enough is enough. Get rid of this guy and move on. I'm sort of looking forward to Bella vs. BBB. And Bella vs. Emi.

"And plenty of Te Amo and kissing, hugging, giggling and luuuurving looks, I waited for Bambi to saunter out of the hedges". I wouldn't have minded :)

What a beautiful avatar Kirby. You rock. Totally. Thank you.

Diana
 

Good morning Kirby. Love the picture, love the recap, no horrid violence this time. Yay. And oh yeah...this made me laugh:

. Ric, do you have any money? Good, go buy a clue.

Pure, vintage Kirby. Thanks amigo! Can't watch, but can't stay away from the best Patio ever.
 

Thanks, Kirby.

Entertaining episode but it is time for Horacio to go.
 

Thanks, Kirby. "Pickle" - too funny. I had to look away a lot cause I can't stand when Horacio paws Bella. And he even got a smooch? Eeeoooh glad I missed it. But Bella was so cute telling JP that the facility wasn't exactly conducive to her having a boyfriend and he'd be her first. JP was even cuter gushing the news to Simon.



 

Kirby: You know full well that JP will NOT get killed off.

The Beasts want to exterminate JP eh ?
 

Thank you, Kirby.

Yes, it sounded like JP may be in danger. And Bela knows it. (Similar position JP was with her father.) No doubt Bela will do anything to save JP. Just imagining that she would lose JP the same way she lost her father, and at the hands of the same people, is so scary to her. And if it were to happen, it would be unbearable.
 

Good Morning, Patio! Thanks again, Kirby! Diana has already mentioned to snarky favs, so I'll just ditto her. I also like the reference to the doe eyes and Bambi, Esmer does have the those eyes that will captivate an audience. And I agree about the dress....quite classy and when I saw the front, even I was like WOW! Now if she's just get that hair out of her eye; but then she goofed once when she pulled it back, so she may be cautious about it now.

Diana, "I am amazed Bella has Horacio acting like a lovesick adolescent - that slurp she gave him gave me shivers. Of disgust." Definitely disgusting! I liked the way Bella was telling Pene that just thinking about the odor of Hor's mouth makes her want to puke. Pene can't imagine having sex with a man like him; she'd just rather kill him....and we wish they would...kill him before he kills again. Jarifa is right...time for him to go.

Lucio, "Just imagining that she would lose JP the same way she lost her father, and at the hands of the same people, is so scary to her. And if it were to happen, it would be unbearable." ITA, I'm sure Bella will make sure he is dead before he does anything against JP.

Just thinking, we still have 60 more episodes to go; so it's going to take a loooong time before Bela gets to all the beasts. These brief respites, as Diana calls them, do give us a break from the violence and grim events. It makes for a good story.


 

Kirby, thank you for another great retelling.

Hmmmm...I do not see Horrid Not as the type of guy to take no for an answer and respect the words ",Wait..slow down...not ready yet." As for the kiss that Bella bestowed on that toad..yuck.😫 When I was teen, there was a saying if someone had a foul mouth ",Hey, do you kiss your mother with THAT mouth?,"


and JP is all abuzz that he will be Bella's first... Very Harequin romance novel.
 

Oh and all is well and quiet at the Chick farm :-)

Kirby, beautiful...egret?? against that awesome blue sky!
 

Not...????...no...that was supposed to Hor...sorry...tablet and I are wrest!ing again.

P.s. Another beautiful day here..sunny, clear, 80,...but it will hit 90 later.
 

RGV good call, yes Egret.

YIKES ! How many babes do we know who have killed more fellows than they have slept with?

I'll pass. Give me a nice boring chick from the 'Returns' bin.
 

Diablo appears to be learning your most lethal moves and is trying out some new holds of his own.
 

Chickie, anymore pics of your visitor? Perhaps , he or she has moved on.
 

Kirby, yes, cheaptablet and I are old adversaries. I pin Diablo. Then , he pins me.#vedetta


The dance Bella is doing with Hor reminds me of the villains in the Bond movies. Instead of just killing Bond , they go on and on about the Byzantine ways they are going to kill him. Yackety yack.
 

Kirby, thanks much!

Very nice to have an episode that is not cringe worthy, and an excellent retelling.

Kirby,

OT: assuming you are seriously asking, there are two eunuchs, Aspenaz and Ebede-Meleque, in El Rico y Lázaro.

For a complete list of the cast, with names and clickable pictures, see
http://entretenimento.r7.com/o-rico-e-lazaro/fichas/conheca-os-personagens-da-novela-o-rico-e-lazaro-31082017#!/fichas/1

in Portuguese, but Google Translate seems to do a good job.

Both eunuchs are "good" guys as opposed to some quite evil characters in the TN. But never mind them, Princess Shamiran (Gabriela Moreyra) is more than reason enough to watch the show. She elicits not just a woof, but some howling at the moon!

andy
 

Susy, no more pics since the time I told you that my visitor preferred fresh-off-the-tree chickens. It seems like it completely ignored the trap ->->->->->->->->->->->->

That night I did take a shot at it; so I may have scared it off for now. I've done that before, though; and it comes back after a few days.

"The dance Bella is doing with Hor reminds me of the villains in the Bond movies." EXACTLY!!
 

OT for a nonexistant patio:
Thanks Andy. I think I had already spotted them. Is Princess Shamiran the evil Blonde who some fellow was 'helping her "bathe" in the river' one time?
 

OT:
Kirby, no, the evil blonde is Sammu-Ramat (Christine Fernandes​) the sacerdotisa, the high priestess of Ishtar. She works in the palace and is in love with the soldier she was bathing with. He was married to one of the king's daughters, but Sammu-Ramat suffocated her with a pillow so it looked like she just died of natural causes. Bad girl!

But I'm not as enamored of blondes as I think you are. Shamiran is brunette, slightly dark (her father in the TN is black), almond eyes accentuated by make-up. And hot!

:-)

andy
 

Oh the one who Samurai Rat stepped on her cape on the steps. Thanks

I hope we don't get yelled at for discussing a non patio TN.

:-)
 

Yeah, Samurai Rat :-)
is now trying to do in Shamiran's unborn child. Samurai Rat is very definitely a bad one, though earlier in the TN we were shown why.

And, yeah, we should drop this topic.

Andy
 

Former Caray recapper Mauricio is covering Vuelo on his blog.

http://el-parcero.blogspot.com
 

So, now that you brought it up, I have to ask.

"the evil blonde is Sammu-Ramat (Christine Fernandes​) the sacerdotisa, the high priestess of Ishtar". So Andy, was she the one who put the spell on the brunette with the fire in the last few minutes last night? Strange voodoo.

Ack.

Diana
 

AAAACCCKKKKK!!! J/k Kirby, Andy and Diana :- D

Thanks for the info, Anon 2:49
 

Diana, be very wary of watching the last few minutes of a show preceding your TN, you can get sucked in. That's what happened to me a couple of months ago :-)

And to answer your question, yes, that was the priestess Sammu-Ramat (or Samurai Rat as Kirby calls her :-)
doing some nasty voodoo against poor Princess Shamiran.

Andy
 

Fun recap kirby. And no blood spillage
Yaaaaah!

Pickle and Emo. Pickle had me laughin.
When is she not pickled?

Kirby bell left to get some more listerine, she should have gotten some
Peroxide too, ain't no tellin where his mouth been. Yucko!
Was that a 5 inche heel she took that
Pick out of?
So jp is her first? Hurry up and wrap
Up the case jp is ready for Xmas morn.
This was good recap.Which means there
Will blood spillage later.

Thanks kirby.
 

Pickle and Emi.
 

Andy and kirby, I read your Biblical recap, am I a!lowed to talk about The Bold and the Beautiful ( a guy just had a baby with his estranged wife and now his ex fiancee is pregnant) and Outlander (,Jamie and Claire have been shipwrecked and washed up in the co!onies) now? No matter where or when, it is always about sex, right?
 

Hi can someone tell me how you find the recaps for La Bella y Las Bestias? I thought I had it figured out but now I can't find the recap for 7/9, or was there one?

Thanks
 

OK so I just stumbled across the recap for 7/9 with all of the comments ... was all of this here this morning? Just wondering is there a consistent way to find the recaps for Bella but maybe you just keep clicking on the Bella link each time ...

I really appreciate the recaps I'm using the novellas to learn spanish ... thanks

 

Hugo, recaps are posted in the comments only. Yes, you can click on the Bella link at the bottom of each posting. We only post twice a week. We do Mon-Wed on one page and Thursday-Friday on another page. Each posting has the respective dates that include recaps...as best as we can write them :-)
 

Thank you Anon for the imfo for Mauricio's "veulo blog". That is a really good tn. Now I know what they are saying. Im also learning Spanish by watching tns,and havin fun with it.
 

Thank you Anon for the imfo for Mauricio's "veulo blog". That is a really good tn. Now I know what they are saying. Im also learning Spanish by watching tns,and havin fun with it.
 

Susy I think the rule here is there are no rules, except just be nice. :-)

That yelling at people and rules for the sake of the rule makers is for the ...wait for it....


BIRDS.
 

What on earth are you referring to, Kirby?
 

So Hugo, the way it is right now, the, say, Monday post will start with the Monday night recap followed by a bunch of comments, then suddenly the Tuesday recap is tacked on followed by comments, etc. Wednesday...until a new Post is put up for Thursday.

We are kind of the Renegades with no goofy rules and no self proclaimed psychologists.
And though we go on and on about these shows and the characters, not one of us believes that what we are seeing is for real. IE: we are different.

I hope you enjoy our little patio here and maybe learn something along the way.

Kirby
 

Kirby, Who are all these criticisms for? Or do you have to invent stuff to keep up your "renegade" image.
 

Susanlynn, thank you!

No matter where or when, it is always about sex, right?

Absolutely right! It's not often that I know the answer to a question, so I appreciate your asking!
:-)

Episode 21, Part 1: Horrid Horacio Makes It to Haedes

The beasts are still discussing Horace’s request. The ladies vote ‘no’ and two of the men vote ‘yes.’ The senator votes ‘no’ because he knows Hor was involved in the murders of Mireya and the students. Hor is upset because it’s a split vote; and there needs to be a decision made. Horace asks them to think about the consequences if he lands in jail. After Cristina points out that he’s talking about a federal agent; Hor threatens that the association is like dominos…if he falls, they all fall. The Madame then changes her mind and votes yes; so Hor states that JP’s death is a done deal.

After the meeting, Bella comes out and Horacio tells her that he is not going to leave her alone for a second anymore. Bello wants to go home and she wants to go on her own, but Hor insists that he’ll take her home.

Bella tells Mike and Pene about the meeting and how these people are like exterminators; they see everyone as if they are roaches and they can exterminate them whenever they want. Mike wants to do away with Hor already, but Bella insists that they need to wait because there are still crimes that Hor committed; and they need to get evidence. Pene warns Bella that Hor will probably not just be satisfied will killing JP; he will want to kill her too. Bella wants Hor to dare to try it.

JP and Emi talk about her working with Eman since he led the investigation against their father and how he is seeing Bella. JP doesn’t have a problem with Bella because she was not responsible for their father‘s death.

Mike makes an anonymous call to JP telling him that his days are counted.

Horace orders Andres and Tobias to kill JP and he doesn’t care if they kill Simon while they’re at it.

JP and Bella are kissy-kissy. JP tells her that he’ll have more time with her now. He notices that he’s she’s looking at him strangely; so he knows something is wrong. Bella just wants to know that nothing is going to happen to him.

Bella goes to Horace‘s house. Doris let’s her in since Bella told her that she wants to surprise Hor. Bella snoops around until she finds the safe. She miraculously knows the combination…and opens it. Meanwhile Dori calls Hor and tells him that Bella is there.

JP storms into Hor’s office and tells him he knows about all his crap…he knows that he and his associates had Enrique Leon and his wife killed. When Hor threatens to have JP taken out, JP tells him to kill him right then and there...if he has the cajones to do it.

Bella confides in Doris that Hor offered her money for sex. She wants to know if he has offered Doris the same. Doris denies it, but then she changes her mind. She starts to tell Bella about the night Hor raped her, but then A&T come in. They want to take Bella to the study but when Bella resists, they try to force her to go. BIG mistake!! Bella kicks butt…both of them. Afterwards, Bella tells Doris to go with her; she will help her.

Bella confides in Doris that she is one that wants to do justice. She tells Doris that she thinks Horace killed the maid that work there before Doris did. Doris doesn’t want Hor to kill her. Bella urges Doris to tell her if Hor hurt her; that is the only way she can help her. Doris confides in Bella and tells her that it’s not fair or right that powerful men like Hor abuse women that are defenseless, like her.

Bella calls Pene and tells her she wants more information on the student that was killed…and all those associated with the crime. Later, Bella talks to the little girl that was involved in Julian’s murder. The girl tells her that she and her mother were threatened…they had to do what they were told to do. It was mainly four guys that were leading the group. Bella then asks the little girl if she knows where she can find the four guys.
 

Episode 21, Part 2: Horrid Horacio Makes It to Haedes

Horace and Madame BBB are talking. She tells him that Bella never worked for her. Hor can’t believe it. Madame compares him to Castor who died because he was hot after a woman. She thinks Hor is the same because he’s hot for Atanea; so she tells him to stop being so horny. As they leave, A&T approach. Hor can’t believe that Bella left A&T the way she did…all beat up. Madame tells Hor that that just goes to show that he should be more careful as to whom he chooses to be with. Andres points out that the same thing happened to Castor. After they wonder if Atanea is working with JP, Horace tells them to take care of JP; and he will take care of Atanea.

Mike goes to a park where the four goons are. After Mike mentions that he knows what they do, he offers them a job. Pene does her own undercover job with the bus driver who took Mau and his students. She tells him that if he doesn’t cooperate; he could go to jail.

JP and Simon question the mother and daughter who were involved in Julian‘s death. The lady is scared and embarrassed; so the little girl tells them that they were approached and told that if they didn’t say what they needed to say; they would be hurt.

A&T are at the airport and about to skip town when JP and Simon and some other agents surround them and take them in.

The bus driver takes Pene to the site where Mau and the students “disappeared.” He tells Pene that she will find nothing ther…They were paid so that no evidence would be left. She looks around and finds something…I couldn’t see what it was…

Hor enters his house as he thinks about a conversation he just had with Atanea. He apologized for what happened with A&T, but Bella tells him that after what happened there is no future between them. As he remembers how they finally agreed to meet in 2 hours, Hor goes to his safe, gets his gun, and puts it in his pants. He better be careful or he may just get an extra butthole. Horace then calls Andres and leaves a voicemail asking where the heck they are. He looks for Doris and can’t find her either; so he goes to her bedroom. When he pulls back the cover on the bed, Bella leaps out (she forgot to say peek-a-boo) and grabs his gun…hopefully it’s not dirty…eewwww! She tells him who she really is…the daughter of the agent that he and his associates had killed. As she tells him about the video.,.she holds the gun to his mouth…peanut butter, Hor?

JP questions A&T. They need to tell him about Horacio...if they don’t cooperate, they’ll soon be jail bait and making lots of prisoners happy. Simon then comes and tells JP something about seeing a girl near the highway where the students and Mau disappeared.

Bella is leading Hor down the stairs, but he manages to get loose. After Bella beats him up a bit, Hor runs away…he’s skeered. He gets into his car, but it won’t turn on…jingle, jingle…Bella has the keys. Meanwhile, a mob approaches…so that is what Mike was doing! Hor tries to get out when he sees the mob, but Bella keeps him from getting out. Bella finally lets him out, so Hor runs into his house with the mob on his tail. Meanwhile, Bella cleans her prints off the car keys and leaves them on the table. The mob catches up to Hor near the pool and starts beating him…eventually dunking his bloody head in the water and then pushing his body into the pool.

 

Episode 21, Part 3: Horrid Horacio Makes It to Haedes

Later, JP and the feds are there investigating and pulling the body out of the water.

Days later…

Mike is doing some exercise with the girls; he has them with their hands tied and they have to get loose on their own Bella succeeds quite quickly, but Pennie cries as she struggles.

Simon gives JP the statement that the bus driver gave regarding the students’ disappearance; so that closes the case. JP wonders who the woman was who had the bus driver take her to the site; he thinks it was Bella. Simon wonders what Bella has to do with this case.

Mike praises Bella for not leaving any clues at Hor’s house; so Bella thanks him for all that he taught her. After Bella tells Mike that the MADAME BBB is the next target, Pene finally gets loose.

Rick announces to the public that they have solved the murders of Mireya, the professor and all the students. The master mind was Horacio. He then announces that JP and Simon were the ones that headed the investigation.

Bella is with Eman and questions him about Emi working with him. He tells her that he just plain forgot to tell her about it. Bella then tells him that JP is a good person; he has good values…and she is in luuurve with JP.

Outside, JP gives a speech about how they all need to band together and elect the proper officials.

Eman tells Bella that she’s an adult; so if she wants to be with JP, that’s her decision. It doesn’t bother him…he just wishes for the best. Yeah, right!

Bella is at the cemetery talking to her parents again. She thought she would never open up her heart, but with JP it’s different. He makes her very happy, but she fears that she is also vulnerable. Though she does like to be with JP, she is not going to stop killing each of the other beasts. As she listens to the video, JP walks up behind her…BUUUURNED…he always knew she had the video…

 

NiNa...we’re gonna see how Bella goes after BBB reeeaal soon!
 

Thank you RGV...Peanut Butter? Too funny. When Pene kicked the rock away where the bus driver had taken her there looked to be just an iron bar. I am not certain it is crucial What is was as much that there was Something there, proving that she found the place.

I liked the scene also where Bela had the gun on Hor and he said something like she had an advantage as he only had a butcher knife (the size of a friggin machette). So she slid the gun away from her and took him on bare hands to him with a knife, and BEAT him like a rented mule.

So was anybody hiding and not looking when Hor finally got back a tenth of what he had dished out? I felt like I just saw my team make a touchdown.

Thanks Again
kj
 

Kirby, it would be funny if Bella & team would come up with a little “touchdown” dance :-D

I thought that how Bella and team planned the hit was so befitting!
 

Thanks, Rgv Chick.

I am so glad finally Horacio is gone and it is on to La Madame.
 

"I thought that how Bella and team planned the hit was so befitting!"

AND, as far as I could tell, Bela and team are at least trying cover their tracks, because as far as Law Enforcement is concerned, what Bela is doing is 'their job' and they would go after Bela no matter what her (good) reasons are. OR how successful she is and how UN sucksessful they are NOT.

I don't even want to entertain an episode where JP has to choose between his immense Luuuurve for some Bela, or his Oath when he was presented his badge.

What's up with Pene? She looked unhappy through much of the episode and they made it a point to show Bel 'escaping' Mike's tie-up in seconds to Pene's minutes.

RGV maybe they could have their endzone celebration in the batcave when a photo is retired from the "Red Zone" on her hits board. Touchdown dance is a stroke of genius.
 

When he pulls back the cover on the bed, Bella leaps out (she forgot to say peek-a-boo) and grabs his gun…hopefully it’s not dirty…eewwwww.

Rgv Chick, I'm amazed that you can write about these violent events with such playful humor. Speaks to your skill as a writer and to a very necessary detachment so you can give an accurate report. I tend to get overcome with emotion, just reading about it. No way could I watch it. But still...happy to see justice done. Evildoers do need to be eliminated. I just don't have the guts to do it or even watch other people doing it.

Thanks for keeping our great Patio going while waiting for another season of Mi Marido....

Have a hot, sticky day everybody! We had a brief rain yesterday which seemed to cool off our Heat Dome for a while. But when my husband and I took a walk, turns out after 30 minutes we were heat-wasted again. Stay cool!
 

Rgv Chick, thank you for yet another stellar outing.

"Hor runs away…he’s skeered" had me smiling away as did "She miraculously knows the combination…and opens it". He never would have shared that info with her, how on earth did she know it?? What did she remove from the safe? Whatever it was, Horacio did not seem to notice anything missing when he retrieved his gun.

"Mike is doing some exercise with the girls; he has them with their hands tied and they have to get loose on their own Bella succeeds quite quickly, but Pennie cries as she struggles". Kirby, I was totally surprised (and none too happy) at this. Penne has been a strong warrior. Now, she can't get out of a bind (so to speak) and is teary eyed as well? Not liking where this is going.

Some of the events were confusing. I finally realized Pene's driver was the man who put the gas on in the van killing everyone. But how did Pene get to that spot and what exactly she found eluded me.

I was impressed Bella womanhandled all of the thugs so effectively last night. I wish we'd actually seen Bella jumping out of the bed! I was a bit surprised she was having a leisurely lunch with Doris after she beat up A&T, but who am I to quibble??

So will any of the beasts take up the quest to eliminate JP??

The only misstep Bella made was telling Eman about her love for JP. Does she really have no inkling?

Fantastic Rgv Chick. Hope all are safe and accounted for this morning??

Diana
 

Kirby: Is it safe to say the angry mob whacked Horacio ?

RVG Chick: I'm looking forward to seeing Isabella going after the Evil Blonde.
 

Thank you, Rgv Chick.

It was about time for Horacio to go. Was it luck, skills, preparation, intelligence, miracle, but things could not go better for Bela's team. Doris decided to talk, the girl decided to talk, Penny somehow found the van driver and he took her to the crime scene after a simple bluff. The gang needed only a small fee to go and kill the MAYOR.

JP keeps sneaking up on Bela. Like this time from around the corner. One of those times Bela will not recognize him quickly enough.
 

Thanks, Rgv Chick. Terrific job. Loved your description of what sounds like everybody's favorite scene: He looks for Doris and can’t find her either; so he goes to her bedroom. When he pulls back the cover on the bed, Bella leaps out (she forgot to say peek-a-boo)... Diana, ITA it would've been even better if the camera had shown Bella jumping out of the bed -- what in the world was the director thinking to leave that out?

Still the beanie moments keep coming. Mike makes an anonymous call to JP telling him that his days are counted but gives no specifics, but JP figures out it's Horacio and visits him to counter-threat.

After Doris saw Bella give both A & T a beatdown, she should be asking her for training.

Ding dong, Horacio is finally finally gone. But honestly the angry mob that killed him is just as horrible as the angry mob, incited by Horacio's goons, that killed innocent Julian. People who would let their savage anger run free and in the heat of the moment gang up on someone to kill them -- without charges, weighing evidence, and a trial -- scare the hell out of me. So sad that Bella is dealing with a system and a country that is so corrupt that this was the only way to stop Horacio.

I hope Pene's sadness isn't foreshadowing. Pene will be the one going undercover with the Madame, right? Maybe this will help her get her groove back.
 

Yes Steve, it looked to be the same mob or at least the same STICKS and BATS used on Julian the kid earlier.

Niecie: "After Doris saw Bella give both A & T a beatdown, she should be asking her for training." I guess she figured it wouldn't apply nine tenths of the time as a maid.

I want to see BIG Mikey in actual action. All he has done so far is be Bela's sparring partner, and the team strategist. He has these huge muscles, and the circus freak starter kit tattoos, which, except in Bela's cases, seem to be a prerequisite for serious ass beating. Like, watch some of those juvenile fighting shows sometimes.

Bela just has that innocuous little butterfly on her rigcage, but it seems to work pretty well. Ask Andy and Toby.

I am still wavering on Ric. I want to assume he is on the up and up and is just bound by organization procedures, and caution. I sure hopeo so. And the most evil of all evil, Emanuel has been suspiciously quiet lately.
 

ribcage

Andy and Toby sure looked rough after Bela got through with them. It would have been so funny if Horace had looked them over and asked: "That little chick did this shit to you cowboys?"

And Bela could pick up some side work for Maybelline's new smudge proof line.
 

Niecie: I'm afraid Penelope is NOT long for this world soon!
 

"People who would let their savage anger run free and in the heat of the moment gang up on someone to kill them -- without charges, weighing evidence, and a trial -- scare the hell out of me".

Me too Niecie!

And until I read the recap, I had no idea what the young girl was being asked about. How terrible she and her mother started the fire in the mob that killed poor Julian.

I didn't realize Pene was going undercover for the Madame so thanks for explaining that. She better shape up, BBB is cunning and smart. Pene better be convincing or she's toast. I'm hoping to see a better wardrobe. And better hair.

I'm never happy to see such a frenzy but I'm relieved Horacio is dead. He won't be able to harm anyone else.

The eagle (and fish) have (almost) landed. What a shot!

Diana
 

Chickie, thank you for this recap! Yeah, Horrid Horacio Makes It to Haedes! It certainly took long enough, didn't it?

Some of these meetings of las Bestias make me laugh. Madame BBB was funny last night, acting the feminist and getting annoyed with a couple of the guys, "I'm not your Madame", and going on about how Colombian guys are always looking to do violence. Then changing her vote to keep peace in the Bestia family!

These meetings are very odd, sometimes funny, and they remind me a little of old B movies and boys' comic books that had similar Evil Associations, which usually plotted world domination at the meetings, though the meetings were held via video link using desk microphones and huge TV monitors. No cell phones back then :-)

Anyway, taking down Madame BBB will hopefully be more fun and involve a lot of good looking women. But they better pretty-up Penélope if they want her to be a high priced escort.

I agree that Bela leaping out of bed was fun, and very well done. It wasn't shown in more detail because it is not phyically possible to do without having learned the technique of rapid levitation in Tibet or being in a Hong Kong Kung Fu movie. Well, maybe Superman could have done it.

:-)

:-)

andy
 

Andy, BTW are we still woofing BBB ? Up close last night with those big bushy eyebrows I thought for a minute we were seeing Hor in drag. I think Iike the scrawny brunette better. And Pene a LOT better.
It will be interesting to see Madame BBB's stable.

OT someday I want you to 'splain to me that episode a week ago with the fast growing tree and the electrical storm.

A bird's gotta eat...................
 

Diana: I simply took the picture, but the darn Eagle does has some real talent.
 

Wow...striking photo. Glad I'm not a wee creature. Wouldn't stand a chance.
 

The bird is a 'Fish Eagle' better known as an Osprey. It is a tad smaller than a Baldie, and is the only bird I have seen besides the Hummingbird, which hovers in flight. It will circle over water looking for a fish and when it sees a potential meal it stops in mid air and just hovers up there flapping away until it decides to dive, then folds it's wings and plunges into the water feet first and emerges with a fish.

Here is the same bird after an unsuccessful dive, sitting up there drying his feathers.
 

I see where the Pene actress was in Yago but I'm stumped. Anybody remember what her character did in Yago? Must've been a small part.
 

Kirby, I agree that BBB is less impressive up close. Still...

Penélope I see as a poor waif I would want to help and protect, not as a desirable woman. Maybe she will come into her own in this part of the show. She could start by fixing her hair.

:-)

OT: the tree, etc., was a dream or nightmare that foretells the King's downfall if he doesn't change his evil ways. They are getting a bit mystical on us with this, but it is a Biblical, so...

:-)

andy
 

Kirby, I see the difference in the second shot. Yes, he has talent but he isn't the only one! :)

"Madame BBB was funny last night, acting the feminist and getting annoyed with a couple of the guys, "I'm not your Madame" had me smiling. Gloria Steinhem would certainly be proud :). She's tough and has brains. If only she'd used them for good. I wonder if any additional acts of violence will surface regarding her past. Not that anyone deserves to be murdered but Horacio was a monster. I wonder what blood BBB has on her hands.

Niecie, I didn't see Yago so can't help there.

Diana
 

Good Day, All! Finally made it here after all the chores and errands, but I see everyone is one their toes and chatting away...great comments!! All is quiet at the farm :-)

Kirby, "What's up with Pene?" I've been wondering that for a while. She seems to have turned into a wishy washy little crybaby...very different from the tough, chip-on-her-shoulder chick who beat up her stepfather and set him up to hang himself. Niecie, "I hope Pene's sadness isn't foreshadowing." and Diana, "Not liking where this is going." I sure hope not and I don't either! When I first read the description of the show, it said that Pene would be Bella's BFF and ally; she is both, but not a very strong ally...at least not any more.

Niecie, "Pene will be the one going undercover with the Madame, right?" I'm not so sure about that. So far, Bella is the one who is doing the heaviest and most dangerous parts of the mission. She'll probably come up with some other disguise which will unexplainably make her unrecognizable to La Madame.

Kirby, "I don't even want to entertain an episode where JP has to choose between his immense Luuuurve for some Bela, or his Oath when he was presented his badge." I'm hopeoing that never happens, but I'm sure it will, at least to some degree. The only thing going for Bella is that she is covering her tracks really well and there will be no "evidence" against her...yet, will JP be able to look the other way even if he "knows" she is behind everything??

JudyB, "Speaks ... to a very necessary detachment so you can give an accurate report." That's exactly what it is. If I dwell on what is actually happening and let it get to me, then I wouldn't be able to write about it. Humor cures all...or at least an attempt at it :-)

Diana, "The only misstep Bella made was telling Eman about her love for JP. Does she really have no inkling?" That was bothersome to see. I'm just afraid of what Eman will do to separate them.

Lucio, "JP keeps sneaking up on Bela...One of those times Bela will not recognize him quickly enough." I keep wondering how JP is able to find Bella so quickly. I also wonder why he coincidentally was not wanting to be with her on the night of the party.

Niecie, "People who would let their savage anger run free and in the heat of the moment gang up on someone to kill them -- without charges, weighing evidence, and a trial -- scare the hell out of me." I concur! So are they not going to look for these guys and charge them? Ric told the public that the case was closed!! Just because they found the mastermind, they aren't going to follow up on the persons that actually did the killing??? That's TOTALLY messed up!

Kirby, "I want to see BIG Mikey in actual action...He has these huge muscles.." Ooohh, I want to see him too! and I don't care what he's doing ...just show me the muscle ^-^ And, "I am still wavering on Ric." Me too...I think he's just as wishy washy as Pene.

Andy, Maybe Madame BBB is just plain undecisive or Bipolar. That switch she made was a little too fast.

Kirby, nice pic, thanks!







 

" Ooohh, I want to see him too! and I don't care what he's doing ...just show me the muscle ^-^"

Eight bad guys if you count Castor's henchies as just the two which I remember getting shot. Nine if you count stoooopid Maria who was preggers by Beast Master Eman. Maybe she is not actually one of the bad ones, just abysmally stupid.

Thanks Steve
 

Short term memory problems--Who were the two ambulance people working on Norman??
 

Oh Steve, add the tadpole...Castor’s son, Junior.
 

Castor’s Henchies...are those the ones that were killed when the Marines raided the ranch?

Nina: I found it ironic that Horacio was going to get Mussolini'd (see the violent way the controversial Italian Dictator & his mistress got killed).


 

Oh maria, she was pretty stupid wasn't she? Why was she so histerical? You could put her with the stupid number of people that got killed steve, there is castor's tadpole, norman, even the castor himself.

Wow, Impressive Steve. I can't remember the ambulance people either, and I suspect it was more than two henchies when the Marines landed at CoolyCan, but this list is close enough.


Yeah. Only room for one gun.
 

There will be room for two if its put in the front and it goes off. Lol.
That's probably not funny to the guys,
But yall are a lot smarter than these
dipsticks.
 

Lots of comments!!!
Is it starting out good!!!

Does it seem good to try to give it a go?
 

I meant worth watching??


 

Bela_Ep_22

JP sneaks up on Bela in the cemetery as she watches the video she does not have and so JP now knows she will, and has, mislead him. He Luuurves her so it is not a real lie, right? Why didn't she turn in the video to the authorities? Same ol’ reason…no justice in the country.

But she has been lying for years? JP is not too hoppy. And she is NOT NO NOT giving him the video back. JP suspects she had something to do with the death of Hor. “She didn't kill him.” according to her. Well, that is clinically true

Eman has brought sushi for lunch for himself and Emi-devil. Who dressed her? If you're going around the office with your bra showing shouldn't it match? Nevermind. Magenta swatch of hair too? They talk about JP and Bella, and assume it will eventually come to a head that 'Your Pa Killed my Pa.”

A lot of back and forth about the video between Bela and JP and he, in essence, does not believe her. And she does not trust him, so there. He asks her to promise that she will not go after the beasts or put herself in danger. Bella promises that she will not kill anyone with her own hands. JP and Bela had their first fight about the video. Careful, JP this shit could be deadly.

Pene and Mike working on figuring out how to get to BBB. She has had 20 plastic surgeries, is a rich business woman and it will be hard to get to her. She is attractive, single, and smart. Mike thinks maybe the weak link is the receptionist. Pene thinks after the Horacio and Castor mess she will be more guarded than usual. Bela tells them that she promised the Union steward...er..um her Luuurve, JP that her actual hands would not kill anybody. What were you thinking? I may bail on you Bela.
As Bela, Mike, and Pene are working on the BBB project, Bella thinks about how lust killed Castor, greed killed Horacio, and they may be able to use BBB’s vanity against her.

BBB stands for Bitch Bitch Bitch. She treats the help horribly. Throws boiling hot tea on the maid because she implied BBB was no longer a spring chicken. Why bother, there are mirrors every---where. She deserves to die. She tells her driver /ManHo /Omar to get new numbers and business cards as Atanea was able to intercept their communications and the Horacio thing has compromised them. And keep your ManHo ass out of MY special chair.

Mike calls and gets the BBB receptionist but she hangs up.

JP and Simon talk about how Pene found the bodies, but can not put it together exactly how Bela was involved.

So Bel calls BBB reception and gets a little farther, but not much, asking if they have any openings.

Mike and Pene staking out BBB house as she leaves. Her cigarette was crooked when the water maid gave it to her. Oh Noes.

M& P follow her to work. She appears to own a Nissan dealership. Magno Motors in English. She is dressing down her people. Sales are down and that is unacceptable. Heads rolled and BBB wants their resignation letters…no way will she give them severance pay. Her sales manager, Israel, is the first one to get yelled at; she wants his resignation letter too.

As things look now, if Bela and friends make it possible, almost anyone who knows this bitch would gladly kill her.
 

2

So BIG Mike goes in and is looking at a car as BBB is talking to her sales manager. As she leaves Manho offers her her red cape, but she doesn't want it right now. BBB fires almost the whole staff at her dealership, being a royal bitch. Making them resign rather than be fired so she does not have to pay severance, so Bela is going to go apply. As BBB will never ever in a million years recognize her from the Beastie Bash. Shucks, hardly anybody even noticed her, remember?

At home Bela, Mike, and Pene are discussing what they have seen so far. Bela is getting dressed to go see JP as Pene swirls around giggling. She smells a bath coming.

JP and Simon are talking about all the loose ends in the murder of Hor and the suicide of Pene's step-on Father and Simon wonders how all these people keep turning up on Steve's list. Simon notes that there sure are a lot of loose ends still flailing around. Like the same mob who killed Julian is the one who killed the one who paid them to do it, Horacio. Simon plans to go to Pueblo to look into the supposed suicide of Penelope's stepfather.


Em & Em are at the casino. She is in heaven, and winning loads of money…acting like the little Ho she is. Later, she has cashed in her chips and has a BIG check. Eman is being sooo sweet. She won 3 months pay and then Eman tries to kiss her, and she thinks maybe he is cornfuzing things.

Awww JP has flowers and Bela shows up in her Dominatrix outfit. JP, you will be beat and enjoy it. Champagne and the whole works. Making up is sooo good after a little fight. JP wonders if Bela is still mad at him, and is disappointed that she does not trust him. Bela promises JP she will not kill anyone, (else, with her bare hands, before 10AM, on Thursdays).

BBB gives the maid something for her face for the mark she left when she threw the hot tea at her. And called her sister??? WooHoo. Her name is Leonor, and is BBB’s half-sister.

JP is giving Bela a bath. FF FF FF Bella tries to get info on which beast JP will investigate. JP tells her he’ll decide when they close Hor’s case. Bella is muy impactada.

Eman and Emi still at the casino and Emi is not cool with the kiss attempt and walks out on Eman and tells him if he hired her to bed her he is sooo wrong, and BTW she quit.

A vigorously bathed Bela is back at home with M&P, walking normally. Her new persona will be a 'Maritza Lopez', forty years old. She is planning on getting the job at BBB's Magno Motors.

There is a big line at Magno Motors for the interviews. Bella, aka Maritza, refuses to stand in line because she is sooo experienced compared to the peons who are applying and interviews and BBB is impressed. Bela leaves, but BBB sends ManHo after her so she will not get away, after looking over her resumé.
 

Kirby, you are on fire this week! Great recap and those sides are burning up the patio!

Just a quick observation of another “miraculous coincidence” or beanie moment. Simon is going to go investigate the suicide in Puebla because it happened 5 days after Bella, Pene and Mike arrived in Mexico. He doesn’t know that the man is Pene’s stepfather...yet; so why would he suspect that B&P had anything to do with it. Was that the only suicide or crime that happened in the whole country???

Andy, you were looking forward to seeing Pene all dolled up...were you wagging your tail with that short red dress she had on?

Victoria, this show is well worth watching, IMO. Esmeralda Pimentel is knocking it out of the park with her performance, and despite the numerous beanie moments, the storyline is quite impressive and interesting... it hasn’t disappointed us yet!
 

Welcome to the patio, Victoria! Most definitely worth watching, IMO. There is some violence, but it’s not graphic or gory. More info later...
 

Thanks you guys for the thumbs up.
It will be fun reading Kirby's caps. I haven't read the recaps yet but will catch up shortly. Although, watching will make me feel terribly old seeing my old University (La Universidad de las Américas as backdrop).

 

Thanks, Kirby.

To ask Bela not to take the law into her own hands and not to kill the bestias is to deny her essence. Also, the new “strategy” could end up being more dangerous for her. JP has a lot to learn.

Emília was finally right about something: yes! Emanuel is old enough to be her father.
 

Outstanding Kirby.

"Why bother, there are mirrors every---where" and "her driver /ManHo /Omar" were great but " As things look now, if Bela and friends make it possible, almost anyone who knows this bitch would gladly kill her" was my fav.

I wondered yesterday what blonde baddie could do to join the inhuman ranks of Castro and Horacio. We didn’t have to wait long did we? I gasped when she threw that hot tea at her maid/half sister. Now I’m wondering if she caused the poor woman’s disfigurement. Purely painful.

“As BBB will never ever in a million years recognize her from the Beastie Bash”. That was my beanie moment of the night. How could anyone blessed with the gift of sight not recognize those luminous eyes? Or eye in this case due to the curtain of hair.

“Simon plans to go to Pueblo to look into the supposed suicide of Penelope's stepfather”. Yes, of course. Because there aren’t enough crimes and murders to investigate here. And thanks Rgv Chick – I didn’t understand he doesn’t know he was Pene’s step so this makes even less sense.

And ITA, Esmerelda is amazing.

Eman looked particularly cringe worthy last night. He makes my skin crawl. And Emi’s look of disbelief at the kiss had me rolling my eyes. Not as bright as I thought. Her lavender tank top had no front or back. I didn’t realize she was even wearing a bra until it was clearly visible in the back. Interesting outfit choice.

Bella – forty? No way…

“To ask Bela not to take the law into her own hands and not to kill the bestias is to deny her essence”. Well said Jarifa.

Excellent avatar.

Nice to "see" you again Victoria!

Thanks Kirby! Fantastic.

Diana
 

Kirby, how wide is the actual wingspan??

Diana
 

Good Morning everyone and thank you all. Hello Victoria, nice of you to stop in.

These writers and actors surely know what makes us tick hateful wise.
Just when we have finally gotten rid of Mr. Despicable himself our focus turns to the first runner up in hate, Ms Cristina/Madame/BigBadBlonde.

Hoo Man what a wench ! It is not hard to see how she and Horacio got along so well. To be hateful and mean because of greed or something is one thing, but just because you can is even worse to me.

Emilia... HUH? Her skirts have always left little to the imagination, but to wear a cumberbun as a top to work? Then she is so indignant at the casino as to quit her new JOB? Huh? Eman financed her very profitable adventure in the casino, and she gladly accepted. She dresses and acts like a hooker, and when Eman-pig attempts to collect on the services he thinks he has paid for she trots off in a huff?

In a non bizzaro world she would waste NO time telling all her girlfriends---zero--- and Mom Pickle--who would not remember the next day, and her Brother JP--which could unleash WWIII, about the casino incident. Tell somebody, anybody who might begin to get a clue that there is another side to Mr. Emanuel the Wonderful.

Like Emilia's Brother's Girlfriend Isabela Leon who still appears to have no clue that her Godfather got the family maid preggers and had her killed and was instrumental in her (Bela's) Father's murder.

I hopeo that when that string of truths comes to light Bela has officially recanted her promise to JP about no personal killings or at the least they are in one of their required breakups so prior promises can be temporarily broken.

You know, like when you are broken up over the weekend because you bought a motorcycle and she sleeps with a bartender but it wasn't like really cheating because you were broken up that DAY.? Or vice versa? OK

If BBB has a thriving whorehouse going with so many 'employees/sex slaves' that she does not even know who they are, why are the sales figures at the Nissan dealership fire worthy ? If sales are off a little but they are still selling cars, who cares? Most businesses like that have incentives built in to encourage the sales and management staff to do their best as money is always a more effective motivator than some subhuman BBB in see through clothing.
 

Kirby: You're right about Blondie Bitch. Everyone getting chewed out would be happy to kill her ass.

I cringed when she threw hot coffee at the maid, whose face is deformed.

Victoria: I'll be looking forward seeing Emilia getting whacked by Emanuel.
 

OT Diana..They are around 5 to 6 feet, about on average a foot less than a bald Eagle.
Their wingspan is in the Baldie ballpark, but the Eagle is a much heavier, stronger bigger bodied bird.

IE: I have seen more than one case where an Eagle will simply decide to take over an Osprey nest at the beginning of nesting season.
As the Osprey returns to his nest he finds it already occupied by a larger more fierce EAGLE.
Note that these birds only use a nest during mating--nesting season and it is unoccupied the remainder of the year.

kj
 

Steve, what do you think Emanuel will do about Emilia now that she has quit her job working for him in a huff?
With good reason.
 

Good Morning, Patio Peeps!

Bella is such a smart, sly chick...so careful with her wording when she talks to JP. JP asked her if she was involved in Hor's death and she responds, "I didn't kill him" which as Kirby already pointed out is technically true. Then JP asks her to promise not to go after the beasts and not put herself in danger; and she responds with, "I will not use my own hands to do justice." Smart girl! If she used her feet, she'd still be keeping her promise :-)

jarifa, "Emília was finally right about something: yes!" I was really surprised at her reaction. Kirby, "She dresses and acts like a hooker, and when Eman-pig attempts to collect on the services he thinks he has paid for she trots off in a huff?" well stated...I expected her to reciprocate, but she got some points for quitting her job...let's see how long that lasts!

Diana, you are so spot on...it only took seconds to see what made BBB such an evil person...worthy of being on the best hit list. I am really looking forward to her demise. Considering that she threw that hot tea on Leanor's face, maybe she could "slip" into a boiling pot of oil.

There are so many beanie moments, I think I'll start keeping a list. I just knew Bella was going to come up with a disguise and not be recognized. How blind are these people? I didn't see anything that would make her look forty. She didn't even bother to wear a dress with a longer hemline.

Kirby, remarkable avatar!

BBB...
#bigbadblonde
#bitchbitchbitch
#badbitchybeast
 

Thanks Kirby. I do think ospreys are great in and of themselves and am trying not to think of them as "lesser eagles".

I don't think Em is going to do a damn thing about Emi because I'm sure Emi will turn up at work the next day. As you noted, she will likely keep her adventures in gambling quiet. At work, I don't think she'll say much but there may be a possible lifting of an eyebrow.

Emi doesn't know what Em wants from her. Frankly, nor do I.

Diana
 

It was a tough choice Rgv Chick, but my vote is for #badbitchybeast.

I suspect I am going to loathe her more than any other beast.

Diana
 

Thanks, Kirby. Great quip about the long line of folks who'd kill La Madame.

Mike and Pene's reaction to Bella's new disguise had me fooled. I figured she was doing a Mrs. Doubtfire. But nope, there's Bella in a super short dress, school marm center hair part, and huge glasses (to better see her sparkling eyes), claiming to be 40. Okay.

Yay, Emi turns down Eman. So far Emi's has had good taste in a boyfriend; JP and Simon's police comrade who got killed on their first mission was a good guy. And fought off the slimey "friend" who tried to rape her when she was high. I've been nearing Emi's table, rooting for her ever since she stopped selling drugs. She's a pain, but she's got a brain. As I tried to explain to a male coworker friend a while back who thought a coworker's provocative dress automatically meant it was open season on hitting on her, just because a woman dresses provocatively doesn't mean she's dressing that way personally for "you."

Nice to see Pene dolled up.
 

And Emi fought off...

 

About Emi: Yes she gained some points from me too, and to be honest I have always luuuurved for girls to go around looking like she does.

Note..she got that check for as she said 'Three months salary' so if she is like most millenials, that means she need not look for work for two months, three weeks and a few days.

And a little nougat of wisdom for all you fellows: When women come to work dressed to the nines, sorry to tell you fellows, but it is not for you. It typically is to torment the other women at work.
 

Oh, and RGV I vote for #3, BadBitchyBeast. Funny how a name can take on a life of it's own sometimes.
I believe we as a patio enjoy naming people and things. I know I do. Remember Dr. Parrot? That was fun.
 

We'll find out soon enough.
 

Univision:

"La Piloto" Season 2 will debut Sunday, July 29th!
 

Kirby, ya, Dr. Parrot was fun..and watching him treat his owner...good actress, bad character! Too bad the Tn wasn't quite that fun
 

OT- Oh, BTW, here's Tory. She is Callie's sister that I named Tori because she tore into my had when I first tried to carry her, Doesn't she look like the sweetest thing? ->->->->->->->->->->->->

So the newest Bela alter ego is Maritza, who is 40ish. The arithmetic says we first saw Bela about the time she was 18 or a little less and she resurfaced after five years in the orphanage, making her twenty-three or fourish.

Without real stage makeup which works for a camera but not across a desk, how is she being 40? Beanie?

And not to find fault, but sometimes higher level positions allow checking references, or sometimes even contact with a former or soon to be former employer. Not all job changes are acrimonious, and many times the employer you are leaving is happy to give your next place a recommendation. If you are smart you will arrange it that way.
 

Thank you, Kirby.

We have seen how Madame treats her half-brother (Omar) and sister (maid.) And her legitimate employees. Imagine how she treats her "employees" in the escort business and I am sure in the not so legal wing of it. I think in a few episodes we will think of Horacio as a sweet old coot compared to her.
 

Ohhh Lucio, Omar is a half brother? I missed that thank you. That Half-way explains why he has not already killed her.
You are right thus far about her.
 

Kirby, thanks for an excellent recrap.

A lot of tacky women's clothing last night. "40-ish" Bela was the best looking of the bunch. BBB should fire the whole wardrobe crew and throw things at them.

Chickie, Penélope looked a lot better this time out, but the dress actually annoyed me. It reminded me of all the short, tight dresses that I have seen some young women wear. And not be comfortable with...
I have watched as they realize that the dress is riding up a bit and reach down to tug the hem back down a bit... and then realize that they are perhaps showing a little more up top than they are comfortable with, and tug the dress back up a bit. And then realize that the skirt is riding waaay up...

This could go on all day. And when it did I got very little done of what I was supposed to be doing. All their fault.

Hmmm, half-brother and sister, ehh? BBB looks to be what? In her 50s. Maybe even 60s after the TWENTY plastic surgeries? Leanor and Omar look much younger; could they actually be her children and she is so vain that she doesn’t want to admit that she has children that old? Now that would make her even more kill-worthy!
 

Andy I didn't realize it was Pene at first and was really really enjoying it until it clunked on me that it was Pene and then I felt like I was mistakenly looking at my sister at the beach or something.

She did rock the little red dress. Do they have to pay her extra to look like a girl ? Esme had no problem with Dilly Dalia looking almost hot in Ramoon. Go figure.

That dress tug of war can be the best. And if they have to raise their hand above their head it is almost pornographic.
 

I suppose the big news we have not talked about last night was Bela and JP in the tub together.
That had to be more than a PSA about water conservation.

They both went on and on about waiting for the right time, etc. etc, blah blah. So how long did they wait, nine hours? What a sacrifice.

Oooooooo, RGV. What if they actually are? They would still be (possibly half) siblings as they are now. But to treat your own children that way, then like Lucio said, "Move over Horacio, you are no longer the most vile organism on Earth." This one leaves you in her dust.
 

Well, I only was able to tune in to the last ten minutes of this episode. What struck me was that HUGE mural on the wall of Madame (,?) And that she is a smoker.

Speaking of cosmetic surgery, Hub and I went to see "Book C!ub" yesterday, and none of those actresses seemed to have partaken in such surgery except Jane Fonda.
 

We can talk about all of Bela’s word parsing with JP but the real problem is that he does not want her to be who she is. I could see her and JP having more of a chance if most if not all of the bestias were already dead. What does he not get about the law not being effective?
 

You have some beautiful fur children Rgv Chick. Tory is a sweetheart.

And your notion that Omar and Leonor COULD be bbb's children is a distinct possibility. And very troubling. I hope that isn't the case. Shiver...

Lucio, ITA that Horacio might indeed be even less vile than BBB. Frightening.

Niecie, I agree Emi has made good choices in men and cheered her successfully thwarting those who had bad intentions.

But the drug dealing really bothered me. I don't think she's had an epiphany. I think she would love to get rid of Balla. Not sure how far she'd go.

Andy, Pene was clearly uncomfortable in the dress. I don't understand why they had her go there when Bella was expected to waltz in and snag the job (which it appears she has). A back up? And what was the woman in line ahead of her jibbering about?

"We can talk about all of Bela’s word parsing with JP but the real problem is that he does not want her to be who she is". Touche Jarifa...

"Dilly Dalia" - good one Kirby!

PSA...Save water; shower (bathe) with a friend.
 

Those s.h.o.r.t. Tighty tight skirts \dresses should have attached shorts underneath like the skorts that girls and women can buy. They look like something could be revealed, but...ha ha...everything is covered !
 

Hah! No need to watch the episodes...I can "tune in" here, be royally entertained by the conversations and get to see great pictures of wee cats, woodpeckers and various wildlife. Works for me.

These short tight dresses that fit like scotch tape (but alas don't stay in place like tape does) make it very tough on the gals wearing them. And don't even think about sitting down! Or trying to get out of a low-slung sports car without showing all the good china.

But so it goes. Madame BBB sounds interesting.

Happy Thursday everybody.
 

Simon mentioned yesterday to Juan Pablo that the suicide man was Penelope's stepfather.
 

JudyB..."showing all the good china."

I have suspected for a long time that is the secret agenda nobody wants to admit.

 

Or trying to get out of a low-slung sports car without showing all the good china.

Um, NudyB, is this a "been there, done that" sort of thing? Just asking.

:-)

andy (ducking)
 

Hmmm....Judy , I think that you and I both are familiar with the mini dresses from back in the day. I look at old photos and wonder ...what I was thinking . #,seemedlikeagoodideaatthetime
 

Haha...no need to duck Andy. I have vivid memories of the late sixties, a dashing former Air Force captain, an Alpha Romeo, and doing my best to exit gracefully. My swain was not politically correct. As I recall he sighed that he used to be a boob man, but now he’d have to be a leg man. Oh the sacrifice!

And yes, Susanlynn, what were we thinking! ?

Totally off topic

Would anyone younger or more up to date than I am clue me in on why so many novela actors wear a red string bracelet and what does it signify??

I see them a great deal.
 

Kirby, youre absolutely lovely my dear
Absolutely lovely. I'd say you are very good at this, love it.

The make over over and over gueen is
Quite hilarious. Bitch queen is pist
Cuz nobody is buying cars, did it ever
Occur to this bleach blond that nobody
Needs a car right now. Theyre trying to save money so they can pay that hi
Gasoline bill.Or Is that only the U.S.
WITH 2,3,4.88 Dollars a gallon? Whatever,nobody wants your over priced
Cars. And her half sister must be hard
Up to take that crap off of her. She threw hot tea in her face, she has no where else to go, so she stays and takes that kind of crap off of her. Sad.
This woman is very vane. I remember this actress from a tn that was on telemundo earlier this year.She played
This narcissistic Psychopathic sociopath and she played it well. This
Part she's playing now is not far off
From that. She had how many surgeries
20? Is there anything else to tuck,cut
Out suck out,put in,reshape,or botox to death. This chickie really loves herself. I think it will b easy to get her, she's to busy watching herself &
Her business. Makin sure the money is comin in to pay for more plastic cuts.

Bella and jp having a fun bubble bath.
One of many I presume. Can't see m&m in a bubble bath. Not a good picture.

I like when she told jp she didn't kill horacio. Just the crowd that she
And mike & pene insighted did it. She didnt tell him that part tho.
That's like saying she didn't take milk from the cow, no she just drank the milk that the farmer took from the cow. She enjoyed the kill, she enjoyed the milk.

Kirby you're a blast. Thanks for the fun recap.
 

Nina: Bitch Queen is going to get her Karma BIGLY.
