Amar a Muerte, 2/19/2019, Episode 74: Shakin’ Out the Laundry…Finally!



At the Carvajal house, Mateo is sporting a big smile as he thanks Eva. He can’t wait to see her stomach grow and feel the small kicks. He wonders if it will be a boy or girl…and has a list of names to choose from. He wants the baby to have her eyes and smile. They will be three now. He won’t be getting up during the night and can just imagine how cranky Eva will be. When he sees that she is not as enthused as he is, Mateo assumes it’s because of her family and tells her to let it go; it’s not her responsibility to fix everything that happens in that house. Eva assures Mateo that she will be happy, but she needs time. After Mateo leaves, Eva cries in anger and hits her stomach with the pillow. Ah, sweet Motherhood. Viewerville hopes you are in labor for eight and a half months.


Johny is at the Carvajal house when Lucía enters. After he quickly asks where she was, Lucía snaps that the only ring on her finger is the one León gave her when they married; so she has no need to give Johny explanations. Johny assumes that she was with the chauffeur; so Lucía responds that she was trying to find out who was behind all the anonymous notes. When Johny asks her to tell him what she found out, she retorts that he should ask Fabricio…since that is why Johny sent him to follow her. Johny tries to give some pathetic explanation, but Lucía walks off and won’t listen.

At the jail, Guille worries about Toño who is coughing. Toño doesn’t think he’ll feel better since he figures he will spend the rest of his life in prison. Guille goes to call for help while Toño throws up, but the detective points out that they are not a hospital and don’t have doctors on hand. The detective then tells Guille to take care of Toño while he goes to get a doctor…if there is one.

At Renata’s place, Keila tries to get Renata to drink some juice as Teo cooks. Renata can’t stop thinking about how Guille is getting along in jail. Teo doesn’t help any when he says that Guille is probably having a hard time since he is so inexperienced and frail.  Keila tells him to shut up, but Renata thinks he’s right; Guille is not prepared to live through something like that. Points for Mr. Invisible, Teo.

Johnny storms into Lucía’s bedroom and asks what happened to their communication; she has always told him everything. When he asks if she would prefer that he go to the cops so they can find out where her chauffeur is, Lucía remarks that, if she were him, she wouldn’t be calling the cops because it could turn into a long conversation where she could say so many things. Oh My Oh My, who does THAT sound like, Scumbag?  Johny is surprised that Lucía is threatening, but Lucía clarifies that he is the one who is making threats; she is only responding to him. Johny sits down and tells Lucía to go ahead and talk to the cops; she can tell them e v e r y t h i n g. Things may go well for her, but any evidence against him does not exist…though he does have a lot of evidence against her.  Um, have you checked all the batcave recordings, SmugMug?

At Silvina’s house. Pancho wants to call Montilla, but Lupita tells him not to; they had already told Beltrino they wouldn’t call the cops. Pancho wonders how she can put her daughter’s life in the hands of someone whom she has no idea where he came from or who he is. Lupita cries that Beltrino has done nothing but help her. Pancho insists that that is what makes Beltrino so suspicious; he wonders what Beltrino wants from all of this. Pancho wants to know why she is doing what Beltrino says instead of calling the cops. Lupita doesn’t know (big surprise?); she thinks the cops and the narcos are one in the same.

At Barb’s house, Beltrino chides Barb for letting LCJ leave; she should have called him. After Barb counters that she tried to call him, but he didn’t answer, LCJ arrives. Beltrino shouts that during his little escapade, El Alacrán kidnapped his daughter. They probably want to exchange his daughter for El Chino Valdez. Beltrino reminds LCJ that he is the one who has EL Chino’s body. Barb criticizes Beltrino for wanting to turn over LCJ since he is an important man. LCJ then reminds Beltrino how much he has been protecting his body, but Beltrino now believes that no one can return his body to him. Beltrino wants to turn over his body to Alacrán so his body can be killed…that way his debt will be paid and he will walk freely. When he adds “el muerte al poso, el vivo al gozo” (the dead to the hole; the living to joy), and asks what LCJ thinks of that, LCJ looks him in the eye and asks, “Excuse me?” Beltrino replies that it’s a joke; he would be incapable of doing something like that. Barb asks for reassurance that Beltrino is not going to turn over LCJ; so Beltrino assures her since it’s his body…it’s like being himself…it IS him. LCJ then asks how he plans to rescue his daughter. Beltrino scowls that they have to wait until Alacrán shows his face and orders Barb not to let LCJ leave the house. She may need a tad larger balls, crystal balls, to pull off something like that.

At the scorpion’s nest, Gancho tells Alacrán that he hasn’t been able to get any info from Juls; she is more hard-headed than the mother. Gancho then asks Alacrán if the delivery of merchandise is a go for the next day. Alacrán responds that it’s not since he has a meeting with the money launderers. After Alacrán leaves, he sends a message to Eva who is lying in bed beside Mateo but turned away from him…they will meet tomorrow. Meanwhile, Mateo gets a message from Gancho that there will be a meeting tomorrow; he will tell him about it in person.  Drats.  Why do these messages never get criss-crossed in TNs like in real life?

Next day—

Mayela and Eva walk into the police station together. Mayela apologizes for opening her mouth in front of Mateo, but Eva dismisses it and thanks her for getting them in to see Guille. The cop escorts them to see Guille; and as they pass by Renata who asks if they will be able to see Guille, Eva and Mayela completely ignore her and keep walking. Bitch bitch!

Gancho meets with Mateo at the same kitchen place. Gancho knows the time and place where El Alacrán will meet with his contact…an important person at Carvajal Group who makes decisions. Gancho then shows Mateo what the information will cost him; Mateo shakes his head and puts down an envelope of the money he has. Gancho, however, wants more…Mateo’s watch will do. After they exchange the watch for the info, Gancho starts to walk away. Mateo asks who the woman is, but Gancho only responds, “Good luck.”

At the jail, Eva and Mayela go in to see Guille. She tells him that they are doing everything possible to get him out of there. Mayela’s father made contact with a judge who will ensure he gets out of there; and Barretos is working diligently, so it’s just a matter of time. When Guille asks for Renata, Eva lies through her fangs and tells him they didn’t see her anywhere outside; and Vale is on her way. Bitch

At the Carvajal house, Lucho is back and offers to take Vale to the prison, but Vale has already made plans with Alirio. Lucho then brings up a party he had gone to and mentions that Juls was there; it seems that Sergio and Juls are finally going out together. He adds that it appears that Juls is starting to like men because they ended up in bed together.  Bitch

At the Scorpion’s nest, Alacrán tells Juls that he has something important to do, but when he returns they will spend some time together. After he tells her that she will have three hours to herself, he adds that it can be very easy...she can continue living or she can take her secret about where her father is to the grave.

Lupita is talking to Beltrino on Facetime. He tells her that he already has a way to get her daughter back. He turns his camera phone so that Lupita can see LCJ and tells her that he will use El Chino Valdez to get Juls.

Vale walks into the police station thinking about what Lucho told her. Renata interrupts her thoughts when she approaches and asks Vale if she has heard anything. Vale hasn’t heard anything; she is there since Mayela told her they could go in to see Guille. When Renata assumes that it is only family who can go in, Vale assures her that she is family. Vale has the name of the magistrate and will go get what they need to enter.  Not bitch

At Silvina’s house, Lupita asks Beltrino how he found El Chino so quickly. Beltrino responds that he has his contacts; now he just needs to exchange him for Juls. Lupita cries that the man he has is not El Chino; his name is Jacobo Reyes. Beltrino chides her for believing that man who would say anything to save his skin. What they need to do is figure out a way to send the message to Alacrán. Lupita knows where Alacrán’s house is…they took her there when they kidnapped her. Beltrino chuckles gruffly as he tells Lupita that she has given him some good news.  Wait?  No black fabric bag over the head?  That is Goon SOP.

At the scorpion’s nest, Gancho takes Juls a plate of hot food. He tells her that her mother was in that same room. As he is about to leave. Juls swears that she doesn’t know where El Chino is.

At a hotel, Mateo waits in the lobby to see who from the Carvajal company will show up to meet Alacrán. He sees a woman with long, blonde hair and takes pictures because he thinks it’s Lucía, but Nopis, not her. He then sees Eva enter and watches her in complete shock as she goes to the elevator.  Surprise, Mat.  There may be more.


 As soon as the doors close, Mateo gets in the other elevator and follows her. Once Eva is inside the room, Alacrán is all over Eva, but she pushes him away. Alacrán can’t think of anything else since she told him he was going to be a father. Meanwhile, Mateo is in the hallway trying to figure out which room Eva is in. Inside, Alacrán wants to get to it, but Eva has had a horribe day since they arrested Guille. When Alacrán offers to go to his people so they can get him out, Eva asks him not to get involved. Alacrán gets close to her and tells her he needs to make love to her as many times as he can before her stomach gets bigger; so he pulls her to the bedroom. Outside, Mateo is exasperated; he can’t find Eva.  Good thing, as Alacran would make the “Who is the Daddy” question irrelevant with one bullet.

At the jail, Renata and Vale enter to see Guille who is very happy to see them. Vale tells Guille that Renata has been there since they brought him in. Guille is amazed, but even more so when Renata tells him that she made the food they brought to him.  Vale reassures Guille that they are trying to get him out as soon as possible. They are doing everything to convince Mr. Castillo (to drop the charges). Guille makes them laugh when he tells them that he even misses Renata’s cat. Renata cries and reaches out to hold Guille’s hands, but the guard reminds her it is forbidden. Vale tries to lighten things up and tells them that this is the last time they will meet there; next time it’ll be at Renata’s house eating something delicious…and even Tlacoyo will be there. Renata then asks Guille to swear that he will withstand everything like the Caravajal he is; Guille swears.

At the hotel, Mateo goes to the bar and orders a double whiskey (that ain’t gonna cut it, Dude!). Upstairs, Eva and Alacrán have done the deed. Eva looks annoyed as Alacrán kisses her. Eva wonders why he is so intense; so Alacrán teases that he might be wanting a try at a little brother for their son....because the baby will be a machín, just like he is (oh, woopee, another pest!). When he asks what they will name the baby, Eva gets frustrated; she is fed up with all of this…she has never wanted children and especially not under these circumstances. Alacrán has been thinking about it and wants to do things right. His own father never acknowledged him…he was raised as the son of nobody…a bastard. He doesn’t want that happening to his son; so his son will carry his name…y punto (no discussion)! Eva reminds him that they had already agreed that Mateo would be the father legally since there is a possiblilty that Mateo is actually the father. Alacrán scowls that she and Mateo have been together a long time…Mateo is incapable of giving her a child. When Eva insists that Mateo is just a capable as Alacrán is, Alacrán asks who she has been with the most in the past few months. Eva counters that it doesn’t matter whether it was one time or a thousand, only one time is needed to get pregnant. Alacrán still thinks that whoever does it more has more of a chance. Eva is annoyed at the things Alacrán is saying. Even if he is the father, she can't say it to anyone. Alacrán wonders why not if they did it with so much love; he wants everyone to know that it is his son. Eva points out what people will say when they find out that her child is the child of a criminal known as El Alacrán, one of the leaders of the Cartel de la Sierra. When she adds that people will think badly that a woman of her stature is involved with a hoodlum like him, Alacrán shouts in anger and reminds her that she is also a criminal. Eva doesn’t agree since she doesn’t poison people with the crap he sells; the only thing she did was to set up some businesses in which she is investing the money from her inheritance. If people find out that they are working together, their business will come tumbling down. Alacrán then tells Eva to calm down; he doesn’t want his son to sense that they are fighting. Eva has a solution; she is going to have an abortion. Meanwhile downstairs, Mateo calls and asks Cazadilla to drop everything and get him a list of all the transactions that have been made at the company for the past two years.  Oh Boy.

In her bedroom, Lucía thinks of her conversation with LCJ. Afterwards, she calls Rosalba, her secretary and asks her to set up a meting with Barretos and Victoria (the TV gossip host). She then thinks about all the sensual moments with LCJ until Silvina walks in and asks if everything is okay. Lucía is confused and doesn’t know what to do. When Silvina assumes it has to do with LCJ, Lucía admits that she has trouble accepting that he is a criminal, a sicario. Silvina feels the same way. When Silvina shares that on two occasions when she looked at LCJ, she saw León, Lucía muses the idea.

At Barb’s house, LCJ and Barb arrive and see Beltrino who has been waiting for them. When LCJ asks what makes Beltrino think he is going to go along with his stupid plan, Beltrino pulls a gun on him.  Of course, stick with what has worked so beautifully in the past.


 LCJ daringly asks what will happen to Beltrino’s deal with the goons if he kills him. Beltrino responds that the gun is only to convince LCJ to cooperate.

At Beltrino’s house, Alicia finds an article by Plato on metempsychosis, the transmigration of souls. She then looks through some videos and finds one that she goes to view; it is a lecture about the transmigrations of souls.

At Barb’s house, Barb pushes the gun down and tells Beltrino that he is making her nervous. Beltrino chuckles and tells LCJ not to be scared; he has a plan—Plan A is that he will make Alacrán believe that he is turning him over so they can release Juls…if all goes well, LCJ has nothing to worry about; Plan B should worry LCJ…if something goes wrong, Alacrán will keep LCJ and Beltrino will take Juls…LCJ will have to fend for himself. Beltrino wonders if that is why destiny brought them together; so he could pay his daughter’s ransom with his own body. Just then, Barb points out the Beltrino has blood on his shirt, but Beltrino insists that he is well. Beltrino is going to try to contact Alacrán. In the meantime, LCJ shouldn’t try anything funny or Barb will be the one to pay the consequences. Beltrino threatens Barb that if she doesn’t keep an eye on LCJ, she will end up in ashes.

In the Carvajal kitchen, Lucía fiddles with an oragami bird as she asks Silvina if she remembers how León would spend hours making those birds. After Lucía mentions the day that there were several in her bedroom, she assumes that LCJ somehow found out that that was León’s hobby and placed them in her bedroom to upset her or make her go crazy. When Silvina suggests that it could have been to relay a message, Lucía wonders what kind of message; so Silvina poses that maybe León hasn’t left them completely, but Lucía won’t hear of ghosts…she needs solid answers. Lucía thinks that Camilo is behind everything and decides to go speak to him.

At Silvina’s house, Lupita rambles on about Jacobo not being El Chino, but now Beltrino has him and is going to exchange him for Juls. What worries Lupita is if that man is telling the truth, he might get killed. After Pancho insists that if the man has El Chino’s face, it is him, Beltrino calls Lupita; so Lupita rushes to leave. She has to go see LCJ to clear things up; she isn’t sure that turning him over to Alacrán is a good idea.

At Barb’s house, LCJ asks Barb if Beltrino is really capable of turning him over. Barb replies that she has never seen Beltrino so desperate. LCJ doesn’t blame Beltrino since it deals with his daughter…any father would do the same thing. Barb thinks about León who also has a life and thinks that this is all messed up. LCJ remarks that there is a bigger mess than El Chino, his body and the transmigrants. Barb’s jaw drops when LCJ tells her that his daughter and Beltrino’s daughter are in love with each other.  That is bigger?  Huh? Was there a time warp?


 Sitting in front of the police station, Vale thinks Guille is very lucky to have someone like Renata love him so much. After Renata shares that Guille changed her life, she asks Vale about her relationship with Juls. Vale confides that everything has ended; everything became so difficult…and their families don’t help at all. Vale thinks it’s unbelievable…you think you know someone, but you don’t; you’re not even close.

Sergio goes to Perlita’s restaurant to ask for Juls. When Perlita tells him how they kidnapped Juls from her restaurant, he asks if they have heard anything from her; so Perlita responds that Juls’s mother is trying to find out.

At the scorpion’s den, Alacrán tells Eva that she is not leaving until she has it clear—what she just said will not happen. When Eva counters that she is the owner of her body and she will decide what to do with it, Alacrán grabs her face with one hand and hisses that he is the father of that child and she will NOT abort it…she is not even going to think it again. He is going to take care of his son even if it means his life…or hers if necessary!


Meanwhile at the bar, Mateo gets a call from Cazadilla who doesn’t have the info yet. As Mateo chides him for not having it yet, he spots Eva walking out. He ends his call to take some pictures and as he does, he spots Alacrán leaving also; so he takes some pics of him too.  Finally, finally  and again, FINALLY !

Lucía is at Camilo’s house. They talk about Guille for a bit, but that is not why Lucía is there; she wants to know who Jacobo Reyes is. Cami tells her that she knows who he is, but Lucía argues that she doesn’t. Lucía wants Cami to explain to her who he is and she doesn’t want him to tell her the same nonsense that LCJ told her the day before. Cami is surprised that they saw each other yesterday. Lucía then asks him if he really dared to recommend a sicario named Macario Valdez to her or did he recommend a chauffeur named Jacobo Reyes. Cami assures her that he recommended Jacobo Reyes…who trusts her. Lucía wonders why Jacobo lies to her and tells her that he is innocent and not the monster everyone thinks he is. Cami confirms that that is correct. When she adds that Jacobo told her that he is León’s messenger, Cami asks, “And why not?” Lucía thinks it’s absurd and points out that Cami has a close relationship with Jacobo just as he had with León…and how Jacobo has a lot of info about the company and the family. When she adds that Jacobo is making some serious accusations against her and Johny, Cami wonders what she is getting at. Lucía responds that she doesn’t believe Jacobo is León’s messenger; but she is sure that he is Cami’s messenger. Lucía wants to know what Cami is trying to do. She asks him point blank is he thinks that she and Johny are León’s murderers…Cami plays it cool and won’t answer until mañana…ARGHH!

Comments:
That's the classic "keep em comin back for more" ploy. Ask the vital question and then freeze frame. Of fade out. Aaaaand we gotta wait til tomorrow. Ok!
 

Niiinaaa!! So glad to “see” you here!! How are you?? Sure do miss your humor. Oh, this TN has the best cliffhangers ever, I count the hours for the next episode.
 

Hola Nina! Happy to see you back. This story is a doozy.

RgvChick, thanks for the great recap and screencaps. Love this quip:

[Barbara] She may need a tad larger balls, crystal balls, to pull off something like that.

Things look very murky right now. And the episode, as shown here, did not include Barb pointing out that Beltrino had blood on his shirt. And that seems very important. Right now his plan is destructive. Ay yi yi, on the edge of my seat with this one. As usual!

Really suffered when Eva and Mayela dissed Renata and then had the gall to tell Guille she was not around. Soooo glad that Valentina corrected that nasty lie, and that Renata even got to kiss him before the guard intervened. And he knows that she made that special food for him. Whew. Romance is surviving. Double whew.Tclacoyo may not be happy though.

Mixed feelings about Alacrán and Eva. (sorry, ridiculous I know) But my husband never wanted children and was never happy when I was pregnant. So I'm always very touched when a man is excited about a pregnancy and the possibility of a child. And in Alacrán's case, he wants to do "the right thing" so his child will not be a bastard like he was. I know, I know, it's just a story. Do men ever really feel this way? Hope so. Actually both my sons-in-law were wonderful to my daughters during their pregnancies and adore their children, so I just answered my own question.

Boy, if I could just watch this whole story in one fell swoop I would! Always on tenterhooks until the next episode. And bummed about the music awards show on Thursday. Dang it, give us our Amar a Muerte! We're addicted!

Thanks again, RgvChick. If you hadn't decided to find recappers for this one, we'd have no place to emote, opine and carry on!

 

Thank you, Chickie. How many more episodes do we have? Does anyone know what telenovela will follow this one ?

Hi, Nina.

The look on Eva's face and her falling into the bed in the fetal position show that she is in line for a giant anvil. Alacran is disgusting. I think that his excitement about the baby is just his ego on display. Hub was always excited and happy when I was expecting , and more importantly, he was a wonderful father and grandfather.

Okay...I am awaiting the snow, sleet, and freezing rain. Local schools closed on the forecast.
 

Don't go out on the roads if you don't have to Susanlynn. Here in Columbus, the morning commute was horrible. Accidents everywhere. Fortunately our son got to work okay.
 

Judyb...not going anywhere. I am stuck in the house. However, I am looking forward to this upcoming mess getting cleaned up because I have plans with friends and family for the next three days. Best to keep busy. Stay warm and safe.
 

Good Morning, All, and thank you JudyB, Steve and Susanlynn for dropping by and startnig the discussion.

JudyB, you may have been doing some speed reading because I did include Barb telling Beltrino he had blood on his shirt--

Just then, Barb points out the Beltrino has blood on his shirt, but Beltrino insists that he is well.

--but I'm glad you brought that up because it is important. I wonder if Beltrino's butterfly got bigger too :-)

ITA, Eva and Mayela were just hateful toward Renata....well, they're just plain hateful all the time!

Steve, have you read the recap? You will find that Beltrino is devising a plan to rescue Juls, his daughter, from the kidnappers. He was with Lupita when Lupita got the call that Juls had been kidnapped.

Susanlynn, I sure am hoping for a really big anvil for Eva. I am really hoping that the baby is born and that it turns out to be Mateo's; he can raise the baby on his own. This show will end on March 11th; so we have 12 episodes to go. Don't forget that the show and MMTMF will be pre-empted tomorrow, Thursday. Your weather sounds horrible as well as JudyB's. Be safe and stay warm.
 

Great work, RGVChick.

Alacran's ego might be his undoing. He might be the one to out Eva over this, although I think he showed incredible restraint at not having boasted about her being the one he was boinking all this time.

I see unrest in the cartel, though. One of those guys might do him in before Eva is unmasked, which I would be OK with as long as Mateo and Guille learn the truth and can keep it from the public.

Tlacoyo will warm up to Guille eventually if Guille becomes a good cat dad. Real men love cats.

More later.
 

NiNaaaaa. What an added bonus today to see you here.
And Thank You RGV for a great recap.

Poor old stupid Mateo, hours ago frolicking about thinking of both gender names for 'HIS" unborn child, then seeing his wife with the real Father. Not having Cahonies as he doesn't probably saved his life this time. Beltrino would have been kicking down/shooting the hinges on doors. It is great seeing Eva begin to realize she has screwed and lied her way into a mess from which she can not screw and lie her way back out of. Hateful as he is, I can not help but halfway like Alacran, as he actually does care for Eva, and is so excited about his son to be thinking of producing a playmate asap.

Everything Johny does infuriates me more. Everything. They could show us Johny in the bathroom taking an aspirin and now it would send me into a rage. Hate him like SusanLynn hates winter. Worse. Now he has the gall to threaten Lucia with maybe just getting the popo involved? And crows that he has covered his tracks so well he is not even worried? Arrrgghhh kill him now. Kill him.

For once Lucia really looked nice in her little burgundy dress. I suppose she had to de-slut her look a notch to go see Camillo.

Why any of these people continue to even acknowledge that the negatives in their life are breathing is beyond me. Sergio spills the beans to Lunko who, of course, makes a bee line to tell Vale. Like whyyyy is he even talking to that POS? Tono is puking up his guts and Guille is concerned? Maybe as in "Hey, don't make a mess, and don't get any on me." but that is as far as it should go.

Hoppy Hump day
 

No Rgv Chick, wasn't speed reading. I learned of Barb's remark FROM YOUR RECAP. It was NOT in our episode shown here, so the local channel bumped it out for ad time? Dunno, but it was a key moment so they should not have edited that. Grateful that you noted it because it was important. Relyin' on ya, kid!
 

Kirby, glad I'm not the only one who was touched by Alacrán's joy at the idea of an hijo. And he talked about it being made with "tanto amor" so clearly, in addition to bunny rabbits, he has a tender side. As does Gancho missing his children. And I still remember the gang member (later killed) who made the sign of the cross over his pregnant wife before she went into the hospital to pretend to be Chino's wife (many episodes ago).

So there is this weird disconnect between savage and conscience-less cruelty and tenderness for defenseless creatures like bunnies, unborn babies and children. Some perplexing shades of gray.

Always end up with the same conclusion: Human beings are messy and imperfect. And so is the world we create.
 

Alacran: If he could talk Eva into taking her clothes off when they are hopping, they'd have a house full of kids. What was she wearing in the shower that time?

A big smile? OK.
 

Now that at least ONE of Mateo's eyes is opened to his dear little wifey, will he follow through bringing her down? As of now, I am sure he sees her liaison with Alacran as strictly business and does not yet suspect that she is sleeping with him. He can not yet even fathom that her unborn might be Alacran's. I hope he brings her deeds to light before that dawns on him, because that could push poor old dumbass Mateo over the edge and leave him cray cray. Then no one would listen to him.
 

Oh, sorry, JudyB, I misunderstood what you wrote. I hate it when the local stations leave out scenes or parts of scenes, especially in a TN like this one where EVERY detail seems to be critical. I still remember how, in Doble Vida, Univisioin sliced out the capture of Tonia and Frausto (aka Fauxpas). Viewerville was denied such a pleasurable moment.
 

Kirby and JudyB, it certainly was touching to see Alacran's excitement at being a father...just goes to show that many of these sicarios actually have a soft spot and loyalty to their families. Someone mentioned earlier (I think it was JudyB) that Gancho is probably ratting on Alacran because of his cold-heartedness in killing his own. Don't the Cartels usually treat their members as "family?" Now that Alacran is going to have (or thinks he is going to have) a child), will that soften him enough to be more patient with his men? Will Gancho see that and regain his loyalty to Alacran?

Mateo is treading in very dangerous waters. Gancho seems to be trigger-happy and if he changes his mind, Mateo may just end up being visited by Death Chick. Kirby, I think you're right. Mateo has Eva on such a high pedestal that he'll probably find some excuse for what she is doing. Unless he actually sees her with Alacran, he'll try to justify her actions.
 

Credit where credit is due: Chipmunk has a near perfect tail.
 

RGV--My, oh, my. Just like I don't want an episode to end, I don't want your recap to end--especially not hanging on Cami's words. Great recap. Thank you.

Before I even start on the comments, here are my favorites:

Ah, sweet Motherhood. Viewerville hopes you are in labor for eight and a half months.

Points for Mr. Invisible, Teo.

Oh My Oh My, who does THAT sound like, Scumbag?

Drats. Why do these messages never get criss-crossed in TNs like in real life?

Bitch bitch! Bitch. Bitch. Not Bitch.

Wait? No black fabric bag over the head? That is Goon SOP.

...Alacran would make the “Who is the Daddy” question irrelevant with one bullet.

....because the baby will be a machín, just like he is (oh, woopee, another pest!).

Beltrino pulls a gun on him. Of course, stick with what has worked so beautifully in the past.

Finally, finally and again, FINALLY!

Cami plays it cool and won’t answer until mañana…ARGHH!

Interesting that all the above gems don't come directly from the script. But how can we do without them. It makes all the heavy stuff seem much lighter without needing the schmaltzy on screen.

Ok, now to the comments. It's a good thing I have a free day today!


 

RGV--Check out Nina's, "I'm baaaaack" message on Monday night's comments.
 

YES! Welcome back, Nina--your "poetic" comments have been sorely missed.

JudyB--"Human beings are messy and imperfect. And so is the world we create." You are always the voice of reason and compassion. Glad it extends to bunnies.

Kirby--"Everything Johny does infuriates me more. Everything. They could show us Johny in the bathroom taking an aspirin and now it would send me into a rage. Hate him like SusanLynn hates winter." Loved the association.

RGV--"Unless he actually sees her with Alacran, he'll try to justify her actions." Reminds me of the adage the Mexicans like to use in their tns: there are none so blind as those that cannot see. Mateo will be torn between "his" unborn baby and the realization that his wife has been an unfaithful slut--all in the name of business. Nah. It'll take him awhile, but at least now he has some of the goods on her. What will he do with them.

Just an aside of mine--having grown up bi-lingual, hearing Spanish spoken with the River Plate accent of Uruguay and northern Argentina, I'm so amused when Michel gets excited, especially in his scenes with Henry, that the cadence, rhythm and even some of the pronunciation of words from his native tongue comes through. Music to my ears.
 

Hi guys nice to be back.
Susanlyn: that one that was on last year about the Law firm, it was simular to "LA law", I think that one is coming back. They advertised it yesterday. I cant pronounce the name of it But yall know the one I'm talkin about. The one where we insulted their clothes & hair? Yeah that one.
 

Yaaaa. The one with Ana Brenda, Jillian Gill, David Zappos, Altair, and later Kimmy 2 Hot from Vino.
 

Thank you, UA and Anita. I always appreciate your feedback and thoughts. Anita, thank you also for referring my to Nina's post yesterday.

Nina and Susanlynn, Por Amar Sin Ley 2 will start on March 12th...replacing Amar a Muerte.
 

I wonder what it Will take for Lucy to believe that leon's her disimbodied hubby in the hot new body of jacob. Shes not liking Jacob but she's lovin the body. Or pretending to not like
Jake.
I don't like lookin forward to some truth comin out and they answer with something that fizzles out the momentum of the truth comin out. Like
Cami waiting for tonight to answer Lucy's question. But thats how they keep us comin back. Is the daughter still hatin on stepmum?

Kirby is the weather down there Havin the yoyo affect like up here? With the
Pollen thrown in? This whole winter has sucked, weather wise anyway.

Thanks for that imfo on the next tn Ms Chick.

 

NiNa it was 90 here yesterday, and anything left outside is yellow after a day.
One day it was 46 before sunrise and 76 by ten. Crazy weather. BUT no SNOW.
The daughter Eva the older one hates step Mom. But she is pretty hateful anyway.
