Caray, Caray!

Hi, Cynthia! You were missed, but I hope we see you again with the next TN without a lot of bloodletting.

I just got in, and had forgotten to set the DVR to record the second hour of Bella and the Bloody Beasts.

Well, I did catch a little, and I might just get interested again since the eye candy seems to be increasing at a rapid pace. Poor Penny does not shine in comparison.

Oh, well.

:-)

Episode 33, Part 1: JP’s In, JessiBel is Out

Simon is looking at Jr. with all the popo and he wants all the docs for the animal. He then tells the men to search the house.

Bela is at Panties MX. She meets Ant, but Andrea tells her she will be dealing with her. Andrea tries to pull Bella away…she's jealous.

Ant is taking pics of everybody from his car, mostly the popo and Simon down to his shoes. He tells Andrea to stay calm…this is a man thing; so he’ll handle it. He asks who is in charge. Simon speaks up and tells him he needs a permit for the tiger and he wants to see it. Ant wants to know why the feds are involved with animal permits...while people are out there killing each other. Simon tells them that this is actually about the girls that are missing. Ant tells him he hired the girls as models and knows nothing else. If they want to talk about buying underwear he can meet with them in his office. If not, he will not talk unless they have an order.

In Columbia, Vero and Suzy are talking. Vero says that now she stayed with nothing. After her mom leaves to go work, Suzy says she wants to go to Mex anyway…even if she has to go alone.

JP and Simon after the 'raid'. Simon tells JP that the one that was having a fit was the girl. After JP thanks him, Simon asks what interest he has in Ant. He wants to know what the visit was about. JP tells him that he wants to show Ant that he still has pull with the feds. He mentions that he wants to infiltrate with the Colombiano.

Ant is blowing a gasket to Andrea who seems to be a bit more than just an employee. Andrea suggests that it was JP who was behind the fed visit. She still wants Ant to give JP a test. Ant then asks about the girl that came to interview; he likes her. Andrea thinks he likes her for his bed.

Pene and Bela with Bela primping. Bela tells Pene she wanted to kill Ant. He was with a girl, probably an assistant. Bela wants to wait to see if they call her. If they don’t, then Pene can go apply. Bela wonders how the girls came to Mex and now no one knows anything of them.

JP and Simon chatting at JP's Beast wall. JP confides in Simon that he is helping Bela on his own. He shares his plan for working as security. He suggests Simon can help. Then JP gets a call from Ant and puts him on speaker so Simon can hear. . Ant now knows he has pull with the feds. Ant doesn't want the feds to be bothering him with the missing girl issue since he has nothing to do with it. He just wants to help the girls get a better life. JP tells him he can help by keeping the feds away. Ant agrees and tells him he will see him at the factory.

Columbian girls—Vero doesn't like Suzy's idea of going to Mex. She prefers to stay there and wait till the phone rings, but Suzy wants to move forward with her plans. Vero is upset and reminds her that she gave up a job for her.
 

Episode 33, Part 2: JP’s In, JessiBel is Out

Ant and Andrea getting frisky. Ant tells Andrea that he knows how to test JP. JP will have to do something illegal...to the point that he could end up in jail. He has chosen the girl named Veronica to use for this test. Oh Noes!

JP and Bela with Eman and Emi now. JP tells Eman that he has a job offer. Eman asks Bela about her gym. They chitchat some more until Bela asks what they are celebrating so Eman tells them that he and Emi want to share some news. QTF? Going steady? Hopping? Has her job back? Buying her some boobs? What Eman, spit it out. JP, quite shocked, asks “Novios?” Bela thinks it's a bad joke. Emi says that love is normal. Eman tells them that is why Emi had quit because they were trying to avoid problems. After JP asks Emi why she hadn’t told him anything, Emi tells JP they are the first to know.

In Columbia, Suzy is looking at prices of air flights. Vero complains. She tells Suzy that she will be alone in Mex. For Vero, the most important thing is family, not a job.

At the dinner, Bela is still in shock. Eman wonders if it's because he is with a Quintero. Eman reminds her that she is with a Quintero too. JP is so upset that he doesn't even want to stay there. He walks away and Bela follows. When JP tells Bela that Eman is much older and they hardly know each other, Bela tells him that Emi is old enough to make her decisions. They can't do anything if they are in love. Back at the table, Eman says it is pitiful that JP reacted that way. Emi figures out now why Eman wanted to make the announcement in public. He knew how JP would react.

Bela thinks Eman is a great person he could be a good influence on Emi. JP won't go back to the table and tells Bela she can go and enjoy the evening. Bela goes back and tells Eman and Emi that JP went home to internalize everything. Eman tells her she doesn't have to justify JP. After Bela tells them she is not one to judge, Emi hopes that she can convince JP into that thinking. Bela wishes them happiness. Emi suggests a toast; so Eman toasts to love.

Columbia: Andrea calls Vero. They reconsidered and will hire both of them. Joy! Joy! Happy, happy!

Andrea calls "Jessica." Mike says she's not there; she can leave message. Andrea says it's important that Jessica get the message that same day.

JP and Pickle commiserating about Emi. No happiness here when Emi waltzes in. Pickle can't believe Emi has done this to her; she had her to go through the humiliation. She tells JP about having Emi set her up with Eman. Emi arrives and Pickle asks Emi what's up with that? Pickle says Eman could be her father. She demands that Emi break that relationship. Emi brings up that Pickle herself said that Eman would be a good catch; now she is saying the opposite. Pickle is still obsessing over her dinner with Eman and asks why Emi even bothered to set up the dinner. JP tells Emi that she WILL break up. Emi refuses.
 

Episode 33, Part 3: JP’s In, JessiBel is Out

Ant and Andrea: Ant wants to know why Andrea is down. She thinks he has forgotten their arrangement. Ant remembers very well...he is practicing with others before he will be with her. QTH??

"Jessica" is getting prepared and dressed…as is JP.

Andrea meets JP at the door, lets him in. Ant is waiting for him. Then JP runs straight into JessiBel. Oh Boy. While Ant goes off to talk to one of the girls, JP asks what JessiBel does there; and she asks him the same. JP tells her he is there to work for the Colombiano. Bela tells him to leave that place, but Ant approaches and greets JP. As they walk away, Ant asks Bela if she has been taken care of...Bela says no.

Columbia: Vero says Andrea sent her the info so they can enter as tourists. Suzy thinks that in 6 months their lives will be different. Vero hopes that success will not change them.

JP and Ant at JPs 'New Job'…Ant wants to know how JP could dare to send over the feds. JP tells him that he can keep them away. He wants Ant to hire him or he will keep harping on the missing girls. JP can make his life miserable, but he would rather help him.

Andrea and Jessica could pass for Sisters. Andrea calls her in and Jessica eyes JP in the next room through a huge glass window with Ant. Andrea wanted Jess to be honest...is she employed or unemployed. Jess gives her some background. Andrea asks about a BF but Jess doesn't have one.

Ant wants to make sure they will watch each other's backs. Ant agrees to pay JP a portion of what he will be getting...during a trial period. Ant then goes and shares with Andrea that JP is hired. Andrea tells Jess that they need someone with more experience and thanks her. Bye, bye, JessiBel!

Eman and Emi at his office. Eman asks Emi if she is satisfied with her pay. Does he really think she is going to says that she is? Eman will show her how to make more money with something she has had within reach since a child.

Jess tells Andrea that she will go talk to Ant. Andrea gets upset; so Bela asks why the other person was able to go in. Bela storms into Ant’s office and asks Ant why she can’t be hired if she can do the job. Ant backs up Andrea. Andrea asks someone to accompany Jess out the door.

Back in the batcave, Mike and Pene are close and personal. They discuss the missing girls. Pene thinks that maybe one will appear and give them some info.

Columbia- Vero's mom worries about how they will get along in the big city. The girls try to calm her down. Suzy tells her they will send her money. They all toast.

JP and Ant out in the PantiesMX factory. Ant tells JP that Andrea is the life of the factory…she’s his right hand. After Ant leaves, Andrea tells JP that she is in charge of the factory. JP and Andrea talk a bit then she walks away and puts her shake in overdrive, knowing he is watching.

Bela tells Pene that she is upset that JP was eating up Andrea with his eyes. Pene thinks JP being at the factory is dangerous especially if they are seen together. Bela then tells Pene that Andrea didn’t want to hire her.

 

Come on Woofer this is now set in a panty factory. You Gotta watch until we get to the next beast, the soybean farmer or whatever he is.

Thanks RGV, I don't know how you do it. Er..well maybe I'll find out. :-)
 

Episode 34, Part 1: Pene is In…and So Are the Colombian Girls

Andrea offers to get JP a taxi but he declines. As he walks, Bela shouts to him from her car and wants to know why JP has that big smile…is it that he got the job or that he will be working with Andrea?? Green Monster on the loose…

Pene questions Simon about what he and JP are doing. She warns him that JP is in an explosive situation...Simon might end up without a friend.

Bela and JP meet in a bar after work. JP teases Bela that she is jealous. Bela worries that he-is putting his life in danger. JP thinks she is feeling what he was feeling when she went after the other beasts.

Eman and Emi playing cards and practicing for the casino. Eman tells her she should stare at the cards Emi figures he is teaching her how to cheat.

Now they are at the casino practicing. Eman is at the card table when Emi approaches in. As they gamble, Emi is soaking it all in.

In Columbia, the girls celebrate. Vero's mom reminds her that she shouldn't forget her family. Vero assures her mother that she will never forget her family and promises that she will take care of Suzy.

Ant and Andrea ...Andrea tells Ant that the Colombian girls should arrive soon. She asks about JP. Ant wonders if she liked JP. Andrea replies she was just nice to him; so Ant warns her to be careful…she is for him only. Andrea is upset because she has shown him her loyalty for many years.

JP and Bela walking at night. Bela wants to work with him and Simon…to take care of him. JP says that is his job…to take care of her. Bela doesn't want him to risk his life because of a promise. JP will do what he has to do. He wants to do things the right way while fulfilling his promise.

At the casino, Emi looks nervous since security is watching over the table. She looks at Eman who signals her to leave. Emi leaves and as they walk out, Eman tells her she did very well. He tells her that what just happened, she should never forgot. Emi says that if she keeps it up she won’t have to work ever again. Eman says she can win much more than she could ever imagine.

Comeback gym- Mike tells Bela not to worry about JP since he trained for many years to be a cop. Bela still worries. Mike makes a suggestion and Bela thinks he is a genius. They look at Pene and tell her she will be the one to infiltrate the company.

Columbia-Vero and Sue leaving for the airport.

Ant and Andrea: Andrea tells Ant that the girls will arrive that afternoon. Andrea worries that he is going to hire illegals. Ant says that is why JP was hired.

 

Episode 34, Part 2: Pene is In…and So Are the Colombian Girls

Bela and Mike look at the pics of the missing girls. Bela mentions Alejandra Gomez, who was the only one that returned to Colombia. If they can find her, she may be able to give them info.

Andrea and JP are about to leave for the factory. Andrea asks JP why he is working for Ant; so he tells her he needs the job.

At college, Emi talks to the guy that tried to rape her. She tells the others what he did and they all hiss at him.

JP and Andrea, and she is major flirting. Andrea laughs because an ex fed is at the airport picking up their girls. JP wants to know what Ant's director is doing there too; so she tells him that she is just accompanying him. Andrea then tells him that he is there to prove who he is and what he can do. They need him to fix it so the girls can enter the country without any problems.

A redhead Pene shows up at PantiesMX to apply and is greeted by Ant. He shows her around and takes her out into the factory and looks over her resumé. He tells her that his director is not there, but is impressed with all her experience. He tells her about his business. He asks if she could assimilate into the factory. He also thinks she could even be a model.

Ant tells Pene how he arrived with nothing when he first came to Mex. He sold a lot then he started the company. Pene congratulates him on his success. Ant says they have nothing more to talk about…because she is hired. He hugs her…ten times...she looks SO uncomfortable .

JP and Andrea meet the Columbian girls at the airport. The girls arrive. Introductions are made. Vero apologizes for all the trouble she caused…blah blah blah

Yoga Bela thinking about JP with Andrea...as Mike looks on...green monster showing…can't even do her yoga. She still worries about JP risking his life...and he is close to Andrea who is very pretty. She apologizes to Mike...she knows she needs to focus.

Emi all excited in Eman’s office. Emi tells Eman they have to go to the casino tonight…the rush she felt at the casino has no comparison. Eman then tells her to make an appointment with the Senator for that afternoon.

Andrea is working on JP about the illegal Columbian girls, and being soooo giggly. JP is watching as the girls have lunch. Andrea reminds the girls that they came to model not to eat the whole city. Andrea returns to the car and JP thinks that it will be impossible to pass the girls as Mexicans. It won't be easy to get documentation for them. Andrea reminds him that is why he was hired.

Ant shows Pene to her desk. He chose that station so the sun could make her shine. Ant walks away and Pene calls Mike to tell him she got the job and pretends to talk to her mami.
 

Episode 34, Part 3: Pene is In…and So Are the Colombian Girls

Bela at her parent's graves. She tells her father that she still has a long way to go to fulfill her promise. She worries about JP and she is jealous. She tells her father she needs him because she doesn't know what to do in that type of situation.

Emi calls Senator on behalf of Eman to make an appointment. Sen tells her that if Eman wants to talk to him he should call him directly, but he goes ahead and accepts the appointment.

Pene has been at work 5 minutes and already snooping in books. She finds a file on a girl, then sees Ant approaching; so she takes the file with her.

Ant, Andrea, and JP are showing Vero and Susy the factory. Ant tells Andrea that he hired her assistant already. Then he talks to JP about proving that he is on his side; so he needs JP to get the docs to show that the girls are Mexican citizens.

Simon talks to Ric about the case of the missing girls. Ric thinks this is JP's idea; and Simon denies it. Ric gives him 15 days to bring him new info on the case.

Andrea and Pene: Andrea warns Pene not to get involved with Ant. Andrea tells her to dress accordingly. She also warns Pene that once Ant beds a girl, he won't want anything to do with her anymore.

Ant, Andrea, and JP with the new girls—JP assures Ant that he will help him. Ant asks for the girls' passports. When they refuse, Ant is impressed and tells them never to give their passports to anyone.
 

Thank you, Rgv Chick. You sure did the double episode justice.

“Novios”? Really? Somehow that word does not quite describe it. . .


 

Double duty done delightfully Rgv Chick. Your intriguing recap was far, far better than the episodes themselves.

You have such a flair for writing - "then she walks away and puts her shake in overdrive, knowing he is watching" and "Green Monster on the loose…" were among many favorites.

"he is practicing with others before he will be with her". How many ways can you say "repulsive"???

Surely Andrea knows all of Ant's hideous secrets. I must say that I'd rather not learn any of them. Whatever happened to a good, old fashioned money laundering scheme? Something not utterly stomach churning.

And, all are actors here. Except the tiger, who is doing a masterful job of perfectly playing a wild animal chained up against his will. I certainly hope those links hold up. Happy Tony the Tiger he is not.

Talk about an uncomfortable dinner. Jarifa, I had to cringe at the "Novios" remark too. JP was totally caught off guard as was Bella, but Bella recovered quicker.

I can't even hazard a guess as to what Em's intentions with Emi are. Call me cynical but I don't think there is an ounce of love on his part. Sadly, Bella seems to have no idea who Em is. There have been clues, but she is oblivious.

Pene is almost jumping out of her skin. If she doesn't stay calm, she will be in big trouble. And can someone tell me please what she said to Simon when he pulled up in the car? That said, I like Pene and Mike's quiet compatibility.

"Vero hopes that success will not change them". Oh my. Poor, poor deluded girl.

"Emi leaves and as they walk out, Eman tells her she did very well". I am completely lost as to what Em is teaching Emi.

Bella is doing a slow boil over Andrea. It appears JP did watch her walk away with a bit too much interest.

Rgv Chick, you are the best! Thank you.

Diana
 

"Pene questions Simon about what he and JP are doing. She warns him that JP is in an explosive situation...Simon might end up without a friend".

Rgv Chick, I think you answered my question. I thought they were having a lukewarm lover's spat, but she was just trying to warn him.

Thank you!

Diana
 

The new skill for Emilia is card counting?
 

Diana, I sure agree about wondering what Emanuel’s true intentions are with Emilia especially after wanting to teach her how to count cards. Odd. At least Penélope lost the braids.
 

Thanks Jarifa. Emi seems with it one minute and the next? I don't know.

Yes, I was also happy to see Pene braidless.

Diana
 

Jarifa: It's about time Penelope got rid of the braids.

RVG Chick: JP infiltrating Antonio's organization. What could possibly go wrong ?

Kirby: I do have an antenna from Dish Network.
 

This comment has been removed by the author.
 

Argggh...typos...........

Steve, a Dish antenna or a UHF antenna? I mean, does it allow you to get Over The Air broadcasts? If so, then you should be able to find a Univision station, right? Most of us in the Southern US have a bounty of Spanish stations within range.

She DID put an extra shake in it for JP, I agree with RGV. You girls may not admit it but you do. I have researched this at length. Unfortunately for JP, it is all just an act on Andrea's part, it appears, to suck him in. She has almost a cult leader/follower relationship with Antonio, and all her fawning, giggling, shaking and prissing is for a darker purpose I am convinced. JP should see this, but woofing and wagging usurps almost all cerebral energy such that little is left to examine the situation objectively.

I am enjoying watching the Green eat up Bela's jealous little ass. We are not seeing an all positive side of Ms Bela the killer. What is alright and just 'in a days work' for her does NOT apply to JP. To be honest, most of her rules apply only to her and no one else. Lies come to mind, as well as her one sided relationship with Pene and Mike. Great legs and a come hither smile only gets you so far.

I saw Pene at home with Mike without the braids and was shocked. If she had any friends other than Bela and Mike one of them would have told her long ago. Don't you need to undo all those things to shampoo your hair? If so, isn't that like removing the engine to change the oil in the family car? #impractical #painintheass
 

The Lost Girls: I assume the way this works for Ant and And, is she lures these girls into Mex without the legal papers, etc. so they are undocumented and untraceable. She has the looks to make them believe that is how she got her start or some such. Then Antonio and maybe Andrea sells them into the sex slave trade and they mysteriously disappear.

At first I thought Andrea was an unwitting helper, unaware of what Antonio was really doing, but after seeing her trickery, and her proclamation to him last night that she had been unwavering and loyal for years, I now believe she is just as dirty as he is.

Emi and Eman at the casino? I'm lost. A formal dinner to announce that they are a couple? I'm friggin' lost. Having Emi break tradition and call the Senator when Eman has always called before? I'm more than lost.
 

Chickie, wow, thank you for such a detailed recap of a double episode.

Andrea and Bella really do look alike. Is there going to be a case of mistaken identity?

The writers have spiced things up with Ant, a guy who likes to drape ladies' undies over his arm like a highclass waiter ,someone who resembles the warrior princess , and a tiger ..all set in an underwear factory. Panties R Us.

What did And keep spraying ? Air freshener?
 

all set in an underwear factory. Panties R Us.


I'm in.
 

Good Morning, Patio! For a 2 hour episode, it seems like not very much happened.

Jarifa, "novios" ITA not befitting in this situation. So what is Eman's true intention in telling JP and Bela...and the rest of the world that he and Emi are novios? Diana, you are spot on that Eman has no good intention and I too am clueless as to what he is up to.

And Diana, "Tony the Tiger" Puuur-fect! I hadn't thought of the original Tony the Tiger in ages....ohhh memories!

Jarifa, yes, Eman was teaching Emi how to count cards...and he told her it wasn't cheating; it is just showing that she has a good skill...whatever! And what was with that getup she was wearing...could she have been more obvious?

Kirby, Bela isn't looking or thinking well at all right now. Maybe Pene was right in suggesting that she let some one else take the lead, because she is totally unfocused. How is it that she had such an amazingly impressive resumé when she applied with La Madame and now her resumé showed she lacked experience? QTH?

Kirby I was totally surprised that the Senator caved in so quickly especially since he made it a point to tell Emi to her boss that he needed to call him directly...no sense at all. Does that qualify for a beanie?

CORRECTION/CLARIFICATION on last scene: After Ant threatens to dismiss JP if he can't get the fake docs for the girls, JP assures Ant that he will get them. Ant then asks for the girls' passports, but they refuse because it was the very first thing they were told NOT to do--give someone their passports. Ant tells them that is absolutely right, but then makes them feel bad by telling them that they can go ahead and look around elsewhere (for a job) if they don't trust all that he is offering; so they GIVE HIM their passports!


 

Kirby: Panties R Us ? ROFLOL.
 

Chickie... ",her resume showed she lacked experience"????...experience???...with panties???

I once had a student , and when someone was taking my picture, she told me to say "panties" . I thought that it was a Spanish word , and I asked her what it meant ( cheese? Smile?). She said ",panties" , "you know ..panties."

I also was reminded me of a student i had who made prototypes for an underwear com pany. One day, out of the clear blue sky, she brought another student and me some undergarments.It was, perhaps, one of the odder gifts that I have received from my students..including a large, frozen turkey.

 

Oh that was Susanlynn who coined Panties R Us, but I do like where this is going.
"her resume showed she lacked experience"????...experience???...with panties???" totally believable


Boy, after each more loathsome than the last Beast, I almost miss Norman and Castor.
 

I'd rather be photographed saying PANTIES ! than Joe Boxer.
 

Rgv Chick, thank you for clarifying the passport stuff. It all went over my head and didn't even realize what had happened. But the fact they gave them up will seemingly bode a tragic ending for them.

Oh my Susanlynn. You are on fire today with "experience with panties"! Still chuckling.

And on a serious note, I totally agree Kirby. I shudder to think what the next horror will bring. Comforting avatar.

Diana
 

Thank you, Rgv Chick.

Simon telling JP how beautiful Andrea is. Andrea commenting to JP about the size of her panties, and flirting with him. Ant questioning Andrea if she liked JP. And most importantly Bela's jealousy. Are these hints about future development of the relationship between Andrea and JP, real or fake?

"he is practicing with others before he will be with her. QTH??" - And Andrea is buying this?

It felt like a competition between Bela and JP for the job. Maybe that is why Bela tried that desperate move to try Ant after she was rejected by Andrea. If Bela had the interview with Ant she sure would have gotten the position. I liked the scene when Bela was escorted out and JP escorted in the factory. Andrea saying pleasant "Hola" to JP. The look on Bela's face.

"JP and Andrea talk a bit then she walks away and puts her shake in overdrive, knowing he is watching."

"He hugs her…ten times...she looks SO uncomfortable."

Bela at her parent's graves. Interesting, when talking about the bestias she talks to her papá. When talking about JP and romance, she talks to her ma.
 

Emi & Eman: Most of us have said we would be OK with Emi just going far, far away. But who doesn't love a lirttle mystery, and Emi and Emanuel is like a train wreck. It is sickening, but you can't seem to look away.

That said, do the beasts as a group own the casino? I believe they do, as Armando was more or less their manager, but not the owner. And if so, is Eman teaching Emi how to cheat the casino which he and his secret business partners own? Is he thinking of putting distance between himself and the other beasts? I mean Emilia would never be able, for many reasons, to win enough to hurt the casino, but could in her world become quite wealthy.
 

"Bela at her parent's graves... When talking about JP and romance, she talks to her ma".

Thank you Lucio. I have been wondering why Bella has little to say to and about her mother. It's bothered me. I'm glad she hasn't totally forgotten her.

Hmmm. Maybe it's best Simon isn't at the factory. As JP is totally spoken for yet a bit intrigued by Andre, Simon would be tripping all over himself. If I weren't convinced Andrea is a totally beasty beyotch, I wouldn't mind her pairing with Simon. Leaving Pene for Mike of course.

Diana
 

I noticed that Ant and Andrea use voseo, other form of tú. I didn't think it was used in Columbia. After some research, it is used in some regions of Columbia. However, living many years in Mexico, wouldn't they adopt tuteo? When in Rome, do as the Romans do?
 

Rgv Chick, thank you! How you ever managed to crank out such an excellent recap of a two hour show in one night will always be a mystery to me, but thank you.

I think I'm the contrarian here, but Bela is just annoying me lately, and not looking all that great either. That dinner with Pickle, Eman, Emi, and her? Emi was by far the best looking woman there. Bela really overdid the makeup and looked like she was going to a cattle call for a "cheap hooker". Nor do I think she looks like Andrea. Andrea is probably totally nutso, but she is hot! The girls from Colombia, while not Sofía Vergara, are hot. Bela is not. Penny looks good upside down, but she's not hot, not even braidless.

Why men in this TN get so excited over Bela and/or Pene is totally baffling to me. Other than it's in the script, and they're getting paid to look interested.

OK, end of rant from crotchety old guy suffering from eye candy withdrawal.


So Eman and Emi are going to break the bank by counting cards. I'll bet casino owners the world over are sweating bullets and hoping the word doesn't get out. Unless they are in on the gag.

And this is not the first time I have to wonder how it is that Simon, and JP before him, gets to lead other agents on raids and operations that they want to do. In Mexico can you go to the Federal Police Academy and graduate as a full Colonel, answerable only to the Director General?


Chocolate! I need more chocolate and some eye candy to go with it...

:-)

andy
 

Thanks to.you, I can now enjoy Kirbys amazing photos! RgvChivk, you were so helpful.
 

OK you are swimming in panties and now you are getting picky?
Totally agree about Bela's looks and personality. What was she/they thinking with that face at the Novios dinner?

And thank you Andy, I have been slipping in little barbs here and there lately of how selfish and dishonest Bela is, being a murderer notwithstanding. Like she can be jealous of JP but not vice versa, same for lying.

But she does have a rocking little body which looks to be in tip top shape, same for Pene.. Oh and Mike too, but I don't care.
 

OT: NiNa and RGV -----Victoria with her radio looked like me with my TV antenna when one of our Florida thunderstorms rolls though while B&B is on.
 

Thanks, Rgv Chick. I know this double episode had to take up a lot of your time and you're already superbusy. My fave:

QTF? Going steady? Hopping? Has her job back? Buying her some boobs?

JP and Andrea talk a bit then she walks away and puts her shake in overdrive, knowing he is watching.

Andy, Bella is annoying me too. I love that Bella got fired while JP got hired. And she's worried for JP going undercover? Hey, what about all the undercover work untrained Pene's been doing? Haven't seen Bella worrying about Pene.

Pene looked great without braids, with her hair pulled back (in a ponytail?). But the bushy bangs wig doesn't do anything for her. I don't know if it's the hair color or the style, but Pene has looked better. I like that Andrea told her to dress better. Now I know Andrea wants Pene to be less attractive to Colombiano, but I would like to see Pene step up her wardrobe.
 

Kirby, I forgot to mention that that eagle would make Uncle Sugar proud.

andy
 

After reading all these comments, I’m wondering which character(s) would make the “Most Liked” list. After much consideration, I don’t think we’d have a list! We would, however, have a Most Annoying list, a Most Hated list and a few other lists.

I hopeo the writers did something in the next few episodes to restore Bela’s likability. She sure is a far cry from Fabiola in Ramoon.

OT-Kirby, I laughed when Victoria lost her signal. So do you get on you furniture too?
 

Chickie, I , too, was thinking what a different character Esme plays in this show compared to the innocent young thing that she played in Ramoon.

P.s. I ran into Chickie from high school in the grocery store the other day and thought of you !!I

I think that there is a blood moon tonight.
 

Blood moon but not here. Visible in the Middle East, I think.
 

OT Victoria and her radio. Not quite that bad, I'm just too much bigger. She was climbing around like a little squirrel.
 

Well, let me just get on my private jet and fly over to the Middle East :-) World news had a segment on the blood moon...it’s happening right now. I suppose I won’t make it in time
:-(
 

Chickie...we do love our moons here, don't we?
 

Susanlynn: Looking forward to seeing the recap.
 

Ms Chick this was a long shift for you
And you done it justice.

So the ant man is practicing with other girls before his maiden voyage with Andrea. Is she crazy? Yeah she
Probably is, he is.

So what's bela gonna do since she didn't get hired and pene did? And does Simon know it?

I'm not used to 2 hours of this show.
I hope it's back to 1 Monday.
The green monster keeps popping up.
Hey I just had A thought, what if Andy
Killed the girls in a jealous rage, and he really don't know cuz She told him she sent them back where they came from? He has know reason not to believe her. It wouldn't surprise me if she's more twisted than he is.

Did pickle really think she had a chance with Eman? I couldn't see him pickin her up off the floor every time they went out to dinner or cocktail partys at the club. Lol, that would just be to comical. But he'd get tired
Of that crazy ride and do a "Maria" on her. Went on vacation to south africa, she thought could swim the dolphins, and she did.
Emi is not going to breakup with her very Own brand new novio, not when she got him all by her big girl grown-up self. Jp is worried about his baby sis
And he should be, she is envolved the
Satan himself. I think he's more cold blooded than her daddy was, and he had
Mud in his veins. Ok enough for me

Thank you Ms Chick. This roller coaster ride is gettin crAzier and crazier.

 

Bela_Ep_35

The Columbian girls, VerSus, have just foolishly handed their passports over to Antonio the flesh merchant.

Emi and Eman at his office and he is telling her to keep it professional at work. Eman tells Emi not to wait for him. He may be late. He explains that when professional relationships grow personal things tend to change. I think he gave Emi permission to fire the secretary.

Andrea gives Pene a folder. JP comes by as Andrea returns Pene continues to snoop and takes pics of files. JP sees her and asks what she is doing. She gets nervous and tells him she was doing what she was asked to do.

Beast meeting Eman complains that Ant is missing, but the others tell him Ant will go with the majority. Eman wants his portion of the casino back. Eman explains that he is not asking to get back into the association, he just wants his portion back. Cris is suspicious and asks him to talk clearly. He tells them that he wants his 20% to go to Emi. Wait What happened?

Bela and Mike boxing and she wigs out and he has to restrain her. He tells her she is doing well. She has to get her anger out. Pene calls and tells Mike that she got what he asked for regarding the Colombian girl.

Emi and Eman's secretary Emi talking to the secretary and makes small talk. She asks her if she wasn't a secretary what would she like to be. Secretary asks what she wants so Emi tells her she is finding a way to give her some news. The good news is that she can start a doing what she wants, the bad news is that she is fired. Eman only needs one assistant.

Vero thinks the house is very prettty and after all they will be together. Ant has a surprise for them. Suzy asks what surprise. Ant pretends to get upset that they are being difficult so they go ahead and do as he asks

Mike and Bela in the ring Bela is sure Alejandra still lives where they called. She doesn't want to call again because she fears they will scare the girl. She suggests they go to Colombia.

Pene at Panties with JP JP asks Pene what she was looking for. Pene says they are working as a team. JP makes a comment about the wig..do she and Bela share wigs?

Bela is adamant about going to Columbia. WHAT else is NEW? Mike thinks they will waste time going to Colombia. Bela pleads with him because she wants to get info so that Pene and JP can leave the company. Alejandra Gomez is the only Colombian girl that was a model for Ant and returned to Colombia.

Eman, Cris, and Ant on the golf course The beasts think it's too much money for a young girl. Eman says that she is a Quintero and has better qualities than her father. the beasts are still arguing with Eman about Emi. Ignacio thinks Eman is smart, He wants to marry Emi and get his percentage that way. Eman gives them an ultimatum. They accept his offer or their deal will be nonexistent.

Beasts golfing and Cris wonders how he will explain to Emi that she now has a fortune. Beasts worry about Emi being involved with them. Eman assures them that Emi won't be making any decisions.

Bela and JP after work and arguing again. Bela worries about what he has been asked to do. There will come a time when Ant will ask him to do something that he will regret for the rest of his life. JP will do whatever he needs to do to get the beast behind bars. Bela harps on him risking his life. JP gets upset and tells her he understand now so she doesn't have to help him. He leaves. Good move JP. She walked all over Ramon too.

JP goes to talk to (his only friend) Simon about this. JP and Simon talking and JP needs his help. He tells Simon about the two girls. Simon tells him they have no VISAs to work. JP asks Simon to help him get documents to show they are Mex. Then JP goes to Bela's and has to get past Mike and finds out Bela went to Columbia. JP goes to the airport and is TOO LATE. Surprise?

Beasts are still discussing the Eman plan and the beasts and Eman are talking about JP working for Ant. Eman thnks they should let Ant find out for himself who JP reallly is.

Lingerie show is over now and Ant is very excited about the girls. They will do well. Andrea tells Ant not to give the girls so much to drink. They will gain weight. Vero wants to go rest she is tired. She summmons Suzy but Suzy wants to stay for a drink. Ant asks Vero if she feels well, Vero says yes.

He also wants them to give him his wedding gift now.

Simon at Interpol talking to Ric. He tells Ric about the girls who arrived to work with Ant. He tells him they need to get them some legal docs. Simon told Ric he had someone on the inside...working at the company. Ric wants to know who.... Oh my my, who could it be? Hmmmm does he have a sister? Nopis, Is his Mom hot? Next..maybe an unemployed buddy?  Ric told him they needed to keep an eye on the two girls to make sure they didn't have the same fate as the others. Ric wnats to know who he has on the inside. Simon refuses to tell him. If they don;t get the doc his informant will not be able to continue working on the inside.

Susy alone with Ant and getting a bit tipsy aka horny. Still drinking. Ant tells her it's late. Ant reminds her she came to work. Suzy says she is wiling to work like a mule in order to be successful and stay in Mex.
 

Ant and Andrea bedtime. WTF is that aerosol? Bug spray ? They are talking about the girls and JP. Then Andrea asks about the assitant he hired.
Pene was talking to Bela on the phone. They hope Bela finds the girl. Pene wonders why they all aren't working together since JP is on the inside Simon is helping and she is in too.
Pickle and JP want to talk to Emi. They want the truth. what does she feel for Eman. Emi says she is in love. JP asks if Eman has obligated her to do something she hasn't;t wanted to do. Emi gets upset. She tells them that her relationship with Eman is serious and she is not going to leave him.

Bela_Ep_36 Bella turns into Jane Bond and goes international

Bela in Columbia and has found Alejandra Gomez, who, by the way, is terrified that she has been found. Bela insists on inviting herself in although Ale is scared to death and tries to keep Bela out. It is one notch removed from a home invasion. The Mom gets involved and starts to call the popo. Bela tells them she wants to help the other girls. Then go help them and don't bust down my front door?

Eman is not happy that JP doesn't think well of his relationship with Emi. JP asks what the age difference is. Eman points out that he can help Emi.  Eman is trying to convince JP that he can help Emi. As long as Emi is with him, JP has nothing to worry about. Emi is in good hands. Eman says that now that they are family, he wants to help JP. JP refuses and tells him to be careful.

Next morning with Ant and VerSus Vero comments that they noticed his love for animals. They chitchat some more. He tells Suzy she has some type of an appointment to hydrate her face.

JP and Emi...Emi wants to know what JP told Eman JP hopes that Eman is honest in saying that he only wants what is best for her.

Bela calms Ale and Mom enough for them to stop calling the cops and shows them THE VIDEO. Bela tells ALe that she doesn't want to put her in danger, she just wants to help the missing girls. And she wants to take down Ant. The mom tells her how ALe returned with marks and in pretty bad shape.

Ant and Vero early morning still in robes drinking champagne Vero is ready and asks for the photographer. Ant offers her a drink. Ant tells her that It was he who chose her. He tells her he likes her. She fascinates him. Does anybody smell horse manure? Just checking...He is being upfront. Vero is uncomfortable. He wants her to be the queen of his house and be his international and national model.
Never heard of such a thing

Andrea and JP JP asks for Ant but Andrea tells him he wanted some alone time with Vero. JP asks what Andrea's job is. She tells him she is Ant's assistant. JP thnks he is being her nanny. Mr Speedo in the pool and Vero poolside Ant still trying to pressure Vero and seduce her. but he just wanted to be sincere and upfront. He tells her he had never said this. When he saw her he felt something so special. He had never felt that way. She is so intelligent. He wants her to give in to him. Vero is not accustomed to things going so fast. A prince of a man. Who could resist.? Andrea will never see them out by the pool in broad daylight. Well, look at those speedos Vero, you will still technically be a virgin.

ALe Gomez is sorry about Bela's dad. Bela tells them that man will pay for what he idid. Bela wants Ale to tell her how everything happened.

JP and Andrea in some bar doing shots...what could go wrong? Have any of these people spent one sober day? Andrea asks the bartender to give JP a drink so that maybe it will help him be more relaxed and tell her about himself. Jp wants to know how she became Ant's right hand woman. Andera came to Mex Her mother and grandmother were into some bad stuff and she was able to escape from Columbia and came to Mex.

Eman and Emi in the stairs. Eman tells Emi that he is training her for another job.

Vero and predator still by the pool. Vero, think. Have you noticed anyone else around Antonio all the time?
 

Part 2

Vero insists that she is not used to going so fast. She wants romance. Vero brings up Suzy; she likes him too. She doesn't want this thing between them to make problems for her and Suzy. Ant thnks Vero should think of herself. She is kissing him. Remember that part about pretty and stupid? Hmmm

Ale tells Bela that Ant is the king of seduction. Andrea called her and told her that she had been selected to be the face of a lingerie line. They picked her up at the airport and took her tho Ant's house. He seduced her, told he he would take her to his bed and make her the queen of his house.

JP and Andrea still doing shots. Does Bela have his phone bugged? Now that would be fun. JP tells Andrea that their pasts are not that different. Andrea tells him that he didn't have a mother who was a pro and didn't try to make him be a pro too. They didn't allow her to study since prostitutes didn;t need schooling. Her mother sold her to the worst man...as a virgin. Ant rescued her. He knew what was happening and saved her. Wow there is electricity between JP and Andrea She owes Ant her freedom. And Ant only wants to protect her. JP asks if she and Ant have "relations" She says no. Bela will go into a low earth orbit if she ever finds out JP and Andrea had drinks and a cozy talk. Much less if she knew he asked Andrea if she was banging the boss.

Emi is just whining. why doesn't Eman just slap her and shut her up? She is allowed into the elevator which impressed her.

Columbia Bela with Ale and her Mom. Ale tells Bela that she was given money, jewelry, clothes. Ant would pay her well. He always knew what to give her But she had to wake up from that dream.

After the magic while Vero still sleeps in his bed Ant takes a picture. Why not a Kardashian style video? Every----body has a sex tape.

JP and Andrea talk about Ant's business. She gives him advice. He shouldn't work with his father's associates.

EMi and Eman in an upstairs observation room at casino. The security office. She doesn't understand what she is doing there. Eman tells her she will be running the casino. Emi is upset that he brought her to work with the people who took her fortune. To appease her, he tells her that she is part owner of the casino 20%

Columbia and Bela has calmed Ale and Mom enough to really have a talk. Ale doesn't want to put her mother in danger. Bela promises that she won't tell anyone anything. Ale tells her that when the job was over, Ant beat her and locked her in her room. He then took her into a room with the other girls who also stopped being his queens. He then had them work as prostitutes at his hotel.

Ant assembles his girls.

Pene at work and Bela calls at the worst time to update her about Ale. Bela needs to talk to JP. He's not there. Bela tells Pene to tell him to call her. Pene out in the shop and asks where the boxes are going? The lady tells her to the USA . Pene asks why they aren't going directly to Colombia. Pene call Andrea and asks for JP. Andera tells her to give her the message and she will tell him (which cannot happen) but Pene needs to give him the message personally. Andera tells her JP is busy and hangs up. I have him slobbering all over me right now, but maybe....

Eman and Emi walking around the casino and Emi is still insisiting that the association took everything from her. Eman reminds her that 20% of all this is hers. She needs to let it go.
 

Part 84 or maybe 3

Ric comes in to see Simon RIc tells Simon that he never thought he would follow in JP's footsteps.,,doing things without permission. RIc gives Simon the docs for the girls. Welcome to the team Rick.

As JP and Andrea are leaving JP asks what happened to the girls that disappeared. JP tells her that Ant is doing something illegal and she is his accomplice. Andrea tells him she is loyal to Ant. JPeeee things were getting so...cozy.

Vero wakes up and the maid gives her a bell to ring whenever she needs anything. Ding ding ding...bring me a gun?

Bela tells Ale that she is only going to share the info with one person, her BF.

In Columbia at Ale's house the delivery guy kept looking at Bela...weird.

Ant is handing out the room keys to his hookers. Ant tells the girls that they will have everything they need. One girl asks when they will be allowed to see their families. Delivery guy calls Ant and tells him Ale has a visitor that looks suspicious. And she has a Mex accent. Oh Noes.

Nite
 

PS
The 20% for Emi will not be in her name and will be in an overseas company which she will manage. His sudden ability to put up with Emi and his nonsense with the other beasts about a wedding present are becoming clear now.
 

Thanks, Kirby, for the recap.

Emanuel is no fool but . . .

can’t somebody please knock off Emilia? Already?
 

Jarifa, ya where are a bunch of termites when you need them?
 

That was funny, Kirby.
 

From a couple days ago:

"JP knows that Antonio has hired 10 girls as models and nine have disappeared. JP insists that Antonio can use his services to protect himself." when JP was trying to talk Antonio into hiring him as security.

Last night when Antonio had the sex slaves gathered and passing out their little packets or whatever, there were NINE girls.

Coinky Dinky? I seriously doubt it. I went back and rewatched that and counted girls.
 

Best I could do, there are Nine.Girls------------------------------------------------ > > >
 

Kirby: When did Univision extend this TN to 2 full HRS ?
 

Jarifa: Simon is JP's only friend ?
 

Kirby, I appreciate all the details and your humor "Pene at Panties" of a double episode I fell asleep during.

"flesh merchant". True and sobering. "Bella turns into Jane Bond and goes international". It seems Bella was flying high but is losing altitude. Not getting the job and now apparently being "discovered" early on at Ale's. Her fortune is changing. Cracks in her foundation are showing.

I'm trying to be objective. Even if I didn't know who and what Ant is, I honestly find nothing appealing about him. Whatsoever. Knowing what I do he makes my skin crawl. Perhaps his position of authority at a panty factory impresses some. I'm impervious to any "charms". Ack.

I was sorry to have missed the Andrea and JP social. I think Andrea is pretty but there's a hard edge and I'm not finding her personality all that palatable either.

So is Mike going to be relegated to answering the phone at the bat cave? He is one of the more interesting characters here and he's languishing in the background.

"Eman only needs one assistant". Major confusion. So I guess he doesn't need to have any work done as we wonder if Emi actually knows how to do anything in an office. "Eman assures them that Emi won't be making any decisions". No kidding.

When Emi threw the cash in her attackers face the other day, there was a flash of defiance and spirit. It was too brief and flickered out fast. She is 99.9% annoying - agree Jarifa.

Happy Saturday all.

Thanks Kirby!

Diana
 

Steve: El Chapo ended on Wednesday nite, and La Piloto does not start until this Monday, so they just had two nights of an extra hour to fill.

JP --- Simon seems to be his only buddy. These screwed up TN folks seem not to have a normal circle of friends like Humans normally do.
 

Diana he is rich, not actually ugly, slim and healthy looking, lives in a mansion and owns a huge garment factory. Ant chooses women who have nothing but their looks, and they are goners. A normal sharp girl would laugh at his posturing and ask him who died and left him in charge.

But they haven't shown his car or boat, usually a deal breaker. :-)
 

"if Emi actually knows how to do anything in an office."

I believe she removed all doubt when she was wearing his jacket?
 

Thank you, Kirby.

Bela released very sensitive information to Alejandra and her mother. She is the daughter of the man the club members voted to kill. She has a video of the vote. She has a boyfriend ex police who is working with her. If the women talk and this information gets to Ant, Bela and JP are toast.

Not sure what Andrea wanted from this date with JP. If she wanted to extract information from JP she didn't get much. JP, on the other hand, learned a lot about her. Her life story, her relationship with Ant, that she is a virgin. You are right, Kirby, if Bela heard that conversation...

Ant has a trophy drawer with pictures of girls. Vero's is the latest addition.

"Ant assembles his girls" It looked like the sergeant entered the barracks.
 

Good Day,Patio. Thank you, Kirby! Great reccap and the pic is quite appreciated.

Well, theses two hours had a lot more meat to them--literally and figuratively speaking. I can just imagine how fast Andy's and Kirby's tails were wagging--whoosh,whoosh,whoosh at lightning speed.

So we're finally shedding some light on why Eman is putting up with the spoiled, whining brat. She's his ticket back into the association and owning part of the casino. Good riddance, Emi! Have your fun while you can because when Eman is done with you and you are lying next to Maria, you surely won't need money. I suppose when Eman told the beasts that Emi had better qualities that her father, he was referring to qualities that would benefit him--naive, stupid, impulsive...

Kirby. thank you for that pic of the nine girls. Early this morning, I was wondering how many there were (I didn't count them last night) and you just confirmed it. So Bela IS going to be the super heroine and save the nine missing girls because those girls just HAVE to be the missing ones. According to what JP had said, those girls went missing within the last two years...but probably not at the same time. From what Alejandra told Bela, Antonio is using his usual routine on Vero now. So he selects a girl he "likes." Andrea calls the girl and tells her she has been selected to be the top model for some campaign or new line of lingerie. The girl gets picked up at the airport and taken to Ant's home where she lives and eats for free. He seduces her by telling her that she will become rich, famous, and his "queen." If she hesitates or refuses he threatens to have her spend some time with Tony the Tiger; so of course she opts to spend time with Tony full of bologna...and himself. When he gets tired of her, he turns on her, beats her and sends her off to his "hotel."

I'm thinking Ant gets a girl immediately after he gets rid of the current one. No wonder Andrea laughed when he came to the bedroom alone the night before. He must have a woman in his bed every night...but not Andrea.

Jarifa, I do wish Emi would just disappear...termites, piranhas, Eman...whatever, however. The girl is absolutely annoying!

Diana, "So is Mike going to be relegated to answering the phone at the bat cave?" It sure looks like it, doesn't it? My only consolation is that there is one more female beast; maybe we'll get to him in a suit again...without the suit, preferred, but oh well!

Lucio, I thought it was really dumb of Bela to show that video to Alejandra and her mother. But then I was thinking , in all of these hero(ine) type stories, the hero(ine) falls at some point in time, then (s)he recuperates strength and is fiercer than ever.Se Bela will probably be captured or hurt in some way...then come back and kick everyone's a$$.
 

Thank you ,Kirby, for going above and beyond the call of duty and recapping two episodes.

Yikes..what a sad story!ine. It is especially upsetting when you realize that this happens to real girls. I still do not get how Andrea is still a virgin if her mother sold her to a bad guy and she was rescued by another bad guy.Was Ant a good guy at some point in time? Why hasnt he slept with Andrea? That tiger must be there for a reason!!!!....hopeoing!!!!!

I am confused about one scene. A man and woman were in bed , and the man gets out of bed and finds a girl hiding across the room. Who were they?

Anyone else constantly thinking that they have to adjust their tv picture to see people be!ow their shoulders?

Well, not too hot here yet and clear , so we are enjoying a break in the rain and being outdoors.

Happy weekend, all.

 

Ms RGV Good Morning.

Talking about Bela, I catch myself thinking in terms of Good Beast and Bad Beast lately. She is turning into an attractive female Terminator. Her little stunt in Columbia should have gotten her shot. Her only salvation being that Ms. and Mrs. Gomez did not appear to have a gun.

And what was being delivered? Some earrings from Amazon or free panties?

The mystery about Em&Em sure took an expected twist. I am still not sure exactly how and why and the details, maybe it is not pertinent. Had Eman relinquished his share in the casino and withdrawn from the association? And now Emi is a way to surreptitiously get it back?
 

I think Andrea didn't indicate that she is still a virgin. (If so that needs to be fixed) Her Mother sold her to a man many years ago and the selling point at the time was that she was (very young) an a virgin, bringing a premium price.
 

and
 

Sorry. I wondered about the hidden tennis shoe wearer too. I might watch it again.
 

SusanLynn, that scene that you are describing is Andrea's flashback to when she was a child. That was Antonio in bed with (possibly) her mother when he got up and found her.

I don't get how Andrea is still a virgin either, especially living with Antonio for so long, but her mother did sell her to a man. The agreement was that Andrea was to be turned over to the man when she turned 16. I guess Antonio found her before she turned 16.

Kirby, the delivery guy was delivering meds for Mrs. Gomez. She called him by name, Elias, I think; and it seems he is the regular delivery guy. So Ant must have been keeping tabs on Alejandra for a while.
 

"I suppose when Eman told the beasts that Emi had better qualities that her father, he was referring to qualities that would benefit him--naive, stupid, impulsive" explained Emi's "allure" perfectly Rgv Chick.

Emi may be vain and vapid, but there have been a few tiny glints of kindness such as when she helped out Andrea (which I agree was a set up but I don't know what for). There are others I'd rather see as tiger bait, but I would just like to see her disappear.

In reality, poor Pene was the one who almost died - Bella's remained unscathed. I agree that she will be in for some type of retribution, but I hope it's minimal. I think whoever pokes Bella the bear will be sorry.

Kirby, I don't really understand who owns what in terms of the casino nor how the beasts came together and how they "help" each other. I do think Em may be the brightest, although I don't think the Senator is stupid. We haven't seen enough of Cris for me to form much of an opinion. I am kind of wondering what her "specialty" is. Have we been told or has it been referred to?

Susanlynn, I don't know what Andrea and Ant's "deal" is. It makes me shiver when she appears jealous when she obviously knows where all the bodies are buried. She is pure poison.

Diana
 

It was a long time ago, because Antonio had a different bed.
 

I think Cris is a money launderer, I'll look

OK " Her life changed years ago when she married a millionaire man and owner of a jewelry chain that she ends up inheriting and later using to launder money"
 

Hmmm.....thanks Kirby and chickie, for trying to explain that scene to me. So, Ant is quite a bit older than Andrea and was sleeping with her mother when he found her hiding. Weird. It reminds me of Pickle and Emi both wanting Eman. Also, Eman never answered Juris Prudence when he asked about the age difference...which I am thinking must be at least 20 ,years. Maybe Eman does not like be reminded about the fact that he seems to be attracted to girls young enough to be his daughter. Ick. Are the writers all men by the way? There seems to be some fantasizing going on here...lots of young girls and a panty factory. Geez.

I did notice that the delivery guy was really staring at Bella, and I thought uh oh.

This is a cautionary tale... Beware of smarmy guys offering you panty modeling contracts.

 

Kirby, thanks for this excellent recap, finishing up with "Part 84 or maybe 3". Yikes! Two hours of this show in one night is too much to even watch, never mind recap.

There are so many odd things in this show that I just don't understand, but the one that really gets to me is Andrea and Antonio. Ant is just weird, but Andrea? She is very good-looking, seems bright and pleasant, etc., etc., etc. Whyever is she hung up on Ant? Especially knowing as much about him as she must...

I have to go shopping for some rubber mats for the tables here at chez Andy so it won't hurt so much the next time I can't stop myself from banging my head on the table. Gotta love TNs :-p

:-)

andy
 

Juris Prudence

:-)

:-)
 

Andy, Andrea is severely damaged emotionally from being a hooker's daughter and hooker's grandaughter and being sold into prostitution as a child. In her mind she is forever indebted to Antonio, regardless of his faults, for rescuing her and theoretically saving her life.

And superficially now she has it far better than she would have ever had it without Ant. Look through her eyes.
 

Thanks, Kirby. Great job. You not only got a double episode but one with a lot of plot and dialogue. Yep, the Beasts talk a lot and I couldn't keep up with all of it. My favorite snark:

Well, look at those speedos Vero, you will still technically be a virgin.

Vero wakes up and the maid gives her a bell to ring whenever she needs anything. Ding ding ding...bring me a gun?

I'm thinking Ant regards Andrea as his human pet. She's a "find" like his tiger. A pretty young woman who is still a virgin and just waiting for the day he makes her his. Sounds like, unlike Andrea's mother, that Ant saw to it that Andrea got an education. But boy is this girl messed up after being in his orbit for years. She doesn't have empathy for the women he destroys.

Anybody else get the sense that Pene still wants to be more than socios with Mike? When they finished discussing the case, she tried to get him to stay to talk about it some more. But he was done and waved bye-bye with his back to her. Hmmm, and there's been no Round 2 with Simon. As much as I'd like a romance between Pene and Mike, I don't blame Mike. Distraction could get them killed.

Ay, Bella annoyed me again. Why couldn't she have hidden out of sight when they opened the door to the medicine delivery guy. I'm sure that remote Colombian village doesn't get much outside visitors. And here she is young, pretty, and saying "propio" in a proper Mexicanism to the guy. Sure hope no bad befalls that poor girl and her ailing mom.
 

OT: I thought this a bit unusual. La Piloto will premier simulcast on Univision and UniMas tomorrow night at 9.

Madame E ! I didn't hear anything like that from Ale to Bela. Or from Andrea to JP. It would be nice to have.
 

Girls were tired.
 

Andy, perhaps a helmet might help?? Please don't hurt yourself banging your head. We need your insight :)

"As much as I'd like a romance between Pene and Mike, I don't blame Mike. Distraction could get them killed'. Wise words Niecie.

And while you are right in that Andrea feels her life is better with Antonio Kirby, I agree with Niecie that empathy is clearly absent in Andrea. Not a fan.

Elsa, I didn't see the scene you noted so can't answer your question. If you are right that might seem to be Andrea doing something redeeming.

Glad the girls are asleep. The eagle is majestic.

Diana
 

Elsa, it was in the previews that Bela asked that question, so we'll discuss the response after Monday's episode airs. Thanks!
 

Diana, in regards to Andrea, I thought she might have some redeeming qualities back when she suggested to Vero that she not take the job because her first impulse of rejecting the job offer could have been a sign. After thinking about that, Andrea's motivation may not have been to help Vero, but to keep Vero away from Ant and his bed.
 

Good Sunday Morning, Patiohhh! Bright,sunny, hot and humid here in the RGV.

Have a glorious day!
 

Good afternoon Patty Oh! Now that we don't need to figure out Em&Em I find myself scratching my head like Diana and Niecie about Andrea. I had noticed the other day that she had almost like a cult follower relationship with Antonio. I later wondered if there was maybe a trace of the Stockholm Syndrome there too. But she has a car, access to the outside world, can come and go as she pleases, even hanging out with JP doing Tequila shots (a lot) in some bar.

She reportedly pretty much runs the factory herself, as Antonio presumably has more entertaining things to do.
She tells JP she is not sleeping with Antonio, who tells Andrea that he is "practicing" with these other women. QTF? Not sloppy seconds, Andrea, maybe hundreths? Antonio is constantly pawing, for lack of a better word, her in preparation for the glorious day when it is finally her turn..

To me that still smacks of a cult like relationship, as seen in tons of modern cults where the leader has multiple wives or other major flaws which are happily overlooked or accepted by the followers.

It would almost, I say, almost, be understandable if she had been cut off from society at large, but she is not. She lives for all practical purposes, a normal life, seen from outside. I am afraid she is like many other characters here in that she is rotten to the core, but has a glimmer of good which shows briefly and then vanishes.


 

Hello there, all.

It is a gorgeous day here...sunny, clear, 80, no humidity. I am filing the memory away to take out in the depths of winter.

Andrea is a puzzle. I chalk it up to Ant rescuing her from her mother's plans. Did he just take her away, or did he buy her from her mother? However, I am focusing more on the tiger who does not seem to have the same loyal and tender fee!ings for Creepy McCreeperson Andrea does. Hey, Tony the tiger, I think Ant would taste GGGGREAT.Andrea does seem very interested in JP so perhaps those tender feelings will be transferred to him.
 

Oh Susy, it WOULD be poetic justice for Antonio to fall prey to Tony. Wait WHAT? Tony-o and Tony? It's gotta happen. I'd sure Luuurve to get some pictures though, for my avatars. :-)

JP may possibly be the first normal, almost attractive fellow Andrea has come in close contact with, as I am thinking everyone else has been a beast or a close associate. I would enjoy seeing Bela bright green for a few episodes. The old 'Taste of your own medicine' thingy.

Glad somebody has nice weather. Here the weather just seems to be in a bad mood.
 

Hi kirby, a Spicy recap here you got goin.

Antonio and Andrea are an odd couple.
He has virgin he's keeping for himself
But he's hired models for modeling his
Undies and for sex. He sure as hell is not saving himself for andrea, so why
Is she saving herself for him?And she
Knows he's with these other girls.
Maybe he don't like virgins, and he's
Keeping her around as his other pet.

I'd like to see what that cat eats. He
May have an appetite for human flesh
Instead of kibble&bits, chicken/Turkey
Beek/tuna. And liver.Yummy! I know them flavors. I used to buy cat Food for this elderly lady I cared for,she loved her cats. I wonder if kittycat loves human flesh. Yuck! Well it's not
A stretch to consider that, especially
After 3B's Obsession with being young
A beautiful, look what she did To her sister's face, didn't want her to be
Prettier than she was,how sick is that
?
Andrea Going through what she went through With her mother and grandma being Sold,that would mess a kids mind up.
And he keeps saying "I don't know any
Thing about the missing girls" and we
All know he does. He and Andrea both.
This has lifetime movie written all over it with A touch of Norman Bates.
Only she stabbed all the girls and fed them to kittycat. Now Yeah I know my imagination is out there. They keep us
Guessing. So why have fun with it?

Kirby it started out beautiful today in the northern regions then it got in a Bad mood. Almost menopausal, it's can't make up its mind hot and sunny, cloudy and hot ,lol. I know guys don't like that word.

I don't want bela to get jealous, she
Might do something stupid and get jp in hot water(literally) with andrea.

Emi is.....what the hell is she? What
Ever Eman forms in his mind to make her. Something in the twilight zone. I
Would not miss her at all if she just ran away.

Thank you kirby, this nicely snarkily
Done.

 

Lol Susanlynn. "Creepy Mccreeperson"ha
Haha haha,love it girl.
 

Look up.....there is a big , old , full moon tonight!

Hi, Nina. Glad that you liked Ant's new name. He is creepy and quirky.
 

From yesterday, loved your quip on Andrea Kirby: "I am afraid she is like many other characters here in that she is rotten to the core, but has a glimmer of good which shows briefly and then vanishes". Sadly true.

"then it got in a Bad mood. Almost menopausal, it's can't make up its mind hot and sunny, cloudy and hot ,lol" made me laugh Nina!

Susanlynn, love Ant's new name. Hate Ant.

RgvChick, I love summer. The humidity I can live without. Hope all are well their in the safe haven you've so lovingly created.

I tried twice to post a comment yesterday, trying two different browsers. reCAPTCHA wasn't having it. Is anyone else having trouble??

Hope Judy drops by to shed some of her wonderful sunshine here.

Diana Good Morning. Before I would let Blogger use my Google identity and had to do that Crapcha thing it would take six or eight tries sometimes if it was in a playful mood.

One of the it's favorites was street signs where it would mix in a street sign-LOOKING house number. Foiled me every time.
 

Thanks Kirby. "Crapcha" says it all - blech.

I fear I'm not too fast and new pictures keep appearing too quickly. "Roads" are roadblocks to me, hope this "loosens" up.

Diana
 

Good Monday Morning, Patio! I tried posting a comment yesterday and the Cyber Monster ate it up too.

Kirby, "I had noticed the other day that she had almost like a cult follower relationship with Antonio." I remember you mentioning that and it does seem cult-like. We know some of Andrea's past, but as Susanlynn pointed out, we don't know exactly how Antonio "rescued" her. I don't think Andrea's mother would just allow him to take her.; and she was quite young, so would she just trust him enough to have him take her away? Either way, she does seem to adore CreepyMac and helps him entice women to his devil's den. It is obvious that she is jealous of the women and even tries to dissuade them from accepting the modeling offer whenever she sees an opportunity.

Nina "Maybe he don't like virgins, and he's Keeping her around as his other pet.That could very well be! And please do let your imagination keep being out there because it sure does make for good entertainment LOL

Diana, all my kids have been safe. My visitor doesn't come by as often; and when it has been here, it hasn't been able to take anything.

I'm somewhat dreading tonight's episode. Did you all notice that look CreepyMac gave to the girl who asked him when he was going to allow them to see their families? It was quite creepy. Then when he got the call from delivery guy, he told all the girls to wait outside, but he told the one girl to wait for him in some other room. I'm hopeoing I'm wrong that he is going to hurt her for asking too many questions...and who knows what he will try to do to Bela. Fingernail-biting time!

Have a wonderful day, Patio! Hoping Judy comes by soon too :-)
 

Hi all. Thanks to you all for the recaps. Yeoman's duty. I get these too late to say much, but Colombian accentss drive me up the wall. How do they ever understand each other? The tiger is a beauty. Cannot say much for the warehoused chain linked merchandise--like he keeps everyone on a leash or in captivity, just like the tiger? But Pen's got a great office to work from. I mean, a window and a view all on her first day, too! Personally, except for the odd colors, I didn't think Pen was dressed badly. Heck, her skirt was a foot longer than Andrea's for gawd sakes. Any hoot, thanks for all that you're doing.
 

Six Fifty Four, Thanks for dropping in.
I too thought Pene was dressed more appropriately for a day at the office than anything we have seen in a TN in , Oh, about five years.

She has the goods to mix it up with Andrea, in the showoff department if she wants to, with all that play fighting with Big Mike and working out. But then anytime I don't have to see her UFC Rhonda Rousey hair, she looks so much better it is difficult to be objective.
 

Thanks Ms Chick, there's alot of material to drive the imagination out there with.

When I got my new phone, that captcha
Thing didn't show up much, and now it just started showing up again a little
. I don't mind it much just as long as my comment get published, cuz I gots a lot to say and I wants y'all to read it. Lol.
 

Welcome back, Jardinera654!

It doesn’t take much to transform Andrea into Tony-A the tigress, especially with pretty young thangs who catch CreepyMac’s eye...and especially since it was CreepyMac who hired Pene aka Liliana.
 

RGV: They need to Kidnap Andrea and maybe put her somewhere with her shots buddy JP to keep her quiet, then steal her clothes, duplicate her makeup and perfume, and send her back to McCreepy as Andrea.

Best
Disquise
Ever

JP does not have to worry about her, as McCreep is saving that desert for later, it seems. And JP will be busy chanting to himself that even if Andrea looks like Bela, it would still be cheating.
 

"Cannot say much for the warehoused chain linked merchandise--like he keeps everyone on a leash or in captivity, just like the tiger?" Exellent Jardinera.

Is Andrea really going to give in to Ant? She is shrewd and knows perfectly well the fate that will befall her once that happens. I think the only one special to Ant is Tony and even then, he wouldn't hesitate to kill him if necessary.

Diana
 

Diana: You want to bet Ricardo Matlock (Cranky Boss) will find out JP is the one talking to Simon ?

Kirby: McCreep "saving that desert for later" ?

Nina: I can settle for a 2nd Season.
 

Yay, Monday! And back to Unreality...

I hope everybody had a good weekend.

Andy, every time I drop by the patio I see your very first comment for this post; and what always catches my eye is "Bella and the Bloody Beasts" ...sounds like a 60's band to me LOL
